21x02 - Impossible Dream

[bunniefuu]

In the criminal justice system,

the people are represented by

two separate
yet equally important groups,

the police who investigate crime

and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.

These are their stories.

I'm not saying you
shouldn't pursue your dreams.

I'm just saying you need
to be practical about it.

You want me to be practical
about being a dreamer?

Isn't that, like, a paradox?

I'm just being honest.

Most dreamers don't succeed. Fact.

Oh, my God!

, what's your emergency?

Hi, we... we just...

there's a dead body in Central Park.

DOA took two to the chest.

Found two discharged
shell casings over here.

No ID, no wallet, no phone.

Looks like a robbery.

White guy walking through the park.

Just like the old days, right?

What's the saying?
"History doesn't repeat itself,

- but it rhymes"?
- Mark Twain.

"Hythena,

working hard to keep you alive".

Not hard enough.

We're sorry to bother you, Ms. Ellis.

What's going on? Did something happen?

We're investigating a homicide.

A homicide?
What's that got to do with me?

We found a pen in a victim's jacket

with your company's name on it.

We did some googling
and he's one of your partners.

Oh, my God, that's...

That's Kyle.

I'm sor... are you saying he's dead?

We're sorry, ma'am.

I can't imagine what you must feel.

We can come back
at another time if you want.

- I'm fine.
- Good.

So the victim's name
was Kyle Morrison, correct?

Yes. He's my COO...

and fiancé.

Was there anything unusual
going on with Kyle?

Any problems?

What about you two? Any issues?

No. We were doing great.

We were in love.

Any money problems?

The company we started
is doing very well.

Kyle owns...

owned % of the stock.

Can you tell us
what Kyle was up to today?

Help us establish a timeline?

The company hosted a conference.

We do it every year. It's called Quest.

We were at the Peninsula Hotel
from : to : .

After that?

Kyle went back to the office.

- What about you?
- I came home.

I made some calls, and
then I met a few investors

for dinner around : .

When was the last time
you and Kyle talked?

Around : , just
after I finished dinner.

What did you talk about?

I told him that my dinner went well,

and that I was gonna take a walk.

A walk? At : at night?

Helps me wind down.

Hmm. Okay.

No, I didn't see anything unusual.

But I wasn't really looking either.

I was too busy making sure
that Nina was happy.

Nina... I thought you were
with Kyle most of the day?

I was, but he's easy.

Nina's the one in charge.

Has opinions on everything.

The signage, the lighting,
the coffee cups.

The milk. Literally.

She wanted %, not non-fat, not %.

But it's hard to argue with her.

I mean, she's the founder of
the hottest tech company

in the world.
She's worth over $ billion.

But, to be clear,
there were no problems, right?

No, the event was a big success.

Even Nina was happy.

Kyle was definitely
under a lot of pressure.

What do you mean?

He was the COO
of a start-up tech company

- on the verge of going public.
- Mm-hmm.

He was in charge of putting together

the sales materials,
the financial projections.

Any stressful issues
that weren't work-related?

Not that I'm aware of.

Any altercations or arguments?

Hostile phone calls?

Yeah.

About a week ago, some guy called Kyle.

He was really upset.

Demanded to speak to him right away.

I said he wasn't available,
and he went nuts.

Got really angry.

Said something like,

"If that coward doesn't call me
back in the next hour,

I'm gonna come down there
and b*at his ass".

You got this guy's name and number?

Damn right I called Kyle Morrison.

Did you thr*aten to b*at his ass?

Yes, sir.

Did you ever meet up
with him or confront him?

No.

Tried to track his ass down
a few times, but...

You actually went looking for him?

Yes, sir, I waited outside
his office building two times.

Didn't find him. But I will.

Swear on the lives
of my three daughters.

You might want to take that back.

Kyle's dead. Someone sh*t him.

You don't seem too upset.

I'm not.

Why all the hate?

What the hell did Kyle ever do to you?

He ruined my life.

How's that?

My wife took one
of those cancer screening tests

his company sells. Came back negative.

Then ten months later,
she didn't feel so good.

Went to the doctor, said
she had Stage uterine cancer.

Sorry to hear that.

But how is that Kyle Morrison's fault?

If she tested positive,

she would've gone to a doctor,
nipped it in the bud!

Instead, she just sat there,
watching TV,

ignoring the symptoms!

The cancer was spreading like wildfire.

Where were you last night, around : ?

At New York Hospital with my wife,

feeding her popsicles,

helping her to get through the chemo.

Morley's alibi checks out.

- His anger was very real.
- What's that mean?

Good chance that Morley
wasn't the only one

that found himself on the wrong side

of an erroneous screening test.

Medical tests aren't meant
to be perfect.

Mistakes happen.

Yeah, until it happens to you.

I mean, imagine a loved one

gets a false negative,
they get really sick.

Not really hard to imagine

somebody getting worked up about that.

I get it, but the company claims

its tests are % accurate.

So there's not gonna be a lot
of false negatives out there.

- Not so sure about that.
- What's that mean?

Just found a deleted email,

sent from the Chief Technology Officer

to Kyle Morrison a month ago.

Says, "We need to terminate

all patient screenings immediately.

The tests don't work.

This whole damn thing is a sham".

Big Tech has changed the world.

Electric cars.

Artificial Intelligence.

- Virtual reality.
- Hard to keep up.

Is that your crotchety-ass way of saying

you miss the way things were?

Just because it's new and shiny

- doesn't make it good.
- Huh.

To-may-to, to-mah-to.

Po-tay-to, po-tah-to.

Okay.

This is a spread.

Derek Seaver?

I'm Detective Bernard.
This is Detective Cosgrove.

We'd like to ask you a few questions.

About what?

Kyle Morrison.

I signed a non-disclosure agreement

when I left the company as
part of my severance package.

So I-I can't talk about him...

We're investigating a m*rder,
Mr. Seaver.

- The NDA is non-applicable.
- Sorry, I'm not talking...

We just have a few questions, sir.

The first one is,
why did you send an email

to Kyle saying the company was a sham?

Like I said, I'm not talking.

Seaver was always
sending hysterical emails,

looking to stir up trouble.

Thought it would distract us
from realizing

how incompetent he was.

But to be clear,
your screening tests work?

Of course they work.

The data is unassailable,

passed through
the FDA with flying colors.

If that's the case, then why did Seaver

say the technology was fraudulent?

Because he was on the verge
of getting fired.

He was trying to create some leverage,

so he could negotiate
a fat severance agreement.

Did Seaver and Kyle get along?

No, Seaver hated him.

He resented the fact that Kyle

had a bigger title, more stock options.

Did he blame Kyle for getting fired?

When Kyle broke the news,
Seaver went crazy.

I mean, he started screaming.

He smashed his computer
with a golf club.

Hmm.

On paper, this guy Seaver is a saint.

He went to MIT,

teaches code to inner-city
kids, helps them write it.

You know I don't care about paper.

I care about evidence.
I care about motive.

His motive is strong.

Getting fired two months
before the company

he helps build goes public.

So he was looking down
a pretty big pay day?

Really big.

$ -$ million.

And what was he doing
the night of the m*rder?

I'm still looking into that.
But I did run his plate.

The LPR shows he was
definitely in Manhattan

at the time of the sh**ting.

Just got off the phone
with the Scarsdale PD.

They found the mm Glock in the sewer.

Same caliber casings found at the scene.

Wait, they actually found
a g*n in the sewer?

- Mm-hmm.
- How? Why?

Someone called last night
and said they saw a man

pull over to the side of the road,

and drop a g*n in the sewer...

on Saratoga Drive,

which is a block from
where Derek Seaver lives.

Witness say what kind of car?

Mm-hmm, blue Tesla.

Just like Seaver's.

Bring him in.

Of course I didn't k*ll Kyle.

The evidence tells a different story.

No, I don't care what the evidence says,

I'm telling you the truth.

If I didn't sign the damn NDA, I...

To hell with the NDA!

Like I keep telling you,
it's not enforceable.

Just tell them what you know.

More specifically, tell us why

you dumped a g*n into
a sewer on Saratoga Drive?

A g*n?

So what the hell are you talking about?

I've never even touched a g*n.

Look, Derek, we know
you didn't like Kyle Morrison,

that you blame him
for getting you fired.

That's not true.
Kyle and I were friends.

He was a good guy.

And I... I didn't get fired.

I quit.

You quit?

You walked away from all
that IPO money voluntarily?

- You're damn right I did.
- Why?

Because the screening tests are bogus.

They don't actually work.

They're only % accurate,
like flipping a damn coin.

We're talking about cancer here.

People's lives.

How could the FDA approve those tests

if they're so flawed?

Because Nina Ellis
fabricated the results.

- You told all this to Kyle?
- Of course.

But he didn't believe me.

Not at first.

He didn't think Nina could actually do

something that evil.

So I showed him all the data,

all the results.

A week later, he called me.

He realized I was telling the truth,

said he was gonna pull
the products off the market

and postpone the IPO.

But someone sh*t him.

Any idea who that someone might be?

Nina Ellis.

No doubt.

But she was madly in love with the guy.

The only thing Nina
is madly in love with

is Nina.

Hey, Sara's got something.

Yeah.

We got this from the lobby downstairs.

It's from the day of the m*rder.

- Looks the same.
- Mm-hmm.

Definitely traces of blood on it.

Thanks.

Lot of reasons Kyle's DNA
could be on that coat.

That is correct.

But the most obvious one
is that she was wearing it

the night she sh*t his ass
in cold blood.

- What else do we have?
- She tried to frame

a former employee for the m*rder.

She actually called the Scarsdale PD,

said she saw some guy in a blue Tesla

drop a g*n in the sewer.

- Ambitious.
- Oh, you've got no idea.

Motive?

Well, her company is a house of cards.

And Kyle wasn't comfortable
moving forward with the IPO.

He wanted to delay it,
wanted to make sure

the screening tests actually worked.

Nina wasn't interested.

She didn't want anyone
or anything standing in the way

of her date with immortality,
so she k*lled him.

We have any proof she was
near the scene of the m*rder?

No. We do not.

It's solid...

But, right now,

everything can be explained away.

The blood, the phone call, the motive.

This woman needs to get off the street.

We need to end the charade.

We need to tell people
that these tests are phony.

So we're gonna arrest her today.

Whether or not you decide
to charge her with m*rder...

that's on you.

Nina Ellis, you need to come with us.

I can't. Well, not now.

I'm going to London.

We're kicking off
the Road Show for the IPO.

But I'll be back in three days,

and we can talk about
Kyle's m*rder then.

Yeah, that's not how this works.

What do you mean?

He means the Road Show is cancelled.

The only trip you'll be taking

is to the th precinct.

- I'm confused.
- Allow me to clarify.

You won't be needing
that luggage for this trip.

Nina Ellis, you're under arrest

for the m*rder of Kyle Morrison.

People ask for remand, Your Honor.

Defense requests bail be set

at $ million cash.

Ms. Ellis also agrees
to wear an ankle-monitor

and agrees to surrender her passport.

Your Honor, my client runs one of

the most important healthcare
companies in the world.

She's absolutely vital
to this entity's existence.

Without her, business will suffer.

Hundreds of employees
will lose their jobs...

Save the speech, Ms. Stanley.

Bail is set at $ million.

She gets to walk out on bail?

Nina Ellis needs to pay
for what she did to my son,

suffer the way Kyle suffered.

Mr. Morrison...

I'm very sorry for your loss.

I give you my word
we will do our best...

Your best? That's not good enough, pal.

Nina is evil.

She has no morals, no soul.

She'll do anything to win. Anything.

This is about making her pay
for what she did to my son.

- There she is!
- Ms. Ellis, Ms. Ellis!

Ms. Ellis! Did you k*ll Kyle Morrison?

Is the IPO still going forward?

Of course I didn't k*ll Kyle.

He was the love of my life.

And, yes, the IPO is moving forward.

Hythena is the premier
medical-testing company

in the world. Every day,

we're trying to find
new ways to save lives.

This trial is not gonna
stand in our way.

I couldn't be more excited
to share my truth.

This is an important moment,
not only for me,

but for every other

unapologetically ambitious
female entrepreneur

who refuses to conform to
archaic gender stereotypes

and societal pressures.

Nina!

Ms. Ellis!

Kyle's father was right.

This won't be easy.

The defendant k*lled Kyle Morrison

because he was gonna reveal the truth

that the screening tests didn't work.

As such, we'd like to present evidence

to support that theory,

witnesses who are on the wrong
end of these fallacious tests.

These witnesses are not
even remotely connected

to the m*rder case.

They will only serve to
distract and confuse the jury.

The flawed tests are the reason

Nina Ellis committed m*rder.

All medical tests have flaws.

Mr. Price knows this.

He just wants to paint
my client as a bloodless CEO

who doesn't care about
the wellbeing of her customers.

That is exactly what I'm trying to do,

because that's exactly who she is.

One, that is out of line and untrue.

Two, extrinsic evidence
of prior bad acts

is inadmissible under
the Molineaux doctrine.

And, three, it paints an unfair

and inaccurate picture of the facts.

You can't just talk about the customers

with adverse consequences.

What about the ones with
beneficial consequences

who got accurate results?

Who credit the company
for saving their lives?

Nina Ellis is on trial for m*rder,

not faulty screening-tests.

I agree.

There will be no witnesses
talking about bad test results.

Understand me, Mr. Price?

That's ridiculous.

Bad test results are
the reason Kyle is dead.

Nothing we can do.

So let's turn our attention

to picking the best jury possible.

We need people who aren't
susceptible to manipulation.

So women better than men,

less educated better than more educated,

- poor better than rich.
- You sure about that?

Confirmation bias.

Wealthy, educated people tend to believe

other wealthy, educated people.

We need skeptics.

People who can't wait
to call out a rich white woman

for being greedy and deceitful.

On a cold night in February,

the defendant sh*t and k*lled

her fiancé and co-worker, Kyle Morrison,

to perpetuate the fraud
that she is a tech visionary,

that her company
is a cutting-edge leader

in the healthcare industry.

In simplest terms, the defendant k*lled

Kyle Morrison because
he was gonna derail

the company's IPO,
a transaction in which

the defendant stood
to make over $ billion.

The only person standing in the way

of the defendant's greatness
was Kyle Morrison.

He was a decent and honest man.

He knew the company's
screening tests didn't work.

They didn't detect the cancers
they claimed to detect.

So he told the defendant
they needed to delay the IPO

and pull their products from the market.

She refused.

He insisted.

So she k*lled him.

I know that sounds implausible.

But, you see, the defendant
doesn't think or act

like the rest of us.

She believes that she's special,

that the rules of society,
they don't apply to her.

That the end always justifies the means.

That k*lling your fiancé?

It's just another cost
of doing business.

Make no mistake...

The poised and
successful woman you see...

at the defense table

is a cold-blooded k*ller.

As cold-blooded as they come.

What's Jing Reed?

- Better not to ask.
- What's that mean?

Means it's really good,

but it's better not to know
what you're actually eating.

Sautéed crickets.

- Seriously?
- Mm-hmm.

Biggest hurdle we face

is making it clear Kyle
wasn't actually mugged.

That it wasn't a random act of v*olence.

The only person who
could have k*lled him

was, in fact, Nina Ellis.

What is it?

Don't think we need to worry about

proving Nina actually k*lled Kyle.

What are you talking about?

She just changed her defense.

Nina Ellis

is going for a battered woman defense.

She's claiming that
Kyle physically, mentally,

and sexually abused her
on a regular basis,

and that the only way out

of this relationship was to k*ll him.

Is there any evidence to support this?

- No, nothing.
- Not that we're aware of,

anyway.

No police reports, no emails, no texts.

So she's just gonna
get on the stand and lie?

She's really good at it, too.

"No man has a good enough memory

to be a successful liar".

Abraham Lincoln.

Yeah, well...

Things have changed since he was around.

Honesty isn't exactly in vogue any more.

People lie.

Even worse, people
have gotten used to it.

It's become an accepted part
of our society,

which is why it's so dangerous.

Let Nina tell her story.

Then pick her apart.

Expose the lies.

Let this jury see
who this woman really is.

We were together, on and off,
for about five years.

And this past year, things got serious.

We fell in love.

Got engaged.

You were in love with Kyle?

Yes, but it was...

- Complicated.
- What do you mean?

Kyle was brilliant,

charming...

He was also abusive.

Abusive? What do you mean by that?

I mean that he...

at times, he would get physical with me.

Grab me.

Hurt me. thr*aten me.

Can you be more specific?

Can you give us a recent example?

Yes. A few weeks before I sh*t Kyle,

we got into an argument.

He thought I was flirting
with an investor,

a very wealthy investor.

He called me a whore...

a slut.

What happened next?

After he called you
these horrible names?

He grabbed me.

He slapped me.

Then he tied both
my hands to the bed post.

And he r*ped me.

You did not consent to this?

No. No, I begged him to stop.

I said that I wanted to leave,
but he just laughed.

And he said that he would
never allow me to leave.

He told me that if I ever
split up with him

or dated anyone else,
that he would k*ll me.

He used those exact words?

- Yes.
- Did you believe him?

Yes.

When Kyle was upset or when
something triggered him,

it's like he became a different person.

This horrifying incident
that you just related...

was this the only time that he hit you?

r*ped you? Threatened you?

No, it happened regularly.

Why did you sh**t Kyle Morrison?

Because I was afraid
he was gonna k*ll me.

- Hate to say it, but...
- Oh, I know.

A few of the jurors bought her story.

Mm-hmm, Juror
and Juror , to be exact.

We'll make up ground on cross.

I'll pick apart each and
every assertion of abuse.

Hopefully, the jury
will realize she's lying.

What do you mean

"pick apart each and
every assertion of abuse"?

I know this is a...

Delicate subject, but, come on, Sam.

We both know she's lying her ass off.

Do we?

I mean, we know she's lying
about her company,

about her screening tests
being accurate.

But that doesn't mean
she's lying about this.

She never told anyone Kyle was abusive.

She never sent a text.
She never made a phone call.

She never called ,
or filed a police report...

Lots of victims don't report abuse.

Just the way it is.

But most victims
aren't pathological liars

on trial for m*rder.

- I get it, but...
- But what?

Times have changed.

The MeToo movement changed the way

people think about abuse...

for the better,

meaning we need to change
the way we think about it, too.

You're worried about us
undermining the movement?

Women have been speaking up
about abuse for years,

but nobody believed them or cared.

Now they do, finally.

If we start attacking Nina's claims,

it's like we're ignoring all
the progress that's been made.

I agree with everything you just said.

But our job isn't to cater to movements.

It's to follow the law
and get justice for victims,

irrespective of
the political consequences.

So what are you saying?

We can't risk a not guilty verdict

because it might negatively
impact the MeToo movement.

It's not just that, Nolan.

We didn't screen for
domestic abuse, remember?

We screened for street smart.

People skeptical of power, wealth.

What do you remember
about the jury questionnaires?

Jurors and

reported they were victims
of domestic abuse,

and Juror number

said her sister's husband
was prone to v*olence.

MeToo or no MeToo,
we're behind the ball.

You want to offer Nina a deal?

Given the facts of this particular case,

- we think it's prudent.
- You think it's prudent

to give a m*rder*r a deal?

- That's not what I meant...
- Well, what is it, Price?

You afraid of losing?

Tarnishing your sterling reputation?

No, I'm... I'm trying to be honest,

to tell you where we're at.

We've evaluated the evidence,
the strengths, the weaknesses.

And we think a manslaughter plea

would be a reasonable result.

We know it's not perfect,

but we're trying to be pragmatic.

Yeah, on my son's nickel.
You get a guilty plea,

and my son's reputation goes to hell.

His legacy gets shattered.

Nina sh*t and k*lled my only child.

But that wasn't enough.

Now she's got to k*ll him
again on the stand.

Accuse him of hitting her?
Of raping her?

And you're just gonna
let her get away with it.

It's not that simple.

That's what people say
when they're afraid

of making a tough decision.

"It's not that simple".

But, hey, you're the prosecutors.

You get to make the decisions.

So, if you wanna make a deal,

if you wanna cut that
evil sociopath a break,

that's up to you.

But if you're asking for my blessing?

You can kiss my ass.

I appreciate that Kyle's father's angry.

But it's our job
to make the hard decisions.

- Not his.
- I understand that.

But...

He was the only reason I considered

a plea in the first place.

I was trying to be respectful.

But he wasn't interested.

He wanted justice for his son.

And that moved you?

- It did.
- Understandable.

But being moved doesn't change
the likelihood of success.

It certainly doesn't make
the jury any less sympathetic

to the defendant's allegations
of domestic v*olence.

Brian Morrison's son was
just m*rder*d, for God's sake.

His thinking is clouded
by rage and hate.

What he thinks, what he wants,
can't matter here.

I appreciate your resolve.

Don't let your ego get in the way.

It isn't ego.

It's belief.

Belief.

- Belief in what?
- In the system.

In the ability of people,

regardless of their own
personal relationship

to domestic abuse, to see the truth.

When I'm through with this trial,

the jurors will see
the exact same thing I see

on that witness stand...

a charming, sophisticated k*ller.

Okay, let's roll the dice.

Your former Chief Technology
Officer stated, under oath,

that the test results submitted

to the FDA were fraudulent,
that the data that he reported

was different than the data

that was actually included
in the application.

Is there a question here, Your Honor?

Get to it, Mr. Price.

When the CTO finished the application,

you were the only other executive

in the company who reviewed it.

You were also the only
executive who signed it,

which means you lied
about the data, the results.

That's not correct.

I reviewed what Derek Seaver sent me,

made a few edits
in the narrative portion

of the application,
signed it, then submitted it.

In the past months, there have been

approximately , customer complaints,

all of them claiming to have received

either a false negative
or a false positive...

Science isn't perfect.

False negatives and positives
are to be expected...

, complaints.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

God knows how many
other people have received

inaccurate results but didn't bother

to complain or don't even know it yet.

The tests work.

But that doesn't mean that
we're not striving to improve

their accuracy, to make them foolproof.

According to your recent
S- Registration Statement,

you've sold a total of , tests.

That means, your accuracy
rate is approximately %.

Heads you have cancer, tails you don't.

The technology that
we've developed will disrupt

the healthcare industry
and save millions of lives.

Save lives? Your screening
tests are k*lling people.

Objection!

Sustained.

You've made your point, Mr. Price.

former employees

have sued your company
for wrongful termination.

Each and every one of them
stated they were fired

for speaking the truth...

Objection! Mr. Price is giving a speech.

I'll get straight to it, Your Honor.

You don't care about the truth, do you?

That's preposterous. I'm a scientist.

The truth is literally
the only thing that matters.

But it's complicated.

I mean, what is "the truth"?

It's a tricky question,

trickier than most of us
would like to admit.

So, we use science to help define it,

to arrive at the functional truth...

what something does as
opposed to what something is.

I have no idea what you just said.

Then allow me to try again.

Short and sweet, this time.

I believe in the truth.

As long as it suits your interests.

Objection!

Move on, Mr. Price.

Your company filed
for bankruptcy last month.

Over investors have filed lawsuits.

The trustee estimates the value

of the ongoing business is zero.

So, if the screening
tests were so accurate,

and the data was so amazing,

how could the company be worth nothing?

The valuation has nothing
to do with the technology.

It has to do with this trial,

with the fact I'm not able

to run the company because I sh*t Kyle,

because the DA's Office
charged me with m*rder.

Because you sh*t and
k*lled Kyle Morrison.

He was going to k*ll me!

I did what I had to do!

If Kyle was so violent,

how come you never told
any of your friends?

Or called the police?

Because I was afraid.

And ashamed.

Afraid and ashamed?

Really?

I've read several interviews
you've given...

interviews where you
talk about being fearless,

about destroying
the so-called Boys Club.

About kicking men
in the balls who dare insult

your ability to run a tech company.

That was my persona speaking.

It's not who I really am deep down.

I don't know there
really is a deep down.

You're whoever you need
to be in any given moment.

Confident alpha dog CEO.

Abused, battered victim...

Kyle Morrison abused me.

b*at me. r*ped me.

He broke my arm three months ago

because I smiled at another man.

I spent three hours at the hospital.

So don't you dare question my truth!

That's my job, Ms. Ellis,

to question your truth,

to question your ridiculous assertions.

- Objection!
- Sustained.

Nothing further.

Thought you weren't gonna challenge

the abuse allegations?

I changed my mind.

- How come?
- Because I needed to.

You needed to att*ck her victimhood?

No, I att*cked her credibility.

You played into her hands,
Nolan... you alienated the jury.

Or I made them realize that she's lying,

weaponizing their victimhood
for her own personal gain.

This isn't about the past
or women or a movement.

It's about what Nina Ellis
did to Kyle Morrison.

You called her a liar.

You told the jury you didn't
believe she was r*ped, beaten,

without any real proof.

So let's find some.

Excuse me?

If Kyle really broke
her arm three months ago,

sent her to the hospital,

why didn't they present
the medical records?

Why didn't they make that
a major part of their case?

I'll call Cosgrove and Bernard.

Have them dig into it.

Yep, Nina Ellis came to the ER

on January th at : p.m.

- For a fractured arm?
- Patient fell,

suffered a mid-shaft humerus fracture

on her right nondominant arm.

Any mention of how
it happened, how she fell?

No.

Was anyone with her? A man, a woman?

I'm not sure. I wasn't working that day.

Can we see your video footage?

- Sure.
- Okay.

Ms. Fox, what do you do for a living?

I'm an equestrian coach,
a horse riding instructor.

Did you ever instruct the defendant?

Yes, I was her coach.

Were you coaching her
on January th of this year?

Yes.

Can you tell us what
happened on that day?

We were trying to simulate a polo match.

That's why I was coaching Nina.

She wanted to join
the Southampton Polo Team.

So we were riding,

playing polo, and
she fell off her horse.

Then what happened?

I ran over to her.
She was in a lot of pain.

Said her arm hurt.

What did you do next?

I drove her to the hospital
in Southhampton.

Did the doctors perform an X-ray?

Yes, they said she had a broken arm.

Was the defendant in any pain

- prior to the accident?
- No.

And in your experience
as an equestrian coach,

would it be possible to ride a horse

or simulate a polo match
with a broken arm?

No. That's highly unlikely.

Last question.

Was the defendant's
fiancé, Kyle Morrison,

present that day, either on the
polo field or in the hospital?

No.

Will the defendant please rise?

Has the jury reached a verdict?

Yes, Your Honor.

What say you?

On the count of m*rder
in the First Degree,

we find the defendant...

guilty.

They got it wrong.

Thank you. Thank you.

No protesters.

That's good.

How's that?

Shows the movement is real.

People saw through Nina's lies.

I get it, but it's tricky.

The mantra is "The victim's
truth is the only truth".

Yes.

As long as the victim is
actually telling the truth.
