Original subtitles

- In the criminal justice system,

sexually based offenses

are considered especially heinous.

In New York City, the dedicated detectives

who investigate these vicious felonies

are members of an elite squad

known as the Special Victims Unit.

These are their stories.

- You are a household name, Paulo.

You're playing the best soccer of your life.

- I know that.

Does the front office?

- They do.

It's what the Kings hoped for

when they brought you over from Brazil five years ago.

And they want to continue to...

nurture that investment.

- Meaning what? We got it all?

50 million over five years.

- And the no-fault clause?

- Thanks to me, it's locked and loaded.

You, my friend, are among the untouchables.

- Your talent is untouchable.

Always has been, always will be.

All right. We should head out of here.

You've got a match to prepare for.

- As it stands now, we are here at one apiece

with five-plus minutes left of the game.

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

taking it straight to Cincinnati's defense.

He gets by one defender, then another.

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

He tries to find a way.

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

Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal!

- How you doing? - Good, good.

- What's going on, guys?

- Welcome, Mr. Rocha.

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

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

- Presidential suite, right?

- As always.

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

Can you believe this?

They're saying Piñero's defense

was the deciding factor against Cincinnati.

- You don't dive in that cesspool.

Nobody knows what they're talking about.

- I score the goals, make the plays.

I create. Defense doesn't do anything.

- I hear you, boy-o.

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

- After this interview, nobody's gonna be talking

about Piñero. Believe me.

- Hey, maybe we can push it until tomorrow.

I've got dates tonight. Multiple.

- Paulo, it's for "Sports Wrap."

The cover story. You got to do this.

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

They can quote me on that.

- It's part of your job, Paulo.

- No, it is not.

My job is to win matches, get paid.

That's it.

Hey, come on.

I want to celebrate.

- Paulo, please. - Just push it.

It is your job, business manager.

- Can you weigh in here, please?

- Reporter's not in town much longer.

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

Boy-o, come on.

Let's get that face out there.

- Hello, Paulo.

- Olá, bonita.

And what do I call you?

- I'm Nellie.

- Well, Nellie,

você tem um sorriso lindo.

- OK.

OK, should we get started?

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

You love playing mini golf.

- Ah, well, what can I say?

I'm charmed by those little windmills.

- Mm.

Since joining the Kings,

the team has won two championships.

You're about to sign another multimillion dollar contract.

The fans love you...

- And I love them.

- But you've also developed a reputation as a showboater

and a selfish player on and off the field.

For example,

in August, when Piñero's mother died,

every player went to her funeral but you.

- That was my call.

Paulo wanted to go, but he needed rest.

- Is that true, Paulo?

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

Nellie and I can handle this.

- That's not really a good idea...

- Thank you, Timothy.

- Let's go.

Can I get you a drink?

I'm having one.

- No, thank you.

- OK, then.

What else you got?

- On the field, you seem to take pleasure

in humiliating opposing players.

- The fans love it.

It's like gladiators in the ring.

- Or you're a tyrant.

- You're cocky.

Have we done this before?

- You don't remember me, do you?

I wasn't quite so cocky back then.

- You interviewed me.

- No, I was just a simple fan.

- Ah, well, I have so many fans,

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

spirited as you.

Where did we meet again?

- It was London eight years ago.

- Lucky me.

Fate has brought us back together.

Hey.

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

- You're a piece of crap, Paulo.

- Would you just calm down?

- Stay away from me!

- Let's talk about this.

- You're talking about Paulo Rocha,

the soccer player?

- Yeah, big fish in a big pond.

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

- OK, can you walk us through what happened?

- Yeah, all right, so my editors

have been after this interview for years.

I asked Paulo a few questions.

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

- So you were alone with Paulo?

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

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

without his handlers.

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

And I told him I'm not interested.

- And what happened when you told him no?

- He grabbed my breast and pushed me onto the couch.

And then he raped me.

- Nellie, did you tell anyone afterwards,

maybe a friend or a colleague?

- No.

But some of it is recorded.

I mean, I was doing an interview.

- OK, can we... - Yeah.

Jesus, could you please stop?

- It's not funny. Let go.

- Aw, no. Come on, baby.

We're celebrating.

- No, absolutely not. I said stop!

- Hey, hey.

You're not going anywhere.

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

The money and power goes to their heads.

To them, everyone's either an employee

or a possession.

He's, like, a genuine superstar.

- Yeah, which means this case is gonna be

a genuine pain in the ass.

- This reporter, she's credible?

- And she's got a recording of the encounter.

- I think that Muncy's right.

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

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

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

And you two, get the security footage from the hotel

before some desk clerk leaks it.

- So you're a soccer fan?

- No, I'm a fútbol fan.

You know, the most popular sport in the world?

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

- Or getting a traumatic brain injury.

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

- I'd rather stop by a laundromat,

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

- Officers, how may I help you?

- It's detectives.

- And you may help us by confirming

that Paulo Rocha was a guest here last night.

- He had an interview. What's this about?

- Is this the woman who interviewed him?

- Hmm, I couldn't really say.

- Well, could you say where the security footage

from the 15th floor is?

- Nellie must have misunderstood.

- Maybe she did, maybe she didn't.

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

- A complaint alleging what?

- That Paulo tried to force himself on her.

Did you?

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

But on women, never.

- You're talking about one

of the greatest soccer players of all time.

- That makes it OK?

- What Mr. Mondale is saying

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

but of the entire league.

In five years with the Kings,

he hasn't had one complaint against him.

- The thing is, though, Nellie recorded the interview.

- It's not funny. Let go.

- Aw, no. Come on, baby.

We're celebrating.

- No, absolutely not. I said stop!

- You want us to keep going? - Wow.

Well, this doesn't prove anything.

You want to tell him, or should I?

- Tell us what?

- Nellie and Paulo have a history.

- And I am guessing that Nellie left that part out.

- You were in a relationship?

- A very serious one, about eight years ago.

It was intense, passionate.

Last night, we fell into some old habits.

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

- I have no idea.

- My guess is she heard about the $50 million contract

and was prepared to use that tape

as some sort of shakedown.

- Sorry you have wasted a trip.

- You're a piece of crap, Paulo.

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

- Let's talk about this.

- So she storms down the hall.

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

- And his team is claiming that this was a shakedown.

- She looks pretty upset to me.

- And the video is consistent with her statement.

- If there's no camera in the suite,

this doesn't do us much good.

- It's not great

that she didn't tell us about the relationship,

so we need to make sure that Nellie is solid

before Paulo gets too far ahead of us.

- Well, that ship may have already sailed.

He's trending on Twitter.

A video of some obscure soccer podcast.

- Always got to watch out for the...

I think in English, you say opportunist.

Fans, friends, even reporters. - OK.

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

We had a fling back in the day.

But she was a little too louca for my taste,

so I had to end it.

- Oh, sure you did.

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

and everything in it is a lie.

So I call her out, and she says,

since I did her dirty back then,

she's going to do me dirty now.

Some reporters have more to hide than to reveal.

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

- Because of that podcast?

- Nellie, it doesn't matter

that you had a prior relationship with Paulo

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

- The truth will come out

if you look more closely into Paulo.

But I can't be part of this anymore.

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

He got me pregnant.

I have a son.

- That you've never told him about?

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

in my baby's life.

- And now he is?

You took a real risk interviewing him, then.

- I just wanted...

I wanted the world to know who he really was.

And I underestimated him.

He found out.

Private eyes, one of his lackeys.

I don't know.

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

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

I never should have come to you.

- Nellie, listen to me.

You did the right thing by coming forward.

- You don't understand.

I cannot go forward with this case.

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

- We can help you.

- I don't see how!

- Wait. Nellie, hold on.

Please talk this through with us.

- My son is all I have.

I'm sorry. I really am.

- So that's it? Nellie's out?

- She went back to London.

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

And quite frankly, I understand it.

- Which means our sexual assault case against him

goes in a circular file.

- This one, yeah, but Nellie did imply

that the truth will come out.

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

What else do we know about him?

- He was born in Rio de Janeiro.

He played three World Cups for Brazil.

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

before he was lured to the U.S.

- See if you can track down his sheet in Brazil.

All right. What about this country?

Are there any other complaints?

- Nothing criminal.

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

they've swept it under the rug.

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

- They've asked that we kindly direct any future inquiries

to their in-house counsel.

- Look, forget his handlers.

What about his family? What about friends?

- As far as I can tell, he has no friends

besides his entourage.

- He was married to a Mexican TV actress,

co-founder of his media company.

They divorced after two years.

- That could have been annulled.

Was there a settlement?

- $10 million.

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

- Find out what she was being paid to keep secret.

- Damn, two years of marriage gets you this?

I got to get back on the dating apps.

- She's a career woman just like you.

- Yeah, well, I guess telenovelas

pay a lot more than a badge.

- Don't we know it?

- I heard the podcast.

Poor Paulo.

The vultures are always circling.

- You were married to Paulo.

What can you tell us about your relationship?

- Short but sweet.

- It beats long and sour.

- He didn't pay to keep me.

He paid to leave me.

- Well, $10 million buys a lot of amnesia.

- Mm, you've done your research.

What's this about?

- The reporter he mentioned in that podcast

filed a credible sexual assault complaint against Paulo.

- She has nothing to gain and a lot to lose.

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

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

- So there were other women.

Pretty good reason for a divorce.

- Paulo was an excellent provider,

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

It's really quite simple.

I got bored.

- We're having guests for dinner.

I have to check the menu with the cook.

- Gracias, mamá.

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

- Sure.

- Your daughter is very beautiful.

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

Also maybe a little bit of a curse?

- So many men, like fruit flies.

Thinking with their picos.

- Yeah, but Paulo, he married her, right?

- Mujeriego.

Cheater, liar.

She deserved every cent she got from him.

- How do you know he was sleeping around?

- I know.

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

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

- OK. Nothing more specific?

- One time, I caught him in the pool house

with Simone's yoga teacher.

Yoga.

More like wrestling.

Their clothes were half off.

- And what did you do?

- I fired her.

I didn't tell Simone.

She thinks she quit.

- Does this yoga teacher have a name?

- Ebony Jones doesn't work here anymore.

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

- Can you tell us what happened?

- She threatened to sue one of our clients.

Completely unfounded too.

- Is this client's name Simone Rocha?

- You know her?

Then you know Simone and her ex, Paulo,

were Physique's golden geese.

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

- You got a number or an address?

- Sorry, once an employee is no longer an employee,

we dump their info.

- Mm-hmm, thanks.

- So what now?

- Well, if Ebony followed through with the lawsuit,

it'll still be on record with the courthouse.

I'll call Fin.

- Sup, Rhonda?

- Fin, look at you.

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

I brought you a gift.

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

- Of course, 'cause you know nothing

and no one changes around here.

- Too old for that. - Yes.

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

- It's Ebony Jones versus Simone Rocha.

- No Simone.

Wait, you must mean Paulo Rocha.

- Paulo, really? - Yes.

Which year are you looking for?

- There's more than one case.

We got him now.

Paulo's been sued for sexual assault 12 times.

- 12 times?

- Yeah, civil cases.

None of the vics took it to the police.

- Were there settlements?

- All but one, and that's only

because it was filed two days ago.

- So it hasn't even gone to trial?

- Mm-mm.

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

for Paulo's bank statements.

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

- Mm-hmm.

- I did file a lawsuit against Paulo two days ago,

but I changed my mind.

I can't really talk about it, though.

I signed an NDA.

- How about off the record, Aline?

- I guess that's OK.

I met up with Paulo.

He was wasted, in a foul mood.

- About what?

- He was ranting about that reporter chick.

- He told you about her?

- It totally killed the vibe.

Asked him if I could take a rain check.

- Let me guess. The check bounced.

- I was just supposed to give Paulo a private lesson,

and he said that wasn't what he wanted.

He was super aggressive.

Followed me into the pool house.

Couldn't keep his hands off of me.

- How'd you handle that, Ebony?

- I pepper-sprayed him and walked out.

And after that, Simone's mother fired me.

- I'm trying to give Paulo physical therapy,

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

- What did you do?

- I froze.

He's a VIP.

Nobody ever says anything bad about him.

I thought maybe it was just me.

- Why didn't you file a police report?

- He was too powerful.

I thought I'd never work again.

- Sometimes I hate those locker room situations.

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

The women that agreed to talk to us...

Therapist, masseuses, trainers...

All told a similar version of the same story

consistent with Nellie's.

- OK, so groping, fondling, forcible contact.

That's sex abuse one.

- The problem is we're hamstrung by the NDAs.

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

Aline? - Settled before the ink dried.

- OK, well, Rollins and Muncy

are scouring through his financial statements.

Hopefully something will come of that.

Were you able to track down his Brazilian record?

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

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

What's going on?

- I was hoping you could tell me.

Anything I need to know?

Some heavy hitter you got in your crosshairs maybe?

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

- Yeah, you know I am.

- We're working the case.

Our complainant fell through,

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

So this is an ongoing investigation.

- Way I hear it, it's an ongoing campaign

of harassment. - What?

- Badgering his former employees,

even after they've asked you to stop?

- Excuse me? - Yeah.

Yeah, Rocha's lawyer called 1PP.

Said these are just hardworking people

who want to be left alone. - Chief...

- And then he threatens to sue the department.

- Hang on, these women were not pressured

to come forward.

- Are you sure about that?

- Yes.

- 'Cause the deputy commissioner

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

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

then we got to fix this.

- Perhaps it was a communication breakdown

within your squad, Captain,

because we were under the impression

that this matter was closed.

- Nellie withdrew her complaint, right?

- She did, yes,

but when we find a potential victim credible,

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

- It's just standard procedure.

- Well, it doesn't feel standard to me.

It feels like profiling.

- I'll handle this, Paulo.

Your complaining witness drops out,

and yet, you request a court order

for my client's financial records

and continue to harass his family and associates?

- No one was harassed, Counselor.

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

- Well, these statements tell a different story.

Four of the women you interviewed

attested that SVU's repeated follow-ups

left them feeling overburdened and threatened.

- We both know that's not what happened.

- Why don't we let a judge decide?

We can take these to one right now.

- No, there's no need. No need.

You have our assurance

these people won't be bothered anymore.

Isn't that right, Captain Benson?

- Good.

We appreciate your cooperation.

- Captain Benson.

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

I always admired her.

- You know, I'm curious.

If you didn't do anything wrong,

why not just let us do our jobs?

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

I don't just stand there.

- Mm. - I swat it away.

- Oh, that's poetic.

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

I'm not afraid of you. - Captain.

- And you have no leverage over me,

so make all the threats you want.

But sooner or later, I will find something.

It's just unbelievable.

- How'd it go with Paulo?

- This guy thinks that he's Teflon.

And they also claimed that they have a statement

from women that we interviewed alleging harassment.

- Harassment by us?

That's either doctored or coerced.

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

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

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

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

One-time payments.

It's $100,000

to each of the women that he settled with.

- Right, nothing else out of the ordinary there.

- But his personal accounts, they reveal this little tidbit.

Cash withdrawals, right? Starting June 2021.

And they're taken out quarterly.

- Same amount he paid his victims.

- And this is the last one?

- Yeah, this morning.

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

- Follow the money.

That means follow him.

- What's he waiting for?

- Uber back to Brazil?

- How can you eat that crap?

You know how processed that stuff is?

- You're right.

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

- Ooh, here we go.

- Oh, whoa. Who's that?

- She looks familiar.

Uh-huh, Paulo's Instagram.

Yeah, Paulo, his business manager, Antonio,

and Antonio's wife, Marcía Campos.

- Is Antonio's wife taking a payoff?

- We may have just found woman number 13.

- Mrs. Campos.

- Can I help you?

- I'm Sergeant Tutuola.

This is Detective Rollins.

- We wanted to talk to you about Paulo Rocha.

- He's my husband's client.

I have nothing to say about him.

- You have anything to say about this?

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

- That's none of your business.

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

You wouldn't understand.

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

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

We just want... - To ruin my marriage?

Stay away from me and my family.

- Mom, everything OK? - Take these bags.

Go.

- OK, so we've hit a speed bump.

Do we think that Marcía is a victim?

- She was definitely hiding something.

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

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

- So Paulo's sidestepping Antonio.

- Which brings us back to Marcía.

- With her daughter, yeah.

This is Ana Campos, 17.

Only child of Antonio and Marcía.

- Yeah, we saw her at the Campos' house.

- Her page is chock-full of photos

of her and Paulo together at Wembley,

in Saint-Tropez, on the Rialto Bridge.

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

He's like an uncle.

- Plus, he's famous.

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

then why would he just disappear from her feed?

- When?

- June 2021, when she was 16.

And I mean disappeared.

Not a single photo of the two of them together.

- June 2021?

That's around the time

Paulo started making cash withdrawals

without Antonio knowing about it.

- And it's not like Ana stopped posting either.

But all of a sudden, nothing with Paulo?

I mean, something happened there.

- OK, so track her down and find out what.

- Here you are. - Thank you.

- Hey, I'm so sorry to bother you.

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

Ana? - Yeah.

Hi. - Hi!

Oh, my God, girl, those photos

of you and Paulo Rocha are fire,

and we need more of them. - Thanks.

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

- Really? Why? Did you get in trouble

for, like, stalking him or something?

- What? No.

It was more like he was stalking me.

- Really?

He and I had a thing.

Stop. No, you didn't.

- Yeah, we hooked up last year.

- Oh, my God. I'm so jealous.

I've seen pictures of his abs.

But you're so young.

You must have been, like, a baby.

- I was 16.

He gave me this on my birthday.

- Wow. - They're real.

It started the next day at his penthouse.

He was all over me.

- Really?

- Interesting place.

- The monks made these for kings,

but they worked in ice cold cells.

Total silence.

Sometimes they left little complaints.

Jokes in the margins.

Like here.

"This paper sure is hairy."

- It makes them seem more relatable.

- But you're not here for the art.

- We looked into Paulo's personal bank account,

the one you don't have access to.

- We found he's been making cash withdrawals

every few months and...

secretly meeting with your wife to give them to her.

- Marcía? You're lying.

- Well, Marcía wouldn't talk to us.

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

but your daughter did.

- Ana? - Ana.

Paulo had a sexual relationship with Ana

when she was 16 years old.

We think Marcía found out.

- Your best friend has been paying her off ever since.

- No, this isn't true.

No, my wife would tell me.

I would know. I know everything.

No, no, no, no. - Mm.

Wait. Ana told you this?

- Your daughter is not to blame here.

- Look, a young girl, stars in her eyes.

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

Obviously, not anymore.

- You know Paulo better than anyone.

You think your daughter would be off-limits

to a man who has none?

- When we were growing up, I was older.

Paulo looked at me like I was his hero.

Even after his star rose,

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

- You made him who he is.

And you protected him from all the other women.

- From himself. - Yeah.

And he repays you by using your teenage daughter

like she was another one of his conquests.

- Hey.

Olá, meu amigo.

I'm making feijoada for dinner tonight.

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

She's a girl I want to impress.

Hey, you're welcome to join.

- I can't stay.

- Make sure nobody enters this building

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

- I remember this day at Praia Vermelha.

You were running around,

following me everywhere I went, like my shadow.

- It's funny how things change, right?

- I had another visit from the police today.

- Jackals.

Did you take care of it?

- For now.

But you heard that captain.

They're gonna keep looking.

You went too far, Paulo.

- Do you remember those old westerns

where the outlaw would rob the bank?

That's me.

I'm a safecracker.

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

You listen for the clicks.

- The clicks? - Mm-hmm.

Trainers, masseuses... one click.

That's barely a challenge.

A professional woman like Nellie...

A reporter... two clicks.

It's a better challenge.

But that door was already opened.

And once it's open, it never shuts.

- Yeah, and a young woman,

like my Ana,

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

- Ana?

What the hell is that?

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

that you violated my daughter.

- No, Antonio. Are you listening to yourself?

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

Be honest.

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

I know all your lies.

I am your lies!

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

Say it!

Say it.

- I'm a competitor, Antonio.

- Babaca.

She's only a child!

- She is a woman, a beautiful woman!

She wanted to have sex more than I did!

- Boom. - Got him.

- Antonio.

She came on to me, bro!

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

Whoa, Antonio. What the hell are you doing?

- There's a hole in your heart, Paulo.

Always has been.

You try to fill it with fame and money

and women,

but it only grows larger.

- Antonio, please.

Let's...

- Shots fired! - Let's go!

- Jesus Christ, what the hell is wrong with you?

- Drop the gun, Antonio. - Now!

- Give me the gun. That's it.

- Why are you here? What is it?

- Paulo Rocha,

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

- I'm under arrest?

He just shot at me.

Antonio, do something.

- I already have.

That's right.

When you're alone at night,

thinking about everything

that's been taken away from you,

remember it was because of me.

I did this.

- Come on. Let's go.

- Where'd you get the gun, Antonio?

- That corner of his bedroom closet.

In an old shoebox.

- How did you know it was there?

- I was the one who hid it for him.

- She is a woman, a beautiful woman!

She wanted to have sex more than I did!

- My friend betrayed me, so...

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

So you're facing four years in prison

as a registered sex offender.

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

- Hold on.

You got no witnesses

and a "victim" who testified

to being crazy in love with my client...

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

Your client admitted to having sex with a minor.

You really want to take this to trial?

- Paulo pleads sexual misconduct, no jail time.

- A misdemeanor? That's not happening.

The charge is rape three, period.

Can't swat that away, can you?

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

- And then you raped his teenage daughter!

- I need some time alone with my client.

- Be careful what you wish for.

- Paulo left that poor family shattered, huh?

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

go to counseling.

Carisi's only charging Antonio with reckless endangerment,

which means he'll get probation.

- Marcía was just trying to keep it all together.

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

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

- Well, she told Ana it was for college.

- There'll be plenty more where that came from

if she ever decides to sue.

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

- Good night.

You good?

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

- That guy was a villain all along.

- Hmm.

- Hey, I got you something.

- Why?

Oh!

- So you can learn how to kick

before you crap on my national pastime.

- Uh-huh.

- Oh, look at you. You're good.

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

Go long, then. Go on.

- Whoa, easy.

- I'ma stick to real football.

- What are you talking about? This is real fútbol.

- Mm-hmm, yeah. Good night, Velasco.

- So Paulo is gonna plead guilty to rape three.

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

and go on the registry.

- He didn't rape me. I wanted him.

- OK. I know, Ana.

I know that you think that,

but men like Paulo are experts

at grooming girls your age.

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

And there's a reason for that.

It's to keep predators away from young people.

Also to give you time, right?

A little bit of breathing room.

- Time for what?

Being bored to death?

- Time to figure things out on your own.

You know that adult men have more power.

They have more experience.

And in this case, they have more ego.

- You want to talk about ego?

Boys my age only care about getting wasted and partying.

- Well, it sounds like

you're meeting the wrong kind of boys.

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

With a little bit of time and perspective,

you're gonna look back at this

and see the whole thing so differently

and so clearly.

And I know that.

Believe me, because I've been there.

You'll see.
