Episode Ten: Dr Rob

She handed her daughters to a stranger and waited. The hardest thing she had ever done.

The court has appointed a child psychologist. His name is Dr Robert Radcliffe. He is kind, patient, and experienced. He is also about to hear things from two small girls that no child should have to say.

Episode Ten follows the assessment process — the box exercises, the waiting rooms, the fear of being accused of coaching, and the moment Molly ran out of the house and up the road rather than speak about her father.

Four voices this episode:

The story of the sessions, the boxes, and the body that spoke when words failed.

The law on expert witnesses, psychological assessment, and the limits of a clinical snapshot.

Vanessa's reflection on the cruelest paradox — the more you have survived, the more you must conceal what surviving cost.

The stage — seeking evidence, and the fear that nobody will believe the children.

Her body could not stay in the room while someone tried to talk about her father. That flight was testimony. The system did not know how to hear it.
