Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,741 --> 00:00:03,873
So this is what you do?
2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:05,483
I break up with you
and you commit..
3
00:00:05,570 --> 00:00:07,224
I don't even know what this is
you're committing.
4
00:00:07,311 --> 00:00:08,356
I switched jobs.
5
00:00:08,443 --> 00:00:09,618
Go get your real job back
6
00:00:09,705 --> 00:00:10,619
before it's too late.
7
00:00:10,706 --> 00:00:12,186
This is my real job.
8
00:00:12,273 --> 00:00:13,665
I'm Tommy Jefferson, kid,
I chew lawyers up
9
00:00:13,752 --> 00:00:15,189
and spit 'em out.
10
00:00:15,276 --> 00:00:17,017
He's gonna treat you
like you don't exist.
11
00:00:17,104 --> 00:00:19,367
Your best bet is just
interrupt him at every turn.
12
00:00:19,454 --> 00:00:21,456
He's got a temper and he's been
known to completely blow.
13
00:00:21,543 --> 00:00:23,501
- You little snot!
- Don't call me little!
14
00:00:23,588 --> 00:00:25,416
- You were rude to me.
- You ridiculed me.
15
00:00:25,503 --> 00:00:28,202
Nobody does that.
You're nothing, little bug.
16
00:00:28,289 --> 00:00:30,726
Will you represent me?
I'm facing prison.
17
00:00:30,813 --> 00:00:32,597
I got arrested on a drug charge.
18
00:00:32,684 --> 00:00:36,427
Third offense, and,
uh...I got a cocaine problem.
19
00:00:36,514 --> 00:00:38,212
Your old life
was that of a drug addict.
20
00:00:38,299 --> 00:00:40,431
'You have to turn your
back on that, all of it.'
21
00:00:40,518 --> 00:00:42,477
If you need to talk to us,
we're all here.
22
00:00:42,564 --> 00:00:44,827
She's really working
in that neighborhood?
23
00:00:44,914 --> 00:00:46,916
Police don't really respond
24
00:00:47,003 --> 00:00:48,526
to alarms
in this neighborhood.
25
00:00:48,613 --> 00:00:50,963
The merchants
tend to be burglarized
26
00:00:51,051 --> 00:00:52,965
and vandalized
at an alarming rate.
27
00:00:53,053 --> 00:00:55,011
You protect me and my place
28
00:00:55,098 --> 00:00:56,926
my law firm will defend you
for free.
29
00:00:59,755 --> 00:01:02,975
I think I became terminal
in my late 40s.
30
00:01:03,063 --> 00:01:04,977
Nothing the doctors could find
31
00:01:05,065 --> 00:01:07,502
you couldn't see it
on an X-ray.
32
00:01:07,589 --> 00:01:09,895
But I was dying.
33
00:01:09,982 --> 00:01:14,596
Being put to death quietly,
systemically, by routine.
34
00:01:14,683 --> 00:01:16,554
I finally died last year.
35
00:01:19,209 --> 00:01:21,168
You need to close up shop
for a couple days.
36
00:01:21,255 --> 00:01:22,821
What? Why?
37
00:01:22,908 --> 00:01:24,780
Couple of local gangs
are beefin' with each other
38
00:01:24,867 --> 00:01:27,217
know what I'm saying?
Might be some bullets flying..
39
00:01:27,304 --> 00:01:29,393
'And it'd be better
if y'all weren't around.'
40
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,875
- Shooting? Like, at us?
- What gangs?
41
00:01:32,962 --> 00:01:34,920
Linkwood Crew's one,
and Boone Park's the other.
42
00:01:35,007 --> 00:01:36,618
Well, what is this beef about?
43
00:01:36,705 --> 00:01:38,054
What the hell is going on here?
44
00:01:38,141 --> 00:01:39,925
Told you all I know, sugar.
45
00:01:40,012 --> 00:01:42,667
Well, who told you?
46
00:01:42,754 --> 00:01:44,582
See, it's like this,
see, Dewayne
47
00:01:44,669 --> 00:01:46,280
he runs with Linkwood crew.
48
00:01:46,367 --> 00:01:48,543
Got this girl named Shonda,
they broke up.
49
00:01:48,630 --> 00:01:51,285
So Dewayne finds out that
Shonda's hanging with C.K.
50
00:01:51,372 --> 00:01:53,809
- C.K., he runs with my boys.
- That's Boone Park?
51
00:01:53,896 --> 00:01:56,203
Yeah, so Dewayne,
he goes and get his boys
52
00:01:56,290 --> 00:01:58,118
and they go and torch
C.K.'s ride.
53
00:01:58,205 --> 00:02:00,250
C.K. was, like, "Man, I'm gonna
need 12 grand for that."
54
00:02:00,337 --> 00:02:01,556
'Dewayne be, like, "No."'
55
00:02:01,643 --> 00:02:04,167
So now Linkwood is
beefing with us.
56
00:02:04,254 --> 00:02:05,473
It's gonna get bad.
57
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,214
- Is Dewayne gonna hurt Shonda?
- Naw.
58
00:02:07,301 --> 00:02:10,130
He-he don't give a..
Naw, he got a new girl.
59
00:02:10,217 --> 00:02:11,740
Ain't even about the girl
no more.
60
00:02:11,827 --> 00:02:13,133
It's about respect.
61
00:02:17,137 --> 00:02:19,182
I gotta go.
Thanks for the ice cream.
62
00:02:19,269 --> 00:02:21,228
It's true,
you really got him into college?
63
00:02:21,315 --> 00:02:23,752
I did not.
He got into college himself.
64
00:02:23,839 --> 00:02:25,362
Uh-huh.
65
00:02:27,625 --> 00:02:30,280
So two gangs have a ridiculous
minor property dispute
66
00:02:30,367 --> 00:02:33,022
like this one,
they start shooting?
67
00:02:33,109 --> 00:02:36,634
Not always. They got this thing
here called street advocates.
68
00:02:36,721 --> 00:02:38,680
They try to fix situations
like this.
69
00:02:38,767 --> 00:02:40,812
There was a street advocate
assigned to this area
70
00:02:40,899 --> 00:02:43,554
but...he dead now.
71
00:02:43,641 --> 00:02:46,688
- Did they kill him?
- Allergy. Man ate a bad peanut.
72
00:02:46,775 --> 00:02:48,472
But dead is dead,
you know what I'm sayin'?
73
00:02:48,559 --> 00:02:51,736
So we, like, between mediators.
74
00:02:51,823 --> 00:02:56,045
Alright. As of right now,
they have a new mediator...me.
75
00:02:56,132 --> 00:02:57,829
I don't think
they gonna go for that.
76
00:02:57,916 --> 00:02:59,918
Well, you don't know
till you ask them.
77
00:03:00,005 --> 00:03:03,095
Naw, see, some things
you do know before you ask.
78
00:03:03,183 --> 00:03:04,706
Well, put it to them like this
79
00:03:04,793 --> 00:03:06,490
I'm gonna be sitting in front
of my store window
80
00:03:06,577 --> 00:03:08,492
with my .44 in my lap.
81
00:03:08,579 --> 00:03:10,102
If someone starts shooting
at anybody
82
00:03:10,190 --> 00:03:12,104
I'll consider it
directed at me.
83
00:03:12,192 --> 00:03:13,802
I'm gonna shoot back.
84
00:03:13,889 --> 00:03:15,891
So these beefing gangsters
are gonna get
85
00:03:15,978 --> 00:03:19,024
their asses shot up, or they're
gonna murder an old white lady
86
00:03:19,111 --> 00:03:21,375
with lots of friends
in the criminal justice system
87
00:03:21,462 --> 00:03:24,204
friends who will insist on the
death penalty for the shooter
88
00:03:24,291 --> 00:03:27,555
and his accomplices because
I am one adorable mother--
89
00:03:27,642 --> 00:03:29,557
Harry!
90
00:03:33,343 --> 00:03:35,258
Wait. No. No!
91
00:03:37,173 --> 00:03:39,741
No, no, no, no, no, no. No!
92
00:03:54,321 --> 00:03:56,801
You wanted a number,
I gave it to you.
93
00:03:56,888 --> 00:03:58,977
$626,000.
94
00:03:59,064 --> 00:04:01,066
That's my number.
95
00:04:01,153 --> 00:04:02,851
Saw that. Unacceptable.
96
00:04:02,938 --> 00:04:05,114
Do you mind telling me
how you got to that figure?
97
00:04:05,201 --> 00:04:07,725
I got it due to lost wages,
loss of future earnings
98
00:04:07,812 --> 00:04:11,120
pain and suffering, emotional
distress, loss of consortium.
99
00:04:11,207 --> 00:04:13,340
Many things go into
a Tommy Jefferson number.
100
00:04:13,427 --> 00:04:15,820
- Loss of consortium?
- He's depressed.
101
00:04:15,907 --> 00:04:17,866
- Affects his love life.
- Look..
102
00:04:17,953 --> 00:04:20,347
- No, you look.
- I asked you to look first.
103
00:04:25,003 --> 00:04:26,701
Your client wrongfully
terminated mine.
104
00:04:26,788 --> 00:04:29,965
That's a fact. That's a given.
That's a reality.
105
00:04:30,052 --> 00:04:34,230
One which you're not gonna
change by bringing in rude boy.
106
00:04:34,317 --> 00:04:36,406
Think I don't know
why you recruited him?
107
00:04:36,493 --> 00:04:38,539
I know why. You brought him in
to push my button.
108
00:04:38,626 --> 00:04:40,889
Nobody pushes my button.
109
00:04:40,976 --> 00:04:45,154
I don't even have a button.
$626,000. That's my number.
110
00:04:45,241 --> 00:04:49,201
Your client made $81,000 a year.
He's 72 years old.
111
00:04:49,289 --> 00:04:51,247
There's no way that lost wages
together with
112
00:04:51,334 --> 00:04:53,945
loss of future earnings
will ever, ever reach
113
00:04:54,032 --> 00:04:55,904
present-day value of that number
you're throwing out.
114
00:04:55,991 --> 00:04:58,950
Your client fired an old man
for being old.
115
00:04:59,037 --> 00:05:01,649
The jury will hate that.
116
00:05:01,736 --> 00:05:03,781
They will punish him,
you know it
117
00:05:03,868 --> 00:05:05,130
I know it, so does the bug.
118
00:05:05,217 --> 00:05:07,437
There's no wand to wave,
no button to push
119
00:05:07,524 --> 00:05:10,092
no card to play.
120
00:05:10,179 --> 00:05:12,486
You have a dog case.
121
00:05:12,573 --> 00:05:14,662
Your client's worst nightmare
would be for a jury
122
00:05:14,749 --> 00:05:17,055
to get its hands on this.
Ask the bug.
123
00:05:17,142 --> 00:05:19,362
- Tommy--
- Don't flirt with me.
124
00:05:19,449 --> 00:05:22,278
You want to flirt with me,
do it in a bar.
125
00:05:22,365 --> 00:05:25,934
Do it in a hotel lounge.
Do it on my boat.
126
00:05:26,021 --> 00:05:29,067
But not in a settlement
conference. $627,000.
127
00:05:29,154 --> 00:05:30,721
Oh, it's 27 now.
128
00:05:30,808 --> 00:05:32,288
Surcharge for bringing in
a bug.
129
00:05:32,375 --> 00:05:33,855
I tack on for bugs.
130
00:05:35,900 --> 00:05:37,641
I saw that. Unacceptable.
131
00:05:37,728 --> 00:05:41,166
$340,000.
That's our final offer.
132
00:05:41,253 --> 00:05:44,344
Hmm. Let the nightmare begin.
133
00:05:46,171 --> 00:05:48,043
I think you're gonna have
to eat this one, Adam.
134
00:05:48,130 --> 00:05:51,351
I'd cut your losses now and
get out. You done for the day?
135
00:05:51,438 --> 00:05:54,179
No, trial starts
this afternoon.
136
00:06:09,543 --> 00:06:12,372
- You the Jew?
- What did you just say?
137
00:06:12,459 --> 00:06:14,678
Hey, "Jew" is a slang.
It just means "lawyer."
138
00:06:14,765 --> 00:06:17,202
Oh.
139
00:06:17,289 --> 00:06:19,030
Yes, I would be the Jew.
140
00:06:40,922 --> 00:06:42,663
I'm the Jew.
141
00:06:50,845 --> 00:06:52,977
Alright, cool.
8 o'clock, here.
142
00:06:54,849 --> 00:06:56,981
Fine.
143
00:06:57,068 --> 00:06:59,157
By the way, no guns.
144
00:07:02,204 --> 00:07:04,424
Everyone will be frisked
at the door.
145
00:07:11,735 --> 00:07:14,259
Hey, man, I think I sold that
old lady some weed.
146
00:07:14,346 --> 00:07:15,826
What?
147
00:07:15,913 --> 00:07:19,351
See? They're getting along
better already.
148
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:23,530
Harry, the people
that'll be here tonight
149
00:07:23,617 --> 00:07:25,880
a few of 'em,
maybe all of 'em
150
00:07:25,967 --> 00:07:27,708
have killed people.
151
00:07:30,275 --> 00:07:33,191
Then I better do a good job.
152
00:07:33,278 --> 00:07:37,152
8 o'clock.
Bangers in the house.
153
00:07:42,853 --> 00:07:45,029
I don't like
that she brought in that bug.
154
00:07:45,116 --> 00:07:47,118
It's not that he threatens me
it's that she would think
155
00:07:47,205 --> 00:07:50,339
I have a button that
he would know how to push it.
156
00:07:50,426 --> 00:07:51,862
I don't like that.
157
00:07:51,949 --> 00:07:53,690
Tommy Jefferson
has no Achilles' heel.
158
00:07:53,777 --> 00:07:55,083
Tommy, you're personalizing.
159
00:07:55,170 --> 00:07:57,128
You don't do well when
you personalize, do you?
160
00:07:57,215 --> 00:07:59,740
Look at me. What did we say
on the ride over?
161
00:07:59,827 --> 00:08:01,350
I would be Tommy Big-Boy today.
162
00:08:01,437 --> 00:08:03,091
The facts of this case
sit with us.
163
00:08:03,178 --> 00:08:04,962
So just keep your focus.
164
00:08:05,049 --> 00:08:06,529
Look, would you like me to try
to rattle him?
165
00:08:06,616 --> 00:08:08,923
I don't care about him,
he's a bug.
166
00:08:09,010 --> 00:08:10,490
Rattle her.
167
00:08:10,577 --> 00:08:13,405
- Tommy..
- I'm attracted to you.
168
00:08:13,493 --> 00:08:15,277
I just thought we should
put that on the table.
169
00:08:15,364 --> 00:08:17,061
It'll have no bearing
on the case, but in the spirit
170
00:08:17,148 --> 00:08:20,587
of full disclosure, certain
types leave me damp, you're it.
171
00:08:23,894 --> 00:08:26,027
My-my client's willing
to come up to $410,000.
172
00:08:26,114 --> 00:08:29,683
Wow. That's a little harder
to say no to.
173
00:08:29,770 --> 00:08:31,249
No.
174
00:08:36,341 --> 00:08:39,519
Well, he was honest about it,
I'll give him that.
175
00:08:39,606 --> 00:08:41,433
What exactly did he say?
176
00:08:41,521 --> 00:08:44,393
He said he was scaling down
the operation
177
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,700
he needed to let
some people go.
178
00:08:46,787 --> 00:08:49,224
'He said,
"Gerald, you've run your race.'
179
00:08:49,311 --> 00:08:52,096
You need to let the younger
employees run theirs."
180
00:08:52,183 --> 00:08:54,142
Did he fault
your job performance?
181
00:08:54,229 --> 00:08:57,537
No. Just the opposite.
He said I was exemplary.
182
00:08:57,624 --> 00:09:00,583
That's what you said, Allan.
Exemplary.
183
00:09:00,670 --> 00:09:04,239
'So basically, he fired you
for no good reason.'
184
00:09:04,326 --> 00:09:06,894
Awful, must have been wrenching.
185
00:09:06,981 --> 00:09:08,939
You're damn right
it was wrenching.
186
00:09:09,026 --> 00:09:11,333
'46 years I was there.
It was my whole life.'
187
00:09:11,420 --> 00:09:13,901
And I get kicked to the curb
'cause I'm too old.
188
00:09:15,642 --> 00:09:17,557
- It's not right.
- No, it isn't.
189
00:09:17,644 --> 00:09:19,559
It's horribly wrong.
190
00:09:21,865 --> 00:09:27,044
First of all, I am sorry.
191
00:09:27,131 --> 00:09:29,177
I remember when my grandfather
lost his job.
192
00:09:29,264 --> 00:09:31,092
Perhaps you could write
about it in your book.
193
00:09:31,179 --> 00:09:32,659
I was..
194
00:09:34,269 --> 00:09:35,749
You're living on a fixed income.
What do you have?
195
00:09:35,836 --> 00:09:37,925
- Social Security?
- I get Social Security.
196
00:09:38,012 --> 00:09:39,883
- Yes.
- A pension?
197
00:09:39,970 --> 00:09:42,190
That doesn't mean he can fire me
for being too old.
198
00:09:42,277 --> 00:09:43,800
'I understand that, sir,
I'm just trying to get a'
199
00:09:43,887 --> 00:09:46,237
a sense of the hardship.
Do you have a pension?
200
00:09:46,324 --> 00:09:47,978
Yes.
201
00:09:48,065 --> 00:09:49,240
How much do you get
from your Social Security
202
00:09:49,327 --> 00:09:50,285
and your pension?
203
00:09:50,372 --> 00:09:51,765
I get about $2200 a month.
204
00:09:51,852 --> 00:09:53,288
Is that the extent
of your income?
205
00:09:53,375 --> 00:09:55,333
This is not just about income,
young lady.
206
00:09:55,420 --> 00:09:57,422
I understand.
207
00:09:57,509 --> 00:09:59,511
Do you have other income?
208
00:09:59,599 --> 00:10:01,731
I get some stock dividends.
209
00:10:01,818 --> 00:10:03,515
Worth about how much?
210
00:10:03,603 --> 00:10:07,215
Oh, it works out to
about $8000 a year.
211
00:10:07,302 --> 00:10:09,086
Okay, so that's about $35,000
all in.
212
00:10:09,173 --> 00:10:13,177
And forgive my intrusion, but
do you have a savings account?
213
00:10:13,264 --> 00:10:14,962
This isn't about money.
214
00:10:15,049 --> 00:10:17,094
You've sued for lost wages
and future earnings
215
00:10:17,181 --> 00:10:19,096
and yet you testify
this isn't about the money--
216
00:10:19,183 --> 00:10:22,622
Objection. Of course this is
partly about money, but..
217
00:10:22,709 --> 00:10:24,058
I'm talking to him now,
I'd be happy
218
00:10:24,145 --> 00:10:25,320
to get a drink with you later.
219
00:10:25,407 --> 00:10:26,756
- Good, can I come?
- Yes.
220
00:10:26,843 --> 00:10:28,323
Let's all have a party
after the trial
221
00:10:28,410 --> 00:10:30,934
but for now
let's just get through this.
222
00:10:31,021 --> 00:10:32,414
May I be heard, Your Honor?
223
00:10:32,501 --> 00:10:34,721
Sir, when you're sitting
in that witness chair
224
00:10:34,808 --> 00:10:36,679
it's all about you being heard.
225
00:10:38,550 --> 00:10:40,814
I have suffered economic loss.
226
00:10:40,901 --> 00:10:43,773
But more than the money, my life
was about waking up
227
00:10:43,860 --> 00:10:46,384
and going to work.
228
00:10:46,471 --> 00:10:48,212
A man needs a purpose.
229
00:10:48,299 --> 00:10:50,998
- And by purpose do you--
- I'm not finished.
230
00:10:51,085 --> 00:10:55,698
I gave my life to this company.
I worked hard for a fair wage.
231
00:10:55,785 --> 00:10:59,659
This job, it...it's all I had.
232
00:10:59,746 --> 00:11:03,401
I sit here now with nothing
but time on my hands.
233
00:11:06,578 --> 00:11:08,450
What am I supposed to do?
234
00:11:13,063 --> 00:11:15,109
Where am I supposed to go?
235
00:12:18,825 --> 00:12:22,698
Are we good?
Everyone in here is clean? Good.
236
00:12:24,265 --> 00:12:25,483
Harry.
237
00:12:25,570 --> 00:12:26,571
You didn't have to bring a gun.
238
00:12:28,356 --> 00:12:30,488
Come on, calm down.
239
00:12:32,664 --> 00:12:35,755
Thank you. Any more outbursts,
you'll hear more of that.
240
00:12:38,061 --> 00:12:41,412
Alright, so...who's who?
241
00:12:41,499 --> 00:12:44,372
Boone Park is on that side.
Li'l D will speak for them.
242
00:12:44,459 --> 00:12:47,157
Linkwood's on that side.
Keshawn will speak for them.
243
00:12:47,244 --> 00:12:48,985
And the two guys
who are having the dispute?
244
00:12:49,072 --> 00:12:51,031
It's Dewayne from Linkwood.
Dewayne.
245
00:12:53,598 --> 00:12:55,992
- And C.K. with Boone Park.
- 'Got it.'
246
00:12:56,079 --> 00:12:58,125
And it's C.K.'s car
that was damaged?
247
00:12:58,212 --> 00:13:00,692
Damaged? You tripping.
That ride was done.
248
00:13:00,780 --> 00:13:02,956
- Yo, watch your mouth, man.
- He lucky he wasn't in it.
249
00:13:03,043 --> 00:13:05,480
- You feel me?
- What you say, son?
250
00:13:05,567 --> 00:13:07,308
Guys, guys, come on,
we here to talk.
251
00:13:07,395 --> 00:13:10,441
We didn't come here to fight.
Calm down!
252
00:13:16,883 --> 00:13:18,798
'It broke my heart
to fire Gerald.'
253
00:13:18,885 --> 00:13:21,801
He's been a valued,
loyal employee.
254
00:13:21,888 --> 00:13:26,022
My father hired him. He began
mowing grass, landscaping.
255
00:13:26,109 --> 00:13:28,764
Worked his way into accounting
and sales.
256
00:13:28,851 --> 00:13:30,766
- 'And he was good.'
- But?
257
00:13:30,853 --> 00:13:34,465
But I had to trim my workforce.
I was hemorrhaging money.
258
00:13:34,552 --> 00:13:37,164
And the trimming you did
involved your older employees?
259
00:13:37,251 --> 00:13:40,384
Yes, but what it really came
down to was economic need.
260
00:13:40,471 --> 00:13:42,082
'The young guys
and women had families.'
261
00:13:42,169 --> 00:13:44,388
Tuition to swing,
mouths to feed.
262
00:13:44,475 --> 00:13:47,217
They were scraping just to avoid
getting foreclosed on.
263
00:13:47,304 --> 00:13:49,393
'Gerald owns his home outright,
he has a great pension'
264
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,353
stock dividends, bottom line,
he was better able to absorb
265
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,529
being laid off,
at least financially.
266
00:13:54,616 --> 00:13:56,139
Did you ever consider
the difficulty
267
00:13:56,226 --> 00:13:59,186
for a 72-year-old
to reenter the labor force?
268
00:13:59,273 --> 00:14:00,622
I did consider that.
269
00:14:00,709 --> 00:14:02,406
What about
our State budget mess?
270
00:14:02,493 --> 00:14:04,408
Think we should start brooming
the older judges?
271
00:14:04,495 --> 00:14:06,019
Oh, come on.
272
00:14:06,106 --> 00:14:07,585
Did you consider
the psychological damage
273
00:14:07,672 --> 00:14:09,631
it might cause Mr. Essex
to be put out of work?
274
00:14:09,718 --> 00:14:11,328
- I know it had to be tough.
- You know how?
275
00:14:11,415 --> 00:14:13,983
You read about it?
You consulted psychologists?
276
00:14:14,070 --> 00:14:15,637
I don't have to consult
with anybody to know
277
00:14:15,724 --> 00:14:16,812
this was gonna be difficult.
278
00:14:16,899 --> 00:14:18,858
'Gerald has financial security'
279
00:14:18,945 --> 00:14:20,511
which most
of my employees don't--
280
00:14:20,598 --> 00:14:22,426
Not my question, what,
if you don't like my question
281
00:14:22,513 --> 00:14:23,732
you're gonna answer
one of your own?
282
00:14:23,819 --> 00:14:25,429
- Objection.
- Mr. Jefferson.
283
00:14:25,516 --> 00:14:27,997
You say you considered need
in deciding who to fire.
284
00:14:28,084 --> 00:14:30,391
Did you consider fairness?
Basic fairness?
285
00:14:30,478 --> 00:14:33,089
Like if a man gives
46 years of his life
286
00:14:33,176 --> 00:14:36,658
if he's loyal,
if he works hard every damn day
287
00:14:36,745 --> 00:14:38,921
that doesn't count?
That doesn't count?
288
00:14:39,008 --> 00:14:40,705
Of course it counts.
289
00:14:40,792 --> 00:14:43,578
You had 11 employees who had
worked for you under a year.
290
00:14:43,665 --> 00:14:46,886
You kept them, but this man
you fired...because he's old.
291
00:14:46,973 --> 00:14:48,365
You think I want
to be losing money?
292
00:14:48,452 --> 00:14:50,977
Do you think I want
to be firing people? I had to.
293
00:14:51,064 --> 00:14:53,457
We all have to make sacrifices,
for God's sake.
294
00:14:53,544 --> 00:14:55,546
And you decided to sacrifice
the employee
295
00:14:55,633 --> 00:14:57,548
who had given you the most?
296
00:15:04,294 --> 00:15:06,514
Look, man, your boy's
out of line, and you know it.
297
00:15:06,601 --> 00:15:08,603
He wasn't out of nothing. You
don't even care about that girl.
298
00:15:08,690 --> 00:15:10,387
That don't matter
if I was done with her or not.
299
00:15:10,474 --> 00:15:11,780
- Hold on, nobody talks unless--
- What I'm saying is--
300
00:15:11,867 --> 00:15:13,521
- Quiet.
- I'm making a point!
301
00:15:13,608 --> 00:15:15,523
I said shut your mouth.
302
00:15:18,830 --> 00:15:22,922
- Harry, take it down a notch.
- This is the only notch I know.
303
00:15:23,009 --> 00:15:25,663
Let's continue,
one person at a time.
304
00:15:25,750 --> 00:15:29,319
My point be this...if anybody
be out of order it's this punk
305
00:15:29,406 --> 00:15:32,409
when he decided
to torch C.K.'s car.
306
00:15:32,496 --> 00:15:34,194
- My turn?
- Go.
307
00:15:34,281 --> 00:15:37,719
Here's what it is.
It's about respect, you feel me?
308
00:15:37,806 --> 00:15:39,808
He knew he should
have stuck to Shonda
309
00:15:39,895 --> 00:15:43,116
but he did it anyway. He hood
rich. Peeling off stacks.
310
00:15:43,203 --> 00:15:45,335
- Trying to front--
- Time out.
311
00:15:45,422 --> 00:15:47,381
I know you all have
your own jargon
312
00:15:47,468 --> 00:15:49,383
but I don't talk
legal-ese to you
313
00:15:49,470 --> 00:15:51,689
so please don't speak
gangster-ese to me.
314
00:15:51,776 --> 00:15:53,082
Harry, all he said was--
315
00:15:53,169 --> 00:15:54,910
What he said he can say
in plain English.
316
00:15:54,997 --> 00:15:56,346
That is plain English.
317
00:15:56,433 --> 00:15:57,957
You don't understand
what I'm saying..
318
00:15:58,044 --> 00:15:59,654
That was plain enough.
If you don't understand..
319
00:16:01,569 --> 00:16:04,050
Hold up. You're going to bust
an eardrum with that thing.
320
00:16:04,137 --> 00:16:05,965
Put it down.
321
00:16:06,052 --> 00:16:07,488
Give us a minute.
322
00:16:14,974 --> 00:16:16,105
You need to lighten up a little.
323
00:16:16,192 --> 00:16:17,367
No, I need to be
able to understand
324
00:16:17,454 --> 00:16:18,455
what they're saying.
325
00:16:18,542 --> 00:16:19,543
Ask me and I'll tell you.
326
00:16:19,630 --> 00:16:20,805
Check this out.
327
00:16:20,892 --> 00:16:22,546
We come to an agreement
on something.
328
00:16:24,244 --> 00:16:26,289
- This here's not gonna work.
- What?
329
00:16:26,376 --> 00:16:28,422
At least not with you.
You're out.
330
00:16:28,509 --> 00:16:29,727
What do you mean I'm out?
331
00:16:29,814 --> 00:16:31,338
You're a terrible mediator,
lady.
332
00:16:31,425 --> 00:16:33,862
You're out. He's in.
333
00:16:33,949 --> 00:16:35,603
- What?
- What?
334
00:16:35,690 --> 00:16:37,126
Look, you just don't
get it, lady.
335
00:16:37,213 --> 00:16:38,606
We think maybe he does.
336
00:16:38,693 --> 00:16:40,521
- I'm the mediator.
- No, you're not.
337
00:16:40,608 --> 00:16:43,002
We'll be back
tomorrow 8:00 a.m.
338
00:16:43,089 --> 00:16:44,438
Be ready.
339
00:17:12,901 --> 00:17:15,556
Do not scream. You hear me?
340
00:17:15,643 --> 00:17:17,993
I'm not going to hurt you.
I just need you to listen to me.
341
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,692
Do not bite me. I don't like
when people bite me either.
342
00:17:21,779 --> 00:17:24,521
I ain't gonna rob you
or nothing, I promise.
343
00:17:24,608 --> 00:17:26,393
I just need to talk to you.
344
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:35,445
That is not the way
to initiate a conversation.
345
00:17:35,532 --> 00:17:38,405
Sorry. I heard you pack.
346
00:17:38,492 --> 00:17:40,624
I want to get out
of Boone Park.
347
00:17:40,711 --> 00:17:42,670
I want to go to college
like that Malcolm kid.
348
00:17:42,757 --> 00:17:44,063
I told you,
I didn't get him..
349
00:17:44,150 --> 00:17:46,413
It's not about that.
350
00:17:46,500 --> 00:17:48,502
I just need you
to help me get out.
351
00:17:48,589 --> 00:17:50,939
Well, what's the big deal?
Just say you're out.
352
00:17:51,026 --> 00:17:52,593
In which case,
they'll kill me.
353
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,422
- Oh, come on.
- You're the mediator.
354
00:17:55,509 --> 00:17:57,163
I just need you
to help me get out.
355
00:17:57,250 --> 00:18:01,297
Actually, I'm no longer..
They'd really kill you?
356
00:18:01,384 --> 00:18:05,214
Lady, read my lips.
They...will...kill...me.
357
00:18:22,449 --> 00:18:25,234
- No, no, no, no, no! No!
- Calm down.
358
00:18:25,321 --> 00:18:27,323
Harry, you cannot do this.
359
00:18:27,410 --> 00:18:30,544
Getting someone out of a gang?
That is way, way over your head.
360
00:18:30,631 --> 00:18:34,287
You cannot. First of all, they
probably would kill him.
361
00:18:34,374 --> 00:18:36,419
- It's definitely a possibility.
- I cannot believe--
362
00:18:36,506 --> 00:18:38,334
Believe it.
My brother was in a gang.
363
00:18:38,421 --> 00:18:40,293
He wanted to get out. He..
364
00:18:48,475 --> 00:18:51,478
If you try to do this,
then you can forget about us
365
00:18:51,565 --> 00:18:54,524
mediating the other thing 'cause
our trust, our credibility--
366
00:18:54,611 --> 00:18:57,353
Helping kids leave gangs
is something mediators do.
367
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,573
The ones with experience, maybe.
368
00:18:59,660 --> 00:19:02,315
And most of them,
ex-gang members themselves.
369
00:19:02,402 --> 00:19:05,100
This is way beyond the expertise
of a patent lawyer.
370
00:19:08,234 --> 00:19:11,628
Just handle the dispute
we got on the table, please?
371
00:19:17,068 --> 00:19:19,549
Hello. Welcome, welcome.
372
00:19:19,636 --> 00:19:21,377
I took the liberty of
making little name tags
373
00:19:21,464 --> 00:19:23,162
to make things
a little easier.
374
00:19:23,249 --> 00:19:25,773
Little D.
That's for you.
375
00:19:25,860 --> 00:19:27,949
You're not little. Funny.
376
00:19:28,036 --> 00:19:31,909
C.K. That's for you.
377
00:19:31,996 --> 00:19:35,391
Dewayne, here you..
No? Okay.
378
00:19:35,478 --> 00:19:37,393
Keshawn.
379
00:19:46,663 --> 00:19:48,187
Maybe we should
bump up the offer.
380
00:19:48,274 --> 00:19:49,753
The client refuses.
381
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,712
Rachel, we're getting
a little thrashed here.
382
00:19:51,799 --> 00:19:55,019
Not to criticize, but you didn't
exactly rattle Tommy much.
383
00:19:55,106 --> 00:19:58,501
- You're blaming me?
- No. I just..
384
00:19:58,588 --> 00:20:00,590
Look, it's not over.
Our client is sympathetic.
385
00:20:00,677 --> 00:20:02,679
- It's just the plaintiff is--
- Is way more so.
386
00:20:02,766 --> 00:20:04,725
If we close well,
we are still in it.
387
00:20:08,250 --> 00:20:10,470
How's Chunhua doing?
388
00:20:10,557 --> 00:20:12,428
Better. A lot better actually.
389
00:20:12,515 --> 00:20:13,995
Thanks for loaning
out Thomas.
390
00:20:14,082 --> 00:20:15,997
Oh, it's the least I can do
391
00:20:16,084 --> 00:20:18,652
after you've helped
so much with this case.
392
00:20:18,739 --> 00:20:20,915
I'm kidding.
393
00:20:21,002 --> 00:20:23,396
Seriously, do you have
any ideas?
394
00:20:23,483 --> 00:20:26,616
Well, Tommy's done a good job
of framing the question
395
00:20:26,703 --> 00:20:29,315
why him just because he's old.
396
00:20:29,402 --> 00:20:32,492
We need the question to be,
why does he get tenure
397
00:20:32,579 --> 00:20:34,537
just because he's old.
398
00:20:42,241 --> 00:20:45,592
Okay, so I think I've got
the basics of the situation.
399
00:20:45,679 --> 00:20:49,204
Dewayne, how long you
and Shonda going out?
400
00:20:49,291 --> 00:20:52,425
I don't know, man...a few
months, something like that.
401
00:20:52,512 --> 00:20:53,948
- When'd you break up?
- Little, bro.
402
00:20:54,035 --> 00:20:56,080
I don't really know
all these damn dates.
403
00:20:56,167 --> 00:20:59,910
It was a while ago. Besides,
bottom line, he don't get her.
404
00:21:01,651 --> 00:21:03,610
No matter what, bro.
405
00:21:07,048 --> 00:21:09,398
So you set fire to his car.
406
00:21:09,485 --> 00:21:12,488
- Whatever.
- Okay. C.K..
407
00:21:12,575 --> 00:21:14,838
There's sort of an unwritten
rule about dating ex-girlfriends
408
00:21:14,925 --> 00:21:18,277
from another gang, right?
409
00:21:18,364 --> 00:21:20,714
- Yeah.
- $12,000 for your car?
410
00:21:20,801 --> 00:21:22,803
- How you get that number?
- It's what I paid.
411
00:21:22,890 --> 00:21:24,892
That's because
you were suckered.
412
00:21:24,979 --> 00:21:26,763
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
413
00:21:29,810 --> 00:21:31,507
- Put it down.
- Not now, bro.
414
00:21:31,594 --> 00:21:33,379
- Harry, put yours down.
- Not until--
415
00:21:33,466 --> 00:21:35,337
Put it down now.
416
00:21:43,127 --> 00:21:46,000
Now you. Give it to me.
417
00:21:46,087 --> 00:21:47,828
Give it to me!
418
00:21:54,791 --> 00:21:56,402
Give it to me.
419
00:22:00,449 --> 00:22:02,799
- Come on, let's go!
- What's up?
420
00:22:02,886 --> 00:22:04,845
- 'Anybody else got a gun?'
- Do something!
421
00:22:04,932 --> 00:22:07,456
Has anybody else got a gun?
422
00:22:07,543 --> 00:22:09,589
Ten seconds immunity.
423
00:22:09,676 --> 00:22:13,070
'Cause if I find otherwise,
you won't like my ruling.
424
00:22:13,157 --> 00:22:14,768
Ten seconds.
425
00:22:22,341 --> 00:22:24,995
Alright. A one hour cooldown,
then we continue.
426
00:22:25,082 --> 00:22:27,955
- We don't need an hour.
- Maybe I do.
427
00:22:28,042 --> 00:22:30,174
Kid, you better make this work.
428
00:22:30,261 --> 00:22:31,915
'Cause if not,
there's gonna be blood.
429
00:22:32,002 --> 00:22:34,396
And it's gonna be on your hands.
You understand?
430
00:22:39,532 --> 00:22:41,534
I just came from
the CIRV offices.
431
00:22:41,621 --> 00:22:43,405
You know CIRV, right?
432
00:22:43,492 --> 00:22:46,016
Yeah, yeah, Cincinnati
Initiative to Reduce
433
00:22:46,103 --> 00:22:47,670
whatever. I heard of it.
434
00:22:47,757 --> 00:22:49,280
Well, they pretty much
echoed what Malcolm told me
435
00:22:49,368 --> 00:22:52,066
that this is way
over my head.
436
00:22:52,153 --> 00:22:54,068
Lewis, they can
provide protection.
437
00:22:54,155 --> 00:22:55,852
They have experienced people
who can mentor..
438
00:22:55,939 --> 00:22:57,767
I came to you.
439
00:22:57,854 --> 00:22:59,987
Got a feeling about you.
440
00:23:00,074 --> 00:23:02,990
Why does everybody
get feelings about me?
441
00:23:03,077 --> 00:23:06,210
Look, Lewis, they have a lot of
reformed gang members
442
00:23:06,297 --> 00:23:10,040
who can help the transition.
They're good at this, I'm not.
443
00:23:10,127 --> 00:23:12,521
- I'm not going to CIRV.
- Well, I can't help you.
444
00:23:12,608 --> 00:23:14,305
Do you want me to end up dead?
445
00:23:14,393 --> 00:23:16,743
Lewis, I cannot help you.
446
00:23:36,066 --> 00:23:39,809
C.K., how did you start
going out with Shonda?
447
00:23:39,896 --> 00:23:43,900
- Why that matter to you?
- 'Cause it does.
448
00:23:43,987 --> 00:23:46,207
From the beginning.
449
00:23:46,294 --> 00:23:48,165
Look, man, I don't
really remember, I just..
450
00:23:48,252 --> 00:23:50,472
Refresh your recollection, then.
451
00:23:55,695 --> 00:23:58,785
Well, I saw her one day
coming out this store.
452
00:23:58,872 --> 00:24:02,441
And I thought, you know,
she'd be cool to hang out with.
453
00:24:08,882 --> 00:24:11,275
So that's it, we started
kicking it, no big deal.
454
00:24:13,669 --> 00:24:15,236
I mean, I ain't want no drama,
so I told her
455
00:24:15,323 --> 00:24:16,803
how it is, you know.
456
00:24:16,890 --> 00:24:18,413
I told her
where I was coming from.
457
00:24:22,330 --> 00:24:25,246
I told that girl exactly
where she fit in, in my life.
458
00:24:28,336 --> 00:24:30,469
She was cool with it.
459
00:24:40,827 --> 00:24:43,917
That's it.
I ain't mean no disrespect.
460
00:24:44,004 --> 00:24:46,659
So there was no call
to go and torch that man's ride.
461
00:24:46,746 --> 00:24:48,312
Not your turn.
462
00:24:53,796 --> 00:24:55,363
Is that it?
463
00:24:56,625 --> 00:24:58,235
C.K.?
464
00:25:11,379 --> 00:25:13,294
We all know the story.
465
00:25:13,381 --> 00:25:16,602
Lifeboat starts
to take on water.
466
00:25:16,689 --> 00:25:19,126
Someone has the idea,
"Hey, let's throw out
467
00:25:19,213 --> 00:25:22,782
all the old people." That's
exactly what happened here.
468
00:25:22,869 --> 00:25:25,045
'Never mind the years
of service, loyalty.'
469
00:25:25,132 --> 00:25:26,873
"We want youth, you're out."
470
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:30,311
It's disgusting
how we treat our elderly.
471
00:25:30,398 --> 00:25:32,356
As far as
the television networks go
472
00:25:32,443 --> 00:25:35,969
if you're over 49 years of age,
you're dead.
473
00:25:36,056 --> 00:25:41,235
You don't exist.
It's unfair, it's...indecent.
474
00:25:41,322 --> 00:25:46,196
And what's worse, ageism
in this country is tolerated.
475
00:25:46,283 --> 00:25:49,591
Giggled at, even.
Make fun of the old.
476
00:25:49,678 --> 00:25:53,377
Why not? Discriminate, go ahead.
Who cares?
477
00:25:53,464 --> 00:25:55,858
'Imagine if we did that
with racism'
478
00:25:55,945 --> 00:26:00,646
or sexism,
or all the other "isms."
479
00:26:00,733 --> 00:26:03,474
'But ageism,
knock yourself out.'
480
00:26:03,562 --> 00:26:06,390
Gerald Essex gave
Meade Landscaping and Design
481
00:26:06,477 --> 00:26:08,567
46 years of his life.
482
00:26:08,654 --> 00:26:11,570
He deserved better than to be
fired because of his age.
483
00:26:11,657 --> 00:26:13,310
There was no suggestion here
that he could no longer
484
00:26:13,397 --> 00:26:16,662
do the job. Just the opposite.
He was exemplary.
485
00:26:16,749 --> 00:26:20,274
But old.
And we don't like old, do we?
486
00:26:20,361 --> 00:26:23,712
I asked the defendant,
and he was stuck for an answer
487
00:26:23,799 --> 00:26:26,236
where does that fall
on the fairness graph?
488
00:26:26,323 --> 00:26:30,066
I'll ask the same question
of you.
489
00:26:30,153 --> 00:26:33,592
Might also throw in
the two questions Gerald asked.
490
00:26:33,679 --> 00:26:35,594
What is he supposed to do?
491
00:26:37,508 --> 00:26:40,120
Where is he supposed to go?
492
00:26:53,176 --> 00:26:54,874
I actually like old.
493
00:26:54,961 --> 00:26:56,310
I'd tell you about
my grandfather, but I've been
494
00:26:56,397 --> 00:26:59,618
instructed by the court
to put that in my book.
495
00:26:59,705 --> 00:27:02,011
That lifeboat analogy,
if you remember the story
496
00:27:02,098 --> 00:27:04,144
the elderly were
tossed overboard
497
00:27:04,231 --> 00:27:05,580
in order to save people.
498
00:27:05,667 --> 00:27:07,582
Mr. Jefferson
left that part out.
499
00:27:07,669 --> 00:27:10,454
My client had a bunch
of drowning employees
500
00:27:10,541 --> 00:27:13,719
who would have lost their homes
if they were put out of work.
501
00:27:13,806 --> 00:27:16,286
Some wouldn't even be able
to feed their families.
502
00:27:16,373 --> 00:27:19,333
So he chose to spare
those workers and let go of
503
00:27:19,420 --> 00:27:21,901
the employees who were
financially secure
504
00:27:21,988 --> 00:27:24,686
employees like Mr. Essex
who had savings
505
00:27:24,773 --> 00:27:27,384
'who had Social Security,
who had pensions'
506
00:27:27,471 --> 00:27:30,387
employees who owned
their homes outright.
507
00:27:30,474 --> 00:27:33,564
Employees who, yes,
happened to be older.
508
00:27:35,436 --> 00:27:38,482
Mr. Essex deserved better,
of course he did.
509
00:27:38,569 --> 00:27:40,789
So do a lot of people
in this economy.
510
00:27:42,704 --> 00:27:46,273
Let's not get carried away
with this ageism nonsense.
511
00:27:46,360 --> 00:27:48,841
The over-50 demographic, they
might be dead to the networks
512
00:27:48,928 --> 00:27:51,104
but otherwise
they're not doing so bad.
513
00:27:51,191 --> 00:27:53,410
'They control over
eight trillion in assets'
514
00:27:53,497 --> 00:27:55,804
more than 70%
of discretionary income.
515
00:27:55,891 --> 00:28:00,591
They make up 82% of Congress,
100% of Supreme Court
516
00:28:00,679 --> 00:28:02,811
80% of CEOs.
517
00:28:02,898 --> 00:28:07,337
They basically control
government, the economy.
518
00:28:07,424 --> 00:28:09,252
In short, old people rule.
519
00:28:09,339 --> 00:28:11,472
'If one group is getting
especially slammed'
520
00:28:11,559 --> 00:28:13,169
'it is the young.'
521
00:28:13,256 --> 00:28:14,693
For kids coming
out of college today
522
00:28:14,780 --> 00:28:17,391
it is a labor market depression.
523
00:28:17,478 --> 00:28:19,045
They have to go back
to living with their parents
524
00:28:19,132 --> 00:28:21,525
because there are
simply no jobs.
525
00:28:21,612 --> 00:28:24,572
So let's put Mr. Jefferson's
outrage in perspective here.
526
00:28:28,924 --> 00:28:31,405
As for this fairness graph
527
00:28:31,492 --> 00:28:33,886
let's say you had to let go of
one of two employees
528
00:28:33,973 --> 00:28:36,149
one wouldn't face
any real financial hardship
529
00:28:36,236 --> 00:28:38,194
for the other,
it would be catastrophic.
530
00:28:38,281 --> 00:28:40,153
'What would you do?'
531
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,851
That was the choice
facing Allan Meade.
532
00:28:42,938 --> 00:28:45,854
He chose to inflict
less hardship.
533
00:28:45,941 --> 00:28:48,727
We should punish him for that?
Really?
534
00:29:24,371 --> 00:29:26,721
Any idea what you're gonna do?
535
00:29:26,808 --> 00:29:30,029
I got an idea, but..
536
00:29:30,116 --> 00:29:33,162
- My advice?
- Nope.
537
00:29:33,249 --> 00:29:35,208
I can't believe you
got me into this.
538
00:29:35,295 --> 00:29:36,905
You're gonna get me killed,
I hope you're happy.
539
00:29:36,992 --> 00:29:38,646
I'm never happy.
540
00:29:44,652 --> 00:29:46,872
Was your brother killed
trying to get out of a gang?
541
00:29:46,959 --> 00:29:49,831
No. He was shot three times.
542
00:29:49,918 --> 00:29:51,746
So he was meant to be killed.
543
00:29:51,833 --> 00:29:53,443
No, if they wanted to kill him,
they would've killed him.
544
00:29:58,579 --> 00:30:00,799
Malcolm, look at me.
545
00:30:03,062 --> 00:30:06,282
My father, it should be said
he was drunk at the time
546
00:30:06,369 --> 00:30:09,198
but still...
he once said to me
547
00:30:09,285 --> 00:30:12,419
"there comes a time in
every man's life when he stops
548
00:30:12,506 --> 00:30:16,423
letting life just happen to him,
and he starts happening to it."
549
00:30:16,510 --> 00:30:18,381
I have no idea what that means.
550
00:30:18,468 --> 00:30:20,731
You just look them in the eye,
every last single one of them
551
00:30:20,819 --> 00:30:22,821
and you tell them
what your ruling is.
552
00:30:22,908 --> 00:30:25,214
Not everybody can be
as brave as you, okay?
553
00:30:25,301 --> 00:30:26,912
You think I'm brave?
554
00:30:28,522 --> 00:30:32,613
Malcolm, I got thrown out
on my ass by my law firm
555
00:30:32,700 --> 00:30:35,094
at the age of 61.
556
00:30:35,181 --> 00:30:39,359
I suddenly find myself
old, fat
557
00:30:39,446 --> 00:30:42,405
alone, unemployed
558
00:30:42,492 --> 00:30:45,800
now practicing law
in a shoe store.
559
00:30:45,887 --> 00:30:48,368
That isn't brave,
it's desperate.
560
00:30:48,455 --> 00:30:50,587
Most people my age,
they resign themselves
561
00:30:50,674 --> 00:30:54,678
to just projecting their hopes
and dreams onto their kids.
562
00:30:54,765 --> 00:30:58,465
Well, I don't have any kids,
so I can't even do that.
563
00:30:58,552 --> 00:31:01,729
No grandchildren to bounce on.
564
00:31:01,816 --> 00:31:03,862
I got a friggin' shoe store
in a ghetto.
565
00:31:06,821 --> 00:31:10,042
But I'll tell you this.
566
00:31:10,129 --> 00:31:13,784
I do get to project
a little hope and a few dreams.
567
00:31:13,872 --> 00:31:15,221
I do it with you.
568
00:31:16,962 --> 00:31:18,659
You'd be surprised
at how much hope
569
00:31:18,746 --> 00:31:22,184
I project your way, Malcolm.
570
00:31:22,271 --> 00:31:24,883
You're an awesome kid.
571
00:31:24,970 --> 00:31:27,233
Now, I'm not your mother.
572
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,061
But I'm nevertheless
going to say something to you
573
00:31:29,148 --> 00:31:31,977
that every parent says to
his or her child at some point.
574
00:31:34,544 --> 00:31:36,720
Don't let me down.
575
00:31:36,807 --> 00:31:38,853
Or else.
576
00:31:38,940 --> 00:31:41,203
'Cause they may kill me, too.
577
00:31:47,383 --> 00:31:48,907
I was bad.
578
00:31:48,994 --> 00:31:50,865
Tommy, you weren't bad.
579
00:31:50,952 --> 00:31:54,173
Yes, I was.
I was bad, bad, bad.
580
00:31:54,260 --> 00:31:57,567
- You weren't.
- But she was better.
581
00:31:57,654 --> 00:31:59,482
I don't like it
when people are better.
582
00:31:59,569 --> 00:32:01,310
Nobody gets to be better
than Tommy Jefferson.
583
00:32:01,397 --> 00:32:03,269
You're not acting like
Tommy Big-Boy now, are you?
584
00:32:03,356 --> 00:32:05,445
- You're pouting.
- Because she was better.
585
00:32:05,532 --> 00:32:08,274
- You both were good.
- That's not what I wanna hear.
586
00:32:08,361 --> 00:32:11,799
Everything was going so well.
I don't understand.
587
00:32:11,886 --> 00:32:13,844
Look, she's a good lawyer.
We knew that.
588
00:32:13,932 --> 00:32:16,238
- She must be a lesbian.
- Excuse me?
589
00:32:16,325 --> 00:32:17,805
You bolstered her
by flirting with her.
590
00:32:17,892 --> 00:32:20,242
That's what you did.
Made her much better.
591
00:32:22,114 --> 00:32:24,072
I saw that.
592
00:32:24,159 --> 00:32:26,031
I don't do well
against lesbians.
593
00:32:27,815 --> 00:32:29,121
You made her better.
594
00:32:31,384 --> 00:32:32,994
Okay.
595
00:32:33,081 --> 00:32:37,259
C.K. claims Dewayne owes him
$12,000 for destroying his car.
596
00:32:37,346 --> 00:32:39,348
Dewayne says his actions
were justified
597
00:32:39,435 --> 00:32:41,307
because C.K. broke the code
by dating
598
00:32:41,394 --> 00:32:43,091
his ex-girlfriend Shonda.
599
00:32:44,788 --> 00:32:49,010
C.K., Blue Book value
puts your car at 8000.
600
00:32:49,097 --> 00:32:51,143
- I tricked it out.
- 'It don't matter.'
601
00:32:51,230 --> 00:32:52,796
The mediator finds
in favor of Dewayne.
602
00:32:55,669 --> 00:32:57,018
Yeah, that's what
I'm talking about!
603
00:32:57,105 --> 00:32:59,499
I ain't done,
the mediator also finds
604
00:32:59,586 --> 00:33:03,372
that Dewayne has no claim
whatsoever on Shonda.
605
00:33:03,459 --> 00:33:05,766
Dewayne,
you and Shonda are done.
606
00:33:05,853 --> 00:33:09,204
She want to be with C.K., she
gonna be with C.K., that's it.
607
00:33:09,291 --> 00:33:11,946
No, that's not it.
Some codes don't get broken.
608
00:33:12,033 --> 00:33:14,166
Not by him and not by you,
you understand?
609
00:33:14,253 --> 00:33:17,212
I think you need to understand,
that's my ruling.
610
00:33:17,299 --> 00:33:20,128
It's either this
or no ruling, and I'm done.
611
00:33:20,215 --> 00:33:21,782
There's any blood,
it's on your hands.
612
00:33:21,869 --> 00:33:24,654
You got that? All you want
is not to pay the money.
613
00:33:24,741 --> 00:33:27,788
You don't care about the girl,
he does. This works.
614
00:33:33,881 --> 00:33:36,579
The mediator
has made his ruling.
615
00:33:36,666 --> 00:33:37,928
We all cool?
616
00:33:52,595 --> 00:33:54,119
We cool.
617
00:33:57,644 --> 00:34:01,822
- Whatever, man.
- Yeah. Cool.
618
00:34:01,909 --> 00:34:03,563
Then we're adjourned.
619
00:34:05,478 --> 00:34:06,827
One second.
620
00:34:09,308 --> 00:34:11,223
As you all made it so clear,
I'm just
621
00:34:11,310 --> 00:34:12,746
the little old white lady
who doesn't get it.
622
00:34:12,833 --> 00:34:15,357
Harry..
623
00:34:15,444 --> 00:34:18,360
And I don't.
I'll admit that.
624
00:34:18,447 --> 00:34:21,755
Why you choose
the life of gangs.
625
00:34:21,842 --> 00:34:24,062
Perhaps it chooses you.
626
00:34:24,149 --> 00:34:26,020
Maybe there's no choice
involved at all
627
00:34:26,107 --> 00:34:27,935
it's just a reality that..
628
00:34:29,676 --> 00:34:31,939
But here's another reality.
629
00:34:32,026 --> 00:34:35,682
Five, ten years down the road,
you people
630
00:34:35,769 --> 00:34:40,252
every single one of you, will
either be dead or in prison.
631
00:34:40,339 --> 00:34:42,689
Dead or in prison.
632
00:34:42,776 --> 00:34:47,172
You all cool with that?
You can't be that stupid.
633
00:34:47,259 --> 00:34:49,783
I know getting out of a gang
is difficult.
634
00:34:49,870 --> 00:34:51,611
'But if any of you
should choose to do so'
635
00:34:51,698 --> 00:34:55,267
'I would hope the rest of you,
as betrayed as you may feel'
636
00:34:55,354 --> 00:34:57,182
'would respect that decision.'
637
00:34:57,269 --> 00:35:00,098
'And if any of you want out,
my door is open to help you.'
638
00:35:00,185 --> 00:35:02,883
That's a promise
I'll make right now.
639
00:35:02,970 --> 00:35:05,059
And here's another one.
640
00:35:05,146 --> 00:35:10,369
If I hear that anybody tries
to get out and ends up dead..
641
00:35:10,456 --> 00:35:14,677
I will hunt the responsible
person or persons down
642
00:35:14,764 --> 00:35:16,766
like a mad dog.
643
00:35:19,856 --> 00:35:21,902
Now we're adjourned.
644
00:35:57,677 --> 00:35:59,983
You made an offer, I'm
accepting. What's the big deal?
645
00:36:00,070 --> 00:36:04,074
- You rejected that offer.
- I'm talking to her, bug.
646
00:36:04,162 --> 00:36:06,207
You never took it
off the table. Bug.
647
00:36:06,294 --> 00:36:07,774
I'm officially
accepting now.
648
00:36:07,861 --> 00:36:09,428
It's officially
off the table.
649
00:36:09,515 --> 00:36:11,908
Now, if you want
a hundred..
650
00:36:11,995 --> 00:36:15,085
What? Bug.
That's insulting, a hundred.
651
00:36:15,173 --> 00:36:17,349
Mr. Jefferson, you want
to take your seat now?
652
00:36:17,436 --> 00:36:19,655
No, Your Honor.
300, as low as I'll go.
653
00:36:19,742 --> 00:36:21,875
Let me rephrase.
Take your seat.
654
00:36:21,962 --> 00:36:23,964
- Final chance.
- Pass.
655
00:36:27,402 --> 00:36:31,014
Mr. Foreman, has the jury
reached a verdict?
656
00:36:31,101 --> 00:36:33,495
- We have, Your Honor.
- What say you?
657
00:36:33,582 --> 00:36:36,542
"In the matter of Essex vs.
Meade Landscaping and Design
658
00:36:36,629 --> 00:36:38,805
"on the question of liability
659
00:36:38,892 --> 00:36:40,676
we find in favor
of the plaintiff."
660
00:36:40,763 --> 00:36:44,202
Of course you do. Tommy Jay,
Tommy Jay. Nobody like me.
661
00:36:44,289 --> 00:36:47,248
And on the question of damages,
we order the defendant
662
00:36:47,335 --> 00:36:49,424
to pay the plaintiff $75.
663
00:36:51,165 --> 00:36:52,862
What?
664
00:36:52,949 --> 00:36:55,996
- Did he say $75?
- Tommy Big-Boy.
665
00:36:56,083 --> 00:36:57,911
Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury, thank..
666
00:36:57,998 --> 00:36:59,565
- 75 bucks? That's it?
- It's a victory.
667
00:36:59,652 --> 00:37:03,438
You're still undefeated.
Big-Boy. Big-Big-Boy now.
668
00:37:03,525 --> 00:37:05,571
75 bucks?
669
00:37:05,658 --> 00:37:07,312
Essentially, the jury said
it was wrong of you
670
00:37:07,399 --> 00:37:08,878
to fire him
because of his age
671
00:37:08,965 --> 00:37:10,532
but they understood
why you did it.
672
00:37:10,619 --> 00:37:12,752
Shall I pay him now?
'Cause I have $75 on me.
673
00:37:12,839 --> 00:37:14,667
- I'd wait on that.
- Okay.
674
00:37:14,754 --> 00:37:16,538
- Listen, hey, thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
675
00:37:16,625 --> 00:37:18,540
- Thank you both.
- Our pleasure.
676
00:37:22,022 --> 00:37:23,850
- Thanks.
- Oh, you won it, Rachel.
677
00:37:23,937 --> 00:37:25,808
Oh, I know, but still,
you wanted to be useful
678
00:37:25,895 --> 00:37:28,333
it's the thought that counts.
679
00:37:28,420 --> 00:37:30,596
I called, you came. Thanks.
680
00:37:36,210 --> 00:37:37,994
- Not happy.
- No.
681
00:37:38,081 --> 00:37:39,561
Seventy-five dollars?
682
00:37:39,648 --> 00:37:41,694
According to Adam,
Tommy is furious.
683
00:37:41,781 --> 00:37:43,609
Adam is back to being
a rude little bug.
684
00:37:43,696 --> 00:37:45,350
Of course he is.
685
00:37:45,437 --> 00:37:47,134
This one was
a paying client though, Harry.
686
00:37:47,221 --> 00:37:50,224
We actually get money for this.
687
00:37:50,311 --> 00:37:52,139
- Harry.
- What?
688
00:37:55,795 --> 00:37:57,362
What?
689
00:38:31,483 --> 00:38:33,789
Lewis?
690
00:38:33,876 --> 00:38:35,530
Who is it?
691
00:38:35,617 --> 00:38:37,837
It's me.
692
00:38:37,924 --> 00:38:40,492
Harry Korn.
693
00:38:40,579 --> 00:38:42,450
Oh, thank you.
694
00:38:45,801 --> 00:38:50,066
I-I don't know how to...
thank you.
695
00:38:50,153 --> 00:38:52,982
Are you being sarcastic?
696
00:38:53,069 --> 00:38:55,028
No.
697
00:38:55,115 --> 00:38:56,421
They just beat me.
698
00:38:58,423 --> 00:39:01,991
I got off light. They just beat
me out, that's all.
699
00:39:03,993 --> 00:39:06,735
I'll be fine.
700
00:39:06,822 --> 00:39:08,433
Had to be 'cause of
what you said.
701
00:39:10,783 --> 00:39:12,480
Lewis..
702
00:39:14,700 --> 00:39:17,398
Because of me opening my mouth
they..
703
00:39:17,485 --> 00:39:18,965
...they must have
figured out.
704
00:39:19,052 --> 00:39:21,271
Yeah, I know.
705
00:39:21,359 --> 00:39:24,536
But they also heard you.
706
00:39:24,623 --> 00:39:27,060
'I'm alive, right?'
707
00:39:27,147 --> 00:39:28,801
I'm..
708
00:39:31,020 --> 00:39:33,109
I'm gonna go to college,
just like Malcolm.
709
00:39:36,678 --> 00:39:38,071
I don't know what else to say.
710
00:39:42,945 --> 00:39:44,817
Neither do I.
711
00:39:46,688 --> 00:39:49,691
Lewis, I am so very sorry.
712
00:39:49,778 --> 00:39:52,651
You really don't get it, do you?
713
00:39:52,738 --> 00:39:54,522
I probably owe you my life.
714
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,876
No.
715
00:40:00,963 --> 00:40:03,488
I don't get it at all.
716
00:40:34,432 --> 00:40:37,086
The thing about routine
717
00:40:37,173 --> 00:40:40,394
when it kills you,
it doesn't have to be forever.
718
00:40:42,135 --> 00:40:44,093
If you can just get rid of it
719
00:40:44,180 --> 00:40:47,967
and the hazy blur
that goes with it
720
00:40:48,054 --> 00:40:50,535
life can come back.
721
00:40:50,622 --> 00:40:53,451
With all its glory, its pain.
722
00:40:57,759 --> 00:40:59,152
Oh, how it can come back.
