And she was on our couch...

You felt her pain in the room.

You felt her sadness and her regret.

It's a disgusting video.

It's a horrifying video.

This is a very serious thing.

This is not some reality TV drama that we all can have fun with because it's gotten a little heavy, but at the end of the day, all the people involved are going to be just fine and living their best lives.

Again, lives are being ruined right now.

Emily Longoretti, do you have any insight into why Secret Lives was greenlit and why they chose to make the main storyline, this very arrest, this domestic situation where children were involved, why were they so willing to lead with that and center... Secret Lives and Mormon Lives essentially started as...

a story about forgiveness.

Should this person be allowed a second chance?

And as humans, and we watch reality TV, we want to believe that second chances are a real thing.

We want to believe that we can make mistakes and obviously not something as horrific as this, but that that's the premise.

And we all became fans of her.

And I'm just curious from your perspective, Emily, I imagine you know what it's like when video doesn't exist and then it does.

And even though you can hear the same story,
