Careful. It's all sticky.

That's full of nutrients.

Spread that on the bulbs we bought today. Wait a few weeks and... Of

Of course.

You ever build a boat like that, Daddy?

No, that's a grain ship. Last thing we were gearing up for were icebreakers.

Daddy, when are you going to go back to work?

Soon, I hope.

What do you say we pick up some Petunia?

Tansy. Little angel faces, right?

Just like yours.

Race you to a car?

Yes. Let's keep going with that one. 400 on movie quotes.

We didn't exactly believe your story, Mr. Shaughnessy.

We believe you're $200.

Patrick! Bruce.

Who's the Maltese Falcon? Yep. Who is the Maltese Falcon? Yes.

Let's finish it out. $500, please. Patrick!

Do you, Alice... No more.

Patrick!

...be your husband?

Patty. For seven brides, for seven brothers. Good for $500.

Stop it!

Dad took me to see one of the 50 boats today, and you missed it. I even got to

steer it.

Daddy! Kelly, why do you tell her those stories? You know, it just sets her off.

Sorry. You're always lying.

Shut up. Liar, liar, liar.

Girl, stop it.

Stop it!

Fettle down, Nene. He didn't want to see the stupid tip anyway.

You hit my hat!

Come on, catch me.

You get a shot here. Get a shot. See, we got all these pansies and Kelly wants

to put a rock garden. Kelly, come here.

Come here, Kelly. Let's get a shot. Hey, Kelly!

Shoot.

Dad, Amber's here.

Wait a sec. Turn on your face, Angel.

Hey, hi, Amber.

That's a pretty dress.

Thank you. Come on.

So, Keith, where's my oldest daughter?

Say hello to Grandma.

Hey.

Hey.

Come on.

She looks a little red in the cheeks, Christina. Do you think she dressed warm

enough? Just a tooth coming in, Mom.

They always chafe like that when they're teething. She feels feverish,

Christina.

Yeah, we'll put this on.

Yeah. Talk to Jonah?

Hi. No, he was playing soccer. But he looked around like maybe he was looking

for you. No way. He still likes you.

We don't even talk.

I mean, I haven't said a word to him since fifth grade.

He still likes me. I don't think so.

Look at that kid. He's always walking around on tiptoe like he's on eggshells.

You know, that's the problem with growing up in a house full of women.

years old, Dad. Give him a break.

See what I mean, Keith?

Come on, let's go get some cakes.

Careful. Careful.

When is the shift in?

Not until nine.

Could you do me a favor?

Could you clean up a bit afterwards, please? Yeah, sure.

Like the post office any better now?

Well, it pays the bills, and that's what counts, right? Yeah.

Keep an eye on Kelly, okay?

Yeah, right.

Like little Miss Smarty Pants is going to listen to me.

The reason that you and Kelly can't stand each other is because you're cut

the same cloth.

You two open your mouths, I never know what story is going to come out.

You're late.

You're a good kid, Christina.

No, it's mine.

I don't have a butt on me.

You're a brat.

Stop it. Hey, Kelly, cut it out.

Getting into the records again.

I found the white album filed under W.

I'm a party girl.

Okay.

Kelly's ticked off again.

What is it this time?

Well, she wants to go out with Amber after school.

She knows you got that interview with Pac West.

Yeah, wouldn't that be nice?

Let's think.

$60 ,000 a year for a week vacation.

No more babysitting.

Get my wife back to where she belongs.

Oh, no, come on. No, I'm filthy.

I don't care.

Can't we lock Patrick in the bathroom again?

No, wait. No!

times, Kelly. How many?

You know he's terrified of being left alone in the bathroom, Kelly. You know

that. He was bugging me.

Well, let's just see how you like it, huh? No, Dad, don't! Phil, please.

Take the kids downstairs.

I'm sorry, but I've had enough to hear with these scenes of hers.

want to sleep with you tonight?

I'm

sorry if I

ruined your birthday.

Did he hurt you much?

I hate him.

He'll be different in the morning.

I still hate him.

It was just the spanking.

It's hot.

He's not going to hurt me again.

Morning. Hi.

Missed the spot.

You're not still pissed off at me, huh?

You don't have to worry, Kelly.

You'll always be my special angel.

You know that, don't you?

Sure.

Still love me?

Yeah.

Get me out of here.

Remember, girls, it's your body.

If you don't want somebody touching you, just say no.

But what if you pulled into a car or something?

You can say no, but that's not going to stop them.

No, it isn't.

That's why it's important for each of us, myself included.

But what if he finds out? He won't. He's got a job interview today.

All I've got to do is make sure I'm home before five.

Yeah, but Nini will tell.

If he does, I'll kill her. She knows that.

Well, what about Patrick?

He never talks to anyone anyway.

It's still important to let them know how you feel.

Doriana?

Mrs. Sildebrand, when Micah's been told about her father touching her, the

police came and took him away, and now he's in jail and their mom's on welfare.

It's never easy.

But her family had to change.

There he is. There's Jonah.

Do you like his hair like that?

I don't know if it was nice or longer. That's what I think, too.

Oh, no, it's my dad.

I thought I'd find you here.

Dad, no, Daddy, wait.

I'm sorry, Dad, please.

Just get in the car.

How could you, Kelly?

I mean, what the hell were you thinking, leaving the kids alone?

You are so lucky, young lady, my interview was canceled.

Damn it, I thought you learned your lesson.

Not so long.

Oh, you go right ahead. You don't think she's going to be pissed when she finds

out what you've done?

That's not what I was... Shut up!

I'm getting tired of you and your moods.

Get down!

I am so sick of you embarrassing me.

You think I want people to know I'm with you, huh?

I'm sorry, Mommy.

I really am.

You've got to start thinking, Kel.

You've got a brain. You've got to start using it.

Can you bring me a cup of coffee, please?

Here.

You go make your peace with your father.

There you go.

Dad, I... Kelly, I know what that was all about.

This afternoon with those boys.

And you may think that I don't, but I do.

I had one daughter who slept her way into an early marriage.

I don't want to have another one.

And sometimes he's... He's got a lot on his mind, Kel.

It's hard for a man like your father to be out of work.

But he's like that even when he's working.

He's a good father, Kel.

He's doing the best he can.

Mom.

What would you do?

I mean, what would happen?

If Dad was... Well, if he was doing stuff to me.

What do you mean?

I don't know. Stuff.

Kelly, I don't know what story you're cooking up now.

But I don't think I like it one little bit.

Tired? Mm -hmm.

Yeah.

What else?

Have you been fooling around with Kelly?

Oh, he's fooling around all the time. What do you mean?

Never mind, I just had a long day, that's all.

It's not easy being the breadwinners.

What happened?

I'm grounded.

For how long?

He didn't say.

I'm gonna get him.

Your dad?

How?

I've got a plan.

Hildebrand?

Kelly, come on in.

What can I do for you?

Yes?

It's my dad.

What about your dad?

He has sex with me.

Have you heard from the mother?

No. We left a message at the post office in case she shows up there. Damn, I'd

like to talk to her before I take the girl to the clinic.

Then Kelly has been abused.

You know I can't comment on that.

She's a good kid. She wouldn't lie.

Look, you were right to call us in.

Well, what about the police? Maybe we should call them. The ministry will take

care of that, Mrs. Aldebrand. Just give us the time we need to finish our

investigation, all right? All right.

Kelly?

She's 11 years old, for Christ's sake. I'm sorry, Miss Wilson, but I told you

when you called. Dr. Kerr is the only doctor who's available on such short

notice. But... I'm sorry, Bob. It's just I was expecting Dr. Foster.

Well, she won't be on till tomorrow afternoon.

I think we should come back. You'd understand, wouldn't you, Bob?

Well, why don't we let Kelly decide?

All right, Kelly.

I'm Dr.

Kirk.

Are you going to look at me? Not if you don't want me to.

Will I have to get undressed?

I'm afraid so.

But Miss Wilson will come in with you and we'll give you a gown.

Okay.

It's going to hurt, isn't it?

Yes, it will.

A little bit.

Now, Kelly, I need you to lie down and scoot your bum down to the very end

That's it.

Now, this next part's kind of embarrassing, but could you put your

holders there?

Now, Kelly, I have to look inside you.

Do you understand that?

Can I go home after that?

I mean, the kid just went through female hell and she's, well, she's playing

cribbage.

I don't know. She's probably winning.

Listen, if a foster home becomes available, page me immediately, all

Thanks. Bye.

So she has been abused.

I didn't say that.

Then what would you say?

I could say it's a definite possibility.

And is that what you'd say on the stand?

I can't change what hasn't happened, Janice.

I don't understand.

I thought if I told that you'd take him away.

You did the right thing, Callie. Now, don't get me wrong. It's just that

reports that have to be made and people contacted and there just isn't enough

time today. I know that sounds horrible.

I will do what I can tonight, but really, honey, I don't think anything

happen until the morning.

What if my dad wants to have sex with me tonight?

Then you dial 911 and you call me.

All right, listen.

If you have any questions, if you get scared at all, don't hesitate to call

You're going to be all right.

None of your business.

Well, maybe I'll tell Dad on you. We're not supposed to go into strangers'

class. Maybe I'll dump water on you tonight when you're asleep and tell

you still pee the bed.

Anyway, she's not a stranger.

Four, five, six, seven, eight.

Take a chance. Take a chance.

Okay. Take a ride on the reading. If you pass, go. Collect $200. All right.

Does that really say that, Daddy?

Lucky bum.

Kill.

Mommy.

Gilbert Jonathan Farrell. Yes.

Would you please stand up, Mr. Farrell?

Hands in the back of your head, please. Fingers laced.

Gilbert Jonathan Farrell, you are under arrest for sexual assault.

You need not say anything.

There's got to be some mistake.

No, wait.

Daddy. Oh, my God. What is happening?

What are you doing with my husband?

My daughter, Kelly, has made a complaint, ma 'am. A social worker will

soon. Mr. Farrow, anything you do say may be used as evidence. And you have

right to obtain and instruct legal counsel without delay. Do you

I don't.

I don't understand anything.

What have you done to the family now?

What a mess.

There's no smoking done anywhere in here, that's for sure.

Kelly, go in there and tell them the truth.

Hi, I'm Susan Miore. I'm the Crown Counsel working on your case.

This is Mr. Reimer.

He's my associate.

Over there is Connie.

Connie's going to be taking some notes while we talk, okay?

Please sit down.

Now, I know you're probably a little bit nervous, but there's really no need to

be, because all we need you to do is tell the truth, okay?

I will.

Okay.

Hi, Julie.

How are you?

I'm okay.

Listen, I'm sorry. I didn't hear about the meeting until just about a minute

ago.

Okay, can we continue?

Kelly, yesterday you told your school counselor that your father had had sex

with you. Is that right?

Yes. Now, what exactly did you mean by that?

Well, he does stuff.

What kind of stuff does he do?

Sex stuff.

Now, does he do that all the time, or did he do it just once?

I don't know. I mean, it wasn't just once.

When was the last time that your father did sex stuff to you?

It was after Mimi's party. I'm sorry, I can't hear you.

And if I can't hear you, Connie can't hear you.

It was after Mimi's party.

With Mimi? Her younger sister, Jean.

I see.

Kelly, I know this must be very difficult, but I have to ask you to tell

exactly what your father did to you that night.

Just tell me what you told me.

Well... Can you speak up, please?

I guess my father...

He put his thing inside me.

Did you get that? No.

Can you say again what you just said?

My father, he put his...

his thing inside me.

I don't care what you say. There was not any damn social worker.

Nobody asked any questions. All I know is that some cops came into my home last

night and took my husband away, and nobody, nobody even had the decency to

me where he was being taken.

Granted, there was a bit of a mix -up last night, Mrs. Farrell, but that

negate the fact that sexual assault is an extremely serious charge.

No.

Sexual assault. That's what I'm telling you. I hear what you're telling me. It's

our responsibility to investigate the evidence as thoroughly as we can.

Do you believe her?

The question is, do you believe her?

The medical evidence is a little underwhelming, isn't it?

If you win this one, it could attract a lot of attention.

Give you a leg up on the competition.

If Kelly Farrell is telling the truth, and her father did what she said he did,

I want to be the woman that puts him where he belongs.

Gilbert Jonathan Farrell, you were charged that between the first day of

1986 and the 27th day of April 1992 in the province of British Columbia, you

a sexual purpose touched directly or indirectly with a part of your body or

an object the body of Kelly Farrell, a person under the age of 14 years.

Contrary to Section 151 of the Criminal Code of Canada.

Account number two. You are charged that between the first day of April 1986 and

the 27th day of April 1992, you did for a sexual purpose invite, counsel, or

incite Kelly Farrell, a person under the age of 14 years, to touch directly or

indirectly with a part of the body or with an object the body of Gilbert

Jonathan Farrell.

Contrary to Section 152 of the Criminal Code of Canada.

What is Mr. Farrow's plea?

Not guilty, Your Honor.

Okay.

Well, she seems like a good lawyer.

I brought you raisins.

I mean, she's tough, you know, but that's what I need right now, right?

And I got you a new toothbrush you ordered from Randy.

She's expensive, Mayor.

It could mean our savings.

I, uh... I got you some of these farmer's sausages you like. I thought

could fry them up with some potatoes.

He likes them with aniseed.

Idiot, Mom.

Kelly's a bitch.

Hey.

Now, you listen to me, young lady. I don't want to hear you calling her that

name ever again.

No, she's not. It's just her... Well, Kelly's just got a few problems she's

working through right now. That's all.

Christina, could you take Nini upstairs for a minute? Sure. Come on, kid. I'll

show you where Keith hides his train set. Yeah.

They're good evidence, Kim.

Not possible. They have physical evidence that you had sex with Kelly.

A kid that she was swooning after.

Jonah Collins?

Well, maybe she's... Don't be ridiculous.

Dad, I got a kid of my own now, so I gotta write.

You did something, anything to Kelly, I wanna know about it right now.

Christina! No, Mary, she's right.

She's right.

It's gotta be Kelly.

I made a lot of mistakes in my life.

But I cut back on the booze and I live by the book. But the evidence, Gil.

they're wrong, or...

There's a reason for it.

I don't know, but it's going to come out, Mary.

We've got to give Polly a chance, okay?

I learned from almost losing you, Christina, how much I really love my

And I swear to God, I swear to both of you, I did nothing to Kelly.

Did you find anything yet?

A few parking tickets, things like that, but certainly nothing in his past to

suggest incest.

The kids see our shrink?

Yeah. Look.

Look at that.

Oh, nice.

I've got one just like it on my fridge at home.

Harry, that's a penis.

And here I thought my boy had drawn a train.

Tender guess is a loud brown second psychologist.

Which will effectively cross out our guy's testimony. Who have they got?

A professional witness, Dr. Judith Ray.

She seems to think that abused children hate the smell of tuna fish because it

reminds them of vaginal secretions.

Makes you wonder who she's been dating, doesn't it?

Kelly, it would go a lot faster if you'd just cooperate.

But it's always the same things, over and over and over again.

Come on, Kelly.

Daddy. Kelly, if you're not going to take this seriously... Okay.

Kelly.

What is this?

A drawing.

And it is of what?

I don't know. A submarine.

Kelly.

Do you like seafood?

I'd be surprised if they didn't write about it.

Generally, the longer the sentence, the bigger the movie deal. You're making my

father out to be some kind of beast.

Excuse me, son.

Actually, I came to see you.

I need you to understand, Chrissy.

I know you don't want to testify. I don't think you understand.

My father and I didn't get along for a long time.

You seem to have a good relationship now.

We're working on it.

Christina.

I need you to testify for your father.

You need me to testify against my sister. Is that what you're saying?

All right.

I need you to testify against your sister.

Here. And here.

You keep screwing yourself up.

What about tape?

I can't take the chance.

We've got two videotaped testimonies up for review by the Supreme Court as it

is. We get a negative decision on just one of them and this case is going to be

thrown out on a wheel.

Especially now that Pendergast is on the case.

Nice, white, middle -aged male judge.

Just our luck.

Maybe we should risk the video.

No. Kelly's a strong kid. She'll be fine.

She just needs to get used to the system, that's all.

You seem pretty confident that she's going to stand up against Cross.

She stood up against her father, didn't she?

Where's Kelly?

I don't know.

Damn it.

Kelly, hurry up! You know I've got to drive Patrick and your sisters before I

to work.

She's in the bathroom crying.

Don't cry, you little liar.

Ow, Mom!

Fight your own battle. I don't have time for this right now.

You're a liar. You're always lying.

Shut up.

Liar, liar, liar. I told you to shut up! Big fat ugly liar.

Get lost.

I believe you, Kelly.

Big deal.

Do you want me to lock you in the bathroom, brat?

Mom!

I know.

I think we can do it all in one day.

We told the police that your dad's been abusing you.

It's the truth.

But I thought you said you had a plan.

I thought you said you were going to get rid of your dad. Yeah, but I... How

could you be so mean?

You know, you used to be so nice.

Why'd you tell them why?

Mimi, I hate you.

You're not my sister. You're not.

I heard.

It's been pretty rough, huh?

Everyone thinks I'm lying.

You know you aren't alone, Kelly.

What do you mean?

You'll have to trust me when I tell you that there are other girls in this

school who are going through the exact same thing you are.

But nobody's told me that.

Well, maybe they're not as strong as you are.

What you've done by coming forth and telling is a very brave thing.

But everyone hates me. They don't hate you, Kelly.

They just don't understand.

You see, people think that sexual assault is about sex.

But it isn't.

When your father molested you, it wasn't for sex, Kelly.

It was for power.

Then I'm not asleep.

Oh, honey, no.

Of course not.

What you are is a little girl who should be leading a little girl's life.

It's big, isn't it?

Yeah.

Is this where I'm going to be?

Mm -hmm.

Ms. Miori, I don't know if I can do this anymore.

I know you must be really nervous.

And that's very understandable, you know?

The thing you have to remember, though, is that what you're doing is an

important thing.

It's important to you, but it's also important to a lot of other kids who are

abused all over Canada.

Is that where my dad's going to be?

Yeah.

But look, I'll be right over there. If you get scared, you just look at me,

okay?

You can't just stop and... Why don't we go over your testimony again? Then we'll

talk about that, okay?

Okay. Do you want to sit up there where you'll be?

Okay.

Tell me again what happened on the night of Nanny's party.

I spanked her.

Hard?

I would say so, yes.

Did she cry?

Yes.

Did you use your belt or your hand?

My hand.

Were her panties on or off?

Off.

Hesitation. That'll kill you.

Be direct. Taking off a pair of panties to administer a spanking is not a sexual

act, so don't make it sound like one.

Other than that, I think you're ready.

How come you haven't asked me if I'm guilty or not?

It rolled into my face.

This is great. I got a big trial starting tomorrow. My key witness is

cold feet.

I hope this isn't a vengeance case, Janice. You know, look, Gilbert Farrell

guilty, and you know it.

Then you better get the girl under control.

Take a value.

It's Harry James. Yes, all about Harry 500.

Graham Greene wrote the screenplay, then the book.

about the search for this Harry.

Patty. Who's the third man?

I need the name.

Sorry. Frank or Bruce? Bruce? Who's Harry Lyme? Harry Lyme, who was the

man. Since this is wild about Harry, we would like you to come up with the

individual's name. All right.

That wraps it up for the Jeopardy round. Frank in the lead, 4 ,200.

Bruce next with 3 ,200.

Patty on the board with 1 ,100. She will select first in double Jeopardy, which

will begin right after this break.

I don't know.

She likes this one.

I think the Paisley looks better.

Go with the Paisley.

She doesn't like the Paisley.

When you examined Kelly Farrow, what were your conclusions, Dr. Kerr?

There was evidence of anal interference and dilation.

In layman's terms?

Kelly's anus had been enlarged.

In your experience, can this occur naturally?

No, ma 'am.

In my experience, anus dilation of Kelly's type is related to the insertion

an object either singly or repeatedly.

I see.

Thank you, Dr. Kerr.

Dr. Kerr, you mentioned the words Kelly's type.

Now, does that imply more than one type of anal interference and dilation?

Yes, it does.

But in Kelly's case, you would say that her dilation would be due to the

insertion of an object.

Yes. Like a penis?

Exactly.

Exactly or possibly?

Possibly.

Then it is possible that something else could have caused the dilation. Yes, it

is possible, however... Thank you, doctor.

Dr. Kerr, did you find semen in Kelly's anus?

No.

Scarring? Nothing out of the ordinary.

And in her vagina?

Pardon me?

Was Kelly Farrow's hymen breached?

No, it wasn't.

In fact, there was no tearing of her hymen at all, was there?

No.

So then, and correct me if I'm wrong, Kelly Farrow is still a virgin, yes,

Doctor? Well, technically, yes.

Thank you, Doctor.

She was nervous, scared.

I remember Kelly asking what would happen if her father wanted to have sex

her that night.

What did you advise her to do if that happened?

To call both 911 and myself.

Did she call you? No.

My superior gave me the go -ahead to bring the police in, and Mr. Farrell was

arrested that night.

Thank you. No further questions, Your Honor.

Ms. Wilson, were you present when Gilbert Farrell was arrested?

No, I wasn't. Isn't it common practice for a social worker to be at the

residence in a case such as this, to counsel the family? Yes, it is. Why

you there, Ms. Wilson?

The police and the ministry, I guess you could say we got our wires crossed.

I had been under the impression that the arrest would be carried out the

following morning, and I wasn't notified.

A bureaucratic mix -up.

I guess you could call it that.

Ms. Wilson, how long have you been with the ministry as a social worker?

One year.

And how many cases similar to this one have you seen brought to trial?

This is my first.

I have no more questions for this witness, Your Honor.

Oh, she's a sweet child.

Sometimes Kelly has problems concentrating.

but she always manages to maintain a C to C plus average.

Thank you.

Certainly she has some difficulty relating specific incidents. Thank you,

Hildebrand. That'll be all.

Difficulty relating specific incidents.

Is that another way of saying Kelly lies?

No, not at all.

Kelly, well, she has trouble sometimes following a story from beginning to end.

But that type of behavior is not inconsistent.

with sexually abused children.

Really?

Have you had special training in dealing with sexually abused children?

Well, no, I haven't. Perhaps you've taken workshops.

No. Then how did you come by this knowledge?

I read the statistics, Ms. Brown.

Mrs. Hildebrandt, even though you yourself admit your lack of training in

education, although you do admit to being well -read, you teach an abuse

prevention class in your school, don't you? Yes, I do.

Is Kelly in that class?

Yes. Is Doriana Toma in that class?

Yes.

Do you remember what Doriana told the class the day before Kelly made her

accusation?

She told us that her cousin had been molested by her father.

The day before Kelly made her accusation.

And what did Doriana say her cousin did about it?

She called the police and they took him away.

Thank you, Mrs. Hildebrandt.

Boy, that girl better be gangbusters tomorrow. She's all we've got left.

The tide does seem to be turning.

Do you, Kelly Farrell, swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but

the truth, so help you God?

I do.

It was usually when my mom was at work, but sometimes she was home.

The night of Mimi's party, was your mother at home?

No. I mean, she wasn't home, but then she came home.

Were you alone with your father at some point that evening?

Yes, in the bathroom.

Where was your mother at that point?

She was downstairs with Mimi and Patrick.

So you're alone in the bathroom with your father.

What happened then?

Kelly, what did your father do?

He told me that I was bad and that he had

to show me how to be good.

How was he going to show you how to be good?

He had sex with me.

How?

He put... He put his penis in my rear end.

And he moved it up and down.

And it hurt.

Did you tell him that it hurt?

Yeah.

Well, then what did he say when you told him that it hurt?

He told me to relax.

Kelly, you've told us that your father had sex with you for quite a while.

Why didn't you tell on him till now?

Because... Because I thought everyone would say that it was my fault

that I caused it.

Because if it just happened once and I told...

Then wouldn't it be my fault?

But I let my dad do it again.

And I had gone back.

And I was bad.

And it was my fault.

With your fault.

I read about you in the paper yesterday.

They don't name names or anything, but I know it's you.

What?

If your father did those things to you, what you said, then I'm glad you're

taking him to court.

Bye, Kelly.

All right, Kelly.

I want to take you back to last Friday.

When you told the court that your father asked you to touch his penis.

Do you remember that?

Yes.

But isn't it true that it was you who asked and not your father?

Kelly.

Did you ask your father if you could touch his penis, Kelly?

Yes.

Why did you want to touch it, Kelly?

Because I'd never touched one before.

And did you touch your father's penis again after that?

No.

Okay.

Kelly, I want you to think back to the night of Nene's party.

The night you say your father had sex with you.

Were you angry with your father that night, Kelly?

Yes. And what did you do to your brother that night?

You mean the bathroom?

Yes.

I locked him in.

Why?

Because he didn't like it.

Were you mad at him?

He was bugging me.

Was your father angry with you about locking your brother in the bathroom?

Yes. What did he do?

He sent Mom downstairs with Nini and Patrick.

Then he made me go into the bathroom with him.

Did he thank you there?

Yes.

But then he... Then he what?

He had sex with me.

Did he put his penis in your vagina?

No.

But you say that he did put his penis in your rear end. Yes.

Why didn't you tell?

I couldn't.

Kelly, you said that your father's been having sex with you all this time and

you've never told?

Do you like hugs, Kelly?

Yes. Kisses?

Yes. Then isn't it possible that your father hugged you and kissed you the way

any father would hug and kiss his daughter and that you liked these

Your Honor.

And that you became confused?

No.

Kelly, do you love your dad?

I... Do you love your dad?

Yes. Do you love your brother, Patrick?

Yes.

But you hurt him, didn't you?

You locked him in the bathroom.

The thing he hates the most in all the world. The thing he fears the most.

Why did you do that?

I was mad at him. And are you mad at your father, Kelly?

Yes.

What is this, Kelly?

A soap crayon. Have you ever owned one?

Yes. Your Honor, I fail to see the relevance of this letter. I have no more

questions, Your Honor.

Miss Meory?

That concludes the case for the Crown, Your Honor.

Your dad called.

What did he want?

He was worried about you.

I thought it would be difficult for you today in court.

what to believe.

I mean, you say that you're telling the truth.

And your dad, he says he is.

And I feel like I'm being pulled in all of these different directions.

I just want to curl up and go to sleep.

You know what I mean?

We were a family, one with Kel.

And then one day I woke up and it was all taken away.

And I keep asking myself, what did I do wrong? I must have done something wrong.

You didn't.

Because I'm being made to choose between my daughter and my husband.

Listen, me and Amber were talking and, well, if your dad did do those things to

you, how come you didn't tell him not to?

I did.

But you let him do all that stuff.

Did he give you money to do it?

Bitch!

Kelly, are you cutting class?

Can I come?

You want to see a movie?

I mean, maybe they're right. Maybe it is my fault.

No, don't think that way.

Dorian is just a jerk.

So is Amber.

Did Nene tell you I called yesterday?

You did?

I was worried, I guess.

All I know is what's in the papers.

I'm thinking that maybe tomorrow I would skip out of school and... No.

I mean, please don't.

It would be... Well, you know, it would just be so wrong.

I don't know.

The movies?

Do you have any idea how worried I've been?

Here I am thinking you've been kidnapped and you've been to the movies?

Bye, Kill.

Bye.

You don't have to be here, Kelly.

Yes, I do.

Well, frankly, during our session, I found Kelly Farrow to be

Belligerent. I don't know whether she was telling me the truth or not about

anything.

Perhaps even she doesn't know.

Dr. Ray, do you think Kelly Farrow lied about her father having sex with her?

Yes, I do.

Why do you think Kelly would falsely accuse her father?

I feel there's a high probability that she is using the accusation as an

expression of anger toward her father.

Most likely because she fears losing his love and attention to the younger

children.

How would you explain the difference between telling the truth and telling a

lie? Well, when you tell the truth, it's because it actually happened.

And when you're lying, you're just making things up. And what happens when

you... Make things up when you lie.

Sometimes I get spanked.

Because you're not supposed to lie.

It's wrong.

And you know what happens when you lie in court?

You get put in jail.

Nini, do you know what being abused means?

Yes. My mom told me.

It means when somebody does something to you when you don't want them to.

Or they do something that makes you feel bad.

Has your father ever abused you, Nini? No.

Have you ever seen your father abusing Kelly?

No. She's lying.

Did Kelly ever tell you that your father had been abusing her?

No. He just spanked her because she was bad.

On the night of your birthday party, Nini, Kelly had just been punished and

got into bed with you. Did she say anything to you that night?

Yes.

She said she was going to fix her daddy so he'd never hurt her again.

Thank you, Nini.

Gil?

What are you doing here?

We've been married for 22 years. Don't you think I know your secrets by now?

God, Mary.

Thank

you.

What went on behind the door?

Oh, please, not you too.

No, no, it's not that I... It's not that I don't believe you. It's just that...

I need to hear you say it. I need to hear you say the words.

Nothing went out behind that door. Nothing.

I swear to God, I swear to you.

Nothing.

I don't know why.

Gil and Kelly, they've always had an on -off relationship.

One day they love each other, and the next day they can't be in the same room

without irritating each other.

How did you feel about this?

Well, I just always attributed it to Kelly's becoming a teenager.

Gil and Christina are our eldest. They went through a similar thing when she

Kelly's age.

Mrs. Farrow...

Do you believe that your husband has been abusing your daughter?

No.

I mean, how could he have? And I would know, wouldn't I?

My God, I could never live with myself if I thought that something like that

going on. It's just... It's just too horrible.

One last question, Mrs. Farrow.

How would you describe your sex life?

Pardon? Between your husband and yourself, would you say it was active,

-active, non -existent?

Well, it's, um...

It's quite

active, actually.

My mom and dad didn't believe in showing their affections.

I've always been determined that my own children wouldn't go through what I did,

so yes, I've hugged and kissed Kelly many times.

Mr. Farrow, have you ever touched Kelly's genitals? Yes, of course, when I

her or on those few occasions when I've had to spank her, I've obviously touched

her bottom.

And we have heard Kelly admit to touching your penis once out of

did you allow that? Because it was out of curiosity.

It wasn't sexual.

I was getting dressed. Kelly came in. She wanted to know what a penis felt

so I let her touch it. Then I finished dressing.

It was as simple as that.

Mr. Farrow, have you ever abused your daughter, Kelly Farrow?

No, I have not.

Have you ever done anything that in hindsight you feel might be misconstrued

abusing your daughter? No, I have not. I am truthfully innocent.

I have never had or entertained thoughts of having sexual relations with my

daughter, Kelly. Someone's been rehearsed.

When Kelly said I had sex with her, she lied. I don't know why, but she didn't

tell the truth.

If I was guilty, I'd be man enough to stand up and admit it.

I have no more questions for this witness, Your Honor.

Mr. Farrow.

The night of Gene's party.

What went on behind that bathroom door between you and your daughter? I spanked

Kelly.

I used my hand, and yes, I took off her panties, because that's the way my

father did it to me, and his father did it to him.

And it looks like I made a big mistake, because I'm paying for it. But I swear

to God, I did not do anything to Kelly that a million other fathers aren't

to their children right now.

Oh, you two, huh?

We were this close.

Here, feed the bubby.

Damn it, Larry. We could have done something important with this one.

You giving up on the kid?

Or are you giving up on yourself?

You got a fork?

Hey, hon.

Where's that honest feed?

Is Dad here?

Pac West called me for a second interview.

Where you been?

Went over to mom's to talk to Kelly.

How did it go?

When he talked to me.

Honey, if something's been going on, you can't just leave Kelly out there all by

yourself.

for worse, Christina. I meant it. How could you, Keith?

Look, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it the way it sounded. It's just, look, if you

know something, you've got to tell Christina.

And you say your husband took this the afternoon of me and his party? Yes.

Just a few hours before your sister Kelly alleges the sexual incident took

place. Well,

seems like a pretty happy family to me, Your Honor. May I remind my learned

colleague that her expertise lies in the judicial process and not in familial

relations?

Perhaps you have a question you'd like to ask, Mrs. Brown?

My apologies, Your Honor, and to you, Ms. Muir.

Christina.

I want to take you back to a night four years ago when you were babysitting

Kelly.

Do you remember the night I'm referring to?

Yes. Mom and Dad were out at a party and Kelly was in the bathtub.

Where were Nene and Patrick at this point?

Patrick was asleep in his crib.

Nene was supposed to be in bed, but she wasn't.

She came into the bathroom while I was with Kelly, so I took her to her room

I stayed there with her until she went to sleep.

What happened then?

I went back into the bathroom and Kelly told me that her bottom hurt. Did she

say why?

Yes.

She had stuck a soap crayon in her rear end.

Similar to this one?

Yes.

Go on.

She couldn't get it out.

So you did what?

I took it out. Did you ever tell your parents about this?

Not until a few weeks ago when I heard that Kelly's anus was enlarged.

Why didn't you tell them sooner?

Kelly asked me not to.

I mean, it was a pretty stupid thing to do.

Christina, I want you to think very carefully about this next question.

Do you have any idea why Kelly has accused her father of molesting her?

Kelly's always made up stories. You know, she doesn't like to take the blame

anything.

But I don't know why she's doing this.

Maybe she wants to get Dad back.

For what, Christina?

For loving me more than her, I guess.

Liar.

Kelly, we are losing this case because of you. Do you understand?

I need to know if there are other things that you haven't told me.

You deal with her on that.

Can I live with you, Mrs.

Hildebrandt? What?

You're the only one that really cares about me.

I promise I'll be good.

I'll cook dinner and I'll clean up and everything.

I won't be any trouble. I promise.

Kelly, please.

I'm your counselor and I'm your friend.

But I'm not your family.

I have a husband and a little girl of my own I have to take care of.

Sure, she was telling the truth.

Oh, good, you're here. Thanks for coming. No problem.

How's Kelly?

I wouldn't know.

She's not talking to me.

Want me to give it a try?

Just wait until I leave, okay? I don't think I can handle any more stress

Is your dad watching, Annie?

Hey, he's getting pretty good at it.

Oh, give Patrick a bath before you go to bed, will you? There.

Hi.

You like that, huh?

Yep, I do.

Back in the flag. Don't drink the water.

Okay.

Hi.

I'm going to go talk to Kelly. Do me a favor and watch Patrick Williams.

You know, Kel, it's okay to admit you were wrong.

What?

Just tell them you lied, then everything can get back to normal.

Go away.

Why are you doing this? Because what Dad did was wrong. Dad says you're lying.

Maybe I am.

Are you, Kelly?

I gotta know.

You understand that, don't you? Why?

You don't live here anymore, so why should it matter to you?

I'm the one that's still here.

I'm the one that matters too. Kelly. It's not you now, Chrissy. It's me.

And it's wrong.

And you know it.

Because you know, don't you?

You know.

And I knew.

And you know because now I know.

You know you knew.

But I don't know why. Get out!

Oh, Patrick.

I am so sorry.

I am so sorry.

I didn't know I swear.

You can tell the truth now, right?

You know, I think Annie's getting a little rash in the arm. You might want

have your pediatrician take a look at her. Annie, I want you to take Annie

downstairs and give her a bottle. Do you know how to do that? I'm not a baby.

Okay.

You lied to me, you son of a bitch!

Angel. Don't you dare call me that!

Christina, you're wrong. Damn right I'm wrong.

Please don't hurt your mother. You know what that would do? No, don't you dare

pull that shit on me again. Don't you dare.

Get out.

I don't have any other place to go.

I think I really give a damn.

Daddy.

Don't, Christina, please don't hurt the family.

I know you, Angel.

Please don't hurt her. Christina, please.

Please don't kill your mother.

Please open the door. Please.

My father always told me that he loved me the most.

That I was his special angel.

That I was...

Yes?

I... Would you like a glass of water, Mrs. Beresek? Yes, sir. Thank

you.

Thank you.

Take your time.

Christina.

I'm sorry.

I'm going to come right to the point here.

Is it your sister who is lying or is it your father?

I'm sorry I didn't hear you.

She didn't lie.

Is it your testimony that you now believe that Kelly was telling the

Yes.

I'm sorry.

She's lying, Mary. You know that. So you are now saying...

That your sister was abused by your father. Your Honor, I... I'd like to

this, Mrs. Brown. Did you actually witness this abuse?

No.

You've previously testified that Kelly has never told you that she was being

abused. Is that right?

So... What makes you now say that she was telling the truth?

Because she wasn't the first one.

I think I was six, maybe seven.

I was just touching at first, you know, while he was washing me.

But then at night he would come into the bathroom.

And he'd take off my clothes.

And he would push me down onto the toilet.

In his hands. I remember his hands. It was touching and... Yes, and?

He'd have sex with me.

Anally or vaginally? Oh, it was always anally. Because Daddy said that it

really sex unless it was done in the vagina.

How often did this happen?

Two, three times a month till I left home.

You had no idea that he was doing the same thing to Kelly?

I

was

helping him with it.

Why didn't you tell anyone?

Your mother, anyone, what was happening to you?

Because he told me not to.

He told you not to?

Yes, because he was my father.

That son of a bitch was making his way through the whole family.

Kelly?

I owe you an apology.

I'm sorry.

It's okay. Everyone always thinks I'm lying.

She's working on the Harris case, which is the one about the older brother that

was molesting the kids.

Thanks, Wilson.

Can you give me a minute? Sure, thanks.

About that counseling.

You're interested.

Not for me, but I know nothing.

Nothing has happened. It's for the children, you know, the trial and

Well, if there's an opening, I'll make sure you're notified.

Kelly?

What?

Do you hate Daddy?

Do you?

Yes.

I do too.

But sometimes I love him too.

I don't love him never. I hate Daddy because he's mean. He hurt me.

And he hurt you.

He hurt Chrissy.

He made me promise not to tell.

Me too.

If Daddy goes to jail, will it be for a long time?

I don't know.

I hope he goes to jail forever.

If he gets out, I'll be real big and I'll make him stop.

Because he's not going to never hurt us again. Never.

People believe me now, Daddy.

You said they wouldn't, but they do.

Honey, I don't know why you're doing this, but I've never stopped loving you.

want you to know that.

I always thought I was the bad one.

But I'm not.

You're the bad one.

Because you're the adult.

And I was just a kid.

Ellie.

You tell my special angel.

You were wrong.

Gilbert Jonathan Farrow.

On the charge of inviting, counseling, or inciting Kelly Farrow to touch,

directly or indirectly, the body of the accused, I find you not guilty.

On counts one and three, Gilbert Jonathan Farrow, that you did commit

assault on Kelly Farrow, I find you guilty on both counts.

Mr. Farrow, your conduct toward your daughter has been beyond the standards

decency or morality.

That you would use your child for your own sexual satisfaction is both

and depraved.

You are remanded into custody for a period of ten months.

with a further two years of probation, during which you will have no contact

with any child under the age of 18 without the presence of another adult.

And I advise you and your lawyer now, Mr. Farrow, that I'm asking Crown to

initiate a thorough investigation into the allegations the court has since

from your eldest daughter, Christina Berezuk. I will also strongly suggest

your relationships with your two youngest children be investigated as

And Kelly, there can be no correlation between age and honesty.

And the court does believe you to be honest.

The strength and courage that you've shown during this trial are to be both

commended and admired in a person of such tender years.

I trust that the ministry will assist you in the years of healing that now lie

ahead of you. Good luck, Kelly.

Case closed.

Oh, Cale.

Why did we have to start hating each other?

Because you went away.

And you didn't take me with you.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

It's okay, Chrissy.

Okay.
