Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:07,817 --> 00:00:10,865
In the criminal justice
system, sexually based offenses
2
00:00:10,949 --> 00:00:12,974
are considered
especially heinous.
3
00:00:13,255 --> 00:00:15,692
In New York City,
the dedicated detectives
4
00:00:15,778 --> 00:00:17,544
who investigate
these vicious felonies
5
00:00:17,629 --> 00:00:19,015
are members of an elite squad
6
00:00:19,099 --> 00:00:20,853
known as
the Special Victims Unit.
7
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:22,676
These are their stories.
8
00:00:26,112 --> 00:00:28,567
9
00:00:28,650 --> 00:00:30,504
10
00:00:30,588 --> 00:00:32,508
11
00:00:32,591 --> 00:00:34,914
Why are Tate and Liam
so cute?
12
00:00:34,997 --> 00:00:37,752
I can't believe they invited me
to the Wheelhouse.
13
00:00:37,835 --> 00:00:39,918
I thought Diggy Wheeler
invited you?
14
00:00:40,003 --> 00:00:41,097
Well, yeah, technically.
15
00:00:41,286 --> 00:00:42,795
But I've been DMing with Tate.
16
00:00:42,878 --> 00:00:45,255
Diggy's house, his rules.
Show him respect.
17
00:00:45,340 --> 00:00:49,216
Mm‐hmm.
And Tate and Liam can be...
18
00:00:49,301 --> 00:00:50,912
Fun, creative.
19
00:00:50,996 --> 00:00:53,536
Really, really sexy.
20
00:00:53,701 --> 00:00:55,036
Don't give me that look.
21
00:00:55,121 --> 00:00:56,777
This could be
a huge break for me.
22
00:00:56,883 --> 00:00:58,511
Posting content with these guys
23
00:00:58,618 --> 00:01:00,435
could bring me
to 6 million overnight.
24
00:01:02,085 --> 00:01:04,974
I'm not gonna let you go
into that lion's den alone.
25
00:01:05,057 --> 00:01:07,745
I'm coming with.
Now close.
26
00:01:07,828 --> 00:01:11,653
♪ If someone pushed me out
I think that I'd do the same ♪
27
00:01:11,736 --> 00:01:14,028
This is it.
The Wheelhouse.
28
00:01:14,609 --> 00:01:19,561
Holy freaking... I mean are
you kidding me with this place?
29
00:01:19,646 --> 00:01:21,801
I know.
Never gets old.
30
00:01:22,058 --> 00:01:24,579
So it's one thing to look
at the skyline from Jersey.
31
00:01:24,662 --> 00:01:26,950
But it's another
to be on top of it.
32
00:01:28,325 --> 00:01:30,379
Come on.
Fun times.
33
00:01:30,463 --> 00:01:32,551
Diggy Wheeler.
How are you doing?
34
00:01:32,979 --> 00:01:37,004
It's good to be the king.
And you must be Willa.
35
00:01:37,254 --> 00:01:39,009
You're as pretty in real life
as you are in your videos.
36
00:01:39,093 --> 00:01:42,581
That never happens.
No one told me you were here.
37
00:01:42,665 --> 00:01:43,852
Well, you snooze, you lose.
38
00:01:43,936 --> 00:01:45,543
We were just giving her
a tour.
39
00:01:45,668 --> 00:01:49,129
What do you think, Willa?
This place is sick.
40
00:01:49,215 --> 00:01:51,201
Well, I'm glad you like it.
41
00:01:51,310 --> 00:01:53,871
Maybe we'll find
a spot for you.
42
00:01:53,956 --> 00:01:55,908
Oh, I've got
lots of content ideas.
43
00:01:55,992 --> 00:01:58,680
Which is why you're here.
Mm‐hmm.

Yep.
59
00:02:53,159 --> 00:02:54,284
That's insane.
60
00:02:54,370 --> 00:02:55,694
Think you could get
used to this?
61
00:02:55,778 --> 00:02:57,942
Getting paid to make
videos all day?
62
00:02:58,026 --> 00:02:59,293
It comes with the territory.
63
00:02:59,377 --> 00:03:01,253
Dude, it is the territory.
64
00:03:01,890 --> 00:03:03,364
All right.
Vibe check.
65
00:03:03,449 --> 00:03:05,548
Shots and then hot tub action,
eh?
66
00:03:05,632 --> 00:03:06,818
Yeah.
Hey.
67
00:03:06,901 --> 00:03:10,574
Oh, God.
I'm such a lightweight.
68
00:03:10,775 --> 00:03:12,594
All right,
welcome to the Wheelhouse.
69
00:03:12,679 --> 00:03:13,764
Hey.
Ooh!
70
00:03:13,848 --> 00:03:15,215
Cheers.
71
00:03:18,925 --> 00:03:20,659
Oh, yeah, baby.
Ugh.
72
00:03:20,745 --> 00:03:22,764
Wow.
73
00:03:26,562 --> 00:03:28,122
Willa, are you all right?
Me?
74
00:03:28,206 --> 00:03:32,067
I'm... I'm totally... I'm fine.
75
00:03:32,151 --> 00:03:33,537
Whoa, whoa, easy.
76
00:03:33,621 --> 00:03:35,128
Yo, everything Gucci
over there?
77
00:03:35,213 --> 00:03:36,933
I'm good.
78
00:03:37,094 --> 00:03:39,314
Hey, you...
you need to lie down.
79
00:03:39,399 --> 00:03:41,052
There's a guest room
downstairs.
80
00:03:41,137 --> 00:03:42,855
Okay.
81
00:03:42,939 --> 00:03:45,387
Thank you.
82
00:03:45,472 --> 00:03:47,091
Oh, it's our business
manager, Lenny.
83
00:03:47,175 --> 00:03:48,728
Oh.
I can call him back.
84
00:03:48,813 --> 00:03:51,569
Dude, take the call.
That's why you're the boss.
85
00:03:51,718 --> 00:03:55,042
We'll help Willa downstairs.
Poor Willa.
86
00:03:55,242 --> 00:03:57,138
Easy.
I'm sorry.
87
00:03:57,223 --> 00:03:58,086
Oh, careful.
88
00:03:58,170 --> 00:04:00,598
You're good.
Okay.
89
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,626
Willa? Honey, I've been...
90
00:04:22,884 --> 00:04:25,848
Mom, Mom, look.
91
00:04:26,391 --> 00:04:29,043
TikTok, Noah?
I said no phones at the table.
92
00:04:29,165 --> 00:04:30,440
Just look.
93
00:04:33,942 --> 00:04:37,137
You guys, I'm here
at the Wheelhouse.
94
00:04:37,223 --> 00:04:38,800
We were partying tonight.
95
00:04:38,884 --> 00:04:43,800
And Tate and Liam...
they just raped me.
96
00:04:44,495 --> 00:04:47,465
I don't know whether
to post this or go to SVU
97
00:04:47,550 --> 00:04:50,090
or pretend like
it was a bad dream.
98
00:04:50,757 --> 00:04:54,098
Who is this?
Willa Bartola, a dancer.
99
00:04:56,543 --> 00:04:58,038
Well, she must
have deleted it.
100
00:04:58,122 --> 00:04:59,715
It's not there anymore.
101
00:05:00,779 --> 00:05:03,382
If the video's gone, does
that mean you can't help her?
102
00:05:03,466 --> 00:05:04,920
No, it doesn't, honey.
103
00:05:05,004 --> 00:05:07,057
Sweetie, remember
how I keep telling you,
104
00:05:07,141 --> 00:05:09,161
once you post something
on the internet,
105
00:05:09,245 --> 00:05:11,526
it stays there forever.

You guys, I'm here
at the Wheelhouse.
112
00:06:07,702 --> 00:06:10,250
We were partying tonight,
and Tate and Liam...
113
00:06:10,625 --> 00:06:11,913
they just raped me.
114
00:06:13,173 --> 00:06:15,793
So she's a TikTok star?
According to Noah.
115
00:06:15,877 --> 00:06:19,321
So she posts this video,
and then she deletes it.
116
00:06:19,406 --> 00:06:21,514
But not before
everybody copied it?
117
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:22,983
Do we know when she posted it?
118
00:06:23,067 --> 00:06:25,779
No, Carisi, we don't,
and to be honest with you,
119
00:06:25,865 --> 00:06:27,350
I don't really know
what we're looking at here.
120
00:06:27,435 --> 00:06:29,600
That makes two of us.
Hmm.
121
00:06:29,735 --> 00:06:32,055
Sorry to interrupt.
Detective, yes.
122
00:06:32,209 --> 00:06:34,641
Sergeant Bell told me
that the OC
123
00:06:34,725 --> 00:06:36,836
was looking for our help
to find a missing girl.
124
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,776
Her name's Rita Lasku.
Do you mind?
125
00:06:39,860 --> 00:06:40,961
Of course.
126
00:06:43,774 --> 00:06:46,154
Stabler found her passport
in the closet
127
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,540
of an Albanian gang higher‐up,
along with a dozen others.
128
00:06:49,625 --> 00:06:52,257
All young Albanian women.
They're holding passports.
129
00:06:52,343 --> 00:06:53,312
That means
they're trafficking them.
130
00:06:53,398 --> 00:06:55,851
That's why I'm here.
Stabler got close to Rita
131
00:06:55,937 --> 00:06:57,033
when she was waitressing
in a diner.
132
00:06:57,117 --> 00:06:58,293
She's been missing
for a few days.
133
00:06:58,377 --> 00:06:59,803
Did he ask
about her at the diner?
134
00:06:59,889 --> 00:07:02,336
They claimed she was sick.
He can't really pursue.
135
00:07:02,420 --> 00:07:05,000
Well, we can,
and we will look into it.
136
00:07:05,591 --> 00:07:06,764
Thanks.
137
00:07:10,543 --> 00:07:14,586
Wait, that's.. Willa Bartola.
Did something happen to her?
138
00:07:14,670 --> 00:07:16,692
You know her?
Everybody knows her.
139
00:07:17,149 --> 00:07:18,428
Not everyone.
140
00:07:19,716 --> 00:07:21,038
A rising star.
141
00:07:21,124 --> 00:07:22,358
She blew up last week
142
00:07:22,444 --> 00:07:25,314
when she posted a dance video
with the Wheelhouse guys.
143
00:07:25,399 --> 00:07:29,023
Yeah Tate and Liam.
Rivers, so you do know them?
144
00:07:29,281 --> 00:07:32,136
She's claiming that
those two raped her.
145
00:07:32,221 --> 00:07:35,350
At a party at the Wheelhouse.
That's rough.
146
00:07:35,935 --> 00:07:39,158
I'm not entirely surprised.
I get a bad vibe.
147
00:07:39,351 --> 00:07:41,836
Back up.
What is the Wheelhouse?
148
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,372
It's a content house.
149
00:07:43,523 --> 00:07:44,764
Meaning?
150
00:07:44,850 --> 00:07:46,571
Groups of influencers
live together
151
00:07:46,656 --> 00:07:48,639
and crank out videos 24/7.
152
00:07:48,725 --> 00:07:50,812
The Wheelhouse is the
brainchild of Diggy Wheeler.
153
00:07:50,896 --> 00:07:52,492
Kind of a nerd
who's broken through.
154
00:07:52,576 --> 00:07:55,507
So Willa went there looking
for her 15 minutes?
155
00:07:55,591 --> 00:07:58,117
More like
15 million followers.
156
00:07:58,531 --> 00:08:01,420
If you get invited into that
house, you're a superstar.
157
00:08:01,504 --> 00:08:03,742
Endorsement deals,
money pouring in.
158
00:08:03,826 --> 00:08:04,992
If it works out.
159
00:08:08,225 --> 00:08:10,129
Looks like it didn't.
160
00:08:14,137 --> 00:08:17,259
Willa, thank you
for meeting us.
161
00:08:17,444 --> 00:08:19,812
That video you posted,
162
00:08:19,896 --> 00:08:22,422
you made that right
after you were assaulted?
163
00:08:22,521 --> 00:08:25,976
Yeah, I went back and forth
on whether or not to post it,
164
00:08:26,062 --> 00:08:28,242
and then I finally decided
165
00:08:28,903 --> 00:08:31,478
everybody needs to know
who these guys really are.
166
00:08:31,562 --> 00:08:33,320
Okay, but then
you took it down.
167
00:08:33,404 --> 00:08:35,273
I had to.
Why?
168
00:08:35,357 --> 00:08:37,879
You wouldn't believe
the hate I was getting
169
00:08:37,963 --> 00:08:40,381
from Wheelhouse fans.
I was doxxed.
170
00:08:40,466 --> 00:08:44,157
They put my face
on porn star bodies.
171
00:08:44,241 --> 00:08:48,015
My DMs were all "whore" this,
"slut" that.
172
00:08:48,774 --> 00:08:53,157
Willa, I'm sorry,
but since you're here,
173
00:08:53,337 --> 00:08:55,293
how about... how about
you have a seat
174
00:08:55,379 --> 00:08:58,008
and sort of walk us... walk us
through what happened?
175
00:08:58,485 --> 00:09:00,538
In the video,
you said you were invited
176
00:09:00,621 --> 00:09:03,360
to a party at the Wheelhouse?
177
00:09:04,109 --> 00:09:07,328
Um, it was more
like a tryout.
178
00:09:08,208 --> 00:09:11,431
Diggy Wheeler, Tate,
Liam, and I,
179
00:09:11,711 --> 00:09:13,937
we were filming some content,
180
00:09:14,023 --> 00:09:18,133
and it was amazing, at first.
181
00:09:18,293 --> 00:09:20,898
Okay.
Until it wasn't.
182
00:09:23,067 --> 00:09:26,657
We were doing shots
in the hot tub.
183
00:09:27,166 --> 00:09:29,562
I got really dizzy,
184
00:09:30,289 --> 00:09:33,144
and then Tate and Liam
took me downstairs.
185
00:09:33,292 --> 00:09:34,875
Downstairs where?
186
00:09:35,905 --> 00:09:38,078
To Tate's bedroom,
187
00:09:38,163 --> 00:09:40,687
and then that's when
they locked the door.
188
00:09:41,857 --> 00:09:45,114
And they said that I was
gonna get what I came for.
189
00:09:45,236 --> 00:09:48,258
Some of their brotherly love.
190
00:09:48,342 --> 00:09:50,028
And what did
they mean by that?
191
00:09:52,385 --> 00:09:55,375
Tate got on top of me,
and then Liam.
192
00:09:56,663 --> 00:10:00,086
And I was crying
and telling them no.
193
00:10:00,172 --> 00:10:01,490
I must have passed out.
194
00:10:01,575 --> 00:10:04,029
I‐I woke up,
and my... my clothes were off.
195
00:10:04,115 --> 00:10:05,407
I was a mess,
196
00:10:05,687 --> 00:10:08,676
and I just wanted
to get out of there.
197
00:10:09,278 --> 00:10:12,640
Is there a chance
any of this was recorded?
198
00:10:13,359 --> 00:10:14,782
No.
199
00:10:15,192 --> 00:10:17,875
They said that
if there's no video,
200
00:10:18,312 --> 00:10:19,730
it never happened.
201
00:10:20,101 --> 00:10:21,961
Did you tell anyone?
202
00:10:22,046 --> 00:10:24,701
Yeah, my... my friend Kavon.
203
00:10:24,786 --> 00:10:26,806
He found me in the bathroom,
204
00:10:26,890 --> 00:10:29,750
and he said
we should call the cops.
205
00:10:32,342 --> 00:10:35,048
And I wanted to be asked
to join the house.
206
00:10:42,004 --> 00:10:43,924
I warned Willa
about Tate and Liam.
207
00:10:44,063 --> 00:10:46,852
Those two... they get away
with whatever they want.
208
00:10:47,006 --> 00:10:48,552
Please tell me
that they're going down.
209
00:10:48,638 --> 00:10:50,054
Well, we're still
investigating.
210
00:10:50,139 --> 00:10:51,399
I know that they raped her.
211
00:10:51,484 --> 00:10:54,649
I saw her right after.
She was hysterical.
212
00:10:55,267 --> 00:10:57,182
I said, "Let's go
to the hospital," but...
213
00:10:57,267 --> 00:10:58,890
Would you be willing
to give a statement?
214
00:10:58,975 --> 00:11:00,297
Testify, if we needed you to?
215
00:11:00,381 --> 00:11:01,789
Absolutely.
216
00:11:01,875 --> 00:11:03,789
I quit that house
two months ago.
217
00:11:04,371 --> 00:11:07,946
The only reason I was there
was to protect Willa.
218
00:11:09,739 --> 00:11:11,426
Well, Kavon backed me up,
219
00:11:11,510 --> 00:11:13,508
so can't you just
arrest those guys?
220
00:11:13,592 --> 00:11:15,743
The case is a little more
complicated than that.
221
00:11:15,827 --> 00:11:18,067
Willa, you didn't get
a rape kit.
222
00:11:18,152 --> 00:11:19,682
You didn't report right away.
223
00:11:19,767 --> 00:11:21,969
And none of that means
you weren't assaulted,
224
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,210
but these boys are gonna lawyer
up as soon as we question them.
225
00:11:25,365 --> 00:11:27,993
Which is why we want you
to talk to them first,
226
00:11:28,077 --> 00:11:29,586
while we listen in.
227
00:11:31,570 --> 00:11:34,164
Well, Diggy's the only one
who wants to talk to me.
228
00:11:34,250 --> 00:11:36,036
Diggy Wheeler?
How do you know that?
229
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,075
Well,
after I posted the video,
230
00:11:38,159 --> 00:11:41,726
he texted me saying
he wants to apologize.
231
00:11:43,634 --> 00:11:45,605
How about you
text him back then?
232
00:11:47,743 --> 00:11:50,398
Unfortunately,
there's no news on Rita Lasku.
233
00:11:50,482 --> 00:11:52,461
The diner
where she worked claimed
234
00:11:52,546 --> 00:11:54,165
that she quit last week.
235
00:11:54,250 --> 00:11:56,203
They can't go up
against Albi.
236
00:11:56,288 --> 00:11:58,209
I may have somebody who will.
237
00:11:58,293 --> 00:12:01,283
He claims that he's a vigilante
in the Albanian community,
238
00:12:01,368 --> 00:12:03,469
so I'll keep you posted.
239
00:12:03,602 --> 00:12:06,008
But while I have you
on the phone,
240
00:12:06,570 --> 00:12:08,735
I'd like to borrow
one of your detectives.
241
00:12:15,144 --> 00:12:17,015
Thanks for meeting me, Willa.
242
00:12:17,437 --> 00:12:19,000
Can I get you
something to drink?
243
00:12:19,085 --> 00:12:22,173
No, thanks.
Okay.
244
00:12:22,719 --> 00:12:24,321
Uh, why don't we go outside?
245
00:12:24,413 --> 00:12:25,633
Okay.
246
00:12:25,717 --> 00:12:27,850
247
00:12:27,936 --> 00:12:30,291
248
00:12:30,446 --> 00:12:33,446
I just wanted to tell you
I'm sorry you were so upset.
249
00:12:33,530 --> 00:12:35,451
You're not sorry
that Tate and Liam raped me?
250
00:12:35,547 --> 00:12:36,758
Willa, those guys told me
251
00:12:36,842 --> 00:12:38,554
everything that happened
was consensual.
252
00:12:39,993 --> 00:12:42,235
I was even a little bit
jealous, but I get it.
253
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:43,716
You don't like me that way.
254
00:12:43,801 --> 00:12:45,711
I didn't like them
that way either.
255
00:12:46,467 --> 00:12:48,750
Look, I know you were unhappy
that we didn't invite you
256
00:12:48,836 --> 00:12:50,775
to join the house,
but maybe we can find
257
00:12:50,860 --> 00:12:51,732
a way to collaborate on...
258
00:12:51,817 --> 00:12:54,605
Well, well, well.
Guys, get out.
259
00:12:54,690 --> 00:12:56,677
If it isn't the girl
who cried rape.
260
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,024
You guys can't be here.
261
00:12:58,110 --> 00:13:00,440
Well, last time I checked,
it's our house, so...
262
00:13:00,601 --> 00:13:02,253
Well, I thought...
I thought Wheeler said
263
00:13:02,337 --> 00:13:03,581
that those guys
weren't gonna be home.
264
00:13:03,666 --> 00:13:04,926
Did he set her up?
265
00:13:05,009 --> 00:13:06,019
What the hell
are you doing here?
266
00:13:06,104 --> 00:13:07,378
You said you were going
to apologize,
267
00:13:07,461 --> 00:13:09,572
but there's nothing
to apologize for.
268
00:13:09,657 --> 00:13:10,703
Yes, there is.
269
00:13:10,788 --> 00:13:12,708
What you guys did to me
was not...
270
00:13:12,793 --> 00:13:14,447
Exactly what you came for.
271
00:13:14,532 --> 00:13:15,777
All right, back up.
Just give her some space.
272
00:13:15,860 --> 00:13:19,623
Not until she apologizes
for that desperate video.
273
00:13:19,774 --> 00:13:21,592
Look, the fans need to know
274
00:13:21,677 --> 00:13:23,429
that you're okay,
and we're all fam.
275
00:13:23,514 --> 00:13:25,735
No, I'm... I'm not okay.
I‐I didn't want you guys...
276
00:13:25,818 --> 00:13:27,938
Uh‐oh.
She's getting upset.
277
00:13:28,023 --> 00:13:28,720
Ugh.
278
00:13:28,804 --> 00:13:31,182
Okay, the fans don't want
to see you melting down again,
279
00:13:31,267 --> 00:13:32,923
so don't do that.
It's bad for your brand.
280
00:13:33,008 --> 00:13:35,548
I‐I didn't want you guys...
Whoa, whoa.
281
00:13:35,648 --> 00:13:36,946
Tate's right.
282
00:13:37,201 --> 00:13:39,789
You need to tell people your
little video was just a stunt.
283
00:13:40,107 --> 00:13:41,293
Smile.
We...
284
00:13:41,378 --> 00:13:43,143
Don't do...
Are live...
285
00:13:43,227 --> 00:13:44,298
Whoa!
286
00:13:44,383 --> 00:13:46,403
From the Wheelhouse
with our girl Willa,
287
00:13:46,489 --> 00:13:51,447
and there is nothing but love
between us, right, Willa?
288
00:13:51,533 --> 00:13:53,586
No doubt, no doubt,
since day one.
289
00:13:53,715 --> 00:13:55,235
They're livestreaming this.
290
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,407
You all probably knew her
from her dancing vids,
291
00:13:57,491 --> 00:13:58,498
but I bet you didn't know
she'd pull a fast one.
292
00:13:58,581 --> 00:13:59,802
She's terrified.
Go.
293
00:13:59,886 --> 00:14:01,657
Yeah.
Go, I'll text Jet.
294
00:14:01,756 --> 00:14:04,346
I know Willa the stunt queen
had some of y'all real shook...
295
00:14:04,429 --> 00:14:05,250
Mm‐hmm.
With her video.
296
00:14:05,336 --> 00:14:08,258
But she was just playing
the whole time, right, boo?
297
00:14:08,342 --> 00:14:10,529
Hey, guys, gotcha.
Aww. Aww.
298
00:14:10,615 --> 00:14:12,234
Love you.
Love you.
299
00:14:12,318 --> 00:14:13,970
You heard it here first, kids.
300
00:14:14,071 --> 00:14:15,893
NYPD.
Get away from her now.
301
00:14:15,977 --> 00:14:17,493
Yo, cops?
What the hell, Wheeler?
302
00:14:17,577 --> 00:14:18,630
I have no idea
what's going on.
303
00:14:18,715 --> 00:14:20,875
I do.
She set us up.
304
00:14:20,961 --> 00:14:23,649
Back off,
and shut your mouth.
305
00:14:23,735 --> 00:14:26,071
A frisky one.
Who the hell are you?
306
00:14:26,155 --> 00:14:27,207
NYPD.
307
00:14:27,293 --> 00:14:28,852
She told me you guys
invited her.
308
00:14:28,969 --> 00:14:30,250
Almost too easy.
309
00:14:30,336 --> 00:14:32,032
Why don't we talk
about this downtown?
310
00:14:32,116 --> 00:14:33,134
Go, now.
311
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,923
You okay?
312
00:14:41,008 --> 00:14:43,394
They just assaulted me
all over again,
313
00:14:43,850 --> 00:14:46,470
and the whole world
was watching.
314
00:14:52,804 --> 00:14:55,142
I know Willa the stunt queen
had some of y'all
315
00:14:55,226 --> 00:14:56,712
real shook... with her video.
Mm‐hmm.
316
00:14:56,797 --> 00:14:59,032
But she was just playing
the whole time, right, boo?
317
00:14:59,517 --> 00:15:02,423
Hey, guys, gotcha.
Aww. Aww.
318
00:15:02,546 --> 00:15:03,663
Love you.
Aw, love you.
319
00:15:03,748 --> 00:15:05,086
You heard it here first, kids.
320
00:15:05,172 --> 00:15:06,591
Is this girl credible,
321
00:15:06,988 --> 00:15:08,673
or is she just playing us
to gain followers?
322
00:15:08,758 --> 00:15:11,431
She's defaulting
to her online persona.
323
00:15:12,099 --> 00:15:13,850
Listen, this is
the social media version
324
00:15:13,934 --> 00:15:15,330
of texting your rapist
the next day.
325
00:15:15,413 --> 00:15:16,599
You remember that, Carisi.
326
00:15:16,683 --> 00:15:17,899
Yeah, I do.
327
00:15:17,985 --> 00:15:20,304
It's just different when you
know your jury's gonna see it.
328
00:15:20,854 --> 00:15:22,158
The boys have
lawyered up already?
329
00:15:22,241 --> 00:15:24,871
They're 21, and they make
more in a month
330
00:15:24,956 --> 00:15:27,938
than we do in a year combined.
What do you think?
331
00:15:29,597 --> 00:15:32,375
I didn't want you guys...
Whoa, whoa.
332
00:15:32,461 --> 00:15:34,347
Tate's right.
You need to tell people
333
00:15:34,432 --> 00:15:36,696
that little video of yours
was just a stunt.
334
00:15:36,780 --> 00:15:39,142
It literally was a stunt.
Tate.
335
00:15:39,787 --> 00:15:41,414
Counselor, Detective.
336
00:15:41,500 --> 00:15:44,422
I appreciate your attempt
to trap my clients,
337
00:15:44,663 --> 00:15:46,985
but there's nothing
incriminating here.
338
00:15:47,100 --> 00:15:48,988
If there was, they'd be
under arrest right now, huh?
339
00:15:49,072 --> 00:15:50,875
They're not under arrest yet.
340
00:15:51,335 --> 00:15:53,642
But they did try to coerce
Willa into absolving them,
341
00:15:53,806 --> 00:15:55,181
and then they streamed it live.
342
00:15:55,265 --> 00:15:56,806
She did absolve them.
343
00:15:57,706 --> 00:15:59,006
Live.
She was ambushed.
344
00:15:59,091 --> 00:16:00,212
They weren't supposed
to be there.
345
00:16:00,297 --> 00:16:02,149
Well, it's our house.
She was trespassing...
346
00:16:02,235 --> 00:16:03,563
Mm‐mm.
347
00:16:04,322 --> 00:16:05,341
Sorry.
348
00:16:05,427 --> 00:16:06,907
You have one weak tape,
349
00:16:07,138 --> 00:16:09,558
all right,
so let's look at all the tapes.
350
00:16:10,009 --> 00:16:12,595
One party video,
one deleted video,
351
00:16:12,679 --> 00:16:15,802
and one absolution video
that 3 million people liked.
352
00:16:16,006 --> 00:16:18,528
That still doesn't answer why
Wheeler reached out to Willa
353
00:16:18,613 --> 00:16:20,041
wanting to make an apology.
354
00:16:20,125 --> 00:16:23,624
Wheeler was there.
He saw how into us Willa was.
355
00:16:23,707 --> 00:16:26,929
He knows nothing happened
that she didn't want to happen.
356
00:16:27,014 --> 00:16:28,181
Tate.
No cap.
357
00:16:28,265 --> 00:16:30,253
The only reason
he apologized is
358
00:16:30,337 --> 00:16:31,691
he's worried about his image.
359
00:16:36,297 --> 00:16:37,649
First of all,
360
00:16:37,735 --> 00:16:40,254
I want your assurance that
my client is not a suspect.
361
00:16:40,340 --> 00:16:41,325
Yeah, Willa didn't name him,
362
00:16:41,409 --> 00:16:42,860
but it's
an ongoing investigation.
363
00:16:42,946 --> 00:16:44,830
Why don't you tell us what
happened that night, Diggy?
364
00:16:44,913 --> 00:16:46,157
Sit down.
365
00:16:47,784 --> 00:16:50,517
Um, I invited Willa over.
366
00:16:50,884 --> 00:16:54,352
We shot some content, and then
we all got into the hot tub.
367
00:16:54,437 --> 00:16:57,427
I had to take a call, so Tate
and Liam took her downstairs.
368
00:16:57,649 --> 00:17:00,229
Where they gang‐raped her.
They told me she was into it.
369
00:17:00,313 --> 00:17:01,541
That the three
of them were partying.
370
00:17:01,625 --> 00:17:03,688
Then why did you call
her to apologize?
371
00:17:03,774 --> 00:17:05,423
She was upset.
372
00:17:05,564 --> 00:17:07,914
I'd invited her.
I felt responsible.
373
00:17:10,277 --> 00:17:12,203
It's not easy running
a house like this.
374
00:17:12,817 --> 00:17:14,578
Everybody second‐guessing you.
375
00:17:15,066 --> 00:17:16,650
I try really hard
to be the good guy,
376
00:17:16,749 --> 00:17:18,125
and all I get is burned.
377
00:17:20,154 --> 00:17:21,873
So the boys
are backing each other up.
378
00:17:21,957 --> 00:17:23,173
That's not a surprise.
No, it's not.
379
00:17:23,258 --> 00:17:25,118
But this is a she said,
deleted what she said,
380
00:17:25,203 --> 00:17:26,642
and then backtracked
what she said.
381
00:17:26,727 --> 00:17:29,082
Did anybody else in the house
that night see anything?
382
00:17:29,205 --> 00:17:30,958
If they did,
they're not talking.
383
00:17:31,041 --> 00:17:32,161
The house is trending,
384
00:17:32,244 --> 00:17:33,730
so nobody wants
to get kicked out right now.
385
00:17:33,815 --> 00:17:35,328
Everybody there posts 24/7.
386
00:17:35,413 --> 00:17:36,800
Have we gone through
all their videos?
387
00:17:36,884 --> 00:17:38,972
They all show Willa having
a great time with these guys.
388
00:17:39,057 --> 00:17:40,650
Singing,
dancing, in the hot tub.
389
00:17:40,734 --> 00:17:42,261
I got you a subpoena
for the house security cameras.
390
00:17:42,346 --> 00:17:43,736
Where are we on that?
Nowhere.
391
00:17:43,820 --> 00:17:45,508
There's no cameras
in the bedrooms.
392
00:17:45,771 --> 00:17:46,829
Also not a surprise,
393
00:17:46,914 --> 00:17:49,454
but the defense is gonna muddy
this up six ways from Sunday.
394
00:17:49,539 --> 00:17:51,509
Hang on.
I just got a text from Jet.
395
00:17:53,808 --> 00:17:55,829
Liam and Tate
made another video.
396
00:17:58,028 --> 00:17:59,182
We're gonna get real
for a minute
397
00:17:59,266 --> 00:18:00,917
about what actually happened
with Willa.
398
00:18:01,001 --> 00:18:02,501
It's time for us
to come clean.
399
00:18:02,586 --> 00:18:03,739
The truth is...
400
00:18:03,980 --> 00:18:05,682
We double‐teamed
that pick‐me girl.
401
00:18:05,767 --> 00:18:06,787
And if she said
she didn't want it,
402
00:18:06,871 --> 00:18:07,922
she's lying.
You know why?
403
00:18:08,007 --> 00:18:09,059
Well, she couldn't
say anything.
404
00:18:09,144 --> 00:18:11,104
Her mouth was too full.
405
00:18:11,990 --> 00:18:15,079
Oh, and the cops
and that dumbass DA?
406
00:18:15,163 --> 00:18:16,432
Yeah, they brought us down
to the station,
407
00:18:16,517 --> 00:18:17,803
but had to let us go.
408
00:18:18,020 --> 00:18:20,123
Enemies of the people.
409
00:18:20,208 --> 00:18:21,665
Stay woke.
Stay vigilant.
410
00:18:21,750 --> 00:18:23,096
Peace.
Wheelhouse.
411
00:18:23,182 --> 00:18:24,766
Please tell me that
that's an admission of rape.
412
00:18:24,849 --> 00:18:26,869
That affect... enough
to bury them with the jury.
413
00:18:26,953 --> 00:18:27,743
Let's pick them up.
414
00:18:27,828 --> 00:18:29,368
Go.
415
00:18:32,337 --> 00:18:34,939
Docket #24516.
416
00:18:35,023 --> 00:18:37,657
People versus Tate
and Liam Rivers.
417
00:18:37,742 --> 00:18:39,892
Tell them to put
the phones down.
418
00:18:40,906 --> 00:18:42,353
Everyone,
turn off your phones.
419
00:18:42,438 --> 00:18:45,741
On the charges of rape one
and unlawful imprisonment,
420
00:18:45,826 --> 00:18:47,634
how do you plead?
Not guilty, Your Honor.
421
00:18:47,719 --> 00:18:48,743
People on bail.
422
00:18:48,828 --> 00:18:50,197
We request $3 million,
Your Honor,
423
00:18:50,345 --> 00:18:52,337
and also that the defendants
surrender their passports.
424
00:18:52,422 --> 00:18:53,368
They have no record.
425
00:18:53,453 --> 00:18:55,104
They're respected members
of our community,
426
00:18:55,188 --> 00:18:57,104
and they're looking forward
to proving their innocence.
427
00:18:57,188 --> 00:18:59,759
Well, that isn't
what I saw in the video.
428
00:18:59,992 --> 00:19:02,046
I'd advise your clients
not to litigate this
429
00:19:02,131 --> 00:19:05,145
on social media,
TikTok, YouTube.
430
00:19:05,230 --> 00:19:09,038
I don't care what tube.
Bail is set at 1 million.
431
00:19:11,198 --> 00:19:12,767
Thanks again for
your support.
432
00:19:12,852 --> 00:19:14,750
And remember,
this is not our fault.
433
00:19:14,836 --> 00:19:17,037
Not even Willa's, you know?
She didn't go to the cops.
434
00:19:17,122 --> 00:19:19,509
They went to her,
so blame them.
435
00:19:19,594 --> 00:19:21,650
You want a selfie, huh? Yeah.
Let's go, let's go!
436
00:19:21,734 --> 00:19:22,753
Didn't the judge
just tell them
437
00:19:22,837 --> 00:19:24,720
not to litigate this
on social media?
438
00:19:24,805 --> 00:19:25,618
They don't know
the difference
439
00:19:25,703 --> 00:19:27,490
between the real world
and the virtual world.
440
00:19:27,576 --> 00:19:28,595
Look!
It's that dumbass prosecutor.
441
00:19:28,679 --> 00:19:31,567
With the cops in the video.
Free Tate and Liam!
442
00:19:31,652 --> 00:19:33,802
Boo!
Hey.
443
00:19:33,887 --> 00:19:34,572
Are you guys kidding me
right now?
444
00:19:34,655 --> 00:19:36,884
Guys.
This is great content.
445
00:19:36,969 --> 00:19:38,814
Rollins, let's go, let's go.
Guys, back off.
446
00:19:38,897 --> 00:19:40,150
Hey, Wheelhouse fans,
let's be cool.
447
00:19:40,233 --> 00:19:42,288
Guys, back off!
Whoa!
448
00:19:42,372 --> 00:19:43,993
Hey, I'm really sorry, man.
449
00:19:44,078 --> 00:19:46,220
Yeah, well,
your fans aren't.
450
00:19:46,305 --> 00:19:47,490
Are you okay?
451
00:19:47,575 --> 00:19:48,694
Come on.
Let's get out of here.
452
00:19:48,778 --> 00:19:51,728
Wheelhouse!
Wheelhouse!
453
00:19:57,814 --> 00:20:00,704
Your Honor, either this case will be tried
in the court of TikTok
454
00:20:00,788 --> 00:20:02,394
or in a court of law.
455
00:20:02,479 --> 00:20:04,324
The defendants were
already warned at arraignment.
456
00:20:04,407 --> 00:20:05,267
It's time for a gag order.
457
00:20:05,351 --> 00:20:07,471
Is this about a wound
to the judicial process
458
00:20:07,555 --> 00:20:09,400
or Counselor Carisi's ego?
459
00:20:09,830 --> 00:20:11,907
Now, a gag order
would deprive my clients
460
00:20:11,992 --> 00:20:14,375
of their livelihood and
their First Amendment rights.
461
00:20:14,554 --> 00:20:16,422
It should suffice
to instruct the jury
462
00:20:16,507 --> 00:20:17,892
to stay off social media.
463
00:20:17,976 --> 00:20:20,196
Respectfully, you can
instruct all you want,
464
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,821
Your Honor, but the jury
can't stay off of social media.
465
00:20:22,906 --> 00:20:25,221
They're already googling
every witness in the elevator
466
00:20:25,306 --> 00:20:26,228
on the way down
to Center Street.
467
00:20:26,313 --> 00:20:28,099
I agree, it's an issue.
468
00:20:28,277 --> 00:20:31,314
While I can't ban everybody
from the internet,
469
00:20:31,398 --> 00:20:33,455
I can strongly admonish
all parties
470
00:20:33,540 --> 00:20:36,429
from posting
anything about the case.
471
00:20:36,579 --> 00:20:39,402
You're inching towards being
charged with inciting a riot.
472
00:20:39,486 --> 00:20:40,767
Is that understood, gentlemen?
473
00:20:43,355 --> 00:20:46,290
Totally.
Is that a "yes," Mr. Rivers?
474
00:20:48,790 --> 00:20:50,556
Yes, Your Honor.
Yes, Your Honor.
475
00:20:52,752 --> 00:20:54,272
Judge didn't go
for a gag order?
476
00:20:54,357 --> 00:20:56,411
Not officially, but she did
put everyone on notice.
477
00:20:56,496 --> 00:20:58,983
I want to tell my fans
I can't post anything
478
00:20:59,068 --> 00:21:00,221
until the trial is over.
479
00:21:00,306 --> 00:21:03,260
The arc of the moral universe
bends towards justice, and...
480
00:21:03,346 --> 00:21:04,565
Willa, how's everything going?
481
00:21:04,650 --> 00:21:06,134
You really can't be
talking to her.
482
00:21:06,219 --> 00:21:07,095
I get that.
483
00:21:07,180 --> 00:21:08,650
I‐I just want to say
that I'm sorry
484
00:21:08,734 --> 00:21:10,268
about what happened
out there the other day.
485
00:21:10,352 --> 00:21:12,306
That's not our fanbase.
Really?
486
00:21:12,519 --> 00:21:14,838
Isn't that
the same fanbase that's rooting
487
00:21:14,923 --> 00:21:16,910
for Tate and Liam
to get away with raping me?
488
00:21:16,993 --> 00:21:18,415
Let's go, Willa.
489
00:21:19,330 --> 00:21:21,454
I really am sorry.
Are you?
490
00:21:21,583 --> 00:21:23,603
Then why are you testifying
for those guys?
491
00:21:23,727 --> 00:21:25,079
They told me
nothing happened.
492
00:21:25,164 --> 00:21:26,704
You're a smart kid, Wheeler.
493
00:21:26,820 --> 00:21:29,742
Ask yourself,
who has more reason to lie?
494
00:21:38,646 --> 00:21:40,934
Captain Benson,
in your experience,
495
00:21:41,019 --> 00:21:43,942
is it unusual for a victim to
come forward on social media?
496
00:21:44,027 --> 00:21:45,179
Actually, no.
497
00:21:45,518 --> 00:21:50,118
Public online disclosures are
becoming more and more common.
498
00:21:50,203 --> 00:21:52,657
Many survivors like to disclose
499
00:21:52,742 --> 00:21:54,451
within their social media
networks,
500
00:21:54,536 --> 00:21:58,625
because it gives them
an enhanced sense of control.
501
00:21:58,711 --> 00:22:01,633
And, in Willa Bartola's case,
that was TikTok.
502
00:22:01,718 --> 00:22:03,835
But despite having recorded
503
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:05,972
the video minutes
after the assault,
504
00:22:06,057 --> 00:22:07,931
Willa didn't post it
until a week later.
505
00:22:08,061 --> 00:22:10,317
And that's
not unusual either.
506
00:22:10,401 --> 00:22:12,221
Willa was traumatized.
507
00:22:12,305 --> 00:22:15,150
She was trying to stay in
the good graces of her rapist.
508
00:22:15,234 --> 00:22:18,243
Victims can take far longer
to come forward.
509
00:22:18,557 --> 00:22:20,986
Months.
Even... even years.
510
00:22:21,279 --> 00:22:22,454
Thank you, Captain.
511
00:22:23,722 --> 00:22:25,643
So she waited a week.
512
00:22:25,728 --> 00:22:30,323
Maybe that's not unusual,
but it does happen to coincide
513
00:22:30,407 --> 00:22:31,593
with the day that she learned
514
00:22:31,676 --> 00:22:34,009
that she wasn't invited
to join the house.
515
00:22:34,094 --> 00:22:36,715
Doesn't that give her
another motive?
516
00:22:36,993 --> 00:22:39,986
In my experience
as an SVU captain,
517
00:22:40,070 --> 00:22:42,614
I believe that she was
reacting to her assault.
518
00:22:42,699 --> 00:22:43,697
But you're positive
519
00:22:43,781 --> 00:22:46,069
that she wasn't reacting
in anger to being rejected?
520
00:22:46,154 --> 00:22:47,775
Objection.
Overruled.
521
00:22:47,859 --> 00:22:49,125
The witness may answer.
522
00:22:49,211 --> 00:22:53,142
There are many reasons
why a survivor delays reporting.
523
00:22:53,354 --> 00:22:54,905
Including trying to
get more followers?
524
00:22:54,990 --> 00:22:56,643
I don't think that was
the case here.
525
00:22:56,727 --> 00:22:58,314
But you can't know that
for sure.
526
00:23:04,394 --> 00:23:05,778
It was late.
527
00:23:05,864 --> 00:23:07,814
I hadn't seen Willa
for a while.
528
00:23:08,086 --> 00:23:11,993
I went looking for her.
Found her in a bathroom.
529
00:23:12,263 --> 00:23:15,750
A mess.
Crying.
530
00:23:15,836 --> 00:23:17,421
And what did she tell
you had happened?
531
00:23:17,767 --> 00:23:19,686
That Tate and Liam
trapped her in a bedroom
532
00:23:19,771 --> 00:23:21,181
and assaulted her.
533
00:23:21,542 --> 00:23:23,236
I told her that
we should get a rape kit.
534
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:24,372
But she refused.
535
00:23:24,457 --> 00:23:26,056
She was having
a panic attack.
536
00:23:26,814 --> 00:23:28,946
I should have called
911 myself.
537
00:23:29,377 --> 00:23:30,806
Willa's my girl.
538
00:23:31,958 --> 00:23:34,009
I've never seen her
so upset.
539
00:23:40,849 --> 00:23:43,935
Did you see Tate and Liam
do anything to Willa?
540
00:23:44,020 --> 00:23:46,142
I wasn't in the bedroom.
No.
541
00:23:46,227 --> 00:23:47,577
You parted
with the Wheelhouse
542
00:23:47,663 --> 00:23:49,482
a few months ago on bad terms?
543
00:23:49,567 --> 00:23:50,681
You could say that.
544
00:23:50,766 --> 00:23:52,986
So bad that you wiped
all collabs from your profile?
545
00:23:53,070 --> 00:23:54,723
Just Tate and Liam's.
546
00:23:54,808 --> 00:23:56,689
I've got no issue
with Diggy Wheeler.
547
00:23:56,779 --> 00:23:59,243
Oh, so you do have a problem
with Tate and Liam?
548
00:23:59,420 --> 00:24:01,140
Yeah, I got a problem.
549
00:24:01,278 --> 00:24:03,509
They're homophobic,
misogynistic asses.
550
00:24:03,594 --> 00:24:05,346
Well, I don't know, folks.
Does that sound
551
00:24:05,431 --> 00:24:07,384
like the witness
has a bias against my client?
552
00:24:07,468 --> 00:24:08,939
Your Honor?
Mr. Swope.
553
00:24:09,023 --> 00:24:10,336
I am so sorry.
554
00:24:11,811 --> 00:24:13,364
But you don't like them, right?
555
00:24:13,449 --> 00:24:15,633
And that has affected
your testimony today.
556
00:24:15,718 --> 00:24:18,290
Your Honor.
Withdrawn.
557
00:24:18,590 --> 00:24:19,946
Nothing further.
558
00:24:21,469 --> 00:24:26,654
You may step down.
Mr. Carisi, next witness.
559
00:24:26,740 --> 00:24:29,095
The people call
Willa Bartola.
560
00:24:33,335 --> 00:24:35,154
It's time for us
to come clean.
561
00:24:35,263 --> 00:24:36,883
The truth is...
562
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:38,747
We double‐teamed
that pick‐me girl.
563
00:24:38,830 --> 00:24:39,931
And if she said
she didn't want it,
564
00:24:40,015 --> 00:24:41,031
she's lying.
You know why?
565
00:24:41,116 --> 00:24:41,788
Well, she couldn't
say anything.
566
00:24:41,874 --> 00:24:43,750
Mm.
Her mouth was too full.
567
00:24:45,142 --> 00:24:46,820
That must be painful
to watch.
568
00:24:47,693 --> 00:24:49,112
It was.
569
00:24:49,461 --> 00:24:51,604
And I know that people think
570
00:24:51,689 --> 00:24:53,930
I did all of this
for followers,
571
00:24:54,095 --> 00:24:57,288
but I would never
falsely accuse anyone of rape.
572
00:24:58,089 --> 00:25:00,376
Thank you
for coming forward, Willa.
573
00:25:00,470 --> 00:25:01,992
I know this hasn't been easy.
574
00:25:04,903 --> 00:25:08,928
Ms. Bartola, the day
you visited the Wheelhouse,
575
00:25:09,192 --> 00:25:11,016
you made a video
with Tate and Liam.
576
00:25:11,101 --> 00:25:12,898
Isn't that right?
Yes.
577
00:25:13,118 --> 00:25:14,750
And after that video
went viral,
578
00:25:14,835 --> 00:25:16,383
you gained a million followers
579
00:25:16,468 --> 00:25:19,500
and received two dozen
brand ambassador offers.
580
00:25:20,377 --> 00:25:21,963
You must have been riding high.
581
00:25:22,048 --> 00:25:23,288
Half of me was.
582
00:25:23,386 --> 00:25:25,440
Because the other half of you
wanted more followers?
583
00:25:25,641 --> 00:25:27,510
No, I‐I lost followers.
584
00:25:27,595 --> 00:25:31,818
I was bullied, harassed.
So your strategy backfired.
585
00:25:31,903 --> 00:25:34,038
I guess that's why
you deleted it?
586
00:25:35,088 --> 00:25:36,250
Withdrawn.
587
00:25:37,648 --> 00:25:39,016
Let me ask you.
588
00:25:39,101 --> 00:25:40,930
You're familiar
with a TikTok star
589
00:25:41,015 --> 00:25:43,484
from an L. A. content house
named Blair Brooks?
590
00:25:44,090 --> 00:25:45,746
Yes, but I don't know her.
591
00:25:45,830 --> 00:25:47,313
But you've seen
her videos though?
592
00:25:48,890 --> 00:25:51,086
Yeah.
Exhibit H.
593
00:25:51,996 --> 00:25:54,923
A 12‐minute YouTube clip
posted by Blair Brooks
594
00:25:55,008 --> 00:25:56,493
the week before you
visited the Wheelhouse.
595
00:25:56,577 --> 00:25:57,750
Objection.
Relevance.
596
00:25:57,835 --> 00:25:58,852
Well, in the video,
597
00:25:58,936 --> 00:26:01,290
Blair accuses a member
of her house of rape.
598
00:26:01,765 --> 00:26:03,930
I would like Willa to read
the comment she wrote.
599
00:26:04,954 --> 00:26:06,031
I'll allow.
600
00:26:11,915 --> 00:26:14,770
"Love to see you
speak out about this dirtbag.
601
00:26:14,855 --> 00:26:17,023
"Take him down.
Cancel him.
602
00:26:18,195 --> 00:26:20,281
Hope you get
all his followers."
603
00:26:21,061 --> 00:26:22,477
After posting her video,
604
00:26:22,561 --> 00:26:25,518
Blair gained
2 million new followers.
605
00:26:25,727 --> 00:26:29,314
The day you liked Blair's video
you started DMing with Tate.
606
00:26:29,398 --> 00:26:30,269
At the house,
607
00:26:30,354 --> 00:26:32,758
the three of you made
sexually suggestive videos.
608
00:26:32,924 --> 00:26:34,883
You flirted with them
in a hot tub.
609
00:26:35,343 --> 00:26:39,166
Were you setting them up
all this time?
610
00:26:39,392 --> 00:26:40,611
Of course not.
611
00:26:40,765 --> 00:26:42,986
Diggy Wheeler invited me
to the house.
612
00:26:43,070 --> 00:26:45,282
But you did send
sexual DMs to Tate?
613
00:26:45,367 --> 00:26:46,413
That was a mistake.
614
00:26:46,499 --> 00:26:49,121
Well, you seem to be
making a lot of them.
615
00:26:49,205 --> 00:26:53,096
Ms. Bartola, put yourself
in the mindset of this jury.
616
00:26:53,703 --> 00:26:56,484
You earn your living
making up content.
617
00:26:56,972 --> 00:27:00,875
Well, how can you expect
these good people to know
618
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,381
which of your videos are real
619
00:27:03,588 --> 00:27:05,750
and which are modern‐day
performance art?
620
00:27:17,848 --> 00:27:20,436
They think I'm going through
all of this to get famous?
621
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:21,705
No, it's just
the defense's strategy.
622
00:27:21,789 --> 00:27:22,900
It doesn't mean
the jury believes it.
623
00:27:22,983 --> 00:27:25,906
Hey, what are you looking at?
How do you sleep at night,
624
00:27:25,991 --> 00:27:28,000
after you let
your superstar bros rape me?
625
00:27:28,085 --> 00:27:29,413
I didn't do that!
No?
626
00:27:29,499 --> 00:27:31,858
They told me that's why you
invited me to the house.
627
00:27:31,942 --> 00:27:33,930
Wait, what?
Willa, he's not worth it.
628
00:27:34,013 --> 00:27:35,124
Come on.
629
00:27:35,814 --> 00:27:38,443
I would never set up any girl
like that, especially Willa.
630
00:27:39,278 --> 00:27:40,594
You know what, Diggy,
you keep saying
631
00:27:40,677 --> 00:27:41,897
that you care about her.
632
00:27:42,266 --> 00:27:44,302
But you threw her
to those dogs.
633
00:27:51,248 --> 00:27:53,102
Carisi.
I'm coming, I'm coming.
634
00:27:53,186 --> 00:27:54,594
Don't go anywhere.
No. Carisi,
635
00:27:54,679 --> 00:27:56,068
you gotta look at this.
636
00:27:58,689 --> 00:28:00,608
What?
Look.
637
00:28:00,701 --> 00:28:02,451
Wheeler's livestreaming.
638
00:28:02,721 --> 00:28:04,272
It took me too long
to realize it,
639
00:28:04,375 --> 00:28:06,788
but I failed
to look out for Willa.
640
00:28:07,180 --> 00:28:09,333
Tate and Liam did assault her.
641
00:28:09,417 --> 00:28:11,305
I didn't want to see
that side of them.
642
00:28:11,473 --> 00:28:13,811
I should have believed Willa
and Kavon, from the start.
643
00:28:14,895 --> 00:28:17,568
No means no.
There's no excuse.
644
00:28:17,835 --> 00:28:19,989
Willa, stay strong.
645
00:28:20,436 --> 00:28:24,054
I hope someday you'll find it
in your heart to forgive me.
646
00:28:24,518 --> 00:28:26,663
I mean this is
a good thing, right?
647
00:28:27,460 --> 00:28:28,779
No, not really.
648
00:28:28,865 --> 00:28:30,411
After the defense sees this,
649
00:28:30,496 --> 00:28:31,816
they're gonna move
for a mistrial.
650
00:28:31,997 --> 00:28:33,258
And then,
after what happened today,
651
00:28:33,342 --> 00:28:35,749
there's no chance that Willa's
gonna agree to testify again.
652
00:28:46,490 --> 00:28:49,949
Mr. Swope, I seem to remember
issuing a rather
653
00:28:50,034 --> 00:28:53,683
stern warning about the use of
social media in this case.
654
00:28:53,769 --> 00:28:56,723
But then I thought,
"Maybe I imagined it."
655
00:28:56,902 --> 00:28:59,257
Your Honor, we had no
prior knowledge to this tape.
656
00:28:59,342 --> 00:29:01,162
And, although
we have listed Mr. Wheeler
657
00:29:01,323 --> 00:29:02,074
as a defense witness,
658
00:29:02,157 --> 00:29:04,230
obviously that is
no longer the case.
659
00:29:04,315 --> 00:29:06,300
Mr. Wheeler?
I'm sorry.
660
00:29:06,539 --> 00:29:08,006
My fans were barraging me
with questions.
661
00:29:08,089 --> 00:29:09,087
I owed them an answer.
662
00:29:09,172 --> 00:29:10,701
But I deleted the video,
Your Honor.
663
00:29:10,786 --> 00:29:11,856
As if that helps.
664
00:29:11,942 --> 00:29:13,692
Given that there's no way
to ensure the jury
665
00:29:13,778 --> 00:29:16,184
hasn't seen the video,
we move for a mistrial.
666
00:29:16,269 --> 00:29:18,423
The jury has seen
far worse, Your Honor.
667
00:29:18,626 --> 00:29:20,949
And now that the defense
is no longer interested
668
00:29:21,087 --> 00:29:22,262
in Mr. Wheeler's testimony,
669
00:29:22,347 --> 00:29:25,012
I'll be calling him as
a witness for the prosecution.
670
00:29:25,191 --> 00:29:27,278
Your Honor, this is the first
I'm hearing of this.
671
00:29:27,369 --> 00:29:29,155
My client has not agreed
to testify.
672
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:30,326
I'm prepared to compel him.
673
00:29:30,434 --> 00:29:31,709
Mr. Wheeler's
shifting testimony
674
00:29:31,794 --> 00:29:34,019
is inherently unreliable,
and he obviously has
675
00:29:34,105 --> 00:29:36,040
an axe to grind
with his now former housemates.
676
00:29:36,125 --> 00:29:39,647
You'll have your opportunity
to cross‐examine, Mr. Swope.
677
00:29:39,731 --> 00:29:42,692
I'm denying defense's motion
for a mistrial.
678
00:29:42,778 --> 00:29:44,887
Mr. Carisi,
call your next witness.
679
00:29:48,268 --> 00:29:51,356
No means no.
There's no excuse.
680
00:29:51,455 --> 00:29:53,075
Willa, stay strong.
681
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,980
I hope someday you'll find it
in your heart to forgive me.
682
00:29:56,065 --> 00:29:58,162
Mr. Wheeler,
why did you make that video?
683
00:29:58,442 --> 00:30:00,326
Because I believe
Willa was sexually assaulted
684
00:30:00,411 --> 00:30:02,493
by Tate and Liam.
Objection.
685
00:30:02,755 --> 00:30:03,998
Sustained.
686
00:30:04,082 --> 00:30:06,635
Mr. Wheeler, you were
originally supposed to be
687
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:07,965
a witness for the defense.
688
00:30:08,050 --> 00:30:10,840
Can you explain why you're now
testifying for the prosecution?
689
00:30:10,925 --> 00:30:14,450
Yes, I saw Willa
after she was cross‐examined.
690
00:30:14,567 --> 00:30:18,115
She was shaking, raw, hurt.
691
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:19,517
I have a lot of experience
692
00:30:19,602 --> 00:30:21,255
auditioning performers
for my house,
693
00:30:21,339 --> 00:30:23,594
and to be honest, she's not
that good of an actress.
694
00:30:23,679 --> 00:30:24,709
Sorry, Willa.
695
00:30:24,794 --> 00:30:26,684
But you did invite her
to the house?
696
00:30:26,769 --> 00:30:27,520
Yeah.
697
00:30:27,605 --> 00:30:30,260
I thought she had a special
quality, that she'd fit in.
698
00:30:30,380 --> 00:30:32,634
But you didn't
ask her to join... why?
699
00:30:32,733 --> 00:30:34,686
The next morning,
Tate and Liam told me
700
00:30:34,771 --> 00:30:36,627
she'd said negative things
about me.
701
00:30:36,712 --> 00:30:39,794
That she was toxic,
had bad energy.
702
00:30:40,126 --> 00:30:42,715
But later that day,
I overheard them talking about
703
00:30:43,104 --> 00:30:44,840
"shutting that bitch down."
704
00:30:46,037 --> 00:30:47,395
What did you take
that to mean?
705
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,169
They were trying to discredit
any allegation she might make.
706
00:30:50,653 --> 00:30:52,740
I regret not telling
the police that earlier.
707
00:30:53,365 --> 00:30:56,153
Well, thank you for coming
forward now, Mr. Wheeler.
708
00:30:57,367 --> 00:30:59,488
In the past,
when you've invited
709
00:30:59,573 --> 00:31:01,861
female content providers
to the house,
710
00:31:01,945 --> 00:31:03,833
they didn't provide
anything more
711
00:31:03,957 --> 00:31:05,910
than content to you,
did they?
712
00:31:05,994 --> 00:31:07,255
Not really.
No.
713
00:31:07,402 --> 00:31:10,365
But a lot of them hooked up
with Tate and/or Liam, right?
714
00:31:11,151 --> 00:31:12,403
I guess.
715
00:31:12,691 --> 00:31:15,419
All the women like you,
but not that way.
716
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,678
You're a good guy,
you do everything by the book,
717
00:31:18,762 --> 00:31:21,576
and then the women come in,
and they don't even see you.
718
00:31:21,971 --> 00:31:23,824
That must gnaw away at you
over time.
719
00:31:23,909 --> 00:31:26,029
Objection.
Witness may answer,
720
00:31:26,115 --> 00:31:27,762
but move along, Mr. Swope.
721
00:31:28,615 --> 00:31:30,635
I'm not there to hook up.
I run the house.
722
00:31:30,721 --> 00:31:32,420
It wouldn't be professional
to cross those lines.
723
00:31:32,503 --> 00:31:34,289
So you do all the work,
and then my clients
724
00:31:34,375 --> 00:31:35,498
get all the goodies.
725
00:31:36,060 --> 00:31:37,547
And then you met Willa.
726
00:31:37,778 --> 00:31:39,380
She must have
seemed special to you.
727
00:31:40,435 --> 00:31:41,989
Defense exhibit J.
728
00:31:42,278 --> 00:31:46,635
27 direct messages
sent by Diggy to Willa.
729
00:31:46,873 --> 00:31:49,642
All of them telling Willa
how much you love her content
730
00:31:49,726 --> 00:31:51,726
and how you're looking forward
to meeting with her.
731
00:31:51,851 --> 00:31:53,059
These all yours?
732
00:31:53,836 --> 00:31:54,836
Yes.
733
00:31:54,980 --> 00:31:57,534
So when the four of you
were in the hot tub,
734
00:31:57,618 --> 00:32:00,934
and Willa was flirting
with Tate and Liam,
735
00:32:01,108 --> 00:32:02,587
how much of that hurt
your feelings?
736
00:32:02,673 --> 00:32:06,564
Objection, Your Honor.
Mr. Swope, move on.
737
00:32:06,859 --> 00:32:09,859
Mr. Wheeler,
you reached out to Willa
738
00:32:09,953 --> 00:32:12,474
after she posted
her rape video.
739
00:32:12,847 --> 00:32:15,135
Now was that just an excuse
to see her again?
740
00:32:15,243 --> 00:32:17,501
No, I legitimately felt bad
about what had happened to her.
741
00:32:17,586 --> 00:32:18,771
Bad or angry?
742
00:32:18,856 --> 00:32:20,317
Because we have a video
where she gets
743
00:32:20,401 --> 00:32:22,825
out of a hot tub,
you put a towel over her.
744
00:32:22,910 --> 00:32:24,292
I was trying to take
care of her.
745
00:32:24,377 --> 00:32:26,205
Oh, you weren't trying
to get her into your room?
746
00:32:26,289 --> 00:32:27,540
No!
747
00:32:27,741 --> 00:32:29,878
She shouldn't have gone
into anybody's room.
748
00:32:29,964 --> 00:32:31,592
She was drunk.
I mean, she wasn't a partier.
749
00:32:31,675 --> 00:32:33,285
But you must have seen
other girls
750
00:32:33,369 --> 00:32:34,955
go into Tate and Liam's room.
751
00:32:35,072 --> 00:32:37,621
Maybe a little high.
Did you object?
752
00:32:38,142 --> 00:32:40,061
I don't... I don't know.
Hmm.
753
00:32:40,153 --> 00:32:41,246
You didn't.
754
00:32:41,980 --> 00:32:44,738
See, it's not that
you're such a great guy.
755
00:32:45,233 --> 00:32:47,222
You just didn't like
any of those other girls
756
00:32:47,307 --> 00:32:48,855
the way that you liked Willa.
757
00:32:49,059 --> 00:32:52,328
You're jealous that she wanted
my clients and not you.
758
00:32:52,413 --> 00:32:54,255
She didn't want them.
How do you know that?
759
00:32:54,997 --> 00:32:57,742
Is that because
you thought she liked you?
760
00:32:57,827 --> 00:32:58,880
She did like me.
761
00:32:58,963 --> 00:33:02,854
And you guys knew that,
but you... you had to screw me,
762
00:33:02,938 --> 00:33:03,855
show me who's really the boss.
763
00:33:03,940 --> 00:33:05,559
Okay. Mr. Wheeler,
just answer the question.
764
00:33:05,644 --> 00:33:06,962
You kept saying
she was bad news.
765
00:33:07,048 --> 00:33:08,500
Your Honor,
I think we need a recess.
766
00:33:08,585 --> 00:33:09,502
I don't need a recess.
767
00:33:09,587 --> 00:33:11,566
I need these guys to know
that I know the truth.
768
00:33:11,813 --> 00:33:12,980
You raped her
769
00:33:13,066 --> 00:33:16,000
because you wanted me to know
that you were the big dogs.
770
00:33:16,085 --> 00:33:19,073
Mr. Wheeler.
Oh, you're laughing at me?
771
00:33:19,157 --> 00:33:22,013
You guys treat everyone
around you like crap,
772
00:33:22,098 --> 00:33:23,683
but you're
the real pieces of crap.
773
00:33:23,946 --> 00:33:24,897
Mr. Wheeler...
774
00:33:24,981 --> 00:33:26,535
How many girls have I walked
out of the house
775
00:33:26,618 --> 00:33:29,019
the next morning in tears?
I covered for you.
776
00:33:29,105 --> 00:33:31,269
Every time you screwed up,
I fixed it.
777
00:33:31,369 --> 00:33:32,320
And then you repay me
778
00:33:32,424 --> 00:33:34,884
by assaulting the one girl
I really cared about.
779
00:33:34,969 --> 00:33:36,613
Okay!
That's enough.
780
00:33:36,784 --> 00:33:38,878
Jury will disregard.
781
00:33:39,159 --> 00:33:41,230
Mr. Wheeler,
I'm holding you in contempt.
782
00:33:41,316 --> 00:33:44,670
Bailiff,
take Mr. Wheeler into holding.
783
00:33:54,049 --> 00:33:55,582
Approach.
784
00:33:59,595 --> 00:34:02,355
Your Honor, despite these
late‐in‐the‐game histrionics,
785
00:34:02,441 --> 00:34:04,433
the prosecution has failed
to make a case.
786
00:34:04,519 --> 00:34:06,589
No rape kit.
No police report.
787
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:08,050
At this time, we move for
788
00:34:08,135 --> 00:34:09,956
a trial order motion
for dismissal.
789
00:34:10,041 --> 00:34:11,621
In other words,
you don't have a defense,
790
00:34:11,706 --> 00:34:13,128
and there's no chance
that he's gonna
791
00:34:13,213 --> 00:34:14,536
put his knucklehead clients
on the stand.
792
00:34:14,619 --> 00:34:16,074
Okay, enough, both of you.
793
00:34:16,159 --> 00:34:19,199
I will not
declare a mistrial,
794
00:34:19,284 --> 00:34:21,456
and I will not dismiss
this case.
795
00:34:21,815 --> 00:34:22,980
Mr. Carisi?
796
00:34:23,630 --> 00:34:24,980
The prosecution rests,
Your Honor.
797
00:34:25,065 --> 00:34:26,253
Mr. Swope?
798
00:34:26,338 --> 00:34:27,590
The defense rests,
Your Honor.
799
00:34:27,952 --> 00:34:30,050
Then this case
goes to the jury.
800
00:34:44,925 --> 00:34:47,309
So the judge held Wheeler
in contempt?
801
00:34:47,393 --> 00:34:48,871
Yeah, and I don't blame her.
802
00:34:48,956 --> 00:34:51,371
You know, Wheeler made it all
about himself, not Willa.
803
00:34:51,456 --> 00:34:52,394
And the bright side is,
804
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,400
Carisi feels
like Wheeler made his case,
805
00:34:54,485 --> 00:34:56,690
'cause Wheeler also mentioned
that there are other girls
806
00:34:56,775 --> 00:34:58,777
that Tate and Liam
may have assaulted.
807
00:34:59,188 --> 00:35:00,472
Well,
we can put it out there.
808
00:35:00,557 --> 00:35:02,340
See if any victims
come forward.
809
00:35:03,500 --> 00:35:05,264
But the case has been public
for a while.
810
00:35:05,349 --> 00:35:06,456
Yeah.
811
00:35:06,985 --> 00:35:09,206
How's Carisi doing?
812
00:35:09,291 --> 00:35:13,016
I'm not sure, but I'll know
in about 20 minutes.
813
00:35:13,106 --> 00:35:14,737
Jury just came back.
814
00:35:17,525 --> 00:35:19,347
Elvis is in the house.
815
00:35:21,063 --> 00:35:22,550
Mr. Baktashi.
816
00:35:23,143 --> 00:35:24,809
My favorite vigilante.
817
00:35:25,952 --> 00:35:27,706
Thank you for coming in.
818
00:35:28,362 --> 00:35:29,648
It's funny.
819
00:35:29,731 --> 00:35:31,152
When I was protecting
my neighborhood,
820
00:35:31,235 --> 00:35:33,800
you called me a racist,
but now you need my help.
821
00:35:35,476 --> 00:35:36,675
I got one condition.
822
00:35:37,248 --> 00:35:39,237
That nobody can know
that you're here.
823
00:35:39,358 --> 00:35:42,000
Not the Albanians.
Not Albi Briscu.
824
00:35:42,085 --> 00:35:43,590
Just the opposite.
825
00:35:44,282 --> 00:35:46,269
When you finally
take that scumbag down,
826
00:35:46,431 --> 00:35:47,769
I want me
and the Dyckman Knights
827
00:35:47,855 --> 00:35:49,992
front and center with you
at that news conference.
828
00:35:51,856 --> 00:35:53,231
Done.
829
00:35:54,956 --> 00:35:57,012
So you know what happened
to Rita Lasku?
830
00:35:57,608 --> 00:36:00,547
She's being trafficked,
but she's not the only one.
831
00:36:02,686 --> 00:36:03,840
Take out your pen.
832
00:36:10,628 --> 00:36:12,996
The jury will now
read the verdict.
833
00:36:14,228 --> 00:36:16,652
On the charge
of unlawful imprisonment,
834
00:36:16,737 --> 00:36:19,440
we find the defendants
not guilty.
835
00:36:23,306 --> 00:36:25,871
I love you!
Order.
836
00:36:25,956 --> 00:36:28,534
Order!
837
00:36:31,701 --> 00:36:33,922
On the charge of rape
in the first degree,
838
00:36:34,195 --> 00:36:35,972
we find the defendants
839
00:36:37,137 --> 00:36:38,190
not guilty.
840
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,568
Order!
Order!
841
00:36:54,373 --> 00:36:56,121
I am so sorry.
842
00:36:59,007 --> 00:37:02,442
I got into social media
because I wanted people
843
00:37:02,527 --> 00:37:04,581
to think that's
what my life was like.
844
00:37:05,885 --> 00:37:07,940
And this is my actual life.
845
00:37:09,148 --> 00:37:10,840
Who wants to look at that?
846
00:37:21,286 --> 00:37:22,503
What happened?
847
00:37:23,034 --> 00:37:26,027
They were acquitted
on all charges.
848
00:37:26,264 --> 00:37:28,269
So I'm the only one
sitting in a cell right now?
849
00:37:28,706 --> 00:37:30,512
You did the right thing,
Diggy.
850
00:37:31,353 --> 00:37:33,784
And honestly, after you
went off on Tate and Liam,
851
00:37:35,550 --> 00:37:37,378
the jury knew
you were telling the truth.
852
00:37:38,663 --> 00:37:39,996
They just didn't care.
853
00:37:42,054 --> 00:37:44,184
I saw the way the women in
the jury were looking at them,
854
00:37:44,268 --> 00:37:45,894
like they always do.
855
00:37:46,163 --> 00:37:48,083
That one in the front
with the red hair,
856
00:37:48,409 --> 00:37:50,737
ready to lie down
and roll over.
857
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,074
You and me,
we never had a chance.
858
00:38:00,574 --> 00:38:02,476
Carisi.
Hey, I should have called.
859
00:38:02,568 --> 00:38:03,786
Are the girls are asleep?
860
00:38:03,871 --> 00:38:06,128
Yeah, come on in.
Sorry, I'm... this...
861
00:38:06,213 --> 00:38:08,543
this couldn't wait
till morning.
862
00:38:08,762 --> 00:38:10,815
You remember
the jury forewoman?
863
00:38:11,126 --> 00:38:12,106
The redhead.
864
00:38:12,190 --> 00:38:13,909
She seemed giddy
about the whole thing.
865
00:38:13,992 --> 00:38:15,465
Yeah, that's exactly
what I thought,
866
00:38:15,550 --> 00:38:17,184
so I did some digging.
867
00:38:17,807 --> 00:38:19,612
Wait, is that her
with Tate and Liam?
868
00:38:19,697 --> 00:38:21,496
Yeah, outside the courthouse
right after
869
00:38:21,581 --> 00:38:23,561
she and the rest of the jurors
found him not guilty.
870
00:38:23,646 --> 00:38:25,519
Yeah it is.
That's not all.
871
00:38:25,605 --> 00:38:26,605
Look at her last tweet.
872
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,190
"You guys,
I'm totally freaking out.
873
00:38:29,275 --> 00:38:31,195
"The Wheelhouse just DMed me
874
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,668
"and invited me over
for a collab.
875
00:38:33,753 --> 00:38:36,043
All goes well, I could be
their newest member"?
876
00:38:38,556 --> 00:38:40,476
But after the verdict,
they can do whatever they want.
877
00:38:40,561 --> 00:38:43,500
Yeah, maybe.
But not before the verdict.
878
00:38:46,331 --> 00:38:49,559
DMing a jury member
during the trial.
879
00:38:49,657 --> 00:38:52,612
Offering her entry
to the Wheelhouse.
880
00:38:52,867 --> 00:38:55,858
I'm looking at jury tampering,
bribery.
881
00:38:55,943 --> 00:38:57,755
Your Honor, this is the first
that I'm hearing about this.
882
00:38:57,838 --> 00:38:59,500
Yeah, well, I should
certainly hope so.
883
00:38:59,585 --> 00:39:02,373
We also have evidence
that the defendants
884
00:39:02,458 --> 00:39:05,199
DMed a second juror,
Brian Cummings,
885
00:39:05,329 --> 00:39:06,715
also during the trial,
886
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,019
inviting him to become
a member of the Wheelhouse
887
00:39:09,105 --> 00:39:10,889
in exchange
for a not guilty verdict.
888
00:39:10,974 --> 00:39:15,090
And I quote, "If the jury
acquits, the Wheelhouse fits."
889
00:39:15,175 --> 00:39:16,827
Very clever, gentlemen.
890
00:39:16,974 --> 00:39:18,572
Do you have anything
to say for yourselves?
891
00:39:18,655 --> 00:39:20,215
That's just how we recruit.
Yeah.
892
00:39:20,300 --> 00:39:21,974
Like Willa said,
the timing is a coincidence.
893
00:39:22,057 --> 00:39:23,722
Okay, that's enough.
894
00:39:24,329 --> 00:39:25,947
Your Honor,
I'll have to verify this.
895
00:39:26,032 --> 00:39:27,351
Well, you do so, Mr. Swope,
896
00:39:27,436 --> 00:39:29,340
because if this turns out
to be true,
897
00:39:29,425 --> 00:39:31,512
your clients could be looking
at double digits.
898
00:39:34,704 --> 00:39:36,606
They'll get over ten years
in prison?
899
00:39:36,692 --> 00:39:37,965
Their lawyer cut a deal,
900
00:39:38,050 --> 00:39:40,315
so they'll get seven
and they'll be out in five.
901
00:39:40,432 --> 00:39:43,112
Still, they'll be so old.
902
00:39:43,521 --> 00:39:45,800
I just wanted an apology.
903
00:39:46,724 --> 00:39:48,340
We're so sorry, Willa,
904
00:39:48,425 --> 00:39:51,380
and we did everything
that we could.
905
00:39:51,530 --> 00:39:54,418
I know.
At least Diggy apologized.
906
00:39:54,503 --> 00:39:57,065
He invited me
to join the Wheelhouse.
907
00:39:57,150 --> 00:40:00,487
Hold on, Willa, are you sure?
This is different.
908
00:40:00,572 --> 00:40:03,840
He invited me and Kavon.
We're gonna rebrand.
909
00:40:03,925 --> 00:40:07,206
A new collective,
kind of like a survivor squad.
910
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,487
It'll be a place for survivors
of sexual assault,
911
00:40:10,572 --> 00:40:13,795
discrimination,
mental health issues.
912
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,534
Wheeler certainly knows how
to land on his feet,
913
00:40:16,619 --> 00:40:18,362
but it sounds like
a good thing.
914
00:40:18,447 --> 00:40:22,606
He did right,
and so did Counselor Carisi.
915
00:40:22,704 --> 00:40:24,125
Would you guys
thank him for me?
916
00:40:24,210 --> 00:40:27,887
We can do that.
He's a nice guy.
917
00:40:28,101 --> 00:40:29,954
To me,
he's one of the good ones.
918
00:40:30,038 --> 00:40:31,858
And for what it's worth,
919
00:40:31,981 --> 00:40:34,425
I can see
how much he likes you.
920
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,574
So we are looking
at sex trafficking.
921
00:40:44,893 --> 00:40:47,115
Does your informant
have any idea where Rita is?
922
00:40:47,201 --> 00:40:50,456
No, but he did find out
that there is a shipment
923
00:40:50,541 --> 00:40:52,829
of new prospects
coming in from Albania...
924
00:40:52,914 --> 00:40:54,500
12 underage girls.
925
00:40:54,666 --> 00:40:57,556
When does the plane land?
Eight hours from now, at JFK.
926
00:40:57,641 --> 00:40:58,809
I'll let Stabler know.
927
00:40:58,893 --> 00:41:01,152
Make sure he's part of the crew
picking up the girls.
928
00:41:03,182 --> 00:41:05,472
We may need your ongoing
help with this, Captain.
929
00:41:05,751 --> 00:41:07,231
Always.
