Lindsay, thank you so much for coming.

You want me to wait here?

No.

Well, so much for a better life awaits
me in California, huh?

I don't know if I can help you, Dennis.

You're the only person I could think of.

As I told you over the phone, there's
probably not a lot of time left. But I

didn't do it.

Okay.

And my lawyer is now telling me to
consider pleading out to murder, too.

I admit, I don't know that much about
your case, but they found her body in

car. I was framed, Lindsay.

I didn't even know that woman.

I'm also told they have letters from you
to her.

Emails. We were in the same chat room,
but I never met her in person.

Well, a week before the trial, I... I
really don't

think I can help you.

You came cross -country. Why would you
do that if you don't think you can help?

I guess... because you sounded
desperate.

I realize that we don't know each other
very well.

Well, for whatever reason, I trust you.

Could you just look at the file?

Talk to my lawyer? I did not kill that
woman. I never met that woman. I am an

innocent man.

And if I lose the trial, I'm looking at
the death penalty.

I'm sorry, I don't understand.

She flies halfway across the world?

She says she doesn't even know him that
good. They took an art class together

last year. And on this? What can I say?
She felt compelled to go. I said the

same things to her that you're saying to
me. Is she going to try the case? She's

just meeting with his lawyer.

She flies halfway... Jimmy?

Hey, there's not like an old boyfriend
out there or something, is there?

Look, I get paid to ask the hard
questions.

She's just meeting with his lawyer. When
she gets back, you can all grill her

like you're grilling me.

Is he hiring you?

I'm not looking to take over. I'm just
helping out a friend.

Well, it's not good.

They found the body in the back of his
car.

The murder weapon buried in some rags in
his garage.

Evidence of email correspondence.

He's claiming he was framed.

Yeah, well, all I can tell you is if he
was framed, it was done with meticulous

detail.

I should hire whoever did it to organize
things around here.

You think he's guilty?

I learned a long time ago to leave my
personal opinions out of the mix.

I would say the evidence leads me to
believe he's guilty.

But I do agree.

It's difficult to reconcile the facts
with my sense of the man.

Are these the files on the case?

No, that's...

An antitrust matter.

As boring as they come.

Here's Dennis' file here.

I'm actually on my way into court this
afternoon. I'm going to try and buy a

little more time.

He really went to town on her.

She was pretty.

Very.

Who's this?

That's Dennis' wife.

What's her take?

I don't know.

Do I believe he could murder somebody?

No.

But if you were to ask me, could I
believe my husband would have an affair,

would have said no to that as well.

I guess my take would be... I'm still in
a state of total

confusion.

From what I understand, your husband
claims it was just an email affair.

There was no physical. That's what he
told me, too. But they can prove he was

her house, Miss Dole.

I beg your pardon?

His prints were found in the house.

No! I was never there!

Never! Then how did your fingerprints...
I don't know!

Don't scream at me, Dennis.

They found my fingerprints on objects.

Things that can be moved.

Her eyeglasses, things personal to her,
things you had to have handled. Listen

to me. No, you listen.

Don't be snapping at me like my
questions are some kind of betrayal.

We don't really know each other, Dennis.

We took a class together.

We talked to each other two nights a
week over a three -month period. I don't

really know you at all.

So I'll ask my questions, or I'll get
right back on that plane.

I was never in that woman's house. I did
not.

Kill her.

Exactly why did you call me?

You said that your greatest strength as
a lawyer was that you could read people.

In depositions.

On witness chairs, you said that you
could look into them and see if they

truthful.

Look into me, Lindsay.

I know that my lawyer doesn't believe
me. And maybe even my wife has doubts.

I... I called you because I need
somebody who...

Look into me, Lindsay.

I'm a little shocked, actually. I really
won't take up much of your time. Less

of it than you'd hope, Miss Dole.

Do you really expect me to cooperate
with someone trying to help the man who

murdered my wife?

I don't believe Dennis Mills committed
the crime.

You don't.

And so is this an altruistic visit?

Or did he perhaps hire you?

He hired me, I won't lie, but I... Very
nice to have met you.

Mr. Kingman... Just for my own
education, how is it people like you

sleep at night? If I... You accept money
from murderers for the purpose of

manufacturing reasonable doubt.

What happens when you succeed?

Do you then go out and celebrate with
your client?

Encouraging him to recommend you to his
friends so should they go out and kill,

you stand ready and able with your
services?

You don't know me, Mr. Kingman.

You are soliciting the widower of the
victim.

I know enough.

Now please get out.

Your Honor, this is just another delay.

The people are... Forgive me for not
wanting to rush through a capital case.

Let me remind the court, the people are
seeking a death penalty here.

They might want to execute my client on
schedule, but before that, let's at

least pause to be thorough. I doubt it
would insult the process, Your Honor.

Mr. Jacobs, step up here.

You have come into my courtroom six
times for the exclusive purpose of

continuance. Every motion brought for
the same reason, you not being ready.

Not that there are new developments, not
that the witnesses are unavailable, not

that you're in ailing health, only that
you're not ready.

The last time, what did I tell you, Mr.
Jacobs?

If you don't remember, check the notice
from the court which memorialized the

proceeding. I ordered no further
continuances.

Was I too subtle, Mr. Jacobs?

No, Your Honor.

But given the severity of the charges, I
beg the court's indulgence. Given the

severity of the charges, you should have
walked in here prepared, like you

should have done the time before last
and the time before that. Your Honor.

court is through with indulging you,
Counsel. Motion for continuance denied.

This trial begins on Thursday.

Yes, Your Honor.

Six continuances?

Look, you don't just show up and wing a
murder case.

I understand, but not to be critical,
Mr. Jacobs, but from what I saw, the

doesn't look terribly developed.

Please.

I just got my ass chewed off by a rabid
judge. I don't need it nibbled on by

you. I'm only asking whether... If you
would like to take this case over, be my

guest. As you just heard, I don't have
much time, and I don't think it's in

Dennis Mills' best interest for you to
be slowing me down.

May I ask just one more question?

Is your antitrust case coming up for
trial?

How long have you known this guy?

Forever. He's been a friend of the
family and he has a reputation for being

great litigator.

Yes, well, he has a multi -million
dollar software antitrust trial slated

February. Something tells me that's
where all of his focus is.

He's looking at your case as simple,
simple that you did it. That's why he's

pushing for murder, too.

In my opinion, you need to switch
attorneys.

Well, can you do it?

One week? There's no way I could get up
to speed, but I'm sure that there are

others that... I want you.

Dennis, there are plenty of criminal
defense attorneys out here that... You

believe I'm innocent. I want you.

You don't know what I believe, so... I
can read people, too, Lindsay.

You know I didn't do this.

There is no way I could be ready to do
this in a week.

I'm sorry.

Well, couldn't you maybe, you know, get
somebody to help you?

I so wanted to go to California.

Yes, Lucy, you've been saying that for
the last five hours. This has been a

vacation. Can this guy afford all of us?
Not that it's my worry. I'm not a

pilot. You are my hero. I've always
wanted to come here.

I see.

I've got three adjoining rooms. I've
already turned it into kind of a command

center. Oh, this is tough.

I know.

She was hit a total of six times, the
fatal blow being the one on the temporal

lobe.

That's how few to them.

Victim sister.

How is she relevant?

She isn't really, except to swear that
there's no way her sister would ever

up with anybody she met online. That's
potentially exculpatory.

How'd they find the body?

Dennis' wife discovered it and called
the police.

So we can forget any motion to suppress.

There's our judge.

Very right wing. Do not expect him to
like any lawyer coming in from out of

state. Also, do not, do not, do not
interrupt him. Supposedly he's got a

peeve on that.

That's Dennis.

Guilty. Lucy.

Quiet.

He says he never even met the victim.
But he doesn't deny emailing her. My

theory is somebody else online
intercepted the correspondence, stole

then planned the meet.

After the murder, he sticks the body in
Dennis' trunk, knowing that the Internet

trail would lead to Dennis.

How do you explain Dennis' prints at the
scene?

I can't yet.

Okay, first thing, we've got to try for
a continuance. That'll be tough.

New counsel, I should get it. Meanwhile,
let's talk to the victim's sister, the

nun, Eleanor. Go see her. Lucy, we've
got to find out who else the woman

emailed.

I should meet with the client.

Henry Doakes, lead homicide detective,
veteran, good cop, drinker. Jimmy, try

talk to him. We should also see if
there's any dirt, gambling problem,

little hooker habit on the side,
whatever, anything I can use.

What do we have for our case?

Just Dennis, home alone at the time of
death.

Where was his wife?

Giving a seminar in Mar Vista. She's a
teacher.

Is she with us on this?

Yes, but the affair left her a little
shaky.

Okay, talk to her again. Make sure we
can count on her. Any character

I'm running that down.

Okay, I guess we all have jobs to do.
Can I talk to you for a second?

How well do you know this guy?

I told you, art class.

What'd you paint?

Nudes? Were you the model or what?

What? What's he have on you?

What do you mean? What's he have on me?
We flew four lawyers plus an assistant

cross -country based on your conviction
that the wrong guy is being railroaded

for murder?

That's right. Where's your evidence?

You say yourself you don't know him that
well. What's making you so sure he's

not a murderer? What am I missing?

Sometimes when you meet people, you get
a feel.

A feel?

Yes, a feel.

I mean, maybe I can't explain how I
know, but I just do.

Bobby, sometimes you just know things
about people.

Dennis Mills is not capable of killing
anybody.

We've got an innocent man.

Stacy would never, never meet up with a
person she met in some internet chat

room. Sister, she did write those
emails.

Yes. She had a wild side on the
internet.

I realize this.

But there is a big difference between
writing anonymous correspondence and

meeting up with a stranger in person.

My sister was not that big of a risk
taker.

Which leads you to believe... She was
killed by a stranger.

Or she was introduced to this Mr.

Mills in some other fashion.

Would you testify to that?

I suppose.

You really don't think, after a long
correspondence, she would agree to meet

person?

If she did, well, maybe she deserves to
burn in hell, then.

In eternal flame.

I don't deny writing the emails.

What's the issue? The issue is this
isn't just evidence of correspondence.

This is dark.

It's sexual.

You get online and you can assume a
different personality, a different

It's like play acting. But I'm not that
person. That was just a game. I have

never, ever hurt anybody.

And you never even met her? No.

But I want you to listen to me very
carefully.

Can you do that, Dennis?

Please don't talk to me like I'm an
idiot. I'm not an idiot.

Maybe not.

But if you're innocent, then someone's
playing you very successfully for a

I don't like him. Dennis, you asked me
to help you. I brought him in from

Boston. I don't care.

Fine. Then we'll all leave.

I brought him in because he is your best
last chance.

You were looking at the death penalty.
You said it yourself.

If he can help you, I'd put up with what
he has to say, even if he makes you

feel like an idiot.

Go ahead.

For us to have any chance, you will need
to take this stand.

For me to be able to put you on the
stand, I have to believe that you will

truthful testimony.

So if I did kill her, keep it to myself,
is that what you're saying?

On everything else, I have to know. I
cannot be surprised. Do you hear me,

Dennis? That means if you did ever meet
her, if you did have an affair, if you

did ever go to her house, I need to
know.

Were you having a relationship with that
woman?

This was the relationship.

I have never, ever met her in person.

All I'm saying is there's some serious
rage going on. If somebody framed you

murder, you'd be upset.

I'm telling you it's the sister. That
Vernon Hellcrack? Oh, come on, Eleanor.

That's a George Vogelman thing.

A what?

You look at nuns now and see killers.
You're a nun bigot. All right, don't

start. Lindsay, you're the one who got
attacked, not me. But I don't look at

anybody in a habit and go, murderer.

I don't do that. All right. I'm telling
you, the sister was weird, okay? I was

there, you weren't. I said, all right.

Did she say anything to help us?

As a matter of fact, yes. She said she
didn't think Stacy would meet up with

somebody who she met in the chat room.

Is that it?

It's something. What'd you get?

I'm not criticizing, I'm just analyzing.
Like I failed. All right. Oh, now

you're going all right.

All right.

New evidence.

What do you mean, new evidence?

Anything you didn't already give the DA,
I don't care.

Look, I'm just trying to justify a fee.
If I can go back to my client with

anything, it'll make it easier to
collect. You get what I'm saying?

Any other suspect you ran down.

If I dig up a red herring, even a bogus
one, I'll get to bank my retainer.

What do I look like, some rookie?

Trying to justify a fee.

You're in here trying to glean anything
you can to put that bastard back on the

streets.

I'm not going to give you anything, Mr.
Paludi.

I don't give a rat's ass whether you get
the bank or retainer.

We don't have to get aggressive here.

All right.

We're buddies.

I don't like your little camaraderie
come on.

I'm a police officer. You're a defense
lawyer.

We don't lump in well.

What, you want to make it like a big
fight?

Yeah, counsel.

You're in the business of freeing
murderers.

I'd be happy to make it into a big
fight.

And pursuant to my client's right to a
fair trial, the interests of justice

certainly demand that his new lawyers be
afforded time to properly get up to

speed and prepare for trial. We wouldn't
be looking for a big delay, your honor.

I think we could be ready in three weeks
even.

Three weeks?

Yes.

Mr. Donald, I don't know how you do
things in Massachusetts.

In Massachusetts, the courts may not
have a problem continuing a case in

perpetuity, but we're a little different
in California, counsel, and when a case

has already been... Your Honor, I...

In

Massachusetts, maybe a defendant, if he
wants to keep delaying trial, he can

just fire counsel and have his new, new
lawyers beg the judge for time to get up

to speed.

But it was a long flight, wasn't it, Mr.
Donald?

I just ask you a question, Mr. Donald.
Was it not a very long flight?

Yes, Your Honor, it was.

Yes. And when you got off that plane,
you might perhaps have looked around,

a palm tree or two, the Pacific Ocean,
freeway gridlock. You should have known

right then you were no longer in
Massachusetts.

This case is set for trial on Thursday.
I will be here. Mr. Fox will be here.

Your client, Mr. Mills, will be here.
And we will begin.

Either you can join us or you can go
back to Massachusetts.

Adjourned.

Hold on. Hold on just a second.

Uh -oh.

Come on, Bobby.

Are we not done, counsel?

Yes, Your Honor.

Done.

What the hell was that?

We're in L .A.

Your instincts on the nun might be
right. She has an assault and drug

You've got to be kidding.

As a teenager.

Something. Yeah, it is.

Why'd you move out here?

People frame people for murders, then
they get judged like this. It's a

horrible, horrible state.

My wife couldn't take the winters back
east.

Speaking of which, is she going to
support you here?

Yes, why?

Well, she describes herself as being in
a state of confusion over all this.

That's not exactly a ringing
endorsement.

Karen knows I didn't do this. She'll say
that.

Well, we don't have much time for her to
get clear -headed.

I'm off to meet with her now.

Bobby, Jimmy, and Eleanor are running
down everybody else they can locate who

was in that chat room.

Listen.

If we could get it to voluntary
manslaughter, that's not an indication

think you're guilty. Then what is it?

An assessment of our case.

With the realization in defeat, we are
looking at a lethal injection.

If I am put to death, then I am put to
death.

But I certainly will not say that I
committed a murder when I didn't.

My kids may not get to grow up with
their father, Lindsay, but they will get

grow up with at least the chance of
believing in him.

I won't take that away from them.

We got to get out of this.

I promised him. You tried to help, I
know, and the best way we can help is to

drop him.

With no lawyer, this thing can't start
on Thursday.

The judge won't go for that.

What's he going to do, force the guy to
stand trial without representation?

Well, this judge just might. In which
case, he'd guarantee a new trial.

We came out here... I know you want to
help him, but we have to face it. We've

got nothing to mount a defense with.

Add to that, this judge isn't going to
cut any favors for out -of -state

lawyers. The best thing we can do is to
get back on that plane.

We're fighters. We don't give up like
this. We fight. Yes, we do.

But this...

is Dennis' fight.

You've got a better chance than somebody
else.

Anybody disagree?

Now let's pack up. We'll bring a motion
to withdraw in the morning and then go

home.

Who do you think you're kidding? On what
basis do you seek to withdraw?

Your Honor, before a trial, I'm not sure
we need... Four days before. You do.

I'm waiting.

We have fundamental differences with the
defendant. What differences?

That remains within work product.

You will stay on as counsel.

You can't force us to remain here. I can
absolutely force you, Mr. Donald, and

that's what I'm doing. This is another
dilatory attempt, and my patience is

wearing thin. I'm not seeking a
continuance. Mr.

Mills can get another attorney. The
effect of which would compel me to

trial.

You have an offer of second degree on
the table, Mr. Donald. The court

you give serious regard to it.

Is the court trying to coerce a plea?
The court is trying to convey to counsel

it will not be manipulated by tactics.

I'm not doing that.

I've familiarized myself with you.

Do you know what your brethren think
about you in Massachusetts?

They say if you were to go out to feed
the pigs, you'd have to get somebody

to call them.

I don't believe you're withdrawing for
any other reason than to buy time, which

you may believe is in your client's
interest.

Motion to withdraw as counsel denied.

Now, go about your work.

It was a chat room. I never met anybody
from it in person, I swear. Did you ever

correspond with Mrs. Kingman? Mr.
Donald, what's going on here? I swear...

just trying to get a sense of... Look,
if it ever gets out that I was in that

chat room, my job could be in jeopardy.

It was one of those erotic things.

I understand. I swear, I never met a
single person.

Everybody who's shooting him... Mr.
Letterman, take a breath.

And the police never talk to you?

No.

Why should they?

Can you tell me where you were on the
night of May 12th?

Oh, my God.

You're talking to me like I'm a suspect.

Oh, my God.

Mr. Letterman.

My life is over.

Mr. Letterman, your life isn't over. Oh,
my God.

Oh, my God.

I understand you have reservations,
but...

Mrs. Mills, do you think your husband is
capable of committing this crime?

No.

Well, if I ask you that on the stand,
you can't take that beat before

You need to respond quickly and
emphatically. Otherwise, I can't even

there. But won't they ask me about his
affair?

He claims there was none.

You don't believe him on that?

Not necessarily, no.

Look, you read those letters. What do
you think?

I haven't known him for 15 years.

Well, I suddenly wonder, maybe I...

Haven't really known him either. Those
kinds of answers, we don't call you.

Oh, look, please do not tell me what to
say. I'm not telling you what to say.

I just need to know what you will say.

I feel like I'm being pressured.

I'm the one under pressure, Mrs. Mills.
We just got this case. We have to be

prepared to try it in three days. We are
under enormous pressure.

And if you don't take that stand and
categorically deny the possibility that

your husband could have done this, then
you're no good to him.

Can you say that or not?

How dare you?

Just a simple question, ma 'am. Simple
question. Where was I on the night my

sister was murdered?

Well, here's the simple response.

Go to hell.

Nice talk for a nun.

One of the reasons I joined the convent
was because I was a troubled teenager.

Yes. If that makes me a murder suspect
in your mind. I didn't accuse you of

murder. Why were you asking my
whereabouts? I'm just collecting

That's all. Well, you're not very good
at it. I'm done talking to you.

I feel like Manic.

Who?

Manic. Didn't you ever watch that?

It was a private eye.

I had this crush on Peggy.

Came on before Mission Impossible.

You're probably like man from uncle.

I didn't order nobody.

We just want to talk to you, Mr.
Breslin.

No. I have a gun.

That was the manic's move.

Nice place.

What do you guys want?

I didn't do nothing.

We came to talk to you about Stacey
Kingman. I didn't kill her.

That's kind of a funny response.

We didn't ask you if you killed her.

The police did.

I told them.

The police talked to you?

Yeah. Why?

Because of the email crap.

But it's just letters, you know? I told
him, I just send this stuff. It means

nothing. It's a hobby.

What do you write in your emails?

That I was going to kill her and stuff.

But, I mean, I write that to lots of
girls.

That you're going to kill them?

Yeah. But they're all living, happy.

I'm friends with some.

There's nothing about this man in the
file. Absolutely nothing.

We didn't know about it. The police
interviewed the guy. Well, they never

brought him to the attention of the
district attorney's office. Oh, I'm sure

never heard of him. I don't like your
accusation. Your Honor, this is

new and exculpatory evidence. We need
time to explore it. Denied.

The man emailed the victim, threatening
to kill her. And as I understand it, he

emailed hundreds of women. But this
woman ended up dead.

Look, I see an army of lawyers at your
table. You can chase all this down.

That's crazy.

Your Honor, we need more time.

There's been no unfair surprise here.
The trial doesn't begin until Thursday.

me, that's enough time. Motion for a
continuance denied.

We'll start voir dire after lunch.

Bobby.

Does counsel have a thought he'd like to
share with the court?

Is it typical of a California judge?

Let's look at the bright side. At least
we got something now.

What did you find? A guy who threatened
to kill her.

Excuse me? Mr. Kingman, hello.

You talked to him? He shut me down.

Eleanor.

Mr. Kingman, my name is Eleanor Frutt.
I'm one of the attorneys representing

Dennis Mills. Yeah, he flew in from
Boston.

Mr. Kingman, did you know your wife was
corresponding with Anthony Brickman?

Did you know the content of the email?

No. Could it be possible? What's going
on here?

We were just discussing the lovely
California weather. What's it to you? I

want you harassing government witnesses.

Mr. Kingman, please.

Hold on. Are you instructing this
witness not to speak to me? What's going

He's instructing witnesses not to
cooperate. I am shielding a witness from

harassment. You have no idea what I was
saying to him. Well, I know you weren't

discussing the weather council. You
can't tell a witness not to talk to us,

Fox. I can tell a witness to speak at
his own peril, Mr. Donald.

You think I didn't check you people out?

Plan B?

Think that secret was going to stay back
in Boston?

I know all about the disgusting
strategies you people employ.

Hey. You're the one concealing evidence.
I didn't know about that, man. Yeah,

right.

Mr. Donald, let me give you a piece of
advice.

I'm a co -member of the bar.

You pull the crap in this court that you
regularly pull in Boston, and you will

be doing more time than Mr. Mills.

Let me give you a tip.

Neither you nor that fat -ass Orange
County alum that's wearing the robe

me. Okay, Bobby. Don't even bother.

It's not worth it.

All right, Lindsay, Eleanor, you take
Wadir. Jimmy, you and I should go back

see Brickman.

I love L .A.

Suspended twice.

Once in 1992 and again in 96.

Both were drinking?

Yeah. Who are you talking about?

Doakes, the detective in charge of the
investigation.

You smell anything on his breath when
you met him? Just venom.

Divorced in 95.

Probably related to his drinking.

Jimmy, ask a few questions down at the
courthouse. The clerks know everything.

Oh, I'm sure they'll cooperate.

Everyone out here is so helpful. Just
ask around. Lead detective anything we

get on him. Lucy, why are you wearing a
bathing suit?

Oh, I like them. I'm going to catch a
little pool time.

Forget it.

Kelly, I did not come to California to
be cooped up in this room. Lucy, I told

you this is not a vacation.

I'm here for your work on your tan.

Keep checking on the detective and the
nun.

Have you read about this case at all,
Mrs. Reynolds?

Maybe a little, not much. Can you tell
me what you know about it?

Just that this Mills fellow is accused
of killing the woman.

Do you think he can be impartial? Well,
when a man bludgeoned somebody to death

and sticks her in a car trunk, all
things considered...

I can be as neutral as the next person.

Remove for cause.

Denied.

She basically just said she's prejudged
Dennis Mills guilty.

No, she didn't. She said if a man
bludgeoned and stuffed, she didn't say

necessarily believed it was your client.

You want to use one of your
peremptories? Fine.

But the court has no problem with it.

Defense excuses juror number four.

That went well. How far did you get?

Seven. The judge isn't making it easy.
What a surprise.

Counsel.

I understand you have some questions.

I'm just doing a little background on
all the state witnesses.

Well, maybe I could do some background
checks of my own.

Is that a threat, detective?

If you did your homework, you'd know I'm
in AA and I have been for six months.

Bottom feeding grime. That's what you
people are. Hey.

You declared this a fight. Get out of my
face, pal. Now I am officially in your

face, detective.

You want it nasty? Let's make it nasty.

You want to investigate me?

I have got a whole department to
investigate you. You do that.

But you don't have any power in that
room. I do.

And I can't wait to be calling you to
the stand.

Do I look scared?

You're too stupid to be scared.

All right.

We're done here.

Everybody's just so nice here.

Hey, what's going on?

Oh, we were just mingling with another
friendly member of your Sunshine State.

Look, I'm adding a witness to our list.

Warren Rydell, photographer.

Who's he?

He will introduce and authenticate this
picture.

We'll probably be calling him up first.

Oh, gee. What?

Just a picture of our client standing
with the victim, the woman he never met

person.

Some kind of trick.

That picture is real. It's not a trick.
And it's evidence that you met her. No!

Look, this is a museum or something.
Now, maybe I was there when she was

but we never met. She just happened to
be there standing two feet away?

Somebody is... Oh, God.

What?

I told her I was going to the opening.

Daisy Kingman? Yes.

Now, maybe she...

She must have gone there to see what I
looked like.

You never talked to her? No.

Because, Dennis, if you did, maybe you
held her glasses for a second. That's

your prince got into her house.

Think about it.

Maybe you did talk to her. I didn't.

And you no longer think I'm innocent.

I do.

Then why'd you ask me to lie?

I am not asking you to lie. You spoon
-fed me a lie. Now, why would you do

Stop raising your voice!

Please don't. Please. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Give me a minute.

I have been here for six months.

And every time they bring me food, every
time a person walks by, they look in

here and they just assume me to be a
killer.

Even when my wife visits, I can see the
doubt in her eyes.

I can't take it anymore. I just...

I'm starting to make... Stacy...

Stacy must have wanted to come check me
out at the museum, but

we never met. We never spoke.

It doesn't look good.

I'm going to ask you to consider the
plea.

One more time.

Okay.

I didn't trust Jacobs, but I do you.

You tell me to take manslaughter, I'll
take it.

Tell me.

Whatever you say.

Don't take it.

Try the case.

Death penalty on the line. Try the case.

Try the case.

the hell could you say that it's all
circumstantial we can make reasonable he

said he never met the victim now they
have a photograph of the two of them

together that was a coincidence they
were both attending a coincidence or she

went to check him out but they never met
come on lindsey this guy is dead in the

water he was open to taking manslaughter
he was browbeaten into considering i

don't care any way he gets there he
should be jumping at it don't be jumping

me practically malpractice i said don't
jumping on me all right all right would

everybody just calm down 72 hours that's
how much time we have left if we lose

he gets death death by lethal injection
they do that here tell me what the hell

we have to convince the jury of
reasonable doubt he didn't do it i know

isn't enough yes it is we get people off
with evidence he's innocent

We all got on a plane and came out here.

It wasn't to get pushed around by some
judge.

It wasn't to get spat on by a cocky
detective.

And it wasn't to quit.

Lindsay's right.

We're fighters.

We flew across country to fight for
Dennis Mills.

So that's what we do.

72 hours from now, the gloves come off,
and we do what we do.

That judge, that DA, time for them to
get a taste of us.
