COACH: Go! Go! Go! Go! Let's go!

All right! Come on, let's go!

Come on!

Let's go, go, go, go, go!

And pump.

Morning, Coach.

-Morning.
-Hey, uh, came out to tell you

a couple lights are burned
out in the locker room.

Uh, I tried to fix them
but, uh, no luck.

Um, I'm waiting on a
electrician to call me back.



But, uh, the bathroom's
nice and clean for you.

-Thanks, Rossie.
-Mm-hmm.

(Iow, electrical buzzing)

Ross?

Rossie?

Rossie?

Ross?

Hey!

Ross?

Hey! Hey!

Ross!

(growling)

What's going on?

-Ross!
-(growling)



No!

(screaming)

(muffled music playing)

(muffled music continues
through headset)

(distant): Help! Help!

Help...!

Oh, God, Coach.

Coach! Coach, I'm coming!

-(barking)
-(screaming)

Hang on, Coach!

-(growling)
-(screaming)

-Coach!
-Rossie!

No! Ow! Ow!

(screaming)

OPERATOR:
911. What's your emergency?

MAN:
There's a wild dog loose

at Millington Tennis Academy.

I think it killed somebody.

(vicious barking)

Good boy.

Oh, bad boy!

Bad boy! Back!

Walter!

Where are you
with the tranquilizer?!

Hey, hey, okay!
Okay, move over!

Move! Move!

Just shoot!

Sorry, buddy.

(gunshot)

(dog whimpering)

(thud)

(indistinct radio transmission)

TRIPP: Body of Ross Hemmet's
inside the locker room.

He's the facility's
custodial manager.

CAINE: Okay, can we have
a minute, please?

Mr. Hopper, Lieutenant Caine.

Can you tell us what happened?

Ross and I have been working
together for the last 18 years.

If he hadn't come running in
and opened that door, I...

CAINE: So, what
you're saying is,

someone locked you
inside with the dog.

That's exactly what I'm saying.

Who else knew you were here?

My routine is always the same.

I get here early
for a morning workout.

And then I shower
and hit the courts

for film breakdown
with the kids.

So, someone knew that routine,
didn't they?

If it hadn't been for Ross...

...it could have
been me in there.

He saved my life.

Yes, he did.

Why would somebody do this?

CAINE: I don't know

but you've clearly got an enemy.

# Yeah! #

# We don't get fooled again #

# Don't get fooled again #

# No, no! #

-Hey, here he comes!
-(reporters clamoring)

My condolences to our custodian,
Ross Hemmet's family.

He was a good friend,

and what happened here today

cannot be put into words.

(reporters clamoring)

REPORTER:
Again, for those of you

just joining us at this hour,

an employee on the campus
of world-renowned tennis coach

Larry Hopper's
Millington Tennis Academy

was killed this morning.

Sources close
to the investigation

are telling us that this was
an attack by a wild dog.

So what do we know about
our homicidal canine?

No tags, but he's
got these; check it out.

Battle scars, huh?

Some fresh... some old.

He's a fighting dog.

Yep,

which means Cujo here could be
worth a lot of money to someone.

Hey, Mitch, you got
your RFID scanner?

Yeah.

(chuckles)
RFID scanner? What's that?

SIMMONS: You're not an
animal owner, are you?

(laughs): No.

I got a fat goldfish and
a dying plant at home.

Yeah, I bet.

In case a pet
is lost or stolen,

there's an RFID chip implanted

usually behind the neck.

(beeping)

Stores all the owner's info.

Ooh.

-(beeping)
-We're in business.

(siren wailing)

Mason Torres?

Yeah.

The RFID chip in this dog says
you're its registered owner.

Oh, my God. That's Brutus.

What happened to him?
Is he okay?

Your dog, Brutus, killed a man

at Millington Tennis Academy
this morning.

Oh, God.

I hoped to find this
crazy dog, I just...

never imagined this.

You never imagined?

Based on the scars on that dog,

you got exactly
what you wanted, Mr. Torres.

DELKO: Looks like you
bred that dog to put him

on the fighting circuit
and make some cash.

I rescued this dog.

That's what I do, see?

I rescue fighting dogs
and retrain them.

I just never got a chance
with Brutus.

Here, look.

Someone broke in--

see?-- stole him.

Where were you this morning,
Mr. Torres?

I was in Palm Beach.

Doing what?

I was rescuing other dogs,
like this one.

Now, if that's a crime,

then arrest me.

DELKO: We're investigating
a murder here.

That attitude of yours,

you're walking
a fine line, Mr. Torres.

Anything yet?

Yeah, this racket is cracked.

BOA VISTA: Maybe it was used
for self-defense.

Maybe.

Wait, did you see this?

Look at that.

WOLFE: Huh.

WOLFE: That's how they locked
the doors.

They wedged the racket
in between the handles.

-(barking)
-No, wait! No!

Want to see what else
it can tell us?

Yeah.

No, not a single print,

fiber or biological
on this racket.

Doesn't mean the racket
won't talk to us.

Hi, Tom.

You realize you don't work
on this floor, right?

OWENS: Oh, no,
I actually called him.

Uh, you may not know
this about Tom, but

he was an amazing
tennis player in college.

Tom? Really?

T-This Tom was?

Yeah. I witnessed it firsthand.

We actually play on
the weekends sometimes.

You guys hang out on weekends?

You wanted me to look
at a tennis racket?

Yeah, please.

Is there something
that we're not seeing?

You'd be surprised
what a racket can tell you.

They're often
uniquely customized.

For example, this racket

did not belong to a beginner.

How can you tell?

Beginners use larger,
lighter rackets

with a bigger sweet spot
for power.

Graphite frame, hybrid strings,

to increase topspin accuracy
and distance.

(applause and cheering)

This racket is
custom made for a pro.

WOLFE: But there are a lot
of pros at that club,

so I don't know how
we'd narrow it down to just one.

String tension.

Every pro uses a totally
unique tension setting.

There's a Web site that lists
them by player.

(beeping)

Mm-hmm.

Cross string...

tension is...

52.6.

Main string...

54.3.

All right.

Oh, it says these tensions
are used by Jack Brody.

Says he's one of the top ranking
players in the world.

The Jack Brody?

Yeah.

He's amazing.

You know, I think a flyer

at my tennis club
said he's in town.

Here you go, boys.

Thanks.

CAINE: Jack Brody.

Yeah.

WOLFE: Jack,

your racket was used
in a murder.

I won two majors last year.

I hand my racket out
to a lot of people.

Souvenirs for fans.

CAINE: Fair enough.

Talk about Coach Hopper, Jack.

BRODY: The man can be
a little bit ruthless,

but he molded me
into a champion.

CAINE: Ruthless how?

Grueling three-a-days
under the Miami sun,

insisting on perfection.

Yeah, I'm sure he's got
his share of enemies.

You want to talk
about your injury?

(sighs)

I was up early
on my morning run.

I headed towards the showers,

and I heard all the screaming.

-Coach?
-By the time I got there,

the dog had already
finished off Ross.

He turned on me, took a nip,

and then ran off
when I whacked him.

(whimpering)

I called 911 right after that.

You can ask 'em.

Problem is, Jack,

why didn't you stick around
to talk to us?

Wow.

You see this?

That crazy mutt ripped
through my jacket

and nearly tore my arm off.

I just got back
from the hospital.

Five stitches

and rabies shots.

I tried to help the coach
and Mr. Hemmet,

and that is all I did.

All right?

#

#

(sighs)

He was robbing me blind.

I flush 40 grand a year

down the toilet
on his stupid academy,

Robbie still can't play tennis.

So you went into the men's
shower to find the coach?

Yeah.

I was demanding my money back.

-(shower running)
-Hopper!

Coach Hopper!

Mrs. Wells, this is
the men's locker room!

Yeah, I don't care
what room this is.

Robbie's not getting any better;
I want my money back.

Okay, well,
tuition is nonrefundable.

40 grand; he can't
even rush the net.

Well, it's all there
in your contract.

You know, the one you signed.

I'm gonna get
another coach who will

actually teach my kid something.

No coach in the world could

make your son
a better tennis player.

He is a scam artist.

So you just decided you're
gonna teach him a lesson?

You're gonna release
a wild dog on him today?

Oh, please.

Look at me--
I don't handle wild animals.

I wear them.

I just wanted my son

to play tennis.

I don't even like tennis, Mom.

You know, you might want to
listen to your son, Ms. Wells.

You can go.

Let's go, Robbie.

Seemed pretty pissed off
about the tuition.

You think the other parents
reacted the same?

I guess we'll find out.

HOPPER:
Come on, Alex. Oh, come on!

Come on, you can do
better than that.

Serve that same one
to him again. Come on.

Remember what hurts today
helps you win tomorrow.

CAINE: My sentiments exactly.

Janice Wells wanted
her tuition money back.

She the only one?

Not by a long shot.

You tell parents the
truth, that their kids

can't go the distance,
they go ballistic.

But they all know that
I don't keep that money.

Then where's it go?

Scholarship students.

You know, the ones that are
long on talent, short on dough.

That money becomes a
charitable tax write-off.

It's a win-win.

We need to check your records,

see which parents
you might've pissed off.

DUQUESNE: $80,000 tuition
deposit-- Jackson twins.

SIMMONS:
60,000 to a car dealership?

Coach bought a few cars for kids

who couldn't afford
transportation.

He always makes sure
everyone has an equal shot.

Wow, sounds like you got
a lot of respect for Coach.

I should.

I was a scholarship student
for ten years.

This camp raised me.

Hmm.

SIMMONS: Austin North.

Didn't you find a home
for him and his sister recently?

I did.

Pine Drive. That's their
foster mother's address.

How in the world could she
afford the 40 grand?

She didn't.

Austin's here on donations.

SIMMONS: Wow!

Hundred thousand dollars
miscellaneous expenditure?

That's from ten years ago.

You don't even need
to look at the screen?

You know which transaction
we're talking about?

You must know what it was for.

I'm not at liberty
to discuss it.

Okay, look.

You're a good employee,

you're very loyal to your coach.

I understand that,

but someone did try
and kill him today.

I showed you the ledgers,

and if you want the backup
docs, I'll have to ask Coach.

I'm late for an appointment.

Okay.

A hundred grand for
miscellaneous charges?

I think it's time
to define miscellaneous.

Hey, Walter, I'll catch up
with you at the car.

Okay.

-Excuse me.
-Oh.

Sorry.

No. Hi. I'm Calleigh Duquesne.

-I'm Stacy McCann.
-Nice to meet you.

l-I wanted to check in
and see if

I could locate one of your
students, Austin North.

Oh, yes, I know Austin.

Um, well, his age group
doesn't practice until 3:00.

Oh, okay. Well, thanks.

I'll come back.

Is there a particular reason

that you wanted
to speak with Austin?

We know each other
from a prior case,

and he's had a tough year.

I didn't want him to see us

and have it
bring back bad memories.

That's very thoughtful.

Well, would you like me to call
you as soon as I see him?

That'd be great.

Here's my card.

Thanks, Ms. McCann.

Thank you, Ms. Duquesne.

Nice to meet you.

Thank you.

(sighs)

(siren wailing)

Well, here they are--

Millington's financials
over the last 12 years.

Ah, waiting for that.

Let's hope
they kept good records.

Let's see,
'99, 2000, 2001, 2002.

-Missed one.
-Hmm?

Mm.

"MDPD." What's this?

Must've in been there
when I picked it up.

Addressed to us?

Yeah, it's a page
from a deposition transcript.

WOMAN: When did he first touch
you inappropriately?

BOY (echoing):
Coach Hopper invited me

into the locker room.

And then he locked the door
behind me.

He said no one would
believe me if I told.

Inappropriate touching?

Well, there's a motive.

Somebody wanted this kid
on the top of the suspect list.

Yeah, but his name is redacted.

Whoa, whoa.
Check this out, Sarge.

-It's dated February 2002.
-2002.

That was about the time

the academy shelled out
that hundred grand.

What do you want to bet

Coach Hopper paid to make
this lawsuit go away?

Yeah, till now.

CAINE: Time's up, Mr. Hopper.

That settlement was sealed
and confidential.

How did you get access to it?

Bringing all this up
just tarnishes the academy.

You didn't think
about that before

-you started abusing minors?
-LAWYER: Hold on.

A settlement does not mean
a crime in fact was committed.

Look, I work with a lot
of children.

That puts me in the crosshairs.

Sometimes parents put funny
ideas in their kids' heads

to try and get a payday.

And sometimes they don't.

Look, I didn't do anything,
but we all know

a false accusation
is as damning as a real one.

False or not,

the boy in that deposition
could be our killer.

We need the boy's name.

I can't.
l-I can't talk about it.

It's part of the agreement.

CAINE: You know, Mr. Hopper,

Mr. Hemmet gave up his life
for you today.

I think you owe him something.

What happened to Rossie
makes me sick.

He was a loyal employee

and a loyal friend.

Where's your loyalty?

You don't want to help us bring
your friend's killer to justice?

LAWYER: Mr. Hopper would

love to cooperate.

However, legally,
I cannot allow him

to give you the name
you're looking for.

We're done here.

HOPPER: I'm sorry, Officers.
I wish I could help.

What do you want to do?

I want to find the boy...

whatever it takes.

MAN (over P.A.):
Attention, yellow group.

Please report to court B.

Your lesson starts
in five minutes.

Attention, yellow group.

AUSTIN:
Does it have to be that family?

I thought maybe...

we would get to stay
with you for a while.

MAN (over P.A.):
Attention, yellow group.

Please report to court B.

Your lesson starts
in five minutes.

AUSTIN: Brenda, look!

BRENDA: What's she doing here?

Calleigh!

Oh, my gosh,
I am so glad to see you.

-Calleigh.
-You are getting so big.

Have you come
to watch me play tennis?

Coach Hopper said I could be
a professional one day.

I would love
to see you play tennis.

First I need to talk to Brenda
for just a minute.

Will you wait for me?

Yeah.

Did you come here
to check on Austin?

I did.

Yeah, I'm concerned about him.

Well, l-I assure you
he's in good hands.

Brenda, I'm sorry.

It's-it's not with you.

Um, how long
has Austin been coming here?

Since he first came
to live with me,

about six months.

Okay, I can't really give you

any specifics,
but there's somebody here

that's a danger to the kids.

And I think until we get
to the bottom of it,

it's best to keep Austin away.

I can't take him now.
I have to go back to work.

Would it be okay if I took him?

(sighs)

I don't know.

I'm the foster mom.

No, l-I understand, but it...

Look, I'll take him
for the afternoon.

You come home from work.

I'll call you;
I'll bring him right over, okay?

Okay.

But just for today.

Okay.

What's this?

I'll show you.

Cool.

(chuckles)

Can I try?

Of course, they're for you.

Cool.

So, hey, Austin, I'm
gonna be over there.

If you need me, just wave,
and I'll come back, all right?

All right.

DUQUESNE: Have you made
any headway on

who plaintiff is
in the deposition?

No, the county clerk
isn't returning my calls,

and, uh, this is a photocopy.

So any kind of ink enhancement

wouldn't give us
the redacted names.

Hmm.

Well, there's no reason
why that deposition

should have been in
with the financial papers.

Somebody wanted us to find it.

And in my experience,

even when people are
very careful with a document,

they will typically touch the
envelope with their bare hands.

It's all yours.

Thanks.

(buzzing)

Oh, yeah, got something
on the clasp.

(sighs)

Okay.

Ethyl alcohol, isopropanol,

glycerin and juniper.

That's hand sanitizer.

I always carry
a bottle with me.

Not the juniper type,
the other kind.

Lucky for us, I just met someone

who's more OCD than you are.

(sighs)

I can't tell you his name.

It just wouldn't be fair

to that poor kid

to be just dragged through
all of that again.

I understand that,

but you wouldn't have
sent us the deposition

if you didn't want us
to figure it out.

Well, yes, I wanted you to,
but that's why

I slipped it into
the file boxes anonymously.

All right.
Well, what about Coach Hopper?

How long do you think he's been

taking advantage
of the students?

Wait a minute.
I don't know that he has been.

Look, I don't know
what to think, okay?

There have been rumors,

but I've never actually
seen anything.

But the attack this morning...

Exactly!

If someone was willing to do
something so horrible, I...

I just want to keep
these kids safe.

If you give us the name
of the person in the deposition,

that is what you will be doing.

#

You neglected to mention
the settlement, Andrew.

Give me a minute, will you?

WOMAN: Yes, sir.

That was a long time ago.
I didn't think it was relevant.

But it is relevant,

son, because it keeps
you a suspect.

DELKO: Which is the reason
you didn't tell us.

One of Brody's rackets was used
in the attack on Coach Hopper.

You obviously have access
to a bunch of them.

This is a fund-raiser.

Look, you just don't get it.

Andrew, it's understandable
that you'd be upset after what

-Coach Hopper did to you.
-Please...

We need you to come forward
before more boys are destroyed.

Coach didn't do anything.

I read the deposition, son.

-I made it up.
-But why?

Why would you lie about it, son?

My parents forced me to.

They saw the chance to cash in
on Coach's fortune.

And you never came clean?

Why would I?

The settlement was sealed.
Coach knows the truth.

We just... put it behind us.

CAINE: Andrew, it's
the past for you,

but for other kids,

it's very much a part
of the present.

We need you to come forward.

No more hiding.

Sorry, but you got it wrong.

If Coach really did
all those things,

why would I still
be working for him?

Just heard from H.

According to Andrew,

there was no motive
for him to attack Hopper.

Now, if that's true,
and the motive wasn't abuse,

what is it?

I have no idea.

I think we need to call in

some current
Millington students.

Maybe they can point us
in the right direction.

Yeah, maybe someone saw
some altercation or something.

In the meantime, we do have
a student here to interview.

You gonna be okay with that?

Yeah, I'll talk to him.

Okay.

Oh, hey, that's looking good.

Thanks.

So, Austin, I want to hear
about your tennis coach.

-Coach Hopper?
-Mm-hmm.

I actually like Coach Jack
the best.

-Jack Brody?
-Mm-hmm.

You know he's been on TV?

I heard that. It's pretty cool.

Mm-hmm.

He always waits with me

until Brenda comes
and picks me up.

And he gave me this really cool
cell phone.

He did?

Here. See?

It's so cool.

Wow.

Yeah.

(keypad beeps)

What did he say to you
when he gave you the phone?

That I could call him anytime,

and no matter what,

he'd meet me.

Oh.

Don't tell Brenda, okay?

Coach Jack told me
not to tell her.

Hey, sweetie,
I need to tell Brenda.

Do you know why?

No.

You should never trust an adult
who asks you

to keep a secret for them, okay?

You didn't do anything wrong,

but he shouldn't do that.

I need to take this
with me for a minute,

but I'll be back.

Sure.

You think Jack Brody
is abusing boys?

He's spending all this time
with Austin.

He bought him a cell phone.

He told him to keep it a secret.

I think that it is possible
that Brody is grooming him.

Is Austin okay? Do you think
he actually got to him?

No, I don't.

He's not showing
any signs of trauma.

But that still doesn't explain

why somebody would try
to kill Hopper.

Maybe Coach Hopper knew
Brody's secret.

And then still invited him
to teach at the academy?

He's a big draw.

It's business.

Sometimes money trumps morality.

Maybe. You know what?

Let's take another look
at the evidence.

Okay.

#

What is that?

Antemortem bite wound.

I know that.

Inside it.

You see it? Right under
that flap of skin.

It's definitely foreign.

Appears to be a piece of fabric.

-(snarling)
-(screaming)

Could have been introduced
by the canine's teeth.

It's bright blue.

(dog barking)

White residue.

Likely some kind
of screen print.

Hopefully, that helps.

It does.

I know who our killer is.

That's what the warrant was for?

JACK: My jacket?

It's a match.

DUQUESNE: Jack Brody, you're
under arrest for the murder

of Ross Hemmet and the attempted
murder of Larry Hopper.

Maybe you shouldn't have picked
a weapon that could bite back.

I already told you
the dog bit me

when it chased me
out of the showers.

Jack, your timeline is wrong.
If the dog had bit you after,

then why was your jacket
in Ross's wound?

Math only works
if you were bit first;

when you let the dog loose.

(barking)

(yells)

No, wait!

All right, I want a lawyer.

Fine, you can call
a lawyer, but let me

tell you something.
Once a jury hears

that you tried to kill a man

because he knew
you were a pedophile...

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

I'm no pedophile!

Then why are you
giving Austin gifts?!

-What, the cell phone?
-Yes.

-Look, the kid hasn't got
anybody! -He's got me.

Well, he's got me, too, and
I wanted him to lean on me!

I wanted him to be able
to get away from...

SIMMONS: From what?

Jack?

From Coach Hopper.

That's why I would hang
with Austin after camp,

so Hopper couldn't.

Are you telling me that
Coach Hopper is a threat?

When I went
to Millington Academy,

there was rumors about Coach.

A teammate he would take
special interest in

would start acting weird.

Reclusive.

And then one night,

my roommate told me
that Coach abused him.

And I didn't believe him.

But when I saw him
with Austin...

Thanks.

Do you really think
I've got what it takes?

I do.

In fact, I think
you should start sticking

around after class,

work on that forehand.

Story's exactly the same.

So I approach Coach.

I know what you're planning
to do with Austin

in that locker room,
and I'm calling the cops.

Go ahead, Jack.

But let me tell you
how it's gonna go down.

I'm gonna call
one of my good friends

at the State Attorney's office,

and they're gonna have
the charges dropped.

-Then I'll go to the news.
-You go to them,

and you tell them
whatever you like.

'Cause then I'm gonna
go to my friend Grant.

You know Grant.

He's a board member.

Well, he owns a publicity firm.

And he's gonna spin this

and leak stories about you
that'll end your tennis career.

-I don't care about that, Coach.
-Good.

Because whether you have
a career or not,

I'm gonna still run this place.

Look, this would have
gone on forever.

l-I had to do something.

An innocent man
was killed, Jack.

No one else
was supposed to be there.

It was an accident.

I wish you'd have
come to us first.

(elevator bell dings)

My guess is, all this evidence,
your boyfriend over there

at the ASA's got a slam dunk
on this case, huh?

Yeah, maybe.

But I'm more interested
in Coach Hopper.

Gotta prove that those kids
are being abused by him.

I think we should interview
that Andrew Kingman kid.

-Hey, buddy. Easy.
-(barking)

-Whoa, geez!
-Geez!

OWENS: What is wrong with you?

I'm like a chew toy
to these dogs.

OWENS: Maybe it wasn't you
he was after.

It's the janitor's clothes.

It's the janitor's clothes.

There you go.

Got alpha-2u-globulin
all over the janitor's vest.

Pheromones?

HOPPER: Hey! Rossie!

OWENS: Used to establish
dominance among canines.

-No!
-Provokes aggression.

So Ross Hemmet, the janitor,
was being targeted.

And I bet we'd find
those pheromones

on Hopper's towel, too.

Except Jack said that
Ross's death was accidental.

And how would he even get
ahold of the pheromones?

You know what?

I think I know someone
who might have access to that.

Yeah.

(sirens wailing)

What are you guys
standing around here for?

You heading home, William?

The name is Mason.

No, it's not. It's William Diaz.

Says so right here in the photo.

So what?

I changed my name.
That's not a crime.

Killing people is a crime.

Now, Jack Brody told us that
his roommate had been abused

by Coach Hopper, and
we think that's you.

WOLFE: So you gave Jack
a vicious dog,

then you faked a break-in
to cover your tracks.

Larry Hopper is a freak.

I tried to forget about
what he did to me.

I was almost succeeding

till Jack came by
a few days ago.

I'm sorry I didn't believe
you about Coach, all right?

-Look, I was a kid,
I didn't understand. -Yeah?

What do you want me to say?

-Want me to say thank you? Huh?
-Hey!

Too little, too late,
you understand?!

No, no! I'm working at
the academy right now!

All right? I saw him with a kid.

Oh, yeah? You're surprised? Huh?

You saw him with a kid?
That's right!

Guys like him can't stop!

Get out of my face.

No, we're gonna stop him.

We're gonna stop him.

The man deserves to die.

And what about Ross Hemmet?

You and Jack think he
deserved to die, too?

Is that why you covered
his clothes with pheromones?

(spritzing)

MASON: Jack didn't know about
that. I did that on my own.

Did Ross abuse you, too, Mason?

No...

but what he did was just as bad.

You're not supposed
to be in here.

Help me.

Please.

We're okay here, Rossie.

I asked him for help,
and he didn't do anything.

He didn't do anything.

He just stood there.
You understand?

He didn't do anything!

CAINE: You're under arrest,
Mason, for the murder

of Ross Hemmet and the attempted
murder of Coach Hopper.

I wanted to save those kids
from what I went through.

-(handcuffs clicking)
-Understand?

I understand.

Yeah?

I do. Take him.

DUQUESNE: This makes me so
mad.

These guys are gonna
go to prison,

and the abuse they tried
to stop will continue.

What do we do?

Mason agreed to take the stand,

but he's not a reliable
witness; he's a felon.

Yeah.

Coach Hopper will walk

unless we find another
victim to come forward.

Wait a minute. We know one.

BOA VISTA:
Andrew, we need your help.

We know that lawsuit
wasn't about

your parents getting money.

It really happened.

We need you to stop covering
for Coach Hopper.

But he wasn't a monster
like you're saying.

He was only trying to help me;

to make me better.

BOA VISTA:
Well, that's what he told you.

That's what he wanted
you to believe.

But you know in your heart
that that's not true.

Andrew, now is your chance.

You can protect the children
at the academy

the way somebody
should have protected you.

(sighs)

I was 12...

when he first...

I thought it was my fault.

Then it just started
to feel normal.

Like it was supposed
to be this way.

I just didn't want
to make him mad.

I looked up to him so much.

Coach Hopper knows that kids
tend to blame themselves.

He relies on that.

He preys on that,
that innocent confusion.

Look, I want to help you.

I do.

But I can't say any
of this on the record.

I signed a nondisclosure
agreement, remember?

Did the abuse stop
after you signed the agreement?

Andrew,

anything that happened
after that date

is not covered by the agreement.

Do you understand
what I'm saying?

Don't let him keep this power
over you.

You can do this.

You can stand up to him.
Stand up for yourself.

REPORTER:
Larry Hopper, a respected coach

at the Millington
Tennis Academy,

was taken into custody today

and charged with multiple
counts of child molestation

after another employee at
the academy, Andrew Kingman,

came forward
and told authorities

that he'd been
one of Mr. Hopper's victims

some ten years ago.

ANDREW: I hope that
my experience will help

to give anyone who has ever
been a victim of abuse

the courage to come forward.

Watching Coach Hopper
in this moment,

I feel vindicated.

He's coming. He's coming.
They're bringing out Hopper now.

Cover my face
with my jacket, please.

You've been covered up
long enough.

(reporters clamoring)

-WOMAN: There he is!
-That's him!

MAN: Coach Hopper!

Coach Hopper, how long
has this been going on?

(clamoring continues)

Coach Hopper, any response
to these accusations?

MAN: You'd better pray
I don't get my hands on you!

(clamoring continues)

WOMAN: You're a monster, Hopper!

Coach Hopper, any remorse
for what you've done?

MAN: Yeah, have fun
in prison, Hopper!

WOMAN: Hey, dirtbag!

Oh, my God! He's got a gun!

(gunshots)

MAN: Get down!

(people screaming)
