The Girlfriend Experience

Stay tight left.

Count to three, we'll fire.

Don't even do it.

Turn around.

Where's Sarah?

- Dining room. - Let's go.

Keep movin'.

Sarah Day?

Yes. This is Tom.

- I told him you were coming. - Hi.

You should probably give them your gun, Tom.

Tom said he will help us

but he will need to leave with us.

- Is Donald here? - He's on a flight.

He'll be back in about two hours.

- What's going on? - Pack your things.

Keep going, sweetheart.

What the fuck is happening?

- It's okay. - Don't fucking...

Stop!

- Stop it. Leave me alone! - Come on.

Do you have anything less distinct?

- Like sweatpants and sweatshirts? - Come on, leave me alone!

Move it.

I don't wanna go!

Do you hear me? I don't wanna go!

I'm not going!

You okay?

Make the switch in a few hours in case anyone saw us.

I hate you so much.

*

Stack two on the front.

Copy that.

Sarah.

*

Go ahead and get in the back with your mom.

She's not my fucking mom.

Let's go!

- Thomas? - Yes.

Please come with me.

Bye, Tom.

I wanna go home.

Can't go home, it's not safe.

Maybe he'd kill you, but he wouldn't kill me.

Would you mind finding another room for her?

Something a little more comfortable.

She needs to take a nap.

I'll give you a moment to look this over

but, basically this states that you will testify

against Donald Fairchild.

Follow all the steps to avoid detection

not commit any crimes, obviously.

Regularly inform your program official

of your whereabouts and in exchange

we'll you relocate to a safe house

assist you in finding appropriate employment

and assign you a US Marshal for the protection

of you and your daughter.

Yes, I'm okay with all of that

and I'd like to look into foster care for her.

Look, I know this seems hard right now

but the best thing for her in the long run

is to stay with you, a familiar family member.

She's his daughter, not mine.

Where's her biological mother?

- Dead. - He kill her?

Probably.

You were an escort?

I have you on record stating that that's how you met Donald.

- Is that correct? - Yes. Yes, that's correct.

Look, we're gonna give you a chance

to start with a clean slate.

You should think about giving your daughter

that same chance.

She's not my daughter.

Blood relative, stepdaughter, whatever.

You are the only family she has right now.

I don't think I have to state that foster care

is not a good start for a 13 year old.

Do you know what foster care is like for a child?

I do, actually, and she'll be fine.

Oh, you're the example?

You're not here, because you're a martyr.

I know exactly what you're capable of.

I did what I had to do.

Tell me and yourself whatever narrative you want.

It won't change who you are or what you did.

This is Marshal Ian Olsen.

He will be overseeing you in Placitas.

Placitas?

Yes, we feel that's a safe location for you.

That's your fucking idea of keeping me safe?

140 miles from Donald?

Look, I know it's close, okay?

But we don't have enough on Donald to make

a federal case until you testify.

So you're just gonna have to work with us.

Look, I know it seems close and I know you're scared

but as long as you listen to and trust me

you and your daughter will be safe.

She's not my daughter.

Okay, you're gonna wanna take these

and place them on a finger.

Middle or index, doesn't matter.

Is this one good?

- Any finger is. - Yeah.

That's... Oh... Here. Sorry.

Okay, now, this won't hurt.

It will just feel like tiny vibrations.

What is it?

Well, it will help you relax

and relieve any anxiety

you might feel during transition.

If you took me home right now, I would be relaxed.

Well, you're gonna have to lie.

You're gonna have to lie to a lot of people about who you are.

So, this sends a gentle, but safe electrical pulse

through your brain, and helps you focus on telling that lie

by disrupting the neuron pattern.

Now, this light, it stops your eyes from sending

that signal to your brain to be in a panic.

I'm gonna say a few sentences

and I'll need you guys to repeat after me.

Look in the light.

I am from Toronto.

- I am from... - But I'm not.

I'm from Toronto.

I am from Toronto.

I am from Toronto.

I am from Toronto.

- I am from Toronto. - I am from Toronto.

I am from Toronto.

- I am from Toronto. - I am from Toronto.

Kayla, that's a pretty name.

What made you choose that?

You told me to choose a name

that sounded like my real name.

Kayla, Katie, it's not that hard.

It's a good choice.

Can you make that thing stop?

It happens when you get angry, too.

Bria Jones.

Think you can remember that?

I think I can remember three syllables, yeah.

All right, well, it still looks a little bit

too much like your old signature, try this.

Look into the camera, please.

They should have your new license by the end of the day.

Do you have any hobbies?

You mean like pottery or something?

Well, sometimes having a hobby helps people

transition into a new life.

I have things I like doing, I guess.

Like what?

You can tell me.

- I don't know you. - You will.

- It's dark, no? - What?

I mean, you have to admit, this is... pretty absurd for me.

I'm already regretting leaving him.

Well, he was bad, Bria.

Yeah.

No, listen to me.

He... What?

No, I... I...

Just hearing the name Bria.

I'm just getting used to it.

It's been a while since I've had to come up with a...

...a fake name for myself.

It's dark.

Just admit it.

- It is dark. Yes. - Yup.

And you're gonna have to lie to a lot of people.
