In the criminal justice system

00:00:02,792 --> 00:00:06,390
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups,

3
00:00:06,732 --> 00:00:08,531
the police who investigate crime

4
00:00:08,603 --> 00:00:11,073
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.

5
00:00:11,476 --> 00:00:12,705
These are their stories.

6
00:00:14,348 --> 00:00:16,249
I am telling you it was a sign.

7
00:00:16,318 --> 00:00:18,619
Someone you knew 15 years
ago calling from...

8
00:00:18,690 --> 00:00:20,626
Have a good night, Rudy.
You too.

9
00:00:20,994 --> 00:00:24,957
The fact that she calls right when I'm
deciding whether to take the job in Chicago,

10
00:00:25,035 --> 00:00:26,094
what do you call that?

11
00:00:26,973 --> 00:00:28,134
A coincidence.

12
00:00:29,444 --> 00:00:31,003
Yeah, sure. Why not?

13
00:00:31,615 --> 00:00:34,678
Uproot your whole life because a virtual
stranger calls from out of the blue.

14
00:00:34,754 --> 00:00:35,755
Sue me!

15
00:00:35,823 --> 00:00:36,882
I don't believe in chance.

16
00:00:36,958 --> 00:00:38,449
She was trying to raise money.

17
00:00:38,529 --> 00:00:41,432
She called everyone
in the alumni directory.

18
00:00:41,667 --> 00:00:43,637
It's only a 2-hour flight.
(SIGHS)

19
00:00:43,704 --> 00:00:45,867
I could be back every weekend.

20
00:00:45,943 --> 00:00:48,175
Besides, you know what
they say about absence.

21
00:00:48,247 --> 00:00:50,979
I'm more concerned with what
they say about abstinence.

22
00:00:51,587 --> 00:00:52,588
Come here.

23
00:00:55,327 --> 00:00:56,328
Mmm.

24
00:00:56,997 --> 00:00:57,998
Who knows?

25
00:00:58,901 --> 00:01:01,737
We may find ourselves
joining the mile-high club.

26
00:01:09,188 --> 00:01:10,189
Where are you going?

27
00:01:10,257 --> 00:01:11,725
What are you doing?

28
00:01:13,028 --> 00:01:14,361
It's a beautiful night.

It's cold on the roof.

30
00:01:17,938 --> 00:01:19,531

Thank God for small favors.

41
00:01:54,643 --> 00:01:58,173
The victim's an Asian female. I'd
say late teens, early twenties.

42
00:01:59,385 --> 00:02:01,548
Why does it smell like
happy hour up here?

43
00:02:02,325 --> 00:02:03,851
The nose knows.

44
00:02:05,130 --> 00:02:07,362

Eight-year-old.

45
00:02:07,435 --> 00:02:08,926
Why not use the good stuff?

46
00:02:10,207 --> 00:02:12,108
Which one of you
actually lives here?

47
00:02:12,177 --> 00:02:13,202
That would be me.

48
00:02:13,279 --> 00:02:14,280

49
00:02:14,348 --> 00:02:16,079
It looked to me like
you missed your floor.

50
00:02:16,151 --> 00:02:17,449
We were going to the roof.

51
00:02:17,521 --> 00:02:18,853
Stargazing.

52
00:02:18,924 --> 00:02:20,051
Right.

53
00:02:20,126 --> 00:02:23,462
The only way to get to the roof
is the stairwell on that floor.

54
00:02:23,532 --> 00:02:24,864
I don't know.

55
00:02:24,936 --> 00:02:28,397
Carrying signs and shouting seems a
better way to make a political statement.

56
00:02:28,476 --> 00:02:29,501
Excuse me?

57
00:02:29,978 --> 00:02:32,244
That apartment, penthouse 1,

58
00:02:32,317 --> 00:02:34,981
the Deputy Consul-General
from China lives there.

59
00:02:35,690 --> 00:02:37,171
You still don't notice
anything weird?

60
00:02:37,226 --> 00:02:39,355
Other than lighting
herself on fire?

61
00:02:39,497 --> 00:02:40,624
One shoe!

62
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:42,696
The girl's only got one shoe.

63
00:02:42,770 --> 00:02:44,103
Any ID?

64
00:02:44,173 --> 00:02:47,407
It could be Cinderella. Lost a slipper
on the way back from the ball.

65
00:02:47,546 --> 00:02:49,607
Or a cane. That looks
like ACE bandage.

00:02:49,683 --> 00:02:52,245
We may have just gone
international on this one.

I'm sorry.

74
00:04:01,590 --> 00:04:03,560
I have a weak stomach
for this sort of thing.

75
00:04:03,627 --> 00:04:04,994
Most people do.

76
00:04:05,064 --> 00:04:06,225
They're crazy, you know?

77
00:04:06,300 --> 00:04:07,928
Who exactly are
we talking about?

78
00:04:08,002 --> 00:04:09,869
These Falun Gong people.
I'm sorry?

79
00:04:11,108 --> 00:04:12,509
Falun Gong.

80
00:04:12,579 --> 00:04:14,047
They are a heretical cult.

81
00:04:14,114 --> 00:04:15,640
My government has banned them,

82
00:04:15,718 --> 00:04:19,316
saving a lot of innocent victims
from being unwittingly brainwashed.

83
00:04:19,391 --> 00:04:20,826
Into committing suicide?

84
00:04:21,095 --> 00:04:23,463
They hook their followers
first by convincing them

85
00:04:23,533 --> 00:04:25,503
it's a good way to stay
physically fit.

86
00:04:25,570 --> 00:04:27,631
Breathing exercises,
things like that.

87
00:04:27,841 --> 00:04:29,936
And then they graduate
to self-immolation?

88
00:04:30,012 --> 00:04:33,577
Sometimes. A group did this in
Tiananmen Square last year.

89
00:04:33,987 --> 00:04:36,355
And their leader
thinks he can fly.

90
00:04:36,424 --> 00:04:39,260
I don't know how many of his
followers have jumped off buildings.

91
00:04:39,698 --> 00:04:41,724

our consulate is.

Does he live here?

00:05:06,483 --> 00:05:09,182
No. He's more like
a personal assistant.

Do you have any idea
who that girl is?

106
00:05:12,696 --> 00:05:14,461
Actually, we were
hoping that you knew.

107
00:05:14,533 --> 00:05:17,835
Well, obviously her aim was
to embarrass my government.

108
00:05:19,709 --> 00:05:21,440
How terrible for a family,

109
00:05:21,512 --> 00:05:23,106
to lose a child to a cult.

110
00:05:24,752 --> 00:05:28,122
Nobody gets by me. That's
why I get 7:00 to midnight.

111
00:05:28,193 --> 00:05:29,559
That's the busy time?

112
00:05:29,662 --> 00:05:31,325
Well, people coming
home from the office,

113
00:05:31,399 --> 00:05:33,665
people going out for their
evening's entertainment.

00:05:33,737 --> 00:05:34,898
And you see everybody?

That's right.

116
00:05:36,041 --> 00:05:38,409
Okay, so did anybody
visit Mr. Chen tonight?

117
00:05:38,479 --> 00:05:43,353
That would have been tough. He left before
I came on and you saw when he got back.

118
00:05:43,689 --> 00:05:45,022
You know, I, uh,

119
00:05:45,092 --> 00:05:47,426
thought about joining
the force, but the old lady...

120
00:05:47,497 --> 00:05:48,498
She worries.

121
00:05:48,565 --> 00:05:49,692
That's too bad, man.

122
00:05:49,768 --> 00:05:52,535
So, any of the residents
have guests tonight?

123
00:05:52,607 --> 00:05:55,704
The Carlsons in 301
had the piano tuner,

124
00:05:55,780 --> 00:05:58,512
he left at 8:15.
That's about it.

125
00:05:58,584 --> 00:06:00,426
And this is the only
entrance into the building?

126
00:06:00,455 --> 00:06:03,916
Yeah. There's a garage entrance around
the corner, but you gotta get by Hank.

127
00:06:04,263 --> 00:06:06,392
Oh. Hank's pretty
good, too, huh?

128
00:06:07,135 --> 00:06:08,135
You'll see.

129
00:06:08,704 --> 00:06:09,831
I heard it was suicide.

130
00:06:09,907 --> 00:06:13,642
It's a homicide until our Medical
Examiner tells us otherwise.

131
00:06:13,714 --> 00:06:15,684
I didn't see no Oriental
broads come in this way.

00:06:15,752 --> 00:06:17,745
I believe they're called

00:06:17,823 --> 00:06:20,055
Whatever. Like we don't have
enough Hebrews in the building,

134
00:06:20,127 --> 00:06:21,595
now they gotta sell
to the Red Army?

135
00:06:21,964 --> 00:06:24,799
If anybody tried to get in here
that I didn't know, I'd know.

136
00:06:24,869 --> 00:06:27,112
What if they were in the back
seat of something like that?

137
00:06:27,241 --> 00:06:29,871

hasn't had a guest in two years.

00:06:29,946 --> 00:06:31,882
ED: Now, she don't drive that
thing herself, does she?

139
00:06:31,950 --> 00:06:34,443
She couldn't reach
the pedals. She's got Wong.

140
00:06:35,156 --> 00:06:37,251
HANK: Nice guy for a...
Chauffeur?

141
00:06:37,728 --> 00:06:38,729
Exactly.

142
00:06:39,130 --> 00:06:41,225
What time did
he drop the car off?

143
00:06:41,301 --> 00:06:42,302
I'd say
about 8:00.

144
00:06:42,370 --> 00:06:44,567
Do you happen to know
where Mr. Wong lives?

145
00:06:44,641 --> 00:06:46,235
Yeah. The Chinatown OTB.

146
00:06:46,311 --> 00:06:49,408
He bets every race
at every track in the world.

147
00:06:49,484 --> 00:06:52,148
Oh, you mean those weirdos
over on the West Side.

148
00:06:52,256 --> 00:06:55,490
Mmm-hmm, that's them. They're against
something. I'm just not sure what it is.

149
00:06:55,596 --> 00:06:57,998
Well, at least they don't ask
for money or bang on your door

150
00:06:58,067 --> 00:07:00,469
at 6 a.m. Passing
out pamphlets.

151
00:07:01,574 --> 00:07:03,510
Any hot picks?
We're all interested.

152
00:07:03,578 --> 00:07:06,744
Hey, for your information, our
key witness plays the ponies.

153
00:07:06,817 --> 00:07:09,755
I'm just looking for OTB's
first Simulcast race.

154
00:07:09,823 --> 00:07:11,986
Uh-huh.
The 3rd at Belmont?

155
00:07:12,061 --> 00:07:14,122
Okay, so I took a little detour.

156
00:07:14,232 --> 00:07:16,669
Our Jane Doe is not
rushing off anyplace.

157
00:07:16,737 --> 00:07:20,232
Anyway, we're hoping that Mr. Wong
snuck her in through the garage.

158
00:07:20,311 --> 00:07:22,281
Or maybe she landed on the roof.

159
00:07:22,515 --> 00:07:23,516
Should I even ask?

160
00:07:23,583 --> 00:07:25,450
Well, besides
self-immolations,

161
00:07:25,521 --> 00:07:28,652
the Deputy Consul-General says that some
of these people think they can fly.

162
00:07:29,094 --> 00:07:30,927
Hey, who am I to doubt them?

163
00:07:30,998 --> 00:07:33,230
It's post time in Ireland.
All right.

164
00:07:34,772 --> 00:07:36,240
It's the greatest
gig in the world.

165
00:07:36,308 --> 00:07:38,871
Once a day, Mrs. Schumacher
goes out to meet her sister.

166
00:07:39,514 --> 00:07:42,384
Once a week, I take the car
out for a wash and wax.

167
00:07:42,487 --> 00:07:45,288
A little manicure
here, a lunch there.

168
00:07:45,460 --> 00:07:47,422
Have you been by to see
Mrs. Schumacher yet today?

169
00:07:47,464 --> 00:07:49,661
No. Has something
happened to her?

170
00:07:49,735 --> 00:07:52,673
No, but somebody committed suicide
in her building last night.

171
00:07:54,945 --> 00:07:57,006
It's that O'Grady kid, right?

172
00:07:57,082 --> 00:07:58,550
That one's not from this planet.

173
00:07:58,618 --> 00:08:01,590
No. Actually it was a stranger. Nobody
knows how she got into the building.

174
00:08:01,657 --> 00:08:03,524
We were thinking maybe
you drove her there.

175
00:08:03,595 --> 00:08:07,090
Hey! I've got a better chance of
winning the Pick 6 at Santa Anita.

176
00:08:07,169 --> 00:08:10,664
Mrs. S. Even smells another
person in that car, I'm canned.

177
00:08:11,411 --> 00:08:13,745
Sorry, I can't help you.
Can I...

178
00:08:14,082 --> 00:08:15,482
BRISCOE:
Yeah. Go ahead.

179
00:08:17,055 --> 00:08:18,489
You buy that?

180
00:08:18,557 --> 00:08:19,924
Not to profile, but no.

181
00:08:19,994 --> 00:08:22,294
Aw, come on. This kid eats
apple pie for breakfast.

182
00:08:22,365 --> 00:08:23,926
Let's go talk to
Mrs. Schumacher anyway.

183
00:08:23,967 --> 00:08:25,630
I've got nothing better
to do till lunch.

184
00:08:27,442 --> 00:08:29,605
Oh, it's horrible, horrible.

185
00:08:29,679 --> 00:08:30,772
The poor girl.

186
00:08:30,848 --> 00:08:35,312
Did you see any strangers around the
building, in the halls, the elevator?

187
00:08:35,390 --> 00:08:37,292
No, I don't go out much anymore,

188
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,421
now that Freddy has passed on.

189
00:08:39,498 --> 00:08:41,661
ED: Freddy, is that
your husband?

190
00:08:41,735 --> 00:08:44,229
My bichon frise.

191
00:08:44,508 --> 00:08:45,533
Oh...

192
00:08:45,610 --> 00:08:47,078
He loved the park.

193
00:08:47,681 --> 00:08:51,381
We'd sit on a bench and
he'd bark at the bicycles.

194
00:08:51,455 --> 00:08:54,552
Actually, Mrs. Schumacher, we
were wondering about your driver.

195
00:08:55,095 --> 00:08:57,065
It's funny you should
bring him up.

196
00:08:58,368 --> 00:09:01,067
Freddy actually introduced me to Mr.
Wong.

197
00:09:01,875 --> 00:09:04,278
Your dog introduced you
to your driver?

198
00:09:04,647 --> 00:09:05,648
Mmm-hmm!

199
00:09:06,618 --> 00:09:11,424
You know those people that do that
strange routine in the park every day?

200
00:09:11,494 --> 00:09:16,094
Um, it's like karate,
but nobody gets hit.

201
00:09:16,170 --> 00:09:18,163
Mr. Wong was one of them?

202
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,676
Freddy got such
a kick out of him.

203
00:09:22,382 --> 00:09:24,648
MORAN: I guess I've been doing the
exercises for about a year now.

204
00:09:24,819 --> 00:09:27,153
My wife read some article
about the health benefits.

205
00:09:27,225 --> 00:09:29,057
She got bored,
but I'm still here.

206
00:09:29,295 --> 00:09:31,425
BRISCOE: My ex-wife talked
me into seeing a counselor

207
00:09:31,500 --> 00:09:33,025
and the counselor talked
me into getting a divorce.

208
00:09:33,102 --> 00:09:34,434
Well, you ought to try this.

209
00:09:34,505 --> 00:09:38,104
I mean, all these people wasting thousands
of dollars on shrinks when a little

210
00:09:38,179 --> 00:09:40,376
(INHALES) free breathing
cures all that ails.

211
00:09:40,450 --> 00:09:43,752
Well, we hear that there's a lot
more to it than just breathing.

212
00:09:43,823 --> 00:09:46,192
That's right. It fills
a spiritual void.

213
00:09:46,596 --> 00:09:49,123
Falun Gong, it means
"law of the wheel."

214
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,603
That all things
come full circle.

215
00:09:51,672 --> 00:09:53,504
Hey, does Tommy Wong
come here often?

216
00:09:53,576 --> 00:09:56,012
Oh, sure.
Yeah, mostly mornings now.

217
00:09:56,081 --> 00:09:59,212
I'm a two-a-day-er. Tommy didn't
do anything wrong, did he?

218
00:09:59,287 --> 00:10:02,418
No, no. We're looking for a
friend of his, a young lady?

219
00:10:02,493 --> 00:10:05,397
Falun Gong is not a singles
party, Detectives.

220
00:10:05,466 --> 00:10:08,232
Let me ask you this. Are any of
your regulars missing today?

221
00:10:08,305 --> 00:10:11,675
Uh... Glen Haff.
He's on jury duty,

222
00:10:11,745 --> 00:10:15,115
and, uh, Huang Quan.
She goes by Helen.

223
00:10:15,551 --> 00:10:17,111
Hardly speaks any English.

224
00:10:17,188 --> 00:10:18,622
Poor thing, she
sprained her ankle.

225
00:10:19,226 --> 00:10:20,592
I sprained my ankle once.

226
00:10:20,662 --> 00:10:23,634
My foot blew up so bad I
couldn't wear a shoe for a week.

227
00:10:23,701 --> 00:10:25,330
Well, you see,
with our exercises,

228
00:10:25,405 --> 00:10:27,169
I bet Helen is back
in a day or two.

229
00:10:27,242 --> 00:10:29,371
If we wanted to, where
would we find Miss Quan?

230
00:10:29,479 --> 00:10:32,940
You know what? Her older sister
cuts my hair at Chambliss on 72nd.

231
00:10:33,486 --> 00:10:35,479
Helen does shampooing
there part-time.

232
00:10:37,695 --> 00:10:39,289
Just let it sit for a while.

233
00:10:43,740 --> 00:10:45,300
Helen's not here today.

234
00:10:45,677 --> 00:10:48,342
She's new to this country so
whatever she did, it's...

235
00:10:48,416 --> 00:10:50,409
Wendy, this may be
kind of rough.

236
00:10:59,972 --> 00:11:00,973
I'm so sorry.

237
00:11:02,009 --> 00:11:03,102
Stupid little...

238
00:11:07,152 --> 00:11:09,953
It would have been easier if
she were hooked on heroin.

239
00:11:10,024 --> 00:11:12,655
BRISCOE: You're talking
about Falun Gong?

240
00:11:13,331 --> 00:11:14,332
She called it

241
00:11:14,901 --> 00:11:17,235
a search for spirituality.

242
00:11:17,907 --> 00:11:19,000
But it's a cult.

243
00:11:19,911 --> 00:11:21,641
She was the sweetest little kid.

244
00:11:21,714 --> 00:11:23,274
You wouldn't believe.

245
00:11:23,351 --> 00:11:25,617
Now look at her.

246
00:11:25,989 --> 00:11:28,460
How did she get
involved with it?

247
00:11:28,528 --> 00:11:29,655
My mom.

248
00:11:30,598 --> 00:11:33,068
When Dad and I left
18 years ago...

249
00:11:33,136 --> 00:11:36,735
Put it this way. She was a perfect
candidate for their brainwashing.

250
00:11:36,811 --> 00:11:37,812
But Helen...

251
00:11:37,879 --> 00:11:41,909
We talked to somebody who thinks Falun
Gong is just a way to stay fit.

252
00:11:41,986 --> 00:11:45,187
I'm not the biggest fan of the Chinese
government, but maybe they're right.

253
00:11:45,260 --> 00:11:46,353
ED: Right about what?

254
00:11:46,429 --> 00:11:48,797
They're trying to
deprogram these people.

255
00:11:48,867 --> 00:11:50,860
They've created camps for it.

256
00:11:50,938 --> 00:11:52,908
Helen told me Mom's in one.

257
00:11:52,975 --> 00:11:54,603
So that's what Helen
was protesting?

258
00:11:56,315 --> 00:11:57,442
It's just stupid.

259
00:11:58,285 --> 00:12:00,247
I mean, what made her think
that this would change

260
00:12:00,289 --> 00:12:02,555
what's going on
thousands of miles away?

261
00:12:05,199 --> 00:12:07,065
Did Helen leave a note
or anything?

262
00:12:11,745 --> 00:12:13,179
ED: If she did leave
a suicide note,

263
00:12:13,248 --> 00:12:15,050
it's not like I'm going
to be able to read it.

264
00:12:15,118 --> 00:12:17,748
Uh, David Ong
in Vice can translate.

265
00:12:19,860 --> 00:12:21,352
Hey, look at this.

266
00:12:21,430 --> 00:12:23,730
<i>Picking the Ponies</i>
by Chip Burton.

267
00:12:23,801 --> 00:12:25,703
Now that's pretty strange
reading for somebody

268
00:12:25,772 --> 00:12:27,867
who isn't exactly up to
speed on their English.

269
00:12:27,943 --> 00:12:29,138
Yeah, but not for somebody
(CELL PHONE RINGS)

270
00:12:29,212 --> 00:12:31,045
Who practically
lives at the OTB.

271
00:12:32,953 --> 00:12:35,048
Yeah? Oh, hey, what's up?

272
00:12:36,693 --> 00:12:38,094
Okay. Okay,
we'll be right there.

273
00:12:38,764 --> 00:12:39,805
That was
the M.E.'s office.

274
00:12:39,866 --> 00:12:42,167
Good. We can finally
put this to bed.

275
00:12:42,805 --> 00:12:45,105
Third degree burns
over 60% of her body.

276
00:12:45,176 --> 00:12:46,543
Well, we kind of knew that, Doc.

277
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,781
Ah, but what you didn't know was that there
was no carbon monoxide in her lungs,

278
00:12:50,854 --> 00:12:53,951
which means... She was dead
before she got torched.

279
00:12:54,027 --> 00:12:57,557
The petechial hemorrhaging in her
eyes tells me that she was strangled.

280
00:12:57,634 --> 00:13:00,504
Well, I guess we can stop
looking for the suicide note.

281
00:13:05,148 --> 00:13:07,449
The fact is you lied, Tommy.

282
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:08,749
No, I didn't.

283
00:13:08,823 --> 00:13:11,590
Hey, maybe this Falun
Gong affects your memory,

284
00:13:11,662 --> 00:13:13,655
but we asked you
if you knew the woman

285
00:13:13,733 --> 00:13:16,260
who cooked herself outside the
Deputy Consul's apartment.

286
00:13:16,337 --> 00:13:17,378
I didn't know it was Helen.

287
00:13:17,406 --> 00:13:18,669
But you knew Helen.

288
00:13:21,414 --> 00:13:22,415
You didn't ask me that.

289
00:13:22,483 --> 00:13:24,476
I don't like
chasing my tail here.

290
00:13:24,553 --> 00:13:25,543
I don't know what you're saying.

291
00:13:25,622 --> 00:13:28,856
Man, if you don't give me a straight
answer, I swear before God I will...

292
00:13:28,928 --> 00:13:31,490
Okay! Okay!
I knew Helen.

293
00:13:35,341 --> 00:13:36,342
Thank you.

294
00:13:38,113 --> 00:13:40,583
I was just trying to help
her become American.

295
00:13:40,785 --> 00:13:43,484
Help her with the language,
stuff like that.

296
00:13:43,657 --> 00:13:46,458
Our people were from
the same part of China.

297
00:13:46,530 --> 00:13:48,466
So you helped her
with the language

298
00:13:48,534 --> 00:13:50,970
by giving her a book
on betting the ponies.

299
00:13:52,775 --> 00:13:54,972
I don't have that much
reading material.

300
00:13:55,113 --> 00:13:56,114
(LAUGHING)

301
00:13:56,482 --> 00:13:57,677
That's all I know.

302
00:13:57,751 --> 00:13:58,981
We gave you your chance, man.

303
00:13:59,054 --> 00:14:00,784
What time's the next
bus to Rikers?

304
00:14:00,857 --> 00:14:02,986
Wait! Just, just,
just hold on!

305
00:14:07,236 --> 00:14:08,865
I met her in the park.

306
00:14:09,775 --> 00:14:14,273
And she told me that her mom
was locked up back in China.

307
00:14:14,350 --> 00:14:15,716
BRISCOE:
What for?

308
00:14:16,621 --> 00:14:19,218
For believing. Falun Gong
is illegal over there.

309
00:14:19,861 --> 00:14:21,387
Helen wanted to help
her mom get out,

310
00:14:21,464 --> 00:14:23,798
so when she heard that Chen lives in Mrs.
Schumacher's building,

311
00:14:23,869 --> 00:14:25,532
she thought maybe
he could do something.

312
00:14:25,606 --> 00:14:27,688
Would have been a whole lot
easier just to ask nicely.

313
00:14:27,710 --> 00:14:29,737
WONG: Yeah. She tried. He
wouldn't take her calls.

314
00:14:29,814 --> 00:14:31,750
She said something
about suing him.

315
00:14:32,018 --> 00:14:33,611
She was more American
than we thought.

316
00:14:33,789 --> 00:14:35,451
So you just snuck her
into the building?

317
00:14:35,691 --> 00:14:40,065
Yeah. But she didn't tell me that she
was going to light herself on fire.

318
00:14:41,737 --> 00:14:43,639
She just wanted to talk,

319
00:14:44,141 --> 00:14:47,204
went in through the garage,
and then I went home.

320
00:14:47,281 --> 00:14:51,655
Look, I'm not perfect, but I'm not
gonna help someone commit suicide.

321
00:14:52,992 --> 00:14:54,654
I need a cup of coffee.

322
00:14:55,497 --> 00:14:56,989
Wait! What about me?

323
00:14:57,467 --> 00:14:59,198
Make yourself at home, bro.

324
00:15:01,542 --> 00:15:03,603
You think he doesn't
know she was strangled?

325
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,014
I think he has trouble
with the truth in general.

326
00:15:06,084 --> 00:15:08,487
We can't keep him forever
with what we got.

327
00:15:08,890 --> 00:15:10,826
You talk to the
Deputy Consul-General,

328
00:15:10,927 --> 00:15:13,797
I'll keep Mr. Wong
dancing as long as I can.

329
00:15:14,500 --> 00:15:16,697
Mr. Wong, do you
have a lawyer?

330
00:15:18,141 --> 00:15:20,077
She may have come to talk to me,

331
00:15:20,145 --> 00:15:23,139
but I was at the consulate with
a group of Chinese businessmen,

332
00:15:23,218 --> 00:15:25,745
until I arrived home
to find you in my corridor.

333
00:15:25,990 --> 00:15:27,823
So you never talked to her?

334
00:15:27,894 --> 00:15:29,328
Didn't I just say that?

335
00:15:30,265 --> 00:15:31,266
I'm sorry.

336
00:15:32,904 --> 00:15:36,468
I realize Americans
always root for the underdog,

337
00:15:36,543 --> 00:15:40,813
but I didn't see any of you coming to the
defense of Jim Jones or David Koresh.

338
00:15:41,052 --> 00:15:43,455
We didn't come here to have a
political argument with you.

339
00:15:44,526 --> 00:15:46,154
Of course not.
I'm sorry.

340
00:15:46,664 --> 00:15:48,497
These people just infuriate me.

341
00:15:48,567 --> 00:15:50,867
Protesting outside
my door like this.

342
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,076
It's like the thief
who screams, "Stop, thief!"

343
00:15:54,145 --> 00:15:56,479
Well, we think
this thief was murdered.

344
00:15:56,549 --> 00:16:01,685
You see? They will even sacrifice their
own if it suits their sick purposes.

345
00:16:01,759 --> 00:16:03,922
Wait a minute. You're
telling me one believer

346
00:16:03,997 --> 00:16:06,024
would kill another one
just to prove a point?

347
00:16:06,301 --> 00:16:09,205
But this wouldn't be the first time.
They're sick.

348
00:16:09,307 --> 00:16:12,906
Some of them cut their own stomachs
open to find the wheel inside.

349
00:16:13,248 --> 00:16:16,152
The interesting thing here is that
one of Helen's friends told us

350
00:16:16,221 --> 00:16:18,555
that she brought some sort
of legal action against you.

351
00:16:18,625 --> 00:16:21,961
For what? I told you,
I never saw her before.

352
00:16:22,032 --> 00:16:24,799
Something to do with her mother
back in the old country.

353
00:16:27,410 --> 00:16:32,511
First of all, if I had been sued it would be
dismissed on jurisdictional grounds alone.

354
00:16:32,586 --> 00:16:33,850
Second,

355
00:16:33,922 --> 00:16:37,019
if I were actually found
liable for something,

356
00:16:37,095 --> 00:16:41,000
I could simply leave the country and have
a default judgment entered against me.

357
00:16:42,004 --> 00:16:43,906
You're right. You could.

358
00:16:44,175 --> 00:16:46,373
Thank you for
your time, Mr. Chen.

359
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,677
I realize you're
just doing your jobs.

360
00:16:53,995 --> 00:16:56,261
A local artist back in Tianjin.

361
00:16:58,403 --> 00:17:02,001
Hey, Tianjin. Isn't that where Helen's
sister said their family was from?

362
00:17:02,143 --> 00:17:03,237
Probably a coincidence.

363
00:17:03,313 --> 00:17:04,372
Yeah, so I figured.

364
00:17:04,782 --> 00:17:06,979
You know, and I'm not
pointing any fingers,

365
00:17:07,053 --> 00:17:10,720
but didn't that sound like that Deputy
Consul knew an awful lot about lawsuits

366
00:17:10,794 --> 00:17:12,660
for somebody
who wasn't getting sued?

367
00:17:12,731 --> 00:17:16,864
Helen Quan was new to this country. Now
where's she gonna go to find a lawyer?

368
00:17:18,642 --> 00:17:21,205
My client's already told your
boss everything he knows.

369
00:17:21,615 --> 00:17:25,749
And the bottom line is you don't have any
possible cause to hold him any longer.

370
00:17:25,823 --> 00:17:27,690
(CHUCKLING) Don't you
mean "probable cause"?

371
00:17:27,861 --> 00:17:31,858
No, I mean you don't have anything
that even possibly resembles evidence.

372
00:17:32,202 --> 00:17:34,799
Well, his lies
are getting us pretty close.

373
00:17:35,375 --> 00:17:36,741
WONG: I told the truth.

374
00:17:36,811 --> 00:17:40,045
Mr. Chen said he doesn't
know anything about a lawsuit.

375
00:17:40,719 --> 00:17:41,720
He's lying.

376
00:17:41,787 --> 00:17:45,282
Actually, we checked. There are no
lawsuits against him in New York.

377
00:17:45,362 --> 00:17:46,455
Of course there aren't.

378
00:17:46,531 --> 00:17:47,624
It's a Federal case.

379
00:17:48,033 --> 00:17:50,196
You need to speak to Sally Xiao.

380
00:17:50,271 --> 00:17:51,637
She's on Mott Street.

381
00:17:55,714 --> 00:17:58,948
The Alien Tort Claims Act, and the
Torture Victim Prevention Act.

382
00:17:59,022 --> 00:18:00,957
Each gave us jurisdiction over Mr.
Chen.

383
00:18:01,025 --> 00:18:03,724
You're saying the Deputy
Consul-General tortured people?

384
00:18:03,797 --> 00:18:06,131
He was mayor of a town
where the torture took place.

385
00:18:06,235 --> 00:18:09,766
And they can sue him here for something
he allegedly did over there?

386
00:18:09,842 --> 00:18:12,506
That's why America is the
greatest country in the world.

387
00:18:12,581 --> 00:18:15,678
I don't know. Maybe we're sticking
our noses where we don't belong.

388
00:18:15,753 --> 00:18:19,420
Why? Because China's not sitting on
top of millions of gallons of oil?

389
00:18:19,494 --> 00:18:22,158
To date there are
481 documented cases

390
00:18:22,234 --> 00:18:25,673
of Falun Gong practitioners being
beaten to death while in detention.

391
00:18:25,740 --> 00:18:29,201
Only from what we heard, they
broke Chinese law first.

392
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,477
It's not a just law.
It's religious repression.

393
00:18:31,551 --> 00:18:33,646
Well, you say religion,
they say cult.

394
00:18:33,722 --> 00:18:37,628
Government propaganda. Remember,
Detective, Christianity was once a cult.

395
00:18:37,696 --> 00:18:40,668
Helen Quan's mother has been
needlessly imprisoned for two years,

396
00:18:40,736 --> 00:18:44,471
being fed psychotropic drugs and
beaten until she was barely conscious.

397
00:18:44,543 --> 00:18:46,479
And you know this because...

398
00:18:47,348 --> 00:18:48,349
We know.

399
00:18:48,417 --> 00:18:51,116
No offense, but who's
spewing propaganda now?

400
00:18:52,860 --> 00:18:53,987
You can go.

401
00:18:54,062 --> 00:18:56,555
Look, this lawsuit you filed.

402
00:18:56,633 --> 00:18:59,001
Mr. Chen says he never heard about it.
(PHONE RINGS)

403
00:18:59,606 --> 00:19:02,601
Would an affidavit of service
convince you he's lying?

404
00:19:02,845 --> 00:19:03,846
Hello?

405
00:19:05,685 --> 00:19:08,485
Hmm. It says here Mr. Chen was
served with a Federal complaint

406
00:19:08,557 --> 00:19:10,355
two weeks before
Helen Quan was murdered.

407
00:19:11,128 --> 00:19:14,532
Maybe losing a case like this is a little
more serious than hopping on a plane

408
00:19:14,635 --> 00:19:17,072
with a default judgment
in your briefcase.

409
00:19:17,808 --> 00:19:18,935
Thank you.

410
00:19:19,010 --> 00:19:21,880
Let's go see if he really was
at the consulate that night.

411
00:19:22,884 --> 00:19:25,116
YUEN: In China,
I work as driver.

412
00:19:25,657 --> 00:19:27,650
Then I come here
with Mr. Chen.

413
00:19:27,761 --> 00:19:31,929
I gotta tell you, Mr. Yuen. Your boss
says you're doing a hell of a job.

414
00:19:32,002 --> 00:19:35,236
Uh, Mr. Chen says,
uh, you're the best.

415
00:19:35,809 --> 00:19:37,745
Best. I know.

416
00:19:37,813 --> 00:19:40,010
The night that that
girl killed herself?

417
00:19:40,084 --> 00:19:41,417
It is terrible.

418
00:19:41,855 --> 00:19:44,325
What was the restaurant
that you took Mr. Chen to?

419
00:19:45,027 --> 00:19:50,026
Mr. Chen and friends.
Steak eat. 44th Street.

420
00:19:50,471 --> 00:19:53,443
Okay. We have a problem
with that, Mr. Yuen.

421
00:19:53,511 --> 00:19:56,608
Your boss said that he
didn't go to a restaurant,

422
00:19:56,683 --> 00:19:58,619
that he was at the
consulate all night long.

423
00:19:59,054 --> 00:20:01,287
So you're lying to
protect him, aren't you?

424
00:20:02,595 --> 00:20:04,588
Protect, yes.

425
00:20:05,902 --> 00:20:07,701
I not dishonor
Mr. Chen.

426
00:20:07,972 --> 00:20:09,372
ED: Dishonor?
YUEN: Yes.

427
00:20:10,177 --> 00:20:14,277
Mr. Chen at girls
for money.

428
00:20:14,452 --> 00:20:16,285
Ah, the international language.

429
00:20:17,157 --> 00:20:21,096
I wait for him to be done
and then take him home.

430
00:20:21,164 --> 00:20:23,567
These girls, where
can we find them?

431
00:20:27,477 --> 00:20:29,310
Excuse me. Escort.

432
00:20:29,481 --> 00:20:30,950
Oh, yeah.
I always forget.

433
00:20:31,117 --> 00:20:34,556
Uh, Tuesday night you
escorted a Chinese gentleman?

434
00:20:34,724 --> 00:20:36,318
Sure. Mr. Chen.

435
00:20:36,528 --> 00:20:38,657
He's some kind of big shot
over at the embassy.

436
00:20:38,732 --> 00:20:40,964
And you're sure that it
was on Tuesday night?

437
00:20:41,905 --> 00:20:44,137
Would you like
to see my Palm Pilot?

438
00:20:44,209 --> 00:20:45,576
Actually...

439
00:20:45,646 --> 00:20:47,444
Well, then why don't
you guys come back

440
00:20:48,017 --> 00:20:49,018
with a warrant?

441
00:20:49,787 --> 00:20:51,688
I'm in my second year.
Manhattan Law.

442
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,058
So where did you
escort Mr. Chen?

443
00:20:55,431 --> 00:20:57,526
We didn't go out.
At least, I didn't.

444
00:20:57,602 --> 00:20:58,627
But Mr. Chen did?

445
00:20:59,506 --> 00:21:02,808
It was really a party for these
rich guys over from China.

446
00:21:03,881 --> 00:21:04,882
Tina and I,

447
00:21:05,417 --> 00:21:07,182
we showed them a hell of a time.

448
00:21:07,589 --> 00:21:10,059
Mr. Chen didn't wanna
hang around for the fun?

449
00:21:10,127 --> 00:21:11,720
Nope. He just
gave me some cash.

450
00:21:11,797 --> 00:21:13,288
He said take care of his pals.

451
00:21:13,366 --> 00:21:16,861
And then he left and he came back
around midnight to pick them up.

452
00:21:18,810 --> 00:21:21,873
Tommy Wong sneaks Helen into the building.
To do what?

453
00:21:21,950 --> 00:21:24,444
To talk to Chen. To beg
for her mother's release.

454
00:21:24,522 --> 00:21:26,719
To sit on the floor
cross-legged in silent protest.

455
00:21:26,793 --> 00:21:27,818
It don't really matter.

456
00:21:27,895 --> 00:21:29,124
In court it might.

457
00:21:29,197 --> 00:21:31,760
Well, Chen's been lying
from the get-go, Serena.

458
00:21:31,836 --> 00:21:35,240
The Chinese government sees these
people as some sort of threat.

459
00:21:35,376 --> 00:21:38,439
We figure Chen dropped his buddies
off to get their jollies,

460
00:21:38,515 --> 00:21:40,985
went home and found
Helen Quan sitting there.

461
00:21:41,153 --> 00:21:45,527
One thing leads to another, and he makes
it look like she's one of those fanatics

462
00:21:45,596 --> 00:21:47,566
into self-immolation
for a cause.

463
00:21:47,767 --> 00:21:50,033
A guy like this, you put
the chains on his wrists,

464
00:21:50,105 --> 00:21:52,598
he'll crack like
a year-old fortune cookie.

465
00:21:52,676 --> 00:21:55,512
A Deputy Consul-General?
This is way over my head.

466
00:21:55,749 --> 00:21:58,049
There are rules for
consulate notification.

467
00:21:58,254 --> 00:21:59,688
International issues.

468
00:22:00,024 --> 00:22:02,621
Well, if he gets nervous,
he may split for China.

469
00:22:02,829 --> 00:22:05,528
If he gets anywhere near an
airplane, use the chains.

470
00:22:10,611 --> 00:22:12,706
Whoa! Excuse me!

471
00:22:13,951 --> 00:22:15,192
I'm looking for Detective Green.

472
00:22:15,220 --> 00:22:16,245
Well, he's not here.

473
00:22:16,322 --> 00:22:17,483
Maybe I can help you.

474
00:22:17,558 --> 00:22:19,221
Are you working on
the Helen Quan case?

475
00:22:19,295 --> 00:22:21,161
Actually, I'm in charge here.

476
00:22:21,231 --> 00:22:23,600
Well, let me tell you, you're
doing one hell of a job.

477
00:22:23,670 --> 00:22:24,933
Maybe you should
take a deep breath.

478
00:22:25,006 --> 00:22:26,805
I just came from
the morgue, Detective.

479
00:22:26,876 --> 00:22:29,039
Lieutenant.
She was murdered.

480
00:22:29,114 --> 00:22:30,845
They told me Helen was...

481
00:22:32,922 --> 00:22:33,947
Look,

482
00:22:34,024 --> 00:22:35,545
why don't we go in here,
have a seat...

483
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:36,892
Don't touch me!

484
00:22:37,697 --> 00:22:40,464
My baby sister was
strangled and set on fire,

485
00:22:40,536 --> 00:22:42,938
and the man who did it is
eating dinner at Lutèce!

486
00:22:45,780 --> 00:22:48,546
You're referring to
Deputy Consul-General Chen.

487
00:22:49,153 --> 00:22:51,146
He's under surveillance.
Oh!

488
00:22:52,192 --> 00:22:53,490
That's great.

489
00:22:53,996 --> 00:22:57,162
You know, Dad always said
America was a great country.

490
00:22:57,236 --> 00:22:59,900
He said there was
justice here. Laws.

491
00:22:59,974 --> 00:23:03,470
He could recite the Declaration
of Independence by heart.

492
00:23:03,548 --> 00:23:06,383
You know what,
I'm glad he's dead.

493
00:23:06,453 --> 00:23:09,448
That way he didn't have to see
it was all a big, fat lie.

494
00:23:09,526 --> 00:23:12,327
Look, there's a lot more
involved before we can arrest.

495
00:23:12,398 --> 00:23:16,168
She was killed at his door.
Who else could've done it?

496
00:23:16,239 --> 00:23:18,607
It's because he's
a big shot, isn't it?

497
00:23:19,044 --> 00:23:24,419
What's the use? Governments,
they're all the same.

498
00:23:25,591 --> 00:23:26,592
(DOOR OPENS)

499
00:23:32,404 --> 00:23:35,740
I know I said I liked a good fight,
but taking on an entire government

500
00:23:35,810 --> 00:23:37,302
is not quite what I meant.

501
00:23:37,380 --> 00:23:39,350
Chen is a lower level diplomat.

502
00:23:39,418 --> 00:23:43,323
If he did commit this murder, I don't
think China would go to the mat for him.

503
00:23:43,392 --> 00:23:44,917
I was talking about
our government.

504
00:23:44,995 --> 00:23:47,831
Another enemy is the last thing
this country needs right now.

505
00:23:47,901 --> 00:23:49,871
What the hell, Helen
Quan's just one person.

506
00:23:49,938 --> 00:23:52,374
There's a billion more
where she came from.

507
00:23:52,878 --> 00:23:54,073
I'll ignore that.

508
00:23:54,313 --> 00:23:56,408
Since when do we turn the
other cheek just because

509
00:23:56,484 --> 00:23:58,716
a couple of international
feathers might get ruffled?

510
00:23:58,788 --> 00:24:01,224
I don't think that we would
hesitate to prosecute Mr. Chen

511
00:24:01,294 --> 00:24:03,491
if he was a visiting
official from New Jersey.

512
00:24:03,798 --> 00:24:05,859
Are you two quite done?

513
00:24:06,370 --> 00:24:10,640
First off, we don't have to worry about
our visiting officials in New Jersey

514
00:24:10,711 --> 00:24:13,706
being whisked off in retaliation
in the middle of the night

515
00:24:13,952 --> 00:24:16,252
to dungeons never to be
heard from again.

516
00:24:16,556 --> 00:24:18,958
Secondly, our commercial
interests in Newark

517
00:24:19,028 --> 00:24:22,330
might not suddenly find themselves
taxed out of business or

518
00:24:22,402 --> 00:24:25,396
closed down permanently
with no recourse.

519
00:24:25,473 --> 00:24:28,913
So the law is the law unless enforcing
it causes some collateral damage?

520
00:24:29,548 --> 00:24:34,422
That lady outside in the blindfold, she's
got a scale in her left hand, Serena.

521
00:24:34,758 --> 00:24:37,286
Yeah, and it's the scale
ofjustice, not pragmatism.

522
00:24:37,364 --> 00:24:39,994
Well, sometimes you can't
have one without the other.

523
00:24:40,069 --> 00:24:43,064
Especially when Pennington
Cleese is across the aisle.

524
00:24:44,745 --> 00:24:46,578
Your old firm.

525
00:24:47,049 --> 00:24:48,951
Representing my old client.

526
00:24:49,053 --> 00:24:51,046
The whole country
of China was your client?

527
00:24:51,124 --> 00:24:53,390
Up to 10 million
a year in billings.

528
00:24:53,495 --> 00:24:55,522
So, will there be
some kind of conflict here?

529
00:24:55,599 --> 00:24:58,969
Chen wasn't even in this country
when I represented them.

530
00:24:59,039 --> 00:25:01,567
But... JACK: Don't even
think about it, Arthur.

531
00:25:01,644 --> 00:25:02,645
SERENA: What?

532
00:25:02,713 --> 00:25:04,443
Arthur was about
to suggest that we transfer

533
00:25:04,517 --> 00:25:06,179
this case to
another jurisdiction.

534
00:25:06,420 --> 00:25:08,891
Well, it would prevent
a hell of a migraine.

535
00:25:09,192 --> 00:25:10,193
Take an Aspirin.

536
00:25:10,261 --> 00:25:12,026
I was referring to your head.

537
00:25:15,271 --> 00:25:16,830
You think I can't win this.

538
00:25:17,175 --> 00:25:19,543
Nothing personal,
but Pennington Cleese

539
00:25:19,613 --> 00:25:21,708
has a lot more
money and manpower.

540
00:25:22,852 --> 00:25:24,047
Where you going?

541
00:25:24,121 --> 00:25:25,487
To convene a grand jury.

542
00:25:30,935 --> 00:25:34,374
You don't understand. We were
better off than most families

543
00:25:34,442 --> 00:25:37,937
and we would be considered
living in poverty over here.

544
00:25:38,015 --> 00:25:40,316
Is that what drew people
to the Falun Gong?

545
00:25:40,420 --> 00:25:42,150
It makes them search
for something.

546
00:25:42,223 --> 00:25:44,888
Some kind of happiness and life.

547
00:25:44,962 --> 00:25:46,590
You don't sound
like you approve.

548
00:25:47,233 --> 00:25:48,896
I hate them.

549
00:25:48,970 --> 00:25:51,167
None of this
would've happened if...

550
00:25:52,844 --> 00:25:55,315
JACK: Please continue,
Miss Quan.

551
00:25:57,587 --> 00:26:01,026
Helen told me two
or three years ago

552
00:26:01,193 --> 00:26:03,892
the police beat up
members of Falun Gong.

553
00:26:04,433 --> 00:26:07,599
Our mom then joined a group of
others to protest in Beijing.

554
00:26:07,707 --> 00:26:10,269
What did Helen tell you
happened after that?

555
00:26:10,411 --> 00:26:14,112
The Chinese government doesn't exactly
approve of civil disobedience.

556
00:26:14,319 --> 00:26:17,758
Cops raided the houses of anyone
in connection with Falun Gong

557
00:26:17,826 --> 00:26:19,887
and threw them into
detention camps.

558
00:26:20,465 --> 00:26:22,161
Helen called them prisons.

559
00:26:22,702 --> 00:26:25,572
And was your mother one
of those taken prisoner?

560
00:26:28,113 --> 00:26:32,520
Helen said she hid in the closet when
they dragged Mom out by her hair.

561
00:26:33,223 --> 00:26:35,819
JACK: When was the last
time you saw Helen?

562
00:26:37,565 --> 00:26:39,694
The day she died.

563
00:26:39,802 --> 00:26:44,368
She didn't really understand. She thought
that if she could just talk to Mr. Chen...

564
00:26:46,950 --> 00:26:49,386
I knew that would be
a waste of time,

565
00:26:50,623 --> 00:26:53,117
but that doesn't mean
she had to die.

566
00:26:55,967 --> 00:27:00,271
The government started a full-out
campaign to suppress and destroy

567
00:27:00,409 --> 00:27:02,310
Falun Gong permanently.

568
00:27:02,412 --> 00:27:06,911
Thousands were rounded up like cattle
and shipped off to detention centers

569
00:27:06,989 --> 00:27:08,822
for reeducation.

570
00:27:08,959 --> 00:27:09,960
Meaning?

571
00:27:10,028 --> 00:27:14,969
As I understand it, they were beaten,
tortured, committed to insane asylums.

572
00:27:15,305 --> 00:27:17,275
JACK: But they
weren't insane?

573
00:27:17,643 --> 00:27:19,134
They had faith.

574
00:27:19,446 --> 00:27:22,907
The government only wants the rest of
the population to think they're insane.

575
00:27:24,022 --> 00:27:26,015
Why did Miss Quan come to you?

576
00:27:26,661 --> 00:27:29,359
She wanted me to help
get her mother released.

577
00:27:29,432 --> 00:27:31,766
Of course, I had
no power to do that,

578
00:27:31,836 --> 00:27:35,401
but I did find two Federal
statutes that allow civil action

579
00:27:35,511 --> 00:27:39,747
to be brought against those who commit
certain human rights violations abroad.

580
00:27:39,819 --> 00:27:41,185
As former mayor of Tianjin,

581
00:27:41,255 --> 00:27:44,751
Mr. Chen was a potential defendant
in one of these actions.

582
00:27:44,829 --> 00:27:47,299
So on behalf of Miss
Quan, you sued him?

583
00:27:47,434 --> 00:27:48,435
That is correct.

584
00:27:48,502 --> 00:27:52,442
And if you were successful in this
action, what would happen to Mr. Chen?

585
00:27:52,510 --> 00:27:56,450
There probably would have been money
damages awarded to Miss Quan.

586
00:27:56,618 --> 00:27:58,747
Mr. Chen would have been
recalled to China.

587
00:27:58,823 --> 00:28:00,656
But what my client
really wanted,

588
00:28:01,060 --> 00:28:03,360
what all practitioners
of Falun Gong want,

589
00:28:03,431 --> 00:28:06,460
is for the general public to
be made aware of their plight.

590
00:28:06,537 --> 00:28:09,805
Then maybe world opinion would
help sway the Chinese government.

591
00:28:11,614 --> 00:28:14,051
I drive car
for Mr. Chen.

592
00:28:14,420 --> 00:28:16,947
JACK: And you've been
doing this for how long?

593
00:28:19,028 --> 00:28:23,834
Two years in this country.
Before that, in China.

594
00:28:24,005 --> 00:28:27,136
Do you remember the night
Miss Quan was murdered?

595
00:28:27,946 --> 00:28:29,539
I didn't know.

596
00:28:29,616 --> 00:28:32,986
I thought she set
fire on herself.

597
00:28:33,257 --> 00:28:35,193
Sacrifice.

598
00:28:35,428 --> 00:28:38,923
Can you tell us where
Mr. Chen was that evening?

599
00:28:39,067 --> 00:28:40,593
YUEN: At consulate.

600
00:28:41,105 --> 00:28:43,371
What time did he
leave the consulate?

601
00:28:44,144 --> 00:28:48,244
Mr. Chen not go out.
He stay at consulate.

602
00:28:49,621 --> 00:28:51,181
For the whole evening?

603
00:28:52,294 --> 00:28:53,295
Yes.

604
00:28:55,800 --> 00:29:02,041
Didn't you tell the police officers
that you drove Mr. Chen someplace else?

605
00:29:02,747 --> 00:29:07,051
I take Mr. Chen to consulate,
then take him home.

606
00:29:07,289 --> 00:29:09,282
Nothing else.

607
00:29:11,498 --> 00:29:13,559
Do you know what
perjury is, Mr. Yuen?

608
00:29:15,239 --> 00:29:17,300
I tell truth.

609
00:29:22,385 --> 00:29:24,856
I could put you in jail
right now, Mr. Yuen.

610
00:29:25,391 --> 00:29:26,860
I not lie.

611
00:29:27,095 --> 00:29:30,534
Then you committed obstruction
when you lied to the police.

612
00:29:30,601 --> 00:29:32,901
Police?
Crime, Mr. Yuen.

613
00:29:32,972 --> 00:29:37,208
You can't lie to the police or
the grand jury in this country.

614
00:29:37,282 --> 00:29:39,114
America?
Forget it, Jack.

615
00:29:39,184 --> 00:29:40,311
No, I will not.

616
00:29:40,387 --> 00:29:41,651
Can't you see that he's scared?

617
00:29:41,890 --> 00:29:44,588
SERENA: Who knows what will happen to
him if he turns on a ranking official.

618
00:29:44,663 --> 00:29:46,188
That's his problem, not mine.

619
00:29:46,332 --> 00:29:49,327
I'm sure the grand jury knew
exactly what he was doing.

620
00:29:50,473 --> 00:29:52,500
For his sake, they better.

621
00:29:53,746 --> 00:29:56,377
Okay, go?

622
00:30:01,996 --> 00:30:04,729
So? They just started
deliberating.

623
00:30:05,135 --> 00:30:06,330
Are they just there
for the free lunch

624
00:30:06,404 --> 00:30:07,873
or is there actually
something to argue about?

625
00:30:07,941 --> 00:30:09,637
Chen's driver lied.

626
00:30:10,579 --> 00:30:11,979
Enter one alibi.

627
00:30:12,049 --> 00:30:15,647
Which was contradicted by
the call girl, but who knows?

628
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,621
Did I ever tell you about
Howard Pincham?

629
00:30:19,931 --> 00:30:22,026
He was my right-hand man
at Pennington.

630
00:30:22,570 --> 00:30:25,736
My guess, he's going to be
opposing counsel in this affair.

631
00:30:26,110 --> 00:30:30,107
We can't afford even the appearance
of conflict here, Arthur.

632
00:30:30,184 --> 00:30:33,088
Where do the canons say a couple
of pals can't shoot the breeze?

633
00:30:34,091 --> 00:30:36,927
So, back in the days when
I got paid for working,

634
00:30:37,164 --> 00:30:38,895
the Chinese government
invited me,

635
00:30:38,968 --> 00:30:42,168
as their counsel, to visit
their beautiful country.

636
00:30:42,241 --> 00:30:45,942
The only problem is I'm what
the kids today call a homeboy.

637
00:30:46,416 --> 00:30:47,475
I like to stay home.

638
00:30:48,053 --> 00:30:50,046
So you sent Howard Pincham?

639
00:30:50,223 --> 00:30:53,161
Best perk he ever got.
He spent the last six months

640
00:30:53,229 --> 00:30:55,756
of '99 touring
the country in style.

641
00:30:56,034 --> 00:30:57,035
(DOOR OPENING)

642
00:30:57,136 --> 00:31:00,803
Yup, except for a wicked
case of Mao's Revenge,

643
00:31:00,944 --> 00:31:03,312
old Howie had a wonderful time.

644
00:31:03,382 --> 00:31:04,407
How'd we do?

645
00:31:04,484 --> 00:31:07,047
It may have been the quickest
indictment in history.

646
00:31:07,123 --> 00:31:09,423
Ah. Now the fun begins.

647
00:31:13,268 --> 00:31:15,761
Ichiro, on Seattle, led
the league in batting.

648
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,742
Ichiro, and he's Japanese.

649
00:31:17,810 --> 00:31:18,971
Uh, Chan Ho...

650
00:31:19,046 --> 00:31:20,447
No, he's Korean.

651
00:31:20,616 --> 00:31:23,816
All right, what about the 7'6"
center Texas just imported?

652
00:31:23,889 --> 00:31:26,587
Okay, but we'll see what he
does against Shaq in the post.

653
00:31:26,660 --> 00:31:28,562
All I'm saying is...
Hold that thought.

654
00:31:31,470 --> 00:31:33,235
Excuse me, I have a very
important meeting to go to.

655
00:31:33,307 --> 00:31:34,866
Hey, you just read my mind.

656
00:31:34,943 --> 00:31:37,380
You got the next
25-to-life off, pal.

657
00:31:37,449 --> 00:31:40,215
Li Chen, you're under arrest
for the murder of Helen Quan.

658
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:41,653
Call the lawyer, Yuen.

659
00:31:41,757 --> 00:31:44,353
I guess you don't have to read
him the rest of the speech, Ed.

660
00:31:46,032 --> 00:31:49,938
"Docket number 3-2-4-4-4
People v. Li Chen.

661
00:31:50,007 --> 00:31:51,703
"One count of Murder
in the First Degree."

662
00:31:51,776 --> 00:31:53,302
How does your client plead?

663
00:31:53,580 --> 00:31:54,581
He doesn't.

664
00:31:54,949 --> 00:31:55,950
JUDGE: Excuse me?

665
00:31:56,653 --> 00:31:58,315
Mr. Chen has
consular immunity.

666
00:31:58,423 --> 00:32:01,417
It was improper for these charges to
have been brought against him at all.

667
00:32:01,529 --> 00:32:03,589
I demand that you
release him immediately.

668
00:32:03,667 --> 00:32:05,260
You know, I'd love to,
Mr. Pincham,

669
00:32:05,336 --> 00:32:07,772
but your client's charged with
murder, not a parking ticket.

670
00:32:08,075 --> 00:32:09,907
Your sarcasm offends
me, Your Honor.

671
00:32:09,979 --> 00:32:12,461
Then go back to the white-collar
world where people say "please"

672
00:32:12,483 --> 00:32:14,042
before they screw you
to the wall.

673
00:32:14,119 --> 00:32:16,241
Now, you've got until "three"
to give me a plea. One...

674
00:32:16,291 --> 00:32:18,021
Not Guilty, Your Honor.

675
00:32:18,094 --> 00:32:21,191
With the stipulation on the record
that this is not an implicit

676
00:32:21,300 --> 00:32:23,828
submission to
this court's jurisdiction.

677
00:32:23,906 --> 00:32:25,773
You know, Mr. Chen, your
attorney's worth every penny

678
00:32:25,843 --> 00:32:27,106
he's picking from your pocket.

679
00:32:27,212 --> 00:32:29,842
Your Honor, under the circumstances,
the risk of flight is high...

680
00:32:29,917 --> 00:32:30,907
Save your breath, Counselor.

681
00:32:30,986 --> 00:32:32,580
Defendant is remanded
without bail.

682
00:32:32,656 --> 00:32:33,657
(GAVEL BANGS)

683
00:33:15,373 --> 00:33:16,500
You should have seen them, Jack.

684
00:33:16,575 --> 00:33:19,672
Talk about weird. They were just
frozen there, like statues.

685
00:33:19,748 --> 00:33:22,048
In this country,
weird's allowed.

686
00:33:25,659 --> 00:33:27,128
Howard Pincham.
Pleasure.

687
00:33:27,496 --> 00:33:29,489
Do you really think
he's necessary?

688
00:33:29,567 --> 00:33:32,003
Your client committed
a serious crime.

689
00:33:32,071 --> 00:33:34,907
Well, even in China they require
a little evidence of guilt.

690
00:33:35,144 --> 00:33:38,606
He lied to the police about Miss
Quan's lawsuit and his alibi.

691
00:33:38,752 --> 00:33:41,918
And Moses lied to his people when
he said, "We're almost there."

692
00:33:42,025 --> 00:33:43,824
You can do better
than that, Mr. Pincham.

693
00:33:43,962 --> 00:33:48,733
I'm just saying that sometimes there's a
very good reason to stretch the truth.

694
00:33:49,205 --> 00:33:50,730
I lied about the lawsuit because

695
00:33:50,808 --> 00:33:54,339
I knew it would make me look like
I had motive to kill Miss Quan.

696
00:33:54,416 --> 00:33:56,214
Guess what, Mr. Chen. It does.

697
00:33:56,285 --> 00:33:57,618
SERENA:
And the alibi?

698
00:33:57,688 --> 00:33:59,590
I was at the consulate.

699
00:34:00,093 --> 00:34:04,090
You know, in China these people would be
in prison because they are criminals.

700
00:34:04,201 --> 00:34:06,501
Because they happen to believe
in something you don't.

701
00:34:07,307 --> 00:34:11,007
Because they sabotaged an
entire communications system,

702
00:34:11,282 --> 00:34:13,752
taking over
a satellite in China.

703
00:34:13,820 --> 00:34:17,885
Because they brainwash innocents
into cutting their bellies open,

704
00:34:17,961 --> 00:34:20,865
looking for Falun,
the wheel of law.

705
00:34:21,602 --> 00:34:25,541
The bottom line, Mr. McCoy, the girl's
lawsuit was, at best, frivolous

706
00:34:25,609 --> 00:34:27,511
and at worst, unconstitutional.

707
00:34:27,580 --> 00:34:32,420
It's like suing you in Sicily
for convicting John Gotti here.

708
00:34:32,823 --> 00:34:36,057
Either way, I don't think Mr.
Chen or his friends back home

709
00:34:36,130 --> 00:34:38,157
would want the world
looking their way.

710
00:34:38,234 --> 00:34:40,837
I'm sure you're aware that I could
go into court tomorrow and argue

711
00:34:40,906 --> 00:34:42,602
that this whole thing should
be dismissed because

712
00:34:42,676 --> 00:34:46,308
Mr. Chen's diplomatic status
renders him immune to prosecution.

713
00:34:46,383 --> 00:34:49,355
Only for acts that fall within the
scope of his official duties.

714
00:34:49,422 --> 00:34:51,050
I don't think murder counts.

715
00:34:51,126 --> 00:34:55,396
I said I could go into court and argue
the motion. I didn't say I would win.

716
00:34:55,468 --> 00:34:57,802
But you'd keep us busy
drafting a brief.

717
00:34:57,872 --> 00:35:00,639
And after that you could respond
to my motion to change venue

718
00:35:00,711 --> 00:35:01,804
to Federal court.

719
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,646
Of course, we'd be willing
to save the cost and hassle

720
00:35:04,718 --> 00:35:06,551
of going to trial
by discussing a plea.

721
00:35:06,656 --> 00:35:08,991
For what? Mr. Chen
didn't kill that girl.

722
00:35:12,234 --> 00:35:16,139
You know, Mr. Chen, I've been
thinking of traveling to China.

723
00:35:16,442 --> 00:35:17,637
I'm very happy for you...

724
00:35:17,711 --> 00:35:20,204
Of course, I'd go to Beijing,
but I'd wanna see more.

725
00:35:20,282 --> 00:35:22,514
Would your hometown
be of any interest?

726
00:35:23,355 --> 00:35:25,222
Well, Tianjin
is a beautiful city.

727
00:35:25,292 --> 00:35:27,694
But would an American
appreciate its beauty?

728
00:35:28,465 --> 00:35:30,697
Well, Mr. Pincham thought so.
Stop.

729
00:35:32,940 --> 00:35:34,671
You visited Tianjin, did you?

730
00:35:35,111 --> 00:35:36,705
That has no bearing
on this case.

731
00:35:36,781 --> 00:35:37,806
On the contrary.

732
00:35:37,883 --> 00:35:40,787
If we go to trial, I could
call you as a witness

733
00:35:40,856 --> 00:35:43,122
to testify about
the detention camps,

734
00:35:43,194 --> 00:35:45,357
or lack thereof, whatever
the case may be.

735
00:35:45,431 --> 00:35:50,373
That puts you... No, that puts your entire
firm in a precarious legal position.

736
00:35:50,775 --> 00:35:52,870
Serena, why don't you
start drafting a brief

737
00:35:52,946 --> 00:35:55,349
to have Mr. Pincham's
law firm disqualified?

738
00:35:55,418 --> 00:35:56,419
This is ridiculous.

739
00:35:56,487 --> 00:35:58,684
Perhaps. But look
at all those fees

740
00:35:58,758 --> 00:36:01,126
your firm will lose
if a judge agrees with me.

741
00:36:05,537 --> 00:36:09,739
"The fee comes first." It's the motto
of every Wall Street litigator.

742
00:36:09,812 --> 00:36:13,217
What are the odds that Pincham will
recuse the firm from this case?

743
00:36:13,286 --> 00:36:17,248
What are the odds that an elf will pop
out of my desk and spit cider in my ear?

744
00:36:18,195 --> 00:36:20,563
At Pennington, the only thing
worse than losing a case

745
00:36:20,634 --> 00:36:25,200
is losing a client, especially one
with seven zeros in the year-end bill.

746
00:36:25,543 --> 00:36:27,570
So I wasted my breath.
No.

747
00:36:27,647 --> 00:36:29,344
Right about now,
I figure that Pincham

748
00:36:29,417 --> 00:36:31,546
and twelve of his partners
are squeezed into

749
00:36:31,621 --> 00:36:35,185
a visiting room at Rikers trying to
convince Mr. Chen to cut a deal.

750
00:36:35,763 --> 00:36:37,630
Let's hope he listens.

751
00:36:38,736 --> 00:36:41,605
You know, Arthur, some people might
interpret what you told me as...

752
00:36:41,675 --> 00:36:43,109
And they would be wrong.

753
00:36:50,158 --> 00:36:51,353
(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING)

754
00:36:51,427 --> 00:36:52,827
PINCHAM: Get you a refill?

755
00:36:52,896 --> 00:36:53,955
Howard!

756
00:36:54,031 --> 00:36:56,730
I didn't think they let Harvard
men in here unescorted.

757
00:36:57,037 --> 00:36:59,200
I'm meeting O'Keefe for dinner.

758
00:36:59,275 --> 00:37:01,803
Did you see this? Second
Circuit reversed Barsky.

759
00:37:04,585 --> 00:37:06,748
I could have you disbarred
for this, Arthur.

760
00:37:07,324 --> 00:37:09,055
For having a drink?

761
00:37:09,128 --> 00:37:11,621
You told McCoy
I visited Tianjin.

762
00:37:12,568 --> 00:37:15,904
Just because you left the firm doesn't mean
you can disclose confidential information

763
00:37:15,974 --> 00:37:17,374
about my dealings with clients.

764
00:37:18,212 --> 00:37:21,082
If you recall, I skipped
your home movies of that trip.

765
00:37:21,151 --> 00:37:23,644
Splitting hairs doesn't
become you, Arthur.

766
00:37:24,558 --> 00:37:27,291
We'll just have to see what
the ethics committee thinks.

767
00:37:28,299 --> 00:37:29,528
Unless, of course...

768
00:37:29,601 --> 00:37:32,903
Are you trying to extort
a deal out of me, Howard?

769
00:37:32,974 --> 00:37:34,944
A proposal, that's all.

770
00:37:35,813 --> 00:37:39,685
Suppose I turn my back
on this Bar Association thing

771
00:37:39,888 --> 00:37:43,156
and you agree to send
Mr. Chen back to China.

772
00:37:43,728 --> 00:37:46,997
So he can be tried for
murder by his own people.

773
00:37:47,069 --> 00:37:49,665
Exactly by a culture
that understands him.

774
00:37:49,940 --> 00:37:50,999
Sounds good.

775
00:37:51,076 --> 00:37:52,875
Ah. I knew you'd
be reasonable.

776
00:37:53,481 --> 00:37:57,888
Reasonable but not stupid. Back home,
Chen might receive a medal of honor

777
00:37:57,956 --> 00:37:59,254
for murdering Helen Quan.

778
00:37:59,894 --> 00:38:02,991
You love this, don't you?
Squeezing me into a corner.

779
00:38:03,734 --> 00:38:05,226
Just doing my job.

780
00:38:05,304 --> 00:38:09,004
Only Chen didn't kill that girl and you
don't have any evidence to prove he did.

781
00:38:09,078 --> 00:38:10,944
And he doesn't have an alibi.

782
00:38:11,015 --> 00:38:14,112
We know he wasn't feeling
particularly frisky that night.

783
00:38:14,288 --> 00:38:17,055
If you're talking about the call
girls, that's not Chen's thing.

784
00:38:17,127 --> 00:38:18,128
What is?

785
00:38:18,797 --> 00:38:23,033
A dry vodka martini from the
Beekman Hotel around the corner.

786
00:38:26,412 --> 00:38:30,546
The bartender at the Beekman showed me Chen's
credit card receipts for three drinks.

787
00:38:32,257 --> 00:38:33,919
That would be a
pretty good alibi.

788
00:38:33,993 --> 00:38:36,590
Then why didn't he just tell
us that in the first place?

789
00:38:36,799 --> 00:38:39,771
Who knows? Maybe he thought somehow that
it would lead back to the call girls,

790
00:38:39,838 --> 00:38:42,138
which might embarrass his
important business friends.

791
00:38:42,242 --> 00:38:45,043
Yeah, but we already knew
about the call girls, Jack.

792
00:38:45,248 --> 00:38:47,150
Why would he risk
going to jail for that?

793
00:38:48,188 --> 00:38:50,920
Maybe he believes the American
justice system actually works.

794
00:38:50,993 --> 00:38:55,195
Chen knows he didn't kill Helen Quan, so
what's one little lie to protect friends?

795
00:38:55,301 --> 00:38:57,772
Yeah. There's a lot of that
going around in this case.

796
00:38:59,677 --> 00:39:01,043
The driver.

797
00:39:01,113 --> 00:39:02,638
That's who I'm referring to.

798
00:39:02,715 --> 00:39:08,387
He told Briscoe and Green that he waited for
Chen outside the call girls' apartment.

799
00:39:08,460 --> 00:39:11,489
But if that were true,
he would have seen Chen leave.

800
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:12,795
As I was saying.

801
00:39:12,869 --> 00:39:15,396
Then he wouldn't have told us about
the call girls in the first place.

802
00:39:15,474 --> 00:39:17,967
He would have said Chen
had a drink at the hotel.

803
00:39:18,079 --> 00:39:21,210
He didn't know Chen wasn't
where he was supposed to be.

804
00:39:21,285 --> 00:39:23,187
Do you think he's
covering for himself?

805
00:39:26,629 --> 00:39:28,622
I'm gonna talk to him.
Not yet.

806
00:39:29,635 --> 00:39:32,300
I knew it. As soon as
they sold to them people.

807
00:39:32,674 --> 00:39:35,008
You mean Mr. Chen?
Damn communists.

808
00:39:35,112 --> 00:39:36,706
Next thing, Osama
will set up shop.

809
00:39:36,782 --> 00:39:38,216
What's happening
to this country?

810
00:39:38,318 --> 00:39:40,151
Put a fence around
the island is what I say.

811
00:39:40,924 --> 00:39:41,949
Yeah, I hear ya.

812
00:39:42,026 --> 00:39:43,928
Um, I gotta ask you a question
or two about the night

813
00:39:43,996 --> 00:39:45,521
that girl was killed.

814
00:39:45,599 --> 00:39:48,282
I already told the cops I didn't see
no strangers enter the building.

815
00:39:48,305 --> 00:39:50,468
I know, but what
I'd really like to know

816
00:39:50,542 --> 00:39:52,944
is if you saw his
assistant here that night.

817
00:39:53,381 --> 00:39:54,474
You mean Schwarzenegger?

818
00:39:54,550 --> 00:39:55,575
Excuse me?

819
00:39:55,652 --> 00:39:57,280
It's always, "I'll be back."

820
00:39:57,355 --> 00:39:58,997
Like Arnold wouldn't
crush him like a bug.

821
00:39:59,559 --> 00:40:00,755
And that night?

822
00:40:00,829 --> 00:40:03,766
Yeah, he was here, maybe an
hour, maybe a little more.

823
00:40:03,834 --> 00:40:07,035
Then he went out to get the boss
with another "I'll be back."

824
00:40:10,648 --> 00:40:13,312
We want to talk to you
about your boss.

825
00:40:15,257 --> 00:40:17,124
Mr. Chen is great man.

826
00:40:17,461 --> 00:40:18,987
For a murderer.

827
00:40:20,267 --> 00:40:21,861
He no kill lady.

828
00:40:22,204 --> 00:40:25,734
Maybe not with his own hands,
but in this country,

829
00:40:26,612 --> 00:40:28,309
if he told you to do it,

830
00:40:29,251 --> 00:40:31,483
it's just the same
as if he did it himself.

831
00:40:32,925 --> 00:40:34,451
He not tell me.

832
00:40:36,164 --> 00:40:37,758
No, I not kill.

833
00:40:38,135 --> 00:40:41,437
But you were the only one in Mr.
Chen's apartment that night.

834
00:40:42,243 --> 00:40:44,440
No. I wait outside girls.

835
00:40:45,850 --> 00:40:49,312
It's time to stop
lying, Mr. Yuen.

836
00:40:54,634 --> 00:40:56,604
Mr. Chen busy for hours.

837
00:40:57,439 --> 00:40:59,636
SERENA: So you went
to his apartment?

838
00:41:02,682 --> 00:41:04,949
Mr. Chen have satellite TV.

839
00:41:10,632 --> 00:41:12,864
Why she want to send
Mr. Chen home?

840
00:41:13,771 --> 00:41:16,037
Why she want judge
to send him home?

841
00:41:16,710 --> 00:41:21,276
I tell her, "Be nice to Mr. Chen." I beg
her not to have judge send him home.

842
00:41:22,054 --> 00:41:23,420
But she refused.

843
00:41:23,490 --> 00:41:25,892
She say she want to talk
to him. "Right now!"

844
00:41:26,562 --> 00:41:29,227
I say, "No. Chen not home."

845
00:41:29,769 --> 00:41:35,178
Lady bang on door and scream at me and
say, "Where is Chen? Where is Chen?"

846
00:41:36,649 --> 00:41:38,812
That must have made you angry.

847
00:41:38,887 --> 00:41:41,119
Chen good man.
He not kill people.

848
00:41:41,525 --> 00:41:45,124
SERENA: So you killed her so that
she would leave Mr. Chen alone.

849
00:41:45,933 --> 00:41:48,096
She not believe Chen good man.

850
00:41:50,242 --> 00:41:54,341
She say judge send him home.
And I don't want to go home.

851
00:41:55,352 --> 00:41:57,653
JACK: And if Chen
were sued successfully,

852
00:41:58,157 --> 00:42:02,188
he'd be forced to return to China
and you'd have to go back with him.

853
00:42:04,036 --> 00:42:07,167
And you'd do anything
not to have to be sent back.

854
00:42:09,613 --> 00:42:13,347
America have free.

855
00:42:17,495 --> 00:42:19,124
I stay in America.

856
00:42:22,605 --> 00:42:24,939
Sally Xiao's gonna
represent him pro bono.

857
00:42:25,611 --> 00:42:27,513
My guess is she'll take man one.

858
00:42:27,681 --> 00:42:30,551
Mr. Yuen wanted freedom badly
enough to kill for it.

859
00:42:30,788 --> 00:42:33,122
Now he's gonna spend the next
eight-and-a-third-to-25

860
00:42:33,192 --> 00:42:34,387
in Attica.

861
00:42:34,462 --> 00:42:37,433
Makes you realize why people
in China are finding religion.

862
00:42:37,835 --> 00:42:45,537
Makes me glad
I turned down that trip.
