Seeing Clarissa fire at Kathryn, her three sons were too scared to move closer, fearing she might shoot them too, ignoring their family bond. They stayed by Holden's side, waiting for the ambulance to take him to the hospital. Kathryn, with tears in her eyes, looked up at Clarissa, who stood by the stair railing. Breaking free from Audrey's hold, she ran forward, knelt down, and begged, "Mom, please, don't make any more mistakes. I'm your unfilial daughter-take it out on me, but let the hostages go. Put down the gun and come down." She pleaded desperately, "Mom, think about the kindness your sisters showed you, the regrets you've had all these years. Think about me, my brothers, your grandchildren. Please, turn back, Mom!" Tears streamed down Kathryn's face. She couldn't bear to see her mother continue down this destructive path.
