"This is the story of Emily Smith, (EN: No, that is not my real last name…ask Lissa) a girl we all have grown to know in the past few days. Here is her story, in her words and some of our own." Announced FBI agent King. She herself felt sorry for the girl even while assisting in the making of the video. And was not really prepared to share this story with Emily's parents and close friends.
"As, you may all already know, She loved the camera that makes it a lot easier to show this as a documentary. Just let me put the tape in and you will see first hand the experiences in which all those involved had and you may even recognize something from yourselves. If you like we, meaning my friends and I here at the FBI will release it to the press who already have twisted the story." Agent King finished. She quickly popped in the tape and after a short while the tape started…
(En: For those who are confused everything following this is the documentary at least until further notice.)
As the tape starts in walks a girl about 15, blonde hair, blue eyes, skinny. She sits on her bed that is facing the camera. Smiles into it and begins to talk.
"Well, this is my first entry into my video diary. I would just like to say Hi and introduce my imaginary friends, Dave, and Alfred the owl." She begins. Then a shot from a library comes in. It is an old man and across the screen comes the name Dr. Daniel Brown. He then begins to talk.
"Teenagers rarely have imaginary friends unless they aren't all there. In Emily's case we see it as a way of dealing with loneliness. Even though she is known for her Schizophrenic behavior, this was not the case here." He shares before the clip ends and the audience sees Emily again. We hear a cry from one of the member's of the audience. But in the video, Emily is dancing to the Larger Than Life song by her favorite band the Backstreet Boys. Then she precedes to inform the camera that she will marry one of them, Brian Thomas Littrell, to be exact. That clip ends with her smiling. Then we see Dr. Brown again. He talks about the awkwardness of teen years and how many teens, turn to "obsessions" with famous people. Then it goes back to Emily. She smiles sweetly at the camera before sharing what has brought her joy.
"I love Brian! I can't really explain but everything that I learn just makes me want him more. He is sweet, hot, and that accent!" She exclaims giggling. Once she gains control of herself she begins to confess more.
"I met him on the Internet today!" She exclaimed, " He said he still loves his fiancé but that I am really cool he even gave me tickets to the concert that is coming up. No Back stage passes yet but you know it still is cool." -CLIP Ends-/-new CLIP begins- This one is of her Mom.
"She went to a concert once and that was when I took her, I have no idea what led her to believe that she went to another one. Maybe she was lying to the camera to make herself look good or maybe she made herself believe that." Her Mom explained. Then it went to Emily who described the concert with a far off look in her eyes.
" Every Second I live, baby that's what I'll give, if that's what it takes…" is playing in the background. Next Clip was her best friend Melissa who had spent the concert day with her. She left early to go to the concert, "…but I wanted to see her, since I didn't believe her." Melissa explained, " I went to her house and looked through her window and she was still there in her BSB T-shirt staring intently at a group poster. I was scared so I didn't tell anybody until about 3 years later when it got worse…" We hear Melissa's voice fade into the background as we see an older Emily pouring her heart out about Brian and how he was her best friend now. Then there is a shot of Melissa again crying but through her tears she states that Em broke off the friendship for an illusion. We then see the next shot of her Mom.
"I guess she wanted it enough to make it happen." Her mom shares. At that point we see a shot of Emily getting ready for graduation. But that is not why she is so happy. She soon tells us why.
"I will be meeting Brian tonight. I am flying to meet him in Orlando." She shared. Then skipped off to go graduate. The next clip is from her graduation. We all of a sudden here this tune and see Emily crying in her hotel room.
"If only wishes could be dreams and all my dreams could come true then there would be two of us standing in front of you…" As the song ends she then tells us Brian stood her up. The song then changes "Say goodbye , not knowing when the true in my whole life began." She gets up wipes her tears and says, " I will get him, no matter what." You can tell by the look in her eyes she is right. That fades out and we see Dr. Sallie Kanofsky, Family Therapist. She starts to talk about the variety of factors that could have caused this sort of reaction to false hood. Basically states that this would be the most logical point in her life to realize the truth but I did not happen. Clip changes to one of Emily. She began to tell us of how she would surprise Brian tonight. Then comes a clip of Brian.
"This strange girl, that I now know to be Emily, ran up to me. I assumed her to another fan. Nothing that needed special care so I signed her shirt and took a picture with her thinking that is all she would want. But then she just went off at me for ignoring her, blowing her off, but she said that she forgave me and that she expected me not to disappoint her next time. By that time I was scared and left." Brian explained. Emily then pops up upon the screen to explain the evening in her words.
"He was distant but I think that is because of the fact that everyone could see us. I will visit him next time at home." She proclaimed. Shot fades and we see Brian again.
"I've had stalkers before but she was by far the most relentless and scary. I know it was all innocent but I felt violated over that year. I moved twice and changed my number once a week but she always found me and each time she wanted something from me. Hugs, presents, autographs, it was overwhelming and it got to the point if I bought something at the grocery store, she would. I knew that because she followed me around. It drove my bodyguards nuts so they finally talked to her." Brian shared.
Then we see her mom.
"She didn't contact me at all for a year because of her business with Brian." Mom said. Then we see Emily crying.
"I don't know why but his body guards threatened me and I was not supposed to go 50 feet near him again." She said while crying. Scene fades as it shows her being arrested and Brian seeing it all feeling bad.
"I swear I thought she was insane." We here Brian say as she is driven away.
Then we see Dr. Smith again.
"She was locked up for only a month but there the authorities saw that something wasn't right and something wasn't, she was very depressed. We believe not only because of her illusion but because she was having trouble believing it. And what else did she have besides that?" he said as we here a song playing and she says…
"I learn to let go of the illusion that we possess." We see her and she looks ill. We hear the doctor's voice again say, " They shouldn't have let her out." After that we see her lean down and softly kiss the Brian poster on her bed. She waves to the camera and says a few more things.
"I love my family and I love Melissa but most of all I love Brian and nothing will ever change that." She says. She looks horrible, skin is swollen in places, purple in more and she is extremely pale and skinny from fasting. The we here, "This used to be my playground" By: Madonna. As the last verse is sang, "Wishing you were here with me." We see Emily shoot herself once in thigh, once in the shoulder and once in the head until she dies and there is a clip of her funeral. Then we see Brian one last time.
"I know that it's not my fault but somehow I feel it is, If I would have maybe…" Brian started before the clip changed to her mom.
"There was nothing that Brian could do. But that doesn't stop me from missing her or blaming myself." The ending quote said by her mom. (End of documentary).
The lights are put back on and there isn't a dry eye in the house. Agent King is back in the front of the room.
"Is there any objections to making this public," she asks to the people in front of her.
"NO, lets just make sure this doesn't happen to anyone else." Brian said. The tear eyed family and Melissa all nodded in agreement. Agent King smiled, she was happy to help especially since she feared her niece was having the same problem.
