Walker, Texas Ranger (1993–2001): Season 5, Episode 8 - A Silent Cry - full transcript

Okay, blow out the candles.

I did it. Of course you did.

It's easy when
you're 21 years old.

Wait'll you have 41 years
worth of wax on that cake.

Oh, Mama.

Did you make a wish?

Sure did.

But I doubt if Brad
Pitt's interested.

Well, if he saw
you, he would be.

Happy birthday, Darcy.

Oh!

Oh, Walker.

Oh, it's beautiful.

Oh, look, Mama, it
has "21" engraved on it.

Oh. There we go.

Thank you, Walker.
You're welcome.

Oh, there's Marlene and Suzanne.

Where you gonna
go celebrate, honey?

Oh, we're going
to the Red Jacket

now that I'm finally
old enough to get in.

Now, you be careful.
Oh, I will, Mama.

Thanks, Walker.

You're welcome,
honey. Bye-bye, honey.

Well, how about a little
piece of cake, Walker?

You bet.

You raised a fine
daughter, Cora.

Yeah.

You know, I wish Jack
had lived to see her.

Yeah, me too. He was a good cop.

And you're a good friend.

I don't know what I would've
done without your help.

Have you ever thought
about getting married again?

Well, of course I've
thought about it, Walker.

I've just never met
another man like Jack.

And speaking of
marriage, Walker,

what's going on
between you and Alex?

I plead the Fifth.

Why, Mama?

Why?

I just wanna die.

Don't you say that.

I wanna die.

Don't you say that, Darcy.

I feel so dirty.

I feel so used and dirty.

It wasn't your fault.

It wasn't your fault, Darcy.

I don't remember anything, Mama.

It's okay.

I don't. It's okay.

I don't remember. It's okay.

Now, you just close your eyes.

You close your eyes.

You should rest.

You rest.

You're safe now.

It was not your fault, Darcy.

It was not your fault.

Everything's gonna be all right.

How could this happen
to my daughter, Walker?

I don't know, Cora,
but I'm gonna find out.

Oh, my God, Walker, I
just heard about Darcy.

How is she?

Not good.

Well, have you
found out anything?

The doctor said
that she was raped

by several assailants.

The DNA testing on
the semen samples

they recovered will verify it.

This all fits the crime profile
on our Blackout Rapist.

Yeah, all young women,
picked out at local nightclubs.

Well, can't she
identify any of them?

She can't remember anything.

She tested positive
for Rohypnol,

like the others.

That's why they call
it the date-rape drug.

All the victims blackout.

Yeah.

Let's go, Trivette.

Where you going?

To the club Red Jacket.

Jake Prentice,
I'm Ranger Walker.

This is my partner, Trivette.

Do you remember this girl?

No, never seen her.

Good-looking piece, though.

Take another look.

You know, that is a clear case

of police brutality, man.

Listen, you, this girl
was here last night.

She was drugged and raped.

Now, start thinking.

She was raped?

Uh, I can see why you'd
be disturbed, Ranger.

I'm sorry.

You haven't seen me disturbed.

Yet.

Look.

It's like I told you.

I don't remember
seeing the girl.

You check IDs at the door?

Of course, sir.

And if she came
in here last night,

I checked her ID,

but that doesn't
mean I remember her.

What about three guys?

A trio, always together,
looking for girls.

Sorry.

But hey, I'll keep it in mind.

Well, keep this in mind.

If I find out you're
lying, I'll be back,

and you'll find out what
"brutality" really means.

♪ Could it be That
you are mine? ♪

♪ Could it be To
the end of time? ♪

♪ Could it be That
you are mine? ♪

♪ Could it be Till
the end of time? ♪

Tonight I can
feel it in my bones.

We're gonna score big.

Hope we get as
lucky as last night.

She was so hot.

Really? How do you know?

She was passed
out the whole time.

Come on, Wade. I
wanna talk to you.

What's up?

You.

All three of you,
being damned idiots.

That's what this is all about.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about
Texas Rangers, man.

A pair.

Came in asking questions.

I don't want them on my butt,

and I don't want your
action leading back to me.

You got that?

Jake, relax, man.

They don't know nothing.

Hey, man, that chick
was too lit on roofies

to remember a
thing that happened.

In case these Texas
Rangers find out different,

why don't you try out
Galden's or Club Amadea

for a while, huh?

Get the hell out of here.

Come on, let's go, Wade.

All right, Jake.

I don't wanna
mess up your action,

but, uh, what do
you say you let me

score some of those roofies?

For construction workers,

you boys sure are
three bricks shy of a load.

Got Texas Rangers
looking for you,

and all you can think
about is scoring again.

Hey, man, maybe he's right.

Relax, Joey.

It's gonna be great.

♪ Could it be That
you are mine? ♪

♪ Could it be Till
the end of time? ♪

Just come to tonight's
meeting and see how it feels.

Darcy, that's all I'm asking.

I'd rather just forget
about this, okay?

Look, you've been
really nice, but I...

I just wanna... I
just wanna go home.

Darcy, I can't begin to
know how you must feel...

No, you can't begin.

But I do know that
you're not alone,

and this counseling
group is wonderful.

It might help you cope with
what you've been through.

Please, honey.

Do it for me.

Okay, I'll... I'll go.

I'll try it.

Thank you, honey.

Well, let's go then.

What's another myth about rape?

"Rape only happens
to young women."

Well, look around you.

You'll see that
that is not true.

But you know what is true?

You know what you
all have in common?

You are all survivors.

Another myth about rape

is that it is primarily
a sexual crime.

It is not.

Rape is a violent
assault acted out sexually,

and as women, the
rapist violates our integrity,

our sense of safety,

our sense of control
over our environment.

But as survivors,

it is our job to take
that control back.

Would any of our new
members like to speak?

All right, Yolanda.

My name is Yolanda Salinas,

and I'm a survivor.

I suppose my first
reaction was numbness.

I was in shock.

Everybody around
me was crying, but I...

I just couldn't cry.

I felt so dirty.

I just wanted to wash
myself all day long.

I felt hopeless and scared.

I didn't know how
I'd ever go on.

Do it!

No!

Darcy, please, don't leave.

Darcy?

All this talking isn't helping.

It's just making things worse.

It's too soon, Alex.

Mama, please, I
just wanna go home.

No, I am not going back.

Darcy.

I know how horrible you feel.

How could you possibly
know how horrible I feel?

Do you know how
humiliating that exam was?

Can you imagine what
I dream of at night?

What I have inside my head?

I know healing
takes time, Darcy.

I'm your Mama.

I will always be there for you.

But you're gonna
have to trust me.

No, I don't wanna talk about it.

I know what you're trying to do,

but, God, why did
this have to happen?

Just trust your Mama.

No! Just...

So this latest attack
could have been the work

of the three men known
as the Blackout Rapist?

Hurry.

There is evidence to
support that conclusion.

Similarities with
other assaults.

For instance, we have confirmed

that the victim
ingested Rohypnol

before being attacked.

Miss Cahill, what
advice would you have

for the women in
Dallas who are at risk

from these Blackout Rapist?

Watch your drink when
going to a club or a party.

Be alert, be aware.

There's no reason for panic,

but there is reason for concern.

I'm sorry, I'm
late for a meeting.

Just one... One little thing.

Please.

Excuse us, please.

The media is all over this one.

If they don't stop,
there's gonna be a panic.

Any leads?

There's a manager
named Jake Prentice

at the Red Jacket
might be involved.

Any evidence?

Just a gut feeling.

You got the file? Yes.

These are all the
connected rape cases

that you asked for.

The women involved
have already been

questioned by Dallas P.D.

I hope you guys
have better luck.

Thanks, Alex.

Darcy, I know this is
going to be very difficult,

but I need to ask
you some questions.

Okay.

Did anyone approach you
that night at the Red Jacket?

Um, yeah, this one guy.

He came up to me
and asked me to dance.

Do you know what he looks like?

Yeah, he... He was cute.

He, uh, had a tan and dark hair.

He was good-looking.

If I sketched something for you,

you might be able to
give us a better idea?

I'll try.

Really chiseled features

and sort of high cheekbones.

Fuller lips.

No, a shorter nose.

A really nice smile.

Yeah, that's him.

That's the guy who
asked me to dance.

But there's nothing
wrong with me.

Can't you see
I'm perfectly fine?

Darcy, it's really important
that you get some counseling,

and that you get some support.

You know, I just turned 21.

I'm an adult now.

Why is everyone still
telling me what I need?

Honey, it's just that
people care for you.

Well, Mama, I just don't
wanna discuss my feelings

with other people right now.

Those feelings and
emotions aren't gonna go away

by burying them deeper

and not talking about them.

Alex, I... I just want my
life to be back to normal.

I want things to be back
to the way they were.

Is that so wrong?

No.

But, Darcy, these other women

have already been
down this path.

I mean, what would it
hurt just to listen to them?

I did listen.

I heard what they had to say,

and it didn't do
any good for me.

That's why I'm not going back.

Hi, Alex, Cora.

Hi. Hi, Walker.

Darcy...

Three other women
identified the same man.

He approached them
just like he did you.

He also drugged and raped them.

Now, did you notice
anyone else with him?

No, it was really
crowded that night, I...

No, I... I just danced with him.

And then I came
back to the table

and I had a drink.

I mean, I didn't
drink that much.

But I started feeling
really lightheaded.

That's the Rohypnol.

Yeah.

Do you remember anything else?

I remember I got up
to go to the bathroom.

I think he came up to me.

He asked me how I was.

But I can't remember
anything after that.

Okay, okay.

Darcy, I'm gonna
catch these guys.

That's how I can help you.

But you've gotta help yourself.

You've got to go to counseling.

Because catching these guys

isn't gonna relieve your pain.

You understand?

It's that Ranger.
Tell him I'm not here.

Prentice.

He's not here.

I'll see for myself.

I said he's not here.

Oh, God.

Broke my nose.

Where is he?

Prentice, get out here,
or I'll kick the door in.

Get out here. All right.

Who is this guy?

I don't know. I...
I never saw him.

He was here the
night the girl got raped.

He danced with her,
and he was with two guys.

I swear to God, I don't...
Don't remember him.

I know you're lying, Prentice.

And as soon as I can prove it,
you're gonna need God's help.

Whoa, sweetheart. Come on.

A little outside
air is all you need.

What's happening?

You are, blondie.

Let's go.

Go. Hit it.

Watch yourself.

What happened?

The cause of
death's not clear yet.

She's got bruises on
her neck, possible OD.

Let's have them run
a test for Rohypnol.

Already covered.

Found this on her body.

Galden's Club. She
was there last night.

I think it's our rapist again.

Well, now it's murder.

Get to work, man.

The dead woman was identified

as 25-year-old Kelly
Groves of Fort Worth.

Sources close to
the investigation

say police believe

the Blackout Rapist
may be responsible.

This man is alleged to
be one of the three rapists

wanted in the series
of brutal crimes.

Please call the
number on the screen

if you have any information
regarding this matter.

Great. In other news...

Great, man, that's...
That's me, man.

That's my face up there.
They know who I am.

Must've been that Darcy chick,

the one them Rangers was
asking about at the Red Jacket.

Relax, Joey.

That doesn't even look like you.

Wade's right, man.
You're much uglier.

That ain't funny, Luke.

That's my face
up there, not yours.

I know a lot of guys
who look like that, Joey.

It doesn't connect
you to anything.

Damn, Wade.

Why'd you have to
put so many roofies

in that chick's drink?

You shut up!

You're just as guilty as I am.

We're in this together.

We killed that girl, all right?

Now, what are we
gonna do about it?

I'll tell you what we're
gonna do about it.

We're gonna go back to work
and we're gonna forget about it.

We didn't do nothing.

We don't know nothing.

Neither do the cops.

That's right.

Relax, Joey.

The whole thing'll
blow over by tomorrow.

It's okay, it's okay.

There's not a person here

that doesn't feel the same way.

Thank you, Meredith.

Would anybody else like to

share their feelings
with the group?

What about our
other new members?

Does anyone wanna speak?

Darcy?

My name's Cora
Reynolds, and I'm a survivor.

When I was 15 years old, I
was raped by a family friend.

My parents went
away for the weekend.

He came by to check on
me, see how I was doing.

I told him I was doing fine.

He grabbed me to
kiss me goodbye.

Then he started fondling me,

and I didn't understand
what he was doing.

And I told him to
stop it, and he said no.

He said he knew I wanted it.

The harder I fought,
the stronger he got.

Then he threw me on the floor.

And he raped me.

And when he was finished...

When he was finished,

he said if I told anybody,
he would deny it,

and they would
believe him, not me.

I felt ashamed.

I felt like something
deep inside of me

had shattered,
something fragile.

And I would never, ever be
able to put it back together

quite the same way it was.

I wanted to run
and tell my mother...

but his words kept
coming back to me.

It was my fault.

I had come on to him.

They would never believe me.

My parents would believe him.

Honey...

I remember it like
it was yesterday.

I can tell you what
he looked like,

and I can tell you
what he smelled like.

And the shame I felt,

that I've been carrying
around all of these years.

And I just know

that if I had had
a group like this,

ladies like yourselves,

where I could've gone

and I could've
talked to you and...

Well, I knew I
wouldn't have suffered

half as much as I did.

And I don't want my
daughter to suffer.

I don't want my daughter
to suffer what I suffered.

All right, thank you.

We appreciate the tip.

Yeah, thanks.

The lab report confirms it.

The dead girl OD'd on Rohypnol.

Just as we suspected.

What's happening
with the composite?

Well, over 20 calls so far.

The only trouble is we've
gotten over 20 different names.

Ranger Walker.

Yes, sir?

Okay, thank you very much.

Is Joey Hastings on that list?

Yeah, he's down here twice.

Works for McFlander's
Construction.

And now we got three.

That sounds like corroboration.

Let's go talk to him.

Joey Hastings?

Right there.

Joey Hastings?

Yeah? I'm Ranger Walker.

This is Ranger Trivette.

Where were you Friday night?

Why?

This is why.

Oh.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I know.

Great. I saw that.

That, uh... That would
have to look like me.

Look, Ranger, I ain't ever
raped or killed nobody.

Ever been to the Red
Jacket or Galden's?

Sure, sure. Lots of times.

That... That don't make
me guilty though, does it?

Hi, I'm Wade Atkins.
I'm the foreman.

What's going on?

We're questioning
one of your men.

Oh, not on my time.

I got a building to put up.

Hastings, get back to work.

Not yet.

We haven't finished
talking to him.

I said, Hastings,
get back to work.

And I said not yet.

You looking for trouble, Ranger?

No, I'm not looking for trouble,

but I can sure deal with it.

Hey, are you threatening me?

Hey, did you hear that, Hammer?

He's threatening me.

I heard it, boss.

Take off that badge
and see what happens.

Aah!

You wouldn't wanna
see what would happen.

Now, drop the hammer, Hammer.

I don't have enough
evidence to arrest you yet,

but I will.

That was great, man.
I never get to do that.

Well, bring your knee
up higher next time.

Okay? Okay.

They got us.

They know it was us.

They know it was you.

You're the one she remembers.

Oh, yeah?

Well, she remembers me now,

but she's gonna
remember you guys later.

No, she won't. What
are you saying, Joey?

Hey, everything else
they got is circumstantial.

We kill the girl, they
got no case at all.

Remind me.

All right.

If we go busting in
there right now, sir,

it'll never hold up in court.

Thanks.

You're so welcome.

Isn't that Ozzie Franks?

Yeah. We busted him last year.

Narcotics trafficking, right?

Yeah. Run a make on him.

All right. Mexico comes through.

So how much for 200 roofies?

Franks, why
don't you just chill?

I'll get to you.

Four for two, what
do you say, Jake?

I said shut up.

You'll get your turn.

Sit down.

That boy is jonesing.

Where's my check, guys?
Suspect on the move.

Thank you.

Parole violation.
Warrants outstanding.

Let's get him.

You hurt?

No, I'm fine.

Good. Assume the position.

What's this all about?

Rohypnol.

Did Prentice sell this to you?

Yes, sir, Ranger.

He sure as hell did.

Come on.

Texas Rangers.
You're under arrest.

All right, everybody up.

Move!

Come on, man. Get up.

I told you not to
resist, you dummy.

We caught you dealing Rohypnol.

You're in for a long stretch.

Boy, they're gonna
love you at Huntsville.

What do you want?

A name to go with
this composite,

and the two guys with him.

What's in it for me?

We'll treat this as
straight dealing.

Otherwise what?

Otherwise, you get
to be an accessory

to rape and murder.

And I'll personally
make it stick.

Ranger Walker,
you got a phone call.

Ranger Walker.

This is Joey Hastings,
Ranger Walker.

What do you want, Hastings?

Look.

Look, I... I know I did
some bad things, okay?

I-I know that.

But I... But I just
can't do this to this girl.

I just can't do it.

Where are you?

I-I'm... I'm... I'm at the job.

Okay, stay there. I'm on my way.

He said he couldn't
do something to her.

To... To her?

Her...

Darcy.

Line's dead.

Sure would like a crack
at you with your eyes open.

Mama ain't half bad, either.

But unfortunately...
you're all tied up!

Go.

Cora. Cora.

Don't worry. I'll get you out.

Get her out of here,
Trivette. It's gonna blow.

You're okay. You're all right.

It's okay.

My name is Darcy
Reynolds, and I'm a survivor.

Um, on the night
of my 21st birthday,

my girlfriends took
me out to celebrate.

I remember I was really excited.

You know, it was the first time

I ever was in a real night club.

On that night, I was raped.

By three criminals.

And it turned my whole
world upside down.

Trying to make sense
of this whole thing, it...

It hasn't been easy.

Because, well, at first I...

I didn't wanna talk about it.

I didn't think anyone
would understand me.

It was like I was
crying on the inside

and no one could hear me.

But thanks to Karen
and this group, I...

I really learned
that sharing this pain

gives you strength.

And I wanted to thank you,

especially my mom,

'cause she's been
with me so much.

I love you.

I love you too, baby.

Thanks, Mom.
