"Okay!" "Okay!" "I'm coming!" " Where's my daughter?" " You can't..." "Where is she?" "Does anybody know where Alicia is?" "Sorry." "Does anybody know where she is?" "Where is my daughter?" "She's in her room." " Look, I don't think that you should..." " Alicia!" " You're not allowed up there." " Out!" "Out of my way!" "Alicia!" "Excuse me...." "Alicia, open this door!" " Who is it?" " Alicia!" " She doesn't want to talk to you." " I am her mother." " Go away, Mom!" " You can't come in!" "Open this door!" " I'm here." " Go away!" " We're going to go to the hospital." " I told Kevin not to call you." "Alicia, listen to me." " It's nothing." "Leave me alone." " This is not nothing!" " Miss Carter, I think that..." " Alicia!" " Stop, you're embarrassing me!" " We have to get you checked out!" " Alicia!" " No, it's nothing!" "Alicia!" "Alicia!" "Stop!" "Listen to me!" " No, it's nothing!" " We have to go to the police." "No!" "No!" "No!" "Yes, Alicia!" "Alicia!" "Let go!" "Alicia!" "Let go!" "Shush!" "Shush!" "It's okay." "It's okay, baby." "It's okay." "I'm sorry." "Please don't cry." "Danny, I need you to be honest, totally honest, does this sweater make me look motherly?" " Not matronly, motherly." " Honey, you look great." "I think this cookie thing's too much." "No!" "No!" "No!" "It's perfect." "These flats are killing me." " Mrs Sless?" " Jessica." "Jess." " Sandra Bladow." " Please come in." "Welcome." "I actually kept my last name, King." " You're Danny?" " Yes, yes." "Hi." "Jess King." "Not like I'm zealous." "Is this where you see yourself having a baby?" "No!" "We used to have a house, but..." "Yeah!" "Yeah!" "This is more of a transitional place for us." " Transitional?" "From what?" " We plan on buying another one soon, with walls." "You know, for rooms." "And you know, more green space, for..." " cookie?" " Let's sit down." " Sorry." "We're a bit nervous." " It's not uncommon." "We want you to think we're good people." "This is the first of four home visits." "First thing you need to be aware of," "I don't work for you." "It's not my job to get you a baby." "Okay." "In fact, if I can talk you out of adoption, I'm happy to do it." "My job is to advocate for the child." "That's the only person I ca..." "That's great, that's amazing." " May I finish?" " Of course." "There is one other thing..." "It's just that we have tried so hard to have a baby." "Yes, I'm sure it's all very sad." "Look, let's be clear about one other thing." "Adoption is not a backup plan." "We know!" "We do know that." "I need your assurance that you've stopped trying to have a baby." "Baby, yes." "We haven't stopped trying to have sex." "Yes, we can't have a child together" "We're medically incompatible, so it's..." "So you've stopped, then." "Good." "Today, I'm just going to get to know you and then, I will leave you each with this questionnaire to fill out before our second visit." "Now, if you lie or obfuscate on any of our conversations or on this document, you should know with absolute certainty" "I will find out, so show me your warts before someone else does." "Sorry." "I'm just going to..." " How long have you two been married?" " Two years." " First marriage for both?" " This is my third." " Three's the charm?" " Hope so." " So do I." "You know, I know two years doesn't seem like very long, but we've actually been through a lot together." " Not that much." " Busy lives!" "Sorry." "Chief, this is not the best time." "Just a second." " I got a can of worms down here." " Chief, can I call you back?" "Fifteen years ago in Winnipeg, a woman testified against her rapist." " Vicious crime." " Okay, Chief, seriously!" "I cannot talk about a vicious rape right now." "Man made threats at sentencing, the victim and her daughter were put in a new identity program for their own protection." " Almost done." " Two nights ago, the woman's daughter was sexually assaulted." " Mother insists it was the same man." " Any evidence linking the two assaults?" "That's what I want you to find out." "What we do know is Winnipeg screwed up." "The victims' identities were published on an archival website." "Those bas... bad... people." " I need you here, King." " Okay." " Just as soon as I finish this..." " Mother's waiting, daughter's with Hicks from sex crimes." "Get in here." "Now!" "Can we..." "Honey, can you..." "Can we reschedule?" "Is that an option?" "Cookie?" "KING S01 Ep10" " Alicia Pratta" "It's a gong show!" "The chief in Winnipeg is an old friend, he's a good man." "...who's going to be looking for a new job soon." "You know, that whole service could be facing a crippling lawsuit, not to mention..." "That mother and daughter might have been assaulted by the same maniac." "We don't know that." " It's a gong show, sir." " King, not today." "Please." " How's Marie?" " Hanging in." " You know I'm here, right?" " How about you solve this case and explain to me why you're three inches shorter." " You noticed." " I'm too old for a growth spurt." "So?" "Flats." "Don't look down, sir." "Mother's name is Veronica Pratta." "She's in my office." "Why can't I be with her?" "Your daughter's giving a statement." " She did that at the hospital!" " That was a medical exam." "And rape kit, I know, I was there." "I don't understand why" "I'm being left out of this." "Alicia's an adult and we need to treat her..." "And I am her mother!" "And given how you people screwed up..." "Those people made a mistake and I'm here to make it better." "Brittany, this is detective sergeant King." " Awesome to meet you." " Just on our way to a movie." "I wanted to grab some paperwork first." "Day off's canceled, we got a new case." "Call the team in." "Miss Pratta, my office." " Where is my daughter?" " Please have a seat." "Can I get you anything?" "I just want to see Alicia." "I'm at a bit of a disadvantage right now because I don't have your file in front of me, so I don't know the details of your case." "It would help if you could fill me in." "So, what happened 15 years ago?" " I was raped by Jeffrey Carson." " Is Carson Alicia's father?" "No." "He came after." "I don't know who Alicia's father is." "I was 16, I was working the streets." " Was he abusive to Alicia as well?" " No." "He just ignored her." " And the assault?" " He raped me and kicked me unconscious with steel toed boots." "I have Alicia's mitts." "Can we get these to her?" "Thank you." "Five broken ribs, 36 stitches." "Carson said if I went to the cops, he would hurt Alicia and then he'd kill me." "Must've been frightening to testify against him in court." "He got four years!" "A hooker with a meth addiction?" "The jury didn't have much sympathy." "And the new identity program brought you here." "Years!" "Erasing one life, creating another, and now this!" "Miss Pratta, we don't know that Jeffrey Carson is responsible for your daughter's..." "Fifteen years ago that man left me under a bridge to freeze to death." "Two nights ago, my daughter is found under a bridge." "It was him!" " Jenny Hicks!" " King!" "Good to see you." "How's the baby?" "Walking, talking, teething." "It's been 48 hours." "Alicia's showered, washed her clothes." "No DNA." "Nothing." "Does she have any idea who did this?" "Says she doesn't." " Do you believe her?" " Yeah, I do." "My theory right now, she was roofied at a sorority party the night of the assault." " Toc screen will confirm it." " What about Jeff Carson?" "Looking into him just in case, but what are the chances?" "I have to take this." "Let me know what comes up.-..." "Alicia." "Your mom asked me to give you these." "I went missing at Ontario Place when I was ten." "My mother practically had the whole thing shut down." " She cares about you." " She's paranoid." "I'm not going to end up like her." "Alicia..." "I didn't want her to know about this." "Kevin told her." " Is Kevin your boyfriend?" " No, just a friend." "Alicia, I need you to take me back to this party the other night." "I can't remember much..." "Tequila and more tequila." "Then, outside;" "I wanted air." "That's it." "Then I woke up." "I was just cold and there was this... feeling like... stinging." "I was under my coat." "I thought maybe this is what a hangover feels like, but when I stood up, everything hurt." " And where were you?" " Under this bridge." "My mom thinks it's Carson, right?" "There's no way!" "What else do you remember?" "My underpants were in my pocket." "I walked home, had a shower, went to class." "Alicia, I'm going to need you to go back there with us, to the place you woke up after that party." " I feel so stupid!" " This is not your fault." "Your mom's here, she wants to see you." "No." "No way, I can't." "She'll make it about her." "Then how about we call Kevin?" "Maybe he can stop by, pick up your mom, take her home." " How does that sound?" " Fine." "Okay." "Mom's taken care of, let's head out." "Spears and Ingrid, I want you guys to head over to the sorority house." "I want the name of every Neanderthal that was at that party." "My first time inside a sorority house." "Spears?" "I was familiar with a few places a long time ago." "Martin, you and I are heading to the crime scene." "I want you to stay close to Alicia, she's still in shock." "You sure I'm the right person for this?" "Shouldn't it be a woman?" "Nope." "You're my guy." "I'll just be a sec." "Got a minute?" " Not really." " Earlier, with Brittany..." "It was unprofessional." " I apologise." " For what?" "She's cute." "We're just exploring our options." "Sure, good...." "I could adopt your girlfriend!" "She's young enough." "Alicia was so totally drunk." "You know, first time she let loose, which is surprising, right?" " For a girl like her?" " "Like her?"" "Yeah." "Her heritage." "Anyway, it was a huge party," "I lost track of her." "Did you see her leave with anyone?" "No." "She's a bit of a loner." "She's pretty, but she's different." "That can be hard." "We recruited her, right?" "Convinced her to pledge." "It's nice having one different girl." " Do you all live here?" " No." "Not all of us." "There are tests you got to pass." " Tests?" " Like you got to be able to chug a litre of milk with a hot sauce chaser." "There's underwear golf, phonebook fights." "They kill." "Sounds pretty tough." "Yeah." "You got to be able to root out the girls that don't have it." "Sharing a bathroom with ten girls is deadly." "Where can I get a list of the names of the boys at your party?" " Invite page on my profile." " Megan, we believe Alicia may have been drugged by someone at your party." "Probably." " You don't seem surprised." " Everyone gets roofied" " in college." " Everyone?" "Almost." "It's like a rite of passage." "You know, some boy drops drugs in your drink and the next thing you know, you're looking for your bra on the quad." "Does this look familiar?" "I'm right here, you're not alone." "I remember opening my eyes and seeing those arches, above me, like ribs." "You're safe, it's all right." "My mother's going to make me move back in with her." "I still live with my mother." "In some cultures, it's considered normal." " I can't do that again." " I understand that." "Yeah." "Sometimes, it's hard not having a brother or a sister around." " Yeah." " I get it, 'cause I'm a "lonely only"." "Used to have a bunk bed, though." "An only child with a bunk bed?" "That's depressing." "I'd rotate top and bottom, it was fun." " My friends were right." " Right about what?" "Should've had sex before." "The girls at the house were always teasing me about it." "They were obsessed with it, actually." "Megan was always trying to figure out a way to get me to do it." "Figure out a way?" "I wanted my first time to be special." "How stupid is that?" "That's not stupid." "Megan should know that." "We should get you something to eat." "Come on." "Spears." "You interviewed a Megan?" " Yeah, Ingrid did." " Bring her downtown." "You think she has something to do with this?" "Could do." "Ingrid." "The boss thinks one of these girls might have something to do with it, Megan." ""Sharing a bathroom with ten girls is deadly."" "So, Megan." "I think it's so great that you guys let Alicia into your house." "Yeah." "Yeah, she..." "Yeah." "Yeah, I would've loved to have had that opportunity." "I don't know." "You obviously work hard, right?" "That's all it takes." "I must've just missed my chance." "I'm sure you were given another opportunity." "Yeah." "It evens out for sure." "So, Megan," "I have a team back at the house looking through your room right now." "Want to tell us what we might find in there?" "I don't know..." "Books, stuff." "So we're not going to find any drugs of any kind?" " No way." " So when you said being roofied was a rite of passage, what did you mean by that?" "That was just an expression." "My contacts are getting so dry in here." "I slipped it into her purple Jesus, okay?" "We were just trying to help her fit in." "I mean, she made this big production about sex being meaningful, implying we were sluts or whatever." "It's just sex." "Nobody remembers their first time." "Megan." "I'm not going to tell you who the boy is." "He's really sweet and gentle." "I know... like know, you know?" "You know how easy it would be for me to find out the names of every guy you've slept with and haul them in here?" "It... it was Trevor Brigs." "Rugby player." "Alicia thought he was cute!" "I'm not, like, evil." "You could be adopting from that gene pool." "You know that, right?" "Charge her with administering a noxious substance." "Pick up Trevor Brigs." "King." "I found Carson." "Good news." " Not really." " Okay... bad news." "He moved to the city, right after the names were posted on that website." "Jeffrey Carson could have done it." " Alicia." " Hi." "Thanks for waiting." "I have some difficult news." "Your friend Megan..." "and some of the other girls... they drugged you the other night, and they arranged for a boy named Trevor Brigs to have sex with you." "Do you recognise him from that night?" "Sort of." "I kind of knew him from parties." "I'm so sorry, Alicia." "Why would they..." "Why?" "Alicia, listen to me." "You know that feeling you had every time you walked into that house, that you were different?" "You were right." "You are different." "You're better than those girls;" "that's why you felt that way." "Megan and her friends are the worst of the worst." "What's your major, Trevor?" "Poli sci." "I'm going to be a lawyer." "Good!" "Put your prelaw cap on." "We know that Megan drugged Alicia and set her up to have sex with you." "We know that Alicia woke up in a ravine with her underwear in her pocket." "She'd been assaulted." "We also know that you were the last person to see Alicia." "Now, looking at this evidence, what would you advise your client to do in this situation?" "Tell the truth," "Trev." "It's your only chance." "Megan said Alicia liked me, just kind of freaked by guys." "She drugged her so she could get it over with." "I took her back to my place." "She was... out of it." "I took off her underwear, but it just wasn't... hot." "I mean, Alicia's hot when she's, like, in class." "But..." "So..." "I didn't." " Trevor." " She had vomit all over her and it was..." "She was all..." "It wasn't hot." "I put her underwear in her pocket and I helped her back to her house." "Because she wasn't hot." "You're telling me you didn't rape her because she..." "Rape?" "It wasn't rape." "Her friends asked me to." "And you do whatever the girls ask you to." " Sometimes." " Trevor, did..." "Did it even feel wrong at all?" "I couldn't, yeah." "Yeah, what?" "Yeah, it felt wrong." "Am I in trouble?" "You'll be charged with aggravated sexual assault." "You might want to reconsider your career choice." "Geez Louise!" " Sweety!" " Hi." " I don't... get a hug?" " Mom." "Veronica, I wanted to give you an update on your daughter's..." "I brought you celery, peanut butter and raisins." " I don't want celery right now!" " When we spoke on the phone," "I told you that we're very close to making an arrest on your daughter's case..." "Stop." "But there's something else that we've discovered during the course of the investigation that I have to share with you." " Jeff Carson is in the city." " Since when?" " Six months." " Alicia, we are leaving now." "There is no connection to your daughter's assault..." " That doesn't matter." " We have no reason to believe..." " We are leaving tonight." " I told you, I can't do this." " Don't be ridiculous." " I'm moving in with Kevin." "I already asked him," "I'm going to crash on his couch." "Alicia, we talked about this." " No, you talked!" " Let's just calm down." " We are getting a hotel." " You want to do that again, fine!" "I'm not coming." "Can't you help?" "She's of legal age, I'm sorry." " Don't worry about it, Jess." " I just don't want the bad decisions we made when we were 22... 32 to haunt us." " It shouldn't make a difference!" " Honey, we're going to get" " a baby, okay." "Don't panic." " Yeah." "But not, like, any baby." "Not like a morally defective baby like Megan." "Who's Megan?" "The sorority cyborg who roofied my vic." "Okay, we got to go through these questions." "We got to coordinate our lives." "I made a preliminary list..." "We're not going to lie." "We're not going to lie." "They're going to talk to everyone we know anyway." "Crap!" "Crappity crap!" "Crap!" "Crap!" "Switch!" "They'll expect stains on a man's." "Okay." "Okay, I got to tell you something." "What?" "Sit down." "I think you should sit down." "Okay." "Either it's serious, or you're rehearsing how to tell our kid they're adopted." " It's a chip." " A chip." "Yes." "I am familiar." "I've been..." "going to Gamblers Anonymous." "Since when?" "I kind of fell off the wagon." "How much did you lose?" " It doesn't matter." " Danny, don't tell me..." "No, I'm..." "I'm getting help and one step is being honest, so..." "Okay, so back up, Mr Honest." "When did this happen?" "Last week." "Went on a little bender." "No such thing." "A bender's a bender." " A bender means big." " Well, it wasn't that big." "Well, it was big enough to get a chip." "Taylor actually saw me spinning and called me on it, and uh... showed me the light." "Taylor. "The light"!" "It's an expression, honey." "Come on, I mean..." "She hauled me into my first meeting, so..." " Again!" "I repeat, Taylor!" " Look, the important thing is," "It's going to look good on the application, right?" "They were going to find out about my... the gambling anyway, and now, I'm in recovery." "Officially, right?" "So it's all good." " I thought you'd be happy." " If you thought I'd be happy, you would've told me when it happened." " Where are you going?" " For a walk." " I'd like to talk about this." " Call Taylor." "Say we find out that Jeff Carson raped Alicia or someone else did, unless he confesses..." "And why would he?" "There is no way we're going to get a conviction." "Because we've already got the college kids, Megan and Trevor." "This sounds like fun." "I understand all that, but it's our job to try." "The thing is Trevor didn't rape Alicia." "Martin, the rapist's lawyer will throw it to Trevor and say that he did it." "Trevor's lawyer will throw it back and say that the rapist did it." "The cases will drag on for years and we'll lose both convictions." "It's a waste of time." "There are other cases we can win." "Halt this investigation, that's a big win for the rapist." "What if it was your own daughter" " Don't do that.." " Okay.." "I hear you." "I appreciate it, but let's just find this family some truth." "Let's leave getting convictions for later." "Ingrid, take Carson's picture around campus, see if anyone recognizes him." "Okay." "We need to talk to Carson, see what his alibi is." "Without revealing that Veronica or Alicia live in the city." "Is there anything on his sheet we can use?" "There's a long list of break and enters." "We could go in as robbery." "Tell him there was a neighbourhood breaking." "Works for me." "I don't understand." "There have been some break-ins recently and we're just doing a little canvass." "And we notice you've had some similar convictions against you in the past." " Fifteen years ago." " You working these days, Mr Carson?" " Disability." "Pins in my back." " So last week, you were just puttering around the house, then?" " I have my meetings." " Your meetings?" "AA meeting, Friday." "Nine years sober." "Congratulations." "Anything else?" "NA, Tuesday." "Church, Sunday." "Bible study, Wednesday and Saturday nights." "I was saved." "And what about Thursday?" "I was watching TV, spooning my girl all night." " Does she live here too?" " Yes, we're engaged." "Actually, Nancy showed me the light." "Got me diagnosed, too." "Diagnosed?" "I'm bipolar." "I spend a lot of time self-medicating that." "We were watching some reality TV thing, Reptile hoarders..." "And you went to jail for a sexual assault conviction, is that right?" "Why are you asking that?" "I didn't find your name on the sex offender registry." "You moved from Winnipeg how long ago?" " Six months." " I'd want to get on that." " Yeah, for sure." " We can take care of that for you." "Great, fine." "I have no problem with that." "Well, if we could just get Nancy's number to verify, that'd be great." "Yeah, of course." "One more question, Mr Carson, what made you move here?" "Work." "Na..." "Nancy's work..." "transferred work." "He seemed to have really cleaned up his act." "Please." "You don't think people can change?" "I think now he's a sober rapist." "Bring Nancy in," "I want to talk to her, woman to woman." "Taylor!" " Can I talk to you for a sec?" " Sure." " Nice shoes." " Thanks." " Nice hair." " Thanks." "So I'm going to need you to stay out of my personal life." " What?" " Taking Danny to GA." "I can take care of my own family, thanks very much." " He's my partner." " He's my husband." "I was trying to help him." "He was spiraling." "You weren't there." "Danny is in a vulnerable place right now." " What are you implying?" " You're a child." "I'm 26." "You're a child and you're meddling in my marriage." "Yeah?" "We done?" "We'll be done when you promise to stay away from my husband." " Should I call back?" " No." "Go." "I got a guy who identified Carson." "He's been on campus." "I knew it." "Bring him in." "We clear?" "With respect..." "Alicia." "How you doing?" "You okay?" "Yeah, I'm fine." " This is my friend Kevin." " Hi." "This is detective Martin." "I have something that Kevin said" "I should tell you about." "It's important." "Let's go upstairs." "I'm sorry I lied to you." " It's okay, I'm here." " I lied to my mom and you and..." "You just need to tell him." "Take your time, Alicia." "There's nowhere else I need to be but right here with you." "I made a profile page with my old name." " Shannon Greyeyes." " I know I wasn't supposed to." "She just has the two friends," "Me and this girl." "I had those exact same glasses!" "I wear contacts now, cops aren't allowed to wear glasses." "I lost that pair." " Alicia." " When did you post this?" " I guess about seven months ago." " And who's Suzy?" " She said she was my cousin." " Did you tell her where you live?" "She was maybe going to visit this summer." " I don't know why I did it." " You did it because your mother stopped you from ever knowing who you really were." "Did your mother ever mention a cousin Suzy?" "No." "Can you guys excuse us for a second?" "Located the cousin." "Do you think it might be..." "Carson?" "Yeah." "I'm heading down to talk to the fiancée in soft interrogation." "Jeff was in bed, arms around me, as Jesus is my witness." "Well, unfortunately, Jesus can't testify in court." "You're funny." "Now, is this about the sexual assault in his past?" " Why would you ask me that?" " Neighbourhood break-ins?" "I think I would've heard." "What has Mr Carson told you about his past?" "Everything." "We're engaged." "And how did you feel about what he told you?" "He was sick." "I took him to AA, and then church." "We found a lot of peace there." "Nancy, has Mr Carson ever mentioned..." "I have faith that people can change." "You don't need to condone to understand." "With understanding comes forgiveness and forgiveness sets us free." "What would you say if I told you your fiancé hasn't changed?" "That he may have lured a young woman into a very dangerous situation?" "I'd say it wasn't him;" "it was me." "My fiancé's a good man, but he needed to make amends." " Amends?" " We're happy, but his guilt is this giant turd in our punchbowl." "Okay." "He won't get married until he's apologized." "So you tracked her down." "The internet." "You can run, but you can't hide." "People put their ultrasounds online." "There are comments on your existence before you're even formed!" "I pretended to be her cousin because I wanted to get a sense of how stable she was before we..." "Before you what?" "They deserve to know my fiancé is not a threat." " Or you do?" " Pardon?" "I'm thinking you tracked the victims down to see how your fiancé would react." "Because some people don't change, and you wanted to know the truth before you got married." "Mr Carson, before you say anything, we want to apologize." " For what?" " We lied to you." "We're not really with robbery." "We're with the major crimes task force." " Major crimes?" " I do want to say, though that we are very impressed with the way that you've turned" " your life around." " What is this about?" "A sexual assault." "You're a person of interest." "All those steps and going to church." "I have to be honest though, in situations like these, I'm always hopeful," " but I'm rarely surprised." " You don't think that I..." "Let's see if you can surprise me." "When was the last time you saw Jenna Greyeyes?" " Fifteen years ago." " Well." "Not surprised." "Mr Carson, lying is not very Christian, nor is it very nice." "We have a sworn statement that puts you outside her sorority house recently." "Can you tell me what an unemployed man with pins in his back would be doing there?" "I need to make amends." "Thou shalt not stalk young women." " I wasn't stalking her." " Wasn't stalking who?" "Jenny, Alicia, whatever." "Fifteen years ago, you made some pretty serious threats." "Do you remember making those threats?" " I was angry then, sick." " But you feel better now?" "I let Jesus into my heart and I needed to show them that as proof so they would know I would never harm them." "I'm not a religious person;" "I grew up on bad TV and rock and roll." "I did not..." "I did not lay a hand on that girl." "Is..." " Is that what this..." " I believe in truth." "You seek forgiveness from God." "I need to know the truth in order to find peace." "Years ago, I made a mistake, and all I was doing was trying to make whatever pain I caused go away." "That's all." "You know what's creepy?" "It's all about you." "Not God or your steps." "This is all about what you need, and I think you need revenge." "You expect me to believe that you're some angel who just hangs out outside of sorority houses waiting to tell young women that you're not a threat?" "You expect me to believe that the whole reason you moved here with lady Jesus Saves was to tell them that they're safe?" "I don't buy it." "And I don't think a jury will either." "I think God just told me to get a lawyer." " You're letting him go?" " I have to; he won't confess." "I'm sorry, there's not enough to charge him." "You said you were going to make this better." "What's it going to take to put this man away?" "One of us to end up dead?" "We're going to continue to investigate, we'll keep an eye on him." "That's not going to matter." "Honey, we have to go." "Okay?" "I'm sorry, but we have to go." "Can't believe this is happening." " I know." " You can't go." "So I won't even be able to text you?" "No." "So we start again." "If there's anything I can do before you leave..." "Alicia's best friend since grade two." " Backup glasses?" " No, my favourite pair." "How many pairs do you have?" "I don't want to be rude, but..." "You're like in your thirties." "You gotta move out of your mom's house." " I don't live with my mom, Alicia." " I thought you said..." " My mother lives with me." " Sorry." "I..." " That's okay." " Alicia." "She can't just quit school, throw her entire life away!" "What if Carson wasn't responsible for this?" "Were you at the party the other night?" "Did you see anything?" "No." "I just stayed home, watched a movie." "What movie did you watch?" "I don't know, I always fall asleep before anything happens." "What's up?" "It's Kevin, Alicia's friend." "I think he's hiding something." " What?" " He had a pair of glasses, lost them." "He's wearing the pair of glasses now, calls them his favourite." "It's just that something doesn't line up, and his alibi, it's weak." "So..." "Anyway, it's worth a look." "All right, listen up, we're looking for these glasses or a part of them." "Also, recheck the tire tracks, footprints, anything." " I ran into Taylor." " Yeah?" "How is she doing?" "You attacked her in the washroom?" " It was a discussion." " She and Danny, they're partners, Jess." "They talk, like us." " We slept together." " She was trying to help him." "Since when does Taylor cry on your shoulder?" " Stick to the point." " I'm telling Brittany." "So you think Kevin really did it?" "He lied about not being at the party." "Checked Megan's invite page." "Could be another reason, he seems to really love her." "Exactly." "Alicia was drugged up, out of it, flirting." "Trevor was all over her." "Kevin's watching, getting jealous." "I know guys like that, who sit outside a house for hours, waiting, hurting." "So, he saw Trevor drop her off at home, he brings her here." " And lost his glasses in the process." " Or part of them." "Well, if he was smart, he'd buy another pair." "Call me if you get anything." "All right." "Most women tend to look past guys like you, Kevin;" "big mistake." "Adam Ellis, my best friend." "He got me." "Sometimes, I feel like he was the one." "I just couldn't get past his glasses." "I've been married three times, and I think if I'd have married that guy, that guy like you, everything would've turned out differently." "I'd be happy." "Didn't find the glasses under the bridge." "It's okay." "I picked up a pair at the mall." " You're unbelievable." " Hasn't denied they're his." "You don't have a case without a confession." " I love me a challenge." " Tell me about it." "Sometimes, men and women get their signals mixed." "It's confusing." "Sometimes, I want something, sometimes I don't." "Like chocolate." "Or when I was younger, boys." "I was so confused about boys." "I was confused, I can't imagine how confused they were." "Got me into a lot of trouble, mixed signals." "You know what I mean?" "Kevin." "If you made a mistake, if you read a situation wrong, the first thing you have to do to make it better is to tell the truth." "She was just hanging off of him." "I waited." "He just dumped her on the porch." "I got her to her feet." "She had that bruise on her face." "She wasn't making much sense." "I wanted her so badly." "And I kissed her." "She was right there." "But then after, I..." "And she just..." "She just laid there." "And I realized what I'd done." "She had told me what happened to her mom." "And I didn't want Alicia to know it was me, so I put her jacket over her, so that she'd be okay." "It was almost five, and joggers come through there, so..." "I knew she'd be okay." "Alicia won't ever forgive me." "Will she?" "I need you to sign these papers." "I could've mailed them to you." "I thought you'd be gone by now." "Alicia's staying." "She wants to stay in school." "She doesn't want to run." "I've never seen that kind of strength." "You raised her." "You thinking of staying too?" "She thinks if I let Carson apologize, he'll leave us alone." " Do you think that?" " What do you think?" "I don't know that you can live without fear once you have a child." "I just have to learn to be okay with it." " I'm terrified of the fear." " Don't be." "It feels a lot like love." "Thank you." "I have to be honest," " you're not ideal candidates." " We're not?" " Not even close." " Not even close?" "If only good-looking was a criteria" "Your jobs are all-consuming;" "your hours, unpredictable;" "your marriage..." "You've got some unresolved issues, and a lousy track record." "Danny, your pursuit of treatment is admirable, but you've only begun." " You're an addict." " I'm recovering." "I'm not saying it's impossible, it just depends on your time frame." "I'd say five to seven years, that's being optimistic, at which point, your age..." " You're full of..." " Jess, don't." "Our jobs mean that we have flexibility." "Danny going to GA is a sign of health and commitment." "My marriages, life experience." "We're already good parents, we just don't have a kid yet, and when we get one, we're going to be incredible, and you can't tell me otherwise." "That's the first thing I've heard out of your mouth that I believe." "You put that passion in your cover letter." "You really want to have a baby, you have to change your work hours." "Someone needs to be here." "Because honestly, right now," "I don't see any room in your life for a child." "Good luck." "Danny, listen." " It was stupid." " No, we're good." "You and me, we're already good." "Danny, listen to me." "There is room here for a kid, for us." "Don't lose faith."
