Evidence

---

Reporter:
I hear there's a lot

of dead bodies and zero leads.

We're still processing

the crime scene.

When we have that information,

I'll let you know.

- (Reporters clamoring)

- How many victims? Do you have any leads?

Slow down, slow down.

We're getting reports that

there are multiple survivors.

- Can you confirm that?

- (Clamoring continues)

We'll be releasing

those details when we're ready.

Is it true you discovered cameras

at the scene of the crime?

As soon as we have answers,

I'll let you know.

Next question.

(All talking

at once)

...can you explain that?

As you know,

from the record

of this department,

we will not stop

until justice is served.

That's all

we have time for.

- (Clamoring continues)

- We'll release more information later.

When we know more,

you'll know more. Thank you.

Man:
That's all for now,

folks, thanks for coming.

There'll be another press conference later.

Thank you very much.

I wanna watch these videos.

What have we got on those bodies?

- Explosion corrupted half the forensics.

- Okay, what about I.D.'S?

Can't tell if the ones we do

have are male or female.

- Well, figure it out.

- Yes, ma'am.

Jesus.

- Go home, Reese. You're on leave.

- I want on the case.

I have enough on my plate.

I can't deal with your baggage.

Baggage. Is that

what you're calling it?

- I can help.

- We're doing fine.

- Yeah, 'cause Gabe called...

- you're not ready.

I spent three years

in the V.U.

I practically

wrote the manual.

You're not ready.

You need me.

You know what I can do.

Alex...

I need this.

Cavalry's arrived.

What's the eta

on the capture?

Reese, thought I was gonna

have to do this one on my own.

I got your back.

Where we at with the video?

Capture complete

in five minutes.

- How many hours are there?

- About three.

Formats?

Four cameras,

but the fire damage

is glitching the video.

I think it's

slowing down the capture.

Next time, copy it

to the hard drive

before the server,

it's faster.

Right. Yeah. Yes, sir.

Update on

our survivor?

Still unresponsive.

Third-degree burns,

massive lacerations to the head and neck.

I got a uniform standing by.

- The other one still with psych?

- There were two survivors.

Looking for some answers,

but it's gonna take a while.

Testimony after trauma

like this is useless anyway.

Witnesses lie,

the camera doesn't.

Capture's complete.

Popcorn's hot.

- Let's hope they caught something.

- They better have.

We got a pile of

dead bodies out there.

These videos could be

the best evidence we've got.

Okay. Do it.

(Garbled audio)

...is the man that holds

the power of God.

That is true greatness.

Oh, that wasn't

good, was it?

(Second woman

talking and laughing)

Is it too much?

I can't tell.

I'm a terrible actor.

Leann, if I was watching it,

I'd eat it up, so...

- Really?

- Literally. I would totally believe it.

Good. Then we got it.

You promised me

at least...

no, no, leann.

You said at least five.

You said...

All right, all right.

Hold on.

(People talking

indistinctly)

Woman:
It's beautiful.

What are you playing there?

- (Man answers indistinctly)

- What's it called?

- It's called...

- sh*t! Put it down!

- (Knocking on door)

- (Woman laughing)

(Footsteps approaching)

Surprise!

Oh, my God!

Man:
I can't believe

you got the part.

Oh, my God!

You're a shining star.

- Surprise!

- Surprise!

A little late,

but better late than never, right?

Did you do this?

Yeah. All single-handedly,

I might add.

Oh, really?

Oh, my God,

this is amazing, you guys.

Leann, you look

beautiful.

Such a nice light.

It's perfect.

What are you

thinking about?

Huh?

That just two years ago,

I was back home

in Kansas,

working at my dad's

flower shop.

I remember dreaming

of this moment.

Being up on the stage

was all I ever

thought about.

All those acting classes...

Then you

met me.

Now look at us.

I mean, you're filming

this documentary,

and if this play

goes well, this could be it.

What's the matter

then?

- Leann?

- Hmm?

- Give me that.

- No, no, no.

Last time,

you nearly broke it.

Okay, fine. Hi.

- Hi, Rachel.

- Hello, everyone.

Oh, is little

director shy?

- A little bit.

- Oh, but you're so cute.

You're so annoying.

Nobody wants to see me.

Oh, wow!

Don't get that close.

I see something

on your head.

There's all kinds of

disasters happening here.

Please let me just

film you again,

because you're what

everybody cares about.

No, but you're

so frickin' cute.

Compromise. We'll both

get in there, okay?

At least

you're in it.

Even though I look like a

goddamn goblin next to you.

Okay, so, America,

are you ready...

Oh, God.

For the story of

leann hookplat...

From the girl

next door...

- To America's...

- (Static)

Okay,

what's the deal?

The fire corrupted

a lot of the video.

Okay, fast-forward it to the truck yard.

That's all that matters.

No, no, no.

- We need to see the details,

the relationships. - It's not relevant.

- It doesn't matter.

- Everything on this tape matters.

You heard him.

All right.

The truth had cut me like

the grim reaper's blade itself.

Any man who wields

the power of life and death

is a man that holds

the power of God.

That is true greatness.

And though life

may be short,

and death sudden,

true greatness

lasts forever.

(Applause)

Oh, my God! There's

my little superstar.

Did you like it, really?

Of course. Look, I've got goosebumps.

I'm proud of you.

Do you think any of

this footage is gonna be good?

Are you kidding?

This is gonna be a priceless documentary.

You're gonna be

really famous.

Rach, you and me are gonna

make a movie together one day.

Just you and I.

It's gonna be a masterpiece.

- (Audience applauding)

- Get back out there. Take another bow.

- You gonna film it?

- Of course. Don't be stupid.

(Applause continues)

and I just wanna

take you away

can't wait

one more day

be your lover,

be your friend

be your everything

till the end

just let me

take you away

Will you make me

the happiest

musician in L.A.?

Audience:
Say yes!

(Whispering)

What are you doing?

I'm asking you

to marry me.

- What?

- Leann.

No, I can't.

(Audience members

groaning)

- Tyler, I'm... Ty...

- No, I'm fine.

Just talk to him,

I guess.

I'll make sure

that it gets to him, okay?

Hi, Tyler.

I tried to call you,

and Rachel said

you would watch this,

so... I'm sorry.

You just,

you caught me off-guard,

and I panicked.

I...

I didn't know

what else to do.

Um... hi.

I really think that

you should come,

and I simply can't

take no for an answer.

This is supposed to be

our big celebration.

I think it would be a real

shame to waste these tickets.

Um... I don't know.

I think we've got the room,

we've got the bus.

It'll all be

really fun.

I think you'll forget

about it in an instant,

and I know

she's really sorry.

She's been

really boring.

Um, please come.

I promise I'll be more
