Yes.
MMayer
No.
Terrific.

LCLindsey Carson
[after McCoy refuses to talk about a plea deal until she speaks] I needed him to help us with the appeal. I thought he owed us. Dad told me to forget it, but I couldn't. I tracked Mayer to his hotel.
And you brought the gun with you?
LCLindsey Carson
Yes. Just to scare him. He wouldn't speak to me. I followed him everywhere. The theater, the restaurant. I waited to talk to him. When I thought he was going to duck out the back of the restaurant, I went after him. I told him he was a bastard for abandoning a good man. And he laughed. Said he wasn't the problem. The problem was my father was a murderer. And then he went into the restroom, and I didn't believe him. I couldn't. I was just so angry that I went in there and started shooting, and then when I saw that other man, I just kept on firing. I'm sorry. I didn't know...
The whole world says her father's a murderer; one guy tells her he's sick. She heard what she wanted to hear.
We all do.
Yeah, but we don't all pay $40,000 to hear it.
