00:11:02,770 --> 00:11:05,816
teach you this in cop school,
there is a little thing
178
00:11:05,860 --> 00:11:07,209
known as the First Amendment.
179
00:11:07,252 --> 00:11:09,472
- Well, I actually
went to lawyer school,
180
00:11:09,515 --> 00:11:11,169
where they taught us
about subpoenas.
181
00:11:11,213 --> 00:11:13,737
So how about I go get one
for every hard drive
182
00:11:13,781 --> 00:11:15,783
in this dump?
- We start kicking the tires,
183
00:11:15,826 --> 00:11:17,872
you don't think we're gonna
find dozens of minors
184
00:11:17,915 --> 00:11:20,048
in your little video cache?
185
00:11:20,091 --> 00:11:21,963
- Maybe we got off
on the wrong foot.
186
00:11:22,006 --> 00:11:23,878
[sighs]
Let's start again.
187
00:11:23,921 --> 00:11:25,183
I can scrub this from our site,
188
00:11:25,227 --> 00:11:26,489
but it's not gonna
mean anything.
189
00:11:26,532 --> 00:11:28,839
Nothing disappears
from the internet.
190
00:11:28,883 --> 00:11:31,015
No, it gets pirated,
goes airborne,
191
00:11:31,059 --> 00:11:32,800
and then mutates
like the Plague.
192
00:11:32,843 --> 00:11:35,063
- Well, for now,
let's eliminate Patient Zero.
193
00:11:35,106 --> 00:11:37,892
How did you get this?
194
00:11:37,935 --> 00:11:39,937
- Well, yeah, that's my email,
but I--
195
00:11:39,981 --> 00:11:42,113
I don't even look at porn,
so someone must have hacked me.
196
00:11:42,157 --> 00:11:44,855
- Oh, you were hacked?
You don't watch porn?
197
00:11:44,899 --> 00:11:46,030
Really?
That's the best you can
198
00:11:46,074 --> 00:11:47,815
come up with?
Because you're a dancer,
199
00:11:47,858 --> 00:11:50,818
you had access to Studio X.
Now, are we gonna find
200
00:11:50,861 --> 00:11:52,820
your prints on the camera?
- I-I don't know anything
201
00:11:52,863 --> 00:11:54,430
about a camera.
- Hmm.
202
00:11:54,473 --> 00:11:56,824
- I--I mean, yeah, I've been
in the studio, but either way,
203
00:11:56,867 --> 00:11:58,826
it wasn't me.
Brad's a friend.
204
00:11:58,869 --> 00:12:00,175
- How about Delia?
205
00:12:00,218 --> 00:12:02,090
- Well, she's new.
I barely know her.
206
00:12:02,133 --> 00:12:03,352
[rapping on window]
207
00:12:05,136 --> 00:12:08,096
You get a little more time
to work on your story.
208
00:12:09,358 --> 00:12:10,794
[door opens]
209
00:12:10,838 --> 00:12:13,797
- TARU went through
Jason's phone.
210
00:12:13,841 --> 00:12:15,973
He uploaded the video
to Pornmonger,
211
00:12:16,017 --> 00:12:18,236
but he didn't record it.
212
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:22,066
- So who did?
- It was texted to him by Brad.
213
00:12:22,110 --> 00:12:24,547
Along with other
homemade sex videos.
214
00:12:24,590 --> 00:12:27,115
- So the nice, sweet guy
215
00:12:27,158 --> 00:12:30,335
twirling his baton out in front
of the victim bandwagon--
216
00:12:30,379 --> 00:12:32,816
- Are you surprised?
217
00:12:34,122 --> 00:12:37,038
- They were both in on it?
218
00:12:37,081 --> 00:12:42,304
Jason was always hitting on me,
but Brad, he...
219
00:12:43,958 --> 00:12:46,917
He's a gentleman.
Are you sure?
220
00:12:46,961 --> 00:12:48,919
- Sorry, Delia.
- From the looks of the video,
221
00:12:48,963 --> 00:12:52,053
he knew exactly
what he was doing,
222
00:12:52,096 --> 00:12:54,316
where the camera was...
223
00:12:56,405 --> 00:13:01,279
- In ballet, the boys move
the girls--that's how it works.
224
00:13:01,323 --> 00:13:07,982
Brad placed me on the barre,
in front of the camera.
225
00:13:11,159 --> 00:13:15,032
How could I be so stupid?
- You couldn't have known.
226
00:13:17,295 --> 00:13:21,212
And you weren't
the only dancer.
227
00:13:21,256 --> 00:13:23,345
- Brad, Jason,
Edward Jenkins...
228
00:13:24,955 --> 00:13:26,130
- He's in the corps.
229
00:13:26,174 --> 00:13:29,090
- They shared your video
in a group text,
230
00:13:29,133 --> 00:13:35,009
and there were videos
with other women.
231
00:13:40,666 --> 00:13:44,105
- That's Beck Silva.
She's in the corps, too.
232
00:13:49,327 --> 00:13:52,983
That's Grace Pressley.
233
00:13:53,027 --> 00:13:55,203
Ashley Fallon.
234
00:13:55,246 --> 00:13:56,900
[sobbing softly]
235
00:13:56,944 --> 00:13:58,989
I feel sick.
236
00:14:10,348 --> 00:14:10,479
.
237
00:14:10,522 --> 00:14:13,047
- Edward and I
hooked up last year.
238
00:14:13,090 --> 00:14:14,875
This was at his parents' house.
239
00:14:16,528 --> 00:14:19,531
This one...
oh, my God.
240
00:14:20,837 --> 00:14:23,666
That's Alistair's desk.
241
00:14:23,709 --> 00:14:25,798
Edward kind of dared me.
242
00:14:25,842 --> 00:14:27,800
- Did you know
he was filming you?
243
00:14:27,844 --> 00:14:30,891
- No.
244
00:14:30,934 --> 00:14:33,328
I'm on a visa.
I have to be careful.
245
00:14:37,506 --> 00:14:39,769
Who's seen these?
246
00:14:43,816 --> 00:14:46,645
- Did Jason post this
on the porn site too?
247
00:14:46,689 --> 00:14:50,736
- Not to our knowledge.
- I can't have that happen.
248
00:14:50,780 --> 00:14:52,738
I'm engaged.
My fiancé's family
249
00:14:52,782 --> 00:14:54,871
is very religious.
250
00:14:54,915 --> 00:14:57,569
- I don't think Jason
wants to make things worse.
251
00:14:57,613 --> 00:14:58,962
He's in a lot of trouble
right now.
252
00:14:59,006 --> 00:15:02,574
- Not with the company.
There are 20 ballerinas
253
00:15:02,618 --> 00:15:05,099
to every male dancer.
254
00:15:05,142 --> 00:15:09,668
These guys can't get fired.
[sighs]
255
00:15:09,712 --> 00:15:11,888
[breathes deeply]
256
00:15:13,542 --> 00:15:17,459
- Yeah, so that happened.
- You knew?
257
00:15:17,502 --> 00:15:19,722
- Did I know I was
having sex with Brad?
258
00:15:19,765 --> 00:15:23,465
Yeah.
Did I know I was being filmed?
259
00:15:23,508 --> 00:15:25,423
I mean, not that time,
but everyone's made
260
00:15:25,467 --> 00:15:27,730
a sex tape or two, right?
Anyway, just thank God
261
00:15:27,773 --> 00:15:29,862
it didn't get posted
like Delia's.
262
00:15:29,906 --> 00:15:32,474
- Captain Benson,
is everything all right?
263
00:15:32,517 --> 00:15:35,477
- Uh, actually, no.
- Ashley?
264
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:37,131
- Uh, yeah,
just heading to rehearsal.
265
00:15:37,174 --> 00:15:39,960
- Oh, good, you need it.
You too, Tina.
266
00:15:40,003 --> 00:15:41,787
Let's go, honey.
- Right behind her.
267
00:15:41,831 --> 00:15:43,006
- Mm-hmm.
268
00:15:43,050 --> 00:15:45,139
- This is Sascha Thomas,
our choreographer.
269
00:15:45,182 --> 00:15:47,619
- Captain Benson.
- I filled him in.
270
00:15:47,663 --> 00:15:49,230
- Yeah.
271
00:15:49,273 --> 00:15:52,885
And I'm working around three
male dancers being unavailable
272
00:15:52,929 --> 00:15:56,672
this afternoon because
they're sitting in detention
273
00:15:56,715 --> 00:15:58,891
at your station.
- They may be unavailable
274
00:15:58,935 --> 00:16:01,459
longer than that.
- Oh, come on now.
275
00:16:01,503 --> 00:16:04,723
There's no one sexier
than young dancers.
276
00:16:04,767 --> 00:16:07,726
Get enough of them in a room
together, this is what happens.
277
00:16:07,770 --> 00:16:10,642
- Sascha, this is more than
just boys being boys.
278
00:16:10,686 --> 00:16:12,644
- Yeah, I get it, yes.
[chuckles]
279
00:16:12,688 --> 00:16:15,473
We'll make sure that whatever's
been happening stops now.
280
00:16:15,517 --> 00:16:17,171
And it won't happen again.
281
00:16:17,214 --> 00:16:20,696
- Well, depending on where this
goes, they could be looking
282
00:16:20,739 --> 00:16:24,569
at prison time.
- Hmm, well...
283
00:16:24,613 --> 00:16:26,528
that does not work
284
00:16:26,571 --> 00:16:29,748
because we have a premiere
in three days.
285
00:16:29,792 --> 00:16:31,881
We're talking hundreds of jobs,
weeks of rehearsal,
286
00:16:31,924 --> 00:16:33,491
millions of dollars
on the line--
287
00:16:33,535 --> 00:16:34,971
- Piece of advice?
288
00:16:37,278 --> 00:16:39,976
Let's set aside some time
for understudies.
289
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,635
- Excuse me.
290
00:16:50,247 --> 00:16:52,728
- Unlawful surveillance?
- Mm-hmm.
291
00:16:52,771 --> 00:16:54,947
- It's obviously consensual.
292
00:16:54,991 --> 00:16:56,993
The girls look like
they're playing to the camera.
293
00:16:57,037 --> 00:16:58,995
- Well, they all say
that they weren't aware
294
00:16:59,039 --> 00:17:00,692
they were being recorded.
295
00:17:00,736 --> 00:17:02,955
- Well, my clients
say otherwise.
296
00:17:02,999 --> 00:17:04,827
Maybe the girls
have regrets now.
297
00:17:04,870 --> 00:17:06,698
- They swear they didn't know
they were being filmed,
298
00:17:06,742 --> 00:17:08,961
and they absolutely did not
want the videos shared--
299
00:17:09,005 --> 00:17:10,876
Have you seen the texts
between the boys?
300
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:12,661
Here's a transcript.
Shall we read it out loud?
301
00:17:12,704 --> 00:17:14,576
- All this proves
is that they're idiots.
302
00:17:14,619 --> 00:17:15,925
- [scoffs]
- I should know,
303
00:17:15,968 --> 00:17:19,494
I'm Brad's mother.
Being an idiot is not illegal.
304
00:17:19,537 --> 00:17:20,799
- But dissemination is.
305
00:17:20,843 --> 00:17:22,236
And they're definitely
guilty of that.
306
00:17:22,279 --> 00:17:24,281
- It's just guy stuff.
- A competition.
307
00:17:24,325 --> 00:17:26,501
You know, with, like,
points and everything.
308
00:17:26,544 --> 00:17:27,632
We didn't hurt anyone.
309
00:17:27,676 --> 00:17:29,025
- Why don't you ask Delia?
310
00:17:29,069 --> 00:17:31,984
I mean, you're still
rehearsing together.
311
00:17:32,028 --> 00:17:33,986
Did you even talk to her
about any of this?
312
00:17:34,030 --> 00:17:36,815
- My mom told me not to talk
about this to anyone
313
00:17:36,859 --> 00:17:39,557
because there's...
legal stuff involved.
314
00:17:39,601 --> 00:17:41,777
- My son feels terrible about
this being distributed
315
00:17:41,820 --> 00:17:44,519
on porn sites and had
absolutely no involvement
316
00:17:44,562 --> 00:17:46,086
in that.
- He distributed it via text
317
00:17:46,129 --> 00:17:48,610
to all of his dance buddies.
- First degree.
318
00:17:48,653 --> 00:17:51,003
An E felony.
- Clearly an overreach.
319
00:17:51,047 --> 00:17:53,876
Maybe this rises to the level
of misdemeanor harassment.
320
00:17:53,919 --> 00:17:55,138
- Hmm.
- [scoffs]
321
00:17:55,182 --> 00:17:58,315
- We all know the real
felon here is Jason.
322
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,884
Surveillance, dissemination,
it's all on him.
323
00:18:01,927 --> 00:18:05,105
My clients can help you
make that case.
324
00:18:07,716 --> 00:18:09,892
- Okay, so Brad and Edward
are willing to testify
325
00:18:09,935 --> 00:18:11,894
that Jason set up the camera?
- Well, in exchange
326
00:18:11,937 --> 00:18:13,635
for bumping them down
to misdemeanor harassment.
327
00:18:13,678 --> 00:18:15,289
- Can't we get them
on misdemeanor dissemination?
328
00:18:15,332 --> 00:18:17,682
- She's smart, she doesn't
want that on their records.
329
00:18:17,726 --> 00:18:19,728
- Okay, so this is our best
chance to get one of
330
00:18:19,771 --> 00:18:21,295
the three boys on a felony.
- Yeah, with their testimony,
331
00:18:21,338 --> 00:18:23,949
we can get Jason on unlawful
surveillance, dissemination,
332
00:18:23,993 --> 00:18:25,864
and toss in revenge porn
for the hat trick.
333
00:18:25,908 --> 00:18:29,781
- Which is gonna be tough to
prove because we have to show
334
00:18:29,825 --> 00:18:32,784
intent to harm, which,
even so, is just a misdemeanor.
335
00:18:32,828 --> 00:18:35,135
- So texting the video to a
friend is worse than posting it
336
00:18:35,178 --> 00:18:36,701
on a porn site?
- Tech lobbies,
337
00:18:36,745 --> 00:18:38,312
corporations,
civil libertarians--
338
00:18:38,355 --> 00:18:39,965
they got their fingerprints
all over the state's
339
00:18:40,009 --> 00:18:42,881
revenge porn bill.
It's basically toothless.
340
00:18:42,925 --> 00:18:46,581
- But Jason doesn't know that.
And he hasn't lawyered up yet.
341
00:18:46,624 --> 00:18:48,060
This might give us
some leverage.
342
00:18:48,104 --> 00:18:49,627
- Yeah.
- Yeah, well, what's Jason
343
00:18:49,671 --> 00:18:51,760
gonna give us that
we don't already have?
344
00:18:51,803 --> 00:18:53,849
- You never know.
345
00:18:55,372 --> 00:18:57,113
[dramatic musical sting]
346
00:18:57,157 --> 00:18:59,071
- Revenge on Delia?
Seriously?
347
00:18:59,115 --> 00:19:00,725
[laughs]
I get plenty.
348
00:19:00,769 --> 00:19:03,728
- Well, then why did you send
the video to a porn site?
349
00:19:03,772 --> 00:19:05,077
[laughs]
I don't know.
350
00:19:05,121 --> 00:19:06,992
I thought it was
a goof on Brad.
351
00:19:07,036 --> 00:19:09,647
- Well, Delia didn't
consent to being filmed.
352
00:19:09,691 --> 00:19:11,127
- Well, that's not
what Brad told me.
353
00:19:11,171 --> 00:19:12,911
How was I supposed to know?
- Because you're the one
354
00:19:12,955 --> 00:19:16,654
who installed the camera
in Studio X.
355
00:19:16,698 --> 00:19:18,743
- What are you talking about?
- Yeah, your dance buddies
356
00:19:18,787 --> 00:19:20,702
told us the whole thing
was your idea.
357
00:19:20,745 --> 00:19:24,140
- Okay, hang on, I--I don't
know who set up the camera,
358
00:19:24,184 --> 00:19:25,794
but it wasn't me.
- Well, that's not
359
00:19:25,837 --> 00:19:28,884
what they said.
And they're willing to testify.
360
00:19:28,927 --> 00:19:31,147
- Testify?
- Mm-hmm.
361
00:19:32,409 --> 00:19:35,847
- Like at a trial?
- Yeah, like at a trial.
362
00:19:35,891 --> 00:19:39,024
And with unlawful surveillance
and dissemination charges,
363
00:19:39,068 --> 00:19:41,723
you're looking at
felony jail time.
364
00:19:41,766 --> 00:19:44,943
- [scoffs]
This is total crap.
365
00:19:44,987 --> 00:19:46,206
I'm the fall guy.
366
00:19:46,249 --> 00:19:48,730
Everybody in the company
knew about it.
367
00:19:48,773 --> 00:19:51,863
Brad, Edward, Sascha.
- Sascha?
368
00:19:54,779 --> 00:19:57,217
Your choreographer?
369
00:19:57,260 --> 00:20:00,002
- Jason, if you know
more than you're saying,
370
00:20:00,045 --> 00:20:02,134
now would be your last chance
to help yourself.
371
00:20:02,178 --> 00:20:05,703
- And start with Sascha Thomas.
372
00:20:07,183 --> 00:20:09,707
- [sighs]
373
00:20:09,751 --> 00:20:11,143
We showed him
some stuff before.
374
00:20:11,187 --> 00:20:13,755
He never said boo.
375
00:20:13,798 --> 00:20:15,844
H-He would--
he would watch the videos
376
00:20:15,887 --> 00:20:17,846
like the girls
were auditioning for him.
377
00:20:17,889 --> 00:20:21,066
- And he never
told you to stop?
378
00:20:23,765 --> 00:20:25,810
- If he liked something he saw,
he'd ask a girl out,
379
00:20:25,854 --> 00:20:30,467
and if she said yes,
he'd make me delete it.
380
00:20:30,511 --> 00:20:34,863
[dark music]
381
00:20:34,906 --> 00:20:37,866
[dramatic orchestral
music playing]
382
00:20:37,909 --> 00:20:39,824
- There are no videos
of me and Jason.
383
00:20:39,868 --> 00:20:41,043
- Because Sascha
had it deleted?
384
00:20:41,086 --> 00:20:44,916
- You know about that?
Sascha's a friend.
385
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,179
- With benefits.
386
00:20:47,223 --> 00:20:49,181
- After Sascha saw the video,
he said he needed to make sure
387
00:20:49,225 --> 00:20:52,228
it didn't get out,
or my career would be over.
388
00:20:52,272 --> 00:20:54,186
- But not Jason's?
- [scoffs]
389
00:20:54,230 --> 00:20:56,885
You kidding?
There's a hundred other dancers
390
00:20:56,928 --> 00:21:00,454
who could be in my costume
and my solo tomorrow.
391
00:21:00,497 --> 00:21:02,064
Sascha said he'd make sure
that didn't happen.
392
00:21:02,107 --> 00:21:05,850
- And what did he
want in return?
393
00:21:05,894 --> 00:21:09,201
- For me to do to him what
I did to Jason in the video.
394
00:21:09,245 --> 00:21:12,030
- Tina, he pressured you.
395
00:21:12,074 --> 00:21:15,207
He extorted you.
396
00:21:15,251 --> 00:21:17,297
That's rape.
397
00:21:17,340 --> 00:21:20,822
- Like any of the other girls
wouldn't do it.
398
00:21:20,865 --> 00:21:24,304
Sascha saw all the videos.
399
00:21:24,347 --> 00:21:27,263
He chose me.
400
00:21:27,307 --> 00:21:29,874
[clapping]
401
00:21:29,918 --> 00:21:32,050
- Tina, that was your cue.
402
00:21:32,094 --> 00:21:35,315
- Tina--
- Sorry, my solo.
403
00:21:38,187 --> 00:21:41,016
- Not the time.
Ladies.
404
00:21:43,148 --> 00:21:44,802
- Well, she says
it wasn't rape.
405
00:21:44,846 --> 00:21:47,892
That's that.
- Well, from what I heard,
406
00:21:47,936 --> 00:21:51,026
rape culture is so much
a part of this company,
407
00:21:51,069 --> 00:21:54,029
they don't even
realize it anymore.
408
00:21:56,074 --> 00:21:58,294
[exhales]
409
00:22:02,690 --> 00:22:02,820
.
410
00:22:02,864 --> 00:22:05,257
- Tina said the sex
was consensual?
411
00:22:05,301 --> 00:22:06,476
- It wasn't, she just doesn't
wanna see it that way.
412
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,260
Sascha's her boss,
he gave her the choice
413
00:22:08,304 --> 00:22:10,437
of losing her job or getting
a solo, depending on whether
414
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,047
or not she was gonna
reenact that video with him.
415
00:22:12,090 --> 00:22:14,441
- It's forcible coercion,
rape three.
416
00:22:14,484 --> 00:22:16,399
- In theory, yes.
But his defense attorney's
417
00:22:16,443 --> 00:22:19,054
gonna say the relationship
was consensual.
418
00:22:19,097 --> 00:22:21,404
At worst, transactional,
one in which she was
419
00:22:21,448 --> 00:22:23,711
a willing part of.
- Sascha?
420
00:22:23,754 --> 00:22:25,495
From what the other dancers
said, this is happening
421
00:22:25,539 --> 00:22:27,541
all the time at the company.
- Then we need to try
422
00:22:27,584 --> 00:22:29,543
to establish a pattern.
Are there any other
423
00:22:29,586 --> 00:22:31,719
allegations against Sascha?
- No official complaints
424
00:22:31,762 --> 00:22:33,547
lodged with
the National HR department.
425
00:22:33,590 --> 00:22:35,723
- Yeah, the cone of silence
in ballet is real.
426
00:22:35,766 --> 00:22:37,681
I knew a few bunheads
at LaGuardia--
427
00:22:37,725 --> 00:22:41,337
rehearse nonstop, never spoke
out of turn, never ate--
428
00:22:41,381 --> 00:22:42,730
I mean, that kind of
conditioning sticks with you.
429
00:22:42,773 --> 00:22:44,732
- Listen, this isn't
just ballet.
430
00:22:44,775 --> 00:22:49,301
It's churches, news
organizations, movie sets.
431
00:22:49,345 --> 00:22:51,695
When your boss is a predator,
people are afraid.
432
00:22:51,739 --> 00:22:53,349
[cell phone buzzes]
433
00:22:53,393 --> 00:22:55,699
- Well, unless someone breaks
ranks, we're stalled.
434
00:22:55,743 --> 00:22:59,834
- [groans]
More bad news.
435
00:22:59,877 --> 00:23:02,750
Cybercrime said somebody ran
Delia's image through
436
00:23:02,793 --> 00:23:07,407
facial recognition.
Her identity has gone viral.
437
00:23:11,715 --> 00:23:14,326
Hey.
- Now anytime someone searches
438
00:23:14,370 --> 00:23:16,372
my name,
this video comes up.
439
00:23:16,416 --> 00:23:18,418
How long before
my parents see it?
440
00:23:18,461 --> 00:23:21,421
- Cybercrimes are tracking
down the sites one by one,
441
00:23:21,464 --> 00:23:24,598
enforcing the court order.
Delia, it's just--
442
00:23:24,641 --> 00:23:26,556
it's not easy.
- In the meantime,
443
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:27,949
we can help you
get the links removed
444
00:23:27,992 --> 00:23:30,560
from the search engines.
- No one knows who I am
445
00:23:30,604 --> 00:23:34,782
in the ballet world.
This is what I'm famous for?
446
00:23:34,825 --> 00:23:36,784
The National's gonna fire me.
- Delia.
447
00:23:36,827 --> 00:23:38,742
They're not gonna fire you.
- They're too busy covering
448
00:23:38,786 --> 00:23:41,136
their own asses.
449
00:23:41,179 --> 00:23:43,660
- I don't understand.
- So, it turns out
450
00:23:43,704 --> 00:23:46,533
that Sascha looked
at the videos.
451
00:23:46,576 --> 00:23:49,449
It's not just about
the boys anymore.
452
00:23:49,492 --> 00:23:52,147
- So he knew?
He didn't stop them?
453
00:23:52,190 --> 00:23:55,150
- Just the opposite.
- [exhales sharply]
454
00:23:55,193 --> 00:23:58,632
So there was a video of Tina?
That's why she slept with him?
455
00:23:58,675 --> 00:24:01,156
Everyone was wondering why
she finally got her solo.
456
00:24:01,199 --> 00:24:04,681
- Delia, do you know of any
other dancers that were
457
00:24:04,725 --> 00:24:07,467
involved with Sascha?
458
00:24:09,556 --> 00:24:13,821
- Wait, you guys are
going after Sascha now?
459
00:24:16,867 --> 00:24:19,566
- No way.
I'm out.
460
00:24:19,609 --> 00:24:21,437
- Hang on.
- No, I never should have
461
00:24:21,481 --> 00:24:25,485
come to you in the first place.
He's the choreographer.
462
00:24:25,528 --> 00:24:27,661
He gets to do
whatever he wants.
463
00:24:27,704 --> 00:24:29,837
- Not if you're willing
to help us.
464
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,839
- It's ballet!
465
00:24:31,882 --> 00:24:33,667
It's like my friend
Hudson says,
466
00:24:33,710 --> 00:24:36,931
"Straight male, can't fail.
Gay men, it depends.
467
00:24:36,974 --> 00:24:39,716
But girls in ballet?
468
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,632
Do what we say."
469
00:24:54,862 --> 00:24:56,646
- Five more minutes, Hudson.
470
00:24:59,780 --> 00:25:02,696
- How long you out?
- Rest of the season.
471
00:25:02,739 --> 00:25:05,873
Fifth surgery in ten years.
472
00:25:05,916 --> 00:25:08,876
But no one leaves ballet until
they're fired or crippled.
473
00:25:08,919 --> 00:25:11,443
[laughs softly]
474
00:25:11,487 --> 00:25:13,968
You here to talk to me
about Delia?
475
00:25:14,011 --> 00:25:16,231
Poor kid.
- You knew what was happening?
476
00:25:16,274 --> 00:25:19,669
- Honey, everybody knows.
- But no one says anything?
477
00:25:19,713 --> 00:25:23,978
- It's a straight male world.
We just dance in it.
478
00:25:24,021 --> 00:25:26,633
You dance?
479
00:25:26,676 --> 00:25:29,636
- Uh, hip-hop, modern.
480
00:25:29,679 --> 00:25:32,203
I was a little--
- Statuesque for ballet?
481
00:25:32,247 --> 00:25:34,771
[both laugh]
482
00:25:34,815 --> 00:25:38,906
Look, if you're here to talk
to me about male dancers
483
00:25:38,949 --> 00:25:41,212
videotaping girls,
I can't help you.
484
00:25:41,256 --> 00:25:43,911
- Actually, I'm here to ask
you about your choreographer.
485
00:25:43,954 --> 00:25:46,478
- Sascha? What's to know?
He's a pig.
486
00:25:46,522 --> 00:25:49,830
- Can you give me
any specifics?
487
00:25:49,873 --> 00:25:52,789
- You want me to be the
Norma Rae of the National?
488
00:25:52,833 --> 00:25:55,749
While I'm hanging on to my spot
in the company by a thread?
489
00:25:55,792 --> 00:25:58,534
Talk to me in a few years.
- So that's it?
490
00:25:58,578 --> 00:25:59,753
These girls are
just on their own?
491
00:25:59,796 --> 00:26:02,712
- They know the drill.
You want this life,
492
00:26:02,756 --> 00:26:04,801
you pay the price.
493
00:26:07,804 --> 00:26:10,720
- Hey, Kat, any luck?
- Struck out again.
494
00:26:10,764 --> 00:26:12,679
- So we're 0 for everyone?
- [sighs]
495
00:26:12,722 --> 00:26:14,942
- They've danced their whole
lives, sacrificed everything
496
00:26:14,985 --> 00:26:17,640
to get to the National.
They have too much to lose.
497
00:26:17,684 --> 00:26:18,772
Sorry.
498
00:26:18,815 --> 00:26:21,601
- Don't be.
Just need to find somebody
499
00:26:21,644 --> 00:26:23,864
who already lost.
500
00:26:25,866 --> 00:26:27,781
- That was a lifetime ago.
501
00:26:27,824 --> 00:26:30,697
- That was at the gala
last year.
502
00:26:30,740 --> 00:26:34,831
It's right after you got
picked to be the principal.
503
00:26:34,875 --> 00:26:38,661
- How did you get my name?
I quit the company a year ago.
504
00:26:38,705 --> 00:26:41,011
No one from the National
has even called.
505
00:26:41,055 --> 00:26:42,970
- We read the interview
in your hometown paper,
506
00:26:43,013 --> 00:26:45,015
"The Suffolk Times."
507
00:26:45,059 --> 00:26:46,930
How excited you were
to get your first lead,
508
00:26:46,974 --> 00:26:50,891
and you never actually danced.
509
00:26:50,934 --> 00:26:53,850
- You're with NYPD,
why do you care?
510
00:26:53,894 --> 00:26:56,984
- Well, we're looking
into a company-wide pattern
511
00:26:57,027 --> 00:27:00,074
of--of sexual abuse.
- You're actually investigating
512
00:27:00,117 --> 00:27:02,685
those pricks?
- We are.
513
00:27:02,729 --> 00:27:04,644
- How did you even
find out about this?
514
00:27:04,687 --> 00:27:07,951
Who came forward?
- Delia Kelly, initially.
515
00:27:07,995 --> 00:27:10,998
- Oh, no,
she was one of my students.
516
00:27:11,041 --> 00:27:13,696
Sascha raped her too?
517
00:27:13,740 --> 00:27:17,700
- Is Sascha the reason
that you left the company?
518
00:27:17,744 --> 00:27:20,572
- Well, he's the reason
I'm here.
519
00:27:24,838 --> 00:27:29,712
Jason made a sex tape of me.
520
00:27:29,756 --> 00:27:32,019
Sascha got a hold of it,
told me he could make it
521
00:27:32,062 --> 00:27:36,893
go away if I did to him
what I did to Jason.
522
00:27:39,766 --> 00:27:41,898
He wouldn't take no
for an answer.
523
00:27:41,942 --> 00:27:46,033
I just gave up
and let him do it.
524
00:27:46,076 --> 00:27:49,166
- Rose, I'm--
I'm so sorry.
525
00:27:50,777 --> 00:27:54,389
- Few days later,
he promoted me,
526
00:27:54,432 --> 00:27:59,916
told me that what happened
was just between he and I,
527
00:27:59,960 --> 00:28:02,919
and that he'd do it again
any time he wanted.
528
00:28:02,963 --> 00:28:06,923
- Did you tell anybody?
529
00:28:06,967 --> 00:28:10,057
I mean, any other dancers
or friends or family?
530
00:28:10,100 --> 00:28:11,754
- [scoffs]
531
00:28:11,798 --> 00:28:15,149
I told the one person
who I thought could help me--
532
00:28:15,192 --> 00:28:18,761
Alistair.
Alistair said he would help me,
533
00:28:18,805 --> 00:28:22,112
that I could do a lot better
than Sascha.
534
00:28:22,156 --> 00:28:26,073
- And what did he mean?
535
00:28:26,116 --> 00:28:29,424
- Every year
at the gala auction,
536
00:28:29,467 --> 00:28:33,907
dinner with the prima ballerina
is the top item.
537
00:28:33,950 --> 00:28:37,998
But what's expected
is not just dinner.
538
00:28:40,043 --> 00:28:43,917
Alistair said if I'd let him
auction me off,
539
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,789
he'd get Sascha to back down.
540
00:28:49,792 --> 00:28:53,840
Then he told me
if I said no,
541
00:28:53,883 --> 00:28:56,973
he'd leak Jason's sex tape,
542
00:28:57,017 --> 00:28:59,976
fire me immediately for cause,
543
00:29:00,020 --> 00:29:04,720
and blackball me
with every other company.
544
00:29:04,764 --> 00:29:09,116
- So that's why you left.
545
00:29:09,159 --> 00:29:13,773
- I didn't even dance
the premiere.
546
00:29:13,816 --> 00:29:16,688
I couldn't go on that night.
547
00:29:18,821 --> 00:29:22,956
And Alistair was right.
548
00:29:22,999 --> 00:29:25,915
I've never danced since.
549
00:29:38,101 --> 00:29:38,275
.
550
00:29:38,319 --> 00:29:40,756
- Okay, so the highest bids
at every gala auction are for
551
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,149
a "Dinner for Two
with a Ballerina."
552
00:29:42,192 --> 00:29:43,672
That doesn't prove these women
are being sex trafficked--
553
00:29:43,715 --> 00:29:45,587
- You said that you wanted
a pattern, and we have one.
554
00:29:45,630 --> 00:29:47,589
- Go ahead.
- So the male dancers
555
00:29:47,632 --> 00:29:51,114
are secretly recording the
women having sex with them.
556
00:29:51,158 --> 00:29:54,378
Sascha is using the tapes
to blackmail these women
557
00:29:54,422 --> 00:29:57,642
into reenacting
these videos, right?
558
00:29:57,686 --> 00:30:01,559
So if they consent or if they
just fail to fight him off,
559
00:30:01,603 --> 00:30:04,214
they get solos.
- Yeah, but none of these women
560
00:30:04,258 --> 00:30:07,304
are willing to testify.
- Rose Sullivan is.
561
00:30:07,348 --> 00:30:09,437
- She told us that Sascha
coerced her,
562
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,874
when she went to Alistair
with it, he doubled down,
563
00:30:11,918 --> 00:30:13,484
blackmailed her, and told
her if she didn't sleep
564
00:30:13,528 --> 00:30:16,183
with the highest bidder,
that she would lose her job.
565
00:30:16,226 --> 00:30:18,228
- We're looking
at sex trafficking here.
566
00:30:18,272 --> 00:30:21,362
- Okay, maybe--did she
actually go through with it?
567
00:30:21,405 --> 00:30:23,407
No?
[groans]
568
00:30:23,451 --> 00:30:25,148
So the board's gonna circle
the wagons,
569
00:30:25,192 --> 00:30:26,628
the dancers aren't talking,
570
00:30:26,671 --> 00:30:28,412
and these donors
sponsoring ballerinas--
571
00:30:28,456 --> 00:30:29,849
they certainly won't.
So at the end of the day,
572
00:30:29,892 --> 00:30:32,547
this is Rose's word against
Sascha and Alistair's.
573
00:30:32,590 --> 00:30:34,505
- All right, you got any ideas
or are you just gonna keep
574
00:30:34,549 --> 00:30:36,377
playing the "I'm the ADA,
I need more" card?
575
00:30:36,420 --> 00:30:37,465
- Rollins.
576
00:30:37,508 --> 00:30:38,553
- You know what would
be helpful?
577
00:30:38,596 --> 00:30:40,250
A confession.
How about that idea?
578
00:30:40,294 --> 00:30:41,556
- I don't see that happening.
579
00:30:41,599 --> 00:30:43,427
- Or we catch him in the act.
580
00:30:43,471 --> 00:30:46,604
This year's gala is tomorrow
night after the premiere.
581
00:30:46,648 --> 00:30:51,566
We put in a UC,
and we get Alistair on tape
582
00:30:51,609 --> 00:30:53,394
promising to deliver the goods.
- Huh.
583
00:30:53,437 --> 00:30:56,527
- How about Hasim Khaldun?
- Your transit-groper cop?
584
00:30:56,571 --> 00:31:00,531
- He could pass as an oil heir.
- Or a venture capitalist
585
00:31:00,575 --> 00:31:03,752
from Silicon Valley.
He's--He's a chameleon.
586

[dramatic musical sting]
587
00:31:08,278 --> 00:31:09,627
- You clean up nice.
588
00:31:09,671 --> 00:31:12,195
- I'd rather be in jeans
on the E train.
589
00:31:12,239 --> 00:31:13,936
- How was the ballet?
590
00:31:13,980 --> 00:31:15,938
- The last ballet I saw
was "The Nutcracker"
591
00:31:15,982 --> 00:31:18,288
when I was ten.
This was better.
592
00:31:18,332 --> 00:31:19,637
[chuckles]
- [sighs]
593
00:31:19,681 --> 00:31:22,249
So did Sascha walk you
through the night?
594
00:31:22,292 --> 00:31:24,338
- Briefly.
He's prepped Alistair that
595
00:31:24,381 --> 00:31:26,949
there's a potential "Diamond
Tiara" level tier donor
596
00:31:26,993 --> 00:31:28,516
waiting to meet him.
- Hey, Diamond Tiara.
597
00:31:28,559 --> 00:31:32,259
How much is that?
- If you have to ask...
598
00:31:32,302 --> 00:31:35,305
- Okay, here.
- What's this?
599
00:31:35,349 --> 00:31:37,655
- That's the key
to your hotel suite.
600
00:31:37,699 --> 00:31:40,528
Break a leg.
Or whatever it is they say.
601
00:31:45,011 --> 00:31:48,318
[dinner music playing]
602
00:31:48,362 --> 00:31:50,668
- Nick.
603
00:31:50,712 --> 00:31:52,757
Alistair, meet our newest
benefactor.
604
00:31:52,801 --> 00:31:54,977
- Nick Khan.
- Pleasure, Nick.
605
00:31:55,021 --> 00:31:56,718
- The Kendricks could not
stop singing his praises.
606
00:31:56,761 --> 00:31:58,981
- Oh, they took a leap of faith
in me and my company.
607
00:31:59,025 --> 00:32:00,548
I'm glad it worked out
for all of us.
608
00:32:00,591 --> 00:32:03,551
- You're in from Palo Alto?
- Yup, and not looking back.
609
00:32:03,594 --> 00:32:05,553

but just had a windfall

we sold to Google.

- I'm buying it.

I'll go kiss their rings.

we don't see many donors

618
00:32:26,052 --> 00:32:28,010
- And I have to admit,
up until tonight,
619
00:32:28,054 --> 00:32:30,404
I had not seen a lot of ballet.
[both laugh]
620
00:32:30,447 --> 00:32:32,623
- Did you like what you saw?
- Yeah, it was awesome.
621
00:32:32,667 --> 00:32:36,627
I'm assuming Sascha mentioned,
but I'm looking to establish
622
00:32:36,671 --> 00:32:38,586
a presence here in New York
as a benefactor
623
00:32:38,629 --> 00:32:41,458
in the performing arts world.
- He did.
624
00:32:41,502 --> 00:32:44,026
May I suggest,
instead of seeding start-ups,
625
00:32:44,070 --> 00:32:46,681
you make one quality
high-profile investment.
626
00:32:46,724 --> 00:32:49,814
- That's my plan.
I've spoken to some donors
627
00:32:49,858 --> 00:32:53,296
from past years,
and I'm willing to step up
628
00:32:53,340 --> 00:32:55,603
to the level they did to
receive the benefits they got.
629
00:32:55,646 --> 00:33:00,042
They mentioned sponsoring
one of the primas.
630
00:33:00,086 --> 00:33:03,263
- There is no more gratifying
entrée into our world.
631
00:33:05,395 --> 00:33:07,658
Ashley was mesmerizing tonight,
wasn't she?
632
00:33:07,702 --> 00:33:11,445
- Like I said, I don't know
a lot about ballet,
633
00:33:11,488 --> 00:33:13,360
but I couldn't take
my eyes off of her.
634
00:33:13,403 --> 00:33:14,622
- Private dinner for two
with the prima
635
00:33:14,665 --> 00:33:17,059
will be the final item
on the auction.
636
00:33:17,103 --> 00:33:19,540
- I've been told
it's more than dinner.
637
00:33:22,369 --> 00:33:24,762
- One of the great traits
of ballerinas--
638
00:33:24,806 --> 00:33:27,635

they follow.

- Can I, um, can I make
a preemptive bid?
641
00:33:32,683 --> 00:33:36,383
Would a six-figure
commitment take Ashley off
642
00:33:36,426 --> 00:33:39,516
the auction block?
643
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,780
- It would take Ashley
anywhere you'd like to go.
644
00:33:42,824 --> 00:33:48,525
- I have a suite reserved
at the Park Milano.
645

your credit card.
646

Bitcoin would work.
647

[chuckles]
That's not a problem.
648
00:33:56,490 --> 00:33:58,840
- That's an admission.
- It's more like an innuendo.
649
00:33:58,883 --> 00:34:01,582
Ashley still needs to show
she's willing to play for pay.
650
00:34:01,625 --> 00:34:03,845
- So he's a trafficker, and
we're going after the victim?
651
00:34:03,888 --> 00:34:06,717
- She has not been
cooperative so far, right?
652
00:34:06,761 --> 00:34:08,415
We need the leverage.

00:34:08,458 --> 00:34:10,504
I know you wish there
was a better way, but--

00:34:10,547 --> 00:34:13,333

with, um, all that
that entails.
665

this is just for one night.

- Ashley, we know
this wasn't your plan.
683
00:35:47,209 --> 00:35:50,125
Whose was it?
684
00:35:50,169 --> 00:35:53,259
- I can't say.
685
00:35:53,302 --> 00:35:56,914
- If we call Alistair Woodford
and tell him you were picked up
686
00:35:56,958 --> 00:36:00,614
in a police sting,
about to service a sponsor,
687
00:36:00,657 --> 00:36:03,182
you think he'll protect you?
688
00:36:03,225 --> 00:36:05,271
- He didn't give me any choice.
689
00:36:05,314 --> 00:36:07,925
- We need to know
how this works.
690
00:36:12,321 --> 00:36:16,847
- Every year,
at the gala,
691
00:36:16,891 --> 00:36:19,981
dinner with the prima
goes to the highest bidder.
692
00:36:20,024 --> 00:36:22,113
- Mm-hmm.
693
00:36:22,157 --> 00:36:26,857
- Everybody knows
it's more than just dinner.
694
00:36:29,338 --> 00:36:32,602
This year I was
on the auction block.
695
00:36:32,646 --> 00:36:34,865
- How did he get you
to agree to this?
696
00:36:36,954 --> 00:36:40,131
- Same way he got
everybody else.
697
00:36:40,175 --> 00:36:42,264
He had a video.
698
00:36:42,308 --> 00:36:48,096
Me, Brad, and Jason.
699
00:36:48,139 --> 00:36:53,667
- Does Sascha know about this?
- He gave Alistair the video.
700
00:36:53,710 --> 00:36:58,237
What did Alistair
say to you, exactly?
701
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:04,678
- He said I'd already worked
my way through the dancers
702
00:37:04,721 --> 00:37:09,683
and the choreographer
for my career,
703
00:37:09,726 --> 00:37:15,384
so compared to that,
this was a small ask.
704
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,085
- And if you refused?
705
00:37:23,262 --> 00:37:25,481
- The video
would be made public.
706
00:37:27,483 --> 00:37:31,270
He said, after that...
707
00:37:35,274 --> 00:37:40,496
The only way I'd be able
to make a living was in porn.
708
00:37:44,457 --> 00:37:45,719
[switch flips]
709
00:37:45,762 --> 00:37:47,024
- That's enough
for an arrest warrant.
710
00:37:47,068 --> 00:37:50,071
- Better idea.
We pick him up now.
711
00:37:52,247 --> 00:37:54,205
- See you Monday.
712
00:37:55,337 --> 00:37:56,469
- Hey.
713
00:37:59,123 --> 00:38:02,301
- Alistair Woodford,
Sascha Thomas.
714
00:38:02,344 --> 00:38:04,738
- Captain Benson,
what is this?
715
00:38:04,781 --> 00:38:07,131
- Give it a second,
it'll come to you.
716
00:38:07,175 --> 00:38:08,959
- You're making
a major mistake.
717
00:38:09,003 --> 00:38:11,048
- Not my first,
won't be my last.
718
00:38:11,092 --> 00:38:13,224
[handcuffs clinking]
719
00:38:14,225 --> 00:38:16,053
- You vouched for him.
- Don't worry.
720
00:38:16,097 --> 00:38:18,055
He's under arrest too.
- Whatever I did,
721
00:38:18,099 --> 00:38:20,406
I did to subsidize art.
That man's your rapist!
722
00:38:20,449 --> 00:38:23,713
- So you knew?
And you used it as leverage.
723
00:38:23,757 --> 00:38:25,367
That makes you
a sex trafficker.
724
00:38:25,411 --> 00:38:27,326
Get him out of here.
725
00:38:30,154 --> 00:38:33,506
- So Alistair and Sascha
took a deal?
726
00:38:33,549 --> 00:38:36,335
- Felonies, both of them.
They'll do prison time.
727
00:38:39,338 --> 00:38:43,733
- What about Jason?
- He'll do a few months,
728
00:38:43,777 --> 00:38:48,999
and we're still working
to get the video taken down.
729
00:38:49,043 --> 00:38:50,479
- Uh-huh.
730
00:38:53,177 --> 00:38:55,005
What happens to the National?
731
00:38:55,049 --> 00:38:59,358
- Well, Brad and Edward
were fired, although...
732
00:38:59,401 --> 00:39:04,014
they're filing a suit
for wrongful termination.
733
00:39:04,058 --> 00:39:07,540
- Of course they are.
Boys in ballet.
734
00:39:07,583 --> 00:39:09,759
From day one,
they get all the breaks.
735
00:39:09,803 --> 00:39:11,413
I bet they'll
get their jobs back.
736
00:39:11,457 --> 00:39:15,374
- [sighs]
Maybe, but maybe not.
737
00:39:15,417 --> 00:39:18,812
You heard that the new board
hired an all-female
738
00:39:18,855 --> 00:39:20,770
artistic team?
739
00:39:20,814 --> 00:39:24,774
- Yeah, good for them.
740
00:39:24,818 --> 00:39:30,389
- Hey, have you, uh, do you
ever consider going back?
741
00:39:34,218 --> 00:39:37,221
- I spent my whole life
in that world.
742
00:39:39,180 --> 00:39:43,140
To leap high,
743
00:39:43,184 --> 00:39:46,492
to spin in midair,
744
00:39:46,535 --> 00:39:49,538
to feel the rush
of an ovation.
745
00:39:52,149 --> 00:39:55,196
It's the only dream
I ever had.
746
00:39:58,895 --> 00:40:04,510
But now,
I imagine dancing onstage...
747
00:40:07,208 --> 00:40:08,862
And the only thing
I can think about
748
00:40:08,905 --> 00:40:13,257
is everyone in the audience
leering at me on the internet.
749
00:40:19,568 --> 00:40:26,270
And that--
that's never going away, is it?
750
00:40:34,888 --> 00:40:38,108
[glasses clinking]
751
00:40:43,244 --> 00:40:45,376
- [exhales softly]
752
00:41:25,329 --> 00:41:28,332
[wolf howls]
