Things get stranger as Marissa learns that the text she received from another mom, Jenny Kaminski (Dakota Fanning), setting up the playdate was a fake. Jenny\u2019s nanny, Carrie Finch (Sophia Lillis), grew close to Milo\u2019s nanny, Ana (Kartiah Vergara), and developed a plan to kidnap him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"YWQ5JNX5AVCB3NCGZWH7HLWEZQ\">\u201cAll Her Fault,\u201d which premiered on Nov. 6, is based on Andrea Mara\u2019s 2021 novel of the same name. While it\u2019s not a true story, Mara did get the idea for the book from a real experience she had.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"P3SWPFVIHFFCJCCZ7X7TTSXDQI\">\u201cThe book was based on a real-life event whereby I went to collect my daughter from a playdate and found myself standing outside an unoccupied house,\u201d Mara said in a 2021 <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=kA4XAkDkPLE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=kA4XAkDkPLE\">YouTube video<\/a>. \u201cThe panic only lasted for a few seconds until a neighbor told me that the family had moved house a few weeks earlier, and I was just working off an old address list. It all ended very, very quickly, much more quickly than it does for Marissa in the book.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"FLKTY2JUGJD7NB54I634FSQ7OQ\">That same year, Mara penned an essay for the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.ie\/life\/was-this-some-kind-of-elaborate-kidnap-plan-andrea-mara-on-the-day-she-thought-her-daughter-had-been-taken\/40694470.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.independent.ie\/life\/was-this-some-kind-of-elaborate-kidnap-plan-andrea-mara-on-the-day-she-thought-her-daughter-had-been-taken\/40694470.html\">Irish Independent<\/a>, recalling how the heart-stopping moment with her daughter made her reflect on \u201chow much trust we place in other people when it comes to our kids.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"U6L2QOL5KVAKRPJNZFUIQ5HPBE\">\u201cHow do we decide what\u2019s safe and not safe, when it comes to our kids? And why do parents today seem to worry more than ever?\u201d Mara wrote. \u201cWe use logic (most people are not kidnappers) and standard practice (everyone else in the class does playdates) and gut instinct (I liked the mother at the coffee morning) to decide what\u2019s safe or not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"DMK5FKCX2NGCXNIUX7ARDZ7RDA\"><b>READ MORE: <\/b><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nj.com\/entertainment\/2025\/11\/landman-fans-are-fed-up-with-this-ridiculous-story-line.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.nj.com\/entertainment\/2025\/11\/landman-fans-are-fed-up-with-this-ridiculous-story-line.html\"><b>\u2018Landman\u2019 fans are fed up with this \u2018ridiculous\u2019 story line<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"HVLD2TJOSBFCXJDTLBJ7DYFE7Q\">\u201cAll Her Fault\u201d explores what happens when logic and gut instincts fail. After Milo goes missing, Marissa blames herself for not comparing the number that texted her posing as Jenny to the list of parents\u2019 contact information provided by Milo\u2019s school. <\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"G22J46OTDBBAJP3URECIQXEMKM\">In one tense scene, Marissa\u2019s husband, Peter (Jake Lacy), asks why she couldn\u2019t have just taken the time to double check the phone numbers. The unspoken injustice is that Peter rarely takes responsibility for scheduling Milo\u2019s playdates and appointments. It\u2019s all Marissa\u2019s job, and therefore \u201call her fault.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"W5QBTIT7UFHLPJMLKNNDTDHRAE\">The show\u2019s director, Minkie Spiro, told <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nbc.com\/nbc-insider\/all-her-fault-writer-creator-megan-gallagher-interview-book-changes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.nbc.com\/nbc-insider\/all-her-fault-writer-creator-megan-gallagher-interview-book-changes\">NBC Insider<\/a> that \u201cAll Her Fault\u201d is \u201cmore that just entertainment,\u201d as it shines a light on the unfair burden placed on mothers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"7ISFYVCYKRG2VMLQYPIJG7N3UU\">\u201cHere were these big takeaways, and that maybe, hopefully, people will start talking about the disparity and the social commentary that is the undercurrent,\u201d Spiro said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"BJRJLKQQPJF3NJ6KMQWI3JRDXM\"><i><b>All eight episodes of \u201cAll Her Fault\u201d are <\/b><\/i><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com?id=126006X1587338&amp;xs=1&amp;xcust=sara-donnellan%7C&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.peacocktv.com%2F%3Fcid%3D2501libgenpkpdsearch17251%26utm_campaign%3D2501libgen%26utm_source%3Dpk_ggl%26utm_medium%3Dpd_search_acq_srcpy%26utm_term%3D22934963652%26utm_content%3D183773332759_771359267246%26gclsrc%3Daw.ds%26gad_source%3D1%26gad_campaignid%3D22934963652%26gbraid%3D0AAAAACqYaJqlxsTtacYCybGX5gZ03jr8N%26gclid%3DCjwKCAiA8vXIBhAtEiwAf3B-g5--9XDcKAnzbvSi7tUyc6lf4mQ1kX98bCnIDDjbA3xOKuM644gKwhoC6VgQAvD_BwE&amp;product_category=Electronics%3EVideo%3EVideo+Players+%26+Recorders%3EStreaming+%26+Home+Media+Players\" rel=\"\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\/\/www.peacocktv.com\/?cid=2501libgenpkpdsearch17251&amp;utm_campaign=2501libgen&amp;utm_source=pk_ggl&amp;utm_medium=pd_search_acq_srcpy&amp;utm_term=22934963652&amp;utm_content=183773332759_771359267246&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=22934963652&amp;gbraid=0AAAAACqYaJqlxsTtacYCybGX5gZ03jr8N&amp;gclid=CjwKCAiA8vXIBhAtEiwAf3B-g5--9XDcKAnzbvSi7tUyc6lf4mQ1kX98bCnIDDjbA3xOKuM644gKwhoC6VgQAvD_BwE\"><i><b>available to stream on Peacock<\/b><\/i><\/a><i><b>.<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<section class=\"Stories-By-Section-Tag-module_wrapper__69Ed7 Stories-By-Section-Tag-module_nj__RFbQx\" data-gaid=\"\u00abR1npb8m\u00bb\"\/><\/div>\n<p>If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.<span> By using this site, you consent to our <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.advancelocal.com\/advancelocalUserAgreement\/user-agreement.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">User Agreement<\/a> and agree that your clicks, interactions, and personal information may be collected, recorded, and\/or stored by us and social media and other third-party partners in accordance with our <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.advancelocal.com\/advancelocalUserAgreement\/privacy-policy.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Privacy Policy.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.nj.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the Peacock mystery thriller series \u201cAll Her Fault,\u201d Marissa Irvine (Sarah Snook) lives every mom\u2019s nightmare.
