I'm the uncle of Anna Nicole Smith

She was always, uh,
going out in the front yard

And she always loved the attention.

You know, she... she craved attention.
83
00:05:04,679 --> 00:05:07,932

was Vickie Lynn,

I wouldn't.

I said, "I don't do that kinda stuff."

And she enjoyed it.
She loved being the center of attention.

We would go to the mall,
and I swear to you,

there would be 50 men and boys
walking behind us.

I said, "I know. I see 'em. Come on."

Vickie was always beautiful.

She, uh, asked Billy one day
to give her a ride home,

and he said, "No."

173
00:11:00,409 --> 00:11:01,744
That was a bad day, you know?
174
00:11:01,827 --> 00:11:04,580
There were days
we made a lot of money in there. I mean...
175
00:11:05,539 --> 00:11:06,374
Well, we made...
176
00:11:06,457 --> 00:11:09,669
[laughs] We made lot of money
in there sometimes, so...
177
00:11:09,752 --> 00:11:11,754
[club music playing]
178
00:11:16,926 --> 00:11:18,302
[whistling]
179
00:11:20,137 --> 00:11:22,598
[Missy] One day, we're...
we're just doing our normal thing,
180
00:11:22,682 --> 00:11:26,602
and, uh,
in walks this gorgeous, gorgeous girl.
181
00:11:33,025 --> 00:11:34,527
And everybody was looking at her.
182
00:11:34,610 --> 00:11:37,530
You know, I hear a couple of the girls
like, "My God, she's good-looking."
183
00:11:37,571 --> 00:11:40,574
I know they're gonna eat her alive,
so I volunteered to walk over,
184
00:11:40,658 --> 00:11:42,993
and talk to her,
and find out what her story is.
185
00:11:43,077 --> 00:11:45,162
And she appeared to be very naive.
186
00:11:46,789 --> 00:11:50,000
She said, "Oh my God. What... What is that?"
187
00:11:50,084 --> 00:11:51,210
[woman laughing]
188
00:11:51,293 --> 00:11:53,796
She was shaking. She wasn't sure
if she could do that or not.
189
00:11:55,756 --> 00:11:58,008
She did her audition,
and of course, he hired her.
190
00:11:58,092 --> 00:12:00,094
She couldn't dance. She looked like a...
191
00:12:00,177 --> 00:12:02,805
She reminded me of an emu trying to fly.
192
00:12:02,888 --> 00:12:04,098
It wasn't gonna happen.
193
00:12:04,181 --> 00:12:06,183
[ominous music playing]
194
00:12:06,976 --> 00:12:09,186
[Missy] You felt maternal towards her,
almost.
195
00:12:09,270 --> 00:12:11,564
You just wanted
to take her under your wing
196
00:12:11,647 --> 00:12:12,940
and protect her from everything.
197
00:12:14,024 --> 00:12:15,824
She did tell me
that she didn't like her name.
198
00:12:15,860 --> 00:12:17,278
She said she didn't like Vickie.
199
00:12:17,361 --> 00:12:18,641
She said, "I like Nicky better."
200
00:12:18,696 --> 00:12:22,116
So I said, "Okay. If that's what you wanna
be called, then I'll call you Nicky."
201
00:12:23,826 --> 00:12:27,830
But no one needed to give her any pointers
on how to attract a man.
202
00:12:27,913 --> 00:12:29,039
She knew what she was doing.
203
00:12:30,583 --> 00:12:33,085
And she doesn't need a lot of help
manipulating anybody.
204
00:12:33,169 --> 00:12:34,712
She's actually better at it than me.
205
00:12:35,546 --> 00:12:37,965
Within a week or two, she was like a pro.
206
00:12:38,048 --> 00:12:39,300
[inaudible]
207
00:12:40,551 --> 00:12:43,012
[Missy] She had, uh,
an incredible work ethic.
208
00:12:44,221 --> 00:12:47,183
Her ultimate goal was to...
to save up money,
209
00:12:47,266 --> 00:12:51,103
and, you know, get the things she needed,
and make a home for Daniel.
210
00:12:54,815 --> 00:12:57,610
Right off the bat,
she was making a lot of money.
211
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,362
[crowd cheering]
212
00:13:02,031 --> 00:13:04,492
[Missy] It... It gives you
a sense of empowerment.
213
00:13:05,743 --> 00:13:07,286
And for a lot of girls
214
00:13:07,369 --> 00:13:11,373
that come from the sort of background
we came from, it's a big deal.
215
00:13:16,337 --> 00:13:18,339
[gentle music playing]
216
00:13:25,763 --> 00:13:29,600
[Missy] One day, we sat down,
and... and I told Nicky my life story.
217
00:13:31,185 --> 00:13:33,813
I was raised in a small town,
218
00:13:33,896 --> 00:13:36,565
and I had an abusive childhood.
219
00:13:39,819 --> 00:13:43,405
My stepfathers had... had raped me
and... and beaten me,
220
00:13:43,489 --> 00:13:46,700
and so I ran away from home when I was 13.
221
00:13:50,996 --> 00:13:52,540
And I didn't trust people.
222
00:13:54,041 --> 00:13:55,501
She changed that for me.
223
00:13:56,168 --> 00:13:58,671
I did trust her.
I... I learned to trust her.
224
00:14:01,549 --> 00:14:03,801
She told me about Virgie, her mother.
225
00:14:04,802 --> 00:14:07,638
She was in law enforcement,
and she was kind of a tyrant.
226
00:14:07,721 --> 00:14:11,809
Well, she would handcuff her to the bed
for days and just beat her mercilessly.
227
00:14:13,561 --> 00:14:15,396
[crowd clamoring]
228
00:14:15,479 --> 00:14:18,899
[Missy] And I'm buying
a lot of what she's telling me.
229
00:14:20,109 --> 00:14:22,695
You know, I don't have any reason
to disbelieve her.
230
00:14:30,035 --> 00:14:31,662
[camera shutters clicking]
231
00:14:31,745 --> 00:14:33,372
[music fades]
232
00:14:36,709 --> 00:14:40,421
[Missy] She told me all the time
that she was gonna be a famous model.
233
00:14:40,504 --> 00:14:42,423
[dramatic music playing]
234
00:14:42,506 --> 00:14:45,593
I would be like, "Yeah, yeah,
of course you are." 'Cause you know?
235
00:14:45,676 --> 00:14:47,261
"Of course you will, dear."
236
00:14:47,344 --> 00:14:48,762
But, um... [chuckling]
237
00:14:48,846 --> 00:14:51,473
...she, uh, she was convinced
238
00:14:51,557 --> 00:14:54,059
that the only thing holding her back
was her boobs.
239
00:14:59,315 --> 00:15:02,151
So she set out on a mission
to get a boob job.
240
00:15:03,652 --> 00:15:04,862
God, it... it was painful.
241
00:15:04,945 --> 00:15:07,299
You know, it was horrible
to watch somebody go through that,
242
00:15:07,323 --> 00:15:08,908
because it... it hurts like hell.
243
00:15:09,700 --> 00:15:12,578
And that is where she started
on her, uh, pain pills.
244
00:15:12,661 --> 00:15:19,043
Valium, Xanax, Lortabs, uh,
Vicodin, and, um, the Klonopin.
245
00:15:22,463 --> 00:15:24,798
From that time on,
she was always taking them.
246
00:15:25,507 --> 00:15:28,093
There was nothing she could do
to stop it, you know.
247
00:15:32,473 --> 00:15:35,309
Being with her was...
was like a roller-coaster ride.
248
00:15:35,392 --> 00:15:37,895
It never got boring, I'll say that to you.
249
00:15:40,397 --> 00:15:42,358
We got in a lot of trouble together,
and, um...
250
00:15:42,441 --> 00:15:45,569
That's what I always say. It's like Nicky
had gas, and I had matches, you know?
251
00:15:45,653 --> 00:15:48,238
And when we got together,
it was combustible. Shit happened.
252
00:15:50,032 --> 00:15:51,700
I... I was in love with her.
253
00:15:53,243 --> 00:15:54,495
She was fun.
254
00:15:55,746 --> 00:16:00,000
She had a big heart, and she was kind.
You know, she really was kind.
255
00:16:01,126 --> 00:16:05,589
The whole thing, the... the whole friendship
with her in those early days
256
00:16:05,673 --> 00:16:07,299
was as good as it gets.
257
00:16:15,307 --> 00:16:18,310
I would like to meet a man,
but where do you meet them?
258
00:16:18,894 --> 00:16:21,021
Um, they have to love my son.
259
00:16:21,105 --> 00:16:23,732
They have to be nice, sweet.
I love a funny man.
260
00:16:24,316 --> 00:16:27,820
They have to be very, uh, sensual.
261
00:16:27,903 --> 00:16:29,446
I mean, I just love sensual.
262
00:16:29,530 --> 00:16:34,576
I like people to hold me, and cuddle me,
and watch movies with me,
263
00:16:34,660 --> 00:16:37,788
and just, you know, be very sweet and...
264
00:16:38,872 --> 00:16:41,912
[interviewer] But you're gonna go on
with your career even if you're married?
265
00:16:42,376 --> 00:16:44,128
- Yes, I will.
- [interviewer] Mm-hmm.
266
00:16:45,254 --> 00:16:48,507
And you will not, uh,
stop until you have fulfilled your dreams?
267
00:16:48,590 --> 00:16:49,633
Right.
268
00:16:49,717 --> 00:16:51,969
[pensive music playing]
269
00:16:59,893 --> 00:17:04,815
[Missy] Nicky started to tell me about,
uh, this... this man that she had met.
270
00:17:05,899 --> 00:17:07,860
She met him when she was dancing,
271
00:17:07,943 --> 00:17:12,614
and his wife had died, and he was
very, very distraught and... and depressed.
272
00:17:13,198 --> 00:17:15,909
She said that then he's starting
to fall in love with her,
273
00:17:15,993 --> 00:17:18,954
and he wants to marry her,
and he's a billionaire
274
00:17:19,038 --> 00:17:20,289
with a "b" not an "m."
275
00:17:20,372 --> 00:17:21,582
A "b," a billionaire.
276
00:17:23,208 --> 00:17:25,836
She told me his name
was J. Howard Marshall.
277
00:17:27,087 --> 00:17:28,589
[Anna] I love you, sweetheart.
278
00:17:29,089 --> 00:17:29,965
[Marshall] I love you.
279
00:17:30,049 --> 00:17:33,177
You're the light of my life,
now and always.
280
00:17:33,260 --> 00:17:36,346
[Anna] You're the light of my life,
now and always too, honey bunny.
281
00:17:36,430 --> 00:17:37,750
[Marshall] All right, sweetheart.
282
00:17:37,806 --> 00:17:39,016
[Anna] Do you miss rosebuds?
283
00:17:39,099 --> 00:17:39,933
[Marshall] What?
284
00:17:40,017 --> 00:17:41,268
Do you miss rosebuds?
285
00:17:41,351 --> 00:17:42,519
[Marshall] Yes, I do.
286
00:17:42,603 --> 00:17:44,104
[Anna] You wanna see rosebuds?
287
00:17:44,646 --> 00:17:45,689
[Marshall] I'd like to.
288
00:17:45,773 --> 00:17:47,813
[Anna] You want me to come over
and spend the night?
289
00:17:47,858 --> 00:17:48,692
[Marshall] Yep.
290
00:17:48,776 --> 00:17:49,777
[Anna] Okay, honey.
291
00:17:51,195 --> 00:17:52,905
[Missy] He bought her a car,
292
00:17:53,822 --> 00:17:57,785
and... and he bought her a home
so that she could be stable.
293
00:17:58,994 --> 00:18:01,038
And she quit working at topless clubs.
294
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:07,044
It's like having a genie or something
just grant your every wish.
295
00:18:08,253 --> 00:18:10,631
He asked her to marry him several times.
296
00:18:10,714 --> 00:18:12,216
And she would tell him, "No."
297
00:18:12,299 --> 00:18:15,511
"I'm... I'm not gonna marry you
until I have a name for myself,
298
00:18:16,512 --> 00:18:18,972
because I don't want
people calling me a gold digger."
299
00:18:20,849 --> 00:18:22,476
And he said, "Okay, very well."
300
00:18:23,811 --> 00:18:25,229
[music fades]
301
00:18:27,815 --> 00:18:29,817
[contemplative music playing]
302
00:18:36,782 --> 00:18:41,370
[woman] I was the West Coast photo editor
for Playboy.
303
00:18:42,037 --> 00:18:44,164
That's me directing a shoot,
304
00:18:45,124 --> 00:18:48,252
which was the Playmate of the Year Car,
as I recall.
305
00:18:49,128 --> 00:18:52,506
Beautiful young girls
would want to be Playmates.
306
00:18:52,589 --> 00:18:57,678
It was akin to them as being Miss America.
307
00:18:58,428 --> 00:19:03,475
Some girls would try year after year,
but they wouldn't make it.
308
00:19:03,559 --> 00:19:04,393
[inaudible]
309
00:19:04,476 --> 00:19:09,273
[Marilyn] The Playmates, there was just
this kind of magic that they had.
310
00:19:10,607 --> 00:19:12,359
And they were so excited
311
00:19:12,442 --> 00:19:15,028
when they would get accepted
as a Playmate.
312
00:19:15,612 --> 00:19:20,868
My idea of what really worked
for the magazine
313
00:19:20,951 --> 00:19:23,871
was a very natural-looking girl.
314
00:19:34,339 --> 00:19:37,217
I heard from a photographer in Texas.
315
00:19:37,301 --> 00:19:41,597
He said, "I have pictures of this girl
I think would be a good Playmate."
316
00:19:44,099 --> 00:19:50,355
Frizzed-up hair, a lot of lipstick,
a lot of eye shadow, and...
317
00:19:51,398 --> 00:19:54,234
ample, to put it mildly.
318
00:19:54,318 --> 00:19:55,652
So I said, "Whew!"
319
00:19:56,153 --> 00:19:57,779
"What am I gonna do with this?"
320
00:19:59,156 --> 00:20:03,160
So I decided to bring her in
for a Playmate test.
321
00:20:03,911 --> 00:20:07,080
My staff thought I was crazy.
322
00:20:07,789 --> 00:20:09,124
[somber music playing]
323
00:20:09,208 --> 00:20:12,920
[Marilyn] So I brought her in.
She didn't have any makeup on at all.
324
00:20:14,004 --> 00:20:16,089
She had beautiful features.
325
00:20:17,090 --> 00:20:23,305
She had that wonderful aura about her
of not trying too hard, you know?
326
00:20:23,388 --> 00:20:29,811
She was just this sweet gal
with this incredible face.
327
00:20:31,688 --> 00:20:33,232
We started testing her.
328
00:20:35,484 --> 00:20:38,862
Well, the photographer said,
"You'd better come in here."
329
00:20:38,946 --> 00:20:40,030
So I went in here,
330
00:20:40,113 --> 00:20:43,075
and she was sitting in the corner
with a sheet on,
331
00:20:43,659 --> 00:20:45,327
and she was terrified.
332
00:20:45,410 --> 00:20:49,998
And I thought,
"God, how can I get over this with her?"
333
00:20:50,082 --> 00:20:54,336
So I talked to her,
and she had brought a record with her.
334
00:20:55,754 --> 00:21:00,092
And into the preliminary shoot,
we put on the record.
335
00:21:00,801 --> 00:21:07,391
And it was Marilyn Monroe singing
"Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend."
336
00:21:07,474 --> 00:21:12,729
♪ A kiss on the hand
May be quite continental ♪
337
00:21:12,813 --> 00:21:15,941
♪ But diamonds are a girl's best friend ♪
338
00:21:16,024 --> 00:21:17,824
[Marilyn] And the minute I put
that record on,
339
00:21:17,859 --> 00:21:20,070
all of a sudden, she changed.
340
00:21:20,654 --> 00:21:22,447
She was a different person.
341
00:21:22,531 --> 00:21:24,241
[serene music playing]
342
00:21:33,250 --> 00:21:36,837
[Anna] Getting nude
was really hard for me.
343
00:21:37,587 --> 00:21:41,258
And I did it.
I'm not ashamed. I'm not ashamed at all.
344
00:21:42,259 --> 00:21:45,012
[interviewer] So what do you think
of Playboy as a magazine?
345
00:21:45,595 --> 00:21:48,765
Um, I think it's really a classy magazine.
346
00:21:50,976 --> 00:21:54,271
[interviewer] You called Playboy
a "dream magazine." Why?
347
00:21:54,771 --> 00:21:56,106
It was my dream,
348
00:21:56,189 --> 00:22:01,069
because it sort of kind of happened
to make my dreams come true.
349
00:22:01,153 --> 00:22:02,988
[cameras clicking]
350
00:22:03,613 --> 00:22:05,073
[Anna gasping, kissing]
351
00:22:05,157 --> 00:22:08,618
I put her on the cover
featuring debutants.
352
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,748
She was the furthest thing
from a debutant you could ever find,
353
00:22:12,831 --> 00:22:16,543
but I had her prim and proper,
sitting there,
354
00:22:16,626 --> 00:22:20,714
without overacting,
just giving us that nice smile.
355
00:22:21,298 --> 00:22:24,384
Hef approved the cover right away,
and there she was.
356
00:22:24,468 --> 00:22:26,470
[dramatic music playing]
357
00:22:33,185 --> 00:22:37,189
Fame is something that people strive for,
358
00:22:37,272 --> 00:22:39,733
but the other side of that coin
359
00:22:39,816 --> 00:22:43,653
is that fame finds people
and won't let 'em go.
360
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,701
[Missy] All those years,
she told me she'd be a famous model.
361
00:22:49,785 --> 00:22:51,665
Well, here she is.
She's doing it now, you know?
362
00:22:51,703 --> 00:22:54,790
Like, okay, you know, maybe...
'cause maybe I called it wrong.
363
00:22:54,873 --> 00:22:57,209
You go, girl.
I was, like, behind her all the way.
364
00:22:58,502 --> 00:22:59,544
Playboy had called,
365
00:22:59,628 --> 00:23:04,007
and they wanted her to come back out
and do, um, the Playmate of the Month.
366
00:23:04,841 --> 00:23:07,511
So, she needs someone
who could help with Daniel.
367
00:23:08,011 --> 00:23:09,179
[indistinct chatter]
368
00:23:09,262 --> 00:23:12,307
[Missy] So I moved into the house
in Spring, Texas.
369
00:23:12,391 --> 00:23:13,433
- Oh no!
- Oh no!
370
00:23:13,517 --> 00:23:16,520
[Missy] That is the first home that...
that Mr. Marshall had bought her.
371
00:23:16,603 --> 00:23:18,163
- [Anna] Hey, Missy!
- Go away. Go away.
372
00:23:18,230 --> 00:23:20,148
- [Anna] Hey!
- Yes, come on.
373
00:23:20,732 --> 00:23:22,332
- [Daniel] Let me have it.
- [man laughs]
374
00:23:23,110 --> 00:23:25,028
[Marilyn] Paul Marciano called me up.
375
00:23:25,779 --> 00:23:29,825
Paul was a good friend of mine,
and he was the head of Guess Jeans.
376
00:23:30,700 --> 00:23:32,744
And we started talking,
377
00:23:32,828 --> 00:23:36,081
and he commented on that girl
on the cover,
378
00:23:36,873 --> 00:23:38,291
and I said,
379
00:23:39,543 --> 00:23:41,837
"She is the new Claudia Schiffer."
380
00:23:42,546 --> 00:23:45,215
[commercial music playing]
381
00:23:49,970 --> 00:23:51,810
[ad narrator] Guess began
with the single dream
382
00:23:51,847 --> 00:23:53,807
of making jeans that are sexy,
383
00:23:53,890 --> 00:23:57,477
jeans that would show off a woman's body,
instead of hide it,
384
00:23:57,561 --> 00:24:00,981
jeans that would embrace
a woman's innate sensuality.
385
00:24:02,232 --> 00:24:05,360
[Missy] They were one of the biggest
jeans companies at the time,
386
00:24:05,444 --> 00:24:09,614
and Guess models
were all very, very famous.
387
00:24:09,698 --> 00:24:10,949
It was such a big deal.
388
00:24:11,616 --> 00:24:14,786
And she was really, really excited
about it.
389
00:24:14,870 --> 00:24:15,996
She just rolled out of bed,
390
00:24:16,079 --> 00:24:18,290
and she actually couldn't find
her hair tie.
391
00:24:18,373 --> 00:24:19,458
She took her thong off,
392
00:24:19,541 --> 00:24:21,501
and pulled her hair up,
put it in her hair.
393
00:24:21,585 --> 00:24:23,211
I was like, "Gross." [chuckling]
394
00:24:23,295 --> 00:24:25,714
And that's how she went.
And she came back. She looked great.
395
00:24:25,797 --> 00:24:28,258
They had done her hair and makeup,
and she really looked good.
396
00:24:28,341 --> 00:24:29,968
[contemplative music playing]
397
00:24:30,051 --> 00:24:31,511
[Missy] She was thrilled about it
398
00:24:31,595 --> 00:24:35,432
because Paul Marciano had told her
how great that they were coming out,
399
00:24:35,515 --> 00:24:36,808
and he... he was happy.
400
00:25:10,926 --> 00:25:13,053
[Missy] She said,
"Well, Paul and I decided
401
00:25:13,136 --> 00:25:15,972
that I need a... a name
that's less provincial."
402
00:25:16,056 --> 00:25:18,433
"You know, something more global."
403
00:25:19,559 --> 00:25:24,189
"I liked the name Anna, so I chose Anna,
and he put Nicole with it."
404
00:25:24,272 --> 00:25:27,400
And she said, "Voilà. Anna...
Anna Nicole Smith was born."
405
00:25:31,446 --> 00:25:33,615
"When we're in public, you call me that."
406
00:25:34,658 --> 00:25:37,578
"Don't call me Nicky in public.
I don't care if you keep calling me Nicky,
407
00:25:37,619 --> 00:25:40,622
but don't call me
anything but Anna Nicole in public."
408
00:25:40,705 --> 00:25:41,957
I said, "Okay." [chuckling]
409
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,042
[light music playing]
410
00:25:47,170 --> 00:25:48,964
[seagulls warbling]
411
00:25:52,676 --> 00:25:56,012
[Missy] The first modeling trip
that I took with her was to LA,
412
00:25:56,096 --> 00:25:58,348
and I saw the billboards.
413
00:25:59,099 --> 00:26:00,850
They were everywhere, you know? She...
414
00:26:00,934 --> 00:26:03,603
I started to see her face, uh,
all over the place,
415
00:26:03,687 --> 00:26:05,355
and it was so exciting.
416
00:26:06,189 --> 00:26:07,315
She had arrived.
417
00:26:07,816 --> 00:26:11,403
She was big and bold, and it was just...
418
00:26:11,486 --> 00:26:13,405
It's... it was magical. It really was.
419
00:26:14,406 --> 00:26:16,616
She got an invitation
from the Coen Brothers
420
00:26:16,700 --> 00:26:19,744
to go and read for a part
in The Hudsucker Proxy.
421
00:26:20,370 --> 00:26:21,788
And she goes in.
422
00:26:21,871 --> 00:26:24,583
One of the Coen brothers
was sitting over on the couch.
423
00:26:24,666 --> 00:26:27,002
And Nicky went over
and sat in front of him.
424
00:26:27,085 --> 00:26:32,507
And he gave her, uh, you know, the script,
and he said, "Uh, can you read this?"
425
00:26:32,591 --> 00:26:34,217
And she read it, and he said,
426
00:26:34,301 --> 00:26:37,512
"Okay, can you do it
with more, you know, meow?"
427
00:26:37,596 --> 00:26:38,763
And... And she did,
428
00:26:38,847 --> 00:26:42,350
and he goes, "That's perfect.
That's exactly what we're looking for."
429
00:26:42,434 --> 00:26:44,561
I was just acting very calm.
430
00:26:44,644 --> 00:26:47,748
And we said our goodbyes to everybody,
and got down to the bottom of the stairs,
431
00:26:47,772 --> 00:26:48,690
and start screaming.
432
00:26:48,773 --> 00:26:49,941
We're jumping up and down.
433
00:26:50,025 --> 00:26:52,235
That was her first movie.
She's in movies now.
434
00:26:52,986 --> 00:26:56,114
Mr. Barnes, Rumpus Magazine called you
the most eligible bachelor of the year,
435
00:26:56,197 --> 00:26:59,260
and the society pages have been linking
you with model Za-Za. Care to comment?
436
00:26:59,284 --> 00:27:01,953
There's no truth to the rumors.
We're just dear friends.
437
00:27:02,037 --> 00:27:03,455
Isn't that right, Za-Za?
438
00:27:04,122 --> 00:27:05,874

- [reporters] Whoa!
- [exclaiming, whistling]
441
00:27:09,586 --> 00:27:10,629
Whoa.

[contemplative music playing]
443
00:27:13,965 --> 00:27:15,405
[Missy] I got out my camera. I said,
444
00:27:15,467 --> 00:27:18,428
"Come on. You know, like, we're not gonna
waste that look." [chuckling]
445
00:27:18,511 --> 00:27:21,139
[camera shutters clicking]
446
00:27:21,222 --> 00:27:23,099
[Missy] I'll be like,
"Come on, give it to me."
447
00:27:23,183 --> 00:27:25,435
And you know how they talk on... on TV
448
00:27:25,518 --> 00:27:27,896
when they're taking photographs,
that kind of thing.
449
00:27:29,522 --> 00:27:30,982
She was so beautiful.
450
00:27:33,151 --> 00:27:35,070
I... I was really in love with her.
451
00:27:37,489 --> 00:27:41,201
I was her first, uh,
female lover, I guess.
452
00:27:43,995 --> 00:27:46,998
She had an insatiable appetite for sex,
just like everything else.
453
00:27:47,082 --> 00:27:48,958
She enjoyed having sex.
454
00:27:50,710 --> 00:27:53,713
She was exceptionally...
She... She got a lot of practice.
455
00:27:53,797 --> 00:27:57,217
She was good at what she did.
She was a good lover, a very good lover.
456
00:28:02,764 --> 00:28:05,975
I found it impossible
to be intimate with a male.
457
00:28:06,059 --> 00:28:07,811
I just... I didn't trust men.
458
00:28:09,229 --> 00:28:11,940
But I found it very easy
to be intimate with her.
459
00:28:12,899 --> 00:28:16,861
And that kept me fulfilled,
you know, for a very long time.
460
00:28:18,988 --> 00:28:19,989
I loved her.
461
00:28:20,573 --> 00:28:21,991
[music fades]

[tense music playing]
464
00:28:26,955 --> 00:28:30,458
[anchor] The world knows Anna Nicole Smith
as the Guess girl.
465
00:28:30,542 --> 00:28:32,127
[camera shutters clicking]
466
00:28:32,210 --> 00:28:33,420
[indistinct chatter]
467
00:28:34,671 --> 00:28:39,092
[anchor] She'd been told she was too tall,
too blonde, and too shapely
468
00:28:39,175 --> 00:28:40,301
to make it as a model.
469
00:28:40,385 --> 00:28:43,096
- Watch out for her.
- I'm... I'm... I'm a lot taller. [chuckling]
470
00:28:43,179 --> 00:28:47,100
[anchor] But now this small-town
Texas girl is a sudden superstar.
471
00:28:47,809 --> 00:28:50,937
[man] If any of my kids came to me
and said, "Daddy, I want to be famous."
472
00:28:51,438 --> 00:28:52,272
No.
473
00:28:52,355 --> 00:28:55,191
Uh, it's... it's not all
it's cracked up to be.
474
00:28:55,275 --> 00:28:57,610
Yeah, sure, you'll be famous
and you'll be adored.
475
00:28:57,694 --> 00:28:59,362
People will put your picture on the wall.
476
00:28:59,446 --> 00:29:01,126
You'd have the fancy house
in Beverly Hills
477
00:29:01,197 --> 00:29:04,284
with the swimming pool
and the glamorous car on the driveway.
478
00:29:04,367 --> 00:29:07,954
But along with fame,
there's stuff that comes along.
479
00:29:08,037 --> 00:29:10,832
It's a bit like a slag heap from...
with a coal mine, right?
480
00:29:10,915 --> 00:29:14,919
You get the coal, you get the diamonds,
but there's all this waste material too.
481
00:29:15,003 --> 00:29:16,087
That's like fame.
482
00:29:16,171 --> 00:29:20,091
There is... There is stuff that comes along
which I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.
483
00:29:20,175 --> 00:29:22,469
- [reporters clamoring]
- [camera shutters clicking]
484
00:29:22,552 --> 00:29:26,806
[man] When Anna Nicole went out,
she knew how to make a good story.
485
00:29:26,890 --> 00:29:28,951
[reporter] Where'd you get
all the beautiful flowers?
486
00:29:28,975 --> 00:29:30,727
- This man here.
- [reporter] Jeez.
487
00:29:31,436 --> 00:29:35,231
Much of what happens
with celebrity and paparazzi is a game.
488
00:29:35,315 --> 00:29:36,441
It's...
489
00:29:36,524 --> 00:29:38,526
it's a waltz that you do.
490
00:29:38,610 --> 00:29:42,322
And they know that they're on camera,
491
00:29:42,405 --> 00:29:45,575
so they know
they're not really interacting with me.
492
00:29:45,658 --> 00:29:47,744
They're interacting with the world.
493
00:29:47,827 --> 00:29:50,205
- [reporters clamoring]
- [Anna laughing]
494
00:29:50,288 --> 00:29:53,750
[Ligier] So the beat that we worked
was the Sunset Strip
495
00:29:53,833 --> 00:29:56,419
from Hollywood
through West Hollywood and Beverly Hills.
496
00:29:57,170 --> 00:30:00,048
And we primarily did
the nightclub circuit.
497
00:30:00,882 --> 00:30:04,469
We would sometimes start
at, like, 12:00, 12:30 at night.
498
00:30:05,094 --> 00:30:06,262
And, um...
499
00:30:07,138 --> 00:30:09,057
Because we didn't wanna get there
too early.
500
00:30:09,140 --> 00:30:12,477
We wanted to wait until people were,
you know, somewhat inebriated.
501
00:30:13,812 --> 00:30:17,190
Particularly with the showbiz in America,
they were just fed...
502
00:30:17,273 --> 00:30:19,734
Most of it was... was... was a lie, mostly.
503
00:30:19,818 --> 00:30:21,738
It was... It was whatever
they wanted to promote.
504
00:30:21,778 --> 00:30:24,781
You know, "This actor is not gay.
They're straight. Look at the proof here."
505
00:30:24,864 --> 00:30:26,824
They'd... They'd swallow it
hook, line and sinker.
506
00:30:27,659 --> 00:30:28,701
But we didn't do that.
507
00:30:28,785 --> 00:30:31,305
Instead of going in the front door,
we were around the back door
508
00:30:31,371 --> 00:30:33,373
and... and picking up on the...
on the chauffeurs,
509
00:30:33,456 --> 00:30:35,176
who could tell you
what was really going on,
510
00:30:35,250 --> 00:30:37,210
on... on the maids coming out of the houses
511
00:30:37,293 --> 00:30:39,754
who told you what was going on
behind closed doors.
512
00:30:39,838 --> 00:30:41,506
...plenty of that. Shut that shit off.
513
00:30:41,589 --> 00:30:43,550
[reporters clamoring]
514
00:30:43,633 --> 00:30:47,262
Anna Nicole, she was a money shot
every time you saw her.
515
00:30:47,846 --> 00:30:50,223
This is my Valentine for today.
516
00:30:50,306 --> 00:30:53,059
For today! It's once a year, so for today.
517
00:30:53,142 --> 00:30:54,142
[Ligier] We'd get calls,
518
00:30:54,185 --> 00:30:57,146
"Hey, if you get anything on Anna Nicole,
we'll buy it."
519
00:30:57,647 --> 00:31:00,692
It would be at least $2,500 a clip.
520
00:31:00,775 --> 00:31:04,946
But oftentimes, 5,000 to 7,500 a clip
because she was so animated.
521
00:31:05,029 --> 00:31:05,864
[Anna laughing]
522
00:31:05,947 --> 00:31:07,198
[reporter] That's wonderful.
523
00:31:07,282 --> 00:31:09,659
You know,
I'd almost be shaking while filming it,
524
00:31:09,742 --> 00:31:11,452
knowing that they're gonna love this.
525
00:31:11,953 --> 00:31:13,079
[Anna] I was giving...
526
00:31:13,162 --> 00:31:15,498
She came alive when she would see us.
527
00:31:16,958 --> 00:31:18,668
I love my flowers.
528
00:31:18,751 --> 00:31:20,753
[reporters clamoring]
529
00:31:24,132 --> 00:31:26,342
[Arsenio] Do men
have a hard time approaching you?
530
00:31:26,426 --> 00:31:28,303
Oh, they do have a hard time
approaching me,
531
00:31:28,386 --> 00:31:30,847
but if I have a relationship,
they're not shy at all in bed.
532
00:31:30,930 --> 00:31:31,764
[Arsenio] Oh... Yeah.
533
00:31:31,848 --> 00:31:34,350
[Anna] I thought that's what
you were trying to say at first.
534
00:31:34,434 --> 00:31:37,645
- [Arsenio] Um, we can talk more about sex.
- [Anna] Okay!
535
00:31:37,729 --> 00:31:39,790
[Arsenio] I could ask you questions
I asked Dr. Ruth.
536
00:31:39,814 --> 00:31:42,358
You know what I asked Dr. Ruth?
Has she ever faked an orgasm?
537
00:31:42,442 --> 00:31:44,402
- Have you ever faked an orgasm?
- Absolutely.
538
00:31:44,485 --> 00:31:47,405
- [Arsenio] You have?
- Many times over.
539
00:31:47,488 --> 00:31:48,716
- [Arsenio] Why?
- How about you?
540
00:31:48,740 --> 00:31:50,342
- [Arsenio] What? Wait. Um...
- It's hard...
541
00:31:50,366 --> 00:31:53,119
[audience laughing, cheering]
542
00:32:03,338 --> 00:32:05,757
[Missy] We were shooting
at this house in Malibu,
543
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,301
and when you looked
in the big plate-glass window,
544
00:32:08,384 --> 00:32:10,845
there was this gorgeous picture
of Marilyn Monroe.
545
00:32:11,471 --> 00:32:13,222
It took up the whole wall.
546
00:32:13,306 --> 00:32:16,351
Nicky was looking in the window and
she said, "Oh my God! Come look at this."
547
00:32:16,434 --> 00:32:18,978
"I have got to get in this house
and take a picture."
548
00:32:19,062 --> 00:32:23,983
This beautiful girl just caught my eye.
549
00:32:24,067 --> 00:32:28,321
They were yelling at her,
the director, "Don't disturb the tenants."
550
00:32:28,404 --> 00:32:30,990
So I opened the door,
and they were saying, "We're sorry."
551
00:32:31,074 --> 00:32:32,408
I said, "It's okay. Honest."
552
00:32:32,492 --> 00:32:33,576
[camera shutter clicking]
553
00:32:33,660 --> 00:32:37,580
There was really a deep bond
between her and Marilyn.
554
00:32:37,664 --> 00:32:38,706
[camera shutter clicking]
555
00:32:38,790 --> 00:32:40,291
She really felt like
556
00:32:40,375 --> 00:32:46,089
maybe she was
Marilyn's reincarnated daughter.
557
00:32:46,172 --> 00:32:47,256
[camera shutter clicking]
558
00:32:47,882 --> 00:32:52,512
We became friends,
and she found out I had the guest house.
559
00:32:52,595 --> 00:32:55,515
I said, "Well, you can stay here
if you want, Anna, anytime you want."
560
00:32:55,598 --> 00:32:56,598
She said, "Really?"
561
00:32:57,892 --> 00:32:58,892
[Anna] Hello.
562
00:32:59,477 --> 00:33:03,690
[Ashley] I think it meant, for her,
that she had privacy,
563
00:33:03,773 --> 00:33:06,609
that she was... she could be herself.
564
00:33:08,778 --> 00:33:12,865
Um, there's two major movies
that want me at once,
565
00:33:13,366 --> 00:33:15,535
and they're both shooting
at the same time.
566
00:33:16,369 --> 00:33:20,873
Um, one's called The Mask
by Chuck Russell, and one is Naked Gun 3.
567
00:33:21,582 --> 00:33:22,417
[smacks lips]
568
00:33:22,500 --> 00:33:25,712
Um, The Mask movie I've had
for about four months.
569
00:33:25,795 --> 00:33:29,632
I really haven't read the script
until last week.
570
00:33:29,716 --> 00:33:30,800
So, um...
571
00:33:33,177 --> 00:33:36,097
It's got Jim Carrey in it, that funny guy.
572
00:33:37,140 --> 00:33:40,101
So, I love the script.
573
00:33:41,269 --> 00:33:43,896
But the thing is, is...
574
00:33:43,980 --> 00:33:45,857
[sighs] They offered me...
575
00:33:45,940 --> 00:33:48,568
This... I have a lead role,
the lead girl role,
576
00:33:48,651 --> 00:33:51,029
and they offered me only... [laughs]
577
00:33:51,112 --> 00:33:52,530
This is embarrassing.
578
00:33:52,613 --> 00:33:55,074
They offered me $50,000.
579
00:33:56,159 --> 00:33:58,036
[pen tapping]
580
00:34:01,330 --> 00:34:02,415
[Anna] Right.
581
00:34:03,207 --> 00:34:06,878
I love it, and I think
it'd show more of my acting ability.
582
00:34:10,465 --> 00:34:11,924
Me too. [chuckling]
583
00:34:12,008 --> 00:34:13,801
Okay. Thanks.
584
00:34:14,635 --> 00:34:17,513
[Ashley] I'm not sure
what Anna needed her refuge from.
585
00:34:19,307 --> 00:34:20,307
[Anna sighing]
586
00:34:20,892 --> 00:34:21,934
Business.
587
00:34:24,020 --> 00:34:27,356
Um, maybe from her... herself. I don't know.
588
00:34:29,317 --> 00:34:31,319
[contemplative music playing]
589
00:34:35,656 --> 00:34:37,825
[phone line ringing]
590
00:34:42,497 --> 00:34:43,706
[woman] Marshall residence.
591
00:34:43,790 --> 00:34:45,666
[Anna] I need to speak
with Howard, please.
592
00:34:45,750 --> 00:34:47,350
- [woman] Okay, hold on.
- [Anna] Mm-hmm.
593
00:34:48,753 --> 00:34:49,833
[Marshall] Hello, precious.
594
00:34:49,879 --> 00:34:51,130
[Anna] Hi, honey.
595
00:34:51,214 --> 00:34:52,507
[Marshall] How's my lady fair?
596
00:34:52,590 --> 00:34:55,218
[Anna] I'm doing okay. I miss you, though.
597
00:34:55,718 --> 00:34:57,553
[Marshall] I miss you too.
598
00:34:58,137 --> 00:34:59,180
[Anna] Do you miss me?
599
00:34:59,722 --> 00:35:01,099
[Marshall] Very, very much.
600
00:35:01,182 --> 00:35:02,183
[Anna] How much?
601
00:35:03,476 --> 00:35:04,769
[Marshall] Light of my life.
602
00:35:04,852 --> 00:35:06,562
[Anna] You're the light of mine, honey.
603
00:35:07,063 --> 00:35:08,689
I love you. Give me a kiss.
604
00:35:08,773 --> 00:35:09,857
[kissing]
605
00:35:10,608 --> 00:35:11,776
[Anna] Love you, sweetie.
606
00:35:11,859 --> 00:35:13,419
[Marshall] Take care, precious package.
607
00:35:13,444 --> 00:35:14,320
[Anna] I will.
608
00:35:14,403 --> 00:35:16,405
[music continues]
609
00:35:24,664 --> 00:35:25,748
[music fades]
610
00:35:31,170 --> 00:35:32,421
[Anna] Cowboy.
611
00:35:32,505 --> 00:35:34,507
[music playing over radio]
612
00:35:45,101 --> 00:35:46,227
[Anna] There's Jesus.
613
00:35:46,727 --> 00:35:51,440
[woman] When I first went to meet Anna,
I was, uh, taking a document,
614
00:35:51,941 --> 00:35:55,820
and she breezed in,
and Howard wanted to talk to me.
615
00:35:56,737 --> 00:35:59,490
He wanted to adopt Daniel, Anna's son.
616
00:36:01,951 --> 00:36:06,831
He wanted to do that, clearly,
to protect Anna and Daniel.
617
00:36:06,914 --> 00:36:08,958
Because if Daniel was his son,
618
00:36:09,041 --> 00:36:11,544
then he would be his heir,
and they would be protected.
619
00:36:11,627 --> 00:36:15,548
There would be nothing
that his family could do
620
00:36:15,631 --> 00:36:17,425
to freeze them out.
621
00:36:17,508 --> 00:36:18,926
[somber music playing]
622
00:36:22,430 --> 00:36:23,806
[Daniel] Is that a statue?
623
00:36:27,101 --> 00:36:29,228
- [Anna chuckling]
- [Marshall laughing]
624
00:36:31,647 --> 00:36:36,444
[Kelly] He told me, "Tell him to go ahead.
Tell him to go ahead.
625
00:36:36,527 --> 00:36:38,029
Make sure it happens."
626
00:36:38,529 --> 00:36:42,241
So I went back to the lawyer
I was working for,
627
00:36:42,325 --> 00:36:46,329
and I said to him
that Howard was very insistent
628
00:36:46,412 --> 00:36:49,081
that he wanted this adoption
to go forward.
629
00:36:49,165 --> 00:36:52,668
And the lawyer looked at me
and just rolled his eyes.
630
00:36:52,752 --> 00:36:53,752
[scoffing]
631
00:36:57,965 --> 00:37:02,678
The lawyer was just completely dismissive,
which was really peculiar.
632
00:37:05,431 --> 00:37:08,476
[Daniel] Mama, that is... What's that?
633
00:37:09,352 --> 00:37:11,354
[indistinct chatter]
634
00:37:11,437 --> 00:37:14,523
[Kelly] I don't want... I don't ever want
to give the impression
635
00:37:15,066 --> 00:37:18,611
that the relationship
that Anna had with Howard
636
00:37:18,694 --> 00:37:21,822
was simply a gold digger
kind of relationship.
637
00:37:21,906 --> 00:37:23,407
Uh, what impressed me,
638
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:28,287
uh, between the two of them
was how much they loved each other
639
00:37:28,371 --> 00:37:30,539
and how well-suited they were
to each other.
640
00:37:30,623 --> 00:37:33,542
And that seems terribly improbable to say.
641
00:37:33,626 --> 00:37:35,711
She was such a young, voluptuous woman,
642
00:37:36,295 --> 00:37:39,966
and he was an... little, old gnome of a man,
643
00:37:40,049 --> 00:37:42,593
but they were both, um...
644
00:37:42,677 --> 00:37:44,971
[smacks lips]
...kind of extraordinary people
645
00:37:45,471 --> 00:37:48,599
that... that other people were always trying
to take pieces of.
646
00:37:48,683 --> 00:37:52,353
And Howard and Anna were protection
for each other.
647
00:37:53,020 --> 00:37:55,147
They got each other.
648
00:37:56,190 --> 00:37:58,234
[Anna] Daniel wants to say hi to you.
649
00:38:00,361 --> 00:38:02,446
- [Daniel] Hi, Dad.
- [Marshall] Hi, Daniel.
650
00:38:04,490 --> 00:38:05,700
I love you, Daddy.
651
00:38:06,325 --> 00:38:07,325
[Marshall] I love you.
652
00:38:07,827 --> 00:38:08,827
[Daniel] Okay.
653
00:38:20,715 --> 00:38:22,717
[gentle music playing]
654
00:38:34,437 --> 00:38:37,231
[man] We lived in, uh, Oakhurst, Texas.
655
00:38:37,315 --> 00:38:40,860
And there was, like, 215 people
in the whole entire town.
656
00:38:42,528 --> 00:38:48,075
There's literally a post office,
a... a gas station, and a... a bait shop.
657
00:38:48,159 --> 00:38:49,285
[Donnie chuckling]
658
00:38:52,288 --> 00:38:55,583
[Missy] Nicky had never known
her biological father,
659
00:38:56,083 --> 00:38:59,879
and she believed it was because her mother
was just an impossible tyrant
660
00:38:59,962 --> 00:39:02,673
who didn't want her
to have her father around.
661
00:39:05,217 --> 00:39:10,639
So Nicky had, uh, built a vision
in her head of who this... this man was,
662
00:39:10,723 --> 00:39:13,642
and... and she just knew
he had to be out there looking for her
663
00:39:13,726 --> 00:39:14,935
like she was looking for him.
664
00:39:16,562 --> 00:39:18,564
[phone ringing]
665
00:39:19,315 --> 00:39:21,317
[birds chirping]
666
00:39:22,485 --> 00:39:25,863
[Donnie] Well, we had
a private investigator call the house
667
00:39:25,946 --> 00:39:31,160
and want to know if, uh... if my father
wanted to talk to his daughter.
668
00:39:31,952 --> 00:39:34,747
And he wouldn't really give
any information.
669
00:39:34,830 --> 00:39:38,376
Just wanted to pretty much know if...
if he wanted to speak to her.
670
00:39:38,459 --> 00:39:40,461
He said, "Yeah, yeah, I'll talk to her."
671
00:39:40,544 --> 00:39:42,546
And he hung up the phone,
672
00:39:43,255 --> 00:39:45,341
and then of course the phone rings.
673
00:39:45,424 --> 00:39:50,763
And then, uh, you know, he picks it up
and, uh, started talking to her,
674
00:39:50,846 --> 00:39:54,183
and she's wanting to bring us
out to California,
675
00:39:54,266 --> 00:39:57,269
but she wouldn't really tell us
much information.
676
00:39:57,353 --> 00:39:58,729
...gonna go see my Daddy.
677
00:39:58,813 --> 00:40:01,107
You know, her last name, anything.
678
00:40:01,190 --> 00:40:05,152
Just like, "Hey, I got tickets for you,
and, you know, come see me." [chuckling]
679
00:40:06,153 --> 00:40:07,153
[Anna] Hi!
680
00:40:07,196 --> 00:40:08,280
[radio playing commercial]
681
00:40:08,364 --> 00:40:09,573
[man] What a sweetheart.
682
00:40:12,827 --> 00:40:13,869
So, um,
683
00:40:13,953 --> 00:40:17,039
what did you say the very first time
when you called them up?
684
00:40:19,041 --> 00:40:21,085
I don't remember. I was shaking.
685
00:40:21,961 --> 00:40:23,129
I was very emotional.
686
00:40:23,212 --> 00:40:25,092
I was trying not to cry
because I had makeup on.
687
00:40:25,172 --> 00:40:26,549
I was going... Aah!
688
00:40:26,632 --> 00:40:28,312
[man] And what was your father's reaction?
689
00:40:28,384 --> 00:40:31,303
He was so happy. Like, freaking out.
690
00:40:31,387 --> 00:40:35,057
He said he waited for this day
for years and years and years.
691
00:40:35,141 --> 00:40:37,768
And he said there wasn't one night
he would go to sleep,
692
00:40:37,852 --> 00:40:39,562
and I wasn't in his prayers.
693
00:40:41,063 --> 00:40:42,857
[radio playing indistinctly]
694
00:40:45,317 --> 00:40:46,360
[Anna] Hi!
695
00:40:47,778 --> 00:40:49,613
[Anna laughing]
696
00:40:49,697 --> 00:40:53,117
I was literally like,
"I have no idea what I'm walking into."
697
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,245
You know, even my dad was like,
"There's something going on."
698
00:40:57,163 --> 00:41:00,207
We just know we're supposed to meet her
there at the, uh, airport.
699
00:41:00,291 --> 00:41:01,292
[indistinct chatter]
700
00:41:01,375 --> 00:41:02,375
There she is.
701
00:41:03,294 --> 00:41:04,503
[Anna] Is that my daddy?
702
00:41:04,587 --> 00:41:05,588
[man] That's him.
703
00:41:08,716 --> 00:41:10,217
[man] Let me get this for you.
704
00:41:12,219 --> 00:41:13,429
[Anna giggling]
705
00:41:18,976 --> 00:41:19,977
Love you!
706
00:41:21,103 --> 00:41:26,442
[Donnie] This beautiful girl, you know,
comes out with pigtails. [laughs]
707
00:41:26,525 --> 00:41:27,525
Brother?
708
00:41:28,777 --> 00:41:32,448
[Donnie] And I'm like,
"Is this her?" You know?
709
00:41:32,531 --> 00:41:34,492
[Anna speaking indistinctly, laughing]
710
00:41:34,575 --> 00:41:36,660
Honestly, I was still in shock.
711
00:41:37,620 --> 00:41:39,830
This is my daddy and my brother!
712
00:41:41,457 --> 00:41:44,084
...go to my car and get the stuff out?
713
00:41:44,168 --> 00:41:46,212
[Donnie] And she goes,
"Do you know who I am?"
714
00:41:47,171 --> 00:41:48,631
"You've never seen me before?"
715
00:41:50,049 --> 00:41:52,593
I believe, uh,
Missy, uh, was in there too,
716
00:41:52,676 --> 00:41:55,513
and, uh, she was, like, going,
717
00:41:55,596 --> 00:41:57,436
"You... You don't recognize her?
You don't..."
718
00:41:57,473 --> 00:42:00,017
And, "She might be hanging on your wall."
719
00:42:00,100 --> 00:42:02,186
Yes! My daddy.
720
00:42:02,269 --> 00:42:03,354
[rock music playing]
721
00:42:03,437 --> 00:42:05,147
Okay, now I'll tell you what I do.
722
00:42:06,023 --> 00:42:07,149
[Donnie] I gotta hear this.
723
00:42:08,192 --> 00:42:10,236
Um, I'm a Guess model.
724
00:42:10,319 --> 00:42:12,780
I'm also Playmate of the Year this year.
725
00:42:13,864 --> 00:42:16,617
Um, do you know who Guess jeans is?
726
00:42:17,117 --> 00:42:19,912
Maybe who... who Hugh Hefner is.
727
00:42:19,995 --> 00:42:21,475
- [Anna] Yes.
- [nervous chuckle] Yes.
728
00:42:22,081 --> 00:42:24,708
[Anna] Hugh Hefner's part
of our family now.
729
00:42:25,376 --> 00:42:27,586
[man] You'll be at the Playboy Mansion
Sunday night.
730
00:42:27,670 --> 00:42:30,047
[Anna] You'll be at the Mansion tomorrow
to meet everybody.
731
00:42:30,130 --> 00:42:31,924
[man] So you'll meet Hef in person.
732
00:42:32,466 --> 00:42:34,843
- She's been so excited about this.
- [Anna chuckling]
733
00:42:34,927 --> 00:42:37,555
- [man] Man, you couldn't believe it.
- Yeah, I have.
734
00:42:39,223 --> 00:42:42,768
It's a great day.
It's so good to see this.
735
00:42:44,770 --> 00:42:46,230
Oh gosh, okay.
736
00:42:48,148 --> 00:42:49,733
[gentle music playing]
737
00:42:49,817 --> 00:42:51,569
[Donnie] No, at the beginning,
it was great.
738
00:42:51,652 --> 00:42:54,530
I mean, she was excited. We were excited.
739
00:42:54,613 --> 00:42:58,867
I mean, you could tell she, like,
wanted a father figure in her life.
740
00:42:58,951 --> 00:43:00,953
[inaudible]
741
00:43:02,413 --> 00:43:04,623
[Donnie] We all decided
to go to Disneyland.
742
00:43:05,291 --> 00:43:08,752
Daniel was there, and, you know,
I got to meet him, my nephew.
743
00:43:09,420 --> 00:43:12,756
And, uh... And he had
some blond, blond hair,
744
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:14,383
just like I did, you know?
745
00:43:14,466 --> 00:43:17,094
I was like, "Wow! The kid looks
just like me when I was little."
746
00:43:17,177 --> 00:43:18,304
[chuckling] You know?
747
00:43:19,430 --> 00:43:20,723
It was a beautiful day.
748
00:43:21,974 --> 00:43:24,184
She wasn't getting along with her mother.
749
00:43:24,268 --> 00:43:26,645
You know,
that's why she got a hold of our father.
750
00:43:26,729 --> 00:43:29,481
You know,
everybody wants to look up to somebody.
751
00:43:31,317 --> 00:43:35,738
I just met my real father
for the first time in 24 years.
752
00:43:36,238 --> 00:43:38,198
[man] I never expected
it'd happen this late.
753
00:43:38,282 --> 00:43:41,535
You know, that many years gone by and, uh...
754
00:43:41,619 --> 00:43:43,996
Anyway, here she is, and here I am.
755
00:43:44,079 --> 00:43:47,124
And I think she's really done great
for herself.
756
00:43:47,207 --> 00:43:48,834
She's beautiful, and I love her.
757
00:43:49,335 --> 00:43:50,669
And I love you too.
758
00:43:51,503 --> 00:43:52,755
And he's my daddy.
759
00:43:54,214 --> 00:43:55,799
[dramatic music playing]
760
00:43:56,842 --> 00:43:59,094
[Donnie] We were, like, invited
to the Playboy Mansion.
761
00:43:59,178 --> 00:44:01,472
You know, I'm like, "You're kidding."
762
00:44:02,431 --> 00:44:07,102
And it was, like, a big party of, uh...
for her being Playmate of the Year.
763
00:44:07,603 --> 00:44:09,980
I remember, uh, meeting Hugh Hefner.
764
00:44:11,940 --> 00:44:17,529
Uh, he was giving her her gift,
which was a... a champagne-looking Jaguar.
765
00:44:18,781 --> 00:44:19,907
My dad was there too.
766
00:44:23,452 --> 00:44:26,163
[Marilyn] Looked a little
like Elvis Presley, I remember.
767
00:44:26,246 --> 00:44:29,416
Anna Nicole burst into my office saying,
768
00:44:29,500 --> 00:44:33,629
"My dad's here! My dad found me!"
769
00:44:33,712 --> 00:44:35,005
[Marilyn chuckling]
770
00:44:35,089 --> 00:44:37,800
She was over the moon with excitement.
771
00:44:38,801 --> 00:44:41,011
And she brought him in, and I met him.
772
00:44:41,095 --> 00:44:43,180
He seemed very nice, very polite.
773
00:44:44,556 --> 00:44:46,183
They left together.
774
00:44:46,266 --> 00:44:48,060
And then that was it.
775
00:44:48,143 --> 00:44:49,853
He never came back.
776
00:44:49,937 --> 00:44:54,608
So I don't honestly know
what ever happened to him.
777
00:44:55,859 --> 00:44:57,861
[ominous music playing]
778
00:45:01,407 --> 00:45:03,659
[Donnie] I wanted Vickie
to know the truth.
779
00:45:05,786 --> 00:45:10,624
My father is not a type of guy
you want to be alone with,
780
00:45:10,708 --> 00:45:12,793
or say... or... or feel safe.
781
00:45:12,876 --> 00:45:14,336
You're not gonna feel safe.
782
00:45:15,796 --> 00:45:18,215
I mean, he's... he's a monster.
783
00:45:18,298 --> 00:45:20,300
[crows cawing]
784
00:45:20,884 --> 00:45:24,638
[Donnie] I was about 16.
785
00:45:25,139 --> 00:45:26,473
He told me a story
786
00:45:27,641 --> 00:45:31,687
about how he, uh, raped his wife's sister.
787
00:45:33,397 --> 00:45:37,943
He chased her down by a tree
when his wife wasn't around.
788
00:45:39,069 --> 00:45:40,529
She was a child.
789
00:45:44,158 --> 00:45:45,492
He's very scary.
790
00:45:47,161 --> 00:45:49,163
Uh, I was always afraid of him.
791
00:45:50,330 --> 00:45:51,457
"I'll kill you dead."
792
00:45:51,540 --> 00:45:53,667
"I'll stomp your head
right in the ground."
793
00:45:53,751 --> 00:45:55,544
I mean, he's that type of person
794
00:45:55,627 --> 00:46:00,090
where he looks right at you,
and you really believe he will do that.
795
00:46:02,509 --> 00:46:04,595
And I just let her know straight up that...
796
00:46:05,596 --> 00:46:07,389
that, you know,
everything about him is true.
797
00:46:09,725 --> 00:46:11,810
[Missy] Nicky came back from Los Angeles,
798
00:46:11,894 --> 00:46:15,522
and I asked her
about her father and her brother,
799
00:46:15,606 --> 00:46:18,400
and she said
she didn't want to talk about it.
800
00:46:18,484 --> 00:46:22,404
Um, so we got...
When we were alone, um, on the plane,
801
00:46:22,488 --> 00:46:23,947
uh, she told me
802
00:46:24,031 --> 00:46:27,701
that, um, uh, her father had tried
to have sex with her.
803
00:46:28,911 --> 00:46:29,911
My dad?
804
00:46:30,954 --> 00:46:31,954
Assaulted her?
805
00:46:37,377 --> 00:46:39,338
No. I mean, it's...
806
00:46:39,421 --> 00:46:40,881
Uh, that would be like him.
807
00:46:42,633 --> 00:46:43,842
But is it true?
808
00:46:45,803 --> 00:46:46,887
It couldn't be.
809
00:46:48,806 --> 00:46:50,849
I was there every step of the way.
810
00:46:54,061 --> 00:46:56,772
But you know what?
I wouldn't put it past him. I mean...
811
00:46:56,855 --> 00:46:58,190
I guess, uh,
812
00:46:59,066 --> 00:47:00,776
guess I wasn't there all the time.
813
00:47:02,945 --> 00:47:03,987
So it could be true.
814
00:47:09,910 --> 00:47:13,831
[voice breaking] You could see it on,
and I was really sad to see that...
815
00:47:13,914 --> 00:47:15,290
[sucks teeth] ...for her,
816
00:47:15,374 --> 00:47:17,960
because I know how happy she was when...
817
00:47:18,043 --> 00:47:19,878
when she met... you know, when she met him.
818
00:47:19,962 --> 00:47:22,673
'Cause she had all these, um,
ideas in her head
819
00:47:22,756 --> 00:47:25,259
of what he was like
and what it was gonna be like,
820
00:47:25,342 --> 00:47:27,636
and she was just so, so disappointed.
821
00:47:28,887 --> 00:47:31,014
- [man] Anna!
- [crowd clamoring]
822
00:47:31,098 --> 00:47:32,516
[dramatic music playing]
823
00:47:32,599 --> 00:47:33,642
[car horn honking]
824
00:47:33,725 --> 00:47:35,602
[camera shutters clicking]
825
00:47:35,686 --> 00:47:37,896
[reporter] Anna Nicole,
you been to Luther's lately?
826
00:47:37,980 --> 00:47:41,358
No, I haven't been to Luther's.
I haven't been anywhere.
827
00:47:41,441 --> 00:47:43,944
I went out with my friend tonight,
and that's it.
828
00:47:44,027 --> 00:47:45,227
[reporter] This isn't Houston.
829
00:47:45,279 --> 00:47:47,823
[Ligier] We had been seeing
Anna Nicole show up at various clubs
830
00:47:47,906 --> 00:47:49,533
with many different people,
831
00:47:49,616 --> 00:47:53,453
and then she shows up
with this young, blond guy...
832
00:47:53,537 --> 00:47:55,539
[camera shutters clicking]
833
00:47:56,915 --> 00:47:58,876
She was somewhat subdued with him,
834
00:47:58,959 --> 00:48:01,795
but she was showing him off
as her new boyfriend.
835
00:48:03,130 --> 00:48:04,172
Michael?
836
00:48:06,842 --> 00:48:08,135
Bye. Good night!
837
00:48:08,218 --> 00:48:09,803
[reporters clamoring]
838
00:48:11,597 --> 00:48:13,640
[siren wailing]
839
00:48:16,059 --> 00:48:19,563
[anchor] Model-turned-actress
Anna Nicole Smith has been hospitalized.
840
00:48:19,646 --> 00:48:21,189
Now, the story broke just hours ago.
841
00:48:21,273 --> 00:48:23,859
So right now,
there aren't a lot of details.
842
00:48:23,942 --> 00:48:25,944
[suspenseful music playing]
843
00:48:30,282 --> 00:48:31,617
[sirens wailing]
844
00:48:32,659 --> 00:48:35,329
[Ligier] Four months prior to Anna Nicole,
845
00:48:36,163 --> 00:48:39,124
River Phoenix, another actor,
had a drug overdose
846
00:48:39,207 --> 00:48:42,336
and died on the streets of Hollywood
right on the Sunset Strip.
847
00:48:42,419 --> 00:48:45,255
It was...
it was a trend that was starting to happen
848
00:48:45,339 --> 00:48:48,467
where people were taking
their partying too far.
849
00:48:48,550 --> 00:48:49,760
[sirens wailing]
850
00:48:50,802 --> 00:48:53,922
[Kevin] When the news came out, I think
a lot of people were initially shocked,
851
00:48:53,972 --> 00:48:58,101
um, you know, because drugs,
it's... it's not something...
852
00:48:58,185 --> 00:49:00,020
You don't automatically assume with her.
853
00:49:00,103 --> 00:49:02,773
I mean, she... she still had this persona,
of course,
854
00:49:02,856 --> 00:49:05,651
of the... of the girl next door from...
from Texas.
855
00:49:05,734 --> 00:49:07,903
So that shattered that illusion.
856
00:49:08,403 --> 00:49:10,822
It also made her more attractive to us,
857
00:49:10,906 --> 00:49:14,409
because, "Hey, there's some... there's some
dirt there that we can... we can go after."
858
00:49:14,493 --> 00:49:16,662
- [reporter] You got the camera?
- [reporter 2] Anna?
859
00:49:16,745 --> 00:49:18,580
Anna, can we get some pictures, dear?
860
00:49:18,664 --> 00:49:19,748
[reporters clamoring]
861
00:49:19,831 --> 00:49:21,959
[Anna] You know, I'm just one little girl.
862
00:49:22,042 --> 00:49:23,919
I'm just one little person,
863
00:49:24,002 --> 00:49:29,049
and I've got 50 things thrown at me,
and I'm like, "You know, what did I do?"
864
00:49:29,132 --> 00:49:33,804
"What did I ever do
but, you know, take pills?"
865
00:49:33,887 --> 00:49:37,015
Well, take pills and drink alcohol.
But I've never hurt anybody.
866
00:49:37,099 --> 00:49:40,560
[man] Let me ask you. Do you worry at all
about ever falling back into that?
867
00:49:40,644 --> 00:49:42,729
Oh, absolutely not.
It will never happen again.
868
00:49:42,813 --> 00:49:44,189
[laughing] I promise.
869
00:49:44,773 --> 00:49:46,358
No. Mm-mm.
870
00:49:46,441 --> 00:49:49,444
Well, I'm still seeing Nicky, my friend,
871
00:49:49,528 --> 00:49:54,658
and she's... she's really changing
in an exponential way at this point,
872
00:49:54,741 --> 00:49:58,412
because, uh,
she's, uh... she's now Anna Nicole Smith.
873
00:49:58,495 --> 00:49:59,705
[somber music playing]
874
00:49:59,788 --> 00:50:03,500
[Missy] And she's got these...
these important people calling her.
875
00:50:03,583 --> 00:50:06,962
She's got these Guess people calling.
She's got the Playboy people calling.
876
00:50:07,045 --> 00:50:08,880
She has all these obligations now.
877
00:50:08,964 --> 00:50:10,716
[camera shutter clicking]
878
00:50:10,799 --> 00:50:12,968
[Missy] And it just got overwhelming.
879
00:50:13,051 --> 00:50:15,762
She would show up to shoots
looking kinda haggard, and...
880
00:50:16,471 --> 00:50:18,640
and she would get called on the carpet
for it,
881
00:50:18,724 --> 00:50:21,018
and of course that adds more stress to it.
882
00:50:25,355 --> 00:50:27,816
I think a lot of the stress
that she was dealing with, too,
883
00:50:27,899 --> 00:50:30,318
came from the fact
that she was hiding this from Marshall.
884
00:50:30,402 --> 00:50:33,488
She was always scared
that it was gonna come out, you know?
885
00:50:33,572 --> 00:50:38,326
And so she's taking more and more
and more pills to... to relieve the stress.
886
00:50:38,410 --> 00:50:42,372
And I... I'm getting worried
about her, uh, state of mind,
887
00:50:42,456 --> 00:50:46,168
because I'm starting to notice changes
in her personality.
888
00:50:46,251 --> 00:50:51,423
Uh, she's getting to where, uh,
she's no longer grateful to Mr. Marshall.
889
00:50:51,506 --> 00:50:54,551
She's really treating him
like an ATM, kind of, now.
890
00:50:54,634 --> 00:50:57,220
So he gives her a credit card, and it's...
891
00:50:57,304 --> 00:51:00,098
He... He shares his personal credit card
with her,
892
00:51:00,182 --> 00:51:03,060
which has this ungodly limit on it,
893
00:51:03,143 --> 00:51:05,270
and she... she maxes it out.
894
00:51:05,353 --> 00:51:07,355
[ominous music playing]
895
00:51:08,065 --> 00:51:11,818
[Kelly] J. Howard's son, Pierce Marshall,
worked for his father.
896
00:51:11,902 --> 00:51:17,074
And even the one time
I heard Howard talking to Pierce,
897
00:51:17,157 --> 00:51:23,538
my sense is that Pierce had to endure
a lot of assaults on his dignity
898
00:51:23,622 --> 00:51:24,706
working for his father.
899
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:32,297
And I think there was a lot of resentment
that Pierce had for his father
900
00:51:32,380 --> 00:51:35,092
and even more resentment
that Pierce had for Anna,
901
00:51:35,175 --> 00:51:38,845
that Anna was just gonna come along
this late in the game
902
00:51:38,929 --> 00:51:41,389
and take away from Pierce.
903
00:51:42,599 --> 00:51:44,935
The things that he had put up with,
904
00:51:45,685 --> 00:51:48,939
garbage from his father for years.
905
00:51:49,022 --> 00:51:51,566
And... And he wasn't gonna let it happen.
906
00:51:51,650 --> 00:51:53,151
He wasn't gonna let it happen.
907
00:51:56,613 --> 00:51:59,032
[Missy] Of course,
Mr. Marshall is spoiling her rotten,
908
00:51:59,116 --> 00:52:01,076
and Pierce is the one
who handled these things.
909
00:52:01,159 --> 00:52:04,955
So he sees all of this money
that's being plowed into her.
910
00:52:05,038 --> 00:52:06,038
[music fades]
911
00:52:06,706 --> 00:52:10,585
I felt like she was trying
to fill herself up with this stuff,
912
00:52:10,669 --> 00:52:13,713
because there was a hole
in her soul or her spirit,
913
00:52:13,797 --> 00:52:16,675
and she's trying to fill it up
with all this outside stuff,
914
00:52:16,758 --> 00:52:18,510
and it just... it was never gonna get full.
915
00:52:18,593 --> 00:52:21,930
I mean, all that does
is... is make you want more.
916
00:52:23,932 --> 00:52:25,934
[somber music playing]
917
00:52:50,417 --> 00:52:51,459

918
00:52:51,543 --> 00:52:53,253
[Marshall] This is your husband.
919
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:54,920
Love you.
920
00:52:55,839 --> 00:52:57,299
I've been trying to find you.
921
00:52:58,175 --> 00:52:59,217
Please call me.

[Marshall] Please call your man.
924
00:53:08,852 --> 00:53:09,895
I love you.

[Marshall] This is your man...

trying to find his lady fair.
928
00:53:19,696 --> 00:53:20,739
Love you.
929
00:53:21,448 --> 00:53:22,490
Please call me.
930
00:53:26,745 --> 00:53:27,871
[machine beeping]
931
00:53:30,123 --> 00:53:32,334
[Marshall] Your husband wants
to talk to you.
932
00:53:33,126 --> 00:53:34,377
Please call me.
933
00:53:35,212 --> 00:53:36,463
Love you dearly.

[machine beeping]
936
00:53:40,967 --> 00:53:41,968
[Anna] Hello?
937
00:53:42,052 --> 00:53:44,179
- [Marshall] Hello, dearest.
- [Anna] Hello.
938
00:53:44,262 --> 00:53:46,848
- [Marshall] Where are you?
- [Anna] I'm in bed.
939
00:53:46,932 --> 00:53:49,392
[Marshall] I've been trying to call you
for an hour.
940
00:53:49,976 --> 00:53:51,144
[Anna] You have?
941
00:53:51,228 --> 00:53:53,730
- [Marshall] Do you love your man?
- [Anna] Yes.
942
00:53:53,813 --> 00:53:56,024
[Marshall] Your man loves his lady fair.
943
00:53:56,107 --> 00:53:57,400
[Anna] Quit waking me up,
944
00:53:57,484 --> 00:53:59,778
or I'm gonna knock you out when I see you.
945
00:53:59,861 --> 00:54:01,571
[Marshall chuckles]
All right, dearest one.
946
00:54:02,405 --> 00:54:05,116
- [Anna] I love you.
- [Marshall] Take care, precious package.
947
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:06,200
[Anna] Oh yeah.
948
00:54:06,243 --> 00:54:08,286
[Marshall] I told you
that my dream last night
949
00:54:08,370 --> 00:54:10,830
was that I'd been put on this Earth
950
00:54:11,373 --> 00:54:14,918
to try to make life better for you
than when you were young.
951
00:54:15,001 --> 00:54:16,795
[Anna] I know, honey.
952
00:54:16,878 --> 00:54:19,381
Tell me tomorrow. I'll forget tonight.
953
00:54:19,464 --> 00:54:21,024
[Marshall chuckles] All right, dearest.
954
00:54:21,091 --> 00:54:22,008
[Anna] Okay. Bye.
955
00:54:22,092 --> 00:54:24,636
- [Marshall] Take care, precious package.
- [Anna] I will.
956
00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:26,513
- [Marshall] Good night.
- [Anna] Good night.
957
00:54:26,596 --> 00:54:28,598
[somber music playing]
958
00:54:40,860 --> 00:54:42,779
[Missy] There came a point
where I realized
959
00:54:42,862 --> 00:54:46,241
that me being there
was not beneficial to her anymore.
960
00:54:46,324 --> 00:54:47,909
There was nothing I could do about it.
961
00:54:47,993 --> 00:54:50,328
I mean, and it's like banging your head
on the wall.
962
00:54:50,412 --> 00:54:52,914
And you're watching this person
that you love and care about
963
00:54:52,998 --> 00:54:56,251
morph into this thing that... that is just...
964
00:54:56,334 --> 00:54:59,462
just an egotistical monster
that is selfish.
965
00:55:00,672 --> 00:55:03,425
And she's a full-blown drug addict.
I mean, there's no way around it.
966
00:55:03,508 --> 00:55:05,343
She's taking a lot of drugs.
967
00:55:07,262 --> 00:55:09,848
I was busting my ass
to do everything I could to help her,
968
00:55:09,931 --> 00:55:12,309
and she just...
she didn't appreciate none of it.
969
00:55:12,892 --> 00:55:15,061
And after everything
we had been through, and...
970
00:55:15,145 --> 00:55:18,982
and the things I helped her do,
and the secrets I kept for her,
971
00:55:20,066 --> 00:55:22,068
I was hurt. You know, I was really hurt,
972
00:55:22,152 --> 00:55:25,071
because my friend that loved me
wasn't there anymore.
973
00:55:25,155 --> 00:55:29,576
She just... There was no compassion,
no nothing in that woman anymore for me.
974
00:55:31,286 --> 00:55:32,620
[seagulls warbling]
975
00:55:33,455 --> 00:55:34,914
[Missy] So, I just... I quit.
976
00:55:37,083 --> 00:55:39,669
I went home, and I didn't...
I was done. We were done.
977
00:55:39,753 --> 00:55:41,004
[music fades]
978
00:55:42,797 --> 00:55:44,257
[clock ticking]
979
00:55:44,341 --> 00:55:46,343
[somber music playing]
980
00:55:53,433 --> 00:55:56,353
[Kelly] A couple of months
into my representing Anna,
981
00:55:57,062 --> 00:55:59,397
Howard signed a trust agreement.
982
00:55:59,898 --> 00:56:04,069
It was an effort
to control his estate taxes,
983
00:56:04,152 --> 00:56:09,074
so he could use the money in the trust
for whatever he wanted to use it for
984
00:56:09,157 --> 00:56:10,200
until he died.
985
00:56:10,950 --> 00:56:13,578
But it didn't turn out to be that for him.
986
00:56:18,416 --> 00:56:21,586
Pierce worked behind the scenes
987
00:56:22,212 --> 00:56:25,840
and stripped Howard
of all control over his own assets,
988
00:56:25,924 --> 00:56:28,676
stripped Howard of control over his life.
989
00:56:30,970 --> 00:56:33,515
Howard had bought these beautiful...
990
00:56:34,099 --> 00:56:37,185
a... a necklace, a bracelet,
and a pair of earrings...
991
00:56:38,895 --> 00:56:40,021
and gave them to Anna.
992
00:56:40,105 --> 00:56:42,357
And they were worth
over a million dollars.
993
00:56:42,941 --> 00:56:45,902
All of a sudden,
Pierce was calling up and telling her,
994
00:56:46,653 --> 00:56:49,656
"You have to take the diamonds back.
I'm not going to pay for them."
995
00:56:49,739 --> 00:56:51,908
And that's how Howard found out
996
00:56:51,991 --> 00:56:54,994
that he no longer had control
over his own money.
997
00:56:56,162 --> 00:56:58,498
Howard called me, and he said,
998
00:56:59,582 --> 00:57:04,796
"The diamonds have to go back."
And he was so sad and so broken.
999
00:57:06,005 --> 00:57:07,966
[Marshall] This is Howard Marshall.
1000
00:57:08,049 --> 00:57:13,513
I think my son Pierce
has overreached a little bit.
1001
00:57:14,055 --> 00:57:18,643
He has no business
coming between my wife and myself.
1002
00:57:19,978 --> 00:57:22,689
I want my wife...
1003
00:57:24,482 --> 00:57:28,403
to be supported by me.
1004
00:57:28,903 --> 00:57:30,655
She's the light of my life.
1005
00:57:32,991 --> 00:57:35,994
I don't think
Pierce quite understands that,
1006
00:57:36,578 --> 00:57:38,788
or maybe he's a little bit jealous.
1007
00:57:40,415 --> 00:57:43,293
I want my wife taken care of.
1008
00:57:45,712 --> 00:57:48,673
Howard went... went into a decline.
1009
00:57:48,756 --> 00:57:50,884
His health started to fail at that moment.
1010
00:57:51,551 --> 00:57:52,927
And Pierce,
1011
00:57:54,262 --> 00:57:56,598
uh, stripped Anna's ability to go see him.
1012
00:57:58,183 --> 00:58:02,145
They had to go to court in order
to get her access, visitation rights.
1013
00:58:03,646 --> 00:58:07,901
What I saw from her was
how helpless and frustrated she felt.
1014
00:58:08,443 --> 00:58:11,446
Um, and in the meantime,
she was losing everything.
1015
00:58:14,991 --> 00:58:19,537
Anna always told me that J. Howard
had promised her half of his money.
1016
00:58:21,998 --> 00:58:26,211
J. Howard Marshall, I think,
was worth about $1.6 billion.
1017
00:58:28,171 --> 00:58:32,175
And once the case started,
nothing could stop it.
1018
00:58:33,510 --> 00:58:35,512
[dramatic music playing]
1019
00:58:41,601 --> 00:58:43,144
[Kelly] She probably had no idea,
1020
00:58:43,228 --> 00:58:47,065
but she had Howard to protect her
when she came to Los Angeles.
1021
00:58:47,148 --> 00:58:50,527
She had him
to hire the people that she needed
1022
00:58:50,610 --> 00:58:54,072
to get the agents, and the PR people,
and all of the things that she needed,
1023
00:58:54,155 --> 00:58:55,490
put all the pieces in place.
1024
00:58:58,034 --> 00:59:02,080
So, she started out, uh, just roaring,
1025
00:59:02,580 --> 00:59:05,917
and, uh, I guess she learned the hard way
1026
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:10,755
about the... the cruelty
that was waiting for her.
1027
00:59:12,048 --> 00:59:13,608
[reporter] Anna, how're you holding up?
1028
00:59:14,509 --> 00:59:16,469
[camera shutters clicking]
1029
00:59:16,553 --> 00:59:19,097
It's kind of hard to comment right now.
1030
00:59:19,180 --> 00:59:20,974
[anchor] With her court schedule,
1031
00:59:21,057 --> 00:59:25,144
the grieving widow may not have time
to squeeze in many more photo shoots.
1032
00:59:26,104 --> 00:59:27,188
[Kelly] She's under siege.
1033
00:59:27,272 --> 00:59:30,149
She's been sued by many people
1034
00:59:30,233 --> 00:59:33,861
who are trying to get their hands
on her husband's money.
1035
00:59:33,945 --> 00:59:35,446
[man scoffing]
1036
00:59:35,530 --> 00:59:36,614
[indistinct chatter]
1037
00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:41,536
[anchor] Well, another crisis
for Anna Nicole Smith.
1038
00:59:41,619 --> 00:59:42,662
She says she's broke.
1039
00:59:42,745 --> 00:59:45,623
But there's more to the story
than just a shortage of cash.
1040
00:59:45,707 --> 00:59:47,333
[camera shutters clicking]
1041
00:59:47,417 --> 00:59:48,543
What are y'all doing here?
1042
00:59:48,626 --> 00:59:50,378
[reporter] We're everywhere.
You know that.
1043
00:59:50,461 --> 00:59:52,213
I came here to get rid of you guys...
1044
00:59:52,297 --> 00:59:54,775
- [reporter] Don't say that!
- ...so I could have a quiet evening.
1045
00:59:54,799 --> 00:59:57,760
- [reporter 2] You're our favorite.
- [reporter] You'll hurt our feelings.
1046
00:59:57,844 --> 01:00:00,513
I'm your favorite.
What you put in the paper is mean.
1047
01:00:00,597 --> 01:00:03,474
[reporter] No! We didn't put anything!
We take great pictures!
1048
01:00:03,558 --> 01:00:07,020
No. Because you y'all turning this thing...
No. Let me make a statement.
1049
01:00:07,103 --> 01:00:08,789
- [reporter] Okay.
- Let me make a statement.
1050
01:00:08,813 --> 01:00:12,066
I was being all sweet to you guys,
and y'all screwed me over.
1051
01:00:12,150 --> 01:00:12,984
[reporter 1] No.
1052
01:00:13,067 --> 01:00:15,421
- Yeah, y'all did.
- [reporter 2] We never tell them anything.
1053
01:00:15,445 --> 01:00:18,156
- [man] We can't help what TV people say.
- I love you guys.
1054
01:00:18,239 --> 01:00:19,699
I will continue to love you guys
1055
01:00:19,782 --> 01:00:22,201
until y'all fuck with me
like you did the other night.
1056
01:00:22,285 --> 01:00:24,162
[reporter] Thank you for supporting us.
1057
01:00:24,871 --> 01:00:26,372
[Anna] Put this in your paper.
1058
01:00:27,040 --> 01:00:28,916
[reporter] Oh yeah, that's great.
1059
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:33,504
This is Anna Nicole at her best.
And I'm at my best, so...
1060
01:00:33,588 --> 01:00:34,908
It's sad but true that, you know,
1061
01:00:34,964 --> 01:00:38,801
when someone does come off the rails
like this, and particularly with drugs,
1062
01:00:39,427 --> 01:00:41,054
people back away very quickly.
1063
01:00:41,137 --> 01:00:44,098
[sputtering] William Morris
dumped her as... as a client.
1064
01:00:44,182 --> 01:00:47,769
You... You had some fashion contracts
don't want to be associated with it.
1065
01:00:47,852 --> 01:00:50,647
You know, no one really wants
to be that close to it.
1066
01:00:50,730 --> 01:00:52,899
[reporter] Can we get
a couple of pictures, Anna?
1067
01:00:52,982 --> 01:00:55,526
[Kevin] So when you're actually
probably most in need,
1068
01:00:55,610 --> 01:01:00,114
you're finding the people around you are...
are shying away and shooing you away.
1069
01:01:00,198 --> 01:01:01,884
- ...get a couple pictures?
- [man] Go ahead.
1070
01:01:01,908 --> 01:01:04,160
- All right then.
- [man] Anna, please?
1071
01:01:04,243 --> 01:01:06,245
[reporters clamoring]
1072
01:01:06,329 --> 01:01:08,206
[ominous music playing]
1073
01:01:09,374 --> 01:01:13,878
She kept looking
for somebody else to save her. [chuckling]
1074
01:01:13,961 --> 01:01:15,505
[crowd clamoring]
1075
01:01:17,256 --> 01:01:18,376
[woman] What are they doing?
1076
01:01:18,424 --> 01:01:20,304
- Jim, get the car.
- [reporter] Anna, this way.
1077
01:01:20,385 --> 01:01:23,221
[Kelly] That's when Howard Stern came in.
1078
01:01:24,514 --> 01:01:26,867
[reporter] Anna, with the gentleman?
What's the gentleman...
1079
01:01:26,891 --> 01:01:28,810
- The gentleman...
- [reporter] What's his name?
1080
01:01:28,893 --> 01:01:30,395
The gentleman is Howard.
1081
01:01:30,478 --> 01:01:31,998
- I'm her lawyer.
- And he's my lawyer.
1082
01:01:32,063 --> 01:01:33,624
- [reporter] Oh, you're kidding me.
- No.
1083
01:01:33,648 --> 01:01:36,208
- So y'all are all fucked.
- [reporter] Oh, we're in trouble now!
1084
01:01:38,653 --> 01:01:42,573
Bizarrely, we... we knew him, because he had
an office in the same building as us,
1085
01:01:42,657 --> 01:01:45,217
so occasionally, we would ride
in the elevator going up and down.
1086
01:01:45,284 --> 01:01:46,703
[camera shutters clicking]
1087
01:01:46,786 --> 01:01:48,454
[indistinct chatter]
1088
01:01:48,538 --> 01:01:49,872
[Kevin] He learned how it worked.
1089
01:01:49,956 --> 01:01:52,709
And... And he also understood,
not just the publicity,
1090
01:01:52,792 --> 01:01:54,335
but the flow of money as well.
1091
01:01:55,211 --> 01:01:57,755
He knew, uh, how he could cash in on that.
1092
01:01:58,881 --> 01:02:00,508
[man talking indistinctly]
1093
01:02:01,008 --> 01:02:03,010
[indistinct chatter]
1094
01:02:05,388 --> 01:02:07,724
Come on, Anna. Anna, that's enough.
1095
01:02:08,933 --> 01:02:10,653
[reporter] It's right here.
It's right here.
1096
01:02:10,685 --> 01:02:15,314
[Kelly] My impression was
that he was kind of a low-level attorney,
1097
01:02:15,398 --> 01:02:17,066
who was looking for a big payday,
1098
01:02:17,150 --> 01:02:20,153
and he thought he was gonna move
into this established case,
1099
01:02:20,236 --> 01:02:22,363
take it over, and take the money.
1100
01:02:22,447 --> 01:02:24,490
[indistinct chatter]
1101
01:02:26,993 --> 01:02:29,430
[RuPaul] You married the man.
He wanted you to have the money.
1102
01:02:29,454 --> 01:02:32,206
I know you can't talk about that.
Give her the damn money!
1103
01:02:32,290 --> 01:02:33,666
[audience cheering]
1104
01:02:33,750 --> 01:02:35,084
Show me the money!
1105
01:02:35,877 --> 01:02:39,380
Everyone in America really cares
about Anna, whether, uh, you know...
1106
01:02:39,464 --> 01:02:41,466
A lot of people in the press slam her,
1107
01:02:41,549 --> 01:02:45,052
but I tell you, go from house to house,
all over America, everybody loves her.
1108
01:02:45,136 --> 01:02:47,388
Everybody has a soft spot
for the underdog.
1109
01:02:47,472 --> 01:02:51,434
So I believe that Anna should get
whatever the hell she wants.
1110
01:02:52,059 --> 01:02:53,686
- [chuckling] Thank you.
- It's true!
1111
01:02:54,771 --> 01:02:56,481
Just wish I could. [chuckling nervously]
1112
01:02:56,981 --> 01:02:58,608
[camera shutter clicks]
1113
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:04,781
[anchor] Anna Nicole Smith walked
into the courtroom
1114
01:03:04,864 --> 01:03:09,202
with a fuchsia knit sweater on
and a picture of her husband close by.
1115
01:03:09,285 --> 01:03:12,246
She took the witness stand
and talked about the love of her life.
1116
01:03:12,914 --> 01:03:16,125
He was just a brilliant, great,
wonderful, wonderful man
1117
01:03:16,209 --> 01:03:18,127
that I loved deeply.
1118
01:03:18,211 --> 01:03:23,049
It wasn't a sexual, "Baby, oh baby,
I love your body" type love.
1119
01:03:23,132 --> 01:03:27,720
It was a deep thank you
for taking me out of this hole,
1120
01:03:28,805 --> 01:03:32,391
and thank you
for saving my life and my son's life,
1121
01:03:32,475 --> 01:03:34,352
and thank you for taking care of us.
1122
01:03:35,102 --> 01:03:38,356
That's the kind of love
that me and my husband had for each other.
1123
01:03:39,273 --> 01:03:41,275
[melancholy music playing]
1124
01:03:43,194 --> 01:03:45,863
[man] He thought if he gave her
enough money during his lifetime,
1125
01:03:45,947 --> 01:03:49,700
I think he probably gave her $14 million
during the course of their relationship
1126
01:03:49,784 --> 01:03:51,544
to try to get her in business
and everything,
1127
01:03:52,245 --> 01:03:55,998
she would ultimately have plenty
when he died.
1128
01:03:56,082 --> 01:04:00,503
The month before he died,
he realized she was a totally lost cause.
1129
01:04:00,586 --> 01:04:03,214
He'd given her all this money,
and she had none left.
1130
01:04:03,881 --> 01:04:05,641
He loved her.
There's no question about that.
1131
01:04:06,884 --> 01:04:10,847
But Pierce knew his father
did not promise her half of the estate.
1132
01:04:11,347 --> 01:04:14,141
And quite frankly,
we shouldn't give her a dime.
1133
01:04:14,225 --> 01:04:17,728
And the reason is
her entire case is built on a lie.
1134
01:04:17,812 --> 01:04:22,024
[anchor] In court, Pierce Marshall's side
is predicting some bombshells.
1135
01:04:22,108 --> 01:04:26,529
His lawyers say they will not be shy
about dredging through Anna Nicole's past.
1136
01:04:28,072 --> 01:04:31,909
[Rusty] That jury,
13 out of 16 of them were women.
1137
01:04:31,993 --> 01:04:33,160
[inaudible]
1138
01:04:33,244 --> 01:04:37,957
[Rusty] It was very clear that most women
were going to side with Anna Nicole,
1139
01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:39,667
at least as we started out.
1140
01:04:40,167 --> 01:04:43,087
And the reason was
they believed and said to us,
1141
01:04:43,170 --> 01:04:45,965
"Any man foolish enough
to put himself in that situation
1142
01:04:46,048 --> 01:04:47,928
deserves pretty much
whatever was gonna happen."
1143
01:04:48,467 --> 01:04:52,054
And so, the whole goal
was to change that mindset.
1144
01:05:00,771 --> 01:05:04,233
Going after her
was never going to be the right approach.
1145
01:05:04,317 --> 01:05:06,903
The better approach was always gonna be
1146
01:05:06,986 --> 01:05:09,864
let her reveal herself
through her own words.
1147
01:05:10,531 --> 01:05:12,909
The jury has to reach their conclusion
on their own.
1148
01:05:14,493 --> 01:05:15,493
Your Honor...
1149
01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:21,208
She's talking, and she's asking questions,
and she's crying and looking to the jury.
1150
01:05:21,292 --> 01:05:25,296
And of course, she's looking to nine women
who should be sympathetic to her.
1151
01:05:25,379 --> 01:05:28,883
Well, I had seen a couple of movies
that she had made,
1152
01:05:28,966 --> 01:05:32,845
which she would never have been,
in those movies, able to cry on demand.
1153
01:05:33,429 --> 01:05:35,514
So, honest to God, it was not prepared.
1154
01:05:35,598 --> 01:05:38,601
It wasn't anticipated.
It just occurred to me. I go...
1155
01:05:38,684 --> 01:05:39,727
Ms. Marshall...
1156
01:05:40,519 --> 01:05:42,939
have you been taking new acting lessons?
1157
01:05:43,022 --> 01:05:44,690
[crying] Screw you, Rusty.
1158
01:05:44,774 --> 01:05:46,359
[people laughing]
1159
01:05:46,943 --> 01:05:48,486
And then we were off to the races.
1160
01:05:48,569 --> 01:05:53,157
You gotta buy a gown. You gotta buy shoes.
You gotta, uh, pay hair and makeup.
1161
01:05:53,240 --> 01:05:57,912
I mean, it's very expensive to be me.
I mean, it's terrible the things...
1162
01:05:57,995 --> 01:05:59,538
[Rusty] She was giving answers
1163
01:06:00,289 --> 01:06:02,959
that the average person
would consider ludicrous.
1164
01:06:03,042 --> 01:06:04,293
[camera shutter clicking]
1165
01:06:05,002 --> 01:06:06,754
And it did not matter
1166
01:06:06,837 --> 01:06:12,051
whether it was alcohol,
or sex, or drugs, or food.
1167
01:06:12,843 --> 01:06:13,928
She was a glutton.
1168
01:06:15,596 --> 01:06:19,183
The verdict ends up
they answer all our questions favorably.
1169
01:06:19,266 --> 01:06:21,894
Anna Nicole was found
not to be entitled to anything.
1170
01:06:21,978 --> 01:06:23,646
She received nothing from the trial.
1171
01:06:23,729 --> 01:06:26,399
So the verdict was a resounding victory
for Pierce.

because she was a gold digger.
1174
01:06:35,533 --> 01:06:37,910

just to follow their dreams, you know?

They can come true.
1182
01:07:31,380 --> 01:07:32,715

Under the bed?

1187
01:08:01,077 --> 01:08:02,620
[Ozzy] I'll put it under the bed.
1188
01:08:04,497 --> 01:08:07,833
[man] The Osbournes
was a massive hit for MTV.
1189
01:08:07,917 --> 01:08:10,377
So the executives
at E! Entertainment realized,
1190
01:08:10,461 --> 01:08:12,505
"Maybe we can do a reality show."
1191
01:08:12,588 --> 01:08:16,258
They knew Anna Nicole was someone
that their audience really liked.

[seagulls warbling]
1193
01:08:17,593 --> 01:08:20,137
[Ashley] She said,
"They'll follow me night and day."
1194
01:08:20,721 --> 01:08:22,765
"They'll just live in my house with me."
1195
01:08:22,848 --> 01:08:26,060
"And everybody can be in it, Daniel and..."
1196
01:08:26,143 --> 01:08:29,271
"Howard wants me to do it.
He... He'll be in it. And..."
1197
01:08:29,855 --> 01:08:32,858
"Nobody's talking about me.
I'm not in the news at all right now."
1198
01:08:33,442 --> 01:08:36,320
"I wanted your advice.
What do you think? Think I should do it?"
1199
01:08:37,279 --> 01:08:41,534
And I said, "Well, no,
I don't think you should do it."
1200
01:08:41,617 --> 01:08:43,994
I mean, immediately, that was...
She said, "Why?"
1201
01:08:44,078 --> 01:08:48,374
I said, "Because they're gonna make money
by making fun of you."
1202
01:08:49,959 --> 01:08:51,210
She said, "Well,
1203
01:08:52,419 --> 01:08:53,419

[Mitchell laughing]
1224
01:09:54,607 --> 01:09:56,442
[Mitchell] We kind of exchanged details,
1225
01:09:56,525 --> 01:09:59,945
and if I was in LA,
I would come to the house and hang out.
1226
01:10:00,029 --> 01:10:02,948
Otherwise, we would talk on the phone
and things like that,
1227
01:10:03,574 --> 01:10:05,910
but I would actually be curious
to know, like,
1228
01:10:05,993 --> 01:10:10,664
how many really deep friendships Anna had.
1229
01:10:11,665 --> 01:10:15,252
[man] Anna didn't need
a personal assistant. She needed a friend.
1230
01:10:15,753 --> 01:10:20,090
Calling it a personal assistant
was more PC than saying...
1231

[smacks lips]
"I'm really fucking lonely and depressed,
1232

and I can't make it through the day

1233
01:10:25,554 --> 01:10:26,805
She goes,
1234
01:10:27,932 --> 01:10:29,850
"You're not like the others, are you?"
1235
01:10:30,768 --> 01:10:31,768
I go...
1236
01:10:32,353 --> 01:10:35,481
I'm looking around thinking like,
"I don't know. Who's... Who's the others?"
1237
01:10:35,564 --> 01:10:36,649
"I'm not sure."
1238
01:10:37,316 --> 01:10:41,278
Anna and I became very, very close.
1239
01:10:41,362 --> 01:10:43,405
I don't wanna say
more so than Pol' and Anna.
1240
01:10:43,489 --> 01:10:47,576
But we had
that really intimate, special bond
1241
01:10:47,660 --> 01:10:48,869
that nobody could break.
1242
01:10:49,370 --> 01:10:50,746
Anna always made me feel that...
1243
01:10:50,829 --> 01:10:53,207
that I was the only one
that she was talking to.
1244
01:10:53,290 --> 01:10:55,876
She trusted me with information
and told me things
1245
01:10:55,960 --> 01:10:59,380
that you wouldn't think
she probably told hardly anybody.
1246
01:10:59,463 --> 01:11:02,132
She didn't like to talk
about her childhood.
1247
01:11:02,216 --> 01:11:04,218
[wind whooshing]
1248
01:11:05,511 --> 01:11:09,807
She liked to talk
about how much she hated her family.
1249
01:11:10,683 --> 01:11:13,686
[Pol'] She would always tell me
about her mother.

Anna Nicole hated her mother.
1251
01:11:17,815 --> 01:11:20,234
The only thing I knew
that Anna ever wanted to do
1252
01:11:20,317 --> 01:11:22,444
was never to be like Virgie.
1253
01:11:22,528 --> 01:11:26,448
She made sure that
she was there for Daniel all the time.
1254
01:11:27,032 --> 01:11:29,618
The world would stop for Daniel.

he was...

everything I wasn't expecting.

[Nathan] Daniel was smart. He was humble.
1262
01:11:47,219 --> 01:11:50,514
I think he was getting
a lot of bullying at school.
1263
01:11:50,597 --> 01:11:53,017
You know, like,
"I saw your mom's tits today."
1264
01:11:53,100 --> 01:11:55,853
Or whatever they would say
about his mom. And it's like... [chuckles]
1265
01:11:55,936 --> 01:11:57,938
[Anna] That's my son. Isn't he cute?
1266
01:11:58,605 --> 01:12:01,442
[Nathan] And it made him shy away
from people.
1267
01:12:02,526 --> 01:12:04,611
Nobody came over for him.

I think I've missed maybe one episode.
1270
01:12:11,618 --> 01:12:14,788
[sighing] I... I think that,
you know, the son...
1271
01:12:15,456 --> 01:12:16,749
I... I feel bad for him.
1272
01:12:17,291 --> 01:12:20,836
Yes, that's a definite. I feel bad
for the son and the dog. [chuckling]

- I think they're both being abused.

01:12:26,550 --> 01:12:28,635
I know she keeps saying
that she's not on anything.
1276
01:12:28,719 --> 01:12:30,179
I think she is on something.
1277
01:12:30,262 --> 01:12:32,556
- [reporter] What's going on, Anna?
- Oh, not much.
1278
01:12:32,639 --> 01:12:34,659
- [reporter] How you doing?
- I'm doing wonderfully.
1279
01:12:34,683 --> 01:12:36,523
- [reporter] It's good to see you.
- Thank you.
1280
01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:37,895
[Howard] And I also get that,
1281
01:12:37,978 --> 01:12:39,938
for some reason,
she doesn't think she's heavy.
1282
01:12:40,022 --> 01:12:42,483
I would say
she weighs 300 pounds at least.
1283
01:12:42,566 --> 01:12:46,278
I'll bet you 100 bucks she's not over 300,
but it's gonna be so close.
1284
01:12:46,362 --> 01:12:48,197
I think she's probably 280 or 290.
1285
01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:49,924
[Howard] All right, let's... let's do this.
1286
01:12:49,948 --> 01:12:52,910
The person who comes closest
within five pounds of her weight...
1287
01:12:53,619 --> 01:12:55,079
We'll have a pool.
1288
01:12:55,162 --> 01:12:58,916
[woman] She was devastated
by what the media was saying about her.
1289
01:12:58,999 --> 01:13:02,378
I mean, they were,
you know basically calling her a fat pig.
1290
01:13:03,379 --> 01:13:08,217
She told me that basically
from the time she was going to Playboy
1291
01:13:08,801 --> 01:13:12,388
that... that literally
everybody was always telling her
1292
01:13:12,471 --> 01:13:13,511
she needed to lose weight.
1293
01:13:13,555 --> 01:13:15,182
She always needed to lose that weight.
1294
01:13:15,265 --> 01:13:17,601
And so she ended up
having an eating disorder.
1295
01:13:19,353 --> 01:13:21,772
She didn't see herself as beautiful.
1296
01:13:22,564 --> 01:13:24,733
Even in her own perfection,
1297
01:13:25,359 --> 01:13:27,236
she didn't see herself as beautiful
1298
01:13:27,319 --> 01:13:31,240
because she didn't feel beautiful inside.
1299
01:13:31,824 --> 01:13:34,743

was a diet supplement company.

01:13:53,262 --> 01:13:55,597
They had created some diet pills
1306
01:13:55,681 --> 01:13:59,226
that, you know,
they negotiated Anna to represent.

01:13:59,309 --> 01:14:00,602
[Anna giggling]
1308
01:14:00,686 --> 01:14:04,022
[Bonnie] Anna wanted to lose weight.
I said, "Well, I'm gonna come over."
1309
01:14:04,106 --> 01:14:06,567
"We're gonna exercise.
We're gonna do yoga."
1310
01:14:06,650 --> 01:14:07,734
She's like, "Okay."
1311
01:14:08,235 --> 01:14:12,072
She probably lost
at least 25 to 30 pounds.
1312
01:14:13,449 --> 01:14:14,992
But then what happened was
1313
01:14:15,075 --> 01:14:17,953
Anna was getting antsy,
and she wanted all the weight off.
1314
01:14:18,537 --> 01:14:22,332
And about a month later,
the assistant called me up and said,
1315
01:14:22,416 --> 01:14:24,543
"You need to come over.
Please come over now."
1316
01:14:25,419 --> 01:14:27,504
"I'm really, really worried about Anna."
1317
01:14:29,882 --> 01:14:33,135
Anna was in bed. She had no makeup on.
1318
01:14:33,719 --> 01:14:36,805
And there was a white ring,
1319
01:14:36,889 --> 01:14:40,767
I mean white, like a white sheet,
around her mouth.
1320
01:14:41,268 --> 01:14:42,728
And it was dehydration.
1321
01:14:42,811 --> 01:14:46,190
She hadn't eaten anything
since the day that I left.
1322
01:14:46,273 --> 01:14:50,777
And she was drinking, like,
maybe two inches of water a day
1323
01:14:50,861 --> 01:14:53,197
and taking, um...
1324
01:14:53,280 --> 01:14:54,573
[smack lips] ...a diuretic.
1325
01:14:54,656 --> 01:14:57,242
And I said, "Can I get a doctor here?"
1326
01:14:57,326 --> 01:14:58,326
"No."
1327
01:14:59,161 --> 01:15:02,247
"You need intravenous.

[anchor] ...and her lipstick looked
slopped on.
1331
01:15:10,214 --> 01:15:13,091
[Bonnie] I had water with a straw
that I was giving her.
1332
01:15:13,175 --> 01:15:15,177
[somber music playing]
1333
01:15:16,094 --> 01:15:18,597
[Bonnie] And I'm like,
"You can never do this to yourself again
1334
01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:20,849
because you won't live the next time."
1335
01:15:20,933 --> 01:15:22,351
And she said, "I know."
1336
01:15:23,977 --> 01:15:25,646
She said, "I know." [sniffling]
1337
01:15:27,105 --> 01:15:28,774
[inaudible]
1338
01:15:28,857 --> 01:15:32,402
I know that that day,
that I saved Anna's life.
1339
01:15:32,486 --> 01:15:33,529
I know I did.
1340
01:15:35,572 --> 01:15:37,783
[inaudible]
1341
01:15:37,866 --> 01:15:39,868
[ad music playing]
1342
01:15:41,912 --> 01:15:43,330
[rock music playing]
1343
01:15:43,413 --> 01:15:44,748
Hi! Hi.
1344
01:15:44,831 --> 01:15:45,999
[crowd clamoring]
1345
01:15:46,083 --> 01:15:48,710
Thank you. I'm back. [chuckling]
1346
01:15:50,128 --> 01:15:51,338
[woman] You look unbelievable.
1347
01:15:51,421 --> 01:15:54,258
- [man] Come on, Anna.
- [woman] You look amazing.
1348
01:15:54,341 --> 01:15:56,385
[announcer] Get the attention you deserve.
1349
01:15:56,468 --> 01:15:58,845
- [man] Over here, Anna!
- [man 2] Anna! How did you do it?
1350
01:15:58,929 --> 01:16:01,056
TrimSpa, baby!
1351
01:16:01,139 --> 01:16:04,476
[announcer] Anna,
the ultimate comeback. Make yours.
1352
01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:07,896
1-800-TRIMSPA or Trimspa.com.
1353
01:16:07,980 --> 01:16:09,273
[dramatic music playing]
1354
01:16:11,149 --> 01:16:12,776
[camera shutters clicking]
1355
01:16:14,152 --> 01:16:16,488
TrimSpa went crazy.
1356
01:16:16,572 --> 01:16:18,574
- [reporters clamoring]
- [woman] Anna!
1357
01:16:18,657 --> 01:16:20,284
[Bonnie] That was her comeback.
1358
01:16:22,244 --> 01:16:23,284
[man] Just one per person.
1359
01:16:23,328 --> 01:16:25,539
Okay, one per person, guys.
One per person.
1360
01:16:26,164 --> 01:16:27,416
[man 2] Anna.
1361
01:16:27,499 --> 01:16:28,959
[indistinct chatter]
1362
01:16:32,170 --> 01:16:34,590
[man] My name is Maurice Brighthaupt.
1363
01:16:34,673 --> 01:16:36,508
People know me as Big Moe.
1364
01:16:37,175 --> 01:16:40,637
And I was Anna Nicole Smith's bodyguard.
1365
01:16:42,306 --> 01:16:45,225
In the beginning, I think she tested me
1366
01:16:45,309 --> 01:16:47,894
to see if I was trustworthy
to be with her.
1367
01:16:49,187 --> 01:16:52,608
She'd say, "You... Do you like my body?
You think I'm beautiful?"
1368
01:16:52,691 --> 01:16:56,111
"Would you like to, you know,
see where we can go with this?"
1369
01:16:56,612 --> 01:16:58,572
And I looked at her
dead in the eye and said,
1370
01:16:58,655 --> 01:17:01,908
"Right now, I really think of you
as a little sister."
1371
01:17:02,576 --> 01:17:05,245
And she shed a little tear.
She said, "You know what?"
1372
01:17:06,038 --> 01:17:07,456
"I'm so glad I met you."
1373
01:17:08,582 --> 01:17:12,711
After about two days of working with her,
I started calling her baby girl.
1374
01:17:12,794 --> 01:17:15,339
And from that point on,
she called me Momo.
1375
01:17:15,422 --> 01:17:17,466
[reporter 1] Get back. Get back. Anna!
1376
01:17:17,549 --> 01:17:19,301
[crowd clamoring]
1377
01:17:20,052 --> 01:17:21,637
[reporter 2] Anna! Way over here!
1378
01:17:21,720 --> 01:17:22,721
[reporter 3] Anna!
1379
01:17:23,513 --> 01:17:26,099
[Maurice] She had to present Kanye West
with the award
1380
01:17:26,183 --> 01:17:28,352
at the American Music Awards.
1381
01:17:28,435 --> 01:17:32,939
And before she went on stage,
Howard and her was talking,
1382
01:17:33,023 --> 01:17:36,818
and I said, "This is gonna be great.
You're gonna be on stage."
1383
01:17:40,530 --> 01:17:41,531
"Be yourself."
1384
01:17:42,157 --> 01:17:44,284
And that's when she sat back and thought,
1385
01:17:45,369 --> 01:17:49,665
"Wow, I'm going to do something
that everyone will always remember."
1386
01:17:50,207 --> 01:17:52,042
[announcer] Anna Nicole Smith.
1387
01:17:52,125 --> 01:17:53,710
[crowd cheering, applauding]
1388
01:17:53,794 --> 01:17:55,545
[show music playing]
1389
01:17:56,338 --> 01:17:57,673
[Maurice] She got up on stage
1390
01:17:57,756 --> 01:18:00,258
and looked like
maybe a little high or drunk.
1391
01:18:03,095 --> 01:18:06,014
That was Anna.
Anna knew how to work the crowd.
1392
01:18:06,098 --> 01:18:07,724
[crowd cheering]
1393
01:18:07,808 --> 01:18:14,690
[slurring] And if I ever record an album,
I want this guy to produce mine.
1394
01:18:14,773 --> 01:18:19,069
Make me beautiful duets!
1395
01:18:19,736 --> 01:18:24,491
'Cause he's freaking genius!
1396
01:18:24,574 --> 01:18:26,576
[crowd cheering loudly]
1397
01:18:31,081 --> 01:18:35,043
[Maurice] Once she got off the stage,
the first thing she did, looked at Howard,
1398
01:18:35,544 --> 01:18:36,545
"How did I do?"
1399
01:18:38,839 --> 01:18:41,425
Off the camera,
and we was all by ourselves,
1400
01:18:41,508 --> 01:18:42,759
Anna was with it.
1401
01:18:42,843 --> 01:18:44,821
- [reporters clamoring]
- [camera shutters clicking]
1402
01:18:44,845 --> 01:18:45,887
[Maurice] And after that,
1403
01:18:45,971 --> 01:18:49,307
we got so many other speaking engagements
to go to.
1404
01:18:50,308 --> 01:18:52,018
[Anna] It's crazy.
1405
01:18:52,644 --> 01:18:54,229
It's totally crazy.
1406
01:18:54,312 --> 01:18:58,483
Everyone out of the blue is calling.
Calling, calling, calling.
1407
01:18:58,567 --> 01:19:01,987
And I didn't even have to do a...
a sex tape.
1408
01:19:02,070 --> 01:19:04,030
And I'm getting all this attention,
1409
01:19:04,114 --> 01:19:06,158
and I'm like, "Oh my God."
1410
01:19:06,908 --> 01:19:11,163
I'm like, "Wow!
I should, like, flub a line more often."
1411
01:19:11,246 --> 01:19:13,540
[chuckling] It's like, "Whoa!"
1412
01:19:15,041 --> 01:19:17,419
[Maurice] Everything would go
through Howard.
1413
01:19:17,502 --> 01:19:22,549
But ultimately, it was her decision
whether or not she would take the offers.
1414
01:19:24,342 --> 01:19:25,761
Anna knew how to work it.
1415
01:19:25,844 --> 01:19:27,471
[inaudible]
1416
01:19:28,054 --> 01:19:29,639
[Maurice] There's a saying out there
1417
01:19:29,723 --> 01:19:32,142
that said that Howard
was controlling everything.
1418
01:19:32,225 --> 01:19:33,977
[inaudible]
1419
01:19:34,060 --> 01:19:36,438
Howard did not control everything.
1420
01:19:37,773 --> 01:19:39,566
Anna was in control of everything.
1421
01:19:40,734 --> 01:19:44,196
If she thought that anybody
was trying to control her,
1422
01:19:44,279 --> 01:19:46,490
she would get rid of them, point-blank.
1423
01:19:47,324 --> 01:19:48,909
[bell ringing]
1424
01:19:48,992 --> 01:19:51,411
- [gun firing]
- [announcer speaking indistinctly]
1425
01:19:51,495 --> 01:19:53,079
[horses galloping]
1426
01:19:54,206 --> 01:19:55,665
[dramatic music playing]
1427
01:19:56,541 --> 01:19:57,584
[man laughing]
1428
01:19:59,628 --> 01:20:01,755
[Kevin] Larry Birkhead was a photographer
1429
01:20:01,838 --> 01:20:05,133
and met Anna Nicole for the first time
at the Kentucky Derby.
1430
01:20:05,217 --> 01:20:06,217
Kiss me.
1431
01:20:06,885 --> 01:20:08,720
[Kevin] He was extremely polite.
1432
01:20:09,221 --> 01:20:11,223
That's going above the bed,
right there. [laughs]
1433
01:20:11,306 --> 01:20:16,102
Larry knew already the power
of the celebrity pictures.
1434
01:20:16,186 --> 01:20:17,729
[camera shutter clicking]
1435
01:20:17,813 --> 01:20:19,981
And so as soon as
he met Anna Nicole Smith,
1436
01:20:20,065 --> 01:20:21,650
the light bulb went off above his head,
1437
01:20:21,733 --> 01:20:24,444
and he was like,
"Ooh, this could be quite lucrative."
1438
01:20:29,616 --> 01:20:34,663
I met Larry Birkhead for the first time
when they all came to New York City.
1439
01:20:34,746 --> 01:20:40,043
And Larry was there and... and kind of
introduced as her photographer...
1440
01:20:40,126 --> 01:20:41,127
[inhales deeply]
1441
01:20:41,211 --> 01:20:44,130
...but it was pretty obvious
that he was maybe more than that.
1442
01:20:44,756 --> 01:20:48,718
And I also knew
that she was, at that time,
1443
01:20:48,802 --> 01:20:51,763
kind of wanting to be pregnant
and to have a baby.
1444
01:20:51,847 --> 01:20:55,183
So, my mind of course went there to,
1445
01:20:55,267 --> 01:20:59,521
"Oh, this is probably
who she hopes will father her child."
1446
01:20:59,604 --> 01:21:00,605
[camera shutter clicking]
1447
01:21:01,189 --> 01:21:03,400
I was in LA for something,
and I went to visit.
1448
01:21:03,483 --> 01:21:07,863
He was kind of there,
and they were trying to have a child.
1449
01:21:07,946 --> 01:21:11,992
Um, but he wasn't staying in her room.
He was kind of... kind of had his own room.
1450
01:21:12,576 --> 01:21:14,619
Um... [scoffing] ...yeah.
1451
01:21:14,703 --> 01:21:17,289
- [camera shutter clicks]
- [somber music playing]
1452
01:21:17,998 --> 01:21:23,670
[Mitchell] But I heard the details
of what she was looking for in a father.
1453
01:21:25,463 --> 01:21:28,425
Like, "You won't have visitation rights,
or be paid money,
1454
01:21:28,508 --> 01:21:31,553
or be able to legally say
that the child is yours."
1455
01:21:31,636 --> 01:21:34,389
There were some pretty strict parameters
1456
01:21:34,472 --> 01:21:39,227
surrounding, um, you know,
her having a child with somebody.
1457
01:21:43,607 --> 01:21:47,360
So I figured he was on that same page.
1458
01:21:55,744 --> 01:21:56,745
[light switch clicking]
1459
01:21:57,370 --> 01:21:58,455
[objects clattering]
1460
01:22:01,708 --> 01:22:06,379
[man] In 2004,
I took over a practice in Studio City.
1461
01:22:06,463 --> 01:22:08,256
[footsteps approaching]
1462
01:22:08,340 --> 01:22:09,507
[door opening]
1463
01:22:10,467 --> 01:22:11,468
[door closing]
1464
01:22:12,344 --> 01:22:15,555
I was really not interested
in... in a celebrity practice.
1465
01:22:15,639 --> 01:22:18,016
I mean, you know,
most of my patients were older.
1466
01:22:19,100 --> 01:22:23,229
The doctor before me said,
"Have you heard of Anna Nicole Smith?"
1467
01:22:23,313 --> 01:22:25,190
"I see her for chronic pain."
1468
01:22:25,815 --> 01:22:27,943
"She's very, um, manipulative,
1469
01:22:28,026 --> 01:22:32,656
and she's... and she can charm you and try...
Just don't get caught in that."
1470
01:22:33,365 --> 01:22:35,158
[contemplative music playing]
1471
01:22:35,241 --> 01:22:37,577
[Dr. Kapoor] She had had many ailments
over the past,
1472
01:22:37,661 --> 01:22:41,289
including various things
like fibromyalgia.
1473
01:22:41,373 --> 01:22:45,210
Um, uh, she'd had significant, like,
different back pains.
1474
01:22:47,504 --> 01:22:49,255
She had some chest pain.
1475
01:22:50,465 --> 01:22:53,593
A breast implant that was ruptured
and had to be repaired.
1476
01:22:56,054 --> 01:23:01,768
And when there was, uh, emotional issues
that were happening to her,
1477
01:23:01,851 --> 01:23:03,603
um, her pain was worse.
1478
01:23:03,687 --> 01:23:04,562
[reporter] Anna.
1479
01:23:04,646 --> 01:23:06,064
[reporters clamoring]
1480
01:23:06,147 --> 01:23:07,827
[Dr. Kapoor] What you see
in the public eye
1481
01:23:07,899 --> 01:23:10,819
is this bubbly, vivacious,
1482
01:23:10,902 --> 01:23:13,822
uh, this, you know,
bombshell type of thing.
1483
01:23:13,905 --> 01:23:16,366
But behind the scenes, um,
1484
01:23:17,409 --> 01:23:19,077
it's a different story.
1485
01:23:19,160 --> 01:23:20,495
[man laughing]
1486
01:23:21,454 --> 01:23:22,814
[Dr. Kapoor] She was on methadone,
1487
01:23:22,872 --> 01:23:25,667
which was the pain medicine
that worked for her.
1488
01:23:27,293 --> 01:23:30,255
This is a medicine that is...
is, uh, always known
1489
01:23:30,338 --> 01:23:33,049
as people that are addicted to heroin.
1490
01:23:33,842 --> 01:23:36,882
So people would look at it and say,
"Well, she must've been a heroin addict."
1491
01:23:43,685 --> 01:23:46,479
She said,
"Um, don't worry about the doses."
1492
01:23:46,563 --> 01:23:49,607
"I'm like a horse.
I can take a lot of medicine."
1493
01:23:51,901 --> 01:23:54,487
"It takes me a lot to have the effect."
1494
01:23:59,617 --> 01:24:00,452
[dog barking]
1495
01:24:00,535 --> 01:24:04,998
Hi, it's me, Anna Nicole, as you can see.
1496
01:24:05,582 --> 01:24:08,293
I've been hearing a lot of gossip
in the papers.
1497
01:24:08,376 --> 01:24:12,714
"Is Anna pregnant? She's pregnant.
She's pregnant by some guy."
1498
01:24:14,174 --> 01:24:17,343
Well, let me stop all the rumors.
1499
01:24:17,427 --> 01:24:20,055
Yes, I am pregnant.
1500
01:24:20,889 --> 01:24:23,475
I, uh, I'm happy.
1501
01:24:23,558 --> 01:24:25,351
I'm very, very happy about it.
1502
01:24:25,435 --> 01:24:27,729
I'll let you see me as I'm growing.
1503
01:24:27,812 --> 01:24:30,690
So, that's it at this time.
1504
01:24:31,399 --> 01:24:32,399
Bye.
1505
01:24:32,984 --> 01:24:34,360
[suspenseful music playing]
1506
01:24:34,444 --> 01:24:36,821
So one day, Anna sent me an email,
1507
01:24:36,905 --> 01:24:41,159
and she said,
"Guess what? You're gonna be an aunt!"
1508
01:24:41,242 --> 01:24:42,702
[Mitchell laughing]
1509
01:24:42,786 --> 01:24:47,624
So she said,
"Howard, you can be the father."
1510
01:24:47,707 --> 01:24:49,084
"We'll do this together."
1511
01:24:50,752 --> 01:24:52,462
Just think of how beautifully that worked.
1512
01:24:52,545 --> 01:24:54,214
I mean, this is her attorney,
1513
01:24:55,090 --> 01:24:56,841
who is a friend.
1514
01:24:56,925 --> 01:24:58,927
You know, not a lover, but a friend.
1515
01:24:59,010 --> 01:25:01,679
And, um... And they're going to...
1516
01:25:01,763 --> 01:25:03,598
They have obviously a really strong bond,
1517
01:25:03,681 --> 01:25:05,561
and they're gonna continue
to have a strong bond
1518
01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:08,728
as they work together
through all kinds of legal challenges.
1519
01:25:08,812 --> 01:25:14,692
So it made perfect sense
for that to be the ultimate storyline.
1520
01:25:15,693 --> 01:25:18,571
I think my parents
were a little shocked. [laughing]
1521
01:25:19,405 --> 01:25:20,405
You know, um...?
1522
01:25:22,242 --> 01:25:25,995
Because Howard never, that I'm aware of,
1523
01:25:26,079 --> 01:25:29,541
never said to my parents,
"I'm having a relationship with Anna."
1524
01:25:29,624 --> 01:25:33,128
You know?
Like, I don't think they knew that.
1525
01:25:35,171 --> 01:25:39,425
My mom, like, being a grandmother,
was, like, that was her pride and joy.
1526
01:25:46,057 --> 01:25:47,475
[music fades]
1527
01:25:47,559 --> 01:25:49,561
[sirens wailing]
1528
01:25:55,066 --> 01:25:58,528
[Nathan] I was at my apartment
in West Hollywood.
1529
01:25:59,320 --> 01:26:02,198
I'm having a Kylie Minogue
birthday party. [chuckling]
1530
01:26:03,575 --> 01:26:07,162
I'm a huge Kylie fan,
so that day is very important to me,
1531
01:26:07,245 --> 01:26:09,581
and I try to throw a party when I can.
1532
01:26:11,374 --> 01:26:13,376
[electro-pop music playing]
1533
01:26:14,210 --> 01:26:16,421
[Nathan] And just like every party
in Hollywood,
1534
01:26:16,504 --> 01:26:18,965
there was alcohol, and there was cocaine,
1535
01:26:19,048 --> 01:26:21,384
and we were just having a good time.
1536
01:26:21,467 --> 01:26:23,094
[indistinct chatter]
1537
01:26:24,012 --> 01:26:26,472
[Nathan] And Daniel comes over.
1538
01:26:27,098 --> 01:26:31,186
"Hey. You wanna have a drink?"
He's like, "I wanna have everything."
1539
01:26:31,269 --> 01:26:34,856
[chuckling] I was like,
"Where... Where did this come from?"
1540
01:26:35,481 --> 01:26:36,733
[tense music playing]
1541
01:26:36,816 --> 01:26:38,318
[indistinct chatter, laughter]
1542
01:26:38,401 --> 01:26:40,403
[Nathan] Daniel never drank. [chuckling]
1543
01:26:41,362 --> 01:26:42,906
I never saw him drink.
1544
01:26:42,989 --> 01:26:48,661
Maybe, I mean, one beer
every two weeks or three weeks or...
1545
01:26:48,745 --> 01:26:49,746
It was very rare.
1546
01:26:50,955 --> 01:26:53,208
Fast-forward to May.
1547
01:26:53,917 --> 01:26:55,001
He's drinking.
1548
01:26:55,710 --> 01:26:59,130
He's doing cocaine. He's doing pills.
1549
01:26:59,631 --> 01:27:01,841
He was... I think he was about to turn 21.
1550
01:27:03,051 --> 01:27:07,639
Personality-wise,
I had noticed that he had...
1551
01:27:09,557 --> 01:27:13,311
kind of changed.
1552
01:27:13,394 --> 01:27:16,981
Like, it was a little bit more
of an edgier, darker side of Daniel
1553
01:27:17,065 --> 01:27:18,358
that I hadn't seen before.
1554
01:27:19,859 --> 01:27:23,238
I think... I think I offered him a drink,
and he was just like...
1555
01:27:24,322 --> 01:27:27,575
He said, "Can I drink on some methadone?"
1556
01:27:27,659 --> 01:27:30,245
And I was like, "Where did you get
the methadone?" [chuckles]
1557
01:27:30,328 --> 01:27:34,666
I'm like, "Did you take it from your mom?"
And he said... He was like, "Yeah."
1558
01:27:36,251 --> 01:27:40,004
I'm like, "First of all,
how much did you take?" [chuckling]
1559
01:27:40,088 --> 01:27:42,548
He's like... He's like, "I just took one.
I just..."
1560
01:27:43,341 --> 01:27:44,717
[Nathan sighing heavily]
1561
01:27:45,343 --> 01:27:46,970
I mean, honestly... [chuckling]
1562
01:27:47,053 --> 01:27:48,763
[inhales deeply]
1563
01:27:48,846 --> 01:27:50,014
...it sounds stupid,
1564
01:27:50,098 --> 01:27:54,811
because I was at a party
with cocaine and alcohol. [chuckles]
1565
01:27:54,894 --> 01:27:58,398
"You shouldn't be doing methadone,
but here have some cocaine."
1566
01:27:58,481 --> 01:27:59,983
Um, it...
1567
01:28:00,066 --> 01:28:04,028
You know, it's just one of those things
like, "God, be careful. I can't..."
1568
01:28:04,112 --> 01:28:07,448
You know, "Stop doing that,
but here have some cocaine." [chuckles]
1569
01:28:08,533 --> 01:28:09,742
[sighing heavily]
1570
01:28:12,787 --> 01:28:15,790
[Nathan] You know, young and dumb,
but I was really worried.
1571
01:28:16,457 --> 01:28:17,959
[crowd cheering]
1572
01:28:18,042 --> 01:28:20,044
[ominous music playing]
1573
01:28:25,550 --> 01:28:26,551
[music fades]
1574
01:28:26,634 --> 01:28:29,470
[anchor] Former Playboy Playmate
Anna Nicole Smith's bid
1575
01:28:29,554 --> 01:28:32,056
to get part of her late husband's fortune
has new life today,
1576
01:28:32,724 --> 01:28:36,477
thanks to a very unlikely group of allies,
the Supreme Court.
1577
01:28:37,228 --> 01:28:41,149
[anchor 2] The high court has agreed
to hear the ex-Playboy model's case.
1578
01:28:41,232 --> 01:28:44,569
She's claiming millions of dollars
from her dead husband's estate.
1579
01:28:44,652 --> 01:28:45,987
[tense music playing]
1580
01:28:46,070 --> 01:28:47,447
[computer chiming]
1581
01:28:47,530 --> 01:28:51,367
Whenever I would be on, um, AOL,
I would see a box,
1582
01:28:51,451 --> 01:28:54,370
people who were on there,
and her name was Hot Smoochie Lips.
1583
01:28:54,454 --> 01:28:56,539
[computer trilling]
1584
01:28:56,622 --> 01:28:58,833
[Mitchell] So Anna had sent me
an instant message,
1585
01:28:58,916 --> 01:29:01,169
and she was referring to Larry.
1586
01:29:01,711 --> 01:29:03,463
[keyboard clacking]
1587
01:29:06,466 --> 01:29:07,466
[computer chiming]
1588
01:29:09,635 --> 01:29:11,387
[keyboard clacking]
1589
01:29:14,223 --> 01:29:15,223
[computer chiming]
1590
01:29:17,268 --> 01:29:19,270
[computer chiming]
1591
01:29:22,315 --> 01:29:23,232
[computer chiming]
1592
01:29:23,316 --> 01:29:25,902
[Mitchell] It was really clear
that Anna Nicole did not want
1593
01:29:25,985 --> 01:29:27,737
to share custody with somebody else.
1594
01:29:27,820 --> 01:29:30,531
She just wanted the child,
no strings attached,
1595
01:29:30,615 --> 01:29:34,452
and the best way to do that
was to maybe escape the States
1596
01:29:34,535 --> 01:29:36,079
and... and do this elsewhere.
1597
01:29:45,505 --> 01:29:47,173
[music fades]
1598
01:29:48,341 --> 01:29:50,635
[Pol'] Anna never wanted anything
from Larry.
1599
01:29:51,552 --> 01:29:53,471
Anna wanted Larry to leave her alone.
1600
01:29:56,557 --> 01:29:57,767
The truth is
1601
01:29:59,060 --> 01:30:00,520
she couldn't stand him.
1602
01:30:02,438 --> 01:30:05,024
- [melancholy music playing]
- [seagulls warbling]
1603
01:30:17,036 --> 01:30:19,247
[Mitchell] The Bahamas
would be her fresh start.
1604
01:30:19,330 --> 01:30:22,917
This was her chance
to raise the baby all by herself...
1605
01:30:26,003 --> 01:30:28,506
and do it the way
that she wanted it to be done
1606
01:30:28,589 --> 01:30:31,259
and the way she wished
she could've done for Daniel.
1607
01:30:44,063 --> 01:30:49,652
In the Bahamas, there is, um,
a few interesting legalities.
1608
01:30:50,528 --> 01:30:51,863
One being that
1609
01:30:51,946 --> 01:30:57,118
whoever signed the birth certificate
in the Bahamas is the father.
1610
01:30:57,201 --> 01:30:59,203
That's how they see it.
1611
01:30:59,829 --> 01:31:04,375
And so if Howard K. Stern signs that,
then he's the legal father. The end.
1612
01:31:11,090 --> 01:31:14,218
[Dr. Kapoor] Anna called me
in late August,
1613
01:31:15,136 --> 01:31:19,891
and she had just informed me on the phone
that she has moved to the Bahamas.
1614
01:31:27,190 --> 01:31:29,901
And I said, "Well what about your care...
you know, care?"
1615
01:31:29,984 --> 01:31:33,321
"Um, well, I'm... I'm here,
and it's a beautiful place,
1616
01:31:33,404 --> 01:31:35,490
and it's really relaxing,"
and all this stuff.
1617
01:31:35,573 --> 01:31:37,366
I said, "Well, you know..."
1618
01:31:37,450 --> 01:31:40,745
And then,
she also was calling really to say,
1619
01:31:40,828 --> 01:31:42,997
"I'm gonna run out of my methadone."
1620
01:31:43,080 --> 01:31:44,582
[seagulls warbling]
1621
01:31:45,500 --> 01:31:50,129
[Dr. Kapoor] That can result
in withdrawals, which can be deadly,
1622
01:31:50,213 --> 01:31:51,881
and I was worried about the baby.
1623
01:31:53,382 --> 01:31:55,551
And I checked to see
1624
01:31:55,635 --> 01:31:59,972
if, you know, you could even get methadone
in the Bahamas,
1625
01:32:00,056 --> 01:32:01,599
and there was absolutely no way.
1626
01:32:03,518 --> 01:32:06,103
So I called the pharmacy.
1627
01:32:06,187 --> 01:32:09,899
"She needs to have this medicine.
She only has a couple of days left."
1628
01:32:09,982 --> 01:32:11,234
I said, "What can I do?"
1629
01:32:11,317 --> 01:32:12,443
[somber music playing]
1630
01:32:12,527 --> 01:32:13,778
So the decision was made.
1631
01:32:13,861 --> 01:32:19,116
We're going to try to get it
to her in the Bahamas from here.
1632
01:32:20,034 --> 01:32:22,203
And, um, she got her methadone.
1633
01:32:24,664 --> 01:32:26,624
And then, Daniel came to see me
1634
01:32:26,707 --> 01:32:30,503
and was saying that he
and his mother were not getting along.
1635
01:32:31,796 --> 01:32:37,927
He seemed anxious
and somewhat irritated by the situation.
1636
01:32:39,929 --> 01:32:42,932
And he was struggling
with some issues of depression.
1637
01:32:43,558 --> 01:32:48,563
And so he ended up being admitted
to a hospital.
1638
01:32:49,230 --> 01:32:50,940
He was seen by a psychiatrist
1639
01:32:51,023 --> 01:32:55,528
who started him on the medicine Lexapro
before he was discharged home.
1640
01:32:55,611 --> 01:32:57,238
[ominous music playing]
1641
01:32:57,989 --> 01:33:01,993
[Dr. Kapoor] I said, "You need
to come back and take care of him."
1642
01:33:06,330 --> 01:33:09,500
I don't know if she realized
that, um, he was...
1643
01:33:09,584 --> 01:33:12,169
the gravity of what he was going through.
1644
01:33:12,253 --> 01:33:14,255
[unnerving music playing]
1645
01:33:15,715 --> 01:33:17,717
[baby crying]
1646
01:33:19,385 --> 01:33:20,385
[music fades]
1647
01:33:20,428 --> 01:33:22,471
I was called by Howard
1648
01:33:22,555 --> 01:33:26,392
and told that she just delivered
a bouncing baby girl,
1649
01:33:27,268 --> 01:33:30,980
and she's, uh, she looks beautiful.
1650
01:33:31,063 --> 01:33:33,357
And I... I said, "Can I speak to Anna?"
1651
01:33:33,441 --> 01:33:38,446
She said, "Momo, the baby's beautiful
and all I ever... what I ever wanted."
1652
01:33:38,529 --> 01:33:42,033
Then she told me, she says,
"Well, Daniel's on his way."
1653
01:33:42,116 --> 01:33:44,493
Whew! Wow. Okay, we got them together.
1654
01:33:44,577 --> 01:33:45,995
They're... They're talking.
1655
01:33:51,292 --> 01:33:55,338
She sent the plane ticket,
and he's on his way.
1656
01:33:56,964 --> 01:33:58,966

01:34:44,762 --> 01:34:46,514
[Maurice] I got
an out-of-state phone call,
1663
01:34:46,597 --> 01:34:48,849
and I looked and said,
"Oh man, this is the Bahamas."
1664
01:34:49,350 --> 01:34:55,314
And it was Howard on the phone,
very somber, soft, uh, tone in his voice.
1665
01:34:55,398 --> 01:34:59,068
He said, "Uh, Mo, uh,
Anna needs you really bad."
1666
01:34:59,151 --> 01:35:05,074
Then I could hear Anna in the background,
"Momo, come now! Momo, come now."
1667
01:35:05,157 --> 01:35:07,535
So I... I said... I said, "What's going on?"
1668
01:35:08,035 --> 01:35:10,162
He said, "Uh, Daniel just died."
1669
01:35:10,913 --> 01:35:12,331
[waves crashing]
1670
01:35:15,835 --> 01:35:17,044
[Maurice] I said, "What?
1671
01:35:18,170 --> 01:35:19,755
What do you mean, 'just died'?"
1672
01:35:20,464 --> 01:35:24,301
He said, "Yeah. He saw his sister,
1673
01:35:24,385 --> 01:35:26,846
then never woke up."
1674
01:35:26,929 --> 01:35:27,929
And...
1675
01:35:29,223 --> 01:35:30,266
"He's gone."
1676
01:35:33,978 --> 01:35:37,356
[spokesperson] Daniel Wayne Smith arrived
at the hospital late evening
1677
01:35:37,440 --> 01:35:39,275
on Saturday, September 9th
1678
01:35:40,109 --> 01:35:44,363
and remained as a visitor
with his mother and newly-born sister.
1679
01:35:45,281 --> 01:35:49,493
On Sunday, at 9:38 a.m.,
the nurse was called,
1680
01:35:50,119 --> 01:35:53,497
following which physicians on the floor
were immediately summoned.
1681
01:35:53,581 --> 01:35:55,124
[somber music playing]
1682
01:35:55,207 --> 01:35:59,003
[spokesperson] Resuscitative efforts using
advanced life-support protocol
1683
01:35:59,086 --> 01:36:01,005
continued for 22 minutes.
1684
01:36:02,256 --> 01:36:04,842
He was pronounced dead at 10:05 a.m.
1685
01:36:06,218 --> 01:36:09,847
We would like to extend
our sincerest condolences
1686
01:36:09,930 --> 01:36:13,100
to the family and the friends
of Daniel Wayne Smith,
1687
01:36:13,768 --> 01:36:15,603
and we encourage the press
1688
01:36:15,686 --> 01:36:18,773
to please be sensitive
to the family's loss
1689
01:36:18,856 --> 01:36:23,068
and give them the opportunity
to grieve during this time.
1690
01:36:30,785 --> 01:36:31,994
[Pol'] She was a wreck.
1691
01:36:33,412 --> 01:36:34,830
She was incoherent.
1692
01:36:35,331 --> 01:36:36,582
She couldn't talk.
1693
01:36:38,751 --> 01:36:40,085
She didn't wanna live.
1694
01:36:41,754 --> 01:36:45,132
Daniel was the reason
why she wanted to get out of Mexia, Texas.
1695
01:36:47,510 --> 01:36:49,720
Everything that she did was for Daniel.
1696
01:36:54,266 --> 01:36:56,644
[somber music continues]
1697
01:37:09,448 --> 01:37:13,202
[Pol'] Every single conversation
was what she did wrong,
1698
01:37:13,285 --> 01:37:15,079
blamed herself the whole time.
1699
01:37:17,998 --> 01:37:18,874
[music fades]
1700
01:37:18,958 --> 01:37:20,668
She said, "I just wanna die."
1701
01:37:22,336 --> 01:37:25,631
"I don't deserve to be here.
It should've been me."
1702
01:37:25,714 --> 01:37:27,424
"It should have never been him."
1703
01:37:29,885 --> 01:37:31,485
[voice breaking] "It should've been me."
1704
01:37:38,143 --> 01:37:42,356
Tonight, the sudden and unexpected death
of a young man, just 20 years old,
1705
01:37:42,439 --> 01:37:43,732
under investigation.
1706
01:37:44,775 --> 01:37:46,986
Twenty-year-old Daniel Smith,
1707
01:37:47,069 --> 01:37:51,740
his death, his sudden and unexpected death
there in a Bahaman hospital,
1708
01:37:51,824 --> 01:37:53,367
was it murder?
1709
01:37:53,450 --> 01:37:55,911
[unnerving music playing]
1710
01:37:55,995 --> 01:37:59,373
[anchor] Rumors continue to swirl
about the strange and sudden death
1711
01:37:59,456 --> 01:38:01,417
of Anna Nicole Smith's son Daniel.
1712
01:38:02,209 --> 01:38:04,545
As new evidence of an overdose emerges,
1713
01:38:04,628 --> 01:38:09,049
we ask, could this be an accident
or even suicide?
1714
01:38:09,133 --> 01:38:10,467
[camera shutters clicking]
1715
01:38:10,551 --> 01:38:14,805
[Pol'] We're surrounded
with more than 300 paparazzi.
1716
01:38:14,889 --> 01:38:21,770
The front and the side is barricaded
with photographers, international.
1717
01:38:24,189 --> 01:38:27,359
Cameras sticking up over the wall...
1718
01:38:28,861 --> 01:38:30,613
to see her devastation.
1719
01:38:30,696 --> 01:38:32,698
[somber music playing]
1720
01:38:33,741 --> 01:38:36,660
[Maurice] Every time she wakes up,
"Daniel's calling me."
1721
01:38:37,244 --> 01:38:40,789
"Daniel wants me there.
Daniel wants me there."
1722
01:38:43,584 --> 01:38:47,671
I would bring Dannielynn to her and said,
"This is the reason why you must live on."
1723
01:38:48,964 --> 01:38:51,300
Her whole mentality would change.
1724
01:38:52,593 --> 01:38:54,261
She would sit there, smile,
1725
01:38:55,429 --> 01:38:57,848
and look at the baby, and say,
"You're just an angel."
1726
01:38:57,932 --> 01:39:00,267
And I said,
"See, this is why you must live."
1727
01:39:02,269 --> 01:39:06,106
But she wanted to be with Daniel
all the time.
1728
01:39:10,736 --> 01:39:13,447
Because every time she would sleep,
she would see him.
1729
01:39:13,530 --> 01:39:16,200
Mom! Mom!
1730
01:39:17,868 --> 01:39:20,829
And that's why I believe
that she always liked to be sedated
1731
01:39:20,913 --> 01:39:23,415
and taking these pills
that will help her sleep.
1732
01:39:26,251 --> 01:39:28,337
Every dream, Daniel was there.
1733
01:39:32,049 --> 01:39:36,845
Most of the people that was around her
was enabling her.
1734
01:39:37,471 --> 01:39:40,641
She says, "Howard, I want you
to give me all these pills,
1735
01:39:40,724 --> 01:39:44,687
and you either give them to me,
or I'll find somebody else that do."
1736
01:39:45,270 --> 01:39:48,565
It ain't like Howard says,
"You have to take all these pills."
1737
01:39:49,650 --> 01:39:51,068
Howard would never do that.
1738
01:39:53,696 --> 01:39:55,364
She didn't need enablers.
1739
01:40:03,414 --> 01:40:05,207
[anchor] This is a time of great joy
for her.
1740
01:40:05,290 --> 01:40:07,418
She's bringing a new child into the world.
1741
01:40:07,501 --> 01:40:09,670
And at the time of her greatest joy,
1742
01:40:09,753 --> 01:40:12,214
something happens
to her 20-year-old child.
1743
01:40:12,297 --> 01:40:15,342
That is going to make her
feel tremendously guilty.
1744
01:40:28,480 --> 01:40:29,481
[music fades]
1745
01:40:34,737 --> 01:40:36,739
[reporters clamoring]
1746
01:40:36,822 --> 01:40:38,824
[camera shutters clicking]
1747
01:40:39,908 --> 01:40:42,303
[Larry] Thanks, everybody, for coming.
And I just want to say
1748
01:40:42,327 --> 01:40:45,414
that, um, I am the father of Dannielynn,
1749
01:40:45,497 --> 01:40:47,666
and I think this is, um,
1750
01:40:48,584 --> 01:40:51,253
a crime, basically,
what these people are doing to me.
1751
01:40:51,336 --> 01:40:54,798
And I expect to be reunited
with my daughter,
1752
01:40:54,882 --> 01:40:57,301
uh, with the help
of my attorney, Mrs. Opri.
1753
01:40:57,384 --> 01:40:58,677
Thank you all for coming.
1754
01:40:58,761 --> 01:41:01,722
[anchor] Who's the father
of Anna Nicole Smith's baby girl?
1755
01:41:01,805 --> 01:41:04,600
If this man has anything to say about it,
it's him.
1756
01:41:04,683 --> 01:41:07,102
[anchor 2] Dannielynn could inherit
millions of dollars
1757
01:41:07,186 --> 01:41:12,024
from the estate of Smith's late husband,
oil tycoon J. Howard Marshall.
1758
01:41:12,107 --> 01:41:14,068
[anchor 3] Why has Anna Nicole
been so secretive
1759
01:41:14,151 --> 01:41:16,695
about who the father
of her new daughter is?
1760
01:41:16,779 --> 01:41:21,784
Uh, Anna and I have, um,
been in a relationship,
1761
01:41:21,867 --> 01:41:23,577
and we love each other,
1762
01:41:23,660 --> 01:41:26,872
and it's been going on
for a very long time.
1763
01:41:26,955 --> 01:41:28,290
So you are the father?
1764
01:41:29,666 --> 01:41:30,666
Yes, sir.
1765
01:41:31,418 --> 01:41:34,630
[Larry King] By the way, have there been
any DNA tests taken? Is that...
1766
01:41:34,713 --> 01:41:36,799
- [Stern] Proud father.
- [Larry King] What?
1767
01:41:37,466 --> 01:41:39,259
[Stern] I said, "Proud father."
1768
01:41:39,343 --> 01:41:42,221
[anchor] Attorney Howard K. Stern says
he's the father.
1769
01:41:42,304 --> 01:41:45,682
Ex-boyfriend Larry Birkhead says
the child is his,
1770
01:41:45,766 --> 01:41:47,893
and in the zaniest moment of the day,
1771
01:41:47,976 --> 01:41:51,355
Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband,
Prinz Frédéric von Anhalt,
1772
01:41:51,438 --> 01:41:53,440
hinted even he could be involved.
1773
01:41:54,024 --> 01:41:55,944
There are lots of people
who could be the father.
1774
01:41:56,026 --> 01:41:57,236
[man] Could you be the father?
1775
01:41:57,319 --> 01:41:58,654
I don't know. I mean...
1776
01:42:00,197 --> 01:42:02,199
Sometimes I'm a bad boy. Yeah.
1777
01:42:02,783 --> 01:42:04,743
Who is the father of Dannielynn?
1778
01:42:05,869 --> 01:42:09,373
He's the father of her.
1779
01:42:09,957 --> 01:42:10,999
[Larry] I am the father.
1780
01:42:11,083 --> 01:42:13,502
You know, until science proves me wrong,
I am the father.
1781
01:42:14,586 --> 01:42:16,713
[Stern] We really haven't been allowed
to grieve
1782
01:42:16,797 --> 01:42:19,424
with the way
that this whole thing has been handled.
1783
01:42:20,175 --> 01:42:21,885
And, you know, I...
1784
01:42:22,469 --> 01:42:25,973
It's gonna be, uh, I think, a little while
1785
01:42:26,056 --> 01:42:30,352
before, um, you know, we're gonna be able
to experience real happy moments.
1786
01:42:39,945 --> 01:42:41,280
[music fades]
1787
01:42:42,197 --> 01:42:43,740
[clock ticking]
1788
01:42:47,161 --> 01:42:49,329
[phone line ringing]
1789
01:42:53,792 --> 01:42:54,952
[dispatcher] Fire and rescue.
1790
01:42:55,002 --> 01:42:56,753
[officer] Hi, this is Seminole Police.
1791
01:42:56,837 --> 01:42:59,214
If you can please respond
to the Hard Rock.
1792
01:42:59,298 --> 01:43:01,967
- [dispatcher] Uh-huh.
- [officer] Room 607.
1793
01:43:02,050 --> 01:43:02,885
[dispatcher] Okay.
1794
01:43:02,968 --> 01:43:06,471
[officer] It's gonna be in reference
to a white female, who is, um...
1795
01:43:07,639 --> 01:43:09,308
What, is she not responsive?
1796
01:43:09,391 --> 01:43:11,435
[officer 2] Not responsive
and not breathing.
1797
01:43:11,518 --> 01:43:13,705
[officer] She's not breathing,
and she's not responsive.
1798
01:43:13,729 --> 01:43:16,648
She's, um, actually Anna Nicole Smith.
1799
01:43:16,732 --> 01:43:19,401
- [dispatcher] Oh, okay.
- [officer] Okay? All right. Thank you.
1800
01:43:19,484 --> 01:43:21,486
[somber music playing]
1801
01:43:27,701 --> 01:43:29,703
[inaudible]
1802
01:44:14,706 --> 01:44:18,502
[Pol'] There's people
in front of the store going,
1803
01:44:18,585 --> 01:44:22,172
"Do you know what's going on?
What happened? Did you hear?"
1804
01:44:22,923 --> 01:44:26,051
And I'm like, "What are you talking about?
Who are you?"
1805
01:44:26,551 --> 01:44:27,886
All these news vans.
1806
01:44:29,346 --> 01:44:34,851
And Patrik goes... calls, uh,
Anna's number. She's not answering.
1807
01:44:34,935 --> 01:44:37,646
Calls Howard. He's not answering.
1808
01:44:37,729 --> 01:44:41,108
Calls Mo, and he goes,
"Baby girl is gone."
1809
01:44:41,984 --> 01:44:43,694
Baby girl is gone."
1810
01:44:43,777 --> 01:44:49,992
And the pain that he was speaking with
was so great.
1811
01:44:51,368 --> 01:44:55,998
Run to the airport. First flight out.
Five hours later, we're in Florida.
1812
01:44:58,250 --> 01:44:59,751
Howard was a mess.
1813
01:45:00,377 --> 01:45:01,377
I mean,
1814
01:45:02,713 --> 01:45:04,172
he was inconsolable.
1815
01:45:05,257 --> 01:45:08,177
[anchor] A lot of people are really
painting Howard K. Stern as a villain.
1816
01:45:08,218 --> 01:45:09,303
[man] How you doing today?
1817
01:45:09,386 --> 01:45:12,347
[anchor] A lot of people have made him out
to be a manipulator.
1818
01:45:12,431 --> 01:45:15,267
[anchor 2] Reportedly, they are looking
for possible prescriptions
1819
01:45:15,350 --> 01:45:19,438
written out to Howard K. Stern
to supply Anna with drugs.
1820
01:45:19,521 --> 01:45:22,899
Can you tell me why you're not cooperating
with the Broward County Medical Examiner?
1821
01:45:22,983 --> 01:45:24,192
I have no comment to make.
1822
01:45:24,276 --> 01:45:29,406
The methadone prescriptions
with my name on it appears in the press.
1823
01:45:29,489 --> 01:45:33,994
This doctor shipped it over to her,
to a pregnant lady.
1824
01:45:35,329 --> 01:45:38,123
And it... it felt like
they were blaming me for her death,
1825
01:45:38,206 --> 01:45:41,001
um, and... and they were.

[camera shutters clicking]
1827
01:45:44,129 --> 01:45:45,505
[anchor] This may say a lot
1828
01:45:45,589 --> 01:45:49,926
about our current culture
of celebrity and media these days
1829
01:45:50,010 --> 01:45:53,263
when all the major cable news networks
1830
01:45:53,347 --> 01:45:57,309
switched over to non-stop,
live coverage this afternoon,
1831
01:45:57,392 --> 01:46:00,854
when word arrived
that Anna Nicole Smith had died.
1832
01:46:00,937 --> 01:46:02,939
She was 39 years old.
1833
01:46:03,023 --> 01:46:06,026
She was adored by millions
but loved by few.
1834
01:46:06,610 --> 01:46:10,197
There was obviously always this sorta air
of tragedy around Anna Nicole Smith.
1835
01:46:10,280 --> 01:46:12,199
She had so much misfortune in her life.
1836
01:46:12,282 --> 01:46:14,284
[anchor] So what about Anna's money?
1837
01:46:14,368 --> 01:46:18,914
Does she have a will,
and, um, who is the father of this child?
1838
01:46:19,581 --> 01:46:21,500
Whoever has access to this child,
1839
01:46:21,583 --> 01:46:25,545
whoever is raising this child has access
to whatever monies this child inherits,
1840
01:46:25,629 --> 01:46:29,549
which is potentially tens of millions
if not hundreds of millions of dollars.
1841
01:46:29,633 --> 01:46:33,136
I mean, the phrase "rest in peace"
means absolutely nothing, unfortunately,
1842
01:46:33,220 --> 01:46:35,013
when it comes to Anna Nicole Smith.
1843
01:46:35,097 --> 01:46:36,473

[music fades]
1845
01:46:51,696 --> 01:46:55,075
[Missy] She told me all the time
that she was gonna die young.
1846
01:46:57,285 --> 01:47:00,497
And I felt really bad because I said, I...
you know, I should've believed her.
1847
01:47:00,580 --> 01:47:05,127
I should've, uh, spent some more time
doing things that were positive.
1848
01:47:06,711 --> 01:47:09,256
I shouldn't have said
the stuff I said to her,
1849
01:47:09,339 --> 01:47:11,591
you know, because now, I'm...
I can't take it back.
1850
01:47:11,675 --> 01:47:13,875
I'm never gonna be able to change it.
It's... It's over.
1851
01:47:13,927 --> 01:47:14,927
[Missy sniffling]
1852
01:47:15,303 --> 01:47:18,598
And then I thought about her baby girl,
and I thought, "How sad."
1853
01:47:18,682 --> 01:47:20,892
Because that little girl's
never gonna know
1854
01:47:20,976 --> 01:47:24,521
how much her mother loved her
even before she was born, you know?
1855
01:47:24,604 --> 01:47:27,983
She... She's never gonna know
how badly her mom wanted her,
1856
01:47:28,066 --> 01:47:31,027
and she's never gonna feel
her hugging her,
1857
01:47:31,111 --> 01:47:34,406
and... and singing to her, and doing
all those things that mothers do.
1858
01:47:34,489 --> 01:47:36,491
[somber music playing]
1859
01:47:42,914 --> 01:47:45,667
[Missy] But I thought, you know,
"At least, she's back with Daniel."
1860
01:47:45,750 --> 01:47:49,212
"At least, her and Daniel
are back together," and... [sniffling]

[dog barking]
1866
01:48:55,987 --> 01:48:58,240
First of all, she's not my mother.
1867
01:48:58,323 --> 01:48:59,866
She's my birth mother.
1868

[somber music playing]
1869
01:49:08,166 --> 01:49:11,294
[Anna] I left home
when I was 15 years old.
1870
01:49:12,420 --> 01:49:15,840
[Missy] I'm just sitting on the couch, uh,
and the TV's on.
1871
01:49:15,924 --> 01:49:19,135
And I see Nicky on TV.
1872
01:49:20,971 --> 01:49:24,558
What has she done for me?
You wanna hear how my childhood was?
1873
01:49:25,600 --> 01:49:28,270
All the beatings,
and the whippings, and the rape.
1874
01:49:29,145 --> 01:49:30,397
That's my mother.
1875
01:49:31,273 --> 01:49:32,691
That's my mom.
1876
01:49:32,774 --> 01:49:34,985
[Missy] She said
that she was raped at home,
1877
01:49:35,068 --> 01:49:37,737
and she had to run away from home,
and she was beaten.
1878
01:49:39,406 --> 01:49:40,615
Bitch.
1879
01:49:41,199 --> 01:49:43,827
[Missy] I was shocked, because I knew
1880
01:49:43,910 --> 01:49:46,496
that was not her childhood
coming out of her mouth.
1881
01:49:46,580 --> 01:49:47,831
That was my childhood.
1882
01:49:47,914 --> 01:49:50,554
That's exactly what happened to me
and the way I relayed it to her.
1883
01:49:57,924 --> 01:50:02,178
Vickie told people
that my mama abused her.
1884
01:50:03,555 --> 01:50:06,975
And she did not abuse her.
1885
01:50:07,684 --> 01:50:11,396
My mother was a very sweet, loving person.
1886
01:50:17,068 --> 01:50:19,529
[Missy] The only person
that I ever remember
1887
01:50:19,613 --> 01:50:21,448
coming to her rescue was her mother,
1888
01:50:21,531 --> 01:50:22,866
over and over and over.
1889
01:50:23,700 --> 01:50:26,995
There were times that we got out of
a lot of trouble because of Virgie.
1890
01:50:27,996 --> 01:50:31,082
If she had not been
in... in law enforcement,
1891
01:50:31,166 --> 01:50:33,877
we... we would've been in prison
a couple times, you know?
1892
01:50:36,504 --> 01:50:40,800
[Donald] They did talk to each other
behind the scenes.
1893
01:50:42,802 --> 01:50:44,596
And they cared about each other.
1894
01:50:48,433 --> 01:50:52,020
My mom passed away three years ago
with cancer.

[ominous music playing]
1897
01:50:59,027 --> 01:51:00,320
We were not poor.
1898
01:51:01,071 --> 01:51:04,032
We lived a moderate life in Houston.
1899
01:51:08,495 --> 01:51:11,289
Three bedrooms, two carports.
1900
01:51:18,129 --> 01:51:20,173
She would tell these stories
1901
01:51:20,840 --> 01:51:23,009
about what a horrible
1902
01:51:24,594 --> 01:51:26,012
childhood she had.
1903
01:51:26,513 --> 01:51:28,264
And I said... I asked her one time. I said,
1904
01:51:28,348 --> 01:51:31,935
"Vickie Lynn, why do you tell such lies?"
1905
01:51:32,018 --> 01:51:33,103
"Why do you do that?"
1906
01:51:33,728 --> 01:51:37,816
She said, "Mother, I wish
you could just understand that...
1907
01:51:39,275 --> 01:51:44,614
I make more money telling sad stories
1908
01:51:44,698 --> 01:51:47,242
than I make telling good stories."
1909
01:51:47,325 --> 01:51:49,619
She... She said, "Don't get me wrong."
1910
01:51:49,703 --> 01:51:53,581
"I make money
anytime my name is out in the open."
1911
01:51:54,332 --> 01:51:56,459
"Anytime my name
is written down somewhere,
1912
01:51:56,543 --> 01:51:59,045
in the newspaper, on TV, in the news."
1913
01:51:59,129 --> 01:52:00,130
"It doesn't matter."
1914
01:52:00,213 --> 01:52:03,425
"If my name is out there,
I'm making money."
1915
01:52:04,426 --> 01:52:06,803
"Which is my purpose in life.
I'm making money."
1916
01:52:07,303 --> 01:52:13,435
She said, "But if it's... if it's bad,
something really bad,
1917
01:52:14,477 --> 01:52:20,191
I make 50 times the amount of money
than I make if it's good."
1918
01:52:22,026 --> 01:52:26,197
And I said, "Well, Vickie, don't you want
people to think good about you?"
1919
01:52:27,532 --> 01:52:29,993
She says, "Well, no.
Not if bad pays better."
1920
01:52:31,536 --> 01:52:33,663
I said, "Doesn't it embarrass you?"
1921
01:52:35,665 --> 01:52:39,544
She says, "No, not to the tune
of however much money I can make from it,
1922
01:52:39,627 --> 01:52:40,795
it doesn't embarrass me."
1923
01:52:40,879 --> 01:52:43,548
I said, "Don't you think
it embarrasses your family?"
1924
01:52:46,050 --> 01:52:49,554
She says, "Mom... this is my life."
1925
01:52:49,637 --> 01:52:50,680
[Virgie chuckling]
1926
01:52:50,764 --> 01:52:53,308
"Not your life. This is my life."
1927
01:52:53,391 --> 01:52:56,936
"So I ought to be able to tell
whatever stories I want to tell."
1928
01:52:57,020 --> 01:52:59,230
"True or false,
I ought to be able to tell 'em."
1929
01:53:02,734 --> 01:53:07,989
Nicky did very much get swept away
by a story that she created.
1930
01:53:09,616 --> 01:53:11,993
Can you tell so many lies
and tell it so many times
1931
01:53:12,076 --> 01:53:13,661
that all of a sudden it's true?
1932
01:53:15,580 --> 01:53:20,001
But she lost her son.
She lost... She lost her life.
1933
01:53:20,084 --> 01:53:21,753
She lost everything.
1934
01:53:24,297 --> 01:53:26,132
That's what it cost her.
