Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,712
Previously on 'Boston legal'
2
00:00:01,747 --> 00:00:04,216
Jerry said you were worried you might have done this.
3
00:00:04,251 --> 00:00:06,144
I experienced some kind of a blackout.
4
00:00:06,179 --> 00:00:07,871
We need to change our plea.
5
00:00:07,906 --> 00:00:09,564
No, no, no, no, no, no!
6
00:00:09,599 --> 00:00:10,548
She's insane.
7
00:00:10,583 --> 00:00:13,013
What do you think Mrs. Wilkes loved most about you?
8
00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:14,310
I made her laugh.
9
00:00:14,345 --> 00:00:15,281
You made her laugh.
10
00:00:15,282 --> 00:00:15,842
I'm funny.
11
00:00:15,877 --> 00:00:17,515
Were you obsessed with Marcia Hooper?
12
00:00:17,550 --> 00:00:18,362
I adored her.
13
00:00:18,397 --> 00:00:20,164
Why'd she get a restraining order against you?
14
00:00:20,199 --> 00:00:22,401
What do I have to do, kill somebody?
15
00:00:22,826 --> 00:00:24,538
Oops. I didn't see you there.
16
00:00:24,573 --> 00:00:26,215
What are you doing, Lincoln?
17
00:00:26,250 --> 00:00:30,241
Tonight's date is with me after all, Shirley Schmidt.
18
00:00:39,799 --> 00:00:42,631
The latest report is that Ms. Jane is conscious.
19
00:00:42,632 --> 00:00:44,123
She will survive.
20
00:00:44,158 --> 00:00:46,621
Police are not commenting on whether she was able to provide
21
00:00:46,656 --> 00:00:48,563
any information on her assailant...
22
00:00:48,598 --> 00:00:49,253
Denny...
23
00:00:49,254 --> 00:00:51,763
Can you believe it? Somebody actually tried to take her out.
24
00:00:51,798 --> 00:00:52,982
Have you seen Shirley?
25
00:00:53,017 --> 00:00:54,297
Naked?
26
00:00:54,332 --> 00:00:55,542
Lately.
27
00:00:55,577 --> 00:00:58,228
She hasn't come in. She's not answering her calls.
28
00:00:58,263 --> 00:01:00,804
She's, uh, just disappeared.
29
00:01:05,232 --> 00:01:09,705
Christmas, Christmas time is near
30
00:01:09,740 --> 00:01:11,851
Time for toys
31
00:01:11,886 --> 00:01:14,131
And time for cheer
32
00:01:14,166 --> 00:01:18,673
We've been good but we can't last
33
00:01:18,708 --> 00:01:23,730
Hurry, Christmas, hurry fast
34
00:01:29,004 --> 00:01:30,422
Would you like to scream?
35
00:01:30,457 --> 00:01:33,163
It's okay. The room is completely soundproof.
36
00:01:33,198 --> 00:01:35,553
It's my little safe room.
37
00:01:35,588 --> 00:01:37,596
Listen, if I agreed not to press charges...
38
00:01:37,631 --> 00:01:40,100
Do you think I'm stupid?
39
00:01:40,765 --> 00:01:42,506
Certainly twisted.
40
00:01:42,541 --> 00:01:45,998
The police would press charges regardless of your wishes,
41
00:01:46,033 --> 00:01:51,457
and besides, this is the room where the only relevant wishes are mine.
42
00:01:53,241 --> 00:01:58,052
From the first moment I saw you, do you know what I wanted to do?
43
00:01:58,403 --> 00:01:59,680
Pave my driveway?
44
00:01:59,715 --> 00:02:02,604
I wanted to suck on your right earlobe.
45
00:02:02,639 --> 00:02:07,064
I'm sure people tell you you have soft, supple lobes.
46
00:02:07,099 --> 00:02:09,016
It gets old.
47
00:02:09,365 --> 00:02:14,263
Is mocking me really an exercise of your most sound judgment, Shirley?
48
00:02:14,298 --> 00:02:18,308
After all, I do have in my possession a loaded firearm.
49
00:02:18,343 --> 00:02:19,823
Let alone a ukulele.
50
00:02:19,858 --> 00:02:21,952
I might do you harm, Shirley Schmidt.
51
00:02:21,987 --> 00:02:23,732
Do you not think I will?
52
00:02:23,767 --> 00:02:25,245
Lincoln,
53
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,761
suck my lobe.
54
00:03:01,205 --> 00:03:03,925
I'm just saying, as circumstantial cases go,
55
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,195
it's a strong one.
56
00:03:05,230 --> 00:03:10,451
Erica, there's no evidence of anybody else being there but you.
57
00:03:10,486 --> 00:03:11,693
What about her husband?
58
00:03:11,728 --> 00:03:14,028
He was there. The cameras clearly show him.
59
00:03:14,063 --> 00:03:16,003
The video also shows him
60
00:03:16,038 --> 00:03:19,959
leaving the apartment building four minutes after entering.
61
00:03:19,994 --> 00:03:21,675
Erica...
62
00:03:22,339 --> 00:03:26,592
it's not too late to amend our plea.
63
00:03:27,097 --> 00:03:28,921
You think I'm insane, don't you?
64
00:03:28,956 --> 00:03:30,746
Well, there's the 2-hour blackout...
65
00:03:30,781 --> 00:03:32,156
Caused by trauma.
66
00:03:32,191 --> 00:03:33,208
You hear voices.
67
00:03:33,243 --> 00:03:34,040
No, no, no!
68
00:03:34,041 --> 00:03:36,173
- You snap.
- Hey!
69
00:03:36,208 --> 00:03:38,306
Case in point.
70
00:03:40,957 --> 00:03:42,674
I see what you're doing.
71
00:03:42,709 --> 00:03:47,698
You're deliberately antagonizing me to see how I'll respond on cross.
72
00:03:47,733 --> 00:03:49,912
Actually, that wasn't it.
73
00:03:49,947 --> 00:03:52,091
A little help, Jerry.
74
00:03:54,958 --> 00:03:58,384
Erica, we really need to consider insanity.
75
00:03:58,419 --> 00:04:01,810
The evidence, we feel, excludes suicide.
76
00:04:01,845 --> 00:04:03,729
The only one there was you.
77
00:04:03,764 --> 00:04:06,794
We need to at least consider a diminished capacity plea,
78
00:04:06,829 --> 00:04:12,067
if for no other reason than to give us some plea-bargaining leverage.
79
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:14,911
Let's hug for luck.
80
00:04:27,255 --> 00:04:29,965
I know you two will take care of me.
81
00:04:38,018 --> 00:04:40,124
- Any thoughts?
- None.
82
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,505
Ready?
83
00:04:51,798 --> 00:04:53,040
I'm ready.
84
00:04:53,041 --> 00:04:55,528
I actually feel...
85
00:04:55,563 --> 00:04:57,469
calm.
86
00:04:57,504 --> 00:04:59,979
Of course, I'm medicated but...
87
00:05:01,124 --> 00:05:02,757
Look at me.
88
00:05:03,538 --> 00:05:07,359
This is a murder trial, Jerry, a particularly difficult one at that.
89
00:05:07,394 --> 00:05:09,576
- If at any time you feel...
- Why?
90
00:05:10,562 --> 00:05:11,453
Sorry?
91
00:05:11,488 --> 00:05:13,473
Why is it a particularly difficult one?
92
00:05:13,508 --> 00:05:17,476
Well, surely you've considered our client may be guilty.
93
00:05:17,511 --> 00:05:19,967
I don't believe that. She's innocent, Alan.
94
00:05:20,002 --> 00:05:22,303
I'm gonna win this trial.
95
00:05:34,707 --> 00:05:36,607
Everything all right, Denny?
96
00:05:36,642 --> 00:05:38,476
I'm depressed.
97
00:05:38,654 --> 00:05:39,959
Okay.
98
00:05:40,802 --> 00:05:41,636
Why?
99
00:05:41,671 --> 00:05:43,276
My murder case went away.
100
00:05:43,311 --> 00:05:45,526
You've still got yours. It just doesn't seem fair.
101
00:05:45,561 --> 00:05:47,382
Nutty Lincoln didn't whack the judge?
102
00:05:47,417 --> 00:05:48,809
I need a case, Alan.
103
00:05:48,844 --> 00:05:50,166
You'll get a case.
104
00:05:50,201 --> 00:05:54,810
This country has the most homicides of any western industrialized nation.
105
00:05:54,845 --> 00:05:55,748
Even so...
106
00:05:55,783 --> 00:05:57,753
16,000 a year, Denny.
107
00:05:57,788 --> 00:06:02,065
That's about five times the amount of American soldiers killed in Iraq.
108
00:06:02,100 --> 00:06:03,235
Sooner or later,
109
00:06:03,270 --> 00:06:06,824
one of these slaughters is gonna end up in your lap.
110
00:06:06,859 --> 00:06:08,253
Chin up!
111
00:06:11,590 --> 00:06:13,231
What do you mean that she's missing?
112
00:06:13,266 --> 00:06:15,741
Nobody's seen her since the night before last.
113
00:06:15,776 --> 00:06:17,175
Did she cancel the dinner?
114
00:06:17,210 --> 00:06:18,540
No, she just didn't show up.
115
00:06:18,575 --> 00:06:20,220
Have we thought about calling her family?
116
00:06:20,255 --> 00:06:21,866
I think it's time we started doing that.
117
00:06:21,901 --> 00:06:23,569
Let's try not to alarm them.
118
00:06:23,604 --> 00:06:25,338
Are we really sure she's missing?
119
00:06:25,373 --> 00:06:28,289
Sometimes old people just slip off to have some work done.
120
00:06:28,324 --> 00:06:31,362
It may be premature, but I'm gonna call the police.
121
00:06:32,066 --> 00:06:34,414
- We feel this was a staged suicide.
- Why?
122
00:06:34,415 --> 00:06:36,221
Well, there were rope burns on the victim's wrists
123
00:06:36,256 --> 00:06:37,630
indicating that she had been tied up.
124
00:06:37,665 --> 00:06:39,781
There was an aborted 911 call from the apartment.
125
00:06:39,816 --> 00:06:42,970
People don't generally call 911 before they hang themselves.
126
00:06:43,005 --> 00:06:44,125
Who made this call?
127
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,274
Nobody spoke. It was just a hang-up.
128
00:06:46,309 --> 00:06:48,558
We know the call came from the victim's apartment.
129
00:06:48,593 --> 00:06:52,597
Detective, what leads you to believe the defendant committed this crime?
130
00:06:52,632 --> 00:06:55,162
She claims she walked in to discover the dead body.
131
00:06:55,197 --> 00:06:58,224
Well, if so, then why did she wait two hours before calling anybody?
132
00:06:58,259 --> 00:06:59,236
What else?
133
00:06:59,271 --> 00:07:01,245
Her fingerprints were found all over the place.
134
00:07:01,280 --> 00:07:03,219
The fibers of the rope used to tie the victim up
135
00:07:03,254 --> 00:07:04,932
were found on the defendant's clothing.
136
00:07:04,967 --> 00:07:06,077
Would she have a motive?
137
00:07:06,112 --> 00:07:07,715
She and the victim were lovers.
138
00:07:07,716 --> 00:07:09,798
She had recently been dumped for another woman.
139
00:07:09,833 --> 00:07:13,127
We accounted for every person entering that apartment building.
140
00:07:13,162 --> 00:07:16,945
She's the only one who could have conceivably committed this murder.
141
00:07:17,185 --> 00:07:18,431
Thank you, sir.
142
00:07:24,651 --> 00:07:26,057
Jerry...
143
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,950
This would be your time.
144
00:07:48,286 --> 00:07:49,603
The surveillance cameras indicate
145
00:07:49,638 --> 00:07:51,879
the husband went to the victim's apartment that morning, did they not?
146
00:07:51,914 --> 00:07:53,383
There's no way he could have gone in,
147
00:07:53,418 --> 00:07:54,853
rigged a noose and hung her that quickly.
148
00:07:54,888 --> 00:07:57,358
Your testimony is it's impossible?
149
00:07:57,393 --> 00:07:58,888
Extremely unlikely.
150
00:07:58,923 --> 00:08:00,490
You mentioned there were no other fingerprints at the scene
151
00:08:00,525 --> 00:08:02,969
to suggest the husband or anybody else being present.
152
00:08:03,004 --> 00:08:06,072
In your experience, have you ever known killers to wear gloves?
153
00:08:06,107 --> 00:08:07,606
- Yes, but...
- Thank you.
154
00:08:07,641 --> 00:08:10,515
The building has a rear entrance, which is not monitored by cameras.
155
00:08:10,550 --> 00:08:11,274
Am I correct?
156
00:08:11,309 --> 00:08:12,929
- Yes, a service entrance.
- Thank you.
157
00:08:12,964 --> 00:08:15,073
As far as the people who reside in the apartment building,
158
00:08:15,108 --> 00:08:19,298
you have no way of monitoring or accounting for their activity in the complex, do you?
159
00:08:19,333 --> 00:08:20,955
- No, but we interviewed almost...
- Thank you.
160
00:08:20,990 --> 00:08:23,685
You mentioned motive. Did you consider a financial motive?
161
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:24,491
We did.
162
00:08:24,526 --> 00:08:27,328
Mrs. Wilkes left an estate valued at roughly $600,000.
163
00:08:27,363 --> 00:08:29,634
Who gets that money upon her death, if you know?
164
00:08:29,669 --> 00:08:31,905
I'm informed it's her girlfriend Renee Winger.
165
00:08:31,940 --> 00:08:35,771
Ah, yes, the new girlfriend, that...
166
00:08:37,775 --> 00:08:39,728
that...
167
00:08:40,532 --> 00:08:44,171
that woman sitting right there. She inherits.
168
00:08:44,206 --> 00:08:45,646
Can we be positive
169
00:08:45,681 --> 00:08:48,544
she did not go into the building through the service entrance...
170
00:08:48,579 --> 00:08:49,921
If she had gone into the apartment,
171
00:08:49,956 --> 00:08:51,147
your client would have been there at the time.
172
00:08:51,182 --> 00:08:53,800
Unless Ms. Winger went in before my client returned from her hike.
173
00:08:53,801 --> 00:08:56,204
Then why would your client wait two hours to call you, if...
174
00:08:56,239 --> 00:08:57,747
'Cause she suffered a traumatic blackout
175
00:08:57,782 --> 00:08:59,256
which led her into a catatonic stupor and...
176
00:08:59,291 --> 00:09:00,469
- Objection!
- Sustained.
177
00:09:00,504 --> 00:09:03,948
You connected fibers from the ropes used to tie the victim's hands to my client's clothes.
178
00:09:03,983 --> 00:09:07,653
Any fibers from the robe used to hang the victim traceable to my client?
179
00:09:07,688 --> 00:09:08,897
- No.
- Thank you.
180
00:09:08,932 --> 00:09:10,972
Going back to motive, in addition to the will,
181
00:09:11,007 --> 00:09:14,145
is there a million-dollar life insurance policy in play here?
182
00:09:14,180 --> 00:09:15,355
Yes, there is.
183
00:09:15,390 --> 00:09:17,783
- Who is the beneficiary there?
- The husband.
184
00:09:17,818 --> 00:09:20,177
So we have two people with financial motive,
185
00:09:20,212 --> 00:09:22,143
neither being my client.
186
00:09:36,053 --> 00:09:41,419
It takes more than a stiff whack on the head to keep me down, folks.
187
00:09:41,454 --> 00:09:44,516
Trust me, I get hit harder during sex.
188
00:09:44,551 --> 00:09:49,902
I'm only sorry this creepo didn't have at me with a shovel during Sweeps.
189
00:09:50,422 --> 00:09:53,458
I knew I should have plunked her a second time.
190
00:09:53,493 --> 00:09:54,848
I just knew it.
191
00:09:54,883 --> 00:09:57,432
Are you telling me you're the one who assaulted her?
192
00:09:57,467 --> 00:10:00,060
I say that in confidence, of course.
193
00:10:00,095 --> 00:10:05,190
Lincoln, why are you so determined to have people believe you're dangerous?
194
00:10:05,225 --> 00:10:07,972
You're not dangerous, are you?
195
00:10:08,849 --> 00:10:11,620
You don't think I can be violent?
196
00:10:26,846 --> 00:10:28,768
What in god's name?
197
00:10:28,803 --> 00:10:30,859
This room is my little Waco.
198
00:10:30,894 --> 00:10:33,418
If somebody should try to break in here to rescue you
199
00:10:33,453 --> 00:10:35,971
while this lock is set,
200
00:10:36,006 --> 00:10:39,671
it triggers the spring bow to go off.
201
00:10:39,706 --> 00:10:43,337
I bet now you're convinced I'm sinister.
202
00:10:44,967 --> 00:10:46,808
Lincoln...
203
00:10:46,843 --> 00:10:49,300
what are you doing?
204
00:11:01,231 --> 00:11:02,546
My apologies.
205
00:11:02,581 --> 00:11:04,478
Renee, you're looking well.
206
00:11:04,513 --> 00:11:06,340
I'm glad. It's a goal.
207
00:11:06,375 --> 00:11:10,161
Coping okay with your tragic loss?
208
00:11:10,196 --> 00:11:12,671
I see you've put me on your witness list.
209
00:11:12,706 --> 00:11:14,239
It has me flummoxed.
210
00:11:14,274 --> 00:11:17,324
I just thought by that point in the trial,
211
00:11:17,359 --> 00:11:21,393
the jury could use a good laugh, and you're funny!
212
00:11:21,657 --> 00:11:25,578
I certainly won't have anything to say that could help her.
213
00:11:28,195 --> 00:11:29,616
You check local hospitals?
214
00:11:29,651 --> 00:11:31,550
All of them, and we've called family.
215
00:11:31,585 --> 00:11:33,450
And you're thinking she was abducted?
216
00:11:33,485 --> 00:11:34,955
I don't know what to think.
217
00:11:34,990 --> 00:11:37,051
I want the police to investigate.
218
00:11:37,086 --> 00:11:39,841
It's too soon to officially declare her a missing person.
219
00:11:39,876 --> 00:11:42,596
It is not like this woman to just fall off the earth.
220
00:11:42,631 --> 00:11:44,185
Russell, something has happened.
221
00:11:44,220 --> 00:11:46,077
Can I just throw one name out there?
222
00:11:46,112 --> 00:11:47,023
Lincoln Meyer.
223
00:11:47,058 --> 00:11:47,934
Well, who is that?
224
00:11:47,935 --> 00:11:49,754
You investigated him in the murder of judge Potts.
225
00:11:49,789 --> 00:11:51,573
We considered him a possible killer of Hooper.
226
00:11:51,608 --> 00:11:53,485
He has a grudge against this law firm,
227
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,599
and he's always talking about his "special relationship" with Shirley.
228
00:11:57,634 --> 00:11:58,988
Remember what the shrink said
229
00:11:59,023 --> 00:12:01,947
when we were exploring Lincoln as Marcia Hooper's killer?
230
00:12:01,982 --> 00:12:04,908
When somebody becomes addicted to being the object of entertainment,
231
00:12:04,943 --> 00:12:07,179
which clearly Lincoln is,
232
00:12:07,214 --> 00:12:09,613
they can develop pathological desires,
233
00:12:09,648 --> 00:12:12,238
and eventually, they act on them.
234
00:12:13,938 --> 00:12:16,000
You need to eat.
235
00:12:16,035 --> 00:12:18,199
I told you, I'm not hungry.
236
00:12:18,234 --> 00:12:20,328
Here comes the airplane!
237
00:12:20,363 --> 00:12:21,930
Yeah, right. Instead of the plane,
238
00:12:21,965 --> 00:12:24,113
why don't you reach into my purse and get me my cell phone?
239
00:12:24,148 --> 00:12:27,454
Zooming in, getting closer, closer.
240
00:12:27,489 --> 00:12:29,578
Getting ready to land.
241
00:12:29,613 --> 00:12:31,668
One little bite for daddy.
242
00:12:39,970 --> 00:12:44,693
I'm not sure we can be friends after that.
243
00:12:49,675 --> 00:12:52,986
When was the last time you spoke to your wife, sir?
244
00:12:53,311 --> 00:12:55,281
The day before her death.
245
00:12:55,316 --> 00:12:57,689
Would you describe her as suicidal?
246
00:12:57,724 --> 00:12:59,278
Absolutely not.
247
00:12:59,313 --> 00:13:01,281
Paula would never have taken her own life.
248
00:13:01,316 --> 00:13:02,774
She's a devout Catholic.
249
00:13:02,809 --> 00:13:06,569
Suicide went firmly against her religious convictions.
250
00:13:06,604 --> 00:13:10,329
Wouldn't homosexuality go against her Catholic beliefs?
251
00:13:10,364 --> 00:13:12,619
Well, yes.
252
00:13:12,654 --> 00:13:15,791
Your wife was being treated for depression, was she not?
253
00:13:15,826 --> 00:13:17,668
- That is true, but I...
- Thank you.
254
00:13:17,703 --> 00:13:19,483
Did you know, Mr. Wilkes,
255
00:13:19,518 --> 00:13:24,597
that Paula had recently superseded her will to leave everything to that...
256
00:13:25,211 --> 00:13:26,833
Alan?
257
00:13:28,039 --> 00:13:29,662
That woman?
258
00:13:29,697 --> 00:13:30,784
I learned this, yes.
259
00:13:30,819 --> 00:13:34,508
Lucky there was a life insurance policy naming you as sole beneficiary.
260
00:13:34,543 --> 00:13:36,993
If you are suggesting that I could harm my wife...
261
00:13:37,028 --> 00:13:41,498
Your business recently filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy.
262
00:13:43,624 --> 00:13:48,194
Your wife's death relieves you of a dire financial situation, does it not?
263
00:13:48,229 --> 00:13:51,118
Please answer the question, sir.
264
00:13:54,599 --> 00:13:58,080
Whatever evil I may be capable of, Mr. Espenson,
265
00:13:58,115 --> 00:14:00,114
I could never harm another human being,
266
00:14:00,149 --> 00:14:03,523
especially one I spent the better part of 11 years loving.
267
00:14:04,036 --> 00:14:08,544
Your response implied that you are indeed capable of evil.
268
00:14:08,579 --> 00:14:10,960
Could you list six examples, please?
269
00:14:20,855 --> 00:14:24,986
You have been truly, truly great, Jerry.
270
00:14:25,715 --> 00:14:28,891
- Really?
- You pushed just the right amount.
271
00:14:28,926 --> 00:14:32,068
You made your point without alienating the jury.
272
00:14:32,103 --> 00:14:33,747
Brilliant!
273
00:14:39,699 --> 00:14:42,422
My feeling is we need to have Erica testify.
274
00:14:42,457 --> 00:14:43,565
It's risky,
275
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,061
but I'm not sure we have any other choice.
276
00:14:46,096 --> 00:14:48,522
Have you considered this aborted 911 call?
277
00:14:48,557 --> 00:14:49,892
How do we account for that?
278
00:14:49,927 --> 00:14:53,366
Erica, upon discovering the body, began to call 911,
279
00:14:53,401 --> 00:14:55,725
and that's when she went into the blackout.
280
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,659
That could work.
281
00:14:58,398 --> 00:15:01,365
What about Renee? Do we call her?
282
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:02,884
I think so.
283
00:15:02,919 --> 00:15:07,625
To the extent we want the jury to see her as a potential killer,
284
00:15:07,660 --> 00:15:11,545
we should expose them to her odd demeanor.
285
00:15:12,647 --> 00:15:15,410
Okay, first we'll call Erica,
286
00:15:15,445 --> 00:15:17,944
save Renee for last.
287
00:15:22,407 --> 00:15:23,703
Is...
288
00:15:25,625 --> 00:15:29,491
Jerry, what's wrong?
289
00:15:30,981 --> 00:15:32,684
Nothing.
290
00:15:32,719 --> 00:15:34,388
Jerry...
291
00:15:39,811 --> 00:15:42,836
When I was in law school,
292
00:15:43,126 --> 00:15:47,446
my dream wasn't so much the big trial as...
293
00:15:47,481 --> 00:15:51,289
well, I guess this...
294
00:15:52,329 --> 00:15:56,486
Having a drink at the end of the day with co-counsel,
295
00:15:56,521 --> 00:16:00,234
battle-weary, rehashing the day,
296
00:16:00,269 --> 00:16:02,302
discussing strategy,
297
00:16:02,337 --> 00:16:07,414
the whole socialization of lawyering that...
298
00:16:08,006 --> 00:16:12,201
well, until now, I've never experienced.
299
00:16:12,236 --> 00:16:16,396
It's a rich feeling, whatever it is.
300
00:16:18,124 --> 00:16:20,177
It's called friendship.
301
00:16:23,032 --> 00:16:25,265
To friendship, my colleague.
302
00:16:26,632 --> 00:16:29,311
Right on my balcony?
303
00:16:30,838 --> 00:16:32,230
Denny...
304
00:16:32,932 --> 00:16:34,175
it's not what you think.
305
00:16:34,210 --> 00:16:35,630
I saw you.
306
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:37,525
I heard you.
307
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,955
We were just talking.
308
00:16:46,503 --> 00:16:48,115
Oh, dear.
309
00:16:50,275 --> 00:16:53,237
Exchanging intimate thoughts?
310
00:16:53,707 --> 00:16:55,907
On my own balcony.
311
00:16:57,026 --> 00:16:59,592
I never saw it coming.
312
00:16:59,878 --> 00:17:02,071
Things have been so good between us lately.
313
00:17:02,106 --> 00:17:06,756
Well, Denny, it doesn't really sound like he was necessarily being unfaithful.
314
00:17:06,791 --> 00:17:08,140
Of all the times.
315
00:17:08,175 --> 00:17:11,195
I'm feeling vulnerable as it is over my law practice.
316
00:17:11,230 --> 00:17:13,979
You mean not getting the big cases?
317
00:17:14,014 --> 00:17:15,523
Yeah.
318
00:17:16,213 --> 00:17:18,829
I would really encourage you, Denny,
319
00:17:18,864 --> 00:17:25,059
to fill this void with something deeper, more meaningful.
320
00:17:26,041 --> 00:17:29,411
It's time to come home to Bella.
321
00:17:32,110 --> 00:17:34,209
I don't know, Bella.
322
00:17:34,466 --> 00:17:37,435
I'll let you crawl into my warm spot.
323
00:17:41,557 --> 00:17:43,850
Come home to Bella.
324
00:17:48,538 --> 00:17:50,896
If he does have her, her life could be in danger.
325
00:17:50,931 --> 00:17:52,234
I realize that,
326
00:17:52,269 --> 00:17:54,570
but I can't get a warrant just with what you're telling me.
327
00:17:54,605 --> 00:17:56,615
You could at least pay him a visit.
328
00:17:56,846 --> 00:17:57,852
We could,
329
00:17:57,887 --> 00:18:00,092
but it might be better if you guys did.
330
00:18:00,127 --> 00:18:00,975
Us?
331
00:18:00,976 --> 00:18:03,089
Well, if he loves attention as much as you're saying,
332
00:18:03,090 --> 00:18:04,478
then he might invite you in.
333
00:18:04,513 --> 00:18:06,034
And maybe you could hear or see something
334
00:18:06,069 --> 00:18:09,348
I could take to a magistrate and get a search warrant.
335
00:18:09,383 --> 00:18:10,135
Jeffrey?
336
00:18:10,170 --> 00:18:11,271
He's not gonna let me in.
337
00:18:11,272 --> 00:18:12,574
I'm Mr. Dirty mouth.
338
00:18:12,609 --> 00:18:13,978
Well, he still likes me.
339
00:18:14,013 --> 00:18:14,477
I'll go.
340
00:18:14,478 --> 00:18:15,394
Oh, now we're safe.
341
00:18:15,429 --> 00:18:16,311
What did you say?
342
00:18:16,312 --> 00:18:17,532
All right!
343
00:18:18,460 --> 00:18:20,754
Detective, we found something.
344
00:18:20,789 --> 00:18:22,411
It's a little sordid.
345
00:18:22,446 --> 00:18:23,679
What?
346
00:18:52,370 --> 00:18:53,993
You gotta be kidding.
347
00:19:03,933 --> 00:19:07,527
Claire! Braddy boy! What a surprise!
348
00:19:07,562 --> 00:19:08,917
Hello, Lincoln.
349
00:19:08,952 --> 00:19:10,237
Listen, evidently,
350
00:19:10,272 --> 00:19:13,957
the police are still asking questions about you on the judge Potts murder.
351
00:19:13,992 --> 00:19:15,388
They want another statement,
352
00:19:15,423 --> 00:19:17,477
so we thought we'd best have a little conversation.
353
00:19:17,512 --> 00:19:18,869
Uh, can we come in?
354
00:19:18,904 --> 00:19:22,203
Why didn't you call and have me come into the office?
355
00:19:22,238 --> 00:19:26,620
Well, we thought we'd just head right over.
356
00:19:26,655 --> 00:19:28,424
I don't believe you.
357
00:19:28,459 --> 00:19:30,193
Can we come in, Lincoln?
358
00:19:30,228 --> 00:19:31,240
No.
359
00:19:37,681 --> 00:19:39,654
I walked through the door.
360
00:19:40,385 --> 00:19:42,579
I saw her hanging.
361
00:19:43,245 --> 00:19:45,312
She was dead?
362
00:19:45,347 --> 00:19:48,052
Her hands were tied behind her back.
363
00:19:48,087 --> 00:19:50,757
I got on a chair and cut the rope off.
364
00:19:50,792 --> 00:19:53,010
I couldn't reach the noose part.
365
00:19:53,045 --> 00:19:55,199
That's the last thing I remember, actually,
366
00:19:55,234 --> 00:19:59,078
trying to reach up and cut the rope around her neck.
367
00:19:59,113 --> 00:20:01,434
And then what happened?
368
00:20:01,469 --> 00:20:03,756
The next thing, it was...
369
00:20:04,130 --> 00:20:07,248
two hours later. That's when I called for help.
370
00:20:07,283 --> 00:20:11,141
You have no memory of those two hours?
371
00:20:11,176 --> 00:20:13,871
I've been treated for a psychiatric disorder.
372
00:20:13,906 --> 00:20:16,929
I've had some blackouts on occasion.
373
00:20:16,964 --> 00:20:19,953
When you say you called for help,
374
00:20:19,988 --> 00:20:21,508
you mean you called your lawyer?
375
00:20:21,543 --> 00:20:22,160
Yes.
376
00:20:22,161 --> 00:20:23,594
Why didn't you call the police?
377
00:20:23,629 --> 00:20:25,552
I suppose I was afraid,
378
00:20:25,587 --> 00:20:28,596
especially since I had no memory of the previous two hours.
379
00:20:28,631 --> 00:20:30,108
What were you afraid of?
380
00:20:30,143 --> 00:20:33,456
That maybe you had killed Paula Wilkes?
381
00:20:33,491 --> 00:20:36,770
She left you for that woman, Renee Winger.
382
00:20:36,805 --> 00:20:37,997
Yes.
383
00:20:38,032 --> 00:20:42,692
Did you go to confront Renee Winger two nights before Ms. Wilkes' death?
384
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:45,387
I, I beg your pardon?
385
00:20:45,422 --> 00:20:48,647
Ms. Winger says you confronted her in a hotel lounge
386
00:20:48,682 --> 00:20:50,458
and started screaming at her.
387
00:20:50,493 --> 00:20:52,200
Many people witnessed this.
388
00:20:52,235 --> 00:20:57,384
You told her she'd regret it if she continued to see Paula Wilkes.
389
00:20:57,419 --> 00:20:59,763
I have no memory of that.
390
00:20:59,798 --> 00:21:02,108
You have no memory of that?
391
00:21:02,143 --> 00:21:03,891
No. I...
392
00:21:03,926 --> 00:21:05,639
I swear.
393
00:21:07,470 --> 00:21:09,029
I swear.
394
00:21:13,126 --> 00:21:15,337
I hope they don't go running to the police.
395
00:21:15,372 --> 00:21:17,549
I would hate to have the police barge in here
396
00:21:17,584 --> 00:21:19,653
while my spring bow is cocked.
397
00:21:19,688 --> 00:21:21,722
I mean, somebody could get hurt.
398
00:21:23,215 --> 00:21:24,905
Lincoln...
399
00:21:25,130 --> 00:21:28,072
I have one question for you.
400
00:21:29,071 --> 00:21:31,079
Why?
401
00:21:31,114 --> 00:21:35,027
You've lived your whole life within the bounds of the law, Lincoln.
402
00:21:35,062 --> 00:21:40,191
Now you display a desperation that...
403
00:21:41,056 --> 00:21:43,575
What's happened in your life, Lincoln?
404
00:21:43,610 --> 00:21:46,095
Well, this whole global warming thing...
405
00:21:46,130 --> 00:21:48,550
Was it Marcia Hooper?
406
00:21:52,856 --> 00:21:55,915
You were in love with her, weren't you?
407
00:21:56,314 --> 00:21:58,084
I think it's hard for you to live without her.
408
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,507
I don't need Marcia Hooper.
409
00:22:00,542 --> 00:22:03,873
I have you, Shirley.
410
00:22:13,698 --> 00:22:16,319
She really did like me.
411
00:22:17,661 --> 00:22:21,530
Her husband made her get that restraining order.
412
00:22:22,231 --> 00:22:24,791
She was kind to me.
413
00:22:26,235 --> 00:22:28,575
She liked me.
414
00:22:32,325 --> 00:22:33,953
We...
415
00:22:33,988 --> 00:22:38,248
we all live our lives out on a ledge, Lincoln.
416
00:22:38,283 --> 00:22:42,508
It takes surprisingly little to push us over.
417
00:22:42,543 --> 00:22:46,217
This was a devastating tragedy for you, losing her.
418
00:22:46,252 --> 00:22:49,892
Add to that, people denying your relationship...
419
00:22:49,927 --> 00:22:53,423
I don't want to talk about it anymore.
420
00:22:57,959 --> 00:22:59,997
Lincoln, how does this end?
421
00:23:00,032 --> 00:23:01,650
I don't know.
422
00:23:03,668 --> 00:23:07,148
I never meant to harm you when I took you, Shirley.
423
00:23:07,183 --> 00:23:09,426
Of course I didn't.
424
00:23:11,096 --> 00:23:15,973
But I suppose I've painted myself into a bit of a corner.
425
00:23:20,049 --> 00:23:22,960
If this is a game, Lincoln,
426
00:23:23,579 --> 00:23:25,536
you win.
427
00:23:27,628 --> 00:23:29,276
I'm afraid.
428
00:23:33,877 --> 00:23:36,559
Maybe she doesn't remember doing it,
429
00:23:36,594 --> 00:23:39,129
but what other possible explanation could there be?
430
00:23:39,164 --> 00:23:42,276
Maybe Renee somehow got in the building without being detected.
431
00:23:42,311 --> 00:23:44,983
Maybe the husband did it inside of four minutes.
432
00:23:45,018 --> 00:23:47,656
Maybe somebody else who lived in the building.
433
00:23:47,691 --> 00:23:51,905
Alan, I'm like a human polygraph.
434
00:23:51,940 --> 00:23:54,028
I can sense the truth.
435
00:23:54,063 --> 00:23:58,023
Erica's telling the truth when she says it's not in her to commit murder.
436
00:23:58,058 --> 00:24:00,352
Renee is not a truthful person.
437
00:24:00,387 --> 00:24:03,696
And the husband, he is a truthful person,
438
00:24:03,731 --> 00:24:05,798
but there's something...
439
00:24:05,833 --> 00:24:10,070
well, I, I don't think he's being entirely truthful here.
440
00:24:10,938 --> 00:24:13,345
You're a human polygraph?
441
00:24:13,380 --> 00:24:14,749
I never knew this.
442
00:24:14,784 --> 00:24:19,045
It's one of the reasons why I so implicitly and immediately trusted you.
443
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,585
I was drawn to your honesty.
444
00:24:22,219 --> 00:24:27,266
Jerry, I think one of the reasons I'm drawn to you...
445
00:24:33,107 --> 00:24:34,767
Oh, dear.
446
00:24:46,863 --> 00:24:48,708
Don't talk to me.
447
00:24:48,743 --> 00:24:50,455
It's not like I went fishing with him.
448
00:24:50,490 --> 00:24:52,249
And don't make fun of me.
449
00:24:57,242 --> 00:24:59,306
I don't know whether you know this,
450
00:24:59,341 --> 00:25:05,955
not many men take the time every day to...
451
00:25:06,345 --> 00:25:09,544
have a cigar, a glass of scotch,
452
00:25:09,579 --> 00:25:12,708
to talk to their best friend.
453
00:25:12,743 --> 00:25:16,228
That's not something most men have.
454
00:25:16,486 --> 00:25:18,457
No, it isn't.
455
00:25:24,893 --> 00:25:28,105
What I give to you, what, what I share,
456
00:25:28,140 --> 00:25:29,538
I do with no one else.
457
00:25:29,573 --> 00:25:31,225
I like to think what you give to me,
458
00:25:31,260 --> 00:25:32,579
you do with nobody else.
459
00:25:32,614 --> 00:25:34,806
Now that, that may sound silly to you,
460
00:25:34,841 --> 00:25:36,963
but here's what I think is silly...
461
00:25:36,998 --> 00:25:44,026
the idea that jealousy or fidelity is reserved for romance.
462
00:25:44,061 --> 00:25:49,475
I always suspected that there was a connection between you and that man,
463
00:25:49,510 --> 00:25:54,507
that you got something you didn't get from me.
464
00:25:55,995 --> 00:25:58,640
I probably do.
465
00:26:00,507 --> 00:26:02,717
But, gosh...
466
00:26:02,752 --> 00:26:05,850
What I get from you, Denny...
467
00:26:13,187 --> 00:26:17,886
People walk around today calling everyone their best friend.
468
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:25,280
The term doesn't have any real meaning anymore.
469
00:26:25,315 --> 00:26:27,315
Mere acquaintances are lavished
470
00:26:27,350 --> 00:26:31,752
with hugs and kisses upon a second or at most third meeting.
471
00:26:31,787 --> 00:26:35,297
Birthday cards get passed around offices
472
00:26:35,332 --> 00:26:39,764
so everybody can scribble a snippet of sentimentality
473
00:26:39,799 --> 00:26:43,556
for a colleague they've barely met.
474
00:26:43,591 --> 00:26:47,314
And everyone just loves everyone.
475
00:26:47,349 --> 00:26:52,715
As a result, when you tell somebody you love them today...
476
00:26:53,490 --> 00:26:56,231
it isn't much heard.
477
00:26:58,268 --> 00:27:00,343
I love you, Denny.
478
00:27:02,714 --> 00:27:05,240
You are my best friend.
479
00:27:06,537 --> 00:27:13,665
I can't imagine going through life without you...
480
00:27:14,065 --> 00:27:17,211
as my best friend.
481
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,629
I'm not gonna kiss you, however.
482
00:27:33,406 --> 00:27:37,294
I don't want you on my balcony, on any balcony...
483
00:27:37,329 --> 00:27:40,351
alone with that man.
484
00:27:41,694 --> 00:27:43,317
Okay.
485
00:27:58,798 --> 00:28:00,988
Deja vu.
486
00:28:01,023 --> 00:28:02,549
That's French.
487
00:28:02,584 --> 00:28:04,812
All set for your testimony, Renee?
488
00:28:04,847 --> 00:28:06,174
I'm nervous.
489
00:28:06,209 --> 00:28:09,241
I'm not as funny when I nervous.
490
00:28:10,215 --> 00:28:12,023
Let's cut to it, Ms. Winger.
491
00:28:12,058 --> 00:28:17,361
You and the decedent, Paula Wilkes were involved romantically?
492
00:28:17,396 --> 00:28:18,538
Yes.
493
00:28:18,573 --> 00:28:21,224
We'd met about a month prior to her death.
494
00:28:21,259 --> 00:28:26,998
We began dating, and it quickly became exclusive.
495
00:28:28,243 --> 00:28:30,784
Well, uh, by, when you say, "exclusive,"
496
00:28:30,819 --> 00:28:33,291
that's understating it a bit, isn't it?
497
00:28:33,326 --> 00:28:36,598
I don't know. It certainly escalated quickly.
498
00:28:36,633 --> 00:28:39,479
Whether it would have sustained is hard to say.
499
00:28:39,514 --> 00:28:42,425
She died so early in the relationship.
500
00:28:42,460 --> 00:28:45,049
Well, she must have thought it would sustain.
501
00:28:45,084 --> 00:28:50,687
After all, she redid her will rather suddenly in her own handwriting,
502
00:28:50,722 --> 00:28:52,812
leaving everything to you.
503
00:28:52,847 --> 00:28:56,330
Um, I'm a little embarrassed about that.
504
00:28:56,365 --> 00:28:59,813
We were in Las Vegas. We were, I guess,
505
00:28:59,848 --> 00:29:05,355
in the throes of new love where people can be prone to doing crazy things.
506
00:29:05,390 --> 00:29:09,339
And a month later, she shockingly turns up dead, hanged.
507
00:29:09,374 --> 00:29:14,759
Mr. Shore, I'm very happy to answer your questions, but
508
00:29:14,794 --> 00:29:19,913
I would appreciate it if you'd be a little less flippant about Paula's death.
509
00:29:24,428 --> 00:29:27,273
Ms. Winger, I'm so, I, it...
510
00:29:27,308 --> 00:29:33,876
I, I can't help but notice your demeanor seems remarkably different today
511
00:29:33,911 --> 00:29:37,692
than in all my prior encounters with you.
512
00:29:37,727 --> 00:29:40,591
Well, I... I guess I'm...
513
00:29:40,626 --> 00:29:43,844
I'm a little nervous to be in court.
514
00:29:47,743 --> 00:29:49,993
I don't think she came off a killer.
515
00:29:50,028 --> 00:29:51,215
I'm going to prison.
516
00:29:51,250 --> 00:29:53,039
Blessed are the merciful for they are...
517
00:29:53,074 --> 00:29:54,828
Erica, she didn't really hurt our case here.
518
00:29:54,863 --> 00:29:56,794
She said nothing to incriminate you.
519
00:29:56,829 --> 00:29:58,691
We just lost her as a red herring.
520
00:29:58,726 --> 00:30:00,775
Do we even have anything else to offer?
521
00:30:00,810 --> 00:30:04,367
Well, just one of my overwritten closing arguments,
522
00:30:04,402 --> 00:30:07,372
but they've been known to work in the past.
523
00:30:08,929 --> 00:30:10,192
Was that helpful?
524
00:30:10,227 --> 00:30:12,565
That was quite a performance, Renee.
525
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,976
Maybe that was the real me,
526
00:30:15,011 --> 00:30:18,404
and all this time I've been performing with you.
527
00:30:27,616 --> 00:30:29,409
Any thoughts?
528
00:30:29,668 --> 00:30:30,826
None.
529
00:30:31,029 --> 00:30:33,088
He's got her. I can feel it. She's in that house.
530
00:30:33,123 --> 00:30:34,762
Yeah, he practically baited us.
531
00:30:34,797 --> 00:30:36,718
I say we just charge in there, police or no police.
532
00:30:36,753 --> 00:30:37,491
I can do it.
533
00:30:37,526 --> 00:30:39,729
Brad, the last time you did that, you chopped off a priest's fingers.
534
00:30:39,764 --> 00:30:41,414
We are not trained to storm.
535
00:30:41,449 --> 00:30:43,029
I was a marine! I'm trained.
536
00:30:43,064 --> 00:30:45,663
I'm practically a navy SEAL, and I saw that.
537
00:30:45,698 --> 00:30:49,313
Did the detectives say what it would take to satisfy reasonable suspicion?
538
00:30:49,348 --> 00:30:50,953
Something more than a hunch,
539
00:30:50,988 --> 00:30:53,824
which is, let's face it, all we have.
540
00:30:53,859 --> 00:30:55,349
What's going on, a party?
541
00:30:55,384 --> 00:30:57,818
This is not a time for your nonsense, okay, sport?
542
00:30:57,853 --> 00:31:00,387
Typically, you're a fan of my nonsense, Brad.
543
00:31:00,422 --> 00:31:01,353
What's the matter?
544
00:31:01,388 --> 00:31:03,060
We think that Lincoln has kidnapped Shirley.
545
00:31:03,095 --> 00:31:04,568
At least, we think it's possible.
546
00:31:04,603 --> 00:31:06,741
- What?
- He may have her in his house.
547
00:31:06,776 --> 00:31:08,879
Well, why don't the police just go get her?
548
00:31:08,914 --> 00:31:10,917
Because we don't have anything to go on,
549
00:31:10,952 --> 00:31:13,674
and the police can't get a warrant.
550
00:31:15,721 --> 00:31:18,872
Well, Lincoln told me in a phone call he did have Shirley.
551
00:31:18,907 --> 00:31:20,277
I'll say as much in an affidavit.
552
00:31:20,312 --> 00:31:22,998
You'll take it to the police and get your warrant.
553
00:31:25,500 --> 00:31:27,156
I'll go have that phone call now.
554
00:31:27,191 --> 00:31:29,919
You'll have my sworn statement in a minute.
555
00:31:41,462 --> 00:31:45,477
He just told this Alan Shore he had Ms. Schmidt?
556
00:31:45,512 --> 00:31:47,060
Apparently.
557
00:31:49,535 --> 00:31:54,371
Let's assume a mistake is going to be made here, Russell.
558
00:31:54,406 --> 00:31:57,552
Which side do you want to err on?
559
00:32:01,106 --> 00:32:03,896
Okay, let's go see the magistrate.
560
00:32:28,121 --> 00:32:29,991
Jerry, what's wrong?
561
00:32:30,026 --> 00:32:33,682
I was going through the life insurance policy in my typical meticulous fashion,
562
00:32:33,717 --> 00:32:36,023
and look what I found in the fine print.
563
00:32:36,058 --> 00:32:37,112
I highlighted it.
564
00:32:37,147 --> 00:32:39,289
Okay, Mr. Beedle, we'll hear your summation.
565
00:32:39,324 --> 00:32:42,178
Actually, your honor, the defense would like to call one last witness.
566
00:32:42,213 --> 00:32:43,285
You said you rested.
567
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:44,498
We don't.
568
00:32:44,499 --> 00:32:47,508
The defense would like to recall Sean Wilkes.
569
00:33:00,691 --> 00:33:05,332
Mr. Wilkes, you've met my colleague Jerry Espenson, have you not?
570
00:33:05,367 --> 00:33:06,991
I have.
571
00:33:07,026 --> 00:33:10,942
Jerry, it turns out, is a human polygraph.
572
00:33:10,977 --> 00:33:14,305
He has a nose for who's telling the truth
573
00:33:14,340 --> 00:33:17,634
and for who's a truthful person in general.
574
00:33:17,669 --> 00:33:18,702
And the thing is,
575
00:33:18,737 --> 00:33:23,470
you struck him as one of those generally truthful people
576
00:33:23,505 --> 00:33:25,232
who's not telling the truth here.
577
00:33:25,267 --> 00:33:27,183
Objection. Does counsel have a question?
578
00:33:27,218 --> 00:33:28,440
My question is,
579
00:33:28,475 --> 00:33:32,521
have you been honest with this court, Mr. Wilkes?
580
00:33:32,556 --> 00:33:33,499
Yes.
581
00:33:33,534 --> 00:33:37,610
Paula Wilkes' life insurance policy, for which you are the sole beneficiary,
582
00:33:37,645 --> 00:33:40,035
has a settlement value of $1 million.
583
00:33:40,070 --> 00:33:46,032
Are there any exclusions under your late wife's policy, sir?
584
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,989
Uh, I think there are certain exclusions, yes.
585
00:33:50,024 --> 00:33:53,101
One being suicide. The policy doesn't cover suicide.
586
00:33:53,136 --> 00:33:56,933
It says right here, uh, highlighted in yellow.
587
00:34:01,552 --> 00:34:06,263
I am sure it must have been...
588
00:34:07,106 --> 00:34:10,577
an unimaginable shock
589
00:34:10,612 --> 00:34:16,305
when you entered Paula's apartment to see her hanging there.
590
00:34:17,598 --> 00:34:23,047
And as you picked up the phone and dialed 911,
591
00:34:23,082 --> 00:34:25,479
another shocking reality hit you,
592
00:34:25,514 --> 00:34:30,134
one with crippling monetary consequences.
593
00:34:30,602 --> 00:34:33,387
It was you who aborted the 911 call,
594
00:34:33,422 --> 00:34:36,172
and then you did something foolish.
595
00:34:36,207 --> 00:34:41,021
You tried to make her tragic death look like a murder.
596
00:34:42,261 --> 00:34:46,896
I'm sure charges of perjury are swirling around in your head about now.
597
00:34:46,931 --> 00:34:48,984
Fortunately, by law,
598
00:34:49,019 --> 00:34:53,154
if a witness retakes the stand and corrects his false statements,
599
00:34:53,189 --> 00:34:54,734
he can avoid those charges.
600
00:34:54,769 --> 00:35:00,125
So here's your chance, Mr. Wilkes, to set the record straight.
601
00:35:01,977 --> 00:35:04,352
Did you go into that apartment,
602
00:35:04,387 --> 00:35:07,551
discover that your ex-wife had committed suicide
603
00:35:07,586 --> 00:35:11,283
and proceed to tie her hands, move a chair,
604
00:35:11,318 --> 00:35:18,251
do whatever was necessary to make it look like somebody had killed her?
605
00:35:30,271 --> 00:35:32,537
I was in shock.
606
00:35:34,661 --> 00:35:37,357
I wasn't thinking clearly.
607
00:35:41,847 --> 00:35:44,019
I'm so sorry.
608
00:35:45,976 --> 00:35:48,190
Your honor, the defense rests.
609
00:35:48,740 --> 00:35:50,590
Mr. Wilkes, you may step down.
610
00:35:50,625 --> 00:35:53,297
The bailiff will remand the witness into custody.
611
00:35:53,332 --> 00:35:57,642
At this time I'm dismissing the charges against Ms. Erica Dolenz.
612
00:35:57,677 --> 00:35:59,611
The defendant is free to go.
613
00:36:00,878 --> 00:36:02,026
Oh, my god!
614
00:36:02,061 --> 00:36:03,549
Jerry, you realize what you've done?
615
00:36:03,584 --> 00:36:06,788
You've secured the freedom of an innocent person.
616
00:36:10,567 --> 00:36:12,878
Let's hope Denny doesn't walk in.
617
00:36:27,654 --> 00:36:29,244
Hey, may I join?
618
00:36:29,279 --> 00:36:30,834
I'm sorry, no.
619
00:36:31,064 --> 00:36:33,957
Why don't you tell him you were practically a navy SEAL?
620
00:36:35,772 --> 00:36:40,235
Want a plane that loops the loop
621
00:36:40,270 --> 00:36:44,664
Me, I want a hula hoop
622
00:36:44,699 --> 00:36:48,993
We can hardly stand the wait
623
00:36:49,028 --> 00:36:52,600
Please, Christmas, don't be late
624
00:36:56,744 --> 00:36:59,325
Aren't you going to answer it?
625
00:37:14,461 --> 00:37:16,689
Your little friends called the police.
626
00:37:16,724 --> 00:37:18,575
- That was a mistake!
- Lincoln...
627
00:37:18,610 --> 00:37:20,426
They've escalated the situation
628
00:37:20,461 --> 00:37:23,144
before I had a chance to work out my exit plan.
629
00:37:32,019 --> 00:37:33,272
Lincoln, I can hear them.
630
00:37:33,307 --> 00:37:35,112
They're going through the entire house.
631
00:37:35,147 --> 00:37:37,943
From the outside, this room looks like a pantry.
632
00:37:37,978 --> 00:37:41,850
It's a locked room in a basement! You think they'll skip it?
633
00:37:47,726 --> 00:37:49,488
- Lincoln...
- Shut up!
634
00:37:49,523 --> 00:37:51,250
There's no way out of here.
635
00:37:51,775 --> 00:37:54,073
They're right outside the door, Lincoln.
636
00:37:54,108 --> 00:37:56,371
Wait a minute, this room isn't soundproof.
637
00:37:56,406 --> 00:37:58,316
Help! Help!
638
00:37:58,351 --> 00:38:02,674
Hey, one more scream like that, and I will shoot you dead!
639
00:38:10,224 --> 00:38:11,989
Someone's down!
640
00:38:13,233 --> 00:38:14,900
Room secured!
641
00:38:16,256 --> 00:38:17,534
There she is.
642
00:38:19,255 --> 00:38:20,846
Before you all start hugging me,
643
00:38:20,881 --> 00:38:24,280
did any of you have the presence of mind to bring vodka?
644
00:38:24,315 --> 00:38:27,672
A little antiseptic, a band-aid.
645
00:38:27,707 --> 00:38:30,851
It's just a flesh wound.
646
00:38:34,427 --> 00:38:35,783
So she's all right?
647
00:38:35,818 --> 00:38:37,937
Completely. She wouldn't even go to the hospital.
648
00:38:37,972 --> 00:38:39,902
Oh, thank goodness.
649
00:38:39,937 --> 00:38:42,094
Thank you for telling me, Denise.
650
00:38:42,129 --> 00:38:43,489
Sure.
651
00:38:44,796 --> 00:38:46,490
Denise...
652
00:38:47,246 --> 00:38:50,536
it's news worth celebrating, don't you think?
653
00:38:50,571 --> 00:38:51,956
Don't you ever give up?
654
00:38:51,991 --> 00:38:53,622
I do, actually.
655
00:38:53,657 --> 00:38:58,192
It's just, you don't really want me to.
656
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,100
I must say, Denise, when I look at you,
657
00:39:01,135 --> 00:39:07,377
I see one of those little catholic schoolgirls running around in her plaid skirt,
658
00:39:07,412 --> 00:39:10,990
always to class on time, the first to raise her hand,
659
00:39:11,025 --> 00:39:14,663
the neatest of penmanship.
660
00:39:14,698 --> 00:39:18,149
And then when I look closer, I see...
661
00:39:18,184 --> 00:39:19,896
Shirley.
662
00:39:19,931 --> 00:39:22,747
Well, I'm glad to see things haven't changed here.
663
00:39:22,782 --> 00:39:24,624
Shirley, are you okay?
664
00:39:24,659 --> 00:39:26,597
I am. Thank you.
665
00:39:26,632 --> 00:39:31,002
Lincoln was actually a very charming host when he wasn't threatening to kill me.
666
00:39:31,037 --> 00:39:35,161
Alan, it's been brought to my attention that
667
00:39:35,196 --> 00:39:38,847
you falsified an affidavit and committed a fraud on the magistrate.
668
00:39:38,882 --> 00:39:39,848
Did I?
669
00:39:39,883 --> 00:39:43,577
As senior partner, I cannot tolerate this kind of behavior,
670
00:39:43,612 --> 00:39:45,577
and if it happens again,
671
00:39:45,612 --> 00:39:47,484
you will be fired.
672
00:39:47,519 --> 00:39:49,383
No doubt.
673
00:39:50,402 --> 00:39:52,206
Thank you.
674
00:39:52,429 --> 00:39:55,669
You very likely saved my life.
675
00:39:55,953 --> 00:39:57,664
I must say, Shirley,
676
00:39:57,699 --> 00:39:59,340
when I look at you,
677
00:39:59,375 --> 00:40:02,845
I see one of those little catholic schoolgirls...
678
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,376
Oh, get a life!
679
00:40:16,537 --> 00:40:18,904
I'll sleep with her one day.
680
00:40:20,237 --> 00:40:21,775
No, you won't.
681
00:40:24,034 --> 00:40:28,598
You know, the brain supposedly confuses fear with passion.
682
00:40:28,633 --> 00:40:32,129
She should be ripe with passion, for god's sake.
683
00:40:32,410 --> 00:40:34,305
Denny, what ever happened to that doll?
684
00:40:34,340 --> 00:40:36,165
The police took her in for questioning.
685
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:37,964
Shirley Schmidtho?
686
00:40:37,999 --> 00:40:39,728
Yeah. She'll be back.
687
00:40:40,727 --> 00:40:42,496
Alan...
688
00:40:43,325 --> 00:40:45,608
I'm sorry I doubted your feelings.
689
00:40:45,643 --> 00:40:51,080
It was just seeing you on the balcony with that man.
690
00:40:51,469 --> 00:40:56,048
Alan, what is it about out here?
691
00:40:57,667 --> 00:41:02,774
We're out on a ledge, 14 floors to a spectacular death.
692
00:41:02,809 --> 00:41:07,934
It probably gives us a sense of our mortality, which in turn...
693
00:41:08,448 --> 00:41:11,627
there's nothing so life-affirming, I suppose,
694
00:41:11,662 --> 00:41:16,601
as a little death tucked in the back of our mind.
695
00:41:16,636 --> 00:41:21,541
When I die, I want my remains sprinkled off of here.
696
00:41:22,962 --> 00:41:24,703
- You?
- The balcony?
697
00:41:24,738 --> 00:41:27,482
Could there be any place more fitting?
698
00:41:28,124 --> 00:41:30,281
I suppose not.
699
00:41:32,019 --> 00:41:34,716
But since I don't want to be cremated,
700
00:41:34,751 --> 00:41:39,040
somebody should at least yell, "look out below."
701
00:41:39,961 --> 00:41:43,324
Ah, the simple pleasures.
702
00:41:44,415 --> 00:41:48,992
A clear night, scotch, a friend...
703
00:41:49,218 --> 00:41:52,081
Even if he is high-maintenance.
704
00:41:58,172 --> 00:42:00,397
To simple pleasures.
