[REBECCA GODFREY] On its face, this
story is the opposite of a fairy tale.


[♪ OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

But that's only until you consider
what fairy tales are really about.




Girls punished for selfishness

or for no reason at all.

They're tales of horror...

and wonder.

Of innocence and beauty.

[FENCE RATTLING]

Of v*olence and sin.



In fairy tales,
there's danger everywhere.

- Beware the troll under the bridge.

- [BUZZER BLARING]
- [DOOR SLAMS]

- [PEOPLE CLAMORING]
- [BANGING]

But in November of 1997,

the danger had never looked
quite like this before.


This story would haunt
the island for years to come.


It forever changed a fact
that once seemed so immutable,


so fundamental.

Young girls in Victoria were the ones
we were supposed to protect
.

Saw what, Connor?

I guess there was, like,

And?

I don't... [SIGHS] I thought
they were just makin' sh*t up.

Okay? But this chick, Josephine,
called me, and she said...

"C.M.C. is gonna make sure that
I don't hear from Reena again."

What does that mean, Connor?

People are sayin' Reena might be
"floatin' around somewhere."
