[instrumental music]

Yo, is that thing on or what?

Yeah, yeah, dawg, look at that red light.

See it?

[Palehead's "Here We Go" playing]

'Yo, what's up, mamacitas?'

'Oh, shwing!'

[both laughing]

Stop being a reject. Give me that.

[laughing]

You're about to enter another dimension.

It's a dimension not only of sight and of sound..

But of tweakers, preps

horny housewives and morons galore.

It's the ninth circle of hell.

The sweaty armpit of Suburbia.

You've just crossed over into..

...the mall.

[laughing]

'Whoa, whoa, whoa.'

- Shop till you drop. - Right on.

(Neal) 'Uh-oh.'

'"Eenie, meanie'

'"miney, mo.'

'"Catch a tiger by its toe.'

"If he hollers

"let him go.

'"Eenie..'

'"...meanie..'

'...miney...mo."'

[chuckling]

Looks like it's homeslice's lucky day.

'Ah, dope.'

[laughing]

A regular Saturday afternoon

'in America's town square.'

Huh.

[gun cocks]

[gunshot]

Everyone.

[people screaming]

[automatic gunfire]

[both laughing]

[screaming]

(woman on TV) 'The city is still reeling'

'weeks after two teenage gunmen'

'opened fire at the Woodland Valley mall'

'killing 15 bystanders before taking their own lives.'

[instrumental music]

The lieutenant still got you in deep freeze, Lil?

The man knows how to hold a grudge.

This about that fugitive, what's his face?

It's Joseph, and it's past tense

the fugitive part.

Is that a fact?

At least from what I hear.

I wonder where he's, uh..

...docking his tugboat these days.

You got me.

Okay.

So, Scotty, you coming with tonight?

- Why, what's up? - Nurses.

Nice.

Oh, milking that newfound bachelorhood, huh?

Every drop.

- Morning, boss. - Scotty. Nick.

Boss.

You remember the Coulter-Hanlon job back in '95?

Two kids opened up with a shotgun

and a TEC-9 in the mall?

Yeah. Took forever to process the scene.

The doers offed themselves

after taking out, what, uh...15 people?

The contractors renovating the air vents

found a video camera.

(Rush) 'And?'

Well, it looks like it was used to film the massacre.

(male #1 on video): 'Yo, what's up, mamacitas?'

(male #2) 'Oh, shwing!'

[laughing]

'Stop being a reject. Give me that.'

(Miller) 'Real laugh riot, these two.'

The survivors say they busted a gut the whole time

they were mowing folks down.

Hell of a thing to get on tape.

(Stillman) 'The only footage that exists.'

No working surveillance cameras in that wing of the mall.

Only at the two exits.

The survivors never mentioned the kids having a video camera.

A lot of times in shootings like this

people's memories are shaky.

(Rush) 'One witness claims the gunmen were wearing'

red baseball caps, another swears they were yellow.

Killer kids.

First this then Columbine.

- Glad I don't got kids. - I thought I saw something.

Rewind it.

'Right there.'

Did you see his face?

Neal was handing off the video camera.

So what?

Who was he handing it to?

'Everyone.'

[people screaming]

A third shooter?

[instrumental music]

[theme music]

(Vera) '"I am The Destroyer'

'"The Apocalypse'

'"The Widowmaker.'

'"I am a rifle, I am a gun.'

"Look down the barrel of my hate

we're going to have some fun."

Words to live by.

Cameron's journal, two days before the shoot-out.

And Neal's artwork

broadcasting their intentions

loud and clear.

According to classmates, everyone knew the game plan.

The boys talked about it 24/7.

But no one believed 'em.

Whatever happened to kids punching each other out?

Now they're mowing each other down.

And we still don't know why.

Ah, childhood buddies, uh..

Juniors at Lakefield High at the time of the killing.

(Vera) 'On weekends, Neal pushed a broom at the mall.'

Cameron was a counter boy at the Cinnamon King.

Well, maybe our third shooter works at the mall, too.

Stashes a video camera after the rampage, gets out of Dodge.

Where'd the camera come from?

Running the serial numbers.

According to the boy's computer logs

"The Destroyer" and "The Apocalypse"

were monikers they used online.

'Big fans of the game called'

"Renegade Massacre."

What all young minds should aspire to.

If Cameron was "The Destroyer"

and Neal was "The Apocalypse"

who's "The Widowmaker"?

Our third shooter.

The name doesn't come up in the logs.

Well, let's check with the parents could have went

to school with him.

Bring in the survivors, too. See what they remember.

Cameron's folks are still in town.

Neal's family relocated to Georgia two years ago.

If I were them I would have run for the hills, too.

I knew my kid wasn't the ringleader.

Cameron was always well-behaved. He was polite.

He was more of a follower, really.

He play a lot of online video games, Mr. Coulter?

I tried to get him into sports, but..

...he never took to them.

You familiar with a game called "Renegade Massacre?"

It's just a game.

Did Neal and Cameron ever play online games with other kids?

All the time.

Dayton Moore was one.

Dayton Moore? He was one of the survivors.

'He used to live down the block.'

Three of them were thick as thieves until high school.

He's a real bossy kid.

He bullied Cameron and Neal all the time.

Right. Thanks for your time.

You're going to interrogate him, aren't you?

We'll be in touch, Mr. Coulter.

It's easier for you to pretend we're monsters, isn't it?

Excuse me?

Just like the newspapers did.

The TV.

What everyone forgets..

...that day we lost a child, too.

[sirens wailing]

(male #3) 'My wife, her name is Jackie.'

'She's in there.'

(female #1) 'Please, help, my daughter's in there!'

'Get her out!'

'The survivors are coming out.'

Coming out.

'Tara, Tara, Oh, my God, Tara!'

(man) 'Tony, oh, my God.'

(little girl) 'Mommy! Mommy!'

'Dayton!'

- 'Dayton!' - Oh, Mom!

Mom!

Oh, baby.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

'There's..'

...there's more coming out, right?

There's got to be more coming out, right?

Are you the parents of Cameron Coulter?

Yes, we are.

- You need to come with us. - Why?

No, we...we've got to wait here for Cameron.

We think your son might have been involved.

What?

No, no, no. You're-you're mistaken.

My boy's not involved!

Jim, what is going on?

Oh, Jim.

[distant sirens wailing]

Everyone blamed us.

'We were just an ordinary family..'

...just like your own.

Ordinary families don't have military assault rifles at home.

A man has a right to his hobbies.

I'm a hunter.

What kind of animal

do you hunt, with a TEC-9 semiautomatic?

Could you leave that door open?

Me and closed rooms don't really mix so well.

Sure.

Detectives Rush, Miller.

Always looking for the exit, huh?

11 years later, you'd think I'd be over it.

You grew up with Cameron and Neal?

In grade school, that's pretty much it. Why?

You like playing games online, Dayton?

No, not really.

'The game "Renegade Massacre?"'

Ring any bells?

I don't know.

How about "The Widowmaker"?

That was my online ID.

I gamed every once in a while, so what?

Then why lie?

'Cause I stopped playing

with those psychos way before..

...the, uh, the incident.

(Miller) 'Why?'

To them it wasn't just a game, it was..

...it was practice.

So maybe a closet geek

like yourself got caught up, too.

Took it past role-playing, made it real.

Look, lady..

I was a jock..

...pick of the high school litter.

I didn't need a fantasy life.

You did online.

The last thing I needed

was to be seen in public with those freaks.

[Smashing Pumpkins playing "Bullets with Butterfly Wings"]

Check out Butter Face.

'Everything's hot, "but her face."'

[chuckling]

'Check out Davie the dork.'

'We all were.'

Maybe if we hadn't, then, you know

none of this would of happened.

He killed a lot of innocent people.

You're not responsible for that.

Then who is?

[instrumental music]

They look so normal.

[siren wailing at a distance]

Are those the kids who did it?

Yeah.

Some of the victims, too.

Went to the same school.

Could be the third shooter's in here.

You getting any closer to finding him?

Most time, the doer's already in the box.

Really?

Yeah.

Hmm.

Really.

Aren't you going to put that away?

- No. - Why not?

'Cause..

...it helps me remember.

Keeping photos of the victims up there.

Remember what?

[breathes deeply]

[cellphone rings]

You must have had my photo up there, too.

[giggling] No way.

[laughing]

[phone continues ringing]

Rush.

Been going through the security footage from the mall.

Okay.

Something you got to see.

'Be there in a few.'

[sighs]

I'll be a couple hours.

Sorry.

'You got to do what you got to do.'

[siren wailing at a distance]

You might as well get some sleep now.

Why's that?

'Cause you won't get much later.

(Kat) Only two ways in or out of this part of the mall.

Security cameras were at each exit.

So, we can see who went in with Cameron and Neal.

Nope. Crowd's too thick, couldn't even spot the boys.

What about who came out after the shooting started?

(Nick) 'Take a look.'

3:05, the shooting begins.

(Kat) 'Trapping 40 civilians inside that wing'

and our third shooter.

The rampage continues for 15 minutes and ends

when SWAT shows up right here.

So how'd our third shooter get out?

That's what we were wondering.

[sighs]

Well, maybe our guy offed himself.

Got caught in the cross fire.

Cameron and Neal had the only self-inflicted gunshot wounds.

So, if our third shooter isn't one of the dead..

He's posing as one of the survivors.

[instrumental music]

(Scotty) 'Been interviewing survivors all morning. No dice.'

(John) 'Keep at it, one of them is got to have seen something.'

A lot of blacked out memories. Tough going back.

The bottom line, people don't want to remember.

Hey.

Late night with the nurses?

- Somebody's gotta play doctor. - What have you got, Nick?

Lead on the video camera, traced it back

to an electronic store at the mall.

Turns out it was stolen a few days before the attack.

Great.

One of our survivors, a kid named

Davie Schulman, was a stock boy there.

- You have a talk with him? - Miller's on it.

Well, meanwhile, let's keep interviewing the rest of them.

Scotty, you got a minute?

[clears throat]

Get the door, huh?

Detective Renaldi at West.

- You're familiar right? - Yeah, sure.

He gave me the heads up on a job they've been working.

Okay.

A coach at a..

...community boxing program, early '80s.

- A pedophile. - Is that right.

Your brother's name came up.

What, Mike?

Now, what's he got to do with it?

Well, it says here he was in the program

when he was 12.

So what?

Well, one of the guy's former students

is going to testify, says he should, too.

- He's got it wrong. - You might want to take a look.

Like I said, boss, my brother's got nothing to do with it so--

The guy's still out there by the way, coaching.

Until this thing goes to court.

No harm in looking, right?

[instrumental music]

I kind of lost my trust in people after that.

I guess that's why I ended up here.

We're talking to all the survivors, Davie.

There might have been a third shooter.

Third shooter?

You see anyone else that day

with Cameron and Neal?

I barely remember anything.

Flashes, sometimes.

It was so loud.

The gunfire.

I didn't know bullets could do that to people.

It's not like in the movies.

No, it's not.

I don't...really like to talk about it?

The third shooter was using a video camera.

'It was stolen from the store you worked at.'

Got something to share, Davie?

- You think I stole it. - Did you?

No.

But you know who did.

["A Girl Like You" by Edwyn Collins]

(Tina) 'Davie, hey, what's up, Papi Chulo?'

Hey.

These are cool video cameras.

Maybe, we can make some porn.

Bow-chicka-bow-ow.

I got to have one, make a distraction for me, okay?

A distraction, like-like what?

Like, throw up or something.

[chuckles] I'm just kidding, Davie.

♪ Here you a-knockin', knockin' on my door ♪

Hmm, they should get a room.

He was a jerk to you, T. Screw him.

Zack's not that bad.

Then why's he act like he doesn't even know you.

'Cause I'm the hit and run queen.

Quit talking about yourself like that.

Just thought he'd be different, I guess.

What a sucker.

Anyway, I'm out of here.

Oh, uh, what about the video camera?

What about it?

What, you think I'm klepto or something?

See...see you later, I guess.

Not if I see you first.

[chuckles] Thanks a lot.

Tina was a lost kind of soul.

She wouldn't have hurt anyone.

You keep in touch?

I dropped out of school after, you know..

...we kind of drifted apart.

Thanks for your time, Davie.

If you think of anything else..

...here's my card.

[instrumental music]

I was a bad girl, desperate for attention.

Shoplifting was means to an end.

How'd the video camera you stole end up in those boys' hands?

What are you talking about?

Cameron and Neal used it to film their shooting spree, Tina.

What? Are you sure?

- You knew them, right? - 'From high school.'

Yeah, but..

...those guys were seriously damaged goods.

Talked about killing all the time, everyone knew it.

Maybe we should have listened to them, huh?

Tell us what happened to the video camera.

I got busted, okay?

Security guard took me to mall jail.

Then what?

He threatened to call my folks

but hell if I was going to let that happen.

[giggling]

(Barry) 'The mall's entire surveillance system.'

Lay of the land.

[giggles]

So you can see everything from here.

Half these cameras are for show.

AKA "dummies."

What about the cameras on the second level?

Yeah, the ones near the escalators.

(Barry) '100 percent fake-o's.'

'Management's a bunch of tight wads.'

So you could basically take a machine gun in this place

and nobody would ever know.

'Or care.'

Just imagine the look on all their faces.

(Lewis) 'That'd be something to see.'

All those happy little folks.

'Not so happy no more.'

Why was he showing them the mall security system?

'Cause he was a loser or desperate for attention.

What happened to the video camera?

He never ended up calling my parents.

Guess he pocketed it for himself.

[telephone ringing]

Barry Lewis?

- Yeah, that's me. - Philly PD.

Here about the mall shootout back in '95.

That's not something I spend a lot of time reminiscing on.

Wonder why you never mentioned swiping that video camera.

Video camera?

I love it when they play dumb.

The camera you used to film your little shoot-out.

Whoa. Hold up there, now.

I was shot, if you don't recall.

Great way to take the stink off

what with your condition and all.

What exactly are you accusing me of?

Being a mall rent-a-cop on a power trip.

Planning a massacre with two whacked-out assassins.

And filming it. That about covers it.

Those kids stole that camera off my desk.

How convenient.

Still doesn't explain why you were showing them

the surveillance system.

They gave me respect.

So you gave two sociopaths the keys to the kingdom?

Didn't matter in the end. Me showing them the system.

What do you mean it didn't matter?

Those kids weren't trying not to be seen.

They wanted to be on camera.

Why would they want that?

Same reason everybody else does.

Fame.

[continuous gunshot]

[crowd shrieking]

[gunfire continues]

[muffled screams]

Smile for the camera, sucker.

[whimpering]

Hey...Hey..

[whimpering]

Hey!

Let him bleed.

Hey. Hurry.

[gunfire]

You're okay. You're okay.

(Tina) 'Come on.'

Look at me.

No, wake up, wake up. Look at me. Look.

I ca...I can't feel nothin'.

- Hey, hey, where's your wallet? - What?

- Huh? - Your wallet.

You got your wife's picture in here or your kids'?

(Tina) 'You think about them 'cause you can't die.'

I don't...I don't got nobody.

- Sorry. - No, no.

Then you got to live. Okay? Okay, you got to live.

'Cause if you get out of here

then maybe, you can find somebody, okay?

You just got to live. Okay?

[gunfire]

Okay.

[crowd yelling]

- I-I-I did this. - Dayton!

All of it.

'It's all my fault. it's all my fault.'

I thought I was gonna die.

What that girl said, pulled me through.

What did Dayton mean, "I did this, all of it"?

You got me.

Could be, he's our third shooter.

(Lewis) 'Makes sense.'

'Cause I certainly wasn't.

[instrumental music]

You know, you guys can't keep me in here.

Oh, we can do whatever we want, Dayton. We're the police.

We know what you did. You told Barry and Tina about it.

You know, I don't have to be in here.

I'm leaving.

Sit down.

(Cameron on TV) 'You're about to enter another dimension.'

It's a dimension not only of sight but of sound.

(Neal) 'Full of tweakers, preps, horny housewives and morons galore.'

Turn that off.

You played "Renegade Massacre" for hours with those boys.

It was just a stupid video game.

Maybe, playtime got boring after a while.

Maybe you needed the real deal.

- Were you in on their plan? - No!

- 'Sure about that?' - I'm leaving.

Come here!

Is this... is this a game to you?

Turn it off.

Please. Please.

I tried to stop 'em.

I knew it was wrong..

...what they were gonna do.

- Cameron and Neal? - 'No.'

- Who? - Zack.

And the others.

Your friends?

What'd they have to do with the shooting?

'Cause of what happened earlier that day.

I tried to stop 'em.

Maybe, if I had..

...none of this would have happened.

[boys giggling]

[girl moaning]

Oh, fuck!

What's going on, man?

- Teddy said you guys are back. - Shh!

[girl groaning]

(Zack) 'What's up, dudes?'

- Oh! - Ooh!

Who's your daddy now?

[laughing]

(Zack) 'Whoa, whoa, hold up there.'

Where do you think you're going to?

- Stop it! - Leave her alone, Zack.

Shut up, Dayton.

No. Stop it! Don't touch me.

Stop it. No! No!

- No! No! - Giddyap!

Stop! No!

No!

(Tina) 'Ow! Ow!'

Stop it! Get off of me!

(Tina) 'No! No!'

[Tina shrieking]

Stop it! Get off!

- Tina! - Davie!

Davie!

[Tina yelling]

Oh, Davie! Davie!

I'll kill all of you!

I tried to stop them.

I'm gonna put a bullet into all your heads.

I tried.

(Dayton) 'I did.'

When did this happen?

An hour before the shooting started.

(Miller) 'A bullet in all their heads.'

You wanted them to pay.

(Valens) 'Don't blame you.'

Someone did that to my girl..

(Valens) 'Forget about it.'

(Miller) 'So you reached out to Cameron and Neal.'

Everyone knew their plan, knew they had guns.

And you had all the motive in the world.

- I didn't do anything. - Now, come on, Davie.

These guys mauled the girl you're in love with?

You got to settle the score.

Must have hurt.

'Being in love with someone..'

...who didn't love you back.

Yeah, it did.

'But maybe, if you saved her'

from the big bad wolves..

...she would?

- I didn't save her. - You tried.

No.

You don't understand.

I would have done anything for Tina.

'Cause all I ever wanted was for her to like me.

But I let her down when she needed me the most.

[Bush singing "Glycerin"]

I should have stopped her.

But...you didn't.

I didn't believe anything bad would really happen.

No one did.

[knock on door]

The boss and Lil just headed over to the mall.

The mall? Why?

Tina walked in a few minutes ago.

With a gun.

[feeble radio communication]

You got the area cleared?

She'll be killed if they go in.

She's armed, Lil. I don't have a choice.

- Let me talk to her. - No way.

Tina doesn't want to hurt anyone but herself.

If she raises the gun, I'm not holding them back.

Alright, let her through.

[garbled radio communication]

Heads up, guys. There's one of ours coming in.

[soft instrumental music]

I'm going to sit down.

If that's okay with you.

Easy, Lil.

I know why you're here, Tina.

I know what happened to you.

I haven't set foot in this place for..

...for 11 years.

The same music, same kids, same heartbreak.

(Tina) 'Nothing changes.'

No. It doesn't.

I should have done this a long time ago.

Like Cameron, Neal.

So when does it end?

The violence.

I wanted to hurt them like they hurt me.

I have to pay for what I did.

No.

For every gun that's fired..

...someone can't be in a closed room.

'Or a walk...or see their child again.'

It's not just you who pays, Tina.

It never is.

I know.

Give me the gun.

Give me the gun.

[music continues]

[whimpering]

They were little kids. They were moms and dads.

And they never hurt anybody.

And it didn't matter to Cameron and Neal.

They were human time bombs.

Just waiting to go off.

And I lit the fuse.

[dramatic music]

You want to make a porn film?

Bow-chicka-bow-ow.

Girlfriend's seriously tweaked.

Or I could film you..
