Adam, though, is ready to talk and reveals to a stunned DC Jo Masters that he trashed Rhys's house because Rhys raped his sister at a party. Millie questions Lucy, who confirms her brother's story. At the school, however, Misti claims Lucy got drunk and threw herself at Rhys. Nate and Millie question all the teenagers involved and discover a nasty world ruled by peer pressure, bullying and underage sex.
