As Olivia and Amanda walked into the interrogation room, Olivia asked, "Okay Scottlynn, sweetheart, it's time to talk. Who's Kyle? What did he do to you?"
"Please, please, don't go after Kyle. I'll tell you who he is and what he did to me, but I don't want to press charges." Scottlynn told them as she begged
Amanda sighed softly, "Honey, what he did to you wasn't okay. We have to catch him and put him away so he doesn't hurt other little girls."
"Please he can't find out I told about him or what he did to me." Scottlynn added
"Scottlynn, sweetie, did Kyle threaten you?" Olivia asked
Scottlynn sniffled as tears started to stream down her face and she nodded, "Ye...yes. He said he'd kill me if I went to the hospital or the police."
"Okay well I promise we won't let that happen. We'll protect you, honey." Amanda said as she felt her heart breaking. "Don't worry about him or what he told you. Just tell us what he did to you."
Scottlynn took a deep breath and just looked into Olivia's kind, loving eyes, "Kyle was mine and Mollie's foster brother when I was ten and she was seven. Kyle was sixteen." Then she paused and took another deep breath, "He raped me tw...twice and mo...molested me. He t...touch...touched my pri...privates and my under...underdeveloped br...breasts. He also su...sucked on my nip...nipples. It...it hurt so bad." Then Scottlynn took another breath before adding, "And a few times he ma...made me give him a blow job." By now tears are flowing fast down Scottlynn's face as she sniffles.
"Does this Kyle have a last name?" Amanda asked
Scottlynn nodded, "Yingley."
"Okay we'll catch him. I promise." Amanda assured the girl "But honey, I have to ask. Did Kevin rape you?"
With tears still falling down her cheeks as Scottlynn nodded and begged, "Please don't send him to jail. Not for one mistake that he was drunk for and has spent the last two years trying to make up for. Unlike Kyle, he won't hurt another little girl. He's a good man. He's nothing like Kyle. Please convince the judge or whoever deals with this to plead down and only give him probation. He was one of the nicest foster parents Mollie and I had. I believe he really did love us. He never planned on hurting me." Then she added, "Please. My son needs his father."
"Okay I'll see what I can do." Olivia told Scottlynn
"Thank you, Lieutenant Benson." Scottlynn replied with a soft smile
After Amanda left the interrogation room and as Olivia is about to leave Scottlynn calls out to her, "Lieutenant Benson."
Olivia turned around and faced Scottlynn, "Yes sweetheart?"
"Um...I'm sorry for refusing to talk to you earlier and for not seeing when you can to the group home yesterday." Scottlynn apologized "And if you heard what I had yelled I'm sorry about that too. I didn't mean it. I don't know why I said those things." Then she looked down, "If you don't want to foster Finley and I anymore I'd understand."
Olivia felt her heart breaking as she walked over to Scottlynn and place her hand under the girl's chin forcing her to look up, "Scottlynn, sweetheart, I promise there is nothing you could do or say to make me not want to foster you and Finley. You two deserve a family and I want to give you that."
"O...ookay." Scottlynn stuttered as she sniffled and gave a small nod. Then she asked, "Am I still under arrest?"
Olivia shook her head, "No, you're a free young lady, Scottlynn."
Meanwhile at Amanda's desk, Amanda is sitting with Mollianne while talking to her.
"Mollie, honey, I hope you understand that I didn't want to arrest Scottlynn, but I didn't have a choice." Amanda explained "I was just listening to my lieutenant's orders."
Mollianne rolled her eyes, "Whatever ma."
"Don't roll your eyes at me. It's disrespectful, and I'm you're mother." Amanda said firmly
"No you're not. You're my mama and that's because I allowed you to be." Mollianne yelled "Scottlynn is my mom and my mother died."
Back with Scottlynn as she is walking out of the precinct, she thought back to what she told Dr. Haunt and flashes back to her's and Mollie's first and second foster home.
- Flashback -
Three year old, Scottlynn is in her first foster home with her one week baby sister Mollianne, which is colicky and crying.
"Shut the brat up!" Their foster father, Mr. Anderson yelled
Scottlynn sighed as she gently bounced Mollianne in her arms, "I'm trying, sir." Then she whispered, "Shh baby...shh don't cry. You're okay. Big sister Scottie is here. Please don't cry, baby."
Mollianne's cries however didn't let up, so Scottlynn decided to sing a song that mommy always sang to her.
"How long do you want to be loved? Is forever enough, is forever enough? How long do you want to be loved? Is forever enough? Cause I'm never, never giving you up." Scottlynn sang to her baby sister whose cries still didn't lessen.
"If you don't shut the brat up I'm going to shut her up myself." Mr. Anderson yelled
Scottlynn sighed as she begged, "Oh please Mollie, please baby, please stop crying. You're going to get us in trouble."
And then like magic, Mollianne looked up at Scottlynn with a very concerned look and immediately stopped crying.
Scottlynn smiled softly as she sighed relieved and gave Mollianne lots of kisses, "Oh thank you, Mollie. Thank you, baby. I love you so much. I promise to always love and protect you."

- Flashback -
Nine month old, Mollianne is crawling around their foster home, the Donati's and four year old Scottlynn is watching her to make sure Mollianne doesn't get into anything.
Mollianne looks back at Scottlynn every once in a while and smiles an almost toothless smile. She had one tooth in the front top and two teeth in the front bottom. Then she faces forward and crawls over to a cord and starts pulling on it. The cord is for a lamp that's on a side table.
"Mollie! No!" Scottlynn tells Mollianne, who still pulls on the cord.
"Mollianne! No stop!" Scottlynn yells firmly as she walks over to pick up Mollianne.
As Scottlynn picks up Mollianne, the lamp falls over and breaks. Scottlynn stares at the lamp shocked and scared while Mollianne smiles and claps.
Their foster mother, Karen Donati yells as she walks into the room, "What was that?! What did you do this time?!"
"I'm sorry." Scottlynn apologized as she set Mollianne on the ground behind her "I'm sorry. I broke your lamp. I tripped on the cord."
"What am I supposed to do now, you pest? I can't leave you and your worthless sister alone for five minutes." Karen yelled at Scottlynn as she hit the girl dozens of times "Clean up this mess. Now!"
Scottlynn nodded as use tried to hold the tears in, "Yes ma'am."
When Karen left the room Scottlynn picked up Mollianne.
"It's okay, baby. I'm okay." Scottlynn assured her sister
- End of flashback -
- Flashback -
Scottlynn is brought out of her thoughts when she hears Mollie calling out to her.
"Mom!" Mollianne yelled "Mom! Mommy!"
Scottlynn turned around and faces Mollie, "What's up, baby? Why aren't you with your mama?"
"I'm mad at her." Mollianne replied. Then she asked, "Where are you going?"
"To Kevin's." Scottlynn told Mollie "I was there with Finley before I was arrested. Finley's still there."
Mollianne nodded, "Can I go with you, mom?"
"Yeah of course, Mol." Scottlynn responded as Mollie smiled happily and they walked to Kevin's house.
Upon arriving at Kevin's house, they knocked on the door which was opened by a very shocked Kevin, who is holding Finley.
"I told them about Kyle." Scottlynn simply stated
