to come clean with your girl, Val.

- You really do.

- What you doin'?

- I'm straightening up your tie. I like that tie.

- What are you doing?

Well, like it from a distance.

What you doin'?

- I'm not playing with you, man.

- I'm not playing with you.

It's over.

Oh, okay. It's over.

So you're gonna walk away just like that?

Well, I'm gonna be right here when you come

back, baby, because Kevin knows who he is.

Everyone knows who Kevin is.

I am free. Kevin is free.

'Cause you're D. L!

Go ahead.

Are you gonna change your spots?

You can't change your spots!

You are nothin', baby.

Look at him! Look at him! He's a f*ggot!

He's a big-time punk!

Sissy.

Coming clean after I caught you

red-handed really doesn't mean that much.

Yeah, but now there's-

there's no more secrets between us.

I love you, Val. We're supposed to

be together. I don't want you to leave.

You think you can do what you've done- live

a double life- and it's all supposed to go away?

Why, Dutch, why?

Why you think that?

- 'Cause you're cryin'?

- I can change.

Val, I can change. I swear.

- I swear to God I can change.

- I'm sorry, Dutch.

I filed for divorce.

This is what I get?

This is what I get for being honest?

Val, I can't stand the thought

of losing you and Nicole. I need you.

- Baby, you can't walk out on me.

- You walked out on me...

again and again and again.

Admit it.

You must have hated them-

both Dutch and Ryan.

- I would have.

- Hated them?

I wouldn't say hate.

I wouldn't say that.

After a betrayal like that?

Oh. I know you're a good Christian

and all of that.

- But a jury is gonna have a hard time believing-

- Detective.

I can assure you

that on that jury...

they will contain a number of good Christians

who won't have trouble believing.

Time is up.

- There's not much more to tell.

- Make it fast.

Ryan Chambers and all that...

it meant nothin' to me.

Baby, I swear to God. I swear to God,

it meant nothin'. It meant nothin' to me.

You a hell of an actor. You sat there

and said them same things to me.

Sitting at my table. Only you

was sitting where she was sitting.

- I'm leaving.

- Sit your ass down.

- Get your hands off me.

- Don't you ever put your hands on my wife!

- Who do you think you are?

- Check it out.

- Don't you ever touch me again!

- He used me.

- Just leave. This is between me and her.

Just leave. - You lied to us.

- You used everybody.

- We have an emergency.

- Good night.

- Just get out.

- Let me give you a little hot tip.

- Take your hands off her!

You can tell the tabloids this, okay?

Ryan Chambers is H.I.V. positive, honey.

- What did you say?

- Have you lost your natural mind?

Hold up. Stop.

What did you say?

Ryan Chambers is H.I.V. positive.

What have you done?

What have you done to me?

What have you done to me?

What have you done to me?

Bye, sweetheart.

Happy holidays.

We'll miss you, sweetheart.

Man, I hate you!

- I hate you, you know that!

- Hey! Hey, sir!

- I'll kill you. I hate you.

- Put it down! Drop the knife!

- I love you, and you love me.

- You love yourself.

- Man, I hate you!

- Drop the weapon and step away!

Now!

I said put it down!

I love you.

Go to hell!

God don't want you.

- Don't worry, Mr. Chambers. We have everything

under control. - He just went off.

You'll burn in hell for this.

You gonna burn in hell for this, Ryan.

- Calm down!

- You'll burn in hell for this!

Let's go!

I said calm down!

You'll burn in hell for this!

- Come on.

- You go to hell!

Cute.

Open the gate!

Robert Mass?

Your bail was posted.

- By who?

- Step out.

Let's go!

Thanks for bailing me out, Dad.

It's true, isn't it?

You put your family in danger.

You don't put...

your family in danger.

Pops-

This is not what Mass men do.

I tried to tell you-

I tried to tell you.

You were so proud of me!

Thief! You stole my granddaughter,

my family, my life.

- You took every single thing l-

- I tried to tell you.

So many times.

Listen to me.

This is who I am!

This is Dutch!

I'm not your perfect son.

I can't be what it is

you want me to be!

This is Dutch. This is Dutch.

This is who I am.

This is who I am!

This is who I am!

I don't know why I'm here.

Then get on your knees, and don't get off

until you've found the answer.

You judging me?

What happened to judge

not lest ye be judged?

What happened to that?

I'm not judging you, son.

I do have a question. Are you saying

that what you did was right?

No. I'm not saying I was right.

But maybe I did the best I could.

You believe that?

How far you think that's

gonna fly with the Lord?

It's cruel and selfish to bring

a possible death sentence...

to those you say you love

for a few moments...

of lust and pleasure.

You think I don't know that?

Yeah, I'm a coward...

and I'm afraid.

What would have happened

if I'd been honest?

I'd be called a sinner.

A homo. A fag.

Do you know how hypocritical that is...

when you look at the D.L. brothers

in your own congregation?

Are you suggesting that the imperfection

of the sinners in my church...

is the reason you betrayed

your wife and child?

I'm used to people lying to me, son.

You're lying to yourself.

That's the worst of it.

We both know that if I'd been honest,

I'd have lost everything.

I hate to break the news to you, son.

You lost everything.

- Except-

- Except what?

Redemption.

God don't hold grudges.

His hands is always

stretched out to us...

whether we're riding

the chariots of grace...

or crushed beneath the wheels.

He's there.

He's there waiting for you.

The longer you wait,

the harder it's gonna be.

But you have to call him.

Just call him, son.

Call him now.

Number 16. Number 16.

- Hi.

- Hi.

I'm here to be tested.

Take this number, and someone

will be with you as soon as possible.

- Thank you.

- Okay.

Number 17.

Number 18.

Ms. Valerie Mass, your time is up,

and the offer's off the table.

- What are you talking about?

- You're being charged with first-degree murder.

Are you out of your mind? Valerie,

I'll have you out of here in no time.

- Detective Hicks, I'm innocent.

- I know you don't care about

this girl's guilt or innocence.

- Get out of my face.

- There's a long way between here and conviction...

Assistant D.A.

And you tell me, where do you think you're

gonna be when this case blows up in your face?

The election will be over by then.

Valerie Mass.

Number 225.

Ladies and gentlemen of the press,

I would like to-

Excuse me.

I'm sorry. We're going to have to delay

this press conference...

for about five minutes or so.

Now this is still a breaking story.

Can you tell us what happened,

Mr. Simmons?

This better be worth my while.

What exactly is on this DVD?

Well, I've only watched a few seconds,

and I already know...

that you can't go to the press conference

without checking this out.

This was delivered to the front desk

addressed to Valerie Mass.

- And who's it from?

- "To Valerie Mass.
