I've hired another associate.

Hello,alan.
7
00:00:10,070 --> 00:00:10,840
Still looking well.
8
00:00:10,850 --> 00:00:12,000
We can't do this.
9
00:00:12,010 --> 00:00:12,990
Never.
10
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:17,120
You and I should not be
doing a case together.

What are you doing in my law firm?
12
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:20,730
It's not your firm,denny.
I'm a senior partner.

we had a deal,sack.

I'd put money on it.

I'd shoot him.

Hello.
22
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,020
My name is abigail holt.

00:00:46,030 --> 00:00:47,810
My friends and family call me abby.
24
00:00:47,820 --> 00:00:49,210
That's a lovely name.

00:00:49,220 --> 00:00:50,310
Thank you.
26
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:51,560
How did you get here?
27
00:00:51,570 --> 00:00:54,710
I walked in. I need to hire a lawyer.
28
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,520
I'd like to sue my high school.
29
00:00:59,310 --> 00:01:02,090
And what would you like to
sue your high school for?
30
00:01:02,420 --> 00:01:04,210
They teach abstinence only.
31
00:01:04,220 --> 00:01:08,230
It's their fault,at least
partly,that I got caught so,uh?
32
00:01:09,010 --> 00:01:10,450
unprepared.
33
00:01:10,730 --> 00:01:12,360
Unprepared?
34
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:14,820
How old are you?
35
00:01:14,830 --> 00:01:16,350
I'm 15.
36
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,350
And by unprepared I'm assuming you mean?
37
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,080
you had unprotected sex.
38
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,360
Yes.
39
00:01:26,370 --> 00:01:28,080
Are you pregnant?
40
00:01:28,380 --> 00:01:31,710
I ask only because if you
do plan to take care of it,
41
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,420
you should know abortion is
only legal in this country
42
00:01:34,430 --> 00:01:37,630
until our current supreme court
reaches its third trimester.
43
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,150
I didn't get pregnant,mr. Shore.
44
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:41,800
I see.
45
00:01:41,810 --> 00:01:46,080
Well,in a lawsuit,one
must show damages,abby.
46
00:01:46,700 --> 00:01:48,390
Do you have damages?
47
00:01:50,730 --> 00:01:53,380
I'm H. I. V. Positive.
48
00:01:58,610 --> 00:02:01,430
First up,the
court- -
49
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,290
or zeal to suck the private sector
50
00:02:04,300 --> 00:02:08,240
into community service-has assigned us
yet another high-profile criminal case.
51
00:02:08,250 --> 00:02:09,130
Do I have any takers?
52
00:02:09,140 --> 00:02:11,080
Denny crane,giver.
53
00:02:11,090 --> 00:02:14,390
Attaboy,denny. The client
is charged with cockfighting.
54
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,940
His rooster evidentltook the
life of another. Moving on.
55
00:02:16,950 --> 00:02:18,720
No can do.
56
00:02:19,130 --> 00:02:20,710
Why don't you do it?
57
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:22,470
Me?
58
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:23,660
Carl.
59
00:02:23,670 --> 00:02:26,270
My problem is?
60
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,220
- I like chickens.
- Do you,now?
61
00:02:28,230 --> 00:02:32,190
I find them sweet. And the idea of putting
a poultry killer back on the street?
62
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:33,470
- assuming you'd win.
- But I would.
63
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:34,680
- Your defense?
- No idea.
64
00:02:34,690 --> 00:02:36,560
- You think I'm stupid?
- A much longer discussion.
65
00:02:36,570 --> 00:02:39,480
You want me to take this case
to ruin my perfect record.
66
00:02:39,490 --> 00:02:40,840
You seek to blemish me.
67
00:02:40,850 --> 00:02:42,750
Are you saying you can't win it,denny?
68
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,090
- I know you can'T.
- All right.
69
00:02:44,100 --> 00:02:46,700
You're probably right.
I'm not much good?
70
00:02:47,390 --> 00:02:48,680
unless there's money on it.
71
00:02:48,690 --> 00:02:51,090
- Oh,no,no.
- How much?
72
00:02:51,100 --> 00:02:51,990
$50,000.
73
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,980
- Why not make it $100,000?
- We could make it $200,000.
74
00:02:53,990 --> 00:02:54,780
$200,000 it is.
75
00:02:54,790 --> 00:02:56,680
Hey! First of all,
76
00:02:56,690 --> 00:02:59,740
wagering on the outcome of a
case is grounds for disbarment.
77
00:02:59,750 --> 00:03:02,180
Both of you should be taken
behind the barn and spanked.
78
00:03:02,190 --> 00:03:03,050
Me first.
79
00:03:03,060 --> 00:03:05,980
And what kind of message does
this send our younger associates,
80
00:03:05,990 --> 00:03:07,970
betting $200,000
on the o--

our associates that much money.

$200,000 it is.
83
00:03:12,870 --> 00:03:14,440
It's a bet.

I brought you in for some maturity.
89
00:03:52,620 --> 00:03:53,580
Big mistake.
90
00:03:53,590 --> 00:03:57,300
Well,if so,I'll correct it. The last
thing I need around here is another child.
91
00:03:57,310 --> 00:03:58,860
Are you pregnant,shirley?

Shut up,alan.

Well,now I'm aroused.

Me,too.
95
00:04:02,730 --> 00:04:04,280
You need to go meet with your client.
96
00:04:04,290 --> 00:04:06,480
What about me? I have ears.
97
00:04:06,490 --> 00:04:08,560
Cute ones,actually.
98
00:04:08,570 --> 00:04:10,990
All the better to nibble on,I suppose.
99
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,280
Lorraine?
100
00:04:12,290 --> 00:04:15,690
don't think for a second
that my attraction to you
101
00:04:15,700 --> 00:04:19,160
or my innate lack of professionalism
means I can't keep my hands off you.
102
00:04:19,170 --> 00:04:21,150
Quite the contrary.
103
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:26,630
I think I've tapped
into a deep reservoir of?
104
00:04:27,700 --> 00:04:32,440
control and discipline
that allows for really?
105
00:04:33,450 --> 00:04:35,570
any proximity.
106
00:04:36,580 --> 00:04:38,120
See?
107
00:04:38,130 --> 00:04:39,540
Nothing.
108
00:04:39,550 --> 00:04:41,420
Nothing?
109
00:04:48,830 --> 00:04:50,340
Dear.
110
00:04:53,830 --> 00:04:55,380
I beg your pardon.
111
00:04:55,390 --> 00:04:56,820
Yes.
112
00:04:56,830 --> 00:04:59,510
Do you know where I
might find katie lloyd?
113
00:05:12,250 --> 00:05:15,160
is he speaking english? That
- that's not english,is it?
114
00:05:15,570 --> 00:05:17,870
My guess would be? spanish.
115
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,280
That's great. You put your
chicken killer on the stand,
116
00:05:20,290 --> 00:05:22,330
let him explaiwhat happened
in his foreign language.
117
00:05:22,340 --> 00:05:23,690
The jury's gonna love that.

Mr. Obisbo. mr. Obisbo! Por-
119
00:05:30,770 --> 00:05:33,720
do you speak any english?
120
00:05:33,730 --> 00:05:35,570
Si,si.
121
00:05:42,700 --> 00:05:44,400
maybe he knows arab.
122
00:05:44,410 --> 00:05:47,370
Get him to speak little
arab,carl. That'll work.
123
00:06:02,770 --> 00:06:04,780
Excuse me. ms. Lloyd?
124
00:06:04,790 --> 00:06:06,940
- Yes.
- I'm deena rice.
125
00:06:06,950 --> 00:06:07,790
Hello.
126
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,240
This is jerry espenson.
127
00:06:09,250 --> 00:06:10,360
- Hello.
- Hello.
128
00:06:10,370 --> 00:06:12,940
Yes,I- - I've seen
you both on television.
129
00:06:12,950 --> 00:06:14,980
I followed the joseph washington trial.
130
00:06:14,990 --> 00:06:17,640
My husband used to be
involved in the case.
131
00:06:17,650 --> 00:06:19,550
Oh,really? What?
132
00:06:20,380 --> 00:06:22,200
rice? Matthew rice?
133
00:06:22,210 --> 00:06:25,760
My husband represented joseph washington
up until he threw himself in front of a bus.
134
00:06:25,770 --> 00:06:27,560
I'm so sorry,mrs. Rice.
135
00:06:27,570 --> 00:06:29,180
Thank you.
136
00:06:29,190 --> 00:06:32,130
You two must be extraordinary attorneys.
137
00:06:32,140 --> 00:06:36,670
He spoke often of joseph washington. He made
it sound like a rather impossible defense.
138
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,340
I have a rather?
improbable case of my own.
139
00:06:41,350 --> 00:06:43,730
I was wondering whether you
might consider representing me.
140
00:06:43,740 --> 00:06:45,210
What kind of a case is it?
141
00:06:45,220 --> 00:06:49,290
I'd like to sue the psychologist at
treated my husband prior to his suicide.
142
00:06:51,860 --> 00:06:53,760
Logo of course you're not
thinking of bringing such a case.
143
00:06:53,770 --> 00:06:55,410
She's a minor. I give you
no authority to go ahead w- -
144
00:06:55,420 --> 00:06:56,900
- dad!
- Listen to me,young lady.
145
00:06:56,910 --> 00:06:59,260
You have no legitimate cause of action.
146
00:06:59,270 --> 00:07:02,880
Not to mention the fact that this kind
of thing would get media attention.
147
00:07:02,890 --> 00:07:05,910
Now do you really want to be
known as "the H. I. V. Girl"?
148
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,620
I want to be known as a person
who will stand up for my rights.
149
00:07:08,630 --> 00:07:09,620
Your rights?
150
00:07:09,630 --> 00:07:13,190
Honey,you're the one who decided to
have sex. It's your responsibility.
151
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:14,940
Which I take,but the
school should also- -
152
00:07:14,950 --> 00:07:16,890
let's just go home,honey.
We can talk about it- -
153
00:07:16,900 --> 00:07:18,610
I can get emancipated.
154
00:07:18,620 --> 00:07:20,020
And I can bring this case without you.
155
00:07:20,030 --> 00:07:21,110
No,you cannot.
156
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,020
Well,actually,she can.
157
00:07:23,650 --> 00:07:25,400
What kind of lawyer are you?
158
00:07:25,410 --> 00:07:27,640
The troubled y fun kind.
159
00:07:27,650 --> 00:07:29,510
Abby,your father's right about this.
160
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,450
Plus,if you bring such a
lawsuit,a great deal of the focus
161
00:07:32,460 --> 00:07:35,420
and media attention will be on
the fact that you have H. I. V.
162
00:07:35,430 --> 00:07:39,120
Along with millions of other people.
I don't consider it much of a stigma.
163
00:07:40,830 --> 00:07:43,300
I know I
- I probably won't win.
164
00:07:43,310 --> 00:07:45,870
But somebody has gotta
make some noise about this.
165
00:07:46,930 --> 00:07:48,000
Mr. And
mrs. Holt- -
166
00:07:48,010 --> 00:07:48,890
this is ridiculous.
167
00:07:48,900 --> 00:07:53,920
It's possible in years to come your
daughter would regret bringing this lawsuit.
168
00:07:54,890 --> 00:07:58,620
My sense is,knowing her
for all of,uh,20 minutes,
169
00:07:58,630 --> 00:08:01,660
she'd regret not bringing
it considerably more.
170
00:08:08,140 --> 00:08:12,020
If you sabotage this case
in any way,the bet is off.
171
00:08:12,030 --> 00:08:13,690
- I would neveR.
- Denny.
172
00:08:13,700 --> 00:08:17,160
I'm a neutral observer,like
switzerland. Only with a bigger penis.
173
00:08:17,170 --> 00:08:21,500
I'm just gonna sit back,relax and
enjoy. Promise. Mind if I smoke?
174
00:08:22,930 --> 00:08:25,660
Oh,the,uh,probation report ce back.
175
00:08:25,670 --> 00:08:28,670
Seems your client has a record.
176
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,920
He stole a car last year. Awful.
177
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,530
He began seeing dr. Farrell
right after his father died.
178
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,220
Matthew and his dad
were extremely close.
179
00:08:39,230 --> 00:08:42,700
And he found himself completely
devastated by his death.
180
00:08:42,710 --> 00:08:44,080
How long was he treated?
181
00:08:44,090 --> 00:08:47,070
Six months,with some success at first.
182
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,370
But then he regressed
into a profound despair.
183
00:08:50,380 --> 00:08:53,520
So much so that I'm convinced
the therapy did damage.
184
00:08:53,530 --> 00:08:56,570
Did dr. Farrell prcribe any
medication for your husband?
185
00:08:56,580 --> 00:08:59,980
No,it was all
psychotherapy,just talking.
186
00:08:59,990 --> 00:09:03,080
But matthew suddenly began
to have "recovered memories,"
187
00:09:03,090 --> 00:09:06,560
they call it
- childhood abuse,sexual abuse.
188
00:09:07,180 --> 00:09:08,330
He couldn't handle it.
189
00:09:08,340 --> 00:09:13,100
Well,one might argue that the memories
caused the depression,not the treatment.
190
00:09:13,110 --> 00:09:16,280
But he wouldn't have had the
memories ife hadn't had the treatment.
191
00:09:16,290 --> 00:09:19,270
We all assume that the unearthing
of feelings is a good thing.
192
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,360
But many times,it's not.
193
00:09:21,370 --> 00:09:24,030
I mean,matthew's repressed
memories weren't hurting him.
194
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,730
He was happy. He was successful.
195
00:09:27,750 --> 00:09:30,310
Once this doctor dug them out?
196
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,780
they killed him.
197
00:09:37,550 --> 00:09:39,380
Denny,ready?
198
00:09:39,810 --> 00:09:41,250
You can't dress him up like that.
199
00:09:41,260 --> 00:09:42,360
Why not?
200
00:09:42,370 --> 00:09:44,080
Because that's not how he looks.
201
00:09:44,090 --> 00:09:47,150
You're committing fraud on the
court,making them think that's how he looks.
202
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:48,900
denny,we dress up clients all the time.
203
00:09:48,910 --> 00:09:49,880
- It's not fair.
- Get in.
204
00:09:49,890 --> 00:09:51,250
You're cheating.
205
00:09:53,740 --> 00:09:58,490
Alan,I'm assigning lorraine to second chair
you on your case against the school board.
206
00:09:58,500 --> 00:10:00,890
What? Why?
207
00:10:00,900 --> 00:10:03,440
This is an issue which touches
on significant women's rights.
208
00:10:03,450 --> 00:10:05,400
I think it makes sense
to have a woman on board.
209
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,040
Her?
210
00:10:08,050 --> 00:10:09,360
I
- is there a problem?
211
00:10:09,370 --> 00:10:12,670
No,no,no,no. No,not at all.
212
00:10:12,680 --> 00:10:16,140
This is a threshold case,alan. It's
likely to get a little media play.
213
00:10:16,150 --> 00:10:18,020
I- - I'd just like to
have a woman'face on it.
214
00:10:18,390 --> 00:10:19,430
I couldn't agree more.
215
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,960
So? no problem then?
216
00:10:21,970 --> 00:10:23,490
Absolutely not.
217
00:10:23,500 --> 00:10:24,650
Good.
218
00:10:30,700 --> 00:10:32,340
after you.
219
00:10:34,490 --> 00:10:36,270
I'll take the stairs.
220
00:10:47,130 --> 00:10:51,010
When first arrived on the scene,there was
just blood all over. It was disgusting.
221
00:10:51,090 --> 00:10:53,010
What was the source
of the blood,officer?
222
00:10:53,020 --> 00:10:58,180
A- a dead chicken,viciously pecked
to death by a killecock- - his.
223
00:10:58,810 --> 00:11:00,290
What happened next,officer?
224
00:11:00,300 --> 00:11:04,200
We ascertained tha the cockfighting
rooster belonged to the defendant.
225
00:11:04,210 --> 00:11:09,010
I placed him under arrest,advised him of
his rights in both english and spanish,
226
00:11:09,020 --> 00:11:13,890
rescued the surviving chicken from his
control and took the suspect into custody.
227
00:11:14,420 --> 00:11:18,880
Officer,you referred to the
demise of the losing chicken- -
228
00:11:18,890 --> 00:11:21,360
I believe the word
you used was "vicious.
229
00:11:21,370 --> 00:11:23,850
" That's correct. Vicious-
- blood everywhere.
230
00:11:24,140 --> 00:11:27,350
Would you consider it more or less
vicious than say scalding it with hot water
231
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,530
so its feathers will fall out
and then slitting its throat?
232
00:11:29,540 --> 00:11:30,320
Objection.
233
00:11:30,330 --> 00:11:34,020
This won't be a referendum
on slaughterhouses,counsel.
234
00:11:34,790 --> 00:11:40,100
Officer,did you have an opportunity to
observe the demeanor of my client's rooster?
235
00:11:40,470 --> 00:11:41,480
Its demeanor?
236
00:11:41,490 --> 00:11:43,210
YeS. Did he seem happy?
237
00:11:43,220 --> 00:11:44,070
Counsel?
238
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:45,070
I ask this,your honor,
239
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:49,120
because many experts in animal
behavior have opined that cockfighting
240
00:11:49,130 --> 00:11:51,600
can actually be quite gratifying
to the feathered combatants- -
241
00:11:51,610 --> 00:11:55,660
this witness is no expert in animal
behavior. She's a police officer.
242
00:11:56,470 --> 00:12:01,350
Officer,you testified that you rescued
my client's rooster from his control.
243
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:02,840
Yes.
244
00:12:02,850 --> 00:12:04,050
What did you do with him?
245
00:12:04,060 --> 00:12:06,180
It was put to sleep.
246
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,570
So when you say "rescued," you
use the term rather loosely.
247
00:12:18,590 --> 00:12:20,790
one night,I was over at jason's house.
248
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,910
He's my boyfriend.
249
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,050
Uh,his parents were away,and?
250
00:12:26,560 --> 00:12:28,850
things got out of control,I guess.
251
00:12:28,860 --> 00:12:30,540
You and jason made love.
252
00:12:30,550 --> 00:12:31,830
Yes.
253
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,680
How old are you,abby?
254
00:12:33,690 --> 00:12:34,800
I'm 15.
255
00:12:34,810 --> 00:12:35,880
Outrageous!
256
00:12:35,890 --> 00:12:39,800
I think his honor means 15 is
a little young to be having sex.
257
00:12:39,810 --> 00:12:40,910
He's yet to have it.
258
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:42,170
That's not true.
259
00:12:42,180 --> 00:12:43,750
Just continue.
260
00:12:45,660 --> 00:12:48,880
things,uh,like i said,they
- they got out of control after that.
261
00:12:48,890 --> 00:12:51,490
And neither of you took precautions?
262
00:12:51,500 --> 00:12:54,260
No. We didn't have condoms and?
263
00:12:55,680 --> 00:12:57,440
it was really stupid.
264
00:12:57,450 --> 00:13:01,100
It turns out he was
H. I. V. Positive. And?
265
00:13:01,830 --> 00:13:03,410
now I am.
266
00:13:03,420 --> 00:13:06,890
Did either of you ever think
about carrying a condom,
267
00:13:06,900 --> 00:13:09,070
just in case things ever?
268
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:10,670
got out of control?
269
00:13:10,680 --> 00:13:13,160
N
- no. We were taught abstinence.
270
00:13:13,170 --> 00:13:16,330
They basically drilled it into
us that condoms don't work.
271
00:13:16,340 --> 00:13:19,850
What did your school teach you
about other forms of birth control?
272
00:13:19,860 --> 00:13:22,880
We were taught
abstinence,pure and simple.
273
00:13:22,890 --> 00:13:24,100
No alternatives.
274
00:13:24,110 --> 00:13:28,750
Young lady,am I to understand that it's
the school's fault you have H. I. V. ?
275
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,200
It's partially mine,your honor.
276
00:13:31,210 --> 00:13:35,940
But when a school preaches to its
students that condoms are ineffective,
277
00:13:35,950 --> 00:13:39,270
you make it less likely that the
students will actually carry them.
278
00:13:39,860 --> 00:13:41,850
I
- I don't think I'm out line
279
00:13:41,860 --> 00:13:45,750
to suggest that the school should accept a
- a trickle of blame here.
280
00:13:51,050 --> 00:13:52,370
This isn't exactly on point,
281
00:13:52,380 --> 00:13:56,170
but there's evidence psychotherapy
for identity disorders can be harmful.
282
00:13:56,180 --> 00:13:59,670
Some "hidden identities," as they're
called,have been brought out through hypnosis.
283
00:13:59,680 --> 00:14:02,220
These alter egos cause
injurious behavior.
284
00:14:02,230 --> 00:14:04,910
I've got a study that says
that four out of ten people
285
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,520
who enter grief therapy after losing a
loved one are worse off after treatment.
286
00:14:08,530 --> 00:14:09,920
Four in ten?
287
00:14:09,930 --> 00:14:12,370
I think that might
occasion a duty to warn.
288
00:14:12,860 --> 00:14:14,690
What do we know about this doctor?
289
00:14:15,570 --> 00:14:17,200
Impeccable credentials.
290
00:14:17,210 --> 00:14:19,330
I suspect he'd like it to stay that way.
291
00:14:19,660 --> 00:14:23,400
My suggestion is we draft
a complaint,don't file it,
292
00:14:23,410 --> 00:14:26,400
set up a meeting with the doctor
and effect a quiet settlement.
293
00:14:26,410 --> 00:14:28,220
- Brilliant.
- Brilliant!
294
00:14:29,550 --> 00:14:31,950
I'm sorry. Sometimes I?
295
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:33,900
I understand.
296
00:14:35,700 --> 00:14:38,350
I like practicing law with you,katie.
297
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:39,960
Thank you,jerry.
298
00:14:39,970 --> 00:14:41,580
That's very sweet of you to say.
299
00:14:41,590 --> 00:14:43,680
You're a very sweet man.
300
00:14:46,820 --> 00:14:48,080
he was good
- sack?
301
00:14:48,090 --> 00:14:49,780
It doesn't matter.
302
00:14:49,790 --> 00:14:51,050
He can't win.
303
00:14:51,060 --> 00:14:53,020
His client broke the
law. The law is the law.
304
00:14:53,030 --> 00:14:54,750
The man's guilty.
305
00:14:56,810 --> 00:14:59,010
So,uh?
306
00:14:59,020 --> 00:15:01,230
how's working with lorraine?
307
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,600
Well,for the most part,I'm fine.
308
00:15:03,610 --> 00:15:06,930
I mean,she's just another
lawyer. She carries a briefcase.
309
00:15:06,940 --> 00:15:09,150
She has?
310
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:10,800
a nec. .
311
00:15:10,810 --> 00:15:13,060
long,tapered legs.
312
00:15:13,070 --> 00:15:14,940
Chiclets.
313
00:15:15,370 --> 00:15:16,390
I beg your pardon.
314
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,180
An old trick my mother taught me.
315
00:15:18,190 --> 00:15:21,800
Chewing chiclets tempers sexual arousal.
316
00:15:21,810 --> 00:15:22,460
The gum?
317
00:15:22,470 --> 00:15:25,010
I chewed it all the way through law school.
It's the only thing that got me through.
318
00:15:25,020 --> 00:15:26,900
don't be ridiculous.
319
00:15:26,910 --> 00:15:27,940
Okay. Well?
320
00:15:27,950 --> 00:15:29,930
fine.
321
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:32,180
I don't even need them.
322
00:15:32,190 --> 00:15:33,950
- She's just another lawyer.
- That's right.
323
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,190
chiclets.
324
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:41,670
Chiclets.
325
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,100
The more she gets to
you,the harder you chew.
326
00:16:06,860 --> 00:16:09,730
look,I was dead set against the
abstinence program myself at first.
327
00:16:09,740 --> 00:16:13,020
As a high school principal for 20
years,I thought it was ludicrous.
328
00:16:13,030 --> 00:16:14,290
But you employed it.
329
00:16:14,300 --> 00:16:16,340
If we didn't,we'd lose federal funding.
330
00:16:16,350 --> 00:16:18,230
Without that,we can't teach anything.
331
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,700
So this was all about the money?
332
00:16:20,710 --> 00:16:23,240
Not just. I looked at the numbers.
333
00:16:23,250 --> 00:16:27,400
Teen pregnancy rates have dropped since
the abstinence program has been in effect- -
334
00:16:27,410 --> 00:16:29,680
in some states,almost by half.
335
00:16:29,690 --> 00:16:31,800
I had to pay attention to that.
336
00:16:32,130 --> 00:16:34,910
The studies I read attribute
the decline of teen pregnancies
337
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,760
to the increased use of contraception.
338
00:16:36,770 --> 00:16:41,590
Yes,but I can't be sure that the abstinence
only program hasn't been effective as well.
339
00:16:41,930 --> 00:16:43,290
The numbers don't lie.
340
00:16:43,300 --> 00:16:44,440
Which numbers?
341
00:16:44,450 --> 00:16:46,670
Sexually transmitted disease
rates amongst teenagers
342
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,760
who pledge abstinence are the same
as for the teenagers who don'T.
343
00:16:49,770 --> 00:16:51,980
Because many don't le up to the pledge.
344
00:16:51,990 --> 00:16:55,940
Statistics also show that abstinence
pledgers are less likely to see a doctor
345
00:16:55,950 --> 00:16:58,630
if they do get an S.T.D. ,Less
likely to think they've got it.
346
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,930
Turns out the pledgers are
more likely to spread S.T.D.S,
347
00:17:01,940 --> 00:17:05,330
which,funny thing,is exactly
what happened to my client here.
348
00:17:05,340 --> 00:17:09,380
Bottom line- - teens that abstain
from sex don't get S. T. D.S
349
00:17:09,390 --> 00:17:10,690
here's a
bottom line- -
350
00:17:10,700 --> 00:17:15,910
teens who aren't taught sex education,including
contraception, are more likely to die.
351
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,400
Hey,you don't like it,take
it up with your congressman.
352
00:17:18,410 --> 00:17:20,150
I'm just a high school principal.
353
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,370
You're her principal,mr. Mckay.
354
00:17:22,380 --> 00:17:24,940
Abby didn't go to congress.
She went to school- - yours- -
355
00:17:24,950 --> 00:17:28,020
where she had an expectation
of being taught and cared for.
356
00:17:28,030 --> 00:17:32,580
Might you have at least warned her that her
welfare would come second to federal funding?
357
00:17:43,070 --> 00:17:45,030
ms. Rhodes,dr. Farrell,my
name's katie lloyd.
358
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,350
This is my colleague jerry
espenson and our client deena rice.
359
00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:51,000
Thank you so much for agreeing
to meet at such short notice.
360
00:17:51,010 --> 00:17:52,650
Well,you made it sound raer urgent.
361
00:17:52,660 --> 00:17:57,930
Yes,well,dr. Farrell treated my client's husband
matthew rice prior to his death by suicide.
362
00:17:57,940 --> 00:18:02,260
Without sounding obnoxiously adversarial,we
believe that dr. Farrell's treatment of mr. Rice.
363
00:18:02,270 --> 00:18:04,200
May have played a role in that tragedy.
364
00:18:04,790 --> 00:18:05,890
What?
365
00:18:05,900 --> 00:18:08,750
We can't be sure,of course,without
exploring the nature of that treatment.
366
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,200
And,well,given my client's
desire to avoid litigation,
367
00:18:12,210 --> 00:18:14,680
which perhaps might coincide
with dr. Farrell's wishes as well,
368
00:18:14,690 --> 00:18:17,640
we thought maybe we could work
this out quickly and quietly.
369
00:18:19,270 --> 00:18:22,560
Look,first of all,I don't
like the extortive overtones
370
00:18:22,570 --> 00:18:24,600
that occasioned this
meeting even to take place.
371
00:18:24,610 --> 00:18:26,920
Second,your inexperience aside,ms.Lloyd,
372
00:18:26,930 --> 00:18:29,600
you should know better than to
threaten either me or my client.
373
00:18:29,610 --> 00:18:32,980
This doctor is one
of the most respected-
374
00:18:32,990 --> 00:18:34,660
and admired member of his profession.
375
00:18:34,670 --> 00:18:36,100
Well,admittedly the doctor
may have done nothing wrong.
376
00:18:36,110 --> 00:18:38,160
But we can't know unless
we know what was done.
377
00:18:38,170 --> 00:18:41,030
So why don't you ask instead of
waving civil complaints in my face?
378
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,320
Well,assuming he'd rightly assert doctor
- patient privilege
379
00:18:43,330 --> 00:18:46,020
,we have no means of discovery
without a proper lawsuit,
380
00:18:46,030 --> 00:18:48,420
which,once again,we felt both
parties would want to avoid.
381
00:18:48,430 --> 00:18:51,980
I can give you several studies which
show psychotherapy may be harmful,
382
00:18:51,990 --> 00:18:54,960
especially when it comes to grief
therapy for people losing loved ones.
383
00:18:54,970 --> 00:18:59,790
If you'd look at the data,you'll see talk
therapy can,in many cases, prolong suffering.
384
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,050
I'm aware of those studies.
385
00:19:02,060 --> 00:19:03,420
Which is certainly your right.
386
00:19:03,430 --> 00:19:06,000
But it would be the
patient's right to be warned.
387
00:19:06,010 --> 00:19:08,180
I believe you call it informed consent.
388
00:19:08,190 --> 00:19:12,950
Did you tell mr. Rice that psychotherapy
could be dangerous to his mental health?
389
00:19:14,030 --> 00:19:15,750
We're done. Bye
- bye.
390
00:19:23,990 --> 00:19:25,070
They'll be back.
391
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:26,900
They will? How can you tell?
392
00:19:26,910 --> 00:19:28,920
They don't want to risk a trial here.
393
00:19:30,850 --> 00:19:32,420
They'll be back.
394
00:19:36,220 --> 00:19:38,710
Your honor,mr.Obisbo
understands english,
395
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:44,090
but since he can't speak it,I would like, with
the court's permission,to use an interpreter.
396
00:19:44,100 --> 00:19:45,740
I have brought one with me.
397
00:19:45,750 --> 00:19:47,000
Fine.
398
00:19:47,010 --> 00:19:48,600
Thank you.
399
00:19:48,610 --> 00:19:50,470
Sister?
400
00:19:57,850 --> 00:19:59,570
Buenos dias,hermana.
401
00:19:59,580 --> 00:20:04,220
Now,miguel,would you first tell the jury
what interests you about cockfighting?
402
00:20:06,070 --> 00:20:08,240
it's part of our mexican culture.
403
00:20:08,250 --> 00:20:12,670
As little children,we're raised to
revere the noble cockfighting rooster.
404
00:20:13,100 --> 00:20:17,790
One of the reasons I came to america-
- the greatest country in the world- -
405
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:19,840
was because of its tolerance,
406
00:20:19,850 --> 00:20:22,870
its willingness to embrace
cultures of other lands.
407
00:20:23,540 --> 00:20:25,190
God bless america.
408
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:30,910
Okay,sir,buto many americans,it seems
cruel to treat chickens this way.
409
00:20:33,820 --> 00:20:35,900
the fighters love the competition.
410
00:20:35,910 --> 00:20:39,530
Mexicans,like
americans,honor the warriors,
411
00:20:39,540 --> 00:20:41,690
like the troops fighting over in iraq.
412
00:20:42,670 --> 00:20:44,280
God bless the troops.
413
00:20:44,290 --> 00:20:48,730
oka um,w would you tell us
about your rooster in particular?
414
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,310
his name was ronald.
415
00:20:53,710 --> 00:20:56,500
I named him after ronald reagan,my hero.
416
00:20:56,870 --> 00:21:00,280
Ronald was like family.
And they killed him.
417
00:21:01,590 --> 00:21:03,890
The police gave him a lethal injection.
418
00:21:05,020 --> 00:21:06,790
they murdered ronald reagan.
419
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,130
Ok,so you say he was
like family,and yet,
420
00:21:09,140 --> 00:21:11,740
you made him
fight,possibly to the death?
421
00:21:11,750 --> 00:21:13,030
No,no,no,no,no,no.
422
00:21:15,230 --> 00:21:16,390
no,no,no,no,no.
423
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,020
I don't believe he would
ever have died fighting.
424
00:21:19,030 --> 00:21:21,270
He was a champion cock.
425
00:21:21,890 --> 00:21:24,430
It would bring me such joy to hold him,
426
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:29,220
to hold that beautiful warrior
cock in my own two hands.
427
00:21:39,490 --> 00:21:41,140
God forgive me.
428
00:21:41,150 --> 00:21:43,930
The old interpreting nun
trick. He got it from me.
429
00:21:43,940 --> 00:21:46,830
Denny,$200,000 is a lot of money.
430
00:21:47,830 --> 00:21:48,770
Okay.
431
00:21:48,780 --> 00:21:50,060
Alan?
432
00:21:50,070 --> 00:21:52,760
I was wondering if we could
have a word in private.
433
00:21:55,070 --> 00:21:56,690
It's quite urgent.
434
00:21:56,700 --> 00:21:58,150
Oh,balls.
435
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,430
Why does everybody want to
excuse me from the conversation?
436
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,120
It's not like I'll remember
it. Mad cow for god sakes.
437
00:22:12,590 --> 00:22:13,640
What's up?
438
00:22:13,650 --> 00:22:15,430
Well?
439
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:21,370
I find katie lloyd to be?
440
00:22:22,100 --> 00:22:24,100
very,very sweet.
441
00:22:24,110 --> 00:22:26,250
That's great. So do I.
442
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:31,090
Oh! You're sweet? on katie.
443
00:22:31,100 --> 00:22:36,240
And? I'm not sure- - well,I
think she might be sweet on me,
444
00:22:36,250 --> 00:22:41,190
but I just know if I try to say anything
romantically inclined, it won't come out right.
445
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,220
I'll purr and?
446
00:22:43,230 --> 00:22:47,750
well,uh,jerry,office
romances are very complicated.
447
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:49,980
I'd even say treacherous.
448
00:22:49,990 --> 00:22:51,360
That's a bit of a bubble buster.
449
00:22:51,370 --> 00:22:54,230
No,no. It's not that they can't work out
450
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,450
or that they should
never be pursued but?
451
00:22:57,460 --> 00:23:00,690
look,I find lorraine to be?
452
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,360
very swe.
453
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,090
But one needs to proceed with caution.
454
00:23:07,100 --> 00:23:08,980
Even when the heart knows?
455
00:23:08,990 --> 00:23:10,220
Especially then.
456
00:23:10,230 --> 00:23:13,490
The heart can be a real bastard.
457
00:23:14,380 --> 00:23:16,180
You don't think she
could be sweet on me.
458
00:23:16,190 --> 00:23:16,930
I didn't say that.
459
00:23:16,940 --> 00:23:18,970
Yes,you did. You're
saying,"be cautious,jerry.
460
00:23:18,980 --> 00:23:20,370
She probably won't go for you.
461
00:23:20,380 --> 00:23:21,550
" - No,I did
not. - Did too!
462
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,220
did not!
463
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:36,120
you sought out the worst possible
counsel on the topic of romance or love,
464
00:23:36,130 --> 00:23:39,390
which I don't understand
and have never understood.
465
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:40,410
Why do you say that?
466
00:23:40,420 --> 00:23:43,670
Jerry,I just spent
six months with gloria.
467
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,160
On paper,I should be?
468
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,200
somewhat broken up over the breakup.
469
00:23:51,570 --> 00:23:53,910
And I've barely given her
a thought the last week.
470
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,210
I seem to be missing some kind of A?
471
00:23:58,450 --> 00:24:00,390
love gene.
472
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,700
Look,if it feels right with katie,perhaps
you should trust that feeling.
473
00:24:07,690 --> 00:24:09,470
But just proceed with
caution because- -
474
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,290
the heart can be a bastard.
475
00:24:14,170 --> 00:24:16,770
it's not just that it's against the law.
476
00:24:16,780 --> 00:24:19,780
It's indecent,barbaric?
477
00:24:19,790 --> 00:24:21,380
inhumane.
478
00:24:21,390 --> 00:24:23,810
Two chickens- -
roosters,I should say- -
479
00:24:23,820 --> 00:24:26,670
are thrown in a pit
and forc to do battle
480
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,920
until one loses consciousness
due to blood loss,
481
00:24:29,930 --> 00:24:33,280
at which point the
other pecks its head off.
482
00:24:33,290 --> 00:24:34,360
It's sicK.
483
00:24:34,370 --> 00:24:35,830
And this man openly,
484
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:40,070
notoriously broke the
law to commit a sick,
485
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,950
sick crime,one he admits committing.
486
00:24:44,490 --> 00:24:49,890
Just having a nun translate for you
doesn't put you on the side of the angels.
487
00:24:56,630 --> 00:24:58,300
Denny,when the district attorney speaks,
488
00:24:58,310 --> 00:25:01,530
it's not appropriate for
you to nod in agreement.
489
00:25:07,170 --> 00:25:09,900
oh,I? do you realize chickens
are smarter than dogs?
490
00:25:09,910 --> 00:25:12,940
Much,much smarter than horses.
491
00:25:12,950 --> 00:25:14,960
And we call them fowl.
492
00:25:15,740 --> 00:25:21,830
How sad that the chicken by far is
the most abused animal on the planet- -
493
00:25:22,210 --> 00:25:24,780
raised in crates less
than a square foot,
494
00:25:24,790 --> 00:25:28,430
the ends of their beaks
snapped off after hatching,
495
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:34,460
pumped up with antibiotics to kp them alive
in conditions that would otherwise kill them,
496
00:25:34,470 --> 00:25:38,500
genetically altered so that
they grow twice as fast,
497
00:25:38,510 --> 00:25:42,500
sent off to the slaughterhouse
after only six weeks of living,
498
00:25:42,510 --> 00:25:48,240
typically in open crates where millions of
them either freeze to death or get baked alive.
499
00:25:48,250 --> 00:25:52,750
The ones who do arrive undead are scalded to de
- feather them.
500
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:57,290
Then they're hung upside down
and electrocuted just enough
501
00:25:57,300 --> 00:26:00,900
so they don't flap around while
getting their throats slit.
502
00:26:00,910 --> 00:26:04,180
It's not good to be a chicken.
503
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,110
Now the
cockfighters- -
504
00:26:08,120 --> 00:26:10,350
they get real food.
505
00:26:10,360 --> 00:26:12,990
They get real room to move.
506
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:17,090
They're often loved as pets.
507
00:26:17,100 --> 00:26:21,450
They get at least two good years
508
00:26:21,460 --> 00:26:24,530
before they're even asked to do combat.
509
00:26:24,830 --> 00:26:27,790
And if he's a really good fighter,
510
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,450
he gets to retire to stud service,
511
00:26:30,460 --> 00:26:34,500
where he could live the life
of- - well,of denny crane.
512
00:26:35,180 --> 00:26:38,350
The simple truth is that
if a chicken in this country
513
00:26:38,360 --> 00:26:42,710
hopes to be afforded
a modicum of dignity,
514
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,680
he has to fight.
515
00:26:45,620 --> 00:26:48,890
Studies show they
might actually enjoy it.
516
00:26:48,900 --> 00:26:54,690
Now I suppose you could find my
client guilty because technically,
517
00:26:54,700 --> 00:27:00,160
he broke a law which
screams out with hypocrisy.
518
00:27:00,170 --> 00:27:03,660
Or you could say,"wait a second.
519
00:27:04,050 --> 00:27:08,640
Miguel obisbo offers
chickens a better life.
520
00:27:09,380 --> 00:27:10,820
" Miguel obisbO?
521
00:27:10,830 --> 00:27:15,830
now trusts you to be humane,
522
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,090
not just for his sake?
523
00:27:20,510 --> 00:27:22,490
but for the chickens.
524
00:27:44,220 --> 00:27:45,460
$125,000.
525
00:27:45,470 --> 00:27:46,300
Nonstarter.
526
00:27:46,310 --> 00:27:50,000
My client did absolutely nothing wrong.
There is no evidence of malpractice- -
527
00:27:50,010 --> 00:27:52,930
discussion of evidence is premature
since we haven't begun discovery.
528
00:27:52,940 --> 00:27:56,680
But what we do know is mr. Rice's
mental well-being deteriorated
529
00:27:56,690 --> 00:27:58,690
while under the continued
care of dr. Farrell.
530
00:27:58,700 --> 00:28:03,260
And during that time,he was never once warned
that psychotherapy had a 40% failure rate,
531
00:28:03,270 --> 00:28:05,230
and in fact could worsen symptoms.
532
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:06,790
40%.
533
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:11,000
If any drug had that failure rate,it
would be yanked off the market in days.
534
00:28:11,010 --> 00:28:13,970
Your client should be happy to settle for
any amount as long as it's confidential
535
00:28:13,980 --> 00:28:17,150
and within the policy limits,his
limit being $1 million.
536
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,360
We're not giving you $1 million.
537
00:28:18,370 --> 00:28:19,800
A man died here!
538
00:28:19,810 --> 00:28:23,440
Treatment,failure to warn,dead-
- that's a plaintiff trifecta.
539
00:28:23,450 --> 00:28:26,040
40% failure rate in psychotherapy.
540
00:28:26,050 --> 00:28:28,390
None of us wants to see that headline.
541
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,110
Actually,can live with it.
542
00:28:32,890 --> 00:28:35,650
Matthew rice perhaps could've.
543
00:28:37,410 --> 00:28:40,260
$375,000. That's as
high as I'm authozed.
544
00:28:40,270 --> 00:28:42,450
I need to speak to somebody
with more authority then.
545
00:28:42,460 --> 00:28:44,190
Then why don't you give me your number?
546
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,370
$650,000.
547
00:28:46,380 --> 00:28:48,280
$550,000.
548
00:28:48,290 --> 00:28:49,850
Nothing structured,all up front?
549
00:28:49,860 --> 00:28:51,100
Sealed,no admission.
550
00:28:51,110 --> 00:28:52,570
I'll recommend it.
551
00:28:58,790 --> 00:29:02,600
- we just nicked $550,000 off them.
- We did.
552
00:29:02,610 --> 00:29:04,400
Jerry,that was fantastic. Brilliant.
553
00:29:04,410 --> 00:29:05,940
Brilliant! Well?
554
00:29:05,950 --> 00:29:08,400
u're the dog's bollocks,that's
what you are. Fantastic.
555
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:16,600
your honor,I think we all agree that
15 is too young to be having sex.
556
00:29:16,610 --> 00:29:18,600
Is there anyone here who
takes issue with that?
557
00:29:19,230 --> 00:29:23,980
Sometimes when the right
answer is "no," you say "no.
558
00:29:24,310 --> 00:29:28,190
" You don't start tinkering with
morality to coincide with logistics.
559
00:29:28,740 --> 00:29:30,410
Kids need to hear "no.
560
00:29:30,420 --> 00:29:33,600
" Not "here's how,just
in case," but "no.
561
00:29:33,610 --> 00:29:35,670
" Abstinence was the right answer here.
562
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:39,550
If she hadn't had sex,e
wouldn't be H. I. V. Positive.
563
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:45,180
And even if you are so
determined to opt for pragmatism,
564
00:29:45,190 --> 00:29:47,420
abstinence is still the right answer.
565
00:29:47,430 --> 00:29:49,970
Since the implementation of this policy,
566
00:29:49,980 --> 00:29:53,130
the teen pregnancy
rate has gone down 30%.
567
00:29:53,140 --> 00:29:55,760
More and more kids are
choosing not to have sex.
568
00:29:55,770 --> 00:29:59,480
And that's good,whether they
getick or pregnant or not.
569
00:29:59,490 --> 00:30:04,410
And if parents disagree,by the
way,they can choose to teach their kids
570
00:30:04,420 --> 00:30:07,820
about condoms and birth
control pills and diaphragms.
571
00:30:07,830 --> 00:30:11,000
But once the school
starts doing so,come on.
572
00:30:11,010 --> 00:30:15,560
You're implicitly telling the kids it's
expected of them to be sexually active.
573
00:30:15,570 --> 00:30:18,810
And many start doing so because
they feel all their friends are.
574
00:30:19,370 --> 00:30:21,770
Sure,we can pass out condoms.
575
00:30:21,780 --> 00:30:25,370
But it is simply more
responsible,more moral and yes,
576
00:30:25,380 --> 00:30:28,480
more safe to practice abstinence.
577
00:30:28,490 --> 00:30:30,470
That's what we should be telling them.
578
00:30:31,510 --> 00:30:33,570
And this school is.
579
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,200
This case isn't about teenage pregnancy.
580
00:30:37,210 --> 00:30:39,850
She didn't get pregnanT.
She got H. I. V.
581
00:30:39,860 --> 00:30:43,040
I can see why you'd want to make
it about teenage pregnancy sincE?
582
00:30:44,100 --> 00:30:46,060
well,actually,I can'T.
583
00:30:46,070 --> 00:30:50,780
The united states has the worst teen
pregnancy rate of any industrialized nation.
584
00:30:50,790 --> 00:30:54,070
And contrary to what mr.Jovanka
would like us to believe,
585
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:59,110
there is no evidence whatsoever
that suggests using condoms
586
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:04,170
or teaching students about condoms
makes them any more inclined to have sex.
587
00:31:04,180 --> 00:31:05,310
None.
588
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:08,550
They're already inclined to have sex
and have been since early puberty.
589
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,250
They're simply going
to do it. We all do it.
590
00:31:10,260 --> 00:31:12,810
Birds do it. Bees do
it. Educated fleas do it.
591
00:31:12,820 --> 00:31:14,480
One day,your
honor,even you- -
592
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:21,910
yes,the fact is this case has nothing to do
with the efficacy of abstinence only programs.
593
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,980
This case is about religion,politics
and federal funding.
594
00:31:25,990 --> 00:31:30,240
Our present administration,in blind
service to the religious right,
595
00:31:30,250 --> 00:31:33,670
has transcended the
separation of church and stat
596
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:38,720
and consistently implemented a faith
- based political and moral mandate.
597
00:31:38,730 --> 00:31:42,980
And now that same policy has been
passed on to our educational system.
598
00:31:42,990 --> 00:31:47,090
If schools teach abstinence
only,they get federal funding.
599
00:31:47,100 --> 00:31:50,350
If they teach any other type
of sex education,they don'T.
600
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:51,510
And as a result,
601
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:56,200
the students in these abstinence only
programs aren't being taught the truth
602
00:31:56,210 --> 00:31:59,950
about that magnificent
technological marvel the condom.
603
00:31:59,960 --> 00:32:02,530
That's not a dirty
word,your honor. Condoms.
604
00:32:03,260 --> 00:32:07,960
They first came on the scene
some 3,000 years ago in egypt.
605
00:32:07,970 --> 00:32:12,030
For centuries they went
merrily along in modified forms,
606
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:16,760
warding off syphilis,gorrhea,preventing
unplanned pregnancies,
607
00:32:16,770 --> 00:32:19,400
until science and medicine
eventually caught up
608
00:32:19,410 --> 00:32:22,930
and the pill became a much more
effective,less intrusive contraceptive.
609
00:32:22,940 --> 00:32:27,900
Penicillin and other antibiotics were
miracle cures for gonorrhea and syphilis.
610
00:32:27,910 --> 00:32:31,270
The poor,humble condom languished.
611
00:32:32,270 --> 00:32:35,430
And then came A. I. D. S? this?
612
00:32:36,860 --> 00:32:41,350
terrifying new disease
that panicked the world.
613
00:32:41,940 --> 00:32:45,580
For many years,it has been
fatal,gruesomely so in every case.
614
00:32:45,590 --> 00:32:48,220
There was no vaccine,no
cure,no treatment.
615
00:32:48,230 --> 00:32:50,290
But there were condoms,and they worked.
616
00:32:50,300 --> 00:32:56,070
They were safe,time tested,easy to
use,and they protected both partners.
617
00:32:56,570 --> 00:33:02,790
The condom is arguably the single most
important invention of the past 2,000 years.
618
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:07,990
In fact,it has been said without exaggeration
that the health of the world depends on them.
619
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:13,490
Now one would think that the obvious choice would
be for schools to tell their students as much.
620
00:33:13,500 --> 00:33:18,760
But abby's school- - indeed,all schools that
teach abstinence only- - have chosen to lie.
621
00:33:18,770 --> 00:33:22,210
They teach that condoms are ineffective
at preventing pregnancies,which is a lie.
622
00:33:22,220 --> 00:33:25,470
They teach that condoms are ineffective
at preventing diseases,which is a lie.
623
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:29,940
Some of the literature actually compares
using a condom to playing russian roulette,
624
00:33:29,950 --> 00:33:33,860
which is a
frightening,despicable,unforgivable lie.
625
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:52,620
Abby holt has H.I.V.
626
00:33:52,630 --> 00:33:55,620
,Which in all likelihood
will develop into A.I.D.S.
627
00:33:55,630 --> 00:33:59,260
We've sort of forgotten about
A.I.D.S. In this country.
628
00:34:00,230 --> 00:34:02,980
Treatments have improved dramatically.
629
00:34:02,990 --> 00:34:06,810
Drugs are keeping people alive for
many years after they become infected.
630
00:34:06,820 --> 00:34:12,290
But the grim butcher's bill for this
pandemic still keeps growing and growing.
631
00:34:12,300 --> 00:34:16,430
65 million people worldwide
have become infected.
632
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,840
Onetime unprotected sex can kill you.
633
00:34:20,210 --> 00:34:22,370
A condom can save you.
634
00:34:22,380 --> 00:34:28,040
It is inconceivable that
every child in the world
635
00:34:28,050 --> 00:34:29,430
n't taught that.
636
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,080
We should be in criminal
court this very moment,
637
00:34:32,090 --> 00:34:36,530
trying this obscenely duplicitous
school for conspiracy to commit murder.
638
00:34:48,970 --> 00:34:51,100
But frankly,I have no?
639
00:34:52,330 --> 00:34:54,570
stomach for that.
640
00:34:55,690 --> 00:35:00,790
I think of the horror that has been
inflicted on this 15- year-old girl,
641
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:05,510
and I'm just so profoundly sad.
642
00:35:06,930 --> 00:35:09,330
I can point out the evils
of this corrupt system.
643
00:35:09,340 --> 00:35:13,860
I can tell you how effective condoms are,the
lives they save on and on and on and on and
644
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:18,800
but words seem to be these hollow,
645
00:35:18,810 --> 00:35:21,380
useless things rattling
around in this courtroom.
646
00:35:21,390 --> 00:35:26,250
Because ultimately the lies
this school told abby holt may?
647
00:35:26,720 --> 00:35:28,490
will probably ll her.
648
00:35:29,740 --> 00:35:32,210
They have certainly
altered her life forever.
649
00:35:32,220 --> 00:35:35,380
And in the face of
that,all I can think of is?
650
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,430
why?
651
00:35:50,930 --> 00:35:53,210
I give long closings.
652
00:36:04,470 --> 00:36:06,200
all rise.
653
00:36:08,590 --> 00:36:09,820
I'm a little nervous. You?
654
00:36:09,830 --> 00:36:11,550
The suspense is killing me.
655
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,190
Tell you what,I'll give you some insurance.
$100,000- - cut your loss in half.
656
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:16,910
The man is
guilty,black- and- white.
657
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,190
Has the jury reached
a unanimous verdict?
658
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:20,490
We have,your honor.
659
00:36:20,500 --> 00:36:21,870
How say you?
660
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,040
In the matter of the
commonwealth vs.Miguel obisbo,
661
00:36:25,050 --> 00:36:27,790
we the jury find the
defendant miguel obisbo?
662
00:36:29,070 --> 00:36:30,080
not guilty.
663
00:36:30,090 --> 00:36:31,600
What?
664
00:36:31,610 --> 00:36:32,970
We appeal,your honor.
665
00:36:32,980 --> 00:36:35,930
Mr. Crane,you can't appeal an acquittal.
666
00:36:35,940 --> 00:36:40,110
And it would be especially
unusual for the defense to try.
667
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,410
We're adjourned. The
defendant is free to go.
668
00:36:42,830 --> 00:36:43,870
gracias,senor sack.
669
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:45,690
Hey,hey,hey!
670
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,290
yes,I'm sure you're telling
me that you're very happy.
671
00:36:49,300 --> 00:36:50,820
I'm- - I'm
happy,too.
672
00:36:51,420 --> 00:36:54,200
You're welcome,miguel. Tell the family hi for me.
Bye- bye.
673
00:36:55,310 --> 00:36:57,320
Hey,don't you want to hug
miguel? He seems very happy.
674
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:00,870
Oh,mr. Crane?
675
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:11,790
oh,my. What do we have here?
676
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,260
I brought you some flowers
to celebrate our good result.
677
00:37:14,270 --> 00:37:16,310
Jerry,you positively?
678
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,280
I should be bringing you flowers
after your brilliant negotiation.
679
00:37:19,290 --> 00:37:20,670
You accomplished that result.
680
00:37:23,300 --> 00:37:27,030
I thought maybe we cou celebrate
by getting dinner tonight?
681
00:37:27,460 --> 00:37:29,430
That's a fab idea.
I'd love that. Brillnt.
682
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:30,680
Brilliant!
683
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,050
- 8:00?
- 8:00 it is.
684
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:42,490
jerry?
685
00:37:43,310 --> 00:37:47,110
it would be as colleagues
celebrating a litigation victory?
686
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,700
I only ask? I I wouldn't want
it to be construed as a date.
687
00:37:50,710 --> 00:37:53,120
Not that I think that was your
intent,but just to be clear
688
00:37:53,130 --> 00:37:55,990
no,no. I only meant as colleagues.
689
00:37:56,250 --> 00:38:00,130
Not that you wouldn't be an absolutely delightful
man to date. Any woman should be so lucky.
690
00:38:00,140 --> 00:38:02,530
But since I work with you,for me it'S?
691
00:38:02,540 --> 00:38:05,390
no. I
- I only meant as colleagues.
692
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,090
8:00 then?
693
00:38:08,100 --> 00:38:09,710
8:00.
694
00:38:19,010 --> 00:38:20,660
First?
695
00:38:20,670 --> 00:38:25,390
let me say I find this
national obsession with sex?
696
00:38:25,740 --> 00:38:27,190
to be disgusting.
697
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:32,180
Young girls walking around in t-shirts with
vulgar verbs written across their chests
698
00:38:32,190 --> 00:38:34,310
and on their buttocks,
699
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:39,580
television news,movies- -
it's all sex,sex,sex,sex,sex!
700
00:38:39,590 --> 00:38:41,950
- Outrageous.
- Outrageous.
701
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:46,850
And while I admire the school's motives
in trying to stress abstinence- -
702
00:38:46,860 --> 00:38:51,730
and they should- - the evidence suggests
that they are no less likely to fornicate
703
00:38:51,740 --> 00:38:55,620
and even more likely not
to use condoms when they do.
704
00:38:55,630 --> 00:39:00,150
The statistics on A.I.D.S. Are
horrifying,65 million and counting.
705
00:39:00,630 --> 00:39:04,850
A condom may just be the greatest health
advice we could possibly give our children,
706
00:39:04,860 --> 00:39:07,660
more important even than seat belts.
707
00:39:08,070 --> 00:39:11,750
In this sad,sad day
708
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:15,490
when sex seems to be everywhere,
709
00:39:15,500 --> 00:39:20,520
how can we fail to give
them proper sex education?
710
00:39:20,850 --> 00:39:25,610
I order the school district to
scrap its abstinence-only program,
711
00:39:25,620 --> 00:39:29,470
to start teaching sex education,
712
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:35,050
and I order them to pay
the petitioners $750,000
713
00:39:35,060 --> 00:39:37,420
in compensatory damages.
714
00:39:37,780 --> 00:39:39,370
adjourned.
715
00:39:39,990 --> 00:39:42,640
Oh,my gosh. I
- I never even asked for money,did I?
716
00:39:42,650 --> 00:39:44,350
No,you did not. Congratulations,abby.
717
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:46,360
Oh,thank you. Thank you
for all of your work.
718
00:39:46,370 --> 00:39:47,730
Oh,and- -
and thank you.
719
00:39:47,740 --> 00:39:50,460
Thank you. You're terrific.
720
00:39:50,470 --> 00:39:51,200
thank you.
721
00:39:51,210 --> 00:39:53,430
I must say,as satisfying
as the ruling was,
722
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,970
it was equally gratifying to know you
and I can work together without incident.
723
00:39:56,980 --> 00:39:58,510
Yes,very gratifying.
724
00:39:58,520 --> 00:39:59,970
The truth is?
725
00:39:59,980 --> 00:40:01,720
I felt perfectly comfortable.
726
00:40:01,730 --> 00:40:04,080
We just needed to get
it out of our system.
727
00:40:04,090 --> 00:40:05,190
And now it's out.
728
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:06,280
Completely.
729
00:40:06,290 --> 00:40:08,040
Congratulations,alan.
730
00:40:08,050 --> 00:40:09,740
You,too,lorraine.
731
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:23,610
Maybe it's the elevator.
732
00:40:24,780 --> 00:40:27,460
I had a thing about
desktops when i was younger?
733
00:40:28,990 --> 00:40:31,100
and the backseat of a cars?
734
00:40:31,110 --> 00:40:32,650
and farms.
735
00:40:32,660 --> 00:40:34,190
Is there something wrong with me,denny?
736
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,450
I don't even really think of gloria.
737
00:40:36,460 --> 00:40:38,720
Well,why should you? She's a
cold- hearted bitch- - gloria.
738
00:40:38,730 --> 00:40:40,480
She'd have been awful for you.
739
00:40:40,490 --> 00:40:42,100
Well,why didn't you ever tell me that?
740
00:40:42,110 --> 00:40:44,300
Well,you had to see it for
yourself,and I knew you would.
741
00:40:44,310 --> 00:40:47,310
Besides,you'd have dismissed
anything I had to say,
742
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,160
thinking that I was trying to split
you up so I could sleep with her.
743
00:40:50,380 --> 00:40:51,960
Can I now,by the way?
744
00:40:54,220 --> 00:40:56,770
Lorraine could be right for you.
745
00:40:57,490 --> 00:40:59,420
I don't know.
746
00:40:59,430 --> 00:41:02,940
It's just her smell and herarms
747
00:41:02,950 --> 00:41:05,610
and her? legs.
748
00:41:05,620 --> 00:41:07,090
Yes or no on gloria? Can I?
749
00:41:07,100 --> 00:41:08,920
You just said she was a cold
- hearted bitch.
750
00:41:08,930 --> 00:41:11,010
Yeah. I like that. Can I?
751
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,350
You know what? You're both consenting
adults. It's none of my business.
752
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:17,280
Well,that's a mature response.
753
00:41:18,780 --> 00:41:20,050
- Denny-
- no!
754
00:41:20,060 --> 00:41:23,650
Forget shirley. She's grandmothered in.
755
00:41:26,730 --> 00:41:28,290
I've just found joy
756
00:41:28,300 --> 00:41:30,170
oh,alan?
757
00:41:30,180 --> 00:41:32,400
aren't women just the best?
758
00:41:32,410 --> 00:41:33,960
Indeed.
759
00:41:33,970 --> 00:41:35,820
I love 'em all.
760
00:41:35,830 --> 00:41:37,180
They all love me.
761
00:41:38,950 --> 00:41:40,620
it's good to be denny crane.
762
00:41:40,630 --> 00:41:42,870
Not bad to be you right now.
763
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:45,530
It has its moments.
764
00:41:46,930 --> 00:41:48,940
Lorraine.
765
00:41:48,950 --> 00:41:50,900
Lemon lorraine pie.
