Evelyn: "Please! The water is freezing! My legs are cramping up!"
Richard: "You didn't care about Arthur's legs when you pushed his wheelchair into the water!"[cite: 1]
Arthur: "Dad, help me sit up... I want to watch her get arrested."
Richard knelt down gently, helping Arthur sit up against a patio lounge chair while wrapping a warm towel around his soaked shoulders[cite: 1].
Richard: "You're safe now, son. I swear to you, she will never hurt you again."
Arthur: "Thank you, Maya... if you hadn't jumped in so fast..."[cite: 1]
Maya: "I would never let anything happen to you, Mr. Sterling. You've always treated the staff here with respect."
The heavy iron gates at the front of the mansion creaked open as three Dallas police cruisers sped down the long estate driveway, their red and blue lights flashing against the white mansion walls[cite: 1].
Police Officer 1: "Dallas PD! Nobody move! Where is the suspect?!"
Richard: "She's right there in the pool, Officer! Struggling to stay afloat in the deep end!"[cite: 1]
Police Officer 2: "Ma'am, swim to the steps immediately and place your hands on the concrete!"
Evelyn paddled weakly toward the shallow end, her wet brown dress heavy and ruined as she dragged herself up the steps[cite: 1]. The two officers met her at the top, grabbing her arms and snapping steel handcuffs tightly around her wrists.
Evelyn: "Get your hands off me! I am Evelyn Sterling! My family owns half of this city!"
Police Officer 1: "I don't care if you own the White House, ma'am. You are under arrest for attempted capital murder."
Evelyn: "It was an accident! I fell in!"[cite: 1]
Maya: "Officer, here is the original digital memory card from the outdoor security camera."[cite: 1]
Police Officer 2: "We'll take that into evidence. Ma'am, you have the right to remain silent."
Evelyn: "Richard! Arthur! Don't do this to me! Think of our family reputation!"
Richard: "Our reputation will be just fine once you're locked behind bars where you belong."
The officers dragged the dripping, humiliated woman across the marble patio and out through the glass doors, her screaming voice fading away into the distance[cite: 1].
