No, we just chillin'.
Why would you say that?
You literally just told me that you loved me.
You grab another slushie, I go get more tickets,
and then get super drunk and ride the Ferris wheel.
Deal.
BECKY: I'm supposed to meet my boyfriend's family for the first time.
I sent him a few pics from the school bathroom

RUE: Christopher McKay's father demanded excellence.
Although she feeds me bread of bitterness,

stealing my breath of life, I will confess.
I love this cultured hell that tests my youth.

giving me strength erect against her hate,

- malice, not a word of jeer... - (VOMITS)

- Because he... - Because he's trying
to get a rise out of you.
Trying to make you upset, lose focus.
That's his game. That's the world's game.
They want to push on you,
poke on you, see exactly how much you can take.
And how much you can take is what will ultimately define you.
Because the measure of a man is in how he reacts.
How am I supposed to react?
By taking everything you feel,
all your frustrations, your anger, your rage,
you bottle it up,
you take your position, and when that snap comes,
- you let it explode. - (WHISTLE TRILLS)

(CROWD CHEERING)
RUE: The truth was, McKay was shy,
but winning gave him confidence.
And that confidence was the result of his dad's beliefs.
Routine. Routine. Routine.
He was recruited to play division one football
at the state college, 30 miles from his house.
(APPLAUSE)
He began to imagine a life in the NFL.
- This is it, son. - (BOTH LAUGHING)
- This is it. - Yeah.
RUE: He knew he was smarter than most football players,
and that he would take the money he earned and invest it wisely.
He would use it to build an empire.
- (PLAYERS GRUNTING) - And then he got to college,
and he realized that everyone on the team was as good as him,
- if not better. - (WHISTLE TRILLS)
He spent all of preseason on the bench.
When the offensive coordinator would break down plays,
he'd find his mind wandering, trying to do the math
on the odds of him going pro.
If there were 129 D1 teams,
and 85 players per team,
that made him one of 10,965.
And he realized...
OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR: 17-yard game...
RUE: ...he didn't stand a chance of going pro.
But at the same time, he started dating Cassie.
You are literally the most beautiful girl I've ever seen.
RUE: And as stupid as it sounds, he fell in love with her.
That's probably what was getting in the way.
Cassie is all he ever thought about,
and those fucking photos and that fucking video.
He just couldn't understand
how she could have so little respect for herself.
But the thing that really pissed him off
was when she'd play dumb about it, like at the carnival.
What have I done, McKay?
It's not like it's that big of a fucking secret, Cassie.
RUE: I mean, even her mother said it.
I tell you, it's not easy to hold her attention.
Like mother, like daughter.
RUE: But he also liked the way she made him feel.
And he liked the way she dressed, to a certain point.
But it's not like he would say anything, he wasn't that possessive.
And he liked how she'd walk in the room,
- and every guy would turn their head. - Hey.
RUE: That's what made it fun.
Hey.
I've seen you around, but I don't think we've met.
I'm Daniel.
Nice to meet you, Daniel. I'm Cassie.

(WHISPERS): Fuck. Oh, God.
- Sit down, Tyler. - Please, man.
Please don't fucking hurt me again. Please.
Tyler, I'm not gonna hurt you.
You're in a fucking neck brace. Just sit down.
I want to have a mature conversation. Come on.
- About what? - Your options. It's okay. Sit.
- What are my options? - Not good, man.
- But one's better than the other. - Oh, fuck.
Please, dude.
I-I was in the hospital for, like, seven days. I-I...
My retina detached, and I can't... I can't see,
and, and... (SIGHS) I get migraines constantly,
and I can barely breathe through my nose...
Tyler. Tyler.
I don't care.
I need you to take a breath. Relax.
I need you to go in your room and put some clothes on.
Then I need you to get in your car and drive down
to the East Highland police station.
You're gonna walk up to the receptionist,
and you're gonna tell her that you'd like to confess to a crime.
What crime?
The second night of the carnival,
you ran into Madeline Perez,
who's a junior at East Highland High.
You'd been stalking her since she turned down your sexual advances.
You confronted her and asked her why she'd been ignoring you.
She said it was because she had a boyfriend.
You became enraged, and you choked her.
What's my other option?
Well, I mean, go about your day.
But, at some point,
Madeline Perez is gonna go down to the East Highland police station.
(SNIFFS) She's gonna walk up to the receptionist.
She's gonna say that she'd like to report a crime.
- What crime? - On the weekend before school started,
she went to a party. She got intoxicated.
She was raped in the swimming pool
by a 22-year-old college student named Tyler Clarkson.
Who, on the second night of the carnival
assaulted and raped her again.
You cannot prove that I was at the carnival.
- You sure about that? - Yeah.
- 'Cause I was here. - Here.
Alone?
I'm not gonna confess to a crime that I didn't do.
Then we'll make you confess to one that you did.
Either way, it doesn't fucking matter.
♪ ♪
- Can I help you? - Yes.
I'm here to confess to a crime.
DETECTIVE RILEY: Do you recognize that man?
MADDY: Yes.
He's the guy who assaulted me the night of the carnival.
Something about this whole thing just...
I don't know. It just feels odd.
Riley, we got a girl in 202 who says she witnessed the Perez assault.
JULES: I was walking to the bathroom.
And, uh... I saw this guy yelling at this girl,
behind one of the trailers.
And, I kind of, like, stopped and looked for a second.
And then he grabbed her by the neck and kind of, like...
pushed her up against the side of the trailer.
And then I immediately recognized that it was Maddy.
And I knew... I knew the guy's
face from somewhere. I just...
couldn't, like, place it.
Uh, and then...
Last night, I realized where I knew him from.
And, uh, he's the guy that
hooked up with Maddy the night of McKay's party.
DETECTIVE RILEY: Did anyone coerce you
into making this statement today?
No.
DETECTIVE RILEY: And you realize that filing a false police report
or making false statements to the police
impeding a criminal investigation is a very serious crime,
punishable by up to seven years in prison.
I do.
DETECTIVE RILEY: I'll ask you one more time.
Are you telling us the truth?
Happy Halloween.
