So this led you
to conclude that

TOM:
Well, you've got
quite a good memory.
1407
01:42:22,844 --> 01:42:23,945
We all talked about it.
1408
01:42:23,978 --> 01:42:25,046
We'd never seen her
1409
01:42:25,079 --> 01:42:26,480
all cleaned up like that.
1410
01:42:26,514 --> 01:42:28,650
Hair combed, makeup.
1411
01:42:28,683 --> 01:42:33,054
TOM:
Just to be clear,
on the morning of October 29,
1412
01:42:33,087 --> 01:42:36,289
you and several others
saw Miss Clark
1413
01:42:36,323 --> 01:42:39,861
board the 9 a.m. bus
and leave Barkley Cove.
1414
01:42:39,894 --> 01:42:41,896
Yes, that's right.
Thank you, Miss Price.
1415
01:42:41,929 --> 01:42:43,631
No further questions,
Your Honor.
1416
01:42:43,665 --> 01:42:46,400
CHASTAIN:
Miss Price,
is the Piggly Wiggly open
1417
01:42:46,433 --> 01:42:48,201
at 1:30 in the morning?
1418
01:42:48,235 --> 01:42:49,904
No, sir.
1419
01:42:51,039 --> 01:42:53,206
Well, the reason I ask is,
1420
01:42:53,240 --> 01:42:54,909
you couldn't have seen
who got off
1421
01:42:54,942 --> 01:42:56,911
the night bus
from Greenville,
1422
01:42:56,944 --> 01:42:59,714
nor could you have seen
who got on the 2:30 a.m. bus
1423
01:42:59,747 --> 01:43:03,350
from Barkley Cove
back to Greenville, could you?
1424
01:43:03,383 --> 01:43:05,086
Well, no. Of course not.
1425
01:43:05,119 --> 01:43:07,689
So after you saw Miss Clark
1426
01:43:07,722 --> 01:43:10,124
board that morning bus
to Greenville...
1427
01:43:11,759 --> 01:43:14,562
she could have returned
to Barkley Cove that night
1428
01:43:14,595 --> 01:43:16,698
and been back in Greenville
for breakfast,
1429
01:43:16,731 --> 01:43:19,266
all without you
taking notice.
1430
01:43:19,299 --> 01:43:21,002
My name is Robert Foster.
1431
01:43:21,035 --> 01:43:24,172
I'm a senior editor at Harrison
Morris Publishing Company
1432
01:43:24,204 --> 01:43:27,075
in Boston, Massachusetts.
TOM: Mr. Foster, you sat down
1433
01:43:27,108 --> 01:43:29,711
for dinner with Miss Clark
at 7 p.m.
1434
01:43:29,744 --> 01:43:31,846
on the night of October 29.
1435
01:43:31,879 --> 01:43:33,213
Correct?
Yes.
1436
01:43:33,246 --> 01:43:35,282
What was
your first impression of her?
1437
01:43:35,315 --> 01:43:36,684
[CHUCKLES]
1438
01:43:36,718 --> 01:43:38,052
My first impression was
1439
01:43:38,086 --> 01:43:43,057
that she was very shy,
very gentle, very smart.
1440
01:43:43,091 --> 01:43:45,193
I knew that she was
something of a recluse,
1441
01:43:45,225 --> 01:43:48,129
but I also knew that
she was a gifted naturalist.
1442
01:43:48,162 --> 01:43:49,764
TOM:
How long did that dinner go on?
1443
01:43:49,797 --> 01:43:51,199
ROBERT:
At least a few hours.
1444
01:43:51,231 --> 01:43:52,967
KYA:
Some female insects
do eat their mates.
1445
01:43:53,000 --> 01:43:56,269
Fireflies, in fact, have
two different light signals.
1446
01:43:56,303 --> 01:43:57,471
One for mating,
1447
01:43:57,504 --> 01:43:58,806
and one to attract a male
1448
01:43:58,840 --> 01:44:00,575
in order to make him
her next meal.
1449
01:44:00,608 --> 01:44:02,309
MAN: So she eats him?
WOMAN: How gruesome.
1450
01:44:02,342 --> 01:44:03,477
Oh, dear.
1451
01:44:03,511 --> 01:44:05,278
I must spend less time
with insects.
1452
01:44:05,312 --> 01:44:07,582
It's quite amoral.
WOMAN: Amoral, indeed.
1453
01:44:07,615 --> 01:44:10,017
I don't know if there is
a dark side to nature.
1454
01:44:11,686 --> 01:44:14,555
Just inventive ways
to endure.

with Miss Clark

the following morning,
October 30th,

01:44:20,628 --> 01:44:24,632
was there anything unusual about
her appearance or her demeanor?
1459
01:44:24,665 --> 01:44:26,433
Not at all.
1460
01:44:26,466 --> 01:44:28,236
TOM:
No further questions,
Your Honor.
1461
01:44:28,268 --> 01:44:31,773
Mr. Foster, did Miss Clark
stay at the same hotel
1462
01:44:31,806 --> 01:44:33,440
as you and your colleagues?
1463
01:44:33,473 --> 01:44:36,144
No. She preferred
a smaller hotel.
1464
01:44:36,177 --> 01:44:38,780
The, um, Mountain something.
1465
01:44:38,813 --> 01:44:42,116
Could you look at this map
of Greenville for me, please?
1466
01:44:42,150 --> 01:44:44,852
I think you'll see The Piedmont,
1467
01:44:44,886 --> 01:44:46,788
where you
and your colleagues stayed,
1468
01:44:46,821 --> 01:44:50,858
and then The Three Mountains
Hotel, where Miss Clark stayed.
1469
01:44:50,892 --> 01:44:54,361
Could you tell me which one
is closest to the bus station?
1470
01:44:56,063 --> 01:44:58,533
The Three Mountains Hotel
is closer.
1471
01:44:58,566 --> 01:45:02,270
In fact, The Three Mountains
is the closest hotel
1472
01:45:02,302 --> 01:45:05,673
to the Greenville bus station.
Is that correct?
1473
01:45:05,706 --> 01:45:08,543
Looks that way.
No further questions.
1474
01:45:08,576 --> 01:45:11,311
TOM:
I don't think a good lawyer
1475
01:45:11,344 --> 01:45:13,047
ever puts their client
on the stand,
1476
01:45:13,080 --> 01:45:15,348
but this might help you.
1477
01:45:15,382 --> 01:45:19,587
For the jury to be able
to hear from you, directly.
1478
01:45:20,922 --> 01:45:23,925
For them to be able
to see you...

person you truly are.
1480
01:45:28,029 --> 01:45:29,831
They're never gonna see me
like that.

Listen. I know you have
a world of reasons

01:45:32,233 --> 01:45:34,735
to hate these people--
No, I never hated them.
1483
01:45:34,769 --> 01:45:36,237
They hated me.
1484
01:45:37,605 --> 01:45:41,341
They laughed at me.
They left me.
1485
01:45:41,374 --> 01:45:43,811
They harassed me.
They attacked me.

01:45:43,845 --> 01:45:47,315
You want me to beg for my life?
1487

I don't have it in me.

01:45:49,183 --> 01:45:50,718
I won't.

01:45:52,553 --> 01:45:55,189
I will not offer myself up.

01:45:55,223 --> 01:45:56,891
They can make their decision.
1491
01:45:59,227 --> 01:46:03,097
But they're not deciding
anything about me.
1492
01:46:04,866 --> 01:46:06,200
It's them.
1493
01:46:07,802 --> 01:46:09,570
They're judging themselves.

01:46:12,039 --> 01:46:13,307
All right, then.

who could not accept that
he had returned to the fold.
1503
01:46:47,174 --> 01:46:51,712
A witness saw Miss Clark
and Chase in the marsh.
1504
01:46:51,746 --> 01:46:55,049
Heard her say the words
"I'll kill you."

That she was part wolf.

A missing link
between ape and man.

glowed in the dark.

Well, here she is.

The reality is that
she was an abandoned child.

there in the marsh on her own,

Well, I'm ashamed to say

01:48:44,625 --> 01:48:47,094
that we labeled her
and rejected her
1533
01:48:47,128 --> 01:48:50,831
because we thought
she was different.

But you must base your judgment
1538
01:49:02,910 --> 01:49:06,047
on the facts presented
in this courtroom,
1539
01:49:06,080 --> 01:49:09,750
and not on the rumors
and feelings

01:49:12,253 --> 01:49:15,222
Miss Clark has a solid alibi.
1542
01:49:15,256 --> 01:49:18,626
She was in Greenville
the night Chase Andrews died.
1543
01:49:18,659 --> 01:49:23,731
And what facts,
exactly, stand against her?
1544
01:49:25,332 --> 01:49:27,201
The State has not proven
1545
01:49:27,234 --> 01:49:30,371
that this incident
was indeed a murder,
1546
01:49:30,404 --> 01:49:34,375
and not just some
tragic accident.
1547
01:49:34,408 --> 01:49:36,610
The State wants you to believe
1548
01:49:36,644 --> 01:49:38,245
that at 11:30 at night,
1549
01:49:38,279 --> 01:49:40,881
without a single witness
seeing her,
1550
01:49:40,915 --> 01:49:44,318
she caught the last bus from
Greenville to Barkley Cove,
1551
01:49:44,351 --> 01:49:47,054
and rode that bus disguised,
1552
01:49:47,088 --> 01:49:49,256
since neither of
the bus drivers that night
1553
01:49:49,290 --> 01:49:51,492
could identify her
as a passenger,
1554
01:49:51,526 --> 01:49:53,661
all the way back
to Barkley Cove.
1555
01:49:53,694 --> 01:49:57,532
And then,
in less than an hour...
1556
01:49:59,266 --> 01:50:02,069
she tracks down Chase Andrews
in the middle of the night,
1557
01:50:02,103 --> 01:50:04,638
lures him to the tower,
murders him,
1558
01:50:04,672 --> 01:50:06,807
wipes away
all physical evidence,
1559
01:50:06,841 --> 01:50:11,779
and somehow catches the 2:30
a.m. bus back to Greenville.
1560
01:50:11,812 --> 01:50:14,348
Again, without
a single witness seeing her.
1561
01:50:14,381 --> 01:50:16,951
And after doing all that,

01:50:18,652 --> 01:50:22,591
she meets with her publishers
the next morning, unruffled.

01:50:22,623 --> 01:50:24,925
Now, these are not facts.
1564
01:50:24,959 --> 01:50:27,828
These are just more
of the rumors

her entire life.
