Right. Anyone.
There was date rape,
even on campus.
[ Indistinct chatter ]
It was horrible.
Name her.
Yes, your name?
Come on.
Step forward now.
What am I supposed to say?
Just tell us how it was
back then.
It was horrible.
Speak up.
I was raped when
I was fourteen by six guys...
in my high school class.
It, um...
It was at a party.
We'd all been drinking.
I thought that they
were my friends.
Then I, uh,
I had... an abortion.
[ Gasping ]
But it wasn't my fault.
My mother, she made me do it.
She wouldn't let me
have the baby.
Whose fault was it?
ALL:
Her fault.[ All repeating ]
Who led them on?
ALL:
She did.[ All repeating ]
Why did God allow
such a terrible thing to happen?
- Teach us a lesson.
- Let's hear it.
ALL:
Teach us a lesson.[ All repeating ]
What is she?
ALL:
She's a whore.ALL:
[ Chanting ]Whore!
I'm going crazy.
This is a f***ing loony bin.
That's enough.
ALL:
Whore!I didn't...
I didn't mean to do it.
I led them on.
I assume the pain. I'm sorry.
Very good, Janine.
Bathroom?
[ Door creaks open ]
Is that you?
Yes.
God, do I need a cigarette.
Listen...
I have a placement.
I go tomorrow.
Oh, f***! I'll miss you.
I'll miss you, too.
The damn wives
don't want me.
I don't know why.
Maybe I scare them.
Maybe they think I want
Maybe it's the
damn f***ing husbands.
Maybe they know
I think they suck.
Jesus, Moira.
Be careful, for Christ's sake.
I don't know
what's wrong with me.
I gotta do something.
I'm gonna fake like I'm sick.
KATE:
Really bright. Then what?
Then there'll be two guys
in the ambulance.
They must be starved for it.
I'll suck their f***ing c*cks...
till they're blue in the face.
They'll do whatever I say.
You're not serious.
Yes, I am. I'm going to.
I swear to God.
KATE:
You'll never get away with it.
Don't think like that.
It's bad for business.
All right, girls.
Move along.
Hello, my name is Janine...
and I'll be your wait person
this morning.
- Let me get you...
- Janine.
Get your clothes on, Janine.
Come on.
Put your clothes on.
You're gonna get extra prayers
for the rest of us.
Kate!
Kate!
Come on!
- Janine.
- Get you some coffee.
- Hello, my name...
- OK, come on.
Hello, my name is Janine.
Good morning to you, too.
Hello, my name is Janine,
and I'll be your wait person...
Snap out of it, Janine,
snap out of it!
[ Slap ]
Look at me.
Look at me!
What'd you hit me for?
Wasn't it any good?
I can get you another one.
Look at me. I am Moira.
This is the Red Center.
Look at me!
Sorry. I'm sorry.
She does that again, and I'm
not here, slap her. Talk to her.
