Gladys tries to ____________________ Norma Jeane in the bathtub. Norma Jeane escapes to the house of her neighbor. A few days later, Norma
Jeane is sent to an ____________________while Gladys is admitted to a mental ____________________.
In the 1940s, Norma Jeane becomes a pin-up girl under the ____________________ name of "Marilyn Monroe". In 1951, she auditions for the

the abortion, she breaks things off with Cass and Eddy. She later meets Joe DiMaggio, a retired athlete who sympathizes with her when she

By 1962, she has become dependent on _____________________ and alcohol. Secret Service agents pick up an intoxicated Norma Jeane and take
her to a hotel to meet the _____________________, who forces her to fellate him, before raping her, and then has her taken away after she
vomits in his bed. Already dazed and drugged on pills, she begins to wonder if this is what being 'Marilyn Monroe' has led to, and she also

Cass has died and has left something to her. Cass' ____________________ turns out to be the stuffed tiger plush that she found when the three of
them were together, and the package also contains a letter where he confesses that the letters that Norma Jeane has been receiving, supposedly
from her father, were actually written by _____________________.
Shattered by the revelation, Norma Jeane ____________________ on barbiturates; as she lies dying on her bed, she has a vision of her
