1
00:00:02,654 --> 00:00:03,698
So what are you going to do?
2
00:00:03,785 --> 00:00:05,439
- About.
- Rachel? Chunhua?
3
00:00:05,526 --> 00:00:06,484
Look, Jenna..
4
00:00:08,094 --> 00:00:09,313
Whoa!
5
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:11,402
Malcolm and I
are going on a date.
6
00:00:11,489 --> 00:00:13,186
Oh, give me a break.
7
00:00:15,667 --> 00:00:17,625
- My client lied to me.
- Defendants do that.
8
00:00:17,712 --> 00:00:18,931
Especially with their lawyers.
9
00:00:19,018 --> 00:00:20,367
You know my client
killed his wife.
10
00:00:20,454 --> 00:00:22,543
- Certainly, I know it.
- Alright. That's it.
11
00:00:22,630 --> 00:00:25,024
This case is hereby
declared a mistrial.
12
00:00:25,111 --> 00:00:27,548
- You have to fight, Harry.
- Fight for what?
13
00:00:27,635 --> 00:00:30,464
Or I could keep representing
drug dealers and murderers.
14
00:00:30,551 --> 00:00:31,770
Are you serious?
15
00:00:31,857 --> 00:00:34,512
My moral responsibility
was to distort
16
00:00:34,599 --> 00:00:36,383
'and manipulate
the actual facts'
17
00:00:36,470 --> 00:00:38,864
so far beyond recognition
18
00:00:38,951 --> 00:00:40,866
as to put a murderer
back on the street.
19
00:00:40,953 --> 00:00:41,910
It's disgusting.
20
00:00:58,275 --> 00:01:00,581
I think it was Oscar Wilde
who said
21
00:01:00,668 --> 00:01:05,064
"We tend to regret more
the mistakes we didn't make."
22
00:01:05,151 --> 00:01:08,546
Of course, Oscar never had
the pleasure of..
23
00:01:08,633 --> 00:01:10,591
Marty Slumach.
24
00:01:10,678 --> 00:01:13,638
Oh, Harry,
it's so good to see you.
25
00:01:13,725 --> 00:01:14,856
I'm so sorry
to hear you got fired.
26
00:01:14,943 --> 00:01:16,423
It's a terrible thing.
27
00:01:16,510 --> 00:01:18,295
- I came as soon as I heard.
- Oh.
28
00:01:18,382 --> 00:01:20,949
A friend in need
is a friend indeed.
29
00:01:21,036 --> 00:01:22,647
- I live by that.
- Uh-huh.
30
00:01:22,734 --> 00:01:25,215
And what is it you need?
Oh, alright.
31
00:01:25,302 --> 00:01:28,740
Okay. Now that you mention it,
it's a small hiccup.
32
00:01:28,827 --> 00:01:30,916
I'm beginning a trial tomorrow.
Just, uh, armed robbery.
33
00:01:31,003 --> 00:01:33,919
But, it-it seems I got my ticket
pulled for 30 days
34
00:01:34,006 --> 00:01:37,183
a witness-tampering thing,
for which I feel deep remorse.
35
00:01:37,270 --> 00:01:38,837
I'm totally innocent.
36
00:01:38,924 --> 00:01:40,839
Judge says I can still
second-chair
37
00:01:40,926 --> 00:01:42,449
but since I lost my license
38
00:01:42,536 --> 00:01:44,495
I'm gonna need another
attorney to try the case.
39
00:01:44,582 --> 00:01:46,497
- Forget it.
- It's taken me a long time..
40
00:01:46,584 --> 00:01:47,802
To establish a trust here.
41
00:01:47,889 --> 00:01:49,500
Guy was wrongly convicted
once before
42
00:01:49,587 --> 00:01:50,588
He's not a trusting person.
43
00:01:50,675 --> 00:01:52,242
It's a very delicate situation.
44
00:01:52,329 --> 00:01:53,591
Now, you've never been
one to turn your back
45
00:01:53,678 --> 00:01:54,940
on somebody in need,
except for me.
46
00:01:55,027 --> 00:01:57,508
Okay. Look.
That's water over the dam.
47
00:01:57,595 --> 00:01:59,379
I'm begging you.
48
00:01:59,466 --> 00:02:01,947
We're dealing with a
very delicate individual.
49
00:02:05,385 --> 00:02:07,257
'He don't talk. Never.'
50
00:02:07,344 --> 00:02:09,346
Not even to me.
51
00:02:09,433 --> 00:02:11,696
You told me you'd established
a trust with him.
52
00:02:11,783 --> 00:02:13,611
I have. You know,
as much as one can
53
00:02:13,698 --> 00:02:16,266
with a person who don't talk.
54
00:02:16,353 --> 00:02:19,007
- Are we sure he can talk?
- Positive.
55
00:02:19,094 --> 00:02:21,967
Now, he was loud and clear
when he robbed the victim.
56
00:02:22,054 --> 00:02:24,274
I thought you said
he was innocent.
57
00:02:24,361 --> 00:02:25,405
Totally.
58
00:02:27,755 --> 00:02:29,714
Okay, look.
59
00:02:29,801 --> 00:02:31,672
I understand from Mr. Slumach
60
00:02:31,759 --> 00:02:33,500
that you were
convicted once before
61
00:02:33,587 --> 00:02:36,416
on the flimsiest
of evidence, of, um..
62
00:02:36,503 --> 00:02:37,896
What was the previous crime?
63
00:02:37,983 --> 00:02:39,289
Armed robbery.
64
00:02:41,595 --> 00:02:44,555
I also understand
you don't trust lawyers
65
00:02:44,642 --> 00:02:48,036
this despite your deep bond
with Mr. Slumach.
66
00:02:48,123 --> 00:02:50,300
But you need a lawyer
just the same.
67
00:02:50,387 --> 00:02:53,694
If it's gonna be me, I need
you to be honest with me, sir.
68
00:02:53,781 --> 00:02:55,653
Did you commit this robbery?
69
00:03:01,659 --> 00:03:04,749
- What's the difference?
- About 20 years.
70
00:03:04,836 --> 00:03:06,838
I'm already convicted
and you know it.
71
00:03:06,925 --> 00:03:08,318
Okay.
72
00:03:08,405 --> 00:03:09,797
Given that, I'd sleep
a lot better
73
00:03:09,884 --> 00:03:11,234
knowing you did it.
74
00:03:11,321 --> 00:03:13,236
Too bad.
'Cause I didn't.
75
00:03:15,194 --> 00:03:17,152
I didn't.
76
00:03:30,035 --> 00:03:32,951
Hello. Are we looking
for legal advice today?
77
00:03:33,038 --> 00:03:35,823
Or perhaps a new pair
of peep-toes?
78
00:03:35,910 --> 00:03:39,914
Well, I was coming in just
for some legal advice, but..
79
00:03:40,001 --> 00:03:42,656
- Wow.
- I'm attorney Adam Branch.
80
00:03:42,743 --> 00:03:45,833
- May I help you?
- My name is Amanda Knott.
81
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,967
I'm a performer at Chez Paris
on James Street.
82
00:03:49,054 --> 00:03:51,491
- I was just fired.
- Chez Paris?
83
00:03:51,578 --> 00:03:55,930
I love that place.
It is so GaGa.
84
00:03:56,017 --> 00:03:57,541
Why were you fired?
85
00:03:57,628 --> 00:03:59,630
Well, the manager..
86
00:03:59,717 --> 00:04:01,458
...he's also the owner..
87
00:04:01,545 --> 00:04:04,852
...w-we'd been having an affair
for the past six months.
88
00:04:04,939 --> 00:04:08,334
Now he's back with his wife
and suddenly, my act is..
89
00:04:08,421 --> 00:04:09,814
...no longer good enough.
90
00:04:09,901 --> 00:04:13,992
I'm sorry,
but, are you, like..
91
00:04:14,079 --> 00:04:15,210
...a man?
92
00:04:16,516 --> 00:04:17,778
I, uh..
93
00:04:17,865 --> 00:04:19,302
For the file.
94
00:04:19,389 --> 00:04:21,652
- I'm anatomically male, yes.
- Wow.
95
00:04:23,871 --> 00:04:26,265
Is it possible you
were fired for that?
96
00:04:26,352 --> 00:04:28,441
No, I was fired because..
97
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:31,879
...his wife wants me gone.
98
00:04:31,966 --> 00:04:34,839
Okay. And how long
have you been out of work?
99
00:04:34,926 --> 00:04:36,362
My last day is Friday.
100
00:04:36,449 --> 00:04:39,234
Unless you can
somehow change that.
101
00:04:39,322 --> 00:04:40,410
Can you?
102
00:04:43,064 --> 00:04:44,675
Hey. Georgie.
103
00:04:44,762 --> 00:04:47,068
Hey. How are you, my friend?
Georgie, this is Harry Korn.
104
00:04:47,155 --> 00:04:49,157
Harry, this is the handling DA
105
00:04:49,244 --> 00:04:50,681
George Kupcheck.
106
00:04:50,768 --> 00:04:52,291
He's a real character.
107
00:04:52,378 --> 00:04:54,380
Harry's gonna be
handling the defense.
108
00:04:54,467 --> 00:04:56,774
- How you doing?
- Hey, Georgie, listen.
109
00:04:56,861 --> 00:04:58,863
I hate to trade on our
friendship
110
00:04:58,950 --> 00:05:00,517
but if I could just
get a small continuance
111
00:05:00,604 --> 00:05:02,910
I'm thinking what,
a month, tops.
112
00:05:02,997 --> 00:05:05,130
Just, uh, just so Harry
can get caught up to speed.
113
00:05:05,217 --> 00:05:06,392
A continuance?
114
00:05:06,479 --> 00:05:08,220
Are you on drugs?
115
00:05:08,307 --> 00:05:11,528
First of all, we're not friends,
Marty. You turn my stomach.
116
00:05:11,615 --> 00:05:13,747
And secondly, you're not
getting any continuance.
117
00:05:13,834 --> 00:05:15,314
George, I got a little
situation.
118
00:05:15,401 --> 00:05:16,794
Yeah, I know your situation.
119
00:05:16,881 --> 00:05:18,665
You're trying to delay
this as long as you can.
120
00:05:18,752 --> 00:05:20,275
It's what you do.
121
00:05:20,363 --> 00:05:21,929
But I've had it,
and so has the judge.
122
00:05:22,016 --> 00:05:24,192
Which is why he said
no more continuances.
123
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,107
George, I lost my license.
124
00:05:26,194 --> 00:05:28,762
It's a setback, huh? Come on.
These things happen.
125
00:05:28,849 --> 00:05:32,331
Look, I'll give you a
continuance, as will the judge.
126
00:05:32,418 --> 00:05:34,681
But if he stays on
in any capacity at all
127
00:05:34,768 --> 00:05:35,856
if he's anywhere in the room--
128
00:05:35,943 --> 00:05:37,597
I need him in the room,
otherwise--
129
00:05:37,684 --> 00:05:39,643
Then I'll deem you up to speed.
130
00:05:39,730 --> 00:05:42,210
And if you so much as mention
the word continuance
131
00:05:42,297 --> 00:05:44,038
I'll move for sanctions.
132
00:05:57,443 --> 00:06:00,098
They do tryouts during the day.
133
00:06:00,185 --> 00:06:01,534
I suspect, at this very moment
134
00:06:01,621 --> 00:06:03,014
they're auditioning
my replacement.
135
00:06:03,101 --> 00:06:04,885
And where's your boss?
136
00:06:04,972 --> 00:06:06,539
His office is in the back.
137
00:06:06,626 --> 00:06:08,628
'I just want to be clear
on the stated'
138
00:06:08,715 --> 00:06:10,238
criteria for the discharge.
139
00:06:10,325 --> 00:06:12,327
- That's all.
- I believe I was clear.
140
00:06:12,415 --> 00:06:14,373
The termination was
performance related.
141
00:06:14,460 --> 00:06:16,331
Admittedly, it's a very
subjective thing
142
00:06:16,419 --> 00:06:18,116
but one which certainly
falls within the discretion
143
00:06:18,203 --> 00:06:19,552
of a club manager.
144
00:06:19,639 --> 00:06:21,511
Okay, but as I understand it,
she has not only
145
00:06:21,598 --> 00:06:23,382
performed to Mr. Thomas's
satisfaction
146
00:06:23,469 --> 00:06:24,992
'for the last three years'
147
00:06:25,079 --> 00:06:26,429
but she's also been
one of the more
148
00:06:26,516 --> 00:06:28,256
popular acts with patrons.
149
00:06:28,343 --> 00:06:31,129
I guess I would ask
what's changed?
150
00:06:31,216 --> 00:06:32,870
- 'What's changed?'
- I'm sorry.
151
00:06:32,957 --> 00:06:34,393
But I'd like to hear
from Mr. Thomas.
152
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:35,916
I can't allow that.
Come on!
153
00:06:36,003 --> 00:06:37,178
Look, we're offering
your client
154
00:06:37,265 --> 00:06:39,093
a very generous severance.
155
00:06:39,180 --> 00:06:41,182
And I don't think we really
want to go to court, do we?
156
00:06:41,269 --> 00:06:42,401
What's that supposed to mean?
157
00:06:42,488 --> 00:06:44,098
Let's say we do go to trial.
158
00:06:44,185 --> 00:06:45,360
- What do you--
- Mr. Branch.
159
00:06:45,448 --> 00:06:46,666
- Carl.
- No.
160
00:06:46,753 --> 00:06:49,452
I made a mistake.
I had an affair.
161
00:06:49,539 --> 00:06:51,105
I cheated on my wife.
162
00:06:51,192 --> 00:06:53,281
I have two young children
163
00:06:53,368 --> 00:06:54,718
and I would like
to save my marriage.
164
00:06:54,805 --> 00:06:57,634
- Carl.
- I'd like to finish, please.
165
00:06:57,721 --> 00:06:59,505
'Do you really think I should'
166
00:06:59,592 --> 00:07:02,682
keep Amanda in my employ
and-and put my wife
167
00:07:02,769 --> 00:07:05,816
through an agony of..
168
00:07:05,903 --> 00:07:07,295
I mean, does that
make sense to you?
169
00:07:07,382 --> 00:07:08,862
Perhaps not,
but it's hardly fair
170
00:07:08,949 --> 00:07:10,734
to Amanda that she be fired.
171
00:07:10,821 --> 00:07:12,170
I know that,
and that's why I'm trying
172
00:07:12,257 --> 00:07:14,302
to treat her as-as fairly
as possible.
173
00:07:14,389 --> 00:07:16,957
The severance package
we offered is way more--
174
00:07:17,044 --> 00:07:18,393
I just want my job.
175
00:07:18,481 --> 00:07:19,656
If I let you keep your job
176
00:07:19,743 --> 00:07:21,179
my wife will leave me.
177
00:07:21,266 --> 00:07:22,702
That's not a legal
justification.
178
00:07:22,789 --> 00:07:25,836
I'm not talking about the law.
179
00:07:25,923 --> 00:07:27,228
Sometimes..
180
00:07:35,367 --> 00:07:37,238
These are my children,
Mr. Branch.
181
00:07:40,546 --> 00:07:43,288
Now, if you file that lawsuit
182
00:07:43,375 --> 00:07:46,857
they'll not only learn that
their father is unfaithful..
183
00:07:48,989 --> 00:07:50,513
...but that he's..
184
00:07:56,431 --> 00:07:58,521
The destruction you will cause..
185
00:08:01,219 --> 00:08:04,831
I'm trying to be
as fair and humane
186
00:08:04,918 --> 00:08:06,441
'as I can be.'
187
00:08:08,443 --> 00:08:10,315
How 'bout you do the same?
188
00:08:13,666 --> 00:08:17,191
It's just, as I read
the file more carefully
189
00:08:17,278 --> 00:08:19,150
I don't see how we
can possibly win this.
190
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,675
This is why I don't
read files careful.
191
00:08:22,762 --> 00:08:24,459
Blunts my creativity.
192
00:08:24,547 --> 00:08:26,331
Marty.
What's our defense here?
193
00:08:26,418 --> 00:08:28,638
- Client didn't do it.
- But he did do it.
194
00:08:28,725 --> 00:08:31,118
What's more, the victim,
who, on paper
195
00:08:31,205 --> 00:08:34,295
seems to be a very credible guy,
will say so in open court.
196
00:08:34,382 --> 00:08:36,950
We got to somehow trip him up.
You want my pickle?
197
00:08:37,037 --> 00:08:38,952
- Marty!
- Harry.
198
00:08:39,039 --> 00:08:40,519
There's always something
lawyers can do.
199
00:08:40,606 --> 00:08:42,173
It's why people
hate our guts, remember?
200
00:08:42,260 --> 00:08:44,044
Okay, suppose we do win.
201
00:08:44,131 --> 00:08:45,698
Doesn't it bother you putting
202
00:08:45,785 --> 00:08:48,179
dangerous, guilty criminals
back on the street?
203
00:08:48,266 --> 00:08:50,529
I mean, I realize that's
what lawyers often do
204
00:08:50,616 --> 00:08:53,663
but usually with some conflict.
205
00:08:53,750 --> 00:08:56,056
I don't see you experiencing
a flicker of it.
206
00:08:56,143 --> 00:08:57,275
Alright, first of all
207
00:08:57,362 --> 00:08:59,494
Ronald may be innocent,
like he says.
208
00:08:59,582 --> 00:09:01,235
You know, he's got
an alibi witness, you know?
209
00:09:01,322 --> 00:09:03,977
I-I mean, okay,
not a believable one, but..
210
00:09:04,064 --> 00:09:05,936
And second, you're basically
211
00:09:06,023 --> 00:09:07,807
in the same line of work
as I am now
212
00:09:07,894 --> 00:09:09,853
so how do you get to judge?
213
00:09:09,940 --> 00:09:11,811
Well..
214
00:09:11,898 --> 00:09:14,640
...I think that's
what horrifies me.
215
00:09:14,727 --> 00:09:17,208
That I could look in the mirror,
and now see..
216
00:09:17,295 --> 00:09:19,210
What?
217
00:09:19,297 --> 00:09:21,778
My reflection?
218
00:09:21,865 --> 00:09:25,085
Marty, let's face it.
219
00:09:25,172 --> 00:09:27,044
You hardly lead a noble life.
220
00:09:29,350 --> 00:09:31,526
Is this why you left me?
221
00:09:31,614 --> 00:09:34,094
Why, 'cause I'm not
a noble person?
222
00:09:36,270 --> 00:09:37,794
Well..
223
00:09:37,881 --> 00:09:39,752
...in part, yes.
224
00:09:43,756 --> 00:09:46,933
- I'm sorry. That was out of--
- Oh, no.
225
00:09:47,020 --> 00:09:48,979
Let's just focus
on the witness tomorrow, okay?
226
00:09:49,066 --> 00:09:50,545
Like you said, very credible.
227
00:09:50,633 --> 00:09:52,199
You know, he's the prosecution's
whole case.
228
00:09:52,286 --> 00:09:53,810
So, if you don't
trip him up somehow
229
00:09:53,897 --> 00:09:55,202
you can stick a fork
in Ronald Perry.
230
00:09:55,289 --> 00:09:57,248
You know, not to put pressure.
231
00:09:57,335 --> 00:09:59,032
Marty, I didn't mean--
232
00:09:59,119 --> 00:10:00,643
Let's just..
233
00:10:00,730 --> 00:10:02,470
...just focus on the case.
234
00:10:18,617 --> 00:10:20,793
According to the client,
he has an alibi.
235
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,448
I need you to hunt him down.
That's our only chance.
236
00:10:23,535 --> 00:10:26,320
And get Damien to help you.
Tell him no violence.
237
00:10:26,407 --> 00:10:29,106
Just find the guy and bring him
to me. And do it fast.
238
00:10:29,193 --> 00:10:31,499
- The trial starts tomorrow.
- Okay.
239
00:10:31,586 --> 00:10:33,327
- What?
- Nothing.
240
00:10:33,414 --> 00:10:34,372
Don't tell me nothing, Jenna.
241
00:10:34,459 --> 00:10:36,243
You were staring at me funny.
242
00:10:36,330 --> 00:10:38,071
What?
243
00:10:38,158 --> 00:10:40,421
Well, it's not like
it's my business.
244
00:10:40,508 --> 00:10:42,293
But were you and Marty Slumach
245
00:10:42,380 --> 00:10:44,599
ever...together?
246
00:10:44,687 --> 00:10:45,905
Would that be a problem?
247
00:10:45,992 --> 00:10:48,125
No. No.
248
00:10:48,212 --> 00:10:49,213
Clearly, it is.
249
00:10:49,300 --> 00:10:51,302
No, it's not. I got to go.
250
00:10:51,389 --> 00:10:53,130
I told Adam I would meet him
at Chez Paris to listen
251
00:10:53,217 --> 00:10:55,088
- to the man-woman.
- Excuse me?
252
00:10:55,175 --> 00:10:56,873
Adam is representing
a man-woman who got fired
253
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:58,875
by a man-man who had
an affair with him-her
254
00:10:58,962 --> 00:11:02,052
and he-she is one of those
cross-dresser-singer-thingies.
255
00:11:02,139 --> 00:11:03,749
Bye, Malcolm.
Good night, Harry.
256
00:11:05,969 --> 00:11:08,928
Why are you still here?
Go find my alibi.
257
00:11:09,624 --> 00:11:10,713
Sorry.
258
00:11:12,889 --> 00:11:15,326
"Cross-dresser-singer-thingies."
259
00:11:15,413 --> 00:11:16,501
'Whoo!'
260
00:11:21,375 --> 00:11:24,117
Oh...my...God.
261
00:11:24,204 --> 00:11:26,990
- Didn't I tell you?
- I'm a little afraid.
262
00:11:27,077 --> 00:11:29,819
I didn't think this
was allowed in Ohio.
263
00:11:29,906 --> 00:11:30,863
Look, that's her.
She's already on.
264
00:11:30,950 --> 00:11:32,909
'That's her in the middle.'
265
00:11:36,869 --> 00:11:39,263
She's good.
She's really good.
266
00:11:59,631 --> 00:12:00,850
Whoo!
267
00:12:04,070 --> 00:12:05,289
'Whoo!'
268
00:12:08,118 --> 00:12:10,294
Well, I'd come out
of the store around 9:30.
269
00:12:10,381 --> 00:12:12,731
I was carrying a bag.
Was fumbling for my key.
270
00:12:12,818 --> 00:12:14,124
I was a little bit agitated.
271
00:12:14,211 --> 00:12:15,690
Like I said,
I was running late.
272
00:12:15,778 --> 00:12:18,171
Looked up and saw this man
ambling towards me.
273
00:12:18,258 --> 00:12:19,956
At first I, I thought
he was a homeless guy
274
00:12:20,043 --> 00:12:21,348
'just asking me for change.'
275
00:12:21,435 --> 00:12:24,047
I returned my focus
to the car.
276
00:12:24,134 --> 00:12:26,658
Suddenly, I had this
big barrel of a magnum
277
00:12:26,745 --> 00:12:28,703
sticking in my face.
278
00:12:28,791 --> 00:12:30,705
Did you see who was
wielding this weapon?
279
00:12:30,793 --> 00:12:33,578
- That man.
- The defendant.
280
00:12:33,665 --> 00:12:35,928
- Yes.
- Any doubt?
281
00:12:36,015 --> 00:12:37,930
- None.
- Well, did he say anything?
282
00:12:38,017 --> 00:12:40,454
All he said was,
"Watch. Wallet. Now."
283
00:12:40,541 --> 00:12:43,806
And, sir, did you see the
suspect ever again before today?
284
00:12:43,893 --> 00:12:46,112
Uh, yes, I saw him
the following day
285
00:12:46,199 --> 00:12:48,506
in a police lineup, where I
immediately identified him
286
00:12:48,593 --> 00:12:51,117
as the man who'd robbed me
the night before.
287
00:12:51,204 --> 00:12:53,076
The night of the robbery
you told the police
288
00:12:53,163 --> 00:12:54,425
the suspect was very overweight.
289
00:12:54,512 --> 00:12:55,730
- I did.
- 'Next day..'
290
00:12:55,818 --> 00:12:57,515
They called you in
to see a lineup.
291
00:12:57,602 --> 00:12:59,604
Did they indicate that they
thought they had the guy?
292
00:12:59,691 --> 00:13:01,954
They said they'd apprehended a
man who matched the description.
293
00:13:02,041 --> 00:13:03,738
And this is the lineup you saw?
294
00:13:03,826 --> 00:13:04,783
Yeah.
295
00:13:04,870 --> 00:13:06,002
I see exactly one
296
00:13:06,089 --> 00:13:07,438
overweight guy.
297
00:13:07,525 --> 00:13:08,874
The lineup has already
challenged
298
00:13:08,961 --> 00:13:10,745
unsuccessfully in pretrial,
Your Honor.
299
00:13:10,833 --> 00:13:12,138
The objection is overruled.
300
00:13:12,225 --> 00:13:14,532
A little stacked,
don't you think?
301
00:13:14,619 --> 00:13:16,316
One overweight guy?
302
00:13:18,231 --> 00:13:21,060
I imagine you were in shock
having a gun stuck in your face.
303
00:13:21,147 --> 00:13:24,237
My powers of observation
weren't compromised.
304
00:13:24,324 --> 00:13:27,762
Police notes indicate that the
parking lot was not well lit.
305
00:13:27,850 --> 00:13:29,155
Well, he was standing right
in front of me.
306
00:13:29,242 --> 00:13:31,505
- I got a perfect look at him.
- Really?
307
00:13:31,592 --> 00:13:33,203
Because according
to the incident report
308
00:13:33,290 --> 00:13:35,379
when describing him,
you just said
309
00:13:35,466 --> 00:13:37,990
and I quote, "Fat Latino."
310
00:13:38,077 --> 00:13:39,600
No description
of facial features
311
00:13:39,687 --> 00:13:42,125
or clothing,
nothing on height or hair
312
00:13:42,212 --> 00:13:43,822
just, "Fat Latino."
313
00:13:43,909 --> 00:13:45,650
Are you not good on details?
314
00:13:45,737 --> 00:13:47,695
When was the last time you had
a gun stuck in your face?
315
00:13:47,782 --> 00:13:49,306
So you were distracted
by the gun?
316
00:13:49,393 --> 00:13:51,134
Well, I saw his face.
317
00:13:51,221 --> 00:13:53,005
You didn't see the goatee
or the scar?
318
00:13:53,092 --> 00:13:54,746
- It was him.
- 'For the gun..'
319
00:13:54,833 --> 00:13:57,096
You said it appeared
to be a seven-shooter
320
00:13:57,183 --> 00:14:00,056
rubber grip,
stainless-steel barrel.
321
00:14:00,143 --> 00:14:02,058
That's very impressive.
322
00:14:02,145 --> 00:14:05,017
As for the suspect,
"Fat Latino."
323
00:14:05,104 --> 00:14:06,627
It was that man right there.
324
00:14:06,714 --> 00:14:08,629
Do you make room
for the possibility
325
00:14:08,716 --> 00:14:10,066
that after the police
indicated
326
00:14:10,153 --> 00:14:11,763
that they thought
they had the guy
327
00:14:11,850 --> 00:14:13,983
and you then saw one lone
obese man in the lineup--
328
00:14:14,070 --> 00:14:16,028
I wasn't influenced
by the police.
329
00:14:16,115 --> 00:14:17,508
I was not predisposed
in any way.
330
00:14:17,595 --> 00:14:19,205
That is the man who robbed me.
331
00:14:19,292 --> 00:14:21,033
Did they ever find
your watch or wallet
332
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,513
in my client's possession?
333
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:23,688
Not to my knowledge.
334
00:14:23,775 --> 00:14:25,037
Did the police find
335
00:14:25,124 --> 00:14:27,213
any physical
or forensic evidence
336
00:14:27,300 --> 00:14:29,563
connecting my client
to this robbery?
337
00:14:29,650 --> 00:14:30,913
Not to my knowledge, no.
338
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,264
So, basically, all we have
is your ID
339
00:14:34,351 --> 00:14:36,135
in a dark parking lot
340
00:14:36,222 --> 00:14:38,094
while you were under shock
341
00:14:38,181 --> 00:14:40,923
with a gun stuck
in your face, right?
342
00:14:41,010 --> 00:14:42,576
It was that man right there.
343
00:14:42,663 --> 00:14:44,317
Am I not being
specific enough?
344
00:14:44,404 --> 00:14:47,755
Well...it seems you're
very specific when it comes
345
00:14:47,842 --> 00:14:50,280
to describing guns..
346
00:14:50,367 --> 00:14:52,238
...just not fat Latinos.
347
00:14:56,503 --> 00:14:58,462
Marty Slumach?
348
00:14:58,549 --> 00:15:01,030
I am really concerned
that she would date him.
349
00:15:01,117 --> 00:15:03,728
- Why?
- He's a schlub, Malcolm.
350
00:15:03,815 --> 00:15:05,425
He has, like, zero ethics.
351
00:15:05,512 --> 00:15:07,079
Other lawyers refer
to him as "Law-trash."
352
00:15:07,166 --> 00:15:08,472
He's not bona fide.
353
00:15:08,559 --> 00:15:10,039
What does that say about Harry?
354
00:15:10,126 --> 00:15:12,476
That maybe she was lonely,
that maybe
355
00:15:12,563 --> 00:15:13,956
she likes a good laugh
once in a while
356
00:15:14,043 --> 00:15:16,088
that maybe she has physical
needs and likes some--
357
00:15:16,175 --> 00:15:19,831
Ah! Don't even think that.
358
00:15:19,918 --> 00:15:22,312
A woman should never
date beneath her.
359
00:15:22,399 --> 00:15:24,879
Those relationships don't work,
there are studies.
360
00:15:24,967 --> 00:15:26,272
And that Harry
chose to date him
361
00:15:26,359 --> 00:15:28,274
that tells me that she
has esteem issues.
362
00:15:28,361 --> 00:15:29,884
I think you're
overreacting and wrong.
363
00:15:29,972 --> 00:15:31,930
I have esteem issues, I know.
364
00:15:32,017 --> 00:15:34,193
All my life I've dated men
who are less than
365
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,326
so I could feel better than.
366
00:15:36,413 --> 00:15:39,503
But even I would..
367
00:15:39,590 --> 00:15:41,809
Ugh. Marty Slumach.
368
00:15:44,682 --> 00:15:45,813
Oh.
369
00:15:50,949 --> 00:15:52,690
Oopsies.
370
00:15:53,734 --> 00:15:55,475
You did damage, Harry.
371
00:15:55,562 --> 00:15:57,608
That was beautiful.
372
00:15:57,695 --> 00:15:59,305
It's a work of art,
is what it was.
373
00:15:59,392 --> 00:16:01,742
I didn't exactly
shake his story, Marty.
374
00:16:01,829 --> 00:16:04,180
Okay, I'm here.
Let's just get this done.
375
00:16:04,267 --> 00:16:05,877
If you don't have the money,
don't even think--
376
00:16:05,964 --> 00:16:07,183
Carleton, Carleton.
377
00:16:07,270 --> 00:16:09,228
Alright, my friend,
this is Harry Korn.
378
00:16:09,315 --> 00:16:10,708
She's gonna be
conducting the direct.
379
00:16:10,795 --> 00:16:11,883
- I take it you read the file?
- Yeah, I did.
380
00:16:11,970 --> 00:16:13,232
You have an envelope for me?
381
00:16:13,319 --> 00:16:15,104
- I got a check right here.
- Check?
382
00:16:15,191 --> 00:16:16,714
It's not gonna bounce, I swear.
383
00:16:16,801 --> 00:16:18,890
- I'm outta here.
- Wait, wait, hold, hold, hold.
384
00:16:18,977 --> 00:16:22,067
Carleton, an innocent life
is on the line here.
385
00:16:22,154 --> 00:16:24,069
- Are you kidding me?
- Look, Doctor.
386
00:16:24,156 --> 00:16:26,724
We're a bit hung out
to dry here without you.
387
00:16:26,811 --> 00:16:28,769
If that check bounces,
I'll cover it.
388
00:16:28,856 --> 00:16:30,597
No offense,
but who the hell are you?
389
00:16:30,684 --> 00:16:32,251
One second, Harry.
390
00:16:32,338 --> 00:16:33,426
Come here.
391
00:16:35,820 --> 00:16:38,170
Now, listen to me,
you little prick.
392
00:16:38,257 --> 00:16:40,259
That person
is a respected attorney.
393
00:16:40,346 --> 00:16:42,609
Great. That makes one of you.
394
00:16:42,696 --> 00:16:44,829
She also happens
to be my friend.
395
00:16:44,916 --> 00:16:47,223
So you're gonna get your ass
on that stand
396
00:16:47,310 --> 00:16:49,355
and you're gonna testify
in court
397
00:16:49,442 --> 00:16:51,879
real convincing, you hear me?
398
00:16:51,966 --> 00:16:54,186
Or I will take you out to the
woodshed, rip out your colon
399
00:16:54,273 --> 00:16:56,145
and shove it down your throat.
400
00:16:57,581 --> 00:16:59,670
Do we understand each other,
my friend?
401
00:17:11,682 --> 00:17:13,466
You weren't just good, Amanda,
you were fantastic.
402
00:17:13,553 --> 00:17:14,641
There's no way they'll
make the case
403
00:17:14,728 --> 00:17:16,339
that firing you is
performance-based.
404
00:17:16,426 --> 00:17:18,167
If I have to, I'll take the
entire jury to see you on stage.
405
00:17:18,254 --> 00:17:19,777
Adam, I can't
go into a courtroom.
406
00:17:19,864 --> 00:17:21,561
'I'll just, I'll freeze up.'
407
00:17:21,648 --> 00:17:23,476
Like I said, they're betting
that you haven't got the guts--
408
00:17:23,563 --> 00:17:24,999
And I don't!
409
00:17:28,046 --> 00:17:30,962
Amanda, Confucius said,
"Do unto others
410
00:17:31,049 --> 00:17:33,051
or they'll keep doing it
unto you."
411
00:17:33,138 --> 00:17:34,966
You have to stick up
for yourself.
412
00:17:35,053 --> 00:17:36,968
'Let me draft a complaint,
send it'
413
00:17:37,055 --> 00:17:38,883
to opposing counsel,
but I won't file.
414
00:17:38,970 --> 00:17:42,452
Just the threat
that we could file..
415
00:17:42,539 --> 00:17:44,410
...they'll settle,
I promise.
416
00:17:46,108 --> 00:17:47,892
I'm sorry, but I find this
a little curious.
417
00:17:47,979 --> 00:17:50,242
I haven't even formally filed,
and already I'm in chambers
418
00:17:50,329 --> 00:17:51,765
for a motion to dismiss?
419
00:17:51,852 --> 00:17:53,506
Something doesn't smell right.
420
00:17:53,593 --> 00:17:55,639
Is this how you typically
begin your trials, counsel
421
00:17:55,726 --> 00:17:57,554
by questioning the integrity
of the judge?
422
00:17:57,641 --> 00:18:00,644
I haven't even officially
filed the complaint.
423
00:18:00,731 --> 00:18:02,602
I know. But I've seen it.
424
00:18:02,689 --> 00:18:04,126
And as Mr. Emerson points out
425
00:18:04,213 --> 00:18:06,476
the mere filing
of a complaint of this type
426
00:18:06,563 --> 00:18:09,653
is...incendiary,
it's perhaps irreparable.
427
00:18:09,740 --> 00:18:12,656
The defendant is a married man,
with a family
428
00:18:12,743 --> 00:18:14,310
and the allegations here would
429
00:18:14,397 --> 00:18:16,573
be devastating
whether they're proven or not.
430
00:18:16,660 --> 00:18:19,184
The court has to be sensitive
to that potential injustice.
431
00:18:19,271 --> 00:18:21,969
So, why exactly are we here?
432
00:18:22,056 --> 00:18:24,058
'We will conduct
an evidentiary hearing.'
433
00:18:24,146 --> 00:18:25,321
The courtroom will be sealed.
434
00:18:25,408 --> 00:18:27,018
If I am satisfied that there
435
00:18:27,105 --> 00:18:28,889
is enough to warrant a claim
then I will allow
436
00:18:28,976 --> 00:18:30,804
the lawsuit to be filed.
437
00:18:30,891 --> 00:18:33,894
- If that's not the--
- This is outrageous.
438
00:18:33,981 --> 00:18:36,158
We will conduct the hearing
at 9:00 a.m. tomorrow.
439
00:18:36,245 --> 00:18:39,291
Do you want to alienate me some
more, or are we done for now?
440
00:18:49,693 --> 00:18:52,043
Malcolm, um..
441
00:18:52,130 --> 00:18:54,828
...when I said earlier that--
442
00:18:54,915 --> 00:18:56,003
That it's your pattern
to date beneath you
443
00:18:56,090 --> 00:18:57,440
so you feel better than?
444
00:18:57,527 --> 00:18:59,311
That those relationships
never work.
445
00:18:59,398 --> 00:19:00,530
- That?
- Yes.
446
00:19:00,617 --> 00:19:03,794
When I said something like that
447
00:19:03,881 --> 00:19:05,709
I wasn't talking
about me and you.
448
00:19:05,796 --> 00:19:09,234
Malcolm. I wasn't. Come on,
this is Cincinnati.
449
00:19:09,321 --> 00:19:12,672
If I were looking to hook up
with a loser, then..
450
00:19:12,759 --> 00:19:15,936
You might think of yourself
as less than, but..
451
00:19:16,023 --> 00:19:17,329
...I certainly don't.
452
00:19:17,416 --> 00:19:18,591
I really like you.
453
00:19:18,678 --> 00:19:20,811
You're smart, you're funny.
454
00:19:20,898 --> 00:19:23,292
You're going
to be an amazing lawyer.
455
00:19:23,379 --> 00:19:25,424
You pretty much wrote
the brief on the fast-food case
456
00:19:25,511 --> 00:19:27,644
and you haven't even
gone to law school yet.
457
00:19:27,731 --> 00:19:31,169
You're awesome. I think you
should know that about yourself.
458
00:19:31,256 --> 00:19:33,171
You're awesome.
459
00:19:33,258 --> 00:19:35,173
So..
460
00:19:35,260 --> 00:19:37,393
...this is, like, a real thing,
you and me?
461
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:38,959
Well..
462
00:19:39,046 --> 00:19:42,485
...it feels like it is to me.
463
00:19:42,572 --> 00:19:45,488
- Does it to you?
- You find my alibi?
464
00:19:45,575 --> 00:19:48,186
- I'm working on it.
- Working on it?
465
00:19:48,273 --> 00:19:51,755
Malcolm, maybe I did a lousy job
stressing the urgency of this.
466
00:19:51,842 --> 00:19:54,061
No alibi witness,
our guy goes to jail.
467
00:19:54,148 --> 00:19:55,628
We are in trial now.
468
00:19:55,715 --> 00:19:58,414
Harry, do we really think
this alibi witness exists?
469
00:19:58,501 --> 00:20:00,067
I don't care whether
he exists or not.
470
00:20:00,154 --> 00:20:02,026
The point is
I asked you to find him.
471
00:20:05,595 --> 00:20:07,597
'If you look at all the people
wrongly convicted'
472
00:20:07,684 --> 00:20:11,035
'and then cleared
by DNA evidence, a full 77%'
473
00:20:11,122 --> 00:20:13,994
'involve cases of mistaken
eyewitness identification.'
474
00:20:14,081 --> 00:20:15,605
- You've studied this?
- 'For 11 years.'
475
00:20:15,692 --> 00:20:16,910
Thirty-eight percent
of those screw-ups
476
00:20:16,997 --> 00:20:18,477
involve multiple eyewitnesses.
477
00:20:18,564 --> 00:20:20,653
Can you imagine different
people all fingering
478
00:20:20,740 --> 00:20:22,960
the same innocent person?
479
00:20:23,047 --> 00:20:25,397
We hear the expression,
"I saw it with my own eyes."
480
00:20:25,484 --> 00:20:27,573
Well, the fact is,
the eyes lie.
481
00:20:27,660 --> 00:20:29,401
- All the time.
- 'Okay, doctor.'
482
00:20:29,488 --> 00:20:31,185
Let's talk about this
particular case.
483
00:20:31,273 --> 00:20:33,275
Absolutely.
This man, Mr. Layton
484
00:20:33,362 --> 00:20:35,277
was under stress, fear.
485
00:20:35,364 --> 00:20:37,017
Why? I'll tell you why.
486
00:20:37,104 --> 00:20:39,324
He had a big gun
stuck in his face.
487
00:20:39,411 --> 00:20:42,762
Stress especially compromises
one's ability to perceive.
488
00:20:42,849 --> 00:20:44,634
'The likelihood is that he
went into that lineup'
489
00:20:44,721 --> 00:20:48,855
predisposed, wanting to believe
the police had the guy.
490
00:20:48,942 --> 00:20:51,902
He became desperate
to believe it, determined.
491
00:20:51,989 --> 00:20:53,947
- He says he's sure.
- Ha!
492
00:20:54,034 --> 00:20:55,862
If you look at all the
eyewitnesses who got it wrong
493
00:20:55,949 --> 00:20:57,951
they have one thing
in common..
494
00:20:58,038 --> 00:21:00,476
...they were sure.
495
00:21:00,563 --> 00:21:02,086
'Do you have any evidence'
496
00:21:02,173 --> 00:21:04,349
to show Mr. Layton
was wrong here?
497
00:21:04,436 --> 00:21:07,004
- No. But that doesn't mean--
- Thank you.
498
00:21:07,091 --> 00:21:09,311
Do you have any reason
to doubt his veracity?
499
00:21:09,398 --> 00:21:10,964
No. But my research shows
that--
500
00:21:11,051 --> 00:21:12,401
Thank you.
501
00:21:12,488 --> 00:21:13,924
And how many times have you
testified
502
00:21:14,011 --> 00:21:16,927
for the defense in one
of Mr. Slumach's cases?
503
00:21:17,014 --> 00:21:19,233
- I'm not really sure.
- More than 50?
504
00:21:19,321 --> 00:21:20,844
Probably around 50.
505
00:21:20,931 --> 00:21:22,715
And you get paid
to do so, don't you?
506
00:21:22,802 --> 00:21:24,761
I get paid for my time, yes.
507
00:21:24,848 --> 00:21:26,893
So you're a professional
witness.
508
00:21:26,980 --> 00:21:29,331
- Objection.
- So, doctor..
509
00:21:29,418 --> 00:21:30,506
How much money are you
being paid
510
00:21:30,593 --> 00:21:32,203
to sit in that chair
right now?
511
00:21:32,290 --> 00:21:34,597
Sixteen hundred dollars.
512
00:21:34,684 --> 00:21:36,468
Gee.
513
00:21:36,555 --> 00:21:38,296
I'm in the wrong business.
514
00:21:41,908 --> 00:21:43,345
Kind of quiet, Harry.
What's the matter?
515
00:21:43,432 --> 00:21:45,129
'You got that acid reflux thing
again?'
516
00:21:45,216 --> 00:21:47,697
No. Marty.
517
00:21:47,784 --> 00:21:50,439
Your little scene
in the corridor with the expert
518
00:21:50,526 --> 00:21:54,094
and his subsequent
compelling testimony
519
00:21:54,181 --> 00:21:56,575
it's left a very bad taste
in my mouth.
520
00:21:56,662 --> 00:21:59,230
- Why?
- Why?
521
00:21:59,317 --> 00:22:01,493
Because the testimony
was bought
522
00:22:01,580 --> 00:22:03,147
coerced, for all I know.
523
00:22:03,234 --> 00:22:05,758
- 'Supplied.'
- No, it wasn't.
524
00:22:05,845 --> 00:22:08,631
Did we pay him for his time?
Yes. Did we argue? Yes.
525
00:22:08,718 --> 00:22:10,197
'I never put words
in his mouth.'
526
00:22:10,284 --> 00:22:12,374
Marty, it was disgusting.
527
00:22:12,461 --> 00:22:14,158
- And you know it.
- No, I don't know it.
528
00:22:14,245 --> 00:22:17,335
You strong-armed a medical
expert, a doctor under oath--
529
00:22:17,422 --> 00:22:18,902
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
530
00:22:18,989 --> 00:22:20,338
Pharmaceutical companies
put doctors
531
00:22:20,425 --> 00:22:21,644
on the take all the time.
532
00:22:21,731 --> 00:22:24,951
They pay doctors
to prescribe their drugs.
533
00:22:25,038 --> 00:22:27,345
You think car companies don't
heap piles of dough on engineers
534
00:22:27,432 --> 00:22:29,042
just to testify
that their cars are safe?
535
00:22:29,129 --> 00:22:32,219
- That doesn't make it right.
- But it goes on.
536
00:22:32,306 --> 00:22:34,831
Look, if big, rich companies can
benefit from that kind of help
537
00:22:34,918 --> 00:22:36,876
why-why should poor schlubs
like Ronald Perry..
538
00:22:36,963 --> 00:22:38,443
Is that what you tell yourself?
539
00:22:38,530 --> 00:22:41,098
It's what I'm telling you.
540
00:22:41,185 --> 00:22:42,839
You know, Harry, sometimes
541
00:22:42,926 --> 00:22:44,406
I think you lose track
of the ground
542
00:22:44,493 --> 00:22:46,233
sitting up there on that
high horse of yours.
543
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,019
Ronald Perry could
very well be guilty.
544
00:22:49,106 --> 00:22:51,151
- Is probably guilty.
- Or he could be innocent.
545
00:22:51,238 --> 00:22:54,981
- Oh, please.
- Which is a jury question.
546
00:22:55,068 --> 00:22:57,549
Our job is to fight
for the guy
547
00:22:57,636 --> 00:22:59,377
and if you're sitting there,
suggesting
548
00:22:59,464 --> 00:23:03,599
that we fight a little less hard
for the ones we think did it
549
00:23:03,686 --> 00:23:06,210
maybe you should save a little
of that disgust for yourself.
550
00:23:06,297 --> 00:23:08,865
The very fact that you're being
this defensive tells me you--
551
00:23:08,952 --> 00:23:11,737
I'm defensive
because I'm sick of it.
552
00:23:11,824 --> 00:23:14,566
I hear this crap all the time.
I'm sick of it, Harry.
553
00:23:14,653 --> 00:23:17,264
Oh, oh, Marty Slumach
is-is law trash
554
00:23:17,351 --> 00:23:19,876
sleazy, bottom-feeding.
555
00:23:19,963 --> 00:23:21,312
You think that feels good?
556
00:23:21,399 --> 00:23:23,009
'I'm not law trash.'
557
00:23:23,096 --> 00:23:25,272
- I'm as noble as the next..
- Okay, settle down.
558
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,449
To hear this from somebody
who knows me?
559
00:23:27,536 --> 00:23:29,363
From somebody
that I've been with?
560
00:23:29,451 --> 00:23:31,322
Ronald Perry
deserves best efforts.
561
00:23:31,409 --> 00:23:33,193
Guilty or not.
They all do.
562
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,196
You have no right to look down
on me, to judge me.
563
00:23:36,283 --> 00:23:38,024
You can go to hell.
564
00:23:55,607 --> 00:23:57,696
Judge Coulis
is very respected, Adam.
565
00:23:57,783 --> 00:23:58,915
I hadn't even filed.
566
00:23:59,002 --> 00:24:01,047
Well, maybe a favor was pulled
567
00:24:01,134 --> 00:24:04,224
to get fast action,
but she's a good judge.
568
00:24:04,311 --> 00:24:06,096
- Will Amanda testify?
- I hope.
569
00:24:06,183 --> 00:24:08,620
This is really unbelievable.
570
00:24:08,707 --> 00:24:10,013
Easy, easy, easy.
571
00:24:10,100 --> 00:24:11,928
Harry, this is Stevie Kazz,
the alibi.
572
00:24:12,015 --> 00:24:14,191
- We found him.
- And it wasn't easy, neither.
573
00:24:14,278 --> 00:24:17,324
Have a seat, Stevie.
And I'm watching you.
574
00:24:17,411 --> 00:24:19,805
So don't be stealin' nothin',
neither.
575
00:24:19,892 --> 00:24:22,199
Man has got a stealin' problem.
576
00:24:23,635 --> 00:24:25,507
Now, tell her what you told us.
577
00:24:28,205 --> 00:24:31,991
Don't make me smack your ass.
Tell her.
578
00:24:32,078 --> 00:24:35,517
Ronnie didn't do this thing.
He was with me that night.
579
00:24:35,604 --> 00:24:37,344
We was hangin' at my place,
watching "CSI"
580
00:24:37,431 --> 00:24:40,652
and "Who Wants To Be A Big Fat
Loser," or whatever it's called.
581
00:24:40,739 --> 00:24:41,958
He didn't do that robbery
six years ago
582
00:24:42,045 --> 00:24:43,176
neither, it was just me.
583
00:24:43,263 --> 00:24:44,308
Six years ago, you were both
584
00:24:44,395 --> 00:24:45,701
arrested at the scene.
585
00:24:45,788 --> 00:24:47,746
Yeah, we pulled in to get gas.
586
00:24:47,833 --> 00:24:49,835
I get out of the car,
do my thing.
587
00:24:49,922 --> 00:24:52,185
Ronnie don't know I'm gonna
do it, he's just in the car.
588
00:24:52,272 --> 00:24:54,492
It's what I told everybody.
It's what he told everybody.
589
00:24:54,579 --> 00:24:57,713
And nobody believed him. That's
why he don't trust nobody now.
590
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,019
But Ronnie don't steal,
Ronnie don't rob.
591
00:25:00,106 --> 00:25:01,717
And the night
of the current robbery?
592
00:25:01,804 --> 00:25:03,632
With me. And I wasn't
robbin' nobody, neither.
593
00:25:03,719 --> 00:25:05,155
Man took a rare night off.
594
00:25:05,242 --> 00:25:08,158
- What were you doing?
- I told you.
595
00:25:08,245 --> 00:25:10,856
Watching "America's Biggest Fat
Loser," whatever it's called.
596
00:25:10,943 --> 00:25:13,598
You say, your place.
You have no known address.
597
00:25:13,685 --> 00:25:16,166
I got several places.
Just under different names.
598
00:25:16,253 --> 00:25:18,168
Wonderful.
599
00:25:18,255 --> 00:25:19,648
Anybody else with you?
600
00:25:19,735 --> 00:25:21,388
Just Ronnie and me.
601
00:25:21,475 --> 00:25:23,739
Told all this to the other
attorney already.
602
00:25:25,741 --> 00:25:27,394
Problem is,
even if he's not lying
603
00:25:27,481 --> 00:25:29,309
he still comes off a liar.
604
00:25:29,396 --> 00:25:30,963
Add to that
605
00:25:31,050 --> 00:25:34,880
increase the risk that
Ronnie's prior might come in.
606
00:25:34,967 --> 00:25:37,796
I mean, at a minimum,
it gets established
607
00:25:37,883 --> 00:25:41,017
that Ronnie associates
with armed robbers.
608
00:25:41,104 --> 00:25:43,628
I can't see letting that guy
anywhere near the witness stand.
609
00:25:43,715 --> 00:25:45,804
He only hurts us.
610
00:25:45,891 --> 00:25:47,414
I say we go straight
with our game plan
611
00:25:47,501 --> 00:25:49,025
go right to the closing
argument.
612
00:25:49,112 --> 00:25:50,330
You better be good,
by the way or else you can--
613
00:25:50,417 --> 00:25:51,941
Alright, Marty.
614
00:25:53,551 --> 00:25:56,946
Look, are you and I okay?
615
00:25:57,033 --> 00:25:59,035
Yeah. Why wouldn't we be?
616
00:25:59,122 --> 00:26:02,299
Marty, you told me
to go to hell.
617
00:26:02,386 --> 00:26:05,650
Well, it's not like I won't
be going there too, right?
618
00:26:05,737 --> 00:26:07,609
You know that better
than anybody.
619
00:26:10,699 --> 00:26:12,178
You had an affair?
620
00:26:12,265 --> 00:26:14,485
Yes. It ended nine days ago.
621
00:26:14,572 --> 00:26:15,573
What happened?
622
00:26:15,660 --> 00:26:17,270
His wife found out. They..
623
00:26:17,357 --> 00:26:19,795
Carl...said that he wanted
624
00:26:19,882 --> 00:26:21,797
to try to make things
work with his family.
625
00:26:21,884 --> 00:26:24,843
And that the affair had to end.
626
00:26:24,930 --> 00:26:26,628
- And then what?
- Four days later..
627
00:26:26,715 --> 00:26:28,325
He said
that I would have to leave.
628
00:26:28,412 --> 00:26:30,153
'That his wife couldn't
bear the idea'
629
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:32,155
of me working in the same..
630
00:26:32,242 --> 00:26:33,765
I was fired.
631
00:26:33,852 --> 00:26:36,333
Amanda, can you tell
the court why your job
632
00:26:36,420 --> 00:26:37,856
is so important to you?
633
00:26:37,943 --> 00:26:40,163
All my life,
I've always been different.
634
00:26:40,250 --> 00:26:44,602
I'm anatomically male.
I think of myself as a woman.
635
00:26:44,689 --> 00:26:47,083
Retreating into my stage
persona?
636
00:26:47,170 --> 00:26:48,911
'It was more than an escape.'
637
00:26:48,998 --> 00:26:50,260
It was home.
638
00:26:50,347 --> 00:26:53,350
This job is my lifeline
in so many ways.
639
00:26:53,437 --> 00:26:55,352
I just need it more than ever.
640
00:26:55,439 --> 00:26:57,441
'This love affair you describe.'
641
00:26:57,528 --> 00:26:59,051
- Was it consensual?
- Yes.
642
00:26:59,138 --> 00:27:00,879
You never felt
any pressure to, say..
643
00:27:00,966 --> 00:27:03,229
- Go out with your boss?
- No.
644
00:27:03,316 --> 00:27:05,318
Did it have anything to do
with his being your boss?
645
00:27:05,405 --> 00:27:07,233
- No.
- I appreciate your honesty.
646
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:08,887
I understand your act
is very popular.
647
00:27:08,974 --> 00:27:10,846
- Yes.
- Ever have any offers
648
00:27:10,933 --> 00:27:14,023
from other clubs, say, trying to
steal you away from Chez Paris?
649
00:27:14,110 --> 00:27:15,894
- Yes.
- And since you've been fired
650
00:27:15,981 --> 00:27:18,157
have you gone out
looking for other work?
651
00:27:18,244 --> 00:27:19,985
- No.
- 'And since your breakup'
652
00:27:20,072 --> 00:27:22,945
have you approached Mr. Thomas
653
00:27:23,032 --> 00:27:24,816
called him in an effort
to get back together?
654
00:27:24,903 --> 00:27:26,905
- Yes.
- How many times have you
655
00:27:26,992 --> 00:27:29,908
approached him or called him?
656
00:27:29,995 --> 00:27:32,215
- More than 20?
- I'm not sure.
657
00:27:32,302 --> 00:27:35,348
The reason you need this job,
at Chez Paris
658
00:27:35,435 --> 00:27:38,438
is because it's your only means
of staying close to Mr. Thomas.
659
00:27:38,525 --> 00:27:40,266
Isn't that it, Amanda?
660
00:27:44,923 --> 00:27:46,708
Okay, we'll take a break.
661
00:27:46,795 --> 00:27:48,231
Ten minutes.
662
00:27:48,318 --> 00:27:50,407
I will see counsel
in my chambers.
663
00:27:54,193 --> 00:27:57,196
- I am tossing this out.
- Just like that.
664
00:27:57,283 --> 00:27:59,546
Counsel, she has made
no effort to mitigate.
665
00:27:59,633 --> 00:28:01,505
She even admits
that she can get other work.
666
00:28:01,592 --> 00:28:03,463
She also concedes
the boss-employee
667
00:28:03,550 --> 00:28:04,682
equation wasn't really in play.
668
00:28:04,769 --> 00:28:06,553
But of course it's in play--
669
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,425
This court is not equipped
670
00:28:08,512 --> 00:28:10,383
to remedy broken hearts.
671
00:28:10,470 --> 00:28:12,429
She has a whole community
of friends.
672
00:28:12,516 --> 00:28:14,910
Yeah, and I am not in power
to give her her job back.
673
00:28:14,997 --> 00:28:17,129
All a court of law can do
is award money damages
674
00:28:17,216 --> 00:28:19,262
of which there seem to be none.
675
00:28:19,349 --> 00:28:22,004
If you file, I will not allow
this complaint to stand.
676
00:28:22,091 --> 00:28:24,136
If you go ahead and file,
all the same
677
00:28:24,223 --> 00:28:28,140
or even threaten to, well,
that reeks of abuse of process.
678
00:28:28,227 --> 00:28:29,794
Extortion.
679
00:28:29,881 --> 00:28:31,317
And I don't think
you want to go there.
680
00:28:31,404 --> 00:28:32,666
Are you actually prohibiting me
681
00:28:32,754 --> 00:28:34,581
from so much
as filing the claim?
682
00:28:34,668 --> 00:28:37,149
I am telling you that if you do
683
00:28:37,236 --> 00:28:39,238
on these facts
684
00:28:39,325 --> 00:28:41,197
it's at your own peril.
685
00:28:44,287 --> 00:28:47,377
I can certainly amend
the complaint to allege..
686
00:28:47,464 --> 00:28:50,423
But, Amanda, maybe this is best.
687
00:28:50,510 --> 00:28:52,251
It would've been tough for you
to move on with your life
688
00:28:52,338 --> 00:28:55,428
at least emotionally,
there, with him.
689
00:28:55,515 --> 00:28:58,605
I know this is difficult
to believe at the moment.
690
00:28:58,692 --> 00:29:00,390
But you'll find somebody.
691
00:29:00,477 --> 00:29:04,220
You're a beautiful,
sensitive, gifted woman.
692
00:29:04,307 --> 00:29:07,049
- With a penis.
- Okay.
693
00:29:07,136 --> 00:29:10,617
There is something just
too enchanting about you
694
00:29:10,704 --> 00:29:12,184
not to find love again.
695
00:29:12,271 --> 00:29:15,231
You're a really kind man.
696
00:29:15,318 --> 00:29:18,451
May I come to your final
performance tonight?
697
00:29:18,538 --> 00:29:21,019
I'd like that.
Okay.
698
00:29:21,106 --> 00:29:23,413
- Onward and upward, right?
- Right.
699
00:29:39,559 --> 00:29:41,344
The victim told you.
700
00:29:41,431 --> 00:29:43,041
The person who robbed him
701
00:29:43,128 --> 00:29:45,478
the person who stuck
a Magnum in his face
702
00:29:45,565 --> 00:29:47,393
is that man, Ronald Perry.
703
00:29:49,178 --> 00:29:52,311
And Bernard Layton
was unwavering.
704
00:29:52,398 --> 00:29:54,574
'I mean, this is a trustworthy
witness.'
705
00:29:54,661 --> 00:29:57,490
He has no motive to lie,
no bias
706
00:29:57,577 --> 00:30:00,232
'he made a positive ID,
in the lineup.'
707
00:30:00,319 --> 00:30:02,844
And he was resolute
when he came face to face
708
00:30:02,931 --> 00:30:04,584
with him in this room.
709
00:30:04,671 --> 00:30:07,544
As for the defense, well,
there was no defense.
710
00:30:07,631 --> 00:30:10,329
No alibi, no suggestion
711
00:30:10,416 --> 00:30:11,809
that the defendant was anywhere
712
00:30:11,896 --> 00:30:13,855
but in that parking lot.
713
00:30:13,942 --> 00:30:16,945
Nothing.
Just one hired gun
714
00:30:17,032 --> 00:30:19,686
expert witness
who had no knowledge
715
00:30:19,773 --> 00:30:22,254
of this case whatsoever.
716
00:30:22,341 --> 00:30:24,866
He just came armed
with an expert opinion
717
00:30:24,953 --> 00:30:29,087
that sometimes eyewitnesses
get it wrong.
718
00:30:29,174 --> 00:30:33,309
Wow. An expert
who was paid to be here.
719
00:30:33,396 --> 00:30:36,312
An expert who's testified
in 50
720
00:30:36,399 --> 00:30:39,837
maybe 100 of these kinds
of cases.
721
00:30:39,924 --> 00:30:42,535
An expert that criminal
defense attorneys
722
00:30:42,622 --> 00:30:45,103
keep on speed dial
723
00:30:45,190 --> 00:30:47,976
just in case they have
nobody else.
724
00:30:48,063 --> 00:30:52,371
Now, Bernard Layton, did
he seem unsure to you?
725
00:30:52,458 --> 00:30:55,679
Equivocal?
Uncertain?
726
00:30:55,766 --> 00:30:57,768
He had no doubt.
727
00:30:57,855 --> 00:30:59,422
None.
728
00:30:59,509 --> 00:31:01,119
He was there.
729
00:31:01,206 --> 00:31:03,556
He saw who robbed him.
730
00:31:03,643 --> 00:31:04,775
No doubt.
731
00:31:12,174 --> 00:31:14,872
If you were to Google
"Project Innocence"
732
00:31:14,959 --> 00:31:18,484
you'd see case after case
after case after case
733
00:31:18,571 --> 00:31:21,618
of people wrongly convicted
by unflinching
734
00:31:21,705 --> 00:31:23,750
but mistaken
eyewitness testimony.
735
00:31:23,837 --> 00:31:26,710
I'm sorry, Your Honor.
She's introducing evidence.
736
00:31:26,797 --> 00:31:28,886
- Ms. Korn.
- Sorry.
737
00:31:28,973 --> 00:31:31,106
You know, to be honest
738
00:31:31,193 --> 00:31:34,152
when I first got this case,
I thought, "Ick."
739
00:31:34,239 --> 00:31:36,111
Who wants these kinds of cases?
740
00:31:36,198 --> 00:31:38,896
They don't pay.
The facts are ugly.
741
00:31:38,983 --> 00:31:40,332
'And when I first saw
the defendant'
742
00:31:40,419 --> 00:31:42,204
'I thought,
"He probably did it."'
743
00:31:42,291 --> 00:31:44,249
I'm sure a few of you
think the same.
744
00:31:44,336 --> 00:31:46,860
And the victim, he's intelligent
745
00:31:46,948 --> 00:31:49,124
clean-cut, upper middle class
746
00:31:49,211 --> 00:31:51,213
certainly no motive to lie.
747
00:31:51,300 --> 00:31:52,736
Why wouldn't we believe him?
748
00:31:52,823 --> 00:31:54,390
I mean, he was there,
for God's sake.
749
00:31:54,477 --> 00:31:55,826
If he says it was Ronald Perry
750
00:31:55,913 --> 00:31:57,784
then who the hell
are we to doubt him?
751
00:31:57,871 --> 00:32:00,091
Well, you have a duty
to doubt him.
752
00:32:00,178 --> 00:32:03,138
You took an oath to demand
that the prosecution satisfy
753
00:32:03,225 --> 00:32:06,619
its burden of proving guilt
beyond all reasonable doubt.
754
00:32:06,706 --> 00:32:07,838
And they haven't done that.
755
00:32:07,925 --> 00:32:09,361
'They never found the watch'
756
00:32:09,448 --> 00:32:11,711
'or wallet in my client's
possession.'
757
00:32:11,798 --> 00:32:13,887
Never located a gun.
758
00:32:13,975 --> 00:32:15,802
They introduced
no physical evidence
759
00:32:15,889 --> 00:32:19,850
no circumstantial evidence,
no forensics of any kind
760
00:32:19,937 --> 00:32:21,765
just the eyewitness account
from a man
761
00:32:21,852 --> 00:32:24,463
who clearly had to be in shock.
762
00:32:24,550 --> 00:32:26,944
A man who was able to describe
almost nothing
763
00:32:27,031 --> 00:32:28,815
about his assailant.
764
00:32:28,902 --> 00:32:31,557
For the gun, you heard
the meticulous details
765
00:32:31,644 --> 00:32:34,343
but for the suspect,
"Fat Latino."
766
00:32:34,430 --> 00:32:37,694
'That's it. Maybe Mr. Layton
got it right.'
767
00:32:37,781 --> 00:32:40,001
Perhaps it was Ronald Perry.
768
00:32:40,088 --> 00:32:43,613
But maybe, just maybe,
he got it wrong.
769
00:32:43,700 --> 00:32:45,876
That's why, when it comes
to eyewitness testimony
770
00:32:45,963 --> 00:32:48,531
we demand corroborating evidence
771
00:32:48,618 --> 00:32:50,576
and here, there is none.
772
00:32:50,663 --> 00:32:52,535
None.
773
00:32:52,622 --> 00:32:54,363
And even if you were inclined
to accept
774
00:32:54,450 --> 00:32:57,322
an uncorroborated
eyewitness account
775
00:32:57,409 --> 00:32:59,324
please let it at least
be from somebody
776
00:32:59,411 --> 00:33:01,979
who could describe
the defendant.
777
00:33:02,066 --> 00:33:03,502
The color of his shirt
778
00:33:03,589 --> 00:33:06,027
'length of hair, eyes, nose'
779
00:33:06,114 --> 00:33:08,986
something more
than "Fat Latino."
780
00:33:09,073 --> 00:33:10,814
Let the testimony at least
be from somebody
781
00:33:10,901 --> 00:33:12,816
who wasn't in shock at the time.
782
00:33:12,903 --> 00:33:15,906
Someone who didn't have
a big gun stuck in his face.
783
00:33:15,993 --> 00:33:17,908
That is, if you care.
784
00:33:17,995 --> 00:33:19,866
A lot of juries don't,
let's face it
785
00:33:19,953 --> 00:33:22,391
especially when it comes
to blacks and Latinos
786
00:33:22,478 --> 00:33:23,696
and not just the fat ones.
787
00:33:23,783 --> 00:33:24,828
Objection, Your Honor.
788
00:33:24,915 --> 00:33:26,438
- Come on!
- Come on, what?
789
00:33:26,525 --> 00:33:28,571
Are you prepared to argue
that equal treatment exists?
790
00:33:28,658 --> 00:33:31,269
Alright, counsel,
we get your point.
791
00:33:34,620 --> 00:33:36,927
I'm new at this
criminal practice.
792
00:33:37,014 --> 00:33:39,495
I come from patent law
793
00:33:39,582 --> 00:33:41,323
a much more lucrative practice.
794
00:33:41,410 --> 00:33:43,151
Very white-collar.
795
00:33:43,238 --> 00:33:45,588
We never get any of these
"ick" cases.
796
00:33:45,675 --> 00:33:47,329
'In fact, I often wondered
about the attorneys'
797
00:33:47,416 --> 00:33:49,548
who did criminal law.
798
00:33:49,635 --> 00:33:51,811
As I said,
there's no money in it.
799
00:33:51,898 --> 00:33:54,249
For the most part,
your clients are..
800
00:33:54,336 --> 00:33:57,121
...well...criminals.
801
00:33:57,208 --> 00:34:00,124
What kind of lawyer
wants that for a life?
802
00:34:00,211 --> 00:34:02,431
Well, there's one,
sitting right there.
803
00:34:02,518 --> 00:34:04,172
Marty Slumach.
804
00:34:04,259 --> 00:34:05,956
'Wakes up every day'
805
00:34:06,043 --> 00:34:09,394
fights against overwhelming
odds, and for what?
806
00:34:09,481 --> 00:34:13,659
To make the prosecution satisfy
its burden every damn time
807
00:34:13,746 --> 00:34:15,835
even for his guilty clients.
808
00:34:15,922 --> 00:34:17,881
Why? What's the point?
809
00:34:17,968 --> 00:34:21,014
Well, the point is, once you
relax those standards
810
00:34:21,102 --> 00:34:24,322
once you say, "Close enough
is good enough," "Seems guilty"
811
00:34:24,409 --> 00:34:27,760
"Lock him up," it's not just
the guilty who are at risk
812
00:34:27,847 --> 00:34:29,980
but the innocent.
813
00:34:30,067 --> 00:34:31,286
You.
814
00:34:31,373 --> 00:34:32,374
'Me.'
815
00:34:32,461 --> 00:34:34,593
Law trash.
816
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,508
That's what we bluebloods
like to call
817
00:34:36,595 --> 00:34:39,816
the Marty Slumaches
of the world.
818
00:34:39,903 --> 00:34:42,949
'But the thing is,
without lawyers like him'
819
00:34:43,036 --> 00:34:45,735
'a lot of innocent people
would go to jail.'
820
00:34:45,822 --> 00:34:49,391
Especially the disenfranchised
who have no money, no resources
821
00:34:49,478 --> 00:34:50,957
no means to fight the system.
822
00:34:51,044 --> 00:34:52,611
That's why, at closer look
823
00:34:52,698 --> 00:34:55,962
Marty isn't so much law trash
as he is a hero.
824
00:34:56,049 --> 00:34:57,747
One I admire very much.
825
00:34:57,834 --> 00:34:59,966
Is he retiring?
Is there gonna be a gold watch?
826
00:35:00,053 --> 00:35:01,316
What the hell is going on here?
827
00:35:01,403 --> 00:35:03,056
What's going on is that man
828
00:35:03,144 --> 00:35:04,884
not Marty, but our client
829
00:35:04,971 --> 00:35:06,886
could very well be innocent.
830
00:35:06,973 --> 00:35:09,280
The State has not
satisfied its burden.
831
00:35:09,367 --> 00:35:11,587
It hasn't even come close.
832
00:35:11,674 --> 00:35:14,981
He has not been proven guilty
beyond all reasonable doubt.
833
00:35:15,068 --> 00:35:18,115
You can't charge a man,
take away his freedom
834
00:35:18,202 --> 00:35:20,726
with no physical
or forensic evidence, nothing
835
00:35:20,813 --> 00:35:22,511
but one shockey ID
836
00:35:22,598 --> 00:35:25,122
and call that justice.
837
00:35:25,209 --> 00:35:28,125
You can't be satisfied
with that.
838
00:35:28,212 --> 00:35:30,519
Or can you.
839
00:35:30,606 --> 00:35:32,477
Assuming, of course,
you care.
840
00:35:34,305 --> 00:35:35,524
Do you?
841
00:35:51,540 --> 00:35:53,324
This is the worst part,
right here.
842
00:35:53,411 --> 00:35:55,761
Always gets me so nervous.
843
00:35:55,848 --> 00:35:57,546
You ever get nervous?
844
00:35:59,983 --> 00:36:01,680
I can see you're a wreck.
845
00:36:03,900 --> 00:36:06,511
At this point, I'll ask
the defendant to rise.
846
00:36:10,820 --> 00:36:13,475
Mr. Foreman,
this verdict is unanimous?
847
00:36:13,562 --> 00:36:16,608
- Yes, Your Honor.
- What say you?
848
00:36:16,695 --> 00:36:18,610
In the matter of The People
of the State of Ohio
849
00:36:18,697 --> 00:36:20,308
versus Ronald Perry
850
00:36:20,395 --> 00:36:22,962
on the charge
of aggravated armed robbery
851
00:36:23,049 --> 00:36:25,965
we the jury, find
the defendant Ronald Perry..
852
00:36:26,052 --> 00:36:27,619
...not guilty.
853
00:36:27,706 --> 00:36:29,360
Wow.
854
00:36:29,447 --> 00:36:30,927
Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury
855
00:36:31,014 --> 00:36:32,711
the state of Ohio thanks you
for your service.
856
00:36:32,798 --> 00:36:34,583
You are now dismissed.
857
00:36:34,670 --> 00:36:37,281
- Wasn't expecting that.
- Me neither.
858
00:36:37,368 --> 00:36:40,763
Okay, Ronald, the jury took its
responsibility seriously.
859
00:36:40,850 --> 00:36:42,678
'You're free to go.'
860
00:36:42,765 --> 00:36:44,070
Congratulations.
861
00:36:49,598 --> 00:36:51,339
He's overcome.
862
00:36:51,426 --> 00:36:53,079
I can see that.
863
00:36:57,780 --> 00:37:00,086
Harry, I-I can't
thank you enough
864
00:37:00,173 --> 00:37:03,438
you know, for your help,
for your kind words, which..
865
00:37:03,525 --> 00:37:05,875
Y-you know what?
Can we sit down for a sec?
866
00:37:05,962 --> 00:37:07,920
Okay.
867
00:37:08,007 --> 00:37:09,400
You know this-this
whole experience
868
00:37:09,487 --> 00:37:10,836
it's just made me think
869
00:37:10,923 --> 00:37:13,404
how great it would be,
you know, if we..
870
00:37:13,491 --> 00:37:15,711
You know, if were to join up.
871
00:37:15,798 --> 00:37:18,844
Me with a pile of cases,
you with the valid license..
872
00:37:18,931 --> 00:37:20,542
...we make a good team.
873
00:37:20,629 --> 00:37:23,936
Marty, that's not in the cards.
874
00:37:25,634 --> 00:37:27,810
Okay. Just a thought,
that's all. It's..
875
00:37:27,897 --> 00:37:29,507
You know,
I had another thought.
876
00:37:29,594 --> 00:37:31,857
Not like me to have
two thoughts in a week
877
00:37:31,944 --> 00:37:34,382
but, you know, this, uh..
878
00:37:34,469 --> 00:37:36,558
It...it made me remember
879
00:37:36,645 --> 00:37:40,736
how great a team we were,
y-you know, socially.
880
00:37:40,823 --> 00:37:42,912
I'm just gonna say this.
Okay?
881
00:37:45,262 --> 00:37:47,786
You're the best person
I ever met in my life.
882
00:37:47,873 --> 00:37:49,832
Period. If there was
a chance that..
883
00:37:49,919 --> 00:37:53,226
You know...again..
884
00:37:57,318 --> 00:37:59,798
I don't think that's
in the cards, either.
885
00:38:02,366 --> 00:38:03,498
Oh..
886
00:38:05,021 --> 00:38:06,109
Okay.
887
00:38:07,763 --> 00:38:09,460
We can always be friends,
right?
888
00:38:09,547 --> 00:38:12,071
- Absolutely.
- Yeah, I mean, listen.
889
00:38:13,638 --> 00:38:14,857
This doesn't have
to be good-bye.
890
00:38:14,944 --> 00:38:16,032
Not at all.
891
00:38:16,119 --> 00:38:17,555
And maybe I'll have some cases
892
00:38:17,642 --> 00:38:18,600
I'll bring your way and we could
893
00:38:18,687 --> 00:38:19,688
we could co-counsel?
894
00:38:19,775 --> 00:38:20,689
That sounds great.
895
00:38:20,776 --> 00:38:22,560
Great. Fantastic.
896
00:38:23,866 --> 00:38:25,998
Take care of yourself,
okay, Harry?
897
00:38:26,085 --> 00:38:28,000
You, too.
I will.
898
00:38:40,970 --> 00:38:43,233
I told her she should
go out big, you know?
899
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:44,974
'However much she hurts inside'
900
00:38:45,061 --> 00:38:46,541
go out big,
for all she's worth.
901
00:38:46,628 --> 00:38:48,499
- You want to come watch?
- Sure.
902
00:38:51,110 --> 00:38:53,678
- Something wrong?
- You tell me.
903
00:38:53,765 --> 00:38:55,593
Chunhau, talk to me.
What's wrong?
904
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:57,943
What's wrong is
you've stopped talking to me.
905
00:38:58,030 --> 00:38:59,075
No, I haven't.
906
00:38:59,162 --> 00:39:01,599
You've been pulling away, Adam.
907
00:39:01,686 --> 00:39:03,209
I'm not exactly sure why, but--
908
00:39:03,296 --> 00:39:04,733
I've just been busy,
that's all.
909
00:39:04,820 --> 00:39:06,691
You were also nearly shot
a few weeks ago.
910
00:39:06,778 --> 00:39:09,477
You were clearly
traumatized and yet..
911
00:39:13,394 --> 00:39:15,918
Is there...somebody else?
912
00:39:18,616 --> 00:39:20,923
Adam, I don't mean to be needy,
and I know you're working hard
913
00:39:21,010 --> 00:39:23,273
but if we're gona
be together
914
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,276
I need to feel together.
915
00:39:26,363 --> 00:39:27,625
- You need to talk to me.
- Okay.
916
00:39:27,712 --> 00:39:30,280
Sorry. Okay.
917
00:39:30,367 --> 00:39:34,458
I just feel like I'm missing
a piece of the puzzle here.
918
00:39:34,545 --> 00:39:37,592
Look, like you said,
I've been through a lot.
919
00:39:37,679 --> 00:39:39,332
I need to communicate better,
and I will.
920
00:39:39,420 --> 00:39:41,334
I will.
921
00:39:41,422 --> 00:39:43,511
- Okay.
- Come on.
922
00:39:45,034 --> 00:39:46,601
Let's go help send Amanda off.
923
00:39:46,688 --> 00:39:47,602
Okay.
924
00:39:48,777 --> 00:39:49,952
Are you coming?
925
00:39:50,039 --> 00:39:51,606
I wouldn't miss it.
926
00:40:18,894 --> 00:40:20,635
Saved
927
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,194
Somebody, not Oscar Wilde
928
00:40:58,281 --> 00:41:00,065
but somebody once said
929
00:41:00,152 --> 00:41:03,504
"Our lives are the sum
total of our experiences."
930
00:41:03,591 --> 00:41:05,244
But it's not the experiences.
931
00:41:05,331 --> 00:41:06,637
It's the people.
932
00:41:08,465 --> 00:41:10,511
Not just the ones
in our lives..
933
00:41:13,339 --> 00:41:15,298
...but those who play through.
934
00:41:15,385 --> 00:41:16,691
The Amandas.
935
00:41:17,996 --> 00:41:19,650
The Martys.
936
00:41:19,737 --> 00:41:24,002
All the fly by,
small but rich relationships.
937
00:41:24,089 --> 00:41:26,265
Sometimes they're
the most special of all.
938
00:41:26,352 --> 00:41:29,573
It's why we always promise
to keep in touch.
939
00:41:29,660 --> 00:41:33,446
If only we did.
If only we did.
940
00:42:13,312 --> 00:42:14,400
- Yah!
- Aah!
941
00:42:14,487 --> 00:42:15,663
You stink!
