When the Heat Comes Down
1
[JOSEPHINE BELL] Previously
on Under the Bridge
[CAM BENTLAND] You and Raj
seemed pretty chummy.
The guy won't talk to us.
Doesn't trust cops.
Maybe I could be useful to you.
Who's Gabe?
[REBECCA GODFREY] He was my brother.
He died when we were kids.
If I do this, you know you
owe me something for my book.
- Are you living alone?
- Yeah, kind of.
Hey, why don't you just order
whatever you want, and I'll get it?
Okay, so you must know
who actually killed her.
[JOSEPHINE] I'll tell you
if you promise to take me to New York.
I can't do that.
How do you even live in that house?
It's practically a concentration camp.
You don't know what you're talking
about! Shut up!
You know,
if you're really that miserable,
I do know a way you
can get out of there.
- Step outside. You're under arrest.
- What?
He's been accused of abusing
your daughter, Reena Virk.

[KELLY ELLARD] I did it for you.

- [DOOR SQUEAKS]
- And you just, like, left her there?
- [DUSTY HYPERVENTILATING]
Yep.
And walked home.
[BREATHLESS] Oh, my God,
oh, my God, oh, my God.
Hey!
You're lucky I did it.
It was a favor for all of us.
[DUSTY PACE] What the fuck
are you talking about?
She would've called the cops.
And this is what you wanted, right?
This. This whole thing.
This was the plan.
- Yeah.
- Jo.
- No, I'm out.
- Hey. Mm-mm.
We can't lose it.
Keep your shit together.
[QUIETLY] How the fuck are we
supposed to be around this bitch?
[JOSEPHINE] Omertà.
Remember?
We're family.
[PANTING]
And family looks after their own, right?

I know you wanted these.
You think all this shit will come off?

[DOORS CREAK]
[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]
[ELDER] The dead have no soul.
They have no spirit.
But that does not mean
that this is Reena's end.
When Jehovah restores the world
to its original, perfect state,
all of God's children
will be resurrected
and will know eternal life.
It can seem so unfair that
death should have the power
to take away someone you love,
especially when you are
suffering the loss of a child.
♪
But if they are truly a child of God,
you may take comfort in knowing
you will be reunited
soon on paradise earth.
Now, how can we tell God's
children from the Devil's?
- [CLOCK TICKING]

Proverbs 4:14 tells us
if you were born from God,
-
- you do not carry sin.
Whereas sin is so deep
within the Devil's children,
they are robbed of sleep
until they cause someone's downfall.

[RAJ MASIHAJJAR] I can't
hear another person tell me
that was a beautiful service.
[REBECCA] Yeah, I'm sure Reena would've
wanted something a little different.
A different soundtrack for sure.
What would she have played?
Probably, uh,
I'll Be Missing You.
But the Puff Daddy version.
I told her I thought
Sting sang it better.
What did she say?
- "Who's Sting?"
- [GIGGLES]
This is Rebecca,
the writer I was telling you about.
She's working on the
project about Reena.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
What are you writing about Reena?
[REBECCA] I'm-I'm still
trying to find my way in,
but I think it's important that people
are remembered for who they were
and not what happened to them.
And I would love to try and
understand her the way you did.
I didn't understand Reena.
Sorry.
[RAJ] Sorry.
[QUIET CHATTER]
[DOOR OPENS]
[DOOR SHUTS]
- You okay?
- [SIGHS]
Yeah. [SIGHS] Yeah, sure.
[CAM SNIFFLES]
What's wrong?
I looked into what Raj told you.
It's all true.
View Royal PD arrested Manjit,
put Reena into foster care.
Did they have proof that he did it?
That's fucking insane.
Yeah, well, police are required
to take abuse claims seriously.
It sounds like Reena's friends
put her up to it in the first place.
- Blame them.
- [REBECCA] Yeah.
Always seems to come
back to those girls.
Jo is not thrilled with me at the moment,
so I don't know how much digging I can do.
I mean, I can try.
I need to get her to trust me again.
[SCOFFS] Yeah, well, good luck.
Hey, Perry Smith told Capote things
he never told anyone else.
So, you think you're writin'
In Cold Blood, eh?
[SCOFFS] Yeah, well,
Jo's not Perry Smith.
We know she didn't do it.
And I'm so sick of this
telephone game with these kids.
Need somethin' real from them, ya know?
Use the press.
Scare 'em.
Eh, Dad wants us
to put up a united front.
Think that'd be easy.
I mean, you don't have
to do anything psycho.
Just spook 'em a little bit, ya know?
They'll start messing up.

You keep talking to 'em?
See what you can kick up?
You look pretty today.
[DOOR OPENS]
- [REPORTERS CHATTERING]
- [ROY BENTLAND] [SIGHS] Shit.
- Press.
- [REPORTERS] Chief! Chief, over here!
Chief, is it true this was
a gang-related incident?
I can assure you we do not
have gang presence in Victoria,
especially not in a town like Saanich.
I grew up here,
raised my kids here,
I've been chief for nearly 15 years.
This was an isolated incident.
Reena Virk is a young girl
that should not have died.
[REPORTER] It's been two
weeks since Reena's murder
and no arrests have been made.
Are there any leads?
Could race have been
a motive for her attack?
[ROY] Race?
Reena was a young girl like any other.
As you can see,
this is a multi-ethnic community.
Uh, an accepting one.
Everyone's welcome here. Thank you.
That said, we haven't ruled it out.
There's evidence that suggests
race may have been a factor.
But we're not talking
about evidence right now.
The assailants were
a mixed-race group
- [REPORTER] So, you do have suspects?
- That's not what I said.
I said the assailants were a
mixed-race group. What we know
Look, what we know
[CAM] We know that
a group of Reena's peers,
including a group of girls she considered
to be her friends, were involved.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
Reena Virk was attacked
at a Shoreline school event
earlier in the evening
before she was murdered.
At this moment, we consider anyone,
anyone who participated in the
first assault an accessory,
and we will be bringing
forward criminal charges.

You wanna tell me
what that was about, Cam?
Scarin' 'em.
Need the kids to talk to us, right?
You know what I'm talking about.
The motive thing.
The cigarette burn
on Reena's forehead. We all saw it.
We don't know that that meant anything.
- [SCOFFS]
- What? Come on.
You know, I called one of the officers
who handled Manjit Virk's
accusations over the weekend.
Did you know that Reena refused
to let police examine her?
What do you mean?
After she told the house
manager at Seven Oaks
that her dad tied her to a chair
and beat her with a hammer,
she refused to let officers look at her.
She had no proof of bruises or
injuries because she didn't have any.
- Not a single officer raised any
- That's why his record was expunged, Cam!
questions, Dad. They didn't even
They didn't even think twice about it.
They just arrested him and booked him.
It was like someone made up their mind.
They looked at him and they said,
"Oh, yeah, okay, that makes sense.
- This guy would do that."
- Okay, where are ya goin' here, Cam?
[SCOFFS, LAUGHS]
Those officers have seen
a lotta shit, sweetheart.
You.
When they found you,
you were covered in bruises.
Should've seen your file.
Those pictures, they
they broke my heart.

How do we know that you weren't
the one that ratted about that?
Wait, why would I go outta my way to come
here and help you if I ratted on you?
Everybody knows you started the fight.
And they're gonna say that the injuries
she sustained contributed to her death,
and they're gonna try
and pin everything on you.
So, why do you give a shit?
Isn't it good for your book
if we all go to jail?
I don't think putting a bunch of
teenagers in jail is good for anything.

but I figure I owe you a heads up.

So, what exactly should we do?
Look, if the heat comes down,
we'll go to Mexico.

I have to go to my dad's birthday.
I can drive you guys.

like evidence, anything with
DNA on it?
Clothes you wore, anything
that Reena could've touched?
