Don't get me wrong. 238 00:15:02,500 --> 00:15:07,860 He's been in many ways a godsend to Alice. She was at the point where... 239 00:15:07,861 --> 00:15:10,879 she was so secure in her routine, I was afraid she was going to spend the rest 240 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,350 of her life in the house. And Benny's changed that. 241 00:15:13,940 --> 00:15:15,080 So what's the problem? 242 00:15:15,100 --> 00:15:16,150 I'm not sure. 243 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,340 But I think he tried to take advantage of Alice. 244 00:15:19,820 --> 00:15:23,399 You're kidding. I opened the door. He was trying to kiss her. I can't be 245 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:24,450 positive, but... 246 00:15:24,451 --> 00:15:29,269 It looked like he wasn't going to stop there, if you know what I mean. I can't 247 00:15:29,270 --> 00:15:33,089 believe it. Alice had no idea what was going on. She's so damn innocent, she 248 00:15:33,090 --> 00:15:35,500 no way of knowing what he was getting ready to do. 249 00:15:37,010 --> 00:15:38,060 I'll talk to him. 250 00:15:38,070 --> 00:15:39,120 I wish you would. 251 00:15:39,650 --> 00:15:43,850 I think it's very important that we stop this right now. I couldn't agree more. 252 00:15:45,470 --> 00:15:46,520 Thank you, Douglas. 253 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:56,699 Miss Noonan, were you surprised when Mr. Bostic's show turned violent that 254 00:15:56,700 --> 00:16:00,380 night? Not at all. We had always intended for it to turn violent. 255 00:16:00,740 --> 00:16:04,839 It worked for Geraldo. We thought it would work for us. Was Mr. Bostic aware 256 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:05,559 the plan? 257 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,970 Of course. He was in all the production meetings. 258 00:16:07,980 --> 00:16:09,420 And he acted accordingly? 259 00:16:09,780 --> 00:16:10,830 No, he did not. 260 00:16:10,940 --> 00:16:14,739 He set out to provoke a level of violence we never envisioned and 261 00:16:14,740 --> 00:16:16,060 never would have endorsed. 262 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:17,920 We didn't want a killing. Thank you. 263 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:19,580 I have no further questions. 264 00:16:20,381 --> 00:16:28,649 You yourself were charged with criminal conspiracy following this incident, were 265 00:16:28,650 --> 00:16:29,369 you not? 266 00:16:29,370 --> 00:16:33,929 Yes, I was. And you cut a deal with the DA's office in which you agreed to 267 00:16:33,930 --> 00:16:39,289 testify against Mr. Bostic. You're right. Tell us, isn't it true that 268 00:16:39,290 --> 00:16:43,449 fight has broken out before this on the show, that you publicized the hell out 269 00:16:43,450 --> 00:16:47,129 of it? The fact that we publicized fights does not mean that we condone 270 00:16:47,130 --> 00:16:48,270 Pete was doing that day. 271 00:16:48,650 --> 00:16:53,109 but he was doing exactly what you wanted him to. First of all, nothing happens 272 00:16:53,110 --> 00:16:54,290 because I want it to. 273 00:16:54,670 --> 00:16:57,680 What's on the air is what you think people are going to watch. 274 00:16:57,690 --> 00:16:59,310 If you're right, you're a genius. 275 00:16:59,510 --> 00:17:04,088 If you're wrong, you're out of work. Do you honestly think that Pete Bostic is 276 00:17:04,089 --> 00:17:07,088 responsible for what happened in that parking lot? He should have known 277 00:17:07,089 --> 00:17:08,829 something was going to happen, yes. 278 00:17:08,830 --> 00:17:10,149 Well, you were his producer. 279 00:17:10,150 --> 00:17:14,089 If he should have known, you should have known. Why didn't you call the police? 280 00:17:14,090 --> 00:17:16,528 Why didn't you have security people out there? 281 00:17:16,529 --> 00:17:18,329 I didn't think it would be necessary. 282 00:17:18,829 --> 00:17:19,930 Neither did Pete. 283 00:17:21,210 --> 00:17:25,828 In fact, he thought that he had done a good show. That is why you were 284 00:17:25,829 --> 00:17:29,289 congratulating him, isn't it, Ms. Noonan? Well, I'm not congratulating him 285 00:17:29,290 --> 00:17:32,869 Well, he's not your meal ticket anymore. You wrote his back to television glory, 286 00:17:32,870 --> 00:17:36,830 and now you're done with him. Get something straight. I invented Pete 287 00:17:37,450 --> 00:17:41,670 He was doing cable TV spots for some discount appliance stores when I found 288 00:17:41,750 --> 00:17:44,010 I told him what to wear. I told him what to say. 289 00:17:44,011 --> 00:17:47,749 He just started believing his own publicity, that's all. He fell in love 290 00:17:47,750 --> 00:17:50,890 all these nitwits chanting his name. 291 00:17:55,830 --> 00:17:57,190 Mickey. Hi. 292 00:17:58,150 --> 00:17:59,930 Quite a case.

Leo, in your office, please. 452 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:18,769 Benny called Alice last night. They made a date for Saturday. 453 00:27:18,770 --> 00:27:21,480 Oh? I thought I made myself clear yesterday, Douglas. 454 00:27:22,010 --> 00:27:23,770 I spoke to Benny. 455 00:27:24,310 --> 00:27:29,209 He understands your concern.

First of all, I 458 00:27:35,150 --> 00:27:38,989 don't see anything wrong with their seeing each other. Secondly, it's not my 459 00:27:38,990 --> 00:27:41,730 place to tell Benny how to live his personal life. 460 00:27:41,731 --> 00:27:45,639 I am the client who pays your firm a million bucks a year, making it my place 461 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,939 tell you anything I want.

You're the one who wanted 464 00:27:58,900 --> 00:28:00,640 Benny to show her the outside world. 465 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:05,879 And now that she's seen it, you're afraid she might want to live in it. If 466 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:06,930 goes near her. 467 00:28:06,931 --> 00:28:09,659 Or if he even calls her, I'm yanking all my business. 468 00:28:09,660 --> 00:28:10,719 You understand, Douglas? 469 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:11,860 Benny's an adult. 470 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:13,330 So is Alice. 471 00:28:13,620 --> 00:28:17,440 If they choose to spend time together, that's their decision. 472 00:28:17,441 --> 00:28:21,939 And I sure as hell won't tell Benny how to live his life, just to accommodate 473 00:28:21,940 --> 00:28:25,799 the baseless paranoia of a client, no matter how much business that client 474 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,940 generates. You're making a big mistake. 475 00:28:36,330 --> 00:28:37,830 Hi.

We've got a volatile issue here. 501 00:29:58,801 --> 00:30:02,209 People are sick to death with hearing about the rights of criminals. As far as 502 00:30:02,210 --> 00:30:04,009 I'm concerned, criminals have no right. 503 00:30:04,010 --> 00:30:07,260 You got a problem with prison conditions, real simple solution. 504 00:30:07,370 --> 00:30:08,690 Don't get sent to prison. 505 00:30:09,790 --> 00:30:13,910 All right, all right.

Get angry, yes. 512 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:34,340 Resort to violence, no way. 513 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:39,419 Now, if you had to do the whole thing all over again, would you do anything 514 00:30:39,420 --> 00:30:43,480 differently? If you're asking me whether I wish I could prevent what happened, 515 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:44,570 the answer is yes. 516 00:30:44,580 --> 00:30:48,819 If you're asking me whether I'd stop saying the things that need to be said 517 00:30:48,820 --> 00:30:53,979 because I'm frightened of the consequences, the answer, Mr. McLeish, 518 00:30:53,980 --> 00:30:55,030 resounding no. 519 00:30:55,060 --> 00:30:59,999 Yes! I said I don't want to hear any applause in this courtroom. If I hear it 520 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,600 again, you people are going to be exported out. I have no further 521 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:04,770 Your Honor. 522 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:09,920 Let's look at some of the other issues you covered during this week's period. 523 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,680 The Shiite Muslims with the publishers of a Khomeini joke book. 524 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:19,160 That was a good show. Young American Nazis with concentration camp victims. 525 00:31:19,260 --> 00:31:23,520 That's real stuff. We have to get that out in the open so that we, us... 526 00:31:23,770 --> 00:31:25,990 The American people can say what's what. 527 00:31:26,230 --> 00:31:29,490 And not the big shots we usually hear from. That's right. 528 00:31:31,510 --> 00:31:33,170 Escort these people out. Now. 529 00:31:35,010 --> 00:31:37,120 Judge, this was just a spontaneous thing. 530 00:31:37,310 --> 00:31:41,329 This isn't a spontaneous place, Mr. Boston. In all honesty, Judge Swanson, 531 00:31:41,330 --> 00:31:44,400 isn't the way you've treated certain other activist groups. 532 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:58,300 What was it about Kevin Garwood that made you want him up at that microphone, 533 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,180 sir? I try to provide my audience with a forum. 534 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:06,280 The people who read the L .A. Times don't need me. Joe Lunchbucket does. 535 00:32:06,281 --> 00:32:09,759 Except you didn't want to hear Joe Lunchbucket talk. You wanted to see him 536 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,620 fight. Wrong, all right? You're wrong. 537 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,739 You sat with your producers and orchestrated the fight. Objection. She's 538 00:32:15,740 --> 00:32:16,880 badgering the witness. 539 00:32:16,900 --> 00:32:20,440 Sustained. Did you ever think to warn Leonard Kaiser, Mr. Bostic? 540 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,000 Warn him about what? That he was being set up. 541 00:32:23,340 --> 00:32:27,200 Objection. Sustained. You controlled the makeup of the audience. 542 00:32:27,580 --> 00:32:31,400 Don't you think you at least owed it to Leonard Kaiser to say, 543 00:32:32,110 --> 00:32:35,970 Roll with it. I'm going to stick my mob on you, but it's just for the ratings. 544 00:32:36,230 --> 00:32:37,280 My mob? 545 00:32:37,350 --> 00:32:40,720 I got a newsflash for you. There's no such thing. I don't control them. 546 00:32:41,310 --> 00:32:43,210 Hell, I'm more at risk than anyone. 547 00:32:43,211 --> 00:32:46,749 In the studio, out the studio, wherever I am, I've always got security people 548 00:32:46,750 --> 00:32:50,300 with me. The ones who killed that man could just as easily have killed me. 549 00:32:52,750 --> 00:32:54,410 Are you crazy? 550 00:32:55,820 --> 00:32:59,619 I am not crazy, Your Honor. This is a legitimate ex parte motion, and I would 551 00:32:59,620 --> 00:33:04,179 appreciate your ruling on it. You want me to order this guy to turn over a dead 552 00:33:04,180 --> 00:33:07,979 snake? Papers were filed against my client yesterday, Your Honor, alleging 553 00:33:07,980 --> 00:33:10,270 she contributed to the passing of this snake. 554 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:14,759 Now, we need access to the python in order to perform an autopsy. Which 555 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,040 is my client's sole hope of exoneration? 556 00:33:17,820 --> 00:33:21,190 I've been doing this for a long time, and I still don't believe this. 557 00:33:21,610 --> 00:33:25,609 It says here the thing ate a pig. That would be correct, Your Honor. The python 558 00:33:25,610 --> 00:33:31,229 did consume a small Chinese pot -bellied pig, after which an agent of my client 559 00:33:31,230 --> 00:33:35,909 fed the assailant vegetable oil in an attempt to induce it to vomit forth its 560 00:33:35,910 --> 00:33:36,960 victim. 561 00:33:37,070 --> 00:33:39,870 Excuse me. 562 00:33:39,871 --> 00:33:44,009 It's all there in paragraph two of my client's declaration, Your Honor.

And upon information and belief, a funeral 566 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:57,940 been scheduled for the snake tomorrow, making time of the essence. 567 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,290 I'm sure there's a reason not to do this, but I can't think of it. 568 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,220 Okay, I'll order the autopsy. Clerk will draft it. 569 00:34:05,500 --> 00:34:07,060 Thank you very much, Your Honor. 570 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:10,239 Robin versus McCarthy. 571 00:34:11,219 --> 00:34:12,359 Robin versus McCarthy. 572 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,440 The autopsy proves we poisoned it. 573 00:34:14,620 --> 00:34:16,480 There will not be an autopsy, Allison. 574 00:34:16,481 --> 00:34:20,198 What are you talking about? You just asked the judge to order it. Allison. 575 00:34:20,199 --> 00:34:21,519 Counselor, are you ready? 576 00:34:22,260 --> 00:34:23,640 You are going to take me home. 577 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,380 You're going to put me in bed. 578 00:34:25,620 --> 00:34:27,240 You're going to make me some soup. 579 00:34:28,940 --> 00:34:29,990 Okay, Fuentes. 580 00:34:30,460 --> 00:34:35,380 Let's get you home and make you... Folks! 581 00:34:42,889 --> 00:34:44,110 My name's Pete Bostic. 582 00:34:45,350 --> 00:34:47,050 I want you to hear this from me. 583 00:34:49,110 --> 00:34:50,160 No lawyers. 584 00:34:51,030 --> 00:34:53,350 No suits, no briefcases. Me, Pete. 585 00:34:56,190 --> 00:34:59,860 I'm not the brightest guy in the world. I never said that I was. I'm just a guy. 586 00:34:59,910 --> 00:35:01,790 I yell a little too loud at ball games. 587 00:35:02,050 --> 00:35:03,100 I believe in God. 588 00:35:03,450 --> 00:35:04,610 I love my country. 589 00:35:05,010 --> 00:35:06,290 I'm one of the nitwits. 590 00:35:07,610 --> 00:35:11,830 The dolts, the dummies, the morons who clean carpets. 591 00:35:12,420 --> 00:35:13,470 install mufflers. 592 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:17,660 I'm the cop on the beat, the 45 -year -old woman who sits at the cash 593 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,050 I'm you. 594 00:35:20,820 --> 00:35:24,699 I call him the way I see him, and I thank God we live in a country where 595 00:35:24,700 --> 00:35:29,840 possible. Now, if you send me to prison, it's because that idea frightens you. 596 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:36,779 Freedom is a scary thing sometimes, even though it is our birthright as 597 00:35:36,780 --> 00:35:42,769 Americans. The thing is, are we going to permit free speech only if it doesn't 598 00:35:42,770 --> 00:35:46,350 inflame passions, rouse the listener to act? 599 00:35:47,470 --> 00:35:49,010 I said what I thought. 600 00:35:49,230 --> 00:35:54,209 I didn't advocate violence. I didn't advocate killing. I wasn't even present 601 00:35:54,210 --> 00:35:58,729 when the killing occurred. If you convict me, you convict yourselves of 602 00:35:58,730 --> 00:36:01,570 unable to do what generations of Americans have done. 603 00:36:02,070 --> 00:36:05,270 Like it says on the license plate of the Granite State, 604 00:36:06,150 --> 00:36:07,200 live free! 605 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:09,450 Or die. 606 00:36:16,740 --> 00:36:23,699 Mr. Bostic told you that this trial says as much about us as it 607 00:36:23,700 --> 00:36:25,260 does about him. 608 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:27,210 I agree. 609 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:33,260 He's told you that this trial is about freedom. 610 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,320 I agree with that, too. 611 00:36:37,130 --> 00:36:42,270 But Mr. Bostic says that this case is about free speech. 612 00:36:42,570 --> 00:36:45,390 And there, I disagree. 613 00:36:46,490 --> 00:36:52,609 Deliberately orchestrating and instigating a physical assault to boost 614 00:36:52,610 --> 00:36:55,530 ratings of a TV show isn't speech. 615 00:36:56,410 --> 00:36:58,830 It's deliberate violence. 616 00:36:59,170 --> 00:37:03,230 He didn't have to be in that parking lot. 617 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:09,719 He got things started back in the studio. He whipped that audience into a 618 00:37:09,720 --> 00:37:16,339 frenzy and now shrugs his shoulders at the consequences. Pete Bostic says 619 00:37:16,340 --> 00:37:21,140 he represents the American way. He's a liar. 620 00:37:22,500 --> 00:37:29,359 The American way wouldn't have left a 50 -year -old man dead in a parking 621 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,940 lot for nothing more than his ideas. 622 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:37,899 But if violence and brute force will get your ratings, Pete will give them to 623 00:37:37,900 --> 00:37:42,360 you every time. And Pete Bostic says he's you. 624 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:49,339 By your verdict, ladies and gentlemen, you will indicate whether or not 625 00:37:49,340 --> 00:37:51,180 you agree. 626 00:37:53,180 --> 00:37:54,230 Thank you. 627 00:38:07,220 --> 00:38:09,380 This is becoming a daily routine. 628 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,840 You here to pick up your files, Leo?

I'm just trying to avenge his death. 658 00:39:48,890 --> 00:39:53,309 You say you love Alan, but if you really did, you wouldn't be exalting your own 659 00:39:53,310 --> 00:39:55,489 sense of vindictiveness over the welfare of his soul? 660 00:39:55,490 --> 00:39:56,540 That's not fair. 661 00:39:57,110 --> 00:40:03,129 I know you're in pain, Mr. Weisborough, but just imagine how your hurt will be 662 00:40:03,130 --> 00:40:04,830 compounded if Alan's body is... 663 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:06,440 Chopped up in an autopsy. 664 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:09,140 You're trying to guilt me. 665 00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:14,079 If you drop this lawsuit, Alan's body will have no evidentiary value, and you 666 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,670 can give him the funeral service that he would want. 667 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:18,600 It's the right thing to do. 668 00:40:20,500 --> 00:40:23,270 $10 ,000 bank check by the end of business day on Friday. 669 00:40:23,780 --> 00:40:24,830 Fifteen.
