Wednesday, August 23, 2006 Henry convinces Maddie that they need to tell Eve that Louis raped her. He leaves her alone in the (locked) car and goes to tell Eve about their conversation. She protests, but finally believes him. Henry goes through Louis' clothes and finds a black sweatshirt like the slasher wore.
Today’s episode was directed by Michael Eilbaum and written by Bettina Bradbury.
Transcripts from TVMegasite Henry: Look, you've already done the hard part -- admitting that Louis raped you. And the only person in line to get hurt right now is our dirt bag brother-in-law when we feed him to the cops. Maddie: No, Henry! Henry: Yes, yes, dropping a dime on this sicko is going to be the best money I've ever spent. Maddie: We cannot go to the police. Henry: Why, because he threatened you? Maddie: Not just me. Henry: Oh, my god. You think he's the -- you think he's the one that's responsible for these murders? Maddie: I can't prove it, but -- Henry: But you're pretty damn sure. No, that makes -- no, that makes a lot of sense, actually. That he would go after you to shut you up about the rape -- and Casey and Gwen, in case you had filled them in on it. Maddie: Yeah, but it doesn't explain Lia and Nate. Henry: Unless, honey, he wanted to make you look so guilty that -- that if you did try to blow the rape whistle, who's gonna believe a crazy little girl with a lot of blood on her hands? Now, this makes a lot of sense. This is adding up. We need to report this bastard before he kills somebody else. Maddie: No, Henry! No, Henry, we can't report it! No! Henry: You don't mean that. You don't mean that. You're not thinking this through. Maddie: I haven't meant anything more in my life, okay? We are going to act like there was no rape, and if you say anything, I swear I will tell everyone that you're lying.
Maddie: Louis told me, after he did it, that if eve ever found out that I had betrayed her, he would -- she would just be destroyed. Henry: You did not betray her, okay? It was a rape, it wasn't a love affair. Maddie: I still feel guilty. Henry: Oh, honey, I know you do. That's how guys like this work, okay? They pile on -- they pile on the fear and the guilt until you get so loaded down that you can't move, you can't think -- you can't even call out for help. Maddie: Eve is going to be so devastated. Henry: I know, she will be. When she finds out what kind of person she is with, she is going to be devastated. We're going to have to help her through that. But right now, we have got to get her away from him, before something happens to her, too. Maddie: Louis wouldn't do anything to eve. Henry: Baby, we don't know what goes on behind closed doors. And if he's running around attacking people -- killing people -- to stop you from ratting him out -- we've got to get her away from him. Maddie: Okay, you're right, but -- Henry: Okay. Maddie: I want eve to hear it before we go to the police, okay? Henry: All right. Okay, that's my girl. We'll go talk to her right now. Maddie: Oh, Henry? Henry: Yeah? Maddie: I know you're gonna think I'm a coward -- Henry: No -- not in this or any other lifetime. Maddie: But seeing eve's face after you tell her what her husband did -- I don't know -- i don't think I can handle it. Henry: All right, well -- I can't leave you here, sweetheart. I called Louis a rapist to his face. He could be looking for you right now. Maddie: No, well, being here in a random parking lot is a lot more safe than being in the hotel. Henry: With Louis on the loose, I don't think any place is safe. Maddie: I will lock the doors and honk the horn if there's trouble. Henry: Do you have your cell phone? Maddie: Yes. Henry: Is it charged? Maddie: Yes, I promise. Henry: You do not leave this car. Do you understand me? You do not leave this car at all. Maddie: I won't. Henry: Don't go out there in crazy town. Maddie: I won't. Tell eve I'm really sorry. Henry: And I'll tell her you love her. Maddie: Okay. Henry: Lord -- lock this door! Maddie: Okay.
Eve: I told you I've never seen the mask before. If you want to search my rooms, you need to get a warrant. Margo: You realize you're just making things harder for Maddie. Eve: Good-night. I have nothing more to say, detective. Henry: We need to talk. Eve: Go away. Henry: This is important. Eve: Look, if you're here to spread more filth about my husband -- Henry: Please eve. Would you please let me in? Eve: No more lies, Henry. Promise me. Henry: They're not lies, honey. They're not lies. Eve: I think you'd better leave. Henry: I just got back from Maddie. And she confirmed everything. In Chicago, it was Louis, honey. Louis raped our sister. Eve: No. It's not possible. You know for weeks now, Maddie does not know what is real and what isn't. I'm not saying she's lying deliberately -- Henry: She did not lie. But you know what? You just lied to Margo about the mask. I haven't seen the picture, but I know exactly what she was talking about. It was that mask that Maddie made, and you sent it from Chicago with a bunch of her stuff. Eve: Look, the detective said that the attacker was wearing a dark sweatshirt and that mask when Gwen Munson -- I was trying to protect Maddie. Henry: Look, we both know that she does not have it in her to attack anybody. But someone attacked her. Eve: I do not have to stand her and listen to this -- Henry: Someone attacked her in the safety of her own bedroom. In the privacy of your own home! In the privacy of your own home. Eve: Stop it! Stop it! Henry: With the mask there, was she looking at that mask when Louis did what he did? Eve: Stop it! Henry: Listen to me, listen to me. All right, remember when we used to say that the worst things to ever happen in our lives were mom and dad? Do you remember that? Someone stole that to make her look guilty. And we both know, sweetie, we both know it was Louis. Now, we have to stop him, before he stops somebody else.
Eve: He's not perfect, Henry. But he is not a murderer. He couldn't be -- he could never been that. Henry: Did you know he was a rapist? Eve: Stop saying that! God -- it's not -- it's not possible. I would know if something like that happened. Henry: Maddie said you had a book club meeting that night. She even knows what book it was. It was "The da Vinci Code." Do you remember that night? Eve: Yeah, no one had finished the book, so we broke early and I came home. Henry: Was Maddie there? Eve: No. Just good smells coming from the kitchen. Louis had cooked dinner. There were fresh cut flowers on the table. Henry: But no Maddie. Eve: No. Louis came from the kitchen with two glasses of wine. And he'd showered and shaved. He'd showered. I asked him if Maddie would be joining us, and he said no, she'd gone out with friends. Henry: Not to a frat party? Eve: No. Just that she'd gone out. I remember thinking how happy I was that we had the place to ourselves. That I got scared later when she didn't come home. Oh, god. I had no idea. Henry: Hey. Eve: It was because -- Henry: No one is blaming you, sweetheart. No one is blaming you. Eve: I was supposed to protect her. Henry: That's water under the bridge now. Eve: Stupid book club. I was at a stupid book club. Henry: It might have been a stupid book club, it would have been when you were having a girls' night out or you're late home from work. Whenever. Whatever. He would have found a way to get to her. We couldn't help her then, okay? We can help her now. Eve: How? Henry: Go to the police and we tell them about the rape, okay? Eve: Is there some other way? Henry: No, there is not another way. We have to do this. We have to do this. Not just for justice for Maddie, but there is much bigger thing going on here. Okay? These killings -- Eve: Stop! Stop, don't say it! Henry: It wasn't Maddie. But it was someone who wanted to hurt her. Eve: No, it's not Louis. Henry: If you defend him, I don't need your statement. Do you understand me? You take one look at her, and you know she is telling the truth about this rape. Eve: Okay, okay. She is telling the truth about that. Henry: Good, good, good. You can give me that at least. Eve: I hate what he did. Henry: Then what -- then what is keeping you from going to the police? Eve: What if my husband's not the killer? What if it is Maddie and Louis drove her to it?
Eve: All that hurt and fear she's been hiding. It's got to go somewhere, doesn't it Henry? All that anger and rage? I mean, god, Maddie. Sweet 16 and never been kissed. Until Louis. What if she's trying to get back at him, or she's trying to get back at us because we didn't protect her? Or she's trying to get back something that she can never get back? What if Louis has damaged her so completely, that she did kill these kids? That she did go after Gwen and Casey and now we've lost her forever? Henry: No, no, eve, no, no. Maddie is not a killer. Eve: But all the evidence points to her, and not Louis. Henry: Not all the evidence. Eve: What do you mean? Henry: Where does Louis keep his stuff?
Eve: Henry, why are you doing this? Henry: Margo said the killer was wearing a dark sweatshirt and Maddie's mask. Eve: Then why aren't you searching her things instead of my husband's? Henry: This is why.
