[On the short ride over, she learns that the cop that had his hands on her is named Harry and the other is named Marv. Which is a stupid name, but whatever. They make promises that they're going to lock Johnnie up so he can't hurt her or something, and so the second Harry escorts her out of the car she's pulling away and making a beeline for Johnnie.
Her arms wrap around him on impact, and she clings to him even as the cops approach and try to pry her off of him.]
She's real worked up, Ed. Won't tell us anything, though.
[Marv looks over to his partner trying to pull the girl off of Johnnie. She's doing a really good job of clinging to him. Maybe she's not afraid of the kid after all.]
The thing is, Ed, your boy told us that you're the one that hit her. Is that why she's so upset?
[Something clicks in her head, and Chrissy decides she's had enough.]
I'm upset because you keep trying to take me away from Johnnie and he's the only one I trust! He'd never hurt me. Ever. He's nothing like his dad.
[Does that count as her putting the blame on good old Ed? She doesn't care. She just wants the cops to leave. She also wants to make sure Johnnie's dad hears this next part, so she pulls free from Johnnie's arms on her own accord and turns to look him right in the eye.]
He grew up to be a good man. He protects me. Takes care of me every single day. He makes sure I'm safe. I'm never afraid of him.
