Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury,

I am not arguing one side of
a "she said/she said" matter.

I'm here to expose the truth.

Ms. Turner is suing Ms.
Wallis for defamation,

meaning Ms. Turner
claims that my client

knowingly spread false
information about her.

While we all have
deep sympathy for Ms. Wallis..

How are you holding up?

You're brave, Kate!

That doesn't
change the fact

that she's broken the law.

It's okay.

The burden of proof

rests on one person.

- Jeanette!
- Jeanette! Over here!

- Do you regret suing Kate?
- How do you live with yourself, Jeanette?

Nick: And that person

- 11 million? Seriously?
- Is the plaintiff, - Ms. Turner.

- Jeanette, we need some answers here.
- Jeanette! Jeanette!

Ms. Wallis's lie

transformed Ms. Turner

into America's punching bag.

This case isn't about the crimes

of a disturbed kidnapper.

My client has already
endured enough trauma.

And it has nothing to do

with what took place
in the outside world

while Ms. Wallis
was held captive.

While Ms. Turner enjoyed
the trappings of my client's life.

This case is about
Ms. Wallis's actions

on The Marsha Bailey Show,

which have hurt my client's

lifetime earning potential

to the tune of $11 million.

The plaintiff's attorneys
will attempt to attack

my client's integrity.

But the evidence will show

nothing.

The evidence will
show that Ms. Wallis,

on national television,

knowingly chose to defame her.

Nick: There is no evidence

that my client spread
false information,

knowingly or otherwise.

Denise: I don't envy you.

Nick: But I do trust you.

Not to choose sides
but to choose the truth,

which is about to be revealed.

Tomorrow we'll begin

with the plaintiff's
case in chief.

- Court is adjourned.

I'm so happy you
decided to do this.

Your look radiates integrity

and elegance.

You picked it out.

Ms.Wallis, we're ready for you.

Since you declined earrings
and took a hatchet to your hair

right before going
on national TV...

Yes.

She's ready.

You're gonna do great, honey.

I was found by someone.

Excuse me?

A girl.

I didn't know her very well,
or at all, really, but

to the girl who stayed silent,

who let me endure things
that I cannot erase...

Jeanette Turner...

I hope you rot in hell.

She can't do that. She
can't name you like that.

Legally, she can't do that.

You weren't supposed to
mention Jeanette by name.

Or at all!

Honey, you broke the law!

My turn, I guess.

- Kate, over here!
- Kate, Kate!

Come on, Molly, you
know better than that.

Oh, come on.

Jeanette, Jeanette!

Would you agree that 11
million is a greedy number?

We're not answering
any questions right now.

Do you regret any of
your actions at all?

We're not answering
questions right now.

Back off, please.

We're done here, guys.

How was court today?

Today was easy.

Tomorrow my lawyer's bringing
Kate on the stand as a hostile witness.

And that's good for you.

Right?

Still won't make people like me.

Hey.

I like you.

Doodlebug? What are
you still doing up?

Not eating ice cream
straight from the carton,

if that's what you're thinking.

Well, I'm not thinking... I'm
thinking you should get me a spoon.

Angela says you're nervous.

You know you can still
talk to me, right?

Yeah, Dad.

I do.

Good.

Denise: Ms. Wallis,
you've stated repeatedly

that Martin Harris captured
you by force, correct?

Yes.

And what is it that
you maintain happened?

Martin Harris offered
me a ride home.

I got in the car,

drank the drugged
soda he gave me,

passed out, and woke
up in his basement.

And that's what you relayed
to the police, correct?

It is.

And that's what you
maintain here today,

under sworn oath.

Yes.

Your Honor, I have
a one-page document

marked "Exhibit 4."

May I approach the witness?

Objection, Your Honor, this
was not disclosed in discovery.

It's for impeachment
purposes, Your Honor.

Overruled. You may continue.

Ms. Wallis, what is it
that you're holding?

A printed chat log
between two screen names.

Could you please state
those screen names?

Berenice4 and Traumarama79.

Ms. Wallis, could you please
read the highlighted passage?

Ms. Wallis?

"Traumarama79."

"I went to Martin's
looking for safety."

"What would people think if they
knew I went there willingly?"

"It'd make them question
my whole story."

Do you recall this
conversation, Ms. Wallis?

Or should I call
you Traumarama79?

That is your screen
name, correct?

I don't understand.
Those chats were private.

Did they tap our phones?
Can they do that?

I did some digging.

It appears that your
sister has been chatting

under the screen
name "Berenice4."

Your parents are
calling her now.

Berenice is Ashley?

Kate.

You haven't been honest with me.

And that's a problem.

This is a huge blow to our case.

If there is anything else
you're not telling me...

I need to know.

What the hell are
you doing here?

There's no apologizing
for what I did.

I shouldn't have been drinking.

I shouldn't have given
you a ride, but I did.

There's no excuse.

I take full responsibility
for what happened.

Well, that's great,
Jamie. You can go now.

But Vince Fuller didn't
do anything wrong.

Holy shit.

Ashley is Berenice?

Are you sure?

I'm bugging out, Mal.

Did she say why?

Yeah, and she had
this weak-ass excuse

of, "I needed
someone to talk to."

That sounds... nice.

I thought I had found
someone like me.

Who had been through hell
and back and survived it.

I thought that I was
chatting with my future,

and she doesn't even exist.

I don't have the whole puzzle.

I was wrong about Berenice
and I don't remember Anabelle.

What if I don't
have all the pieces?

I think I'm ready

to try what Sylvia suggested.

Are you sure?

We're actually not open
yet if you wanna...

I'm so sorry.

Why are you saying this now?

Jamie got me thinking.

About how... I've been
punishing the wrong person.

And I miss you.

It's been so long.

I can't even enjoy hearing that.

What did I do that was so wrong?

Be there for my boyfriend
when he got hurt?

I was vulnerable.

I mean, everyone
was staring and,

and that's when you
tried to out us.

I wasn't thinking about
anyone else in that moment

except for you and me.

I was terrified, Vince.

You think I'm not scared?

I'm black. And gay.

In Texas.

We were in this together, Ben.

You just tossed me anywhere.

You're right.

You don't have to
answer me right now.

But I want to earn
your trust back.

If you'll let me.

You really wanted
to meet me here?

Of all places?

This is where the truth lies.

And that's what we both
want, right, Jeanette?

I've wanted to face the truth
with you since last summer.

- Why now?
- Taking $11 million from my family won't hurt me.

But it will completely
bankrupt my parents.

So now that you
think I might win,

you're interested in settling
this outside of court?

You've done some
dirty shit, Jeanette,

but springing those chat logs
on me in court was a low blow.

Naming me on TV was a low blow.

You stole what was
basically my trauma journal

and shared it in a courtroom.

Can you not see
how cruel that is?

Can you not see that
you ruined my life?

- You stole mine!
- You didn't even want it!

I have read pages and pages

of your chat with Berenice.

And I don't know
the whole story.

But I know that you're
lucky that there are

some serious secrets
buried with Martin Harris.

I'm Molly Green, standing on
the steps of Skylin Courthouse,

where Jeanette Turner
and Kate Wallis

have both yet to
appear on day three

of Turner v. Wallis.

More on this story
as it unfolds.

Since you're accusing me
of stealing your life,

what about Jamie?

You were over him
before you went missing.

But when you came back, you reclaimed
him anyway, even though I loved him.

Yeah, you went to great sick
lengths to leave me in hell

in order to keep him.

- I didn't.
- Let's get to it, then. What?

I don't have anything to hide.

I know you broke
into this house.

Yeah. To play hide-and-seek.

That's no secret. I told
the cops that last year.

No, not that time.

I know you did it again
on Christmas Eve in '93.

Okay.

But I didn't go into
the basement that day.

So if you know that, then I guess you
weren't in the basement, either, huh?

You're right, I wasn't.

Oh. So we're really
being honest.

I am. I know you saw me.

And I know I didn't.

All aboard!

The night you broke
in, I was home alone.

You think I'd let a funny
little redhead like you run around loose here?

Ah, Julia, I've got to have you!

And I was messing with...
The snow globe.

How could you know that?

You were making
a phone call, right?

Jamie got this weird message
on his answering machine.

We thought it might be you, but,
I mean, it didn't make any sense.

How could you have been making a
phone call while you were kidnapped?

You've reached
Jamie's private line.

You know what to do.

The message was nonsense.
It was breathing.

I knew you called from upstairs.

Till death do us part.

The night you saw me, I
hid on the second floor.

Hello?

Hello?

I was sure no one was home.

I saw Martin Harris at the mall.

And then I heard a noise.

I took the snow
globe and I left.

I found your necklace.

If the necklace proved anything,
I'd be arrested by now.

Don't I know it.

I looked out this window
and I saw your bike.

But you didn't see
my face, did you?

I heard your voice,
I found your necklace.

And I saw your bike.

You lied.

About holding eye
contact, I guess?

Your face was shadowed outside,

but you were facing
me and I saw your bike

with the stupid
card on the wheel.

Oh, my God.

Hey, that's my bike!

Who cares? Go, go, go!

The bike
with the boombox?

Come on, we have to go!

And the card?

That's not my bike.

It's Mallory's.

What?

Mallory's the one who saw you.

It was Mallory?

How is that even possible?

Oh, shit.
You are so getting busted.

Mallory told me
later she finally broke in.

She was hoping to
see me get caught.

She must have
waited until I left.

And then she decided
to follow me.

That must be when you saw Mallory
and you thought it was me.

What did you steal this time?

- What?
- You lectured me about the list,

about the contraband.

You played holier-than-thou

right up until cutting
me off as a friend,

when you've been sneaking into
that house this entire time?

- I, um...
- You get some sort of sick pleasure

out of it, don't you?

I can't believe you
haven't gotten caught yet.

You're a hypocrite and
honestly a real weirdo.

I'm not a weirdo.

Look, if you care so
much, just take it.

We're not even friends anymore,
why do you care what I do?

So just take the stupid
thing and get out.

Go!

I gave
Mallory the snow globe.

She wouldn't give it back.

Probably to protect you.

If you search her room,
I'm sure you'll find it.

You're not lying.

It was really
Mallory that saw me.

I didn't see you.

If I didn't think I was right,

I would have never accused you.

Jeanette, I am so sorry.

Can I ask

what happened between
you two in this house?

We were friends.

Martin and I.

He was

kind and fascinating.

I don't really know how
else to describe it.

- He seemed...
- Like someone who had secrets?

Yeah.

I slept over that first night.

That night led to more nights.

And friends led to
more than friends.

You two were...

Things escalated to
a really dark place.

There's just one thing
that I can't remember.

And my therapist says that

if I go back down there,

that maybe it will
help unlock the memory.

Down to the basement?

Will you come with me?

Yes.

Are you okay?

The night before I was rescued,

he came down here.

Something was different.

Something was wrong.

He was vulnerable
but weirdly seemed at peace.

Seemed like he had

made a decision.

Thought he had worked up the
courage to actually kill me.

You asked me once how this ends.

I've tried to find another way,
but there isn't one.

Martin

we can find one.

No.

The police came here today.

They did?

It's only a matter of time

before they're back
with a search warrant.

This is Anabelle.

She's a family heirloom.

Why did you bring her down here?

She took my father's life.

Are you gonna take mine?

I'm sorry for the
things I've done.

For what I'm about to do.

Martin, please, no.

It's the only way.

Go live your life.

See the world like we wanted.

And know that you
were truly loved.

Goodbye, Kate.

Kate?

Kate?

Listen to me, okay?

I was wrong.

We'll find a way.

Just give me the gun, okay?

You don't wanna do this.

You love me.

I sat with him all night.

I felt paralyzed.

And guilty for loving him.

And for hating him.

And killing him.

In the morning, I
called the cops.

The news said he
died in a shootout.

They assumed that, I guess,

because he died of
a gunshot wound.

What was that?

What was that?

I think I might have
internalized that, too,

after a while.

My therapist says
that can happen.

I'm the bad guy.

No.

No.

Come on, no one could
blame you for killing him.

Jeanette, you should sue me.

You didn't deserve any of this.

You should go, take the money.

It was never about the money.

Then what was it about?

All I ever wanted

was to just

maybe feel what it was like

to be like you.

Not to actually be you, just...

I never felt like I was

popular or

beautiful,

or enough.

I just wanted to know
what that felt like.

To just once

have the sun shining on me.

Yes, I was kidnapped.

That's the truth.

After speaking to
her in depth myself,

there is another truth
that I am 100% certain of.

Jeanette Turner did not see
me in Martin Harris's house.

She is not the monster the
media has made her out to be.

Jeanette Turner is a victim.

Kate, does that make you a liar?

How do you feel dragging an innocent
girl's name through the mud?

What
prompted this, Kate?

Going somewhere?

Mal, I know you saw me.

You befriended me.

And didn't say a
word to me about it.

Yes.

How are both of
those things true?

I deserve an explanation.

I don't know.

Come on, Mal, it's me.

I saw a woman living freely

not in the basement.

I figured it was Martin
Harris's girlfriend

or... sister or

something.

You were half-right.

It-it didn't make sense
for a missing girl

to be in the living
room making a call.

That's when you saw me.

I never in a million years
imagined that it was you.

Why would you?

I didn't really think much of it

until I heard about
your rescue on the news.

And her abductor has been
killed in a deadly shootout.

Our news team was
there on the scene.

And in a shocking and
disturbing turn of events,

Kate Wallis's alleged
kidnappr was Martin Harris,

who was the assistant principl
at Skylin High School in Texa.

And the world only thought
you were ever in the basement.

Telling my secret meant
telling yours, too.

So I chalked it up to being
none of my business. And

then we became friends.

And I...

Boo, you're no fun!

I...

What happened to
"no more secrets"?

I'm gonna hop a Greyhound
and get out of town.

You will never see me again.

And leave me?

Here?

Without you?

Don't you dare.

Quiet on set.

Okay, go!

Hold. Okay.

I'm sitting here
with Jeanette Turner,

the young woman at the
center of a misunderstanding

that cost a year of her
life and her sanity.

She is, in this moment,

the most wronged
woman in America.

Jeanette

given your resilience,
your grace,

your strength

you are an inspiration.

And for the part I played
in what happened to you,

I am deeply sorry.

Thank you, Marsha.

I'm incredibly grateful
to be here today.

I've watched and... I know you're
all kumbaya and forgiveness now,but

what I'm watching is
an absolute creep show.

Maybe.

But that creep also
happens to be innocent.

Let's go for a drive.

If there's one thing
I've learned from all this...

Where are we going?
- I have to ask...

You dropped the
lawsuit against Kate,

walking away from a potential
$11 million settlement.

What made you do that?

It was never about
the money, Marsha.

Only the truth.

And now that the
truth has come out,

what does life look
like on the other side?

Well, I have the greatest
dad who never left my side,

and... the best boyfriend
I could hope for.

Is there anything else you'd
like to share before you wrap up?

There is something
I want to say.

To the girl who named me.

Who could have cleared all
this up sooner but didn't.

Kate Wallis...

I forgive you.

Aw shit!

I love this song!

You are getting out and
dancing with me this time.

Okay, fine.

Yea-eah-eah!

Come on!

Hello?

Hello?

Martin?

Is someone there?

If anyone can hear
me, it's Kate Wallis!

Can you hear me?

Martin's locked me down
here. Please help me!

Please help me out!

Is anybody there?
