I thought I could trust you?

What? What now?

Our bank account is empty?

What the hell is all this stuff?

You tell me?

I don't know what this crap is?

I don't gamble.

I don't either.

I have an addiction but it's not

gambling.

And I'm sober.

I can't explain it if I don't

know what it is.

I don't know where this stuff

came from but it's not me.

What?

I told you Jake you had one more

chance. I've given you many many chances.

That one more time something

like this happen, One more time.

What does that mean?

Huh? Your gonna divorce me?

Well?

For this?

It's been going on and on, and

on and on.

Everything is me. You never

trust me. Never trust me.

I'm tired of it. I'm tired of

it.

Not me.

Hey Christine, what are you doing?

I was just thinking about you?

Really? I saw you at school

today.

Why didn't you say hi?

Because...

You seemed really busy.

I've been dealing with a lot of

stuff lately.

My parents are always fighting.

Yeah, my parents fight a lot.

I just try to get outta the

house when that stuff happens.

Where to? I don't even have a

car or anything.

Hey we should meet somewhere

some time.

And talk, you know in person.

Maybe a movie?

Umm, I don't know if I can.

It's kinda silly for us to be chatting. I

mean, I don't even have video on my computer.

We've been doing this for a

while don't you think?

Wouldn't you like to meet in

person?

There is that new Jayden Smith

movie I want to see.

Yeah.

Ok, I'll have my mom drop me

off.

I can pick you up.

You have a car?

Yeah, what's the address?

It's 3150 French Court. I'll

send it to you.

I can't wait to finally meet

you.

Me too. Bye.

Just let me know when you're

ready pal.

Your not going to a different

seat are you?

I thought we could have a little

talk.

I don't have anything to talk to

you about.

Hmm.

Well I hope you brought cash.

Being that your credit cards

don't work anymore.

What did you say?

What do you know about that?

Hey!

What do you know about that?

I know about a lot of things.

Yeah?

Like what?

Well..

I know Christine is having a tough

time in school making new friends.

It's just so hard.

It's tough on kids when your dad

is a drunk.

I also know, that little noise

that Ally makes.

What noise?

You know.

When you're giving it to her.

I love you.

Hey! What's going on here?!

You want to make fun of my wife?

Whoa whoa whoa whoa.

I saw him drinking and I asked

him if he wanted a drink.

This guy.

I think you broke my nose.

Man I'm sorry. You don't

understand-

You want me to call the cops?

You sure your alright?

I'ma need you to leave or else

I'ma call the cops on your ass.

You stay away from my family.

Jake. Your home.

Oh is this about Martin

Coughlin?

again?

Sir, did you do this to Forest

Hayes?

That's impossible.

I hit him once.

Where was it?

I was sitting at a bar for

lunch.

Wait. Wait Wait. In a bar?

It's not a bar. It's a

restaurant that has a bar.

Look, Forest came in and started talking about

all these sort of thing he couldn't possibly know.

He's setting me up.

Sir. We're going to have to take

you in.

- Please turn around. Place your hands behind your back.

- This is ridiculious.

Your under arrest for assault

and batery.

You have the right to remain silent. Anything

you say can and it will be used against you

in the court of law. You have

the right to an attorney.

If you could not afford an attorney,

one will be provided for you.

Do you understand these rights

as I've read them to you?

It's ok honey. I didn't do any

of this ok.

Sir do you understand these

rights?

Sure.

What happened? Where are they

taking day?

No mom, What happened? Why is

dad getting arrested?

I have to go to the station. Ok.

It's all a mistake.

Do you hear me? Do you

understand?

Now, what I need you to do is to

stay home.

Stay by the phone. And I will be

back. Ok?

Stay here.

I love you.

I'll be back.

Hello?

Hey, Are you still there?

Yeah, um...

Can you come over now?

Sure. Is everything ok?

Yeah, it's just, I really need

someone to talk to.

Great. I'll be there in a little

bit.

Ok.

Coming.

Hi Christine.

What are you... What are you doing

here? You're not suppose to be here.

I thought you wanted to go to

the movies?

Your...

Matthew.

I'm Deputy Dolin, and I will be facilitating

your conversation with Deputy Drew.

Where is Jake?

We are going to hold on to him

for a few hours.

Why?

This is crazy!

My husband has never hit anyone

in his life.

There is no way he could have

beat up that man.

Well according to the arresting deputy,

Jake admitted hitting Forest Hayes.

I know my husband.

He would have never hit anybody

like that.

I am telling you. Forest Hayes

is lying.

Something happened to him and

he's using it to blame Jake.

Why would he do that?

I don't know?!

Look, Jake has given us the name of the

restaurant where all this happened at.

I guess there is a bartender

there who saw it all go down.

Well send a unit over to try and

get a hold of this guys.

Get a statement. If it all

checks out we'll cut Jake loose.

Ok. So when are you going to go?

I'm not going. We'll send a

patrol unit.

Ok, well when are they going to

go?

As soon as one is available.

It's not exactly a priority.

My husband sitting in jail for

something he didn't do is not a priority?

No it's not and I'm sorry.

Look.

Mrs. Turner we are going to try to

get your husband out as soon as we can.

But in the mean time, I suggest

you make a few phone calls

and try to find an attorney for

him while you wait ok?

Alright.

Certain things go together.

There's combustion.

Kinda like your family moving

into my house.

Christine?

Here's your chance to scream for

help.

Why are you calling me?

HELP!

HELP ME PLEASE! SOMEBODY-

Text Me.

PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME! PLEASE.

Christine!

Christine! Christine!

Honey.

Christi-!

You looking for Christine?

What are you doing here?

Where is my daughter?

Sit down.

No.

I said sit down.

Please. Please.

Where is my daughter?

I will do anything.

What do you want?

I want my house back.

I want my house back that you

stole!

I did not steal from you! I

bought it!

Do you understand me?

Where is my daughter?

Where is my daughter.

Shut up!

You want your daughter? Do you

want your daughter?

You give me my house back and

I'll give you your daughter.

You can't be serious.

Look familiar?

Sign it.

No.

Sign it or I will kill her!

Ok, I will.

Follow me.

Do not move.

Do not move.

Don't you do it.

Right up here.

Let's go.

Let's go ok?

Hey officer.

Officer.

Did they find that bartender

yet?

Just like your wife.

No, no one has gone down to the

restaurant yet.

When is that gonna happen?

It's not a priority.

This is ridiculous for me to be

in here for something I didn't do.

You admitted it. Did you or did you

not admit to hitting Forest Hayes?

I hit him 1 time.

But I didn't beat him up like

you saw on that picture.
