is right back there.

Damien, be a dear, will you,

and get me a cup of coffee?

I'm only one person.

I'm sorry,

I can't wear this.

Oh, look at the gross

national product.

After inflation, you know,

you gotta remember that.

We gotta go back

to the gold standard.

How you doing?

Hi, how are you?

Yo.

Yeah.

I don't know about this.

I've heard those ladies

can get pretty rough.

Come on, it's a job.

With women, what can happen?

Since most of you

gentlemen are not strangers

to this court,

you know exactly

what kind of behavior

I will tolerate.

Any breach of courtroom

protocol will receive

the maximum penalty.

Am I understood?

Okay, let's get this

over with.

We'll start at this end.

Approach the bench

and state your case.

What are you doing here?

I set fire to my family.

Jesus Christ,

he set fire to his family.

Oh, my God! Oh!

How you doing?

I don't know. I don't think

I'm doing too good.

Right. Listen,

you got any ludes?

What?

Ludes.

Shut up! The guy's a cop.

How about some reefer?

Just relax, will you?

Toot! You got any toot?

Listen, I'm freaking out!

I'm not gonna make it.

Get out of my pocket!

Look, we're all

freaking out, here!

Just relax, will you?

Get some control of yourself.

Think positive,

you'll be all right.

All right.

This guy over here, he just

set fire to his entire family

for God's sakes!

Just don't look at him.

Be quiet! Just relax.

You all right?

Great.

Think positive.

I'm right here if you need me.

Easy.

Where did

our public defender go?

Right here, Your Honor.

Oh, my God!

Think positive.

You don't even

know the case.

I know the law.

Don't you...

Would you like to consult

with your client?

I would like

a change of venue.

Denied. Proceed.

Your Honor, then I request

a summary dismissal.

Can you support that motion?

Yes, indeed, I can.

There are thousands

of criminals roaming

all over the streets

just as guilty as my client.

Why pick on him?

What the hell are you saying?

I know what I'm doing.

Motion denied.

Your Honor, I would

very much like to have

another lawyer, please,

because this one is not

to my satisfaction.

And I would feel that...

Your Honor, I would like you

to disqualify yourself.

On what grounds?

On the grounds that

you've got a bad attitude.

Bad attitude?

Denied!

Counselor?

Okay.

May we approach

the bench, please?

Yes.

Don't blow this!

Don't, don't worry.

Your Honor, may we speak

off the record here?

The proceedings so far

are rather pressing.

I wanted to ask you,

do you have a toot?

A lude, reefer?

What the hell are you saying?

You are out of order!

I'm out of order?

You're out of order!

Shut up!

You're out of order!

This whole court's

out of order!

Thirty days in

the County Jail for contempt.

This is worse than Attica!

Attica, that's right!

Attica! Attica!

Order! Order!

Attica! Attica!

Attica! Attica!

Order! Order in the court!

Attica! Attica!

Attica! Attica!

I mean, I'm cool.

I mean, I'm out of here.

I know.

You see I,

Muhammed Jerome Willy,

have a plan.

Yeah?

You see, Muhammed

ain't going to the joint.

I'm a three-time loser, man.

I mean, I'm gonna

do some time for this one.

And I don't feel

like dying in jail.

You with me?

What?

You with me?

What do you mean?

We out of here. You with me?

Oh, no.

You gotta be crazy.

I'm not going with you.

You go yourself.

You're a murderer.

I'm just a... I didn't do...

I didn't mean that,

I didn't mean...

Make my move,

you best keep up. Dig?

I dig very much, sir.

No, wait, I've changed

my mind. Wait,

I don't wanna go with you!

I can't. Look,

I'll never keep up!

Let's go.

Oh, no. Oh, no.

Who is it?

It's me, baby. Open up.

Muhammed,

what are you doing here?

What do you mean,

what am I doing here?

I'm here to see you.

You look good, baby.

How about a little sugar?

Never mind the sugar.

I don't have any time.

I'm running late.

Excuse me.

Do you think I could

borrow a hacksaw?

Who's the surfer?

I just wanna borrow it,

cut this off

and I'm gone.

Later! Sit down!

Baby, you look good.

What are you doing

in handcuffs?

I got busted.

It's a long story.

That's it! Get out of

my house! I'm not harboring

escaped criminals.

You have an acetylene torch

in there I could borrow?

Sit down!

Well, listen how the woman

talks to the man

who pays the rent.

In your dreams.

You never paid my rent

in your life.

Well, look, I was gonna!

I just never got around to it.

It looks good, baby.

Hey, what's this?

Nothing.

What do you mean nothing?

It looks like a suitcase

to me.

You don't wanna know.

Don't get involved.

Hey, hey, baby, baby.

Now, where my baby going?

I've got a date.

See, it's just a date.

A date? Looks more

serious than a date.

Looks more like

an overnight trip.

Hey, who you been seeing

behind my back?

Look, it's probably

just a pajama party.

Bunch of girls get together,

they play some records,

they have some popcorn,

pretzels. That's all it is.

Francine, get out here, now!

I'll come out

when I feel like it!

Look, want some advice, pal?

Be gentle with the woman.

Women like it

when you're gentle.

I'm gentle.

Works for me all the time.

I'm telling you, if you...

I'll just shut

the f*** right up.

I'm furious!

I don't belong to you.

I don't belong to anyone and I

advise you to get out of here

before he gets here!

Oh, lady, please, reconsider.

You could help us, you know?

Before who gets here?

Before he gets here!

Look, I want him

to get here.

As a matter of fact,

I'm in the mood for a fight.

I'm not afraid of him,

you, you, nobody!

And no woman talks to

Muhammed Jerome Willy

the way you've been doing

and especially not in front

of company!

Well, I'm not impressed

with your company!

I'm not impressed with you,

now, just get out of here!

Look, you don't tell me

to get out. No woman tells,

nobody tells me to get out!

I'm telling you

to get out!

I wish I could take that back.

I didn't mean to say it.

I'm sorry I yelled.

What I wanted

to say was just

that maybe we could

all sit down like adults

and just sit down and talk.

Look, I'm very sorry.

I'm sorry for yelling.

Fine.

See what we're into now?

We're yelling.

Fine. Sit down.

Let's sit down

like adults, right?

Now?

Fine.

You're nothing but a goddamn

lazy no-good fool!

And you're nothing

but a two-timing b*tch!

You're nothing but trouble!

I hope they hang your ass!

Good! Because that's just

what they're gonna do!

Well, doesn't that

feel better now? Huh?

Let's get out of here!

Come on!

Break out!

Running and hiding

from the police!

Come all the way

over here to see you.

Only reason we came over

anyway was to say goodbye.

That's why you came over?

To say goodbye?

You mean in the midst

of all that trouble

you came over to see me?

That's right. That's okay,

'cause I'm ready

to face the heat.

Now, I know the police out

there with their machine guns
