- Yeah?

169
00:11:38,833 --> 00:11:40,968
Well, l could really
use a hand around here

170
00:11:41,099 --> 00:11:43,234
until l can hire replacements
for Larry and James.

171
00:11:43,366 --> 00:11:46,368
l'm supposed to start
with Berkeley in two weeks.

172
00:11:46,499 --> 00:11:48,033
l'm sure Judith Lieberman
will understand.

173
00:11:48,165 --> 00:11:49,132
Alvin--

174
00:11:49,265 --> 00:11:51,567
Just for another month or so,
until l can get replacements in here.

175
00:11:52,866 --> 00:11:55,235
Alvin, you're the one that wanted me
to leave in the first place.

176
00:11:55,366 --> 00:11:56,734
[sighs]

177
00:11:56,866 --> 00:11:58,400
Will you stay or not?

178
00:12:01,132 --> 00:12:02,433
Hey.

179
00:12:02,499 --> 00:12:06,002
James' sister asked about
his retirement fund.

180
00:12:06,132 --> 00:12:07,967
Talk to Carol in Accounting.

181
00:12:08,099 --> 00:12:09,567
l'll do it.

182
00:12:09,699 --> 00:12:12,134
- l'll take that.
- Yeah.

183
00:12:14,132 --> 00:12:15,233
lf you want to help me,

184
00:12:15,366 --> 00:12:17,835
you could put some of
his personal stum in this box.

186
00:12:22,366 --> 00:12:25,035
the guy who had this omice
before James.

187
00:12:25,165 --> 00:12:27,233
Stan, one day,
just stopped coming in.

188
00:12:27,366 --> 00:12:28,633
He didn't even quit.

189
00:12:28,766 --> 00:12:31,068
Just stopped.

190
00:12:31,199 --> 00:12:33,668
So, l called a friend
at Duquesne Law School,

191
00:12:33,799 --> 00:12:35,800
and he sent James over
for an interview.

192
00:12:35,933 --> 00:12:37,634
James hadn't even passed the bar,

193
00:12:37,766 --> 00:12:40,235
and he wasn't very likeable.

194
00:12:40,366 --> 00:12:42,167
No way l could hire him.

195
00:12:42,299 --> 00:12:44,768
A couple of weeks later,
l'm over at the Cramord Grill.

196
00:12:44,899 --> 00:12:47,401
Stanley Turrentine is playing,
they're making a recording of it.

197
00:12:47,532 --> 00:12:49,767
- Keystone Records--remember them?
- Uh, yeah.

198
00:12:49,899 --> 00:12:51,233
Oh, they were good.

199
00:12:51,366 --> 00:12:53,334
Jazz only.
Pittsburgh artists, you know?

200
00:12:53,466 --> 00:12:55,801
Joe Negri, Etta Cox, Walt Harper.

201
00:12:55,933 --> 00:12:58,902
Anyway, l look across the room,
and there's James.

202
00:12:59,032 --> 00:13:00,266
We start talking.

203
00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:03,101
He takes me out
to an after-hours club up on the Hill.

204
00:13:03,165 --> 00:13:05,233
Turns out he's a huge jazz fan.

205
00:13:05,366 --> 00:13:07,067
l mean, knowledgeable.

206
00:13:07,199 --> 00:13:09,534
l hired him the ne_ day.

207
00:13:09,666 --> 00:13:14,237
Well, that Turrentine record comes out
the following December, right?

208
00:13:14,366 --> 00:13:15,633
James--get this--

209
00:13:15,766 --> 00:13:17,501
James buys it for me for Christmas,

210
00:13:17,632 --> 00:13:19,767
then immediately borrows it
so he can tape it.

211
00:13:19,899 --> 00:13:21,700
Never gives it back.

212
00:13:21,833 --> 00:13:23,935
What do you do?
You know, it's a present.

213
00:13:24,065 --> 00:13:26,734
You don't want to see--
l don't know--

214
00:13:26,866 --> 00:13:30,736
Anyway, Keystone goes bankrupt,
Turrentine dies,

215
00:13:30,866 --> 00:13:33,635
and now it is, like, the most rare
recording you can find.

216
00:13:35,499 --> 00:13:37,000
That bothered me--

217
00:13:37,132 --> 00:13:39,400
that he never gave it back to me.

218
00:13:41,966 --> 00:13:43,534
Always really bothered me.

219
00:13:46,399 --> 00:13:48,601

Oh, Suzanne, how are you?

Hi. l know that
this is a terrible time--

223
00:13:54,432 --> 00:13:55,432
Oh, thank you.

224
00:13:55,566 --> 00:13:58,001
But this is Joey Smith, and he needs
a lawyer for a shelter hearing.

225
00:13:58,132 --> 00:13:59,266
Sure.

226

l tried at the Children's Center
but they were all full.

Joey, will you wait here a second?

233
00:14:14,132 --> 00:14:15,366
Thanks.

234
00:14:17,966 --> 00:14:19,667
Hey, how are you doing?

235
00:14:21,299 --> 00:14:22,633
That's OK.

236
00:14:25,966 --> 00:14:28,301
Joey is nine years old.

237
00:14:28,432 --> 00:14:30,634
He came into town last week
with the carnival.

238
00:14:30,766 --> 00:14:33,535
- Literally?
- Literally.

239
00:14:33,666 --> 00:14:35,401
The kind that moves around.

240
00:14:35,532 --> 00:14:37,800
Joey's been traveling with it
since he was born.

241
00:14:37,933 --> 00:14:41,403
Um, his mother is some sort
of sideshow pe_ormer.

242
00:14:41,532 --> 00:14:43,634
She does a kind of reptile act.

243
00:14:43,766 --> 00:14:44,766
Why is he here?

244
00:14:44,899 --> 00:14:46,700
He was picked up Friday night

245
00:14:46,833 --> 00:14:49,435
sleeping outside
of his father's backyard.

246
00:14:49,566 --> 00:14:50,900
Or at least
that's what Joey's claiming,

247
00:14:51,032 --> 00:14:53,200
that his father is a dentist
in Mt. Lebanon.

248
00:14:53,332 --> 00:14:54,666
You don't know that for sure?

249
00:14:54,799 --> 00:14:57,601
We're trying to track him down.
He's on vacation with his family.

250
00:14:57,733 --> 00:15:00,001
Well, if the kid's a runaway,
why isn't he back with his mother?

251
00:15:00,132 --> 00:15:02,300
Joey's claiming
that the owner of the carnival

252
00:15:02,366 --> 00:15:03,734
is molesting him.

253
00:15:13,165 --> 00:15:15,100
He seems to like Legos.

254
00:15:22,466 --> 00:15:24,267
- What are you making?
- A doghouse.

255
00:15:25,399 --> 00:15:26,867
Of course.

256

[Nick] Do you want to tell me
why you ran away?

264
00:15:43,599 --> 00:15:45,500
l just wanted to see my dad.

265
00:15:45,632 --> 00:15:47,133
Did you want to talk to him?

266
00:15:49,132 --> 00:15:50,600
What did you want to tell him?

267
00:15:50,733 --> 00:15:52,501
That l didn't want to do it anymore.

268
00:15:52,632 --> 00:15:54,333
Do what?

269
00:15:54,466 --> 00:15:56,634
Help Mr. Meadows with the mail.

Yeah, it's not Exeter
but it's got the basics!.

275
00:16:30,332 --> 00:16:31,933
They don't have
a licensed teacher, though,

276
00:16:32,065 --> 00:16:34,734
so l'm recommending they get one
before they leave the city.

277
00:16:34,866 --> 00:16:36,701
Right there is the bathrooms
and the showers.

There's no hot water in those stalls.

as best they can.

we are ostensibly a big family.

And l guess l'm supposed
to be the father here.

295

As such, l'm often called upon
to play a paternalistic role.

00:17:23,866 --> 00:17:24,933
Paternalistic?

297

Joey, like all kids here,

00:17:27,599 --> 00:17:29,968
are the children of children,
emotionally speaking.

299

They need love, guidance,
sometimes discipline.

lt's in my best interests
to watch over them.

After all, most of them will stay
with this carnival for life.

court-appointed guardian.

329
00:19:11,432 --> 00:19:15,202
Your son says George Meadows
was masturbating in front of him.

330
00:19:15,332 --> 00:19:16,966
l want my kid back.

331
00:19:18,299 --> 00:19:20,601
Do you know anything
about what your son is saying?

332
00:19:20,733 --> 00:19:24,002
lf George Meadows was touching himself
in front of my son,

333
00:19:24,132 --> 00:19:25,333
l would kill him.

334
00:19:25,466 --> 00:19:26,867
So, then, your son is lying?

335
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:28,167
Where's Joey?

336
00:19:28,299 --> 00:19:29,400
That doesn't answer my question.

337
00:19:29,532 --> 00:19:30,766
l don't even know who you are.

338
00:19:30,899 --> 00:19:33,001
That does not answer
my question, like l said.

339
00:19:33,132 --> 00:19:34,533
Look, l know you're a lawyer.

340
00:19:34,666 --> 00:19:37,001
l just don't know what the hell
you have to do with any of this.

341
00:19:37,132 --> 00:19:40,034
The court is going to ask me
for a recommendation

342
00:19:40,165 --> 00:19:41,599
about where Joey should live.

343
00:19:41,733 --> 00:19:44,435
My son took om.
l don't know why.

344
00:19:44,566 --> 00:19:46,467
Maybe he was sick
of working all summer,

345
00:19:46,599 --> 00:19:48,367
or maybe because he wanted
to see his dad,

346
00:19:48,499 --> 00:19:50,300
who, by the way,
he doesn't even know.

347
00:19:50,432 --> 00:19:52,000
lt happens.

348
00:19:52,132 --> 00:19:55,068
Kids around here want to see
what the normal world is like.

349
00:19:55,199 --> 00:19:57,834
So, you're confident
there's been no abuse?

350
00:19:57,966 --> 00:19:59,500
l've known George Meadows
all my life.

351
00:19:59,632 --> 00:20:01,700
He's all right.

352
00:20:01,833 --> 00:20:04,535
Please give me back my son.
We're leaving at the end of the week.

353
00:20:04,666 --> 00:20:06,000
Give him back.

354
00:20:06,132 --> 00:20:07,733
Have you seen this?

355
00:20:07,866 --> 00:20:09,100
What?

356
00:20:09,232 --> 00:20:11,834
lt's your son's statement. It, uh--

357
00:20:11,966 --> 00:20:15,436
lt's very specific about
what happened in that trailer.

358
00:20:50,299 --> 00:20:52,634
[Gretchen]
Nick. About James--

359
00:20:52,766 --> 00:20:54,567
- l just wanted to say--
- Thank you.

360
00:20:54,699 --> 00:20:56,901
- Terrible thing. l met him once--
- Any messages?

361
00:20:57,032 --> 00:20:58,833
He seemed like such a nice guy.

362
00:20:58,966 --> 00:21:00,734
- Any messages?
- Oh.

363
00:21:00,866 --> 00:21:02,234
Right. Here you go.

364
00:21:02,366 --> 00:21:04,201
Thank you.

365
00:21:04,332 --> 00:21:06,100
[Burton]
Nick.

366
00:21:11,032 --> 00:21:12,533
How are you doing?

367
00:21:17,766 --> 00:21:20,201
- Need anything?
- l'm fine.

368
00:21:21,566 --> 00:21:24,502
l was thinking about that shrink
you were seeing.

369
00:21:24,632 --> 00:21:26,033
You need his number?

370
00:21:26,165 --> 00:21:27,866
No, l was thinking about you.

371
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:29,534
No, l'm all right.

372
00:21:29,666 --> 00:21:30,867
You OK?

373
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:32,701
Yeah. Why?

374
00:21:32,833 --> 00:21:34,568
Well, after what happened
the other night,

375
00:21:34,699 --> 00:21:36,067
you were kind of--

376
00:21:39,099 --> 00:21:41,601
You know about that partner's meeting
this afternoon, right?

377
00:21:41,733 --> 00:21:43,601
Yeah, finalizing bonuses.

378
00:21:43,733 --> 00:21:45,101
4:30.

379
00:21:45,232 --> 00:21:46,833
l'll be there.

380
00:21:55,666 --> 00:21:57,768
- Hey.
- Hey.

381
00:21:57,899 --> 00:22:00,368
- How are you feeling?
- All right.

382
00:22:00,499 --> 00:22:02,834
Yeah, l've been pretty upset.
l mean, l was--

383
00:22:02,899 --> 00:22:04,967
l was supposed to have lunch
with James tomorrow.

384
00:22:05,099 --> 00:22:06,366
Hey, Nick, um--

385
00:22:08,065 --> 00:22:11,401
Look, man, if you want to talk,
you know...

386
00:22:11,532 --> 00:22:14,668
l'm here. All right?

387
00:22:19,733 --> 00:22:21,401
Guess this is kind of a bad time.

388
00:22:21,532 --> 00:22:23,433
Bonuses?

389
00:22:23,566 --> 00:22:28,170
Uh, yeah. l made up a memo
of hours, billings, new business.

390
00:22:28,299 --> 00:22:29,933
l mean, this was before
l heard about James, of course.

391
00:22:30,065 --> 00:22:31,199
[Gretchen]
Nick?

392
00:22:31,332 --> 00:22:33,834
There's a man named Harold Watson
on the phone--

393
00:22:33,966 --> 00:22:36,568
something about a kid
named Joey Smith.

394
00:22:47,432 --> 00:22:49,801
- You Nick Fallin?
- Yeah.

395
00:22:51,799 --> 00:22:53,000
Hey. Harold Watson.

396
00:22:53,132 --> 00:22:54,633
Who the hell could--

397
00:22:54,766 --> 00:22:56,367
l mean, they arrested this freak
that did that to Joey?

398
00:22:56,499 --> 00:22:58,400
The police are still
Iooking into it.

399
00:22:58,532 --> 00:23:01,134
Oh, my God. l can't believe it.
Son of a bitches.

400
00:23:01,199 --> 00:23:03,467
l mean, Joey's only--
What is he, eight years old?

401
00:23:03,599 --> 00:23:04,700
Nine.

402
00:23:04,833 --> 00:23:06,301
Nine.

403
00:23:07,933 --> 00:23:09,434
[sighs]

404
00:23:09,566 --> 00:23:11,467
l know what you're thinking.

405
00:23:11,599 --> 00:23:14,101
How could l--
you know, with Amy?

406
00:23:15,566 --> 00:23:17,935
l was, uh--

407
00:23:18,065 --> 00:23:21,601
l had a very interesting summer
ten years ago.

408
00:23:21,733 --> 00:23:23,968
l was partying pretty hard.

409
00:23:24,099 --> 00:23:25,900
l met Amy, and--

410
00:23:27,466 --> 00:23:29,634
One-week thing, right?
l mean, we've all been there.

411
00:23:31,466 --> 00:23:33,801
We may need to find
a place for Joey to live.

412
00:23:33,933 --> 00:23:35,601
Oh, right, l'm sure.

413
00:23:35,733 --> 00:23:37,501
Would you consider
having him live with you?

414
00:23:37,632 --> 00:23:39,300
- You mean here?
- Yeah.

415
00:23:40,466 --> 00:23:42,467
l'll speak to my wife and kids.

416
00:23:44,399 --> 00:23:45,767
Let me know.

417

00:23:59,699 --> 00:24:01,400
Sir? Sir?

419
00:24:01,466 --> 00:24:03,734
Your car is in my husband's spot.

420
00:24:03,866 --> 00:24:05,801
- My husband has MS.
- Oh, l'm sorry.

421
00:24:05,933 --> 00:24:07,934
And he needs to park
in front of the house.

422
00:24:08,065 --> 00:24:09,499
lt's a reserved spot.

423
00:24:09,632 --> 00:24:11,300
l understand. l'll move.

[knock on door]

427
00:24:42,933 --> 00:24:45,201
Thought you might be hungry.

428
00:24:45,332 --> 00:24:47,734
- Can l come in?
- Sure.

429
00:24:51,132 --> 00:24:54,835
Whew!
l was just helping Alvin.. .

430
00:24:54,966 --> 00:24:57,034
clean out James' apartment.

431
00:24:57,165 --> 00:24:58,299
Right.

432
00:24:58,432 --> 00:24:59,833
Alvin's tearing the place up.

433
00:24:59,966 --> 00:25:02,301
l don't know. He's looking
for a jazz record or something.

434
00:25:05,532 --> 00:25:07,467
He says you were going
to stay for another month.

435
00:25:07,599 --> 00:25:09,901
- He did?
- Are you?

436
00:25:10,032 --> 00:25:11,700
You know,
Alvin had a really good idea

437
00:25:11,833 --> 00:25:13,935
to start up a fund
at Duquesne Law School

438
00:25:14,065 --> 00:25:15,599
honoring James.

439
00:25:15,733 --> 00:25:17,901
So, you're not going to stay?

440
00:25:18,032 --> 00:25:22,102
You know l'm supposed to start
at Berkeley October 15, so...

441
00:25:25,165 --> 00:25:26,900
This smells great.
You want to eat?

442
00:25:27,032 --> 00:25:30,135
Uh, no. l just, uh--
l just ate.

443
00:25:30,265 --> 00:25:32,433
Oh, come on.
l don't want to eat alone.

444
00:25:32,566 --> 00:25:34,534
You don't have to.

445
00:25:41,599 --> 00:25:43,801
Nick, l was really kind of
hoping that we could be--

446
00:25:43,933 --> 00:25:45,534
Friends?

447
00:25:45,666 --> 00:25:48,402
l guess. No, more like--

448
00:25:48,532 --> 00:25:50,267
Well, l'm not a very good friend.

449
00:25:50,399 --> 00:25:52,834
So, you just want to end it, then?

450
00:25:52,966 --> 00:25:54,801
- End what?
- Come on.

451
00:25:57,399 --> 00:25:59,367
l said what l said, all right?

452
00:25:59,499 --> 00:26:03,736
Yeah, well, Nick,
Iove is not a business deal.

453
00:26:03,799 --> 00:26:06,535
l mean, you just don't pull the omer.

454
00:26:08,199 --> 00:26:09,800
Right.

455
00:26:13,966 --> 00:26:15,701
You know l really care about you.

456
00:26:19,065 --> 00:26:20,800
l more than care about you.

457
00:26:20,933 --> 00:26:22,534
lt's just that--

458
00:26:22,666 --> 00:26:24,200
You're going to move to California.

459
00:26:26,366 --> 00:26:27,533
Right.

460
00:26:27,666 --> 00:26:30,268
Then we have nothing
to talk about.

461
00:26:39,232 --> 00:26:41,233
l'll leave the food for you.

462
00:26:56,866 --> 00:26:59,501
Nick, your father wants to see you
in his omice.

00:27:01,299 --> 00:27:02,400
[knock on door]

464
00:27:02,532 --> 00:27:04,767
- Come in.
- What is it?

465
00:27:04,899 --> 00:27:08,335
Uh, Nick, this is Ralph Trillo.

466
00:27:08,466 --> 00:27:09,767
This is my son Nicholas.

467
00:27:13,265 --> 00:27:15,333
Hey.

468
00:27:15,466 --> 00:27:17,434
What, you couldn't just let it go?

469
00:27:17,566 --> 00:27:19,868
You went to his house?

470
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:21,768
What the hell were you thinking?

471
00:27:21,899 --> 00:27:23,700
Nicholas, we attacked him.

472
00:27:23,833 --> 00:27:26,969
No. You getting out of your car
is what started this whole damn thing.

473
00:27:27,099 --> 00:27:29,768
lt was a fight, Dad.
You know what this could do to me?

474
00:27:29,899 --> 00:27:31,967
This guy goes to the cops--
l'm on probation.

475
00:27:32,099 --> 00:27:34,501
l know that.
l'm sorry about that.

476
00:27:34,632 --> 00:27:36,734
You're sorry.

477
00:27:36,866 --> 00:27:40,803
Nicholas, l had to find out
if he was OK or not.

478
00:27:40,933 --> 00:27:42,801
lf this guy goes to the police,

479
00:27:42,933 --> 00:27:45,068
l'm the one looking at
a probation revocation hearing.

480
00:27:45,199 --> 00:27:47,768
Well, he's not going to the cops.

481
00:27:47,899 --> 00:27:49,934
He knows who we are now.
He's been to our omices.

482
00:27:50,065 --> 00:27:51,232
He knows we have money.

483
00:27:51,366 --> 00:27:53,634
No, he's not going to do anything.

484
00:27:53,766 --> 00:27:55,901
He's going straight to see
a lawyer right now!

485
00:27:56,032 --> 00:27:57,633
l'll fix it.

486
00:27:57,766 --> 00:27:59,334
How?

487
00:28:02,366 --> 00:28:04,167
l'll handle it.

488
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:16,301
Thank you.

489
00:28:17,866 --> 00:28:20,768
Well, l appreciate
you coming by, Joanne.

490
00:28:20,899 --> 00:28:22,033
No problem.

491
00:28:22,165 --> 00:28:24,233
l read about your son.
He's going to Penn State, right?

492
00:28:24,366 --> 00:28:26,267
- Yeah.
- That's great.

493
00:28:26,399 --> 00:28:29,535
The pros are liking these college players
a lot more these days,

494
00:28:29,666 --> 00:28:30,900
especially pitchers.

495
00:28:31,032 --> 00:28:32,166
l know.

496
00:28:32,299 --> 00:28:34,434
So, l pulled that file on Mr. Trillo.
Do you still want it?

497
00:28:34,566 --> 00:28:37,502
Oh, yeah. Yeah, l could've gotten this
from Frank DeScala,

498
00:28:37,632 --> 00:28:40,001
but l thought it would be nice
to catch up with you a little bit.

499
00:28:40,132 --> 00:28:41,933
- You look great.
- Oh, thanks. So do you.

500
00:28:42,065 --> 00:28:43,933
Thanks.

501
00:28:44,065 --> 00:28:46,000
I
''Hairline fracture of the skull
minor concussion,

502
00:28:46,132 --> 00:28:49,902
''facial laceration, broken right hand.''

503
00:28:50,032 --> 00:28:51,366
Well, not so bad.

504
00:28:51,499 --> 00:28:52,800
The treatment was standard.

505
00:28:52,933 --> 00:28:54,401
Where's the malpractice coming in?

506
00:28:54,532 --> 00:28:56,100
They haven't even filed a suit yet.

507
00:28:56,232 --> 00:28:57,866
So, why do you need this information?

508
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,570
Hmm, l just thought maybe
l'd nip it in the bud before it gets--

509
00:29:06,532 --> 00:29:08,667
Could you, uh--

510
00:29:08,799 --> 00:29:10,300
Could you excuse me just a second?

511
00:29:10,432 --> 00:29:11,900
- Sure.
- l'll be right back.

512
00:29:15,432 --> 00:29:17,000
- Mr. Fallin, how are you doing?
- l'm doing fine.

513
00:29:17,132 --> 00:29:19,701
- Remember Cheryl Ann?
- Hi.

514
00:29:19,833 --> 00:29:22,168
You secretary told me where you were.

515
00:29:22,299 --> 00:29:23,233
Did she?

516
00:29:23,366 --> 00:29:24,533
Yeah, l told her l was a client.

517
00:29:24,666 --> 00:29:26,534
Oh. What do you want?

518
00:29:26,666 --> 00:29:29,001
Mr. Fallin, l think that
l overestimated my capacity.

519
00:29:29,132 --> 00:29:30,166
ls that right?

520
00:29:30,299 --> 00:29:31,600
My business ventures
are heating up.

521
00:29:31,733 --> 00:29:33,234
They're going to require
my undivided attention.

522
00:29:33,366 --> 00:29:34,834
Your business ventures?

523
00:29:34,966 --> 00:29:37,401
Yeah, l invested in Cheryl Ann's
beauty supply business.

524
00:29:37,532 --> 00:29:39,066
Oh.

525
00:29:39,199 --> 00:29:40,733
You couldn't do that here?

526
00:29:40,866 --> 00:29:43,134
Uh, no. We're going to Florida.

527
00:29:43,265 --> 00:29:46,635
So, what do you want from me--
bus fare?

528
00:29:46,766 --> 00:29:48,100
No, no, no, l got my car.

529
00:29:48,232 --> 00:29:51,435
Now, listen--
l haven't told Shannon yet.

530
00:29:51,566 --> 00:29:53,868
And l guess what
l'm trying to say here--

531
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,668
and this is hard for me, sir--
is that, uh--

532
00:29:55,799 --> 00:29:57,400
well, l know how Shannon
feels about you.

533
00:29:57,532 --> 00:30:00,334
So, l thought that maybe you could
keep an eye on her till l get back.

534
00:30:00,466 --> 00:30:01,934
You're not coming back, Roy.

535
00:30:02,065 --> 00:30:03,933
Well, sir,
l don't know that for certain.

536
00:30:04,065 --> 00:30:06,767
You go away. You just stay away.

537
00:30:06,899 --> 00:30:08,333
Well, it's my right, Mr. Fallin,

538
00:30:08,466 --> 00:30:10,201
to live my existence
any way l choose.

539
00:30:10,332 --> 00:30:12,167
- [Man] Hey, Burton.
- Hey.

540
00:30:13,866 --> 00:30:16,702
So, the fish specials are very good.

541
00:30:16,833 --> 00:30:18,401
lf you're a fish person.

542
00:30:18,532 --> 00:30:20,433
l like fish.

543
00:30:20,566 --> 00:30:21,967
Well, cheers, Joanne.
It's good to see you.

544
00:30:22,099 --> 00:30:23,934
You, too.

545
00:30:25,766 --> 00:30:27,767
- You wanted to see me?
- Yeah.

546
00:30:29,065 --> 00:30:30,633
l'm down three lawyers.

547
00:30:30,766 --> 00:30:33,001
So, until l can hire replacements,

548
00:30:33,132 --> 00:30:35,000
l am going to be leaning on you
to pick up the slack.

549
00:30:35,132 --> 00:30:36,666
l understand.
l'll come in when l can.

550
00:30:36,799 --> 00:30:38,634
You'll come in when l tell you to.

551
00:30:38,766 --> 00:30:40,834
Well, that's not our deal.

552
00:30:43,599 --> 00:30:45,834
l've been talking to the dean
over at Duquesne

553
00:30:45,966 --> 00:30:47,834
about setting up a scholarship fund.

554
00:30:47,966 --> 00:30:49,500
Yeah, l heard, l heard.

555
00:30:49,632 --> 00:30:50,666
So--

556
00:30:50,799 --> 00:30:52,667
Alvin, before you get
too deep into this--

557
00:30:52,799 --> 00:30:53,866
Yes?

558
00:30:55,499 --> 00:30:57,634
Taliek is going to claim
that James attacked him.

559
00:30:57,766 --> 00:30:58,867
That's ridiculous.

560
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,569
He's going to say that James blames him
for what happened to his nephew,

561
00:31:01,632 --> 00:31:03,266
and that he broke into his house
and attacked him.

562
00:31:03,399 --> 00:31:04,466
But that's a lie.

563
00:31:04,599 --> 00:31:06,133
No law school
is going to want an endowment

564
00:31:06,265 --> 00:31:09,301
named after some guy that took
a tire iron to a teenage kid's face.

565
00:31:09,432 --> 00:31:10,766
But he didn't do it.

566
00:31:22,099 --> 00:31:23,366
Mr. Fallin?

567
00:31:23,499 --> 00:31:25,500
- Harold Watson.
- Yeah, l remember.

568
00:31:25,632 --> 00:31:27,066
My wife and l discussed Joey.

569
00:31:27,199 --> 00:31:28,633
- And?
- It's a no.

570
00:31:28,766 --> 00:31:31,468
Amy was--

571
00:31:31,599 --> 00:31:33,934
- l was--
- You told me.

572
00:31:34,065 --> 00:31:35,833
Look, Joey's a good kid,

573
00:31:35,966 --> 00:31:37,867
but you see what
he's been brought up around.

574
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,268
My wife--she just doesn't
feel comfortable

575
00:31:40,399 --> 00:31:42,100
bringing him into a house
with normal kids.

576
00:31:43,132 --> 00:31:44,666
You know what l mean.

577
00:31:44,799 --> 00:31:46,133
Oh. Yeah.

578
00:31:46,265 --> 00:31:50,335
l have a family.
Joey belongs with Amy.

579
00:31:50,466 --> 00:31:53,635
But l will absolutely keep up
with my child support payments.

580
00:31:53,766 --> 00:31:56,268
Great. l'll let them know that. Thanks.

581
00:32:04,799 --> 00:32:08,002
Hey, how are you doing?

582
00:32:08,132 --> 00:32:09,533
Good.

583
00:32:10,699 --> 00:32:12,767
- Thanks for coming over.
- Yeah, sure.

584
00:32:12,899 --> 00:32:15,901
What, uh--
What's going on?

585
00:32:18,399 --> 00:32:19,800
Roy had some good news.

586
00:32:19,933 --> 00:32:20,933
Yeah?

587
00:32:21,065 --> 00:32:22,466
He got some great job in Florida.

588
00:32:22,599 --> 00:32:24,467
He said he's going to call me
in a few weeks

589
00:32:24,599 --> 00:32:25,833
once he's set up.

590
00:32:25,966 --> 00:32:28,335
Oh. Good.

591
00:32:28,466 --> 00:32:29,667
Until then...

592
00:32:29,799 --> 00:32:31,634
l guess l have to wait.

593
00:32:31,766 --> 00:32:33,134
l mean, stay here.

594
00:32:33,265 --> 00:32:35,567
Yeah.

595
00:32:35,699 --> 00:32:37,467
But it's good news.

596
00:32:37,599 --> 00:32:40,401
Yeah, it is. It's good news.

597
00:32:40,532 --> 00:32:42,133
Burton?

598
00:32:42,265 --> 00:32:43,833
What, honey?

599
00:32:47,065 --> 00:32:49,367
l kind of told Roy--

600
00:32:49,499 --> 00:32:51,634
l kind of told him that
l might want to stay with you...

601
00:32:51,766 --> 00:32:54,535
until he gets back.

602
00:32:54,666 --> 00:32:56,200
You told him that?

603
00:32:56,332 --> 00:32:58,133
Yeah.

604
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:06,368
Wow.

605
00:33:12,165 --> 00:33:14,133
Honey, you--

606
00:33:14,265 --> 00:33:17,501
Well, l sure like the idea.

607
00:33:18,866 --> 00:33:20,267
But, uh...

608
00:33:22,065 --> 00:33:24,767
Honey, l've got a--

609
00:33:24,899 --> 00:33:28,335
a lot of things going on
at the omice right now.

610
00:33:28,466 --> 00:33:32,069
l just--l don't think
it's possible right now.

611
00:33:33,632 --> 00:33:35,033
Oh.

612
00:33:36,366 --> 00:33:37,867
Do you understand?

613
00:33:39,165 --> 00:33:40,633
Yeah, l get it.

614
00:33:40,766 --> 00:33:42,667
Really?

615
00:33:42,799 --> 00:33:44,100
Yeah.

616
00:33:44,232 --> 00:33:47,301
l mean, l can come by here--
a lot, if you want.

617
00:33:48,432 --> 00:33:50,267
l'll just--
l'll call Roy and tell him.

618
00:33:50,399 --> 00:33:51,933
He'll probably
just come back and get me.

619
00:33:53,099 --> 00:33:55,034
Yeah.

620
00:33:56,866 --> 00:33:59,168
[Nick] Joey Smith's biological father
won't take him back.

621
00:33:59,299 --> 00:34:00,400
Who?

622
00:34:00,466 --> 00:34:02,267
Joey Smith--
the kid from the carnival.

623
00:34:02,399 --> 00:34:05,235
You see the paper?
You were right.

624
00:34:05,366 --> 00:34:06,667
About Taliek.

625
00:34:06,799 --> 00:34:08,467
His lawyers are setting up
an insanity defense

626
00:34:08,599 --> 00:34:10,067
and making James out
to be the bad guy.

627
00:34:10,199 --> 00:34:11,833
Alvin, l need your advice
on this case.

628
00:34:13,466 --> 00:34:14,800
What's Social Services saying?

629
00:34:14,933 --> 00:34:17,402
Well, the police ran a background check
on this guy Meadows.

630
00:34:17,532 --> 00:34:20,268
lt seems this is not the first complaint
that's gone up against him.

631
00:34:20,399 --> 00:34:21,833
You think the mom
was aware of the abuse?

632
00:34:21,966 --> 00:34:23,834
She just wants her kid back.

633
00:34:23,966 --> 00:34:25,334
l don't think she'll admit anything.

634
00:34:25,466 --> 00:34:26,767
What does the kid want?

635
00:34:26,899 --> 00:34:28,433
He wants to be with his mother.

636
00:34:28,566 --> 00:34:30,301
Well, tell Mom to leave the carnival.

637
00:34:30,432 --> 00:34:32,300
Social Services
can supervise them for a while

638
00:34:32,432 --> 00:34:34,400
so no one's at risk.

639
00:34:37,032 --> 00:34:39,067
l'm not going anywhere.

640
00:34:39,199 --> 00:34:42,802
Then l have to recommend
your son remain in a shelter.

641
00:34:42,933 --> 00:34:44,668
Who the hell are you to tell me?

642
00:34:44,799 --> 00:34:46,300
This is my son.

643
00:34:46,432 --> 00:34:48,000
My son.

644
00:34:48,132 --> 00:34:49,366
Call these people.

645
00:34:49,499 --> 00:34:51,234
They will help you find a job.

646
00:34:51,366 --> 00:34:52,967
l will fill out
the government housing forms

647
00:34:53,099 --> 00:34:55,501
and take them to
the Housing Authority for you.

648
00:34:55,632 --> 00:34:57,700
The hearing is tomorrow morning,
1 1 A. M.

649
00:35:04,299 --> 00:35:07,201
l was on my way
to a symphony fundraiser--

650
00:35:07,332 --> 00:35:09,500
where l'm on the board,
by the way.

651
00:35:09,632 --> 00:35:11,800
My son was with me.
He's also an attorney.

652
00:35:11,933 --> 00:35:14,201
l was getting ready to park my car

653
00:35:14,332 --> 00:35:17,368
when a man recklessly
pulls in front of me, takes my place.

654
00:35:18,666 --> 00:35:22,169
l got out of the car,
politely asked him to move his car.

655
00:35:22,299 --> 00:35:24,167
He immediately got hostile.

656
00:35:24,299 --> 00:35:26,768
Shoves me,
throws me up against the car,

657
00:35:26,899 --> 00:35:29,234
hits me so hard
that it breaks his right hand.

658
00:35:29,366 --> 00:35:31,968
l, in self defense,

659
00:35:32,099 --> 00:35:33,934
threw a punch, connected,
the guy went down,

660
00:35:34,065 --> 00:35:35,933
and l walked away.

661
00:35:37,432 --> 00:35:39,233
You and your son attacked me.

662
00:35:40,966 --> 00:35:42,834
Well, this is a complaint

663
00:35:42,966 --> 00:35:46,903
alleging assault and battery
on a TO-year-old man.

664
00:35:47,899 --> 00:35:50,201
l'll serve you with that
tomorrow morning.

665
00:35:50,332 --> 00:35:53,535
l'm asking for _100,OOO in damages.

666
00:35:55,432 --> 00:35:57,534
l think you ought to know
that l have the resources

667
00:35:57,666 --> 00:36:01,269
to drag this case out
for a long time.

668
00:36:01,332 --> 00:36:03,567
Cost you a fortune.

669
00:36:03,699 --> 00:36:05,067
Cost me nothing.

670
00:36:06,332 --> 00:36:10,035
l am aware of your injuries,
your expenses, so l, um--

671
00:36:11,766 --> 00:36:13,667
l prepared a check

672
00:36:13,799 --> 00:36:17,269
in the amount of _36,OOO.

673
00:36:20,099 --> 00:36:21,967
A release form for you to sign.

674
00:36:22,099 --> 00:36:23,600
A release form?

675
00:36:23,733 --> 00:36:26,669
Yeah. That states that
there was a minor altercation

676
00:36:26,799 --> 00:36:29,034
between you and me only.

677
00:36:29,165 --> 00:36:31,367
lt says that we were both negligent,

678
00:36:31,499 --> 00:36:35,336
and neither party is willing
to accept blame.

679
00:36:35,466 --> 00:36:37,301
lt wasn't just me and you.

680
00:36:37,432 --> 00:36:39,834
No, no. My son was not involved.

681
00:36:39,966 --> 00:36:41,600
lf l want more money?

682
00:36:41,733 --> 00:36:42,967
[Burton]
l'm not here to negotiate.

683
00:36:43,099 --> 00:36:44,567
lf l got to the police?

684
00:36:45,966 --> 00:36:48,568
Ralph, l want you to know that l'm--

685
00:36:48,699 --> 00:36:51,234
l'm sorry about what happened.

686
00:36:51,366 --> 00:36:54,469
And l truly believe it would be
in everybody's best interests

687
00:36:54,599 --> 00:36:56,600
if you just took that check.

688
00:37:02,399 --> 00:37:05,401
By the way, l took care
of our little problem.

689
00:37:05,532 --> 00:37:07,200
What did you do?

690
00:37:07,332 --> 00:37:08,966
Well, l...

691
00:37:09,099 --> 00:37:11,501
just took care of it.

692
00:37:18,399 --> 00:37:20,434
Nicholas, let me ask you something.

693
00:37:20,566 --> 00:37:22,601
What?

694
00:37:22,733 --> 00:37:24,434
You know, Shannon's dad left town.

695
00:37:24,566 --> 00:37:25,500
Right.

696
00:37:25,632 --> 00:37:27,266
She has no place to go.

697
00:37:27,399 --> 00:37:28,800
No, Dad, you don't want
to go back there.

698
00:37:28,933 --> 00:37:30,501
No, no, l know
what you're think of her.

699
00:37:30,632 --> 00:37:32,333
l'm not asking you that.

700
00:37:34,632 --> 00:37:37,601
Heh. l guess
what l'm asking you is...

701
00:37:37,733 --> 00:37:39,568
what do you think of me?

702
00:37:41,799 --> 00:37:43,300
What do you mean?

703
00:37:44,499 --> 00:37:46,601
As a father?

704
00:37:55,032 --> 00:37:56,466
[Joey]
Can l go home now?

705
00:37:56,599 --> 00:37:58,934
- No.
- Why not?

706
00:37:59,065 --> 00:38:00,933
Because you should stay
at the shelter

707
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,135
and let Social Services
find a new home for you.

708
00:38:03,265 --> 00:38:06,768
What if l said...
it didn't happen?

709
00:38:06,899 --> 00:38:10,002
What if l said that Mr. Meadows
never did anything to me?

710
00:38:10,132 --> 00:38:11,700
l made it up, OK?

711
00:38:11,833 --> 00:38:13,534
l made it up.

712
00:38:18,065 --> 00:38:21,134
These are the housing forms.
All you have to do is sign them.

713
00:38:21,265 --> 00:38:23,767
l went to the job placement center.
That guy just stared at me,

714
00:38:23,899 --> 00:38:25,133
said he didn't have anything.

715
00:38:25,265 --> 00:38:26,532
We're going to find you a job.

716
00:38:26,666 --> 00:38:29,301
l have a job--in show business.
l'm a pe_ormer.

717
00:38:29,432 --> 00:38:32,401
l have a house in Florida
where l keep my snakes

718
00:38:32,532 --> 00:38:33,966
and where my son lives.

719
00:38:34,099 --> 00:38:36,067
This is the only thing l can do.

720
00:38:36,199 --> 00:38:38,034
l'm not leaving the carnival.

721
00:38:38,165 --> 00:38:41,668
Then l have to recommend
Joey be placed in a shelter.

722
00:38:41,799 --> 00:38:43,800
l can't change the way l look now.

723
00:38:43,933 --> 00:38:46,035
Even if l wanted to,
there's no doctor in the world

724
00:38:46,165 --> 00:38:47,666
that's going to change the way l look.

725
00:38:47,799 --> 00:38:49,867
Please! Give me back my son.

726
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,001
This is not up to me.

727
00:38:52,132 --> 00:38:55,335
- If l promise to protect him--
- Protect him?

728
00:38:55,466 --> 00:38:57,835
You haven't been able
to protect him so far.

729
00:38:57,966 --> 00:38:59,167
l'll never let it happen again.

730
00:38:59,299 --> 00:39:01,234
You need to talk to the police.

731
00:39:01,299 --> 00:39:02,800
l can't do that.
They'll shut us down.

732
00:39:02,933 --> 00:39:04,267
- Talk to the police.
- l can't.

733
00:39:04,399 --> 00:39:06,100
l'm sorry. l can't do that.

734
00:39:06,232 --> 00:39:09,068
lt's not like he's touching Joey.

735
00:39:17,399 --> 00:39:20,068
[Judge] Has there been any progress
in the criminal investigation?

736
00:39:20,199 --> 00:39:21,567
Uh, not yet, Your Honor.

737
00:39:21,699 --> 00:39:24,701
The child has recanted his allegations
against Mr. Meadows.

738
00:39:24,833 --> 00:39:27,936
ln addition, Your Honor, Mr. Meadows
had improved the living conditions

739
00:39:28,065 --> 00:39:30,167
and hired a full-time tutor.

740
00:39:30,299 --> 00:39:33,168
Miss Smith wants Joey back,
and Joey wants to be with her.

741
00:39:33,299 --> 00:39:36,101
There's absolutely no legal reason
to keep them apart.

742
00:39:36,232 --> 00:39:37,600
Mr. Fallin, your recommendation?

743
00:39:37,733 --> 00:39:39,634
Joey Smith should remain
in a group home

744
00:39:39,766 --> 00:39:41,601
until the police have concluded
their investigation.

745
00:39:41,733 --> 00:39:42,733
l want to go home.

746
00:39:42,866 --> 00:39:45,335
- We're leaving for Ohio today.
- Miss Smith.

747
00:39:45,466 --> 00:39:46,700
He wants to come with me.

748
00:39:46,833 --> 00:39:49,502
Miss Smith has done nothing wrong.
No abuse, no neglect,

749
00:39:49,632 --> 00:39:52,835
there have been no criminal charges
filed against Mr. Meadows.

750
00:39:52,966 --> 00:39:54,767
l want to go home.

751
00:39:55,866 --> 00:39:58,268
l see no reason why Joey
shouldn't go back with his mother.

752
00:39:58,399 --> 00:40:00,501
Joey's mother knows
he's being abused.

753
00:40:00,632 --> 00:40:02,400
He recanted because
he doesn't want the carnival

754
00:40:02,532 --> 00:40:04,700
to leave town without him.
But she knows the truth.

755
00:40:11,666 --> 00:40:15,236
No, l know l can be a little rough

756
00:40:15,366 --> 00:40:18,302
and lose my temper
sometimes, but...

757
00:40:18,432 --> 00:40:21,802
like l said,
if l frightened you that day, l--

758
00:40:21,933 --> 00:40:24,135
l'm very sorry.

759
00:40:25,933 --> 00:40:27,868
lt was Roy. He told me to.

760
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:29,634
No, don't do that, honey.

761
00:40:29,766 --> 00:40:32,902
Don't blame other people
for your actions.

762
00:40:34,332 --> 00:40:35,833
OK.

763
00:40:35,966 --> 00:40:38,635
Well, anyway...

764
00:40:38,766 --> 00:40:41,602
l've been thinking about this.

765
00:40:41,733 --> 00:40:43,701
And, uh...

766
00:40:43,833 --> 00:40:47,203
l'd like for you to come back,
if you want to.

767
00:40:48,566 --> 00:40:49,934
Yeah, that's what l was--

768
00:40:50,065 --> 00:40:51,833
But you're going to have
to give me your word--

769
00:40:51,966 --> 00:40:53,767
no more lying.

770
00:40:53,899 --> 00:40:55,734
No more going to places
without my permission.

771
00:40:55,866 --> 00:40:57,033
No more Roy.

772
00:40:57,165 --> 00:41:00,101
Unless l'm there to supervise.

773
00:41:00,165 --> 00:41:02,233
l promise, Burton. l promise.

774
00:41:03,632 --> 00:41:05,200
OK.

Why don't we--

778
00:41:12,899 --> 00:41:14,634
Why don't we--
before we go home--

779
00:41:14,766 --> 00:41:18,002
take a movie in
and get some dinner?

780
00:41:18,132 --> 00:41:20,901
l'd rather just go back
to your house, Burton.

781
00:41:21,032 --> 00:41:23,334
lf that's OK,
l'd just rather go back there.

782
00:41:23,466 --> 00:41:26,035
OK. Yeah.

783
00:41:26,165 --> 00:41:27,599
Me, too.

784
00:41:27,733 --> 00:41:30,502
l'll be back after we finish
in Cincinnati

Mr. Fallin will watch out for you,

00:41:35,899 --> 00:41:38,001
and l'm going to write you every day,

788
00:41:38,132 --> 00:41:40,434
and l'm going to call you.

789
00:41:40,566 --> 00:41:43,435
So, give me a hug.

790
00:41:48,966 --> 00:41:51,535
Let's go! Roll out!

We'll work this out.

00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:56,935
OK?

Found my Stanley Turrentine record
in James' apartment.
