our parents' place,
178
00:09:24,825 --> 00:09:27,523
but our name's on the lease.
That's illegal too?
179
00:09:31,048 --> 00:09:33,790
Now I want my lawyer.
180
00:09:33,834 --> 00:09:36,532
This guy's file reads
like the ABCs of crime.
181
00:09:36,576 --> 00:09:39,927
Assault, battery, citations.
- Add D for drug possession.
182
00:09:39,970 --> 00:09:41,232
And initially he waived Miranda.
183
00:09:41,276 --> 00:09:42,538
He's that dense?
184
00:09:42,582 --> 00:09:43,670
Well, he said
the only Miranda he needs
185
00:09:43,713 --> 00:09:45,236
is the one
that'll get on her knees.
186
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,543
Yeah, so to answer your
question, Carisi, that's a yes.
187
00:09:47,587 --> 00:09:49,458
- [chuckles]
- Hey, I FaceTimed Kayla.
188
00:09:49,501 --> 00:09:51,112
She ID'd Dustin from the bar,
189
00:09:51,155 --> 00:09:52,374
but no memory of him
at the park.
190
00:09:52,417 --> 00:09:54,071
But she did
a rape kit though, right?
191
00:09:54,115 --> 00:09:56,030
Oh, he's in the system.
Wait for a match.
192
00:09:56,073 --> 00:09:58,598
Well, his alibi sister
is here.
193
00:09:58,641 --> 00:10:00,295
She wants to know
what's going on.
194
00:10:03,690 --> 00:10:06,301
I can't imagine Dustin
doing anything like this.
195
00:10:06,344 --> 00:10:08,259
He's always protected me.
- Dustin's your brother.
196
00:10:08,303 --> 00:10:09,826
We're not asking you
to betray him.
197
00:10:09,870 --> 00:10:13,177
We're just asking you
to be honest, okay?
198
00:10:13,221 --> 00:10:15,266
Why don't you have a seat?
199
00:10:15,310 --> 00:10:18,400
So the two of them
were in the bar.
200
00:10:18,443 --> 00:10:20,881
Yeah, but he talks
to lots of girls.
201
00:10:20,924 --> 00:10:23,405
But you saw him with Kayla.
202
00:10:23,448 --> 00:10:25,450
She was having fun.
203
00:10:25,494 --> 00:10:29,150
Smiling, flirty,
they may have even kissed.
204
00:10:29,193 --> 00:10:31,413
May have?

Just once
outside the bathroom.

Why'd they stop?
207
00:10:35,069 --> 00:10:36,723
I don't know.
208
00:10:36,766 --> 00:10:40,683
She kind of pushed him away
like she was teasing him.
209
00:10:40,727 --> 00:10:42,946
That's when Dustin told me
he was leaving
210
00:10:42,990 --> 00:10:44,034
and that I had to close up.
211
00:10:44,078 --> 00:10:46,820
And what time
did you get home?
212
00:10:46,863 --> 00:10:49,213

213

You know,
I don't know their real names.

Is it possible that
maybe you told one of them

00:17:09,724 --> 00:17:11,943
that there was a drunk girl
alone in the park?

No, of course not.
