We're letting you go.

-Why?
-You're fat.

So if I was thin,I.
I'd still have my job?

If you were thin,I'd probably
try and have sex with you.

Wait,no,whoa,whoa,whoa.

I've been damaged. We'll
see you all in court.

She's not coming back
to a firm of fat bigots.

Are you this hostile in bed?

Keep talking,Mr. Crane. All I
hear is ca-ching,ca-ching,ca-ching.

You're fat.

Off you go now. Take
the man-eater with you.

My name is leigh swift.

And I am here today in hopes
of securing legal counsel.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Would you like to get a drink with me?

jerry,come on.

You need to keep reminding
yourself that this is a good thing.

No,it's not.

Jerry.

Please don't use my name.

When you say my name,it reminds me
who I am,which is jerry espenson,

which is not a good thing to
be at all in this situation.

Okay,first,stop pacing. It's driving me.

stay!

you've had two wonderful dates.

and we all know what's supposed to happen on the
third date after two wonderful dates,don't we?

You've really never kissed a wan?

Not a real one.

Well,it's actually quite simple.

You just move your head towards
hers until your lips touch.

Well,what about the tongue business?
What am I supposed to do about that?

you just sort of.

slip it in and,you
know,move it around a little.

Oh,well. Shouldn't you
just write the book?

Jerry,the thing about a first kiss,

the combination of the psychological
and physical stimuli can be overwhelming.

It's best to separate the two.

That would be helpful if I
had any idea what you said.

Look.

you're standing at the
door with your date.

-Lorraine.
-alan,please.

You look into her eyes,you
hold each other's gaze.

You're essentially kissing now.

Not physically,but you're both saying with eye contact
how much you long for the taste of each other's lips.

You moisten your own lips
gently with your tongue.

A simple kiss now almost seems like
nothing,and yet,it's everything.

Because there is nothing.

nothing. so gentle as that first kiss.

Jerry?

Jerry left us.

It's only a kiss,man.

It's not just a kiss.

That's the thing about
lorraine,it's never just a kiss.

She. I swear,she actually
makes my tongue change color.

Let see.

It's normal color.

Not the tip.

It's bluish.

It's the normal color.

It's a bit puffy,though.

Is it swollen? It's a bit puffy.

Oh,sweet.

It's the fat bigot and his
friend Mr. Puffy tongue.

I don't believe we've officially met.

$1 million,nothing structured.

As I understand it,your client was
offered her job back within an hour.

Oh,gee. You're right. You got me there.

$1 million.

I'm alan shore.

$1 million.

How about instead,I bite you on the
inner thigh? Does that work for you?

If only I'd really said that,but
you,of course,misheard me.

Just as your client misheard denny.

Is that your defense?

He didn't really fire her for being fat?

Miss. I'm sure you have a
name,but I'm not much interested.

I've taken an immediate dislike to
you. I'm sure you get that a lot.

Where I was once prepared
to be generous,now I'm not.

You've made the strategic
mistake of pissing me off.

You scare me.

See me shudder?

Take your clothes off.
I'll make you shudder.

That I did say.

your hostility is just a barely
concealed form of foreplay.

I knew it. You're a
horny,insatiable little slut.

I could smell it the
second you walked in.

Well,I'm happy to oblige.

let's you and i make like rabbits.

Boston
Legal Season 4 Episode 7

I realize this is
unbelievably late notice.

when does your trial start?

Today,actually.

Look,I-I just had a knockdown
blowout with my lawyer.

Now he's out,and I-I'm desperate.

Let's back up. Uh,what
is yo trial about?

I'm being charged with murder.

Mm,something simple then.

Look,I'm a police officer.

Well,I was. They fired me.

I shot an unarmed
man,mistaking him for a suspt.

I thought he had a gun.

Turned out to be a soda
can the light caught funny.

Anyway,it was a mistake.

But the D.A.'S saying otherwise.

The thing is,they took
an M.R.I. Of my brain.

Why?

The man I shot was
african-american,and,uh,

the district attorney's saying
the shooting's racially motivated.

Look,I had a couple of incidents
at work where I had to go get,

you know,sensitivity training
and so forth,but I'm not a racist.

Wait.

So they took a scan of your brain to see
if the shooting was racially motivated?

Yeah,they called it a functional M.R.I.

I've read that they can evidently detect
a predisposition toward racial bias.

And did it,with you?

Yes.

They plan to use it as evidence to
convict me of second-degree murder.

Well,you were worse than me.

I just.

between my agitation over lorraine
and this emma's repugnance.

I think she was prepared to he sex,though.
I could've been right on the money there.

So now what happens?

Well,she's noticed your deposition. After
that,I'll bring our motion to dismiss.

I've been thinking a lot
abt what you said,denny.

Oh,I'm glad to hear that.

What'd I say?

You said that maybe
lorraine is the one for me.

Maybe that's why I can't
shake the neck or the kiss.

Maybe i just can't shake her.

Maybe lorraine's it.

I said that?

What's the big deal,jerry?

-Have you ever kissed a girl?
-Yes.

As you or clevant?

I kissed claire as me.

-I don't believe you.
-I did.

Hello.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Clarence,I'm ashameto admit
I've been googling myself again.

It happens when shirley's out of town.

And I've been on youtube again.

Do you know what's playing now?

that was not. oh,a minister?

A preacher?

Are you a man dressed as a woman.

he stole my parking place.

I was getting ready to back in,then
he whooshed in with his sports car,

then he called me names and.

I just lost it.

you weirdo. you pervert.

Oh,you know what else you can do?

You can kiss my ass.
That's what you can do.

Take a look at this here.

Oh! Oh,his image,Mr. Minister.

Kiss it! His image!

Take a good kiss of that,Mr. Minister!

Okay,several issues.

First,you're terrorizing clergy.

That's something we frown on.

Second,you likened your
buttocks to god's image.

very politically incorrect
even in a blue state.

And you managed to do so on the world wide
web as an employee of crane,poole & schmidt,

which means that your exposed ass t only
speaks to the almighty's image,but ours.

take that right there.

Take a look at this here.
Oh,his image,Mr. Minister.

I wasn't watching anything.

I expected better from you.

Me?

Your conduct leaves a
little to be desired.

Hello.

Leigh,hello. Leigh,hello.

I was just in the neighborod.

I thought,what the hey?

What a surprise. Hey. Hello.

this is clarence. You remember leigh.

Hello.

Hello.

All set for tonight?

Tonight.

Well,uh,something's come up,actually.

It looks like I have
to work late tonight.

Oh,okay.

-Tomorrow night?
-Yes.

well,this case could be
consuming,this one that just came up.

Maybe we should postpone till the weend.

Oh,okay.

Good-bye.

Good-bye.

What came up? Nothing's come up.

Did I ask you?

You're just afraid
you'll have to kiss her.

Don't be such a buttinskyhead.

You hurt her feelings.

I said I didn't ask you,you.

poop!

all rise.

This court is now in session.

The honorable judge
gloria weldon presiding.

Be seated.

Good morning,your honor.

Whitney rome along with katie lloyd of
crane,poole & schmidt for the defense.

Your motion is denied.

I haven't even told you what it is yet.

You seek to suppress the M.R.I.Scan.

Mr. Bass' previous counsel already
brought such a motion to suppress.

The issue was ruled on.

Your honor,come on.

A brain scan to read his thoughts?

Assuming these things are even accurate.

no.

It reads chemical
responses,not thoughts.

And we already make suspects give
blood,D.N.A.,Handwriting analysis.

those are objective tests.

So is the brain scan.

I'm allowing it. What else?

-We also have a motion for a continuance in.
-denied.

Wait,we just got this.

Too late. Denied. We start today.

your honor.

maybe in the interest of justice,we
should put our conflicts on the table.

Meaning?

Meaning there may be some bad blood
between you and my firm,and it.

Mr. Palmer,I once had a relationship
with a lawyer at crane,poole & schmidt.

-Do you object?
-Not at all.

Well,my client objects.

tell your client the affair
wasn't very memorable.

And if I had to rese myself from every case
where I'd slept with one of the lawyers,

or both,I'd have to take up golf.

I'll give you one hour to get yourself
ready,then I'm bringing in the jury.

Okay.

listen to me,denny,answer only what
you're asked,do not throw in little,uh,

comments or asides,and above all,do
not,do not,do not offer your opinions.

Will you relax,man? It's
me you're talking to.

dear god.

-Alan.
-Lorraine.

I was just leaving.

lorraine.

I was just,uh,thinking
about you earlier.

Really? Tell me.

Well.

you know how,uh,both of us seem
to be so relationship averse?

I was thinking.

maybe you are,uh,right
for a longer-term.

thing.

Funny.

Who told you?

Told me?

That I'm a relationship.

I was planning to tell you.

You're in a relationship.

Yeah,a really wonderful man.

I think you'd like him.

Oh,I'm s.

not sure.

Anyway,I-I-I thought
you'd be relieved.

We've decided to make it exclusive.

So you won't have to worry
about me stalking you anymore.

terrific.

,We had just came out the deli.

And B.J. Went back in because he
forgot his soda on the counter.

I kept walking to the car.

B.J. Is your brother.

Yes.

Then as I got to the car,this
cop car comes screeching up,

and two cops jump out,screaming.

And they had their guns pointed at B.J.

Then what?

They just shot him.

He shot him.

He just kept shooting and shooting.

It was like he unloaded the whole gun.

I'm very sorry for your loss,terrence.

When the police arrived
and leapt from the car,

what did you do,if I may ask?

I just hit the ground.

And did you actually see
your brother get shot,

or did you first hear the
shots and then look up?

Both.

I first heard the shots,and then I
looked up and saw him getting shot.

Thank you.

once again,tightly constructed answers.

There's no room for
opinions,especially yours.

What's wrong?

Nothing's wrong.

You're being surly. I can hear it.

-I am not surly.
-Yes,you are.

-Whatever it is,I.
-nothing's wrong!

That hurt my feelings.

she's involved.

Who?

Lorraine. She has a boyfriend.

I never liked her.

did she say who?

No,and I don't care.

jerry.

Leigh.

Hello. Welcome.

I'm very unsettled.

If you don't want to date me
anymore,please just be honest with me.

I'm 44 years old,I've
heard every excuse there is.

The last one said he got summoned for
astronaut duty and had to rush off for the moon.

I'm sick of dishonest,disingenuous men.

And people wonder how I could
end up with a utility box.

You dishonest man!

hey,lady,I tried to let you down
nicely,and you punish me for it.

What,I should have opted for cruelty?

What do yowant from me?

They even fight weird.

Come on,denny. Let's go.

We were responding to a call that a man matching the
description of the suspect was seen going into the deli.

When we arrived,we saw Mr.
Owens and his brother emerging.

We identified ourselves
as police officers,

drew our weapons and asked
them to get on the ground.

Then what?

Well,I looked at terrence,the
younger brother,over by the car.

Then I heard the shots.

I looked back to see my
partner firing at B.J.

-And yet,you didn't shoot.
-No.

In fact,you said to the,uh,

field investigation division that
you thought the shoot was reckless.

I thought it was a quick shoot.

I never said it was racially motivated.

Officer payne,how long have you
and the defendant been partners?

Three years.

-He's your friend.
-Yes.

Ever have reason to
think that he's a racist?

-No.

Really? You never complained about him?

When we were first deployed
together,I didn't know him.

He made a few comments that upset me.

Like he "only believed
in busing for away games"?

his sense of humor is
sometimes misplaced.

But he's not a racist.

B.J..

The brother who was
mistaken for the suspect.

did he in fact look like that suspect?

We only had a general
description,but yes,he did match it.

And that suspect was reported
as being armed and dangerous.

Yes.

Thank you.

F-first of all,I apologize
for embarrassing the law firm.

It's not like me to lose
my temper like that,and.

I am very sorry.

uh,second,uh.

I sued them.

-Sued who?
-Youtube.

It was wrong for them to
humiliate me like that.

I'll represent myself but.

you don't really have a case.

What they did was wrong.

I can't let it go. I.

clarence,certainly you've heard the saying,any man
who represents himself has a drag queen for a client.

Wait,no. That's not the saying.

Clarence!

let me represent you.

I agree,what they did
was wrong. I'll help you.

You don't have to do that.

I want to,and,son,I'm very good.

all rise.

This court is now in session. The
honorable judge brown presiding.

Be seated.

All right.

Before we begin,some of you may or may not
have noticed that I'm wearing protective heaear.

I sustained a small
wound while gardening.

My doctor advised that I take conservative
precautions until the stitches are removed.

Please pay it no attention.

your honor,I think we
can make this quick.

Mr. Bell is alleging
defamation of character.

The footage depicts what actually happened,and
truth is a complete defense to defamation.

This is silly.

We're also suing under
right to publicity.

The plaintiff is not a celebrity.
We get no value trading his name.

You get value trading
on footage depicting him.

I direct you to massachusetts
law,chapter 214,section 3a.

I'm sorry.

I'm finding it very difficult
to get past the helmet.

I am a superior court jurist,

and I expect to be treated with the
respect that goes with this robe.

I do not sit up here for your amusement.

Even so.

judge,the v-video was aired without a
context,so it does not represent the truth.

I'd like to hear exactly
how he's been defamed.

You can read how in the complaint.

It is a fair request.

Mr. Bell.

you will take the stand after lunch.

The helmet threw me.

And you just thought you had the
right to fire her 'cause she was fat?

And still is.

I thought I had the right to fire
people who jeopardize my health.

How does her weight
jeopardize your health?

According to studies at
harvard. you've heard of harvard?

Obesity can spread like
a contagious disease.

That's not my opinion. That's harvard'S.

But I wasn't too fat for you to hit on?

Oh,no. 'Cause I like chubby sex.
But I never asked you to dinner.

Did you hear that?

I only heard
ca-ching,ca-ching.

-I have nothing against the chinese.
-Denny.

so are you firing all thheavy
people crane,poole & schmidt?

Well,I had to start
someplace. I started with her.

Ca-ching.

And let's just suppose,say,my client
did agree to have sex with you.

too late. I've moved on.

Would you have fired her
had she not rejected you?

I fired her because according
to the harvard studies,

the social influence of fat people
can be just as damaging as genetics.

I tried to explain that to your client,but
her ears were too stuffed with twinkies.

on their way in or
out,I-I couldn't be sure.

Ca-ching.

What?

It's called functional
magnetic resonance imaging.

What does it do?

Well,in basic terms,it's a tool that allows us to visualize brain
function by showing changes in blood flow and other metabolic processes.

You can tell what someone is thinking?

We can tell how someone is feeling,

and we can specifically identify responses
associated with sociopathic tendencies.

Here,we determined the
defendant was racist.

You can really measure
this with accuracy?

Extreme accuracy.

In this case,we showed Mr. Bass
pictures of people from various races,

and then we measured the response in
the part of his brain that controls fear.

It's called the amygdala.

And what did it reveal?

Officer bass perceives
blacmen as threatening.

Possible he would be more
trigger-happy with a black man?

Absolutely.

How long have these tests been
used to read people's minds?

They read responses,not minds,but
the answer is a long time.

And here,they told you jeffrey bass
fears black men more than white.

Unquestionably.

Are you familiar with
shooter bias tests,professor?

They're video games with white
characters and black characters,

and the characters reach for
either guns or cell phones,

and you're supposed to only
shoot the ones with guns.

And do these tests reveal that white officers more
readily fire on blacks than black police officers?

No.

Shooter bias tests have
generally concluded that,

in this country,everyone
shoots black people faster.

focus on the images. This
should only take about a minute.

Okay.

why are we doing this?

if our scan gets different results,then
we can impeach the validity of theirs.

-and he's seeing what we're seeing?
-yes.

I don't ink our scan is
getting different results.

You can kiss my ass.

That's what you can do.
Well,you're a weirdo.

Take a look at this here.
Oh,his image,Mr. Minister.

Kiss that right there! His image!

Take a good kiss of that,Mr. Minister!

Outrageous.

Mr. Bell,the footage fairly and accurately
depicts what happened,doesn't it?

Yes,but it doesn't tell the whole story.

-Have you gone out in public dressed as a woman before?
-Yes.

-In fact,you once joined an all-girls
gym,isn't that correct? -Yes.

You recently signed up for a singing
contest in drag. You've gone to work in drag.

But that moment,without a
context,makes me look like.

you're a lawyer.

I am.

-Are you familiar with section 230 of the communications decency act?
-Yes,but.

which expressly protects online
services from defamation liability

arising from material posted
on their sites by individuals?

your honor,this was an
extremely embarrassing event,

aired worldwide on a web site,absent
the context that occasioned it.

The. the footage depicts what happened.

So where's the damage?

Your honor,think of it.

we've all had a meltdown or two,a-a
mortifying episode of some sort.

Typically we're allowed
to live those moments down.

But now thanks to the internet,we can'T.

Suppose I taped you
as justice bubblehead.

put that thing down.

-How would you like to be defined.
-put it down this instant!

My point is,life's little embarrassing moments are now
having far-reaching and more devastating consequences.

If the day has come that we are going to be publicly and globally shamed
by our foolish missteps,then the laws of defamation should keep pace.

Certainly when these tort laws were
drafted,the legislators never contemplated.

youtube.

I repeated my command to freeze.

This time he did,but then he started to
raise his hand,and in it was a metal object.

I thought it was a
gun,and I just reacted.

You know now he was probably
raising his hands in surrender.

Yes.

But at the timE.

I ought it was a gun.

Do you work in a pretty
tough neighborhood,Mr. Bass?

Yes,it's a gang neighborhood.

And have you ever been shot at before?

Three times.

Have you ever shot
anybody,besides B.J.Owens?

Twic hmm.

What color were they?

I patrol a predominately black area.

So the two you previously
shot were black?

Yes.

And according to internal affairs'
reports,one of the suspects was also unarmed.

I was cleared of any wrongdoing.

It was an innocent mistake.

Another mistake? Well,have you
ever mistakenly shot a white person?

-Objection.
-SustaineD.

According to the F.M.R.I.,You feel
more threatened by black people.

Why do you think that is?

Look,if that test is accurate,

it could be because statistically,
blacks commit more violent crimes.

it could be because I been shot
at three times by black suspects.

Or maybe you just dislike black people.

No,I do not.

I'm not a racist.

But you shot him eight times.

-Mrs.Owens.
-you just shot him till he was dead.

-You kept shooting and shooting and shooting!
-Mrs.Owens,I will have you.

-you murdered my baby!
-mom,calm down.

-You murderer!
-mrs.Owens,

any more such outbursts,and you
will be removed from this courtroom.

just let me do all the
talking,denny,every word.

Do not even move your lips
without checking with me first.

all rise.

You can't be serious.

Judas priest,she's the
size of an elephant.

be seated.

okay,I'll hear from the petitioner.

No,before we get to that,your honor,uh,alan
shore representing denny crane.

I-I have
a-a motion.

Let's hear it.

uh,your honor,uh,perhaps you are not the
right jurist to be objective on this one.

What do you mean?

his tongue is tied
for two reasons,judge.

First,it's puffy.

And second,it's a challenge
for him to spin this.

Denny crane fired nancy
wilding because she was fat.

It is bigotry in its
purest,most evil form.

Fat people in this country are subject
to prejudice,emotional abuse and ridicule.

It starts on the
playground,and it never stops.

This woman didn't get asked
to her high school prom.

Waiters and waitresses ignore her.

She's been denied housing,insurance.

Airlines want to charge her double.

But nancy wilding didn't sit in a
corner and feel sorry for herself.

She said,"hey,I'm gonna use my brain.

I'm gonna study.

I'm gonna go to law school.

" And she did.

And she graduated near the top
of her class,she passed the bar,

she performed ably and successfully
as a wyer,and where did it all get her?

Fired for being fat.

Somebody somewhere has
finally got to say enough.

Nancy wilding is hoping
that person is you.

I'll take it under advisement.

Uh,wait,wait. You didn't hear from me.

I'll take it under advisement. I'll
hear you before I read my ruling.

Judge,I don't think that's
how it's supposed to work.

Whatever.

-this is not going well,alan.
-You think?

She won't even hear our side.

Hopefully she will before.

excuse me,denny.

-Jerry?
-Alan.

What are you doing?

I'm standing with my
head up against a wall.

Yes.

Why?

I had a little row with leigh.

I saw that.

Much of the office did.

I think I was mean to her.

Was I mean to her?

Well,from my vantage
point,you were very mean.

She was feeling
hurt,extremely vulnerable.

She lashed out in pain,at which point you whipped
out the wooden cigarette and thrashed her with it.

I just felt everyone staring at us and.

have you called her to apologize?

Tried,but.

she's dating my clock
radio,just to get back at me.

Uh,I beg your pardon.

She has a crush on my clock radio.

I let her borrow it after
the utility box was killed,

and when I called to apologize,the
two of them were headed out to a movie.

I'm not quite sure
how to respond to that,

other than to say,you've had two
wonderful dates with this woman.

Uh,you're at the precipice of kissing.

And it just seems.

wrong for her now to be
dating your clock radio.

Policemen do tough work,dangerous
work in cities across this country

that seem to only grow
more and more dangerous.

That is a reality.

But here is another reality.

african-americans have been targeted
disproportionately in both arrests and excessive force.

Blacks comprise 13% of our population,yet
44% of our prison population.

And how many times do you have to turn on
the news and see that yet another innocent,

unarmed black man has been shot dead
by the police before we say enough?

Eight times,he shot him.

Even his partner,who is also his
friend,called the shooting "reckless.

" Was it an honest mistake?

Yeah,sure,like the last time he
mistakenly shot an unarmed black man.

How many mistakes.

can we allow him?

Do we keep tolerating
these executions or not?

The victim matched the
description of the armed suspect.

He raised his hand with
something metallic in it.

It looked like a gun. My client reacted.

The district attorney did not offer
even one witness to dispute that.

Instead,he gave you a brain scan.

The police can now take our
blood,our hair,our D.N.A.

They can make us give handwriting
samples,voice patterns.

They can cck our computers to see what
interests us,our gpses to see where we've been.

And today,they're introducing
scans to show our feelings.

Where does it stop?

And let's assume these M.R.I.S really can show
that my client feared black people more than whites.

So what?

The law has to distinguish
between thought and deed.

The supreme court is
doing away with warrants.

Our administration
eavesdrops on all of us.

Are we really going to allow this
government to unleash the thought police?

Are we that scared?

We must be.

Because today,the prosecution is trying to convict
a man of murder with nothing more than an M.R.I.

God help us.

it can't even keep proper time.

You even have a dishonest clock.

hey,I'd really love to chat,but
I'm running late for the moon.

I'm sorry,leigh.

I didn't mean what I said before.

I'd love to keep seeing you.

Just not in this lifetime.

I'm too odd,jerry. I get it.

You're not too odd.

It's. the reason.

it's just,our two dates went so well,I.

was afraid of the third date.

Why?

Because I was worried I'd be expected.

to kiss you.

Which I'd like to do,but it's all so
terrifying,your being a real person and all.

There.

Can we move on?

it went by so fast.

jerry,I'm just as scared.

Forget about kissing.

Have y thought about how hard it
will be for the two of us to hug?

All right.

All right.

First off,I will have no comment
about my modified headgear.

Truth is always a complete
defense against defamation.

Well,that's the law.

But I am minul that 30-second video
blogs. without the proper context.

do not always capture the truth.

I'm also mindful that we live in
a video world now,where every tom,

dick and harry with a cell phone is a de facto
cameraman and via the internet,a-a distributor.

Maybe the current tort
laws do need adjusting.

But right now,as they are written,they offer no
remedy to those who may be humiliated by this.

The case is therefore dismissed.

As a footnote,if anybody in this
room did take footage,moving or still,

of me in my headgear,you are hereby
enjoined from posting it anywhere.

We are adjourned.

I'm okay.

sorry,clarence. We tried.

Yes,thank you.

I think the best advice for all of us to remember is if
you're out in public, assume the cameras are watching.

Okay,then,I'm told we
have a unanimous verdict.

The defense will please rise.

Madam foreperson,what say you?

"in the matter "of the commonwealth vs. Jeffrey
bass "on the charge of murder in the second degree,

we find the defendant
jeffrey bass not guilty.

" no.

ladies and gentlemen of the jury,thank
you for your service. You're dismissed.

We're adjourned.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Get a job without a gun,Mr. Bass.

All right,I've made my ruling.

What? No.

You said you'd hear from me.

Yeah,I could predict what you'd say.

Well,I'd like to say it
just the same,your honor.

Whatever.

your honor,uh,what denny crane
did and said here was offensive.

It was cruel.

I'd go so far as to say indecent.

But every plaintiff has a
duty to mitigate damages,

and this woman was offered
her job back within an hour.

That couldn't make her
whole from the pain.

May I finish?

-I hereby rule that.
-no!

Your honor,I agree w-with m-many
of the things ms. Path said.

Fat people are discriminated
against,unfairly and pervasively.

It is unforgivable to judge somebody on physical
appearance alone,especially in the workplace.

But what my client did here
was not altogether wrong.

In fact,more employers should
draw a harder line on obesity.

Oh,really?

Yes,because it doesn't just go to looks.

-This goes to a serious health issue.
-a serious health issue.

And frankly,it's inexcusable.

65% of american adults are obese.

It's one of the leading causes
of death in this country.

The health care costs run
about $117 billion a year.

And we just keep eating
and eating and eating.

Look at me. Look at.

denny.

The fast food companies
keep proliferating.

Portion sizes keep
getting bigger and bigger.

candy bars and soft drinks.

and we keep getting fatter and fatter and
fatter as if it's not killing us,and it is.

And given this new study at harvard,maybe what
denny did,uh,wasn't altogether out of line.

Simply having fat friends can
triple your risk of becing obese.

If this is true,judge,if obesity is
contagious through social networking,

then maybe all employers have a duty to
their employees to weed out the heifers.

And maybe it's about time,uh,to
put aside our inflated sense

of political correctness and practice a
little tough love with our friends and family.

Say to a loved one,"you're fat.

" Tell a friend,"you look like a
hippo on the verge of a heart attack.

" Shock em into going on
diets,not just to save themselves,

but possibly their
friends and coworkers.

That's all denny crane
was trying to say.

And perhaps he should
be applauded for it.

You done?

Yes,your honor,it
appears I'm quite done.

case dismissed. adjourned.

we won?

we won.

I still can't believe
she ruled in our favor.

Because you judged her by
her appearance,that's why.

So did you.

maybe a little.

You know,denny,since I've been
your friend,I've gotten heavier.

You're blaming me?

Well,that study.

since I've met you,I've gotten bigger.

You're the feed bag.

Me?

You're the influence.

Oh,come on.

I don't believe that study anyway.

You don't?

Think about it.

Of course fat people have fat friends.

Thin people don't want to hang
around with them. They're too fat.

What?

You doing okay?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Of course you do.

Here's my philosophy on women,alan.

Oh,god.

It's better to want something you don't
have than have something you don't want.

Now when it comes to you and lorraine.

I can't have her.

Exactly.

Please don't reduce sleepover tonight?

No popcorn.

Oh,come on.

See? Bad influence.

Well,how can you watch
a movie without popcorn?

Did you not listen to my closing,denny?

I never listen.

-Was it good?
-It was good.

-So stop sulkG.
-I'm not sulking.

Well. don't even come over
if you're gonna be like that.

Maybe I won't then.

-Fine.
-Fine.

9:00?

No red vines.
