All language subtitles for Redfern Now s02ex1 Promise Me 2015

I'm walking like a lonely child, never

knowing what's waiting for me. Feeling
lost, I wonder far. Reach

out and touch me, take my hand.

See you later.

See you, my girl.

Excuse me, excuse me.

There's a guy in the red jacket back
there.

Yeah, do you see?

He's been following you.

I'll just walk you through here. No, I'm
fine. I'll walk you through here. I'm

fine. No!

Shut the fuck up! Shut the fucking up!

Someone had a good night.

How was it?

And, bub, how was your night?

Fine. Good.

Six -all, baby.

Six -all, kick the cub.

Go in it.

You all right, Robbie?

Even a couple?

Bub.

You've been in a fight.

Jesus, Robin.

Told you not to go up there.

Go to your mate's place, the one with
the pubs around here.

What do you want to go up the crosswalk?
The place is full of dickheads. Did I

start preaching?

You don't know what you're talking
about. You have no idea.

I only drink, Chad.

Are you drunk?

I'm not drunk.

I only have two drinks.

No, I wasn't in a fight.

Well, excuse me, I'm just...

Looking at what I'm saying, not a pretty
sight.

You want to know what happened?

You really want to know what happened?

I tried to get her to change.

I know I'm going to think she's got my
clothes.

She's been wearing those for days.

Robin, we've got to talk.

Did you eat all her dinner?

Yeah.

Who was it, Robin?

Did you know him?

Don't. I don't know who he was, okay?

No one can know about this, Dad.

Robin? Darling?

Robin?

Please, you can't have a shower, baby.

Robin?

Robin? It's evidence.

The evidence is on your body.

Darling, please do not have a shower.

Darling, you cannot step in that gala,
please.

Come on. Open up, darling.

Robin.

What's wrong? I need to help with Robin.

Jesus Christ.

What are you doing here? Your father
asked me.

Hey, babe.

We need the clothes, bub. You're not
having them. We need the clothes for

evidence, baby.

I'm giving nothing to nobody.

You need to report this, bub.

No, I don't.

I don't have to do anything. Yes, you
do. You need to report it. I know it's

going to be hard.

But if you don't, he's going to get away
with it.

What's going to the cops going to do?

Huh?

I was raped.

They can't fix that.

And you know what else?

You're not going to report it.

Promise me.

Can't tell anyone ever.

Baby, come here.

Come here.

Move. I can't go to the club, and I'm
not giving up my clothes. Okay, okay.

Look, I just don't want you to get burnt
if you do this.

That's it.

Everything's gone.

Take it.

Take it.

Yeah, it's Aaron.

Yeah. Yeah, I'm okay.

Actually, I'm not feeling too well at
all.

Something's going around.

Yeah. So, I'm not going to make it
today.

Yeah, just not feeling quite right.

Yeah.

I'll see you tomorrow, Sergeant.

Thank you.

I will.

Yeah, bye.

Dad, please.

It's better work.

Robin. I don't need you hanging around
here.

I'm all right.

I'm going to forget about it and sell
you.

Are you going to report it? No, Dad, I'm
not.

I'm not here.

I don't care who it is, I'm not here.

Where's Robin?

I... I'm so sorry, Robin.

You told her.

What? You told Celine about Robin.

Yeah, I did.

You promised, Ali.

You promised me and you promised Robin.
Yeah, I did. I promised.

But what did you want me to do?

Huh? You told me.

Let my daughter roam around out there
when there's a rapist on the loose?

I don't think so.

You promised, Ali.

How can I help you?

Um, I just want to get checked up for
something, that's all.

What sort of something?

You know.

SEIs?

Yeah.

Are you currently in a relationship?

No.

Did you practice safe sex?

No. You do know what safe sex is?

Yeah, I do.

Okay, I'm going to need a blood test, a
urine test, and I'm going to take a

swab. The bathroom is down the hall on
the right.

Is there something like a pill that I
can take in case I'm pregnant?

Yes. Yes, there is.

It's called ECP.

Some people call it the morning after
pill. It's available at the chemist over

at the counter. But the best way to
avoid this situation is to take

responsibility and use contraception.

Hey. Hey.

How's your girl?

You know.

Yeah, right.

Do you want to talk to someone?

I don't know.

Just leaving things be at the moment.

You can't let things be for too long,
Aaron. Yeah, I know.

If she wants to talk.

Yeah, thanks. Look, I've got to get to
work, so I'll see you when I can. Hey,

don't do this. Do what?

What do you want me to do?

I'm not sorry that I told Celine.

Yeah, you had to do what you had to do.
Yeah, I did.

Look, if you need anything, you just ask
me, okay?

Yeah, look, I've got to go.

You know what I'd like to do one night?

Is go into the city after the cross with
a bunch of crews.

No uniform, just plain clothes.

Hail down some cabs.

See if they'd stop.

Bet they wouldn't.

Then I'd take down their number plates.

Book them.

Report to the police.

Hey, David.

All right.

Here you go. Thank you.

Hey, where's the rest of it? Oh, yeah,
sorry. That's all I've got on me right

now. Sorry.

Sorry you're not going to help me.

Five nights before 100, that's what you
said.

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

Don't stress. You'll get your money.
I'll put it in your account tonight.

have it in the morning. I don't want it
in my account. I want it in my hand.

That was a deal. Cash in hand.

Look, Lorraine, what do you want me to
do? Go to an ATM especially for you?

Yeah, do that. Well, I'm not going to.

Okay, I've got to pack up and get to
another job. I'm already two hours late.

You'll get your money. I'm already late,
too. I've got kids to get home to.

Lorraine, I'm sorry.

It's going to be tomorrow.

Is there a white cat under there?

No,

sorry. Can you come over here? You scare
him over this side.

Scare him out.

We'll catch him.

Shut your fucking mouth, understand?

across the road from Northern Road.

Jane. It's Mum.

No, I'm just calling on work phone.

Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no. I'm okay.

I need you to do something for me.

Can you look after the boys?

Give them a feed and a bath?

Just... heat up the spaghetti bog from
last night.

Yeah.

No, I'm okay.

I'll... I'll see you later, okay?

Okay.

See ya.

Bye.

I want... talk to the police.

Yes, please.

I just want to report a crime.

My name is Lorraine Blake and I've just
been

raped.

It's fine.

of James Street, Redfern, nearest Cross
Street, Cleveland.

Car 105, breathe in to James Street,
Redfern. Over.

Copy, Redfern 105.

Standing by for a car, back up, Redfern
105.

I know where I went to live.

I'll never go that way.

I just wanted to get home with the kids.

I tell Jade all the time, stay in the
light, stay

where people are.

Don't put yourself in a position where
there's something going to happen.

Look what happened.

For someone to take her out of place.

You walked home.

That's okay.

People walk home every day.

You should have been safe.

I want you to know that you're safe here
now.

You okay with being here?

My role is to attend to all your medical
needs and to examine you for evidence

that the police may use later in court.

If that's okay with you.

Okay, I'm just going to start by asking
you a few questions.

All right.

Since the assault, have you changed your
clothing?

No.

Have you been to the toilet, done a wee?
No. Poop?

No. Have you vomited?

No. Have you washed your mouth or
cleaned your teeth?

No. What about a drink or anything to
eat?

No. Can you tell me if you've had
consensual sex in the last seven days?

This is just in case the lab finds two
sets of DNA.

No. Good.

Can you tell me if he put his penis
anywhere else on your body, in your

No. Bottom?

Daryl Hopkins.

Did you lose the mobile phone?

Yeah, I did. We're informing you that
you've been placed under arrest for

aggravated sexual assault.

Do you understand that?

No. You have to come with us.

Now? Even now.

Daryl? I don't know if you understand.

You're obliged to say anything. Daryl?

Or do. You can be taken down.

I'll call you. Do I call you now?

I'll call you.

Get out.

Come here.

You're the good woman, you know.

And you're a fucking dog.

You know what else?

Blackfellas run me, John.

They're going to find out about you.

I'll make sure of that.

I'll take him from here. Yep.

He's all yours.

Can I get you in the game?

No.

You're gonna have to take down a Titan
in the event of tonight if you could in

your own words.

Hey. You OK?

Yeah, well... You know... Would you have
a cup of tea?

Thank you.

I'm sorry, Lorraine.

What are you sorry for?

I don't know.

People say.

Yeah.

True, though.

We got him.

We got him down there.

He's here?

Yeah.

Good.

Oh, my baby.

Look at him.

It's okay, Jade.

Thanks. All right.

What's happened?

Hey, Dad, you come and have a look at
these.

Try this, Gil.

Starling up on this stage.

Big woman.

Look at her.

Anyone think she was walking the red
carpet?

My baby.

She's just beautiful.

We arrested someone tonight.

I think we may have got him.

Jesus, Dad.

You reported it?

Why would you do that? Is it because
you're a copper?

Is that it?

Is it?

I asked you not to tell anyone and you
promised me.

You promised. Robin.

Robin,

please. You couldn't keep your mouth
shut. No, just listen to me.

You're a copper, yeah, but you're my
dad.

And you promised me.

I promised you, baby, but... You can
help yourself, eh?

You can help yourself.

Ellie tell you to do it? Ellie didn't
tell me nothing. Did she?

Robin. She did. Please just listen to
me. She told you to report it. She

tell me anything. Thanks a lot, Dad.

Imagine the gossip.

What's everyone going to think? They're
all going to think I'm a slut or feel

sorry for me.

It's been hard for you, Dad, but it's
been harder for me.

It was Lorraine.

Arnie Lorraine.

What?

We got him because Arnie Lorraine was
raped.

Jesus, Dad.

I can't.

I can't report it.

Is she going to think she's going to
hate me?

What's everyone else going to think?

God, please.

Please don't hate me.

Hey, I don't hate you.

I'm not going to judge you.

I'm going to fight for you. Hey, I'll go
out swinging. Come here.

No, don't.

Whatever you do and whatever you want,
I'll back you up.

I think it's going to be okay, though.

We got him.

There's nothing he can do now.

Where's Aunty Lorraine now?

Dropped her home.

She thanked me.

She thanked me for dropping her home.

It's okay.

No, it's not.

Yeah, it is.

Don't do this, Mum.

It's not alright and you know it.

David.

Yeah, sorry. I'm late.

Look, I'm not going to come in today.

Yeah, look, I've just got a few things
on personal things.

Yeah, they're pretty bloody personal.

How personal?

I've just been raped, David.

Raped?

Yeah, well, I think that's pretty bloody
personal in anyone's book.

Oh, yeah.

Thanks for your concern.

Yeah, I know.

That's not my colour.

It's just in time to make me breakfast.

What?

Nothing.

Two years.

Two bloody years ago. I was looking for
an excuse to start up again.

It's a pretty good excuse, I reckon.

You're excused.

Thank you.

It's going to be hard.

What? The court case.

Oh, you don't want me to go to court
now?

The courts don't care.

They don't muck around.

They can say what they want. I'll take
them on.

He's not getting away with it.

I'll make damn sure of it. Do it for my
kids.

I'm going to be walking through there.

I wouldn't need to work if Raymond
hadn't pissed off.

He stopped and left me with three kids
to feed, run the house.

You kicked him out, Lorraine.

Yeah, well... I'll have to pay the
bills.

You know, everything I make, every cent,
goes to paying off a debt.

It'd be a hell of a lot easier if a man
at a house was around.

I hate you.

I'm sorry for myself.

I'm stronger than I'd hate it.

You're strong.

Aaron.

Aaron.

Hold on.

You're right now, eh?

I told you.

I told you something like this was going
to happen.

Is she all right? Not really.

Does Robin know? Yeah.

She knows.

Is she okay?

She's okay.

She's struggling a little bit, but she's
okay.

It was a long night.

She's up to her sleep with baby.

I'm really worried about her, Aaron.

I'm worried about you too.

What sort of policeman doesn't report a
crime?

What does that mean? Can you be kind?
I'm her father, Ali.

I'm looking after her.

Is it the same bloke?

Yeah.

It is.

Well, that's it then.

Robin's got to say something. You've got
to say something.

We can't let Lorraine go through this by
herself.

She can't not report it now. She has to
say something. Just like you reported

Indigo and he slapped you around.

Don't you dare compare a punch to a
rape.

Just go.

What? Please just go. Piss off. Mind
your own business.

Mind my own business? Please.

You're the one that come knocking on my
door dragging me down here.

I'm in on this too now.

And I feel like shit. Don't you dare
tell me to mind my own business. You

me not to report it, not to say
anything.

But then what?

Lorraine gets raped.

You know what?

Robin.

We're going to send them in the other
room if you feel up to it.

In here.

Stand there.

Face the window.

Second floor left.

Turn to your right.

Sure.

You'll be pleased to know that all the
tests have come back negative.

Very lucky you didn't catch anything
this time.

You might want to have a read of these.

They explain the dangers of unsafe
casual sex, unwanted pregnancy and the

Everything that's talked about in here
is confidential, eh?

Yes, yes, of course.

I know what a condom is.

And I know what safe sex is.

You think I'm stupid, eh?

No. Like something called a slut.

You don't know why I came in here, do
you?

Because I was raped.

Hey,

Robin. Hey, Jane.

How are you?

I'm okay.

I am.

Hey, darling, how's that big girl of
yours? Oh, yeah, she's good. Still mad

ever.

Aunt, I'm so sorry for what happened.

Thank you, darling.

They got him.

That's the main thing.

Yeah.

Married man.

Three kids slash house.

You never know, right?

No.

How you going with everything?

Oh, look, you know, it's hard.

But I got my day in court.

And if I could cut off his... You know
what.

Anyway, bub, you take care, all right?
Yeah, you too. See you, Robin. See you,

sis.

And my Joe?

She's in the kitchen.

Mum.

I rang him.

You know, he knows everything.

You go to shop? What for?

I don't know.

Bread.

We got bread.

I just need to talk to your father.

What am I getting?

I don't know. Your dad's back.

Get him a slab of BB.

Oh.

Hey.

Wife raped.

Why, vulnerable?

Needs a man to make everything all
right?

Perfect opportunity to come back in and
be the man of the house, eh?

I've got this covered, babe.

I don't need no psycho bastard coming in
and wanting revenge. You got that?

You... You make me cry, and I'll slap
you again.

What did you get up to today?

Nothing.

Hmm.

I seen Aunty Lorraine today.

Yeah?

Bumped into her in the street.

How'd it go?

I don't know.

Couldn't look her in the eye.

And how was she?

I don't know.

I know it's hard, but you've got to
think yourself, bud.

Yeah.

I think of myself.

Yeah?

What if she finds out about what
happened?

She's not going to find out, eh?

How's she going to find out?

Everyone finds out something somehow.

No one's going to find out.

What if someone else got raped or bashed
or... And they didn't report it?

And say something happened to Donna
because they didn't report it?

Something happened to her, you'd want to
kill her, mate, eh?

I would.

What's up to? Nothing.

Enjoying the day.

Got any scrap, my uncle?

You got no shame, country.

Come on, bros. How many years have
bludgeoned me?

Twenty -three years. We're family.

Oh, we're not family.

Come on, bros. You can't claim everybody
is family.

We're all family.

Hmm. Trouble in paradise.

What? Just a girl not happy.

Yeah, whatever.

Where are you going?

Ali's.

To his girlfriend?

Who is it?

Hey, I need to talk to you.

What do you want?

Could you come downstairs, please?

Can't you tell me here?

I need to talk to you downstairs.

Really? Yes, really.

Look, if we're going to argue, we may as
well get married.

Are you going mad?

Don't be stupid.

Here you go.

You all right?

Yeah. You sure?

Yeah. Okay.

So how was Ali today?

I think I might leave that one a little
while.

Dad. Hey, don't worry, Robin. She
doesn't want to marry me.

Eh?

Marry you?

What, you asked her straight out? Yep,
asked her straight out. No mucking about

me.

And she said no?

Yes, she said no.

What for?

You know why, eh, Dad?

No, it's not because of you. It's got
nothing to do with you.

It's got everything to do with me.

If I'd gone to the cops and now Aunty
Lorraine... No, Robin, don't.

Don't blame yourself. Like I said, it's
just the timing, that's all.

Dad, I... Please, leave it, Robin.

Look, I could ask you something.

You might not like it.

You might say no.

That's fair, I understand.

But I've got to know, Robin.

I've got to know if that bloke in court
is the same bloke that I

need you to come to court tomorrow.

He threw me on the car.

Face first.

And he used his knees to spread my legs
open.

He ripped off my underpants.

I tried to fight, but he was choking me.

He was on top of me.

And then he started raping me.

How did you respond?

I fought.

I fought as hard as I could, but he was
too strong.

He was in my...

Face right on my face, telling me that
if I didn't shut up, he would kill me.

And what happened then?

I stopped fighting.

You know, I stopped hitting him.

I couldn't get him off me.

And what did you do then?

As he was raping me, I was looking in
his pocket, feeling

his car keys, wallet, anything.

I got his mobile phone.

And when he's finished, I call the
police.

I call the police on his mobile phone.

I thought you'd given up.

Yeah, so did I.

What, you're going to start too, are
you?

No. I'm not starting nothing.

What are you doing, then?

What do you mean?

What are you doing here, Raymond?

I'm here for you, Lorraine. Are you?

Yes.

If I'd have been here, none of this
would have happened.

It's not your fault.

He did this to me, not you.

I know.

I thought I was never going to see how
Keith did.

I was hoping he was going to look after
me.

You want to do something for me?

Stay here.

Go after the kids.

I don't want you going to court
tomorrow.

I don't want you sitting there and
listening to that fellow deny the whole

thing.

Just be here.

I'll be okay.

Dad?

Can you take me around to see Aunty
Lorraine?

What for?

I want to say sorry for not saying
anything.

Okay.

Okay.

Hey!

Um, just wondering if you wouldn't mind
Donna for a while.

Yeah, for sure.

Yeah. It won't be long.

Just going out to Lorraine.

Robin's got something to tell her.

Okay.

Well, if she needs to stay for the
night, it's okay.

No, no, we'll be all right.

All right.

Well, just let me know then, eh? Of
course.

Come on, the girl.

Go on then.

You'll be a good girl now.

Yeah!

your mother up to?

Come here.

No, that's right.

I, uh, I just wanted to say, um,

I just wanted to say how brave you were
today.

That's all.

You were amazing.

Thank you.

I know it's hard.

You can't carry this.

It'll eat you.

Just promise me you'll... You'll come
here if it gets too much.

Yeah.

Thanks.

I'm sorry, Dad. I just couldn't... Hey,
it's all good, bub. It's all good.

OK?

Hey, hello. Hey.

Donna, your mum and pop are here.

Hey, big woman.

How was it? Yeah.

Good?

Thanks, Celine.

I'm going to get this girl to bed. Come
on.

How'd it go?

Yeah, it was all right.

How's Lorraine? Is she all right?

Yeah, she's good.

Well, that's it. Just good?

Well, we went there and Robin told her
how brave she was.

What do you mean, how brave she was?

In court.

How brave she was to stand up in court
and testify.

That's it?

Yeah. Nothing about her?

No, she couldn't do it. Could have said
something.

Oh, what do you want me to say?

Jesus Christ, Aaron, you're the father,
the parent. You want to give her what

she needs, not what she wants. I'm
trying, Ali. That's not enough, Aaron.

Well, tell me, Ali, what is enough? I
just told you.

Hey. Hey.

What you up to?

I couldn't sleep.

Last night, what Robin told me.

You know he's got to talk to someone,
eh?

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

Where is she?

She's inside there. Well, I was knocking
on the door. I don't know. Might be

asleep.

Robin, Lorraine's down here to see you.

Hey, Bob. How are you?

Hi.

Yeah, good.

How's Donna?

Yeah, nah, she's good too.

When did it happen?

About a year ago.

I love you too, Alain.

The tea and stuff, eh?

Did you know him?

No.

Have you seen him around since it
happened?

No.

You want a cocktail or anything?

No. Bow down and write, thanks.

Did he talk to anyone?

Your dad?

Counselor?

No. You need to talk to anyone, okay?

See you, bub.

Bye.

How'd you go? No, nothing.

You look after that girl, eh?

I will.

You're a good dad, aren't you?

We're going to get him, all right?

Yeah, I know.

Thanks, Celine.

All right.

See you soon.

Okay. Bye.

You okay?

Yeah.

Celine's going to take Donna to kindy.

How come?

I want to see his face, Dad.

When he goes down, I want to be there.

You'd say you're an honest person,
wouldn't you, Mrs Blake?

Or it is Mrs, isn't it?

Yes. And yes.

And you're sure about that?

Yeah, I'm sure.

But it's true, isn't it, that you've
defrauded the Commonwealth Government of

Welfare payments in the range of $60
,000.

In the face of that, Mrs Blake, how can
you say that you're an honest person?

I am an honest person. But I just asked
you if you were an honest person and you

failed to admit that you've committed a
fraud.

So in saying that...

You've just lied to the jury, haven't
you, Mr. Blake?

I didn't lie. Yes, you did.

The simple question I asked of you is,
are you an honest person?

Now, honest people don't lie.

Can you tell me you didn't just lie?

You could call it a lie.

You always lie, Mr. Blake. Objection,
Your Honor. What's the relevance?

Relevance.

I have instructions from my client to
erase the issue of character, Your

As long as your client's aware of the
consequences that arise from such a line

of questioning.

Yes, Your Honour.

Fraud.

Just so we're all clear, it was fraud,
wasn't it, Mr Blake?

Yes.

Fraud, and it's something that I'm
deeply ashamed of, and I'm paying it

every last cent of it.

That's very admirable of you, Mr Blake.
Very honest, you might say.

Now, let's look to the night of the
alleged assault.

Now, the curious thing that I hope you
can shed some light on.

Is where had you been that night?

I was out.

Out? Out where?

Walking. Walking.

Okay. But your attire on the night
suggests it wasn't for exercise. You

wearing exercise gear, were you, Mrs
Lake? No.

So where were you?

I've got a job.

A job? Yeah.

And what sort of job sees you on the
dark streets of Sydney at night and not

home with your children, Mrs Lake? Your
Honour, object. You're badgering the

witness.

It's better be leading somewhere,
counsel.

I'd like Mrs Blake to explain to the
court the reason for her being on the

streets at night, Your Honour.

I'm not allowing that question.

Mrs Blake, simply answer the question,
where were you on that night prior to

interview?

I have a cleaning job.

It's a couple of hours a night to help
with things with the bills.

Cash in hand, is it?

Yeah. Cash in hand, so no paperwork, no
pay slip. Basically, it's undeclared

income.

In effect, you're defrauding the
Commonwealth government yet again. No,

not.

I have a second job because I have kids
to feed and bills to pay.

Yes.

Your circumstances are difficult, Mrs
Blake.

Single mum, three kids, $60 ,000 debt to
pay off.

Money's tight, isn't it, Mrs Blake?

Yes, it is.

Mrs Blake, this is what actually
happened, isn't it?

You had consensual sex with my client,
didn't you?

No, I didn't. And then you demanded
money from him. You hold up right there.

That's not what happened.

I was raped.

Why would I lie?

Why would I put myself through this, put
my family through this if it didn't

happen? Mrs Blake, you've defrauded the
Commonwealth Government twice and

everything you've said about this
incident is total fabrication.

I am not lying now. How's the jury
expected to believe you? Because it's

truth. Mrs Blake, is it your intention
to put in a claim for victim

compensation? I don't want this court's
money. You can shove it.

I promised myself that I wouldn't cry
until that man there was found guilty.

I work hard.

I work two jobs, day and night, to feed
my kids.

I would steal to feed them if I had to.
Anyone would.

But there are two things that I wouldn't
do.

I wouldn't sell myself.

And I'm like you.

I wouldn't defend a rightist.

The defence calls the accused, Mr Daryl
Hopkins, to the stand.

Can you please state for the court your
full name and your profession?

Daryl Lawrence Hopkins.

I run my own business. I've been a
chartered accountant for over 10 years.

And Mr Hopkins, are you married?

Yes.

Yes, I'm married. Three children.

And Mr Hopkins, have you ever been in
trouble with the police before?

Never.

Apart from the occasional parking fine,
I've never been in trouble with the law,

no.

Can you please tell the court of the
event on the night of the alleged

I was working late and I was heading
home.

I've been married for 18 years.

Until this night, my wife was the only
person that I'd ever had sex with in all

those years.

And I am truly disgusted with myself
that that is no longer the case.

And can you please tell the court what
happened that night?

I was walking along and I was approached
by a woman.

She was black.

She offered me sex.

I couldn't believe it. I laughed and I
kept going.

Then she came back and she kept going.

She leaned in really close.

I could smell it.

Perfume.

And I'm a man, so... Something happened

and I leaned in and we kissed.

And then I'm ashamed to say that we had
sex right there on that car.

And can you tell the court what happened
next?

And she started asking me for money.

So I laughed in her face.

And that's when she freaked out.

When you say freaked out, Mr. Hopkins,
can you please explain to the jury

exactly what you mean?

She started hitting me. She started
trying to scratch me.

She was trying to get my wallet.

I don't know how she got my phone.

And then... I just ran.

Mr Hopkins, is there anything else that
you'd like to share with the court

today?

I texted that woman.

But I did not rape her.

I betrayed my wife, my family, kids.

For that, I am truly sorry.

I have no further questions, Your
Honour.

My client is a 40 -year -old accountant
with no criminal record.

He's never been in trouble with the law.

And yet, you're being asked to believe
that a man such as this, happily

law -abiding accountant, suddenly
decides at the age of 40 to turn rapist.

And who's asking you to believe this?

Mrs. Lorraine Blake.

A woman whose evidence you've seen in
court.

A woman who's lied and lied.

Now I would ask you to consider the
reliability of her evidence.

She has described herself as someone who
would lie and steal and do anything

to feed her children.

It's her word against his.

I let you be the judge.

And I ask you to find him not guilty.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, you've
heard all of the evidence presented in

this case.

Lorraine.

Lorraine.

Wait a minute, please.

Lorraine, I'm sorry, Lorraine. You don't
know how sorry I am. I tried to get her

to report it and I should have.

I'm her father and I should have done
something, but what could I do?

She was scared.

And she begged me not to say anything.

I couldn't betray her.

Hate me, Lorraine, but please don't hate
Robin.

Robin, please ring me. Just ring me and
tell me that you're okay.

I'm not ready.

It's done. It's done.

What now?

One other thing.

Yeah.

Ask me again.

What?

Did you ask me the other day?

Ask me again.

What?

You want to get married?

Yes.

With me.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I
understand you've reached a verdict.

I'm sorry.

Please.

I'm sorry.

Guilty.
