00:00Well, according to the toxicology report of the victim, the dizziness and other effects

00:22were directly attributable to a drug called Rohypnol and not alcohol.

00:26Can you tell me if this is the same person you saw repeatedly beating up Eternity Simmons

00:33using a gavel replica that he killed?

00:35Sir, you just stood there and didn't hit me.

00:40I'm smaller than you.

00:41And you didn't do anything?

00:48I was scared.

00:50Scared of what?

00:52Do I have a knife, a gun, a bomb, or anything else that I can use to threaten you?

00:59No, ma'am.

01:01But then you said in your direct testimony earlier,

01:05you were scared when you saw me standing there with a gavel replica

01:09while my mother was being beaten until she died.

01:12But you just said,

01:13I don't have any weapon to threaten you.

01:17Am I right?

01:22Who? Who?

01:25Objection, Your Honour.

01:27Counsel is badgering the witness.

01:30Your Honour, the witness is on cross.

01:32And my questions are simple and merely answerable by yes or no.

01:37Overruled.

01:39Ms. Witness, answer the questions.

01:48Ms. Magas,

01:49you're saying that you're loyal

01:51and you owe a lot to Atty. Meredith Simmons.

01:55And yet, you chose to run away

01:59and not help her against me

02:02who was smaller than you

02:04and who didn't have a weapon that night.

02:10Ms. Magas,

02:11if you're really loyal

02:14and you're determined to give justice to Atty. Meredith Simmons,

02:19why didn't you help her the night of the incident?

02:24Why, Ms. Magas?

02:45I will never lose

02:48my love for you.

03:03So tell us, Ms. Magas,

03:05why didn't you help Atty. Meredith Simmons?

03:09And why can't you speak now?

03:12Is it because you're afraid to admit

03:15that your story has no truth?

03:34No further questions, Your Honour.

03:42Yes, Your Honour.

04:05What's going on, Ms. Evelyn?

04:07What happened to your cross-examination?

04:09Why can't you answer properly?

04:11Do you know about the case?

04:12Ma'am, I was just nervous.

04:14I don't know why I got caught.

04:16Really? You were just nervous?

04:18Why did you bring the actress to the horror movie earlier?

04:22But here, Evelyn,

04:24this is not a movie or a series.

04:27There's no cut here.

04:29That's why you didn't sit down again.

04:31I told the truth.

04:33I'm not lying.

04:37If you're not lying

04:39and if you're telling the truth,

04:42why can't you answer straight to the point?

04:46You know what, Torniera?

04:47Your slap won't heal the disaster that happened in court earlier.

04:53Evelyn, is it true what you told us?

04:56Or did someone hijack your testimony?

04:58Here.

05:08Now, what was that all about?

05:12I thought you prepared your witness.

05:16Tornie, believe me.

05:17I'm as flabbergasted as you are.

05:19Our conversation was clear,

05:22especially my instruction for her account in the reenactment.

05:27I prepared her for all the possible questions

05:29that Atty. Matias might ask her.

05:31And I even rehearsed with her yesterday.

05:34You know that?

05:35Wow.

05:37Then you better dig deeper.

05:39That performance should tell you something.

05:42You're most likely indicting the wrong person.

05:45The case isn't over yet, Atty.

05:47And I ought to know when I should stop prosecuting an accused.

05:52And what does your instinct and experience tell you now?

06:08You're making me blush, partner.

06:11It's clear as day.

06:12She's lying to Evelyn.

06:14It's true.

06:15She's too inconsistent.

06:16She can't even stick to her own story.

06:18It's like something is happening that we don't know about.

06:22I thought of that too, Atty.

06:25She's not just nervous.

06:28It's impossible for her to be confused for no reason.

06:32It's like someone is controlling her.

06:38I hope this ends soon.

06:40Son,

06:42did you forget something?

06:44No, Ma'am.

06:49Why are you still here?

06:51Didn't I tell you to open the gate?

06:53Sorry, Ma'am.

06:56Ma'am.

07:00Just don't forget

07:03what I told you.

07:05Okay, Ma'am.

07:07Don't forget what we agreed on.

07:11Do you understand?

07:14Yes, Ma'am.

07:16Come on, open the gate.

07:18Yes, Ma'am.

07:22Let's go.

07:27Son,

07:29there's nothing to worry about.

07:32This is just temporary.
