1 00:00:01,210 --> 00:00:06,490 Previously on L .A. Law. I just wanted to say Merry Christmas and thank you. 2 00:00:06,491 --> 00:00:08,129 For what? 3 00:00:08,130 --> 00:00:09,910 For being a friend when I needed one. 4 00:00:10,370 --> 00:00:11,570 Oh, that was my pleasure. 5 00:00:13,050 --> 00:00:15,249 I want 6 00:00:15,250 --> 00:00:23,049 to 7 00:00:23,050 --> 00:00:25,090 spend Christmas with my son and my wife. 8 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:30,079 And without the holidays factoring into the equation, would you still want to be 9 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:31,130 coming home? 10 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:33,700 Well, I'm getting a lawyer, Stuart. 11 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:40,160 I'm not going to sit around and wait until... I'm getting a lawyer, Stuart. 12 00:00:42,340 --> 00:00:46,999 I am not looking to mend any fences here, and I am certainly not chasing 13 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:47,879 your affection. 14 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,140 You can help me avoid the stain of an investigation. 15 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:57,619 I'm willing to pay you $300 ,000 to do it. It's a simple business deal. She's 16 00:00:57,620 --> 00:00:59,420 innocent. They have no case. 17 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,050 She's not innocent. 18 00:01:01,300 --> 00:01:05,440 Hey, come on. This benefits all of us. There's nothing to be ashamed about. 19 00:01:05,441 --> 00:01:07,899 Well, then why wasn't this out in the open, Leland? 20 00:01:07,900 --> 00:01:11,939 I wasn't hiding it. I just decided not to publicize it. I knew there'd be 21 00:01:11,940 --> 00:01:12,990 opposition. 22 00:01:13,620 --> 00:01:14,960 Thank you, Leland. 23 00:01:15,380 --> 00:01:17,740 I don't know how I could ever repay you. 24 00:01:18,180 --> 00:01:19,660 Oh, yes, you do. 25 00:01:21,060 --> 00:01:22,110 $300 ,000. 26 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,680 Is everything always about money? 27 00:01:29,620 --> 00:01:31,460 Oh, it's unanimous then. 28 00:01:31,740 --> 00:01:33,560 Victor Cifuentes becomes partner. 29 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,460 Effective 1 April. 30 00:01:35,860 --> 00:01:38,680 Next up, Abigail Perkins. Not a chance. 31 00:01:38,681 --> 00:01:42,419 Why not? Hold on now. We promised Abby when she came back that she'd be 32 00:01:42,420 --> 00:01:43,819 considered for partnership. 33 00:01:43,820 --> 00:01:47,779 And she deserves it. Abby has turned into a damn good lawyer. Maybe so, but 34 00:01:47,780 --> 00:01:48,939 everybody can be partner. 35 00:01:48,940 --> 00:01:49,990 Victor makes eight. 36 00:01:50,170 --> 00:01:54,110 Jonathan comes up in two years. Plus C .J. and Tommy Mullaney. Well, C .J. 37 00:01:54,111 --> 00:01:57,769 doesn't want it. And Mullaney will never have it. Not while I'm still alive. 38 00:01:57,770 --> 00:01:58,729 What's wrong with Tommy? 39 00:01:58,730 --> 00:02:00,290 I don't like the way he operates. 40 00:02:00,510 --> 00:02:04,310 And as history tells us, he's too self -destructive to be around very long. 41 00:02:04,590 --> 00:02:09,089 I disagree. Let's just stick to Abby. This is about Abby. C .J. and Mulaney 42 00:02:09,090 --> 00:02:10,140 not future partners. 43 00:02:10,350 --> 00:02:14,109 They are not a reason to exclude Abby Perkins. Come on, let's give her a most 44 00:02:14,110 --> 00:02:16,330 improved player, but she has zero profile. 45 00:02:16,630 --> 00:02:20,529 Partnership isn't a reward to be passed out. I like her. We all like her. The 46 00:02:20,530 --> 00:02:23,949 only question here is what's in it for us, and the answer with Abby is nothing. 47 00:02:23,950 --> 00:02:26,349 How about just acknowledging a person's loyalty? 48 00:02:26,350 --> 00:02:30,089 What about it? It's true, Ann. I hate to agree, but she's certainly no 49 00:02:30,090 --> 00:02:31,830 rainmaker. Neither are you, Stuart. 50 00:02:31,850 --> 00:02:33,050 Let's just take the vote. 51 00:02:33,580 --> 00:02:37,940 I vote yes, and I seriously recommend the rest of you do the same. I vote yes. 52 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:39,290 No. 53 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:40,920 No. No. 54 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:44,000 No? No. 55 00:02:44,780 --> 00:02:46,840 Five to two. She doesn't make it. 56 00:02:47,370 --> 00:02:48,810 You people are unbelievable. 57 00:02:48,811 --> 00:02:52,009 Hold on. We don't announce or reveal the results of this meeting to anyone 58 00:02:52,010 --> 00:02:56,109 before March 15th. Why not? Because we have three Office of Employment out to 59 00:02:56,110 --> 00:02:59,309 third -year law students who will respond by that date. Since two of them 60 00:02:59,310 --> 00:03:02,920 women who could be wary of our being tagged with the sex discrimination 61 00:03:02,921 --> 00:03:05,449 we don't need the news about Abby to push them away. 62 00:03:05,450 --> 00:03:08,369 That is disgusting. We're not going to make her partner. We should at least 63 00:03:08,370 --> 00:03:12,109 her. We can't. No, I agree with this one. If the news gets around that the 64 00:03:12,110 --> 00:03:13,490 is in and the woman's out, no. 65 00:03:13,740 --> 00:03:15,120 Could cost us. We tell nobody. 66 00:03:15,121 --> 00:03:17,979 Leland, what am I supposed... This is a partnership meeting. You have a 67 00:03:17,980 --> 00:03:20,880 fiduciary responsibility to each one of us. 68 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:22,580 You tell nobody. 69 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,270 This place is a piece of crap, you know that? 70 00:03:27,740 --> 00:03:30,680 The spirit of Rosalind Shays just lives on forever. 71 00:06:04,811 --> 00:06:12,319 Next up, a reminder to all that Jonathan Stewart and myself will be out of the 72 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,320 office tomorrow and Thursday on our war game expedition. 73 00:06:15,321 --> 00:06:18,959 You what? We announced this last week. We're part of Richard Flegel's corporate 74 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,310 team in the Industrial War Game Championship. 75 00:06:21,311 --> 00:06:24,359 Is this where a bunch of guys get together and run around the woods like 76 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,579 and shoot each other with paintballs? Richard Flegel is one of our top 77 00:06:27,580 --> 00:06:31,079 clients, and he doesn't consider it idiotic. You never told me it was an 78 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,219 overnight thing, Douglas. You never said I'd have to sleep in the forest. I 79 00:06:34,220 --> 00:06:35,960 showed you the brochure, Jonathan. 80 00:06:36,260 --> 00:06:41,020 You said it was just like you to try. I helped you with Noah. 81 00:06:41,021 --> 00:06:43,559 How about you helping out with my client? Please. 82 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:44,610 Moving on. 83 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,740 Edwards versus Dune Promotions? That's my boxing case. 84 00:06:47,741 --> 00:06:50,399 Heavyweight club fighter got hammered real bad. 85 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,519 I represent his wife was suing the promoter for planning the mismatch. How 86 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,199 you get by assumption of the risk? 87 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,839 By getting the jury to focus on the puss oozing out of his sleeves who set up 88 00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:01,890 his own client to be beaten half to death. 89 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:03,130 I see. Abby. 90 00:07:03,131 --> 00:07:07,009 I see you pushed the Eric Linders deposition till Friday? Yeah. Believe it 91 00:07:07,010 --> 00:07:10,080 not, I have been asked to be on the Phil Donahue show tomorrow. 92 00:07:10,081 --> 00:07:13,869 You're kidding. Really? They're doing a show on gun control and carry permits, 93 00:07:13,870 --> 00:07:19,049 and they're having... Well, they're having professional people who have 94 00:07:19,050 --> 00:07:23,349 themselves with firearms, and they asked me. You're really going on the show? I 95 00:07:23,350 --> 00:07:26,829 doubt it. I mean, they have three other guests. They don't need me, but they've 96 00:07:26,830 --> 00:07:30,250 asked, so I'm thinking about it. I'll be sure to set my VCR. 97 00:07:30,251 --> 00:07:31,319 All right. 98 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:32,370 We're adjourned. 99 00:07:32,371 --> 00:07:33,059 I'm 100 00:07:33,060 --> 00:07:45,560 sorry. 101 00:07:45,820 --> 00:07:49,060 I just can't act like nothing's happened here. 102 00:07:49,420 --> 00:07:51,080 We've had these two great kisses. 103 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:54,860 Well, they were great for me. 104 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,280 They were great for me, too. 105 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,390 But, you know, if we start something here, it's, um... 106 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,520 It would be very complicated. 107 00:08:02,900 --> 00:08:04,380 We work together, yeah. 108 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:05,960 With a lot of other people. 109 00:08:05,961 --> 00:08:09,659 Relationships could get serious to compromise. 110 00:08:09,660 --> 00:08:11,520 Including ours. I mean, we're friends. 111 00:08:12,300 --> 00:08:13,350 Good friends. 112 00:08:13,740 --> 00:08:19,979 And if we start something and it doesn't work out, well, that would be 113 00:08:19,980 --> 00:08:21,600 jeopardizing our relationship. 114 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,800 And that's a pretty big risk. 115 00:08:24,540 --> 00:08:25,600 At least for me. 116 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:28,530 Great. 117 00:08:30,030 --> 00:08:33,010 Well, maybe we should just play it safe. 118 00:08:37,850 --> 00:08:39,410 Pretend like nothing happened. 119 00:08:41,610 --> 00:08:43,169 I don't think I could do that. 120 00:08:46,690 --> 00:08:47,740 Me neither. 121 00:08:53,890 --> 00:08:56,050 This is the Tippmann 68 Special. 122 00:08:56,330 --> 00:08:58,410 12 -inch barrel, M16 grip. 123 00:08:59,019 --> 00:09:00,069 Semi -automatic. 124 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:01,170 Could I catch you? 125 00:09:02,500 --> 00:09:04,560 Does it hurt when it hits you? 126 00:09:05,620 --> 00:09:09,499 Look, I know you guys aren't wild about this, but let me tell you, I want to 127 00:09:09,500 --> 00:09:14,079 win. Problem with running a tampon company, people make jokes about you. 128 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,199 market a very respectable tampon, Richard. There's nothing to be ashamed 129 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,159 Just the same. I can shut a lot of mouths by winning this trophy. 130 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,380 All right. Tonight, Rancho Park, 7 o 'clock. We prep. 131 00:09:23,940 --> 00:09:25,900 Tomorrow, 6 a .m., Tarzana. 132 00:09:25,901 --> 00:09:30,889 Hey! I didn't do anything. It just went off. What do you mean, it just went off? 133 00:09:30,890 --> 00:09:33,429 I didn't touch the trigger. All right, knock it off. That paint's totally 134 00:09:33,430 --> 00:09:34,930 washable. It'll come right off. 135 00:09:35,570 --> 00:09:37,890 Hey, could be a good omen. Direct hit. 136 00:09:38,690 --> 00:09:40,070 Seven o 'clock, Rancho Park. 137 00:09:40,071 --> 00:09:43,949 You shot my father. It was a mistake. You never made a mistake. Give me that 138 00:09:43,950 --> 00:09:46,029 gun. You shouldn't have it. You know what? I don't want to go on this trip. 139 00:09:46,030 --> 00:09:48,380 You're going to be a menace to the team. I know it. 140 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:56,079 A few weeks after the fight, I began to notice that his words were slurring and 141 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:57,280 his hands began to shake. 142 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,319 And you think it was the boxing match with Hector Casales that did this to 143 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:05,759 husband? Oh, I know it was. I mean, he'd been knocked out before, but never like 144 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,080 that. My God, never like that. 145 00:10:08,081 --> 00:10:11,839 And for this, you blame the promoter. He wasn't just the promoter. He controlled 146 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:12,890 Larry's career. 147 00:10:12,891 --> 00:10:16,159 He was the person who was supposed to be looking out for him, but he set him up 148 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,780 to be mauled to make Hector Casales look good. 149 00:10:18,781 --> 00:10:22,919 Now, the defendant never concealed the fact that he represented Hector Casales 150 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,859 as well as your husband, did he? No, he never concealed that. He just concealed 151 00:10:26,860 --> 00:10:28,780 the fact that he was sacrificing Larry. 152 00:10:29,180 --> 00:10:30,260 Objection sustained. 153 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,859 And it is also true, Mrs. Edwards, that your husband doesn't want you to bring 154 00:10:34,860 --> 00:10:35,910 this lawsuit. 155 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,700 No, he doesn't. Then why are you? Because he can't work. 156 00:10:42,020 --> 00:10:43,100 Because we're broke. 157 00:10:44,900 --> 00:10:47,340 Because I have three children that need to eat. 158 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:52,899 And because I just don't know what else I can do. Your husband can't find other 159 00:10:52,900 --> 00:10:56,720 work besides boxing? He got a job selling plants at a greenhouse. 160 00:10:58,100 --> 00:11:01,260 And they fired him because they said he kept getting confused. 161 00:11:02,060 --> 00:11:06,380 Last week, he went to the grocery store to get some milk. He forgot why he went, 162 00:11:06,460 --> 00:11:11,120 and when he went to call me, he couldn't remember our phone number. 163 00:11:12,700 --> 00:11:13,860 I'm sorry, baby. 164 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,020 I am so sorry to embarrass you like this. 165 00:11:18,180 --> 00:11:19,230 Thank you, ma 'am. 166 00:11:20,300 --> 00:11:21,350 That's all I have. 167 00:11:24,599 --> 00:11:29,360 Your husband fought 42 previous fights and was knocked out seven other times, 168 00:11:29,460 --> 00:11:32,470 correct? Yes, but this fight was... Yes is all I need, thank you. 169 00:11:32,471 --> 00:11:36,719 And as a professional boxer, ma 'am, your husband certainly knew the physical 170 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,059 risks of stepping inside that ring, didn't he? We never thought that it 171 00:11:40,060 --> 00:11:42,960 so lopsided. Your husband knocked out 18 people. 172 00:11:43,560 --> 00:11:49,079 He himself was knocked out seven times. That means 25 of 42 bouts were lopsided 173 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:53,179 enough for one fighter to end up semi -conflict. This fight was a mismatch. 174 00:11:53,180 --> 00:11:56,619 you and your husband knew that Hector Casales was a highly ranked contender 175 00:11:56,620 --> 00:12:00,079 being groomed for the heavyweight championship. You told us Larry had a 176 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,299 Isn't it true, ma 'am? Your husband took this fight because it was being 177 00:12:03,300 --> 00:12:05,140 broadcast on national television? 178 00:12:05,141 --> 00:12:09,179 Because it was the biggest professional opportunity of his career, and that if 179 00:12:09,180 --> 00:12:12,979 he'd won, he would have been in line for a championship bout himself, maybe down 180 00:12:12,980 --> 00:12:16,239 the road. He tricked us into thinking all of this. Where's the trick? 181 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,080 This is boxing, Mrs. Edwards. 182 00:12:18,560 --> 00:12:21,320 The object is to knock the opponent unconscious. 183 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,159 The winner gets a parade, the loser usually gets hospitalized.

You kill somebody 226 00:14:38,580 --> 00:14:40,180 else, you get his chip. 227 00:14:40,181 --> 00:14:41,379 Any questions? 228 00:14:41,380 --> 00:14:44,039 Oh, yeah.

Oh. 236 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,000 For God's sake! 237 00:15:04,340 --> 00:15:05,860 You're in play. You're dead. 238 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:07,210 What? 239 00:15:07,380 --> 00:15:10,800 That's an official hit. Player one, you're out. You get his chip. 240 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:16,259 The scientific term would be dementia pugilistica, but that's just a fancy way 241 00:15:16,260 --> 00:15:17,199 of saying punch drunk. 242 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,640 Were you able to ascertain the cause of this dementia, Dr. Harris? 243 00:15:20,641 --> 00:15:24,239 In my opinion, it was caused by the repeated blows to the head in the 244 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,399 fight. At this time, Judge, I would like to play the tape. Defense renews its 245 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:32,010 objection to the tape, Your Honor. Defense renews its ruling overruled. 246 00:15:32,230 --> 00:15:33,280 Play it. 247 00:16:07,691 --> 00:16:15,639 What actually happens when punches like that hit the head? In simple terms, the 248 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:19,500 blow accelerates the skull through the air while the brain lags behind. 249 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,270 Then when the head stops moving, the brain crashes into the wall of the 250 00:16:23,271 --> 00:16:27,359 Then it reverberates back against the other side. And this can cause damage to 251 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:27,979 the brain? 252 00:16:27,980 --> 00:16:28,959 Oh, absolutely. 253 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,759 It ends up stretching and ultimately tearing both the nerves and the tissues 254 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:35,879 inside the brain. And, Doctor, based on your examination of Larry Edwards, could 255 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,619 you tell us what lies ahead for him? Well, we can't be completely sure, but 256 00:16:39,620 --> 00:16:43,499 likelihood is that he will become unable to speak. Within 15 to 20 years, he 257 00:16:43,500 --> 00:16:47,599 will become physically dysfunctional, and he will need constant medical and 258 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:48,319 nursing care. 259 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:49,840 All because of a boxing match. 260 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:51,560 All because of a boxing match. 261 00:16:51,561 --> 00:16:52,679 Thank you, sir. 262 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:53,699 Your witness. 263 00:16:53,700 --> 00:16:54,750 My witness. 264 00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:01,680 Larry Edwards has taken at least 10 ,000 punches in his boxing lifetime. 265 00:17:02,540 --> 00:17:07,279 And you pin his dementia down to the eight or nine we just saw in that tape. 266 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,950 annual neurological exam given to him before that fight showed no brain 267 00:17:11,060 --> 00:17:12,620 Would that test be conclusive? 268 00:17:12,900 --> 00:17:16,880 No, but... And you yourself didn't examine this man prior to the Catholic 269 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:23,039 did you? No, I didn't. And in fact, sir, punch -drunk syndrome can result from 270 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:26,119 accumulated trauma suffered over a career of boxing, true? 271 00:17:26,120 --> 00:17:29,339 Even the winners could be affected this way, right? 272 00:17:29,340 --> 00:17:33,439 Joe Lewis suffered from pugilistica dementia, didn't he, sir? I never 273 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,479 Joe Lewis. Every boxer is at risk to this affliction, right? Yes, now that's 274 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:41,399 certainly true. You personally think the sport of boxing should be banned? The 275 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,659 American Medical Association believes it should be outlawed. And you agree with 276 00:17:44,660 --> 00:17:47,310 the AMA, don't you? Boxing should be banned, right? 277 00:17:47,340 --> 00:17:49,080 Yes, it should be. Thanks, Dr. Harris. 278 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:50,450 Nothing further. 279 00:17:52,530 --> 00:17:56,369 I'd like you to meet Miss Abigail Perkins. Miss Perkins is an attorney 280 00:17:56,370 --> 00:18:00,330 firm here in Los Angeles, McKenzie, Brackman, Chaney, Cusack, and Becker. 281 00:18:00,950 --> 00:18:05,169 Two years ago, Miss Perkins was attacked by a deranged client who had a lead 282 00:18:05,170 --> 00:18:11,329 pipe. You defended yourself using a handgun. You shot the guy, and you 283 00:18:11,330 --> 00:18:12,380 him. 284 00:18:13,250 --> 00:18:17,329 It should be said, however, that you did not have a carry permit, did you, Miss 285 00:18:17,330 --> 00:18:19,640 Perkins? No, they are impossible to get. 286 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:24,059 Responsible citizens are not allowed to carry firearms, which means that if I 287 00:18:24,060 --> 00:18:27,639 had been attacked on the street instead of in my office, I would probably be 288 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,479 dead. I thought she wasn't going to do that. Something must have changed her 289 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,899 mind. 8 ,000 people in this country are killed every year with a handgun. Many 290 00:18:33,900 --> 00:18:37,999 of them are children shot accidentally. That's appalling. So is selling guns to 291 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,070 people with criminal records or a history of mental illness. 292 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:46,059 I support gun registration, waiting periods, and background checks. But to 293 00:18:46,060 --> 00:18:49,139 that no one... Passing out pistols is contemptible. I'll tell you what's 294 00:18:49,140 --> 00:18:53,059 contemptible. Our government cannot stop the drug wars. Our government cannot 295 00:18:53,060 --> 00:18:56,999 stop rising crime. Our government cannot stop the guns from getting to the 296 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,490 gangs. And they want to pass laws to stop them from getting to you and me. 297 00:19:01,060 --> 00:19:06,019 So you just arm everybody and become a society of violence? We already are a 298 00:19:06,020 --> 00:19:09,979 society of violence. All I'm saying is it's time to let the good people fight 299 00:19:09,980 --> 00:19:11,030 back. 300 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,570 Lawyers who kill. And we'll be back in just a moment. 301 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:16,890 You mind? 302 00:19:16,891 --> 00:19:18,959 Mm -hmm. Can I speak to you for a second? 303 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:20,010 Yeah, sure. 304 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,860 I'm really not sure how to say this. 305 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:26,370 It's about Grace. 306 00:19:26,371 --> 00:19:27,379 What about her? 307 00:19:27,380 --> 00:19:32,860 Well, I think that we... I think there could be something happening between us. 308 00:19:36,980 --> 00:19:38,780 Look, we didn't mean for it to happen. 309 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,320 Just kind of snuck up on us. 310 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:48,279 What I'm trying to say is, would it bother you if Grace and I started seeing 311 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:49,330 each other? 312 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:54,290 Yes. 313 00:19:55,460 --> 00:19:56,940 Yes, it would bother me. 314 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,450 You've been training Larry Edwards for how long, sir? 315 00:20:03,700 --> 00:20:04,750 Almost seven years. 316 00:20:04,980 --> 00:20:06,860 But he's not your employer. 317 00:20:07,620 --> 00:20:09,260 No, I work for Mr. Dune. 318 00:20:09,740 --> 00:20:14,139 Larry is one of the fighters assigned to me. Now, Mr. Lott, could you tell us 319 00:20:14,140 --> 00:20:17,699 what your reaction was when you learned that Larry was scheduled to fight Hector 320 00:20:17,700 --> 00:20:20,380 Casales? I thought it was totally nuts. 321 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,280 I mean, Hector's a rank contender. 322 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:25,840 He's in a totally different class. 323 00:20:26,340 --> 00:20:27,420 Did you tell this to Mr. 324 00:20:27,660 --> 00:20:32,420 Doom? I did, and he told me to keep my mouth shut and get Larry ready to fight. 325 00:20:32,700 --> 00:20:34,990 Did you express your reservations to Larry? 326 00:20:34,991 --> 00:20:39,159 Yeah, but, you know, every fighter, they always see the other guy lying on the 327 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,079 mat. You know, they never see themselves. 328 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:42,920 Yeah, so the fight went forward. 329 00:20:43,180 --> 00:20:45,400 Yeah, but not with me, then, because I quit. 330 00:20:46,060 --> 00:20:47,110 Why'd you quit, sir? 331 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,210 Because I couldn't close my eyes to what was happening. 332 00:20:50,211 --> 00:20:51,239 I mean, 333 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:55,179 don't get me wrong, these things happen all the time, you know, the promoters 334 00:20:55,180 --> 00:20:56,580 staging mismatches. 335 00:20:56,581 --> 00:20:59,199 Because of the public, you know, they like to see knockouts. 336 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:04,420 But this, he had no chance but to get hurt, and that's what I told him to do. 337 00:21:04,421 --> 00:21:08,939 I said, you'd better get yourself another trainer, because I quit. 338 00:21:08,940 --> 00:21:09,990 Thank you, sir. 339 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:11,850 Nothing further. 340 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,080 Larry Edwards have knockout power, Mr. Lott? 341 00:21:16,081 --> 00:21:17,259 Oh, yes. 342 00:21:17,260 --> 00:21:21,319 And if he had ever connected, would it have been possible for him to knock out 343 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:22,370 Hector Casales? 344 00:21:23,060 --> 00:21:24,680 Yeah, it would be possible, sure. 345 00:21:24,940 --> 00:21:26,960 But thank you, Mr. Lott. That's all. 346 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:34,370 It's this way. 347 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:36,900 No, this way. 348 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,000 Captain, I think I see somebody. 349 00:21:42,420 --> 00:21:44,560 They spotted us, damn it.

Let's move up. 352 00:21:54,900 --> 00:21:56,700 Hold on. Cease fire. 353 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,570 Now look, you've got four people. We've got four. 354 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:00,940 There are no surprises. 355 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,000 If you retreat at once, we'll hold fire. 356 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:05,690 And you'll all live. 357 00:22:05,940 --> 00:22:07,000 Do we have a deal? 358 00:22:07,300 --> 00:22:08,350 Here's your deal. 359 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,760 Let's take him. This is ridiculous. 360 00:22:11,020 --> 00:22:13,850 How did I get myself into this? You have to aim, Jonathan. 361 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,460 You can't just shoot at the sky. 362 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,040 Stuart! Get back here! 363 00:22:18,041 --> 00:22:19,659 They can't shoot straight. 364 00:22:19,660 --> 00:22:21,260 One, two, three. 365 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:23,090 Shoot! 366 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,280 Where the hell did you come from? 367 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:30,690 You're all dead. 368 00:22:32,120 --> 00:22:33,940 The little pudgeball got me. 369 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:35,210 Kill chips, please. 370 00:22:54,100 --> 00:22:57,060 And Larry Edwards wanted it, did he not? 371 00:22:57,660 --> 00:22:58,710 Wanted it. 372 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,300 This was the opportunity he begged me for. 373 00:23:01,301 --> 00:23:04,979 He said he wanted to get in the ring with a named fighter so he could make 374 00:23:04,980 --> 00:23:06,030 mark. Mrs. 375 00:23:06,031 --> 00:23:09,419 Edwards claims that you knew her husband would be savagely beaten when you 376 00:23:09,420 --> 00:23:10,500 scheduled that fight. 377 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:15,000 Look, first of all, I was Larry Edwards' exclusive promoter. 378 00:23:15,001 --> 00:23:18,919 That meant I had a financial stake in the man. So I certainly wasn't going to 379 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,300 anything to ruin his career. 380 00:23:20,580 --> 00:23:24,780 Second, you got to understand something. Anything can happen in a boxing match. 381 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,050 Anything. Look at Buster Douglas. 382 00:23:27,290 --> 00:23:31,530 Man was a mismatched, no -name bum up until the time he knocked out Mike 383 00:23:31,531 --> 00:23:36,069 Cassius Clay, they say, had no business even being in the same ring with Sonny 384 00:23:36,070 --> 00:23:41,750 Liston. Look at George Foreman. The man's 40, he's fat, candidate for a 385 00:23:41,950 --> 00:23:44,180 yet he's still in there knocking people out. 386 00:23:44,190 --> 00:23:47,770 Did you think Larry Edwards might beat Hector Casales? The truth? 387 00:23:49,010 --> 00:23:51,370 No. But did he have a chance? 388 00:23:52,010 --> 00:23:55,930 Absolutely. And Laird was grateful to me that I gave him that chance. 389 00:23:56,250 --> 00:23:57,300 Thank you, Mr. Dune. 390 00:23:57,710 --> 00:23:58,760 Nothing further. 391 00:24:02,410 --> 00:24:04,930 You also control Hector Casales, don't you? 392 00:24:05,230 --> 00:24:09,689 That's correct. In fact, Hector Casales is your meal ticket, isn't he? He's a 393 00:24:09,690 --> 00:24:10,740 promising fighter. 394 00:24:11,090 --> 00:24:13,210 But I take care of all of my clients. Yeah. 395 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,160 You really took care of Larry. 396 00:24:15,161 --> 00:24:19,159 You sent him into battle with the fourth ranked heavyweight contender in the 397 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:23,519 world. Nobody held a gun to his head. But you advised him. You told him this 398 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:28,260 would be best for him. That's right. And I believe that. Don't lie to this jury. 399 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:29,810 Objection. Counsel. 400 00:24:29,860 --> 00:24:34,499 According to Walter McDonough, executive producer of Fight Time on Prime Sports 401 00:24:34,500 --> 00:24:39,620 Cable, he told you that before he would close the cable deal on Hector Casales, 402 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,180 he had to be sold on the guy's power. 403 00:24:42,940 --> 00:24:46,340 Three days after that, you set up this match with Larry Edwards. 404 00:24:46,780 --> 00:24:51,560 So? So Larry Edwards was the tomato can you knew Casales would knock out. 405 00:24:51,820 --> 00:24:53,860 Probably in spectacular fashion. 406 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:59,080 Totally untrue. Larry Edwards put his life and his career in your hands, Mr. 407 00:24:59,340 --> 00:25:00,390 Dune. 408 00:25:00,700 --> 00:25:05,059 And you sold him out for a cable deal. He wanted this fight just as much as I 409 00:25:05,060 --> 00:25:06,110 did. Mr. Dune. 410 00:25:07,020 --> 00:25:12,320 Your gross take on the Casales cable deal was $1 .3 million. 411 00:25:12,660 --> 00:25:16,940 I work hard for my money. You paid Larry Edwards $8 ,000 for that fight. 412 00:25:17,140 --> 00:25:21,020 That's right. And that's more than he ever made before. But you got rich. 413 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,660 And he got a lifelong disability. 414 00:25:24,220 --> 00:25:30,660 Look, Larry knew the risks, okay? The man knew all of the hazards. 415 00:25:31,020 --> 00:25:32,520 No, he didn't, Mr. Dune. 416 00:25:33,360 --> 00:25:36,120 Larry never knew that one of the hazards was you. 417 00:25:36,860 --> 00:25:40,560 Objection! Withdrawn. I have nothing further for this citizen. 418 00:25:41,020 --> 00:25:42,320 You can step down, sir. 419 00:25:42,540 --> 00:25:46,320 Your Honor, the defense would like to call as its last witness Mr. 420 00:25:46,540 --> 00:25:47,590 Larry Edwards. 421 00:25:48,340 --> 00:25:51,160 We're adjourned. We'll see Mr. Edwards later this day. 422 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,999 Get me down. What was your idea to go on this trip? For God's sake, let me lie 423 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,070 down. All right, look, I'm going to put you down up by the shack. 424 00:26:02,071 --> 00:26:03,479 Okay, here, lie down, lie down. 425 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,320 Hey, anybody there? 426 00:26:05,900 --> 00:26:06,950 A little help? 427 00:26:06,951 --> 00:26:10,799 Whoa, hold it, hold it, hold it. Don't shoot. We give up. 428 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:11,850 I need some help. 429 00:26:11,940 --> 00:26:13,500 I think I got a broken ankle here. 430 00:26:13,860 --> 00:26:16,480 I know a little first aid. Can't you find a referee? 431 00:26:17,060 --> 00:26:18,680 No, I think he's going to pass out. 432 00:26:49,221 --> 00:26:54,689 For the record, I think it's completely unprofessional. 433 00:26:54,690 --> 00:26:55,740 I beg your pardon? 434 00:26:56,450 --> 00:26:57,500 You and Victor. 435 00:26:57,790 --> 00:26:59,900 It's bad for the firm, it's bad for morale. 436 00:27:00,070 --> 00:27:05,310 If Victor and I were seeing each other, what business is it of yours? 437 00:27:06,690 --> 00:27:08,310 Well, probably none. 438 00:27:09,870 --> 00:27:14,709 But you are a partner, and he is still an associate, at least for the time 439 00:27:14,710 --> 00:27:18,689 being, and you know how dangerous that can be. That's the objection, that I'm a 440 00:27:18,690 --> 00:27:20,570 partner and he is an associate. 441 00:27:20,910 --> 00:27:21,960 All right. 442 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,760 He's a friend, and you are my ex -lover. How's that? 443 00:27:26,740 --> 00:27:28,000 At least it's honest. 444 00:27:28,700 --> 00:27:32,600 Listen, Michael, this isn't something we're trying to rub your face in. 445 00:27:32,820 --> 00:27:37,679 And I certainly appreciate that you're not comfortable with it. But what you 446 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,940 have to appreciate is that it really isn't any of your business. 447 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,860 He asked me if I would mind, and I said yes. 448 00:27:46,220 --> 00:27:48,330 I guess that doesn't make any difference. 449 00:27:59,660 --> 00:28:01,580 I understand you picked up a new client. 450 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,460 Yeah, California Chapter, the NRA. 451 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:05,210 Uh -huh. 452 00:28:05,900 --> 00:28:06,950 You have a problem? 453 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:09,640 You really want to know? 454 00:28:09,641 --> 00:28:13,739 I thought you were self -serving on that show and totally irresponsible. 455 00:28:13,740 --> 00:28:14,779 It made me sick. 456 00:28:14,780 --> 00:28:17,519 Thanks for your support, Ann. Hey, friends are supposed to be honest with 457 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,619 another, right? I'm giving you my honest opinion. 458 00:28:19,620 --> 00:28:20,379 That's right. 459 00:28:20,380 --> 00:28:24,159 Friends are supposed to be honest. Like, if you knew that a friend was getting 460 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,750 screwed out of a partnership, you'd level with her. 461 00:28:26,751 --> 00:28:30,359 You hypocrite. I don't make partner because my profile's too low. I go on 462 00:28:30,360 --> 00:28:33,859 television. I get a little publicity. And suddenly I'm self -serving and 463 00:28:33,860 --> 00:28:37,339 irresponsible. I wanted to tell you, Abby, but... But what? What, your 464 00:28:37,340 --> 00:28:40,759 obligation to the partner took precedence over our friendship? I get it 465 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:42,540 Ann. How dare you judge me? 466 00:29:02,860 --> 00:29:04,480 I guess we should just go to sleep. 467 00:29:05,540 --> 00:29:06,800 It's only seven o 'clock. 468 00:29:07,620 --> 00:29:08,670 What else do we do? 469 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:12,050 This is crazy. 470 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,920 I don't care what he said. I'm lighting the fire. 471 00:29:15,220 --> 00:29:16,270 You won't like it. 472 00:29:25,860 --> 00:29:27,300 You're very lucky, Jonathan. 473 00:29:27,700 --> 00:29:29,160 Why? Because you have youth. 474 00:29:29,700 --> 00:29:31,800 Choices. I'm 40 years old. 475 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:37,079 I'm here in the woods, shivering all night, because I can't say no to a 476 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,979 who makes designer tampons and sells them to the jingle uptight and out of 477 00:29:40,980 --> 00:29:44,120 sight. I'm intimidated by clients. I'm afraid of my ex -wife. 478 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:49,139 My teenage son ignores me. And I'm too afraid to light a fire because of a five 479 00:29:49,140 --> 00:29:51,790 -foot, six -inch tax attorney with a Hitler complex. 480 00:29:52,220 --> 00:29:53,720 Don't end up like me, Jonathan. 481 00:29:54,180 --> 00:29:55,320 You still have choices. 482 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,460 Douglas, you still have choices. 483 00:29:58,071 --> 00:29:59,959 You're right. 484 00:29:59,960 --> 00:30:01,010 You can light a fire. 485 00:30:05,431 --> 00:30:09,159 You want us all to be killed in their sleep? 486 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:10,740 Painted, not killed, Stuart. 487 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,580 Worst case scenario, we get painted in our sleep. 488 00:30:13,860 --> 00:30:15,360 And you think that's nothing? 489 00:30:15,540 --> 00:30:16,700 Tell that to the copers. 490 00:30:18,980 --> 00:30:20,540 You killed four more guys? 491 00:30:21,980 --> 00:30:23,300 I'm going back out on recon. 492 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:25,340 Jonathan, get two hours sleep. 493 00:30:25,341 --> 00:30:28,719 Douglas, you stand guard.

No. He thought if I caught 499 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:59,279 I maybe could have. And you chose to take this fight knowing the likelihood 500 00:30:59,280 --> 00:30:59,939 you would lose. 501 00:30:59,940 --> 00:31:01,440 Maybe I shouldn't have done it. 502 00:31:02,660 --> 00:31:03,710 I don't know. 503 00:31:03,780 --> 00:31:06,580 Next time, maybe no. Next time? 504 00:31:07,620 --> 00:31:09,260 Do you plan to fight again? 505 00:31:09,261 --> 00:31:10,469 Mr. Edwards? 506 00:31:10,470 --> 00:31:11,520 Maybe. 507 00:31:12,170 --> 00:31:13,220 I don't know. 508 00:31:13,310 --> 00:31:14,590 I can still fight. 509 00:31:14,830 --> 00:31:17,850 The doctors have testified you've suffered brain damage. 510 00:31:18,070 --> 00:31:20,650 My head's a little fuzzy and I forget things. 511 00:31:21,910 --> 00:31:23,210 But I can still move. 512 00:31:23,670 --> 00:31:24,930 I can still hit. 513 00:31:25,170 --> 00:31:28,130 You don't have to be a scientist or nothing to box. 514 00:31:28,550 --> 00:31:30,890 I appreciate your candor, Mr. Edwards. 515 00:31:31,110 --> 00:31:33,990 Now, your wife is blaming Mr. 516 00:31:34,210 --> 00:31:36,450 Dune for all of this.

Do it. 557 00:33:55,290 --> 00:33:56,590 I hope he got captured. 558 00:33:57,170 --> 00:33:59,210 He's probably eating bugs for breakfast. 559 00:34:00,590 --> 00:34:03,090 Freeze! Make one move, you get it in the ass. 560 00:34:03,091 --> 00:34:04,509 Okay, okay. 561 00:34:04,510 --> 00:34:05,650 Drop your guns. Now! 562 00:34:06,210 --> 00:34:09,290 Fine.

I believe I'll take your chip. I gotta sit. 566 00:34:19,350 --> 00:34:20,409 Wait a minute. 567 00:34:21,469 --> 00:34:22,519 You're a cobra. 568 00:34:22,530 --> 00:34:24,330 So what?

No, no, it's not all 572 00:34:32,790 --> 00:34:34,850 right. You ruined the game. Hey, hey! 573 00:34:34,851 --> 00:34:38,009 Let's do it. Come on, Stuart. Maybe you'll think better next time. Hey, 574 00:34:38,010 --> 00:34:41,149 Hey! Hey! Stop it! Maybe you'll remember next time. Stop it!

Damn right I did. Now give me your chip. 578 00:34:52,510 --> 00:34:53,950 Unbelievable. Unbelievable. 579 00:34:55,340 --> 00:34:57,340 Boxing is a dirty business. 580 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:04,419 The promoter controls the managers so he can represent both fighters in the same 581 00:35:04,420 --> 00:35:09,679 bout. You never know who's pimping for who. The regulations stink, and it's 582 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:13,779 possible for club fighters with lousy credentials to be thrown in with 583 00:35:13,780 --> 00:35:15,540 championship caliber fighters. 584 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,140 Now, that is what happened here, ladies and gentlemen. 585 00:35:19,500 --> 00:35:20,680 Larry Edwards. 586 00:35:21,470 --> 00:35:28,429 was put in that ring solely because the defendant knew. He knew that he would be 587 00:35:28,430 --> 00:35:34,589 quickly destroyed because he would make Hector Casales look good because he 588 00:35:34,590 --> 00:35:38,010 would help Mitchell Doon close that cable deal. 589 00:35:38,750 --> 00:35:42,770 Now, I don't sit here pretending to be shocked. 590 00:35:43,090 --> 00:35:45,490 Like I said, the fight game is dirt. 591 00:35:46,010 --> 00:35:50,089 And it's usually more about promoting entertainment vehicles and raising 592 00:35:50,090 --> 00:35:51,890 revenues than it is sport. 593 00:35:52,110 --> 00:35:55,410 And bums are thrown in with contenders all the time. 594 00:35:56,270 --> 00:36:02,830 But the problem here is, it was Larry Edwards' own guy that sold them out. 595 00:36:03,030 --> 00:36:09,110 See, Mitchell Doon's job was to protect them, to advise them, 596 00:36:09,230 --> 00:36:13,250 and he sacrificed them. There was a trust here. 597 00:36:13,630 --> 00:36:20,449 And for $1 .3 million, Mitchell Doon chose to betray that 598 00:36:20,450 --> 00:36:21,500 trust. 599 00:36:21,970 --> 00:36:27,470 And because of that, Larry Edwards is brain damaged. 600 00:36:28,370 --> 00:36:34,990 Because of that, one day, Larry Edwards will be unable to speak. 601 00:36:35,190 --> 00:36:37,950 He will need a nurse to help him go to the bathroom. 602 00:36:38,330 --> 00:36:40,170 For Larry Edwards... 603 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:46,060 For his wife and kids, please, do something to even things up. 604 00:36:57,020 --> 00:37:02,919 Boxing is a sport where the object is to bash the opponent's head until he loses 605 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:03,970 consciousness. 606 00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:06,180 That's what boxing is. 607 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:10,800 We could mandate headgear. We could mandate bigger, softer gloves. 608 00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:16,079 We could do a lot of things to make it safer. We choose not to because the 609 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:21,619 essence of boxing is blood and eyes swelled up to where you can't see and 610 00:37:21,620 --> 00:37:23,660 knockouts and pain. 611 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:25,740 Mitchell Doon knows that. 612 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,200 Larry Edwards knows that. 613 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:35,339 Knowing that, Larry Edwards decided to become a professional and assume those 614 00:37:35,340 --> 00:37:41,579 risks. And like any pro, the thing he wanted most from his promoter was a shot 615 00:37:41,580 --> 00:37:42,630 at the title. 616 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:45,300 Get me in there with the big boys. 617 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:50,979 Well, Mitchell Dune got him in there with Hector Casales, an opportunity 618 00:37:50,980 --> 00:37:53,980 Edwards was grateful for. And he lost. 619 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,880 He got hurt, for which we're all very sorry. 620 00:37:57,980 --> 00:38:04,419 But please, if we start suing promoters every time a boxer suffers a vicious 621 00:38:04,420 --> 00:38:09,840 knockout, we'd be holding them liable for giving us exactly what we pay to 622 00:38:10,220 --> 00:38:11,900 Admit that, ladies and gentlemen. 623 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,420 Larry Edwards isn't blaming Mitchell Dune. 624 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:17,130 How can you? 625 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:42,660 I have to talk to you. Sure. Who the hell do you think you are? 626 00:38:42,900 --> 00:38:44,740 What? We are not sleeping together. 627 00:38:45,060 --> 00:38:47,220 We don't even have a relationship. 628 00:38:47,221 --> 00:38:51,139 I didn't even say I'd go out with you. Why are we talking about this now? 629 00:38:51,140 --> 00:38:53,490 Because you went to Michael and made it public. 630 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:54,570 Damn you! 631 00:38:54,720 --> 00:38:58,030 Before we did anything, you had to go and get his stamp of approval. 632 00:38:58,031 --> 00:39:01,939 Approval? Look, I don't know what he told you. Victor, if something is 633 00:39:01,940 --> 00:39:03,260 here, it is between us. 634 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,310 You... And me. It has nothing to do with Michael. Michael still loves you. 635 00:39:07,930 --> 00:39:10,820 That doesn't give him the right to decide who I can be with. 636 00:39:11,370 --> 00:39:12,420 Or you, either. 637 00:39:12,650 --> 00:39:15,890 I make up my own mind, and I don't need anybody's permission. 638 00:39:16,250 --> 00:39:18,350 You're right. I didn't think... I don't know. 639 00:39:18,690 --> 00:39:20,980 Maybe we should just forget this whole thing. 640 00:39:51,810 --> 00:39:55,290 Nothing. Just... Nothing. 641 00:39:56,530 --> 00:39:58,030 Heard you were a big hero today. 642 00:39:58,450 --> 00:39:59,500 21 kills. 643 00:39:59,630 --> 00:40:00,710 Yeah, second place. 644 00:40:01,550 --> 00:40:04,800 I could have won, but Douglas fragged me. He says you had it coming. 645 00:40:05,130 --> 00:40:06,180 I did. 646 00:40:08,450 --> 00:40:11,530 I think I was acting out a little stuff out there. 647 00:40:12,950 --> 00:40:14,350 Tell me about acting out. 648 00:40:15,230 --> 00:40:17,650 I bit Abby's head off for going on Donahue. 649 00:40:18,250 --> 00:40:19,930 I just turned into the Dragon Lady. 650 00:40:22,380 --> 00:40:25,690 You know, I was thinking about the whole time I was out in the woods. 651 00:40:26,140 --> 00:40:30,259 What?
