3
00:00:25.192 --> 00:00:27.486
Owen just texted about getting
together tonight to celebrate.

4
00:00:27.611 --> 00:00:28.320
Again?

5
00:00:28.403 --> 00:00:29.571
Making up for all those years

6
00:00:29.696 --> 00:00:30.906
in the law school library.

7
00:00:31.031 --> 00:00:32.658
I wanted to redo
my resume tonight.

8
00:00:32.741 --> 00:00:35.202
Yeah, you totally should,
I mean who's gonna hire

9
00:00:35.327 --> 00:00:37.621
a summa cum laude loser
like you?

10
00:00:37.704 --> 00:00:39.164
Grades aren't everything.

11
00:00:39.248 --> 00:00:40.624
Amy, when you can measure
your single status

12
00:00:40.707 --> 00:00:42.125
by the length of your leg hair,

13
00:00:42.251 --> 00:00:43.919
it's time to stop sleeping
with your law books

14
00:00:44.002 --> 00:00:46.630
and live a little.
Like that. Mm.

15
00:00:47.839 --> 00:00:48.840
Are you saying yes to tonight?

16
00:00:48.966 --> 00:00:50.801
‐Okay. Fine.
‐Okay. Good.

17
00:00:50.926 --> 00:00:52.553
‐Race you to the car?
‐Okay.

18
00:00:52.678 --> 00:00:53.720
Ha!

19
00:00:57.599 --> 00:00:59.142
Hey!

20
00:01:01.353 --> 00:01:05.649
It's just me. Never grew so big
as this year.

21
00:01:05.732 --> 00:01:06.942
Trade you for a stick of butter.

22
00:01:07.025 --> 00:01:08.860
Oh, Chickie,
you don't have to trade me.

23
00:01:12.322 --> 00:01:16.201
Ooh! Don't you look cute.

24
00:01:16.326 --> 00:01:18.328
I never looked that good
even when I looked good.

25
00:01:18.412 --> 00:01:20.414
Well, looks aren't everything,

26
00:01:20.539 --> 00:01:22.374
unless you're a sunflower,
of course.

27
00:01:22.457 --> 00:01:27.254
Oh, honey, if the world
was blind, you'd still impress.

28
00:01:27.337 --> 00:01:28.839
Here's your stick of butter.

29
00:01:28.964 --> 00:01:31.925
Enjoy the party.
You work so hard.

30
00:01:33.510 --> 00:01:35.345
‐Mm.
‐Oh!

31
00:01:35.470 --> 00:01:38.432
‐There we go.
‐Thank you.

32
00:01:38.515 --> 00:01:41.476
Please leave a message
after the tone.

33
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:44.855
Oh, so I guess I have to make
an appointment with my daughter

34
00:01:44.980 --> 00:01:46.815
just to get a return call
these days

35
00:01:46.940 --> 00:01:49.234
now that she's a fancy lawyer.

36
00:01:49.318 --> 00:01:52.571
Don't forget we have
a spa day planned, so call me.

37
00:01:52.696 --> 00:01:54.197
Oh, it's mama.

38
00:01:56.366 --> 00:01:59.703
‐Thanks for the butter, baby.
‐Anytime, Chickie.

39
00:02:13.467 --> 00:02:16.011
‐Who's making a toast?
‐Watch and learn.

40
00:02:16.136 --> 00:02:18.764
I'm doing it. Uh, excuse me.

41
00:02:18.847 --> 00:02:21.475
Excuse me.

42
00:02:21.600 --> 00:02:22.893
Thank you.

43
00:02:23.018 --> 00:02:26.563
To the greatest class
to ever graduate.

44
00:02:30.108 --> 00:02:31.985
Which probably
would not have been possible

45
00:02:32.069 --> 00:02:33.820
without Amy's study guides.

46
00:02:33.945 --> 00:02:36.490
And to all the difference
we're gonna make in this world.

47
00:02:36.615 --> 00:02:37.866
Okay, okay, okay.

48
00:02:37.991 --> 00:02:39.409
How about a round of shots
for these

49
00:02:39.534 --> 00:02:42.996
bad‐ass, slightly‐unfit,
soon‐to‐be lawyers

50
00:02:43.080 --> 00:02:44.539
taking over the world?

51
00:02:44.665 --> 00:02:45.916
Hell, yeah, Demetri,

52
00:02:45.999 --> 00:02:47.376
taking the bar was easier

53
00:02:47.459 --> 00:02:48.960
than taking
your CrossFit classes.

54
00:02:49.086 --> 00:02:51.046
Oh, wow. Dagger.

55
00:02:51.171 --> 00:02:52.964
You know, I didn't see you girls
at the gym.

56
00:02:53.090 --> 00:02:54.675
We were too busy
training our brains.

57
00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:57.344
Wow, wow, okay. Well...

58
00:02:57.469 --> 00:03:00.806
To‐to, to training your brains.
Here.

59
00:03:00.931 --> 00:03:03.100
‐Cheers.
‐Cheers.

60
00:03:05.894 --> 00:03:07.479
‐Mm.
‐Mm.

61
00:03:07.562 --> 00:03:09.272
Oh, Amy, did you not like it?

62
00:03:09.356 --> 00:03:10.816
I‐I'd be happy to get you
something else.

63
00:03:10.941 --> 00:03:13.443
Oh, I'm, I've just had enough.
Thank you so much.

64
00:03:13.527 --> 00:03:15.904
‐Sure.
‐I'll drink hers, don't worry.

65
00:03:18.031 --> 00:03:19.700
She's had too many.

66
00:03:27.582 --> 00:03:29.292
I'll see you tomorrow afternoon.

67
00:03:29.376 --> 00:03:31.545
‐Okay, it's time to go.
‐Bye.

68
00:03:33.588 --> 00:03:36.675
Do you wanna hang out sometime?

69
00:03:39.803 --> 00:03:41.638
Um, no.

70
00:04:22.846 --> 00:04:24.806
Chickie, is that you?

71
00:04:32.522 --> 00:04:34.357
Why'd you have to say no?

72
00:05:40.799 --> 00:05:42.926
911. What's your emergency?

73
00:05:43.009 --> 00:05:45.387
I, I've been raped.

74
00:05:48.348 --> 00:05:50.767
So you met five days ago?

75
00:05:52.018 --> 00:05:54.145
Uh, um, yeah. Um...

76
00:05:54.271 --> 00:05:57.649
So a bunch of us
were celebrating.

77
00:05:57.774 --> 00:06:00.151
Um, well, some of us
just graduated‐‐

78
00:06:00.277 --> 00:06:03.071
‐From college?
‐Uh, law school.

79
00:06:03.196 --> 00:06:05.490
‐Nice.
‐Congrats.

80
00:06:05.615 --> 00:06:08.994
‐So was he also a law student?
‐No, no.

81
00:06:10.996 --> 00:06:13.874
He owns a gym

82
00:06:13.999 --> 00:06:16.459
that a bunch of the guys

83
00:06:16.585 --> 00:06:20.005
I graduated with train at.

84
00:06:20.088 --> 00:06:23.717
He was at the bar.
He, he bought us some shots.

85
00:06:23.842 --> 00:06:25.302
So you knew him.

86
00:06:26.636 --> 00:06:28.972
‐No.
‐Were you drinking alcohol?

87
00:06:29.097 --> 00:06:32.976
Y... I had some wine,
but no shots.

88
00:06:33.059 --> 00:06:35.645
Why not?

89
00:06:35.729 --> 00:06:40.066
I had enough. I, I said so.

90
00:06:40.191 --> 00:06:41.735
Was he offended?

91
00:06:42.861 --> 00:06:44.362
N‐no.

92
00:06:45.906 --> 00:06:47.157
He smiled.

93
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:49.367
But he knew where you lived?

94
00:06:52.329 --> 00:06:53.872
He...

95
00:06:55.206 --> 00:06:58.793
He was, um, in the taxi

96
00:06:58.919 --> 00:07:02.130
with another friend of mine
who dropped me off.

97
00:07:04.633 --> 00:07:06.551
He asked me out, but I said no.

98
00:07:06.676 --> 00:07:08.470
Then what did he say?

99
00:07:09.638 --> 00:07:11.890
He smiled, and then...

100
00:07:12.807 --> 00:07:13.516
Then?

101
00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:18.313
W‐when, when he was attacking me

102
00:07:18.396 --> 00:07:21.483
he, he was smiling.

103
00:07:25.779 --> 00:07:27.113
So this report will be filed

104
00:07:27.197 --> 00:07:30.200
and someone from the division
will be in touch.

105
00:07:30.325 --> 00:07:33.328
‐That's it?
‐Uh, for now, yes.

106
00:07:33.411 --> 00:07:35.080
But don't you have to, um‐‐

107
00:07:35.205 --> 00:07:38.750
‐Oh, well, because you knew him.
‐No, I didn't know him!

108
00:07:38.833 --> 00:07:42.045
He means, because you know
the identity of the,

109
00:07:42.170 --> 00:07:44.172
your rapist,

110
00:07:44.297 --> 00:07:46.508
we don't need to do
a rape kit is all.

111
00:07:48.051 --> 00:07:50.971
‐So you'll arrest him, then?
‐We'll get his statement.

112
00:07:51.054 --> 00:07:54.015
You know,
innocent until proven guilty.

113
00:07:54.140 --> 00:07:56.142
Uh, is there anyone else around

114
00:07:56.267 --> 00:07:59.270
who might have seen him
come in tonight?

115
00:07:59.354 --> 00:08:01.690
No. I live alone.

116
00:08:01.815 --> 00:08:04.985
And my neighbor Chickie
doesn't hear very well.

117
00:08:05.110 --> 00:08:08.238
Um, ma'am, your, um,

118
00:08:08.363 --> 00:08:10.991
your ear is bleeding. Here.

119
00:08:12.492 --> 00:08:13.660
This...

120
00:08:18.331 --> 00:08:21.501
So, um, you'll...

121
00:08:23.837 --> 00:08:27.716
So you'll, you'll step up patrol
now that he's been in here?

122
00:08:27.841 --> 00:08:29.300
We'll put in a request,
but unless

123
00:08:29.384 --> 00:08:30.885
there's an actual threat‐‐

124
00:08:31.011 --> 00:08:33.304
He just raped me.

125
00:08:33.388 --> 00:08:36.683
R‐right. I meant, again.

126
00:08:37.726 --> 00:08:39.978
Home Depot sells security doors.

127
00:08:44.065 --> 00:08:47.152
Oh, my God! What the hell?

128
00:08:49.696 --> 00:08:51.614
Where's the ambulance?

129
00:08:53.742 --> 00:08:55.869
Where is the ambulance?

130
00:09:00.540 --> 00:09:02.751
That's a three‐hour drive.

131
00:09:02.876 --> 00:09:04.586
We need to see the extent
of the injury

132
00:09:04.669 --> 00:09:06.880
to the genital area
to complete the rape kit.

133
00:09:07.005 --> 00:09:09.299
Like I said, I'm sorry,
but our colposcope camera

134
00:09:09.382 --> 00:09:11.259
isn't working tonight.

135
00:09:11.342 --> 00:09:12.886
You need to go
to Lincoln Memorial.

136
00:09:13.011 --> 00:09:16.097
You only have a 72‐hour window
to complete the testing.

137
00:09:16.181 --> 00:09:19.225
This is insanely unacceptable.

138
00:09:19.309 --> 00:09:22.395
Here's a prescription for
any STDs he may have given you.

139
00:09:22.479 --> 00:09:25.148
Take the whole course
just to be sure.

140
00:09:25.273 --> 00:09:28.526
I'm sorry, but that's all
we can do for you here.

141
00:09:31.029 --> 00:09:32.822
That's fine, Letty.

142
00:09:32.906 --> 00:09:34.991
The police officer said
I don't need a rape kit.

143
00:09:35.075 --> 00:09:38.536
‐I just wanna get out of here.
‐Okay.

144
00:09:54.302 --> 00:09:55.720
Amy.

145
00:10:01.101 --> 00:10:04.771
Oh, honey, it's okay.
You should go home, okay?

146
00:10:04.854 --> 00:10:07.774
You've got that big interview
in Boston tomorrow.

147
00:10:07.857 --> 00:10:11.694
I'll move it.
I'm not leaving you.

148
00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:14.781
Thank you.

149
00:10:25.041 --> 00:10:26.668
Hello.

150
00:10:26.793 --> 00:10:30.130
Oh, my Lord in heaven,
what happened to you?

151
00:10:30.255 --> 00:10:32.257
You go bungee jumping
or something stupid?

152
00:10:32.340 --> 00:10:35.677
I guess I might have to move
our facials to another day.

153
00:10:35.802 --> 00:10:38.304
Um, I was attacked, mom.

154
00:10:38.388 --> 00:10:40.473
What?

155
00:10:40.598 --> 00:10:44.769
That did not happen.
Who hit you?

156
00:10:44.853 --> 00:10:47.689
Lord, not my baby girl's face.

157
00:10:49.858 --> 00:10:53.570
I've got to find something
to cover up this mess

158
00:10:53.695 --> 00:10:56.197
'cause you can't go out
looking like this.

159
00:10:56.322 --> 00:10:58.324
Mom, mom, stop. Please.

160
00:11:02.328 --> 00:11:04.289
I was raped.

161
00:11:04.372 --> 00:11:06.499
Raped? By who?

162
00:11:06.624 --> 00:11:08.293
‐Did you know him?
‐I didn't know him.

163
00:11:08.418 --> 00:11:10.712
Well, did the police arrest him?

164
00:11:12.297 --> 00:11:13.590
They're investigating. Um...

165
00:11:13.673 --> 00:11:16.551
I have to go to
the prosecutor's office tomorrow

166
00:11:16.676 --> 00:11:18.803
'cause they decide
what the charges will be.

167
00:11:18.928 --> 00:11:21.264
Oh, my poor sweet baby.

168
00:11:23.474 --> 00:11:25.101
Are you, are you sure

169
00:11:25.185 --> 00:11:28.354
you wanna go through
with this court case and all?

170
00:11:31.232 --> 00:11:32.775
Everyone will know.

171
00:11:34.277 --> 00:11:36.279
What were you wearing?

172
00:11:38.198 --> 00:11:40.408
If...if I was a man,

173
00:11:40.533 --> 00:11:43.161
would you ask me that question?

174
00:11:43.203 --> 00:11:45.496
I don't, I don't know.

175
00:11:47.624 --> 00:11:51.211
Sand 2, that's who you are.

176
00:11:51.294 --> 00:11:55.381
Macy's sells a concealer
that was mixed by the angels.

177
00:11:55.465 --> 00:11:58.843
I'm gonna send some over here
and it'll arrive

178
00:11:58.927 --> 00:12:01.137
before I get back
from the Galveston pageant.

179
00:12:01.221 --> 00:12:02.388
Wait, you're leaving town?

180
00:12:02.472 --> 00:12:05.975
Well, they want me to be
a guest judge and I said no,

181
00:12:06.100 --> 00:12:07.352
but it's
the five‐to‐eight‐year olds.

182
00:12:07.477 --> 00:12:08.519
They know I can't resist

183
00:12:08.645 --> 00:12:11.564
those precious little
princesses.

184
00:12:11.689 --> 00:12:14.150
And the money didn't hurt.

185
00:12:14.234 --> 00:12:16.319
Oh, sweetie, don't be blue.
Come on.

186
00:12:16.402 --> 00:12:20.198
By the time I get back,
you'll be all healed up,

187
00:12:20.323 --> 00:12:24.410
we're gonna have a spa day
and have those facials

188
00:12:24.535 --> 00:12:28.122
and then we're gonna put
all this business behind us.

189
00:12:28.206 --> 00:12:30.667
Okay, now, I'm gonna make you
a nice cup of coffee.

190
00:12:30.750 --> 00:12:32.168
Here, you practice in the mirror

191
00:12:32.293 --> 00:12:35.213
'cause you're gonna need this
for the next seven days.

192
00:13:12.208 --> 00:13:14.919
The average sentence
is 11 years for rape

193
00:13:15.003 --> 00:13:16.296
if we get a guilty verdict.

194
00:13:16.421 --> 00:13:19.257
Now, we'll meet again
as soon as formal charges

195
00:13:19.340 --> 00:13:20.591
are officially filed.

196
00:13:20.675 --> 00:13:23.511
Okay. So when will that be?

197
00:13:23.594 --> 00:13:25.847
There's a huge backlog
of rape cases.

198
00:13:25.972 --> 00:13:27.390
The court will notify
the accused

199
00:13:27.473 --> 00:13:28.850
of your intent to file.

200
00:13:28.975 --> 00:13:30.977
Now, it could take
up to six months

201
00:13:31.102 --> 00:13:34.397
for the case to come to trial
while we investigate.

202
00:13:34.480 --> 00:13:36.941
Six months?

203
00:13:37.025 --> 00:13:40.236
Yeah, well, says here

204
00:13:40.361 --> 00:13:42.488
you passed the bar
with flying colors.

205
00:13:42.572 --> 00:13:47.076
You know even he has the right
to a fair trial.

206
00:13:47.160 --> 00:13:51.331
At this point, unfortunately,
it's his word against yours.

207
00:14:15.855 --> 00:14:17.940
Hey, there, tattletale.

208
00:14:19.400 --> 00:14:21.486
Alone again, I see.

209
00:14:25.448 --> 00:14:28.326
Love that. What is that?
Chocolate chip?

210
00:14:28.409 --> 00:14:29.786
Mm.

211
00:14:29.869 --> 00:14:32.330
You need to back off
talking smack about me.

212
00:14:32.455 --> 00:14:34.248
Drop the charges.

213
00:14:34.374 --> 00:14:36.542
You know, last time
was a romantic walk in the park

214
00:14:36.667 --> 00:14:38.795
compared to what we'll do
this time.

215
00:14:41.756 --> 00:14:43.633
We're soul mates, you and I.

216
00:14:57.855 --> 00:14:59.649
I'll see you at home, honey!

217
00:15:06.447 --> 00:15:09.325
Do you need a moment?
You look white as a ghost.

218
00:15:09.409 --> 00:15:10.868
No ....!

219
00:15:16.290 --> 00:15:18.418
I'll get this filed right away.

220
00:16:19.937 --> 00:16:22.231
Everyone in Boston
is so excited right now.

221
00:16:22.315 --> 00:16:25.485
I mean,
the Red Sox are rocking it!

222
00:16:25.610 --> 00:16:28.321
What is going on with you?
Why are you still cleaning?

223
00:16:28.404 --> 00:16:32.033
‐I'm pregnant.
‐What? How can you be pregnant?

224
00:16:32.158 --> 00:16:34.535
I thought the doctor in college
said you couldn't get pregnant.

225
00:16:34.619 --> 00:16:37.079
All those things
you dealt with the cysts?

226
00:16:40.416 --> 00:16:42.043
Oh, my God.

227
00:16:53.596 --> 00:16:55.473
And you think it's his?

228
00:16:57.683 --> 00:16:59.101
Yes.

229
00:17:00.937 --> 00:17:02.438
Maybe take another test.

230
00:17:02.522 --> 00:17:04.815
I've read sometimes
there can be a false positive.

231
00:17:04.941 --> 00:17:05.942
I took two.

232
00:17:13.491 --> 00:17:15.493
How can I be pregnant?

233
00:17:22.833 --> 00:17:24.126
Are you okay?

234
00:17:24.210 --> 00:17:28.130
It's like a cramp,
like a little ping.

235
00:17:28.256 --> 00:17:30.758
Well, maybe, you know,
nature will take over

236
00:17:30.841 --> 00:17:33.386
and you won't have to do
anything about it.

237
00:18:18.598 --> 00:18:21.225
And you had a job
during law school, right?

238
00:18:21.309 --> 00:18:22.810
You worked
for the attorney general?

239
00:18:22.893 --> 00:18:24.770
‐Yes.
‐What was your area of focus?

240
00:18:24.854 --> 00:18:26.272
Initially it was delivering

241
00:18:26.355 --> 00:18:28.232
a still piping‐hot
venti quadruple shot,

242
00:18:28.357 --> 00:18:30.735
but blessedly it transitioned
into drafting docs

243
00:18:30.860 --> 00:18:33.529
for women's issues,
mostly, domestic violence

244
00:18:33.654 --> 00:18:37.283
in a department
that I‐I helped reestablish.

245
00:18:37.366 --> 00:18:38.993
Well, if there are
no other questions...

246
00:18:39.076 --> 00:18:40.620
We can...

247
00:18:40.703 --> 00:18:41.829
Oh. Okay, really?

248
00:18:41.912 --> 00:18:43.414
Because there's a great deal
more that

249
00:18:43.539 --> 00:18:45.499
I didn't include on my resume.
I studied abroad.

250
00:18:45.625 --> 00:18:47.627
And, um,
my‐my dissertation was about

251
00:18:47.710 --> 00:18:50.796
international fluid
policy change and then I‐‐

252
00:18:50.921 --> 00:18:52.715
Will you accept the position?

253
00:18:54.634 --> 00:18:57.428
We've been following you
since your second year at Emory.

254
00:18:57.511 --> 00:18:59.597
We know you're being courted
by another firm.

255
00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:02.725
We'd ask, instead of you having
a second interview with them,

256
00:19:02.808 --> 00:19:04.226
you join us.

257
00:19:05.478 --> 00:19:07.730
Wow! Yes. Yes!

258
00:19:07.855 --> 00:19:10.441
Hey. Anything stopping you
from starting on Monday?

259
00:19:10.524 --> 00:19:13.486
We've got a civil case pending
we could really use you on.

260
00:19:13.569 --> 00:19:15.988
Nothing, nothing at all.
Count me in.

261
00:19:16.072 --> 00:19:18.532
Terrific.

262
00:19:18.658 --> 00:19:22.787
Now, this part I like to call
the little hurricane.

263
00:19:22.870 --> 00:19:26.540
And this here is the eye of it.

264
00:19:28.834 --> 00:19:30.586
That is your baby.

265
00:19:34.840 --> 00:19:36.717
You are back on track!

266
00:19:36.801 --> 00:19:38.928
The universe is pulling for you.

267
00:19:39.011 --> 00:19:40.805
And about time.

268
00:19:40.888 --> 00:19:43.015
And no one deserves it
more than you,

269
00:19:43.140 --> 00:19:45.768
especially after
all that horrendous‐ness.

270
00:19:45.851 --> 00:19:47.228
Is that a word?

271
00:19:48.354 --> 00:19:50.398
So I have a cousin
who got pregnant

272
00:19:50.523 --> 00:19:52.733
and didn't want to be and...

273
00:19:53.859 --> 00:19:55.945
I wanna keep the baby, Letty.

274
00:19:56.028 --> 00:19:57.363
You do?

275
00:19:58.739 --> 00:20:01.075
I mean, you've worked so hard,
all that school,

276
00:20:01.200 --> 00:20:02.952
and now this dream job.

277
00:20:03.035 --> 00:20:05.287
You sleep
with your law books, Ames.

278
00:20:06.706 --> 00:20:08.833
It just...

279
00:20:08.916 --> 00:20:11.419
It feels kind of impulsive.

280
00:20:11.502 --> 00:20:15.464
I know. I must seem crazy.

281
00:20:15.548 --> 00:20:18.467
I'm so furious with myself
that I couldn't fight him off.

282
00:20:18.509 --> 00:20:23.305
And, and my body
just felt broken, dead.

283
00:20:25.015 --> 00:20:27.560
And now
I'm growing this little life.

284
00:20:27.685 --> 00:20:30.062
It's very much
a part of me already.

285
00:20:30.146 --> 00:20:32.565
But isn't it gonna be
a reminder of‐‐

286
00:20:32.648 --> 00:20:34.817
Strength.

287
00:20:34.900 --> 00:20:37.820
That he took so much from me.

288
00:20:37.903 --> 00:20:40.990
And now this baby, I feel like

289
00:20:41.073 --> 00:20:43.659
I'm not broken, after all.

290
00:20:43.784 --> 00:20:45.244
I have hope now.

291
00:20:46.662 --> 00:20:49.832
I've always believed
in a woman's right to choose,

292
00:20:49.957 --> 00:20:51.333
even my own.

293
00:20:53.627 --> 00:20:54.754
I just...

294
00:20:55.671 --> 00:20:57.298
I have to keep it.

295
00:20:58.174 --> 00:21:01.886
Well, then,
congratulations, mama.

296
00:21:02.011 --> 00:21:04.972
This is going to be
the greatest and hardest thing

297
00:21:05.097 --> 00:21:07.183
you'll ever have to do.

298
00:21:11.854 --> 00:21:14.023
She says you threatened her
in the grocery‐store parking lot

299
00:21:14.148 --> 00:21:16.233
on Main Street and 5th.

300
00:21:18.235 --> 00:21:21.030
Sir, I‐I saw her and said hello.

301
00:21:21.155 --> 00:21:23.032
You know, to be polite.

302
00:21:23.157 --> 00:21:24.408
She's just some woman
who flirted with me

303
00:21:24.492 --> 00:21:25.701
that night at the bar.

304
00:21:25.826 --> 00:21:27.536
And then you dropped her home
in a taxi?

305
00:21:27.661 --> 00:21:29.538
Yeah, sure. Her and her friend.

306
00:21:29.663 --> 00:21:31.832
I live close by,
and they were pretty...

307
00:21:31.957 --> 00:21:33.793
Well, they were
pretty inebriated.

308
00:21:33.876 --> 00:21:35.127
So I saw them safely home.

309
00:21:35.211 --> 00:21:36.962
And that's the last
you saw of 'em?

310
00:21:37.046 --> 00:21:39.465
Yes, sir.
Sorry I can't tell you more.

311
00:21:39.507 --> 00:21:41.717
No, that's great. Thank you.

312
00:21:43.052 --> 00:21:44.762
It's a nice badge.

313
00:21:48.808 --> 00:21:51.435
Just gonna get
some more color added to mine,

314
00:21:51.519 --> 00:21:52.812
freshen it up a little bit.

315
00:21:52.937 --> 00:21:54.814
Yeah, wife wants me
to get rid of it.

316
00:21:54.897 --> 00:21:57.525
She's got a bee in her bonnet
since she's pregnant.

317
00:21:57.608 --> 00:21:59.985
About as far along
as Ms. Thompson.

318
00:22:03.030 --> 00:22:05.991
Well, you know what they say,
babies change everything.

319
00:22:14.124 --> 00:22:15.793
My baby girl, look at you!

320
00:22:15.876 --> 00:22:18.504
Don't you just look
so much better!

321
00:22:18.629 --> 00:22:23.133
It's like night and day. You're
just positively a‐glowing!

322
00:22:23.217 --> 00:22:27.596
‐How are you, mom?
‐I am relieved!

323
00:22:27.680 --> 00:22:29.139
Alright, now let's have
a sip of champagne

324
00:22:29.265 --> 00:22:31.433
and celebrate your new job!

325
00:22:32.351 --> 00:22:34.061
Hey, mom, um,

326
00:22:34.186 --> 00:22:36.647
I'm not gonna drink today, okay?

327
00:22:36.730 --> 00:22:39.024
It's okay if we have
a little sip in the afternoon.

328
00:22:41.026 --> 00:22:42.486
No, it's, um...

329
00:22:43.696 --> 00:22:46.323
It‐it's because I'm pregnant.

330
00:22:47.199 --> 00:22:49.869
You're what?

331
00:22:49.994 --> 00:22:52.663
My God, since when
did you even have a boyfriend?

332
00:22:52.746 --> 00:22:55.583
And when were you gonna
introduce me to him?

333
00:22:56.250 --> 00:22:57.793
Um...

334
00:22:57.877 --> 00:22:59.587
No, I...

335
00:22:59.670 --> 00:23:02.423
I got pregnant from the rape.

336
00:23:03.591 --> 00:23:05.718
Oh, my God.
You can't be serious.

337
00:23:07.887 --> 00:23:09.805
I'm‐I'm keeping it.

338
00:23:12.099 --> 00:23:13.934
Now, look.

339
00:23:14.018 --> 00:23:18.355
I know that you have always been
a head‐strong little thing.

340
00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:21.859
But a child from that man?

341
00:23:23.027 --> 00:23:24.570
Every time you look at it,

342
00:23:24.695 --> 00:23:26.655
you're gonna see his face.

343
00:23:26.780 --> 00:23:30.492
This baby is the only thing
keeping me

344
00:23:30.576 --> 00:23:31.952
from the dark place
he took me to.

345
00:23:32.036 --> 00:23:35.122
Oh, give me an F‐in' break.
This isn't Super Soul Sunday.

346
00:23:35.205 --> 00:23:38.834
This is your damn life!
What about...

347
00:23:38.918 --> 00:23:40.961
Oh, God. What about your career
and your future?

348
00:23:41.045 --> 00:23:43.005
What‐what about your reputation?

349
00:23:44.798 --> 00:23:47.468
And what man in his right mind
is gonna want a woman

350
00:23:47.593 --> 00:23:49.887
with a child born from rape?

351
00:23:51.722 --> 00:23:54.099
I'm not thinking
about a man right now, mom.

352
00:23:54.183 --> 00:23:56.143
You're not thinking. Period.

353
00:23:56.268 --> 00:23:58.771
You can't have this kid.

354
00:24:01.231 --> 00:24:02.775
Yes, I can.

355
00:24:04.068 --> 00:24:05.319
And I will.

356
00:24:05.402 --> 00:24:09.615
You are not just destroying
your reputation...

357
00:24:09.698 --> 00:24:11.867
you're destroying mine, too.

358
00:24:20.125 --> 00:24:21.919
I've made my decision.

359
00:24:26.048 --> 00:24:27.591
Oh, my God.

360
00:24:29.885 --> 00:24:31.762
This can't even...

361
00:24:31.845 --> 00:24:34.765
I am more than happy
to leave this nightmare.

362
00:24:34.848 --> 00:24:36.600
Have you thought about
the future

363
00:24:36.684 --> 00:24:38.936
when people ask
who the daddy is?

364
00:24:40.312 --> 00:24:42.481
That poor child.

365
00:24:53.409 --> 00:24:54.868
Hey, guys,
what are you doing here?

366
00:24:54.994 --> 00:24:56.745
Owen paid Demetri
a little visit.

367
00:24:56.829 --> 00:24:59.164
Yeah, and told him what
a sick son‐of‐a‐bitch he was.

368
00:24:59.289 --> 00:25:00.958
‐You went to his gym?
‐Yes.

369
00:25:01.041 --> 00:25:04.628
Look, I hated myself for letting
him join us that night, okay?

370
00:25:04.753 --> 00:25:06.130
But he said
that he didn't touch you

371
00:25:06.255 --> 00:25:08.382
and that you have him confused
for someone else.

372
00:25:08.465 --> 00:25:10.259
And he got real pissed.

373
00:25:10.342 --> 00:25:12.886
He could barely
keep his .... together.

374
00:25:12.970 --> 00:25:15.389
‐Guys, he's got a scary temper.
‐And scary lawyers.

375
00:25:15.514 --> 00:25:17.224
Yeah.
Brown Melway and Wallace.

376
00:25:17.349 --> 00:25:18.267
It's gonna be a dirty fight.

377
00:25:29.528 --> 00:25:31.613
As if you had a choice.

378
00:25:33.449 --> 00:25:34.616
Hey.

379
00:25:35.409 --> 00:25:36.744
Are you okay?

380
00:25:37.536 --> 00:25:40.497
Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.

381
00:25:43.959 --> 00:25:45.002
‐Oh, no.
‐What?

382
00:25:45.127 --> 00:25:46.378
The Boston firm
wants a second interview.

383
00:25:46.503 --> 00:25:47.421
I have to fly out tonight.

384
00:25:47.504 --> 00:25:48.797
Hey, that's great!

385
00:25:48.922 --> 00:25:51.133
I can't go. I can't leave you.

386
00:25:51.216 --> 00:25:54.845
No, you have to go. Absolutely.
Go get 'em, girl.

387
00:25:54.970 --> 00:25:56.930
Okay, I'll only be gone
for, like, two days.

388
00:25:57.014 --> 00:25:58.140
Owen, you'll stay with her,
right?

389
00:25:58.223 --> 00:25:59.141
‐Oh, you guys.
‐Yeah.

390
00:25:59.266 --> 00:26:01.310
I'm fine. Really. Seriously.

391
00:26:01.393 --> 00:26:02.478
Good luck.

392
00:26:02.561 --> 00:26:04.188
I'm good.

393
00:27:48.375 --> 00:27:50.127
He is stalking me, Jim.

394
00:27:50.210 --> 00:27:52.212
Why is the restraining order
hearing taking so long

395
00:27:52.337 --> 00:27:55.382
and why isn't he answering
to the rape charge first?

396
00:27:55.507 --> 00:27:57.342
I'm waiting for a hearing date.

397
00:27:57.467 --> 00:28:00.929
It'll come up faster
than the rape case.

398
00:28:01.013 --> 00:28:05.184
Amy, you're doing great.
Just follow the law.

399
00:28:05.267 --> 00:28:08.395
What does it matter if I follow
the law when he doesn't?

400
00:28:08.520 --> 00:28:10.647
Eventually he has to.

401
00:28:10.731 --> 00:28:12.316
"Eventually."

402
00:28:14.610 --> 00:28:16.028
You know, the truth is,

403
00:28:16.153 --> 00:28:18.071
it doesn't matter
how many locks I install

404
00:28:18.197 --> 00:28:19.531
or how careful I am.

405
00:28:19.656 --> 00:28:20.991
There is no legal protection

406
00:28:21.074 --> 00:28:23.577
that anyone
can seem to offer me.

407
00:28:23.702 --> 00:28:27.539
You know that, he knows that.

408
00:28:27.664 --> 00:28:29.875
He isn't afraid of anything.

409
00:28:33.003 --> 00:28:36.089
If it was
one of your daughters...

410
00:28:36.173 --> 00:28:38.175
He'd already be dead.

411
00:28:42.012 --> 00:28:43.472
So you've been having
these cramps

412
00:28:43.597 --> 00:28:45.641
at least three times a day?

413
00:28:45.766 --> 00:28:48.227
Yeah. Is the baby okay?

414
00:28:48.352 --> 00:28:49.978
Perfectly fine.

415
00:28:50.103 --> 00:28:53.106
You, however, have a shortening
cervix that requires rest.

416
00:28:53.190 --> 00:28:55.317
So you'll need to avoid
all strenuous activity

417
00:28:55.400 --> 00:28:56.318
from here on out.

418
00:28:56.443 --> 00:28:57.653
Oh, no. I just got a new job.

419
00:28:57.778 --> 00:28:58.987
So I can't‐‐

420
00:28:59.112 --> 00:29:02.699
Amy, we can't risk
a premature birth.

421
00:29:02.824 --> 00:29:04.826
There's no choice, I'm afraid.

422
00:29:06.995 --> 00:29:09.873
Now, how about we find out
the baby's gender

423
00:29:09.998 --> 00:29:12.167
so that you can be thinking
about names

424
00:29:12.292 --> 00:29:14.461
while you're resting?

425
00:29:14.544 --> 00:29:17.130
‐Okay.
‐Okay.

426
00:29:17.214 --> 00:29:20.300
Sir, like I told the detective,
I don't even know her name.

427
00:29:20.342 --> 00:29:22.886
The only time I met her
was at this bar I hang out at

428
00:29:22.970 --> 00:29:24.888
with some friends of hers
at law school.

429
00:29:25.013 --> 00:29:26.181
How do you know them?

430
00:29:26.306 --> 00:29:29.643
I run a gym where they do
a 3‐D competition.

431
00:29:29.726 --> 00:29:32.187
It's CrossFit,
boxing and weights.

432
00:29:33.146 --> 00:29:35.482
It's a good thing they're smart.

433
00:29:35.565 --> 00:29:36.566
Why do you say that?

434
00:29:36.692 --> 00:29:39.444
Well, they basically flunked.

435
00:29:39.528 --> 00:29:42.489
I mean, they couldn't save
a fly, let alone themselves,

436
00:29:42.572 --> 00:29:45.409
but I passed them anyway.

437
00:29:45.534 --> 00:29:47.160
So you lied?

438
00:29:47.244 --> 00:29:51.248
Look, what can I say?

439
00:29:51.373 --> 00:29:53.250
I'm a nice guy.

440
00:29:53.375 --> 00:29:55.836
Do nice guys have to tell you
they're nice guys?

441
00:29:57.796 --> 00:29:59.631
So you're saying you couldn't
possibly be the father,

442
00:29:59.756 --> 00:30:02.050
that you didn't force sex
on Amy?

443
00:30:02.175 --> 00:30:05.262
Like I told you,
I don't even know her.

444
00:30:06.638 --> 00:30:08.682
That's sad.

445
00:30:08.807 --> 00:30:12.477
Some women get so vindictive
when they get rejected.

446
00:30:12.602 --> 00:30:15.439
You rejected her?
Is that what you did?

447
00:30:16.815 --> 00:30:19.693
It's pretty easy
to prove paternity.

448
00:30:19.818 --> 00:30:22.195
Have at it.

449
00:30:22.321 --> 00:30:24.990
I'll only be working from home
for a few weeks

450
00:30:25.073 --> 00:30:27.034
and I can phone in
to all of the meetings.

451
00:30:27.159 --> 00:30:28.744
I'm not the only single
working mother out there.

452
00:30:28.869 --> 00:30:30.579
I know you also said that you‐‐

453
00:30:30.662 --> 00:30:32.122
But I wasn't pregnant
from a rape,

454
00:30:32.205 --> 00:30:35.584
starting a new job
straight out of law school.

455
00:30:35.667 --> 00:30:37.586
A police detective
came here today

456
00:30:37.669 --> 00:30:40.756
looking to corroborate this was
your place of employment.

457
00:30:40.839 --> 00:30:42.132
Why didn't you tell us?

458
00:30:42.257 --> 00:30:44.509
It's not relevant
to what I do here.

459
00:30:44.634 --> 00:30:47.637
It didn't feel like it was
an appropriate thing to share.

460
00:30:47.721 --> 00:30:50.265
I feel like
I have more than delivered...

461
00:30:50.349 --> 00:30:54.144
Yes, so far you have,
a‐and I admire your fortitude,

462
00:30:54.269 --> 00:30:57.397
but I'm a little concerned how
you're gonna continue to do so

463
00:30:57.522 --> 00:31:00.400
with a high‐risk pregnancy
and a court case ahead.

464
00:31:00.525 --> 00:31:03.320
You've nothing to worry about,
I can assure you.

465
00:31:08.784 --> 00:31:11.495
Now, don't forget to drink
plenty of water

466
00:31:11.536 --> 00:31:13.246
and get lots of sunlight.

467
00:31:13.372 --> 00:31:15.457
You're basically a house plant
with more complicated emotions.

468
00:31:15.540 --> 00:31:20.379
Are you sure
you're okay with this?

469
00:31:20.504 --> 00:31:23.423
Yes, yes! Chickie knows to check
in, and Owen is standing by...

470
00:31:23.507 --> 00:31:25.467
And I'll be home every weekend
to look after you.

471
00:31:25.550 --> 00:31:29.763
Yeah, um, so I've got this, um,
work call in a few minutes.

472
00:31:29.846 --> 00:31:32.307
Look at you,
taking care of your career!

473
00:31:32.391 --> 00:31:33.767
Uh..

474
00:31:33.850 --> 00:31:37.062
I'm gonna tell them
that I'm leaving.

475
00:31:37.187 --> 00:31:40.190
I already have a case
that I'm forced to prove.

476
00:31:40.315 --> 00:31:41.983
I don't wanna have
to prove myself to anyone else,

477
00:31:42.067 --> 00:31:44.027
especially a board room
full of doubters.

478
00:31:44.152 --> 00:31:48.407
Ames, this is the best offer
from the firm of your dreams.

479
00:31:48.532 --> 00:31:49.616
Yeah, dreams change.

480
00:31:49.699 --> 00:31:53.495
I'm gonna do some casual PI work
for this guy that I know.

481
00:31:53.578 --> 00:31:55.872
It'll just be less stressful
till the baby is born.

482
00:31:55.997 --> 00:31:58.333
You were top
of our entire class,

483
00:31:58.375 --> 00:32:01.253
and now you're gonna
take some low‐end thing?

484
00:32:01.336 --> 00:32:04.965
‐If it were me, I'd keep the‐‐
‐It's not you, Letty. It's me.

485
00:32:06.550 --> 00:32:07.676
Okay.

486
00:32:07.801 --> 00:32:10.929
Take pictures in Boston.
Lots of them.

487
00:32:12.681 --> 00:32:13.598
I love you.

488
00:33:05.066 --> 00:33:08.528
The thing about some women,
pretty as they are...

489
00:33:10.822 --> 00:33:13.992
you can never really trust
what they're gonna do next...

490
00:33:18.955 --> 00:33:22.209
‐Ah!
‐Shh! Shh!

491
00:33:23.877 --> 00:33:27.047
So you get knocked up,
and you blame me?

492
00:33:29.007 --> 00:33:31.426
Oh, it could have been
so many others.

493
00:33:32.719 --> 00:33:35.138
Why are you acting so crazy?

494
00:33:35.263 --> 00:33:36.473
Huh?

495
00:33:37.682 --> 00:33:40.477
Oh, Amy. Amy, Amy.

496
00:33:43.772 --> 00:33:47.108
We're both moving on.
Understand?

497
00:33:48.109 --> 00:33:50.570
I'm telling you this
for the last time.

498
00:33:50.695 --> 00:33:53.907
Drop all the charges. I go away.

499
00:33:54.032 --> 00:33:55.242
No.

500
00:33:56.743 --> 00:33:59.913
I told you
about using that word.

501
00:33:59.996 --> 00:34:01.998
I'll kill it, too,
so you'd better listen.

502
00:34:02.082 --> 00:34:04.292
‐No!
‐Yeah?

503
00:34:04.334 --> 00:34:06.503
Unless you want
to make it up to me.

504
00:34:06.628 --> 00:34:07.879
Huh? Come here.

505
00:34:09.965 --> 00:34:11.800
Help! Help!

506
00:34:14.302 --> 00:34:15.804
Ah! No!

507
00:34:15.929 --> 00:34:17.639
Ah, ah!

508
00:34:19.683 --> 00:34:21.059
Call the, call the police!

509
00:34:21.184 --> 00:34:23.853
The hell with them,
I'll take him myself!

510
00:34:23.979 --> 00:34:25.480
Oh! Hey...

511
00:34:32.028 --> 00:34:33.738
‐You okay?
‐Yeah.

512
00:34:35.615 --> 00:34:37.117
It's gonna be alright.

513
00:34:38.952 --> 00:34:40.370
So we've checked your perimeter,

514
00:34:40.495 --> 00:34:43.290
and it looks like
all of your locks are working.

515
00:34:43.373 --> 00:34:44.958
Are you sure
you didn't leave anything open?

516
00:34:45.041 --> 00:34:47.294
Weren't you guys
supposed to be watchin' her?

517
00:34:47.335 --> 00:34:50.630
You gotta go a long way to find
anyone more useless than you!

518
00:34:50.714 --> 00:34:52.674
Hey, have you considered moving?

519
00:34:54.342 --> 00:34:57.887
I'm waiting for court dates
on both cases

520
00:34:58.013 --> 00:34:59.598
and I'm on bed rest,

521
00:34:59.681 --> 00:35:02.767
so moving for me right now
is not an option.

522
00:35:02.851 --> 00:35:04.811
How about you guys do your job

523
00:35:04.936 --> 00:35:07.814
and move him
into a two‐by‐four cell?

524
00:35:07.939 --> 00:35:09.608
What in hell's takin' so long?

525
00:35:09.691 --> 00:35:12.611
I'll make sure that a patrol car
keeps an eye on her.

526
00:35:12.694 --> 00:35:14.112
And him!

527
00:35:16.990 --> 00:35:19.034
He's threatened me with a gun
in my own home

528
00:35:19.159 --> 00:35:22.746
and now he's still asking me
to drop the charges.

529
00:35:22.871 --> 00:35:26.333
Okay, look, we work with a few
private security companies tha‐‐

530
00:35:26.416 --> 00:35:29.002
You know I can't afford that.

531
00:35:29.127 --> 00:35:30.962
Okay, how do you feel about
arming yourself?

532
00:35:31.046 --> 00:35:33.673
No. Not for me.

533
00:35:33.757 --> 00:35:36.968
Then remember,
we are making some progress.

534
00:35:37.052 --> 00:35:38.345
We got the date for the hearing

535
00:35:38.470 --> 00:35:39.888
on the restraining order
all set.

536
00:35:40.013 --> 00:35:41.431
What about the rape case?

537
00:35:41.514 --> 00:35:44.809
Amy, out of every
1000 sexual assaults,

538
00:35:44.934 --> 00:35:47.646
995 perps walk free.

539
00:35:47.729 --> 00:35:51.483
If we're gonna get this guy,
we have to check every box.

540
00:35:51.608 --> 00:35:55.278
How many boxes do we have
to check before I end up in one?

541
00:36:11.002 --> 00:36:12.754
Mom, please leave.

542
00:36:12.837 --> 00:36:15.382
I need you to listen to me.

543
00:36:15.507 --> 00:36:18.718
Can you please talk to me?
I am your momma.

544
00:36:20.720 --> 00:36:21.888
Thank you!

545
00:36:26.518 --> 00:36:28.770
Oh, Lord, it is so unpleasant.

546
00:36:28.853 --> 00:36:31.815
It is a girl, mom,

547
00:36:31.856 --> 00:36:34.734
and, and her name is Maddy.

548
00:36:34.818 --> 00:36:39.072
It isn't too late.
Dr. Bird has offered to help.

549
00:36:39.197 --> 00:36:41.533
‐Even at this point.
‐What? Who?

550
00:36:41.658 --> 00:36:43.410
You remember him,
tall drink of water,

551
00:36:43.535 --> 00:36:46.162
lived at the big house
at the end of the cul‐de‐sac?

552
00:36:46.246 --> 00:36:48.123
So well‐respected.

553
00:36:48.206 --> 00:36:50.125
Look, I‐I am happy
to pay for it.

554
00:36:50.208 --> 00:36:52.502
Then we don't have
to talk about this ever again.

555
00:36:52.627 --> 00:36:56.798
Mom, please listen to me
when I say this.

556
00:36:56.923 --> 00:36:59.467
I am keeping this baby.

557
00:36:59.509 --> 00:37:01.970
Can you please just tell me
one thing,

558
00:37:02.053 --> 00:37:04.973
because I must be missing it
myself!

559
00:37:05.056 --> 00:37:07.642
Just what
are you trying to prove?

560
00:37:07.767 --> 00:37:10.603
That I am a mother, mother.

561
00:37:42.093 --> 00:37:43.928
It's okay,
you'll never make it in time.

562
00:37:44.012 --> 00:37:46.806
Don't worry, I remember
all the breathing stuff, coach.

563
00:37:46.931 --> 00:37:48.391
‐And pushing...
‐Yes.

564
00:37:48.516 --> 00:37:51.186
Ames, I love you. I'm‐I'm there
even though I'm not there, okay?

565
00:37:51.311 --> 00:37:53.730
I know you are. I love you, too.

566
00:37:53.855 --> 00:37:56.149
‐Kick some ass.
‐You kick some ass.

567
00:37:56.232 --> 00:37:58.651
You're gonna be great.

568
00:37:58.735 --> 00:37:59.861
Is there anyone else
you wanna call

569
00:37:59.986 --> 00:38:02.155
before we get this party
started?

570
00:38:02.238 --> 00:38:03.448
No.

571
00:38:04.824 --> 00:38:06.868
Okay, mama, here we go.

572
00:38:34.145 --> 00:38:38.900
I will always do my very best
for you, my fierce baby girl.

573
00:38:46.991 --> 00:38:49.953
Wow. Hey.

574
00:38:52.372 --> 00:38:54.290
This is your Aunty Letty.

575
00:38:54.374 --> 00:38:57.293
Oh! Hey.

576
00:38:57.377 --> 00:39:00.296
Could she be more perfect?

577
00:39:00.380 --> 00:39:03.883
She's breathing on her own...

578
00:39:05.260 --> 00:39:08.054
Gosh, I can't express
how much I love her.

579
00:39:09.347 --> 00:39:11.266
She's beautiful.

580
00:39:12.350 --> 00:39:14.060
Both of you are.

581
00:39:15.019 --> 00:39:16.020
Her name is Maddy.

582
00:39:17.856 --> 00:39:19.899
Well, Maddy...

583
00:39:19.983 --> 00:39:23.820
I got you the best that
Boston Airport has to offer.

584
00:39:23.862 --> 00:39:24.821
Oh.

585
00:39:27.407 --> 00:39:30.034
‐How are you feelin' today?
‐Good.

586
00:39:30.159 --> 00:39:31.244
You have
a little bit of paperwork.

587
00:39:31.369 --> 00:39:32.704
It's the birth certificate.

588
00:39:32.829 --> 00:39:34.414
Do you wanna put
the father's name on it?

589
00:39:34.497 --> 00:39:36.082
‐No.
‐No.

590
00:39:38.918 --> 00:39:40.420
It's just me.

591
00:39:44.007 --> 00:39:46.885
Like I said, Your Honor,
I‐I just wanted to find out

592
00:39:46.968 --> 00:39:49.012
why she was saying
those crazy things about me.

593
00:39:49.137 --> 00:39:52.849
So why hold it against me
for going to see her?

594
00:39:52.932 --> 00:39:53.975
"Going to see her?"

595
00:39:54.100 --> 00:39:55.560
Your Honor,
in addition to battery,

596
00:39:55.685 --> 00:39:57.979
he's been relentless in stalking
her throughout the city.

597
00:39:58.062 --> 00:40:00.732
‐He pointed a gun at her.
‐Objection, Your Honor.

598
00:40:00.857 --> 00:40:02.150
The defendant
has already testified

599
00:40:02.275 --> 00:40:03.651
that he did not have a weapon

600
00:40:03.776 --> 00:40:05.111
and never threatened
Ms. Thompson.

601
00:40:05.194 --> 00:40:06.654
How many times will counsel

602
00:40:06.779 --> 00:40:08.156
try to suggest
this alternate scenario?

603
00:40:08.239 --> 00:40:09.115
Counselor?

604
00:40:09.198 --> 00:40:10.283
We have the neighbor's testimony

605
00:40:10.366 --> 00:40:11.826
that corroborates
Ms. Thompson's.

606
00:40:11.951 --> 00:40:14.329
The neighbor testified
that she did not see a weapon,

607
00:40:14.454 --> 00:40:16.998
nor hear my client
threaten Ms. Thompson

608
00:40:17.123 --> 00:40:19.125
before she fired a shot at him.

609
00:40:20.335 --> 00:40:21.961
Move along, counselor.

610
00:40:23.338 --> 00:40:26.132
Your Honor, we have a report...
May I approach?

611
00:40:26.215 --> 00:40:28.468
From the court's
own investigator...

612
00:40:29.802 --> 00:40:32.847
that indicates repeated
contradictory statements

613
00:40:32.972 --> 00:40:34.265
given by the defendant.

614
00:40:34.349 --> 00:40:36.267
We have a witness confirming

615
00:40:36.351 --> 00:40:38.770
he terrorized Ms. Thompson
at her own home

616
00:40:38.853 --> 00:40:40.188
to the extent she had
to jump out of her window

617
00:40:40.313 --> 00:40:41.648
while six months pregnant.

618
00:40:41.731 --> 00:40:42.982
Your Honor, is there a question

619
00:40:43.066 --> 00:40:44.734
coming for my client here?

620
00:40:44.859 --> 00:40:47.904
Or is opposing counsel simply
using this time to pontificate?

621
00:40:53.576 --> 00:40:56.329
The court finds the defendant
guilty of battery threats

622
00:40:56.412 --> 00:40:57.914
and witness intimidation.

623
00:40:58.039 --> 00:40:59.999
However, the court is willing
to grant probation

624
00:41:00.083 --> 00:41:02.627
providing the following
conditions are met.

625
00:41:02.752 --> 00:41:04.462
No contact with Ms. Thompson,

626
00:41:04.504 --> 00:41:07.006
and you will meet
with a probation officer.

627
00:41:11.052 --> 00:41:12.095
Court dismissed.

628
00:41:21.145 --> 00:41:24.107
All of this for a slap on the
wrist and just waltz out free?

629
00:41:24.190 --> 00:41:26.901
To remind me why we didn't just
hit him with the rape charge

630
00:41:27.026 --> 00:41:28.778
instead of leaving it
an open case?

631
00:41:28.861 --> 00:41:32.907
'Cause the stalking case
was gonna be easier to convict.

632
00:41:32.991 --> 00:41:35.827
Look, I don't understand
what the hell happened here.

633
00:41:35.910 --> 00:41:38.162
I really don't understand
that interim judge,

634
00:41:38.287 --> 00:41:39.497
the leniency he showed.

635
00:41:39.622 --> 00:41:41.666
But we'll get him
on the rape charge.

636
00:41:41.791 --> 00:41:44.085
There's a good chance it will
get heard early next year.

637
00:41:45.545 --> 00:41:47.380
‐Amy...
‐Next year?

638
00:41:47.505 --> 00:41:50.508
I've had cases that have
stayed open almost 20 years.

639
00:41:50.591 --> 00:41:52.010
I can't hear that right now,
Jim.

640
00:41:52.135 --> 00:41:53.928
I know. I get it, but...

641
00:41:56.180 --> 00:41:57.807
Amy, that's the reality.

642
00:41:57.890 --> 00:42:00.476
You don't have to remind me
of the reality of it, Jim.

643
00:42:00.560 --> 00:42:02.186
No, I don't.

644
00:42:04.856 --> 00:42:07.150
But can you just try for today

645
00:42:07.275 --> 00:42:09.777
to feel just a little hopeful?

646
00:42:09.861 --> 00:42:12.363
Because the man that raped me,
impregnated me

647
00:42:12.488 --> 00:42:15.616
and is stalking me
just got off on probation?

648
00:42:20.371 --> 00:42:22.790
The hurricane warning
remains in effect

649
00:42:22.874 --> 00:42:25.668
for all the Carolinas
and parts of Virginia.

650
00:42:25.793 --> 00:42:29.881
Hurricane Arthur, a major
and extremely deadly hurricane

651
00:42:30.006 --> 00:42:33.760
is expected to make landfall
around 9 a. m. tomorrow.

652
00:42:33.843 --> 00:42:37.430
This super‐storm is expected
to be a category‐five hurricane

653
00:42:37.513 --> 00:42:40.850
with winds
up to 300 miles per hour.

654
00:42:40.975 --> 00:42:42.101
Hey, are you at the center yet?

655
00:42:42.185 --> 00:42:46.773
No, I'm not evacuating.
I'm leaving...for good.

656
00:42:46.856 --> 00:42:48.191
I'm sorry,
am I missing something?

657
00:42:48.274 --> 00:42:50.401
Isn't there a hurricane raging
outside of your door right now?

658
00:42:50.526 --> 00:42:52.945
Yeah, maybe
it's telling me something.

659
00:42:53.029 --> 00:42:56.282
A sign to get out and go
somewhere, anywhere but here.

660
00:42:56.365 --> 00:42:58.826
What? What about the rape case?

661
00:42:58.910 --> 00:43:02.497
It's taking too long, Letty.
I'm scared here.

662
00:43:02.622 --> 00:43:04.540
Well, then come to Boston.
Stay here with me.

663
00:43:04.665 --> 00:43:08.961
‐No. I'm gonna go to Atlanta.
‐Why?

664
00:43:09.045 --> 00:43:12.215
Hey, we liked
going to school there. Okay?

665
00:43:12.340 --> 00:43:14.425
And I need something familiar.

666
00:43:14.509 --> 00:43:16.427
Be careful.

667
00:43:16.511 --> 00:43:18.304
Look, I'll call you
from the road, okay?

668
00:43:18.346 --> 00:43:20.181
Alright, bye.

669
00:43:52.171 --> 00:43:53.339
Thank you.

670
00:43:54.549 --> 00:43:56.217
Wow, Maddy,
you have the magic touch.

671
00:43:56.342 --> 00:43:57.385
We've sold out three times.

672
00:43:57.510 --> 00:43:59.470
It's my secret potion,
that's why, mama.

673
00:43:59.595 --> 00:44:02.598
‐Yeah? So what's in it, again?
‐It's a secret.

674
00:44:02.682 --> 00:44:05.560
Okay. Hey, remember,
we don't have secrets.

675
00:44:05.685 --> 00:44:08.146
‐Hm, yeah, yeah.
‐Hey...

676
00:44:08.271 --> 00:44:10.148
is this stuff really homemade?
Did you make it?

677
00:44:10.189 --> 00:44:12.233
‐I did.
‐We did.

678
00:44:12.316 --> 00:44:14.986
Ow, mama, that hurts.

679
00:44:15.111 --> 00:44:17.738
Hey, buddy,
you, uh, you want a cup?

680
00:44:18.739 --> 00:44:20.575
Here, kid. It's on the house.

681
00:44:20.700 --> 00:44:23.619
‐Okay?
‐Thanks. Come on, bud.

682
00:44:26.289 --> 00:44:29.167
Drink all my potion.
It'll make you big and strong.

683
00:44:30.334 --> 00:44:33.212
‐Thank you.
‐You're welcome.

684
00:44:33.296 --> 00:44:36.465
Mm! Man, that's good.

685
00:44:36.591 --> 00:44:38.593
Your preschool
is just around the corner,

686
00:44:38.676 --> 00:44:40.261
and you'll have
some of the same friends,

687
00:44:40.344 --> 00:44:41.637
like Logan and Sophia.

688
00:44:41.679 --> 00:44:43.681
And I bet there'll be
cooler art projects.

689
00:44:43.806 --> 00:44:46.392
But if we don't like it,
we can do Team Us.

690
00:44:46.517 --> 00:44:48.269
‐There'll always be Team Us!
‐Team Us!

691
00:44:49.478 --> 00:44:51.981
‐You okay?
‐Mm‐hmm.

692
00:44:52.106 --> 00:44:54.525
You ready to go find your desk?

693
00:44:54.650 --> 00:44:55.902
Yeah.

694
00:44:58.696 --> 00:45:00.907
‐You can go now, mama.
‐Okay.

695
00:45:10.291 --> 00:45:13.294
Excuse me. Which way
is administration? Thank you.

696
00:45:13.377 --> 00:45:15.588
And I really appreciate
her getting into this school.

697
00:45:15.671 --> 00:45:18.674
It's such an artistic place.
And it feels safe.

698
00:45:18.799 --> 00:45:21.177
Yeah, of course.
We're happy to have her here.

699
00:45:21.260 --> 00:45:23.137
‐Is it?
‐Pardon?

700
00:45:23.179 --> 00:45:24.680
I mean, it feels safe...

701
00:45:24.764 --> 00:45:27.642
We use every precaution possible

702
00:45:27.725 --> 00:45:29.644
a‐and we do have
a parent safety committee,

703
00:45:29.769 --> 00:45:31.979
if that's something
you're interested in.

704
00:45:32.063 --> 00:45:34.190
Yes, I'm already signed up
for that.

705
00:45:35.524 --> 00:45:37.610
Well, we have a spotless record

706
00:45:37.693 --> 00:45:39.946
when it comes to security
at this school.

707
00:45:40.029 --> 00:45:41.614
I promise you,
you have nothing to worry about.

708
00:45:43.199 --> 00:45:45.326
‐Okay. Thank you, David.
‐Of course.

709
00:45:45.409 --> 00:45:48.537
Hey, while I have your here, um,
Maddy's enrollment forms,

710
00:45:48.663 --> 00:45:50.498
you left
the father's name blank.

711
00:45:50.581 --> 00:45:52.333
Yes, that's correct.

712
00:45:54.085 --> 00:45:56.337
Uh, Maddy doesn't have a father.

713
00:45:57.004 --> 00:45:58.005
Oh.

714
00:45:58.130 --> 00:45:59.298
I should get to work. Thank you.

715
00:45:59.382 --> 00:46:00.675
Sure.

716
00:46:02.385 --> 00:46:03.719
Hey, Amy, how was your weekend?

717
00:46:03.844 --> 00:46:07.640
I went to the game,
then got wasted Saturday night

718
00:46:07.682 --> 00:46:11.394
and spent yesterday in recovery.
What did you do?

719
00:46:11.519 --> 00:46:15.314
Um, Maddy had a birthday party,
and then we had a church thing.

720
00:46:15.356 --> 00:46:17.650
Actually, today is her first day
of school.

721
00:46:17.692 --> 00:46:20.194
Hm. Fun, fun, fun!

722
00:46:20.278 --> 00:46:22.738
So maybe you wanna join us
this weekend?

723
00:46:22.863 --> 00:46:24.991
We're all going out
to this crazy party.

724
00:46:25.074 --> 00:46:27.201
It's gonna be awesome.
You should really come.

725
00:46:27.285 --> 00:46:28.661
Uh, I actually,
I have this old friend

726
00:46:28.786 --> 00:46:30.288
who's coming into town, so...

727
00:46:30.371 --> 00:46:31.330
Oh...

728
00:46:31.455 --> 00:46:33.499
I'm gonna get started
on this litigation.

729
00:46:35.668 --> 00:46:37.712
Yeah, for sure.

730
00:46:43.718 --> 00:46:46.637
And I was in my office
alone again,

731
00:46:46.679 --> 00:46:48.764
and I looked out
at The Boston Opera House

732
00:46:48.848 --> 00:46:51.475
and I thought,
"What the heck am I doing?"

733
00:46:51.600 --> 00:46:53.477
Law was my father's dream.

734
00:46:53.561 --> 00:46:55.771
All I ever wanted to do
was dance!

735
00:46:55.855 --> 00:46:57.565
Wait, so what are you saying?

736
00:46:57.690 --> 00:46:59.608
You're gonna dance
at the Opera House?

737
00:46:59.692 --> 00:47:01.027
No.

738
00:47:02.695 --> 00:47:05.531
Um, I'm gonna dance here.

739
00:47:05.656 --> 00:47:08.868
‐Here? As in Atlanta?
‐Yes, Atlanta.

740
00:47:08.993 --> 00:47:11.454
The guys here are so cute.

741
00:47:11.537 --> 00:47:12.747
Plus, you have Costco and...

742
00:47:12.872 --> 00:47:14.332
‐And Waffle House!
‐Waffle House.

743
00:47:14.415 --> 00:47:17.835
I mean,
what else does a girl need?

744
00:47:17.918 --> 00:47:19.545
And there's
a decent dance studio downtown

745
00:47:19.670 --> 00:47:21.380
that I could teach at.

746
00:47:23.674 --> 00:47:25.885
Is it cool if I hang here

747
00:47:26.010 --> 00:47:28.471
until I find my own place?

748
00:47:28.596 --> 00:47:30.848
‐What?
‐Yay!

749
00:47:30.973 --> 00:47:34.560
It could be like the old days,
but better.

750
00:47:37.855 --> 00:47:41.233
And free dance lessons for all!

751
00:47:41.317 --> 00:47:43.194
Yes, we can turn the office
into your room.

752
00:47:43.277 --> 00:47:45.154
Although, spoiler alert,
Maddy's never been one

753
00:47:45.196 --> 00:47:46.322
to sleep through the night.

754
00:47:46.447 --> 00:47:47.281
Well, that makes two of us.

755
00:47:47.365 --> 00:47:48.866
She could watch my old movies
with me,

756
00:47:48.949 --> 00:47:51.869
and I could teach her
my horrendous snacking habits.

757
00:47:54.330 --> 00:47:56.832
Plus, I think
you could use some help.

758
00:47:57.708 --> 00:48:00.252
I'm proud of you...

759
00:48:00.336 --> 00:48:03.923
and this beautiful life
that you've made.

760
00:48:08.177 --> 00:48:10.763
And the only reason
I'm goin' back to that church

761
00:48:10.846 --> 00:48:13.891
is for that great bakery
across the street.

762
00:48:14.016 --> 00:48:15.810
They sell those cinnamon buns
you love.

763
00:48:15.893 --> 00:48:17.853
Mama, can I have one?

764
00:48:17.978 --> 00:48:19.480
Your choice,
'cause as I remember,

765
00:48:19.563 --> 00:48:22.691
it's Sophia's party and someone
said there'd be cake.

766
00:48:22.817 --> 00:48:23.776
Hey, put that in the sink
for me, okay?

767
00:48:25.027 --> 00:48:27.613
Oh, that must be the paper.

768
00:48:29.657 --> 00:48:31.242
‐Amy Thompson?
‐Yes.

769
00:48:32.451 --> 00:48:33.494
You've been served.

770
00:48:47.341 --> 00:48:48.884
How can he file for custody?

771
00:48:49.009 --> 00:48:51.512
He denies brutally raping you.

772
00:48:51.637 --> 00:48:54.098
And now all of a sudden
he's daddy dearest?

773
00:48:56.809 --> 00:48:59.019
Different state.
Different court.

774
00:49:03.774 --> 00:49:06.652
Mama, what's wrong?

775
00:49:06.735 --> 00:49:08.696
Oh, nothing, honey.
Everything's fine.

776
00:49:08.821 --> 00:49:09.822
Okay, come on,
we don't wanna be late...

777
00:49:09.864 --> 00:49:11.449
We're gone!

778
00:49:39.226 --> 00:49:40.561
Mama.

779
00:50:58.931 --> 00:51:00.266
of wh.

780
00:51:00.349 --> 00:51:02.351
Oh, great. Thanks. Alright.

781
00:51:02.476 --> 00:51:04.311
Let's take a look and see
what she has here.

782
00:51:04.395 --> 00:51:05.688
Yeah.

783
00:51:05.813 --> 00:51:06.897
‐Um...
‐Oh!

784
00:51:07.022 --> 00:51:08.065
Okay. Yeah,
there's a police report.

785
00:51:08.190 --> 00:51:09.525
Yup. That's pretty...

786
00:51:09.650 --> 00:51:10.568
How can he be entitled

787
00:51:10.693 --> 00:51:12.695
to the very same rights
as other fathers?

788
00:51:12.820 --> 00:51:15.656
Well, in Georgia, there's
a belief that a rapist father

789
00:51:15.781 --> 00:51:17.533
is better than no father at all.

790
00:51:17.658 --> 00:51:18.993
Uh, he must have known

791
00:51:19.034 --> 00:51:20.953
'cause he couldn't have filed
in North Carolina.

792
00:51:21.036 --> 00:51:22.496
We actually had a case
a few years ago

793
00:51:22.621 --> 00:51:24.373
where the judge ruled
that the mother

794
00:51:24.498 --> 00:51:26.375
share all the decisions
of the household

795
00:51:26.458 --> 00:51:28.961
with the rapist father,
even religious choice.

796
00:51:29.044 --> 00:51:30.629
There's another judge here
that believes

797
00:51:30.713 --> 00:51:32.381
that a pregnancy from rape

798
00:51:32.506 --> 00:51:35.634
occurs with the same frequency
as snowfall in Miami.

799
00:51:36.760 --> 00:51:38.929
I was raped and I conceived.

800
00:51:39.013 --> 00:51:41.807
Right, and that case
is still pending

801
00:51:41.890 --> 00:51:43.058
and hasn't been tried yet.

802
00:51:43.183 --> 00:51:45.936
So he's still innocent
in the eyes of the law.

803
00:51:46.020 --> 00:51:47.479
This morning, counsel disclosed

804
00:51:47.605 --> 00:51:50.357
that he's hiring
his own private investigator.

805
00:51:50.482 --> 00:51:52.818
‐He'll be contacting you.
‐Private investigator for what?

806
00:51:52.901 --> 00:51:53.986
He looks all the more innocent

807
00:51:54.069 --> 00:51:55.779
if it appears like
he's transparent.

808
00:51:55.863 --> 00:51:58.115
Where's he even getting
the money to pay for this?

809
00:51:58.198 --> 00:52:00.117
Fathers'‐rights groups?
Family's helping him?

810
00:52:00.200 --> 00:52:01.785
It doesn't matter to the court.

811
00:52:01.869 --> 00:52:05.497
There's something else that
his attorneys are asking for.

812
00:52:05.623 --> 00:52:07.833
He wants the child
to have his name.

813
00:52:07.916 --> 00:52:08.959
No way.

814
00:52:09.001 --> 00:52:10.794
But he'll settle
for a hyphenate.

815
00:52:10.919 --> 00:52:13.380
‐Never. Never!
‐Never say never.

816
00:52:13.464 --> 00:52:15.466
As your court date
is just a few weeks away,

817
00:52:15.549 --> 00:52:17.760
I suggest that you sign with us
immediately...

818
00:52:17.843 --> 00:52:21.930
If you don't hire a lawyer,
the court will assign you one.

819
00:52:22.014 --> 00:52:26.477
‐ I don't think you want that.
‐ Okay, so what's your strategy?

820
00:52:26.602 --> 00:52:30.481
Well, the court will look
favorably on a small concession,

821
00:52:30.564 --> 00:52:34.360
so I say we open the door
to once‐a‐month Sundays

822
00:52:34.485 --> 00:52:35.694
with supervised visitation‐‐

823
00:52:35.819 --> 00:52:37.988
Thank you. I'll defend myself.

824
00:52:38.072 --> 00:52:40.366
Ms. Thompson, you can't do that.

825
00:52:41.825 --> 00:52:44.119
This man pointed a gun at me

826
00:52:44.203 --> 00:52:46.830
when I was pregnant
with my daughter.

827
00:52:46.914 --> 00:52:50.918
I will not be compromising her
safety and welfare in any way,

828
00:52:51.001 --> 00:52:52.586
even if the system thinks
it's okay

829
00:52:52.670 --> 00:52:55.756
for rapists
to tuck kids into bed at night.

830
00:52:55.839 --> 00:52:58.217
So what's your strategy?

831
00:52:58.967 --> 00:52:59.885
The truth.

832
00:53:06.850 --> 00:53:10.604
Yes, hi, my name's Amy Thompson.
Can I speak to Professor Berman?

833
00:53:10.688 --> 00:53:13.524
Hi, Professor Berman,
it's Amy Thompson.

834
00:53:13.649 --> 00:53:16.819
Yeah, I have some questions
regarding a custody case.

835
00:53:18.654 --> 00:53:21.073
Yes, is there any precedence
in the state of Georgia

836
00:53:21.198 --> 00:53:22.741
for denying custodial rights?

837
00:53:22.825 --> 00:53:25.035
So you're saying there's
no protection for mothers

838
00:53:25.160 --> 00:53:27.538
with children
that are the product of rape?

839
00:53:31.208 --> 00:53:34.920
But there must be some way.
But...

840
00:53:35.003 --> 00:53:37.965
I understand, but...

841
00:53:38.090 --> 00:53:40.134
Surely you're not saying...

842
00:53:42.344 --> 00:53:44.805
Is there someone else
I can speak with?

843
00:53:48.642 --> 00:53:50.477
I'm workin' on your snack,
okay? It's comin'.

844
00:53:50.561 --> 00:53:52.229
‐Mm‐hmm.
‐Double peanut butter, right?

845
00:53:52.312 --> 00:53:54.106
‐Yeah. Yes, please.
‐Yes, please.

846
00:53:54.189 --> 00:53:56.275
How's your music homework
comin' along?

847
00:53:56.358 --> 00:53:59.236
I was doing good,
but I took a little break.

848
00:53:59.319 --> 00:54:01.238
But I did some.

849
00:54:02.030 --> 00:54:03.782
Finally found it.

850
00:54:05.367 --> 00:54:07.411
Hey, why is she frowning?

851
00:54:08.370 --> 00:54:10.664
Well, she's in trouble.

852
00:54:10.789 --> 00:54:12.583
Who's in trouble?

853
00:54:12.708 --> 00:54:16.003
You, mama. We're gonna learn
to karate chop.

854
00:54:16.128 --> 00:54:18.297
And you won't be afraid anymore.

855
00:54:19.840 --> 00:54:21.508
I'll protect you, mama.

856
00:54:21.633 --> 00:54:25.387
All you have to do is sign here.

857
00:54:25.512 --> 00:54:26.847
Okay.

858
00:54:51.872 --> 00:54:53.665
Hey.

859
00:54:53.791 --> 00:54:56.460
‐I thought you had work.
‐I have a friend.

860
00:54:56.585 --> 00:54:58.629
He bought himself a team.

861
00:54:58.754 --> 00:55:01.256
They look like a bunch
of fancy birds on a wire.

862
00:55:01.340 --> 00:55:03.509
At least you don't actually have
to see that bastard.

863
00:55:03.592 --> 00:55:04.802
That's the one good thing
he did,

864
00:55:04.927 --> 00:55:07.513
have the decency to stay
in North Carolina.

865
00:55:09.097 --> 00:55:11.975
Hey, you got this.

866
00:55:12.059 --> 00:55:15.229
All rise
for the honorable Judge Bonner.

867
00:55:22.027 --> 00:55:23.487
Please be seated.

868
00:55:25.072 --> 00:55:28.617
We're here to establish
Mr. Demetri Hogan's paternity.

869
00:55:28.700 --> 00:55:31.203
Mr. Hogan, counsel informs me
they are representing you

870
00:55:31.328 --> 00:55:32.663
for the State of Georgia

871
00:55:32.746 --> 00:55:34.915
and you presently live
in North Carolina.

872
00:55:35.040 --> 00:55:36.166
Is this correct?

873
00:55:36.291 --> 00:55:37.292
Yes, Your Honor.

874
00:55:49.263 --> 00:55:51.557
I'm the best you'll ever have.

875
00:56:04.236 --> 00:56:06.989
And we have
Mr. Hogan's counsel Ms. Wallace

876
00:56:07.114 --> 00:56:10.325
and Mr. Rosemead,
his personal investigator.

877
00:56:10.450 --> 00:56:13.871
Ms. Thompson,
you're representing yourself?

878
00:56:14.997 --> 00:56:16.123
Yes, Your Honor.

879
00:56:16.206 --> 00:56:18.166
You know the court does not
advise it.

880
00:56:18.250 --> 00:56:19.626
I do, Your Honor.

881
00:56:21.128 --> 00:56:24.089
I've read petitioners'
and respondents' statements.

882
00:56:24.172 --> 00:56:27.634
As this hearing is to establish
Mr. Hogan's paternal rights,

883
00:56:27.718 --> 00:56:30.304
I'll ask his counsel to proceed
with any new statements.

884
00:56:30.429 --> 00:56:32.097
Mr. Hogan's message
has been clear

885
00:56:32.180 --> 00:56:35.392
since he hired Mr. Rosemead,
who helped him to discover

886
00:56:35.475 --> 00:56:38.645
that he fathered a child
almost seven years ago.

887
00:56:38.770 --> 00:56:42.316
He simply wants an opportunity
to be a loving father

888
00:56:42.441 --> 00:56:44.985
to the child that he's purposely
been kept away

889
00:56:45.068 --> 00:56:46.028
from by the mother.

890
00:56:46.153 --> 00:56:47.404
Your Honor, that's a lie.

891
00:56:47.529 --> 00:56:50.741
Mr. Hogan found out
I was pregnant from a detective.

892
00:56:50.866 --> 00:56:52.659
I filed a restraining order
against him

893
00:56:52.743 --> 00:56:54.286
after he raped me
in North Carolina.

894
00:56:54.369 --> 00:56:56.163
Ms. Wallace was his attorney
then, too.

895
00:56:56.288 --> 00:56:57.664
Objection, Your Honor.

896
00:56:57.748 --> 00:56:59.207
Are you going to allow
Ms. Thompson

897
00:56:59.333 --> 00:57:01.168
to randomly interject like this?

898
00:57:01.293 --> 00:57:03.670
Ms. Thompson,
please approach the bench.

899
00:57:09.384 --> 00:57:12.804
This is family court,
not criminal court.

900
00:57:12.888 --> 00:57:13.680
Yes, Your Honor.

901
00:57:13.764 --> 00:57:14.973
And are you aware of any law

902
00:57:15.057 --> 00:57:17.851
to prohibit this action
from the child's father?

903
00:57:17.976 --> 00:57:20.479
No, Your Honor,
not in the state of Georgia.

904
00:57:20.520 --> 00:57:22.731
And no federal law, correct?

905
00:57:23.774 --> 00:57:25.817
‐No, Your Honor.
‐In which case‐‐

906
00:57:25.943 --> 00:57:28.195
‐But I'm working on it.
‐Well, you'd best hurry.

907
00:57:28.320 --> 00:57:30.822
State law
is scarce and inconsistent.

908
00:57:30.948 --> 00:57:32.658
I'm bound by the law,
Ms. Thompson.

909
00:57:32.783 --> 00:57:34.952
Laws that keep
mothers and children

910
00:57:35.035 --> 00:57:37.287
tethered to the rapist?

911
00:57:37.371 --> 00:57:39.998
Under the law,
I'm compelled to believe

912
00:57:40.082 --> 00:57:41.959
both parents capable...

913
00:57:43.418 --> 00:57:45.629
unless I'm convinced otherwise.

914
00:57:48.048 --> 00:57:50.926
Maybe you'd like to consider
getting some help?

915
00:57:53.011 --> 00:57:54.554
You may be seated.

916
00:57:57.015 --> 00:57:58.684
Before we proceed,
I'd like to order

917
00:57:58.809 --> 00:58:00.894
a paternity test for Mr. Hogan.

918
00:58:01.019 --> 00:58:03.313
Based on that,
we will set hearings.

919
00:58:03.397 --> 00:58:05.774
Court stands adjourned
for the day.

920
00:58:05.857 --> 00:58:06.984
Excuse me,
I just want to talk to her.

921
00:58:07.067 --> 00:58:08.110
He sounded like Darth Vader

922
00:58:08.193 --> 00:58:09.945
through that
stupid speaker phone.

923
00:58:10.028 --> 00:58:12.030
Excuse me, Ms. Thompson.

924
00:58:12.155 --> 00:58:13.198
Bob Moss.

925
00:58:13.281 --> 00:58:14.282
I was watching the proceedings

926
00:58:14.366 --> 00:58:15.826
and I'd like to offer
my assistance.

927
00:58:15.951 --> 00:58:17.536
Thank you very much,
I'm defending myself.

928
00:58:17.661 --> 00:58:20.497
Ah, court kind of prefers
that you have an attorney.

929
00:58:20.580 --> 00:58:24.668
I‐I know this judge really well,
and I'd do it pro‐bono.

930
00:58:26.169 --> 00:58:27.337
You know, you just...

931
00:58:27.421 --> 00:58:30.173
You can think of me as a...
I got 'em here.

932
00:58:30.298 --> 00:58:32.968
A hard‐working sandbag for you.

933
00:58:33.093 --> 00:58:35.012
And, um, for the record,

934
00:58:35.137 --> 00:58:38.223
I, I think what you're going
through here is, it's appalling.

935
00:58:41.601 --> 00:58:43.437
He seems nice.

936
00:59:02.372 --> 00:59:04.291
Hello.

937
00:59:04.374 --> 00:59:05.959
Afternoon, gentlemen.

938
00:59:06.043 --> 00:59:09.337
‐Can I help you, sir?
‐I'm just waiting on someone.

939
00:59:09.463 --> 00:59:10.505
If you don't have a child here,

940
00:59:10.630 --> 00:59:12.466
you shouldn't be
on the property,

941
00:59:12.549 --> 00:59:13.967
unless you signed in
at the office.

942
00:59:14.051 --> 00:59:16.011
Now, there's a protocol in place
for all visitors.

943
00:59:16.136 --> 00:59:19.473
‐It's to keep everyone safe.
‐Maybe I do have a child here.

944
00:59:19.556 --> 00:59:21.433
What's your child's name?

945
00:59:21.516 --> 00:59:24.478
You know, I'm not a visitor.
I'm a father.

946
00:59:25.896 --> 00:59:30.233
I don't have to prove anything
to you. It's my right.

947
00:59:36.573 --> 00:59:39.868
Notify the cops about this guy.

948
00:59:39.993 --> 00:59:42.037
They can't do anything
unless he does something.

949
00:59:42.162 --> 00:59:43.747
Yeah, do it anyway.

950
00:59:45.957 --> 00:59:47.959
You think
he's really got a kid here?

951
00:59:48.001 --> 00:59:50.128
I wouldn't trust him with one
if he does.

952
00:59:50.253 --> 00:59:51.421
‐Junbi!
‐Ah!

953
00:59:51.505 --> 00:59:53.298
Right foot back,
fighting stance, go!

954
00:59:53.381 --> 00:59:55.008
‐Ah!
‐Center punch, go!

955
00:59:55.133 --> 00:59:56.218
‐Ah!
‐Go!

956
00:59:56.343 --> 01:00:01.181
‐Ah!
‐Remember, Chi lives inside us.

957
01:00:01.264 --> 01:00:03.308
Chi is the life force

958
01:00:03.433 --> 01:00:05.977
that flows through all things.

959
01:00:06.061 --> 01:00:09.314
‐Can you feel the Chi, class?
‐Yes, sensei.

960
01:00:09.356 --> 01:00:12.567
This guy's the real deal.
Our whole family takes a class.

961
01:00:12.692 --> 01:00:15.195
Worth every penny
for the peace of mind.

962
01:00:15.320 --> 01:00:17.030
McDevitt is our Shihan Sensei.

963
01:00:17.155 --> 01:00:19.616
Word is, he was one of the best
State Troopers back in the day.

964
01:00:19.699 --> 01:00:22.828
Remember the practice continues
outside of the dojo.

965
01:00:22.953 --> 01:00:25.330
Does he ever do private lessons?

966
01:00:25.413 --> 01:00:27.666
Sometimes. He's very particular.

967
01:00:27.749 --> 01:00:30.460
You have to write a request,
old‐school style.

968
01:00:30.544 --> 01:00:32.129
He decides if you're worthy.

969
01:00:32.212 --> 01:00:34.381
The dojo exists
because of the meaning

970
01:00:34.506 --> 01:00:35.882
we give it!

971
01:00:36.007 --> 01:00:37.843
Class, please be seated.

972
01:00:43.140 --> 01:00:44.891
Ah, that's your daughter?

973
01:00:45.016 --> 01:00:48.061
‐Yes, yeah, it is.
‐Cool, good for her.

974
01:00:48.145 --> 01:00:49.563
You know, when I was nine,
I was on the cover

975
01:00:49.688 --> 01:00:51.064
of "Black Belt" magazine.

976
01:00:51.189 --> 01:00:53.024
‐Hm.
‐Yeah.

977
01:00:53.150 --> 01:00:55.235
So these are, this is
the paperwork that you needed

978
01:00:55.360 --> 01:00:56.403
for Maddy's school
for the judge.

979
01:00:56.528 --> 01:00:58.196
Oh, yes. Thank you. Um...

980
01:00:58.280 --> 01:01:01.116
I hate to bother you in the
middle of family time what not,

981
01:01:01.199 --> 01:01:04.035
but, um, we're gonna need
another deposition

982
01:01:04.161 --> 01:01:07.414
from someone that has
any knowledge of your case.

983
01:01:07.539 --> 01:01:08.707
Uh, Letty and Chickie
weren't enough?

984
01:01:08.832 --> 01:01:10.167
Uh, no, no, no.
They're, they're fine.

985
01:01:10.250 --> 01:01:12.085
It's just that, you know,
the posing attorneys,

986
01:01:12.169 --> 01:01:14.337
they're gonna try to discover
any inaccuracies

987
01:01:14.462 --> 01:01:15.630
in your version of events

988
01:01:15.755 --> 01:01:17.591
so that they can,
you know, settle this

989
01:01:17.674 --> 01:01:19.009
before we even get to court.

990
01:01:19.134 --> 01:01:21.219
Uh, so is there anybody
who can depose?

991
01:01:21.303 --> 01:01:23.555
Anybody else we can depose
that, you know,

992
01:01:23.680 --> 01:01:27.642
knows what happened and‐and
can approach themselves?

993
01:01:27.726 --> 01:01:29.519
You know, it might have been
nice to be warned

994
01:01:29.603 --> 01:01:31.062
that I was gonna be disposed.

995
01:01:31.146 --> 01:01:34.649
‐Deposed, mom.
‐Po‐tay‐to, po‐tah‐to.

996
01:01:34.733 --> 01:01:36.401
Well, I thought
everything was gonna be done

997
01:01:36.484 --> 01:01:38.111
over the phone, so...

998
01:01:38.195 --> 01:01:39.404
Well, I guess
that's not the first thing

999
01:01:39.487 --> 01:01:41.489
you've been wrong about,

1000
01:01:41.615 --> 01:01:45.368
along with
that airline knock‐off suit.

1001
01:01:45.452 --> 01:01:48.580
I mean, do you just
purposely wear stuff like that

1002
01:01:48.705 --> 01:01:51.541
so men won't give you
a second look?

1003
01:01:51.666 --> 01:01:54.377
No wonder you're still single.

1004
01:01:54.502 --> 01:01:57.505
Have I not taught you anything?

1005
01:01:57.631 --> 01:02:00.217
You've taught me
more than you know.

1006
01:02:00.342 --> 01:02:02.969
Well, don't worry,
I'm not stickin' around.

1007
01:02:03.053 --> 01:02:05.138
As soon as I answer
these boring questions,

1008
01:02:05.263 --> 01:02:06.473
I'm on my way.

1009
01:02:06.598 --> 01:02:09.434
Thank you for doing this.
I appreciate it.

1010
01:02:09.517 --> 01:02:11.645
I didn't exactly have a choice.

1011
01:02:12.646 --> 01:02:14.272
I just think this is ridiculous

1012
01:02:14.356 --> 01:02:15.482
that you have to fight this,

1013
01:02:15.607 --> 01:02:19.694
this rapist for custody.

1014
01:02:21.071 --> 01:02:24.032
You should've, you should've
never moved to Georgia.

1015
01:02:24.157 --> 01:02:26.743
Those damn
backwoods hillbillies...

1016
01:02:29.287 --> 01:02:30.580
So how is she?

1017
01:02:30.705 --> 01:02:31.957
Maddy?

1018
01:02:33.708 --> 01:02:36.753
She's very sweet. Happy.

1019
01:02:36.836 --> 01:02:39.047
Does she look
anything like him?

1020
01:02:40.674 --> 01:02:42.676
No, mom.

1021
01:02:42.801 --> 01:02:44.803
She looks like you.

1022
01:02:45.804 --> 01:02:49.849
Why, Lord!
What a beautiful angel!

1023
01:02:51.518 --> 01:02:53.687
I would love to meet her.

1024
01:02:55.313 --> 01:02:58.358
Do you think you could ever
change your mind?

1025
01:03:02.946 --> 01:03:04.197
‐Look...
‐I could...

1026
01:03:04.281 --> 01:03:07.075
I could help you
make some money with her.

1027
01:03:07.158 --> 01:03:10.161
Well, I was modeling
at that age, winnin' pageants,

1028
01:03:10.287 --> 01:03:12.998
I was puttin' food on the table
so my mama didn't have to worry

1029
01:03:13.123 --> 01:03:16.167
so much. I was glad to help.

1030
01:03:16.251 --> 01:03:20.255
As much as some might
judge my world, I was happy.

1031
01:03:20.338 --> 01:03:22.257
My daughter is happy.

1032
01:03:24.384 --> 01:03:25.719
Well...

1033
01:03:27.512 --> 01:03:29.097
Why don't you treat yourself?

1034
01:03:29.180 --> 01:03:31.391
Come on. Take it.
Both‐both of you.

1035
01:03:33.351 --> 01:03:37.022
Or maybe you could pay
some of these court fees,

1036
01:03:37.147 --> 01:03:39.274
all these added expenses.

1037
01:03:42.152 --> 01:03:44.821
Didn't I say
this was gonna drag on?

1038
01:03:44.904 --> 01:03:47.615
You've said a lot of things,

1039
01:03:47.699 --> 01:03:51.328
most of them
ignorant and selfish.

1040
01:03:51.453 --> 01:03:55.373
God, I took it for so long.
I'm done.

1041
01:03:55.498 --> 01:03:58.626
I will never listen to your
toxic bull.... ever again,

1042
01:03:58.710 --> 01:04:01.963
and neither will my daughter.

1043
01:04:02.756 --> 01:04:04.215
That makes me happy.

1044
01:04:04.341 --> 01:04:06.051
Can I get you some coffee
while we're waiting

1045
01:04:06.176 --> 01:04:07.719
for the defense team to arrive?

1046
01:04:07.844 --> 01:04:09.804
I'm sure she'll have some.

1047
01:04:09.888 --> 01:04:12.140
She likes it on the bitter side.

1048
01:04:23.818 --> 01:04:24.986
Hm.

1049
01:04:27.697 --> 01:04:30.075
‐Mr. McDevitt.
‐Oh.

1050
01:04:30.200 --> 01:04:33.161
So I had to read your request
a few times.

1051
01:04:33.244 --> 01:04:37.665
You've got yourself a situation
and no time to waste.

1052
01:04:37.749 --> 01:04:39.417
‐Yes, sir.
‐Here's the good news.

1053
01:04:39.501 --> 01:04:44.089
I'm not a lawyer,
judge or a cop anymore.

1054
01:04:45.340 --> 01:04:47.801
Therefore,
I might actually be useful.

1055
01:04:47.926 --> 01:04:51.638
Now, before we get
into the physical,

1056
01:04:51.763 --> 01:04:55.517
we must examine why someone
has waged war against us.

1057
01:04:55.642 --> 01:04:58.686
Yes. Why after all these years?

1058
01:04:58.812 --> 01:05:02.899
All about power and control.

1059
01:05:03.024 --> 01:05:06.361
Just like rape.
The answer's simple.

1060
01:05:06.486 --> 01:05:09.823
‐ To get back at you, the enemy.
‐ For what?

1061
01:05:09.906 --> 01:05:12.617
He's what you call
a malignant narcissist.

1062
01:05:12.700 --> 01:05:14.160
It's never their responsibility.

1063
01:05:14.285 --> 01:05:17.205
'Cause you filed
criminal charges against him,

1064
01:05:17.330 --> 01:05:19.332
life has fallen apart
these past years.

1065
01:05:19.457 --> 01:05:22.544
And now he's claiming
the child as property.

1066
01:05:22.669 --> 01:05:26.297
Let me ask you. Are you ready
to form a counter attack?

1067
01:05:26.423 --> 01:05:30.593
I'm afraid of my anger
imprinting onto my daughter.

1068
01:05:30.677 --> 01:05:32.887
Fear imprints
onto children, too.

1069
01:05:32.971 --> 01:05:34.889
It's contagious, not to mention

1070
01:05:34.973 --> 01:05:37.475
that permanent kink in your neck

1071
01:05:37.559 --> 01:05:38.852
from always lookin' behind you.

1072
01:05:38.977 --> 01:05:40.270
So what do I do?

1073
01:05:40.353 --> 01:05:44.607
I'm talking about
finding his weakness

1074
01:05:44.691 --> 01:05:48.653
and creating an opportunity
for yourself to win

1075
01:05:48.736 --> 01:05:50.530
once and for all.

1076
01:05:50.655 --> 01:05:52.449
Change the rules.

1077
01:05:54.325 --> 01:05:58.580
That's how you get your mojo
teed up in my dojo.

1078
01:06:08.298 --> 01:06:12.427
and you can't stop me

1079
01:06:12.510 --> 01:06:15.847
flowers do

1080
01:06:15.972 --> 01:06:17.640
‐Yeah!
‐How'd I do?

1081
01:06:17.724 --> 01:06:19.809
I'm so proud of you,
and Aunt Letty's gonna help us

1082
01:06:19.893 --> 01:06:21.644
make the best costume ever.

1083
01:06:21.728 --> 01:06:25.523
Yes! Now can I go
ride my scooter?

1084
01:06:25.607 --> 01:06:27.734
Yes. Just stay where I can
see you, okay, honey?

1085
01:06:27.859 --> 01:06:29.360
Uh‐huh. I'm a sun...

1086
01:06:29.486 --> 01:06:32.530
She reminds me
of how you used to be.

1087
01:06:32.614 --> 01:06:37.285
Sorry. I just mean that...
I miss that part of you.

1088
01:06:38.703 --> 01:06:42.081
Yeah. Yeah, me, too.

1089
01:06:45.376 --> 01:06:47.837
Junior Olympic coach.
Ugh! I got nothing.

1090
01:06:47.921 --> 01:06:49.464
Keep looking.
There has got to be something.

1091
01:06:49.547 --> 01:06:52.842
Here he is with a bunch of dorks
at a gun show.

1092
01:06:55.929 --> 01:06:58.014
Hey, wait. Wait, wait.

1093
01:06:58.097 --> 01:07:00.850
"Released from duty
ten years ago."

1094
01:07:00.975 --> 01:07:02.393
"Most common subjects
of complaint

1095
01:07:02.519 --> 01:07:04.729
"are unlawful
search and seizure, harassment,

1096
01:07:04.812 --> 01:07:07.315
coercion or sexual threats."

1097
01:07:29.045 --> 01:07:31.005
Mom!

1098
01:07:35.843 --> 01:07:37.595
I got scared.

1099
01:07:37.679 --> 01:07:40.640
Yeah? Did you have a bad dream?

1100
01:07:40.723 --> 01:07:43.560
‐A snake was chasing me.
‐Oh.

1101
01:07:43.685 --> 01:07:45.645
‐Hey, Maddy.
‐Hm?

1102
01:07:45.687 --> 01:07:47.522
Did something happen at school?

1103
01:07:47.647 --> 01:07:52.569
We were making cards
for Parent's Day

1104
01:07:52.694 --> 01:07:56.406
and Jack ripped mine all up
'cause I don't have a daddy.

1105
01:07:56.531 --> 01:07:59.450
Oh, gosh, I'm so sorry
that happened to you.

1106
01:07:59.534 --> 01:08:02.036
Jack sounds like
he's kind of a bully.

1107
01:08:03.496 --> 01:08:07.584
You know, your dad was
kind of like Jack, like a bully.

1108
01:08:07.709 --> 01:08:09.002
That's why it's just us.

1109
01:08:09.127 --> 01:08:11.129
What did he do?

1110
01:08:12.005 --> 01:08:13.298
Uh...

1111
01:08:13.881 --> 01:08:16.301
Well...

1112
01:08:16.384 --> 01:08:21.055
I said no to him
and, and that made him angry.

1113
01:08:21.180 --> 01:08:23.975
Just 'cause you said no?

1114
01:08:24.058 --> 01:08:25.393
Yeah.

1115
01:08:26.144 --> 01:08:27.854
That's not okay.

1116
01:08:27.937 --> 01:08:29.564
No. It's not.

1117
01:08:29.689 --> 01:08:32.400
I'm so sorry
that happened to you, mama.

1118
01:08:34.193 --> 01:08:36.904
‐But you know what?
‐Hm?

1119
01:08:37.030 --> 01:08:39.407
I prayed
that I would feel better,

1120
01:08:39.532 --> 01:08:42.660
and my prayers got answered
because there you were.

1121
01:08:42.744 --> 01:08:47.081
And that was such a miracle,
Maddy, to get to be your mom.

1122
01:08:49.500 --> 01:08:51.711
But I don't want a bully
for a dad.

1123
01:08:52.670 --> 01:08:54.172
Yeah, me either.

1124
01:08:57.133 --> 01:08:59.969
Mama, am I the only one?

1125
01:09:00.094 --> 01:09:03.848
Yeah. You are my one and only.

1126
01:09:03.931 --> 01:09:07.352
I mean,
that has a daddy like that?

1127
01:09:08.811 --> 01:09:10.855
No, sweetie.

1128
01:09:10.938 --> 01:09:13.107
Then we have to help them, mama.

1129
01:09:15.860 --> 01:09:18.821
You are so right, my love.

1130
01:09:18.905 --> 01:09:23.159
Shihan Sensei said that
we're not fragile like a flower,

1131
01:09:23.242 --> 01:09:25.662
we're fragile like a bomb.

1132
01:09:26.788 --> 01:09:28.373
Yes, we are.

1133
01:09:51.145 --> 01:09:53.314
‐Love you, mama.
‐Love you, sweetie.

1134
01:09:53.439 --> 01:09:54.649
Bye.

1135
01:09:56.776 --> 01:09:59.487
North Carolina State Police.
How may I help you?

1136
01:09:59.570 --> 01:10:00.988
Yeah. Yeah‐yeah.

1137
01:10:01.114 --> 01:10:02.198
‐Love you.
‐Bye.

1138
01:10:02.281 --> 01:10:04.659
Uh, hi, I'm trying to determine
the status

1139
01:10:04.701 --> 01:10:07.662
of Officer Demetri Hogan's
discharge in 1997

1140
01:10:07.787 --> 01:10:09.747
from the Wilmington
Police Department.

1141
01:10:09.831 --> 01:10:12.750
Are you a relative or a legal
representative for Mr. Hogan?

1142
01:10:12.875 --> 01:10:14.043
Uh, no, but‐‐

1143
01:10:14.168 --> 01:10:15.044
Then you're not entitled

1144
01:10:15.128 --> 01:10:16.629
to that information, miss.

1145
01:10:18.673 --> 01:10:20.466
Okay, I'm just looking
for a corroboration

1146
01:10:20.550 --> 01:10:23.886
for a pending court case
for violence or sexual assault.

1147
01:10:24.011 --> 01:10:25.763
I'm sorry,
I've already told you

1148
01:10:25.847 --> 01:10:27.974
that I can't disclose
that information to you.

1149
01:10:28.015 --> 01:10:29.809
Okay, but I'm j...

1150
01:10:33.896 --> 01:10:35.189
Sorry.

1151
01:10:51.372 --> 01:10:54.208
Hm. That will do nicely.

1152
01:11:00.339 --> 01:11:03.801
Hey, um, I know you were
a Trooper back in the day.

1153
01:11:03.843 --> 01:11:05.636
You think you could get
some information for me

1154
01:11:05.720 --> 01:11:07.638
from law enforcement
in Wilmington?

1155
01:11:07.764 --> 01:11:12.101
Certainly possible.
But that's against the rules.

1156
01:11:12.185 --> 01:11:14.145
We're changing the rules.

1157
01:11:14.228 --> 01:11:15.980
Our guy's back.

1158
01:11:16.063 --> 01:11:17.064
The one who says
his kid goes here.

1159
01:11:17.190 --> 01:11:19.150
Yeah.

1160
01:11:19.192 --> 01:11:22.904
Alright.
Add extra security to campus.

1161
01:11:22.987 --> 01:11:25.907
‐For how long?
‐Indefinitely.

1162
01:11:53.017 --> 01:11:54.727
Maddy?

1163
01:11:54.852 --> 01:11:56.562
‐Where's Maddy?
‐She's in art class.

1164
01:11:56.646 --> 01:11:58.314
They just started
cleanin' up. What's wrong?

1165
01:11:58.356 --> 01:12:00.191
There's a man at the pick‐up
line. He's following me.

1166
01:12:00.274 --> 01:12:03.110
‐Do not let him into the school.
‐Is it this man?

1167
01:12:03.194 --> 01:12:05.613
He's been parked out front
claiming he's got a child here.

1168
01:12:05.696 --> 01:12:07.156
Yes. That... Wait. Why do...

1169
01:12:07.240 --> 01:12:08.366
‐Did he see her?
‐No, no.

1170
01:12:08.491 --> 01:12:10.868
She's been in class all day.
Who is he?

1171
01:12:10.993 --> 01:12:12.829
That is Maddy's father,
but she doesn't know him.

1172
01:12:12.954 --> 01:12:14.747
‐I thought you said that‐‐
‐I was assaulted.

1173
01:12:14.872 --> 01:12:17.917
I got pregnant. He's coming
after me for custody.

1174
01:12:17.959 --> 01:12:19.168
Custody? He‐he can't do that.

1175
01:12:19.293 --> 01:12:20.878
‐Yes, he can.
‐Okay. Alright.

1176
01:12:21.003 --> 01:12:23.172
Listen, we've already
notified the police, okay?

1177
01:12:23.256 --> 01:12:25.383
We've added extra security
to campus.

1178
01:12:25.508 --> 01:12:28.386
‐What else can we do to help?
‐You keep her safe.

1179
01:12:38.145 --> 01:12:39.438
Hey.

1180
01:12:42.400 --> 01:12:46.070
Defense counsel will likely
have it ruled inadmissible.

1181
01:12:46.195 --> 01:12:49.699
‐Is it useless?
‐Uh, I never said that.

1182
01:12:53.452 --> 01:12:56.914
As we've positively established
now Mr. Hogan's paternity,

1183
01:12:56.998 --> 01:12:59.667
the court will proceed
with the custody hearing.

1184
01:12:59.709 --> 01:13:01.252
And is Mr. Hogan
still joining us

1185
01:13:01.335 --> 01:13:03.838
on teleconference
from North Carolina again?

1186
01:13:03.963 --> 01:13:04.630
Yes, Your Honor.

1187
01:13:04.755 --> 01:13:06.299
I expect my petitioners in court

1188
01:13:06.424 --> 01:13:08.092
for their hearings. Mr. Hogan...

1189
01:13:08.175 --> 01:13:11.137
Is it your employment
that keeps you out of my court?

1190
01:13:11.262 --> 01:13:12.722
‐Yes, Your Honor.
‐Uh...

1191
01:13:12.805 --> 01:13:15.808
Just checking, Your Honor.

1192
01:13:15.933 --> 01:13:17.310
Uh, we were led to believe

1193
01:13:17.393 --> 01:13:20.104
that, uh, Mr. Hogan's business
was closed

1194
01:13:20.187 --> 01:13:21.397
and that
he was currently unemployed.

1195
01:13:21.522 --> 01:13:23.274
I'm between jobs.

1196
01:13:23.357 --> 01:13:24.650
You know,
it's been hard to find work‐‐

1197
01:13:24.734 --> 01:13:26.360
I'm not interested in your

1198
01:13:26.444 --> 01:13:28.321
unemployment woes, Mr. Hogan.

1199
01:13:28.446 --> 01:13:30.656
Historically, a father
seeking parental rights

1200
01:13:30.740 --> 01:13:34.452
shows up for the hearings.
North Carolina is not that far.

1201
01:13:34.535 --> 01:13:37.830
Oh, uh, just on the subject
of locality, Your Honor,

1202
01:13:37.872 --> 01:13:40.374
we have, uh,
photographic evidence

1203
01:13:40.458 --> 01:13:43.461
that actually shows Mr. Hogan
in Atlanta,

1204
01:13:43.586 --> 01:13:45.630
specifically,
and without permission,

1205
01:13:45.713 --> 01:13:48.382
at the, uh, uh, school
of Ms. Thompson‐‐

1206
01:13:48.466 --> 01:13:49.800
Objection, Your Honor.

1207
01:13:49.926 --> 01:13:51.469
The counselor's
constant interruptions

1208
01:13:51.552 --> 01:13:53.971
are brazen attempts to prejudice
you against my client.

1209
01:13:54.055 --> 01:13:55.306
Merely trying to clarify

1210
01:13:55.431 --> 01:13:57.683
Mr. Hogan's whereabouts
for the court.

1211
01:13:57.767 --> 01:14:00.937
Sustained.
Sit down, please, Mr. Moss.

1212
01:14:01.020 --> 01:14:04.941
Mr. Hogan, I won't allow
your absence again. Understood?

1213
01:14:11.864 --> 01:14:15.451
Counsel, can you advise
your client to answer me?

1214
01:14:15.534 --> 01:14:17.453
Uh, yes, sir. I hear you.

1215
01:14:17.536 --> 01:14:19.497
It's just, last time
you interrupted me and‐‐

1216
01:14:19.580 --> 01:14:22.375
I'll interrupt you
anytime I like.

1217
01:14:22.500 --> 01:14:23.834
‐We'll advise our client.
‐Your Honor.

1218
01:14:23.918 --> 01:14:26.003
I'd like to alert the court
to new discovery

1219
01:14:26.087 --> 01:14:27.296
about Mr. Hogan's past

1220
01:14:27.421 --> 01:14:31.092
as it pertains
to a custodial hearing.

1221
01:14:31.175 --> 01:14:32.426
‐Proceed.
‐My client..

1222
01:14:32.510 --> 01:14:34.136
Has new documentary evidence

1223
01:14:34.261 --> 01:14:37.306
that, uh, Mr. Hogan's
law enforcement discharge

1224
01:14:37.390 --> 01:14:38.808
was actually
due to sexual assault,

1225
01:14:38.891 --> 01:14:41.143
which is reasonable to discuss
with regard

1226
01:14:41.227 --> 01:14:45.106
to Ms. Thompson's still open
rape case against Mr. Hogan.

1227
01:14:46.983 --> 01:14:49.568
Both counselors,
please approach the bench.

1228
01:14:52.947 --> 01:14:55.741
Your Honor, I must object,
we're here for a custody hearing

1229
01:14:55.866 --> 01:14:58.494
in family court,
this is not a criminal court.

1230
01:14:58.577 --> 01:14:59.912
My client has waited
seven years‐‐

1231
01:15:00.037 --> 01:15:01.539
You don't need to tell me
what court

1232
01:15:01.664 --> 01:15:03.332
I am presiding over, counsel.

1233
01:15:03.457 --> 01:15:05.710
Can someone please...
What's going on?

1234
01:15:05.835 --> 01:15:08.421
What's happening?
I‐I‐I can't hear.

1235
01:15:10.464 --> 01:15:13.467
Before we proceed
with the custody case,

1236
01:15:13.551 --> 01:15:15.469
I think it prudent
that we hear evidence

1237
01:15:15.553 --> 01:15:17.763
to determine
whether or not a rape occurred.

1238
01:15:17.847 --> 01:15:20.391
Your Honor,
Georgia law is very clear.

1239
01:15:20.516 --> 01:15:23.019
There is no legislation
stopping a sexual assailant

1240
01:15:23.144 --> 01:15:25.813
from claiming parental rights
of a child.

1241
01:15:25.938 --> 01:15:28.816
Individuals are free and clear
to pursue custody

1242
01:15:28.899 --> 01:15:31.318
or visitation rights
of biological offspring.

1243
01:15:31.402 --> 01:15:34.196
Excuse me, I can't hear,
excuse me‐‐

1244
01:15:34.280 --> 01:15:38.617
Mr. Hogan, you'll speak when
you're spoken to and not before.

1245
01:15:38.701 --> 01:15:42.121
Counselor, thank you
for the lesson in Georgia Law.

1246
01:15:42.204 --> 01:15:46.083
My job is to assess
the suitability of a parent

1247
01:15:46.208 --> 01:15:50.129
and I can use any means
at my disposal I so choose.

1248
01:15:50.212 --> 01:15:54.091
Please set an evidentiary
hearing for three weeks' time.

1249
01:15:54.175 --> 01:15:56.010
Court stands adjourned.

1250
01:16:01.515 --> 01:16:02.475
This is good.

1251
01:16:32.838 --> 01:16:34.465
Oh, yeah.

1252
01:16:34.507 --> 01:16:38.135
watch me face the sun

1253
01:16:38.177 --> 01:16:42.389
and you can't stop me

1254
01:16:42.515 --> 01:16:44.975
Mama, my flower's
crushing my ears.

1255
01:16:45.017 --> 01:16:49.146
Oh! Well, we can't have that,
can we, my little sunflower?

1256
01:16:49.230 --> 01:16:50.439
There.

1257
01:16:50.523 --> 01:16:52.900
I hope I don't forget the words.

1258
01:16:54.276 --> 01:16:56.362
Not fragile like a flower...

1259
01:16:56.487 --> 01:16:58.197
‐Fragile like a bomb.
‐Fragile...bomb!

1260
01:16:58.322 --> 01:16:59.949
That's right. Okay.

1261
01:17:03.410 --> 01:17:06.872
Excuse me, um, can you, uh,
take her onto the stage, please?

1262
01:17:06.997 --> 01:17:08.624
Do not let her
out of your sight.

1263
01:17:08.707 --> 01:17:11.377
‐Okay, you're gonna be great.
‐Mom, you can't leave.

1264
01:17:11.502 --> 01:17:13.838
‐No, I'll be right here.
‐Okay.

1265
01:17:13.963 --> 01:17:15.214
Okay.

1266
01:17:39.530 --> 01:17:41.740
Didn't we make
a beautiful flower?

1267
01:17:45.202 --> 01:17:46.662
Thank you for keeping her,

1268
01:17:46.787 --> 01:17:49.874
for loving
what some would call unlovable.

1269
01:17:52.835 --> 01:17:57.548
Desire, passion,
it all gets distorted.

1270
01:17:57.673 --> 01:17:59.884
We just see it differently
is all.

1271
01:18:01.468 --> 01:18:03.554
Fate brought us together.

1272
01:18:03.679 --> 01:18:04.930
When you decided
to have that baby,

1273
01:18:05.014 --> 01:18:07.099
you kept me in your life
forever, and hers.

1274
01:18:07.183 --> 01:18:11.604
You raped me.
We're not yours to keep.

1275
01:18:14.064 --> 01:18:16.692
You know, they say that kids
don't have any real memories

1276
01:18:16.817 --> 01:18:19.403
until they're seven.

1277
01:18:19.528 --> 01:18:21.447
Seven.

1278
01:18:21.530 --> 01:18:25.701
watch me face the sun

1279
01:18:25.826 --> 01:18:30.915
and you can't stop me

1280
01:18:31.790 --> 01:18:35.044
She could know her daddy now.

1281
01:18:35.169 --> 01:18:38.672
We could set things right
for her and for us.

1282
01:18:38.797 --> 01:18:41.759
‐We can start over.
‐No.

1283
01:18:43.802 --> 01:18:45.471
There's that word again.

1284
01:18:45.554 --> 01:18:48.057
No is a complete sentence.

1285
01:18:52.186 --> 01:18:55.773
What happened between us, well,
it doesn't happen to everyone.

1286
01:18:55.856 --> 01:18:58.484
It's what nature wanted.

1287
01:19:01.779 --> 01:19:03.239
I‐I can't wait to hold her.

1288
01:19:03.364 --> 01:19:05.366
You stay away from her!

1289
01:19:14.792 --> 01:19:17.670
You've been workin' out
in self‐defense, I see.

1290
01:19:18.337 --> 01:19:20.005
Mama!

1291
01:19:20.130 --> 01:19:22.716
I can still see you under me,
trembling...

1292
01:19:22.841 --> 01:19:24.969
I'm not trembling anymore.

1293
01:19:26.262 --> 01:19:27.846
Oh, yeah, you are.

1294
01:19:28.681 --> 01:19:30.224
Mama!

1295
01:19:30.349 --> 01:19:34.353
You know, I thought motherhood
might have changed you.

1296
01:19:35.562 --> 01:19:36.855
It has.

1297
01:19:38.649 --> 01:19:40.734
I can still see you under me,
trembling...

1298
01:19:40.859 --> 01:19:43.237
I'm not trembling anymore.

1299
01:19:46.407 --> 01:19:47.408
‐Give me that!
‐Ah!

1300
01:19:47.533 --> 01:19:49.034
‐Mama!
‐Maddy!

1301
01:19:49.159 --> 01:19:50.494
‐Maddy, I'm your father.
‐Mama!

1302
01:19:50.619 --> 01:19:53.122
‐Maddy!
‐She doesn't have a father.

1303
01:19:53.205 --> 01:19:56.292
‐Look straight ahead.
‐It's alright, it's alright.

1304
01:20:08.387 --> 01:20:09.763
In the matter
of Hogan and Thompson,

1305
01:20:09.847 --> 01:20:11.265
we've brought forth the parties.

1306
01:20:11.348 --> 01:20:12.725
The court asks
for the petitioner.

1307
01:20:12.850 --> 01:20:14.560
We are unable to reach him,
Your Honor.

1308
01:20:14.685 --> 01:20:16.145
There's no note
that a teleconference

1309
01:20:16.228 --> 01:20:19.523
is needed for today.
Is he in town?

1310
01:20:19.606 --> 01:20:21.275
Not to my knowledge, Your Honor.

1311
01:20:21.358 --> 01:20:22.609
So he's a no‐show?

1312
01:20:22.693 --> 01:20:25.154
Your Honor,
may I address the court?

1313
01:20:25.237 --> 01:20:29.325
Uh, we have a police report
that places Mr. Hogan

1314
01:20:29.408 --> 01:20:31.160
in Maddy Thompson's school

1315
01:20:31.285 --> 01:20:33.829
where he had just threatened
Ms. Thompson a week ago.

1316
01:20:33.912 --> 01:20:35.914
‐May I approach?
‐Yes.

1317
01:20:44.757 --> 01:20:46.884
Thank you, counselor.

1318
01:20:48.677 --> 01:20:50.846
Did petitioner
ask for a postponement?

1319
01:20:50.971 --> 01:20:51.847
No, Your Honor.

1320
01:20:51.972 --> 01:20:53.515
I could ask for a civil arrest

1321
01:20:53.640 --> 01:20:55.225
or issue a capias.

1322
01:20:55.309 --> 01:20:58.437
Has your client indicated
he wants to continue the case?

1323
01:21:01.774 --> 01:21:03.275
Uh, may I speak, Your Honor?

1324
01:21:03.359 --> 01:21:05.361
On what grounds
does she want to speak?

1325
01:21:05.486 --> 01:21:07.488
The court has made time
to hear this case.

1326
01:21:07.613 --> 01:21:10.282
In light of your client's
continued disrespect,

1327
01:21:10.366 --> 01:21:11.700
I'll allow it.

1328
01:21:11.825 --> 01:21:13.952
You may speak, Ms. Thompson.

1329
01:21:17.206 --> 01:21:21.210
The worst part
of being raped, uh, even more

1330
01:21:21.335 --> 01:21:25.506
than my head getting slammed
against my kitchen counter

1331
01:21:25.631 --> 01:21:27.800
or the sound of my ribs cracking

1332
01:21:27.883 --> 01:21:30.719
as I was thrown
over my dining‐room table

1333
01:21:30.803 --> 01:21:34.723
or the smell of my blood
on the floor...

1334
01:21:34.848 --> 01:21:37.476
is that it is still happening...

1335
01:21:39.019 --> 01:21:42.481
every single day.

1336
01:21:42.564 --> 01:21:45.234
Every time I close my eyes,

1337
01:21:45.359 --> 01:21:47.653
every time I hear someone
behind me that I don't know,

1338
01:21:47.778 --> 01:21:49.571
it just replays

1339
01:21:49.696 --> 01:21:52.699
over and over and over.

1340
01:21:52.825 --> 01:21:56.161
And now today
I am forced to stand here

1341
01:21:56.245 --> 01:21:58.372
and fight him off yet again

1342
01:21:58.497 --> 01:22:00.457
because there are no laws
in place to protect me,

1343
01:22:00.541 --> 01:22:04.920
and more importantly, protect
my child from this violent man.

1344
01:22:05.003 --> 01:22:07.506
With your permission,
Your Honor, I would like to play

1345
01:22:07.631 --> 01:22:09.425
a recording of Mr. Hogan

1346
01:22:09.508 --> 01:22:12.302
the last time he threatened me
at my daughter's school.

1347
01:22:12.428 --> 01:22:13.804
I object, Your Honor.

1348
01:22:13.887 --> 01:22:15.514
I'll allow it.

1349
01:22:20.352 --> 01:22:22.896
I can still see you under me,
trembling...

1350
01:22:23.021 --> 01:22:25.482
I'm not trembling anymore.

1351
01:22:27.776 --> 01:22:31.196
Thank you, Ms. Thompson.
You may sit down.

1352
01:22:31.280 --> 01:22:34.658
Counselor, is there anything
you'd like to say to the court

1353
01:22:34.741 --> 01:22:36.952
before I rule on this matter?

1354
01:22:37.911 --> 01:22:40.998
In the absence of my client...

1355
01:22:41.123 --> 01:22:43.876
I have nothing further
to add at this time.

1356
01:22:43.959 --> 01:22:46.628
Noting the petitioner's absence
and non‐response

1357
01:22:46.753 --> 01:22:49.339
and that there is no request
for a postponement,

1358
01:22:49.465 --> 01:22:51.967
the custody request in
the matter of Hogan and Thompson

1359
01:22:52.092 --> 01:22:53.469
is formally dismissed

1360
01:22:53.552 --> 01:22:56.472
and the custody case
is closed with prejudice.

1361
01:22:56.555 --> 01:23:00.476
Further, the court acknowledges
that the rape case remains open

1362
01:23:00.601 --> 01:23:04.021
in the criminal court
of Charlotte, North Carolina.

1363
01:23:04.146 --> 01:23:05.772
Court stands adjourned.

1364
01:23:14.865 --> 01:23:17.659
Congratulations.
This is a big win.

1365
01:23:18.869 --> 01:23:20.287
I didn't win.

1366
01:23:20.370 --> 01:23:22.748
The judge closed the case
with prejudice.

1367
01:23:22.873 --> 01:23:25.334
That means
it can't be opened again, ever.

1368
01:23:25.459 --> 01:23:27.336
What about the next raped mother
on the docket

1369
01:23:27.461 --> 01:23:29.755
and the next
and the next and the next?

1370
01:23:29.838 --> 01:23:31.715
These laws are medieval.

1371
01:23:32.799 --> 01:23:34.968
"Change is the law of life

1372
01:23:35.093 --> 01:23:38.514
"and those who only look
to the past or the present

1373
01:23:38.639 --> 01:23:40.891
are certain to miss the future."

1374
01:23:40.974 --> 01:23:42.684
Well said, Mr. Moss.

1375
01:23:42.809 --> 01:23:45.229
