06:33Ryan, this is what happens when you insist on doing things your way.
06:37If you walk into that courtroom today, you'll never see your mother's body again.
06:42Derek pointed at the pig inside the casket.
06:44Look, doesn't it look exactly like your mom?
06:48Tessa and I went through a lot to find such a perfect replacement.
06:52You'll get your mother's body back after my brother is found not guilty.
06:55I didn't think Tessa and Derek could sink this low.
06:58They were doing everything they could to stop me from going into court.
07:01They still thought the dead woman was my mother.
07:03As immediate family, if I refuse forgiveness, Tessa's letter meant nothing.
07:07I punched Derek in the face.
07:09You piece of shit!
07:11Tessa screamed and jumped in front of him.
07:14Ryan, do you want me to send you to prison too?
07:17The ones who belong in prison are you two!
07:20Did you forget I'm a lawyer? I won't be the one ending up in prison.
07:23You can't threaten me. You better get this straight.
07:26Do you want to appear in court or do you want your mother's body?
07:28Tessa, has it ever crossed your mind that this isn't my mother's body?
07:32It's your mother's.
07:34Tessa didn't buy it.
07:36My mom was decent and out honest.
07:39There's no way a good college kid would stab her.
07:42Then she pulled out her phone and facetuned someone.
07:45With one word from me, your mother's body will rot with maggots.
07:49On the screen, Susan's body was being dragged toward a septic tank.
07:53As they pulled her, an old burn scar showed on her forearm.
07:58Susan once told me about that scar.
08:00When Tessa was little, she knocked over a kettle of boiling water.
08:04Susan threw herself in front of her and got burned.
08:06Later, she lied and called it a birthmark so Tessa would not feel bad about it.
08:12Derek's eyes narrowed.
08:13He pointed at the scar before I could speak.
08:17Tessa, Ryan's mom really is insane.
08:19It wasn't enough for her to dress like your mom.
08:21Now she had to copy her birthmark too.
08:23For a second, Tessa looked unsure.
08:26Then her face turned to pure disgust.
08:28My mom has a birthmark.
08:30His mom probably burned her up to fake it.
08:32That is so pathetic.
08:34Ryan, I didn't know your mom was this sick.
08:36And my mom always said your mom was a good person.
08:39That was a lie.
08:40My mom was never copying Susan.
08:42She knew Susan had a hard life.
08:44Whenever she bought clothes or jewelry, she bought Susan the same set.
08:48Susan was grateful for that.
08:50That was why she had always been good to me.
08:52My chest taped me.
08:53But I still tried to stop Tessa.
08:55She really is your mother.
08:57And that is not a birthmark.
08:59She got that burn protecting you.
09:02This dead woman having the same mark as your mom is bad luck.
09:07Why not cut it off?
09:08Then he grabbed the phone and told the people on the other end to do it.
09:11I lunged for the phone.
09:12Tina swung her purse straight into my face.
09:16I think Derek's right.
09:18You are not going to bully him again.
09:20You are not going to bully him again.
09:22On the screen, they were already cutting into Susan's arm and making it even worse.
09:30Tessa, do you have any humanity left?
09:33You are the one with no humanity.
09:34You are the one trying to send Derek's brother to prison.
09:39I gave you a chance.
09:41You are the one who threw it away.
09:45Throw the body into the septic tank.
09:49I watched Susan's body get dumped into the tank.
09:52Then she looked at me like she had won and walked into the courthouse with Derek.
09:56The trial officially began.
09:58The judge started reading the basic facts.
10:02The defendant, Damien Hayes, stabbed the victim, Susan Monroe, after a conflict during a thief.
10:08The stabbing caused Susan Monroe's death.
10:10Tessa's face went blank.
10:12Susan Monroe, the judge said.
10:14She blooded it out before she could stop herself.
10:17There has to be a mistake.
10:19How could that be Susan Monroe?
10:21No mistake.
10:24The victim is your mother, Susan Monroe.
10:33Tessa's face frozen.
10:35She asked the judge to see the case file.
10:37And there it was.
10:38The victim was her mother.
10:40She forced out a smile that looked worse than crying.
10:43My mom is fine.
10:44She was fine.
10:45How could she be dead?
10:48Her hand shook as she called Susan.
10:50Then a phone rang, from the evidence table.
10:52It was Susan's phone.
10:53Even the ringtone was the one Tessa had picked for her.
10:56Tears rushed into her eyes.
10:57She turned to me and screamed.
10:58How did you bribe this many people to lie to me?
11:01Just days ago she was talking about bringing me homemade sausage.
11:03How could she be dead?
11:04I'm not that powerful.
11:06I looked at her from across the courtroom.
11:08My eyes were cold.
11:10And false accusations come with legal consequences.
11:13We're in court, counselor.
11:15You should be careful what you say.
11:17I had told her the truth more than once.
11:19She was the one who refused to believe it.
11:23Tessa broke down.
11:28Ryan!
11:28You knew it was my mother and you still didn't tell me!
11:31You did that on purpose, didn't you?
11:33How can you be this cruel?
11:35She tried to rush me and claw at me.
11:37I looked at her.
11:37She was beyond saving.
11:39Even now, she still thought this was my fault.
11:42Court officers dragged her back to her seat.
11:44At that point, there was no way she could keep acting as defense counsel.
11:48This was a murder case, and Tessa and I had been fighting publicly.
11:51So a lot of relatives had shown up for the hearing.
11:54Didn't Tessa say the dead woman was her husband's mother?
11:57So it was her own mom?
11:58Now they were finally starting to piece it together.
12:01They whispered to each other in disbelief.
12:03Whose mother it was doesn't even matter.
12:05Defending a killer like this is wrong either way.
12:09I heard he stabbed her 20 times.
12:12How can that girl not know right from wrong anymore?
12:15The way they looked at Tessa completely changed.
12:17It was all contempt.
12:19Tessa was so ashamed she could barely stand it.
12:21And then she remembered what she had done.
12:24She had thrown her own mother's body into a septic tank.
12:29Regret hit her all at once.
12:31She panicked and demanded people pull the body out.
12:34Then she left early.
12:37But Derek stayed.
12:39When Tessa learned the truth, he wasn't surprised at all.
12:42The second she left, he took over the defense for his brother.
12:46Then Derek pulled out the forgiveness letter Tessa had written.
12:49He looked at me like he had already won.
12:52Like even after Tessa knew the truth, he could still get his brother found not guilty.
12:57That meant one thing.
12:59Derek had known from the start who his brother killed.
13:02What he wanted was Tessa's forgiveness letter.
13:04And because he knew I cared about Susan,
13:06he tortured her body to get back at me for trying to fire him from the law firm.
13:10Tessa, this is the man you chose.
13:13Vile to the core.
13:14But I came prepared.
13:17I also submitted evidence that made Tessa's letter invalid.
13:20It was the recording from that day.
13:23The one where Tessa brought Derek to force me to sign.
13:26Derek pulled out a psychiatric diagnosis from a top hospital.
13:30Then he kept talking.
13:31But it all came down to one thing.
13:33He was trying to use an insanity defense to get his killer brother off.
13:39My brother had a mental disorder.
13:41As far as I knew, this had been Tessa's backup plan.
13:45After all these years as a lawyer,
13:47she had plenty of tricks for helping guilty people walk.
13:49She was just using them for the wrong side.
13:52What she forgot was I used to be a damn good lawyer too.
13:55I understood every one of these moves.
13:57I only gave up my own career to push hers forward
13:59and handle everything else so she had nothing to worry about.
14:07And I had connections too.
14:09So getting proof that Tessa had faked that psychiatric diagnosis was not hard.
14:13From the second Tessa decided to defend Derek's brother,
14:16I had people watching them.
14:18I submitted the evidence.
14:20How do you even have this?
14:21Tessa said this plan was foolproof.
14:23If you don't want people finding out, don't do it.
14:25A murderer belongs behind bars.
14:27In the end, Derek's brother was convicted.
14:31He stabbed Susan 20 times and avoided the vital organs on purpose.
14:35That was an especially brutal killing.
14:38His brother was sentenced to life in prison.
14:42When we came out of the courthouse,
14:44Tessa was back from trying to recover her mother's body.
14:47The smell on her was so bad, people covered their noses.
14:50Tessa didn't notice the looks.
14:53Derek, you pushed me into this.
14:54You're the reason I dumped my mother's body into a septic tank.
14:56I'm not letting this go.
14:58And you knew from the start that the dead woman was my mother, didn't you?
15:00Otherwise, why did you keep stopping me from reading the full case file?
15:02And your brother, he didn't just kill my mom.
15:04He also did those things to her body.
15:06He is never getting out of prison.
15:07Tessa was screaming so hard, she was shaking.
15:10Tears and snot ran down her face.
15:13She looked completely wrecked.
15:16Derek shoved Tessa away with open disgust.
15:20You were the one who said your plan would get my brother off.
15:23So why did he end up with life?
15:26Tessa froze for a second.
15:27Then she burst out laughing.
15:29Life in prison is still too good for him.
15:32He should have gotten the death penalty.
15:34Write another forgiveness letter for my brother.
15:36It was when not letting him sit in prison.
15:38You said it yourself.
15:39He just went off to college.
15:40His life is just starting.
15:42It can't be ruined like this.
15:43That was because you misled me.
15:45I only did all that because I thought the dead woman was Ryan's mother.
15:49After she shouted that, she looked at me.
15:51Then guilt flashed across her face.
15:53I let out a mocking laugh.
15:54I had no interest in watching the two of them tear each other apart.
15:58Once I got in the car, Quinn turned from the passenger seat and smiled at me.
16:02So, total win?
16:04Quinn was also a lawyer at Tessa's firm.
16:07She'd been pushed around for a long time because she couldn't stand how Tessa twisted
16:10the truth and helped monsters walk free.
16:12Quinn had already been planning to quit.
16:14Then all of this happened.
16:15I needed someone inside the firm to keep an eye on Tessa and Derek.
16:18Quinn figured out what I wanted and offered to help.
16:20But she had one condition.
16:22I couldn't stop her from exposing everything Tessa had done.
16:25She wanted Tessa ruined.
16:26At first, I still wanted to leave Tessa some dignity.
16:28Then she did all that.
16:29I was done.
16:30So I agreed.
16:30But I still didn't feel happy.
16:32It's about Susan, isn't it?
16:35Don't blame yourself too much.
16:37You tried to stop it.
16:39When I got home, I shipped out all the things I had already packed up for Tessa.
16:42She called me.
16:43I didn't answer.
16:43Then she texted me.
16:45She said she wanted to give Susan a proper funeral and hoped I would come.
16:47I went.
16:48I went there for Susan.
16:50Tessa held a huge funeral.
16:51The second she saw me, she walked straight toward me like she wanted to say something.
16:54I spoke first.
16:55Can you sign the divorce papers now?
16:57You really want to divorce me?
16:59I almost found that funny.
17:01Did she really think there was still any chance for us?
17:04Ryan, can we not do this?
17:06I was fooled by Derek.
17:07That bastard lied to me.
17:09All those clothes and jewelry your mom bought for my mom, he always told me he bought them.
17:13I only have my mom and I just want to protect her memory.
17:17That's why I did those things.
17:18Please forgive me.
17:20That only made it more ridiculous.
17:22Derek was never even good at lying.
17:24He came from an ordinary family.
17:27He made three grand a month.
17:28How was he supposed to buy gifts worth hundreds of thousands?
17:33Even if you were fooled, you wanted to be fooled.
17:35Deep down, you already had a problem with my mom.
17:38I just don't understand why.
17:48Why?
17:49Why?
17:49Because she looked down on me.
17:50She never thought I was good enough for you.
17:52She never wanted us together, right?
17:54My mom was sharp.
17:56Back then, she told me Tessa was too sensitive and too fragile.
17:59She said that kind of mind could lead someone to do things they could never take back.
18:03And even if my mom didn't want us married at first, she treated you more than well after we got
18:07married.
18:08When you wanted to start your law firm, she used her connections to send powerful clients your way.
18:12She introduced you to people who mattered.
18:14She helped build your name.
18:16The only reason you became a star attorney this fast was because my mom helped you.
18:21That's not true.
18:22I became a top lawyer because I'm good at what I do.
18:26I earned that on my own.
18:28Sure, you're talented.
18:30But talent alone doesn't land you a jewelry mogul as a client right after you start working.
18:36You couldn't have done that.
18:38You wouldn't have even gotten in the room.
18:41What I said was harsh.
18:42It was also true.
18:44And this time, Tessa had nothing to say.
18:47My mom's quiet help had pushed her far past the level her real experience could carry.
18:53That was why she lost herself so fast.
18:55Ryan, I'm sorry.
18:59You never told me.
19:00I know I shouldn't have been so blindly confident.
19:04But I wanted so badly to prove myself.
19:07That doesn't matter now.
19:08Sign the divorce papers.
19:10I won't sign.
19:11You still love me.
19:13Don't you?
19:14What gave you that idea?
19:16You think I still have feelings for someone who hurt me and hurt my mother like that?
19:20But you still helped get justice for my mom in court, didn't you?
19:23That was your mother.
19:23She deserved justice.
19:24And every person who came to this funeral came for her, not for you.
19:27Tessa, do you really think you can do all those vile things and walk away with no price to pay?
19:30I sued you too.
19:31For desecrating a corpse.
19:33For violating legal ethics.
19:34For giving false evidence.
19:35You can't do this to me.
19:39Why not?
19:39In the end, she agreed to sign.
19:46Once I had the papers, I lit incense for Susan and left.
20:00Tessa refused to give up.
20:02Every day, she either sent flowers or had gifts delivered.
20:10Whatever you decide, I'll support you.
20:12I just want you to be happy.
20:16She had always been that kind of person.
20:24I'm not forgiving Tessa.
20:26What she did doesn't deserve forgiveness.
20:29A failed marriage doesn't define your whole life.
20:32And don't blame yourself too much.
20:35My son already did more than enough.
20:42I didn't expect this.
20:44But before Tessa's case even went to trial, Derek sued her too.
20:52Back when Tessa covered for him and cleaned up his messes, she had helped create a lot of false evidence.
20:59Now he brought it all to light.
21:02He also had plenty of dirt on the other lawyers at the firm.
21:05No one pitied her.
21:06Everyone thought she had it coming.
21:07Derek dumped everything online too.
21:09Then, he smeared Susan's name and claimed she was mentally unstable and had come on to his brother.
21:14He said his brother snapped from humiliation and killed her in the heat of the moment.
21:19He was obviously still making one last push to get his brother's sentence reduced.
21:24If the dead woman had really been my mom, that smear would have landed on her instead.
21:28That had been one of Tessa's backup plans too.
21:31Now Derek was using all of it on her.
21:33Tessa already hated Derek for what he and his brother did and his brother to her mother's body.
21:38Now this pushed her completely over the edge.
21:40She stormed off to confront him.
21:41And somehow, she killed him.
21:43She stabbed him 20 times.
21:45Exactly 20.
21:46But she used a meat cleaver, so Derek's body was hacked to pieces.
21:5020 stab wounds.
21:53How is that a crime of passion?
22:02Tessa went to prison too.
22:04I took over her law firm.
22:05That also meant Quinn no longer had to quit.
22:08As for the other lawyers, I replaced almost all of them.
22:11They had thrown away their ethics too.
22:12All to prop up Tessa and Derek.
22:14A lot of people get trapped with no way to speak up because of lawyers with no ethics.
22:18So I launched a legal aid program that charged clients nothing.
22:22I wanted more people like Damien to actually face justice.
22:25The work was free for the clients.
22:27I paid the firm's lawyers out of my own pocket.
22:30No one pushed back.
22:31Quinn frowned at me.
22:33What do you take me for?
22:35This matters.
22:36I want to do it.
22:38What about everyone else?
22:39If you refuse payment, they'll feel weird taking it.
22:43Doing good still has to pay the bills.
22:45Right?
22:46You're still the same.
22:48My chest tightened.
22:49I looked away.
22:51I could tell Quinn liked me.
22:53But after everything, I wasn't ready to think about love again.
22:57Not yet.
22:58I had been out of law for years.
23:00I was rusty.
23:01But Quinn never got tired of helping me.
23:04She walked me through cases.
23:07Slowly, I stopped fighting it.
23:09I told myself I'd let things happen when they happened.
23:13Less than a year later, Tessa died in prison.
23:16I heard one of the people she had wrongfully put away killed her.
23:19That ending did not surprise me.
23:22If she had any humanity left at all, maybe her life would not have ended there.
23:26Do you think your mom would like this?
23:28Maybe we should bring more gifts.
23:32I know after cremation you'd have money on a burial plot.
23:37You don't have to overthink it.
23:39She'll like anything you bring.
23:40Because my mom had always believed the same thing.
23:43The thought was what mattered.
23:45If it came from the heart, it was enough.
23:49No way.
23:50This is my first time meeting her.
23:51I need to make a good impression.
23:56Quinn and I had started dating.
23:57I was taking her home for dinner.
23:59I had a feeling my mom would like her.
24:01And I was right.
24:02The second my mom met Quinn, she took her hand and started telling her story after story about me.
24:09Quinn loved every second of it.
24:12She listened.
24:13She laughed.
24:14She gave my mom all the warmth in the world.
24:17I thought you'd never open your heart again.
24:18I've always believed people have to keep moving forward.
24:21So I'm glad you figured that out.
24:22Quinn is a good woman.
24:23Don't you dare mess this up.
24:24I know.
24:24I'll be good to her.
24:25Mom was right.
24:26People have to move forward.
24:27Everything behind me was finally over.
24:28That chapter was closed for good.
24:30That chapter was closed for good.
24:31That chapter was closed for good.
24:31That chapter was closed for good.
24:31That chapter was closed for good.
24:32That chapter was closed for good.
24:32That chapter was closed for good.
24:32Gracias.
