The Fosters

Previously on "The Fosters"...

What do you want me to say? I didn't take the truck.

I checked his prints. They don't match the ones on the steering wheel.

I saw the two of you kiss after the party.

The only way to protect everyone is to separate you and A.J.

I'm wondering why you felt the need

to take out a restraining order against Brandon.

- That was expunged. - I can't make a recommendation on her adoption

until I investigate this further.

While I am, it's not appropriate for Callie to be in your care.

You look amazing.

Stop saying that. Really, stop.

Look, these earrings... too much, right?

- Yes? - Yeah, maybe something a little smaller.

- Yeah, smaller would be better. - Hoops? No.

Oh, wait. Try these here.

Oh, jeez, I can't even believe I'm going on this date

and leaving you here alone. There's something really wrong with that.

I'll be fine, all right? You're just nervous.

I'm not nervous. I'm terrified.

I haven't been on a date

since the Bush administration... the first one.

"Don't go blowing something up that could be great

just because you're scared." You told me that.

- Did I say that? - Yeah.

I'm gonna start listening to me.

All right, there. Studs, yes?

- Definitely studs. - Fantastic.

Okay, so, Brandon, tomorrow the social worker

is going to interview you and Callie separately.

- What am I supposed to say? - Well, the truth...

that after the restraining order you didn't see Callie

until we brought her home from Girls United.

And that you've had a strictly brother-and-sister,

platonic relationship ever since.

So then all of this will be over and Callie can come home?

And that idiot judge will let us adopt her?

Yeah, that's the plan. A.J., I spoke with your probation officer.

And he wants to meet with you tomorrow.

You told him I didn't steal any car, right?

Yeah, absolutely. I explained the whole mess.

It's just that Mike has a foster care class

tomorrow all day, so I'm gonna take you.

And what are doing about finding that douchebag that sold us a stolen car?

- Mariana. - I'm gonna ask Captain Roberts

- to put a robbery detective on the case. - Really?

- No. - We're out, like, $1400.

Got what you deserved, if you ask me.

Well, I didn't ask you.

And now you have to share your car with us, so you lose too.

Even if we did catch the guy, you know, I seriously doubt

that you're ever gonna see a penny of that money again, love.

What, so he gets away with it,

just like that guy with the hit-and-run that almost killed us?

Oh, but we didn't die, so I guess that's not a priority either.

- Hey. - Your mom has worked very, very hard

to try to find the person responsible for that, Mariana.

Unfortunately, justice is not always served in this world.

Yeah, just ask Callie.

Okay, listen. I know that this is

very upsetting for all of us,

but this is simply a temporary setback.

Callie's gonna be back home very soon.

And for now, she's safe and sound at Rita's, okay?

Who is it?

It's Chloe. Is Rita home?

I'm sorry, she's not here.

Who are you?

Oh, I'm Callie. I'm staying with Rita. But she went out.

When will she be back?

I'm not sure. She's kind of on a date.

A date? Really?

Well, that's not gonna last very long.

Do you mind if I wait inside?

It's okay. I'm her daughter.

Oh. Yeah, of course. Come in.

Hmm.

Well, that's new.

So how do you know my mother?

Um, I was in Girls United for a little while.

Oh, you're one of her lost girls?

Well, she's just fostering me for a few days

until my regular foster parents get their license renewed.

What happened to their license?

Did they do something wrong?

No.

I kind of did.

- Drugs? - No.

Boys?

A hottie like you... I bet it was a boy, right?

Um, maybe I should call Rita, let her know you're waiting.

I'll do it.

There.

Forewarned.

You mind if I use the bathroom?

- Thanks. - No, of course.

Well, I guess she's not coming, so I'm gonna go.

Oh, okay. Well, it was nice to meet you.

Well, that was a bust.

Hi, Mom.

What are you doing here?

Just getting to know my new foster sister.

I'm not gonna give you any money.

Okay, first of all,

I'm not here to ask you to give me any money.

I'm here to offer you an opportunity to invest.

- It's a sure thing. - What is it this time?

A food truck. The guy who owns it

is upside down and he needs cash fast.

I mean, he's practically giving it away.

And food trucks are all the rage right now.

I mean, these guys are making money hand over fist.

Really? So why is he selling it?

Because he mismanaged.

And you're gonna fix that? You don't know anything

about the food business. You don't even cook.

Why can't you ever believe in me?

I have believed in you, Chloe,

to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars,

all of which you wasted.

Because you sabotage everything that I do.

Are you off your medication?

Oh, here we go.

Whenever I have any legitimate feelings,

I must be off my meds.

You just want me checked out so I don't have to feel

the pain that you caused me.

Okay, listen, I do not want to do this.

Too bad I'm not a juvenile delinquent.

You need to go now.

Oh, wait. Callie, was it?

Let me tell you something about my mother

Saint Rita, savior of lost souls,

as long you aren't her own daughter.

Thanks again for nothing, Mom.

I just can't believe we're in the same boat

with Callie again.

I know she's fine with Rita,

but I just can't help feeling like this is all our fault.

You mean my fault?

What? You told me not to get the restraining order.

I had it expunged.

I never thought about paper copies

lingering in some social worker's file.

- Well, why would you? - Because I should have.

I should have, Lena.

It's all gonna be all right.

So, honey, we need to schedule therapy for the week.

Is Friday okay for you?

Can we skip a week?

We just... we have so much going on.

We always have a lot going on.

Okay, well, I cannot focus on us

until we get our daughter back. I'm sorry.

Okay, I'll let Dr. Melvoy know.

Okay.

A restraining order, huh?

What, were you, like, stalking her?

No.

Not that it's any of your business.

Yo, what's your beef with me, huh?

I came clean about talking to my brother, and taking your dumb baseball.

Yeah, after I caught you. Doesn't change the fact that you lied.

Oh, you never lie?

You never took something that wasn't yours?

You're not even gonna try to get along with him?

He's not gonna be here much longer.

No, then he's gonna move in with Mike and be your foster brother.

Look, I don't need him giving me the third degree about Callie.

I feel bad enough as it is.

You are over her, right?

Yes.

- You're sure? - Yes.

Look, I already had my chance to get back with her.

I said no.

Wait, when was this?

Uh, when Robert said

he wasn't gonna sign the papers,

Callie was freaking out and...

Well, you two better get your stories straight.

If the social worker finds out about this,

we'll really lose her for good.

Well, it doesn't look like she took anything.

I'm so sorry. I had no idea...

How could you have known?

I would have told you, but I didn't know she was talking to me.

So she takes things?

Yeah.

She doesn't consider it stealing.

She feels she's entitled because I was such a horrible mother.

She did look through your mail.

Oh.

What?

Yep, a check's missing.

I never saw her touch your checkbook.

Well, she's pretty tricky at that.

I mean, don't worry about it.

It's not the first time I've had to cancel

a check that Chloe stole.

You said she's... she's on meds?
