Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (1999–…): Season 1, Episode 21 - Nocturne - full transcript
The trial of an accused child molester is jeopardized when the prime witness has difficulty dealing with his past.
In the criminal justice system,
sexually-based offenses
are considered
especially heinous.
In New York City, the
dedicated detectives
who investigate these
vicious felonies are members
of an elite squad known
as The Special Victims Unit.
These are their stories.
Clerk: Guy dropped these
off about 45 minutes ago.
Photomat down the street just
closed. Never seen this guy before.
What's his name?
Holt, Larry Holt...
had a coupon.
Rep came in... gave us
a talk about these things,
told me to call if I
saw something weird.
This is kid is posed. Look at the
way he's looking at the camera.
Yeah, that's it.
Open bottle of alcohol...
"Endangering the Welfare of a Child."
You don't think this is
enough to make an arrest?
No, "EWC" is all
we can arrest him on.
We're going to have a hard
time proving this is child porn.
But my gut feeling is,
this is the tip of the iceberg.
Guy gets one whiff of us and
he's going to clean out everything.
So let's follow him for a few
weeks, and don't waft his way.
What's going on here?
So much for not
"wafting his way."
- Are these your photos?
- Yes.
Stabler: Where there's one
photo, there's a hundred more.
You don't even have "EWC."
That kid is clearly under 18,
that bottle is clearly over 80 proof.
You don't know that. You
can't prove that's not apple juice.
You can't prove he drank from the
bottle. He could have found a stash.
- Which is "EWC."
- You jumped the gun.
We didn't have another choice.
Holt knew we were detectives.
- If there are other photos...
- And there are.
He would've gone straight
home and destroyed 'em.
There's nothing in these photos
that we can do anything about.
Captain, take a look at this.
- Middle of winter... kid is wearing hot pants.
- They're shorts.
- Shorts that ride up
too high on his legs.
- He had a growth spurt.
Someone had to tell that kid to drop
his chin and smile. That's not normal.
Unless you're in
a beauty pageant.
It's a boy. How many boys
you know go "Jon Benet"?
All right, keep going.
The pose, the look...
These are learned, these are
taught, and not by other kids.
The kind of guy who takes these
pictures, is going to keep these.
He's going to cherish
'em, collect 'em.
How's the kid in these
photos related to Holt?
Guy's a piano
teacher, he's a student.
Stabler: These are
sexualized photos.
Pedophiles keep evidence
of their sexual acts.
I know there are more
pictures in Holt's apartment.
I suppose you want a
warrant, based on your "ESP"?
Yeah, I do.
This is post-McMartin, people.
Any judge worth her salt will throw
out Holt's arrest at his arraignment.
Captain Cragen?
My client has informed me
that you took his watch,
his wallet, his house keys.
We voucher all personal
property at the time of arrest
to prevent theft
or accidental loss.
- I need those keys.
- Cragen: Why?
- To get in that house.
- Tell me why.
- Need to feed the dog.
- The dog will be fine.
- Where are my client's keys?
- Property clerk.
You did make a run
to the property clerk?
- In about two hours.
- There is something
in Holt's apartment.
I'll put a uniform on the door.
You get a probable
cause, you get a warrant.
- What about
the kid in these photos?
- It's a small neighborhood.
Let's go.
The building's sealed.
Who the hell are you to
tell me I can't go in there?
My lieutenant told
me to not let anyone in.
- You can't stop me.
- I can, and I am.
Excuse me, Is there
a problem here?
Yes. Hi. Hi.
This officer is preventing
me from entering my house.
- You live here?
- No, my father lives here.
Then I'm sorry, these
premises are secured.
Do you have a warrant?
It's before a judge, and until she
rules, we'll be locking this place down.
Thank you. You're welcome.
- Cop: They got a money tree
in this place, what?
- We don't know.
This whole place
belongs to Holt?
Nice place.
It's too nice. Where's a piano
teacher get that kind of money?
A rich white guy moves into this
neighborhood? Not by accident.
You think it's an accident that he lives
across the street from an elementary school?
Excuse me!
Whoa! How you doing?
Where you going?
I have a piano lessons.
So, Jonathan, is
Mr. Holt a good teacher?
Yeah, you know, good. Yeah?
Did he ever touch you
when you were playing?
Yeah, he keeps his hand
on my back. It's for posture.
Did that ever make
you feel uncomfortable?
My dad said it's okay.
Look, that teacher's like
that with all his students.
- You go to his lessons?
- I work late.
- So who are his students?
- Kids in the neighborhood.
- Boys and girls?
- Girls? Please.
Okay.
Jonathan, did Mr. Holt take pictures
of you while you were playing?
Yes, but he has a whole
lot of other pictures.
He calls them "snappies."
"Snappies"?
Did he ever show
you these "snappies"?
No, I found 'em.
Where?
I turn the page on
the music stand,
and a whole bunch
of snappies fell out.
Are they like the
snappies he took of you?
No, those boys in the snappies
didn't have any clothes on.
Well, there's your
probable cause.
We're not going to get
a nighttime exemption.
If we don't hit that door by 9:00,
we're not gonna get in until 6:00 a.m.
Holt's lawyer's
pushing for arraignment.
We lose that
uniform in two hours.
We don't get into that house
tonight, someone else will.
You two go file the warrant.
I'll page Judge
Rothman. She owes me.
We'll go in while
the ink is drying.
"Photos, negatives,
slides, cameras,
photographic equipment,
books, magazines, xeroxes,
and printed material at the
residence of Lawrence Holt,
30 East 112th Street."
Wait, let's add
videotape and film.
Adding "video cassettes,
videotape, and film." Anything else?
It's three till 9:00.
You got your warrant.
You got it? Great.
We got it. Open it up.
It's pretty quiet in here.
Munch: Maybe the dog died.
Jeffries: What is this place?
Munch: The lesson room.
Okay.
- Boy: Please don't.
- Holt: It's okay.
Boy: No, that hurts.
And 43 photos in the
album were obscene?
Yes, Your Honor.
Your Honor, may I?
Briefly.
I understand that the court is
under tremendous political pressure
to punish child abusers to
the fullest extent of the law.
Somehow, it never seems enough.
Based on the evidence found, the
defendant is hereby charged with:
endangering the
welfare of a child;
use of a child in a
sexual performance;
promoting an obscene
sexual performance by a child.
- How many tapes did you find?
- Last count was... 157.
Impressive, Mr. Holt.
44 counts of possessing obscene
sexual performance by a child.
Your Honor, the people
have clearly not had
the opportunity or the time to
inventory each videocassette.
Then we will all dread
the discovery process.
Bail is denied,
defendant is remanded.
- Are you ready to start?
- Come play it with me.
Okay, let's go.
Is this the tape you
found in the VCR?
Yeah.
Munch: This goes back 13 years.
Holt: Okay.
- Boy: Please don't.
- Holt: It's okay.
Boy: No, that hurts.
You scamp! I didn't know
you were going to do that.
Good for you!
What is this, Holt's
Greatest Hits"?
How many kids are there?
Please don't.
Holt: You have so much talent,
but you need to learn restraint.
Technique is discipline.
Youth: Not now, not again.
That's not a different kid.
It's the same person.
Grown up.
That was very good.
I felt your passion.
Thank you.
Did you see the tape?
We usually just
hear about it after.
To actually see it...
There's a lot
more to go through.
There could be 50,
maybe 100 more kids.
I'll do it.
You got Holt arraigned on
possession and promoting, all right?
We have to get back in there. We need
his computer, day planner, his schedule.
Wait a minute, what about abuse?
No, no, to do that, you need a
complainant. You need an actual kid.
We need that kid.
Okay, let's go.
Looks familiar, but I
don't know his name.
Does your son take piano
lessons from Mr. Holt?
No, not yet. My son, he
doesn't like music very much,
but I've been talking
to Larry about that.
Larry says it's never
too late to develop an ear.
Yeah, sure. Plays piano.
- Know who you
should ask about him?
- The piano teacher.
Yeah, Larry Holt...
Lives across the way.
He knows every kid
in this neighborhood.
- What do you know about him?
- Guy's a piano teacher.
Little fruity, but, you know.
Fruity?
Yeah, always touches everything,
everyone, but, you know.
- No, I don't know.
- None of my business.
Was there something going on?
Why you care?
You're only here after
something happens.
I'm here now.
Then that's your business.
Holt rent a lot of
children's videos?
I'll tell you right now, he's one
of the most decent guys I know.
He gave my kids
piano lessons for free.
Really? What did your
kids say about him?
That he was strict.
But they like him.
Anything going
on, they'd tell me.
You don't know Larry Holt.
He takes kids and sees
what they have in them,
that they can do anything.
- You see that kid?
- Mm-hmm.
His name is Rey
Guzimano, heard of him?
No. Man can he play.
Holt one of his teachers, too?
You know, Holt makes a
difference in people's lives.
A hell of a lot more
than you ever will.
- Jeffries: People knew.
- Maybe they're just trying
to be optimistic.
It's not the same
as covering up.
Yeah, they're busy. They're
trying to keep everything together.
Food on the
table, their families.
If they faced the truth, what kind
of parents does that make them?
- Did you talk to her?
- I don't think so.
Hold on.
- I bet I know
what you're thinking.
- Bet you don't.
Even the best parents
can't protect their children.
Gutter at home... part of
its broken, I need to fix it.
Well, you can't do everything.
You'd feel everything
for 'em, if you could...
All the pain.
You know, sometimes I just
look at kids and I think, "Why?
Why do it at all?"
Because you want to more
than anything in the world.
Because you want to
love them every day.
Where is that?
Hello?
Stabler: Excuse me. Hey!
How did you get in here?
I have a set of
keys. Who are you?
I'm Detective Benson, this is
my partner Detective Stabler.
- What's your name?
- Evan.
Evan, the way you play, it's...
- Beautiful.
- It's nice, yeah.
Thanks. Can I help you?
Stabler: Yeah, we're
looking for this person.
It's a three-year program.
- When's your audition?
- Three days.
- You nervous?
- Yeah, it's Julliard.
But if I get in, it'll be
all thanks to Mr. Holt.
- Yeah, what do you mean?
- Mr. Holt's a great teacher.
- Why?
- Because he pushes you.
Benson: How?
Makes you practice a lot, so that
way you can develop strong technique.
How else did he push you?
I don't know, I guess, just
makes you practice a lot.
- How long have you
been playing piano?
- Forever, I guess.
But Mr. Holt's been really good
to me. He taught me for free.
I need to ask you about
your piano teacher,
about what he did to you.
What do you mean... what he
did to me? He hasn't done anything.
Evan, I want you to know that everything
you're feeling is totally normal.
It's okay, but you got
to tell us what happened.
- Elton John.
- Huh?
My mother would play his "Greatest
Hits, Volume One," over and over.
His voice... when it
would get really high...
If I could sing like he
could, I would, but I can't,
so I learned how to play.
How old were you the
first time you had sex?
I haven't yet.
Mr. Holt didn't...?
Evan, Mr. Holt hurt you.
No, he didn't.
He's never touched you?
Never.
He pushed me...
He raised the bar,
and I met it each time.
- He doesn't know
he was videotaped.
- We should show him the tape.
If we take away this kid's denial, are
we going to stick around for the fallout?
- There are people...
- For as much pain as
this kid's been through,
there's an equal amount
just waiting for him.
Is it enough to try Holt for
possessing and promoting child porn?
- He's guilty of a lot more.
- And possession and promoting,
even with "EWC" tacked on,
is still only going to
bring seven years.
That's why a jury's
got to see the tape.
Seeing that tape, I'll tell ya, it's
going to wreck that child's life.
Elliot, he is not a
child, he's an adult.
Hello, Evan. May I have a seat?
Evan: Yeah.
What you're going to see, is
going to be very hard for you.
What happened on
this tape is wrong,
and the man who did it
deserves to be punished.
We can't do that, Evan, without the
help of the other person on this tape.
- Are you ready to start?
- Come play it with me.
Okay. Let's go.
Holt: That's good.
- What's this?
- Holt: Now watch your tempo.
Arch your fingers.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
Now remember your posture.
Keep your shoulders back.
No. No. Turn it off!
- No.
- Cragen: It's okay. It's all right, son.
No! Shh, shh. Evan.
No...!
No.
Holt moves into the neighborhood,
somehow manages to blend in.
He didn't blend
in, he stood out.
That's exactly what
these kids, Evan, need.
Somebody to love them.
Be a part of his world.
Rich. Educated.
White.
- What did he do?
- Benson: He didn't
do anything, ma'am.
Then why you
want to talk to him?
Have you ever heard
your son play piano?
Sure, you know. He's real good.
Yeah. So?
That's what we want
to talk to him about.
If you're from
that fancy school,
you better talk to him about
who's going to pay for this.
Stabler: How did
the audition go?
Can you tell us who these
other kids are in the photos?
Yeah. Oh, my mom.
- Yeah, families.
- Yeah.
- You know, not nice
like Larry's place, eh?
- Never been there.
Yeah, but the
cabinet doors close.
And there's a piano
at the middle school,
and it's missing a "D" flat.
- And it's always out of tune.
- Holt's got a nice piano.
I guess there's a price to
pay for everything, huh?
For him, too. That's why we need
you to tell us who these kids are.
Holt's my teacher,
and he cares about me a lot.
He even bought
me a coat one year.
I know it's hard, but it's okay.
No, it's not.
If you don't help us, Holt goes
right back to giving those lessons.
Holt always said I
wasn't ready to leave.
I mean, I'm no Rey
Guzimano. I still live here.
You know how old he was when
he came out with his first CD? 17.
- So what?
- You know how old I am?
- Almost 21.
- Some prodigy.
Julliard took in a 41-year-old
flute player last fall.
Guy was a monk.
It's not too late.
It's not?
That's Caesar.
Know where he is? Jail.
His gun accidentally went off
when a dry cleaner was
opening up his cash register.
That's Ricky. He's a junkie.
And that's Tony.
Know where he is?
Nobody does.
And me...
you know, I still live here.
But that's "okay."
- Holt didn't have a computer.
- No evidence anyone helped him?
No set schedule, no daytimer.
- The tapes have dates on them.
- Starting dates of the lessons.
And his current students
in the neighborhood?
- Nobody's talking.
- This case is being
fast-tracked.
And we've indicted Holt
separately for abuse against Evan.
How many counts? Just two.
What? We can only
go back five years.
Wait a minute, that
law changed in '96.
Child abuse can be
prosecuted up to five years
after the child's 18th birthday.
That's still a lot
more than two counts.
But there's no grandfather
clause for abuse before '96.
So everything that Holt did to Evan up
until the time he was 16, inadmissible.
- Anything over 17...?
- Is consensual.
- Please, huh?
- And that's only one year
of what happened to him.
- Right now, that's all we have.
- We may not even have that.
So our star witness
may not even testify?
He's afraid of betraying Holt.
He's worried that people
are going to hate him.
So we'll talk to the
kids that Evan knows.
Caesar, the lifer;
Ricky, the junkie.
Oh boy.
Nah, nothing ever happened.
He never touched you? No.
Why did you stop playing piano?
I didn't have the
technique, or discipline.
Man, it's cold.
Why don't you come
back to the station with me?
Get warm. We can talk there.
Holt's place was warm.
Door was always
open, never locked.
Never?
If it was, you come back.
Go inside. Get warm.
Eat a meal... sugar cookie.
I miss that part.
- You're his most
successful student.
- I owe him a lot.
And you owe it to the
community to testify.
- I don't owe
that community anything.
- You're still a part of it.
I just go there to see my mom.
Holt got away with
this for almost 20 years.
Holt was the only person that
ever told me I could do something.
- You know what that's like?
- Yeah. Yeah, I do.
You know there's only like
three ways to get out of there.
Either you're smart
enough to figure it out,
you get out on your
own, which isn't me,
or you die there.
Or you can do something, you
know, handle a ball, play the piano.
No one's going to
take that away from me.
- Why won't you talk to me?
- Because he's my father.
You still here?
Yeah.
Can you sleep?
I close my eyes,
I see those tapes.
Every frame. Go home, John.
Yeah, back to dead
people... Homicide.
It's much more
clear cut, simple.
Back to photographs.
Bodies bent, broken.
Bodies that don't
talk back to you.
- Look at you.
- You don't get attached.
Exactly.
Of course, you
retired in Baltimore,
a few months later,
found yourself here...
Another squad
room, another case.
This time I'll do a
better job of quitting.
Yeah, running's good.
I don't need this.
Go home, John.
Take care of yourself.
I got two more tapes to watch.
"With a wink of his eye,
and a twist of his head...
Soon gave me to know
I had nothing to dread...
He spoke not a word, but
went straight to his work,
and filled all the stockings..."
Are our stockings
going to be filled tonight?
I'm only going to tell
you one more time.
Christmas comes once
a year, it is now February.
- Give me the phone, honey.
- By why, Daddy, why?
Yeah, why can't Christmas
come all the time?
Because Santa's credit
cards are all maxed out.
That's why.
Stabler.
Hey, Evan, how you doing?
- Evan?
- Shh. What?
Okay. I'll tell you what,
you just stay there.
No, stay there and...
I'll be there as soon as I can.
Okay.
Evan: My mom threw me out.
She said she didn't want
some faggot living at her place.
- I didn't know
who else to call.
- That's okay.
I hate that everything's
always okay, you know?
I know some places that
give emergency housing.
They can help you
get on your feet.
How's the job?
The hot water cracks my skin.
Hurt my hands.
So you've quit the
dishwashing business?
No. I got fired.
I think I want to testify.
That's good. Real good.
You think I'm gay?
I don't know. It's
not for me to say.
Evan: I mean, I've never ever
had a girlfriend or anything.
Maybe you don't know yet,
it's not something you choose.
Besides, there's a
big difference between
homosexuality and pedophilia.
Which is what?
Which is... homosexuality
is none of my business.
What was done to you...
I was forced... that's
what you're trying to say?
Yeah...
only...
why didn't you stop
taking those lessons?
I thought...
I didn't think I had any choice.
Well, whatever
person you choose...
should be your choice.
And my guess is, when you're
ready to see someone that way...
you will.
It'll mean something to
you, and it'll come from you.
And it won't be about
what was done to you.
And it won't be my fault?
Fault? It's supposed
to be about love.
Elliot, you all right?
Yeah.
How's it going?
Going.
What's going on at work?
Nothing.
You talk to Olivia about it?
She's my partner.
How can we make
Evan feel comfortable?
- We just spent two hours
rehearsing his testimony.
- How'd that go?
You know the way
he answers questions,
almost as if he wanted
to say the right answer,
if there were a right
answer, just like a kid.
He is, emotionally, sexually.
This kid shut down
at eight years of age.
When I do have
kids on the stand,
I do like to do a
courtroom prep.
Cool.
Okay. Okay. That's
enough, "Wapner."
Last, and most important.
Where you will sit.
I don't get to come here at all?
'Cause you're a witness,
- you might get contaminated
by watching the whole trial.
- Contaminated?
Trust me, you got a lot better things
to do than hang out here all day.
Now, when you're up here,
I want you to answer the
questions, just like we practiced.
And when you answer, I
want you to speak loudly,
and look at me, and only at me.
What about when his
lawyer asks me questions?
You just answer the questions.
Everything else, ignore.
Just hear music.
Hey, John.
You think it's a
conscious choice?
What, Holt?
- What are you talking about?
- Yeah, Holt.
- What makes a perp a perp?
- Who cares?
Some people say the frontal lobe
is our body's armor
against impulses.
- Okay, Holt has a bad lobe.
- You think he was abused?
You know, John,
I really don't care.
It's just another excuse
as far as I'm concerned.
This guy hurt a lot of kids.
That's what I care about.
What's going on with you?
I got something to show you.
That's good. That's real good.
Keep your wrists up, okay?
Larry: No, no. Evan, he's
having trouble with the music.
He doesn't feel it.
He's ready to start learning.
He's ready.
Can you show him?
- Boy: What are you doing?
- Evan: Just keep playing.
- Hasn't this kid been
through enough already?
- How can you say that?
You, who when we watched those
tapes were ready to throttle the guy.
And you were the one
who was telling Evan
that everything was
going to be okay.
It is okay, if he's the
victim, not the abuser.
- He's both.
- Who's next?
Evan hurts another
kid, we are responsible.
Give it a few years, we'll
have another Holt on our hands.
The same laws that
bind Holt, bind Evan too.
Mark, it's Don Cragen.
I think you better
get down right away.
Larry said that Jonathan
didn't feel the music.
He said, "How can you
play a piece about longing,
when you haven't felt that?
Jonathan was playing
"The Entertainer."
It's the way I
learned how to play.
What are you going to
do with your talent now?
Look at me.
How many times did this happen?
Once. That's it.
Don't lie to me.
That was the only time.
- You committed a crime.
- And deserve to be punished.
You still want to
testify tomorrow?
You're going to be
arraigned this afternoon.
Am I going to jail?
We probably could make a deal.
What...?
You don't think it's fair
we give this kid a deal?
Fair?
I don't know what I
know anymore, you know?
Yeah, I mean we're stuck
right in the middle of this thing.
We watch that boy on
tape, a victim being subjected
to thing that no child
should ever have to suffer.
Who are you talking
about, Jonathan or Evan?
All right, point taken. But
I was talking about Evan.
He was abused, and then
he turns around and does it.
An excuse.
You think that's
all it is, an excuse?
I think, it relieves him
of an awful lot
of responsibility.
The idea that abuse
begets abuse, begets abuse,
is a rationalization
that's been used
by countless defense lawyers.
But in this case, it
also happens to be true.
He had a choice.
Yes. Evan, the
adult, had a choice.
- And he committed a crime.
- And we're cops.
And we'll deal with that.
But you see, what's eating you,
is Evan the little boy.
The boy on the tape.
What choice did he have?
Judge: Bail is set at 25,000.
- Your Honor...
- I think that's more
than fair.
It is fair, and we appreciate
the court's generosity.
But, may we approach the bench?
Your Honor, my
client can't make that.
So he spends the night
in jail like anyone else.
Your Honor, the People are right
now in the middle of trying Larry Holt,
Evan is our key witness.
- When is he testifying?
- Tomorrow.
Stress of spending the night in
jail will probably affect his testimony.
All right, then. Until his
testimony is completed,
I'll release Evan into
the custody of the People.
You hate me, don't you?
I don't hate you.
- Well, what you said
in the diner that night...
- Yeah, that was before.
Look, what happened
to you is terrible.
I look at you and I try seeing
that little child being abused.
Only...
Only now you see an abuser.
Yeah. Yeah, I do.
I see a guy that... if you
ever came near my child...
My kid must have
put that in there.
He's determined to make
Christmas come every night.
‘Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the house
Not a creature was stirring,
Not even a mouse."
Don't.
Evan: When I would play,
he would sit next
to me on the bench.
- Mark: Why?
- Made it easy to turn
the music.
Did he ever touch you when
he would sit next to you?
Yes.
He would keep his hand
on my back for good posture.
Evan...
did he ever touch
you anywhere else?
Yes.
During the trial I heard
from the prosecution,
I heard from the defense,
but I did not hear
from you, Mr. Holt.
Judge: You want to
say something now?
No, Your Honor.
I've read the
pre-sentencing report.
Nothing in it indicates
you feel any remorse.
Judge: Nothing indicates
that I should be lenient.
Mr. Holt...
note by note, you
eroded the hope
of every child in your charge.
You stole from them.
You stole from this community.
I sentence you to 115 years,
the maximum the law allows.
Maybe knowing that you
will never teach another child
will fill some of us
again with hope.
Will he really be
in jail that long?
He'll be eligible for
parole in 38 years.
- But he's almost 60.
- Yeah.
Isn't math wonderful?
Absolutely not.
We're trying to spare your son
the ordeal of testifying at trial.
Jonathan doesn't testify,
that son of a bitch goes free.
No, he won't be free. He's pleading
guilty, he will be on probation.
A heavily supervised probation.
- My son is the victim here.
- Sir, we know that.
And we are not
trying to excuse Evan,
but this does go back to Holt.
You saw how fast
that jury came back.
And I want that
other kid to go to trial.
I know you do.
And I sympathize
with you, believe me.
Isn't the most
important thing here
that these men never be allowed
to do anything like this again?
That's not justice. It's
special laws for special people.
No, sir, not at all. It's
almost a done deal.
Then you undo it,
because if you don't,
I'm going to call every
newspaper, every television station,
every person that'll listen for two minutes,
and tell them how certain child molesters
are worth your time and energy
and how certain other ones aren't.
What's that?
It's a letter from Julliard.
Did you open it?
Congratulations.
Man: Evan pleads
guilty, we don't go to trial.
Mark: Judge won't cut a deal.
How long would I be in jail?
The felony carries a one
to three year sentence.
I think a judge will feel politically
obligated to give you the maximum.
We go to trial, we probably
end up with probation,
right where we started.
- We withdraw
our guilty plea.
- Okay.
No, Jonathan can't
go through that.
But you'll be in
jail for three years.
Look...
I don't know what made
Holt the way he is...
but I do know why
I am the way I am.
And it stops here...
now.
sexually-based offenses
are considered
especially heinous.
In New York City, the
dedicated detectives
who investigate these
vicious felonies are members
of an elite squad known
as The Special Victims Unit.
These are their stories.
Clerk: Guy dropped these
off about 45 minutes ago.
Photomat down the street just
closed. Never seen this guy before.
What's his name?
Holt, Larry Holt...
had a coupon.
Rep came in... gave us
a talk about these things,
told me to call if I
saw something weird.
This is kid is posed. Look at the
way he's looking at the camera.
Yeah, that's it.
Open bottle of alcohol...
"Endangering the Welfare of a Child."
You don't think this is
enough to make an arrest?
No, "EWC" is all
we can arrest him on.
We're going to have a hard
time proving this is child porn.
But my gut feeling is,
this is the tip of the iceberg.
Guy gets one whiff of us and
he's going to clean out everything.
So let's follow him for a few
weeks, and don't waft his way.
What's going on here?
So much for not
"wafting his way."
- Are these your photos?
- Yes.
Stabler: Where there's one
photo, there's a hundred more.
You don't even have "EWC."
That kid is clearly under 18,
that bottle is clearly over 80 proof.
You don't know that. You
can't prove that's not apple juice.
You can't prove he drank from the
bottle. He could have found a stash.
- Which is "EWC."
- You jumped the gun.
We didn't have another choice.
Holt knew we were detectives.
- If there are other photos...
- And there are.
He would've gone straight
home and destroyed 'em.
There's nothing in these photos
that we can do anything about.
Captain, take a look at this.
- Middle of winter... kid is wearing hot pants.
- They're shorts.
- Shorts that ride up
too high on his legs.
- He had a growth spurt.
Someone had to tell that kid to drop
his chin and smile. That's not normal.
Unless you're in
a beauty pageant.
It's a boy. How many boys
you know go "Jon Benet"?
All right, keep going.
The pose, the look...
These are learned, these are
taught, and not by other kids.
The kind of guy who takes these
pictures, is going to keep these.
He's going to cherish
'em, collect 'em.
How's the kid in these
photos related to Holt?
Guy's a piano
teacher, he's a student.
Stabler: These are
sexualized photos.
Pedophiles keep evidence
of their sexual acts.
I know there are more
pictures in Holt's apartment.
I suppose you want a
warrant, based on your "ESP"?
Yeah, I do.
This is post-McMartin, people.
Any judge worth her salt will throw
out Holt's arrest at his arraignment.
Captain Cragen?
My client has informed me
that you took his watch,
his wallet, his house keys.
We voucher all personal
property at the time of arrest
to prevent theft
or accidental loss.
- I need those keys.
- Cragen: Why?
- To get in that house.
- Tell me why.
- Need to feed the dog.
- The dog will be fine.
- Where are my client's keys?
- Property clerk.
You did make a run
to the property clerk?
- In about two hours.
- There is something
in Holt's apartment.
I'll put a uniform on the door.
You get a probable
cause, you get a warrant.
- What about
the kid in these photos?
- It's a small neighborhood.
Let's go.
The building's sealed.
Who the hell are you to
tell me I can't go in there?
My lieutenant told
me to not let anyone in.
- You can't stop me.
- I can, and I am.
Excuse me, Is there
a problem here?
Yes. Hi. Hi.
This officer is preventing
me from entering my house.
- You live here?
- No, my father lives here.
Then I'm sorry, these
premises are secured.
Do you have a warrant?
It's before a judge, and until she
rules, we'll be locking this place down.
Thank you. You're welcome.
- Cop: They got a money tree
in this place, what?
- We don't know.
This whole place
belongs to Holt?
Nice place.
It's too nice. Where's a piano
teacher get that kind of money?
A rich white guy moves into this
neighborhood? Not by accident.
You think it's an accident that he lives
across the street from an elementary school?
Excuse me!
Whoa! How you doing?
Where you going?
I have a piano lessons.
So, Jonathan, is
Mr. Holt a good teacher?
Yeah, you know, good. Yeah?
Did he ever touch you
when you were playing?
Yeah, he keeps his hand
on my back. It's for posture.
Did that ever make
you feel uncomfortable?
My dad said it's okay.
Look, that teacher's like
that with all his students.
- You go to his lessons?
- I work late.
- So who are his students?
- Kids in the neighborhood.
- Boys and girls?
- Girls? Please.
Okay.
Jonathan, did Mr. Holt take pictures
of you while you were playing?
Yes, but he has a whole
lot of other pictures.
He calls them "snappies."
"Snappies"?
Did he ever show
you these "snappies"?
No, I found 'em.
Where?
I turn the page on
the music stand,
and a whole bunch
of snappies fell out.
Are they like the
snappies he took of you?
No, those boys in the snappies
didn't have any clothes on.
Well, there's your
probable cause.
We're not going to get
a nighttime exemption.
If we don't hit that door by 9:00,
we're not gonna get in until 6:00 a.m.
Holt's lawyer's
pushing for arraignment.
We lose that
uniform in two hours.
We don't get into that house
tonight, someone else will.
You two go file the warrant.
I'll page Judge
Rothman. She owes me.
We'll go in while
the ink is drying.
"Photos, negatives,
slides, cameras,
photographic equipment,
books, magazines, xeroxes,
and printed material at the
residence of Lawrence Holt,
30 East 112th Street."
Wait, let's add
videotape and film.
Adding "video cassettes,
videotape, and film." Anything else?
It's three till 9:00.
You got your warrant.
You got it? Great.
We got it. Open it up.
It's pretty quiet in here.
Munch: Maybe the dog died.
Jeffries: What is this place?
Munch: The lesson room.
Okay.
- Boy: Please don't.
- Holt: It's okay.
Boy: No, that hurts.
And 43 photos in the
album were obscene?
Yes, Your Honor.
Your Honor, may I?
Briefly.
I understand that the court is
under tremendous political pressure
to punish child abusers to
the fullest extent of the law.
Somehow, it never seems enough.
Based on the evidence found, the
defendant is hereby charged with:
endangering the
welfare of a child;
use of a child in a
sexual performance;
promoting an obscene
sexual performance by a child.
- How many tapes did you find?
- Last count was... 157.
Impressive, Mr. Holt.
44 counts of possessing obscene
sexual performance by a child.
Your Honor, the people
have clearly not had
the opportunity or the time to
inventory each videocassette.
Then we will all dread
the discovery process.
Bail is denied,
defendant is remanded.
- Are you ready to start?
- Come play it with me.
Okay, let's go.
Is this the tape you
found in the VCR?
Yeah.
Munch: This goes back 13 years.
Holt: Okay.
- Boy: Please don't.
- Holt: It's okay.
Boy: No, that hurts.
You scamp! I didn't know
you were going to do that.
Good for you!
What is this, Holt's
Greatest Hits"?
How many kids are there?
Please don't.
Holt: You have so much talent,
but you need to learn restraint.
Technique is discipline.
Youth: Not now, not again.
That's not a different kid.
It's the same person.
Grown up.
That was very good.
I felt your passion.
Thank you.
Did you see the tape?
We usually just
hear about it after.
To actually see it...
There's a lot
more to go through.
There could be 50,
maybe 100 more kids.
I'll do it.
You got Holt arraigned on
possession and promoting, all right?
We have to get back in there. We need
his computer, day planner, his schedule.
Wait a minute, what about abuse?
No, no, to do that, you need a
complainant. You need an actual kid.
We need that kid.
Okay, let's go.
Looks familiar, but I
don't know his name.
Does your son take piano
lessons from Mr. Holt?
No, not yet. My son, he
doesn't like music very much,
but I've been talking
to Larry about that.
Larry says it's never
too late to develop an ear.
Yeah, sure. Plays piano.
- Know who you
should ask about him?
- The piano teacher.
Yeah, Larry Holt...
Lives across the way.
He knows every kid
in this neighborhood.
- What do you know about him?
- Guy's a piano teacher.
Little fruity, but, you know.
Fruity?
Yeah, always touches everything,
everyone, but, you know.
- No, I don't know.
- None of my business.
Was there something going on?
Why you care?
You're only here after
something happens.
I'm here now.
Then that's your business.
Holt rent a lot of
children's videos?
I'll tell you right now, he's one
of the most decent guys I know.
He gave my kids
piano lessons for free.
Really? What did your
kids say about him?
That he was strict.
But they like him.
Anything going
on, they'd tell me.
You don't know Larry Holt.
He takes kids and sees
what they have in them,
that they can do anything.
- You see that kid?
- Mm-hmm.
His name is Rey
Guzimano, heard of him?
No. Man can he play.
Holt one of his teachers, too?
You know, Holt makes a
difference in people's lives.
A hell of a lot more
than you ever will.
- Jeffries: People knew.
- Maybe they're just trying
to be optimistic.
It's not the same
as covering up.
Yeah, they're busy. They're
trying to keep everything together.
Food on the
table, their families.
If they faced the truth, what kind
of parents does that make them?
- Did you talk to her?
- I don't think so.
Hold on.
- I bet I know
what you're thinking.
- Bet you don't.
Even the best parents
can't protect their children.
Gutter at home... part of
its broken, I need to fix it.
Well, you can't do everything.
You'd feel everything
for 'em, if you could...
All the pain.
You know, sometimes I just
look at kids and I think, "Why?
Why do it at all?"
Because you want to more
than anything in the world.
Because you want to
love them every day.
Where is that?
Hello?
Stabler: Excuse me. Hey!
How did you get in here?
I have a set of
keys. Who are you?
I'm Detective Benson, this is
my partner Detective Stabler.
- What's your name?
- Evan.
Evan, the way you play, it's...
- Beautiful.
- It's nice, yeah.
Thanks. Can I help you?
Stabler: Yeah, we're
looking for this person.
It's a three-year program.
- When's your audition?
- Three days.
- You nervous?
- Yeah, it's Julliard.
But if I get in, it'll be
all thanks to Mr. Holt.
- Yeah, what do you mean?
- Mr. Holt's a great teacher.
- Why?
- Because he pushes you.
Benson: How?
Makes you practice a lot, so that
way you can develop strong technique.
How else did he push you?
I don't know, I guess, just
makes you practice a lot.
- How long have you
been playing piano?
- Forever, I guess.
But Mr. Holt's been really good
to me. He taught me for free.
I need to ask you about
your piano teacher,
about what he did to you.
What do you mean... what he
did to me? He hasn't done anything.
Evan, I want you to know that everything
you're feeling is totally normal.
It's okay, but you got
to tell us what happened.
- Elton John.
- Huh?
My mother would play his "Greatest
Hits, Volume One," over and over.
His voice... when it
would get really high...
If I could sing like he
could, I would, but I can't,
so I learned how to play.
How old were you the
first time you had sex?
I haven't yet.
Mr. Holt didn't...?
Evan, Mr. Holt hurt you.
No, he didn't.
He's never touched you?
Never.
He pushed me...
He raised the bar,
and I met it each time.
- He doesn't know
he was videotaped.
- We should show him the tape.
If we take away this kid's denial, are
we going to stick around for the fallout?
- There are people...
- For as much pain as
this kid's been through,
there's an equal amount
just waiting for him.
Is it enough to try Holt for
possessing and promoting child porn?
- He's guilty of a lot more.
- And possession and promoting,
even with "EWC" tacked on,
is still only going to
bring seven years.
That's why a jury's
got to see the tape.
Seeing that tape, I'll tell ya, it's
going to wreck that child's life.
Elliot, he is not a
child, he's an adult.
Hello, Evan. May I have a seat?
Evan: Yeah.
What you're going to see, is
going to be very hard for you.
What happened on
this tape is wrong,
and the man who did it
deserves to be punished.
We can't do that, Evan, without the
help of the other person on this tape.
- Are you ready to start?
- Come play it with me.
Okay. Let's go.
Holt: That's good.
- What's this?
- Holt: Now watch your tempo.
Arch your fingers.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
Now remember your posture.
Keep your shoulders back.
No. No. Turn it off!
- No.
- Cragen: It's okay. It's all right, son.
No! Shh, shh. Evan.
No...!
No.
Holt moves into the neighborhood,
somehow manages to blend in.
He didn't blend
in, he stood out.
That's exactly what
these kids, Evan, need.
Somebody to love them.
Be a part of his world.
Rich. Educated.
White.
- What did he do?
- Benson: He didn't
do anything, ma'am.
Then why you
want to talk to him?
Have you ever heard
your son play piano?
Sure, you know. He's real good.
Yeah. So?
That's what we want
to talk to him about.
If you're from
that fancy school,
you better talk to him about
who's going to pay for this.
Stabler: How did
the audition go?
Can you tell us who these
other kids are in the photos?
Yeah. Oh, my mom.
- Yeah, families.
- Yeah.
- You know, not nice
like Larry's place, eh?
- Never been there.
Yeah, but the
cabinet doors close.
And there's a piano
at the middle school,
and it's missing a "D" flat.
- And it's always out of tune.
- Holt's got a nice piano.
I guess there's a price to
pay for everything, huh?
For him, too. That's why we need
you to tell us who these kids are.
Holt's my teacher,
and he cares about me a lot.
He even bought
me a coat one year.
I know it's hard, but it's okay.
No, it's not.
If you don't help us, Holt goes
right back to giving those lessons.
Holt always said I
wasn't ready to leave.
I mean, I'm no Rey
Guzimano. I still live here.
You know how old he was when
he came out with his first CD? 17.
- So what?
- You know how old I am?
- Almost 21.
- Some prodigy.
Julliard took in a 41-year-old
flute player last fall.
Guy was a monk.
It's not too late.
It's not?
That's Caesar.
Know where he is? Jail.
His gun accidentally went off
when a dry cleaner was
opening up his cash register.
That's Ricky. He's a junkie.
And that's Tony.
Know where he is?
Nobody does.
And me...
you know, I still live here.
But that's "okay."
- Holt didn't have a computer.
- No evidence anyone helped him?
No set schedule, no daytimer.
- The tapes have dates on them.
- Starting dates of the lessons.
And his current students
in the neighborhood?
- Nobody's talking.
- This case is being
fast-tracked.
And we've indicted Holt
separately for abuse against Evan.
How many counts? Just two.
What? We can only
go back five years.
Wait a minute, that
law changed in '96.
Child abuse can be
prosecuted up to five years
after the child's 18th birthday.
That's still a lot
more than two counts.
But there's no grandfather
clause for abuse before '96.
So everything that Holt did to Evan up
until the time he was 16, inadmissible.
- Anything over 17...?
- Is consensual.
- Please, huh?
- And that's only one year
of what happened to him.
- Right now, that's all we have.
- We may not even have that.
So our star witness
may not even testify?
He's afraid of betraying Holt.
He's worried that people
are going to hate him.
So we'll talk to the
kids that Evan knows.
Caesar, the lifer;
Ricky, the junkie.
Oh boy.
Nah, nothing ever happened.
He never touched you? No.
Why did you stop playing piano?
I didn't have the
technique, or discipline.
Man, it's cold.
Why don't you come
back to the station with me?
Get warm. We can talk there.
Holt's place was warm.
Door was always
open, never locked.
Never?
If it was, you come back.
Go inside. Get warm.
Eat a meal... sugar cookie.
I miss that part.
- You're his most
successful student.
- I owe him a lot.
And you owe it to the
community to testify.
- I don't owe
that community anything.
- You're still a part of it.
I just go there to see my mom.
Holt got away with
this for almost 20 years.
Holt was the only person that
ever told me I could do something.
- You know what that's like?
- Yeah. Yeah, I do.
You know there's only like
three ways to get out of there.
Either you're smart
enough to figure it out,
you get out on your
own, which isn't me,
or you die there.
Or you can do something, you
know, handle a ball, play the piano.
No one's going to
take that away from me.
- Why won't you talk to me?
- Because he's my father.
You still here?
Yeah.
Can you sleep?
I close my eyes,
I see those tapes.
Every frame. Go home, John.
Yeah, back to dead
people... Homicide.
It's much more
clear cut, simple.
Back to photographs.
Bodies bent, broken.
Bodies that don't
talk back to you.
- Look at you.
- You don't get attached.
Exactly.
Of course, you
retired in Baltimore,
a few months later,
found yourself here...
Another squad
room, another case.
This time I'll do a
better job of quitting.
Yeah, running's good.
I don't need this.
Go home, John.
Take care of yourself.
I got two more tapes to watch.
"With a wink of his eye,
and a twist of his head...
Soon gave me to know
I had nothing to dread...
He spoke not a word, but
went straight to his work,
and filled all the stockings..."
Are our stockings
going to be filled tonight?
I'm only going to tell
you one more time.
Christmas comes once
a year, it is now February.
- Give me the phone, honey.
- By why, Daddy, why?
Yeah, why can't Christmas
come all the time?
Because Santa's credit
cards are all maxed out.
That's why.
Stabler.
Hey, Evan, how you doing?
- Evan?
- Shh. What?
Okay. I'll tell you what,
you just stay there.
No, stay there and...
I'll be there as soon as I can.
Okay.
Evan: My mom threw me out.
She said she didn't want
some faggot living at her place.
- I didn't know
who else to call.
- That's okay.
I hate that everything's
always okay, you know?
I know some places that
give emergency housing.
They can help you
get on your feet.
How's the job?
The hot water cracks my skin.
Hurt my hands.
So you've quit the
dishwashing business?
No. I got fired.
I think I want to testify.
That's good. Real good.
You think I'm gay?
I don't know. It's
not for me to say.
Evan: I mean, I've never ever
had a girlfriend or anything.
Maybe you don't know yet,
it's not something you choose.
Besides, there's a
big difference between
homosexuality and pedophilia.
Which is what?
Which is... homosexuality
is none of my business.
What was done to you...
I was forced... that's
what you're trying to say?
Yeah...
only...
why didn't you stop
taking those lessons?
I thought...
I didn't think I had any choice.
Well, whatever
person you choose...
should be your choice.
And my guess is, when you're
ready to see someone that way...
you will.
It'll mean something to
you, and it'll come from you.
And it won't be about
what was done to you.
And it won't be my fault?
Fault? It's supposed
to be about love.
Elliot, you all right?
Yeah.
How's it going?
Going.
What's going on at work?
Nothing.
You talk to Olivia about it?
She's my partner.
How can we make
Evan feel comfortable?
- We just spent two hours
rehearsing his testimony.
- How'd that go?
You know the way
he answers questions,
almost as if he wanted
to say the right answer,
if there were a right
answer, just like a kid.
He is, emotionally, sexually.
This kid shut down
at eight years of age.
When I do have
kids on the stand,
I do like to do a
courtroom prep.
Cool.
Okay. Okay. That's
enough, "Wapner."
Last, and most important.
Where you will sit.
I don't get to come here at all?
'Cause you're a witness,
- you might get contaminated
by watching the whole trial.
- Contaminated?
Trust me, you got a lot better things
to do than hang out here all day.
Now, when you're up here,
I want you to answer the
questions, just like we practiced.
And when you answer, I
want you to speak loudly,
and look at me, and only at me.
What about when his
lawyer asks me questions?
You just answer the questions.
Everything else, ignore.
Just hear music.
Hey, John.
You think it's a
conscious choice?
What, Holt?
- What are you talking about?
- Yeah, Holt.
- What makes a perp a perp?
- Who cares?
Some people say the frontal lobe
is our body's armor
against impulses.
- Okay, Holt has a bad lobe.
- You think he was abused?
You know, John,
I really don't care.
It's just another excuse
as far as I'm concerned.
This guy hurt a lot of kids.
That's what I care about.
What's going on with you?
I got something to show you.
That's good. That's real good.
Keep your wrists up, okay?
Larry: No, no. Evan, he's
having trouble with the music.
He doesn't feel it.
He's ready to start learning.
He's ready.
Can you show him?
- Boy: What are you doing?
- Evan: Just keep playing.
- Hasn't this kid been
through enough already?
- How can you say that?
You, who when we watched those
tapes were ready to throttle the guy.
And you were the one
who was telling Evan
that everything was
going to be okay.
It is okay, if he's the
victim, not the abuser.
- He's both.
- Who's next?
Evan hurts another
kid, we are responsible.
Give it a few years, we'll
have another Holt on our hands.
The same laws that
bind Holt, bind Evan too.
Mark, it's Don Cragen.
I think you better
get down right away.
Larry said that Jonathan
didn't feel the music.
He said, "How can you
play a piece about longing,
when you haven't felt that?
Jonathan was playing
"The Entertainer."
It's the way I
learned how to play.
What are you going to
do with your talent now?
Look at me.
How many times did this happen?
Once. That's it.
Don't lie to me.
That was the only time.
- You committed a crime.
- And deserve to be punished.
You still want to
testify tomorrow?
You're going to be
arraigned this afternoon.
Am I going to jail?
We probably could make a deal.
What...?
You don't think it's fair
we give this kid a deal?
Fair?
I don't know what I
know anymore, you know?
Yeah, I mean we're stuck
right in the middle of this thing.
We watch that boy on
tape, a victim being subjected
to thing that no child
should ever have to suffer.
Who are you talking
about, Jonathan or Evan?
All right, point taken. But
I was talking about Evan.
He was abused, and then
he turns around and does it.
An excuse.
You think that's
all it is, an excuse?
I think, it relieves him
of an awful lot
of responsibility.
The idea that abuse
begets abuse, begets abuse,
is a rationalization
that's been used
by countless defense lawyers.
But in this case, it
also happens to be true.
He had a choice.
Yes. Evan, the
adult, had a choice.
- And he committed a crime.
- And we're cops.
And we'll deal with that.
But you see, what's eating you,
is Evan the little boy.
The boy on the tape.
What choice did he have?
Judge: Bail is set at 25,000.
- Your Honor...
- I think that's more
than fair.
It is fair, and we appreciate
the court's generosity.
But, may we approach the bench?
Your Honor, my
client can't make that.
So he spends the night
in jail like anyone else.
Your Honor, the People are right
now in the middle of trying Larry Holt,
Evan is our key witness.
- When is he testifying?
- Tomorrow.
Stress of spending the night in
jail will probably affect his testimony.
All right, then. Until his
testimony is completed,
I'll release Evan into
the custody of the People.
You hate me, don't you?
I don't hate you.
- Well, what you said
in the diner that night...
- Yeah, that was before.
Look, what happened
to you is terrible.
I look at you and I try seeing
that little child being abused.
Only...
Only now you see an abuser.
Yeah. Yeah, I do.
I see a guy that... if you
ever came near my child...
My kid must have
put that in there.
He's determined to make
Christmas come every night.
‘Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the house
Not a creature was stirring,
Not even a mouse."
Don't.
Evan: When I would play,
he would sit next
to me on the bench.
- Mark: Why?
- Made it easy to turn
the music.
Did he ever touch you when
he would sit next to you?
Yes.
He would keep his hand
on my back for good posture.
Evan...
did he ever touch
you anywhere else?
Yes.
During the trial I heard
from the prosecution,
I heard from the defense,
but I did not hear
from you, Mr. Holt.
Judge: You want to
say something now?
No, Your Honor.
I've read the
pre-sentencing report.
Nothing in it indicates
you feel any remorse.
Judge: Nothing indicates
that I should be lenient.
Mr. Holt...
note by note, you
eroded the hope
of every child in your charge.
You stole from them.
You stole from this community.
I sentence you to 115 years,
the maximum the law allows.
Maybe knowing that you
will never teach another child
will fill some of us
again with hope.
Will he really be
in jail that long?
He'll be eligible for
parole in 38 years.
- But he's almost 60.
- Yeah.
Isn't math wonderful?
Absolutely not.
We're trying to spare your son
the ordeal of testifying at trial.
Jonathan doesn't testify,
that son of a bitch goes free.
No, he won't be free. He's pleading
guilty, he will be on probation.
A heavily supervised probation.
- My son is the victim here.
- Sir, we know that.
And we are not
trying to excuse Evan,
but this does go back to Holt.
You saw how fast
that jury came back.
And I want that
other kid to go to trial.
I know you do.
And I sympathize
with you, believe me.
Isn't the most
important thing here
that these men never be allowed
to do anything like this again?
That's not justice. It's
special laws for special people.
No, sir, not at all. It's
almost a done deal.
Then you undo it,
because if you don't,
I'm going to call every
newspaper, every television station,
every person that'll listen for two minutes,
and tell them how certain child molesters
are worth your time and energy
and how certain other ones aren't.
What's that?
It's a letter from Julliard.
Did you open it?
Congratulations.
Man: Evan pleads
guilty, we don't go to trial.
Mark: Judge won't cut a deal.
How long would I be in jail?
The felony carries a one
to three year sentence.
I think a judge will feel politically
obligated to give you the maximum.
We go to trial, we probably
end up with probation,
right where we started.
- We withdraw
our guilty plea.
- Okay.
No, Jonathan can't
go through that.
But you'll be in
jail for three years.
Look...
I don't know what made
Holt the way he is...
but I do know why
I am the way I am.
And it stops here...
now.
