1
00:00:02,065 --> 00:00:03,557
Previous on Boston Legal.

2
00:00:03,668 --> 00:00:07,233
I was a drug addict.
I needed my father, and you abandoned me.

3
00:00:07,338 --> 00:00:08,602
- Who is this?
- Your granddaughter.

4
00:00:08,707 --> 00:00:10,438
Please welcome
Mr. and Mrs. Denny Crane.

5
00:00:10,542 --> 00:00:14,711
- Denny?
- Bev has hired an army of lawyers to gut this firm.

6
00:00:14,814 --> 00:00:17,718
An agreement has been reached
on the matter of Crane versus Crane.

7
00:00:17,817 --> 00:00:20,186
I will buy a house
for Bev in Hawaii.

8
00:00:20,286 --> 00:00:21,880
You'll be the one that
got away from Denny Crane.

9
00:00:22,023 --> 00:00:24,757
- Look me up if you’re ever on the Big Island.
- I dm the big island.

10
00:00:24,860 --> 00:00:27,423
Denny, they're doing some sort
of renovations at my hotel.

11
00:00:27,529 --> 00:00:31,903
- I was wondering if could spend the night at your place.
- Stays long as you need.

12
00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:45,051
Twenty-five percent of married couples...

13
00:00:45,149 --> 00:00:47,052
which, to me,
is a enlarge number...

14
00:00:47,152 --> 00:00:49,054
do not sleep in the same bed.

15
00:00:49,154 --> 00:00:50,987
Denny, you ready to go?

16
00:00:51,089 --> 00:00:54,290
- They say it has nothing to do with not being compatible.
- Denny?

17
00:00:54,393 --> 00:00:56,295
You want to get
a good night's rest.

18
00:00:56,396 --> 00:00:59,300
Denny, you must go to work.
It's hump day, your favorite day.

19
00:00:59,399 --> 00:01:01,996
I don't have a favorite
anything anymore.

20
00:01:02,102 --> 00:01:06,943
Listen, I understand the need to retreat
into oneself after a failed love affair...

21
00:01:07,042 --> 00:01:09,809
but you haven't
gone to work in three days.

22
00:01:09,912 --> 00:01:11,906
You've been
in that bed for two.

23
00:01:12,015 --> 00:01:15,113
You're drinking...
scotch at 9:OO in the morning.

24
00:01:15,218 --> 00:01:17,746
And most disturbingly,
you're watching rhea Yew.

25
00:01:17,855 --> 00:01:20,052
Leave me alone.

26
00:01:21,692 --> 00:01:23,959
Hey, hey, hey!
Same team!

27
00:01:24,062 --> 00:01:27,034
- Same team!
- Consider this an intervention.

28
00:01:27,132 --> 00:01:30,970
It's no use, Alan.
Nothing interests me anymore.

29
00:01:32,271 --> 00:01:34,138
Construction worker
Russell Blarney...

30
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:38,511
arrested for attempted murder for setting
a booby trap in his home to catch burglars.

31
00:01:38,612 --> 00:01:42,279
Miguel Dominguez allegedly
broke into Blarney’s house...

32
00:01:42,382 --> 00:01:46,619
and received a reported 50, OOO volts
of electricity through his body...

33
00:01:46,722 --> 00:01:48,715
parlaying him
from the waist down.

34
00:01:48,824 --> 00:01:51,956
And leaving us all with
the question: Russell Blarney...

35
00:01:52,062 --> 00:01:54,898
- victim or vigilante?
- Thank you, Ross, for that report.

36
00:01:54,998 --> 00:01:59,064
That case.
I want that case.

37
00:02:00,638 --> 00:02:02,835
I see your bliss
is back as well.

38
00:02:08,081 --> 00:02:11,076
Your Honor, the Commonwealth
moves that bail be denied.

39
00:02:11,183 --> 00:02:14,054
Mr. Blarney is charged with attempted murder
and is an obvious flight risk.

40
00:02:14,155 --> 00:02:19,394
- If may, my client-
- Your Honor, I need a moment with my client.

41
00:02:19,493 --> 00:02:22,864
- You don't have a client here, Mr. Crane.
- Count to 1 O, Judge.

42
00:02:22,964 --> 00:02:25,265
Mr. Blarney,
do you know who I am?

43
00:02:25,367 --> 00:02:29,034
Yeah, you're Denny Crane.
I've seen you on Larry in. You're famous.

44
00:02:29,138 --> 00:02:32,578
So, who would you rather
have as your attorney? Me or, uh...

45
00:02:32,675 --> 00:02:34,737
"Hacky McGuilty Verdict"
here?

46
00:02:34,845 --> 00:02:37,749
- I've faced him before. You'd rather have him.
- Don't feel bad, son.

47
00:02:37,848 --> 00:02:43,088
- Takes a big man to recognize a bigger man.
- We're waiting, Mr. Crane.

48
00:02:43,189 --> 00:02:46,025
Uh, I move for a continuance,
Your Honor.

49
00:02:47,626 --> 00:02:49,858
I just got the case.

50
00:03:24,436 --> 00:03:28,240
Shirley, first thing in the morning.
Haven't even had my coffee.

51
00:03:28,341 --> 00:03:33,283
Normally I'd make a witty retort about
caffeine and your aging reproductive system.

52
00:03:33,379 --> 00:03:37,013
But not today, Alan.
I have a problem.

53
00:03:37,118 --> 00:03:40,421
Carl Hauser died this week.

54
00:03:40,521 --> 00:03:42,958
The photographer?

55
00:03:43,058 --> 00:03:46,998
I knew him years ago.
We hadn't been in touch for some time.

56
00:03:47,096 --> 00:03:50,433
- But, well, he's dead.
- I'm sorry.

57
00:03:52,602 --> 00:03:56,133
I met Carl when I was
a sophomore at Wellesley.

58
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,443
I spent the summer in Manhattan,
and we met in the West Village.

59
00:04:00,544 --> 00:04:04,280
He was this amazing,
fascinating man...

60
00:04:04,383 --> 00:04:06,478
and he told me
I was very pretty...

61
00:04:06,585 --> 00:04:10,856
and I did some
modeling for him.

62
00:04:12,226 --> 00:04:14,857
Please tell me this is going
where I think it's going.

63
00:04:14,962 --> 00:04:20,805
Yeah, it is. Carl took some vey tasteful
black-and-white nudes of me.

64
00:04:20,902 --> 00:04:23,841
I am so disappointed in you,
Shirley. "Tasteful"?

65
00:04:23,939 --> 00:04:25,841
There's going to be
an estate auction...

66
00:04:25,941 --> 00:04:28,971
and I want you to find a way to block
the sale of those photographs.

67
00:04:29,079 --> 00:04:30,878
How many pictures
are we talking about?

68
00:04:30,981 --> 00:04:35,423
I think there were 15,
maybe 20-

69
00:04:35,519 --> 00:04:38,218
- That's not so many.
- rolls of film that he used.

70
00:04:38,323 --> 00:04:42,594
I am so glad I came
into work today.

71
00:04:42,695 --> 00:04:45,258
Down, boy.
This is serious.

72
00:04:45,364 --> 00:04:49,429
Carl promised me that he wouldn't show
the photographs to anyone.

73
00:04:49,536 --> 00:04:52,474
However, I signed
a standard release...

74
00:04:52,572 --> 00:04:55,841
saying that he could
show them to... everyone.

75
00:04:55,943 --> 00:04:58,244
Why are you so worried
about this, Shirley?

76
00:04:58,347 --> 00:05:00,784
You were young.
Young people do all sorts of things.

77
00:05:00,882 --> 00:05:04,754
And now you wear clothes
to the office every single day.

78
00:05:04,854 --> 00:05:09,056
Shocking as it may seem to you, Alan,
I like my privacy.

79
00:05:09,159 --> 00:05:11,722
Maybe I'll want to be
a federal judge someday.

80
00:05:11,829 --> 00:05:15,394
And being a named partner
at a prestigious law firm-

81
00:05:15,499 --> 00:05:18,939
well, it's not good for business.

82
00:05:20,905 --> 00:05:22,808
I'll give you my best effort.

83
00:05:22,908 --> 00:05:25,208
Of course, at some point...

84
00:05:25,311 --> 00:05:29,377
I will have to examine
the evidence thoroughly.

85
00:05:53,744 --> 00:05:56,477
oh,
here we are.

86
00:05:56,580 --> 00:05:58,676
- Oh, sorry we're late.
- No problem.

87
00:05:58,784 --> 00:06:01,847
Fiona, say hello to Grandpa.

88
00:06:01,953 --> 00:06:03,981
- Hi, Paw-Paw.
- Hi.

89
00:06:04,090 --> 00:06:07,291
- Hello, sweetheart.
- I guess you're Paw-Paw from now on.

90
00:06:07,394 --> 00:06:09,797
Well, that's one of the nicest
names I've ever been called.

91
00:06:09,897 --> 00:06:13,337
We were almost out the door.
She insisted on wearing the red cowboy boots.

92
00:06:13,435 --> 00:06:15,632
I finally said okay.
Then we could only find one.

93
00:06:15,737 --> 00:06:18,003
- We found the other one on top of the refrigerator.
- Oh!

94
00:06:18,106 --> 00:06:21,307
It's pointless to ask how it got on the refrigerator.
You just grab it and go.

95
00:06:21,410 --> 00:06:24,975
I took the liberty of ordering
coffee and some hot chocolate.

96
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,278
Oh, thanks so much.

97
00:06:27,384 --> 00:06:31,325
We can just stay a second.
It's Fiona's first day at Happy Duck Day Care.

98
00:06:31,422 --> 00:06:36,057
- Ah. Is that a good place?
- Oh, don't let the cheesy name fool you. They're great.

99
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,622
I went to so many places.
I had a checklist I used.

100
00:06:39,731 --> 00:06:42,430
Ah, yeah, here it is.

101
00:06:42,534 --> 00:06:45,701
Ah, let's see
what we have here.

102
00:06:45,805 --> 00:06:49,210
"Child care questions.
Are they licensed and monitored?

103
00:06:49,310 --> 00:06:52,511
"Do they afford opportunities
for both active and quiet play?

104
00:06:52,613 --> 00:06:55,414
"Is the staff
trained in C. P. R.?

105
00:06:55,516 --> 00:06:58,819
Do the kids appear happy?"

106
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,824
- Rachel, this is a very thorough list.
- She's my daughter.

107
00:07:03,359 --> 00:07:06,230
- Where are my keys?
- It's in your pocket.

108
00:07:06,330 --> 00:07:08,927
- Yeah. Here they are.
- Ah.

109
00:07:10,468 --> 00:07:12,904
Dad, in all the cowboy boot
madness this morning, I-

110
00:07:13,004 --> 00:07:15,440
I lost may. T. M. card
somewhere.

111
00:07:15,540 --> 00:07:19,503
- You think you could lend me 40 bucks?
- Uh, no problem.

112
00:07:19,611 --> 00:07:24,281
You know, um, Rachel,
uh, if you’re in a hurry...

113
00:07:24,384 --> 00:07:29,623
to get to work, I can drop Fiona off
at, uh, Happy Duck, is it?

114
00:07:29,723 --> 00:07:32,354
Oh, thanks.
We'll make it okay.

115
00:07:32,460 --> 00:07:35,900
Fiona, we have to go.
Thank Paw-Paw for your hot chocolate.

116
00:07:35,997 --> 00:07:39,438
- Thanks, Paw-Paw, for my chocolate.
- You're very welcome.

117
00:07:39,536 --> 00:07:41,506
- Thanks, Dad.
- Bye, darling.

118
00:07:41,603 --> 00:07:44,074
- Sera.
- Bye-bye.

119
00:07:44,173 --> 00:07:46,474
Bye-bye, Fiona.

120
00:07:46,576 --> 00:07:48,546
Bye-bye.

121
00:08:04,364 --> 00:08:06,266
By your look,
it's not good.

122
00:08:06,366 --> 00:08:09,498
I believe Rachel's
using again.

123
00:08:09,603 --> 00:08:11,505
She's back
on crystal meth.

124
00:08:11,605 --> 00:08:13,507
What proof do you have?

125
00:08:13,608 --> 00:08:16,101
We were supposed
to meet at 8:OO.

126
00:08:16,211 --> 00:08:18,113
Coffee shop
near her apartment.

127
00:08:18,213 --> 00:08:20,980
She showed up 20 minutes late
with Fiona in tow.

128
00:08:21,083 --> 00:08:24,022
She was harried, disorganized.
She couldn't find her keys.

129
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:28,186
Paul, you have just described every single
working mother in America.

130
00:08:29,293 --> 00:08:31,696
Then she asked
to borrow $40.

131
00:08:33,064 --> 00:08:35,729
Crystal meth users
live their lives...

132
00:08:35,834 --> 00:08:38,499
in $40 increments,
cash.

133
00:08:41,274 --> 00:08:43,575
Paul, this is a vey
serious accusation...

134
00:08:43,676 --> 00:08:47,309
and you need to be absolutely
certain before you make it.

135
00:08:47,414 --> 00:08:49,851
I know.

136
00:08:49,950 --> 00:08:52,889
Film right and I do nothing,
Fiona could be in danger.

137
00:08:52,988 --> 00:08:55,892
If act and I'm wrong...

138
00:08:55,991 --> 00:08:59,453
Rachel will never speak to me again
and she'll cut me out forever.

139
00:08:59,562 --> 00:09:03,435
- What do I do?
- You've lived through a lot with Rachel...

140
00:09:03,533 --> 00:09:07,166
and this relationship you’re developing
with her now is vey new.

141
00:09:07,270 --> 00:09:09,332
You might want
to ask yourself...

142
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:14,406
if your histoy with Rachel's drug use
is causing you to overreact.

143
00:09:14,513 --> 00:09:17,212
Just think about it.

144
00:09:33,468 --> 00:09:36,133
You, Blondie.
You're on my team.

145
00:09:38,274 --> 00:09:40,905
If you’ve seen the news, you
know what a travesty this is.

146
00:09:41,010 --> 00:09:44,073
A man arrested
for defending his own home.

147
00:09:44,181 --> 00:09:47,278
It's a farce. Not the funny kind.
This is one serious farce.

148
00:09:47,384 --> 00:09:49,912
May I ask what we're pleading?
It seems self-defense-

149
00:09:50,020 --> 00:09:52,082
Don't like that kind of thinking.
Defensive thought.

150
00:09:52,190 --> 00:09:55,026
We've got to strike first, preempt 'em.
What did they say in the news?

151
00:09:55,126 --> 00:09:59,090
"Victim or vigilante?" It's neither.
This is Russell Blarney, hero.

152
00:09:59,198 --> 00:10:01,761
- You want to tee this case in the press?
- Exactly.

153
00:10:01,867 --> 00:10:04,600
I want to grab
the public's...

154
00:10:04,706 --> 00:10:07,473
attention with a story,
a character, narrative.

155
00:10:07,575 --> 00:10:09,910
We have to create
our own reality.

156
00:10:12,648 --> 00:10:15,085
You, young punk,
you must know computers.

157
00:10:15,184 --> 00:10:19,387
Set up a Web site, one of those blogs-
"Justice for Russell Blarney. "

158
00:10:19,489 --> 00:10:23,658
And you, Denise, you'll be my second.
You look good on camera.

159
00:10:31,303 --> 00:10:33,831
Carl Hauser's widow's here.

160
00:10:35,408 --> 00:10:38,471
Straightforward standard release
Carl used for all his models.

161
00:10:38,578 --> 00:10:44,353
Lifetime of papers and contracts and you
managed to find mine. God bless the organized.

162
00:10:44,451 --> 00:10:48,187
- And there's no mistaking your signature.
- Oh!

163
00:10:54,196 --> 00:10:56,861
I'm so sorry.
It’s just here you are.

164
00:10:57,967 --> 00:11:01,931
- I mercy.
- He loves art.

165
00:11:02,038 --> 00:11:05,603
Marguerite, tam sorry,
but your husband was an adult...

166
00:11:05,710 --> 00:11:07,805
a famous man of the world...

167
00:11:07,912 --> 00:11:12,650
and I was an immature kid who did not
understand the document she was signing.

168
00:11:12,751 --> 00:11:15,450
There was no meeting
of the minds here.

169
00:11:15,555 --> 00:11:19,461
So this contract, I'm afraid,
is not binding.

170
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:23,193
As I recall, it wasn’t your minds that met.

171
00:11:27,234 --> 00:11:29,535
If you were old enough
to screw my husband...

172
00:11:29,638 --> 00:11:31,836
you were old enough
to understand what you were signing.

173
00:11:31,940 --> 00:11:35,311
Your husband talked me into
doing quite a few things I didn't understand.

174
00:11:35,411 --> 00:11:38,406
Tell me, why should I do
something nice for you?

175
00:11:38,514 --> 00:11:41,544
And don't say because you did
something nice for my husband.

176
00:11:41,652 --> 00:11:45,217
What do you intend
to do with the photos?

177
00:11:45,322 --> 00:11:50,356
Half of Carl's collection is already promised
to the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

178
00:11:50,461 --> 00:11:53,434
I intend to auction off the other half.
including those photos.

179
00:11:53,532 --> 00:11:56,630
Your pictures will be
going on the block.

180
00:12:04,345 --> 00:12:08,844
I need a favor, a very important,
vey personal favor.

181
00:12:08,950 --> 00:12:11,615
- Of course.
- After an extended absence...

182
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:17,063
I have recently reconnected
with my daughter, Rachel...

183
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:21,123
and I've learned that I have a beautiful
granddaughter named Fiona.

184
00:12:21,231 --> 00:12:23,725
Congratulations, Paul.

185
00:12:23,835 --> 00:12:26,636
My daughter
is a drug addict.

186
00:12:26,738 --> 00:12:31,545
Or at least she was. She says she's clean now,
but I have my suspicions.

187
00:12:31,644 --> 00:12:36,211
If she is using again, then my granddaughter
could be in danger.

188
00:12:36,315 --> 00:12:38,980
My specialty isn't family law,
but what I know-

189
00:12:39,085 --> 00:12:43,494
No, no. You misunderstand.
I don't want your legal advice.

190
00:12:43,591 --> 00:12:46,586
I want you to find out if my daughter
is using drugs again.

191
00:12:49,030 --> 00:12:53,267
Brad, if this year
has taught me anything...

192
00:12:53,369 --> 00:12:57,936
it's that you will get the job done
by any means necessary.

193
00:13:01,779 --> 00:13:06,517
I would never ask this of you
unless it was essential.

194
00:13:12,357 --> 00:13:15,228
Absolutely.
I'll do what I can.

195
00:13:30,412 --> 00:13:34,114
- What have you got?
- The 26th Amendment.

196
00:13:34,216 --> 00:13:38,180
Carl Hauser was taking naked pictures of me,
not denying me the vote.

197
00:13:38,288 --> 00:13:42,092
The 26th Amendment, which not only
extended the right to vote to 18-year-olds...

198
00:13:42,192 --> 00:13:45,188
but also persuaded the states to grant
them status as adults...

199
00:13:45,296 --> 00:13:48,166
was ratified in 1971.

200
00:13:48,266 --> 00:13:50,430
The photos
were taken in 1966...

201
00:13:50,536 --> 00:13:53,566
which, by the way,
is my new favorite year.

202
00:13:53,673 --> 00:13:56,702
And now mine as well.

203
00:13:56,810 --> 00:13:59,510
I wasn't 21 when I signed
that agreement.

204
00:13:59,613 --> 00:14:01,913
I was legally minor...

205
00:14:02,015 --> 00:14:04,384
and therefore can repudiate
the contract.

206
00:14:04,485 --> 00:14:07,356
And I am an idiot.
Why didn’t I think of this sooner?

207
00:14:07,456 --> 00:14:09,950
I'm going to credit
karma or Freud.

208
00:14:10,058 --> 00:14:14,193
Either way, it's because I was destined
to discover and revel in...

209
00:14:14,297 --> 00:14:19,035
the natural wonders
offal that is you.

210
00:14:34,721 --> 00:14:39,390
Uh, excuse me. I'm looking for some books
on addiction and recovery.

211
00:14:39,493 --> 00:14:42,432
Uh, yeah. They're in the self-help section
right over there.

212
00:14:42,530 --> 00:14:48,203
Thanks. Uh, is there, you know, one book
that's better than the others?

213
00:14:49,805 --> 00:14:51,708
This way.

214
00:14:55,478 --> 00:14:59,442
This one has some good advice
on the early stages when you're detuning...

215
00:14:59,550 --> 00:15:01,816
and all that
wonderful stuff.

216
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,291
And this one is really good for that time
right after you’ve stopped...

217
00:15:05,390 --> 00:15:08,590
when you're trying to figure out how
to put your life back together.

218
00:15:10,563 --> 00:15:12,465
Well, you know
a lot about this.

219
00:15:12,565 --> 00:15:15,732
Well, clean five years,
three months and seven days.

220
00:15:15,836 --> 00:15:19,571
It's hard. But when you're ready,
you can get there.

221
00:15:19,673 --> 00:15:21,735
- Thanks.
- Sure.

222
00:15:21,843 --> 00:15:26,012
Uh, what time
do you get off work?

223
00:15:26,114 --> 00:15:30,351
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm not coming on to you.
I was just hoping we could talk some more.

224
00:15:30,453 --> 00:15:33,084
I've sort of run out
of people to talk to.

225
00:15:33,189 --> 00:15:35,091
I get off at 7:OO.

226
00:15:35,192 --> 00:15:37,823
- Thanks.
- Sure. I'm Rachel.

227
00:15:37,929 --> 00:15:39,990
I'm Brad.
Pleased to meet you.

228
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,103
- You're buying those, right?
- Oh, right. Right.

229
00:15:54,614 --> 00:15:57,553
I, uh- I hang Sheetrock,
mostly for industrial buildings.

230
00:15:57,651 --> 00:16:00,452
A craftsman. He works with his hands.
Write that down.

231
00:16:01,322 --> 00:16:03,121
What else?

232
00:16:03,224 --> 00:16:07,997
I live alone. Jamaica Plain. My ex-wife
left me the house. It's not a bad neighborhood.

233
00:16:08,097 --> 00:16:10,500
But it does border one.
And it's vulnerable...

234
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,798
because I have those
old-fashioned lever windows.

235
00:16:12,903 --> 00:16:17,845
I can't afford an alarm system. I've been
broken into four times in the last two years.

236
00:16:17,942 --> 00:16:19,844
Drug addicts.
They take everything.

237
00:16:19,944 --> 00:16:23,679
They took myth, my bike,
my power tools, my guitar-

238
00:16:23,781 --> 00:16:26,309
Musician. He writes the songs-

239
00:16:26,418 --> 00:16:32,124
Uh, but what finally did it for me was when
I was building an end table for my father...

240
00:16:32,224 --> 00:16:36,222
for his television remote, his nebulizer,
because he has, uh, some asthma.

241
00:16:36,329 --> 00:16:39,199
And I'm halftone done,
and some guy breaks into the house...

242
00:16:39,300 --> 00:16:41,270
and he- and he steals
my table saw.

243
00:16:41,369 --> 00:16:43,863
My table saw!
I mean, that was it.

244
00:16:43,972 --> 00:16:47,036
That-That was all I could take.
I'm not into guns.

245
00:16:47,143 --> 00:16:49,045
Don't write that down.

246
00:16:49,145 --> 00:16:53,018
But I, u_ I knew that I-
I had to do something...

247
00:16:53,117 --> 00:16:55,520
so that's when I rigged up
my little system.

248
00:16:55,619 --> 00:16:58,352
Just a little jolt.
You know, send 'em a little shock.

249
00:16:58,455 --> 00:17:01,792
- Tell us what happened that night. You were at home?
- Yeah. I was awake actually.

250
00:17:01,893 --> 00:17:05,094
I was putting dishes away in the dishwasher
and I heard some noise on the porch.

251
00:17:05,198 --> 00:17:09,036
And I thought, "Here we go. This is it. "
So I moved into the living room.

252
00:17:09,136 --> 00:17:11,368
- So you saw him?
- Yeah. He was looking through the window.

253
00:17:11,470 --> 00:17:13,737
- He was a big wetback, you know?
- Latino.

254
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:15,776
Drug addict.
He was completely high.

255
00:17:15,876 --> 00:17:18,576
I could see it in his eyes,
even from inside the house.

256
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:22,711
- And then what happened?
- Well, he- he starts for the window.

257
00:17:22,818 --> 00:17:25,654
Now, I don't know if you’ve ever
seen anyone on crystal meth...

258
00:17:25,754 --> 00:17:28,123
or acid or, I don't know,
whatever this guy was on.

259
00:17:28,225 --> 00:17:32,894
But, you know, they're big and they're ugly,
and they feel like they're invincible.

260
00:17:32,996 --> 00:17:37,165
So he starts tying to pie open the window
with a screwdriver or something.

261
00:17:37,267 --> 00:17:40,901
And, uh, well, that was it.

262
00:17:42,908 --> 00:17:46,109
The electricity went up
the screwdriver into his body.

263
00:17:46,212 --> 00:17:49,447
- He- He completed the circuit.
- Sounds horrible.

264
00:17:49,549 --> 00:17:52,316
Honestly, you know, it wasn't.
I mean, watching this guy, it was-

265
00:17:52,418 --> 00:17:55,914
It was like watching every guy who
broke into my house over the years...

266
00:17:56,023 --> 00:17:58,085
and took from me-
stole my stuff.

267
00:17:58,193 --> 00:18:00,630
I mean, he was just getting
what he deserved, right?

268
00:18:00,729 --> 00:18:05,798
Let me tell you the most unbelievable thing.
Did you know that when you get electrocuted...

269
00:18:05,901 --> 00:18:08,999
you know, your blood literally
boils right inside the veins?

270
00:18:09,106 --> 00:18:12,010
That's how the electricity
flows through your body, through your veins.

271
00:18:12,109 --> 00:18:14,808
And so here's this guy.
He's a wetback.

272
00:18:14,912 --> 00:18:18,875
But I could see his veins
are glowing through his skin...

273
00:18:18,983 --> 00:18:21,854
as he was being charred
from the inside out.

274
00:18:21,954 --> 00:18:25,792
And I- I could smell
his flesh burning, which was weird.

275
00:18:25,891 --> 00:18:27,919
It smelled like a roast...

276
00:18:28,028 --> 00:18:31,057
a well-deserved cooked roast.

277
00:18:31,165 --> 00:18:34,296
That's when I, you know, finally
turned off the electricity.

278
00:18:34,401 --> 00:18:36,338
When he was good and done.

279
00:18:51,521 --> 00:18:53,583
So much for putting
our hero on the stand.

280
00:18:53,691 --> 00:18:55,718
Oh, he's on
the stand all right.

281
00:18:55,826 --> 00:18:57,763
Denny, with all due respect...

282
00:18:57,862 --> 00:19:01,233
the man was practically wearing a bib
with a knife and fork in each hand...

283
00:19:01,334 --> 00:19:03,999
- as he was telling that story.
- Denise, never give up an option.

284
00:19:04,103 --> 00:19:07,440
The man was alit with passion,
the kind of passion that moves juries.

285
00:19:07,540 --> 00:19:10,068
- So?
- So we tell his story.

286
00:19:10,177 --> 00:19:13,480
Not necessarily all his story,
but the part we want to tell.

287
00:19:13,580 --> 00:19:16,074
We're the ones creating
the narrative.

288
00:19:31,736 --> 00:19:35,403
- Are you kidding?
- Were you kidding about wanting to get straight?

289
00:19:35,506 --> 00:19:37,704
No.

290
00:19:42,215 --> 00:19:44,709
Thank you, Patrick.
Keep coming' back, buddy.

291
00:19:44,817 --> 00:19:47,550
Um, are there any other
new members here today?

292
00:19:52,025 --> 00:19:54,553
Brad?
Would you like to share?

293
00:19:54,661 --> 00:19:57,258
Uh, no.
I'm new.

294
00:19:57,366 --> 00:20:00,099
It'll make you feel better.

295
00:20:00,202 --> 00:20:02,331
Right, uh-

296
00:20:05,041 --> 00:20:07,808
- Hi, uh-
- Say your name.

297
00:20:10,415 --> 00:20:13,148
- I'm Brad. I'm a drug addict.
- Hi, Brad.

298
00:20:13,251 --> 00:20:16,656
I'm not used to talking
in public.

299
00:20:16,754 --> 00:20:20,422
Well, actually I am.
Just not talking about myself.

300
00:20:24,397 --> 00:20:27,461
Wow. You’re just going
to let me keep going.

301
00:20:27,567 --> 00:20:31,439
Okay. I was
in the Marine Corps...

302
00:20:31,539 --> 00:20:34,032
during the first Gulf War,
Operation Desert Storm.

303
00:20:34,142 --> 00:20:38,516
February 24, 1991, I was a lieutenant
in the Second Reconnaissance Battalion...

304
00:20:38,613 --> 00:20:41,141
of the First Marine
Expeditionary Force.

305
00:20:41,250 --> 00:20:44,120
And under enemy mortar, artillery
and small-arms fire...

306
00:20:44,220 --> 00:20:49,129
we breached mine fields, trenches
barbed wire, and disabled six enemy divisions.

307
00:20:49,226 --> 00:20:52,631
By the morning of the 28th, 1 OO hours
after the ground operations had begun...

308
00:20:52,729 --> 00:20:55,702
our coalition forces had
destroyed 42 enemy divisions.

309
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,707
That's the bulk of the Iraqi army
in the Kuwaiti the ater of operations.

310
00:21:05,479 --> 00:21:08,418
So, then I started
using drugs.

311
00:21:22,765 --> 00:21:25,999
Denny, you're shiny
and in a wedge.

312
00:21:26,102 --> 00:21:28,005
My team, Alan.

313
00:21:28,105 --> 00:21:30,439
I'm backend I'm feeling it.

314
00:21:30,541 --> 00:21:32,477
I realized a truth
about myself.

315
00:21:32,576 --> 00:21:36,642
I just love... power.

316
00:21:36,748 --> 00:21:38,775
I t seems to have
a thing for you as well.

317
00:21:38,884 --> 00:21:40,855
It's my natural state.
It's my homeostasis.

318
00:21:40,953 --> 00:21:42,923
Don't read anything
into that remark.

319
00:21:43,022 --> 00:21:44,993
I already did.

320
00:21:49,897 --> 00:21:52,095
God, grant me the serenity...

321
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,104
to accept the things
I cannot change...

322
00:21:55,203 --> 00:21:58,108
the courage to change
the things I can...

323
00:21:58,207 --> 00:22:00,268
and the wisdom
to know the difference.

324
00:22:00,377 --> 00:22:03,110
It works if you work it,
so work it!

325
00:22:03,213 --> 00:22:05,946
Sera soon.

326
00:22:06,049 --> 00:22:08,213
Good-bye.

327
00:22:08,319 --> 00:22:10,551
- That was wonderful.
- Thank you.

328
00:22:10,655 --> 00:22:14,060
- Take care of yourself.
- I sure will.

329
00:22:18,997 --> 00:22:22,961
- That was a nice story.
- Uh, thanks.

330
00:22:23,069 --> 00:22:24,936
Too bad it was a lie.

331
00:22:26,941 --> 00:22:28,934
I won the war,
then started using?

332
00:22:29,043 --> 00:22:31,480
I've been coming to these meetings
every day for five years.

333
00:22:31,580 --> 00:22:34,519
If you didn't want to share your problems,
you should’ve just passed.

334
00:22:34,616 --> 00:22:37,987
Oh. Well, sharing's
not really my thing.

335
00:22:38,087 --> 00:22:40,114
It's probably
oust how I was raised.

336
00:22:40,222 --> 00:22:44,927
- Doesn't mean you can't change. I was raised the same way.
- Really?

337
00:22:45,028 --> 00:22:48,057
Yeah. My mother was warm,
but my father...

338
00:22:48,166 --> 00:22:52,266
kept every emotion tightly tucked away
in his suit pocket, right next to his watch.

339
00:22:52,370 --> 00:22:55,605
- It's not always that easy to open up.
- Ah, but it is.

340
00:22:55,707 --> 00:22:57,905
You just say
what's on your mind.

341
00:22:58,010 --> 00:23:00,675
Instead, my dad-
always the attorney.

342
00:23:00,779 --> 00:23:02,807
He’d just sit back
and play little games...

343
00:23:02,916 --> 00:23:05,353
ferreting out information
with these obtuse questions.

344
00:23:05,453 --> 00:23:09,223
And on the rare occasion
when he would open up and talk to me...

345
00:23:09,323 --> 00:23:11,851
he wasn't happy unless I told him
what he wanted to hear.

346
00:23:11,959 --> 00:23:16,959
You know, being him-
I think it's a hard way to live.

347
00:23:17,065 --> 00:23:19,332
I'm sorry.

348
00:23:21,605 --> 00:23:24,202
And I'm sorry-

349
00:23:24,308 --> 00:23:28,807
- Buy me a cup of coffee, and I might forgive you.
- Great.

350
00:23:36,989 --> 00:23:40,724
And therefore, at age 19,
Ms. Schmidt was in fact a minor.

351
00:23:40,826 --> 00:23:43,993
There was no parental
consent here, so, in essence...

352
00:23:44,097 --> 00:23:48,198
your husband was illegally taking
nude photographs of an underage girl.

353
00:23:49,771 --> 00:23:51,604
You make a legitimate
argument, Mr. Shore.

354
00:23:51,706 --> 00:23:55,738
Not my favorite kind, but I'm glad to play
for that team when necessary.

355
00:23:55,844 --> 00:23:58,543
You can certainly take us to court
and fight this battle with that argument.

356
00:23:58,648 --> 00:24:01,449
- We will if we have to.
- However, I believe your goal...

357
00:24:01,551 --> 00:24:03,454
was to get these photos
out of the public eye.

358
00:24:03,554 --> 00:24:06,253
I'm afraid, with a court battle-
a very public court battle-

359
00:24:06,357 --> 00:24:08,259
these photos could
find their way to the press.

360
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,853
Before that could happen,
of course, we'd ask the court...

361
00:24:10,961 --> 00:24:14,629
to seal all exhibits and issue an appropriate
gag order to prevent disclosure.

362
00:24:14,733 --> 00:24:18,571
And you'd win, but you know what? Thanks to
the Internet, winning doesn't matter anymore.

363
00:24:18,671 --> 00:24:21,803
These photos could somehow find their way
onto the Web and all around the world.

364
00:24:21,908 --> 00:24:24,710
And then where would you be?

365
00:24:25,879 --> 00:24:29,250
Marguerite.

366
00:24:34,856 --> 00:24:37,590
Marguerite.

367
00:24:40,597 --> 00:24:42,499
Oh, I'll be right out.

368
00:24:42,599 --> 00:24:44,502
Alan.

369
00:24:56,349 --> 00:24:58,114
I'm sorry.

370
00:24:59,919 --> 00:25:02,185
- Thank you.
- Marguerite.

371
00:25:05,392 --> 00:25:07,556
Those pictures.

372
00:25:07,662 --> 00:25:09,632
I have grandchildren.

373
00:25:09,731 --> 00:25:14,139
The thought of them
seeing those photographs-

374
00:25:14,237 --> 00:25:16,366
I understand.

375
00:25:20,176 --> 00:25:22,579
I'm sorry.

376
00:25:32,558 --> 00:25:36,157
Your Honor, Mr. Dominguez's prior burglary
convictions and history of drug abuse...

377
00:25:36,262 --> 00:25:39,827
have no bearing on whether the defendant
improperly electrified his home.

378
00:25:39,933 --> 00:25:42,564
Nonsense. This felon was higher
than a kite when he got zapped.

379
00:25:42,670 --> 00:25:47,044
He has six prior convictions for larceny,
burglary, grand theft auto.

380
00:25:47,141 --> 00:25:50,478
- Of course it's relevant. - The prejudicial
effect of the victim's criminal activity-

381
00:25:50,579 --> 00:25:52,481
Your Honor, my client
is the victim here.

382
00:25:52,581 --> 00:25:56,386
clearly outweighs any probative value
such evidence would have for the jury.

383
00:25:56,486 --> 00:25:58,547
Enough.
Mr. Ginsberg is right.

384
00:25:58,656 --> 00:26:02,357
The evidence is highly prejudicial
and will be barred at trial.

385
00:26:02,459 --> 00:26:06,867
Mr. Crane, you may not
bring up Mr. Dominguez's prior bad acts...

386
00:26:06,964 --> 00:26:09,903
unless the door to impeachment
has been opened.

387
00:26:13,706 --> 00:26:15,768
Before answering
any questions...

388
00:26:15,875 --> 00:26:18,243
I want to thank my client,
Miguel Dominguez...

389
00:26:18,345 --> 00:26:20,247
for bravely agreeing
to be here today.

390
00:26:20,347 --> 00:26:23,946
Mr. Dominguez suffers
from severe paralysis...

391
00:26:24,051 --> 00:26:25,954
and a host of other
debilitating symptoms...

392
00:26:26,054 --> 00:26:28,047
as the result
of his electrocution.

393
00:26:28,156 --> 00:26:32,598
Nevertheless, he is here today
to stand up for all of us...

394
00:26:32,695 --> 00:26:36,066
to help in the fight
to make our count ya safer place-

395
00:26:36,165 --> 00:26:41,131
a place where citizens do not take
the law into their own hands.

396
00:26:41,238 --> 00:26:44,872
Mr. Dominguez is an inspiration
to his community.

397
00:26:44,976 --> 00:26:47,948
He is a hero.

398
00:26:48,045 --> 00:26:49,948
Thank you.

399
00:26:50,048 --> 00:26:52,611
That bastard stole my story.

400
00:27:04,733 --> 00:27:07,296
- What about branding?
- I haven't branded yet.

401
00:27:07,402 --> 00:27:09,395
No branding?

402
00:27:09,504 --> 00:27:12,272
- Denny.
- Denny.

403
00:27:12,375 --> 00:27:15,142
Uh, Denise Bauer, Candy Springtime.
Public relations.

404
00:27:15,244 --> 00:27:17,111
- Hello.
- Hi.

405
00:27:17,214 --> 00:27:22,156
She's with Shirking Thompson, the same firm
the government uses, so you know she's good.

406
00:27:22,252 --> 00:27:25,920
Denise, we're rolling out a new campaign
to take back the story on Mr. Blarney.

407
00:27:26,024 --> 00:27:30,022
- Yeah-Take back the story? - Denny
tells me that you haven't branded him yet.

408
00:27:30,129 --> 00:27:32,862
So I took the initiative
and created a brand.

409
00:27:32,965 --> 00:27:35,630
Russell Blarney-
American homeowner.

410
00:27:35,735 --> 00:27:37,831
American homeowner?

411
00:27:37,939 --> 00:27:39,932
- Simple. It's to the point.
- And cozy.

412
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,136
Say it for me, Denny.
Press conference voice.

413
00:27:42,243 --> 00:27:45,272
Russell Blarney, American homeowner.
Wait a minute.

414
00:27:45,379 --> 00:27:48,979
American homeowner Russell Blarney.
See? It works both ways. Versatile.

415
00:27:49,084 --> 00:27:52,956
But dowel really think
that we need to label Mr. Blarney?

416
00:27:53,055 --> 00:27:54,958
Denny?

417
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,855
Uh, Denise. Rodney King.

418
00:27:58,963 --> 00:28:01,457
Rodney King. Uh-

419
00:28:01,565 --> 00:28:04,333
Severely beaten by the police
over 1 O years ago.

420
00:28:04,436 --> 00:28:05,870
See? You remember.
Why? Branding.

421
00:28:05,972 --> 00:28:09,878
They didn’t call him Rodney King-
wife beater, alcohol abuser...

422
00:28:09,976 --> 00:28:13,074
who swung a tire iron
at a convenience store clerk.

423
00:28:13,179 --> 00:28:16,175
They called him Rodney King, motorist.
Or motorist Rodney King.

424
00:28:16,283 --> 00:28:19,517
Brings to mind images
of jaunty man...

425
00:28:19,620 --> 00:28:21,988
in a riding hat and cap
in a Model "T."

426
00:28:22,089 --> 00:28:25,256
That's what we want.
Russell Blarney, American homeowner.

427
00:28:25,360 --> 00:28:29,665
- Not Russell Blarney, eats 'em broiled, baked or fried.
- But Rodney King was beaten.

428
00:28:29,765 --> 00:28:31,998
Okay. Now this
is just a mock-up.

429
00:28:32,101 --> 00:28:36,509
Obviously, we will replace
Jimmy Stewart with Mr. Blarney.

430
00:28:36,606 --> 00:28:41,915
But the banner can and should be
behind you every press conference, Denny.

431
00:28:42,014 --> 00:28:44,611
Notice I used the same font
as "Mission Accomplished. "

432
00:28:44,716 --> 00:28:46,914
Americans are comfortable
with that font.

433
00:28:47,020 --> 00:28:49,047
We will send B-roll
form. Blarney to the press...

434
00:28:49,154 --> 00:28:52,218
working in his garage, using his table saw,
working with his power tools-

435
00:28:52,325 --> 00:28:54,227
fixing things
around the house.

436
00:28:54,327 --> 00:28:57,926
And as fares the talking points-
Keep it simple, Denny.

437
00:28:58,033 --> 00:29:01,267
Speak of the opposition
as "the drug-crazed intruder"...

438
00:29:01,368 --> 00:29:04,034
the incident as
"the harrowing home invasion. "

439
00:29:04,139 --> 00:29:07,111
I know you’re tight with Larry King,
but we are negotiating...

440
00:29:07,208 --> 00:29:10,306
with Nightline, Hardball,
_n_ The Daily Show.

441
00:29:10,413 --> 00:29:12,543
That's good!

442
00:29:12,649 --> 00:29:14,744
That is where most Americans
get their news.

443
00:29:19,357 --> 00:29:22,352
- There's no way we’re going to win this, is there?
- Legally-yes, there is.

444
00:29:22,460 --> 00:29:24,693
As for accomplishing
your goals- no.

445
00:29:24,797 --> 00:29:27,200
But when you have occasion
to ask for my help, Shirley...

446
00:29:27,299 --> 00:29:30,396
typically, it's not really
legal help you’re looking for.

447
00:29:30,503 --> 00:29:32,473
I'll assume
this is no exception.

448
00:29:32,572 --> 00:29:35,977
Alan, I've already caused Marguerite Hauser
as much pain as I care to.

449
00:29:36,077 --> 00:29:39,244
I'll leave the creativity to you.
Just don't hurt her.

450
00:29:40,782 --> 00:29:43,184
America's under siege.

451
00:29:43,285 --> 00:29:46,121
Not from Saddam
or pro-terrorists...

452
00:29:46,221 --> 00:29:49,820
but from namby-pamby
pro-burglay advocates...

453
00:29:49,926 --> 00:29:53,297
who want to strip us
of the right to protect what's ours.

454
00:29:53,396 --> 00:29:57,862
- That's what our-
- Looks like Denny's being Denny.

455
00:29:57,969 --> 00:30:00,166
He's "creating the reality. "

456
00:30:00,270 --> 00:30:03,641
I doubt many people would want
to live in Denny's reality.

457
00:30:03,741 --> 00:30:07,182
All I know is there are
two rotten guys in this case...

458
00:30:07,279 --> 00:30:10,719
and both sides are tying
to make theirs as the hero.

459
00:30:10,817 --> 00:30:12,719
If you’ve got a problem
with this case...

460
00:30:12,819 --> 00:30:15,188
I suggest you talk to the guy
whose name is on the door.

461
00:30:15,288 --> 00:30:19,229
I'm not naive, Paul. I know this kind
of manipulation goes on all the time.

462
00:30:19,327 --> 00:30:21,992
But I'm an attorney,
not a spin doctor.

463
00:30:22,097 --> 00:30:25,127
Oh, yes, you are.
We all are.

464
00:30:25,234 --> 00:30:25,234
That's what attorneys d_ tell stories,
create characters, capture an audience...

465
00:30:28,138 --> 00:30:29,835
That's what attorneys d_ tell stories,
create characters, capture an audience...

466
00:30:29,939 --> 00:30:32,935
tee and make 'em feel
what we want 'em to feel.

467
00:30:33,043 --> 00:30:35,013
That's good layering.

468
00:30:35,112 --> 00:30:38,244
Only these days, everybody’s tying
to get in on our act-

469
00:30:38,349 --> 00:30:40,251
the government,
corporations.

470
00:30:40,351 --> 00:30:44,053
There are no facts anymore, kiddo,
only good or bad fiction.

471
00:30:44,157 --> 00:30:47,824
Which story...
do you plan to sell the jury?

472
00:30:47,927 --> 00:30:50,091
Don’t you worry.

473
00:30:50,196 --> 00:30:54,034
This case will never
go to trial.

474
00:31:00,608 --> 00:31:04,070
Mr. Shore, with all due respect,
you are on our last nerve.

475
00:31:04,180 --> 00:31:06,174
You said you had
an intriguing offer.

476
00:31:06,282 --> 00:31:08,514
- Get to it.
- Delighted.

477
00:31:08,617 --> 00:31:12,183
first, how about we ask all the lawyers
to leave the room?

478
00:31:12,289 --> 00:31:14,555
- You're a lawyer.
- Okay.

479
00:31:14,659 --> 00:31:17,722
How about all the lawyers
who aren't me?

480
00:31:23,168 --> 00:31:25,868
Here it is then.

481
00:31:25,972 --> 00:31:28,307
Simply put,
it's Shirley Schmidt.

482
00:31:28,408 --> 00:31:32,782
As much as I admire
and respect her...

483
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,077
if don't resolve
this case...

484
00:31:35,183 --> 00:31:38,645
I'm afraid she'll get nervous
and fall back on old habits.

485
00:31:38,753 --> 00:31:42,193
She'll call in the old guard, one of
the cronies in Banking and Finance-

486
00:31:42,290 --> 00:31:44,487
someone who smells
like old pipe smoke and hair tonic...

487
00:31:44,594 --> 00:31:49,093
someone with a florid nose from too many
old-fashioned at lunch down the street.

488
00:31:49,199 --> 00:31:52,035
And this fell, whoever he is,
will have friends-

489
00:31:52,135 --> 00:31:55,074
friends who work in banks
who probably shouldn't...

490
00:31:55,173 --> 00:31:58,237
who don't treat confidential information
very confidentially.

491
00:31:58,343 --> 00:32:02,283
And then, Marguerite, the old crony
will discover how deeply in debt you are.

492
00:32:02,380 --> 00:32:04,180
And once he learns this...

493
00:32:04,283 --> 00:32:07,255
my replacement will make a few
phone calls, write a few letters...

494
00:32:07,353 --> 00:32:09,950
and seek out your husband's
most distant and forgotten relative.

495
00:32:10,056 --> 00:32:12,254
Perhaps
a less-fortunate cousin n...

496
00:32:12,359 --> 00:32:15,764
who always admired but could never afford
one of your husband's beautiful artworks.

497
00:32:15,863 --> 00:32:18,494
And my replacement will reach out
to him and commiserate...

498
00:32:18,599 --> 00:32:20,593
and convince him to contest
your husband's will...

499
00:32:20,702 --> 00:32:22,695
at which point your husband's estate
will be tied up-

500
00:32:22,804 --> 00:32:25,173
Well, it could be for years,
decades really.

501
00:32:25,275 --> 00:32:28,977
And if this replacement of mine turns out
to be this fell I'm thinking of...

502
00:32:29,079 --> 00:32:32,108
it could get really ugly.

503
00:32:32,216 --> 00:32:36,818
For such a vague man, you've been
extraordinarily clear, Mr. Shore.

504
00:32:36,921 --> 00:32:39,153
Yes, and here's the thing.

505
00:32:39,258 --> 00:32:43,096
I just don't like the way these people operate
around here. It’s just not right.

506
00:32:43,195 --> 00:32:45,826
These photographs are yours
to do with what you please.

507
00:32:45,931 --> 00:32:48,061
And you should get
a fair market price.

508
00:32:48,168 --> 00:32:53,510
So, before I simply give up
and call it a day...

509
00:32:54,609 --> 00:32:57,410
I'd like to ask you
one question.

510
00:32:59,647 --> 00:33:01,743
And what is that?

511
00:33:03,085 --> 00:33:04,988
What is your price?

512
00:33:19,671 --> 00:33:22,165
So you made contact
with Rachel?

513
00:33:22,275 --> 00:33:25,578
I did. I told her
I was a drug addict.

514
00:33:25,678 --> 00:33:27,739
And?

515
00:33:27,847 --> 00:33:29,750
She took me to a Narcotics
Anonymous meeting...

516
00:33:29,850 --> 00:33:33,290
told me that if wanted to get clean
that I needed to work the program.

517
00:33:33,387 --> 00:33:35,550
So she's no longer using?

518
00:33:35,657 --> 00:33:38,093
No. She's been clean
for five years.

519
00:33:38,194 --> 00:33:41,725
She's calm, rational,
straight forward.

520
00:33:41,831 --> 00:33:44,166
Very down-to-earth,
as a matter of fact.

521
00:33:45,534 --> 00:33:48,335
Fine. Thank you, Brad.

522
00:33:50,841 --> 00:33:52,937
You know, Paul,
for what it's worth...

523
00:33:53,044 --> 00:33:55,139
she really wants to have
a relationship with you.

524
00:33:55,247 --> 00:33:57,912
- And I with her.
- And you know what might help...

525
00:33:58,016 --> 00:34:00,579
is if you showed her
a little faith.

526
00:34:00,686 --> 00:34:04,057
- She might pick up on that.
- I beg your pardon?

527
00:34:04,157 --> 00:34:07,961
Well, she says that sometimes
you can be vey... judgmental.

528
00:34:08,062 --> 00:34:10,898
Brad, while your efforts
are fully appreciated...

529
00:34:10,998 --> 00:34:13,994
your advice to a father
concerning his daughter is not.

530
00:34:14,102 --> 00:34:18,236
You have no idea the years I've spent dealing
with my daughter’s illness.

531
00:34:18,341 --> 00:34:21,803
So it would behoove you
to be more circumspect.

532
00:34:21,911 --> 00:34:26,580
Sorry.
That was over the line.

533
00:34:26,682 --> 00:34:29,587
Hey, Paul, the truth is you've got a really-
a hell oaf daughter.

534
00:34:29,686 --> 00:34:32,214
She's sweet.
She's beautiful.

535
00:34:32,323 --> 00:34:34,817
Nothing rattles her.
Even when she lost hear. T. M. card.

536
00:34:34,926 --> 00:34:37,762
I would've panicked,
but she was really cool.

537
00:34:37,862 --> 00:34:43,239
- What are you talking about?
- Rachel's lost hear. T. M. card, so I loaned her 40 bucks.

538
00:35:04,928 --> 00:35:09,370
- Dad.
- I had a lunch meeting nearby.

539
00:35:09,467 --> 00:35:12,736
How vey impromptu of you
and unusual.

540
00:35:12,837 --> 00:35:17,040
Yes, well
people can change.

541
00:35:17,142 --> 00:35:19,670
Yes, they can.

542
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,717
Come on in.

543
00:35:26,587 --> 00:35:29,821
- Can I get you something to drink?
- No, no. I-

544
00:35:29,923 --> 00:35:33,864
I thought I would take Fiona
to the aquarium if that’s all right with you.

545
00:35:33,962 --> 00:35:37,527
Yeah. I pick her up
from day care in 20 minutes.

546
00:35:37,632 --> 00:35:41,072
- Oh. I'll go with you.
- Sure.

547
00:35:44,474 --> 00:35:46,843
May I use your bathroom?

548
00:35:46,943 --> 00:35:49,005
Through there.

549
00:36:33,265 --> 00:36:37,673
You have a child.
A child!

550
00:36:37,770 --> 00:36:39,296
- This is my house.
- How long?

551
00:36:39,406 --> 00:36:41,308
- You set me up? Give me that.
- You will not ruin her!

552
00:36:41,408 --> 00:36:44,973
You have ruined everything and everyone
you've ever come in contact with!

553
00:36:45,078 --> 00:36:47,744
- I hate you.
- You will not do this to my granddaughter!

554
00:36:47,848 --> 00:36:50,615
I hate you! Bastard!

555
00:36:57,126 --> 00:37:01,362
- Is counsel prepared to begin void dire?
- We are, Your Honor.

556
00:37:01,465 --> 00:37:04,335
The Commonwealth may begin.

557
00:37:07,472 --> 00:37:11,641
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.
I'm Assistant District Attorney Ginsberg.

558
00:37:11,743 --> 00:37:14,476
Now, as we begin to pick
our potential jury members...

559
00:37:14,580 --> 00:37:16,311
I just want to know
a bit about you.

560
00:37:16,415 --> 00:37:18,317
First off. by show of hands...

561
00:37:18,417 --> 00:37:22,222
how many of you have heard
about this case in the news?

562
00:37:22,322 --> 00:37:27,322
I see. And how many of you have seen opposing
counsel, Denny Crane, on the news?

563
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,964
Juror Number Seven, can you tell us
what opinions you've formed?

564
00:37:36,071 --> 00:37:38,702
I think people should be
allowed to defend their homes.

565
00:37:38,807 --> 00:37:40,333
Like Mr. Crane said...

566
00:37:40,443 --> 00:37:43,348
if the guy didn’t wanna get hurt,
he shouldn't have been robbing anyone.

567
00:37:43,447 --> 00:37:47,353
- Commonwealth challenges Juror Number Seven for cause.
- No objection, Your Honor.

568
00:37:47,451 --> 00:37:50,322
Juror Number Seven,
you are excused.

569
00:37:51,790 --> 00:37:53,817
I've worked hard to become
an American homeowner.

570
00:37:53,925 --> 00:37:55,554
If the guy tried to break
into my place-

571
00:37:55,662 --> 00:37:58,156
- I'd do the same thing.
- I'd wanna kill the son of bitch.

572
00:37:58,264 --> 00:37:59,733
It's my right
as an American homeowner.

573
00:37:59,832 --> 00:38:03,363
I live in an apartment, but I consider myself
an American homeowner.

574
00:38:03,470 --> 00:38:05,737
- American homeowner.
- American homeowner.

575
00:38:05,839 --> 00:38:08,436
- American homeowner.
- American homeowner.

576
00:38:08,543 --> 00:38:10,605
God bless America.

577
00:38:10,712 --> 00:38:13,377
Your Honor, with his
television appearances and theatrics...

578
00:38:13,482 --> 00:38:15,418
Mr. Crane has tainted the jury pool...

579
00:38:15,518 --> 00:38:18,389
to such an extent that the Commonwealth
moves for change of venue.

580
00:38:18,488 --> 00:38:20,287
Denied, Mr. Ginsberg.

581
00:38:20,390 --> 00:38:24,263
You both have manipulated
the media coverage of this case.

582
00:38:24,362 --> 00:38:27,095
Only. Crane has done
a better job obit.

583
00:38:27,198 --> 00:38:29,761
You will play in the sandbox
that you built.

584
00:38:42,717 --> 00:38:45,747
Shirley, Blondie, join me.

585
00:38:47,322 --> 00:38:49,485
I'm happy
to inform you...

586
00:38:49,591 --> 00:38:52,826
there's going to be a plea bargain
in the American Homeowner case.

587
00:38:52,928 --> 00:38:54,659
How do you know?

588
00:38:54,763 --> 00:38:58,795
Today, my office has indicted
City Councilman Adam Patrick...

589
00:38:58,901 --> 00:39:02,170
on charges of accepting bribes
and illegal campaign contributions.

590
00:39:02,272 --> 00:39:04,800
He has agreed to surrender
at his arraignment.

591
00:39:04,908 --> 00:39:09,282
He's changing the narrative.
We’re yesterday’s news.

592
00:39:09,380 --> 00:39:11,874
You got to hand it to him.
The guy's good. He's creating his next reality.

593
00:39:11,983 --> 00:39:14,284
- I wonder what he's going to put on the table.
- No jail time.

594
00:39:14,386 --> 00:39:17,416
- How can you be so sure?
- Years of experience.

595
00:39:17,524 --> 00:39:19,426
And he called
a half an hour ago.

596
00:39:26,769 --> 00:39:29,639
What are you going to do with those?

597
00:39:30,973 --> 00:39:33,877
I haven't decided.
You know the one...

598
00:39:33,976 --> 00:39:36,140
where you’re not quite sure
what you’re looking at...

599
00:39:36,246 --> 00:39:40,551
then you take a step back
and realize what it is?

600
00:39:40,651 --> 00:39:42,553
That one may be going
in the powder room.

601
00:39:42,653 --> 00:39:44,179
- Alan.
- Tell you what.

602
00:39:44,288 --> 00:39:46,418
I'll leave them to you
when I die.

603
00:39:46,525 --> 00:39:50,295
As things stand,
I'm quite sure I'll pass on before you.

604
00:39:50,395 --> 00:39:53,698
Show those pictures to anyone,
and I'll see to it myself.

605
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:56,796
Shirley, I have no intention
of sharing those with anyone.

606
00:39:56,903 --> 00:40:00,240
I'm keeping you all to myself.
I give you my word.

607
00:40:00,340 --> 00:40:04,873
You're one of the few people
for whom I know that to be true.

608
00:40:06,816 --> 00:40:08,409
Thank you.

609
00:40:08,517 --> 00:40:11,387
No. Thank you.

610
00:40:29,541 --> 00:40:31,910
I understand congratulations
are in order.

611
00:40:32,010 --> 00:40:35,245
Never lost. Never will.

612
00:40:35,348 --> 00:40:38,047
I may not be
the Denny Crane I once was...

613
00:40:38,151 --> 00:40:40,213
but, until today,
I didn't realize...

614
00:40:40,321 --> 00:40:43,761
that this Denny Crane
might be even better.

615
00:40:43,859 --> 00:40:47,526
Opposing lawyers eve here
are quaking in their custom-fitted shoes.

616
00:40:47,629 --> 00:40:50,659
Damn right they are.
So who cares if she-

617
00:40:52,368 --> 00:40:54,896
Who cares?

618
00:40:55,004 --> 00:40:56,906
You're still upset
about Bev.

619
00:40:57,006 --> 00:40:58,909
What I don't understand is-

620
00:40:59,009 --> 00:41:02,278
I was married to one of my wives for five years.
Got over her in a day.

621
00:41:02,380 --> 00:41:05,751
Bev and I were married
for three hours, and yet-

622
00:41:05,851 --> 00:41:07,548
And yet?

623
00:41:07,653 --> 00:41:12,892
Do you know that I even
have memories other that aren't sexual?

624
00:41:12,992 --> 00:41:14,825
I'm sure you do.

625
00:41:14,927 --> 00:41:17,262
I miss her.

626
00:41:18,532 --> 00:41:20,434
I miss her.

627
00:41:22,436 --> 00:41:24,669
Well, are the rumors true?

628
00:41:24,773 --> 00:41:26,675
You have naked photos
of Shirley?

629
00:41:28,043 --> 00:41:30,343
Aw, come on.
What's the big deal?

630
00:41:30,446 --> 00:41:34,386
I've had naked photos
of Shirley for years.

631
00:41:41,091 --> 00:41:43,688
Denny, she's asleep
in all these.

632
00:41:43,795 --> 00:41:46,666
Here's one
where she woke up.

633
00:41:48,266 --> 00:41:53,005
Have you ever seen
a beautiful naked woman...

634
00:41:53,105 --> 00:41:55,007
look that angry?

635
00:42:44,299 --> 00:42:46,930
You stinker!
