Shot 51
Louise: (coughing)
Shot 52
Becca: (laughing)
Shot 54
Solicitor: would you mind writing your name and signing this form as consent of this interview?
Shot 55
Solicitor: just so it can be used as evidence and you can get out of here
Shot 61
Becca: (hesitant) oh yeah..
Shot 63
Solicitor: Thank you
Shot 72
Becca: I always comforted her when she was being bullied
Shot 73
Solicitor: I'm afraid everything you have told us is not enough evidence for or against you so please could you take me through what happened on the day of Louise's death
Shot 74
Becca: I went to Louise's house in the morning, as usual
Shot 75
Becca: what are you writing?
Shot 76
Solicitor: nothing, keep talking
Shot 77
Becca: okay.. well it was just a normal day at her house, we just sat in her room talking
Shot 78
Louise: these letters are really hurting me, I don't know what to do anymore, it's all getting too much
Shot 79
Becca: oh pull yourself together, if you're gonna be like that you may as well kill yourself now
Shot 80
Louise: why would I do that?
Shot 81
Becca: well that's what they told you to do in the letters..
Shot 82
Louise: how do you know that.. I never told you that..
Shot 83
Becca: (stutters) um...
Shot 84
Louise: you wrote them didn't you, (shouting) I knew it!
Becca: No!!
Shot 85
Louise: you're no friend to me
Shot 86
Becca: wait!
Shot 87
Louise: (shouting) get out! I'm telling my mum and the police
Shot 88
Becca: No you're not
Shot 92
Louise's mum: what was all that noise? (piercing scream)
Shot 93
Becca: look, she just fell
Shot 94
Solicitor: Louise's mum said she heard shouting
Shot 95
Becca: yeah, we had a little argument.. but we sorted it and we were going down to get some lunch and she just fell
Shot 96
Becca: I'm telling the truth okay? (shouting) she fell!
Shot 97
Solicitor: Okay, here's what we're going to do.. I'm going to help you.
Shot 98
Solicitor: they don't have enough evidence to charge you yet with murder regardless of the accusations from Louise's mum
Shot 99
Solicitor: therefore, if you plead not guilty you'll be released until further notice..
Shot 100
Solicitor: by which time we'll have a solid case to back you up in court..(fades out)
