The Fall of a Golden Boy — Episode 5 transcript

English

After a dozen repeats, he sent texts, arrogant and used to getting his way. Fine, I'm sorry. I got you your favorite frozen yogurt. Want me to bring it over? I didn't reply. A cup of frozen yogurt was supposed to fix everything? He kept texting. Joan Miller, don't be ridiculous. It was just a prank. You really gonna hold a grudge this long?

Joan, don't make me regret this. I let out a cold laugh. When apologies didn't work, he switched to threats. That was Tristan.

Always self-centered. Always thought the world revolved around him. I blocked him. Finally, everything was quiet.

The next morning, I told Mom I was going to visit my aunt. Actually, I was going to the university registrar's office. I could handle the transfer paperwork myself. Sweetheart, transferring mid-semester your senior year is tricky.

Vicki, you'll need a valid reason. I'm being badly bullied on campus. Do you have proof? If you have solid evidence, we'll open a formal investigation.

I opened my phone gallery. I'd saved every video and photo. This is extremely serious. This counts as physical assault.

Have you shown this to campus police? I shook my head. Where are your guardians? Call the police.

Give Tristan a criminal record. Let the neighbors who'd watched me grow up find out. I couldn't do it. Why haven't you said anything?

They have to face consequences. I just want to transfer. I didn't want to fight about it anymore. I never wanted to see any of them again.
