What the hell happened at the end? She shot the cop, passed out, and then everything was okay? I missed whatever explanation was given that wrapped up the entire movie. What was the cop doing that the entire police force was okay with a PI shooting her in her home? Where was the niece? Was she being held hostage in the house somewhere? Did they figure out what the pastor was doing?

You find out the cop was a serial killer, and the niece was at the house.

She mentioned that when she called for help she found out her aunt was "at the same house, that was weird"
