2

00:
01:00,449 -- 00:01:04,826

If you check in, I'm heading for

the airport early. Meet me for coffee.

3

00:
01:41,533 -- 00:01:43,192

They're gonna mark you tardy.

4

00:
01:43,492 -- 00:01:44,951

I've got court today.

5

00:

You working late?

6

00:
01:48,623 -- 00:01:49,738

I can if you are.

7

00:
01:49,999 -- 00:01:52,157

Thought I'd take you to The Palm.

8

00:
01:53,462 -- 00:01:56,213

I wanna get my dad

one of those weather radios.

9

00:
01:56,590 -- 00:01:59,923

The nothing-but-weather ones.

Now that he's on the water.

10

00:
02:00,551 -- 00:02:03,257

Get him a book.

Let him dope it out. He'd like that.

11

00:
02:03,764 -- 00:02:05,424

You'd like that.

12

00:
02:06,266 -- 00:02:08,889

He doesn't think the weatherman

will lie to him.

13

00:
02:09,187 -- 00:02:11,594

He wants to know

if a hurricane's coming.

14

00:
02:11,856 -- 00:02:13,480

What's wrong with The Palm?

15

00:
02:15,233 -- 00:02:17,311

It's Friday night. It'll be crowded.

16

00:
02:17,987 -- 00:02:19,861

You like it crowded.

17

00:
02:20,447 -- 00:02:22,155

Okay, let's go to The Palm.

18

00:
02:46,056 -- 00:02:48,216

If you're just killing time...

19

00:
02:54,484 -- 00:02:55,812

Help!

20

00:
02:58,111 -- 00:02:59,819

Did he talk about God?

21

00:
03:00,488 -- 00:03:02,482

Ask him if God said anything bad.

22

00:
03:02,742 -- 00:03:05,576

If we get him to say

God speaks to him, then--

23

00:
03:05,911 -- 00:03:07,109

That thing's cordless.

24

00:
03:07,454 -- 00:03:08,912

What else did he say?

25

00:
03:09,247 -- 00:03:10,031

Oh, baloney.

26

00:
03:11,125 -- 00:03:13,082

She's on the phone.

She'll be right down.

27

00:
03:13,335 -- 00:03:15,577

What's he know about

the democratic process?

28

00:
03:15,921 -- 00:03:17,201

I gotta go.

29

00:
03:18,383 -- 00:03:19,758

Got any cash?

30

00:
03:20,009 -- 00:03:20,791

Sure.

31

00:
03:21,135 -- 00:03:22,843

I need about a half a million.

00:
03:44,034 -- 00:03:45,409

Sure.

41

00:
04:05,556 -- 00:04:06,505

I said I wouldn't take PAC money.

48

00:
04:37,005 -- 00:04:39,792

- That's when we didn't need it.

- What do I say now?

49

00:
04:40,174 -- 00:04:42,797

Do you swear to tell the truth?

50

00:

It was a written exam.

66

00:
05:42,697 -- 00:05:44,940

If I put into evidence

the test same time as you...

68

00:
05:47,828 -- 00:05:51,280

...and you did better than 54 of them,

would that be about right?

69

00:
05:52,125 -- 00:05:54,117

Where are we going with this?

74

00:
06:02,718 -- 00:06:03,832

Is it because you're white?
