Bria expands the boundaries of the GFE to fulfill her needs.

[ moaning ]

IAN:
You're here
because the trial's happening

and you are a key witness.

You are lucky to be here!

You fucking respect it!

I will support my daughter.

BRIA:
"I will support my daughter."

Fuck you.

I will try to be better.

PAUL:
I know you said
you only wanted 500

but I thought I'd throw
a little more, 700.



Thank you.

IAN:
Are you hiding something
from me?

[ machine beeps ]

- No.
- Machine doesn't lie, Bria.

I know you're
hiding something.

You can touch me.

IAN:
You are not innocent,
not by a fucking long shot.

I know who you are.
I know what you do.

I know
how the fuck you operate.

I want you
out of my fucking house.

IAN:
I need your help.



BRIA:
"I need your help."

I need your help.

IAN:
Repeat it.

[ machine beeps ]

Do you wanna talk
about last night?

IAN:
No, not right now.

I'm sorry.

I really, I'm sorry, I-I...

I need to be better.

I can be better, I know I can.

I-I cleaned the kitchen

um, and I...

...was thinking maybe tomorrow
I could borrow your car

and pick up Kayla from school
after I finish at the factory?

Okay.

- Thank you.
- Let's just focus.

[ sighs ]

IAN:
I need your help.

"I need your help."

[ indistinct chatter ]

- Have a nice day, Sandra.
- Yeah, you too.

[ muffled screaming ]

PAUL:
Let it out!

Let it out!

Let it out!

You got it, man. You got it.

Let it out!
That's it, my man!

Whoo!

We're all gonna be fine.

You just got to let it out.

You don't have to name it.

It doesn't need a name.

I'm not gonna judge you.

I'm not gonna judge you.

I'm not gonna judge you.

I'm not gonna judge you

and I'm not gonna judge you.

I just want you to let it out.

[ all screaming ]

PAUL:
That's it.

That's it!

[ all screaming ]

[ screaming ]

Shh.

- I can't do this.
- It's okay.

- I can't-I can't do this alone.
- Let it out. Let it out.

I can't do this alone.

- Shh.
- I need help.

- I need help, please.
- Tell me what...

[ screaming ]

I need help!

Admitting is half the battle.

BRIA:
I need help.

I'm here to help you.

I'm here.

Shh.

[ screaming ]

[ muffled screaming ]

[ indistinct chatter ]

[ footsteps approaching ]

Whoa! Did you like?

Intense.

PAUL:
Are you, um,
too exhausted to...

To fuck? No.

I've been thinking about it,
and I really don't want you to

if you don't want to,
or if you're not ready.

No, I do want to.

I was just waiting
until you wanted to.

Let me ask you something.

You think it's weird
of me to w-wait?

Is it odd?

No.

We're getting
to know each other.

[ Paul sighs ]

PAUL:
I can't wait to meet Kayla.

Yeah, I'm excited too.

I wish you'd let me come over
to your apartment tonight

and cook you guys dinner.

I'm so good with food.

I'm kind of a great chef.

Yeah, maybe next time.

More than just steaks,
I can cook almost anything.

Eggs Benedict.

Anyway, I just wanna
spoil you two.

Let me ask you.
Should I buy her a present?

She like presents? Gifts?

Roller blades, snowboards...

I was into all that stuff
when I was her age.

Uh, if you'd like to.

I think she might like it.

[ singing bowl gongs ]

*

BRIA:
Kayla!

[ indistinct chatter ]

Come on!

Where's Ian?

I thought I'd pick you up today.

KAYLA:
Since when do you fucking care?

Don't say fuck.

You're too pretty
to talk like that.

- Did you have a good day?
- No, I didn't.

We're off for a picnic,
with a friend of mine.

- You made a friend?
- Yeah.

You'll like him.

Him?

*

Why are you looking at me
like that?

You're just beautiful.

That's all.

You're freaking me out.

Does Ian even know we're here?

- Mm-hmm.
- Stop it.

- Your hair looks a mess.
- I don't care. I don't care!

When was the last time
you had a bath, Kayla?

You know, the bath
is fucking disgusting.

No one ever washes it.

Let me fix your hair
just a little bit.

No, thank you. Don't! Stop!

BRIA:
You look like
a homeless person.

KAYLA:
Your hair is a mess. Piss off.

BRIA:
Be nice.

[ car door opens ]

[ car door closes ]

PAUL:
Hey!

I got you something.

- Hi.
- I bought you something.

PAUL:
It's beautiful up here!

Hello.

She's in a bit of a bad mood,
so, yeah.

Just ignore everything
she says that might be weird.

- It's fine.
- Mm-hmm.

No, no, no. No kissing
in front of the kids.

I smell some food.

You must be Kayla. I'm Paul.

Your mom has told me
so much about you.

- Adopted mom.
- Being adopted is cool.

When I was a kid, it was trendy.

All the cool kids were adopted.

Speaking of which,
I got you something

that's maybe a little trendy.

I'm trying to buy
my way into your heart.

Say thank you, Kayla.

- And the same thing for you.
- Thank you, Paul.

- Thank you.
- Yeah, of course.

Hope you like it.

[ chuckles ]

I-I'm not supposed to have this.

Oh, y-y-you can have it.
It's fine.

[ chuckling ]

- That's the real deal.
- It's beautiful.

Oh, oh, my back. Oh.

Pilates. I did a four hour
session yesterday.

No, I'm just kidding.

You hungry?

Hungry? I'm starving.

You are so sweet.

[ Paul clears throat ]

So what do you do
for a living, Paul?

- That's rude.
- Asking questions--

- No, it's not rude. It's cool.
- Yeah.

She wants to know.
She's a kid. I don't blame her.

And how much money do you make?

- I'm very...
- Kayla!

I'm very, very wealthy.
I'm a rich guy.

I'm, uh, one of those guys
you look at when they drive by

in the tinted windows,
and you're like, "Who's inside?"

That's me. That's Paul.

Trust me, hang out with me
for a little bit

we'll be maximizing together,
sweetie.

*

Hey, Sandra.

Hey, I'll have that.

- No.
- Yes.

- You're not meant to have it.
- No.

- You're not meant to have Paul.
- So give it...

Give it to me, Kayla.
If Ian knew--

If Ian knew that you had Paul,
you'd be in big trouble.

- Give it to me right now.
- Fucking--

Okay, hide it.

Just hide it.
Keep it, but hide it.

You should probably hide
your bracelet too.

[ knock on door ]

[ knocking continues ]

- Hi.
- Where were you?

I took Kayla
for an early dinner.

I've been calling you,
you didn't pick up.

You got dressed up
to take Kayla to a picnic?

I wanted to dress up
for a change, look nice.

[ scoffs ]

All right, the prosecution
would like to schedule

a pre-trial examination
and obtain a sworn statement.

It will happen
in a safe, remote location

which means
no one will know where you are

unless you decide to tell them.

I wouldn't tell anyone.

You'd like to do a session?

[ thunder rumbling ]

[ music on stereo ]

- Five hundred?
- That's my offer.

You know I could get
3,000 at Tiffany's.

This ain't Tiffany's, ma'am.

You can buy it back
in a month with 10% interest.

BRIA:
Fine.

WOMAN 1:
I'll get your papers.

Where's the bracelet
I bought you?

I pawned it.

Why would you do that?

Because I need a car, Paul.

I need the money.

- Hey, can I have a sip?
- Sure.

Can we fuck?

Why won't you let me
come over to your house?

Well, I just wanna be
close to you.

I don't feel
like we're connecting.

It's hard for me to be intimate
when I don't feel like

you're welcoming me
in your life.

- Hmm.
- Feels confusing to me.

- Like we're not connecting.
- Yeah, I understand.

*

- Hi.
- Hi.

- Here's your deposit.
- Thank you.

That's 200.

I'll give you the,
uh, the rest after?

Yeah. Lay back.

[ clears throat ]

[ car honks ]

Ooh.

[ moaning ]

Yeah.

[ both moaning ]

[ panting ]

PAUL:
I'm excited.

I feel pretty good about this,
I did some shopping today.

I think you're gonna like it.

Anyway, this is for you.

And this, my dear, my darling,
is for you.

That's the real
deal eye shadow.

Super serious,
extreme eye shadow.

And that's my favorite scent.

Love it.

You like?

- I'm not gonna wear this.
- No?

No. I don't wear eye shadow.

Say thank you to Uncle Paul.

- Thank you, Uncle Paul.
- That's not necessary.

You probably will like it
when you're a little older.

- It's cool. And you?
- I love it. Really.

PAUL:
Do me a favor though this time.

- What's that?
- Please don't pawn it.

- Okay.
- And check this out.

While I was out shopping,
I got these little mittens.

[ grunts ]

Rubber on the back side,
cotton on the front.

It's impossible
to burn your hands.

Anyway...

PAUL:
I'm happy to cook
for you tonight.

I think you guys
are gonna like it.

Cooking's one
of my favorite things.

Although, I will say that

you have some
pretty dull...cutlery

and my mom used to say that

only dull people
use dull knives.

I'm really tired.

KAYLA:
Can I go to bed?

It's not even dark.

PAUL:
Yeah, you're gonna wanna
try this.

Yeah, why don't you just stay
up for a little bit longer

and try some of Uncle Paul's
food and then--

I'm really, really full,
and I'm really tired.

PAUL:
All right.

No biggie, I think your taste
buds might be too immature

for what I'm about to cook
tonight.

See you later, Paul.

Just gonna go tuck her in.

You have to be nice to him.
He is helping us.

What am I getting out of this?

I mean, what's keeping me
from telling him

who you really fucking are?

- Shh-shh. Keep your voice down.
- Fuck.

[ whispering ]
Fuck you.

You're not gonna tell anyone,
because if you do

you know that we'll be
moved out of this shithole

and you'll end up
in a foster home with somebody

a lot worse than me and that
scares the shit out of you.

Did my dad really do all
the things they're saying?

Of course, he fucking did.
And he wasn't your dad.

And he's the reason
you don't have a mother.

Why?

BRIA:
How are you hearing
any of this?

Who's telling you?

He did.

We'll talk about it later.

*

All right, Kayla,
this is Agent Nina.

She's gonna take care of you.

NINA:
Come with me, honey.

[ knock on door ]

This is a transcript
of a statement

you gave on November 25, 2018.

So take your time,
look over the statement.

Let me know
if you find any discrepancies

from what you
previously said.

No.

Are you okay to continue?

How long were you
in a relationship

with Donald Fairchild?

Five years.

Right, we moved in
really quickly.

I moved in with him
after about a month.

It was very...

...intense at the beginning,
very fast, and...

MAN 1:
And how much did you know
about his business?

I didn't know
anything about him.

I knew...
And I didn't know anything.

I knew he was a businessman.

I knew he had shipping

export, import-export

that sort of thing

and I knew that he had
an escort company

and that was it.

Nothing else.

I mean, I...

To the extent

of what was going on

I wasn't aware.

MAN 1:
Why didn't you come forward
sooner?

When I first...

...got involved...

...it was very real
and it felt...

I was very much in love and...

...I just got deeper and deeper

and he got me to do things
that I...

He's just like that.
He just gets...

He-he just got further
and further on

and I started having
to do things I didn't feel like

I had any choice in.

MAN 1:
Can you please explain that?

Did he threaten you?

BRIA:
Yeah.

MAN 1:
Can you clarify the nature
of his threats?

Where... Did he verbally
or physically threaten you?

BRIA:
I mean, both, but...

I mean, yeah, both.

MAN 1:
Um, was it clear that
your life would be in danger

if you did not assist him?

BRIA:
Yeah.

MAN 2:
Should get more volume
for the audio though.

MAN 1:
We have to repeat that,
uh, louder for the camera.

I'll state the question again.

Was it clear that your life
would be in danger

if you did not assist him?

BRIA:
Yes. It was clear.

MAN 1:
Thank you.

When you were confronted

by federal investigators

on November 25th, 2018

for assisting Donald Fairchild

in trafficking
unregistered arms

and unlicensed amounts
of pseudoephedrine

a known chemical component
for producing methamphetamines

were you aware of
Donald Fairchild's intentions

for distributing
and selling this contraband

in foreign territories?

BRIA:
Yes.

But not to the extent...

...that it was happening.

[ moans ]

MAN 1:
Please describe how you met
Donald Fairchild.

BRIA:
He ran an escort company
called Premium Companions.

And I was working at the
company for about a month.

MAN 1:
As an escort?

BRIA:
Yeah, as an escort.

[ moaning ]

[ panting ]
