EXCERPT FROM TAPE 13 TRANSCRIPT: "My parents are very upset about Uncle Ron’s grave.  I think that it’s somehow bringing it all back for my dad.  He was really quiet tonight.  I wanted to ask him questions about Ron but every time I did the words wouldn’t come out.  Like how he died for one.  You’d think I would remember something like that."

Scotch - Episode 9

EXCERPT FROM TAPE 8 TRANSCRIPT: "...he showed me the video on an iPad.  I wish I could remember the officer’s name.  The nice one.  I want to say it was Williams. The video was off a woman standing at Pam’s door.  It came from a security camera across the street.  A convenience store.  The camera was inside the store and the window was smudgy but you could still see a woman walk up to Pam’s door and stand there.  She knocked…" END EXCERPT

Scotch - Episode 6

EXCERPT FROM TAPE 5 TRANSCRIPT: I really think I’m going crazy. I mean… I get here and I bump into one of Brian’s friends in the waiting room. I think his name’s Mike. He looked at me really weird. I tried to cover the gash over my eye. He never asked what happened. He just told me that Pam was there. It took me a second for it to sink in who he was talking about. I’d just talked to her last night when she told me about Brian and Janine. “What happened to her?” I asked. He looked surprised at first. Then shook his head. “She was hurt really bad.” END EXCERPT
