 Trust can be as transparent as glass. When Ruby Baker s (Leelee Sobieski) parents (Rita Wilson & Michael O Keefe) are killed in a car accident, her and her brother, Rhett (Trevor Morgan), must travel to Malibu, to live with Terrence and Erin Glass (Stellan Skarsgård & Diane Lane), their former neighbors. At first, Ruby and Rhett are comfortable and happy. Ruby is making new friends at school and Rhett is getting more video games and flashy toys then he could possibly know what to do with! But, when Ruby speaks to her family s estate lawyer (Bruce Dern), he tells her that her parents have left her and Rhett $4 million. Suddenly, Ruby begins to notice odd behavior from Terry and Erin.
