The Telltale Mole

Warning: Spoilers
Claire Beauregard is, to put it mildly, an over-protective mom to her daughter Maddy. At a young age, little Maddy was left alone for a moment in the library, and Claire swooped down on a man escorting her out of the facility. The man was apparently only concerned about a lost child and taking her to the "office." But it looked to Claire as if the man was leaving the building and heading to his car. She pressed charges, the man lost his job, and he eventually committed suicide.

Lucy Underhill was the beloved daughter of the man who took his life. Years later, it is payback time, as Lucy befriends a teenage Maddy, then seeks vengeance on the entire Beauregard family.

The devious Lucy/Gina has masterminded a plan to rob the Beauregards of all of their cash assets and flee to the Bahamas. She is assisted by her lover, a financial officer, who knows her as Jennifer.

Lucy/Gina/Jennifer stabs to death Maddy's beau Tucker, then shoots her father Sean, who lies in a coma in the hospital. Her next target is Claire, and she plants a bomb in the fireplace of the Beauregard home. The race is on for Claire to save her own hide and bust Lucy/Gina/Jennifer in the process.

Lucy/Gina/Jennifer had not counted on the years of experience Claire had in over-protecting her daughter. The quick-thinking Claire pays a visit to the widow-mother of the man she had accused in the library. The woman, Vanessa, is now a drunk. But Claire spots a clue in a family photo that depicts a child with a mole on her left cheek, the very same mole that appears on the cheek of the woman Claire takes to be Gina.

When all appears to be lost, it is the undying love of a mother for her daughter that it is the film's theme. And such a love will triumph in the end, even if the mom is a little over-protective.
