-[Mary] I was always told that
every story has two sides.

6
00:00:28.542 --> 00:00:31.083
But for my mama, grandma
and me...

7
00:00:31.208 --> 00:00:33.000
there were three.

8
00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:34.750
And they all led to
what would become

9
00:00:34.833 --> 00:00:37.167
the worst night of our lives.

-[Veronica] Willard...

15
00:01:09.292 --> 00:01:10.583
-You think I wouldn't find out
what really happened?

16
00:01:10.583 --> 00:01:12.083
-[Ella] Oh for the love
of God, Willard.

17
00:01:12.083 --> 00:01:13.000
Not in front of your kids.

18
00:01:13.125 --> 00:01:14.250
-My kids?

19
00:01:14.542 --> 00:01:17.125
Now I can't trust this slut
to take care of my Jeep.

20
00:01:17.125 --> 00:01:18.167
-[Ella] Mary...

21
00:01:18.250 --> 00:01:19.833
-Why trust her
with anything else?

-[Ella] It's okay.

24
00:01:22.083 --> 00:01:23.083
-[Veronica] Try and calm down.

25
00:01:23.667 --> 00:01:25.333
-[Willard] Oh, is that what you
want? You want me to calm down?

26
00:01:25.417 --> 00:01:26.917
-[Ella] Sammy, Mary, come here.

27
00:01:27.042 --> 00:01:27.792
-[Veronica] No, you got things
twisted.

28
00:01:28.125 --> 00:01:29.917
-[Willard] Now enough
with the lies!

29
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:32.167
-[Veronica] I'm not lying.
Please.

30
00:01:32.250 --> 00:01:33.500
-[Willard] People all over town
are saying

31
00:01:33.542 --> 00:01:35.208
there's another man
crashed my Jeep.

32
00:01:35.292 --> 00:01:36.167
-[Veronica] No, no, no.
Just listen.

33
00:01:36.250 --> 00:01:38.000
-[Willard] Exactly as I thought.

34
00:01:38.042 --> 00:01:39.500
-[Veronica] Willard please,
just listen.

35
00:01:39.542 --> 00:01:41.125
-[Willard] As if you were being
faithful to me

36
00:01:41.125 --> 00:01:42.583
when I was on my trucking runs.

37
00:01:42.667 --> 00:01:45.667
-[Veronica] No. No, Willard.
Please just listen.

38
00:01:45.708 --> 00:01:46.250
-[Willard] Now come here!

00:01:46.542 --> 00:01:48.667
-[Veronica] Willard, no!
No. Stop.

40
00:01:48.750 --> 00:01:50.542
-[Willard] It's time to remind
everybody who's in charge.

41
00:01:50.667 --> 00:01:51.167
-[Sammy] Daddy.

42
00:01:51.417 --> 00:01:53.208
-[Veronica] Willard, no!
No, stop.

43
00:01:53.208 --> 00:01:54.958
-[Willard] How many men been
inside my Jeep?

44
00:01:54.958 --> 00:01:55.917
-[Veronica] Please!

45
00:01:56.208 --> 00:01:57.917
-[Willard] How many men
been inside you?

46

50
00:02:15.042 --> 00:02:16.292
-Just give me a minute.

51
00:02:17.750 --> 00:02:19.958
-Mama?

52
00:02:20.042 --> 00:02:21.333
-Leave me be, Mary.

53
00:02:23.292 --> 00:02:24.625

it's okay.

-[operator] 911, what's the
nature of your emergency?

57
00:02:45.833 --> 00:02:47.125
-911? [sniffs]

58
00:02:47.125 --> 00:02:48.125
-[operator] That's right.

59
00:02:48.208 --> 00:02:49.958
-I wanna report a murder.

60
00:02:50.042 --> 00:02:52.167
-[operator] Okay. Um...

61
00:02:52.292 --> 00:02:55.167
-[sniffs]
I just shot my husband.

62
00:02:55.250 --> 00:02:57.125
- [operator] Can you give me
your address?

[overlapping conversation]

00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:04.208
-Go, go.

66
00:03:04.292 --> 00:03:05.375
To the back.

67
00:03:14.750 --> 00:03:15.833
-Okay.

68
00:03:19.542 --> 00:03:20.417
Go.

69
00:03:20.833 --> 00:03:21.417
Where's the vic?

70
00:03:21.708 --> 00:03:22.125
-Please, we're not
the ones who...

71
00:03:22.583 --> 00:03:23.625
-Was this weapon used tonight?

72
00:03:25.792 --> 00:03:26.958
-Got a body.

73
00:03:26.958 --> 00:03:28.167
-Call it in.

74
00:03:28.292 --> 00:03:29.708
Was that rifle used tonight?

75
00:03:30.708 --> 00:03:34.292
-She can't hear you.
She's deaf in one ear.

76
00:03:36.125 --> 00:03:37.917
-Who are you?

77
00:03:38.042 --> 00:03:40.583
-I'm... I'm the one
who called 911.

78
00:03:40.708 --> 00:03:41.542
Took you long enough.

79
00:03:41.833 --> 00:03:43.250
I've been out trying to get help
from a neighbor.

80
00:03:45.375 --> 00:03:48.000
It's okay, Mary.
Mama's here.

81
00:03:48.083 --> 00:03:49.458
-You called 911?

82
00:03:51.375 --> 00:03:53.417
-Only I didn't tell
everything true.

83
00:03:57.708 --> 00:03:59.167
It wasn't me who shot
my husband,

84
00:03:59.208 --> 00:04:00.708
it was my daughter, Mary.

85
00:04:04.667 --> 00:04:05.833
-No.

86
00:04:05.917 --> 00:04:09.000
-Sheriff. Victim's still alive.

87
00:04:09.083 --> 00:04:12.208

[background conversation]

89
00:04:28.208 --> 00:04:30.792
-It ain't right they're not
in a holding cell.

90
00:04:30.792 --> 00:04:34.500
-Why don't you find out
if we got a corpse first?

91
00:04:34.542 --> 00:04:35.750
Go check with the doctor.

92
00:04:37.792 --> 00:04:39.625
-Willard's my husband
so shouldn't I be knowing

93
00:04:39.625 --> 00:04:40.750
what's going on around here?

94
00:04:40.833 --> 00:04:41.875
-Veronica.

95
00:04:41.875 --> 00:04:42.667
-What?

96
00:04:43.625 --> 00:04:46.417
These cops don't fool me
with their fake concern.

97
00:04:46.500 --> 00:04:48.458
Ain't nobody came to our rescue
for all these years

98
00:04:48.458 --> 00:04:50.208
which is exactly why we had...

99
00:04:50.292 --> 00:04:53.542
-Why you had to what?
Veronica?

100
00:04:53.625 --> 00:04:54.500
-Sheriff.

101
00:04:55.542 --> 00:04:59.958
Victim didn't make it.
Willard Simms is dead.

102
00:04:59.958 --> 00:05:00.625
-[Ella sighs]

103
00:05:01.250 --> 00:05:02.875
-Let's move these three
down to the station.

104
00:05:07.333 --> 00:05:09.208
-I told you it wasn't me
who shot my husband.

105
00:05:09.292 --> 00:05:12.250
-Sheriff ordered gunshot residue
tests for all three of you.

106
00:05:12.333 --> 00:05:13.917
-All three?

107
00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:15.042
-You ain't gonna find nothing.

108
00:05:26.208 --> 00:05:27.458
-Who's next?

109
00:05:40.250 --> 00:05:41.583
Next.

110
00:05:42.708 --> 00:05:43.750
-Mama?

111
00:05:43.750 --> 00:05:45.417
-You got nothing to worry about,
Mary.

112
00:06:06.375 --> 00:06:09.583
[dramatic music intensifies]

113
00:06:11.292 --> 00:06:12.708
-Okay, thanks.

114
00:06:14.708 --> 00:06:15.750
And?

115
00:06:16.125 --> 00:06:18.417
-Two of them handled the rifle
that killed Willard Simms.

116
00:06:20.292 --> 00:06:21.625
-[sighs]

117
00:06:21.625 --> 00:06:24.000
Which means two
different explanations.

118
00:06:28.542 --> 00:06:29.917
-You're free to go.

119
00:06:41.958 --> 00:06:44.042
-I'm arresting you for
the murder of Willard Simms.

120
00:06:46.542 --> 00:06:47.917
-I wanna sue for
false imprisonment.

121
00:06:47.917 --> 00:06:49.583
-You have the right
to remain silent.

122
00:06:49.667 --> 00:06:51.500
Anything you say can and will be
used against you

123
00:06:51.583 --> 00:06:52.958
in a court of law.

124
00:06:55.708 --> 00:06:57.625
-Do we get to go home now?

125
00:06:58.458 --> 00:06:59.750
-Not exactly.

126
00:07:04.042 --> 00:07:07.083
-I told you... Mary's
the one who done it.

127
00:07:07.083 --> 00:07:08.250
-Mary.
-Mama.

128
00:07:08.917 --> 00:07:11.708
-Don't worry, Mary.
I'm gonna tell ´em everything.

129
00:07:11.792 --> 00:07:13.000
-I wanna tell everything too.

130
00:07:13.250 --> 00:07:14.875
-You shouldn't say anything
until you've been assigned

131
00:07:14.875 --> 00:07:16.542
a court appointed attorney.

132
00:07:17.542 --> 00:07:18.667
-That the same as a lawyer?

133
00:07:19.042 --> 00:07:23.000
-It's exactly the same, Mary.
I'm here for your benefit.

134
00:07:23.042 --> 00:07:25.833
To see you through the upcoming
trial and its outcome.

135
00:07:25.917 --> 00:07:29.333
-Why do I need a... court
appointed attorney

136
00:07:29.458 --> 00:07:30.708
if I already know
to tell the truth?

137
00:07:30.833 --> 00:07:32.667
-Well that's the thing, Mary.

138
00:07:32.750 --> 00:07:34.500
I already told them,
you're not gonna testify.

139
00:07:34.625 --> 00:07:36.667
You're not even gonna be
in the courtroom.

140
00:07:36.750 --> 00:07:41.500
-What? I was there
when Willard was shot.

141
00:07:41.583 --> 00:07:45.208
-I'm gonna suggest
that you never repeat that.

142
00:07:47.792 --> 00:07:49.875
-No one knows what happened
the way that I do.

143
00:07:52.333 --> 00:07:55.542
I'm the one been living
this nightmare for 10 years.

144
00:07:55.708 --> 00:07:57.292
-It's important for
everyone concerned,

145
00:07:57.375 --> 00:08:00.542
including the deceased,
that you share every detail.

146
00:08:00.667 --> 00:08:04.000
We need to know not only
who killed Willard Simms

147
00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:07.917
but also the events that led up
to his shooting.

148
00:08:08.042 --> 00:08:12.542
Don't be afraid, Veronica.
Tell us everything.

149
00:08:13.417 --> 00:08:18.250
-Who's the most beautiful baby
girl in the whole wide world?

150
00:08:18.333 --> 00:08:19.708
You are, Mary Bailey.

151
00:08:19.708 --> 00:08:21.792
I'm gonna make sure you
don't want for nothing.

152
00:08:22.625 --> 00:08:24.042
-That mean you're gonna
start helping

153
00:08:24.125 --> 00:08:25.875
with expenses around here?

154
00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:27.875
-You know I'd do anything
for my baby girl, Mama.

155
00:08:27.958 --> 00:08:29.375
-Except get her father
to leave his wife

156
00:08:29.458 --> 00:08:30.917
and admit that Mary's his baby.

157
00:08:30.917 --> 00:08:33.417
-I told you I know what I did
was sin.

158
00:08:33.542 --> 00:08:35.708
That don't make Mary one.
Look at her.

159
00:08:36.917 --> 00:08:39.375
I'm gonna find Mary
a new daddy.

160
00:08:39.375 --> 00:08:41.708
A man who takes pride
in family.

161
00:08:41.708 --> 00:08:43.875
-Ain't no such thing

-There you are!

163
00:08:46.875 --> 00:08:49.000
I'll figure something out Mama,
you'll see.

164
00:08:49.042 --> 00:08:52.500
For you, for me...
and especially for Mary.

165

-You still got some growing up
to do, Veronica.

166
00:08:54.708 --> 00:08:57.875
Just try to do it with the right
kind of people this time.

167
00:08:57.875 --> 00:08:59.833
-Just seems like being
a volunteer counselor

168
00:08:59.833 --> 00:09:02.375
at church summer camp's
a good place to start.

169
00:09:02.375 --> 00:09:03.958
-Maybe.

170
00:09:04.042 --> 00:09:07.500
But if anybody could screw
that up it'd be you.

171

Whatever you do
when you grow up...

-And now we'll head downstairs

00:09:19.708 --> 00:09:21.625
and I'll show you the rooms
for arts and crafts

176

and indoor play when
the weather's not so nice.

177
00:09:27.000 --> 00:09:29.208
And Veronica, I'll pair you
with this young man.

178
00:09:34.208 --> 00:09:37.292
I'll leave you both to it then.
Be good now.

are meant to be as one?

-Are you for real?

-Why do you ask?
Do I seem too good to be true?

[both laugh]

-Do we have to bring baby Mary
with us everywhere we go?

191
00:10:10.292 --> 00:10:12.583
-You'll understand one day
when you have a baby.

192
00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:15.542
Ain't nothing like it, Susan.

193
00:10:15.542 --> 00:10:16.542
-Count me out.

194
00:10:16.833 --> 00:10:18.083
I'm gonna move away
and never look back

195
00:10:18.208 --> 00:10:20.667
once I find me someone
who's as old as he is rich.

196
00:10:20.750 --> 00:10:23.542
-Better off relying on ourselves
than any man.

197
00:10:23.542 --> 00:10:25.667
-Well, don't that depend
on the man?

198

-Maybe.

it's my treat.

Not used to people being nice
to you, taking care of you?

It's time you realize

how special you are,
Veronica Bailey.

208

I'm the one who's gonna make
sure of it.

Ain't that right,

to take photos of her
and the baby.

She's gotten kinda possessive
with Mary.

and beautiful to have a kid.

no fraternizing

between camp counselors?

222

-He also said no drinking.

Oh. Can I get an amen?

-[crowd in unison]
Amen!

to stop telling everyone
you got a kid.

227

-Well, those are my friends.

They spend plenty of time
with Mary.

thinking you're a slut?

It's what I hear other people
saying, that's all.

I only wanna protect you.

of showing it sometimes.

322
00:16:50.833 --> 00:16:55.542
I don't care what your mama says
or Susan or anyone else neither.

323
00:16:55.625 --> 00:16:57.125
I'm in it for you and me.

324
00:16:58.667 --> 00:16:59.708
-And Mary?

325
00:16:59.833 --> 00:17:00.792
-[chuckles]

326
00:17:01.042 --> 00:17:03.875
I'm trying to buy her a cake,
ain't I?

327
00:17:03.958 --> 00:17:05.500
-I don't know, Willard.

328
00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:09.333
Who says we're not wrong
for each other

329
00:17:09.333 --> 00:17:11.125
after what happened last year
at church?

330
00:17:11.208 --> 00:17:16.208
-I apologized for that.
I even made up with Todd.

331
00:17:16.292 --> 00:17:20.167
You forget you're the only one
who can save me from myself.

332
00:17:24.375 --> 00:17:30.333
-I, Veronica Jo Bailey,
take thee Willard Simms

333
00:17:30.375 --> 00:17:32.542
to be my lawfully
wedded husband.

334
00:17:32.542 --> 00:17:35.417
To have and to hold
from this day forward,

335
00:17:35.417 --> 00:17:39.292
for better, for worse,
for richer, for poorer,

336
00:17:39.375 --> 00:17:42.667
in sickness and in health,
to love and to cherish...

337
00:17:45.625 --> 00:17:46.667
No wait, I remember.

338
00:17:46.750 --> 00:17:48.250
[both chuckle]

339
00:17:48.375 --> 00:17:52.333
To love and to cherish
´till death do us part.

340
00:17:57.083 --> 00:18:00.250
-I can't say that Willard
wasn't trying.

341
00:18:00.333 --> 00:18:02.417
Um... keeping us fed.

342
00:18:04.542 --> 00:18:05.750
Paying the bills.

343
00:18:07.208 --> 00:18:08.792
Making me feel protected.

344
00:18:09.833 --> 00:18:13.583
He was doing little things
to show his affection.

345
00:18:13.583 --> 00:18:15.500
-For me?
-Yeah.

346
00:18:15.667 --> 00:18:20.958
-But... Willard...
he had another side.

347
00:18:21.042 --> 00:18:23.667
One that would show up
without warning.

348
00:18:23.750 --> 00:18:27.250
He blamed it on overreacting
when he was scared

349
00:18:27.375 --> 00:18:29.625
on account of him being abused
when he was little.

350
00:18:33.333 --> 00:18:35.250
Willard always promised
to do better.

351
00:18:35.333 --> 00:18:38.458
That, uh... that he was
gonna change.

352
00:18:38.542 --> 00:18:41.917
And I prayed on it,
I hoped on it.

353
00:18:42.042 --> 00:18:43.125
I committed myself to it

354
00:18:43.500 --> 00:18:45.500
because of the wedding vows
I took in front of God.

355
00:18:46.708 --> 00:18:50.042
But... Willard's promises

356
00:18:50.042 --> 00:18:52.583
never seemed to take
for very long.

357
00:18:52.708 --> 00:18:53.667
-Mama?

358
00:18:53.750 --> 00:18:55.583
-Oh Mary. Hi.

359
00:18:59.042 --> 00:19:00.167
Hi Mama.

360
00:19:00.250 --> 00:19:02.208
-Do something to deserve
that shiner?

361
00:19:02.208 --> 00:19:04.083
-Nobody deserves
to be beat, Mama.

362
00:19:04.208 --> 00:19:05.375
Not even me.

363
00:19:05.375 --> 00:19:06.667
We watch what we say
around Mary.

364
00:19:06.667 --> 00:19:07.583
-Well here's an idea.

365
00:19:07.875 --> 00:19:09.333
Why don't you take her to live
with you and Willard

366
00:19:09.458 --> 00:19:11.333
so I don't have to raise
her anymore?

367
00:19:11.333 --> 00:19:13.458
-You know there's not
enough room at Willard's.

368
00:19:13.458 --> 00:19:15.833
It's not always safe for Mary
to be around him.

369
00:19:15.958 --> 00:19:16.958
Hey, you know what?

370
00:19:17.250 --> 00:19:18.625
Why don't we pick out
your favorite color

371
00:19:18.708 --> 00:19:19.958
and we can paint
each other's nails?

372
00:19:19.958 --> 00:19:20.917
-Mm-hmm.

373
00:19:22.708 --> 00:19:23.750
-[gasps]

374
00:19:23.833 --> 00:19:25.500
Red's my favorite color too.

375
00:19:25.625 --> 00:19:27.833
Why don't you wait for me
downstairs, okay?

376
00:19:27.875 --> 00:19:29.250
-Okay.
-Okay.

377
00:19:32.417 --> 00:19:33.625
Mary's here for her own safety

378
00:19:33.708 --> 00:19:35.208
'till I can find a way
to leave Willard

379
00:19:35.292 --> 00:19:37.167
so that he doesn't maybe
come after me or Mary

380
00:19:37.250 --> 00:19:38.542
or... or even you.

381
00:19:39.125 --> 00:19:41.333
-Willard Simms don't scare me.

382
00:19:41.333 --> 00:19:43.208
What I do find frightening
is that a child I raised

383
00:19:43.292 --> 00:19:45.750
would grow up to be like you.

384
00:19:45.875 --> 00:19:46.917
[sighs]

385
00:19:47.208 --> 00:19:48.583
Turns out I'm not the only
one who's disappointed

386
00:19:48.667 --> 00:19:50.542
in the kind of person
you turned out to be.

387
00:19:55.500 --> 00:19:58.625
-Nothing a little nail polish
can't fix. Right?

388
00:19:58.708 --> 00:19:59.792
-Pretty.

389
00:19:59.875 --> 00:20:01.583
-Yes you are, Mary Bailey.

390
00:20:03.333 --> 00:20:06.792
Don't you ever forget how much
I love you. Okay?

391
00:20:06.875 --> 00:20:10.750
Don't forget that one day...
we're gonna be together.

392
00:20:12.167 --> 00:20:12.917
-Yeah?

393
00:20:13.042 --> 00:20:15.125
-Mm-hmm. Yeah.

394
00:20:15.208 --> 00:20:18.083
Safe and happy
without anyone telling us

395
00:20:18.167 --> 00:20:20.000
how to live our lives.

396
00:20:20.083 --> 00:20:23.292
It's just you and me, baby girl.
That's all that matters.

397
00:20:23.375 --> 00:20:25.333
There we go.

398
00:20:25.375 --> 00:20:26.333
[intense dramatic music]

399
00:20:30.375 --> 00:20:32.958
-Admit it.
You're trying to cut me out.

400
00:20:32.958 --> 00:20:34.667
-Out of what exactly?

401
00:20:34.708 --> 00:20:37.167
Mary... she misses
living with me,

402
00:20:37.208 --> 00:20:38.875
I was just trying to show her
some love.

403
00:20:38.958 --> 00:20:40.250
-Yeah, what about me?

404
00:20:41.917 --> 00:20:43.375
I mean, don't I deserve love?

405
00:20:45.250 --> 00:20:48.583
-I wish you knew how much
I had for you.

406
00:20:48.583 --> 00:20:50.375
Mary'll love you too
if you let her.

407
00:20:53.375 --> 00:20:56.000
-Maybe we start thinking
about giving Mary a brother...

408
00:20:56.083 --> 00:20:57.875
or sister.

409
00:20:57.958 --> 00:20:59.542
-Yeah, one day. Sure.

410
00:20:59.625 --> 00:21:01.667
-Come on, there's no time
like the present.

411
00:21:01.667 --> 00:21:02.625
-I'm cooking.

412
00:21:02.708 --> 00:21:03.792
-Mmm.

413
00:21:03.875 --> 00:21:06.250
Come on baby,
we'll prove our love.

414
00:21:06.333 --> 00:21:08.292
To Mary, your mama.

415
00:21:08.292 --> 00:21:09.292
-Willard...

416
00:21:09.833 --> 00:21:11.167
-The whole damn world.

417
00:21:11.708 --> 00:21:15.167
-Please Willard, not like this.
No, not this way.

418
00:21:15.208 --> 00:21:16.542
Please don't do this.

419
00:21:16.625 --> 00:21:18.125
-Come on baby, prove our love.
You and me.

420
00:21:18.208 --> 00:21:19.250
-Stop. Please stop.

421
00:21:21.542 --> 00:21:22.542
-What you described,

422
00:21:22.875 --> 00:21:26.042
is that how you became pregnant
with Mary's brother?

423
00:21:26.042 --> 00:21:28.667
-Mary's half brother, Sammy.

424
00:21:28.750 --> 00:21:34.833
His conception was...
no act of love but, still...

425
00:21:38.417 --> 00:21:42.958
Love was all I had for my
new baby boy once he got here.

426
00:21:42.958 --> 00:21:44.292
[baby fussing]

427
00:21:44.375 --> 00:21:45.333
I'm not sure how, Sammy,

428
00:21:45.667 --> 00:21:47.000
but I'm gonna give you
and your sister, Mary,

429
00:21:47.083 --> 00:21:48.417
the best life
that I can manage.

430
00:21:51.000 --> 00:21:51.958
-Mama?

431
00:21:55.125 --> 00:21:56.208
Baby brother?

432
00:21:56.333 --> 00:21:59.208
-Mm-hmm. Sure is, Mary.
This is Sammy.

433
00:21:59.292 --> 00:22:03.458
-Hi Sammy. I love him.

434
00:22:03.458 --> 00:22:05.500
-And he loves you.

435
00:22:05.542 --> 00:22:07.542
-You'll never get away
from Willard now.

436
00:22:07.625 --> 00:22:10.333
Not after having his boy.

437
00:22:10.417 --> 00:22:12.250
-Pastor McCall says
there's always a way.

438
00:22:12.250 --> 00:22:15.000
-Church don't offer the kind
of sanctuary you think it does.

439
00:22:16.417 --> 00:22:19.167
-Sunday school is fun.

440
00:22:19.250 --> 00:22:20.500
-I know it is, Mary.

441
00:22:20.833 --> 00:22:22.958
We're gonna be spending lots
more time there at church too,

442
00:22:22.958 --> 00:22:24.583
you wait and see. Okay?

443
00:22:26.583 --> 00:22:27.333
Yeah.

444
00:22:28.292 --> 00:22:30.792
-From me for you.

445
00:22:30.875 --> 00:22:32.458
-Aww.

446
00:22:32.458 --> 00:22:36.167
-Paid with my,
um... allowance.

447
00:22:36.167 --> 00:22:37.750
-Ain't you the sweetest.

448
00:22:38.833 --> 00:22:39.833
-[Willard] Who, me?

449
00:22:42.750 --> 00:22:44.083
-Did you get those
outta the trash?

450
00:22:46.042 --> 00:22:47.167
Come on, Mary.

451
00:22:47.542 --> 00:22:48.708
Let's leave your mama to
the family she chose over you.

452
00:22:48.792 --> 00:22:49.583
-Mama!

453
00:22:49.583 --> 00:22:50.500
-Well, am I wrong?

454
00:22:50.708 --> 00:22:51.458
-You can't say something
like that...

455
00:22:51.875 --> 00:22:52.375
-She knows what's going on.
I raised her...

456
00:22:53.000 --> 00:22:53.500
-But if you keep talking
negative like that

457
00:22:54.208 --> 00:22:55.917
it's gonna start
rubbing off on her.

458
00:22:55.917 --> 00:22:57.667
-I'm sorry but she's
a smart girl,

459
00:22:57.667 --> 00:22:58.708
she knows what's going on.

460
00:22:58.958 --> 00:23:00.208
-I didn't think you'd say
something like that...

461
00:23:00.333 --> 00:23:01.292
-Excuse me.

462
00:23:01.375 --> 00:23:03.250
-...what, am I lying?

463
00:23:03.250 --> 00:23:04.125
-Of course you're not.

464
00:23:04.208 --> 00:23:05.125
-Willard!

465
00:23:06.792 --> 00:23:08.458
-Mary and I was just playing.

466
00:23:10.125 --> 00:23:11.375
Ain't that right?

467
00:23:20.708 --> 00:23:22.042
My handsome little man.

468
00:23:25.333 --> 00:23:26.667
You done good.

469
00:23:28.500 --> 00:23:31.667
[bell tolling]

470
00:23:46.167 --> 00:23:48.917
-Don't you worry none, Sammy.

471
00:23:48.917 --> 00:23:51.875
I'm sure your daddy
just got held up at work...

472
00:23:51.875 --> 00:23:53.708
or something important
like that.

473
00:23:54.958 --> 00:23:56.417
Yeah. It's okay.

474
00:24:06.042 --> 00:24:07.708
I told you to be here by 3:30,
Willard.

475
00:24:07.708 --> 00:24:08.708
So what's got you...

476
00:24:11.375 --> 00:24:12.708
Susan.

477
00:24:14.458 --> 00:24:16.708
You're the last person
I'd expect to pick me up.

478
00:24:17.625 --> 00:24:19.542
-Willard didn't leave me
much of a choice.

479
00:24:25.208 --> 00:24:26.625
-I told you I could drive.

480
00:24:28.875 --> 00:24:30.083
-I knew you was carrying on
behind my back

Oh...

-Don't get up.

Unless you want another reason
to stay down.

it was me

that crashed your Jeep?

648

00:31:42.708 --> 00:31:44.708
it was another man driving
when it got all banged up.

-But you and me is a team,
Willard.

-This ain't your concern, Mary.

Get your grandma and get out.
It's between me and your mama.

on yourself

and now the rest of us
are suffering because of it.

Because of you.

-I can't risk Willard taking
Sammy and never let me keep him.

665
00:32:29.417 --> 00:32:30.958
He said he'd kill me first.

Ain't nothing or no one
can save me now.

I don't want you hearing
any of this.

-Well don't look at me, Mary.

I never wanted him to die.

your daughter's testimony

is full of lies and half-truths.

You prepared to reveal
what really happened?

693
00:35:02.042 --> 00:35:04.167
Or do you let your 12-year-old
granddaughter take the blame

694
00:35:04.208 --> 00:35:06.417
and be convicted of killing

of what transpired

Is your version of what happened
the same as your daughter's?

-My daughter told her... truth.

708
00:35:56.458 --> 00:35:58.167
Now I'll tell mine.

709

-Okay. Mama, you can feed Mary
for a little bit.

710

I'm late meeting Willard.

-Look, you know I'll do anything
for you and Mary, sweetheart.

But is hanging out with Willard
Simms really a good idea?

don't you?

got my whole life ahead of me.

at church.

raising Mary.

Putting the two of them together

was like mixing gasoline
with fire.

That walk to church
ain't so bad, right?

is fun.

Come on.

to the kitchen

786
00:39:05.542 --> 00:39:06.833
and get a cookie out
of the cookie jar?

-But...
-We'll be along in a minute.

Can I help you find something?

00:39:11.333 --> 00:39:12.333
-Have you got anything stronger
than this?

790
00:39:12.750 --> 00:39:15.250
Something that seems natural
but taking in a giant dose

791
00:39:15.333 --> 00:39:17.292
would be powerful enough
to kill someone?

792
00:39:17.375 --> 00:39:19.833
-Kill someone?
Or kill Willard?

793
00:39:21.250 --> 00:39:22.125
You know you can leave him

794
00:39:22.417 --> 00:39:24.125
and move back in here
with me and Mary.

795

-I can't exactly jump ship now
that I'm pregnant with his son.

796
00:39:27.917 --> 00:39:28.875
-What?

797
00:39:29.292 --> 00:39:31.167
-The more kids I have the more
money I get from the state.

798
00:39:32.208 --> 00:39:34.958
But Willard's never gonna
let me leave with his baby.

799
00:39:34.958 --> 00:39:36.708
Not that I'm sure this kid

-You don't know me.
You never did.

806
00:39:47.500 --> 00:39:49.417
I'm my own person and I'm gonna
do whatever it takes

807
00:39:49.417 --> 00:39:51.042
to live the kinda life
that I deserve.

-I'm high.

Not that I'd expect you to know
the difference.

811

You got any poison or not?

could move back in with you.

it'd be with Willard.

Do you really think he's
a good influence on Mary?

can discuss other options.

when I call you that, does it?

And the rest of your family.

-Gee, I don't know.

If it walks, looks and quacks

-I think your mama don't know

Don't think I won't take Sammy

He said I'm gonna die
this weekend.

your little girl to do?

You'd do anything for me,
wouldn't you?

You gotta shoot Willard
in the head.

asked him to kill the victim
three years ago.

pulled the trigger.

is hearsay at best.

anything bad to happen to her.

against anyone, Mary.

and never having lunch money.

1115
00:57:15.208 --> 00:57:19.667
-Oh, Mary.
My heart breaks for you.

1116
00:57:19.750 --> 00:57:21.042
But you know I don't like
the idea

1117
00:57:21.125 --> 00:57:22.875
of you missing your lessons.

1118
00:57:22.958 --> 00:57:25.792
-You're not gonna tell Mama,
are you?

1119
00:57:25.875 --> 00:57:27.125
Or Willard?

1120
00:57:29.625 --> 00:57:30.875
-Get your shoes on.

1121
00:57:37.542 --> 00:57:40.875
-Are you taking me to
the principal's office?

1122
00:57:40.875 --> 00:57:42.083
-You'll see.

1123
00:57:44.125 --> 00:57:46.458
Some of you know my
granddaughter Mary,

1124
00:57:46.542 --> 00:57:51.000
who sometimes decides
her place isn't in school.

1125
00:57:51.083 --> 00:57:52.792
Thought we might be able
to help her feel

1126
00:57:52.875 --> 00:57:53.708
more accepting of herself

1127
00:57:54.083 --> 00:57:55.333
so that all the teasing
she gets in class

1128
00:57:55.375 --> 00:57:56.833
don't bother her so much.

1129
00:57:57.458 --> 00:57:58.750
-Welcome, Mary.

1130
00:58:02.375 --> 00:58:05.208
We were just telling some jokes.

1131
00:58:05.333 --> 00:58:06.583
-In church?

1132
00:58:06.667 --> 00:58:07.500
-I like to keep things light

1133
00:58:07.833 --> 00:58:09.250
between my Sunday
and Wednesday sermons.

call Noah's boat?

1137

[group laughing]

1139
00:58:21.708 --> 00:58:23.167
It's okay to laugh, Mary.

1140
00:58:23.292 --> 00:58:24.542
-Try telling a funny joke.

1141

[all laughing]

1142
00:58:27.667 --> 00:58:29.875
Guess I'll try harder next week,
won't I?

1143
00:58:29.958 --> 00:58:31.625
[laughs]

1144
00:58:31.750 --> 00:58:34.542
-All of a sudden I wasn't
thinking about hiding so much.

1145
00:58:34.625 --> 00:58:36.750
I finally felt like I had
a place I fit in,

1146
00:58:37.500 --> 00:58:38.958
a place I belonged.

1147
00:58:40.708 --> 00:58:42.208
If only I didn't have to go home
to Willard

1148
00:58:42.292 --> 00:58:43.375
in between being at church.

what to do?

1150
00:58:44.958 --> 00:58:45.833
-[Veronica] Would you
let me explain?

1151
00:58:46.042 --> 00:58:47.292
-[Willard] No, you're done
explaining.

-[Veronica] Please listen to me.

-[Willard] No, I'm not listening
to anything

you say anymore Veronica.

1156
00:58:53.417 --> 00:58:57.500
I am sick and tired of this.
Come here!

1157
00:58:57.625 --> 00:58:59.583
Now you need to respect me,
Veronica.

1158
00:58:59.583 --> 00:59:00.542
-[Veronica] I'm sorry, okay?

-Nothing.

We was just...

1171
00:59:24.667 --> 00:59:25.917
-Wasn't talking to you, Mary.

1172
00:59:28.375 --> 00:59:30.000
I was talking to someone
who matters.

1173
00:59:34.500 --> 00:59:36.167
Did she tempt you in here?

1174
00:59:36.167 --> 00:59:36.833
-What?

1175
00:59:36.833 --> 00:59:38.000
-I had a nightmare.

Hit me.

-You have nothing to worry
about, Sammy.

1186
01:00:26.625 --> 01:00:27.917
Accidents happen.

1187

Here. You can wear these.

1188

to get better

at church too.

here ´cause you wanna be?

-More spankings?

We can't always know
where the path we're on

1203
01:01:24.333 --> 01:01:25.875
will lead us, Mary.

1204

Some call our challenges
a test from God,

1205

like he's getting us ready
for something.

-Won't know ´till it happens.

1208

When it does,
you gotta be ready.

you love.

what I need to do,

I'm gonna be ready.

01:04:36.292 --> 01:04:37.375
not even other grown-ups,

1273
01:04:37.375 --> 01:04:39.375
stopped him from being
how he was.

1274
01:04:40.875 --> 01:04:44.000
Everyone was right terrified
of Willard Simms.

1275
01:04:44.125 --> 01:04:46.458
He was a bad man.

1276
01:04:49.208 --> 01:04:51.292
-Is that why you decided to do
what you did to him?

1277
01:04:55.333 --> 01:04:57.167
-Do you understand
the question, Mary?

1278
01:05:03.042 --> 01:05:05.000
-I never decided to do
what I did.

1279
01:05:06.250 --> 01:05:09.917
I was asked...
well, told what to do.

1280
01:05:18.500 --> 01:05:19.292
Look Mama.

1281
01:05:20.208 --> 01:05:21.458
-Leave me be, Mary.

1282
01:05:23.708 --> 01:05:26.208
What if you said that
you crashed the Jeep?

1283
01:05:26.292 --> 01:05:28.292
-Willard knows I don't drive.

1284
01:05:28.375 --> 01:05:30.750
Besides, you don't think he'd
hurt me for messing up his car?

1285
01:05:30.833 --> 01:05:33.375
-I can't really blame the guy
who crashed it for leaving town.

1286
01:05:35.958 --> 01:05:38.583
I wish he took me with him.

1287
01:05:38.708 --> 01:05:40.542
-And what about
Mary and Sammy?

1288
01:05:40.542 --> 01:05:42.208
-I'm not able to collect welfare
without ´em,

1289
01:05:42.292 --> 01:05:44.292
that's the very reason I can
never leave Willard.

1290
01:05:44.375 --> 01:05:47.042
I lose the checks
if I lose the kids.

1291
01:05:47.042 --> 01:05:48.958
Except you Mary, Willard
don't even want you.

-Now Willard, you got

-Now, enough with the lies.

1303
01:06:34.583 --> 01:06:36.583
Now, people all over town are
saying there's another man

1304
01:06:36.583 --> 01:06:39.833
who crashed my Jeep.
Exactly like I thought.

As if you were faithful
when I was on my trucking runs.

There's my number one son.

Was your mama kissing
one of her friends?

1312

Or maybe another man
when I was away on the road?

-No.

For me to calm down.
