Leslie: Six years ago,
the Leyland school was blessed

with the arrival
of Dan Sullivan.

Four winning seasons,
a state championship.

Hanson: Ms. Blaine, we're
suspending Taylor from school.

There were pictures posted
of your son

which were
outside the code.

There was a party.
It was for the basketball team.

He was really
messed up.

We need
to talk with Becca.

I do not want her
at those parties.

Bitch looking good, huh?

D-damn.

Terri: $20,000 a year
on that school.

You'd think
he'd make better choices.

You know
that girl is just --

oh, I know you're not
getting down on the sister.

Anne:
What were you doing?!

I don't know!
I don't know what happened!

I had a couple
of beers.

Then everything
got messed up.

I think
someone did something to me.

A student is claiming
to have been assaulted.

By one of my players?

Well, you know
that's a lie.

Don't think your kids
are above mistakes.

You need
to talk to your players.

What are you doing about
what happened to him?

We've taken disciplinary action

appropriate to the circumstance --
what are you doing to those boys?!

Tell me what you're doing to the boys!
The suspension is fair.

As bad as it may seem,
it can get worse.

Man: 911.
What's your emergency?

I want to report a rape.

Roberts: Ms. Blaine?

Yes.

Did you call 911?

When did the assault
take place?

Last Saturday.

You know the location?

Uh, it was a party.
I'm not sure where.

Exact location's gonna be
important to detectives, okay?

Victim's name?

Taylor.

Where's she now?

Taylor's my son.

The victim's a male?

Yes. My son.

And this
is a sexual assault?

Yes.

Does your son
know the assailant?

It was some other kids
at the school.

One kid?
More than one?

He doesn't remember.

Doesn't remember,
or is not saying?

He was drugged.
He doesn't remember.

Gonna need to take your son
to the hospital,

get a rape kit done.

Sanders:
Is your son here?

Yes.

Maybe he should come out
and talk to us.

He doesn't want to.

If he's the victim,
we need to speak to him.

He doesn't want to talk
about it.

Look, if he's not going to
help us, we can't help him.

[ Sighs ]

[ Indistinct shouting,
scattered applause ]

Woman: We have so many schools
that are struggling right now,

that are underfunded!

And what do you guys want to do?
Give them more breaks?

Cut their property taxes?

You all are supposed
to represent the city.

Represent all of us.

[ Indistinct shouting ]

Not them!

All right, that school

is nothing but a bunch of rich,
spoiled kids.

It's a -- it's a segregation academy.
[ Indistinct shouting ]

It's ridiculous.

And you're trying
to make it bigger?

I mean, they're trying to make
this school bigger?

[ Scoffs ] The hell
that they should get to do that!

[ Cheers and applause ]

They're all -- well,
I'm not gonna say idiots...

You just said it.
[ Laughter ]

May I take the opportunity

to distance myself
from the remark?

Stand there and say
the first stupid thing

that falls
out of their mouths. God!

It is a space
for public comment.

Where was the comment?

If they want to comment,
comment.

They have nothing to say.

It's part of the process.

They're angry
because they want to be angry.

Sometimes it's better to listen
than antagonize.

Well, Leslie, you are supposed
to be the voice of the school,

and I see you just --
just sit there and take it.

[ Chuckles ] Let's focus on us,
focus on what we're doing.

We have an amazing event
coming up --

a remarkable evening that --

so we just sat
through a train wreck,

and you want to put on a dress
and have a night out?

You have some curious
priorities.

That night out is going to raise
$3 million in one evening.

That's my priority.

Before we adjourn,
I need to make the board

aware of something
that may or may not be an issue,

but it should be a concern.

There was an allegation made
against some of our students.

About what?

Nothing's been substantiated.

At this point,
for everyone's sake,

it's important
to maintain anonymity.

Hold on. I --

legal's been made aware.

Dan Sullivan's
questioned his players,

so all we can do
is be diligent.

Beyond that, we'll make sure
you're all informed.

Any other business?

That's it.

We're adjourned.

Thank you all.
It's a good day's work.

-Take care. Thank you.
-Good to see you.

-Take care.
-You too.

-I'll see you next week.
-Bye-bye.

You need me to stay?

Uh, no, I need you
to type that stuff up for me.

It's very important regarding
this allegation

that, on the record,
we say the right things.

What's the problem,
Leslie?

It was off campus.

The event wasn't sanctioned
by the school,

but there
is some liability.

It could get very ugly.

So we need to do
the right thing.

We need to say
the right thing.

You keep repeating that --
"say the right thing."

There's the fact procedure
and there's the rumor procedure.

Right now,
we're dealing with rumor.

Don't publicize the rumor.

Promote the opposite
of what the rumor says.

Provide proof to support
promotion of the opposite.

What exactly happened,
Leslie?

If this is about the basketball
team, we can't af--

Dan talked to the team.
No one's admitted anything.

We can discipline individuals
for what we do know,

but we can't be accountable
for what we don't know.

There's nothing more
to do right now.

Okay.

Okay.

[ Door opens, closes ]

Taylor: I don't want to go.
Anne: I know.

I don't want to talk
to anybody.

It's -- it's just to make sure
you're okay, okay?

I just want it to go away.

That's what they want.

They want to act
like it never happened.

It'll get better.
I promise.

But it's not
just gonna go away.

Nurse Wells:
Taylor, my name is nurse Wells.

I'm the forensic nurse that's
gonna be working with you today.

So, I want to talk with you
about how this process works.

But do you have any questions,
just off the top?

No.

Okay. All right.

If anything comes up,
please let me know, all right?

So, this is how this all goes.
We start and end with paperwork.

As like everything else
in the hospital,

we start with paperwork
and end with paperwork.

I'll talk with you
about medications, too.

We've got antibiotics
for preventing

sexually transmitted
infections.

And if that's something
that you want to have,

we'll get that for you
while you're here.

Okay?

If it's all right with you,
I'll draw some blood, too.

And we do that for a couple
of different reasons.

One of them
is for a toxicology screen.

Like, if somebody
might have given you

something to knock you out,
it could test for that.

We also run a DNA test

so that when everything
goes to the lab,

they can figure out
what things belong to you

and what things
don't belong to you.

Those are the two reasons
why we do that.

Most of the rest of the exam
is talking.

You know, I will ask you
to tell me what you remember

about what was going on.

I'm gonna write it down.

It kind of helps me
figure out

what I need to be doing
with the rest of the exam.

Why do you --
why do you need to do that?

Why -- for what you do?
Why do you -- um...

Sorry. Just, what -- why do you
need that information?

There's a couple
of different reasons.

One of them is because
it really helps guide the exam.

If I know
what you experienced,

I know what things
I need to look for

and where I need to look
for them.

The other reason
why we like to get a history

is because it can go
into court.

If this ends up
going to court,

then I can read your words
to the jury,

and I think that can be
a pretty powerful thing.

The last thing we'll do,
if it's okay with you,

is take a look
at your anal-genital area

for same reasons --
looking for any kind of injury

in that area and also
probably taking some swabs

in case there might be
any DNA to be found there, too.

And that's kind of
the long and short of it.

Any questions so far?

No.

Next, I'd like to take a look
at your anal area.

So, again, I'm gonna touch
on right hip,

and come in
towards the middle,

and just kind of
straighten out

wrinkles in your skin
right here.

And doing --
looking at the lower area.

And then looking up
at the top area.

[ Voice fading ] Okay, so,
hand back on right hip...

[ Breathing heavily ]

...and moving in
towards center,

and fingers
right in the middle,

and you'll feel a swab
right between my fingers.

[ Laughter ]

Drink this.

[ Door opens ]

[ Door closes ]

Nurse Wells: Hey, Anne,
why don't you come with me?

Okay.

Thank you.

It's important for you guys to
follow up with h.I.V. Testing.

H.I.V.?

Yeah.

I didn't even...

I didn't even think
that could...

Yeah, and of course not.
Why would you think about that?

But in these kinds of
situations, it's recommended.

So, if you have a doctor

that you all normally see
for things, that's great.

If not, I want to make sure
that you get connected

with the city clinic
for those tests.

-Okay?
-Okay.

All right.

I wanted to ask
about the clothes

that he was wearing that night
and if he still has them.

Okay.

I-I think so.

Okay.

If y'all haven't
washed them yet,

put them in a paper bag
and just tape it closed.

[ Sighs ] We did do wash.
We did.

But I don't think
they were in there.

No.

Okay. Put them in a paper bag,
tape it closed,

and then give those
to the detective.

Oh.

Can I just bring
them to you?

No. Evidence needs to go
to the police.

I've already been
to the police.

Did you talk to a responding
officer or a detective?

I don't even know.

So, a responding officer's
usually the person

who comes out and just takes
a statement. [ Sighs ]

Normally you'll follow up
with a detective later.

How many people
do I have to talk to?

It's a lot.

[ Turn signal clicking ]

[ Tires screech ]
[ Gasps ]

Man: What, you didn't see me?
You didn't see me, huh?

Your dumb ass
didn't see me?

You need to learn to drive, bitch.
[ Camera shutter clicking ]

Hey, you listening to me?!

Learn to drive!

[ Dial tone ]

[ Dialing ]

[ Ringing ]

Ken: Indianapolis police.
Detective Williams.

Ken?
It's Terri.

Terri, what's up?
How's Michael?

Good. He's good.

Uh, listen, Ken, I got into
an incident on my way in today.

You okay?

I'm fine.

It's just, the other driver,
he was...Aggressive.

White guy? Black guy?

White, of course.
Just really aggressive.

And I got a photo
of his license plate,

and I was wondering
if you could do anything?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Send it through.

If anything pops up, I'll, uh --
you know, we'll get into it.

Yeah?
You'll take care of it?

Hey, you know what, Terri?
For you...

I'll talk to you later,
okay?

Thanks, Ken.

Don't call it a comeback.

All right,

Yeah, "try."

I can't dunk.

Try.

"Just try." You're always
telling me to just try...

Don't talk like that.

You talk like that
at school?

I'll give you
an alley-oop.

"I can't dunk," but you're gonna

[ Laughs ]

All right, so,

You got to start taking care

[ Indistinct conversations ]

[ School bell rings ]

[ Knock on door ]

Hey, uh, bad time?

Just end-of-the-day
housekeeping.

It's the kind of world
we live in.

[ Chuckles ]
Hey, uh, this is for you.

You -- you said
some very nice things about me

at that fundraiser,
and, uh, well, thank you.

Oh. All deserved.

Wow.
How do you do this?

I know, I know.
You can't tell me your secrets.

[ Chuckles ]
Oh, you know, it's not magic.

It's just Patience.

So, listen, Dan,
we have to talk.

The incident that happened
with the team,

we need to close it out,
and we need to do it

in a way that,
if it comes to it,

people understand
we took it seriously.

Okay.

You need to discipline
one of your players.

For what?

For what happened
at that party.

I talked to my boys.
Nothing happened.

Something happened.
There was drinking, there --

have you seen
the pictures

the kids
have been texting around?

Suspend the kids
that are spreading that crap,

but don't take it out
on the team.

The mother of the boy
has been in this office,

and she's been using
some ugly language.

Well, her kid got wasted drunk,
you know,

so she's got to blame
somebody.

"Rape."
That's the word she used.

That's insane.

And compared to that,

we have to look thoughtful
and responsible.

People think this school
is about entitlement.

We have to promote
the opposite.

If you make those kids
look guilty,

then next thing, people are
saying they're guilty.

I know. You're concerned
about their feelings.

No, this is not
about their feelings.

If those boys want to go play
ball in college --

if they even want to go
to college --

even one game,
that stays on their record.

You're talking
about one player.

I'm talking
about the team.

And when people come
and they ask us

why we didn't do anything
about the team, we did.

But if we're the ones deciding
what we're going to do,

then we can do
what has the least impact.

You're being reactionary.

This is a little act.

One player, one game --
to prevent more hurt elsewhere.

But there will be a notation
in a file

that says the player was sat
for disciplinary reasons.

[ Sighs ]

Who am I supposed to sit?

Well, it was
the captain's party.

Kevin?
You want me to sit Kevin?

I don't think
we want to get into things

with the Lacroix family.

Who's the other captain?

Eric Tanner.

Whatever you decide,

just put it in writing
for me, please.

[ Indistinct shouting ]

Everybody know
about this?

No, not everybody.
Mnh-mnh.

But people know.

It's one game.

And what about Kevin?
He's the other team captain.

How come you're not doing
anything to him?

Now we're -- we're looking
at each player individually.

Yeah, but you're coming at me.
You're not coming at him.

So how's that fair?

One game. All right?

[ Door slams ]

Oh, hey, Eric.
What's up, bro?

Want to get in
on the game?

Eric.

Eric!

That little bitch
said something.

It's nothing.
Well, it's nothing for you.

They're not doing anything
to you.

I know he's running
his mouth.

What's he gonna say?

He's not even in school
anymore.

He could still
pop off, kev.

You're the one running
your mouth, though, man.

You need to shut the hell up
and let it be.

Like, let it go.

[ Sighs ]

I got you on this.

How you got me?

'Cause it's done.
That's it.

After this,
nobody's speaking on it.

Y--
you just need to chill, man.

Do it for the team,
all right?

And don't be a bitch
about it.

Damn.

[ School bell rings ]

[ Indistinct conversations ]

I don't know.
One of those...

[ Laughs ]

Come on, girl.

What's up?

Hey, yo, what up?

Lost?

Hey, st--
what?

Go roll up on your own.
Sean, no. Back off.

You guys, st--
Chris: Hey.

Do me better.

Hey.
We got a problem?

Mateo,
you got a problem?

Nah.
[ School bell rings ]

Then you need to figure out
where you need to be.

You have class?

Yeah.

Then get to class.
Let's go.

Everything straight
with these two?

Boys being boys?

[ Chuckles ] Yeah.

I want you to be mindful hanging
out between class, okay?

Yeah.

Get where you need to be.

Whoa.

You're already late.

Let's not get
into an accident.

Monica: What you're doing
is wrong, and it's cruel.

You're literally trying to take
food out of children's mouths.

Nobody's trying
to touch HHFK.

Okay, give kids
a free breakfast -- yes.

But it needs to happen
before first period,

not during first period.

Oh, we're talking about families
of different means.

Getting their kids to school
before class isn't practical.

Getting kids fed
is directly related

to how they perform in class.
Nobody's

arguing about providing
a meal for the kids.

A-all they're talking about
is when it happens.

Well, that's the problem.

We're not just talking
about feeding kids.

This is
a civil rights issue.

[ Sighs ]

What, is that --
is that funny to you?

A civil rights issue?

For me, for a lot of people
in this room.

I don't see the attack dogs.
I don't see the water hoses.

So what's the problem?

That the people being hurt
don't look like you?

Or that little brown kids
don't have rights?

We have a lot
to cover tonight.

Does this even have anything
to do with your school?

Not mine.

Ours.

We're supposed to be here
to problem-solve.

So why don't we do that?

Days go by,
year in and out.

And we're not
talking about

if we should be teaching
Singapore math

or if the reading levels
are appropriate.

We are talking about what time
to serve the kiddies food.

[ Scoffs ]

I have three degrees --
two of them from I.U. --

and I feel like
a fast-food manager

as much
as a superintendent.

And Monica --

oh. She's fierce.

I like her.
I really respect her.

But she's
a bleeding heart.

HHFK -- good intentions,
poorly executed.

It's that simple.

But nothing's that simple.

I want to do something
about it,

and you speaking to it,
it means something.

I'm just trying to run
my school.

Our schools.
Isn't that what you said?

Why stir things?

Too many teachers,
they just want to keep

their mouths shut,
heads down,

let the unions fight it out
with the legislator.

That solves what?

That's politics.

How's politics working
for students?

You need help
with your budget.

I don't need help.

Okay,
my school needs help,

and you're talking
about grabbing a third rail.

You're not gonna get anyone
to back you.

I need you to back me.

If I can win a few battles,
then I can fight some new ones.

Then we can all
start winning.

Doctor...

I'm seriously not trying
to get into this.

[ Door closes ]

What's up?

Terri: What's up?

Nothing.

Uh, Eric was talking about going
to Chicago this weekend --

you have something
you want to tell me?

Sit down.

Do you have something
you want to tell me?

What is that?

Uh [Clears throat]
a receipt?

For what?

Do I really need to sit here
and punk you?

I got her a gift.

Who?

Val.

You got her a $900 gift?

What, you thought I didn't check
your credit-card receipts,

or you thought
I would be okay with you

-spending this kind of money?
-Hey, she's my -- she's my girl.

How long have you been
seeing her?

I don't know.

A couple of months?
Maybe?

What was it, Kevin?

A bracelet.

What did she promise you?

What did she tell you she was
gonna do for that bracelet?

Nothing.

[ Sighs ]

We got into a fight.

Okay, so, you got her
a slick bracelet,

and because you were
so slick,

she got back with you
and it was all good?

[ Sighs ]

Are you having sexual relations
with her?

Mom, please don't say it
like that. Why --

well, how do you want me to say it?
Any other way but that one.

What, you roll up on her?
Knocking the boots?

[ Chuckles ]
Getting busy?

Nobody says
any of those things.

That's what you all do?

No, she's --
she's not like that.

Hmm, well, for $900,
she could be.

That's how it's gonna be
from now on.

Good looks, skills.
You've got money.

There are girls out there,

they're gonna be coming hard
at you for that.

They're gonna be trying to be
your baby mama

just so they can get paid.

That's how they are.

And the last time val
was anywhere near $900 --

do you think I'm stupid?

Some of these girls out here
are gonna hope that you are.

Then how am I
supposed to know?

Well, does her family
have any money?

Because if her family
has money,

then she doesn't want
anything from you.

But these other girls,
running around here, broke,

talking about,
"I want me some rocks,

show me the rocks," I...

Those are straight hos.

You can leave those
for the wts,

'cause you're better
than that.

You hear
what I'm trying to say?

Yeah.

All right, now,
you got to get it back.

Hm?

She doesn't get to keep
a $900 bracelet.

But I gave it
to her already.

What did you
buy it with?

Mom, that's nothing to you.
That's $900.

Are you serious?

You get it back, Kevin,
and you get it back today.

If not, I will go over there
myself with the police,

because as far as I'm concerned,
she stole it.

[ Sighs ]

[ Sighs ]

The Avedon Arts Building?

The Avedon Library?

[ Laughs ]

The Avedon [clears throat]
Athletic Center?

I wasn't good at sports.

The Avedon
Computer Science Center?

We know you're good
at computers.

Yeah.

Look, your school's not really
a priority for me.

I don't have kids.

These are
all our children.

I don't need
the fundraising speech.

It's not a speech.

It's rich kids going
to a rich kid's school.

I went to a public school.
I turned out okay.

This is an opportunity
for you to start building

your own legacy.

The name that goes
on the building is yours,

not your father's.

A million dollars
for naming rights,

for the right to put your name
where it matters.

You know a good deal
when you see one.

Yeah. I know a good pitch
when I hear one, too.

[ Chuckles ]

Okay.
Let me think about it.

-Okay.
-Then we'll talk.

-You bet.
-I'll take care of these.

-Okay.
-You know what?

I'm gonna go
to that gala of yours.

Put me down
for a couple of tickets.

Okay, I will.

[ Mumbled ]
Son of a bitch.

He talked to me
like I was 8 years old.

"I went to public school."

The only reason
he went to public school

is 'cause his dad
was running for office.

Nobody votes for a politician
whose kids are in private.

I love that if the kids you care
about come from means,

you're not supposed to care
about them.

I mean, even someone with money
thinks that.

I just -- ugh --

getting sick
of the whole dance.

Resign.

I'm sorry?

Resign.

That's really
your career advice?

Is being headmaster
really your career?

Capital development
is my profession.

But it's not your school,
so what do you care if --

well, I could say
it's not your company,

so what do you care,

except you have
a long-term contract.

If people at that place aren't interested
enough to put money into it --

"that place"?

This...

Is not a good topic
for me.

Never is.

I care about what I do.
What I do is important.

Okay.

Here's the good news.

The goal is in sight.

Then I can learn
to like New York

and join you at your nameless,
faceless, godless institution.

[ Chuckles ]

We gonna make it
through the next year?

We gonna make it
through the next year?

I'm not going anywhere.

[ Cash register beeping ]

[ Dan sighs ]

Yeah, great.
Fine. Good.

Well,
I think she'd like it.

Look, whatever you get your mom,
she's gonna appreciate it.

We should throw her
a surprise party.

She doesn't like surprises.

I like surprises,
so we should do it.

It is a big birthday
for your mom.

I don't know if it's the one
we should be experimenting on.

Hey, um...

So, your mom, she wanted me
to have a talk with you.

And, you know,
just, uh --

you know,
just be mindful of guys.

[ Laughs ]

Hey. Hey, come on.

You know,
guys are gonna be coming at you,

and, you know,
you need to be...

You need to be smart.

Like use a condom?

No.

No, like -- like don't do
anything like it at all.

Well, it's kind of late
for that.

To be talking about it.

I've seen porn.

That's where you think
you learned about sex?

Well, you didn't
talk about it.

Hey, don't act all proud

'cause you got what you think
you know from a website.

No, I got it from people
who know what I'm going through,

people my age. Well, what
are you going through?

Well, what are you going through? I'm
just -- I'm just going through life.

Well, what does that mean
-- "I'm going through"?

I'm just going through life.

Okay, okay.
Yeah, you're going through.

But so -- don't just --
just don't...

-Every other word -- "don't."
-...Do things just to do them.

Don't think some crap
you see on the Internet

or how other people tell you
things are is --

it's not
that big of a deal.

But it is a big deal.

Okay, it is a big deal
if you do something wrong.

And not everybody
gets that.

Did you see -- you see those
pictures that are going around?

The kid from school
got drunk at the party?

-Did you see that?
-Yes. Everybody saw those.

Yeah, everybody saw those.

Everybody saw
that he's a dumbass,

and his life is ruined.

-He got drunk. That's all.
-$55.54.

Dan: Well, I don't know
what he was doing,

but that's out there
forever, all right?

And once it's out there,
there's not anything

anybody can do about it, so --
so don't be him.

Well, I'm not him,
nor do I even know him.

So, I don't know why
you have to assume

I'm gonna do
something wrong.

I don't. I just...

Thanks.

Hey, come on.

Hey.

You okay?

Why did you show those pictures
to my mom?

She already knew
about them.

She kept texting me.

So?

Look, I didn't tell her nothing,
'cause I don't know nothing.

You should have been straight
with her, first off.

Why would I tell her
anything?

Because she's your mom.

And I'm supposed to be
your girlfriend.

You don't talk to her.

You don't even talk to me
anymore.

Look, I just don't want to talk
about that.

Are you good? I'm -- I just
said I'm not trying to...

I just want to know
if you're good.

You can tell me that,
right?

[ Sighs ]

Damn.

Anne:
They keep blaming Taylor.

"Does he have a problem
with drinking?"

"Does he have a problem
with drugs?"

"Oh, just -- just take him
to see someone and go away."

Esposito:
How's Taylor doing?

Depressed?

He's just sad.

Does he engage
with you at all?

I got him
to see a doctor.

But I-I-I think that scared him
more than helped him.

There doesn't have to be a rush
to deal with this.

Victims are allowed time
to decide

if they want to pursue
their case.

Well, he waited
to say anything,

and -- and they act
like it's his fault.

I waited to tell the police,
and they -- they say,

you know,
you're negligent.

There's a time,
there's a window, for victims,

when they're ready to talk.

It might...

I'm saying,
consider it might be better

for Taylor to wait
until he's ready.

So I should
just leave it alone?

You should make sure
that what you're doing

is having a positive effect
on your son.

How are you holding up?

Eh.

If you start feeling
overwhelmed,

if you feel stressed
or anxious...

Yeah, yeah.
I know the signs.

I'm fine.

Well, I'm not fine,
but I'm okay.

Okay.

Yeah.

[ Cellphone vibrates ]

Damn.

Eric.

That thing is sweet.

Yeah. Wanna drive?

Serious?

Not gonna wreck it,
are you?

Hell no, man.

Beat the hell out of that bitch,
but I ain't gonna wreck it.

All right, then.

[ Tires squealing ]

[ Engine revving ]

[ Laughs ]

Ow!

[ Chuckles ]

You're just
a rough boy, huh?

You a rough boy, Eric?

No.

[ Breathing heavily ]

Stop it!

Stop.

I don't like it like that,
all right?

What do you like?

I just want to kiss.

Okay.

Hey, it's okay.

It's okay.

Hey.

Hey.

Name?

My name or...?

Your son's?

Taylor Blaine.

Taylor.
How old is he?

17.

And this is about
last Saturday night --

-the party?
-Yeah.

The school's already been
in contact with the department.

They gave us a summary
of events, pictures.

That's your son?

Yes.

Was he drinking
that night?

He did not get drunk.

Somebody put something
in his drink.

Something what?
Ghb?

They drugged him.

His girlfriend was there.
She saw him.

Why would they
want to give him drugs?

They don't like him.

That's a lot of effort just
because you don't like somebody.

Why would they want --

I don't -- that's --
that's -- that's your job.

That's...

That's what you need
to find out.

You really want to do this
to your son?

My son was raped.

That's a specific category
of crime.

Forced intercourse with
a member of the opposite sex.

What do you want to call it?
What do you want to call it?

I don't care what you call it.
I just need you to do something.

They -- they were taking
pictures, there was drinking.

They -- they talked
about him online.

You can't do something
about that?

That's for the -- you can't
do something with that?

That's for the school
to handle.

-Why? It's a crime.
-Look --

some of these kids are minors.
Your son is a minor.

This is a lot
to put them through.

Kids do dumb stuff.

Now, I'm not talking about
your son, I'm talking about...

Look, I've got a 15-year-old.
I know how it is.

I'd maybe...

If you think your son's

got a drinking problem
or something,

you should really try
to get him some help.

Okay.

[ Door closes ]

You go to these people
asking for help.

[ Ringing ] The minute you
start talking, you can see it.

They don't believe you.

They -- they don't -- they won't
even call it what it is

because they don't think
it happens to boys.

Then I start
doubting myself.

Maybe I got it wrong.

S-so I go online,
and I find all these articles.

Schools, sports teams,
boys getting assaulted.

It happens
more than you think.

I mean, that -- that school
wants to hide it.

The police
want to ignore it.

I shouldn't have to beg people
to care about my son.

I'm gonna take
some notes.

Tell me what you know,

and if there's something there,
I'll pursue it.

The only thing I ask --
can you not print my son's name?

I don't have to use
his name.

But this article
comes out,

it's not gonna be hard
for people to do the math.

They're gonna know
where it's coming from.

So,
before you say anything,

are you sure
you want to go public with this?

Yes. I am.
