2
00:00:16,030 --> 00:00:18,830
ooh! oh, i'm terribly sorry.
i didn't see you there.
3
00:00:20,166 --> 00:00:20,799
how may i help you?
4
00:00:20,809 --> 00:00:22,801
uh, i'm looking for, uh, carl sack.
5
00:00:23,404 --> 00:00:25,437
i'm carl sack. you're carl sack?
6
00:00:26,140 --> 00:00:27,707
at your service. full service.
7
00:00:27,717 --> 00:00:30,109
um, i've seen photographs
of mr. sack and...
8
00:00:30,346 --> 00:00:32,712
i look shorter in
person, and fatter and...
9
00:00:33,982 --> 00:00:35,548
hello, denny. i'm carl sack.
10
00:00:35,558 --> 00:00:37,951
he's got the mad cow. it makes him
think he's carl... i'm jenny pratt.
11
00:00:38,087 --> 00:00:39,987
yes. um, let's go to my office.
12
00:00:40,888 --> 00:00:41,054
okay.
13
00:00:49,732 --> 00:00:51,499
there were a dozen eyewitnesses,
14
00:00:51,509 --> 00:00:53,501
and they all tell the same story.
15
00:00:53,505 --> 00:00:56,438
dwayne willis was brought
in a little before 9:00 p.m.
16
00:00:56,448 --> 00:00:58,707
they strapped him down on the table
17
00:00:59,244 --> 00:01:01,977
and hooked up the two
i.v.s, one in each arm.
18
00:01:02,180 --> 00:01:04,180
the first drug is supposed to render
19
00:01:04,815 --> 00:01:05,815
the condemned man unconscious.
20
00:01:06,983 --> 00:01:07,316
it didn't.
21
00:01:08,485 --> 00:01:09,285
it was now 10 past 9:00.
22
00:01:10,723 --> 00:01:13,656
the drugs had been going into
him for nearly ten minutes.
23
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,126
that's when officer holt started ge
24
00:01:17,628 --> 00:01:18,228
more time goes by.
25
00:01:18,965 --> 00:01:21,698
willis has been hooked up to
the drip for 20 minutes now.
26
00:01:23,134 --> 00:01:23,834
he's still conscious.
27
00:01:23,844 --> 00:01:26,003
an argument breaks out.
28
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,973
the tech wants to pull the
i.v.s out and try again.
29
00:01:35,482 --> 00:01:38,016
another guard says no,
just increase the dosage.
30
00:01:38,026 --> 00:01:41,587
then willis starts thrashing around.
31
00:01:42,388 --> 00:01:43,088
his chest is heaving.
32
00:01:43,157 --> 00:01:45,657
he is gasping, choking. it's horrifying.
33
00:01:45,667 --> 00:01:48,160
and holt says, "do something"...
34
00:01:48,664 --> 00:01:51,230
but nobody knows what to do.
35
00:01:51,300 --> 00:01:53,966
willis has been hooked
up for a half-hour now.
36
00:01:54,935 --> 00:01:55,802
he's not even unconscious.
37
00:01:56,972 --> 00:01:58,905
he's gagging and thrashing,
38
00:01:59,375 --> 00:02:01,641
and that's when holt just snapped.
39
00:02:03,778 --> 00:02:04,478
i don't know!
40
00:02:06,049 --> 00:02:08,282
he fired one round into willis' head.
41
00:02:12,521 --> 00:02:13,254
willis died instantly.
42
00:02:14,423 --> 00:02:15,389
he's charged with murder two,
43
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,360
but the d.a. is willing to
knock it down to manslaughter,
44
00:02:18,596 --> 00:02:20,996
only holt won't take
the deal. ms. pratt...
45
00:02:21,198 --> 00:02:23,765
jenny. there mu be
many lawyers in virginia
46
00:02:23,775 --> 00:02:26,735
who could do this. yeah, i need an
advocate who can speak forcefully
47
00:02:26,745 --> 00:02:28,804
against the death penalty itself.
48
00:02:28,814 --> 00:02:31,607
jenny, whatever one's feelings
are on the death penalty...
49
00:02:32,143 --> 00:02:34,276
for it. it's moot here.
50
00:02:34,780 --> 00:02:37,246
your client... carried
out a death sentence,
51
00:02:38,215 --> 00:02:39,049
albe in a unique fashion.
52
00:02:39,351 --> 00:02:41,651
but the legal issue is also unique.
53
00:02:42,820 --> 00:02:43,720
i mean, is it even possible
54
00:02:43,730 --> 00:02:46,356
to murder a man who's being executed?
double homicide. happens all the time.
55
00:02:46,993 --> 00:02:49,660
a double homicide is when
two people are killed, denny.
56
00:02:50,762 --> 00:02:51,362
what's your point?
57
00:02:52,297 --> 00:02:53,163
listen, jenny, i'm not s...
58
00:02:54,500 --> 00:02:55,800
carl, virginia is a swing state,
59
00:02:55,810 --> 00:02:57,835
and i've always wanted to swing. denny.
60
00:02:58,072 --> 00:03:00,972
carl, we need to bond. hell,
man, this is our last season.
61
00:03:00,982 --> 00:03:02,941
if there's one thing
i've learned in life,
62
00:03:05,144 --> 00:03:07,478
it's never, ever say no to a road trip.
63
00:03:10,484 --> 00:03:25,819
Boston Legal S05E09 -Kill, Baby, Kill
64
00:04:02,382 --> 00:04:04,874
i just couldn't watch
him suffer anymore.
65
00:04:05,511 --> 00:04:08,411
if i had to do it over
again, i'd do the same thing.
66
00:04:08,421 --> 00:04:10,981
you only fired the one shot? yes.
67
00:04:11,117 --> 00:04:13,017
we could go with defense of others,
68
00:04:13,919 --> 00:04:14,985
but since you went into the room
69
00:04:14,995 --> 00:04:17,687
to participate in executing
the man, i don't think that...
70
00:04:18,924 --> 00:04:20,191
i didn't go in to torture him.
71
00:04:21,460 --> 00:04:22,160
mm. another approach,
72
00:04:22,429 --> 00:04:24,829
uh, would be a version
of diminished capacity.
73
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,599
you were overcome with
compassion... in virginia?
74
00:04:28,703 --> 00:04:30,969
moreover, your years
of witnessing executions
75
00:04:32,138 --> 00:04:33,171
could have taken a mental toll.
76
00:04:34,974 --> 00:04:35,674
i'm not arguing that.
77
00:04:37,645 --> 00:04:39,679
um, how about... simple
temporary insanity?
78
00:04:39,913 --> 00:04:42,380
you saw a man suffering.
you snapped. you w...
79
00:04:42,390 --> 00:04:45,317
on lnoeg, ali knew exactly
what i did while i was doing it.
80
00:04:48,021 --> 00:04:48,554
i'd do it again.
81
00:04:50,258 --> 00:04:52,025
we don't have a lot to go with here.
82
00:04:54,362 --> 00:04:55,195
i won't say i was insane.
83
00:05:13,144 --> 00:05:14,644
you want us to just cut him loose?
84
00:05:14,654 --> 00:05:16,646
you make it sound as if
he's strung up somewhere.
85
00:05:16,656 --> 00:05:19,416
let's not get ahead of ourselves.
mr. sack, uh, you're a stranger here.
86
00:05:19,426 --> 00:05:21,618
I knew it. they plan to
play the stranger card.
87
00:05:21,988 --> 00:05:24,221
aren't we all brothers, my friend?
88
00:05:26,024 --> 00:05:27,024
this is a very serious matter.
89
00:05:28,159 --> 00:05:28,526
yes, it is.
90
00:05:29,230 --> 00:05:32,163
so i thought perhaps we
could be serious for a second.
91
00:05:32,166 --> 00:05:35,133
you don't mean to tell a
jury of your fellow virginians
92
00:05:36,702 --> 00:05:37,135
that shooting
93
00:05:37,705 --> 00:05:40,138
the commonwealth was in
the process of killing
94
00:05:40,475 --> 00:05:43,275
was murder or manslaughter
or in fact any crime at all?
95
00:05:43,285 --> 00:05:45,778
it was a crime, according
to the law. understood,
96
00:05:46,314 --> 00:05:49,081
but a d.a. has discretion
whether to charge, do they not?
97
00:05:49,091 --> 00:05:50,849
good ones do. well, he looks good.
98
00:05:50,985 --> 00:05:53,085
he looks great. best i've seen.
99
00:05:53,095 --> 00:05:56,355
me, too. look... i am not
dismissing the charges.
100
00:05:56,365 --> 00:05:59,192
he is going on trial for murder.
you're not my brother anymore,
101
00:05:59,763 --> 00:06:02,796
which i believe leaves me free
to have sex with your sister.
102
00:06:08,371 --> 00:06:10,371
we try to make our cases fun.
103
00:06:13,077 --> 00:06:15,677
i can't thank you enough
for seeing me, alan.
104
00:06:18,546 --> 00:06:18,780
please.
105
00:06:19,514 --> 00:06:20,281
so i hear you've become
106
00:06:20,617 --> 00:06:22,384
quite the busy man these days, huh?
107
00:06:23,185 --> 00:06:24,252
big lawyer.
108
00:06:25,488 --> 00:06:26,188
a celebrity of sorts?
109
00:06:26,791 --> 00:06:29,291
oh, well, no. well, you look great.
110
00:06:29,301 --> 00:06:32,762
thank you. yeah. you know, i always
figured you to age fat and bald.
111
00:06:33,997 --> 00:06:34,797
well, i was lucky enough
112
00:06:35,133 --> 00:06:37,566
to stave off the evil that so ages men.
113
00:06:38,802 --> 00:06:39,102
which is?
114
00:06:41,238 --> 00:06:41,538
marriage.
115
00:06:43,740 --> 00:06:44,207
what's up, mar
116
00:06:45,611 --> 00:06:47,778
well, unfortunately, i
was fired from my job.
117
00:06:48,081 --> 00:06:50,514
aw. yeah. a very good job, i might add.
118
00:06:50,524 --> 00:06:52,916
i was district sales manager
for a software company,
119
00:06:53,119 --> 00:06:55,052
in line to become
regional sales manager.
120
00:06:55,655 --> 00:06:57,722
now i know that this
may be hard to prove,
121
00:06:57,825 --> 00:07:00,459
but i think i got fired
because i voted for john mccain.
122
00:07:01,095 --> 00:07:04,162
my boss and i, we got into this
big fight over the election.
123
00:07:04,732 --> 00:07:07,099
and as soon as i told
him who i voted for,
124
00:07:09,370 --> 00:07:11,770
he just got this look of
disgust on his face, as...
125
00:07:11,780 --> 00:07:13,838
not entirely dissimilar to
the expression on your face
126
00:07:15,107 --> 00:07:15,574
at the moment.
127
00:07:16,744 --> 00:07:18,144
but anyway, uh, so he fired
128
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,914
did he, uh, give you a reason?
129
00:07:21,116 --> 00:07:23,650
no. no, they don't have
to give a reason anymore.
130
00:07:23,785 --> 00:07:25,819
they're advised by their
labor lawyers not to.
131
00:07:26,087 --> 00:07:28,154
but i know it was because
i voted for mccain.
132
00:07:30,993 --> 00:07:32,493
i can feel it in my bones, alan.
133
00:07:32,503 --> 00:07:34,461
and the prisoner started
gasping for breath
134
00:07:34,664 --> 00:07:36,330
and moving around on the table.
135
00:07:36,399 --> 00:07:38,265
is that uncommon? it's happened before.
136
00:07:38,275 --> 00:07:40,501
no two lethal injections ever seem to go
137
00:07:41,770 --> 00:07:42,470
exactly the same way.
138
00:07:42,672 --> 00:07:44,539
there was a lot of
screaming and yelling.
139
00:07:44,741 --> 00:07:47,108
officer holt became very... upset.
140
00:07:48,111 --> 00:07:49,811
then he suddenly pulled out his gun
141
00:07:51,848 --> 00:07:52,248
in the head.
142
00:07:52,258 --> 00:07:55,017
are you familiar with the
case emmett v. johnson?
143
00:07:56,486 --> 00:07:57,053
i've heard of it.
144
00:07:57,063 --> 00:07:59,688
something like lethal
injection is cruel and barbaric.
145
00:08:00,724 --> 00:08:01,224
something like.
146
00:08:01,234 --> 00:08:03,193
according to briefs filed in that case,
147
00:08:03,203 --> 00:08:05,195
virginia's method in particular
carries a greater risk
148
00:08:06,165 --> 00:08:08,698
of inflicting pain than
the method used in kentucky,
149
00:08:08,708 --> 00:08:11,936
which the supreme court approved. our
methods are substantially the same.
150
00:08:11,946 --> 00:08:14,872
the briefing includes evidence
that members of the death team,
151
00:08:16,007 --> 00:08:16,841
including, i assume, you,
152
00:08:16,851 --> 00:08:18,676
don't understand how the ugs work,
153
00:08:18,678 --> 00:08:20,811
don't know how to
properly administer an i.v.
154
00:08:20,821 --> 00:08:22,780
and don't know how to
correctly observe the inmate
155
00:08:23,448 --> 00:08:24,115
during the execution
156
00:08:24,985 --> 00:08:27,385
to determine if anything is going wrong.
157
00:08:27,395 --> 00:08:29,587
that's... that's an
argument in a lawsuit.
158
00:08:29,597 --> 00:08:31,456
there's another argument
on the other side.
159
00:08:31,466 --> 00:08:31,789
why don't you read that? oh, i'm
160
00:08:33,426 --> 00:08:33,826
re there is.
161
00:08:34,329 --> 00:08:36,629
are you aware that a
prominent medical society
162
00:08:36,639 --> 00:08:37,929
has found virginia's method of
execution unacceptable?bost on
163
00:08:39,167 --> 00:08:41,867
i know doctors have an
issue with the death penalty
164
00:08:41,877 --> 00:08:42,200
in general, so it wouldn
165
00:08:44,437 --> 00:08:44,804
surprise me
166
00:08:44,814 --> 00:08:47,040
if some physicians' group said that.
167
00:08:48,275 --> 00:08:48,808
neither would i,
168
00:08:49,211 --> 00:08:51,345
except the group i'm
referring to happens to be
169
00:08:51,355 --> 00:08:52,946
the american veterinary
medical association.
170
00:08:54,350 --> 00:08:56,850
some vets have banned your
lethal injection protocol
171
00:08:56,860 --> 00:08:58,819
because the method
virginia uses on humans
172
00:08:58,829 --> 00:09:02,190
is considered too barbaric to be
used on cats and dogs. objection.
173
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,593
the a.v.m.a. has said that
their report was misinterpreted.
174
00:09:06,428 --> 00:09:07,028
sustained.
175
00:09:07,730 --> 00:09:09,230
mr. sack, this case is not about
176
00:09:09,599 --> 00:09:11,433
the legitimacy of the death penalty.
177
00:09:11,443 --> 00:09:13,401
and if that's where you're coming from,
178
00:09:13,537 --> 00:09:15,337
you can tuck in your little tail
179
00:09:15,706 --> 00:09:17,606
and head on back to massachusetts.
180
00:09:17,942 --> 00:09:20,409
your honor, i'm very
proud of my home state...
181
00:09:20,411 --> 00:09:22,411
home of the red sox, the patriots, mitt.
182
00:09:22,421 --> 00:09:25,615
we take our laws here in virginia very
seriously, si do you take this case seriously?
183
00:09:25,751 --> 00:09:28,384
show of hands. because,
you know, it is a bit silly.
184
00:09:28,394 --> 00:09:31,321
objection. there's a man on trial
here for trying to kill somebody
185
00:09:32,324 --> 00:09:33,324
the state was already killing.
186
00:09:33,334 --> 00:09:35,692
if anything, my client
accomplishedhe death penalty.
187
00:09:35,702 --> 00:09:38,663
mr. sack... the legitimacy of which
i certainly would never question,
188
00:09:38,673 --> 00:09:40,631
particularly in virginia. your honor!
189
00:09:40,641 --> 00:09:43,534
mr. sack... oh, how about
torture? are we for that?
190
00:09:43,544 --> 00:09:45,904
i'm warning you. because
this man was being tortur
191
00:09:45,914 --> 00:09:47,805
that's why my client pulled the
trigger... objection, your honor!
192
00:09:47,815 --> 00:09:49,474
order. order! order! objection!
193
00:09:49,484 --> 00:09:51,676
to spare horrendous suffering!
194
00:09:51,978 --> 00:09:54,378
get control of the
room, will you, judge?
195
00:09:56,715 --> 00:09:56,982
bailiff.
196
00:10:14,749 --> 00:10:15,616
blank. what's his problem?
197
00:10:16,218 --> 00:10:18,918
how'd you even get the
gun in the courtroom?
198
00:10:19,987 --> 00:10:20,354
oh, please.
199
00:10:20,756 --> 00:10:22,389
denny... what are you doing?
200
00:10:24,391 --> 00:10:24,891
will you relax?
201
00:10:25,295 --> 00:10:26,861
like i said, firstly, it was blank,
202
00:10:27,562 --> 00:10:28,529
secondly... this is virginia.
203
00:10:29,333 --> 00:10:31,266
my approval rating went up in that room.
204
00:10:32,335 --> 00:10:33,235
i'm a hero to those people.
205
00:10:33,671 --> 00:10:36,671
i couldn't be more popular if
i got kids to smoke cigarettes.
206
00:10:37,707 --> 00:10:38,740
carl, don't leave me here.
207
00:10:40,777 --> 00:10:41,643
i can't swing in here. mm.
208
00:10:45,148 --> 00:10:45,815
alan's way more fun.
209
00:10:50,357 --> 00:10:54,491
i appreciate you making the
time to see me. oh, sure.
210
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,460
well, actually, my lawyer
told me not to see you,
211
00:10:57,696 --> 00:10:59,463
but i never listen to him anyway.
212
00:10:59,473 --> 00:11:01,732
no, you certainly didn't
bother to consult with him
213
00:11:02,566 --> 00:11:03,266
before firing martha.
214
00:11:04,803 --> 00:11:05,103
nice try.
215
00:11:05,113 --> 00:11:07,104
why did you fire her, mr. feldcamp?
216
00:11:08,140 --> 00:11:09,374
it wasn't working out.
217
00:11:10,742 --> 00:11:10,975
how so?
218
00:11:11,044 --> 00:11:12,977
oh, hard to say. you
know, as an employer,
219
00:11:13,980 --> 00:11:15,914
you sometimes get a
feel for an employee,
220
00:11:15,924 --> 00:11:17,449
and with martha... hard worker,
221
00:11:17,459 --> 00:11:19,919
but she was never gonna
make the next step,
222
00:11:19,929 --> 00:11:22,855
and in this company, you
either move up or you move out.
223
00:11:22,865 --> 00:11:25,324
martha's of the impression
that you fired her
224
00:11:26,027 --> 00:11:28,527
because she voted for john
mccain in the election.
225
00:11:29,964 --> 00:11:32,398
she's mistaken. look, i
voted for mccain, all right?
226
00:11:33,702 --> 00:11:35,235
martha simply wasn't working out.
227
00:11:36,504 --> 00:11:37,237
there must be a reason
228
00:11:38,707 --> 00:11:40,840
you didn't think she was working out.
229
00:11:42,546 --> 00:11:45,646
if i have to depose you to
force an answer, i can do so,
230
00:11:45,656 --> 00:11:47,582
but you seem to be
borathsteron f loregthalcoming.
231
00:11:51,654 --> 00:11:53,554
why not just tell me now? okay.
232
00:11:55,090 --> 00:11:55,524
she's stupid.
233
00:11:55,926 --> 00:11:58,260
and as for evidence of her stupidity?
234
00:11:59,696 --> 00:12:00,596
oh, god, i could cite many.
235
00:12:02,065 --> 00:12:03,399
cite one. she voted for mccain.
236
00:12:04,501 --> 00:12:06,101
you said you voted for him.
237
00:12:06,903 --> 00:12:07,570
mm-hmm. yeah, i did.
238
00:12:07,580 --> 00:12:10,573
i voted for him because i like
his policies on nuclear energy,
239
00:12:11,275 --> 00:12:12,208
because i believed he'd make
240
00:12:12,444 --> 00:12:14,977
a better commander in
chief in times of war,
241
00:12:15,246 --> 00:12:16,946
because i trusted his experience.
242
00:12:18,048 --> 00:12:18,948
but martha voted for mccain
243
00:12:19,351 --> 00:12:21,118
because she found sarah palinspunky.
244
00:12:21,254 --> 00:12:24,087
so you admit you fired her
because of who she voted for.
245
00:12:25,224 --> 00:12:26,957
no, i fired her because she isstupid.
246
00:12:27,494 --> 00:12:29,794
look, i got abadfeeling
about her, you know?
247
00:12:29,804 --> 00:12:33,164
it's plain and simple. i'm starting
to get a bad feeling about you.
248
00:12:33,174 --> 00:12:36,034
well, then it's lucky for
me that you're not my boss.
249
00:12:37,403 --> 00:12:38,270
look, are we done?
250
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,238
no, i'm afraid we're not done.
251
00:12:41,508 --> 00:12:43,675
rather, it seems we're just beginning.
252
00:12:44,144 --> 00:12:46,144
look, mr. shore, i fire
people all the time,
253
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:48,714
and some of them go on to sue me.
254
00:12:49,382 --> 00:12:50,782
this is an at-will employment here.
255
00:12:51,885 --> 00:12:52,318
it's my will.
256
00:12:53,822 --> 00:12:55,588
so if you want to file a lawsui
257
00:12:56,192 --> 00:12:58,592
oh, i'm not a member of
any club, i assure you.
258
00:12:58,602 --> 00:13:00,527
i tend to stick out. i don't mind.
259
00:13:01,596 --> 00:13:02,496
it makes me more memorable.
260
00:13:02,932 --> 00:13:05,065
you'll rember me, mr. feldcamp.
261
00:13:05,368 --> 00:13:08,034
mm. yeah, don't let the
door hit yoon the way out.
262
00:13:08,036 --> 00:13:08,436
boston legal
263
00:13:14,478 --> 00:13:17,212
first is sodium thiopental,
which is a barbiturate.
264
00:13:18,514 --> 00:13:19,547
next comes pancuronium bromide,
265
00:13:19,983 --> 00:13:22,083
a muscle relaxant that
paralyzes the diaphragm
266
00:13:22,818 --> 00:13:23,651
and thus stops breathing.
267
00:13:23,654 --> 00:13:25,654
then potasum chloride is injected,
268
00:13:25,664 --> 00:13:29,024
and that stops the heart. but
that's not what happened here.
269
00:13:29,394 --> 00:13:31,294
not exactly. what did happen?
270
00:13:31,304 --> 00:13:33,996
well, the technician who
started the i.v. on the prisoner
271
00:13:34,299 --> 00:13:36,932
missed the vein in one
arm, and in the other arm,
272
00:13:36,942 --> 00:13:38,902
he stuck the needle
through the prisoner's vein
273
00:13:38,912 --> 00:13:41,972
and into his muscle tissue. do you
know of other botched executions
274
00:13:41,982 --> 00:13:46,276
using the lethal injection method?
there have been too many to list.
275
00:13:46,613 --> 00:13:49,380
this is something that
should be done by doctors,
276
00:13:49,390 --> 00:13:51,882
but doctors refuse to do it on ethical
grounds. but, i mean, to be fair,
277
00:13:51,985 --> 00:13:54,218
in most instances where
lethal injection is used,
278
00:13:54,228 --> 00:13:56,521
the condemned man just sort of
drifts ostffon t lo egslaleep
279
00:13:57,455 --> 00:13:58,022
without incident.
280
00:13:58,058 --> 00:14:00,158
it's more likely that
the paralytic agent
281
00:14:00,168 --> 00:14:02,293
simply prevents prisoners
from communicating.
282
00:14:03,296 --> 00:14:04,729
in fact, they could be suffocating,
283
00:14:04,765 --> 00:14:07,398
suffering excruciating
pain during the procedure.
284
00:14:08,668 --> 00:14:10,068
they're just unable to scream.
285
00:14:10,078 --> 00:14:12,038
how many of these
so-called botched executions
286
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,740
occurred in virginia? one.
287
00:14:14,977 --> 00:14:17,477
and the supreme court
has approved the method
288
00:14:17,487 --> 00:14:20,079
of lethal injection used in
the commonwealth of virginia?
289
00:14:20,748 --> 00:14:22,282
and we know they're such sticklers.
290
00:14:22,818 --> 00:14:25,218
mr. sack, i will hold you in contempt.
291
00:14:25,255 --> 00:14:28,155
and the supreme court has
not approved prison guards
292
00:14:28,165 --> 00:14:31,293
shooting condemned prisoners
has anybody asked them?
293
00:14:31,303 --> 00:14:33,427
now look, we all know
things went wrong here.
294
00:14:34,929 --> 00:14:35,629
that's not the point.
295
00:14:35,764 --> 00:14:37,598
i will repeat, the question here is,
296
00:14:38,301 --> 00:14:40,101
do we simply give
prison guards the right
297
00:14:40,111 --> 00:14:42,670
to just whip out their
guns and blast away?
298
00:14:43,106 --> 00:14:44,706
well, thank you, your honor,
299
00:14:45,908 --> 00:14:46,608
for framing the issue
300
00:14:51,816 --> 00:14:54,016
in such a neutral and impartial way.
301
00:14:59,924 --> 00:15:02,324
why do you need my help?
well, i don't probably.
302
00:15:03,495 --> 00:15:05,262
it's just denny's out of town and...
303
00:15:07,131 --> 00:15:07,897
will you give up, ever?
304
00:15:08,899 --> 00:15:09,632
i have no one to share
305
00:15:09,635 --> 00:15:11,835
private thoughts with
tonight on the balcony.
306
00:15:12,003 --> 00:15:13,803
shirley, this man feldcamp...
307
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:16,807
the unfettered, smug arrogance...
308
00:15:17,276 --> 00:15:19,509
he could almost make
rudy giuliani seem humble.
309
00:15:20,579 --> 00:15:21,579
come on. it'll be fun.
310
00:15:22,282 --> 00:15:24,648
he really fired her
because of how she voted?
311
00:15:24,718 --> 00:15:26,584
well, he's claiming it's stupidity,
312
00:15:28,254 --> 00:15:29,054
but yes, i think he did.
313
00:15:29,056 --> 00:15:31,222
and what exactly would my role be?
314
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:34,760
why do you say it with such distrust?
315
00:15:35,229 --> 00:15:37,562
because i can smell a dog on the sniff.
316
00:15:38,398 --> 00:15:39,064
don't be ridiculous.
317
00:15:39,066 --> 00:15:41,333
you're almost old enough to be my mother
318
00:15:42,803 --> 00:15:44,070
or one of my mother's friends...
319
00:15:44,807 --> 00:15:47,007
the one who used to
sunbathe naked by the pool.
320
00:15:49,078 --> 00:15:51,478
so you want to march
into court tomorrow,
321
00:15:52,048 --> 00:15:54,915
the two of us side by side,
and fight for a woman who...
322
00:15:55,917 --> 00:15:56,784
who voted for john mccain.
323
00:16:08,132 --> 00:16:10,732
he all but admitted to me, your honor,
324
00:16:11,035 --> 00:16:13,768
that he fired her because
she voted for john mccain.
325
00:16:14,372 --> 00:16:17,072
he made no such admission.
the basis was her stupidity.
326
00:16:17,575 --> 00:16:20,275
yes, and the evidence
of that was her vote.
327
00:16:20,511 --> 00:16:22,644
look, they got into a big political
328
00:16:22,654 --> 00:16:24,746
three days before...
during which, the plaintiff
329
00:16:24,882 --> 00:16:27,016
further displayed a
complete lack of intellect,
330
00:16:27,026 --> 00:16:29,018
which prompted my client...
because she didn't share
331
00:16:29,028 --> 00:16:31,987
your client's political point of
view. my client voted for mccain.
332
00:16:32,456 --> 00:16:34,056
your honor, my client is a republican
333
00:16:34,625 --> 00:16:36,292
who was happy with ms. headly's vote,
334
00:16:37,227 --> 00:16:37,760
but nonetheless,
335
00:16:38,697 --> 00:16:40,564
could not igno that
she was... well, dumb.
336
00:16:40,574 --> 00:16:42,466
how dare you? ms. headly.
337
00:16:42,476 --> 00:16:45,435
he just called me dumb
and stupid. ms. headly.
338
00:16:46,706 --> 00:16:48,506
mr. davidson, as i read the affidavit,
339
00:16:49,142 --> 00:16:52,209
it does seem like she was fired
for her political opinions.
340
00:16:52,219 --> 00:16:54,244
free speech is not a
right in the workplace.
341
00:16:56,148 --> 00:16:56,981
peop r their opinions
342
00:16:57,650 --> 00:16:58,450
and perceived intellect.
343
00:16:58,460 --> 00:17:01,086
that's why we have interviews,
to determine whether we like
344
00:17:01,096 --> 00:17:04,056
what comes out of their mouths. listen,
the fact is, this woman did get hired,
345
00:17:05,125 --> 00:17:06,025
and then she was discharged
346
00:17:06,035 --> 00:17:07,993
for exactly as you say, your honor,
347
00:17:09,329 --> 00:17:10,062
her political opinion.
348
00:17:10,131 --> 00:17:12,731
all right, i want to hear
ms. headly on the stand,
349
00:17:13,134 --> 00:17:15,334
and i want to hear
exactly how this went down.
350
00:17:16,603 --> 00:17:16,903
let's go.
351
00:17:20,373 --> 00:17:20,940
it seemed like...
352
00:17:22,543 --> 00:17:23,243
i don't know, like...
353
00:17:24,580 --> 00:17:26,880
like it had gone past
the point of torture even.
354
00:17:28,317 --> 00:17:30,650
i just... i couldn't
watch him suffer anymore.
355
00:17:31,985 --> 00:17:32,352
so i, um...
356
00:17:34,356 --> 00:17:34,856
i took him out.
357
00:17:35,924 --> 00:17:36,824
did you stop to think, sir,
358
00:17:36,834 --> 00:17:39,160
that you were breaking the
law by... no, no, no, no, no.
359
00:17:40,163 --> 00:17:42,029
all i could see w
- was a person suffering,
360
00:17:43,833 --> 00:17:45,366
just way beyond the point of...
361
00:17:47,203 --> 00:17:47,736
it was inhumane.
362
00:17:49,773 --> 00:17:50,739
somebody had to do something.
363
00:17:52,110 --> 00:17:54,743
i yelled at the others, but
they just stood there, so...
364
00:17:56,413 --> 00:17:57,113
it just wasn't right.
365
00:17:57,415 --> 00:18:00,215
you decided all by yourself
to take a human life.
366
00:18:00,651 --> 00:18:02,218
no, the... the man was dying anyw
367
00:18:02,488 --> 00:18:04,521
i made the decision
to be humane about it.
368
00:18:06,590 --> 00:18:06,790
i see.
369
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,493
i've prosecuted two doctors
who made the same decision.
370
00:18:09,503 --> 00:18:11,929
they had terminal patients in agony,
371
00:18:13,266 --> 00:18:15,366
so they decided to hasten their deaths.
372
00:18:17,038 --> 00:18:20,038
in fact, i believe your family
faced a similar situation.
373
00:18:22,910 --> 00:18:25,910
you had an aunt who was dying
of ovarian cancer. am i right?
374
00:18:27,312 --> 00:18:27,446
yes.
375
00:18:27,749 --> 00:18:30,049
and there were those in your family
376
00:18:30,059 --> 00:18:32,184
who wanted to put her on a morphine drip
377
00:18:33,421 --> 00:18:35,721
to speed things up because
she was suffering so.
378
00:18:36,755 --> 00:18:37,189
is that true?
379
00:18:38,625 --> 00:18:38,758
yes.
380
00:18:38,768 --> 00:18:41,427
what was your position
there? do you rember?
381
00:18:43,163 --> 00:18:43,730
i was against it.
382
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,600
you thought it was murder, didn't you?
383
00:18:47,170 --> 00:18:49,536
you told your mother and the doctor,
384
00:18:52,142 --> 00:18:54,542
"only god gets to make that call."
385
00:19:05,056 --> 00:19:07,956
do you now amend that to god
and correctional officers?
386
00:19:08,126 --> 00:19:10,993
we got into this huge
argument on nuclear energy.
387
00:19:11,529 --> 00:19:13,395
i'm against, and he's for it.
388
00:19:13,698 --> 00:19:15,931
now that argument somehow got replaced
389
00:19:17,868 --> 00:19:18,734
by some brouha on the war.
390
00:19:19,404 --> 00:19:21,471
i'm against it, and he's for it.
391
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:23,940
and that segued into taxes,
392
00:19:23,950 --> 00:19:26,443
and he doesn't think
hshould have to pay any,
393
00:19:26,453 --> 00:19:29,046
and i said to him that if he... so
you had a lot of political differences?
394
00:19:31,081 --> 00:19:31,381
yes. yes.
395
00:19:32,750 --> 00:19:33,717
well, then the very next day,
396
00:19:34,988 --> 00:19:37,521
after i did inform him
that i voted for mccain,
397
00:19:38,589 --> 00:19:39,589
he called me a complete idiot.
398
00:19:39,859 --> 00:19:41,626
uh, mr. feldcamp called you an idiot?
399
00:19:42,195 --> 00:19:43,995
a complete one. and then what happened?
400
00:19:44,005 --> 00:19:46,164
well, not long after that,
he walked into my office
401
00:19:47,298 --> 00:19:47,832
and he fired me.
402
00:19:48,902 --> 00:19:50,669
have you ever had any yearly reviews
403
00:19:50,679 --> 00:19:52,971
with respect to your
employment with mr. feldcamp?
404
00:19:54,305 --> 00:19:54,439
yes.
405
00:19:55,841 --> 00:19:56,308
how'd they go?
406
00:19:57,445 --> 00:19:59,411
okay. he said i could perform better
407
00:19:59,981 --> 00:20:01,814
and he said sales could be higher.
408
00:20:01,917 --> 00:20:04,350
but in this economy?
come on. you know that.
409
00:20:04,360 --> 00:20:06,152
it's bad everywhere. i mean, it's, like,
410
00:20:06,162 --> 00:20:08,521
the number one problem
in this country right now.
411
00:20:08,790 --> 00:20:11,557
so you consider the economy
to be the number one problem
412
00:20:11,567 --> 00:20:13,560
in the country? yes, i do.
413
00:20:15,230 --> 00:20:17,064
mm. if i may ask, how does jo
414
00:20:23,272 --> 00:20:24,172
differ from barack obama's?
415
00:20:27,075 --> 00:20:27,342
taxes...
416
00:20:30,245 --> 00:20:30,578
and, um...
417
00:20:30,588 --> 00:20:33,514
welli'm not exactly sure bo
stwhonat l eeglsale, to be honest.
418
00:20:34,384 --> 00:20:35,784
well, if you consider it to be
419
00:20:35,794 --> 00:20:39,688
the number one problem in the country... look,
even despite how they all say they'll be different,
420
00:20:40,325 --> 00:20:43,059
they all do the same thing
once they get elected.
421
00:20:43,069 --> 00:20:46,428
come on. you know that. you were
an ardent hillary clinton supporter,
422
00:20:47,132 --> 00:20:49,099
were you not? yes, i was, proudly.
423
00:20:49,109 --> 00:20:52,068
and according to your coworkers,
you crossed over to mccain
424
00:20:52,078 --> 00:20:54,104
primarily because of sarah palin. yes.
425
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,807
because her policies were
consistent with hillary's?
426
00:20:57,043 --> 00:20:59,443
because i was impressed with her.
427
00:20:59,453 --> 00:21:01,478
and because she strikes
me as a real american,
428
00:21:01,614 --> 00:21:03,580
which is what this country needs.
429
00:21:04,750 --> 00:21:05,550
and you liked her spunk.
430
00:21:06,453 --> 00:21:08,553
and the country needs spunk, too, yes.
431
00:21:17,729 --> 00:21:18,696
another saturday night
432
00:21:19,632 --> 00:21:19,898
on legal
433
00:21:20,102 --> 00:21:22,868
i don't have a good
feeling on this one, denny.
434
00:21:23,705 --> 00:21:25,805
virginia is not being nice to me.
435
00:21:28,409 --> 00:21:29,742
a little constructive criticism?
436
00:21:31,813 --> 00:21:32,879
okay. you're not very good.
437
00:21:32,889 --> 00:21:34,847
thanks for keeping it constructive.
438
00:21:35,549 --> 00:21:36,349
well, you're making this
439
00:21:36,952 --> 00:21:38,485
a referendum on the death penalty.
440
00:21:38,495 --> 00:21:40,954
you gotta get it through that
liberal, democrat skull...
441
00:21:41,323 --> 00:21:42,890
americans love the death penalty.
442
00:21:44,225 --> 00:21:44,425
we do?
443
00:21:45,828 --> 00:21:46,794
yeah, especially these parts.
444
00:21:46,897 --> 00:21:49,763
hillary and obama, you
know those pinko-heads
445
00:21:50,833 --> 00:21:52,667
couldn't really be pro-death penalty,
446
00:21:53,869 --> 00:21:54,602
but they claim they ar
447
00:21:54,705 --> 00:21:57,405
and in fact, almost everyone
who runs for president
448
00:21:57,641 --> 00:21:59,407
miraculously is for the death penalty.
449
00:22:01,211 --> 00:22:03,044
why? 'cause this is the u.s. of a.
450
00:22:04,847 --> 00:22:05,514
death penalty rules.
451
00:22:05,717 --> 00:22:08,451
flip the switch, ready,
aim, fire, turn up the gas...
452
00:22:09,553 --> 00:22:10,486
it's who we are as a people.
453
00:22:12,022 --> 00:22:13,656
hell, you... you heard it at
454
00:22:14,558 --> 00:22:15,124
kill, baby, kill.
455
00:22:16,527 --> 00:22:17,260
it's our mantra, carl.
456
00:22:18,063 --> 00:22:20,430
i thought republicans were pro-life.
457
00:22:21,300 --> 00:22:23,133
that's for babies. criminals we kill.
458
00:22:24,103 --> 00:22:26,270
you're going about this ass backwards.
459
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,240
the argument you want to
make to the jury is this...
460
00:22:30,942 --> 00:22:31,775
that, uh, uh, willis guy,
461
00:22:32,846 --> 00:22:34,779
he wasn't dying the
way he was supposed to.
462
00:22:35,714 --> 00:22:36,714
after receiving the injection,
463
00:22:37,250 --> 00:22:38,717
the bastard refused to choke out.
464
00:22:39,851 --> 00:22:40,884
so our client finished him off.
465
00:22:41,353 --> 00:22:41,519
legal
466
00:22:43,556 --> 00:22:44,423
job done, game over, bang.
467
00:22:45,758 --> 00:22:46,691
preston holt, american hero.
468
00:22:48,060 --> 00:22:48,627
kill, baby, kill.
469
00:22:50,864 --> 00:22:52,831
some good ole boys having some fun
470
00:22:58,271 --> 00:22:58,405
ahh.
471
00:22:59,406 --> 00:22:59,906
do you think...
472
00:23:02,078 --> 00:23:04,178
martha and sarah and joe the...
473
00:23:05,145 --> 00:23:05,845
is he an electrician?
474
00:23:07,148 --> 00:23:07,814
plumber, unlicensed.
475
00:23:08,917 --> 00:23:11,051
are... are they the real americans?
476
00:23:12,019 --> 00:23:12,553
not necessarily.
477
00:23:13,556 --> 00:23:15,490
i think that's what
this ection just proved,
478
00:23:16,627 --> 00:23:18,860
that real americans aren't
just rural and white.
479
00:23:20,896 --> 00:23:21,896
the portrait of real americans
480
00:23:23,467 --> 00:23:25,133
has been redrawn in this election.
481
00:23:25,937 --> 00:23:28,870
real americans are of all
ages, races, ethnicities.
482
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,473
they live in cities and apartments
483
00:23:33,744 --> 00:23:34,410
as well as... farms.
484
00:23:35,946 --> 00:23:36,946
i... we have a president-elect
485
00:23:39,151 --> 00:23:41,685
who fits into no category
or demographic whatsoever
486
00:23:46,191 --> 00:23:47,125
other than he's an american.
487
00:23:50,128 --> 00:23:50,895
god, i wept that night.
488
00:23:52,964 --> 00:23:53,597
did you?
489
00:23:59,238 --> 00:24:01,005
no, i just... watched and watched and...
490
00:24:05,845 --> 00:24:07,111
didn't want e night to end.
491
00:24:08,515 --> 00:24:10,149
i already miss sarah palin, though.
492
00:24:10,318 --> 00:24:12,718
she was fun while she lasted.
493
00:24:15,423 --> 00:24:17,323
i hope they let her keep the wardrobe.
494
00:24:18,725 --> 00:24:19,325
i still have to sa
495
00:24:23,097 --> 00:24:25,731
as heartened as i am by the
election and by america...
496
00:24:27,468 --> 00:24:27,634
what?
497
00:24:27,837 --> 00:24:30,604
martha's a little bit of an idiot.
498
00:24:31,006 --> 00:24:32,873
shirley, almost 47% of this country
499
00:24:33,842 --> 00:24:34,575
didn't vote for obama,
500
00:24:34,611 --> 00:24:37,377
perhaps because ey disagreed
with him on the issues,
501
00:24:38,814 --> 00:24:39,280
which is fine.
502
00:24:41,018 --> 00:24:44,051
but some, no doubt, because
they thought he was muslim
503
00:24:44,687 --> 00:24:46,320
with terrorists on his speed dial,
504
00:24:46,923 --> 00:24:48,623
and others because
th-they were convinced
505
00:24:49,627 --> 00:24:52,360
he was not only socialist,
but even worse, a bad bowler,
506
00:24:52,630 --> 00:24:54,563
and others still
because they simply loved
507
00:24:55,067 --> 00:24:57,834
those cream-colored jackets
sarah may have to give back.
508
00:24:59,972 --> 00:25:02,472
but there's one thing all
those idiots have in common.
509
00:25:03,441 --> 00:25:04,574
what? they still get to vote.
510
00:25:16,486 --> 00:25:16,653
what?
511
00:25:20,926 --> 00:25:21,126
sorry.
512
00:25:23,764 --> 00:25:26,064
just looking at you under
a gently lit sky with...
513
00:25:27,268 --> 00:25:30,001
sharing the same oral
fixation denny and i...
514
00:25:33,506 --> 00:25:34,373
is it a little game, alan,
515
00:25:35,210 --> 00:25:37,710
or... or are you really
sexually attracted to me?
516
00:25:39,479 --> 00:25:40,479
i'm sexually attracted to you.
517
00:25:44,584 --> 00:25:45,051
i'm in my 60s.
518
00:25:45,853 --> 00:25:47,753
well, first of all, you're beautiful.
519
00:25:52,594 --> 00:25:54,361
and second, your
intellect is... dazzling.
520
00:25:54,371 --> 00:25:58,098
and third, i've seen the naked
pictures of you. oh, right.
521
00:25:58,234 --> 00:26:00,167
let's not discuss the
cheerleader outfit.
522
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:05,740
oh.
523
00:26:08,443 --> 00:26:08,777
so if i...
524
00:26:10,914 --> 00:26:13,481
if i wanted to go there, you'd go there?
525
00:26:18,421 --> 00:26:18,821
in a second.
526
00:26:18,831 --> 00:26:22,892
oh, if only obama had picked
you as vice president...
527
00:26:25,262 --> 00:26:26,195
what a world we'd have then.
528
00:26:44,567 --> 00:26:46,600
look... i can see the defendant's point.
529
00:26:47,436 --> 00:26:49,970
the man was dying anyway.
what's the big deal?
530
00:26:51,439 --> 00:26:51,672
well...
531
00:26:52,809 --> 00:26:55,109
what about the doctor
or the hospice worker
532
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,578
who wants to speed the
death of that cancer patient
533
00:26:58,780 --> 00:26:59,280
dying in agony?
534
00:26:59,316 --> 00:27:01,950
or what about the nurses
who opt to withhold treatment
535
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:04,753
from those severely retarded infants
536
00:27:04,763 --> 00:27:06,453
who only face a lifetime of misery?
537
00:27:07,056 --> 00:27:07,189
egal
538
00:27:09,025 --> 00:27:09,925
we don't go down that path.
539
00:27:10,895 --> 00:27:13,529
we don't start measuring
the quality of people's lives
540
00:27:14,832 --> 00:27:16,399
to decide whether or not they live.
541
00:27:18,070 --> 00:27:20,637
the defendant took the
law into his own hands
542
00:27:21,572 --> 00:27:22,305
and murdered somebody.
543
00:27:22,908 --> 00:27:25,041
nobody gets the right to do that.
544
00:27:25,844 --> 00:27:27,844
whether the person is on death row,
545
00:27:28,514 --> 00:27:30,514
whether a person has a day left to live,
546
00:27:33,385 --> 00:27:34,285
an hour or even a minute...
547
00:27:36,822 --> 00:27:37,888
you don't get to shoot somebody.
548
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:42,260
that's the law.
549
00:27:43,529 --> 00:27:44,095
that's the law...
550
00:27:45,433 --> 00:27:48,199
because of a presumed
sanctity of human life?
551
00:27:48,468 --> 00:27:50,201
that sanctity was off the tab here.
552
00:27:52,905 --> 00:27:54,539
the life was being
executed by the state.
553
00:27:55,608 --> 00:27:55,875
Previously on boston legal
554
00:27:56,945 --> 00:27:59,879
uh, forgive me, but you know
what i think is really going on
555
00:28:01,416 --> 00:28:03,249
is this man doesn't
like capital punishment,
556
00:28:03,284 --> 00:28:05,251
and he's trying to
bring scrutiny upon it.
557
00:28:06,054 --> 00:28:07,821
it's the only possible explanation.
558
00:28:08,091 --> 00:28:10,657
if he can get you to say
this execution was wrong,
559
00:28:11,226 --> 00:28:13,360
well, that's one step from saying,
560
00:28:13,370 --> 00:28:15,997
"gee, maybe executions are
wrong." that's ridiculous.
561
00:28:16,007 --> 00:28:18,299
more ridiculous than accusing
a man of murdering someone
562
00:28:19,067 --> 00:28:19,834
who was being executed?
563
00:28:19,844 --> 00:28:21,803
let's not kid ourselves.
there are those out there
564
00:28:21,972 --> 00:28:24,005
trying to get rid of capital punishment.
565
00:28:24,141 --> 00:28:26,308
and i would suspect
they have to be tricky
566
00:28:27,779 --> 00:28:30,812
because they know we the people
are overwhelmingly for it.
567
00:28:31,615 --> 00:28:33,382
we the people know the death penalty
568
00:28:33,818 --> 00:28:36,051
is one of the things
that makes america...
569
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:38,187
well, america.
570
00:28:38,197 --> 00:28:40,289
not many countries have it, you know?
571
00:28:40,299 --> 00:28:41,957
we're... we're the only
westernized country left.
572
00:28:42,224 --> 00:28:42,691
and it's not e
573
00:28:44,729 --> 00:28:46,262
asy being in the company of iraq,
574
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,733
china, saudi arabia, pakistan, sudan.
575
00:28:49,969 --> 00:28:53,069
and i'll admit, the reasons for
abolishing capital punishment
576
00:28:54,572 --> 00:28:55,072
are compelling.
577
00:28:55,441 --> 00:28:57,274
it costs us hundreds
of millions of dollars,
578
00:28:57,744 --> 00:29:00,011
up to six times more
than life imprisonment.
579
00:29:00,813 --> 00:29:01,846
it doesn't seem to deter crime.
580
00:29:01,856 --> 00:29:04,048
murder rates are actually lower
in non-death-penalty states.
581
00:29:05,684 --> 00:29:06,217
it's well-known.
582
00:29:06,353 --> 00:29:08,486
canada's homicide rate fell 40%
583
00:29:08,555 --> 00:29:10,722
after they abolished the death penalty.
584
00:29:11,858 --> 00:29:12,724
we botch executions a lot.
585
00:29:13,359 --> 00:29:14,226
medical evidence now shows
586
00:29:14,395 --> 00:29:16,929
that even when they
go off without a hitch,
587
00:29:19,034 --> 00:29:21,267
the executed suffer
perhaps excruciating pain.
588
00:29:21,470 --> 00:29:24,237
there are many reasons to do
away with capital punishment.
589
00:29:24,973 --> 00:29:27,140
but we don't because, let's face it,
590
00:29:28,510 --> 00:29:30,710
the death penalty? it's
who we are as a people.
591
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:32,879
we're an eye-for-an-eye
kind of nation,
592
00:29:33,081 --> 00:29:34,848
and we don't have to apologize for it.
593
00:29:35,650 --> 00:29:37,117
listen, if somebody killed my son...
594
00:29:38,654 --> 00:29:40,254
we believe in executing murderers.
595
00:29:44,359 --> 00:29:44,892
it's... justice.
596
00:29:45,094 --> 00:29:46,861
the only thing my client did here
597
00:29:47,964 --> 00:29:49,697
was carry out the state's mission.
598
00:29:49,707 --> 00:29:51,700
it makes no sense to be prosecuting him.
599
00:29:53,138 --> 00:29:56,071
the only conceivable
explanation is that this man
600
00:29:57,009 --> 00:30:00,042
is insidiously trying to bring
scrutiny on the death penalty
601
00:30:05,384 --> 00:30:07,617
because he secretly... is against it.
602
00:30:16,162 --> 00:30:18,696
no, look, as i said to
her lawyer over there,
603
00:30:19,499 --> 00:30:21,799
i like martha headly. nice lady.
604
00:30:21,934 --> 00:30:23,768
but my god, sales is about selling,
605
00:30:24,870 --> 00:30:25,870
it's about relating to people.
606
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,239
she doesn't even read the newspaper.
well, george bush doesn't read the paper.
607
00:30:28,249 --> 00:30:30,575
i'd never hire george
bush. would anybody?
608
00:30:30,911 --> 00:30:33,245
and yet you voted for john
mccain, who supports...
609
00:30:33,514 --> 00:30:35,881
no, no, no, no, no. this
is not about politics.
610
00:30:35,891 --> 00:30:37,850
this is about being smart or not smart,
611
00:30:38,086 --> 00:30:40,619
and she is the latter. but,
mr. feldcamp, to be fair,
612
00:30:40,629 --> 00:30:43,089
you're basing your conclusion
on her political opinion.
613
00:30:44,290 --> 00:30:44,923
no, what i'm saying
614
00:30:44,933 --> 00:30:46,726
is that whatever your
opinion is about anything,
615
00:30:46,736 --> 00:30:47,025
at least be able to defend
it, and failing that, ar
616
00:30:49,129 --> 00:30:49,462
culate it.
617
00:30:50,364 --> 00:30:50,997
martha's never been
618
00:30:51,007 --> 00:30:52,732
the brightest bulb in the tanning booth,
619
00:30:52,736 --> 00:30:55,669
but when she talks politics,
i, you know, i just cringe.
620
00:30:55,679 --> 00:30:58,472
i go, "how can i have a person
like that working for me?"
621
00:30:58,482 --> 00:31:00,541
well, guess what. my
company. i don't have to.
622
00:31:00,551 --> 00:31:03,411
do you make all your employees
defend their political beliefs?
623
00:31:04,114 --> 00:31:06,514
not all my employees launch into them.
624
00:31:06,524 --> 00:31:09,317
but had she defended hers better, she
might... look, look, look, for 16 months,
625
00:31:10,052 --> 00:31:11,019
she just went prancing around
626
00:31:11,122 --> 00:31:13,755
talking hillary,
hillary, hillary, hillary,
627
00:31:13,765 --> 00:31:15,724
and then she railed
against obama's inexperience
628
00:31:16,225 --> 00:31:17,192
all throughout the primaries,
629
00:31:17,929 --> 00:31:20,195
and then out comes some
moose hunter from alaska.
630
00:31:20,531 --> 00:31:22,664
she knowsnothing about sarah palin
631
00:31:22,674 --> 00:31:24,767
or about john mccain. what
does that say about her? sarah?
632
00:31:25,702 --> 00:31:26,302
no. hillary?
633
00:31:26,838 --> 00:31:29,205
her! what does it say about a person
634
00:31:29,408 --> 00:31:31,774
who can be so arbitrary, so fice?
635
00:31:31,784 --> 00:31:34,077
and this is about stuff she
actually felt strongly about.
636
00:31:34,087 --> 00:31:36,079
i'll tell you what it
says. she is an idiot.
637
00:31:36,348 --> 00:31:38,048
you know, let somebody else hire her.
638
00:31:38,582 --> 00:31:39,482
i don't think it'll be you.
639
00:31:39,492 --> 00:31:40,050
howdareyou let him go off on m
640
00:31:41,319 --> 00:31:42,152
like that in a courtroom.
641
00:31:42,162 --> 00:31:44,988
i didn't let him go off.
i was... yes, you did.
642
00:31:46,325 --> 00:31:48,092
he was bellowing that i was an idiot,
643
00:31:48,328 --> 00:31:50,961
and you just sat there, and
so did you... of all people.
644
00:31:51,330 --> 00:31:52,930
now wait. what's that supposed to mean?
645
00:31:53,166 --> 00:31:55,299
it means that it was blatant sexism.
646
00:31:56,236 --> 00:31:58,536
and i expected more from
a person of your caliber.
647
00:31:58,546 --> 00:32:01,540
now hold on here. is that
the kind of lawyer you are?
648
00:32:03,175 --> 00:32:04,042
is that the kind of woman?
649
00:32:04,912 --> 00:32:06,712
honey, the sexist in all this is you.
650
00:32:07,980 --> 00:32:08,080
me?
651
00:32:08,090 --> 00:32:11,016
yeah. you claim to be a staunch
hillary clinton supporter.
652
00:32:11,485 --> 00:32:13,019
you... you walked into that booth
653
00:32:13,029 --> 00:32:15,821
and voted against everything
hillary stands for, and why?
654
00:32:15,831 --> 00:32:17,790
because the republicans
added to their ticket
655
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,759
someone they referred
to at the convention
656
00:32:20,129 --> 00:32:22,329
as "the hot chick." oh.
657
00:32:22,833 --> 00:32:26,033
so you just sit quiet and let
me get brutalized on the stand...
658
00:32:27,035 --> 00:32:27,968
i sat there for two reasons.
659
00:32:28,204 --> 00:32:30,404
first, there was no valid
objection to be made.
660
00:32:32,173 --> 00:32:32,539
and second?
661
00:32:34,109 --> 00:32:34,676
you are an idiot.
662
00:32:43,171 --> 00:32:45,438
at-will employment means
exactly that, your honor.
663
00:32:46,607 --> 00:32:47,373
at the employer's will.
664
00:32:49,011 --> 00:32:52,045
certainly, we can't fire
anybody for race or ethnicity.
665
00:32:53,115 --> 00:32:55,415
but, well, intellect or
a person's lack of it?
666
00:32:56,719 --> 00:32:58,819
bosses fire people
all the time for that.
667
00:32:58,829 --> 00:32:59,351
but, mr. davidson,
668
00:33:00,056 --> 00:33:02,623
fire someone for their
political opinion is still...
669
00:33:03,126 --> 00:33:05,593
your honor, if i may, that's
one way to look at this.
670
00:33:06,296 --> 00:33:08,863
the other way... are
we saying that stupidity
671
00:33:08,998 --> 00:33:10,898
can never be grounds for discharge
672
00:33:12,034 --> 00:33:13,901
when it's cloaked in political content?
673
00:33:15,471 --> 00:33:16,638
he's the boss. it's h
674
00:33:16,940 --> 00:33:19,040
so as long as he stays within the law,
675
00:33:19,110 --> 00:33:21,343
he gets to hire and fire who he wants.
676
00:33:22,345 --> 00:33:23,345
the unassailable right to vote
677
00:33:23,355 --> 00:33:25,448
is the core principle of any democracy.
678
00:33:25,650 --> 00:33:28,184
and people have the
right to cast their ballot
679
00:33:28,253 --> 00:33:30,653
for whomever they
want... for good reasons
680
00:33:30,663 --> 00:33:32,856
or for bad reasons or
for no reason at all.
681
00:33:32,866 --> 00:33:34,924
let's face it, your
honor, we as a nation
682
00:33:35,091 --> 00:33:35,691
are horribly uninf
683
00:33:37,428 --> 00:33:38,595
med when it comes to politics.
684
00:33:39,365 --> 00:33:41,798
approximately one-thd of
the people in this country,
685
00:33:42,567 --> 00:33:43,267
people of voting age,
686
00:33:43,277 --> 00:33:45,236
couldn't tell you the name
of our current vice president.
687
00:33:45,246 --> 00:33:47,604
now admittedly, some of
us like to block it out,
688
00:33:49,775 --> 00:33:50,842
only two in five adult americans
689
00:33:50,844 --> 00:33:53,411
know we have three
branches of government.
690
00:33:53,747 --> 00:33:55,713
and mr. feldcamp expects his employees
691
00:33:56,016 --> 00:33:58,183
to actually know the
political issues of the day?
692
00:33:59,251 --> 00:34:00,218
well, today our news programs
693
00:34:00,754 --> 00:34:02,621
consist solely of sensational headlines
694
00:34:03,589 --> 00:34:04,122
and sound bites.
695
00:34:04,132 --> 00:34:06,258
people fgo newspapers for the internet,
696
00:34:06,268 --> 00:34:08,327
where instead of relying
on credentialed journalists,
697
00:34:08,631 --> 00:34:11,597
they turn to these bloggers...
sort of entry-level life-forms
698
00:34:12,001 --> 00:34:15,168
that intellectually have yet to
emerge from the primordial ooze.
699
00:34:16,036 --> 00:34:16,836
this is how we've gotten
700
00:34:16,846 --> 00:34:18,371
the elected officials we've gotten.
701
00:34:18,381 --> 00:34:20,273
we've never really cared
about issues. come on.
702
00:34:20,609 --> 00:34:22,643
we're more concerned with how hillar
703
00:34:24,145 --> 00:34:25,045
or whether barack can bowl.
704
00:34:25,055 --> 00:34:27,915
we don't always go for
the best or the brightest.
705
00:34:27,925 --> 00:34:30,618
we elect the guy we'd most
like to have a beer with
706
00:34:30,628 --> 00:34:32,820
or the gal we'd most like to
feel up in the back of the car.
707
00:34:32,957 --> 00:34:35,857
now i certainly wouldn't
pick my airline pilot that way
708
00:34:36,959 --> 00:34:37,859
or my accountant or doctor,
709
00:34:37,995 --> 00:34:40,195
but for my president, so often, it's,
710
00:34:40,205 --> 00:34:42,364
"give me the blue-collar,
lunch-bucket, good ol' boy
711
00:34:42,374 --> 00:34:44,334
who fits in best at
the pancake breakfast."
712
00:34:45,135 --> 00:34:46,135
the problem with mr. feldcamp,
713
00:34:46,145 --> 00:34:48,637
and forgive me, i hesitate
to say this about anybody,
714
00:34:49,073 --> 00:34:50,906
but he's an elitist. objection.
715
00:34:50,916 --> 00:34:53,543
i realize that's much worse
than being called stupid.
716
00:34:54,845 --> 00:34:56,178
mr. shore, let's stay
717
00:34:56,181 --> 00:34:58,114
the message is, we vote for who we like.
718
00:34:58,124 --> 00:35:00,517
it's as simple as that. we
don't need to have a reason.
719
00:35:01,318 --> 00:35:02,085
it's as simple as that.
720
00:35:02,488 --> 00:35:04,821
the founding fathers did
not form a meritocracy.
721
00:35:05,191 --> 00:35:08,125
this is a democracy. we can
be as stupid as we choose.
722
00:35:09,529 --> 00:35:11,529
we're americans. we're
as simple as that.
723
00:35:12,931 --> 00:35:13,531
all right. look...
724
00:35:14,733 --> 00:35:15,266
i don't like it.
725
00:35:17,369 --> 00:35:18,336
but just as we don't get into
726
00:35:18,346 --> 00:35:20,872
why a person voted
the way he or she did,
727
00:35:21,774 --> 00:35:22,374
nor do we get into
728
00:35:22,384 --> 00:35:25,009
why a boss terminates
somebody in an at-will.
729
00:35:25,545 --> 00:35:27,578
whoa, whoa, wait. it
sounds like i'm losing.
730
00:35:29,716 --> 00:35:30,749
an injunctive relief is denied.
731
00:35:31,086 --> 00:35:33,719
if she wants to sue for
lost wages, i can't stop her.
732
00:35:34,722 --> 00:35:37,122
but we're done here. we are adjourned.
733
00:35:39,193 --> 00:35:39,793
i'm sorry, martha.
734
00:35:40,196 --> 00:35:42,996
you didn't try hard enough.
that's what happened.
735
00:35:46,433 --> 00:35:47,200
i'll be suing you next.
736
00:35:51,205 --> 00:35:51,805
i never liked you.
737
00:35:52,042 --> 00:35:54,375
she seemed much more fun in high scho.
738
00:35:56,010 --> 00:35:56,677
oh, well.
739
00:35:57,213 --> 00:35:58,679
shirley, in anticipation of winning,
740
00:35:59,216 --> 00:36:01,416
i booked a little celebration
dinner at the ritz.
741
00:36:01,853 --> 00:36:04,619
the restaurant that comes
equipped with private rooms
742
00:36:05,222 --> 00:36:07,222
should we have too
much celebratory wine.
743
00:36:10,929 --> 00:36:13,696
shirley, one's life is a sum
of his or her experiences.
744
00:36:16,565 --> 00:36:16,932
okay, alan.
745
00:36:18,668 --> 00:36:18,768
oh.
746
00:36:20,370 --> 00:36:21,170
with denny's permission.
747
00:36:22,907 --> 00:36:23,673
what? why do you need...
748
00:36:24,842 --> 00:36:25,275
because i do.
749
00:36:26,877 --> 00:36:27,277
till then...
750
00:36:29,013 --> 00:36:29,546
i'll be waiting.
751
00:36:38,557 --> 00:36:40,423
has the jury reached a verdict?
752
00:36:42,060 --> 00:36:42,393
we h
753
00:36:44,396 --> 00:36:44,796
how say you?
754
00:36:44,806 --> 00:36:46,865
"in the matter of the
commonwealth of virginia
755
00:36:47,833 --> 00:36:48,400
"vs. preston holt
756
00:36:48,870 --> 00:36:51,370
"on the charge of murder
in the second degree,
757
00:36:52,338 --> 00:36:53,071
"we find the defendant
758
00:36:53,908 --> 00:36:55,508
not guilty." oh.
759
00:36:55,518 --> 00:36:57,743
the court thanks you for your service.
760
00:36:57,753 --> 00:37:00,380
the defendant isree to
go. we are adjourned.
761
00:37:01,182 --> 00:37:03,182
thank you, mr. sack. uh, you're welcome.
762
00:37:03,192 --> 00:37:06,319
i wasn't exactly sure of your strategy
there, but... not to worry. neither was i.
763
00:37:08,556 --> 00:37:09,256
thank you, mr. crane.
764
00:37:11,425 --> 00:37:12,092
you're welcome, son.
765
00:37:28,946 --> 00:37:31,346
do you think it's odd that
when running for office,
766
00:37:32,017 --> 00:37:34,950
having an ivy league education
is considered a liability?
767
00:37:36,317 --> 00:37:36,417
no.
768
00:37:37,653 --> 00:37:37,920
you dot?
769
00:37:39,090 --> 00:37:41,390
no, a harvard grad took us into vietnam,
770
00:37:42,426 --> 00:37:43,326
a yale grad bought us iraq.
771
00:37:44,127 --> 00:37:44,960
we've learned our lesson.
772
00:37:45,129 --> 00:37:46,929
denny... between you and me,
773
00:37:46,939 --> 00:37:50,566
do we really think he made it
through y with a little help.
774
00:37:56,574 --> 00:37:57,140
denny, there's...
775
00:37:58,043 --> 00:37:59,977
something a little...
776
00:38:02,515 --> 00:38:04,448
well, delicate i've
been meaning to discuss.
777
00:38:06,016 --> 00:38:06,183
what?
778
00:38:08,621 --> 00:38:10,155
well, they say as a man... ages,
779
00:38:13,994 --> 00:38:16,628
he eventually sits alone
with nothing but his memories.
780
00:38:17,863 --> 00:38:18,563
i'm concerned that...
781
00:38:19,965 --> 00:38:20,531
well, with the...
782
00:38:22,235 --> 00:38:22,501
mad cow,
783
00:38:24,573 --> 00:38:27,540
you could possibly be robbed
of your memories in the end.
784
00:38:30,444 --> 00:38:31,310
and what a horrible thing,
785
00:38:34,850 --> 00:38:36,850
not being able to even
recollect the things...
786
00:38:41,457 --> 00:38:43,324
that brought you your most profound joy.
787
00:38:44,092 --> 00:38:44,925
making love to shirley...
788
00:38:49,231 --> 00:38:49,931
how sad if one day...
789
00:38:51,033 --> 00:38:51,966
you weren't able to remember
790
00:38:55,237 --> 00:38:56,237
all the... wonders of shirley,
791
00:38:58,874 --> 00:38:59,508
how she... smelled,
792
00:39:00,776 --> 00:39:01,510
how she tasted, how...
793
00:39:03,346 --> 00:39:03,912
i was thinking...
794
00:39:04,014 --> 00:39:06,180
if that day ever came,
and you no longer...
795
00:39:07,149 --> 00:39:07,283
egal
796
00:39:08,119 --> 00:39:10,219
it would be great if i
could tell you about it
797
00:39:12,789 --> 00:39:13,489
to help you remember.
798
00:39:13,825 --> 00:39:16,125
maybe i should make
love with shirley once,
799
00:39:16,429 --> 00:39:18,729
just so i'd know... you're pathetic.
800
00:39:20,264 --> 00:39:20,964
exploiting my mad cow
801
00:39:20,974 --> 00:39:24,635
just so you could get in the
sack with shirley? all right.
802
00:39:25,271 --> 00:39:27,371
i can't believe you just did that.
803
00:39:27,381 --> 00:39:30,141
waltzing me down mad cow lane
where there's no memory lane
804
00:39:35,181 --> 00:39:36,414
just so you... all right.
805
00:39:36,917 --> 00:39:38,784
here's where your logic failed, alan.
806
00:39:39,988 --> 00:39:42,721
first of all, i'll never
be alone because i got you.
807
00:39:43,023 --> 00:39:44,723
secondly, i could never forget
808
00:39:44,733 --> 00:39:46,692
what it was like to bwith shirley
809
00:39:46,702 --> 00:39:49,662
because there was a magic there
that no man couldeverforget.
810
00:39:51,699 --> 00:39:52,532
in fact, there's a chance
811
00:39:53,903 --> 00:39:56,803
that it'll be the last
memory i'll have in the end.
812
00:39:58,808 --> 00:40:01,642
it could be the only thing
i'll talk about in the end.
813
00:40:03,811 --> 00:40:04,311
all day long...
814
00:40:06,381 --> 00:40:06,781
every day...
815
00:40:08,850 --> 00:40:09,617
i'll tell you about it.
816
00:40:11,353 --> 00:40:11,886
i'll tell you...
817
00:40:12,322 --> 00:40:14,255
how we moved together as one
818
00:40:15,993 --> 00:40:18,460
one night on the beach in nantucket...
819
00:40:19,630 --> 00:40:21,663
how her breasts were as soft
820
00:40:21,865 --> 00:40:23,698
and as pure as a baby's behind.
821
00:40:24,369 --> 00:40:26,869
you really are cruel. yes, i am.
822
00:40:27,139 --> 00:40:30,305
cruel enough to shoot you if
you so much as look at shirley.
823
00:40:36,514 --> 00:40:38,247
i need a new woman to objectify.
824
00:40:39,685 --> 00:40:41,385
what do you think of sarah palin?
825
00:40:43,589 --> 00:40:45,422
oh, those pouty lips...
826
00:40:45,432 --> 00:40:47,890
and the... those down-to-earth,
slutty good looks...
827
00:40:49,663 --> 00:40:51,257
i've got two things to
say about sarah palin...
828
00:40:51,626 --> 00:40:52,882
Right here, right now.
829
00:40:57,883 --> 00:40:58,983
Do you think we're sexist ?
830
00:40:59,921 --> 00:41:01,961
Why you're asking ?
831
00:41:02,641 --> 00:41:04,218
Just wondering aloud.
832
00:41:09,299 --> 00:41:14,611
What about Shirley and Sarah together
833
00:41:15,419 --> 00:41:17,739
here the tickets
834
00:41:19,155 --> 00:41:22,037
Who wouldn't vote for that.
835
00:41:23,305 --> 00:41:29,242
