All language subtitles for LA Law s06e15 Great Balls Afire

Previously on L .A. Law. Why now, Arnie?

Why push our luck?

Because... Because I love you.

Don't tell me that under that lawyerly
suit you're really a romantic.

Well, if by that you mean I believe
every woman has one special light in her

that can only be seen by one special
man, then I'm guilty as charged. Lock me

and throw away the key.

Racism is about oppression.

This would only be racism if blacks
could oppress or exclude whites. You're

trying to exclude me from Jonathan's
life on the basis of my race. What's the

difference?

I probably should be having this talk
with Jonathan. You probably should.

Mom, I do love her.

She's not a status symbol. She's someone
I really care for.

I know, but it hurts.

Seeing you with someone so different.

Mr. Markowitz, Barry Gorman. Thanks for
seeing me.

Sure.

What can I do for you?

Oh, we'll get to that.

It's a nice family.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

So you have a client with a tax problem,
right?

Oh, no, no.

This is a private matter.

You, uh...

Knew a woman back in 1974 named Karen
Alder?

Yes, I did indeed. We met down in Baja.

How's she doing?

She passed away a few months ago.

I'm very sorry to hear that.

She was a couple of years younger than I
am. You and Ms. Alder had a

relationship, right?

I wouldn't call it a relationship. We
went out a few times.

You had sexual relations on some of
those occasions, didn't you? Excuse me?

So what's this about, Mr. Gordon?

This is about paternity, Mr.

Markowitz.

You have a daughter.

Well, so far, this alleged daughter
hasn't filed yet. She'll probably

to go public to force a settlement.

That's blackmail. Oh, absolutely.

Look, this Gorman is a bottom feeder.

I wouldn't be surprised if he
manipulated this girl into filing suit.

He may even try to get a point at her
guardian. So we're looking at fraud

Probably. But they've done some
homework.

Stuart, you did know this woman, Karen
Alder?

Yeah, I dated her for like three months.

And you did go to bed with her? Yeah.

Casual signage.

Well, I wasn't a monk. I never said you
were. Okay, the good news is, the girl

is 16. The most she can ask for is two
-year support until she reaches her

majority. What's the bad news?

California child support guidelines
state that a child must be supported in

fashion commensurate with the father's
wealth. Oh, God. Given your net annual

salary, I can see her going for, what,
$6 ,000 a month for two years? You're

looking at a $150 ,000 hit here. If this
really were my daughter, why didn't the

mother contact me for support?

Exactly. Relax.

They overlooked one thing. What?

Your sperm count is so low it can be
measured in fractions.

Their case is real shaky.

Great. That makes me feel really
wonderful.

So what do we do?

The easiest way to get rid of this?

DNA tests.

But it probably won't come to that.

Look, Gorman is a Kmart lawyer. If I go
at him at warp 10 and I don't let up, I

might intimidate him right back into the
woodwork.

Good. Because if he thinks we're going
to roll over for this kind of extortion,

he is dead wrong.

Next up.

The Simon and Catherine Rubin Foundation
versus University of California and Dr.

Emily Connor.

We're representing Dr.

Connor and the university?

Yeah. The Rubin Foundation granted Dr.

Connor $100 ,000 to study a new way to
save heart attack and stroke victims.

She's halfway through the project, and
Kurt Rubin, the foundation's president,

wants his money back.

Why? He says she's breached their
contract by using scientific data

The Nazi concentration camps. What?
Nazis? We're representing Nazis? No,

representing a highly respected
scientist who wants to save lives.

Which particular Nazi experiment is he
using?

The Dachau hypothermia experiment.

You know, where they subject the
prisoners to freezing temperatures and

their physiological responses.

How many died?

About 90 men. But tens of thousands die
every month from heart disease, and my

client thinks she can save a lot of
them. I'm sorry, I don't buy that.

I hate to sound crass, but if it meant
the life or death of somebody that I

loved, I'd...

Want them to use the data.

It won't change what happened to those
prisoners. I don't think it's quite that

simple, Arnold. Come on, Leland. No
one's saying experiments weren't

but they were 50 years ago. If the data
can feed even one life today, I feel we

should do it. I'm not saying you
shouldn't take the case, Jonathan.

But I understand what Mr. Rubin is
afraid of. Is there any possibility of a

settlement? So far, they haven't been
willing. I think they're just hoping for

their best deal at the 11th hour.

Good luck.

And we're adjourned.

That's it for News at Noon. Have a great
day, L .A.

We're clear.

Good work, people.

Good people.

These tears are murder.

Here, let me show you what's good for
you. Come here. Sit down.

All right.

Oh, your scapula's in spasm.

Okay, just relax.

How can I ever thank you?

Well, now that you ask, I have two
tickets for Phantom this Friday night,

and I just broke up with someone.

I'd hate to listen to the music of the
night alone.

Would you go with me?

I'd love to, but I can't. I'm living
somewhere.

And she's going to meet me here for
lunch.

Well, that proves it.

All the good ones are taken.

Sorry.

I'll live.

Just to show you there are no hard
feelings, I'll finish up your left trap.

Is this what they mean by hands -on
journalism?

Oh, boy.

This is heaven.

Roxanne. Hi.

Julie Rayburn?

Do you know Julie Rayburn? No.

No, but I've heard a lot about her.

Julie, this is my girlfriend, Roxanne
Melvin.

Nice to meet you.

Got a great guy here.

Thanks. I think so, too.

Most of the time. We gotta go. See you
tomorrow.

We'd like to find some middle ground
here, Mr. Rubin.

We've still got a few minutes before
court. No. Well, it can't hurt to at

listen, Kirk. There is no middle ground.

Using my money to legitimize Nazis
desecrates the memory of my parents.

And letting people die honors them?
Emily. We have a contract.

This isn't just about contracts.

It's about not forgetting.

This is pointless.

Jonathan!

Hey, babe. There was a file on the
kitchen table.

People versus a burrito?

You are a lifesaver. I'm going to go.

Bye.

Your wife?

Girlfriend.

Is that a problem?

We live with it.

My mother was a Protestant, and my
father was a Jew.

They were not allowed to live with it.

Under the Nazis, their marriage was a
crime.

Their punishment was death.

Mr. Rubin, what happened when you were
seven years old?

I was climbing trees in the woods near
our house.

When I got home, my parents were gone.

The Nazis had taken them to Auschwitz. I
never saw them again.

What did you do?

I lived in the woods for several days
before a neighbor found me. For the next

year, I was a child fugitive, sometimes
running, sometimes hiding in farmers'

barns and cellars.

Finally, I was...

Smuggled to Switzerland.

Do you know what happened to your
parents in the concentration camps?

Yes. A survivor I found after the war
told me that the Nazis tried to make my

father a kapo, a prisoner who would help
them brutalize other prisoners.

Did your father agree?

No.

He committed suicide by throwing himself
on an electrified fence.

And your mother?

They shot her.

When she tried to stop them from
removing my father's head.

Why would they remove his head?

A Nazi anthropologist wanted Jewish
skulls for his collection.

And this is the kind of science the
Nazis practice? Objection irrelevant.

It is not the kind of science Dr. Conner
practices.

Sustained. Why did you establish a
foundation in your parents' name, Mr.

To promote the betterment of mankind
subject to...

ethical medical research standards.

Then why did you agree to fund a project
that included the Dachau hypothermia

data? Because Dr. Karner's application
didn't state that she was going to use

the data.

It was only after she cashed my check
that she began conducting seminars which

referenced this torture.

If you'd known this, you'd never have
agreed to give her the grant.

Absolutely not.

My father and mother were butchered by
those criminals, Mr. Robertson.

How can anyone expect me to give money
in their name to someone who says that

these criminals were scientists?

No further questions.

Does the Rubin Foundation require grant
applicants to list all of their research

sources? We require primary sources,
yes. And didn't Dr. Conner list her

sources? Yes, but... So Dr. Conner
didn't deceive you in her application?

No, but she obviously omitted the Dachau
data because she knew that I would...

Move this drag, Mr. Rubin isn't able to
read Dr. Conner's mind.

Sustained. Doesn't your grant include a
statement protecting full academic

freedom? This is not about academic
freedom, Mr. Rollins.

It's about my right to refuse to finance
lies. Yes or no, Mr. Rubin? Do you

believe in academic freedom?

Yes. But I don't believe in legitimizing
atrocities. And doesn't Dr. Conner say

her research can save lives?

Yes. And if that's true, isn't her work
promoting the betterment of mankind?

Not if it exonerates savagery.

You think this is all over and done
with?

You think the Nazis were just some
historical aberration?

Your Honor, I move to strike. Look
around you.

We're in a recession and up springs a
former Ku Klux Klansman to run for

president. Your Honor. Mr. Rubin. In
Germany, neo -Nazis are killing

and people watch just like they watch
Hitler. Mr. Rubin, please.

What if you're a communist, Dr. Connor?
Or a homosexual? That's enough. Sit

down, Mr. Rubin. What if they outlaw
scientists?

What if you're the enemy next time? Mr.
Rubin, please.

Be aggressive, Arnie. I want vintage
Becker. Please, Ann.

Good morning.

Mr. Markowitz.

Mr. Becker.

This is my wife, Ann Kelsey.

Mr. Gorman.

I'd like you both to meet my client,
Sarah Alder.

Hi.

Hello.

Hi.

Hi. Let's get started.

The first thing I'd like to know is what
you're doing representing a minor.

So happens, Counselor, that I'm planning
on seeking guardianship for this young

lady. You know the only thing that
stinks here worse than your case,

is your ethics. Let's drop the
animosity, shall we? You haven't even

animosity, Mr. Gorman.

It's highly unlikely that this girl is
Mr. Markowitz's daughter, as these

medical records from his urologist can
attest. You're leveling flimsy charges

against a man of high principles.

And a low sperm count.

All right, honey.

She's your daughter, Stuart.

What? You're the father, I can tell.

Terrific. Let's drop some paper. Look in
her eyes, for God's sake. Can't you see

it? I don't believe this. How are we
going to tell Matthew? Honey, Matthew's

years old. I can just see it now.
Mother, this is Stuart's daughter by a

previous relationship. Wait a minute. We
don't talk to your mother now. Why

should this change? He's not my father.

What?

I'm sorry.

I knew my mom had been with you.

I knew you had money. That's why I came
to you.

But you're not my real father. Let's not
jump to any rash conclusions here.

He doesn't even look like me.

I'm sorry.

During 1942 and 43, approximately 350
male concentration

camp prisoners were either plunged naked
into vats of freezing water or hosed

down and left outdoors in sub -zero
weather.

To lower their body temperatures to
subnormal levels.

Yes. As their temperatures dropped,
physiological and biochemical changes

recorded. When they were near death, the
Nazis tried various methods to re -warm

them. What was the so -called purpose
for these experiments?

To find ways to save German pilots who
fell into the North Sea when their

were shot down.

As an expert on these experiments...

How would you say the Dachau study
measures up scientifically?

The report is riddled with
inconsistencies and very likely

is no evidence that scientific standards
were maintained.

And what about the man who ran these
experiments?

Dr. Sigmund Rascher was a mediocre
scientist, but he was an accomplished

whose hobbies included collecting human
skin for writing britches.

Did Dr. Rascher conduct any other
experiments for the Nazis? Objection.

Relevance. Goes to the competency of the
researcher, Your Honor. I'll allow it.

I hesitate to call what Rasher did
experiments.

He put people in pressure chambers until
his subjects' lungs exploded. He also

slaughtered men and women by amputating
their limbs to test a medication he

claimed would reduce bleeding.

Dr. Howell, if a scientist came forward
today with data gathered using methods

like Sigmund Rasher's, what do you think
would happen? He'd be thrown in prison,

and his data recognized for the garbage
it is.

Thank you.

Your witness.

You say this data is garbage, Dr.
Howell? Yes. Then how do you explain the

that it's been cited in numerous
respected medical studies?

The authors obviously only took the
results at face value. They haven't done

real analysis.

But didn't the Dachau data help
researchers develop techniques for open

surgery and cold -water survival suits?

The degree to which that data helped is
highly debatable, counsel.

The majority of medical ethicists agree
with me. Medical ethicists agree, and

that's primarily your field, isn't it,
doctor?

Yeah. But physicians and physiologists
like Dr. Conner have found that data

valuable and utilized it in the past.
Isn't that correct?

Every time that we accept the
unacceptable, the unspeakable, we bring

much closer to happening again.

Doctor, we don't live in Nazi Germany.

Starting in 1932, the U .S. Public
Health Service studied hundreds of black

with syphilis. They never told them they
had the disease.

Bad blood is what they called it. And
even after the introduction of

they refused to cure them.

Those men died horrible deaths, all for
the sake of a study. A study that didn't

stop until 1972.

So don't tell me this kind of thing
can't happen here, counsel. That's

Dr. Howell, but it is not what this case
is about. Dr.

Connor is not an unethical researcher.

She is, if she uses unethical data. Or
maybe she saw a way to bring some good

out of the pain and terror these
prisoners suffered.

Objection. Withdrawn. I have nothing
further.

Arnie, just the man I want to see. Do
you know anything about computer sex?

Sex between computers?

Two minutes to floor.

No, no. Computer operators.

Electronic bulletin boards on sexual
topics. Like phone sex, but via modem.

it's not all talk, either. With a good
printer, you can send photographs or

illustrations like these.

I guess it's the missionary position.

If you're a missionary from Mars.

Computer -generated images.

Cybersex. It's a natural, right?

Oh, absolutely a natural.

For what?

Sweeps week.

Now, what I need from you is the legal
angle. 30 seconds to floor.

This could give us both a big boost.

It's incredibly hot. Our faces will be
all over every promo for the 6 o 'clock

news. Think of the exposure.

Sounds good. Let's do it this afternoon.

I can't. I've got a remote at Griffith
Park.

And I'm in the editing room all day
tomorrow.

How about tomorrow night? We can go to
my place, order a pizza, go over

everything.

Your place tomorrow.

You've got it. And four, three, two,
one.

Dr. Connor, you're a specialist in
hypothermia and the study of blood flow

the brain, correct?

Yes. With the Rubin Grant, I hope to
find ways to lessen the damage of heart

disease by cooling certain parts of the
brain. What good would that do?

During a heart attack or stroke, the
brain gets less oxygen and glucose.

Cooling the brain helps diminish its
need for those things and hopefully

the time for medical intervention.

And where does the Dachau hypothermia
data fit in? That data could pinpoint

which areas of the brain are most
responsive to cooling.

It will also help determine how far we
can cool someone's brain before we do

damage ourselves.

And that information isn't available
elsewhere?

No. With all their flaws, the Dachau
hypothermia experiments are the most

extensive studies of the human
thermoregulatory system we have. What

animal studies?

They don't help. All mammals respond
differently to cold.

How do you feel about what the Nazis did
at Dachau, Dr. Conner?

As a human being, I think it's
horrendous.

As a medical researcher, I have to
balance it against the potential the

has to save others.

Thank you, Dr. Conner. No further
questions.

Dr. Conner.

Could you complete your project without
the Dacal hypothermia data?

Yes, but it would take longer, months
longer. And every 32 seconds in this

country, someone dies of cardiovascular
disease, someone I might be able to

save. Wouldn't those extra months also
benefit you professionally, Dr. Conner,

by giving you a leg up on the other
researchers working in this field?

Objection. Overruled. My main concern is
saving lives.

But you have no compelling evidence your
findings will do that, do you?

Of course, I can't guarantee it. In
fact, it's just speculation on your

isn't it?

Technically, yes, but... Thank you.
Doctor, you knew the Rubin Foundation

established in memory of two Holocaust
victims. Why didn't you tell them you

were planning to use the Nazi data?

It never occurred to me.

The data's origins aren't important to
my research.

Its origins weren't important to you.

Tell me, Doctor, how many people were
exterminated in the Holocaust?

Objection. Relevance, Your Honor. Dr.
Conner.

claims to have balanced the data's Nazi
origins against the potential good it

may provide.

I'm trying to find out how much he
actually knows about those origins.

I'll give you some leeway here, Counsel,
but keep it brief.

Thank you.

Dr. Conner?

Six million people died in the
Holocaust.

Sixteen million, Doctor. Six million
were Jews.

Do you know what Baba Yar is?

No. It was the largest single act of
genocide of the war.

34 ,000 Jews slaughtered.

What about Kristallnacht?

No. Who conceived the final solution?

Adolf Hitler. Adolf Eichmann.

How can you have balanced the good
against the evil when you clearly have

idea of the enormity of that evil,
Doctor? The history of Nazism wasn't my

concern. Sixty million dead.

That's not your concern. I wasn't about
to become a Holocaust scholar just to do

a physiology study. It wasn't relevant.

You research everything else. Why not
this? Because you just didn't care?

Objection argumentative. Withdrawn.

I have nothing further.

Where

the hell

were you in there?

He has the right to question you.
Question me? He was haranguing me.

I didn't conduct those experiments,
Jonathan. I just want to study them. Any

more objections would have alienated the
jury, Emily, and implied you didn't

know the answers to his questions. Well,
obviously I didn't.

Did you?

No. It took me four years to get a grant
for this project.

I am not unsympathetic to Mr. Rubin's
feelings, but I do not intend to go back

to being a dog labber just because some
old man can't see the forest for the

trees.

I called Dr. Finkelstein.

I want that DNA test.

It'll only confirm what we already know,
Stuart. She is your daughter.

It's weird.

I was in that room, what, five minutes?

Most of which I spent telling myself she
was a fraud.

And this feeling keeps coming up.

It's the same feeling I had that day we
lost Kelsey.

What was the mother like?

She was nice.

Karen.

She was funny. She was smart.

Was she good in bed?

Yeah.

At that point in my life, if I got a
woman in bed, it was good.

Obviously, you didn't practice safe sex.

No. In 1974, safe sex meant not having
sex in a moving vehicle, okay?

Are you okay about this?

It's not the mother or your relationship
with her.

It's the idea that there is a stranger
out there that has some kind of claim on

you. She doesn't have a claim on me. She
gave up whatever claim she had when she

walked out that door.

She gave it up. Does that mean you can?

No.

No, I don't think so.

One of the SS men brought me into the
operating theatre.

Next to the table, there was a large
glass tank filled with water.

There was ice on the water.

They asked me if I would like to send a
message to my family.

Since they were all dead, I declined.

What happened then, Dr. Shaw?

I was...

stripped naked, then they lifted me into
the tank. The pain from the cold was

indescribable. After about 40 minutes, I
passed out.

And when you woke up? I was in a bed
with two other naked prisoners, put

to warm me with body heat. It was one of
several methods of re -warming that the

Nazis tested.

I was lucky I was not thrown into
boiling water.

Dr. Shulman, how do you feel about the
data from those experiments being used

Dr. Connor?

If it will save lives, it should be
used. God forgive you. Objection. If

is a God, may he let us both find peace.
There is no peace for those who betray

the dead. Mr. Rubin, that's enough.

Kurtz is gone.

Sir, why do you think the data should be
used?

What? Before I retired, I was a
pediatric surgeon. Like any doctor,

I had patients die, sometimes painfully.

But I used what I learned from their
deaths to help others.

If knowledge from Dachau can help other
human beings, then the

suffering of those who died there might
begin to have some meaning.

I have nothing else.

Doctor, how did the Nazis monitor your
body temperature?

They inserted a wire into my rectum and
another into my mouth.

Didn't the Nazis at one time consider
moving all experiments from Dachau?

Yes, they did.

Why? Because the screams from

the... Men and women who were being
experimented upon.

It was so loud that they disturbed the
families of the officers who were

stationed there.

Can you ever forgive the Nazis for what
they did?

No, never.

Can you really blame Mr. Rubin for
seeing Dr.

Conner's project as legitimizing what
the Nazis did? I appreciate his point of

view.

But we each of us have to make our own
decisions.

Thank you, Doctor.

No further questions.

Karen? Stuart.

Stuart Markowitz.

I thought you were dead.

Do I look that bad?

Mom, you know the car keys are... Oh,
God.

Mom is going to take a second mortgage
out on the house in order to pay for

college. I couldn't let her do that.

She's made too many sacrifices for me.

One more and she's up for candidation.

So you hired some low -rent lawyer who
wouldn't ask too many questions when you

told him your mother was dead.

I didn't want to, but I knew you'd never
go for the idea.

Yeah.

You were right.

So that's why you came to see me, for
the money?

I also wanted to meet you, I guess.

Mom told me your name.

She said you were a lawyer, so I... Just
checked with the state bar.

I wanted to know my father.

And why did you back out?

I didn't know you had a son.

Well, it wasn't until I saw you and your
wife in the meeting

that it actually hit me how much I was
disrupting your lives.

I just couldn't do it.

Wow.

Here's an interesting one.

A Viennese oyster.

The woman puts her feet behind her head.
I know it.

I thought you might.

Julie, these people are incredible.

I mean, sharing your sexual fantasies in
bed is one thing, but doing it in

public? You know what my favorite
fantasy is?

No. What?

I come home from the 11 o 'clock night
cast.

I slip into a hot bath.

I feel the water swirl and flow between
my legs.

I lean back, close my eyes.

I feel the water from the faucet caress
my ankle like a kiss.

And when I open my eyes, he's there,
crouched by the tub,

kissing the calf of my leg and slowly
working his way up.

My eyes meet his.

Julie, I can't. I can't. I'm sorry.

Why not?

Listen, you're a beautiful woman.

If we had met a year ago, you might have
been the greatest thing that ever

happened to me. I still can be.

I live with someone.

And I love her.

And I can't...

I won't hurt her.

God, that turns me on.

Julie. Look, I gotta go.

Arnie, what's wrong?

Oh, the pain.

It's like a knife.

What, did you hurt your back? Here, let
me... No, I'm fine. I'm okay.

Arnie, I'm not gonna rape you. Here, sit
down.

Arnie, where is this pain?

In my left testicle.

You know, I'm trying not to take this
personally, but it isn't easy.

Maybe it's just like a charley horse.

Maybe you just need to work it out.

No. No kidding.

Julie, I'm in real pain here. Well, we'd
better get you to a hospital. Can you

walk? I'm fine as long as it doesn't
touch the inside of my thigh.

Did you get my coat?

Who says romance is dead?

How are you feeling?

It hurts even when they're touching the
table.

Why don't you bend your knees? That way
you're not making contact.

Be careful.

Ernie? Rock. I called the studio. They
said that you were at her house and you

had an accident.

What the hell are you doing?

I'm just trying to make him more
comfortable.

I'll bet.

Rock, they don't know how this happened.
It might be a hernia. I may have

sprained a muscle in my groin.

You know, I'm probably not needed here
anymore.

You're going to be fine, Arnie.

Roxanne will take care of you.

This is a new one, even for you.

Rox, I swear, nothing happened. We were
just working.

At her house?

Mr. Becker, I'm Dr.

Stewart. I'm a urologist.

Rox, don't leave. Are you kidding? I'm
thinking of selling tickets.

Okay, now.

I'm going to have to palpate the area.

Just relax.

Does this hurt?

No. How about this?

Oh, yeah.

Mr. Becker, you have a torsion.

A man's testicles are suspended inside
the scrotal sac by the spermatic cords.

These cords can sometimes become
twisted.

How did it happen?

Any number of ways. A sharp, sudden
movement, slipping on a wet surface.

Don't worry, though. It's easily
correctable. We just go inside and

testes until the cord is untwisted.

You have to cut them open? Yes, but it's
only minor surgery. We give you a

spinal block to numb it, and then we go
in. But I do have to warn you, when the

cord becomes twisted, it can cut off the
flow of blood.

We could open it up to discover that the
testicle has turned gangrenous.

Gangrene? In that case, of course, we'd
have to remove it.

What?

Auschwitz, Dachau, Bergen -Belsen,
Treblinka.

16 million human lives.

That's the entire population of New York
and Los Angeles combined.

Imagine the city empty. Every human
being who lives here dead in the gas

chambers.

It's too much for us to take in.

We can't help abstracting it.

But that is the one thing we cannot do.
If someone like Sigmund Rascher proposed

doing his hideous experiments today,
society would never permit it.

So why is it all right to use it after
the atrocities have been committed?

What kind of deterrence?

does that pose to unethical researchers?

Dr. Conner signed a contract that
requires the use of ethical medical

Now, by using the Dachau experiments in
her work, she has violated those

standards, especially since she is
unable to show that the Dachau data is

compelling value.

First, we ignore the lessons of history.

Then we forget.

Then we repeat them.

Tell those who would draw comfort from
this.

We shall never forget.

Dr. Emily Connor,

is not a Nazi.

She abhors, as all of us do, the methods
by which this data was gained.

But the data is there.

And there are many respected scientists
who find it valid.

For her to ignore it is to ignore the
pain and suffering which she might be

to alleviate.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the
one thing she cannot do.

Dr. Stanley Shulin, a survivor of the
hypothermia experiments,

believes she should be allowed to try.

Mr. Rubin is a good man with a tragic
history.

His concern is understandable. Respect
what he has to say. It's important.

But give the situation the perspective
he can't.

Let Dr.

Connor honor the dead by honoring the
living.

Don't stand between her and the lives
she might be able to save.

What?

To Arnold, who brings new meaning to the
phrase, hoist on his own petard.

Well, at least the family jewels are as
good as new.

Better.

The doctor told me he tacked them down
while he was in there.

Tacked them down?

You know, sutured them to the inside of
the scrotum so they wouldn't get twisted

up again.

Mox, about Julie, I swear nothing
happened.

Only because you sprained your testicle.
No, no, even before that.

I admit I thought about it, okay?

But when push came to shove... So to
speak.

It was weird, Rox. For the first time in
my life, there was this... I don't

know, there was this, like, circuit
breaker inside of me, and it just

And I said no.

I couldn't believe it myself, so I know
how hard it is for you to believe, but I

swear it's true.

Okay.

Nothing happened.

You don't sound like you mean it.

Don't push it, Arnie.

I'm doing the best that I can.

If I'd hired you, Mr. Rollins, could you
have argued my case as convincingly?

I thought your side was very convincing.

The jury may too.

I don't expect them to.

Even Mr. Robertson thought we had a
tough case.

Why wouldn't you even discuss the
settlement?

How do you make a settlement with evil,
Mr. Rollins?

Each time you refuse to look it in the
face and say no more, it creeps a little

closer.

Do I have to tell this to you with your
people's history?

No.

When my father was told that he could no
longer teach at the university, he

stayed home and tutored.

When the students stopped coming, he
found work running errands.

When the Nazis came for our neighbors,
he comforted us by saying that sanity

must return if we could just wait it
out.

And when the Nazis finally ordered my
father to choose the next men to die at

Auschwitz,

I believe he understood at last, and he
killed himself.

I'm sorry.

I didn't come here just to win, Mr.
Rollins.

I came to... bring a warning.

You think anybody heard me?

Yeah.

I do.

The jury's in.

Has the jury reached a verdict?

Yes, we have, Your Honor. In the matter
of the Simon and Catherine Rubin

Foundation versus University of
California and Emily Conner, we find

defendants. Oh, thank God.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, thank
you for your service.

This court is adjourned.

So, what's the latest?

Well, I think I finally talked her into
letting me send Sarah to college for one

year. And then if that goes well, we'll
go on from there.

Unless you have a problem with it.

No. No, it's the right thing to do.

It's just hard to believe that this
Karen wouldn't have come to you for help

before. Well, it's not hard to believe
if you know her.

I mean, this is a woman who started her
own catering business. It goes belly up

in the recession. And she refuses to go
Chapter 11. She's going to pay off each

and every creditor. That's the way she
is.

It's admirable.

Not terribly realistic.

No, it's not.

So I told her, look, if you're
determined to go about it this way, at

me help you set up a more structured
schedule so she's gonna, you know, she's

gonna let me do that.

That's very nice of you.

I have to do something here, honey.

Absolutely. I understand.

She sounds like a very interesting
person.

You want to have them to dinner?

Why don't we have her and Sarah to
dinner next week?

I think it might be a little soon. She's
still getting used to the idea of

accepting help from me. I don't want to
push it.

Maybe down the line.

Okay.

Fine.

It's just hard to get used to the idea
that you have this entire family out

there that I'm not a part of.

Honey.

Oh, that could be Ned. He was going to
call.

Hello?

Oh, hi, Karen.

How you doing?

No, no, it's no problem at all. No
problem at all.

Yeah, I'm going to take care of it
tomorrow.

Yeah, well, Claremont does have more
individualized instruction, but I don't

think we should discount Stanford, you
know?

No, it's not that much more.

Hey, let me worry about the money, okay?

Okay.

Shalom.
