(sighs) It's okay.

176
00:10:01,294 --> 00:10:03,027
You're just here
to check it out,

177
00:10:03,027 --> 00:10:05,428
and if you don't like it,
you don't have to stay.

178
00:10:05,428 --> 00:10:08,727
(protestors continue clamoring)

179
00:10:08,727 --> 00:10:10,893
- Hi. Are you Abby?
- I am.

180
00:10:10,893 --> 00:10:12,726
- Hi. I'm Summer.
- Summer, nice to meet you.

181
00:10:12,726 --> 00:10:14,727
Nice to meet you, too.
Here, put this on

182
00:10:14,727 --> 00:10:16,060
so everyone knows
you're with the clinic.

183
00:10:16,060 --> 00:10:17,389
I'll hold this for you.

184
00:10:20,192 --> 00:10:22,726
So, really, is this normal?

185
00:10:22,726 --> 00:10:24,660
Just ignore them.

186
00:10:24,660 --> 00:10:27,659
When a client shows up, we head
for the car immediately,

187
00:10:27,659 --> 00:10:30,293
so there's someone waiting
when she opens her door.

188
00:10:30,293 --> 00:10:32,424
When she opens it,
start talking right away.

189
00:10:32,424 --> 00:10:33,958
- About what?
- Anything.

190
00:10:33,958 --> 00:10:35,825
The weather,
her car, her clothes.

191
00:10:35,825 --> 00:10:37,792
Anything to distract her from
the voices through the fence.

192
00:10:37,792 --> 00:10:39,124
They're gonna be harassing her.

193
00:10:39,124 --> 00:10:41,224
You need to make sure your
voice is the one she hears.

194
00:10:41,224 --> 00:10:42,658
I'll go with you
the first few times

195
00:10:42,658 --> 00:10:44,225
to make sure you get
the hang of it, okay?

196
00:10:44,225 --> 00:10:46,057
- Okay.
- Okay.

197
00:10:46,057 --> 00:10:48,157
We've still got a few minutes
before our first arrival.

198
00:10:48,157 --> 00:10:49,725
Let's introduce you to Cheryl.

199
00:10:49,725 --> 00:10:52,956
The access code is 2-2-2-9.

200
00:10:52,956 --> 00:10:54,824
Uh, I'm awful
at remembering those.

201
00:10:54,824 --> 00:10:58,255
- Oh, it's easy. It spells
"baby." - (door buzzes)

202
00:10:58,255 --> 00:11:01,256
- Make sure to xerox
the first two and file. - Okay.

203
00:11:01,256 --> 00:11:02,957
Excuse me. Cheryl?
This is Abby.

204
00:11:02,957 --> 00:11:04,688
She's our newest
volunteer escort.

205
00:11:04,688 --> 00:11:06,823
Abby, this is Cheryl
D'Alessandro, clinic director.

206
00:11:06,823 --> 00:11:08,923
- Welcome. Nice to meet you.
- You, too.

207
00:11:08,923 --> 00:11:10,990
- Let me take this for you.
- Thank you.

208
00:11:10,990 --> 00:11:13,189
Samantha? Here, come here.

209
00:11:13,189 --> 00:11:15,189
- Put that in a locker for me,
if you would. - Okay.

210
00:11:15,189 --> 00:11:17,223
Summer, why don't you keep
an eye on the parking lot.

211
00:11:17,223 --> 00:11:19,421
- Sure thing.
- Okay.

212
00:11:19,421 --> 00:11:21,055
Why do they all think

213
00:11:21,055 --> 00:11:23,723
that the women coming in
are having abortions?

214
00:11:23,723 --> 00:11:25,721
Uh, you do offer
other services, right?

215
00:11:25,721 --> 00:11:27,421
Not on Saturday.

216
00:11:27,421 --> 00:11:30,820
On Saturdays, we only do
abortions, and they know that.

217
00:11:30,820 --> 00:11:32,987
Especially
the Coalition for Life.

218
00:11:32,987 --> 00:11:34,987
- They're like vultures.
- (chuckles softly)

219
00:11:34,987 --> 00:11:36,254
Their office is
right up the street,

220
00:11:36,254 --> 00:11:38,187
and their whole purpose
is to turn the community

221
00:11:38,187 --> 00:11:40,120
against us
and to try to shut us down.

222
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,021
Here we go. First client.

223
00:11:42,021 --> 00:11:44,353
- Go ahead.
- Make sure to keep her moving.

224
00:11:44,353 --> 00:11:45,720
- MAN: Hey, princess.
- (protestors clamoring)

225
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,020
Does Daddy know
that you're here?

226
00:11:47,020 --> 00:11:49,253
Yeah, yeah. Does he know
that you're killing

227
00:11:49,253 --> 00:11:51,086
his little grandbabies
right now?

228
00:11:51,086 --> 00:11:52,753
Oh, here they come.
Hi, Twinkies. How you doing?

229
00:11:52,753 --> 00:11:55,087
- Hey. Yeah, ignore me.
- Hi there.

230
00:11:55,087 --> 00:11:57,285
Starting to warm up, isn't it?
I love the color of your shirt.

231
00:11:57,285 --> 00:11:59,919
MAN: No matter what good things
you do in your life,

232
00:11:59,919 --> 00:12:01,986
you're still gonna be
a baby killer!

233
00:12:01,986 --> 00:12:03,984
All right. Look at me
and keep walking.

234
00:12:03,984 --> 00:12:07,119
And all this because you
couldn't keep your legs closed!

235
00:12:07,119 --> 00:12:08,353
Keep walking, basic!

236
00:12:08,353 --> 00:12:10,017
I'm talking to
the baby killer, not you!

237
00:12:10,017 --> 00:12:12,352
SUMMER: Abby, can you get
the door for her?

238
00:12:12,352 --> 00:12:13,984
Hey, you don't have to do this!

239
00:12:13,984 --> 00:12:16,019
Hey, get back here!
I'm talking to you!

240
00:12:16,019 --> 00:12:18,784
Okay, she's gonna take care
of you now, all right?

241
00:12:18,784 --> 00:12:20,151
- Thank you.
- Okay.

242
00:12:20,151 --> 00:12:22,952
I need you
to sign in here for me.

243
00:12:22,952 --> 00:12:24,250
Okay.

244
00:12:24,250 --> 00:12:27,284
The time now is 8:42.

245
00:12:27,284 --> 00:12:29,251
(man shouts)

246
00:12:31,950 --> 00:12:35,184
Okay. Your turn.

247
00:12:35,184 --> 00:12:37,649
WOMAN: Hi. I'm here from
the Coalition for Life.

248
00:12:37,649 --> 00:12:40,883
We know this is
a really hard day for you.

249
00:12:40,883 --> 00:12:42,948
We're here because
we care about you.

250
00:12:42,948 --> 00:12:45,449
Hi. Good morning.
How are you?

251
00:12:45,449 --> 00:12:46,782
- Good.
- Nice weather, right?

252
00:12:46,782 --> 00:12:48,817
- Yeah.
- Don't mind them.

253
00:12:48,817 --> 00:12:51,015
WOMAN: Your little baby
already has a beating heart,

254
00:12:51,015 --> 00:12:53,782
and she loves you
with all of it.

255
00:12:53,782 --> 00:12:57,838
What you're doing right now
doesn't seem like caring to me.

256
00:12:59,716 --> 00:13:01,882
I'm sorry. Come on.

257
00:13:01,882 --> 00:13:04,781
(sighs) We'll just get you
inside, okay?

258
00:13:04,781 --> 00:13:07,349
Just walk through that door.

259
00:13:07,349 --> 00:13:09,146
They don't understand.

260
00:13:09,146 --> 00:13:11,448
- Hey. My name's Marilisa.
- (door buzzes in distance)

261
00:13:11,448 --> 00:13:13,147
I'm with
the Coalition for Life,

262
00:13:13,147 --> 00:13:15,015
and we just wanted
to let you know

263
00:13:15,015 --> 00:13:18,014
that we have other options
for you if you're interested

264
00:13:18,014 --> 00:13:19,680
or if you want to talk.

265
00:13:19,680 --> 00:13:21,114
Damn it! They got one.

266
00:13:21,114 --> 00:13:23,113
I just wish they'd leave
these poor women alone.

267
00:13:23,113 --> 00:13:24,738
MARILISA:
...feel safe and comfortable.

268
00:13:26,013 --> 00:13:27,780
- Elena, turn on the sprinklers.
- Come on.

269
00:13:27,780 --> 00:13:30,979
Renee, call the police
and report a disturbance.

270
00:13:30,979 --> 00:13:33,813
Okay. But the last time
we did that,

271
00:13:33,813 --> 00:13:35,845
the cops weren't super thrilled
when they showed up

272
00:13:35,845 --> 00:13:37,346
and nobody was doing
anything illegal.

273
00:13:37,346 --> 00:13:40,608
The number you're trying
to remember is 911.

274
00:13:42,678 --> 00:13:45,076
Okay. Yep. Yeah. Okay.

275
00:13:46,912 --> 00:13:49,911
(people shouting, screaming)

276
00:13:49,911 --> 00:13:52,645
MAN:
Get the baby!

277
00:13:52,645 --> 00:13:54,776
ABBY:
When my shift was over,

278
00:13:54,776 --> 00:13:58,178
I couldn't wait
to get out of there.

279
00:13:58,178 --> 00:14:01,843
Hey. I don't think
I've seen you here before.

280
00:14:01,843 --> 00:14:03,744
No, it's my first day.

281
00:14:03,744 --> 00:14:05,711
Can you tell me
why you're volunteering?

282
00:14:05,711 --> 00:14:08,042
(sighs)

283
00:14:08,042 --> 00:14:10,043
I don't know
if I'm coming back,

284
00:14:10,043 --> 00:14:11,711
so I'm just checking it out.

285
00:14:11,711 --> 00:14:14,278
Can I ask your name?

286
00:14:14,278 --> 00:14:15,909
Abby.

287
00:14:15,909 --> 00:14:17,776
- Abby.
- Mm-hmm.

288
00:14:17,776 --> 00:14:20,675
Abby, you do know that they
perform abortions here, right?

289
00:14:25,076 --> 00:14:28,442
You know, actually,
I've had an abortion myself.

290
00:14:28,442 --> 00:14:30,675
So I don't have any problem
with another woman

291
00:14:30,675 --> 00:14:31,875
making the same decision.

292
00:14:31,875 --> 00:14:33,209
I'm so sorry
you had to go through that.

293
00:14:33,209 --> 00:14:35,075
No, it's okay. Really.

294
00:14:35,075 --> 00:14:37,208
It was my decision.
No one forced me to do it.

295
00:14:37,208 --> 00:14:39,842
Well, if you ever want to talk
to anyone about anything...

296
00:14:39,842 --> 00:14:42,641
God, do you people ever stop?

297
00:14:42,641 --> 00:14:45,241
These women are hurting.
Why are you doing this to them?

298
00:14:45,241 --> 00:14:47,673
We're not here to hurt them
or condemn them.

299
00:14:47,673 --> 00:14:48,940
We're here to help them.

300
00:14:48,940 --> 00:14:50,641
By dressing up in costumes

301
00:14:50,641 --> 00:14:52,407
and showing them horrible
pictures to scare them?

302
00:14:52,407 --> 00:14:55,139
In what world would a woman
run to someone dressed like

303
00:14:55,139 --> 00:14:59,240
the Grim Reaper for help
with her crisis pregnancy?

304
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,106
I am with the Coalition
for Life, and they're not.

305
00:15:02,106 --> 00:15:04,640
So we can ask them to stop,
and we do.

306
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,105
But we can't force them
to do anything.

307
00:15:07,105 --> 00:15:11,273
So for what it's worth,
I think you're right, Abby.

308
00:15:11,273 --> 00:15:12,773
Doesn't help.

309
00:15:12,773 --> 00:15:14,705
Marilisa, leave her alone.

310
00:15:14,705 --> 00:15:16,672
Abby, get in your car.

311
00:15:22,771 --> 00:15:24,738
(engine starts)

312
00:15:28,004 --> 00:15:29,905
ABBY:
Looking back, I'm surprised

313
00:15:29,905 --> 00:15:33,003
I admitted my having had
an abortion to Marilisa.

314
00:15:33,003 --> 00:15:35,837
I'd never told that to anyone.

315
00:15:35,837 --> 00:15:39,271
Meaning I probably ought to
take a moment to explain.

316
00:15:41,970 --> 00:15:45,304
In college, I'd gone from
small-town super achiever

317
00:15:45,304 --> 00:15:48,103
to party girl in no time.

318
00:15:48,103 --> 00:15:52,004
Literally, from the moment
my parents dropped me off.

319
00:15:52,004 --> 00:15:54,369
Mark lived in my building,

320
00:15:54,369 --> 00:15:56,270
and was ten years
older than me.

321
00:15:56,270 --> 00:15:58,170
We started dating...

322
00:15:58,170 --> 00:16:00,668
nothing serious,

323
00:16:00,668 --> 00:16:04,624
until the day I saw two lines
on my pregnancy test kit.

324
00:16:10,202 --> 00:16:13,335
Hey. It's all right.
It's all right.

325
00:16:13,335 --> 00:16:15,858
We'll take you to a clinic
and take care of it.

326
00:16:16,868 --> 00:16:18,302
What do you mean?

327
00:16:18,302 --> 00:16:20,767
I know a place, in Houston.

328
00:16:20,767 --> 00:16:23,325
How do you know a place
in Houston?

329
00:16:27,067 --> 00:16:30,001
ABBY: Naturally,
Mark didn't have the $500

330
00:16:30,001 --> 00:16:32,099
it would take to "get it done."

331
00:16:32,099 --> 00:16:33,433
Neither did I.

332
00:16:33,433 --> 00:16:36,233
So I applied for
my very first credit card.

333
00:16:36,233 --> 00:16:38,865
I kept thinking,

334
00:16:38,865 --> 00:16:42,000
"I can't tell my parents
about this.

335
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,233
"They can't know
I'm having sex.

336
00:16:44,233 --> 00:16:47,199
They can't know I'm pregnant."

337
00:16:47,199 --> 00:16:49,933
I remember there was
no one outside,

338
00:16:49,933 --> 00:16:52,732
but the waiting room
was packed.

339
00:16:52,732 --> 00:16:54,198
(tires screech)

340
00:16:54,198 --> 00:16:56,865
My next clear memory
was of finding myself

341
00:16:56,865 --> 00:16:59,098
lying on a table,
feet in stirrups,

342
00:16:59,098 --> 00:17:02,065
with a painful pressure
building in my abdomen.

343
00:17:02,065 --> 00:17:04,166
- (groans)
- I could hear myself groaning,

344
00:17:04,166 --> 00:17:06,064
but it sounded distant.

345
00:17:06,064 --> 00:17:08,724
You're fine, honey.
Just relax.

346
00:17:10,765 --> 00:17:13,331
ABBY: I remember waking up
slumped forward,

347
00:17:13,331 --> 00:17:16,265
sitting in
a hard plastic chair.

348
00:17:16,265 --> 00:17:18,997
My chair was one in a line

349
00:17:18,997 --> 00:17:22,030
filled by the girls who'd been
in the waiting room with me.

350
00:17:22,030 --> 00:17:24,098
Some were staring at the floor.

351
00:17:24,098 --> 00:17:25,896
Some were rocking
with their arms

352
00:17:25,896 --> 00:17:27,930
wrapped around their bellies.

353
00:17:27,930 --> 00:17:30,631
Some were softly crying.

354
00:17:30,631 --> 00:17:32,891
I was handed a few crackers.

355
00:17:35,697 --> 00:17:38,429
I slammed the experience
into a box, nailed it shut,

356
00:17:38,429 --> 00:17:40,429
stashed it in a dark corner
of my soul,

357
00:17:40,429 --> 00:17:42,191
and pretended
it never happened.

358
00:17:44,227 --> 00:17:48,295
But I wasn't finished
making bad decisions yet.

359
00:17:48,295 --> 00:17:50,363
Abby, it's not too late
to stop this.

360
00:17:50,363 --> 00:17:52,695
I'll go grab the car,
you slip out that door,

361
00:17:52,695 --> 00:17:54,262
and we will drive away.

362
00:17:54,262 --> 00:17:56,329
I can't do that to my parents.

363
00:17:56,329 --> 00:17:58,727
- Abby, your parents
would be thrilled. - (scoffs)

364
00:17:58,727 --> 00:18:02,062

ABBY:
To call our marriage a fiasco

369
00:18:20,360 --> 00:18:22,760
would be an insult
to fiascoes.

370
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,025
The last straw was a year later
on Valentine's Day.

371
00:18:25,025 --> 00:18:27,225
- (sportscast playing on TV)
- Mark decided we'd celebrate

372
00:18:27,225 --> 00:18:28,959
by making sandwiches.

373
00:18:28,959 --> 00:18:31,391
But later that night,
after we'd gone to bed,

374
00:18:31,391 --> 00:18:34,826
he slipped out of the apartment
to be with another woman.

375
00:18:34,826 --> 00:18:37,325
I filed for divorce
the next day,

376
00:18:37,325 --> 00:18:41,159
anxious to be free of this man,
feeling like I already was,

377
00:18:41,159 --> 00:18:43,624
until a few weeks later...

378
00:18:43,624 --> 00:18:45,091
(whispers):
Not again.

379
00:18:45,091 --> 00:18:47,325
ABBY:
Panic and grief overwhelmed me.

380
00:18:47,325 --> 00:18:50,956
I didn't want to be connected
to this man in any way.

381
00:18:50,956 --> 00:18:52,857
- (sighs) -And if I were
to have his child,

382
00:18:52,857 --> 00:18:56,289
I'd be connected to him
for the rest of my life.

383
00:18:56,289 --> 00:19:00,691
So my next visit to the clinic
wasn't as a volunteer escort

384
00:19:00,691 --> 00:19:03,122
but as a client.

385
00:19:03,122 --> 00:19:05,189
I never saw
the ultrasound image.

386
00:19:05,189 --> 00:19:09,121
But the nurse practitioner told
me I was eight weeks along,

387
00:19:09,121 --> 00:19:12,323
which made me eligible for
a chemically induced abortion,

388
00:19:12,323 --> 00:19:15,821
better known as
the RU-486 abortion pill.

389
00:19:15,821 --> 00:19:18,422
The cutoff was nine weeks.

390
00:19:18,422 --> 00:19:20,690
It seemed more private,

391
00:19:20,690 --> 00:19:24,655
less invasive, more natural.

392
00:19:24,655 --> 00:19:28,389
So I handed over $400
and took the first pill.

393
00:19:28,389 --> 00:19:30,788
RENEE:
Tomorrow, whenever you're ready,

394
00:19:30,788 --> 00:19:33,221
you're gonna take the four
pills in this little brown bag.

395
00:19:33,221 --> 00:19:34,822
That's misoprostol.

396
00:19:34,822 --> 00:19:36,787
It's gonna just gently
empty out your uterus.

397
00:19:36,787 --> 00:19:38,654
And there's gonna be
a little bleeding,

398
00:19:38,654 --> 00:19:40,721
but nothing more than
like a heavy period.

399
00:19:40,721 --> 00:19:42,153
And, uh, if there's
any cramping,

400
00:19:42,153 --> 00:19:43,642
you can take some ibuprofen.

ABBY: The next day,
I did as I was told.

405
00:19:59,787 --> 00:20:02,751
I ate a light lunch and took
the pills inside my brown bag.

406

I was told I would probably
start bleeding

after I graduated with

my cause became my career,

despite the disapproval of
virtually everyone in my life.

471
00:24:03,203 --> 00:24:05,902
The way I see it,
the real issue is viability.

472
00:24:05,902 --> 00:24:08,403
At that point, the fetus
could live outside the womb.

473
00:24:08,403 --> 00:24:10,367
But before that,
it's just undeveloped tissue

474

survive on its own.

Viability keeps changing

Are you saying that the measure
of what's moral or immoral

479
00:24:21,735 --> 00:24:23,136
changes as
medical science advances?

480

518
00:26:21,325 --> 00:26:22,859
MIKE:
Her mother and I.

519
00:26:22,859 --> 00:26:25,059
ABBY:
This time with a guy

520
00:26:25,059 --> 00:26:27,185
who actually loved me.

521
00:26:31,825 --> 00:26:33,926
MARILISA: We do have other days
that you can volunteer

522
00:26:33,926 --> 00:26:35,358
or other shifts
if this isn't one

523
00:26:35,358 --> 00:26:36,792
that works out for you, but...

524
00:26:36,792 --> 00:26:38,758
Just one second. Hold on.

525
00:26:40,293 --> 00:26:41,958
Abby.

526
00:26:41,958 --> 00:26:45,292
Hi, Marilisa.
Any sign of the Grim Reaper?

527
00:26:45,292 --> 00:26:47,292
- No, thankfully.
- Mm.

528
00:26:47,292 --> 00:26:48,990
You look really nice today.

529
00:26:48,990 --> 00:26:50,357
Well, thank you.

530
00:26:50,357 --> 00:26:52,292
I am the new counselor.

531
00:26:52,292 --> 00:26:54,290
Well, I am sure
you are going to be

532
00:26:54,290 --> 00:26:56,057
the best counselor
they have ever had.

533
00:26:56,057 --> 00:26:57,990
Friend?

534
00:26:57,990 --> 00:27:00,158
- Fiancé.
- Oh. (laughs)

535
00:27:00,158 --> 00:27:02,390
Yeah. She makes me come here.

536
00:27:02,390 --> 00:27:04,990
Liar. He was out here
praying most Saturdays.

537
00:27:04,990 --> 00:27:07,889
All he did was change it
to every Saturday.

538
00:27:07,889 --> 00:27:10,590
Well, congratulations, you two.

539
00:27:10,590 --> 00:27:12,057
I wish you every happiness.

540
00:27:12,057 --> 00:27:13,782
Thanks, Abby.

541
00:27:16,889 --> 00:27:18,223
ABBY:
At this stage,

542
00:27:18,223 --> 00:27:19,690
between six and eight weeks,

543
00:27:19,690 --> 00:27:21,588
it's just fetal matter,
a lump of tissue,

544
00:27:21,588 --> 00:27:24,389
not much more than a polyp
or a blood clot.

545
00:27:24,389 --> 00:27:27,655
- So it's not a baby yet?
- No, not at all.

546
00:27:27,655 --> 00:27:30,788
- And it can't feel any pain?
- None whatsoever.

547
00:27:30,788 --> 00:27:32,922
That's a concern
for a lot of women.

548
00:27:32,922 --> 00:27:35,254
And to be honest,
it was a concern for me, too.

549
00:27:35,254 --> 00:27:38,222
But the one thing
that all experts agree on

550
00:27:38,222 --> 00:27:41,186
is that, at this stage,
the fetus can't feel anything.

551
00:27:44,154 --> 00:27:46,953
- There's still a part of me
that isn't sure. - I know.

552
00:27:46,953 --> 00:27:48,220
Trust me.

553
00:27:48,220 --> 00:27:51,254
Nobody wants
to have an abortion.

554
00:27:51,254 --> 00:27:55,686
Not like they want a new car
or an ice-cream cone.

555
00:27:55,686 --> 00:27:59,221
But most of the women
who sit in that chair

556
00:27:59,221 --> 00:28:01,386
already know
that this is a pregnancy

557
00:28:01,386 --> 00:28:03,352
they aren't prepared
to deal with.

558
00:28:03,352 --> 00:28:05,820
It just takes a little time
to realize it.

559
00:28:05,820 --> 00:28:07,818
(sniffles softly)

560
00:28:07,818 --> 00:28:10,085
Assuming that you want
to go forward,

561
00:28:10,085 --> 00:28:12,584
the procedure we'll be
performing is called a vacuum...

562
00:28:12,584 --> 00:28:14,285
ABBY: About that time,
Doug and I decided

563
00:28:14,285 --> 00:28:16,985
that we wanted to make worship
a part of our lives.

564
00:28:16,985 --> 00:28:19,784
We found a church
that seemed to be a good fit.

565
00:28:19,784 --> 00:28:23,151
But most Sunday mornings, I
just felt left out in the cold.

566
00:28:23,151 --> 00:28:25,783
"For You created
my innermost being.

567
00:28:25,783 --> 00:28:28,150
"You knit me together
in my mother's womb.

568
00:28:28,150 --> 00:28:30,151
"I praise You because
I am fearfully

569
00:28:30,151 --> 00:28:31,885
"and wonderfully made.

570
00:28:31,885 --> 00:28:35,784
All Your works are wonderful,
and I know them full well."

571
00:28:35,784 --> 00:28:38,849
What's awesome about
this passage is that we see

572
00:28:38,849 --> 00:28:41,349
that in-in the silence
of the womb,

573
00:28:41,349 --> 00:28:45,051
God is still forming
and fashioning people

574
00:28:45,051 --> 00:28:47,683
in His image
and in His likeness.

575
00:28:47,683 --> 00:28:50,050
- Yeah.
- I know exactly how you feel.

576
00:28:50,050 --> 00:28:51,714
I mean, I'm Catholic,

577
00:28:51,714 --> 00:28:53,915
and, on Sunday, I heard
a sermon about abortion.

578
00:28:53,915 --> 00:28:56,850
(scoffs) I don't care
what anyone says.

579
00:28:56,850 --> 00:28:58,780
I know that I'm doing
God's work here.

580
00:29:00,615 --> 00:29:02,149
Well, you guys will never guess

581
00:29:02,149 --> 00:29:04,082
who knocked on my door
last night.

582
00:29:04,082 --> 00:29:06,814
- Who?
- (laughs): Shawn Carney.

583
00:29:06,814 --> 00:29:08,814
- Shut up.
- Wait, wait, wait.

584
00:29:08,814 --> 00:29:10,215
Sheriff Woody at the fence?

585
00:29:10,215 --> 00:29:11,249
- That Shawn Carney?
- RENEE: Yeah. Oh, yeah.

586
00:29:11,249 --> 00:29:13,247
- What did he want?
- Oh, it was so weird.

587
00:29:13,247 --> 00:29:16,081
I open the door,
and I recognize him.

588
00:29:16,081 --> 00:29:17,215
I'm like, "I know who you are."

589
00:29:17,215 --> 00:29:20,613
And he recognizes me, too,
and he gets all bashful.

590
00:29:20,613 --> 00:29:22,247
And he's like,
"Well, we're-we're just doing

591
00:29:22,247 --> 00:29:23,981
"this, uh, simple campaign.

592
00:29:23,981 --> 00:29:25,380
- (laughs) -"We're trying
to get people to pray

593
00:29:25,380 --> 00:29:27,980
for an end to abortion
for the next, like, 40 days."

594
00:29:27,980 --> 00:29:30,314
And I said, "40 days? Like
Noah and the flood 40 days?"

595
00:29:30,314 --> 00:29:32,279
- Stop! - No!
- I did.

596
00:29:32,279 --> 00:29:34,146
- I know. And he's like...
- You are horrible.

597
00:29:34,146 --> 00:29:35,780
Oh, you would've said the same.

598
00:29:35,780 --> 00:29:37,314
- I... You would've
said the same. - (laughter)

599
00:29:37,314 --> 00:29:39,279
- Okay, hold on,
hold on, hold on. - Yeah?

600
00:29:39,279 --> 00:29:40,879
How many doors
is he knocking on?

601
00:29:40,879 --> 00:29:44,144
Try and guess. You can't.
25,000.

602
00:29:44,144 --> 00:29:46,212
- Where?
- Yeah. Everywhere.

603
00:29:46,212 --> 00:29:47,979
Everywhere.

604
00:29:47,979 --> 00:29:49,979
- How is that even possible?
- What does that even mean?

605
00:29:49,979 --> 00:29:51,578
- You think he's lying?
- No.

606
00:29:51,578 --> 00:29:53,578
Kid like that
doesn't know how to lie.

607
00:29:53,578 --> 00:29:56,545
- That's true. - (laughs)
- Pro-lifers are so serious.

608
00:30:01,978 --> 00:30:03,843
ABBY:
Mmm.

609
00:30:03,843 --> 00:30:05,677
- (microwave bell dings)
- Cheryl, those shoes

610
00:30:05,677 --> 00:30:07,143
- are amazing.
- I know. Thank you.

611
00:30:12,143 --> 00:30:14,310
- You really fit here.
- Thank you.

612
00:30:14,310 --> 00:30:15,877
Are you enjoying it?

613
00:30:15,877 --> 00:30:17,809
Yeah, absolutely.
(chuckles)

614
00:30:17,809 --> 00:30:19,343
You know what,
I think it's time

615
00:30:19,343 --> 00:30:21,210
for you to take the next step.

616
00:30:21,210 --> 00:30:24,142
I'd like you to meet me in
the POC room in five minutes.

617
00:30:24,142 --> 00:30:26,108
- Okay.
- Okay.

618
00:30:29,577 --> 00:30:30,942
- Did you hear that?
- Mm-hmm.

619
00:30:30,942 --> 00:30:33,908
I really fit in here.

620
00:30:33,908 --> 00:30:36,974
Mm-hmm. Do you know
what POC stands for?

621
00:30:36,974 --> 00:30:39,108
Products of conception.

622
00:30:39,108 --> 00:30:41,276
Pieces of children.

623
00:30:41,276 --> 00:30:43,001
Hope you had a light breakfast.

624
00:30:44,841 --> 00:30:46,842
ABBY:
In our facility,

625
00:30:46,842 --> 00:30:49,773
the POC room was
the Holy of Holies.

626
00:30:49,773 --> 00:30:52,240
Most of the staff
never set foot in there.

627
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,907
After a surgical abortion,
each fetus

628
00:30:54,907 --> 00:30:57,274
had to be carefully reassembled
in a petri dish

629
00:30:57,274 --> 00:30:59,607
to make sure that none of
its parts were missing.

630
00:30:59,607 --> 00:31:01,074
Because if they were,

631
00:31:01,074 --> 00:31:04,239
it meant that they were
still inside the patient.

632
00:31:04,239 --> 00:31:07,307
By the end of the day,
there'd be 30 or 40 dishes,

633
00:31:07,307 --> 00:31:10,897
and the doctors would
have to sign off on each one.

634
00:31:12,706 --> 00:31:14,263
I want you to see something.

635
00:31:16,138 --> 00:31:17,798
Go ahead.

636
00:31:26,338 --> 00:31:29,030
It's amazing.
You can see everything.

637
00:31:31,105 --> 00:31:33,305
Do you know what's happened
with every other person

638
00:31:33,305 --> 00:31:35,273
who's come in here
and seen one of these?

639
00:31:35,273 --> 00:31:37,170
The first thing they do?

640
00:31:37,170 --> 00:31:40,372
They cry.

641
00:31:40,372 --> 00:31:43,937
But not you.

642
00:31:43,937 --> 00:31:46,104
That's how I know
you're the one.

643
00:31:46,104 --> 00:31:49,703
Very soon,
I'll be called up to Houston,

644
00:31:49,703 --> 00:31:52,837
and someone will need
to replace me here.

645
00:31:52,837 --> 00:31:55,267
Personally,
I'd like it to be you.

646
00:31:56,869 --> 00:31:58,737
I'd be honored.

647
00:31:58,737 --> 00:32:00,930
Good.

648
00:32:07,136 --> 00:32:10,369
Babe, are you sure
you're not pregnant?

649
00:32:10,369 --> 00:32:12,927
No, I am not pregnant.

650
00:32:14,734 --> 00:32:16,166
Okay.

651
00:32:17,668 --> 00:32:20,202
What makes you think that?

652
00:32:20,202 --> 00:32:22,099
Nothing in particular.

653
00:32:24,101 --> 00:32:26,168
Doug, I counsel pregnant women
every day,

654
00:32:26,168 --> 00:32:28,834
so don't you think
that if I were to conceive,

655
00:32:28,834 --> 00:32:31,096
despite being on the pill,
that I would be aware of it?

656
00:32:32,167 --> 00:32:33,935
Yeah, you're right.

657
00:32:33,935 --> 00:32:35,899
Forget I said anything.

658
00:32:40,735 --> 00:32:44,066
- Do you have a test kit handy?
- Yeah.

659
00:32:44,066 --> 00:32:45,896
For who?

660
00:32:52,733 --> 00:32:55,698
(toilet flushes)

661
00:32:55,698 --> 00:32:58,597
(water runs, stops)

662
00:33:02,198 --> 00:33:05,256
You know, we could take care
of that for you if you'd like.

663
00:33:10,665 --> 00:33:11,932
(door closes)

664
00:33:11,932 --> 00:33:13,596
What?!
Honey, that's wonderful!

665
00:33:13,596 --> 00:33:14,858
I-I didn't even know
you were trying!

666
00:33:16,098 --> 00:33:17,764
We weren't.

667
00:33:17,764 --> 00:33:21,596
Well, sometimes
the Lord just has a plan.

668
00:33:21,596 --> 00:33:23,931
- There's no chance...
- Don't worry, Mom.

669
00:33:23,931 --> 00:33:26,632
I never would have told you
if I wasn't sure.

670
00:33:26,632 --> 00:33:29,063
You're gonna be a grandpa.

671
00:33:29,063 --> 00:33:30,930
Ab?

672
00:33:30,930 --> 00:33:32,264
Hey, girl.

673
00:33:32,264 --> 00:33:34,296
Oh, we couldn't be
more proud of you.

674
00:33:34,296 --> 00:33:35,630
And you're committed

675
00:33:35,630 --> 00:33:37,796
to carrying this pregnancy
to term?

676
00:33:37,796 --> 00:33:39,197
I am.

677
00:33:39,197 --> 00:33:40,862
We are.

678
00:33:40,862 --> 00:33:45,730
We only have so much time,
so much energy.

679
00:33:45,730 --> 00:33:47,595
If you choose
to spend it elsewhere,

680
00:33:47,595 --> 00:33:49,996
there's less of you for here.

681
00:33:49,996 --> 00:33:52,196
I'm only telling you this
for your own good.

682
00:33:52,196 --> 00:33:54,794
I understand,
but once this baby's born,

683
00:33:54,794 --> 00:33:57,228
I promise,
I am back on the pill,

684
00:33:57,228 --> 00:33:58,751
and maybe this time
it will do its job.

685
00:34:00,361 --> 00:34:04,061
Look, I already warned Doug,
we are one and done.

686
00:34:04,061 --> 00:34:05,595
So, in the meantime,

687
00:34:05,595 --> 00:34:08,727
do you want to move me
to the lab or recovery?

688
00:34:08,727 --> 00:34:10,294

Abby, I am so glad you're here.

Hey, it's okay to be
a little bit nervous,

to worry about.

701

- Thank you.

702

I'll get you checked in, okay?

My parents are really

But what if I'm still
making a mistake?

707
00:34:50,958 --> 00:34:53,657
You're not.

Can you stay in here with me?

712
00:35:03,657 --> 00:35:07,190
Sweetie, I would,
but I am just a counselor.

713
00:35:07,190 --> 00:35:10,024
They don't want me in here
during the procedure.

714
00:35:10,024 --> 00:35:12,122
The whole thing will take
just a couple of minutes,

in the recovery room,

gonna remember anything?

Rob. Hey.

808
00:39:35,571 --> 00:39:37,072
Christina's fine.

809
00:39:37,072 --> 00:39:39,539
But we had another patient
who forgot to mention

810
00:39:39,539 --> 00:39:41,770
an allergy to a medication
that we use.

811
00:39:41,770 --> 00:39:43,770
So it's taking a little longer
than we'd like.

812
00:39:43,770 --> 00:39:45,538
- So she's okay?
- Oh, yes, she's...

813
00:39:45,538 --> 00:39:46,769
- Everything's all right?
- She's fine.

Oh, thank God.

815
00:39:48,804 --> 00:39:50,704
So how much longer
is she gonna be?

816
00:39:50,704 --> 00:39:53,869
Well, the doctor
should be in any second.

817
00:39:53,869 --> 00:39:55,836
The procedure only takes
a few minutes,

818
00:39:55,836 --> 00:39:58,737
and recovery will be
just a little longer.

819
00:39:58,737 --> 00:40:00,336
Thank you, Abby.

820
00:40:00,336 --> 00:40:02,536

00:42:18,926 --> 00:42:20,760
ABBY:
And later that afternoon,

858
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:22,127
after terminating
38 pregnancies

859
00:42:22,127 --> 00:42:23,592
in the space of four hours,

860
00:42:23,592 --> 00:42:26,693
we spent two hours
celebrating mine

861
00:42:26,693 --> 00:42:28,893
with cake and flowers
and baby gifts.

862
00:42:28,893 --> 00:42:31,687
- Aw. - This is so soft, too.
- Okay.

863
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:36,958
MARILISA:
Abby!

864
00:42:36,958 --> 00:42:38,825
- You're expecting!
- (chuckles)

865
00:42:38,825 --> 00:42:41,858
- What gave it away?
- (laughs)

866
00:42:41,858 --> 00:42:44,024
When are you due?

867
00:42:44,024 --> 00:42:47,124
- Thanksgiving.
- Mine, too.

868
00:42:47,124 --> 00:42:48,925
Seriously?

869
00:42:48,925 --> 00:42:50,791
- You're so tiny.
- (chuckles)

870
00:42:50,791 --> 00:42:53,024
Not for much longer.

871
00:42:53,024 --> 00:42:55,024
Think about how much fun
Christmas will be.

872
00:42:55,024 --> 00:42:58,324
Is there any greater blessing
than a new baby?

873
00:42:58,324 --> 00:43:00,958
It's okay.

874
00:43:00,958 --> 00:43:04,616
And I agree.
In the right circumstances.

875
00:43:09,655 --> 00:43:11,849
- Good to see you, Abby.
- You, too.

876
00:43:13,756 --> 00:43:15,557
(sighs)

877
00:43:15,557 --> 00:43:16,816
(chuckles)

878
00:43:21,523 --> 00:43:22,987
(laughs)

879
00:43:24,922 --> 00:43:26,922
ABBY:
Around that time,

880
00:43:26,922 --> 00:43:29,754
Shawn Carney and his friends
started their first ever

881
00:43:29,754 --> 00:43:32,088
40 Days for Life prayer-a-thon.

882
00:43:32,088 --> 00:43:35,022
24 hours a day,
seven days a week,

883
00:43:35,022 --> 00:43:37,688
there were people praying
outside of our clinic.

884
00:43:37,688 --> 00:43:39,255
CHERYL:
These are extremist zealots

885
00:43:39,255 --> 00:43:40,854
that will stop at nothing

886
00:43:40,854 --> 00:43:42,853
to restrict
a woman's right to choose.

887
00:43:42,853 --> 00:43:45,254
So, are you concerned for your
safety and that of your staff?

888
00:43:45,254 --> 00:43:47,021
Yes, absolutely. Violence
is a real possibility...

889
00:43:47,021 --> 00:43:49,553
ABBY:
Cheryl was beside herself,

890
00:43:49,553 --> 00:43:51,587
but I didn't
pay much attention.

891
00:43:51,587 --> 00:43:53,954
I was otherwise engaged.

892
00:43:53,954 --> 00:43:55,953
(screaming)

893
00:43:55,953 --> 00:43:59,253
(panting)

894
00:43:59,253 --> 00:44:02,052
(groans loudly)

895
00:44:02,052 --> 00:44:04,519
Baby? Baby?

896
00:44:04,519 --> 00:44:06,687
I hate to tell you this,

897
00:44:06,687 --> 00:44:09,219
but he says you're only
two centimeters apart.

898
00:44:09,219 --> 00:44:12,119
What?!

899
00:44:12,119 --> 00:44:13,752
(screams)

900
00:44:13,752 --> 00:44:16,118
Maybe it was a bad time
to bring it up.

901
00:44:16,118 --> 00:44:17,518
Just shut up!

902
00:44:17,518 --> 00:44:19,519
Just don't-don't touch me.

903
00:44:19,519 --> 00:44:22,518
ABBY:
And a mere 22 hours later...

904
00:44:22,518 --> 00:44:25,585
(groans)
Two centimeters!

905
00:44:25,585 --> 00:44:28,550
...I gave birth
to a precious baby girl.

906
00:44:28,550 --> 00:44:30,917
- We named her Grace.
- He's downstairs.

907
00:44:30,917 --> 00:44:33,118
He hasn't seen a poopy diaper
in a long time,

908
00:44:33,118 --> 00:44:35,783
and I think now's the
perfect time to show him one.

909
00:44:35,783 --> 00:44:38,273
Oh, he'll love that.
(chuckles)

910
00:44:40,785 --> 00:44:43,183
Are you looking forward
to being home?

911
00:44:43,183 --> 00:44:45,884
Yeah, for the next
eight weeks, I am.

912
00:44:45,884 --> 00:44:48,282
Don't you think
that child needs you?

913
00:44:48,282 --> 00:44:51,250
And she'll have me.

914
00:44:51,250 --> 00:44:54,148
Cheryl's being promoted
and transferred to Houston.

915
00:44:54,148 --> 00:44:56,615
She wants me to be
the director of the clinic.

916
00:44:57,816 --> 00:44:59,150
I would be
the youngest director

917
00:44:59,150 --> 00:45:01,582
in Planned Parenthood history.

918
00:45:01,582 --> 00:45:03,915
It's not the kind of
opportunity you just pass up.

919
00:45:03,915 --> 00:45:07,614
Abby, I don't know
what you want me to say.

920
00:45:07,614 --> 00:45:11,148
I'm proud of
your accomplishments. I am.

921
00:45:11,148 --> 00:45:13,746
But I can't pretend to like
your choice of career.

922
00:45:13,746 --> 00:45:17,181
Have you thought about
the fact that, as the director,

923
00:45:17,181 --> 00:45:19,915
you'll actually be in charge of
the abortions at your clinic?

924
00:45:19,915 --> 00:45:21,581
Don't you see
that it's different

925
00:45:21,581 --> 00:45:23,047
from counseling women
about their choices?

926
00:45:23,047 --> 00:45:24,847
Sure, but now I can make ours

927
00:45:24,847 --> 00:45:27,646
the best clinic
in the entire affiliate.

928
00:45:27,646 --> 00:45:31,581
And decrease the number
of unwanted pregnancies.

929
00:45:31,581 --> 00:45:33,807
This is my chance
to make a real difference.

930
00:45:35,780 --> 00:45:37,803
Mom, what's wrong?

931
00:45:39,881 --> 00:45:41,579
I guess I hoped
that Grace's birth

932
00:45:41,579 --> 00:45:44,112
meant the end of all this.

933
00:45:44,112 --> 00:45:46,204
But, um, obviously it doesn't.

934
00:45:50,946 --> 00:45:52,913
♪ ♪

935
00:46:07,977 --> 00:46:10,744
She's not leaving.

936
00:46:10,744 --> 00:46:15,110
I have to believe
that she will, sooner or later.

937
00:46:15,110 --> 00:46:17,611
No. (sniffles)

938
00:46:17,611 --> 00:46:19,943
She won't.

939
00:46:19,943 --> 00:46:21,909
She's got aspirations.

940
00:46:29,742 --> 00:46:31,577
(sighs)

941
00:46:31,577 --> 00:46:32,905
(Doug sighs)

942
00:46:35,842 --> 00:46:39,308
Babe, are we ever gonna
sleep again?

943
00:46:39,308 --> 00:46:41,142
No.

944
00:46:41,142 --> 00:46:43,909
But you're the one that gets
to get up tonight. (sighs)

945
00:46:43,909 --> 00:46:45,964
I get up every night.

946
00:46:48,875 --> 00:46:51,042
(Abby sighs)

947
00:46:51,042 --> 00:46:55,608
I'm gonna pray that if I'm not
supposed to get the job,

948
00:46:55,608 --> 00:46:58,075
then I won't get the promotion.

949
00:46:58,075 --> 00:47:01,507
But you already applied
for the job, right?

950
00:47:01,507 --> 00:47:02,840
Yeah. So?

951
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:04,875
So you're asking God
to show His will

952
00:47:04,875 --> 00:47:07,739
by stopping something that
you've already set in motion.

953
00:47:07,739 --> 00:47:11,208
Why not? He's God.
He can intervene.

954
00:47:11,208 --> 00:47:13,105
If I get the job,

955
00:47:13,105 --> 00:47:16,207
I'll know that it's His will
for me to run the clinic.

956
00:47:16,207 --> 00:47:18,905
Whatever you say, hon.

957
00:47:18,905 --> 00:47:20,064
Good night.

958
00:47:27,039 --> 00:47:30,272
ABBY: The next day,
I got the promotion.

959
00:47:30,272 --> 00:47:32,238
From now on, no more
harassing the protesters

960
00:47:32,238 --> 00:47:33,772
or calling the police

961
00:47:33,772 --> 00:47:35,638
unless we've identified
someone as dangerous.

962
00:47:35,638 --> 00:47:37,870
Wait, so we're just gonna give
the anti-choicers a free pass?

963
00:47:37,870 --> 00:47:39,871
We're going to treat them
with respect

964
00:47:39,871 --> 00:47:41,305
- and expect the same in return.
- (phone ringing)

965
00:47:41,305 --> 00:47:42,738
And definitely no turning on
the sprinklers.

966
00:47:42,738 --> 00:47:44,536
Planned Parenthood.
This is Renee.

967
00:47:44,536 --> 00:47:45,970
No more letting them
get under our skin

968
00:47:45,970 --> 00:47:47,904
or losing our tempers.

969
00:47:47,904 --> 00:47:49,571
We're doing a good thing here,

970
00:47:49,571 --> 00:47:51,169
and the best way
to reinforce that

971
00:47:51,169 --> 00:47:53,070
isn't with words but actions.

972
00:47:53,070 --> 00:47:55,938
Okay. Okay, ma'am.
Of course.

973
00:47:55,938 --> 00:47:58,503
Abby, there's a woman
circling the block right now,

974
00:47:58,503 --> 00:48:01,304
and she can't come in because
somebody's filming outside.

975
00:48:01,304 --> 00:48:02,937
This is the third complaint
this morning.

976
00:48:02,937 --> 00:48:04,235
I'll take care of this.

977
00:48:04,235 --> 00:48:06,969
Okay. Ma'am, I am
so sorry about that.

978
00:48:06,969 --> 00:48:09,303
My boss is on it right now.

979
00:48:09,303 --> 00:48:11,234
Are you getting everything?

980
00:48:14,303 --> 00:48:15,825
Uh-oh.

981
00:48:17,668 --> 00:48:20,168
- Hi. - Hi. Hi, Abby.
I-I hear you've been promoted.

982
00:48:20,168 --> 00:48:21,802
Yeah.

983
00:48:21,802 --> 00:48:23,602
I'll understand if you're not
anxious to congratulate me.

984
00:48:23,602 --> 00:48:24,768
No, actually I was
thinking that

985
00:48:24,768 --> 00:48:26,301
the women coming in here
will finally have someone

986
00:48:26,301 --> 00:48:28,302
who cares about them
running things.

987
00:48:28,302 --> 00:48:30,036
Is this your camera?

988
00:48:30,036 --> 00:48:32,601
- Yes.
- I need it gone.

989
00:48:32,601 --> 00:48:33,901
I'm sorry,
but we can't do that.

990
00:48:33,901 --> 00:48:36,101
Sure, you can.
Just take it off the tripod,

991
00:48:36,101 --> 00:48:38,099
pack it up and take it back
to your office.

992
00:48:38,099 --> 00:48:40,601
Abby, we've been accused
of a lot of things,

993
00:48:40,601 --> 00:48:42,167
some of them criminal.

994
00:48:42,167 --> 00:48:43,999
This camera is our best
evidence that what we're doing

995
00:48:43,999 --> 00:48:45,999
is peaceful
and nonconfrontational.

996
00:48:45,999 --> 00:48:48,167
Shawn, this is not the way

997
00:48:48,167 --> 00:48:51,999
that you want to start out
our new relationship, okay?

998
00:48:51,999 --> 00:48:54,033
Just angle it away from the
fence; that's all I'm asking.

999
00:48:54,033 --> 00:48:56,531
Can't do it. We need to see
what's actually going on.

1000
00:48:56,531 --> 00:48:59,566
If there's ever any question,
we need it to be clear.

1001
00:48:59,566 --> 00:49:01,300
Mm-hmm.

1002
00:49:01,300 --> 00:49:04,598
Sometimes I don't mind
you guys,

1003
00:49:04,598 --> 00:49:07,258
but this morning,
you're really pissing me off.

1004
00:49:12,097 --> 00:49:14,232
And for your information,
Shawn, there have always been

1005
00:49:14,232 --> 00:49:16,230
people willing to defend
basic human rights.

1006
00:49:16,230 --> 00:49:18,064
First there was
the fight against slavery.

1007
00:49:18,064 --> 00:49:19,997
Then it was the people who
stood up against the Holocaust.

1008
00:49:19,997 --> 00:49:22,232
Later it was a battle
for civil rights.

1009
00:49:22,232 --> 00:49:24,797
And now it is
Planned Parenthood standing up

1010
00:49:24,797 --> 00:49:26,497
for the reproductive rights
of women.

1011
00:49:26,497 --> 00:49:27,864
Abby, you don't need
to justify your job...

1012
00:49:27,864 --> 00:49:28,865
I'm not justifying
anything, okay?

1013
00:49:28,865 --> 00:49:30,496
I'm just trying
to explain to you...

1014
00:49:30,496 --> 00:49:31,664
And you don't need to explain
what you're doing either.

1015
00:49:31,664 --> 00:49:33,564
The truth is
you've just cited

1016
00:49:33,564 --> 00:49:35,164
three examples of injustice:

1017
00:49:35,164 --> 00:49:38,130
Slavery, segregation
and the Holocaust.

1018
00:49:38,130 --> 00:49:39,996
That can only occur
when a whole segment

1019
00:49:39,996 --> 00:49:42,131
of the population
is dehumanized.

1020
00:49:42,131 --> 00:49:45,823
And that's exactly what Planned
Parenthood does to the unborn.

1021
00:49:55,694 --> 00:49:57,894
Well, that went well.

1022
00:49:57,894 --> 00:50:00,259
Yeah. She'll be fine.

1023
00:50:04,627 --> 00:50:06,594
(screaming, shouting)

1024
00:50:11,694 --> 00:50:13,994
What are you smiling about?

1025
00:50:13,994 --> 00:50:17,294
You got to give her this.
She got us to move the camera.

1026
00:50:17,294 --> 00:50:18,893
(laughter)

1027
00:50:18,893 --> 00:50:20,661
ABBY: Part of my job
as clinic director

1028
00:50:20,661 --> 00:50:24,893
was selling abortions,
and I was really good at it.

1029
00:50:24,893 --> 00:50:27,060
You know those guys
who try to sell you time-shares

1030
00:50:27,060 --> 00:50:29,625
in places
you never even heard of?

1031
00:50:29,625 --> 00:50:32,193
They had nothing on me.

1032
00:50:32,193 --> 00:50:34,060
But, Jane,
you're eight weeks pregnant.

1033
00:50:34,060 --> 00:50:37,159
You've already spent $150
on an ultrasound.

1034
00:50:37,159 --> 00:50:39,493
If I book you today,
I'm authorized to credit that

1035
00:50:39,493 --> 00:50:40,793
towards the cost
of your procedure.

1036
00:50:40,793 --> 00:50:43,091
But if you walk
out of this office,

1037
00:50:43,091 --> 00:50:45,158
then the soonest I can book you
again is two weeks from today.

1038
00:50:45,158 --> 00:50:46,926
And at ten weeks,
the price goes up $100,

1039
00:50:46,926 --> 00:50:49,191
plus you lose the discount.

1040
00:50:49,191 --> 00:50:52,925
Choosing to wait's gonna
cost you an additional $250.

1041
00:50:52,925 --> 00:50:54,924
So, is there any reason
that we shouldn't go ahead

1042
00:50:54,924 --> 00:50:57,124
and schedule
your appointment today?

1043
00:50:57,124 --> 00:50:58,925
You take credit cards, right?

1044
00:50:58,925 --> 00:51:00,625
Absolutely.

1045
00:51:00,625 --> 00:51:03,723
Okay, can I put you
on hold, please?

1046
00:51:03,723 --> 00:51:06,090
Okay, thanks.

1047
00:51:06,090 --> 00:51:08,680
I'm not doing this.
This is all you.

I'm the clinic director.

Do you have a back parking lot?

00:51:15,956 --> 00:51:18,890
One where, like, I can't be
seen from the street?

1051
00:51:18,890 --> 00:51:20,090
No, I'm sorry, we don't.

1052
00:51:20,090 --> 00:51:21,721
All of our parking
is out front.

1053
00:51:21,721 --> 00:51:23,155
Is there a problem?

1054
00:51:23,155 --> 00:51:25,089
No. It's not
that big of a deal.

1055
00:51:25,089 --> 00:51:28,055
It's just that my family's
outside the clinic praying.

1056
00:51:28,055 --> 00:51:29,721
They know that
I'm coming in today,

1057
00:51:29,721 --> 00:51:31,055
and they're trying
to talk me out of it.

1058
00:51:31,055 --> 00:51:32,923
Okay. Um, how about this?

1059
00:51:32,923 --> 00:51:35,154
Park as close as you can
to the door,

1060
00:51:35,154 --> 00:51:37,121
and I will come out
and escort you in.

1061
00:51:40,887 --> 00:51:45,488

please don't do this.

LILY:
Why are you crying, Grammy?

1068
00:52:01,085 --> 00:52:04,020
Grammy's just
a little upset, okay?

1069
00:52:04,020 --> 00:52:05,854
- Hey, baby, let's go inside.
- Love you.

1070
00:52:05,854 --> 00:52:08,286
Let's go inside
with Mommy, okay?

1071
00:52:08,286 --> 00:52:09,986
Mommy's coming, too.
Let's go.

1072
00:52:09,986 --> 00:52:11,920
That baby you're carrying...

1073
00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:15,485
it's gonna be
just as beautiful as Lily.

1074
00:52:15,485 --> 00:52:19,817
Rhonda, think about the joy
that she's brought us!

1075
00:52:19,817 --> 00:52:21,984
Now think about
a world without her!

1076
00:52:21,984 --> 00:52:25,152
Rhonda, don't do this!

1077
00:52:25,152 --> 00:52:26,617
- Rhonda!
- Are you okay?

1078
00:52:26,617 --> 00:52:27,984
Because if you need
to talk about it,

1079
00:52:27,984 --> 00:52:30,018
you know, it seems like
you have a lot of support

1080
00:52:30,018 --> 00:52:32,219
from your family if you decided
to keep the baby.

1081
00:52:32,219 --> 00:52:33,783
It's okay.
That's just my mom.

1082
00:52:33,783 --> 00:52:34,951
It's how she is.

1083
00:52:34,951 --> 00:52:36,951

- How could she be fine?
- (crying): God, help me.

1088
00:52:45,949 --> 00:52:49,583
I was deeply shaken
by what I'd just seen.

Help me. Help me, God.

1090

ABBY: The family stayed
and prayed for an hour.

1091
00:52:55,116 --> 00:52:57,783

Looking back, it was like
a calm before the storm,

1128
00:55:38,172 --> 00:55:40,730
a really big storm.

1129
00:55:42,670 --> 00:55:45,838
Mention "Houston" and
"hurricane" in the same breath,

00:55:45,838 --> 00:55:47,938
and people immediately
think of Harvey.

1131
00:55:47,938 --> 00:55:49,670
Not many folks remember
Hurricane Ike,

1132
00:55:49,670 --> 00:55:52,737
which is really weird
given that, when it landed,

1133
00:55:52,737 --> 00:55:54,171
it was the third
most destructive hurricane

1134
00:55:54,171 --> 00:55:55,502
in U.S. History.

1135
00:55:55,502 --> 00:55:57,737
And what made Ike even scarier

1136
00:55:57,737 --> 00:56:00,171
was that it was headed
straight for us.

1137
00:56:00,171 --> 00:56:02,836

Mm, no. If anything were
to happen, we could be sued.

whose loser boyfriends

1199
00:58:13,093 --> 00:58:15,960
bailed on them
while they were inside,

1200
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:20,959
something that happened pretty
routinely, even on normal days.

1201
00:58:20,959 --> 00:58:23,926
(thunder rumbling)

1202
00:58:38,460 --> 00:58:40,458
- Mommy, you're home!
- Oh, hi, baby.

1203
00:58:40,458 --> 00:58:43,225
Mommy is wet.
(chuckles)

1204
00:58:43,225 --> 00:58:45,857
- Are you okay?
- Yeah, baby. Why?

1205
00:58:45,857 --> 00:58:49,052
Your shoes are all bloody.

1206
00:58:50,626 --> 00:58:54,158
Oh. You know what?

1207
00:58:54,158 --> 00:58:56,625
Mommy was helping a lady
at the office,

1208
00:58:56,625 --> 00:58:58,626
and she had a nosebleed.

1209
00:58:58,626 --> 00:59:01,724
But I took care of her,
and she's all better now.

1210
00:59:01,724 --> 00:59:03,525
Okay?

1211
00:59:03,525 --> 00:59:06,457
Guess what I'd really like
to do right now.

1212
00:59:06,457 --> 00:59:07,657
What?

1213
00:59:07,657 --> 00:59:10,524
Have a tea party,
just you and me.

1214
00:59:10,524 --> 00:59:12,156
Yay!

1215
00:59:12,156 --> 00:59:15,146
- I'll go get it all set up.
- (footsteps running up stairs)

1216
00:59:18,057 --> 00:59:20,189
Proud of yourself?

1217
00:59:20,189 --> 00:59:23,781
Nobody ever said
abortion was pretty.

00:59:27,588 --> 00:59:29,555

1219
00:59:35,688 --> 00:59:37,655

00:59:40,088 --> 00:59:42,188
CHERYL: Our first order
of business is to present

1221
00:59:42,188 --> 00:59:43,722
Planned Parenthood's

1222
00:59:43,722 --> 00:59:46,020
Employee of the Year award.

1223
00:59:46,020 --> 00:59:48,782
And the award goes to...
Abby Johnson.

1224
00:59:54,020 --> 00:59:55,554
- Congratulations, Abby.
- Thank you.

1225
00:59:55,554 --> 00:59:57,986
And, ladies, I don't think
it's any coincidence

1226
00:59:57,986 --> 01:00:00,053
that Abby's clinic
is the only one to be

1227
01:00:00,053 --> 01:00:02,787
consistently on target
on a month-to-month basis.

1228
01:00:02,787 --> 01:00:04,719
- Well done.
- (applause)

1229
01:00:04,719 --> 01:00:07,253
Second, I can finally confirm

1230
01:00:07,253 --> 01:00:10,187
the rumors that have been
swirling around.

1231
01:00:10,187 --> 01:00:12,519
National has given
its approval.

1232
01:00:12,519 --> 01:00:14,553
Gulf Coast will soon be
breaking ground

1233
01:00:14,553 --> 01:00:16,153
on this facility.

1234
01:00:16,153 --> 01:00:18,651
- (cheering)
- WOMAN: Yeah.

1235
01:00:18,651 --> 01:00:21,652
- (chuckles) Wow.
- CHERYL: That's right.

1236
01:00:21,652 --> 01:00:23,686
78,000 square feet

1237
01:00:23,686 --> 01:00:26,051
of state-of-the-art
medical center,

1238
01:00:26,051 --> 01:00:29,552
making us the largest
ambulatory surgical facility

1239
01:00:29,552 --> 01:00:31,817
in the Western Hemisphere,
allowing us to perform

1240
01:00:31,817 --> 01:00:34,618
procedures all the way
to 24 weeks.

1241
01:00:34,618 --> 01:00:37,550
But we're facing
some challenges as well.

1242
01:00:37,550 --> 01:00:40,017
Three hurricanes in four years
have emptied our cash reserves,

1243
01:00:40,017 --> 01:00:41,551
so take note.

1244
01:00:41,551 --> 01:00:43,749
We are expanding
chemically induced abortions

1245
01:00:43,749 --> 01:00:45,450
to every day of the week.

1246
01:00:45,450 --> 01:00:47,550
Now take a look
at the learning packets

1247
01:00:47,550 --> 01:00:48,717
in front of you, if you would.

1248
01:00:48,717 --> 01:00:51,449
And there you will find
that each of your clinics

1249
01:00:51,449 --> 01:00:52,782
are being assigned
growth targets

1250
01:00:52,782 --> 01:00:56,848
to double last year's totals
on elective terminations.

1251
01:00:56,848 --> 01:00:58,983
- Has she lost her mind?
- Because our margin is better

1252
01:00:58,983 --> 01:01:00,682
on chemicals than surgicals,
with no doctors

1253
01:01:00,682 --> 01:01:04,615
cutting into our fees,
we are going to...

1254
01:01:04,615 --> 01:01:06,013
Abby?

1255
01:01:09,150 --> 01:01:10,648
Well, it's just that

1256
01:01:10,648 --> 01:01:13,915
abortion has never been
my main priority.

1257
01:01:13,915 --> 01:01:16,614
Just look at our mission
statement on page three.

1258
01:01:16,614 --> 01:01:18,615
"To provide
a comprehensive range

1259
01:01:18,615 --> 01:01:21,581
"of reproductive health care
and sexual health information

1260
01:01:21,581 --> 01:01:25,547
through patient services,
education and advocacy."

1261
01:01:25,547 --> 01:01:27,581
That's what
I'm committed to doing.

1262
01:01:27,581 --> 01:01:29,579
So, if our stated goal is

1263
01:01:29,579 --> 01:01:31,247
to decrease the number
of abortions

1264
01:01:31,247 --> 01:01:34,114
by reducing the number
of unwanted pregnancies,

1265
01:01:34,114 --> 01:01:37,203
then why are we being asked
to double our abortion count?

1266
01:01:41,213 --> 01:01:44,112
Why don't we turn to page four.

1267
01:01:44,112 --> 01:01:45,408
Thank you.

1268
01:01:47,180 --> 01:01:48,703
(clears throat softly)

1269
01:01:52,079 --> 01:01:53,978
CHERYL:
Abby.

1270
01:01:57,712 --> 01:02:00,845
Frankly, I am shocked at the
way you sabotaged me in there.

1271
01:02:00,845 --> 01:02:04,478
Is this how you thank me for
all that I have done for you?

1272
01:02:04,478 --> 01:02:05,678
- Cheryl, I wasn't trying...
- No, Abby,

1273
01:02:05,678 --> 01:02:06,845
let me explain
something to you.

1274
01:02:06,845 --> 01:02:08,479
Fast food outlets

1275
01:02:08,479 --> 01:02:11,044
look to break even
on the hamburgers they sell.

1276
01:02:11,044 --> 01:02:13,478
That's all they do
is break even.

1277
01:02:13,478 --> 01:02:15,776
Do you know
how they make their money?

1278
01:02:15,776 --> 01:02:17,977
- No. - On the french fries
and the soda,

1279
01:02:17,977 --> 01:02:20,011
the low-cost high-margin items.

1280
01:02:20,011 --> 01:02:21,876
Cheryl, I'm sorry,
but I don't understand...

1281
01:02:21,876 --> 01:02:26,644
Abortion is our fries and soda,
but somehow you've just decided

1282
01:02:26,644 --> 01:02:28,509
that it's no longer
your priority.

1283
01:02:28,509 --> 01:02:33,210
Abortion is
what pays your salary.

1284
01:02:33,210 --> 01:02:35,675
It pays for
your matching 401 (k),

1285
01:02:35,675 --> 01:02:38,510
your four weeks vacation,
your ample sick time.

1286
01:02:38,510 --> 01:02:42,475
Abortion... abortion is
what pays for all of it,

1287
01:02:42,475 --> 01:02:45,208
for you and your family.

1288
01:02:45,208 --> 01:02:49,641
Now, I didn't say anything when
you decided to get married,

1289
01:02:49,641 --> 01:02:53,675
and I said very little when
you chose to become a mother,

1290
01:02:53,675 --> 01:02:55,608
although I knew
it would impact your work.

1291
01:02:55,608 --> 01:02:58,008
But as clinic director,
we are paying you

1292
01:02:58,008 --> 01:03:01,006
to be a perfect instrument
of corporate policy.

1293
01:03:01,006 --> 01:03:03,840
And corporate policy is simple.

1294
01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:07,506
We are an abortion provider.

1295
01:03:07,506 --> 01:03:10,073
But we're
a nonprofit organization.

1296
01:03:10,073 --> 01:03:13,734
Nonprofit is a tax status,
not a business model.

1297
01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:19,540
ABBY:
Can you believe that she

1298
01:03:19,540 --> 01:03:21,038
humiliated me like that?

1299
01:03:21,038 --> 01:03:23,939
I mean, I'm just
standing there with my award,

1300
01:03:23,939 --> 01:03:25,607
looking like an idiot.

1301
01:03:25,607 --> 01:03:29,672
And how am I supposed to double
the number of abortions?

1302
01:03:29,672 --> 01:03:31,672
Am I supposed to go driving
around the neighborhood,

1303
01:03:31,672 --> 01:03:33,073
telling everybody
to get pregnant?

1304
01:03:33,073 --> 01:03:35,805
I don't think that would work.

1305
01:03:35,805 --> 01:03:37,105
You're so funny.

1306
01:03:37,105 --> 01:03:38,472
- Do you want a glass?
- Yes, please.

1307
01:03:38,472 --> 01:03:39,472
You're gonna need one,

1308
01:03:39,472 --> 01:03:40,670
because you know
what really pisses me off?

1309
01:03:40,670 --> 01:03:42,671
What really pisses me off
is that they are

1310
01:03:42,671 --> 01:03:46,072
building the largest and most
advanced clinic in the country

1311
01:03:46,072 --> 01:03:49,171
so that we can perform
abortions up to 24 weeks.

1312
01:03:49,171 --> 01:03:52,538
That is a line
I said I would never cross.

1313
01:03:52,538 --> 01:03:57,037
Okay, pretend for a second
that you're someone like me

1314
01:03:57,037 --> 01:03:59,104
who believes
all abortions are bad.

1315
01:03:59,104 --> 01:04:01,103
What's the difference?

1316
01:04:01,103 --> 01:04:04,137
Okay. First of all,

1317
01:04:04,137 --> 01:04:06,104
if we do them really late,
third trimester,

1318
01:04:06,104 --> 01:04:07,669
it becomes a three-day ordeal.

1319
01:04:07,669 --> 01:04:09,169
It's no longer
a surgical procedure.

1320
01:04:09,169 --> 01:04:10,636
It's labor and delivery.

1321
01:04:10,636 --> 01:04:12,604
On the first day,
they introduce a demise.

1322
01:04:12,604 --> 01:04:14,835
- Wait. A demise?
- Euthanize the fetus.

1323
01:04:14,835 --> 01:04:17,202
They stop the heart
by injecting digoxin

1324
01:04:17,202 --> 01:04:19,701
through the uterine wall
directly into the baby's heart.

1325
01:04:19,701 --> 01:04:21,001
Day two,
they induce contractions.

1326
01:04:21,001 --> 01:04:23,102
Day three, it's the delivery,

1327
01:04:23,102 --> 01:04:24,603
an artificially induced
childbirth

1328
01:04:24,603 --> 01:04:26,601
of a terminated fetus.

1329
01:04:26,601 --> 01:04:29,001
Abby...

1330
01:04:29,001 --> 01:04:30,668
you're killing me.

1331
01:04:30,668 --> 01:04:33,167
Doug, you were the one
who asked the question.

1332
01:04:33,167 --> 01:04:34,434
Yeah, I know, I know, but...

1333
01:04:34,434 --> 01:04:35,534
Well, who am I supposed
to talk to about this?

1334
01:04:35,534 --> 01:04:36,701
I don't know.

1335
01:04:36,701 --> 01:04:37,934
All right? I don't know.

1336
01:04:37,934 --> 01:04:40,000
All I know is that here we are,
eight years later,

1337
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:42,567
and you're still thinking
that you can change them

1338
01:04:42,567 --> 01:04:45,235
when the only thing
that's changed is you, Abby.

1339
01:04:45,235 --> 01:04:46,466
Can you even hear yourself

1340
01:04:46,466 --> 01:04:47,766
talk right now
about these procedures?

1341
01:04:47,766 --> 01:04:50,701
These are little babies,
with a little brain

1342
01:04:50,701 --> 01:04:52,866
- and little hearts, little
fingers, little toes. - Doug.

1343
01:04:52,866 --> 01:04:56,466
- Doug...
- I just love you so much,

1344
01:04:56,466 --> 01:04:58,433
I can hardly bear to watch it.

1345
01:05:01,832 --> 01:05:03,696
(sighs)

1346
01:05:10,565 --> 01:05:12,826
(quiet knocking on glass)

1347
01:05:18,864 --> 01:05:20,631
Hey, you.

1348
01:05:20,631 --> 01:05:22,431
You need a break.

1349
01:05:22,431 --> 01:05:24,830
We... we need a break.

1350
01:05:25,897 --> 01:05:28,131
I would love to,
but I have a lot of work to do.

1351
01:05:28,131 --> 01:05:30,098
You only get
one day off a week,

1352
01:05:30,098 --> 01:05:31,996
and I'm not gonna
let you sit here slaving

1353
01:05:31,996 --> 01:05:34,030
for Planned Parenthood.

1354
01:05:34,030 --> 01:05:35,730
So, grab your things.

1355
01:05:35,730 --> 01:05:37,431
We're heading for
the most thoroughly awesome

1356
01:05:37,431 --> 01:05:39,029
Mexican food on the planet.

1357
01:05:39,029 --> 01:05:40,796
And if you play
your cards right...

1358
01:05:40,796 --> 01:05:43,530
I might get lucky?

1359
01:05:43,530 --> 01:05:46,062
Actually, I was thinking
I might throw in nachos,

1360
01:05:46,062 --> 01:05:47,496
but, hey, I'm okay
with your suggestion.

1361
01:05:47,496 --> 01:05:50,430
- I bet you are.
I'll be right back. - (chuckles)

1362
01:05:50,430 --> 01:05:53,462
(mariachi music playing,
quiet chatter)

1363
01:05:53,462 --> 01:05:55,229
One pumpkin ale for you

1364
01:05:55,229 --> 01:05:56,996
- and a margarita for you.
- Thank you.

1365
01:05:56,996 --> 01:05:59,586
Guys, I'll be back in a second
to take your order.

1366
01:06:01,995 --> 01:06:03,996
Ah. Here's your menu.

1367
01:06:03,996 --> 01:06:05,660
Pick you out something
real nice,

1368
01:06:05,660 --> 01:06:06,994
'cause I know
what I'm going with.

1369
01:06:06,994 --> 01:06:09,695
All right, so then
what are you having?

1370
01:06:09,695 --> 01:06:13,827
Only the biggest, wettest,
nastiest carnitas chimichanga

1371
01:06:13,827 --> 01:06:15,528
ever to come out
of that kitchen,

1372
01:06:15,528 --> 01:06:17,893
- if I have anything
to say about it. - (laughs)

1373
01:06:17,893 --> 01:06:20,060
So, how about you?

1374
01:06:20,060 --> 01:06:22,760
Mm, well, step aside, muchacho,

1375
01:06:22,760 --> 01:06:26,460
because I am having...
you ready for it?

1376
01:06:26,460 --> 01:06:31,092
The chocolate caramel
dulce de leche dessert nachos.

1377
01:06:31,092 --> 01:06:33,659
What? Toast to that.

1378
01:06:33,659 --> 01:06:35,427
(chuckles)

1379
01:06:35,427 --> 01:06:37,152
This is good.

1380
01:06:39,226 --> 01:06:41,993
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

1381
01:06:41,993 --> 01:06:44,492
Pace yourself, though.
We're just getting started.

1382
01:06:44,492 --> 01:06:46,625
- Oh, is that right? (chuckles)
- Mm-hmm.

1383
01:06:46,625 --> 01:06:49,226
Okay, so what is next?

1384
01:06:49,226 --> 01:06:52,425
I'm thinking a film festival
at our place.

1385
01:06:52,425 --> 01:06:54,525
- Heads, you get Gone with
the Wind. - (chuckles)

1386
01:06:54,525 --> 01:06:55,658
Tails, I get The Goonies.

1387
01:06:55,658 --> 01:06:57,157
No! I knew you were gonna say
The Goonies.

1388
01:06:57,157 --> 01:06:58,557
I am not watching those kids

1389
01:06:58,557 --> 01:06:59,858

- It's a cult classic.

1390
01:06:59,858 --> 01:07:01,492
(chuckles):
No.

1391
01:07:01,492 --> 01:07:03,223
- Give it a chance.
- No. Okay, all right.

1392
01:07:03,223 --> 01:07:05,690
We will compromise
and watch 300.

1393
01:07:06,757 --> 01:07:09,158
Is it any wonder why I love you?

1394
01:07:09,158 --> 01:07:11,122
- 300 it is.

How good is this?

1398
01:07:20,090 --> 01:07:22,424
REPORTER (over TV):
...Dr. George Tiller has died

1399
01:07:22,424 --> 01:07:25,589
after being gunned down
inside his own church.

1400
01:07:25,589 --> 01:07:28,156
One of the few such providers
in the country, Dr. Tiller was

1401
01:07:28,156 --> 01:07:31,155
shot in the head this morning
during worship services.

1402
01:07:31,155 --> 01:07:33,522
Police say they are
searching for a suspect

1403
01:07:33,522 --> 01:07:35,756
- to offer protection to other
appropriate people -Let's go.

1404
01:07:35,756 --> 01:07:38,855
And facilities
around the nation.

1405
01:07:38,855 --> 01:07:40,555
- Now. Come on.
- The 67-year-old Tiller

1406
01:07:40,555 --> 01:07:42,720
had offered abortions
for more than three decades,

1407
01:07:42,720 --> 01:07:46,855
performing by his own estimate
roughly 60,000 procedures.

1408
01:07:46,855 --> 01:07:48,922
Dr. Tiller was
the medical director

1409
01:07:48,922 --> 01:07:50,715
of Women's Health Services...

1410
01:07:55,819 --> 01:08:00,651
What kind of person would shoot
someone in the head in church?

1411
01:08:02,185 --> 01:08:04,653
Doug, I knew him.
He had a family.

1412
01:08:04,653 --> 01:08:05,954
I know, Ab.

1413
01:08:05,954 --> 01:08:08,087
Right now, all I care about
is picking up Grace

1414
01:08:08,087 --> 01:08:09,819
and getting the two of you
home safely.

1415
01:08:09,819 --> 01:08:11,886
You think I'm in danger?

1416
01:08:11,886 --> 01:08:15,373
I don't know, but I'm not
taking any chances.

1417
01:08:23,051 --> 01:08:24,751
Are you okay, sweetheart?

1418
01:08:24,751 --> 01:08:26,081
I'm fine, Mom.

1419
01:08:28,484 --> 01:08:30,718
- Ready?
- Yeah.

1420
01:08:30,718 --> 01:08:32,184
Wait, don't you think
it makes more sense

1421
01:08:32,184 --> 01:08:34,944
- for you to spend the
night here? - Come on.

1422
01:08:44,784 --> 01:08:47,017
It's false sympathy.

1423
01:08:47,017 --> 01:08:48,549
That's what it is.

1424
01:08:48,549 --> 01:08:50,850
All these pro-lifers

1425
01:08:50,850 --> 01:08:52,817
condemning a killer's actions
like they care?

1426
01:08:52,817 --> 01:08:54,418
I think they're just trying
to avoid the blame.

1427

It doesn't matter, okay?

1428
01:08:55,483 --> 01:08:58,217

we keep everyone here...

that means you, me, all of us
and our clients... safe.

1430
01:09:03,483 --> 01:09:05,916
We need to pay
special attention to anything

1431
01:09:05,916 --> 01:09:07,573

Um, it's kind of short notice.

No, Abby, it's about you.

Okay. I'll be there

1442

Abby, we've called you here
to let you know

1443
01:09:52,113 --> 01:09:53,611
you're being
formally reprimanded.

1444
01:09:53,611 --> 01:09:55,979
What am I being
reprimanded for?

1445
01:09:55,979 --> 01:09:58,979
You've been challenging me
and my authority.

1446
01:09:58,979 --> 01:10:00,778
You've become combative,

1447
01:10:00,778 --> 01:10:03,779
disputing my directives,
arguing and pushing back.

1448
01:10:03,779 --> 01:10:04,979
I'm your supervisor.

1449
01:10:04,979 --> 01:10:07,910
Therefore, it's your job
to follow my instructions.

1450
01:10:07,910 --> 01:10:11,612
In my eight years
at Planned Parenthood,

1451
01:10:11,612 --> 01:10:16,478
I have never received
anything less than praise.

1452
01:10:16,478 --> 01:10:19,212
I've not had
a single black mark,

1453
01:10:19,212 --> 01:10:22,610
not a warning,
much less a reprimand.

1454
01:10:22,610 --> 01:10:25,811
You just honored me
as Employee of the Year.

1455
01:10:25,811 --> 01:10:28,037
No one has been
more committed than I have.

1456
01:10:29,543 --> 01:10:32,842
SUSAN: Nonetheless,
the reprimand stands.

1457
01:10:32,842 --> 01:10:34,409
I'll need you to sign
this acknowledgment

1458
01:10:34,409 --> 01:10:38,743

and you are aware of it.

1464
01:11:01,774 --> 01:11:03,900
Afraid so.

- Please?

some kind of monster.

You know, I got to admit,

1676
01:24:41,518 --> 01:24:43,485
sometimes, in the midst of
all the hours on the fence,

1677
01:24:43,485 --> 01:24:45,517
I was beginning to wonder
if we were doing any good.

1678
01:24:45,517 --> 01:24:47,518
Most of the time,
we just prayed and prayed,

1679
01:24:47,518 --> 01:24:48,951
and it didn't seem to matter.

1680
01:24:48,951 --> 01:24:52,083
- Trust me, it mattered.
- Why do you say that?

1681
01:24:52,083 --> 01:24:53,917
Shawn, I was
the clinic director,

1682
01:24:53,917 --> 01:24:57,849
and any time that you were out
there, my no-show rate climbed,

1683
01:24:57,849 --> 01:24:59,916

Seriously, it wasn't
just us, though.

1686
01:25:04,015 --> 01:25:06,582
Planned Parenthood's
own statistics show that,

1687
01:25:06,582 --> 01:25:08,583
if someone's praying
outside the clinic,

1688
01:25:08,583 --> 01:25:11,115
it can go as high as 75%.

1689
01:25:11,115 --> 01:25:13,816
- Are you serious?
- I'm serious.

1690
01:25:13,816 --> 01:25:15,549
It's like this
dirty little secret

1691
01:25:15,549 --> 01:25:17,148
they don't want anyone to know.

1692
01:25:17,148 --> 01:25:18,782
When women see you praying,

1693
01:25:18,782 --> 01:25:22,816
they just suddenly decide
not to show up.

1694
01:25:22,816 --> 01:25:25,814
They circle the parking lot
and never come in.

1695
01:25:25,814 --> 01:25:27,715
Meaning most of the lives
that you save,

1696
01:25:27,715 --> 01:25:30,305
you never even know about.

1697
01:25:32,414 --> 01:25:35,715

1699
01:25:37,047 --> 01:25:38,913

you should be doing yet.

I need to do.

1701
01:25:45,446 --> 01:25:47,414
Hi. My name is Abby Johnson.

of this clinic.

1703
01:25:49,412 --> 01:25:52,675
I quit because my conscience
wouldn't let me stay.

1704
01:25:54,746 --> 01:25:58,678
I just want to talk to you for
a minute, please just a minute.

01:26:08,646 --> 01:26:10,974
but I'm guessing you've already
seen the results of yours.

1709
01:26:12,645 --> 01:26:14,012
Two of them.

1710
01:26:14,012 --> 01:26:18,077
And you feel like your whole
world is caving in around you,

1711
01:26:18,077 --> 01:26:20,811
and you've never been
so scared and alone.

1712
01:26:20,811 --> 01:26:22,673
- (quietly): Yeah.
- Yeah.

1713
01:26:24,676 --> 01:26:26,477
Let me tell you
what's gonna happen

1714
01:26:26,477 --> 01:26:28,478
if you go in that door.

1715
01:26:28,478 --> 01:26:30,543
The first thing they're gonna
do is give you an ultrasound,

1716
01:26:30,543 --> 01:26:32,110
but they're not gonna
let you see it.

1717
01:26:32,110 --> 01:26:33,677
Why not?

1718
01:26:33,677 --> 01:26:36,809
Because they don't want you
to see your baby.

1719
01:26:36,809 --> 01:26:39,343
Then why do they do
the ultrasound?

1720
01:26:39,343 --> 01:26:41,344
Because the ultrasound
determines

1721
01:26:41,344 --> 01:26:42,876
the size of the fetus.

1722
01:26:42,876 --> 01:26:45,143
And the size of the fetus,
the skull in particular,

1723
01:26:45,143 --> 01:26:48,741
is what determines the price
they're going to charge you.

1724
01:26:48,741 --> 01:26:51,942
(crying softly)

1725
01:26:51,942 --> 01:26:55,007
Why are you telling me this?

1726
01:26:55,007 --> 01:26:58,409
Because I understand
better than anyone

1727
01:26:58,409 --> 01:27:00,909
that, inside that building,
they don't offer solutions.

1728
01:27:00,909 --> 01:27:02,141
They only offer abortions.

1729
01:27:02,141 --> 01:27:03,741
And if you go
through that door,

1730
01:27:03,741 --> 01:27:07,509
you will not come out the
same person, because you can't.

1731
01:27:07,509 --> 01:27:10,507
And everybody wants to pretend
like you can, but you can't.

1732
01:27:10,507 --> 01:27:13,741
Because the truth is you can
let them get rid of your baby,

1733
01:27:13,741 --> 01:27:16,740
but they can't get rid of
the memory of your baby.

1734
01:27:16,740 --> 01:27:21,706
And neither can you,
no matter how hard you try.

1735
01:27:21,706 --> 01:27:23,539
(crying softly)

1736
01:27:23,539 --> 01:27:25,369
I don't know what to do.

1737
01:27:27,438 --> 01:27:29,572
What's your name?

1738
01:27:29,572 --> 01:27:31,706
Hannah.

1739
01:27:31,706 --> 01:27:33,707
Hannah, it's gonna be okay,
I promise, I promise.

1740
01:27:33,707 --> 01:27:35,605
And I'll be there
every step of the way.

1741
01:27:35,605 --> 01:27:37,071
I'll do anything I can
to help you.

1742
01:27:39,806 --> 01:27:41,904
If you get in that car...

1743
01:27:41,904 --> 01:27:43,871

1744
01:27:56,404 --> 01:27:57,937

♪ ♪

1746

1747
01:28:14,602 --> 01:28:16,970
CHERYL:
Bravo. Let me guess.

1748
01:28:16,970 --> 01:28:18,770
Former clinic director

1749
01:28:18,770 --> 01:28:20,635
describes the mechanics
of fetal dismemberment...

1750
01:28:20,635 --> 01:28:21,969
You know what, Cheryl, that...

1751
01:28:21,969 --> 01:28:23,569
...complete with
all the tools involved.

1752
01:28:23,569 --> 01:28:24,970
That's not what it was like.

1753
01:28:24,970 --> 01:28:26,801
You know what?
It doesn't really matter.

1754
01:28:26,801 --> 01:28:29,368
You've become a traitor, Abby.

1755
01:28:29,368 --> 01:28:31,569
Some of us are
still loyal to the cause.

1756
01:28:31,569 --> 01:28:33,367
Some of us still believe
in protecting

1757
01:28:33,367 --> 01:28:34,734
a woman's right to choose.

1758
01:28:34,734 --> 01:28:36,402
And those of us who do,

1759
01:28:36,402 --> 01:28:39,566
we are a part of
a billion-dollar corporation

1760
01:28:39,566 --> 01:28:42,901
with lawyers and lobbyists
and media experts on staff.

1761
01:28:42,901 --> 01:28:46,366
Have you ever seen
the names of our donors?

1762
01:28:46,366 --> 01:28:48,733
Soros, Gates, Buffett.

1763
01:28:48,733 --> 01:28:51,359
That's who we have.
Who have you got, Abby?

1764
01:28:52,932 --> 01:28:57,467
Cheryl, what you are doing
is wrong.

1765
01:28:57,467 --> 01:28:59,732
Is it?

1766
01:28:59,732 --> 01:29:01,832
America wants abortion,

1767
01:29:01,832 --> 01:29:05,000
which is why we exist and why
we will continue to exist

1768
01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:07,632
long after you and
your newfound friends are gone.

1769
01:29:07,632 --> 01:29:09,632
Oh, yes, I know all about them.

1770
01:29:09,632 --> 01:29:13,498
Did you honestly think
that we wouldn't find out?

1771
01:29:13,498 --> 01:29:16,832
No one has ever turned on us
like this before, Abby.

1772
01:29:16,832 --> 01:29:19,092
Which is why national is going
to make an example of you.

1773
01:29:20,131 --> 01:29:21,998
So, congratulations.

1774
01:29:21,998 --> 01:29:23,799
You've managed to make an enemy

1775
01:29:23,799 --> 01:29:27,389
of one of the most powerful
organizations on the planet.

1776
01:29:31,665 --> 01:29:34,797
(crickets chirping)

1777
01:29:34,797 --> 01:29:37,698
- (Abby chuckles)
- DOUG: I love this patch.

1778
01:29:37,698 --> 01:29:39,463
ABBY:
Mm.

1779
01:29:39,463 --> 01:29:41,630
Turn this way, baby.

1780
01:29:41,630 --> 01:29:43,797
Do you remember
what I was telling you earlier

1781
01:29:43,797 --> 01:29:45,429
about what Cheryl said?

1782
01:29:45,429 --> 01:29:47,430
It'd be kind of hard to forget.

1783
01:29:47,430 --> 01:29:50,463
Yeah, well, now Megan isn't
returning my phone calls,

1784
01:29:50,463 --> 01:29:52,462
and her phone number
has been disconnected.

1785
01:29:52,462 --> 01:29:54,329
Uh-oh.

1786
01:29:54,329 --> 01:29:56,530
Can we go now, please?

1787
01:29:56,530 --> 01:29:58,461
Does Mommy look like
she's ready?

1788
01:29:58,461 --> 01:30:00,329
- No.
- No.

1789
01:30:00,329 --> 01:30:03,362
And you need to go get
your ladybug wand upstairs.

1790
01:30:03,362 --> 01:30:05,327
(Abby laughs)

1791
01:30:06,828 --> 01:30:08,828
(footsteps walking up stairs)

1792
01:30:08,828 --> 01:30:11,827
- You still up for this?
- Absolutely.

1793
01:30:11,827 --> 01:30:14,528
I am not letting Cheryl
or Planned Parenthood

1794
01:30:14,528 --> 01:30:16,762
ruin Halloween for our kid.

1795
01:30:16,762 --> 01:30:19,594
Or you.

1796
01:30:19,594 --> 01:30:21,094
- I'm serious, babe.
- (spooky sound effects playing)

1797
01:30:21,094 --> 01:30:22,862
Whoever created this holiday
deserves a medal.

1798
01:30:22,862 --> 01:30:25,526
We get to dress up, act stupid,
and people give us candy.

1799
01:30:25,526 --> 01:30:26,727
How cool is that?

1800
01:30:26,727 --> 01:30:27,994
(Southern accent):
You do realize

1801
01:30:27,994 --> 01:30:29,761
they give Grace
the candy, though?

1802
01:30:29,761 --> 01:30:31,126
- (laughs)
- Yes, but she knows

1803
01:30:31,126 --> 01:30:32,593
Daddy's involvement is crucial.

1804
01:30:32,593 --> 01:30:33,826
She's still new to this,

1805
01:30:33,826 --> 01:30:36,594
whereas I bring decades
of experience.

1806
01:30:36,594 --> 01:30:37,759
(imitates pirate):
Arr, milady.

1807
01:30:37,759 --> 01:30:38,892
(normal voice):
Okay.

1808
01:30:38,892 --> 01:30:40,092
- All right.
- Daddy, let's go!

1809
01:30:40,092 --> 01:30:41,826
Can you take this one
so I can call Shawn?

1810
01:30:41,826 --> 01:30:42,960
- Sure.
- Okay.

1811
01:30:42,960 --> 01:30:44,492
Hold up, hold up!

1812
01:30:44,492 --> 01:30:46,825
(pop music playing)

1813
01:30:46,825 --> 01:30:48,993
(line ringing)

1814
01:30:48,993 --> 01:30:51,724
- SHAWN: Abby? - Did you get my
messages about Cheryl's threat?

1815
01:30:51,724 --> 01:30:54,026
Yeah. We're being sued.
We're both gonna need lawyers.

1816
01:30:54,026 --> 01:30:57,758
Sued? Do you realize
how serious this is?

1817
01:30:57,758 --> 01:31:00,558
Yeah. And I just realized
you're 100 feet away from me.

1818
01:31:00,558 --> 01:31:01,524
Abby!

1819
01:31:03,723 --> 01:31:06,624
- Hon, why don't you go ahead
while I talk to Abby. - Okay.

1820
01:31:06,624 --> 01:31:07,624
(whispers):
Bye, pumpkin.

1821
01:31:07,624 --> 01:31:09,091
Are you sure about this?

1822
01:31:09,091 --> 01:31:12,656
Yes. We got served
right before I left work.

1823
01:31:12,656 --> 01:31:14,457
There's a lawsuit from
Planned Parenthood,

1824
01:31:14,457 --> 01:31:15,457
plus a restraining order

1825
01:31:15,457 --> 01:31:16,956
to keep us from saying
anything public.

1826
01:31:16,956 --> 01:31:18,690
Yours will probably arrive
on Monday.

1827
01:31:18,690 --> 01:31:20,357
When were you planning on
telling me about this?

1828
01:31:20,357 --> 01:31:22,357
Figured I'd let you enjoy
trick-or-treating

1829
01:31:22,357 --> 01:31:23,956
and then give you a call.

1830
01:31:23,956 --> 01:31:25,623
(scoffs)

1831
01:31:25,623 --> 01:31:27,056
What are we gonna do?

1832
01:31:27,056 --> 01:31:29,057
I've already talked with
Jeff Paradowski.

1833
01:31:29,057 --> 01:31:31,322
I believe his response was,
"I'm in, baby!"

1834
01:31:31,322 --> 01:31:32,322
Wait, wait, wait.

1835
01:31:32,322 --> 01:31:33,622
The one that's
on the billboards,

1836
01:31:33,622 --> 01:31:34,823
pointing his finger, saying...

1837
01:31:34,823 --> 01:31:36,321
"Get what you deserve!"

1838
01:31:36,321 --> 01:31:39,455
Yeah. He's an old friend.

1839
01:31:39,455 --> 01:31:42,757
Okay, um, you realize
that attorneys cost money

1840
01:31:42,757 --> 01:31:46,022
- and I just left my job? - Jeff
isn't in this for the money.

1841
01:31:46,022 --> 01:31:47,522
He's in this
to help fight abortion.

1842
01:31:47,522 --> 01:31:49,520
He's willing to
cut into his Saturday

1843
01:31:49,520 --> 01:31:51,544
and meet with us
tomorrow morning.

1844
01:31:52,654 --> 01:31:55,455
Abby, meet Jeff.

1845
01:31:55,455 --> 01:31:57,385
Jeff, meet Abby.

1846
01:32:06,553 --> 01:32:08,985
So, they're claiming
that Planned Parenthood

1847
01:32:08,985 --> 01:32:12,020
and its patients face
imminent, irreparable harm

1848
01:32:12,020 --> 01:32:14,021
from confidential information

1849
01:32:14,021 --> 01:32:16,719
you've improperly disclosed
or are about to disclose.

1850
01:32:16,719 --> 01:32:18,686
That's nonsense.

1851
01:32:18,686 --> 01:32:20,786
Well, they managed
to convince a judge otherwise.

1852
01:32:20,786 --> 01:32:24,085
Our preliminary hearing
is in ten days.

1853
01:32:24,085 --> 01:32:28,453
The attorneys for the plaintiff
are a big firm out of Houston.

1854
01:32:28,453 --> 01:32:32,985
But I'm betting we'll see
some faces from D.C. As well.

1855
01:32:32,985 --> 01:32:36,484
You're a big fish, and
the sharks are smelling blood.

1856
01:32:36,484 --> 01:32:39,585
Oh, also, you should
prepare yourself

1857
01:32:39,585 --> 01:32:41,750
that, uh, Megan and Taylor

1858
01:32:41,750 --> 01:32:43,751
will be testifying
to a completely different

1859
01:32:43,751 --> 01:32:45,951
set of facts than the ones
you've described to me.

1860
01:32:45,951 --> 01:32:49,609
- They were my friends.
- Emphasis on "were."

1861
01:32:53,318 --> 01:32:56,583
Okay, Abby, I'm going to
ask you a series of questions.

1862
01:32:56,583 --> 01:32:59,517
Um, I want you to take
all the time you need

1863
01:32:59,517 --> 01:33:02,749
to answer honestly and
think about them all you want.

1864
01:33:02,749 --> 01:33:04,449
- Okay.
- Okay.

1865
01:33:04,449 --> 01:33:06,616
Have you ever revealed
the identities of the doctors

1866
01:33:06,616 --> 01:33:08,715
performing abortions
at the facility

1867
01:33:08,715 --> 01:33:10,416
either to Shawn or anyone else?

1868
01:33:10,416 --> 01:33:11,915
- No.
- No.

1869
01:33:11,915 --> 01:33:13,883
You ever removed confidential
patient information

1870
01:33:13,883 --> 01:33:16,949
from the building, either
physically or in digital form?

1871
01:33:16,949 --> 01:33:19,583
No.

1872
01:33:19,583 --> 01:33:22,547
Have you ever taken or removed
anything from the building?

1873
01:33:22,547 --> 01:33:25,048
Just an old vacuum cleaner.

1874
01:33:25,048 --> 01:33:27,049
Uh, but the one
at the clinic broke,

1875
01:33:27,049 --> 01:33:28,947
and we had a tight budget
for equipment,

1876
01:33:28,947 --> 01:33:30,881
so I brought mine from home.

1877
01:33:30,881 --> 01:33:33,782
But when I quit,
I wasn't gonna leave it there.

1878
01:33:33,782 --> 01:33:37,114
That and a plant,
but my mom gave me the plant.

1879
01:33:37,114 --> 01:33:38,848
Okay. (laughs)

1880
01:33:38,848 --> 01:33:42,113
Uh, did you threaten
Megan or Taylor

1881
01:33:42,113 --> 01:33:44,913
if they didn't look to resign
from Planned Parenthood?

1882
01:33:44,913 --> 01:33:47,469
No. How could I? I wasn't even
their boss anymore.

1883
01:33:48,712 --> 01:33:50,513
Which brings me to my last

1884
01:33:50,513 --> 01:33:53,314
and most important question
for you.

1885
01:33:53,314 --> 01:33:55,479
What aren't you telling me?

1886
01:33:55,479 --> 01:33:58,113
- Nothing.
- You sure?

1887
01:33:58,113 --> 01:34:00,711
Because if there's something
that you're hiding,

1888
01:34:00,711 --> 01:34:03,078
I can guarantee
it will come out in court.

1889
01:34:03,078 --> 01:34:06,780
So, if there's anything
that I need to know,

1890
01:34:06,780 --> 01:34:09,478
now is the time to tell me
while we still have the time

1891
01:34:09,478 --> 01:34:10,967
to figure out
how to deal with it.

1892
01:34:15,644 --> 01:34:19,679
(sighs) A while back,
curiosity got the best of me,

1893
01:34:19,679 --> 01:34:21,877
and I pulled
my own patient file.

1894
01:34:21,877 --> 01:34:24,344
I couldn't resist.

1895
01:34:24,344 --> 01:34:25,878
How come?

1896
01:34:25,878 --> 01:34:28,502
I needed to see my baby.

1897
01:34:29,744 --> 01:34:31,644
Is that a problem?

1898
01:34:31,644 --> 01:34:33,476
Sure.

1899
01:34:33,476 --> 01:34:35,876
For Planned Parenthood if they
try to make an issue out of it.

1900
01:34:35,876 --> 01:34:37,744
I mean, trying to paint her
like a criminal

1901
01:34:37,744 --> 01:34:39,641
for wanting to see
her own file?

1902
01:34:39,641 --> 01:34:40,942
We can only hope
they're stupid enough

1903
01:34:40,942 --> 01:34:42,576
to try something like that.

1904
01:34:42,576 --> 01:34:44,377
So, what's our defense?

1905
01:34:44,377 --> 01:34:46,308

- Yep.

We are so screwed.

1908
01:34:51,442 --> 01:34:53,742
Abby, don't complicate
the issue.

complaint's emphasis

Let me make it easy for you.
They've got no case.

You don't know these people

1914
01:35:06,040 --> 01:35:08,108
Planned Parenthood
will go to any lengths

1915
01:35:08,108 --> 01:35:10,742
to destroy someone
that they see as a threat.

1916
01:35:10,742 --> 01:35:13,740
Abby, there are two words
in the English language

1917
01:35:13,740 --> 01:35:16,474
that are very powerful if you
put them together in court.

1918

First they sue us even though

Next they gag us

a press conference

whatever they want,
