- [Woman] Taylor, baby, you weren't supposed to see that.
- [Taylor] Why can't I go?
- Taylor you're too young.
- [Taylor] Do you ever wish you could do whatever you want
and not have to answer to anyone?
- What the fuck?
- You do not walk away from me.
You do not get to decide who you are.
I do.
- I can do better, I'll do better.
- Then do it.
(groaning)
(eerie music)
- Psst.
I bet they're all dead.
- Why would you say that?
- Who goes missing in this shit hole of a town?
It's been a week.
Either they all ran away
or they're all dead.
Tsk.
(bell rings)
- You know this is the girls bathroom right?
- Not today Ally.
- Ally Anne.
Only my friends can call me Ally.
Friends, useless gutter trash.
With any luck,
she'll go missing next.
(bell rings)
- Why do you always look so sad?
Like unhappy, not pathetic.
- What do you mean?
- We've had the same homeroom for three years.
I've watched your mannerisms.
Ever since those kids went missing,
you've been even more...
- It's scary, I don't know.
- Afraid you might be next?
(car horn)
- [Woman] Taylor.
- See you tomorrow.
Last day before summer.
World is our oyster.
- New friend?
- [Taylor] Maybe.
- So your birthday's coming up.
You leaning more towards red velvet or carrot?
- Surprise me.
- It's your 17th.
You can at least try and act like it means something.
- Does it?
- Of course, Taylor.
- I don't care.
- Taylor, if you're struggling--
- Don't give me another victim speech mom.
Not today.
- So your mother's been telling me
that you've been feeling a little regretful?
- Hey.
Let her breathe.
- She wanted this.
- She wanted to make you proud.
All right, she wanted acceptance.
- You saw her face.
She loved every second of it.
(sighs)
(dramatic music)
- [Taylor Voiceover] Well, I've never been one to keep
a diary but recently I've find words might be the only
foundation between what is real and what isn't.
They, whoever they are, say you learn what you live.
Nature versus nurture.
But then what of free will?
I mean, when all you know is fire
are you destined to spend your life watching the world burn?
