1
00:00:11,551 --> 00:00:13,413
In January 2004,
2
00:00:13,517 --> 00:00:15,965
Dan Schneider launches his next big show.
3
00:00:16,068 --> 00:00:18,053
Nickelodeon presents
Drake & Josh,
4
00:00:18,137 --> 00:00:19,586
premiering January 11th.
5
00:00:19,689 --> 00:00:21,502
It's one that would go on to establish
6
00:00:21,586 --> 00:00:23,122
the next generation of Nick stars.
7
00:00:23,206 --> 00:00:24,689
He's gonna be my...
8
00:00:24,793 --> 00:00:26,655
Hug me, brother!
9
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,450
The hit Nickelodeon show,
Drake & Josh.
10
00:00:31,517 --> 00:00:33,241
If you have a tween at home,
11
00:00:33,344 --> 00:00:35,329
you're probably familiar
with the Nickelodeon show,
12
00:00:35,413 --> 00:00:36,310
Drake & Josh.
13
00:00:38,517 --> 00:00:40,053
Nickelodeon star,
Drake Bell,
14
00:00:40,137 --> 00:00:43,103
is a multi-talented singer,
writer and actor.
15
00:00:43,206 --> 00:00:44,398
I just released this single,
16
00:00:44,482 --> 00:00:46,329
it's number one on the rock
charts right now in Mexico.
17
00:00:46,413 --> 00:00:49,586
We want Drake! We want Drake!
18
00:00:49,689 --> 00:00:51,275
He's beautiful.
19
00:00:53,310 --> 00:00:54,157
You killed it, brother.
20
00:00:54,241 --> 00:00:55,467
Thank you, man.
Thank you so much.
21
00:00:55,551 --> 00:00:58,965
But it was the lead up to
this premier of Drake and Josh
22
00:00:59,068 --> 00:01:02,000
that marked one of the darkest
chapters in this story.
23
00:01:03,241 --> 00:01:06,379
Dialogue coach,
Brian Peck, is arrested.
24
00:01:07,448 --> 00:01:10,034
We were still in shock of the announcement
25
00:01:10,137 --> 00:01:12,517
that Brian will no longer
be working with us.
26
00:01:12,620 --> 00:01:14,344
We were like, "What happened?"
27
00:01:15,965 --> 00:01:18,517
And when this is announced,
28
00:01:18,620 --> 00:01:22,310
it is said that these charges
are related to a child actor.
29
00:01:22,413 --> 00:01:24,379
It certainly has all of the ingredients
30
00:01:24,482 --> 00:01:25,793
for huge scandal.
31
00:01:25,896 --> 00:01:27,068
But it wasn't.
32
00:01:31,275 --> 00:01:32,620
My name is Drake Bell,
33
00:01:32,724 --> 00:01:35,103
and I came here today to tell my story.
34
00:01:36,413 --> 00:01:40,344
Have you ever told your story
publicly before?
35
00:01:41,275 --> 00:01:43,103
I have never told my story publicly.
36
00:01:47,448 --> 00:01:48,517
No.
37
00:02:06,551 --> 00:02:08,793
I started acting
when I was five years old.
38
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,620
My mom and my dad
were going through divorce,
39
00:02:12,724 --> 00:02:15,241
and my dad was looking for something
40
00:02:15,344 --> 00:02:16,862
to do with his son.
41
00:02:18,275 --> 00:02:20,896
I love to make people laugh.
42
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,758
It was just drawn to old movies,
43
00:02:24,862 --> 00:02:26,517
anything black and white.
44
00:02:26,620 --> 00:02:28,517
I Love Lucy and Abbott and Costello
45
00:02:28,620 --> 00:02:30,413
and Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin
46
00:02:30,517 --> 00:02:33,103
and the Marx Brothers.
47
00:02:33,206 --> 00:02:36,068
I saw a magazine called
the parenting magazine,
48
00:02:36,172 --> 00:02:39,448
I started shuffling through it
and I saw an advertisement for
49
00:02:39,551 --> 00:02:41,103
the Kids Hollywood Connection.
50
00:02:41,206 --> 00:02:43,413
And I thought, "Whoa, that's something
51
00:02:43,517 --> 00:02:44,793
that Drake could do.
52
00:02:44,896 --> 00:02:47,896
Robin, my ex-wife,
she said, "Oh, that's great."
53
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,586
And I started taking him to auditions.
54
00:02:50,689 --> 00:02:53,034
Then got a manager and an agent,
55
00:02:53,137 --> 00:02:54,187
and then we were off.
56
00:02:55,310 --> 00:02:58,517
Pop, he knows everything.
57
00:02:58,620 --> 00:03:01,172
Wouldn't it be fun to fly?
58
00:03:01,275 --> 00:03:03,137
the candy bar.
59
00:03:03,241 --> 00:03:04,448
No, .
60
00:03:04,551 --> 00:03:06,000
Me just being a kid,
61
00:03:06,103 --> 00:03:09,862
and my dad not coming from
having any background it,
62
00:03:09,965 --> 00:03:12,615
we were sort of just flying
by the seat of our pants.
63
00:03:13,620 --> 00:03:15,448
He started getting some commercials
64
00:03:15,551 --> 00:03:16,778
and doing things like that.
65
00:03:16,862 --> 00:03:20,551
You can't catch
all 150 Pokemon by yourself.
66
00:03:20,655 --> 00:03:21,655
So close.
67
00:03:22,379 --> 00:03:23,779
Then we just continued
68
00:03:23,862 --> 00:03:26,344
the everyday picking him up
at 3:30 at school.
69
00:03:27,103 --> 00:03:28,137
Go out, audition,
70
00:03:28,241 --> 00:03:30,541
wouldn't get home
until 10:00, 11:00 at night.
71
00:03:30,620 --> 00:03:32,620
Go back, do the same thing the next day.
72
00:03:33,827 --> 00:03:36,586
Him and I just became so close
73
00:03:36,689 --> 00:03:38,862
that it was like it was just natural.
74
00:03:39,482 --> 00:03:40,724
And he loved it.
75
00:03:44,448 --> 00:03:45,965
As I grew older,
76
00:03:46,068 --> 00:03:50,172
I did more guest spots
on TV shows in the late 90s.
77
00:03:50,275 --> 00:03:51,778
He'd booked
Home Improvement.
78
00:03:51,862 --> 00:03:54,310
And Drake came on as
a little construction guy.
79
00:03:54,413 --> 00:03:56,931
Thank you for my swing set,
Mr. Tool Man.
80
00:03:57,034 --> 00:03:59,310
He also did an episode of Seinfeld,
81
00:03:59,413 --> 00:04:02,241
where George Costanza is
82
00:04:02,344 --> 00:04:04,172
wanting this video machine,
83
00:04:04,275 --> 00:04:06,068
and Drake's in there playing it.
84
00:04:06,172 --> 00:04:07,379
Thanks a lot.
85
00:04:07,482 --> 00:04:08,620
Eh, beat it, punk.
86
00:04:08,724 --> 00:04:12,103
And then he got the role
for Jerry Maguire.
87
00:04:12,758 --> 00:04:14,258
As he's walking down the hall,
88
00:04:14,310 --> 00:04:16,862
he turns back to Tom Cruise
89
00:04:16,965 --> 00:04:18,758
and he's supposed to flip him off.
90
00:04:18,862 --> 00:04:20,847
But Drake wouldn't even
use his middle finger.
91
00:04:20,931 --> 00:04:22,517
He used the ring finger.
92
00:04:22,620 --> 00:04:25,137
If you watch the movie, you'll see that.
93
00:04:25,241 --> 00:04:26,741
But you gotta look real close.
94
00:04:28,034 --> 00:04:31,827
And the goal, eventually,
you know, became to
95
00:04:31,931 --> 00:04:34,827
get on a TV show and...
96
00:04:35,689 --> 00:04:38,068
Be a series regular somehow, someway.
97
00:04:38,827 --> 00:04:40,172
I don't believe this.
98
00:04:40,275 --> 00:04:41,551
Look at this, Jill.
99
00:04:41,655 --> 00:04:43,344
You see, Jill, a regular student
100
00:04:43,448 --> 00:04:45,847
wouldn't give this discarded piece
of rubbish a second glance...
101
00:04:45,931 --> 00:04:47,724
Then, when we was 12,
102
00:04:47,827 --> 00:04:49,965
an audition came up for
The Amanda Show
103
00:04:50,724 --> 00:04:51,827
on Nickelodeon.
104
00:04:55,448 --> 00:04:57,896
So we're walking down
the hallway of Paramount,
105
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,034
and Drake had just done an audition.
106
00:05:01,137 --> 00:05:03,571
Dan Schneider comes out and says,
"Hey, come here, Drake."
107
00:05:03,655 --> 00:05:06,310
And he goes, "Amanda wants
you on the show."
108
00:05:06,413 --> 00:05:09,103
And then I got a call
that I had booked the show,
109
00:05:09,206 --> 00:05:10,984
and that was just
the greatest experience ever.
110
00:05:11,068 --> 00:05:13,206
I mean, I had been waiting for this moment
111
00:05:13,310 --> 00:05:15,241
to be able to go somewhere every day
112
00:05:15,344 --> 00:05:16,413
and do what I love.
113
00:05:16,517 --> 00:05:19,206
And, you know, it's Nickelodeon,
114
00:05:19,310 --> 00:05:20,827
so it's a kid's dream.
115
00:05:24,827 --> 00:05:26,088
For the first season, it was great.
116
00:05:26,172 --> 00:05:28,322
You know, we were at
the Paramount Studios.
117
00:05:29,068 --> 00:05:30,586
Any time those lights went up
118
00:05:30,689 --> 00:05:32,862
and the camera started rolling,
119
00:05:32,965 --> 00:05:34,103
it was just...
120
00:05:35,620 --> 00:05:37,137
It was like time to play.
121
00:05:39,172 --> 00:05:41,965
There were a lot of really fun
sketches and characters.
122
00:05:42,068 --> 00:05:43,724
Like, Totally Kyle
123
00:05:43,827 --> 00:05:46,627
was, like, this surfer dude,
and he'd tell like these...
124
00:05:46,896 --> 00:05:48,275
Wacky stories.
125
00:05:48,379 --> 00:05:50,655
You know, "One time, uh...
126
00:05:51,482 --> 00:05:52,793
I saw a spider...
127
00:05:52,896 --> 00:05:56,034
And I was all, "Ah! Spider!"
128
00:05:56,137 --> 00:05:58,000
And the spider was all...
129
00:05:59,172 --> 00:06:01,137
"Ah! Kyle!"
130
00:06:01,241 --> 00:06:03,896
It was just a lot of fun.
131
00:06:05,793 --> 00:06:07,793
Dan would be down on set,
132
00:06:07,896 --> 00:06:10,137
and we'd hear him laughing.
133
00:06:10,241 --> 00:06:11,741
And then he'd come up and he'd
134
00:06:11,827 --> 00:06:14,327
give us different, you know,
ways to play something
135
00:06:14,379 --> 00:06:16,034
and make it funnier.
136
00:06:16,137 --> 00:06:18,344
Everything was really, really cool.
137
00:06:19,517 --> 00:06:21,034
Until we got to...
138
00:06:22,551 --> 00:06:24,000
Nickelodeon on Sunset.
139
00:06:28,103 --> 00:06:30,310
When we moved over to Nick on Sunset
140
00:06:30,413 --> 00:06:31,862
from Paramount Studios,
141
00:06:31,965 --> 00:06:35,482
Brian Peck came in
during the second season.
142
00:06:35,586 --> 00:06:38,862
Brian was a dialogue coach
on The Amanda Show.
143
00:06:39,448 --> 00:06:41,344
And met him the first day
144
00:06:41,448 --> 00:06:43,548
the second season
when we did a table read.
145
00:06:45,034 --> 00:06:46,157
He got along with everyone.
146
00:06:46,241 --> 00:06:47,793
Everyone got along with him.
147
00:06:48,793 --> 00:06:50,053
He'd been working in the industry
148
00:06:50,137 --> 00:06:51,551
for a very, very long time.
149
00:06:53,137 --> 00:06:55,586
He knew tons about the history Hollywood,
150
00:06:55,689 --> 00:06:57,000
and that's what I loved.
151
00:06:57,103 --> 00:06:59,448
We would just rap about stuff like that.
152
00:06:59,551 --> 00:07:02,310
It's like reading a book about
the history of Hollywood.
153
00:07:05,793 --> 00:07:08,000
I was told that
Brian was a good coach
154
00:07:08,103 --> 00:07:10,226
and that he could really
get Drake some jobs.
155
00:07:10,310 --> 00:07:12,551
He worked with
Leonardo DiCaprio,
156
00:07:12,655 --> 00:07:14,758
he worked with this person, that person.
157
00:07:14,862 --> 00:07:16,517
I said, "Oh, okay."
158
00:07:16,620 --> 00:07:18,433
Well, he said, "Oh, well,
you need to come to my house
159
00:07:18,517 --> 00:07:20,793
because that's where
I give the lessons."
160
00:07:21,965 --> 00:07:26,172
So we started using him
as an acting coach.
161
00:07:27,275 --> 00:07:29,586
Everything seemed okay in the beginning.
162
00:07:30,620 --> 00:07:33,965
But I was always within
eye distance of them.
163
00:07:36,827 --> 00:07:39,482
And it was just really fun
to go to Brian's house.
164
00:07:41,034 --> 00:07:42,344
He would have parties.
165
00:07:43,172 --> 00:07:45,068
Parents, they were there.
166
00:07:45,172 --> 00:07:46,467
He had this really cool house
167
00:07:46,551 --> 00:07:49,172
with all of this
Hollywood memorabilia,
168
00:07:49,275 --> 00:07:52,275
and it was just a house
you wanted to live in.
169
00:07:53,448 --> 00:07:54,620
He just seemed like...
170
00:07:56,379 --> 00:07:57,517
Any other...
171
00:07:59,620 --> 00:08:01,172
Nice co-worker...
172
00:08:02,103 --> 00:08:03,303
You know, at that point.
173
00:08:07,793 --> 00:08:10,448
Brian and I became really close
174
00:08:10,551 --> 00:08:13,758
because we had a lot of
the same interests.
175
00:08:13,862 --> 00:08:16,448
Which, looking back,
I think that was probably
176
00:08:16,551 --> 00:08:18,000
a little calculated.
177
00:08:21,034 --> 00:08:23,053
You hear the scuttlebutt
about the business,
178
00:08:23,137 --> 00:08:25,537
and you got to watch your kids,
and this and that,
179
00:08:25,586 --> 00:08:26,931
so I was very attentive.
180
00:08:30,344 --> 00:08:32,862
All the other parents
would be seen and not heard,
181
00:08:32,965 --> 00:08:35,172
which I would never interrupt anything,
182
00:08:35,275 --> 00:08:37,620
but very rarely sat in the green room,
183
00:08:37,724 --> 00:08:39,689
I'd always be off set.
184
00:08:39,793 --> 00:08:42,443
Somewhere where I could always
keep my eyes on Drake.
185
00:08:44,413 --> 00:08:46,517
And unfortunately,
I started with seeing
186
00:08:46,620 --> 00:08:49,793
Brian just start to
hang around Drake too much.
187
00:08:49,896 --> 00:08:53,068
And it didn't set well with me.
188
00:08:55,793 --> 00:08:58,122
Drake would be in the dressing
room or something,
189
00:08:58,206 --> 00:08:59,586
and in would pop Brian.
190
00:08:59,689 --> 00:09:01,103
And, um...
191
00:09:02,551 --> 00:09:03,379
Uh...
192
00:09:03,482 --> 00:09:04,896
Just touch Drake.
193
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,517
You know, do things that...
194
00:09:06,620 --> 00:09:08,157
"Wait a second, what are you doing?
195
00:09:08,241 --> 00:09:10,034
Drake can put that on his self."
196
00:09:10,137 --> 00:09:12,337
And the thing is,
this is in front of people.
197
00:09:15,344 --> 00:09:17,551
Then he'd maybe walk over to Drake
198
00:09:17,655 --> 00:09:19,965
and be feeding him some lines or whatever,
199
00:09:20,068 --> 00:09:21,226
and put his arm around his waist,
200
00:09:21,310 --> 00:09:22,896
put his hand up on his shoulder
201
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,206
and kind of run it down his arm.
202
00:09:25,310 --> 00:09:27,241
And things like that.
203
00:09:27,344 --> 00:09:28,896
And this would happen routinely.
204
00:09:30,620 --> 00:09:32,310
Was just always uncomfortable.
205
00:09:34,758 --> 00:09:35,827
Leo, as you know,
206
00:09:35,931 --> 00:09:38,724
the latest, hottest, hunkiest
teen idol there is.
207
00:09:38,827 --> 00:09:40,379
Yeah, these muscles.
208
00:09:40,482 --> 00:09:42,655
I saw this video of Brian Peck
209
00:09:42,758 --> 00:09:44,862
on Growing Pains with Leonardo DiCaprio.
210
00:09:44,965 --> 00:09:46,413
Grabbing his shoulder,
211
00:09:46,517 --> 00:09:50,517
run it across him and going down his arms.
212
00:09:50,620 --> 00:09:53,931
That's the kind of behavior
I saw him with my son.
213
00:09:55,482 --> 00:09:57,034
Same frickin' behavior.
214
00:10:02,275 --> 00:10:04,724
So I went to production
215
00:10:04,827 --> 00:10:07,827
and said, you know, "I really
am very uncomfortable
216
00:10:07,931 --> 00:10:10,103
with this guy, Brian Peck...
217
00:10:11,137 --> 00:10:12,689
Always being around my son."
218
00:10:12,793 --> 00:10:15,068
I go, "I don't see anything abnormal,
219
00:10:15,172 --> 00:10:16,379
but it just doesn't...
220
00:10:16,482 --> 00:10:18,068
I don't have a good feeling."
221
00:10:18,172 --> 00:10:19,984
And she just goes, "Oh, well, I don't know
222
00:10:20,068 --> 00:10:21,931
if you knew it or not, but he's gay.
223
00:10:22,034 --> 00:10:25,034
Maybe you're just homophobic,
and you just...
224
00:10:25,137 --> 00:10:26,571
You know, you just don't understand
225
00:10:26,655 --> 00:10:28,448
that he's a touchy-feely guy."
226
00:10:29,448 --> 00:10:30,586
So I said, "Okay."
227
00:10:30,689 --> 00:10:33,068
And then it just... it just...
228
00:10:33,965 --> 00:10:36,137
Kept not setting well with me.
229
00:10:36,241 --> 00:10:38,310
So I told people on the set.
230
00:10:39,344 --> 00:10:41,724
And I was ostracized.
231
00:10:43,241 --> 00:10:45,724
And so I backed off.
232
00:10:48,620 --> 00:10:51,931
Brian was still my friend,
everything was fine.
233
00:10:52,034 --> 00:10:54,784
I didn't think anything of
anything that was happening.
234
00:10:55,862 --> 00:10:58,034
In hindsight,
I should've been able to...
235
00:10:59,172 --> 00:11:02,379
See, but as a kid, you have no clue.
236
00:11:02,482 --> 00:11:04,034
My dad saw it a mile away.
237
00:11:14,482 --> 00:11:16,620
During the Amanda Show,
238
00:11:16,724 --> 00:11:18,965
we were still working on the next idea
239
00:11:19,068 --> 00:11:22,724
for what would be the Drake & Josh show.
240
00:11:22,827 --> 00:11:25,177
We were working on a sketch
for The Amanda Show.
241
00:11:25,413 --> 00:11:26,310
Hey, shrimp.
242
00:11:26,413 --> 00:11:29,758
Josh and I get into, like, a tussle
243
00:11:29,862 --> 00:11:31,965
over this... this...
244
00:11:32,068 --> 00:11:35,103
Grilled shrimp that had landed
from the sky.
245
00:11:35,206 --> 00:11:36,000
Give it!
246
00:11:37,413 --> 00:11:39,379
No! No! I want it!
247
00:11:39,482 --> 00:11:41,344
One of the writers of The Amanda Show
248
00:11:41,448 --> 00:11:42,536
had leaned over to
Dan and said,
249
00:11:42,620 --> 00:11:44,467
"Hey, you know,
Nickelodeon's looking for
250
00:11:44,551 --> 00:11:46,482
some sort of new buddy comedy."
251
00:11:46,586 --> 00:11:48,226
And he pointed to the monitor and he goes,
252
00:11:48,310 --> 00:11:49,467
"There's your buddies right there."
253
00:11:49,551 --> 00:11:50,689
I want the shrimp!
254
00:11:50,793 --> 00:11:52,593
- I will get you--
- I want the shrimp!
255
00:11:54,275 --> 00:11:56,827
Dan took me out to lunch one day.
256
00:11:56,931 --> 00:11:58,364
We went to a place called Off Vine,
257
00:11:58,448 --> 00:12:00,137
right next to Nick on Sunset.
258
00:12:01,862 --> 00:12:04,019
He was saying, you know,
"I'm coming up with this idea
259
00:12:04,103 --> 00:12:05,241
for you and Josh.
260
00:12:05,344 --> 00:12:07,053
Would you be interested in doing that?"
261
00:12:07,137 --> 00:12:08,413
We couldn't believe it.
262
00:12:08,517 --> 00:12:10,398
I mean, me and my dad
just drove home just going,
263
00:12:10,482 --> 00:12:12,896
"What in the world?
Like, this is...
264
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,172
This is what
I've always dreamed of."
265
00:12:17,827 --> 00:12:18,927
We were excited.
266
00:12:20,827 --> 00:12:23,793
But that's right when Brian
had got his hooks in.
267
00:12:23,896 --> 00:12:26,096
He's the one that started
telling Drake that
268
00:12:26,137 --> 00:12:27,295
I shouldn't be his manager.
269
00:12:27,379 --> 00:12:29,931
And I confronted Brian about that.
270
00:12:30,034 --> 00:12:33,284
And he goes, "Well, parents shouldn't
be their child's managers."
271
00:12:33,931 --> 00:12:35,689
And I just blew it off.
272
00:12:35,793 --> 00:12:38,193
Because I don't think
that was ever gonna happen.
273
00:12:40,068 --> 00:12:41,950
So Brian started integrating himself
274
00:12:42,034 --> 00:12:43,517
into my life pretty heavily.
275
00:12:43,620 --> 00:12:45,103
He would come to my concerts.
276
00:12:48,517 --> 00:12:51,167
And that's when it started
to get a little bit, um...
277
00:12:53,137 --> 00:12:55,620
A little bit more
extracurricular than normal.
278
00:12:55,724 --> 00:12:58,103
Like, Dan might have come to a concert
279
00:12:58,206 --> 00:13:01,068
if it was really close to him.
280
00:13:02,103 --> 00:13:04,655
But Brian would drive to San Diego
281
00:13:04,758 --> 00:13:07,034
to see a concert
I was playing.
282
00:13:09,172 --> 00:13:11,517
At that time, totally normal to me.
283
00:13:13,620 --> 00:13:16,655
Then there was a time
that I set up a concert
284
00:13:16,758 --> 00:13:20,655
at Strawberry Festival
for Drake and his band.
285
00:13:20,758 --> 00:13:23,896
And who pops up? Brian Peck.
286
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,655
Who pops up? Brian's friends.
287
00:13:26,758 --> 00:13:27,812
And they're following Drake
288
00:13:27,896 --> 00:13:30,241
all through the Strawberry Festival.
289
00:13:30,344 --> 00:13:32,044
And I'm just going, "What is this?"
290
00:13:33,551 --> 00:13:36,019
It was my first band
that I'd ever played with.
291
00:13:36,103 --> 00:13:37,068
Brand new.
292
00:13:37,172 --> 00:13:39,000
Just exciting to be playing live,
293
00:13:39,103 --> 00:13:41,088
and it was just like, "My friends
are coming to my shows."
294
00:13:41,172 --> 00:13:42,068
Like, "Cool."
295
00:13:44,241 --> 00:13:47,413
And then there was
a birthday party for Drake.
296
00:13:48,344 --> 00:13:51,241
And Brian wanted to have it at his house.
297
00:13:51,344 --> 00:13:53,295
And I said, "Whoa, Brian,
I don't want Drake
298
00:13:53,379 --> 00:13:55,379
having his birthday party at your house."
299
00:13:57,758 --> 00:13:59,551
It was my 15th birthday.
300
00:14:00,793 --> 00:14:01,931
Brian had suggested,
301
00:14:02,034 --> 00:14:05,379
"Oh, hey, you can perform,
and everybody can come."
302
00:14:05,482 --> 00:14:07,931
I lived in Orange County
which was an hour away,
303
00:14:08,034 --> 00:14:09,881
and everyone I wanted
to come to my birthday
304
00:14:09,965 --> 00:14:12,689
was who I worked with on the show.
305
00:14:12,793 --> 00:14:14,517
And so it made it easy.
306
00:14:14,620 --> 00:14:16,379
It just didn't seem like something
307
00:14:16,482 --> 00:14:18,275
that was that out of the ordinary.
308
00:14:19,931 --> 00:14:22,137
Then after I got his
presents out of the car,
309
00:14:22,241 --> 00:14:23,379
I looked in a bag
310
00:14:23,482 --> 00:14:25,827
and I saw these, um...
311
00:14:25,931 --> 00:14:27,965
Birthday cards from
Brian's friends
312
00:14:28,068 --> 00:14:29,655
that were at the party,
313
00:14:29,758 --> 00:14:31,655
and they were really inappropriate.
314
00:14:31,758 --> 00:14:33,862
They just had adult things in them,
315
00:14:33,965 --> 00:14:35,137
adult descriptions.
316
00:14:35,241 --> 00:14:37,137
And I thought, "Woah, this is..."
317
00:14:37,241 --> 00:14:38,881
And then I said, "Drake, what is this?"
318
00:14:38,965 --> 00:14:41,715
He goes, "I don't know.
I didn't even know I have those."
319
00:14:42,310 --> 00:14:44,379
And so we just left it at that.
320
00:14:46,344 --> 00:14:48,137
The situation with Brian
321
00:14:48,241 --> 00:14:49,791
is it had all been building up.
322
00:14:51,586 --> 00:14:55,482
And so my dad started
making it very difficult
323
00:14:55,586 --> 00:14:57,413
for Brian to be around me.
324
00:14:58,620 --> 00:15:00,770
I think Brian got a sense that my dad was...
325
00:15:01,379 --> 00:15:02,275
On the watch.
326
00:15:02,379 --> 00:15:04,724
And so he started to really drive a wedge
327
00:15:04,827 --> 00:15:06,000
between my dad and me.
328
00:15:06,827 --> 00:15:08,586
He started talking about
329
00:15:08,689 --> 00:15:10,931
how my dad's stealing my money,
330
00:15:11,034 --> 00:15:13,103
nobody likes that my dad's on set,
331
00:15:13,206 --> 00:15:14,862
he's a real problem.
332
00:15:17,172 --> 00:15:19,551
So he just started making me believe that
333
00:15:19,655 --> 00:15:21,551
he was horrible for my career,
334
00:15:21,655 --> 00:15:24,355
I wasn't gonna be able to move
forward with him in it.
335
00:15:25,482 --> 00:15:27,758
And coming from someone like Brian,
336
00:15:27,862 --> 00:15:30,379
I was believing it because he's...
337
00:15:31,655 --> 00:15:32,950
Been in this business for so long
338
00:15:33,034 --> 00:15:34,931
and he must know more than us.
339
00:15:35,034 --> 00:15:36,812
Also because I was spending so much time
340
00:15:36,896 --> 00:15:40,034
more so around him
than I was really my dad.
341
00:15:40,137 --> 00:15:43,758
I think Drake was so
distraught over everything
342
00:15:43,862 --> 00:15:45,413
that he avoided me.
343
00:15:45,517 --> 00:15:46,965
Which is understandable.
344
00:15:47,068 --> 00:15:49,916
He was under a lot of, "I don't
want my dad to be my manager.
345
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:51,300
I feel guilty about that."
346
00:15:52,068 --> 00:15:53,241
And my mom and my dad
347
00:15:53,344 --> 00:15:56,103
had a very tumultuous relationship.
348
00:15:56,206 --> 00:15:57,482
They did not get along.
349
00:15:57,586 --> 00:16:01,241
And I think Brian saw that.
350
00:16:02,620 --> 00:16:05,758
So Brian really started
getting into my mom's mind
351
00:16:05,862 --> 00:16:08,310
and telling her the same things
352
00:16:08,413 --> 00:16:09,313
he was telling me.
353
00:16:11,482 --> 00:16:13,000
He found an attorney
354
00:16:13,103 --> 00:16:15,586
to find out about Drake's
financial situation.
355
00:16:17,241 --> 00:16:19,891
There was never
any mishandling of any funds.
356
00:16:19,896 --> 00:16:22,689
But it was like an army against my dad.
357
00:16:24,586 --> 00:16:28,206
After that, Drake had stayed
with his mom for about a week,
358
00:16:28,310 --> 00:16:31,551
and then I got a phone call from his mom.
359
00:16:31,655 --> 00:16:34,505
Saying, "Drake doesn't want you
to be his manager anymore."
360
00:16:37,448 --> 00:16:39,034
And my dad was like,
361
00:16:40,655 --> 00:16:42,155
"Is this what you want to do?"
362
00:16:43,724 --> 00:16:45,103
At that time,
363
00:16:45,206 --> 00:16:47,344
I said, "I want what my son wants."
364
00:16:47,448 --> 00:16:49,758
It's killing me, it's hurting me...
365
00:16:56,758 --> 00:16:58,862
It's breaking my heart,
366
00:16:58,965 --> 00:17:00,931
but I want to do what Drake wants."
367
00:17:01,517 --> 00:17:04,103
So, I said, "Okay."
368
00:17:06,137 --> 00:17:10,068
Our relationship was
just completely eviscerated.
369
00:17:12,137 --> 00:17:13,709
I think he felt like he was going through
370
00:17:13,793 --> 00:17:15,743
the divorce with my mom all over again.
371
00:17:16,275 --> 00:17:19,413
And fighting for me again,
372
00:17:19,517 --> 00:17:20,827
you know, just like he did
373
00:17:20,931 --> 00:17:23,206
when I was five years old, you know?
374
00:17:23,310 --> 00:17:24,536
Oh, man, this will make me cry,
375
00:17:24,620 --> 00:17:26,020
thinking about it like that.
376
00:17:26,413 --> 00:17:27,344
Um...
377
00:17:32,103 --> 00:17:34,448
I broke down and cried.
378
00:17:37,448 --> 00:17:39,379
I knew that was gonna
379
00:17:39,482 --> 00:17:41,724
sever me and my son's relationship.
380
00:17:41,827 --> 00:17:43,477
And that I wouldn't be seeing him.
381
00:17:44,103 --> 00:17:45,448
And, uh,
382
00:17:45,551 --> 00:17:47,689
it wasn't like he was five years old,
383
00:17:47,793 --> 00:17:49,931
where I could say,
"Give me my visitation."
384
00:17:50,034 --> 00:17:53,586
Because Drake was old enough
to make his own decisions.
385
00:17:53,689 --> 00:17:56,551
So I turned her over,
you know, the bank account,
386
00:17:56,655 --> 00:17:59,689
I turned her over all kinds of...
387
00:18:00,724 --> 00:18:01,974
Paperwork that she needed
388
00:18:02,068 --> 00:18:03,896
to be able to handle
Drake's career.
389
00:18:04,551 --> 00:18:06,517
But I did say to her,
390
00:18:06,620 --> 00:18:08,433
and I said this to her in person, I said,
391
00:18:08,517 --> 00:18:09,413
"But...
392
00:18:10,241 --> 00:18:11,965
You never...
393
00:18:12,068 --> 00:18:14,000
Ever leave Drake alone with Brian Peck,
394
00:18:14,103 --> 00:18:16,000
and you never let him be around him
395
00:18:16,103 --> 00:18:18,344
unsupervised, period, whatsoever.
396
00:18:20,241 --> 00:18:24,896
And Brian just absolutely tricked her.
397
00:18:28,413 --> 00:18:30,502
He knew that I loved going to Disneyland.
398
00:18:30,586 --> 00:18:33,191
He would say, "Hey, me and my friends
are going to Disneyland
399
00:18:33,275 --> 00:18:34,433
you know, would you like to come?"
400
00:18:34,517 --> 00:18:36,827
And we'd go spend the whole day there
401
00:18:36,931 --> 00:18:38,241
and have a great time.
402
00:18:41,724 --> 00:18:45,000
This point, production of
The Amanda Show was over.
403
00:18:45,103 --> 00:18:47,803
There was all this just time
of, like, floating around.
404
00:18:48,551 --> 00:18:51,001
We hadn't gone into production
for Drake and Josh.
405
00:18:52,241 --> 00:18:54,241
And we hadn't shot the pilot.
406
00:18:55,206 --> 00:18:57,241
There was a huge gap.
407
00:18:58,758 --> 00:19:01,000
And then, very, very quickly,
408
00:19:01,103 --> 00:19:03,689
Brian put himself in the position
409
00:19:03,793 --> 00:19:05,758
of what my dad was doing my whole life.
410
00:19:08,172 --> 00:19:10,517
My mom didn't want to drive to LA.
411
00:19:10,620 --> 00:19:12,034
She didn't like driving.
412
00:19:12,137 --> 00:19:14,587
So Brian would come
and pick me up for auditions.
413
00:19:16,896 --> 00:19:19,724
I would end up staying the night
414
00:19:19,827 --> 00:19:21,896
because, well, I lived in Orange County
415
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,931
and I would have auditions,
and then it would be,
416
00:19:26,034 --> 00:19:29,724
you know, easier to drive me
home the next day
417
00:19:29,827 --> 00:19:33,206
instead of driving me home and
getting me home at midnight,
418
00:19:33,310 --> 00:19:35,310
or whatever...
Whatever excuse, you know,
419
00:19:35,931 --> 00:19:36,896
he came up with.
420
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,586
And that's the way it happened, uh...
421
00:19:41,103 --> 00:19:42,137
For quite a while.
422
00:19:44,103 --> 00:19:46,862
He had... he had pretty much
423
00:19:46,965 --> 00:19:49,115
worked his way into
every aspect of my life.
424
00:19:55,620 --> 00:19:57,720
Everything changed with Brian one morning.
425
00:20:00,172 --> 00:20:01,827
It just... everything...
426
00:20:08,344 --> 00:20:09,689
I knew that everything...
427
00:20:09,793 --> 00:20:12,398
I knew that my life was gonna be
absolutely, completely different
428
00:20:12,482 --> 00:20:14,103
from that point on.
429
00:20:25,517 --> 00:20:28,267
I was sleeping on the couch
where I would usually sleep.
430
00:20:30,413 --> 00:20:31,517
And, uh...
431
00:20:33,241 --> 00:20:34,655
I woke up to him...
432
00:20:36,344 --> 00:20:37,379
Uh...
433
00:20:39,275 --> 00:20:40,413
I... I...
434
00:20:40,517 --> 00:20:41,812
I opened my eyes, I woke up.
435
00:20:41,896 --> 00:20:43,344
And he was, uh...
436
00:20:45,724 --> 00:20:47,224
He was sexually assaulting me.
437
00:20:48,931 --> 00:20:50,000
And...
438
00:20:53,275 --> 00:20:57,620
I froze and was in complete shock
439
00:20:57,724 --> 00:20:59,241
and had no idea what...
440
00:21:00,068 --> 00:21:01,103
To do
441
00:21:02,172 --> 00:21:03,724
or how to react.
442
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,275
And...
443
00:21:12,448 --> 00:21:14,793
I had no idea how to
get out of the situation.
444
00:21:17,620 --> 00:21:19,379
I couldn't run outside, have my--
445
00:21:19,482 --> 00:21:21,206
I mean-- I just--
446
00:21:21,310 --> 00:21:22,916
You know, what am I gonna
call my mom and be like,
447
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,191
"Hey, this just happened.
Can you come and pick me up?
448
00:21:25,275 --> 00:21:26,725
I'll just sit here and wait."
449
00:21:28,689 --> 00:21:30,655
I had no car, I didn't drive.
450
00:21:33,413 --> 00:21:34,896
I was 15 at this time.
451
00:21:42,896 --> 00:21:43,965
And so...
452
00:21:45,586 --> 00:21:47,034
It just became this...
453
00:21:50,620 --> 00:21:52,931
This secret that I had held onto.
454
00:21:53,758 --> 00:21:56,068
And it became...
455
00:21:58,620 --> 00:22:01,743
You know, I couldn't say I no longer
wanted to go to Brian's house,
456
00:22:01,827 --> 00:22:02,950
because then they're gonna
raise questions,
457
00:22:03,034 --> 00:22:04,295
"Well, why don't you want
to go to Brian's?"
458
00:22:04,379 --> 00:22:06,279
And then, you know, he's so apologetic,
459
00:22:06,310 --> 00:22:07,640
"Oh, this will never happen again,
460
00:22:07,724 --> 00:22:09,379
I'm so sorry," you know--
461
00:22:09,482 --> 00:22:11,034
"I don't know what got into me."
462
00:22:11,137 --> 00:22:12,931
And, "I crossed the line."
463
00:22:13,034 --> 00:22:14,862
And, "This will never happen again."
464
00:22:15,896 --> 00:22:16,827
Um...
465
00:22:17,862 --> 00:22:19,000
And, well...
466
00:22:20,827 --> 00:22:23,379
He figured out how to...
467
00:22:23,482 --> 00:22:26,655
Convince my mom and everyone around to...
468
00:22:27,482 --> 00:22:28,448
Have me--
469
00:22:28,551 --> 00:22:30,053
You know, anytime I would
have an audition,
470
00:22:30,137 --> 00:22:32,862
or any time I need to work
on dialogue or anything,
471
00:22:33,862 --> 00:22:36,482
I somehow ended up back at Brian's house.
472
00:22:40,310 --> 00:22:43,068
And it just got worse
473
00:22:43,172 --> 00:22:44,827
and worse and worse...
474
00:22:46,034 --> 00:22:47,275
And, um...
475
00:22:49,137 --> 00:22:50,827
And worse.
476
00:22:53,172 --> 00:22:54,827
And...
477
00:22:56,827 --> 00:22:58,689
I was just trapped.
478
00:22:58,793 --> 00:22:59,896
And I didn't...
479
00:23:02,310 --> 00:23:03,379
I had...
480
00:23:04,689 --> 00:23:05,862
I had no way out.
481
00:23:14,689 --> 00:23:16,931
The abuse was extensive.
482
00:23:19,862 --> 00:23:21,931
And it got, uh...
483
00:23:24,862 --> 00:23:25,896
Pretty brutal.
484
00:23:27,103 --> 00:23:29,034
Pretty brutal. Um...
485
00:23:36,379 --> 00:23:37,586
I don't know, uh...
486
00:23:40,379 --> 00:23:41,979
I really don't know how to, uh...
487
00:23:43,586 --> 00:23:44,586
Um...
488
00:23:48,379 --> 00:23:51,448
Elaborate on that on camera, really.
489
00:23:53,448 --> 00:23:55,571
Whatever you feel comfortable,
or you think would--
490
00:23:55,655 --> 00:23:57,364
- Why don't you do this?
- Yeah.
491
00:23:57,448 --> 00:23:59,019
I don't you think of the worst stuff
492
00:23:59,103 --> 00:24:00,724
that someone could do to somebody
493
00:24:00,827 --> 00:24:02,000
as a sexual assault,
494
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,600
and that'll answer your question.
495
00:24:11,655 --> 00:24:13,205
I don't know how else to put it.
496
00:24:18,758 --> 00:24:20,137
It was not a...
497
00:24:21,379 --> 00:24:23,310
One-time thing, it was not a...
498
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,862
"Oops, I...
499
00:24:26,965 --> 00:24:29,000
No, it was-- I mean--
500
00:24:31,413 --> 00:24:33,103
Ah!
501
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:55,689
I often look back at that time
502
00:24:55,793 --> 00:24:58,517
and wonder how in the world I survived.
503
00:25:02,448 --> 00:25:04,827
I remember all of the abusive events.
504
00:25:07,758 --> 00:25:09,413
But...
505
00:25:09,517 --> 00:25:12,931
Everything outside of that
is very blurry to me.
506
00:25:13,034 --> 00:25:16,000
Which is a bummer because I, uh...
507
00:25:20,172 --> 00:25:23,310
I experienced a lot of
great things in my life,
508
00:25:23,413 --> 00:25:26,000
in my career during all this time.
509
00:25:27,896 --> 00:25:29,862
But it was so overshadowed and...
510
00:25:31,241 --> 00:25:33,896
And ruined by
511
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,850
what I was dealing with on the inside.
512
00:25:36,413 --> 00:25:38,517
Um, that...
513
00:25:40,586 --> 00:25:42,655
It made it really hard for me.
514
00:25:44,965 --> 00:25:47,172
I didn't feel like anyone knew anything.
515
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,655
I was...
516
00:25:51,758 --> 00:25:54,896
Under the impression that this
was just a big, giant secret.
517
00:25:58,206 --> 00:26:00,586
I just hoped and prayed
518
00:26:00,689 --> 00:26:03,275
that one day it would just stop.
519
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:07,400
And then I got a girlfriend,
520
00:26:07,413 --> 00:26:09,896
and I was basically
spending all of my time
521
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,050
at my girlfriend's house because I felt...
522
00:26:13,241 --> 00:26:14,482
So safe there.
523
00:26:15,344 --> 00:26:16,724
And her mom...
524
00:26:18,241 --> 00:26:19,791
It took her about six seconds...
525
00:26:21,137 --> 00:26:22,103
To, uh...
526
00:26:23,448 --> 00:26:25,048
To catch on to what was going on.
527
00:26:27,068 --> 00:26:30,000
There was this time
that I was at her house,
528
00:26:30,103 --> 00:26:33,896
and Brian had planned
to take me to Disneyland.
529
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:35,329
I was like, "This is not happening.
530
00:26:35,413 --> 00:26:36,551
I'm not going...
531
00:26:37,068 --> 00:26:37,965
"I don't-- No."
532
00:26:40,103 --> 00:26:42,931
And Brian's calling
my cell phone non-stop.
533
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:45,310
I was just ignoring it.
534
00:26:47,862 --> 00:26:50,931
Well, he started calling
my girlfriend's house.
535
00:26:53,103 --> 00:26:55,965
Non-stop.
536
00:26:56,068 --> 00:27:01,103
I mean, over and over and over and over.
537
00:27:02,413 --> 00:27:03,713
Finally, her mom answered.
538
00:27:04,413 --> 00:27:07,275
And brought it to me.
539
00:27:07,379 --> 00:27:09,896
And he's like, "What are
you doing? We had plans."
540
00:27:11,034 --> 00:27:12,931
People are watching me on the phone,
541
00:27:13,034 --> 00:27:16,896
so I just played it off like,
"I must've made double plans,
542
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,034
but I'm... I'm gonna hang here tonight.
543
00:27:20,586 --> 00:27:22,827
And he got really upset.
544
00:27:24,068 --> 00:27:25,157
And I hung up the phone.
545
00:27:27,034 --> 00:27:29,413
And he started calling back
and calling back.
546
00:27:32,517 --> 00:27:34,965
My girlfriends mom said, "Hey, Drake,
547
00:27:35,068 --> 00:27:37,368
can I talk to you
in the kitchen for a second?"
548
00:27:38,241 --> 00:27:41,793
She shuts the door behind me
so it's just the two of us.
549
00:27:44,724 --> 00:27:46,224
She's like, "What's going on?"
550
00:27:47,965 --> 00:27:49,000
And I go...
551
00:27:49,827 --> 00:27:51,758
"Oh, yeah, Brian, we had plans"
552
00:27:51,862 --> 00:27:53,162
She goes, "No, no, no, no.
553
00:27:53,689 --> 00:27:55,275
A 40-something year old man
554
00:27:55,379 --> 00:27:58,517
does not call my daughter's boyfriend
555
00:27:58,620 --> 00:27:59,793
like that.
556
00:28:05,896 --> 00:28:08,793
My girlfriends mom asked,
"What's going on?"
557
00:28:10,413 --> 00:28:11,965
And I go...
558
00:28:12,068 --> 00:28:15,448
"Oh, you know, he is kind of strange.
559
00:28:15,551 --> 00:28:17,088
I'm trying to distance myself from him
560
00:28:17,172 --> 00:28:19,622
because, like, things
are getting a little weird."
561
00:28:20,137 --> 00:28:23,206
So, she took matters into her own hands.
562
00:28:23,310 --> 00:28:25,137
She called my mom, she's like,
563
00:28:25,241 --> 00:28:29,517
"I'm taking Drake to see
our therapist tomorrow
564
00:28:29,620 --> 00:28:31,310
because something...
565
00:28:31,413 --> 00:28:33,413
Something is going on.
566
00:28:33,517 --> 00:28:35,551
And we need to figure it out because...
567
00:28:36,724 --> 00:28:39,310
Seems like he's in quite a bit of danger."
568
00:28:41,241 --> 00:28:43,041
I'm so I went to the therapist and...
569
00:28:44,551 --> 00:28:46,655
I just felt so scared to say anything,
570
00:28:46,758 --> 00:28:47,778
I didn't know how to explain it.
571
00:28:47,862 --> 00:28:50,212
I mean, I still don't.
I mean, I'm still like...
572
00:28:50,241 --> 00:28:51,391
You know, I've never...
573
00:28:52,482 --> 00:28:54,103
Talked about this outside of...
574
00:28:55,482 --> 00:28:57,103
Therapy, which...
575
00:28:58,068 --> 00:28:59,000
And, uh...
576
00:29:00,586 --> 00:29:01,689
Um...
577
00:29:04,551 --> 00:29:06,172
And I just... I just said,
578
00:29:06,275 --> 00:29:08,482
"Nah, you know, it's...
Everything's...
579
00:29:08,586 --> 00:29:09,931
Everything's normal.
580
00:29:10,034 --> 00:29:13,034
It's just, you know, things are
getting a little weird, but...
581
00:29:13,206 --> 00:29:15,206
But nothing's happened." Uh...
582
00:29:15,310 --> 00:29:18,586
You know, "Good thing we caught
it when we did," you know.
583
00:29:22,689 --> 00:29:24,793
And then I realized...
584
00:29:25,965 --> 00:29:28,365
It was just so calculated,
you know, it's just...
585
00:29:29,689 --> 00:29:31,089
I was like, "Wow, you got...
586
00:29:32,482 --> 00:29:34,724
You moved all the pieces into place."
587
00:29:38,206 --> 00:29:41,137
The whole thing was mental manipulation.
588
00:29:41,241 --> 00:29:44,000
He was so integrated in all of these
589
00:29:44,689 --> 00:29:45,789
different productions,
590
00:29:45,862 --> 00:29:47,674
and the knew these
directors and these producers,
591
00:29:47,758 --> 00:29:48,862
that if I...
592
00:29:49,862 --> 00:29:50,965
Were to...
593
00:29:51,896 --> 00:29:53,241
Say anything or...
594
00:29:54,310 --> 00:29:55,379
Do anything...
595
00:29:56,344 --> 00:29:57,241
That...
596
00:29:58,379 --> 00:30:00,620
He had the ability to basically...
597
00:30:01,620 --> 00:30:02,709
Go, "You're never gonna work
with this person,
598
00:30:02,793 --> 00:30:04,843
you're never gonna work with that person."
599
00:30:04,965 --> 00:30:08,793
So, it was me believing that I would
600
00:30:08,896 --> 00:30:11,137
never be able to do this ever again.
601
00:30:11,241 --> 00:30:12,491
And I would have to go...
602
00:30:13,724 --> 00:30:15,689
Figure out how to wax surfboards or...
603
00:30:16,551 --> 00:30:17,862
You know?
604
00:30:19,206 --> 00:30:22,448
I didn't want to risk that.
605
00:30:22,551 --> 00:30:24,901
You know, I was doing
what I loved to do and...
606
00:30:26,034 --> 00:30:28,206
And so I just kept it inside.
607
00:30:34,551 --> 00:30:37,655
We ended up having to re-shoot
the pilot for Drake & Josh.
608
00:30:37,758 --> 00:30:40,344
And Brian was trying to get me
609
00:30:41,103 --> 00:30:43,517
to convince Dan
610
00:30:43,620 --> 00:30:46,586
that he should be the dad on the show.
611
00:30:48,137 --> 00:30:49,379
And...
612
00:30:51,068 --> 00:30:54,827
I was like, "That is not gonna happen.
613
00:30:54,931 --> 00:30:57,031
You're not coming anywhere near the show."
614
00:30:58,862 --> 00:30:59,931
And then...
615
00:31:03,103 --> 00:31:05,793
One day, I was just
on the phone to my mom.
616
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,482
I just exploded.
617
00:31:11,172 --> 00:31:13,034
I have no idea what provoked it,
618
00:31:13,137 --> 00:31:15,241
I have no idea what happened.
619
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:17,172
But I just...
620
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,620
Screamed into the phone...
621
00:31:21,655 --> 00:31:22,758
Everything...
622
00:31:24,103 --> 00:31:25,603
That had been happening to me.
623
00:31:27,310 --> 00:31:29,344
My mom immediately called the police,
624
00:31:29,448 --> 00:31:32,482
and within I don't know how much time,
625
00:31:33,137 --> 00:31:34,137
I was sitting in...
626
00:31:35,103 --> 00:31:37,275
The dining room of my mom's house
627
00:31:38,275 --> 00:31:40,413
with a few detectives and my mom,
628
00:31:40,517 --> 00:31:41,817
being asked what happened.
629
00:31:46,551 --> 00:31:48,482
The investigation was pretty brutal.
630
00:31:49,448 --> 00:31:50,931
I had to, uh...
631
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:53,137
Be, uh...
632
00:31:55,655 --> 00:31:57,413
Excruciatingly detailed...
633
00:31:59,517 --> 00:32:00,793
Uh...
634
00:32:00,896 --> 00:32:02,758
About every single...
635
00:32:03,862 --> 00:32:05,758
Thing-- time that it had happened...
636
00:32:07,103 --> 00:32:08,827
With two absolute strangers.
637
00:32:12,551 --> 00:32:13,931
The worst part was
638
00:32:14,034 --> 00:32:15,758
I had to make a phone call to Brian
639
00:32:15,862 --> 00:32:18,034
and get him to admit...
640
00:32:19,034 --> 00:32:20,310
Um...
641
00:32:20,413 --> 00:32:21,482
What he had done.
642
00:32:23,413 --> 00:32:25,310
And so...
643
00:32:25,413 --> 00:32:29,482
There I was in this room
of my mom's house.
644
00:32:31,379 --> 00:32:33,310
It looked like a movie.
645
00:32:33,413 --> 00:32:37,241
They had old-style tape recorder...
646
00:32:37,344 --> 00:32:41,172
Attached to a black phone, landline.
647
00:32:42,206 --> 00:32:44,156
You know, they had their headphones on.
648
00:32:44,896 --> 00:32:46,482
I took a couple of times.
649
00:32:48,172 --> 00:32:49,344
Then I had called...
650
00:32:50,413 --> 00:32:51,379
He answers.
651
00:32:52,448 --> 00:32:53,344
So I said...
652
00:32:54,551 --> 00:32:56,501
"You know, I'm really struggling with...
653
00:32:57,586 --> 00:32:59,517
With this stuff now and..."
654
00:32:59,620 --> 00:33:02,827
Like, "I'm so torn up,
I'm so broken
655
00:33:02,931 --> 00:33:04,827
I... I can't...
656
00:33:06,137 --> 00:33:08,793
I'm so emotionally distressed right now."
657
00:33:08,896 --> 00:33:11,310
And, "Why... Why did...
658
00:33:11,413 --> 00:33:12,620
Why did this happen?"
659
00:33:13,482 --> 00:33:14,413
You know?
660
00:33:19,793 --> 00:33:23,241
He just started a full-on confession.
661
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:25,896
And then...
662
00:33:27,068 --> 00:33:29,310
He kept asking me over and over again.
663
00:33:29,413 --> 00:33:31,113
He's like, "Are we being recorded?"
664
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,793
It was just all these
mixed emotions of... of...
665
00:33:35,896 --> 00:33:38,379
"Thank God. Finally."
666
00:33:39,413 --> 00:33:40,517
This...
667
00:33:40,620 --> 00:33:43,172
Finally, this gets handled.
668
00:33:43,275 --> 00:33:45,896
Finally, something happens to this person.
669
00:33:51,172 --> 00:33:52,724
I was like, "What next?
670
00:33:52,827 --> 00:33:54,034
What next?" You know?
671
00:33:56,448 --> 00:33:58,048
"Am I gonna get to make my show?
672
00:33:58,068 --> 00:33:59,620
Is this gonna be public?"
673
00:34:02,310 --> 00:34:03,758
I was losing my hair.
674
00:34:03,862 --> 00:34:06,620
I had these big scabs on my head.
675
00:34:06,724 --> 00:34:07,916
I was going to the doctor,
676
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,896
and the doctor was asking me,
677
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,571
"You know, all of your vitals are fine,
678
00:34:11,655 --> 00:34:12,827
but how is the...
679
00:34:14,379 --> 00:34:16,129
How's your stress level these days?"
680
00:34:16,965 --> 00:34:18,551
I'm like, "It's very high."
681
00:34:22,137 --> 00:34:24,310
And then Brian got arrested...
682
00:34:27,206 --> 00:34:31,827
For doing really, really
horrendous things to me.
683
00:34:45,758 --> 00:34:48,258
These emotions that we're
going through me were...
684
00:34:48,862 --> 00:34:51,448
It's... It's relief and fear.
685
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:54,724
You know, "Am I...
686
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,310
Going to survive this?"
687
00:35:01,137 --> 00:35:03,137
That's when my phone started blowing up.
688
00:35:03,965 --> 00:35:05,815
"Did you hear what happened to Brian?"
689
00:35:06,275 --> 00:35:10,068
I just hope that nobody knew it was me.
690
00:35:19,172 --> 00:35:22,000
After Brian was arrested,
691
00:35:22,862 --> 00:35:25,344
Dan called and asked me...
692
00:35:26,689 --> 00:35:29,275
"Does this have anything to do with you?"
693
00:35:31,689 --> 00:35:33,586
I was close enough with Dan
694
00:35:33,689 --> 00:35:36,482
that I was like,
"Yeah, man, like, this is...
695
00:35:37,379 --> 00:35:38,879
This was what he's been doing.
696
00:35:39,965 --> 00:35:41,310
And Dan just goes,
697
00:35:42,310 --> 00:35:44,191
"You don't need to talk anymore about it.
698
00:35:44,275 --> 00:35:46,827
That's all I needed to hear.
Are you okay?"
699
00:35:46,931 --> 00:35:48,743
You know, "Do you need anything from me?
700
00:35:48,827 --> 00:35:50,427
Is there anything that you need?"
701
00:35:51,827 --> 00:35:53,527
Brian was spending so much time...
702
00:35:54,655 --> 00:35:57,310
Around me that it was pretty obvious.
703
00:36:08,448 --> 00:36:10,344
I get a phone call from Drake.
704
00:36:10,448 --> 00:36:12,847
I go, "What's up? I haven't
heard from you for a while."
705
00:36:12,931 --> 00:36:15,448
And I was like...
Did you see they got him?
706
00:36:15,551 --> 00:36:16,801
I go, "What do you mean?"
707
00:36:17,551 --> 00:36:19,379
"Brian, they arrested him."
708
00:36:20,379 --> 00:36:21,827
And Drake says,
709
00:36:21,931 --> 00:36:24,137
"They arrested him for a molestation."
710
00:36:24,241 --> 00:36:25,931
I go, "You're kidding.
711
00:36:26,034 --> 00:36:28,310
I knew it. i knew it."
712
00:36:28,413 --> 00:36:31,689
And my dad just goes, "I am so glad
713
00:36:31,793 --> 00:36:34,093
that he was not able
to get his hands on you."
714
00:36:35,241 --> 00:36:38,000
My dad's very emotional, and I've just...
715
00:36:39,896 --> 00:36:41,640
We were starting to rekindle
our relationship,
716
00:36:41,724 --> 00:36:42,824
and I just couldn't...
717
00:36:45,034 --> 00:36:46,984
So I just said, "Yeah,
you know, they got him."
718
00:36:47,068 --> 00:36:49,275
He's like, "Oh, I'm so glad.
719
00:36:49,379 --> 00:36:51,629
I knew he was gonna
do something to someone."
720
00:36:56,551 --> 00:36:59,751
How did it make you feel
when you finally found out?
721
00:37:00,068 --> 00:37:02,655
I was-- are you kidding? I'm--
722
00:37:02,758 --> 00:37:04,241
I'm not the same today.
723
00:37:08,137 --> 00:37:10,637
The pain's still there
from the moment that I knew.
724
00:37:20,724 --> 00:37:21,896
It's just that...
725
00:37:23,241 --> 00:37:26,068
I don't wish this on any parent
726
00:37:26,172 --> 00:37:28,482
or child whatsoever.
727
00:37:28,586 --> 00:37:30,068
It's just devastating.
728
00:37:44,827 --> 00:37:47,275
It took quite a while to go to court.
729
00:37:48,275 --> 00:37:52,310
But a few weeks after he was arrested,
730
00:37:53,241 --> 00:37:55,793
I had started shooting the show,
731
00:37:55,896 --> 00:37:56,965
Drake & Josh.
732
00:37:58,448 --> 00:38:00,448
Thank God that I loved what I was doing.
733
00:38:02,517 --> 00:38:06,758
When I was on set
and doing a scene with Josh,
734
00:38:06,862 --> 00:38:11,310
I was able to lose myself
and just have fun.
735
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:12,862
Hey, Josh.
736
00:38:12,965 --> 00:38:14,915
You wanna go play any basket--
737
00:38:17,344 --> 00:38:20,103
Sometimes you'd find
yourself on a red carpet
738
00:38:20,206 --> 00:38:22,103
or an event or something like that.
739
00:38:22,206 --> 00:38:23,793
We're stepbrothers on the show,
740
00:38:23,896 --> 00:38:26,068
and he's kind of the nerdy, wacky kid,
741
00:38:26,172 --> 00:38:27,640
and I'm kind of the "think I'm cool" guy,
742
00:38:27,724 --> 00:38:29,224
but I'm not really that smooth.
743
00:38:29,862 --> 00:38:31,137
It was just exciting.
744
00:38:35,413 --> 00:38:37,157
But that juxtaposed with one of the most...
745
00:38:37,241 --> 00:38:39,172
You know, probably the most...
746
00:38:40,379 --> 00:38:42,172
Traumatic experiences of my life.
747
00:38:47,034 --> 00:38:49,655
I didn't know how to process it.
748
00:38:49,758 --> 00:38:53,275
And I think that led to a lot of...
749
00:38:56,793 --> 00:38:58,586
A lot of self destruction
750
00:38:58,689 --> 00:39:00,206
and a lot of, uh...
751
00:39:02,206 --> 00:39:03,965
Self loathing, really, you know?
752
00:39:05,724 --> 00:39:08,793
So I would try and just escape
753
00:39:08,896 --> 00:39:12,206
with alcohol abuse, substance abuse.
754
00:39:13,034 --> 00:39:14,068
Um...
755
00:39:15,551 --> 00:39:18,034
Really just anything to...
756
00:39:19,310 --> 00:39:21,344
Escape, really.
757
00:39:28,724 --> 00:39:29,847
And it was difficult, too,
758
00:39:29,931 --> 00:39:33,241
because on one hand, your...
759
00:39:34,586 --> 00:39:36,551
Employer and...
760
00:39:36,655 --> 00:39:39,517
The people who are
making money off of you...
761
00:39:39,620 --> 00:39:42,931
Are saying, "You have to be
this great role model."
762
00:39:43,758 --> 00:39:45,689
And I'm...
763
00:39:46,620 --> 00:39:48,103
Sitting at home, going...
764
00:39:50,068 --> 00:39:51,709
"I don't know how to be a role model.
765
00:39:51,793 --> 00:39:55,586
Nor do I have the ability or
capability at this point."
766
00:40:03,275 --> 00:40:06,827
I'm curious, you know, after the arrest,
767
00:40:06,931 --> 00:40:08,862
after this happened,
768
00:40:08,965 --> 00:40:12,000
did anyone at Nickelodeon, any executives
769
00:40:12,103 --> 00:40:13,793
talk to you, reach out to you?
770
00:40:17,241 --> 00:40:19,379
You know,
I'm not really certain
771
00:40:19,482 --> 00:40:22,413
how many people knew...
772
00:40:24,137 --> 00:40:25,068
Who...
773
00:40:26,068 --> 00:40:26,931
It was.
774
00:40:27,034 --> 00:40:28,984
It wasn't really brought up to me a lot.
775
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:32,172
Maybe because, you know,
it's very sensitive subject.
776
00:40:32,793 --> 00:40:34,137
Um...
777
00:40:34,241 --> 00:40:35,689
But really, the only...
778
00:40:37,068 --> 00:40:38,689
Person that I remember...
779
00:40:40,137 --> 00:40:41,689
Being there for me...
780
00:40:42,620 --> 00:40:44,724
Uh, was Dan.
781
00:40:56,965 --> 00:40:59,689
Unfortunately, there was no therapy,
782
00:40:59,793 --> 00:41:02,931
and was left to my own devices,
783
00:41:03,034 --> 00:41:05,534
which, at that age,
probably isn't the best thing.
784
00:41:21,965 --> 00:41:25,413
There's a long period,
and then we go to sentencing.
785
00:41:29,827 --> 00:41:32,000
I was hoping that the outcome would be
786
00:41:32,103 --> 00:41:33,551
he goes to jail,
787
00:41:33,655 --> 00:41:36,931
he is there for a while,
788
00:41:37,034 --> 00:41:40,655
and that he would never be able to
789
00:41:41,482 --> 00:41:43,724
work with kids again,
790
00:41:43,827 --> 00:41:45,689
which would, in turn, pretty much mean
791
00:41:45,793 --> 00:41:47,896
that you're not gonna work in Hollywood,
792
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,103
because very few productions
793
00:41:50,206 --> 00:41:52,931
don't have at least one kid on the set.
794
00:41:55,344 --> 00:41:57,094
Is that what happened?
795
00:41:57,379 --> 00:41:58,879
No, that is not what happened.
796
00:41:59,862 --> 00:42:01,412
That's not what happened at all.
