to defend yourself.

David:
So unless...

Essentially, I mean,

unless we stop the doco,

we're gonna be f***ed.

Really. It seems that's

what it comes down to.

Kevin:
I'm not gonna use those

words directly,

because that wouldn't

be prudent.

But... let me rephrase.

Unless you stopped...

Unless we can figure out a way

to ameliorate that situation,

we all are.

David:
Facing lawsuits and

a company with deep pockets,

I wondered if we should

just walk away.

But Dylan was part of this now

and didn't want to give in to

a bunch of bullies.

Kevin:

Dylan wants to pursue this

on his own?

David:
Uh, I gather from

what he's saying, yeah.

Kevin:
Okay.

Um, if Dylan wants to do that,

Dylan does...

Dylan will do that.

If you don't want to do that,

then just walk away from it.

David:
Yeah.

Kevin:
And I will... Dylan

will be dealt with accordingly.

How was school?

Marko:
The main

thing, David, you know, that I

wanted to tell you is that

I think that you're brilliant.

And that you have

a great career.

So I was really,

really happy to find out

that you wanted just to

distance yourself from it.

And I don't understand why

Dylan would not want to.

What I'm worried about too,

I know Kevin says,

"well, if he wants to

go ahead with it,

let him go ahead with it."

But he'll become a real target,

and believe me,

it will be really ugly for him.

And I would...

I would hate to see that too,

because I know he has a family

and, you know, he's probably,

uh, a good bloke down deep.

David:
I've never heard threats

like this in my life,

and all of this

over some tickling!

Kevin and Marko fly

back to America.

And a few days later,

Dylan and I follow.

Something about bullies

with way too much money

has convinced me

I shouldn't drop it.

Plus, we think there's a

competitive tickling shoot

happening this week.

We've reached out to nearly

a hundred boys in the videos,

but they all seem too

nervous to talk.

Finally tj agrees to meet us.

We met Kevin Clarke

downtown la somewhere.

I can't remember exactly where

it was at, but it was a studio.

He seemed pretty

normal at the time.

My first impression of him,

you know, he was just, like,

kind of...

Kind of a little weird.

You know,

I was young at the time,

didn't think nothing of it,

and I was like, "cool."

You know, $2000 or whatever,

"yeah. It's gonna be cool."

It was actually a hard

time for my family.

A family member of mine was

going through cancer, and money

was tight at the household.

So I was a little bit desperate

at the time as well for money,

working on the side,

and doing what I can. So when

i heard this dollar sign,

I was like, "yeah," you know,
