Judy Harmon is reflecting on a memory from her childhood. She thinks, all of a sudden, that there must have been other children who were targeted by the same man. Judy had been eight years old that summer, living in Kansas City. She had been walking back alone from Bible School. A man — white, tall, thin — called out to her from under the open door of a church. He implored her to come help him change a light bulb. She kept refusing, and he kept persisting, until she finally walked away from him quickly. She tells her mother now, fifty eight years later, over the phone. Her mother asks her why she's never told her this before, and Judy tells her that she had told her babysitter at the time, but the sitter never told her parents. Judy, now living in Detroit, books a flight to Kansas City. When she arrives, she drives to the church where the man had shouted at her. It's a different church now, an African American Methodist congregation, and an elderly black woman tells her that the church is closed. The woman says she wouldn't know what the church would have been when Judy was a child because it wouldn't have been an African American congregation then — Kansas City was segregated at that time. Judy walks to the nearest police station and speaks to a detective, who tells her she'll let her know if she finds anything. The detective calls her after a bit with the name of the cop who used to cover that beat, way back when. Judy visits the man in his nursing home, and he rails into her for never speaking out, saying that so many kids could have avoided harm had she come forward as a witness. He calls her a coward, and tells her she is way too late. Next, Judy visits Mary Lynn, who was the babysitter she returned to that afternoon following her interaction with the creepy man. Mary Lynn talks sadly of her daughter Sue, who is lost to her parents due to drug addiction, prostitution, and jail time. Judy asks Mary Lynn if she remembers the day Judy came home, upset about a creepy man, and Mary Lynn does — she had told Judy not to worry, because that man had just been Sue's uncle. His name is James Marway, and Sue used to help him out with odd jobs. Judy finds James Marway in a nursing home. He has lost his memory, but once alone with him, Judy slaps him hard across the face, telling him that the slap is for Sue. Then, she pulls out his pillow and presses it to his face, hard. This is for the other children, she says.
