I'll learn it as I go. 352 00:33:59,948 --> 00:34:02,033 - Learn as you go? - Yeah, yeah. 353 00:34:02,034 --> 00:34:05,536 - Didn't they teach that in law school? - No, they didn't. 354 00:34:05,537 --> 00:34:09,832 They teach you contracts, precedence, interpretations. 355 00:34:09,833 --> 00:34:13,210 Then the firm that hires you, they teach you procedures. 356 00:34:13,211 --> 00:34:18,011 - Or you can go to court and watch. - So why don't you go to court and watch? 357 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:23,596 Because, between your father's garage and working nights, when was I supposed to go? 358 00:34:23,597 --> 00:34:27,266 I thought this summer I would take off a couple of months. 359 00:34:27,267 --> 00:34:29,977 But it ain't no big deal. 360 00:34:29,978 --> 00:34:33,431 - Are you sure? - Yes, I'm sure. 361 00:34:34,858 --> 00:34:39,028 How can you be so sure when you don't know what it is you're supposed to know? 362 00:34:39,029 --> 00:34:43,366 It's a procedure. Like rebuilding a carburettor has a procedure. 363 00:34:43,367 --> 00:34:48,167 You know how the first thing you do is you take the carburettor off the manifold? 364 00:34:48,413 --> 00:34:53,213 Suppose you skip the first step, and as you're replacing one of the jets, you drop the jet. 365 00:34:54,044 --> 00:34:58,005 It goes down, rolls along the manifold and into the head. You're fucked. 366 00:34:58,006 --> 00:35:01,884 You've learned the hard way that you gotta remove the carburettor first. 367 00:35:01,885 --> 00:35:04,929 That's what happened to me today. I learned the hard way. 368 00:35:04,930 --> 00:35:08,057 Actually, it was a good learning experience for me. 369 00:35:08,058 --> 00:35:12,478 All right. Well, is there any way I could help out in this procedure situation? 370 00:35:12,479 --> 00:35:14,830 Yeah. Keep bailing me out. 371 00:35:15,399 --> 00:35:19,985 We can't afford to keep bailing you out. I've cashed in half the traveller's cheques. 372 00:35:19,986 --> 00:35:23,322 I didn't wanna cash 'em in, but I didn't wanna bounce a cheque. 373 00:35:23,323 --> 00:35:26,575 I tried hustling the money, but I got stiffed, so I cashed... 374 00:35:26,576 --> 00:35:31,376 Whoa, whoa. What do you mean, you got stiffed? Did you say you got stiffed? 375 00:36:22,257 --> 00:36:25,087 Hey.

Here's my counteroffer. 389 00:37:15,686 --> 00:37:20,486 Do I have to kill you? What if I was just to kick the everlovin' shit outta you? 390 00:37:21,066 --> 00:37:24,485 - In your dreams. - No, no, no. In reality. 391 00:37:24,486 --> 00:37:28,514 If I was to kick the shit outta you, do I get the money? 392 00:37:32,953 --> 00:37:35,371 - If you kicked the shit outta me? - Yeah. 393 00:37:35,372 --> 00:37:38,298 Yeah, then you get the money. 394 00:37:40,127 --> 00:37:44,204 - What happened? Rear-ended? - No, I fell. 395 00:37:45,716 --> 00:37:48,843 OK. Let's see if we agree on the terms. 396 00:37:48,844 --> 00:37:52,096 The choice now is I get my ass kicked 397 00:37:52,097 --> 00:37:56,897 or, option B, I kick your ass and collect the 200. 398 00:37:59,771 --> 00:38:04,424 I'm going with option B. Kicking your ass and collecting $200. 399 00:38:05,736 --> 00:38:09,363 - Are we gonna fight now? - Yeah. First, let me see the money. 400 00:38:09,364 --> 00:38:13,010 - I have the money. - All right. Let me see it. Show it to me. 401 00:38:13,952 --> 00:38:16,912 - I can get it. - You can get it? 402 00:38:16,913 --> 00:38:18,998 All right. Get it. 403 00:38:18,999 --> 00:38:21,301 And then we'll fight. 404 00:38:26,465 --> 00:38:28,841 You fell in your place or somebody else's? 405 00:38:28,842 --> 00:38:31,672 - My place. - Shit. 406 00:38:35,057 --> 00:38:38,100 He blew the arraignment. It's a simple procedure. 407 00:38:38,101 --> 00:38:42,188 You heard the judge. All he had to do was say "guilty" or "not guilty". 408 00:38:42,189 --> 00:38:44,538 So? What are you saying? 409 00:38:44,775 --> 00:38:49,575 What am I saying? You saw what happened in there. You wanna stay with him after that? 410 00:38:50,113 --> 00:38:52,615 Shit, Stan.

But should you die for that? 413 00:39:00,916 --> 00:39:04,293 Wouldn't your mother be more upset if you die? 414 00:39:04,294 --> 00:39:07,922 The thing is, given the chance, I think he could do a good job. 415 00:39:07,923 --> 00:39:12,336 - No, you're wrong. - Come on, fellas, knock it off. Let's go. 416 00:39:13,845 --> 00:39:16,847 Stan, listen. You have to see the Gambinis in action. 417 00:39:16,848 --> 00:39:20,267 These people, they love to argue.

He did his act, and every time he made something disappear, Vinny jumped on him. 583 00:52:54,750 --> 00:52:58,461 He nailed him. It was like "It's in his pocket" or "He's palming it." 584 00:52:58,462 --> 00:53:00,755 Or "There's a mirror under the table." 585 00:53:00,756 --> 00:53:05,176 He was like "Wait. It's joined in the middle and there's a spring around it." 586 00:53:05,177 --> 00:53:07,970 "It pops it open when it's inside the tube." 587 00:53:07,971 --> 00:53:11,712 It was like Ali Kazam's worst nightmare. 588 00:53:11,975 --> 00:53:14,143 But he was just being Vinny. 589 00:53:14,144 --> 00:53:17,838 He was just being the quintessential Gambini. 590 00:53:27,908 --> 00:53:31,265 There goes the quintessential Norton. 591 00:53:34,623 --> 00:53:36,972 Lookee here, JT. 592 00:53:44,216 --> 00:53:48,244 Hey, hey, little Yankee boy.

You'd be a good litigator." 614 00:56:42,644 --> 00:56:47,444 I don't know what the hell he was talking about. I don't know what a litigator is. 615 00:56:47,816 --> 00:56:52,069 I never thought of becoming a lawyer. But Judge Malloy was from Brooklyn, too. 616 00:56:52,070 --> 00:56:56,147 I mean, he did it. So all of a sudden it seemed possible. 617 00:56:56,408 --> 00:56:58,576 So I went to law school. 618 00:56:58,577 --> 00:57:03,377 Then from time to time, he would come by, see how I was doin', if I needed anything. 619 00:57:05,709 --> 00:57:07,877 He was a nice man. 620 00:57:07,878 --> 00:57:11,858 I mean, to go out of his way like that for me, you know? 621 00:57:12,090 --> 00:57:16,890 He wanted his son to follow in his footsteps, but he became a musician or something. 622 00:57:17,387 --> 00:57:20,639 I remember when I graduated, he was so proud of me. 623 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:23,351 That's quite a story. 624 00:57:23,352 --> 00:57:25,061 Yeah. 625 00:57:25,062 --> 00:57:28,856 - We got some case ahead of us here, huh? - Oh, yeah. 626 00:57:28,857 --> 00:57:32,693 - How do you feel about it? - Well, I... 627 00:57:32,694 --> 00:57:35,154 I'd like to have a murder weapon. 628 00:57:35,155 --> 00:57:38,616 But, other than that, I feel pretty good. 629 00:57:38,617 --> 00:57:40,823 - You do? - Oh, yeah. 630 00:57:42,454 --> 00:57:44,756 What you doin' this afternoon? 631 00:57:45,791 --> 00:57:48,542 - You're goin' hunting? - That's right. 632 00:57:48,543 --> 00:57:52,088 Why are you goin' hunting?
