All language subtitles for Boston Legal [3x12]

Previously on Boston Legal...

Alan this is Vanessa Walker. She's from our New York office.

She invited me to join Crane, Poole and Schmidt.

I'm a big fan of diversity. I date midgets you know.

And their mothers.

I uh, got kicked out of my gym.

It's an all girls gym.

That's the reason you went back to that club as Clarence, so Sandy could meet you.

Clarence...I'd love to have dinner with you.

I'm hearing that Jeffrey Coho has set his little attenae on Denise.

I would like to start seeing you.

Friends with benefits?

Do you know what the term 'Friends with benefits' means?

You slut!

Denise.

I couldn't help but notice your

busy hands from afar.

I find there's little more intoxicating than a

pretty woman with a busy hand.

I imagine, later tonight, when I let my

mind wander to you as it so invariably does

my hand too will become busy.

Alan...

you've met Vanessa right?

Out of curiosity, how many times have women in the workplace sued you?

It never gets old.

Will you be sueing me?

I can't fly!

You're just discovering this?

Bella and I were headed for Hawaii. I got detained at the airport. They wouldn't let me board!

Why?

According to their records, I'm a terrorist.

- What?!
- That's what they said, a terrorist!

Bella is in Hawaii and I'm not. Alan you've got to help me.

Okay.

Nobody gets away with calling Denny Crane a terrorist!

What would you like me to do?

Perfect world, we blow them up.

Short of that.

Sleep with their wives.

You can do better.

Daughters?

Denny you're an American. What does any true red, white and blue American do when he's been wronged

or even slightly put out for that matter?

We sue!

Transcripts : Nuwanda
Synch : Nuwanda

Vanessa, thanks for coming.

This is Helen Choi.

- Nice to meet you.
- Hello.

Let's just jump right in since time is running short.

Helen teaches first grade at Aulston.

She tragically had one of her students pass away, due to an alergic reaction to peanuts.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Parents are sueing her for wrongful death sighting her negligence in the death of the child. The trial starts on wednesday.

I had another lawyer but the parents attorney is from a big firm and they

seemed to have overwhelmed him.

Why are they claiming you were negligent?

First for allowing the peanuts to even get in the room.

We check the lunches but,

another student had brought in a candy bar that I didn't know about.

And also at the time of the incident

I was on my cell phone.

It probably did distract me for a few seconds before I got to the epipen.

I've scheduled a settlement conference for today I'd like you to join us.

How long after that did the child die?

Um...

He died right there.

In the classroom.

Okay Denny, it's true you're on a no-fly list.

I told you.

They've obviously confused you with somebody else, I've arranged a meeting with a man from Homeland security.

He's coming here actually. His office is in some disarray.

And we won't be needing any guns.

Just want to show him that I got them like a good American. Why is he coming here?

Well, he didn't want you going there incase you also turned out to be...

What?

a spy.

- A spy?!
- Denny we'll clear it up, I promise.

- A spy?!
- Isn't there anyone you know?

Well I can't get anybody! I called Tom Delai's numbers, disconnected.

Foley has got his hand's full. Fris said don't take it personally.

I called Clarence Thomas his office said he was indisposed!

Have you tried going right to the top?

Janie?

Boys...

Shirley!

Did you hear? Denny can't fly.

Tell me about it. Have either of you seen Claire?

No, why?

Her assistant is causing a bit of a stir in the reception.

Clarence?

If only it were Clarence.

Clarice?

I still wish.

Who?

Oprah.

- Oh my!
- Wow!

Why is everybody hugging her?

She just gave them all cars. Evidently, high-end!

Denny Crane.

Hello Denny!

Clarence did something happen?

Nothing happened child.

It's just, January is Martin Luther King month.

I used to dress up as Dr. King, but kids today...half of them don't know who he is.

But they all know Oprah!

Ah, excuse me.

Homeland security is in your office.

Okay.

And uh, why would Homeland security be in your office?

Do you really want to know Paul?

No.

Dennis Crane.

The one we targeted is a Canadian born who converted to Islam and took up Jihad against the United States after 9/11.

He visited several terrorist training camps in Pakistan with known ties to Al Qaida.

He changed his name to Mohammed Al Zwari, but his passport still lists him as Dennis Crane which is why the name is on the no-fly list.

So.

Now that we've cleared it up.

It's not that simple.

The current technology doesn't provide airline officials with the targets date of birth, race or physical description.

Just a name.

Ha! Are you saying anyone named Dennis Crane -

Will not be allowed to fly on commercial airliners.

Unless he can get on the other list of people on the no-fly list, who can fly.

Uh, okay...so put him on that list.

Also not simple.

He'll have to fill out a form. And wait for approval.

Well, how long will it take?

It's umm...

indetermined.

Are you joking?

I assure you the federal government has no sense of humour.

And neither should you when it comes to the war on terror.

Let me shoot him.

Mr. Murch

There is nobody more red, white and blue than this man here. He is for the death penalty, he's pro-life.

He doesn't read newspapers. He's exercised every loop hole to avoid paying taxes.

He's even donated to the ???

I sympathize with you. I really do.

But these are some of the prices we pay to live in a free and democratic society which is safe.

Let me shoot him.

Are you threatening me?

No, that job falls to me Mr. Murch.

I will ask you nicely, to put Denny's name on the fly list.

Or I will complicate your life in federal court.

By the time I'm finished, your superiors won't be saying

Heck of a job Murchie!

You're threatening to mess up my life?

You're talking to Homeland security.

We're the master.

We couldn't have been more clear with her.

We had a meeting to specifically discuss the allergy.

We went over the precise procedure. She knew the severity of the risk.

We understand Mrs. Beckitt, nobody is denying the terrible tragedy that occurred.

But you are denying her copability, are you not?

Mr. & Mrs. Beckitt I'm sure you can appreciate that

as Helen's lawyers, we can't admit any liability on her part but

let's assume, for the sake of argument, she bares some responsibility

She has no assets.

Any judgement you get would not be recoverable.

This is not about money Miss Schmidt.

Okay.

Then...

If I may ask

What is it about?

We want to send a message. We want to put the word out.

That teachers like her, need to take care.

You need to take care.

Take off the wig Clarence.

This wig doesn't come off as easily child. It doesn't just pop off like a hood ornament.

What happened?

Obviously something went wrong with Sandy.

Sandy's a darling girl, but she wasn't remotely in a place to have a relationship

- know what I am saying?
- What happened?

There weren't any precipitating factors.

Sometimes two people, despite having a lot in common -

Can you just take off the wig?

Enough with the wig!

Forget the wig!

Who was that?

From the sound of his voice I'd say Clevant.

Clarence, you're not schizophrenic

You're just choosing to hide behind these personas espcially when...

What exactly happened with Sandy?

You know honey, I'll make a deal

We'll talk about Clarence and his personal life if we can first discuss yours.

Do you have a personal life Claire?

In the workplace? Absolutely not.

Any place?

Why do you dress the way you do?

What is wrong with the way I dress?

It just isn't...

very sexual. You appear to have a very good body and you cover it up.

I do not.

Have you been sexually assaulted Claire?

Okay Oprah.

Isn't this when on your show you cut to a commercial?

You as a big loaded melodramatic question and then you say, "we'll be right back after this".

Why don't you say that?

One second Denny.

Denny and I are off to federal court. Seem's he's on the

no-fly list.

Gee.

Denise, I thought you'd be more sympathetic. Denny can't

spread his wings. Imagine how you'd feel if you were

robbed of the opportunity to

spread yours.

That is so lame.

Why do you smell of sex Denise?

Excuse me?

A woman gives off a certain scent when she's having sex.

- Who are you having sex with Denise?
- Okay.

You are out of your mind.

Smells like Brad.

Is it Brad?

What was that all about?

He knows.

- Knows what?
- That we're having sex.

Did you tell anybody?

How could he possibly know unless you told somebody.

I didn't tell anybody!

He smelt it on me.

Oh stop it!

I had checked the lunches. I check them all everyday.

The school has a strict no peanut policy.

Yes. And all parents were notified verbally and in writing, not to bring anything with nuts to class.

So what happened?

Well, the childeren were eating. All of a sudden, Nate...

he was on the floor...

I went over...

He had gone into shock.

- And then?
- And then I followed the protocol.

I unlocked the first aid cabinet, I got out an epipen, I jammed it into his thigh but...

It was too late.

It turns out another student had bought in a mini candy bar with nuts in it and...

I never saw it.

What exactly were you doing when Nate Beckitt went into anaphylactic shock?

I was talking on my cell phone.

Is that permissible? For teachers to be on their cell phones during class?

It was during lunch, but no, it is not permissible.

My father had had surgery that morning, I was anxious to check up on him.

In fact you had your back turned on your students as you spoke on the phone.

My father had a life threatening condition, I didn't want to alarm the students.

How long had Nate been on the floor before you noticed him?

Well, uh...the childeren started to scream so...

I don't know. Not long.

- 20 seconds?
- At the most.

- I would say under.
- But possibly 20 seconds?

Possibly.

How long have you been a teacher?

Seven years.

- Do you like it?
- I love it.

It's all I ever wanted to do.

Has anything like this ever happened in your class before?

No...God no.

I just...

I know I shouldn't have been on my cell phone.

If I may ask

what was the outcome of your dad's surgery?

He didn't make it.

We're back from that commercial break. In case you want to continue our conversation.

You know what? You want to take off that wig and talk, fine. But I'm not sharing my life with Oprah.

I'm not capable of having that talk as Clarence, which you know. You got issues girl...

Now you can go through life letting people in or keeping them shut out. Your choice.

I have never been sexually assaulted!

I have certainly been groped on the odd date, but

let's just say, it's nothing I couldn't handle.

Is one of the ways you handle it by addressing in a non sexual way?

I don't think I dress that way.

I dress maybe a little conservatively but -

Why? Conservative is not a word I'd use to describe you Claire. You're a

Balls out kind of girl.

In case you haven't noticed

this place is a rather spectacular boys club.

If you so much as turn your back on Denny Crane, he tries to mount you.

Alan Shore is in the guiness book of lechers.

I don't believe you.

I am standing here talking to Oprah. Believe it.

Shirley Schmidt is a named partner.

And a queen bee, which is how she'd like to keep it.

Look, I'm busy. Let's cut to another commercial.

One of the reasons this may be an old boys club

is because the women here feel they have to become one of the boys to succeed.

You are a tough broad Claire.

If any girl's got a shot of crashing through that plexi glass ceiling

it's got to be you. Don't be afraid to be sexy.

And don't be afraid to be soft.

Succeed on your terms here. Not theirs.

How about we both try and work on that?

Clarence needs to come back to work. I can't afford Oprah.

They pulled me out before I could board. Put me in this little room.

At some point, somebody joined you in the little room?

Hmm...somebody from the transportation security, told me I can't fly!

Did he say why?

My name is on the no fly list!

You've since cleared up the confusion.

Oh confusion yes, not the problem. Still can't fly!

Unless I get these special papers, which could take who knows how long.

It's ridiculous! It's why I usually fly private.

You're still not allowed to fly?

No!

Why has this reached my court room?

Mr. Crane is looking for special treatment your honour.

Special treatment? To be allowed to fly on an airplane without government interference?

The special treatment he seeks is to get off the no fly list without the specified papers that tax payers on the list must typically wait for.

Why are typical tax payers even on the list?

Look, incase you haven't noticed

Here it comes.

We're in a war on terror. People screamed after 9/11 that we didn't do enough to prevent it

now you bitch we're doing too much.

Because you are! Law abiding, loyal Americans are being treated like ???

??? don't declare themselves Mr. Shore incase -

Mr. Randolph I am not persuaded. Who've you got?

I have Linwood Winchell, from the transportation security administration.

Get his ass up here.

I like you.

Anaphylactic shock can come suddenly, which is what happened here.

The air waves can become clogged in less than 30 seconds.

If the epipen isn't administered it could be fatal.

If Miss Choi had gotten to your son sooner...

We obviously can't know for sure.

But he had had these attacks before

and the epipen, along with the pills, had proven effective.

So her delay might very well have contributed to his death.

Yes.

Now Mr. Beckitt, she's a teacher, not a doctor.

Teachers are trained in first aid, including the use of an epipen. This teacher

in fact had been trained. We made sure of it.

But realistically, is what happened here really a for seeable thing?

Yes. Health care need students are now typically main stream.

Between 10 and 20 percent of todays public school students have chronic physical, emotional or social problems.

And the peanut allergy is a big one.

She knew.

10 to 20 percent of our high school students have chronic medical or social problems?

50 million Americans suffer from some kind of auto immune disease.

It's become epidemic.

Are we increasing the number of nurses in our public schools?

As far as I know, no.

So, we just hand off to the teachers?

Reading, writing, arithmetic and epidemics?

She knew her responsibilities, accepted them

and failed to live up to them.

Look, we're all sorry for the mix up but

we are in a pitch battle with religious fanatics

who use civilian aircrafts as missiles against high density targets.

Well can't you just take Mr. Crane's name off the list?

In which case the target, that terrorist with the Jihad, is also allowed to travel. None of us want that.

The system can't differentiate?

In time it will be able to, but for now lets make the skies safe.

And by doing that by the way, there hasn't been an aviation hi-jack since 9/11.

Mr. Crane left that detail out of his lawsuit.

You seem quite pleased with yourself.

Actually Mr. Shore, my tone is more exasperated.

I'm rather sick of everyone dumping on homeland security.

By everyone you mean -

The media, the lawyers who love to file suit

The 9/11 commission they dumped on you pretty good didn't they?

- Somewhat.
- Somewhat?

A 'D' in port security, an 'F' in improving communications for verse responders

a 'D' in border security, an 'F' in aviation security, a 'D' in chemical plant security

these aren't passing grades Mr. Winchell.

We're doing what we can, and lawsuits like this one don't help.

I read Ted Kennedy was on your no fly list. Does he take the train now?

That situation was resolved.

And yet the British suspects who were arrested

last summer for plotting to blow up an aircraft, they weren't on the list

despite being under surveillance for over a year. How is that possible?

Some of the more dangerous ones we leave off.

Excuse me?

If suspected terrorists knew their names were on the list

they could change their operational plans and make them harder to capture.

So...Mr. Crane...

an American citizen who has no ties to any terrorist organization is on the list

but some of the most dangerous terrorists, are not?

I'll tell you this Mr. Smug. For every innocent ??? there is ten guilty ones.

- So don't tell me -
- Really? Like whom?!

- I can't reveal classified information.
- Well, lucky for me I have my own sources.

A recent study of the 441 terrorism related arrests made in the United States reveal that virtually

all of them involved lesser charges. Like visa violations, fraud. Not terrorism.

You know sir, I go to work everyday and try to make America safer. What do you do?

I'll tell you what you do. You represent a lot of people like Mr. Crane, who have a lot of time and money on their hands

who can afford to manipulate the legal system, to make my job tougher.

I suppose your right. One has to wonder how many Denny Crane's are out there.

Being denied the right to fly. Who can't afford an attorney.

Do we have any with us today? If so, please stand.

Everyone here is named Denny Crane.

These are just the ones within driving distance, of course, since airplane travel is not an option.

Thank you.

Oh. Would you please.

You still smell of sex. This time with a...

tinge of Jeffrey Coho.

Are you on drugs?

Hi guys.

Are you sleeping with Denise, Jeffrey?

As he is not...

So what did he want?

- Who?
- Shore. Saw him in there.

Ah, usual nonsense.

If it's any help, Sally said he can't take any role reversal.

What does that mean?

It means when the woman becomes the preadator.

He runs away like a little bunny.

Really?

Mrs. Beckitt

This lawsuit can't bring your son back.

No, but maybe it can save someone else's child.

And like my husband said, there are millions of childeren with auto immune diseases

many in public schools relying on a standard of care.

If this lawsuit can sound a bell...

We count on our teachers

My God, we trust you with our babies.

I don't mean to be insensitive

but you're a person of means, are you not Mrs. Beckitt?

I am financially secure. If you think for a second that eases my -

I'm sure that it doesn't but, and

I'm sorry if this does sound insensitive

but you had the means to hire a shadow nurse didn't you?

Some parents do that. They sit in the back of the classroom pretending to be a lab teacher or...

or...

you could have put your son in private school where the teacher-student ratio is less than 30 to 1.

How dare you.

I apologize Mrs. Beckitt but you're sitting in that chair, playing arm chair quarter back

saying that my client could have prevented this tradergy.

When in fact you could have as well.

I would have done whatever I thought necessary Miss Walker.

Including private schools or shadow nurses.

After meeting with your client I didn't believe that to be necessary.

Because my client struck you as being both capable and dedicated.

Yes.

Thank you.

We live in a different world since 9/11.

But no one here seems really willing to live in that world.

Sergeant Mike Kraus of the army's 101st airbourne division in both Iraq and Afghanistan was recently quoted in the New York times he said

We're no where close to sharing the sacrifice, and it must be shared

because it's only in that sharing that society will truely care about what's going on over there.

In previous war times, the public was called upon to make great sacrifices.

They were told to give up meat and rubber and steel. Young men were

drafted into the military.

Today there's no draft, there's no rationing. No one's telling you to buy war bonds.

No one's rounding you up to put you in terming camps because of your nationality.

The no fly list is an inconvenience your honour.

And an inconvenience for a very small part of the population.

Just think if we'd been able to stop those 9/11 hi-jackers from ever getting on those planes

because their name were on a list, warning us of their potential for harm.

But all Mr. Crane seems to care about is

he's delayed getting to Maui.

Some sacrifice.

This is going to be long, isn't it?

Some of the new iPods...you can load up to twenty thousand songs on them.

Streams of videos, pictures, all on a thing this big.

The technology in this country is staggering.

And yet the government can't get their computers to erase my client from the no fly list.

Even though they admit he shouldn't be on it!

Instead, anybody named Denny Crane can't fly.

Now, Mr. Winchell is correct. He doesn't need me to

indite homeland security, the 9/11 commission already did that.

The American public certainly doesn't need to hear it from me, no

what homeland securit could really use from me or others, preferably others, is a little help.

Why not get it?

I'm sure Tom Ridge is a very nice man, capable too, as is

Michael Chertoff. But I can get twenty thousand songs on my iPod!

We have geniuses in this country. True pioneers of innovation.

Steve Jobs, Steven Wozniak, Steve Balmer...if we could just round up some of our best Steve's!

We've got kids in garages inventing Google and YouTube.

Jets cannot only fly by computer, but they can now take-off and land by auto pilot.

Should we truely be stumped by this no fly computer list?

How about something so simple as issuing a flyers license. It could have your picture

finger prints, you show it, scan the card and your fingers at the gate, if it's a match you get your aisle seat

This can't be un-doable. Expensive, maybe

but judging from recent spending patterns, we've got billions to throw around.

Halliburton alone has profited over ten billion from the war. Maybe we can get them to kick in.

Why is it, our government leaders only tap in to the

private sector for campaign contributions or to pass out contracts to ???

Bill Gates is out there...Paul Allen. Has anybody called them?

I bet Marc Cuban would personally fund the computer upgrades if you gave him free publicity.

Is it really against national policy to think outside the box?

This isn't about beating up on homeland security.

Everybody knows they're trying, I'm sure they're good people.

But they simply cannot dispatch a representative to this courtroom to say the problem isn't fixable.

While thousands of Americans are being denied due process. It so easily has to be fixable.

And in the mean time, my client sits here today, a law abiding man grounded.

While Bella lays riving in Maui.

Too long?

- Stop it I'm serious.
- Just one little waft.

Alan I am not finding this amusing, I'm about to register you as a sex offender.

What?

This time I detect both Brad and Jefferey.

Denise if it's public course I should be allowed to play.

Alan...

Let's go to your office for a minute.

- Really?
- Hmm.

Wanna pull out your three-wood?

I was thinking my sand wedge.

Let's go.

- Sorry?
- See...

You like to talk...

I don't. I like to...do.

I also like to be spontaneous.

What are you saying?

I'm saying you got 5 minutes. Your desk looks available.

You want to have sex on my desk?

Right now...

Surely you jest.

Don't you?

I don't joke...about sex.

So, we on the desk? Or not.

You can tell Sally she was wrong!

- Hey.
- No, no!

Hele Choi, was specifically trained to use an epipen.

She knew how critical even a few lost seconds could be.

She was on her cell phone against school policy

had her back turned to her students

she didn't even notice Nate when he first went down and with anaphalactic shock

the difference between life and death...

is seconds.

Now if this were an isolated incident, if Nate had suffered some sort of freak reaction i suppose...

that we could all say, well sometimes bad things happen.

But the reality is, that kids with special needs, with medical needs

are now main streamed in our public schools. Our teachers need to be vigilant.

And she wasn't.

As a result, a little boy died.

We need you to send a message, not just to Helen Choi but to all the teachers

that this is not acceptable.

Like Rachel Beckitt said,

we trust you with our babies.

Lawsuits are about allocating burden.

For example, we want our cars to be safer so we hit the manufacturers with a judgment

that makes it more cost effective to install the air bag.

The problem here, as Miss Bixby correctly states

is we have more and more special needs for kids going into our public schools.

Combined with an unprecedented escalation in autoimmune diseases

Autism, the peanut allergy alone has doubled in recent years.

So, who do we heap this responsibility on?

Who else?

The teachers.

The average annual starting salary for a teacher

is thirty two thousand dollars.

For that we ask them to teach, police, provide emotional and social guidance

in some schools they actually have to clean the toilets.

Now lets throw in health care.

This teacher,

she worked 65 hour weeks.

In addition to her actual classroom duties, she

teaches sex education to the older kids,

she teaches a standardized test the school mandates in order to qualify for funding, under the "no child left behind" act,

she spends another 10 hours a month meeting with parents,

she supervises extra curricular activities, goes on over night class trips,

cleans and disinfects toys, coaches,

she teaches fire drills, safety procedures, healthy eating habits, she is certified

in CPR, first aid and food sanitation

She is so over extended

that when her own father had to under go a life threatening medical procedure...

she couldn't be at the hospital.

So she called on her cell phone to see if she had lived...

which he hadn't.

She then turned away from the students so as not to traumatize them with her grief.

Which as a teacher she was expected to internalize.

She has no savings...

no house...

And today she is being sued because without her knowledge

One of her students snuck in a bite sized candy bar containing traces of peanut

into her classroom.

Now she's being publicly blamed for the death of a child

whose parents had the means to implement a multitude of safegaurds.

They implemented none of them, except...

a teacher.

Is it any wonder half our teachers are quitting the proffession outright within 5 years?

Nevermind who is going to handle the epipen...

who's going to teach?

Oh, thank you.

Clarence

I believe the deal was, if I dish, you dish.

So? What happened with Sandy?

She just...uh...

She just didn't...like me that way.

Could I get you to look at me for a second?

There will be women who do.

Is that all?

Yeah, that's all.

I realise that homeland security has had a pretty rough go off late

and I certainly don't want to pile on.

But, I have to agree with Mr. Shore.

Given the capacity of technology today, this has to be a fixable problem.

I don't think Mr. Crane should have to sit around waiting for you to fix it.

It is the order of this court that you take the petitioner off the no fly list

or in the alternative, put him on the list of those who can fly even though they are on the no fly list.

We are adjourned.

High ties Bella!

Midnight Hawaii time, my head will be the center of a fire sandwich.

Due process does have its dividends.

Maybe you should come with me

Forget it! I'm not getting sloppy seconds after Bella!

Denny.

Bethany! What a...a coincidence.

Actually not, I heard you were here.

Listen, I've been doing a lot of thinking about what you said and

nevermind all the reasons not to date somebody.

What does your heart say?

Because mine says

to give this a chance,

Oh...

Can I take you to dinner?

Well actually I'm getting on a plane.

Where are you going?

Hawaii

I see...

with somebody?

Well...

actually...

yes.

Is it my mother?

Technically...

yes.

I see.

Have a lovely time.

Sorry to bother you.

Denny, I'm a fairly stern of telling the truth but sometimes

its more humane to lie.

I felt like a deer in the headlights...I hope I didn't hurt her.

At least my mother taught me how to tackle.

Good by Denny Crane!

And tell Bell, she better watch her back.

That is one tough broad.

Mr. Foreman, the jury has reached a verdict?

We have your honour.

What say you?

In the matter of the estate of Nathaniel Beckitt versus Helen Choi

we the jury find in favour of...

the defendent.

Thank you for your service. This jury is dismissed.

I don't know what to say...thank you. Thank you both so so much.

Congratulations.

We can help you get reinstated if you like.

Oh, uh...

Thank you but, actually my brother-in-law has a real estate business and...

well I decided to go for my brokers license.

Oh...

Okay.

Yeah, its a really exciting opportunity and I'd be crazy not to take it.

There's room for growth and...

you know I think it might be something I'd enjoy so, I figure why not right?

Yeah.

What time is your flight?

9.

You can still change your mind.

I'm sure by now Mr. Winchell has added my name to the no fly list.

Alan...I'm grateful for everything you did but

I wasn't crazy about you attacking the government.

Don't be silly, I'm sure you were a little crazy.

I happen to agree with a lot of what Randolph said in his closing, people in this country got to sacrifice more.

Is that why your flying commercial and not taking your Gulf Stream?

Doesn't do any good to sit back and criticize.

Sometimes it does Denny.

Sometimes the most patriotic thing you can do is criticize.

Liberty in this country was founded on that very ideal.

How did it happen that the scent became...

some form of heresy?

Well I will for the scent...

When I'm sure I'm right.

Denny I'm not sure I ever told you this, but I truely love America.

I would never consider living anywhere else.

Well this country is only 200 years old, it's a work in progress especially lately.

Well alright Mr. Smartypants. You get to change one thing, what is it?

Get rid of all stores that end with mart.

Besides that.

One change...

Well, first I'd like to stop people from passing off

narrow mindedness and intolerance as family values.

No no no, that's political. Doesn't count.

Name a change that relates to this issue...government technology.

I made that suggestion in court, hire the geniuses not the guy who's got the best ??? or the

rich friend who will take you to his quail ranch and let you shoot them.

Hire the thinkers.

The Steve's!

For a start, instead of every Tom, Dick and Brownie lets turn out visionaries loose

at the very least we can get rid of those stores where you can buy both meat and cd's.

What would you change?

- Not a thing.
- Not a thing?

This country works Alan. You democrats don't want to admit it. Oh I'm not saying there aren't kinks

foam chips off the occasional space craft, we start the odd war on false pretenses, but by and large...

America works!

That's why I'm completely nuts about it.

To Denny Crane...

Completely nuts!
