Clive Doyle disputes the government's claim that the Branch Davidians committed mass suicide by setting the fire. He testifies that David Koresh intended to preserve the building as evidence and that the FBI created a flammable environment by pumping in gas and using tanks to demolish walls, creating a "chimney effect." Doyle describes his harrowing escape from the pitch-black, smoke-filled building as one of the last survivors to exit.

A University of Texas student named Kevin questions Katherine Matteson regarding allegations that David Koresh started the fire or sought martyrdom. Matteson denies that the group set the fire and strongly rejects the suicide narrative, noting that Koresh could have ended his life much earlier after being shot if that were his intent. She maintains that the group expected to eventually resolve the matter in a court of law.
