Hey, Kato, if you use the jacuzzi while I'm gone, make sure you turn it off,

okay?

Everything okay back there?

Yeah. Could you turn the AC up a bit, though?

It's kind of hot tonight.

Come here.

Come on, honey.

Come on.

Hey, are you lost, boy?

Come on. He's got blood all over his feet.

Have a nice flight. Thank you.

No parts.

Jake!

Hurry!

Where do you think he's going?

I don't know.

I'll tell you what, though. He definitely wants to take us someplace.

We should just... Call the pound, honey. I mean, he's a valuable dog. Somebody's

probably already reported him or something.

What? What?

Oh,

my God.

Oh, God, there's dead bodies.

All right, I'll get it.

Little boy in there

You carry him out. Make sure they don't go out through the front door.

Hi, sweetie.

Hi.

Don't be afraid, okay?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm coming back right now.

Sir, sir, I'm sorry. This is a crime scene. You can't come in here.

Well, what are the people doing in my house? I said you can't come in here,

Why can't I go in my own house? The people working inside, sir. Excuse me,

I'm sorry, sir. What are you doing?

Sorry, sir. You can't go inside.

But this is my house. What are you doing, man?

Just a precaution, Mr. Simpson.

Precaution for what?

What do you think I'm going to do?

What is this?

Did I miss something?

Is Mr. Simpson under arrest?

Hello, Howard.

No, he is not under arrest. I want those handcuffs off now.

Sure thing.

Listen, would you mind coming down to Park Center with us? I know it's a hell

a time.

He's not capable of discussing anything.

He's tired. He's distraught.

For God's sake, his ex -wife has just been murdered.

Oh, my.

Well, I do.

Look, I want to answer the questions, Howard.

I want to clear my name.

You don't need to clear your name. Tell you what.

Why don't we go downtown, and we'll talk about it there.

If you don't want to answer any questions, we'll drive you home.

Let's go.

was in Chicago at a business meeting when authorities notified him that his

-wife and young Ron Goldman had been brutally murdered.

You haven't had a wink of sleep. Howard, what's the matter with going in there

and telling these guys the truth?

May I talk to Mike Monroe for a moment? Sure, Tim.

I wonder if he's going to talk to us.

That is your answer.

If you don't mind,

There's this formality to dispense with.

Go right ahead.

You have the right to remain silent.

If you give up the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be

against you in a court of law.

You have the right to speak to an attorney and have an attorney present

questioning. If you so desire and cannot afford an attorney, one will be

appointed for you without charge before questioning.

Do you understand these rights?

Yes.

Does this mean I'm under arrest?

No, of course not.

Listen, these things, they're always kind of awkward.

I just wanted to say how sorry we are about your wife.

Yes, really very sorry.

Thank you.

Oh, did you cut your finger or something?

Yes.

How'd you do it?

I'm not really sure.

I was really busy last night getting ready for my trip to Chicago. I think I

it then.

Then I re -injured it in Chicago.

The guys called me and told me about the coal house.

Got upset and smashed a glass.

Stupid thing to do.

It's perfectly natural.

Shop like you've had.

If you ask me, you're holding up phenomenally well.

Well, as you know, O .J., do you mind if I call you that?

Yeah, that's what everybody calls me.

Better juice.

Good. Well, I'm Phil, and this is Tom.

Hi, John.

As you know, we've got two decedents.

Your former wife, Nicole, and a young man named Ronald Goldman.

They were killed with a knife.

I don't want to upset you, but it was a pretty brutal murder.

Somebody just couldn't stop himself.

You and Nicole are a pretty intense relationship.

Yes.

Even after you divorced?

That's right.

Saw me kind of thing?

Yeah.

Saw me, Dad.

AC, can you tell her, AC?

1 24th of a second.

Yeah, that part's not out. That's right. See, man comes up to tackle, juice

gives him this little move, and at 1 24th of a second, he's gone and out of

there.

Scientific fact.

See, that's who it is.

Just keep moving forward.

Lose your momentum, boom, they got you.

Hey,

do you think I have an odd -shaped head?

What's your name?

Nicole. I'm serious, Nicole.

When I went to training camp at Buffalo, they couldn't find a helmet big enough

for my head, so they had to get one for me. Is that right, AC? Is that correct?

Did you play football or something?

He's old, Jason.

Does that mean I'm supposed to know who you are?

Did you go out with a guy with an odd -shaped head?

I wouldn't go out with a guy who was married.

Oh, well, that's a separate issue.

We'll take one at a time.

Your head's not so weird.

Any problem with going out with a brother?

Yeah, I'm in a Ku Klux Klan.

Man, this shit is something else.

You guys want another round?

Oh, absolutely, yeah.

Hi, Nicole.

Would you be interested in seeing me play?

As in football?

Yeah. That's his football.

Hey,

what did you think? Ah, you lost.

You okay?

No, just a little sore.

Two days in the whirlpool and I'll be all right.

Simpson, excuse me.

I'm Kevin's mother.

This is Kevin, huh? Yeah.

All right.

How's it going, my man?

Fine.

This is so good of you, Mr. Simpson. I hope you're not too tired or anything.

Oh, just a little beat up.

I got clotheslined in the first half.

But I didn't want to miss a chance to get a good prospect.

So, Kevin, they tell me you want to toss the football around a little bit.

Yeah. Well, hey, let's get busy, huh?

Nicole, could you hold this for me?

Come on.

You play football, Kev?

No, I got thick.

What position?

Quarterback.

Quarterback?

Oh, I can tell by that strong passing arm you got.

So who's your favorite player?

I like you.

Now you talk.

Where'd you get that stutter stuff?

I guess I was born with it.

Just like you were born with that strong passing arm.

I like Franco Harris, too.

Franco can catch the ball, that's for sure.

I think Namus is a showboat.

He's a nice guy, though.

Really? Oh, yeah.

You all right?

Kip,

you know the difference between a lion back and a rhinoceros?

No, what?

A rhinoceros is better looking.

Come on.

That was nice of you.

What? That boy at the stadium.

It wouldn't be nice.

You're from Point Dana, right?

Dana Point.

How about a beach?

I bet you love to surf, don't you?

You know, you don't have to make conversations.

Hey.

You're married. Don't worry about that.

Don't worry about that.

It's almost over.

I don't think almost counts.

Oh, wait a minute.

Now, you don't look like the kind of girl that's got to go by every rule in

book. Well, I am.

You are? Mm -hmm.

I've got a feeling about you.

About me and me?

I've got a feeling, too.

Would you describe your divorce as amicable?

Yeah, so you weren't even just a little bit pissed with her?

Look, I came down here of my own free will to cooperate with you guys.

Now, you keep making accusations, I'm gone.

Nobody accused you of anything.

Can you give me an idea of where you were about 10 o 'clock last night, O

Police are saying tonight that O .J. is not a suspect at this time. Dream on.

Howard Weitzman, O .J.'s attorney, has... You've had a problem or two with

temper in the past, is that right?

I went to counseling for that. Good.

In 1989, you pled no contest to a charge of spousal... Why do you keep asking me

these questions?

Don't you guys understand how I'm feeling?

My wife just got killed. We know. And this other guy.

Ronald Goldman. Two people murdered. Now, I've told you I don't know anything

about it.

Now, I'm going to Nicole's parents' house to see my kids.

Sure thing.

Really appreciate this, O .J.

Really above and beyond the call.

Come in, RJ.

Hey, guys.

Good to see you.

Man, they choose.

Hey, Nancy.

So where you guys been?

Hey, Peter.

In the video, darling.

Oh, yeah?

What'd you get? Aladdin.

Aladdin? Again?

He's only seen it like 150 times already.

Mm -hmm.

Did you hear about Mommy?

I heard, honey.

You know she loves you two very much, don't you?

You went to heaven.

I know.

Citing his close personal relationship with O .J. Simpson and his many other

professional commitments, Howard Weitzman today stepped aside as O .J.

attorney. Meanwhile, more speculation that Weitzman will be replaced by yet

another well -known celebrity attorney, Robert Shapiro.

This is the big time, O .J.

This is the district attorney's make -or -break case.

He lost Rodney King. He lost Menendez. He is not going to let this happen

I want you to have one thing very clear in your mind.

This isn't just a murder case, O .J.

This is history.

I'm an innocent man.

There are no other suspects, O .J. This is all going to be about you.

You think you're a public figure now? Wait a few weeks. The media, the

attorney's office.

Everybody's going to be crawling through every corner of your life trying to

find out who you are.

So...

We might as well get started, too.

Who are you?

You were a pretty tough kid, weren't you?

Stay behind me and see.

Don't do anything till the fight starts.

What you guys need?

You stepped on my foot, man. What's wrong with you?

You did it, OJ. Cool.

You did it.

Man, AC, man. Save some for the party, man.

Man.

So, OJ, you gonna help me out or what?

What's your name again?

Marguerite.

Marguerite, you're missing out, girl.

That A .C. Cowlings is a dynamo of love.

Like that?

Yeah, like that, man.

A .C., why do you waste your time on girls who have to be talked into things?

Life's too short, man.

Besides, you only went out with her a few times.

Yeah. Yeah, like I said, you ain't seen her yet.

She is worth the extra effort.

Burt Lancaster.

Hey, you're the kid from Galileo High.

Mike, guess who we got?

Mr. 90 -yard touchdown.

It is not funny.

I almost wet my pants. The guy asked him for his autograph.

It was, like, no.

Well, he still took you down to Juvenile Hall. You boys want to tell me what's

so funny about that? What is so funny about stealing liquor?

It was wine.

It was for a party.

See, I'm on the refreshment committee.

That's your father.

You told him?

He said he was going to come over and beat some sense into you. He's pretty

at that.

Answer it.

O .J. Simpson?

Yeah. What's the O .J. stand for?

A rental jazz.

A rental.

I think I'd go by O .J. too.

You know who I am?

Yeah, you really may.

A friend of mine at Booker T. Washington said that I should meet you.

You, uh, want to go for a ride?

Get in.

Check it out, man.

The thing about candlestick, you can't predict it.

Ball's up in the air, headed right for your glove, then all of a sudden the

comes up and it's bouncing around like a ping -pong ball. You have to be a damn

aeronautical engineer to catch a ball in that stadium.

Sit down.

Want something to drink?

Orange juice.

You've got to be kidding.

Velma, O .J. here would like some O .J.

I'll have some, too. Yes, sir.

So what do you want out of life, Orenthal James?

I don't know.

I don't want to be somebody.

I want to be known.

I want people to say, hey, there's O .J. I want this.

My friend at Booker T. Washington says you're the greatest natural athlete he's

ever seen.

Thanks, Velma.

You'll have everything you want.

Big house, beautiful wife, special pass to live like the white folks.

No one will ever say no to you for one very simple reason. You can run fast

a football.

I say that's a pretty good deal, wouldn't you?

Yes, sir.

In my opinion, going to jail would be a big waste of your time.

Hi. Marguerite?

Yeah? I'm OJ.

AC asked me to come apologize.

Apologize for him?

Yeah, he didn't mean to stand you up.

See, uh, where's his fight?

He stood me up for a fight.

You want to go for a walk?

Yeah.

You could have come and apologized to me yourself.

You see, A .C. has a little stutter.

He thought I'd be a bit smoother.

You are a bit smoother.

A .C.'s a great football player.

Oh, mm -hmm. I saw the last game.

Oh, yeah?

What'd you think?

Well, A .C. made the holes and you ran through them.

I mean, you were the one everybody was watching.

Well, that's just human nature.

I mean, your eye naturally follows a guy carrying the ball.

You want to go for a drive?

Get out of here.

This isn't your car.

Actually, it belongs to this college recruiter I know.

He lets me use it on special occasions.

This a special occasion?

Get in.

Boy, it must be pretty nice having a car like this at your disposal.

It is pretty nice.

You know, if you didn't tell me you were so good looking, I guess maybe you

thought I'd steal you away.

As if you could.

How do you expect me to drive if you're sitting way over there?

Is that any better?

Some.

Would you mind if I kissed you?

I certainly do.

All the nerve.

What are you doing?

Hey, see, don't get excited, man.

We were just... Get out the car, man!

Hey, see, I don't want to fight you, man.

I said get out the car!

Come on!

Calm down a minute, all right? Yeah, AC, I'm sorry.

Be quiet.

Listen, man, let's go somewhere. Let's talk about it.

Everything, man.

You get everything.

I get nothing.

And it's not enough. But the little bit I get, you got to take that too, huh?

Willie, take it away. You never had me to begin with.

I decided. Be quiet.

No, you know what?

You be quiet.

Look, man, I'm sorry, all right?

What do you want me to do, huh?

Why don't you give her back, man?

Just give her back, all right?

You see, I would.

I would give her back, but I can't, man.

There's something there between her and me.

And we've been friends a long time. You gonna let something like this come

between us?

Hey, man, I owe you one.

What a million dollars.

That was good money back then.

Buffalo wanted me pretty bad, I guess.

And you married Marguerite.

A .T. must not have been too happy about that.

I tried to make it up to him. You've got a lot of friends, don't you?

I suppose.

Don't be modest. The whole country is your friend.

You've been a hero to a lot of people for a long time, Juice. That hasn't

changed. Remember that.

You're still the same guy you were back then in Buffalo, the guy everybody wants

to be.

Hey there,

Marguerite. Hey, Steve.

How you doing?

Oh,

it's good to see you. Good to see you. How are you doing? I

want

you to meet the newest member of the Buffalo Bills.

Number one draft choice. The best defense of linemen in pro football.

The one, the only, the phenomenal.

Al Cowley.

Hey, June, see you all, man. Check this out.

Hey, OJ's on medical care.

Is he a chromocytoma?

What's that, Doc?

That's a tumor of the adrenal gland.

Well, does that mean I won't be able to play this season?

Not just this season, I'm afraid.

What are you telling me, Doc? What I'm telling you is you're a sick man.

If you think you can just walk out onto that football field right now, well, you

can't. Not now. Maybe not ever.

Watch out, Steve McQueen.

Give me a chance. I'm just a rookie.

I hate to say it, man.

This team is rinky -dink.

I mean, I'm a running back, right?

I mean, I'm supposed to run.

I'm used to carrying the ball 25, 30 times a game. So what am I doing on a

passing offense?

Hey, Juice.

Great party, man.

Hey. Tell Marguerite thanks for me, all right? Sure will.

See you tomorrow at practice.

But you know what? We're going to turn that around.

We better.

That's right. I don't have no quarter million dollar endorsement with

And I don't have no movie contract.

It's because you're so ugly.

What was that all about?

Special delivery.

Hey.

Thanks for getting me on the team, Chief.

You were first -round draft choice.

All I dared to do was just whisper in Harv's ear, brother. Oh,

and who was this character?

This is Arnelle.

She can't sleep. I think she has an ear infection.

That is big girl got an ear infection?

Come here, come here.

Say hi to Uncle A .C.

Say hi to Uncle A .C.

Yeah. So how'd it do, baby?

You were good.

Oh, yeah? As good as Stephen Queen?

Yeah, I think so.

Oh, give me some sugar in that.

I'll tell you what, you're going to like it here in Buffalo.

It's the birthplace of Millard Fillmore.

Millard who?

You know, the cornerback from the Giants.

Stop it, O .J.

He was the president.

I knew that.

Of course, Marguerite, she loves Buffalo, too.

She won't live here, but she loves it.

Well, I might live here if he was ever home, but he always on the road, and

Arnell and I might as well stay in California. No, no, no, the point is

how much I'm going. The point is when I'm home, I want a home. Hey, I probably

ought to head over to the hotel. No, no, man, you stick around, man.

You know what you see, man?

Man, I was surprised how easy acting came to me, man.

What are these?

I mean, I think actors and running backs are both the same kind of people.

You both got big old egos.

These are not mine.

You opening my mail? O .J., whose are these?

It's from a fan.

Look, baby, don't sweat it. Things come in the mail, all right? There's no stamp

on this.

Then there must be posters doing it.

No, no, no, no, no.

Hey, hey, hey, stop. No, you're not going anywhere.

No, come back.

Look, baby, those panties were from some anonymous donor, okay?

Hey, see, look at that envelope, man, and see if there's a return address on

there.

No.

I don't know her. I never met her.

Look, the only woman in my life is sitting right here on this sofa right

Hey, listen to me.

Will you listen to me?

Let go of my arm.

Hey, I'm going to head over to the hotel, all right?

Hey, you're a stand -up guy, brother.

Was Nicole one of the pressures she couldn't handle?

Here you go.

Maybe. Who needed the pole, man?

People change, you know?

People need different things at different times in their lives.

See, when a football player starts to come towards the end of his career, he

gets kind of nervous.

He needs people who have faith in him.

The absence is our problem.

There's no doubt about that.

When you say so, baby.

A definite problem.

Marguerite, how is O .J. as a father?

Oh, he's a wonderful father.

He loves the children.

Arnelle? Jason?

Keep an eye on Aaron now.

Marguerite, do you ever worry that with all of the beautiful women that are seen

at the football field... I'll get some more dip.

Thanks for more iced tea? No, thanks.

You know, I heard a quote once. Let me see if I can remember it.

Fame is a vapor.

Popularity is an accident.

And money takes wings.

The only thing that endures is carrot.

What are you doing?

Get back out there. You get back out there. Marguerite, you want to talk to

of us? Well, I don't want to talk about it anymore.

Yes, the frequent absences are a problem.

Yes, his little white blonde girlfriend that he parades with around for the

whole world if he does create an unusual strain on his marriage. Hey, don't you

blame her for the strain on our marriage? Don't you blame me either.

I wanted a home, but you wouldn't give me one. You never wanted a home. You

wanted a house that you could breathe in and out of every few months. And if

everything wasn't exactly the way you wanted it, you were terrified.

Terrified? What the hell do you call terrified?

OJ, when things aren't perfect, you are. You're here to die.

It's a bull. It's a two -foot. It's true, OJ.

I know you. You don't know yourself.

All you know is that you are the greatest human being to ever walk on the

of this earth because that is all anybody's ever wanted to tell you.

You wouldn't want to forget to dip.

This is off the record, right?

I'm shaking, I'm shaking. How you doing, man?

You like 12, 15 from the floor the other night? Let's just somebody else shoot

the ball, man.

All right? Hey, what's up, baby? I voted for you, man. You look good in there,

okay? All right, you got it.

You're kidding.

That meal we just had?

$25 ,000 a plate?

Don't act so shocked.

I thought you liked expensive things.

Besides, it's for a worthy cause.

$25 ,000 for one meal.

Do you know what you could buy with that?

What would you buy for that?

Ferrari.

What color?

Are you serious?

What is it?

I took a hit today in practice.

I was shaking it off a couple of years ago.

I'm not hitting the holes like I used to either.

Look, if I tell you something, you won't laugh, will you?

I think I can win an Oscar.

You're a great actor. You were great in Capricorn One.

I know Dustin Hoffman. I know that. But if I get the right part, I can win an

Oscar.

I bet that you will win an Oscar before I'm through with college.

College? Uh -huh.

I'm going back in the fall.

That's not necessary.

I mean, you don't have to go to college to be a photographer.

Maybe not, but I want to.

Oh, you want to?

We'll talk about it later.

What do you mean, we'll talk about it later?

What's there to talk about?

Marguerite and I are getting a divorce.

This is not a casual relationship, Nicole.

I've had those. I know how they feel.

This is different.

I mean, this, this is it.

I mean, we're each other's destiny.

You realize that, don't you?

Mm -hmm.

So let's forget about college.

I can hire a photographer to teach you whatever you need to know. I'll buy all

the cameras and stuff you need.

But let's just say it again.

Okay. Dr.

Travers, 4721.

Dr. Travers.

Excuse me, Doc. Excuse me.

I'm OJ Simpson.

I got a call about my daughter, Erin Simpson.

Mr. Simpson, I'm Dr. Bernie.

Let's step over here for a minute. No, Doc. Tell me right here.

Tell me.

Erin died, Mr. Simpson.

I'm sorry. She never came out of her coma.

She was only underwater a very short time before your wife found her. She did

it.

She did it.

Afraid to go to sleep.

Afraid I'll dream about Aaron.

I can't stop thinking about her.

All alone in that pool.

There's no way to change any of that, O .J.

You know why I wore a short -sleeved jersey all these years?

Even in the wintertime.

Because I could feel the tacklers that way.

Hairs on my arms like cat whiskers.

I'd be running along looking for daylight.

I'd get the sensation.

I couldn't see him.

I couldn't hear him.

Oh, I could feel him.

The hairs on my arms are just a quiver.

I can't feel things that way anymore.

I don't know what's coming upon me, you know?

Who's after me?

Nobody's after you, O .J.

Something is.

Something's after me.

All right. The murders took place, according to the police, at between 10

and 10 .55.

Where were you during that time? I was at home.

We've got to prove that. I didn't do it.

We've got to prove you didn't do it.

Don't worry about them.

You worry about yourself.

I can't take you.

You can shake these guys.

Isn't that what you used to do for a living? Shaking guys off.

I'm not going to tell you there aren't people out to get you.

But you've got to put them out of your mind and do what you're good at.

Run for daylight.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

You know, no matter how fast you can run, no matter how far you can throw a

football, you don't win an award like this on your own.

Nicole, babe, my wonderful wife.

You came into my life at what is probably the most difficult time for an

athlete.

at the end of my career.

You made what should have been an ending into a beginning.

So I just want to say to you, I love you, Nicole.

You're my world.

Did you make an appointment with Jose Bear?

No, is there something wrong with my hair?

No, are you kidding? Your hair is incredible.

Just that I saw this model and she had been to Jose Bear's.

What model?

I don't know what model.

The point is, her hair was fabulous.

And she'd been to this guy's place, that's all.

You packed yet?

I haven't decided if I'm going. You haven't decided?

Honey, I told the guy, I told the board of directors that you were going to come

in, and they got a suite for us.

Well, there's this class that I'm taking.

What class?

Interior decorating.

Interior decorating? What happened to photography?

I don't know. I just, I got interested in interior decorating.

Well, Nicole, you're changing gears on me here, baby. You know, I thought it

photography.

I don't understand, O .J. If I get interested in something... Oh, cool. All

right. No problem.

Just that, you know, it seems to me you can miss one class.

I don't want to.

I mean, it's not like they're going to expel you.

Where are you going?

I told you, class.

What are you going to do, stop me?

Okay.

What are you doing?

Stop it.

OJ. What are you doing?

Please. Why are you doing this?

OJ.

Don't. Please.

Stop.

Go ahead.

Drop the glass.

Take my man and get a little service around here, huh?

Hey, what's up, dude? You got it? How you doing?

What's up, babe? What's up?

A .C.

What's up?

You happy with your house, man?

My house?

Yeah.

What?

So you happy with the color scheme and the furniture and stuff?

My color scheme?

Yeah. You know I ain't got no color scheme juice.

Well, then you ought to think about redoing it then.

Redoing it?

Yeah.

Would you mind if I, uh, if I sent Nicole by there and let us, you know,

what she thinks?

You know, try a few ideas out and stuff.

No problem.

She's in this redecorating phase.

Anyway,

I thought if I get a few clients for her, she wouldn't have to do it

professionally and wouldn't be with her family too much.

I'll give you a good deal, too.

Yeah, let me think about it.

You know, I'm...

More in love with that woman every day?

Can you explain that?

No.

I'll be a basket case if you ever left me, man.

Complete basket case.

It says here Nicole called 911 nine times between 1985 and 1993.

Still, we had a few disagreements. I don't think the prosecution will think

these incidents are a little spacked.

Oh, come on.

I didn't mean to say that. It's a perfectly good role.

Look, I know it's not a fellow, Nicole.

All right?

It's a comedy.

Better be a comedy with a title like The Naked Gun.

So what's the problem?

No problem.

If you're happy with it, I'm happy with it.

Just... Just what?

Never mind.

What?

Just don't expect to win an Oscar for it.

You don't believe in me?

Is that what you're saying?

Let's just go to bed, okay, O .J.? Do you have any idea how hard it is for me

get the part you think I should be playing? I'm sorry.

Look, I am sure that it'll be a very funny movie and it'll do all sorts of

things for you as a comedy actor. Shut up!

You shut up.

I was just trying to apologize.

He came on you, didn't he?

Who? Who?

The dentist.

At that party.

He wasn't a dentist. He was a maxillofacial surgeon.

You plan on doing it with him?

Oh, you want to talk about fidelity?

I don't think that's a can of worms that you want to open up right now.

I ain't got no secrets from you.

Oh, that's an interesting way of putting it.

If it's not a secret, I suppose that makes it all right, huh? I'm going to

out of my face. Does the same hold true for me? So if I want to go out and find

myself a great -looking...

Where you going?

Come here.

Where you going?

Come here.

You disrespect me?

Get off that damn phone. Give me that damn phone.

Yeah.

Come back here.

Come back here.

Yeah.

I'll show you.

I'll show you.

Open it.

Open the door.

Open it.

Come on now. I'm sorry. All right.

Look, I'm sorry.

Calm down. Yes. This is Nicole.

Simpson. Address?

360 Rockingham Drive. 360 Rockingham. Please send somebody right away.

He's going to kill me.

Who's going to kill you?

Ma 'am. Ma 'am, are you still there? I didn't mean to. Are you okay?

Ma 'am.

He's going to kill me.

Are you Mr. Simpson?

He's going to kill me. Take it easy now. Take it easy.

He's going to kill me.

He's going to kill me.

He's going to kill me.

And he did this to you? Yes, he did this to me.

I want you to arrest him.

Get him out of that house. I want my kids.

You guys have been out here eight times. You never do anything. All right, all

right. Calm down. I don't want that woman in my bed anymore.

Do you hear me?

Stop. Stop right there, Mr. Thompson.

I must tell you, at this time, I'm going to have to place you under arrest.

Arrest?

Hey, hey, hey. Look, why are you making a big deal out of this, man?

It's a family matter, officer. You got family?

Yes, sir, I do.

All right. Look, I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry about this, all right?

Look, I don't mean to get you guys involved in my personal problems, all

What Nicole and I need at this point in time, I think, you know, is some

counseling. Sir, I think that would be a very good idea.

But I'm required under law to place you under arrest. Do you understand?

All right, baby.

But, uh, let me go in and get dressed. Get changed. I'll get dressed. Get some

clothes on.

Just give me a minute, man, all right?

Get dressed.

Okay, but hurry.

Mrs.

Simpson, we'd like you to come down to the stage.

Take a few photographs.

Look, considering the fact that you resisted arrest, some people would say

a slap on the wrist.

$700 fine, 120 hours community service. Hell, you'd be doing that anyway, some

counseling. Counseling? Take the counseling very seriously, O .J. We

this happening again. No, it's not going to happen again.

It can't. You want to bet?

Why wouldn't it happen again?

It's not like anybody's punishing me for it.

It's not like a big, strong football player is going to jail for pounding his

wife with his fist. Come on, O .J.

You know what?

Maybe you shouldn't even get a fine.

Maybe you shouldn't even have to do community service.

Maybe you should just give us all your autograph and call it even.

I'm telling you, man, I spent so much time in the sand trap this weekend, I'm

thinking about changing my name to Orymple of Arabia.

O .J., you know how proud we are to have you with the company.

Thanks, Ed. I appreciate it.

Your endorsement gives a company like ours a lot of exposure and more than

credibility. You're a man the whole country looks up to.

Yeah, legend of gold.

So about that 9 -1 -1 thing.

Let me explain that, all right?

Nicole and I are both pretty strong -willed people.

And that night, you know, I hate to admit it, but we both had a little bit

much to drink, more than we should have been. I mean, it's New Year's Eve and

everything, but...

Anyway, we have a little disagreement.

It escalates into a shouting match. We start wrestling.

The police come.

They think it's best that we separate.

So they take me into custody. For a while.

To be honest, it was more my fault than it was hers.

I'd like to know where you stand with all this.

Legally.

Oh, there was a small fight.

Some community service.

A little counseling.

Which I talked him into letting me do over the phone.

I didn't want to miss any company meetings.

Look, if this in any way... No, of course not.

I mean, because I don't want to embarrass you guys.

Hey, I was just telling Ed here about our wrestling match.

Oh, you didn't.

How embarrassing.

Well, I guess you know all our little secrets now. Don't be silly.

Really, it was blown way out of proportion.

And OJ and I are...

Still very happily married and very much in love.

Amen.

Go to sleep, children.

Stay good, boy.

Promise me I'll go to the pool. Okay.

I love you.

See you in a moment.

Okay. Good night.

You have such a good mother.

I love that pair.

Just the way my mother taught it to me.

That's beautiful.

Just make sure they learn it in English.

Everybody loves O .J.

Everybody looks up to him.

And I've got this great life, you know. I mean, I have two beautiful kids.

Plenty of money, great house, great cars, great trips, great everything.

Couldn't be happier.

How long has this been going on?

A long time.

Beating, kicking, screaming at you.

Yes.

Are you afraid?

Nicole.

Are you afraid?

Yes.

Then you've got to get away from him immediately.

Today.

If I could just... Sometimes when he...

He's so sweet to me. The man you're describing to me is not a sweetheart.

You've got to get away from him.

I can't.

Why not?

It's complicated.

I love him.

Try again, Nicole.

I need him.

What?

I'm ready for Maui.

Aren't you?

Remember last year when we were playing golf on that course?

Damn whales are jumping out of the water, I'm sure.

Yeah.

Deal.

Is that better?

Yeah.

I want to take a kiss on one of those whale -watching boats.

You know, other than that, you know, I don't want to make any plans to lay

around the beach and...

Will you stop telling it for a minute?

I'm going to divorce you, O .J. Don't do this to me.

I love you, Nicole.

Well, I'm afraid of you.

Afraid of you?

You don't have any reason in the world to be afraid of me.

As long as I can believe you love me, no reason in the world.

I'm not going to punish you over the kids.

They need their father.

You can see them any time that you want.

But I want a fair settlement, and I'm going to get it.

No, I think you know.

She'll live without you. You know that.

Nicole, no!

Did you ever threaten her?

I said a lot of things I didn't mean.

You're married, right?

Sure.

Then you know how it is.

I just...

It's time to get ready, man.

Oh.

I'm going to go on ahead and make sure there's nobody there who doesn't belong.

You're going to be there with the kids, right?

Right, yeah.

I'll see you later, Bob.

Juice.

I'll get you a Jason.

You should expect to be arrested probably in a few days.

I thought you were supposed to keep that from happening.

We don't know everything they found, but it's a good bet they're feeling cocky

enough to charge you.

They can't put me in jail.

They can't do that. You need to prepare yourself mentally.

They can't do that to me.

That's me.

It's nice that Kardash seems to let us stay here.

The mob's good people, man.

Yeah.

Nobody knows we're here. Not the media, nobody.

We'll finally get some rest in there.

Place has got everything you need.

I'm just going to be down the hall, all right?

Try to get some rest.

All right.

Hey, uh, you let me know as soon as Shapiro calls, okay?

Yeah. Got it.

I get some rest.

Thank you.

a professional opinion on some of O .J.'s potential legal troubles, we turn

our legal analyst, Professor Creighton Ford.

Creighton, based on the evidence to date, what do you say? Guilty or

Ron, you ought to know better than to ask an old trial lawyer a question like

that. Every piece of evidence we've seen increasingly points to just one

suspect. O .J. was jealous of Nicole's involvement with other men and the

physical evidence, a bloody glove that might be used against him. Did he do it?

We can't answer that now, because the more we learn about O .J. Simpson, the

more unknowable he becomes.

This is a rather narrow sofa.

So?

And not a whole lot of wiggling room.

Well, how much wiggling do you plan on doing?

What's your name?

Dan.

Dan.

O .J. Simpson.

If you two want to be...

I have to leave.

You okay?

Yeah, fine.

You just have to go.

Open it!

Just calm down. I have tried and tried to get back together with you.

Are the kids up there? Yes, they are.

9 -1 -1, emergency. Hello.

Can you send someone over here right away, please? What's the emergency?

My ex -husband just broke in, and now he's... Okay, what's his name?

O .J. Simpson.

Is he the sportscaster or whatever? Yes, that's right.

Has he threatened you? I think you know his record.

What are you doing in that, Nicole?

You're calling 9 -1 -1?

Okay, what are you doing? I'm sending police.

The more the day, I'll marry you.

Maybe you can do it in two.

OJ, please. The kids, they're sleeping.

Nicole. Send someone over here. He's ranting and raving.

Ranting and raving?

Do you hear that 911?

Is that him in the background?

Is he still yelling at you?

Is that him?

Nicole.

Yes, he's still yelling.

Okay. Please, hurry.

I'm the one whose wife turned into a hooker right in front of his eyes.

Over this damn door.

Do you think he's going to hit you, Nicole?

Over this damn door.

Over this damn door.

I don't know what he's going to do to me. Come in my house and disrespect me?

Bring someone, somebody in my house.

I woke my ass up for this family.

You don't have no respect for me.

None. None.

You ain't got no respect for me.

I give all I got to this family.

I'm Pepe Americano Grande.

You do that so well. Have you ever thought of becoming a waiter?

So, um, what do you think? Are you going to go with me to the gate on Friday?

See, now I know what you're thinking.

If I go on a date with you, then maybe I'll let you drive my Ferrari again.

Oh, come on, Nicole. That is only part of the attraction here.

Well, I'm too old for you.

Oh, come on. Did you hear me proposing marriage?

I'm just talking about going dancing, right?

What is it?

I gotta go. No, no, no, just stay there.

I'll see you later.

Hanging out with the guys, huh?

Stop it, O .J., okay? Just stop it. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Hey, look.

Look what I got you.

It's flattened.

So, uh, what time is Sidney's recital Sunday?

Five. Is she excited?

Yeah.

Hey, why don't we go all together, you know? I mean, we could go out and eat

after that, huh?

I'm already doing that with my family.

Oh, hey, I'd love to see your family.

It'd be nice.

I don't want you to be there.

I can't live with you anymore, O .J. I can't be around you anymore. I can't be

afraid of you anymore. Do you understand that? Hold on.

All right.

So we had a few temporary setbacks, okay?

But every marriage goes through... This isn't a marriage anymore, O .J. It's

over. I'm giving you another chance. No!

Have you ever heard that word in your entire life before, O .J.? Well, I'm

saying it to you now.

You can't always have everything that you want.

The answer is no.

Hello, Terry.

This is O .J. Simpson.

That's right.

Well, sort of famous, yeah.

Listen, I, uh, was going through this magazine the other day, and I came

your pictorial, and I couldn't keep my eyes off of it.

Well, I know this is a little strange.

Well, how do you think I feel? I'm calling up a total, uh, complete

you know?

Well, I got your number from a friend of mine.

Well, he's in the magazine business, yeah.

Well, no, he will remain nameless, okay?

Well, anyway, I got this crazy idea, all right? This crazy, wild idea that I'd

like to take you out to dinner.

Seriously?

You would?

Hey, I was thinking about tonight.

Yeah, I should have known about this area code here.

So how long do you plan on being in Texas?

Uh -huh.

Uh -huh.

Hey, look, I got another crazy idea, okay? Check this out. Why don't you hop

a plane and come on out here now?

Yeah, tonight.

No, no, no, I'm serious.

Terry, I want you here tonight.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm just going and I feel

like I'm ducking.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, midlife crisis. It could be.

Well, you know about midlife crisis.

Thank you.

Beth Luna.

Yeah, hi.

Yeah, sure, he's right here.

Ron.

Nicole. Hi,

Nicole.

Well, if I bring them down, are you going to let me drive your Ferrari

A cappuccino.

You're so generous, Nicole.

Yeah. Okay, I'll be right there. Bye.

Have you seen a pair of glasses around here somewhere?

Yeah.

My good deed for the day.

See you later.

O .J., well, I brought Dr.

Fairstein, Dr.

Heisinger with me. I'd like him to check you out, if you don't mind.

Can we do it later?

No. I want to do it now. I want to get a professional assessment.

Assessment for what?

They're going to arrest you.

We've got a gentleman's agreement that you'll be allowed to turn yourself in as

long as we can get you there by 11 o 'clock this morning.

What are they charging me with?

I have the complaint here.

So how soon do we have to leave?

Soon as Dr.

Fairstein and Dr.

Heisinger have examined you.

We don't want to be late.

Can I have a minute?

I want to write a letter.

All I'm asking for is a little more time. The man's distraught.

He wants to write letters, and I want to have him examined.

Give me an hour. Half an hour.

All right.

All right. If that's the way it has to be, I'll get him ready.

Chief.

What?

Mr. Simpson, in agreement with his attorney, is scheduled to surrender

this morning to the Los Angeles Police Department.

Mr. Simpson has not appeared.

The Los Angeles Police Department right now is actively searching for Mr.

Simpson. The Los Angeles Police Department is also very unhappy with the

activity surrounding its failure to surrender.

This is really insane.

What are we doing?

Just keep driving.

You okay back there?

Yeah.

You want to talk about it?

No.

Playoffs, right?

You want to listen to the playoffs?

OJ, wherever you are, for the sake of your family, for the sake of your

children, surrender immediately.

District Attorney Garcetti, I want to say something to the entire community.

If you in any way are assisting Mr. Simpson in avoiding justice, you are

committing a felony.

Think about it.

I guarantee you, there is evidence that you have assisted Mr. Simpson in any way

to avoid arrest.

Why don't you let me take you home, Drew?

There's going to be police everywhere, man. There's an APB out on you. Turn the

car around. Why don't you just let me take you someplace where you can just

out? Turn the damn car around!

Oh, man, why you got to do that?

Cole and I had a good life together.

All this press talk about a rocky relationship was no more than what every

-term relationship experiences.

I want to send my love and thanks to all my friends. I'm sorry I can't name

every one of you, especially A .C., man.

Thanks for being in my life.

That was an excerpt from the note left by O .J. Simpson.

So the juice is on the loose. The man who was a football legend for his

to evade pursuit has now evaded it once again.

You're making things pretty difficult for me, man.

Let me do it.

I want to be with Nicole.

Put the gun down, all right?

Think about your kids.

Think about your friends, man.

Feel that wind?

I'm glad I met you, son.

Thanks.

Nice to have faith in the next generation.

Kind of makes you feel like... I don't know.

Stop me if this starts to sound like a lecture, okay?

Okay.

I heard this statement once.

Fame is a vapor.

Popularity is an accident.

And money takes wings.

The only thing that endures is carrot.

I want to go home.

Huh, Tim? Is that it?

I don't know.

Chris, it's Tim. It's Tim. It's O .J. and the other guy.

Wait. We just saw O .J.

Yeah, he's on the five.

Going north.

Yes, I'm sure.

Police stop.

I'm going to do it, AC.

I'm going to do it this time.

You tell them to back off.

This is AC.

AC College, you idiot. You know who I am.

They got O .J. in the car with me. He's still alive.

We're coming up to five. All we're trying to do is get back to his house.

They're going to clear the way for us, man.

I'm going to get you home, all right?

You're still with me, right?

Yeah, I'm with you.

Meanwhile, the search for evidence continues, even as DeJuice makes his

journey down the freeway.

Police have acknowledged that blood samples were recovered from the

of O .J.'s car and that clothing and shoes seized from his home are being

examined to see if they can be used to place him at the crime scene.

And now let's go to the phones.

Frank from Costa Mesa, you're on the air.

Uh, yeah. I just want to say we love you, Juice.

Don't do anything stupid, my man.

Okay.

Kim, we're mission hills.

O .J., I'm asking you in God's name to give yourself up to the police. If

innocent, you have nothing to fear. If you're guilty, God's love will take you.

Yeah, how you see here?

Thank you, Kim.

Go ahead, Bob, in Silver Lake.

My son has these O .J. Simpson trading cards. Aren't they worth anything?

Juice,

it's for you, man.

Yeah. OJ.

Fuganella.

Yeah.

Feeling okay out there?

I don't know.

One of those days, huh?

Yeah, it's one of those days.

I'm on my way over to your house.

Am I gonna see you there?

I didn't kill anyone.

We can talk about that later, okay?

All the time in the world.

I'm watching it on TV.

Something, isn't it?

All

right,

now, you should see them entering your frame now.

The lights are flashing, and he is making a left -hand turn.

We're seeing the street jam with media, police, onlookers waving signs and

cheering as the robber approaches the side street leading to the driveway of

friend's mansion.

So it looks like this will come to an end right here on the grounds of his

estate. The police are attempting to clear a path for the robber to enter the

driveway.

And I think we have it. There it comes.

It's coming up the driveway.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, they're blocking off the street.

The white Bronco is now coming.

Yes, a couple of stops.

The entire house is surrounded by Los Angeles Police SWAT team.

I can see the boys on the roof. No one has yet emerged from the car.

Well, as you can see, O .J. Simpson has finally come home.

Hold on, all right?

Just stay calm.

Could you please tell these people to get out of the way? You're the one who's

in the way, A .C.

Now come on in the house. We want to talk to O .J.

This man has a gun to his head. We understand that. You're not helping, A

You think you are, but you're not.

What do you know about it?

He's my best friend, damn it.

Now listen to me, man.

I'm going to go inside now.

They say I'm in the way out here.

Come inside with me.

This is me.

Yeah.

This is who I am.

Isn't it?

Yeah, Juice.

That's who you are.

You promise?

Huh?

You're a stand -up guy?

What was it about?

It's about some other dude, all right?

Some other guy.

I'm losing ground, AC.

Losing momentum, man.

You've been losing momentum for a long time, Juice.

You just didn't realize it because nobody wanted to stop Fury.

Do me a favor and talk to these guys.

Hello.

It's getting late, O .J.

We'd like to wrap this up.

You hear me?

Not holding a gun!

That's a picture of his family!

No one's going to hurt you, O .J.

Relax.

Come on, O .J.

Come on, he's doing fine.

Everything's cool.

That's it.

Come on.

Feel about you, Nicole.

Feel about you, Ann.

I got a feeling, too.

Hey,

man, I owe you one.

I mean,

we're each other's best.

Sorry to put you guys through all this trouble.

Hey, man, no problem.
