00:
19:40,562 -- 00:19:41,961Now, go on. Do it.
280
00:
19:42,564 -- 00:19:46,159I don't want coffee.
I don't want practical women.
281
00:
19:46,835 -- 00:19:48,894I just want to drink.
282
00:
19:50,272 -- 00:19:51,671Father's orders.
283
00:
20:12,628 -- 00:20:13,754Excuse me.
284
00:
20:14,930 -- 00:20:18,696- Here, that's mine.
- Just want to look at it, chum.
285
00:
20:19,835 -- 00:20:21,894Hey, did you see this
about Ed Clary's mother?
286
00:
20:21,970 -- 00:20:24,700- Ed Clary?
- Yeah, the guy they fried by mistake.
287
00:
20:25,374 -- 00:20:28,434She died of a busted heart. No wonder.
288
00:
20:28,810 -- 00:20:32,746Says here, "The former district attorney
couldn't be found for comment."
289
00:
20:33,248 -- 00:20:34,237That guy.
290
00:
20:35,217 -- 00:20:37,913Yeah, he probably can't talk for laughing.
291
00:
20:44,459 -- 00:20:46,188Rise and shine.
292
00:
20:46,461 -- 00:20:49,692Rise and shine.
Greet the beautiful morning.
293
00:
20:50,666 -- 00:20:52,861A clean mind and a clean body.
294
00:
21:01,443 -- 00:21:03,809MAN:
Do you solemnly swear thetestimony you should give in this case
295
00:
21:03,879 -- 00:21:06,939should be the truth, the whole truth and
nothing but the truth, so help you God?
296
00:
21:07,015 -- 00:21:08,004I do.
297
00:
21:09,217 -- 00:21:11,549You were present when the alleged crime
was committed?
298
00:
21:11,620 -- 00:21:13,212I sure was, Your Honor.
299
00:
21:13,322 -- 00:21:15,916I saw him hit that man over the head
with a lead pipe.
300
00:
21:15,991 -- 00:21:17,458JUDGE:
Under what circumstances?301
00:
21:17,526 -- 00:21:19,517It was a big fight, Your Honor,
and everyone was in it.
302
00:
21:19,594 -- 00:21:20,686Thank you.
303
00:
21:21,396 -- 00:21:23,762You've heard the witness, Joseph Carter.
304
00:
21:23,865 -- 00:21:27,699You are not required to give evidence,
but you may do so if you desire.
305
00:
21:27,769 -- 00:21:30,363I'm innocent, Your Honor,
and I got something to say.
306
00:
21:30,439 -- 00:21:31,531Proceed.
307
00:
21:31,606 -- 00:21:34,439That guy was a pug,
a professional prizefighter.
308
00:
21:34,776 -- 00:21:37,506What was I supposed to do
when a guy like that swings on me?
309
00:
21:37,579 -- 00:21:38,841You say he attacked you?
310
00:
21:38,914 -- 00:21:41,576I say them jabs and right crosses,
real professional stuff,
311
00:
21:41,650 -- 00:21:44,016was coming at me so fast
I just couldn't see.
312
00:
21:44,086 -- 00:21:46,020But you struck the fatal blow.
313
00:
21:47,289 -- 00:21:48,517I'm innocent.
314
00:
21:49,224 -- 00:21:50,748I plead not guilty.
315
00:
21:51,226 -- 00:21:54,059It appearing to the court
that the crime of manslaughter,
316
00:
21:54,129 -- 00:21:55,960a felony, has been committed,
317
00:
21:56,898 -- 00:22:00,459and that there is reasonable cause
to believe that the defendant
318
00:
22:00,535 -- 00:22:01,968committed said crime,
319
00:
22:02,037 -- 00:22:06,565it is now ordered that the defendant
be bound over to Superior Court for trial.
320
00:
22:10,779 -- 00:22:12,246Victor Scott.
321
00:
22:20,288 -- 00:22:24,088Victor Scott, you are charged
with drunkenness and disorderly conduct.
322
00:
22:24,626 -- 00:22:27,322- How do you plead?
- Guilty, Your Honor.
323
00:
22:29,531 -- 00:22:32,762Mr. Scott, I'm not going to pretend
that I don't know you.
324
00:
22:33,468 -- 00:22:35,732Nor am I going to pretend
that I am unmoved
325
00:
22:35,804 -- 00:22:37,738by the sight of a man of your caliber
326
00:
22:37,806 -- 00:22:40,366appearing before me
under such circumstances.
327
00:
22:40,675 -- 00:22:42,540$50 or 10 days.
328
00:
22:44,112 -- 00:22:47,240Believe it or not, Your Honor,
I can still pay the fine.
329
00:
23:05,467 -- 00:23:07,867You and your testimony.
You didn't see a thing.
330
00:
23:07,936 -- 00:23:10,131- I did...
- All right, break it up. Break it up!
331
00:
23:10,205 -- 00:23:13,174Listen, Adam, all I done was tell the truth.
332
00:
23:13,241 -- 00:23:14,833Okay, shove off.
333
00:
23:15,410 -- 00:23:17,469You, get over there and behave yourself.
334
00:
23:17,546 -- 00:23:20,106You ought to know this rough stuff
won't help your case.
335
00:
23:20,682 -- 00:23:22,309I ain't got no case.
336
00:
23:23,051 -- 00:23:24,951Never say that out loud.
337
00:
23:25,654 -- 00:23:29,090Tell me, is it true that the deceased
was a prizefighter still active in the ring?
338
00:
23:29,157 -- 00:23:31,648Well, he fought the semi-windup
at Clancy's last week.
339
00:
23:31,726 -- 00:23:33,887Well, then, get yourself a lawyer.
You could win the case.
340
00:
23:33,962 -- 00:23:36,021What'll I pay him with? Chips?
341
00:
23:36,098 -- 00:23:37,292No, I mean it.
342
00:
23:37,365 -- 00:23:40,129You know, in this state,
a professional prizefighter's fists
343
00:
23:40,202 -- 00:23:41,931are considered deadly weapons.
344
00:
23:42,003 -- 00:23:44,301So is the lead pipe I smacked him with.
345
00:
23:44,372 -- 00:23:45,999But it was self-defense.
346
00:
23:46,108 -- 00:23:48,008You trying to sound like a lawyer?
347
00:
23:48,076 -- 00:23:49,373He is a lawyer.
348
00:
23:49,878 -- 00:23:50,867Him?
349
00:
23:51,580 -- 00:23:55,482I'm through with mouthpieces.
They take the fee and I take the rap.
350
00:
23:55,784 -- 00:23:57,684Well, go on, take the rap.
351
00:
23:59,087 -- 00:24:01,954I forgot that free advice was never
worth the money.
352
00:
24:02,657 -- 00:24:04,557Not even to fellows like him.
353
00:
24:04,726 -- 00:24:07,217Hey, you really think
you could get him off?
354
00:
24:07,295 -- 00:24:09,422- Lead-pipe cinch.
- Yeah?
355
00:
24:10,065 -- 00:24:11,191(CHUCKLING)
356
00:
24:14,803 -- 00:24:17,397Don't get up, Ray.
I won't interrupt but a minute.
357
00:
24:17,472 -- 00:24:18,939I just had a thought on that Olsen case.
358
00:
24:19,007 -- 00:24:22,067Could you gather up everything
you have on it and see me in the morning?
359
00:
24:22,144 -- 00:24:23,941Well, of course,
but it's still quite incomplete.
360
00:
24:24,012 -- 00:24:26,742That's all right.
I may have an idea for a shortcut.
361
00:
24:26,815 -- 00:24:28,544Might save Ray's boy some trouble, too.
362
00:
24:28,617 -- 00:24:31,450- That's the spirit I like to see, chief.
- All right.
363
00:
24:33,188 -- 00:24:35,383How do you like our new boss by now?
364
00:
24:35,490 -- 00:24:38,516Oh, he's very considerate
and a hard worker.
365
00:
24:39,127 -- 00:24:41,322But no Victor Scott, is that it?
366
00:
24:41,396 -- 00:24:43,830Still accusing me of hero-worship, eh?
367
00:
24:43,899 -- 00:24:47,426I admit I'm surprised that you didn't follow
Scott instead of sticking with the new DA.
368
00:
24:47,502 -- 00:24:49,970Victor wouldn't have me. It's that simple.
