Dr. Emerson: But you will.
Joseph Young: So, are you good friends with that Alexis girl?
Molly Hartley: No. Why?
Joseph Young: I don't know. Just wondering.
Molly Hartley: She's nice to me. That's all.
Joseph Young: Nice? I can be nice.
Joseph Young: Well, I guess I didn't peg you as the paranoid type.

Answer: Molly attempts to commit suicide to avoid having to join the Devil. Unfortunately for her, the clock strikes midnight before she can kill herself, and thus, having reached her 18th birthday, her soul now belongs to the Devil, who preserves her life. Molly, now one of the Devil's minions, has her father committed to the asylum, presumably having framed her father for her self-inflicted injuries, leaving her free to continue her life working for her new master.
