Missing ending explained
On the search for her mother Grace, June soon finds out that not everything is as it seems. She discovers that her mum’s boyfriend, Kevin, was a con-artist who attempted to swindle money from Grace. She also finds out her father James, who she thought was dead, is still alive and that her mum’s name isn’t really Grace. It’s a lot!
We come to find out that Grace changed her identity to escape from James, who was abusive and has been in prison for the last decade after she turned him in. Also, Grace never actually stepped foot on the plane and was instead kidnapped, thanks to Kevin and James who were actually friends from prison.

During a raid by police, Kevin is killed after being abandoned by James and June also learns that her computer was being monitored this whole time. Plus, she finds surveillance video of her mother trapped in a shed by their old home, with her then realising that her father James is behind it all.
James then turns up at June’s door, kidnapping her and taking her to where he is holding Grace hostage. He shoots and injures Grace but as James is about to leave with June, Grace stabs him with a shard of glass and he dies. Now, Grace and June are free and reunited.
The film ends with June in college, and we learn that a true crime show has been written based on what happened to her and Grace. Meta.
