00:
48:51,932 -- 00:48:53,474Yeah.
533
00:
49:01,984 -- 00:49:06,147They just told me
that they weighed Lewis today
534
00:
49:06,363 -- 00:49:09,032for the trap doors of the gallows.
535
00:
49:12,828 -- 00:49:15,533- Beth...
- Get out of here.
536
00:
49:19,960 -- 00:49:22,249Get the f*** out of here, Sheriff.
537
00:
50:46,338 -- 00:50:50,087- Sheriff is here.
- What do you say? How're you doing?
538
00:
50:50,300 -- 00:50:54,547- I thought you had plans.
- I did. A thing at Lincoln Center.
539
00:
50:54,763 -- 00:51:00,636You know what I mean? But here I am.
Ready to discuss. What did I order?
540
00:
51:00,853 -- 00:51:04,435Sheriff, this is Kerrie, my fiance.
Kerrie, John Volgecherev.
541
00:
51:04,648 -- 00:51:06,391Kerrie, nice to meet you.
542
00:
51:06,608 -- 00:51:10,736You're not as platinum
as I expected you to be.
543
00:
51:16,410 -- 00:51:18,698Listen, Sheriff...
544
00:
51:18,912 -- 00:51:23,574It's pretty obvious that you have
no intention of going back, right?
545
00:
51:27,754 -- 00:51:29,794Where?
546
00:
51:30,883 -- 00:51:34,631- Is he drunk?
- Oh, you mean, like, back to prison.
547
00:
51:34,845 -- 00:51:37,383Right, well, I've never actually been.
548
00:
51:38,599 -- 00:51:40,924Do you have a fork I could use?
549
00:
51:41,143 -- 00:51:46,268I've never been to prison, thus, I can't
go back to somewhere I've never been.
550
00:
51:46,481 -- 00:51:49,685Thank you.
That is brilliantly unhelpful.
551
00:
51:49,902 -- 00:51:52,523- Yes.
- Beth, I checked.
552
00:
51:52,738 -- 00:51:56,320Penang Prison is at a third-world level
of sanitation, nutrition,
553
00:
51:56,533 -- 00:51:58,775rice rations don't meet minimum...
554
00:
51:58,994 -- 00:52:03,122Lewis is provided with food from Amnesty
International. So would Tony be.
555
00:
52:03,332 -- 00:52:06,001- Inmates have been tortured.
- He hasn't been.
556
00:
52:06,210 -- 00:52:09,709- Inmates have died of typhus.
- Because of overcrowding.
557
00:
52:09,922 -- 00:52:13,291Lewis has his own cell, as would Tony,
and Sheriff if he goes back.
558
00:
52:13,509 -- 00:52:18,052That's really good. And the other thing
I think you've overlooked
559
00:
52:18,263 -- 00:52:21,015is that that building's not up to code.
560
00:
52:21,225 -- 00:52:23,597- Oh, Jesus.
- What are you, the class clown?
561
00:
52:23,810 -- 00:52:26,811And who are you to tell them
to give up their freedom?
562
00:
52:27,022 -- 00:52:29,180I represent a boy sentenced to death.
563
00:
52:29,399 -- 00:52:32,021Right. For the sake of some client,
you demand...
564
00:
52:32,236 -- 00:52:36,862Demand? No, no, no. I don't demand.
I have not demanded anything.
565
00:
52:37,074 -- 00:52:41,368...that they endure three or six years
of God knows what. That's insane.
566
00:
52:41,578 -- 00:52:43,986Yeah, it's insane, OK?
567
00:
52:48,210 -- 00:52:51,246- I'm gonna go back.
- What?
568
00:
52:53,090 -- 00:52:54,964OK?
569
00:
52:57,761 -- 00:53:00,217I'm sorry, honey.
570
00:
53:01,306 -- 00:53:03,632In the middle of this, what matters?
571
00:
53:04,893 -- 00:53:08,393That Lewis doesn't die.
Somebody's got to do something. Please.
572
00:
53:12,442 -- 00:53:15,147Where's the document
that guarantees this deal?
573
00:
53:17,281 -- 00:53:20,732The Attorney General of Malaysia
has agreed...
574
00:
53:20,951 -- 00:53:23,738So where is it?
Why don't we have a copy?
575
00:
53:25,038 -- 00:53:27,446- It's an oral agreement.
- No.
576
00:
53:27,666 -- 00:53:30,157Tony goes nowhere
till we have that document.
577
00:
53:30,377 -- 00:53:32,785They don't work that way.
I wish they did.
578
00:
53:33,005 -- 00:53:35,211I cannot get anything to you in writing.
579
00:
53:37,009 -- 00:53:39,500Don't.
580
00:
53:39,720 -- 00:53:42,471I'll be at home if you want me.
581
00:
53:48,478 -- 00:53:51,266Sorry, Tony. I'm sorry.
582
00:
53:51,481 -- 00:53:54,981She's just scared, all right?
She's more scared than I am.
583
00:
53:59,198 -- 00:54:01,867You're gonna have to excuse me.
584
00:
54:02,075 -- 00:54:04,827If I'm gonna get her
to wait three years for me...
585
00:
54:08,081 -- 00:54:10,370I guess six...
586
00:
54:11,502 -- 00:54:14,123I shouldn't keep her waiting tonight.
587
00:
54:14,338 -- 00:54:16,745Tony, what can I say? Thank you.
588
00:
54:18,926 -- 00:54:20,669Sure.
589
00:
54:21,637 -- 00:54:24,009All right, Tony.
590
00:
54:24,223 -- 00:54:27,259- See you, man.
- See you later. Good luck with that.
591
00:
54:28,727 -- 00:54:31,977Right, Sheriff.
I'll go talk to the firm.
592
00:
54:36,026 -- 00:54:38,517Well, quite a party.
593
00:
54:44,826 -- 00:54:47,697- Are you gonna go back to your hotel?
- Oh, yes.
594
00:
54:47,913 -- 00:54:50,321Gotta call Penang.
Give them the good news.
595
00:
54:50,541 -- 00:54:53,078So I guess Lew's gonna be OK then, huh?
596
00:
54:54,211 -- 00:54:57,081Which means, you know...
597
00:
54:57,297 -- 00:55:00,002You're off the hook?
598
00:
55:00,217 -- 00:55:02,790- I'm off the hook, huh?
- Good night.
599
00:
56:10,287 -- 00:56:13,074Jaffe, I want a follow-up
on the Canarsie fire.
600
00:
56:13,290 -- 00:56:16,125- Nice of you to join us, Ravitch.
- It's my pleasure.
601
00:
56:16,335 -- 00:56:19,205I'd like some pictures
of the shopkeeper, burnt out.
602
00:
56:19,421 -- 00:56:20,915You got it.
603
00:
56:21,131 -- 00:56:23,705MJ, where's my pension fund fraud?
604
00:
56:23,926 -- 00:56:26,298I thought you had a CPA
who was ready to talk.
605
00:
56:26,512 -- 00:56:29,299I did. And she's given me gold.
606
00:
56:29,515 -- 00:56:31,756I'm just fact-checking a few points.
607
00:
56:31,975 -- 00:56:35,427And I'm looking for a source
called Sheriff.
608
00:
56:36,897 -- 00:56:40,348Ring anybody's bell? Sheriff?
609
00:
56:40,567 -- 00:56:43,105OK. Let's go, then.
610
00:
57:12,349 -- 00:57:15,385i- Yeah?
- Hi. It's Beth./i
611
00:
57:15,602 -- 00:57:19,386I talked to the garage
and they said you called in sick.
612
00:
57:19,606 -- 00:57:23,853i- Can I come up and see you?
- Uh... sure./i
613
00:
57:30,576 -- 00:57:32,449- Hi.
- Hi there.
614
00:
57:32,661 -- 00:57:36,077- Hi there.
- I brought some goodies from Zabar's.
615
00:
57:36,290 -- 00:57:38,911Jewish penicillin. Cure you right up.
616
00:
57:39,126 -- 00:57:42,329Isn't that nice? Should I beware
of lawyers bearing gifts?
617
00:
57:44,840 -- 00:57:47,295Think I'm gonna have a beer.
Do you want one?
618
00:
57:47,509 -- 00:57:50,510Uh... beer? Sure.
619
00:
57:52,639 -- 00:57:54,965You're quite the avid reader,
aren't you?
620
00:
57:55,184 -- 00:57:57,721- Or is this just...
- Yeah, just for showing off.
621
00:
57:57,936 -- 00:58:01,305All the visitors I have. I keep my place
real impressive, don't I?
622
00:
58:01,523 -- 00:58:03,516
