This is the first time since I've moved to this crummy town that I have anyone by the short hairs. I'm getting something out of it.
Have you lost your mind?
Maybe. It's irrelevant. Listen to me, I want you to take me to see Bob Paris. I'm gonna tell him I have it, and I'm gonna ask for some favors in return. Why you looking at me like that? I've had a good education in this crappy town. And I'm ready to play ball with the big boys.
Play ball? But they'll kill you.
They can't. I have the flash drive. I'm the only one who knows where it is.
And the two dead girls, they get no justice?
The dead girl gave it to me. She wanted me to do this. She gave it to me before she died. This is gonna bring those poor girls back to life -
Norma, think of what people in this town have done to you -
- you don't think I know what they've done to me? No one knows better than me!
- you're not gonna extort them -
They raped me! They put a dead man's body in my bed. They kidnapped my child and they put him in a box in the ground. What else are they gonna do to me, kill me? I'm not going down without a fight, and no one's gonna stop me. Not you, not Bob Paris, not all of the scumbag criminals in White Pine Bay. You know what? If I was a man, one of these douche bags who lives here, you would say that it's totally doable. You're just saying it's a bad idea because you think I can't handle it because I'm a woman. Because I'm a mother. I can. I have seen how it's done. And I will handle it without you if I have to.
