Behind the Scenes

Allusions and References

Memorable Moments

  • Katie is able to be heard in the imaging chamber during the trial. When Nancy asks her questions, Katie replies, then parroted by Sam. However, as the camera zooms in on Katie in one uninterrupted shot, the exchange focuses solely on Katie as she recounts what happened to her.
  • As Sam sits despondent about Kevin being found not guilty, Kevin appears and begins assaulting her. Sam then realises what he's there to do and gives Kevin the comeuppance he deserves and kicks his ass.

Quotes

  • Officer Shumway: Katie, I'm sorry I even pressed you to go after him.
Sam: You did the right thing. Besides, I'm still here, so... it must not be over yet.
  • Kevin: If you think that was rape, wait till you feel what I'm gonna do to you now.
Al: Sam, do something!
(Sam kicks Kevin in the crotch, knocking him back)
Al: That'll work.
