Transcript

Host: 

This…is the event.

Diana:

“So I worked at this uh... hotel, in Manhattan. It was nice, feeling like that…people telling you that you're smart, 'cause those aren't conversations that we were having at home.”

Kandy:

“Finding a way to keep all that love you had…in that hole in your heart and finding something lovely about every day that you lived past then.”

Tim:

“And he said to me, he says, ‘Just try and make the corner of the world you live in a better place to be. That’s the best you can do.’  I've always remembered that.”

Diana:  

“Originally, I'm from Trinidad and Tobago. There's a superstition that happens in the Caribbean where if a snake comes into your house, somethin's bads gonna happen.

She cut the head off, I remember, and she threw it in a bush. And she was like, ‘nothing bad gonna happen.’ But…they did come that night.”  

Kandy:

“That owl that was visiting him, I just felt like somehow that owl was a messenger. Seems like there were so many little things that point in the direction…what was he not telling me?” 

Tim:

“'You gotta help me, gotta help me! Just send me a sign, any sign, just to get my life back on track. I can't do this alone.' He says, ‘You need my help, don't you?’ I just started crying. I says, ‘I need your help.’” 

Host:

In every person's life, there is at least one event that changes them forever, redirects their path and leaves a mark. These stories will give you a glimpse into the lives of people who have lived through that event, come out the other side, and all the messy, heartbreaking and beautiful things that happen along the way. 

Diana:

“People would fake documents. I knew my mom was desperate… 

You can't ask anybody for any help. They didn't really treat us well. We didn't have anything. 

I didn't realize how much he remembered…he was so small.”  

Kandy:

“I was just in this dark tunnel. And nothing, nothing, nothing...has been the same.  

Tim:

“But the daddy of it all was alcohol. Without alcohol, I wouldn't have done it. 

I cried thinking, how the hell?  I need to do something. I need to change my life. How the hell did I get out of that?  

And I'd go to bed, and I'd sit on the end of my bed having a glass of whiskey, and I, I'd say to myself, ‘I hope I don't wake up tomorrow.’" 

Host:

The event. A documentary podcast.

Diana:

“He would bring home his friends…and they would bring me gifts…  

But I remember just feeling so icky ‘cause, you know, they're staring at me… 

Kandy:

“‘Something or someone is out to kill me.’ What does that mean?”  

Tim:

“And I couldn't lift my head off my chest, but I could hear everything going around, I remember MTV being on. But then panic set in for them.”
