Sara [to Hannah West]:
Hey there.
Hannah West:
Did you come to say bye?
Sara:
No, actually you and I are going to be seeing a lot of each other. If you thought the DA wouldn't prosecute a 12-year-old for murder, you were wrong. He wants justice for Stacy and her family.
Hannah West:
Of course, he's a total linear thinker. Most of you guys are.
Mrs. West:
Shame on you Miss Sidle. Come on, Hannah, you don't need to listen to this.
Hannah West:
Mom...just give us a second. [her mom walks away] You were saying?
Sara:
Here. [she goes and sits on the bench and Hannah stands in front of her] Hannah, with your gifts you could have done anything you could have wanted and you picked murder, you can't take that back.
Hannah West:
You're worried how I'm gonna turn out?
Sara:
Of course I am. I know it seems like a really long time but...in 5 years, the Stacy's of the world would have been behind you.
Hannah West:
Let me guess? You were a smart kid in school, maybe you feel that we're a little bit alike?
Sara:
There aren't many people like you.
Hannah West:
That's what my parents always say too. The last four months all they cared about was the effect of the trial on me not Marlon. It's been that way ever since I was 14 months old and started spelling words with plastic letters. It's so unfair and nobody ever sees it. He doesn't deserve to go to jail. If I get convicted, what's the worst case scenario? I mean, I'll be out in five years with an undergraduate degree. There's no Son of Sam law in Nevada. That was ruled unconstitutional, so I'm free to write a book about all of this. [Sara is staring opened mouthed at her, shaking her head] The story will be worth millions. Freaks are always good box office.
Sara (still shocked):
You're not a freak.
Hannah West:
When was the last time you had to sit down to be eye level with a murder suspect who was standing up?
Sara:
Hannah West you are smart.
Hannah West:
So I've been told.
Sara:
But you are not smart enough to get away with murder.
Hannah West:
I think I am. A lot of people are smart enough to get away with murder. You probably are too, but you have to be really smart to get people to think that something happened that never did.
Sara (deadpanned):
What do you mean... exactly?
Hannah West:
Please don't worry about me, I'm gonna be fine. [Sara is staring at her completely shocked and leans in close to her ear and whispers] I didn't kill Stacy, Marlon did. ]walks away, leaving Sara looking completely shocked]
