In the end, psychomom is about to kill the children, but adoptive dad (Joel Gretsch) shoots and kills his psycho wife. Eventually, the policeman catches on that something is amiss and secretly enters the house. Unfortunately, he clears each room as if he’s a first year cadet, and Eve is able to sneak up behind him and knock him out.
At first things seem good, but the first oddity manifests when Ethan gets his own room with a bathroom close to the master bedroom but Abby is given a bedroom far away, up in the tower of the house. From here, Abby notices a lot of strange things; there's a bed in the basement with David's name carved into the support post near it and there are many places they can't enter, including David's old bedroom. Eve and Abby get into a fight at the dinner table, and Eve slaps Abby. As Abby is washing them, she cuts her arm on broken glass that Eve purposely left in the sink for her.
She holds Abby over the railing, but Abby fights back and kicks Eve down the stairs. Eve takes a blow to the head at the bottom, appearing to be dead. Abby races to find Ethan, who she finds in a bathtub almost drowned to death. Abby pulls him out and Eve is standing behind her with a cleaver. She knocks Abby to the ground as Ben enters, and raises the cleaver.
Ethan soon becomes almost deathly ill, and Abby discovers that Eve is poisoning him, and that this has occurred to all the previous foster children who died in her care. Abby makes an attempt to escape, but Eve catches her and locks her in the attic. Their parents' friend, Ben Koch (Jason London), comes over to the house to take the kids to Six Flags, but Raymond tells him that Eve took them to an art gallery. During this time the phone rings and Eve and Abby both race to answer it. Young siblings Abby and Ethan are adopted by outwardly perfect parents Eve and Raymond Goode, only to find that that their new guardian's remote mansion is far from the idyllic abode that it...
Abby demands to be taken to the hospital, but Eve refuses and brings out a box of medical supplies. Raymond reveals that Eve was a nurse, and Eve makes the process as painful as she possibly can, including a shot, and stitches without any anesthetic. Later, Abby is seen sleeping, and Eve injects her with an unknown substance. Angie Harmon (TV's "Law & Order") and Joel Gretsch (The Legend of Bagger Vance) star in this chilling suspense thriller. After losing their mother and father in a tragic accident, teenager Abby Snow and her younger brother Ethan find a new home with Eve (Harmon) and Raymond Goode (Gretsch).
Moving into their adoptive parents' remote mansion, however, the siblings come to the shocking realization that the Goodes are not exactly what they seem, and the Snows' dream of love and security turns into a living nightmare of cruelty, hate and terror. It should be noted that the house is not made of glass (like in the first film) and no one has the last name of Glass (as in the first film).The ‘glass’ in this case is a metaphor of the children’s fragile predicament. As mom begins to do this to Ethan, it’s up to Abby to find a way to escape, but the house is always locked by a bolt, and they cannot use the phone to make outgoing calls. Plus, the policeman (Jason London) that visits the kids frequently, has no clue with what is going on and thinks the mom and dad are super people. As the mom, Eve Goode (Angie Harmon), begins to act more and more strangely, Abby discovers that this couple has adopted children before, and those kids have died mysteriously. It seems mom suffers from a form of Münchausen syndrome by proxy, slowly poisoning or causing harm to the children so she can take care of them more, until they eventually die.

After Abby tries to get away in the car again, she is stopped by Raymond, who Abby knocks out with a wrench. Ben arrives and enters the house, but is ambushed by Eve and drugged. Eve continues to chase Abby before luring her out of hiding via feigning talking to Ethan and catching her.
It is revealed that Raymond fired the gun that killed his wife, having snapped out of his blind obedience caused by love. Raymond is arrested, and Abby and Ethan are taken to the hospital. The film tells the story of Abby (Jordan Hinson) and Ethan Snow (Bobby Coleman), who lose their parents in a tragic accident and are adopted by Eve (Angie Harmon) and Raymond Goode (Joel Gretsch), two seemingly-ideal parents who have recently lost a child of their own, David.
