Chase is a chronically depressed and emotionally exhausted mother who has had a recent breakdown. Her husband hires Elizabeth to help Chase with their two boys and running the house. Chase unleashes a barrage of verbal battering, she despises Elizabeth and treats her terribly. Elizabeth takes it all until one night when she breaks and blows up at Chase. This forces Chase's depression to begin to abate when she sees Elizabeth is on her side after all.It doesn't help Chase that her husband is angry at her for her breakdown and her oldest son swears and yells about everything. Elizabeth has had a hard life herself and she doesn't deserve anything that Chase is dishing out! 3 1/2* (I liked this movie)
