Angel of Mine

Lizzie is devastated by the tragic loss of her newborn daughter, Rosie, who perished in a horrific hospital fire. The fire claimed the lives of twelve mothers and babies, leaving Lizzie to navigate the painful aftermath of her daughter's death.

Seven years after the tragedy, Lizzie is still struggling with her grief while raising her son, Thomas. She shares custody of Thomas with her ex-husband, Mike, which complicates her emotional state.

During a birthday party for one of Thomas's friends, Lizzie meets a young girl she believes to be Rosie, igniting hope and obsession within her. The girl's name is revealed to be Lola, leading Lizzie to connect with Lola's parents under false pretenses.

Lizzie's obsession with Lola continues to grow, blurring the lines between reality and her fixation. This uncontrolled obsession leads to severe consequences, including job loss and forgetting to pick up her son, Thomas.

Concerned for Lizzie's well-being, Mike, along with Lizzie's parents and therapist, confronts her about her deteriorating mental state. They warn her that if she does not seek treatment, Mike will pursue full custody of Thomas.

In a moment of desperation, Lizzie insists that she believes Rosie survived the fire and is actually Lola. This conviction drives her to take irrational actions in pursuit of the truth, showcasing her fragile mental state.

Determined to prove her theory, Lizzie tries to collect DNA evidence from Lola's belongings. Claire, Lola's mother, quickly realizes Lizzie's invasive actions and repeatedly warns her to stay away from her family.

Lizzie sneaks into a going-away party for Claire's family, hoping to uncover details about Lola. However, she gets caught and hides in Lola’s closet, revealing the extent of her obsession while also risking confrontation.

During a frantic struggle, Claire spots Lizzie trying to escape with a hairbrush that she intended to use for DNA testing. The confrontation escalates, highlighting Lizzie's desperation to prove her theory about Lola's true identity.

In an emotional moment, Claire reveals to Lizzie that she saved Lola after her own baby died due to smoke inhalation during the fire. This revelation, which is overheard by Bernard and the children, changes everything for both mothers.

After Claire's shocking confession, Lizzie shares the gravity of the situation with Mike. He expresses deep regret over the entire ordeal, realizing how fragile the lines of motherhood can be in such tragic circumstances.

Following the revelations, Claire faces serious legal consequences as she is arrested on charges of child theft, kidnapping, and custodial interference. This outcome leaves an indelible mark on the families involved.

In the aftermath, Lizzie prepares for a visit with Lola, surrounded by the support of her family. The dynamics of her relationship with Thomas and the future interactions with Lola hang in the balance.

As Bernard brings Lola to meet Lizzie, a poignant moment occurs when Claire exchanges a heartfelt glance with Lizzie from a distance. This silent understanding marks the beginning of Lola's reunion with her biological family.
