1
00:00:08,361 --> 00:00:09,795
It was horrible.
2
00:00:09,796 --> 00:00:11,530
I've never seen anything like it.
3
00:00:11,531 --> 00:00:13,265
Fred, you cannot expel
a seven-year-old kid
4
00:00:13,266 --> 00:00:14,532
for making faces.
5
00:00:14,533 --> 00:00:16,067
Well, you need to see it for yourself.
6
00:00:16,068 --> 00:00:17,535
It doesn't matter.
7
00:00:17,536 --> 00:00:19,938
I'm responsible for the
well-being of all the students.
8
00:00:19,939 --> 00:00:21,539
Oh, give me a break.
9
00:00:21,540 --> 00:00:24,542
Harry, they're all here.
10
00:00:24,543 --> 00:00:26,377
Okay.
11
00:00:26,378 --> 00:00:28,313
Hello, I'm Harry Korn,
representing the school.
12
00:00:28,314 --> 00:00:29,447
I'm sure you're familiar with
13
00:00:29,448 --> 00:00:30,547
Principal Villings.
14
00:00:31,615 --> 00:00:33,483
You must be Natalie.
15
00:00:33,484 --> 00:00:34,551
Hello.
16
00:00:34,552 --> 00:00:36,653
It's so nice to meet you, dear.
17
00:00:36,654 --> 00:00:38,222
My, you're adorable!
18
00:00:39,824 --> 00:00:42,092
The fact that we're even having
this meeting is disgraceful.
19
00:00:46,730 --> 00:00:48,297
(elevator bell dings)
20
00:00:48,298 --> 00:00:50,666
Adam?
21
00:00:51,735 --> 00:00:53,302
Can I help you?
22
00:00:53,303 --> 00:00:55,804
It's me, Mags.
23
00:00:55,805 --> 00:00:56,973
Maggie Buchanan.
24
00:00:56,974 --> 00:00:58,841
Maggie?
25
00:00:58,842 --> 00:00:59,842
Hey!
26
00:00:59,843 --> 00:01:00,843
Wow, Maggie, hi.
27
00:01:00,844 --> 00:01:01,910
Hi.
28
00:01:01,911 --> 00:01:04,079
Big shot lawyer now, huh?
29
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:05,613
I... I wouldn't say big shot.
30
00:01:05,614 --> 00:01:08,616
God, you look fantastic.
31
00:01:08,617 --> 00:01:10,518
Cassie Reynolds, Maggie Buchanan.
32
00:01:10,519 --> 00:01:11,819
She's an old high school classmate.
33
00:01:11,820 --> 00:01:13,021
Another one.
34
00:01:14,590 --> 00:01:17,025
Um, Adam, can I talk to you?
35
00:01:17,026 --> 00:01:18,759
I kind of need some lawyer help.
36
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:20,594
Yeah, sure.
37
00:01:20,595 --> 00:01:23,364
The question I have is:
if we did find a suitable
38
00:01:23,365 --> 00:01:25,266
alternative school,
would you entertain the...
39
00:01:25,267 --> 00:01:27,434
No. Non-starter.
40
00:01:27,435 --> 00:01:29,036
Okay.
41
00:01:29,037 --> 00:01:30,170
There's no reason Natalie shouldn't be
44
00:01:32,707 --> 00:01:33,940
HARRY: Understood.
45
00:01:33,941 --> 00:01:35,008
And by the way, Natalie,
46
00:01:35,009 --> 00:01:36,609
if I implied otherwise,
47
00:01:36,610 --> 00:01:38,611
honey, I apologize, because I've heard
48
00:01:38,612 --> 00:01:40,446
nothing but what a terrific kid you are.
49
00:01:40,447 --> 00:01:42,115
Thank you.
50
00:01:42,116 --> 00:01:43,449
VILLINGS: It's just that
51
00:01:43,450 --> 00:01:45,118
all the other students
are afraid of you, sweetheart.
52
00:01:45,119 --> 00:01:46,953
Okay, Fred.
53
00:01:46,954 --> 00:01:48,454
May I respond to that?
54
00:01:48,455 --> 00:01:50,956
As principal, you might keep
in mind that school represents
55
00:01:50,957 --> 00:01:53,025
a child's first introduction into society,
56
00:01:53,026 --> 00:01:54,192
and it might be a goal
57
00:01:54,193 --> 00:01:56,295
to introduce tolerance into that society.
58
00:01:56,296 --> 00:01:58,063
We have a safe-school policy,
and we're very proud of it.
59
00:01:58,064 --> 00:01:59,464
And this is safe-school...
60
00:01:59,465 --> 00:02:00,565
Zero tolerance for intolerance!
61
00:02:00,566 --> 00:02:01,800
...victimized by bigotry and prejudice!
62
00:02:01,801 --> 00:02:03,302
HARRY: Okay, okay.
63
00:02:03,303 --> 00:02:05,137
Let's just all take a breath.
64
00:02:05,138 --> 00:02:07,038
Neville, maybe this might be
65
00:02:07,039 --> 00:02:08,872
a good time for Natalie to be excused.
66
00:02:08,873 --> 00:02:10,474
No.
67
00:02:10,475 --> 00:02:12,643
Natalie is a big girl, in part because
68
00:02:12,644 --> 00:02:14,478
she was forced to grow up quickly.
69
00:02:14,479 --> 00:02:17,848
So whatever you have to say,
you can say in front of her.
70
00:02:20,419 --> 00:02:23,086
Okay.
71
00:02:23,087 --> 00:02:25,322
A school system is about
serving the masses.
72
00:02:25,323 --> 00:02:28,491
It's a one-size-fits-all kind of deal
73
00:02:28,492 --> 00:02:31,328
and they don't tailor-make
their programs to fit the needs
74
00:02:31,329 --> 00:02:32,662
of one special student...
75
00:02:32,663 --> 00:02:34,064
My daughter is not a
special needs student.
76
00:02:34,065 --> 00:02:36,066
- Okay.
- Excuse me?
77
00:02:36,067 --> 00:02:37,567
Mrs. Drake, for one student
78
00:02:37,568 --> 00:02:39,168
to disrupt the decorum to the point...
79
00:02:39,169 --> 00:02:40,837
She is not a disruption!
80
00:02:40,838 --> 00:02:43,105
- Honey...
- She has a mild disability.
81
00:02:43,106 --> 00:02:45,942
Mrs. Drake, I can appreciate
that you're upset!
82
00:02:45,943 --> 00:02:48,511
(Harry and Mrs. Drake talking at once)
83
00:02:48,512 --> 00:02:50,245
There it is! There it is!
84
00:02:50,246 --> 00:02:51,747
Didn't I tell you? (wheezing, snarling)
85
00:02:53,517 --> 00:02:56,084
She'll be fine!
86
00:02:56,085 --> 00:02:57,853
Just let her relax!
87
00:02:57,854 --> 00:02:59,921
VILLINGS: It's horrible. It's horrible!
88
00:02:59,922 --> 00:03:01,590
All right, Fred! Shut up!
89
00:03:01,591 --> 00:03:04,025
(wheezing, snarling)
MR. DRAKE: Deep breaths.
90
00:03:04,026 --> 00:03:05,460
There you go.
91
00:03:05,461 --> 00:03:06,795
There you go.
92
00:03:06,796 --> 00:03:07,796
(wheezing)
93
00:03:17,821 --> 00:03:21,821
Harry's Law 2x14 - Les Horribles

00:03:25,881 --> 00:03:29,716
The technical name for it
is conversion disorder.
96
00:03:29,717 --> 00:03:31,551
Used to be called hysteria.
97
00:03:31,552 --> 00:03:34,321
It caused that ocular
spasm with her eyeball.
98
00:03:34,322 --> 00:03:37,790
And the sounds come
from a laryngeal spasm.
99
00:03:39,827 --> 00:03:41,294
(sighs)
100
00:03:41,295 --> 00:03:42,562
Well, Neville,
101
00:03:42,563 --> 00:03:45,231
you can see why it would
102
00:03:45,232 --> 00:03:46,899
freak out the other kids.
103
00:03:46,900 --> 00:03:49,902
Still isn't grounds
for expelling her, Harry.
104
00:03:49,903 --> 00:03:50,936
CASSIE: Harry. Sorry.
105
00:03:50,937 --> 00:03:53,439
Zachary Quinn called from Summit.
106
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:54,640
He sounds pretty distressed.
107
00:03:54,641 --> 00:03:56,008
Zachary.
108
00:03:57,077 --> 00:03:59,011
Okay.
109
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,481
Look, Harry, we got to work this out.
110
00:04:03,482 --> 00:04:05,250
You know as well as I do,
111
00:04:05,251 --> 00:04:07,785
if we go to court,
your guy's gonna get hammered,
112
00:04:07,786 --> 00:04:09,421
and mine...
113
00:04:09,422 --> 00:04:11,256
I'm just worried that that little girl
114
00:04:11,257 --> 00:04:12,657
is gonna get traumatized.
115
00:04:12,658 --> 00:04:15,193
We need to work it out.
116
00:04:17,262 --> 00:04:18,596
Ollie.
117
00:04:18,597 --> 00:04:19,764
Yeah?
118
00:04:19,765 --> 00:04:21,198
The trial lawyers gala... you going?
119
00:04:21,199 --> 00:04:22,934
No, not if I can help it.
120
00:04:22,935 --> 00:04:24,936
Listen, I'm one of the nominees
121
00:04:24,937 --> 00:04:27,104
for Trial Lawyer of the Year, 2011.
122
00:04:27,105 --> 00:04:28,539
No kidding. You?
123
00:04:28,540 --> 00:04:29,941
What do you think of my chances?
124
00:04:29,942 --> 00:04:30,942
Be honest.
125
00:04:30,943 --> 00:04:32,876
Okay.
126
00:04:32,877 --> 00:04:33,977
Zilch.
127
00:04:36,047 --> 00:04:38,347
I got a judgment out of fast food.
128
00:04:38,348 --> 00:04:39,783
Nobody does that.
129
00:04:39,784 --> 00:04:42,052
I got a Purple Heart for a vet.
130
00:04:42,053 --> 00:04:44,287
I was a strong advocate
for those green burials.
131
00:04:44,288 --> 00:04:45,455
It's environmental.
132
00:04:45,456 --> 00:04:47,057
Tommy.
133
00:04:50,060 --> 00:04:51,994
Maggie, if this is accurate,
it says you've already been
134
00:04:51,995 --> 00:04:53,796
found guilty for the offense
we're talking about here.
135
00:04:53,797 --> 00:04:55,464
But that's because the prosecution
136
00:04:55,465 --> 00:04:57,733
and my public defender said
that I would get off lenient.
137
00:04:57,734 --> 00:04:59,735
Now he's telling me three years.
138
00:04:59,736 --> 00:05:01,904
I can't do three years in jail, Adam.
139
00:05:01,905 --> 00:05:04,538
You have a pretty extensive record.
140
00:05:04,539 --> 00:05:06,975
It's just drugs and prostitution;
141
00:05:06,976 --> 00:05:08,209
it's all victimless.
142
00:05:10,245 --> 00:05:12,246
Ugh, uh-oh.
143
00:05:12,247 --> 00:05:13,314
What?
144
00:05:13,315 --> 00:05:14,415
You got Choirboy.
145
00:05:14,416 --> 00:05:16,884
The prosecuting attorney,
Upton Cruickshank.
146
00:05:16,885 --> 00:05:19,887
Nicknamed Choirboy
'cause he's... he's kind of
147
00:05:19,888 --> 00:05:21,589
like the morality police.
148
00:05:21,590 --> 00:05:23,424
This is his cause.
149
00:05:23,425 --> 00:05:25,559
Big-time.
150
00:05:29,331 --> 00:05:31,832
They didn't give me reasons.
151
00:05:31,833 --> 00:05:33,734
They'll perhaps give some to you.
152
00:05:33,735 --> 00:05:37,604
All they said is they don't
think I'm quite ready, like
153
00:05:37,605 --> 00:05:38,771
a biscuit in the oven,
154
00:05:38,772 --> 00:05:41,774
I just need to be left in a little longer.
155
00:05:41,775 --> 00:05:43,343
And in your sessions with the doctors,
156
00:05:43,344 --> 00:05:44,777
I take it your sister came up.
157
00:05:44,778 --> 00:05:46,412
Of course she comes up, Harry.
158
00:05:46,413 --> 00:05:48,515
She's pretty much why I'm here.
159
00:05:48,516 --> 00:05:51,618
Does she still talk to you, Zach?
160
00:05:53,453 --> 00:05:54,853
Sometimes.
161
00:05:56,289 --> 00:05:59,258
A lot of people dream about
deceased family members.
162
00:05:59,259 --> 00:06:00,792
That doesn't make me crazy.
163
00:06:00,793 --> 00:06:03,028
And in your dreams,
164
00:06:03,029 --> 00:06:05,130
she tell you the same message?
165
00:06:07,867 --> 00:06:10,701
It's the same message, Zach?
166
00:06:10,702 --> 00:06:12,036
Yes.
167
00:06:12,037 --> 00:06:15,072
Zach is convinced that his older sister
168
00:06:15,073 --> 00:06:16,474
was murdered by her husband.
169
00:06:16,475 --> 00:06:17,642
Because he did.
170
00:06:18,910 --> 00:06:20,944
He never loved her.
171
00:06:20,945 --> 00:06:24,481
Not even when he married her.
172
00:06:24,482 --> 00:06:27,884
She told me she was going to leave him,
173
00:06:27,885 --> 00:06:29,719
and then five days later,
174
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,656
they're in a car accident where she dies
175
00:06:32,657 --> 00:06:36,125
and he somehow magically lives,
176
00:06:36,126 --> 00:06:38,395
inheriting the house that
she built and paid for
177
00:06:38,396 --> 00:06:39,996
and an insurance policy worth
178
00:06:39,997 --> 00:06:42,064
$700,000.
179
00:06:42,065 --> 00:06:43,232
He had her killed.
180
00:06:43,233 --> 00:06:44,733
- I know it!
- The police
181
00:06:44,734 --> 00:06:45,901
- ever investigate this?
- No.
182
00:06:45,902 --> 00:06:47,903
- Well, they...
- They didn't!
183
00:06:47,904 --> 00:06:49,805
The accident was...
184
00:06:49,806 --> 00:06:52,474
the accident was staged.
185
00:06:52,475 --> 00:06:55,077
The man who ran the stop sign
186
00:06:55,078 --> 00:06:57,345
took full responsibility.
187
00:06:58,414 --> 00:07:01,416
It wasn't staged.
188
00:07:01,417 --> 00:07:02,817
You're obsessing again.
189
00:07:05,020 --> 00:07:06,987
Zach, are you taking your medication?
190
00:07:06,988 --> 00:07:11,259
I am not denying that I have
a delusional disorder.
191
00:07:11,260 --> 00:07:13,793
What I'm saying
192
00:07:13,794 --> 00:07:17,598
is that this is not one of my delusions.
193
00:07:17,599 --> 00:07:20,133
He had her killed.
194
00:07:24,205 --> 00:07:25,772
We already have a deal in place.
195
00:07:25,773 --> 00:07:27,807
That deal presupposed leniency.
196
00:07:27,808 --> 00:07:29,442
Which she got, Mr. Branch.
197
00:07:29,443 --> 00:07:31,110
Three years is especially lenient,
198
00:07:31,111 --> 00:07:32,278
given her infractions,
199
00:07:32,279 --> 00:07:33,713
together with her past record.
200
00:07:33,714 --> 00:07:34,947
The thing is it's
201
00:07:34,948 --> 00:07:36,449
a struggle for her to stay sober,
202
00:07:36,450 --> 00:07:38,284
a battle she's currently winning
203
00:07:38,285 --> 00:07:39,719
with the help of a program
which she attends every day.
204
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:43,356
If she were put in jail...
205
00:07:43,357 --> 00:07:46,291
they won't be able to
provide adequate treatment
206
00:07:46,292 --> 00:07:47,559
for her in prison.
207
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,294
Three years is the best I can do.
208
00:07:49,295 --> 00:07:50,462
Please, Mr. Cruickshank.
209
00:07:50,463 --> 00:07:52,731
I'm really trying here.
210
00:07:52,732 --> 00:07:55,900
Three years is the best I can do.
211
00:07:57,136 --> 00:07:59,738
You know, you think that you know me,
212
00:07:59,739 --> 00:08:00,972
but you don't.
213
00:08:00,973 --> 00:08:02,641
Okay, Maggie.
214
00:08:02,642 --> 00:08:04,576
You haven't even made
an attempt to know me.
215
00:08:04,577 --> 00:08:06,144
And yet you'd throw me
216
00:08:06,145 --> 00:08:07,912
into prison without even a thought.
217
00:08:09,180 --> 00:08:11,649
But I do know you, Ms. Buchanan.
218
00:08:11,650 --> 00:08:13,250
- You are a blight.
ADAM: - Okay...
219
00:08:13,251 --> 00:08:17,488
You destroy marriages and families.
220
00:08:17,489 --> 00:08:19,390
Husbands have relations
221
00:08:19,391 --> 00:08:20,924
with your disease-ridden offerings,
222
00:08:20,925 --> 00:08:22,426
and loving wives
223
00:08:22,427 --> 00:08:24,261
are devastated... children, too.
224
00:08:24,262 --> 00:08:28,864
Your crimes are anything
but victimless, Ms. Buchanan.
225
00:08:30,501 --> 00:08:34,337
Three years is the best I can do.
226
00:08:53,402 --> 00:08:55,203
Wait a second.
227
00:08:55,204 --> 00:08:57,439
You want me to go see him?
228
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,341
Mr. Bagley, Zachary, right now
229
00:09:01,342 --> 00:09:02,943
is being dominated by this obsession.
230
00:09:02,944 --> 00:09:05,179
You're actually in the best position
231
00:09:05,180 --> 00:09:06,413
to defuse it.
232
00:09:06,414 --> 00:09:07,581
Counsel, the boy accuses me
233
00:09:07,582 --> 00:09:09,015
of murdering my wife.
234
00:09:09,016 --> 00:09:10,684
If he were free, he'd be running around
235
00:09:10,685 --> 00:09:12,286
saying that at large.
236
00:09:12,287 --> 00:09:14,521
The goal is to get him to stop
saying it and stop thinking it.
237
00:09:14,522 --> 00:09:15,922
And again...
238
00:09:15,923 --> 00:09:17,690
He's not the only one
239
00:09:17,691 --> 00:09:19,459
who suffered a tragedy, Ms. Korn.
240
00:09:19,460 --> 00:09:22,528
I lost my wife, a woman I loved deeply.
241
00:09:22,529 --> 00:09:23,696
Understood.
242
00:09:23,697 --> 00:09:25,465
And loving her as deeply as you did...
243
00:09:25,466 --> 00:09:26,799
and I'm sure still do...
244
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,369
you must know how important
her brother was to her.
245
00:09:30,370 --> 00:09:32,705
She would want Zachary
to get well, Mr. Bagley,
246
00:09:32,706 --> 00:09:34,706
and if there was anything
you could to to...
247
00:09:34,707 --> 00:09:36,040
I can't.
248
00:09:36,041 --> 00:09:37,209
Frankly, I'm offended.
249
00:09:37,210 --> 00:09:38,710
You have me come to,
250
00:09:38,711 --> 00:09:40,712
to what, this little tavern so you can
251
00:09:40,713 --> 00:09:43,215
successfully represent
your client, after which,
252
00:09:43,216 --> 00:09:45,650
you will no doubt bill the state
for your services,
253
00:09:45,651 --> 00:09:47,785
at, what, $400 an hour?
254
00:09:47,786 --> 00:09:50,787
You're being a little hostile.
255
00:09:50,788 --> 00:09:53,290
- I lost my wife, Ms. Korn.
- Yes,
256
00:09:53,291 --> 00:09:55,826
you've told me that three times.
257
00:09:55,827 --> 00:09:58,795
Are you trying to
convince me of something?
258
00:10:01,299 --> 00:10:03,066
Now what's that supposed to mean?
259
00:10:03,067 --> 00:10:06,236
Well, as long as we're putting
our cards on the table,
260
00:10:06,237 --> 00:10:09,005
I'm finding you surprisingly unlikable.
261
00:10:09,006 --> 00:10:12,308
And what's also surprising, to be honest,
262
00:10:12,309 --> 00:10:15,011
is that this woman left
you a very wealthy man,
263
00:10:15,012 --> 00:10:17,079
and you haven't offered a nickel
264
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,282
to help the one person in
life she loved the most,
265
00:10:19,283 --> 00:10:20,583
next to you.
266
00:10:20,584 --> 00:10:23,752
Zachary is ill, Mr. Bagley.
267
00:10:23,753 --> 00:10:28,157
I would have expected you to sympathize.
268
00:10:28,158 --> 00:10:30,626
But maybe you don't think he's ill at all.
269
00:10:32,428 --> 00:10:34,929
Are you afraid he's of
completely sound mind?
270
00:10:34,930 --> 00:10:37,465
Is that it?
271
00:10:44,439 --> 00:10:47,241
OLLIE: What do you mean
you think he did it?
272
00:10:47,242 --> 00:10:48,509
I said maybe.
273
00:10:48,510 --> 00:10:50,444
I just get the same eerie feeling
274
00:10:50,445 --> 00:10:52,213
that Zach does... I don't trust this guy.
275
00:10:52,214 --> 00:10:53,613
- Come on, Harry.
- Just do me a favor, will you?
276
00:10:53,614 --> 00:10:54,947
Find out what...
277
00:10:54,948 --> 00:10:56,683
if any... investigation took place,
278
00:10:56,684 --> 00:10:58,117
contact the insurance company
279
00:10:58,118 --> 00:10:59,186
and get their file.
280
00:11:00,854 --> 00:11:03,356
Did you really nominate Tommy
for Trial Lawyer of the Year?
281
00:11:03,357 --> 00:11:04,524
Oh, God.
282
00:11:04,525 --> 00:11:05,625
He begged me.
283
00:11:05,626 --> 00:11:07,227
I mean, what am I supposed to do,
284
00:11:07,228 --> 00:11:08,461
say no?
285
00:11:08,462 --> 00:11:09,695
VILLINGS: - Harry?
- Fred.
286
00:11:09,696 --> 00:11:10,796
Come on in the office.
287
00:11:10,797 --> 00:11:11,797
Cassie.
288
00:11:11,798 --> 00:11:12,798
Yeah.
289
00:11:12,799 --> 00:11:15,234
Wait. Are... are you friends with Choirboy,
290
00:11:15,235 --> 00:11:17,135
- by any chance.
- Why?
291
00:11:17,136 --> 00:11:18,870
I got a client... prostitute,
multiple offenses.
292
00:11:18,871 --> 00:11:20,972
He's trying to jam her with three years.
293
00:11:20,973 --> 00:11:22,874
- How many priors?
- Two, three...
294
00:11:22,875 --> 00:11:24,476
ten.
295
00:11:24,477 --> 00:11:25,543
Take the three.
296
00:11:25,544 --> 00:11:27,478
With good behavior, she'll be out in 18.
297
00:11:27,479 --> 00:11:29,747
You don't want to go fooling
with Choirboy on morals crimes.
298
00:11:29,748 --> 00:11:31,416
Adam.
299
00:11:31,417 --> 00:11:34,419
I've been nominated for
Trial Lawyer of the Year.
300
00:11:37,089 --> 00:11:38,389
Chunhua, I need you
301
00:11:38,390 --> 00:11:40,391
to give Maggie a bit of a makeover.
302
00:11:40,392 --> 00:11:42,158
Can you do that? A makeover?
303
00:11:42,159 --> 00:11:43,360
We're in court tomorrow.
304
00:11:43,361 --> 00:11:45,729
I need her looking
a lot more presentable... a lot.
305
00:11:45,730 --> 00:11:47,564
Just get her a new dress,
maybe some makeup.
306
00:11:47,565 --> 00:11:48,998
Not too much makeup, given she's a...
307
00:11:48,999 --> 00:11:50,900
Can you do it?
308
00:11:50,901 --> 00:11:52,836
And you can't just nominate yourself, bug.
309
00:11:52,837 --> 00:11:55,004
Somebody has to second
it, which Harry did.
310
00:11:55,005 --> 00:11:56,506
Smart-ass.
311
00:11:56,507 --> 00:11:58,507
Bug.
312
00:11:59,610 --> 00:12:01,344
AMANDA: Maybe they just don't want you
313
00:12:01,345 --> 00:12:03,412
- to get your hopes up.
TOMMY: - It wasn't that.
314
00:12:03,413 --> 00:12:05,848
They weren't supportive.
315
00:12:05,849 --> 00:12:08,117
It was the idea that I could possibly win
316
00:12:08,118 --> 00:12:09,518
Trial Lawyer of the Year.
317
00:12:09,519 --> 00:12:12,187
They... scoffed at it.
318
00:12:12,188 --> 00:12:13,755
Well...
319
00:12:13,756 --> 00:12:15,857
you didn't hear this from me.
320
00:12:15,858 --> 00:12:17,191
What?
321
00:12:18,527 --> 00:12:19,961
What? You know something. What?
322
00:12:19,962 --> 00:12:21,363
All I know...
323
00:12:21,364 --> 00:12:24,633
I know Karen Stillworth,
the head of the committee.
324
00:12:24,634 --> 00:12:25,800
What? What?
325
00:12:25,801 --> 00:12:27,101
You have got to give me
326
00:12:27,102 --> 00:12:28,970
your word that you do not repeat this.
327
00:12:28,971 --> 00:12:30,371
I won't.
(scoffs)
328
00:12:30,372 --> 00:12:31,705
I won't.
329
00:12:31,706 --> 00:12:34,207
- What?
- Apparently,
330
00:12:34,208 --> 00:12:36,543
there's a human rights emphasis this year.
331
00:12:36,544 --> 00:12:38,211
And that case you did,
332
00:12:38,212 --> 00:12:39,980
fighting for the albinos,
333
00:12:39,981 --> 00:12:41,782
it's gotten their attention.
334
00:12:41,783 --> 00:12:44,385
Really?
335
00:12:44,386 --> 00:12:46,486
Plus they love it when a Cincinnati lawyer
336
00:12:46,487 --> 00:12:47,820
goes after anything Cleveland.
337
00:12:47,821 --> 00:12:49,088
Wow.
338
00:12:49,089 --> 00:12:50,390
Are you saying I could win?
339
00:12:50,391 --> 00:12:51,624
I don't know, Tommy.
340
00:12:51,625 --> 00:12:53,092
I have no inside information.
341
00:12:53,093 --> 00:12:54,960
But you have gotten their attention.
342
00:12:55,996 --> 00:12:57,229
And...
343
00:12:57,230 --> 00:12:59,299
Karen is a member of PETA.
344
00:12:59,300 --> 00:13:00,400
So you
345
00:13:00,401 --> 00:13:01,934
trying to get the gorilla
346
00:13:01,935 --> 00:13:04,904
personhood status... oh, big points.
347
00:13:07,974 --> 00:13:09,842
(snaps fingers, claps, knocks) Harry.
348
00:13:09,843 --> 00:13:11,177
You're not going to believe this.
349
00:13:11,178 --> 00:13:13,412
That accident... barely investigated.
350
00:13:13,413 --> 00:13:15,347
All cut and dry... guy ran a stop sign,
351
00:13:15,348 --> 00:13:17,349
admitted doing so...
no other witnesses... but...
352
00:13:17,350 --> 00:13:18,482
no skid marks.
353
00:13:18,483 --> 00:13:20,084
Is that unusual in collisions?
354
00:13:20,085 --> 00:13:21,419
Well, he hit the car broadside.
355
00:13:21,420 --> 00:13:22,753
He had to have seen it,
356
00:13:22,754 --> 00:13:23,988
at least last second.
357
00:13:23,989 --> 00:13:26,090
Possible he didn't have time
to react, sure,
358
00:13:26,091 --> 00:13:29,593
but, usually, there's
some evidence of skid marks.
359
00:13:29,594 --> 00:13:30,594
What else?
360
00:13:30,595 --> 00:13:32,096
Our friend, Alan Bagley,
361
00:13:32,097 --> 00:13:33,764
didn't just inherit the house
362
00:13:33,765 --> 00:13:36,166
and the $700,000 insurance policy.
363
00:13:36,167 --> 00:13:37,334
He sued the other driver.
364
00:13:37,335 --> 00:13:38,836
The case settled for $4.2 million.
365
00:13:38,837 --> 00:13:40,704
Okay.
366
00:13:40,705 --> 00:13:42,172
And this is where it gets interesting.
367
00:13:42,173 --> 00:13:43,173
The other driver was
368
00:13:43,174 --> 00:13:44,541
a guy named Adrian Terrace...
369
00:13:44,542 --> 00:13:47,144
string of part-time jobs,
a few run-ins with the law.
370
00:13:47,145 --> 00:13:48,212
Eight months after the settlement,
371
00:13:48,213 --> 00:13:49,346
his bank account suddenly grows
372
00:13:49,347 --> 00:13:50,612
by a half a million dollars,
373
00:13:50,613 --> 00:13:53,015
and Mr. Terrace was a 2003 graduate
374
00:13:53,016 --> 00:13:57,786
of Indiana University,
just like Alan Bagley.
375
00:13:57,787 --> 00:14:00,323
Did they ever do an autopsy on our victim?
376
00:14:00,324 --> 00:14:01,858
Nope.
377
00:14:01,859 --> 00:14:03,059
Please don't tell me cremated.
378
00:14:03,060 --> 00:14:04,827
Columbus Memorial Cemetery.
379
00:14:04,828 --> 00:14:08,696
What are my chances
of getting a body exhumed?
380
00:14:08,697 --> 00:14:11,666
With police support, doable,
without it, less so.
381
00:14:11,667 --> 00:14:13,401
What if a prosecutor issued a warrant?
382
00:14:13,402 --> 00:14:14,970
That would speed things up.
383
00:14:14,971 --> 00:14:16,537
HARRY: Good, start calling
384
00:14:16,538 --> 00:14:17,906
all your friends.
385
00:14:17,907 --> 00:14:19,875
We're going to dig this girl up.
386
00:14:19,876 --> 00:14:22,809
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
I don't have any any friends.
387
00:14:22,810 --> 00:14:24,711
Never mind that prostitution
should probably be legalized
388
00:14:24,712 --> 00:14:27,181
anyway, given it would save lives
389
00:14:27,182 --> 00:14:28,749
and allow police and courts
390
00:14:28,750 --> 00:14:31,051
to allocate time
to more serious matters...
391
00:14:31,052 --> 00:14:32,552
Yes, never mind that.
392
00:14:32,553 --> 00:14:35,022
(chuckles)
A plea bargain is basically a contract,
393
00:14:35,023 --> 00:14:36,390
Your Honor, an agreement
394
00:14:36,391 --> 00:14:38,358
between the prosecution and the defense.
395
00:14:38,359 --> 00:14:40,693
It's a contract, and to
be binding there must be
396
00:14:40,694 --> 00:14:41,727
a meeting of the minds.
397
00:14:41,728 --> 00:14:42,929
Here there wasn't.
398
00:14:42,930 --> 00:14:44,597
My client never agreed to a deal
399
00:14:44,598 --> 00:14:46,266
that would call for three years in prison.
400
00:14:46,267 --> 00:14:47,367
She simply...
401
00:14:47,368 --> 00:14:49,235
She was asked by a judge in the court,
402
00:14:49,236 --> 00:14:50,870
"Do you agree to this?"
403
00:14:50,871 --> 00:14:52,338
She said "Yes."
404
00:14:52,339 --> 00:14:53,506
That was to the guilty plea,
405
00:14:53,507 --> 00:14:54,539
not the sentence.
406
00:14:54,540 --> 00:14:56,341
No sentence was ever agreed upon.
407
00:14:56,342 --> 00:14:57,509
I have the proffer, Judge,
408
00:14:57,510 --> 00:14:58,911
as do you and defense counsel.
409
00:14:58,912 --> 00:15:00,678
It says "in consideration"
410
00:15:00,679 --> 00:15:03,181
"for a reduced sentence." This
would be a reduced sentence.
411
00:15:03,182 --> 00:15:04,783
The defendant has multiple convictions
412
00:15:04,784 --> 00:15:05,784
both for prostitution
413
00:15:05,785 --> 00:15:07,685
and controlled substances.
414
00:15:07,686 --> 00:15:09,354
Three years is more than fair.
415
00:15:09,355 --> 00:15:11,022
And might I say
416
00:15:11,023 --> 00:15:14,225
I am beyond offended by the notion
417
00:15:14,226 --> 00:15:15,692
that prostitution be decriminalized?
418
00:15:15,693 --> 00:15:16,960
To do so
419
00:15:16,961 --> 00:15:18,962
would send the message that
there's nothing wrong with it.
420
00:15:18,963 --> 00:15:19,963
It would facilitate
421
00:15:19,964 --> 00:15:21,631
the sex slave trade,
422
00:15:21,632 --> 00:15:23,199
it would promote sex trafficking
423
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,535
even at the schools amongst our children.
424
00:15:25,536 --> 00:15:27,703
It would shock the conscience of God,
425
00:15:27,704 --> 00:15:29,272
of morality itself, of me,
426
00:15:29,273 --> 00:15:30,473
and... I would hope... you.
427
00:15:30,474 --> 00:15:32,708
Yeah, thanks for that.
428
00:15:32,709 --> 00:15:34,209
The defendant
429
00:15:34,210 --> 00:15:36,278
is ordered to serve three years
430
00:15:36,279 --> 00:15:37,980
at Carson Prison.
431
00:15:37,981 --> 00:15:41,116
She will be remanded
into custody forthwith.
432
00:15:41,117 --> 00:15:43,552
Next matter, please.
433
00:15:43,553 --> 00:15:44,753
You can't even look at her?
434
00:15:46,289 --> 00:15:49,324
You just throw somebody's life away,
435
00:15:49,325 --> 00:15:51,492
you can't even be bothered to look at her?
436
00:15:51,493 --> 00:15:53,461
That's a human being
437
00:15:53,462 --> 00:15:54,728
sitting over there, Judge,
438
00:15:54,729 --> 00:15:56,897
one who's fighting for her life.
439
00:15:56,898 --> 00:15:58,833
Maybe you should switch careers
440
00:15:58,834 --> 00:16:00,969
if this one has you so calloused over.
441
00:16:00,970 --> 00:16:04,905
Counsel, for your client's sake
and perhaps your own,
442
00:16:04,906 --> 00:16:07,474
it would be wise to stop talking.
443
00:16:08,476 --> 00:16:09,576
Take the defendant
444
00:16:09,577 --> 00:16:11,578
into custody, please.
445
00:16:11,579 --> 00:16:13,780
Next case.
446
00:16:16,851 --> 00:16:18,151
I'm sorry.
447
00:16:18,152 --> 00:16:19,853
Adam, can I talk to you for two minutes?
448
00:16:19,854 --> 00:16:21,753
It's very important,
449
00:16:21,754 --> 00:16:23,655
and I need a friend of mine to be there.
450
00:16:23,656 --> 00:16:25,624
She's sitting over there.
451
00:16:25,625 --> 00:16:28,660
(handcuffs clicking)
452
00:16:35,002 --> 00:16:37,202
What's this about?
453
00:16:37,203 --> 00:16:39,704
Well, when I saw Cruickshank yesterday,
454
00:16:39,705 --> 00:16:40,705
I thought his face looked familiar,
455
00:16:40,706 --> 00:16:41,706
but I couldn't place it.
456
00:16:42,774 --> 00:16:45,610
Then...
457
00:16:45,611 --> 00:16:47,045
I used to work at this service.
458
00:16:47,046 --> 00:16:49,447
Nina still works there.
459
00:16:49,448 --> 00:16:51,516
An escort service?
460
00:16:51,517 --> 00:16:53,550
Yes.
461
00:16:53,551 --> 00:16:55,719
I asked Nina to come in this morning
462
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,354
to see if she can confirm.
463
00:16:57,355 --> 00:16:58,788
Tell him.
464
00:16:58,789 --> 00:17:01,225
That man is a client.
465
00:17:01,226 --> 00:17:03,860
He comes in all the time,
plus girls go to him.
466
00:17:03,861 --> 00:17:05,629
- Cruickshank?
- I've been
467
00:17:05,630 --> 00:17:07,864
in a hotel room with
him two or three times,
468
00:17:07,865 --> 00:17:08,999
I'm sure of it.
469
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,466
We call him Gerber-boy
470
00:17:10,467 --> 00:17:12,468
because he makes these little
baby sounds whenever you...
471
00:17:12,469 --> 00:17:15,304
That man... Upton Cruickshank?
472
00:17:15,305 --> 00:17:17,473
He also likes to dress up in
women's clothing sometimes.
473
00:17:17,474 --> 00:17:19,075
MAGGIE: Tell him the rest.
474
00:17:19,076 --> 00:17:20,309
NINA: Well, at The Elegant...
475
00:17:20,310 --> 00:17:22,645
that's what the place
is called, The Elegant...
476
00:17:22,646 --> 00:17:25,980
we have some clients who
give us safety concerns.
477
00:17:25,981 --> 00:17:27,149
He's one.
478
00:17:27,150 --> 00:17:28,917
He likes his sex on the rough side.
479
00:17:28,918 --> 00:17:30,485
(sighs) All of the rooms have
480
00:17:30,486 --> 00:17:33,088
cameras installed for our protection.
481
00:17:33,089 --> 00:17:34,989
You have photographs of this man?
482
00:17:34,990 --> 00:17:36,491
And film.
483
00:17:47,042 --> 00:17:49,477
- Choirboy?
- They have film. This girl Nina
484
00:17:49,478 --> 00:17:50,545
is gonna show it to me.
485
00:17:50,546 --> 00:17:51,546
Can I see?
486
00:17:51,547 --> 00:17:52,547
What are you going to do?
487
00:17:52,548 --> 00:17:54,215
I don't know.
488
00:17:54,216 --> 00:17:55,616
What do you mean you don't know?
489
00:17:55,617 --> 00:17:57,552
You use it... you go to Choirboy,
490
00:17:57,553 --> 00:17:59,653
tell him to free your client
or you'll expose him.
491
00:17:59,654 --> 00:18:00,720
That's extortion.
492
00:18:00,721 --> 00:18:02,155
It's unethical and criminal,
493
00:18:02,156 --> 00:18:04,724
Mr. Trial Lawyer of the Year nominee.
494
00:18:04,725 --> 00:18:07,060
You have a get-out-of-jail-
free card, you use it.
495
00:18:07,061 --> 00:18:08,061
What's to think about?
496
00:18:08,062 --> 00:18:09,396
I'm not hearing this.
497
00:18:09,397 --> 00:18:11,798
This is a no-brainer, Adam.
498
00:18:11,799 --> 00:18:13,066
Which is why you came up with it.
499
00:18:13,067 --> 00:18:15,469
(chuckles)
500
00:18:15,470 --> 00:18:17,736
Get the pictures, get to Choirboy,
501
00:18:17,737 --> 00:18:20,639
and jack his righteous ass
right up the flagpole.
502
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,641
Do it.
503
00:18:28,081 --> 00:18:30,082
(knocking)
504
00:18:31,485 --> 00:18:34,252
Thank you for agreeing to see me.
505
00:18:34,253 --> 00:18:37,255
I didn't, I agreed to be seen by you,
506
00:18:37,256 --> 00:18:40,458
which you've done, so off you go now.
507
00:18:41,494 --> 00:18:43,495
(sighs)
508
00:18:43,496 --> 00:18:44,695
I need a favor.
509
00:18:46,265 --> 00:18:48,499
I have a strong suspicion
that a murder occurred,
510
00:18:48,500 --> 00:18:50,501
staged to look like a car accident.
511
00:18:50,502 --> 00:18:53,270
There was motive, no skid marks.
512
00:18:53,271 --> 00:18:56,373
Two college acquaintances
in the crash, both profited,
513
00:18:56,374 --> 00:18:57,774
a wife was killed.
514
00:18:57,775 --> 00:18:59,709
It's all here in this file,
515
00:18:59,710 --> 00:19:03,213
thin as it is because
nobody really investigated.
516
00:19:03,214 --> 00:19:05,615
I want to exhume the body.
517
00:19:05,616 --> 00:19:07,717
If I go into court,
the husband will oppose
518
00:19:07,718 --> 00:19:09,385
and likely prevail.
519
00:19:09,386 --> 00:19:11,788
If, on the other hand,
your office seeks the warrant,
520
00:19:11,789 --> 00:19:13,456
it could happen.
521
00:19:13,457 --> 00:19:15,959
All the prosecutors that my
associates have spoken with...
522
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,028
they're not interested in
digging up a case where they'll
523
00:19:18,029 --> 00:19:19,629
likely never get a conviction.
524
00:19:19,630 --> 00:19:21,130
Eh, why bother?
525
00:19:21,131 --> 00:19:22,464
Roseanna,
526
00:19:22,465 --> 00:19:25,467
if a murder has occurred,
I know you'll care.
527
00:19:26,469 --> 00:19:28,537
Am I right?
528
00:19:30,540 --> 00:19:33,809
You once told me that
your job was a calling.
529
00:19:33,810 --> 00:19:35,811
If that's true...
530
00:19:35,812 --> 00:19:39,513
Roseanna, I've looked
into this husband's eyes.
531
00:19:39,514 --> 00:19:40,882
He's a bad guy.
532
00:19:40,883 --> 00:19:42,650
He's living rich.
533
00:19:42,651 --> 00:19:43,851
He just redid his house,
534
00:19:43,852 --> 00:19:45,753
he imported the front door from Italy...
535
00:19:45,754 --> 00:19:47,421
worth $200,000 alone.
536
00:19:47,422 --> 00:19:49,490
He takes exotic trips.
537
00:19:49,491 --> 00:19:52,560
All with blood money, Roseanna,
538
00:19:52,561 --> 00:19:54,861
money he got from killing his wife.
539
00:20:18,952 --> 00:20:21,954
♪ ♪
540
00:20:26,859 --> 00:20:28,459
(siren chirps)
541
00:20:28,460 --> 00:20:30,461
I really appreciate your doing this.
542
00:20:30,462 --> 00:20:31,696
Whatever.
543
00:20:31,697 --> 00:20:33,732
You don't need to be here.
544
00:20:33,733 --> 00:20:35,433
In fact, it'd be lovely if you weren't.
545
00:20:35,434 --> 00:20:37,035
Can't you just be gracious
546
00:20:37,036 --> 00:20:39,204
and accept a little gratitude?
547
00:20:39,205 --> 00:20:41,038
No.
548
00:20:41,039 --> 00:20:42,940
I'm due in court for the eyeball kid.
549
00:20:42,941 --> 00:20:45,142
Maybe you need to take this over.
550
00:20:50,115 --> 00:20:52,750
Unbelievable.
551
00:20:52,751 --> 00:20:54,484
Is that even a position?
552
00:20:54,485 --> 00:20:56,120
It is now.
553
00:20:56,121 --> 00:20:57,553
Adam, this is money in the bank.
554
00:20:57,554 --> 00:21:00,623
You're talking about criminal extortion.
555
00:21:00,624 --> 00:21:02,825
I'm talking about saving your damn client.
556
00:21:02,826 --> 00:21:06,462
Maybe we should start
calling you Choirboy.
557
00:21:06,463 --> 00:21:07,730
Turf this over to me
558
00:21:07,731 --> 00:21:09,098
if you can't handle it.
559
00:21:09,099 --> 00:21:10,900
Let Tommy Jefferson take over.
560
00:21:10,901 --> 00:21:13,236
Oh, what's he doing now?
561
00:21:14,638 --> 00:21:16,639
Ooh...
562
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,073
HARRY: Nobody's denying
563
00:21:18,074 --> 00:21:21,510
that hysteria or conversion
disorder might be a disability,
564
00:21:21,511 --> 00:21:23,679
but the disruption caused by Natalie
565
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:24,913
simply renders the classroom...
566
00:21:24,914 --> 00:21:26,482
JUDGE: Ms. Korn, we have
laws, for God's sake.
567
00:21:26,483 --> 00:21:28,417
Throwing the child out...
568
00:21:28,418 --> 00:21:30,084
Nobody feels good about this, Judge.
569
00:21:30,085 --> 00:21:32,052
Well, so long as you feel bad about it.
570
00:21:32,053 --> 00:21:33,888
You know what, Your Honor?
571
00:21:33,889 --> 00:21:35,723
Sometimes the world gets crippled
572
00:21:35,724 --> 00:21:37,624
by all this political correctness crap.
573
00:21:37,625 --> 00:21:40,093
Hey, maybe that's how I should put it.
574
00:21:40,094 --> 00:21:41,728
The school is crippled.
575
00:21:41,729 --> 00:21:43,664
That's a nice disability
buzzword, isn't it?
576
00:21:43,665 --> 00:21:45,231
JUDGE: You're out of line, Counsel.
577
00:21:45,232 --> 00:21:47,066
Maybe so, but so is all faux-tolerant,
578
00:21:47,067 --> 00:21:48,568
special-needs whoo-ha.
579
00:21:48,569 --> 00:21:49,836
It's one thing
580
00:21:49,837 --> 00:21:51,171
to mainstream.
581
00:21:51,172 --> 00:21:53,071
It's quite another to torpedo
582
00:21:53,072 --> 00:21:54,407
everybody else in the process.
583
00:21:54,408 --> 00:21:56,742
Does common sense ever get any play...?
584
00:21:56,743 --> 00:21:58,577
Your Honor, this is a very unusual case,
585
00:21:58,578 --> 00:21:59,578
and truth be told,
586
00:21:59,579 --> 00:22:01,246
I think it's hard for us
587
00:22:01,247 --> 00:22:03,182
to fully grasp the nature of...
588
00:22:03,183 --> 00:22:04,917
I see that Natalie's mother
589
00:22:04,918 --> 00:22:06,084
is here with us today. She probably
590
00:22:06,085 --> 00:22:07,653
knows the child better than any of us.
591
00:22:07,654 --> 00:22:09,454
Maybe we should hear what she has to say.
592
00:22:13,426 --> 00:22:14,926
What the hell was that?
593
00:22:14,927 --> 00:22:17,028
You were going south fast, Harry.
594
00:22:17,029 --> 00:22:19,331
- No, I wasn't.
- Yes, you were, trust me.
595
00:22:19,332 --> 00:22:20,932
Look, for this judge to truly get
596
00:22:20,933 --> 00:22:23,167
what we're talking about,
he needs to see it. It.
597
00:22:23,168 --> 00:22:24,802
- What do you mean, "it"?
- I mean
598
00:22:24,803 --> 00:22:26,203
the eyeball rolled back into the head.
599
00:22:26,204 --> 00:22:27,538
He needs to hear the sounds.
600
00:22:27,539 --> 00:22:29,272
It happened before when
you got into it with the mother.
601
00:22:29,273 --> 00:22:30,441
Just do it again.
602
00:22:30,442 --> 00:22:31,942
That's your thinking?
603
00:22:31,943 --> 00:22:34,778
Get into it with the mother
until the kid's eyeball rolls?
604
00:22:34,779 --> 00:22:36,613
Sometimes you have to win ugly.
605
00:22:36,614 --> 00:22:39,216
- Are you out of your mind?
REMMICK: - Harry?
606
00:22:42,820 --> 00:22:44,454
Preliminary findings...
607
00:22:44,455 --> 00:22:45,955
Mrs. Bagley died from head trauma,
608
00:22:45,956 --> 00:22:47,990
blunt instrument to the back of the head.
609
00:22:47,991 --> 00:22:49,659
Would... could that happen
from the car crash?
610
00:22:49,660 --> 00:22:51,828
That's the problem.
It's conceivable it could.
611
00:22:51,829 --> 00:22:53,563
The M.E. doesn't think it's likely
612
00:22:53,564 --> 00:22:55,231
given the angle of impact and so forth.
613
00:22:55,232 --> 00:22:57,031
His call would be homicide,
614
00:22:57,032 --> 00:22:59,000
but there's no way we'd ever prove it.
615
00:22:59,001 --> 00:23:01,903
So... where does that leave us?
616
00:23:01,904 --> 00:23:03,805
That leaves you nowhere.
617
00:23:03,806 --> 00:23:05,374
There's nothing else to be done.
618
00:23:05,375 --> 00:23:07,242
Roseanna, you cannot
be satisfied with this.
619
00:23:07,243 --> 00:23:08,543
It was likely a murder.
620
00:23:08,544 --> 00:23:11,312
You just move on?
621
00:23:11,313 --> 00:23:13,814
Roseanna, it's your calling.
622
00:23:13,815 --> 00:23:15,649
Oh, enough with the calling,
would you, please?
623
00:23:15,650 --> 00:23:16,984
I've done all that I could.
624
00:23:16,985 --> 00:23:19,152
No, you didn't. Go get a warrant.
625
00:23:19,153 --> 00:23:20,921
I mean, this was a conspiracy.
626
00:23:20,922 --> 00:23:22,523
I mean, there's probably evidence
627
00:23:22,524 --> 00:23:23,991
at his house, on his phone.
628
00:23:23,992 --> 00:23:25,993
Go get a warrant.
629
00:23:27,863 --> 00:23:30,497
All right, I need something from you.
630
00:23:30,498 --> 00:23:31,598
Anything.
631
00:23:31,599 --> 00:23:33,266
I'm getting Trial Lawyer of the Year
632
00:23:33,267 --> 00:23:35,368
Friday night. It's a secret, but I know.
633
00:23:35,369 --> 00:23:36,770
You?
634
00:23:36,771 --> 00:23:38,671
That's fantastic.
635
00:23:38,672 --> 00:23:40,339
- Congratulations.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
636
00:23:40,340 --> 00:23:41,875
Wow. I'm on the committee.
I nominated myself,
637
00:23:41,876 --> 00:23:43,676
and I dared them all to disagree.
638
00:23:43,677 --> 00:23:45,844
Everybody from my office
already has tickets
639
00:23:45,845 --> 00:23:47,178
'cause they go anyway.
640
00:23:47,179 --> 00:23:49,882
I bought a table for family
and friends, but for one reason
641
00:23:49,883 --> 00:23:51,517
or another,
they've all managed to beg out.
642
00:23:51,518 --> 00:23:53,218
I can't be sitting alone
at a big empty table.
643
00:23:53,219 --> 00:23:56,087
You'll bring your office.
644
00:23:58,858 --> 00:24:00,258
What do you mean
we're sitting at her table?
645
00:24:00,259 --> 00:24:01,526
How the hell did you agree to that?
646
00:24:01,527 --> 00:24:02,693
Because I did.
647
00:24:02,694 --> 00:24:04,228
We get a favor, we give one.
648
00:24:04,229 --> 00:24:05,963
It's black-tie, so, dust off your tux.
649
00:24:05,964 --> 00:24:07,698
Preferably not the powder-blue.
650
00:24:07,699 --> 00:24:11,368
So, you might as well be my date.
651
00:24:11,369 --> 00:24:13,070
You asking me out, Ollie?
652
00:24:13,071 --> 00:24:14,906
Well, we have to go. You heard her...
653
00:24:14,907 --> 00:24:17,741
She didn't say that I
have to be your date.
654
00:24:17,742 --> 00:24:21,210
Why can't you just admit
that you find me attractive?
655
00:24:21,211 --> 00:24:22,979
Maybe I'd like to go out with you.
656
00:24:22,980 --> 00:24:24,548
Would you?
657
00:24:24,549 --> 00:24:25,449
No.
658
00:24:26,551 --> 00:24:27,751
Harry?
659
00:24:27,752 --> 00:24:29,218
Oh, don't even start with me.
660
00:24:29,219 --> 00:24:31,087
Harry, Atticus Finch in To Kill
a Mockingbird said that
661
00:24:31,088 --> 00:24:33,055
sometimes being a lawyer means
having to be an ogre.
662
00:24:33,056 --> 00:24:35,223
You confuse Atticus Finch with Shrek.
663
00:24:35,224 --> 00:24:37,259
You just need to do what you need to do.
664
00:24:37,260 --> 00:24:39,595
I cannot stand up in open court
and endeavor
665
00:24:39,596 --> 00:24:41,396
to get a child's eyeball to roll
666
00:24:41,397 --> 00:24:43,566
to the back of her skull. I can't.
667
00:24:46,002 --> 00:24:47,169
Can't or won't?
668
00:24:47,170 --> 00:24:48,337
It's criminal.
669
00:24:48,338 --> 00:24:49,771
This kind of extortion.
670
00:24:49,772 --> 00:24:51,006
Forget that I could be disbarred.
671
00:24:51,007 --> 00:24:52,240
I could be put in prison.
672
00:24:52,241 --> 00:24:54,609
So what do we do then?
673
00:24:54,610 --> 00:24:57,679
Is there anything that we can do?
674
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,081
Well, this guy is...
675
00:24:59,082 --> 00:25:00,449
he's an aggressive D.A.,
676
00:25:00,450 --> 00:25:02,684
but they don't call him
Choirboy for nothing.
677
00:25:02,685 --> 00:25:05,953
He's very active in his church,
does a lot of charitable work.
678
00:25:05,954 --> 00:25:07,754
I figure he must have a heart.
679
00:25:07,755 --> 00:25:10,958
I'm going to meet with him,
do my best to appeal to it.
680
00:25:10,959 --> 00:25:13,527
- Okay.
- If nothing else, I think I can
681
00:25:13,528 --> 00:25:16,763
at least get you put in a
facility with a drug program.
682
00:25:18,500 --> 00:25:20,501
Okay.
683
00:25:21,869 --> 00:25:23,769
Hey, look at me. We're not done yet.
684
00:25:23,770 --> 00:25:26,039
Okay?
685
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,108
We're not done yet.
686
00:25:34,851 --> 00:25:36,051
MAN (on TV):
They're now in the two-three zone
687
00:25:36,052 --> 00:25:37,720
as Anderson brings the ball
to the top of the circle,
688
00:25:37,721 --> 00:25:39,522
gives it over to Gates,
Gates swings it to the left...
689
00:25:39,523 --> 00:25:41,023
(screams)
Freeze! Cincinnati Police!
690
00:25:41,024 --> 00:25:42,725
- Let me see your hands.
- What the hell's going on here?
691
00:25:42,726 --> 00:25:44,727
- Sit down and let me see your hands.
- Who the hell are you?
692
00:25:44,728 --> 00:25:46,461
- Sit down.
OFFICER: - Check the bedroom.
693
00:25:46,462 --> 00:25:47,462
Perimeter clear.
694
00:25:47,463 --> 00:25:48,696
OFFICER: Check around back.
695
00:25:48,697 --> 00:25:49,697
Warrant.
696
00:25:49,698 --> 00:25:51,766
Oh, nice door, by the way.
697
00:25:51,767 --> 00:25:54,369
It's... Italian?
698
00:25:54,370 --> 00:25:55,604
OFFICER: Tell them to stand down outside.
699
00:25:55,605 --> 00:25:56,804
Sorry about all the to-do.
700
00:25:56,805 --> 00:25:58,940
I always wanted to work SWAT.
701
00:25:58,941 --> 00:26:01,242
You really think
you'll get away with this?
702
00:26:01,243 --> 00:26:04,044
Actually, uh... yeah, actually, I do.
703
00:26:04,045 --> 00:26:05,379
I've gotten away with worse.
704
00:26:05,380 --> 00:26:07,481
(sirens wailing)
705
00:26:09,618 --> 00:26:12,219
Evidently, the computer and
his phone were a treasure trove.
706
00:26:12,220 --> 00:26:13,887
Bagley was brought in for questioning.
707
00:26:13,888 --> 00:26:16,223
The other guy, Terrace...
he was hauled in, too.
708
00:26:16,224 --> 00:26:18,891
Get word to Zachary,
would you, there may be a break?
709
00:26:18,892 --> 00:26:20,393
I got to get to court. Set?
710
00:26:20,394 --> 00:26:22,995
Set. Did you figure out
what you're going to do?
711
00:26:22,996 --> 00:26:26,766
Well, I think I might sort of
imply that I know something,
712
00:26:26,767 --> 00:26:28,134
but never actually threaten him.
713
00:26:28,135 --> 00:26:29,969
Hmm. That could be tricky.
714
00:26:29,970 --> 00:26:32,338
I know.
715
00:26:34,641 --> 00:26:36,408
Bagley's completely lawyered up.
716
00:26:36,409 --> 00:26:37,576
And this guy?
717
00:26:37,577 --> 00:26:39,578
He's not saying anything.
718
00:26:42,014 --> 00:26:45,250
(door opens, closes)
719
00:26:45,251 --> 00:26:46,318
Well, look at you...
720
00:26:46,319 --> 00:26:48,587
the picture of defiance.
721
00:26:48,588 --> 00:26:49,787
Or is it stupidity?
722
00:26:49,788 --> 00:26:51,755
I can never keep them straight.
723
00:26:51,756 --> 00:26:53,491
Defiance and stupidity
724
00:26:53,492 --> 00:26:56,194
look the same sometimes.
725
00:26:56,195 --> 00:26:57,761
Let's see.
726
00:26:57,762 --> 00:27:01,932
You could avoid the death
penalty by cooperating,
727
00:27:01,933 --> 00:27:04,435
or you could actually
get out of prison one day
728
00:27:04,436 --> 00:27:06,603
and resume having a life
by flipping your friend.
729
00:27:06,604 --> 00:27:09,939
Yet, you say nothing.
730
00:27:09,940 --> 00:27:12,442
You're one of the stupid criminals.
731
00:27:12,443 --> 00:27:15,845
Oh, 'course we knew that, didn't we?
732
00:27:15,846 --> 00:27:17,614
It's only the stupid ones who get caught.
733
00:27:17,615 --> 00:27:20,783
And the ones who... (chuckles)
734
00:27:20,784 --> 00:27:24,786
...go down when they
actually have an out...
735
00:27:24,787 --> 00:27:26,988
they're the dumbest of all.
736
00:27:30,793 --> 00:27:32,794
Hmm.
737
00:27:35,465 --> 00:27:37,165
(door opens)
738
00:27:37,166 --> 00:27:39,166
Keep working on him. He'll break.
739
00:27:42,504 --> 00:27:45,072
The clinical name is now
conversion disorder.
740
00:27:45,073 --> 00:27:47,308
And is it neurologically based?
741
00:27:47,309 --> 00:27:49,810
No, that's the thing.
742
00:27:49,811 --> 00:27:51,178
If there's any neurological cause,
743
00:27:51,179 --> 00:27:53,748
the diagnosis would not be
conversion disorder.
744
00:27:53,749 --> 00:27:57,551
The truth is, doctors don't know
what causes it.
745
00:27:57,552 --> 00:28:00,554
Natalie's episodes seem
to be brought on by stress.
746
00:28:00,555 --> 00:28:02,422
And do these episodes occur often?
747
00:28:02,423 --> 00:28:04,090
Well, they happen from time to time,
748
00:28:04,091 --> 00:28:05,259
but they don't last long.
749
00:28:05,260 --> 00:28:06,993
Maybe 30 seconds in total.
750
00:28:06,994 --> 00:28:09,062
Which is another reason
that the school's decision
751
00:28:09,063 --> 00:28:11,231
is as Draconian as it is ridiculous.
752
00:28:11,232 --> 00:28:12,699
HARRY: Are we sure it's not
753
00:28:12,700 --> 00:28:16,035
neurological? I mean,
I saw her face contort...
754
00:28:16,036 --> 00:28:18,271
She has spasms,
both physical and laryngeal.
755
00:28:18,272 --> 00:28:19,538
They're harmless.
756
00:28:19,539 --> 00:28:21,707
Well, you have to admit,
it can be pretty terrifying
757
00:28:21,708 --> 00:28:22,608
for anyone who witnesses it.
758
00:28:22,609 --> 00:28:23,876
Well, so are seizures.
759
00:28:23,877 --> 00:28:25,210
Do we start tossing out
all the kids with epilepsy?
760
00:28:25,211 --> 00:28:28,247
Mrs. Drake, I admire the way
761
00:28:28,248 --> 00:28:29,782
you look out for your kid here,
762
00:28:29,783 --> 00:28:31,083
but what do you say
to all the other parents
763
00:28:31,084 --> 00:28:32,251
who are looking out for theirs?
764
00:28:32,252 --> 00:28:33,418
I say, get over it.
765
00:28:33,419 --> 00:28:35,887
Their kids are not being impacted.
766
00:28:35,888 --> 00:28:37,889
But if classroom decorum is being breached
767
00:28:37,890 --> 00:28:39,457
to the point where nobody can learn...
768
00:28:39,458 --> 00:28:41,593
If there's a breach,
it's a result of the bigotry.
769
00:28:41,594 --> 00:28:43,428
You seek to reward that
770
00:28:43,429 --> 00:28:44,796
by expelling my kid?
771
00:28:49,734 --> 00:28:53,036
Mrs. Drake, no offense,
772
00:28:53,037 --> 00:28:55,105
but you seem
to have a ghastly personality.
773
00:28:55,106 --> 00:28:56,740
Objection.
774
00:28:56,741 --> 00:28:58,141
I don't mean to be a jerk, but
775
00:28:58,142 --> 00:28:59,576
you're only too happy to be one.
776
00:28:59,577 --> 00:29:00,577
How dare you.
777
00:29:00,578 --> 00:29:02,212
You say that your daughter's episodes
778
00:29:02,213 --> 00:29:03,447
are brought on by stress,
779
00:29:03,448 --> 00:29:05,782
but you have no compunction
about being antagonistic
780
00:29:05,783 --> 00:29:07,817
at every turn. I'm just wondering
781
00:29:07,818 --> 00:29:09,919
how much you're contributing
to the problem.
782
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,221
Are you seriously for real?
783
00:29:12,222 --> 00:29:13,623
May I ask, how much do you
and your husband make?
784
00:29:13,624 --> 00:29:14,824
Objection.
785
00:29:14,825 --> 00:29:15,925
Counsel, what's the point?
786
00:29:15,926 --> 00:29:18,328
Well, these are people of means.
They can afford
787
00:29:18,329 --> 00:29:20,330
private schools, some of which are better
788
00:29:20,331 --> 00:29:22,131
equipped to handle this situation.
789
00:29:22,132 --> 00:29:23,665
Instead, they dump their daughter
790
00:29:23,666 --> 00:29:25,434
- in the public school system which...
- Dump?!
791
00:29:25,435 --> 00:29:28,070
- Did you say "dump"?!
- I'm just saying if it were my daughter...
792
00:29:28,071 --> 00:29:29,939
- Objection. That's badgering.
- You accuse me of not caring for my daughter...
793
00:29:29,940 --> 00:29:32,474
- Mrs. Drake. That's enough, Ms. Korn.
- ...when all I do is tend to her
794
00:29:32,475 --> 00:29:33,943
- and worry about her.
- Mrs. Drake. (gavel bangs)
795
00:29:33,944 --> 00:29:35,010
I've had her seen by
17 different specialists.
796
00:29:35,011 --> 00:29:37,145
(gavel bangs)
All right, let's all settle.
797
00:29:37,146 --> 00:29:38,279
I bet you cause half
your daughter's stress.
798
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:39,513
You don't even seem to care...
799
00:29:39,514 --> 00:29:40,815
MRS. DRAKE: I don't care?!
800
00:29:40,816 --> 00:29:43,151
- Mrs. Drake.
- I don't care?!
801
00:29:43,152 --> 00:29:45,419
(wheezing, snarling)
802
00:29:45,420 --> 00:29:47,488
MR. DRAKE: Honey, come on.
803
00:29:47,489 --> 00:29:50,658
(gallery clamoring)
804
00:29:50,659 --> 00:29:53,360
(wheezing, snarling)
805
00:29:53,361 --> 00:29:55,762
(loud wheezing and gasping)
806
00:29:55,763 --> 00:29:57,998
(loud, airy gasping)
807
00:30:03,204 --> 00:30:05,038
(wheezing, snarling)
808
00:30:06,774 --> 00:30:08,475
Was I not being clear before?
809
00:30:08,476 --> 00:30:10,276
This woman needs a break.
810
00:30:10,277 --> 00:30:12,311
If she goes into jail,
any continued treatment...
811
00:30:12,312 --> 00:30:14,113
You're wasting my time now.
812
00:30:15,782 --> 00:30:18,951
Mr. Cruickshank, you're a man of God.
813
00:30:18,952 --> 00:30:21,354
Do you not have a little
charity in your heart?
814
00:30:21,355 --> 00:30:25,556
Mr. Branch, I admire your vigor,
815
00:30:25,557 --> 00:30:27,558
but I strongly suggest,
816
00:30:27,559 --> 00:30:28,860
for your own career advancement,
817
00:30:28,861 --> 00:30:30,461
that you graduate from this riffraff
818
00:30:30,462 --> 00:30:33,865
and begin representing
a higher class of clientele.
819
00:30:39,738 --> 00:30:41,738
Could you not just
820
00:30:41,739 --> 00:30:43,874
put yourself in my client's shoes
821
00:30:43,875 --> 00:30:45,376
for one second, Mr. Cruickshank?
822
00:30:45,377 --> 00:30:47,477
Is that so hard to do?
823
00:30:47,478 --> 00:30:48,913
Imagining yourself
824
00:30:48,914 --> 00:30:52,249
say, in a pair of high-heeled shoes?
825
00:30:52,250 --> 00:30:54,484
You really can't picture it?
826
00:30:54,485 --> 00:30:56,486
No.
827
00:30:56,487 --> 00:30:58,487
Really?
828
00:30:58,488 --> 00:31:00,223
I can.
829
00:31:00,224 --> 00:31:02,725
And I have a lousy imagination.
830
00:31:02,726 --> 00:31:05,528
I can picture it just fine.
831
00:31:09,900 --> 00:31:12,735
I picture it like this.
832
00:31:12,736 --> 00:31:14,736
And like this.
833
00:31:17,673 --> 00:31:18,840
(whistles)
834
00:31:18,841 --> 00:31:20,943
And like this.
835
00:31:24,747 --> 00:31:26,415
The film is better.
836
00:31:26,416 --> 00:31:28,917
You know what?
837
00:31:28,918 --> 00:31:30,117
I've changed my mind.
838
00:31:30,118 --> 00:31:31,885
Forget suspending the sentence.
839
00:31:31,886 --> 00:31:34,188
I want the conviction set aside
840
00:31:34,189 --> 00:31:36,090
and the charges dropped altogether.
841
00:31:36,091 --> 00:31:37,858
Or others will
842
00:31:37,859 --> 00:31:40,061
picture these events, as well.
843
00:31:40,062 --> 00:31:43,464
Oh, you think you're about
to extort me, do you?
844
00:31:43,465 --> 00:31:45,465
Not at all.
845
00:31:45,466 --> 00:31:47,600
I know you'll only do the right thing.
846
00:31:47,601 --> 00:31:49,102
The right thing for justice.
847
00:31:49,103 --> 00:31:51,771
For your wife.
848
00:31:51,772 --> 00:31:53,739
Your kids.
849
00:31:55,776 --> 00:31:57,877
You've made a serious mistake.
850
00:31:57,878 --> 00:31:59,745
So have you.
851
00:31:59,746 --> 00:32:02,548
The difference is,
yours was caught on tape.
852
00:32:02,549 --> 00:32:04,884
So,
853
00:32:04,885 --> 00:32:08,053
how we gonna play this, Gerber-boy?
854
00:32:16,795 --> 00:32:18,796
(crowd chattering)
855
00:32:22,901 --> 00:32:24,902
Can you bring me a bourbon, neat?
856
00:32:24,903 --> 00:32:26,170
Yes.
857
00:32:29,741 --> 00:32:31,808
Well?
858
00:32:31,809 --> 00:32:32,842
Why are you bugging me?
859
00:32:35,179 --> 00:32:36,779
- Here you go.
- Thanks.
860
00:32:36,780 --> 00:32:38,181
- You're welcome.
- Bagley's got a lawyer.
861
00:32:38,182 --> 00:32:39,682
The other guy's not talking,
but he's wobbling.
862
00:32:39,683 --> 00:32:42,352
I'm sure he'll crack.
863
00:32:42,353 --> 00:32:44,754
I can't tell you how much
I appreciate this, Roseanna.
864
00:32:44,755 --> 00:32:47,423
Well, just make sure that
table tonight is filled.
865
00:32:47,424 --> 00:32:50,326
I can't believe your family
wiggled out on you.
866
00:32:50,327 --> 00:32:53,762
I mean, this is a major award.
867
00:32:55,532 --> 00:32:57,533
You didn't invite them, did you?
868
00:33:00,504 --> 00:33:01,603
Why?
869
00:33:04,606 --> 00:33:07,842
I don't like my family.
870
00:33:07,843 --> 00:33:09,944
Don't want to have to pretend I do.
871
00:33:09,945 --> 00:33:11,779
Worse yet,
872
00:33:11,780 --> 00:33:13,281
feel indebted to them.
873
00:33:13,282 --> 00:33:16,284
I won't pretend to like you or
the other drips at your firm.
874
00:33:16,285 --> 00:33:18,819
(scoffs)
875
00:33:20,321 --> 00:33:23,023
I always wanted to win this award.
876
00:33:23,024 --> 00:33:26,793
Not the way I wanted to
win it, but... whatever.
877
00:33:26,794 --> 00:33:29,696
Time's running out.
878
00:33:29,697 --> 00:33:31,898
I'll take it.
879
00:33:31,899 --> 00:33:33,700
Well, how meaningful can it be.
880
00:33:33,701 --> 00:33:34,968
I mean, you nominated yourself.
881
00:33:34,969 --> 00:33:37,403
You dared the committee
not to vote for you.
882
00:33:37,404 --> 00:33:39,372
I can fill in the meaningful blanks.
883
00:33:39,373 --> 00:33:40,839
I've been doing it all my life.
884
00:33:42,209 --> 00:33:43,642
You know, D.A.'s don't get
885
00:33:43,643 --> 00:33:46,079
hugs from clients.
886
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:47,646
We never hear applause.
887
00:33:48,982 --> 00:33:51,416
We learn to fill in the blanks.
888
00:33:51,417 --> 00:33:53,718
Why don't you get out of the D.A. racket?
889
00:33:53,719 --> 00:33:54,919
Come over to our side.
890
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,988
Gather a few rosebuds
891
00:33:56,989 --> 00:33:59,057
and hugs.
892
00:33:59,058 --> 00:34:01,359
Not in my DNA.
893
00:34:04,097 --> 00:34:06,864
I'll stay where I am.
894
00:34:13,004 --> 00:34:16,440
But we should cop the occasional hug.
895
00:34:16,441 --> 00:34:18,675
We should hear the applause.
896
00:34:18,676 --> 00:34:20,844
I'll hear mine tonight,
and I'll know I earned it.
897
00:34:20,845 --> 00:34:23,779
Hell with everybody else in the room.
898
00:34:23,780 --> 00:34:27,550
I'll know I earned it.
899
00:34:36,259 --> 00:34:37,926
He decided to dismiss?
900
00:34:37,927 --> 00:34:39,027
I'm free to go?
901
00:34:39,028 --> 00:34:40,629
It seems he had a sudden shift
in conscience.
902
00:34:40,630 --> 00:34:44,099
So you did it after all.
903
00:34:44,100 --> 00:34:46,467
Thank you, Adam.
904
00:34:46,468 --> 00:34:48,469
I promise I will repay you one day.
905
00:34:48,470 --> 00:34:50,538
Repay me by getting better.
906
00:34:50,539 --> 00:34:52,940
Deal.
907
00:34:56,612 --> 00:34:59,713
Hey, are you busy tonight?
908
00:34:59,714 --> 00:35:03,716
You ever been to a really,
really boring fund-raiser?
909
00:35:07,321 --> 00:35:10,390
I'm a strong advocate of mainstreaming.
910
00:35:10,391 --> 00:35:12,559
Not simply because it benefits
the child in question,
911
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:16,729
but because it pays dividends to
his or her non-disabled peers.
912
00:35:16,730 --> 00:35:20,899
But sometimes inclusion comes
at too high a cost.
913
00:35:20,900 --> 00:35:23,469
Here we have teachers frustrated,
914
00:35:23,470 --> 00:35:25,504
throwing up their hands in surrender,
915
00:35:25,505 --> 00:35:27,906
parents threatening to pull
their kid out of the school,
916
00:35:27,907 --> 00:35:31,009
not because they don't like
Natalie, they do.
917
00:35:31,010 --> 00:35:34,245
But because their kids aren't learning.
918
00:35:34,246 --> 00:35:36,347
I mean, classes are falling
behind schedule.
919
00:35:36,348 --> 00:35:39,584
I mean, you saw the
disruption yourself, Your Honor.
920
00:35:39,585 --> 00:35:42,019
And this is not something
that just passes.
921
00:35:42,020 --> 00:35:44,822
It rattles anybody who witnesses it.
922
00:35:46,592 --> 00:35:49,627
I begged you for a little
common sense at the top,
923
00:35:49,628 --> 00:35:52,096
and I'll do it again now.
924
00:35:52,097 --> 00:35:55,599
Our public school system stinks.
925
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,367
Of all the industrialized countries,
926
00:35:57,368 --> 00:35:58,869
we're at the bottom of the heap,
927
00:35:58,870 --> 00:36:00,037
and you want to add
928
00:36:00,038 --> 00:36:01,772
to the teachers' burdens
929
00:36:01,773 --> 00:36:04,709
in an already overcrowded classroom by...
930
00:36:04,710 --> 00:36:07,543
what are we doing?
931
00:36:07,544 --> 00:36:09,179
So you just throw her out
932
00:36:09,180 --> 00:36:11,380
because the other kids don't
like to look at her?
933
00:36:11,381 --> 00:36:12,716
They get rattled?
934
00:36:12,717 --> 00:36:14,818
The teachers find her to be a distraction,
935
00:36:14,819 --> 00:36:16,853
so broom her.
936
00:36:16,854 --> 00:36:18,855
Natalie's a good student.
937
00:36:18,856 --> 00:36:20,556
She contributes positively
to the classroom.
938
00:36:20,557 --> 00:36:23,391
She's popular, but because she has
939
00:36:23,392 --> 00:36:24,893
and occasional spasm...
940
00:36:26,029 --> 00:36:27,730
School is about more
941
00:36:27,731 --> 00:36:30,899
than math or reading or science.
942
00:36:30,900 --> 00:36:32,567
It's about preparing
943
00:36:32,568 --> 00:36:34,636
our young people to be good citizens.
944
00:36:34,637 --> 00:36:38,305
Expelling the less-able child because it's
945
00:36:38,306 --> 00:36:40,341
icky to look at her,
946
00:36:40,342 --> 00:36:43,410
now is that the citizenry we want really?
947
00:36:43,411 --> 00:36:46,647
No, Counsel, it's not.
948
00:36:46,648 --> 00:36:49,817
But the school system is a system.
949
00:36:49,818 --> 00:36:51,085
One primarily
950
00:36:51,086 --> 00:36:53,554
designed to serve the masses,
951
00:36:53,555 --> 00:36:55,922
and in weighing the needs of this child
952
00:36:55,923 --> 00:36:57,657
versus those of the others,
953
00:36:57,658 --> 00:36:59,325
I have to take
954
00:36:59,326 --> 00:37:01,594
the teachers at their word here.
955
00:37:01,595 --> 00:37:03,496
Their abilities are being compromised.
956
00:37:03,497 --> 00:37:06,399
Many of them are getting hurt.
957
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:10,369
Now, I, too, am in favor of inclusion
958
00:37:10,370 --> 00:37:12,537
very much,
959
00:37:12,538 --> 00:37:14,840
but in some cases,
960
00:37:14,841 --> 00:37:16,876
it simply doesn't work,
961
00:37:16,877 --> 00:37:19,511
and I'm afraid
962
00:37:19,512 --> 00:37:21,280
that this is such a case.
963
00:37:21,281 --> 00:37:22,381
Mr. and Mrs. Drake,
964
00:37:22,382 --> 00:37:24,116
Natalie,
965
00:37:24,117 --> 00:37:26,384
I am deeply sorry,
966
00:37:26,385 --> 00:37:29,854
but I am regrettably ruling
in favor of the school.
967
00:37:29,855 --> 00:37:31,856
(gavel bangs) We're adjourned.
968
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,195
(door opens)
969
00:37:37,196 --> 00:37:39,430
(door closes)
970
00:37:46,820 --> 00:37:48,621
First your hack department
doesn't even investigate this...
971
00:37:48,622 --> 00:37:50,623
it almost slips by you... then,
972
00:37:50,624 --> 00:37:52,625
after I feed you two suspects,
973
00:37:52,626 --> 00:37:54,560
you can't get either of them to talk.
974
00:37:56,129 --> 00:37:57,463
Okay.
975
00:37:57,464 --> 00:37:59,231
Just stand behind me and look satisfied,
976
00:37:59,232 --> 00:38:00,565
like you've actually
accomplished something,
977
00:38:00,566 --> 00:38:02,034
which, of course, you did not.
978
00:38:03,403 --> 00:38:05,570
Worthless.
979
00:38:05,571 --> 00:38:08,173
Well, well, well, well, well.
980
00:38:08,174 --> 00:38:10,575
I can certainly understand
your not wanting to talk now.
981
00:38:10,576 --> 00:38:12,810
It seems the whole thing was your idea.
982
00:38:12,811 --> 00:38:15,746
Here I am, thinking that
Alan Bagley convinced you,
983
00:38:15,747 --> 00:38:17,248
when you convinced him, silly me.
984
00:38:17,249 --> 00:38:19,017
Anyway, it all makes sense in the end,
985
00:38:19,018 --> 00:38:20,518
so long as I got one of you to talk.
986
00:38:22,854 --> 00:38:24,155
So, happy life to you,
987
00:38:24,156 --> 00:38:26,257
Mr. Terrace, whatever's left of it.
988
00:38:28,659 --> 00:38:31,361
I'm really sorry that you
weren't able to help yourself,
989
00:38:31,362 --> 00:38:32,929
but I'll live.
990
00:38:32,930 --> 00:38:34,564
You won't, but I will.
991
00:38:37,201 --> 00:38:38,601
Wait!
992
00:38:38,602 --> 00:38:40,270
He's saying it was my idea?
993
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:44,040
Is that what he's saying?
994
00:38:46,510 --> 00:38:48,010
Both Bagley and Terrace are already
995
00:38:48,011 --> 00:38:49,278
in custody for questioning.
996
00:38:49,279 --> 00:38:51,180
They will both be arraigned
tomorrow on charges
997
00:38:51,181 --> 00:38:53,215
of first degree murder
998
00:38:53,216 --> 00:38:54,850
and conspiracy to commit murder.
999
00:38:54,851 --> 00:38:57,019
- Felony theft by false pretenses...
- Hey.
1000
00:38:57,020 --> 00:38:58,587
(exhales)
1001
00:38:58,588 --> 00:39:00,055
For real?
1002
00:39:00,056 --> 00:39:01,523
For real.
1003
00:39:01,524 --> 00:39:02,857
The other driver confessed.
1004
00:39:02,858 --> 00:39:04,559
Bagley's going down.
1005
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:06,961
It all started with you, Zach.
1006
00:39:06,962 --> 00:39:08,930
I can't... I knew he did it,
1007
00:39:08,931 --> 00:39:10,932
but I still can't believe it, you know?
1008
00:39:12,368 --> 00:39:14,536
So, this means I'm not crazy, right?
1009
00:39:14,537 --> 00:39:17,204
Well, you still got a few issues,
1010
00:39:17,205 --> 00:39:21,041
but at least we put
this obsession to bed, right?
1011
00:39:21,042 --> 00:39:23,377
With any luck, you'll be out of here soon.
1012
00:39:23,378 --> 00:39:24,911
Thank you, Harry.
1013
00:39:24,912 --> 00:39:27,381
I couldn't get anyone to believe me.
1014
00:39:27,382 --> 00:39:29,616
Well, they do now.
1015
00:39:29,617 --> 00:39:31,417
You just get well.
1016
00:39:31,418 --> 00:39:32,485
Okay?
1017
00:39:32,486 --> 00:39:34,387
I will.
1018
00:39:34,388 --> 00:39:38,224
And my sister, maybe she can
finally rest in peace, you know?
1019
00:39:38,225 --> 00:39:41,227
Maybe now.
1020
00:39:46,933 --> 00:39:50,335
(sighs)
I really feel like Eliza Doolittle now.
1021
00:39:50,336 --> 00:39:52,337
- Cheers.
- Yeah.
1022
00:39:53,606 --> 00:39:54,739
Adam.
1023
00:39:54,740 --> 00:39:56,074
Maggie, I believe?
1024
00:39:56,075 --> 00:39:59,010
Good to see you both.
1025
00:40:02,348 --> 00:40:04,148
This is my wife, Julie.
1026
00:40:04,149 --> 00:40:05,282
Adam Branch,
1027
00:40:05,283 --> 00:40:06,350
Maggie Buchanan.
1028
00:40:06,351 --> 00:40:07,784
- Nice to meet you.
- Hi.
1029
00:40:07,785 --> 00:40:09,820
Hi.
1030
00:40:14,259 --> 00:40:16,960
Well, uh, we should...
1031
00:40:16,961 --> 00:40:18,429
uh...
1032
00:40:18,430 --> 00:40:20,029
be getting back.
1033
00:40:20,030 --> 00:40:21,931
Yes.
1034
00:40:21,932 --> 00:40:24,000
Nice to meet you.
1035
00:40:30,274 --> 00:40:33,042
I have to say, Roseanna, I'm impressed.
1036
00:40:33,043 --> 00:40:34,544
You made pretty quick work of it.
1037
00:40:34,545 --> 00:40:36,945
Mmm, I have a memento for you.
1038
00:40:36,946 --> 00:40:39,814
A piece of Alan Bagley's front door.
1039
00:40:39,815 --> 00:40:41,883
Thought you might want to
stick it on your mantelpiece
1040
00:40:41,884 --> 00:40:43,285
or your desk.
1041
00:40:43,286 --> 00:40:45,387
Or you might find
someplace else to stick it.
1042
00:40:45,388 --> 00:40:47,656
Why can't you just admit we're friends?
1043
00:40:47,657 --> 00:40:49,391
Please.
1044
00:40:49,392 --> 00:40:51,392
Tommy, aren't you gonna eat?
1045
00:40:51,393 --> 00:40:53,994
Can't eat, too nervous.
1046
00:40:53,995 --> 00:40:56,063
Maybe you should just tell him.
1047
00:40:56,064 --> 00:40:57,198
It seems kind of cruel.
1048
00:40:57,199 --> 00:40:58,332
HARRY: Well, actually, we're not sure
1049
00:40:58,333 --> 00:40:59,667
Roseanna is winning.
1050
00:40:59,668 --> 00:41:01,135
Maybe she just thinks she is.
1051
00:41:01,136 --> 00:41:02,637
Maybe we could at least warn him.
1052
00:41:02,638 --> 00:41:04,905
ANNOUNCER: Okay, we've come to that point
1053
00:41:04,906 --> 00:41:06,474
in the evening where we name
1054
00:41:06,475 --> 00:41:08,975
our Cincinnati Trial Lawyer of the Year.
1055
00:41:08,976 --> 00:41:10,343
This is it. This is it.
1056
00:41:10,344 --> 00:41:12,145
Okay, take a deep breath;
you're all right.
1057
00:41:13,314 --> 00:41:14,981
Now, don't forget to look surprised.
1058
00:41:14,982 --> 00:41:16,916
I'm still shocked, actually.
1059
00:41:16,917 --> 00:41:18,517
ANNOUNCER:
We had a record number of submissions
1060
00:41:18,518 --> 00:41:19,819
this year, and some truly
1061
00:41:19,820 --> 00:41:21,487
noble candidates.
1062
00:41:21,488 --> 00:41:22,822
Damn, did he say noble?
1063
00:41:22,823 --> 00:41:24,490
- Shh.
ANNOUNCER: - And the committee felt that
1064
00:41:24,491 --> 00:41:26,059
they could give this prize to any number
1065
00:41:26,060 --> 00:41:27,160
of excellent attorneys,
1066
00:41:27,161 --> 00:41:28,561
but they had to pick one,
1067
00:41:28,562 --> 00:41:29,929
and pick one they did.
1068
00:41:29,930 --> 00:41:31,730
It gives me great pleasure
1069
00:41:31,731 --> 00:41:33,498
to announce that winner now.
1070
00:41:33,499 --> 00:41:35,533
Ladies and gentlemen,
1071
00:41:35,534 --> 00:41:37,002
for outstanding pursuit of justice,
1072
00:41:37,003 --> 00:41:40,605
and distinguished service
to the HCL Association,
1073
00:41:40,606 --> 00:41:43,508
we proudly present
the Hamilton County Litigator
1074
00:41:43,509 --> 00:41:44,743
of the Year award to...
1075
00:41:46,179 --> 00:41:47,678
...Roseanna Remmick.
1076
00:41:47,679 --> 00:41:49,513
(applause)
1077
00:41:49,514 --> 00:41:50,581
Wow!
1078
00:41:50,582 --> 00:41:52,116
- What?
- You're kidding.
1079
00:42:19,642 --> 00:42:21,643
(applause continues)
1080
00:42:22,768 --> 00:42:32,768
