Sloane manages Mark’s estate, but debt from his failed passion project (a boutique hotel) is bleeding them dry. Desperate and lonely, she posts an ad for a “house manager/contractor” to finish the hotel’s renovation.

Enter Dante (34) – handsome, rugged, with a quiet intensity and a Southern drawl. He’s a drifter with a flawless resume (forged) and a gentle way with power tools. He quickly proves invaluable. But Dante isn’t there to fix drywall. He’s a seasoned grifter who targets wealthy widows. He has inside information about Mark’s hidden assets—a secret offshore account Mark kept from everyone, including Sloane. The final scene: Dante is arrested

One night, Kenzie discovers Dante rifling through Mark’s old safe. Instead of calling Sloane, she confronts him. Expecting violence, she gets charisma. Dante tells her the truth (or a version of it): “Your father stole from my family. I’m here to take back what’s mine.” He shows her forged documents. He then makes Kenzie a proposition: Help me get the money, and I’ll give you half. You’ll never need Sloane again.

In the final act, Sloane doesn’t call the police. She decides to play a game of her own. Using her dancer’s body control and years of watching Mark negotiate, she stages a fake breakdown. She “confesses” to Dante that the money is in a safety deposit box… at a remote cabin in the woods (their old family retreat). She leads both Dante and a secretly following Kenzie into a trap. The title: “Mom 2

Meanwhile, Kenzie, spying on them, feels a volcanic betrayal. But her hatred curdles into a darker fascination. Dante notices. He shifts tactics. He starts treating Kenzie not as a child, but as an equal—an “adult in a child’s world.” He confides in her about his “tough childhood,” weaponizing her vulnerability. Kenzie begins to see Dante as an ally against Sloane.
