Chloe: dad we don't know that yet

Cain, Moira,Chloe chas and Jacob sit in the gallery in the court
Their interviewing Michael
Chloe's solicitor john; how could you do that to a 13 year old girl? How could you be so cruel?
Michael: the thing with Chloe is she acts so sweet and innocent but she's not. She knew exactly what she was doing
John: what are you trying to say?
Michael: that she knew what she was getting into but that didn't stop her. The little tart (cain's getting angry so Chloe whispers to him)
Chloe: dad it's okay
john: you kicked and punched her until she was unconscious. How can you justify that?
Michael: Chloe's a liar. She must of got mugged or something and then blamed it on me, I wasn't even their. She needs to stop spreading nasty lies (tears roll down Chloe's face and she wipes them and Jacob puts his hand on Chloe's shoulder)
john: shes a teenager and you manipulated her to get at her father Because you knew they were close
Michael: no it wasn't like that. Whatever Chloe has said are lies. She's a messed up kid with un sable parents (john continues interviewing Michael)

john is sat down and Michael solicitor stands up
Michaels solicitor: would you say Chloe led you on Michael?
Michael: yeah she did. she knew exactly what she was doing. Chloe she's smart and what she wants she gets. I didn't want her but she wanted me and none of this would of happened if it weren't for her (Michael points at Chloe and they carry on with the rest of the interview)

Michael is stood up

Michael: not guilty

Chloe: dad don't. You'll get thrown out (Cain sits down next to Chloe again and then Chloe puts her head on cain's shoulder)
