06x15 - Brother's Keeper

Post by bunniefuu »

The following story is fictional and does not depict any actual person or event.

In New York City's w*r on crime, the worst criminal offenders are pursued by the detectives of the Major Case Squad.

These are their stories.

¢Ü "Spirit in the Sky" by Norman Greenbaum ¢Ü God wants us to obey him.

God has a plan for us.

For all of us.

There's a wonderful fantasy that there's a being up in the sky who knows all our thoughts, who cares about the minutiae of our lives.

This man needs to accept the Lord to take Jesus Christ into his heart, to ask Jesus for strength.

Does God exist?

Let me ask you this.

Do miracles exist?

Well, I wanna show you people my miracle.

My wife, Marjorie.

I fell in love with her the moment I met her.

We both had the love for the Lord.

So I prayed every night that Marjorie would fall in love with me and One night I asked her to marry me, and miracle of miracles, she said yes.

Tonight before the debate, my wife, Marjorie.

YOUR HUSBAND IS THE DEVIL She asked me to pray for a man.

A very intelligent man, a genius probably, whose teenage son is so intellectually disabled, that he can no longer bear the burden of raising him.

All the intelligence in the world would not help this man.

This man needs to pray to God, to accept God's will, to heal him.

God's will?

Healing power?

Genetic mutations can not be healed through prayer.

If inflicting unbearable pain is how your God test faith, then he's a vindictive son of a bitch.

Calm down! Calm down! Everybody.

All right, everybody.

Calm down! No v*olence! Law & Order CI Marjorie Riggins.

Wife of Reverend Cal Riggins.

Her wallet's here, jewelry.

Looks like she took a bad fall.

It's an awful lot of blood for a fall.

Head wounds, they bleed.

Any idea why the Reverend's wife was even in this stairwell?

The audience stormed the debate stage.

She must have run for the backstage stairs and forgotten which way to go.

Which way should she have gone?

Upstairs.

Not down to the green room.

These footprints, campus security?

No.

Her husband and his entourage.

They were praying over her when we got here.

They might have moved the body.

It's obviously been composed.

Maybe.

We had our hands full.

I sent her people away as soon as I got here.

There's a void in the blood spatter here.

Something was removed.

Not while we were here.

Well, bag this PDA separately, and get it back to us ASAP.

Besides her people, who had access to this staircase?

VIPs only.

I'll get you the list.

Oh, that, that's a smudge.

Excuse me.

Any idea where her people went?

They're in the green room, praying.

What happened is that Dr.

Corliss denounced our God.

And all hell broke loose?

Something like that, yes.

I rushed Marjorie to the side exit.

I told her to wait right there, and then I went to protect Reverend Cal.

It's Cal.

It's alright.

We can deal with this.

If the Reverend doesn't mind, it's It's OK, elder Roberts.

She's my wife.

And I got there too late.

Did you see her fall, Reverend?

No, I made eye contact from the stage, and then, there was the commotion, and then, she must have panicked.

Because she went down the stairs herself, and the Taking the stairs is a sign of panic?

Oh, it's for her.

Because she has labyrinthitis which is Causes vertigo.

There's medication for that.

Yes, there is.

But she said it made her feel stupid.

She'd rather be dizzy than stupid.

especially when she was practicing.

She was a doctor?

She was a pediatric ophthalmologist.

And the labyrinthitis, what triggered it?

She's had it her whole life.

She had trouble with motion and This damn tour, it's so much traveling and She fainted earlier tonight.

Was she under any particular stress?

Did you see or hear anyone on the stairs?

No.

We went up the stairs, and when we realized Marjorie wasn't there, I went to look for her, and I found her.

Did you move her body?

No, I didn't move her body.

I ran after Cal.

Her body was in such a peaceful pose.

I mean, for suffering such a trauma.

I did it.

I thought she was still alive, so I picked up her head and cradled her and started praying for her.

And that's when Dr.

Corliss came.

And he said she was gone.

Dr.

Corliss.

You'll probably find him outside the auditorium.

He smokes.

His whole flock praying, Riggins was laying hands on her, then suddenly faith be damned.

They ran for me and wanted medical expertise.

After I told them she was gone.

They posed her hands in prayer.

Her husband told us she didn't head to the stairs until the melee broke out.

It's possible.

I didn't see her.

After his crusaders stormed the stage, I, I cut out.

His crusaders, did you recognize them?

He has some zealots following the tour.

We were on a ten-city tour, Old time oratory.

Creationism versus evolution.

God versus no God.

I'm trying to save the country from intelligent design.

And sell your book?

He's after the big prize.

b*at back the devil.

Become the next Billy Graham.

It's hard to die from falling down the stairs.

It's basically a series of 8-inch falls.

Your natural instincts is to cover your head.

- But Marjorie didn't.

- No.

And I found some trauma I don't associate with the fall.

Tiny petechial hemorrhages in the eyes and brain, You usually see those in children with shaken baby syndrome.

So, you're saying someone shook her violently.

Yeah, maybe.

I'll know better by tomorrow, if bruises appear on her arms where somebody hoisted her up.

And, shook her and then threw her down headfirst.

- She was m*rder*d.

- Yeah, probably.

But with her labyrinthitis, it won't be hard to find expert witnesses who attribute her injuries to her extreme vertigo.

If her k*ller knew about her labyrinthitis then he give himself a good cover story.

Oh, boy, this preacher, just another big phony.

You know, he wants a Constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage.

All right.

Sure like to see what goes on in that bedroom.

Why are you defending him?

I'm not defending him.

They're charlatans these people.

He's supposed to be a believer, in which case he's supposed to believe that God had a reason for her death, right?

So, why is he crying?

What is he doing here?

Dr.

Sylveste.

I see the patient's her usual shy self.

No! - Bobby.

- Yes.

- I wanna go back to my room.

- I I know, mom.

You know, everybody tiptoes around me.

You know why, because on my chart, it says, it says that I'm a schizophrenic.

So, in that case, why don't they just send me back to my room in the nut house, not a hospital, not a hospice?

You're almost there, Mrs.

Goren.

She's handling the chemo very well.

Come on, I really am.

Look at this.

Now, listen, I am done with all of this.

You tell them that.

- OK, I'll do that.

- Good.

I'll tell them.

I'll do that, OK?

We're gonna go outside for a minute, OK?

If your brother were here, I wouldn't have gone through all this.

Ma, I'm just gonna be out here.

He, he would have taken care of me.

Rodgers says the bruise showed up on Marjorie's arms.

It's a homicide.

So CSU have anything?

That stairway smudge tested positive for her blood.

No way it happened in the fall.

How many people had access to the stairwell?

There was a VIP list.

Corliss didn't have anyone.

The Reverend had an entourage.

His people vouch for all the names except one.

A Mr.

Diego.

Marjorie left him a comp and a backstage pass.

She listed him as a friend of the church.

You're not convinced.

I checked her PDA, found his cell number.

When you call it, Diego directs you to a web site, because as he says, seeing is believing.

You're kidding.

Rend this hunk.

Diego.

By the hour or by the night.

Muscular, tanned, relentless.

We can all read, captain.

What would a preacher's wife want with a rent boy?

Mr.

Diego's web site is purely in the realm of personal fantasy.

No services are exchanged for.

My partner was in Vice for five years.

Chelsea for two of those years.

You're not my first rent boy, Diego.

Now, we don't have to shut down you web site.

We just wanna know why Reverend Cal's wife has your name in her PDA.

Listen, I swear to you.

I never even met the woman.

And she left you a backstage pass for the debate, the night she d*ed.

Is that because you're a big fan of intelligent design?

Is, is that what it is?

She's an ophthalmologist.

I wrote her a letter about my nephew.

He's going blind, and he can't afford the surgery.

I asked her to waive her surgical fee as an act of Christian charity.

But you don't have a nephew.

Oh uh I get it.

You've seen that DVD.

The DVD, the one in the envelope, that you left for her.

I hope you liked my work, detective.

It was impressive.

So, did you stay through the melee?

No, I put the DVD on the chair, watched her pick it up, then I left for a session.

But if you ask my client, discretely, I am sure that he will confirm that.

- This DVD, was it for blackmail?

- No.

I mean, not for money.

The preacher is spear-heading a Constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage.

I just wanted her to get Cal to shut up about h*m* being the work of Satan.

How long has Riggins been your client?

Three years.

He calls me when he comes to New York.

He flew me to Miami a couple of times, and Vegas.

How did he pay and what exactly did you do for him?

Plastic at first and cash.

And I do whatever he wants me to do.

But he likes crystal meth, especially booty bumps.

- Booty bumps.

- That's when you actually thought - I know what they are.

- All right.

The man is one of the most self-loathing guys I've ever met.

- And did he loathe you, too?

- Oh, yeah.

Call me names.

I thought he was gonna k*ll me once.

But then, you know, turned a song, and we Well, you saw the footage.

Well, we're gonna need a copy of this DVD.

You don't have it.

We appreciate your telling us about it.

Oh, that's not fair.

I thought Detectives, we may be able to produce a copy.

But that's subject to negotiation.

My client's invoking.

I miss Vice.

People doing stuff for money.

Guys like this, I get them.

OK, then do you get any sense Diego could have k*lled Marjorie Riggins?

Why would he?

He wanted Marjorie to pressure her husband.

k*lling her doesn't get him anything.

It wasn't him.

It was whoever took the DVD.

The k*ller wanted to make sure that she never had a chance to watch it.

Someone from the church.

Maybe the Reverend himself.

Where is he?

He's staying at their new hundred million dollar evangelical institute.

Pay him a condolence call.

The guest list?

Reverend, your cup runneth over.

Oh, I thought my staff already went over there.

There's just one odd man out.

This one.

Do you know him?

No.

I don't believe I do.

He told us you've been his client for the last three years.

His client?

I don't think so.

Maybe he works in accounting or he's doing around here He's been in touch with your wife.

She left him a backstage pass.

He claims to know you personally.

Well, a lot of people claim to know me personally.

Did you say his name?

Diego?

We have other photos.

You know, there is a Diego that is a professional massage therapist, but I It's so dark in those rooms, so I can't Do you have a massage therapist?

Is he your massage therapist?

I can't say for sure.

I'm really sorry, detectives, that I can't be more helpful.

Actually, it's always helpful when we know someone's lying to us.

There seem to be phone calls from your cell to his.

Actually, this is You know what?

This is Diego.

Yeah, it's funny.

The back pain I get is so crippling that I can't even think.

I just lay there, and I close my eyes And wait for that booty bump?

There's a lady in the room, detective.

I'll wait outside.

How is he?

He seems almost stricken.

It's such a terrible loss, for all of us.

We're a family.

In this family, who handles the Reverend's credit card bills?

Well, I do.

Because sometimes when something like this occurs, some predators try to open accounts using the deceased's identity.

You have to notify Oh, I know, I already did.

I learned my lesson the last time.

The last time?

Well, you know, the old imp is always trying to find a way in.

Who is the old imp?

I'm sorry.

That's what my mother used to call him.

The devil is the modern term.

Like that man who cloned the Reverend's credit card.

That's something an imp would do, don't you think?

Ah Someone cloned his card?

- Identity theft?

- No, it was just the one.

But you know what they used it for?

Prostitutes.

He hit the roof when I told him.

I'll bet he did.

I don't know anything about any DVD.

Listen, I've lost my wife.

Why are you doing this now?

The medical examiner believes that your wife was m*rder*d, Reverend.

Do you know anyone who would want to k*ll your wife or hurt you by k*lling her?

Of course, I have enemies.

What kind of enemies?

Demons.

Your demons?

Are they inside, or are they outside?

Both.

Detectives, If you'll excuse us please, the Reverend has an urgent meeting.

I'm sorry, forgive me.

All right.

That was Ross.

Diego's lawyer called.

His apartment was broken into.

His laptop and webcams were stolen while he was with us.

No DVD.

And the Reverend swears that he knows nothing about a DVD.

Which means we're looking for something that may not exist.

There might be a paper trail linking him to Diego.

Riggins gave his secretary some cover story about identity theft, but someone in the church must be onto him.

Hey, Bobby.

What are you doing here?

Church people.

They're good people, man.

Yeah, I know.

They get me clean, feed me.

I would have been dead long time ago, if it weren't for them.

I mean it.

How you doing?

So, how's mom?

My phone?

No, I got into a thing with the phone company.

If you left me messages, I'm sure they have them, - but they won't let me access them.

- Yeah, sure.

So, how sick is she?

She's not good.

I've been looking into experimental She's not good.

Just try prayer, Bobby.

It works miracles.

Mom's always talking about you.

She always asking me, why didn't I become a scientist like you?

She always believed in me.

I gotta go.

That's my old lady over there.

She's a little shy.

That woman Is that your wife?

That's, that's my partner.

- So what are you waiting for?

- No, it's not that kind of partner.

Look, I'm going to see mom on Sunday.

I'm thinking that maybe we could go together and see her.

You know, we could meet here.

Yeah, I know, it's her birthday, right?

Yeah.

No, man, I don't think so.

I got, you know, - I'm a little short this month.

- Yeah, well, look uh That's alright, alright.

It's OK.

Look, here.

Hey, look, just take this, alright?

Thanks.

I'm gonna pay you back on Sunday, OK?

Huh?

So, we meet right here?

cr*ck of noon?

- I'll give you my coat.

- No, I don't Yeah, you're cold, man.

- Sure you don't need it?

- Yeah, don't be silly.

- It's nice, it's nice.

- Yeah, a good coat.

So, uh I'm gonna put my card in your pocket here.

I want you to call me if if you need anything, call me and ask me, OK?

But I'll see you here.

Noon.

I'll be here.

Thanks, bro.

Alright.

Come here, baby.

The DA says no probable cause.

You're asking for a search warrant based on the guesswork of a gay male escort, who may have been blackmailing Riggins.

- It's a tough sell.

- Yeah, but doesn't matter.

'Cause everyone in the church denies they ever saw the DVD.

And if anybody did take it, - they would have destroyed it by now.

- Thanks.

Riggins' credit card company confirmed the theft.

They deactivated the account, refunded the money, and issued a new number.

That doesn't mean they weren't his charges.

It just means that someone convinced the credit card company to write them off.

We're hitting a church wall.

His people are gonna protect the Reverend.

Did anyone else see Marjorie's body before campus security arrived?

Dr.

Corliss.

Must be frustrating.

Try to conduct an investigation within a group that's entirely invested in irrationality.

Ah, well, homicides are often irrational, as well.

So, Marjorie's death has been ruled a homicide?

Yeah, it looks that way.

These people, they're fanatics.

You seem to assume that the m*rder had to do with someone at the church.

There're also agnostics and atheist at the debate.

I'm sorry.

Of course, you're right.

I guess my bias against the Religious Right is surfacing.

I resent the way they treated Marjorie on the tour.

They treated her badly?

A brilliant doctor.

They turned her into a prop.

Well, we're more interested in what you remember after you found her.

She was given a DVD that night.

It didn't turn up with her belongings.

I didn't see a DVD.

Everything was scattered around the stairs.

How about an envelope?

Yes, the Reverend had one, manila.

He was clutching it.

G.

K.

Chesterton, C.

S.

Lewis.

And Ripped boys magazine, which one of these things is not like the others.

Uh, excuse me, what are you people doing here?

Executing a search warrant.

You're welcome to stay.

We're looking for the DVD that Diego said he gave to your wife.

Well, as I told you before, Miss, I don't know anything about it, so Turns out Diego was secretly taping your massages.

He gave Marjorie a copy.

What have I done?

You made yourself a pretty good suspect for her m*rder.

Did Marjorie see it?

You tell us.

Did she mention it to you?

No.

Before the debate, she came up into the green room.

Then she asked me if I knew Diego.

And you said no.

I couldn't tell her.

'Cause I knew that God was gonna punish me for what I was doing.

'Cause I knew that it was wrong.

But you couldn't stop?

No, I couldn't stop.

I'm so sorry, Marjorie.

I hear you're looking for a DVD.

You're wasting your time.

It's gone.

You knew about it?

Well, then you must have taken it out from Marjorie after she was k*lled.

Is that true?

Cal, I told you not to talk to the police or to listen to them.

You have nothing to worry about, do you understand?

Now I'm gonna call the lawyer.

Tell you what, why don't you just have him meet you downtown?

Yes, I knew about the sickness that Cal was suffering.

I saw the credit card receipts.

I paid some of these people to stay away from him.

Did you talk to Marjorie Riggins about Diego?

I told her that a man was stalking Cal and that we were taking care of it.

How were you taking care of it?

What are you implying?

Maybe you weren't the first person to find Marjorie's body.

Maybe you were the last person to see her alive.

How can you even think that?

You took the DVD.

Why?

There was no DVD.

It never existed.

Really?

That's too bad for you, because Diego kept a copy in a safe deposit box.

I don't know if you knew that.

We have it here.

I can play it for you here, now, if you like.

No.

- No.

- Here, catch, just.

Something wrong with your arm?

I have a frozen shoulder.

Rotator cuff thing?

You should have told us.

Because, whoever k*lled Marjorie, shook her like a rag doll.

And you don't have the strength.

What I'm struggling to understand here is why you are more suspicious of us than of a blackmailing prost*tute.

Because he has an alibi.

He left before the debate began.

Hmm well, not according to this.

You see, one of our congregates recorded parts of the debate on her cell phone including the audience.

And if you'll notice, sitting in the back row is Diego.

Maybe, if you weren't so eager to prosecute one of our flock for Marjorie Riggins m*rder here, might not have overlooked the real k*ller.

Frank will be here.

He would never forget my birthday.

- Why don't you open your present?

- No, I want to wait.

He'll be here.

Bobby?

Have you seen Frank?

How how is he?

What did he say?

He's fine.

Oh, good, good, of course he is.

He said that he's cleaning himself up.

Ah Frank never caught a break.

You had all the luck.

Where was he?

He was coming out of a church.

You see that.

He's going back to God.

Never underestimate your brother.

I was just I'm just gonna close my eyes, a little bit.

I already told you, I put the DVD on doctor Riggins' chair, then I left.

OK, what is this about, detective?

We have footage showing Diego sitting in the audience during the debate, which means, Diego, you could have been in that auditorium at the time of Marjorie Riggins' death.

OK.

True story.

I stayed for a few minutes.

I just wanted to make eye contact with Cal.

And I wanted to see that bastard squirm.

But I left, I was gone by quarter to 8.

I went to a restaurant and I had dinner with my Mom.

And I was hoping that we could keep her out of this.

You despise Reverend so much.

Why take him on as a client in the first place?

I didn't know who he was in the beginning.

- He used an alias?

- Yeah, get this.

He called himself James Corliss.

Did you look into that new treatment that I was talking about?

Radiation-carrying monoclonal antibodies.

The studies are ongoing.

Yeah, but the phase 1 tests, they were very promising for someone with my mother's type of cancer, I mean, if you could get her into a trial They won't take her in a clinical trial.

Her cancer is advanced, and her mental health is an issue.

Well, then forget the trial.

Just get the treatment.

The FDA hasn't approved it yet.

Well, then apply for the compassionate use exception.

Look, she's got no other option.

Compassionate use.

I'm afraid there may not be enough time.

Well, I've been talking to someone at the FDA, - they could help expedite - Mr.

Goren, please.

You should know your friend can help.

But the cost is prohibitive.

It's not covered by medicate.

The entire expense would have to come out of pocket.

- How much?

- Minimum?

5,000-6,000 dollars.

For the whole treatment?

No, per month.

Just because the science exist doesn't always make it the best choice for the family.

Sometimes we have to rely on faith.

Like this evening.

Just before the debate, my wife came to me, asked me to pray for a man.

A very intelligent man.

A genius probably, whose teenage son is so intellectually disabled, that he can no longer bear the burden of raising him.

And I told Marjorie, all the intelligence in the world will not help this man.

This man needs to accept the Lord.

He needs to pray to God, to accept God's will, to heal him.

God's will?

Healing power?

Genetic mutation cannot be healed through prayer.

If inflicting unbearable pain is how your God test faith, then he's a vindictive son of bitch.

That's the man of reason.

They debated dozens of times before.

Riggins must have really hit a hot button to make Corliss lose control.

If those two hate each other so much, why tour together?

Riggins is driven to convert the non-believer.

What Corliss gets out of it, who knows.

He gets paid for it.

He gets 10 grand a debate.

Corliss is in it for the money.

He's a successful, single doctor, no dependents, has a modest life style.

How much cash could he need?

James Corliss pays his bills on time.

No debts, no mortgage.

He's divorced.

What about alimony?

Nope, his ex remarried in '92.

Lives in Toronto.

No expenses out of the ordinary except for this.

A monthly check to Alminia S.

Perez.

Starting in 1990 for $2,200.

Regular increases.

Last month check was for $6,000.

Cost of living rates?

He is paying someone this monthly expenses?

Alminia Perez.

A girl friend.

Any notation in the check ledger?

Cleaning services.

I clean house for Dr.

Corliss.

He's very generous.

$6,000 a month.

You have questions?

You should talk to Dr.

Corliss.

You have grand children, Miss Perez?

Yes.

/ Child proof latches on the cabinets.

How old are they?

One?

Two?

My grandson is two and a half.

Two and a half?

And he plays super champion.

That's more for an older boy.

I have to go to work now.

Are you expecting someone?

You leave him alone, Miss.

He doesn't understand.

Hi, I'm Jimmy.

Jimmy, this is a friend of mine.

- I'm Alex.

- I like friends.

Super friends.

You like them?

Very much.

Sometimes I work with Batman.

Hang up your jacket Jimmy, in your room.

He's James Corliss' son.

You've taken care of him for 17 years.

Dr.

Corliss, he just couldn't keep Jimmy.

His wife left.

He worked all the time.

And so he paid you to raise his child, and to keep his secret.

Last month I told Dr.

Corliss I can't do it anymore.

Jimmy is too big.

I wanna move to Florida with my daughter and grandson.

Does Jimmy know who his parents are?

We look at pictures.

Does Dr.

Corliss visit?

He's a very busy man.

Alminia, I'm hungry.

Can Alex stay for cookies?

James Corliss has a mentally disabled son he's kept secret 17 years?

And Corliss lost control during the debate when Riggins brought up children.

Riggins found out about Jimmy.

Or Corliss thought he did.

And blamed Marjorie.

Interesting theory.

No proof, no witnesses.

Corliss finds out you met his son, tough getting him to talk.

Not if he thinks we're going after his archenemy, the Reverend.

Don't bring the man.

Visit his lab, tell him we need him to testify against Riggins.

Cal Riggins was using church funds to pay for gay sex?

You had no idea?

It's not something I would have kept quiet, is it?

Did Marjorie know?

We were hoping maybe you could tell us.

You and Marjorie were both doctors.

Did you know each other before the tour?

We are professional colleagues.

Did you ever go to any conferences with her?

- Maybe overseas?

- It's possible.

Our fields overlap.

We went through her calendar.

The two of you were on several panel discussions together.

Seattle, Boston.

Why would you hide that from us?

- What are you getting at?

- Well, you were single.

Marjorie was traveling without her husband.

We even found out that two of you in Venice together at a convention, same hotel, Venice is a romantic city.

Not for Marjorie.

Venice is a k*ller for anybody with any kind of motion sickness.

Well, she could have taken Dramamine.

Not for labyrinthitis.

She said it was like the wallpaper was crawling up the walls.

I tried to tell her to have the surgery.

But she wouldn't listen.

So you were more than colleagues.

- Did you talk about your son?

- Jimmy?

Alminia told me you came by.

You should have spoken to me first, detective.

I didn't know you had a son until I got there.

Cause you don't talk about him.

It's not on the book jackets that you have a child.

Is it a secret?

It's private.

It's mine and his.

It's ours.

So you could handle it as long as it was private.

That's not fair.

My wife and I fell apart, after he was born.

I was single.

I couldn't take care of him properly.

You're not embarrassed about Jimmy, are you?

I love my son.

I cried like a baby that day I knew there was nothing we could do, that all the science in the world couldn't fix my child.

Were you angry at God for that?

No, there is no God.

What happens to us is what happens to us.

And I might hate it for Jimmy, for me.

But It had nothing to do with God.

Then when Riggins said at the debate that only God could help your son I lost it.

How dare that fanatic connect my precious son to his made-up God.

What I don't get is how Reverend Riggins even found out you had a child.

I don't know.

They must have been digging for something they could use on me.

That's not it.

Marjorie knew about Jimmy, didn't she?

Yes.

I told her.

Years ago, it was very difficult time.

And she was there for me.

Did you ever wonder how a woman with a scientific mind could end up with a man like Riggins?

These men are cons.

I begged her not to marry him.

You wanted her to marry you, help raise your son.

We were just friends.

You, you mean that she rejected you for Riggins.

That she rejected your science for his faith.

And then, the ultimate betrayal is that she told him about Jimmy and your pain and guilt.

How could she do that to you?

Look, I've done this a lot.

If you confess, it feels better.

So, after the melee, you confronted her?

I just wanted to know why she told him.

So I took her shoulders and I shook her.

She said she wanted Cal to feel sympathy for me.

That if he understood what I suffered, he'd have compassion.

Instead of using Jimmy to taunt me, to hurt me.

So you hurt her.

How long did you shake her for?

Until her head hit the wall.

And I saw her eyes and she was And so I dropped her.

PREACHER PAID FOR GAY SEX Detective, the ME just called.

You should get down there.

Detective.

He had your card in his coat.

That's not my brother.

It's my coat, it's not my brother.

I guess he sold it to somebody.

It's OK, I gave it to him.

He can sell it if he wants to.

Well, everybody needs money, right?

Thanks.
