1
00:00:01,599 --> 00:00:05,500
Well, thank you very much, Mr.
Garabedian. We are interviewing a number

2
00:00:05,500 --> 00:00:08,720
people, and we'll let you know as soon
as we've made our final decision.

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,700
Before I leave, I want to say two words
to you.

4
00:00:12,220 --> 00:00:13,700
Class action.

5
00:00:14,020 --> 00:00:18,140
Whether we're talking about negligently
manufactured pacemakers or defective

6
00:00:18,140 --> 00:00:22,040
farm machinery, I believe that multiple
plaintiff lawsuits will generate heap

7
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,080
big moolah.

8
00:00:24,080 --> 00:00:28,200
And I am just the boy to do it.

9
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:29,760
Ah, thank you.

10
00:00:30,330 --> 00:00:31,330
Thank you.

11
00:00:34,410 --> 00:00:35,850
How many more of these do we have to see
today?

12
00:00:36,170 --> 00:00:37,170
Five more.

13
00:00:37,790 --> 00:00:38,890
I can't do this.

14
00:00:39,150 --> 00:00:42,630
You guys hire whoever you want to hire.
I just, I can't do this anymore.

15
00:00:43,510 --> 00:00:46,190
Hello? Ah, you're... Jane Halliday.

16
00:00:47,130 --> 00:00:48,250
I'm Douglas Brackman.

17
00:00:48,510 --> 00:00:52,030
This is Dan Kelsey, Jonathan Rollins,
and Arnold Becker. Thanks.

18
00:00:52,870 --> 00:00:54,530
Arnold, are you staying?

19
00:00:56,430 --> 00:00:58,290
Why don't you tell us a little bit about
yourself?

20
00:00:58,800 --> 00:00:59,800
I'm from Oklahoma.

21
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:01,760
Went to Harvard Law School.

22
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,099
I clerked for a federal judge for a year
after graduation.

23
00:01:05,860 --> 00:01:09,060
Following that, I worked in the district
attorney's office in Oklahoma City for

24
00:01:09,060 --> 00:01:09,818
two years.

25
00:01:09,820 --> 00:01:11,420
What made you want to relocate out here?

26
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:12,700
Well, I have family out here.

27
00:01:13,470 --> 00:01:17,070
Also, I felt I could benefit by
broadening my horizons a bit.

28
00:01:17,270 --> 00:01:21,230
Is there any particular area you'd like
to specialize in? At this point in my

29
00:01:21,230 --> 00:01:23,930
career, I'd just as soon be guided by
what needs to present themselves.

30
00:01:24,470 --> 00:01:26,470
I'd be happy to do whatever you need me
to do.

31
00:01:26,690 --> 00:01:29,810
It says on your resume that you attended
Bob Jones University.

32
00:01:30,370 --> 00:01:34,590
Yes. That's a religious school, isn't
it? Yes, it is. It's a Christian

33
00:01:34,910 --> 00:01:36,690
A fundamentalist Christian college?

34
00:01:37,050 --> 00:01:40,370
Yes. Are you a fundamentalist Christian?

35
00:01:40,610 --> 00:01:41,610
Yes, I am.

36
00:01:42,110 --> 00:01:46,500
Well... Forgive me for saying this, but
this firm seems an unlikely setting for

37
00:01:46,500 --> 00:01:48,240
a fundamentalist Christian to want to be
in.

38
00:01:48,540 --> 00:01:49,540
Perhaps it is.

39
00:01:49,780 --> 00:01:54,180
But I made a decision to pursue a career
and to work and live in a more

40
00:01:54,180 --> 00:01:56,860
mainstream environment than the one I
grew up in.

41
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,780
Your firm is very well regarded in the
legal community.

42
00:02:00,180 --> 00:02:02,160
I think I could benefit from working
here.

43
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,140
And I also think that I could make a
contribution.

44
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,800
Miss Halliday, you might find us
something of a godless bunch.

45
00:02:09,449 --> 00:02:12,830
I think you'll find that I'm really
pretty accepting of people, Mr. Rollins.

46
00:02:13,370 --> 00:02:15,410
And I don't think any of us are godless.

47
00:02:15,730 --> 00:02:18,930
Yea, though I walk through the valley of
the shadow of death, I will fear no

48
00:02:18,930 --> 00:02:20,850
evil, for thou art with me.

49
00:02:21,590 --> 00:02:23,870
Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

50
00:02:24,450 --> 00:02:27,050
Thou preparest a table for me before
mine enemies.

51
00:02:27,510 --> 00:02:29,210
Thou anointest my head with oil.

52
00:02:29,470 --> 00:02:30,890
My cup runneth over.

53
00:02:31,530 --> 00:02:35,110
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life.

54
00:02:35,650 --> 00:02:38,190
And I will dwell in the house of the
Lord forever.

55
00:02:43,479 --> 00:02:47,660
Well... It was very nice meeting all of
you. And it was nice meeting you, Miss

56
00:02:47,660 --> 00:02:50,460
Halliday. We'll let you know as soon as
we've made our decision.

57
00:02:50,740 --> 00:02:51,740
Thank you.

58
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:50,640
Good morning.

59
00:04:52,540 --> 00:04:53,540
Yeah.

60
00:04:53,700 --> 00:04:54,960
Okay, we'll do it then.

61
00:04:55,540 --> 00:04:56,540
Well, all right.

62
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,220
When is the table going to be ready,
Douglas? They said another week.

63
00:05:01,380 --> 00:05:02,660
Unbelievable. Yeah, it's done.

64
00:05:02,940 --> 00:05:03,940
Everywhere is done.

65
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,420
Is this it? Yeah. This renovation is
taking on epic proportions.

66
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,740
When are they telling us now it's going
to be done?

67
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:11,800
End of the month. End of which month?

68
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:13,780
Sellers, could you hold this down?

69
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:16,140
We ought to try to get some work done
around here.

70
00:05:16,770 --> 00:05:18,250
Folks, if we could get down to business.

71
00:05:19,210 --> 00:05:22,510
Interviews are ongoing for new
associates. I'd like to have someone

72
00:05:22,510 --> 00:05:23,770
end of the week, if possible.

73
00:05:23,970 --> 00:05:27,310
I think it's safe to say that as far as
Arnold's concerned, we ought to be done

74
00:05:27,310 --> 00:05:31,310
looking now. I trust that what we
witnessed was momentary infatuation and

75
00:05:31,310 --> 00:05:34,290
nothing more than that. We'll see all
the candidates who'll make a decision

76
00:05:34,290 --> 00:05:37,130
everyone else or one whoever is best
qualified for the job.

77
00:05:37,390 --> 00:05:38,389
What are you looking at?

78
00:05:38,390 --> 00:05:39,390
What am I looking at?

79
00:05:40,970 --> 00:05:44,130
I'm looking at the prize in the Cracker
Jack box. I'm looking at the big brass

80
00:05:44,130 --> 00:05:45,550
ring and the merry ground of life.

81
00:05:45,830 --> 00:05:46,830
What are you looking at?

82
00:05:47,050 --> 00:05:50,590
The Bentley Continental R.

83
00:05:51,110 --> 00:05:52,250
You're getting a Bentley?

84
00:05:52,750 --> 00:05:54,170
How much?

85
00:05:54,610 --> 00:06:01,310
Listed $275 ,000. You're spending $275
,000 for a car? You think that's

86
00:06:01,310 --> 00:06:02,310
excessive?

87
00:06:03,150 --> 00:06:06,640
Folks. As compelling as this
conversation is, I'd really like to get

88
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,500
done before the sounds of hammering
drives me completely crazy.

89
00:06:09,740 --> 00:06:10,760
You're running the meeting, Douglas.

90
00:06:11,140 --> 00:06:12,140
Run the meeting.

91
00:06:12,280 --> 00:06:15,000
Kincaid versus Owens, Pierce, McIntyre,
and Reynolds.

92
00:06:15,280 --> 00:06:19,120
That's mine. Judith Kincaid is suing her
law firm for sexual discrimination

93
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,920
under Title VII for their failure to
make her a partner.

94
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:26,080
There, but for the grace of God, go we.
There are no female partners at Owens,

95
00:06:26,100 --> 00:06:26,739
Pierce, Douglas.

96
00:06:26,740 --> 00:06:28,760
Not even one like there is here.

97
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,660
Can this case be settled? The offers we
received were insulting.

98
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,540
Let's try not to get too much of a
reputation as a repository for litigious

99
00:06:35,540 --> 00:06:37,740
embittered females, shall we add? Moving
on.

100
00:06:38,840 --> 00:06:39,840
Excuse me. Eli.

101
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,680
Is this a bad time? No, it's a very good
time, everybody.

102
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,280
This is my cousin, Eli Levins. How do
you do?

103
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,460
Stuart told us you're involved in the
case of the social worker who was

104
00:06:49,660 --> 00:06:52,280
The parents of the accused are all
friends of my family. I'm out here on

105
00:06:52,280 --> 00:06:55,800
behalf. Well, if there's anything any of
us can do to assist you, please let us

106
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,080
know. Thank you. There's a vacant office
you can use, but we're a little short

107
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:00,480
-handed in the secretarial department.

108
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:03,020
Oh, please don't worry about it. You're
being extremely gracious.

109
00:07:03,580 --> 00:07:05,700
I'll make my own arrangements as
concerns a secretary.

110
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,400
Do you think $275 ,000 is too much to
spend on a car?

111
00:07:10,620 --> 00:07:14,180
I don't know. I bust my ass working. I'm
at the top of my field. I have no

112
00:07:14,180 --> 00:07:15,180
dependents.

113
00:07:15,700 --> 00:07:17,860
Who could own a Bentley if not me?

114
00:07:18,100 --> 00:07:19,100
Will it make you happy?

115
00:07:21,220 --> 00:07:22,220
Yes, it will.

116
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:23,920
Then you should own it.

117
00:07:25,340 --> 00:07:27,340
A wise man arrives from the East.

118
00:07:28,500 --> 00:07:29,620
Nice to meet you, Eli.

119
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:30,960
Nice to meet you.

120
00:07:32,780 --> 00:07:36,540
Do you think there's any chance he'll be
glad to see us here?

121
00:07:36,900 --> 00:07:40,980
My God, with the trouble he's in, you'd
think he'd be thrilled to see us.

122
00:07:41,220 --> 00:07:43,340
I think you should be prepared for that
not to be the case.

123
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:48,680
Oh, Sandy.

124
00:07:49,900 --> 00:07:51,020
How are you doing, son?

125
00:07:52,940 --> 00:07:53,940
Who's that?

126
00:07:54,300 --> 00:07:58,460
This is Eli Levinson, an attorney who's
come with us from New York.

127
00:07:58,680 --> 00:07:59,680
What for?

128
00:07:59,700 --> 00:08:04,440
Because you need an attorney. Because
you have a little bit of difficulty

129
00:08:06,220 --> 00:08:10,860
Do you still have my Beatles album,
Yesterday and Today?

130
00:08:15,180 --> 00:08:16,600
We probably do.

131
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,500
I haven't thrown anything of yours away.
Certainly not your record collection.

132
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,320
Well, it's the album cover with the
Beatles in butcher coats.

133
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,660
See, I steamed off the album cover it
was sold with because it's got the

134
00:08:29,660 --> 00:08:30,980
original one underneath.

135
00:08:32,900 --> 00:08:34,460
It's probably worth a fair amount of
money.

136
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,120
Should we send for it?

137
00:08:36,419 --> 00:08:37,520
Do you want to have it here?

138
00:08:37,980 --> 00:08:39,820
I'm thinking you should sell it.

139
00:08:45,300 --> 00:08:46,680
I don't want to go back now.

140
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,200
Ed, Ray, why don't you give us a minute
by ourselves?

141
00:08:59,150 --> 00:09:00,150
See you soon, son.

142
00:09:17,790 --> 00:09:18,790
Sandy?

143
00:09:32,330 --> 00:09:33,690
You don't know me and I don't know you.

144
00:09:36,210 --> 00:09:37,670
You've been charged with a murder.

145
00:09:38,610 --> 00:09:41,630
That means you need to have someone
paying very close attention to what

146
00:09:41,630 --> 00:09:42,630
to you.

147
00:09:43,230 --> 00:09:44,230
Do you have a cigarette?

148
00:09:45,670 --> 00:09:46,670
I don't smoke.

149
00:09:48,050 --> 00:09:49,590
Then I'll see if you smoke.

150
00:09:50,010 --> 00:09:51,370
I'll see if you have a cigarette.

151
00:09:53,490 --> 00:09:54,490
I don't.

152
00:09:56,690 --> 00:10:01,630
Sandy, there's a preliminary hearing
scheduled for tomorrow.

153
00:10:02,860 --> 00:10:05,120
Do you have any problem with me
representing you at that hearing?

154
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:07,580
No. Good.

155
00:10:10,660 --> 00:10:13,660
Is there anything you can tell me about
the crime you're being charged with?

156
00:10:13,940 --> 00:10:14,940
No.

157
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:17,240
Okay.

158
00:10:18,140 --> 00:10:19,140
Can I go now?

159
00:10:20,940 --> 00:10:21,940
Sure.

160
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:26,960
See you tomorrow.

161
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:29,760
Who are you again?

162
00:10:30,460 --> 00:10:31,520
You're a lawyer, kid.

163
00:10:40,750 --> 00:10:44,050
How long did you work at Owen, Pierce,
McIntyre and Reynolds, Miss Kincaid?

164
00:10:44,190 --> 00:10:45,049
Eight years.

165
00:10:45,050 --> 00:10:46,670
I was hired right out of law school.

166
00:10:48,090 --> 00:10:51,470
What were you told about your
performance during that time?

167
00:10:51,690 --> 00:10:56,430
I was told that my analytical skills
were first rate, as were my briefs, as

168
00:10:56,430 --> 00:11:00,730
my performance as a litigator, as was my
ability to supervise other associates.

169
00:11:01,130 --> 00:11:03,750
Were any conversations held with
reference to your being made partner?

170
00:11:04,010 --> 00:11:07,310
Yes. In June of 1989, I came up for
partnership review.

171
00:11:07,550 --> 00:11:08,550
What were you told?

172
00:11:08,650 --> 00:11:13,630
I was told that while my work as an
attorney was outstanding, my quote

173
00:11:13,630 --> 00:11:15,870
people skills needed some adjustment.

174
00:11:16,190 --> 00:11:21,350
I was told that I could be abrasive, I
could be terse, and I was told that I

175
00:11:21,350 --> 00:11:22,350
lacked a sense of humor.

176
00:11:22,690 --> 00:11:23,710
How did you respond?

177
00:11:24,010 --> 00:11:27,750
I said that I would work on it. Did you
work on it? Yes, I tried to be a little

178
00:11:27,750 --> 00:11:33,770
more patient in dealing with associates,
tried to explain myself more, even

179
00:11:33,770 --> 00:11:35,130
tried telling an occasional joke.

180
00:11:35,820 --> 00:11:38,540
Would you tell the court what happened
the next time you came up for

181
00:11:38,540 --> 00:11:41,660
review? I was told that I wasn't on the
partnership track.

182
00:11:42,620 --> 00:11:46,520
Period. Did any of the partners at Owen,
Pierce, McIntyre and Reynolds tell you

183
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:47,920
why? Steve Bullock did.

184
00:11:48,500 --> 00:11:51,680
I went into his office and asked him
point blank why I wasn't being

185
00:11:51,680 --> 00:11:52,439
for partner.

186
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:57,240
He said, Judith, I'll deny it if you
ever quote me, but the truth is, you're

187
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:58,240
just too butch.

188
00:11:58,700 --> 00:11:59,900
I have no further questions.

189
00:12:03,140 --> 00:12:04,240
Would you say...

190
00:12:04,620 --> 00:12:09,240
that one's ability to get along with
other people was in any way significant

191
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,700
evaluating one's performance as an
attorney.

192
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,840
I get along with people just fine, Mr.
McCafferty. Do you?

193
00:12:15,180 --> 00:12:21,960
February 10th, 1991, an associate by the
name of Robin Michael, after working

194
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:26,440
14 -hour days for two weeks straight,
was leaving the office at 6 p .m. to

195
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,780
attend a hockey game. You stopped him at
the door, told him you had him fired.

196
00:12:31,500 --> 00:12:35,060
If he went. I was waiting on research he
was responsible for. It couldn't have

197
00:12:35,060 --> 00:12:36,220
waited till the following day?

198
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:43,160
No. December 14th, 1990, you initiated a
confrontation with Bob Connolly, a

199
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,080
senior member at the firm, because of an
imagined slight.

200
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,820
And you saw fit to do so in front of a
client. It wasn't imagined.

201
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,740
I felt as though Bob Connolly had
addressed me in a condescending tone of

202
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,080
Well, would you tell us, Miss Kincaid,
what you hoped to accomplish by

203
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,540
initiating a confrontation in front of a
client?

204
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,500
I didn't hope to accomplish anything,
Mr.

205
00:13:03,700 --> 00:13:05,980
McCafferty. I did it because I found Mr.

206
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,920
Connolly's behavior intolerable.

207
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,620
Do you fit in at Owen, Pierce, McIntyre,
and Reynolds, Miss McGade? I wasn't

208
00:13:13,620 --> 00:13:14,620
allowed to fit in.

209
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:16,400
I'm not sexy.

210
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:17,640
I'm not funny.

211
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,220
And I don't know the secret handshake.

212
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,180
If they didn't want me around, they
should have said so. I think in a manner

213
00:13:24,180 --> 00:13:28,320
speaking, that's what they did. Isn't
it, Miss McGade? I put my heart and soul

214
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:29,320
into that job.

215
00:13:29,900 --> 00:13:30,960
I held back nothing.

216
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,920
If they weren't prepared to treat me
like a colleague, they shouldn't have

217
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:35,920
me in the first place.

218
00:13:36,860 --> 00:13:40,360
They shouldn't have stolen eight years
of my life.

219
00:13:41,540 --> 00:13:42,540
I'm finished, Your Honor.

220
00:14:05,230 --> 00:14:08,190
Hi, Debbie. I can't believe it's you.
Get in. I can't believe what you're

221
00:14:08,190 --> 00:14:10,350
driving. Hey, is she going to have a
car? I have a car.

222
00:14:10,910 --> 00:14:12,230
Good to see you.

223
00:14:15,370 --> 00:14:16,610
So you and Jeffrey are finished?

224
00:14:17,170 --> 00:14:18,230
Yeah, we're divorced.

225
00:14:18,630 --> 00:14:19,670
I'm sorry to hear that.

226
00:14:20,030 --> 00:14:22,970
Hey, it's for the best anyway. Believe
me, we would have killed each other if

227
00:14:22,970 --> 00:14:23,970
would have stayed together.

228
00:14:24,470 --> 00:14:25,470
How's his health?

229
00:14:26,090 --> 00:14:27,090
Mentally, he's terminal.

230
00:14:27,450 --> 00:14:28,450
Physically, he's fine.

231
00:14:29,190 --> 00:14:30,169
How's Sidney?

232
00:14:30,170 --> 00:14:31,590
Good. Charlie?

233
00:14:31,910 --> 00:14:34,170
Good. Everybody's just where they were
when you left.

234
00:14:34,830 --> 00:14:36,510
You know, I think about you guys a lot.

235
00:14:37,150 --> 00:14:38,150
Yeah? Yeah.

236
00:14:39,790 --> 00:14:42,090
So, what have you been doing since
you're out here?

237
00:14:42,370 --> 00:14:44,470
Ah, you know, a little bit of this, a
little bit of that.

238
00:14:44,910 --> 00:14:48,370
You know, looking for a job, meeting
people, going on a lot of blind dates,

239
00:14:48,430 --> 00:14:49,610
checking out the local culture.

240
00:14:50,490 --> 00:14:51,930
Not much like New York, is it?

241
00:14:52,130 --> 00:14:53,370
Not anything like New York.

242
00:14:53,730 --> 00:14:59,130
Clean, sunny all the time, nobody
jaywalked, nobody has had a dress.

243
00:14:59,730 --> 00:15:00,830
Other than that, I love it.

244
00:15:03,050 --> 00:15:04,330
You want to work for me while I'm in
town?

245
00:15:04,590 --> 00:15:05,589
You need somebody?

246
00:15:05,590 --> 00:15:06,590
Yes, I need somebody.

247
00:15:06,870 --> 00:15:08,730
Oh, I would love to work for you.

248
00:15:09,090 --> 00:15:11,410
In addition to everything else, I could
use some help getting around town.

249
00:15:11,690 --> 00:15:12,569
What do you mean?

250
00:15:12,570 --> 00:15:13,570
I don't drive.

251
00:15:13,730 --> 00:15:14,830
What do you mean you don't drive?

252
00:15:15,090 --> 00:15:17,490
I've lived in New York City all my life.
Denise, I never learned to drive.

253
00:15:18,170 --> 00:15:19,170
I'll be your driver.

254
00:15:19,990 --> 00:15:20,990
Great.

255
00:15:21,510 --> 00:15:24,770
You know, you don't know how much easier
it is to get around out here than it is

256
00:15:24,770 --> 00:15:28,670
in New York. I mean, it hardly ever
rains. You never, ever have to fight for

257
00:15:28,670 --> 00:15:31,750
cab. People are courteous. They're more
relaxed. You know, they're not always

258
00:15:31,750 --> 00:15:32,750
trying to kill each other.

259
00:15:37,190 --> 00:15:38,370
What are you looking at?

260
00:15:38,630 --> 00:15:39,770
I'm looking at you.

261
00:15:40,610 --> 00:15:42,490
And I'm liking what I see.

262
00:15:42,910 --> 00:15:43,849
Oh, really?

263
00:15:43,850 --> 00:15:44,689
That's right.

264
00:15:44,690 --> 00:15:45,870
Give me your telephone number.

265
00:15:46,090 --> 00:15:47,069
Drop dead.

266
00:15:47,070 --> 00:15:48,210
Give me your telephone number.

267
00:15:48,550 --> 00:15:49,389
Let's go.

268
00:15:49,390 --> 00:15:50,390
Come on.

269
00:15:53,870 --> 00:15:56,670
Court will come to order. Judge Shays
presiding.

270
00:16:00,910 --> 00:16:01,910
Be seated.

271
00:16:03,790 --> 00:16:04,629
People v.

272
00:16:04,630 --> 00:16:05,630
Sandy Morrison.

273
00:16:05,670 --> 00:16:07,890
Thomas Mullaney for the prosecution,
Your Honor.

274
00:16:08,130 --> 00:16:12,750
The defendant is charged under Section
189 of the California Penal Code with

275
00:16:12,750 --> 00:16:13,750
murder in the first degree.

276
00:16:13,990 --> 00:16:16,930
My name is Eli Levinson, Your Honor. I'm
an attorney licensed to practice in the

277
00:16:16,930 --> 00:16:21,030
state of New York. My appearance on Mr.
Morrison's behalf is pro hoc vice. Do

278
00:16:21,030 --> 00:16:23,130
you have supporting papers for a pro hoc
vice appearance?

279
00:16:23,490 --> 00:16:24,309
I do.

280
00:16:24,310 --> 00:16:25,310
Approach.

281
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:32,380
Is your client prepared to enter a plea?

282
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,620
At this point, Your Honor, I really
haven't had an adequate opportunity to

283
00:16:35,620 --> 00:16:39,000
confer with my client. I beg the court's
indulgence that he might enter a plea

284
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:39,819
at a later date.

285
00:16:39,820 --> 00:16:42,100
I'll set it down for Thursday. Is that
all right, Mr. Mullaney?

286
00:16:42,420 --> 00:16:43,420
Yes, it is, Your Honor.

287
00:16:43,620 --> 00:16:46,940
At this time, Your Honor, I'd also move
for Mr. Mullaney's disqualification.

288
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,480
On what grounds? On the grounds that my
appearance in the state of California is

289
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,740
in association with the firm of
Mackenzie Brackman Becker, Kelsey

290
00:16:53,740 --> 00:16:57,340
Morales, a firm of which I believe Mr.
Mullaney was a member. Your Honor, I

291
00:16:57,340 --> 00:16:59,560
haven't been a member of the firm for
more than a year.

292
00:16:59,820 --> 00:17:01,920
And I haven't met Mr. Levinson until
today.

293
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,260
I'm going to have to take this matter
under advisement, gentlemen. I am not

294
00:17:06,260 --> 00:17:07,640
prepared to rule on this now.

295
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,920
Your Honor, in that I sense this is
little more than a delaying tactic. I'm

296
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,900
prepared to withdraw from the case. My
office will appoint another prosecutor.

297
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,920
Very well. I would assume that all
evidence related to this case be made

298
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,440
available, be it inculpatory or
exculpatory. I would also ask that at

299
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,880
hearing the court entertain an
application for bail. I believe that

300
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,160
Levinson looks over the evidence,
inculpatory and exculpatory, he will

301
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,760
to pursue his application for bail. Why
is that?

302
00:17:33,180 --> 00:17:34,440
Mr. Morrison confessed.

303
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:45,700
I'll see you back at the office.

304
00:17:46,260 --> 00:17:47,260
Excuse me.

305
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,200
You're Sandy's parents?

306
00:17:50,180 --> 00:17:51,980
Yes, we are. I'm Jonah Berkey.

307
00:17:52,300 --> 00:17:53,800
It was my wife who was killed.

308
00:17:54,780 --> 00:18:00,100
I want you to know that I'm not unaware
of your pain in all of this, and I

309
00:18:00,100 --> 00:18:03,680
certainly don't want you to feel as
though I'm going to be sitting here in

310
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,220
looking at you or your son, for that
matter, with hatred.

311
00:18:07,500 --> 00:18:12,400
This is a tragedy, and it's a tragedy
for all of us. Yes, it is.

312
00:18:13,650 --> 00:18:15,470
Thank you for saying that.

313
00:18:15,790 --> 00:18:19,030
If Gail were here, she would have said
it. But since she isn't, I know that she

314
00:18:19,030 --> 00:18:20,030
would want me to.

315
00:18:25,250 --> 00:18:28,850
Well, girl, I was pleased with
yesterday. What about you? I thought it

316
00:18:28,850 --> 00:18:30,530
well. The captain, he got to me.

317
00:18:31,230 --> 00:18:32,430
A little. It's okay, though.

318
00:18:32,830 --> 00:18:34,270
I didn't want him to get to me.

319
00:18:34,490 --> 00:18:37,410
From the jury's perspective, it'll
probably work to your advantage that he

320
00:18:38,230 --> 00:18:39,230
Sylvia.

321
00:18:39,770 --> 00:18:40,770
Hello, Judith.

322
00:18:40,850 --> 00:18:42,590
I didn't expect they'd have you hitting
him.

323
00:18:42,830 --> 00:18:43,829
What?

324
00:18:43,830 --> 00:18:45,450
I am a member of the firm.

325
00:18:46,230 --> 00:18:50,550
They're using you as window dressing,
Sylvia. I don't choose to see it that

326
00:18:50,610 --> 00:18:52,870
Judith. I believe I'm serving a useful
function.

327
00:18:55,230 --> 00:18:56,350
May we join you?

328
00:18:56,810 --> 00:18:58,130
I'd rather that you didn't.

329
00:19:01,910 --> 00:19:08,630
Would you tell us

330
00:19:08,630 --> 00:19:11,810
why an offer of partnership wasn't made
to...

331
00:19:12,190 --> 00:19:16,070
Judith Kincaid? I'd say it was a
combination of things. Her work was

332
00:19:16,210 --> 00:19:17,250
albeit not exceptional.

333
00:19:18,170 --> 00:19:23,610
She demonstrated no real potential for
generating business, and her personality

334
00:19:23,610 --> 00:19:26,910
most definitely hurt her. In what way
did it hurt her?

335
00:19:27,130 --> 00:19:30,910
Those of us who worked with her found
her to be rather severe, cold even.

336
00:19:31,450 --> 00:19:36,310
She had a low flashpoint. She tended to
be, well, abrasive, bossy, ill

337
00:19:36,310 --> 00:19:38,190
-tempered, not a lot of fun to be
around.

338
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,860
Given all that, we decided she wasn't
partnership material.

339
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,920
Was this determination influenced by the
fact that she's a woman?

340
00:19:45,300 --> 00:19:46,340
Absolutely not.

341
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,480
If anything, I'd say it gave her an
advantage.

342
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,320
We're desperately trying to bring in
some women partners.

343
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:52,940
We're in law schools recruiting.

344
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:57,680
We have more women associates at the
firm now than at any time in the past

345
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:01,100
history. I think that at least one of
them is going to make partner.

346
00:20:01,340 --> 00:20:02,660
I assure you, we want a woman.

347
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,780
We just didn't want this woman.

348
00:20:06,020 --> 00:20:07,020
I have nothing further.

349
00:20:09,930 --> 00:20:13,370
How many attorneys are there in your
firm, Mr. McIntyre? Forty -three.

350
00:20:13,650 --> 00:20:14,770
How many partners?

351
00:20:15,170 --> 00:20:17,530
Ten senior partners, fourteen junior
partners.

352
00:20:18,250 --> 00:20:20,110
How many senior partners are women?

353
00:20:20,650 --> 00:20:24,910
None. How many junior partners are
women? I'm not unaware that there's a

354
00:20:24,910 --> 00:20:25,910
problem.

355
00:20:26,210 --> 00:20:29,450
We are in need of the humanizing
influence a woman would bring.

356
00:20:29,820 --> 00:20:31,380
The right woman just hasn't come along.

357
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:32,820
The truth is, she doesn't exist.

358
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,540
The attributes you want in a woman and
the attributes you want in a lawyer are

359
00:20:36,540 --> 00:20:39,520
mutually exclusive. Your Honor. What
you've done is nothing more than to

360
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:43,600
construct an elaborate pretext for never
having to allow a woman into what you

361
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,000
like to think of as your private club.

362
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,220
Look, I'm not going to be bullied by
her, and I'm not going to be bullied by

363
00:20:48,220 --> 00:20:49,219
you.

364
00:20:49,220 --> 00:20:52,600
Every time you don't get what you want,
it's because you're a woman, right?

365
00:20:52,860 --> 00:20:55,060
It's the glass ceiling, whatever that
is.

366
00:20:55,260 --> 00:20:56,260
Well, you know what?

367
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,560
I'm a little sick of all your whining.

368
00:20:59,180 --> 00:21:00,680
I'm sick of all who's whining, Mr.

369
00:21:00,900 --> 00:21:01,900
McIntyre.

370
00:21:03,100 --> 00:21:05,780
Forgive me, Your Honor. I didn't mean to
speak in generalities.

371
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,360
I'm the one that asked the question, Mr.
McIntyre. Who's whining were you

372
00:21:09,360 --> 00:21:12,880
referring to? I was referring to the
plaintiff, and only the plaintiff. Your

373
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,920
Honor, at this time, I'd like to
announce my intention to call Sylvia

374
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:16,479
a witness.

375
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:17,219
I object.

376
00:21:17,220 --> 00:21:20,100
Your Honor, Sylvia Reiner is a member of
the defense team in this case.

377
00:21:20,300 --> 00:21:23,640
Your Honor, I insist on being able to
examine the policies of this firm as

378
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:24,640
pertain to women.

379
00:21:25,150 --> 00:21:29,030
I believe the jury is entitled to
determine for themselves who it was Mr.

380
00:21:29,170 --> 00:21:30,390
McIntyre was referring to.

381
00:21:30,970 --> 00:21:33,170
Given the lateness of the hour, we'll
adjourn for today.

382
00:21:33,630 --> 00:21:36,810
When we convene again tomorrow morning,
you may call Miss Reiner to the stand.

383
00:21:37,810 --> 00:21:40,670
Though witness is excused, court is
adjourned.

384
00:21:45,070 --> 00:21:49,630
My firm specializes in environmental
law, and that's the field I'm primarily

385
00:21:49,630 --> 00:21:52,390
interested in. You have a good deal of
litigation experience, it seems.

386
00:21:52,730 --> 00:21:53,730
Yes, I do.

387
00:21:53,790 --> 00:21:54,790
Very impressive.

388
00:21:55,130 --> 00:21:58,710
I appreciate you saying that, but before
I'd consider joining this organization,

389
00:21:59,030 --> 00:22:00,670
there are a few things we'd have to
address.

390
00:22:01,090 --> 00:22:01,829
Like what?

391
00:22:01,830 --> 00:22:04,890
The air in this building is bad. There
has to be significantly better

392
00:22:04,890 --> 00:22:08,710
circulation. I require ergonomically
correct seating for myself and my

393
00:22:08,710 --> 00:22:12,490
assistant, as well as radiation
shielding for all the video display

394
00:22:13,350 --> 00:22:17,570
Look, it's one thing to take on
environmental causes where deep pocket

395
00:22:17,570 --> 00:22:18,810
defendants are involved.

396
00:22:19,090 --> 00:22:21,890
It's another thing to put one's own
affairs in order.

397
00:22:22,350 --> 00:22:25,410
In other words, are you prepared to walk
it like you talk it?

398
00:22:27,630 --> 00:22:29,030
I don't believe we have a resume.

399
00:22:29,490 --> 00:22:31,910
Forget the resume. I haven't been
working for the last three years.

400
00:22:32,190 --> 00:22:33,210
What have you been doing?

401
00:22:33,450 --> 00:22:34,450
I've been in jail.

402
00:22:34,710 --> 00:22:36,130
I was convicted of mail fraud.

403
00:22:36,610 --> 00:22:39,490
I served 28 months. Now I'm out and I'm
raring to go.

404
00:22:39,690 --> 00:22:43,430
How are you able to practice law if you
were convicted of mail fraud?

405
00:22:43,690 --> 00:22:44,870
I'm not able to practice law.

406
00:22:45,110 --> 00:22:49,130
What I am able to do is make a great
deal of money in commercial real estate

407
00:22:49,130 --> 00:22:53,840
syndication. What I need is a base of
operations from which to do it.

408
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,960
I guess I'd like to start off by asking
about maternity leave.

409
00:23:10,180 --> 00:23:11,180
Miss Kelsey.

410
00:23:12,860 --> 00:23:13,860
Yes, hi.

411
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,420
I wonder if I could talk to you for a
minute.

412
00:23:17,500 --> 00:23:18,500
Come in.

413
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:26,640
I'd like to know what it is you hope to
accomplish, really, by calling me as a

414
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,220
witness. Exactly what I said I hope to
accomplish.

415
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:33,300
To demonstrate that the way my client
was treated is indicative of the way

416
00:23:33,300 --> 00:23:34,480
women at your firm are treated.

417
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,000
I have no complaints about how I was
treated.

418
00:23:37,660 --> 00:23:40,180
I understand that. Then why call me as a
witness?

419
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:44,960
My testimony isn't going to affect the
outcome of this case one way or another.

420
00:23:45,220 --> 00:23:47,520
If I felt that way, I wouldn't call you
as a witness.

421
00:23:49,620 --> 00:23:51,280
You're a partner here, Miss Kelsey?

422
00:23:51,540 --> 00:23:52,900
Yes. You're a partner.

423
00:23:53,420 --> 00:23:56,820
Judith could become a partner at any
number of firms, I'm sure.

424
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,220
You two are bright, successful young
women.

425
00:24:00,700 --> 00:24:05,840
Why is it necessary for you to do this
to me? Why is it necessary to humiliate

426
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:07,960
me? I'm not trying to humiliate you,
Miss Reiner.

427
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,280
That's what you're going to do. You're
going to paint me as this poor, pathetic

428
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:16,060
creature who's worked her entire adult
life in return for whatever scraps these

429
00:24:16,060 --> 00:24:17,360
men have thrown her from the table.

430
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,820
I don't want to be depicted that way.
Can you understand that?

431
00:24:23,660 --> 00:24:27,160
Obviously, it's not an issue of any
significance.

432
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:41,000
Are you married, Miss Reiner?

433
00:24:41,260 --> 00:24:44,560
Objection. Irrelevant. Your Honor, I
think the jury's entitled to view the

434
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,900
totality of circumstances affecting this
woman.

435
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:48,800
I'll allow it.

436
00:24:49,140 --> 00:24:50,140
I'm divorced.

437
00:24:50,420 --> 00:24:51,420
Do you have children?

438
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,260
I have three grown children.

439
00:24:53,540 --> 00:24:54,780
How long have you been divorced?

440
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:56,480
Since 1970.

441
00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:00,160
Who provided most of the income that you
and your children lived on, Miss

442
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,060
Reiner? I provided all the income.

443
00:25:03,020 --> 00:25:06,200
What year did you come to work for Owen
Pierce McIntyre and Reynolds?

444
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,880
1962. And you've remained there ever
since as an associate, is that right?

445
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:11,759
I have.

446
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,280
Now, as time went on, one of your
responsibilities was to train other

447
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:16,380
associates, wasn't it?

448
00:25:17,140 --> 00:25:21,320
Yes. Yet there were a variety of
perquisites and privileges extended to

449
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,280
associates that weren't extended to you,
weren't there? I really have no

450
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,040
complaints about the way I've been
treated.

451
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:27,440
Were you given your own office?

452
00:25:27,740 --> 00:25:29,560
No, I wasn't. Your own secretary?

453
00:25:29,980 --> 00:25:34,000
No. Isn't it a fact, Miss Reiner, that
you make less money than associates whom

454
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,260
you yourself have trained?

455
00:25:35,500 --> 00:25:38,680
I wouldn't know the answer to that
question. Isn't it also a fact, Miss

456
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,840
that until this trial you were never
once allowed to set foot in a courtroom?

457
00:25:42,140 --> 00:25:43,900
As I said, I have no complaints.

458
00:25:44,580 --> 00:25:47,680
Have you seen the evaluation that was
made when you first came up for

459
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,400
partnership review, Miss Reiner?

460
00:25:49,620 --> 00:25:53,760
No, I haven't. I have a copy of it here.
I ask that it be admitted into evidence

461
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,260
as plaintiff's exhibit number five.

462
00:25:55,780 --> 00:25:57,960
Objection! This evaluation is ancient
history.

463
00:25:58,380 --> 00:26:01,580
Attitudes towards women across the board
were totally different then. I would

464
00:26:01,580 --> 00:26:04,280
maintain, Your Honor, that what we're
here to determine is just how different

465
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,600
they are. It seems to me that the only
thing that's different is the degree of

466
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,720
subterfuge those attitudes are concealed
behind.

467
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:11,080
I'll allow it to come in.

468
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:19,500
I quote, Sylvia is, like most women,
good with details, but utterly lacking

469
00:26:19,500 --> 00:26:20,820
fire or leadership potential.

470
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:23,660
Loyal as a St. Bernard.

471
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,460
Keep her chained to the doghouse.

472
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,180
Feed her once a day, and she'll follow
us anywhere.

473
00:26:32,180 --> 00:26:33,900
Definitely not partnership material.

474
00:26:34,120 --> 00:26:35,120
Not even close.

475
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,620
Would you agree with that
characterization?

476
00:26:41,780 --> 00:26:44,680
I have no complaints about the way I was
treated.

477
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,340
Is it possible, Miss Reiner, that having
to raise three children on your own

478
00:26:48,340 --> 00:26:49,640
taught you to have no complaints?

479
00:26:50,780 --> 00:26:52,680
You have no right to do this.

480
00:26:53,980 --> 00:26:56,260
This is supposed to be about your life.

481
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,500
You have no right to force me to talk
about my life.

482
00:27:00,900 --> 00:27:02,480
I apologize, Miss Reiner.

483
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:04,840
Nothing further.

484
00:27:10,820 --> 00:27:13,160
I'm looking for Beverly Halloran. You
found her.

485
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,240
I was told that you were assigned to the
Morrison case.

486
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:16,579
Who are you?

487
00:27:16,580 --> 00:27:18,920
I'm Eli Levinson. I'm representing Sandy
Morrison.

488
00:27:19,740 --> 00:27:20,740
Sit down.

489
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,500
I assume you know we're dealing with
someone who's quite ill.

490
00:27:24,700 --> 00:27:25,700
Are we?

491
00:27:26,060 --> 00:27:27,140
Have you studied his file?

492
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,060
Yes. Then what's the question?

493
00:27:29,540 --> 00:27:31,640
He's been institutionalized half a dozen
times.

494
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,700
He's been diagnosed as a clinical
bipolar depressive.

495
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,520
You don't doubt that that was a factor,
do you? A factor in what?

496
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,540
A factor in Morrison having killed Gail
Bergey.

497
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:47,240
Assuming, of course, that he did. Your
client is a very dangerous man, Mr.

498
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,920
Levinson. I'm not interested in his
clinical diagnosis.

499
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,540
I'm interested in getting him off the
street. Me too.

500
00:27:53,420 --> 00:27:55,540
But the truth is, he never should have
been on the street.

501
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,340
And if you force me to try this case, I
will subpoena every shrink and hospital

502
00:27:59,340 --> 00:28:00,720
administrator this kid ever saw.

503
00:28:00,980 --> 00:28:04,000
Anyone who had anything to do with
putting him on the street will be called

504
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,660
witness. I'll make this trial about how
Sandy Morrison got to be a killer, not

505
00:28:07,660 --> 00:28:08,660
whether or not he was one.

506
00:28:08,740 --> 00:28:11,800
You can try to make it about that, Mr.
Levinson. Whether you succeed or not

507
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:12,800
depends on the judge.

508
00:28:12,860 --> 00:28:13,860
You're right.

509
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,520
And I'm more than willing to take that
chance.

510
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:18,680
What is it you're looking for?

511
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:21,440
Not guilty by reason of insanity.

512
00:28:22,209 --> 00:28:24,490
Long -term commitment to a secure mental
hospital.

513
00:28:25,330 --> 00:28:29,010
Come on, that should satisfy your need
to get him off the street and my need to

514
00:28:29,010 --> 00:28:30,010
get him some help.

515
00:28:30,050 --> 00:28:32,530
I have your assurance you won't fight me
on the issue of confinement.

516
00:28:33,010 --> 00:28:34,010
Absolutely.

517
00:28:37,370 --> 00:28:38,370
Okay.

518
00:28:38,690 --> 00:28:42,010
He pleads guilty in court, I won't
oppose it, and we'll schedule a

519
00:28:42,010 --> 00:28:45,930
hearing. He also remains in custody
until such time as he can be transferred

520
00:28:45,930 --> 00:28:46,930
a mental hospital.

521
00:28:47,370 --> 00:28:48,370
Agreed.

522
00:28:50,430 --> 00:28:51,430
Okay.

523
00:28:52,699 --> 00:28:54,560
Well, nice doing business with you,
Counselor.

524
00:28:55,220 --> 00:28:56,380
Nice doing business with you.

525
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,700
Are you sure I can't interest you in a
little wine? They've got a great

526
00:29:04,700 --> 00:29:07,040
selection. Thank you. No, I don't drink.

527
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:12,120
Everything God created is good, and
nothing is to be rejected if it's

528
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:13,120
with thanksgiving.

529
00:29:13,140 --> 00:29:15,180
1 Timothy, chapter 4.

530
00:29:15,780 --> 00:29:17,720
Why did you ask me to lunch, Mr. Becker?

531
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,140
I was very impressed with you the other
day.

532
00:29:21,770 --> 00:29:25,070
I was hoping I could interest you in the
field of matrimonial law, working

533
00:29:25,070 --> 00:29:27,890
directly under me, so to speak.

534
00:29:28,590 --> 00:29:30,550
Does that mean I have the job?

535
00:29:30,910 --> 00:29:33,710
Well, partners still have to vote on it,
but I'd say you're a pretty serious

536
00:29:33,710 --> 00:29:37,770
contender. Well, maybe we better wait
until they've made a decision.

537
00:29:38,330 --> 00:29:40,510
Are you involved with anyone at the
present time?

538
00:29:42,110 --> 00:29:43,110
No, I'm not.

539
00:29:43,490 --> 00:29:47,550
Well, praise the Lord, as it happens,
neither am I.

540
00:29:48,780 --> 00:29:53,760
Mr. Becker, am I correct in assuming
that you're interested in entering into

541
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,060
some sort of romantic relationship with
me?

542
00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,460
Possible inappropriateness of such
candor notwithstanding, interested would

543
00:30:00,460 --> 00:30:01,820
far too mild of a word.

544
00:30:02,540 --> 00:30:04,120
Please understand something.

545
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,040
I don't believe in recreational sex.

546
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,460
Do not deprive each other so that you
may devote yourselves to prayer.

547
00:30:10,860 --> 00:30:14,600
Come together so that Satan will not
tempt you because of your lack of self

548
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,360
-control. 1 Corinthians, chapter 7.

549
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:21,080
Paul's letter to the Corinthians was
referring to married couples.

550
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,220
But the principle still obtains, does it
not?

551
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,240
No, Mr. Becker, it does not.

552
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:28,600
I'm a virgin.

553
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:33,300
I'm a virgin by choice, and I will
remain a virgin until the night of my

554
00:30:33,300 --> 00:30:34,300
wedding.

555
00:30:35,300 --> 00:30:40,120
Now, if there's nothing else we need to
discuss, I'd like to go.

556
00:30:40,860 --> 00:30:43,880
I do hope you'll still consider me for
the position.

557
00:30:44,730 --> 00:30:48,290
And I hope that you'll be able to
confine our relationship, should I get

558
00:30:48,290 --> 00:30:51,630
position, to one strictly professional
in nature.

559
00:30:52,790 --> 00:30:55,550
And I also hope that you will continue
to read the Bible.

560
00:31:02,530 --> 00:31:04,110
My God, she's a virgin.

561
00:31:06,390 --> 00:31:09,970
There are those who will tell you that
Judith Kincaid is in here asking for

562
00:31:09,970 --> 00:31:10,970
special treatment.

563
00:31:11,340 --> 00:31:14,360
I'm here to tell you that the reason
Judith Kincaid has come into this

564
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,580
is that she's already gotten special
treatment.

565
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,940
She has been judged, not as an attorney,
but as a woman attorney.

566
00:31:21,620 --> 00:31:26,160
She found herself being punished for the
very same behavior for which male

567
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:27,320
associates were rewarded.

568
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:32,920
They were assertive. She was abrasive.
They showed leadership. She was bossy.

569
00:31:33,660 --> 00:31:34,980
They were businesslike.

570
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:36,260
She was cold.

571
00:31:37,850 --> 00:31:41,230
Nobody told her when she first
interviewed with the firm that she would

572
00:31:41,230 --> 00:31:44,650
judged not on how hard she worked, but
on how much fun she was to be around.

573
00:31:45,050 --> 00:31:49,030
Nobody told her that her failure to
smile or her lack of interest in sports

574
00:31:49,030 --> 00:31:51,970
would represent an insurmountable
obstacle to advancement.

575
00:31:52,610 --> 00:31:57,470
And the reason nobody told her was that
the men who interviewed her wanted her

576
00:31:57,470 --> 00:31:58,470
to work for them.

577
00:31:58,679 --> 00:32:03,180
They knew that this was a bright, driven
attorney who could be dependent upon to

578
00:32:03,180 --> 00:32:06,480
work her tail off. They knew that it
would be six or seven years before

579
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,060
have to tell her that she wasn't going
to make partner.

580
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,240
They knew what a good deal they had
here.

581
00:32:12,180 --> 00:32:15,480
They had only to look at the deal they
had with Sylvia Reiner.

582
00:32:17,870 --> 00:32:21,290
Now, I have no doubt but that the men of
Owen Pierce McIntyre and Reynolds are

583
00:32:21,290 --> 00:32:24,930
made somewhat uncomfortable by Judith
Kincaid. I have no doubt that they are

584
00:32:24,930 --> 00:32:27,910
more comfortable having as partners
other men like themselves.

585
00:32:28,510 --> 00:32:31,690
We ask that you consider the cost of
that comfort.

586
00:32:32,670 --> 00:32:37,270
We ask that you look at the lives that
are expended without recognition or

587
00:32:37,270 --> 00:32:39,830
reward. We ask that you do something
about it.

588
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:51,900
When Judith Kincaid came to work at Owen
Pierce McIntyre and Reynolds, what did

589
00:32:51,900 --> 00:32:53,060
she have a right to expect?

590
00:32:54,420 --> 00:32:58,500
She had the right to expect to be paid
fairly and be given the same

591
00:32:58,500 --> 00:33:01,340
opportunities as other associates at the
firm.

592
00:33:02,180 --> 00:33:06,700
The fact that she was judged and found
wanting does not translate into an act

593
00:33:06,700 --> 00:33:07,700
discrimination.

594
00:33:08,260 --> 00:33:12,860
Her work was satisfactory, her demeanor
less so.

595
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:17,060
Given the range of candidates, the
senior partners chose who they felt were

596
00:33:17,060 --> 00:33:21,560
qualified. They made a decision. So long
as there were legitimate reasons for

597
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:25,460
that decision, they were wholly within
their rights to make it. If you decide

598
00:33:25,460 --> 00:33:29,680
otherwise, if you compensate Judith
Kincaid for this alleged wrong, by

599
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:34,060
extension, you will hurt the prospects
of all women who work.

600
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:38,260
He will presume by inference that women
can't be judged honestly, that they

601
00:33:38,260 --> 00:33:43,300
can't compete on the basis of their own
abilities, that they need attorneys

602
00:33:43,300 --> 00:33:44,800
shepherding their progress.

603
00:33:45,220 --> 00:33:51,720
I believe that hard work and talent will
result in women taking their rightful

604
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:57,260
place alongside men in all strata of
society, but in order for that to

605
00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,780
they must be permitted to fail.

606
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:05,300
All of us who work for a living stand on
our own two feet. We all vie for

607
00:34:05,300 --> 00:34:10,580
promotions. We are all subject to the
judgment of others. We get knocked down,

608
00:34:10,679 --> 00:34:15,739
we get back up, brush ourselves off, get
back into the ring. We learn from our

609
00:34:15,739 --> 00:34:19,000
failures. We learn from our mistakes.

610
00:34:21,380 --> 00:34:24,000
Let Judith Kincaid do the very same
thing.

611
00:34:27,620 --> 00:34:28,659
You like this place?

612
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:29,880
Yes, it's nice.

613
00:34:30,679 --> 00:34:32,320
I know the owner. Oh, yeah? Yeah.

614
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,280
Where you from in New York?

615
00:34:35,219 --> 00:34:36,820
Queen. Get out of here.

616
00:34:37,580 --> 00:34:40,639
I can't believe I'm sitting here in L
.A. with a chick from Queen.

617
00:34:40,860 --> 00:34:41,799
Why is that?

618
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:42,800
Where do you think I'm from?

619
00:34:42,900 --> 00:34:44,179
I have no idea where you're from.

620
00:34:44,500 --> 00:34:46,360
I'm from Bayside. Get out of here. Yeah.

621
00:34:48,300 --> 00:34:51,000
You just got ticketed. What do you mean
you just got ticketed? They're giving

622
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:52,000
out tickets.

623
00:34:52,300 --> 00:34:53,300
Send Maddie in here.

624
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:56,040
What's going on?

625
00:34:56,190 --> 00:34:59,130
I'm handling the parking here. What do
you mean, handling the parking?

626
00:34:59,410 --> 00:35:03,250
Well, I have a valet parking service,
among other things. I mean, last week, I

627
00:35:03,250 --> 00:35:06,990
did parties at Eddie Van Ham, Mickey
Rourke, and at Stallone's.

628
00:35:07,210 --> 00:35:08,089
I'm impressed.

629
00:35:08,090 --> 00:35:10,150
Yeah, I know. Sometimes I can't believe
it myself.

630
00:35:11,070 --> 00:35:13,530
I don't know what's going on, Anthony.
Suddenly they're handing out parking

631
00:35:13,530 --> 00:35:15,390
tickets. What, do I have to do
everything myself?

632
00:35:15,830 --> 00:35:16,970
No, you don't.

633
00:35:17,310 --> 00:35:21,770
Excuse me for the interruption there.
Hey, Matty, give the meter mate $100 or

634
00:35:21,770 --> 00:35:25,130
park it somewhere else. $100. I'm going
to end up in a jackpot. I give him $100.

635
00:35:25,250 --> 00:35:26,189
Then you're in a jackpot.

636
00:35:26,190 --> 00:35:26,848
Go ahead.

637
00:35:26,850 --> 00:35:28,310
All right, I'll take care of it.

638
00:35:29,910 --> 00:35:32,610
So you working now? Do I look like I'm
working? Yeah, you do.

639
00:35:32,830 --> 00:35:33,870
Hey. What?

640
00:35:34,430 --> 00:35:39,710
I'm sitting here entranced and entrapped
by a gorgeous woman in the borough of

641
00:35:39,710 --> 00:35:40,710
Queens.

642
00:35:40,810 --> 00:35:43,190
So it's just a coincidence that we came
to this restaurant.

643
00:35:44,130 --> 00:35:45,129
Well, what do you think?

644
00:35:45,130 --> 00:35:46,089
What do I think?

645
00:35:46,090 --> 00:35:49,350
I think I'm remembering all the reasons
why I never wanted to end up with a guy

646
00:35:49,350 --> 00:35:50,510
from Queens. That's what I think.

647
00:35:50,870 --> 00:35:51,870
Hey, how'd you like to meet Fly?

648
00:35:52,299 --> 00:35:55,420
Anthony. What? I hate to bother you, but
Marty's getting arrested.

649
00:35:55,780 --> 00:35:56,738
Yeah, for what?

650
00:35:56,740 --> 00:35:58,220
He offered money to the meat and meat.

651
00:35:58,940 --> 00:36:01,080
This is what I get for bringing these
meatballs out here.

652
00:36:01,660 --> 00:36:02,660
Go ahead.

653
00:36:05,460 --> 00:36:10,360
Give me five minutes, all right? I'll
straighten everything out. I come back,

654
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:14,220
finish the meal, we head out to Nicky
Blair's, and we'll hang out with Fly.

655
00:36:16,060 --> 00:36:17,060
All right, gorgeous?

656
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:17,899
All right.

657
00:36:17,900 --> 00:36:18,900
All right?

658
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:20,400
Be right back.

659
00:36:49,990 --> 00:36:51,890
Phil Garabedian. To Green.

660
00:36:52,170 --> 00:36:53,169
I agree.

661
00:36:53,170 --> 00:36:54,190
Lloyd Hasek.

662
00:36:54,450 --> 00:36:56,670
Prima Donna. I agree with that, too.

663
00:36:57,270 --> 00:36:58,430
Jane Halliday.

664
00:36:58,770 --> 00:37:00,280
Pass. Why pass?

665
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,560
Because she's a member of the religious
right. Wait a second. All we know is

666
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:05,580
that she's a young woman who happens to
believe in God.

667
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:06,839
Is that all we know?

668
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:08,500
She went to Bob Jones University.

669
00:37:09,380 --> 00:37:10,380
Yeah.

670
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:14,220
Ask her her position on freedom of
choice for women. Ask her her position

671
00:37:14,220 --> 00:37:17,760
homosexuality. She's not being nominated
for the Supreme Court, Ann. We're

672
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:18,820
looking for a first -year associate.

673
00:37:19,060 --> 00:37:22,160
Wait a minute. Whatever the relative
merits of this woman, I think the fact

674
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,600
Ann is as adamantly opposed to her as
she is could account for something.

675
00:37:25,860 --> 00:37:29,190
Do you think we shouldn't consider her?
I'm saying we shouldn't consider her. If

676
00:37:29,190 --> 00:37:31,930
we can dismiss those other people out of
hand, we can dismiss her out of hand.

677
00:37:32,070 --> 00:37:34,850
Tell me something, Stuart. How would you
feel if we were talking about a Jew?

678
00:37:35,210 --> 00:37:36,510
Not the same thing.

679
00:37:36,730 --> 00:37:37,730
Not the same thing?

680
00:37:37,870 --> 00:37:39,010
Exactly the same thing.

681
00:37:39,810 --> 00:37:43,930
This woman hasn't said one word about
abortion or homosexuality or anything

682
00:37:43,930 --> 00:37:47,830
else. What you're doing is exactly what
all those white -shoe downtown firms do

683
00:37:47,830 --> 00:37:51,390
when they sit around and refuse to
consider tainting themselves by allowing

684
00:37:51,390 --> 00:37:52,390
Jew in their midst.

685
00:37:52,510 --> 00:37:55,810
It's exactly the same thing, and the two
of you know it. It appears that since

686
00:37:55,810 --> 00:37:59,870
we started interviewing, she's far and
away the best candidate we've seen.

687
00:38:00,310 --> 00:38:01,570
And we need to hire someone.

688
00:38:02,070 --> 00:38:05,150
If she starts proselytizing, well, we'll
tell her to stop.

689
00:38:05,450 --> 00:38:07,390
If she doesn't stop, we'll get rid of
her.

690
00:38:08,110 --> 00:38:09,970
I vote we hire her. So do I.

691
00:38:10,210 --> 00:38:14,070
I vote no. Me too. I can't see keeping
her out because of her beliefs. I vote

692
00:38:14,070 --> 00:38:15,070
hire her.

693
00:38:15,210 --> 00:38:16,450
Four to three, right, Arnold?

694
00:38:17,270 --> 00:38:18,270
Four to three.

695
00:38:18,430 --> 00:38:19,430
You'll let her know, Douglas?

696
00:38:19,570 --> 00:38:20,428
Yes, I will.

697
00:38:20,430 --> 00:38:22,350
Also, see if she's free to start Monday.

698
00:38:23,690 --> 00:38:26,750
And also, find out when they're supposed
to be done with this renovation.

699
00:38:28,690 --> 00:38:31,790
Tell me, Arnie, is it possible you would
have made a slightly less impassioned

700
00:38:31,790 --> 00:38:34,430
speech if you hadn't wanted to go to bed
with her? I resent that.

701
00:38:34,770 --> 00:38:36,990
Are you saying you have no interest in
going to bed with her?

702
00:38:37,250 --> 00:38:39,130
I'm saying that the thought never
crossed my mind.

703
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:50,260
Have you tasted these things?

704
00:38:50,500 --> 00:38:53,200
What? These, California bagels.

705
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,280
Look at this, raisin, blueberry.

706
00:38:55,980 --> 00:38:57,940
I don't know what this one is. It's red.

707
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:03,860
Like cotton. I hate to tell you, Eli,
but not everybody likes hard bagels. H

708
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:04,459
they are not.

709
00:39:04,460 --> 00:39:06,080
Kosar's Bialy, they are not. Eli.

710
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,620
Barney Greengrass, the Thurgeon King,
they are not. Eli.

711
00:39:08,860 --> 00:39:10,720
What? I was going to tell you, that's
what.

712
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,300
Last night, I was at this restaurant,
and the husband of the woman who your

713
00:39:14,300 --> 00:39:16,020
client was charged with killing was
there.

714
00:39:16,340 --> 00:39:19,220
Yeah? Well, it looked like the mourning
period was over.

715
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:20,640
What do you mean?

716
00:39:20,900 --> 00:39:25,180
He was with this hot tomato, and they
were all over each other. They were

717
00:39:25,180 --> 00:39:28,480
drinking, grabbing, kissing. I mean, it
was like nauseating already.

718
00:39:28,900 --> 00:39:32,460
I mean, if it was me who died, I
wouldn't want my grieving husband doing

719
00:39:32,460 --> 00:39:33,460
this guy was doing.

720
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:34,499
Good morning.

721
00:39:34,500 --> 00:39:35,960
Leland is my secretary, Denise.

722
00:39:36,540 --> 00:39:37,660
Well, how do you do, Denise?

723
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,880
Hey, Leland, how you doing? It's okay if
I call you Leland?

724
00:39:40,100 --> 00:39:41,560
Of course.

725
00:39:42,420 --> 00:39:43,860
Cool. See you.

726
00:40:00,580 --> 00:40:02,900
Cool. I need to talk to you, Sandy.

727
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,980
I can either plead insanity or I can
plead not guilty. I need to know from

728
00:40:07,980 --> 00:40:08,980
what you want me to do.

729
00:40:09,180 --> 00:40:10,180
Don't ask me.

730
00:40:10,260 --> 00:40:11,400
I've got to ask you.

731
00:40:11,660 --> 00:40:12,940
It's you who's accused of murder.

732
00:40:13,660 --> 00:40:15,160
It's your life that's on the line.

733
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:17,900
They didn't let me finish my breakfast
this morning.

734
00:40:19,300 --> 00:40:21,180
Do you understand the nature of these
proceedings?

735
00:40:21,540 --> 00:40:22,720
Took away my cereal.

736
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:24,180
Wasn't done with it yet.

737
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,860
Sandy, do you understand?

738
00:40:28,100 --> 00:40:32,060
What you have to understand, Mr.
Levinson, I don't care.

739
00:40:34,220 --> 00:40:35,940
Did you confess because you didn't care?

740
00:40:37,300 --> 00:40:40,640
Court will come to order. Judge Rona
Shea is presiding.

741
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:42,980
First case on the docket, People v.

742
00:40:43,340 --> 00:40:44,340
Morrison.

743
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:45,640
Please be seated.

744
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:50,000
Where do we stand on this case, Ms.
Halloran? Mr. Morrison has indicated

745
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,820
counsel that he is interested in
entering a plea of insanity.

746
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:57,160
The people are prepared to agree to such
a plea, provided the defendant's

747
00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:00,580
confinement to a secure facility remains
continuous and unopposed.

748
00:41:00,820 --> 00:41:01,820
Mr. Levinson?

749
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:08,100
Mr. Levinson?

750
00:41:09,710 --> 00:41:13,010
The defense will not be entering a plea
of insanity, Your Honor. At this time,

751
00:41:13,030 --> 00:41:14,490
we would like to enter a plea of not
guilty.

752
00:41:14,790 --> 00:41:19,230
Set down for trial October 21st. The
defense would like to make an

753
00:41:19,230 --> 00:41:20,350
for bail, Your Honor.

754
00:41:20,710 --> 00:41:23,350
Denied. The defendants were mandated to
custody.

755
00:41:24,070 --> 00:41:25,070
Next case.

756
00:41:26,210 --> 00:41:27,210
You want to go now?

757
00:41:27,310 --> 00:41:28,310
Yeah.

758
00:41:29,410 --> 00:41:30,410
Hey.

759
00:41:31,750 --> 00:41:32,750
Here.

760
00:41:43,470 --> 00:41:44,470
I'll try.

761
00:41:46,070 --> 00:41:48,170
You talk out of both sides of your
mouth, Mr. Levinson.

762
00:41:48,570 --> 00:41:50,150
I had a change of heart. Oh, did you?

763
00:41:51,290 --> 00:41:53,750
Well, in the future, I would appreciate
it if you wouldn't go through the

764
00:41:53,750 --> 00:41:57,230
pretense of giving me your word, since
quite apparently it's worthless.

765
00:41:58,170 --> 00:42:01,490
You'll forgive me if my client's future
is of somewhat greater significance to

766
00:42:01,490 --> 00:42:02,970
me than remaining in your good graces.

767
00:42:03,230 --> 00:42:04,730
You think you have a shot at an
acquittal?

768
00:42:05,010 --> 00:42:06,010
Good luck.

769
00:42:06,570 --> 00:42:09,490
You also thought getting Tommy Mullaney
off this case helped your chances. Well,

770
00:42:09,530 --> 00:42:11,290
I think you may have miscalculated there
as well.

771
00:42:15,980 --> 00:42:18,220
Has the jury reached a verdict? We have,
Your Honor.

772
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:19,880
I'll say you.

773
00:42:21,220 --> 00:42:24,880
We fine for the plaintiff and award the
sum of $1 .5 million.

774
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:30,220
On the issue of specific performance,
the court rules the firm of Owen,

775
00:42:30,420 --> 00:42:34,440
McIntyre, and Reynolds is hereby
compelled to make an offer of full

776
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,480
to Judith Kincaid.

777
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:38,740
With that, we are adjourned.

778
00:42:48,310 --> 00:42:51,970
Sylvia, I'm sorry to have put you
through testifying. If I thought of what

779
00:42:51,970 --> 00:42:54,830
was going to be like for you, I never
would have done it. Given the outcome of

780
00:42:54,830 --> 00:42:56,730
the case, it's a good thing you didn't
think about it.

781
00:42:57,190 --> 00:42:58,950
We should schedule a meeting, Miss
Kelsey.

782
00:42:59,350 --> 00:43:00,350
For what purpose?

783
00:43:00,490 --> 00:43:04,230
For the purpose of determining how much
more time and effort is going to be

784
00:43:04,230 --> 00:43:05,550
consumed by this lawsuit.

785
00:43:05,790 --> 00:43:09,130
If there's a willingness on your
client's part to waive the partnership

786
00:43:09,230 --> 00:43:12,610
we would consider foregoing any appeals
and paying her the money damages in

787
00:43:12,610 --> 00:43:13,610
full.

788
00:43:14,110 --> 00:43:15,110
Judith?

789
00:43:16,010 --> 00:43:18,810
I think I'd probably agree to that. I
thought you might.

790
00:43:20,010 --> 00:43:21,010
Come on, Sal, let's go.

791
00:43:35,010 --> 00:43:36,290
Hey. So?

792
00:43:37,810 --> 00:43:38,990
Looks like we're going to trial.

793
00:43:39,910 --> 00:43:41,410
I don't think my client's guilty.

794
00:43:42,350 --> 00:43:43,950
What about his confession?

795
00:43:45,390 --> 00:43:46,910
I think he signed it because he was
nuts.

796
00:43:47,990 --> 00:43:49,450
And I think I have another suspect.

797
00:43:49,970 --> 00:43:50,970
Who?

798
00:43:51,410 --> 00:43:52,410
The husband.

799
00:43:53,790 --> 00:43:57,290
So it looks like you're going to be
around for a while.

800
00:43:58,270 --> 00:43:59,270
Looks that way.

801
00:44:00,130 --> 00:44:01,250
Good. Good.

802
00:44:03,090 --> 00:44:04,870
Do you remember the last time we saw
each other, Stuart?

803
00:44:07,330 --> 00:44:08,810
It was my grandmother's funeral.

804
00:44:09,550 --> 00:44:13,670
We went back to Anaitis to sit Shiva,
and you and I went upstairs to play

805
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:15,320
And I, uh, ooh.

806
00:44:17,240 --> 00:44:18,400
You remember all that?

807
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:19,920
Yeah.

808
00:44:21,100 --> 00:44:23,600
Good. It's one of the things to
remember, isn't it?

809
00:44:24,540 --> 00:44:29,000
This guy that I came out here to
represent, he sits there in a psychotic

810
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:32,740
and remembers these seemingly trivial
events that appear to have no

811
00:44:32,740 --> 00:44:34,120
to what's going on around him.

812
00:44:34,620 --> 00:44:37,820
And everyone sits there and looks at him
as though he were on another planet.

813
00:44:41,580 --> 00:44:43,620
Two years ago, I had a nervous
breakdown, Stuart.

814
00:44:46,100 --> 00:44:47,980
And that's the way everyone used to look
at me.

815
00:44:50,220 --> 00:44:51,280
Looks like you've recovered.

816
00:44:52,980 --> 00:44:55,280
About 90 % of the time, I feel like I
have.

817
00:44:56,820 --> 00:44:58,440
You want to go out? You want to get
something to eat?

818
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:00,640
Thanks. I don't think so.

819
00:45:00,980 --> 00:45:04,580
Look, I know you don't believe this, but
we have some very good restaurants in

820
00:45:04,580 --> 00:45:05,580
Los Angeles.

821
00:45:06,420 --> 00:45:07,420
Let's do it another night.

822
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:09,520
I got some files to read through.

823
00:45:10,190 --> 00:45:12,510
And when I get done with that, I think
I'm going to go for a walk.

824
00:45:13,210 --> 00:45:14,210
A walk?

825
00:45:14,550 --> 00:45:16,490
Eli, this is L .A. Nobody walks in L .A.

826
00:45:17,470 --> 00:45:18,750
I think I'm going to anyway.

827
00:45:20,790 --> 00:45:27,730
Listen, I just want to tell you that
whether you're here for a week or a

828
00:45:27,730 --> 00:45:30,190
or whatever, Ann and I are your family.

829
00:45:31,250 --> 00:45:32,250
And happily so.

830
00:45:33,250 --> 00:45:36,410
So I just want you to think of us that
way, okay?
