00:00:36Oh my God.
00:00:39You have to really waste it.
00:00:43You can say that again.

00:00:59Go!
00:01:00Lizzie!
00:01:01I can't!
00:01:20Hey Meg.
00:01:21You got a plait?
00:01:23Nah, I just need some air.
00:01:25Lizzie Kate's here.
00:01:27Okay, I'm coming.
00:01:29This is my friend Lauren.
00:01:31Hi.
00:01:31Hi.
00:01:32It's a pretty necklace.
00:01:35Hi Kate.
00:01:36I wore a necklace just like that for my next birthday.
00:01:38The last time she came over you wanted her earrings.
00:01:40That's cause her sister's smart Lizzie.
00:01:42She knows I've always got great taste.
00:01:44Yeah.
00:01:45Tell mom we'll be home around midnight.
00:01:46You're supposed to leave a phone number.
00:01:48I really like her.
00:01:50Well that's cause she fights with you all the time.
00:01:52That's true.
00:01:54Oh, you think this is going to be a good party?
00:01:57I hope so.
00:01:58Me too.
00:01:59Thanks for having fun.
00:02:12Be right back.
00:02:13Okay.
00:02:14I think I'm going to put the top up.
00:02:23I got it.
00:02:24No, no I got it.
00:02:25I got it.
00:02:26What are you doing?
00:02:27Hey Lizzie.
00:02:28Hi Ben.
00:02:29Kate's in the car.
00:02:30Are you sure you're not coming down with something?
00:02:32Mom.
00:02:33Lizzie I'm putting you in charge.
00:02:34If she seems like she's even a little bit run down.
00:02:37I'll bring her home.
00:02:38I promise.
00:02:40What would I do without you?
00:02:41I swear she likes you better than me.
00:02:43So does he.
00:02:45See you Lizzie.
00:02:47Bye Ben.
00:03:02Okay.
00:03:06Okay, so three wine coolers, six pack for Dylan and a pint of tequila.
00:03:11Is that it?
00:03:11I think so.
00:03:12Do you have the ID?
00:03:13Yeah.
00:03:15Right here.
00:03:16Looks great.
00:03:17Have we used it here before?
00:03:19No, but Vanessa did.
00:03:21Anyway, she said they never check.
00:03:23Wish me luck.
00:03:23Good luck.
00:03:28Oh, that girl's got nerve.
00:03:30She's always been like that.
00:03:32I can remember she was the same back in preschool.
00:03:35Things any better with your parents?
00:03:37Not really.
00:03:38Are they still fighting all the time?
00:03:40Yep.
00:03:41It sounds like my parents before they got divorced.
00:03:44But they are seeing a marriage counselor, so I think they want to work it out.
00:03:47That's good.
00:03:49Uh oh.
00:03:51Oh no.
00:03:52He's not going to take it.
00:04:10That was close.
00:04:12We really thought he was going to bust you.
00:04:14Yeah.
00:04:14Let's get out of here, Ron.
00:04:15You lose his mind.
00:04:20Oh, my God.
00:04:39Hey, girls.
00:04:47Hi.
00:04:48Hi.
00:04:48Hi, Katie.
00:04:57Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
00:04:59Woohoo!
00:05:09That's it.
00:05:10Oh, come on.
00:05:11It was such a pause.
00:05:12No, really.
00:05:13I'm out.
00:05:14Hey, Lizzie, how you doing?
00:05:15I'm good.
00:05:16Did you know your sister's crazy?
00:05:18Yeah, so what else is new?
00:05:20Listen, I want to know if they want to go to the big graduation party with me at the country
00:05:23club.
00:05:24Does Jenny know about this?
00:05:25Yeah, I got her permission to ask.
00:05:27I'm sorry, I didn't mean it that way.
00:05:29I know, I know.
00:05:30It kind of gets a little weird.
00:05:31Do you want to go?
00:05:32Sure.
00:05:34Cool.
00:05:39Lizzie, some best friend that you are.
00:05:42You mean about Ben and the graduation party?
00:05:44Yes.
00:05:45Ben said you knew he was going to ask.
00:05:47That doesn't mean I approved.
00:05:49We know what a drag it is all the time, your brother hang around with you everywhere.
00:05:52A stepbrother.
00:05:54Well, it's still a drag.
00:05:56Did you hear? Dylan's having another party this weekend.
00:05:58Are his parents going out of town again?
00:06:00I don't know, but remember that amazingly cute guy at his last one?
00:06:04Yeah.
00:06:04The one you are dancing with?
00:06:05Mm-hmm.
00:06:05He's going to be there.
00:06:07So I better buy a new wonder bra.
00:06:09Oh!
00:06:14This award assembly has become a very special day for all of us.
00:06:17Parents, teachers, and students alike.
00:06:20Because it gives us an opportunity to salute outstanding achievements in academics and community service.
00:06:25So let us begin.
00:06:27In the 12th grade, outstanding achievement in science goes to Lizzie Williams.
00:06:37Congratulations.
00:06:40I'm crushing.
00:06:42I think it's just the lights.
00:06:46In the 12th grade, outstanding achievement in math goes to Janie Palmer.
00:06:55Congratulations, Janie.
00:06:56Well done.
00:06:58I promised Janie I would cry.
00:07:00Outstanding achievement in math goes to Janie Palmer.
00:07:10What a great day, huh?
00:07:12I know.
00:07:12I love seeing them get those awards.
00:07:14I'm sure going to miss them next year when they go to college.
00:07:17I sure will.
00:07:19And I'm going to miss these times that the girls have brought us together.
00:07:24I know.
00:07:25Wow.
00:07:28All right, ladies, come and get them.
00:07:30My fat and my calories.
00:07:31They're worth every bite.
00:07:34I saw you crying at the awards, Mom.
00:07:37I tried not to.
00:07:38I really did.
00:07:38Ask Val.
00:07:39No, she really did.
00:07:40I'm just so proud of you two.
00:07:43Hey, where's Ben?
00:07:44You should be here.
00:07:45Baseball practice.
00:07:47Ah.
00:07:48Honey, would you go get us some more iced tea?
00:07:50Sure.
00:07:51Anybody need anything else?
00:07:53Well, I will have just a little more wine.
00:08:07Mmm.
00:08:09Yes.
00:08:14Some wine, mademoiselle.
00:08:17This party's supposed to be for us, isn't it?
00:08:20Anyway, no one's looking.
00:08:23Friends to the end?
00:08:25Friends to the end.
00:08:35That's not what I meant.
00:08:36Oh, yeah, I'm sorry, Val.
00:08:38It's never what you mean, right?
00:08:39Can we just drop this, please?
00:08:43Up until a half hour ago, we were having a really nice day.
00:08:46Dad, I don't think Mom did mean it that way.
00:08:49All right, all right.
00:08:51Let's just forget it.
00:08:55The great conciliator.
00:08:58I just hate it when you fight.
00:09:01So do we.
00:09:06Dad.
00:09:11I'm sorry.
00:09:16Honey, it was a very special day.
00:09:18And your mom and I are both very proud of you.
00:09:22Okay?
00:09:24You sure?
00:09:25Yeah.
00:09:29Where are you going?
00:09:30Mom, I have a test tomorrow.
00:09:32Oh, Lizzie, please stay and have some iced tea.
00:09:35No, Mom, really, I'm okay.
00:09:36I just, I have to study.
00:09:44Oh, death, the poor man's dearest friend, the kindest and the best.
00:09:49Welcome the hour my aged limbs are laid to rest.
00:09:54Now, it's pretty obvious what Burns was saying there.
00:09:56But what's the real life irony of that verse?
00:09:59Was he really talking about himself?
00:10:01Close.
00:10:02He may have used aged limbs as a metaphor because he was only 37 when he died of heart disease
00:10:07and exhaustion.
00:10:10Okay, gang.
00:10:11Oh, remember.
00:10:11Term papers are due on the 15th.
00:10:13Oh, one more thing.
00:10:14I know you're all gonna roll your eyes, but with graduation coming up and all the parties
00:10:19every week, you know, don't drink and drive.
00:10:21Or smoke weed or do anything else that's illegal or that will impair your judgment.
00:10:26Does that mean we can't watch MTV?
00:10:29Listen, this is serious business.
00:10:30Even more important than all the stuff you have to know for the final.
00:10:33Oh, I mean, how many times do we have to hear it and hear it and hear it?
00:10:38Come on, you guys, she's nice.
00:10:40At least it's not Mr. Parker and all those boring lectures.
00:10:42I remember students, six out of ten high school seniors are regular users of alcohol
00:10:47and bleeding cause of death between 15 and 24.
00:10:51Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:10:54Okay, so I'm collecting for tonight.
00:10:55What do you want?
00:10:57Um...
00:10:57Vicar cooler.
00:10:59Okay.
00:10:59Me too.
00:11:00And nothing for you.
00:11:01Oh, right.
00:11:02I'm the designated driver.
00:11:03Well, if that figures, when there's a good party, then it's my turn.
00:11:06Sorry, Kate.
00:11:08Aww.
00:11:16Only three place settings.
00:11:17Why? Where's Dad?
00:11:19He's not eating with us tonight.
00:11:22Are you guys getting divorced, Mom?
00:11:24Don't be stupid.
00:11:25He's just not eating at home, that's all.
00:11:26He didn't eat at home last night either.
00:11:28Well, he just has to work late for his new job.
00:11:30No, he doesn't.
00:11:31How would you know?
00:11:32Stop it, girls.
00:11:36For once, can we have a dinner where no one's fighting, please?
00:11:38I didn't do anything, please.
00:11:40Can't you see Mom's tired?
00:11:42Shut up.
00:11:43You shut up.
00:11:45I'm not really hungry.
00:11:47We're eating.
00:11:50We're sitting down together, and we're eating.
00:12:17I can't wait until graduation.
00:12:21We have to celebrate.
00:12:23Let's make a toast.
00:12:24I will get the drink.
00:12:29What are you doing?
00:12:32Didn't we just say we should celebrate?
00:12:34Give me something else.
00:12:35No problem.
00:12:36You like vodka?
00:12:37I sell vodka.
00:12:41But Lizzie has to drive us home, remember?
00:12:43Because I don't have my car.
00:12:45Duh.
00:12:45Like I didn't know.
00:12:47Hey, we're graduates.
00:12:49What?
00:12:49I know.
00:12:50What time is it?
00:12:524.30?
00:12:53If we only have one drink each, just this one.
00:12:58I don't know what I'm going to do without you guys next year.
00:13:02What are we all going to do?
00:13:04Maybe we should just forget college and stay home together.
00:13:08I love us.
00:13:09Me too.
00:13:10I love you.
00:13:12A toast.
00:13:13I drank two.
00:13:14Friends forever.

00:17:44I'm just kind of scared.
00:17:48What happens after my dad moves out?
00:17:50What if they never get back together?
00:17:52Divorce is a bitch. I'm not saying it's not.
00:17:55But after all is said and done, at least you still have a dad.
00:17:59Yeah.
00:17:59After my dad died, I sometimes thought I was going to go crazy.
00:18:03I remember.
00:18:04But you get through it somehow, and then, you know, there will be something else that comes along.
00:18:11I had this dream the other night.
00:18:15I came home from school, my parents were divorced, my house was sold.
00:18:18Hey, hey, hey, listen.
00:18:21I'm on call 24 hours a day, okay?
00:18:23Broken home hotline, huh?
00:18:26Come on, it'll be okay.
00:18:30Thanks.
00:18:40Hey.
00:18:46I know how upset you are about daddy and me.
00:18:48I'm not that upset.
00:18:51Come on, Lizzie. Let's be honest here, okay?
00:18:53Well, what do you expect me to do? Stand up and applaud?
00:18:57No.
00:18:58No.
00:18:59And I'm not saying that you shouldn't be upset, because I am too.
00:19:04But I know you, Lizzie, and I know how you hold things in sometimes.
00:19:08Thanks, Mom.
00:19:09But really, I'm fine.
00:19:10You don't have to worry about me.
00:19:14Of course I have to worry about you.
00:19:16I'm your mother.
00:19:17And if I need to talk, we will.
00:19:22Promise?
00:19:23I promise.

00:19:52Hey.
00:19:54What are you doing up?
00:19:56I couldn't sleep.
00:19:58I feel like I could sleep for about a month.
00:20:01Another hard day.
00:20:03Well, I don't know if your old dad's cut out to be a salesman.
00:20:07Used to be in charge of my whole career, and now I got a cell, and it's tougher than I
00:20:11thought it was going to be.
00:20:12Come on.
00:20:13Carry your old man in here.
00:20:15I need a drink.
00:20:20You want anything?
00:20:21No, I'm fine.

00:20:30We're just good friends.
00:20:33You sure?
00:20:35Yes.
00:20:35We just have a really good time together, that's all.
00:20:37It's no big deal.
00:20:40I don't know.
00:20:42Good time together.
00:20:44Constitutes a big deal in my book.
00:20:46Well, it's not like we're getting married or anything.
00:20:49Oh, well, that's good to hear.
00:20:54Dad.
00:20:56Yeah, honey.
00:20:58After you move out, how much will I get to see you?
00:21:01A lot.
00:21:03You'll see me all the time.
00:21:05Will you still be able to come to my games?
00:21:08Of course I'll still be able to come to your games.
00:21:10What are you talking about?
00:21:12Honey, I'm moving out of the house, not out of the country.
00:21:17Look.
00:21:19You're my girl.
00:21:21And you'll always be my girl.
00:21:24So actually, I'm pretty glad to hear that you're not getting married.
00:21:32What do you want to do this weekend?
00:21:33Let's do something.
00:21:34Come on.
00:21:35Let's go to Rainbow Falls.
00:21:38I like that.
00:21:39Well, come on.
00:21:41Let's get some sleep.

00:21:46He's so gorgeous.
00:21:52Okay.
00:21:53So, who were the members of the quadruple alliance?
00:21:55You mean the one with Metternich?
00:21:57No, the one with Madonna.
00:21:59Okay, okay.
00:21:59The members were...
00:22:01Tick, tock, tick, tock, stop.
00:22:04Tits.
00:22:05Quadruple alliance was...
00:22:07Prussia, Great Britain, Austria, and Italy?
00:22:11Eh.
00:22:11Prussia, not Italy.
00:22:13Let me see that.
00:22:14Okay, I get to ask you next time.
00:22:15Ready?
00:22:16One second.
00:22:17I have a special treat.
00:22:20What is that?
00:22:22A rare vintage wine.
00:22:24Want some?
00:22:27Dirt.
00:22:30All right, good job, guys.
00:22:33Good job, man.
00:22:34Kate?
00:22:36No way.
00:22:37How are we supposed to study and drink wine?
00:22:39Oh, come on.
00:22:39Who cares?
00:22:40Besides, I'm going into medicine, not history.
00:22:42Maybe you'd care more if you didn't have the wine.
00:22:45Thanks, Mom.
00:22:48I'll have a little more.
00:22:51Come on!
00:22:53Come on!
00:23:13We just did one round of wine.
00:23:14Come on!
00:23:14We just did one round of wine.
00:23:16No!
00:23:17Hey!
00:23:18Come on!
00:23:22All right.
00:23:25On our...
00:23:43My dad promised you'd be here.
00:23:45It's been a lousy day all around.
00:24:03Dad?
00:24:08Hey, honey. How you doing?
00:24:10What's going on? I thought you were coming to my game.
00:24:13I know. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, honey.
00:24:15I had to grab it right away.
00:24:19I had no other options. Today was the only day I could do it.
00:24:23Well, aren't you going to leave some stuff, in case you want to move back in?
00:24:26It's not as bad as it looks.
00:24:29Lizzie, your mom and I are trying to work things out.
00:24:32Once I get settled, I promise I won't miss any more games, okay?
00:24:36It's okay. I played terrible.
00:24:41How come?
00:24:43I just did.
00:24:48Lizzie, I'm sorry. I messed up your game.
00:24:51It's not your fault. I'm the one who played terrible.
00:24:55I should have.
00:24:56I should have let you know I wasn't going to be there.
00:25:01You want to give me a hand?
00:25:03Okay.
00:25:13Is your new place nice?
00:25:17No.
00:25:17That's good.
00:25:46That's good.
00:25:58Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. I've got to go. I've got to go.
00:26:01Why? Where are you going?
00:26:02I have to go home. I'm late already.
00:26:05I'll call you later, okay?
00:26:11Oh, coffee, coffee, coffee, coffee.
00:26:14I need my keys.
00:26:16So?
00:26:17You have them, remember?
00:26:19Oh, yes.
00:26:21Wait a minute. I can give you your keys.
00:26:23Kate?
00:26:23No, you're trash.
00:26:27I'm not trash.
00:26:29If I were trash, do you think I don't even care what time it is?
00:26:32How do I know this? I'm a little bit drunk.
00:26:35Kate.
00:26:36Will you please tell her to give me my keys?
00:26:39Kate, give Lizzie her keys.
00:26:41If she was drunk, she'd say so.
00:26:43Of course I would.
00:26:47Here.
00:26:49Are you coming with me?
00:26:51Yeah.
00:26:51All right.
00:26:52I'm going out.
00:27:14I'm going out.
00:27:15La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
00:27:19Oh, my God.
00:27:23You're a grossing waste.
00:27:27You can say that again.
00:27:28Sarah kept trying to introduce you to her cousin and all that.
00:27:30You kept talking to the wrong guy.
00:27:34Is he cute?
00:27:36Sort of a good-looking Tom Cruise.
00:27:39Oh, yeah, right.
00:27:42All of his music is so great.
00:27:44Yeah.
00:27:51Melissa!
00:27:55Melissa!
00:27:56I can't!
00:27:58You're a grossed actor.
00:28:02Oh, my God!
00:28:02You're a grossed actor.
00:28:02Dr. Jones 60 to are still on the bed.
00:28:04Dr. Jones 60 to are still on the bed and now.
00:28:07I can't say that.
00:28:12Stop!
00:28:16Stop!
00:28:16Dr. Jones 60.
00:28:17Oh, my God!
00:28:17Okay.
00:28:17I can't stop!
00:28:18Hi, I'm Nurse Harper.
00:28:19Dr. Horowitz would like to talk to you, Mary.
00:28:21They'll take you back.
00:28:22Janie's all right.
00:28:22The doctor will explain everything, Mary.
00:28:27Um, what about Lizzie Williams?
00:28:29Our daughters were in the accident.
00:28:30Is she okay?
00:28:31We're just trying to find out some information.
00:28:32I know, this is really difficult for you.
00:28:34I don't have any information right now.
00:28:36She's with a team of doctors.
00:28:37You know, it's starting to get a little ridiculous here.
00:28:39I mean, we just want to find out something.
00:28:40Anything.
00:28:41It won't be long.
00:28:42I promise.
00:28:43Excuse me.
00:28:44Oh, here's Dr. Larson now.
00:28:46Doctor.
00:28:48This is Mr. and Mrs. Williams.
00:28:50Hi.
00:28:51Hi.
00:28:52I think we have good news.
00:28:53Oh, thank God.
00:28:54What happened?
00:28:55Your daughter had a pretty severe concussion,
00:28:57but it appears there were no internal injuries,
00:28:59and she should be fine.
00:29:02Can we see her?
00:29:04Very soon.
00:29:04We just have to do a few more tests to be sure she's okay.
00:29:10What about Janie?
00:29:12Her friend that was in the car?
00:29:15She's still in surgery.
00:29:16That's about all I can tell you for now.
00:29:25I guess we, uh,
00:29:27we, uh, wait some more.
00:29:42She's gone.
00:29:43What are you talking about?
00:29:45Janie's dead.
00:29:47Just like that, she's dead.
00:29:49Oh, yes.
00:29:49She's, um, she's in there.
00:29:52She's lying there.
00:29:53She's all alone.
00:29:54And I don't know.
00:29:56I can't see if there's anything in the world.
00:29:59Oh, how's Lizzie?
00:30:01Um, she has a concussion,
00:30:03but do you think she's going to be okay?
00:30:05Good.
00:30:05Oh, God.
00:30:07Oh, God.
00:30:08Oh, God.
00:30:09What are we going to do?
00:30:12Oh, God.
00:30:28Lizzie.
00:30:30Honey.
00:30:35Hey, sweetheart.
00:30:37What are you doing?
00:30:39I've got a headache.
00:30:41You had a concussion,
00:30:44but the doctor said you'll be okay in a couple of days.
00:30:48Mom, where am I?
00:30:53You were in an accident.
00:30:56A bad accident.
00:30:58But you're okay, sweetheart.
00:31:00You're okay.
00:31:02A car accident?
00:31:05But I was with Janie.
00:31:07I know.
00:31:08Is she okay?
00:31:10Um, Mom, tell me.
00:31:11You need to rest.
00:31:12But I have to know how Janie is.
00:31:15We don't know.
00:31:17Well, you haven't seen her?
00:31:23Hey, Janie's not in the hospital.
00:31:26You mean she's home?
00:31:27Well, then I have to...
00:31:28No, honey.
00:31:29Why would you let me call her?
00:31:30No, honey, she...
00:31:32She's not at home.
00:31:34Where is she then?
00:31:38Janie didn't come out of surgery.
00:31:43She's dead?
00:31:45Yeah.
00:31:47No, she's not.
00:31:49She was in the car with me.
00:31:50I know, honey.
00:31:51She's not.
00:31:52I know.
00:31:52Do you hear me?
00:31:53She's not.
00:31:54I know, sweetheart.
00:31:56Baby, baby.
00:31:57But she was right with me.
00:31:58I know.
00:31:59She's my best friend.
00:32:02Daddy, don't let her die.
00:32:05Please.
00:32:07In the world of nature, we have a better understanding of such things.
00:32:11A beautiful rose blooms for a short, wondrous time, and then it's no more.
00:32:17Janie Palmer was like such a rose whose soul and spirit inspires us today.
00:32:21And that spirit, her gentleness, now sits at the right hand of the Lord.
00:32:29And now Ben would like to speak.
00:32:41The thing that I'll always remember most about Janie was her sense of humor.
00:32:49We don't know matter how bad things got, or they seem to be.
00:32:56She always found time to laugh, you know?
00:33:00She just liked having fun.
00:33:04So today, when laughing and having fun is the last thing on our minds, let's all remember
00:33:13Janie's smile and her love for life.
00:33:19And let's never forget all the joy that she brought to us.
00:33:27Thanks, Janie.
00:33:50You all right?
00:33:51She's hot.
00:33:55You know what really hurts?
00:33:56I never even got a chance to say goodbye.
00:33:59I know exactly what you mean.
00:34:00No, no, I know we fought and hassled each other a lot, but I never really told her that
00:34:05I loved her.
00:34:06She knew.
00:34:10You okay?
00:34:11You still getting those headaches?
00:34:13I'm all right.
00:34:15I'm not sleeping or eating much, but I'm okay.
00:34:18I just keep reliving that moment over and over and over.
00:34:25I'm sorry.
00:34:26I gotta get back.
00:34:28Maybe we can get together once things are okay.
00:34:32Yeah, okay.
00:34:37I'm so sorry.
00:34:416429 is registered to...
00:34:44What's up?
00:34:46Ray, this is Detective Poe.
00:34:49My husband, Ray.
00:34:50Hi.
00:34:51What can we do for you?
00:34:52I'm afraid I have some bad news.
00:34:54Your daughter's blood alcohol content was 0.12%.
00:34:58I don't understand.
00:35:00Your daughter was legally intoxicated at the time of the accident.
00:35:03Lizzie?
00:35:04That's impossible.
00:35:05Lizzie would never drink and drive.
00:35:07I'm afraid she did this time.
00:35:10Oh, my God.
00:35:12What?
00:35:13Are you here to arrest her?
00:35:14No, that's not why I'm here.
00:35:17But it looks like your daughter's in some very serious trouble.
00:35:20So I recommend you contact an attorney as soon as possible.
00:35:24No, it's not true!
00:35:26Lizzie?
00:35:27Excuse me.
00:35:29I can imagine what a shock this is.
00:35:32I have a girl about her age, too.
00:35:35Yeah, well, shock is not the right word, Detective.
00:35:38Mom, I was not drunk.
00:35:40I was not drunk!
00:35:41Lizzie?
00:35:42What happened that night?
00:35:44I wasn't drunk, I swear it!
00:35:46Did you drink?
00:35:47Everyone was drinking.
00:35:49My God, Lizzie, what the hell were you thinking?
00:35:51Janie was my best friend.
00:35:53I would not drive drunk.
00:35:55The police are saying you were drunk?
00:35:57You know what that means?
00:36:01I'm busy.
00:36:26I'm busy.
00:36:33Tell me how this happened.
00:36:36Tell me it didn't happen.
00:36:39What are we going to do, Ray?
00:36:44Nancy?
00:36:45The police just left.
00:36:47Nancy, could we come in for a minute and talk?
00:36:48No.
00:36:49There's nothing to say.
00:36:51And please don't tell me that you're sorry.
00:36:53Nancy, we love Janie like a daughter.
00:36:55You know that.
00:36:56All I know is that when I go into my daughter's room, it's empty, and I will never see her
00:37:03again.
00:37:04Nancy, you can't believe that Lizzie's anymore.
00:37:06I can't believe that you had the call to come out here.
00:37:10My Janie is dead because your daughter was drunk.
00:37:14Drunk.
00:37:15Don't you understand that?
00:37:18Lizzie killed her.
00:37:19She killed my Janie.
00:37:22She killed my Janie.
00:37:28She killed my Janie.
00:37:55Can I make a check to school or Girl Scouts?
00:37:58School.
00:38:03Whoa!
00:38:04Put this where you won't forget it, Tony.
00:38:06Where's the paper?
00:38:09Kate says I'm on the front page.
00:38:10You don't need to see it.
00:38:12I should know what people are saying about me.
00:38:14A lot of people are going to be saying a lot of things.
00:38:16You don't need to hear everything, all right?
00:38:19Okay.
00:38:22I'm sorry, but...
00:38:26Listen, honey.
00:38:28Why don't you stay home today?
00:38:29Just let things cool down a bit.
00:38:31I can't hide in my room forever.
00:38:34I'm not talking about hiding.
00:38:36But this is hard for all of us.
00:38:38And you haven't slept.
00:38:39You haven't eaten.
00:38:40Kate's picking me up in ten minutes.
00:38:43Mom, you see my soccer socks?
00:38:45They're either in the laundry or they haven't been washed yet.
00:38:48I told you I needed them for my game today.
00:38:50They're your socks.
00:38:51They're your responsibility.
00:38:53Don't get mad at me.
00:38:54I'm not the one that got drunk.
00:38:58What?
00:39:05Look, Lizzie, I'm sorry.
00:39:08I didn't mean it.
00:39:11Why don't you go check the laundry room again?
00:39:14Okay.
00:39:25You know she didn't mean that.
00:39:27I know.
00:39:32What do you think's gonna happen to me?
00:39:36Do you think I could go to jail?
00:39:39Daddy has the name of a lawyer who handles these things.
00:39:44And whatever happens, we'll be there with you.
00:39:49Daddy, too?
00:39:50Of course, Daddy, too.
00:39:54Oh, no.
00:39:54Meg, we gotta go!
00:39:57You sure you don't need to drive you?
00:39:59Yeah.
00:40:01Okay.
00:40:03I'll see you later.
00:40:04Bye.
00:40:18Bye.
00:40:18Bye.
00:40:23Bye.
00:40:27Bye.
00:40:29Bye.
00:40:34Bye.
00:40:35Bye.
00:40:36Bye.
00:40:37Bye.
00:40:37Bye.
00:40:38Bye.
00:40:39Bye.
00:40:39Bye.
00:40:40Bye.
00:40:40Bye.
00:41:12Oh, my God.
00:41:13Don't pay any attention to them, Lizzie.
00:41:16They don't know anything.
00:41:17I think I should have listened to my mom.
00:41:19I'm starting to feel really weird.
00:41:20My brother said they had something about it on the news this morning.
00:41:24God.
00:41:24Telling none of this is happening.
00:41:26You just gotta be strong.
00:41:27Hey, Ben.
00:41:29I'll see you later.
00:41:30All right.
00:41:31Oh, God.
00:41:34Hi, Ben.
00:41:35I tried to call you, but your mom hung up on me.
00:41:38You got some nerves showing up here.
00:41:40Ben, Janie was my best friend.
00:41:41No, no, don't even make excuses.
00:41:43You did something incredibly stupid, and my sister's dead.
00:41:46That's the bottom line.
00:41:47This is all your fault.
00:41:52What do you want to do?
00:41:53I think I want to go home.
00:41:55Okay.
00:42:00The main charge against Lizzie will be vehicular homicide, and that's a class A felony.
00:42:05Meaning what?
00:42:07Meaning it could carry a prison sentence of up to 24 years.
00:42:1024 years?
00:42:11Come on.
00:42:13You're not going to put Lizzie away for that.
00:42:16Your father's probably right, but there are no guarantees.
00:42:19And prison sentence or not, having a felony on your record could prevent you from practicing medicine, law, teaching.
00:42:26For good?
00:42:28For good.
00:42:29You know, this is absurd.
00:42:31Lizzie is not a criminal.
00:42:32She's a good kid.
00:42:33I mean, she made one terrible mistake.
00:42:35Exactly.
00:42:36And that's what we'll emphasize.
00:42:37She's an honor student.
00:42:39She's gotten early acceptance into one of the best colleges.
00:42:41Again, this is all in her favor.
00:42:43And the fact that she's only 17 also allows the judge a lot more flexibility.
00:42:49Nancy can't want this.
00:42:52She knows Lizzie.
00:42:56The anger victims' families feel after a death like this is profound.
00:43:01In her head, Janie's mother knows that Lizzie is a good kid, but in her heart, Lizzie killed her daughter,
00:43:06and she wants some kind of justice.
00:43:08Yeah, well, putting Lizzie behind bars is not justice.
00:43:12I mean, even without the legal consequences of this, she's going to be dealing with it for a long time.
00:43:20Mrs. Novak, what can we expect?
00:43:24If the judge is convinced of Lizzie's character and remorse, we hope for the best.
00:43:29You mean probation?
00:43:32Yes.
00:43:33And the worst?
00:43:37Lizzie'd have to go to prison.
00:43:48After being taken over tomorrow, I'll probably want to get back.
00:43:56Ray?
00:43:57Yeah.
00:43:59Thanks for being there today.
00:44:01She needed us.
00:44:03I needed you, too.
00:44:07What I can't understand is how she could do something like this.
00:44:13Well, she's a kid, Mel.
00:44:15I mean, as bright as she is, she's a kid.
00:44:18But mistake or not, she has to accept responsibility for what happened, and I...
00:44:22I think that she does.
00:44:25Lizzie knows what she did was wrong.
00:44:29I'm just so frightened for her.
00:44:31I know.
00:44:32So am I.
00:44:35But that's why we need to be there for her.
00:44:39Both of us.
00:44:41Do you think we can?
00:44:44I think we have to.
00:44:49Go, go ahead.
00:44:51Okay.
00:45:05How about this?
00:45:06Yeah.
00:45:07I think this will work.
00:45:11I'm so scared about tomorrow.
00:45:13You don't think I could go to jail, do you?
00:45:15You just stop it.
00:45:18Well, I'm not going to med school, either.
00:45:20There are plenty of other things to be than a doctor.
00:45:23Or a lawyer.
00:45:24Or a teacher.
00:45:26Might as well be dead with Janie.
00:45:29Lizzie.
00:45:35You think Janie hates me?
00:45:38I know Janie doesn't hate you.
00:45:41Well, her mother does.
00:45:42She thinks I did it on purpose.
00:45:49The only good thing about any of this is at least my parents aren't fighting anymore.
00:45:55Do you think they're going to get back together?
00:45:58I don't know.
00:46:08What is this?
00:46:09Oh, it's been there for months.
00:46:12I'm not drinking anymore.
00:46:14Me, either.
00:46:15But ever since Janie died, it's like I can't even look at alcohol.
00:46:18Yeah, I know what you mean.
00:46:24And, Miss Williams, you are aware of the severity of the charges brought against you?
00:46:29Yes, Your Honor.
00:46:31And you understand the possible consequences to an admission of guilt to these felony charges of reckless driving and vehicular
00:46:38homicide?
00:46:38Yes.
00:46:41How do you plead?
00:46:45Guilty, Your Honor.
00:46:48My daughter Janie was just 18 when she died.
00:46:52Just one month before she was to graduate with honors from Centennial High School.
00:47:00On the night of her death, I put Janie's hair up in a ponytail.
00:47:10It was something that I always did for her when she was little, and it was one of the few
00:47:14things she still let me do.
00:47:18The next time I saw my daughter, she was lying on that table in the hospital, and the only thing
00:47:27I recognized was her ponytail.
00:47:31There was nothing else left that was Janie.
00:47:35So I stand here today, Your Honor, not asking for revenge, but pleading for justice.
00:47:46Please, Your Honor, send the right message.
00:47:51Let everyone in this community know, parents, teachers, students, that to kill with a car is no different than to
00:48:03kill with a gun.
00:48:06After all, the result is the same.
00:48:11And let everyone know that what Lizzie Williams did was not simply a terrible mistake.
00:48:21It was murder.
00:48:35Thank you, Mrs. Palmer.
00:48:38Ms. Williams, would you like to say anything before final sentencing?
00:48:43Yes, Your Honor.
00:48:45Janie Palmer was my best friend.
00:48:51We sat next to each other on the first day of kindergarten,
00:48:55and we never stopped sitting together since then.
00:49:01The night Janie died, we were sitting together.
00:49:08I...
00:49:10I killed her
00:49:13because I drank and drove.
00:49:17When you're my age, Your Honor,
00:49:21nobody believes
00:49:24the things adults warn you about can ever happen to you.
00:49:27The truth is
00:49:29Janie and I drank and drove each other several times.
00:49:35So did our friends.
00:49:38Nothing ever happened.
00:49:42But that night it did.
00:49:51No matter what punishment I received today,
00:49:57it will never erase the memory
00:49:59of how she died.
00:50:05And the pain that I've caused the Palmer family
00:50:09and my own.
00:50:14I'm truly sorry.
00:50:17And I do
00:50:19accept responsibility for my actions.
00:50:27But...
00:50:29But I also believe
00:50:33that it is not fair
00:50:41to compare
00:50:42me to a common murderer.
00:50:47I loved Janie.
00:50:51It was a terrible mistake.
00:50:59I'm sorry.
00:51:02I'm sorry.
00:51:15Before I pronounce sentencing,
00:51:18I would first like to express
00:51:20this court's
00:51:22sympathy
00:51:22to the Palmer family.
00:51:24And again to thank
00:51:25Mrs. Palmer for coming here today
00:51:27and sharing her thoughts with us.
00:51:29Unfortunately,
00:51:31in a case like this,
00:51:32the
00:51:34emotional needs
00:51:35of a victim's family
00:51:36are often at odds
00:51:37with the
00:51:38severity of punishment
00:51:40a court decides.
00:51:41In this instance,
00:51:42I do believe this
00:51:44was a terrible mistake.
00:51:47A terrible tragedy.
00:51:49An accident
00:51:50in the worst
00:51:51sense of the word.
00:51:53Elizabeth Williams did
00:51:54in fact act irresponsibly.
00:51:58But she also acted
00:51:59without premeditation
00:52:00or malice.
00:52:01And I believe
00:52:03her remorse is genuine.
00:52:05And that the consequences
00:52:06of her behavior
00:52:07will follow her
00:52:08for the rest of her life.
00:52:10Therefore,
00:52:11I hereby sentence you,
00:52:12Elizabeth Williams,
00:52:13to a suspended term
00:52:15of five years in prison
00:52:17during which
00:52:18you will be on probation.
00:52:20In addition,
00:52:21this court orders you
00:52:22to attend 40 hours
00:52:23of alcohol education
00:52:24and prevention
00:52:25and 150 hours
00:52:27of community service.
00:52:32This court is adjourned.
00:52:49What does this mean?
00:52:51No jail, Lizzie.
00:52:52No jail.
00:52:53We can go home now.
00:52:54Honey.
00:52:56This is not fair.
00:52:59Janie's dead.
00:53:00And all you have to do
00:53:01is sit in some classroom.
00:53:03Nancy, please.
00:53:05What do you want from her?
00:53:07I want her to be punished
00:53:08for what she did.
00:53:09Don't you think
00:53:10I'll punish myself
00:53:11every day
00:53:12for the rest of my life?
00:53:14At least you have
00:53:15a life, Lizzie.
00:53:17Janie's dead.
00:53:35I'm sorry for you.
00:53:36At least the time
00:53:39I'm sorry for keeping you waiting.
00:53:40But with graduation coming up
00:53:41everything is so hectic around here.
00:53:43No, that's completely fine.
00:53:44Um, perhaps we should step over this way a bit.
00:53:48The reason I ask to speak with you, Mrs. Williams, is because of graduation.
00:53:53Okay.
00:53:54There's going to be a memorial for Janie Palmer at the graduation ceremony.
00:53:59Nancy Palmer has requested that Lizzie not attend.
00:54:01What?
00:54:02I know this has been a trying time for all of you,
00:54:05but out of respect for Mrs. Palmer's feelings,
00:54:07I think it would be in everyone's best interest if Lizzie didn't participate.
00:54:11I have worked very hard.
00:54:13I've been a very good student.
00:54:15I know, and I understand how you feel.
00:54:17No, Lizzie's right. This isn't fair.
00:54:20Nancy Palmer is so twisted with grief.
00:54:22All she wants to do is hurt Lizzie any way she can.
00:54:24I hear what you're saying,
00:54:26but I cannot afford to have a cloud hanging over this ceremony.
00:54:29It's simply not fair to the other students and their families.
00:54:33So are you asking or telling us not to attend?
00:54:36Right now, I'm asking.
00:54:41I'm sorry.
00:54:46She deserves to be there.
00:54:48Come on.
00:54:53I have been looking forward to graduation all year.
00:54:57I know.
00:54:58You and Daddy and I will talk about this tonight.
00:55:01Is any of this ever going to end?
00:55:02Not right away.
00:55:04It's going to take some time for everyone.
00:55:09If I had been the one who died and Janie had been driving,
00:55:14would you hate her too?
00:55:15I don't know.
00:55:18I need a drink.
00:55:19What?
00:55:19What do you mean?
00:55:20I'm thirsty, Mom.
00:55:21What did you think I meant?
00:55:22Let's go to a bar and do some shots of tequila?
00:55:25Stop it, Lizzie.
00:55:25No, you stop it!
00:55:27All of you looking at me like I'm some sort of criminal.
00:55:30That is not true.
00:55:31I simply asked you an innocent question.
00:55:34It didn't sound innocent to me.
00:55:38I'm sorry, Ben.
00:55:40Okay?
00:55:42Okay.
00:55:52Are you coming?
00:55:54Yes.
00:55:58Let me catch up.
00:56:03I gotta stop for some water.
00:56:05Okay.
00:56:09Janie's mom really hates me.
00:56:11She doesn't want me at graduation.
00:56:13She thinks I did it on purpose.
00:56:14What happened was an accident.
00:56:16Everybody knows that.
00:56:17Janie's mother's just out for some revenge.
00:56:19What should I do?
00:56:20I want to go, but if she doesn't want me there...
00:56:23Lizzie, you belong at graduation.
00:56:25Janie would want you to be there.
00:56:27And if you don't go, then neither do I.
00:56:30Really?
00:56:31Yeah.
00:56:32Yeah, we're friends forever, right?
00:56:35Come on, let's go.
00:56:38Hey, wait for me!
00:56:43You're in a lot of trouble.
00:56:45That's holding.
00:56:46That's holding.
00:56:47Whoa!
00:56:48Whoa!
00:56:50That's a foul.
00:56:51That's a foul.
00:56:52He's on.
00:56:53No!
00:56:54Hands!
00:56:55Hands!
00:56:55He's on it!
00:56:56He's going!
00:56:57He's going!
00:56:58Get slow in your old age, Dad!
00:57:01What?
00:57:01All right, all right.
00:57:02Get ready for this.
00:57:03Whoa!
00:57:04Whoa!
00:57:06Meg!
00:57:07Time to start your homework.
00:57:09There's a whistle.
00:57:11Come on, Meg.
00:57:13Oh, can I see you later?
00:57:14No, no.
00:57:14I've got to talk to Lizzie and Mom.
00:57:18Here, I've got it.
00:57:19Oh, thanks, honey.
00:57:27So, I guess we need to talk about graduation, right?
00:57:31I guess so.
00:57:38Kate says that if I'm not allowed to go to graduation, she won't go either.
00:57:43What?
00:57:44She'll boycott graduation if I can't go.
00:57:48Lizzie, Kate has nothing to do with this.
00:57:49Yes, she does.
00:57:51She's my friend.
00:57:53She said she's going to talk to other kids, too.
00:57:56This is not a game.
00:57:58Lizzie, your mom is right.
00:58:00Let's not make matters worse here.
00:58:02So, what are you saying?
00:58:03That I should miss graduation?
00:58:05Maybe.
00:58:06Under the circumstances, honey, it's probably the best thing.
00:58:09Maybe you think I should go to jail, too.
00:58:11Lizzie, come on.
00:58:12We're trying to be practical here.
00:58:14We don't want another confrontation with Nancy at the ceremony and ruin everybody's day.
00:58:20Fine, then I won't go.
00:58:21Who cares about a stupid graduation anyhow?
00:58:36I found your math book in my room.
00:58:38What were you doing in there?
00:58:39Mom told me I'd go get something.
00:58:43What's this?
00:58:47Are you still drinking, Lizzie?
00:58:48Did you tell mom?
00:58:51Did you?
00:58:52No.
00:58:53Well, are you?
00:58:55It's none of your business.
00:58:58But it's really bad for you.
00:58:59So is killing my best friend and having my entire life ruined.
00:59:02But you wouldn't know anything about that.
00:59:04Because you don't know anything.
00:59:14It's not getting any better.
00:59:16Well, it will.
00:59:17Really.
00:59:18I hope so.
00:59:24Oh!
00:59:32He makes me feel like some kind of serial killer.
00:59:35Once school is out, you won't have to deal with him anymore.
00:59:38I won't have to deal with any of this.
00:59:40Can I have a sip?
00:59:48Lizzie, you put vodka in this?
00:59:50Shh.
00:59:51I thought you said you weren't drinking anymore.
00:59:54I just need it to calm me down sometimes, that's all.
00:59:58Come on, you're the only friend I have left.
01:00:00Don't make such a big deal out of it.
01:00:03I gotta go, Lizzie.
01:00:28I gotta do it again.
01:00:35All right, get under it!
01:00:40Uh-oh.
01:00:42Uh-oh.
01:00:49I can't complain.
01:00:51Don't get so hard on yourself.
01:00:53I'm gonna hurt the team.
01:00:53Well, maybe you should just sit out the next day.
01:00:57Maybe it's just too much for you right now.
01:01:00I won't be able to play.
01:01:02For everything that you've gone through, maybe you need a break.
01:01:04Is that what everybody's saying?
01:01:06Give me that.
01:01:08Lizzie, you were drinking too much.
01:01:10You gotta stop.
01:01:11You don't know what you're talking about.
01:01:13I'm worried about you.
01:01:14Worry about yourself.
01:01:15I already have a mother.
01:01:43I think I'll stay out there.
01:01:46It's not really the best subject anyway, but you never know.
01:01:51You never know, right?
01:01:52I feel this way, so see you guys.
01:01:57Hey.
01:01:58Hi.
01:01:59This is going to be because of Lizzie's classes, so I don't know if we get it.
01:02:03I came to see you.
01:02:07Me?
01:02:09There's something going on with Lizzie.
01:02:12What do you mean?
01:02:14I was hoping you'd know what I mean.
01:02:17Is Lizzie drinking?
01:02:20Is she, Kate?
01:02:22Lizzie would kill me if she knew that I had talked to you.
01:02:25She is my best friend.
01:02:26I know.
01:02:26I'm really worried about her.
01:02:30So am I.
01:02:33Please.
01:02:34Please tell me what's going on.
01:02:39I think she's a lot more depressed than she lets on.
01:02:42And she used to drink to have fun, but now it's just a crutch.
01:02:47So she is drinking.
01:02:49Yeah.
01:02:50Too often.
01:02:53Thank you, Kate.
01:02:56You're a good friend.
01:02:58I gotta go.
01:02:58Um, please, just don't tell Lizzie that we talked.
01:03:03No, I promise.
01:03:05I won't.
01:03:25Lizzie.
01:03:39Look, I know things have been really tough for you.
01:03:43Mom, is this going to be another one of those speeches about how you're always there for me?
01:03:47I know.
01:03:49That's not quite what I was going to say.
01:03:51So what is it?
01:03:53Lizzie, I'm worried about you.
01:03:55Mom, I'm fine.
01:03:56That's what you always say.
01:03:57Do you want me to say I'm miserable?
01:03:59I want you to be honest.
01:04:01With me and with yourself.
01:04:03You have to feel overwhelmed sometimes.
01:04:05I do.
01:04:07I'm sure there are times you just want to block all this out.
01:04:10So what else is new?
01:04:15Lizzie.
01:04:16Lizzie, are you drinking?
01:04:18Do I look like I'm drinking?
01:04:21Do I act like I'm drinking?
01:04:22Do I seem drunk to you?
01:04:23I don't mean this second.
01:04:25Then what do you mean?
01:04:26You know what I mean.
01:04:28Kate talked to you.
01:04:30This has nothing to do with Kate.
01:04:32Yeah, sure it does.
01:04:33Ever since Kate stopped drinking, she thinks everybody's an alcoholic.
01:04:36I went through the liquor cabinet.
01:04:41If I was going to drink, you think I would drink your stuff?
01:04:44No, I would get someone else to buy it for me so you wouldn't know.
01:04:51Is that what you do?
01:04:56If I had a drinking problem, don't you think you would know?
01:05:01I'm your daughter.
01:05:02I live with you.
01:05:08Lizzie.
01:05:11I have always trusted you.
01:05:14And believed you when you said you were telling me the truth.
01:05:19I don't want to stop trusting you now.
01:05:25There's nothing to worry about.
01:05:27Okay?
01:05:28Okay.
01:05:29There's nothing to worry about time.
01:05:37Come on.
01:05:45You just don't don't want to cry.
01:05:48Yes, I'millo.
01:05:51Hey Motess.
01:05:53Hey, how are you?
01:05:53Tell me.
01:06:21Oh, she's drinking again.
01:06:23I'm sure of it.
01:06:23Well, I just spoke to her last night.
01:06:25She seemed fine.
01:06:27What happened to set all this off?
01:06:29I think everything's happened.
01:06:30That's the problem.
01:06:33Maybe it's all this graduation stuff.
01:06:36I hope we did the right thing by keeping her out of it.
01:06:39I don't know anymore.
01:06:41Oh, how did everything get so screwed up so fast?
01:06:44Seems like everything changed when we started drifting apart.
01:06:46Maybe I wasn't paying attention.
01:06:48Maybe she needed me a lot more than I knew.
01:06:50Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:06:51Wait a minute.
01:06:53Wait a minute.
01:06:55We can't start blaming ourselves for this.
01:06:58Lizzie's old enough.
01:07:00She needs to accept responsibility for what she did and how she's going to deal with it.
01:07:05Obviously, she's dealing with it by drinking.
01:07:07Well, we need to do something.
01:07:09I mean, at the very least, she should be grounded.
01:07:12No more of these parties, no more cars.
01:07:15Oh, my God.
01:07:15What if she drinks and drives again?
01:07:18Well, then, if she gets caught, she goes to jail.
01:07:21Maybe that's what she wants.
01:07:23Maybe she wants to be punished.
01:07:27We have to help her.
01:07:31I think I used to complain about changing diapers.
01:07:39I'm glad we have each other again.
01:07:45So am I.
01:07:49So am I.
01:07:56Hey, I've waited for you after a lab.
01:07:59What happened?
01:07:59I had things to do.
01:08:01What is going on?
01:08:02You expect me to thank you for telling my mother I'm a drunk?
01:08:05Maybe you want to tell the coach to her.
01:08:07Better you want it.
01:08:07You announced it at graduation.
01:08:09Your mom came to me.
01:08:11You didn't have to tell her.
01:08:13Lizzie, you have got to stop drinking.
01:08:15What are you going to do?
01:08:16You're going to kill yourself?
01:08:16I told you, it's none of your business.
01:08:19Yes, it is.
01:08:20I'm your friend, and I'm worried about you.
01:08:22Yeah, like you're worried about Janie.
01:08:26What is that supposed to mean?
01:08:28If you hadn't given me my keys back that night,
01:08:30Janie would still be alive and nothing would have happened.
01:08:32So now it's all my fault.
01:08:34You knew how trashed we were.
01:08:39How could you say that to me?
01:08:41Lizzie, it's true.
01:08:58Excuse me.
01:08:59Well, I have to do my homework.
01:09:01You're lucky.
01:09:02School's over for you.
01:09:03Yeah, I'm really lucky.
01:09:06I didn't tell Mom.
01:09:07About what?
01:09:09About the bottle.
01:09:11Gee, thanks.
01:09:14Why are you still drinking, Lizzie?
01:09:16Who says I'm drinking?
01:09:17Didn't I tell you to stay out of my room?
01:09:19I don't want you to drink anymore.
01:09:21Please, why won't you just stop?
01:09:23Just stay out of my room.
01:09:34Although today is a day of great celebration,
01:09:37it should also be a day of reflection.
01:09:40And that's why, before we begin,
01:09:44I'd like all of you to stay.
01:09:45I'll be inside.
01:09:46Bye, Mom.
01:09:46Join me.
01:09:47In a moment of silence,
01:09:49honor the memory of Janie Palmer,
01:09:52an honor student and friend of many of you,
01:09:55who died last month
01:09:57in a tragic automobile accident
01:09:59caused by illegal
01:10:01and criminally irresponsible
01:10:03drinking and driving.
01:10:09Hi.
01:10:10What do you want?
01:10:11I didn't go to graduation
01:10:12because your mother didn't want me there.
01:10:14Nobody wanted you there.
01:10:15I know you're going away for the summer soon,
01:10:18and I wanted to say goodbye.
01:10:19Oh, is that why you came out here?
01:10:21Ben?
01:10:22Who is it?
01:10:26Lizzie.
01:10:28I know what I did was horrible.
01:10:32And nothing can make it right.
01:10:36But I was Janie's friend.
01:10:38I loved her.
01:10:40Lizzie,
01:10:41today of all days,
01:10:42I can't deal with this, okay?
01:10:45I wish it had been me
01:10:47and not Janie.
01:10:49Lizzie,
01:10:51please don't come here again.
01:11:20I wish it had been me.
01:11:32No, you're trashed.
01:11:35I'm not trashed.
01:11:38I was not drunk.
01:11:40I was not drunk.
01:11:42The police are saying you were drunk?
01:11:43My God, Lizzie,
01:11:44what the hell were you thinking?
01:11:45What the hell were you thinking?
01:11:48You did something incredibly stupid,
01:11:50and my sister's dead.
01:11:52What Lizzie Williams did
01:11:53was not simply a terrible mistake.
01:11:56It was murder.
01:11:57It was murder.
01:12:01I don't want you to drink anymore.
01:12:03Please, why were you just gone?
01:12:06Do I look like I'm drinking?
01:12:08Do I act like I'm drinking?
01:12:09Do I seem drunk to you?
01:12:11I went through the liquor cabinet.
01:12:14Did you have a life missing?
01:12:17Janie, did it.
01:12:18Did it.
01:12:19Let it!
01:12:20Stop!
01:12:37Where were you?
01:12:40Nowhere.
01:12:41Don't tell me nowhere, Lizzie.
01:12:43Where have you been?
01:12:45Jogging at South Beach.
01:12:47Have you been drinking?
01:12:49No.
01:12:50I'm just having a really bad day,
01:12:52it's all.
01:12:53Just leave me alone.
01:12:57Lizzie, I...
01:13:10Hi, this is Ray.
01:13:11Please leave a message at the beep.
01:13:15Ray, call me as soon as you get in.
01:13:17I, uh...
01:13:19It's about Lizzie.
01:13:28Lizzie.
01:13:29Lizzie, hey.
01:13:30Hey, we missed you at graduation.
01:13:32How'd it go?
01:13:33It's pretty boring, actually.
01:13:34Can we just talk?
01:13:36Are you so mad at me?
01:13:38Can we just forget it?
01:13:39No.
01:13:39I mean, I'm the one that should be mad
01:13:41at what you said about that night
01:13:42and Janie, that really hurts.
01:13:44Fine.
01:13:45It wasn't your fault.
01:13:46I deserve to die, not Janie.
01:13:51Meg?
01:13:52Meg, I didn't see Lizzie's car outside.
01:13:54She took it.
01:13:55What?
01:13:56She's not supposed to drive.
01:13:58She said she was going to the library
01:13:59and the bus doesn't go by there
01:14:00after five o'clock.
01:14:01I could have picked her up.
01:14:02This is so...
01:14:03I'm going to the library.
01:14:05If she gets caught,
01:14:06drive in that car.
01:14:08Hey!
01:14:14Hey, girlfriend.
01:14:16Hi, what's up?
01:14:17Hey, what's up?
01:14:17Hey, you want a drink?
01:14:19Yeah, I love something.
01:14:20I'd be great.
01:14:21All right.
01:14:27I've had a nice...
01:14:30Lizzie.
01:14:32Lizzie.
01:14:34How many different ways do I have to tell you
01:14:36to leave me alone?
01:14:37Just give me your car, Hazy.
01:14:38You shouldn't have driven here in the first place.
01:14:40You can go to jail for that.
01:14:41Why don't you turn me in?
01:14:42You're good at that.
01:14:42Give me your keys.
01:14:43Please, I am not going to let
01:14:44another friend of mine die.
01:14:46I'm not your friend, remember?
01:14:47I don't care.
01:14:48You have to give me your keys.
01:14:50I just want to wait from you.
01:14:52Lizzie, let's go.
01:14:53I'm not going to let you go.
01:14:59Come on!
01:15:02Come on!
01:15:02Hey, come on.
01:15:39Please, lady! Where did you learn how to pray? Take a lesson or something! Are you going to kill me?
01:15:58Lizzie! Where have you been? I have been a wreck driving around calling your friends.
01:16:04You've been drinking! No! Have you? No! Please, I just want to go to bed!
01:16:09You're alive! Lizzie! Lizzie, do you know what you've done? Do you know what you've done?
01:16:20You could have been arrested and gone to jail for five years!
01:16:24Then why don't you call the police and put us all out of our misery?
01:16:27If you ever drink and drive again, I will!
01:16:30God!
01:16:34Go away! Shut up! Leave me alone!
01:16:39What are you going to do? I've been moving on down!
01:16:43Go away!
01:16:44I've been moving on down!
01:16:46Ah!
01:16:48Lizzie!
01:16:49Oh, I hate him!
01:16:59No, no, no, Meg. She just had to have some stitches, but she's going to be fine.
01:17:03Um, listen, we should be home within the hour, so if anybody calls, don't tell them what happened, okay?
01:17:09Um, listen, I gotta go, honey. I love you. Bye-bye.
01:17:12They said I could go.
01:17:14You realize what you've done here tonight?
01:17:16Dad, can we just go, please?
01:17:17No!
01:17:18What you did tonight could have ruined your life.
01:17:21Destroyed this family and maybe even killed somebody else.
01:17:23I'm sorry, okay?
01:17:24No, it's not okay.
01:17:26Your mother and I have been over backwards here to be supportive, but enough is enough.
01:17:29After all you've been through, how in God's name could you drink and drive, Lizzie? How?
01:17:33I don't know!
01:17:35That's not good enough! It's not!
01:17:37What are you trying to do to yourself?
01:17:39Everybody hates me! I hate me!
01:17:42Lizzie, we don't hate you. We love you.
01:17:48I mean, that's why we're so upset. We're trying to figure out what we can do to help.
01:17:55But you've gotta tell us. Please.
01:18:01I just want Tane to come back. And all this pain to go.
01:18:16I don't think I can do this.
01:18:18Everybody here has the same problem that you do.
01:18:22I'll shut off.
01:18:22No, I'll bet you sitting around me saying.
01:18:29Come on.
01:18:29Let's go!
01:18:30Let's go!
01:18:35Let's go!
01:18:35God!
01:18:35Let's go!
01:18:35God, let's go!
01:18:35God, definitely doesn't come up.
01:18:37I don't think I'm fine with it.
01:18:39Once I find it in...
01:18:41...I'm not like myself a burden.
01:18:53Anybody else like to share?
01:18:55Yeah, hi everybody.
01:18:56My name is Tony and I'm an alcoholic.
01:18:57Hi, Tony.
01:18:59I'm having a really tough time today.
01:19:06Hello, my name is Lizzie and I'm an alcoholic.
01:19:30What's going on?
01:19:31Hey, well, I thought it was time to move back in.
01:19:34You're kidding.
01:19:35Nope.
01:19:36Plus this way I can keep a closer eye on you.
01:19:39I'm better now, Dad.
01:19:41I really am.
01:19:43Sure?
01:19:44How's that therapy going?
01:19:47It's hard.
01:19:48And some days I want to lay down and die.
01:19:51But I don't.
01:19:52And I haven't had anything to drink.
01:19:56Listen, honey, I'm sorry if the problems your mom and I had caused you to...
01:20:00No, it's not your fault.
01:20:01I was drinking or mom's.
01:20:02It's my problem and I have to fix it.
01:20:08I'm glad to be home.
01:20:11I'm glad to be home.
01:20:29I'm glad to be home.
01:20:56Come on, girls.
01:20:57Work harder.
01:20:58We've got to get ready for the Nationals.
01:21:00Move it.
01:21:00Let's go.
01:21:03Come on.
01:21:04Come on.
01:21:07All right.
01:21:07Good work.
01:21:09Let's go.
01:21:14Let's go.
01:21:15Hi.
01:21:17Hi.
01:21:22Kate, I just wanted to say I'm sorry.
01:21:24You've been such a good friend.
01:21:26That's new.
01:21:27What I said about you and Janie was so stupid.
01:21:29I wasn't thinking and I know I hurt you.
01:21:35I was wrong.
01:21:39Forget it.
01:21:41Yeah?
01:21:42Yeah.
01:21:45So how are you doing?
01:21:48Better.
01:21:49No more vodka in the water bottle.
01:21:51Well, that's good.
01:21:55You know, I think about that night and Janie all the time.
01:22:02You think that she'll ever forgive us?
01:22:04What happened wasn't your fault.
01:22:07I made the decision to drive that night.
01:22:09You're not responsible.
01:22:12Yes, I was.
01:22:14We all were.
01:22:18We all were.
01:22:20We all were.
01:22:26Friends forever.
01:22:31Hi.
01:22:33What are you doing here?
01:22:35I come here all the time.
01:22:37Sometimes I feel like I just need to talk to her.
01:22:40So do I.
01:22:43How you doing?
01:22:44I stopped drinking.
01:22:47It's hard, but...
01:22:48I...
01:22:49I know this is going to sound crazy, but, um, I've talked to Janie about you.
01:22:55And I don't hate you anymore.
01:22:57Why not?
01:22:59It's just not right.
01:23:03Thanks.
01:23:05That's really important to me.
01:23:10I really missed you.
01:23:12I missed you too.
01:23:16I missed you.
01:23:18I missed you.
01:23:27Mag?
01:23:29Hey.
01:23:30You all dressed up?
01:23:32I'm starting my community service today.
01:23:35That centennial of all places.
01:23:37Nervous?
01:23:38Yeah.
01:23:39A little bit.
01:23:42Are you going to drink anymore?
01:23:45Well, I'm only supposed to think about it one day at a time.
01:23:48But I hope not.
01:23:51I like you better now.
01:23:52I like me better too.
01:24:08Oh, I know.
01:24:09Do you really think anyone's going to want to hear me talk about drinking and driving?
01:24:12I would.
01:24:13Yeah, but you're my mom.
01:24:15So what's wrong with that?
01:24:17I didn't mean it that way.
01:24:19I know.
01:24:22I'm so sorry about everything that happened.
01:24:25I'm sorry too.
01:24:27But the one thing I never regret is you're my daughter.
01:24:34I'm sorry.
01:24:40I missed you.
01:24:41Oh, no.
01:24:42Hi.
01:24:42Hey.
01:24:45Hi.
01:24:46You ready?
01:24:48Come on.
01:24:51And just a few months ago, I was one of you.
01:24:55I went to school here.
01:24:57I sat on the same hard chairs, whispered jokes to my friends.
01:25:02Like most of us, I was sure I knew everything.
01:25:06But then one night, in one horrible minute, my life changed.
01:25:24I'm sorry.
01:25:26Excuse me.
01:25:28Would you please change?
01:25:33Lizzie.
01:25:34Lizzie, please.
01:25:36I didn't come here to upset you.
01:25:38Then why are you here?
01:25:41I can't forgive you yet.
01:25:43I don't know if I ever will.
01:25:46But I now realize it could have been you in that seat just as easily as Janie.
01:25:51And it could have been Janie who was driving.
01:25:54She was drinking too.
01:25:56She should have known better.
01:25:59Make something of yourself.
01:26:02For you and for Janie.
01:26:04She loved you.
01:26:07That's what she would have wanted.
01:26:30I'm sorry.
01:26:32Then, one night my life changed.
01:26:38I drank at a party and left.
01:26:41Sure that I could drive.
01:26:45Ten minutes later, I killed my best friend.
01:26:51Now you're all probably thinking, but that can't happen to me.
01:26:55I know.
01:26:58Because whenever I heard a story like mine, I said the same thing.
01:27:04But then it did happen.
01:27:07And my best friend died.
01:27:10Because I was stupid.
01:27:15What happened to me can happen to you.
01:27:18Probably will happen to you.
01:27:21If you make the decision to drink and drive.
01:27:26Believe me, I know.
01:27:29And I will have to live with that memory.
01:27:32Every day for the rest of my life.
01:27:34I will have to live with that memory.
01:27:36I will have to live with that memory.
01:27:36I will have to live with that memory.
01:27:37I will have to live with that memory.
01:27:37I will have to live with that memory.
01:27:38I will have to live with that memory.
