sentimental bullshit Jennifer

Li would come up with.

It fits perfectly with that,

"look at me" victim identity.

You know why you get

bullied, Jennifer?

It's because you ask for it.

Wow!

Well done, Casey.

Now you're talking

like your true self.

A bully.

Well, then, I guess we're all

bullies, aren't we, Jennifer?

I am not Jennifer Li.

What is that?

She didn't.

Jennifer thought that

if she posted this

the troll's would leave her alone.

She was wrong.

Steerpike underscore 84...

"Lame effort. "

99Badman99...

"Attention whoring b*tch. "

I can read it for myself.

Blaze underscore 7

underscore Blaze...

"Try the other side of the

arm, you'll bleed more. "

You don't need to read it out loud.

Would you like to see her last video?

No.

MUSIC:
Mad World

All around me are familiar faces

Oh, I've seen these.

They tell their sad story...

Bright and early

for their daily races

Going nowhere

Going nowhere

The tears are filling

up their glasses...

Why do they take so long over it?

No expression

No expression

Hide my head I want

to drown my sorrows...

My parents are divorced,

I didn't subject the world

to my singing voice.

And I find it kind of funny

I find it kind of sad

The dreams in which I'm dying

Are the best I've ever had

I find it hard to tell you

I find it hard to take

When people run in circles

It's a very, very

Mad world...

I didn't know that.

I didn't know any of this.

Children waiting for

the day they feel good

Happy birthday

Happy birthday

And to feel the way

that every child should

Sit and listen

Sit and listen

Went to school and

I was very nervous

No-one knew me

No-one knew me

Hello teacher tell

me what's my lesson

Look right through me

Look right through me

And I find it kind of funny

I find it kind of sad

The dreams in which I'm dying

Are the best I've ever had

I find it hard to tell you

I find it hard to take...

I get it.

It's f***ing terrible.

It's a very, very...

Mad world

Mad world...

- I don't need to watch any more.

- Yes, you do, Casey.

This f***ing music...

I find it kind of funny

I find it kind of sad

The dreams in which I'm dying...

Look at the screen, Casey.

.. are the best I've ever had

I find it hard to tell you

I find it hard to take

When people run in circles

It's a very, very...

Mad.

The abuse went on and on.

It only stopped two weeks ago.

What happened two weeks ago?

Shut the f*** up.

Go on.

I would've heard about it.

Jennifer did not make

the front pages.

Cybersuicides aren't

what they used to be.

You...

You're lying.

I'm surprised you didn't

troll her memorial page.

'Sup, Casey?

Regrets?

B-Bu...

But she-she was unstable -

with her mum and who knows what

else was going on at home?

You were Jennifer Li's first troll.

You have to face up to that.

You can't seriously blame m...

I wonder what your friends will say

when they realise you started this.

Nobody knows Chronic

Youth is you, right?

Not even Megan.

Will she still be your BFF?

I think I know who you are.

I can't...

I can't even imagine what it must

be like to lose someone you love...

.. especially like this.

I've never lost anyone.

My mum...

She doesn't live with us.

Of course, you know that.

You know everything.

She's not well.

I know what it's like...

.. to have a mum...

who's different...

.. and isn't there for you.

I know what it's like to

go to school every day

and pretend there's not

a problem when there is.

And... anxiety? Well...

I...

I am so sorry.

SO sorry for what happened

to your daughter.

And it makes me feel sick

to think that I was one of

those people who hurt her.

Wrong. I am not Jennifer's father

Well, stepmum, or stepsister?

I know that I'd want

to get back at someone

if they ever tried to

hurt my little brother.

I am not Jennifer's sister, brother,

lover, or anyone who knew her.

WELL, WHO ARE YOU, THEN?!

Why are you doing this, you

pathetic f***ing loser?!

I'm back, Case.

Case?

Careful, Casey.

No daddy, Casey.

You in there?

I'm getting changed.

You going to bed?

What? No.

So what you getting changed for?

F*** you.

What?!

Nothing! I just...

Can I help you?!

I'm making you something

to eat, come downstairs.

I'll eat later.

Well...

.. just come down anyway.

Barcelona are playing.

What's wrong, Casey?

Can I come in?

No!

I'm fine. Please!

Did you have an argument

with Megan or something?

- Why would you even say that?

- I don't know!

How can I know what's going

on if you don't speak to me?

Dad! Just go!

Casey...

No! Dad, please!

What don't you understand

about privacy?!

Can't I just have a minute

to get changed?!

What is wrong with you?!

What is it you want from me?

You want me to admit I'm a bully?

I'm a bully.

You're recording this?

Of course you are.

Make sure you get this.

I...

take responsibility...

for Jennifer Li's suicide.

It was me.

You mean it?

I mean it.

Truth, Casey.

Promise.

Weird.

What's weird?

After all the build-up...

it feels kind of underwhelming.

I think it's because it's insincere.

I believe you'll wait

until I've gone away,

then tell everyone that's some crazy

hacker forced you to confess.

Well, what do you want me to say?

Nothing.

We need action, not words.

What action?

It's time to take your medicine.

I've already had my medication

for today, thank you.

There's going to be a second helping.

'Ask yourself a question, Casey.

'What will life be like

after I've posted this?'

But you said you wouldn't!

'Will it be worth living?'

I've done everything that you asked!

'I asked for three things.

'You've accepted you're a bully.

'You admitted you killed Jennifer Li.

'Now you have to make amends.

'The pills or the pictures.

'Either way, your life is over. '

F*** you.

'One pill, Casey. '

What?

'All you need to do to stop me from

tweeting this picture is swallow

'one of your little white pills. '

One?

'One pill, one picture. '

'I know what you're thinking, Casey.

'Did you shoot six topless

selfies, or only five?

'To tell you the truth,

in all this excitement,

'I've kind of lost track myself.

'In any case, five or six

pills won't kill you.

'We both know that.

'For this to work,

'we're going to need

some more photographs. '

Leave Megan out of this.

'Take one pill, or it gets tweeted...

'from your account. '

'Time's up. '

No!

'Next.

'Your BFF again. '

'One more pill won't hurt you, Casey.

'But it might spare Megan some hate.

'Time's up. '

'Wow. Bad friend. '

'How about this one?

'It's different when it's you, huh?'

'So, you're happy to pop pills to

save yourself from a slut-shaming.

'But you don't mind ruining

your BFF's life.

'Next.

'One pill.

'Wow. Loyalty!'

Ha-ha. You're funny(!)

'Har. Har. You too. '

Go on. Laugh some more.

I'll give you this one for free,

if you laugh at me again.

'O-M-F-A-O.'

No. Laugh at me properly,

you know, har har.

'Har. Har. Har. '

Slainte.

I wasn't the first, was I?
