to their childrenat vista point high. - we don't know if our son passed the test orfailed or anything. this day is hardenough for all of us and we deserve answers. this community hasbeen through enough. - no parents ofstudents at vista point have been notified as of yet. we'll keep you updatedas this bizarre story.
- get king on theemergency line. (intense tones) - key card and i.d. (metallic crashing)(yelping) (deep breathing) (dramatic, pulsating music) - i'm about to have a thousandroyally pissed off parents talking to news vans in frontof a school with no power. i need you to explain to me

- where is she? - who? (punching) i don't know whoyou're talking about. (thudding and panting) i'm broke. - this is the last timethat i'll ask nicely. where's laina? - oh my god, laina.
(laughs) (encouraging instrumental music) (intense, pulsating music) - all the informationwe have as of now is this morning,approximately 11:45am, laina michaels, a studentat vista point high, failed an exam. she then proceeded toattack several dpc officers, injuring two and tragicallykilling two others.
since then, thestudents have been moved to a safe place andare being protected under the watchfuleye of our teachers until miss michaelscan be apprehended. - corinne, do youneed a ride home? - [governor] i would liketo speak to you as a father. - i understand your pain. my son is in thatschool as well. and i will doeverything in my power
to bring him andeveryone else home safe. blake, if you're watching, i love you son. this is a tryingtime for all of us. i ask for your patienceand understanding as we move toresolve this matter and bring missmichaels to justice. - wendy, you need to see this. - this was taken frominside the high school.
- yeah, that'sdefinitely a dpc guard hitting a passing student. - this doesn't add up. who's the source on this? this footage was sent tous by a student source inside vista point high. - kellan? - hello. all units convergeto the server room.
we have her. (intense, percussion music) - [blake] attention. i was just told tomove these students to the recreationhall immediately. - [officer] i didn't hear that. the students are staying untilmason king says otherwise. - [blake] i was justtold to take everyone to the recreation hallwithout any hold ups.
so, let's get moving. undo the restraints. (relieved whimpering) - [officer] no, wedo don't do anything without direct confirmationfrom mason king. identify yourself now. - of course. i'm sorry, let me showyou the confirmation. - [voiceover] he's not a guard!
(thudding and grunting) - i have proof. i passed that test. - congratulations. take her to the thinning. - holy shit. - [voiceover]good, get him down. get his mask. (yelping)
- i don't care where youpull the graphics from, we're going live now. - [voiceover] wendy,this hasn't been approved by the network. - karl, it's calledbreaking news for a reason. we're going with this, now. three, two. (suspenseful percussion music) - no, no, not laina.
- less than an hour ago, governor reddingannounced a situation inside vista point high involving a dangerous failedstudent, laina michaels, said to be wreakinghavoc on campus leaving behind hera trail of terror. just moments ago, we receivedofficial documentation from inside the high school revealing falsified test scores,

- i thought yousaid that you had the situation under control. - well, thesituation's changing. - yes it has. i'm starting to think ibacked the wrong horse. congressman sandovaldoesn't come with these kinds of problems. - georgina. - don't georgina me.
fix it or you won'thave enough money to run for city comptroller. - [voiceover] this explosivedevelopment calls everything said today by the governor'soffice into question and reveals a largerscandal at play. - this is bad. this is bad. you got to shut it down. dean, it's over, yougot to let the girl go.
you need to shutthis down, right now. goddammit, dean, areyou listening to me? it's over. there's no more moves. - there's one more move. - no, please. no, no! (intense music) - sir, everything is in order.
as always, i need the wordfrom you to make it official. are we approved tocommence the thinning? sir, are we approved tocommence the thinning? there's been a change. we need to revise the list. - sir? - [governor] that's an order. (electronic release) - all released students

he will dearly pay forhis unlawful actions. - earlier reports indicatinga scandal involving governor reddingfalsifying test information were discredited when thepresidential hopeful revealed his son blake was among thisyear's failing students. - my son, as much as i love him, is no different than anyof your sons or daughters. i'm not a hypocrite. the laws apply to all of us.
it just doesn'tmake it any easier. i lost my son today. but i know in my heartthat he died for a purpose. all of our fallen students havemade the ultimate sacrifice in the name of ensuringa better tomorrow and in keepingamerica's future bright. i'd like to take a moment andthank them for their courage. - [voiceover] hold it. okay, they're all clear.

- the press arelike sharks, ted. they smell blood,they'll come swimming. we just need to givethem some fresh meat. - [voiceover] we foundhim beat up pretty bad. - you got beat up by a girl. - no, sir, well, yes sir. it was two of them. - two girls? - no, it was a male student.
they got the jump on me. the other saidshe was a teacher. - what was the teacher's name? - this is ridiculous. - yes, this whole thing is. - i don't know about you, but i could use adrink after this. - me too. you want to joinme for one later?

- miss birch, right? let's continuewhere we left off. key card and i.d. very well. - i must have dropped it. - no, i don't think so. - excuse me, this is a mistake. - everybody out. - i had it two seconds ago.
- where is she? - who? (punching) i don't know whoyou're talking about. (thudding and panting) i'm broke. - this is the last timethat i'll ask nicely. where's laina? - oh my god, laina.
(laughs) (encouraging instrumental music) (intense, pulsating music) - all the informationwe have as of now is this morning,approximately 11:45am, laina michaels, a studentat vista point high, failed an exam. she then proceeded toattack several dpc officers, injuring two and tragicallykilling two others.
since then, thestudents have been moved to a safe place andare being protected under the watchfuleye of our teachers until miss michaelscan be apprehended. - corinne, do youneed a ride home? - [governor] i would liketo speak to you as a father. - i understand your pain. my son is in thatschool as well. and i will doeverything in my power
to bring him andeveryone else home safe. blake, if you're watching, i love you son. this is a tryingtime for all of us. i ask for your patienceand understanding as we move toresolve this matter and bring missmichaels to justice. - wendy, you need to see this. - this was taken frominside the high school.
- yeah, that'sdefinitely a dpc guard hitting a passing student. - this doesn't add up. who's the source on this? this footage was sent tous by a student source inside vista point high. - kellan? - hello. all units convergeto the server room.
we have her. (intense, percussion music) - [blake] attention. i was just told tomove these students to the recreationhall immediately. - [officer] i didn't hear that. the students are staying untilmason king says otherwise. - [blake] i was justtold to take everyone to the recreation hallwithout any hold ups.
so, let's get moving. undo the restraints. (relieved whimpering) - [officer] no, wedo don't do anything without direct confirmationfrom mason king. identify yourself now. - of course. i'm sorry, let me showyou the confirmation. - [voiceover] he's not a guard!
(thudding and grunting) - i have proof. i passed that test. - congratulations. take her to the thinning. - holy shit. - [voiceover]good, get him down. get his mask. (yelping)
- i don't care where youpull the graphics from, we're going live now. - [voiceover] wendy,this hasn't been approved by the network. - karl, it's calledbreaking news for a reason. we're going with this, now. three, two. (suspenseful percussion music) - no, no, not laina.
- less than an hour ago, governor reddingannounced a situation inside vista point high involving a dangerous failedstudent, laina michaels, said to be wreakinghavoc on campus leaving behind hera trail of terror. just moments ago, we receivedofficial documentation from inside the high school revealing falsified test scores,
possibly to favor ortarget specific students to evade or endure the thinning. among those wrongfullyaccused of failing the exam, laina michaels, receivedone of the highest scores in the school. blake redding, son ofgovernor dean redding passed the exam, despitehaving the lowest score at vista point high. (phone ringing)
- i thought yousaid that you had the situation under control. - well, thesituation's changing. - yes it has. i'm starting to think ibacked the wrong horse. congressman sandovaldoesn't come with these kinds of problems. - georgina. - don't georgina me.
fix it or you won'thave enough money to run for city comptroller. - [voiceover] this explosivedevelopment calls everything said today by the governor'soffice into question and reveals a largerscandal at play. - this is bad. this is bad. you got to shut it down. dean, it's over, yougot to let the girl go.
you need to shutthis down, right now. goddammit, dean, areyou listening to me? it's over. there's no more moves. - there's one more move. - no, please. no, no! (intense music) - sir, everything is in order.
as always, i need the wordfrom you to make it official. are we approved tocommence the thinning? sir, are we approved tocommence the thinning? there's been a change. we need to revise the list. - sir? - [governor] that's an order. (electronic release) - all released students
are free to proceed tothe recreation hall. congratulations, you've passed. round them up. - [laina] what's going on? - [officer] let's go. blake what's happening? - [laina] no, what's going on? - [blake] it's okay, i did this. - get her out of here.
- blake, no! - get her out of here! - [laina] put me down, no! - [voiceover] out of the way. wade freeman, time to go. - get off me, bro. bro, that's mythrowing arm, bro. do you know who i am? wade freeman, you bitch.
(drilling tones) (soft, somber music) - it's all over. the school-wide lockdown has been lifted and passing studentshave been reunited with their loved onesafter what has been a long, trying day,here in austin. as always, our heartsgo out to the families of the failing students
who scored in thelowest percentile. the head of the dpc, mason king, has been taken infor questioning in connection with thealtered test scores. - i am appalled by the allegedcriminal action of mr. king. as of tomorrow morning, i am appointing aspecial committee to fully investigate whatreally happened at vista point. if mr. king is guilty,
he will dearly pay forhis unlawful actions. - earlier reports indicatinga scandal involving governor reddingfalsifying test information were discredited when thepresidential hopeful revealed his son blake was among thisyear's failing students. - my son, as much as i love him, is no different than anyof your sons or daughters. i'm not a hypocrite. the laws apply to all of us.
it just doesn'tmake it any easier. i lost my son today. but i know in my heartthat he died for a purpose. all of our fallen students havemade the ultimate sacrifice in the name of ensuringa better tomorrow and in keepingamerica's future bright. i'd like to take a moment andthank them for their courage. - [voiceover] hold it. okay, they're all clear.
