All language subtitles for Michael.Jackson.Searching.for.Neverland.2017.1080p.WEBRip.x264-RARBG

Michael Jackson was my client

and he became my friend.

This is our story.

Mr. Whitefield, tell us more
about what you do.

People see us on TV
in our black suits and--

Excuse me, could you speak

into the microphone?

People see us on TV in...our
black suits and..

...think we're...
glorified bouncers.

But executive protection

is serious business.

We're entrusted with
the welfare of celebrities

their spouses, children.

We set up false identities
to move people

around the globe in secret.

And when we leave

if we've done our jobs right

it's like we were never there.

But we're always there.

Standing in the background..

...listening, observing.

We know the things
you wish you knew.

Mr. Whitefield,
the purpose of this deposition

is to determine
if Dr. Conrad Murray

'killed Michael Jackson.'

Like I told you,
I wasn't there that night.

But you were there the two years
leading up to that night.

May I remind you
you're under oath?

Now..

When did you start
working for Mr. Jackson?

Just before Christmas, 2006.

Z-Y-G-O-T-E-S.

Seven letters
on a triple-word score.

One hundred and ten points.
I win.

What is Z-Z-Zygota,
that's not even a word.

Yeah, it is.

- Good job, baby.
- Thank you.

Did you just get better
while I was away

or am I just gettin' rusty?

Me and aunty
played every night.

- 'Sure did.'
- Mm-hm.

And she beat me
just like that every time.

- Okay.
- 'Mm-hm.'

- So what else did I miss?
- I got a boyfriend.

- What?
- Just foolin', pops.

You better be.

'Cause I told you,
no boyfriends until you 20.

You said 16.

- Well, I meant 25.
- Oh, come on.

- So, daddy.
- Yes?

Are you really gonna be
home for Christmas?

Of course.

That's tight.

Oh.

Oh, okay.

Hey, Jeff, what's up?

Hey, I got a job for you.

I'm not leavin' home.

'No, it's here in Vegas.'

High profile dignitary.

Arrives in two weeks, I just
need you to escort him home.

Okay. A to B?

A to B.
And I'll handle the rest.

Alright, short and sweet.
I'm in.

Now let's get back
to this boyfriendsituation.

Two days before
the client was to arrive

Jeff and I did what's known
as a pre-advance detail.

Video camera.

No cameras.

Client is very
adamant about that.

Matter of fact, let me check
underneath the truck.

'Quickly, please.'

Watch your step, baby.

Prince, take your
brother's hand please.

- Hm?
- Where's daddy?

Thank you very..

So who was that guy, anyway?

You kiddin', right?

You didn't see him?

I saw a skinny dude
with a scarf.

Man, that was Michael Jackson.

- What?
- Yeah.

I guess he got tired of Bahrain.

The most popular dude
on the planet is back

in the country and we
the only ones that know it?

Mum's the word.

I'm John Feldman, Mr. Jackson's
personal assistant.

Mr. Jackson would
like to say hello.

Oh, really? I'm about
to meet Michael Jackson?

Told you this was a good gig.

- You good, bro?
- Yeah.

Hello, Bill.

It's nice to meet you.

It's a honor to meet you, sir.

I'm a huge fan.

Thank you.

I saw on your resume that
you've done work for Motown.

Many times, sir.

So I can trust you?

Yes, sir.

- Of course.
- 'Daddy, daddy.'

- 'Dad.'
- 'Daddy, daddy.'

Volley-ball court.

Not volley-ball, tennis.

- Come on.
- Come on, we gotta--

- Hey, hey, hey..
- Dad, dad..

- Hey, come on.
- Come on, you gotta--

- Wait, wait, wait, wait.
- Dad, come on.

Blanket, Blanket, Blanket!
Come, come back.

Come back, everybody.

Everybody.

Say hello to Bill.

Hi, Bill.

Hi.

Bill's our new head of security.

You will stay in
the night, right?

- Um, uh..
- Right.

Yes, sir. Of course.

- Okay, come on.
- Please, please, please, dad..

- Let's go and see the pool.
- Yes!

And then, and then we'll see
the bedroom. And then..

So where's his staff,
his manager?

He's traveling only
with me and the nanny.

So it would just be me?

You told him yes.

Excuse me, Mr. Bill.

- Oh!
- Hi.

Hey.

I'm Paris,
it's nice to meet you

Well..

It's nice to meet you too.

Daddy said
to bring you this

and introduce myself.

Okay.

- Well, thank you.
- 'You're welcome.'

I put the marshmallows in
myself.

'Marshmallows. Very nice.'

- Bye.
- Bye.

Oh, yeah, be careful,
it's really hot.

- 'Okay.'
- Bye.

Oh, boy.

Oh, yeah.

I was conflicted.

On the one hand,
I had my family.

But on the other, here was
this man and his family

in this odd situation

with no one
lookin' out for them.

What else could I do?

I took the job.

'You'll be paid twice a month'

on the 3rd and the 18th

and if you have any questions

do not bother Mr. Jackson.

And do not ask the nanny.

Ask me. And only me.

Hi, Bill.

Mr. Jackson would
like to do some

Christmas shopping
at the mall, can you arrange it?

Grace Rwaramba was the nanny.

She was Mr. Jackson's
right hand.

And his kids,
his kids adored her.

Now that they were
back in the States

the kids couldn't wait
to shop in familiar stores.

So Mr. Jackson arranged
a trip to the mall.

I hired extra private securit.

We traveled underground like
rats scurrying through a maze.

That's the world
Michael Jackson had to live in

to get anywhere safely.

Okay.

So, um, Paris is OshKosh.

Blanket here is Kuko.

Now, remember that,
because he's the rebel, he runs.

No need to remember Prince's,
he's the oldest.

He protects the others
and he never runs, right?

- Right.
- Okay. OshKosh, Kuko?

- Mm-hm.
- 'Copy that.'

- Yeah.
- 'Are you ready, sir?'

Wait, wait, wait.

What game do we play?

Shazam!

- Alright, come on, let's do it.
- Ta-da!

- Have a look.
- Me first. Me first.

Blanket, Blanket, Blanket.

- I want this one.
- Where's your manners?

Sorry. Please.

Okay, come on. Put it on.

Now, listen, everybody.

You gotta stay close to Grace
and close to each other, okay?

Do not use your real name.

'Always be polite.'

And listen, hey.

Jehovah's watching you.

- Are you ready?
- Yes, I'm.

You ready there?

Mr. Jackson made the mass

seem like part of a big game.

But really, he was protecting

his children from a world

that was hungry to get at the.

- Okay.
- Okay, ready?

Are you excited?

- Yeah.
- Yeah?

- I wanna get a Barbie doll.
- You do?

'You wanna get a Barbie..'

- 'Well, what do you want?'
- 'I need..'

'Grace.'

Where do you want to go first?

Toy, toy. Toys.

- Look over there!
- 'Oh, my gosh!'

- 'Michael Jackson!'
- 'Michael!'

Whoo!

I love you!

- I love you!
- 'Oh, my God!'

- Michael! Michael!
- 'I love you.'

We should've disguised you.

- It doesn't work..
- Back off!

We need to get out of here
before somebody gets hurt.

- Easy, people!
- Stay easy, people!

'Easy now.'

- You're crushing me.
- Get away, hey!

- Hey!
- Bill, don't hurt her.

My children, Bill!
I can't see my children!

- I love you!
- 'I can't see my children!'

Dad!

- I see 'em!
- Bill!

- Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
- Michael!

Call in for more backup,
right now.

We need more backup.
Get these kids out of here now!

Move, move! Let's go!

'I just wanna go home.'

- Why are there so many people?
- It's okay.

'It's gonna be okay.'

Okay, come on.

'Come, let's go with Bill.'

'Come on, go with Bill.'

'Thank you, Bill.'

'Baby.
You were very brave, baby.'

Take your time, cadet. Okay.

'It's okay. It's okay.'

'You're safe now.'

Mr. Jackson wanted to give
his kids a normal life.

So, even though he personally
didn't celebrate Christmas

he made sure
the day was special for them.

Grandma!

- I think she's coming.
- What?

- Uh, well, I think..
- What?

But I would really
want her to be here.

- 'Look, she's nearly here.'
- She's here.

- I see her! I see her!
- Grandma!

Grandma!

- Dad, she's here. She's here.
- She's here.

- Wait, wait, wait. No, no, no!
- Hi, grandma.

- Blanket, no, wait.
- Grandma!

- Come on, dad, come on!
- Please, can we go?

Be very careful,
be very careful.

- Presents.
- Presents.

'Grandma.'

'Grandma!'

Oh, I have missed you.

- Hi, grandma!
- Oh, hi.

Look at you, Blanket.

Oh, Prince, what a nice
young man you are.

- 'Thank you, grandma.'
- 'Lovely, Paris.'

Now, take those presents
grandmother brought you.

- 'And take them inside.'
- Thank you, grandma.

- You're welcome.
- Mother.

- Hi, darling.
- Oh, how are you?

- I love you.
- I'm just fine, I love you too.

- Thank you for being here.
- Well..

Jehovah's blessed me
to spend this time with you.

It's a pleasure, my darling.

Oh, my goodness.

Look at this,
this is wonderful.

- You like it?
- Yes.

You need to stop
running around the world.

- I know.
- And settle down in one place.

I promise I am, mother.

- Alright. Yes.
- You know that?

Exactly what I came here to do.

- Look at this place.
- It's beautiful.

- This is wonderful.
- Look at it.

Yes, it is.

Mom, thank you for being here.

- I'm happy to be here.
- Means a lot to the kids.

I love you, dar.. Yes.

- 'Look at them.'
- 'Oh!'

- What'd you get?
- What do you think of that?

What is this?
What is this?

Oh, I love it!

- 'Oh!'
- 'Thank you so much, grandma!'

- I love it!
- You're welcome, baby!

- Oh, my goodness!
- Spiderman.

- Oh!
- Like that Spiderman?

You got socks,
I got a Spiderman.

- Oh!
- I love it, grandma! I love..

- Thanks, grandma.
- I know, baby.

Hey, Prince.

Prince?

- 'It's for you.'
- 'What's in the box?'

- Oh!
- He's so cute!

- I got a doggie!
- Yes!

- Thank you, daddy!
- That's okay.

'He's beautiful!'

Can I call him Kenya?

He's yours. Come on.

- Oh, Kenya.
- He's adorable.

Hi, Kenya!

- Hi, Kenya!
- Hey, hey, hey!

Hey! Kenya's not a toy.

He's a living thing.
Take care of him, okay?

- I promise I will.
- Okay.

- Thank you, daddy.
- 'That's okay.'

- Hey.
- Aww! Can I hold it?

You're too young.

They love..

Do you see this?

Bill, uh..

'I need you to watch over my son
and my grandbabies.'

- Hm?
- Yes, ma'am.

You know, it's only a matter
of time before folks figure out

'where they, where they live.'

Yes.

Thank you. Thank you, Jove.

Mrs. Jackson was right.
The secret was out.

I needed permanent help.

For the record, state your name.

Ahem, uh, Javon Beard.

Uh, uh, Javon Beard.

It says here,
your job with Mr. Jackson

was your first
celebrity protection job.

That's right.

With no experience,
how did you land

such a high profile gig?

Javon possessed the one
qualification that mattered.

Jeff Adams is my cousin.

The guy that got youthe job?

The protection business
is like all businesses.

It's about relationships.

I trusted Jeff,
so I trusted Javon.

Wait, what am I
supposed to do?

Curtesy.

You're serious?

- No.
- Man, cool, man.

This is the King of Pop
we talkin' about.

Alright.

- When is he coming?
- He's coming.

Hey, Javon.

How are you?

Uh, e-excuse me?

Bill says I can trust you.

Y-yes, sir, yeah,
y-you can trust me, sir.

Yes, sir.

Then, welcome.

Cereal?

Uh-h, n-no thank you, sir.

It's okay. Nice suit.

Wait, wait, s-so that's it?
Like, I-I'm in?

- I guess so.
- Ho-ooh!

- Hey, don't let me down.
- I got you, man.

And, don't tell anybody
who you're working for.

I mean wait, like, like,
nobody? I mean..

It's on a need-to-know
basis only.

Need-to-know. Alright, alright!

And don't come back
here lookin' like no pimp.

God! Thank you,
thank you, thank you.

Alright, man!

Raymone Bain was Mr. Jackson's
publicist during the trial.

She parlayed that into
a better position, manager.

Ms. Bain had power
and wasn't afraid to use it.

Your money comes from me,
gentlemen.

So let's get you paid.

'If you have any questions'

do not bother Mr. Jackson.

'Forget about Feldman and Grace'

'and ask me and onlyme.

I live in D.C.,
but I'm here all the time.

I'm available by phone 24/7.

And why don't y'all
get the security trailer

brought down here?

It's heated.

Thank you!

Shh! Yeah, I'll take that!

I was in charge of reading
Mr. Jackson's fan mail.

Then passing
the letters on to him.

- 'Javon.'
- Hm?

Check this out..

"Dear, Mr. Jackson

"last year,
I was diagnosed with cancer.

"The only thing that kept
my spirits up was your music.

"I listen to "Beat It"
almost every day.

"And I did.

"I am now cancer-free.

Thank you. Shirley."

Wow. That's real nice.

Hey, look at this fancy one.

It's all cute.
Let's see what we got here.

"Dear, Michael

you are a filthy
child molester."

Go ahead.

"You think you're above the law,
you black son of a bitch.

'"But as God as my witness,
I will hunt you down'

'"tear you apart limb from limb'

"then torture each one
of your three mongrel children

"until they call me daddy

and beg for
the sweet Lord's forgiveness."

Goddamn!

Let me get that, Javon.

Executive Protection 101.

All threats are real.

And we check them all out.

Mr. Jackson would always
remind us that

John Lennon was killed
by one of his fans.

Everything alright
out there, Bill?

Everything is tight.

Have a good night.

Good night.

Yes.

Yes, miss, I understa..

Can..

Can you just take
this message, please?

All I'm asking
is that you take..

Hello?

I can't believe this.

Something wrong?

Paris' birthday
is in two weeks and Mr. Jackson

asked me to invite
some of his friends.

Back in the day,
he had a lot of them.

No doubt.

I keep leaving messages,
but no one's calling back.

No, it..

I think he just
...he forgets sometimes that

people don't want
to have anything

to do with all that trial mess.

But he was found innocent.

What's that got
to do with anything?

We did it up anyway.

There are few things
Mr. Jackson loved

more than a birthday.

Make a wish.

Hey!

- You know what I wished for?
- You're not supposed to tell.

I wished we could go
back home to Neverland.

I said don't tell!

Now it's never
going to happen.

Yes, it is!
We're going back.

No. We're not.

- Right, daddy?
- Blanket, look another balloon.

We can't ever
go back to Neverland.

But, but why not?

Because that place

has been contaminated by evil.

See? Told you.

Whatever.

But at least, back
in Neverland I had friends.

'And lots of people
came to my party.'

And they had fun.
And so did I.

- And they wanted--
- I'm gonna find us a home.

I promise you I am.

Don't do that.

- Paris.
- Oh!

Paris!

We would like to know about
Mr. Jackson's relationships.

Who did he see
on a regular basis?

Almost no one.

Well, surely he had lots
of people in his life.

- He was Michael Jackson.
- Yes!

There was plenty
of people coming through

but there was no one
who was really in his life.

He had his children,
his mother.

And his fans.

His fans always
found out where he lived.

This is an illegal assembly
and you all have to go.

We have every right to be here.

'They're harassing my fans.'

'Tell them it's okay
for them to be here!'

Really, sir?

You are all breaking the law!

Thank you. Get away.

- Thank you, thank you.
- 'Listen to me right now.'

- No, no, no, you do not, ma'am.
- You can't do this.

You're breaking the law
right now.

- You all have to le--
- Sir?

It's okay
for these people to be here.

- We own that property.
- You're the resident?

I'm doin' private security
for the owner of the house.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yes.

And the owner of the house
doesn't have a problem

with these people being here.

Is that right?

I don't give a rat's fat ass
who lives here.

Ladies and gentlemen,
you all have to stay

on that side of the street,
or I'm coming back

and arresting you all
for trespassing.

Am I clear?

Okay, everybody,
let's take it back

on the other side of the street.

Okay, so he had his children,
his mother, his fans.

And us.

What about the rest
of the family?

Tell us what you know,
please.

It was spring of 2007.

We looked at
the security gate camera

and...there he was.

I think.. Joe Jackson!
Joe Jackson! Joe Jackson!

You want me to go get him?

I got it.

May I help you?

Yeah.

I'm here to see my son.
I-I'm coming in.

I'm sorry, sir.
I can't let you do that.

Can I give Mr. Jackson
a message?

Yeah.

Tell him his father's here.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Jackson.

Your father
would like to see you.

Has he got an appointment?

No, sir.

Tell Joseph
to make an appointment.

'I'm working.'

Go on. Tell him.

Yes, sir.

I'm sorry, sir.

You tell him,
I said to let me in.

Call me and set up a time.

I don't need
your damn number, boy!

Look, I'm the one
who started this shit.

Bastards like you wouldn't even
have a job if it wasn't for me.

Hey! Hey, don't you
walk away from me!

Look, I swear to God

don't you come
between me and my son!

'Fools like you
come and go every day.'

I'm his father!
I'm always gonna be here!

'Do you hear me?
Do you hear me?'

Don't mess with my family!

Get out!

Joe! Joe! Joe!

Damn! That's one
scary-ass old dude!

Or maybe he's just a father
tryin' to protect his son.

And then there was
that incident

on the night
of Elizabeth Taylor's birthday.

You guys have
Liz's gift, right?

- Yes!
- It's wrapped the way I said?

Everything is just the way
you wanted it, boss.

Everything has to be
absolutely perfect.

Yeah, we good.

- Ooh!
- King of Pop!

'Yo, straight up!'

Come on!
What are you watching me for?

Get ready.
Come on, hurry up!

- 'Go!'
- Okay. Okay, let's go.

Hey, how do we look?

Like you're going
to the prom.

I mean it. You guys look great.

Damn!

- What's happening?
- 'Cover Mr. Jackson!'

'Mr. Jackson, no!'

Get down, sir! Get down!

Sir, stay back.

- Sir, please! Stay back!
- Damn!

Stop the car or I'll shoot!

You got about one second
to start talking!

Hey, shut up!

Hey, get the gun
out of my face, alright?

It's Randy!

- 'I want to see my brother!'
- Hell no!

- Not like this, you not!
- Hey, he owes me money!

Move this car
back outside the gate.

And then I'll tell
Mr. Jackson you here.

Negro, please!

I ain't movin'
until I get my money!

So go on, get him! I got
all day! Got nowhere to be.

'Now tell him to pay me,
or I'm goin' to the press.'

CNN, NBC.
Go get my money!

No! No more press! None!

Copy. Okay, sir, uh..

I'm gonna block the..
Sir, sir! Please!

I will block Randy
with one of the trucks

Bill can bring you out
through the side entrance, okay?

- Let's go.
- Listen, you don't know Randy!

You don't knowhim!

He will follow us
to Liz's party

and cause a huge scene!

And she does not deserve that.

What do you want us to do, sir?

There's only one person
that can deal with him.

Did you threaten

to call
the press on your brother?

I don't know exactly
what Mr. Jackson

said to Randy that night.

All I knew is,
he took care of the incident.

Apparently, he didn't need
an appointment

to fix a tough situation.

Clearly, he was still
in charge of the family.

And this is no way
to get somebody

to do somethin' for you.

Now, you stop actin'
like a damn fool

and take your triflin' ass home.

- But you don't understand--
- Do it!

'This should never
have happened.'

He can't just come up
to my house like this!

'This can never happen again,
do you understand?'

- Do you understand?
- 'We're sorry, sir.'

'We're sorry, sir.'

We can still make
that party if we hurry.

- 'Yeah.'
- It's ruined!

I can't, I can't bring
this to Liz's party.

'Well, sir, l-look

the perimeter's
totally secure now

or we can take you out
through the garage

just-just like always.

He'll be out there, waiting.
He'll follow me.

'I can't bring this to her.'

I won't do it to her.

Sir.

- So?
- I'm going to bed.

Are you sure, sir?

Good night.

As it turned out

he and Ms. Taylor never
saw each other again.

- I said, that's all.
- Yes, sir.

'Hey, Paris, no running,
no running!'

Mr. Jackson insisted
that there be

structure and routine
in their education.

School started every day
at 8 a.m. sharp.

Me! Me!

Alright, alright,
alright, calm down!

Calm down, let us,
calm down! Hey!

Hey, hey, hey!
Listen, sit down. Sit down.

Alright, it's map study time.

Blanket, please finish coloring
the Western States blue.

- Okay.
- Prince? Paris?

As strict as Mr. Jackson

was about homeschooling

sometimes we just needed to get
the kids out of the house.

- 'Can we stop, please, daddy?
- 'Daddy, can we stop?'

Oh!

- 'Look at that.'
- 'I want to..'

'Wow! Wow! Look at that.'

'Dad!'

I wanna do that.

Whoa!

'Dad! It's so cool.'

- 'Ready?'
- Whoa!

Whoa, I like it.

- Daddy, please can we go?
- Oh, come on.

- Please.
- Please, dad.

- Javon.
- Mm-hm.

Let 'em go out
for 20 minutes.

- 'Yay!'
- With pleasure.

- Come on, you guys, let's go.
- Whoa!

- Javon, get me down?
- Come on, old man.

Get on, get going, get going.

Today is the best day ever.

- You're seein' this?
- Hm.

'Blanket's gonna wear him out.'

I feel safe with Javon.

Oh, my God. I just wish I can
go out there and play with them.

I know, sir, I'm sorry,
but it's just too dangerous.

- 'How old is your daughter?'
- A little older than Prince.

- And your wife?
- Don't have one.

So you're a single father too.

- Yes, sir.
- Raising these kids alone.

'It's the hardest thing
I've ever had to do.'

Bill, look at them.

'I want 'em
to be happy all the time.'

We need a home.
We need a home, Bill.

Ten, nine, eight, seven,
six, five--

Five, four, three, two...one.

Oh!

Paris, say thank you to Bill.

Thank you, Bill.

You're welcome, Paris.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Alright, pajamas

and then we read a story.

- Okay.
- Alright, come on.

- Daddy?
- Yeah.

Why do people
call you "Wacko Jacko?"

Where did you hear that?

I saw it on TV.

Paris..

Sometimes people call me that

because I'm different.

Is different bad?

No, no, not always.

But it's not nice
to call people names.

I know.

- And Jehovah wouldn't like it.
- I know.

Okay, come on.

- 'Daddy?'
- Yeah.

If you're different then
I wanna be different too.

Come here. Oh.

I love you.

- Pajamas.
- Okay.

Alright.

I've been waiting for so long.

Hey, where's my sauce?
Where's my sauce?

Listen, dad, it's so cool.
It's so cool.

I'm telling you, this guy..

It's gonna start
in a minute. Prince?

Oh, yeah, thanks, dad.

Want some?

You don't want. He will.
He will.

I don't care what anybody
says about Michael Jackson

tryin' to turn himself
into a white man.

Anyone who insists
on takin' his own spray butter

and hot sauce
to a movie theatre

that man is black,
ghetto and hood.

Everybody, wait.
No, wait, wait, wait.

Wait, everybody,
calm down for a minute.

This is Charlie Chaplin.

He's my favorite actor.

And he's the
king of comedy, okay?

- Mm-hm.
- Yeah.

Bill?

You'll love him.

He is so good.

- It's a go, Bill.
- 'Roger that.'

Car's right over there.

Car's over there,
car's over there.

- Guy's come on.
- There you go.

There he is.

- Dad!
- Go!

- 'Hey, back off! Back off!'
- Back off!

Back off! Back off! Hey!

- They're hurting me!
- Hey! Hey! Let's turn back!

- Daddy!
- Dad!

- Daddy! daddy!
- Dad!

'Stay back, back up! Back up!'

- 'Daddy!'
- 'No!'

- Kids. Get the camera, Javon!
- 'Get down!'

He's got pictures
of the children.

'Back off!'

Get the camera!

Oh!

Somebody help her up.

Damn! Making me sweat
in my good suit.

- Get up, get up.
- Get off me..

- Give me the damn--
- No!

Give me that damn camera, man.

- Come on, good God!
- Give me the camera!

- Uhh!
- Come on!

Get your ass outta here.

Punk!

I'll always protect you.

You should never be afraid.

That's what I'm here for.

There are good people
in the world

and there are bad people.

And my job is to always
keep you from the bad.

Okay?

Come here.

The photographer
told the police.

Michael Jackson and his
bodyguards mugged him

and took his camera.

We're being indicted
for robbery.

So give him back the camera.

Uh, uh, I, I gave it to Bill.

'And I gave it to Feldman.

I destroyed it.

What? Why would you do that?

I don't know, I don't know,
but I can't go to jail.

I've got a family.
I can't...go down for this.

I'll call my lawyer,
make it go away.

Mr. Jackson paid
the photographer $75,000

to make it go away.

Feldman went away with it too.

'You better let me in.'

'I'm, I'm telling you.'

'Blanket, open. Blanket.'

'Let me in!'

Uh, is everything okay,
Mr. Jackson?

What?

We're playin' a game

and they locked me out.

Wait till I get Blanket..
Oh, can you let me in?

- Yes, sir, I can let you in.
- Come on, come on, come on..

Hey, Mr. Jackson.

'Raymone asked me to have you
sign those contracts today.'

After the game.

I'm telling you now.

- Well, hurry up.
- I'm tryin', man,

- They won't open it.
- Look at you.

I don't wanna sign these.

Should I tell them why, sir?

Everyone wants me
to do these shows.

'They say it's the only way
that I can pay off my debts.'

Buy me a house.

But they don't understand.

When people come
to a Michael Jackson show

they expect me to perform
from the beginning to the end.

'The whole show.'

I'm not like these Vegas acts.

That sit in the corner
and sing Kumbaya.

They want me to sing and dance.

I'm not that kid anymore, Bill.

I can't, I can't do
five nights a week.

I just can't.

It would kill me, Bill.

It would kill me.

You sent for me, sir?

I hate being stuck
in this house, Bill.

'I need to do something
different tonight.'

'I need to get out.'

What would you like to do?

'For once..'

...I just wanna
go out with my children.

In public, like a normal person.

I go through two
to three hours of make-up.

Trying to disguise myself.

They always recognize me.

Sir, what if I told you

I had a way that wouldn't
involve an ounce of make-up.

No way, this is crazy.

Okay.

It's very private.

This is a,

This is what
I wanted to show you.

It's beautiful.

I love this tree.

There're so many.

Oh, wow.

This sells for 55 million.

But it is worth
far more than that.

There's a wine cellar.

Fabulous wine cellar.
Do you enjoy wine?

I do, but I love this garden.

Yes.

Well, if you like this.

You really must see the inside.

- I'll go get the key.

Wow!

Beautiful, look at it.

This is what I wanted.

- Look at the waterfall.
- Whoa! Look at this tree.

- You like it?
- Are you kidding me?

This place is amazing.

'It has an indoor pool'

and guest quarters
for the governess.

The governors?

No, Javon, the governess.

The one who watches
over the kids.

Oh, y-you mean like a nanny.

I love it, I love it,

Look at 'em.

Look at the waterfalls.
And there's a turtle.

- You like it, huh?
- This place is amazing.

Can we have animals?

Of course, we can have animals.

- And call it Neverland?
- No, no, not that.

This place is filled with love

and peace, music and magic.

This place is called Wonderland.

Wonderland.

- I wanna see my room.
- Me too. Can we go inside?

Please, daddy? Please?

I really wanna see my room.

The agent says
she'll be here in 30 minutes.

- Please? Please?
- Please? Please?

Uh, why don't you go
and have a look

at the, uh, turtles
and stuff up there.

- Turtles..
- Oh, I wanna see the turtles.

Well, you guys
have something in the car

that can open the door, right?

Mr. Jackson, I'm not sure
that's a good idea.

Come on, it's fine. The realtor
already knows, it's my house.

I'm telling you. Come on.

- 'Heh!'
- 'I see, I see the turtle.'

I'm gonna go get the tools
out the car.

You know he's gonna get us
in trouble one of these days.

Hey, it's part of the job.

'Dad. Dad, look.
Look at the turtle.'

- 'Dad, come here.'
- Ah.

Yeah, "I'm gonna take you
on a nice date, Simone."

Our freakin' first night out

and you brought me
to this chicken spot.

You bring me
to a freakin' chicken spot.

Now, baby, this is our spot.
That's the whole point.

Alright? We haven't
been out in a while..

I feel like
I haven't seen you in forever

since we had the baby.

I mean, we're here now, right?

Are you really workin'?

What you talkin' about?

I mean, I just wanna know,
are you really working?

I don't know anyone
who works as much as you do.

- Are you seein' someone else?
- No. Really?

Babe, I told you, my boss
is really high-profile.

I don't wanna get fired, Simone.
I got a family to feed.

Okay, who is it?

Babe, I'm not seein' anyone--

Who is she? Don't touch me.

Who is she?

Are you gonna do this right now?

You're gonna do this right now?
Hm?

We haven't been out in months.

Can't we just have
a good time, huh?

This is crazy.
Can you go get me some water?

Go get me water.

You want cold or room temp?

Come on, you can't stay mad
at me. I'll get you some water.

Let me get some sugar first.

Stop.

Hey, how you doin'?

Do I know you, man?

Hey, man, how'd you like to earn
an easy 50,000?

What are you talkin' about?

I know who you work for.

I just want one photo, man.

One photo, you give me
the exact whereabouts

Michael Jackson and his kids,
at a specific time next week..

Money's yours. 50 Gs.

Get the hell outta here, okay?

Hey, hey. In case
you change your mind.

Yeah, alright.

I ain't gonna tell you
one more time, bro. Step!

Who was that?

Uh, just some clown.
I don't know.

You know white people.

Excuse me.
You need to pay for that.

Yeah, well, I was distracted

I-I'll get you the money
for the water. Don't worry--

No, you need to get
my dollar right now.

Mm-hm, watch your mouth
when you're talkin' to him.

I don't need to watch my mouth--

'Yes, you do.
You're not gonna talk'

'to my man like you're crazy.'

Thank you.

I'm not talking
to anybody like they're crazy.

What you need to do
is pay for that water.

- Look, heffa, lower your voice.
- 'Heffa?'

Little girl, Imma come over
this counter, okay?

Right? So you brought me
here to kick her butt.

That's what's about to happen.

Larry, come handle these people.

Yeah, Larry, come handle us.
I'll be right here, bro.

Larry's gonna get
his ass kicked too.

Bill, I love my fans

my fan mail.

Look at that,
"I just can't stop loving you."

Well, it's Ms. Bain.
Maybe I should answer it.

No, they're only gonna try
and get me to do things

I don't wanna do.

- Sir?
- Hello, Raymone.

Mr. Jackson, as you know

you came back to Vegas
to do a residency.

Listen, Raymone..

'The hotel has agreed
to the money'

and they've agreed
to build you a custom arena

just like they did
for Celine Dion.

I don't wanna think
about that right now.

Well, you need to think
about this now.

If you wanna buy
that $55 million house

you better get back up
on stage.

I told you, I can't do that.

Okay, well, then I guess
you'll just have to sell

your music catalogue.

No! I don't wanna sell
my catalogue!

I won't do it!

Damn it!

I'm sorry, Bill. I'm sorry.

- I'll get you a new phone.
- It's alright, sir.

'Is there anything I can do?'

Play my song, Bill.
The one I like.

Okay, sir.

Javon was having
his share of problems

and so was I.

Do you like them
better than me?

Hey, sweetie.

No. No.

I love you more than
anything in this world.

Hold on, baby.
I gotta take this.

Hello. Yes, Mr. Jackson?

She's coughin', she-she's
sneezin', she can't breathe.

'She has a fever.'

Okay, okay.
I'll take her to the ER.

In case you've forgotten,
I'm your family, not them.

'No. No, no, no.'

There'll be forms and press.

'I need a doctor here tonight.'

Bill, I don't know
what I'll do

if anything happens to her.

Sir, I know,
and I will take care of it.

Hey. Hey, come on.

I'm sorry, baby.

Please, sweetheart, just
a little bit. You haven't had--

- No. No, no, no!
- Just a little bit.

- Paris, you got to eat.
- I don't want soup!

- Then what do you want?
- I want to go home.

'I want to go back
to our real house.'

I wanna go back to Neverland.

Sir, the doctor's here.

Oh. Please come in.

Good evening, Mr. Jackson.

I'm Dr. Conrad Murray.

Thank you, doctor.
Thank you for coming.

- My pleasure, sir.
- Please.

How often did Dr. Murray visit?

Five or six times.

Did you ever see Dr. Murray
give Mr. Jackson drugs?

- Not that I recall.
- So, then what happened?

I had to stay back to pack up
the house for Wonderland.

And I went to Virginia
with the family for three weeks

thinkin' we'd return
to move into Wonderland.

At this point

our paychecks were erratic.

Sometimes
they didn't come at all.

Mr. Jackson decided
to take the children

on a summer vacation back eas.

So I went to Virginia
with the family

and Javon stayed in Vegas

to pack up the house
for the move to Wonderland.

- Alright, guys, let's get out.
- Oh, hear, oh, hear.

'Oh, Grace,
do you have my barbie doll?'

'Grace, let's go get Kenya.'

'Wait. Come on, Blanket,
let's go.'

Raymone said they're the best
security team in D.C.

I don't like
all these strangers around.

I got you.

- Is something wrong?
- No. Everything's fine.

- What is that?
- Boss wants them to pull back.

Twenty-eight,
twenty-nine, thirty.

Aa-aah!

- Oh!
- Daddy's it!

Daddy's it! Daddy's it!

Come on, Blanket. Let's go!

'Let's go, Blanket.
Let's go, Paris.'

- You see?
- Mm.

They would never have found me

if they weren't standing there.

I want them off, Bill.
I want 'em gone.

- Yes, sir.
- And where's my fan mail?

Get it for me.

Boss wants your guys
to pull back.

- Let them do their jobs.
- Let me do mine!

- And boss wants his fan mail.
- I'll bring it tomorrow.

- He wants it today.
- Tomorrow!

Come on, Blanket.

Mr. Jackson flew me back
to Las Vegas

to retrieve some box he wante.

I didn't feel comfortable
leaving him.

But, hey, he was the boss.

Mr. Jackson said
there's somethin'

really important in here.

- What do you think it is?
- I don't know.

Hello. Mr. Jackson.

I don't trust these guys, Bill.

Every time...every time
I'm outside with the children

'I could see them
calling Raymone.'

They're reportin'
everything I do to her.

I don't like that.

'I think they're taking
photographs'

of the children.

Call Raymone and tell her

to send you guys tickets now.

Today.

No, Blanket, round.

'Like that.'

'Come back over here.'

- 'I'll beat you, Paris.'
- No, you won't.

- Bill and Javon.
- Bill!

Hey, hey, hey.

Come on, what're you doin'?

Alright, alright,
you three, time for bed.

Welcome back. Welcome back.

Say good night. I know you have
to take a bath and go to bed.

- Bedtime. Bedtime.
- Good night.

- Thank you. Good night.
- 'I don't wanna go to bed.'

- How was your flight?
- No flight.

Raymone never sent the tickets,
so we drove.

You drove?

From Vegas to Virginia?

Yes, sir.

Wow.

- How long did it take?
- Three days.

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

Huh! Oh, you got it.

Oh, well..

Wait till I show you this.
Come inside.

- 'Okay.'
- 'Oh, my God.'

'I wanted you to show you this.'

'Oh, my God. This is
David O. Selznick's Oscar'

for "Gone With The Wind."

Open the case.

'From now on, I want you to be
responsible for this case.'

'I take that with me
wherever I go.'

Passports and $200,000 in cash.

'In case of emergency..'

'...the kids need a doctor,
or we need a flight.'

Just for emergency.

'Ms. Bain.'

Ms. Bain, wait!

Ms. Bain.

Ms. Bain, it's been four months.

All you have to do is get boss
to sign those contracts

and then we all get paid.

I'll even throw in
a $25,000 bonus when he does.

These are the loan documents
from Raymone Bain.

Okay.

These are the loan documents

from the other
attorney Greg Cross.

Mr. Cross says, "Do not sign

Ms. Bain's
under any circumstances."

Okay.

Ms. Bain says, "Do not sign

Mr. Cross'
under any circumstance."

Oh.. What, what..
What shall I do?

I can't tell you, sir.

Oh, my God.
Come on, let's do it.

Did I wake you?

No, I don't sleep.
What's wrong?

I just read
the strangest thing online.

They said you were dead.

That's why I keep the kids off
the internet.

That is so cruel.

"Michael Jackson Dead"
sells newspapers.

Sometimes I wonder
if people wish I was dead.

Why would you say that?

A lot of people believe
terrible things about me.

'They wish I was dead.'

'I'm confused.
Why were you so worried'

'about random gossip
about a pop star?'

Look, at this point
he was not the King of Pop

at least not to me.

He was just a man.

He wanted the same thing
normal guys want--

- What is that?
- Family! Friendship!

Safety! Love!

Okay, now, I'm thirsty.

Why don't we go

We got you.

That day

was the first
real indication I had

that Mr. Jackson
was on somethin'.

I saw him drink wine
from time to time

and get a little silly

but this was different.

'You know what I think?'

I think Mr. Jackson
was on drugs

and I think you two kept quiet

to save your jobs,
like the rest of the staff.

Man, if that ain't
the dumbest shit

your ass said all day.

We weren't gettin' paid.

Don't you get it?
We love that man!

We were the only two people
actually lookin' out for him.

'We did our damn jobs
and then some.'

'Drugs weren't his issue.'

He hadn't worked in years.

He spent tons of money
on lawsuits, legal fees

shopping and family.

Money was his issue.

He owned the Beatles' catalogue.

Sure he was rich on paper

but that was all tied up.

'The only way he or anybody else
was going to get paid'

was if he got back on stage.

And like I said

we hadn't been paid in months.

Man, Mr. Jackson
was basically homeless.

- Uncle Connie!
- Look who's here!

Mr. Cascio was
the general manager

of Mr. Jackson's
favorite New York hotel.

They became great friends
and he often

stayed with the Cascio family
in New Jersey.

Man, all the rooms
in this big-ass house

and boss wants to sleep
in the corner.

What's up with that?

And why is
the King of Pop staying

in a Jersey suburb anyway?

You haven't
figured it out yet?

Man, the longer
I stay in this job

the less I know.

Hey, he didn't want
to be the King of Pop.

He just wants to be Mike

a normal American dad.

Right? No..
Bring the bread.

Honey, would you like
a piece of bread?

- Thank you, Connie.
- Yeah. You guys enjoying it?

I can't believe you're putting
hot sauce on my spaghetti.

- He puts it on his popcorn too.
- He puts it on his popcorn?

- I love hot sauce.
- Welcome home, Michael.

- Thank you.
- We love you.

- I love you too.
- You're welcome, honey.

You know we have a spaghetti
factory in the basement.

'Spaghetti and meat balls,
that's where we make it.'

'You're welcome.
Everything okay, kids?'

'Because Blanket,
Blanket's on his 20th meatball.'

- Okay, eat.
- Prince, Prince, Prince.

No, honey, I'm glad you like it.

- Honey, this is beautiful.
- Eat. Eat, everybody.

- Give him a meatball.
- Blanket, honey.

Would you like
another meatball?

Blanket, I said you don't talk
with your mouth full.

Mike, Mike, come on,
come on, eat some more.

- I am, Dom, I am, I'm full.
- We got dessert coming.

- Who likes chocolate cake?
- 'Me!'

- I do.
- Me, me, me, me, me!

Looks like Mike got his wish.

- 'Hey, guys, come on in.'
- 'That works out.'

Hi, fellas. How are you?
Come on in.

Michael, let me make
your bodyguards

a plate.
The thin one looks hungry.

He looks a little skinny,
doesn't he?

Spaghetti and meatballs, guys?

- Make yourself at home.
- Yes, ma'am, thank you.

- Which one of you is Italian?
- I think--

Everybody's Italian
in this house!

'Open the door.'

- Javon?
- 'Open the door, Bill, yeah.'

Javon, what's up?

I need some money
to get my suit cleaned.

What the hell? We both need
to get our suits cleaned.

I've maxed out
all my credit cards, Bill.

'My car got repossessed.'

Simone..

Simone says
she's gonna take my baby

and leave me.

The man is a gazillionaire.

Tell him to sell
that library

or that Oscar.

Empty the emergency suitcase

or make a record, something.

- Javon--
- 'I mean, shit.'

He's the King of Pop!

We need to live too.

Wh-what, what are we
doing here, man?

- What are we doing here?
- Javon.

Bring your voice down.

Listen, okay?

Now, we can't leave, man.

If we leave, we not gonna
get that back pay.

Okay?

Why won't you
say something?

What the..
What do you want me to say?

- He listens to you.
- Listen--

Why won't you
stand up for us, man?

Javon, Javon..

We ain't goin' that way,
alright?

You just be patient.

- And do your job.
- For how much longer?

- How much longer we gonna be--
- I said I feel you, man.

You ain't thinkin'
about your daughter?

Say somethin', man.
You ain't feelin' shit, dude.

- Don't blow this.
- Blow what, man?

Ain't shit left to blow!

You guys are
doing a great job.

I'm gonna give
you guys a raise.

Thank you, sir.

Aren't you guys
happy about that?

Sir, we haven't been
paid in five months.

Yeah, and they even cut off
our per diems now.

Get Raymone on the phone.

- 'How can I help you, boss?'
- 'Raymone.'

I want you to pay
these guys now.

- 'But--'
- I don't want to hear excuses.

They are protecting me
and my family

'and without me'

'this machine doesn't run.'

Pay them!

You know it's not my fault,
right?

Yes, sir.

Brahms, please.

Mr. Jackson got a call
to do a photoshoot

for a national magazine.

The next thing I knew
we were in New York City

watching him transition
to the King of Pop.

Around that time, Mr. Jackson
had struck up a friendship

with a young film student,
Michael Amir.

They were spending
time together

scripting an animated movie
about King Tut.

Raymone Bain was out

and Michael Amir was in.

Steve, uh, get me the 200 ready.
Alright?

Okay, thank you.
It's ready? Alright.

Okay, Michael, we're ready
for you, so whenever--

- One minute, one minute.
- Alright. Thank you.

Okay. Uh, get me
these light over there.

Thank you.

Right here.

'Get me something warmer. Yeah.'

Well, good luck. Thank you.

Bill, Javon.
I've got a surprise for you.

♪ But I don't know what to do

I told you
I'd get your money.

Thank you, sir.

It's okay, I just,
I need your morale back.

I need smiles, okay?

'Michael, we're ready for you.'

In a minute,
in a minute.

Look, I know it's only half
of what I owe you. I'm sorry.

I'm figuring out
a way to get it

to pay you everything.

I have it. I just can't
get to it right now.

- You guys trust me, right?
- 'Excuse me.'

Come on.

Let's do this.

Okay, girls, thank you.
Michael, Michael, let's do this.

- Yes, okay, okay.
- Let's make magic together.

'Alright.'

Ready.

- I want one of these.
- Absolutely, Mr. Jackson.

Oh, my God, Bill..

I'm getting that
for Wonderland.

Yes, sir.

- I want candy.
- Yes, sir.

A big bag.

I love candy.

Bill, I need this.

Well, in what color?

I'll get blue.

Oh, my God.

I want this, Bill.

- Can I get one of these?
- Yes, Mr. Jackson.

Hm.

Oh.

Paris will love this, Bill.

No, wait, wait, wait.

- I want this.
- Yes, sir.

Prince.

I love it.

Spiderman, Bill.

I need a Spiderman.

Sure.

"Ugly Doll."

It's not ugly.

Bill, I'll take this

and his friends.

A-all of 'em.

Okay..

Did we get the giraffe?

'Yes. Yeah. Mm-hm.'

What about this one?
Did I get this?

'No, you haven't
gotten that one yet.'

Oh.

- I can take that, Mr. Jackson.
- Okay.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Blanket would
love this, Bill.

Blanket would love this.

Get that for Blanket.

Oh, my God. Wai-wai-wait.

I want this guy.

We'll put this in Wonderland.

Christmas.

Oh, my God.

I like this.

Paris, again.

- I want one of these.
- Yes, Mr. Jackson. Absolutely.

- Yeah?
- Mm-hm.

- I want it tonight though.
- Okay.

- Okay.
- I'll start ringing you up.

- Merry Christmas, Mr. Jackson.
- Thank..

M-Merry Christmas.

Are you not gonna get anything
for your daughter?

No, sir.
We haven't been paid yet.

Alright, Mr. Jackson.

Uh, with the car,
that brings the total

to $39,612.19.

How do you wanna
pay for this?

Mr. Jackson,
gonna use your card?

My card?

There you go.

- Thank you.
- Mm-hm.

Uh..

Um, this card's not authorized.

Oh, uh, let me see.

- Mr. Jackson.
- Yeah.

Did you authorize the card?

I authorize you
to use this card, Bill.

Okay.

Just try that
one more time.

- Put this one there.
- Mm-hm.

Okay.

Um, I'm, I'm so sorry.

- 'Uh..'
- Try it again.

There's plenty of money
on that card.

- It'll work.
- Okay.

Yeah, abs-absolutely,
Mr. Jackson, I..

I'm so sorry..

There must be something
wrong with the machine.

Yeah..

Ask her if we can
take everything tonight

and pay for it tomorrow.

Okay. Did you hear that?
Can we do it?

Um..

No. I'm sorry. I-I could
lose my job a-and..

Okay, um..

No.

Call my lawyer,
Londell McMillan.

Tell him to put it
on his card.

Sir, it's 4:00 a.m.
in the morning in New York.

Bill, my kids need
their presents.

I'm so sorry. I..
Just take your time.

Okay.

- Let me get that.
- Okay.

- Come on.
- Alright.

Oh, my God, look at,
look at all this stuff.

Yeah.

Okay.

Things are about
to change, Bill.

I'm talking to AEG

about London.

Oh, God.

I'll do ten days, max..

...and then after that

we don't have to worry
about money no more.

Okay.

- Do you understand?
- That sounds great, sir.

'Bill, I wanna warn you
that-that the vultures'

'are gonna start coming'

and everybody's gonna
want something

and nobody's gonna
trust anybody.

Bill, I need you to look
for golf carts.

Sir?

We need golf carts

to patrol Wonderland

after we move in.

Michael Amir used the new money

from AEG to rent Mr. Jackson

another temporary house.

Amir also brought in
a small army

of Fruit Of Islam
security guards

who answered only to him.

Javon and I were marginalized

pushed aside
and damn near pushed out

- Hey, Bill!
- Hey, Bill!

- Hey!
- Hey, Bill.

- How you doin'?
- We missed you.

- I missed you too.
- Love you.

- Bye, Bill.
- Alright. Bye-bye. Alright.

- Bye, Bill.
- Yeah.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Mr. Jackson would like
for you to have the fan mail

all legal correspondences,
everything

send directly to me now.

Not a problem.

Should we set up
the trailer?

We're not gonna be here long.

Just use the garage.

I'm gonna need you and Javon
to sign NDAs.

- What?
- You're protecting Mr. Jackson.

In the two years I've been
workin' for Mr. Jackson

have there been
any information leaks?

In those two years
Mr. Jackson wasn't workin'.

It's a new day.

What if I say no?

Then you and Javon
don't get paid.

Man, you know me.

You've seen what we've done
for Mr. Jackson.

How are you gonna look me
in the eye and tell me

you're not gonna pay me
until we sign some bull crap

non-disclosure?

New day

new rules.

I'll take it up with the boss.

I'll take that.

Hello?

'Bill, I don't know what
in the world is going on.'

I've been tryin' to get in touch
with my son.

His phone number
has been changed.

I'm sorry, ma'am.

He's got this new team.

Well, I'm worried about him
a-and my grandchildren.

Ms. Jackson, please don't worry,
I'm gonna have him call you.

Thank you, Bill.

He trusts you.

I trust you.

Yes, Ms. Jackson.

Mr. Jackson won't be
seeing you today.

I know.

He's busy.

Y'all workin' on somethin' big.

I heard it all before.

Look, man, I get it.

You doin' you.

But I'm not here tryin' to get
anything from Mr. Jackson

I'm here because I'm concerned.

Don't be.

He's taken care of.

You tell him
to call his mother.

Hold on.

I love you. I really do.

From the bottom of my heart.

This is it!
This is it!

This is it!

This is it!
This is it!

This is it! This is it!
This is it!

When I say "This is it"

this is really it.

This is the final curtain call.

I'll see you in July.

Michael! Michael!
Michael! Michael!

Michael! Michael!
Michael! Michael!

Mr. Jackson was
rehearsin' in Los Angeles

and we were in Vegas
preparin' for London.

Hello?

'Are you sure it's not him?'

It's not his number.

But Imma find out
who it is right now.

'Hello?'

Who is this?

'May I help you?'

You called me first,
asshole.

See, same freakin' guy.
Who the hell is this?

'Bill, it's me, Mr. Jackson.'

Oh! Mr. Jackson.

I'm sorry, I thought
it was a prank call.

You really didn't know
it was me?

You got me.
It was a good voice.

What happened to you guys?
I-I'm in LA.

'Why aren't you guys
here with me?'

I told Michael Amir
to send you guys tickets.

Tickets never came.

I need you and Javon

in Los Angeles.

I need you here now.

Yeah, we'll see you in London
in a couple weeks.

So, how does it feel
to be going back on stage?

When this is over..

...I'll, I'll have enough money
to get out.

'No more debts.'

I'm gonna,
I'm gonna buy that house..

...for my children.

And you guys
are gonna be fine.

And, Bill..

God bless you, Bill.

God bless you too, boss.

Somethin' in my gut
told me I needed to go.

I booked a flight to LA
for the next day.

Baby.

I'll be in LA for
a couple of weeks for rehearsal

and then I'll be
in London for four months.

- Can I come visit?
- Only if you behave.

Take care of my baby.

I got you.

Hello?

Turn on the news.

An incredibly
fast moving story..

And, Phil, I'm being told right
now that Jermaine Jackson

'the pop star's brother is about
to speak to the press.'

'I can confirm that, breaking
right now..'

'He's approaching the podium and
will be giving a statement..'

My brother

the legendary King of Pop,
Michael Jackson

passed away on 2:26 p.m.

'He suffered cardiac arrest
in his home.'

His personal physician,
who was with him at the time

attempted to resuscitate
my brother

'as did the paramedics
who transported him'

'to Ronald Reagan
UCLA Medical Center.'

'A team of doctors including'

emergency physicians
and cardiologists

attempted to resuscitate him

for a period
of more than one hour

'and they were unsuccessful.'

'Our family
requests that the media'

'please respect our privacy
during this tough time.'

They sat there at that memorial

with all those people

talking about what
a great friend Michael was

and...how much
he meant to them

and...the only thing
I could think was..

...where the hell were they?

Where were they when the phone
didn't ring for days?

When he couldn't sleep at night

he had nobody in the world
to talk to.

Yeah, and when,
when Paris' birthday came

and...nobody showed up..

...except for the nanny

and a couple security guards.

Where the hell were those people
when he needed them?

'You said that you think'

'Mr. Jackson would
still be alive'

'if you were there.'

I don't know about all that.

But I know we definitely woulda
done things differently.

I heard those people
on the phone talkin' about

"We have a gentlemen here,
and he's not breathin'."

Man, to hell with that.

I woulda thrown him in the car
and took him to hospital myself.

Yes, straight up.

Did Dr. Conrad Murray
kill Michael Jackson?

Michael Jackson was going
to die in L.A.

The show,
all this pressure..

...it was going to happen.

And it's so hard..

...because I don't
know if those kids

are ever gonna
find their Neverland.

Hey, maybe they have..

...you know.

May-maybe Neverland is just..

...a normal life.

What else do you wanna know?
