B2S16C96 (Dialogue)

* Claudia: Margaret Carmody, you're under arrest for the murder of Roosevelt Nelson!
* Margaret: Me, a killer? That's preposterous! 
* Claudia: You left traces of your champagne on the lash you used to whip him to death! 
* Margaret: And? Drinking champagne isn't illegal. You have nothing!
* Claudia: We're far from over, Ms. Carmody! You ordered the lash off of LeForbes magazine! We found your copy at the crime scene!
* Margaret: And this is supposed to be hardcore evidence? I'm disappointed in you, Claudia. I really am. 
* Claudia: Is the security footage of you killing Nelson from his penthouse hardcore enough? I'm disappointed in you, Margaret. I really am. 
* Claudia: So what was this? A kinky sex game gone wrong?
* Margaret: Far from it! That horny little bitch finally got what was coming his way!
* Claudia: But I don't understand! You mentioned not even knowing him! Plus, you're friends with his father!
* Margaret: ...
* Margaret: Look, truth be told, I knew Roosevelt Nelson all too well...
* Margaret: His father would go on business trips for weeks on end, obviously. I'm sure he told you about that.
* Claudia: How is this relevant?
* Margaret: Hush, I'm getting there! 
* Margaret: So, when Roosevelt became a teenager, he always threw these crazy high-profile parties in his father's mansion while he was away.
* Margaret: I normally came to them. 
* Margaret: I introduced myself to him, and he told me I was hot. I didn't think much of it...
* Margaret: And then I realized that the kid started stalking me! I was a prostitute at the time, so this was especially worrying! I thought he was going to KILL me!
* Margaret: Instead, he sexually abused me. I remember becoming unconscious so many times, only to find myself named with him on his bed...
* Margaret: With the glass of wine in one hand...the smirk on his face...
* Margaret: crying
* Margaret: I recall points that he would go so far during our old...visits that I nearly DIED! I had to go to the hospital THREE TIMES because of him!
* Claudia: So why didn't you stop? 
* Margaret: I couldn't! He said that if I tried, he'd tell his dad I abused him and I'd lose everything, including my freedom!
* Margaret: I recorded evidence and took him to court, but he had good lawyers...and I lost EVERYTHING!
* Margaret: I was left penniless on the streets!
* Margaret: This is when another businessman found me and took me in after a night. 
* Margaret: We got married and two years later, he died of cancer. I inherited everything. 
* Margaret: Ever since then I've been living like a lonely aristocrat...
* Margaret: I then got a call saying to meet at the penthouse with an old friend of my husband...I was so desperate for human interaction...
* Margaret: But then when I opened the door, I realized that it was ROOSEVELT! He tricked me in order to get me to come over!
* Margaret: He drugged me and I woke up on his bed...the same smirk...the same glass...
* Margaret: He said he wanted to feel the pain, and I almost threw up...
* Margaret: When he gave me the whip, all my rage suddenly lashed out at him...
* Margaret: By the time I realized what was going on, he was already dead!
* Margaret: I never meant to kill him, I...I was so angry!
* Claudia: Margaret, I'm so sorry about what happened to you, but murder is never the answer. I'm afraid you're under arrest.
* At the courtroom...
* Bernard: Wait a second...I know you...
* Margaret: You do, your honor! You're the judge who went over the case with me and Roosevelt Nelson!
* Bernard: I sure was. So why did you kill Roosevelt? Because you lost the case?
* Margaret: It was a complete accident! I never meant to kill him! I was...I was so angry! After everything he's done to me!
* Bernard: I've looked over the case files and wow...had I known all this back then, Mr. Nelson would've lost everything, not you!
* Bernard: Regardless, you should know that murder is unacceptable and hence, you will be given the full consequences.
* Margaret: I understand.
* Bernard: Well then, Margaret Carmody, for the third-degree murder of businessman Roosevelt Nelson, this court sentences you to 10 years in prison with a chance of parole in 5! 
* Margaret: I understand. I have nothing left, anyways.
* Back at the base... 
* Claudia: Honestly, how disgusting of a man was Roosevelt Nelson?!
* Claudia: He raped Margaret, took everything from her...
* Claudia: Frankly, I'm glad he's dead! If it were up to me, Margaret would get a medal!
* Claudia: I'm sorry...it's just that there are some awful people out there...
* Claudia: The fact he killed two people during over-the-top sex "accidents" too...I don't even want to think about what really happened to Chekova...
* Aydan: Well, that's why we're here! To make sure the awful people get punished!
* Aydan: While it disturbs me that Roosevelt escaped his punishment and Margaret is in prison, what's done is done, and now we have to focus back on what we came to Shogend to do...put an end to the king's reign of terror and arrest the reaper!
* Claudia: I'm right behind you, chief! Let's get to work!
