All language subtitles for Law and Order SVU s24e07 Dead Ball.eng

In the criminal justice
system,

sexually based offenses

are considered
especially heinous.

In New York City,
the dedicated detectives

who investigate
these vicious felonies

are members of an elite squad

known as
the Special Victims Unit.

These are their stories.

You are
a household name, Paulo.

You're playing
the best soccer of your life.

I know that.

Does the front office?

They do.

It's what the Kings hoped for

when they brought you over
from Brazil five years ago.

And they want
to continue to...

nurture that investment.

Meaning what?
We got it all?

- 50 million over five years.
- [chuckles]

And the no-fault clause?

Thanks to me,
it's locked and loaded.

You, my friend,
are among the untouchables.

Your talent is untouchable.

Always has been,
always will be.

All right.
We should head out of here.

You've got a match
to prepare for.

As it stands now,
we are here at one apiece

with five-plus minutes left
of the game.

It's to Paulo Rocha now
in full command of the pitch,

taking it straight
to Cincinnati's defense.

He gets by one defender,
then another.

No stopping him. There's
four defenders around him.

He tries to find a way.

He right puts it.
And it's a goal!

Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal!

[cheers]

[lively music]

♪

[cheers and applause]

- How you doing?
- Good, good.

What's going on, guys?

Welcome, Mr. Rocha.

- Everything ready?
- Yes, sir, Mr. Campos.

We've got you up
on the 15th floor.

Presidential suite, right?

As always.

You're too good to me, bro.
God bless.

Can you believe this?

They're saying Piñero's defense

was the deciding factor
against Cincinnati.

You don't dive
in that cesspool.

Nobody knows
what they're talking about.

I score the goals,
make the plays.

I create.
Defense doesn't do anything.

I hear you, boy-o.

That is why they just dumped
all of that money in your lap.

After this interview,
nobody's gonna be talking

about Piñero.
Believe me.

Hey, maybe we can push it
until tomorrow.

I've got dates tonight. Multiple.

Paulo,
it's for "Sports Wrap."

The cover story.
You got to do this.

I already said all I got
to say out on the pitch.

They can quote me on that.

It's part of your job, Paulo.

No, it is not.

My job is to win matches,
get paid.

That's it.

Hey, come on.

I want to celebrate.

- Paulo, please.
- Just push it.

It is your job,
business manager.

Can you weigh in here, please?

Reporter's not in town
much longer.

Hey, you got to strike
when the iron is hot.

Boy-o, come on.

Let's get that face out there.

Hello, Paulo.

Olá, bonita.

And what do I call you?

I'm Nellie.

Well, Nellie,

você tem um sorriso lindo.

OK.

OK, should we get started?

You've said
you feel like a kid in the U.S.

You love playing mini golf.

Ah, well, what can I say?

I'm charmed
by those little windmills.

Mm.

Since joining the Kings,

the team has won
two championships.

You're about to sign another
multimillion dollar contract.

The fans love you...

And I love them.

But you've also developed
a reputation as a showboater

and a selfish player
on and off the field.

For example,

in August,
when Piñero's mother died,

every player went
to her funeral but you.

That was my call.

Paulo wanted to go,
but he needed rest.

Is that true, Paulo?

Antonio, why don't you
and Mondale take a walk, hmm?

Nellie and I can handle this.

That's not really
a good idea--

Thank you, Timothy.

Let's go.

[tense music]

♪

[sighs]
Can I get you a drink?

I'm having one.

No, thank you.

OK, then.

What else you got?

On the field,
you seem to take pleasure

in humiliating
opposing players.

The fans love it.

It's like gladiators
in the ring.

Or you're a tyrant.

You're cocky.

Have we done this before?

You don't remember me,
do you?

I wasn't quite so cocky
back then.

You interviewed me.

No, I was just a simple fan.

Ah, well,
I have so many fans,

but I'd remember one
as beautiful and...

spirited as you.

Where did we meet again?

It was London
eight years ago.

Lucky me.

Fate has brought us
back together.

♪

Hey.

Wait, come on.
Don't be like that.

You're a piece
of crap, Paulo.

Would you just calm down?

Stay away from me!

Let's talk about this.

♪

You're talking
about Paulo Rocha,

the soccer player?

Yeah,
big fish in a big pond.

And then he came stateside,
and suddenly he's a whale.

OK, can you walk us
through what happened?

Yeah, all right,
so my editors

have been after this interview
for years.

I asked Paulo a few questions.

And then he sent his manager
and agent out of the room.

So you were alone with Paulo?

Look, I knew he was
gonna turn on the charm,

but this was a real opportunity
for me to talk to him

without his handlers.

Right away, he grabs me.
Tries to kiss me.

And I told him
I'm not interested.

And what happened
when you told him no?

He grabbed my breast
and pushed me onto the couch.

And then he raped me.

Nellie, did you
tell anyone afterwards,

maybe a friend or a colleague?

No.

But some of it is recorded.

I mean,
I was doing an interview.

- OK, can we--
- Yeah.

Jesus, could you please stop?
- [chuckles]

It's not funny.
Let go.

Aw, no.
Come on, baby.

We're celebrating.

No, absolutely not.
I said stop!

Hey, hey.

You're not going anywhere.

I mean, I've run into men
like this before.

The money and power
goes to their heads.

To them, everyone's
either an employee

or a possession.

[dramatic music]

♪

He's, like,
a genuine superstar.

Yeah, which means
this case is gonna be

a genuine pain in the ass.

This reporter,
she's credible?

And she's got a recording
of the encounter.

I think that Muncy's right.

This case is gonna be
a giant pain in the ass.

The press, 1PP,
not to mention his camp.

So Fin, Rollins,
get Paulo's side of the story.

And you two, get the
security footage from the hotel

before some desk clerk
leaks it.

So you're a soccer fan?

No, I'm a fútbol fan.

You know, the most
popular sport in the world?

Well, it's not football if
someone's not getting tackled.

Or getting
a traumatic brain injury.

You've never watched a game
in your life, have you?

I'd rather stop
by a laundromat,

pop in a few quarters,
and watch a dryer spin.

Officers, how may I help you?

It's detectives.

And you may help us
by confirming

that Paulo Rocha was a guest
here last night.

He had an interview.
What's this about?

Is this the woman
who interviewed him?

Hmm, I couldn't really say.

Well, could you say
where the security footage

from the 15th floor is?

Nellie must have misunderstood.

Maybe she did,
maybe she didn't.

She filed a complaint,
so we have to follow up.

A complaint alleging what?

That Paulo tried
to force himself on her.

Did you?

Well, on the pitch, I force
myself on guys all the time.

But on women, never.

You're talking about one

of the greatest soccer players
of all time.

That makes it OK?

What Mr. Mondale is saying

is that Paulo is not only
the face of his team,

but of the entire league.

In five years with the Kings,

he hasn't had one complaint
against him.

The thing is, though,
Nellie recorded the interview.

It's not funny.
Let go.

Aw, no.
Come on, baby.

We're celebrating.

No, absolutely not.
I said stop!

- You want us to keep going?
- Wow.

Well, this doesn't
prove anything.

You want to tell him,
or should I?

Tell us what?

Nellie and Paulo
have a history.

And I am guessing
that Nellie left that part out.

You were in a relationship?

A very serious one,
about eight years ago.

It was intense, passionate.

Last night, we fell
into some old habits.

If that's all it was,
why did she come to the cops?

I have no idea.

My guess is she heard
about the $50 million contract

and was prepared
to use that tape

as some sort of shakedown.

Sorry you have wasted a trip.

You're a piece of crap,
Paulo.

- Hey, calm down.
- Stay away from me.

Let's talk about this.

So she storms down the hall.

He tries to stop her,
and she gets in the elevator.

And his team is claiming
that this was a shakedown.

She looks pretty upset to me.

And the video is consistent
with her statement.

If there's no camera
in the suite,

this doesn't do us much good.

It's not great

that she didn't tell us
about the relationship,

so we need to make sure
that Nellie is solid

before Paulo gets too far ahead
of us.

Well, that ship
may have already sailed.

He's trending on Twitter.

A video of some obscure
soccer podcast.

Always got to watch out
for the--

I think in English,
you say opportunist.

Fans, friends, even reporters.
- OK.

There's this one--
let's call her Nellie.

We had a fling
back in the day.

But she was a little too louca
for my taste,

so I had to end it.

Oh, sure you did.

And now,
she's writing a story on me,

and everything in it is a lie.

So I call her out,
and she says,

since I did her dirty
back then,

she's going
to do me dirty now.

Some reporters have
more to hide than to reveal.

I'm sorry I didn't call,
but I have to go back home.

Because of that podcast?

Nellie,
it doesn't matter

that you had
a prior relationship with Paulo

as long as you're telling
the truth about the assault.

The truth will come out

if you look more closely
into Paulo.

But I can't be
part of this anymore.

There's more to this equation
than just me and Paulo.

He got me pregnant.

I have a son.

That you've
never told him about?

I didn't need some guy
to be a phantom presence

in my baby's life.

And now he is?

You took a real risk
interviewing him, then.

I just wanted--

I wanted the world to know
who he really was.

And I underestimated him.

He found out.

Private eyes,
one of his lackeys.

I don't know.

I didn't know he had
that kind of reach.

I mean, Robbie doesn't
even have his last name.

I never should
have come to you.

Nellie, listen to me.

You did the right thing
by coming forward.

You don't understand.

I cannot go forward
with this case.

He's threatening to sue me
for custody unless I drop it.

We can help you.

I don't see how!

Wait.
Nellie, hold on.

Please talk this through
with us.

My son is all I have.

I'm sorry.
I really am.

So that's it?
Nellie's out?

She went back to London.

I mean, she couldn't risk Paulo
meddling in her son's life.

And quite frankly,
I understand it.

Which means our sexual
assault case against him

goes in a circular file.

This one, yeah,
but Nellie did imply

that the truth will come out.

If this guy is a predator,
he's done this before.

What else do we know about him?

He was born
in Rio de Janeiro.

He played three World Cups
for Brazil.

He was also a star player
for a few clubs in Europe

before he was lured to the U.S.

See if you can track down
his sheet in Brazil.

All right.
What about this country?

Are there any other complaints?

Nothing criminal.

And if any were made
to the Kings or the league,

they've swept it
under the rug.

And the owners of the Kings
won't return our phone calls.

They've asked that we kindly
direct any future inquiries

to their in-house counsel.

Look, forget his handlers.

What about his family?
What about friends?

As far as I can tell,
he has no friends

besides his entourage.

He was married
to a Mexican TV actress,

co-founder
of his media company.

They divorced
after two years.

That could have
been annulled.

Was there a settlement?

$10 million.

It's quite a payout
for two years of work.

Find out what she was
being paid to keep secret.

Damn, two years of marriage
gets you this?

I got to get back
on the dating apps.

She's a career woman
just like you.

Yeah, well,
I guess telenovelas

pay a lot more
than a badge.

Don't we know it?

I heard the podcast.

Poor Paulo.

The vultures are
always circling.

You were married to Paulo.

What can you tell us
about your relationship?

Short but sweet.

It beats long and sour.

He didn't pay to keep me.

He paid to leave me.

Well, $10 million
buys a lot of amnesia.

Mm,
you've done your research.

What's this about?

The reporter he mentioned
in that podcast

filed a credible sexual assault
complaint against Paulo.

She has nothing to gain
and a lot to lose.

Nothing to gain?
Please, you're a grown man.

She's just the latest in a long
line of money-hungry liars.

So there were other women.

Pretty good reason
for a divorce.

Paulo was
an excellent provider,

so as far as I'm concerned,
he was also a faithful husband.

It's really quite simple.

I got bored.

We're having guests
for dinner.

I have to check the menu
with the cook.

Gracias, mamá.

You mind if I come with you,
get a glass of water?

Sure.

Your daughter
is very beautiful.

- Mm-hmm.
- It's a blessing.

Also maybe a little bit
of a curse?

So many men,
like fruit flies.

Thinking with their picos.

Yeah, but Paulo,
he married her, right?

Mujeriego.

Cheater, liar.

She deserved every cent
she got from him.

How do you know
he was sleeping around?

I know.

Just look at his face
when he sees a pretty girl.

His mouth is smiling, but
his eyes are already planning.

OK.
Nothing more specific?

One time, I caught him
in the pool house

with Simone's yoga teacher.

Yoga.

More like wrestling.

Their clothes were half off.

And what did you do?

I fired her.

I didn't tell Simone.

She thinks she quit.

Does this yoga teacher
have a name?

Ebony Jones
doesn't work here anymore.

- And why is that?
- I had to let her go.

Can you tell
us what happened?

She threatened
to sue one of our clients.

Completely unfounded too.

Is this client's name
Simone Rocha?

You know her?

Then you know Simone
and her ex, Paulo,

were Physique's golden geese.

Ebony, on the other hand,
was bad for business.

You got a number
or an address?

Sorry, once an employee
is no longer an employee,

we dump their info.

Mm-hmm, thanks.

So what now?

Well, if Ebony followed
through with the lawsuit,

it'll still be on record
with the courthouse.

I'll call Fin.

Sup, Rhonda?

Fin, look at you.

How long has it been?
- It's been too long.

I brought you a gift.

Spring rolls from Hop Kee's.
Still your favorite?

Of course,
'cause you know nothing

and no one changes around here.

- Too old for that.
- Yes.

- I need some help with a case.
- OK.

It's Ebony Jones
versus Simone Rocha.

No Simone.

Wait, you must mean
Paulo Rocha.

- Paulo, really?
- Yes.

Which year are you looking for?

There's more than one case.

We got him now.

Paulo's been sued
for sexual assault 12 times.

12 times?

Yeah, civil cases.

None of the vics took it
to the police.

Were there settlements?

All but one,
and that's only

because it was filed
two days ago.

So it hasn't even gone
to trial?

Mm-mm.

I'll call Carisi and see
if I can get a subpoena

for Paulo's bank statements.

In the meantime, you find these
women, every damn one of them.

Mm-hmm.

I did file a lawsuit
against Paulo two days ago,

but I changed my mind.

I can't really
talk about it, though.

I signed an NDA.

How about off the record,
Aline?

I guess that's OK.

I met up with Paulo.

He was wasted,
in a foul mood.

About what?

He was ranting
about that reporter chick.

He told you about her?

It totally killed the vibe.

Asked him
if I could take a rain check.

Let me guess.
The check bounced.

I was just supposed
to give Paulo a private lesson,

and he said
that wasn't what he wanted.

He was super aggressive.

Followed me
into the pool house.

Couldn't keep his hands off
of me.

How'd you handle that, Ebony?

I pepper-sprayed him
and walked out.

And after that,
Simone's mother fired me.

I'm trying
to give Paulo physical therapy,

and he's pulling out his thing,
asking me to touch it.

What did you do?

I froze.

He's a VIP.

Nobody ever says anything bad
about him.

I thought maybe it was just me.

Why didn't you
file a police report?

He was too powerful.

I thought I'd never work again.

Sometimes I hate
those locker room situations.

But I can't talk 'cause--
- You signed a NDA.

The women that agreed
to talk to us--

therapist,
masseuses, trainers--

all told a similar version
of the same story

consistent with Nellie's.

OK, so groping, fondling,
forcible contact.

That's sex abuse one.

The problem is
we're hamstrung by the NDAs.

Well, what about the woman
who just filed the lawsuit?

Aline?
- Settled before the ink dried.

OK, well,
Rollins and Muncy

are scouring through
his financial statements.

Hopefully something
will come of that.

Were you able to track down
his Brazilian record?

From what I can tell,
it doesn't exist.

[knocks at door]

- Ah, Chief--
- We need to talk.

What's going on?
[door slams]

I was hoping
you could tell me.

Anything I need to know?

Some heavy hitter you got
in your crosshairs maybe?

Well, if you're talking
about Paulo Rocha--

Yeah, you know I am.

We're working the case.

Our complainant fell through,

but we found several women
who sued him in civil court.

So this is
an ongoing investigation.

Way I hear it,
it's an ongoing campaign

of harassment.
- What?

Badgering
his former employees,

even after they've asked you
to stop?

- Excuse me?
- Yeah.

Yeah,
Rocha's lawyer called 1PP.

Said these are
just hardworking people

who want to be left alone.
- Chief--

And then he threatens
to sue the department.

Hang on,
these women were not pressured

to come forward.

Are you sure about that?

Yes.

'Cause
the deputy commissioner

had me on the phone last night,
2:00 a.m.

So if you don't want me calling
you tonight, waking you up,

then we got to fix this.

Perhaps it was
a communication breakdown

within your squad, Captain,

because we were
under the impression

that this matter was closed.

Nellie withdrew
her complaint, right?

She did, yes,

but when we find
a potential victim credible,

there's just a few more steps
that we need to take.

It's just standard procedure.

Well, it doesn't
feel standard to me.

It feels like profiling.

I'll handle this, Paulo.

Your complaining witness
drops out,

and yet, you request
a court order

for my client's
financial records

and continue to harass
his family and associates?

No one was harassed, Counselor.

As I said before, we were
following up on a few leads.

Well, these statements
tell a different story.

Four of the women
you interviewed

attested that SVU's
repeated follow-ups

left them feeling overburdened
and threatened.

We both know
that's not what happened.

Why don't we
let a judge decide?

We can take these
to one right now.

No, there's no need.
No need.

You have our assurance

these people
won't be bothered anymore.

Isn't that right,
Captain Benson?

Good.

We appreciate your cooperation.

Captain Benson.

If you talk to Nellie,
tell her no hard feelings.

I always admired her.

You know,
I'm curious.

If you didn't do
anything wrong,

why not just let us
do our jobs?

Well, when a mosquito's
buzzing around my face,

I don't just stand there.

- Mm.
- I swat it away.

Oh, that's poetic.

You know, let's get
something straight, Paulo.

I'm not afraid of you.
- Captain.

And you have no leverage
over me,

so make all the threats
you want.

But sooner or later,
I will find something.

It's just unbelievable.

How'd it go with Paulo?

This guy thinks
that he's Teflon.

And they also claimed
that they have a statement

from women that we interviewed
alleging harassment.

Harassment by us?

That's either doctored
or coerced.

Look, I know that this guy
likes to play in the mud.

I really want to call his
bluff, but we need ammo, guys.

And we're running out of time.
- Well, maybe this will help.

So his corporate accounts,
they show us what we expected.

One-time payments.

It's $100,000

to each of the women
that he settled with.

Right, nothing else out
of the ordinary there.

But his personal accounts,
they reveal this little tidbit.

Cash withdrawals, right?
Starting June 2021.

And they're taken out quarterly.

Same amount
he paid his victims.

And this is the last one?

Yeah, this morning.

Paulo's trying to hide
something from his own people.

Follow the money.

That means follow him.

What's he waiting for?

Uber back to Brazil?

How can you eat that crap?

You know how processed
that stuff is?

You're right.

It's just the vending machine
was out of kale.

[chuckles]

Ooh, here we go.

Oh, whoa.
Who's that?

She looks familiar.

Uh-huh, Paulo's Instagram.

Yeah, Paulo,
his business manager, Antonio,

and Antonio's wife,
Marcía Campos.

Is Antonio's wife
taking a payoff?

[camera shutter clicking]

We may have just found
woman number 13.

Mrs. Campos.

Can I help you?

I'm Sergeant Tutuola.

This is Detective Rollins.

We wanted to talk to you
about Paulo Rocha.

He's my husband's client.

I have nothing to say
about him.

You have anything to say
about this?

Why was Pablo handing you
that envelope, Mrs. Campos?

That's none of your business.

I can't talk to you.
Paulo is...

You wouldn't understand.

- Help us understand.
- I've done nothing wrong.

Mrs. Campos, we're not
accusing you of anything.

We just want--
- To ruin my marriage?

[door opens]

Stay away from me
and my family.

- Mom, everything OK?
- Take these bags.

Go.

OK, so we've
hit a speed bump.

Do we think
that Marcía is a victim?

She was definitely
hiding something.

I mean, her husband handles
Paulo's finances, right?

He's the one that paid
all the other women directly?

So Paulo's
sidestepping Antonio.

Which brings us back
to Marcía.

With her daughter, yeah.

This is Ana Campos, 17.

Only child
of Antonio and Marcía.

Yeah, we saw her
at the Campos' house.

Her page is chock-full
of photos

of her and Paulo together
at Wembley,

in Saint-Tropez,
on the Rialto Bridge.

I mean, she's probably
known Paulo her whole life.

He's like an uncle.

Plus, he's famous.

Well, sure,
but if that's the case,

then why would he just
disappear from her feed?

When?

June 2021,
when she was 16.

And I mean disappeared.

Not a single photo
of the two of them together.

June 2021?

That's around the time

Paulo started
making cash withdrawals

without Antonio knowing
about it.

And it's not like
Ana stopped posting either.

But all of a sudden,
nothing with Paulo?

I mean,
something happened there.

OK, so track her down
and find out what.

- Here you are.
- Thank you.

Hey, I'm so sorry
to bother you.

Um, I feel like I recognize you
from your Instagram.

Ana?
- Yeah.

Hi.
- Hi!

Oh, my God, girl,
those photos

of you and Paulo Rocha
are fire,

and we need more of them.
- Thanks.

But I'm not really allowed
to post about him anymore.

Really? Why?
Did you get in trouble

for, like,
stalking him or something?

What? No.

It was more like
he was stalking me.

Really?

- He and I had a thing.
- [gasps]

Stop.
No, you didn't.

Yeah, we hooked up last year.

Oh, my God.
I'm so jealous.

I've seen pictures of his abs.

But you're so young.

You must have been,
like, a baby.

I was 16.

He gave me this on my birthday.

- Wow.
- They're real.

It started the next day
at his penthouse.

He was all over me.

Really?

Interesting place.

The monks made these
for kings,

but they worked
in ice cold cells.

Total silence.

Sometimes they left
little complaints.

[chuckles]
Jokes in the margins.

Like here.

"This paper sure is hairy."

[chuckles]

It makes them
seem more relatable.

But you're not here
for the art.

We looked into Paulo's
personal bank account,

the one
you don't have access to.

We found he's been
making cash withdrawals

every few months and...

secretly meeting with your wife
to give them to her.

Marcía?
You're lying.

Well,
Marcía wouldn't talk to us.

But I'm sorry
to have to tell you this,

but your daughter did.

- Ana?
- Ana.

Paulo had a sexual relationship
with Ana

when she was 16 years old.

We think Marcía found out.

Your best friend has been
paying her off ever since.

No, this isn't true.

No, my wife would tell me.

I would know.
I know everything.

No, no, no, no.
- Mm.

Wait.
Ana told you this?

Your daughter
is not to blame here.

Look, a young girl,
stars in her eyes.

I--I hate to admit it,
but I was a fan of the guy too.

Obviously, not anymore.

You know Paulo
better than anyone.

You think your daughter
would be off-limits

to a man who has none?

When we were growing up,
I was older.

Paulo looked at me
like I was his hero.

Even after his star rose,

I've been the one
making sure it didn't dim.

You made him who he is.

And you protected him
from all the other women.

- From himself.
- Yeah.

And he repays you by using
your teenage daughter

like she was another one
of his conquests.

[doorbell rings]

[door opens, slams]

Hey.

Olá, meu amigo.

I'm making feijoada
for dinner tonight.

- A little taste of home, huh?
- Eh.

She's a girl
I want to impress.

Hey, you're welcome to join.

I can't stay.

Make sure nobody
enters this building

who doesn't live here.
- I'll call Fin and Muncy.

I remember this day
at Praia Vermelha.

You were running around,

following me everywhere I went,
like my shadow.

It's funny
how things change, right?

I had another visit
from the police today.

Jackals.

Did you take care of it?

For now.

But you heard that captain.

They're gonna keep looking.

You went too far, Paulo.

Do you remember
those old westerns

where the outlaw
would rob the bank?

That's me.

I'm a safecracker.

But you don't blow off
the doors with dynamite.

You listen for the clicks.

- The clicks?
- Mm-hmm.

Trainers, masseuses--
one click.

That's barely a challenge.

A professional woman
like Nellie--

a reporter--
two clicks.

It's a better challenge.

But that door
was already opened.

And once it's open,
it never shuts.

Yeah, and a young woman,

like my Ana,

she'd be how many clicks
to you, Paulo?

Ana?

What the hell is that?

The money you gave Marcía
to keep your secret...

that you violated my daughter.

No, Antonio.
Are you listening to yourself?

I would never--
- No, no, no!

Be honest.

The things I've done for you,
the things that I've seen.

I know all your lies.

I am your lies!

No, I want
to hear you say it, Paulo.

Say it!

Say it.

I'm a competitor, Antonio.

Babaca.

She's only a child!

She is a woman,
a beautiful woman!

She wanted to have sex
more than I did!

- Boom.
- Got him.

Antonio.

She came on to me, bro!

You should be proud of her.
She knows what she wants.

[gun clicks]

Whoa, Antonio.
What the hell are you doing?

There's a hole
in your heart, Paulo.

Always has been.

You try to fill it
with fame and money

and women,

but it only grows larger.

Antonio, please.

Let's--
[gunshots]

- Shots fired!
- Let's go!

Jesus Christ, what the
hell is wrong with you?

- Drop the gun, Antonio.
- Now!

Give me the gun.
That's it.

Why are you here?
What is it?

Paulo Rocha,

you're under arrest
for sexual assault of a minor.

I'm under arrest?

He just shot at me.

Antonio, do something.

I already have.

That's right.

When you're alone at night,

thinking about everything

that's been taken away
from you,

remember it was because of me.

I did this.

Come on.
Let's go.

Where'd you get the gun,
Antonio?

That corner
of his bedroom closet.

In an old shoebox.

How did you know
it was there?

I was the one
who hid it for him.

She is a woman,
a beautiful woman!

She wanted to have sex
more than I did!

My friend betrayed me, so...

Ana was 16.
You're looking at an E felony.

So you're facing
four years in prison

as a registered sex offender.

And you know how much they
love that on the cell block.

Hold on.

You got no witnesses

and a "victim" who testified

to being crazy in love
with my client--

All right,
I'm gonna stop you right there.

Your client admitted
to having sex with a minor.

You really want
to take this to trial?

Paulo pleads sexual
misconduct, no jail time.

A misdemeanor?
That's not happening.

The charge is rape three, period.

Can't swat that away,
can you?

God damn, Antonio.
I trusted that man with my li--

And then you raped
his teenage daughter!

I need some time alone
with my client.

Be careful what you wish for.

[tense music]

♪

Paulo left that
poor family shattered, huh?

They're gonna try to put
the pieces back together,

go to counseling.

Carisi's only charging Antonio
with reckless endangerment,

which means
he'll get probation.

Marcía was just trying
to keep it all together.

I wonder what she's gonna do
with all the money

'cause it's not like
she needed the cash.

Well, she told Ana
it was for college.

There'll be plenty more
where that came from

if she ever decides to sue.

Well, I'm going to see Ana
now, so good night, everyone.

Good night.

You good?

I know it's hard to see
your heroes turn into villains.

That guy was a villain
all along.

Hmm.

Hey, I got you something.

Why?

Oh!

So you can learn
how to kick

before you crap
on my national pastime.

Uh-huh.

Oh, look at you.
You're good.

Oh, wow, you're a natural.
- OK, you know what?

Go long, then.
Go on.

Whoa, easy.

I'ma stick to real football.

What are you talking about?
This is real fútbol.

Mm-hmm, yeah.
Good night, Velasco.

So Paulo is gonna
plead guilty to rape three.

No jail time, but he's
gonna do 10 years' probation

and go on the registry.

He didn't rape me.
I wanted him.

OK. I know, Ana.

I know that you think that,

but men like Paulo are experts

at grooming girls your age.

And according to the law, Ana,
what he did to you was rape.

And there's a reason for that.

It's to keep predators away
from young people.

Also to give you time, right?

A little bit of breathing room.

Time for what?

Being bored to death?

Time to figure things out
on your own.

You know that adult men
have more power.

They have more experience.

And in this case,
they have more ego.

You want to talk about ego?

Boys my age only care about
getting wasted and partying.

Well, it sounds like

you're meeting
the wrong kind of boys.

Look, at 17, you just don't
know what you think you know.

With a little bit of time
and perspective,

you're gonna look back at this

and see the whole thing
so differently

and so clearly.

And I know that.

Believe me,
because I've been there.

You'll see.
