Hey, Mom.

Hey, Ethan.

Did I miss dinner?

Yeah, well, we all did, except Brandon.

He made these sort of

turkey sandwich thingies.

I don´t know. You want one?

Oh, no, I´m not hungry.

Kind of late for practice.

Oh, it was S.A.T. stuff.

What happened to your face?

Oh, it was a tough practice.

I´m going to get you some ice.

No, no, it´s fine. It´s fine, Mom.

Okay.

Hey, you must be nervous about tomorrow then, huh?

About what?

S.A.T.´s.

Oh, I´ve taken them twice already.

What time should I wake you up?

Uh... 7:00, 7:30.

Done.

Thanks. Sure.

Night, honey.

Night, Mom.

Ethan Sawyer, Senior at Glen Valley High.

Plays soccer, never been in trouble before,

everybody likes the guy.

Of course they do.

What about the family?

Kid brother, Brandon, 11 years old.

Father´s a bond trader, mother works

in international banking.

Could be kidnap and ransom.

Uh-uh-- Not high- profile enough.

Well, let´s run a trap-and-trace anyway.

Okay.

The mother was the last to see him

as he went up to bed last night at about 8:00.

What about the alarm system?

Well, she put it on before she went to bed

and turned it off this morning.

Danny´s running the locks.

Okay, let´s check all computers in the house

and run a check on all known sex offenders

in the neighborhood.

Good.

OFFICER: Agent Malone?

Phil Damore.

Thanks for helping out.

Jack Malone. It´s a pleasure.

How are the parents? Pretty messed up.

It´s a good family, nice kid. I like to think

it´s still a nice town.

I guess no place is safe these days.

Oh, I hate to tell you, buddy,

it´s been that way for a long time.

I understand that you told the police

that Ethan came in with a bruise on his face last night.

He said it was from soccer practice.

You think that´s true?

I don´t know.

Has anything been bothering him lately?

Not that we know of.

Well, actually, yes,

there was something.

I was walking by his room two nights ago.

I heard him crying.

Ethan?

( knocks on door )

Ethan, honey?

Ethan, honey, you all right?

Mom, come on! Geez.

I´m sorry. Are you all right?

I´m fine. Can you go?

Oh, honey, honey, no. You can...

You can talk to me, you know?

I know I can.

It´s nothing, okay?

It´s nothing important.

Okay.

Okay. I´m sorry.

Okay.

He doesn´t usually get so upset about stuff.

I don´t know.

I just thought it was one of those high school things,

so I didn´t want to intrude any more, but...

I have no idea what that was about.

Hey, Brandon...

your brother have asthma?

Yeah. He has to carry that around

all the time.

Brandon, do you know who this is?

That´s Ethan´s best friend, Alex.

What´s his last name?

Derfrey.

He lives around the corner.

Big house.

So your brother lets you hang out in his room, huh?

He used to.

He´s been kind of weird lately.

Weird how?

I think he´s got a girlfriend.

A girlfriend. Do you know her?

Mm, no.

But he was talking to her last night.

On the phone?

No, outside, before he came in.

I saw them.

SAMANTHA: Did you recognize her?

BRANDON: Mm-mm. It was dark,

but it looked like they were arguing.

Ethan was really mad.

Hey, buddy,

you know who Blue J is?

No.

Must be from his girlfriend.

All right.

You mentioned that Ethan was scheduled to take the S.A.T.

this morning.

Yeah, for the English.

He already had a 710 on his math.

Well, we spoke to

the, uh, review center,

and they say that he hasn´t been in the S.A.T. class for at least

two months.

Do you think he felt any pressure

about school

the exams, you know,

sports?

Pressure... from us? Pressure from anywhere.

Look,

of course there´s pressure.

If he missed a class, he had a good reason,

but if anything serious was going on,

he would´ve come to us, wouldn´t he?

I would think so.

Kid´s got a girlfriend that nobody´s ever heard of,

got a bruise on his face,

apparently he´s been ducking his S.A.T. classes for the last two months.

Nice parents, but absolutely clueless.

Gentlemen, this is the alarm log for the Sawyer house.

It indicates that it was turned off at 9:47 p.m.

and turned back on a minute later.

So he snuck out.

Or somebody that knew the system snuck in.

Well, I went over the entire log for the past year.

Someone was sneaking out three times a week

for the last two months, like clockwork.

He was probably going to meet this Blue J.

And you won´t get anything out of the computer.

The in box was trashed last Tuesday.

Okay, obviously something happened on Tuesday

that set off this erratic behavior.

I think our priority is to find out

who this Blue J is.

MARTIN: You and Ethan are best friends?

Yeah. We´ve known each other since second grade.

So you´d know if something was bothering him, right?

I like to think so.

Well, we think something happened to him on Tuesday.

Something pretty serious.

Tuesday...

No, I... I have no idea.

He´s been sneaking out of his house at night

for the past couple of months.

Ethan? No way.

He wouldn´t do anything to get himself in trouble.

We thought maybe he was having trouble with his girlfriend.

What girlfriend

are you talking about? Blue J.

Never heard of her.

I got to believe if he had a girlfriend,

he would tell me.

I mean, he´s kind of... square.

Oh! Oh!

Sweet!

Goodbye, Pink Man.

Dude, that guy regenerates.

Look, see? His arm´s coming back.

Ethan, that ain´t his arm.

( laughing )

It´s been a while, man.

It´s good to see you.

Yeah, man.

That´s the good thing about getting benched.

You get to blow off some practices.

You can blow them all off.

I still got a shot at starting.

Yeah.

And the girls really like it.

Right. Right.

You´re getting laid, right?

Come on.

Of course.

You´re still a v,

aren´t you?

( laughing )

Okay, now, you said he was benched from the soccer team?

Yeah.

That´s when we started

hanging out more.

His parents never told us about that.

Well, maybe they didn´t know.

Any problems with them?

No, they´re, um...

they´re good people.

He´s lucky to have them around.

Speaking of parents, where are yours?

Dad died when I was a kid.

Mom moved to Europe a few years back.

This is my uncle´s place.

Is he around?

No, he travels a lot.

But it´s cool.

I´ve got this great spread, you know?

Ethan´s a sweet kid. Everybody likes him.

You know he has asthma something fierce.

Yeah. We know.

Kid´s a fighter, which is why it killed me

when I had to put him on the bench.

How did he take that? Did he take it hard?

Yeah.

Missed a few practices.

But nothing serious, actually, until...

Until what?

Well, the last couple of days he´s been off, pissy,

and then yesterday,

he got into it with one of the guys.

Hey!

Hey! Hey!

What the hell you think your doing?

Go! Both of you!

On the field-- five laps!

I never seen Ethan go off like that.

Do you have any idea what it was about?

I mean, did you overhear anything...?

No.

I mean, there´s always rivalries,

but, you know, these boys are 16, 17,

they got a lot of build-up, you know what I mean?

Uh... Coach?

Ted.

Not now.

Yes, sir.

You got them peeing in cups.

Mandatory drug testing.

We had an incident a year ago.

Steroids?

They got them off some doctor in White Plains.

We busted it up.

The school board is going to be

processing urine on a routine basis.

Was Ethan involved in that?

No.

But actually, that kid that

he was fighting with, Chris Norton, he was.

Now, the doctor that was selling them the steroids,

do you have his name?

Look, dealing steroids ruined my life.

I was a doctor.

Now I´m a file clerk at an office supplies place.

You think I want to have anything to do

with pimply-faced kids

trying to be Spider-Man?

So why´d you get into it

in the first place?

You ever try to live off an intern´s salary?

Not to mention my med school bill.

Tell us about Chris Norton.

He was my main buyer, but I haven´t seen him in a year.

How about Ethan Sawyer?

Yeah.

He was never into the steroid thing--

I mean, as far as I know--

but the weirdest thing is,

is he came to the store a few weeks ago,

looking for me.

He thinks I can get him some

amoxicillin.

What did he need amoxicillin for?

It ain´t for strep throat, that´s for sure.

He says he´s burning when he takes a leak.

I mean, he´s begging me for the stuff.

Seems like all the kids

have been hitting me up for that stuff lately.

I tell them, I´m way out of that game.

He should go to the free clinic.

Teenage epidemic of sexually transmitted diseases.

It doesn´t make sense.

No, not in this town.

Something´s going on.

Either way, Ethan didn´t disappear because of an STD.

What if he gave it to someone else and they got pissed.

Well, he got into the fight with Chris Norton,

but it wasn´t about steroids.

Mm-mm.

Maybe this J girl we´re looking for

is Norton´s girlfriend.

Right. And that´s what the fight was about.

Yeah.

What´s going on here?

Christopher Norton?

FBI.

Hey, what do you want? I got to go.

Hey, talk to us first. What happened here?

My sister, she just tried to kill herself

and I got to get to the hospital.

What´s her name?

Jen. Jennifer. Can I go?

Does Jen know Ethan Sawyer?

Why do you think this happened?

What do you mean?

He raped her.

Chris, tell me

about Ethan Sawyer.

I swear to God, I didn´t do anything to him.

Okay, well, how do you know that he raped your sister?

He´s been drooling all over her for weeks.

Every time her name comes up

he looks all funny.

And then she comes home Tuesday night

and she tells my mom she was raped.

By Ethan?

No, she wouldn´t

say who, but...

I figured it out.

So how´s Jen?

Fine.

Why?

Just wanted to see how she was and make sure she was okay.

Why wouldn´t she be okay?

I don´t know, man, never mind.

You son of a bitch...!

You bastard!

Hey. Hey! Hey! Hey!

What the hell you think you´re doing?

Go on, both of you, on the field, five laps.

So Ethan asks you, "How´s Jen?" and you jump him.

Jen didn´t tell anybody about what happened to her, okay?

Not even her friends.

I mean, so Ethan comes up to me all worried,

asking how she is, like he knows something.

And I got to figure

that´s the only way he knows.

We got Chris Norton back here.

Your Agent Taylor is interrogating him.

So you´re aware of the rape allegation?

Not from Chris.

And I certainly didn´t know

it had anything to do with Ethan Sawyer.

But you knew something.

Mrs. Norton informed us

that her daughter had been raped on Tuesday.

A couple of my deputies looked into it,

but the girl was uncooperative,

wouldn´t say what, when, who--

nothing we could do.

And you didn´t think this was

important enough to share with me?

I didn´t want to expose the family.

And if your agents had told me that Chris Norton got in a fight

with Ethan the other day, I certainly would have told you.

But the communication has to go both ways.

Right.

I´ll keep that in mind.

It´s not true.

It simply can´t be true.

And you think this has something to do with what Ethan´s missing?

It is possible.

Now, Mrs. Sawyer, I need you to think about this.

If it is true,

do you think Ethan might have run?

I don´t know. I suppose.

All right, well, we ran his credit card and his ATM.

There was no activity.

Does he have access

to any other money?

No.

Okay.

Now, I... I apologize

for asking this, but...

is there a possibility that your husband knew

and he just kept it from you?

And what?

Helped Ethan run away?

No. Absolutely not.

My son is not capable of raping some girl.

Your son cut SAT classes for the last two months,

snuck out of the house regularly,

was dropped from the starting line-up

of his soccer team.

He may have even picked up

a sexually-transmitted disease.

All of which you claim to know nothing about.

I know my family.

I´m telling you, my boy did not rape that girl.

How can you be so sure?

That other stuff, as far as I´m concerned,

that´s just teenage rebellion.

But there are certain things that a father knows.

I know how I raised my kid.

And I know what kind of boy he is.

If you are helping Ethan run or hide,

you are just making the situation worse.

I don´t know where he is.

MRS. NORTON: I came home Tuesday.

I found Jennifer in her room.

She was drunk,

she was filthy, there was evidence of sexual contact

and she was crying her eyes out.

I begged her to tell me who had done this to her,

but she refused.

Why do you think she refused?

Why?

She was ashamed, obviously,

or she´s frightened,

or she´s protecting someone,

and now you tell me that Ethan Sawyer is involved?

Well, we don´t know that

for sure.

We wanted to speak

to Jennifer to confirm it.

I don´t think she´s up for it. I´ll try.

Thank you.

Tuesday. That´s the same day

that Ethan erased all of his e-mail account.

Burning the evidence?

Mm-hmm.

But if he raped Jennifer, why wait three days to run?

Okay.

You still don´t know where Ethan is?

No, we don´t.

Do you know where he is, Jennifer?

Look, I know this is really hard for you,

but we need to know,

okay?

Can you tell me what your relationship

with Ethan was?

Please, this is too much for her.

No, it´s okay.

Jennifer,

did Ethan rape you?

Of course he didn´t rape me.

We were in love.

I´ve never felt like this.

Me neither.

I don´t want to be with anybody else.

Not even for a second.

Really?

Isn´t that weird?

I love you.

I´m so in love with you.

If Ethan didn´t rape you,

can you tell me who did?

Do you think he may have found out who did this to you?

I don´t know.

Ethan was sneaking out at night to see you, wasn´t he?

Yes.

Were you and Ethan having sex?

Did you know he had a sexually

transmitted disease?

No, he didn´t.

Well, we know that he went to a clinic

a couple of weeks ago and tried to get

some antibiotics.

That wasn´t for him.

It was for me.

What?

I don´t want to talk anymore.

We just have a few more questions.

I´m sorry, please leave.

It´ll be really....

I´m sorry. Please leave.

Well.

I guess Ethan was the knight

in shining armor after all.

Mmm. Okay, so maybe he finds out who rapes Jennifer,

he goes after them, and it turns ugly.

We should talk to her friends.

Somebody has got to know something.

So we understand Jennifer Norton

is one of your closest friends.

Yeah. She is.

How is she doing?

She´s seen better days,

but she´ll be all right.

Listen, Amber, we need to speak to you

about something kind of confidential,

so we´re going to...

Okay.

Thanks.

Mm-hmm.

Jennifer was raped.

What?

When?

Four days ago.

Tuesday afternoon.

At the party?

Yeah.

At the party.

Who told you about that?

There were a lot of people there.

Some of your friends have got big mouths.

Tell us what you know, Amber.

Whatever it is, it won´t leave this room.

Well, to be honest, I was pretty blitzed.

But I didn´t see anything like that.

Can you tell us who Jennifer was there with?

Was Ethan Sawyer there?

Ethan is not really into the scene.

He only hangs out every once in a while because of Alex.

Alex Derfrey?

Well, yeah, of course.

The party was at his house.

It usually is.

We hang out there

two or three times a week.

It´s great, no parents.

( hip hop music playing )

Amber, you got to see this.

You won´t believe what Jennifer is doing in the other room.

( boy shouting )

BOY: Jenny! Way to go, Jenny!

She´s a porn star!

So was Ethan there?

He showed up late.

And he wasn´t particularly happy

with what was going on with Jennifer.

It was pretty wild, even for Jen.

So how often do these parties go on?

A couple of times a week.

It´s not that big a deal.

I mean, everybody is okay with it.

We´re talking orgies.

How many kids?

20, 30, sometimes more.

They watch porno, and then duplicate

what they´ve seen on the TV

like it´s some kind of game.

14-year-old kids with multiple partners--

it´s getting rough out there.

Well, the parents impose these curfews

on Friday and Saturday nights.

Meanwhile, they´re completely unaware

of what´s happening in the afternoons

when they´re at work.

So was Ethan in that room

with Jennifer?

Some of the time,

but according to Amber Rogers,

he mostly just stood around.

Is it possible that he did something to her after?

Amber said she didn´t see

because she was getting busy herself.

Maybe Ethan saw something he shouldn´t have,

or was going to out everybody.

We need to get more out of Jennifer Norton

and we need to bring in Alex Derfrey.

Do you like to party, Alex?

Sure.

Who doesn´t?

What about Tuesday at your house?

What about it?

Jennifer Norton was raped there that day.

What?

No way, man.

Yeah, and Ethan found out,

threatened to report it,

and the whole thing was going to come tumbling down,

isn´t that right?

No. Sorry. That´s wrong.

Do you see where we are, man?

Huh? This is a police station.

Do you know why that is?

Because you´re 18.

An adult.

Jennifer is 16. A minor.

Now if something happened to her in your house,

you´re going to be charged with accessory to rape.

Look, I only know what I saw.

MARTIN: So you didn´t see what happened in that room, huh?

How could I? The door was closed.

How long were they in there?

I don´t know, a few minutes.

Then Ethan came out,

went right by me.

Jen was in there, crying.

Look, for all I know, he could have raped her.

I know Alex-- all of these kids.

I coached Amber Rogers and her brother in T-ball.

I don´t think Amber Rogers

has played T-ball for quite some time.

A good kid, she´s from a good home.

There´s something very wrong in this town, Sheriff.

Coming from a good home doesn´t make any difference.

( phone rings )

Sheriff.

Right away.

That´s the Sawyers.

Ethan just got in touch.

I checked my Blackberry first thing this morning

and there was this message right here. Look.

"Mom, Dad,

"I had to go.

I love you. Ethan."

See, at least he´s alive.

This means he´s alive, doesn´t it?

Yes, it could mean that.

That´s good news.

We´ll put a trace

on it and find out where he is.

JACK: Thanks.

We´ll be in touch

as soon as we know more.

Thank you.

We shouldn´t try to get their hopes up.

That message was really generic.

It could have been sent by anyone.

SAMANTHA: We know about Alex, okay?

We know what was going on at his house.

You don´t know anything.

I know you were getting tired of the whole thing.

And then you met Ethan.

I hear he´s a really nice guy.

He´s an idiot.

I gave him my heart.

And he broke it?

How?

We made a vow

that we would only be with each other.

I thought it would be easy for him.

He was a virgin before we met.

He promised we were only going to be together

and... and then I found out he...

There´s this girl, Vicky Johnson.

He slept with her?

How did you find out?

She told me.

I just got so mad.

I wanted

to make Ethan go away.

In my mind.

So I went to Alex´s party and got messed up.

And started doing...

something, I don´t know.

And then I saw him...

Get out of here!

What the hell are you doing?

What do you mean

what am I doing?

I´m doing what I want to do.

To hell with you!

You´re disgusting.

Shut up.

You´re disgusting, Ethan.

How could you?

I loved you, you liar.

Look at you.

Liar!

( door slamming )

Was that the last time you saw Ethan?

No. I didn´t hear from him

for two days.

And then, um... Friday night I was asleep...

Jen...

Jennifer!

Jennifer!

Let me in.

Ethan, what are you doing here?

Jen, let me in.

I´m sorry about the other day.

I´m so sorry.

But I need to talk to you.

Just go away.

I can´t deal right now.

Jennifer, please...

JENNIFER: I should have let him in.

Maybe if I had let him in...

Hey, it´s okay.

I don´t know why I was ever doing any of that.

Maybe cause

everybody else was.

I thought... I thought it was nothing at first.

Like a game or something.

After a while it started to feel... bad.

Really bad.

But I kept going back until I met Ethan.

It´s okay.

Mrs. Norton, I just spoke to your daughter.

She wasn´t raped.

Not by Ethan Sawyer,

not by anybody.

No, she told me she was.

Why would she lie to me?

Well, I don´t think she lied to you.

What I wanted to believe?

What could be worse then rape?

She was having sex with multiple partners

at a party, and it wasn´t the first time.

She was too embarrassed and humiliated to tell you

so she didn´t.

So she let me believe that...

And she got your attention.

Which is what she needs

from you right now.

Vicky Johnson?

FBI.

Which one of you is Vicky Johnson?

VICKY: I never had sex

with Ethan. That´s not what you told

Jennifer Norton.

She´s in the hospital, Vicky.

She tried to kill herself.

And we´re fairly certain that she´s telling us the truth.

You wanted to hurt Ethan, Ethan´s gone missing.

That makes you a suspect, Vicky.

Do you get that?

MARTIN: So come on, help us out here.

It was supposed to be a joke.

Look, I told Jennifer I slept with Ethan.

And...I told her in a lot of detail.

That was Tuesday afternoon?

Yeah.

She was pretty messed up about it.

Later I saw her at the party and she was with these guys

and Ethan showed up

and the whole thing got pretty ugly.

After a couple of days,

I started feeling really bad about it,

so I went to his house and told him the truth.

And you just lie like that?

For fun?

I´m sorry.

I´m really sorry.

Ethan, are you okay?

Why would he put you up to that?

Why would... why would he do that to me?

I don´t... I don´t know.

I mean, maybe he just wanted to screw with you

or something.

I´m going to kill him... I´m going to kill him.

MARTIN: And whose idea was it to lie to Jennifer?

Do I have to say?

Yes, you have to say.

Alex.

Alex Derfrey.

What´s going on here, man?

I told you everything already.

We just have a few more questions...

for clarification.

So I spoke

with this girl, Vicky Johnson.

You know her?

Yeah. Sure.

You know what I´m talking about?

Gag?

Yeah. Apparently you knew

that Ethan and Jennifer Norton were in love,

so you told Vicky to lie to her.

Say that Ethan was sleeping with someone else.

It was just a joke.

Right.

But Jennifer ended up at your house on Tuesday night,

back to her old ways.

And Ethan saw what was going on

and that´s when they had that fight.

( clearing throat )

I´m sorry.

I should have told you before.

Yeah. Yeah, you probably should have.

And I think you would have,

if you didn´t have something else to hide.

Now what was that?

You know what?

I want to talk to my uncle now.

We already called your uncle.

He knows what´s going on.

And, uh... he didn´t seem all that concerned.

As a matter of fact,

he´s on his way to Hong Kong right now.

Won´t be back until next week.

Whatever.

Maybe we should call your mom.

You have any idea where we can find her?

I didn´t think so.

You know, I went to high school with a guy like you.

Threw all the big parties,

slept with all the girls.

But you know what?

He was really just a sad, lonely kid.

And you know why?

Because when it came down to it,

nobody really gave a crap about him.

Well... you got it all figured out.

Well, you know, Ethan.

He´s got a mom,

and a dad.

He´s got a real life.

That´s all you really want,

isn´t it?

So what, you´re going to arrest me for being lonely?

No, but I will arrest you for killing Ethan.

Why the hell would I kill Ethan?

He´s my best friend.

Because your best friend found out about your little prank

and he snuck out of his house that night

to come see you and to tell you what he thought of you.

And maybe just to give you the beating that you deserved.

But you got the better of him, didn´t you?

No.

It was an accident right?

You guys got into it.

He told you what´s what.

And then you lost your cool, Alex.

That´s not what happened.

Then what? Cause I know he came to see you.

Yeah. He did come to see me, but that´s not what happened.

Then what happened, Alex?

What?

He...

( voice breaking ): he wanted to know why.

How could you do this to me?

You´re supposed to be my brother.

I was trying to protect you, man.

You saw her.

Y-You think she cares about you?

You think she loves you?

You want to talk about love?

You´re pathetic.

I don´t ever want to see you again.

It´s just, I...

didn´t want to lose him.

So he went to Jennifer after Alex.

If Alex is telling the truth.

I think he is. He´s a sad, screwed up kid,

but I don´t think he killed Ethan.

So what happened after Ethan left Jennifer?

I got background on Vicky Johnson.

Check this out.

Johnson is her mother´s name.

Her born name is Victoria Ann Damore.

Sheriff Damore is her father.

Deputy said you wanted to see me.

Yeah, Phil, come in.

Shut the door behind you.

Grab a seat.

Looks like we might have had a breakthrough.

That´s great.

A girl named Vicky Johnson.

She gave us some information about Jennifer Norton.

And?

Looks like your people were right.

There was no rape.

So Jennifer lied?

Apparently.

Did her mother know?

About Jennifer lying? No.

Mrs. Norton is a good woman

just trying to protect her daughter.

Yeah.

She is a good woman,

isn´t she?

What´s that?

Ruth Norton, she´s a good woman?

We´ve run a check on your phones.

Here, and your cell phone.

We know that the night Ethan went missing,

you called Ruth Norton

several times. Why?

We´ve checked the records back to January, Phil.

So Ruth and I were seeing each other.

I mean, we´re adults, it´s not a crime.

I´m in the process

of getting a divorce.

When it comes through, we plan on being married.

We´ve been all over the Nortons for the last 24 hours

and you have never mentioned it.

What´s this about?

Ruth Norton told you that her daughter was raped.

But you knew that no one would take it seriously

because she wasn´t going to talk.

So you went down to the high school,

talked to a couple of high school kids,

stumbled into Alex Derfrey´s parties

and that´s where you saw your own daughter Vicky.

I understand, Phil, I really do.

I have two daughters of my own,

and I would do anything to protect them.

It was an accident.

I never meant for...

I know.

I just want you to tell me

what happened on Friday night.

I went over to that kid´s house.

Alex.

They were doing things that were just...

you wouldn´t believe.

( heavy rock music playing )

I was going to go in there

and bust it up,

and then Vicky came out.

The look in my daughter´s eye.

( voice breaking ): I don´t know...

I knew

I´d lost her.

And somehow, I couldn´t get the nerve up

to go in there and put an end to it.

I just wish I had.

God.

So what did you do?

I called Ruth.

I couldn´t get her.

She was in the city working on some big deals.

I went and got drunk.

I parked myself in front of her house

and just waited for her to come home.

And then I saw Ethan.

JENNIFER: Go away, I can´t deal right now.

ETHAN: Jennifer, Please.

And that did it for me.

I thought, it had to be him--

the one who raped Jen.

So I picked him up

and took him out to the woods, outside of town.

I just wanted him to confess.

I didn´t do anything.

You raped her, you piece of crap!

I did... Who?

Jennifer Norton. What?

Yeah. I know all about it. Now I want to hear it from you.

You´re crazy.

I love her!

Tell me now. Say it, you son of a bitch.

Tell me what you did to her.

Say it!

It just happened so quickly.

I forgot all about his asthma.

I don´t know.

After I screwed up with my daughter,

I just wanted to be there for Jen.

I just wanted to...

be there.

Sheriff Damore...

I´m going to have to read you your rights.

( sobbing )

I don´t want to be with anybody else, not even for a second.

Really?

Isn´t that weird?

I love you.

I´m so in love with you.
