00:00:00Right. NBC presents a mystery.
00:00:02Just don't add up.
00:00:04A love story and a mother who'll stop at nothing to avenge her son's murder.
00:00:08You gotta stop playing detective.
00:00:10Barbara Mandrell. Now, The Wrong Girl. A special NBC Monday Night Movie.
00:00:30I wouldn't turn around and break it.
00:00:39And anyone who's ever played a part.
00:00:45Wouldn't turn around and hate it.
00:00:52Sweet dreams.
00:00:57Sweet dreams.
00:01:03Sweet dreams.
00:01:08Sweet, sweet dreams.
00:01:11Can I keep going with your broadcast?
00:01:13Na, na, na, na, na, na, na.
00:01:19Na, na, na, na, na, na, na.
00:01:26Sweet dreams.
00:01:31Sweet, sweet dreams.
00:01:33All right, get out.
00:01:35Get out of my car, you bunch of freeloaders.
00:01:39You can find your own way home from here.
00:01:41No way. You're not driving us back to school?
00:01:43No.
00:01:44How rude.
00:01:45Yeah, that's pretty damn inconsiderate, Fisher.
00:01:51We're hoping you don't come back to school next semester.
00:01:54Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:01:56All right.
00:02:10Steven?
00:02:13Steven?
00:02:18Steven?
00:02:20Mom, stop sneaking around like that.
00:02:22I wasn't sneaking.
00:02:23It's not my fault that that music you're playing is making you totally deaf.
00:02:28I saw that the gang went back to school.
00:02:30How was your weekend?
00:02:32Sorry, can't hear you.
00:02:33Very funny.
00:02:36Yeah, we had a great time.
00:02:39A weekend at the Lakes is just what I needed.
00:02:41And yes, before you ask, we left it exactly the way we found it.
00:02:45Good.
00:02:46Total mess.
00:02:49So I, um...
00:02:51I assume that the guys had a few beers.
00:02:54Did anyone get out of hand?
00:02:57Mom...
00:02:59I was just wondering if...
00:03:00If I had a drink.
00:03:03No.
00:03:06I didn't.
00:03:09I know, I know.
00:03:10I know the last couple of months have been really hard on everybody.
00:03:14Nobody expected what happened in school was gonna happen.
00:03:17I know.
00:03:18But you have to trust me.
00:03:21I have it under control.
00:03:23Okay?
00:03:26I hope so.
00:03:37Excuse me.
00:03:38Hi.
00:03:39Hey.
00:03:41Um...
00:03:42Can I help you?
00:03:43I'm looking for the manager.
00:03:45In regards to?
00:03:46I'd like to fill out an application.
00:03:47I'm Kelly.
00:03:48Steve.
00:03:49Hey.
00:03:50Manager's not here.
00:03:51But since I am the assistant manager, I could probably help you out.
00:03:55Can you finish this?
00:03:56Sure.
00:03:57So does that mean you're in charge of hiring, Steve?
00:03:59No, but I had some influence in that department.
00:04:02Okay.
00:04:04Okay.
00:04:05Come on, I'll get you an application.
00:04:06Thanks.
00:04:10Here it is.
00:04:12Ha ha!
00:04:13I like this.
00:04:14Ha ha!
00:04:16Sucker shot.
00:04:18Okay.
00:04:20So basically you tell me that this teacher's going to cut me some slack because she sees you guys as friends.
00:04:25Yeah.
00:04:26Well, I wouldn't put it like that.
00:04:30Look, I know that you guys are trying to help.
00:04:34And I appreciate it, but...
00:04:37It's just I'm not ready to go back to school yet.
00:04:40And I don't know when I will be.
00:04:42Come on, why do you want to go back to college?
00:04:43I mean, you don't have to pay for rent.
00:04:45You don't have to pay for meals.
00:04:46And you have a well-trained maid here at home.
00:04:48Oh, yet you're one to talk because you pay for so many meals of late.
00:04:51Yeah, but I'm 14 and I'm supposed to be here.
00:04:54Okay.
00:04:55Look, I think we're getting a little off track here.
00:04:57Ruth Sherman is not trying to sign you up.
00:04:59She's just trying to show you the benefits of Braddock.
00:05:00That's all.
00:05:01Right.
00:05:02Other than the fact that it's five minutes down the road so you guys can keep an eye on me.
00:05:05Yeah, well, that too.
00:05:09Steven, please.
00:05:10Just meet with her, okay?
00:05:13For me.
00:05:16Okay.
00:05:19You know, I don't mean to rush you, but I need to get back to work today.
00:05:24Now, is this what I need or not?
00:05:26Hold on.
00:05:30Excuse me, sweetheart.
00:05:32You do work here, right?
00:05:34Look, maybe if you try shutting the hell...
00:05:37Well, you're a muck, so the man who knows everything about stoves is right here.
00:05:42Hi.
00:05:43How are you doing?
00:05:44Sorry about that.
00:05:45Can I help you, sir?
00:05:47It's about time.
00:05:52Thank you, sir.
00:05:57Next time you get an obnoxious customer, just call a salesperson over, okay?
00:06:01Can't I just punch them instead?
00:06:03Yeah, just as long as they deserve it.
00:06:06Now, just call me over.
00:06:07Gladly.
00:06:08All right.
00:06:13Mm-hmm.
00:06:16Well, somebody had a good day.
00:06:18Huh?
00:06:19Well, wait.
00:06:20So what happened?
00:06:23Uh, I don't know.
00:06:26Nothing.
00:06:28I don't know.
00:06:36Hey.
00:06:39You're gonna like that.
00:06:41So, is the smoking section full?
00:06:43Yeah, pretty much.
00:06:45But, uh, for you, I'll make an exception.
00:06:51Ohio, huh?
00:06:54How come you came all the way to upstate New York?
00:06:58Because I knew every single person in Cuyahoga Falls.
00:07:01Which isn't saying much.
00:07:03My aunt lives here, so I figured, why not?
00:07:05You know what? We are pathetic.
00:07:07We should both stop smoking these stupid cancer sticks.
00:07:09Hey!
00:07:10We'll quit together.
00:07:13You know, one of these chicks pretty much gets whatever she wants, huh?
00:07:16Depends on what it is we're talking about, I guess.
00:07:20Okay.
00:07:22All right, I'll make you a deal.
00:07:24I'll go along with you on this whole no smoking thing.
00:07:26If...
00:07:27Okay, deal.
00:07:29I didn't say the deal yet.
00:07:31Doesn't matter.
00:07:32I figure I'm in a win-win situation either way.
00:07:35All right.
00:07:36All right.
00:07:40So, I guess, we're going out after work?
00:07:44Maybe.
00:07:53Try sticking your butt out more.
00:07:54Choke up a bit on the back.
00:08:01You're talking to a former all-star.
00:08:07Okay, so maybe it was Little League.
00:08:11I prefer old-fashioned food.
00:08:13Oh.
00:08:14Okay.
00:08:36Whoa!
00:08:39That's quite a hit.
00:08:41I had no idea you played.
00:08:43There's a lot of things you don't know about me, Steven Fisher.
00:08:47I think that's changed me.
00:08:53So when's he gonna get here?
00:08:54Your guess is as good as mine.
00:08:59Hey.
00:09:00Ooh, this looks good.
00:09:02Get out of there.
00:09:03I don't fly your plane and you don't mess with my kitchen, remember?
00:09:06Yes, ma'am.
00:09:07This still doesn't look right.
00:09:10So, am I late?
00:09:12Hey, buddy.
00:09:14Hey, Richie.
00:09:16Don't call me that.
00:09:17Oh, you love it.
00:09:18No, I don't.
00:09:19Welcome home, baby.
00:09:22You look fantastic.
00:09:23Thanks.
00:09:24Pop, how are you?
00:09:25Good.
00:09:26Good to be home.
00:09:27Hey, buddy.
00:09:28Hey.
00:09:30That was the year you made state soccer, right?
00:09:32No, that was 93.
00:09:3394, I broke my leg skiing, remember?
00:09:36Did you play soccer, Steve?
00:09:38No.
00:09:40Soccer was not my sport.
00:09:42So, what is it you like to do, Kelly?
00:09:44Well, I went to cosmetology school right after graduation, but I didn't really care for it.
00:09:49So, now I guess I'm not really sure.
00:09:51Sometimes I wish it was still okay to want to stay home and raise a family.
00:09:54It is.
00:09:55Not everyone needs a career, Kelly.
00:09:57How can I remember you said that?
00:09:58Well, I was just asking what she might be interested in.
00:10:01Well, we do know she's interested in little Stevie here.
00:10:04Twenty bucks to anybody who can tell me why?
00:10:07Do you work, Mrs. Fisher?
00:10:08Yes.
00:10:09I'm a real estate agent.
00:10:10She's been doing it for like 20 years.
00:10:12Really?
00:10:13What do you like best about it?
00:10:14Oh, the best thing is finding the perfect fit.
00:10:16Family house budget.
00:10:18Mom says that she finds everybody's true home.
00:10:21Cool.
00:10:22How great to know that even if your mom wasn't always around, at least she was out doing something worthwhile.
00:10:32I had a great time.
00:10:34You did?
00:10:36They didn't scare you off?
00:10:38A mom can be a little much sometimes.
00:10:40Nah, I think it's great your family's so close.
00:10:43Something I've always dreamed of, to be a close family.
00:10:46What's your family like?
00:10:48Well, my dad dumped my mom for another woman when I was little.
00:10:52That's harsh.
00:10:54What about your mom?
00:10:55She tried, but she was always miserable.
00:10:57When I finally started getting to know her, she got cancer.
00:11:00She died last year.
00:11:05I'm sorry.
00:11:06It's okay.
00:11:08Life, you know?
00:11:17Uh, Kelly.
00:11:21I like you.
00:11:22Kelly.
00:11:24I like you.
00:11:27A lot.
00:11:29Good, because I like you too.
00:11:52Good night.
00:11:54Drive safe.
00:12:02Is that an old car?
00:12:13Oh, thanks, Cynthia.
00:12:16Who's that girl over there with Steve?
00:12:20Oh, that's Missy Roberts.
00:12:21They used to go out.
00:12:22She's part of that whole crowd that hangs out at the lake every summer.
00:12:25Excuse me.
00:12:26Can I buy this?
00:12:27I'll be right with you.
00:12:28They went out?
00:12:29For how long?
00:12:30Maybe four years.
00:12:32It started as a high school thing, and then again after he went off to college.
00:12:36Four years?
00:12:37When did they break up?
00:12:39Not too long ago.
00:12:41We're still really good friends.
00:12:48What a great place!
00:12:49I can't believe you grew up with all this.
00:12:52There's a lot of things you don't know about me, Kelly Garner.
00:12:55You ready to go sailing?
00:12:57I have a better idea.
00:13:04Come on, we're almost there.
00:13:05Come on.
00:13:07Okay.
00:13:08Ta-da.
00:13:15This is amazing.
00:13:17What's it for?
00:13:19Our two-week anniversary.
00:13:33Uh...
00:13:36I don't know about that.
00:13:38What, wrong brand?
00:13:40No, it's just...
00:13:43I've just been trying to take a break from drinking.
00:13:46You know how I told you last year that I'd dropped out of school and all that?
00:13:50Yeah?
00:13:52There's a...
00:13:54There's a little more to it than that.
00:13:57I, um...
00:13:59I've been drinking a lot and screwing up pretty royally.
00:14:04And I got fed up, and I split for a couple weeks.
00:14:08I didn't call anybody.
00:14:10Wow.
00:14:11Your family must have flipped out.
00:14:12Yeah, pretty much.
00:14:15And, um...
00:14:17Anyway, I've just been...
00:14:18I've just been trying to take a break from the booze.
00:14:23But you're not an alcoholic.
00:14:25No, I just...
00:14:27I'm just a little scared.
00:14:29Good.
00:14:30Then we can enjoy this.
00:14:38One sip won't throw you off the wagon, right?
00:14:46Mm-hmm.
00:14:55Here's to, uh...
00:14:57Our first two weeks together, and, um...
00:15:02From now on.
00:15:05To us.
00:15:15Cheers.
00:15:34Hey, Mom.
00:15:37I can't believe you.
00:15:38I just can't.
00:15:41Mom's 21 years old.
00:15:42Are you telling me I can't go stay out all night?
00:15:45Do you even know how busy Ruth Sherman is?
00:15:48And when she finally fits you into her schedule, you just blow it off.
00:15:51Ah-ha, the meeting.
00:15:54I'm sorry, I totally forgot.
00:15:55Kelly and I were at the lake, and we got carried away.
00:16:00Uh...
00:16:02You think she'll give me another chance?
00:16:06I don't know.
00:16:08Stephen, honey, I know you're happy.
00:16:10But please don't let everything else just slide.
00:16:13I know.
00:16:16I know.
00:16:18I know, I'm sorry.
00:16:21I'll set up another appointment with Dr. Sherman, okay?
00:16:25Okay?
00:16:29The garden looks pretty.
00:16:35I don't want to leave you.
00:16:36I don't want to leave you.
00:16:42Hey, don't worry.
00:16:44We'll figure something out.
00:16:48There's no way that I'm losing you.
00:16:53In fact, I got a great idea.
00:16:55What?
00:16:58I don't know what to say.
00:16:59Mom, it's just for a little while.
00:17:02It's a couple of weeks.
00:17:04Until she gets on her feet.
00:17:07Come on, her aunt's moving.
00:17:08She's got nowhere else to go.
00:17:12Not everybody has a perfect family to fall back on, you know?
00:17:18Dad, come on, what do you think?
00:17:21Well, there is that little room above the garage.
00:17:25He fixed that up.
00:17:27This is all moving so fast.
00:17:29Yeah, Kelly, could you excuse us for just one moment, please?
00:17:39Excuse me?
00:17:40I'm not hearing what you're saying.
00:17:42Don't take this the wrong way, but we barely know that girl.
00:17:46And you barely know her.
00:17:48And to move in here?
00:17:50Wait, I do know her.
00:17:52She's my girlfriend.
00:17:55Guys, I am finally happy.
00:17:57Don't take it away from me.
00:18:06Really great up there, Steve.
00:18:11Two more loaves.
00:18:12Good.
00:18:15Hi.
00:18:16How's the move going?
00:18:18Hi, Mrs. Fisher.
00:18:19It's going great.
00:18:20Hey, Bridgette.
00:18:22I thought you hated that name.
00:18:23No, I don't care.
00:18:24Hey, you guys need any help?
00:18:26No, it's okay, honey.
00:18:27We got it.
00:18:38Kelly?
00:18:39What are you doing in my room?
00:18:41My mom never had stuff like this.
00:18:42Your things are so beautiful.
00:18:44Yes, and they are my things.
00:18:46Well, of course they are.
00:18:48Thank you so much, Mrs. Fisher, for letting me be a member of your family.
00:18:51Thank you so much, Mrs. Fisher, for letting me be a member of your family.
00:19:09Bridgette?
00:19:12Bridgette?
00:19:14Bridgette?
00:19:16Where have you been?
00:19:17I've been worried about you.
00:19:19I went shopping with Kelly.
00:19:20And you took my credit card without even asking.
00:19:23But you said I could.
00:19:24With me?
00:19:25I never said you could leave this house with my credit card.
00:19:28It's my fault, Mrs. Fisher.
00:19:29I should have checked with you first.
00:19:31Never mind.
00:19:32It's over and done with.
00:19:34Well, do you want to see what I got?
00:19:37Okay.
00:19:39This?
00:19:40You've paid this much for ripped and faded shorts?
00:19:42I could have done this for free.
00:19:45Bridgette, please go to your room.
00:19:47Mom, this is so unfair.
00:19:48Just because you're jealous, I went with Kelly.
00:19:50Oh, I am not jealous.
00:19:52Why do you have to ruin everything, Mom?
00:19:59I'm sorry if I caused any trouble, Mrs. Fisher.
00:20:01I didn't mean to.
00:20:03Kelly, I know that your intentions were harmless.
00:20:07But in the future, check with me before you take Bridgette out with you.
00:20:11Understand?
00:20:18Okay.
00:20:29I can't imagine my mother being nasty to you for no reason.
00:20:32She was.
00:20:33All I did was take Bridgette shopping.
00:20:34I was helping her.
00:20:35Now she hates me.
00:20:36She doesn't hate you.
00:20:37She just...
00:20:39She hates feeling usurped.
00:20:40I wasn't trying to usurp her, whatever that means.
00:20:43It means...
00:20:44You know what?
00:20:45I don't care what it means, okay?
00:20:46I love living here.
00:20:47Being part of a real family.
00:20:49How can I get her to like me?
00:20:51She does like you.
00:20:53Everybody likes you.
00:20:55You just maybe gotta give her a little more time.
00:21:06We've been married 23 years.
00:21:08I was in the bathroom, Mom!
00:21:10You never know what's gonna happen at the Golden Globes, January 24th on NBC.
00:21:15She did.
00:21:16Went to her house and said if she didn't stop going after Billy, she was gonna get hurt.
00:21:19No!
00:21:20I don't blame her.
00:21:21Some chick went after Steve.
00:21:22I'd go ballistic.

00:45:41you mean Steve couldn't do what his parents wanted him to do and what was
00:45:45that to break up with me I see um when did you sail back in I guess around

00:45:59and left I started to get nervous when he wasn't back in an hour or so and
00:46:03about nine o'clock I I really started to worry and that's when you drove back

00:49:39okay then at least we have a better idea of where Steven isn't I don't get it I
00:49:45mean the last time Steve went missing he had a plan you know he packed a bag you
00:49:51know where he was going mom hey where have you guys been searching Kelly's
00:49:59relentless I don't think there's one inch of these woods she didn't drag me

00:50:08anything
00:50:11I'll be back soon
00:50:33all the way back
00:50:40did they find him where is he no we haven't found him yet I think you need
00:50:47to hear this straight out we haven't found Steve in fact we haven't found
00:50:52anything all we do know is that he's not in these woods I'm afraid we're going to
00:50:58have to call off the search what but it's only been four days the police
00:51:02department is not giving up mrs. Fisher don't worry we'll be keeping our eyes
00:51:06open well it's nice to know that you'll be keeping your eyes open

00:51:28I love you
00:52:58Oh
00:53:17drive you back into town I'm sorry
00:53:28Oh
00:53:32no limits Pfizer life is our life's work local ambulance crew gets lost on the
00:53:40way to an emergency at a left
00:53:58they're treating Steven's death as a homicide why would anyone want to kill
00:54:08my brother
00:54:28Oh
00:54:59no there's there's nothing else you do realize this has turned into a murder
00:55:04investigation right yes I know therefore it's important for you to go over every
00:55:08last detail in your mind did he have a fight with someone work or maybe a new
00:55:13friend I've never met someone that could have followed you down to the lake
00:55:19Oh
00:55:27yes what is it Kelly when we were sailing I remember we noticed this weird
00:55:32guy in a speedboat was he acting suspiciously well at the time I didn't
00:55:36think anything of it but looking back on it he was just kind of hanging around
00:55:39did he and Steven talk no he just sort of watched us a while and then he took
00:55:46off well could you describe this guy or his boat to a police sketch artist yes I
00:55:51think so excellent well it's not much but right now it's the best lead we have
00:55:57thanks
00:56:06that was intense huh well it just seems that he cares about Steven's case you
00:56:12know I hope what I said helped Kelly I'm curious isn't that Steven st.
00:56:18Christopher's medal yeah but how did you get it Steven gave it to me
00:56:28weird man in a boat why don't you say something earlier that's what I was
00:56:33thinking she's lying come on Ange just cuz Kelly's a
00:56:38misfit or whatever it doesn't make her up you can't say it can you that Kelly
00:56:42might be a murderer and her son is dead but you think if you don't say it it
00:56:46can't be true that's not fair she's wearing the st.
00:56:52Christopher's metal says he gave it to her my father gave him that metal he'd
00:56:57never give to anybody open casket yeah I think if we if we schedule the funeral
00:57:05three days after the wake it should give people plenty of time to cry before
00:57:10it's buried I don't understand Kelly I can't say this any more clearly it's not
00:57:18your responsibility to make our son's funeral arrangements you and Jim have
00:57:24been so devastated I thought this would be helpful yeah I'm sure you meant well
00:57:28but burying our son is a family matter right and this is how a family pulls
00:57:34together right everyone pitches in I'm sorry Kelly but you are not a member of
00:57:38this family it's not that we don't care for you Kelly we do but please Stephen
00:57:45left me okay I can't be alone I can't
00:57:53and everyone was just standing there waiting yelling for Steve to jump but he
00:57:59was frozen in place so terrified finally mom climbed up the tree went up to the
00:58:07branch where he was sitting whisper something into his ear and the next
00:58:13thing you know he's grabbing that rope and he's swinging out over the lake and
00:58:18no one could stop him at six years old we knew Steve was the kind of person that
00:58:27wouldn't quit I've always respected him for that
00:58:34those are beautiful thoughts Brian
00:58:41he loved you so much Angela and he would be so hurt if you believed that all that
00:58:47could change because of one argument
00:58:57hey what do you say we go get some punch why is everyone laughing like this is
00:59:07some sort of party because this is a party it's a celebration of Stephen's
00:59:11life hi guys this is rough huh yeah it is my family's taking care of me meaning
00:59:22not my family don't push me Bridget hey guys come on this isn't the time
00:59:29I'm sorry
00:59:49yeah is Angela home sorry they're out

01:00:17Angela
01:00:20I'm so so sorry I know honey I know
01:00:29you
01:00:36do they have any suspects not really Kelly said she saw some man in a boat out
01:00:41in the lake but who knows you don't believe her I don't know things just
01:00:46don't add up I never trusted Kelly what do you mean you never saw them when they
01:00:54went out together Angela she knew drinking was his weakness and I swear
01:00:58she used it to control him and if you crossed her or you got her mad when she
01:01:03was drunk she what she could get violent Angela Angela telephone okay I should go
01:01:17but we'll talk soon definitely
01:01:28hello Kelly I thought someone was on the phone that's weird maybe I hung up
01:01:47I don't know
01:02:17oh
01:02:36man hang on right back morning how can I help you I just wondered if Kelly is
01:02:45being considered an official suspect and what you want me to be quiet no no I
01:02:51just want to hear what they know about this okay yeah you want to know my
01:02:54position here I think Kelly's just a little girl not a murderer I mean why
01:02:59would she do it it happens but I'm curious mrs. Fisher why do you think that
01:03:04we should be taking a look at Kelly because I think there's a lot more to
01:03:07her story than she's saying
01:03:11is this just a gut feeling it's a lot of things Kelly's violent temper her
01:03:17demeanor when Stephen went missing the metal she's wearing my son's metal which
01:03:22I know that he would never have given her we can't haul people in based on
01:03:26hunches and circumstantial evidence I need hard proof well then why aren't you
01:03:31out getting some
01:03:35we have but we don't want to scare Kelly off I'm sorry I can't discuss this with
01:03:42you you're not the one whose son was found floating in Cherokee Lake
01:03:48detective but you're gonna close your eyes to the possibility that Kelly
01:03:53Garner is involved in this fine but don't you expect me to do the same

01:11:54this
01:11:57okay
01:12:03you
01:12:05yeah mr. Drake yeah mr. Drake my name is Angela Fisher Nancy Peter thank you

01:12:40daughter sir a Kelly Drake mr. Drake
01:12:51so what'd she do now excuse me whatever it is don't even think about trying to
01:12:56hang it on me okay Kelly took off last year and that is the last we've seen of
01:13:01her which is just fine wait are you Kelly's mother last I checked maybe I
01:13:09have the wrong Drake is this Kelly yeah Oh mrs. Drake I don't know how to tell
01:13:17you this but your daughter I think she may have killed my son
01:13:26look
01:13:29you seem like a nice lady and I am sorry that you got mixed up with Kelly but
01:13:35that is your problem this is Drake she's your daughter not no more
01:13:56it's all there accounts for strange behavior violent temper false name fake
01:14:01aunt everything it's very interesting stuff thank you for bringing it down
01:14:05how long until you can bring her in well mrs. Fisher we really do appreciate all
01:14:11this work but you know you've got to stop playing detective Kelly could be
01:14:15dangerous or you could taint evidence without even knowing it this just came
01:14:19in from Albany well speak of the devil what seems that Kelly Drake's record is
01:14:25as clean as Kelly Garner's well just because she's good at covering up her
01:14:29tracks doesn't mean she's innocent oh thank you anytime
01:14:35what sit down Angela
01:14:49the coroner's report notes that there was a rope mark around Stephen's ankle
01:14:53what does that mean it's possible that the body was weighted down but not
01:14:58slipped and he floated to the surface
01:15:05detective Jacobs you know as well as I do that Kelly did this this woman lives
01:15:11in my house she trusts me isn't that something you can use
01:15:20little Doppler XT working for you
01:15:41uh-huh yes I will dip Kelly I will definitely meet you yes thank you what
01:16:01is that I'm not sure some man just called but he wouldn't identify himself
01:16:05what do you mean well he said that he read about Stephen's case in the
01:16:08newspaper and that he had some more information really what what what kind
01:16:12of information he wouldn't say just that he'd seen something that day at the lake
01:16:17I'm supposed to meet him at the cottage this afternoon he may be a crackpot but
01:16:23would you help me check it out yeah we should definitely check it out I'll go
01:16:30get my stuff okay
01:16:35I'm really glad we're doing this together you mean that yeah I think it's
01:16:40time we all pull together you know instead of splintering apart we haven't
01:16:45been that close but I feel like that's the past now I've been close I mean
01:16:50we've definitely had our problems but that stuff happens in families right
01:16:54what if you and me what if we work together to try to figure out who did
01:16:59this like a team you got it see the rest of my family may be happy to let
01:17:05everything just fade into the past but we won't give up will we of course not
01:17:13I lost my son Kelly I don't want to lose you too
01:17:19I think we're a little bit early
01:17:23I wonder where this guy is
01:17:26I think we're a little bit early I wonder where this guy is well this is where we're
01:17:53supposed to meet him I know as long as we're here why don't we look around and maybe we'll
01:17:59find something that everyone else missed I think well it beats wasting a trip to the
01:18:04lake okay let's start from the beginning you're out in the boat and you decide it's time to
01:18:11come in how come oh what do you mean how come well you know um was it that you were tired
01:18:17of sailing or there wasn't any wind oh oh Stephen was so upset from the fight we had had was he
01:18:26taking it out on you Angela I really don't see how this has anything to do with listen sweetie
01:18:31if you and Stephen had a fight or something I'd understand I mean people fight we did have an
01:18:42argument but it was nothing huge I see so you came back in because you weren't getting along
01:18:59and Stephen moored the boat and left
01:19:13what's wrong I'm not sure nothing maybe it's just that Stephen was such an expert sailor you know
01:19:21and the first thing a sailor learns is how to tie off a boat but this is just a plain old knot like
01:19:28somebody who never sailed might tie but if he did tie this I don't I don't know I mean it's okay
01:19:37you know sometimes things just happen
01:19:43accidents happen no I mean that's not what I that's not what I meant
01:19:50okay we we did fight that David it wasn't his fault
01:20:04I can't even I can't even say it I remember how upset Stephen was that day how angry
01:20:11he he wasn't himself
01:20:14was he drunk is that why you're trying to protect him
01:20:25he was out of control I understand just just tell me
01:20:33it happened right after we docked Stephen was tying the boat up you know what Kel
01:20:39you're absolutely right that's exactly what I think and you know what
01:20:42then when I reached down to him he pushed me away hard like he couldn't bear to be touched I
01:20:47I fell backwards and the next thing I knew he was just there staring at me you're right I'm sorry
01:20:51honey I just you're just pushing so hard I was so scared I thought he was gonna hurt
01:20:56me or else I wouldn't have pushed him back Stephen I'm sorry
01:21:05oh my god baby wake up wake up oh my god wake up baby wake up wake up wake up
01:21:22Stephen wake up
01:21:26help somebody help me
01:21:32I didn't know what to do you know I I thought the only choice I had was
01:21:34to leave him here and go call for help I thought maybe I could find a radio or something
01:21:42so
01:22:02Stephen
01:22:03Stephen
01:22:06but while I was searching the wind caught the snail and Stephen rolled into the water
01:22:20I stayed under as long as I could
01:22:24but the water was so murky I I couldn't see anything
01:22:28I understand you were terrified I have wanted to tell you for so long but I was afraid I'd lose you
01:22:47I tried so hard to save him
01:22:53please don't blame me
01:22:54yeah it's all gonna be okay now
01:23:01when when Stephen fell was there any blood no well then why did the police
01:23:12find tiny specks of Stephen's blood right here on the deck they did yeah
01:23:18um right when we were heading out I remember Stephen had cut his ankle on this metal thing
01:23:24right here he said it wasn't anything serious but it might have bled a little bit I see
01:23:31you know there are two paddles did you know that the police found a broken one from the
01:23:38lake that they retrieved that exactly matches this one and they found minute samples of his
01:23:46samples of his of his blood and his hair in the splinters
01:23:53I I just told you what happened Angela it was an accident hey hey hey it's okay
01:24:00it's okay whatever happened you and I are gonna face this together
01:24:07kill
01:24:17I never meant to hurt him Angela you have to believe me
01:24:19but nothing I said was getting through that day I had to make him hear me
01:24:37so
01:24:55I just wanted him to stay
01:24:58I couldn't find his pulse I mean he died just like that and then I
01:25:03I panicked you know I didn't know what else to do
01:25:13yes you did
01:25:20you tied a weight on his ankle and then you pushed my son into the lake
01:25:32so
