The first 200 lines.
That piece doesn't seem to fit.
Why don't you try this one, Yingying?
What's supposed to be under the petals?
Flowers are like people.
They need water and nutrients to bloom.
Don't rush it, Yingying.
Yuan Mansion.
Phone call for you, ma'am.
It's the police.
We promised not to lose our temper.
Our development of--
What?
Ma'am.
Yiming. What's wrong, Yiming?
See you tomorrow.
Dad.
LAPD confirmed that all three suspects had been shot dead.
They appeared to have a direct connection
to at least nine kidnap cases in the past decade.
Direct connection?
So they were the culprits?
The official report is not yet released.
But the probability is 90 percent.
What do you mean "official," "90 percent"?
-Were they the ones or not? -Mom, let Inspector Deng--
Your entire family moved to LA 12 years ago.
-You stayed there for two years. Correct? -My company opened a branch there.
We relocated.
Your younger daughter, Cherry Yuan,
was she kidnapped four months after your arrival?
Yes, my sister was eight.
Back then, Cherry was kidnapped and killed.
The LA cops came up with nothing in two years.
Now you tell me they've killed the kidnappers.
What's the point? Cherry is still dead.
This is a DNA report from the States.
They found a girl in the crime scene's basement.
The test shows...
it's your daughter.
Cherry Yuan.
She's still alive.
What's taking so long?
Is something wrong?
Inspector Deng just texted.
The paperwork is done. They're on their way.
All you know is crying. Even when it's a happy occasion.
Happy?
I told you ten years ago, Cherry had to be alive.
Who gave up the search and moved us back to Hong Kong?
Who lost her in the first place? Was it me?
Dad.
Mr. and Mrs. Yuan.
Cherry.
Don't be afraid.
It's safe here.
I'm your sister.
Dad. Mom.
Cherry,
you're home.
You can go early today, Ho.
Yes, sir.
Miss Yuan.
Please relay to your parents,
we will need a statement from you sister.
Give her a little time, okay?
It was a long flight.
You must be tired.
Get a good night's sleep.
Do you think--
she no longer remembers us?
Take it slow. Don't rush it.
Cherry was so young back then. Given time, she will recall everything.
Cherry is so smart.
What a good job.
Tulip.
Ma'am.
Mr. Yuan is on the phone.
Cai, get some liver from Ranch market. I'm cooking.
Yes, ma'am.
You look pale. Forgot your insulin again?
-No. -Hello?
We were in the yard.
What a mess.
Surely your brother can take care of it in Hong Kong.
Are we to support him for nothing?
All right.
We won't wait up.
Didn't I tell you not to drink from the bottle, Jing?
Where's Cherry?
You left her outside alone?
What kind of a sister are you?
Cherry?
Cherry.
Cherry.
Cherry!
I'll look that way.
Cherry!
Cherry!
What happened?
Cherry is gone again.
I'm calling the police.
That was the reason the kidnappers got angry.
-You want to kill your daughter again? -Nonsense!
Enough. Look after Mom.
Cherry.
Yingying's puzzles show structural principle errors.
Her condition is typical PTSD.
Her grandma wants to put her on medication.
I didn't agree.
Don't worry. We'll take good care of her.
You're home?
Got your personal leave?
Still a tad wide.
Don't worry, we'll get it fixed.
You loved this hat back then.
So cute.
They're only clothes. What's the big deal?
-This isn't helping her recovery. -All right. You're the expert here.
It's your call. Happy?
You wanted to counsel Cherry. I was against it at first.
Then again, it could be a good thing. This is your chance to redeem yourself.
Tell them I don't feel well.
I won't be in for the next couple days.
Should we cancel the hotel room tonight?
Don't bother me with trivial matters.
This was when we went to Disneyland for the first time.
Disneyland had just opened back then.
The line was so long, we had to wait for hours.
Do you remember?
You got so scared when you saw Goofy.
Clung onto Dad's sleeve and refused to let go.
Since then, whenever you got scared, you'd always cling onto his sleeve.
That day was the happiest I've seen Dad.
That day was the happiest I've seen Dad.
Mom was so pretty, wasn't she?
Sometimes when we went out--
Mom.
Dad.
Sis.
Cherry.
Yes, it's your eighth birthday party.
We were still in Hong Kong.
We hadn't gone to LA yet.
I've read Cherry's rescue report.
But I want to know more about her kidnap case.
Go ahead and ask.
The day Cherry was kidnapped,
only the three of you were home?
Cai was there, too. Our butler at the time.
He didn't know English...
Phone call, ma'am.
but had been with us forever.
So we brought him to LA.
Did you see any strangers?
Anything out of the ordinary?
Nothing.
Nothing unusual.
We couldn't find Cherry anywhere.
Upon returning home, we found a ransom note in the mailbox.
It said they had kidnapped Cherry.
Dad rushed back and decided to call the police.
The LAPD lay in ambush at the ransom drop.
But the kidnappers didn't show.
A few days later, another note came.
It said they knew we had called the police.
They had already killed Cherry.
In the next two years, the police had no leads.
Cherry had simply vanished.
The family--
Nothing was ever the same.
Do you hate Daddy?
Do you hate me for calling the cops?
For abandoning you?
Had I known you were still alive,
I never would've--
Old Zhang's dog goes raving mad every night.
You ought to keep one. It's so remote here.
-I can barely support myself. -But it's true.
Come on in.
Don't be afraid, Cherry.
I work here.
It's a safe place.
It's only Inspector Deng.
He wants to ask us a few questions.
If I'm right, go ahead and nod.
Are they the kidnappers?
The bad guys can't hurt you anymore.
Trust me.
Were you in that basement all this time?
Did they take you anywhere else?
Did you come into contact with other victims?
Were there only three of them? No other accomplice?
Don't-- I won't scream. I won't.
What happened? I'm here. Don't be afraid.
I'm a good girl.
I'm good.
It's all in the past, Cherry.
It's all right.
Cherry. Don't be like this. It's all right.
-Mrs. Yuan. -What are you doing?
