1
00:00:01,603 --> 00:00:02,347
You're fired.

2
00:00:02,441 --> 00:00:05,031
What's with all the shoes?
Previous tenant. Got evicted.

3
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:07,342
Isn't it looking great?
Looks like a shoe store.

4
00:00:07,446 --> 00:00:08,812
When Malcolm jumped
off that building,

5
00:00:08,907 --> 00:00:10,633
bounced off the awning
and then landed on you,

6
00:00:10,765 --> 00:00:13,543
and then Adam hit you with
his fully-loaded Mercedes...

7
00:00:13,647 --> 00:00:14,891
Okay, okay, okay.

8
00:00:14,962 --> 00:00:16,107
What are you doing? I'm temping.

9
00:00:16,206 --> 00:00:17,970
It was to bring the
four of us together.

10
00:00:18,085 --> 00:00:19,859
You protect me and my place,

11
00:00:19,963 --> 00:00:21,597
my law firm will
defend you for free.

12
00:00:21,679 --> 00:00:23,211
Cut the condescending crap.

13
00:00:23,290 --> 00:00:25,566
It makes you come off bald.
This how you ask for a favor?

14
00:00:25,701 --> 00:00:27,242
The tricks you pulled
as patent lawyer?

15
00:00:27,352 --> 00:00:29,016
Don't be pulling
them in my courtroom.

16
00:00:44,867 --> 00:00:46,571
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow down.

17
00:00:46,699 --> 00:00:47,824
Just take a breath.

18
00:00:48,098 --> 00:00:50,107
Fung. He's not slowing down. Hey!

19
00:00:50,223 --> 00:00:51,626
This is Fung Lao,
the owner of the Laundromat

20
00:00:51,749 --> 00:00:55,088
where Damien... Fung,
come on. Stop it!

21
00:00:55,198 --> 00:00:56,555
You can't just charge
out into the street

22
00:00:56,659 --> 00:00:58,932
barking a foreign
language like that.

23
00:01:00,355 --> 00:01:01,333
I'm sorry.

24
00:01:01,464 --> 00:01:02,975
My father is very upset.

25
00:01:03,083 --> 00:01:05,347
We've just been sued by a
former employee, and...

26
00:01:05,458 --> 00:01:06,591
He saw you through the window.

27
00:01:06,707 --> 00:01:08,480
He said you defended Damien.

28
00:01:08,802 --> 00:01:10,087
Can you help us?

29
00:01:10,165 --> 00:01:11,973
I can and I will.

30
00:01:12,060 --> 00:01:13,972
I actually specialize in labor law.

31
00:01:14,081 --> 00:01:15,173
Adam Branch, single.

32
00:01:15,261 --> 00:01:17,193
Listen, employees, when fired,

33
00:01:17,305 --> 00:01:18,678
threaten to sue all the time.

34
00:01:18,774 --> 00:01:19,684
They almost never win.

35
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,262
Tell your father not to worry.

36
00:01:21,425 --> 00:01:23,195
Why was this man discharged?

37
00:01:23,383 --> 00:01:24,097
It's a she.

38
00:01:24,221 --> 00:01:26,572
And she was fired for
getting pregnant.

39
00:01:30,047 --> 00:01:33,060
And this is against
Laundromat policy, is it?

40
00:01:33,173 --> 00:01:35,451
Well, she already has a child.

41
00:01:35,577 --> 00:01:37,623
We have a "One-child" Policy.

42
00:01:37,746 --> 00:01:39,461
Oh, how interesting.

43
00:01:39,732 --> 00:01:41,415
Just like, uh...

44
00:01:41,526 --> 00:01:43,634
What's the word? China.

45
00:01:45,330 --> 00:01:46,357
You're lovely.

46
00:01:46,558 --> 00:01:47,641
Adam.

47
00:01:47,829 --> 00:01:48,932
Your name?

48
00:01:52,142 --> 00:01:54,265
It's a legal restraining order.
Read it for yourself!

49
00:01:54,363 --> 00:01:55,164
That don't mean you can tie him up.

50
00:01:55,269 --> 00:01:56,539
Man, I know that,
and you know that, but...

51
00:01:56,638 --> 00:01:58,579
Damien! We got a situation.

52
00:01:58,745 --> 00:02:00,429
He's in a state. He's volatile.

53
00:02:00,568 --> 00:02:01,753
Look, I'm afraid he's
gonna hurt his wife.

54
00:02:01,856 --> 00:02:03,073
She's the one who got
the restraining order.

55
00:02:03,167 --> 00:02:04,276
It doesn't matter. Listen to me.

56
00:02:04,392 --> 00:02:06,778
I need you to explain
to him in legal talk

57
00:02:06,887 --> 00:02:08,245
that he got to abide by this...
I'm not a lawyer.

58
00:02:08,353 --> 00:02:10,801
Man, Jenna says you're like a
paralegal. Just tell the man.

59
00:02:10,894 --> 00:02:13,191
We got a situation. He is volatile.

60
00:02:20,237 --> 00:02:21,909
Sir, this is a valid,

61
00:02:22,061 --> 00:02:24,204
legally-enforceable
restraining order, understand?

62
00:02:24,302 --> 00:02:26,281
If you do not comply with
this court order, sir,

63
00:02:26,373 --> 00:02:28,853
it is a punishable offense for
which you might be imprisoned.

64
00:02:28,959 --> 00:02:30,866
I have advised Damien
to keep you restrained

65
00:02:30,977 --> 00:02:32,316
until you become less volatile

66
00:02:32,417 --> 00:02:34,718
and are willing to comply with
the terms of this court order.

67
00:02:34,768 --> 00:02:35,670
You got it?

68
00:02:37,618 --> 00:02:39,022
I think he got it.

69
00:02:40,072 --> 00:02:42,112
Hey, Harry. Adam.

70
00:02:43,416 --> 00:02:44,825
Got a situation.

71
00:02:48,528 --> 00:02:49,047
I know.

72
00:02:49,155 --> 00:02:51,636
Oh, I don't think
you have any idea.

73
00:02:51,752 --> 00:02:54,137
In the storage room. Now.

74
00:02:54,423 --> 00:02:57,282
Aiding and abetting, false
imprisonment, maybe kidnapping.

75
00:02:57,417 --> 00:02:57,940
Harry, I get it.

76
00:02:58,034 --> 00:03:00,126
Not to mention the
potential liability.

77
00:03:00,268 --> 00:03:03,708
You never, ever give
legal advice to anybody.

78
00:03:03,796 --> 00:03:04,450
Look, Harry, it's just that

79
00:03:04,565 --> 00:03:05,844
Damien said the man was a threat.

80
00:03:05,955 --> 00:03:07,511
I don't care. And rule number two,

81
00:03:07,656 --> 00:03:10,052
you will not be taking
your cues from Damien.

82
00:03:11,255 --> 00:03:12,180
Okay.

83
00:03:13,914 --> 00:03:15,645
Hello. Hi. Hello. Look, Jenna,

84
00:03:15,767 --> 00:03:16,610
she followed me home.

85
00:03:16,752 --> 00:03:18,749
Just as you left,
we got served with these papers.

86
00:03:18,872 --> 00:03:20,635
She's going into court tomorrow.

87
00:03:22,779 --> 00:03:24,869
They're going for a
declaratory judgment.

88
00:03:24,975 --> 00:03:27,136
Basically, they're asking
a judge to say the grounds

89
00:03:27,256 --> 00:03:29,529
for firing her are unlawful.

90
00:03:30,055 --> 00:03:31,334
They can do that without a trial?

91
00:03:31,479 --> 00:03:32,493
A judge can just rule against us

92
00:03:32,619 --> 00:03:33,883
without even hearing our defense?

93
00:03:33,969 --> 00:03:35,078
Look, it's really not a big deal.

94
00:03:35,184 --> 00:03:37,052
We'll simply appear in court...

95
00:03:37,173 --> 00:03:39,001
That was Harry.
We keep her in storage.

96
00:03:39,078 --> 00:03:41,276
Oppose this motion, and...

97
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,466
She's represented
by Thomas Jefferson.

98
00:03:46,586 --> 00:03:50,430
The guy feeds off of cases
where he can self-promote.

99
00:03:51,088 --> 00:03:52,726
And he's yelling again.

100
00:03:52,853 --> 00:03:54,718
Let me take a meeting with the guy.
If I don't like

101
00:03:54,835 --> 00:03:56,650
what he has to say,
we just go into court,

102
00:03:56,774 --> 00:03:57,409
simple as that.

103
00:03:57,505 --> 00:03:58,726
Everything will be fine.

104
00:03:59,715 --> 00:04:00,868
He doesn't believe you.

105
00:04:00,959 --> 00:04:02,186
Look, Steve.

106
00:04:02,278 --> 00:04:02,942
Is it Steve?

107
00:04:03,028 --> 00:04:04,793
Why won't you tell me your name?

108
00:04:05,402 --> 00:04:06,758
It's Chunhua.

109
00:04:07,158 --> 00:04:08,413
Chunhua.

110
00:04:09,173 --> 00:04:10,630
That's really beautiful.

111
00:04:12,377 --> 00:04:13,923
Fung, listen to me.

112
00:04:14,059 --> 00:04:15,967
One way or another,
I will make this go away.

113
00:04:16,108 --> 00:04:17,509
That's my promise.

114
00:04:20,830 --> 00:04:21,908
It's no big deal, Paul.

115
00:04:22,018 --> 00:04:23,623
You write these
policies in your sleep.

116
00:04:23,719 --> 00:04:25,862
Excuse me,
most malpractice policies

117
00:04:25,986 --> 00:04:27,480
don't contemplate a
prospective client

118
00:04:27,589 --> 00:04:31,270
being subject to death
by stabbing or gunshot.

119
00:04:31,361 --> 00:04:32,873
You work in a high-risk
neighborhood.

120
00:04:32,986 --> 00:04:35,328
The bad section is at least
a block over. Ours...

121
00:04:35,442 --> 00:04:37,127
Yes, well,
murderers have been known

122
00:04:37,239 --> 00:04:38,914
to take the occasional stroll.

123
00:04:39,006 --> 00:04:41,477
I've had a homeowner's policy
with you people for years.

124
00:04:41,625 --> 00:04:44,516
Harry, you leave your
cushy practice for...

125
00:04:45,150 --> 00:04:46,542
What are you doing?

126
00:04:46,637 --> 00:04:50,926
Paul, if I knew, I'd tell you.
It's possible I've lost my mind.

127
00:04:51,284 --> 00:04:54,550
The good news is I can still
practice law as a lunatic,

128
00:04:54,648 --> 00:04:56,269
perhaps even more effectively.

129
00:04:56,599 --> 00:05:00,356
But I can't do it legally
without malpractice insurance.

130
00:05:02,708 --> 00:05:03,826
Harry.

131
00:05:03,940 --> 00:05:05,538
Much better tone.

132
00:05:05,805 --> 00:05:07,944
The neighborhood is
a little dangerous,

133
00:05:08,026 --> 00:05:11,080
but it just got a huge windfall
that will make it less so.

134
00:05:11,190 --> 00:05:12,865
The windfall being...?

135
00:05:13,012 --> 00:05:14,244
Me.

136
00:05:20,547 --> 00:05:21,458
Done?

137
00:05:21,737 --> 00:05:23,217
I had to promise to sleep with him,

138
00:05:23,313 --> 00:05:25,177
but yeah, we got our insurance.

139
00:05:25,293 --> 00:05:26,729
We're off and limping.

140
00:05:27,409 --> 00:05:28,396
What's with him?

141
00:05:28,488 --> 00:05:30,013
The Laundromat case he took...

142
00:05:30,100 --> 00:05:32,238
the other lawyer
is Tommy Jefferson.

143
00:05:32,342 --> 00:05:34,423
That clown with the TV commercials?

144
00:05:34,532 --> 00:05:36,715
He'll make such a
meal of this case.

145
00:05:36,848 --> 00:05:38,475
And a snack of me.

146
00:05:42,665 --> 00:05:43,808
What are you doing?

147
00:05:44,734 --> 00:05:46,906
Rachel. Hey. Hi.

148
00:05:47,014 --> 00:05:49,179
Harry, this is, uh, Rachel Miller.

149
00:05:49,264 --> 00:05:51,494
Uh, Jenna, Malcolm.

150
00:05:51,596 --> 00:05:53,348
Yeah, hi, hi, and hi.

151
00:05:53,464 --> 00:05:55,391
So, this is what you do?
I break up with you

152
00:05:55,496 --> 00:05:57,177
and you commit... I don't even know

153
00:05:57,307 --> 00:05:58,127
what this is you're committing.

154
00:05:58,214 --> 00:05:59,698
I switched jobs. What?

155
00:05:59,785 --> 00:06:02,134
I'm the first person to do that? Adam,
don't be a dope.

156
00:06:02,253 --> 00:06:04,025
You are running out on
a life you're mad at.

157
00:06:04,131 --> 00:06:06,442
No, I'm only mad at you,
actually, so...

158
00:06:06,545 --> 00:06:08,626
Okay. Whatever.
Look, go get your real job back

159
00:06:08,768 --> 00:06:09,573
before it's too late.

160
00:06:09,697 --> 00:06:11,098
This is my real job.

161
00:06:11,230 --> 00:06:12,369
Oh, my God.

162
00:06:12,490 --> 00:06:14,103
Harry, we have a rat.

163
00:06:17,315 --> 00:06:18,825
Harry! The hell was that?

164
00:06:18,940 --> 00:06:21,925
Not anymore. Malcolm,
you're on dead-rat duty.

165
00:06:22,044 --> 00:06:23,273
Alert PETA.

166
00:06:23,799 --> 00:06:25,230
I'm sorry,
I didn't catch your name.

167
00:06:25,310 --> 00:06:27,727
Rachel Miller.
That is a lovely gun,

168
00:06:27,816 --> 00:06:28,933
I'm sure you've been told.

169
00:06:29,025 --> 00:06:30,545
Rachel, it was so
nice to see you again.

170
00:06:30,635 --> 00:06:33,106
Adam, don't do this.

171
00:06:33,231 --> 00:06:35,329
Who in the hell do
you think you are?

172
00:06:35,415 --> 00:06:37,127
Coming in here, opening up

173
00:06:37,213 --> 00:06:41,463
a fancy law office, in one of
your la-di-dah shoe stores?

174
00:06:41,573 --> 00:06:43,603
I'm sorry.
You seem really mistaken.

175
00:06:43,727 --> 00:06:46,900
And sweet. I think
you want gun-lady.

176
00:06:48,111 --> 00:06:49,830
Are you coming or not?

177
00:06:49,990 --> 00:06:51,101
Not.

178
00:06:54,641 --> 00:06:55,930
Can I help you?

179
00:06:56,036 --> 00:06:58,081
Are you Harry A. Korn?

180
00:06:58,239 --> 00:07:00,024
Et. Harriet Korn.

181
00:07:00,126 --> 00:07:02,407
Well, you can help by
clearing your fat ass

182
00:07:02,502 --> 00:07:03,950
out of this neighborhood,

183
00:07:04,087 --> 00:07:05,057
Harriet.

184
00:07:05,175 --> 00:07:06,542
Yes, I'm terribly sorry,

185
00:07:06,637 --> 00:07:08,103
but, for moving purposes,

186
00:07:08,263 --> 00:07:11,866
my fat ass requires advance notice.

187
00:07:11,964 --> 00:07:13,331
Would there be anything else?

188
00:07:13,446 --> 00:07:15,504
Don't you condescend me, either.

189
00:07:15,622 --> 00:07:18,518
People like you move in.
People like me get pushed out.

190
00:07:18,632 --> 00:07:20,228
You drive up our rents.

191
00:07:20,359 --> 00:07:22,660
You're just a dirty
block-buster is all.

192
00:07:22,764 --> 00:07:24,232
Yes, and I'm happy

193
00:07:24,374 --> 00:07:27,790
to discuss the relative
merits of gentrification if...

194
00:07:27,894 --> 00:07:30,050
Oh, dear, what's this?

195
00:07:30,361 --> 00:07:32,430
I can feel my fat ass

196
00:07:32,592 --> 00:07:34,292
continental drifting to the door.

197
00:07:34,407 --> 00:07:36,281
I must be going to let you out.

198
00:07:36,375 --> 00:07:37,751
It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms...

199
00:07:37,858 --> 00:07:39,904
Do you have a name,
or do people simply refer

200
00:07:39,981 --> 00:07:41,310
to you only with adjectives?

201
00:07:41,401 --> 00:07:43,905
As a matter of fact,
I need a lawyer.

202
00:07:44,009 --> 00:07:46,389
Do you, now? Kids trying
to commit you again?

203
00:07:46,517 --> 00:07:47,741
I'm in a trial.

204
00:07:47,876 --> 00:07:50,889
My public defender
says I got to do time,

205
00:07:51,008 --> 00:07:53,181
which is the one thing I ain't got.

206
00:07:53,300 --> 00:07:54,262
The D.A. Is

207
00:07:54,398 --> 00:07:58,225
that Peyton fellow they
tell me you just beat.

208
00:07:58,381 --> 00:08:01,078
Well, I need you
to beat him for me.

209
00:08:03,676 --> 00:08:06,091
$26 in that.

210
00:08:08,326 --> 00:08:09,920
It's all I got.

211
00:08:10,825 --> 00:08:12,820
What are you being charged with?

212
00:08:12,933 --> 00:08:13,881
Armed robbery.

213
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,922
Armed robbery? Are you serious?

214
00:08:16,064 --> 00:08:17,190
I need to eat.

215
00:08:17,301 --> 00:08:18,720
So sit your ass down

216
00:08:18,836 --> 00:08:20,794
so we can talk.

217
00:08:22,943 --> 00:08:24,859
Listen, Ms. Armed-Robber.

218
00:08:24,970 --> 00:08:28,942
Nicholson. Anna Nicholson.

219
00:08:29,053 --> 00:08:33,146
You want to be a lawyer in
this neighborhood, child?

220
00:08:34,831 --> 00:08:36,350
Then you can start out

221
00:08:36,464 --> 00:08:41,937
by being a lawyer in
this neighborhood.

222
00:08:44,619 --> 00:08:46,952
Sit your ass down.

223
00:08:58,011 --> 00:08:59,254
If the trial's already begun,

224
00:08:59,377 --> 00:09:00,708
how could you possibly...

225
00:09:00,905 --> 00:09:02,345
The robbery was
caught on video tape.

226
00:09:02,444 --> 00:09:03,833
It's not like you have a defense.

227
00:09:03,925 --> 00:09:07,074
I have the "She's an 87-year-old
grandmother" Defense,

228
00:09:07,174 --> 00:09:09,089
which, by the way,
is one of my favorites.

229
00:09:10,548 --> 00:09:12,157
And she's back.

230
00:09:12,804 --> 00:09:13,655
Is Adam here?

231
00:09:13,752 --> 00:09:16,086
He's not, at the moment.
Copies of these, please.

232
00:09:16,931 --> 00:09:17,944
Could I be of help?

233
00:09:18,049 --> 00:09:20,058
Well, I-I don't know what you knew

234
00:09:20,171 --> 00:09:21,678
about him before you hired him.

235
00:09:21,766 --> 00:09:24,287
I didn't hire him.
He came here and hired himself.

236
00:09:24,688 --> 00:09:27,496
The thing is, Adam is
a serial overreactor.

237
00:09:27,649 --> 00:09:29,161
He once stubbed his toe on a lamp

238
00:09:29,295 --> 00:09:30,297
and he wanted to move.

239
00:09:30,420 --> 00:09:31,803
It's just who he is.

240
00:09:32,004 --> 00:09:34,948
He either runs away
or reinvents, or...

241
00:09:35,052 --> 00:09:37,189
I'm sensing he's running from you?

242
00:09:38,429 --> 00:09:39,637
I work at his old firm.

243
00:09:39,749 --> 00:09:41,319
We broke up, like, a month ago.

244
00:09:41,443 --> 00:09:43,584
I'm on the 28th floor.
He was on the 27th.

245
00:09:43,697 --> 00:09:46,026
I mean, I was told he was
taking the stairs just to avoid

246
00:09:46,134 --> 00:09:48,789
seeing me in the elevator,
so I have a good idea...

247
00:09:48,909 --> 00:09:50,038
Can I stop you one second?

248
00:09:50,193 --> 00:09:51,765
'Cause this might be important.

249
00:09:51,885 --> 00:09:53,495
I've stopped listening.

250
00:09:55,407 --> 00:09:57,445
Well, if you could convince him

251
00:09:57,578 --> 00:09:59,843
to leave, I will make sure
he gets his old job back.

252
00:09:59,964 --> 00:10:01,826
Maybe I don't want him to leave.

253
00:10:02,073 --> 00:10:03,040
He's a good lawyer.

254
00:10:03,134 --> 00:10:04,302
Did you know that?

255
00:10:08,444 --> 00:10:09,999
The, uh... the book on you...

256
00:10:10,084 --> 00:10:10,770
Never read it.

257
00:10:10,857 --> 00:10:13,930
Well, you are a great attorney.

258
00:10:13,997 --> 00:10:15,956
But, you know,
you're a horrible mentor.

259
00:10:16,069 --> 00:10:18,746
I mean, you've never counseled
or tutored a younger associate,

260
00:10:18,828 --> 00:10:20,783
so the chances of... Yes,
and if you'd bothered

261
00:10:20,875 --> 00:10:23,659
to do your homework,
you'd know the simple reason why.

262
00:10:23,777 --> 00:10:24,476
Which is?

263
00:10:24,545 --> 00:10:25,915
I hate young lawyers.

264
00:10:26,007 --> 00:10:27,392
All they want is to get somewhere.

265
00:10:27,510 --> 00:10:28,826
Which, if they knew
where they were headed,

266
00:10:28,941 --> 00:10:30,423
they wouldn't be in such a rush.

267
00:10:30,513 --> 00:10:32,638
Ms. Korn, all I'm saying is

268
00:10:32,759 --> 00:10:34,973
Adam has done something rash here.

269
00:10:35,115 --> 00:10:38,133
And I want to help him undo
it before it's too late.

270
00:10:39,330 --> 00:10:41,892
I've got a little flash for you.

271
00:10:43,100 --> 00:10:44,796
Adam doesn't want to go.

272
00:10:45,134 --> 00:10:46,883
He likes it here.

273
00:10:51,449 --> 00:10:53,521
First, let me say thank
you for meeting me.

274
00:10:53,636 --> 00:10:56,788
I've always been a-a big fan,
huge fan.

275
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:57,888
As you should be.

276
00:10:58,031 --> 00:11:00,220
Look, kid... Can I call you kid?
'Cause you look like a kid.

277
00:11:00,345 --> 00:11:01,957
Well... What are you
doing on this case?

278
00:11:02,071 --> 00:11:04,376
This thing is a bus
that will run you over.

279
00:11:04,534 --> 00:11:06,590
China? That's not the way you
want to begin your career.

280
00:11:06,735 --> 00:11:08,764
Going to bat for
Communist Chinese China,

281
00:11:08,898 --> 00:11:11,531
lead-paint export capital
of the world, China.

282
00:11:11,657 --> 00:11:12,825
The evil empire.

283
00:11:12,915 --> 00:11:14,081
Add to that my client.

284
00:11:14,155 --> 00:11:15,625
Could she be any more sympathetic?

285
00:11:15,729 --> 00:11:17,428
She wants to have a baby.

286
00:11:17,657 --> 00:11:19,721
China, baby. China, baby.

287
00:11:19,821 --> 00:11:21,821
Gee, I wonder who the
jury's gonna side with.

288
00:11:21,891 --> 00:11:23,834
Plus, there's me. I never lose.

289
00:11:23,976 --> 00:11:25,731
Well... I'm Tommy Jefferson, kid.

290
00:11:25,821 --> 00:11:28,256
I chew lawyers up and spit 'em out,
and I do it publicly.

291
00:11:28,358 --> 00:11:30,106
In the spotlight.
Look at my office here.

292
00:11:30,268 --> 00:11:32,983
It's pre-lit for press
conferences. On, off.

293
00:11:33,078 --> 00:11:36,421
On, off. On, off.
Run away as fast as you can.

294
00:11:36,563 --> 00:11:37,629
I'm not running, sir.

295
00:11:37,749 --> 00:11:38,543
Then you're a dope.

296
00:11:38,678 --> 00:11:39,763
I have a slam-dunk against a dope.

297
00:11:39,855 --> 00:11:41,894
Where's the challenge?
Are you flexible, kid?

298
00:11:42,028 --> 00:11:42,960
Am I flexible? Yes.

299
00:11:43,110 --> 00:11:44,934
Can you bend over and kiss
your legal career good-bye?

300
00:11:45,063 --> 00:11:45,859
Because that's what'll happen

301
00:11:45,984 --> 00:11:47,428
if you even bother
to show up tomorrow.

302
00:11:47,538 --> 00:11:49,599
Who do you work for?
I work for Harriet Korn.

303
00:11:49,742 --> 00:11:52,820
Harriet Korn?
The Harry Korn? Mm-hmm.

304
00:11:52,962 --> 00:11:54,448
Wow. Heard she went
off the deep end.

305
00:11:54,596 --> 00:11:56,174
That must have made
a hell of a splash.

306
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:57,805
Tell you what.
You want to settle this case?

307
00:11:57,927 --> 00:11:59,753
Come back with the big Kahuna.
I don't deal with kids.

308
00:11:59,865 --> 00:12:01,465
We'll talk. Look at the wall.

309
00:12:04,786 --> 00:12:07,593
Something to show your
grandkids. Now beat it.

310
00:12:15,579 --> 00:12:17,647
I offered the lady three years.
She turned it down.

311
00:12:17,782 --> 00:12:19,390
I understand, but come on.

312
00:12:19,518 --> 00:12:22,219
Is society really served by
locking up an 87-year-old...?

313
00:12:22,297 --> 00:12:24,523
Society is served by
locking up armed robbers.

314
00:12:24,645 --> 00:12:25,877
The same rules apply
to the old ones.

315
00:12:25,984 --> 00:12:27,759
It must be nice to see
everything in black and white.

316
00:12:27,874 --> 00:12:29,595
Counsel, look, for what she did,

317
00:12:29,726 --> 00:12:30,944
she'd probably get
six to eight years.

318
00:12:31,068 --> 00:12:32,287
You know it. I know it.
You know it.

319
00:12:32,399 --> 00:12:33,007
I'm offering three.

320
00:12:33,145 --> 00:12:34,880
Three years for a woman of that age

321
00:12:34,951 --> 00:12:36,681
is the equivalent
of a life sentence.

322
00:12:36,790 --> 00:12:39,648
She robbed the guy at gunpoint.
Three years is a gift.

323
00:12:39,778 --> 00:12:41,940
You want to make me an
ogre or a-a bogeyman

324
00:12:42,066 --> 00:12:44,199
or, uh... What did
you call me before?

325
00:12:44,340 --> 00:12:46,501
Asshole. Yeah.
Want me to be that? Fine.

326
00:12:46,613 --> 00:12:48,159
But why don't you
poll 50 other D.A.S

327
00:12:48,259 --> 00:12:49,364
and 50 defense attorneys?

328
00:12:49,489 --> 00:12:51,212
They will all tell you
exactly the same thing.

329
00:12:51,328 --> 00:12:53,090
You will not do better
than three years.

330
00:12:53,206 --> 00:12:54,728
You really want to help this lady?

331
00:12:54,962 --> 00:12:57,092
Make her understand that.

332
00:13:10,381 --> 00:13:12,174
So where are we?

333
00:13:12,797 --> 00:13:14,754
Still at three. Mm.

334
00:13:15,156 --> 00:13:18,232
That's what the public
defender got me for free.

335
00:13:18,396 --> 00:13:20,728
Well, I only got a
sock full of quarters.

336
00:13:21,071 --> 00:13:23,906
It's not like I shot somebody.

337
00:13:25,305 --> 00:13:26,901
Anna, look at me now.

338
00:13:28,167 --> 00:13:29,438
Aggravated robbery...

339
00:13:29,556 --> 00:13:32,079
which this was...
nets you three-to-ten.

340
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,004
The fact that you showed a gun

341
00:13:34,116 --> 00:13:35,654
gets a separate,
gun-specific charge.

342
00:13:35,753 --> 00:13:37,541
That alone brings another three.

343
00:13:37,675 --> 00:13:40,466
You could possibly
get 13 years here.

344
00:13:40,573 --> 00:13:43,503
More likely six. Less than that...

345
00:13:44,893 --> 00:13:47,909
Cincinnati takes gun
charges very seriously.

346
00:13:48,020 --> 00:13:50,601
Which is why,
with an offer of three,

347
00:13:51,175 --> 00:13:53,291
I think you need to accept it.

348
00:13:58,469 --> 00:13:59,692
I can't.

349
00:14:00,530 --> 00:14:03,846
I can't die in prison, Ms. Korn.

350
00:14:04,126 --> 00:14:06,951
There are a lot of ways
to go out, but not that.

351
00:14:09,068 --> 00:14:10,954
Anything but that.

352
00:14:23,203 --> 00:14:24,620
I'm told he likes
to make an entrance.

353
00:14:24,737 --> 00:14:26,632
If he doesn't make it in
the next 15 seconds...

354
00:14:26,742 --> 00:14:28,992
He'll be here. Okay, then.

355
00:14:29,082 --> 00:14:30,446
Harriet Korn.

356
00:14:30,597 --> 00:14:33,186
Wow. Tommy Jefferson.

357
00:14:33,299 --> 00:14:34,968
It's an absolute pleasure.

358
00:14:35,081 --> 00:14:36,250
What do you know about me?

359
00:14:37,033 --> 00:14:38,661
I think enough. Well, you know

360
00:14:38,844 --> 00:14:40,538
I'm famous for
winning with nothing.

361
00:14:40,675 --> 00:14:41,656
I can walk into a courtroom

362
00:14:41,770 --> 00:14:43,308
shooting blanks,
and still win the battle.

363
00:14:43,425 --> 00:14:46,133
Yes. I can picture you
shooting blanks, actually.

364
00:14:46,681 --> 00:14:49,033
That was good. China. Baby.

365
00:14:49,109 --> 00:14:50,686
China. Baby. He likes to say that.

366
00:14:50,795 --> 00:14:52,264
The issue isn't whether I win here.

367
00:14:52,380 --> 00:14:55,139
We both know I do.
The real question is how much.

368
00:14:55,264 --> 00:14:57,468
How punitive will a
jury be to a foreigner

369
00:14:57,592 --> 00:14:58,502
from a Communist country

370
00:14:58,629 --> 00:15:01,411
who fires a young woman
for wanting to give birth?

371
00:15:02,014 --> 00:15:05,171
I have in my hand... A number.

372
00:15:05,302 --> 00:15:06,664
It is a non-negotiable number.

373
00:15:06,803 --> 00:15:07,634
You and your client need to look

374
00:15:07,781 --> 00:15:10,946
at this number for what it is...
an opportunity.

375
00:15:11,072 --> 00:15:12,915
An out. Because let's face it.

376
00:15:13,048 --> 00:15:14,666
Were this case to go public,

377
00:15:14,803 --> 00:15:17,293
the wrath your client would
incur from the media,

378
00:15:17,435 --> 00:15:19,868
the citizenry... his doors
will be closing, Harriet.

379
00:15:19,991 --> 00:15:21,023
His doors should close.

380
00:15:21,141 --> 00:15:23,162
They would close, but for...

381
00:15:23,294 --> 00:15:26,408
this opportunity which I'm
about to present you with.

382
00:15:32,967 --> 00:15:34,594
You have presented us
with an opportunity

383
00:15:34,706 --> 00:15:36,546
of one-point-two million dollars.

384
00:15:36,669 --> 00:15:38,193
I've got a homerun here, Harry.

385
00:15:38,333 --> 00:15:40,113
It's a contingency
lawyer's wet dream.

386
00:15:40,241 --> 00:15:41,460
Thank you for your time.

387
00:15:41,592 --> 00:15:43,947
It's a pass. Adam?

388
00:15:44,069 --> 00:15:45,138
Harry.

389
00:15:46,739 --> 00:15:48,618
Many lawyers have dismissed me

390
00:15:48,758 --> 00:15:51,246
as just a full-of-crap
cartoonish buffoon.

391
00:15:51,375 --> 00:15:52,674
I can't imagine.

392
00:15:52,787 --> 00:15:54,615
Those lawyers paid for that.

393
00:15:54,901 --> 00:15:56,665
They paid dearly.

394
00:15:57,044 --> 00:16:00,616
It would be a big mistake for
you to dismiss me, Harry.

395
00:16:03,872 --> 00:16:06,496
Thank you for the opportunity,
Mr. Jefferson.

396
00:16:06,828 --> 00:16:09,605
We'll leave you alone
to enjoy your wet dream.

397
00:16:15,609 --> 00:16:18,193
You can see quite clearly
the gun in her hand

398
00:16:18,326 --> 00:16:19,675
pointed at my head.

399
00:16:19,796 --> 00:16:21,706
And the defendant, that woman...

400
00:16:22,286 --> 00:16:23,891
Well, there...
the woman who robbed you...

401
00:16:24,064 --> 00:16:26,056
did she say anything to you,
sir, as she trained

402
00:16:26,185 --> 00:16:27,045
the loaded weapon at your head?

403
00:16:27,164 --> 00:16:29,096
Oh, she sure did. She said,

404
00:16:29,216 --> 00:16:30,457
"Empty the register,

405
00:16:30,589 --> 00:16:32,790
or I'll blow your head right off."

406
00:16:32,902 --> 00:16:34,818
And at this point,
you gave her the money?

407
00:16:34,975 --> 00:16:37,029
I did, and then she walked off.

408
00:16:37,603 --> 00:16:39,057
Thank you, sir.

409
00:16:39,170 --> 00:16:40,339
Nothing further.

410
00:16:42,979 --> 00:16:44,911
I have no questions.

411
00:16:45,964 --> 00:16:47,308
The hell was that?

412
00:16:47,439 --> 00:16:49,585
I can't cross-examine a videotape.

413
00:16:49,719 --> 00:16:52,579
That was for crap,
that's what that was.

414
00:16:52,714 --> 00:16:54,710
I want my sock back.

415
00:16:58,085 --> 00:17:00,040
I've never tried a
case against him.

416
00:17:00,119 --> 00:17:01,598
But you co-counseled one.

417
00:17:01,704 --> 00:17:03,147
Just tell me.

418
00:17:03,269 --> 00:17:04,734
What should I do?

419
00:17:06,335 --> 00:17:07,822
Okay, um...

420
00:17:08,662 --> 00:17:10,157
Look, the thing about Tommy

421
00:17:10,258 --> 00:17:12,227
is he's gonna treat you
like you don't exist,

422
00:17:12,342 --> 00:17:15,171
so your best bet is,
just interrupt him at every turn.

423
00:17:15,302 --> 00:17:16,198
If he tries to shout you down,

424
00:17:16,321 --> 00:17:18,342
just keep going right back at him.

425
00:17:18,470 --> 00:17:19,847
I mean, he's got a temper,
and he's been known

426
00:17:19,956 --> 00:17:21,795
to completely blow when
people take him on.

427
00:17:21,942 --> 00:17:23,718
Oh. Okay.

428
00:17:24,196 --> 00:17:26,306
Now, can we talk about your case?

429
00:17:26,771 --> 00:17:29,452
China's one-child policy? Really?

430
00:17:29,583 --> 00:17:31,635
Well, as controversial
as it may be...

431
00:17:31,743 --> 00:17:32,896
She's pretty.

432
00:17:34,008 --> 00:17:35,770
The Chunhua girl.

433
00:17:35,892 --> 00:17:37,813
She's pretty, isn't she?

434
00:17:41,027 --> 00:17:42,435
This is so you.

435
00:17:42,536 --> 00:17:44,394
To go seek affirmation
in the eyes of a...

436
00:17:44,529 --> 00:17:46,547
I'm not doing that.

437
00:17:46,813 --> 00:17:47,856
Okay.

438
00:17:48,037 --> 00:17:50,363
Um... I'm going to offend you now,

439
00:17:50,482 --> 00:17:52,070
but according to the
ex-girlfriend's handbook,

440
00:17:52,203 --> 00:17:53,652
I'm allowed to do that. Hmm.

441
00:17:53,792 --> 00:17:55,873
Now, my bet is,
you're gonna leave this...

442
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,361
I don't know... what was it,
a law firm,

443
00:17:57,492 --> 00:17:59,179
or a shoe store? I couldn't tell.

444
00:17:59,325 --> 00:18:01,626
Whatever it was,
you'll leave this place,

445
00:18:01,730 --> 00:18:03,786
to the detriment of
others counting on you.

446
00:18:03,904 --> 00:18:06,367
And as for this Chunhua girl?

447
00:18:06,497 --> 00:18:08,658
Adam, you need to grow up.
You really mean

448
00:18:08,824 --> 00:18:11,136
to sit here and lecture me
about how I live my life?

449
00:18:11,257 --> 00:18:14,543
You left a well-paying job
to go work in a ghetto.

450
00:18:14,669 --> 00:18:16,423
You're in crisis.

451
00:18:16,646 --> 00:18:18,036
And your parents called me,
by the way.

452
00:18:18,135 --> 00:18:19,611
They're worried, too.

453
00:18:20,455 --> 00:18:21,877
Hey, come on.

454
00:18:22,058 --> 00:18:23,307
This is me here.

455
00:18:23,443 --> 00:18:26,544
I'm fine. Okay?

456
00:18:27,218 --> 00:18:28,518
I'm fine.

457
00:18:35,322 --> 00:18:36,979
Are you seeing anybody?

458
00:18:37,296 --> 00:18:39,337
Well, actually, I'm between
therapists right now, but...

459
00:18:39,428 --> 00:18:40,389
That's not what I meant.

460
00:18:40,479 --> 00:18:43,029
Are you seeing anybody?

461
00:18:45,423 --> 00:18:47,091
Well, actually,
I've-I've met someone.

462
00:18:47,207 --> 00:18:49,155
Yes. That's great.

463
00:18:49,287 --> 00:18:50,316
Here you go.

464
00:18:51,024 --> 00:18:52,393
I'm happy for you.

465
00:18:54,282 --> 00:18:55,727
That's great.

466
00:18:59,696 --> 00:19:01,063
I should go.

467
00:19:01,534 --> 00:19:03,491
I got to get back to...

468
00:19:04,369 --> 00:19:05,053
Court.

469
00:19:05,215 --> 00:19:06,585
Court, yes.

470
00:19:07,531 --> 00:19:09,207
Thanks.

471
00:19:19,561 --> 00:19:23,236
I was barely squeezing
by as it was.

472
00:19:23,358 --> 00:19:26,326
Get some from Social
Security, not much.

473
00:19:26,457 --> 00:19:30,954
My son, he lives in California,
he had been sending me money,

474
00:19:31,074 --> 00:19:33,074
but then he lost his job.

475
00:19:33,318 --> 00:19:34,888
And then I got sick.

476
00:19:35,036 --> 00:19:37,313
I ain't got no healthcare.

477
00:19:37,442 --> 00:19:39,328
Next thing I know, I'm broke.

478
00:19:39,452 --> 00:19:40,652
And starving.

479
00:19:40,762 --> 00:19:44,095
I had no money, not even for food.

480
00:19:44,231 --> 00:19:45,540
So what did you do?

481
00:19:45,681 --> 00:19:48,049
Uh, first, I wrote my Congressman.

482
00:19:48,165 --> 00:19:51,083
Asked him for a little
of that stimulus money.

483
00:19:51,221 --> 00:19:55,010
He sent back some kind of
form letter asking me to give

484
00:19:55,130 --> 00:19:58,595
to his campaign... asshole.

485
00:19:59,049 --> 00:20:00,486
Sorry.

486
00:20:00,986 --> 00:20:02,597
Then I asked neighbors.

487
00:20:02,735 --> 00:20:06,144
They helped for a while,
but most of them was broke,

488
00:20:06,281 --> 00:20:10,280
so then, I resorted to
what they call self-help.

489
00:20:10,401 --> 00:20:11,207
You robbed a store.

490
00:20:11,315 --> 00:20:14,137
Not just a store. That store.

491
00:20:14,259 --> 00:20:16,547
The liquor store. Damn right.

492
00:20:16,666 --> 00:20:20,019
I was sick of their asses
selling to underage kids.

493
00:20:20,177 --> 00:20:22,236
Drug pushers is what they are.

494
00:20:22,375 --> 00:20:24,265
And he knows it. Don't you?

495
00:20:24,396 --> 00:20:26,140
Objection. Sustained.

496
00:20:26,256 --> 00:20:27,861
Ms. Nicholson, you certainly know

497
00:20:28,016 --> 00:20:29,972
that what you did
was against the law.

498
00:20:30,120 --> 00:20:31,555
Sure, I know.

499
00:20:31,696 --> 00:20:33,738
But I'll tell you
what else is wrong.

500
00:20:33,869 --> 00:20:36,766
People are starving, dying,

501
00:20:36,895 --> 00:20:39,501
and the government
bails out Wall Street,

502
00:20:39,647 --> 00:20:41,689
the ones who caused this mess.

503
00:20:41,854 --> 00:20:43,294
Well, what about us?

504
00:20:45,020 --> 00:20:46,474
Where's mine?

505
00:20:47,218 --> 00:20:48,282
So, you were starving.

506
00:20:48,434 --> 00:20:50,322
Your Congressman wouldn't
send you any stimulus money.

507
00:20:50,465 --> 00:20:51,671
So you did the next best thing...

508
00:20:51,807 --> 00:20:53,056
you knocked over a liquor store.

509
00:20:53,189 --> 00:20:55,822
Well, I hope I made it
sound better than that.

510
00:20:55,993 --> 00:20:57,878
Well, actually, you did.
You made it almost

511
00:20:58,003 --> 00:20:59,985
sound adorable.
You did a terrific job.

512
00:21:00,150 --> 00:21:01,062
I'm just having a hard time

513
00:21:01,205 --> 00:21:02,991
reconciling your rendition of it

514
00:21:03,147 --> 00:21:05,547
with the footage I
saw on the monitor.

515
00:21:05,699 --> 00:21:08,532
Well, that's 'cause
you're a douchebag.

516
00:21:10,281 --> 00:21:12,428
You know, I actually am.

517
00:21:12,556 --> 00:21:13,396
You got me there.

518
00:21:13,532 --> 00:21:16,196
I can be a bit of a douchebag,
I'll admit it.

519
00:21:17,776 --> 00:21:19,397
And you're an armed robber.

520
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,164
Aren't you? And not just that.

521
00:21:21,302 --> 00:21:22,221
You seem to be a proud one.

522
00:21:22,346 --> 00:21:25,167
No apologies whatsoever.

523
00:21:26,138 --> 00:21:27,843
You put a gun to an innocent man.

524
00:21:27,969 --> 00:21:29,356
You threatened to
blow his head off.

525
00:21:29,483 --> 00:21:33,041
And you sit there a proud,
proud woman.

526
00:21:36,529 --> 00:21:37,948
Mr. Peyton...

527
00:21:39,548 --> 00:21:44,522
I assure you,
I am not a proud woman.

528
00:21:46,015 --> 00:21:48,827
I had to beg my
neighbors for money.

529
00:21:48,973 --> 00:21:51,539
Then I take to begging
in the street.

530
00:21:51,689 --> 00:21:55,824
The things I've had to do
these last 12 months to...

531
00:22:01,613 --> 00:22:05,181
I'm anything but proud.

532
00:22:20,629 --> 00:22:22,823
What? Oh.

533
00:22:25,420 --> 00:22:27,378
Chunhua, can you sit for a second?

534
00:22:31,730 --> 00:22:34,515
I think I've been guilty
of misleading you somewhat.

535
00:22:35,057 --> 00:22:36,140
How so?

536
00:22:36,976 --> 00:22:38,802
When I said I could win this case.

537
00:22:38,897 --> 00:22:40,671
This, um...

538
00:22:40,771 --> 00:22:43,617
You took this case because you
wanted to have sex with me.

539
00:22:43,749 --> 00:22:44,792
Oh, no.

540
00:22:44,883 --> 00:22:46,548
Actually, much more
old-fashioned than that.

541
00:22:46,659 --> 00:22:49,581
I wanted a dinner.
A movie, a walk in the park.

542
00:22:49,692 --> 00:22:51,884
Maybe at some point, leading to...

543
00:22:52,326 --> 00:22:55,221
Look, I'm gonna go in
there and do my best.

544
00:22:55,335 --> 00:22:56,433
But...

545
00:22:57,954 --> 00:23:01,290
I had no right to give you
or your dad the impression...

546
00:23:07,975 --> 00:23:09,107
Anyway...

547
00:23:11,277 --> 00:23:12,474
Adam?

548
00:23:13,923 --> 00:23:17,337
What do you think of
China's one-child policy?

549
00:23:31,220 --> 00:23:35,716
Case number 3261.
Diana Kremp v. Fung Lao.

550
00:23:35,857 --> 00:23:37,807
Tommy Jefferson appearing for
the plaintiff, Your Honor.

551
00:23:37,932 --> 00:23:38,833
How are you this fine day?

552
00:23:38,945 --> 00:23:40,784
Adam Branch for the defendant.
Oh, great.

553
00:23:40,884 --> 00:23:41,841
Your Honor, I think... Hold on.

554
00:23:41,964 --> 00:23:43,923
Before we start, Mr. Branch,

555
00:23:44,059 --> 00:23:45,998
you will respect the
decorum of this court.

556
00:23:46,132 --> 00:23:47,911
If I hold up my finger,

557
00:23:48,030 --> 00:23:49,351
you stop talking.

558
00:23:49,486 --> 00:23:50,942
Do we understand each other?

559
00:23:51,038 --> 00:23:52,239
Yes, Judge.

560
00:23:52,974 --> 00:23:54,430
Go ahead, Mr. Jefferson.

561
00:23:54,675 --> 00:23:55,941
Thank you.

562
00:23:56,376 --> 00:23:58,515
Nobody loves the practice
of law more than I do.

563
00:23:58,637 --> 00:24:00,027
The more novel the case,
the better.

564
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,814
But I have to be honest.
This one scares me.

565
00:24:02,964 --> 00:24:05,445
The one-child law in China
epitomizes the oppression

566
00:24:05,584 --> 00:24:07,061
practiced on the Chinese citizenry

567
00:24:07,178 --> 00:24:09,137
by the Communist regime.
Imagine a government

568
00:24:09,254 --> 00:24:11,716
dictating whether or not a
family can have children.

569
00:24:11,865 --> 00:24:14,210
I remember when I first heard of it.
I thanked God I live

570
00:24:14,345 --> 00:24:15,548
in the United States of America.

571
00:24:15,685 --> 00:24:18,048
Because that could
never happen here

572
00:24:18,172 --> 00:24:19,201
in the United States of America.

573
00:24:19,344 --> 00:24:21,643
And yet here we are. Here we are.

574
00:24:21,762 --> 00:24:23,947
I'm sorry, small point,
but I see local rules

575
00:24:24,069 --> 00:24:25,899
favor judicial economy.
Does this mean we

576
00:24:26,022 --> 00:24:27,205
should skip over the obvious?

577
00:24:27,347 --> 00:24:28,963
Like, you know, "Here we are,

578
00:24:29,117 --> 00:24:30,716
in the United States of America"?

579
00:24:30,854 --> 00:24:31,480
Good to review...

580
00:24:31,631 --> 00:24:32,977
May I continue, please?

581
00:24:33,137 --> 00:24:34,870
Of course. I apologize.

582
00:24:35,773 --> 00:24:37,932
There are certain
freedoms we hold precious

583
00:24:38,073 --> 00:24:39,654
in this country.
The right to procreate,

584
00:24:39,801 --> 00:24:41,977
to have a baby,
it is the most cherished

585
00:24:42,106 --> 00:24:44,637
of all civil liberties
safeguarded by the Constitution.

586
00:24:44,773 --> 00:24:46,433
I'm sorry, again small point,

587
00:24:46,559 --> 00:24:48,135
but are we talking
about our Constitution?

588
00:24:48,288 --> 00:24:49,307
'Cause there's actually nothing in

589
00:24:49,442 --> 00:24:51,257
our Constitution about the
right to have children.

590
00:24:51,385 --> 00:24:52,895
I'm happy to consider others,
if that helps.

591
00:24:52,993 --> 00:24:54,686
The right is so inferred
by the Supreme Court,

592
00:24:54,828 --> 00:24:56,641
as an extension of
our right to privacy,

593
00:24:56,775 --> 00:24:59,029
a right... Also not mentioned
in the Constitution,

594
00:24:59,152 --> 00:24:59,897
but whatever, go for it.

595
00:25:00,054 --> 00:25:01,241
Counsel? Hmm?

596
00:25:03,377 --> 00:25:04,598
And every lower court

597
00:25:04,746 --> 00:25:07,665
to address the matter has
repeatedly and unanimously held

598
00:25:07,792 --> 00:25:09,916
that the government cannot
deny the right to have children

599
00:25:10,054 --> 00:25:12,170
without violating the
fundamental principles

600
00:25:12,301 --> 00:25:14,813
of liberty and justice.
Here we have a young woman

601
00:25:14,939 --> 00:25:17,592
who, together with her husband,
wants to have a baby.

602
00:25:17,907 --> 00:25:20,867
And these people,
who have immigrated here

603
00:25:21,003 --> 00:25:23,157
from Chinese China, say no.

604
00:25:23,300 --> 00:25:25,796
China, a country which,
until recently, was on the list

605
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:27,254
of top ten human rights violators.

606
00:25:27,380 --> 00:25:29,416
That China. How dare
they try to impose

607
00:25:29,533 --> 00:25:30,654
their Chinese, Communist,

608
00:25:30,779 --> 00:25:32,648
totalitarian, oppressive regime...

609
00:25:32,761 --> 00:25:34,045
All right, Mr. Jefferson.

610
00:25:34,163 --> 00:25:35,730
I kind of get where
you're going here.

611
00:25:36,505 --> 00:25:37,610
Mr. Branch.

612
00:25:37,724 --> 00:25:39,921
What do you say? This is America.

613
00:25:40,219 --> 00:25:40,827
Your Honor...

614
00:25:40,934 --> 00:25:43,004
And I want short sentences.
To the point.

615
00:25:43,130 --> 00:25:44,330
Or I'll sit you down.

616
00:25:44,462 --> 00:25:45,566
Yes, Your Honor.

617
00:25:49,055 --> 00:25:51,596
The Constitution guards
against state action.

618
00:25:51,728 --> 00:25:53,795
It says what the
government can't do.

619
00:25:53,894 --> 00:25:55,822
It's silent on Laundromats.

620
00:25:55,936 --> 00:25:57,092
She entered into a contract

621
00:25:57,205 --> 00:25:59,051
at a private business.
His business.

622
00:25:59,175 --> 00:26:01,386
Nobody's trying to dictate
her family planning.

623
00:26:01,490 --> 00:26:03,123
She's free to work someplace else

624
00:26:03,248 --> 00:26:05,129
and have as many kids as she wants.

625
00:26:05,251 --> 00:26:07,582
But if she chooses to
work at this Laundromat,

626
00:26:07,707 --> 00:26:09,236
these are the terms
which she agreed to.

627
00:26:09,341 --> 00:26:11,535
But there are certain liberties
that even a private company

628
00:26:11,664 --> 00:26:12,940
is not allowed to trample.

629
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:14,466
Unless the trampling

630
00:26:14,598 --> 00:26:16,832
satisfies a compelling
state interest.

631
00:26:16,955 --> 00:26:18,700
And what would be yours?

632
00:26:18,871 --> 00:26:23,075
Humanity. Of all the things
threatening to doom our world...

633
00:26:23,234 --> 00:26:26,379
global warming,
nuclear proliferation, BP,

634
00:26:26,493 --> 00:26:28,318
Tommy... the biggest threat

635
00:26:28,434 --> 00:26:30,307
is overpopulation. Too many people.

636
00:26:30,457 --> 00:26:32,512
We've got eight billion now.
By 2050,

637
00:26:32,650 --> 00:26:34,530
we're projected to
add another billion.

638
00:26:34,647 --> 00:26:36,458
You can drive around
in your little Priuses,

639
00:26:36,588 --> 00:26:38,106
use the curly-cue light bulbs,

640
00:26:38,225 --> 00:26:40,260
recycle all you want. None of it...

641
00:26:40,399 --> 00:26:41,868
none of it... will make a dent.

642
00:26:42,005 --> 00:26:44,749
What we have to do
is curb population.

643
00:26:44,878 --> 00:26:46,956
Say what you want about
Chinese, Communist,

644
00:26:47,050 --> 00:26:49,810
totalitarian, oppressive China.
Did I get them all?

645
00:26:49,876 --> 00:26:51,422
But their one-child policy program

646
00:26:51,565 --> 00:26:54,068
is the most historic,
most meaningful step

647
00:26:54,196 --> 00:26:57,109
taken by any country to improve
the well-being of society.

648
00:26:57,230 --> 00:26:59,084
And we all love to
preach that every person

649
00:26:59,211 --> 00:27:00,896
should do his part, don't we?

650
00:27:01,007 --> 00:27:02,192
Fung Lao is doing his.

651
00:27:02,297 --> 00:27:03,185
And in so doing,

652
00:27:03,303 --> 00:27:05,473
he obliterates one of
the very principles

653
00:27:05,594 --> 00:27:06,506
that defines us as... Oh, please.

654
00:27:06,602 --> 00:27:08,503
We toss out principles
left and right.

655
00:27:08,639 --> 00:27:10,284
We shelve civil
liberties all the time.

656
00:27:10,396 --> 00:27:13,114
We've been doing it for 200 years.
I don't know what

657
00:27:13,234 --> 00:27:14,734
kind of history you're talking about, kid.
The Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798

658
00:27:14,854 --> 00:27:16,974
which outlawed criticism of the president.
But the history I know includes the Bill of Rights.

659
00:27:17,094 --> 00:27:18,520
It includes freedom.
During the Civil War, we censored the press.

660
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,182
- This is not about the Civil War.
Don't talk about... - Honest Abe did that.

661
00:27:20,302 --> 00:27:23,312
- In World War I, Woodrow Wilson
approved the Espionage Act,
- Or Woodrow Wilson.

662
00:27:23,432 --> 00:27:26,624
- This is about a one-child policy that
won't let that woman have a baby.
- which banned criticism of the war.

663
00:27:26,744 --> 00:27:28,276
- In World War II, we locked people up
because of their race!
- And overpopulation is not our fault...

664
00:27:28,396 --> 00:27:30,447
Their race! Not our fault?
Are you on drugs?

665
00:27:30,567 --> 00:27:31,979
We're maybe the worst offenders.

666
00:27:32,099 --> 00:27:34,125
We may make up 5% of the world's population,
Just because a policy is needed in Chinese China,

667
00:27:34,245 --> 00:27:36,848
- but we account for 35% of the consumption.
- doesn't mean there's a place for
it here. God bless America.

668
00:27:36,968 --> 00:27:37,866
Genocide!

669
00:27:39,154 --> 00:27:41,561
Okay. You got me with that one.

670
00:27:41,685 --> 00:27:43,047
Did you say, "Genocide"?

671
00:27:43,225 --> 00:27:44,515
You're damn right.

672
00:27:44,789 --> 00:27:46,252
This one-child policy

673
00:27:46,373 --> 00:27:48,218
is contributing to the
female genocide in China.

674
00:27:48,334 --> 00:27:50,020
Because couples can
only have one child,

675
00:27:50,164 --> 00:27:51,584
and Chinese couples want boys,

676
00:27:51,731 --> 00:27:53,177
girls are not being born.

677
00:27:53,307 --> 00:27:55,719
Okay. He made a valid
point there, Judge.

678
00:27:55,844 --> 00:27:57,148
First one since "Here we are."

679
00:27:57,277 --> 00:27:58,173
Credit where it's due,

680
00:27:58,305 --> 00:28:00,311
but female genocide
wouldn't happen here.

681
00:28:00,439 --> 00:28:02,976
People want girls just as
much as they want boys.

682
00:28:03,087 --> 00:28:04,343
For those who have met Tommy,

683
00:28:04,472 --> 00:28:06,421
I bet they prefer girls.
I could be wrong there.

684
00:28:06,552 --> 00:28:08,303
You little snot!
Don't call me little.

685
00:28:08,425 --> 00:28:09,590
All right.

686
00:28:10,162 --> 00:28:12,335
You both raise a lot
of interesting points,

687
00:28:12,470 --> 00:28:14,869
but I'm afraid this one's a
little above my pay grade.

688
00:28:15,346 --> 00:28:17,091
I'm going to certify this issue...

689
00:28:17,231 --> 00:28:19,164
whether a private company
has the right to impose

690
00:28:19,290 --> 00:28:21,451
a one-child policy
on its employees...

691
00:28:21,682 --> 00:28:24,719
to the Ohio Supreme Court for
immediate Appellate review.

692
00:28:24,858 --> 00:28:28,000
As for now, you two can
finish your business

693
00:28:28,137 --> 00:28:30,747
in the parking lot.
We're adjourned.

694
00:28:30,838 --> 00:28:32,640
Did you say, "Ohio Supreme Court"?

695
00:28:32,770 --> 00:28:33,910
I did.

696
00:28:36,181 --> 00:28:37,618
Awesome!

697
00:28:43,483 --> 00:28:45,989
I will close for all I'm worth,

698
00:28:46,103 --> 00:28:47,528
I give you my word.

699
00:28:47,896 --> 00:28:49,170
I'm not taking prison.

700
00:28:49,272 --> 00:28:52,019
I don't blame you.
I'm not recommending prison.

701
00:28:52,904 --> 00:28:54,501
Then what is it you're telling me?

702
00:28:54,624 --> 00:28:57,647
Well, there are certain
things I can't tell you, Anna.

703
00:28:57,879 --> 00:29:00,486
We talk a lot about
attorney/client privilege

704
00:29:00,607 --> 00:29:04,036
and we make it seem like we're
such faithful servants to...

705
00:29:04,622 --> 00:29:06,975
We're servants to the system.

706
00:29:07,203 --> 00:29:08,827
That's what lawyers are.

707
00:29:09,262 --> 00:29:11,936
For example,
if the client's best chance

708
00:29:12,060 --> 00:29:15,939
of avoiding prison is to
tell a big lie on the stand,

709
00:29:16,354 --> 00:29:18,237
we can't advise that.

710
00:29:18,368 --> 00:29:19,875
Lawyer rules.

711
00:29:20,715 --> 00:29:22,905
If you had a murder
weapon in your bag,

712
00:29:23,010 --> 00:29:24,212
we couldn't tell you to ditch it.

713
00:29:24,332 --> 00:29:25,436
Even though...

714
00:29:26,634 --> 00:29:28,107
Lawyer rules.

715
00:29:28,221 --> 00:29:30,936
Ms. Korn, what in the hell
are you babbling about?

716
00:29:33,443 --> 00:29:35,076
What I can tell you is...

717
00:29:35,176 --> 00:29:38,985
if we lose here, they'll
take you right into custody.

718
00:29:39,074 --> 00:29:40,173
And that'll be it.

719
00:29:40,220 --> 00:29:41,534
You wouldn't have time,

720
00:29:41,627 --> 00:29:45,244
for example, to go visit
your son in California

721
00:29:45,364 --> 00:29:46,683
to say good-bye.

722
00:29:46,922 --> 00:29:50,580
If you cared about that,
the time to go see him

723
00:29:50,707 --> 00:29:52,119
would be right now.

724
00:29:58,275 --> 00:29:59,732
You're telling me to flee.

725
00:29:59,835 --> 00:30:01,702
Oh, I could never tell you that.

726
00:30:02,208 --> 00:30:03,645
Lawyer rules.

727
00:30:06,225 --> 00:30:09,350
Well, I appreciate what
you're not telling me.

728
00:30:09,886 --> 00:30:12,780
But I've lived my whole life here.

729
00:30:12,918 --> 00:30:15,227
Right here in this neighborhood.

730
00:30:18,406 --> 00:30:20,664
This is my home.

731
00:30:26,245 --> 00:30:28,747
I should probably
work on my closing.

732
00:30:30,687 --> 00:30:32,776
See you at the courthouse.

733
00:30:47,258 --> 00:30:49,511
It's a really big deal to go
to the Ohio Supreme Court.

734
00:30:49,631 --> 00:30:51,206
That's where law is made.

735
00:30:51,503 --> 00:30:55,063
New precedents get established.
It's-It's a big, big deal.

736
00:30:55,176 --> 00:30:57,138
You happy with that little
performance in there?

737
00:30:57,250 --> 00:30:58,514
Let me tell you what that was.

738
00:30:58,641 --> 00:31:00,627
First, it was rude.

739
00:31:00,767 --> 00:31:03,104
Second, you just gave me a
bigger stage to play on.

740
00:31:03,223 --> 00:31:04,821
The Ohio Supreme Court.

741
00:31:04,942 --> 00:31:07,108
The bigger the stage,
the better I am.

742
00:31:07,249 --> 00:31:09,167
I came here today to swat
you away like a gnat.

743
00:31:09,333 --> 00:31:10,469
But now I can see
you're not a gnat.

744
00:31:10,588 --> 00:31:12,784
You're more like a... tick.

745
00:31:12,894 --> 00:31:15,297
You like to puff
yourself up like a tick.

746
00:31:15,412 --> 00:31:17,103
You know what happens
to ticks, tick?

747
00:31:17,242 --> 00:31:20,474
Somebody comes along,
squeezes them, and they go pop.

748
00:31:20,594 --> 00:31:22,956
That's what I'm gonna
do to you, tick.

749
00:31:23,093 --> 00:31:24,013
Just a matter of time.

750
00:31:24,150 --> 00:31:28,336
Listen to the clock.
Tick, tick, tick, tick. Pop.

751
00:31:41,814 --> 00:31:42,484
I got to tell you.

752
00:31:42,633 --> 00:31:44,825
It isn't easy going
through life a douchebag.

753
00:31:46,298 --> 00:31:48,816
That's what the
defendant called me.

754
00:31:49,021 --> 00:31:50,960
And I guess I'm actually
a professional douchebag.

755
00:31:51,087 --> 00:31:55,145
My job is to go after some
very nice people sometimes,

756
00:31:55,271 --> 00:31:59,611
sympathetic people
who do bad things.

757
00:31:59,990 --> 00:32:03,027
This nice, sympathetic person?
She did a very bad thing.

758
00:32:03,157 --> 00:32:04,988
She robbed a man at gunpoint.

759
00:32:05,119 --> 00:32:10,179
She did it, so she says,
because she was poor.

760
00:32:10,882 --> 00:32:12,176
Needed to eat.

761
00:32:12,363 --> 00:32:15,072
Problem is, a lot of
people are hungry.

762
00:32:15,814 --> 00:32:20,511
We have 45 million people in
this country living in poverty.

763
00:32:20,667 --> 00:32:22,196
What, we send them all the message,

764
00:32:22,323 --> 00:32:24,603
"Go get a gun.
Go out and do what she did"?

765
00:32:24,709 --> 00:32:26,719
Really? 45 million people?

766
00:32:26,956 --> 00:32:29,623
You want to feel bad for
this woman, please do.

767
00:32:29,763 --> 00:32:30,949
I know I do.

768
00:32:31,896 --> 00:32:34,133
After all, she's poor.

769
00:32:35,470 --> 00:32:36,800
He was poor.

770
00:32:37,010 --> 00:32:39,492
So was he. And him. Him, too.

771
00:32:39,615 --> 00:32:41,061
Objection. All armed robbers.

772
00:32:41,208 --> 00:32:41,869
Objection!

773
00:32:42,017 --> 00:32:43,864
Overruled. Are you kidding?

774
00:32:44,427 --> 00:32:45,547
Ms. Korn?

775
00:32:47,156 --> 00:32:48,311
Want to let her go?

776
00:32:48,836 --> 00:32:51,304
What do we tell those that
got prison for their crimes?

777
00:32:51,442 --> 00:32:52,965
You look too mean?

778
00:32:53,539 --> 00:32:55,246
We judge the act, not the person.

779
00:32:55,363 --> 00:32:57,001
She committed the
same act they did.

780
00:32:57,123 --> 00:32:57,879
And lest you think,

781
00:32:57,997 --> 00:32:59,582
"Hey, she's old.

782
00:32:59,884 --> 00:33:01,474
Let's cut her some slack."

783
00:33:02,365 --> 00:33:04,074
Elderly crime is on the rise.

784
00:33:04,226 --> 00:33:06,156
We've all read about the
80-year-old woman selling crack.

785
00:33:06,284 --> 00:33:09,086
The woman who sold her
grandchild for money.

786
00:33:09,210 --> 00:33:11,343
And she's not the only
adorable person out there

787
00:33:11,482 --> 00:33:12,211
with a deadly weapon.

788
00:33:12,341 --> 00:33:14,034
And if you happen to be a
victim of a violent crime,

789
00:33:14,184 --> 00:33:16,602
I can tell you, it's no consolation

790
00:33:16,743 --> 00:33:18,061
that the perpetrator was old.

791
00:33:18,407 --> 00:33:20,924
I say all this because I know...

792
00:33:24,515 --> 00:33:27,234
A part of you must
want to let her go.

793
00:33:27,348 --> 00:33:28,459
How could you not?

794
00:33:29,808 --> 00:33:33,021
But... she stuck a loaded gun

795
00:33:34,167 --> 00:33:36,676
in a man's face and robbed him.

796
00:33:36,823 --> 00:33:37,592
That isn't cute.

797
00:33:37,739 --> 00:33:40,466
It isn't adorable.
It isn't excusable.

798
00:33:41,103 --> 00:33:44,189
Do I ask you to hate her? No.

799
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:47,342
I only ask

800
00:33:48,159 --> 00:33:51,203
that you abide by your duty

801
00:33:51,337 --> 00:33:53,503
to uphold the law.

802
00:33:55,122 --> 00:33:56,493
That's all.

803
00:34:09,321 --> 00:34:12,067
There is a legal defense
known as necessity.

804
00:34:12,545 --> 00:34:15,142
Basically, it means,
if a defendant commits a crime

805
00:34:15,270 --> 00:34:16,738
to prevent a greater harm,

806
00:34:17,053 --> 00:34:19,578
the test is what's the
lesser of the evils.

807
00:34:19,739 --> 00:34:20,782
I would submit,

808
00:34:20,879 --> 00:34:23,019
Anna Nicholson starving to
death is a greater harm...

809
00:34:23,108 --> 00:34:25,302
Your Honor, necessity is
an affirmative defense.

810
00:34:25,447 --> 00:34:26,857
It must be raised prior to trial.

811
00:34:26,992 --> 00:34:27,604
Here, it was not.

812
00:34:27,701 --> 00:34:29,013
I wasn't around prior to trial.

813
00:34:29,136 --> 00:34:30,877
The defense is denied, Ms. Korn.

814
00:34:31,006 --> 00:34:32,452
You know better than that.

815
00:34:33,300 --> 00:34:34,620
Sorry.

816
00:34:35,646 --> 00:34:36,183
Okay.

817
00:34:36,266 --> 00:34:37,871
For technical reasons,
I'm not allowed

818
00:34:38,018 --> 00:34:39,513
to argue what we all know this was.

819
00:34:39,651 --> 00:34:41,259
Objection! Ms. Korn.

820
00:34:44,337 --> 00:34:45,761
Sorry.

821
00:34:46,867 --> 00:34:49,992
Look, you can certainly
choose to put her away.

822
00:34:50,125 --> 00:34:52,178
It's probably the
reasonable thing to do.

823
00:34:52,314 --> 00:34:54,160
After all, it's not as if

824
00:34:54,284 --> 00:34:58,359
Anna Nicholson should expect
anybody's compassion, right?

825
00:34:58,493 --> 00:35:00,355
As Mr. Peyton said, 45 million

826
00:35:00,491 --> 00:35:02,562
Americans live below
the poverty line.

827
00:35:03,053 --> 00:35:06,097
What he left out is,
we really don't give a crap.

828
00:35:06,219 --> 00:35:07,731
You saw what happened
when we went about

829
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:09,345
passing healthcare.

830
00:35:09,486 --> 00:35:11,167
We had a revolt.

831
00:35:11,290 --> 00:35:13,105
We are free market kind of folks.

832
00:35:13,220 --> 00:35:14,383
We're capitalists.

833
00:35:14,501 --> 00:35:16,950
People should get what's
coming to them in America,

834
00:35:17,102 --> 00:35:17,928
nothing more.

835
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,382
And the poor, the elderly...

836
00:35:20,683 --> 00:35:21,627
well, they seem to get

837
00:35:21,748 --> 00:35:24,160
what's coming to them every time,
don't they?

838
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,024
I thought it was very
clever of Mr. Peyton

839
00:35:27,161 --> 00:35:29,439
to lump my client
into the same category

840
00:35:29,559 --> 00:35:32,451
with all those mean-looking
villains, didn't you?

841
00:35:32,810 --> 00:35:34,360
But there is a difference.

842
00:35:35,426 --> 00:35:36,861
She was starving.

843
00:35:37,766 --> 00:35:40,214
And she's a little old to
go into the labor market.

844
00:35:40,345 --> 00:35:42,299
And she has no prior
criminal record,

845
00:35:42,417 --> 00:35:44,102
which I'm guessing is not the case

846
00:35:44,236 --> 00:35:45,937
with all the leading men featured

847
00:35:46,109 --> 00:35:48,193
in Mr. Peyton's slideshow.

848
00:35:48,303 --> 00:35:50,672
She's been law-abiding
her whole life.

849
00:35:50,812 --> 00:35:53,896
And where did it get her? Starving.

850
00:35:54,021 --> 00:35:55,335
Unable to pay her rent.

851
00:35:55,464 --> 00:35:56,924
And pretty damn pissed off.

852
00:35:57,048 --> 00:35:58,973
With good reason, if you ask me.

853
00:35:59,256 --> 00:36:01,295
We're the richest
nation in the world,

854
00:36:01,415 --> 00:36:03,732
and one in seven of
us lives in poverty.

855
00:36:03,883 --> 00:36:05,248
Tell me how that can happen.

856
00:36:05,382 --> 00:36:08,241
Somehow, somebody needs
to get a wakeup call here.

857
00:36:08,380 --> 00:36:09,500
I'm thinking you can send it,

858
00:36:09,623 --> 00:36:11,694
not by putting Anna in prison.

859
00:36:11,815 --> 00:36:13,531
But rather, if you don't.

860
00:36:13,644 --> 00:36:15,089
It should also be said,

861
00:36:15,209 --> 00:36:17,320
a guilty verdict for
an 87-year-old woman

862
00:36:17,474 --> 00:36:18,390
is a death sentence.

863
00:36:18,525 --> 00:36:19,268
Objection!

864
00:36:19,382 --> 00:36:20,965
Sustained. Ms. Korn?

865
00:36:21,093 --> 00:36:22,736
You know better than that.

866
00:36:23,015 --> 00:36:24,210
Clearly, I don't, Judge.

867
00:36:24,340 --> 00:36:25,913
I'm not allowed to argue necessity,

868
00:36:26,038 --> 00:36:27,938
which this was,
I'm not allowed to argue

869
00:36:28,074 --> 00:36:29,394
reality, which this is.

870
00:36:29,524 --> 00:36:32,589
Ms. Korn, you are one
step away from contempt.

871
00:36:32,746 --> 00:36:34,226
Oh, I'm already at contempt.

872
00:36:34,368 --> 00:36:36,907
We let our poor starve,
we let them get sick.

873
00:36:37,034 --> 00:36:37,995
This isn't Third World.

874
00:36:38,144 --> 00:36:40,727
This is America. We're supposed
to be the country that cares.

875
00:36:40,858 --> 00:36:42,645
We also care about law and order.
We are a nation

876
00:36:42,779 --> 00:36:43,809
built on law and order.

877
00:36:43,939 --> 00:36:45,985
Okay. I see we've reached
the rebuttal portion

878
00:36:46,127 --> 00:36:47,180
of closing arguments.

879
00:36:47,319 --> 00:36:48,763
Mr. Peyton.

880
00:36:55,606 --> 00:36:59,010
Look, I'm new at this
criminal law thing.

881
00:36:59,321 --> 00:37:03,842
I'm told it's primarily about
rehabilitation and retribution.

882
00:37:04,705 --> 00:37:08,835
Do you really feel the need to
rehabilitate Anna Nicholson?

883
00:37:09,264 --> 00:37:10,325
Really?

884
00:37:11,199 --> 00:37:12,778
As for retribution,

885
00:37:13,017 --> 00:37:16,866
she sits here in shame,
having to endure...

886
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:21,647
Trust me.

887
00:37:23,114 --> 00:37:25,137
There's nothing you can
really do to this woman

888
00:37:25,269 --> 00:37:27,420
that the government
hasn't already done.

889
00:37:53,492 --> 00:37:56,011
They certainly didn't take long.

890
00:37:56,178 --> 00:37:58,514
They probably figure
you'll be dead soon.

891
00:37:58,991 --> 00:38:00,199
Maybe so.

892
00:38:00,436 --> 00:38:02,579
Will the defendant please rise?

893
00:38:08,102 --> 00:38:09,201
Madame Forewoman,

894
00:38:09,341 --> 00:38:11,193
has the jury reached
a unanimous verdict?

895
00:38:11,318 --> 00:38:12,359
Yes, Your Honor.

896
00:38:12,623 --> 00:38:13,612
What say you?

897
00:38:16,172 --> 00:38:17,249
We, the jury,

898
00:38:17,370 --> 00:38:20,477
in the matter of The State of Ohio v.
Anna Nicholson,

899
00:38:20,591 --> 00:38:22,630
on the charge of armed robbery,

900
00:38:22,767 --> 00:38:24,208
hereby find the defendant,

901
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,050
Anna Nicholson... not guilty.

902
00:38:27,395 --> 00:38:29,322
You have got to be kidding me!

903
00:38:29,430 --> 00:38:30,600
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury...

904
00:38:30,749 --> 00:38:33,236
That's what I call a fine verdict.

905
00:38:33,374 --> 00:38:35,842
That's what I call a lucky verdict.

906
00:38:36,237 --> 00:38:38,911
If not preposterous.

907
00:38:43,801 --> 00:38:46,113
Sometimes it's a
single-justice review.

908
00:38:46,245 --> 00:38:48,232
Sometimes it's a
three-judge tribunal.

909
00:38:48,743 --> 00:38:49,818
It'll take a while.

910
00:38:49,946 --> 00:38:51,073
The parties have to submit briefs.

911
00:38:51,209 --> 00:38:53,207
It's kind of a big deal.

912
00:38:55,270 --> 00:38:57,571
This is my place here.

913
00:38:59,155 --> 00:39:00,507
Adam?

914
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:04,840
My father and I really
appreciate your efforts, but

915
00:39:05,539 --> 00:39:09,541
I don't feel comfortable,
you doing this for free.

916
00:39:11,973 --> 00:39:15,069
I'm gonna tell you something
I've never told anybody before.

917
00:39:15,883 --> 00:39:18,026
When I was in high school,
I had this fantasy.

918
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:21,085
Playing quarterback for
the varsity football team

919
00:39:21,244 --> 00:39:23,983
with the most beautiful girl
in the world up in the stands,

920
00:39:24,074 --> 00:39:26,787
watching me lead the
team to victory.

921
00:39:27,394 --> 00:39:29,357
I never made the football team.

922
00:39:29,604 --> 00:39:31,431
Truth is, I was too
chicken to even try out.

923
00:39:31,556 --> 00:39:34,370
I was captain of the debate team.

924
00:39:37,254 --> 00:39:39,695
Whether I ever have
dinner with you or not,

925
00:39:40,155 --> 00:39:43,929
the idea of arguing before
the Ohio Supreme Court,

926
00:39:44,602 --> 00:39:46,058
with you watching?

927
00:39:49,523 --> 00:39:51,944
I'd do that for free anytime.

928
00:39:53,523 --> 00:39:54,730
I don't know what to say.

929
00:39:54,861 --> 00:39:56,137
You don't have to say anything.

930
00:39:56,245 --> 00:39:59,288
Just... see you in court.

931
00:40:01,095 --> 00:40:02,919
I'll say thank you.

932
00:40:03,439 --> 00:40:06,084
And... see you in court.

933
00:40:10,375 --> 00:40:11,796
Good night, Adam.

934
00:40:31,727 --> 00:40:32,802
Did you kiss her?

935
00:40:32,937 --> 00:40:34,770
Of course I didn't kiss her.
I just met her.

936
00:40:34,918 --> 00:40:37,194
But did you let it be known
that you'd like to kiss her?

937
00:40:37,325 --> 00:40:39,133
Yes, I sent her an e-mail.

938
00:40:39,258 --> 00:40:41,606
Adam, it's good to go slow,
but she needs to know

939
00:40:41,742 --> 00:40:43,352
it's out of respect,
not disinterest.

940
00:40:43,478 --> 00:40:44,624
Thank you.

941
00:40:45,574 --> 00:40:47,817
Are you okay, Harry?
You should be celebrating.

942
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:49,426
I don't know.
I wonder what the hell

943
00:40:49,576 --> 00:40:51,229
I've gotten myself into.

944
00:40:51,391 --> 00:40:52,982
Last week I'm a patent lawyer,

945
00:40:53,128 --> 00:40:55,879
making almost $600,000 a year.

946
00:40:56,084 --> 00:40:57,959
Now I'm defending armed robbers

947
00:40:58,093 --> 00:40:58,916
for dirty socks...

948
00:40:59,031 --> 00:41:00,898
Did you say $600,000?

949
00:41:01,032 --> 00:41:01,942
Never mind.

950
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:03,338
Harry, in all your years

951
00:41:03,488 --> 00:41:05,255
as a patent attorney,
did you ever have

952
00:41:05,393 --> 00:41:07,760
one single client who
truly needed you?

953
00:41:07,996 --> 00:41:10,025
In a week, you've had two.

954
00:41:13,774 --> 00:41:14,371
Wait.

955
00:41:14,492 --> 00:41:17,143
Don't tell me. You just
rolled somebody in an alley.

956
00:41:17,938 --> 00:41:20,434
I didn't say a proper
thank you before.

957
00:41:21,331 --> 00:41:22,736
To be honest,

958
00:41:22,887 --> 00:41:25,811
I didn't think you
were all that get out.

959
00:41:26,453 --> 00:41:29,490
But you were good enough, I guess.

960
00:41:30,649 --> 00:41:31,983
Thanks.

961
00:41:32,166 --> 00:41:35,918
Can I offer you a beer?
Glass of wine? Your sock?

962
00:41:36,622 --> 00:41:40,433
I also came back 'cause I
wanted to tell you something.

963
00:41:41,508 --> 00:41:43,786
And this here I hope you get.

964
00:41:46,335 --> 00:41:49,185
Welcome to the neighborhood.

965
00:42:05,466 --> 00:42:06,569
Okay, is it just me,

966
00:42:06,681 --> 00:42:08,450
or did that feel really good?

967
00:42:11,197 --> 00:42:13,683
I think we're staying
around for a while.

968
00:42:19,881 --> 00:42:21,876
Maybe.

969
