Brad Chase is with her.Lori Colson: The trial starts tomorrow?Brad Chase: I can bring you up to speed on it. The facts are straight forward.Lori Colson: And why can’t Tara do it?Brad Chase: Well… Tara’s a junior associate. This trial’s gonna to be in the news, it’s hardly the kind of case that…Lori Colson: Brad! It isn’t the case so much as it is the client? Right? And it isn’t who she is, so much as what she is, right? What is she Brad? He doesn’t answer. Can’t you even say the word?Brad Chase: I can say it.Lori Colson: Well, what is she Brad?Brad Chase: She’s a… homosexual.Lori Colson: And what’s the word for a female homosexual?Brad Chase: Lesbian.Lori Colson: I couldn’t really hear that.Brad Chase: She’s a lesbian.Lori Colson: Hah! You don’t wanna do the case because your client’s a lesbian? Brad Chase: Lori, this is a high profile case. I’ve worked my entire life to associate with decency and what is good for America.Lori Colson: And lesbians are bad for America?Brad Chase: They have bad values. Reflects poorly on all of us.Lori Colson: As a nation? He sighs. Now would you like to tell me the real reason? Brad Chase: What do you mean?Lori Colson: I know for a fact you’ve represented gay clients before.Brad Chase: Not on television. Not in the news.Lori Colson: Brad, we’re friends. Level with me. What is it about this particular lesbian?Brad Chase: I’m attracted to her.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, at the morning staff meeting in the conference. Alan Shore: Why does Shirley get to skip the staff meetings?Paul Lewiston: She’s got a trial in New York later this week so she has a busy day. Brad Chase: Some of us have trials today, so if you don’t mind, I’d like to cut out. Lori Colson: What’s your case about, Brad?Alan Shore: What is it about?Brad Chase: It involves interference with contractual relations.Alan Shore: You mean… lesbians?Paul Lewiston: Where are you?Brad Chase: Today they’re calling Tracy to testify that her ex-lover was…Alan Shore: Lesbian, ex-lover.Brad Chase: ... to testify that Tracy was scamming her for money. Tracy was in fact not an actual bonified…Alan Shore: Lesbian?Brad Chase: You like saying it?Alan Shore: I do.Brad Chase: Say it again!Alan Shore: Lesbian.Brad Chase: Keep going.Alan Shore: Lesbian. Lesbian. Lesbian. All together now!All: Lesbian!Alan Shore: I also like to watch. How many people have…Paul Lewiston: All right, that’s enough, this is a staff meeting. I’ll ask you all to conduct yourselves appropriately and professionally.Catherine Piper: She comes in with a plate of cookies. Cookies everyone! Nourishment is most important in the morning.Paul Lewiston: Who is this woman?Catherine Piper: Take two Tara, you’re a rail.Paul Lewiston: Who is this woman?Catherine Piper: The ones on the left have a little bran. To help our older lawyers with their routine.Paul Lewiston: Who is this woman?Catherine Piper: I’m Catherine Piper. I’m Alan’s new assistant. My! Don’t you have an interesting face?Paul Lewiston: We are in the middle of a staff meeting.Catherine Piper: No need to be snippy, Dear. Especially since I come bearing treats. You never get a second chance to make a first impression. To Lori. You certainly make one. All that bleach.Paul Lewiston: Ma’m? You will have to leave.Catherine Piper: I’m beginning to not like you.Denny Crane: Well! If you’ll excuse me, I have a trial myself.Paul Lewiston: You have a trial?Denny Crane: Yes, tomorrow morning. I’ve gotta go meet with my client.Paul Lewiston: What kind of trial?Denny Crane: Criminal. It’s a doctor who did… something… against the law.Paul Lewiston: Who else is with you on this trial?Denny Crane: Nobody. I decided to fly solo. Think about that! Tell Shirley. Denny Crane without a co-pilot.Paul Lewiston: Dear God in heaven.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, in the men’s room. Alan comes out of a stall to find Shirley leaning against the counter, waiting for him.Alan Shore: Shirley?Shirley Schmidt: Alan?Alan Shore: You’re in the men’s room again.Shirley Schmidt: I need a favor.Alan Shore: Certainly. My stall or yours?Shirley Schmidt: Driving into work this morning, I heard of a trial involving this new wonder diet drug… the drug, and accordingly the trial, are making the news. And then I heard something very disturbing. The name of the lawyer handling the defense.Alan Shore: Denny Crane.Shirley Schmidt: Nobody wants this firm held up to ridicule. Nobody wants Denny exposed.Alan Shore: I’ve been in court with Denny. He knows what he’s doing, at least fifty percent of the time.Shirley Schmidt: I like him. You like him. I have to be in New York.Denny Crane: He comes in.If she tries to pee standing up come and get me. He goes into a stall. Lock and Load.At the courthouse, Brad, Tracy Green and Tara Wilson are walking down the corridor.Tara Wilson: Tracy, we can still make this go away.Tracy Green: How many times must you both say that?Brad Chase: Until you consider it. Are you sure you want your personal life probed, with details at 11:00?Tracy Green: I didn’t steal from her. And I won’t offer her anything to settle. I’d appreciate you being on my side.Brad Chase: Hey! I’m on your side.Tracy Green: Right.In Judge William Connolly’s courtroom Stephanie Rogers is in the witness chair.Stephanie Rogers: We met at an AIDs fundraiser about two years ago. We were both publicists so we had a lot in common.Attorney Morrison: And at some point, Ms Rogers, you and the defendant became lovers?Stephanie Rogers: Yes. She moved into my home, ultimately we became business partners and formed Rogers and Green, which became one of the top PR firms in Boston.Attorney Morrison: And what happened?Stephanie Rogers: Well, quite simply, after she gained access to my files and my clients she stole them.Brad Chase: Objection!Judge William Connolly: Sustained.Stephanie Rogers: I since learned that she’s not even gay, that she basically pretended to be so that she could gain access to my client roster.Attorney Morrison: Now Ms Rogers, when you allege that the defendant pretended to be gay…Stephanie Rogers: She had boyfriends before me and one after, perhaps that makes her bisexual, it doesn’t make any difference, because I specifically asked her that at the beginning of our relationship.Attorney Morrison: Whether she was bisexual?Stephanie Rogers: Yes. I’d been hurt before by heterosexual women experimenting, and I didn’t wanna go down that road again. She told me she was gay. That was a lie, one that cost me valuable clients.Brad Chase: Just let me understand this. The bases of your claim is that my client faked her sexual orientation for the sole purpose of getting you to fall in love with her so that she could move into your home… and business and steal your clients? Stephanie Rogers: Yes!Brad Chase: When in fact it wasn’t only your business. You built it up together over the two years.Stephanie Rogers: I founded the company, and most of the clients that she left with were mine.Brad Chase: Now Ms Rogers, as business partners, as a couple, you two were quite prominent. Isn’t that right? Your photos were constantly in the Globe or Boston magazine being called the new IT Girls. You two got more publicity than your clients.Stephanie Rogers: It works to the client’s benefit as well, so I don’t see your point. Brad Chase: My point is you two got a lot of publicity together, as a couple, business just went through the roof. Even if you were defrauded, it wasn’t exactly to your financial detriment.Stephanie Rogers: It was certainly to my detriment, when she left.Brad Chase: Well, but even so. You make more money now than you did before even meeting Tracy, so how could you have been hurt?Stephanie Rogers: How have I been hurt? She caused me to fall in love with her! That…Brad Chase: That’s what this really about. Isn’t it Ms Rogers? This isn’t a business dispute. This is a domestic one. Did she break your heart?Attorney Morrison: Objection!Judge William Connolly: I’ll allow it.Brad Chase: Did she break your heart?Stephanie Rogers: Yes.Brad Chase: You were in love with her? Now Ms Rogers, during the two years that you were together with my client, do you feel that she was in love with you? Stephanie Rogers: Yes.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, in Denny’s office. Denny is with a client, Dr Robert Mclean.Dr Robert Mclean: Obviously should I get a criminal conviction that will only make it easier for AMA to take a way my medical license.Brad Chase: Well, you’re gonna lose your license Bob, so I won’t worry about…Dr Robert McLean: Why? There are many doctors out there prescribing medication the FDA hasn’t approved for…Denny Crane: May I stop you? Don’t be self-righteous. It’s annoying.Alan Shore: He comes in.Sorry I’m late.Denny Crane: What are you doing here?Alan Shore: You asked me to second-chair, Denny. Remember? To Dr Mclean. Alan Shore.Dr Robert McLean: He shakes Alan’s hand.Bob McLean.Denny Crane: Alan? He waves Alan into another room. I never asked you to second-chair.Alan Shore: Sure you did, Denny! You said you were trying the case…Denny Crane: Solo! I said, “Solo!”Alan Shore: Well I thought you asked for backup, so I guess one of us is losing our mind.Denny Crane: What do you mean by that?Alan Shore: Denny, I’m here! As you know I’m starved for criminal work.Denny Crane: I want to do this alone.Alan Shore: Is this about proving something? You said, “Tell Shirley.” Is about proving to Shirley Schmidt you haven’t slipped?Denny Crane: Excuse me. I’m in a meeting.Alan Shore: Denny, I don’t have time to say this nicely. So! I’m just gonna say it with all the rough edges. This is a criminal proceeding; that man’s liberty could be at stake. I’m jumping in, second-chair, to cover his ass, and yes, possibly yours as well.In a bar, Brad and Tracy are having a drink.Brad Chase: Could it be possible she’s doing this for the publicity?Tracy Green: Suing me?Brad Chase: Well, call me a cynic, but for two years you’re the IT girls. You’re Boston’s top publicists. Business starts to wane. You leave. She’s suddenly not the flavor of the month. She sues you. Presto! Hot copy is the Split Girls all over again. For the cost of attorney and filing fee she’s featured on every newscast.Tracy Green: As much as she love’s the limelight, Stephanie’s honorable.Brad Chase: Yeah, I wonder.Tracy Green: Is there a reason you keep looking at me like that?Brad Chase: Like what?Tracy Green: I make you nervous. You need to get over that.Brad Chase: So how many men have you been with?Tracy Green: Why are you asking?At Crane, Poole and Schmidt in the kitchen. Lori and Brad are having a cup of coffee.Brad Chase: I asked her because she’s going to be asked on the stand why she has such a hard time giving me a straight answer. However…Lori Colson: Is because?Brad Chase: I have doubts that she really is one.Lori Colson: A homosexual?Brad Chase: Yes.Brad Chase: And are these doubts based on the plaintiff’s evidence? Or your own scientific compass?Lori Colson: Is she attracted to you, Brad?Brad Chase: She might be. Lori chuckles. What?Lori Colson: Why is it men…? I mean is it the idea of losing one to the other side, or is it since you have feeling for her you’re anxious to feel it’s mutual?Brad Chase: You see? You sucker me with this buddy talk; get me to reveal my feelings. But when I do… you punish me with them.Lori Colson: I thought you were attracted to me.Brad Chase: You don’t wanna go there.Lori Colson: Even so. To be forgotten so easily. And for a homosexual?Brad Chase: Is there something taped to my head that says, “Mock me.”? Catherine Piper: She comes in and goes to get a cup of coffee.Isn’t coffee a lovely drug? I love brain stimulants, don’t you? Uh, Catherine Piper!Brad Chase: Brad Chase.Catherine Piper: Brad Chase? You’re defending a lesbian!Brad doesn’t reply. He just leaves.Lori Colson: Hi! I’m Lori Colson, we haven’t officially met.Catherine Piper: Hello, Dear. Catherine Piper.Lori Colson: For the future. I don’t really appreciate comments about my hair. Catherine Piper: Oh! I’m sorry. I was just trying to make conversation. And I assumed you wouldn’t want me to go anywhere near your eyebrows.In Judge Paul Resnick’s courtroom, Mark Harrison is on the stand.Mark Harrison: I tried diets. All of them. I exercised. I’d gone on Phen Phen years ago, and that helped a little, but… mainly I just kept gettin bigger.A.D.A. Howard Zale: And at some point the defendant mentioned a new drug? Mark Harrison: Yes. I forgot how he said he had access to it, but, basically he said he had this new drug, not on the market yet, called Vermonaband, and studies showed, how, it could help people lose weight. And desperate as I was, I just said, “Yes.”A.D.A. Howard Zale: He sold you this drug? In his office?Mark Harrison: Yes. And he told me not to tell anyone, because he said it was illegal for him to be giving it to me.A.D.A. Howard Zale: Thank you, Mr Harrison.Denny Crane: Can’t help but notice, you’re really fat.Mark Harrison: Yes.Denny Crane: Been fatter?Mark Harrison: Much.Denny Crane: Drug worked?Mark Harrison: Huge! I mean I lost weight. My cholesterol went down. My HDL actually went up!Denny Crane: HmMark Harrison: I mean it was a godsend. Of course, till the… you know, police cut off my supplier.Alan Shore: Objection to the word ‘supplier’, Your Honor. It makes my client sound like a drug dealer.Denny Crane: Well he is a drug dealer, he sold him drugs.Alan Shore: Yes! But there’s a bias that goes with the word ‘dealer’. He simply prescribed a medicine to help him live.Denny Crane: He’s right.Alan Shore: This man almost died. Didn’t he?Denny Crane: Didn’t you?Mark Harrison: I had high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes. I mean, I was at serious risk for a major heart attack or a stroke, probably still am.Denny Crane: Since you stopped taking the drug?Mark Harrison: I’m having problems again.Denny Crane: Did my client tell you that this drug is unapproved by the FDA?Mark Harrison: Yes.Denny Crane: Did he tell you that there could be side affects?Mark Harrison: Yes.Denny Crane: You were fully informed?Mark Harrison: I was.Denny Crane: You consented?Mark Harrison: I did.Denny Crane: Take it again?Mark Harrison: Absolutely!Denny Crane: Like the doctor?Mark Harrison: Love him.Denny Crane: How’s your memory.Mark Harrison: My memory’s fine.Denny Crane: What’s my name.Mark Harrison: Denny Crane.Denny Crane: Like you mean it.Mark Harrison: Denny Crane!Denny Crane: What’s my name?!!Mark Harrison: Denny Crane!!!Denny Crane: No further questions.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, in Brad office. He and Tracy are watching a newscast.Newsperson: Stephanie Rogers is essentially accusing Ms Green of being a heterosexual in sheep’s clothing. If successful the plaintiff could potentially receive a judgment in excess of seven figures. Which why perhaps this…Tracy Green: Wait, she wasn’t finished!Brad Chase: It doesn’t matter how it’s playing out in public Tracy. What matters is the twelve people in that box.Tracy Green: And?Brad Chase: I can’t tell. Well you’ve dated more men than women, so that puts you on the heterosexual side of the fence. You certainly could have been confused as they said, but... the problem is you’re coming off as anything but indecisive. You seem like a woman who knows exactly what you want.Tracy Green: What is that supposed to mean?Brad Chase: Nothing.Tracy Green: They stare at each other.You actually think that I’m attracted to you. Brad Chase: I just believe you should be straight with people. But you know what I mean. I smell some decent here.Tracy Green: I’m gay, Brad. Do you want me to take a lie detector?In Judge Paul Resnick’s courtroom, Dr Leonard Raskin is on the stand.Dr.Leonard Raskin: People lament the cost of health care, they cry over soaring litigation costs and scream about the eroding integrity of our medical profession. The conduct of this doctor and others like him are to blame.Denny Crane: Oh… Lighten up man.Judge Paul Resnick: Mr Crane! You’ll get your turn.Dr Leonard Raskin: We have rules. One is we do not go prescribing experimental drugs that the FDA hasn’t approved for market.A.D.A. Howard Zale: Even if the patient consents?Dr Leonard Raskin: The patient will always follow the lead of his doctor. For God’s sake look what people buy off infomercials. They’ll try anything, hair potions; pills that make you lose weight while you sleep. Desperate people will try anything. And when you have a licensed doctor saying, “Here. Take this.”? They will.Denny Crane: This isn’t a potion. This drug works.Dr Leonard Raskin: In preliminary studies. But there’s much, much, more testing to be done.Denny Crane: How long does it take the FDA to approve a drug?Dr Leonard Raskin: It isn’t quick, but…Denny Crane: How long?Dr Leonard Raskin: Nine years.Denny Crane: My client’s patient would be dead by then. But, hey! You got your rules.A.D.A. Howard Zale: Objection!Denny Crane: Oh be quiet.A.D.A. Howard Zale: Your Honor, he can’t tell me to be quiet.Judge Paul Resnick: Let him have his turn, Mr Zale.Denny Crane: You say that doctors shouldn’t prescribe non-FDA-approved drugs as a rule.Dr Leonard Raskin: Yes.Denny Crane: Doctors don’t prescribe medications for things that the FDA hasn’t approved them for?Dr Leonard Raskin: Off label prescriptions happen, but…Denny Crane: Doctor, have you ever prescribed a drug that wasn’t approved for the particular condition you were treating?Dr Leonard Raskin: Yes, but…Denny Crane: And doctor, if you were overweight, and at risk for an eminent stroke or heart attack. Is it your testimony that you would never consider taking Vermonaband?Dr Leonard Raskin: For myself, I might, but...Denny Crane: But, you wouldn’t give your patient the same opportunity, because you have rules.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, Lori is in her office, Brad is with her.Lori Colson: You’re going to be the first lawyer sued by his client for sexual harassment.Brad Chase: I’m a good lawyer because I got a nose for the truth, Lori.Lori Colson: You’re attracted to her, Brad. It’s clouding your nose. Are you falling in love with this woman?Brad Chase: What? Please.Lori Colson: Are you?Brad Chase: Of course not. I put a tail on her.Lori Colson: I beg your pardon?Brad Chase: I hired a PI, just to follow her around, see who she sees.Lori Colson: What she sees. You’re trying to out her as a heterosexual.Brad Chase: I don’t like surprises in court.Lori Colson: Okay. First? You could lose your bar ticket for putting a tail…Brad Chase: Why? It’s not that big of a deal.Lori Colson: Brad! She’s your client! Second, let the jury decide whether or not she’s being truthful. You just be her lawyer, and only… And third, stop hitting on her.Brad leaves and walks out. Out in the corridor he walks by a group of people standing around a table.Alan Shore: Hey Brad? All together now!All: Lesbian!Shirley comes up.Shirley Schmidt: Boy? How’s our trial going?Denny Crane: You think I’m just gonna wither up and die in there, don’t you? Shirley Schmidt: All these references to our sex life, Denny.Denny Crane: Tell her how I’m doing, Alan.Shirley Schmidt: Please. Since he can’t recall.Alan Shore: He’s been amazing! I’d say we have a better than even chance. Denny Crane: Ah. He and Alan leave.Shirley Schmidt: To Catherine Piper standing next to her.Hello?Catherine Piper: Hello.Shirley Schmidt: Is there a reason you’re snuggled up to me?Catherine Piper: Why yes! I understand you’re the boss, Dear. I’m sucking up. Shirley Schmidt: By standing next to me?Catherine Piper: Yes! With me by your side, Dear, you almost look young!Shirley Schmidt: I have no idea who you are. But I like you.Catherine Piper: He-he-he.Shirley Schmidt: To Alan walking by.Is he really doing okay?Alan Shore: The firm is safe from ridicule.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, Alan is in his office.Denny Crane: He comes in.What did she want? Make sure I’m competent?Alan Shore: Something like that. You were more that competent today Denny, you were good, very good.Denny Crane: I know.Alan Shore: We must be doing our crosswords these days.Denny Crane: Did she ask you to backstop me?Alan Shore: It was my idea.Denny Crane: Damn liar.Alan Shore: I like doing cases with you Denny. Can’t you just accept that? It’s fun. Denny Crane: Fun. Fine. I’ll go with that then.Alan Shore: You have seemed especially acute. Are we taking something?Denny Crane: I just rubbed on a little clear cream. It was just for muscle cramps. Alan Shore: Denny? Are you taking something?Denny Crane: What I’m taking is good care of myself. The old Denny Crane is coming back.In Judge William Connolly’s courtroom.Tracy Green: My business had reached sort of a plateau, and I felt I could do better solo. And truthfully, I thought that she might to.Brad Chase: Now before leaving, did you tell your clients?Tracy Green: Absolutely not! I left. I contacted them. They decided to come with me. In that order.Brad Chase: Now Tracy, we’ve heard the accusation that you pretended to love Stephanie for business reasons.Tracy Green: It’s absolutely false. I… I fell in love with her. I mean, the idea that I could feign love for two plus years… just… you know how much I loved you, Stephanie.Judge William Connolly: Ms Green, please do not address anyone but me or your council.Tracy Green: I never lied to her about my sexual orientation, and I’m offended by that.Attorney Morrison: How many women had you been with prior to your relationship with my client.Brad Chase: Objection!Judge William Connolly: Overruled. However salacious, it’s in issue.Attorney Morrison: How many women?Tracy Green: One.Attorney Morrison: One? And prior to your relationship with my client, how many men had you had sexual relationships with?Tracy Green: Several.Attorney Morrison: Several? More than five?Tracy Green: Yes.Attorney Morrison: More than ten?Tracy Green: I wanted to lead a heterosexual life, eventually I realized…Attorney Morrison: My client asked you if you were bisexual. You answered, “No.” Tracy Green: Because I’m not. I may have been with men in the past but ultimately I realized I preferred women.Attorney Morrison: How many relationships have you had since Stephanie?Tracy Green: One.Attorney Morrison: A man or a woman.Tracy Green: Well, the breakup with Stephanie was extremely painful…Attorney Morrison: Your subsequent relationship was with a man or a woman? Tracy Green: A man.Attorney Morrison: A man? Now you spoke earlier about the exact order of how things went down. Rewinding a little further back, you met Stephanie,.became her lover, eventually became her business partner, left with clients and files, began having an affair with a man. Did I get the order right?At the courthouse, Tracy and Brad go into a witness room.Tracy Green: I just got destroyed. Didn’t I?Brad Chase: You didn’t get destroyed. It was a tough cross but I thought you held up.Tracy Green: Really?Brad Chase: Really.Tracy Green: You know, to think that I’m straight is to believe that I’m a profoundly dishonest person, and I’m not dishonest, Brad.Brad Chase: Okay.Tracy Green: You know, I can take you doubting my sexual orientation, but my character, I uh…Brad Chase: I don’t doubt you.Brad and Tara are in an elevator.Brad Chase: She’s trying to admit something.Tara Wilson: What? That she’s not gay?Brad Chase: I don know. Maybe.Tara Wilson: You’re making a fool of yourself, Brad.Brad Chase: I know when I’m being deceived, Tara.Tara Wilson: The deception is self-inflicted. You’re infatuated with her and you want to believe it’s reciprocal. She’s probably more interested in me, than you. You’re making a fool of yourself.In Judge Paul Resnick’s courtroom.Dr Robert Mclean: I considered it life or death. He was at risk of cardiac arrest, diabetes.Denny Crane: And this drug was your only resort?Dr Robert Mclean: It was my last resort. Believe me, I’m not in the habit of prescribing non-approved drugs, but this…Denny Crane: Doctor, would you tell the jury, and me to, for that matter cause I’ve forgotten, how Veromanabin works?Dr Robert Mclean: I suppresses a protein in the brain that makes you want to eat. In fact this drug blocks nearly all cravings. It can be used to help people quit smoking, drinking, which is why it’s been called the wonder drug.A.D.A. Howard Zale: So! You just figured what the hell, why wait for proof?Dr Robert Mclean: My patient couldn’t wait Mr Zale. He was looking at an eminent physical demise. In medical terms we call it death.A.D.A. Howard Zale: Any published studies on this drug? To justify this wonder status you give it?Dr Robert Mclean: Not yet.A.D.A. Howard Zale: Has this drug been approved for sale?Dr Robert Mclean: Not yet.A.D.A. Howard Zale: How’d you get your hands on this drug doctor?Dr Robert Mclean: I had a connection at one of the clinics where it’s being tested. I won’t reveal more than that.A.D.A. Howard Zale: You’re a licensed doctor, prescribing a drug not approved by the FDA, to desperate patients.Dr Robert Mclean: With a full warning.A.D.A. Howard Zale: How can warn about a drug side affect you don’t know about? Dr Robert Mclean: The warning I gave Mr Harrison was exactly that! This drug may have side affects we don’t know about.A.D.A. Howard Zale: Possible fatal side effects?Dr Robert Mclean: There’s no evidence of that.A.D.A. Howard Zale: So you decide…Dr Robert Mclean: Balancing the benefits against the known risks of a coronary if he doesn’t take it, I favor taking the medication.A.D.A. Howard Zale: This is an experimental drug!Dr Robert Mclean: Which I have no financial in.A.D.A. Howard Zale: Which you boot leg!Dr Robert Mclean: My only concern was a patient’s health.A.D.A. Howard Zale: So! Doctor’s should feel free to ignore the FDA whenever they choose?Dr Robert Mclean: I never said that.A.D.A. Howard Zale: Oh, so you should feel free whenever you choose?Dr Robert Mclean: Sometimes desperate circumstances require desperate measures.A.D.A. Howard Zale: And desperate people will do anything, won’t they?At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, in the men’s room, Denny is standing in front of a urinal.Paul Lewiston: He comes in.Denny?Denny Crane: You’re checking on me in here too? Think I’ve forgotten how to piss? Paul Lewiston: I beg your pardon?Denny Crane: Tired of being followed around like some patient! I change my underwear every day. I know how to practice law! And if you’re the one who assigned Alan Shore to backstop me then you’d better stop…Paul Lewiston: You’d listen!Denny Crane: I’m still talking.Paul Lewiston: Now I’m talking. You arrogant old fart! You have a client facing prison time. You have no right to exalt your ego.Denny Crane: Don’t you talk to me in that…Paul Lewiston: Shut up! I am sick of you feeling sorry for yourself and only yourself. It was selfish of you to try this case solo. Do not start a war with me here. You may not win it!Denny Crane: That’s why you brought Shirley back? To build an alliance! Guess you’re the one who forgot how to piss.In Judge William Connolly’s courtroom, Attorney Morrison is giving his closing argument.Attorney Morrison: Does it smell right to you? She had a history of men before my client; she never hinted to her best friends that she was anything but heterosexual; she had an affair with a man after she left my client. Her only fling with homosexuality just happened to coincide with the biggest financial windfall of her life. Suddenly being gay got her money. Got her profiled about town, in magazines, on TV as an IT girl. New found fame, new found money, new found sexual orientation. Does it smell right to you?Brad Chase: In order to make a Cause Of Action for fraud, one must prove that he or she relied on the fraud to his or her own detriment. Now after partnering with my client, Ms Roger’s financial and professional fortunes soared. She benefited. In fact one might even say, considering the media coverage of this lawsuit that she’s actually benefiting from the breakup because as any PR professional knows, there’s no such thing as bad publicity. But if you’re determined to get hung-up on the issue, “Is Tracy Green gay or not?”, “Did she really love Stephanie or not?” consider Stephanie’s own testimony when I asked her, during the relationship, as she was living it, did she feel that Tracy loved her, and she answered was, “Yes.”。

Boston LegalStill Crazy After All These YearsSeason 1, Episode 2Written by Kerry Ehrin and David E. Kelley© David E. Kelley Productions. All Rights ReservedBroadcast: October 10, 2004Transcribed by olucy.Scene opens inside a mental institution’s visiting room. The room is filled with various patients, including an older, African American man with Tourette’s syndrome yelling “Bats on the run!”, and a younger Caucasian woman with multiple scars on her arm. A woman is ushered into the room by a psych nurse and taken to a long table where Alan Shore is seated, hunched over a jigsaw puzzle.Psych Nurse: You have 30 minutes.Christine Pauley: I have to say I find this very strange. I always thought I’d be the one visiting you in a mental hospital.Alan smiles. She sits down across from him.Christine Pauley: I’m excited about tomorrow. Please tell me we have a shot. I don’t know how much longer I can take it in here.Alan Shore: We have a shot. I’ll get you out.Christine Pauley: I don’t need to hear it, Alan. I need it to happen.Alan Shore: The board will question you directly. It’s entirely possible they’ll try to provoke you.Christine Pauley: Make sure I’m bomb proof?Alan Shore: Sorry?Christine Pauley: It’s an expression with horses. To be safe to ride a horse it needs to be bomb proof. It doesn’t spook easily. Can’t have one who just flies off.Alan Shore: Yes. In addition to not flying off, you need to show contrition. They like to see that you’re sorry. Christine Pauley: I am. I – I am so sorry. So deep--deeply ashamed. How do I say it right?Alan Shore: Just like that. Christine, you were in love with a man who was unworthy of you. Who made you doubt everything that you had a right to count on. Who perhaps even toyed with your sanity.Christine Pauley: Still no excuse for trying to kill him.Alan Shore: Perhaps he had it coming.Christine Pauley: Perhaps you did.Theme songInside a CP&S conference roomPaul Lewiston: Why is it we agreed to bifurcate the trial?Brad Chase(speaking rapidly): There’s been no claim for punitive damages, only compensatory. But our fear was the jury could be so outraged, they might artificially inflate compensatories as a de facto puni, so we opted to bifurcate. Separate juries – one for liability, one for damages. The client concurred.Alan Shore(looking at Brad in amazement): Do you do tongue push-ups?Brad Chase: This is a staff meeting. I encourage all to conduct themselves professionally, keeping in mind that remarks are tantamount to assertive conduct.Paul Lewiston: Lansing versus Mahoney.Brad Chase(speaking rapidly,Alan still looking amused): Hospital settled out. Deposition of Dr. Mahoney is today. We’re hoping to make some movement on that as well.Paul Lewiston: Lot of eyes are on us. We’ve got an HMO on the bubble here waiting to see how this lawsuit is restored. I assume you’ve prepared for today’s deposition.Brad Chase: Actually, Denny’s taking it.Paul Lewiston: Denny’s taking the deposition?Brad Chase: Yes.1Paul Lewiston: Wouldn’t it be better to save Denny for trial? Roll out the big gun later?Denny Crane: Roll out the big gun now, this won’t be a trial. Move along, Paul.Paul Lewiston: In re Christine Pauley.Alan Shore: Mine. Ex-girlfriend. Tried to kill me.Paul Lewiston: This is the commitment proceeding?Alan Shore: She was committed. This hearing is to secure her release.Lori Colson: Wait a second. She tried to kill you?Alan Shore: She did.Lori Colson: And now she wants out?Alan Shore: She does.Lori Colson: And you’re trying to help her get out?Alan Shore: I am.Sally, visibly upset, picks up her things and leaves the room.Alan enters Sally’s office. Sally is sitting at her desk rifling through papers.Alan Shore: You’re angry with me.Sally Heep: I’m just busy. Okay? Shuffles papers. Alan turns to leave. I’m not gonna even discuss the absurdity of representing an ex-lover who tried to kill you. But how do you not at least tell me? That isn’t something that I should know?Alan Shore: I wanted to surprise you with it.Sally Heep: You think it’s funny? You think it’s appropriate for me to learn about it in a staff meeting?Alan Shore: Forgive me. As you can imagine, I haven’t kept up with the boyfriend/girlfriend regulations. Sits down. What I can say is she’s a client and a friend that I’m trying to free from the clutches of an overreaching asylum.Inside a rather sterile meeting room at the psychiatric hospital. Alan and Christine are sitting behind a table, facing a panel of doctors, three men and a woman. There is a security guard behind Alan and Christine.Dr. Gill: You keep calling it an asylum. This is a psychiatric hospital.Alan Shore: I mean no disrespect, doctor, but the word “hospital” implies treatment.Dr. Gill: And she has gotten treatment.Alan Shore: Is she less crazy?Dr. Gill: Excuse me?Alan Shore: As a result of your treat. Is she less crazy?Dr. Gill: Crazy is not a medically recognized term, Mr. Shore. As I’ve just explained, Christine has what theD.S.M. refers to as intermittent explosive disorder.Alan Shore: Then please tell us. Is she less intermittently explosive?Dr. Gill: She has improved.Alan Shore: And to what do you attribute that?Dr. Gill: Primarily the pharmacological regimen.Alan Shore: Pills.Dr. Gill: Twenty-five milligrams each of three different antipsychotics administered three times daily.Alan Shore: Then maybe it’s a good thing she’s here. That sounds like a very complicated protocol to administer on one’s own.Dr. Gill: IndeedAlan Shore: How do you know she actually takes these pills?Dr. Gill: Obviously, we keep very careful records.Alan Shore: I’m sure you do. But, hypothetically, suppose there was a patient who felt she didn’t belong here. Felt she’d entered your hospital quite troubled, but essentially sane, and was being driven insane by this institution? Maybe she’s a New York University graduate. A respected attorney. A charming, intelligent, sensitive, funny woman. A fully functional person with the exception of one incident. So each and every time your orderlies come around with your 75 milligrams of powerful antipsychotics for her to swallow, she hides the2tablets under her tongue and saves them day after day. A growing collection of thoroughly unnecessary medication that her primary psychiatric caregiver wants to shove down her throat.Dr. Gill: Are you asking if this hypothetical scenario could happen?Alan Shore: I am.Dr. Gill: It could not. We keep very careful records.Alan gestures as if understanding. Christine proceeds to take handful upon handful of pills out of her pocket and set them on the table in front of her. It appears to be between 100 to 200 pills. The doctors look vexed.Inside conference room at CP&S. The deposition has started.Dr. Mahoney: Look, I don’t see why I need to be present.Brad Chase: A part of her emotional distress claim goes to how you informed her of her husband’s death.Dr. Mahoney: I’ve been a surgeon for 30 years. If there’s a pleasant want to tell a family a patient died…. Denny Crane: We’ll need your response to her account. Acknowledges Carrie Lansing and Attorney Kevin Ripley walking towards them.Brad Chase: Speaking to Lansing and Ripley. We’re in Conference Room 1. We’ll be right in.Atty. Kevin Ripley: Thank you.Dr. Mahoney: Why can’t I just review the transcript? I really don’t want to sit in that room.Brad Chase: We don’t need you to do or say anything. We just need you to sit there and listen.Paul Lewiston comes to the doorway.Paul Lewiston: Brad? One second please.Brad meets Paul in the hallway.Paul Lewiston: You can’t let him first chair this deposition.Brad Chase: Paul, he’s insisting.Paul Lewiston: First of all, the case could turn on this proceeding. And second, as I mentioned, we have several medical corporations, potential clients, taking a key interest….Denny approaches Paul and Brad in the hallway.Denny Crane: Hey, guys. What are we talking about? It looks interesting from afar. Anything I might enjoy? Paul Lewiston: What’s this case about, Denny? The deposition you’re about to conduct. What’s it about again? Denny Crane: A man died during angioplasty, leaving him dead. Tragic.Back inside Conference Room 1Carrie Lansing: He even described the procedure as common. So for—Denny Crane: One of your allegations goes to how Dr. Mahoney informed you of the tragic outcome.Carrie Lansing: He just came out and said my husband had a cardiac arrest and was dead. He just turned and walked away. But he said he was going to talk to me later.Denny Crane: Do you make room for the possibility that Dr. Mahoney himself was devastated at this time? Carrie Lansing: The patient was my husband. Whatever pain he had, I---Denny Crane: These are difficult questions. You’re, um, 40 pounds lighter since before your husband’s death? Carrie Lansing: Yes.Denny Crane: Dating again?Atty. Kevin Ripley: Objection. This certainly has no relevance.Denny Crane: All objections have been waived till the trial. Except for the form of the questions, sport. This your first deposition?Atty. Kevin Ripley: This is not my first deposition.Denny Crane: Well then play by the rules. Don’t make me move for costs, which she’ll end up paying. Addresses Carrie Lansing. In this last year, would you say you’ve had more or less sex since the time of your husbands’—Atty. Kevin Ripley: Objection!Brad Chase: All right. This is a tough deposition for everybody. Let’s just try to get through it. Denny.Denny Crane: More or less sex this past year?3Carrie Lansing: My physical relationship with my husband had waned, partly because of his heart condition. We remained very much in love.Denny Crane: And did you go on lots of trips together, you and your husband?Carrie Lansing: Some. He was very busy with work.Denny Crane: Did he regularly tell you how incredibly—incredibly beautiful you are? Did you wear this perfume when your husband was alive?Carrie Lansing: I believe I did.Denny Crane: That’s magnificent.Atty. Kevin Ripley: All right. This deposition is over.Denny Crane: Why?Atty. Kevin Ripley: It’s over. Come on, Carrie.Denny Crane: All right. Off to court we go, cub scout.Atty. Kevin Ripley: Oh, we’ll be going into court all right. We’re done here.Back to the meeting room at the psychiatric hospital, same day.Dr. Bender: The fact that she was secretly refusing to take her medication does not persuade us of progress. Alan Shore: But it does show she’s capable of going six months unmedicated without incident.Dr. Bender: Mr. Shore, you were her lover.Alan Shore: Any bias that I might have in favor of Christine would be more than offset by the fact that she tried to kill me.Martha Silver: Frankly, we’re insulted by that. It might get you a spot on Good Morning America, but—Alan Shore: I’m trying to get her a spot of freedom.Dr. Bender: Freedom is a privilege, Mr. Shore, not a right.Alan Shore: A privilege?Dr. Bender: Yes, and it’s revocable. Especially if you try to run someone over with an automobile.Alan Shore: Christine Pauley is well. You have an affidavit from three different independent psychiatrists who evaluated her.Dr. Bender: And likely made her sign waivers as soon as you paid them.Alan Shore: The only reason you’re holding her is you’re afraid of being sued should she do something.Dr. Bender: We’re afraid she’ll hurt herself or someone else, you cynical snot! Is liability to the hospital a factor? Yes. We can’t treat patients out of bankruptcy.Alan Shore: I hardly see how that makes me a snot. She’s in here because of one isolated incident she’s not likely to repeat.Dr. Bender: Oh, you can gaze into some crystal ball—Alan Shore: I can gaze into her. I saw the look in her eyes the day she was brought here. I saw the look in her eyes which led to her being brought here. She had that look then. She does not have it now.Martha Silver: Who would be this woman’s guardian? Why is no one here to present—Alan Shore: Her parents would serve as guardians. You’ll find their affidavit—Martha Silver: They live in Illinois.Alan Shore: Where Christine would be going upon release.Martha Silver: And until she gets to Illinois?Alan Shore: Until then, I will be her guardian.Dr. Bender: Miss Pauley?Christine Pauley: Well, at the risk of also sounding biased, I agree with him. This is not a parole board. This is not a prison. As you say Dr. Gill, this is a hospital. And when patients are healed, they’re let out of hospitals.4Sally is in the kitchenette, pensively staring ahead, holding coffee, leaning against the counter. Lori Colson enters the room.Lori Colson: Coffee not good?Sally Heep: Oh, no. I was just thinking about something.Lori Colson: Yeah, I do that. Thinking about what?Sally Heep: It’s kind of private.Lori Colson: You know, I’d stake out a little distance from that Shore guy, Sally. He tends to leave people’s minds a little worse off than he finds them. His old girlfriend, case in point.Alan enters the kitchenette.Alan Shore: You two discussing cases? I wasn’t aware you provided emotional counsel as well as legal, Lori. That’s quite a perk.Lori Colson: A woman tries to kill you. You go to represent her. You don’t think there’s a pathology at play here? I refer to yours.Alan Shore: I got the reference. Thank you. Speaking as an enormously unlikeable person, I find it difficult to maintain grudges against all those who wanna kill me. Don’t you? Lori smiles, and starts to leave. Yes, you’ll perhaps find that witty comeback in your office.That night. Denny is in his office with Brad.Brad Chase: He’s got a motion for costs. For sanctions. He’s ordered a transcript so he can read back to the judge what you said today.Denny Crane: Good. Then I won’t have to bother trying to remember.Brad Chase: Damn it, Denny. You’re way out of line. This woman has just lost a husband. You’re asking her questions about her sex life, her perfume.Denny Crane: I know what I’m doing.Brad Chase: Which is?Denny Crane: It’ll come to me.Brad Chase: That lawyer is going to pick you apart in open court tomorrow.Denny Crane: Let him try. Denny Crane.Brad Chase: Listen to me. Do you know why I was brought here? The firm thinks that you are becoming a liability. They wanted me to control you.Denny Crane: Who thinks I’m a liability?Brad Chase: It doesn’t matter.Denny Crane: Who?Brad Chase: Denny. Where you were once something to aspire to, you’re now becoming something to parody. You walk around saying “Denny Crane. Denny Crane,” like it’s supposed to intimidate or conjure up awe.You’re a complete joke. If that gets me fired, so be it. I’m saying it just the same. You know why? ‘Cause I love you. I adore you. But it hurts to see you deteriorating into a---Denny Crane: Get the hell out of my office.Brad leaves. Denny is sitting alone.Outside Alan’s hotel room, same night. Alan is opening the door and he and Christine are walking in. Christine Pauley: You didn’t have to get me a hotel room.Alan Shore: I didn’t. You’re staying in my place.Christine Pauley: I beg your pardon?Alan Shore: I won’t get fresh.Christine Pauley: You live in a hotel?Alan Shore: I do.Christine Pauley: What happened to your big grotesque house with your more grotesque swimming pool and your even more grotesque rumpus room?Alan Shore: I sold it. I require a lot of fresh towels and nightly turndown service.Christine Pauley: Why would you live in a ho---. Oh, I , I see. The comfort of being able to check out on a whim. You know, as much as you explained it, you’ve never really explained it.Alan Shore: I demand only one thing in a relationship, Christine. That I remain utterly alone.5Christine Pauley: Nice out, Alan.Alan Shore: I’m sorry?Christine Pauley: Even in conversation, you always have a nice out.CP&S conference room, same night. Present are Brad, Lori, Paul, Walter Seymore and other unnamed CP&S lawyers.Brad Chase: I did my best to control him.Paul Lewiston: And the other attorney has brought a motion for sanctions?Brad Chase: Which he wants to argue himself.Walter Seymore: My God.Paul Lewiston: We count on you to help prevent these kinds of situations, Brad.Brad Chase: Paul, I’m a relatively junior partner. What exactly do you expect me to do?Walter Seymore: If that man gets up in open court—Lori Colson: Excuse me. The man can still handle himself in court.Paul Lewiston: Oh, please. The only possible good that could come form his—(pauses). Is he adamant about arguing this himself?Brad Chase: I’m afraid so.Paul Lewiston: Well. I guess we can’t say no. His name still is first on the letterhead. Let him argue.The next morning. Alan is in bed, waking up. The other side of the bed is empty. He looks toward the living room suite and sees Christine on the sofa, dressed and reading the paper.Alan Shore: We’re up early.Christine Pauley: I’ve been up since 6:00, actually. I’ve been waiting for you to get up so I could say good-bye. There’s a cab outside waiting.Alan Shore: I thought your flight’s at 11:00.Christine Pauley: I’m going to the airport early. Ridge upped the security to level mauve.Alan Shore: Let me drive you. Starts to put on pantsChristine Pauley: No. I, I’d prefer to--. Thank you. For getting me out. For forgiving me. Laughs. Well, that’s it, creep. Kisses his cheek.Alan Shore: Hmm.Christine Pauley: Better go.Alan Shore: Call me when you land.Denny’s office. Denny is stuffing papers into his briefcase, listening to Brad.Brad Chase: I just think I should argue.Denny Crane: Why? So you can control me? Nobody controls me.Brad Chase: Denny, you’re the subject of the hearing. I’m certainly gonna have more objectivity—Denny Crane: I’ll argue the motion. When Denny Crane gets attacked, he stands up for himself. I don’t need you or anybody else controlling or protecting me.Brad Chase: You’re not going to court in this state.Denny Crane: Brad, you can join me or not. Your choice. Denny leaves as Lori enters.Lori Colson: What’s going on?Brad Chase: He still plans to argue it himself.Lori Colson: The partners said let him.Brad Chase: I know. But I thought—Lori Colson: You know why they’re saying ‘Let him.’? A public debacle on record is just what they need to convince the full partnership in January to broom him.Brad Chase: What?Lori Colson: Yeah. They want him to self-destruct, Brad. They obviously think losing a few clients is worth losing him. You cannot let him argue this motion. Brad leaves.6Alan and Sally walking together down a CP&S hallway.Sally Heep: You’re her guardian, and she slept in your hotel room last night.Alan Shore: You see, you get upset when I don’t tell you these things. But then, when I do—sighs. She’s gone to Chicago. It’s –Sally Heep: It’s not about her.Alan Shore: ExcellentSally Heep: It’s, it’s us. Is there an us?Alan Shore: Sally, I know this seems difficult. You know what? At his office door he stops walking andturns to face her. Can we go shopping for shoes? Or a new dress? Something revealing for the office party. Soft,but tight. Alan’s office door opens, revealing Christine.Christine Pauley: Alan.Alan Shore: What are you doing here?Christine Pauley: My flight was canceled. I thought you might feel like an early lunch.Alan Shore: Christine Pauley, Sally Heep.Christine Pauley: Hi. It’s nice to meet you.Sally Heep: Hi.Alan Shore: Your flight was canceled?Christine Pauley: I’m rescheduled at 4:30. This is why I’ve refused to fly for the last two years. That, and I’ve been locked up. So can I steal you for lunch?Alan Shore: Actually, no. We were just about to go on—Sally Heep: It’s okay, really. She turns and starts walking away.Christine Pauley: Very nice to meet you. Sally, still walking away, raises her hand to wave “bye”. Maybe I shouldn’t have come. Alan motions her into his office. Truth is, you weren’t my first choice for lunch. I called a few friends. Everybody seems to need a little distance. It was all like, “Oh, Christine. How nice to hear from you.”Alan Shore: You’re smart enough to expect that.Christine Pauley: Never got it from you. Are you and Sally –Alan Shore: We’re seeing each other.Christine Pauley: Oh. She seemed nice.Alan Shore: She is.Christine Pauley: Certainly attractive.Alan Shore: There’s that.Christine Pauley: Well. It’ll be easier when I get to Chicago. Easier to start over there, I think.Alan Shore: I agree.Christine Pauley: Yeah. So. Lunch?Alan Shore: On your next visit He helps her on with coat.Christine Pauley: Well. Goodbye. Again. Uh—Alan kisses her briefly on the mouth.Alan Shore: Good-bye Christine.She leaves as Alan watches her go.Interior court hallway. Brad and Denny are walking down the hall talking.Brad Chase: Denny, listen to me. Some of the partners are coming down to watch the motion. And not in support. They’re hoping you crash in there. They’re hoping to get some leverage to be able to say at the partnership meeting “it’s time to take Denny Crane out of the game.”Denny Crane: What game? Denny and Brad enter the courtroom.Inside courtroom. Jerry Austin, Sam Halpern and Paul Rober from CP&S are sitting in the galley.Atty. Kevin Ripley: I don’t know if he was trying to humiliate her or hit on her. It wasn’t clear. What was clear was the indecency of it. This is what lawyering has degenerated to. Carrie Lansing lost her husband. He’s probing her about her sex life. It was a blatant abuse of our process. It was an embarrassment to the integrity of our profession. This attorney should be sanctioned severely, your honor. A message has to be sent to the bar, that our bar is raised higher than an episode of reality television. Denny Crane demeaned Carrie Lansing. He demeaned our court system, and he should be dealt with.7Judge Morgan Baker: Mr. Crane?Brad Chase: Denny, I have a good feel for this. Can I take it?Denny Crane: I’ll take it. Looking at judge. This is, um, pretty powerful stuff. I can see Mr. Ripley’s a very powerful man. And that’s a big thing with lawyers, isn’t it? Power. Fear of feeling weak. I’ve seen it before. Attorneys coming up against Denny Crane. They jump and stomp and shake their fists and bellow with impassioned rage. It makes quite a demonstration, doesn’t it? When you cut through the merits, this lady has alleged in her complaint loss of consortium. Legal terms meaning sex and affection. And if she’s enjoying sex and affection, it’s relevant. It’s a mitigating factor. I’m entitled to explore it. Mr. Ripley may not like it, but it’s legitimate. And, I may add, that I conducted my probe in the relative privacy of a closed conference room. Mr. Powerful Man made it much more public with his impassioned chest-thumping in a courtroom.Atty. Kevin Ripley: I object to this.Denny Crane: Oh, go ahead and pound the table. I’ll tell you what I object to. We have an offer on the table you so love to pound. An offer I can’t discuss because the settlement talks have been sealed. Suffice it to say it’s on the high side, the extreme high side, considering the fact that liability is not certain. Mr. Lansing had a preexisting heart condition. But instead of taking the offer, powerful guys like Mr. Ripley want to go to trial. Why? Because I’m the opponent. It’s a coup to beat the big guy. Well, what if you don’t? You demean the profession, Mr. Powerful Guy. You’re using your client to get a notch. You’re making Carrie Lansing go through the ordeal of a trial for your own ego.Atty. Kevin Ripley: Objection!Denny Crane: A trial you may lose, in which case she gets nothing!Atty. Kevin Ripley: Objection!Denny Crane: Oh, but if you’re loud enough—Atty. Kevin Ripley: Objection!Denny Crane: Forceful enough and strong enough, she may never realize that you blew it.The CP&S attorneys are looking at Denny. Brad smiles slightly.Sally is looking through books in the CP&S library. Alan walks up behind her, unnoticed, pulls back her hair and starts nuzzling her ear. Sally smiles.Sally Heep: Brad? She smiles and turns to face him.Alan Shore: Funny. You’d like me to feel threatened, wouldn’t you? I may not be able to talk as fast, but my tongue is certainly more versatile. He starts pushing back her hair. Sally appears to be looking at someone behind him. Alan turns to see Lori standing in the hallway.Alan Shore: You disapprove of me. That warms my cockles.Lori Colson smiles and walks away.Alan Shore: I’m afraid something’s come up.Sally Heep: Oh, don’t tell me—Alan Shore: Her flight left an hour ago. She’s gone. So. Shopping. Maybe not shoes. Butsomething….slippery to perhaps slide out of later.Sally Heep: I’m not that easy.Alan Shore: Well, I am. Sally throws her arms around him, kissing him, and swinging him around, pushing him against the library stacks.That night. Alan and Sally are in a bar.Sally Heep: Do you feel responsible for her being in there?Alan Shore: I certainly was a precipitating factor.Sally Heep: Is she well now?Alan Shore: I think so. But perhaps I’m inclined to believe that. You might come to value my latitude on these matters a little more fully on the day you try to kill me.Sally Heep: Laughs. I miss you. Leans over and kisses him. I have a friend who has this amazing house in Vermont. Maybe for Columbus weekend we could sneak up there.Alan Shore: I love Vermont. Would you allow me to cover your body in maple syrup? As he says this, their heads very close together, Alan turns his face slightly and spots Christine across the room, in the doorway, looking at them. Excuse me. Gets up, crosses the crowded room to the door, but she’s gone.8The next morning. Alan is pouring himself coffee in the kitchenette and talking to Tara.Tara Wilson: Where does she stay?Alan Shore: I have no idea. I wouldn’t even know where to go look for her.Tara Wilson: Well, she clearly knows where to look for you. Alan, she is stalking you.Alan Shore: She’s not—Tara Wilson: Crazy? She tried to kill you. She was institutionalized. Now she’s out, and she’s stalking you. You said that you were her legal guardian.Alan Shore: That’s a technicality.Tara Wilson: Well, you may have certain rights to have her recommitted.Alan Shore: She hasn’t done anything to warrant that.Tara Wilson: At the very least you could get a restraining order.Alan Shore: There’s nothing to warrant that either.Tara Wilson: Do you really want to wait till there is? Alan looks at her, then leaves.Paul is walking down a CP&S hallway and approaches Brad in the library.Paul Lewiston: Brad. You hear? He won the motion and settled the case.Brad Chase: You must be disappointed. I know what you were hoping for, Paul.Paul Lewiston: Let me tell you something, my friend. I have loved and admired Denny Crane a lot longer than you have. We all want him to be great.Brad Chase: If you loved him, you wouldn’t have wanted his demise to be public. Brad walks away.Denny is seated at his desk, smoking a cigar, with his back toward the door, looking out his window. Someone knocks.Brad Chase: Hey.Denny Crane: Hey. The plaintiff lost his motion for sanctions. Accepted our offer. The case is over. Settled. Done.Brad Chase: I heard. Denny, you did an incredible job. I think you turned his own client against him in there. Denny Crane: Swivels his chair to face Brad. Is that what you think? Am I now to put stock in what you think?Brad Chase: Denny, I just came here to congratulate you.Denny Crane: I don’t need your praise. Hmm. Nods toward his credenza full of awards. Hardware. Trunks full of praise.Brad Chase: Denny—Denny Crane: I want your respect! I’m senior partner. Respect goes with the job. Not to mention I’ve earned it. Sits down. Sighs. I’ve earned it. Don’t you think I feel the wagons circling?Alan is standing, looking over papers on his desk and talking into a dictaphone.Alan Shore: Now comes the plaintiff here and after the alleges and charges as follows -- Count one. On September 11 in the year of our – There’s a knock, the door opens, it’s Christine.Christine Pauley: I’m so, so sorry. I came to see you last night –Alan Shore: Why did you not go to Chicago?Christine Pauley: I decided to collect a few letters of recommendation before I leave. If I’m going to try –Alan Shore: You could do that by phone.Christine Pauley: I could, and I plan to. But Bernie Levinson, senior partner at my old firm, insists on meeting me in person. Evidently, he wants to be sure I’m not nuts. So I’m seeing you at 2:00. I fly out at 6:00.Alan Shore: All right. So why’d you come to find me last night?Christine Pauley: You weren’t picking up your cell. And—Alan, I’m so sorry. I had no idea you were on a date. I shouldn’t have come at all. I realized that and I left as soon as I saw the expression on your face. And—I truly, truly apologize.Alan Shore: I have to be honest, Christine. It scared the hell out of me.Christine Pauley: Believe me. If I had thought for a second that you were on a date—Sally—is it, is it serious? Alan Shore: I really don’t want to talk about it.9。

Ah well, would you go into more depth . . .Lori Colson: I am so bored.Brad Chase: Shhh.Lori Colson: I need to get back to the office. I have so much work to do on the Meyers case.Mr. Milner: The sample provided on the top contains the same content as the original on the bottom. Namely, they are both the subject’s signature. No pun intended. chuckles Namely.Attorney: So, Mr. Millner, can we . . .Lori Colson: This is actually killing me. Part of me is dying.Brad Chase: Shhh.Bomber: I have a bomb.A chorus of gasps.Lori Colson: This is better.Bomber: Remember me, Judge? Fifteen to twenty for aggravated manslaughter? Well, I got out today. And you know what? I’m still aggravated!Brad Chase arises, and approaches Bomber.Bomber: Sit down.Brad Chase: Do you mind? We’re trying to conduct a trial here.Bomber runs over to the witness chair, and grabs Mr. Milner by the jacket.Bomber: Get over here!Mr. Milner whimpers.Bomber: D—did you hear me? I said I had a bomb!Brad Chase: No, you don’t. And here’s why. A—You said manslaughter, which means that you didn’t have the guts for murder one the first time around.Bomber: What?Brad Chase: B—If you’re clever enough to make that aggravation joke, you’re clever enough to know that threatening to have a bomb carries a much lesser sentence than actually wearing one. C—That coat is fairly svelte. And D—If you really had a bomb, you wouldn’t need to have a hostage. Would you?Bomber: I do have a bomb.Brad Chase: Come on. We’ve got two more expert witnesses to get through by lunch. To Mr. Milner: I’m assuming you could speed through your testimony just to keep up with our schedule.Mr. Milner: Uh, huh.Bomber: You sit down, or I’ll blow this thing!Brad Chase: You don’t have a bomb.Bomber: Yes, I do!Brad Chase: No, you don’t.Bomber: Yes, I do!Brad Chase: Prove it.Judge Morgan Baker: Mr. Chase, perhaps . . .Brad Chase: I was a hostage negotiator as a Marine.

Fine.Bomber opens his trench coat and reaches in, as Brad Chase slugs him, knocking him out cold. Judge arises to watch Brad Chase open the trench coat to reveal a large, home-made bomb strapped to his chest and abdomen. A chorus of gasps, including Judge Morgan Baker, who collapses into his chair. Brad Chase: What do you know?[credits]Denny Crane’s OfficeDenny Crane: What’s that thing?Alan Shore:wearing a Christmas tree star topper with multiple flashing light modes on his head It’s an ornament. Christmas tree ornament.Denny Crane: Can’t go to court like that.Alan Shore: Of course not. worried smile You okay, Denny.Denny Crane:sighs It’s this case. It seems like I’ve done nothing else but work on it for the last three weeks. Alan Shore: What in particular about the case is bothering you?Denny Crane: I don’t know what it’s about. I—it’s . . . well . . . If you, say, were going to briefly describe it to someone who was clueless, what would you say?Alan Shore: I’d say we represent a big drug company.Denny Crane: Yes. That’s the part I like.Alan Shore: Then, I’d say they’re being sued by a woman who claims she was wrongfully removed from the company’s clinical trial of a potent new diabetes medicine.Denny Crane: That’s where I lose track.Alan Shore: Special pills make woman happy. Company take pills away. Woman sue to get back on special pills.Denny Crane: Got it.Martin Jeffries:entering Denny.Denny Crane: Martin. Hey. shaking his hand Martin. You remember Alan Shore.Martin Jeffries turns to Alan Shore just in time to see the Christmas star blinking.Alan Shore: It’s an ornament. I head the office cheer committee.Martin Jeffries: Since I received no late-night call last night, I assume we didn’t settle.Denny Crane: We informed your in-house counsel.Martin Jeffries: I like to hear things from you. I feel I have a direct relationship with you.Denny Crane: We didn’t settle.Martin Jeffries: I don’t really understand this. Every legal opinion I’ve gotten says the merits fall one-sidedly in our favor.Alan Shore: Legal opinions only go to the law, Mr. Jeffries. I had opportunity to view the plaintiff’s videotaped deposition. She comes off as an extremely sympathetic and likable person.Martin Jeffries: And?Alan Shore: You don’t. Our fear, and the plaintiff’s hope is that the jury will like her and feel for her pain, and attempt to alleviate said pain with millions and millions of your dollars.Martin Jeffries: I was under the impression I hired attorneys who could employ reason and intellect to offset the emotion inuring to the plaintiff’s favor. Did I hire the wrong law firm, Mr. Shore?Alan Shore: Certainly not, sir. You’ve hired the best.Hallway of Crane Poole & SchmidtLori Colson: Paul. showing him a DVD-ROM The Meyers age discrimination case—we just got the DVD-ROM delivered. Sixty five hundred pages of McNamara documents. Every useless document they could dump on here.Paul Lewiston: Well, they’re probably not ready and this is meant to slow us down.Lori Colson: Right. And they want to force us to ask for a continuance because they know Judge Simmons won’t give them any.Paul Lewiston: Well, we won’t be asking for one. Uh, Miss Heep? Uh, Miss Wilson? We have a trial next week. Lori will fill you in. I want you to pore through this document. The likelihood is it contains nothing relevant but we can’t take any chances. Lori will tell you what to look for.Sally Heep: I’m sorry. Um, can you get somebody to take my place on this, please?Paul Lewiston: You have something else more pressing?Sally Heep: No, but I prefer not to work on this case.Paul Lewiston: Why not?Sally Heep: It’s personal.Paul Lewiston: You are making it professional.Sally Heep: I’m—I’m—I’m just not—I—I—I’m uncomfortable working with Tara.Paul Lewiston: Because?Sally Heep: I used to sleep with Alan Shore, and now she does.Tara Wilson:pointing at Lori Colson And she wants to.Lori Colson: I do not!Lori Colson’s OfficeLori Colson opens the door and waves Tara Wilson in.Lori Colson: How dare you make a remark to one of the most senior partners of this firm that I want to sleep with another associate here? Even if I did want to sleep with Alan Shore, which I assure you I do not, but even if your remark was truthful, it would not make it any less inappropriate.Tara Wilson: You’re right. I apologize.Lori Colson: Do you bear some ill will towards me?Tara Wilson: No. I suppose I regressed to the childish defense that everybody else is doing it.Lori Colson: But I’m not doing it, Tara. I’m not sleeping with Mr. Shore, which you very well know.Tara Wilson: I only said you wanted to. And again, I apologize. My remark was, as you say, completely inappropriate, however accurate.Tara Wilson exits, Lori Colson mocking her last words as she leaves.Courtroom #2Marybeth Hewitt: I’ve had type II diabetes since I was 25. It’s been the same medicines pretty much the whole time.Atty. Greg Montero: And when you were invited to participate in a clinical trial of SV113, what did your daily regimen become?Marybeth Hewitt: I took one pill in the morning when I woke up.Atty. Greg Montero: That’s all?Marybeth Hewitt: That was it. I had more energy. I was even losing weight. And no more needles. It was a godsend, until they took it away.Atty. Greg Montero: And how did that happen?Marybeth Hewitt: My doctor told me that the company had kicked me off the test. He said that I had broken the rules of the trial, but I didn’t. I didn’t do anything wrong.Atty. Greg Montero: And after you were taken off the test?Marybeth Hewitt: My health deteriorated again rapidly.Atty. Greg Montero: Can you tell us your prognosis today?Marybeth Hewitt: I’m dying. I’ve got probably five to six years, unless something changes drastically.Alan Shore: What reason did the company give for removing you from the SV113 study?Marybeth Hewitt: Noncompliance. But I complied.Alan Shore: You’re a heavy smoker. Is that correct, Mrs. Hewitt?Marybeth Hewitt: I quit.Alan Shore: When did you quit, if I may ask?Marybeth Hewitt: A week before the study.Alan Shore: Just like that? Two packs a day, cold turkey?Marybeth Hewitt: My life depended on it.Alan Shore: Some of the doctors and clinicians, uh, smelled cigarette smoke on you during your exams. Marybeth Hewitt: My husband’s a chain smoker. It was his smoke they smelled on my clothes.Alan Shore: Amazing. You smoked two packs a day, you live with a chain smoker, and you’re able to just quit, cold turkey.Atty. Greg Montero: Objection.Judge Dale Wallace: Sustained.Alan Shore: Mrs. Hewitt, 177 million people in the world have diabetes. This drug study is the only way to get SV113—the drug you yourself called a godsend—approved for sale. 177 million people are counting on you to follow the rules, Mrs. Hewitt.Marybeth Hewitt: Which I did.Alan Shore: With the stakes being so enormously high, with some 70 thousand people dying every year from diabetes, with a desperate need to develop a drug that can save those lives, you realize how important it is for my client not to take any chances, don’t you?Marybeth Hewitt: I followed all the rules.Hallway of Crane Poole & SchmidtDenny Crane: All in all, I don’t think she hurt us.Alan Shore: She hurt us. I saw the jury. How badly she hurt us . . . Where’s our expert?Denny Crane: Should be waiting in the conference room.Alan Shore: I’ll meet you there.Denny Crane: Sally. May I offer you one little piece of advice?Sally Heep: Okay.Denny Crane: You’re an extremely beautiful young woman.Sally Heep: Thanks for the tip.Denny Crane: That’s not the advice. The advice is be on the ware of lecherous senior partners who are looking for the slightest excuse to plant a big wet one on you.Sally Heep: Excuse me?Denny Crane: They lurk. And when beautiful women such as yourself stand under the mistletoe . . .Sally Heep looks up at the mistletoe installed at the top of the doorway under which she is standing. Alan Shore:grabbing Denny Crane before he can make another move Let’s go meet our expert, Denny. Denny Crane: Mm, boy. I had the blood flow going.Alan Shore: No doubt.Conference Room at CP&SThere is a beautiful woman in high heels serving herself water while waiting.Denny Crane: Dr. Gerard?Dr. Amanda Gerard: Yes.Denny Crane: Denny Crane; single. Alan Shore.Dr. Amanda Gerard:holding out her hand to shake Alan Shore’s Hello.Alan Shore: Very nice to meet you.Alan Shore and Denny Crane nod at each other knowingly.Dr. Amanda Gerard: Well, should we get started?Alan Shore: We should. I’m afraid it’s gonna be a very long night. I’ll need to go over every inch of you with a fine-tooth comb. flustered I beg your pardon. Your testimony. I’ll need to go over your testimony with the comb.Dr. Amanda Gerard: Where are we going to do this?Denny Crane: Right here.And a little peacock fight breaks out, as the “boys” elbow each other behind their backs, until Dr. G looks at them. Then, they look rather well-behaved, and Alan Shore tucks his right hand into his jacket, the height of decorum, as usual, while Denny Crane smiles charmingly.The Buddha BarTara Wilson:talking on her cell phone It’s not my case, Renee. It’s Lori’s. I have no idea where she is. Hang on. To Brad Chase: Do you know where Lori is?Brad Chase: No. I gotta run. I got that dinner thing.Tara Wilson: Oh, go.Brad Chase: Need a ride anywhere?Tara Wilson: No, thanks. My car’s in the garage. All right, so what’s the big emergency? Well if you have him on the phone, then ask him.Atty. Barr:also talking on his cell phone I don’t want anything. I’m offering. Since we turned over that CD last second, we won’t oppose a continuance if you people want it.Tara Wilson: Say you need to page Lori, ask if she can call him later, and then get his cell phone number. Atty. Barr: Yeah, that’ll be great. My number’s (617) 555-0194. Thanks.Tara Wilson: Well, well, well.Atty. Barr: Can I get a beer?Tara Wilson takes her beer glass with her, walks toward AD Atty, and bumps into him, pouring the beer on him.Tara Wilson: Oh!Atty. Barr: Oh! Fantastic.Tara Wilson: Oh, I’m terribly sorry.Atty. Barr: It’s okay.Tara Wilson:helping him wipe the beer off his clothes How embarrassing. I’ll pay for the dry cleaning. I assure you.Atty. Barr: It’s okay, really.Tara Wilson smiles, laughing lightly.Conference Room at Crane Poole & SchmidtAlan Shore: So, besides Ms. Hewitt, there were 56 other people removed from the study?Dr. Amanda Gerard: For a drug of this magnitude, we have to be extremely cautious.Alan Shore: But what motivated your caution?Dr. Amanda Gerard looks evasive.Alan Shore: Please tell me it was more than a hunch. After all, these people do suffer from a crippling, life-threatening disease, Doctor.Dr. Amanda Gerard: As do I.Alan Shore: I’m very sorry.Dr. Amanda Gerard: I understand the promise of a drug like this on a very personal level, Mr. Shore. But if it endangers people . . .Alan Shore: How does it endanger people? How are these 57 people endangered by SV113? Fifty-seven—that’s an exceptionally large number of people to purge, isn’t it, Doctor? How were these people endangered? Dr. Amanda Gerard: They weren’t. Marybeth Hewitt and the 56 others were on a different drug. It was a slight variation from SV113 that we had only begun to investigate.Alan Shore: These people, they knew they were on this other drug?Dr. Amanda Gerard: No.Alan Shore: So you gave an experimental, unapproved drug to 57 people, and told them they were taking something else?Dr. Amanda Gerard: But as soon as we became aware of the side effects . . .Alan Shore: The headaches?Dr. Amanda Gerard:thinking before talking There was onset of acute liver damage at about 6 weeks. There was one prior subject who went first, and complications . . . Please don’t look at me as if . . .Alan Shore: What could possibly have impelled you to delude these people?Dr. Amanda Gerard: You can’t understand.Alan Shore scoffs.Dr. Amanda Gerard: It takes years to get a drug approved. And when you spend your life . . . I thought—the company thought that we had the next polio vaccine . . . or penicillin.Alan Shore: Except your penicillin turned out to be a poison.Dr. Amanda Gerard: But as soon as we discovered it, the company shut the study down. That’s why Mrs. Hewitt was taken off the drug she thinks was SV113—to prevent liver failure.Buddha BarAtty. Barr: So you’re a therapist?Tara Wilson:De facto therapist. I’m really a flight attendant. But everybody tells me their problems.Atty. Barr: Oh, do you solve them?Tara Wilson: I do, actually.Atty. Barr: Well, tell me mine.Tara Wilson: I’m sorry?Atty. Barr: My problem. What am I lamenting at this very moment?Tara Wilson: I’m embarrassed to say, actually.Atty. Barr: Uh, uh. I insist. Tell me.Tara Wilson: You’re wishing your girlfriend looked like me.Atty. Barr: Uh, keep going.Tara Wilson: You hate your job.Atty. Barr: Which is?Tara Wilson: I want to say accountant. But I’m gonna to say lawyer.Atty. Barr:rolling his eyes and laughing Oh.Tara Wilson laughs.Atty. Barr: Am—am I that obvious?Tara Wilson: I meet lawyers all the time. They fly a lot. They’re constantly in distress over all the horrible things they have to do for their horrible clients. What are you working on right now?Atty. Barr: A horrible case for a horrible client.Tara Wilson laughs.Atty. Barr: It’s, ah, age discrimination.Tara Wilson: Mm. Plaintiff or defense.Atty. Barr: Defense.Tara Wilson: Ooh, bad boy.Atty. Barr: Mm, hmm. Indeed.Tara Wilson laughs.Conference Room at Crane Poole & SchmidtDr. Amanda Gerard: Whistle-blower?Alan Shore: Yes. Now, there are all sorts of protections to avail yourself of, should you decide you . . .Dr. Amanda Gerard: Hold on a second. You’re advising a witness to turn state’s evidence against your own client?Alan Shore: I am.Dr. Amanda Gerard: Look. I was the one who pushed the study. I was the one who put those people on that drug.Alan Shore: And I suspect you were motivated by the drug’s promise, while your employer was motivated by greed.Dr. Amanda Gerard: Can’t you get disbarred for advising me to . . .Alan Shore: Undoubtedly. And should you lose your license, we could run off to Bali together and become bartenders.Dr. Amanda Gerard: My life is here, in medicine.Alan Shore: Yes. And you are in a unique position to remind your employer they, too, are in the business of medicine, not simply profit. You need to blow the whistle. And what’s more, you want to.Denny Crane’s OfficeDenny Crane is playing piano and singing “It’s a Holly Jolly Christmas.”Denny Crane: “It’s a holly jolly Christmas, best time of the year. I dunno if there’ll be snow, but have a cuppa cheer. It’s a holly jolly Christmas, and when you walk down the street, say hello to friends you know, and everyone you meet.” sees Alan entering Hey!Alan Shore: Denny?Denny Crane: Set to go?Alan Shore: What are you doing?Denny Crane: Oh, there’s an office Christmas party next week. I do a number. It’s good for morale. Helps get me laid. Are we off to court?Alan Shore: Actually, I have a feeling court won’t be going forward today.Denny Crane: What do you mean? Did something happen? Was I in the room when it happened?Alan Shore: It seems our client is guilty of a little noncompliance as well. The actual test that . . . We represent big drug company.Denny Crane: I’m with you.Alan Shore: Big drug company tell patients they take one pill while slipping them another.Denny Crane: You know this how?Alan Shore: Evidently, our expert witness comes armed not only with details but a conscience. She told me. I believe she plans to tell the F.D.A.Denny Crane: Ohh. Whistle-blower. comes around the piano to the couch on which Alan Shore is sitting Did you tell her to whistle-blow?Alan Shore: I might have mentioned it.Denny Crane: Do you know how much this client is worth to this firm and to me personally?Alan Shore: Nuts. I knew there was something I forgot to consider.Denny Crane: Where is this woman?Alan Shore: Hopefully with the U.S. Attorney by now.Assistant: Oh, I’m sorry, uh, Mr. Shore, there’s a Dr. Gerard waiting in reception.Denny Crane: Send her in.Alan Shore: That’s all right. I’ll go and greet her.Denny Crane: Send the woman in here.Alan Shore: Here’s good.Hallway of Crane Poole & SchmidtTara Wilson is exiting the elevator.Lori Colson: Oh, Tara. We have a pretrial conference set on McNamara at two. How are you and Sally doing with the stuff?Tara Wilson: Remember the document that said McNamara was incorporated in “nineteen efficiency-three”? We thought it was a typo?Lori Colson: Yeah.Tara Wilson: Well, code broken. They had a plan called the “Forty Factor,” which was designed to phase out workers who were 40 and older.Lori Colson: And replace them with younger employees who would cost the company less.Tara Wilson: Right. They actually described the plan in memoranda which were archived on the company’s hard drives.Lori Colson: Gotta love the hubris.Tara Wilson: But they then got nervous and did a search and replace to substitute the word “efficiency” for “forty.”Lori Colson: And “nineteen forty-three” became “nineteen efficiency-three.”Tara Wilson: Exactly.Lori Colson: How did you find this out?Tara Wilson: I had drinks with opposing counsel last night. Quite a talker.Lori Colson: Wait a second. He admitted this to you?Tara Wilson: Well, actually, he admitted it to a flight attendant. He didn’t know that I was an attorney for the other side.Lori Colson looks shocked.Tara Wilson: We’re not smiling. Why are we not smiling?Lori Colson: Tara, we can’t use this information.Tara Wilson: I beg your pardon?Lori Colson: You tricked another attorney into violating privilege. You can’t do that.Tara Wilson: Last week, you impersonated a doctor.Lori Colson: Uh! First, that was different. Second, the stakes were life and death.Tara Wilson: Lori!Lori Colson: And third, I was wrong. In retrospect, I would never do it again.Tara Wilson: Well, we have the information, Lori. So if it’s a matter of ethics, we absolutely have to tell the client that we have it.As Tara Wilson takes a bite out of her muffin and goes into her office, Lori Colson sighs, and walks away.Denny Crane’s OfficeDr. Amanda Gerard: I just don’t think I can do it.Alan Shore: Because?Dr. Amanda Gerard: Alan, these people have been very good to me for 10 years.Alan Shore: Now, by “people,” you mean these corporate people who jeopardize public health and safety on a massive scale in order to line their pockets?Dr. Amanda Gerard: They were convinced we had a possible cure based on my representations. I would as soon blow the whistle on myself rather than . . .Alan Shore: Do that then.Dr. Amanda Gerard: And what good would come of it? Really?Denny Crane: May I express a thought? I so rarely get one. And I should preface this by admitting that I’m so far up the ass of big business, I view the world as one giant colon. You’re right to prioritize loyalty, Doctor. Loyalties count for something.Alan Shore: Denny, please don’t . . .Denny Crane: I’m speaking, Alan. Doctors like science, right? They do the math. Well, do the math on whistle-blowing. Nice concept in theory. Appeals to the altruistic inner self and all that.Alan Shore starts to object.Denny Crane: But whistle-blowers end up penniless and ostracized. This thing’ll take years to get to court, while your life will be ruined tomorrow.Alan Shore: Denny, I . . .Denny Crane: And if Alan Shore suggests that you won’t get hurt far worse than your company, he’s lying. Paul Lewiston:opens the door, stepping in What’s going on?Alan Shore: Our client is violating at least a half a dozen criminal laws by secretly testing an unapproved drug—which causes liver failure, by the way—on unwitting human guinea pigs. Dr. Gerard is considering whether to go public. I’m for it, Denny’s against. Do you have a vote? You seem like a man with a scintilla of morality.Dr. Amanda Gerard: Alan, my vote’s the only one that counts, and I’m not going public.Alan Shore: You say that as if you have a choice, Doctor. You see, the only way our client wins here is with your testimony. So, the clerk will swear you in. You’ll take an oath to God, but as a scientist, you are bound to an even higher standard. To believe in God, all you need is faith. To believe in science, you need to see the truth. You need to speak the truth. Am I right? If asked certain questions under oath, you will answer truthfully, because that’s who you are.Dr. Amanda Gerard: You don’t know me. And you would never ask me questions that would torpedo your own case.Alan Shore: Ah. It seems it’s you that doesn’t know me.Dr. Amanda Gerard picks up her coat and purse and exits.Alan Shore: Isn’t it exciting?Lori Colson’s OfficeBrad Chase: It’s absolutely unethical, Tara, for God sakes!Tara Wilson: Please don’t lecture me.Brad Chase: Hey! There’s nothing wrong with a lecture when it’s called for. Attorneys at Crane, Poole & Schmidt do not go undercover as stewardesses to circumvent privilege. It is fraud. It is wrong. It is dishonest. It holds every member of this firm up to disrepute.Lori Colson: Breathe.Brad Chase: And what’s more, it hurts other clients at this firm—mine, Paul’s, Lori’s.Tara Wilson: How?Lori Colson: Breathe.Brad Chase: stage breath Our reputation for fair dealing is at play at every settlement conference, every motion, every trial. If that reputation is compromised, the stain runs to all cases, not just the . . .Lori Colson: Breathe.Brad Chase: Will you stop telling me to breathe! I know how and when to breathe!Tara Wilson: This is about Alan Shore. This is about some not-so-latent hostility . . .Lori Colson: You’re out of line!Tara Wilson: You’re out of line! You fancy the pants off Alan Shore, so as long as we’re preaching honesty, let’s be truthful about that.Lori Colson: You know something, Tara. This does involve Alan. What happened in that bar last night? You heard opposing counsel on his cell phone, you sensed an incredible opportunity, and you asked yourself, “What would Alan Shore do?” and you likely did what he would’ve done.Tara Wilson: Oh, and you’ve never done that—say, last week?Lori Colson: No, I did. And as I said, I was wrong. That’s all. You can go.Tara Wilson:arising What are you gonna do?Lori Colson: Haven’t decided.Tara Wilson: Well, you can’t not use the . . .Lori Colson: I haven’t decided, Tara. You’re dismissed.Tara Wilson exits.Brad Chase: loosening his tie Well, I’m sorry I lost my cool. But you handled that perfectly.Lori Colson: Thank you. Did that have anything to do with Alan?Brad Chase: How does he do it? No matter what I do, no matter what anyone else does, it’s always about Alan.Lori Colson:laughs It’s just a question.Brad Chase: I should be the example for the young associates around here, not him.Lori Colson: Well, Tara’s Alan’s girlfriend.Brad Chase: Why is that? I mean why is she interested in him? I ask you.Lori Colson: Do you fancy Tara, Brad?Brad Chase: No, I’m just speaking in general terms. All the women here . . .Lori Colson: Yeah, you keep saying, “all the women,” but, who specifically, Brad?Brad Chase: Look, you’re missing the point.Lori Colson: Okay. And the point is?Brad Chase: I diffuse a human bomb. Does anyone say, “Oh, are you okay, Brad?” Or “Nice job saving lives, Brad.” No. It’s “Tara circumvented privilege because she’s sleeping with Alan.”Lori Colson: I’m the only one talking about Tara and privilege. Is this about me? We’re buddies, Brad. Talk to me.Brad Chase: Okay. I’d like to be more than buddies. I don’t bring it up because I sense it’s something that you’re not interested in pursuing.Lori Colson: Okay.Brad Chase: Is it something you’d like to pursue?Lori Colson: Um. No.Brad Chase: Right. Anyway, you handled the meeting well.Denny Crane’s OfficeAlan Shore: You surprise me, Denny. I thought you’d be with me on this.Denny Crane: There’s a deeper principle involved here, Alan.Alan Shore: Which is?Denny Crane: Fishing. There’s a fishing lodge in British Columbia. It’s called Nimmo Bay. Best fishing lodge in the world. In the Great Bear Rain Forest.Alan Shore: How does this lodge affect . . .Denny Crane: Want to buy it. Costs lots of money. If I lose this client, I might not be able to buy it.Alan Shore: You have plenty of money.Denny Crane: Yes, to buy other things. This case, this client is earmarked for this fishing lodge.Alan Shore: Well, if I can’t convince you, I guess I can’t convince you.Denny Crane: Alan, I’ll ask Dr. Gerard the questions this afternoon.Alan Shore: I’ve prepared the direct.Denny Crane: I’ll ask her the questions.Alan Shore: I’m questioning the doctor.Denny Crane: No, you aren’t.Alan Shore: Yes, I am.Denny Crane: No, you aren’t.Alan Shore: Yes, I am.Denny Crane: No.Alan Shore: Yes.Denny Crane: No.Alan Shore: Yes.Paul Lewiston:entering This time I will cast a vote. Let me make this simple for you, Mr. Shore.Alan Shore: Please call me Alan. I feel we’ve grown close.。

Boston LegalFrom Whence We CameSeason 1, Episode 12Written by David E. Kelley© 2005 David E. Kelley Productions. All Rights Reserved.Broadcast: January 16, 2005Transcribed by Imamess of JSMP for JSMP and At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, Paul Lewiston and Shirley Schmidt are in the conference room.Shirley Schmidt: How bad is he?Paul Lewiston: He’s intermittently brilliant and nonsensically, often at the same time.Shirley Schmidt: Then he’s technically still in charge of litigation?Paul Lewiston: Which is the reason I called you back. He is an enormous rainmaker, Shirley. And yet…Denny Crane:He comes in and sits down. Lock and load. He looks around the table. Where is everybody? Paul Lewiston: This is an administrative meeting, Denny.Denny Crane: Oh! What the hell am I doing here? He gets up to leave.Shirley Schmidt: Remember the good ole days when you liked to know what was going on? When you could go from your office to the elevator without a roadmap?Denny Crane: Didn’t need a roadmap to find my way around your body, did I, Shirley?Shirley Schmidt: I wouldn’t know. I was usually asleep.Denny Crane: I once had her... and Streisand… at the same time. Remember that?Shirley Schmidt: Hahhh, I do Denny. Ha ha. And not to burst your bubble but that was a female impersonator. Perhaps the penis might have been your cue.Denny Crane: That wasn’t Barbara Streisand?Sally Heep: She comes in. You wanted to see me?Shirley Schmidt: Yes, Sally, bad news. We lost the summary judgment motion on Witchell. Have a seat.Sally Heep: We lost?Shirley Schmidt: The judge held that the magazine, while possibly negligent, wasn’t guilty of reckless disregard for the truth.Sally Heep: So, we could prevail under negligence.Shirley Schmidt: We could. If only we’d thought to plead negligence. She reads from a paper in front of her. Count one, intentional inflection of emotional distress. Count two, reckless disregard for the truth. She looks up. Ah, here’s where there should have been a third count alleging negligence. There is no third count alleging negligence.Sally Heep: In, in the supporting memoranda we have pages on negligence.Shirley Schmidt: But you didn’t plead it.Sally Heep: So we just file a motion to amend.Shirley Schmidt: That deadline lapsed.Sally Heep: Ah, this is… this is obviously an oversight. The defendant had constructive notice, we can appeal this. I’ll get right on it.Shirley Schmidt: I have taken the liberty of reviewing some of your other work, Sally. You’re a very good lawyer. But not, good enough we’re letting you go.Sally Heep: You’re firing me?Shirley Schmidt: I’m sorry.Sally Heep: I have done a lot of good work here.Shirley Schmidt: Yes, you have. And any number of law firms would be happy to have you. This one unfortunately just doesn’t happen to be one of them.Sally Heep:To Denny. Are you in on this?Denny Crane: Am, am, am I in on this?Shirley Schmidt: It was my decision. Paul and Denny still remain strong supporters. We’re streamlining a little and I have to make some tough calls. I’m sorry.Sally Heep: How can you come in here, and in one week, fire someone you don’t even know?Shirley Schmidt: I’m Schmidt.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, Nora Jacobs is walking down the corridor. She passes Alan Shore.Alan Shore: Nora, outstanding. I give it a three.Nora Jacobs: Thank you?Back in the conference room with Paul, Shirley and Denny.Nora Jacobs:She comes in. Mr Crane? A Mr Walter Fife is in your office. He says it’s quite important.Denny Crane: Oh, thank you. May I ask? Do I know you?Nora Jacobs: I’m Alan Shore’s assistant. Mr Fife came to our office when he couldn’t find you. I escorted him back to your office.Denny Crane: Excellent. I’ll be right there.Nora leaves. Denny beams smugly.Shirley Schmidt: You’re waiting for me to tell you where your office is, aren’t you?Denny Crane: No. I wanna to see the look on your face when you realize, they still come through that door looking for one man to solve their problems, they don’t come barging in looking for Paul, or you. Only one man. Shirley Schmidt: Allow me. She gets up and leans toward his ear and whispers. Denny Crane.Denny Crane:He gasps. She can still pump my chubby.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, Shirley is walking in the corridor. As she walks around a corner, Nora is waiting for her.Nora Jacobs: Mrs Schmidt.Shirley Schmidt: My mother is Mrs Schmidt, you can call me Schmidt.Nora Jacobs: I know you’re a very busy person, but if I could steal one minute of your busy time.Shirley Schmidt: Regarding?Nora Jacobs: It’s a little personal.Shirley Schmidt: Ten o’clock.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, in Denny’s office. Walter Fife is with Denny.Walter Fife: They didn’t just sue the School Board, they sued me personally, which I regard as punitive.Denny Crane: Walter, I can assure you their Cause of Action is totally baseless.Walter Fife: I haven’t even told you what it is yet.Denny Crane: I…Shirley Schmidt:She comes in. Hi! Shirley Schmidt.Denny Crane: This is Walter Fife. He’s superintendent of Middle Sect School District. He’s being sued. What’d you do? Little, touchy feely with a student?Walter Fife: What? God no! What, what kind of question is that?Denny Crane: Oh lighten up. Let’s all sit. Shirley here is a senior partner, so you’re in good hands, you got both Shirley and umh…Shirley Schmidt: You!Denny Crane: Me! Right. Good. Okay. Now. Look. I’m gonna ask you something. It’s gonna be a question. And I want a direct answer. No matter how difficult.Walter Fife: Okay.Denny Crane: Why… Walter… are you being sued?Walter looks at Shirley.Shirley Schmidt: You promised you’d answer.Walter Fife: The School Board voted to include Creationism along with Darwinism in the eighth grade Science curriculum. The teachers refused, I terminated their employment. They sued.Denny Crane: Massachusetts is a blue state. God has no place here.Walter Fife: I, I’m not sure you’re really the lawyer for this particular...Shirley Schmidt: We have many attorneys, well equipped to han...Denny Crane: Nonsense. I’ve been practicing law for 45 years. Never lost a single case.Walter Fife: You’ve never lost?Denny Crane: My record is six thousand and forty-three to O. You hear the one about the fellow who died, went to the Pearly Gates, St Peter let him in, sees a guy in suit making a closing arguments. Says, “Who’s that?” St Peter says, “Ohhh, that God. Thinks he’s Denny Crane.” Ha, ha, ha, ha! I’m your boy Walter. Never lost. Never will.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, Lori Colson, Brad Chase and Tara Wilson are in the lounge.Lori Colson: Did she give you a reason?Sally Heep: Just that my work didn’t cut it. I mean my reviews have all been good. Plus, I mean it’s not like they’ve given me very much to do. The Witchell case was really the first one they let me run with.Brad Chase: And... you forgot to plead negligence. Lori gives him a look. Sorry.Lori Colson: Let me talk to her. See if there’s another story.Sally Heep: : I mean, is this woman like some sort of psycho witch or something?Lori Colson: Actually no she’s extremely nice.Brad Chase: We all know she was sent to shake the tree. Looks like it’s already begun.Tara Wilson: I wonder who’s next?Shirley Schmidt: She comes in. Lori? Can I steal you for a second?Lori Colson: Sure. She leaves to follow Shirley.Tara Wilson: Dibs on her office.Lori Colson:She turns back to give Tara a look, then walks down the corridor with Shirley. I just heard about Sally. I think you’re making a mistake.Shirley Schmidt: I didn’t ask.Lori Colson: Which surprises me actually. You and I are friends. I’ve worked with Sally.Shirley Schmidt: And being loyal to her, you’d possibly be neither objective nor candid.Lori Colson. Even so…Shirley Schmidt: In either event I didn’t ask. Lori wants to say more, but doesn’t. We just got a new case. Big client. Middle Sect School District. Denny’s in charge. Which is fine, as long as he doesn’t speak. I need you to take over.Lori Colson: How do I just take over? He’ll completely...Shirley Schmidt: You’ll handle him Lori. The way only you can.Lori Colson: Ah, what’s the case?Shirley Schmidt: It’s a variation of the Scope’s trial. Three teachers were fired for refusing to teach Creationism. They’ve sue.Lori Colson: Sounds like a slam dunk. For them.Shirley Schmidt: Perhaps. It would take some pretty ingenious lawyering on our part from, not only a gifted attorney, but someone who’s an expert in the field.Lori Colson: Meaning?Shirley Schmidt: Lori, I know all the skeletons in your closet. Remember? Including that deeply guarded little one that you fear might ruin your intellectual reputation. You go to church.Nora Jacobs:She comes to the door and knocks. Uhm, Schmidt. Is this a good time?Shirley Schmidt: Yeah. To Lori. Conference room? Noon? Lori nods. Thank you.Lori leaves.Shirley Schmidt: How can I help?Nora Jacobs: Well. This is very awkward. I’m not even sure you’re the right person to come to. But… you’re a woman.Shirley Schmidt: That’s very kind.Nora Jacobs: I work for Alan Shore and in many many ways he’s an excellent boss. God knows he isn’t boring. But I feel that’s he’s been inappropriate with me.Shirley Schmidt: How so?Nora Jacobs: Well. He compliments my figure daily. And he just kind of does it in a lascivious way. He also ranks my sweaters.Shirley Schmidt: He ranks your sweaters?Nora Jacobs: Yes. Which ones he thinks I look best in. This is a three. He asked if he could take one home for the weekend. He told me he has dreams about me.Shirley Schmidt: What kind of dreams?Nora Jacobs: All kinds. Ah, once he dreamt that I was just a head. No body, just a head. Everywhere he went he would carry me along, wrapped in a muffler, to keep him company. And every so often I would whisper terrible, dirty things in his ear. Feels a little like harassment.Shirley Schmidt: You think? Would you like to work for another lawyer?Nora Jacobs: Well, I’d just like him to stop. I must admit, that, sometimes I’ve been guilty of playing along with his banter. But...Shirley Schmidt: I’ll take care of it.Nora Jacobs: Thank you.Shirley Schmidt: And Nora? Thank you for coming forward with this. I know it was difficult.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, in Tara’s office the TV is on, and Tara is watching the news.TV Announcer: We have very little information, other than the victim was in her fifties and that she was bludgeoned to death. It is the second death in a week that has rocked this idealic little street. Just last Friday the victim’s next door neighbor died as well, from a head trauma. You may recall the son was briefly held, and then released.Tara Wilson:She gasps as her chair is suddenly shoved back to the wall. What? Alan Shore comes up from under the desk and stares at the Television.TV Announcer: ... not indicated whether these two cases are connected.Alan Shore: It’s Bernie!Tara Wilson: Who?Alan Shore: That little skillet-wielding client from last week. He’s whacked another one! He promised me he wouldn’t? He leaves.Tara Wilson: Does that mean you’re... finished?In Bernard Ferrion’s home. There is a knocking on the door.Bernard Ferrion:He opens the door. Alan?Alan Shore: What have you done?Bernard Ferrion: There’s an awful lot of excitement.Alan Shore: I saw. Both live, and on the news. You’ve been flanging again with your frying pan, haven’t you, Bernard?Bernard Ferrion: I never meant for it to happen.Alan Shore: I am very disappointed! I gave you a terrific speech last week Bernie. Appealing to the kind, inner you. It was wonderful, poignant even, and now you’ve completely muted it by committing murder again! Bernard Ferrion: I never meant to kill her.Alan Shore: Oh, what? You went over there to make an omelet and things go out of hand?Bernard Ferrion: She knew! She heard an argument between me and mother. She was out there watering her stupid plants. In the winter, for God’s sakes. The woman is not right. Or wasn’t right. Alan sighs. Alan, she said she was gonna call the police. She said what she heard would not be hearsay. She looked it up, she said, because we were arguing, it would, it would qualify as an excited blutterance. Suddenly the skillet was in my hand, and I swung.Alan Shore: Blutterance isn’t even a real word. Much less a defense. You murdered somebody over a fake word!Bernard Ferrion: I was careful to not leave any evidence. I went over there stealth like... He moves the curtain aside to look out the window.Alan Shore:He pulls Bernie away from the window. Oh for God’s sake.Bernard Ferrion: ...I staged a break-in in the back. I dispatched of her, and then I returned. And Alan, I promise you, this will be the very very last one.Alan Shore: I’m not representing you this time.Bernard Ferrion: You must! If it comes to that!Alan Shore: I won’t! You’ve let me down terribly!Bernard Ferrion: Uh, but... But you said that you stood for the little man. Alan slams the door as he leaves the house. I’m little!At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, Walter, Lori, Denny and Shirley are in the conference room.Lori Colson: The best thing I feel would be to go for an immediate declaratory judgment. The last thing we want is a trial. This is a hot button issue. The ACLU will be jumping in and that’s only the beginning.Denny Crane:As Lori continues talking to Walter, Denny turns to Shirley. Why have I been taken off this case?Shirley Schmidt: You haven’t. You’ve been relieved of the grunt work because it’s beneath you.Denny Crane: Relieved is a soft word for discharge. I recognize a demotion when I see one. I am the master of the soft discharge.Shirley Schmidt: You refer again to when we were intimate. Now pay attention and pretend you have a clue. Lori Colson: We all set?Denny Crane: Lock and load.Shirley Schmidt: Let’s go.The get up to leave. Out in the corridor they pass Alan.Alan Shore: Lori.Lori Colson: Alan.Shirley Schmidt: Alan, a second. We have a ... little problem. Seems you’ve been sexually harassing Nora Jacobs.Alan Shore: She signed a waiver.Shirley Schmidt: I’m sorry?Alan Shore: I make all my female employees sign sexual harassment waivers. Especially the pretty ones.Shirley Schmidt: I don’t think that document would hold up in court. Alan Shore: Oh.Shirley Schmidt: But regardless, that kind of behavior isn’t tolerated at Crane, Poole and Schmidt.Alan Shore: Which... kind of... behavior? Specifically?Shirley Schmidt: I think you’re smart enough to sense where the line is, Counsel.Alan Shore: I’m never sure until I cross it.Shirley Schmidt: She is a subordinate. There is a disparity of power. You will refrain from any sexual advances, verbal or otherwise.Alan Shore: Shirley? He sighs. What about senior partners? There would be nothing wrong with me lusting say after you? Would there?Shirley Schmidt: Go subscribe to National Geographic. Make a list of the places you’ll never get to visit. Add to that list, Schmidt.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, Brad and Sally are walking down the corridor.Brad Chase: Sally, I’ll talk to her, but other than that...Sally Heep: You can pull some strings?Brad Chase: What about Alan Shore? He’s the one that pulls rabbits.Sally Heep: He’s not a partner. You are. Besides I slept with Alan Shore. How objective can he be?Brad Chase: You also slept with me. Did you ever think that might be part of the problem?Sally Heep:She is stunned. She raises her right hand to strike him, he grabs her hand in mid air. She raises her left hand, he grabs it. That was unfair. Kicking me while I’m down? I guess I should have expected it.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, in Alan’s office. Bernard is with Alan.Bernard Ferrion: The police want to question me.Alan Shore: That’s really a stunner, Bernie. They arrested you last week, for whacking your mother. You get off on a technicality. Now? The woman next door turns up dead from a blow to the head. What could possibly make them think of you?Bernard Ferrion: Should I talk to them?Alan Shore: I wouldn’t! Where you once were convincing? You now are anything but!Bernard Ferrion: I don’t like it when you speak to me in these hurtful tones. I am not an evil person.Alan Shore: Yes! You are Bernie! You’ve killed two people inside of a week. By definition that makes you evil. This last killing was premeditated, calculated. You went over there as you said, to dispatch a human being. You’re a little bug. And like a little bug, you will one day get stepped on. Now go away. I do not represent evil people. Bernard is stunned and doesn’t move. I asked you to leave.Bernard Ferrion: May I say one more thing? You cut me to the quick. I am a bug. My mother would often tell me, I am nothing more than an insignificant little... she used to call me a dung beetle! When I killed her, as she lay on the floor? For the first time I felt alive! I had actually done something! Perhaps a part of me sought to relive that power. But today I, I, I do, I feel evil. I need your help, Alan. The police want to interrogate me. I don’t know what to do.Tara Wilson:She comes in. Could I...? Oh! I’m so sorry.Alan Shore: That’s okay. Tara Wilson? Meet Bernard Ferrion. He kills people with cookware. Allegedly of course. Bernie?... Tara! She’s your new lawyer.Bernard Ferrion: No, I’d prefer you.Alan Shore: No, you can’t have me. One reason being. I know too much. If you want this firm to help you, Tara is your lawyer!Bernard Ferrion: She’s very fetching. But, is, she good?Alan Shore:He gives Bernard a look, then turns to Tara. The police wanna talk to him. There’s an excellent chance you can avoid the prison term he very much deserves. I must warn you, do not come to care for this man. He will let you down. That’s all.Tara Wilson: Let’s go, Mr Ferrion.Tara and Bernard leave.Alan Shore:He presses a button on the intercom. Nora? When you get a minute.A few minutes later Nora is sitting across from Alan.Alan Shore: Why did you feel compelled to speak to Shirley Schmidt? Why didn’t you just take it up with me? Nora Jacobs: I don’t know. I suppose... I guess I didn’t feel I could hold my own with you. Which I guess, is a part of the problem.Alan Shore: “Alan, I’m uncomfortable with the banter.” You could have said that. You did participate in the banter?Nora Jacobs: I participated. I of course, wanted to be liked by my boss. But then... it started to go too far.Alan Shore: And when it went too far? Why not tell me?Nora Jacobs: I don’t know. Because I’d let it go on. I felt maybe I gotten myself in... At the seminars you get the impression that the senior people here are good at dealing with these things. I wanted you to stop. But I still like you, and like working for you, and I was hoping they maybe they had a way to solve the problem without any hurt feelings. Alan doesn’t speak. So what happens now?In Judge William Howe’s courtroom. Walter is in the witness chair.Walter Fife: We actually call it Intelligent Design. Basically the idea is, life is so complex, a Greater Power has to be at play.Lori Colson: The Greater Power being God?Walter Fife: We’re by no means...Shirley Schmidt:She looks over at Denny. He’s sleeping. Denny?Denny wakes up.Walter Fife: … shutting down Darwinism or suggesting that evolution is inaccurate.Lori Colson: Do you believe in evolution, Mr Fife?Walter Fife: I happen to believe in both God and evolution. I don’t think the two have to be mutually exclusive. Lori Colson: So, why not simply offer the Intelligent Design theory in religion courses? Why Science?Walter Fife: Well, we thought long and hard about that. But the simple truth is, more and more scientists, scientists, not theologians have said that when you examine the intricacies of the human cell, the mathematical equations of DNA, you simply cannot conclude that it’s all explained by natural selection. Another Power has to be at work.Attorney Daniel Gellman: God?Walter Fife: Well again, we never mention Him by name.Attorney Daniel Gellman: You’re aware of the separation of Church and State?Walter Fife: I’m aware.Denny Crane:Under his breath, to Shirley. This is boring crap.Attorney Daniel Gellman: And you’re also aware that the Supreme Court has banned the teaching of Creationism.Walter Fife: Well. As I said, technically we’re not calling it Creationism.Attorney Daniel Gellman: But you admitted that’s what’s going on. And Creationism holds that God created the world about 6,000 years ago in 6 days?Walter Fife: That’s not my view.Attorney Daniel Gellman: But it’s a view you’re insisting your teachers explain in the Science class?Walter Fife: As a theory.Attorney Daniel Gellman: A theory with no Scientific bases other than to say… “Gee, evolution can’t account for it all.”At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, Tara is in her office. Bernard is with her. He is wearing helmet.Tara Wilson: Why the helmet?Bernard Ferrion: Well it wouldn’t be for here. It would be for at home. Well, the thinking being, if there’s someone in the neighborhood breaking into houses, whacking people, from behind, on the head, it would make sense for me to wear a helmet. I want to exude innocence, you see.Tara Wilson: Get rid of the helmet.Bernard Ferrion: But Ms Wilson, at, at my core, I’m a little man. It would make sense for me to want to protect myself. Right?Tara Wilson: Get rid of the helmet. You look ridiculous. Now listen to me. The police have asked for a DNA sample, and I’m gonna agree.Bernard Ferrion: What? Why on earth?Tara Wilson: Because they could get one with a court order. There’s no point in opposing.Bernard Ferrion: But what about my right to not incriminate myself?Tara Wilson: Cooperation goes a long way towards exuding innocence, Mr Ferrion. Much better than hockey head gear.Bernard Ferrion: You know, everyone is speaking to me in hurtful tones and I don’t appreciate it. I did kill people. You’d think I’d incur a little shock and awe, if not respect.Tara Wilson: Is that why you did this? To inspire awe? Alan Shore told me that your mother referred to you as a dung beetle.Bernard Ferrion: Please don’t mention that particular species to me. I don’t know what else Alan told you, but, I’m a kind man. I have admittedly committed two heinous acts, but the first was not voluntary, and the second was out of desperation. Not wanting to go to prison where bigger men will have their way with me. Ms Wilson, I need your help. Please be on my side.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt. Sally is in her office.Brad Chase:He comes in. I’m sorry. That remark was way outta line. Listen, Sally, it didn’t help that you were with me a year and a half ago, and then you were with Alan Shore. As gossip, it travels fast. But I have no doubt. None! That you are going to be an exceptional attorney. But… just not here. They’re never gonna give you the chance. You need to… remake yourself. Start fresh. You asked me for help, and I’m going to provide it to you in the form of advice. You need to go.In Judge William Howe’s courtroom. Roberta Turner is in the witness chair.Roberta Turner: At the beginning of the school year we got the word at our teacher’s assembly, that moral values would be one of our educational objectives. Which was fine. But to have Evolution bumped for Creationism.Attorney Daniel Gellman: Well! To be fair, Evolution isn’t being displaced. Creationism is just being included. Roberta Turner: Evolution is a tough subject matter. We cannot cut into what little class time we have to service a political agenda. To teach…Lori Colson: Objection! This is non-responsive.Judge William Howe: Please limit your answers to the questions, ma’m.Attorney Daniel Gellman: Why can’t you view Intelligent Design as a Science, Ms Turner?Roberta Turner: Because! There is simply no scientific data to support it. How are we to maintain any credibility as Science teachers if we say, “Gee! Despite all this data, there’s also another possibility.” Intelligent Design makes a mockery of Science. If you wanna teach it as religion course? Fine! But as a Science? It’s simply preposterous.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, in Tara’s office. Tara is talking with Dective Willet while a police technician is taking a tongue swab from Bernard.Detective Willet: I just don’t understand why you wouldn’t wanna talk. If there’s a serial killer loose in his neighborhood…?Tara Wilson: He’d love to talk. I’m not letting him.Bernard Ferrion: I’d tell you one thing…Tara Wilson: Bernard! You people wrongly arrested him last time with no evidence, after his mother recklessly accused him. Now it’s clear there is somebody in the neighborhood killing people. You haven’t so much as apologized to Mr Ferrion for ruining his good name. Why should we expect any fair treatment from you?Police Technician: I’m done.Detective Willet: Once again I’ll encourage your client not to leave the jurisdiction.Bernard Ferrion: Bully boy!Tara Wilson: Bernard!The two policemen leave.Bernard Ferrion: You handled that deftly. So what now?Tara Wilson: You can go home. If indeed you left no traces behind, and assuming they find no DNA, and with no smoking skillet,you’ll likely get away with it once again.Bernard Ferrion: You’re using a judgmental tone.Tara Wilson: Do you really expect us not to condemn you? You killed two people!Bernard Ferrion: I expect you to condemn my actions, but, I suppose not me!Tara Wilson: You can go.Bernard Ferrion:He moves to leave then turns back. How’s Alan?Tara Wilson: Honestly? I think he’s hurt. You hear all the time how clients are let down by their lawyers, sometimes it’s the attorney who’s let down by the client. As silly as it may sound the cynical, jaded Alan Shore gets a bit desperate sometimes to believe in the goodness of mankind. He found, I think, some hope in you. And you crushed it. Like a bug.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, in Alan’s office, Alan and Nora are sitting on couches.Nora Jacobs: You’re firing me?Alan Shore: Certainly not. I’d get sued. I’m reassigning you.Nora Jacobs: If I get put back into the pool that’s the same as a demotion.Alan Shore: Nora, I’m not going to change who I am. I can work on it, but leaps and bounds I’ll never make. When I look at women… most women… my mind wanders invariably to sexual fantasy of a board and curious nature, unfettered by moral restraint. I can’t help it. I realize this candor could come back to haunt me should you indeed file a claim, but when I look at you I often conger up the most intimate and explicit of distractions. That’s not going to change. You are a sexually attractive.... Shirley comes in and stands at the door. Beast! Could you excuse us, Shirley? I’m dictating a letter. Shirley leaves. I give you my word; you will not get a demotion. Shirley is right outside the door eavesdropping. I also offer you my gratitude for making me realize that sometimes women play along and yet never-the-less fell harassed. I suppose it’s the callous idiot who can’t appreciate that. I apologize for being that idiot. Nora gets up to leave. Nora? The next time that someone does something to you that you don’t like, be direct. I assure you, you’re up to it.Nora leaves.Shirley Schmidt: She comes back in. That was very eloquent. Thank you.Alan Shore: You need to get me another secretary, Shirley. Someone more willing to be harassed.Shirley Schmidt: I’ll see what I can do.In Judge William Howe’s courtroom Attorney Daniel Gellman is giving his closing.Attorney Daniel Gellman: These are bad times for Science your Honor. Especially at the hands of moral values. The government has systematically distorted or worse, suppressed findings by the FDA and EPA when it comes to contraception, stem cell research. AIDS, global warming, pollution…Judge William Howe: Let’s just stick to the case, Counsel, and leave politics out of it.Attorney Daniel Gellman: This case is all about politics. It’s about getting religion back into schools. Creationism is religious doctrine; it is not supported by scientific data. I’m a Christian. My wife is a Jew. We have wonderful debates. And this country, as a whole should be more theologically literate, but it’s not Science! What’s happening here today is an attack on evolution. It’s clever. Let’s call it Intelligent Design. Let’s not mention God. But, come on! The Supreme Court banned the teaching of Creationism in the public schools. They were right then, they remain right today, and my client’s discharge was unlawful, as well in violation of our time honored tradition of separating Church and State. Of course we have a legitimate Cause of Action.Shirley Schmidt: That was almost Evangelical. The Establishment Clause prohibits the endorsement of, or discrimination against any particular religion. But it was never meant to extinguish the notion of a Higher Power.I certainly believe in evolution. Who here among us, while watching the presidential debates could deny that we all come from monkeys. But, what’s so wrong with suggesting, as a possible theory, that a Higher Power might have also played a part? As for Church and State, we go to war over God-given rights to Democracy. Let’s face it. God is big here. We love God, and we as a nation have an overwhelming belief He had something to do with the creation of human-kind. But, teach that in a Science class? Perish the thought. Nobody here is trying to squash evolution, and I would agree with Mr Gellman, it isn’t good Science to suppress information. But, I would ask the court, who here today is trying to do the squashing?At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, in Tara’s office, Bernard is with Tara.Bernard Ferrion: I thought if I went to trial it would offer me a chance to clear my name.Tara Wilson: Clear your name! You… did it!Bernard Ferrion: But nobody knows that.Tara Wilson: Have you gone mad? They haven’t got any evidence. They can’t even arrest you. And you’re here asking to go to trial! What is the matter with you?Bernard Ferrion: The suspense of them building a case! It’s just too much to bare! He sighs. I’m lonely. All I ever had was my mother and I killed her. The only other person who ever, ever talked to me was my neighbor. Killed her too! How’s Alan? I miss him.Tara Wilson: Bernard? Unless something else happens here, your case is over. Now I can appreciate that you’re lonely, but you need to find a life for yourself now.Bernard Ferrion: But uhm… How do I do that?Tara Wilson: Bernard? Your case status at the moment, is over.Bernard Ferrion: Okay. Okay.At Crane, Poole and Schmidt, in Alan’s office, Alan sits down to read some papers.Catherine Piper:She comes in. Alan! Hello!Alan Shore: Mrs Piper?。

Edwin Poole从来没有告诉我们审理的日期Edwin Poole never evengave us this trial date.他说还没确定He told us it was continued indefinitely.所以我们建议你解雇我们Which is why we're suggestingthat you discharge us.法官必须给你时间找新律师He has got to give you timeto find new counsel.- Sally 这次必须你来- 我?- Y ou have to handle this, Sally.- Me?瞧我对玻璃眼球有心理障碍Look, I have this thingabout glass eyes.我有个老师也这样I once had a teacherwith a glass eye,有时候他一激动起来and sometimes when he'd get mad,就拿出来往桌子上拍he'd take it out andwhack it on his desk.简直是恶梦It gave me nightmares.嗨Hi, there.嘿Hey.她怎么了?What was that?没什么Nothing.看上去有人急切的渴望Someone just seemsa little overeager和Alan Shore旧情复燃to rekindle the flame with Alan Shore. 我们坚持7万美元The offer was firm at $70,000.是的可如果不那么坚持你们多提高1/4 我们就接受了Y es, we thought if you'd un-firm itto one and a quater, we could be done. 而你的委托人明天就不用上庭Y our client wouldn't haveto testify tomorrow,当然他就能更多的误诊其他人了which, of course, would freehim up to misdiagnose others.看来你还没明白Mr. Shore.Y ou don't seem to get it, Mr. Shore.给7万美元我们只是要摆脱无赖纠缠We offered $70,000as nuisance change.是的我们只是觉得Mr. MorganY es. We just feel Mr. Morgan要比你说的更令人无赖is a much bigger nuisancethan you give him credit for.而我更是无比的无赖我们应该可以为此再多拿点And I'm an enormous nuisance.We should get something for that.－我想吐－你会没事的- I feel nauseous.- Y ou'll be fine.敲门Knock on it.－你来－Sally!Y ou knock on it. / Sally!如果是我负责与她对话至少你来敲门If I'm doing the talking,the least you could do is...律师？Y ou, his lawyers?－嗨－嗨Hi. / Hi.我是Sally Heep 这位是I'm Sally Heep.

Hello.嗯我们想问几个问题Binder夫人如果可以的话Uh, we just wanted to ask you a few questions, Mrs. Binder, if we could. 进来Come on in.他是个心地善良的好男孩He's a wonderful boywith a gentle heart.是的我们的问题是Y es, our problem is,你似乎是唯一一个了解他的人you seem to be the only personto truly know him.他觉得因为这个假眼我不会是个好证人He think I'll make a bad witnesson account of the eye.它是玻璃的看到了吗?It's glass, you see.近些看Look close.是的Y es.嗯Y eah.事情是这样的The thing is,检控方宣称the prosecution is obviously claiming Jason的心地并不善良that Jason's heart is not gentle.他和人有过纠纷吗?Has he ever been in trouble?他曾经被拘捕过吗?Has he ever been arrested?他替其他人惹过麻烦吗?Has he ever caused anyproblems for anybody?没有他是个好人我也是这么教他的No, he is a nice young man,and it's the way I raised him.这就是我们希望你说的That's exactly whatwe'll need you to say.也许我可以带你去买点衣服做个头发I'm also maybe gonna take you shopping, get your hair done.－形象越好…－Jared Grant 他该死- The more presentable...- He deserved to die, Jared Grant.为什么这么说?Why do you say that?他打了我的Jason.He beat up my Jason.不过他没有打得很厉害Well, he didn't exactly beat him up.－只是发生了口角－他痛打了他- There was an altercation.- He beat him up.那个男的是恶魔他该死The man is evil, andhe deserved to die!- 冷静下来- 我告诉你了他该死!- Let's calm down.- He deserved it, I tell you!Rayburn医生Dr. Rayburn,Mr. Morgan 由你来负责超过6个月了over the six months thatMr. Morgan was in your care,他来过你这多少次?how many visits did he maketo your practice?38次38.算多吗?Is that a lot?比其他病人多出四倍Four times as manyas any other patient.我们玩笑说他是办公室的吉祥物We joked he was the office mascot. 你说的出病状他就坚信自己得了那些病Y ou name the condition Mr. Morgan was convinced he had it.伤风感冒支气管炎Cold, flu, bronchitis,带状疱疹成人发作性糖尿病shingles, adult onset diabetes.我从来没说过糖尿病I never complained ofadult onset diabetes.那个的症状应该是口渴That's characterizedby excessive thirst.你觉得我今天喝了很多水?Does it seem to you likeI've been drinking a lot today?我确定你很好BillI'm sure you're fine, Bill.Mr. Morgan 认为你的疏忽导致了他今天的状况Mr. Morgan contends your neglect drove him to this state.实际上我已经尽量的容忍他了The truth is, I bent over backwards to accommodate him.他总要求立刻见我He always needed tobe seen immediately,无论我有多忙and busy as my practice is,我总是挤出时间I always made the time.我为你感到骄傲先生为你不知疲倦的对待我的委托人I applaud you, sir, for yourtireless commitment to my client.多好的人!What a guy!－反对－反对有效Objection. / Sustained.所以这38次都算在诊所头上？G So these 38 visits, on the house?什么?I'm sorry?它们都是免费的？They were free visits?不是No.哦~!Oh!所以你是收了钱的这就合理了So you charged him.That makes sense.所以当他抱怨浑身无力So with all his complaining,his incapacitation,痛苦的脸皱成一团that pinched look on his face,其实一点毛病没有there's nothing wrong with him.临床上没有而问题出在他脑袋里了Nothing clinically, no.It's in his head.只是普通的偏头痛对吗? Traditional home forthe migraine, is it not?是心身失调It's psychosomatic.他是个典型的抑郁症患者He's a classic hypochondriac.我明白了I see.所以还是有个诊断的Well, there's a diagnosis.那么告诉我你开出了什么处方Tell me, what treatment did you prescribe 医治我委托人的典型的抑郁症for my client's classic hypochondria?我是全科医生不是精神病学医师I'm a general practitioner,not a psychiatrist.所以你建议他出去找...So you referred him out to...谁?whom?没有特定的谁No one in particular.我告诉了他他需要帮助I did tell him he needed help.我甚至给了他一个从业者的名单I believe I even gave hima list of practitioners.所以当他仍然来看病So he kept coming to you,你只是继续收钱却不治疗you kept taking his money,you did not treat him,而且还建议他去看...and you referred him to...一个不确定的医生no one in particular.我是全科医生I'm a G.P.我告诉他要进行精神治疗I told him to seek mental treatment.我只是建议我不能强迫他I advised it. I can't force it.所以我们再总结一次他不停的来你不停的收钱Once again, he kept coming,you kept taking the money,然后建议他去看一个...and you referred him to...不确定的医生no one in particular.那么你要解雇你的律师?So you now want to fire your lawyers?是的法官阁下Y es, your honor.我们不知道审理什么时候开始We had no idea trial was about to start.足以说明他们有多不合格That's how incompetentthese people are.我估计你也没意识到And I suppose you had no idea你的公司正欺诈着老年人your company was bilking senior citizens? 当然阁下你也一定是开明的因为.. Certainly your honor intends to keepan open mind with regard to the...就这么决定了Here's the deal.我可以给你一天找律师24个小时I give you one day to findnew counsel, 24 hours.这以后我会对你们的拖延罚以每天25万美元After that, I'm fining you $250,000a day for any further delay.这看上去像公报私仇It almost seemed personal.你们做过什么招惹这家伙没?Have you done anythingto upset this guy?我不记得有过Not that I can think of.看撇开准备这事不谈Well, look, aside frompreparation concerns,我们有更大的问题了we got a bigger problem.这个法官他有偏见This judge, he's biased.所以我想建议This is what I propose we do.－我们起草一份和谈申请要求...－那是25万美元一天File an interlocutory appeal and ask... / At $250,000 a day.要求和谈我们就有路可走了While we're filing that appeal,we'll go forward.如果赢了我们就能搁置审判Should we win,we can suspend the trial.输了也不会被罚款Should we lose,we won't incur the fine.你的人能搞定这个吗?But are you people readyto try this case?我来I can try it.Denny CraneDenny Crane.有几个谈判都被搁置了There were some settlement discussions that broke down.如果Denny开局不错他们应该会回到谈判桌前If Denny can open big, thatmight bring them back to the table,这也是目前唯一的办法which may be the best wayto go at this point.是四年前在Brighton的一个公园It was four years agoat a park in Brighton.你遇到了被告Y ou met the defendant.这个不能算是遇到Well, I didn't exactly meet him.那是什么?Well, what then?我海扁了他一顿I beat the crap out of him.抱歉Excuse me.我已经改过自新了I was a different person then.好的Mr. Stone 请详细告诉我们那时发生了什么Okay, Mr. Stone, we need to be very specific about what happened back then. 当时他想跟我们一起打篮球Well, he tried to getinto a game of pickup hoops.我和一个兄弟就骂了他几句Me and another guy in the game we started dissing him a little.他回了嘴He said something back,我们就狠揍了他一顿and we beat him up pretty good.当然我并不引以为傲I'm not proud of it.你确定那是Jason Binder?And you're sure it was Jason Binder. 是的Y eah,看到报纸上的照片我记得他的脸when I saw his picture on the news, I remembered his face.绝对是他It was definitely him.那另一个打他的人呢?And what about the other guywho beat him up?Jared Grant 就是他杀的那个Jared Grant, the guy he killed.你骗了我Y ou lied to me.在打架前你就...Not only were you in a fight before... 这不代表什么it doesn't prove anything.他们有你杀人的动机了Jason Now they have a motive, Jason.被害人四年前打了你然后你就开始练习跆拳道The victim beats you up four years ago, you take up Taekwondo,这么巧你又遇到了他you just so happen to encounter him, 于是就杀了他at which point you kill him?不是你说的那样It wasn't like that.这就是为什么你妈妈会说他该死因为That's why your mom saidhe deserved to die, because...不是那样的It wasn't like that.我还能去辩护什么?What am I supposed to argue now? 坦白讲Jason 是为了报仇你才去酒吧的吗?Let's have it, Jason.Did you go to that bar to get revenge? 我是去让自己面对他I went there to stand up to him.你无法想象我受着怎样的煎熬被他们...Y ou have no ideahow haunted I was by...四年前我连手都没敢举起来过I didn't even put upmy hands four years ago.不是挨打在折磨我It wasn't getting beat upthat stuck with me.是我根本没...It was that I didn't even...我只是任由自己挨打I just let myself get beat up.所以你开始练习武术So you took up martial arts.然后我去了那里找他And I went there to stand up to him. 我没有想要打架I didn't plan to fight.更没想过杀他I certainly didn't go there to kill him. 当他一拳挥来我只是...Then when he swung at me,I just...反击了I swung back.我没有想杀他I never meant to kill him.我们多收了谁的钱?Who are we overbilling?医疗保险还是那些老人们? medicare or senior citizens?都有但医疗保险没有起诉我们Both, but medicare isn't suing us."我们"是指制药公司?"Us."

Tara. SighBrad Chase: Hey, I’m Brad Chase from D.C.Alan Shore:Alan Shore.Brad Chase: Pleasure. I, ah, think that’s my seat.Alan Shore:Yes. I did see someone’s things here. I moved them to a less desirable location. Opens his newspaper to read. I’m sorry; we’re not territorial about that sort of thing around here, are we?Brad Chase walks over to the other chair to sit down.Denny Crane: Denny Crane. Shakes hands withPeter Stone: Yes, Denny, I know.Denny Crane: Ahh . . .Peter Stone: I run the New York office.Denny Crane: Oh . . .Peter Stone: Peter Stone?Denny Crane: Denny Crane.Chicago partner: I know. I’m . . . um . . . with Chicago.Denny Crane: My kind of town. Always had the best sex of my life in Chicago. What about you?Well, um . . .Denny Crane: Greetings, Tokyo, London.Nigel: Good morning.Tokyo partner: Morning, Denny.Denny Crane:Shaking hands. Brad Chase. There you are, soldier.Brad Chase: Hey.Denny Crane: Oh, everybody remembers Brad Chase, I’m sure. Hell, if I do—Good to see you, man. All right, everybody—lock and load. Item 1: Forget Item 1.Nigel: Well, actually, Denny, item 1 is a rather urgent matter that we must discuss.Denny Crane: Why don’t you brief us?Nigel: Gladly. If we . . . Denny Crane hits the mute button on his remote.Denny Crane: Item 2: Beckerman discovery? What the hell is that?Jerry Austin: Uh, well, opposing counsel was granted their motion to compel, which means we are now required to turn over all correspondence and scientific studies.Denny Crane: Hmm, what about the ones we burned before the judge’s orders?Sam Halpern: We didn’t burn any documents.Denny Crane: Well, sure we did. Do it today. All right, Nigel, keep going, we’re listening. Clicks remoteNigel: Uh, if we don’t . . .Denny Crane:hitting the mute button again Item 3.Sam Halpern: Damn it, Denny. This is not a way to conduct a staff meeting. Where the hell is Edwin?Edwin Poole: Sorry I’m late, good people. He walks around the table to reveal—to everyone—he is wearing no pants.Alan Shore:Is it Casual Monday?Denny Crane: Edwin, everything all right?Edwin Poole: Hunky dory.Quick cut toThe Hallway of Crane Poole & SchmidtEdwin Poole is strapped onto a gurney in preparation for a ride in an ambulance.Ambulance attendant: It’s all going to be fine, Mr. Poole.Sam Halpern: Unbelievable.Jerry Austin: Not really. Always figured him for a loon.Edwin Poole: Tara. Where’s Tara. I need Tara!Tara Wilson: I’m right here, Edwin.Edwin Poole: Oh, thank you. You have to contact Bill.Tara Wilson: I . . . I will, Edwin. I promise.Edwin Poole: Apologize for my delay. Then call my wife—tell her I’ve had a small breakdown. Not to worry.Tara Wilson: Of course.Edwin Poole: Oh, oh, my goodness. The Brant appeal. I have the Brant appeal!Denny Crane: Relax, Edwin, relax.Edwin Poole: Denny, guess what? I’m due in court with Tara.Denny Crane: We’re on it. Don’t you worry. You just get better.Edwin Poole: Okay.Denny Crane:to Tara Demagnetize his parking pass.Tara Wilson: I beg your pardon?Denny Crane: I know when a man has gone. Do you think you can handle this case?

See if you can get a damn continuance.Further up the HallwayAmbulance attendant: Coming through, please.Paul Lewiston: Brad, you got a few minutes?Brad Chase: Actually, no, I’ve got an early shuttle.Paul Lewiston: Get a later one. I need some face time.Brad Chase: What’s up?Paul Lewiston: Edwin Poole was the only one here able to rein in Denny Crane. Without him . . .Brad Chase: If you are about to go where I think you’re going . . .Paul Lewiston: We need you back in Boston more than in D.C., Brad. Stops Lori Colson, who is walking by Lori, Ernie Dell just came in. He’s upset about something. I sent him to your office.Lori Colson: My office?Paul Lewiston: Yeah. The alternative would be Denny’s office, and nobody here wants that.Beah Toomy: Excuse me. I need a lawyer. This is my daughter. She tried out for the national tour of Annie, and she was the best one. And she was passed over because she was black. It’s discrimination. It’s bigotry. It’s prejudice, and we want justice.[cut to credits]Alan Shore’s OfficeSally Heep: Please tell me that you’ve never seen anything like that before.Alan Shore:Baring your ass to 24 attorneys, including 2 overseas—that is an unprecedented triumph. I’m just distraught I didn’t think of it myself.Sally Heep: You know what I like about you?Alan Shore:No, I do not.Brad Chase: Excuse me. Sorry to interrupt. Brad Chase. Look, I’ve been asked to stay, which I’m considering. But I’m concerned that you and I may have gotten off on the wrong foot. I like to be straight up with people, and If there’s and issue or conflict, let’s address it head on, if you don’t mind.Alan Shore:I have trouble talking that fast. I don’t believe in being straight up, but I’m a big fan of your Aqua Velva commercials.Brad Chase: There’s a potential client in the conference room. I’d like you to meet with her. Oh, forgot to mention—I outrank you.Alan Shore:Do you? And I’m such a slut for authority.Sally Heep: All right. You think the two little boys could get off the playground now?Conference Room of Crane Poole & SchmidtBeah Toomy: “Kiss Today.”Sarah Toomy: I don’t wanna sing.Beah Toomy: You need to practice. You want to make Julliard? “Kiss Today.”Sarah Toomy:blows her breath out “Kiss today goodbye . . .”Alan Shore:Oh, my.Beah Toomy: Never mind, “Oh, my.” She sings like a sparrow. Here, look. I’ve got these producer notes, which I was able to get a hold of because of my own personal ingenuity. Says she has the most talent. You can read it for yourself.Alan Shore:I’m afraid there’s been a terrible mistake. I don’t do musical comedy.Beah Toomy:Annie’s a drama. It’s full of suspense on whether a little girl gets to live with the rich guy. It’s dramatic.Alan Shore’s facial expression says it all, and ends in a big smile.Reception Area of Crane Poole & SchmidtReceptionist hands a messenger an envelope as a very upset Dr. Sharon Brant enters.Receptionist: May I help you?Dr.Sharon Brant: Yes, I need to speak to Edwin Poole immediately.Receptionist: I’m afraid Mr. Poole is has stepped out . . .Dr.Sharon Brant: You don’t understand. This is an urgent matter. Where the hell is Edwin Poole?Sally Heep: Hi, is there anything I can do to help?Dr.Sharon Brant: Yes. My ex-husband is trying to take my children from me.Sally Heep: Okay.Dr.Sharon Brant: And Edwin Poole—he missed my hearing today. And I’ve been calling his cell phone, and—I mean, what the hell is going on around here?!Brad Chase: Excuse me. I’m Brad Chase. We’re going to take care of this for you. Now why don’t you just take a seat in the conference room. I’ll get you a glass of water.Dr.Sharon Brant: All right. Thank you.Sally Heep: Hey.Brad Chase: Yeah.Sally Heep: I was handling it.Brad Chase: I just thought I’d help out.Sally Heep: That’s very nice. But, again, I was handling it.Brad Chase: So, why does it bother you that I’m trying to help?Sally Heep: Well, maybe because you feel I can’t deal with a client on my own.Brad Chase: I don’t feel that way at all.Sally Heep: Well, then I guess I really have no idea what you feel.Brad Chase: I guess not.Sally Heep: And that’s supposed to be my fault?Alan Shore:Wait a minute. You two have had sex!Brad Chase: I’m sorry. We’re not territorial about that sort of thing around here, are we?Lori Colson’s OfficeLori Colson: If you’re not going to tell me—Ernie Dell: I would prefer to tell Denny. Where the hell is he?Lori Colson: Ernie, you and I have done business for a long time. And we’ve always been able to talk to each other. If I’m to help you here—Ernie Dell: My wife is cheating on me. Uh, and . . . she informed me that she has been cheating on me for our entire marriage. It’s been a fraud from Day 1.Lori Colson: Okay. First, you’ve only been married since August. Second, you’ve had five other marriages dissolve each—Ernie Dell: But this—this was the real thing.Lori Colson: What’s the goal? To get her back?Ernie Dell: Uh, I’d like to put a private investigator on her. Get some proof.Lori Colson: If she’s admitted . . .Ernie Dell: The goal being to get some compromising pictures to use as leverage.Lori Colson: In hopes of . . .Ernie Dell:sighs Negotiating an annulment.Alan Shore’s OfficeBeah Toomy: I know it sounds crazy. And I know I’m one of those obnoxious stage mothers. I get that. But Sarah worked hard. I’ve tried to teach her what you earn, people can’t take that away from you. She’s earned this, Mr. Shore.Alan Shore:I have no doubt. But you realize, producers do have discretion. And the art of casting strikes me as a very inexact science.Beah Toomy: If they knew they were gonna go white, why did they let her try out at all? Why’d they let her get her hopes up? I’ll tell you why. So they can pass themselves off as equal opportunity employers. So they can claim to be about diversity. They want it both ways, Mr. Shore. And my daughter got hurt.Sarah Toomy and Alan Shore exchange smiles.Conference Room of Crane Poole & SchmidtDr.Sharon Brant: That was our deal. I would work two jobs, put him through business school, then he would put me through medical school. A week after he graduated, he got a job running a mutual fund, and a week after that, he left me. Our kids were four then. Twins. Simon and Harry. Pulling a picture out of her purse They’re eight now. Handing picture to Sally HeepSally Heep:taking the picture Oh, they’re beautiful.Dr.Sharon Brant: Thanks. In their peewee league uniforms. You know, he’s never seen one of their games. Sally Heep: He pay your way through med school?Dr.Sharon Brant: Take a wild guess. I don’t care, though. I’ve graduated now. Got a residency waiting for me in New York City. But Matthew won’t let me take the boys out of state. Says he wants them close by—these boys he sees once a month. It’s nothing but spite.Brad Chase: Now, look, we’re going to reschedule a hearing. I’m sure everything is going to work out fine. You just have to be patient.Dr.Sharon Brant: If I’m not at Columbia Presbyterian 8:00 am Monday morning, they will give my spot away. That can’t happen. I have worked to hard to build a life for these boys.Denny Crane’s OfficeDenny Crane: We can’t tail the wife.Lori Colson: That’s what he wants, Denny.Denny Crane: Can’t do it. Not ethical. She’s a client, too.Lori Colson: What I would suggest is we send a letter of withdrawal to end-run the conflict. Get an opinion letter of outside counsel . . .Denny Crane: I don’t want to tail the wife.Lori Colson: Denny, I don’t need to tell you that Ernie Dell is one of our biggest clients. If he wants a private investigator, what’s the real harm?Denny Crane: The harm would be to me.Lori Colson: I’m sorry?Denny Crane: I’m the one sleeping with his wife.The File Room at Crane Poole & SchmidtPaul Lewiston: Denny is having an affair with the woman?Lori Colson: I’ve got a senior partner saying, “Don’t tail her.” I’ve got a client wanting snapshots. What do I do, Paul?Paul Lewiston: Convince Ernie that the private investigator idea is a bad one.Lori Colson: Oh, sure.Paul Lewiston: You have enormous persuasive skills, Lori.Lori Colson: You’re handling me.Paul Lewiston: I am. And I need you to handle Ernie. I will handle Denny.The Hallway of Crane Poole & SchmidtTara Wilson is walking; Lori Colson catches up to her.Lori Colson: Tara?Tara Wilson: Hi.Lori Colson: Don’t be offended by this. I know you’re a great lawyer with exceptional legal skills.Tara Wilson: And?Lori Colson: I need you to flirt with Ernie Dell.Tara Wilson: Excuse me?Lori Colson: The man is a profound skirt chaser.Tara Wilson: What’s wrong with your skirt?Lori Colson:sigh Okay, look. Men sometimes find me attractive. From time to time, they’ll even hit on me. It’s all deeply rewarding. But you—Tara Wilson: What me?Lori Colson: You’re hot. Yeah. Kind of . . . nasty hot. Men would leave their wives for you, and I need to make Ernie forget about his wife so . . .Tara Wilson: If you think that I . . .Lori Colson: Don’t make me pull rank. You can file your sexual harassment claim tomorrow, but today—now—you need to meet with Ernie.Conference Room of Crane Poole & SchmidtAlan Shore:It seems the client can’t pay, so the firm will have to eat the cost of prosecuting this matter. I’m sure the partners won’t object, when they hear that it was a case you assigned to me.Brad Chase: I’ll tell you what. I’ll pay the cost of prosecuting the case.Alan Shore:Mmm.Brad Chase: Of course, if you were a betting man . . . You win, I pay. You lose, you pay. Bit of a gamble, I realize . . .Alan Shore:I’ll pay double.Conference Room of Crane Poole & SchmidtDr.Sharon Brant: You got another hearing?Brad Chase: That’s the good news. The not-so-good news is we probably won’t win it.Sally Heep: But, it at least gives us leverage to get your ex-husband in a room.Dr.Sharon Brant: Woo-woo. What are you talking about?Brad Chase: We want to take a shot at a settlement. Now, if your ex cares anything about these kids, then . . . Dr.Sharon Brant: He doesn’t. This is all about getting me. Have I not been clear about that? He doesn’t even know the kids.Brad Chase: I’ve dealt with bad ex-husbands before.Dr.Sharon Brant: Mr. Chase, no offense, but you have never dealt with this one. Trust me.Courtroom #1Atty. Smith: This is Little Orphan Annie, for God’s sake! If she doesn’t look the part . . .Alan Shore:I didn’t realize we did racial profiling for our comic strips.Atty. Smith: These are private investors. There is no state action involved.Alan Shore:How would the story change if Annie were black?Atty. Smith: Your Honor, are you serious?Judge Rita Sharpley: Counsel, we are talking about adoption here. Daddy Warbucks isn’t the biological father. Exactly how would the story change?Atty. Smith: Little Orphan Annie is an iconic character based . . .Judge Rita Sharpley: I want to see her.Atty. Smith: Excuse me?Judge Rita Sharpley: The girl who got the role. I want to compare.Atty. Smith: Your Honor, is that really fair to the other little girl?Judge Rita Sharpley: Well, counsel, if she can sing eight times a week in front of 3000-plus people a night, she can sing in front of me. Get her in here.Lori Colson’s OfficeErnie Dell: I want the private investigator.Lori Colson:sighs The thing is, Ernie, the photographs will have no legal relevance. They can’t facilitate an annulment.Ernie Dell: I am the customer here, Lori.Lori Colson: Customer isn’t always right.Lori Colson and Tara Wilson exchange conspiratorial looks.Tara Wilson: May I . . . make an observation? I really don’t know you, Mr. Dell, but I suspect there’s a reason why all these younger women want to marry you.Ernie Dell: It’s called money.Tara Wilson: You’re wrong. It’s called power. And you derive a lot of that power not just from being handsome and sexy, but from being dignified. Hiring a private investigator is beneath you. There are many young, beautiful women out there, who would love to jump into your . . . wife’s place. I know this sounds crazy, but . . . you might want to look at this as an opportunity.The Hallway of Crane Poole & SchmidtThe camera follows an angry Paul Lewiston to an office door, which he opens, enteringDenny Crane’s OfficeDenny Crane: Paul.Paul Lewiston: You and I go back a long way, Denny. Completely mindful of the fact that you helped build this place, the partners here will not allow you to dismantle it with your buffoonery.Denny Crane: What did you say to me?Paul Lewiston: I don’t think you want to hear me say it again. To have an affair with the wife of one of our biggest clients—it disrespects both Ernie Dell and this firm.Denny Crane: We have other clients.Paul Lewiston: Not like Ernie. But your point is well taken. Everybody is fungible.Ernie Dell walks in as Paul Lewiston opens the door to leave.Ernie Dell: Lori Colson won’t tail my wife. I want you to do it.Paul Lewiston: Ernie.Ernie Dell: I’m not talking to you. Get it done, Denny.Ernie Dell and then Paul Lewiston leave the room.The Buddha BarAlan Shore:Denny, I’m having a bit of an identity crisis. I’ve always prided myself on being . . . well, nuts. But in this firm, I find myself falling into the sane category.Denny Crane:laughing You think I’m nuts, do you?Alan Shore:Are you scared?Denny Crane: Scared? What would I be scared of?Alan Shore:Edwin Poole is a friend. To see him just go off the high dive?Denny Crane: Edwin Poole’s problem is he doesn’t like being Edwin Poole. From time to time he’d look in the mirror and ask, “What’s the point?” I never do that. Questions like that’ll kill you.Alan Shore:Questions like, “What’s the point?”Denny Crane: Look--take you for example. Tomorrow, you’re gonna go into court and argue that some little fat black kid should be able to play a little skinny white one. What’s the point? Pause You don’t ask—that’s the point. You gonna win, by the way? The world wants to know.Alan Shore:I’m afraid not. There’s no state action. We’ve asked for a specific performance with no clear evidence of discrimination. I don’t like losing, especially when there’s a wager involved.Denny Crane: Well, don’t, soldier. Pull a rabbit out of your hat. Motions with his index finder for Alan Shore to lean closer. Then, conspiratorially That’s the secret of both trial law and life.Alan Shore:Rabbits?Denny Crane:nods Oh, yeah.Hallway at Crane Poole & SchmidtMatthew Calder gets out of the elevator, and walks to the reception area. Alan Shore and Tara Wilson are talking. Tara Wilson turns around.Matthew Calder: Excuse me, I’m looking for . . . you, actually. All my life. Matthew.Tara Wilson: Tara.Alan Shore:Alan.Mattthew Calder: I had a girl who looked like you looking at Tara Wilson once. Married her. Now she looks like you looks at Alan Shore. Where the hell is my lawyer?Conference Room of Crane Poole & SchmidtDr. Sharon Brant, Matthew Calder, Brad Chase, Sally Heep and Atty. Tompkins are in conference.Sally Heep: If you took summer, plus winter breaks, spring break, holiday weekends—you start to get pretty close to what you have now.Matthew Calder: Pass.Dr.Sharon Brant: That’s too much custody for Super Dad.Brad Chase: Is there any acceptable scenario that would allow for Sharon to enroll in her program without leaving the boys behind?Matthew Calder: We could each take one.Dr.Sharon Brant: Excuse me?Matthew Calder: You know, like that Nazi movie where the woman has to pick which kid to keep.Atty. Tompkins: Sophie’s Choice.Matthew Calder: Thank you.Atty. Tompkins: Uh, huh.Matthew Calder: Only this is Sharon’s choice. One goes with her to New York; I keep the other one. Done.Dr.Sharon Brant: That’s outrageous. The boys love each other. Th—they’re best friends.Matthew Calder: A little weird, don’t you think? Let’s see what happens when we split ‘em up.Dr.Sharon Brant: Stop doing this! You have already scarred your children enough to last a lifetime. Imagine how that feels to a little boy—knowing that their father could care less whether he sees them or not! And yet, if it means denying me something that I want, something that I deserve, something that this family needs . . . suddenly you’re . . . you’re a concerned father! Damn you!Matthew Calder: And what about my needs, huh? What freakish nightmare did I step into that turned my wife who was hot, who had sex with me, who liked to go out with me at night, into some earth-mother world-record setting breast feeder? And no, you want to leave your kids with some non-English-speaking nanny for a hundred hours a week so you can live out your ER fantasy life? Be my guest. But it’s not my problem that you’re not good enough to get hired anywhere in the entire state.Hallway of Crane Poole & SchmidtDenny Crane is walking with Lawyer #1, when Ernie Dell approaches.Ernie Dell: Denny, did you hire that P.I. yet? pause I asked you a question. Truth be told, my relationship with this firm hangs in the balance.Jerry Austin: Uh, Ernie, why don’t we step into my office . . .Ernie Dell: I’m talking to Denny.Denny Crane: All right, Ernie. Truth time. My office.Denny Crane’s OfficeDenny Crane: This is not gonna be easy for you to hear, but it needs to be said. I don’t give a damn who slept with your wife. Neither do you, really. You don’t love her. This is an ego thing. She’s a trophy girl. Something for your friends to admire. Maybe you should be flattered.Ernie Dell: I’m not . . .Denny Crane: I’m talking. Ego, Ernie. You acquire fast cars and young wives to try and stay young yourself in the hope of confusing youth with relevance. Well, here’s a flash for you. We’re all desperate to be relevant. You’re 76 years old! Want to feel you still mean something? Move to Florida, punch a chad, screw up an election. Don’t go looking for affirmation between the two artificial jugs of a woman who married you for—Gee, could it be your outstanding sense of humor?Ernie Dell raises his hand as if to punch Denny Crane.Denny Crane: Take a swing if you want to, if it makes you feel better.Instead, Ernie Dell turns to the door and walks out.Courtroom #2Brad Chase: The guardian ad litem acknowledged in her report in the last year, Mr. Calder took custody of the boys only one weekend a month.Atty. Tompkins: Mr. Calder’s been steeped in a major work crisis at his company.Brad Chase: I don’t care if he’s been dismantling a nuclear weapon. The fact is, he hasn’t been there. There’s no doubt that my client is, in practice, the primary custodian. Now this woman is struggling to make a life for her family . . .Judge Isabel Hernandez: What? She can’t make it in the Commonwealth?Brad Chase: She’d love to, but the offer comes from New York. And my client has made every sacrifice . . . Judge Isabel Hernandez: That’s what parents do, Mr. Chase. You have kids, you make sacrifices. They got married here, they had children here. Mr. Calder: As fathers go, I consider you a disgrace. Ms. Brant: There is a reason for this policy. We don’t like angry spouses yanking kids across state lines. It’s an undue burden on the family unit. Accordingly, your plan to relocate with your sons remains enjoined. Bangs gavel.Dr.Sharon Brant: What now?Brad Chase: I don’t know.Matthew Calder: sarcastically wiping a fake tear from his eye I, uh, I guess that didn’t go too well.Courtroom #1Sarah Toomy: “. . . when I’m stuck with a day that’s gray and lonely; I just stick out my chin and grin and say—tomorrow, tomorrow, I love ya tomorrow, you’re always a day away.”Judge Rita Sharpley: Thank you. That was . . .Sarah Toomy:continuing, with Alan Shore mouthing the words along with her “Tomorrow, tomorrow, I’ll love ya tomorrow. You’re always a day away.”Alan Shore claps, grinning as if HE is the stage motherAlan Shore:That was great!Judge Rita Sharpley: Sarah, that was magnificent. But the other little girl was quite good, too. And given the discretion that has to be allowed to producers in these situations . . .Alan Shore:Your Honor, we have something called the Equal Protection Clause, we have something called the 14th Amendment—I believe it’s actually required reading for judges. I could be wrong there.Reverend Al Sharpton (from behind Alan): Could I be heard, your Honor? I heard about this matter. I would like to address this court on what I consider . . .Judge Rita Sharpley: I’m sorry, Reverend, but you have no standing here.Reverend Al Sharpton: I have standing as an American citizen speaking up on a civil rights violation.Judge Rita Sharpley: Reverend Sharpton, I will ask you to step down . . .Reverend Al Sharpton: I have standing as Bobby Kennedy had standing, . . .Judge Rita Sharpley: You have no standing in this meeting.Reverend Al Sharpton: . . . on the steps of the courthouse in Alabama!Judge Rita Sharpley: No one is denying this little girl an education, sir. She just can’t play Annie.Reverend Al Sharpton: You may think this is a small matter. But this is no small matter. This child is being denied the right to play an American icon because she doesn’t match the description. Those descriptions were crafted 50 years ago! We’re supposed to be in a different day!Judge Rita Sharpley: Reverend . . .Reverend Al Sharpton: You talk about racial equality, how we’re making progress. The problem with that progress is it’s always a day away. Tomorrow, tomorrow—you love that!—because it’s always a day away. I’m here to stick out my chin today! Today! Give us an African-American Spider Man! Give us a black that can run faster than a speeding bullet and leap over tall buildings in a single bound! Not tomorrow—today! Today! The sun needs to come out today! Not tomorrow, your Honor! God Almighty! Give the American people a black Orphan Annie. It’s just not good enough to say she doesn’t look the part.Applause from the spectators’ galleryReverend Al Sharpton:to Alan Shore That’s what you call a rabbit, son.

We’re off. He follows Sally Heep out.Denny Crane’s BalconyDenny Crane: I told him we’re all desperate to be relevant.Lori Colson: Were you able to dissuade him?Denny Crane: I think so.Lori Colson: Denny, do you think you were talking about yourself a little? You feeling a little desperate to be relevant lately?Denny Crane: Don’t waste your time trying to get in my head. There’s nothing there.Lori Colson: They’re not going to take the firm from you. First, Paul Lewiston could never get the votes. Second, he wouldn’t want to. The man loves you.Denny Crane: I’m not worried, Lori. Do I look worried? Yeah. Look out there. My domain. My city. I’m Denny Crane.Matthew Calder’s OfficeAlan Shore has gotten past Matthew Calder’s secretary, and is looking for Matthew Calder, who is in a meeting.Secretary: Sir, if I could just get your name. I would be happy to buzz Mr. Calder.Alan Shore:You’re very kind, but look, I’m already here.Secretary: There’s a meeting in progress, though, and I’ve been instructed not to disturb him.Alan Shore: opening the door to a meeting room and walking in, interrupting Matthew Calder and associates.

Surely you’re not suggesting I still dress as a pilgrim.Paul Lewiston: And who is this? gesturing at a little woman dressed as an elfAlan Shore: She’s my elf. Sometimes, especially after Santa’s been drinking, he needs a little helper.Paul Lewiston: Have you been drinking today?Alan Shore: No. Today I just brought her for amusement. My doctors are concerned these staff meetings could cause me to lapse into a coma.Paul Lewiston: I see. Well, since privileged information is exchanged during these staff meetings, your helper will have to leave.Alan Shore:rolls his eyes, then addresses his elf quietly Would you wait in my office, dear?Elf: Sure.Alan Shore holds her chair for her as she gets off the chair and leavesBrad Chase: Actually, there’s that, uh, walk-in. He’s waiting in reception. Maybe Alan should take that.Paul Lewiston: Perhaps you’re right.Brad Chase: A wrongful termination. A guy was fired as a department store Santa.Alan Shore laughsBrad Chase: I mean, since you seem to have such a connection with the subject matter . . .Denny Crane: I’ll do it.Paul Lewiston stares at Denny CraneDenny Crane: I’ve always wanted a Santa case.Brad Chase: Oh, this is much more right for Alan.Denny Crane: I said, I’ll do it. Where is he?Brad Chase: Uh, in reception.Denny Crane arises, and walks into the:Reception Area of Crane Poole & SchmidtDenny Crane: Gil Furnald?A man and woman continue their conversation without looking up.Gil Furnald: a man wearing a dress, reading a newspaper That’s me.Denny Crane: No, it isn’t.Gil Furnald: Yes, it is.Denny Crane: No, it isn’t.Gil Furnald: sighing Ho, ho, ho! Deal with it.Hallway of Crane Poole & SchmidtTara Wilson: Alan.Alan Shore: Tara.Tara Wilson: What’s with the woman?Alan Shore: What woman?Tara Wilson: What woman?! The one you brought to the staff meeting.Alan Shore: She’s my elf, Tara. I thought I was quite clear on that.Tara Wilson: Yes. Very amusing. Why is she here?Alan Shore: Well, it seems I’ve put on a few pounds since last year, so she brought me my new suit. I do some work with the Salvation Army. We work as a team, actually. Is there a problem?Tara Wilson: Not at all.Alan Shore: But?Tara Wilson: Not that I’ve been doing background checks, but I have a friend who evidently knows an old friend of yours, and . . .Alan Shore: And?Tara Wilson: You once cohabited with a little person.Alan Shore: Two lovely years. I lived with her for three.Tara Wilson: Do you have a thing for little women?Alan Shore: I have a thing for women. You’ve never fallen for someone shorter than you?Tara Wilson: Well, I believe I’m involved with one now.Alan Shore:shifting his newspaper and posture to compare height to hers Either you’re mistaken, or I’m jealous. And he ambles away.[credits]Dr. Konigsberg’s OfficeLori Colson: It’s just very difficult to reconcile being drawn to a person I consider, well, repugnant.Dr. Konigsberg: Oh, you think you’re the first good girl to fall for a bad boy?Lori Colson: Is my problem annoying you?Dr. Konigsberg: No, I’m sorry. I—I just meant to convey it’s very common for women to be attracted to men they don’t admire. What could be at play here? There are qualities in yourself you don’t like or qualities about Alan Shore you wish you had.Lori Colson: That isn’t it. I like myself just fine.Dr. Konigsberg laughs, shaking his head.Lori Colson:chuckles I saw that.Dr. Konigsberg: Uh, look. This is not a great day for me. Perhaps we should reschedule?Lori Colson: Okay. They both arise. Is everything okay?Dr. Konigsberg: Yeah. pause as Lori Colson picks up her purse and jacket Could I speak to you as a lawyer?Lori Colson: Uh, sure. making a circular gesture with her hand But you’re gonna have to face the little clock towards me.Dr. Konigsberg: This is all privileged, right? Lawyer-client?Lori Colson: Of course.Dr. Konigsberg: Look, I—I have a patient who’s been with me for almost four years now. And he, um, he habitually speaks of fantasies, things he plans to do. They’re typically idle ruminations, I suppose—make him feel better. Lately he’s been talking about murdering his ex-wife. And at first I thought, harmless chatter again. But there seems to be such a resolve. Lori, I can’t be sure that it isn’t real this time. This man may very wellbe planning to kill his ex-wife, and I’m just not sure what to do.Denny Crane’s OfficeGil Furnald: sigh I just like wearing women’s clothes sometimes. It’s not a sexual turn-on. It . . well . . . it just feels right sometimes.Denny Crane: So, basically, you’re a sicko?Gil Furnald: I’m not sick.Denny Crane: Lighten up, man. So, what? You got caught in a skirt and that was it?Gil Furnald: My employer found out, and, yes, I got fired. They asked me a lot of questions, like whether I’m gay.Denny Crane: Are you? Ah, not that there’s anything wrong with it.Gil Furnald: Yes. But that does not make me an unfit Santa.Denny Crane: Criminal record?Gil Furnald: No. No, no, no, no, no. And there’s never been any incident. I have been a good Santa for eight years. A great Santa. I can show you the letters. There are kids and families who have specifically come back for me. And I thought, this is wrong. I should not lose my job because of how I like to dress.Dr. Konigsberg’s OfficeDr. Konigsberg is putting a videotape in a TV with a VHS player.Lori Colson: Does he know you taped him?Dr. Konigsberg: No. I’m just full of ethical violations. turns on the VHS playerBrian Stevens (TV): It’s important that I do it with my hands. I don’t know why. You could probably tell me why. But see, the thing is, I don’t want to shoot her or, uh, poison her or hit her with a car. No. It needs to be by strangulation.Dr. Konigsberg (TV): Do you have any guess as to why?Brian Stevens (TV): Well, for one, I actually want to feel the life going out of her. I mean, with my hands, I want to feel her body go limp. Also, I want her to experience it. I want her to know that she’s dying. And I want to see her eyes as I do it.Dr. Konigsberg turns off the tape with his remote.Lori Colson: And how do you know that this isn’t just talk?Dr. Konigsberg: I keep telling you, I don’t know. I—I mean, he’s often fantasized. L-last year he spoke of blowing up his boss. But his demeanor here—as I said, there’s a certain resolve that really concerns me.Lori Colson: Have you shown this to any other therapists or . . .Dr. Konigsberg: No, no, no. I’m the only one who can make that call.Lori Colson: And your call is it’s possible he’s going to do it?Dr. Konigsberg: Do I tell the ex-wife?Lori Colson: Well, I’m sure you know the law on this as well as I do. I mean, you have a duty to warn the victim if you’re reasonably certain she’s in physical danger.Dr. Konigsberg: But falling short of being certain?Lori Colson: You honor doctor-patient privilege.Dr. Konigsberg: This just seems crazy to me. I—I—I mean which side is better to err on?Denny Crane’s OfficeGil Furnald: A trial today?Denny Crane: Well, it’s not exactly a trial. It’s an evidentiary hearing.Gil Furnald: But I’d need to testify?Denny Crane: It’s the only way you can get a restraining order. We’ll lose the dress, by the way. Coat and tie. He sees Alan Shore walking down the hall. Alan! Excellent! gestures out the door Alan, Gil Furnald, Alan Shore. steps out the door, hand on Alan Shore’s shoulder Alan. Turns out that my Santa Claus is a sort of cross-dressing sicko. He’s more . . . you.Alan Shore: He is absolutely more me, Denny. But, unfortunately, my schedule . . .Denny Crane: Alan, I have trouble with this sort of subject matter.Alan Shore: You’re homophobic.Denny Crane: It’s not that.Alan Shore: What is it then?Denny Crane: It’s my father. Sometimes he wore dresses. He called it a kilt and sang all those Scottish songs, but we knew. Please, the hearing’s at 2 o’clock.Denny Crane walks away. Alan Shore goes into his office and shakes hands with Gil Furnald.Alan Shore: Hello.Gil Furnald: Hello.Hallway of Crane Poole & SchmidtAlan Shore: Sally. Could I trouble you to do a quick background check? I realize we haven’t spoken much since we stopped having sex and, frankly, I’m dismayed by that. But what I need to know is everything you can find out about my new client. handing her a blue sticky note Here’s his name, address, Social Security . . . Brad Chase: Is it true, you’re taking over the Santa case?Alan Shore: Yes, I am, Bradley. Is it of interest to you?Brad Chase: No. But it could be, if we, say, bet on it.Alan Shore: Another wager.Brad Chase: Why not?Alan Shore: And would you already have stakes in mind?Brad Chase: I keep thinking about your elf. How ‘bout if you win, I become your elf for the day, but if you lose, you become mine? Complete with a costume, of course.Alan Shore: And bells.Brad Chase: Oh, can’t leave out the bells.Lori Colson: Alan? Hey. Can I steal you for a second?Alan Shore: A second? A minute I could maybe do, but a second would be pushing it. Would you like me to push it?Lori Colson: You are so disgustingly vulgar. It’s important.Lori Colson’s OfficeDr. Konigsberg is waiting in her office; he arises when Lori Colson enters, Alan Shore close behind. Lori Colson: This is Dr. Konigsberg. Alan Shore.Alan Shore: Hello.Dr. Konigsberg: Ohh, Alan Shore. He looks meaningfully at Lori. Hunh.Lori Colson: Uh, Dr. Konigsberg has a patient who talks about killing his ex-wife and could be serious about it. Dr. Konigsberg: “Could” is the operative word. I can’t be sure.Lori Colson: Obviously there are some exposure problems. I mean, if the guy does do it, and it was learned Dr. Konigsberg knew of the risks beforehand . . .Alan Shore: The first thing I’d check is his malpractice policy. You don’t want to do anything to void coverage. Lori Colson: I have done that already.Alan Shore: What’s your specialty?Dr. Konigsberg: Couples counseling. I first saw the client and his wife together. Since the divorce, I’ve been working with him alone.Alan Shore: So they came to you to improve their relationship, and now one wants to kill the other. Not your best work, was it, Doctor? turns to Lori Colson And you’re seeing Dr. Konigsberg for what?Lori Colson: Uh, just to deal with the . . . as a lawyer. He hired me.Dr. Konigsberg:chuckling He’s a very mischievous man.Lori Colson: Look, can we stick to the case, folks?Alan Shore: Since the proposed victim was or is a patient, you’ve got real duty problems. If the threat is real, and you don’t tell her . . .Dr. Konigsberg: But I can’t be sure it’s real, which means my duty is to the patient.Alan Shore: Can you have another therapist meet with him, perhaps get an objective opinion?Dr. Konigsberg: I tried. No therapist will go near it for fear of potential liability.Alan Shore: Well, if it were me, I’d meet with him myself, pretending to be one of your colleagues.Lori Colson: That’s hardly an option.Alan Shore: Why? You need objectivity . . .Lori Colson: You can’t go there pretending to be a doctor.Alan Shore: Of course I can’t, because I’m in trial. But you can do it.Lori Colson: Oh, sure. And get disbarred?Dr. Konigsberg: I’d likely lose my license.Alan Shore: Oh, well. Silly me. I was thinking about the ex-wife. If it’s merely a bar card and a medical license you’re looking to preserve, you first opine to Lori that you’re not at all convinced the man intends to follow through on his threats. Then, you draft an opinion letter to the doctor telling him he need not disclose. Your respective asses will be covered, and everybody’s happy, assuming you like your asses covered. Personally, I love the feel of a stiff breeze against my rosy cheeks. In any event, pardon my misunderstanding.I thought it was potentially human life at stake.Alan Shore walks out, closes the door, leaving Lori Colson and Dr. Konigsberg with a decision to make.Court HallwayBrad Chase is talking to another attorney.Brad Chase: Oh, excuse me. Sylvia.Sylvia: What do you want now?Brad Chase: Why do you always think I want something? Why couldn’t it be that I just want to see the smiling face of the prettiest girl in the clerk’s office?Sylvia: What do you want, Brad?Brad Chase: I need a small favor—tiny.Sylvia: Mmm.Brad Chase: But first, please, can I see that smile?Sylvia:laughs and smiles God.Brad Chase: If I were 10 years younger.Sylvia: Or 10 years older. What’s the favor?Brad Chase: There’s a motion scheduled for this afternoon—Furnald vs Gordon’s Department Store. A lawyer named Alan Shore is seeking injunctive relief, unlawful discharge. I need this case to fall in Judge Hingham’s docket.Sylvia: Judge Hingham? Why would you want him?Brad Chase: Because he’s just right for this one.Sylvia: Exactly what kind of case is this?CourtroomJudge Harry Hingham: A ho-mo-sexual? That’s where we’re at now? Santa Clauses being played by ho-mo-sexuals?Alan Shore: I believe “homosexual” is one word, Judge. But to avoid confusion, let’s say, “gay.”Atty. Phillips: Let’s say, “transvetite,” because that was the stated reason . . .Alan Shore: Well, if dress code is the issue, my client promises to comply with . . .Judge Harry Hingham: A ho-mo-sexual transvestite?Brad Chase is sitting in the gallery, watching the proceedings.Judge Harry Hingham: You want me to allow children to sit in his lap?Atty. Phillips: Exactly.Alan Shore: Oh, boy.Atty. Phillips: Gordon’s Department Store certainly supports Mr. Furnald’s right to choose who or what he . . . Alan Shore: That’s a lie. You fired him as soon as he told you he was gay.Atty. Phillips: No, we fired him for cross-dressing, which is considered a fetish.Alan Shore: He’s played Santa for eight years without incident. In fact, he’s received glowing praise from both parents and employers.Judge Harry Hingham: Would you sit in his lap?Alan Shore: Sure. Why not? And he does. And he hasn’t gone homo erectus on me, if that was your fear. Judge Harry Hingham: You’re making entendres. Disgusting, sick, innuendo entendres.Alan Shore mouths the word, “Entendres” to ADA.Judge Harry Hingham: I’m not going to put an innocent child in the lap of an unnatural Santa Claus who dresses in female attire. There is a sanctity to the tradition of Christmas. It is perhaps the most sanctimonious holiday there is.Alan Shore: Then clearly, you should be its poster boy.Judge Harry Hingham: Motion for T.R.O. denied.Alan Shore: I’d at least like an evidentiary hearing so that I may present . . .Judge Harry Hingham: Denied. Denied, denied, denied. bangs gavelBrad Chase is clearly quite pleased with this decision; he waves at Alan ShoreGil Furnald: Why’d you do that? You antagonized him.Alan Shore: Actually, he antagonized me.Gil Furnald: This job means something to me, Mr. Shore.Alan Shore steps toward the bench, as Judge Hingham is headed out the door.Alan Shore: Your Honor . . .Judge Harry Hingham: I have made my ruling.Alan Shore: Yes, based on what you think my client is or what the defense has presented him to be. I ask you to at least hear from him before you take away his livelihood. Ten minutes as to why he’d make a good Santa. Please.Judge Harry Hingham: I’ll give you 10 minutes—5 for direct, 5 for cross.Dr Konigsberg’s OfficeBrian Stevens: I don’t understand why she’s here.Dr. Konigsberg: I explained it, Brian. When a patient makes a credible threat to commit violence, my colleague is here to observe because I may need counsel.Brian Stevens: Why? You should’ve told me this before.Dr. Konigsberg: Brian, would you tell Dr. Harper why you want to kill your ex-wife?Brian Stevens: I have no intention of killing her.Dr. Konigsberg: You don’t?Brian Stevens: Of course not. Murder is illegal in Massachusetts.Lori Colson: So when you were saying these things to Dr. Konigsberg . . .Brian Stevens: I never said them. Dr. Konigsberg is mistaken. I also have absolutely no intention of paying for two therapists. Good-bye. Takes his coat and walks out.Lori Colson: Clearly, he’s a little hostile.Dr. Konigsberg: Well, he’s angry over you being here, and I . . . I can’t say that I blame him.Lori Colson: Well, I don’t know if there’s enough to go to the police, but I think you should at least tell his ex-wife.Dr. Konigsberg: Will you go with me?Lori Colson: Me?Dr. Konigsberg: Lori, I’m about to break privilege, and I could very well be sued for it. This is treacherous ground, and I would like my lawyer present. So, please, do this with me.Buddha BarAlan Shore: I’m afraid my words are having little impact. Yours’ll have to.Gil Furnald: Okay.Alan Shore: You said this job means something to you, and you seemed rather impassioned.Gil Furnald: I am.Alan Shore: You have a college education, Mr. Furnald. You do well in your computer job. Why is this part-time employment so important?Gil Furnald: I don’t know.Alan Shore: Yes, you do.Gil Furnald: I suppose . . . As a kid—a gay kid who liked to wear dresses—that club is very small, by the way—most cross-dressers are heterosexual . . . Anyway, um, as a kid who felt like he didn’t belong anywhere, I would throw myself into all the make-believe that goes with Christmas. Hmm. As safe retreats go, I suppose it helped me survive . . . and it still does. Shall I say that tomorrow?Alan Shore: Say all of it.Lori Colson’s OfficeLori Colson: Would you tell?Brad Chase: I don’t know. I mean, if it’s a fantasy . . .Lori Colson: What if it’s not?Brad Chase: The benefit of the doubt has to go to privilege.Lori Colson: Even when the downside is death?Brad Chase: I’m not saying that it’s an easy call. gets out of his chair and walks over to the couch to sit next to Lori He got a hearing.Lori Colson: Sorry?Brad Chase: Shore. The cross-dressing Santa Claus. He actually got a hearing.Lori Colson: Don’t you think you’re taking this bet thing a little too far?Brad Chase: I’m not making a big deal about this. I’m just making conversation here.Lori Colson: Brad, you don’t like Alan, do you?Brad Chase: I don’t give the guy a thought one way or the other.Lori Colson: Can I say something to you as a friend?Brad Chase shrugs.Lori Colson: You’ve seemed kind of knotted up ever since he got here. It might help you if you just let your feelings out a little. Come on. It’s late at night. You’re having a beer with a buddy. Tell me how you feel about Alan Shore.Brad Chase: I don’t like him.Lori Colson: You can go deeper than that. What do you feel, Brad?Brad Chase: I hate him. He mocks me.Lori Colson: Deeper.Brad Chase: He mocks our Commander-in-Chief.Lori Colson: Deeper.Brad Chase: He’s got a putty ass and a flabby body and I can’t understand why women would rather sleep with him than me.Lori Colson: There. It’s out.Brad Chase: And that includes you, by the way.Lori Colson: First of all, I don’t sleep with colleagues.Brad Chase: You’re ducking the issue.Lori Colson: I am not. I have no interest in ducking either one of you. We’ve gone deep enough.Brad Chase: I really need to win this bet.The Break Room at Crane Poole & SchmidtAlan Shore: According to employees at Gordon’s, Gil Furnald gets nothing but raves as Santa.Denny Crane: Oh, come on. Would you sit in his lap?Alan Shore: Why does everybody keep asking me that?Brad Chase: Tough break drawing Judge Hingham. Who’d ever imagine that?Alan Shore: Brad? Did you have something to do with my drawing Judge Hingham?Brad Chase: That would be dirty pool.Mary Stevens’ HomeBrian Stevens (TV): I actually want to feel the life going out of her. I mean, with my hands. I want to feel her body go limp. Also, I want her to experience it. I want her to know that she’s dying. And I don’t want it to be instant. I want her to actually have the thought, “My God. He’s killing me.” And I want to see her eyes as I do it.Mary Stevens: What’s happened to him?Dr. Konigsberg: Let me reiterate. He’s talked like this before without ever going through with it, obviously. Many people fantasize.Mary Stevens: For him to even speak this way . . . This is not Brian. He is a docile person.Dr. Konigsberg: I realize that. This might also simply be talk. Safe talk that allows him to feel strong. Sometimes, the weaker the person’s constitution . . .Mary Stevens: Is he going to kill me?Dr. Konigsberg: Mary, I’m here because I don’t know. I really don’t think so. But you are the one person that knows him better than I do.Mary Stevens: I’ve never heard him talk like this, ever. Did you tell the police?Lori Colson: Uh, it’s tricky, Mrs. Stevens. This is doctor-patient privilege stuff. We shouldn’t even be telling you this.Mary Stevens: He plans to kill me, for God’s sake!Lori Colson: Which is why we are telling you, on the possibility that these threats are . . .Mary Stevens: I’m calling the police.Lori Colson: I’m not sure that they could do anything at this point. I mean, they certainly can’t arrest him for things he told a therapist in confidence. What I would suggest: Let Dr. Konigsberg continue to monitor he situation. He’s seeing your ex-husband every day. If things progress further, we will call the police. In the meantime, maybe you could stay with a friend.Mary Stevens: I have animals. I can’t do . . .Lori Colson: Or get a friend to stay with you.CourtroomGil Furnald: I’ve been sitting in that chair as Santa for eight years, and I’ve been an exemplary Santa. People will tell you, even if they don’t shop at Gordon’s, they come to see me.Alan Shore: For how many of those eight years have you been dressing as a woman?Gil Furnald: All of them.Alan Shore: And in all this time, had your cross-dressing ever been an issue at work?Gil Furnald: No. I was always in the Santa costume. People never even knew. It was always my intention to keep my worlds separate. So, it’s been my secret.Alan Shore: But your secret got out.Gil Furnald: Last week, I had a boy in my lap—eight years old. I asked him what he wanted for Christmas. He said, “Santa, please make me normal.” He was starting to cry as he said it.Alan Shore: He said, “Make me normal”?Gil Furnald: Yes. He said, um—He said he was sick. He said that he liked to wear girls’ clothes, and he was sure he’d go to hell. And I said, “Son, you’re not alone, and you’re not sick.” And I told him about me.Alan Shore: Thank you, sir.Atty. Phillips: So, while on the job, you told an eight-year-old boy that Santa is a cross-dresser?Gil Furnald: Yes.Hallway of Crane Poole & SchmidtTara Wilson: Did the judge rule?Alan Shore: No. Miraculously, I persuaded him to let me give a final statement, though I have no idea what to say. The fact that he told a child he’s a cross-dresser . . . I never should have put him on the stand. I’ve got to somehow make this a gay issue.Tara Wilson: Personally, I think you’ll look very sexy in the elf outfit.Alan Shore: I have no doubt. Yet, I don’t want to lose. I’ve grown attached to this Santa.Denny Crane: Brad seems pretty happy. Does he have reason?Alan Shore: Denny, you said if I ever had another Hail Mary emergency, you’d make the call.Denny Crane: Really. Are you sure?Alan Shore: I need you to make the call.Lori Colson: And what’s this about?Paul Lewiston: It’s extremely delicate. Though privilege typically extends to the whole firm, I have assured him that this would go no further than you and me.Lori Colson: Okay.Paul Lewiston’s OfficePaul Lewiston: Meet Brian Stevens. Brian, this is the attorney I . . .Brian Stevens and Lori Colson recognize each other.Paul Lewiston: What’s going on?Lori Colson: This is your client?Brian Stevens: You’re an attorney?Lori Colson: Um, yes.Brian Stevens: You said you were a doctor!Paul Lewiston: What the hell is going on?Lori Colson: Uh, Paul, we have a conflict. I represent the therapist who is treating Mr. Stevens.Brian Stevens: She’s the one who went to my ex-wife. She’s the one who told Mary I planned on killing her. She pretended to be a doctor.Reverend Al Sharpton’s Office Reception AreaAdministrative Assistant: He can see you for about five minutes. After that, his day is completely . . .Alan Shore: Five minutes is more than enough.Administrative Assistant: You can go in.Alan Shore: Thank you. enters Reverend Al Sharpton’s office Thank you so much for agreeing to see me. My name is Alan Shore, and . . .Reverend Al Sharpton:holds up an index finger, as he reads papers on his desk Go.Alan Shore: My name is Alan Shore. Perhaps you’ll remember . . .Reverend Al Sharpton:holds up an index finger again Everyone has a name, son. I’m not interested in yours. You have five minutes because you know him. gestures at pictures on the wall behind AlanAlan Shore:turns to look at a picture of Reverend Al Sharpton with Bill Clinton Bill Clinton?Reverend Al Sharpton gestures again at the wall. This time, Alan sees a picture of Reverend Al Sharpton with Denny CraneAlan Shore: Ah, well, you’ll remember at the behest of Mr. Crane, you made an appearance in one of my cases involving an African-American Little Orphan Annie. And you were extremely effective. “Give us a black Spiderman. Give us a black Superman who can leap tall buildings.” All the big icons. Now I have another case featuring a gay man who’s being discriminated against. And this one involves the biggest icon of them all—Santa Claus. My problem is the judge. His tiny brain has been calcified by intolerance. However, he’s certainly a slave to public opinion, as judges tend to be. But I can’t really move the public. You can. Do you understand what I’m asking?Reverend Al Sharpton: You want me to be your rabbit.Alan Shore: I want you to be Reverend Al Sharpton in all his massive glory. I want you to charge in there, say, “Give us a gay Santa Claus,” and button it with three “God Almighties!”Reverend Al Sharpton: Stop. I don’t do things big. I’m subtle.Alan Shore: Yes.

Holds his right hand over his heart, as he gestures with the other hand at the picture of Reverend Al Sharpton with Denny Crane Denny Crane.Hallway at Crane Poole & SchmidtTara Wilson: You got to Sharpton?Alan Shore: I don’t know. He said he’d think about it.Tara Wilson: Does he just do this kind of thing now for lawyers?Alan Shore: He does it for Denny. Let’s hope he does it for me.Brad Chase: All set? You don’t want me to miss the ruling, do you? Got the costume. holds up a gym bag, bells jinglingPaul Lewiston’s OfficePaul Lewiston: My God.

You’re suddenly gonna start playing Solomon and break rules—sacred rules—whenever you see fit? I could be disbarred for this.Lori Colson: You? Why?Paul Lewiston: For not turning you in.Lori Colson:sigh I’m sorry, Paul. I just . . . I’m sorry.Paul Lewiston: I think it’s this Alan Shore character. Ever since he got here . . .Lori Colson: This has nothing to do with Alan Shore. I’m not influenced by him.Paul Lewiston: You used to be influenced by me.Lori Colson: Tell me what you want me to do. I’ll resign if you . . . Just tell me what you want.Paul Lewiston: First, I want you to apologize to Mr. Stevens.Lori Colson: I did that.Paul Lewiston: Well, you need to do it again. And hope to God he doesn’t sue us.Lori Colson: How long have you known this man, Paul?Paul Lewiston: Years. Only through work. But he doesn’t strike me as being capable of violence, if that’s what you’re asking. I’ll get him back in here. And on the chance that he could be violent, when you apologize, I will be in the room. And for the sake of humoring me, let’s stay completely away from Alan Shore.

Phillips: Mr. Furnald was fired mainly because my clients feared he’d share his secret proclivity with a child, which, by his own testimony, is exactly what he did.Alan Shore: I object to that summation; it was entirely too short.Judge Harry Hingham: What?Alan Shore: I’m only worried for you, your Honor. If you’re inclined to rule against us, he’s got to at least give you a good argument to hang your hat on, so it looks good to all this media. Did you notice the media here? Judge Harry Hingham: Are you on drugs? You’ve got 30 seconds.Alan Shore: That’s what I was afraid of. Your Honor, the child in question, whom my client shared his secret with—that child was in pain. Being a good Santa Claus, Gil Furnald sought to relieve that pain.Judge Harry Hingham: By telling him he was a ho-mo-sexual.Alan Shore: Those three little words again. checking the door again He did not tell the boy he was gay. He only said that he also liked to dress in female attire. And that, only after the child himself broached the subject.。

Boston LegalAn Eye For An EyeSeason 1, Episode 5Written by Jeff Rake & David E. Kelley© 2004 David E. Kelley Productions. All Rights Reserved.Broadcast: Oct 31, 2004Transcribed by SueB for It’s Halloween in night court, which is filled with people in various costumes awaiting appearances in front of the judge.Beat Cop: Suspects were first observed at approximately 10:30 pm across the street from the station house. Robin and Catwoman stood guard as Batman soaped an unoccupied police vehicle.Alan Shore (as Batman): S.U.V. Your Honor. An egregious gas guzzler, and filthy, by the way.Night Court Judge: Continue, Officer.Beat Cop: Officer Brody and I approached. An altercation ensued.Tara Wilson (as Robin): We thought they were hooligans dressed in costume.Alan Shore: As the Village People perhaps.Tara Wilson: Hmm.Beat Cop: Suspects then attempted to evade apprehension by discharging one or more eggs in our direction. Charges are vandalism, resisting arrest and pandering.Alan Shore: Pandering? Our only tricks were in conjunction with our treating. And I do not look like a pimp.Beat Cop: You look like an idiot. The cat’s a known prostitute, your honor.Hooker (as Catwoman): I object to that!Night Court Judge: All right. Masks off now. (the three comply). I know you. Alan Shore.Alan Shore: Good to see you, Judge. My colleague, Tara Wilson.Tara Wilson: Hello.Night Court Judge: Would you care to explain to me why two attorneys are out cavorting with a prostitute?Tara Wilson: We needed somebody to be Catwoman.Alan Shore: Someone with a whip.Night Court Judge: Mr. Shore, while you are a gifted attorney, you bring embarrassment and shame to the legal community.Alan Shore. You’re very kind, sir.Night Court Judge: Case dismissed.Morning staff meeting in a conference room at Crane, Poole & Schmidt.Paul Lewiston: What’s this with the Markham settlement?Brad Chase: He refuses to sign. He keeps redlining us on language. We think that he’s postponing until after the new year for tax reasons. I’ll keep pushing him as best I can. On a personal aside, I’d like to remind everyone to vote. It’s our civic duty. Whatever our politics, at the end of the day, we’re Americans. We bleed red, white and blue.Paul Lewiston: Morgan versus Rayburn.Alan Shore: Still in trial. Client survived his testimony barely. Tara and I are pushing a settlement. And on a personal aside, I’m bored.Paul Lewiston: I beg your pardon.Alan Shore: You people keep assigning me these boring cases. At my old firm, I got murderers. I had clients who would touch themselves in public restrooms. These were people you could root for, not to mention relate to. Paul Lewiston: Is there some other place you’d rather be, Mr. Shore?Alan Shore: Yes, I want to be on cable. That’s where all the best work is being done.A paralegal enters and whispers a message to Paul.Paul Lewiston: Who’s doing the Holcomb case?Tara Wilson: Uh, that’s Edwin Poole.Paul Lewiston (to Lori Colson): Aren’t you -Lori Colson: I just handled the decert motion. I didn’t prep the trial.Paul Lewiston: Surely, Edwin assigned it to somebody.Lori Colson: Well, um - actually…. (she glances at a vacant-looking Denny Crane).Paul Lewiston: Denny? Are you handling the Holcomb Pharmaceuticals trial?Denny Crane: I am.Paul Lewiston: Are you prepared to try this case?Denny Crane: I will be.Paul Lewiston: You will be? Are you aware the trial begins tomorrow?After the meeting, in Paul’s office.Paul Lewiston: We have a problem, Lori. You at least need to backstop Denny here. I don’t -Lori Colson: I can’t. I’m in trial myself today.Paul Lewiston: In trial on what?Lori Colson: I, uh, was assigned a case a couple of days ago which I sort of took.Paul Lewiston: What kind of case?Lori Colson: Uh, just a … homicide.Paul Lewiston: What? Why are you suddenly taking court appointments?Lori Colson: I just need kind of a change, that’s all.Paul Lewiston: Now everyone here is dissatisfied? What is this?Lori Colson: The case I did last week, it kind of awakened me a little. I’m feeling the need to connect with people.Paul Lewiston: Criminal people?Lori Colson: Please don’t trivialize this.Paul Lewiston: Criminal defense is a far cry from criminal prosecution, Lori. You won’t like it.Lori Colson: How can you possibly know that before I even -Paul Lewiston: I know you.Tara Wilson is examining a document in an office, when Alan Shore enters.Alan Shore: So….shall we?Tara Wilson: We shall. Do you have Morgan’s address?Alan Shore: I do. But what I meant is, shall we continue where we left off last night?Tara Wilson: In front of my building, with you peeing in the planter.Alan Shore: I was about to burst. You should’ve let me come up.Tara Wilson: That plant needed watering.Alan Shore: You should’ve let me come up, Tara.Tara Wilson: It was 4:00 am. If I let you up, next thing we know we’re in the liquor cabinet. Two minutes after that, passed out. Robin sprawled across Batman. What would they say at the Hall of Justice?Alan Shore: Was that what you were afraid of? The sprawling?Tara Wilson: I invited you out to get your mind off Sally.Alan Shore: You’ve succeeded. It’s back to an old, familiar, wanton place.Tara Wilson: Alan, we agreed that you and I couldn’t work.Alan Shore: What was the reason again? I’ve forgotten.Tara Wilson: It would be trouble. One night out, we lose all control and end up behind bars.Alan Shore: Which was utterly intoxicating, was it not? Losing control together. What about it, Tara? After all this time, maybe we should undress -Tara Wilson: We’re late.As they walk out of the office and down the hall, Sally watches them go.Denny Crane is staring at a stack of thick binders on his desk and lifting them one at a time.Denny Crane: Thick file.Paul Lewiston: Of course it’s a thick file. It’s a class action involving thousands of plaintiffs, and it’s complicated, Denny.Denny Crane: Thick file.Paul Lewiston: Look, all we can do is throw ourselves at the mercy of the judge. If you and I both go to see him and explain Edwin’s situation, maybe he’ll give us some time.Denny Crane: Thick file.Alan Shore and Tara Wilson are visiting client Bill Morgan at his apartment.Bill Morgan: $70,000.Alan Shore: It’s their opening offer.Bill Morgan (shaking his head): Hmm.Alan Shore: You seem like a very nice man, Mr. Morgan. You also seem like a hypochondriac.Bill Morgan: These headaches are real.Alan Shore: I have no doubt. You’ve also complained on several occasions that you were suffering from tanapox virus.Bill Morgan: Because I noticed the characeristic papular lesions. Very tender. Approximately two centimeters in diameter.Alan Shore: You realize the tanapox virus is endemic to equatorial Africa?Bill Morgan: Yes.Alan Shore: Have you enjoyed your many visits to equatorial Africa?Bill Morgan: I’ve never been there.Alan Shore: Ah. Then perhaps you can see the outline of our problem, Mr. Morgan.Bill Morgan: Look. It’s not my fault. I go to the library and I read books. I try to understand how I might get better. But sometimes the books, they scare me even more ‘cause they describe diseases I didn’t even know I had. Maybe I am a hypochondriac. What do you take for that?Lori Colson and Sally Heep are interviewing client Jason Binder in a conference room.Jason Binder: Miss Colson, I have never been in a fight before.Lori Colson: Okay. We need to be able to call a witness or two who can speak to your nonviolent character. Jason Binder: I told you - my mother.Lori Colson: Mothers tend to come off as biased.Sally Heep: There’s gotta be somebody else. Friends, coworkers - There’s gotta be somebody.Jason Binder: Well, I live at home. I work at home. I hardly ever go out. My mother’s the only one that - But I gotta warn you. She doesn’t make the best impression.Lori Colson: What do you mean?Jason Binder: Well, she’s got a glass eye, and it doesn’t fit so good. And when she gets upset - If you put her on the stand, don’t get her upset.In Judge Katherine Taylor’s courtroom, witness Kevin Quinlan is on the stand.Kevin Quinlan: I went up to the bar to get a few drinks. And when I turned around, that’s when I saw Jared and him exchanging words. And I could tell it wasn’t friendly.A.D.A. George Martin: By “him”?Kevin Quinlan: The defendant. So I started heading back, and the place was really packed, so I was kind of blocked. And that’s when I saw Jared push him. And then Jared took a swing, and that was it.A.D.A. George Martin: What was it? Tell us what you saw.Kevin Quinlan: The defendant - he just threw a punch right to Jared’s throat, and Jared just collapsed to the ground. And when I got there, he was barely breathing, and he was making, like, a sucking noise. And then he just stopped breathing, and I tried to do mouth-to-mouth. And so did another guy who said he knew C.P.R., but he - he just died right there on the floor.A.D.A. George Martin: Okay. Now, Mr. Quinlan, this is important. Describe the punch as best you can.Kevin Quinlan: It was a - a short, direct punch. And I could - I could tell by the way he was holding his hand and how he threw the punch that he knew martial arts. It was a kill punch.Lori Colson: Objection!Judge Katherine Taylor: Sustained.A.D.A. George Martin: Why, in your lay opinion, sir, did you regard it as a kill punch?Lori Colson: Objection.Judge Katherine Taylor: Overruled. He can answer.Kevin Quinlan: By hitting the throat, you can make it collapse, and then the person suffocates which is exactly what happened.A.D.A. George Martin: Okay.Lori Colson: You didn’t actually see the altercation begin. You turned around, and they were having words? Kevin Quinlan: That’s right.Lori Colson: You couldn’t hear what was said?Kevin Quinlan: No.Lori Colson: Mr. Quinlan, when the police arrived and questioned you, did you tell them that you recognized my client’s punch as a form of martial arts?Kevin Quinlan: No. I was probab -Lori Colson: Did you demonstrated to them the fist you just made for the jury?Kevin Quinlan: I was too shook up.Lori Colson: In fact, you made no mention of martial arts until after it was published in the newspapers.Kevin Quinlan: And when I read it, it clicked. It all made perfect sense because that’s what I saw.Lori Colson: Hmm. You just forgot to mention it when the police specifically asked you what you saw? How many beers had you had that night, sir?Kevin Quinlan: Three.Lori Colson: How many beers had Jared Grant had?Kevin Quinlan: Three.Lori Colson: So you admittedly couldn’t hear the exchange, you admittedly didn’t see the altercation begin, and you’d been drinking?Paul Lewiston and Denny Crane are paying a visit to Judge Brian Franzetti in his chambers.Paul Lewiston: Certainly no one could anticipate Edwin Poole’s illness.Judge Brian Franzetti: This unanticipated illness occurred weeks ago. You come to me the day before the trial? Paul Lewiston: The simple truth is this one fell through the cracks.Judge Brian Franzetti: The plaintiff has witnesses from out of town.Paul Lewiston: We’d be willing to assume those costs.Judge Brian Franzetti: Oh, gee! What a swell bunch of guys!Paul Lewiston: Your Honor -Judge Brian Franzetti: Oh, no, no, no, no - I’m sick of this. Your firm has employed a strategy of system heel-dragging. It is immoral.Paul Lewiston: Edwin Poole is the only one -Judge Brian Franzetti: Whose fault is that? You people should be sued for malpractice.Denny Crane: Brian, you and I have a relationship. I think of you as a friend.Judge Brian Franzetti: Yes, well, that friendship has gotta take a backseat to principle. I’m sorry.Denny Crane: Well, you know, Brina, given our relationship, I feel entitled to be honest, the way friends are during difficult times. Can I be honest with you, Brian?Judge Brian Franzetti: Please.Paul Lewiston: Denny.Denny Crane: You’re a bastard, and a greedy one at that. This is a class action. You get credit for all the consolidated cases in one fell swoop. You’re looking to make presiding judge. You need that credit by calendar year’s end. That’s why you’re desperate to move this thing forward - to pad your docket. This is about ambition, not morality, you greedy, sniveling, little wop.Judge Brian Franzetti: Motion for continuance denied.Denny Crane: You know what I’m gonna do, Brian? Just to show you there are no hard feelings? I’m gonna sleep with your wife.In Paul Lewiston’s office, he, Denny Crane, and Brad Chase are meeting with the Holcomb clients.Paul Lewiston: It is our recommendation that you discharge us as counsel. Ask the judge for time to find new attorneys. The only alternative is proceeding tomorrow, which I don’t think we want to do.Derek Ross: Edwin Poole never even gave us this trial date. He told us it was continued indefinitely.Paul Lewiston: Which is why we’re suggesting that you discharge us. He has got to give you time to find new counsel.Lori Colson and Sally Heep are walking through the halls at Crane, Poole & Schmidt.Lori Colson: You have to handle this, Sally.Sally Heep: Me?Lori Colson: Look, I have this thing about glass eyes. I once had a teacher with a glass eye, and sometimes when he’d get mad, he’d take it out and whack it on his desk. Gave me nightmares.Tara Wilson approaches them from the opposite direction.Tara Wilson: Hi there.Lori Colson: Hey. (then to Sally Heep) What was that?Sally Heep: Nothing. Someone just seems a little overeager to rekindle the flame with Alan Shore.Alan Shore and Tara Wilson are meeting with opposing counsel.Attorney Braxton Mason: The offer was firm at 70.Alan Shore: Yes. We thought if you’d unfirm it to one and a quarter, we could be done. Your client wouldn’t have to testify tomorrow which, of course, would free him up to misdiagnose others.Attorney Braxton Mason: You don’t seem to get it, Mr. Shore. We offered 70 as nuisance change.Alan Shore: Yes. We just feel Mr. Morgan is a much bigger nuisance than you give him credit for. And I’m an enormous nuisance. We should get something for that.Lori Colson and Sally Heep approach the door of Helen Binder’s apartment.Sally Heep: I feel nauseous.Lori Colson: You’ll be fine. They reach the door. Knock on it.Sally Heep: You knock on it.Lori Colson: Sally!Sally Heep: If I’m doing the talking, the least you can do is -The door opens suddenly, and both women scream in surprise.Helen Binder: You his lawyers?Sally Heep: Hi.Helen Binder: Hi.Sally Heep: I’m Sally Heep. This is -Lori Colson (looking down): Lori Colson. Hello.Sally Heep: Uh, we just wanted to ask you a few questions, Mrs. Binder, if we could.Helen Binder: Oh, come on in.The three women are now seated in Mrs. Binder’s apartment.Helen Binder: He’s a wonderful boy with a gentle heart.Sally Heep: Yes. Our problem is, you seem to be the only person to truly know him.Helen Binder (sighs): He thinks I’ll make a bad witness on account of the eye. It’s glass, you see? Look close. Sally Heep: Yes.Helen Binder (looking toward Lori): Hmm?Lori Colson: Yeah.Sally Heep: The thing is the prosecution is obviously claiming that Jason’s heart is not gentle.Helen Binder: Has he ever been in trouble? Has he ever been arrested? Has he ever caused problems for anybody? No. He is a nice young man, and it’s the way I raised him.Sally Heep: That’s exactly what we’ll need you to say. I’m also maybe gonna take you shopping, get your hair done. The more presentable, the -Helen Binder: He deserved to die - Jared Grant.Sally Heep: Uh, why do you say that?Helen Binder: He beat up my Jason.Sally Heep: Well, he didn’t exactly beat him up. There was an altercation.Helen Binder: He beat him up! The man is evil, and he deserved to die!Sally Heep: Let’s calm down.Helen Binder: He deserved it, I tell you!Helen’s glass eye bounces onto the coffee table and rolls across and onto the floor.In Judge Paul Resnick’s courtroom, defendant Dr. Steven Rayburn is on the witness stand.Attorney Braxton Mason: Dr. Rayburn, over these six months that Mr. Morgan was in your care, how many visits did he make to your practice?Dr. Steven Rayburn: Thirty-eight.Attorney Braxton Mason: Is that a lot?Dr. Steven Rayburn: Four times as many as any other patient. We joked he was the office mascot. You name the condition, Mr. Morgan was convinced he had it. Cold, flu, bronchitis, uh, shingles, adult-onset diabetes.Bill Morgan (to Tara Wilson): I never complained of adult-onset diabetes. That’s characterized by excessive thirst. Does it seem to you like I’ve been drinking a lot today?Tara Wilson: I’m sure you’re fine, Bill.Attorney Braxton Mason: Mr. Morgan contends your neglect drove him to this state.Dr. Steven Rayburn: The truth is I bent over backwards to accommodate him. He always needed to be seen immediately. And busy as my practice is, I always made the time.Alan Shore: I applaud you, sir, for your tireless commitment to my client. What a guy. (he begins to clap)Attorney Braxton Mason: Objection.Judge Paul Resnick: Sustained.Alan Shore: Oh. So, these 38 visits - on the house?Dr. Steven Rayburn: I’m sorry?Alan Shore: They were free visits?Dr. Steven Rayburn: No.Alan Shore: Oh. So you charged him. That makes sense. So, with all his complaining, his incapacitation, that pinched look on his face, there’s nothing wrong with him?Dr. Steven Rayburn: Nothing clinically, no. It’s in his head.Alan Shore: Traditional home for the migraine, is it not?Dr. Steven Rayburn: It’s psychosomatic. He’s a classic hypochondriac.Alan Shore: I see. Well, there’s a diagnosis. Tell me, what treatment did you prescribe for my client’s classic hypochondria?Dr. Steven Rayburn: I’m a general practictioner, not a psychiatrist.Alan Shore: So you referred him out to whom?Dr. Steven Rayburn: No one in particular. I did tell him he needed help. I believe I even gave him a list of practitioners.Alan Shore: Ah. So he kept coming to you. You kept taking his money. You did not treat him. And you referred him to … no one in particular.Dr. Steven Rayburn: I’m a G.P. I told him to seek mental treatment. I advised it. I can’t force it.Alan Shore: Once again, he kept coming, you kept taking the money, and you referred him to … no one in particular.In Judge Brian Franzetti’s courtroom, the Holcomb clients have requested a delay to find new counsel. Judge Brian Franzetti: So you now want to fire your lawyers?Derek Ross: Yes, Your Honor. We had no idea trial was about to start. That’s how incompetent these people are.Judge Brian Franzetti: Oh, and I suppose you had no idea that your company was bilking senior citizens? Derek Ross: Certainly Your Honor intends to keep an open mind with regard to the -Judge Brian Franzetti: Here’s the deal. I give you one day to find new counsel. Twenty-four hours. After that, I’m fining you $250,000 a day for any further delay.The Holcomb clients and the Crane, Poole & Schmidt legal team are leaving the courtroom.Derek Ross: It almost seemed personal. Have you done anything to upset this guy?Denny Crane: Not that I can think of.Adam Herbett: Well, look, aside from preparation concerns, we’ve got a bigger problem. This judge, he’s biased. Paul Lewiston: This is what I propose we do. File an interlocutory appeal asking-Derek Ross: At 250,000 a day.Paul Lewiston: While we’re filing that appeal, we’ll go forward. Should we win, we can suspend the trial. Should we lose, we won’t incur the fine.Derek Ross: But are you people ready to try this case?Denny Crane: I can try it. Denny Crane.Paul Lewiston: There were some settlement discussions that broke down. If Denny can open big, that might bring them back to the table which may be the best way to go at this point.In Katherine Taylor’s courtroom, witness Gregory Stone is on the stand.Gregory Stone: It was four years ago, at a park in Brighton.A.D.A. George Martin: You met the defendant?Gregory Stone: Well, I didn’t exactly meet him.A.D.A. George Martin: Well, what then?Gregory Stone: I beat the crap out of him. (to Judge Taylor) E-excuse me. I was a different person then.A.D.A. George Martin: Okay, Mr. Stone. We need to be very specific about what happened back then. Gregory Stone: Well, he tried to get into a game of pickup hoops. Me and another guy in the game, we started dissing him a little. He said something back, and we beat him up pretty good. I’m not proud of it.A.D.A. George Martin: And you’re sure it was Jason Binder?Gregory Stone: Yeah. When I saw his picture on the news, I remembered his face. It was definitely him.A.D.A. George Martin: And what about the other guy who beat him up?Gregory Stone: Jared Grant, the guy he killed.Lori Colson and Sally Heep are meeting privately with Jason Binder.Lori Colson: You lied to me. Not only were you in a fight before -Jason Binder: It doesn’t prove anything.Lori Colson: Now they have a motive, Jason. The victim beats you up four years ago. You take up tae kwon do. You just so happen to encounter him, at which point you kill him?Jason Binder: It wasn’t like that.Lori Colson: That’s why your mom said he deserved to die, because -Jason Binder: It wasn’t like that!Lori Colson: What am I supposed to argue now?Sally Heep: Let’s have it, Jason. Did you go to that bar to get revenge?Jason Binder: I went there to stand up to him. You have no idea how haunted I was by - I didn’t even put up my hands four years ago. It wasn’t getting beat up that stuck with me. It was that I didn’t even - I just let myself get beat up.Lori Colson: So you took up martial arts.Jason Binder: And I went there to stand up to him. I didn’t plan a fight. I certainly didn’t go there to kill him. Then when he swung at me, I just - I swung back. I never meant to kill him.Denny Crane’s office, which is a flurry of activity with assistants scurrying and flip charts surrounding his desk.Denny Crane: Who are we overbilling? Medicare or senior citizens?Julia: Both, but Medicare isn’t suing us.Denny Crane: “Us”? Meaning the drug company?Julia: Correct.Denny Crane: But if the hospitals are doing the overcharging, why are the seniors suing the drug company? Brad Chase: Denny, we’ve been over this before. The drug company, our client, has the sweetheart deals with the hospitals. We give them rebates, so they disguise the real cost of the drugs. They then bill Medicare for the higher, allegedly inflated costs.Denny Crane: Really? What’s our defense to that?Alan Shore, Tara Wilson and Bill Morgan are in a meeting with Attorney Braxton Mason.Alan Shore: Seventy-five. You’ve upped your offer by $5,000.Attorney Braxton Mason: We feel it’s generous, particularly when your client’s injuries aren’t real.Bill Morgan: They’re real.Alan Shore: All right, Bill.Attorney Braxton Mason: You know, Mr. Morgan. I don’t typically counsel opposing parties, but I might advise a legal malpractice claim against the attorney who filled your head with million-dollar windfalls.Alan Shore: You seem to have a little something wedged in between numbers four and five. Hmm. Guess it’s just part of your mouth. One last proposal, and it’s entirely possible I’m kidding, by the way, depending upon your reaction. 300,000, sealed. We kick back 50 to you under the table.Attorney Braxton Mason: Mr. Shore, I guarantee you I am not that kind of attorney.Alan Shore: Really? Gosh, I am.Attorney Braxton Mason: I should report you directly to the bar, if not the district attorney.Alan Shore: Well, if that’s how you feel, then I was kidding.Attorney Braxton Mason: I’m going to the judge now.Alan Shore: Excellent. New trial. That’ll certainly cost your client much more than 75,000.Attorney Braxton Mason: Your offer is rejected.Tara Wilson: Suppose he does go to the judge.Alan Shore: Oh, please. He doesn’t want a mistrial. He thinks he’s won. Plus, he can’t prove I wasn’t kidding. I’m known to be funny.In Judge Katherine Taylor’s courtroom, Helen Binder is on the witness stand.Helen Binder: This is a child who wouldn’t slap a mosquito. He would shoo it away. He couldn’t bring himself to harm a fly or any animal, certainly not a human being.A.D.A. George Martin: Four years harboring a grudge doesn’t suggest a rage to you?Helen Binder: He was bullied by many people, Mr. Martin, not just Jared Grant.A.D.A. George Martin: But he killed Jared Grant.Helen Binder: He got into a fight which had a tragic ending. He never intended to kill, nor could he.A.D.A. George Martin: He learned a lethal martial artz maneuver that -Helen Binder: He learned to defend himself. Look at the size of him, for God’s sake. What was he to do? Fend people off with a sharp wit?A.D.A. George Martin: Mrs. Binder, you love your son very much, don’t you?Helen Binder: Of course I do.A.D.A. George Martin: In fact, he’s your only child. He’s all you have, isn’t he?Helen Binder: Yes.A.D.A. George Martin: He lives with you - or did - before his arrest?Helen Binder: There’s something wrong with that?A.D.A. George Martin: I bet you would do or say anything to keep him from going to prison.Helen Binder: I’m up here telling the truth.A.D.A. George Martin: No. You’re telling lies to spare a loved one a life sentence.Helen Binder: No. You’re the one that’s telling lies! You’re the liar here!A.D.A. George Martin: Your son’s a killer!Helen Binder: No, he is not!A.D.A. George Martin: Your son is a killer!Helen Binder: No, he is not!Helen’s glass eye clatters to the ground and rolls all the way across the courtroom floor.Denny Crane and the team continue to prepare for the Holcomb case in his office.Denny Crane: What does a rubber glove have to do with it?Brad Chase: Denny, the alleged fraud goes beyond just prescription drugs. It goes to medical supplies as well. Denny Crane: I see a rubber glove, I’m heading in the other direction, I’ll tell you that.Paul Lewiston: Denny, do you understand what this case is about?Denny Crane: I do, Paul.Paul Lewiston: Can you succinctly tell us?Denny Crane: The plaintiff thinks he’s getting bilked for drugs and supplies. His evidence is we charge hospitals and clinics less for those very drugs and supplies. Our argument is, the mere offering of a discount to a consumer does not constitute the overbilling to another. In fact, since hospitals and clinics with E.R.’s regularly treat those who cannot pay, an argument could be made that we’re extending these discounts to those most in need. We’re saving lives, damn it. And I will not apologize for my client’s billing practices. I salute them. I invite you to salute them.Brad Chase: Okay. Let’s turn to the vertical integration between our clients and the hospitals.Denny Crane: What the hell is that?Tara Wilson is fixing tea in the break room at Crane, Poole & Schmidt when Lori Colson enters.Lori Colson: Earl Grey, huh?Tara Wilson: Hmm.Lori Colson: That would keep me up till Thursday.Tara Wilson: Hopefully a few hours at least.Lori Colson: You and Alan pulling a late one?Tara Wilson: Might be. We’re closing tomorrow.Lori Colson: What are you doing tonight?Tara Wilson: Preparing.Lori Colson: Right. You know, the whole Sally and Alan thing, she’s still pretty raw.Tara Wilson: Meaning?Lori Colson: Oh, just that if you had any intentions of -Alan Shore (who has entered the room unnoticed): Eating her? Raw would certainly be problematic. All that kicking and screaming. Rare often works for me. Seared. I’m sorry. Did you mean something else?Lori Colson: I’m just looking out for a friend.Alan Shore: I see. Well, given that it was Sally’s decision to end our relationship, perhaps you’d consider looking out for me.Lori Colson: You seem all right.Alan Shore: Just to clarify, if Tara did have any intention of whatever euphemism you were in search of, it would,。
BOSTON+LEGAL：ALAN经典台词精选
（一）Boston Legal S2第10集由于Alan的秘书Melissa Hughes的信用卡透支一万美圆却被信用卡公司多加了30%的利息，以至于一万美圆变成了五万美圆。
Alan 要为自己美丽的秘书免除这比债务，他对狡猾的信用卡公司总裁说了下面的话：Here's the thing about me.I am not a hoot. But I insist on putting adversary back into the system. And I do it openly and notoriously for all to hear. While a swell guy like you doesn't want the public know that of the thousands of in dustries tracked by the Better Business Bureau the credit card racket is numb er one in customer complaints. You don't want them to know that you deliber ately target those who won't be able to pay off their debts. People you call, 'R evolvers'. People who see 'zero percent interest' in big blue print and don't kn ow just one minute late payment you skyrocket their interest to thirty percent. That if they so much as inquire about leasing a car you raise their rates. You don't want the public know that while over seven million families have failed for bankruptcy in the last five years you got Congress to change the bankrupt cy code to make it next to impossible for people to discharge creadit card deb t. You don't want people to know that the creadit card industry is essentially a pack of hyenas crunching on the bones of the poor. Do you? I smell somethi ng awful.I think it's you. Yes, this case has a stenth of a big tobacoo and asbestos all over it. Luckily our firm has nine offices around the US, London ang Hongkong, strategically positioned for massive class action suits. And once the company you represent smells it too they'll find you're not nearly smart or powerful eno ugh and they'll drop you in a firm that employs expertise and intimidation rat her than down home hokum and smiley handshakes. And this is my favorite p art, when your firm fires your obsequiese ass for losing their client... Oh my God! The Stress! Your tan will fade, you'll gain a few pounds, drink a bit more, scream at the kids, and maybe your wife will finally leave you. For the realto r who sells your house because after all he'll still be able to afford Christmas in Aruba and next year's convertible. Hey, fella. Don't worry about it. It'll be a hoot.（译文：告诉你我的看法,我是个怪胎.但是我喜欢和社会规则作对,而且我喜欢大摇大摆地公开做反派.而相反,像你这样的自大狂却喜欢做偷鸡摸狗的事,以免被让人知道在商业信誉良好监督局的记录中信用卡欺诈位于顾客投诉的榜首.你不想让他们知道你们的目标是那些还不起钱的人.那些你们称为冤大头的人.他们看到利率为零就很高兴,却不知道只要他们不能及时还款,他们的利率马上攀升到30%.他们只要动了一下租车的念头你们就马上提高他们的利率.你不想让大众知道有七百万家庭在过去5年内宣布破产,而你们迫使国会修改破产法,使他们不得不继续清偿信用卡债务.你不想让人们知道信用卡产业,就像是一群穷凶极恶的土狗在啃噬穷人的骨头,对吗?我闻到一阵臭味~我想是你这传来的.是的,这个案子本身就是腐臭不堪.幸好我们事务所拥有位于美国伦敦和香港等9家办事处,这是专为进行大规模的诉讼案而设置的.因此,一旦你的公司也闻到了这股臭味,他们就会发现你既不聪明又没有能力,然后他们就会发现作为一家专门从事敲诈的公司请一个只会说废话和微笑握手的人是多余的.接下来就是我最喜欢的部分,当你的公司因为你丢掉了他们的客户而解雇你时,噢,我的天!压力出现了!你再也不能去晒太阳了,你的收入也变少了,你开始酗酒,向孩子们大喊,而也许你的妻子最后会离开你,嫁给那个卖掉你房子的房地产经纪人,因为毕竟他还可以去阿鲁巴岛过圣诞,还可以在下一年买一辆敞蓬车.嗨,伙计,别担心,我只是说说而已.）（二）Boston Legal S2第19集Alan的秘书Melissa Hughes这次拒绝纳税，Alan为其辩护，涉及到美国非常敏感的人权问题，时间长达五分多钟：Alan Shore: When the weapons of mass destruction thing turned out not to be true, I expected the American people to rise up. Ha! They didn't.Then, when the Abu Ghraib torture thing surfaced and it was revealed that our governmen t participated in rendition, a practice where we kidnap people and turn them o ver to regimes who specialize in torture, I was sure then the American people would be heard from. We stood mute.Then came the news that we jailed tho usands of so-called terrorist suspects, locked them up without the right to a trial or even the right to confront their accusers. Certainly, we would never stan d for that .But We did.And now, it's been discovered the executive branch has been conducting massive, illegal, domestic surveillance on its own citizens. Yo u and me. And I at least consoled myself that finally, finally the American peo ple will have had enough. Evidentially, we haven't.In fact, if the people of this country have spoken, the message is we're okay with it all. Torture,warrantle ss search and seizure, illegal wiretappings, prison without a fair trial or any tri al, war on false pretenses. We, as a citizenry, are apparently not offended.The re are no demonstrations on college campuses. In fact, there's no clear indicat ion that young people even seem to notice.Well, Melissa Hughes noticed. Now, you might think, instead of withholding her taxes, she could have protested t he old fashioned way. Made a placard and demonstrated at a Presidential or Vi ce-Presidential appearance, but we've lost the right to that as well. The Secret Service can now declare free speech zones to contain, control and, in effect, criminalize protest. Stop for a second and try to fathom that.At a presidential rally, parade or appearance, if you have on a supportive t-shirt, you can be th ere. If you’re wearing or carrying something in protest, you can be removed.T his! In the United States of America. This!In the United States of America. Is Melissa Hughes the only one embarrassed?He sits down abruptly in the witness chair next to the judge.Judge Robert Sanders: Mr. Shore. That's a chair for witnesses only.Alan Shore: Really long speeches make me so tired sometimes.Judge Robert Sanders: Please get out of the chair.Alan Shore: Actually, I'm sick and tired.Judge Robert Sanders: Get out of the chair!Alan Shore: And what I'm most sick and t ired of… He get’s up and out of the chair. …is how every timesomebody disagrees with how the government is running things, he or she is l abeled un-American.D.A. Jonathan Shapiro: Evidentially, it's speech time.Alan Shore: And speech in this country is free, you hack! Free for me, free fo r you. Free for MelissaHughes to stand up to her government and say, "Stick it"!D.A. Jonathan Shapiro: Objection!Alan Shore: I object to government abusing its power to squash the constituti onal freedoms of itscitizenry. And, God forbid, anybody challenge it, they're smeared as being a h eretic. Melissa Hughes isan American. Melissa Hughes is an American. Melissa Hughes is an American! Judge Robert Sanders: Mr. Shore. Unless you have anything new and fresh to say, please sit down.You've breached the decorum of my courtroom with all this hooting.Alan Shore: Last night, I went to bed with a book. Not as much fun as a 29-year-old, but the book contained a speech by Adlai Stevenson. The year was 1952.He said, "The tragedy of our day is the climate of fear in which we live and fear breeds repression.Too often, sinister threats to the Bill of Rights, to f reedom of the mind are concealed under the patriotic cloak of anti-Communis m."Today, it's the cloak of anti-terrorism. Stevenson also remarked, "It's far e asier to fight for principles than to live up to them.” I know we are all afraid. But the Bill of Rights - we have to live up to that. We simply must. That's all Melissa Hughes was trying to say. She was speaking for you. I would ask you now to go back to that room and speak for her.（译文：Alan Shore : 当大型杀伤性武器被证明不存在,我原以为美国人民会起来反对,他们没有.然后Abu-Ghraib拷问事件出现了,揭露出我们的政府参与其中.我们绑架人民,然后将他们移交给专事拷问的机构,我当时很确定美国人民会说点什么,我们保持了沉默.然后又听到我们监禁成千上万的被称为恐怖嫌疑犯的消息,把他们关押起来,都不给予他们上法庭甚至面对他们指控的权利.我们当然不会忍受这种行为,但是我们还是忍了.现在又发现执法机构在对自己的公民,你和我,进行大规模的非法国内监督,我安慰自己,终于,终于,美国人民将受够了,显然,我们还没有.事实上,如果这个国家的人说话了,他们说的事我们对这些都无所谓.拷问,无照搜查,抓捕,非法监听,无公正法庭的监押或任何不公正的审判,欺诈的战争...我们作为公民显然都没被触犯,校园里没有游行,事实上,都没有明显的迹象表明年轻人在关注这些.Melissa Hughes注意了.现在你们可能会觉得除了拒绝纳税,她可以采用传统的方法来抗议,贴张布告,或是在总统或副总统现身时示威,但是我们现在连这种权利也丧失了.秘密服务部门现在可以指定"自由谈论区",来牵制和控制,但事实上,是使抗议犯罪化.停下来一会来彻底思考这件事,在一个总统集会,阅兵,或露面的场合,如果你穿着支持他的T-shirt,你能呆在那儿,如果你穿着或拿着抗议的东西,你会被拉走. 在美利坚合众国,Melissa Hughes是唯一一个感到难堪的吗?法官Robert Sanders : Shore先生,这是证人席...Alan Shore : 有时长长的演说真让我疲惫.法官Robert Sanders : 请离开这把椅子.Alan Shore : 事实上,我累了.法官Robert Sanders : 离开这把椅子.Alan Shore : 最累人的是,每次哪个人不同意政府的做法，他或她都被标为非美国人.D.A. Jonathan Shapiro : 很明显,他在演讲.Alan Shore : 在这个国家,演讲是自由的,傻瓜! (汗...)对我来说,对你来说,对Melissa Hug hes来说, 站起来对她的政府说"留着吧",都是自由的.D.A. Jonathan Shapiro : 反对!Alan Shore : 我反对政府滥用职权,来扼杀公民的宪法自由.上帝禁止任何人挑战它,他们被诽谤为异教徒.Melissa Hughes是美国人...(三遍)法官Robert Sanders : Shore先生,你要没新的东西说的话,请坐下,你已经用这种叫嚣违反了我法庭的礼仪.Alan Shore : 昨晚,我睡前看了一本书,对我而言,不象一个29岁的人觉得那么有趣,但是包括了一篇Adlai Stevenson在1952年的演讲.他说:" 我们今天的悲剧在于我们生活在恐惧的气候中,害怕引发了镇压.常常地,邪恶对权利法案的威胁,对于思想自由的威胁,都被掩盖在反共的爱国外衣下."而今天,则是反恐的外衣.Stevenson同样声明了"为原则战斗远比遵从他们容易"我知道我们...都在害怕,但是权利法案,我们必须遵从它,我们必须这样. 这就是Melissa Hugh es试图说的,她在为你们说话.我请求你们现在回到那间屋里,为她说话.）（三）Boston Legal S2第2集ALAN为凯丽·诺兰一案做的总结陈辞：Alan Shore: Yes, your Honor.Why are we here? Certainly not because of evid ence, there isn’t .An y witnesses see my client give her husband Viagra? Anybo dy see her put Nitroglycerine into his wine? No. We’re being asked to assume that evil. Well! Why can’t we impute the same sinister mentality to the deceas ed? Because people just don’t take their own lives? We have over a million sui cides across the globe every year. A million Suicide is a much more common and therefore plausible thing than murder! So why are we here? Because Kelly Nolan had a blank expression on her face when the police arrived at the scen e? She was in shock for God’s sake.Her husband had just died right before he r eyes. Fingerprints on the wineglass? It was her house! She was having wine with her husband! Is it so inconceivable that she would touch his glass? And if she were guilty? D on’t you think she would have wiped the glass clean? Or washed it so the Nitro wouldn’t have been detected. Why are we here? Becau se her husband allegedly threatened to cut her out of his will two days before? According to Kelly, that never happened! The housekeeper says it did. But thi s is a witness who admittedly loathed my client, who admittedly concealed inf ormation from me so she could do more damage at trial. She has a bias! And the prosecution offered nobody to corroborate her. So! Why are we here? The coronary joke. Made to the boyfriend.Suspiciously coincidental. But that was s omething she said! Not did. And she said it in jest! Let’s remember. There is no suggestion that either the boyfriend or the housekeeper took this remark s eriously for a second! If they did,why did they not contact the police? There is simply no evidence that would allow you to conclude beyond all reasonable d oubt that Kelly Nolan killed her husband! So. Why are we here?But. As long as we are. What about the police? They adm ittedly didn’t investig ate any other theory,including suicide. You heard Detective Richmond, they immediately focused on Kelly, and only Kelly. Because she’s the one they wanted to get. And I don’t k now about you, but I certainly find it curious that the prosecution,instead of r eprising evidence in his closing argument, chose to focus on my client’s testimonial demeanor. What the hell is that?! He wants you to convict her of murder because she came off as cold in the witness chair. I saw cold to. But what I mainly observed was someone who was rigidly unapologetic. Well, wrongly acc used people tend to be that way. How warm would any of you be if you were falsely accused of murder, if you were made sport of by the media, if your pr ivacy was violated and naked pictures of you were posted on the Internet? Pe ople, who are unrelentingly vilified, tend to end up cold and hard. Kelly Nolan has emotionally shut down. She cannot feel. She cannot emote. And she cann ot fake vulnerability for the purpose of appealing to a jury’s sympathy. She’s i nnocent!And she’s not required to prove it.Shadenfreude. From the German words, Schaden and Freude, damage and joy. It means to take spiteful, malicious delight in the misfortune of others. We u sed to dismiss this as simply an ugly side of human nature, but it is much m uch more than that. Recently a Stanford professor actually captured Schadenfr eude on a brain scan. It’s a physiological medical phenomenon. When we see others fall it sometimes causes a chemical to be released in the dorsal striatu m of the brain which actually causes us to feel pleasure. If you watch the ne ws or read the papers,which of course you don’t because the Judge said not t o, but if you did, you would see the undeniable delicious joy of the media and the pu blic over Kelly Nolan’s plight. I have no doubt that you want Kelly Nola n to be punished.She married for money, she had an affair, she carried on na ked in the pool with her boyfriend. She’s cold,materialistic, unlikable, and it mi ght bring you all pleasure to see her go to jail. But as for evidence to establis h thatshe committed a murder beyond all reasonable doubt? It just isn’t there. The only possible route to a guilty verdict here is Schadenfreude. Thank you.（译文：ALAN：我们在这里干什么？当然不是因为证据确凿，根本就没有证据。

All Rights ReservedTranscribed by Sheri for [version updated June 19, 2006]The Annual Crane Poole & Schmidt Christmas PartyCamera pans around the reception area to a man wearing a Santa hat picking up a drink from a bar set up in front of the signage; to Alan Shore, complete with a branch of mistletoe rigged to hang over his head, dancing with Tara Wilson; to Catherine Piper dancing with an older gentleman as:Denny Crane:singing with a 3-woman back-up group behind him “Bells will be ringing, their sad, sad blues. Oh, what a Christmas to have the blues! My baby’s gone. I have no friends, to wish me greetings once again. Choirs will be singing Silent Night. Christmas carols . . .” sees someone and leaves the group to finish without himTara Wilson: So, do I get my kiss or not?Alan Shore: Tara, the way mistletoe works is the one standing under it is the one to receive.Tara Wilson: Well, I prefer to meet in the middle.Alan Shore: Well, I do enjoy your middle tremendously, but a kiss really is more traditional. They both lean a bit toward each other Ah, the anticipation is pure . . . Sally.Sally Heep: Hi. The last thing I want to do is come between all that collagen, but, Alan, we have a little problem, and, like it or not, you’re probably the best man to fix it. Ah, this is Carmen Flores. She works in housekeeping here. Her ex-husband kidnapped her two children. This is the third Christmas he’s done so. He brings them to Peru, when it’s Carmen who has legal custody of them for the holidays.Tara Wilson: Can’t you just go to the judge?Sally Heep: She did that last year. And it cost her a fortune. The judge held him in contempt for a day. He said it’s worth it to spend Christmas with his kids in Peru. H—his flight leaves tomorrow night. I—I thought maybe you could think of something.Tara Wilson: Didn’t you used to be a lawyer, Sally? Oh, I apologize. There go my lips again. Must be all that collagen.Alan Shore: Ladies?

Incredible dress, by the way. Hate you. turns to Alan Shore Ah, Alan. Mistletoe. takes his face between both hands and kisses him hard. Mwah. smiles, then whispers Whatever.[credits]CourtroomCamera pans over rather graphic pictures of 2 gunshot murder victims—alive and dead.ADA John Shubert: She came home that evening at 9:30, catching an early flight to surprise her husband. But it was the defendant who was surprised. Susan May discovered her husband Ralph making love to a business associate, Marie Holcomb—and it was more than she could bear. The evidence will show that the defendant retrieved a handgun from the kitchen, returned to the bedroom and fired six shots—three into her husband, three into Marie Holcomb. This is the holiday season. You people should be home with your families right now. I apologize for that. Marie Holcomb’s mother and father fly here every December from the West Coast. This time, it’s to attend the trial of their daughter’s killer. Susan May destroyed a lot of happy plans with that gun.Brad Chase: Get in Christmas.Lori Colson: Sorry?Brad Chase: Christmas is ours and Susan’s. Don’t let him claim it.Lori Colson: I, too, would like to apologize for taking you away from your families during this holiday season. That’s Susan’s family seated over there. They would dearly love to be home with her. She would dearly love to be home with them. Imagine, if you can as you prepare for your Christmas, having a loved one murdered.Add to that the horror that the police can’t figure out who did it. And then, if you can possibly fathom, imagine they decide to arrest you. That’s your defendant, ladies and gentlemen. A law-abiding, loving, faithful advertising executive—an innocent woman whose whole life was just suddenly and wrongly destroyed. That’s your defendant, and that’s what the evidence will show.Alan Shore’s OfficeCarmen Flores: I—I did report police twice. They say domestic.Alan Shore: He returned the children both times after Christmas?Carmen Flores: Yes. This why police say it is for court to decide. No one involved.Suddenly, Denny Crane enters.Alan Shore: Ah, Denny. This is Carmen Flores. She works here in housekeeping.Denny Crane: Excellent. Why do I care?Alan Shore: Perhaps you don’t. First off, let me say how incredible you were last night. The whole office is stil . . . stunned.Denny Crane: Thank you.Alan Shore: Now, on a topic far removed from you, and therefore much less entertaining, though of some import to Carmen, her children have been snatched by her ex-husband. Who do you know at the Boston Police Department?Denny Crane: I know everybody.Alan Shore: You hear that, Carmen? The man knows everybody.Carmen Flores smiles rather dubiously.CourtroomDetective Wayne Farley: Her story didn’t check out. It’s as simple as that.ADA John Shubert: That story she gave you was?Detective Wayne Farley: She came home, found them dead in bed.ADA John Shubert: Was there evidence of anyone other than the victims or the defendant being in the house that night?Detective Wayne Farley: None.ADA John Shubert: And, Detective, describe for the jury if you can, the defendant’s demeanor when you arrived at the scene that night.Detective Wayne Farley: She seemed pretty shook up. There was blood all over her. She claimed she got the blood on her when she went to her husband’s side to see if she could revive him.ADA John Shubert: And you don’t believe that?Lori Colson: I’m sorry. It seems the detective is more than willing to give testimony against my client. You don’t really need to lead him.Judge Phillips Stevens: Sustained.ADA John Shubert: Did you believe the defendant’s claim?Detective Wayne Farley: No. It was determined that she was standing approximately 5 feet away when she fired the gun.Lori Colson: I’m sorry. I hate to be a nuisance. But did I miss the point where you said she fired the gun? Judge Phillip Stevens: Sustained.ADA John Shubert: Detective, what, if anything led you to believe that the defendant fired the gun?Detective Wayne Farley: We did a trace metal test, which revealed she held the gun and her fingerprints were on the gun.ADA John Shubert: Hm. Anything else?Detective Wayne Farley: We know her driver dropped her off at 9:30 pm. She called the police at 11:07. She told us she discovered the bodies soon after she entered the house. If so, why did she wait an hour and a half to call the police? As I said, her story just didn’t add up.Brad Chase: Seems from your tone, Detective, you consider this, ah, kind of a no-brainer.Detective Wayne Farley: We applied all our mental faculties just the same and concluded your client committed the crime.Brad Chase: Oh, you concluded pretty quickly, I might add. You placed her under arrest the next day. By the way, was the spatter analysis done in a day?Detective Wayne Farley: No. That came in later.Brad Chase: I see. So when you placed Susan May under arrest, you were going on . . .Detective Wayne Farley: Her fingerprints were on the gun, for starters.Brad Chase: It was her gun, was it not?Detective Wayne Farley: The fingerprints were fresh.Brad Chase: Got there, perhaps, when she picked the gun up after?Detective Wayne Farley: We also had motive, her evasive demeanor.Brad Chase: She called the police, did she not?Detective Wayne Farley: Yes, but she wasn’t truthful.Brad Chase: Wasn’t truthful when she said she didn’t shoot them?Detective Wayne Farley: That, and she obviously wasn’t truthful about calling the police immediately after finding the bodies.Brad Chase: You had her examined by a psychiatrist that night?Detective Wayne Farley: Yes.Brad Chase: The psychiatrist said she was in shock?Detective Wayne Farley: Yes.Brad Chase: Possible the shock of discovering her murdered husband caused the delay in calling the police? Detective Wayne Farley: I doubt that’s what happened.Brad Chase: This doubt is based on your psychiatric training.Detective Wayne Farley: It’s based on 30 years of experience as a homicide detective.Brad Chase: Thirty years as a homicide detective told you that the delay in calling the police could not have been caused by shock? picks up a large photograph mounted on a board Let’s turn back to the blood spatter evidence. This is the blouse my client was wearing that evening, is it not?Detective Wayne Farley: Yes.Brad Chase: Lot of blood. That’s all spattering?Detective Wayne Farley: Most of that blood came from handling the bodies.Brad Chase: So where’s the spatter you spoke of, Detective?Detective Wayne Farley: There are two elongated markings on the left shoulder.Brad Chase: Right here? These tiny marks here?Detective Wayne Farley: Yes.Brad Chase: She supposedly fired six shots. There’s only two tiny marks?Detective Wayne Farley: The other marks are likely covered up with the blood from when she handled the bodies.Brad Chase: Did you analyze these marks yourself, Detective?Detective Wayne Farley: I did.Brad Chase: Are you the person in the Boston Police Department who does this?Detective Wayne Farley: Well, there are others, obviously, but I started in the lab, so I’m trained as well. Brad Chase: Was there anyone else in the lab who analyzed this shirt?Detective Wayne Farley: Yes. We have a junior member . . .Brad Chase: Junior member? It’s a high-profile case. It went to a junior member?Detective Wayne Farley: As I said, I analyzed the clothes with my 30 years . . .Brad Chase: Thirty years in the lab?Detective Wayne Farley: No.Brad Chase: How many years in the lab?Detective Wayne Farley: Five.Brad Chase: How ‘bout the junior member? How many years did he have?Detective Wayne Farley: I’m not sureBrad Chase: More than five?Detective Wayne Farley: I believe so.Brad Chase: Just out of curiosity, what was his finding?Detective Wayne Farley: Inconclusive.Brad Chase: He could not determine that my client fired a gun?Detective Wayne Farley: Nor could he rule it out.Brad Chase: He could not determine that my client fired a gun.Detective Wayne Farley: Correct. But I determined she did.Brad Chase: You trace-metalled my client. Did you test for powder residue on her hand?Detective Wayne Farley: Yes. She tested negative.Brad Chase: Gee, how could that be?Detective Wayne Farley: We determined that she likely wore gloves when she fired the gun.Brad Chase: So she was careful to wear gloves when she shot them, then afterwards, she took the gloves off and handled the gun?Detective Wayne Farley: If she went into shock, as you say, she probably made a mistake. Murderers often do.Brad Chase: So for the purpose of explaining the delay in calling the police, you don’t buy shock. but to explain why she picked up the murder weapon barehanded after firing with gloves, you do buy shock; in fact, you seem to be selling it.ADA John Shubert: Objection.Brad Chase: Withdrawn. Did you find the gloves?Detective Wayne Farley: No.Brad Chase: You searched the entire house? I’m asking. I don’t want to presume.Detective Wayne Farley: We searched the house. We did not find the gloves.Brad Chase: Any evidence of her leaving the house after she came home that night?Detective Wayne Farley: No.Brad Chase: Any unsolved burglaries in this neighborhood in the last year?Detective Wayne Farley: A couple.Courthouse Conference RoomSusan May: That went well, right?Lori Colson: Mm, hmm. It went extremely well. The problem, Susan, as we’ve explained—the burden of proof is really on us.Susan May: I still don’t understand that, as much as you keep saying it.Lori Colson: When you have the scorned wife being the only one there, her fresh fingerprints on the gun . . . Brad Chase: Trust me. We’ll argue burglar. But with no sing of a break-in . . .Susan May: So my chances are the same.Lori Colson: No. We did very well with the witness today. Our chances just got a little bit better. But if we just . . . we stick to the plan. We’d like you to meet with Dr. Waylon one more time.Susan May: Why?Lori Colson: In case we need to call him, we want to be ready.Susan May: I’m not really comfortable being treated like some patient.Brad Chase: Susan, you put your life in our hands, did you not? You need to let us do what we do.Susan May: Can I ask you something? I’m not sure why I want to ask this now, but, do you believe me?Lori Colson: I don’t know. I certainly want to believe you, but when I look at the evidence . . .Susan May: I at least appreciate your candor.Lori Colson: The question the jury’s going to be asking: if not you, then who? And we’ve got no answer for that.CourtroomDr. Lee Chang: The fatal wounds for both victims were to the head. Death was instantaneous.ADA John Shubert: And, Doctor, were you able to determine the time of death?Dr. Lee Chang: Between 9:30 and 9:45 p.m.Lori Colson: Doctor, did you examine the stomach contents of the victims?Dr. Lee Chang: YesLori Colson: What did you find?Dr. Lee Chang: They were both relatively full.Lori Colson: After eating, how long does food stay in the stomach before emptying into the small intestine? Dr. Lee Chang: Generally, one to two hours.Lori Colson: So if the victims finished dining by 7:30 as reported those stomachs should have been empty. Unless they were killed before 9:30, correct?Dr. Lee Chang: Or unless they ate again after leaving the restaurant.Lori Colson: Were there any signs, to your knowledge, that they’d eaten at home? Dirty dishes? Recent garbage?Dr. Lee Chang: To my knowledge, there was no evidence of that.Lori Colson: Thank you.ADA John Shubert: But they could have stopped on their way home from the restaurant—had dessert or something?Dr. Lee Chang: Well, not a medical question, but yes, possible.Judge Phillip Stevens: You may step down, sir. Mr. Shubert?ADA John Shubert: The prosecution rests, your Honor.Judge Phillip Stevens: Miss Colson.Lori Colson:whispering to Brad Chase Let’s let them see some serious thinking going on. What’s your take on free agency?Brad Chase: It’s killing baseball.Lori Colson: Hockey?Brad Chase: No salary cap, no hockey.Lori Colson: SoccerBrad Chase: Nobody cares.Lori Colson:arises Your Honor, the defense calls Susan May.Conference Room at Crane Poole & SchmidtOfficer Davis: It’s just that we regard it more as a domestic custody dispute. Her recourse would be with probate.Alan Shore: Well, there’s where we’re wrong, Denny. I thought if you were to physically and unlawfully grab somebody and haul them off to a foreign country, it would be a crime.Denny Crane: Well, I’ll be damned.Alan Shore: So, we’re wrong then. By the way, does one need to be related to the victim to escape charges? There’s this Junior Mint I’ve had my eye on. I thought I might borrow her for a long weekend. Perhaps the Bahamas.Officer Michaels: As we understand it, the father always brings the kids back.Alan Shore: That’s what I’d do. Be a joyride.Denny Crane: We’re wasting time here, and you two look like good men. Department’s full of good men. That’s why Denny Crane and this firm invest so much money in your annual ball. So, you’ll arrest the husband because, A—Denny Crane wants you to, and B . . .Alan Shore: I play poker with some reporters, one in particular who’d be curious as to why ethnic child snatchings don’t get your attention. And, C . . .Denny Crane: The children were kidnapped. And D . . .Alan Shore: You’re officially on notice.Officers Davis and Michaels exit.Alan Shore: You’re good when you get testy.Denny Crane: Came easy today. My balls hurt.Alan Shore: Let’s have that be the one and only time you tell me that.CourtroomSusan May: I was hurrying home because, well, I had been away for about a week and I was excited to see him.Lori Colson: And when you got home?Susan May: I pulled into the garage, went into the kitchen, called out his name. His car was there, so I was sure he was home. It was only about 9:30. I couldn’t imagine him being in bed. But . . . he was.Lori Colson: And not alone.Susan May: No.Lori Colson: What happened, Susan?Susan May: I started upstairs. I called out his name again. Still no response. Then I went to the bedroom, looked in, a—and I saw it.Lori Colson: Saw what?Susan May: At first, just blood. And then I saw one body, and then another.Lori Colson: What did you do?Susan May: I first screamed. I—I looked at my husband and . . . his eyes were open, and there was a hole in his temple. And I—I went to him to see if he was still breathing.Lori Colson: Was he?Susan May: No.Lori Colson: What happened next?Susan May: I don’t know.Lori Colson: You don’t know?Susan May:sighs I remember talking to the police at some point. I remember—I—them taking Ralph away. But . . .Lori Colson: Do you remember calling the police?Susan May: No.Lori Colson: Do you remember touching the gun?Susan May: No.Lori Colson: Seeing the gun?Susan May: No.Lori Colson nods, returns to the defense table.ADA John Shubert: That’s a really convenient memory loss, don’t you think? You recall not doing it, finding the bodies dead. But as for your fingerprints on the murder weapon, why you gave the police false information after, delaying in calling the police . . . Gee . . . just can’t remember.Lori Colson: Objection.ADA John Shubert: What a perfect way to tell your story without really being subject to cross-examination. Was this amnesia your idea, or was it your attorneys’?Lori Colson & Brad Chase:arising; in unison Objection.Judge Phillip Stevens: Sustained.ADA John Shubert: Nothing further.Judge Phillip Stevens: The witness may step down.Brad: The defense calls Dr. Herbert Waylon.ADA John Shubert: Approach?Judge Phillip Stevens motions for all attorneys to approach the bench, which they do.ADA John Shubert: This witness is not on their list.Brad Chase: He’s on the rebuttal list.ADA John Shubert: What’s he being called to rebut?Brad Chase: You just accused my client of faking her memory loss.Judge Phillip Stevens: Short leash, counsel. Step back.Lori Colson: Dr. Herbert Waylon. quietly to Brad Chase Come here. Just get up and down.Brad Chase: Sorry?Lori Colson: You don’t need to ask the $64,000 Question.Brad Chase: Because?Lori Colson: He will; and then he can’t object to it.CourtroomDr. Herbert Waylon: It’s basically a form of post-traumatic amnesia. She saw her husband murdered, and it triggered a blackout.Brad Chase: She blacked out for an hour.Dr. Herbert Waylon: In terms of memory. She wasn’t unconscious. She could’ve been sitting in a catatonic state. She possibly even watched television.Brad Chase: The prosecution thinks that her memory loss was . . . convenient.Dr. Herbert Waylon: Well, I personally examined this woman the day after the murders. She was suffering from dissociative amnesia then, as I believe she is now.Brad Chase: Thank you, Doctor. He’s your witness. walks to the defense table as ADA John Shubert arises to question the witness I hope you’re right.ADA John Shubert: You can’t state to a medical certainty that the defendant suffered from post-traumatic amnesia, can you?Dr. Herbert Waylon: To a medical certainty, no.ADA John Shubert: And you can’t medically rule out the possibility that the defendant pulled the trigger that night, can you, Doctor?Lori Colson: Bingo.Dr. Herbert Waylon: No, I cannot rule it out. In fact, while I happen to believe her version of the events, I make room for a completely different scenario.ADA John Shubert: Which is?Dr. Herbert Waylon: Well, it’s possible she looked into this bedroom, saw her husband making love to another woman, and that threw her into a dissociative state. And in that state, she shot them.ADA John Shubert: I’m sorry, are . . . you’re now saying maybe she killed them?Dr. Herbert Waylon: Well, I believe she found them dead as she says. But it’s possible that she saw them making love, went into a dissociative state—something we refer to medically as automatism—and in that state, she may have killed them. Then her brain creates a false memory of something less horrifying to her.ADA John Shubert: I have nothing further.Brad Chase: Her brain created a false memory?Dr. Herbert Waylon: Yes. Sometimes, if a person’s actions are repugnant to them, they can actually create a false version that is more psychologically acceptable.Brad Chase: And they believe this as the truth?Dr. Herbert Waylon: Absolutely.Brad Chase: So it’s possible that she committed the murders?Dr. Herbert Waylon: No. Murder suggests an intent she would’ve been incapable of. If she did this—and I’m not saying that she did—she would’ve likely lost all conscious control. She would’ve acted outside herself. And as a defense, her brain would have manufactured this other memory, that she walked in and found them already dead.ADA John Shubert: Your Honor. Chambers.Judge Phillip Stevens’ ChambersADA John Shubert: They just . . . they just backdoored insanity. That’s an affirmative defense. They did not plead it.Brad Chase: We’re not arguing it.ADA John Shubert: The witness just testified she lost all conscious control.Brad Chase: That witness was simply called to rehabilitate. You’re the one who impeached my client’s truthfulness. You said she was feigning her memory loss.ADA John Shubert: You went beyond my cross. Your Honor, this is a ploy. They’re trying to sneak in alternative defenses. A—She didn’t do it. And B—if she did do it, she was insane.Judge Phillip Stevens:pointing to Brad Chase with a pencil Did you coach the witness to get in insanity? Brad Chase: I called a witness to rehabilitate, to support her claim of memory loss.Judge Phillip Stevens: Knowing full well he believed the possibility that she committed the murders while in a dissociative state.Brad Chase: I did not elicit that testimony; he did.Lori Colson: Your Honor, if we wanted to argue insanity, we simply could have pled it.Judge Phillip Stevens: Except you don’t want to argue it, counsel. You want to argue not guilty and have insanity as a fallback. Two defenses for the price of one.Lori Colson: I’m sure you’ll properly instruct against insanity.Judge Phillip Stevens: Yes. And I’m sure the jury will listen.ADA John Shubert: I move for an immediate mistrial.Judge Phillip Stevens: Mr. Shubert, you opened the door on all this with your cross.ADA John Shubert: Which was their plan.Judge Phillip Stevens: Maybe so. But you did the damage. I’ll give you time to call your own experts, but the case goes on. Mr. Chase, Miss Colson. I keep scorecards of all the lawyers who appear before me.Alan Shore’s OfficeTara Wilson: Now you’re being desperate.Alan Shore:standing under a very large swag of mistletoe hanging from the ceiling next to the desk Too much?Tara Wilson: Just a bit. I never figured you to place quite such a premium on a kiss.Alan Shore: A kiss is the promise of what’s to come, Tara.

波士顿法律 剧本1
PrivilegeOriginal Airdate: September 29, 2002Written by David E. Kelley. Directed by Dennis Smith © Courtesy of The Practice 2000 Homepage. Transcribed by WhyDeeTranscriber's Notes - I do not own the characters in this story, nor do I own any rights to the television show 'The Practice'. They were created by David E. Kelley and belong to him and David E. Kelley Productions.Eugene's office. Eugene is at his desk staring out into space. Ellenor walks inEllenor: They're bringing her in.--CourtroomJudge: Mr. Walsh.Walsh: I have nothing your honor, other than to remind the court that the crime Miss Dole was convicted of is murder. Taking a human life is not only a crime against that life, but a crime against law, humanity, the common wealth, and we feel the statutory sentence is appropriate.Judge: Mr. Young.Eugene: Your honor, we would ask the court at this time to convert Miss Dole's conviction from first degree murder to voluntary manslaughter.Walsh: Commonwealth opposes.Eugene: You have before you the psychological examinations done by both the commonwealth and the defense, which all conclude that Miss Dole's state of mind was severely compromised at the time she committed this crime. The court can also take judicial notice of the facts. Miss Dole did not act with any aforethought, there was no premeditation, her own husband was in the lineof fire. Now while the jury was certainly free to reject the defense of legal insanity, Miss Dole's actions just as certainly fall within the scope of heated passion. A killer came to her door, threatened her, and she reacted. Your honor can and should find that Miss Dole committed her acts while under the influence of extreme mental and emotional disturbance, for which there was a reasonable excuse. This was the classic definition of manslaughter, not murder one, not murder two, but voluntary manslaughter. This verdict is contrary to the evidence, it is contrary to the law, and I would respectfully request that you adjust the verdict to the appropriate degree.Walsh: The jury heard testimony of how Miss Dole threatened to kill the victim the very day of the shooting. Those were her words. The jury heard Miss Dole's voice on the phone, evidencing a calm demeanor, no passion whatsoever, seconds before the shooting. Personally, I've never even seen manslaughter with a gun. Manslaughter is usually a fist, a vehical, a fight, sometimes a stabbing, but when a woman retrieves her purse, retrieves her handgun from the purse, shoots the man who is standing by the door, that's not manslaughter, and I will remind the court of something you already know. You are not entitled to just simply substitute your judgement for that of the jury's, you can only override the first degree conviction if you find there's no reasonable basis for it. Here, you cannot make such a finding. As such, I respectfully request that you allow the jury's verdict to stand.Judge: Miss Dole, do you have anything you would like to say?Lindsay: I would like to express my condolences to the family of Lawrence Mandle. I would also like to assure the court... the lack of remorse I seemingly demonstrated in my phone call to the police that night... was more product of my shock than the person I think and hope I am. I took a human life. I had the opportunity to retreat, I didn't do so. I accept responsibility for a homicide conviction, I committed a homicide, but given my shock and my fear and the underline trauma Iexperienced in past assaults against me, my state of mind was severely compromised, and my crime is more consistent with voluntary manslaughter. Thank you.--Commercial--DYDF room. Rebecca, Ellenor, Bobby, Eugene, and Jimmy are sitting down at a table.Rebecca: Did he say when he would rule?Bobby: No.Jimmy: It's good he took it under advisement.Bobby: But bad he wouldn't let us call witnesses. Ugh, what is with the heat?I thought you said it was getting fixed.Rebecca: It is, it should.Ellenor: What the hell is wrong with this.Rebecca: What, do I look like a plumber?Ellenor: A plumber fixes water Rebecca, tell me you didn't know that. Rebecca: You want to get off my back?Ellenor: What happens when your toilet clogs, do you call an electrician? Rebecca: My toilet never clogs Ellenor, do you have that problem? Ellenor: What is that supposed to mean?!Rebecca: Not a thing.Ellenor: Not a thing?Rebecca: Only you seem a little edgy.Bobby: Ellenor, you do seem a little on edge.Ellenor: I'm hot!Bobby: Fine, it'll all be fixed today.Lucy walks inLucy: We got a walkup. Anybody?Bobby: Jimmy.Jimmy: I took the last one.Rebecca: No, I did.Jimmy: What about you, Ellenor?Ellenor: I have Jaime Stringer at 8:00, who by the way, you called back.Jimmy: Not just me, Eugene liked her.Bobby: Just take the walkup.Jimmy: It's always me.--Jimmy gets up and goes to another room with Lucy, Melissa Halpert, and Joey HalpertLucy: Jimmy Berluti, Melissa Halpert.Jimmy: HiMelissa: Hello, this is my daughter Joey.Jimmy: Nice to meet you.Joey: Nice to meet you.Melissa: Is there a place we can speak privately?Jimmy: Of course.--In another room.Melissa: I told my daughter that this was about insurance and so forth, but... that isn't it. First I need to know that what I tell you will remain confidential.Jimmy: Absolutely.Melissa: I wanted you to meet my daughter for I guess... some perspective.16 years ago... I kidnapped her. I was into drugs, and I got this insane notion that having to take care of a child would be kind of a lifeline... I just grabbed her out of a hospital when she was a newborn, and I've been raising her ever since.Jimmy: Does your daughter know?Melissa: No, and it's imperative that she never find out, it would destroy her. I also have two small children, a family, if this ever got out many lives would be destroyed.Jimmy: So... why are you here?Melissa: Um.. I was looking at a magazine article (hands Jimmy a magazine article) about two lives that have been destroyed. The birth mother and the woman they accused of stealing Joey.Jimmy: Another woman was convicted?Melissa: No, they never pressed charges due to lack of evidence, not evidently a cloud of suspicion followed her and the irony is she went into the same drug problems that I was looking to escape.... I don't want to turn myself in. It isn't an option, but two things in this article; the birthmother, she says the horror lives on everyday of not knowing what happened,whether the daughter is dead or... she said that if she could just know that her daughter was alive somewhere, just happy, and for the woman was accused, she said if just one person could know she was innocent, even one.... I would like you to go to the birth mother and tell her how happy and safe her daughter is... and then I would like you to go to the woman that was accused and tell her you know she's innocent. I have two money orders (pulls out two envelopes) each in the amount of$70,000, if I had more, I would pay more. Can you do this for me, Mr. Berluti?(Jimmy stares)--DYDF, Ellenor is interviewing JaimeEllenor: Obviously your academic credentials are superb.Jaime: Thank you.Ellenor: But I have to say, I'm curious, with the offers you're getting... why here?Jaime: Those offers are all civil. The only thing I've ever wanted to do is criminal, and this firm is criminal. I've been court bucking your guys fortwo years. I was at the Lindsay Dole trial every day, I almost cut a final.Ellenor: Really? Any tips, we could use some pointers on that one.Jaime: Are you serious?Ellenor: Well... sure!Jaime: Well I'm sure I couldn't say anything you haven't already thought about.Ellenor: Just for fun, why don't you throw it out.Jaime: Hehe... feels like a test. Um... I thought it was a mistake to go with battered woman. It may be a viable theory technically, but jurys pretty much reject the abuse excuse, it seems desperate. I felt you cut your legs off at the top.Ellenor: What else were we supposed to argue?Jaime: Straight self defense. Wink wink. It would've amounted to jury nullification, but here's where I thought you really dropped the ball...(notices Ellenor looking pissed off)I'm sorry, I-I don't mean toEllenor: No, go ahead.Jaime: What you did was characterize Lindsay as crazy, you know, she snapped, she was outside of herself, she lost control. The problem is, juries don't like to free nutsos. Instead of depicting her as aberrant, you should've portrayed her as every woman, you know who wouldn't have pulled the trigger if a guy comes to her house!Ellenor: We sort of did that.Jaime: Not enough, you didn't. You basically argued, we can't know what it was like to be her, she was in a different place, but what I would've done is put the jury in her shoes, right in that place! the worst you get is a hung jury.(Ellenor's look makes Jaime nervous)My eyesight's always 20/20... I-I know....--Jimmy is in front of the house of Sally Burnes. He rings the doorbell. Sally answers.Sally: Hi.Jimmy: I'm looking for Sally Burnes.Sally: I'm Sally.Jimmy: My name is James Berluti.(Speaking slowly)I uh... represent the individual who kidnapped your daughter 16 years ago. I'm not at liberty to divulge this individuals name, but this person hired me to communicate to you that your daughter is safe and happy. This individual continues to parent your daughter. The individual feels great remorse for all the paincaused to you, and sends to you this money order in the amount of $70,000. The individual wants you to know that he or she is very sorry for hurting you.(Jimmy hands Sally the envelope and walks away, Sally just stands there, shocked.)--commercial--DYDF room. Ellenor, Eugene, Jimmy, and Rebecca are in.Eugene: What didn't you like about her?Ellenor: I don't know. I just didn't.Eugene: Did you see the transcript?Ellenor: Yeah, her grades were great, that's why we interviewed her, but the purpose of the interview is to see if we liked her, and I didn't.Eugene: Rebecca, I want you to interview her.Ellenor: Why? Hiring is supposed to be unanimous, if I didn't like her-Eugene: We're also supposed to have a group discussion, Rebecca is part of the group, she needs to interview her.Jimmy: I thought she was great.Ellenor: Yes, all the men think she's swell.Eugene: Why are you so testy?Helen walks inHelen: Hey.Eugene: What's wrong?Helen: What, I can't just pop in to say hi?Eugene: What's wrong?Helen: Jimmy, police got a call from a woman named Sally Burnes last night.--Helen and Jimmy another office roomHelen: You had to know she'd go to the police.Jimmy: So what? It's attorney-client.Helen: Not necessarily, the crime is ongoing.Jimmy: What crime?Helen: The kidnapping, the individual still has her, the crime is ongoing Jimmy, which means you can reveal.Jimmy: Helen, I'm not going to tell. You know I'm not going to tell. Helen hands him some papers.Jimmy: What?Helen: I'm going to get a judge to force you to tell.Jimmy: No judge is ever-Helen: I think you're wrong. We already know who she is. Bernice White, 56 years old, works as a waitress at the KingStreet cafe, we'll get her one way or another. If she comes forward and cooperates, I'll give her three years. You have 24 hours.Helen leaves--Office room with Jimmy, Eugene, and MelissaMelissa: You can't tell, you gave me your word!Jimmy: Melissa.Melissa: I didn't even want you to tell him!Jimmy: He's a lawyer here, the privilege extends to lawyers.Melissa: And now you're breaking the privilege!Eugene: Nobody's revealing your secret.Melissa: What are you telling me?Eugene: The DA is trying to force us to reveal your identity, if she is successful-Melissa: Oh my God.. oh my God!Eugene: Melissa, you need to calm down here.Melissa: I just wanted to help those people, I did not want to risk jail!Eugene: I can leave the room and come back later, or you can calm down and listen to me now. We are not going to give up, you need to be aware... Melissa, I need your full attention now. You asked Mr. Berluti to contact the woman accused of the kidnapping.Jimmy: Which I've been trying to do, but I haven't got her yet.Eugene: It is our opinion that we should no longer try to contact her, and here's why. They still think she's it. If we contact her, we'd affectively be telling the police, it's not her, could be anybody. For your protection,it's best that she remains a suspect. I know you wanted to help, but there's too much risk involved.Melissa: Okay.Eugene: I also wanted to open up a bogus file for you, on the chance that the police are watching this building to see who goes in and out, and the chances are good they are. I want a file explaining your presence here, we can create something under a state plan.Melissa: I have small children, I cannot go to jail!Eugene: Melissa, we are not going to let that happen.--Lucy in DYDF office. Jaime walks in.Jaime: Hi.Lucy: Hi, Rebecca will be right with you.Jaime: Thanks! I can't believe I even got called back.Lucy: What happened?Jaime: Well, my mouth tends to disclose what I think sometimes, and, well I may have offended Miss Frutt.Lucy: Ah, don't worry about it. I offended them when I walked in the door and I didn't think I'd last a week. That was four years ago.Rebecca walks inRebecca: Hi, Jaime?Jaime: Yes.Rebecca: Rebecca Washington.Jaime: Very nice to meet you.Rebecca: You too, we can go in here.Ellenor walks by.Jaime: Miss Frutt, hello!Ellenor: (coldly) Hi.Jimmy walks byLucy: Oh Jimmy, this is Bernice White, she says that you've been calling her.Jimmy: (shocked) Yes... yes.. James Berluti, thanks for coming.Bernice: What's this about, did I inherit something?Jimmy: Actually, we thought you did, but it was another Bernice White. I'm very sorry.Bernice: What'd she get?Jimmy: I'm sorry?Bernice: This other Bernice white, what'd she inherit?Jimmy: Oh nothing, just a few hundred dollars.Bernice: You made it sound like a lot more than a few hundred dollars.Jimmy: Again, I'm sorry.--Ellenor sitting down with her head in her hand in a room. Bobby walks in.Bobby: What's wrong?Ellenor: Nothing. What's wrong with you?Bobby: (sits) Nothing.Ellenor: So here we are. Two people with nothing wrong. (pause) Did I blow it?Bobby: Blow what?Ellenor: Lindsay's trial.Bobby: Ellenor...Ellenor: That stuff with you never should've come in.Bobby: You objected.Ellenor: I objected once, for the record I should've shut it down!Bobby: LookEllenor: Abuse defenses statistically are losers.Bobby: We had to have something.Ellenor: Battered woman syndrome is desperate, even a third year law student knows that.Bobby: This was a team defense.Ellenor: But I tried it! I was the one up there. Come on! A serial killer with a restraining order, how could I not win? Wehave all won with much, much less!Bobby: Where is this coming from?Ellenor: That little slut Rebecca is interviewing... she picked me to pieces... and she was right. We focused the jury on Lindsay being crazy when we should've argued how reasonable she was... how could I have not seen it?Bobby: None of us saw it.Ellenor: Why? How could we all-Bobby: I think Lindsay was desperate to believe she snapped, she was desperate to believe she was crazy, Ellenor... so we became desperate to help her believe it. You didn't pull the trigger, Ellenor.Ellenor: It's good talking to you Bobby. You remember, years ago, we used to come here at the end of the day, and... we'd just talk.Bobby: What happened?Ellenor: I don't know. You have become a bit of an island, Bobby. You don't turn to others, even in times you need it.Bobby: I try to be there. For her. For all of you.Ellenor: That's not it Bobby. You're there when we need you, but sometimes we get desperate from time to time... for you to need us.--Commercial--Sally and Helen in Helen's office.Helen: It's a very tough thing we're asking for, attorney-client privilege-Sally: He knows where she is, she's alive Miss Gamble, and he knows-Helen: Sally, you have to understand. Legal Ethics and morality are two different things, sometimes they fly into absolute face of each other.Bobby walks inBobby: Helen... I'm sorry, can I talk to you for a second?Helen: I'm kind of in the middle of something.Bobby: Please.Helen: (to Sally) Could you give me a minute?Sally leaves.Bobby: Look, I'm not going to try to fight you on the merits of what you're trying to do here.Helen: GoodBobby: But I'm asking to hold off. If it gets out our firm is helping a kidnapper... Helen, you know the fallout. It might not necessarily affect Lindsay's disposition, but we do not need Judge West getting angry at us about something else.Helen: I doubt this will have any bearing on Lindsay's fate.Bobby: But the possibility it could. Please.Helen: When's he supposed to rule?Bobby: 11:00.Helen: I'll push my motion to this afternoon.Bobby: Thank you... thank you.--Ellenor, Eugene, Rebecca, Jimmy in DYDF office.Eugene: Bobby liked her, as do I, and Rebecca and Jimmy. What exactly bothered you about her?Ellenor: I don't know. She seemed perky, suck-uppy, arrogant.Rebecca: Perky, suck-uppy, arrogant.Ellenor: Maybe it's that Harvard thing.Rebecca: Look, given our current state of things, the Harvard grads aren't exactly flooding us with their resumesEllenor: You didn't find her a little slutty?Rebecca: Slutty?!Ellenor: Yeah, she's got that giggly flirty thing.Rebecca: So now she's a perky, suck-uppy, arrogant slut?Ellenor: Look, I'm sure she's a great person, she's obviously very smart, I just didn't get a great hit, that's all.Eugene: Well, seeing as the rest of us did, and we need to hire... I vote we extend an offer.Rebecca: Me too.Jimmy: Me too.Ellenor: (pause) Okay.Lucy walks inLucy: Quarter to 11:00.--Courtroom for Lindsay's sentence. In the back shows Lucy, Rebecca, Jimmy, and Helen.Judge: First let me state for the record my disfavor for the legal games we play. For the defendant to argue diminished capacity, then to lose, then to march into sentencing claiming it was manslaughter, it strikes me as a disingenuous attempt to have two bites at the legal apple. That having been said, I am required to consider this second bite. And as I view the evidence, this case was a finding of voluntary manslaughter more than murder one. Had I been sitting on the jury, I most certainly would've voted that way. But I am not a juror in this case. I'm the judge. And as the prosecution correctly points out, a judge can only overturn a verdict if he find no reasonable basis for it. I can't make that leap. I therefore uphold the verdict. Miss Dole, you have been convicted of murder in the first degree. I am bound by the statue to send you to the framing ham correction facility for the remainder of your natural life. (chatter goes around) We are adjourned.Eugene: We have strong issues, Lindsay, we have strong grounds. We go before the state supreme next week. We are goingto get you out. Everyone looks unhappy.--Rebecca, Ellenor, Jimmy, Eugene, and Lucy in DYDF room at their desks. Phone rings, Lucy picks it and hangs it up. Bobby walks in.Bobby: She's holding out. She's going to be transferred tomorrow night, I'm going to be with her until then. Ellenor and I were talking last night... and she thought it would be a good idea for me to lean on all of you a little more... personally. I think I'll probably be doing that.(leaves in another room)Eugene: Jimmy, we better go.--Bobby in another room, Rebecca walks in.Rebecca: We will survive this. You'll survive this, and Lindsay will survive this.Bobby: I know.Rebecca: Bobby, I know you know. Factuals and legals aside, the emotional undercurrance of a case play a part, the jurors, the judge, even supreme court justices, you know that better than anybody, right? Bobby look at me.(Bobby looks at her)Give me this appeal. I'll bring your wife home. (They hold hands)--Helen and Jimmy in a courtroomHelen: The identity of the client has never been privileged, your honor.Jimmy: It has, when the discloser of the identity would incriminate the person criminally.Judge: Hold on a second, Mr. Berluti, assuming your client enjours privilege, so what? We've got a crime here, a person hasbeen kidnapped, she could be in severe physical danger.Jimmy: She's not in danger.Judge: Says who, the kidnapper?Jimmy: I've seen her, she's healthy-Judge: Careful, council, you're about to make yourself a witness.Helen: Your honor, as you correctly imply, this is an ongoing crime. Mr. Berluti has knowledge as to who has the victim.Jimmy: This is a past crime, it happened 16 years ago.Helen: It happens every day, the girl is still being held.Jimmy: She's not being held, she doesn't even know she's kidnapped. My client has been her parent-Helen: Oh come on! If a kidnapper went to a lawyer for the purpose of eluding capture, there is no doubt we would consider that an on-going crime.Jimmy: That's not what's going on.Helen: Are you sure? She says she wants to help the victim, maybe she's clever. Maybe she's using you to check the status of the investigation.Jimmy: She's not doing that.Helen: You say so, we don't know. The point is, it shouldn't matter. Sally Burnes' daughter is still out there, in the hands of the person who took her. That's present tense, you're honor. This is an on-going case, attorney-client privilege-Jimmy: Even if she's right, that would give me the choice to break privilege, it would not incure an obligation on my part to do so.Helen: If a person is in danger-Jimmy: I have no knowledge or belief that any bodily harm would ensure. I don't have to break privilege, and I won't. And I submit to this court, in closed cases, and this would be one, the doubt has to be resolved in favor of the client. If not, what are we left with? We can't have clients thinking privilege is vulnerable. Murderers get that privilege. Rapists, hijackers, they all get that privileged. Kidnappers do too.Helen: Your honor, I prefer to focus on the rights of the kidnapped victim here, who is still suffering-Jimmy: She's not suffering.Helen gives Jimmy a dirty look.Judge: Alright. Miss Gamble, from a moral stand point, I'm with you. Miss Burnes, speaking as a mother, I can certainly feel for you. But as a judge, I have to side with Mr. Berluti. Attorney-client privilege is sacrosanct and is paramot to our system of justice. The commonwealth's petition is denied. We're adjourned.Sally: How can you do this?Eugene: Ma'am.Sally: She has my daughter, how can you do this?Eugene: Miss Burnes.Sally: You have no conscience!Helen: Okay, Sally.Sally: I want my daughter back!Helen: Sally.Sally: I want my daughter!Jimmy looks uncertain.--Jaime and Sally in an empty hallwayJaime: I would've thought they'd be open by 9:00.(Sally says nothing)Are you a client?Sally: No. Are you?Jaime: Oh no, I'm a lawyer. Actually, hoping to get a job here. They keep bringing me in for all these callbacks, I'm about to pull my hair out!Sally: Is this considered a good place to work?Jaime: Oh excellent, it's one of the top three criminal practices in the state.Sally: This is the place to come if you're a criminal, huh?Jaime: ...well that's one way of looking at it I guess.Jimmy walks in, Sally walks to himSally: I'm a pretty good judge of character, Mr. Berluti, and you strike me as a decent man.Jimmy: I can't have this conversation.Sally: Do you believe in God, Mr, Berluti?Jimmy: I represent a person with interests contrarily to yours. It would be unethical for me to have any conversation with you.Sally: Can you tell me... what my daughter looks like?Jimmy: No.Sally: (about to cry) Can you tell me... if she's a good person?Jimmy: I don't really know her, but she struck me as an excellent person. Sally leaves, Jimmyand Jaime look disturbed.--Bobby and Lindsay in Lindsay's cellLindsay: Rebecca?Bobby: Eugene and I talked about it, we both agree. She probably exempts the most moral, integrity, I think passion too. Our grounds are good, but we're not going to get it unless the justices for some reason want us to, so I think Rebecca's passion is our best strength.Lindsay: Okay.Bobby: Listen I thought about... bringing Bobby here to say goodbye, but I didn't want him to see you all shackled ....Lindsay: Yeah. When?Bobby: Two. After his nap.Lindsay: Okay. (Panicking) I'm never going to get out am I Bobby?Bobby: Of course you will.--Eugene, Jimmy, Rebecca, Ellenor, Lucy, and Jaime are in DYDF officeJaime: I got the job?!Rebecca: Congratulations.Jaime: Oh, I don't believe it! (to Ellenor) I was so sure I offended you. Ellenor: Me? Get out of town.Jaime: When should I start?Eugene: When can you start?Jaime: Hello, how about yesterday, does yesterday work for you? (laughs) Lucy: I think she's excited.Jaime: Oh God, I need to call my parents!Jaime walks off, Burnice walks inBurnice: What's going on?Jimmy: Miss. WhiteBurnice: No, never mind that.Jimmy: What's wrong?Burnice: What's wrong? First you call me saying it's really important that we meet, and then I see you on television concerning the crime I've been suspected of for 16 years, so I'm asking you again Mr. Berluti, what the hell is going on?Helen, Mike, and two policemen walk in...Mike: Miss. White, place your hands behind your back.Bernice: What?Mike: You're under arrest for kidnapping.Jimmy: Hold on a second.Eugene: Jimmy.Jimmy: I just want to know what's going onHelen: We're arresting your client,Jimmy:Bernice: No I'm not his client! (to Jimmy) Tell them I'm not your client!Jimmy: She-Eugene: We neither confirm nor deny she is our client.Bernice: What?! Tell them!Eugene: We neither confirm nor deny she is our client.Helen: Take her.Bernice: No, I didn't do anything! I didn't do anything, these people called me! Tell them!!Helen, Mike, policemen, and Bernice leave.Jimmy: EugeneEugene: My office.--Jimmy and Eugene in Eugene's officeEugene: By denying she's our client we betray Melissa Halpert.Jimmy: Eugene, they basically arrested that woman for entering our office. I'm the one who called her down here-Eugene: That is an unfortunate result, but we can't change it. We consider to honor the privilege. We say nothing.Jimmy: That woman will be on the news tonight, pegged for the crime again!Eugene: Jimmy, she's not our client!。

Boston LegalQuestionable CharactersSeason 1, Episode 7Written by Lukas Reiter© 2004 David E. Kelley ProductionsBroadcast: November 21, 2004Transcribed by olucyMiddle of the night, outside a convenience store. An unidentified man puts a ski mask over his head, takes out a revolver, and enters the store.Michael Shea: Give me the money!George Keene: Agh!Michael Shea: C’mon, c’mon, hurry up. You do what I say, you’re not gonna get hurt.George Keene: Okay, okay, okay. The clerk is starting to gather money.Michael Shea: Go. Come on, come on. Let’s go.While the masked man is looking towards the door to see if anyone is coming, the clerk takes a gun out of the drawer, aims and shoots the robber, who falls backward, knocking over merchandise. He awkwardly gets up and stumbles out the door.Outside the Aloha Inn, the sign and neon hula girl are blinking orange, pink and green.Inside, clothes are strewn across the floor. Tara Wilson wakes up next to Alan Shore, leans over him to look at a watch on the nightstand. Alan wakes up.Tara Wilson: Oh. I should go.Alan Shore: Why?Tara Wilson: Because it’s 5 a.m. I really should go.Alan Shore: Early meeting?Tara Wilson: I need—Alan leans up and begins kissing her. I need to go home. I need to change my clothes. Alan starts to roll over, and she with him. I need to check my mail. I need to feed my cat. Alan has pulled the sheet over his head, is completely hidden and is nuzzling the rest of her body while she laughs. I’m going to be so late for work.Alan Shore: (under the sheet, muffled) I’ll write you a note.Later that morning. Tara hurriedly gets on the elevator, puts on some makeup and checks herself in her compact mirror, trying to gather her composure. She approaches thereception desk, where Lori Colson is checking messages.Tara Wilson: Morning.Lori Colson: You’re late.Tara Wilson: Missed morning roll call, did I?Lori Colson: You had the Sapchek deposition at 9:00.Tara Wilson: Oh, God, Lori forgive me. I—Lori Colson: I called you three or four times? Where were you?Tara Wilson: In the shower.Lori Colson: New shampoo?Tara Wilson: Excuse me?Lori Colson: Your hair smells a little different. I’m always on the lookout for a new conditioner, so I’m a bit of a serial hair sniffer.Tara Wilson: I—I use, um, several different shampoos. I’m not sure which one I used today.Anything else?Lori Colson: No. I like this jacket. I liked it more yesterday.Alan approaches the reception desk.Alan Shore: Morning. Tara, looking even lovelier than ever. Lori looking…at your watch.Tara smirks and leaves. Lori’s cell phone rings and she answers.Lori Colson: This is Lori Colson.Michael Shea: Lori, hey. It’s me. It’s Michael Shea.Lori Colson: Michael, what’s wrong? Where are you?Michael Shea: Um, listen. Groans as he’s lifted onto a gurney. I’m at Boston General, I’m in the emergency room, all right? I got—somebody shot me.Lori Colson: What?Michael Shea: Listen, I’m gonna explain to you when you get here. But could you just please hurry? There’s cops all over the place. I think one of the doctors must’ve called them. But they’re asking me all sorts of questions. Could you just hurry?Lori Colson: Okay. Don’t say anything. I’m on my way. I’ll be right there.Credits.Inside the hospital emergency room, filled with medical personnel and some police officers, one of whom stops Lori Colson as she enters.Police Officer: Help you?Lori Colson: I need to see Michael Shea.Police Officer: You family?Lori Colson: I’m his attorney. I understand you’ve been questioning my client.Police Officer: Take it up with the A.D.A.ADA Mark Wills: Lori Colson. So it is true. You switched to the dark side.Lori Colson: Mark, where’s Michael Shea?ADA Mark Wills: Mr. Shea is indisposed at the moment. Genius got himself shot in the chest. Lori Colson: He called me less than 10 minutes ago. He asked for counsel.ADA Mark Wills: He didn’t ask me.Lori Colson: Are you charging him?ADA Mark Wills: Not yet. We’re still investigating.Lori Colson: Investigating what?ADA Mark Wills: I don’t need to tell you that.Lori Colson: If he’s not arrested, I can see him. I don’t need to tell you that.ADA Mark Wills: Your client’s on his way to surgery right now. You’re welcome to see him as soon as he’s out.Lori Colson: (loudly) Michael? Michael Shea? Can you hear me?Michael Shea: Lori? That’s my lawyer right there. Hey, could you let her in please?Lori Colson: You heard him, Mark. These people are witnesses.Michael Shea: Lori.Lori Colson: (to doctor) Can you give us a minute?Doctor Randall: Yeah.Lori Colson: Michael, what is going on?Michael Shea: I didn’t do anything.Lori Colson: You got shot, Michael. The police are here.Michael Shea: Lori, I was walking home. A guy comes out of nowhere. I just—I didn’t want to give up my money. He shot me.Lori Colson: Michael, the police think that you’re a suspect, not a victim. If you did something—look at me! I need you to tell me the truth.Michael Shea: Lori, I didn’t do anything, okay? I swear.Inside Judge Clark Brown’s courtroom.Clerk: Docket ending 477—People versus Walter Mack.Alan Shore: Your Honor, while this case is marked for trial, in fact, the defendant would like to accept a plea.Judge Clark Brown: Is that so?ADA Allison Hayes: The people have offered reckless endangerment. In exchange, we’d recommend probation.Judge Clark Brown: That’s a reduced charge. You’re aware of that?ADA Allison Hayes: Yes, Your Honor.Judge Clark Brown: Up here. Both of you. Alan and ADA Hayes approach the bench.(to ADA Hayes) I don’t like this. Your office gets behind, so you just let criminals walk?Alan Shore: It’s reassuring to see that you haven’t formed any conclusions about my client’s guilt or innocence.Judge Clark Brown: You know what my mother always says? If it smells funny, I’m not eating it. Alan Shore: Exact opposite of my motto.Judge Clark Brown: This deal smells funny.ADA Allison Hayes: If I may, Your Honor, the object here is to enhance the quality of life for the tenants in Mr. Mack’s building. And he is prepared to make considerable—Judge Clark Brown: No. The object here is to send a message to every landlord in Boston. Treat people like animals, we will cage you like one.Alan Shore: I don’t mean to pry, Your Honor, but is everything okay at home?Judge Clark Brown: Step back. Both of you.Alan and ADA Hayes return to their tables.Judge Clark Brown: Mr. Mack, I will accept your plea under one condition. You are to build a sign to be worn around your neck. Said sign to read “I am a slumlord.” Because sir, that’s what you are.Walter Mack: Judge, you don’t know what I’m up against. The elevator in the Green Street building – some kids blew up the electrical system just for fun. I paint over their graffiti, it’s back that day. I’m doing the best I can. Truly I am.Judge Clark Brown: You are to stand in front of your Green Street property wearing said sign for no less than four continuous hours.Alan Shore: Your Honor, I cannot allow my client to be subjected to an extra-judicial penalty whose only purpose is to humiliate.Judge Clark Brown: Get used to it, Mr. Shore. This is nothing new. From the top of my head, I can remember the case of a woman who didn’t strap her daughter into a car seat. The judge made her write a mock obituary for the child. A drunk driving defendant was forced to put a warning sign on his car. A woman was ordered to place an ad in the paper admitting that she had bought drugs. Tell me, when did it become wrong to feel scorn for a criminal?Alan Shore: This sentence goes beyond scorn, Your Honor. And I have known my client for years. He is not a criminal.Judge Clark Brown: I’m not at all interested in your opinion, Mr. Shore. You don’t want the deal, go to trial. But if you lose, your defendant will go to prison, and deservedly so. Talk it over. You have 60 seconds.Alan Shore: It’s your call, Walter.Walter Mack: I’ll do it. In four hours, this will all be over.Same day, inside the hospital emergency room, Lori is talking to ADA Mark Wills in front of three police officers.Lori Colson: He says he got jumped on the way home.ADA Mark Wills: You believe him?Lori Colson: I have no reason not to.ADA Mark Wills: Look, we had a robbery a few blocks away. A guy wearing a ski mask. Owner gets a shot off, hits the guy in the chest. Eleven minutes later, your guy shows up here.Lori Colson: So did two other gunshot victims within the same 20-minute timeframe. Both young males. I asked. Michael Shea doesn’t do stick-ups.ADA Mark Wills: You don’t know that. We ran his raps—prior assault, gun possession.Lori Colson: Can I talk to you for a minute?ADA Mark Wills: Yeah. Lori motions him away from the officers to talk in private.Lori Colson: Okay look, I know this guy. We flipped him on that receiving case.ADA Mark Wills: He was your informant?Lori Colson: Yes. For over a year. He was a big help to us, Mark. I don’t think he would do this. ADA Mark Wills: Well, we’re gonna know soon enough.Lori Colson: Meaning what?ADA Mark Wills: Hospital’s under court order. When that bullet comes out, it goes to our lab. If the slug matches the store owner’s gun, he’s guilty.Same day, Alan Shores walks into the offices of CP&S and is met by Denny Crane, who starts walking with him.Denny Crane: You look upset. I can tell these things. I’m a people person.Alan Shore: Ever appear before a raving loon named Clark Brown?Denny Crane: Oh, many a time. Raving loon. 70 years old, still lives with his mother. What did he do to tick you off?Alan Shore: Humiliated a client for reasons of pure bile and sport.Denny Crane: Said there was a precedent for it. Cited a bunch of cases where the judges shamed the defendant.Alan Shore: Right. How’d you know?Denny Crane: Because the judge in all those cases –Alan Shore: Judge Brown.Denny Crane: Raving loon.Same day, inside the emergency room, where Lori Colson is talking to her patient at his bedside.Michael Shea: They want the bullet?Lori Colson: Mm-hmm. That’s why they’re here—so they can match it against the store owner’s gun.Michael Shea: I don’t feel so good.Lori Colson: Will it match, Michael? What exactly am I dealing with here? They are suddenly joined by a doctor with an x-ray.Dr. Randall: You’re a lucky man, Mr. Shea. If that shot were six inches lower, I’d be talking to a corpse.Michael Shea: So I’m not dying?Dr. Randall: No, you’re stable. Once we remove the bullet, you’ll be fine.Michael Shea: What if you don’t?Dr. Randall: Don’t what?Michael Shea: If you don’t remove it? You just said I’m stable, right?Dr. Randall: Well, for now. But that bullet could puncture your heart wall, Mr. Shea.Michael Shea: Okay, well, I think I’ll risk it.Dr. Randall: What do you mean, you’ll risk it?Lori Colson: Uh, I need a moment with my client.Dr. Randall: We have to get him up to surgery.Lori Colson: One quick moment. Thank you. The doctor leaves.Michael Shea: Okay, I’m sorry. I screwed up. It’s big.Lori Colson: Michael—Michael Shea: Lori, you know my record. I’m on probation. They get me for this, I’m gonna go back. It’s gonna be 30 years.The doctor rejoins them.Dr. Randall: We’re out of time. This removal isn’t optional.Lori Colson: For us it is. Step back, please. My client doesn’t consent to this procedure. And if you ignore his wishes, I’m afraid the consequences could be significant for this hospital, and you personally.Dr. Randall: You can’t be serious.Lori Colson: Try me. You can patch him up. But that bullet stays where it is.Same day, Lori is talking to Paul, who is seated at his desk in his office.Lori Colson: I mean, it’s a balancing test, right? Legitimate state interest in recovering probative felony case evidence versus the right to refuse invasive and potentially deadly surgery. I can argue it. Maybe even win.Paul Lewiston: But?Lori Colson: But am I suppose to use all of my legal skills so Michael Shea can leave a bullet in his body and die from it?Paul Lewiston: Now, the doctor didn’t say he would necessarily die, right?Lori Colson: He said the bullet could puncture the heart wall. What are you saying? That it’s all right to walk around with a nine-millimeter slug in your chest?Paul Lewiston: Well, as you know, my policy is to always remove bullets immediately after I’m shot. Lori, is your client competent?Lori Colson: I suppose.Paul Lewiston: Is he being clear in communicating his wishes to you?Lori Colson: Yes.Paul Lewiston: Have you vigorously presented alternative courses to him?Lori Colson: Paul, I’ve done all of those things. Legally, I’m covered. Am I doing the right thing? Paul Lewiston: You’re doing what your client wants within the bounds of the law. End of inquiry. Tara Wilson is descending the stairs at CP&S and Lori meets her.Lori Colson: Oh, Tara. There you are. Listen, I need some help.Tara Wilson: I just emailed you. I went through the transcript and found at least seven places where Sapchek had misrepresented himself.Lori Colson: Uh, no. New case. My client has a bullet in his chest and doesn’t want it out. The D.A. will be arguing as to reasonable search. We need to show otherwise.Tara Wilson: There’s a bullet in his chest, and he doesn’t want it out.Lori Colson: It ties him to a crime and 30 years of prison. As soon as you can.Same day, in a run-down part of town, Walter Mack is talking to a court officer in front of his Green Street property.Court Officer: Again, Mr. Mack, I’m here as a court officer to verify your compliance. As you know, it is Judge Brown’s order that you are to walk a distance of 50 feet, turn, retrace your steps, and turn again, and so forth for four hours. Do you understand?Walter Mack: I understand.The court officer takes a large “sandwich board” and slips it over Walter Mack’s head. The whiteboard says “I am a slum lord” in huge magenta letters. Bystanders are laughing and taunting him. “Go on, then.” “Well. Well. Well.”Tenant #1: No! Oh, ain’t that cute.Tenant #2: Yeah. (looking at Mack’s sign) Tell us something we don’t know.Tenant #3: Take a look at this.Tenant #4: Hey, you know who that is? That’s Walter Mack. Lookin’ good Walt! Nice sign! He’s sportin’ it, bro. They’re both laughing.Tenant #3: Hey, put a little sumpthin-sumpthin into it. C’mon. Smile, Walter!Heckling and jeering continues as a couple people chant “march, march, march.”Tenant #1: Ooh! That evil look!Tenant #2: Pink is your color. Sidney Poitier wannabe.Same day, inside Judge Christine Wilcox’s courtroom. Lori is sitting at a table with Tara, across from ADA Mark Wills.ADA Mark Wills: We need the bullet, Your Honor. We can’t prove our case without it. We’re entitled to retrieve it.Lori Colson: Retrieve it? Nice euphemism. Judge, they want to take a knife and slice open my client. This is a patently unreasonable searchADA Mark Wills: It is not unreasonable. Read the cases. The court has to apply a balancing test.Judge Christine Wilcox: What exactly am I balancing, Mr. Wills?ADA Mark Wills: The risk and intrusion to the defendant against society’s interest in solving this crime.Lori Colson: The risks, Your Honor, are significant. We’re talking about cutting the skin, extensive probing, retracting the tissue—ADA Mark Wills: Oh, come on. You have the doctor’s statement. In his words, this is a simple procedure.Judge Christine Wilcox: You must admit, Miss Colson, the law doesn’t protect defendants from all intrusions. The state can, for example, take blood from a drunk driving suspect.Lori Colson: Taking blood is a minor intrusion. This is a surgery under general anesthesia where there are tangible, foreseeable risks. Cardiac arrest, hypocapnea, hypotension—ADA Mark Wills: Yeah, all of which are hypo thetical at best. Look at the statistics. He’s not in danger.Lori Colson: Your Honor, this is over the line. They want to drug my client until he is unconscious. Then they want to cut him open.ADA Mark Wills: It’s a small incision. Recovery is minimal.Lori Colson: If we can force people onto an operating table so the State can troll for evidence, the Fourth Amendment means nothing.Judge Christine Wilcox: Sit. Sit. Mr. Wills, other than this bullet, do you have anything at all to connect Mr. Shea to this crime?ADA Mark Wills: Uh, no, Your Honor. But this entire line of arg—Judge Christine Wilcox: Well, I suppose I could find probable cause based solely on the nature and timing of Mr. Shea’s wound, but that wouldn’t be enough.ADA Mark Wills: If I could just be heard—Judge Christine Wilcox: You were heard. The depth and location of the wound, the use of general anesthesia, the potential of nerve damage, cardiac arrest, however small, the risks are real. I find that kind of intrusion unreasonable.Same day, inside a jailhouse, Alan is being let into a jail cell by a security guard.Alan Shore: What’s wrong? What happened?Denny Crane: There’s nothing wrong.Alan Shore: Denny, you’re sitting in a jail cell. Something has happened and something is wrong.Denny looks away from Alan, and thrusts out his arm, holding a piece of paper, which Alan takes and reads.Alan Shore: “I have been arrested for solicitation.” Denny looks humiliated.Later that day, outside of Mr. Mack’s Green Street property, where he is still pacing with the sandwich board. People are still shouting and jeering.Tenant #1: You know we got no hot water, Walter.Tenant #2: My mother’s 83 years old. For a solid week she had to walk six flights to go outside! Walter is now surrounded and penned in by the crowd that has gathered to jeer at him. Walter Mack: (to court officer) What do I do?Court Officer: Okay. Okay, folks. Why don’t we all just take a step back and give the man some room?Walter Mack(on his cell phone): Alan, it’s Walter Mack.Tenant #2: Oh, he’s calling somebody!Walter Mack: You’ve gotta help me out. It’s not safe out here. He looks up to see a couple of guys on the fire escape above him. There are a couple of guys that look like gang members who said they were gonna—One of the guys on the fire escape throws a glass bottle, hitting Walter on the head. Glass breaks and Walter falls to the ground. The crowd continues to jeer. “Nice shot.” The court officer bends over to check on Walter. He’s on his cell phone.Court Officer: I need an ambulance. 142 Green. Send the police now.Same day, inside Denny’s jail cell.Alan Shore: Denny, I have an emergency of my own now. A client has been attacked. I need to get going, so you have to tell me what has happened and you need to do so quickly. Denny, please.Denny Crane: There are two things I hoped to experience in my lifetime that I was sure I never would. The first was the Red Sox winning the World Series. Then when that happened, I thought “By God, I should experience the other.”Alan Shore: The other being a hooker?Denny Crane: No. I didn’t know she was a prostitute. The other was sex with a one-legged woman.Alan Shore: I beg your pardon?Denny Crane: My father, God rest his soul, told me the best sex he ever had was with one-legged women. Something about positional play. I don’t know. I’ve always wondered. So there I was driving down the street, and I saw her. A woman with long, flowing hair…an incredible, magnificent limp. So I pulled the car over. I said, “Excuse me, madam. Do you have a wooden leg?” And she said, “Why? Do you have one at the moment?” I smiled and I said, “As a matter of fact—“ And she said, “I’m expensive.” So I told her I’d buy her a trip to Belize, first class. She pulled out her badge and arrested me. Both her legs were real. Alan stifles a chuckle and Denny looks at him indignantly.Same day, Denny and Alan are sitting inside a judge’s chambers.Judge: You thought she had one leg?Denny Crane: A trip to Belize is a fair and square deal, Bill. Hell, if I had a nickel for every woman I promised to marry in exchange for sex—actually, I do.Judge: I’m supposed to believe this? Your father told you your best sex was to be had with amputees. You saw this woman limping and you were simply overcome?Alan Shore: You’re leaving out the most important factor, Your Honor.Judge: Which is?Alan Shore: The Red Sox. For years, many years, they have, at one time or another made each and every one of us insane. Last October, when they lost the seventh game to the Yankees, crime went up in this city. It’s already been predicted we’ll have a flood of August babies next year from celebration-induced pregnancies. The Red Sox make us lose ourselves. And in the wake of that team giving us what our hearts have yearned for all our lives, our parents’ and grandparents’ lives, we have fallen victim to a delirium that makes us believe anything, anything is possible. Including, but not limited to the notion that God put a fetching, one-legged woman in this man’s path to commemorate the end of a wretched, horrid curse.Denny Crane: You know me, Bill. I have hookers all the time. They come to my house. Why would I pull over to the side of the road?Judge (incredulous): Go. Beat it.Alan Shore: Thank you, sir.Denny Crane: Buy you a drink, counsel?Alan Shore: I’d love to, but I have to tend to some business with a much less reasonable judge. Denny Crane: Thank you, Bill. Who’s your daddy?Still same day, inside the hospital emergency room, Lori Colson is helping Michael Shea put on his shirt. Michael groans in pain.Lori Colson: Sorry.Michael Shea: So, uh, I’m not under arrest?Lori Colson: No. Without the bullet, the D.A. doesn’t have enough to charge you.Michael Shea: Thanks.Lori Colson: Listen, Michael—Michael Shea: Okay, wait. Don’t—don’t say it. You’re disappointed in me. Think I don’t get that? Lori Colson: I’m sure you do, but I don’t understand why—Michael Shea: Look, I tried. Okay, Lori? This might come as a shock to you but there’s noentry-level office training program for felons, okay? The only work out there for me is cleaning toilets. So if you’re gonna lecture me now—Lori Colson: I wasn’t about to do that. I just wanted to say that—Michael Shea: What?Lori Colson: I don’t want you to die. I’ve known you for a long time, and I like you. I don’t want you to die.Same day inside Alan’s office, he’s putting papers into his briefcase when Tara walks in. She sits in a chair.Tara Wilson: What are you doing now?Alan Shore: Going to raise a ruckus. Care to join me? Alan is putting on his coat.Tara Wilson: No thanks.Alan Shore: Do you want something?Tara Wilson: Nothing.Alan Shore: Tara, clearly you want something.Tara Wilson: I just came to tell you that we won our motion, which is fabulous. Our client gets to keep a bullet in his chest, and he’s probably gonna die. But a victory is a victory, right?Alan Shore: You really think he’s going to die?Tara Wilson: The thing is in his chest. The doctor said if it isn’t removed—Alan is opening a little black book and righting something on a post-it note.Alan Shore: Self-imposed death sentence in order to avoid a prison sentence. The irony is palpable.Tara Wilson: I agree. And yet he is stuck.Alan Shore: (handing her the post-it note) Or not.Tara Wilson: And this is?Alan Shore: A discretionary option.Same day, inside Judge Clark Brown’s chambers.Judge Clark Brown: My deputy gave me a full report. Needless to say, I’m outraged.Alan Shore: That’s refreshingly humane of you.Judge Clark Brown: I don’t follow.Alan Shore: Perhaps I don’t follow.Judge Clark Brown: I was quite explicit in my order. Four continuous hours in front of the building. Your guy barely lasted 20 minutes.Alan Shore: At which point, he was attacked with a glass bottle, sending him to the emergency room with a gaping wound in his head.Judge Clark Brown: Do you know what my mother would call you? A namby-pamby. Weak and spineless. Belly-aching about some trumped-up medical excuse. Well, your guy’s in violation of his sentence.Alan Shore: Your Honor, is something not registering? Walter Mack was attacked. Next time it could be considerably worse.Judge Clark Brown: If you’re so worried, take an extra marshal. But I want him back out there today, or the plea agreement is tossed. Is that understood?Alan Shore: It is not. Not at all. Alan turns and walks out.Judge Clark Brown: Good-bye, Mr. Shore.Same day, Lori is talking to Paul in his office.Lori Colson: I don’t know what to do. I feel so helpless.Paul Lewiston: What about Alan Shore?Lori Colson: What about him?Paul Lewiston: He’s been known to accomplish things. Maybe you should seek his help.Brad Chase enters the doorway.Brad Chase: You’re not going to find him. Oh, Alan Shore is taking Judge Brown before a disciplinary panel.Paul Lewiston: When?Brad Chase: Now.Paul Lewiston: Excuse me. Paul grabs his coat and quickly leaves.Same day, inside the courtroom of the disciplinary panel.Chairwoman Nora Lang: This is highly unusual, Mr. Shore. Seeking to discipline a judge for imposing a sentence your client agreed to.Alan Shore: I suspect we’d all agree to a good beating in order to avoid a prison sentence. But, Your Honors, we’re not in Singapore.Chairwoman Nora Lang: Still, given his consent—Alan Shore: He didn’t consent to land in a hospital bed with a concussion and 12 stitches across his skull. And now, astonishingly, Judge Brown expects him to go back for more.A door closes and Paul comes into the courtroom.Paul Lewiston: Pardon the interruption, Your Honors. Paul Lewiston of Crane, Poole and Schmidt. A word with my colleague. (to Alan, in a low voice) Stop this now.Alan Shore: This doesn’t concern you, Paul. You should leave immediately.Paul Lewiston: I am afraid Mr. Shore has inadvertently overstepped his authority in regard to this matter. Persuant to a signed letter of retention Walter Mack is, in fact, a client of our firm, not Mr. Shore specifically.Alan Shore: That’s ridiculous. I have personally represented Walter Mack for years.Paul Lewiston: Crane, Poole and Schmidt bears no ill will toward Judge Brown whatsoever. Nor do we seek to second-guess his sentencing of our clients.Alan Shore: And yet here I am, both second guessing and bearing ill will.Paul Lewiston: Alan, you are out of line.Alan Shore: You interrupt my hearing and accuse me of being—Chairwoman Nora Lang: Gentlemen. Gentlemen! Next time I suggest you settle on a position before convening an emergency panel. We are adjourned.Everyone is leaving the courtroom. Judge Brown walks up to Alan.Judge Clark Brown: In my courtroom, with your client, tomorrow, namby-pamby.Same day, inside CP&S, Alan Shore is returning, and Paul Lewiston meets him in the hallway.Paul Lewiston: It’s not my habit to ambush colleagues in the middle of a proceeding. But you gave me no choice, Alan. I cannot allow an associate to declare war on behalf of this firm. Certainly not against a highly influential jurist.Alan Shore: I’m giving notice. I believe two weeks is standard. Now step aside, Paul, before I push you to the ground and go to the bathroom on you.He walks away and gets on the elevator as Michael Shea is getting off of it. Michael Shea walks up to the receptionist. He’s sweating.Michael Shea: Lori Colson?Receptionist: She’s out of the office.Michael Shea: I gotta see her. You gotta call her. Please.Tara sees him and comes up to him.Tara Wilson: Michael? Are you all right? You look awful.Michael Shea: I’m thinking that maybe we can get some kind of plea? Is it too late?Tara Wilson: I don’t know, but Michael we’ve gotta get you to a hospital.Michael Shea: No. Hey, no. I won’t. Okay? I will die first. He starts to slump to the floor.Tara Wilson: Michael. (she tries to catch him). Michael, sit down. She helps him to a chair. Sit down. Stay there.Michael Shea: Okay.Tara runs into her office, grabs the post-it note out of a folder, grabs her jacket and leaves. The next day, inside Judge Clark’s courtroom.Judge Clark Brown: I don’t see a defendant, Mr. Shore.Alan Shore: I’m sure we can drum one up. The building is teeming with them.Judge Clark Brown: I believe I made myself clear. But perhaps an order of contempt will help move things forward.Alan Shore: Your Honor, if I could be berated in just a moment, might we first take care of one brief ceremonial matter? Your mother has been waiting ever so patiently.Judge Clark Brown: Excuse me?Alan Shore: (pointing to a woman in a wheelchair in the galley) Is this lovely woman not your mother?Judge Clark Brown: Mother! What are you doing in my courtroom?。

Boston LegalHead CasesSeason 1，Episode 1在这一集中，黑人女孩参加全美巡演的面试，而且非常地演唱了歌曲“Tomorrow”，但被拒绝，因为她是黑人，和漫画中要求的肤色不符…下面是本集中客串牧师的演员Al Sharpton以一个黑人的立场在法庭发表观点…Denny Crane: Pull a rabbit out of your hat.Denny Crane: 从帽子里变出只兔子来（寓意另辟蹊径，出其不意，无中生有）原文：Reverend Al Sharpton: Could I be heard, your Honor? I heard about this matter. I would like to address this court on what I consider . . .Judge Rita Sharpley: I’m sorry, Reverend, but you have no standing here.Reverend Al Sharpton: I have standing as an American citizen speaking up on a civil rights violation.Judge Rita Sharpley: Reverend Sharpton, I will ask you to step down . . .Reverend Al Sharpton: I have standing as Bobby Kennedy had standing, . . .Judge Rita Sharpley: You have no standing in this meeting.Reverend Al Sharpton: . . . on the steps of the courthouse in Alabama!Judge Rita Sharpley: No one is denying this little girl an education, sir. She just can’t play Annie.Reverend Al Sharpton: You may think this is a small matter. But this is no small matter. This child is being denied the right to play an American icon because she doesn’t match the description. Those descriptions were crafted 50 years ago! We’re supposed to be in a different day!Judge Rita Sharpley: Reverend . . .Reverend Al Sharpton: You talk about racial equality, how we’re making progress. The problem with that progress is it’s always a day away. Tomorrow, tomorrow—you love that!—because it’s always a day away. I’m here to stick out my chin today! Today! Give us an African-American Spider Man! Give us a black that can run faster than a speeding bullet and leap over tall buildings in a single bound! Not tomorrow—today! T oday! The sun needs to come out today! Not tomorrow, your Honor! God Almighty! Give the American people a black Orphan Annie. It’s just not good enough to say she doesn’t look the part.Reverend Al Sharpton: That’s what you call a rabbit, son. Denny Crane.译文：神父Al Sharpton: 请允许我发言，法官阁下，听说此事，我十分乐意在此表达我的观点…法官Rita Sharpley: 很抱歉，神父，您没有立场…神父Al Sharpton: 我以一个美国公民的身份在此评论公民权利的侵犯法官Rita Sharpley: Sharpton神父，请你退下神父Al Sharpton: 我站在此地，正如Bobby kennedy（肯尼迪家族成员，全家都主张人权）站在Alabama州法院的台阶上法官Rita Sharpley: 先生，没人在否认她的受教育权，她只是不能扮演Annie.神父Al Sharpton: 也许您认为这是小事，但它不是，这个孩子被拒绝了成为美国偶像的权利，那些作品已经过去了50年，今日的世界应有所不同法官Rita Sharpley: 神父. . .神父Al Sharpton: 您说种族平等取得了怎样的进展，但这种进展总是在说未来如何，“明天，明天，你们喜欢它” 因为它总是在今天之后，我要在今天疾呼，就在此时此刻，给予我们黑皮肤的蜘蛛侠吧，给我们一个比子弹还要快穿梭在高楼顶端的黑人英雄吧，不是明天，而是今天，今天，太阳要在今天升起，不是明天，法官阁下，全能的主啊，请赐予美国一个黑皮肤的孤儿Annie吧，说她不像角色，这个理由是站不住脚的。

Alan Shore为原告辩护，Alan的前妻为被告辩护。
两人结案陈词同样精彩，最终原告获赔12.5万美元。
原文：Alan Shore: Some people simply cannot let go. You love a person so desperately. You perhaps begin to lose sight of reason. And you begin to act unreasonably, perhaps out of control, even. It’s possible Daniel Ralston had no control over his behavior. Maybe he truly couldn’t stop pursuing Wendy Moore. Maybe he had to keep calling. Had to schedule those lunches. Had to seemingly stalk her, if you will. He was in love with her. People in love lose their grip. But what’s at issue here is her state of mind. Her mental state. Not Mr. Ralston’s state of mind. But Wendy’s. Was she reasonably upset by this relentless pursuit? She’s a married woman with a family, trying to salvage her marriage and her boss keeps calling. Keeps coming. Keeps coming. Keeps propositioning her. The fact that she once loved this man only makes it worse. More difficult. What choice did she really have but to leave? Maybe that was his plan all the time. He knew he couldn’t fire her. Maybe that was his psychological game. Where the only thing she could really do in the end was get in her car, and drive off. He created a hostile working environment with repeated, unwelcomed sexual advances, ladies and gentlemen. That is prima facie classic sexual harassment.Christine Pauley: Love happens in the workplace all the time. In fact, it’s where most affairs start. Most relationships. It happens. So do breakups. As a woman, I am offended by the onslaught of these lawsuits. As neutral as the language may be, sexual harassment law is gender biased. It exists to protect woman. It feeds into the perception that women are weaker than. It goes all the way back to common law where women were denied the right to enter into contracts because we lacked mental capacity. Today’s harassment law is designed to protect us from sexual banter in the workplace because we just can’t take it. I can take it. Can you? Can you? Do we really need to cleanse the workplace of all sexual expression so that it’ll be safe for us? These laws treat us as if we were either psychologically or emotionally impaired. And I’m sick of it. Are some cases legitimate? Absolutely. But here, this woman is a grown up. She entered into an adult consensual relationship with her boss. It ended. Perhaps bumpy. He’s hurt. He’s still in love. So she sues. She wasn’t fired. She is a college-educated vice president of a brokerage firm. She’s 34 years old. She’sa professional. She’s here today to tell you that she can’t stick up for herself. She is here today trying to take advantage of a law that declares women to be the weaker sex. Not for me, ladies and gentlemen. I wouldn’t have gotten in my car and driven off. I’d have sooner driven over him. Let’s treat these people—both of them— as if they were grown-ups.译文：Alan Shore:有些人会看不开，当你深爱一个人，你可能就会失去理性，变得荒唐，甚至失控。
