| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Pretty Lies and Alibis. Let's seek the truth and travel the long road to justice together. |
| 0:08.0 | What you know, Alibiers. Welcome to another episode of Pretty Lies and Alibis. I'm Gigi. Good to have you here. It's Wednesday, April 15th. |
| 0:16.0 | Today was a really, really heavy day in that courtroom. |
| 0:21.6 | We're going to go over the results of the DNA testing. |
