Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:49,004 --> 00:00:51,313
They're still a little baggy.
2
00:00:51,313 --> 00:00:54,431
That's the style of these days. It's those damn teenagers.
3
00:00:54,431 --> 00:00:57,391
They control fashion. Everything is youth, youth, youth.
4
00:00:57,391 --> 00:00:59,026
Don't teenagers want look good?
5
00:00:59,026 --> 00:01:01,424
Yes. But they like it baggy.
6
00:01:01,424 --> 00:01:03,828
Probably so that boys can conceal their weapons,
7
00:01:03,828 --> 00:01:06,318
and the girls can hide being pregnant.
8
00:01:06,318 --> 00:01:08,242
Blame the schools all you want. But it's the parents.
9
00:01:08,242 --> 00:01:10,743
Children are victims of their parents.
10
00:01:10,743 --> 00:01:11,619
Ma'am ...
11
00:01:11,619 --> 00:01:12,610
You're newly single, aren you.
12
00:01:12,610 --> 00:01:14,162
Ma'am, I, I, I just want a pair ----
13
00:01:14,162 --> 00:01:16,043
I noticed the mark where your ring used to be.
14
00:01:16,043 --> 00:01:16,740
If I could just ----
15
00:01:16,740 --> 00:01:18,847
Newly single women want tight jeans.
16
00:01:18,847 --> 00:01:19,868
If you're going to get a man,
17
00:01:19,868 --> 00:01:21,517
you've got to sell your ass a little, am I right?
18
00:01:21,517 --> 00:01:23,573
Nothing's like ripe rump cheeks
19
00:01:23,573 --> 00:01:25,223
to get a guy interested in your phone number,
20
00:01:25,223 --> 00:01:27,983
am I right? It's vile!
21
00:01:27,983 --> 00:01:30,921
You don't care about how many years I put in.
22
00:01:30,921 --> 00:01:33,429
I've been here for seventeen years!
23
00:01:33,429 --> 00:01:35,477
Does that mean anything to you?
24
00:01:35,477 --> 00:01:38,156
Easy, Steven, take it easy. ... Let me explain!
25
00:01:38,156 --> 00:01:44,635
You son of a bitch!
26
00:01:44,635 --> 00:01:55,392
Hey! What are you ----
27
00:01:55,392 --> 00:02:00,403
You hit Santa!
28
00:02:00,403 --> 00:02:02,474
Oh! Get off her for God's sake! Security!
29
00:02:20,610 --> 00:02:22,157
What is wrong with you!
30
00:02:22,157 --> 00:02:23,698
They attacked me!
31
00:02:23,698 --> 00:02:24,804
No! You attacked us first!
32
00:02:25,226 --> 00:02:26,266
They were just trying to help Santa!
33
00:02:26,266 --> 00:02:27,028
They came after me!
34
00:02:27,293 --> 00:02:28,402
All right, Dana.
35
00:02:28,402 --> 00:02:29,250
I won't let you get away with this, Larry.
36
00:02:29,519 --> 00:02:30,372
Steven.
37
00:02:30,878 --> 00:02:33,670
Seventeen years of service.
38
00:02:33,670 --> 00:02:36,660
Well, ever heard of John Cage?
39
00:02:36,660 --> 00:02:38,671
He's probably the best lawyer in this town.
40
00:02:38,671 --> 00:02:40,073
He will make you pay.
41
00:02:40,073 --> 00:02:42,192
I've offered you another job.
42
00:02:42,192 --> 00:02:46,146
I'm Santa Claus!I am the spirit of Christmas, you son of a bitch!
43
00:02:46,493 --> 00:02:47,755
Steven, shut up!
44
00:02:48,945 --> 00:02:51,657
I will make you pay!
45
00:04:09,762 --> 00:04:10,845
Is he okay?
46
00:04:10,845 --> 00:04:12,578
He's okay. Maybe a broken rib.
47
00:04:12,578 --> 00:04:14,137
Is anyone here pressing charges?
48
00:04:14,137 --> 00:04:17,887
No ... no, it's an internal dispute. Thank you. ...
49
00:04:17,887 --> 00:04:19,180
Are you okay?
50
00:04:19,180 --> 00:04:21,773
Yeah. What happened?
51
00:04:21,773 --> 00:04:24,490
Oh, I fired our Santa Claus.
52
00:04:24,490 --> 00:04:27,395
Everything that happened after, you saw.
53
00:04:30,653 --> 00:04:33,260
And heard. Listen, um ... that lawyer he mentioned, John Cage --
54
00:04:33,260 --> 00:04:36,190
I actually worked with him until about a week ago.
55
00:04:36,190 --> 00:04:39,120
Really? Is he as good as Steven says he is?
56
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,507
I'm afraid he is. ... But I know how to beat him.
57
00:04:44,744 --> 00:04:45,803
You took the case?
58
00:04:45,803 --> 00:04:46,635
Why shouldn't I?
59
00:04:46,635 --> 00:04:49,495
Georgia, what is this about? Beating us, beating me.
60
00:04:49,495 --> 00:04:52,018
Right, Billy. Newman's department store,
61
00:04:52,018 --> 00:04:53,544
and I'm about to turn that down?
62
00:04:53,544 --> 00:04:55,521
Typical for you to think it's all about you!
63
00:04:55,521 --> 00:04:56,976
Stupid, too. But I hear that can happen
64
00:04:56,976 --> 00:04:59,561
when a person soaks his head in bleach for too long.
65
00:04:59,561 --> 00:05:02,570
Georgia, I suggest that you keep our problems between you and me,
66
00:05:02,570 --> 00:05:04,587
and I hope you don't air them out in the courtroom.
67
00:05:04,587 --> 00:05:07,300
Billy. This is about work.
68
00:05:07,300 --> 00:05:09,868
There is nothing going on between you and me.
69
00:05:09,868 --> 00:05:10,670
Really?
70
00:05:10,670 --> 00:05:13,372
Really. Anything else?
71
00:05:13,372 --> 00:05:14,032
Not a thing.
72
00:05:14,032 --> 00:05:14,685
Then get out.
73
00:05:14,685 --> 00:05:16,402
-Fine-Fine
74
00:05:18,518 --> 00:05:19,606
Too fat?
75
00:05:19,606 --> 00:05:23,326
Yes. Believe that? He says I'm too fat to be Santa Claus!
76
00:05:23,326 --> 00:05:25,367
Did he actually cite your physicality?
77
00:05:25,367 --> 00:05:26,329
Yes, yes, he said,
78
00:05:26,329 --> 00:05:28,233
"You're too fat."
79
00:05:28,233 --> 00:05:30,077
Going with a thin Santa this year.
80
00:05:30,077 --> 00:05:31,853
Well, fat is out, and so am I?
81
00:05:31,853 --> 00:05:33,112
If it wasn't your job performance, you ----
82
00:05:33,112 --> 00:05:36,346
No no no no no. He said, "I was too fat."
83
00:05:36,346 --> 00:05:40,606
That is why I am going. Fat, fat, fat!
84
00:05:40,606 --> 00:05:41,962
Why? It's a function of the job, isn't it?
85
00:05:41,962 --> 00:05:43,497
Who ever heard of a slim-fast Santa?
86
00:05:43,497 --> 00:05:44,843
The problem is that if we go with that,
87
00:05:44,843 --> 00:05:46,680
it's okay to hire somebody based on weight,
88
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,790
we can't very well say it's wrongful to fire somebody
89
00:05:48,790 --> 00:05:49,609
because of the weight.
90
00:05:49,609 --> 00:05:50,915
Why, this is America. It's always okay to hire somebody,
91
00:05:50,915 --> 00:05:52,882
it's never okay to fire them.
92
00:05:52,882 --> 00:05:54,163
That's why this country work! Damn it.
93
00:05:54,163 --> 00:05:56,547
How about ageism? If they're going to go with a younger Santa,
94
00:05:56,547 --> 00:05:57,340
then we can argue ----
95
00:05:57,340 --> 00:05:58,315
No. I thought of it. They can get around it.
96
00:05:58,315 --> 00:05:59,796
Basically, they're hiring an actor to play a part.
97
00:05:59,796 --> 00:06:01,242
Now if the part calls for somebody young,
98
00:06:01,242 --> 00:06:03,459
they can't be required to hire an older actor.
99
00:06:03,459 --> 00:06:03,962
Oral contract?
100
00:06:03,962 --> 00:06:07,174
Well, that's the only thing I can think of, but it's weak.
101
00:06:07,174 --> 00:06:09,478
You'll never guess who Newman's hired to represent them!
102
00:06:09,478 --> 00:06:10,086
Who?
103
00:06:10,086 --> 00:06:10,812
Georgia.
104
00:06:10,812 --> 00:06:11,548
What??
105
00:06:11,548 --> 00:06:13,009
I love when I get to tell!
106
00:06:13,009 --> 00:06:15,218
Okay. I think we should mark up a TRO with the clerk's office
107
00:06:15,218 --> 00:06:16,685
and hit them before they have time to dig a bunker.
108
00:06:16,685 --> 00:06:17,483
Ally, can you second-chair?
109
00:06:17,483 --> 00:06:18,494
Mm, sure.
110
00:06:18,494 --> 00:06:19,456
I'll get some more infomation from Steven.
111
00:06:19,456 --> 00:06:20,771
I think we should go as soon as possible.
112
00:06:20,771 --> 00:06:22,317
Okay. ...
113
00:06:35,541 --> 00:06:36,734
Excuse me, are, are you lost?
114
00:06:37,923 --> 00:06:38,595
Are you?
115
00:06:41,037 --> 00:06:42,486
You have to help him!
116
00:06:46,488 --> 00:06:48,468
Ally ... Ally?
117
00:06:49,309 --> 00:06:52,426
Huh ... ah, Ling. Huh, hi, hel-hello.
118
00:06:53,524 --> 00:06:53,970
Wh-what, what's up?
119
00:06:54,220 --> 00:06:54,730
Relax. I'm not going to kiss you.
120
00:06:56,901 --> 00:06:58,403
Ha ha! He he he, whoo, that, that, that, that's a good one.Hahahahaha ...
121
00:06:58,956 --> 00:06:59,591
What's the matter?
122
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:04,538
Umm ... um, nothing. I, I just uh ... bumped into an old friend ...
123
00:07:06,601 --> 00:07:07,637
me.
124
00:07:09,057 --> 00:07:11,773
And unn ... well, that ... I ...
125
00:07:17,271 --> 00:07:17,904
Now what?
126
00:07:18,256 --> 00:07:18,950
Who knows?
127
00:07:26,798 --> 00:07:28,898
Nobody else can help him but you!
128
00:07:29,787 --> 00:07:30,551
Aah! ...
129
00:07:39,432 --> 00:07:40,249
What do you want?
130
00:07:40,805 --> 00:07:43,862
Shouldn't you be out bleaching your head or kissing some client?
131
00:07:44,149 --> 00:07:46,673
Great. I need somebody to talk to.I see I've come to the wrong office.
132
00:07:47,070 --> 00:07:49,976
Somebody to talk to? Well, talk to you cheater, pig, traitor!
133
00:07:50,173 --> 00:07:52,931
Gee, Ally, I didn't see you react this waywhen I kissed another woman last year.
134
00:07:53,164 --> 00:07:53,820
Because it was me!
135
00:07:54,085 --> 00:07:54,512
Exactly!
136
00:07:55,032 --> 00:07:56,458
And now you've completely trivialized it,cheating on Georgia with me,
137
00:07:56,674 --> 00:07:59,384
by cheating on her with somebody else,with a woman you barely know, you lying,
138
00:07:59,556 --> 00:08:01,190
cheating piiig! ...
139
00:08:03,249 --> 00:08:06,701
I thought that our deceitful little affair meant something!
140
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:08,087
Hey, can't you see I'm hurting?
141
00:08:08,354 --> 00:08:08,681
Ha!
142
00:08:08,929 --> 00:08:09,273
Ha?
143
00:08:09,668 --> 00:08:10,005
Yes. Ha! ...
144
00:08:12,369 --> 00:08:14,077
Why the hell did you kiss that woman?
145
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:19,397
You didn't come down on Georgiawhen she was sucking tongue with your father.
146
00:08:21,107 --> 00:08:24,407
Billy, I don't believe that violence solves anything.
147
00:08:24,649 --> 00:08:27,641
So you should leave before I leap to a poor solution!
148
00:08:32,967 --> 00:08:33,542
There was no contract.
149
00:08:33,846 --> 00:08:36,470
There was an oral contract. Not to mention the fact that ----
150
00:08:36,688 --> 00:08:38,151
Well, certainly the store should have a right.
151
00:08:38,375 --> 00:08:38,873
You cannot terminate a person for obesity.
152
00:08:40,553 --> 00:08:42,236
It is wrongful especially when we're trying about Santa Claus,
153
00:08:42,462 --> 00:08:44,233
where being stout is a function of the job.
154
00:08:44,697 --> 00:08:45,893
Not the new Newman's Santa.
155
00:08:46,325 --> 00:08:47,623
What do you mean, the new Santa?
156
00:08:47,862 --> 00:08:51,408
Newman's has decided to go with the new, lean, health-conscious Santa Claus.
157
00:08:51,626 --> 00:08:53,541
He's more commensurate with the store's demographics.
158
00:08:54,077 --> 00:08:55,877
Fat and jolly belongs at Walmart.
159
00:08:56,252 --> 00:08:59,766
At Newman's, sitting on Santa's lap should be its own reward.
160
00:09:00,376 --> 00:09:01,233
What are you talking about?
161
00:09:01,786 --> 00:09:03,164
Things have changed in the North Pole.
162
00:09:03,499 --> 00:09:06,707
May I present to the court Kristopher and Kristen Kringle!
163
00:09:09,770 --> 00:09:12,202
This is your new Mr. and Mrs. Claus?
164
00:09:12,572 --> 00:09:15,514
Naughty or nice, Judge, come to Newman's and find out.
165
00:09:15,882 --> 00:09:17,266
Your Honor, in the spirit of Christmas tradition,
166
00:09:17,467 --> 00:09:19,456
let us all take a serious, extended moment.
167
00:09:19,911 --> 00:09:22,285
Mr. Cage, we will not be taking moments.
168
00:09:22,751 --> 00:09:25,803
The only issue before this court is whether or not there was an oral contract,
169
00:09:26,434 --> 00:09:27,659
and whether it was wrongfully breached.
170
00:09:28,125 --> 00:09:28,901
With that we'll have a hearing.
171
00:09:29,511 --> 00:09:35,471
I'll hear from fat Santa after lunch -- I mean, Mr. Mallory. Adjourned.
172
00:09:40,514 --> 00:09:42,971
"Sitting in his lap is its own reward"?
173
00:09:43,694 --> 00:09:45,201
There was no contract here, Ally.
174
00:09:46,245 --> 00:09:46,899
Let's go.
175
00:09:47,141 --> 00:09:49,716
Uh,weu-weu-weu-wait, wait,wait. Um ...
176
00:09:50,770 --> 00:09:53,023
Georgia, how are you doing?
177
00:09:53,699 --> 00:09:54,592
Who's asking?
178
00:09:54,931 --> 00:09:58,915
Well ... Elaine, actually. She wants to tell people. ...
179
00:10:01,299 --> 00:10:05,961
And me! I'm asking. Are you okay?
180
00:10:06,496 --> 00:10:12,714
Fine. I just went on this new diet.I lost 170 pounds of dead weight. Feel great.
181
00:10:13,764 --> 00:10:14,460
Are you sure?
182
00:10:15,334 --> 00:10:16,581
You can have him, Ally.
183
00:10:16,810 --> 00:10:17,442
I don't want him! ...
184
00:10:19,285 --> 00:10:22,479
Yuck! Ew, gross!
185
00:10:44,338 --> 00:10:46,944
He never specifically promised youthat you could continue being Santa?
186
00:10:47,656 --> 00:10:52,245
Well, it, it was just understood. I mean,I was Santa before he even worked there.
187
00:10:52,666 --> 00:10:55,310
It, it was just a given that I would be Santa forever at Newman's ----
188
00:10:55,613 --> 00:10:57,028
We've got a statute of frauds problem.
189
00:10:57,294 --> 00:11:00,927
If it's a forever thing or more than a year,the promise can't be oral.
190
00:11:01,218 --> 00:11:01,984
It's got to be written.
191
00:11:02,177 --> 00:11:05,392
You need to be able to say that he promised youfor this year specifically that you would be Santa.
192
00:11:07,452 --> 00:11:10,964
Oh, Steven ... Steven, don't cry.
193
00:11:11,732 --> 00:11:12,093
I'm sorry.
194
00:11:12,530 --> 00:11:14,308
He has a duct problem with his left eye,
195
00:11:14,572 --> 00:11:16,996
whenever he gets emotional ... well, happy, sad ...
196
00:11:17,486 --> 00:11:18,671
He cries out of one eye?
197
00:11:21,561 --> 00:11:23,724
You know, an oral contract can be implied.
198
00:11:23,908 --> 00:11:26,263
Did he give you instructions? Tell you to push certain toys?
199
00:11:27,485 --> 00:11:27,865
I'll have to think.
200
00:11:35,646 --> 00:11:37,063
We've got nothing. You do know that.
201
00:11:37,514 --> 00:11:38,483
Well, there's got to be something.
202
00:11:40,261 --> 00:11:41,866
What about the threat of negative publicity?
203
00:11:42,201 --> 00:11:44,200
This is Newman's. They throw the big Christmas Parade.
204
00:11:44,406 --> 00:11:46,877
To fire Santa Claus right before Christmas? Not very sympathetic.
205
00:11:47,154 --> 00:11:49,973
Well, some people don't really carehow unsympathetic they come off.
206
00:11:51,302 --> 00:11:51,861
You know what, Ally?
207
00:11:52,303 --> 00:11:53,155
Uh, eh-pokep-pokeep ...
208
00:11:53,379 --> 00:11:54,144
I won't be judged by you!
209
00:11:54,553 --> 00:11:55,533
Too late. The verdict is in. Pig!
210
00:11:56,431 --> 00:11:57,637
Georgia is the one who strayed first.
211
00:11:57,858 --> 00:12:01,086
After you bleached your head. After you turned into a chauvinist.
212
00:12:01,325 --> 00:12:03,295
After you hired your little candy-striper assistant! ...
213
00:12:05,894 --> 00:12:08,060
Georgia had the right to sit on that bar stool.
214
00:12:09,229 --> 00:12:10,775
Did it entitle her to kiss somebody?
215
00:12:10,972 --> 00:12:12,462
No. But you owed it to her to find out why she did it.
216
00:12:12,623 --> 00:12:14,648
You owed her some exploration of the why, Billy.
217
00:12:14,823 --> 00:12:16,939
And instead, you kissed some gold-digging bombshell client!
218
00:12:17,260 --> 00:12:19,098
And that is what you're upset about!
219
00:12:19,278 --> 00:12:23,313
Not that I betrayed Georgia, but that I kissed somebody else,that I betrayed you.
220
00:12:23,656 --> 00:12:27,614
It's just like you said, you're upset that I demean my affair with you!
221
00:12:28,623 --> 00:12:32,481
Well, you know, there're two kinds of pigs: chauvinist pigs and selfish pigs.
222
00:12:32,690 --> 00:12:35,569
I am one, you're the other. Maybe there's some chemistry here --
223
00:12:35,845 --> 00:12:37,201
two pigs looking to pod each other!
224
00:12:37,613 --> 00:12:40,011
If you think I'm going to go near your pod,you're as deluded as deranged!
225
00:12:40,379 --> 00:12:41,731
Oh, now I'm deranged, too?
226
00:12:42,169 --> 00:12:42,880
And pathetic. ...
227
00:12:49,465 --> 00:12:50,159
It's nice.
228
00:12:56,150 --> 00:12:58,470
You were paid a day-rate, were you not, Mr. Mallory?
229
00:12:58,994 --> 00:12:59,501
Yes.
230
00:12:59,737 --> 00:13:04,438
And, if another job came along,if maybe you decided to switch careers, you're free to do so. Correct?
231
00:13:04,767 --> 00:13:08,443
Your Honor, if I may,I'd like to instruct my client to answer "no" to that question.
232
00:13:08,677 --> 00:13:09,092
Hey!
233
00:13:09,445 --> 00:13:09,888
Mr. Cage!
234
00:13:10,112 --> 00:13:11,354
Well, I apologize, but she's trying to establish,
235
00:13:11,545 --> 00:13:14,223
if my client felt no binding obligation to work at Newman's,
236
00:13:14,373 --> 00:13:16,838
then they accordingly should feel no binding obligation towards him.
237
00:13:17,545 --> 00:13:20,449
It's a clever, yet tricky question.Therefore, imperative that my client answer no.
238
00:13:20,757 --> 00:13:23,924
Mr. Cage, I've had enough of you. Do you hear me?
239
00:13:24,507 --> 00:13:28,371
I do. Let me go on record:"I would be shocked and dismayed if you let your contempt for me punish Santa Claus."
240
00:13:29,553 --> 00:13:32,877
Your Honor, I, I've practiced law with this man,and when he stunts like this ----
241
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,192
I will not be attacked simply because I'm short!
242
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:36,474
What??
243
00:13:37,050 --> 00:13:37,262
The record will reflect she kicks midgets.
244
00:13:38,358 --> 00:13:39,217
You've got to be kidding!
245
00:13:39,434 --> 00:13:41,589
Mr. Cage, let her ask her question!
246
00:13:47,238 --> 00:13:50,470
Mr. Mallory, since your termination,have you been offered any other jobs?
247
00:13:50,844 --> 00:13:51,231
Yes, many.
248
00:13:51,666 --> 00:13:52,280
To play Santa Claus?
249
00:13:52,902 --> 00:13:56,305
Y-yes, but Newman's Santa Claus --to people in New England,
250
00:13:56,501 --> 00:13:59,622
he is the Santa Claus. Everybody knows that.
251
00:13:59,926 --> 00:14:03,365
Uh, but in terms of income, you have been offered an employment
252
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,328
that would more than make up for lost wages, correct?
253
00:14:07,652 --> 00:14:08,660
Hummph, yes.
254
00:14:19,732 --> 00:14:20,544
You tried ageism?
255
00:14:21,205 --> 00:14:21,894
No, it won't fly.
256
00:14:22,117 --> 00:14:23,257
A-and weight? He, he ...
257
00:14:23,523 --> 00:14:23,948
I told you, they're hiring an actor.
258
00:14:24,175 --> 00:14:25,625
They can designate type: if it's thin ----
259
00:14:25,868 --> 00:14:28,065
If he's gay? You can't fire homosexuals these days.
260
00:14:28,243 --> 00:14:30,970
Or maybe he's part Indian, uh, that's good. Indians are in.
261
00:14:31,187 --> 00:14:32,527
He's a white Anglo heterosexual.
262
00:14:32,701 --> 00:14:34,734
The law doesn't care about him. We need real merits.
263
00:14:35,293 --> 00:14:36,460
He should have joined a union.
264
00:14:36,652 --> 00:14:38,268
They'd never be able to fire him if he were in a union.
265
00:14:38,441 --> 00:14:39,549
Even if he was touching the children.
266
00:14:39,982 --> 00:14:42,498
Look, you're dead. Why can't he just go be a Santa Claus at Sears?
267
00:14:42,744 --> 00:14:45,092
Because this is Newman's. That's why the others want him,
268
00:14:45,271 --> 00:14:47,934
because the Newman's Santa Claus, that's Santa.
269
00:14:48,243 --> 00:14:52,855
Yeah. I remember when I was little. I hated Christmas,'cause my parents weren't together.
270
00:14:53,050 --> 00:14:59,296
So, I'd go to Newman's and just sitting on his lap,and Christmas just became real.
271
00:15:00,652 --> 00:15:03,523
Everything else went away. He was uh, magic.
272
00:15:05,777 --> 00:15:06,870
Would you testify to that?
273
00:15:07,823 --> 00:15:08,526
Excuse me?
274
00:15:09,391 --> 00:15:14,587
I have an idea. We need to take this to another court.
275
00:15:15,170 --> 00:15:17,601
Would you say what you just said on the stand?
276
00:15:18,580 --> 00:15:20,838
Well ... I guess.
277
00:15:35,951 --> 00:15:36,731
I'll probably be a fireman.
278
00:15:36,986 --> 00:15:38,412
They don't make much money, you know.
279
00:15:38,602 --> 00:15:40,495
I don't care. I get to help people.
280
00:15:41,739 --> 00:15:43,420
Artists don't make much either, you know.
281
00:15:52,808 --> 00:15:59,842
What's the matter? ... Ally ... Ally?
282
00:16:00,224 --> 00:16:00,611
Hm?
283
00:16:00,928 --> 00:16:01,567
What's wrong?
284
00:16:03,206 --> 00:16:06,048
Uh, uh ... um, I've, well, um ... I,
285
00:16:09,313 --> 00:16:13,798
I've been getting these visions of myself at age ten.
286
00:16:14,295 --> 00:16:17,313
And she keeps on saying, "You have to save him.You have to save him," and,
287
00:16:17,544 --> 00:16:20,562
and I thought that she meant Santa Claus and,and, and suddenly I ...
288
00:16:25,767 --> 00:16:27,012
That's not who she means.
289
00:16:28,166 --> 00:16:29,200
What does she mean?
290
00:16:30,465 --> 00:16:32,390
I, I ... I think that, um ...
291
00:16:34,613 --> 00:16:38,429
well, I think that she wants me to save you.
292
00:16:41,674 --> 00:16:44,648
Save me? Why do I need to be saved?
293
00:16:45,534 --> 00:16:49,737
I don't know. I ...I, I always figured of all people that I need saving more ...
294
00:16:52,591 --> 00:16:57,382
Do you remember how we'd talk about what we'd be when we grew up?
295
00:16:59,133 --> 00:17:00,029
You remember?
296
00:17:02,397 --> 00:17:03,081
Not really.
297
00:17:05,576 --> 00:17:06,401
You don't? ...
298
00:17:10,384 --> 00:17:11,285
Well, um ...
299
00:17:12,806 --> 00:17:16,297
You, you were going to be either a doctor or a fireman,
300
00:17:16,632 --> 00:17:19,982
because you wanted to be able to helpat least one person every single day. And ...
301
00:17:21,384 --> 00:17:26,565
I was going to be an artist, and,and paint the world with beautiful colors. ...
302
00:17:30,144 --> 00:17:33,283
And we became lawyers. ...
303
00:17:35,586 --> 00:17:36,450
How did that happen?
304
00:17:40,946 --> 00:17:44,700
Maybe, we both need saving.
305
00:17:48,558 --> 00:17:53,848
Hmm. No, she keeps saying, " You have to save him." ...
306
00:17:57,162 --> 00:18:02,815
Maybe because at least I can remember. You can't even do that.
307
00:18:17,216 --> 00:18:20,160
And sitting on his lap, you believed.
308
00:18:22,066 --> 00:18:27,789
We knew every store had a Santa,some guy from the Salvation Army with cotton glued to his chin.
309
00:18:28,898 --> 00:18:37,197
This one at Newman's, to a six-year-old, he was real.
310
00:18:38,189 --> 00:18:44,290
I'm confused. Are you a fan of real? Or is it fantasy?
311
00:18:44,879 --> 00:18:49,534
I suppose there's something to be said of realityblurring with the make-believe.
312
00:18:50,682 --> 00:18:52,060
Oh, you mean, like your hair?
313
00:18:52,706 --> 00:18:55,470
Gee, Georgia,do you suddenly have a problem with long blonde-haired women?
314
00:18:55,841 --> 00:18:56,283
All right!
315
00:18:56,676 --> 00:18:56,972
Okay!
316
00:18:57,420 --> 00:18:58,173
I don't have anything else.
317
00:19:03,004 --> 00:19:05,563
Your Honor, I call James Russell to the stand.
318
00:19:06,351 --> 00:19:09,321
How long have you been CEO of Newman's department store?
319
00:19:09,607 --> 00:19:10,269
Eleven years.
320
00:19:10,586 --> 00:19:13,597
And for all that time, Steven Mallory has been your Santa Claus, has he not?
321
00:19:13,817 --> 00:19:14,556
He has in fact.
322
00:19:14,845 --> 00:19:16,551
But, Mr. Russell, suddenly you're ...
323
00:19:16,987 --> 00:19:18,100
I should say, two days ago ...
324
00:19:21,393 --> 00:19:22,876
Your Honor, he tried to hit me.
325
00:19:23,657 --> 00:19:25,157
I apologize. I have a nervous tic.
326
00:19:25,504 --> 00:19:29,010
When I get nervous, my arm shoots out, and I can't control it.
327
00:19:29,536 --> 00:19:32,510
And in extreme circumstances, both arms do it. I ...
328
00:19:33,056 --> 00:19:34,358
I was not trying to hit you.
329
00:19:35,070 --> 00:19:40,892
Oh ... Mr. Russell, can you tell uswhy you suddenly terminated Mr. Mallory,
330
00:19:41,345 --> 00:19:43,350
and opted to go with a more lean, ripped version?
331
00:19:43,750 --> 00:19:49,070
Uh, the ad agencies have been telling us for yearsthe 18-49-year-olds are the shoppers,
332
00:19:49,296 --> 00:19:50,596
they're the ones who spend the money.
333
00:19:50,807 --> 00:19:53,976
We've been making all sorts of changesto broaden our appeal to this demographic.
334
00:19:55,836 --> 00:19:57,048
Well, including a thin Santa Claus?
335
00:19:57,272 --> 00:19:59,450
We should see the teenaged girls lining up to sit on him.
336
00:19:59,689 --> 00:20:03,282
Yeah, but don't you see anything wrong with having uh,a hard body serve ----
337
00:20:03,474 --> 00:20:05,762
Television works this way. Why can't a department store?
338
00:20:06,450 --> 00:20:09,072
Mr. Russell, would you agree that, uh, the Newman's Santa,
339
00:20:09,252 --> 00:20:11,750
he's always been the preeminent Santa Claus in New England?
340
00:20:11,943 --> 00:20:12,513
He still can be.
341
00:20:12,714 --> 00:20:13,654
Leads the Christmas parade?
342
00:20:13,822 --> 00:20:14,341
Still will.
343
00:20:14,510 --> 00:20:15,316
Like Ms. Porter testified,
344
00:20:15,483 --> 00:20:18,001
"When kids want to see the real Santa Claus, come to Newman's" --
345
00:20:18,210 --> 00:20:19,211
that's what you advertise?
346
00:20:19,459 --> 00:20:19,715
Yes.
347
00:20:20,131 --> 00:20:20,853
You've also stressed commitment to community.
348
00:20:20,853 --> 00:20:21,474
Has Newman's not done that, Mr. Russell?
349
00:20:23,685 --> 00:20:27,232
Yes. And um, we will continue to emphasize that ideal.
350
00:20:28,279 --> 00:20:31,715
Mm-hm. Uh, what about tradition? "Since 1912," that's in your logo.
351
00:20:32,221 --> 00:20:35,380
Uh, haven't you always thought traditions as part of Newman's heritage?
352
00:20:35,629 --> 00:20:40,103
Of course. But an alegiance to tradition,it certainly doesn't preempt changing with the times.
353
00:20:40,903 --> 00:20:43,448
Yeah, that was a dandy answer. Your shareholders would be proud.
354
00:20:43,661 --> 00:20:44,321
Objection!
355
00:20:44,565 --> 00:20:45,005
Sustained.
356
00:20:45,426 --> 00:20:47,231
How much of your business is repeat business?
357
00:20:47,464 --> 00:20:48,373
Almost sixty percent.
358
00:20:48,695 --> 00:20:49,887
Mm-hm. So, loyalty is important?
359
00:20:50,278 --> 00:20:50,566
Yes.
360
00:20:51,029 --> 00:20:53,634
Yeah. Uh, "Give back to your customers,give back to the communities," is that right?
361
00:20:53,834 --> 00:20:55,064
Yes, that is the Newman's way.
362
00:20:55,258 --> 00:20:57,700
And your coustomers know that when they come to Newman's, don't they?
363
00:20:57,883 --> 00:20:58,544
I would hope so.
364
00:20:58,724 --> 00:21:01,175
That uh, that parade, a lot of people turn out for that parade, don't they?
365
00:21:01,361 --> 00:21:01,721
Yes.
366
00:21:01,965 --> 00:21:02,757
Couple of hundred thousand or so?
367
00:21:02,929 --> 00:21:03,623
It's a big parade.
368
00:21:03,793 --> 00:21:04,920
Uh-huh. It's also televised?
369
00:21:05,068 --> 00:21:05,623
Yes, it is.
370
00:21:05,782 --> 00:21:08,355
Yes. What do you think all your loyal customers are going to say to their children
371
00:21:08,563 --> 00:21:10,308
when they see this thin, young Santa?
372
00:21:10,490 --> 00:21:11,051
I would hope ----
373
00:21:11,484 --> 00:21:12,478
Do they say, "There is no Santa"?
374
00:21:12,636 --> 00:21:15,039
Do they tell their children, well, they just fall outside Newman's demographic?
375
00:21:15,209 --> 00:21:16,124
That -- whooosh! -- isn't fair.
376
00:21:16,364 --> 00:21:19,888
Fair? Does "fair" count here? Let me talk about fair, Mr. Russell.
377
00:21:20,089 --> 00:21:20,666
Objection!
378
00:21:20,832 --> 00:21:24,648
Sustained. Dial it back, Mr. Cage. Are you okay, sir?
379
00:21:24,838 --> 00:21:25,876
I, I, I'm fine.
380
00:21:27,544 --> 00:21:28,755
Well, talking about fairness ...
381
00:22:09,317 --> 00:22:09,774
Billy.
382
00:22:10,460 --> 00:22:10,781
Hey.
383
00:22:12,473 --> 00:22:12,725
What are you doing?
384
00:22:13,589 --> 00:22:14,167
Nothing.
385
00:22:14,626 --> 00:22:16,296
Excellent. I love that. It's why I hired you.
386
00:22:17,558 --> 00:22:19,057
You ever remember your dreams, Richard?
387
00:22:19,293 --> 00:22:20,932
The wet ones. I try to. Why?
388
00:22:21,555 --> 00:22:25,945
I'm serious. Do you ever sit back and take stock ofwhat you planned for yourself in high school,
389
00:22:26,276 --> 00:22:27,951
and then measure it against what you are?
390
00:22:28,191 --> 00:22:29,504
You mean, do I wonder whether I sold out?
391
00:22:29,864 --> 00:22:30,314
Yeah.
392
00:22:30,516 --> 00:22:32,121
Sometimes. But I've always planned to sell out.
393
00:22:32,298 --> 00:22:32,826
So, I'm living my dream.
394
00:22:33,554 --> 00:22:33,882
Forget it.
395
00:22:34,126 --> 00:22:35,815
Billy, obviously you're going through something.
396
00:22:36,064 --> 00:22:38,105
And you're no doubt upset with yourself for being a total schmuck.
397
00:22:38,284 --> 00:22:40,809
But what you need to keep in mind: Before this, you were boring.
398
00:22:41,012 --> 00:22:44,494
Whatever phase you're going through, embrace it.Because at least it's interesting.
399
00:22:44,742 --> 00:22:47,313
Sure, you look a little silly as this Billy Idol horndogger.
400
00:22:47,527 --> 00:22:49,533
But what's important: People are talking about you.
401
00:22:51,222 --> 00:22:53,593
Thank you, Richard. I feel much better.
402
00:22:53,823 --> 00:22:54,671
Yeah? Any time.
403
00:22:57,112 --> 00:22:59,152
Richard, what do you see yourself twenty years from now?
404
00:22:59,369 --> 00:23:00,632
Now, see, there's your mistake, Billy.
405
00:23:00,905 --> 00:23:04,782
By not asking that question of myself now,twenty years hence, I won't be disappointed.
406
00:23:06,762 --> 00:23:13,966
But here's a question you can ask yourself:Why did you kiss that woman? Really?
407
00:23:16,387 --> 00:23:19,218
He talked about loyalties to the shoppers, repeat shoppers;
408
00:23:19,411 --> 00:23:22,263
commitment to community; the obligation to give something back.
409
00:23:22,463 --> 00:23:24,256
He told you -- that man!
410
00:23:25,058 --> 00:23:27,112
Children sat on that Santa's lap and grew up,
411
00:23:27,333 --> 00:23:31,157
patronizing Newman's, dreaming of one day taking their children to sit on Santa's lap,
412
00:23:31,344 --> 00:23:33,204
in that same spirit of Christmas.
413
00:23:33,476 --> 00:23:36,880
That spirit of tradition that he laid claim to -- that man!
414
00:23:37,485 --> 00:23:40,822
This tradition calls for them to obliterate the image of Kriss Kringle?
415
00:23:41,063 --> 00:23:42,431
Does commitment to community say:
416
00:23:42,649 --> 00:23:45,620
"Hey, for the biggest Christmas parade in New England, let's shatter Santa!
417
00:23:45,810 --> 00:23:48,999
Focus on demographics! Eighteen to forty-nine! Will they shop? ==
418
00:23:49,215 --> 00:23:52,274
the heck with Santa! The heck with, with children!
419
00:23:52,496 --> 00:23:54,142
The heck with Yuletide Magic!
420
00:23:54,342 --> 00:23:56,982
Who cares whether children believe in jolly old Santa Nick! ..."
421
00:23:56,982 --> 00:23:57,682
" ... If they want to see Santa,
422
00:23:57,893 --> 00:24:00,032
let them go to Walmart, let them go to Sears!
423
00:24:00,224 --> 00:24:01,818
Let them go to Service Merchandise!
424
00:24:02,054 --> 00:24:05,843
Next, let's go after Rudolph, Frosty! Then, we can kill the Easter bunny!"
425
00:24:06,203 --> 00:24:08,643
Objection! He planned these children in the gallery!
426
00:24:08,847 --> 00:24:10,150
Oh, turn a deaf ear! He does!
427
00:24:10,326 --> 00:24:10,947
Objection!
428
00:24:11,114 --> 00:24:11,834
Pay no attention to these tears!
429
00:24:12,012 --> 00:24:12,589
Objection!
430
00:24:12,797 --> 00:24:13,441
Go kick an elf!
431
00:24:13,582 --> 00:24:14,555
Ob-jeeection!
432
00:24:14,809 --> 00:24:18,741
That's enough! Remove the crying children from my courtroom! Now!
433
00:24:20,874 --> 00:24:23,776
Mr. Russell, stop the flapping!
434
00:24:27,853 --> 00:24:28,840
Was that effective?
435
00:24:29,358 --> 00:24:30,972
That seemed a little outrageous, John.
436
00:24:31,182 --> 00:24:35,744
Well, a judge can be influenced by public opinion almost as much as a department store.
437
00:24:35,974 --> 00:24:38,922
Y-yeah, but ... did you rent those children?
438
00:24:39,110 --> 00:24:40,267
What the hell was that!
439
00:24:40,436 --> 00:24:41,229
You've already objected, Georgia.
440
00:24:41,580 --> 00:24:41,905
Georgia?
441
00:24:42,118 --> 00:24:42,777
That was despicable!
442
00:24:42,931 --> 00:24:43,362
All right.
443
00:24:43,547 --> 00:24:46,017
Oh, get out of my way! I don't have to put up with you anymore!
444
00:24:52,564 --> 00:24:54,776
I'm sorry. I ... I didn't mean that.
445
00:24:57,997 --> 00:24:59,933
Can I please talk to you?
446
00:25:10,002 --> 00:25:14,219
Clearly, you're not fine. You, you're very angry.
447
00:25:17,234 --> 00:25:19,729
Do you blame me for Billy kissing that woman?
448
00:25:21,178 --> 00:25:22,344
Well, it's okay to, Georgia. ==
449
00:25:22,514 --> 00:25:24,957
I certainly didn't help things between you two.
450
00:25:25,139 --> 00:25:28,517
But, but look, for, for you two, not to talk, to do just ----
451
00:25:28,731 --> 00:25:30,996
What? You want to get us back together now, Ally?
452
00:25:31,408 --> 00:25:33,997
I've got to let your guilt have a life now, too?
453
00:25:37,314 --> 00:25:38,926
That isn't fair.
454
00:25:41,339 --> 00:25:46,491
Don't worry about me, Ally. I am fine.
455
00:25:53,707 --> 00:25:54,722
Fine.
456
00:26:55,483 --> 00:26:56,052
He-he-hey!
457
00:26:56,479 --> 00:26:57,270
Billy, you having a good time?
458
00:26:57,456 --> 00:26:59,026
As a matter of fact, yes.
459
00:26:59,184 --> 00:27:01,272
Thing is, usually when you say you're having a good time,
460
00:27:01,449 --> 00:27:02,816
it usually means that you're not.
461
00:27:02,988 --> 00:27:05,201
Ally, did you come here to dance, or save me?
462
00:27:05,373 --> 00:27:07,232
Oh, see, I just came to have some fun,
463
00:27:07,417 --> 00:27:09,222
because that's what this is. Right?
464
00:27:09,561 --> 00:27:09,886
Right.
465
00:27:12,724 --> 00:27:13,889
It's not too late.
466
00:27:14,190 --> 00:27:15,235
Nope. The night's young!
467
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:47,152
So, what happens now?
468
00:27:47,410 --> 00:27:49,797
Well, they give their final statements, and the judge will rule.
469
00:27:50,008 --> 00:27:51,112
Well, we should get going.
470
00:27:51,666 --> 00:27:54,199
I had a dream last night that Santa kept coming down my chimney.
471
00:27:54,901 --> 00:27:58,303
Over and over and over again ----
472
00:27:58,485 --> 00:27:58,970
Never mind, Elaine!
473
00:27:59,375 --> 00:28:03,453
Maybe we could get some coffee. Maybe dinner?
474
00:28:03,754 --> 00:28:05,738
All right! Are you going to date Ling?
475
00:28:06,858 --> 00:28:07,960
It's none of your business ----
476
00:28:08,134 --> 00:28:09,104
Well, who are you trying to kid besides yourself?
477
00:28:09,275 --> 00:28:12,434
Why wouldn't you want to date me? He has a penis.
478
00:28:14,332 --> 00:28:15,443
Ally, we have to go.
479
00:28:15,948 --> 00:28:17,290
I, I want to talk to you when I ----
480
00:28:17,447 --> 00:28:17,922
Since when do you care?
481
00:28:18,077 --> 00:28:18,702
Since now. Since, since ----
482
00:28:18,854 --> 00:28:20,156
Get away from me!
483
00:28:30,476 --> 00:28:33,564
First of all, they introduce no evidence of a binding contract.
484
00:28:34,049 --> 00:28:37,793
Second: this, this filibuster he launched into about giving back to the community.
485
00:28:38,561 --> 00:28:40,244
The community has no standing.
486
00:28:40,783 --> 00:28:42,721
Your Honor, "filibuster" is a senatorial term.
487
00:28:42,919 --> 00:28:45,475
It's bad enough for me to endure this scuzzy image of lawyer.
488
00:28:45,651 --> 00:28:48,713
I refuse to sink deeper and be likened to a member of Congress.
489
00:28:48,973 --> 00:28:49,722
Mr. Cage ...
490
00:28:49,912 --> 00:28:52,725
I suppose I could be called worse, like a Santa Claus killer.
491
00:28:53,143 --> 00:28:55,126
One more word, I find for the defendant.
492
00:28:58,363 --> 00:29:03,826
And then, third: this idea of destroying the myth of Santa,
493
00:29:03,826 --> 00:29:06,585
it's not Newman's responsibility to preserve this lie.
494
00:29:06,585 --> 00:29:11,236
In fact, one could argue they'd be doing a service to children by exposing the truth.
495
00:29:11,236 --> 00:29:14,304
You want to know the number one infliction of today's adults?
496
00:29:14,304 --> 00:29:15,773
It's disillusionment.
497
00:29:16,253 --> 00:29:21,800
Maybe if we could cure this, this addiction to the dreamat an earlier stage, people ...
498
00:29:23,949 --> 00:29:26,772
maybe it could spare them pain down the road. ...
499
00:29:28,172 --> 00:29:32,829
Sugarplums and family holidays, Christmas stockings ----
500
00:29:33,043 --> 00:29:35,420
I think you're getting off track, counsel.
501
00:29:35,420 --> 00:29:39,138
We all get off track. A-and that's my point. ...
502
00:29:39,138 --> 00:29:45,631
Believing in fairy tales, believing ...
503
00:29:45,631 --> 00:29:52,335
At the end of the day, life is just this big wall of realitythat we all crash into.
504
00:29:52,335 --> 00:29:56,222
And maybe, maybe kids should get a dose of itwhen young.
505
00:29:56,222 --> 00:30:04,449
Maybe it would give them thicker skin and ...
506
00:30:04,449 --> 00:30:10,878
My client isn't killing Santa Claus, Your Honor.
507
00:30:10,878 --> 00:30:16,093
He doesn't exist. ... He doesn't.
508
00:30:16,093 --> 00:30:19,696
Your Honor, could we take a break?
509
00:30:19,696 --> 00:30:22,192
Ms. Thomas, are you finished?
510
00:30:22,192 --> 00:30:23,021
She's finished.
511
00:30:28,394 --> 00:30:31,744
You're probably sick of me butting into your life, Georgia.
512
00:30:31,744 --> 00:30:33,338
But I am going to do it one more time.
513
00:30:33,338 --> 00:30:34,119
I am not ----
514
00:30:34,119 --> 00:30:41,657
YOU'RE GOING TO LISTEN TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY !!!
515
00:30:41,657 --> 00:30:43,131
Now you kissed my father
516
00:30:43,131 --> 00:30:44,578
because you were angry with Billy, and, and
517
00:30:44,578 --> 00:30:47,714
Billy kissed that, that Robin Jonesbecause he was angry at you.
518
00:30:47,714 --> 00:30:50,589
We have two angry peoplewho couldn't possibly be so angry
519
00:30:50,589 --> 00:30:52,727
if they still didn't love. I am not finished!
520
00:30:52,727 --> 00:30:55,253
Stop screaming!
521
00:30:58,889 --> 00:31:00,840
Now, maybe you two should break up.
522
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,613
But, but how can you not talk first?
523
00:31:02,613 --> 00:31:06,404
How can you just reel off in anger without at least ----
524
00:31:06,404 --> 00:31:07,387
Talk to what?
525
00:31:07,387 --> 00:31:09,318
S-some Neanderthal who thinks my day
526
00:31:09,318 --> 00:31:10,621
should get meaning from rubbing his feet?
527
00:31:10,621 --> 00:31:12,660
Georgia, I grew up with Billy.
528
00:31:12,660 --> 00:31:13,380
Yeah, I know.
529
00:31:13,380 --> 00:31:14,932
WOULD YOU LET ME FINISH?
530
00:31:14,932 --> 00:31:15,705
STOP SCREAMING!
531
00:31:15,705 --> 00:31:16,237
I WIILL LISTEN TO YOU IF YOU DON'T SCREAM !!!
532
00:31:16,237 --> 00:31:19,795
NO, I WON'T HAVE TO SCREAM IF YOU LET ME FINISH !!!
533
00:31:23,812 --> 00:31:25,982
Billy grew up in a home where his dad was king,
534
00:31:25,982 --> 00:31:27,390
his mother was a slave in the kitchen.
535
00:31:27,390 --> 00:31:28,549
It was a home castle thing, and ----
536
00:31:28,549 --> 00:31:29,856
So, I'm supposed ----
537
00:31:29,856 --> 00:31:36,026
Don't make me scream. ...
538
00:31:36,026 --> 00:31:38,463
Billy, he was a quarterback in high school,
539
00:31:38,463 --> 00:31:43,594
and all the girls were on the sidelines, as, as, ascheerleaders including ... me.
540
00:31:43,594 --> 00:31:45,182
I, I was a ... a cheerleader.
541
00:31:45,182 --> 00:31:46,719
You??
542
00:31:46,719 --> 00:31:49,297
== just, just please don't tell anybody.
543
00:31:49,297 --> 00:31:52,576
My point: He was raised in a patriarchal world,
544
00:31:52,576 --> 00:31:54,686
wanting to grow up and be like his dad.
545
00:31:54,686 --> 00:31:56,424
And, and now, he works in a firm
546
00:31:56,424 --> 00:31:57,692
where the women are stronger than the men.
547
00:31:57,692 --> 00:31:58,829
His wife makes as much money.
548
00:31:58,829 --> 00:32:01,397
He's not even the provider. He's got no castle.
549
00:32:01,397 --> 00:32:05,705
And, and I'm not trying to make excuses for him being unfaithful.
550
00:32:05,705 --> 00:32:07,903
All I am saying is, stuff is going on with him.
551
00:32:07,903 --> 00:32:10,235
He, he, he bleached his head for god's sake.
552
00:32:10,235 --> 00:32:12,066
And, and stuff is going on with you.
553
00:32:12,066 --> 00:32:13,594
You kissed my father, you quit your job.
554
00:32:13,594 --> 00:32:16,772
Stuff is going on, and it, and it's making you both angry.
555
00:32:16,772 --> 00:32:23,985
And, and for you to just wave the white flagand let anger win without trying, without talking ...
556
00:32:27,131 --> 00:32:30,916
It hasn't gone too far yet.
557
00:32:30,916 --> 00:32:33,781
But, for god's sake, get in a room and talk it out.
558
00:32:33,781 --> 00:32:38,622
You love each other way, way too much to just give up!
559
00:32:53,771 --> 00:32:55,209
Related to my father?
560
00:32:55,209 --> 00:32:57,353
Everybody's marriage is connected to the marriage of their parents,
561
00:32:57,353 --> 00:33:00,283
Billy. I know you're smart enough to know that --
562
00:33:00,283 --> 00:33:02,536
even now at the dumbest time of your life!
563
00:33:02,536 --> 00:33:04,317
But my dumbest time is when I left you.
564
00:33:04,317 --> 00:33:07,693
It was, and now you're exceeding it.
565
00:33:07,693 --> 00:33:08,957
And it isn't that, either!
566
00:33:08,957 --> 00:33:10,552
What isn't what?
567
00:33:10,552 --> 00:33:12,887
Well, you, you think this is about me needing to believe in the forever of marriage again?
568
00:33:12,887 --> 00:33:17,958
It's not that. You'll be happy to knowthat I don't believe in happily ever after anymore and,
569
00:33:17,958 --> 00:33:19,994
and at least I don't think it's the norm.
570
00:33:19,994 --> 00:33:21,777
And, and if it does come along, it takes hard work.
571
00:33:21,777 --> 00:33:25,349
And you two haven't worked.
572
00:33:26,464 --> 00:33:30,520
And one thing you can't deny: I know you,and I know you love her.
573
00:33:31,701 --> 00:33:37,654
And this new Billy thing ... it's a cover.
574
00:33:40,008 --> 00:33:43,279
Does she want to work?
575
00:33:43,279 --> 00:33:49,633
Well ...
576
00:34:04,906 --> 00:34:09,980
Ally thinks our mutual hate for each other is something to built on.
577
00:34:09,980 --> 00:34:14,710
are you trying to hurt me, kissing that woman?
578
00:34:14,710 --> 00:34:17,850
Maybe. What about you?
579
00:34:17,850 --> 00:34:20,525
Kissing Ally's father, that was about me?
580
00:34:20,525 --> 00:34:26,636
Maybe. You hate your life, Billy?
581
00:34:30,875 --> 00:34:34,016
... Maybe.
582
00:34:36,504 --> 00:34:39,272
We've exchanged three maybes.This is progress, I guess.
583
00:34:39,272 --> 00:34:39,799
Maybe.
584
00:34:44,715 --> 00:34:50,086
... I'm almost afraid to ask ...
585
00:34:50,086 --> 00:34:58,138
but tell me what you want.
586
00:34:58,138 --> 00:35:02,196
I want you to put this back on.
587
00:35:19,368 --> 00:35:22,562
Billy Thomas' office. Can I tell him who's calling?
588
00:35:22,562 --> 00:35:24,215
No! He's not taking his calls!
589
00:35:24,215 --> 00:35:25,689
It's Robin Jones.
590
00:35:25,689 --> 00:35:30,688
Oh! ... Hello. ... Yeah. Well, um, I'm sorry,
591
00:35:30,688 --> 00:35:36,131
but Billy's unfortunately being relocatedinto a witness protection program. ...
592
00:35:36,131 --> 00:35:37,943
Oh I know. It's quite tragic.
593
00:35:37,943 --> 00:35:41,903
But, but, as a result of a recent racketeering trial,his life is in danger.
594
00:35:41,903 --> 00:35:49,027
And several innocent people have been killed alreadyjust by having contact with him.
595
00:35:49,027 --> 00:35:50,187
You're wicked!
596
00:35:50,187 --> 00:35:52,937
Tell a friend.
597
00:36:07,038 --> 00:36:12,095
What happened?
598
00:36:12,095 --> 00:36:19,364
She said she can't bring herself to take me back.
599
00:36:19,364 --> 00:36:22,391
... Sorry.
600
00:36:22,391 --> 00:36:28,010
Me too.
601
00:36:28,010 --> 00:36:32,516
... If, if, um ... if there's anything I can do.
602
00:36:32,516 --> 00:36:44,254
Yeah. ... Ally, the little girl had no need to save you.
603
00:36:44,254 --> 00:36:46,702
You became exactly what you planned --
604
00:36:46,702 --> 00:36:55,456
someone who's out there painting the world beautiful colors.
605
00:36:55,456 --> 00:36:59,541
Or at least, trying to.
606
00:37:48,776 --> 00:37:51,110
There's no enforceable contract here.
607
00:37:51,110 --> 00:37:53,633
The defendant has no duty to the public, either.
608
00:37:53,633 --> 00:37:56,506
The Plaintiff's motion for a restraining order is denied.
609
00:37:56,506 --> 00:37:59,599
I further order the petitoner to pay the defendant's attorney fees.
610
00:37:59,599 --> 00:38:02,476
I have to object to that, Your Grinch ... Uh, Honor.
611
00:38:02,476 --> 00:38:04,061
Object all what you want, Mr. Cage.
612
00:38:04,061 --> 00:38:05,738
This was a waste of my time.
613
00:38:05,738 --> 00:38:08,051
Well,ppose you're behind now on your shopping?
614
00:38:08,051 --> 00:38:10,663
$1000 fine. Anything else?
615
00:38:10,663 --> 00:38:11,848
Just merry Christmas,
616
00:38:11,848 --> 00:38:14,705
and I'd like to personally roast your chestnuts on an open fire.
617
00:38:14,705 --> 00:38:16,347
$2000. Keep going.
618
00:38:16,347 --> 00:38:19,667
He's done, Your Grinch ... Honor.
619
00:38:19,667 --> 00:38:22,447
Adjourned.
620
00:38:22,447 --> 00:38:23,360
Well, Steven.
621
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,555
Oh I know you tried. Thank you.
622
00:38:25,555 --> 00:38:29,918
Mr. Mallory, it was very important that we win here,
623
00:38:29,918 --> 00:38:35,177
so you'd appreciate this is a gesture,and not the function of a court order.
624
00:38:35,177 --> 00:38:38,089
We would like to welcome you back as our Santa Claus.
625
00:38:38,089 --> 00:38:39,726
What? Really?
626
00:38:39,726 --> 00:38:42,946
Really. You may not have turned the judge, Mr. Cage,
627
00:38:42,946 --> 00:38:44,785
but you certainly persuaded me.
628
00:38:44,785 --> 00:38:47,075
The Newman's Santa Claus is something special,
629
00:38:47,075 --> 00:38:49,335
and he should be more than about demographics.
630
00:38:49,335 --> 00:38:52,378
He should be you!
631
00:38:52,378 --> 00:38:59,486
Oh, thank you, thank you.
632
00:39:02,356 --> 00:39:04,485
It's a duct thing.
633
00:39:52,618 --> 00:39:54,541
They're having a big old party at the bar.
634
00:39:54,541 --> 00:39:57,154
Our client is there. Let's go!
635
00:39:57,154 --> 00:40:01,274
No, no. I'm going to head home. Tired.
636
00:40:01,274 --> 00:40:03,576
Ally said he's not there.
637
00:40:03,576 --> 00:40:08,011
It's not that. I am just really tired.
638
00:40:08,011 --> 00:40:09,122
Sure?
639
00:40:09,122 --> 00:40:13,402
Yeah.
640
00:40:13,402 --> 00:40:17,029
Hey, how about you and me go to someplace else?
641
00:40:17,029 --> 00:40:19,200
Just the two of us. Celebrate our victory.
642
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:22,821
Thanks, Renee. But I am just going to go home.
643
00:40:22,821 --> 00:40:25,447
Okay. If you change your mind ...
644
00:40:25,447 --> 00:40:28,481
I'll know where to find you.
645
00:40:28,481 --> 00:40:30,333
Night.
646
00:40:30,333 --> 00:40:31,524
Night.
