In the criminal justice
system,

sexually based offenses

are considered
especially heinous.

In New York City,
the dedicated detectives

who investigate
these vicious felonies

are members of an elite squad

known as
the Special Victims Unit.

These are their stories.

I'm sleeping better.

And how are the feelings
of detachment?

I'm sorry.
Did you say something?

Last session, you talked
about how easy it was for you

to disappear sometimes.

I think you compared it to
a safe room inside of yourself.

It's a place that
feels familiar.

From childhood?

I don't...

Have you filled
that prescription

for antidepressants I gave you?

I'm not taking meds.

Okay.

How are your girls?

[pensive music]

[sighs]

It hasn't been easy pretending
like things are normal.

The goal is not normalcy
or to adopt

a façade for our children.

The goal is to do the work.

And to do that, first,
you need to show up.

I know I've missed
a few appointments.

After on-the-job trauma,
there's a protocol.

[voice echoing]
You miss appointments,

and I'll be forced
to report it.

And if I report it,
there's a good chance

you'll be removed
from active duty.

Music's hottest
young couple,

Nashville songbird
Kelsey Jones

and pop bad boy Austin Boyer

have just hit
30 million followers

on their joint
social media account.

And we've all been there
every step of the way

since they first met
backstage at Coachella.

And here they come right here.

Here they are,
Austin and Kelsey!

Whoo!

Oh, wow, they are looking
so great.

Looking like a vision in pink.

Kelsey, let me
get an interview.

Kelsey, you look gorgeous
as always.

You're a lucky man, Austin.

Aw.

Kelsey,
two albums in two years.

What keeps you motivated?

Honestly,
this guy right here.

The truth is,
we inspire each other.

[chuckles]

[cheering]

Sounds like the fans agree.

[upbeat music]

Hey, babe. Do you mind?

No, of course not.

I'm Max Carter,
here on the red carpet

with Kelsey and Austin,

and we will see
if Academy voters

agree with the fans.

You guys be good
tonight, all right?

Listen to Gigi.

What time are you
coming home?

You will be fast asleep
by the time I get home, okay?

But what about
the noise in our closet?

She thinks there's a monster.

Okay, monster's gone.

And trust me,
it is not coming back.

Not with that monster spray.

You guys have nothing
to worry about.

You girls are safe.

Don't worry about your mom.
She's a hero.

And any monster that comes up
against me in court,

guilty as charged.

And how about we bring home
some fortune cookies?

Okay, I guess
we decided on Chinese, huh?

Okay, be good, girls.

Thank you, Gigi.

♪ I'm on fire, on fire

♪ There's only reason to wait,
and I made it through ♪

Baby, come on.

Hey, guys.

- Do this. Ah!
- Hey.

Yo, come here.

- Come get next to me, girl.
- All right.

- I love this lighting.
- Let's do it. All right.

Okay.

- I like that one.
- Baby, come on.

Get in the picture. Come on.

- Don't tell me what to do!
- Ow!

And how about you put on
some clothes next time?

Yo, fam, chill!

Screw you.

Little bitch!

You okay?

Yeah, I'm good.

Think you got room
for gelato?

I know a place right
up the block from here.

- Ooh.
- Come on.

Austin! Ouch!

Let's go.

Austin! Ow!

[indistinct arguing]

Let me go.

I mean it.

[groans]

Yo, you good?

You whack job.
You want to go? Go.

You want to go?

Go.

[tense music]

Hey. Hey, hey, hey.

Excuse me, miss?

Excuse me, miss?

Hey, hey. Is everything okay?

I'm a police officer.
Are you okay?

Oh, it's nothing.

My boyfriend and I
just got in a fight.

Drama in the limo?

Yeah.

He ripped your dress.

Oh, yeah, he just...
He got a little drunk.

Was it... is there somebody
that we can call for you?

Uh, I can call an Uber.

Why don't you let us
give you a ride?

I don't really
want to impose.

Nah, it's not a problem.

- The car's right there. Come on.
- Yeah.

[phone buzzing]

Austin again.

Give it a rest, dude.

It might be a good idea
for both of you to cool off.

This is what we do.

We fight, make up.

It's our foreplay.

Austin calls it "five play."

Sorry to involve you.

- Yeah, it's not a problem.
- Here.

Give us a call any time
if you need help.

[suspenseful music]

[♪]

Hey, Amanda.
You did everything you could.

Why does it not
feel like enough?

[♪]

[dramatic music]

[♪]

.

A greasy taco bag.

Thank you, Fin.
I already had breakfast.

Your little rescue
left this in my car.

Who, Muncy?

She's a millennial.

They're all entitled.

Well, she should
feel entitled

to getting my car detailed
and filling it up with gas.

You're the sergeant, Fin.
Straighten her out.

Me?

You're the one that
wanted her here.

And I want her to stay,
so I can't piss her off.

Door is closed.
What do you think

they're talking about?

Well, judging by
the takeout bag...

Tell me you at least
gassed up the car.

What the hell
is Kelsey Jones doing here?

You listen to that crap?

She sang the national anthem
at the Jets game.

Kelsey.

- Hey.
- Hey.

I didn't think you
knew who I was.

Yeah, I didn't want
to bring it up last night,

but yeah, my daughter
is a huge fan.

[suspenseful music]

Are you okay?

I think...

I think I need to
talk to someone.

Kelsey, this is my captain.

I explained your situation.

Hey.

I appreciate you
listening to me.

I... I don't want to
cause any trouble.

Oh, we're here to help.

So Detective Rollins
tells me that your boyfriend

may have assaulted you.

Yeah, last night.

Okay, you want
to tell me what happened?

He grabbed me,
pulled me into his lap

in the back of the limo.

He ripped my dress
in front of his friends.

I mean, then, we got home,
he wanted to have sex.

I said no.

Well, then,
he couldn't get it up,

and he had so much rage.

And he threw me on the bed,
and I was...

I was really scared.

And then he passed out. So.

I... I don't know, I guess
he didn't really do anything.

Well, from what
you described,

if he touched you in a way

that you didn't want
to be touched, that...

That is a crime.

I don't want him
to go to jail.

I just... I don't want him
to do it again.

So how about
we can investigate,

and then you can decide later
whether or not

you want to file
a police report?

I'm done covering for him.

You know, maybe it's best
that you don't go home tonight.

Is there somebody else
that you can stay with?

I can call my mom.

If I tell her
I'll take her shopping,

she'd probably be
on the next flight.

Well, in the meantime,
maybe stay at a hotel.

Okay.

- Okay.
- I'm sorry.

I think some paparazzi
followed me here.

Is there a back exit?

Yeah, of course.

[♪]

Yeah, I drove Kelsey
and Austin last night.

What, she called
the cops on him?

Yeah, any reason
she might have done that?

Well, she says she was
assaulted in your limo,

so that kind of
makes you a witness.

I don't want to get involved.

So they did get in a fight?

Look, they might be in
their late 20s on the outside,

but inside,
they're just kids who

can't handle their emotions.

And you add in money, fame,
constant validation...

Right. We get that.

So what happened?

All I want to say,
they need a timeout.

Excuse me.

Kelsey, call me back now.

Look, this is between
me and Kelsey.

Well, actually,
it's between us and Kelsey.

But I do want to hear
your side of it.

Whatever she told you
is a lie.

So her dress
just ripped itself?

She threw
a champagne bottle at me.

I could have lost an eye.

Was that before or after
you threw her down on the bed?

[laughs]

You think
this is funny, Mr. Boyer?

SVU takes these kinds
of allegations very seriously.

You know who else
is gonna take this seriously?

My lawyer.

These "he said, she said"
celebrity cases,

they're difficult to prosecute.

He's gonna hire the best
attorney that money can buy.

So we don't even try?

She's a victim.

Rollins, nobody's saying
that she wasn't victimized.

All I'm saying is, he's
claiming he's a victim, too.

This is gonna come down
to a popularity contest

just to get a jury to convict.

But it is doable, as long as
Kelsey's on board to testify.

Rollins, have you
heard from her?

[suspenseful music]

Rollins?

Have you heard
from our Nashville songbird?

No, I'll give her a call.

[♪]

Kelsey is a big star now,
but she is a small-town girl.

She grew up in a trailer park
in Kentucky.

You add to that a legacy
of domestic violence...

Well, what I learned
on social media today, Austin,

he didn't have it easy,
either, you know?

Father was an alcoholic.
His mother's in jail.

I mean, it makes sense that
his love language is turmoil.

Opposites attract.
Dysfunction attracts harder.

- You see this?
- And in entertainment news,

Austin Boyer and Kelsey Jones
just made an announcement.

Austin bought her off
with a proposal.

[sighs] And a tough case
just got impossible.

Oh, my God.
[screaming]

Hey.
What's going on, you guys?

What... what...
What's the matter?

Billie's right.
There is a monster.

No.

Mommy, why do you have a gun?

Mommy, you're scaring us!

- [crying]
- It's okay, girls.

Mommy, is it gone?

Amanda.

[apprehensive music]

Mommy, stop.

[♪]

[♪]

It's gorgeous, isn't it?

It's... it's big.

That's for sure.

Austin and I talked.

I definitely do not want
to pursue charges.

He's using this engagement
as a sick attempt

to distort your reality.

It looks like it's working.

Every song on my last album
is about Austin.

How am I supposed to perform
those songs

- if I have him arrested?
- So this is about your career?

Austin and I are in love.

And he's... he's working
on his anger.

Well, next time...

There's not gonna be
a next time.

Kelsey,
we're just asking you to...

To think about it, okay?

[apprehensive music]

Take that in.

Oh, my little songbird is
supposed to be on vocal rest.

Whoo, she always says that
when she wants me to shut up.

Hi. I'm Lilah.

I'm Kelsey's mother.

Would you ladies
like some wine?

Mom, they are
police officers.

Well, I know that.
I'm just trying to be polite.

Oh, we're good. Thank you.

Suit yourselves.

Kelsey's my everything.

Did you even see her ring?

Bro, that rock is sick.

No doubt.

Yeah, that's got to be,
what, a five-carat apology?

She always this cynical
about love?

Only when it's fake.

[suspenseful music]

Everything's gonna be
perfect between us.

Once her mom leaves.

By the way,
thanks to whichever one of you

told Kelsey to call that bitch.

Don't get me wrong.

I do not think that Austin is
healthy for my little Kelsey,

but mama lion is here now.

We appreciate
your concern, Mrs. Jones.

You should know,
this kind of course of control,

it doesn't have an endpoint.

Victims have a hard time
seeing the abuse.

Austin and I are talking
about making

- an album together.
- [shushes] Baby, vocal rest.

Kelsey...

We want you to know
that we're here for you.

And if you need help,
we're here,

or if you change your mind
about pressing charges,

you call us any time.

[♪]

Mom's a piece of work.

That kid should be in therapy,
not forced into silence.

A lot of crooked branches
on the family tree.

I ought to know.

Speaking of which, how are
the girls handling everything?

Why?
What did Carisi tell you?

Nothing.

That guy is either plain
stupid, or he's in denial.

Yeah, he did offer tickets
to his tour.

Right, yeah.

I'd rather pass a kidney stone
through my ears.

You two good?

Yeah, all good.

Ah, so the diva
doesn't want to throw

her boyfriend in jail, huh?

Ah, as of right now, no,
she doesn't want to pursue.

Yeah, I'm not surprised
after I saw that rock.

Hey, Muncy,
there are no perfect victims.

There are no
perfect investigators.

Oh, believe me.
I know I'm far from perfect.

Look, I realize that it
wasn't your choice to be here.

Are you having
second thoughts?

Not yet.

You won't.

I like your confidence.

And if you are planning
on sticking around,

you might want to invest
in a... in a blazer.

I'm going to speak to Muncy.

You know, I would
actually hold off for now.

I just gave her a little bit
of wardrobe advice,

and I don't want
to overload her.

Captain,
I'm sorry to interrupt.

Austin Boyer
is here to see you.

Go ahead and have a seat.

Thank you
for meeting me, Captain.

I just want to assure you
that what happened between me

and Kelsey won't happen again.

Okay.

Well, I'm glad to hear that.

And my lawyer
says the charges

still haven't been dropped.

Why you're really here.

[laughs] Can you
blame a guy for trying?

I want to do the right thing.

And I appreciate that,
Austin,

but it's not up to you,
or Kelsey, or me.

It's up to the DA now.

I went to my
first meeting today.

I want to get sober.

You know, we all
have choices to make.

And the kind of change
that you're talking about,

real change, Austin,
has less to do

with what you put
in the glass and more

to do with emotional maturity.

Now, I'm guessing that
you didn't have

the greatest role models
growing up.

My advice to you
is whatever it is

that you were taught
about being a man,

do the opposite.

Let me guess, Austin was here
doing damage control?

You know, I think that
he actually wants to heal.

Well, if he figures that out,
I'll buy his self-help book.

Detective Rollins.

Whoa.

Lilah, slow down.

- Take it easy, Mrs. Jones.
- No one's listening to me.

I'm telling you.
He hurt my baby.

She called me crying.
I came right over.

She wants
to cause trouble again.

It's what she does.

Stay out of our business!

Hey, what... what happened?

You need to be locked up!

You're the one that
needs to be locked up,

you psycho-ass, bipolar bitch!

Stop calling me that!

Whoa, whoa, hey!
[glass shatters]

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

Okay, both of you
are coming with us.

- What? I'm under arrest?
- You want to be?

Go ahead. Take her away.

She's not exactly
going alone, cowboy.

Come on.

[tense music]

Austin and I got
into a fight at the restaurant.

It was my mother's fault.

Tell us what happened.

Austin thought that
I took my mother's side,

and so he left
the restaurant angry.

And by the time we got home,

it was a full-blown war.

A physical one?

He got what
he wanted this time.

I... I tried to fight him off.

I said no.

Austin raped me.

[♪]

Austin was flirting
with that waitress,

and Kelsey was just pretending
that she didn't mind.

But you did.

I minded for her.

Sometimes diamonds
just make a girl go blind.

Her mother called me
a pathetic little prick,

loudly, in front of everyone.

Did she have a reason?

Yeah, I was being nice
to the waitress.

The girl's a fan.
Is that a crime?

Well, how about when you
and Kelsey got home?

Austin kept calling
my mother names.

And he was going at her.

He was pretty drunk.

To be fair,
I had some drinks too.

Well, that...
That doesn't matter.

So how did it escalate?

We both were
pretty turned on.

Things got kind of rough.

That would cause the bruises?

Part of our foreplay,
dial it up a notch.

We fight, tear each other's
clothes off, have hot sex.

Oh, so you did have sex?

Did he do or say
anything afterwards?

He just got up,

went to the balcony
for a smoke.

[tense music]

Like nothing was wrong.

[knock at door]

Austin's lawyer is here.

I'm assuming you've
Mirandized my client.

We did.

He said he wanted
to explain what happened.

Austin, not another word.

He admitted to rough sex.

And Kelsey insists
it was not consensual.

Rollins took her
to get a rape kit.

Mother confirms her story.

And we're sure Kelsey
is not gonna backtrack again?

Well, let's say
that she doesn't.

Do we have enough?

Admission from him,
victim's word, outcry witness?

Yeah, arrest him.

In the meantime, wish me luck.

The DA's office
is already getting calls.

Oh, the paparazzi
took a photo of Austin

in the back of the squad car.

Charges of rape one, sexual
assault one, and rape three.

How do you plead?

Not guilty, Your Honor.

The people on bail?

100,000 and the defendant
surrenders his passport.

My client isn't
a flight risk.

He's a highly
recognizable public figure

who couldn't hide if he tries

and only wants to prove
his innocence.

We also request
no photography, Your Honor.

Freedom of the press.

I'm aware of the law.

Details of this case
have already gone viral.

Mr. Boyer has over
40 million followers online.

The complainant
has almost as many.

I'm warning both parties
to stay off social media,

but I can't ban the press.

Bail is set at 100,000.

Passport surrendered.

Mr. Carisi,
I'm Austin's father.

How can I help you?

Austin's not guilty of what
you're charging him with.

He's a drunk.

That's all.

It's a curse he gets from me.

People wind up in this court
because of their choices,

Mr. Boyer, not their excuses.

[cheering]

Austin, did you do this?

My client intends to prove
his innocence in court.

Austin, what do you say
to your fans?

Thank you for your support,
and trust me.

The truth will come out.

The circus begins.

How's... how's Kelsey doing?

Benson and I convinced her
and her media consultant

- not to go on the offensive.
- That's great.

That's great.
I'll see you at home?

Uh. Uh.

The girls are still
with my mom.

You mind if I wait?

It's... it's gonna be late.

I'm prepping for trial.

I don't want
to be alone right now.

Of course.

But I'm gonna bore the hell
out of you within a half hour.

Boring sounds really good.

It's about all I can
handle right now.

Kelsey called me at my hotel.

She could barely talk,
she was crying so hard.

And I immediately
jumped into a cab.

And when you got to the
apartment, what did you see?

Kelsey was in the bedroom,

and Austin was drunk, angry.

And my little girl told me that
he had sexually assaulted her.

The room was a wreck.

Kelsey's bruises,
her nightgown...

I just knew.

Thank you.

Mrs. Jones, has your daughter
ever told you something

you don't believe?

Defense exhibit A,
a police report filed in 2015

in Maysville, Kentucky.

Can you contextualize that
for the jury?

[scoffs] Kelsey called
the cops on my boyfriend

at the time, Dennis... Bruce.

Alleging?

That he molested her.

It was a... it was
a misunderstanding.

She was 17 years old,
and she was angry at me

for not going to LA with her

to audition for some teen soap.

So you didn't believe her?

Of course not.
I read it in her journal.

That thing was full of lies.

- Objection.
- Sustained.

She would write made-up
stories in that journal

all the time just to mess
with me because

she knew I was snooping.

Your Honor.

Sustained.
Jury will disregard.

Nothing further.

[suspenseful music]

[♪]

Kelsey, are you
lying about Austin?

- What? What do they mean?
- Back up.

Why does everybody
suddenly hate me?

Not another word
to the press.

Not another word.

Baby, they made me say
those things in there.

What things?

Focus on your testimony.

[reporters clamoring]

Austin and I were together
for three years.

We connected through music.

You got engaged,
but then you broke it off.

Why was that?

Our relationship
had always been turbulent,

but recently, things got worse.

He was verbally
and physically abusive,

and I admit, I was too.

What about the night
in question?

Well, we got in a fight
at dinner.

And when we got home,

I was too angry to have sex.

And he physically overpowered
and raped me.

My mother called the police.

Now you had been
to the police before

with a complaint
against the defendant.

Yes, he assaulted me
in a limo.

But you decided
not to cooperate.

Why?

I thought he would change.

Thank you.

So it's safe to say
you changed your mind

about the prior
alleged assault?

Yes.

The night he gave you a ring?

That had nothing
to do with it.

The timing was convenient.

What will it take
to change your mind this time?

Six carats, seven?

- Objection.
- I just wanted his love.

- You're a liar!
- Your Honor.

You're a liar!

- Why are you lying?
- I did love him.

Why are you
lying about Austin?

- I do love him.
- Bailiff, get her out of here.

- Bailiff.
- He would never hurt you.

- What is wrong with you?
- Bailiff!

Why are you trying
to hurt him?

Court's in recess.

[♪]

That's her!

She had Austin arrested.

What is wrong with you?

Why are you lying
about him, huh?

Why are you taking her side?

Why are you lying about Austin?

What did he ever do to you?

Austin would never
hurt anybody.

He wouldn't hurt a fly.

What's wrong with you, huh?

Why are you lying about him?

[sighs]

Your Honor, I'm asking that
we try this case

in a courtroom
and not on social media.

My client is also
a public figure.

Your client's supporters
showed up wearing red pants.

Liar, liar, pants on fire?
This is ridiculous.

Mr. Carisi feels their

wardrobe choices
are tainting the jury.

If that's the case, Your Honor,
we move for a mistrial.

I'm not granting
a mistrial,

and I can't
close the courtroom.

But I can ban
misbehaving individuals,

including ones
wearing red pants.

We both know
it's not the cameras.

This never should
have gone to trial.

Then tell your client
to take a deal.

These TikTok trolls,
they're raking up

millions of likes
off of smearing me.

- Maybe stay off your phone.
- So Carisi got the judge

to keep the fans
out of the courtroom.

It doesn't matter.
My career is already ruined.

You know,
you need to toughen up.

Detective Rollins.

Can you give us a minute?

My son, Austin, always
had an addiction problem...

Drinking, drugs, women.

He forgot to add
media attention.

He's not helping
his son's case at all.

[crowd shouting]

Yeah, Austin! Yeah!

Austin, we're on your side!

I guess we all
have our issues.

Speaking of which, Amanda.

Yeah. Don't worry.

I'm driving her to therapy
from now on.

Okay.

I'll wait outside
if I have to.

That's real love.

Yeah, it's mostly
about running errands.

[crowd booing]

Should she be here?

She asked if she could
come to the courtroom

for Austin's testimony.

I told her, not a great idea,
but I couldn't stop her.

Couldn't or didn't want to?

I'm the first to admit
that our relationship

has been unmanageable...

Verbal abuse.

It's gotten physical
on both sides.

But I did not
sexually assault Kelsey.

I never have,
and I never would.

Thank you, Austin.

Mr. Boyer,
that night at the restaurant,

you and Kelsey
got into a fight?

Yes.

And that fight continued
when you got home?

Yes, I've said all that.

You smacked her around
a little bit.

Objection.

It's the defendant's
own words, Your Honor.

I'll allow.

Yeah, it got physical.

You pushed her
against the wall.

- Yeah.
- You threw her on the bed.

It's what we do.

Yeah, it's what you call
"five play," right?

The jury's seen photos
of the bruises.

Yeah, okay.

Was tearing her nightgown
a part of that?

Yes, by accident.

And when you forced yourself
on her sexually...

She's my fiancée.

[tense music]

So what?

That means she can't say no?

You held her down.

You ripped off her nightgown.
She was pinned.

Does that not sound like
the definition of rape to you?

I know how it sounds,
but context matters.

Oh, so your father
was wrong then, huh?

- You're nothing like him?
- That's right.

A man who drank,
who beat your mother.

That's a family pattern
that provides

a context all its own.

Maybe you don't know
what normal is.

Objection.

I am not my father.

Kelsey, I never meant
to hurt you.

I swear to God.

You want me to say it out loud?

I was controlling,
I lost my temper.

I attacked you.

I'm sorry.

There, I said it. I'm sorry.

More than my father
ever gave me.

[♪]

No further questions.

He said he was sorry,
and you saw him.

He really meant it.

I'm sure that he does.

Look, I want this
over with, okay?

I want my life
to go back to normal.

The DA can't just
drop the charges.

And his lawyer
won't take a deal.

Kelsey,
he sexually assaulted you.

Now, whether or not
you choose to forgive him,

that is up to you, right?

Every survivor
heals differently.

But what happens to Austin,
that's up to a jury now.

This is a classic case
of "he said, she said,"

and the "she"
has a history of lying,

a history of confabulating
accusations about men.

My client isn't perfect,
by any means.

He may be guilty
of certain things,

but not the crime
he's been accused of,

despite what he said
on the stand

in an emotional attempt
to win Kelsey Jones back.

Make no mistake.

What you witnessed here
in this courtroom

are two people
who have suffered

grievous and unbearable
childhood trauma.

But you also witnessed Austin
Boyer confess on the stand.

Yeah, he needs help.

And I sincerely hope he gets
the help that he needs...

[tense music]

In prison.

Because past demons
and claims of love

are not, and never will be,
an excuse for sexual assault.

[♪]

Okay, thank you.

- Yeah.
- Hey, you got a minute?

Of course.

What's up?

I know I've been a bit
off my game lately.

Well, for what it's worth,
Rollins, at the end of the day,

you off your game
is ten times better

than most detectives on theirs.

I pulled my gun in Jesse and
Billie's room the other night.

[apprehensive music]

They were right there.

I... I was...

I was pointing at a monster
in their closet.

Did you get him?

Not yet, but I will.

Good.

Has the jury
reached a verdict?

We have, Your Honor.

On the charge of rape
in the first degree,

we find the defendant
not guilty.

Sexual assault in the first,
not guilty.

Rape in the third degree,
we find the defendant guilty.

[♪]

Okay. It's okay. Go ahead.

The jury did not find
Austin Boyer guilty

of the two more serious charges
of sexual assault,

splitting the baby with a
guilty verdict on the charge

of rape in the third degree,
a felony,

which will also land
the superstar entertainer

on the National Sex Registry.

You proud of yourself?

Step back.

[crowd shouting]

How you doing?

What's gonna happen
to Austin?

Well, that's up to the judge.

He'll either do prison time
or probation

if he agrees to abide
by certain conditions...

Anger management, rehab.

And what do I do?

How am I supposed to tour?

How am I supposed
to sing those songs?

Those songs were
all about our love.

Kelsey, what you two had,
that wasn't love.

[solemn music]

And you're gonna write
new songs.

You know, you might want to try

to be alone for a while.

You need to learn
to love yourself

before you can love
anyone else.

[♪]

Just so you know,
we're planning to appeal.

That's your right.

I can recommend leniency
from the judge,

as long as your client
sticks to his commitment.

I'll do the prison time.

I just want this to be over.

We don't always
get what we want.

We're appealing.

Do you think Kelsey
will take me back

if I do anger management,
all of that?

Son.

It's over.

And I don't know
who you've been taking

your romantic advice from,
but I would seriously consider

losing them from your life.

[♪]

I never thought

I was capable of having

a healthy relationship.

And now that I have one...

You're afraid
you're gonna mess it all up.

I'm afraid
that I already have.

Really, you haven't.

Are you sure?

Look...

Everybody's got monsters
in their closet.

The question is...

What do you want
to do about it?

I want to evict
the little bastard.

[♪]

It's gonna be okay.

Sure.
