Valens: Hi. Detective valens. Uh, thanks for waiting, Belen. Your case is similar to another case I'm working.
Belen: Yeah, I-I already told that other young man everything.
Valens: Sorry to put you through this again. Can you tell me what happened, por favor?
Belen: Hoodlum came out of nowhere, pushed me down. Ran off with my pocketbook.
Valens: You get hurt?
Belen: Scratched my knee. I'm fine.
Valens: Did you get a look at the guy?
Belen: My eyes aren't so good anymore.
Valens: What was he, white, black, latino?
Belen: All my groceries are in the trunk. My ice cream's melting.
Valens: Help me get this guy off the street. Stop him from doing this again.
Belen: I have to go.
Valens: Belen... There are other women he's done this to. Women like you.
Belen: You've spoken to them?
Valens: I... I know... What he did to you.
Belen: I wasn't strong enough to stop him. I tried to scream, but he put his hand over my mouth.
Valens: He... put his hand over your mouth?
Belen: My husband is the only man I've ever been with. He told me to stop looking at him. That was the only thing he said to me.
(Big pause as Scotty realizes his mother was raped too)
Valens: You... You saw him?
Belen: Oh, yes.
Valens: Things we gotta do... Get a nurse to see you...
Belen: Uh, uh, I don't know, no.
Valens: Look, anyone that cares for you... They're gonna understand... It wasn't your fault.
Belen: I shouldn't have been there.
Valens: It wasn't your fault. You hear me, Belen, hmm?
Belen: I have to go, my ice cream's melting.
