1
00:00:01,202 --> 00:00:03,637
BULL: I'm Dr. Jason Bull.
I'm not a lawyer.
2
00:00:03,671 --> 00:00:07,241
I'm an expert in what's called
trial science.
3
00:00:07,275 --> 00:00:11,112
I study the jury's
behavioral patterns.
4
00:00:11,145 --> 00:00:13,347
I know what they're thinking
before they do.
5
00:00:14,548 --> 00:00:18,286
Everything my team learns
gets plugged into a matrix,
6
00:00:18,319 --> 00:00:21,255
which allows us
to assemble a mirror jury
7
00:00:21,289 --> 00:00:24,092
that is scary
in its predictive efficiency.
8
00:00:26,460 --> 00:00:28,829
The verdict you get
depends on me.
9
00:00:28,862 --> 00:00:32,066
And that's no bull.
10
00:00:35,836 --> 00:00:37,738

11
00:00:37,771 --> 00:00:39,773
(indistinct chatter)
12
00:00:41,375 --> 00:00:44,378
ELLEN: Welcome to Open and Shut
with Ellen Huff,
13
00:00:44,412 --> 00:00:46,147
a true crime podcast
14
00:00:46,180 --> 00:00:48,716
investigating the unsolved
murder of college athlete
15
00:00:48,749 --> 00:00:51,719
Mike Tasker,
considered a "golden boy"
16
00:00:51,752 --> 00:00:53,321
for Hudson University's
basketball team.
17
00:00:53,354 --> 00:00:54,588
Three years ago,
18
00:00:54,622 --> 00:00:58,426
Mike was found shot to death
in Central Park,
19
00:00:58,459 --> 00:01:00,428
the apparent victim
of a robbery gone bad.
20
00:01:00,461 --> 00:01:03,397
With no leads since the murder,
21
00:01:03,431 --> 00:01:04,465
the case had gone cold--
22
00:01:04,498 --> 00:01:06,300
that is, until earlier this year
23
00:01:06,334 --> 00:01:07,735
Open and Shut
unearthed a rape allegation
24
00:01:07,768 --> 00:01:11,172
from another college student
named Reese Burton
25
00:01:11,205 --> 00:01:12,840
that the police
knew nothing about.
26
00:01:12,873 --> 00:01:16,110
Three years ago, she filed
an anonymous complaint
27
00:01:16,144 --> 00:01:18,679
accusing Mike of sexually
assaulting her on campus.
28
00:01:18,712 --> 00:01:21,182
The next week,
Reese bought a gun,
29
00:01:21,215 --> 00:01:22,683
began stalking Mike,
30
00:01:22,716 --> 00:01:24,585
and the following week,
she threatened him.
31
00:01:24,618 --> 00:01:27,155
That was the night
he was killed.
32
00:01:27,188 --> 00:01:29,423
All of this was unknown
33
00:01:29,457 --> 00:01:30,558
until my investigation began.
34
00:01:30,591 --> 00:01:32,526
Three years later, Reese's DNA
35
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,295
has been placed
at the scene of the murder,
36
00:01:34,328 --> 00:01:35,296
a damning piece of evidence
37
00:01:35,329 --> 00:01:37,698
that will most certainly
land Reese behind bars.
38
00:01:37,731 --> 00:01:41,635
You are listening to
Open and Shut with Ellen Huff.
39
00:01:41,669 --> 00:01:43,671
REPORTER:
The news media has gone wild
40
00:01:43,704 --> 00:01:45,906
over the sensational
new podcast Open and Shut.
41
00:01:45,939 --> 00:01:47,875
If the cops arrest you,
42
00:01:47,908 --> 00:01:49,877
you're guilty of something.
43
00:01:49,910 --> 00:01:52,446
I love being a part of something
everyone's talking about.
44
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:53,781
It makes me feel
connected.
45
00:01:53,814 --> 00:01:55,316
Sad to say,
46
00:01:55,349 --> 00:01:57,385
a good story spreads
faster than the truth.
47
00:01:57,418 --> 00:02:00,288
Doesn't matter
if you really did it.
48
00:02:00,321 --> 00:02:03,391
All that matters is
that people think you did it.
49
00:02:03,424 --> 00:02:06,494
You don't look like
a lawyer from Legal Aid.
50
00:02:06,527 --> 00:02:08,596
Technically,
I'm a psychologist.
51
00:02:08,629 --> 00:02:12,166
I'm...
Dr. Jason Bull.
52
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,502
Are you analyzing me?
53
00:02:14,535 --> 00:02:15,569
Yes.
54
00:02:15,603 --> 00:02:17,438
But that's not why I'm here.
55
00:02:17,471 --> 00:02:19,607
I'm here because you need help.
A lot of help.
56
00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:21,442
Not the kind of help
you're gonna get from Legal Aid.
57
00:02:21,475 --> 00:02:25,313
Trial Analysis
Corporation?
58
00:02:25,346 --> 00:02:26,914
How do you help with trials?
59
00:02:26,947 --> 00:02:30,184
I change people's minds
for a living.
60
00:02:30,218 --> 00:02:32,220
Especially the jury's.
61
00:02:32,253 --> 00:02:34,488
Have you heard the podcast?
62
00:02:34,522 --> 00:02:35,523
No.
63
00:02:35,556 --> 00:02:38,526
It's not really my thing.
64
00:02:38,559 --> 00:02:40,728
I don't believe in
"open and shut,"
65
00:02:40,761 --> 00:02:43,931
especially when it's made to
entertain 25 million people.
66
00:02:43,964 --> 00:02:46,467
I want to hear you
tell me the story.
67
00:02:46,500 --> 00:02:49,337
Right.
68
00:02:49,370 --> 00:02:51,472
Last time a stranger
approached me
69
00:02:51,505 --> 00:02:53,907
and asked for my story, well...
70
00:02:53,941 --> 00:02:55,709
Ellen Huff sandbagged me
71
00:02:55,743 --> 00:02:58,246
and twisted everything I said
to make me into a killer.
72
00:02:58,279 --> 00:03:00,548
So you can't blame me
if my trust is wearing thin.
73
00:03:00,581 --> 00:03:02,816
Okay.
74
00:03:02,850 --> 00:03:04,418
I understand.
75
00:03:04,452 --> 00:03:06,754
Enjoy prison.
It was nice to meet you.
76
00:03:09,523 --> 00:03:10,524
Wait.
77
00:03:10,558 --> 00:03:12,660
Where are you going?
78
00:03:12,693 --> 00:03:15,663
Well, I thought we were through.
79
00:03:17,998 --> 00:03:19,867
Why do you think I'm innocent?
80
00:03:25,373 --> 00:03:29,410
Because rape survivors
react in different ways.
81
00:03:29,443 --> 00:03:31,445
And rage is one of those.
82
00:03:32,813 --> 00:03:35,549
Enough rage to kill
their perpetrator?
83
00:03:35,583 --> 00:03:36,984
Absolutely.
84
00:03:37,017 --> 00:03:38,886
But that's not
how you reacted.
85
00:03:38,919 --> 00:03:40,421
The way you reacted...
86
00:03:40,454 --> 00:03:43,791
You can't fake
that kind of pain.
87
00:03:45,726 --> 00:03:47,027
Why don't you tell me
88
00:03:47,060 --> 00:03:49,630
why this podcast
is full of crap?
89
00:03:59,807 --> 00:04:03,477
I met Mike at this
Phi Delt party.
90
00:04:03,511 --> 00:04:05,513
He walked me home.
91
00:04:06,747 --> 00:04:08,549
He asked to use
the bathroom.
92
00:04:11,719 --> 00:04:13,721
(scoffs)
93
00:04:13,754 --> 00:04:15,756
I was so naive.
94
00:04:17,057 --> 00:04:19,527
The next day, I reported it
to the administration.
95
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,729
I...
96
00:04:21,762 --> 00:04:24,365
They said they would
"look into it."
97
00:04:24,398 --> 00:04:26,567
But the Hudson University
basketball team
98
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,068
made it into
the finals that year.
99
00:04:28,101 --> 00:04:29,537
Ah.
100
00:04:29,570 --> 00:04:31,439
And they were gonna protect
their star player.
101
00:04:31,472 --> 00:04:32,806
Didn't matter.
102
00:04:32,840 --> 00:04:33,941
A few weeks later,
Mike was dead
103
00:04:33,974 --> 00:04:35,609
and that was the end of it.
104
00:04:35,643 --> 00:04:36,610
I got a job, made new friends,
105
00:04:36,644 --> 00:04:38,512
put it behind me.
106
00:04:38,546 --> 00:04:40,648
And then, three years later,
Ellen Huff
107
00:04:40,681 --> 00:04:42,516
uncovers your complaint
against Mike?
108
00:04:42,550 --> 00:04:45,519
Yeah, this claim
that I filed anonymously.
109
00:04:45,553 --> 00:04:48,656
'Cause I didn't want
to forever be that girl...
110
00:04:48,689 --> 00:04:49,990
that girl that was raped.
111
00:04:50,023 --> 00:04:52,560
After Ellen outed me,
112
00:04:52,593 --> 00:04:54,061
the police
reopened the case.
113
00:04:54,094 --> 00:04:56,997
They said that my hair
matched a hair on Mike's jacket,
114
00:04:57,030 --> 00:05:01,569
and boom,
my world is upside-down.
115
00:05:01,602 --> 00:05:03,571
But Ellen twisted all the facts.
116
00:05:03,604 --> 00:05:05,606
What about this hair
on the jacket
117
00:05:05,639 --> 00:05:07,107
that's a perfect DNA match?
118
00:05:07,140 --> 00:05:09,677
That makes sense.
119
00:05:09,710 --> 00:05:12,680
The night Mike was killed,
he was wearing the same jacket
120
00:05:12,713 --> 00:05:14,715
as the night he wore when he...
121
00:05:17,518 --> 00:05:19,687
...you know.
122
00:05:21,889 --> 00:05:23,824
I didn't kill Mike.
123
00:05:25,893 --> 00:05:28,028
I believe you.
124
00:05:30,698 --> 00:05:31,932
(lock buzzes)
125
00:05:31,965 --> 00:05:33,867
(door opens)
126
00:05:33,901 --> 00:05:35,769
Can you get me out of here?
127
00:05:36,970 --> 00:05:38,138
(sniffs)
128
00:05:38,171 --> 00:05:40,140
I take it this case
is pro bono.
129
00:05:40,173 --> 00:05:42,676
Which is why you need to try it.
130
00:05:42,710 --> 00:05:44,011
Think that's
a compliment?
131
00:05:44,044 --> 00:05:46,046
You have heard the podcast.
132
00:05:46,079 --> 00:05:47,815
I will, as soon as
we've done our research.
133
00:05:47,848 --> 00:05:49,517
And I know
she was a victim.
134
00:05:49,550 --> 00:05:50,684
She's still a victim,
135
00:05:50,718 --> 00:05:52,586
a second time.
136
00:05:52,620 --> 00:05:54,888
We're trying this case, Benny.
137
00:05:54,922 --> 00:05:55,956
Okay.
138
00:05:55,989 --> 00:05:58,158
Good. Good.
139
00:05:58,191 --> 00:06:01,595
I've been eager to step back in
the ring with the D.A.'s office.
140
00:06:01,629 --> 00:06:04,131
I wonder who I get
to knock gloves with.
141
00:06:11,705 --> 00:06:13,807
Amanda.
142
00:06:13,841 --> 00:06:16,143
Did you know she was
prosecuting this case?
143
00:06:19,513 --> 00:06:20,581
Benny.
144
00:06:20,614 --> 00:06:21,715
Amanda.
145
00:06:21,749 --> 00:06:23,951
What a surprise.
146
00:06:23,984 --> 00:06:25,986
I heard you were working
with your brother-in-law.
147
00:06:26,019 --> 00:06:27,988
Ex-brother-in-law.
Dr. Jason Bull.
148
00:06:28,021 --> 00:06:29,790
Your reputation precedes you.
149
00:06:31,625 --> 00:06:32,960
So... how have you been?
150
00:06:32,993 --> 00:06:33,961
Busy.
151
00:06:33,994 --> 00:06:35,729
I didn't realize
152
00:06:35,763 --> 00:06:36,964
you were still trying cases.
153
00:06:36,997 --> 00:06:38,065
I was fired.
154
00:06:38,098 --> 00:06:39,800
I didn't die.
155
00:06:39,833 --> 00:06:41,602
That's not what I meant.
156
00:06:41,635 --> 00:06:43,737
Anyways, you shouldn't
take this to trial.
157
00:06:43,771 --> 00:06:44,838
It's open and shut.
158
00:06:44,872 --> 00:06:45,906
BAILIFF:
All rise.
159
00:06:45,939 --> 00:06:49,176
The Superior Court of New York
is now in session.
160
00:06:49,209 --> 00:06:51,979
State v. Reese Burton,
161
00:06:52,012 --> 00:06:56,717
case number
0255348.
162
00:06:57,751 --> 00:06:58,986
How do you plead?
163
00:07:03,691 --> 00:07:05,693
Not guilty, Your Honor.
164
00:07:06,827 --> 00:07:08,462
BULL:
Reese, it's a good sign
165
00:07:08,496 --> 00:07:09,830
the judge granted bail.
166
00:07:09,863 --> 00:07:12,966
Chin up, back straight,
don't smile, don't frown,
167
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,668
don't look at anyone.
REPORTER:
Reese!
168
00:07:14,702 --> 00:07:16,069
You're not guilty; there's
nothing to be ashamed of.
169
00:07:16,103 --> 00:07:17,971
REPORTER 2:
Reese, do you expect
a fair trial?
170
00:07:18,005 --> 00:07:19,907
(reporters clamoring)
171
00:07:19,940 --> 00:07:21,041
I can't catch my breath.
172
00:07:21,074 --> 00:07:22,710
Okay. Taxi!
173
00:07:25,613 --> 00:07:27,180
Hey, reporters, media!
174
00:07:27,214 --> 00:07:28,549
Have we got a show for you!
175
00:07:28,582 --> 00:07:30,484
Whoa!
176
00:07:30,518 --> 00:07:32,720
So gather round, gather round,
ladies and gentlemen!
177
00:07:32,753 --> 00:07:35,122
Whatever your pleasure, we here,
we got a great show for you!
178
00:07:35,155 --> 00:07:36,757
Now, I know you don't want to...
179
00:07:36,790 --> 00:07:38,559
(continues indistinctly)
180
00:07:38,592 --> 00:07:39,660
...that you really don't want
to talk to.
181
00:07:39,693 --> 00:07:41,461

00:07:43,296 --> 00:07:45,733
MARISSA:
Are we on The Amazing Race?
183
00:07:45,766 --> 00:07:47,535
'Cause I left
my running heels at home.
184
00:07:47,568 --> 00:07:48,536
Right.
185
00:07:48,569 --> 00:07:49,870
I just want
to get back to TAC
186
00:07:49,903 --> 00:07:51,104
and start testing
this case.
187
00:07:51,138 --> 00:07:52,906
Look, if this is about Amanda...
188
00:07:52,940 --> 00:07:54,007
Whoa, hey.
189
00:07:54,041 --> 00:07:55,809
Are you accusing me
of fast walking
190
00:07:55,843 --> 00:07:57,545
to avoid talking
about Amanda?
191
00:07:57,578 --> 00:07:58,846
Defensive much?
192
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:01,715
How did you guys end it?
193
00:08:01,749 --> 00:08:03,684
Not well.
194
00:08:03,717 --> 00:08:04,852
You know?
195
00:08:04,885 --> 00:08:06,053
I didn't plan to quit
the D.A.'s office,
196
00:08:06,086 --> 00:08:08,556
but there I was,
in front of two reporters,
197
00:08:08,589 --> 00:08:10,824
about to get a conviction
on a man I knew was innocent.
198
00:08:10,858 --> 00:08:12,225
I just...
199
00:08:12,259 --> 00:08:14,595
I couldn't do it.
200
00:08:14,628 --> 00:08:17,531
You're the Jerry Maguire of
the American judicial system.
201
00:08:17,565 --> 00:08:19,199
Yeah, well...
202
00:08:19,232 --> 00:08:22,770
I guess I thought Amanda was
gonna be my Renée Zellweger.
203
00:08:22,803 --> 00:08:24,772
That she'd come with me
when I left.
204
00:08:24,805 --> 00:08:26,173
Her loss, our gain.
205
00:08:27,675 --> 00:08:29,843
CABLE:
Don't sweat the mock trial,
okay?
206
00:08:29,877 --> 00:08:31,679
It's all just
part of the process.
207
00:08:31,712 --> 00:08:35,783
I'm not worried, I just
don't like the idea of
208
00:08:35,816 --> 00:08:38,118
having more strangers
judging me.
209
00:08:38,151 --> 00:08:39,720
I can't imagine why.
210
00:08:39,753 --> 00:08:40,854
(phone chimes)
211
00:08:40,888 --> 00:08:42,790
So, certain
tonal frequencies
212
00:08:42,823 --> 00:08:46,560
are known to have a measurable
effect on brain function,
213
00:08:46,594 --> 00:08:49,296
and I wrote this app
that creates music
214
00:08:49,329 --> 00:08:51,999
to help you relax,
focus...
215
00:08:52,032 --> 00:08:54,134
It helps me to block out
distractions--
216
00:08:54,167 --> 00:08:56,604
namely, Dr. Bull.
217
00:08:59,106 --> 00:09:02,142
(soothing tonal landscape
playing)
218
00:09:02,175 --> 00:09:03,744
I like it.
219
00:09:03,777 --> 00:09:06,113
It's not exactly
Tin Lizard, but...
220
00:09:06,146 --> 00:09:07,948
it's cool.
221
00:09:07,981 --> 00:09:09,817
You're into the Lizard?
222
00:09:10,984 --> 00:09:11,952
They're awesome.
223
00:09:11,985 --> 00:09:13,987
Okay, well, I might have info
224
00:09:14,021 --> 00:09:15,689
that they're playing
a super secret show
225
00:09:15,723 --> 00:09:17,791
and you should
totally come.
226
00:09:17,825 --> 00:09:18,792
Yeah, yeah.
227
00:09:18,826 --> 00:09:20,127
I just might have plans.
228
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,029
You know,
like jail.
229
00:09:22,062 --> 00:09:23,997
Have faith.
230
00:09:24,031 --> 00:09:26,700
Dr. Bull might be
generationally challenged,
231
00:09:26,734 --> 00:09:27,835
but he's the best.
232
00:09:27,868 --> 00:09:29,970
Where is Dr. Bull?
233
00:09:30,003 --> 00:09:32,072
Prosecuting your case
234
00:09:32,105 --> 00:09:33,006
right how.
235
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,943
The week after she filed
an assault claim,
236
00:09:35,976 --> 00:09:37,110
Reese went out and purchased
237
00:09:37,144 --> 00:09:38,846
a nine-millimeter handgun.
238
00:09:38,879 --> 00:09:41,081
And two weeks later,
she got her chance to use it.
239
00:09:41,114 --> 00:09:43,951
She followed Mike
to a concert in Central Park.
240
00:09:43,984 --> 00:09:47,087
She threatened to shoot him
241
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:51,091
and, hours later,
Mike Tasker was shot to death.
242
00:09:51,124 --> 00:09:53,293
Bull would've made
a hell of a prosecutor.
243
00:09:53,326 --> 00:09:54,227
Huh.
244
00:09:54,261 --> 00:09:56,997
Never seen the trend line
spike so fast.
245
00:09:57,030 --> 00:09:58,065
I mean, 70's a problem.
246
00:09:58,098 --> 00:10:00,801
80's.... intent to convict.
247
00:10:00,834 --> 00:10:03,837
90's... burn her
at the stake.
248
00:10:03,871 --> 00:10:05,673
(exhales)
249
00:10:05,706 --> 00:10:07,174
She's guilty.
250
00:10:07,207 --> 00:10:08,241
MIRROR JUROR:
I agree.
251
00:10:08,275 --> 00:10:09,409
MIRROR JUROR 2: Who heard her
making the threat?
252
00:10:09,442 --> 00:10:10,744
I mean, did that really happen?
253
00:10:10,778 --> 00:10:13,146
It was Mike's friend,
Rob McKellen.
254
00:10:13,180 --> 00:10:15,048
They're bringing things up
from the podcast.
255
00:10:15,082 --> 00:10:17,818
I thought we put together
people who hadn't heard it.
256
00:10:17,851 --> 00:10:20,721
I did, and we instructed them
not to listen to it.
257
00:10:20,754 --> 00:10:22,122
What?
258
00:10:22,155 --> 00:10:25,392
These two were downloading
the podcast during lunch?
259
00:10:25,425 --> 00:10:26,994
As soon as they
left the building.
260
00:10:27,027 --> 00:10:28,195
It's wet paint.
261
00:10:28,228 --> 00:10:30,297
They can't help
but touch it.
262
00:10:30,330 --> 00:10:32,332
It's corrupted
every member of the jury.
263
00:10:33,901 --> 00:10:35,202
BENNY:
We need to sequester the jury.
264
00:10:35,235 --> 00:10:39,907
Judge Rand has denied 22
requests for sequesters
265
00:10:39,940 --> 00:10:44,277
out of 22, citing "a waste
of taxpayer dollars."
266
00:10:44,311 --> 00:10:46,013
Well, the podcast
is already out there.
267
00:10:46,046 --> 00:10:48,215
(sighs)
It's been field-tested
by 25 million people.
268
00:10:48,248 --> 00:10:50,050
BENNY:
If Amanda follows
Ellen's narrative,
269
00:10:50,083 --> 00:10:51,218
she'll get a conviction.
270
00:10:51,251 --> 00:10:52,152
Or...
271
00:10:52,185 --> 00:10:54,922
we replace Ellen's story
with a better one.
272
00:10:54,955 --> 00:10:57,691
I'm listening.
273
00:10:57,725 --> 00:10:59,960
Let me tell you
a little story
274
00:10:59,993 --> 00:11:02,395
about an incompetent
journalist.
275
00:11:02,429 --> 00:11:05,298
She takes a rape victim
and falsely accuses her
276
00:11:05,332 --> 00:11:07,167
of murder.
277
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,201
(beeps)
278
00:11:10,103 --> 00:11:12,305
It's time to put Ellen on trial.
279
00:11:12,339 --> 00:11:15,342
We are going to
dismantle her podcast.
280
00:11:15,375 --> 00:11:17,945
Reese Burton and her defense
team have subpoenaed my files
281
00:11:17,978 --> 00:11:19,747
in a desperate attempt
to distract the jury
282
00:11:19,780 --> 00:11:20,881
from a guilty client.
283
00:11:20,914 --> 00:11:22,315
Ms. Huff? Will you be sharing
284
00:11:22,349 --> 00:11:23,717
your information
with the court?
285
00:11:23,751 --> 00:11:25,285
Freedom of the press
is one of our most sacred
286
00:11:25,318 --> 00:11:27,354
constitutional rights.
Woodward and Bernstein,
287
00:11:27,387 --> 00:11:30,891
Daniel Ellsberg.
I, too, protect my sources.
(laughs) But are...
288
00:11:30,924 --> 00:11:32,492
Aren't those journalists
from some of the greatest
289
00:11:32,525 --> 00:11:34,294
news organizations
in the country?
290
00:11:34,327 --> 00:11:36,196
Sadly, those dinosaurs
are no longer relevant.
291
00:11:36,229 --> 00:11:38,799
Today, citizen journalists
fulfill the important work
292
00:11:38,832 --> 00:11:40,500
of the Fourth Estate,
and I'll go to jail
293
00:11:40,533 --> 00:11:43,270
before compromising the
integrity of my podcast.
294
00:11:43,303 --> 00:11:45,272
(excited chatter)
295
00:11:47,775 --> 00:11:51,111
And the cell door closes on
Open and Shut with Ellen Huff.
296
00:11:51,144 --> 00:11:53,180
We don't have to worry about
her releasing any more episodes
297
00:11:53,213 --> 00:11:54,748
as long as she's in jail.
298
00:11:54,782 --> 00:11:56,950
So, you're a reporter now?
299
00:11:56,984 --> 00:11:59,286
I'm a citizen journalist.
I have a blog,
300
00:11:59,319 --> 00:12:02,122
check it out.
CABLE: Yeah, we write about
anything and everything
301
00:12:02,155 --> 00:12:04,357
having to do with Reese's case.
302
00:12:04,391 --> 00:12:06,526
With Ellen in jail,
we can control the narrative,
303
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:07,427
so, Cable,
304
00:12:07,460 --> 00:12:09,429
why don't you go behind
Instagram on Mike,
305
00:12:09,462 --> 00:12:10,998
see what social media
has to say.
306
00:12:11,031 --> 00:12:13,000
We have a jury pool list yet?
307
00:12:13,033 --> 00:12:15,368
70 have daughters.
308
00:12:15,402 --> 00:12:17,104
82 have sons.
309
00:12:17,137 --> 00:12:19,139
People with daughters
should be on our side.
310
00:12:19,172 --> 00:12:20,073
Let's build a full
motivational matrix
311
00:12:20,107 --> 00:12:22,409
of every possible juror's
thoughts on Mike,
312
00:12:22,442 --> 00:12:26,013
Reese, rape on campus
and college basketball.
313
00:12:26,046 --> 00:12:28,248
Which jurors have abuse
in their background?
314
00:12:28,281 --> 00:12:30,818
I'm still investigating,
but... it's a lot.
315
00:12:30,851 --> 00:12:33,286
I mean, statistically,
one in four.
316
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,223
So, Danny, let's dig
into the witness list.
317
00:12:36,256 --> 00:12:39,827
We need alternative theories,
unfollowed leads.
318
00:12:39,860 --> 00:12:42,830
Our case hinges on finding
the facts that Ellen ignored.
319
00:12:42,863 --> 00:12:44,932
On it.
320
00:12:44,965 --> 00:12:46,934
How'd you know she'd
put herself in jail
321
00:12:46,967 --> 00:12:48,869
if we subpoenaed
her raw interviews?
322
00:12:48,902 --> 00:12:51,038
Well, the podcast
gave her notoriety,
323
00:12:51,071 --> 00:12:53,273
but...
Oh.
324
00:12:53,306 --> 00:12:55,843
falling on the sword gave her
what she really wanted.
325
00:12:55,876 --> 00:12:58,411
Legitimacy.
326
00:12:58,445 --> 00:13:00,480
How much time you
think we've bought?
327
00:13:00,513 --> 00:13:02,983
Well... as long as Ellen's
integrity will hold up
328
00:13:03,016 --> 00:13:05,352
against the county jail food.
329
00:13:05,385 --> 00:13:07,054
(crunches)
330
00:13:07,087 --> 00:13:09,156
Two days, max.
331
00:13:14,928 --> 00:13:15,896
CHUNK: Reese, you're going
to appear in front of
332
00:13:15,929 --> 00:13:17,030
the jury today.
333
00:13:17,064 --> 00:13:20,467
What you wear in court
is as important as what you say.
334
00:13:20,500 --> 00:13:23,403
You're wearing...
335
00:13:23,436 --> 00:13:24,604
I don't know
what you're wearing.
336
00:13:24,637 --> 00:13:29,576
But it's at least
three sizes too big.
337
00:13:29,609 --> 00:13:31,578
They're comfortable.
338
00:13:31,611 --> 00:13:34,114
That's not comfort, Mama,
that's camouflage.
339
00:13:34,147 --> 00:13:36,850
If you hide in front of
the jury in all that,
340
00:13:36,884 --> 00:13:38,551
they're gonna think you
have something to hide.
341
00:13:40,087 --> 00:13:42,990
Silk. It softens the look,
342
00:13:43,023 --> 00:13:44,624
and I'm sewing
your pockets shut.
343
00:13:44,657 --> 00:13:47,194
Why?
344
00:13:47,227 --> 00:13:50,130
(chuckles) Look... your hands
are in your pockets...
345
00:13:50,163 --> 00:13:52,966
People automatically
think you're
346
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,102
being dishonest when
they can't see your hands.
347
00:13:55,135 --> 00:13:56,236
How we doing?
348
00:13:56,269 --> 00:13:57,871
Is it too late to run?
349
00:13:57,905 --> 00:13:59,606
I usually advise
my clients to run
350
00:13:59,639 --> 00:14:01,108
before they get arrested.
351
00:14:01,141 --> 00:14:03,877
Um...
352
00:14:03,911 --> 00:14:05,879
Dr. Bull, this is, um...
353
00:14:05,913 --> 00:14:07,580
this is... getting a little...
too real...
Reese, it's okay.
354
00:14:07,614 --> 00:14:09,983
You're having a panic attack.
Come sit down.
355
00:14:10,017 --> 00:14:12,152
Just repeat after me. Okay?
356
00:14:12,185 --> 00:14:16,890
One, two, three, seven,
eight, four, two.
357
00:14:16,924 --> 00:14:18,959
(exhales)
What?
358
00:14:18,992 --> 00:14:20,227
One, two, three,
359
00:14:20,260 --> 00:14:22,229
seven, nine, 11, six.
360
00:14:22,262 --> 00:14:24,397
(gasping):
One, two,
361
00:14:24,431 --> 00:14:26,866
three, nine...
362
00:14:29,202 --> 00:14:33,173
One, two, three...
363
00:14:33,206 --> 00:14:34,942
seven, nine,
364
00:14:34,975 --> 00:14:36,977
eleven...
365
00:14:38,211 --> 00:14:40,180
six.
366
00:14:42,349 --> 00:14:44,952
How did you do that?
367
00:14:44,985 --> 00:14:49,589
The mind can't freak out
and count numbers out of order.
368
00:14:49,622 --> 00:14:51,959
How long you been having
these panic attacks?
369
00:14:51,992 --> 00:14:54,928
Ever since...
370
00:14:54,962 --> 00:14:57,164
Mike. I, um...
371
00:14:57,197 --> 00:15:01,001
(sniffles) I usually just go
running and it calms me down.
372
00:15:01,034 --> 00:15:03,103
Well, when this is over,
373
00:15:03,136 --> 00:15:06,006
you're gonna go running
whenever you want.
374
00:15:06,039 --> 00:15:08,575
Not because you have to.
375
00:15:10,110 --> 00:15:12,245
Which do you prefer?
376
00:15:12,279 --> 00:15:13,947
Still life with fruit,
377
00:15:13,981 --> 00:15:15,315
or this abstract painting?
Your Honor,
378
00:15:15,348 --> 00:15:17,450
we're trying to hold
a voir dire session here,
379
00:15:17,484 --> 00:15:19,319
not an auction at Sotheby's.
380
00:15:19,352 --> 00:15:21,421
I prefer neither, Mr. Colón.
381
00:15:21,454 --> 00:15:22,990
Understood, Your Honor,
382
00:15:23,023 --> 00:15:25,192
but I do have the right
to ask the question.
383
00:15:25,225 --> 00:15:27,227
Not for long. Proceed.
384
00:15:29,062 --> 00:15:30,263
Uh, definitely the fruit.
385
00:15:30,297 --> 00:15:32,099
I like to know
what I'm looking at.
Hmm.
386
00:15:32,132 --> 00:15:33,666
What are we doing with art...
387
00:15:33,700 --> 00:15:36,503
and fruit?
How does this help?
388
00:15:36,536 --> 00:15:37,971
People who like
abstract paintings
389
00:15:38,005 --> 00:15:41,741
are open to new ideas.
New stories.
390
00:15:41,774 --> 00:15:43,076
We just don't want
to let the other side
391
00:15:43,110 --> 00:15:45,345
know what we're fishing for.
392
00:15:45,378 --> 00:15:48,015
How many of you
prefer the fruit?
393
00:15:48,048 --> 00:15:50,517
Okay. Jurors number four,
seven and 12--
394
00:15:50,550 --> 00:15:53,120
move to strike, Your Honor.
395
00:15:55,222 --> 00:15:57,357
(beeps)
BENNY: What should
the penalty be for rape?
396
00:15:57,390 --> 00:15:58,525
Prison.
397
00:15:58,558 --> 00:15:59,993
Five years minimum.
398
00:16:00,027 --> 00:16:00,760
He has a daughter?
399
00:16:00,793 --> 00:16:03,063
Granddaughters. Twin teenagers.
400
00:16:03,096 --> 00:16:05,232
He dotes on him.
BULL: He's in.
401
00:16:05,265 --> 00:16:06,599
Tell me about
this ray of sunshine,
402
00:16:06,633 --> 00:16:08,735
Tom.
403
00:16:08,768 --> 00:16:10,637
MARISSA:
64. Divorced.
404
00:16:10,670 --> 00:16:12,472
Three times.
405
00:16:12,505 --> 00:16:15,042
We did a motivational matrix
on Tom.
406
00:16:15,075 --> 00:16:16,676
Yeah, Bull.
407
00:16:16,709 --> 00:16:18,578
He uses very aggressive language
when he's online.
408
00:16:18,611 --> 00:16:21,181
Who's next if we bounce him?
409
00:16:21,214 --> 00:16:23,083
Uh, Wade Macklin. 32.
410
00:16:23,116 --> 00:16:27,620
Unmarried.
Uh, professional organizer.
411
00:16:27,654 --> 00:16:31,224
Well, I like the sweater
and the scruff.
412
00:16:31,258 --> 00:16:34,194
But he puts things
in boxes for a living.
413
00:16:34,227 --> 00:16:36,463
We only have one strike left.
414
00:16:36,496 --> 00:16:39,099
Hmm.
415
00:16:39,132 --> 00:16:41,768
(sighs)
Okay.
416
00:16:41,801 --> 00:16:43,336
Does Wade have a pet?
417
00:16:43,370 --> 00:16:45,072
Labradoodle.
418
00:16:45,105 --> 00:16:46,806
He had back surgery last year.
419
00:16:46,839 --> 00:16:48,475
Cost Wade a whopping six grand.
420
00:16:48,508 --> 00:16:49,609
So cute.
421
00:16:49,642 --> 00:16:51,778
Oh, Wade.
422
00:16:51,811 --> 00:16:55,782
He may be rigid,
but he has a heart.
423
00:16:55,815 --> 00:16:58,151
He loves his dog.
424
00:17:03,423 --> 00:17:05,158
The defense would like
to thank this juror
425
00:17:05,192 --> 00:17:09,196
for his time and service.
Move to strike, Your Honor.
426
00:17:09,229 --> 00:17:10,297
I'm 32 years old.
427
00:17:10,330 --> 00:17:11,764
I'm 32 years old.
428
00:17:11,798 --> 00:17:12,832
I lived in Paris
for two years.
429
00:17:12,865 --> 00:17:14,734
I lived in Paris
for two years.
430
00:17:14,767 --> 00:17:15,802
I'm an artist.
431
00:17:15,835 --> 00:17:17,404
I'm an artist.
432
00:17:17,437 --> 00:17:18,605
I work on Wall Street.
433
00:17:18,638 --> 00:17:20,273
I work on Wall Street.
434
00:17:20,307 --> 00:17:23,676
We managed to assemble a mirror
jury that makes me tingly
435
00:17:23,710 --> 00:17:25,712
in its perfection.
Their demographics line up
436
00:17:25,745 --> 00:17:27,480
82% with the actual jury.
437
00:17:27,514 --> 00:17:29,716
BULL: How's the initial polling?
Uh, three on the fence.
438
00:17:29,749 --> 00:17:30,717
Nine strongly in favor
of conviction.
439
00:17:30,750 --> 00:17:33,120
Doesn't sound like perfection
if you're Reese.
440
00:17:33,153 --> 00:17:33,953
What... exactly as predicted,
441
00:17:33,986 --> 00:17:35,488
given the court
of public opinion.
442
00:17:35,522 --> 00:17:37,424
At least these are the type
open to considering
443
00:17:37,457 --> 00:17:38,691
an alternate narrative.
444
00:17:38,725 --> 00:17:41,194
Cable, what did you find on Mike
445
00:17:41,228 --> 00:17:43,096
that the jury has not heard yet?
446
00:17:43,130 --> 00:17:45,232
A lot, starting with the fact
447
00:17:45,265 --> 00:17:47,634
that Hudson University
had dozens
448
00:17:47,667 --> 00:17:49,202
of unreported
sexual assault claims.
449
00:17:49,236 --> 00:17:51,738
And none of them ended
in criminal charges.
450
00:17:51,771 --> 00:17:53,773
And this story about sexual
assault on the Hudson campus
451
00:17:53,806 --> 00:17:55,575
that was in
the New York Ledger
452
00:17:55,608 --> 00:17:57,310
today... is that a coincidence?
453
00:17:57,344 --> 00:18:00,180
Ellen doesn't have
a monopoly on exposés.
454
00:18:00,213 --> 00:18:01,381
Well, let's make sure
it links to our blog,
455
00:18:01,414 --> 00:18:04,851
though it doesn't help enough
with our case against Ellen.
456
00:18:04,884 --> 00:18:06,319
No, but...
457
00:18:06,353 --> 00:18:07,554
this does.
458
00:18:07,587 --> 00:18:09,456
Another Jane Doe filed
an assault charge
459
00:18:09,489 --> 00:18:10,857
against Mike on campus
460
00:18:10,890 --> 00:18:12,225
that same semester.
461
00:18:12,259 --> 00:18:13,693
How could Ellen
have missed that?
462
00:18:13,726 --> 00:18:14,894
Well, either she didn't
do her homework,
463
00:18:14,927 --> 00:18:16,563
or it didn't fit her narrative.
464
00:18:16,596 --> 00:18:18,365
Let's find out who
this Jane Doe is.
465
00:18:18,398 --> 00:18:19,866
I've got this one.
466
00:18:19,899 --> 00:18:22,535
DANNY: What if it was Mike's
girlfriend, Gina Stefano?
467
00:18:22,569 --> 00:18:24,737
In the podcast, she said
they were soul mates.
468
00:18:24,771 --> 00:18:27,340
But if so, their souls bonded
over their hot tempers.
469
00:18:27,374 --> 00:18:28,908
Apparently, these two
fought constantly.
470
00:18:28,941 --> 00:18:31,211
BULL: She's the
prosecution's next witness.
471
00:18:31,244 --> 00:18:33,380
Benny, let's prepare a cross.
472
00:18:33,413 --> 00:18:35,215
*
473
00:18:44,957 --> 00:18:46,859
Mike's former teammates
and coach.
474
00:18:46,893 --> 00:18:47,860
AMANDA:
When did you first learn
475
00:18:47,894 --> 00:18:48,728
about Mike and Reese?
476
00:18:48,761 --> 00:18:51,264
We were on a break,
when he had this...
477
00:18:51,298 --> 00:18:52,399
drunken hookup with Reese.
478
00:18:52,432 --> 00:18:53,600
And that didn't upset you?
479
00:18:53,633 --> 00:18:55,235
No.
480
00:18:55,268 --> 00:18:56,703
Mike told me everything.
481
00:18:56,736 --> 00:18:58,371
BULL: They're here
for the prosecution.
482
00:18:58,405 --> 00:19:01,374
Amanda's good. I can see why
483
00:19:01,408 --> 00:19:03,443
you had a thing for her.
484
00:19:03,476 --> 00:19:04,944
Reese became obsessed with him,
485
00:19:04,977 --> 00:19:07,947
started stalking him.
486
00:19:07,980 --> 00:19:10,283
If I had known
that she bought a gun,
487
00:19:10,317 --> 00:19:11,418
I would've told
488
00:19:11,451 --> 00:19:12,952
the police back then.
489
00:19:12,985 --> 00:19:15,455
Right on script.
That's the podcast verbatim.
490
00:19:15,488 --> 00:19:16,489
AMANDA:
Nothing further.
491
00:19:18,958 --> 00:19:22,962
Ms. Stefano, did you and Mike
Tasker ever fight?
492
00:19:22,995 --> 00:19:26,466
Sure. Every couple does.
One friend reported
493
00:19:26,499 --> 00:19:28,668
that you often threw dishes
at each other.
494
00:19:28,701 --> 00:19:31,204
(scoffs)
Okay, not often.
495
00:19:31,238 --> 00:19:32,972
Mike could get out of line.
Every once in a while,
496
00:19:33,005 --> 00:19:34,674
I had to pop him one.
497
00:19:34,707 --> 00:19:35,908
We were both
very passionate.
498
00:19:35,942 --> 00:19:38,478
So passionate that you filed
an assault claim against him?
499
00:19:38,511 --> 00:19:40,347
Under a Jane Doe,
is that correct?
500
00:19:40,380 --> 00:19:41,981
AMANDA:
Objection, relevance.
501
00:19:42,014 --> 00:19:43,983
Your Honor, the deceased
is not on trial here.
502
00:19:44,016 --> 00:19:46,253
I'll allow it.
GINA: Look,
503
00:19:46,286 --> 00:19:47,086
I was just mad at him, okay?
504
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:48,721
And I dropped it,
like, a week later.
505
00:19:48,755 --> 00:19:50,457
We were both under
a lot of pressure,
506
00:19:50,490 --> 00:19:52,492
and things got heated,
and that's all.
507
00:19:52,525 --> 00:19:55,995
So you, a self-described
hothead, you were angry?
508
00:19:56,028 --> 00:19:56,996
(scoffs)
Sure.
509
00:19:57,029 --> 00:19:57,864
And under pressure.
Yeah.
510
00:19:57,897 --> 00:19:59,799
Did you kill Mike Tasker?
Objection.
511
00:19:59,832 --> 00:20:00,867
Sustained.
512
00:20:00,900 --> 00:20:03,503
Did you ever tell Ellen Huff
about your turbulent
513
00:20:03,536 --> 00:20:05,238
relationship with Mike?
514
00:20:05,272 --> 00:20:06,873
She never asked.
515
00:20:06,906 --> 00:20:10,209
BENNY: So, Ellen Huff was not
interested in the truth.
516
00:20:11,878 --> 00:20:14,714
BENNY:
She never asked.
517
00:20:19,886 --> 00:20:20,820
Just picked up
Aaron and Claudia.
518
00:20:20,853 --> 00:20:22,989
Claudia read
the Ledger rape story
519
00:20:23,022 --> 00:20:26,293
and is convinced that Ellen did
a poor job reporting the facts.
520
00:20:26,326 --> 00:20:28,595
I take it you hacked
her computer,
521
00:20:28,628 --> 00:20:29,796
implanted your news story.
522
00:20:29,829 --> 00:20:32,699
It wasn't very secure.
523
00:20:32,732 --> 00:20:35,268
Okay, Amanda's next witness up
is Rob McKellen.
524
00:20:35,302 --> 00:20:38,538
Fraternity brother
and Mike's best friend.
525
00:20:38,571 --> 00:20:40,006
What's all this about pedicures?
526
00:20:42,775 --> 00:20:44,511
Chunk.
527
00:20:44,544 --> 00:20:46,346
Back in college,
he and Mike Tasker traded
528
00:20:46,379 --> 00:20:48,881
a bunch of e-mails back and
forth scheduling pedicures.
529
00:20:48,915 --> 00:20:51,017
Pedis.
530
00:20:51,050 --> 00:20:52,885
Any of your teammates
get pedis?
531
00:20:52,919 --> 00:20:54,787
Pedicures?
(laughs)
532
00:20:54,821 --> 00:20:57,457
Who we talking about,
these guys?
533
00:20:57,490 --> 00:21:00,827
No.
534
00:21:00,860 --> 00:21:04,531
Not these guys.
I'm thinking pedis... is code.
535
00:21:08,468 --> 00:21:10,837
BENNY: You ever get a pedicure,
Mr. McKellen?
536
00:21:10,870 --> 00:21:12,372
Objection, relevance.
537
00:21:12,405 --> 00:21:13,540
RAND:
I'm curious.
538
00:21:13,573 --> 00:21:14,674
What? No, I...
539
00:21:14,707 --> 00:21:15,675
No?
540
00:21:15,708 --> 00:21:17,877
Then how do you explain
these e-mail exchanges
541
00:21:17,910 --> 00:21:20,847
between you and Mike Tasker
discussing your pedicures?
542
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,650
What are you talking about?
543
00:21:23,683 --> 00:21:25,685
They're in evidence,
Mr. McKellen.
544
00:21:25,718 --> 00:21:27,487
Subpoenaed by the state.
545
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:28,488
See?
546
00:21:28,521 --> 00:21:30,423
You need an eye for detail
547
00:21:30,457 --> 00:21:31,924
to spot the significance.
548
00:21:31,958 --> 00:21:35,562
The prosecution didn't notice
that you used "pedicure"
549
00:21:35,595 --> 00:21:39,699
as code for PEDs, did they?
550
00:21:39,732 --> 00:21:41,434
Did you and Mike Tasker ever use
551
00:21:41,468 --> 00:21:44,437
performance-enhancing drugs,
also known as steroids?
552
00:21:44,471 --> 00:21:45,905
(page flips)
553
00:21:51,043 --> 00:21:52,512
Can I plead the Fifth,
Your Honor?
554
00:21:52,545 --> 00:21:54,581
You may, Mr. McKellen.
555
00:21:55,848 --> 00:21:58,918
Podcast made Rob look
like a Boy Scout.
556
00:21:58,951 --> 00:22:00,620
Should've known better.
557
00:22:00,653 --> 00:22:02,121
I like this attorney.
558
00:22:02,154 --> 00:22:03,356
He does his homework.
559
00:22:05,024 --> 00:22:07,460
Rob looks like my broker.
560
00:22:07,494 --> 00:22:08,995
I hate my broker.
561
00:22:10,597 --> 00:22:12,699
BENNY:
Are you aware that
562
00:22:12,732 --> 00:22:13,700
steroids can make
people aggressive?
563
00:22:13,733 --> 00:22:14,701
I've heard that.
564
00:22:14,734 --> 00:22:15,902
But I plead the Fifth.
565
00:22:15,935 --> 00:22:17,670
You have a gun collection?
566
00:22:17,704 --> 00:22:18,605
So what?
567
00:22:18,638 --> 00:22:21,040
Including three
nine-millimeter side arms?
568
00:22:21,073 --> 00:22:23,009
Have they been checked for
the ballistics in this case?
569
00:22:23,042 --> 00:22:24,677
I'm not on trial here.
She is.
570
00:22:24,711 --> 00:22:26,546
Yeah, because of what
you told Ellen Huff.
571
00:22:26,579 --> 00:22:28,047
Objection.
572
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:29,048
Withdrawn.
573
00:22:29,081 --> 00:22:30,717
Mr. McKellen,
574
00:22:30,750 --> 00:22:32,785
you were the last person
to see Mike alive that night,
575
00:22:32,819 --> 00:22:33,820
weren't you?
576
00:22:36,022 --> 00:22:39,158
Whatever.
577
00:22:39,191 --> 00:22:40,527
Whatever.
578
00:22:42,729 --> 00:22:44,063
Quite a job you did on Rob.
579
00:22:44,096 --> 00:22:45,532
He went up as a witness
580
00:22:45,565 --> 00:22:47,600
for the prosecution,
came down a suspect.
581
00:22:47,634 --> 00:22:49,569
At least according
to Ethel and Sydney.
582
00:22:49,602 --> 00:22:52,505
BULL: And yet Wade
is even more convinced
583
00:22:52,539 --> 00:22:54,006
that Reese killed Mike Tasker.
584
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,543
Oy, how is that even possible?
585
00:22:56,576 --> 00:22:58,578
It's called "backfire effect."
586
00:22:58,611 --> 00:23:00,747
When someone like Wade
locks into a story,
587
00:23:00,780 --> 00:23:02,915
even when they're shown
evidence to the contrary,
588
00:23:02,949 --> 00:23:04,684
they dig their heels in
even more.
589
00:23:04,717 --> 00:23:06,786
BENNY: So the only narrative
Wade trusts is Ellen's.
590
00:23:06,819 --> 00:23:08,154
MARISSA:
Fact that she's in jail
591
00:23:08,187 --> 00:23:11,090
only further confirms
her integrity.
592
00:23:11,123 --> 00:23:13,660
Then it's time
to break her out of jail.
593
00:23:13,693 --> 00:23:16,162
I'm gonna go play reporter.
594
00:23:16,195 --> 00:23:17,797
ANGELA: Danny, you know
how much trouble
595
00:23:17,830 --> 00:23:19,131
I could get in for this?
596
00:23:19,165 --> 00:23:22,569
You are a patriot and my
favorite SoulCycle partner.
597
00:23:22,602 --> 00:23:23,836
You're lucky I
can't stand Ellen.
598
00:23:23,870 --> 00:23:26,172
She thinks she's in a hotel.
599
00:23:26,205 --> 00:23:29,676
ELLEN: I had no idea jail would
be such a boon for the podcast.
600
00:23:29,709 --> 00:23:32,178
Another 100,000 downloads
in two days.
601
00:23:32,211 --> 00:23:34,647
I've had three publishers
approach me about a book.
602
00:23:34,681 --> 00:23:35,748
This is a dream.
603
00:23:35,782 --> 00:23:37,750
That's taken completely
out of context.
604
00:23:37,784 --> 00:23:39,686
How did you get that?
It's just.. hold on a second.
605
00:23:39,719 --> 00:23:40,920
I got to put this.
606
00:23:40,953 --> 00:23:42,021
This is new,
607
00:23:42,054 --> 00:23:43,623
so I got to... put this in here
608
00:23:43,656 --> 00:23:44,624
and then it goes to record,
609
00:23:44,657 --> 00:23:45,892
and I got to...
610
00:23:45,925 --> 00:23:47,660
press that. Okay.
611
00:23:47,694 --> 00:23:49,562
Thanks.
(lock buzzes)
612
00:23:49,596 --> 00:23:50,563
(latch clicks)
613
00:23:50,597 --> 00:23:52,198
Um, so why did you say that?
614
00:23:52,231 --> 00:23:53,900
I recognize you
from the press conference.
615
00:23:53,933 --> 00:23:55,034
Who do you work for?
616
00:23:55,067 --> 00:23:56,703
(sighs)
I work for a lot of people.
617
00:23:56,736 --> 00:23:59,171
This is a popular blog
that follows the trial,
618
00:23:59,205 --> 00:24:01,073
and, I got to say,
619
00:24:01,107 --> 00:24:03,242
the argument for the defense
has a lot of merit.
620
00:24:03,275 --> 00:24:06,045
Mm, everything I wrote was true.
621
00:24:06,078 --> 00:24:07,179
(laughs)
622
00:24:07,213 --> 00:24:08,881
Yeah, of course.
623
00:24:08,915 --> 00:24:09,782
But, I mean, it's pretty clear
624
00:24:09,816 --> 00:24:11,818
you left out a few
key details, right?
625
00:24:11,851 --> 00:24:14,754
Like, um... Gina and Mike
626
00:24:14,787 --> 00:24:17,089
and their turbulent
relationship.
627
00:24:17,123 --> 00:24:18,658
Kind of gives Gina motive.
628
00:24:18,691 --> 00:24:20,693
Well, she didn't buy a gun.
629
00:24:20,727 --> 00:24:22,061
But Rob had a gun collection
630
00:24:22,094 --> 00:24:23,129
and he was dealing steroids.
631
00:24:23,162 --> 00:24:26,165
All the top players
on their team did steroids.
632
00:24:26,198 --> 00:24:27,900
Really?
633
00:24:27,934 --> 00:24:28,968
When'd you find that out?
634
00:24:29,001 --> 00:24:30,703
And why didn't you report that?
635
00:24:30,737 --> 00:24:32,872
It's not relevant.
636
00:24:33,973 --> 00:24:36,275
So you just...
637
00:24:36,308 --> 00:24:39,111
you just decide which facts
are relevant,
638
00:24:39,145 --> 00:24:41,714
and then you deliberately
leave out other ones?
639
00:24:41,748 --> 00:24:43,783
No, you've got the story
completely wrong.
640
00:24:43,816 --> 00:24:44,817
No, I got my story.
641
00:24:44,851 --> 00:24:46,218
Good, all right, listen,
642
00:24:46,252 --> 00:24:47,520
my editors are all over me
643
00:24:47,554 --> 00:24:48,621
to file this story.
644
00:24:48,655 --> 00:24:50,557
Wait, what are you gonna print?
645
00:24:50,590 --> 00:24:53,693
That you only care about
your podcast ratings, and that
646
00:24:53,726 --> 00:24:55,261
you got to have
information suggesting
647
00:24:55,294 --> 00:24:57,029
Gina and Rob are suspects
648
00:24:57,063 --> 00:24:59,265
and that's why you
haven't released your files
649
00:24:59,298 --> 00:25:00,199
to the court.
650
00:25:00,232 --> 00:25:04,003
But I am releasing
my files to the court.
651
00:25:04,036 --> 00:25:05,905
When did that happen?
652
00:25:06,939 --> 00:25:08,808
Just now.
653
00:25:10,009 --> 00:25:11,310
(soft chuckle)
654
00:25:11,343 --> 00:25:13,613
(phone clacks on table)
Okay.
655
00:25:13,646 --> 00:25:16,749
Uh... so...
656
00:25:16,783 --> 00:25:18,718
you're trying to kill my story.
657
00:25:19,752 --> 00:25:22,021
(lock buzzes)
658
00:25:22,054 --> 00:25:24,290
(latch clicks)
659
00:25:24,323 --> 00:25:25,892
Okay.
660
00:25:25,925 --> 00:25:29,729
Here's the deal.
661
00:25:29,762 --> 00:25:30,730
No more press conferences
662
00:25:30,763 --> 00:25:33,566
and no more podcasts until
663
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:34,867
after the trial is over.
664
00:25:34,901 --> 00:25:36,969
Deal.
665
00:25:37,003 --> 00:25:40,840
And I get access to the files.
666
00:25:40,873 --> 00:25:43,075
Ugh.
667
00:25:44,276 --> 00:25:46,579
(snickers)
I'm a big fan, by the way.
668
00:25:46,613 --> 00:25:48,748
All right, thanks.
669
00:25:48,781 --> 00:25:50,817
(rock music playing)
670
00:25:50,850 --> 00:25:52,251
Oh!
671
00:25:52,284 --> 00:25:54,787
(chuckling):
That was terrible.
672
00:25:54,821 --> 00:25:55,588
(grunts)
673
00:25:55,622 --> 00:25:57,590
Darts are pure chance,
my friend.
674
00:25:57,624 --> 00:25:59,325
Uh-huh.
Here we go.
675
00:25:59,358 --> 00:26:01,594
Oh, Amanda,
what are you doing here?
676
00:26:06,165 --> 00:26:08,134
Oh, that's better.
Look at that.
677
00:26:08,167 --> 00:26:09,636
Magic.
678
00:26:09,669 --> 00:26:11,671
(chuckles)
679
00:26:13,372 --> 00:26:16,609
How far in advance did you know
Amanda was prosecuting the case?
680
00:26:17,644 --> 00:26:18,845
How long you been
missing Amanda?
681
00:26:18,878 --> 00:26:19,846
(dart hits board)
682
00:26:19,879 --> 00:26:20,847
What?
683
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:22,982
Come on, man.
I'm over her.
684
00:26:23,015 --> 00:26:26,919
You haven't seriously dated
anyone since you guys broke up.
685
00:26:28,955 --> 00:26:31,691
It's because I haven't
found anyone I liked.
686
00:26:31,724 --> 00:26:32,925
I'm picky.
687
00:26:32,959 --> 00:26:34,961
Ha.
Like other dart players I know.
688
00:26:37,797 --> 00:26:39,666
Ah.
689
00:26:39,699 --> 00:26:41,233
Check you out.
690
00:26:41,267 --> 00:26:43,736
Stage managing
my life with Amanda,
691
00:26:43,770 --> 00:26:45,171
pouring your life into Reese's.
692
00:26:45,204 --> 00:26:48,040
You ever gonna get serious
with a woman again?
693
00:26:48,074 --> 00:26:50,076
(dart hits board)
Whatever.
694
00:26:50,109 --> 00:26:52,812
(chuckles)
REPORTER: And now we have
Ellen Huff live just moments...
695
00:26:52,845 --> 00:26:55,181
Oh, there's Ellen.
Right.
696
00:26:55,214 --> 00:26:57,083
No, really.
ELLEN: I have decided
to share research
697
00:26:57,116 --> 00:26:58,785
from my investigation
with the courts,
698
00:26:58,818 --> 00:26:59,719
so long as they
protect my sources.
699
00:26:59,752 --> 00:27:02,088
And I promise you
the truth is in there.
700
00:27:02,121 --> 00:27:04,290
I'll keep you posted. Excuse me.
(reporters clamoring)
701
00:27:05,324 --> 00:27:07,293
I told her no press conferences.
702
00:27:07,326 --> 00:27:09,328
No, technically it's not.
703
00:27:09,361 --> 00:27:11,898
They were waiting for
her at her apartment.
704
00:27:11,931 --> 00:27:14,867
(sighs)
Are you her lawyer now?
705
00:27:14,901 --> 00:27:17,804
All right, let's finish
these drinks and go say hi.
706
00:27:20,707 --> 00:27:24,276
(sirens wailing)
707
00:27:26,979 --> 00:27:28,815
BULL: Hey, what's going on here?
OFFICER: Hold up there.
708
00:27:28,848 --> 00:27:29,782
DETECTIVE: It's all right,
Officer, I know him.
709
00:27:29,816 --> 00:27:32,018
Let 'em through.
BULL:
Thanks, Detective.
710
00:27:34,353 --> 00:27:36,989
What happened?
711
00:27:37,023 --> 00:27:39,125
Looks like gravity.
712
00:27:39,158 --> 00:27:40,192
AMANDA:
Forced entry,
713
00:27:40,226 --> 00:27:41,460
signs of a struggle.
714
00:27:41,493 --> 00:27:43,195
Ellen was pushed.
715
00:27:43,229 --> 00:27:46,032
We need your client at
the precinct for questioning.
716
00:28:01,047 --> 00:28:03,049
(foghorn blows in distance)
717
00:28:05,918 --> 00:28:07,854
(panting)
Hey.
718
00:28:07,887 --> 00:28:09,756
You're fast.
How'd you find me?
719
00:28:09,789 --> 00:28:11,057
Figured you
needed to go for a run
720
00:28:11,090 --> 00:28:13,726
after you heard
about Ellen's death.
721
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,295
Are the police looking for me?
722
00:28:16,328 --> 00:28:20,032
You have about an hour.
723
00:28:20,066 --> 00:28:22,201
(crying):
I'm sorry, I...
724
00:28:22,234 --> 00:28:24,303
I had to get out
of my apartment.
725
00:28:24,336 --> 00:28:26,739
I, uh... I couldn't breathe.
726
00:28:26,773 --> 00:28:28,975
(breathing heavily):
I... I...
727
00:28:29,008 --> 00:28:29,976
saw my photo on the news.
728
00:28:30,009 --> 00:28:32,111
Hey, hey, look at me.
Look at me for a second.
729
00:28:32,144 --> 00:28:33,479
Come here, come here.
No.
730
00:28:33,512 --> 00:28:35,982
Come here, it's okay.
Let's count, all right?
731
00:28:36,015 --> 00:28:37,049
No.
Remember?
732
00:28:37,083 --> 00:28:38,384
Say it.
733
00:28:38,417 --> 00:28:41,053
Seven, eight, nine, 11, one.
734
00:28:41,087 --> 00:28:43,355
Do it, look at me, look at me.
735
00:28:43,389 --> 00:28:45,124
Seven, eight, nine, 11, one.
736
00:28:45,157 --> 00:28:46,258
(out of breath):
Seven.
737
00:28:46,292 --> 00:28:47,927
Eight. Nine.
738
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,030
(breathing steadies)
739
00:28:51,063 --> 00:28:52,999
You're okay?
740
00:28:53,032 --> 00:28:55,868
I told you.
741
00:28:55,902 --> 00:28:59,005
(inhales sharply)
742
00:28:59,038 --> 00:29:01,140
You're okay.
743
00:29:04,543 --> 00:29:08,214
You've been running since
your senior year of college.
744
00:29:08,247 --> 00:29:10,783
And I have some news for you.
745
00:29:10,817 --> 00:29:13,219
What happened to you
isn't gonna change.
746
00:29:13,252 --> 00:29:15,287
But you can't let it define you.
747
00:29:15,321 --> 00:29:16,789
You don't know what it's like!
748
00:29:16,823 --> 00:29:20,359
No, I don't know exactly
what it's like for you.
749
00:29:20,392 --> 00:29:22,194
How could I?
750
00:29:22,228 --> 00:29:25,097
But I do know what it's like
to be trapped.
751
00:29:25,131 --> 00:29:28,801
And helpless and afraid
752
00:29:28,835 --> 00:29:32,805
and too young to be able
to do anything about it.
753
00:29:35,842 --> 00:29:37,409
Is that why you do what you do?
754
00:29:37,443 --> 00:29:40,446
Why you're out here?
755
00:29:40,479 --> 00:29:44,383
In the middle of the night?
756
00:29:44,416 --> 00:29:48,020
Is that why you
decided to help me?
757
00:29:52,058 --> 00:29:54,493
Well...
758
00:29:56,362 --> 00:29:58,297
Understanding...
(sniffs)
759
00:29:58,330 --> 00:30:01,333
why people do
the things they do...
760
00:30:03,535 --> 00:30:06,472
...is really just
understanding yourself.
761
00:30:06,505 --> 00:30:08,040
And once you do that,
762
00:30:08,074 --> 00:30:09,942
you don't have to run anymore.
763
00:30:09,976 --> 00:30:11,577
Not from panic,
764
00:30:11,610 --> 00:30:13,812
not from whatever happened.
765
00:30:14,881 --> 00:30:16,215
We're gonna win.
766
00:30:16,248 --> 00:30:19,118
(sniffles)
Okay.
767
00:30:21,988 --> 00:30:23,189
BULL:
You see, this is
768
00:30:23,222 --> 00:30:25,124
time-stamped video
footage showing Reese
769
00:30:25,157 --> 00:30:26,258
entering her own
apartment building
770
00:30:26,292 --> 00:30:28,060
at the time of Ellen's death.
771
00:30:29,295 --> 00:30:31,130
What's your e-mail?
I'll send it to you.
772
00:30:31,163 --> 00:30:33,532
She could've left another way.
Yeah. Maybe she has
773
00:30:33,565 --> 00:30:35,334
a jetpack.
774
00:30:35,367 --> 00:30:37,336
BENNY:
Detective cleared my client.
775
00:30:37,369 --> 00:30:39,138
AMANDA:
Don't go far.
776
00:30:39,171 --> 00:30:40,372
We have court in the morning.
777
00:30:40,406 --> 00:30:44,243
Amanda, clearly, the real killer
saw Ellen's press conference
778
00:30:44,276 --> 00:30:46,879
and got to her before she could
reveal his identity.
779
00:30:46,913 --> 00:30:50,216
You are free to bring
that theory up at trial.
780
00:30:50,249 --> 00:30:54,353
I know what Benny would do if he
was still in the D.A.'s office.
781
00:30:54,386 --> 00:30:57,623
He would drop the case
and go after the real killer.
782
00:30:59,325 --> 00:31:02,561
We still have a subpoena
for Ellen's files.
783
00:31:02,594 --> 00:31:04,330
They're now in evidence
for Ellen's murder.
784
00:31:04,363 --> 00:31:07,099
In which my client
was called in for questioning.
785
00:31:07,133 --> 00:31:08,935
You're not trying to keep
the files from me, are you?
786
00:31:08,968 --> 00:31:11,637
Come on, Amanda. I know
you wouldn't willfully engage
787
00:31:11,670 --> 00:31:13,405
in prosecutorial misconduct.
788
00:31:13,439 --> 00:31:15,241
Benny, have at it.
789
00:31:15,274 --> 00:31:17,143
You can take this by
evidence on your way out.
790
00:31:17,176 --> 00:31:18,544
But you can't keep assuming
791
00:31:18,577 --> 00:31:20,279
all your clients are innocent.
792
00:31:20,312 --> 00:31:23,482
All?
793
00:31:23,515 --> 00:31:28,287
I had a 93% conviction rate when
I worked for the D.A.'s office.
794
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,456
One person,
one innocent person...
795
00:31:30,489 --> 00:31:32,191
Forget it.
796
00:31:32,224 --> 00:31:34,193
There's a reason why I quit.
797
00:31:34,226 --> 00:31:35,127
You didn't quit. You were fired.
798
00:31:36,495 --> 00:31:39,365
I quit when I realized
I worked for a place
799
00:31:39,398 --> 00:31:41,600
that cared more about getting
convictions than having them.
800
00:31:43,635 --> 00:31:45,504
I'll see you in court.
801
00:31:47,039 --> 00:31:48,007
Cable.
802
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,977
Have you convinced
the public
803
00:31:51,010 --> 00:31:53,045
that Reese was not involved
in Ellen's death yet?
804
00:31:53,079 --> 00:31:55,047
Making progress.
805
00:31:55,081 --> 00:31:57,249
A couple of news outlets
picked up my story.
806
00:31:57,283 --> 00:31:59,151
BENNY:
What story?
807
00:31:59,185 --> 00:32:00,386
"Sources report Reese
808
00:32:00,419 --> 00:32:02,121
"has been cleared and
has an ironclad alibi.
809
00:32:02,154 --> 00:32:03,389
"Therefore,
the real killer
810
00:32:03,422 --> 00:32:06,025
"may have killed Ellen
before she could reveal
811
00:32:06,058 --> 00:32:07,960
"his or her true identity.
812
00:32:07,994 --> 00:32:11,097
The police are investigating
other suspects at this time."
813
00:32:11,130 --> 00:32:13,532
Throw suspicion on someone
other than Reese.
814
00:32:13,565 --> 00:32:15,301
Genius.
815
00:32:15,334 --> 00:32:17,136
And it might
even be true.
816
00:32:17,169 --> 00:32:19,271
BENNY:
Good use of media
to control the story.
817
00:32:19,305 --> 00:32:20,406
And here's
the kicker:
818
00:32:20,439 --> 00:32:22,474
two naughty, naughty jurors
819
00:32:22,508 --> 00:32:23,609
clicked through to our blog
820
00:32:23,642 --> 00:32:25,311
and read the article.
821
00:32:25,344 --> 00:32:26,445
Hmm. It's nice work.
822
00:32:26,478 --> 00:32:27,513
That'll filter down
823
00:32:27,546 --> 00:32:29,448
to the rest of
the jury by dinner.
824
00:32:29,481 --> 00:32:31,183
You know, if hacking
doesn't pan out for you,
825
00:32:31,217 --> 00:32:33,385
I think you have a career
as a shoddy journalist.
826
00:32:33,419 --> 00:32:35,287
Thank you.
In-in the best way.
827
00:32:35,321 --> 00:32:37,356
That means a lot.
828
00:32:37,389 --> 00:32:40,592
Danny, you find anything
in Ellen's file?
829
00:32:40,626 --> 00:32:41,693
No, not yet.
830
00:32:41,727 --> 00:32:43,595
This woman recorded hundreds
of hours of interviews.
831
00:32:43,629 --> 00:32:45,464
If we don't get
anything from Ellen,
832
00:32:45,497 --> 00:32:47,433
you think Wade will cave?
BULL: No.
833
00:32:47,466 --> 00:32:48,667
We'll get a hung jury.
834
00:32:48,700 --> 00:32:51,237
Well, that may not
be a bad thing.
835
00:32:51,270 --> 00:32:53,472
The D.A.'s not gonna
want to retry this case.
836
00:32:53,505 --> 00:32:55,541
Yeah, I understand, Benny,
837
00:32:55,574 --> 00:32:57,243
but anything short
of not guilty,
838
00:32:57,276 --> 00:32:59,378
and Reese has to live the rest
of her life knowing the cops
839
00:32:59,411 --> 00:33:02,348
could come knocking on the door
and arrest her for murder.
840
00:33:02,381 --> 00:33:04,583
But it's not like we're gonna
put Reese on the stand.
841
00:33:04,616 --> 00:33:05,784
Are we?
842
00:33:05,817 --> 00:33:07,219
Without Ellen,
843
00:33:07,253 --> 00:33:09,021
Reese is
the best witness we have
844
00:33:09,055 --> 00:33:11,057
and the only one
who might influence Wade.
845
00:33:11,090 --> 00:33:12,558
Not to mention...
846
00:33:12,591 --> 00:33:14,560
it's a story Reese
needs to tell.
847
00:33:14,593 --> 00:33:16,695
It's one thing for Reese
to have a panic attack
848
00:33:16,728 --> 00:33:18,564
while sitting at a table
849
00:33:18,597 --> 00:33:20,199
where she can
count to herself.
850
00:33:20,232 --> 00:33:21,233
On the witness stand...
851
00:33:21,267 --> 00:33:23,302
Amanda will destroy her.
852
00:33:23,335 --> 00:33:26,038
Make her look guilty
when she freezes.
853
00:33:26,072 --> 00:33:27,539
That's what I'm counting on.
854
00:33:29,441 --> 00:33:31,810
If I say the wrong
thing up there,
855
00:33:31,843 --> 00:33:34,280
they'll put me away
for the rest of my life.
856
00:33:34,313 --> 00:33:35,581
That's why we're here.
857
00:33:35,614 --> 00:33:37,449
To practice.
858
00:33:39,718 --> 00:33:42,521
Now, I'm gonna play the
role of the prosecution.
859
00:33:42,554 --> 00:33:46,692
Ms. Burton, two weeks
before Mike Tasker's murder...
860
00:33:46,725 --> 00:33:49,528
You bought a nine-millimeter
handgun, didn't you?
861
00:33:49,561 --> 00:33:50,696
Yes or no?
862
00:33:50,729 --> 00:33:53,132
Amanda's gonna try and limit
your answers to yes or no,
863
00:33:53,165 --> 00:33:55,234
but you have the right
to explain yourself.
864
00:33:55,267 --> 00:33:58,604
Yes, because I was frightened
for my life.
865
00:33:58,637 --> 00:34:01,473
She's very good at restating
what you said,
866
00:34:01,507 --> 00:34:02,608
but in her words and not yours.
867
00:34:02,641 --> 00:34:04,243
Correct her.
AMANDA: Frightened?
868
00:34:04,276 --> 00:34:06,312
And like everyone,
you had a choice.
869
00:34:06,345 --> 00:34:07,546
Fight or flight.
870
00:34:07,579 --> 00:34:09,548
You chose fight.
Threatened him.
871
00:34:09,581 --> 00:34:11,517
No, I threatened him
to stay away from me.
872
00:34:11,550 --> 00:34:13,852
You threatened to kill him
with your gun.
873
00:34:13,885 --> 00:34:14,853
BENNY:
Objection!
874
00:34:14,886 --> 00:34:16,522
Badgering the witness.
875
00:34:16,555 --> 00:34:19,225
If you're not done
with an answer, you say...
876
00:34:19,258 --> 00:34:21,127
I wasn't finished.
Amanda knows
877
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:22,094
you have panic attacks.
878
00:34:22,128 --> 00:34:24,196
She's gonna try
and elicit one on the stand.
879
00:34:24,230 --> 00:34:26,765
And when she does, you...
880
00:34:26,798 --> 00:34:28,667
will be ready.
881
00:34:28,700 --> 00:34:30,202
AMANDA:
Mike sexually
assaulted you.
Yes.
882
00:34:30,236 --> 00:34:31,837
You reported it
to the university.
883
00:34:31,870 --> 00:34:32,838
Yes.
884
00:34:32,871 --> 00:34:34,173
And they dragged
their heels.
Yes.
885
00:34:34,206 --> 00:34:35,141
But that was
something that...
886
00:34:35,174 --> 00:34:36,808
And you were furious about that,
weren't you?
887
00:34:36,842 --> 00:34:38,810
Of course I was.
You kept that rage inside.
888
00:34:38,844 --> 00:34:40,512
I didn't say "rage."
AMANDA:
The entire campus
889
00:34:40,546 --> 00:34:42,148
turned up for Mike Tasker's
memorial service.
890
00:34:42,181 --> 00:34:43,815
REESE:
A lot of people
went, yes,
891
00:34:43,849 --> 00:34:45,484
who weren't raped by him.
892
00:34:45,517 --> 00:34:46,618
But you were glad Mike Tasker
was dead.
893
00:34:46,652 --> 00:34:48,487
You can admit that.
894
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,856
Can't you?
895
00:34:53,592 --> 00:34:55,261
Ms. Burton.
896
00:34:55,294 --> 00:34:57,763
Why does this topic
make you so uncomfortable?
897
00:34:57,796 --> 00:34:59,131
(breathing heavily)
898
00:34:59,165 --> 00:35:00,499
Ms. Burton,
do you need a break?
899
00:35:00,532 --> 00:35:02,334
BULL:
Before a panic attack,
900
00:35:02,368 --> 00:35:03,869
people have their own
901
00:35:03,902 --> 00:35:05,537
warning signs.
902
00:35:05,571 --> 00:35:08,640
The room starts
to buzz, yeah?
903
00:35:08,674 --> 00:35:13,745
That can be your cue
to melt down or to start coping.
904
00:35:13,779 --> 00:35:15,747
What if I pass out?
905
00:35:15,781 --> 00:35:17,516
You'll wake up.
What if I throw up?
906
00:35:17,549 --> 00:35:18,317
We'll get you a bucket.
907
00:35:18,350 --> 00:35:20,152
You have an answer
for everything.
908
00:35:20,186 --> 00:35:22,388
So do you.
909
00:35:22,421 --> 00:35:25,224
For every question
Amanda's going to ask,
910
00:35:25,257 --> 00:35:27,493
you have the truth.
911
00:35:27,526 --> 00:35:29,928
And no panic attack
or prosecutor
912
00:35:29,961 --> 00:35:31,297
can take that from you.
913
00:35:31,330 --> 00:35:32,764
RAND:
The court will recess.
914
00:35:32,798 --> 00:35:35,234
(gavel pounds)
No, I don't need a break,
Your Honor.
915
00:35:35,267 --> 00:35:36,702
No further questions,
Your Honor.
916
00:35:36,735 --> 00:35:37,569
But she asked
a question
917
00:35:37,603 --> 00:35:39,505
implying that
I'm hiding something.
918
00:35:39,538 --> 00:35:41,340
I have the right to answer.
919
00:35:41,373 --> 00:35:43,342
Go ahead, you may answer.
920
00:35:43,375 --> 00:35:44,376
(sniffles)
921
00:35:46,478 --> 00:35:48,480
(Reese breathes heavily)
922
00:35:49,648 --> 00:35:52,551
(sniffles)
923
00:35:52,584 --> 00:35:54,353
(exhales)
924
00:35:59,258 --> 00:36:00,592
You're right.
925
00:36:00,626 --> 00:36:02,628
I couldn't stand Mike,
926
00:36:02,661 --> 00:36:04,563
but I was the last person
who wanted him dead.
927
00:36:04,596 --> 00:36:07,199
I wanted him alive
928
00:36:07,233 --> 00:36:09,601
because I wanted him to pay
for what he did.
929
00:36:09,635 --> 00:36:11,537
I wanted him
to go to prison.
930
00:36:11,570 --> 00:36:14,473
I wanted him to feel
what I felt
931
00:36:14,506 --> 00:36:17,943
and I wanted to ask him,
"How powerful do you feel now?"
932
00:36:19,978 --> 00:36:22,348
And I'll never get that chance.
933
00:36:22,381 --> 00:36:25,451
He is the one at peace, not me.
934
00:36:27,986 --> 00:36:30,956
Yes, I get these
panic attacks
935
00:36:30,989 --> 00:36:33,959
because I was raped and bullied,
936
00:36:33,992 --> 00:36:36,862
which is exactly how
you're making me feel.
937
00:36:39,431 --> 00:36:41,833
I couldn't stand up
for myself then,
938
00:36:41,867 --> 00:36:44,970
but I am stronger now.
939
00:36:45,003 --> 00:36:48,340
So, ask your questions,
Ms. Prosecutor.
940
00:36:48,374 --> 00:36:51,310
I have nowhere else to be.
941
00:36:51,343 --> 00:36:54,280
I did not kill Mike Tasker.
942
00:37:04,856 --> 00:37:06,992
Yeah, she gets panic attacks.
943
00:37:07,025 --> 00:37:10,529
I get it, but the prosecution's
built a bulletproof case.
944
00:37:10,562 --> 00:37:12,331
No way I can acquit,
945
00:37:12,364 --> 00:37:14,032
especially since Ellen's dead.
946
00:37:14,065 --> 00:37:16,001
That podcaster lady had it all.
947
00:37:16,034 --> 00:37:19,538
All that's left is
my closing argument.
948
00:37:19,571 --> 00:37:21,773
And we've got two hours.
949
00:37:21,807 --> 00:37:23,975
Ellen's got to have something
in her audio files.
950
00:37:24,009 --> 00:37:25,010
Danny.
951
00:37:27,513 --> 00:37:29,281
This looks promising.
952
00:37:31,417 --> 00:37:33,519
Ellen's raw,
unedited audio.
953
00:37:33,552 --> 00:37:35,287
You're gonna want
to hear that.
954
00:37:41,026 --> 00:37:44,363
Looks like we have
reasonable doubt.
955
00:37:50,068 --> 00:37:51,603
We all know what happened
to Mike Tasker.
956
00:37:51,637 --> 00:37:52,638
Right?
957
00:37:54,506 --> 00:37:55,941
ELLEN:
Reese was obsessed.
958
00:37:55,974 --> 00:37:57,008
Stalked him around campus.
959
00:37:57,042 --> 00:37:59,044
When he turned down her
advances, she bought a gun
960
00:37:59,077 --> 00:38:00,712
and threatened him.
961
00:38:00,746 --> 00:38:02,814
Social media.
962
00:38:02,848 --> 00:38:05,917
Twitter, blogs, Facebook.
963
00:38:05,951 --> 00:38:07,085
(laughing):
It can be
964
00:38:07,118 --> 00:38:12,558
a terrific tool for staying
in touch, for connecting.
965
00:38:12,591 --> 00:38:14,860
For cat videos.
966
00:38:14,893 --> 00:38:16,562
But, you see,
there's a difference
967
00:38:16,595 --> 00:38:18,764
between entertainment
and the truth.
968
00:38:18,797 --> 00:38:22,434
And this podcast is a work
of pure fiction.
969
00:38:22,468 --> 00:38:24,470
How do I know?
970
00:38:24,503 --> 00:38:26,905
ELLEN:
Once police matched
Reese's blonde hair--
971
00:38:26,938 --> 00:38:28,640
shoot, brown.
I need to start over.
972
00:38:28,674 --> 00:38:30,075
ENGINEER:
I thought you were going
to bring up Mike
973
00:38:30,108 --> 00:38:31,477
and the team's steroid use.
974
00:38:31,510 --> 00:38:34,112
ELLEN:
No, it gets too
complicated here.
975
00:38:34,145 --> 00:38:35,514
I'm not gonna get into it.
976
00:38:35,547 --> 00:38:36,515
ENGINEER:
Very good. Take two.
977
00:38:36,548 --> 00:38:37,616
That's an example
978
00:38:37,649 --> 00:38:39,685
of how Ellen chose the facts...
979
00:38:39,718 --> 00:38:41,119
to make a compelling case.
980
00:38:41,152 --> 00:38:45,691
Ellen thought it was
"too complicated"
981
00:38:45,724 --> 00:38:47,759
to introduce Mike's steroid use,
982
00:38:47,793 --> 00:38:50,729
Gina's temper
and assault charge,
983
00:38:50,762 --> 00:38:52,664
even Reese's panic attacks.
984
00:38:52,698 --> 00:38:56,735
I mean, Ellen's limited version
of the story may have made
985
00:38:56,768 --> 00:38:59,738
for compelling entertainment,
but that doesn't make it true.
986
00:39:02,541 --> 00:39:07,112
And it cost Reese her job,
her reputation,
987
00:39:07,145 --> 00:39:09,415
and it publicized
to the whole world
988
00:39:09,448 --> 00:39:11,617
that she was raped.
989
00:39:11,650 --> 00:39:13,585
And you know what?
It landed her right here...
990
00:39:13,619 --> 00:39:15,687
on trial for murder.
991
00:39:20,626 --> 00:39:24,129
Please don't make
the same mistake Ellen did.
992
00:39:25,797 --> 00:39:27,966
She's not a murderer.
993
00:39:27,999 --> 00:39:30,802
She's a survivor.
994
00:39:30,836 --> 00:39:32,871
That's the true story.
995
00:39:41,947 --> 00:39:45,717
On the charge of murder
in the first degree,
996
00:39:45,751 --> 00:39:47,519
how do you find?
997
00:39:50,689 --> 00:39:54,926
WOMAN:
We, the jury, find
the defendant, Reese Burton...
998
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,563
not guilty.
999
00:39:58,997 --> 00:40:00,732
RAND:
Court adjourned.
1000
00:40:00,766 --> 00:40:02,934
(gavel strikes)
1001
00:40:02,968 --> 00:40:05,671
(laughs)
1002
00:40:05,704 --> 00:40:06,705
Will you look at that?
1003
00:40:06,738 --> 00:40:08,674
I... I see the coach
and his team
1004
00:40:08,707 --> 00:40:10,175
aren't here
for the verdict.
1005
00:40:10,208 --> 00:40:13,779
Maybe you should look
into that doping scandal.
1006
00:40:24,856 --> 00:40:26,157
(cork pops)
1007
00:40:26,191 --> 00:40:27,793
CABLE:
Enemy alert.
1008
00:40:27,826 --> 00:40:29,094
Say the word,
1009
00:40:29,127 --> 00:40:30,862
I hit the burn button.
We lose it all.
1010
00:40:30,896 --> 00:40:32,631
It's all right, Cable.
She called ahead.
1011
00:40:32,664 --> 00:40:35,033
We picked up Rob
for questioning.
1012
00:40:35,066 --> 00:40:36,602
He crumbled pretty quickly.
1013
00:40:36,635 --> 00:40:38,737
Turns out Mike was
about to blow the whistle
1014
00:40:38,770 --> 00:40:40,739
on the team
using steroids,
1015
00:40:40,772 --> 00:40:43,509
so the coach had motive
to kill Mike and Ellen.
1016
00:40:43,542 --> 00:40:45,711
You were right.
1017
00:40:45,744 --> 00:40:47,713
Mm.
1018
00:40:47,746 --> 00:40:49,881
You came all the way here
to tell us this?
1019
00:40:50,916 --> 00:40:53,652
Actually, I came to talk to you.
1020
00:40:53,685 --> 00:40:56,955
Mm, I haven't had
a sip of this yet.
1021
00:40:56,988 --> 00:40:59,124
I'm gonna go
play guitar.
1022
00:41:01,727 --> 00:41:03,729
I was impressed.
1023
00:41:03,762 --> 00:41:07,866
That passion... that's what
I first remember about you
1024
00:41:07,899 --> 00:41:08,934
when you started
at the D.A.'s office.
1025
00:41:08,967 --> 00:41:09,968
(lightly chuckles)
1026
00:41:10,001 --> 00:41:11,537
Look, Amanda,
you don't have to.
1027
00:41:11,570 --> 00:41:14,105
No, I do.
1028
00:41:14,139 --> 00:41:17,242
That's why I was so upset
after your press conference.
1029
00:41:17,275 --> 00:41:19,678
Well... you know how I felt.
1030
00:41:22,781 --> 00:41:24,783
I just...
1031
00:41:24,816 --> 00:41:27,719
felt like you weren't taking me
into account.
1032
00:41:27,753 --> 00:41:28,820
I was still working there.
1033
00:41:28,854 --> 00:41:30,722
Yeah.
1034
00:41:30,756 --> 00:41:32,758
I could've handled
that differently.
1035
00:41:32,791 --> 00:41:34,793
Yeah.
1036
00:41:36,862 --> 00:41:39,765
But I do get why you did it.
1037
00:41:39,798 --> 00:41:41,667
Thanks.
1038
00:41:41,700 --> 00:41:42,734
That means a lot.
1039
00:41:42,768 --> 00:41:46,772
Just to be clear,
don't ever come up against me
1040
00:41:46,805 --> 00:41:47,739
with a guilty client.
1041
00:41:47,773 --> 00:41:51,176
Well... don't ever prosecute
an innocent one.
1042
00:41:51,209 --> 00:41:56,782
* From the most beautiful girl
in the world... *
1043
00:41:56,815 --> 00:41:59,685
If she said she'd
take you back...
1044
00:41:59,718 --> 00:42:00,752
would you do it?
1045
00:42:00,786 --> 00:42:02,253
In a heartbeat.
1046
00:42:05,156 --> 00:42:09,628
* I don't mind...
1047
00:42:09,661 --> 00:42:10,662
Thank you.
1048
00:42:10,696 --> 00:42:12,230
Mm-hmm.
Hey.
1049
00:42:12,263 --> 00:42:13,231
Hi.
1050
00:42:13,264 --> 00:42:14,332
Um, if your social calendar
1051
00:42:14,365 --> 00:42:15,567
has cleared up...
1052
00:42:15,601 --> 00:42:17,969
What?
1053
00:42:18,003 --> 00:42:19,638
Tin Lizard?
(chuckles)
1054
00:42:19,671 --> 00:42:22,007
No pressure, but a bunch
of us are going.
1055
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:23,041
Yeah.
1056
00:42:23,074 --> 00:42:24,576
(chuckles)
1057
00:42:24,610 --> 00:42:25,744
Thank you.
1058
00:42:27,846 --> 00:42:30,215
Curious how you managed
to turn this case
1059
00:42:30,248 --> 00:42:31,917
into an opportunity
1060
00:42:31,950 --> 00:42:35,120
for Benny to reconcile
with Amanda.
1061
00:42:36,888 --> 00:42:38,189
A happy coincidence.
1062
00:42:38,223 --> 00:42:39,891
(chuckles)
1063
00:42:39,925 --> 00:42:40,926
You don't believe
in coincidences.
1064
00:42:40,959 --> 00:42:41,860
Well...
1065
00:42:41,893 --> 00:42:45,631
a happy result
of masterful manipulation
1066
00:42:45,664 --> 00:42:47,132
seems a bit over the top,
don't you think?
