1
00:00:38,143 --> 00:00:41,549
TJ! TJ! TJ! TJ! TJ!
2
00:00:41,550 --> 00:00:43,252
Okay, don't fall
for the slide-by.
3
00:00:43,253 --> 00:00:46,358
He doesn't go for the single-leg
unless it's late in the round.
4
00:00:46,359 --> 00:00:47,561
You make him come
from your left,
5
00:00:47,562 --> 00:00:49,965
and then you stay low
and you're golden.
6
00:00:49,966 --> 00:00:51,737
- Yes, Coach.
- Hey, hey, hey, hey.
7
00:00:51,738 --> 00:00:53,474
You got an audience.
8
00:00:54,109 --> 00:00:55,678
Third time he's
come to see you now.
9
00:00:55,679 --> 00:00:59,151
You don't have to put on a
show. Just do what you do.
10
00:01:02,993 --> 00:01:04,294
Let's go.
11
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:21,797
Okay TJ, focus.
12
00:01:25,772 --> 00:01:28,843
The defense will tell you
that Justin Ward is a pillar
13
00:01:28,844 --> 00:01:30,213
of the Moss Hill community.
14
00:01:30,214 --> 00:01:32,518
That he turned around his
school's wrestling team
15
00:01:32,519 --> 00:01:35,557
when he returned to his
hometown nine years ago.
16
00:01:35,558 --> 00:01:38,630
They'll tell you that he
himself was a decorated wrestler
17
00:01:38,631 --> 00:01:41,969
who led Moss Hill's class of
'84 to the State Championships.
18
00:01:41,970 --> 00:01:45,510
They'll tell you that he
checked his boys' report cards,
19
00:01:45,511 --> 00:01:48,650
kept them out of trouble,
demanded excellence
20
00:01:48,651 --> 00:01:50,119
on and off the mat.
21
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,858
They'll say he is the
sort of man you can trust.
22
00:01:52,859 --> 00:01:56,364
And you will see why so many
believed that to be true.
23
00:01:56,365 --> 00:01:58,670
Pull the
shoulder. Hit's a fireman.
24
00:01:58,671 --> 00:02:00,741
Hit it! Yeah. Hit him.
25
00:02:01,577 --> 00:02:03,881
Don't let him go.
Don't let him up.
26
00:02:04,616 --> 00:02:07,354
Go! Good. Good.
27
00:02:09,927 --> 00:02:11,763
Headgear!
28
00:02:13,834 --> 00:02:17,140
Bridge. Bridge. Turn on him!
29
00:02:17,141 --> 00:02:18,877
Get outta there. Get out.
30
00:02:28,230 --> 00:02:30,567
- Damn it!
- Okay. Just hold on for a sec,
31
00:02:30,568 --> 00:02:32,705
okay? Look...
32
00:02:32,706 --> 00:02:34,976
You did great, all right?
You did great. Relax, man.
33
00:02:34,977 --> 00:02:36,512
He threw me by my headgear
34
00:02:36,513 --> 00:02:38,149
and the ref didn't
do anything about it.
35
00:02:38,150 --> 00:02:39,785
The guy was top ten in
the state last year,
36
00:02:39,786 --> 00:02:41,488
as a junior, okay?
Don't beat yourself up.
37
00:02:41,489 --> 00:02:43,024
It doesn't matter.
I'm better than him.
38
00:02:43,025 --> 00:02:45,396
- I know you are. Just...
- You didn't wrestle like it.
39
00:02:45,397 --> 00:02:47,467
You got so pissed off,
you're so worried about
40
00:02:47,468 --> 00:02:49,371
lookin' better than
him that you forgot,
41
00:02:49,372 --> 00:02:52,176
when he thinks he has you,
he puts his guard down.
42
00:02:52,177 --> 00:02:53,780
You didn't capitalize on that.
43
00:02:53,781 --> 00:02:56,417
Hold on, hold on. TJ won.
44
00:02:56,418 --> 00:02:58,823
Yeah, he didn't pin the guy,
but he won by five points.
45
00:02:58,824 --> 00:03:00,393
He qualified for State! Why...
46
00:03:00,394 --> 00:03:02,263
Why are we acting like he
slipped on a banana peel?
47
00:03:02,264 --> 00:03:03,967
'Cause it wasn't just a match,
48
00:03:03,968 --> 00:03:05,838
it was an audition.
49
00:03:08,176 --> 00:03:10,312
What'd Coach Lewis say
about the scholarship?
50
00:03:10,313 --> 00:03:11,883
Wasn't a "yes."
51
00:03:13,219 --> 00:03:15,023
But it wasn't a "no" either.
52
00:03:15,758 --> 00:03:18,763
He didn't say much.
He left in a hurry.
53
00:03:18,764 --> 00:03:20,065
Listen, you...
54
00:03:20,066 --> 00:03:21,401
you gotta get your head down,
55
00:03:21,402 --> 00:03:23,706
and make yourself undeniable.
56
00:03:23,707 --> 00:03:25,911
Sure, you can beat up
on a trash can, huh?
57
00:03:27,114 --> 00:03:29,652
But what about a real opponent?
58
00:03:29,653 --> 00:03:32,324
Huh? Pick that up.
59
00:03:33,561 --> 00:03:34,763
Help him.
60
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,338
Is he still in the running?
61
00:03:41,544 --> 00:03:43,580
I'm selling TJ as hard as I can,
62
00:03:43,581 --> 00:03:45,784
but there's another
kid in the mix.
63
00:03:45,785 --> 00:03:48,288
Duke is looking
for a 175-pounder,
64
00:03:48,289 --> 00:03:50,392
which would be Devon
Marshall outta Saginaw High
65
00:03:50,393 --> 00:03:53,165
or Vince Adkins
outta Dover Catholic.
66
00:03:53,166 --> 00:03:56,405
And uh, apparently
this Vince Adkins
67
00:03:56,406 --> 00:03:59,210
can't write his own name
without a cheat sheet,
68
00:03:59,211 --> 00:04:02,017
so it's TJ versus Devon.
69
00:04:02,652 --> 00:04:05,992
But, Marshall, he's
better on paper.
70
00:04:06,894 --> 00:04:10,100
It's been a while since I've
seen that look on your face.
71
00:04:10,669 --> 00:04:12,838
Usually, it was followed by you
telling me you were too busy
72
00:04:12,839 --> 00:04:14,440
working out to see me.
73
00:04:14,441 --> 00:04:17,848
"Prom is temporary, Erica.
Greatness is forever."
74
00:04:17,849 --> 00:04:19,852
TJ's better than I was.
75
00:04:19,853 --> 00:04:22,323
National champion better.
76
00:04:22,324 --> 00:04:23,793
Olympics better.
77
00:04:23,794 --> 00:04:27,033
Yeah, he works hard, but
he's gotta work harder.
78
00:04:30,742 --> 00:04:33,614
Hey, c'mon. Let's go.
We're late to get Nico.
79
00:04:35,417 --> 00:04:38,790
Thank you for
pushing him so hard.
80
00:04:38,791 --> 00:04:40,460
Of course.
81
00:04:42,732 --> 00:04:45,771
Hey, dad.
Hey, Ty. What's up?
82
00:04:45,772 --> 00:04:47,407
Hey.
Thanks for the ride.
83
00:04:51,550 --> 00:04:52,852
Rob.
84
00:04:52,853 --> 00:04:54,656
Justin.
85
00:05:05,678 --> 00:05:07,313
How you feelin', Pop?
86
00:05:07,314 --> 00:05:08,917
Fine.
87
00:05:08,918 --> 00:05:11,020
The nurse tells me that
you're walking again
88
00:05:11,021 --> 00:05:12,256
after the fall.
89
00:05:12,257 --> 00:05:13,560
Any pain in that hip?
90
00:05:13,561 --> 00:05:15,531
- Nope.
- You sure?
91
00:05:20,307 --> 00:05:22,043
Uh...
92
00:05:23,514 --> 00:05:25,349
TJ won again today.
93
00:05:25,350 --> 00:05:27,822
He's going to State.
A bunch of D-1 offers
94
00:05:27,823 --> 00:05:29,525
come in for him. I'm
trying to get him
95
00:05:29,526 --> 00:05:32,531
a full scholarship to Duke.
96
00:05:32,532 --> 00:05:34,669
This is Erica's kid?
97
00:05:35,671 --> 00:05:36,841
Yeah.
98
00:05:37,274 --> 00:05:39,110
I been saying it since
he was trucking kids
99
00:05:39,111 --> 00:05:41,616
in pee wee,
once-in-a-generation.
100
00:05:41,617 --> 00:05:44,655
He's smart. He's
got a 3.0 average.
101
00:05:44,656 --> 00:05:47,426
Helps with his brother.
- Are you adopting him
102
00:05:47,427 --> 00:05:49,097
or coaching him?
103
00:06:01,756 --> 00:06:03,626
Come on!
104
00:06:03,627 --> 00:06:06,833
That's it! Good. Good.
105
00:06:06,834 --> 00:06:08,870
Hit him.
106
00:06:08,871 --> 00:06:10,573
Don't let him escape.
107
00:06:16,686 --> 00:06:19,692
Nico's school can do a
payment plan this month,
108
00:06:19,693 --> 00:06:22,865
so we can put 300
towards the credit cards.
109
00:06:25,771 --> 00:06:29,611
- Rob?
- Yeah. Yeah, okay.
110
00:06:29,612 --> 00:06:33,318
Used to be I was happy TJ
wasn't out getting into trouble,
111
00:06:33,319 --> 00:06:36,257
but now? Hell like,
it's Saturday,
112
00:06:36,258 --> 00:06:38,128
he oughtta be with
his friends. No?
113
00:06:38,129 --> 00:06:41,268
We should be happy that
he's working so hard.
114
00:06:41,269 --> 00:06:42,805
State is in less
than three weeks,
115
00:06:42,806 --> 00:06:45,443
and Justin said that he had...
- Justin is running him ragged.
116
00:06:45,444 --> 00:06:47,748
He's helping him make
something of himself,
117
00:06:47,749 --> 00:06:49,552
we should be
supporting that effort.
118
00:06:49,553 --> 00:06:51,689
"Make
something of himself?"
119
00:06:51,690 --> 00:06:53,259
'Cause if he stays here,
120
00:06:53,260 --> 00:06:55,128
he's, what? He's nothing?
121
00:06:55,129 --> 00:06:56,699
That's not what I said!
122
00:06:56,700 --> 00:06:58,669
That's not even remotely
what I'm talking about.
123
00:06:58,670 --> 00:07:00,072
I've put
roofs on two houses
124
00:07:00,073 --> 00:07:03,345
and installed a football
field's worth of gutter pipe!
125
00:07:03,346 --> 00:07:05,650
This week! I'm proud of that!
126
00:07:05,651 --> 00:07:07,688
You haven't
had a day off in weeks.
127
00:07:07,689 --> 00:07:09,357
That's what you
want for your son?
128
00:07:09,358 --> 00:07:12,129
- That's what you want for him?
- I'm not the one who's unhappy
129
00:07:12,130 --> 00:07:13,633
with our life!
130
00:07:13,634 --> 00:07:17,608
Justin gets to play hero
without raisin' this kid!
131
00:07:17,609 --> 00:07:20,445
You are not still
threatened by him.
132
00:07:20,446 --> 00:07:21,749
It's ridiculous.
133
00:07:21,750 --> 00:07:24,487
He's not doing this for TJ.
134
00:07:24,488 --> 00:07:26,559
He's doin' it for you.
135
00:07:36,045 --> 00:07:38,482
Nice
work, nice work, fellas.
136
00:07:49,706 --> 00:07:51,776
How are you still
two pounds over?
137
00:07:51,777 --> 00:07:53,679
It just doesn't make sense.
138
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,686
Working out three hours a day,
can't drop two damn pounds.
139
00:07:57,688 --> 00:08:00,326
Sit down for a minute.
I wanna talk to you.
140
00:08:00,327 --> 00:08:02,263
I'm worried about you, TJ.
141
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,469
What's going on?
142
00:08:05,470 --> 00:08:06,972
You're talkin' back in class.
143
00:08:06,973 --> 00:08:08,609
You pushed that kid at
lunch the other day.
144
00:08:08,610 --> 00:08:10,012
I walked by him,
145
00:08:10,013 --> 00:08:12,116
and then he made a big
deal about it, okay?
146
00:08:12,117 --> 00:08:15,222
Your grades are down,
too. In 25 years,
147
00:08:15,223 --> 00:08:18,495
Duke has only given out six
full wrestling scholarships,
148
00:08:18,496 --> 00:08:20,835
and none of them were below 3.0.
149
00:08:21,937 --> 00:08:24,775
Richter says that you blew
off his calculus midterm too.
150
00:08:24,776 --> 00:08:26,746
- Forget calculus.
- What?
151
00:08:26,747 --> 00:08:29,284
It was an excused absence.
152
00:08:29,285 --> 00:08:31,354
It was a family emergency.
153
00:08:31,355 --> 00:08:33,125
- A family emergency?
- Yeah.
154
00:08:33,126 --> 00:08:34,628
Well, how do I not
know about this?
155
00:08:34,629 --> 00:08:38,368
I could call your mom.
- Dad pulled me, all right?
156
00:08:38,369 --> 00:08:39,705
He needed my help with a job.
157
00:08:39,706 --> 00:08:41,440
Is he havin' trouble
finding free labor?
158
00:08:41,441 --> 00:08:43,078
It was to see the grand opening
159
00:08:43,079 --> 00:08:45,015
of his American Legion
building he worked on.
160
00:08:45,016 --> 00:08:47,821
He wanted me to see it.
- TJ, he, he wants you to see
161
00:08:47,822 --> 00:08:50,092
that there's a backup
plan, and there isn't.
162
00:08:50,093 --> 00:08:53,165
Duke is it.
- Lay off my dad, okay?
163
00:08:53,166 --> 00:08:57,274
I-I mean, I... I don't
want what he has,
164
00:08:58,009 --> 00:09:00,647
but it's gotta be
pretty difficult for him
165
00:09:00,648 --> 00:09:03,451
to see me working
so hard for a future
166
00:09:03,452 --> 00:09:04,921
that has him in the rearview.
167
00:09:04,922 --> 00:09:07,628
So, he's trying. And so am I.
168
00:09:07,629 --> 00:09:09,866
TJ. TJ!
169
00:09:12,505 --> 00:09:14,140
Put your shoes back on.
170
00:09:14,141 --> 00:09:16,713
You and your teammates
still owe me laps.
171
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,853
- I can't, Coach.
- You have a 2.8 GPA.
172
00:09:20,854 --> 00:09:23,325
You're two pounds
overweight. 28 plus two
173
00:09:23,326 --> 00:09:25,797
equals a nice round 30 laps.
174
00:09:25,798 --> 00:09:27,868
How's that for calculus?
175
00:09:31,275 --> 00:09:33,445
You told me you
were gonna give it to me!
176
00:09:33,446 --> 00:09:36,585
Okay. Just chill, okay?
177
00:09:36,586 --> 00:09:37,854
You're acting like a tweaker.
178
00:09:37,855 --> 00:09:39,758
- No, I'm not.
- You're gonna get me
179
00:09:39,759 --> 00:09:41,529
No, I'm not.
180
00:09:41,530 --> 00:09:43,566
I tested in November.
I chugged that weird,
181
00:09:43,567 --> 00:09:44,968
that weird tea...
- I am saying
182
00:09:44,969 --> 00:09:47,473
you need to slow down. Okay?
183
00:09:47,474 --> 00:09:48,943
- Give it to me.
- All right?
184
00:09:48,944 --> 00:09:50,880
- Give it to me.
- Yeah. Here.
185
00:09:50,881 --> 00:09:53,787
You want it?
- Yeah!
186
00:09:56,225 --> 00:09:58,930
Just take it easy, okay?
187
00:10:13,661 --> 00:10:16,064
Whaddya got there?
188
00:10:18,236 --> 00:10:20,372
It's my backpack.
189
00:10:20,373 --> 00:10:21,843
What's in it?
190
00:10:22,612 --> 00:10:24,113
Tyson let me copy his homework,
191
00:10:24,114 --> 00:10:26,686
so that's what's in it.
- Turn it over.
192
00:10:40,347 --> 00:10:41,816
It was... It's nothing.
193
00:10:42,685 --> 00:10:44,722
Steroids?
194
00:10:45,658 --> 00:10:46,959
Damn it, TJ.
195
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,163
No wonder you've been a wreck.
196
00:10:51,770 --> 00:10:53,673
Come on, let's go.
- Where are we goin'?
197
00:10:53,674 --> 00:10:55,308
Where do you think?
198
00:10:59,819 --> 00:11:02,156
It sounds worse
than it is, okay?
199
00:11:02,157 --> 00:11:04,426
Listen steroids, they're
just natural hormones
200
00:11:04,427 --> 00:11:05,730
that my body's
already producing.
201
00:11:05,731 --> 00:11:07,600
It's not like its meth
or something like that,
202
00:11:07,601 --> 00:11:10,172
all right? I-I'm training hard.
203
00:11:10,173 --> 00:11:12,110
I-I'm eating healthy.
204
00:11:12,545 --> 00:11:15,683
I don't have the
fancy wrestling camps
205
00:11:15,684 --> 00:11:17,721
or coaches, I can't afford it.
206
00:11:18,590 --> 00:11:20,392
I-I'm trying to even
the playing field.
207
00:11:20,393 --> 00:11:23,332
I know it was stupid.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry!
208
00:11:25,403 --> 00:11:27,874
I swear, I swear,
209
00:11:27,875 --> 00:11:29,978
after State, I'm done.
- State?
210
00:11:29,979 --> 00:11:32,149
You think I'm taking you
to State all juiced up?
211
00:11:32,150 --> 00:11:34,019
No, no, no, no, no,
you can't do that.
212
00:11:34,020 --> 00:11:35,623
We'll see what your
parents have to say.
213
00:11:35,624 --> 00:11:37,360
You can't tell them!
214
00:11:38,362 --> 00:11:40,131
Oh my god, there you are!
215
00:11:40,132 --> 00:11:42,069
Erica, listen,
216
00:11:42,070 --> 00:11:43,673
there's something
that you should know.
217
00:11:43,674 --> 00:11:45,209
I already know.
218
00:11:47,748 --> 00:11:50,485
- Hey, Coach.
- Hi, Coach, how are ya?
219
00:11:50,486 --> 00:11:52,657
Hello, TJ.
- Hi. Hi, Coach.
220
00:11:52,658 --> 00:11:54,293
I wanted to come and
personally tell you
221
00:11:54,294 --> 00:11:56,665
that I cleared it with
our athletic department,
222
00:11:56,666 --> 00:11:58,836
and I am very
excited to offer you
223
00:11:58,837 --> 00:12:01,074
a scholarship to
Duke University.
224
00:12:01,075 --> 00:12:04,014
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.
225
00:12:04,481 --> 00:12:06,251
That's fantastic.
226
00:12:07,087 --> 00:12:09,992
Congratulations, son. I've got
your letter of intent here.
227
00:12:19,712 --> 00:12:22,450
Wow. It's good.
228
00:12:28,295 --> 00:12:32,269
Mr. Ward was relentless
in driving them.
229
00:12:32,270 --> 00:12:34,841
TJ Ellis in particular.
230
00:12:34,842 --> 00:12:37,814
Not simply because he
wanted to do right by them.
231
00:12:37,815 --> 00:12:41,020
But because their
victory would be his.
232
00:12:41,021 --> 00:12:45,062
Because, by winning,
he could matter again.
233
00:12:45,063 --> 00:12:48,903
And for Mr. Ward, there
was no price too high
234
00:12:48,904 --> 00:12:51,509
to pay for the chance
to matter again.
235
00:12:51,510 --> 00:12:53,345
Though pay he did...
236
00:12:53,346 --> 00:12:55,282
with someone else's life.
237
00:13:11,883 --> 00:13:14,286
You know, your coach
has been emailing me
238
00:13:14,287 --> 00:13:16,725
every day saying you're the one.
239
00:13:16,726 --> 00:13:18,963
He's got clips, diagrams,
stat breakdowns.
240
00:13:18,964 --> 00:13:21,234
I figured either I take out
a restraining order on him,
241
00:13:21,235 --> 00:13:23,372
or I offer you the
scholarship.
242
00:13:23,373 --> 00:13:26,110
He says that you're a
deeply principled young man.
243
00:13:26,111 --> 00:13:28,716
At Duke, that's a quality
that we hold in high regard.
244
00:13:28,717 --> 00:13:30,654
- It's all thanks to Justin.
- Nah.
245
00:13:30,655 --> 00:13:33,191
Our, uh, program
gets a pool of money,
246
00:13:33,192 --> 00:13:35,262
so we usually only offer
partial scholarships
247
00:13:35,263 --> 00:13:38,301
to lower-division
wrestlers. But if you win,
248
00:13:38,302 --> 00:13:40,472
well, I can make a case that
you're worth the whole pie.
249
00:13:40,473 --> 00:13:42,777
And what if he doesn't win?
250
00:13:42,778 --> 00:13:44,514
- Oh, he'll win.
- Dad, come on.
251
00:13:44,515 --> 00:13:46,619
Hey, I'm just saying.
252
00:13:46,620 --> 00:13:49,390
He's gonna be wrestling
against the best wrestlers
253
00:13:49,391 --> 00:13:51,328
in Pennsylvania,
what if he doesn't?
254
00:13:51,329 --> 00:13:53,031
He'll still have a
place on our team,
255
00:13:53,032 --> 00:13:54,701
with a partial scholarship.
256
00:13:54,702 --> 00:13:56,939
Partial? I mean, what's that?
257
00:13:56,940 --> 00:13:58,910
Thirty K? Gee, thanks.
258
00:13:58,911 --> 00:14:00,747
There are loan programs.
259
00:14:00,748 --> 00:14:03,151
Loan programs. I
forget I'm talkin'
260
00:14:03,152 --> 00:14:05,723
to Mr. Ivy League over
here. For how long?
261
00:14:05,724 --> 00:14:07,293
All of like, eight
months, was it?
262
00:14:07,294 --> 00:14:10,498
I did two years at Cornell
before I got injured.
263
00:14:10,499 --> 00:14:12,771
You shoulda seen him
senior year of high school.
264
00:14:12,772 --> 00:14:15,543
Like he was Napoleon,
and the rest of us
265
00:14:15,544 --> 00:14:16,912
were trailer trash.
- Rob!
266
00:14:16,913 --> 00:14:19,417
Drinkin' in the parking
lot wasn't my style.
267
00:14:19,418 --> 00:14:21,020
This is a funny story.
268
00:14:21,021 --> 00:14:23,224
Erica was his
girlfriend at the time,
269
00:14:23,225 --> 00:14:25,863
drives him all the
way up to Ithaca,
270
00:14:25,864 --> 00:14:27,667
helps him move into
his fancy new dorm,
271
00:14:27,668 --> 00:14:31,107
and right as she puts down
the last box, he dumps her.
272
00:14:31,108 --> 00:14:33,178
- That was a long time ago.
- Mm-hmm.
273
00:14:34,582 --> 00:14:36,952
Can I get you something
to drink? Something else?
274
00:14:36,953 --> 00:14:39,190
Uh, no. No. Thank you.
I should be going.
275
00:14:39,191 --> 00:14:40,994
I'm staying in
Philadelphia tonight.
276
00:14:40,995 --> 00:14:45,770
Long drive. TJ, once
again, congratulations.
277
00:14:45,771 --> 00:14:47,439
Mr. Ellis, thanks
for your hospitality.
278
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,043
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
279
00:14:49,044 --> 00:14:51,013
Uh, Coach and I
will walk you out.
280
00:14:51,014 --> 00:14:52,518
Oh, great.
281
00:14:58,162 --> 00:15:00,933
Lookin' forward to havin'
you on our squad, son.
282
00:15:00,934 --> 00:15:02,374
Thanks again!:
Thank you, coach.
283
00:15:04,074 --> 00:15:06,477
You trying to embarrass TJ?
284
00:15:06,478 --> 00:15:08,983
This was supposed
to be a celebration.
285
00:15:08,984 --> 00:15:11,220
Look, he just
wanted to make sure
286
00:15:11,221 --> 00:15:13,424
TJ didn't commit
to another school.
287
00:15:13,425 --> 00:15:15,530
Erica, sit down.
288
00:15:18,202 --> 00:15:19,738
Can you tell the
court what the terms
289
00:15:19,739 --> 00:15:21,576
of your testimony today are?
290
00:15:22,377 --> 00:15:24,079
Uh...
291
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,417
The terms are, I won't
be charged with a felony.
292
00:15:26,418 --> 00:15:28,388
Right. You're
instead being charged
293
00:15:28,389 --> 00:15:31,394
with misdemeanor possession
of schedule three narcotics
294
00:15:31,395 --> 00:15:34,500
on condition of your cooperation
with the prosecution,
295
00:15:35,169 --> 00:15:37,373
a punishment which
carries a fine
296
00:15:37,374 --> 00:15:41,047
and community service,
but no jail time?
297
00:15:42,751 --> 00:15:44,521
- Yeah.
- Can you tell the court
298
00:15:44,522 --> 00:15:47,561
what it was you
provided to Mr. Ellis?
299
00:15:48,462 --> 00:15:50,098
My mom's a vet.
300
00:15:51,836 --> 00:15:53,706
She has, uh...
301
00:15:55,209 --> 00:15:57,514
Boldenone, this animal steroid,
302
00:15:57,515 --> 00:15:59,785
it's what baseball
players used to take,
303
00:15:59,786 --> 00:16:02,122
so TJ had me swipe some.
304
00:16:02,123 --> 00:16:04,694
He was stuck, you know?
Rock and a hard place.
305
00:16:04,695 --> 00:16:07,133
Coach pushing, his dad pulling.
306
00:16:07,134 --> 00:16:08,569
It was just too much
pressure for him.
307
00:16:08,570 --> 00:16:11,207
I mean, protein powder
wasn't gonna cut it.
308
00:16:11,208 --> 00:16:13,011
A body can't bench
press in the morning
309
00:16:13,012 --> 00:16:14,447
and then haul bricks
after practice.
310
00:16:14,448 --> 00:16:16,451
His dad wouldn't
give him a break,
311
00:16:16,452 --> 00:16:18,288
it was like, it was
like he needed to prove
312
00:16:18,289 --> 00:16:21,293
that it was a life worth living.
- Don't talk about my dad!
313
00:16:21,294 --> 00:16:24,100
Don't talk about my dad! He
didn't do anything to you!
314
00:16:24,101 --> 00:16:25,703
Okay,
let's go. Come on.
315
00:16:25,704 --> 00:16:27,674
Come on. Let's go
outside...
316
00:16:27,675 --> 00:16:29,009
You're okay. I got you.
317
00:16:29,010 --> 00:16:30,245
He
knows it wasn't him.
318
00:16:30,246 --> 00:16:32,383
He knows it wasn't him!
319
00:16:32,885 --> 00:16:35,723
Let's take
a recess for lunch.
320
00:16:35,724 --> 00:16:37,025
We'll resume in 30 minutes.
321
00:16:45,611 --> 00:16:49,149
If you tell them,
my dad'll pull me.
322
00:16:49,150 --> 00:16:52,524
You heard Coach, no
State, no scholarship.
323
00:16:52,525 --> 00:16:55,763
Forget college, forget
everything I worked for.
324
00:16:55,764 --> 00:16:57,734
What's the point then?
325
00:16:58,570 --> 00:17:00,840
What's my life, then?
326
00:17:00,841 --> 00:17:02,076
Please...
327
00:17:02,945 --> 00:17:04,782
Please don't tell them.
328
00:17:11,194 --> 00:17:14,968
Hey, hey, hey, college
boy! Mom texted me!
329
00:17:14,969 --> 00:17:16,671
Hey, Nico.
330
00:17:16,672 --> 00:17:18,174
Congrats on getting in!
331
00:17:18,175 --> 00:17:20,445
Not yet! Knock
on wood, knock on wood.
332
00:17:20,446 --> 00:17:22,149
Still gonna do our summer
trip, though, right?
333
00:17:22,150 --> 00:17:25,222
Of course. Of course.
We got this whole summer
334
00:17:25,223 --> 00:17:27,426
last hurrah trip planned.
335
00:17:27,427 --> 00:17:29,931
I vote Europe, he
votes Australia,
336
00:17:29,932 --> 00:17:33,071
we've got about enough money
for a bus ride to Cleveland.
337
00:17:33,773 --> 00:17:35,242
We're gonna figure it out.
338
00:17:35,243 --> 00:17:38,516
Uh, there's one problem
with Duke, though.
339
00:17:39,986 --> 00:17:41,254
What?
340
00:17:41,255 --> 00:17:42,958
You look ugly in blue.
341
00:17:42,959 --> 00:17:45,763
Yeah, so do you, asshat.
342
00:17:45,764 --> 00:17:47,902
Come on. Come on.
343
00:17:48,335 --> 00:17:49,738
You know I'm
the pretty one, right?
344
00:17:49,739 --> 00:17:51,908
Get outta here.
Get inside.
345
00:17:58,022 --> 00:17:59,625
The only place nearby
that's half-edible
346
00:17:59,626 --> 00:18:01,861
is the falafel truck,
but the line's insane,
347
00:18:01,862 --> 00:18:04,100
and we need to be back
from lunch in half an hour.
348
00:18:04,101 --> 00:18:05,870
Are you
hungry? - No.
349
00:18:06,639 --> 00:18:07,774
No, not really.
350
00:18:10,146 --> 00:18:12,885
Why don't we take a little
walk? Get some fresh air?
351
00:18:13,219 --> 00:18:15,623
- Sure.
- Come on.
352
00:18:23,338 --> 00:18:25,041
I've learned to
grab my own lunch.
353
00:18:25,042 --> 00:18:27,179
That's a ham and
cheese from Lamana's.
354
00:18:27,180 --> 00:18:29,249
You're welcome to half.
355
00:18:29,250 --> 00:18:31,454
Seriously, you'd be
doing me a favor.
356
00:18:32,257 --> 00:18:34,227
- Thanks.
- Yeah.
357
00:18:34,729 --> 00:18:37,233
- I'm gonna...
- Sure.
358
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,406
Erica said to stay outside.
359
00:18:57,407 --> 00:19:01,548
Doesn't trust me to sit in
court and not try to kill you.
360
00:19:05,023 --> 00:19:07,293
Well...
361
00:19:07,294 --> 00:19:10,165
If you wanna hit me,
I... I understand.
362
00:19:14,141 --> 00:19:16,612
I don't want to hit you, Justin.
363
00:19:17,815 --> 00:19:19,852
I want my son back.
364
00:19:26,866 --> 00:19:28,936
I'm sorry about earlier.
365
00:19:28,937 --> 00:19:31,408
It was just too much.
366
00:19:32,477 --> 00:19:34,548
You can stay
outside if you want.
367
00:19:34,549 --> 00:19:37,319
You don't have to watch.
- Yes, I do.
368
00:19:39,759 --> 00:19:41,361
I have to be there.
369
00:19:42,196 --> 00:19:43,966
I have to remember it.
370
00:19:46,071 --> 00:19:48,743
I forget stuff all the time.
371
00:19:51,950 --> 00:19:54,019
What if I forget him, too?
372
00:20:31,729 --> 00:20:32,865
Coach?
373
00:20:33,165 --> 00:20:35,704
Yeah, I... I've been thinkin',
374
00:20:36,471 --> 00:20:39,009
when I was your age, I
woulda done whatever it took
375
00:20:39,010 --> 00:20:40,312
to get outta here,
376
00:20:41,448 --> 00:20:42,984
so I'm not gonna say anything
to anyone about this.
377
00:20:42,985 --> 00:20:47,059
I'm gonna keep it to myself
and let you go to State.
378
00:20:47,060 --> 00:20:49,096
- Thank you!
- On one condition.
379
00:20:49,097 --> 00:20:52,069
Tomorrow morning, you
meet me at my office
380
00:20:52,070 --> 00:20:53,638
20 minutes before homeroom,
381
00:20:53,639 --> 00:20:55,910
you hand over the rest of
the drugs. All of them.
382
00:20:55,911 --> 00:20:57,412
You understand me?
383
00:20:57,413 --> 00:20:58,950
Yes, Coach.
384
00:21:00,185 --> 00:21:03,291
Listen, kids around here,
they don't get second chances,
385
00:21:03,292 --> 00:21:04,862
so don't waste yours.
386
00:21:05,196 --> 00:21:07,433
I won't. I...
387
00:21:08,068 --> 00:21:09,771
I'm sorry I let you down.
388
00:21:09,772 --> 00:21:12,911
Yeah, well, you made a mistake.
389
00:21:13,780 --> 00:21:15,282
It doesn't mean you
have to pay for it
390
00:21:15,283 --> 00:21:17,353
for the rest of your life.
391
00:21:18,388 --> 00:21:20,092
Hey, listen,
392
00:21:20,093 --> 00:21:22,029
you will win State,
393
00:21:22,597 --> 00:21:25,168
and you will get that
full scholarship,
394
00:21:25,169 --> 00:21:27,406
but you're gonna do
it on your own steam,
395
00:21:27,975 --> 00:21:30,914
because you're the best
wrestler on the mat.
396
00:21:31,916 --> 00:21:33,451
You hear me?
397
00:21:33,452 --> 00:21:36,057
Yes, sir. Thanks, Coach.

I saw a video where you
can work on a cruise
422
00:22:56,084 --> 00:22:58,856
and sightsee on your downtime.
- Hand me my water.
423
00:22:58,857 --> 00:23:03,164
You wash dishes and then
snorkel when you're free.
424
00:23:03,165 --> 00:23:05,402
Nico. Hand me my water?
425
00:23:09,077 --> 00:23:10,980
We have to apply,
though. And if you're in,
426
00:23:10,981 --> 00:23:13,283
it means we have to fill
out all these forms, so...
427
00:23:13,284 --> 00:23:15,523
Nico, not now.
428
00:23:19,363 --> 00:23:21,669
Sorry, I just...
- It's okay.
429
00:23:23,305 --> 00:23:24,875
You gotta lock in.
430
00:23:26,177 --> 00:23:27,614
Don't suck.
431
00:23:28,716 --> 00:23:30,853
Love you.
- I love you.
432
00:23:38,368 --> 00:23:40,439
Hey. You all right?
433
00:23:40,741 --> 00:23:42,910
Yeah, I'm fine.
It's just nerves.
434
00:23:56,204 --> 00:23:59,544
This is your fourth match
in two days. And your last.
435
00:24:00,547 --> 00:24:03,652
I used to get sick
before my matches too.
436
00:24:03,653 --> 00:24:05,188
My father would always say,
437
00:24:05,189 --> 00:24:08,094
nothing can stop you as long
as you know why you're here.
438
00:24:09,464 --> 00:24:10,866
Why are you here?
439
00:24:10,867 --> 00:24:14,140
I get the chance to do
things that Nico can't.
440
00:24:15,108 --> 00:24:17,046
I don't wanna waste that luck.
441
00:24:17,814 --> 00:24:19,784
Plus, the kid learned
how to walk twice.
442
00:24:19,785 --> 00:24:22,122
I got no excuses for
not giving it my all.
443
00:24:25,295 --> 00:24:27,199
How about a little more luck?
444
00:24:28,334 --> 00:24:30,238
Used to wear these
at my matches.
445
00:24:33,412 --> 00:24:36,250
Now, if you'll excuse me.
446
00:24:36,251 --> 00:24:37,920
Don't grow old, kid,
447
00:24:37,921 --> 00:24:41,662
the rest is just taxes
and trips to the bathroom.
448
00:24:43,398 --> 00:24:45,335
Are you TJ Ellis?
449
00:24:45,336 --> 00:24:47,607
- Yeah. Hey.
- My name's Aaron Gardner,
450
00:24:47,608 --> 00:24:49,343
I'm a doping officer
for the Pennsylvania
451
00:24:49,344 --> 00:24:52,082
Interscholastic
Sports Federation.
452
00:24:52,083 --> 00:24:54,219
You know the drill.
- Uh, didn't you guys test
453
00:24:54,220 --> 00:24:56,691
at the beginning of the season?
- We're re-testing.
454
00:24:56,692 --> 00:24:58,628
I'm on the mat in
15 minutes, man.
455
00:24:58,629 --> 00:24:59,864
It'll only take two minutes.
456
00:24:59,865 --> 00:25:01,701
I assume you've been
provided with the list
457
00:25:01,702 --> 00:25:03,838
of banned substances;
anabolic steroids,
458
00:25:03,839 --> 00:25:05,776
hormone modulators, stimulants,
459
00:25:05,777 --> 00:25:08,414
and any masking agents that
might be used to fool the test.
460
00:25:08,415 --> 00:25:11,286
So, are you guys
testing everyone?
461
00:25:11,287 --> 00:25:12,756
Or just the public school kids?
462
00:25:12,757 --> 00:25:15,896
The tests are completely
random. Per PISF policy.
463
00:25:15,897 --> 00:25:17,599
If I didn't know better,
I'd say you seem reluctant
464
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,640
to submit to the test.
- No, no. No, I'm fine.
465
00:25:21,375 --> 00:25:23,311
Okay. Mind if I
check your pockets?
466
00:25:23,312 --> 00:25:24,981
Knock yourself out, man.
467
00:25:40,379 --> 00:25:42,850
Up
next, the 145-pound
468
00:25:42,851 --> 00:25:44,521
State final match.
469
00:25:44,522 --> 00:25:46,725
TJ Ellis of Moss
Hill High School
470
00:25:46,726 --> 00:25:49,898
versus Louis Vega of
Stonewood High School.
471
00:26:00,052 --> 00:26:01,688
Listen...
472
00:26:01,689 --> 00:26:04,193
He's made it this far.
473
00:26:04,194 --> 00:26:06,063
He's gonna do great.
474
00:26:06,064 --> 00:26:09,103
But if he doesn't win,
it'll also be okay.
475
00:26:10,507 --> 00:26:12,677
He's afraid of becoming me.
476
00:26:13,713 --> 00:26:15,616
But it's not so bad.
477
00:26:16,652 --> 00:26:19,256
Hey. Any last-minute advice?
478
00:26:20,259 --> 00:26:22,062
What?
479
00:26:22,731 --> 00:26:24,733
You're ready. Go
kick some ass.
480
00:26:24,734 --> 00:26:26,705
Thanks for everything, Coach.
481
00:26:26,706 --> 00:26:29,143
Yeah. Get in there.
482
00:26:30,346 --> 00:26:31,849
Okay, TJ.
483
00:26:32,449 --> 00:26:36,022
Okay. All right, TJ. Focus.
484
00:26:40,533 --> 00:26:42,402
Hey, turn him. Turn him.
485
00:26:42,403 --> 00:26:43,906
Go. Yep.
486
00:27:03,780 --> 00:27:05,549
Okay.
487
00:27:05,550 --> 00:27:07,452
It's alright, TJ. Come
on, get after him.
488
00:27:07,453 --> 00:27:08,856
Come on.
489
00:27:10,159 --> 00:27:11,561
Watch the big throw!
490
00:27:13,464 --> 00:27:15,135
Get outta there!
491
00:27:20,746 --> 00:27:22,182
Go! Come on!
492
00:27:26,625 --> 00:27:29,195
All right. Yes, good.
493
00:27:29,196 --> 00:27:30,967
Let's go. Yes!
494
00:27:31,602 --> 00:27:34,005
Yes, yes! Yes!
495
00:27:34,006 --> 00:27:35,074
Let's go!
496
00:27:37,580 --> 00:27:40,318
Yes! Let's go!
497
00:27:42,524 --> 00:27:43,993
Yes!
498
00:27:44,260 --> 00:27:46,163
Yes TJ!
499
00:27:47,734 --> 00:27:49,069
Ladies
and Gentlemen,
500
00:27:49,070 --> 00:27:52,877
your new Pennsylvania
State Champion, TJ Ellis.
501
00:27:55,583 --> 00:27:57,118
Yeah!
502
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,857
The heart's
a machine. You know?
503
00:27:59,858 --> 00:28:02,362
I never thought
about it, but it is.
504
00:28:02,363 --> 00:28:04,399
Pumps, valves, chambers.
505
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,907
But if you push a machine
too hard for too long...
506
00:28:11,447 --> 00:28:13,184
it breaks.
507
00:28:16,926 --> 00:28:21,067
TJ? Hey, TJ. Hey, kid.
508
00:28:21,602 --> 00:28:23,371
Medic! Hey!
509
00:28:24,039 --> 00:28:26,010
- What's going on?
- Wait here.
510
00:28:30,620 --> 00:28:32,221
TJ!
511
00:28:32,222 --> 00:28:34,093
What happened? TJ!
512
00:28:34,594 --> 00:28:37,032
He's
not breathing!
513
00:28:37,033 --> 00:28:40,540
Justin did chest
compressions the whole time.
514
00:28:41,007 --> 00:28:42,643
He just kept doin' it.
515
00:28:42,644 --> 00:28:45,916
Just kept doin' it.
Just kept doin' it.
516
00:28:45,917 --> 00:28:48,588
- Oh, my God!
- No. Oh no. Come on.
517
00:28:48,589 --> 00:28:49,924
What happened?
518
00:28:49,925 --> 00:28:51,895
What's happening?
519
00:28:52,864 --> 00:28:54,432
What's happening?
- Please, please.
520
00:28:54,433 --> 00:28:56,002
Help him, please!
521
00:28:56,003 --> 00:28:57,204
Please. TJ, come on.
522
00:28:57,205 --> 00:28:59,343
- Come on,
TJ. - TJ.
523
00:29:02,183 --> 00:29:03,217
TJ!
524
00:29:04,521 --> 00:29:05,923
What's happening?
525
00:29:08,194 --> 00:29:09,564
Oh, my God!
526
00:29:09,565 --> 00:29:13,872
Wasn't until I found
out how he was responsible
527
00:29:13,873 --> 00:29:15,877
that I figured it out.
528
00:29:16,645 --> 00:29:19,551
He wasn't trying
to keep TJ alive.
529
00:29:20,252 --> 00:29:22,891
He was trying to
save his own life.
530
00:29:28,335 --> 00:29:32,977
He needed TJ alive because
of what he had done.
531
00:29:39,323 --> 00:29:42,461
It would have been hard
enough having just one child
532
00:29:42,462 --> 00:29:44,900
with TJ or Nico's temperament,
533
00:29:44,901 --> 00:29:46,539
but together?
534
00:29:47,139 --> 00:29:49,844
They'd bite kids at school,
535
00:29:50,445 --> 00:29:51,548
they...
536
00:29:52,082 --> 00:29:54,386
they'd destroy
anything breakable.
537
00:29:54,387 --> 00:29:58,360
They were like two little demons
just setting the world on fire,
538
00:29:58,361 --> 00:30:01,000
and Rob and I were
always working, so...
539
00:30:01,802 --> 00:30:04,139
I guess it was just
a matter of time.
540
00:30:04,140 --> 00:30:06,511
They were in their
after-school program,
541
00:30:06,512 --> 00:30:08,915
and somehow,
542
00:30:08,916 --> 00:30:12,556
Nico found his way
out the window,
543
00:30:12,557 --> 00:30:14,293
and onto the fire escape.
544
00:30:15,864 --> 00:30:19,269
TJ, he stayed behind.
545
00:30:21,307 --> 00:30:24,179
Then the fire escape
collapsed, and...
546
00:30:26,217 --> 00:30:29,189
Nico fell four
stories onto his back.
547
00:30:29,190 --> 00:30:31,894
He hit his head on the pavement.
548
00:30:31,895 --> 00:30:35,568
They didn't know if he
would walk or speak again.
549
00:30:35,569 --> 00:30:36,938
TJ helped him.
550
00:30:36,939 --> 00:30:39,610
Nico needed a lot of help,
551
00:30:39,611 --> 00:30:41,414
so we...
552
00:30:42,216 --> 00:30:46,991
we put TJ in every
sport we could think of.
553
00:30:46,992 --> 00:30:49,998
Is that when Mr. Ward first
took an interest in him?
554
00:30:51,067 --> 00:30:53,838
He saw TJ play in a
pee wee football game
555
00:30:53,839 --> 00:30:56,176
and said for the safety
of the other kids,
556
00:30:56,177 --> 00:30:58,581
we should get him wrestling.
557
00:30:58,582 --> 00:31:00,317
It was Justin's ticket out,
558
00:31:00,318 --> 00:31:04,093
and... I thought it
could be TJ's, too.
559
00:31:04,493 --> 00:31:06,664
I'm sure you're aware of
your son's autopsy findings.
560
00:31:06,665 --> 00:31:10,171
You're aware that the steroid
abuse scarred TJ's heart,
561
00:31:10,172 --> 00:31:11,608
giving him the sort
of artery blockages
562
00:31:11,609 --> 00:31:14,412
usually found in middle-aged
heart attack victims?
563
00:31:14,413 --> 00:31:18,722
- Yes.
- Did you trust that your son
564
00:31:18,723 --> 00:31:21,393
was safe in Mr. Ward's care?
565
00:31:23,866 --> 00:31:24,967
Yes.
566
00:31:24,968 --> 00:31:27,573
Do you feel he broke that trust?
567
00:31:33,952 --> 00:31:37,059
Can I have... Can I
have a minute, please?
568
00:31:37,459 --> 00:31:39,697
Let's take
a five minute break.
569
00:31:42,671 --> 00:31:45,074
Hey. What's goin' on?
570
00:31:45,075 --> 00:31:47,478
I can't do it.
571
00:31:47,479 --> 00:31:50,018
Because you don't want
to testify against him,
572
00:31:50,019 --> 00:31:52,824
is that it? He lied to us.
573
00:31:53,224 --> 00:31:54,927
He's not your high
school sweetheart,
574
00:31:54,928 --> 00:31:57,165
he's an adult that
should know better.
575
00:31:57,166 --> 00:31:59,804
- Rob!
- Why are you trying to protect
576
00:31:59,805 --> 00:32:01,642
the man who killed our son?
577
00:32:01,975 --> 00:32:04,948
Because it's not his
fault. It's mine.
578
00:32:09,892 --> 00:32:11,962
I'm sorry.
579
00:32:21,548 --> 00:32:22,918
Erica.
580
00:32:23,452 --> 00:32:26,256
I just came to clean
out his locker.
581
00:32:26,257 --> 00:32:27,893
Uh...
582
00:32:27,894 --> 00:32:29,897
I'm sorry. I...
583
00:32:29,898 --> 00:32:31,433
I would have called.
584
00:32:31,434 --> 00:32:34,673
This no-contact order on
the part of the judge. I...
585
00:32:34,674 --> 00:32:36,443
Yeah. I know.
586
00:32:41,353 --> 00:32:44,193
Bought that with my
very first paycheck.
587
00:32:45,195 --> 00:32:47,533
I swore I'd never open it
588
00:32:47,534 --> 00:32:50,573
until one of my wrestlers
was State Champion.
589
00:32:52,009 --> 00:32:53,443
This will be the
first bottle of booze
590
00:32:53,444 --> 00:32:56,618
we've ever had together that
was more than ten bucks.
591
00:32:57,554 --> 00:32:59,356
Yeah.
592
00:33:00,458 --> 00:33:02,028
Listen, I...
593
00:33:02,029 --> 00:33:04,166
I have to enter a plea.
594
00:33:05,435 --> 00:33:07,740
My lawyer thinks
I have a defense.
595
00:33:09,309 --> 00:33:11,714
Every wrestler needs a
full medical clearance
596
00:33:11,715 --> 00:33:15,589
in order to compete. And,
um, I found TJ's health form
597
00:33:15,590 --> 00:33:20,599
from December. And by
the time of this checkup,
598
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,036
he had been using for
about three months.
599
00:33:23,037 --> 00:33:24,940
And with this level
of steroid use,
600
00:33:24,941 --> 00:33:27,145
he would have had
heart palpitations,
601
00:33:27,146 --> 00:33:29,148
high blood pressure, things
they would have caught,
602
00:33:29,149 --> 00:33:31,419
but this Dr. Powell,
he didn't...
603
00:33:31,420 --> 00:33:33,725
- Justin...
- I know I-I should,
604
00:33:33,726 --> 00:33:37,599
I should have told you. I-I
should have stopped him.
605
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:39,703
I should have done
everything differently. I...
606
00:33:39,704 --> 00:33:43,110
But this was December, I
didn't find out until April.
607
00:33:43,111 --> 00:33:45,247
There were guardrails
to prevent this,
608
00:33:45,248 --> 00:33:47,620
way before I knew, and
those guardrails broke.
609
00:33:47,621 --> 00:33:50,191
And this doctor...
- There was no doctor.
610
00:33:51,829 --> 00:33:53,398
What?
611
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,303
I forged... I forged the form.
612
00:33:58,474 --> 00:34:02,750
TJ's checkups had
always been perfect.
613
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,287
He was doing great,
614
00:34:05,288 --> 00:34:07,191
and, and our insurance
is through the roof
615
00:34:07,192 --> 00:34:09,328
because of Nico, so I thought,
616
00:34:09,329 --> 00:34:11,934
what's the harm of
missing one checkup?
617
00:34:11,935 --> 00:34:14,339
I mean, never in a million
years would I have ever thought
618
00:34:14,340 --> 00:34:16,678
there'd be anything to find.
619
00:34:17,847 --> 00:34:19,349
I don't know.
620
00:34:21,387 --> 00:34:24,426
Maybe they would have
found something. Maybe...
621
00:34:24,427 --> 00:34:26,363
Maybe he'd still be here.
622
00:34:29,136 --> 00:34:30,572
Does Rob know?
623
00:34:31,207 --> 00:34:33,244
I can't tell him.
624
00:34:39,423 --> 00:34:40,759
But, um...
625
00:34:44,333 --> 00:34:46,671
You should know it's
not all your fault.
626
00:34:48,875 --> 00:34:50,813
And you should tell your lawyer.
627
00:35:03,939 --> 00:35:05,440
First, can I just
say, Mrs. Ellis,
628
00:35:05,441 --> 00:35:07,646
how sorry I am for your loss.
629
00:35:07,647 --> 00:35:10,552
You always expected a great
deal from TJ, didn't you?
630
00:35:11,755 --> 00:35:14,493
- Yes.
- Why?
631
00:35:17,667 --> 00:35:19,469
Because the stakes
were too high.
632
00:35:19,470 --> 00:35:22,275
Someday, Rob and I wouldn't
be able to work anymore,
633
00:35:22,276 --> 00:35:24,613
and there's no pension plan.
634
00:35:24,614 --> 00:35:26,049
Nico needed more.
635
00:35:26,050 --> 00:35:28,353
So, you thought,
by pushing one son,
636
00:35:28,354 --> 00:35:31,092
you could help both of them?
637
00:35:31,093 --> 00:35:33,330
TJ was his brother's keeper.
638
00:35:33,331 --> 00:35:35,500
If he had a future,
then so did Nico.
639
00:35:35,501 --> 00:35:37,172
Right. And maybe that worry,
640
00:35:37,173 --> 00:35:40,345
that need, made you
a little reckless?
641
00:35:41,548 --> 00:35:43,284
Maybe.
642
00:35:46,290 --> 00:35:47,559
So can I ask, Mrs. Ellis,
643
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:49,128
how the form that
I have here is...
644
00:35:49,129 --> 00:35:50,498
No.
645
00:35:50,499 --> 00:35:52,669
- What?
- No more questions.
646
00:35:52,670 --> 00:35:53,838
Not in front of her boy.
647
00:35:53,839 --> 00:35:55,207
Are you out of your...
648
00:35:55,208 --> 00:35:56,777
This is the key
piece of evidence.
649
00:35:56,778 --> 00:35:58,648
- Counselor?
- Uh just, just one moment,
650
00:35:58,649 --> 00:36:00,484
Your Honor, I'm sorry.
This is the reason
651
00:36:00,485 --> 00:36:02,021
we took things to trial
in the first place.
652
00:36:02,022 --> 00:36:03,858
She checked a box on a form.
653
00:36:03,859 --> 00:36:06,329
It wouldn't have made
any difference anyway.
654
00:36:06,330 --> 00:36:10,438
I can't make this right,
but I can at least do this.
655
00:36:16,952 --> 00:36:19,857
No further questions for
the witness, Your Honor.
656
00:36:38,260 --> 00:36:39,563
Do you promise to
tell the truth,
657
00:36:39,564 --> 00:36:41,567
the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth?
658
00:36:41,568 --> 00:36:42,770
Yes.
659
00:36:45,910 --> 00:36:49,281
Have you heard of the myth
of Daedalus and Icarus?
660
00:36:49,282 --> 00:36:53,156
Uh, sure. Uh, don't get
too close to the sun,
661
00:36:53,157 --> 00:36:54,526
that whole thing. Yeah.
662
00:36:54,527 --> 00:36:56,563
You're not the first to
make that comparison.
663
00:36:56,564 --> 00:37:00,037
It's told as a tale
of Icarus's hubris,
664
00:37:00,038 --> 00:37:02,274
but who do you think
was responsible
665
00:37:02,275 --> 00:37:05,281
for Icarus taking flight?
The boy or the man?
666
00:37:05,282 --> 00:37:06,717
I made a mistake.
667
00:37:06,718 --> 00:37:08,721
I should have said something
as soon as I found out.
668
00:37:08,722 --> 00:37:11,360
You told police that
upon discovering
669
00:37:11,361 --> 00:37:13,463
TJ Ellis's steroid abuse,
670
00:37:13,464 --> 00:37:16,637
that you confiscated the
steroids on April 16th,
671
00:37:16,638 --> 00:37:20,210
eight days before the State
Championships, correct?
672
00:37:20,211 --> 00:37:22,381
- Yes.
- What happens when someone
673
00:37:22,382 --> 00:37:25,956
quits using steroids
cold turkey for one week?
674
00:37:25,957 --> 00:37:27,626
I don't... I don't know.
675
00:37:27,627 --> 00:37:29,328
Can you read the
highlighted portion
676
00:37:29,329 --> 00:37:32,536
of this paper from the New
England Science Monitor?
677
00:37:38,014 --> 00:37:39,482
Uh...
678
00:37:39,483 --> 00:37:41,452
"The immediate
cessation of high-dose,
679
00:37:41,453 --> 00:37:43,958
long-term anabolic steroid use
680
00:37:43,959 --> 00:37:47,699
can cause weakness, fatigue,
and muscle and joint pain.
681
00:37:47,700 --> 00:37:49,703
Users are advised to taper off
682
00:37:49,704 --> 00:37:52,275
over a period of
four to six weeks."
683
00:37:56,450 --> 00:37:59,422
If the sudden stoppage
of steroid use
684
00:37:59,423 --> 00:38:03,429
causes catastrophic effects
on athletic performance,
685
00:38:03,430 --> 00:38:06,235
TJ's heart would have
had to work twice as hard
686
00:38:06,236 --> 00:38:07,672
to win that match.
687
00:38:07,673 --> 00:38:09,275
His future was on the line!
688
00:38:09,276 --> 00:38:12,214
A future your negligence
deprived him of.
689
00:38:12,215 --> 00:38:13,917
Objection, Your
Honor, if I may...
690
00:38:13,918 --> 00:38:17,793
You know, if this guy Daedalus
thought it was worth it
691
00:38:17,794 --> 00:38:21,533
to use wax wings to
help his son escape,
692
00:38:21,534 --> 00:38:25,809
then I'll bet he knew that
staying trapped in that maze
693
00:38:25,810 --> 00:38:27,211
was an even bigger risk.
694
00:38:27,212 --> 00:38:29,114
Yes...
695
00:38:29,115 --> 00:38:32,355
It was a risk to let TJ compete.
696
00:38:32,356 --> 00:38:35,227
But it was a risk to
let him stay in a town
697
00:38:35,228 --> 00:38:37,098
that had nothing to offer him.
698
00:38:37,099 --> 00:38:39,035
I know, I lived that life.
699
00:38:39,036 --> 00:38:40,839
And I'm the lucky one.
700
00:38:41,508 --> 00:38:44,078
Of the guys who were
on my wrestling team,
701
00:38:44,079 --> 00:38:46,015
four of them are dead.
702
00:38:46,016 --> 00:38:48,687
One of them overdosed.
703
00:38:48,688 --> 00:38:50,457
One of them took his own life.
704
00:38:50,458 --> 00:38:52,996
One of them wrapped his
car around a telephone pole
705
00:38:52,997 --> 00:38:54,431
after a fifth of vodka.
706
00:38:54,432 --> 00:38:56,637
And one of 'em
had a heart attack
707
00:38:56,638 --> 00:38:59,108
and it took his
neighbor three days
708
00:38:59,109 --> 00:39:00,545
to find him on his
bathroom floor.
709
00:39:00,546 --> 00:39:03,585
I thought I was
saving TJ from that.
710
00:39:08,962 --> 00:39:11,033
I thought if I pushed him...
711
00:39:12,503 --> 00:39:14,406
he could get out.
712
00:39:19,784 --> 00:39:22,422
But I pushed him
right into the sun.
713
00:39:25,663 --> 00:39:29,201
Well, I heard on the TV that uh,
714
00:39:29,202 --> 00:39:31,507
even if they find you guilty,
715
00:39:31,508 --> 00:39:34,713
you're not gonna
get the full five.
716
00:39:34,714 --> 00:39:36,784
Maybe three.
717
00:39:37,318 --> 00:39:39,724
You were always great
at pep talks, Pop.
718
00:39:40,726 --> 00:39:41,928
Well...
719
00:39:43,031 --> 00:39:46,737
If you'd invited me to the
trial, I would have come.
720
00:39:46,738 --> 00:39:50,243
Pop, you're in no shape
721
00:39:50,244 --> 00:39:52,515
to spend eight hours at a trial.
722
00:39:52,516 --> 00:39:58,093
Sounds like you got a little
emotional on the stand.
723
00:39:59,497 --> 00:40:03,070
It made it seem like
it was your fault.
724
00:40:04,507 --> 00:40:08,112
- Maybe it was my fault.
- Yeah, but you don't admit it.
725
00:40:08,113 --> 00:40:11,252
Ha. You never admit anything.
726
00:40:11,253 --> 00:40:14,225
All right, you did
the right thing.
727
00:40:14,226 --> 00:40:15,695
The kid wanted to
become a champion,
728
00:40:15,696 --> 00:40:17,164
you made him a champion.
729
00:40:17,165 --> 00:40:18,499
You didn't know him.
730
00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:20,170
Don't talk about what he wanted.
731
00:40:20,171 --> 00:40:21,741
Why? You want to
train a horse,
732
00:40:21,742 --> 00:40:23,410
you gotta break it first.
733
00:40:23,411 --> 00:40:25,581
You never rode a
horse in your life.
734
00:40:25,582 --> 00:40:29,221
No, but I raised
a son, didn't I?
735
00:40:29,222 --> 00:40:30,659
Same thing.
736
00:40:40,478 --> 00:40:43,652
I never told TJ how
proud I was of him.
737
00:40:45,488 --> 00:40:47,125
He knew.
738
00:40:48,862 --> 00:40:52,736
If Justin had come back to
Moss Hill after college...
739
00:40:55,709 --> 00:40:58,080
Would you still've picked me?
740
00:41:00,484 --> 00:41:02,823
Would any of this have happened?
741
00:41:05,963 --> 00:41:09,603
You remember how cold it was
that fall after graduation?
742
00:41:12,442 --> 00:41:16,116
I was staring down
the next five decades
743
00:41:16,117 --> 00:41:18,053
restocking shelves.
744
00:41:20,157 --> 00:41:22,294
And it was snowing in October.
745
00:41:24,667 --> 00:41:26,537
I hated the cold.
746
00:41:29,711 --> 00:41:32,048
But you took me sledding.
747
00:41:35,154 --> 00:41:37,993
I wanted to see my
life through your eyes.
748
00:41:39,864 --> 00:41:42,569
Thought maybe it
would rub off on me.
749
00:41:44,205 --> 00:41:45,876
But it didn't.
750
00:41:46,645 --> 00:41:48,882
Maybe it still could.
751
00:42:04,279 --> 00:42:07,050
We the jury, in the
case of the Commonwealth
752
00:42:07,051 --> 00:42:09,990
of Pennsylvania
versus Justin Ward,
753
00:42:09,991 --> 00:42:14,032
find the defendant guilty
of involuntary manslaughter.
754
00:42:17,072 --> 00:42:19,175
Jury, thank
you for your service.
755
00:42:19,176 --> 00:42:20,644
Given the potential penalty,
756
00:42:20,645 --> 00:42:23,951
I'm ordering the defendant
held pending sentencing,
757
00:42:23,952 --> 00:42:26,557
which will occur
October the 21st.
758
00:42:26,558 --> 00:42:28,093
This court is now adjourned.
759
00:42:28,094 --> 00:42:30,331
All rise.
760
00:43:25,742 --> 00:43:29,683
