Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:01:09,570 --> 00:01:11,572
Marsh is not swamp.
2
00:01:13,574 --> 00:01:15,659
Marsh is a space of light...
3
00:01:18,620 --> 00:01:20,122
where grass grows in water...
4
00:01:21,748 --> 00:01:23,792
and water flows into the sky.
5
00:02:08,045 --> 00:02:10,714
Then within the marsh, here and there...
6
00:02:13,091 --> 00:02:14,301
true swamp.
7
00:02:54,549 --> 00:02:56,468
A swamp knows all about death...
8
00:02:57,844 --> 00:03:00,347
and doesn't necessarily
define it as tragedy.
9
00:03:01,390 --> 00:03:02,808
Certainly not a sin.
10
00:03:05,477 --> 00:03:08,146
I thought Chase Andrews
would have more common sense.
11
00:03:08,980 --> 00:03:11,650
Best quarterback this town ever had.
12
00:03:14,736 --> 00:03:17,489
Boys, are these your footprints here?
13
00:03:17,572 --> 00:03:18,490
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.
14
00:03:25,706 --> 00:03:27,124
Where's his footprints?
15
00:03:34,756 --> 00:03:37,968
Yeah, some kids
just get crazy ideas in their heads
16
00:03:38,051 --> 00:03:40,804
and drink and think they're invincible.
17
00:03:41,388 --> 00:03:43,765
That Chase Andrews was no kid.
18
00:03:56,611 --> 00:03:58,864
Hey. Look at this.
19
00:04:08,373 --> 00:04:11,668
- He open the grate himself?
- Could've been an accident, all the same.
20
00:04:12,169 --> 00:04:15,505
Time of death,
between midnight and 2 a.m.
21
00:04:15,589 --> 00:04:19,509
Cause of death,
sudden impact from the 63-foot drop.
22
00:04:20,093 --> 00:04:23,680
Since you found that blood
and hair on the support beam,
23
00:04:24,264 --> 00:04:27,601
I would deduce that
was the cause of the primary injury.
24
00:04:28,268 --> 00:04:32,647
Laymen's terms, he banged
the back of his head on the way down.
25
00:04:32,731 --> 00:04:34,524
To hit the back of his head on the beam,
26
00:04:34,608 --> 00:04:36,860
he would've needed
to fall backwards, is that right?
27
00:04:36,943 --> 00:04:40,071
- I'd say yes.
- So he might have been pushed.
28
00:04:40,155 --> 00:04:42,908
There's no fingerprints on the railing,
the grates, nothing.
29
00:04:42,991 --> 00:04:46,036
No fingerprints? Not from Chase either?
30
00:04:47,621 --> 00:04:49,790
No fingerprints, no tracks.
31
00:04:49,873 --> 00:04:54,085
We do have those red fibers
found on the jacket.
32
00:04:54,669 --> 00:04:57,547
I just got the lab report
back from Atlanta.
33
00:04:58,048 --> 00:05:01,384
They did not come
from any of his other clothing.
34
00:05:01,468 --> 00:05:05,931
Wool, it says.
That could be a sweater, scarf.
35
00:05:06,014 --> 00:05:07,641
Hell, it could be anything.
36
00:05:07,724 --> 00:05:09,184
And we gotta find it.
37
00:05:09,267 --> 00:05:13,271
A beautiful wife, good family. Can't think
of anyone who'd want to kill Chase.
38
00:05:13,355 --> 00:05:15,148
Come on. You know how Chase was.
39
00:05:15,232 --> 00:05:17,901
Tomcattin', ruttin' around
like a penned-up bull let out.
40
00:05:17,984 --> 00:05:19,694
Don't speak ill of the dead, Frank.
41
00:05:19,778 --> 00:05:22,948
I'm just saying
I could think of a few guys up to it.
42
00:05:23,031 --> 00:05:24,908
- Mr. Milton.
- Hi, Sandy.
43
00:05:24,991 --> 00:05:27,118
- The usual? Brunswick stew?
- How'd you guess.
44
00:05:28,453 --> 00:05:31,039
What do you make
of the Chase Andrews case, Tom?
45
00:05:31,122 --> 00:05:34,084
I'm retired.
That's none of my business anymore.
46
00:05:34,167 --> 00:05:36,795
- Fair enough.
- Could've been that woman in the marsh.
47
00:05:36,878 --> 00:05:40,173
She's crazy enough for the loony bin.
I bet she'd be up to something like this.
48
00:05:40,257 --> 00:05:42,843
My brother's told me
that Marsh Girl's the missing link.
49
00:05:42,926 --> 00:05:45,846
You know poor Chase Andrews
had something going on down in that marsh.
50
00:05:45,929 --> 00:05:49,307
Chase Andrews and the Marsh Girl?
Now if that ain't asking for trouble.
51
00:05:52,102 --> 00:05:55,939
What do you think really happened, Frank?
You think that Marsh Girl killed Chase?
52
00:05:56,022 --> 00:05:58,441
Hell, I don't know. Truth will come out.
53
00:06:22,465 --> 00:06:25,844
Look at all these feathers and whatnot.
54
00:06:27,637 --> 00:06:30,807
She a scientist or a witch?
55
00:06:33,894 --> 00:06:35,270
Miss Clark?
56
00:06:39,107 --> 00:06:41,109
- Sheriff's Department.
- Sheriff.
57
00:06:42,986 --> 00:06:43,820
Look.
58
00:06:44,446 --> 00:06:45,947
Could get a warrant.
59
00:06:46,656 --> 00:06:49,117
Plain view. Probable cause, sheriff.
60
00:06:51,661 --> 00:06:53,580
Bet that door isn't even locked.
61
00:07:44,297 --> 00:07:45,382
There she is.
62
00:07:47,050 --> 00:07:50,470
This is the Sheriffs Department.
Shut down your engine.
63
00:07:58,770 --> 00:08:01,523
Go straight, go straight. Follow her in!
64
00:08:40,895 --> 00:08:43,064
- You're guilty!
- You killed Chase Andrews!
65
00:08:43,148 --> 00:08:45,108
- You'll pay for this, Marsh Girl!
- Rot in jail!
66
00:09:03,084 --> 00:09:06,337
Sunday Justice. Where you gone, kitty?
67
00:09:07,464 --> 00:09:09,007
Please stay.
68
00:09:09,090 --> 00:09:10,633
Here, kitty, kitty.
69
00:09:27,609 --> 00:09:28,860
Miss Clark?
70
00:09:30,695 --> 00:09:32,572
I'm Tom Milton.
71
00:09:32,655 --> 00:09:34,991
I'm a lawyer. May I come in?
72
00:09:41,247 --> 00:09:42,749
Thank you, Mr. Frazier.
73
00:09:42,832 --> 00:09:48,046
You probably know that you're being held
for the murder of Chase Andrews.
74
00:09:48,129 --> 00:09:52,509
And I have taken the liberty of putting
myself forward to defend you.
75
00:09:52,592 --> 00:09:54,969
I know you've never been
in trouble before,
76
00:09:55,053 --> 00:10:00,391
so I can explain the courtroom
and the trial and who is who and whatnot.
77
00:10:04,145 --> 00:10:07,315
Do you have family that
you might want to come be with you?
78
00:10:14,948 --> 00:10:19,577
Miss Clark, I don't quite know
how to put this, but...
79
00:10:21,329 --> 00:10:25,708
Well, I know you
as Catherine Danielle Clark,
80
00:10:25,792 --> 00:10:29,587
but here in Barkley Cove
they don't call you by that name.
81
00:10:29,671 --> 00:10:31,297
They call you Marsh Girl.
82
00:10:32,423 --> 00:10:35,260
And when you stand trial,
83
00:10:35,343 --> 00:10:38,012
you will be judged by a jury of your peers
84
00:10:38,096 --> 00:10:41,182
from Barkley Cove,
who only know you as such.
85
00:10:41,266 --> 00:10:45,395
They are going to judge you
whether they know you or not.
86
00:10:47,230 --> 00:10:52,694
But I can't help you unless I know you.
87
00:10:52,777 --> 00:10:54,988
Even just a little bit.
88
00:10:59,033 --> 00:11:00,368
Well, all right, then.
89
00:11:02,078 --> 00:11:06,082
I'll come back in a while
when you've had time to consider.
90
00:11:08,293 --> 00:11:12,589
And I brought you this
just in the meantime.
91
00:11:20,013 --> 00:11:21,347
Mr. Frazier.
92
00:11:25,685 --> 00:11:29,189
People forget about the creatures
who live in shells.
93
00:11:32,567 --> 00:11:34,027
I had a family once.
94
00:11:36,487 --> 00:11:38,031
They called me Kya.
95
00:11:44,787 --> 00:11:45,830
Kya!
96
00:11:45,914 --> 00:11:48,875
Kya! You'd better not get too far out.
97
00:11:50,668 --> 00:11:51,586
Get it, get it!
98
00:12:08,686 --> 00:12:10,730
Now this little piggy went to market.
99
00:12:10,813 --> 00:12:12,232
Now you hold still.
100
00:12:14,025 --> 00:12:15,860
This little piggy stayed home.
101
00:12:16,653 --> 00:12:18,988
This little piggy ate roast beef.
102
00:12:19,656 --> 00:12:22,033
This little piggy had none.
103
00:12:22,116 --> 00:12:28,164
And this little piggy went
wee-wee-wee-wee all the way home.
104
00:12:32,085 --> 00:12:34,003
That's my special girl.
105
00:12:38,424 --> 00:12:39,634
Hey, Jodie!
106
00:12:41,552 --> 00:12:42,971
Hey, Tate!
107
00:12:43,054 --> 00:12:45,098
Wanna come fishing?
108
00:12:46,516 --> 00:12:49,769
- I ain't got too much time.
- "Ain't" isn't a real word.
109
00:12:51,813 --> 00:12:55,692
Hey, how many times I told you
not to mess in my goddamn boat?!
110
00:12:57,652 --> 00:12:59,821
Get in the house! Are you stupid?!
111
00:13:02,573 --> 00:13:05,326
Come here! Now you've done it.
112
00:13:06,494 --> 00:13:08,705
You gotta learn respect. You hear me?
113
00:13:10,248 --> 00:13:13,001
- Stop it! You're hurting her!
- Hey, you leave my pa alone!
114
00:13:13,084 --> 00:13:15,336
Come back on my land, I'll shoot you!
You hear me?!
115
00:13:15,420 --> 00:13:17,547
- Calm down now.
- Shut up!
116
00:13:19,215 --> 00:13:20,049
Shut up!
117
00:13:24,220 --> 00:13:25,680
- Leave me alone!
- I'll show you!
118
00:13:25,763 --> 00:13:27,140
Please just stop!
119
00:14:06,095 --> 00:14:07,597
Ma!
120
00:14:09,849 --> 00:14:10,683
Ma?
121
00:14:20,943 --> 00:14:22,111
Ma never came back.
122
00:14:24,364 --> 00:14:26,908
And everybody else
was quick to get out the same way.
123
00:14:27,909 --> 00:14:29,744
Murph was the first to leave.
124
00:14:31,537 --> 00:14:34,499
A few months later, Mandy and Missy.
125
00:14:37,710 --> 00:14:40,505
Then, finally, Jodie.
126
00:14:41,255 --> 00:14:42,090
Kya.
127
00:14:43,883 --> 00:14:44,884
Kya, listen.
128
00:14:45,927 --> 00:14:49,263
I have to go, Kya.
I can't live here no longer.
129
00:14:52,100 --> 00:14:53,726
Kya, you be careful, hear?
130
00:14:54,644 --> 00:14:55,853
If you're in trouble,
131
00:14:55,937 --> 00:14:59,357
run and hide deep in the marsh
way out where the crawdads sing.
132
00:15:01,150 --> 00:15:02,568
Like Ma always says.
133
00:15:21,587 --> 00:15:22,713
Run!
134
00:15:24,340 --> 00:15:25,341
Jodie!
135
00:15:26,801 --> 00:15:29,804
I learned from the mistakes
of the others how to live with him.
136
00:15:33,015 --> 00:15:34,559
Just keep out of the way.
137
00:15:35,309 --> 00:15:36,686
Don't let him see you.
138
00:15:37,645 --> 00:15:38,938
Fend for yourself.
139
00:16:31,365 --> 00:16:35,620
I had been out in the marsh plenty
of times with Jodie, but never alone.
140
00:16:37,246 --> 00:16:38,789
I didn't know which way was home.
141
00:16:39,499 --> 00:16:42,126
Damn you for leaving me here, Jodie!
142
00:16:44,545 --> 00:16:45,505
Damn you.
143
00:16:55,890 --> 00:16:57,350
You okay?
144
00:17:00,102 --> 00:17:01,729
You're Jodie Clark's sister.
145
00:17:02,438 --> 00:17:04,524
Used to be. He's gone.
146
00:17:07,777 --> 00:17:09,946
- You know your way home?
- Yeah.
147
00:17:17,370 --> 00:17:20,039
It's okay. I get lost all the time.
148
00:17:29,799 --> 00:17:32,134
My name's Tate, in case you see me again.
149
00:17:32,635 --> 00:17:33,678
Tate.
150
00:17:35,012 --> 00:17:38,933
There was something about that boy
that eased the tightness in my chest.
151
00:17:40,184 --> 00:17:44,605
For the first time since Ma and Jodie
left, I felt something other than hurt.
152
00:17:47,191 --> 00:17:48,693
I felt brave.
153
00:17:51,070 --> 00:17:52,071
I'm hungry.
154
00:18:05,876 --> 00:18:08,921
Morning, Mr. Clark. How you doing?
155
00:18:09,005 --> 00:18:13,050
Well, Jumpin',
I woke up on the right side of dirt.
156
00:18:14,719 --> 00:18:18,389
This is my daughter, Miss Kya Clark.
157
00:18:18,472 --> 00:18:20,808
Well, I'm mighty proud
to know you, Miss Kya.
158
00:18:21,726 --> 00:18:25,021
Don't mind her.
I tell her stay away from everybody.
159
00:18:25,104 --> 00:18:28,691
- It's a dangerous world, isn't it?
- It is. But the fishing's good.
160
00:18:28,774 --> 00:18:30,860
Could I get a bag of grits?
161
00:18:30,943 --> 00:18:33,404
And some of that Jim Beam?
162
00:18:34,030 --> 00:18:36,449
- And maybe you fill her up for me?
- It's okay.
163
00:18:37,575 --> 00:18:38,409
Mabel.
164
00:18:43,039 --> 00:18:44,540
You wait for our change, you hear?
165
00:18:47,793 --> 00:18:50,129
Helping out your pa
while your ma's gone?
166
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,965
I ain't seen her in a while.
167
00:18:54,091 --> 00:18:55,843
She's doing chores at home.
168
00:19:00,973 --> 00:19:02,558
Grits ain't much to go on.
169
00:19:05,519 --> 00:19:07,146
All right. Let's see here.
170
00:19:07,229 --> 00:19:09,732
Your pa left $2 here.
171
00:19:09,815 --> 00:19:15,029
And the bill is $1.50.
172
00:19:15,738 --> 00:19:17,281
How much does that leave for gas?
173
00:19:23,871 --> 00:19:25,081
Don't worry about that.
174
00:19:25,164 --> 00:19:27,041
I got another question for you.
175
00:19:27,750 --> 00:19:28,918
You go to school, honey?
176
00:19:31,796 --> 00:19:34,590
Do you know that they publish
the school lunch menu in the paper?
177
00:19:35,341 --> 00:19:36,842
Today's is...
178
00:19:38,177 --> 00:19:39,887
Salisbury steak.
179
00:19:39,970 --> 00:19:43,641
You could get a nice, hot meal,
make some friends.
180
00:19:44,350 --> 00:19:46,602
Plenty of kids go to school without shoes.
181
00:19:47,228 --> 00:19:50,106
But you will need a skirt.
182
00:19:50,189 --> 00:19:51,273
Ask your mama for one.
183
00:19:52,608 --> 00:19:53,526
There you go.
184
00:19:54,276 --> 00:19:57,571
And the change is 50 cents.
185
00:20:42,825 --> 00:20:43,826
Boys!
186
00:20:43,909 --> 00:20:46,078
Chase Andrews, what you got to say
for yourself?
187
00:20:46,162 --> 00:20:47,705
Sorry, Miss Pansy.
188
00:20:47,788 --> 00:20:49,957
We didn't see you
'cause that girl got in the way.
189
00:20:52,543 --> 00:20:53,377
Hello there.
190
00:20:54,795 --> 00:20:58,215
I think you've got yourself
turned around the wrong way, little lady.
191
00:20:58,299 --> 00:20:59,967
Isn't school that way?
192
00:21:00,050 --> 00:21:01,218
- So dirty.
- Gross.
193
00:21:02,970 --> 00:21:05,306
You have just as much
of a right to be there.
194
00:21:05,389 --> 00:21:07,808
Go along now. It's all right.
195
00:21:13,105 --> 00:21:18,235
Miss Catherine Danielle Clark,
are you reading and writing already?
196
00:21:20,654 --> 00:21:22,323
Can you spell "dog," honey?
197
00:21:26,786 --> 00:21:28,078
Who is that?
198
00:21:28,579 --> 00:21:31,207
G-O-D.
199
00:21:34,502 --> 00:21:37,379
Well, we can all use practice, can't we?
200
00:21:37,463 --> 00:21:41,258
You can go ahead and sit down,
Miss Catherine Danielle Clark.
201
00:21:43,844 --> 00:21:45,387
Where you been, marsh hen?
202
00:21:45,471 --> 00:21:47,515
Where's your hat, swamp rat?
203
00:21:47,598 --> 00:21:51,936
Now, boys and girls, settle down.
Just an hour until lunch.
204
00:21:52,019 --> 00:21:54,438
Please, try to pay attention
to our lesson.
205
00:21:54,522 --> 00:21:57,650
Who can tell me a word that
has a long vowel sound?
206
00:21:57,733 --> 00:22:00,945
- She probably lives in the mud.
- Someone's got cooties.
207
00:22:02,071 --> 00:22:03,739
That stink in the room.
208
00:22:04,740 --> 00:22:05,741
Excuse me.
209
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,287
That was the only day
I ever spent in school.
210
00:22:11,539 --> 00:22:13,874
Reckoned I was better off learning
from the wild.
211
00:22:16,544 --> 00:22:17,628
Hi, Tate!
212
00:22:34,687 --> 00:22:37,064
Need you to be careful out here.
You hear me?
213
00:22:38,190 --> 00:22:39,608
You can't trust nobody.
214
00:22:40,442 --> 00:22:41,777
You protect yourself.
215
00:22:58,085 --> 00:22:59,753
Great horned owl, probably.
216
00:23:01,922 --> 00:23:04,675
For a while, Pa was good to me.
217
00:23:13,392 --> 00:23:17,980
I thought you could use this
for your feathers, bird nests.
218
00:23:18,063 --> 00:23:19,565
Other stuff you collect.
219
00:23:22,651 --> 00:23:24,403
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
220
00:23:31,660 --> 00:23:33,871
- It was my old Army...
- Mail!
221
00:23:35,289 --> 00:23:36,874
It's my old Army knapsack.
222
00:23:45,090 --> 00:23:47,426
It's from Ma! It's from Ma!
223
00:23:48,135 --> 00:23:50,137
It's Ma's handwriting!
224
00:23:50,220 --> 00:23:52,473
- Ma's alive!
- Give it to me.
225
00:23:53,223 --> 00:23:54,308
Give it to me.
226
00:24:00,481 --> 00:24:02,441
- When's she coming home?
- Wait.
227
00:24:03,150 --> 00:24:04,234
What does she say?
228
00:24:08,572 --> 00:24:10,240
- No!
- Quiet.
229
00:24:10,824 --> 00:24:13,243
Pa! Pa, stop!
230
00:24:13,327 --> 00:24:15,996
Stop it! Stop that!
231
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,748
- Stop!
- Quiet. Quiet!
232
00:24:19,291 --> 00:24:20,209
Ma.
233
00:24:21,543 --> 00:24:22,544
Now you listen to me.
234
00:24:23,462 --> 00:24:24,964
She ain't never coming back.
235
00:24:26,090 --> 00:24:26,924
You hear me?
236
00:24:34,598 --> 00:24:35,891
That isn't true.
237
00:24:39,395 --> 00:24:41,480
"Ain't" isn't even a real word!
238
00:24:52,366 --> 00:24:54,034
Goddamn bitch!
239
00:24:57,830 --> 00:24:58,706
Useless.
240
00:24:59,581 --> 00:25:02,042
Pa took to burning any trace of Ma.
241
00:25:03,210 --> 00:25:05,045
Get your shit out of my house.
242
00:25:09,967 --> 00:25:11,135
And then one day...
243
00:25:12,469 --> 00:25:13,554
he was gone.
244
00:25:16,181 --> 00:25:18,058
Wasn't like the pain when Ma left.
245
00:25:18,142 --> 00:25:22,855
But being completely alone
was a feeling so vast, it echoed.
246
00:25:43,625 --> 00:25:46,503
And there was the small matter
of surviving.
247
00:25:50,090 --> 00:25:52,718
I didn't know
how to do life without grits.
248
00:26:21,246 --> 00:26:22,873
Well, hello, Miss Kya.
249
00:26:27,127 --> 00:26:29,046
You want something?
250
00:26:29,129 --> 00:26:30,464
Mr. Jumpin'...
251
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:33,967
I hear tell y'all buy mussels.
252
00:26:34,843 --> 00:26:36,303
I got some here.
253
00:26:38,430 --> 00:26:41,058
- They fresh?
- Dug them before dawn.
254
00:26:41,141 --> 00:26:42,059
Just now.
255
00:26:42,726 --> 00:26:44,812
Your pa sent you out with these?
256
00:26:50,484 --> 00:26:53,904
Look, I tell you what,
I'll give you 50 cent for the one bag
257
00:26:53,987 --> 00:26:55,906
and a full tank of gas for the other.
258
00:26:55,989 --> 00:26:57,616
How many bags y'all need a week?
259
00:26:58,158 --> 00:26:59,701
Are we striking up a business deal?
260
00:27:02,412 --> 00:27:05,999
I buy about 40 pound
every two, three days.
261
00:27:06,583 --> 00:27:08,127
Mind you, others bring them too.
262
00:27:08,210 --> 00:27:13,090
So if you bring them, and I already
got some, why, you'd just be out.
263
00:27:13,173 --> 00:27:16,593
It's first come, first served.
Ain't no other way of doing it.
264
00:27:16,677 --> 00:27:19,096
That's fine. Thank you.
265
00:27:21,515 --> 00:27:22,558
Can I...?
266
00:27:23,809 --> 00:27:24,977
Yeah.
267
00:27:37,239 --> 00:27:39,449
You sure are growing up fast?
268
00:27:40,659 --> 00:27:43,120
Why don't you come by next week,
I'll measure your feet.
269
00:27:43,203 --> 00:27:46,748
I got some shoes in the church
donation bin just collecting dust.
270
00:27:47,499 --> 00:27:49,293
- Thank you, Ma'am.
- Sure.
271
00:28:01,096 --> 00:28:02,181
Poor child.
272
00:28:03,515 --> 00:28:07,352
Her ma's gone,
and now her pa's gone too, I bet.
273
00:28:08,353 --> 00:28:09,438
What?
274
00:28:09,521 --> 00:28:12,858
We ought to be careful,
messing in folk business.
275
00:28:12,941 --> 00:28:14,776
It don't say that in the Bible.
276
00:28:14,860 --> 00:28:16,069
"Be careful."
277
00:28:17,070 --> 00:28:20,282
"And the King shall answer
and say unto them,
278
00:28:20,365 --> 00:28:24,536
verily I say unto thee,
inasmuch as ye hath done it
279
00:28:24,620 --> 00:28:28,582
unto the least of these,
my brethren, ye have done it unto me."
280
00:28:28,665 --> 00:28:29,791
All right, Mabel.
281
00:28:30,876 --> 00:28:32,294
Don't say about "be careful."
282
00:28:45,390 --> 00:28:46,892
Let's see.
283
00:28:51,313 --> 00:28:53,065
One, two, three. That's all.
284
00:29:08,580 --> 00:29:10,082
They're from Miss Mabel.
285
00:29:24,012 --> 00:29:28,141
Catherine Danielle Clark,
of Barkley County, North Carolina,
286
00:29:28,225 --> 00:29:33,397
is charged with the murder in the
first degree of Chase Lawrence Andrews,
287
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,857
formerly of Barkley Cove.
288
00:29:35,941 --> 00:29:39,611
In such cases, the State
is allowed to seek the death penalty.
289
00:29:39,695 --> 00:29:44,449
The prosecution has announced it will
do so if the defendant is found guilty.
290
00:29:45,242 --> 00:29:47,035
Guilty! We all know she's guilty.
291
00:29:47,119 --> 00:29:48,662
She's guilty.
292
00:29:50,289 --> 00:29:52,332
We will now begin jury selection.
293
00:29:52,416 --> 00:29:54,584
Will our prospective jurors
in the first two rows...
294
00:29:54,668 --> 00:29:59,131
There is an option.
It's what's called a plea bargain.
295
00:30:00,048 --> 00:30:03,552
And it means that
if you are willing to say
296
00:30:03,635 --> 00:30:08,598
that you did go to the tower that night
and met Chase Andrews there
297
00:30:09,308 --> 00:30:13,979
and you had a disagreement,
and in a horrible accident
298
00:30:14,062 --> 00:30:16,148
he stepped backwards through the grate.
299
00:30:16,231 --> 00:30:20,110
You'd get 10 years,
but you'd be out in six.
300
00:30:20,193 --> 00:30:21,236
No.
301
00:30:22,029 --> 00:30:24,114
If we lose, we lose big.
302
00:30:24,197 --> 00:30:27,034
It's life in prison, or the other.
303
00:30:27,117 --> 00:30:30,662
Mr. Milton, I won't say anything
that implies guilt.
304
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:33,874
I will not go to prison.
305
00:30:33,957 --> 00:30:35,208
Please call me Tom.
306
00:30:35,292 --> 00:30:37,586
And promise me
that you will think about this.
307
00:30:37,669 --> 00:30:38,795
I have to get out of here.
308
00:30:40,464 --> 00:30:41,340
One way...
309
00:30:42,591 --> 00:30:43,425
or the other.
310
00:30:43,508 --> 00:30:46,970
Between midnight and 2 a.m.
on October 30th...
311
00:30:48,388 --> 00:30:54,186
the defendant lured Chase Andrews
to the tower and pushed him to his death.
312
00:30:54,269 --> 00:30:56,563
She then covered up her tracks
and fingerprints.
313
00:30:56,646 --> 00:30:59,900
Now, you're gonna hear she had the time,
she had the motivation,
314
00:30:59,983 --> 00:31:01,651
but most importantly...
315
00:31:04,071 --> 00:31:08,241
she has the weakness of character
to murder Chase Andrews.
316
00:31:13,914 --> 00:31:19,252
Ladies and gentlemen, the State
is going to throw a lot of words at you
317
00:31:19,336 --> 00:31:22,381
about Miss Catherine Danielle Clark.
318
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:28,512
But I am asking you to look at the
evidence that the State will be offering
319
00:31:28,595 --> 00:31:30,555
to back up those words.
320
00:31:31,306 --> 00:31:33,767
You'll find that there is none.
321
00:31:33,850 --> 00:31:36,937
Furthermore, you are going to hear
that there's a good chance
322
00:31:37,020 --> 00:31:42,567
no one murdered Chase Andrews
and that the defendant, Miss Clark,
323
00:31:42,651 --> 00:31:47,906
finds herself here because it is easier
to lay blame on an outsider
324
00:31:47,989 --> 00:31:51,284
than it is to rely on facts.
325
00:31:51,368 --> 00:31:57,374
And although she was born and grew up
not five miles from this courtroom,
326
00:31:58,333 --> 00:32:00,210
Miss Clark is an outsider.
327
00:34:00,372 --> 00:34:01,206
Hi.
328
00:34:01,748 --> 00:34:03,959
It's me. Tate.
329
00:34:26,648 --> 00:34:27,816
Tundra swan.
330
00:34:29,317 --> 00:34:32,737
- How do you know birds?
- My ma liked birds.
331
00:34:36,741 --> 00:34:37,951
I can't read your note.
332
00:34:42,872 --> 00:34:47,085
All I said was I'd seen you
a couple times when I was out fishing,
333
00:34:47,168 --> 00:34:51,089
and it got me thinking that maybe
you could use some seeds and a spark plug.
334
00:34:51,172 --> 00:34:54,718
I had extra.
Thought it might save you a trip to town.
335
00:34:55,635 --> 00:34:59,139
And I don't know,
I figured you'd like the feathers.
336
00:35:03,101 --> 00:35:04,352
All right, then.
337
00:35:09,065 --> 00:35:10,233
All right, then.
338
00:35:15,113 --> 00:35:17,198
Well, I better be going, so...
339
00:35:24,914 --> 00:35:27,000
I could teach you to read.
340
00:35:30,795 --> 00:35:33,214
I thought you may as well
learn to write at the same time.
341
00:35:33,298 --> 00:35:34,924
Yeah.
342
00:35:35,008 --> 00:35:37,677
Good. Okay, so we start with A.
343
00:35:38,887 --> 00:35:40,847
Just go ahead
and draw that shape right there.
344
00:35:52,317 --> 00:35:53,276
Don't tell me.
345
00:35:54,152 --> 00:35:55,320
You're getting there.
346
00:35:55,403 --> 00:35:58,406
- Don't help me.
- Sure. I got all day.
347
00:35:58,490 --> 00:36:02,661
"There are some who can live
348
00:36:03,453 --> 00:36:07,582
without wild things, comma,
349
00:36:08,208 --> 00:36:10,960
and some who cannot."
350
00:36:13,797 --> 00:36:16,174
That's what I'm talking about, Kya.
351
00:36:17,133 --> 00:36:19,969
And there will never be a time again
when you can't read, ever.
352
00:36:20,053 --> 00:36:22,722
I didn't know words could hold so much.
353
00:36:22,806 --> 00:36:24,557
Not all words hold that much.
354
00:36:29,437 --> 00:36:31,231
We could read at my house sometime.
355
00:37:02,387 --> 00:37:04,264
We went through the whole library.
356
00:37:04,764 --> 00:37:07,600
Three times a week, summer into fall.
357
00:37:10,687 --> 00:37:13,064
Read how plants and animals
change over time
358
00:37:13,148 --> 00:37:15,066
to adjust to the ever-shifting earth.
359
00:37:18,111 --> 00:37:22,115
How birds sing mostly at dawn
because the cool, moist air of morning
360
00:37:22,198 --> 00:37:24,784
carries their songs
and their meanings much farther.
361
00:37:28,079 --> 00:37:32,625
How some cells divide
and specialize into lungs or hearts
362
00:37:33,501 --> 00:37:36,212
while others remain uncommitted
as stem cells
363
00:37:36,296 --> 00:37:37,797
in case they're needed later.
364
00:37:39,674 --> 00:37:41,801
Within all the worlds of biology...
365
00:37:43,178 --> 00:37:47,015
I searched for an explanation of why
a mother would leave her offspring.
366
00:37:51,770 --> 00:37:54,189
"Mr. Jackson Henry Clark
367
00:37:54,272 --> 00:37:59,986
married Miss Julienne
Maria Jacques, June 12, 1933."
368
00:38:01,237 --> 00:38:04,365
That means these are my parents.
369
00:38:05,283 --> 00:38:08,912
"Master Jeremy Andrew Clark, January 2."
370
00:38:08,995 --> 00:38:10,121
That's Jodie.
371
00:38:10,955 --> 00:38:16,461
"Master Napier Murphy Clark,
Miss Mary Helen Clark,
372
00:38:16,544 --> 00:38:18,963
Miss Catherine Danielle Clark."
373
00:38:27,055 --> 00:38:28,139
I miss them.
374
00:38:31,267 --> 00:38:32,101
I had...
375
00:38:34,771 --> 00:38:36,272
I had forgot how much...
376
00:38:37,857 --> 00:38:39,400
I feel them not here.
377
00:38:43,029 --> 00:38:43,863
But...
378
00:38:45,114 --> 00:38:47,367
I feel them not here right now.
379
00:38:47,450 --> 00:38:48,576
I mean...
380
00:38:51,663 --> 00:38:53,748
Sometimes I feel so invisible...
381
00:38:55,458 --> 00:38:57,126
I wonder if I'm here at all.
382
00:38:58,461 --> 00:38:59,295
You are.
383
00:39:11,307 --> 00:39:13,601
- Sorry I'm late.
- Come on. Give me a hand.
384
00:39:15,061 --> 00:39:17,313
Son, you know I don't listen to idle talk.
385
00:39:18,523 --> 00:39:21,234
But there is a regular riptide
of gossip going around
386
00:39:21,317 --> 00:39:23,319
you got something
going on with that Marsh Girl.
387
00:39:25,113 --> 00:39:26,823
Hey, you know you can tell me anything.
388
00:39:27,657 --> 00:39:29,617
- She your girlfriend?
- She's my friend.
389
00:39:29,701 --> 00:39:32,871
I bring her books 'cause people are
so nasty to her, she can't go to school.
390
00:39:34,038 --> 00:39:35,290
She doesn't have any family.
391
00:39:37,083 --> 00:39:41,212
Hey. Come on. There's no need to be huffy.
392
00:39:42,255 --> 00:39:45,174
It's my job to say all the things
that we don't like to talk about,
393
00:39:45,258 --> 00:39:48,761
and I can't give you a lot of things
those other dads can give their sons.
394
00:39:48,845 --> 00:39:50,054
So I'm asking you.
395
00:39:50,972 --> 00:39:52,056
Just be careful.
396
00:39:53,057 --> 00:39:56,436
Everything you've worked so hard for,
your dreams of going to Chapel Hill...
397
00:39:57,312 --> 00:39:58,980
Life can change in a second.
398
00:40:01,524 --> 00:40:02,942
You understand that?
399
00:40:03,026 --> 00:40:04,319
Yeah.
400
00:40:04,402 --> 00:40:07,947
Now turn up my music, would you? Come on.
401
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,286
It's Puccini, in case you're wondering.
402
00:40:33,306 --> 00:40:37,810
A young girl living on her own
like that looks immoral, don't you think?
403
00:40:37,894 --> 00:40:40,813
No, sir. I don't. Think, that is.
404
00:40:40,897 --> 00:40:43,524
At least not enough. Just ask my wife.
405
00:40:45,568 --> 00:40:49,447
There are some fine group homes
that would help keep a young woman
406
00:40:49,530 --> 00:40:50,531
out of trouble.
407
00:40:52,533 --> 00:40:54,786
They say she comes in here
from time to time.
408
00:40:54,869 --> 00:40:57,497
I do see her from time to time.
409
00:40:58,081 --> 00:41:00,500
She's not alone.
She's got her father with her.
410
00:41:00,583 --> 00:41:03,586
Well, I've never seen anybody home
all the times I've been by.
411
00:41:04,504 --> 00:41:06,422
When does she usually come around?
412
00:41:06,506 --> 00:41:09,133
I never know
just when she'll boat in here.
413
00:41:09,759 --> 00:41:12,470
Have her call me next time she comes in.
414
00:41:15,932 --> 00:41:19,018
You don't have any reason
to lie to me, do you, boy?
415
00:41:19,102 --> 00:41:20,979
No reason at all, sir.
416
00:41:37,620 --> 00:41:40,748
- We gotta meet somewhere else.
- Hi, Kya. Good to see you too.
417
00:41:40,832 --> 00:41:42,625
Social Services are looking for me again.
418
00:41:42,709 --> 00:41:44,919
They're gonna pull me in,
put me in some group home.
419
00:41:45,003 --> 00:41:47,005
It's polite to greet people
when you see them.
420
00:41:53,428 --> 00:41:56,764
You know, a group home
might not be the worst thing.
421
00:41:57,557 --> 00:42:00,518
What? No, no. You'd have someone
cooking you warm meals.
422
00:42:00,601 --> 00:42:02,687
- Real bed.
- I got a real bed.
423
00:42:03,563 --> 00:42:06,941
'Sides, I'd never leave the marsh
to go live with a bunch of strangers.
424
00:42:07,066 --> 00:42:09,569
It's "besides," not "'sides."
425
00:42:10,236 --> 00:42:12,196
And you can't live alone
in the marsh forever.
426
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:13,239
Watch me.
427
00:42:14,657 --> 00:42:15,783
All right.
428
00:42:31,799 --> 00:42:32,925
Tate.
429
00:42:34,177 --> 00:42:35,344
I...
430
00:42:37,805 --> 00:42:40,933
I appreciate you teaching me to read
431
00:42:41,517 --> 00:42:43,770
and all the things you gave me.
432
00:42:44,812 --> 00:42:46,314
But why do you do it?
433
00:42:46,939 --> 00:42:49,442
Don't you have a girlfriend or something?
434
00:42:50,610 --> 00:42:51,778
Sometimes I do.
435
00:42:52,612 --> 00:42:53,571
Sometimes?
436
00:42:54,781 --> 00:42:57,408
I mean, I've had one.
437
00:42:59,410 --> 00:43:00,369
But not now...
438
00:43:01,621 --> 00:43:03,456
I don't, so...
439
00:43:08,795 --> 00:43:09,879
All right.
440
00:43:09,962 --> 00:43:10,880
I...
441
00:43:12,548 --> 00:43:15,134
I saw you on your pa's boat the other day.
442
00:43:17,345 --> 00:43:18,596
He seems real nice, your dad.
443
00:43:18,679 --> 00:43:20,640
Yeah. Yeah, he is.
444
00:43:21,224 --> 00:43:23,601
You never talk about your ma.
445
00:43:25,645 --> 00:43:26,729
What's she like?
446
00:43:33,986 --> 00:43:35,613
You don't have to say nothing.
447
00:43:36,656 --> 00:43:40,701
My mother and little sister died
in a car wreck over in Asheville.
448
00:43:44,205 --> 00:43:46,415
My little sister's name was Carianne.
449
00:43:49,544 --> 00:43:50,795
It was...
450
00:43:56,300 --> 00:43:57,468
What, Tate?
451
00:43:58,970 --> 00:44:00,638
You can say anything to me.
452
00:44:06,602 --> 00:44:09,689
I think they went to Asheville
to buy me my birthday present.
453
00:44:11,482 --> 00:44:14,026
There was this bike I wanted,
454
00:44:14,610 --> 00:44:16,779
and Western Auto didn't carry it...
455
00:44:19,115 --> 00:44:21,868
so I think they went into Asheville
to get that bike for me.
456
00:44:24,745 --> 00:44:27,165
And I don't even remember
what kind of bike it was.
457
00:44:31,502 --> 00:44:32,962
It wasn't your fault.
458
00:44:48,394 --> 00:44:49,896
My gosh!
459
00:45:13,252 --> 00:45:14,754
Am I your girlfriend now?
460
00:45:14,837 --> 00:45:16,005
Do you wanna be?
461
00:45:17,298 --> 00:45:18,341
I know feathers.
462
00:45:20,176 --> 00:45:22,345
Bet the other girls don't know feathers.
463
00:45:24,388 --> 00:45:25,473
All right, then.
464
00:45:26,766 --> 00:45:27,725
All right, then.
465
00:46:40,506 --> 00:46:43,217
- I've never been out this way.
- It's worth the trip.
466
00:46:43,759 --> 00:46:44,593
You'll see.
467
00:46:46,095 --> 00:46:47,096
Happy birthday, Kya.
468
00:46:50,516 --> 00:46:51,976
How'd you know it was my birthday?
469
00:46:52,059 --> 00:46:53,644
I read it in your Bible.
470
00:46:56,314 --> 00:46:58,065
Did you know it was your birthday?
471
00:46:59,358 --> 00:47:00,693
Don't have a calendar.
472
00:47:04,447 --> 00:47:06,407
Not my name.
473
00:47:06,490 --> 00:47:07,575
Don't cut my name.
474
00:47:07,658 --> 00:47:08,784
Yes, ma'am.
475
00:47:21,630 --> 00:47:22,631
Pretty good?
476
00:47:25,134 --> 00:47:26,218
What's that?
477
00:47:27,386 --> 00:47:28,679
Here they come.
478
00:47:40,983 --> 00:47:42,318
Snow geese.
479
00:48:14,892 --> 00:48:16,060
Kya.
480
00:48:17,228 --> 00:48:18,104
Kya, look at me.
481
00:49:06,986 --> 00:49:08,070
Kya.
482
00:49:09,196 --> 00:49:11,323
Kya, I'm sorry.
483
00:49:12,032 --> 00:49:12,908
I'm sorry.
484
00:49:14,702 --> 00:49:15,619
Jeez.
485
00:49:18,372 --> 00:49:20,499
No, Tate, I want to.
486
00:49:21,917 --> 00:49:22,751
Why not?
487
00:49:24,295 --> 00:49:25,212
Because I...
488
00:49:27,298 --> 00:49:28,966
I care about you too much.
489
00:49:29,967 --> 00:49:35,764
Look, Kya. I want you more than anything,
but I can't be damaged as easily.
490
00:49:35,848 --> 00:49:38,517
It's more dangerous for you.
You understand?
491
00:49:51,780 --> 00:49:53,782
Fall gave way to winter.
492
00:49:54,909 --> 00:49:56,076
Winter to spring.
493
00:49:57,411 --> 00:50:00,247
The only constant in nature is change.
494
00:50:00,331 --> 00:50:01,499
Dad, I got in!
495
00:50:24,188 --> 00:50:25,356
Why are you quiet?
496
00:50:27,399 --> 00:50:29,109
You know I'm going away soon.
497
00:50:30,027 --> 00:50:30,945
To college.
498
00:50:33,405 --> 00:50:34,740
You talked about it.
499
00:50:36,742 --> 00:50:37,660
When?
500
00:50:38,869 --> 00:50:40,287
Not right away.
501
00:50:43,123 --> 00:50:44,250
Soon.
502
00:50:45,501 --> 00:50:47,253
I got a job at the biology lab.
503
00:50:48,212 --> 00:50:49,838
Starts next week, so...
504
00:51:01,642 --> 00:51:02,601
Stay here.
505
00:51:03,561 --> 00:51:04,770
And do what?
506
00:51:08,399 --> 00:51:10,734
No, look. I just mean
there's no work for me here.
507
00:51:10,818 --> 00:51:13,612
What am I gonna do?
I don't want to be a shrimper like my dad.
508
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:16,282
I'm going to get a degree
and be something, Kya.
509
00:51:16,365 --> 00:51:18,701
- So could you.
- What do you want me to be?
510
00:51:20,202 --> 00:51:22,705
- That's not what I meant.
- You're never gonna come back.
511
00:51:22,788 --> 00:51:25,833
Yes, I will. I won't leave you, Kya.
I promise.
512
00:51:25,916 --> 00:51:27,251
I'm gonna come back to you.
513
00:51:28,294 --> 00:51:30,087
Kya! Kya, stop!
514
00:51:32,131 --> 00:51:34,550
You can't run away from every whipstitch!
515
00:51:55,362 --> 00:51:57,906
- One more night.
- One more night.
516
00:52:23,182 --> 00:52:24,099
What's this?
517
00:52:26,310 --> 00:52:28,604
It's a list of publishers.
518
00:52:29,605 --> 00:52:31,148
For all your drawings and notes.
519
00:52:31,231 --> 00:52:33,442
There's nothing like them out there, Kya.
520
00:52:33,859 --> 00:52:35,653
There's enough for a book.
521
00:52:35,736 --> 00:52:37,112
Lots of books.
522
00:52:38,822 --> 00:52:40,991
And, you know,
you wouldn't have to leave home.
523
00:52:41,742 --> 00:52:44,161
You could just mail your samples
into a publisher.
524
00:52:44,870 --> 00:52:46,330
You know, bring some money in.
525
00:52:47,831 --> 00:52:50,042
You know, probably not a huge amount...
526
00:52:51,251 --> 00:52:54,380
but maybe you wouldn't have to
dig mussels the rest of your life.
527
00:52:56,090 --> 00:52:57,257
Just give it a try, Kya.
528
00:52:59,593 --> 00:53:00,803
Come on. What can it hurt?
529
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:06,433
You're gonna forget about me.
530
00:53:08,811 --> 00:53:10,938
When you get busy
with all that college stuff,
531
00:53:11,522 --> 00:53:12,815
all those pretty girls.
532
00:53:12,898 --> 00:53:14,692
I could never forget you, Kya.
533
00:53:15,567 --> 00:53:16,610
Ever.
534
00:53:18,987 --> 00:53:22,783
I'll be home in a month. I promise.
For the Fourth of July. Okay?
535
00:53:24,702 --> 00:53:26,120
I'll be back before you know it.
536
00:53:26,704 --> 00:53:29,498
We'll meet on your beach
and watch fireworks together.
537
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:32,167
Just write those publishers, all right?
538
00:53:53,731 --> 00:53:55,023
Goodbye, Kya.
539
00:53:55,858 --> 00:53:56,942
Goodbye, Tate.
540
00:54:25,304 --> 00:54:27,473
Seabirds of the Eastern Seaboard.
541
00:54:28,766 --> 00:54:30,309
Starring you, Big Red.
542
00:56:31,722 --> 00:56:32,723
No.
543
00:56:37,227 --> 00:56:38,395
No.
544
00:56:40,105 --> 00:56:41,273
No, Tate.
545
00:56:44,985 --> 00:56:46,069
No, no.
546
00:56:46,570 --> 00:56:47,738
No.
547
00:56:49,865 --> 00:56:50,782
No.
548
00:56:53,535 --> 00:56:54,453
No.
549
00:56:55,412 --> 00:56:58,081
No, no, no.
550
00:57:12,596 --> 00:57:15,891
Tate and life and love
had been the same thing.
551
00:57:17,225 --> 00:57:18,518
They were all gone.
552
00:57:22,064 --> 00:57:23,231
And then...
553
00:57:45,712 --> 00:57:49,633
Whenever I stumbled, the marsh caught me.
554
00:57:57,182 --> 00:57:58,850
At some unclaimed moment,
555
00:57:58,934 --> 00:58:01,395
at last, the heart pain seeped away,
556
00:58:01,478 --> 00:58:03,438
like water into sand.
557
00:58:03,522 --> 00:58:05,482
Still there, but deep.
558
00:58:07,609 --> 00:58:11,154
There were no footprints around the body
or on the fire tower.
559
00:58:11,238 --> 00:58:13,031
And no fresh fingerprints either.
560
00:58:13,115 --> 00:58:15,993
Not even on the grate,
which somebody had to open.
561
00:58:16,076 --> 00:58:18,537
All this indicated that someone
had destroyed evidence.
562
00:58:18,620 --> 00:58:19,955
No more questions.
563
00:58:21,289 --> 00:58:22,666
Your witness.
564
00:58:29,423 --> 00:58:33,051
Sheriff, I'm handing you the tide table
565
00:58:33,135 --> 00:58:37,889
for the night of October 29
and the morning of October 30.
566
00:58:37,973 --> 00:58:43,270
Now, this shows here
that low tide was around midnight.
567
00:58:43,770 --> 00:58:47,774
So at the time Chase Andrews
arrived at the tower
568
00:58:47,858 --> 00:58:51,778
and walked to the steps, he would have
made tracks in the wet mud.
569
00:58:51,862 --> 00:58:57,117
And then as the groundwater rose,
those tracks would have been wiped out.
570
00:58:57,200 --> 00:59:00,037
- Do you agree that this is possible?
- Well...
571
00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:03,665
And then you'd agree
that if he had any friends with him,
572
00:59:03,749 --> 00:59:06,710
their footprints
would be washed away as well.
573
00:59:06,793 --> 00:59:09,087
Under these circumstances,
574
00:59:09,171 --> 00:59:15,177
the absence of footprints in
and of itself does not suggest a crime.
575
00:59:15,844 --> 00:59:17,095
Correct?
576
00:59:19,931 --> 00:59:20,807
Sheriff?
577
00:59:23,477 --> 00:59:28,315
The absence of footprints does not,
by itself, prove there was a crime.
578
00:59:28,398 --> 00:59:31,443
You also testified
that there were no fingerprints
579
00:59:31,526 --> 00:59:35,697
found anywhere in the fire tower,
including on the open grate.
580
00:59:36,448 --> 00:59:41,661
So this led you to conclude
that someone must have opened the grate
581
00:59:41,745 --> 00:59:44,164
and wiped away
their fingerprints afterwards.
582
00:59:44,247 --> 00:59:45,415
Correct.
583
00:59:46,333 --> 00:59:50,962
Now, in fact, isn't it true
that these grates were left open
584
00:59:51,046 --> 00:59:53,757
so often and considered so dangerous
585
00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:56,468
that your office submitted
a written request
586
00:59:56,551 --> 00:59:58,178
to the U.S. Forest Service
587
00:59:58,261 --> 01:00:03,642
to remedy the situation
on July 18 of last year?
588
01:00:06,311 --> 01:00:08,939
This is a copy of that request.
589
01:00:09,981 --> 01:00:12,234
Who wrote this, sheriff?
590
01:00:13,819 --> 01:00:14,861
I did it myself.
591
01:00:14,945 --> 01:00:18,657
Would you read to the court
the last sentence of this document
592
01:00:18,740 --> 01:00:20,951
that you sent to the Forest Service?
593
01:00:21,451 --> 01:00:23,078
Just the last sentence.
594
01:00:23,787 --> 01:00:26,581
"I must repeat,
these grates are very dangerous,
595
01:00:26,665 --> 01:00:28,542
and if action is not taken...
596
01:00:31,586 --> 01:00:35,215
if action is not taken,
a serious injury or death will occur."
597
01:00:37,509 --> 01:00:39,052
Thank you, sheriff.
598
01:01:26,183 --> 01:01:28,602
Somebody's been taking pictures
round my house.
599
01:01:28,685 --> 01:01:30,520
What do you think they want?
600
01:01:31,271 --> 01:01:32,272
Developers.
601
01:01:33,481 --> 01:01:36,276
They've been all up and down
the marsh last few weeks,
602
01:01:36,359 --> 01:01:39,196
wanting to drain the "murky swamp."
Build hotels.
603
01:01:39,279 --> 01:01:40,655
Yeah, I saw them last year.
604
01:01:41,364 --> 01:01:44,201
Cutting oak and digging channels
down the way.
605
01:01:45,076 --> 01:01:45,952
They want my house?
606
01:01:46,036 --> 01:01:47,495
Maybe not the house,
607
01:01:47,579 --> 01:01:49,873
but I bet they offer you
a heap of money for that land.
608
01:01:49,956 --> 01:01:50,790
Jumpin'!
609
01:01:50,874 --> 01:01:53,293
There ain't nothing wrong
with some money going to Kya.
610
01:01:56,004 --> 01:01:59,216
You do own that land, don't you?
You own that house?
611
01:02:02,177 --> 01:02:03,470
Pa said so.
612
01:02:03,553 --> 01:02:05,388
Well, you're gonna need some proof.
613
01:02:06,097 --> 01:02:07,933
A deed, title.
614
01:02:12,437 --> 01:02:13,438
Hey.
615
01:02:13,521 --> 01:02:16,191
Sorry to startle you.
Can I carry that for ya?
616
01:02:16,983 --> 01:02:19,945
- I got it.
- Please. Let me get it.
617
01:02:21,404 --> 01:02:23,114
I'm Chase Andrews.
618
01:02:24,366 --> 01:02:25,825
Your name's Kya, right?
619
01:02:27,494 --> 01:02:31,373
Yeah. Yeah. It's a nice name.
I like it. It's different but nice.
620
01:02:34,251 --> 01:02:35,335
This is yours right here.
621
01:02:37,337 --> 01:02:38,463
There we go.
622
01:02:41,258 --> 01:02:44,094
You wanna go for a picnic
in my boat this Sunday?
623
01:02:50,183 --> 01:02:51,309
Okay.
624
01:02:51,393 --> 01:02:53,979
I'll pick you up at noon
from Point Beach. Does that work?
625
01:02:55,188 --> 01:02:57,274
All right. Well, I'll see ya, Kya.
626
01:03:08,868 --> 01:03:09,995
Well, here we are.
627
01:03:10,078 --> 01:03:14,291
Mr. Napier Clark,
looks like, bought it in 1897.
628
01:03:14,874 --> 01:03:17,168
Yeah, that's my grandpa.
629
01:03:18,003 --> 01:03:19,087
Yes, ma'am.
630
01:03:19,796 --> 01:03:24,801
It's never been sold, so, yes sirree,
I reckon it belongs to you.
631
01:03:25,427 --> 01:03:29,097
Looks like you gotta pay some back taxes
if you wanna keep it, Miss Clark.
632
01:03:29,681 --> 01:03:31,641
In fact, ma'am, the way the law reads,
633
01:03:32,100 --> 01:03:35,729
whoever comes along and
pays those back taxes owns the land,
634
01:03:35,812 --> 01:03:37,522
even if they don't got no deed.
635
01:03:38,481 --> 01:03:39,607
Well, how much?
636
01:03:39,691 --> 01:03:41,484
Looks like about...
637
01:03:46,031 --> 01:03:47,907
Eight hundred dollars total.
638
01:04:05,258 --> 01:04:06,760
Five years.
639
01:04:08,053 --> 01:04:11,348
It had been five years
since Tate showed me this path.
640
01:04:12,140 --> 01:04:13,683
Dear Sir or Madam,
641
01:04:14,768 --> 01:04:19,647
I am sending you the following pages
on the shells of the Carolina marsh
642
01:04:20,065 --> 01:04:21,608
for your consideration.
643
01:04:24,486 --> 01:04:27,364
Five years for my heart
to open its shell again.
644
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:41,336
How's it feel to bask
in the presence of musical genius?
645
01:04:48,510 --> 01:04:49,636
Hey, look.
646
01:04:53,556 --> 01:04:55,350
That's an ornate scallop.
647
01:04:56,226 --> 01:04:57,477
Pecten ornatus.
648
01:04:57,560 --> 01:04:58,728
All right.
649
01:05:00,105 --> 01:05:03,358
- Well, it's unusual to find one here.
- Really?
650
01:05:04,025 --> 01:05:07,320
Yeah. This particular species
usually inhabits regions south of here
651
01:05:07,404 --> 01:05:10,031
'cause these waters are too cool for them.
652
01:05:12,409 --> 01:05:13,326
What?
653
01:05:14,077 --> 01:05:18,248
No, it's just, the Marsh Girl
knows the Latin name for shells
654
01:05:18,873 --> 01:05:21,501
and where they inhabit and why,
for chrissakes.
655
01:05:23,044 --> 01:05:24,129
Here. You keep it.
656
01:05:27,132 --> 01:05:28,174
Thank you.
657
01:05:33,263 --> 01:05:34,764
You're something else, ain't ya?
658
01:05:59,289 --> 01:06:01,833
I know you think I'm trash,
but I'm worth more than a picnic.
659
01:06:01,916 --> 01:06:03,209
No, Kya. Come on.
660
01:06:03,293 --> 01:06:06,254
I'm sorry. No. Hey, come on.
I've never thought you were trash.
661
01:06:07,422 --> 01:06:08,506
Please. I'm sorry.
662
01:06:08,590 --> 01:06:11,509
I understand if you wanna go,
but you can't walk from here.
663
01:06:11,593 --> 01:06:12,427
It's too far.
664
01:06:13,261 --> 01:06:14,804
Can I make it up to you?
665
01:06:17,265 --> 01:06:19,267
Please, can I make it up to you?
666
01:06:21,936 --> 01:06:24,147
I can't believe you never been up
the fire tower.
667
01:06:24,230 --> 01:06:27,484
Come here when my family's
all in my business. You know?
668
01:06:29,110 --> 01:06:31,529
It's a great way to see
the whole marsh from above.
669
01:06:36,993 --> 01:06:37,911
Here.
670
01:07:03,436 --> 01:07:04,479
What is it?
671
01:07:06,272 --> 01:07:08,525
You can tell me. I won't laugh at you.
672
01:07:09,817 --> 01:07:14,697
It's like having a friend your whole life
but you never saw their full face.
673
01:07:17,325 --> 01:07:18,243
Now I see it.
674
01:07:24,374 --> 01:07:26,376
Your house is over there, ain't it?
675
01:07:30,588 --> 01:07:31,631
Take me there.
676
01:07:34,551 --> 01:07:36,928
- It's far.
- Hey, I like far.
677
01:07:38,638 --> 01:07:41,432
I don't care what it's like,
if that's what you're worried about.
678
01:07:48,106 --> 01:07:49,482
Is this it right here?
679
01:07:52,527 --> 01:07:54,696
How long you lived out here by yourself?
680
01:07:55,363 --> 01:07:56,614
About 10 years, I think.
681
01:07:57,532 --> 01:07:58,408
Neat.
682
01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:01,744
Living out here with no parents
telling you what to do?
683
01:08:04,455 --> 01:08:06,749
There's really nothing to see inside.
684
01:08:09,877 --> 01:08:11,921
- Wow, what you got on the porch?
- What?
685
01:08:12,505 --> 01:08:14,340
Nothing.
686
01:08:25,268 --> 01:08:26,644
What is all this?
687
01:08:27,812 --> 01:08:28,855
Nothing.
688
01:08:35,403 --> 01:08:37,947
What, you writing a book or something?
689
01:08:39,365 --> 01:08:40,408
Sort of.
690
01:08:41,492 --> 01:08:44,245
These look straight out
of an encyclopedia.
691
01:08:47,165 --> 01:08:48,791
You're the real deal, ain't ya?
692
01:08:52,420 --> 01:08:53,546
Swanee.
693
01:08:54,130 --> 01:08:55,882
You got a water pump.
694
01:08:57,800 --> 01:08:59,218
I wasn't ready for guests.
695
01:08:59,302 --> 01:09:00,511
Hey, don't worry.
696
01:09:04,015 --> 01:09:07,060
Hey, there's nobody I know
who could live out here alone like this.
697
01:09:07,935 --> 01:09:10,355
I mean, most guys would be too scared.
698
01:09:13,691 --> 01:09:14,776
What do you want with me?
699
01:09:19,822 --> 01:09:23,242
Okay. Look, I'm real sorry
I came on like that.
700
01:09:23,326 --> 01:09:25,995
I wanna get to know you better. All right?
701
01:09:26,079 --> 01:09:27,580
I think you're gorgeous.
702
01:09:28,998 --> 01:09:33,044
I do. I think you're free as a dang gale
and smart as a whip.
703
01:09:34,962 --> 01:09:37,256
But I won't do anything
unless you want me to.
704
01:09:38,591 --> 01:09:39,425
How's that?
705
01:09:42,929 --> 01:09:43,888
That's fine.
706
01:09:45,556 --> 01:09:46,724
All right.
707
01:09:58,069 --> 01:10:00,780
I didn't know
exactly how I felt about Chase.
708
01:10:01,531 --> 01:10:03,282
But I was no longer lonely.
709
01:10:04,158 --> 01:10:05,451
That seemed enough.
710
01:10:07,662 --> 01:10:09,080
Is that for your book?
711
01:10:10,039 --> 01:10:11,124
Yeah.
712
01:10:11,958 --> 01:10:14,293
Anyway, who knows if anyone will read it.
713
01:10:15,086 --> 01:10:15,920
I will.
714
01:10:17,213 --> 01:10:18,881
The marsh was our secret.
715
01:10:29,100 --> 01:10:30,309
Tell me about your friends.
716
01:10:31,018 --> 01:10:32,937
I don't really have any friends.
717
01:10:35,189 --> 01:10:38,234
You always seem to be having
a good time when you're with them.
718
01:10:38,317 --> 01:10:39,277
You spying on me?
719
01:10:44,449 --> 01:10:46,033
It's funny. My dad told me once,
720
01:10:46,117 --> 01:10:49,996
he'd had something to drink
and a fight with my mom.
721
01:10:51,330 --> 01:10:54,959
He told me if my friends really knew me,
they wouldn't be my friends.
722
01:10:56,878 --> 01:11:02,341
I don't know if anyone really knows me,
is what I'm saying, I guess.
723
01:11:06,846 --> 01:11:08,681
I wonder what makes the sky blue.
724
01:11:10,641 --> 01:11:12,977
Blue and violet wavelengths from sunlight.
725
01:11:14,270 --> 01:11:19,150
They bounce off the gas particles
in the atmosphere and scatter.
726
01:11:26,616 --> 01:11:27,909
Is it okay if I...
727
01:11:29,368 --> 01:11:30,578
kiss you now?
728
01:11:42,298 --> 01:11:46,719
Let's turn to the red wool fibers found
on Chase Andrews' denim jacket
729
01:11:46,803 --> 01:11:48,137
the night he died.
730
01:11:49,013 --> 01:11:52,225
Did you compare those samples
to this red ski cap?
731
01:11:52,308 --> 01:11:53,309
Exhibit C.
732
01:11:53,392 --> 01:11:57,438
Yes. The fibers from the cap
and the jacket matched exactly.
733
01:11:57,522 --> 01:11:59,273
And where was that cap found?
734
01:11:59,357 --> 01:12:01,901
It was found in Miss Clark's residence.
735
01:12:03,611 --> 01:12:07,198
Now, about these red fibers,
is there any way, doctor,
736
01:12:07,281 --> 01:12:10,159
to determine how long the fibers
had been on the jacket?
737
01:12:10,243 --> 01:12:13,871
No. We can tell
where they came from, not when.
738
01:12:13,955 --> 01:12:16,082
And if someone wore this hat often,
739
01:12:16,165 --> 01:12:19,752
is it possible the fibers would be
in their hair and on their clothes?
740
01:12:19,836 --> 01:12:23,130
Yes. I would suppose they could.
741
01:12:23,214 --> 01:12:26,843
So would you agree
that at any time during the years
742
01:12:26,926 --> 01:12:29,554
that the defendant, Miss Clark,
knew Chase Andrews,
743
01:12:29,637 --> 01:12:33,266
the fibers of the hat could
have been transferred onto Chase's jacket?
744
01:12:33,349 --> 01:12:35,893
From what I've seen, yes.
745
01:12:35,977 --> 01:12:39,313
- At any time they met.
- Yes.
746
01:12:55,079 --> 01:12:59,250
"Dear Miss Clark,
we were fascinated by your manuscript.
747
01:12:59,750 --> 01:13:02,879
If, as you say, your materials
are already complete,
748
01:13:03,504 --> 01:13:06,757
we hope to edit
and publish in record time."
749
01:13:12,430 --> 01:13:15,850
Hey. You're looking at
the new manager of Western Auto.
750
01:13:17,935 --> 01:13:18,978
Chase.
751
01:13:20,104 --> 01:13:22,231
- That's great news.
- Come on. Let's celebrate.
752
01:13:34,368 --> 01:13:38,164
So they're gonna pay you
for those drawings?
753
01:13:38,247 --> 01:13:39,290
Yeah.
754
01:13:45,254 --> 01:13:47,340
Just don't get too full of yourself,
I guess.
755
01:13:48,549 --> 01:13:49,634
I wouldn't.
756
01:13:53,638 --> 01:13:56,015
I know people have disappointed you.
757
01:13:57,266 --> 01:13:58,809
And I'm sorry for that.
758
01:14:00,227 --> 01:14:02,355
Getting left by your own family. I mean...
759
01:14:03,648 --> 01:14:07,193
God, my family's a pain in the ass,
but I don't think I could take that.
760
01:14:07,777 --> 01:14:10,196
But I want you to know
that I'm gonna take care of you.
761
01:14:12,073 --> 01:14:13,324
Now I've been promoted,
762
01:14:13,407 --> 01:14:15,451
I can get you a nice house
when we're married.
763
01:14:15,534 --> 01:14:17,119
- "Married"?
- Yeah.
764
01:14:17,662 --> 01:14:20,915
A nice two-story on the beach
with a wraparound veranda.
765
01:14:22,166 --> 01:14:23,250
Yeah.
766
01:14:26,671 --> 01:14:28,297
What about your parents?
767
01:14:28,381 --> 01:14:29,840
Have you told them about me?
768
01:14:30,549 --> 01:14:32,301
What you gotta understand about my folks
769
01:14:32,385 --> 01:14:35,388
is that if I say you're my choice,
that'd be that.
770
01:14:35,972 --> 01:14:38,391
They'll fall in love with you
when they get to know ya.
771
01:14:42,853 --> 01:14:43,813
Come here.
772
01:14:50,194 --> 01:14:54,782
By the way, I have to drive over
to Asheville in a few days
773
01:14:54,865 --> 01:14:56,867
to buy goods for my dad's store.
774
01:14:56,951 --> 01:14:58,786
I was thinking you could come.
775
01:14:59,578 --> 01:15:01,330
Celebrate your book and all.
776
01:15:02,873 --> 01:15:04,834
- There'd be lots of people.
- It doesn't matter.
777
01:15:04,917 --> 01:15:06,711
You'd be with me. I know everything.
778
01:15:07,503 --> 01:15:10,256
Hell, you don't have to talk to one soul
if you don't want to.
779
01:15:11,132 --> 01:15:14,468
Come on. If we're gonna get married,
you need to get out in the world a bit.
780
01:15:15,636 --> 01:15:17,638
Spread those long wings of yours.
781
01:15:20,057 --> 01:15:21,684
Come on. It'll be fun.
782
01:15:29,900 --> 01:15:33,612
It's a two-day job,
so we'll stay the night.
783
01:15:37,992 --> 01:15:40,327
hold my head up high
784
01:15:42,621 --> 01:15:43,748
Incredible?
785
01:16:03,893 --> 01:16:06,395
Hey. It's an adventure. Come on.
786
01:17:29,228 --> 01:17:33,732
It'll feel better for you later,
the more you do it.
787
01:17:42,449 --> 01:17:44,160
Hey, I never wanna lose you.
788
01:17:48,164 --> 01:17:50,082
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
789
01:17:51,292 --> 01:17:52,751
I think about it a lot.
790
01:17:54,295 --> 01:17:56,589
Sneaking out at night to come see you.
791
01:17:58,632 --> 01:17:59,550
My Marsh Girl.
792
01:18:03,554 --> 01:18:05,639
Nobody knows
793
01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:08,392
Nobody sees
794
01:18:09,226 --> 01:18:11,770
Nobody knows but me
795
01:18:15,441 --> 01:18:19,236
Hey, you don't have to prove yourself
to anyone. You understand?
796
01:18:20,779 --> 01:18:22,406
You have me, and I love you.
797
01:18:26,243 --> 01:18:27,578
I made you something.
798
01:18:42,426 --> 01:18:44,220
It was a single shell,
799
01:18:44,303 --> 01:18:47,932
hung on a piece of rawhide,
tied in a tight knot, and it was missing.
800
01:18:48,015 --> 01:18:52,353
So to be clear, what you're saying
is that the shell necklace
801
01:18:52,436 --> 01:18:56,273
that Chase wore every day
was missing from these items
802
01:18:56,357 --> 01:19:00,486
that law enforcement recovered
from his body the day that he was found.
803
01:19:00,986 --> 01:19:02,238
Is that correct?
804
01:19:02,321 --> 01:19:04,698
- I think it's important.
- Yes.
805
01:19:05,449 --> 01:19:08,702
He had that necklace on
when he had dinner with us that night.
806
01:19:09,995 --> 01:19:12,790
And it was gone from his body.
807
01:19:14,208 --> 01:19:16,210
And what I'm saying is
he never took it off.
808
01:19:16,710 --> 01:19:18,754
Whoever killed him took it.
809
01:19:18,837 --> 01:19:21,966
Objection, Your Honor. It's speculation.
810
01:19:22,049 --> 01:19:23,175
Sustained.
811
01:19:23,676 --> 01:19:25,177
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
812
01:19:25,261 --> 01:19:29,056
you will disregard
that last remark by Mrs. Andrews.
813
01:19:29,139 --> 01:19:33,602
Mrs. Andrews, where did Chase
get this necklace?
814
01:19:33,686 --> 01:19:37,398
It's from that Marsh Girl. Miss Clark.
815
01:19:38,065 --> 01:19:40,943
I didn't even know her name
or if she even had one.
816
01:19:42,403 --> 01:19:43,946
I can't see why Chase...
817
01:19:45,072 --> 01:19:46,448
But what I'm saying is,
818
01:19:47,032 --> 01:19:51,203
she's the only one who'd have
any interest in taking the thing.
819
01:19:51,287 --> 01:19:53,038
Mrs. Andrews...
820
01:19:55,082 --> 01:19:58,002
were Chase and Miss Clark
romantically involved?
821
01:19:58,085 --> 01:20:01,046
You could say.
I saw him sneaking out at night.
822
01:20:01,714 --> 01:20:04,967
When I finally asked him
where he was going, he told me the truth.
823
01:20:06,176 --> 01:20:08,971
I thought: What would people say?
824
01:20:10,347 --> 01:20:14,268
I was a silly woman to be worried
about that next to...
825
01:20:19,606 --> 01:20:23,193
But he told me he broke it off with her.
826
01:20:24,069 --> 01:20:27,740
She knew she couldn't have him anymore,
so she killed him
827
01:20:27,823 --> 01:20:30,284
- and took back her ugly necklace!
- Objection, Your Honor.
828
01:20:33,996 --> 01:20:36,540
- Sustained.
- No further questions, Your Honor.
829
01:20:40,961 --> 01:20:44,298
Mrs. Andrews, you have
my deepest sympathy for your loss.
830
01:20:44,923 --> 01:20:47,009
With all due respect,
831
01:20:47,092 --> 01:20:51,889
you are aware that Miss Clark's house
was thoroughly searched.
832
01:20:52,765 --> 01:20:56,393
And that the police
did not find the necklace there.
833
01:20:56,477 --> 01:20:58,896
- Did they?
- No.
834
01:21:21,168 --> 01:21:22,211
Hey.
835
01:21:23,087 --> 01:21:24,129
I got it.
836
01:21:25,297 --> 01:21:27,966
- Almost got you.
- Almost knocked me out.
837
01:21:28,050 --> 01:21:29,468
Just trying to show off.
838
01:21:31,762 --> 01:21:34,348
What's that Marsh Girl like in bed, man?
Is she an animal?
839
01:21:34,431 --> 01:21:37,142
Wild as a bobcat and worth
every bit of the gas money.
840
01:21:37,684 --> 01:21:39,103
Tell me her eyes glow.
841
01:21:39,561 --> 01:21:42,773
- Only for me and only when I make them.
- Hey, don't talk about her like that.
842
01:21:43,857 --> 01:21:46,735
- What's that?
- I said don't talk about her like that.
843
01:21:46,819 --> 01:21:48,779
The college boy.
844
01:21:50,739 --> 01:21:52,908
He taught the Marsh Girl her ABCs.
845
01:21:54,034 --> 01:21:55,202
You're a waste of her time.
846
01:21:57,204 --> 01:21:59,373
Go ahead, college boy. What you gonna do?
847
01:21:59,456 --> 01:22:02,709
- Come on, you're tough, right?
- Come on, let's do something.
848
01:22:02,793 --> 01:22:06,088
- You wanna hit me?
- Hey, y'all settle down now.
849
01:22:06,171 --> 01:22:07,464
That's enough.
850
01:22:09,258 --> 01:22:11,427
Settle down before someone get hurt.
851
01:22:12,428 --> 01:22:13,720
There's better ways than this.
852
01:22:34,032 --> 01:22:35,117
Hey, Kya.
853
01:22:38,078 --> 01:22:39,037
Hey, what the hell?
854
01:22:39,913 --> 01:22:41,999
Wait! Kya, wait! Please.
855
01:22:42,082 --> 01:22:43,167
Look, I just wanna talk.
856
01:22:43,250 --> 01:22:45,127
Get out of my lagoon, you dirty creep!
857
01:22:45,210 --> 01:22:47,045
Kya, please! I just need to talk to you!
858
01:22:47,129 --> 01:22:48,755
I don't care what you want!
859
01:22:49,465 --> 01:22:52,050
I never wanna see you again. Ever.
860
01:22:52,134 --> 01:22:54,052
Kya, I need to talk to you
about Chase, okay?
861
01:22:54,136 --> 01:22:56,889
- About Chase?
- He's not good enough for you.
862
01:22:58,557 --> 01:23:01,560
You're the one who left me.
863
01:23:03,187 --> 01:23:06,940
Who didn't come back when you promised.
Who never came back.
864
01:23:09,485 --> 01:23:13,697
You didn't even write to explain or
even to say if you were alive or dead.
865
01:23:13,780 --> 01:23:14,990
You just disappeared.
866
01:23:15,073 --> 01:23:18,410
I know. And I'm so sorry, Kya,
you have no idea.
867
01:23:18,494 --> 01:23:21,914
You weren't man enough to face me.
868
01:23:23,165 --> 01:23:24,291
You're right, Kya.
869
01:23:25,584 --> 01:23:27,211
Everything you say is true.
870
01:23:28,086 --> 01:23:30,464
Leaving you like that was
the worst thing I've ever done,
871
01:23:30,547 --> 01:23:32,341
the worst thing I'll ever do in my life.
872
01:23:33,008 --> 01:23:37,304
I knew how badly I'd hurt you,
and I couldn't face you, like you said.
873
01:23:40,015 --> 01:23:44,645
I thought you wouldn't be able to leave
the marsh and live in any other world.
874
01:23:45,479 --> 01:23:49,525
You know, I thought I had to choose
between you and everything else.
875
01:23:49,608 --> 01:23:52,277
But the truth is, Kya,
everything else that I thought mattered,
876
01:23:52,361 --> 01:23:55,531
the scholarships, the grants, the jobs,
it means nothing without you.
877
01:23:58,158 --> 01:23:59,368
I was so wrong.
878
01:24:00,410 --> 01:24:02,162
I've been sorry for years.
879
01:24:04,581 --> 01:24:06,833
And I'll be sorry for the rest of my life.
880
01:24:17,803 --> 01:24:18,637
You look...
881
01:24:31,024 --> 01:24:32,442
I brought you something.
882
01:24:50,252 --> 01:24:53,422
You know, I'm working
at the new lab near town.
883
01:24:55,215 --> 01:24:56,341
You'd love it, Kya.
884
01:24:56,425 --> 01:24:58,594
I get to study all this
under a microscope.
885
01:25:01,930 --> 01:25:03,140
So I'm here now.
886
01:25:05,475 --> 01:25:06,602
I'm back for good.
887
01:25:16,653 --> 01:25:18,697
Kya, I would do anything to...
888
01:25:21,867 --> 01:25:24,077
I would've done
so many things differently.
889
01:25:32,753 --> 01:25:34,671
What do you want now, Tate?
890
01:25:34,755 --> 01:25:37,507
Is there any way that
you could possibly forgive me, Kya?
891
01:25:39,926 --> 01:25:40,761
Please?
892
01:25:43,930 --> 01:25:45,390
I don't know how.
893
01:26:08,580 --> 01:26:12,668
Kya, I trust you would tell me
if you knew of anyone else
894
01:26:12,751 --> 01:26:15,462
who had reason to harm Chase Andrews.
895
01:26:20,008 --> 01:26:21,927
Well, all right, then.
896
01:26:22,511 --> 01:26:24,054
Try and get some rest.
897
01:26:31,353 --> 01:26:32,187
Hi.
898
01:26:32,270 --> 01:26:34,398
Hey. What you doing in town?
899
01:26:34,481 --> 01:26:38,402
I had some good news from the publisher,
so I thought we could celebrate.
900
01:26:38,902 --> 01:26:40,278
- I was gonna make...
- There he is.
901
01:26:47,911 --> 01:26:49,913
Kya, you know Brian, Tina, Pearl.
902
01:26:50,747 --> 01:26:53,333
- You guys know Kya.
- Sure, yeah, the Marsh Girl.
903
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:55,752
Pleased to meet you, Kya.
904
01:26:56,378 --> 01:26:58,296
I'm Chase's fiancée.
905
01:27:00,507 --> 01:27:02,843
All right. Well, I'll see you around, Kya.
906
01:27:43,592 --> 01:27:44,718
Kya!
907
01:27:45,886 --> 01:27:47,721
Hey, Kya. I can explain.
908
01:27:50,682 --> 01:27:51,767
Are you in there?
909
01:27:53,852 --> 01:27:55,270
Hey, I just wanna talk.
910
01:27:56,938 --> 01:27:58,190
Kya!
911
01:28:01,568 --> 01:28:02,861
I know you're here, damn it!
912
01:28:08,867 --> 01:28:09,826
Kya!
913
01:29:04,631 --> 01:29:06,341
I had to do life alone.
914
01:29:08,635 --> 01:29:09,761
But I knew that.
915
01:29:11,388 --> 01:29:13,056
I'd known for a long time.
916
01:29:15,225 --> 01:29:16,434
People don't stay.
917
01:29:28,864 --> 01:29:29,948
"Dear Miss Clark,
918
01:29:30,574 --> 01:29:33,618
enclosed is the final copy
of your beautiful book,
919
01:29:34,119 --> 01:29:36,454
along with the initial check for delivery,
920
01:29:36,538 --> 01:29:38,415
with royalties to follow, I'm sure.
921
01:29:39,916 --> 01:29:42,210
I'm attending a conference
in Greenville next month
922
01:29:42,294 --> 01:29:45,422
and would love for you to join us
and celebrate this great accomplishment."
923
01:29:54,180 --> 01:29:56,933
"A full deed for Catherine Danielle Clark
924
01:29:57,017 --> 01:30:02,314
for 310 acres of lagoons,
marsh, oak forests and beach.
925
01:30:02,898 --> 01:30:05,984
Wasteland category: murky swamp."
926
01:30:27,505 --> 01:30:28,423
Jodie?
927
01:30:28,506 --> 01:30:31,843
There I am in Asheville,
and I see your book in a shop:
928
01:30:32,594 --> 01:30:34,054
Catherine Danielle Clark.
929
01:30:34,137 --> 01:30:38,934
And my heart just broke
and leapt for joy all at once.
930
01:30:39,017 --> 01:30:40,977
I knew I had to find you.
931
01:30:41,686 --> 01:30:43,480
I just didn't think you'd still be here.
932
01:30:44,564 --> 01:30:45,899
What about the others?
933
01:30:46,733 --> 01:30:49,194
I don't know a thing
about Murph, Mandy or Missy.
934
01:30:49,819 --> 01:30:52,238
I wouldn't know them
if I passed them in the street.
935
01:30:52,864 --> 01:30:53,698
And...
936
01:30:55,867 --> 01:30:56,952
what about Ma?
937
01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:02,040
Ma passed, Kya.
938
01:31:10,256 --> 01:31:12,592
Ma had a sister, Rosemary.
939
01:31:12,676 --> 01:31:15,553
She found me in the Army
and told me what happened.
940
01:31:15,637 --> 01:31:18,848
Showed up at Rosemary's door
in her alligator shoes.
941
01:31:18,932 --> 01:31:21,559
Rosemary said she didn't talk for months.
942
01:31:21,643 --> 01:31:24,396
And then about a year later,
she remembered she had children.
943
01:31:25,105 --> 01:31:28,775
Rosemary helped her write a letter to Pa,
asking if she could come get us.
944
01:31:29,693 --> 01:31:32,237
And he told her
if she ever so much as contacted us again,
945
01:31:32,320 --> 01:31:34,030
he'd beat us unrecognizable.
946
01:31:35,532 --> 01:31:37,117
Yeah, sounds like Pa.
947
01:31:37,200 --> 01:31:39,619
She saved up for lawyers and everything,
948
01:31:40,370 --> 01:31:41,871
but then she got sick.
949
01:31:41,955 --> 01:31:42,998
Leukemia.
950
01:31:43,873 --> 01:31:44,874
She tried, but...
951
01:31:44,958 --> 01:31:46,376
She never had a chance.
952
01:31:49,629 --> 01:31:50,630
I've been waiting...
953
01:31:51,923 --> 01:31:54,092
all these years
for her to walk down the lane.
954
01:31:55,927 --> 01:31:58,346
You didn't have a family your whole life,
955
01:31:59,180 --> 01:32:01,641
and there's nothing I can do
to give you that back.
956
01:32:02,642 --> 01:32:06,396
But I'd like to come see you
as much as I can get up here.
957
01:32:11,526 --> 01:32:13,069
Yeah, I'd like that.
958
01:32:50,315 --> 01:32:51,941
Mabel's gonna be so proud.
959
01:32:52,025 --> 01:32:53,526
Just one more thing.
960
01:32:56,071 --> 01:32:57,822
I'll be sure he gets it.
961
01:32:59,157 --> 01:33:00,325
Thank you, Jumpin'.
962
01:33:05,330 --> 01:33:06,581
How y'all doing?
963
01:33:06,664 --> 01:33:09,501
One pack of your finest, please, sir.
964
01:33:09,584 --> 01:33:11,086
And give me some matches.
965
01:33:11,169 --> 01:33:13,254
- Sure thing.
- "Sure thing."
966
01:33:14,714 --> 01:33:16,382
Kya Clark.
967
01:33:17,008 --> 01:33:18,760
Miss Catherine Danielle Clark.
968
01:33:18,843 --> 01:33:20,720
You wrote a damn book. Come here.
969
01:33:20,804 --> 01:33:22,722
Wait, wait, wait. I wanna talk to you.
970
01:33:22,806 --> 01:33:24,724
Don't act like that. Come on.
971
01:33:25,600 --> 01:33:26,768
Leave me alone.
972
01:33:29,729 --> 01:33:32,440
Damn, the Marsh Girl thinks
she's too good for you now.
973
01:33:33,066 --> 01:33:34,025
Shut up!
974
01:33:34,109 --> 01:33:36,402
Here you go, sir. It's on the house.
975
01:33:45,870 --> 01:33:47,455
Thought I might find you here.
976
01:33:48,832 --> 01:33:50,208
I told you to leave me alone.
977
01:33:50,291 --> 01:33:53,711
No, I know, but I just...
Listen, I wanted to say I'm sorry.
978
01:33:53,795 --> 01:33:57,215
Really. I feel bad about
how things turned out.
979
01:33:58,424 --> 01:33:59,884
"How things turned out"?
980
01:34:01,344 --> 01:34:02,971
What, you mean how it turned out
981
01:34:03,054 --> 01:34:05,390
you were engaged
the whole time we were together?
982
01:34:06,432 --> 01:34:10,019
How it turned out
that you lie to everybody?
983
01:34:10,103 --> 01:34:12,605
Kya, I have to do things
I don't wanna do. You know that.
984
01:34:12,689 --> 01:34:15,775
No, I have to get married
to someone like Pearl. I had to.
985
01:34:15,859 --> 01:34:17,652
But you're the one I really want.
986
01:34:21,990 --> 01:34:24,242
You know any other man
would have tried to change you?
987
01:34:25,034 --> 01:34:26,161
To fix you?
988
01:34:27,495 --> 01:34:28,746
I never did.
989
01:34:30,248 --> 01:34:31,499
No, no. Please, please, wait.
990
01:34:31,583 --> 01:34:33,001
I need you. I really need you.
991
01:34:34,586 --> 01:34:36,504
Don't leave me all alone in that place.
992
01:34:37,338 --> 01:34:38,673
You know, nobody else knows me.
993
01:34:43,219 --> 01:34:45,054
You know, I feel sorry for you.
994
01:34:47,223 --> 01:34:49,392
But I want nothing to do with any of that.
995
01:35:03,615 --> 01:35:04,782
Wilder than ever.
996
01:35:08,953 --> 01:35:10,455
I know you want this too.
997
01:35:10,538 --> 01:35:12,415
- Stop!
- I know you want this too.
998
01:35:18,463 --> 01:35:21,341
You're mine, Kya. You belong to me.
I'm not letting you go this time.
999
01:35:42,153 --> 01:35:44,322
Leave me alone, you bastard!
1000
01:35:45,698 --> 01:35:48,701
You bother me again and I'll kill you!
1001
01:35:49,494 --> 01:35:51,621
She shouted it real loud, sir.
1002
01:35:51,704 --> 01:35:53,748
I heard a commotion, and I come closer,
1003
01:35:53,831 --> 01:35:56,960
see if anybody was in trouble,
and there she was.
1004
01:35:57,043 --> 01:35:59,003
And do you recognize the woman?
1005
01:35:59,796 --> 01:36:03,299
Is she in the courtroom today?
1006
01:36:03,383 --> 01:36:05,677
Yes, that one there. The defendant.
1007
01:36:06,469 --> 01:36:08,263
The one folks call Marsh Girl.
1008
01:36:13,685 --> 01:36:16,771
I finally understood why Ma had to leave.
1009
01:37:23,338 --> 01:37:25,006
One thing I learned from Pa,
1010
01:37:25,673 --> 01:37:27,925
these men have to have the last punch.
1011
01:37:55,828 --> 01:37:57,663
Being isolated was one thing.
1012
01:37:58,790 --> 01:38:01,793
Living in fear, quite another.
1013
01:38:03,669 --> 01:38:05,588
I will never live like that.
1014
01:38:06,798 --> 01:38:10,802
A life wondering
when the next fist will fall.
1015
01:38:32,698 --> 01:38:33,950
Tate, you can't be here.
1016
01:38:34,575 --> 01:38:36,035
I just wanted to check on you.
1017
01:38:36,119 --> 01:38:38,621
- Jumpin' said he hadn't seen you since...
- Not now.
1018
01:38:40,289 --> 01:38:41,874
Kya, what happened to your face?
1019
01:38:42,667 --> 01:38:45,169
Was it Chase?
Tell me, Kya. Did he do this?
1020
01:38:45,253 --> 01:38:46,879
I need you to stay out of it.
1021
01:38:46,963 --> 01:38:48,381
That son of a bitch.
1022
01:38:49,090 --> 01:38:51,843
- That son of a bitch.
- Tate, I need you to go.
1023
01:38:51,926 --> 01:38:53,177
Kya.
1024
01:38:59,767 --> 01:39:01,853
You know, I was gonna go
to Greenville next week.
1025
01:39:05,106 --> 01:39:06,732
Finally meet my publishers.
1026
01:39:08,943 --> 01:39:10,528
Talk about the next book.
1027
01:39:11,154 --> 01:39:12,488
I was feeling brave enough.
1028
01:39:12,989 --> 01:39:14,615
Well, you can still go.
1029
01:39:14,699 --> 01:39:16,284
Looking like this?
1030
01:39:16,367 --> 01:39:18,119
Don't let him ruin this for you.
1031
01:39:19,328 --> 01:39:20,413
Go to Greenville.
1032
01:39:21,330 --> 01:39:22,915
Okay? There's a bus.
1033
01:39:22,999 --> 01:39:24,792
It's easy. Jumpin's got the schedule.
1034
01:39:25,710 --> 01:39:27,503
Let them put you up in a nice hotel,
1035
01:39:28,171 --> 01:39:30,381
eat some hot restaurant food
you didn't have to make.
1036
01:39:30,465 --> 01:39:32,425
Stay a week, if you can.
1037
01:39:33,342 --> 01:39:36,220
And I'll come see you
when you're back. Okay?
1038
01:39:37,263 --> 01:39:39,056
Hear how it all went with the publishers.
1039
01:39:39,891 --> 01:39:41,017
All right.
1040
01:39:48,649 --> 01:39:49,484
Hey, you cold?
1041
01:39:51,360 --> 01:39:54,280
I'm fine. I don't need you
to take care of me.
1042
01:39:54,363 --> 01:39:56,240
I know, but just take my hat.
1043
01:39:56,866 --> 01:39:58,993
- I said I don't need your help.
- Just take it.
1044
01:40:27,855 --> 01:40:30,399
You wanna tell me
what happened to your eye?
1045
01:40:31,734 --> 01:40:33,819
I need to write down the bus schedule.
1046
01:40:33,903 --> 01:40:35,404
You have a copy, right?
1047
01:40:40,868 --> 01:40:43,663
It was that Chase, wasn't it?
1048
01:40:46,207 --> 01:40:47,625
Kya, look at me.
1049
01:40:50,628 --> 01:40:52,547
Now you tell me what he did.
1050
01:40:54,840 --> 01:40:56,092
I can't say it.
1051
01:40:57,718 --> 01:40:58,803
It's over now.
1052
01:40:59,595 --> 01:41:01,389
I just want it out of my life.
1053
01:41:01,472 --> 01:41:03,724
And how you know
he ain't coming after you again?
1054
01:41:05,017 --> 01:41:07,728
- You're all by your lonesome out there.
- Jumpin', please.
1055
01:41:09,021 --> 01:41:10,815
You can't tell anybody.
1056
01:41:11,440 --> 01:41:12,650
You know how it is.
1057
01:41:12,733 --> 01:41:18,072
They'd drag me into the sheriffs office
and make me describe it to a bunch of men.
1058
01:41:19,198 --> 01:41:22,618
And then write me up in the papers,
accusing me of whoring.
1059
01:41:23,703 --> 01:41:25,788
Or trying to get money out of his parents.
1060
01:41:26,664 --> 01:41:28,332
Okay? They'd do nothing about it.
1061
01:41:28,416 --> 01:41:29,458
You're right, Kya.
1062
01:41:32,044 --> 01:41:34,505
And I ain't gonna do anything
to make this thing worse.
1063
01:41:36,757 --> 01:41:40,011
But you let me know
when you're coming and going.
1064
01:41:40,094 --> 01:41:41,137
You hear?
1065
01:41:41,971 --> 01:41:43,848
I gotta know if you're out of town.
1066
01:41:47,268 --> 01:41:50,438
'Cause if I don't see you for a while...
1067
01:41:55,818 --> 01:41:57,153
Thank you, Jumpin'.
1068
01:41:58,237 --> 01:41:59,905
I'm leaving in a few days.
1069
01:42:01,616 --> 01:42:03,242
I'll come see you as soon as I'm back.
1070
01:42:05,578 --> 01:42:06,662
Okay, that's good.
1071
01:42:07,747 --> 01:42:08,623
That's good.
1072
01:42:12,543 --> 01:42:16,839
Miss Price, would you tell us
what you saw on the morning of October 29?
1073
01:42:16,922 --> 01:42:18,883
I saw the Marsh Girl...
1074
01:42:18,966 --> 01:42:20,635
Miss Clark, that is. Pardon me.
1075
01:42:20,718 --> 01:42:23,763
- get on the 9:00 bus.
- Well, you've got quite a good memory.
1076
01:42:23,846 --> 01:42:24,889
We all talked about it.
1077
01:42:24,972 --> 01:42:27,433
We'd never seen her
all cleaned up like that.
1078
01:42:27,516 --> 01:42:29,018
Hair combed, makeup.
1079
01:42:29,685 --> 01:42:34,023
Just to be clear,
on the morning of October 29,
1080
01:42:34,106 --> 01:42:38,903
you and several others
saw Miss Clark board the 9 a.m. bus
1081
01:42:38,986 --> 01:42:40,821
and leave Barkley Cove.
1082
01:42:40,905 --> 01:42:42,865
- Yes, that's right.
- Thank you, Miss Price.
1083
01:42:42,948 --> 01:42:44,575
No further questions, Your Honor.
1084
01:42:44,659 --> 01:42:49,163
Miss Price, is the Piggly Wiggly
open at 1:30 in the morning?
1085
01:42:49,789 --> 01:42:50,956
No, sir.
1086
01:42:52,041 --> 01:42:53,668
Well, the reason I ask is,
1087
01:42:54,251 --> 01:42:57,421
you couldn't have seen who got off
the night bus from Greenville,
1088
01:42:57,963 --> 01:43:00,675
nor could you have seen
who got on the 2:30 a.m. bus
1089
01:43:00,758 --> 01:43:04,303
from Barkley Cove
back to Greenville, could you?
1090
01:43:04,387 --> 01:43:06,055
Well, no. Of course not.
1091
01:43:06,138 --> 01:43:11,102
So after you saw Miss Clark board
that morning bus to Greenville...
1092
01:43:12,728 --> 01:43:15,523
she could have returned
to Barkley Cove that night
1093
01:43:15,606 --> 01:43:19,527
and been back in Greenville for breakfast,
all without you taking notice.
1094
01:43:20,319 --> 01:43:21,821
My name is Robert Foster.
1095
01:43:21,904 --> 01:43:25,116
I'm a senior editor
at Harrison Morris Publishing Company
1096
01:43:25,199 --> 01:43:26,283
in Boston, Massachusetts.
1097
01:43:26,367 --> 01:43:30,663
Mr. Foster, you sat down for dinner
with Miss Clark at 7 p.m.
1098
01:43:30,746 --> 01:43:32,790
on the night of October 29.
1099
01:43:32,873 --> 01:43:34,125
- Correct?
- Yes.
1100
01:43:34,208 --> 01:43:36,252
What was your first impression of her?
1101
01:43:37,753 --> 01:43:43,384
My first impression was that
she was very shy, very gentle, very smart.
1102
01:43:44,343 --> 01:43:46,137
I knew that she was
something of a recluse,
1103
01:43:46,220 --> 01:43:49,098
but I also knew that
she was a gifted naturalist.
1104
01:43:49,181 --> 01:43:52,143
- How long did that dinner go on?
- At least a few hours.
1105
01:43:52,226 --> 01:43:53,936
Some female insects do eat their mates.
1106
01:43:54,019 --> 01:43:56,814
Fireflies, in fact,
have two different light signals.
1107
01:43:57,314 --> 01:43:58,441
One for mating,
1108
01:43:58,524 --> 01:44:01,527
and one to attract a male
in order to make him her next meal.
1109
01:44:01,610 --> 01:44:03,112
- So she eats him?
- How gruesome.
1110
01:44:03,195 --> 01:44:06,115
- Dear.
- I must spend less time with insects.
1111
01:44:06,198 --> 01:44:08,534
- It's quite amoral.
- Amoral, indeed.
1112
01:44:08,617 --> 01:44:10,828
I don't know if there is
a dark side to nature.
1113
01:44:12,705 --> 01:44:14,498
Just inventive ways to endure.
1114
01:44:15,791 --> 01:44:16,876
Against all odds.
1115
01:44:16,959 --> 01:44:21,547
And when you met with Miss Clark
the following morning, October 30th,
1116
01:44:21,630 --> 01:44:25,593
was there anything unusual
about her appearance or her demeanor?
1117
01:44:25,676 --> 01:44:26,844
Not at all.
1118
01:44:27,470 --> 01:44:29,138
No further questions, Your Honor.
1119
01:44:29,221 --> 01:44:34,393
Mr. Foster, did Miss Clark stay at
the same hotel as you and your colleagues?
1120
01:44:34,477 --> 01:44:37,104
No. She preferred a smaller hotel.
1121
01:44:37,188 --> 01:44:39,732
The Mountain something.
1122
01:44:39,815 --> 01:44:43,068
Could you look at this map
of Greenville for me, please?
1123
01:44:43,152 --> 01:44:47,740
I think you'll see The Piedmont,
where you and your colleagues stayed,
1124
01:44:47,823 --> 01:44:51,827
and then The Three Mountains Hotel,
where Miss Clark stayed.
1125
01:44:51,911 --> 01:44:55,414
Could you tell me which one
is closest to the bus station?
1126
01:44:57,082 --> 01:44:59,502
The Three Mountains Hotel is closer.
1127
01:44:59,585 --> 01:45:03,214
In fact, The Three Mountains
is the closest hotel
1128
01:45:03,297 --> 01:45:05,508
to the Greenville bus station.
Is that correct?
1129
01:45:06,801 --> 01:45:07,927
Looks that way.
1130
01:45:08,803 --> 01:45:10,137
No further questions.
1131
01:45:10,638 --> 01:45:14,016
I don't think a good lawyer
ever puts their client on the stand,
1132
01:45:14,099 --> 01:45:15,768
but this might help you.
1133
01:45:16,393 --> 01:45:20,689
For the jury to be able
to hear from you, directly.
1134
01:45:21,941 --> 01:45:25,027
For them to be able to see you...
1135
01:45:26,403 --> 01:45:28,989
as the kind
and thoughtful person you truly are.
1136
01:45:29,073 --> 01:45:30,699
They're never gonna see me like that.
1137
01:45:30,783 --> 01:45:34,203
Listen. I know you have a world
of reasons to hate these people...
1138
01:45:34,286 --> 01:45:35,704
No, I never hated them.
1139
01:45:35,788 --> 01:45:37,289
They hated me.
1140
01:45:38,624 --> 01:45:41,794
They laughed at me. They left me.
1141
01:45:42,378 --> 01:45:44,755
They harassed me. They attacked me.
1142
01:45:44,839 --> 01:45:47,800
You want me to beg for my life?
1143
01:45:48,884 --> 01:45:50,094
I don't have it in me.
1144
01:45:50,719 --> 01:45:51,804
I won't.
1145
01:45:53,556 --> 01:45:56,141
I will not offer myself up.
1146
01:45:56,225 --> 01:45:57,685
They can make their decision.
1147
01:46:00,229 --> 01:46:03,983
But they're not deciding
anything about me.
1148
01:46:05,901 --> 01:46:06,861
It's them.
1149
01:46:08,821 --> 01:46:10,281
They're judging themselves.
1150
01:46:13,033 --> 01:46:14,159
All right, then.
1151
01:46:21,542 --> 01:46:24,712
Mr. Milton, you have always
been kind to me.
1152
01:46:26,213 --> 01:46:27,464
Even as a child.
1153
01:46:29,258 --> 01:46:30,593
I never forgot.
1154
01:46:40,644 --> 01:46:44,356
His life was cut short by the jilted lover
1155
01:46:44,440 --> 01:46:47,651
who could not accept
that he had returned to the fold.
1156
01:46:48,193 --> 01:46:52,656
A witness saw Miss Clark
and Chase in the marsh.
1157
01:46:52,740 --> 01:46:55,576
Heard her say the words "I'll kill you."
1158
01:46:56,076 --> 01:46:57,411
And what's more,
1159
01:46:57,494 --> 01:47:01,790
is there's physical evidence
from that night connecting them.
1160
01:47:02,416 --> 01:47:05,461
Fibers from her red wool cap
1161
01:47:05,961 --> 01:47:07,838
left on his denim jacket.
1162
01:47:07,922 --> 01:47:09,465
Dad, I'm going over to deal with it.
1163
01:47:09,548 --> 01:47:12,509
Who else would have motive
to take that shell necklace?
1164
01:47:14,511 --> 01:47:17,014
You can, and you must,
1165
01:47:17,097 --> 01:47:21,685
find that the defendant
is guilty of first-degree murder.
1166
01:47:31,487 --> 01:47:32,613
Mr. Milton.
1167
01:47:48,379 --> 01:47:52,591
I have lived
in Barkley Cove my whole life.
1168
01:47:53,759 --> 01:47:57,763
And like you, I heard the tall tales
1169
01:47:57,846 --> 01:47:59,765
told about the Marsh Girl.
1170
01:48:00,307 --> 01:48:02,601
That she was part wolf.
1171
01:48:02,685 --> 01:48:06,355
A missing link between ape and man.
1172
01:48:06,855 --> 01:48:09,316
That her eyes glowed in the dark.
1173
01:48:11,068 --> 01:48:13,779
Well, here she is.
1174
01:48:14,655 --> 01:48:18,575
The reality is that
she was an abandoned child.
1175
01:48:18,659 --> 01:48:23,163
A little girl surviving out there
in the marsh on her own,
1176
01:48:23,247 --> 01:48:25,874
reviled and shunned.
1177
01:48:28,836 --> 01:48:32,256
Mr. James Madison and his wife, Mabel,
1178
01:48:32,339 --> 01:48:34,591
they are sitting here
in the courtroom today.
1179
01:48:34,675 --> 01:48:38,595
They're about the only people
in this town who showed her any care.
1180
01:48:38,679 --> 01:48:40,055
The rest of us...
1181
01:48:42,516 --> 01:48:44,393
Well, I'm ashamed to say
1182
01:48:45,561 --> 01:48:51,150
that we labeled her and rejected her
because we thought she was different.
1183
01:48:51,859 --> 01:48:53,277
And now...
1184
01:48:55,070 --> 01:48:58,824
the job of judging this shy
and rejected young woman
1185
01:48:58,907 --> 01:49:01,493
has fallen on your shoulders.
1186
01:49:01,577 --> 01:49:06,999
But you must base your judgment
on the facts presented in this courtroom,
1187
01:49:07,082 --> 01:49:13,172
and not on the rumors and feelings
from the past 25 years.
1188
01:49:13,255 --> 01:49:16,175
Miss Clark has a solid alibi.
1189
01:49:16,258 --> 01:49:19,595
She was in Greenville
the night Chase Andrews died.
1190
01:49:19,678 --> 01:49:24,641
And what facts,
exactly, stand against her?
1191
01:49:26,351 --> 01:49:31,315
The State has not proven
that this incident was indeed a murder,
1192
01:49:31,398 --> 01:49:34,485
and not just some tragic accident.
1193
01:49:35,527 --> 01:49:39,198
The State wants you to believe
that at 11:30 at night,
1194
01:49:39,281 --> 01:49:41,825
without a single witness seeing her,
1195
01:49:41,909 --> 01:49:45,287
she caught the last bus
from Greenville to Barkley Cove,
1196
01:49:45,370 --> 01:49:47,998
and rode that bus disguised,
1197
01:49:48,082 --> 01:49:50,209
since neither of
the bus drivers that night
1198
01:49:50,292 --> 01:49:54,630
could identify her as a passenger,
all the way back to Barkley Cove.
1199
01:49:54,713 --> 01:49:58,550
And then, in less than an hour...
1200
01:50:00,177 --> 01:50:03,013
she tracks down Chase Andrews
in the middle of the night,
1201
01:50:03,097 --> 01:50:05,599
lures him to the tower, murders him,
1202
01:50:05,682 --> 01:50:07,768
wipes away all physical evidence,
1203
01:50:07,851 --> 01:50:12,731
and somehow catches
the 2:30 a.m. bus back to Greenville.
1204
01:50:12,815 --> 01:50:15,317
Again, without
a single witness seeing her.
1205
01:50:15,400 --> 01:50:18,320
And after doing all that,
1206
01:50:19,571 --> 01:50:23,075
she meets with her publishers
the next morning, unruffled.
1207
01:50:23,617 --> 01:50:25,160
Now, these are not facts.
1208
01:50:25,953 --> 01:50:28,789
These are just more of the rumors
1209
01:50:28,872 --> 01:50:34,419
and tall tales that we have been spreading
about Miss Clark her entire life.
1210
01:50:35,087 --> 01:50:39,049
I believe you will come to
a judgment based on the facts,
1211
01:50:39,133 --> 01:50:42,511
and not the gossip
that you have heard for years.
1212
01:50:43,554 --> 01:50:45,973
It's time, at last,
1213
01:50:46,932 --> 01:50:51,019
for all of us to be fair
to the Marsh Girl.
1214
01:50:53,230 --> 01:50:55,482
Maybe you should go home
and do your waiting there.
1215
01:50:55,566 --> 01:50:58,152
Six hours already.
How long do you think they'll take?
1216
01:50:58,235 --> 01:51:00,612
Well, let's hope they take
a good long while.
1217
01:51:00,696 --> 01:51:04,575
If a few jurors have doubts,
we got a chance.
1218
01:51:19,298 --> 01:51:22,676
Mr. Foreman, is it correct
that the jury has reached a verdict?
1219
01:51:23,177 --> 01:51:24,386
We have, Your Honor.
1220
01:51:38,609 --> 01:51:42,613
The defendant will please rise
for the reading of the verdict.
1221
01:51:47,618 --> 01:51:48,493
Stand up.
1222
01:51:58,587 --> 01:52:02,925
"We, the jury, find the defendant,
Catherine Danielle Clark...
1223
01:52:04,218 --> 01:52:09,723
not guilty of first-degree murder
of Mr. Chase Andrews."
1224
01:52:15,896 --> 01:52:18,273
Miss Clark, you are free to go.
1225
01:52:18,357 --> 01:52:22,277
And I apologize, on behalf of the State,
for the time that you have served.
1226
01:52:22,361 --> 01:52:24,112
This court is dismissed.
1227
01:52:28,367 --> 01:52:29,368
Thank you.
1228
01:52:35,666 --> 01:52:36,500
Come here.
1229
01:52:39,044 --> 01:52:41,797
You're okay. You're all right.
1230
01:52:43,382 --> 01:52:46,718
You just forget about this nonsense.
We're looking forward to the next book.
1231
01:53:02,025 --> 01:53:03,360
Can you take me home?
1232
01:53:51,742 --> 01:53:53,702
Now I can finally admit.
1233
01:53:54,828 --> 01:53:59,291
All the months in isolation,
yearning to be back in the marsh,
1234
01:53:59,875 --> 01:54:02,711
it was knowing
how much was left to explore,
1235
01:54:03,670 --> 01:54:06,131
how much life to uncover in the wild,
1236
01:54:06,214 --> 01:54:07,382
that kept me going.
1237
01:54:09,634 --> 01:54:10,886
And the hope,
1238
01:54:11,720 --> 01:54:13,096
always that hope...
1239
01:54:14,681 --> 01:54:16,641
that one day I could share it...
1240
01:54:19,019 --> 01:54:21,938
with the only person
I had ever truly loved.
1241
01:54:52,511 --> 01:54:53,595
Kya!
1242
01:54:55,138 --> 01:54:55,972
Kya.
1243
01:55:11,947 --> 01:55:12,781
Hey.
1244
01:55:13,657 --> 01:55:15,033
You know I love you, right?
1245
01:56:19,723 --> 01:56:20,557
What?
1246
01:56:21,433 --> 01:56:22,392
Will you...?
1247
01:56:22,476 --> 01:56:24,394
Sorry. I'm sorry.
1248
01:56:27,063 --> 01:56:28,231
Will you marry me?
1249
01:56:29,900 --> 01:56:31,151
I mean, do you want to?
1250
01:56:34,863 --> 01:56:36,281
Well, aren't we already?
1251
01:56:38,033 --> 01:56:38,992
Like geese?
1252
01:56:42,162 --> 01:56:43,830
I can live with that, I guess.
1253
01:56:46,500 --> 01:56:47,375
Come here.
1254
01:56:59,638 --> 01:57:01,640
Here we go.
1255
01:57:01,723 --> 01:57:02,641
Hey.
1256
01:57:02,724 --> 01:57:04,768
Hey, you. Hi, there.
1257
01:57:10,815 --> 01:57:12,442
Come here, baby girl.
1258
01:57:14,444 --> 01:57:16,488
He loved you so much.
1259
01:57:26,957 --> 01:57:28,875
Kya. Look at that.
1260
01:57:28,959 --> 01:57:31,545
You see that up there?
On the elbow of that branch?
1261
01:57:33,588 --> 01:57:35,799
When's the last time we saw one of those?
1262
01:57:36,883 --> 01:57:37,884
I know.
1263
01:57:42,347 --> 01:57:45,392
This book's pretty good.
This guy's still talking about...
1264
01:57:59,489 --> 01:58:01,449
I hope when it is time for me to leave,
1265
01:58:01,533 --> 01:58:04,703
I will go quick and easy,
without making too much noise.
1266
01:58:25,640 --> 01:58:26,641
Ma!
1267
01:58:27,350 --> 01:58:28,351
Ma.
1268
01:58:33,481 --> 01:58:34,316
Ma.
1269
01:58:36,276 --> 01:58:37,110
Kya?
1270
01:58:37,944 --> 01:58:38,945
Kya!
1271
01:59:17,025 --> 01:59:18,735
It has always been enough...
1272
01:59:19,819 --> 01:59:22,447
to be part of the natural
sequence of things.
1273
01:59:23,865 --> 01:59:25,158
Sure as the tides.
1274
01:59:25,992 --> 01:59:27,369
Nature my guide.
1275
01:59:32,540 --> 01:59:34,125
The marsh knows all about death...
1276
01:59:37,045 --> 01:59:39,673
and doesn't necessarily
define it as tragedy.
1277
01:59:40,840 --> 01:59:42,258
Certainly not a sin.
1278
01:59:44,010 --> 01:59:48,056
It understands that every creature
does what it must to survive.
1279
01:59:50,725 --> 01:59:53,978
And that sometimes, for prey to live...
1280
01:59:55,105 --> 01:59:56,856
its predator must die.
1281
02:00:25,135 --> 02:00:26,469
I am the marsh now.
1282
02:00:28,555 --> 02:00:30,140
I am the feather of an egret.
1283
02:00:31,433 --> 02:00:34,060
I am every shell washed upon the shore.
1284
02:00:37,731 --> 02:00:39,107
I am a firefly.
1285
02:00:40,150 --> 02:00:43,611
You'll see hundreds beckoning
far into the dark reaches of the marsh.
1286
02:00:44,738 --> 02:00:46,781
And that's where you will always find me.
1287
02:00:47,991 --> 02:00:49,242
Way out yonder.
1288
02:00:49,951 --> 02:00:51,411
Where the crawdads sing.
