00:00You know I was 12 years old when my stepfather first started having sex with me. He was nice to me. You can all survive Simon. You just don't have to be so damn sad doing it.
00:09This is the first time Rachel's told anyone about her past. But she's describing her experience through lies. What she didn't expect. Simon believed her and he told her grandma about it.
00:19I talked to your grandmother about what you told me.
00:21Why?
00:22I didn't have any choice.
00:23Everybody knows I lied. Nobody believes me.
00:25I believe you.
00:25That night when she got home, grandma was waiting at the door, pressing her for the truth.
00:30I'm going to ask you once and I'll know whether you're telling me the truth or not because you are a part of me.
00:35Did Arnold molest you?
00:37Rachel's eyes said it all. Grandma couldn't believe what she was hearing.
00:41First thing the next morning, she called Rachel's mom. No answer. She kept calling.
00:46When Rachel's mom got the message, she rushed over right away. But she wasn't there to comfort her daughter.
00:51She's a destructive liar.
00:53Why are you here, Lily?
00:54Arnold denied it. I asked him. Flat out. Never happened. She's paying me back for banishing her out here. It's as simple as that.
01:03That night when Rachel came home, she was met with her mom's accusations and distrust. They argued from the first floor to the second. Rachel locked herself in her room. Her mom knelt outside the door, pouring out her feelings.
01:15I just... I didn't want to be like my mother. With her good and bad and how old...
01:22Rachel couldn't take it anymore. She swung the door open.
01:24He never touched me.
01:27He never climbed on top of me.
01:29He never put his hand on my thigh when your head was turned at the table at dinner.
