size, but that's about it. No latent, no ID.Copy !req

82. Hi, excuse me... I'll be
with you in a minute, okay?Copy !req
83. Tell me that these
are worth $100.Copy !req
84. That's cheap. Maureen's been
begging me for a pair, costs $150.Copy !req
85. All of her friends have them.
Probably costs $3 to make.Copy !req
86. That's including the 50 cents a day

No thanks, though...Copy !req
88. I'd like you to look
at this receipt, please.Copy !req

know that Mary Magdalene was a whore.Copy !req
125. She repented.Copy !req

me, or I'll get to Heaven before you.Copy !req
127. What can I do for you,
Detective? You know her?Copy !req
128. No. Pretty young thing.
What a shame.Copy !req
129. Just the kind of girl your
customers would like, right?Copy !req
130. I don't deal in children.
My girls just look the part.Copy !req
131. If she worked in the trade, check
with Willie Maxwell on Amsterdam.Copy !req
132. He rents special videos under the
counter. Anybody knows her, he will.Copy !req
133. I'll pray for you.Copy !req
134. Can I help you
with something, Officers?Copy !req
135. Yeah, have you seen this girl?
She's right up your alley.Copy !req
136. You gonna make me smack you?Copy !req
137. She looks familiar. But, no,
I can't say that I know her.Copy !req
138. Come on, Willie. You and I both know that
you have customers with special needs.Copy !req
139. All we're looking for is
an ID. I've never seen her.Copy !req
140. Hey.Copy !req
141. What's this?
He's returning that.Copy !req
142. Oh, yeah? I want to rent it.
Not available.Copy !req
143. What do you mean?
When I go to Blockbuster...Copy !req
144. I can rent whatever walks in the
door. I want to rent this tape.Copy !req
145. Okay, I know my rights.
You can't take that.Copy !req
146. You don't have probable cause.Copy !req
147. Anything you find without a
search warrant or probable cause...Copy !req
148. is fruit
from the poisonous tree.Copy !req

walk away from this?Copy !req
150. I'm not talking without
my lawyer. No problem.Copy !req
151. We want to make sure you understand
what you're being charged with.Copy !req
152. It's a felony to possess kiddie
porn, magazines, videos, photographs.Copy !req
153. We have a statement from your customer
saying that he rented that video from you.Copy !req
154. That was his tape. No, you
already claimed possession.Copy !req
155. You know something? We're not even
really interested in these charges.Copy !req
156. You're not?
No.Copy !req
157. We're not.Copy !req
158. Then what do you want?
Who's the girl?Copy !req
159. What's in it for me? Now's
not the time to play games.Copy !req
160. Seems like
a pretty good time to me.Copy !req
161. You want something.
You think I've got it.Copy !req
162. Let's barter. Okay.
Here's what we're gonna do.Copy !req
163. We're not going to house you
in general population...Copy !req
164. and announce that a pedophile
is coming through.Copy !req
165. We'll do that
if you ID the girl...Copy !req
166. and give us a list of every
private video customer you have.Copy !req
167. I don't know her.Copy !req
168. She's not a starlet
in one of your productions?Copy !req
169. You think I wouldn't remember
something that sweet?Copy !req
170. I need a shower.
Not until you check this out.Copy !req
171. We got a match
on your Jane Doe.Copy !req
172. Carla Brice, age 13. Height
and weight all looks good.Copy !req
173. From Queens. What about Willie?
We got him on possession.Copy !req
174. We'll get his list of customers
and arrest every hump on it.Copy !req
175. How long has she been missing?
Four days.Copy !req
176. Did you find her?
We don't know.Copy !req
177. That's why we're here. We
need to ask you some questions.Copy !req
178. You must know something,
or you wouldn't have come.Copy !req
179. Does your daughter
wear jewelry?Copy !req
180. A cross my mother gave her.Copy !req
181. And sometimes bracelets and a
necklace. What kind of bracelets?Copy !req
182. I don't know.
She traded with her friends.Copy !req
183. Is she hurt?
Is my baby all right?Copy !req
184. Did your daughter
participate in any sports?Copy !req
185. Track.Copy !req
186. Why are you asking me these
questions? Tell me, what do you know?Copy !req
187. Mrs. Brice,
did anybody hurt Carla?Copy !req
188. It's all my fault.Copy !req
189. We moved here to get away from
her father, but he found us.Copy !req
190. She was trying to protect me, and
he hit her, and then she took off.Copy !req
191. Had this happened before?
Yes.Copy !req
192. But Carla always came home.Copy !req
193. God, I'm so sorry.Copy !req
194. I tried to get away from him.Copy !req
195. Please take me to see her.Copy !req
196. We're ready.
I can't.Copy !req
197. It's okay. We're right here.
We're going to stay with you, okay?Copy !req
198. We're going to
stay right here.Copy !req
199. Hold on to me.
That's it. You set?Copy !req
200. Oh, my God!Copy !req
201. It's not her.
It's not my Carla.Copy !req
202. All the details seemed right,
Captain.Copy !req
203. Everything matched up,
down to the broken bones.Copy !req
204. Mistakes happen.
You did your job.Copy !req
205. Yeah, sometimes
this job stinks.Copy !req
206. We had a uni
take home Mrs. Brice.Copy !req
207. Told her we'd keep an eye out
for Missing Persons.Copy !req
208. Who's gonna keep an eye
out for Jane Doe? I am.Copy !req
209. Lab lifted off
two sets of prints.Copy !req
210. One the victim's,
another partial.Copy !req
211. Neither in the system. By the
way, those are real diamonds.Copy !req
212. How do you know that? One of my
exes had a taste for fine jewelry.Copy !req
213. Five teddy bears studded with
diamonds. Folks must have money.Copy !req
214. "All my love, Popi. "
I'd like to talk to him.Copy !req
215. Maybe we can. Piece like that,
handcrafted, probably one of a kind.Copy !req
216. I know a guy
in the jewelry district...Copy !req
217. who could probably give us a
read on who made this stuff.Copy !req
218. That's a start. Meanwhile, you
two get back to Missing Persons.Copy !req
219. Cast a wider net.Copy !req
220. Outer boroughs, out of state, outer
space. She's got to come from somewhere.Copy !req
221. Very cute.

but not exactly helpful.Copy !req

well cut.Copy !req
226. Look at the pavé work.
It's exceptional.Copy !req
227. Anything that points to a
specific designer or craftsman?Copy !req
228. You see that initial on the
bear's paw? If you say so.Copy !req
229. Yeah, that 'W' stands for Wallerstein.
Emil Wallerstein. One of the best.Copy !req
230. Do you know where we can
find him? He's semi-retired.Copy !req
231. Only designs for one store.Copy !req
232. His son-in-law's, Petrie's.
Corner of Park and 59th.Copy !req
233. Thanks a lot. See you again.
Yeah.Copy !req
234. We get 20 reports a day.
All go into the computer...Copy !req
235. crosschecked against the DOA's
brought into the Medical Examiner.Copy !req
236. We gave you the only match.Copy !req
237. Let's fudge it a little with the
hair color, height and weight.Copy !req
238. Depending on when she disappeared,
those stats might have changed.Copy !req
239. Here's one, 34, red hair.
No. Next.Copy !req
240. How about this?
Twenty-five... No, too tall.Copy !req
241. Twenty-one-year-old, butterfly
tattoo on left buttock.Copy !req

the wall, like I told you.Copy !req
255. That's my girl. Now, go.Copy !req
256. Amanda, Patsy, Lori,
take a lesson from Danielle.Copy !req
257. She has a heart of a champion.
Ilya Korska?Copy !req
258. Kind of hard on them,
aren't you?Copy !req
259. They don't know what they're
capable of until they try.Copy !req
260. They know that I push them
because I love them.Copy !req
261. Who let you in here?
Detective Stabler.Copy !req
262. This is my partner,
Detective Benson.Copy !req
263. You found Kristy? Is there
someplace we can go and talk?Copy !req
264. Keep her working.Copy !req
265. Who would do such a thing?Copy !req
266. The Missing Persons report
lists you as her guardian.Copy !req
267. Her parents placed her under my
care so that she could train here.Copy !req
268. Nothing like this
has ever happened.Copy !req
269. Where are her parents?
In Oregon.Copy !req
270. They have money?
Not really.Copy !req
271. Father sells insurance,
mother is a secretary.Copy !req
272. They sacrificed everything so that
Kristy could train with the best.Copy !req
273. What about boyfriends?
Anyone named Popi?Copy !req
274. My girls have no time
for boyfriends.Copy !req
275. They're teenagers.Copy !req
276. They are elite athletes, striving for
an honor that very few will attain.Copy !req
277. To win a gold medal requires
absolute dedication. Kristy had that.Copy !req
278. When was the last time
you saw her?Copy !req
279. Day before last,
after practice.Copy !req
280. Where'd she go after practice?
I assume that she went home.Copy !req
281. You're her guardian.
Didn't she stay with you?Copy !req
282. No, she lived with a family
whose young daughter I also train.Copy !req
283. Very good people.Copy !req
284. We're going to need their address and
anyone else connected with the gym.Copy !req
285. Workers, coaches, athletes.
Of course.Copy !req
286. Anything I can do to help.Copy !req
287. She could have
been a champion.Copy !req
288. I bet Kristy got those bruises
working out. I'd call it abuse.Copy !req
289. I'll get the car.Copy !req
290. You looked pretty terrific
on those bars.Copy !req
291. Yeah, right.
I'm the big dough girl.Copy !req
292. What're you talking about? You
don't have an ounce of fat on you.Copy !req
293. Why'd I get my period?
Because it's natural.Copy !req
294. No, because I'm
not training hard enough.Copy !req
295. Love your open-door policy.Copy !req
296. May I help you?
Yes. This belong to you?Copy !req
297. It's one of our custom pieces.
Exquisite, isn't it?Copy !req
298. How much is it worth?Copy !req
299. Without checking the computer,
I'd estimate around $8,000.Copy !req
300. Would that computer be able
to tell us who bought that?Copy !req
301. Of course. We keep meticulous
records on all our clients...Copy !req
302. including past purchases,
birthdays, anniversaries.Copy !req
303. Would you mind
looking it up?Copy !req
304. I have customers waiting. Oh,
yeah? Well, make them wait.Copy !req
305. Has anyone told her parents?
Mr. Korska called them.Copy !req
306. They're flying in from Oregon as
soon as they can book a flight.Copy !req
307. Her mother calls every Wednesday
and Sunday, like clockwork.Copy !req
308. When did you last see Kristy?
Day before yesterday.Copy !req
309. She came home around
dinnertime, like always...Copy !req
310. and changed into her running clothes
and headed out to run with Lori.Copy !req
311. And who's Lori?Copy !req
312. Another gymnast. They run
every night. Never miss.Copy !req
313. She's usually home
by 10:00, though...Copy !req
314. and so when it got to be
midnight, I called llya.Copy !req
315. I haven't slept since. What's
your arrangement with Mr. Korska?Copy !req
316. We board girls in his program. They
come from all over to train with him.Copy !req
317. And not all of the parents
can afford to move with them...Copy !req
318. so llya places them with
families he knows and trusts.Copy !req
319. And what do you get
for your trouble?Copy !req
320. He trains our daughter
Hannah for free.Copy !req
321. And gives us a small stipend
to help defray costs.Copy !req
322. But we do it because we love
the girls and want to help.Copy !req
323. Are there any other boys
or young men living here?Copy !req
324. No. Kristy was
our only boarder.Copy !req
325. Who are you talking to?
What's wrong, Mommy?Copy !req
326. Nothing, sweetheart,
this is...Copy !req
327. Hi, I'm Olivia.
This is my friend Elliott.Copy !req
328. Hi.
Hi.Copy !req
329. What's your name?
Hannah.Copy !req
330. Hey, Hannah.
She idolizes Kristy.Copy !req
331. What do you say Hannah shows me
Kristy's room? Let you two finish up.Copy !req
332. Sweetheart, would you like to
show Olivia Kristy's room?Copy !req
333. Okay.Copy !req
334. Did Kristy ever
talk about her social life?Copy !req
335. You know, boyfriends,
guys in the neighborhood?Copy !req
336. Gymnastics was her life.Copy !req
337. She dreamed of going to the Olympics.
It was all she ever talked about.Copy !req
338. She ever mention someone
named Popi? Not that I recall.Copy !req
339. What can you tell me about her
relationship with Coach Korska?Copy !req
340. She adored him,
feared him, respected him.Copy !req
341. She was so grateful to be
accepted into his program...Copy !req
342. I think she would have done
anything for him.Copy !req
343. I mean, sometimes I even
thought she tried too hard.Copy !req
344. Kristy's really good. She teaches me
things, like how to tuck when I somersault.Copy !req
345. Do you know when she's
coming home? You know what?Copy !req
346. Your mom is going to
talk to you about that later.Copy !req
347. But first, maybe you can help
me do something to help her.Copy !req
348. What? I'm trying to
find Kristy's boyfriend.Copy !req
349. Did he ever come over?
No.Copy !req
350. No. Do you ever remember Kristy
talking about somebody named Popi?Copy !req
351. You do? What did she say?Copy !req
352. My mom says it's not nice
to spy on people.Copy !req
353. I know, and your mom's right. But you
know what? I'm just trying to help her.Copy !req
354. So, it's okay.
You can tell me.Copy !req
355. Sometimes Kristy
talked to him on the phone.Copy !req
356. She said she'd meet him
after she went running.Copy !req
357. Did you ever hear Kristy say
where Popi lives?Copy !req
358. No.
No.Copy !req
359. Do you remember hearing
Kristy say anything else?Copy !req
360. This is really important.
One time she thanked him.Copy !req
361. For what?Copy !req
362. This teddy bear.
Kristy loves teddy bears.Copy !req
363. Am I noticing a theme here?Copy !req
364. Another gift from Popi, who,
by the way, is not her father.Copy !req
365. According to Hannah, Kristy used to
sneak out to meet him on her nightly runs.Copy !req
366. I have
the running mate's address.Copy !req
367. I waited till 8:30, but she never
showed, so I just ran without her.Copy !req
368. You two run together every
night? Yeah, 8:00 sharp.Copy !req
369. We meet at the pier and run along the
promenade to Battery Park City and back.Copy !req
370. That's a hell of a jog.
We're in training.Copy !req
371. We've got to drop the weight
or Korska will drop us.Copy !req
372. He that tough?Copy !req
373. He pulls out a tape measure and
scale for surprise inspections.Copy !req
374. If you don't measure up, you're
out. It's the only way you can win.Copy !req
375. Tell us about Popi.
Who?Copy !req
376. Lori, come on. We know Kristy used these
nightly runs as an excuse to go see him.Copy !req
377. I don't know
what you're talking about.Copy !req
378. There's no reason
to cover for her anymore.Copy !req
379. I'm not covering for anybody.Copy !req
380. Kristy loved gymnastics. She never
met with any guy when she was with me.Copy !req
381. That's grounds for dismissal.Copy !req
382. Can we talk later?
I'm late for my workout.Copy !req
383. Sure.
Wouldn't want to hold you up.Copy !req
384. What's the matter?
What?Copy !req
385. What, "what"?
You tell me what.Copy !req
386. I'm just... I'm not
cutting it. Cutting what?Copy !req
387. This college recruiter came from
Columbia today to talk to us.Copy !req
388. Yeah? And it's a really great school.Copy !req
389. Okay.Copy !req
390. What's the problem?Copy !req
391. I got a B+
on my English midterm.Copy !req
392. That's great.Copy !req
393. I'm never going to get in
with grades like that.Copy !req
394. Maureen, you're 15. Relax.Copy !req
395. Nothing like
a little healthy competition.Copy !req
396. We found a stockpile of diuretics
and laxatives in Kristy's room.Copy !req
397. What ever happened to just
hanging out on the jungle gym?Copy !req
398. Went the way of your eight-track tape.
These girls are competing in a world...Copy !req
399. where anything less than a
perfect 10 is considered failure.Copy !req
400. And llya Korska is the pied
piper to the promised land.Copy !req
401. What's up with this guy,
anyway?Copy !req
402. Defected from Bulgaria in '88.Copy !req
403. Coached 13 gold medallists and
scores of silvers and bronze.Copy !req
404. Has a multi-million-dollar
endorsement contract...Copy !req
405. and he just he runs a lucrative
private coaching business.Copy !req
406. Got no priors.
Running a check with Interpol.Copy !req
407. Any luck on your end?Copy !req
408. We traced the bracelet to
a guy named Kyle Hubert, 42.Copy !req
409. A high-end real estate broker
on the Upper West Side.Copy !req
410. Wait a minute.
I know that name.Copy !req
411. Listed as a Gold Circle contributor
to the llya Korska Athletic Foundation.Copy !req
412. Well, looks like
we found Popi.Copy !req
413. One of our board members
called just before you arrived.Copy !req
414. Are you certain that it wasn't
an accident? It was murder.Copy !req
415. You have a blank check from me to
help catch the animal that did this.Copy !req
416. Thank you, that won't be
necessary. Is this Kristy?Copy !req
417. Yes. She was amazingly gifted.Copy !req
418. Lithe, fluid, graceful.Copy !req
419. She could have taken
the gold at Nationals.Copy !req
420. How long have you been
involved in girls' gymnastics?Copy !req
421. As a donor, 10 years. I try
to help out wherever I can.Copy !req
422. You've given quite a bit of money
to llya Korska's organization.Copy !req
423. He's the best coach
in the country.Copy !req
424. We've also heard that
you've been quite generous.Copy !req
425. Some of the girls received
scholarships and expensive gifts.Copy !req
426. Those who show special
promise and talent.Copy !req
427. You recognize this bracelet?Copy !req
428. I bought it for Kristy. Why?Copy !req
429. You always engrave your gifts,
"With all my love, Popi"?Copy !req
430. It was her nickname for me. She said
that I reminded her of her father.Copy !req
431. When did you give it to her?
Tuesday.Copy !req
432. The night she died.Copy !req
433. You give it to her that night?
No, in the morning.Copy !req
434. Where were you
Tuesday night?Copy !req
435. Here, working late.
How late?Copy !req
436. 10:00, 11:00.
Can anyone verify that?Copy !req
437. What are you insinuating?Copy !req
438. That you were sleeping
with her. I was not.Copy !req
439. Would you be willing to submit
to a blood test to confirm that?Copy !req
440. Absolutely not.
Why not?Copy !req
441. I won't be subjected
to your witch-hunt tactics.Copy !req
442. We only want the truth.Copy !req
443. Talk to my lawyer.Copy !req
444. We're gonna need a court order
to get that sample.Copy !req
445. Why don't we
hit Korska's place,Copy !req
446. see what the girls have to say
about their benefactor.Copy !req
447. Maybe someone saw him
with Kristy that night.Copy !req
448. I've known him for 10 years.
He's a fine, upstanding gentleman.Copy !req
449. We believe that he was having a
relationship with Kristy Meyerson.Copy !req
450. Impossible. My girls
don't have relationships.Copy !req
451. He gave her a very expensive
bracelet. As a reward for working hard.Copy !req
452. Kyle Hubert
is respected by the USOC...Copy !req
453. and every athletic governing
body associated with gymnastics.Copy !req
454. If it wasn't for him,
we wouldn't be here.Copy !req
455. Excuse me.Copy !req
456. Girls! Come.Copy !req
457. All right, let's go.
On the bar.Copy !req
458. I don't feel I'm missing out on anything.
My dream is to go to the Olympics.Copy !req
459. Tell me about your coach. He's
amazing. I'm so lucky to be here.Copy !req
460. You don't mind all the yelling
and screaming?Copy !req
461. No, it's worse if he ignores you.
That means he doesn't care anymore.Copy !req
462. What happened to your wrist?
I was working on a new move.Copy !req
463. A double-twisting double back.Copy !req
464. It must've been wet. I slipped.
I gotta get back to my work now.Copy !req
465. Yeah, just one second.
I just have one more question.Copy !req
466. Do you know a guy named
Kyle Hubert? You know him?Copy !req
467. I hate how he's
always staring at us.Copy !req
468. He ever give you presents? Sometimes.
Like a new outfit or a gym bag.Copy !req
469. Or this one time he gave me body lotion.
He told me to think of him when I used it.Copy !req
470. So tell me about an average
day. I'm up by 4:30...Copy !req
471. get here at 5:00, leave by 9:00
and then I have school till 1:30.Copy !req
472. Sometimes llya gets the doctor to
write a note, and I don't have to go.Copy !req
473. Lucky you.Copy !req
474. Then after school, I have practice
till 9:00 or 10:00 and I do my homework.Copy !req
475. So when do you eat? I only
have breakfast and some fruit.Copy !req
476. I gotta lose weight
if I'm gonna make the cut.Copy !req
477. What can you tell me
about Kyle Hubert?Copy !req
478. He hangs around a lot.
Watches us practice.Copy !req
479. He pays for my room and board.Copy !req
480. And there's this one thing
he does that makes me so mad.Copy !req
481. What's that?
He calls me Olive Oyl.Copy !req
482. I scored 38
in my last five comps.Copy !req
483. I'm not bragging, but I've got a new
dismount that's better than anyone else's.Copy !req
484. Why didn't you tell us
about Kristy's boyfriend?Copy !req
485. What boyfriend?
Kyle Hubert.Copy !req
486. Kyle Hubert?
Yeah.Copy !req
487. She'd meet with him after you two
ran. You never knew about that?Copy !req
488. Why would she tell me? If I'd
known, I'd have to tell Coach. Rules.Copy !req
489. It all makes sense, though.
Yeah? What does?Copy !req
490. Mr. Hubert was always
giving her the best presents.Copy !req
491. Bracelets, clothes,
stuffed animals.Copy !req
492. I guess she liked
all the attention.Copy !req
493. Wouldn't you?Copy !req
494. He creeps me out.Copy !req
495. Alibi?
He says he worked late.Copy !req
496. Nobody was there to confirm or
deny. What about the bracelet?Copy !req
497. He gives all the girls gifts.Copy !req
498. Apparently he gives himself only to
Kristy. At least no one else is talking.Copy !req
499. But his financials
made a statement.Copy !req
500. Daddy Rich Bucks has a little love
nest. TRW came back with two mortgages.Copy !req
501. One for a pad uptown. The other, a
couple of blocks from the slaughterhouse.Copy !req
502. They were here.
What time?Copy !req
503. Around 8:00.
You sure about that?Copy !req
504. She ran out the building
crying. He ran after her.Copy !req
505. Did you hear anything else?
He said he'd never let her go.Copy !req
506. Told me the girl
was his daughter.Copy !req
507. Got it.
Let's go.Copy !req
508. That son of a bitch.Copy !req
509. Welcome to Fantasyland.Copy !req
510. Perfect for a fairy princess.Copy !req
511. He's no prince.Copy !req
512. A little girl's dream
turned into a nightmare.Copy !req
513. Kyle liked to party.
And savor the memories.Copy !req
514. Looks like Daddy
forgot to change the sheets.Copy !req
515. The semen-stained sheets gave us enough
DNA to match the semen from the body.Copy !req
516. Not to mention the letters,
pictures and videotapes.Copy !req
517. And an apartment manager who puts you
with Kristy the night of the murder.Copy !req
518. Why would I kill her?
I worshipped her.Copy !req
519. Is that why she went running from your
apartment in tears the night she died?Copy !req
520. She had ended it with you,
hadn't she?Copy !req
521. You couldn't
take the rejection.Copy !req
522. Or risk the exposure.
What?Copy !req
523. You raped and murdered her.
I did not.Copy !req
524. Twelve hours of videotape
and matched semen say you did.Copy !req
525. It was consensual.
She was 16.Copy !req
526. It's called statutory rape. Consensual
or not, you're going to jail.Copy !req
527. The only question is
for how long.Copy !req
528. Is that what
this is all about?Copy !req
529. That sense of humor is going to serve
you well with your bunkmates up in Attica.Copy !req
530. I could have saved you
both a lot of work.Copy !req
531. We kept our relationship
private, to protect the program.Copy !req
532. Kristy was not a child.Copy !req
533. She was 19 years old.Copy !req
534. Hubert's not lying. She was 19. We
got a copy of her birth certificate.Copy !req
535. In other words,
you've got no case.Copy !req
536. It's amazing.
She only looks 14.Copy !req
537. It's sick,
but it's not illegal.Copy !req
538. Then why did Kristy
lie about her age?Copy !req
539. By the time she was
good enough for Korska...Copy !req
540. she was older than most girls,
so she shaved off a few years.Copy !req
541. She did a damn good job of covering her
tracks. Korska claims he didn't know.Copy !req
542. How did Hubert? He follows
all the local events.Copy !req
543. He notices Kristy's been
around longer than she claims.Copy !req
544. He preyed
on her vulnerability.Copy !req
545. These girls sacrifice
their childhoods to win.Copy !req
546. They're starved for love.
Not to mention food.Copy !req
547. They stopped eating to
maintain their perfect weight.Copy !req
548. That stops their menstrual cycle. No
cycle, no estrogen. No estrogen, no growth.Copy !req
549. Physically,
emotionally and sexually.Copy !req
550. Leaves guys like Hubert
just licking their chops.Copy !req
551. Yeah, but it's not a motive
for killing her.Copy !req
552. What about Korska?Copy !req
553. Look, the kids
aren't the only onesCopy !req
554. performing for the judges.Copy !req
555. Prints off the bracelet came back. One
is Kristy's. The other isn't Hubert's.Copy !req
556. Check Immigration.
They'll have prints on Korska.Copy !req
557. This guy may be
up to more than we think.Copy !req
558. Captain,
Mom and Dad are here.Copy !req
559. She was so pretty.
An angel.Copy !req
560. Do you have any idea who
might have hurt your daughter?Copy !req
561. No. Everyone loved her. No,
everyone loved to watch her.Copy !req
562. We put our life savings
into her training.Copy !req
563. Traveled to competitions,
moved from coach to coach.Copy !req
564. She was
so close to her dream.Copy !req
565. Why did Kristy lie about
her age? She didn't lie.Copy !req
566. She just didn't discuss it. Korska
doesn't like to work with older girls.Copy !req
567. She was a young woman.
Did she ever date?Copy !req
568. Kristy was a virgin.Copy !req
569. She was seeing someone.
What are you talking about?Copy !req
570. She never told me. She
knew you'd never understand.Copy !req
571. I am her mother. I did it all
for her. You did it for yourself.Copy !req
572. What else did Kristy tell you?
That she was in love with him.Copy !req
573. And desperately afraid Korska would dump
her from the program if he found out.Copy !req
574. Coach kept a tight rein
on his girls.Copy !req
575. And a tight grip
on Kristy's wrist.Copy !req
576. His prints
were on the bracelet.Copy !req
577. Arms straight.
Keep your arms straight.Copy !req
578. Lori.Copy !req
579. Lori.
Can't talk now.Copy !req
580. We're looking for your coach.
He went to dinner.Copy !req
581. Hey, what's wrong?Copy !req
582. I swore not to tell.Copy !req
583. Lori, I don't know what the problem
is, but honestly, we just want to help.Copy !req
584. Coach couldn't trust Kristy,
so he had me watch her for him.Copy !req
585. You spied on Kristy?Copy !req
586. Kyle was sleeping with her. He gave
her clothes and a charm bracelet.Copy !req
587. Why didn't you
tell us that before?Copy !req
588. Coach promised me a spot on the team
if I told him and kept my mouth shut.Copy !req
589. Today, he called me fatso and
said I might not make trials.Copy !req
590. When did you tell him?Copy !req
591. The day Kristy died.
What did Korska do?Copy !req
592. He ran off to find her.Copy !req
593. Leave her alone.
She needs to practice.Copy !req
594. We're done with Lori, but we've
got some questions for you.Copy !req
595. Girls are always coming to me
with their petty complaints.Copy !req
596. Lori said that you
told her to watch Kristy.Copy !req
597. Stupid kid was throwing it away.
For what? Clothes? Trinkets?Copy !req
598. Love?
Love has no place in my gym.Copy !req
599. Where did you go after Lori
told you about Kyle?Copy !req
600. I followed her to the
dirty cockroach's apartment.Copy !req
601. And then? And then I
left. What could I do?Copy !req
602. No, you didn't.
You waited for her.Copy !req
603. Kyle Hubert gave her a bracelet
that night. Your prints were on it.Copy !req
604. All right. I grabbed her wrist
when she came out.Copy !req
605. Her hair was messed up.
She smelled like sex.Copy !req
606. I told her to break it off with
that scum or you're through.Copy !req
607. Then she went back inside.Copy !req
608. Then she came running back out crying
after she'd broken it off with him.Copy !req
609. She begged me for forgiveness.
She wanted a second chance.Copy !req
610. So I took the little whore
down the street for a run.Copy !req
611. The girl was hysterical,
and you made her go running?Copy !req
612. I'm not paid
to teach weakness.Copy !req
613. What time
did you drop her off?Copy !req
614. 8:15.Copy !req
615. Korska claims he picked up
Kristy at Hubert's apartment...Copy !req
616. and dropped her off
to run at 8:15.Copy !req
617. Assuming Korska's telling the truth.
Which he may not be, since Lori says...Copy !req
618. that she didn't run with Kristy
the night of Kristy's murder.Copy !req
619. Old lady Pappas says she heard
someone yell "whore" an hour later.Copy !req
620. Right outside,
Kristy's body was found.Copy !req
621. Something made her veer off
that promenade.Copy !req
622. So if we can figure out what
happened to her from here...Copy !req
623. to where she
veered off the promenade...Copy !req
624. we'll know how her body got
behind that dumpster.Copy !req
625. Sounds like mere speculation
masquerading as fact.Copy !req
626. Your theory
cries for an eyewitness.Copy !req
627. And something tells me you have one,
or you wouldn't be acting so smug.Copy !req
628. Am I that transparent?Copy !req
629. "V" is for your
friendly neighborhood vendor.Copy !req
630. I went to the promenade this morning.
I spoke to a couple of joggers.Copy !req
631. They said this guy sets up his cart
around noon and stays till late.Copy !req
632. What do you say we go pay
Munch's hunch a visit?Copy !req
633. Yeah, I seen her. She's the
one that got herself killed.Copy !req
634. She used to come by running here
every night with that cute redhead.Copy !req
635. I tell you, I could set my watch
by her. Can you ID the redhead?Copy !req
636. Yeah. Sweet little thing.Copy !req
637. Yeah. She used to always get a
water for herself and her friend.Copy !req
638. She still run by here? Every
night. I'll tell you, it worries me.Copy !req
639. I always thought they were
too young to be out at night.Copy !req
640. Do you remember the last time
you saw them running together?Copy !req
641. Last Monday. On account
of I'm off on Tuesdays.Copy !req
642. Same night Kristy was killed. You're
sure they were together Monday?Copy !req
643. Positive. They stopped
by for their usual water.Copy !req
644. Though, come to think of it, they
took off in another direction.Copy !req
645. Which way?
Down that street.Copy !req
646. Usually they
stay on the jogging path.Copy !req
647. But I think maybe they
were trying a new route.Copy !req
648. 8:30 exactly.
Just like clockwork.Copy !req
649. Lori, can I talk to you for a
second? I got to finish my run.Copy !req
650. This won't take long.
You're in my way.Copy !req
651. Kind of like Kristy
was in your way?Copy !req
652. How long am I gonna be here?
I've got to go train.Copy !req
653. Coach is gonna cut me
if I don't make weight.Copy !req
654. Just a few more questions.Copy !req
655. Okay, you said that Kyle Hubert
gave Kristy a charm bracelet?Copy !req
656. Right? Yeah, he gave
her a lot of nice things.Copy !req
657. Lori, how did you
know about the bracelet...Copy !req
658. when you didn't see Kristy
the night she died?Copy !req
659. You want me to be
sorry she's dead.Copy !req
660. I'm not.Copy !req
661. I didn't have some
rich boyfriend, okay?Copy !req
662. I didn't have some pretty little
face. Nobody ever cared about me.Copy !req
663. So Kristy
got all the attention.Copy !req
664. She got everything so easy.Copy !req
665. I do it all on my own.Copy !req
666. My parents don't love me.Copy !req
667. The only one who does
is Coach, and...Copy !req
668. he lied to me.
How'd he lie to you?Copy !req
669. He promised me I could
have her spot if I told him.Copy !req
670. Kristy was waiting for me.Copy !req
671. She had broken up with Kyle, and
Coach said he'd keep her on the team.Copy !req
672. That left no place for me.Copy !req
673. And you couldn't let her take that
away from you, could you, Lori?Copy !req
674. We started to argue.Copy !req
675. She got everything so easy.Copy !req
676. She started to run away,
so I followed her.Copy !req
677. The brick just
flew out of my hand.Copy !req
678. I didn't
mean for it to hit her.Copy !req
679. She made me do it.Copy !req
680. Alignment! Tummies in.Copy !req
681. Coming to stir up
more trouble?Copy !req
682. Lori confessed
to killing Kristy.Copy !req
683. Lori's an imbecile.Copy !req
684. Strong arms.Copy !req
685. Again.Copy !req
686. She wants to see you.
Soon. After Nationals.Copy !req
687. Very nice, my little pumpkins,
very nice. Up again.Copy !req
688. Show Korska what you can do.Copy !req
689. Legs together.
Tummy in. Good.Copy !req
690. That's my girls.Copy !req
