Major Crimes2012
Phillip Stroh:
Rusty Beck. Please take a seat.
Rusty Beck:
I'm fine here, thanks. What do you wanna know?
Phillip Stroh:
Just the basics. For example, if we end up in court... do you intend to repeat your pretrial testimony against me?
Rusty Beck:
Yeah. Every word.
Phillip Stroh:
Even knowing your statement could help the state execute me?
Rusty Beck:
No one gets executed in California anymore. Actually, in the last 10 years, you've killed more people than the state has. And you tried to kill me.
Phillip Stroh:
Well, it was never personal, Rusty. I mean, who wants to leave witnesses behind? You're living proof of how dangerous that can be, right? [Rusty steps back as Stroh moves his body forward] Relax, okay? I am incapable of reaching you from here. So, moving on, I understand Emma Rios has asked you for an Impact Statement.
Rusty Beck:
Yeah, what about it?
Phillip Stroh:
I was just wondering if in addition to the dustups we've had, you might wanna include some of the positive effects I've had on your life.
Rusty Beck:
Positive effects?
Phillip Stroh:
By becoming a material witness for the state, you were taken off the streets, and out of a life of prostitution, an incredibly unsafe profession. You gained a mother, got a high school degree. You think anybody here would have given a sh*t about you if not for me?
Rusty Beck:
Okay, and what about the interest Wade Weller took in me?
Phillip Stroh:
Who?
Rusty Beck:
Oh, don't act like you don't know his name. Wade Weller. The freak who you had write me threatening letters and who you ordered to kill me, okay? That Wade Weller. You think I should change my Impact Statement because you changed my life? Well, get this from me, okay? If anyone in this room changed someone's else life, I changed yours, okay? I changed yours.
Phillip Stroh:
Oh, and I never forget it, Rusty. But to be completely fair, to be completely honest, we changed each other's lives. As we were fated to do. And we will have the power to change each other again.
Rusty Beck:
Change each other how?
Phillip Stroh:
I don't know. I can't see that far ahead. But our lives have been intertwined. Yours and mine. A pattern has begun to emerge, wouldn't you say? And that pattern is destiny. And when you finally see destiny, Rusty, in all her glory, destiny is like an arrow... pointing toward the end.
Rusty Beck:
What end? The end of what?
Phillip Stroh:
Heaven knows... I'm satisfied with the witness.
Rusty Beck:
Wait, wait, wait. What end? What are you talking about?
Phillip Stroh:
I'm satisfied with the witness. Get me the written parts of my deal to Judge Schaeffer, I'll give you the name of the killer. [Rusty rushes out]
