Summary
Jolyne rides home with her boyfriend, Romeo, during a rainy October evening. To Romeo's dismay, Jolyne acts cute towards him, calling him names like "Romi." Romeo asks if the rumors of Jolyne being in a biker gang are true. She replies that she would never do anything bad like stealing, and that her tattoo is just a souvenir from a previous vacation. The two get close in order to kiss, but a body crashes into Romeo's windshield. The car veers off to the side of the road, its passengers frightened due to the occurrence. Jolyne looks back and sees a corpse hanging from a tree. She tries to call an ambulance, but Romeo stops her, fearing that their futures are at stake. He convinces her that they must hide the body and the rain will wash away the evidence. They put the corpse in the trunk and drive away.
A few days later, Jolyne is arrested for homicide. Jolyne is interrogated, the cops believing her to be the driver. Another few days pass by, with Jolyne now at Green Dolphin Street Prison, consulting with her lawyer. Her lawyer tells her that Romeo reported the car was stolen, and that Jolyne was suspected of stealing the car and hitting a civilian while drunk. The lawyer asks if Romeo was actually driving, to which Jolyne replies that she cannot say. The lawyer then states that if Jolyne freely admits to the crime, some charges will be dropped and she will only receive a one-to-two year sentence. Jolyne rejects this, holding on to the idea that she is innocent. However, in court, she accepts the terms of the plea bargain, and pleas guilty to all charges, but the lawyer had tricked her. Since she had hid the corpse, the plea bargain is ineffective and she is sentenced to fifteen years in Green Dolphin Street Prison. The lawyer talks with Romeo outside the courtroom, revealing their scheme.
