The Inmate

Brooke orders pizza, and they eat as a family. Afterward, Shane tells Brooke that his mother left the farmhouse to him; he wants to check it out the next day to see how much work it will require to make it livable. Brooke is shocked that Shane would want to live in the house where three murders took place, but he insists it was his home before it was a murder scene. Shane doesn’t want to impose on Brooke, but she reluctantly agrees to take Shane to the farmhouse.

Upstairs, Josh asks Brooke why Shane is staying with them, and Brooke explains that he is an old friend. Brooke asks if Josh likes Shane, but he seems only lukewarm. Brooke assures Josh that Shane will only be staying a few days, and he seems relieved.

Later that night, Shane suggests that he stay with Josh after school while Brooke works. Brooke hesitates but promises to think about it. Brooke has clothes for Shane in the dresser, and Shane is annoyed to realize they are Tim’s things. Shane expresses frustration that Tim took advantage of Brooke and kisses Brooke, but she pulls back. Shane apologizes, but she is the mother of his child.
