5
00:00:37,090 --> 00:00:39,140
{\an8}To talk to you a little bit, but I'll say this.

6
00:00:39,340 --> 00:00:41,890
{\an8}When the Lord calls you, you must answer the call.

7
00:00:42,090 --> 00:00:43,520
- - Yes.
- That's what it is.

8
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:45,730
The Lord has settled my heart and my soul today,

9
00:00:45,930 --> 00:00:47,580
That's why I came here to talk to you.

10
00:00:48,410 --> 00:00:50,600
I say to myself, “What supports us?”

11
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:54,990
What makes us feel safe?

12
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,330
I think it's home.

13
00:01:00,830 --> 00:01:02,620
If only I could get home.

14
00:01:03,450 --> 00:01:07,540
Even saying the word "home",
It evokes a certain feeling in you.

15
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,850
- - Where should I get to?
- Home.

16
00:01:10,050 --> 00:01:11,560
- Where do we want to be?
- At home.

17
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,850
Home is where the heart is. Amen.
- Amen.

18
00:01:15,050 --> 00:01:17,190
- - Lullaby!
- Lullaby!

19
00:01:17,380 --> 00:01:19,350
Because when you are home, you find your family.

20
00:01:19,550 --> 00:01:21,060
Everyone is there. You are home.

21
00:01:21,260 --> 00:01:23,740
Where are our homes? Black church.

22
00:01:26,830 --> 00:01:28,310
I don't hear you. Where are we?

23
00:01:28,510 --> 00:01:30,660
- - In the black church.
- Talk to me.

24
00:01:31,290 --> 00:01:34,490
In the black church,
They don't say I fit the bill.

25
00:01:35,660 --> 00:01:39,020
In the black church
They don't judge me based on the color of my skin.

26
00:01:39,220 --> 00:01:40,850
- - True.
- No.

27
00:01:41,050 --> 00:01:43,730
In the black church, they don't give me a title,

28
00:01:43,930 --> 00:01:47,290
If so, do you know what they call me?

29
00:01:47,740 --> 00:01:49,810
I asked, do you know what they call me?

30
00:01:50,010 --> 00:01:52,830
They call me the child of God.

31
00:01:59,950 --> 00:02:02,120
- - Okay, strong one.
- Take care of yourselves, okay?

32
00:02:04,540 --> 00:02:05,350
Okay.

33
00:02:05,550 --> 00:02:07,270
Goodbye. Take care.

00:02:07,470 --> 00:02:09,290

And you did a good job

Mrs. O'Keefe.

47
00:02:42,330 --> 00:02:43,910
Definitely accomplished a lot.

Okay.

- - I'm still allowed to do that.
- Of course.

{\an8}And I will tell you now...

00:03:41,580 --> 00:03:43,040
{\an8}My client is not a good person.

66
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:45,040
It's not like that.

67
00:03:45,540 --> 00:03:48,910
My invalid client, Clovis Tubbs,
The day of the accident

68
00:03:50,290 --> 00:03:51,540
He was drunk.

69
00:03:53,330 --> 00:03:54,910
Yes. He was drunk.

70
00:03:56,330 --> 00:04:00,230
He was high, drunk and very drunk.

71
00:04:00,430 --> 00:04:02,190
Actually, you want to check the numbers?

72
00:04:02,380 --> 00:04:05,560
The numbers indicate 0.4 percent
of alcohol in the blood.

73
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:06,730
This is blogged here.

74
00:04:06,930 --> 00:04:09,290
He was drunk, if you want to use a big word.

75
00:04:10,910 --> 00:04:12,200
Not only that,

76
00:04:12,950 --> 00:04:14,390
He was even going through mental problems.

77
00:04:14,590 --> 00:04:16,810
He said he was suffering from depression.

78
00:04:17,010 --> 00:04:19,690
Some of them say he had suicidal tendencies.
And we have the proof

79
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,890
Because when he was talking to his therapist, he said to him,

80
00:04:23,090 --> 00:04:27,040
“I feel so bad I wish I could
Riding my car and hitting a tree directly.”

81
00:04:28,580 --> 00:04:29,910
But he couldn't do it.

82
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,190
My invalid client couldn't do that.

83
00:04:33,380 --> 00:04:34,790
His license was cancelled.

84
00:04:36,330 --> 00:04:37,830
He didn't even have a license.

85
00:04:38,990 --> 00:04:39,940
So what did he say?

86
00:04:40,130 --> 00:04:43,620
“I'll bring a bike
And I'll do it this way."

87
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:45,940
And that's exactly what he did.

88
00:04:46,130 --> 00:04:48,230
He rode his bike to the intersection of Alberta and Vine.

89
00:04:48,430 --> 00:04:49,560
You all know the alcohol store.

90
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,850
He bought a large bottle of whiskey and drank it.

91
00:04:52,050 --> 00:04:53,810
And what did he do? Ride a bike

92
00:04:54,010 --> 00:04:57,040
He drove her straight onto the highway
Where there is active traffic.

93
00:04:58,950 --> 00:05:01,580
Then the big truck driver came.

94
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,490
Finch & Co. driver,
Who drives without paying attention to anything,

95
00:05:05,990 --> 00:05:08,450
He walks down Elm Street, and what does he do?

96
00:05:10,950 --> 00:05:11,990
He collides with Clovis.

97
00:05:12,990 --> 00:05:14,290
He collides with him.

98
00:05:14,830 --> 00:05:16,410
He should be dead.

99
00:05:17,580 --> 00:05:19,160
He should be dead.

100
00:05:19,580 --> 00:05:20,690
You know that song...

101
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,910
"I'm looking for a miracle"

102
00:05:24,910 --> 00:05:26,410
That's a miracle.

103
00:05:27,490 --> 00:05:31,450
That's why we ask you
To search in your hearts and souls

104
00:05:32,370 --> 00:05:34,690
And they gave him just $75 million.

105
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,640
Do you know why? Because they own it.

106
00:05:36,840 --> 00:05:37,990
They have the amount.

107
00:05:38,830 --> 00:05:40,290
They have wealth to pay.

108
00:05:41,450 --> 00:05:44,410
But they know they are powerful
They are trying to eliminate the marginalized.

109
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,520
Then you wonder, "Why $75 million?"
Hey, Willie Gary?

110
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,580
I'll tell you why. Because we have the proof.

111
00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:53,450
The evidence will prove that negligence occurred.

112
00:05:53,950 --> 00:05:58,190
Because Clovis is invalid
He had one thing going well

113
00:05:58,380 --> 00:05:59,560
At that time.

114
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,480
Even though he was drunk and drunk to the max,

115
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,410
He was depressed and suicidal.

116
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,410
My client, the invalid Clovis Tubbs...

117
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:13,700
He had the green signal.

“Isaiah,” “Jeremiah,” and “Lamentations,”
They are Biblical names. Who is this?

This is my junior advisor, Halbert Dawkins.

126
00:07:01,090 --> 00:07:03,100
The name "Hal" is enough. Nice to meet you, Mr. Gary.

127
00:07:03,300 --> 00:07:06,480
You're too young to be a lawyer, young man.
I thought you were his adopted child.

00:07:09,300 --> 00:07:12,690

What do you guys have for Willie Gary?

132
00:07:17,550 --> 00:07:18,480
Is it a case of "z, sh"?

133
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:19,980
Excuse me?

134
00:07:20,180 --> 00:07:22,350
"Z, Sh", personal injury.
Do you have any personal damage?

135
00:07:22,550 --> 00:07:23,940
Didn't you see the sign outside?

136
00:07:24,130 --> 00:07:25,600
These are the only cases we take on.

137
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:26,990
Yes and no.

138
00:07:27,410 --> 00:07:31,980
I think we have a bit of a "z, sh" issue,
But of a different kind.

139
00:07:32,180 --> 00:07:35,390
Different type? Good. How is that

140
00:07:35,590 --> 00:07:36,910
It is a contract law issue.

141
00:07:37,580 --> 00:07:38,560
Contract law?

142
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,310
Come on, we don't handle contract issues here.

143
00:07:41,510 --> 00:07:43,520
No way, these are boring issues.

144
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,270
Yes, we do not handle contract issues.

145
00:07:45,470 --> 00:07:49,060
Yes, we understand that this is not necessarily your field of work,

146
00:07:49,260 --> 00:07:52,370
But maybe you can listen to him.
You will find the issue irresistible.

147
00:07:55,830 --> 00:08:00,540
I am a funeral director
From Biloxi, Mississippi.

148
00:08:01,370 --> 00:08:04,690
I have a business there. But many works.

149
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,040
I have 8 funeral agencies and a burial insurance company.

150
00:08:09,620 --> 00:08:13,140
{\an8}Our business is a family business
And we have been for more than 100 years,

151
00:08:13,340 --> 00:08:16,040
{\an8}And we will not lose it without resistance.

152
00:08:16,620 --> 00:08:20,940
{\an8}After I returned from the war,
My father left me the business,

153
00:08:21,130 --> 00:08:23,370
What I considered precious trust.

154
00:08:23,740 --> 00:08:26,160
Annette and I were blessed with 13 children.

155
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,200
We intend for them to continue to undertake the work in the future.

156
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,200
But about a year ago, I had a financial crisis.

157
00:08:35,830 --> 00:08:37,600
Good evening, gentlemen. How can I serve you?

158
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,600
We come on behalf of the State Insurance Authority.

159
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,520
Mr. O'Keefe, as a certified burial insurance broker

160
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,020
In the state of Mississippi,

161
00:08:45,220 --> 00:08:49,020
You definitely realize that you have to maintain
A certain minimum amount of money

162
00:08:49,220 --> 00:08:50,390
Always in your account.

163
00:08:50,590 --> 00:08:52,120
Yes. Of course I realize that.

164
00:08:54,830 --> 00:08:56,410
{\an8}"Government"

165
00:09:02,910 --> 00:09:04,370
Insurance regulators?

166
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,700
You've got to be kidding me.

167
00:09:07,410 --> 00:09:09,190
What exactly did they say they wanted?

168
00:09:09,380 --> 00:09:11,940
The truth is that I may have gotten myself into a big trouble.

169
00:09:12,130 --> 00:09:13,160
Predicament?

170
00:09:14,580 --> 00:09:18,270
How many years have I been your lawyer, Jerry?

171
00:09:18,470 --> 00:09:20,230
Nearly 30 years?

172
00:09:20,430 --> 00:09:22,200
I was your friend before even that.

173
00:09:22,950 --> 00:09:27,020
We both know
I was in debt for years

174
00:09:27,220 --> 00:09:30,940
Trying to strengthen and sustain this business,

175
00:09:31,130 --> 00:09:33,330
To have something to leave to my children.

176
00:09:36,370 --> 00:09:37,940
Let's not panic now.

177
00:09:38,130 --> 00:09:39,940
I understand how stressful this is,

178
00:09:40,130 --> 00:09:42,870
But I am very confident that we can find a solution.

179
00:09:43,700 --> 00:09:45,600
Wait a minute. Sorry, son.

180
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,270
-Do you want another drink?
- No.

181
00:09:47,470 --> 00:09:49,600
Can I have another glass of bourbon?
When you can?

182
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,240
- Thank you.
- Yes.

183
00:09:55,330 --> 00:09:56,370
So, listen,

184
00:09:57,410 --> 00:10:00,080
Have you thought about selling part of the business?

185
00:10:00,620 --> 00:10:01,540
No.

186
00:10:03,540 --> 00:10:05,160
Just part of it, okay?

187
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,490
I don't mean that I want to, but if I wanted to
Where will I find a buyer?

188
00:10:11,290 --> 00:10:14,410
In Canada, actually. They investigated it.

189
00:10:15,700 --> 00:10:17,440
"Lewin" group? Yes.

190
00:10:17,630 --> 00:10:20,560
They were undertaking a massive acquisition drive.

191
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,190
As they roam around the country,

192
00:10:22,380 --> 00:10:26,240
They buy everything they can
One of the chains of independently owned funeral agencies.

193
00:10:26,660 --> 00:10:29,770
They have a lot of money.

194
00:10:29,970 --> 00:10:32,440
Yes, you know how I feel
About these big companies now.

195
00:10:32,630 --> 00:10:37,540
I know, but I just see it as an option.

196
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,700
It may be a solution to the impasse.

197
00:10:44,830 --> 00:10:46,120
You can think about it.

198
00:10:51,830 --> 00:10:54,330
You're just in time, Jerry.

199
00:10:54,950 --> 00:10:56,980
- Do you want help with this?
- No, I'll manage myself.

200
00:10:57,180 --> 00:10:59,940
Listen. You're sure about this, right?

201
00:11:00,130 --> 00:11:01,850
No, I thought about it a lot

202
00:11:02,050 --> 00:11:04,350
I think it's the right thing to do for my family.

203
00:11:04,550 --> 00:11:07,020
Okay then. Next stop is Vancouver.
Ready to come in?

204
00:11:07,220 --> 00:11:09,140
- We have to wait for Hal.
-Who?

205
00:11:09,340 --> 00:11:11,980
I told you about Hal. He's my son's friend from college.

206
00:11:12,180 --> 00:11:15,310
Very smart young man
He recently started working as a lawyer, and...

207
00:11:15,510 --> 00:11:17,520
Oh shit, here he comes now.

208
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,980
He recently passed the legal certification exam.
He craves experience.

209
00:11:22,180 --> 00:11:23,370
Who is he?

210
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:25,200
Tall boy?

211
00:11:25,950 --> 00:11:28,080
Hello, so sorry, Mr. O'Keefe.

212
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,980
The taxi dropped me off
To the wrong airport lounge.

213
00:11:31,180 --> 00:11:32,230
Don't worry about that.

214
00:11:32,430 --> 00:11:35,120
"Halbert Dawkins",
I want you to meet Mike Allred.

215
00:11:35,950 --> 00:11:37,520
Really nice to meet you, Mr. Allred.

216
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,310
I am very excited to join the team.

217
00:11:39,510 --> 00:11:41,200
Welcome. Nice to meet you too.

218
00:11:42,540 --> 00:11:43,870
Are you a lawyer then?

219
00:11:44,580 --> 00:11:45,450
Yes.

220
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,370
This is great. Congratulations, my son.

221
00:11:49,290 --> 00:11:50,740
I'll see you both inside.

222
00:11:55,450 --> 00:11:57,490
Come on, we're going to Canada.

223
00:11:58,240 --> 00:11:59,350
{\an8}"(Vancouver), (British Columbia)"

224
00:11:59,550 --> 00:12:01,730
{\an8}I work for Ray Lewin.
He is eager to meet you.

225
00:12:01,930 --> 00:12:05,690
You certainly realize that Ray is a very practical man.

226
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,270
He is one of the only CEOs
In industry

227
00:12:08,470 --> 00:12:11,290
Who like to meet every buyer personally.

228
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:16,600
Ray. Let me introduce you
To Mr. Jeremiah O'Keefe and his colleagues.

229
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,520
Nice to meet you, Jerry.

230
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,950
What do you think of the way we do business?
Here in Canada, guys?

231
00:12:23,700 --> 00:12:25,370
Get on the boat. I'll get you a drink.

232
00:12:27,700 --> 00:12:30,810
We currently have 1,115 funeral agencies,

233
00:12:31,010 --> 00:12:33,060
and 427 cemeteries,

234
00:12:33,260 --> 00:12:36,080
And 354 insurance companies.

235
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:41,230
My strategy is simple, and it works
Buy as many funeral agencies as possible

236
00:12:41,430 --> 00:12:45,950
To master what I call him

237
00:12:46,540 --> 00:12:48,700
“The Golden Era of Death.”

238
00:12:50,830 --> 00:12:51,810
Excuse me?

239
00:12:52,010 --> 00:12:54,100
The period of arrival of baby boomers
In "United States"

240
00:12:54,300 --> 00:12:56,270
Finally, until the age of death.

241
00:12:56,470 --> 00:13:02,370
Resulting in an increase of 60 percent
At least in the death rate across the country.

242
00:13:02,830 --> 00:13:06,490
Do you know how many people live in the United States now?

243
00:13:06,950 --> 00:13:10,370
Over the age of 65?

244
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,120
51 million.

245
00:13:17,540 --> 00:13:18,730
This seems ridiculous to me.

246
00:13:18,930 --> 00:13:21,310
Aren't you afraid of losing your client?

247
00:13:21,510 --> 00:13:24,160
My client? Which client? My clients are dead.

248
00:13:29,290 --> 00:13:31,540
I'm just kidding, Jerry.

249
00:13:33,450 --> 00:13:37,810
The more funeral agencies I own,
I made more money,

250
00:13:38,010 --> 00:13:41,560
Which increases my ability to meet my client's requirements

251
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,290
And provide for his growing needs.

252
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,190
Maybe it's time to stop these chats

253
00:13:51,380 --> 00:13:53,600
Let's talk about the deal. What do you think, gentlemen?

254
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,990
I'd love to hear what's on your mind, Ray.

255
00:13:56,660 --> 00:13:57,770
As I understand it

256
00:13:57,970 --> 00:14:01,490
You are facing some problems
With government regulators here.

257
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:03,950
How did you understand this?

258
00:14:04,830 --> 00:14:08,230
How much do you own? 9 agencies across the state?

259
00:14:08,430 --> 00:14:11,480
Rather, I own 8 agencies across the state.

260
00:14:11,680 --> 00:14:14,700
And my business is in insurance, of course.

261
00:14:15,490 --> 00:14:16,850
What do you think about this then?

262
00:14:17,050 --> 00:14:19,690
Sell me 3 of your agencies,

263
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,390
At a fair market value that we will agree on later.

264
00:14:22,590 --> 00:14:27,240
Not only will you keep the bulk of your assets,

265
00:14:27,910 --> 00:14:30,690
This will even provide you with more cash than you need

266
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:32,290
To pay the organizers.

267
00:14:32,950 --> 00:14:35,350
There's something else I want from this deal.

268
00:14:35,550 --> 00:14:38,950
I make most of my profits selling burial insurance.

269
00:14:39,740 --> 00:14:42,770
There is no way my work will last
If you're going to monopolize that too,

270
00:14:42,970 --> 00:14:46,230
So I propose to sell you 3 of my funeral agencies,

271
00:14:46,430 --> 00:14:47,910
at a fair market value,

272
00:14:48,990 --> 00:14:50,980
But you'll have to promise me right now

273
00:14:51,180 --> 00:14:54,790
By not continuing to sell burial insurance
In southern Mississippi.

274
00:15:08,370 --> 00:15:09,330
Okay.

275
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,740
Does this mean we've made the deal?

276
00:15:14,370 --> 00:15:16,810
I'll have my lawyers draw up the contracts

277
00:15:17,010 --> 00:15:18,910
We can conclude it immediately.

278
00:15:24,330 --> 00:15:27,310
What is the reason for the delay? We made this deal...

279
00:15:27,510 --> 00:15:30,730
For almost 4 months now.
They keep re-examining the terms.

280
00:15:30,930 --> 00:15:34,440
When we left Vancouver, they said that was it
It will take a maximum of 30 days.

281
00:15:34,630 --> 00:15:35,770
This is illogical.

282
00:15:35,970 --> 00:15:37,830
- - I find this quite logical.
- Why?

283
00:15:39,790 --> 00:15:41,310
Have you thought about the possibility?

284
00:15:41,510 --> 00:15:44,560
That Lewin doesn't intend to make this deal in the first place?

285
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,600
With all due respect, my son,

286
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,270
You don't know anything about what you're saying.

287
00:15:49,470 --> 00:15:50,410
I think I know.

288
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:52,190
Think about it.

289
00:15:52,380 --> 00:15:54,730
The more he procrastinated, the more he sank into trouble.

290
00:15:54,930 --> 00:15:57,100
First, the insurance authority withdraws your license,

291
00:15:57,300 --> 00:16:00,060
Which means practically destroying your source of livelihood,
Until sooner or later,

292
00:16:00,260 --> 00:16:02,390
You have no choice but to declare bankruptcy.

293
00:16:02,590 --> 00:16:04,440
Not only does Lewin have the 3 agencies,

294
00:16:04,630 --> 00:16:08,060
He can even buy your entire business
In front of your eyes at a cheap price.

295
00:16:08,260 --> 00:16:10,850
Do you think he's really trying to bankrupt me?
He can't do that.

296
00:16:11,050 --> 00:16:12,290
I have a signed contract.

297
00:16:12,990 --> 00:16:16,640
We just signed it,
Without attaching it to a date for conclusion.

298
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,690
I heard that Mr. Lewin
He still sells insurance in the area.

299
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,190
Seriously, stop thinking about conspiracy theories.

300
00:16:22,380 --> 00:16:24,940
Sorry, son.
But you're really paranoid.

301
00:16:25,130 --> 00:16:28,790
Well, can you do me a favor?

302
00:16:29,740 --> 00:16:31,700
Can you stop calling me "brown"?

303
00:16:32,290 --> 00:16:35,450
I'm not your son, Mike.

304
00:16:36,660 --> 00:16:38,240
Take your time, okay?

305
00:16:38,870 --> 00:16:41,730
Do you really want to be taken seriously as a lawyer?
In this city?

306
00:16:41,930 --> 00:16:44,290
- - Who said I'm not?
-Stop it.

307
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,600
Do you really think that Mr. Lewin...

308
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,230
He intends to destroy me?

309
00:16:52,430 --> 00:16:55,700
Yes. Why would he stick to the right timing for us in the first place?

310
00:16:56,450 --> 00:16:58,270
It's over. I will sue him.

311
00:16:58,470 --> 00:17:01,440
You have never sued anyone in your entire life.

312
00:17:01,630 --> 00:17:03,580
I'm at risk of that any time now.

313
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:08,040
Do you think the age is 75 years old?
Is it appropriate to start suing others?

314
00:17:08,870 --> 00:17:10,600
Old people don't file lawsuits.

315
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,770
From what I can see, if someone tries to take advantage of me,

316
00:17:13,970 --> 00:17:16,730
And I know this is wrong, it doesn't matter how old I am.

317
00:17:16,930 --> 00:17:18,640
He tried to put me out of work,

318
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,740
I don't think I can be expected to put up with that.

319
00:17:25,700 --> 00:17:29,290
{\an8}"Hinds County, Mississippi"

320
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,740
{\an8}You came to file a lawsuit.

321
00:17:33,120 --> 00:17:35,950
{\an8}Is this the complaint? Can I see it please?

322
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:44,160
"(Jeremiah J. O'Keefe) Sr
v. Lowen Group Limited.

323
00:17:45,620 --> 00:17:48,410
Looks like an exciting suit. Who do you think will win?

324
00:17:48,870 --> 00:17:50,040
Excuse me?

325
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,060
Oh God, Hal, what are you doing here?

326
00:17:55,260 --> 00:17:56,640
-Do you know what time it is?
-Listen,

327
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:58,640
I know it's late. Very sorry about that.

328
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,240
I found something that I think will be very helpful to our cause.

329
00:18:05,620 --> 00:18:07,910
The excitement continues with another luxurious episode

330
00:18:08,110 --> 00:18:10,770
{\an8}From "Livesails of the Rich and Famous".

331
00:18:10,970 --> 00:18:12,890
You will not believe the amazing journey

332
00:18:13,090 --> 00:18:16,730
{\an8}For the famous personal injury lawyer,
"Willie E. Gary"

333
00:18:16,930 --> 00:18:19,850
{\an8}The man who refused to accept a life sentence of poverty

334
00:18:20,050 --> 00:18:23,080
Because he believed in the American dream.

335
00:18:23,450 --> 00:18:28,020
He was born into a family of immigrant farmers
They work in the sugar cane fields of Florida,

336
00:18:28,220 --> 00:18:31,520
Life was not always easy
In front of Willie Gary.

337
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,480
I've always had a burning desire
To be important.

338
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,520
I knew I would become successful.

339
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,640
He certainly succeeded,

340
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,390
Because "Willie Gary"
Consistently wins million-dollar cases...

341
00:18:41,590 --> 00:18:44,310
Do you suggest I hire this man?
As one of my lawyers?

342
00:18:44,510 --> 00:18:46,640
I know it seems like a crazy idea,

343
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,770
But this guy wins cases. I mean...

344
00:18:49,970 --> 00:18:53,600
{\an8}He owns his own 737 plane
Its name is "Wings of Justice."

345
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,230
{\an8}He also lives a luxurious life
In a mansion of 50 rooms

346
00:18:57,430 --> 00:19:00,140
Along the luxurious Florida coast.

347
00:19:00,340 --> 00:19:03,270
Although no credit goes to Willie.
In decorations,

348
00:19:03,470 --> 00:19:06,390
Because this is the mission of Willy's childhood sweetheart

349
00:19:06,590 --> 00:19:09,600
And his charming and seductive wife, Gloria.

350
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,600
There's something I always try to remind Willie of

351
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,390
He must not forget his origins.

352
00:19:15,590 --> 00:19:16,480
And to remain humble.

353
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,440
Yes, humility is a trait inherent in Willie Gary.

354
00:19:19,630 --> 00:19:22,230
Don't allow anyone to convince you
That there's nothing you can do, okay?

355
00:19:22,430 --> 00:19:23,480
Willie Gary told you so.

356
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,910
- - Fist salute.
- He never forgets his roots, Will...

357
00:19:28,740 --> 00:19:31,600
Believe it or not,
He has an impeccable case record.

358
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:33,890
Presumably he never lost a case
During more than 12 years.

359
00:19:34,090 --> 00:19:37,350
What does he know about contract law?
This is a contract law issue.

360
00:19:37,550 --> 00:19:39,440
The case was filed in Hinds County.

361
00:19:39,630 --> 00:19:42,190
The ratio of blacks to whites is 3 to 1.

362
00:19:42,380 --> 00:19:44,940
Which means we'll have a black judge
by 70 percent,

363
00:19:45,130 --> 00:19:48,730
If we go to trial,
Most likely we will have black jurors as well.

364
00:19:48,930 --> 00:19:49,640
And if so?

365
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:55,350
With all due respect, you can't put a person down
Mike Allred appeared before black jurors.

366
00:19:55,550 --> 00:19:57,020
What's the problem?

367
00:19:57,220 --> 00:20:00,890
He was my lawyer for 30 years.
He is the largest expert in contract law.

368
00:20:01,090 --> 00:20:03,580
Will you make me say this really straight?

369
00:20:06,990 --> 00:20:12,120
It's an extreme example
For the self-important and fanatical southerner.

370
00:20:12,990 --> 00:20:15,990
If a black jury saw a man like that coming...

371
00:20:16,830 --> 00:20:20,080
The idea of us seducing a jury like this, Hal...

372
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,940
This is not an issue of discrimination.

373
00:20:25,130 --> 00:20:28,580
We both know it has nothing to do with race.

374
00:20:33,540 --> 00:20:36,060
I know for a fact
That Mr. Gary will plead a case

375
00:20:36,260 --> 00:20:37,620
In Florida this week.

376
00:20:39,740 --> 00:20:40,690
What if,

377
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:45,790
What if you and I go there?
Just that day to see him in person?

378
00:20:47,490 --> 00:20:51,020
We want to hold the Lewin Group accountable for their actions.

379
00:20:51,220 --> 00:20:53,730
No. This is not what you want.
Rather, you want them to pay the price.

380
00:20:53,930 --> 00:20:55,390
- - To suffer and pay the price.
- Yes.

381
00:20:55,590 --> 00:20:57,490
How much money are you trying to get?

382
00:20:57,910 --> 00:20:59,890
- - 6 million dollars.
- 6 million dollars?

383
00:21:00,090 --> 00:21:03,450
It is full fair market value
In addition to damages.

384
00:21:03,990 --> 00:21:08,620
A civil lawsuit was previously filed
In Hinds County, Mississippi.

385
00:21:09,290 --> 00:21:13,200
What do you think, Mr. Gary? Do you like the case?

386
00:21:15,830 --> 00:21:18,450
Can I give you my personal opinion? Honestly?

387
00:21:18,990 --> 00:21:23,060
Listen, Mr. O'Keefe,
I'm sorry for what Lewin did to you.

388
00:21:23,260 --> 00:21:26,580
Seems like a douchebag and all, but...

389
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,060
This is not one of the issues I handle.

390
00:21:29,260 --> 00:21:31,560
It doesn't suit me.

391
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,600
Wait. What do you mean? What's the problem?

392
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,640
It doesn't suit him because it's not his style.

393
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,940
No, but, sorry, what's the issue?
Which suits "Willy Gary"? I don't know...

394
00:21:40,130 --> 00:21:42,730
In other words, the case that suits me

395
00:21:42,930 --> 00:21:44,690
That's where I have the upper hand,

396
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,100
Where I feel
That I can take her to court, okay?

397
00:21:47,300 --> 00:21:49,230
- - To the end.
- As soon as I bring them to trial...

398
00:21:49,430 --> 00:21:51,560
You saw my tape. When I introduce them,

399
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,520
Especially in front of people like me,

400
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,850
- - I will control them as I want.
- Brilliantly.

401
00:21:56,050 --> 00:21:59,190
The case that fits "Willie Gary"
It is the one in which I take judgment

402
00:21:59,380 --> 00:22:02,060
To take it to the highest level I want,

403
00:22:02,260 --> 00:22:04,350
And I make as much money as possible for my clients.

404
00:22:04,550 --> 00:22:07,940
He means the Willie Gary case.
It's the kind you're guaranteed to win.

405
00:22:08,130 --> 00:22:09,640
This case does not meet the conditions.

406
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,240
In fact, your case is a little weak.

407
00:22:13,950 --> 00:22:17,370
The other thing is this.

408
00:22:18,290 --> 00:22:20,370
Don't misunderstand, but...

409
00:22:21,870 --> 00:22:24,450
It's... you're white. It's white.

410
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:29,190
And I don't have white clients, never have.

411
00:22:29,380 --> 00:22:34,790
I don't mean to be insulting or anything like that.
But this is unusual for me.

412
00:22:36,990 --> 00:22:38,950
I didn't take it as an insult, Mr. Gary.

413
00:22:40,790 --> 00:22:43,240
This man is more famous and richer
To take up our case.

414
00:22:44,790 --> 00:22:47,730
Mr. O'Keefe, just...
- What?

415
00:22:47,930 --> 00:22:49,440
-Give me one moment.
- Where are you going?

416
00:22:49,630 --> 00:22:52,240
I will talk to him again.
Give me 5 minutes, okay?

417
00:22:52,700 --> 00:22:56,580
green light plan,
When I was talking to the only juror...

418
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:58,350
What was she wearing?

419
00:22:58,550 --> 00:23:00,390
I would have looked at it longer perhaps,

420
00:23:00,590 --> 00:23:02,100
To make eye contact with her.

421
00:23:02,300 --> 00:23:04,140
Sometimes you have to affect them emotionally.

422
00:23:04,340 --> 00:23:05,270
This is the thing that...

423
00:23:05,470 --> 00:23:07,730
Mr. Gary, I'm so sorry for coming in like that.

424
00:23:07,930 --> 00:23:10,020
- - I just need a minute.
What is happening? Are you lost?

425
00:23:10,220 --> 00:23:11,230
I'm crazy.

426
00:23:11,430 --> 00:23:13,020
Or did he kick you out in the elevator?

427
00:23:13,220 --> 00:23:17,100
Maybe, but listen,
I need just a minute of your time.

428
00:23:17,300 --> 00:23:18,730
- - A minute?
-Just one minute.

429
00:23:18,930 --> 00:23:21,040
That's all you got, we're busy.
Come on, Hal.

430
00:23:21,620 --> 00:23:24,270
Jerry is the dream agent.

431
00:23:24,470 --> 00:23:27,350
He has a wonderful story, he is a war hero,

432
00:23:27,550 --> 00:23:30,190
He has accolades from them.
He served in World War II.

433
00:23:30,380 --> 00:23:34,200
He received the Distinguished Flying Cross.
For his service to his country.

434
00:23:35,330 --> 00:23:36,730
- Is this just what you have?
- Oh my God.

435
00:23:36,930 --> 00:23:37,850
Is that all?

436
00:23:38,050 --> 00:23:40,350
Didn't World War II happen 50 years ago?

437
00:23:40,550 --> 00:23:43,190
- - Yes. Nobody cares.
- That's from the past, man.

438
00:23:43,380 --> 00:23:47,830
Well, what do you think about this? In 1976,

439
00:23:48,740 --> 00:23:52,450
Jerry served two terms as mayor
In his hometown of Biloxi.

440
00:23:52,740 --> 00:23:54,810
The KKK tried to organize a march...

441
00:23:55,010 --> 00:23:57,120
And prevent them from buying white robes?

442
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:01,100
Damn it man!

443
00:24:01,300 --> 00:24:03,390
I think he's obsessed
By becoming our white savior now.

444
00:24:03,590 --> 00:24:06,370
- - "Ki-ki-ki."
-You seem in love with him.

445
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:08,730
No, that's not what I mean.

446
00:24:08,930 --> 00:24:10,850
I mean, we're bringing this case
In Hinds County.

447
00:24:11,050 --> 00:24:13,480
- - The ratio is 3 to 1...
- Wait, I'll stop you from talking.

448
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,520
I like you, Hal.
I think you come from a respectable family.

449
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,060
But understand how we work here.

450
00:24:18,260 --> 00:24:20,790
First, we do not handle contract law cases.

451
00:24:21,490 --> 00:24:24,100
- - Secondly, we do not have white clients.
- No.

452
00:24:24,300 --> 00:24:26,910
Thirdly, that amount is not enough!

453
00:24:27,490 --> 00:24:28,690
The amount is not enough!

454
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:29,890
Not enough money, Hal.

455
00:24:30,090 --> 00:24:32,690
I love you, but that amount is not enough for us.

456
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,100
Look around you, brother. See where you are?

457
00:24:35,300 --> 00:24:37,690
Don't you see that gold-plated mahogany?

458
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:39,810
-You must see it. He preaches.
- It's luxurious, my dear.

459
00:24:40,010 --> 00:24:43,890
We take cases of 50 or 30
Or $80 million per month.

460
00:24:44,090 --> 00:24:45,060
Okay.

461
00:24:45,260 --> 00:24:47,990
But what do you know about this issue?
Won't it be something bigger?

462
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,240
We don't know.

463
00:24:52,990 --> 00:24:54,540
Do you know something we don't know?

464
00:24:55,950 --> 00:24:58,850
Ray Lewin just happens to be in charge

465
00:24:59,050 --> 00:25:01,740
One of the largest industries in this country.

466
00:25:02,910 --> 00:25:06,410
I'm talking about the death care industry
Which earns $20 billion a year.

467
00:25:07,410 --> 00:25:10,600
There are two huge companies moving forward
To possess everything,

468
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,020
One of them is the "Lewin" group.

469
00:25:13,220 --> 00:25:15,660
What they did to Jerry was so terrible, but...

470
00:25:16,830 --> 00:25:18,810
I have a feeling that this...

471
00:25:19,010 --> 00:25:22,040
No, I know this is just the tip of the iceberg.

472
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:25,560
Can I keep talking?

473
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:26,600
Yes, of course.

474
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,640
You should have started with that point.

475
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,310
You're handling cases worth $80 million,

476
00:25:31,510 --> 00:25:33,640
And you have your own plane. I understand that, it's okay.

477
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,060
Yes. It's called "Wings of Justice."

478
00:25:35,260 --> 00:25:37,020
Great, you know as well as I do

479
00:25:37,220 --> 00:25:40,310
It is regarding
In the elite legal community in this country,

480
00:25:40,510 --> 00:25:43,310
You're just an accident lawyer, no offense meant.

481
00:25:43,510 --> 00:25:44,850
Don't make me scold you now.

482
00:25:45,050 --> 00:25:46,600
That's disrespectful, boy.

483
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:50,870
What if this was the case
Which will highlight your uniqueness?

484
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,660
What if this case launched your fame
At the national level? To become a level...

485
00:25:55,990 --> 00:25:57,200
William Kantzler.

486
00:25:57,950 --> 00:25:59,290
And Clarence Deroux.

487
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:01,240
And Thurgood Marshall.

488
00:26:04,540 --> 00:26:06,200
I mean...

489
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,290
I mean like Johnnie Cochran.

490
00:26:18,830 --> 00:26:23,120
"wings of justice"

491
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:26,770
Never heard of it.

492
00:26:26,970 --> 00:26:29,060
By the way, was this your idea?
Mr. Dawkins?

493
00:26:29,260 --> 00:26:31,810
No, it wasn't his idea, it was mine.

494
00:26:32,010 --> 00:26:33,810
And I realize, Mike, that might make you angry

495
00:26:34,010 --> 00:26:36,020
I would bring in an extra advisor like this, but...

496
00:26:36,220 --> 00:26:37,370
Makes me angry? At all.

497
00:26:37,790 --> 00:26:39,890
This doesn't make me angry...do I look angry?

498
00:26:40,090 --> 00:26:41,270
I'm not angry.

499
00:26:41,470 --> 00:26:43,230
It's your money and you can do whatever you want.

500
00:26:43,430 --> 00:26:45,140
But I just see that you're making a huge mistake.

501
00:26:45,340 --> 00:26:47,850
I am trying to improve our position as much as possible

502
00:26:48,050 --> 00:26:50,230
In case we end up in court.

503
00:26:50,430 --> 00:26:52,390
I understand, but we're not going to trial.

504
00:26:52,590 --> 00:26:55,020
Seriously, what's so special about this guy in the first place?

505
00:26:55,220 --> 00:26:58,810
Hal and I went to Florida.
Let's watch him plead a case before a jury,

506
00:26:59,010 --> 00:27:01,100
I assure you that this man

507
00:27:01,300 --> 00:27:04,040
Can positively motivate jurors.

508
00:27:05,660 --> 00:27:06,660
Yes sir.

509
00:27:09,540 --> 00:27:14,810
If I believe in him that much, I will work with him.

510
00:27:15,010 --> 00:27:16,140
I previously worked in a partnership.

511
00:27:16,340 --> 00:27:19,790
Provided it remains clear
I am still the lead attorney.

512
00:27:21,540 --> 00:27:23,980
I appreciate your sportsmanship
About that, Mike.

513
00:27:24,180 --> 00:27:25,200
No problem.

514
00:27:25,990 --> 00:27:27,730
When is he expected to get here anyway?

515
00:27:27,930 --> 00:27:29,690
I think they have arrived now.

516
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,120
Now?

517
00:27:46,490 --> 00:27:48,480
Jeremiah Laminations, how are you?

518
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,350
- - Good to see you, Willy.
- It's nice to see you. You look fine.

519
00:27:51,550 --> 00:27:53,140
- - What are you doing here?
- Nice to meet you.

520
00:27:53,340 --> 00:27:55,890
Are you getting younger? Are you getting younger?

521
00:27:56,090 --> 00:27:58,440
Willie, let me introduce you to Mike Allred.

522
00:27:58,630 --> 00:28:01,060
Mike, I understand now that we're working together.

523
00:28:01,260 --> 00:28:03,440
And so do I understand. How are you, Mr. Gary?

524
00:28:03,630 --> 00:28:04,580
How do I look to you?

525
00:28:04,990 --> 00:28:07,830
You look great, Willie.

526
00:28:08,450 --> 00:28:10,850
Yes, that's what I mean, I'm fine.

527
00:28:11,050 --> 00:28:12,060
Is this the work room?

528
00:28:12,260 --> 00:28:14,890
We have a meeting room.

529
00:28:15,090 --> 00:28:18,100
I love those books there. I like them all.

530
00:28:18,300 --> 00:28:19,600
This is beautiful.

531
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,600
But before we get to work,

532
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,190
I hope this doesn't bother you, but...

533
00:28:24,380 --> 00:28:25,890
I have some questions to ask.

534
00:28:26,090 --> 00:28:28,490
Of course, ask me anything,
I'm all ears.

535
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:29,990
Good.

536
00:28:30,580 --> 00:28:31,700
The question is,

537
00:28:32,790 --> 00:28:35,080
What do you think about working with black people?

538
00:28:36,950 --> 00:28:37,950
Am I speaking frankly?

539
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:40,190
Is there another way?

540
00:28:40,380 --> 00:28:42,060
No sir. You want an honest answer.

541
00:28:42,260 --> 00:28:43,580
- - I need that.
- Okay.

542
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:45,830
If you want an honest answer,

543
00:28:46,330 --> 00:28:48,770
The truth is, I'm a little biased.

544
00:28:48,970 --> 00:28:50,640
- - Okay.
- I don't mean that I'm proud of that.

545
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:51,850
I appreciate your honesty.

546
00:28:52,050 --> 00:28:53,990
I was working very hard to get over that.

547
00:28:54,870 --> 00:28:57,240
- - I'm glad you're working on it.
- Yes.

548
00:28:57,700 --> 00:28:59,160
Have you met my team?

549
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:01,910
Hello, I'm Chris.

550
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:04,230
Hello Chris.

551
00:29:04,430 --> 00:29:05,690
Yes, Deschamps.

552
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:06,890
"Deschamps."

553
00:29:07,090 --> 00:29:08,120
"Al."

554
00:29:09,700 --> 00:29:10,830
"Reggie Douglas."

555
00:29:11,660 --> 00:29:12,790
Dear gentlemen.

556
00:29:14,330 --> 00:29:16,730
After we have made that clear,

557
00:29:16,930 --> 00:29:18,640
Why don't we go to the conference room?

558
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:20,640
Where is the rest of the team waiting?

559
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,270
- Jerry, we'll work this out, right?
- Yes.

560
00:29:23,470 --> 00:29:25,910
- - He'll be fine.
- Yes.

561
00:29:27,830 --> 00:29:29,690
Good evening, gentlemen! How are you?

562
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:31,100
Are you okay?

563
00:29:31,300 --> 00:29:33,560
Good. For those of you who don't know me,

564
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,940
My name is Willie Gary.
- Tell them who you are.

565
00:29:36,130 --> 00:29:39,390
I brought in some partners from my company
From Florida to here

566
00:29:39,590 --> 00:29:41,060
To help you win this case.

567
00:29:41,260 --> 00:29:44,810
Who among you does not know?
Willie Gary's approach to litigation,

568
00:29:45,010 --> 00:29:46,560
So let me simplify the matter for you.

569
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:48,310
We are about to go to war,

570
00:29:48,510 --> 00:29:50,520
Because I see litigation like that.

571
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:54,480
Litigation is war! It's a fight to the death!

572
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,230
And I'm not talking about anything silly.

573
00:29:56,430 --> 00:29:59,450
Rather, I mean violent confrontations to the extreme!

574
00:30:00,580 --> 00:30:03,950
I know you think I'm crazy,
But that's how I like to be!

575
00:30:04,620 --> 00:30:06,730
And if we don't act crazy with these bastards,

576
00:30:06,930 --> 00:30:09,440
I assure you that the "Lewin" group is very strong.

577
00:30:09,630 --> 00:30:11,950
They have a lot of money and a lot of influence.

578
00:30:12,410 --> 00:30:14,240
They have everything we lack.

579
00:30:14,660 --> 00:30:16,560
But we will not let them intimidate us.

580
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:18,080
Because I am not intimidated.

581
00:30:19,660 --> 00:30:24,310
It is known that I have never lost a case
During the past 12 years.

582
00:30:24,510 --> 00:30:25,600
What is the reason for this?

583
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:27,230
Can you tell me why?

584
00:30:27,430 --> 00:30:28,730
Because I hate losing.

585
00:30:28,930 --> 00:30:31,290
I hate her so much!

586
00:30:31,950 --> 00:30:34,440
I'd rather have someone kill me with a gun

587
00:30:34,630 --> 00:30:35,910
I would lose a case.

588
00:30:38,410 --> 00:30:39,910
After saying this,

589
00:30:41,580 --> 00:30:43,940
I will tell you one thing
I will never give it up.

590
00:30:44,130 --> 00:30:47,980
I do not intend to settle this case.

591
00:30:48,180 --> 00:30:50,040
- - We are not backing down.
- Sorry.

592
00:30:50,700 --> 00:30:52,480
Does anyone mind if I say something?

593
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:53,520
Here you go, Mike.

594
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,770
When it comes to compromise, Mr. Gary,

595
00:30:56,970 --> 00:30:59,600
I'm afraid this is not the strategy
Which we have established here.

596
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:03,370
In fact, I already sent a letter
To Mr. Lewin

597
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,560
He offered to settle for 8 million.

598
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,350
But I'm not keeping a secret from you,

599
00:31:08,550 --> 00:31:11,020
We are ready to reduce the amount
To 7 if necessary.

600
00:31:11,220 --> 00:31:13,690
Thanks for the information, Mike. I appreciate that.

601
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,140
But unfortunately things have changed.

602
00:31:16,340 --> 00:31:17,580
We will not settle.

603
00:31:18,370 --> 00:31:21,810
No matter what I said,
There is still debate,

604
00:31:22,010 --> 00:31:25,200
And it will remain that way until I decide the best way.

605
00:31:28,540 --> 00:31:29,870
Until you decide?

606
00:31:32,290 --> 00:31:33,660
What's going on here, Mike?

607
00:31:34,450 --> 00:31:35,740
Who is responsible?

608
00:31:36,740 --> 00:31:38,330
No, really, who's responsible?

609
00:31:38,870 --> 00:31:41,690
Because you brought in Willie Gary to take over the case.

610
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:43,440
Tell me now what you will do.

611
00:31:43,630 --> 00:31:46,770
I said we wouldn't settle the case,
This is an order issued by the lead lawyer.

612
00:31:46,970 --> 00:31:48,190
- Could you repeat your words?
- What should I repeat?

613
00:31:48,380 --> 00:31:50,060
What's up? Do you need a hearing test?

614
00:31:50,260 --> 00:31:51,270
Sorry sir.

615
00:31:51,470 --> 00:31:52,940
If you threaten violence...
- I'm not.

616
00:31:53,130 --> 00:31:54,770
...You will be punished. Don't mess with me.

617
00:31:54,970 --> 00:31:56,600
Mr. Gary, I'm not the lead attorney.

618
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:58,640
- - What should I be then?
-You are in my city.

619
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:00,230
- - Your city?
- On my conference table.

620
00:32:00,430 --> 00:32:02,520
- - All cities are mine.
-With my client.

621
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,850
If it wasn't, they wouldn't have called me!

622
00:32:05,050 --> 00:32:08,620
Gentlemen, can you calm down a little?

623
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,850
I didn't come to fight you, Mike.
- What?

624
00:32:14,050 --> 00:32:16,160
I said I didn't come to fight you.

625
00:32:16,370 --> 00:32:17,950
Rather, I came to accomplish a mission.

626
00:32:18,950 --> 00:32:20,240
According to my information,

627
00:32:21,290 --> 00:32:23,690
Mr. O'Keefe wants to win this case.

628
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:27,580
And not to submit for a small sum
It amounts to $8 million.

629
00:32:29,950 --> 00:32:31,040
Like scum.

630
00:32:32,490 --> 00:32:35,270
Oh my God, Jerry, what's going on?

631
00:32:35,470 --> 00:32:37,230
I think we should give him a chance.

632
00:32:37,430 --> 00:32:40,480
Did you hear the sermon he just gave?
He doesn't know what he's doing.

633
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,100
He hasn't lost a case in 12 years.

634
00:32:42,300 --> 00:32:44,100
These are personal injury cases.

635
00:32:44,300 --> 00:32:47,120
It is clear that he knows nothing about the real law
And contract law.

636
00:32:49,290 --> 00:32:50,850
What about the position of lead attorney?

637
00:32:51,050 --> 00:32:53,140
You're not thinking about giving him that position.

638
00:32:53,340 --> 00:32:54,370
Yes.

639
00:32:55,490 --> 00:32:57,040
I'm thinking about that.

640
00:33:05,580 --> 00:33:06,490
Do we agree?

641
00:33:07,790 --> 00:33:08,740
Yes.

642
00:33:09,740 --> 00:33:11,120
Are you satisfied, Mike?

643
00:33:11,740 --> 00:33:13,440
Well, since we all agree,

644
00:33:13,630 --> 00:33:16,700
Would anyone mind some dictation?

645
00:33:17,290 --> 00:33:20,020
Cynthia, can you write down...
What does Mr. Gary dictate?

646
00:33:20,220 --> 00:33:22,690
Well, Cynthia, I appreciate that.

647
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:28,370
Well, this is directed to Mr. Ray Lewin,
Chairman of the "Lewin" Group.

648
00:33:29,540 --> 00:33:31,850
Dear Mr. Lewin, my name is Willie E. Gary.

649
00:33:32,050 --> 00:33:36,370
I was just appointed senior advisor
In the case against you

650
00:33:36,660 --> 00:33:38,240
By Jeremiah O'Keefe.

651
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,040
With regard to the previous settlement,

652
00:33:41,580 --> 00:33:45,290
which I received and offered $8 million,

653
00:33:46,290 --> 00:33:48,990
I hereby cancel it.

654
00:33:49,870 --> 00:33:52,120
As of the date of this letter,

655
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,200
The new offer is an amount

656
00:33:56,290 --> 00:33:57,700
$100 million.”

657
00:33:58,830 --> 00:34:01,480
- This is what is required.
-Did he say $100 million?

658
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,190
- - With 8 zeros?
- 100 million.

659
00:34:03,380 --> 00:34:05,310
Why don't you all calm down? Do you understand me?

660
00:34:05,510 --> 00:34:08,020
This is more than our original claim
With 94 million dollars.

661
00:34:08,220 --> 00:34:10,980
Seems to me like your original claim
It was 94 million less.

662
00:34:11,180 --> 00:34:13,810
- Mr. Gary, perhaps you can help...
- 100 million?

663
00:34:14,010 --> 00:34:17,100
This is ridiculous and you know it.
Are you trying to undermine this issue?

664
00:34:17,300 --> 00:34:20,390
Has anyone ever told you that you are a coward?

665
00:34:20,590 --> 00:34:23,770
Willie, I'm afraid I agree with everyone's concerns.

666
00:34:23,970 --> 00:34:25,520
That is a large amount of money.

667
00:34:25,720 --> 00:34:29,270
If we demand such a sum, we will insult ourselves.

668
00:34:29,470 --> 00:34:32,620
I understand how you feel, Jerry.
But you have to trust me, okay?

669
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:34,540
- - Understood?
- Yes, sir.

670
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:37,540
Everyone should trust me. Okay?

671
00:34:38,370 --> 00:34:39,790
Where were we, Cynthia?

672
00:34:40,580 --> 00:34:43,230
{\an8}"Beginning with this letter,
Our new demand for a settlement...

673
00:34:43,430 --> 00:34:44,580
{\an8}"(Vancouver), (British Columbia)"

674
00:34:45,240 --> 00:34:47,160
"...it's $100 million."

675
00:34:47,580 --> 00:34:49,230
- - No.
- What?

676
00:34:49,430 --> 00:34:51,440
Come on, this must be a joke.

677
00:34:51,630 --> 00:34:53,560
- - Is he crazy?
- Yes, 8 zeros.

678
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,600
There's no way this isn't a joke!

679
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,790
- That's a joke.
- It looks like a lot of zeros.

680
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:00,200
Sure.

681
00:35:01,370 --> 00:35:04,740
God, O'Keefe's a special guy, right?

682
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,560
Who is the clown who hired him as a lawyer?

683
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,120
It appears to be a man named Willie Gary.

684
00:35:11,990 --> 00:35:14,190
Thanks, Bob. I also read the message.

685
00:35:14,380 --> 00:35:17,370
But my question is, who really is he?

686
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,740
What's his story? Where did O'Keefe find him?

687
00:35:21,330 --> 00:35:23,190
From what we could know,

688
00:35:23,380 --> 00:35:27,980
He is a show-stopping personal injury lawyer
From Florida.

689
00:35:28,180 --> 00:35:29,810
- - Whoever profits from accidents...
- Personal damage?

690
00:35:30,010 --> 00:35:31,520
This is a contract dispute.

691
00:35:31,720 --> 00:35:36,140
Why hire a personal injury attorney for a contract dispute?

692
00:35:36,340 --> 00:35:38,640
Maybe they don't have regular lawyers

693
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,690
In desolate Mississippi.

694
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,600
-You should talk more about this.
- It turns out that the case has been filed

695
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:47,270
In a remote county in the south of the state,
Her name is Hinds.

696
00:35:47,470 --> 00:35:48,830
And if so?

697
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:52,730
It also happens to be Hinds County
one of the poorest,

698
00:35:52,930 --> 00:35:54,620
About 70 percent of its population...

699
00:35:56,620 --> 00:35:58,040
Of blacks.

700
00:36:00,490 --> 00:36:02,700
This is why he appointed him.

701
00:36:04,740 --> 00:36:05,990
Because he is black.

702
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:09,410
Gary is black.

703
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,200
He is African American.

704
00:36:31,660 --> 00:36:35,640
As my grandfather said. "Whoever it is..."

705
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:37,810
Enough. I'm not worried about it.

706
00:36:38,010 --> 00:36:40,480
Reg, don't you understand the confusion...

707
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:41,640
Sorry to interrupt.

708
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:45,140
We just brought the information you requested
Who appointed Lewin as a key advisor?

709
00:36:45,340 --> 00:36:47,450
-Can I see that?
Who is he? Do you know him?

710
00:36:50,700 --> 00:36:52,450
- - She.
- She?

711
00:36:53,290 --> 00:36:54,940
What do you mean by "she"?

712
00:36:55,130 --> 00:36:56,810
What do you mean by "she"?

713
00:36:57,010 --> 00:36:59,580
- "She", that is...
- A woman?

714
00:37:00,540 --> 00:37:02,450
Its name is "Mem Downs".

715
00:37:05,450 --> 00:37:08,120
She received her bachelor's degree from Howard University.

716
00:37:08,790 --> 00:37:11,770
This means she is not just a woman. And even black.

717
00:37:11,970 --> 00:37:12,810
She's a black sister.

718
00:37:13,010 --> 00:37:15,440
What a surprise! They overtook us
By choosing a black woman,

719
00:37:15,630 --> 00:37:16,910
In one fell swoop.

720
00:37:23,870 --> 00:37:26,940
She graduated first in her class
From Harvard Law School.

721
00:37:27,130 --> 00:37:28,410
Wow.

722
00:37:31,910 --> 00:37:33,600
Then I worked as a writer for two years

723
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:37,660
By Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Conner.

724
00:37:40,790 --> 00:37:42,770
And 3 years as assistant to Paul Weiss.

725
00:37:42,970 --> 00:37:48,200
She is currently the youngest partner ever
In Cranston Brown & Atwell.

726
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:50,060
This is great.

727
00:37:50,260 --> 00:37:52,770
I have a friend who worked with her at CB&A.

728
00:37:52,970 --> 00:37:55,690
And in fact

729
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:58,230
He told me they used to call her a nickname in the office.

730
00:37:58,430 --> 00:37:59,540
What is the nickname?

731
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:01,370
Is this true?

732
00:38:02,290 --> 00:38:03,950
The snake.

733
00:38:04,740 --> 00:38:06,810
Based on her own style
During the cross-examination of the opponent.

734
00:38:07,010 --> 00:38:07,890
- - Yes.
- Yes.

735
00:38:08,090 --> 00:38:10,440
Where she used to attack by surprise.

736
00:38:10,630 --> 00:38:13,270
Okay, Miss Snake, but you know what?

737
00:38:13,470 --> 00:38:14,640
This is a very descriptive title.

738
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,580
Do you know something? I'm a boa constrictor.

739
00:38:18,450 --> 00:38:19,560
Let's see what you have.

740
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,730
Maybe we should call the TV company.

741
00:38:22,930 --> 00:38:25,230
Whenever I try to turn on Turner Broadcasting,

742
00:38:25,430 --> 00:38:27,790
I find just a blank screen.

743
00:38:28,240 --> 00:38:29,850
I think there is something wrong with it.

744
00:38:30,050 --> 00:38:32,660
There's nothing wrong with it. You have unsubscribed.

745
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,100
What do you mean by this?

746
00:38:35,300 --> 00:38:38,540
Annie, the insurance regulators are here again
The day before.

747
00:38:39,370 --> 00:38:41,700
This time they suspended my license.

748
00:38:42,410 --> 00:38:44,730
I will have to close the business for a while.

749
00:38:44,930 --> 00:38:46,080
What?

750
00:38:47,540 --> 00:38:48,940
What do you mean?

751
00:38:49,130 --> 00:38:51,810
That's only temporary. Once we finish this trial,

752
00:38:52,010 --> 00:38:54,600
Lewin pays the compensation, we go back to work...

753
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,410
Do you hear what you're saying, Jerry?

754
00:38:57,540 --> 00:39:00,330
As soon as Ray Lewin pays the compensation?

755
00:39:02,370 --> 00:39:05,200
Are you really sure this even happened?

756
00:39:09,700 --> 00:39:12,700
And you still haven't told me
How are we going to pay for all of this?

757
00:39:13,490 --> 00:39:16,950
The new senior lawyer
Which I brought from Florida.

758
00:39:17,580 --> 00:39:19,580
You don't have to worry about it.

759
00:39:21,950 --> 00:39:24,310
I don't understand why

760
00:39:24,510 --> 00:39:27,330
You continue with this ridiculous case.

761
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,560
You can find another buyer for these 3 agencies.

762
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:31,790
You know that.

763
00:39:33,490 --> 00:39:35,700
Obviously it's about something else for you.

764
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:39,640
That may be true.
Maybe I don't want to see him get away with it.

765
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:41,790
Who? "Ray Lewin"?

766
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,200
Oh my God, Jerry!

767
00:39:45,910 --> 00:39:48,540
Why are you obsessed with this guy?

768
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:51,640
What do you expect me to do, Annie?

769
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:53,950
Do I sit back and let it destroy me?

770
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,120
And let him destroy our family?

771
00:39:57,950 --> 00:39:59,660
I expect you...

772
00:40:01,410 --> 00:40:04,830
Think of me sometime.

773
00:40:06,740 --> 00:40:08,450
You don't think we can win.

774
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:15,890
If you want to know how I'll pay the costs,

775
00:40:16,090 --> 00:40:18,200
She took out a third mortgage
On this house.

776
00:40:27,580 --> 00:40:29,480
But I did everything I could.

777
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,940
- - How are you?
- I saw the tip of a thread guiding me now.

778
00:40:32,130 --> 00:40:33,060
Tell me, Willie.

779
00:40:33,260 --> 00:40:34,990
How did you end up becoming a lawyer?

780
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:43,390
It depends on what you want to know.
Do you want the short or long story?

781
00:40:43,590 --> 00:40:45,040
It's up to you.

782
00:40:45,910 --> 00:40:49,700
When I was a young husband

783
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:53,480
And a little father,
My wife and I had little money,

784
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,040
So we owned a landscaping business.

785
00:40:56,410 --> 00:40:57,480
It was very beautiful too.

786
00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:01,620
We took care of all the gardens beautifully.

787
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:05,100
Then my wife said
“I want to move to a bigger house.”

788
00:41:05,300 --> 00:41:07,200
So I said, "Let's do it then."

789
00:41:08,490 --> 00:41:10,870
So I brought the newspaper and saw the ad.

790
00:41:11,660 --> 00:41:14,480
Three bedroom apartment, very beautiful.

791
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:19,060
In a new and beautiful residential complex in the Al-Baidh neighborhood.

792
00:41:19,260 --> 00:41:20,160
In Raintree.

793
00:41:20,910 --> 00:41:22,520
I said, "Yes, this is what we need."

794
00:41:22,720 --> 00:41:23,980
I called the owner and said, "Hey,

795
00:41:24,180 --> 00:41:27,310
My family and I are looking for a new home.

796
00:41:27,510 --> 00:41:29,480
We want to come to you.”

797
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,230
I said, "Do you have any empty houses?"

798
00:41:31,430 --> 00:41:34,020
He replied, “Yes, I have a lot of them.”

799
00:41:34,220 --> 00:41:36,640
In fact, at the end of the month,

800
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:38,230
You can move in and sign the lease.”

801
00:41:38,430 --> 00:41:40,190
We were all looking forward to that day.

802
00:41:40,380 --> 00:41:43,540
We were very excited about new beginnings,
So to speak.

803
00:41:44,290 --> 00:41:46,640
When the awaited day came,
I put everyone in the car,

804
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:52,020
I put the boys, my wife and my dog up.

805
00:41:52,220 --> 00:41:54,240
We were very pleased.

806
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:56,520
We listen to gospel music.

807
00:41:56,720 --> 00:41:59,200
We sing and dance.

808
00:42:00,540 --> 00:42:04,040
But when we got there,

809
00:42:04,700 --> 00:42:05,730
A man came out to us,

810
00:42:05,930 --> 00:42:08,270
So I said, "How are you?" He said, "What do you want?"

811
00:42:08,470 --> 00:42:10,730
I replied, “I was the one who called you
Concerning empty housing.

812
00:42:10,930 --> 00:42:12,200
He said, "What empty houses?"

813
00:42:12,910 --> 00:42:16,640
So I said, "I'm Willie Gary."
"I called you about the empty dorms."

814
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,660
He replied, "We no longer have empty houses."

815
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:24,370
What did you do?

816
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:27,370
I'll tell you what I wanted to do.

817
00:42:28,870 --> 00:42:30,080
I wanted to get him.

818
00:42:31,410 --> 00:42:35,950
He insulted me like this in front of my children.

819
00:42:36,790 --> 00:42:38,240
My children appreciate me.

820
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:41,730
I am everything to them. What will I tell them?

821
00:42:41,930 --> 00:42:45,790
Their father is not fit to live in an apartment?

822
00:42:46,990 --> 00:42:48,450
What do I say to my wife?

823
00:42:49,870 --> 00:42:51,450
Are we not worthy of this?

824
00:42:57,330 --> 00:42:58,660
But I didn't act angry.

825
00:43:00,290 --> 00:43:02,790
But I went back to that hotel

826
00:43:03,450 --> 00:43:05,240
I opened the phone book.

827
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,850
I never thought about being a lawyer until this happened.

828
00:43:09,050 --> 00:43:13,240
I opened it and when I saw the first law school,
I said, "I'll wear this."

829
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:15,140
I did it.

830
00:43:15,340 --> 00:43:18,790
I went to college and worked hard
I graduated and obtained a law degree.

831
00:43:20,700 --> 00:43:22,160
I established my own law firm.

832
00:43:23,240 --> 00:43:25,390
And the first thing I did

833
00:43:25,590 --> 00:43:27,540
He's going to Raintree Apartments.

834
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:33,040
To rock them with a lawsuit
Charged with 5 counts of discrimination.

835
00:43:35,490 --> 00:43:37,240
Let them face this against their empty homes.

836
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:40,330
You are a fighter.

837
00:43:41,580 --> 00:43:42,620
Yes.

838
00:43:42,990 --> 00:43:45,940
I'm a fighter, and so are you, Jerry.

839
00:43:46,130 --> 00:43:47,270
You are a fighter.

840
00:43:47,470 --> 00:43:49,230
Do you know why I say you're a fighter?

841
00:43:49,430 --> 00:43:52,230
Because you're facing this massive Lewin group,

842
00:43:52,430 --> 00:43:54,730
You are a small business owner. This is special, sir.

843
00:43:54,930 --> 00:43:56,240
This is what makes us fit together.

844
00:43:56,910 --> 00:43:58,330
What prompted you to do this?

845
00:43:59,370 --> 00:44:03,290
Because he tried to mess with what matters most to me in life.

846
00:44:03,870 --> 00:44:05,390
It is the ability to leave something behind

847
00:44:05,590 --> 00:44:07,990
For my children and grandchildren when I'm gone.

848
00:44:10,370 --> 00:44:11,990
They have a legacy, Willie.

849
00:44:13,740 --> 00:44:16,290
I intend to give it to them.

850
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,390
- - Let's play the music.
-I love music, Willy.

851
00:44:23,590 --> 00:44:26,850
Good. Why don't you go play some music, Steve?

852
00:44:27,050 --> 00:44:28,980
Of course, President. Want specific music?

853
00:44:29,180 --> 00:44:31,270
You know my music, man. "Tony! Tony! Tony!"

854
00:44:31,470 --> 00:44:33,690
- - A wise choice, my brother.
-I like that.

855
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,990
You know what's crazy about "Tony! Tony! Tony!"?
None of them are named "Tony."

856
00:44:37,910 --> 00:44:39,120
Here's the song.

857
00:44:46,830 --> 00:44:48,660
I like the song. Do you like it, Jer?

858
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:50,980
- Do you like this, Jer?
- Yes, she is beautiful.

859
00:44:51,180 --> 00:44:52,450
Yes, do you feel good?

860
00:44:57,790 --> 00:44:59,350
No, come to our side!

861
00:44:59,550 --> 00:45:02,700
You are my friend, man.

862
00:45:03,490 --> 00:45:07,450
{\an8}"Jackson, Mississippi"

863
00:45:09,660 --> 00:45:10,850
- Hello.
- Hello.

864
00:45:11,050 --> 00:45:12,690
Welcome to the InterContinental Hotel.

865
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,540
Thank you. I have a reservation under the name "Gary", "Willie Gary".

866
00:45:15,950 --> 00:45:18,100
Of course, and welcome to Jackson.
Mr. Gary.

867
00:45:18,300 --> 00:45:20,230
- Thank you.
- If you have a credit card,

868
00:45:20,430 --> 00:45:23,520
I can arrange things for you all. Thank you.

869
00:45:23,720 --> 00:45:26,850
Well, don't look now,
But that's Lewin's legal team.

870
00:45:27,050 --> 00:45:27,950
Hey, where?

871
00:45:32,620 --> 00:45:34,690
God, it's an elitist group

872
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:36,810
One of the most prominent black lawyers in the country.

873
00:45:37,010 --> 00:45:38,440
Do you know them all?

874
00:45:38,630 --> 00:45:41,160
That guy over there is Howard Pfeiffer.

875
00:45:41,830 --> 00:45:43,520
He is a former state representative

876
00:45:43,720 --> 00:45:46,060
and current president of the DC Bar Association.

877
00:45:46,260 --> 00:45:48,460
That man is Richard Mayfield.

878
00:45:48,660 --> 00:45:50,140
He is one of the leading experts

879
00:45:50,340 --> 00:45:52,690
In antitrust litigation
and complex commercial litigation.

880
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:55,690
And that gentleman over there is Walter Bell.

881
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:58,270
He's a former judge
In the Supreme Court of Mississippi.

882
00:45:58,470 --> 00:46:01,600
Wow. It must be "Lewin"
Spend a fortune on these.

883
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:04,230
It doesn't look as bad as I expected.

884
00:46:04,430 --> 00:46:07,640
What's her name? "Mommy"? "Mem"? “Mammy Downs”?

885
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:09,440
truly? Is that all you have to say?

886
00:46:09,630 --> 00:46:12,870
Yes, that's all I have to say.
Because they all seem stupid to me.

887
00:46:13,410 --> 00:46:15,190
In fact. Can you do me a favor?

888
00:46:15,380 --> 00:46:18,850
Can you send me your best bottle of champagne?
To that table?

889
00:46:19,050 --> 00:46:20,940
- - Of course. Do you prefer a specific quality?
- What do you have?

890
00:46:21,130 --> 00:46:24,310
- - Do we have "Dom" or "Moi" or "Crystal"?
- "Crystal."

891
00:46:24,510 --> 00:46:26,020
This is what we want. Send Crystal.

892
00:46:26,220 --> 00:46:29,620
Make sure to say it's a gift from Willie Gary.

893
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:31,940
Really man, please don't do that.

894
00:46:32,130 --> 00:46:34,450
Seriously, Hal, shut up.

895
00:46:34,790 --> 00:46:37,290
Listen, I always say this.

896
00:46:37,740 --> 00:46:40,040
If you see me facing an opponent,
So he helped me provoke him.

897
00:46:40,330 --> 00:46:42,580
We will provoke the opponent a little.

898
00:46:44,450 --> 00:46:48,310
Or we'll keep the strategy simple
We strongly promote the authenticity of the document

899
00:46:48,510 --> 00:46:50,480
As a contract in the mind of the jurors.

900
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:52,690
Of course this will be a defense strategy as well.

901
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,310
But they will focus on proving that it is not a contract.

902
00:46:55,510 --> 00:46:56,730
We have to be frank about this.

903
00:46:56,930 --> 00:46:58,890
They will be much better at this than us.

904
00:46:59,090 --> 00:47:01,440
As their area of expertise.

905
00:47:01,630 --> 00:47:05,100
I think we should forget about this confusing contract.

906
00:47:05,300 --> 00:47:08,850
Where we bombard jurors with information
We know they don't care about her.

907
00:47:09,050 --> 00:47:10,890
I see that's what we need to do

908
00:47:11,090 --> 00:47:13,850
What must be proven is the motive.

909
00:47:14,050 --> 00:47:16,100
Let us focus our argument directly on an issue

910
00:47:16,300 --> 00:47:18,200
“Lewin” Group’s procrastination in concluding the deal

911
00:47:18,700 --> 00:47:20,230
Let's find out what they would have gained.

912
00:47:20,430 --> 00:47:21,690
I'm not very sure.

913
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:24,350
- - What are you not sure about?
- What, Hal?

914
00:47:24,550 --> 00:47:26,060
I'm not so sure we can

915
00:47:26,260 --> 00:47:28,640
Prove that Lewin's group had a motive.

916
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:30,980
Unless we have an internal memo in the company,

917
00:47:31,180 --> 00:47:32,910
Or for someone to openly admit it.

918
00:47:33,410 --> 00:47:36,690
How can you prove that the procrastination was intentional?

919
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,870
Obviously we will never be able to prove this.

920
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,790
The truth is that we have a chance
It is very weak to win this case.

921
00:47:58,490 --> 00:47:59,850
Hello.

922
00:48:00,050 --> 00:48:01,810
- Are you okay?
I'm fine

923
00:48:02,010 --> 00:48:05,390
How about you give me your strongest ginger ale?

924
00:48:05,590 --> 00:48:07,480
Of course. I will bring it immediately.

925
00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:08,980
How was your night?

926
00:48:09,180 --> 00:48:10,640
Not too bad. Here I am standing.

927
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:12,330
Yes.

928
00:48:13,830 --> 00:48:16,020
The strongest ginger ale in Mississippi.

929
00:48:16,220 --> 00:48:17,330
Thank you.

930
00:48:17,830 --> 00:48:20,040
Yeah, it's not too bad, so...

931
00:48:21,620 --> 00:48:23,160
She's been here for a while.

932
00:48:28,950 --> 00:48:30,870
I think you're Miss Downs, right?

933
00:48:32,660 --> 00:48:33,700
I'm Willie Gary.

934
00:48:36,490 --> 00:48:38,080
You look thinner on TV.

935
00:48:38,700 --> 00:48:39,950
Can I sit down?

936
00:48:46,580 --> 00:48:48,480
In fact, I've never done this before.

937
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:52,290
Where I sit with the opposing counsel and...

938
00:48:52,950 --> 00:48:56,660
To share a drink along with music and candles.

939
00:48:57,490 --> 00:49:00,120
It's like we're on a romantic date.

940
00:49:04,700 --> 00:49:05,790
Or maybe we're not.

941
00:49:08,620 --> 00:49:11,270
You said you're from Compton, but I'm trying to understand

942
00:49:11,470 --> 00:49:14,310
Why are you taking on all these fancy egg cases?

943
00:49:14,510 --> 00:49:16,600
I can ask you the same question, right?

944
00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:19,640
Yeah, but I actually
I believe in my case, Miss Downs.

945
00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:21,480
I believe in my cause, too, Mr. Gary.

946
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:23,810
So this puts us
In a very risky situation.

947
00:49:24,010 --> 00:49:25,980
Because one of us will win and the other will lose.

948
00:49:26,180 --> 00:49:27,560
I think it works like that, yeah.

949
00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:31,560
But it's different in my situation
Because I work for black people.

950
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:33,440
I don't work for white people.

951
00:49:33,630 --> 00:49:36,060
I work for Willie Gary, which is me.

952
00:49:36,260 --> 00:49:39,230
- - I am an employee of myself.
Tell me

953
00:49:39,430 --> 00:49:40,890
Where am I supposed to work?

954
00:49:41,090 --> 00:49:42,770
Tell me. Come on, guide me.

955
00:49:42,970 --> 00:49:45,020
Any small opportunity at work

956
00:49:45,220 --> 00:49:47,560
Can you feel comfortable giving it to someone like me?

957
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:49,230
What? Should I work for free?

958
00:49:49,430 --> 00:49:52,640
Or do I have to work in a crappy prosecutor's office?
To handle eviction cases?

959
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:54,980
Will this comfort you? Am I happier with this?

960
00:49:55,180 --> 00:49:58,480
Wait. We are not currently on trial.

961
00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:01,690
You said you're trying to guide me, so go for it.

962
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:05,450
I don't know how much you know about me, but I'm a farmer's son.

963
00:50:05,870 --> 00:50:09,980
I was 8 years old in the sugar cane fields,

964
00:50:10,180 --> 00:50:12,480
And I work there.

965
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:15,950
Now, I have...

966
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:19,830
Rolls Royce and Bentley palaces and cars...

967
00:50:20,620 --> 00:50:23,410
- - And my private plane.
- It seems to me

968
00:50:23,830 --> 00:50:27,040
That we both live our own version
Of the American dream.

969
00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:31,080
With a slightly more American flavor than white

970
00:50:33,240 --> 00:50:35,160
And closer to black and...

971
00:50:40,540 --> 00:50:43,690
Although I believe in the black American dream

972
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,600
Very different from the white American dream.
This is an example of what I said.

973
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:49,980
- - It took 5 to 15 minutes.
- O.J.'s trial.

974
00:50:50,180 --> 00:50:52,830
- - It will be the "trial of the century."
- She's a joke.

975
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:54,100
Do you want to discuss it?

976
00:50:54,300 --> 00:50:56,350
No, it's morally questionable.

977
00:50:56,550 --> 00:50:57,480
Which side do you lean towards?

978
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,230
Is he innocent or guilty?

979
00:51:00,430 --> 00:51:01,700
It doesn't matter.

980
00:51:02,870 --> 00:51:05,560
Because OJ's not the one on trial now.

981
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:07,080
Justice is achieved by white people,

982
00:51:07,450 --> 00:51:08,850
This is what is being judged.

983
00:51:09,050 --> 00:51:09,950
I understand what you mean.

984
00:51:11,330 --> 00:51:12,660
What if I was forced to answer?

985
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:16,140
- - Forced? no.
-You are obliged to answer, Miss Downs.

986
00:51:16,340 --> 00:51:17,810
Seriously, you're forcing me.

987
00:51:18,010 --> 00:51:20,190
- - You are forced.
- Did anyone hear this? Impossible.

988
00:51:20,380 --> 00:51:25,270
You have the opportunity to be the main advisor
To defend or prosecute,

989
00:51:25,470 --> 00:51:27,020
Who will you choose?

990
00:51:27,220 --> 00:51:29,390
This is a confusing question.

991
00:51:29,590 --> 00:51:30,990
- Yes, it's difficult.
-I choose defense.

992
00:51:32,580 --> 00:51:33,740
He's guilty.

993
00:51:34,410 --> 00:51:37,730
I have never defended anyone I knew was guilty.

994
00:51:37,930 --> 00:51:41,350
It is said that lawyers should
Try it at least once.

995
00:51:41,550 --> 00:51:45,730
Remember these words.
If the accusation is not compelling, you must be acquitted.

996
00:51:45,930 --> 00:51:47,020
What about you?

997
00:51:47,220 --> 00:51:48,850
We'll talk about that...

998
00:51:49,050 --> 00:51:51,100
- - I choose the claim.
- Really?

999
00:51:51,300 --> 00:51:53,370
I have a recurring dream

1000
00:51:54,290 --> 00:51:59,310
Where I take charge of the prosecution in a case
Against the malicious "Johnny Cochran".

1001
00:51:59,510 --> 00:52:01,520
He and all the posh, brown lawyers...

1002
00:52:01,720 --> 00:52:03,490
Well, how does this dream end?

1003
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:05,870
It ends with his defeat.

1004
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:08,870
Defeated him badly.

1005
00:52:13,370 --> 00:52:14,520
Let me pay the bill.

1006
00:52:14,720 --> 00:52:15,700
Of course not.

1007
00:52:17,620 --> 00:52:19,160
I was so...

1008
00:52:19,740 --> 00:52:23,730
You were so kind and generous by sending me a bottle...

1009
00:52:23,930 --> 00:52:25,450
- - What is the name of the drink?
- "Crystal."

1010
00:52:26,370 --> 00:52:28,830
Let me return the favor just this once.

1011
00:52:29,410 --> 00:52:34,160
Although I won't get much used to it
For being so kind, Mr. Gary.

1012
00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:37,870
Because once we start the trial,

1013
00:52:38,540 --> 00:52:40,330
I will destroy you, man.

1014
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:44,450
Good night.

1015
00:52:47,620 --> 00:52:48,890
{\an8}"September 12, 1995"

1016
00:52:49,090 --> 00:52:51,100
{\an8}Good morning, Jackson in Mississippi,

1017
00:52:51,300 --> 00:52:54,270
{\an8}The temperature is 23 and rising to 25.

1018
00:52:54,470 --> 00:52:57,040
No rain is expected
In the next few days.

1019
00:53:01,620 --> 00:53:03,950
We'll start by saying that this is the case

1020
00:53:04,910 --> 00:53:08,410
What you are about to hear is a case...

1021
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:11,660
"Willie William." Italian William.

1022
00:53:19,870 --> 00:53:21,560
Jurors, this is...

1023
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:27,390
This trial
You face the oldest sin known to man.

1024
00:53:27,590 --> 00:53:29,790
You're exaggerating the point.

1025
00:53:31,990 --> 00:53:34,100
It wasn't simply personal.

1026
00:53:34,300 --> 00:53:36,410
It's just work, and they had...

1027
00:53:37,540 --> 00:53:38,370
Fuck.

1028
00:53:58,370 --> 00:54:00,310
- - Hey.
-What's the matter...

1029
00:54:00,510 --> 00:54:02,350
We cannot separate at the pillar.

1030
00:54:02,550 --> 00:54:03,980
- For your sake, man.
-You know this.

1031
00:54:04,180 --> 00:54:05,770
- - Is this new to you?
- It's a bad omen.

1032
00:54:05,970 --> 00:54:07,230
Bad omen will befall us.

1033
00:54:07,430 --> 00:54:08,540
Come on.

1034
00:54:15,870 --> 00:54:18,480
Let everyone stand up.

1035
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:21,600
The court session is now in session after postponement.

1036
00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:23,140
Listen.

1037
00:54:23,340 --> 00:54:25,730
All those who have a case in this honorable court,

1038
00:54:25,930 --> 00:54:29,040
Come closer, pay attention, and you will be heard.

1039
00:54:29,870 --> 00:54:33,190
The Honorable Judge James E. Graves,
Circuit County Judge

1040
00:54:33,380 --> 00:54:36,910
He heads the First Judicial Circuit
In Hinds County, Mississippi.

1041
00:54:38,910 --> 00:54:43,040
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, how are you?

1042
00:54:44,410 --> 00:54:45,600
Thank you for coming.

1043
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:49,520
This issue is centered
About the oldest sin known to man.

1044
00:54:49,720 --> 00:54:51,940
Contracts, plain and simple.

1045
00:54:52,130 --> 00:54:56,190
Mr. Gary would have you believe
This case revolves around...

1046
00:54:56,380 --> 00:54:59,640
- - Greed.
-And while that sounds exciting

1047
00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:01,560
And a little dramatic...

1048
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,140
We know for a fact that the deal was approved

1049
00:55:04,340 --> 00:55:05,230
Lewin and its Board of Directors.

1050
00:55:05,430 --> 00:55:10,100
They formulated, defined and recorded each item in writing.

1051
00:55:10,300 --> 00:55:11,190
This is a contract.

1052
00:55:11,380 --> 00:55:14,980
How can it be a binding contract between two parties?

1053
00:55:15,180 --> 00:55:17,190
If neither party signs it?

1054
00:55:17,380 --> 00:55:18,870
They lied.

1055
00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:23,980
That's how it boils down.

1056
00:55:24,180 --> 00:55:27,600
So Mr. O'Keefe didn't freak out like that?

1057
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:29,370
Why this urgency?

1058
00:55:30,330 --> 00:55:33,330
Why was he so eager to seal the deal?

1059
00:55:33,990 --> 00:55:34,990
What's the reason?

1060
00:55:35,540 --> 00:55:39,620
Because everything in his life depends on his deal.

1061
00:55:40,240 --> 00:55:41,370
Everything.

1062
00:55:41,620 --> 00:55:43,160
Unlike the "Lewin" group.

1063
00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:45,660
They had one goal in mind.

1064
00:55:47,370 --> 00:55:48,620
His procrastination.

1065
00:55:49,950 --> 00:55:50,990
His procrastination.

1066
00:55:52,700 --> 00:55:55,120
It wasn't personal. But his patience ran out.

1067
00:56:07,410 --> 00:56:10,690
In fact, there is something called...

1068
00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:14,440
Anticipatory breach of contract.

1069
00:56:14,630 --> 00:56:19,950
Although the actual breach has not occurred, it does happen

1070
00:56:20,660 --> 00:56:22,350
Through a party concerned,

1071
00:56:22,550 --> 00:56:27,200
which is referred to here
He's the super party soon,

1072
00:56:27,540 --> 00:56:29,450
Where he fails to fulfill his obligations

1073
00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:32,950
stipulated in the terms of the agreement.

1074
00:56:33,950 --> 00:56:36,830
When such a situation arises,

1075
00:56:38,700 --> 00:56:40,790
I see

1076
00:56:41,330 --> 00:56:46,120
This is one of the requirements of the dispute over this contract.

1077
00:56:46,910 --> 00:56:48,890
- - Get up!
- Oh my God.

1078
00:56:49,090 --> 00:56:50,190
Get up!

1079
00:56:50,380 --> 00:56:52,020
What do we do? We are drowning in these books

1080
00:56:52,220 --> 00:56:54,950
Talking about contracts every day.

1081
00:56:55,450 --> 00:56:56,910
We make them bored.

1082
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:00,310
We have lost connection and what defines us.

1083
00:57:00,510 --> 00:57:02,370
What do I gain from you? Nothing.

1084
00:57:05,450 --> 00:57:06,660
I have to make a decision.

1085
00:57:07,540 --> 00:57:08,600
I'll ask Jerry to testify.

1086
00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:09,940
- - No.
- Yes, I will.

1087
00:57:10,130 --> 00:57:11,790
- - I will present him for testimony.
- Don't do that.

1088
00:57:11,990 --> 00:57:14,020
- - I will submit it for testimony next week.
- No.

1089
00:57:14,220 --> 00:57:15,690
Are you deaf? I will present him for testimony.

1090
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:17,770
We have to make a radical change. He is an excellent witness.

1091
00:57:17,970 --> 00:57:19,600
You said yourself he's a good witness.

1092
00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:22,560
He is honest and a family man.

1093
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:24,100
He's a war hero.

1094
00:57:24,300 --> 00:57:26,850
Civil rights? Everything he did for black people?

1095
00:57:27,050 --> 00:57:28,440
He will testify before the jury.

1096
00:57:28,630 --> 00:57:30,480
It's too early for Jerry to testify.

1097
00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:32,830
This is too early, we don't have all the information.

1098
00:57:33,030 --> 00:57:35,730
It is never too early
For me, Mike.

1099
00:57:35,930 --> 00:57:37,390
We don't know anything about Meem yet.

1100
00:57:37,590 --> 00:57:39,690
We just saw her asking technical witnesses.

1101
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,190
We don't know anything
About her real style of interrogation,

1102
00:57:42,380 --> 00:57:44,190
Or how dangerous it really is.

1103
00:57:44,380 --> 00:57:46,310
You are completely ignorant.

1104
00:57:46,510 --> 00:57:47,870
I've made a decision.

1105
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,490
You can support me or withdraw.

1106
00:57:54,740 --> 00:57:56,560
Let's talk about some of your own values.

1107
00:57:56,760 --> 00:57:59,980
Because if I'm not mistaken, Jerry,
You are a champion who received two medals 8 times.

1108
00:58:00,180 --> 00:58:04,540
I received the Air Medal and the Navy Medal.
And the flying cross.

1109
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:06,890
And I did it all

1110
00:58:07,090 --> 00:58:08,730
Redemption for your country.

1111
00:58:08,930 --> 00:58:11,810
I don't think war deserves to be celebrated,

1112
00:58:12,010 --> 00:58:14,730
But I served my country very proudly.

1113
00:58:14,930 --> 00:58:16,540
Thank you for your service.

1114
00:58:17,660 --> 00:58:18,770
But you didn't stop.

1115
00:58:18,970 --> 00:58:21,440
I returned to your district
I took over the family business.

1116
00:58:21,630 --> 00:58:25,440
Then I do what I call it
Getting out of a pitfall to get into trouble.

1117
00:58:25,630 --> 00:58:27,020
I wanted to work in politics.

1118
00:58:27,220 --> 00:58:29,440
I ran for mayor
In your hometown of Biloxi.

1119
00:58:29,630 --> 00:58:31,850
She ran twice and served two terms as mayor

1120
00:58:32,050 --> 00:58:35,600
From 1974 to 1982.

1121
00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:37,890
I understand that it is in one of these two periods

1122
00:58:38,090 --> 00:58:40,910
A very friendly group of people came to visit you.

1123
00:58:42,330 --> 00:58:43,310
The Ku Klux Klan.

1124
00:58:43,510 --> 00:58:44,890
I object, Your Honor.

1125
00:58:45,090 --> 00:58:47,390
What does this type of question have to do with...

1126
00:58:47,590 --> 00:58:50,350
- Denied, Miss Downs.
- ...in a contract case, Your Honor?

1127
00:58:50,550 --> 00:58:52,490
You can answer that question.

1128
00:58:54,580 --> 00:58:57,330
I refused to let them demonstrate in Biloxi.

1129
00:58:58,370 --> 00:59:04,370
Rejected the Ku Klux Klan's request.
In Biloxi, Mississippi.

1130
00:59:04,620 --> 00:59:07,140
Flying military aircraft is something special.

1131
00:59:07,340 --> 00:59:10,410
But a request from the Ku Klux Klan was rejected.
Then, a completely different courage.

1132
00:59:12,740 --> 00:59:15,240
I had a chance, Jerry.

1133
00:59:15,790 --> 00:59:17,230
To get to know you and your family,

1134
00:59:17,430 --> 00:59:19,940
But these are good people
They didn't get the chance.

1135
00:59:20,130 --> 00:59:23,040
I want to ask you, what are your values?

1136
00:59:23,490 --> 00:59:26,330
What is important to you?

1137
00:59:27,370 --> 00:59:28,580
Mr. O'Keefe.

1138
00:59:29,290 --> 00:59:31,740
Have a nice day. How are you?

1139
00:59:32,790 --> 00:59:34,290
I'm fine, thanks.

1140
00:59:34,700 --> 00:59:36,040
Yes, good.

1141
00:59:51,700 --> 00:59:54,830
After hearing the testimony
which I just made,

1142
00:59:55,620 --> 01:00:00,140
I think it's safe to say
The crux of the matter is based on personality.

1143
01:00:00,340 --> 01:00:01,140
Do you agree with me on this?

1144
01:00:01,340 --> 01:00:03,830
Yes, I agree.

1145
01:00:04,830 --> 01:00:06,790
I couldn't hear it. Can you raise your voice?

1146
01:00:07,330 --> 01:00:08,850
I said, yes ma'am, I agree.

1147
01:00:09,050 --> 01:00:10,540
Well, personality.

1148
01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:12,980
Let's talk about personality.

1149
01:00:13,180 --> 01:00:14,940
Hints generally indicate

1150
01:00:15,130 --> 01:00:17,810
Even though you are an honorable man

1151
01:00:18,010 --> 01:00:20,560
He has strong moral principles,

1152
01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:23,490
According to your position, my client is the opposite.

1153
01:00:25,370 --> 01:00:28,350
I think Mr. Lewin and I...
We have very different styles

1154
01:00:28,550 --> 01:00:31,290
In dealing with people in business.

1155
01:00:31,660 --> 01:00:34,330
In business. Yes, that's right.

1156
01:00:35,370 --> 01:00:37,060
It's something that intrigues me.

1157
01:00:37,260 --> 01:00:39,350
How you ended up needing

1158
01:00:39,550 --> 01:00:42,410
To sell these funeral agencies
To Mr. Lewin?

1159
01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:45,940
I've had a few financial problems.

1160
01:00:46,130 --> 01:00:47,490
What kind of financial problems?

1161
01:00:52,370 --> 01:00:56,560
Because I'm pretty sure that's the real reason

1162
01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:59,600
Because you urgently want to sell at that time

1163
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:02,730
is that the Mississippi State Insurance Authority

1164
01:01:02,930 --> 01:01:04,770
She was about to revoke your license.

1165
01:01:04,970 --> 01:01:05,910
Is this true?

1166
01:01:06,620 --> 01:01:10,890
In fact,
Your license to sell insurance in Mississippi.

1167
01:01:11,090 --> 01:01:13,560
Currently suspended.

1168
01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:16,230
Can we agree that that is a true statement?

1169
01:01:16,430 --> 01:01:19,770
No, we can't agree
Because it is much more complicated than that.

1170
01:01:19,970 --> 01:01:22,060
Explain to me. Why is it more complicated?

1171
01:01:22,260 --> 01:01:25,270
- Has your license been suspended or not?
- I object, Your Honor.

1172
01:01:25,470 --> 01:01:27,350
Based on the simple fact that she is angry.

1173
01:01:27,550 --> 01:01:29,020
- - The answer is either yes or no.
- Rejected.

1174
01:01:29,220 --> 01:01:31,440
- - We knew he was in trouble.
- He said that this is unacceptable.

1175
01:01:31,630 --> 01:01:32,730
The objection is rejected.

1176
01:01:32,930 --> 01:01:37,690
The truth here is that you lost your license

1177
01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:42,640
Because you got involved in a savings and loan business

1178
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:45,640
With a man now imprisoned,

1179
01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,440
If I'm not mistaken.

1180
01:01:48,630 --> 01:01:50,480
- - Objection.
-Can I ask you a question?

1181
01:01:50,680 --> 01:01:52,350
- - Was the money you used...
- Rejected.

1182
01:01:52,550 --> 01:01:54,730
...to finance this deal, what's your money?

1183
01:01:54,930 --> 01:01:56,600
I was responsible for the money.

1184
01:01:56,800 --> 01:01:58,490
You used other people's money.

1185
01:01:59,490 --> 01:02:02,100
In fact, you used your clients' money

1186
01:02:02,300 --> 01:02:07,560
To fund your participation
In said deal with a now convicted felon.

1187
01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,100
- Objection, Your Honor.
-Am I right, Mr. O'Keefe?

1188
01:02:10,300 --> 01:02:12,270
- This has nothing to do with the case.
- Objection rejected.

1189
01:02:12,470 --> 01:02:14,480
- - Am I right?
-I don't describe it that way.

1190
01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:18,060
Could this be the whole issue?
Stemming from jealousy?

1191
01:02:18,260 --> 01:02:20,230
Objection. Shall we talk about emotions?

1192
01:02:20,430 --> 01:02:22,140
- - Jealousy?
- The objection is rejected.

1193
01:02:22,340 --> 01:02:25,940
I said, Mr. O'Keefe, that you and Mr. Lewin...
They differ in the way business is carried out

1194
01:02:26,130 --> 01:02:28,810
This may be the truest statement I've said all day

1195
01:02:29,010 --> 01:02:33,140
Because Mr. Lewin
He inherited a business from his father, like you.

1196
01:02:33,340 --> 01:02:36,140
But unlike you, he was able to develop

1197
01:02:36,340 --> 01:02:38,770
That's business
To become a multi-million dollar empire.

1198
01:02:38,970 --> 01:02:41,740
Meanwhile, what happened to your father's legacy?

1199
01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:58,200
"Jerry!" Wait.

1200
01:02:58,450 --> 01:03:00,190
Can you wait, Jerry?

1201
01:03:00,380 --> 01:03:01,850
What does that mean?

1202
01:03:02,050 --> 01:03:03,100
What do you mean?

1203
01:03:03,300 --> 01:03:05,560
I don't understand. Are you angry with me?

1204
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:08,640
Am I angry with you?
You were supposed to protect me there.

1205
01:03:08,840 --> 01:03:11,890
You were supposed to protect me
From interrogation, etc.

1206
01:03:12,090 --> 01:03:13,690
I didn't know she would ask you all this.

1207
01:03:13,880 --> 01:03:15,060
It is your duty to know.

1208
01:03:15,260 --> 01:03:16,230
You didn't tell me.

1209
01:03:16,430 --> 01:03:18,850
She told me about savings, credit and money,

1210
01:03:19,050 --> 01:03:21,020
But you didn't tell me he went to prison.

1211
01:03:21,220 --> 01:03:23,440
When I made the deal with him, he was not a criminal.

1212
01:03:23,630 --> 01:03:26,100
I had every reason
I'm convinced it's a bargain.

1213
01:03:26,300 --> 01:03:27,980
I can't read your mind. That's not my fault.

1214
01:03:28,180 --> 01:03:31,140
Of course it is. Since I appointed you

1215
01:03:31,340 --> 01:03:35,230
And you're trying to turn the issue around
To a review centered around you.

1216
01:03:35,430 --> 01:03:37,020
I did everything to save you.

1217
01:03:37,220 --> 01:03:39,690
I paid every penny I had on this case.
While you're messing around.

1218
01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:41,520
I'm not messing around. This is not fair.

1219
01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:43,480
You have nothing to risk here.

1220
01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:45,350
When the case ends in a win, loss, or draw,

1221
01:03:45,550 --> 01:03:47,440
You will board your plane and leave.

1222
01:03:47,630 --> 01:03:49,440
While I will stay here. I have a lot at stake.

1223
01:03:49,630 --> 01:03:52,060
My life is at stake. I don't know how much of it is left.

1224
01:03:52,260 --> 01:03:53,620
I know that, Jerry.

1225
01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:57,290
I will make a decision.

1226
01:03:58,290 --> 01:03:59,600
About what, Jerry?

1227
01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:02,240
I will replace you as lead advisor.

1228
01:04:06,990 --> 01:04:09,330
To bring Mike instead of me? Is that what you're going to do?

1229
01:04:09,990 --> 01:04:12,790
I assure you now, Jerry, that this is a huge mistake.

1230
01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:36,370
Fuck!

1231
01:04:38,410 --> 01:04:40,120
Hello my dear.

1232
01:04:42,370 --> 01:04:43,580
What are you doing?

1233
01:04:43,950 --> 01:04:45,870
I'm reading a little.

1234
01:04:46,490 --> 01:04:49,370
You look a little disappointed, my dear.
Are things okay?

1235
01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:51,850
No, I'm fine.

1236
01:04:52,050 --> 01:04:53,020
I'm fine.

1237
01:04:53,220 --> 01:04:54,560
- - Okay...
- No.

1238
01:04:54,760 --> 01:04:55,830
No. I...

1239
01:04:59,410 --> 01:05:00,810
- - It has been replaced.
- What?

1240
01:05:01,010 --> 01:05:02,200
I said I was replaced.

1241
01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:04,450
They replaced me.

1242
01:05:04,870 --> 01:05:05,870
What?

1243
01:05:06,290 --> 01:05:08,240
- Yes, Jerry...
- They replaced you?

1244
01:05:08,990 --> 01:05:10,450
What does this mean, my dear?

1245
01:05:11,740 --> 01:05:14,240
I mean, they want...

1246
01:05:14,790 --> 01:05:17,910
They want it for someone else
To be the main advisor and so...

1247
01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:20,620
They replaced me.

1248
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:25,040
Really, my dear?

1249
01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:30,540
But, wait, I don't understand. Why would they do that?

1250
01:05:31,830 --> 01:05:34,330
You failed.

1251
01:05:34,870 --> 01:05:35,810
I failed.

1252
01:05:36,010 --> 01:05:37,160
I failed.

1253
01:05:38,830 --> 01:05:40,200
I failed. I...

1254
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:45,440
I brought Jerry to testify and I didn't prepare him well enough.

1255
01:05:45,630 --> 01:05:50,440
When they interrogated him, they completely destroyed him.

1256
01:05:50,630 --> 01:05:53,370
They were...it was bad.

1257
01:05:55,240 --> 01:05:57,690
It bothered me. I'm upset.

1258
01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:00,290
I think the reason I'm upset is because...

1259
01:06:01,540 --> 01:06:05,190
Seeing Jerry so upset made me upset.

1260
01:06:05,380 --> 01:06:06,790
So I just...

1261
01:06:07,370 --> 01:06:09,200
- - I understand.
-I'm upset about it.

1262
01:06:10,490 --> 01:06:13,120
You seem to really care about this man.

1263
01:06:15,580 --> 01:06:16,660
"Jerry"?

1264
01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:18,390
- - Yes.
- Yes.

1265
01:06:18,590 --> 01:06:20,490
Yes. Jerry is important. And I...

1266
01:06:57,290 --> 01:06:59,060
Hello. Excuse me.

1267
01:06:59,260 --> 01:07:03,240
Are you Mrs. Lauren McGrath?

1268
01:07:04,490 --> 01:07:06,410
Yes, but I...

1269
01:07:07,450 --> 01:07:09,190
Sorry, I don't mean to be rude.

1270
01:07:09,380 --> 01:07:11,660
I was expecting a lawyer to come.

1271
01:07:13,830 --> 01:07:15,120
Yes, I'm a lawyer.

1272
01:07:15,620 --> 01:07:18,290
I'm Hal Dawkins,
Who did you talk to on the phone?

1273
01:07:20,040 --> 01:07:21,330
I'm so sorry.

1274
01:07:21,660 --> 01:07:23,940
I hope I didn't insult you. I just...

1275
01:07:24,130 --> 01:07:26,290
Honestly, you look so young.

1276
01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:31,040
- Please.
- Thank you.

1277
01:07:35,160 --> 01:07:38,700
I worked at a funeral agency
Owned by Lewin for 13 years.

1278
01:07:42,370 --> 01:07:46,730
During that time, I saw a lot,

1279
01:07:46,930 --> 01:07:51,290
In terms of how that company operates.

1280
01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:55,120
Before we continue talking, I have to ask you,

1281
01:07:55,790 --> 01:07:57,660
Are you ready to testify?

1282
01:08:06,910 --> 01:08:10,200
Hello, Mrs. McGrath.
How are you this afternoon?

1283
01:08:11,830 --> 01:08:14,490
- - I'm fine, thanks.
-Very good.

1284
01:08:15,700 --> 01:08:18,390
Mrs. McGrath, will you tell us how much you've worked?

1285
01:08:18,590 --> 01:08:22,410
As an employee of Durbin & Sons funeral agency.
In Southaven, Mississippi?

1286
01:08:23,490 --> 01:08:26,790
I worked at that funeral agency
About 13 years before I resigned.

1287
01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:32,490
Did you witness any transfer of ownership during that period?

1288
01:08:36,410 --> 01:08:41,950
Bought the "Lewin" group
Durbin & Sons Agency around 1990,

1289
01:08:42,450 --> 01:08:44,330
I was there during that period.

1290
01:08:45,620 --> 01:08:49,540
Have you noticed any changes?
On the way the company is managed

1291
01:08:49,950 --> 01:08:51,740
After the Lewin Group took over?

1292
01:08:52,740 --> 01:08:57,640
The biggest change was the implementation of the policy

1293
01:08:57,840 --> 01:09:00,640
Raising the prices of certain goods

1294
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:04,490
In areas where they have no competitors.

1295
01:09:06,540 --> 01:09:09,190
Mostly, it turns out that

1296
01:09:09,380 --> 01:09:13,540
Poor areas where poverty is extreme.

1297
01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:17,950
Can you give us an example?
On this selective pricing?

1298
01:09:19,240 --> 01:09:22,330
There was a coffin in particular

1299
01:09:22,740 --> 01:09:26,580
As I remember, "Wilbert Cooper Tribune."

1300
01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:31,330
It was supposed to sell for $750.

1301
01:09:31,870 --> 01:09:36,950
This is what happened in some areas, such as Madison.

1302
01:09:37,490 --> 01:09:40,600
But in other areas like Corinth,

1303
01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:43,730
It is a very poor area, as you know...

1304
01:09:43,930 --> 01:09:44,740
Yes, of course.

1305
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:48,600
They raised the price there like crazy,

1306
01:09:48,800 --> 01:09:51,540
To be 3 times the cost price.

1307
01:09:52,620 --> 01:09:54,080
Because they just can.

1308
01:09:55,120 --> 01:09:57,810
They knew the customers had no other choice.

1309
01:09:58,010 --> 01:10:00,660
So, basically, if I understand what you're saying,

1310
01:10:02,950 --> 01:10:07,040
Lewin's group was involved
In a kind of manipulative selective pricing.

1311
01:10:07,740 --> 01:10:09,230
- - What?
- Objection.

1312
01:10:09,430 --> 01:10:12,020
Your Honor, how could the witness know the intentions?

1313
01:10:12,220 --> 01:10:13,740
People you've never even met?

1314
01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:15,160
Accepted objection.

1315
01:10:15,700 --> 01:10:18,200
Well then, let me ask you this.

1316
01:10:18,790 --> 01:10:22,490
During your time at Durbin & Sons,
Did you have an impression?

1317
01:10:22,740 --> 01:10:25,100
That Lewin's group may have been...

1318
01:10:25,300 --> 01:10:28,020
Specifically targeting minority communities...

1319
01:10:28,220 --> 01:10:29,640
- - Objection.
- Oh, really?

1320
01:10:29,840 --> 01:10:32,740
- - Oh God!
- That's speculation, Mr. Allred.

1321
01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:35,410
What is the basis for these questions?

1322
01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:37,040
Mr. Allred?

1323
01:10:38,450 --> 01:10:40,450
Do you know something? I apologize.

1324
01:10:41,620 --> 01:10:42,580
There is no basis for it.

1325
01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:44,990
That was just speculation.

1326
01:10:45,410 --> 01:10:47,410
Please consider it cancelled.

1327
01:10:48,740 --> 01:10:51,740
But I, Your Honor
I strongly object to Miss Downs' tone.

1328
01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:54,230
- - Unreasonable.
-My tone?

1329
01:10:54,430 --> 01:10:55,770
- - It was noticed.
-Her tone?

1330
01:10:55,970 --> 01:10:57,480
Thank you, Miss McGrath.
- Yes.

1331
01:10:57,680 --> 01:10:58,790
No more questions.

1332
01:10:59,910 --> 01:11:01,200
It has already been noticed.

1333
01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:18,450
Good morning, Jerry.

1334
01:11:19,120 --> 01:11:20,410
How are you, Willie?

1335
01:11:23,450 --> 01:11:25,290
I think you're still mad at me?

1336
01:11:25,830 --> 01:11:28,700
It was a very bad day. Why don't we just do that?

1337
01:11:31,330 --> 01:11:32,490
Well, here we go.

1338
01:11:32,990 --> 01:11:35,190
I screwed up there, okay?

1339
01:11:35,380 --> 01:11:37,560
Make a mistake and you mess it up.

1340
01:11:37,760 --> 01:11:42,040
And I just want to say I'm sorry and I apologize.

1341
01:11:42,540 --> 01:11:43,660
Very good.

1342
01:11:44,910 --> 01:11:46,410
I accept your apology.

1343
01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:51,870
Okay, we're done with that then.

1344
01:11:53,660 --> 01:11:56,870
Is this your first time?
Do you apologize to someone in this way?

1345
01:11:58,910 --> 01:12:02,580
Honestly, my wife helped me draft the apology.

1346
01:12:05,580 --> 01:12:08,390
You did a good job.
I want you to thank her on my behalf.

1347
01:12:08,590 --> 01:12:09,410
Okay.

1348
01:12:19,830 --> 01:12:22,440
You know what I can't stand?
About that guy?

1349
01:12:22,630 --> 01:12:23,490
What?

1350
01:12:27,660 --> 01:12:28,950
His face.

1351
01:12:33,330 --> 01:12:35,230
I know what you mean. He...

1352
01:12:35,430 --> 01:12:37,950
-You know what I mean.
- It's his facial expressions.

1353
01:12:38,870 --> 01:12:43,350
No, it's generations after generations
Of white entitlements and privileges

1354
01:12:43,550 --> 01:12:47,040
All combined in one simple smile.

1355
01:12:49,330 --> 01:12:51,230
But his dealings with that witness today,

1356
01:12:51,430 --> 01:12:55,330
He takes a position, pretending to be the savior of our people.

1357
01:12:57,410 --> 01:13:00,240
Unfortunately, the jury seems to have been convinced.

1358
01:13:03,620 --> 01:13:05,410
Yes. That's a problem, right?

1359
01:13:12,870 --> 01:13:17,890
Didn't I see his name on the witness list at some point?

1360
01:13:18,090 --> 01:13:21,990
Gary was supposed to summon him as...

1361
01:13:25,490 --> 01:13:27,480
An essential witness

1362
01:13:27,680 --> 01:13:29,980
In the agreement between O'Keefe and Lewin.

1363
01:13:30,180 --> 01:13:34,520
Which means I'll question him.

1364
01:13:34,720 --> 01:13:37,790
Which means you will interrogate him.

1365
01:13:56,790 --> 01:13:59,190
Has anyone read about the deal?

1366
01:13:59,380 --> 01:14:03,740
concluded by the "Lewin" group
With an entity called the “National Baptist Convention”?

1367
01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:06,060
"National Baptist Convention"?

1368
01:14:06,260 --> 01:14:07,580
What is this?

1369
01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:11,740
It's like an arm of the black church.

1370
01:14:12,580 --> 01:14:15,540
But it's a very big arm,
It's probably the biggest, actually.

1371
01:14:15,910 --> 01:14:18,440
Sorry. Did you just say that the "Lewin" group...

1372
01:14:18,630 --> 01:14:21,060
She has a deal with the black church?

1373
01:14:21,260 --> 01:14:24,020
National Baptist Convention, but, yeah.

1374
01:14:24,220 --> 01:14:27,080
How? How does this make sense?

1375
01:14:28,080 --> 01:14:30,490
I don't know. All the details here.

1376
01:14:32,290 --> 01:14:36,040
They seem to have struck up some sort of partnership
About a year ago.

1377
01:14:37,080 --> 01:14:38,370
But it's hard to know why.

1378
01:14:42,830 --> 01:14:45,490
Well, can you bring more?
Any information about this?

1379
01:14:45,830 --> 01:14:46,990
Yes sir.

1380
01:14:47,450 --> 01:14:50,020
Are the plaintiffs ready?
To call their next witness?

1381
01:14:50,220 --> 01:14:51,640
Yes, indeed, Your Honor.

1382
01:14:51,840 --> 01:14:56,980
We want to call as a witness, Michael Allred,
Mr. O'Keefe's longtime lawyer.

1383
01:14:57,180 --> 01:14:59,790
Really, Your Honor?

1384
01:15:00,450 --> 01:15:02,520
What is your purpose, Mr. Douglas?

1385
01:15:02,720 --> 01:15:05,520
We understand, Your Honor
How this seems a little strange.

1386
01:15:05,720 --> 01:15:09,810
But Mr. Allred was Mr. O'Keefe's lawyer.

1387
01:15:10,010 --> 01:15:11,390
When he was dealing with Lewin,

1388
01:15:11,590 --> 01:15:14,200
We believe that his testimony will be necessary.

1389
01:15:19,950 --> 01:15:21,660
Michael Allred.

1390
01:15:22,700 --> 01:15:24,560
We are friends. I'll call you "Mike."

1391
01:15:24,760 --> 01:15:26,020
Sure, Reggie.

1392
01:15:26,220 --> 01:15:30,950
During your law practice
For 30 years, Mike,

1393
01:15:32,330 --> 01:15:33,890
Specializing in contract law,

1394
01:15:34,090 --> 01:15:36,600
Did it occur to you while you were preparing the contract?

1395
01:15:36,800 --> 01:15:38,310
Between Mr. O'Keefe and Mr. Lewin...

1396
01:15:38,510 --> 01:15:39,480
"Screw him"

1397
01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:42,100
...that there may be any misunderstanding

1398
01:15:42,300 --> 01:15:44,440
The nature of that document?

1399
01:15:44,630 --> 01:15:48,270
No sir.
Its nature was very clear to everyone.

1400
01:15:48,470 --> 01:15:49,770
It was a necklace.

1401
01:15:49,970 --> 01:15:51,980
It was a necklace.

1402
01:15:52,180 --> 01:15:54,770
Was there anything suggestive in her language?

1403
01:15:54,970 --> 01:15:59,870
That the agreed upon time
To conclude the deal will be open?

1404
01:16:00,540 --> 01:16:02,700
How do you feel sitting in the witness seat?

1405
01:16:04,790 --> 01:16:06,490
It's a little annoying, yeah.

1406
01:16:08,410 --> 01:16:09,580
And imagine

1407
01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:11,910
We haven't started yet.

1408
01:16:14,950 --> 01:16:18,890
It's been a long time
And you're Mr. O'Keefe's lawyer, right?

1409
01:16:19,090 --> 01:16:21,910
Yes, about 30 years ago.

1410
01:16:22,990 --> 01:16:25,700
Are you saying that you and Mr. O'Keefe?
Two close friends?

1411
01:16:26,410 --> 01:16:28,140
Jerry is one of my closest friends.

1412
01:16:28,340 --> 01:16:31,990
Yes, we have a lot in common. I respect him.

1413
01:16:37,790 --> 01:16:40,310
Do you think this is an issue?
Related to race, Mr. Allred?

1414
01:16:40,510 --> 01:16:41,980
- - Objection.
- Objection.

1415
01:16:42,180 --> 01:16:43,790
- - The objection is rejected.
- What is the connection?

1416
01:16:44,450 --> 01:16:46,600
Am I saying this is a race issue?

1417
01:16:46,800 --> 01:16:49,660
No, I don't see it that way.

1418
01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:53,240
Really?

1419
01:16:53,990 --> 01:16:58,640
The issue of race seems to come up constantly, right?

1420
01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:00,740
Almost exclusively on your part.

1421
01:17:01,290 --> 01:17:04,560
For example, the heroic novel

1422
01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:08,560
which claims that Mr. O'Keefe
A record of civil rights

1423
01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:11,480
By refusing to grant permission to KKK.

1424
01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:15,410
Explain to me how this relates to an issue about contracts.

1425
01:17:16,120 --> 01:17:19,980
It's more about Jerry's character.
His integrity and honesty.

1426
01:17:20,180 --> 01:17:22,140
He's doing great things for black people, right?

1427
01:17:22,340 --> 01:17:24,850
- - Objection. Stop.
Objection, Your Honor.

1428
01:17:25,050 --> 01:17:27,940
I will not allow this type of questioning
Miss Downs. The objection is accepted.

1429
01:17:28,130 --> 01:17:30,100
- - I object.
- The other thing

1430
01:17:30,300 --> 01:17:33,370
Which was made clear in this case
It's how important family is

1431
01:17:33,580 --> 01:17:36,140
And the family legacy of Mr. O'Keefe.

1432
01:17:36,340 --> 01:17:37,940
Is this something you share?

1433
01:17:38,130 --> 01:17:39,730
Is family important to you too?

1434
01:17:39,930 --> 01:17:42,480
It's not something important to me.
Rather, she is everything to me.

1435
01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:45,190
Everything. This is a common thing
Between you and Mr. O'Keefe.

1436
01:17:45,380 --> 01:17:47,940
- Objection, Your Honor.
- Because you are two best friends?

1437
01:17:48,130 --> 01:17:51,270
Objection rejected. The witness can
Answering the question, but let's get to the point.

1438
01:17:51,470 --> 01:17:53,980
It's something we definitely have in common.

1439
01:17:54,180 --> 01:17:56,660
Is that what you really want to ask me?
Miss Downs?

1440
01:17:57,120 --> 01:17:58,700
It is, actually.

1441
01:17:59,330 --> 01:18:00,660
But thanks.

1442
01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:03,330
You love your family, right?

1443
01:18:04,580 --> 01:18:08,310
Your extended and immediate family.
Love all your family members.

1444
01:18:08,510 --> 01:18:10,490
- - I love every single person in it.
- Really?

1445
01:18:11,660 --> 01:18:15,980
So aren't they someone you secretly wish to disavow?

1446
01:18:16,180 --> 01:18:18,140
- - Someone who brings some shame.
- Objection.

1447
01:18:18,340 --> 01:18:19,890
-It doesn't matter how he feels...
- Disavowal?

1448
01:18:20,090 --> 01:18:22,600
I know I have family members
I like to disown them, unlike you.

1449
01:18:22,800 --> 01:18:24,480
- - I'll take care of it.
no? Don't you have it?

1450
01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:25,690
No.

1451
01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:27,740
For example, your grandfather.

1452
01:18:28,370 --> 01:18:29,730
Seriously?

1453
01:18:29,930 --> 01:18:31,240
Yes, your grandfather.

1454
01:18:37,660 --> 01:18:40,990
He was my grandfather. What does he have to do with this case?

1455
01:18:45,830 --> 01:18:50,120
Remind me, how much did your grandfather spend?
He's a member of the Ku Klux Klan?

1456
01:18:54,790 --> 01:18:57,560
- - Objection.
Objection, Your Honor.

1457
01:18:57,760 --> 01:19:00,520
- - I will continue to object.
-You have to stop this, she won't stop.

1458
01:19:00,720 --> 01:19:02,230
Objection...

1459
01:19:02,430 --> 01:19:06,270
Did your position agree with your grandfather regarding KKK?

1460
01:19:06,470 --> 01:19:08,190
- - Do you share the position?
- What's the question?

1461
01:19:08,380 --> 01:19:11,270
Do you share a love of the burning cross?

1462
01:19:11,470 --> 01:19:15,190
Did you accompany your grandfather to any gatherings?
Ku Klux Klan, Mr. Allred?

1463
01:19:15,380 --> 01:19:18,310
You know this is an overstep.
He has nothing to do with this case.

1464
01:19:18,510 --> 01:19:19,770
- - Objection.
- Rejected, Mr. Gary.

1465
01:19:19,970 --> 01:19:21,230
How do you reject the objection?

1466
01:19:21,430 --> 01:19:23,190
This has nothing to do with the case.

1467
01:19:23,380 --> 01:19:25,060
- - Answer the question.
- What's the question?

1468
01:19:25,260 --> 01:19:26,560
You ask me if I realize?

1469
01:19:26,760 --> 01:19:29,390
That my grandfather was once a member of the KKK?

1470
01:19:29,590 --> 01:19:32,040
You don't have to answer the question
Hey Mike. Objection.

1471
01:19:32,490 --> 01:19:34,810
I heard you for the first time, Mr. Gary.

1472
01:19:35,010 --> 01:19:37,850
Yes, I was asking that question. I don't bring it up anymore.

1473
01:19:38,050 --> 01:19:38,980
No more questions.

1474
01:19:39,180 --> 01:19:41,350
What his grandfather did has nothing to do with this case.

1475
01:19:41,550 --> 01:19:43,350
That was too much, Miss Downs.

1476
01:19:43,550 --> 01:19:48,700
Hypocrisy is a very dangerous thing, Your Honor.

1477
01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:51,830
The place is full of blacks now.

1478
01:19:52,290 --> 01:19:53,600
He denounced your grandfather's actions.

1479
01:19:53,800 --> 01:19:55,140
Yeah, say it, Mike.

1480
01:19:55,340 --> 01:19:56,190
Say it.

1481
01:19:56,380 --> 01:19:58,020
Come on, say it.

1482
01:19:58,220 --> 01:19:59,520
Come on, Mike. He denounced his actions.

1483
01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:02,080
Do you know something? I'm sorry.

1484
01:20:02,790 --> 01:20:06,440
Understood? I'm sorry. Her behavior was inexcusable.

1485
01:20:06,630 --> 01:20:10,810
No one can be held responsible for the mistakes of his predecessors.

1486
01:20:11,010 --> 01:20:16,850
Mike, your grandfather is a vile racist
A land thief and a slave rapist.

1487
01:20:17,050 --> 01:20:20,020
Come on, Reggie Douglas, that's not true.

1488
01:20:20,220 --> 01:20:21,730
It's still serious, I won't...

1489
01:20:21,930 --> 01:20:23,140
Don't talk to me like that.

1490
01:20:23,340 --> 01:20:26,580
Stop now!

1491
01:20:28,290 --> 01:20:30,490
Stop it, Reg. Oh people.

1492
01:20:31,240 --> 01:20:34,950
We're not going to punish you for what happened in the past, Mike.

1493
01:20:35,620 --> 01:20:37,810
He can't fix his grandfather's mistakes or anything else.

1494
01:20:38,010 --> 01:20:39,490
But you know what we can solve?

1495
01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:41,490
This issue.

1496
01:20:41,740 --> 01:20:43,440
Hey man.

1497
01:20:43,630 --> 01:20:45,890
Will you forgive him then?

1498
01:20:46,090 --> 01:20:47,310
- - Is that how it is?
- I will.

1499
01:20:47,510 --> 01:20:50,620
You didn't know enough about his past,
That's why I was able to get you.

1500
01:20:52,660 --> 01:20:54,480
- Screw the case.
-I think we can win.

1501
01:20:54,680 --> 01:20:56,140
I'm going back to Florida.

1502
01:20:56,340 --> 01:20:58,350
To do what I should have done in the beginning.

1503
01:20:58,550 --> 01:21:00,230
I have a question for you, Reggie.

1504
01:21:00,430 --> 01:21:02,660
What is delaying you from leaving?

1505
01:21:03,830 --> 01:21:05,690
- "Willy."
-You don't have to insist.

1506
01:21:05,880 --> 01:21:07,290
Have fun with these eggs.

1507
01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:10,080
- "Reg!"
- "Reggie."

1508
01:21:11,910 --> 01:21:13,160
Do you want to leave too?

1509
01:21:13,790 --> 01:21:15,040
Do you know something?

1510
01:21:15,700 --> 01:21:17,140
I'm withdrawn.

1511
01:21:17,340 --> 01:21:19,640
- - I'm tired of this.
- I'm withdrawing too.

1512
01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:21,390
I really miss home.

1513
01:21:21,590 --> 01:21:23,950
I'm too old for this stuff, Willie.

1514
01:21:26,120 --> 01:21:27,200
Sorry, Mike.

1515
01:21:28,040 --> 01:21:29,580
I'm really sorry.

1516
01:21:29,910 --> 01:21:30,910
Me too.

1517
01:21:34,160 --> 01:21:35,410
You can't handle this.

1518
01:21:36,330 --> 01:21:38,740
What do you mean? I have a case.

1519
01:21:39,830 --> 01:21:40,950
To earn it.

1520
01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:49,450
I probably should...

1521
01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:54,640
- - Most likely I should step down.
- No, Mike.

1522
01:21:54,840 --> 01:21:56,520
- - Most likely I should.
-You can't do that.

1523
01:21:56,720 --> 01:21:58,810
We have a lot to accomplish,
But we can win the case.

1524
01:21:59,010 --> 01:22:01,190
If you dare to enter that court again,

1525
01:22:01,380 --> 01:22:04,100
The jury won't see me
Except a man belonging to a group of killers.

1526
01:22:04,300 --> 01:22:05,730
Listen, we got ourselves into trouble.

1527
01:22:05,930 --> 01:22:07,390
But we can save ourselves.

1528
01:22:07,590 --> 01:22:09,060
Sorry, Willie, I can't.

1529
01:22:09,260 --> 01:22:10,640
We both know that if I stay,

1530
01:22:10,840 --> 01:22:12,690
My presence will harm the cause more.

1531
01:22:12,880 --> 01:22:15,910
I can't do that to you,
And I certainly can't do that to Jerry.

1532
01:22:22,740 --> 01:22:23,950
Okay.

1533
01:22:24,700 --> 01:22:27,620
- - I'll have to win it without you.
-You will win.

1534
01:22:29,240 --> 01:22:31,040
Good job, Halbert.

1535
01:22:51,490 --> 01:22:54,200
There you are, I was looking for you.

1536
01:23:01,160 --> 01:23:03,540
This trial is not going the way I wanted.

1537
01:23:05,410 --> 01:23:07,240
I feel like I made a big mistake.

1538
01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:12,120
I have to cut my losses.

1539
01:23:13,330 --> 01:23:15,990
I thought justice was impartial.

1540
01:23:16,950 --> 01:23:21,040
And that I can oblige Ray Lewin.
On his promise in court.

1541
01:23:22,740 --> 01:23:25,790
And make him pay the price. But it turns out I'm ignorant.

1542
01:23:26,620 --> 01:23:29,160
I'm sorry I put you through all of this.

1543
01:23:32,540 --> 01:23:34,870
You don't have to apologize, Jeremiah.

1544
01:23:36,410 --> 01:23:37,990
Not for me anyway.

1545
01:23:40,540 --> 01:23:41,990
I know who you are.

1546
01:23:46,450 --> 01:23:48,390
- Have you told Willy yet?
- No.

1547
01:23:48,590 --> 01:23:51,620
I think he's going home to Florida.
On weekends.

1548
01:23:53,740 --> 01:23:55,540
I feel like I have to tell him in person.

1549
01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:58,330
I think it's the right thing to do.

1550
01:24:10,790 --> 01:24:14,080
Sorry, wait, remind me what's in this?

1551
01:24:15,620 --> 01:24:19,620
{\an8}This is the information you requested about the "Lewin" deal.
With the National Baptist Convention.

1552
01:24:20,660 --> 01:24:23,040
Can you leave this with me please?

1553
01:24:25,870 --> 01:24:27,540
{\an8}Do you think the matter is really over, President?

1554
01:24:29,540 --> 01:24:31,690
I don't think there is a way for us to win this case.

1555
01:24:31,880 --> 01:24:35,450
And I think Jerry's starting to see that too, so...

1556
01:25:09,040 --> 01:25:12,140
-You must be Mrs. Gary.
- Yes.

1557
01:25:12,340 --> 01:25:14,690
I hope you'll forgive me for coming so suddenly,

1558
01:25:14,880 --> 01:25:16,540
But I'm Jeremiah O'Keefe.

1559
01:25:19,240 --> 01:25:21,230
- - means "Jerry".
- Yes, ma'am.

1560
01:25:21,430 --> 01:25:24,600
"Jerry!" Which my husband keeps talking about.

1561
01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:26,600
Is Willie home, by the way?

1562
01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:28,770
No, I'm afraid it's not there.

1563
01:25:28,970 --> 01:25:32,600
He's at his mother's house in Indiantown,
Where he usually goes on Saturdays.

1564
01:25:32,800 --> 01:25:34,390
- - Okay.
-I'll tell you something.

1565
01:25:34,590 --> 01:25:36,620
Give me a minute to get my car keys,

1566
01:25:37,370 --> 01:25:40,060
- - And I will take you there myself.
- No, please.

1567
01:25:40,260 --> 01:25:41,870
I don't want to intrude.

1568
01:25:43,790 --> 01:25:46,450
Of course not, Jerry.

1569
01:25:47,330 --> 01:25:49,620
You're family now. Come on!

1570
01:25:56,330 --> 01:25:58,600
We're entering Indiantown now.

1571
01:25:58,800 --> 01:26:00,330
Is Willie from this area?

1572
01:26:00,990 --> 01:26:02,410
We both come from it.

1573
01:26:11,870 --> 01:26:13,910
Willie and I had our disagreements.

1574
01:26:15,990 --> 01:26:18,870
But I want you to know that he is a special man.

1575
01:26:23,990 --> 01:26:26,350
- - Turned upside down.
- Yes, exactly.

1576
01:26:26,550 --> 01:26:27,270
Yes.

1577
01:26:27,470 --> 01:26:28,410
No.

1578
01:26:29,870 --> 01:26:30,870
I'm a disaster.

1579
01:26:31,830 --> 01:26:33,690
You said everyone will die.

1580
01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:34,870
That's right.

1581
01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:38,950
- - Oh my God.
-Oh my God.

1582
01:26:41,790 --> 01:26:45,330
Did Willie ever tell you?
He's one of 11 brothers?

1583
01:26:49,080 --> 01:26:50,390
- - Sure.
- It's 6 out of 11.

1584
01:26:50,590 --> 01:26:54,690
Believe it or not, I have 13 children.

1585
01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:56,690
- - Oh my God.
- Really?

1586
01:26:56,880 --> 01:26:57,870
Yes.

1587
01:26:58,540 --> 01:26:59,910
Wow.

1588
01:27:01,790 --> 01:27:03,740
You have 26 children together.

1589
01:27:04,240 --> 01:27:07,740
So you know there is always a certain child

1590
01:27:08,410 --> 01:27:12,940
He clings to you for life, no matter what you do.

1591
01:27:13,130 --> 01:27:17,240
Where he gets attached to your man and can't let go.

1592
01:27:17,950 --> 01:27:18,950
Oh God.

1593
01:27:20,990 --> 01:27:22,290
That's Willie.

1594
01:27:23,160 --> 01:27:27,950
And look where it got him

1595
01:27:28,740 --> 01:27:30,540
All that longing and yearning for love.

1596
01:27:41,040 --> 01:27:43,330
My grandfather was a farmer.

1597
01:27:44,540 --> 01:27:47,490
I mean my grandfather on my father's side, after whom I was named.

1598
01:27:50,870 --> 01:27:52,660
I was 8 years old

1599
01:27:53,290 --> 01:27:55,870
I am in the sugar cane fields.

1600
01:27:57,240 --> 01:27:59,330
Where I work.

1601
01:28:01,660 --> 01:28:04,060
She woke me up at 4:30 in the morning to bring me here,

1602
01:28:04,260 --> 01:28:05,600
I wasn't taller than this grass.

1603
01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:07,810
This is how it started. Here in the sugar cane fields.

1604
01:28:08,010 --> 01:28:10,270
The reason I came here is because...

1605
01:28:10,470 --> 01:28:11,990
Listen.

1606
01:28:12,450 --> 01:28:14,040
Before you even finished speaking.

1607
01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:17,450
You want to drop the case.

1608
01:28:18,620 --> 01:28:20,540
I know this will disappoint you.

1609
01:28:21,290 --> 01:28:24,290
- - But if there was a way I saw...
- Listen, Jerry.

1610
01:28:24,910 --> 01:28:26,350
You don't understand, sir.

1611
01:28:26,550 --> 01:28:30,160
I know you have to do what it takes.

1612
01:28:31,200 --> 01:28:34,810
But at the same time, you have to realize that I believe

1613
01:28:35,010 --> 01:28:38,350
deep down,
That you and I could have succeeded!

1614
01:28:38,550 --> 01:28:40,620
We could have taken down that company.

1615
01:28:42,040 --> 01:28:45,100
I hope you know how much I enjoyed getting to know you.

1616
01:28:45,300 --> 01:28:46,790
This didn't go as I wanted.

1617
01:28:48,910 --> 01:28:54,740
But getting to know you was one of the highlights.

1618
01:28:56,160 --> 01:28:57,450
What is that sound?

1619
01:28:59,450 --> 01:29:00,490
Listen...

1620
01:29:02,700 --> 01:29:04,240
Wait a minute.

1621
01:29:05,410 --> 01:29:06,560
Hello.

1622
01:29:06,760 --> 01:29:07,700
Hello?

1623
01:29:08,040 --> 01:29:09,940
- "Hal"?
Welcome? Can you hear me?

1624
01:29:10,130 --> 01:29:11,270
I can barely hear you, Hal.

1625
01:29:11,470 --> 01:29:13,310
Are you with Jerry now?

1626
01:29:13,510 --> 01:29:14,480
Yes.

1627
01:29:14,680 --> 01:29:16,640
Good. Good. Don't let him drop the case.

1628
01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:18,040
Hello?

1629
01:29:19,160 --> 01:29:20,940
Can you hear me, Hal? The connection is bad.

1630
01:29:21,130 --> 01:29:23,770
I said, don't let him drop the case!

1631
01:29:23,970 --> 01:29:27,600
Trust me. Maybe you found something useful.

1632
01:29:27,800 --> 01:29:28,690
(Robin Somes)

1633
01:29:28,880 --> 01:29:29,950
Okay. Good. I will call you.

1634
01:29:38,830 --> 01:29:42,810
{\an8}"South (Mississippi)"

1635
01:29:43,010 --> 01:29:46,690
Thank you for taking the time to talk to us.

1636
01:29:46,880 --> 01:29:48,990
Mr Soames and all.

1637
01:29:49,830 --> 01:29:51,520
What can you tell us about the deal?

1638
01:29:51,720 --> 01:29:55,060
concluded by the "Lewin" group
With the National Baptist Convention?

1639
01:29:55,260 --> 01:29:59,100
We never took advantage of it.
At least not for black people.

1640
01:29:59,300 --> 01:30:00,490
This is the truth.

1641
01:30:01,200 --> 01:30:04,850
About a year ago, the Lewin Group reached out

1642
01:30:05,050 --> 01:30:07,940
With some of the most important leaders of the "MAW".

1643
01:30:08,130 --> 01:30:09,770
You mean "National Baptist Convention."

1644
01:30:09,970 --> 01:30:15,100
Yes. It is one of the largest individual branches
For the black church.

1645
01:30:15,300 --> 01:30:20,700
They represent more than 33 thousand churches
And more than 8 million members.

1646
01:30:21,490 --> 01:30:24,980
Anyway, they made an offer to M.A.W.

1647
01:30:25,180 --> 01:30:28,390
Saying that if they could convince the black church

1648
01:30:28,590 --> 01:30:33,950
Endorsed by the "Lewin" Group
As chosen sponsor of death services,

1649
01:30:34,580 --> 01:30:37,020
They will make some church members sales representatives.

1650
01:30:37,220 --> 01:30:41,640
By teaching them how to sell everything
From graves to cemeteries

1651
01:30:41,840 --> 01:30:46,690
Tombstones and burial insurance policies,
Directly to their people.

1652
01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:50,450
And for every product they sell,
They can keep the commission.

1653
01:30:51,240 --> 01:30:53,640
Wait, so the Lewin Group...

1654
01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:57,140
She was taking poor blacks
And make them sell their funeral products

1655
01:30:57,340 --> 01:30:59,830
To other poor blacks for commission?

1656
01:31:00,450 --> 01:31:02,990
Of course, they said it was a win-win situation.

1657
01:31:03,700 --> 01:31:07,700
By lifting people out of poverty
And promoting economic empowerment.

1658
01:31:08,200 --> 01:31:12,060
But this did not benefit either party much.
Except for Lewin's group, of course.

1659
01:31:12,260 --> 01:31:13,190
Yes.

1660
01:31:13,380 --> 01:31:16,390
They were just trying
Finding another way to exploit black people

1661
01:31:16,590 --> 01:31:18,330
In their most vulnerable moments.

1662
01:31:42,040 --> 01:31:43,990
Do you know what this is?

1663
01:31:46,160 --> 01:31:47,200
I'm not sure.

1664
01:31:47,540 --> 01:31:49,830
It's a cemetery.

1665
01:31:50,790 --> 01:31:52,870
Although you can't tell by looking at it.

1666
01:31:53,330 --> 01:31:55,790
Due to the fact that it lacks tombstones.

1667
01:31:56,290 --> 01:31:57,370
What's the reason?

1668
01:31:58,080 --> 01:32:00,740
Because it is a different kind of cemetery.

1669
01:32:01,660 --> 01:32:03,990
It's an old slave cemetery.

1670
01:32:05,040 --> 01:32:07,980
Everyone knows that slaves did not have money

1671
01:32:08,180 --> 01:32:10,950
To bury loved ones with a tombstone.

1672
01:32:12,240 --> 01:32:14,870
Although you can't tell the difference
Looking at the cemetery,

1673
01:32:16,080 --> 01:32:17,950
But our entire history,

1674
01:32:19,240 --> 01:32:21,410
black history in the south,

1675
01:32:22,490 --> 01:32:24,620
And the history of blacks in America

1676
01:32:25,950 --> 01:32:30,450
It is the history of our slave ancestors,
Buried in all respects here.

1677
01:32:31,490 --> 01:32:37,040
History is spread almost everywhere
In the depths of the earth.

1678
01:32:37,910 --> 01:32:40,370
In these vast, desolate fields.

1679
01:32:41,490 --> 01:32:45,910
In some places, they installed many statues.

1680
01:32:46,620 --> 01:32:51,490
Such as Confederate monuments and statues
Which you see spread everywhere.

1681
01:32:53,450 --> 01:32:58,240
Many of them were placed over slave burial grounds.

1682
01:33:01,620 --> 01:33:06,240
It is as if one date is placed on top of another date.

1683
01:33:07,910 --> 01:33:12,830
This is like taking away a certain man's legacy
To put it above another legacy.

1684
01:33:13,450 --> 01:33:17,700
Until one day he sinks deep into the ground,

1685
01:33:19,120 --> 01:33:21,240
And buried away,

1686
01:33:23,290 --> 01:33:25,330
So that no one can find it after that.

1687
01:33:36,490 --> 01:33:39,440
Some of their members came up to me and told me

1688
01:33:39,630 --> 01:33:42,770
That's the actual cost of burying my father
It will be much more

1689
01:33:42,970 --> 01:33:45,310
From what they said when you bought the policy.

1690
01:33:45,510 --> 01:33:49,990
When I told them I didn't have the extra money,

1691
01:33:50,660 --> 01:33:53,700
I don't know how long it will take to get it,

1692
01:33:54,540 --> 01:33:58,540
They said happily
They can keep the body in the refrigerator.

1693
01:33:59,040 --> 01:34:02,980
Instead of reassuring me,
The deacon who was appointed as a counselor

1694
01:34:03,180 --> 01:34:06,830
He took the opportunity to surprise me with a pile of brochures

1695
01:34:07,160 --> 01:34:09,350
Trying to hire me as a sales representative for Lewin.

1696
01:34:09,550 --> 01:34:11,730
Suddenly, a man from GA came,

1697
01:34:11,930 --> 01:34:14,440
To ask me if I made funeral arrangements

1698
01:34:14,630 --> 01:34:17,410
And if you are interested in the burial package
Submitted by Lewin.

1699
01:34:18,910 --> 01:34:22,120
He said I would get a much better deal
If you pay in advance.

1700
01:34:22,990 --> 01:34:24,410
Before my son died.

1701
01:34:25,700 --> 01:34:27,520
Once my husband finally died,

1702
01:34:27,720 --> 01:34:31,640
They said the package I purchased did not cover it

1703
01:34:31,840 --> 01:34:34,560
The cost of preserving or transporting the body.

1704
01:34:34,760 --> 01:34:38,120
The coffin I bought for my mother was the cheapest.

1705
01:34:39,910 --> 01:34:45,040
I found out that the one they sold me was more expensive
3 times the average price.

1706
01:34:47,410 --> 01:34:50,950
When the preacher tells you that you need something,

1707
01:34:51,330 --> 01:34:53,200
And you are a religious person, you believe him.

1708
01:34:55,830 --> 01:34:59,600
I understand that you are an analyst with the Lewin Group.

1709
01:34:59,800 --> 01:35:01,990
Handles some high profile deals.

1710
01:35:02,830 --> 01:35:04,830
- - Is this true?
- Yes.

1711
01:35:05,620 --> 01:35:09,520
I was also one of those who coordinated the last deal

1712
01:35:09,720 --> 01:35:13,480
Among the "Lewin" group
And the National Baptist Convention.

1713
01:35:13,680 --> 01:35:15,140
- - Is that true?
- Yes, that's right.

1714
01:35:15,340 --> 01:35:17,020
Okay. Are you a Baptist?

1715
01:35:17,220 --> 01:35:18,810
- - No, I'm not.
- No.

1716
01:35:19,010 --> 01:35:20,140
- - But are you a Christian?
- Yes.

1717
01:35:20,340 --> 01:35:21,640
Yes, we're all Christians, right?

1718
01:35:21,840 --> 01:35:24,540
We all believe in the Lord. Amen.

1719
01:35:26,870 --> 01:35:28,440
But here's the question.

1720
01:35:28,630 --> 01:35:33,910
How much is the amount?
Which the Lewin Group expected to gain

1721
01:35:34,660 --> 01:35:38,890
From her deal with GAW?

1722
01:35:39,090 --> 01:35:39,990
And remember

1723
01:35:41,330 --> 01:35:42,990
You are under oath.

1724
01:35:45,830 --> 01:35:48,350
Our original expectations were for the long term

1725
01:35:48,550 --> 01:35:52,350
About a billion or 1.2 billion.

1726
01:35:52,550 --> 01:35:53,990
$1.2 million?

1727
01:35:54,660 --> 01:35:56,190
- - $1.2 billion.
- 1.2...

1728
01:35:56,380 --> 01:35:58,080
$1.2 billion?

1729
01:35:59,330 --> 01:36:00,600
$1.2 billion.

1730
01:36:00,800 --> 01:36:03,560
That's a lot of money for Lewin's group, right?

1731
01:36:03,760 --> 01:36:05,140
- - Yes.
- It's a big amount.

1732
01:36:05,340 --> 01:36:07,940
$1.2 billion, a lot of money.

1733
01:36:08,130 --> 01:36:11,080
I thought you said a million, but you said a billion dollars.

1734
01:36:13,660 --> 01:36:15,080
How much did you pay them?

1735
01:36:16,330 --> 01:36:17,410
Excuse me?

1736
01:36:18,950 --> 01:36:20,620
I said, how much did you pay them?

1737
01:36:21,290 --> 01:36:25,410
How much did Lewin Group pay?
For the National Baptist Convention

1738
01:36:25,870 --> 01:36:28,240
As compensation as a result of the deal?

1739
01:36:32,120 --> 01:36:36,120
I think we donated $200,000.

1740
01:36:40,660 --> 01:36:41,980
The jury heard it!

1741
01:36:42,180 --> 01:36:44,120
We had no defense for that.

1742
01:36:44,990 --> 01:36:46,620
What a disaster.

1743
01:36:49,200 --> 01:36:51,450
I'll have to call Lewin.

1744
01:37:20,660 --> 01:37:25,450
It has always been important to us
Deal with people honestly.

1745
01:37:26,040 --> 01:37:30,770
We strive to be strong competitors
In an increasingly volatile market?

1746
01:37:30,970 --> 01:37:33,450
Okay. But we don't deceive people.

1747
01:37:35,490 --> 01:37:36,940
This is not how we work.

1748
01:37:37,130 --> 01:37:38,950
No more questions, Your Honor.

1749
01:37:39,620 --> 01:37:41,620
- Your turn with the witness, Mr. Gary.
- Okay.

1750
01:37:44,240 --> 01:37:46,810
- How are you, Mr. Lewin?
- Totally fine. Thank you.

1751
01:37:47,010 --> 01:37:48,640
You look elegant in your Armani suit.

1752
01:37:48,840 --> 01:37:50,330
I can distinguish it from a distance.

1753
01:37:50,790 --> 01:37:53,100
I want to thank you for coming here.

1754
01:37:53,300 --> 01:37:54,940
I know you're very busy,

1755
01:37:55,130 --> 01:37:57,270
But it's good to have the important man here.

1756
01:37:57,470 --> 01:38:01,270
Because we want to clarify some ambiguous matters

1757
01:38:01,470 --> 01:38:04,330
I will start with that immediately. I want to know,

1758
01:38:04,950 --> 01:38:06,540
From your point of view,

1759
01:38:07,490 --> 01:38:10,410
What agreement did you make?
Between you and Mr. O'Keefe?

1760
01:38:11,240 --> 01:38:15,080
I think that was about a year ago

1761
01:38:16,120 --> 01:38:21,290
When we receive an inquiry
From a representative of Mr. O'Keefe.

1762
01:38:22,370 --> 01:38:26,440
In fact,
I'm sure his lawyer, Mr. Allred,

1763
01:38:26,630 --> 01:38:28,160
He's the one who called us.

1764
01:38:29,080 --> 01:38:33,080
I understand they were very eager to sell,

1765
01:38:33,660 --> 01:38:36,600
So we started looking into the deal.

1766
01:38:36,800 --> 01:38:37,990
And we examine it,

1767
01:38:38,620 --> 01:38:41,810
Let's try to decide if it will be

1768
01:38:42,010 --> 01:38:44,790
Suitable for our business.

1769
01:38:45,540 --> 01:38:50,730
Sometime after that,
I invited Mr. O'Keefe and his partners to Vancouver.

1770
01:38:50,930 --> 01:38:54,240
As far as I remember, they came for dinner

1771
01:38:54,620 --> 01:38:56,950
On my boat and we discussed things.

1772
01:38:58,490 --> 01:39:01,120
After that, it's hard to say.

1773
01:39:02,160 --> 01:39:05,620
Usually at this stage,
I hand things over to my acquisitions team.

1774
01:39:07,240 --> 01:39:08,410
That's nice.

1775
01:39:09,330 --> 01:39:10,540
I really mean it.

1776
01:39:11,160 --> 01:39:17,020
Fortunately for you, Mr. Lewin,
I don't have a lot of questions next.

1777
01:39:17,220 --> 01:39:20,830
I only have one question to ask you.

1778
01:39:22,490 --> 01:39:23,700
What kind of boat?

1779
01:39:24,370 --> 01:39:25,410
Can you repeat the question?

1780
01:39:26,540 --> 01:39:27,870
Q: What kind of boat?

1781
01:39:28,790 --> 01:39:31,350
You said earlier that you were all on board

1782
01:39:31,550 --> 01:39:34,440
And you were eating and enjoying your time
Eating the best fish,

1783
01:39:34,630 --> 01:39:36,730
And I want to know, what kind of boat is it?

1784
01:39:36,930 --> 01:39:40,580
I don't understand. I'm wondering about the specific model...

1785
01:39:42,120 --> 01:39:43,700
Actually, I was asking...

1786
01:39:44,830 --> 01:39:48,330
Can I read from this?
It says, “9 sunbeds.

1787
01:39:49,410 --> 01:39:50,940
And 6 elegant and luxurious rooms.

1788
01:39:51,130 --> 01:39:53,350
- Objection, Your Honor!
- "5 luxurious guest rooms."

1789
01:39:53,550 --> 01:39:55,440
- - What is the connection of the witness’s boat to the matter?
- Objection rejected.

1790
01:39:55,630 --> 01:39:56,890
-It's a beautiful boat.
- Objection rejected.

1791
01:39:57,090 --> 01:39:59,120
I just want to clarify...

1792
01:39:59,990 --> 01:40:01,890
For everyone to see that it is a very beautiful boat.

1793
01:40:02,090 --> 01:40:04,140
You have a helicopter landing pad.

1794
01:40:04,340 --> 01:40:06,330
You can land a helicopter on the boat, right?

1795
01:40:06,990 --> 01:40:09,230
It is a very luxurious boat.

1796
01:40:09,430 --> 01:40:12,450
How much did this boat cost you?

1797
01:40:15,040 --> 01:40:16,310
I don't really know.

1798
01:40:16,510 --> 01:40:19,690
I think we... You don't understand the question.

1799
01:40:19,880 --> 01:40:22,560
Let me rephrase it so you can understand it better.

1800
01:40:22,760 --> 01:40:28,120
I ask you, how much did you pay for your boat?

1801
01:40:29,870 --> 01:40:31,640
- - I don't know.
- Objection.

1802
01:40:31,840 --> 01:40:33,390
-Can I ask...
- He was asked and answered.

1803
01:40:33,590 --> 01:40:36,870
Forget that. Let me ask you this.
How much did you pay for your plane?

1804
01:40:37,580 --> 01:40:39,690
Because you remember some things and forget other things,

1805
01:40:39,880 --> 01:40:40,940
How much did your plane cost?

1806
01:40:41,130 --> 01:40:44,310
How much did you pay for your plane, Mr. Gary?
I saw her on the runway.

1807
01:40:44,510 --> 01:40:47,310
Do you know something? We can talk
For the price I paid for my plane.

1808
01:40:47,510 --> 01:40:48,810
I know exactly how much it was.

1809
01:40:49,010 --> 01:40:50,390
We're not talking about my plane.

1810
01:40:50,590 --> 01:40:52,160
Rather, we are talking about your boat.

1811
01:40:52,580 --> 01:40:56,520
So I will ask again
So that everyone can hear and understand what I am saying

1812
01:40:56,720 --> 01:41:00,850
Mr. Lewin, the billionaire,
Who does not know the price of his boat

1813
01:41:01,050 --> 01:41:03,100
In which he had dinner with his colleagues.

1814
01:41:03,300 --> 01:41:04,480
I will ask you again.

1815
01:41:04,680 --> 01:41:07,540
How much did you pay for your boat?

1816
01:41:09,910 --> 01:41:11,040
I don't know.

1817
01:41:13,040 --> 01:41:14,850
I think he doesn't hear what I'm saying.

1818
01:41:15,050 --> 01:41:16,600
I will ask you again.

1819
01:41:16,800 --> 01:41:18,580
How much did your boat cost?

1820
01:41:20,040 --> 01:41:21,100
What do you mean?

1821
01:41:21,300 --> 01:41:23,520
What do I mean?

1822
01:41:23,720 --> 01:41:27,740
While you were sitting sunbathing on the boat
whose price is 25 million dollars,

1823
01:41:28,160 --> 01:41:32,140
And you eat lobster at a cost of $30,
Did you feel disturbed?

1824
01:41:32,340 --> 01:41:35,980
That all of this was at the expense of the poor and needy

1825
01:41:36,180 --> 01:41:39,190
Who your company has been systematically exploiting

1826
01:41:39,380 --> 01:41:41,640
-And you earn from them daily?
- Objection!

1827
01:41:41,840 --> 01:41:45,640
Not only that,
They even took advantage of them in their darkest circumstances.

1828
01:41:45,840 --> 01:41:48,390
As they face persecution and losing someone,

1829
01:41:48,590 --> 01:41:49,770
They are in mourning.

1830
01:41:49,970 --> 01:41:51,640
Who has to pay the price now?

1831
01:41:51,840 --> 01:41:54,230
Small business people like Jeremiah O'Keefe.

1832
01:41:54,430 --> 01:41:58,230
Small businessmen in this country
who work hard to pay for everything,

1833
01:41:58,430 --> 01:42:03,020
And remain steadfast in their work,
While greedy companies

1834
01:42:03,220 --> 01:42:04,850
She does everything she can and...

1835
01:42:05,050 --> 01:42:06,600
- - These greedy companies.
- Objection.

1836
01:42:06,800 --> 01:42:08,350
- This is what you do.
- I've had enough.

1837
01:42:08,550 --> 01:42:09,770
Sit down.

1838
01:42:09,970 --> 01:42:11,140
You have to sit down

1839
01:42:11,340 --> 01:42:14,060
Until I finish talking because I'm not finished.

1840
01:42:14,260 --> 01:42:16,560
- - I have a lot left that I have not finished.
- Mr. Gary!

1841
01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:20,080
Such words will not be tolerated in my court.

1842
01:42:22,490 --> 01:42:27,190
Mr. Lowen,
You will not leave the witness stand until I allow you.

1843
01:42:27,380 --> 01:42:28,580
Do you understand?

1844
01:42:41,240 --> 01:42:44,990
You can continue, Mr. Gary.
But I warn you to be gentle.

1845
01:42:56,660 --> 01:42:57,870
Yes.

1846
01:43:08,580 --> 01:43:10,080
I just want to know one thing.

1847
01:43:13,700 --> 01:43:15,290
Did that ever bother you?

1848
01:43:18,910 --> 01:43:19,910
No.

1849
01:43:29,200 --> 01:43:30,410
This is all I need.

1850
01:43:35,910 --> 01:43:37,160
You can leave.

1851
01:43:46,910 --> 01:43:48,350
What a bastard!

1852
01:43:48,550 --> 01:43:50,190
What a bastard!

1853
01:43:50,380 --> 01:43:53,020
What was this?

1854
01:43:53,220 --> 01:43:55,240
I was humiliated there!

1855
01:44:03,870 --> 01:44:06,040
Warrior sister, what do you have for me?

1856
01:44:06,490 --> 01:44:09,310
I came to tell you that we have reached a decision.

1857
01:44:09,510 --> 01:44:11,580
truly? What did you decide?

1858
01:44:11,870 --> 01:44:14,940
In light of recent events,
Seems like it would be better

1859
01:44:15,130 --> 01:44:18,740
For all parties concerned
To re-discuss the settlement.

1860
01:44:20,080 --> 01:44:22,160
In other words, we...

1861
01:44:23,740 --> 01:44:27,910
We are ready to make a generous offer to your client.

1862
01:44:28,620 --> 01:44:32,350
I know it's hard for you to say this,
But how much is the offer?

1863
01:44:32,550 --> 01:44:35,310
Cooperate with me, Willie.
The amount will not be $100 million.

1864
01:44:35,510 --> 01:44:36,560
What do you mean?

1865
01:44:36,760 --> 01:44:39,940
It goes without saying that it will be
Within the scope of what Jerry guarantees.

1866
01:44:40,130 --> 01:44:42,980
For his children and grandchildren
To never worry about anything again.

1867
01:44:43,180 --> 01:44:44,690
- This sounds good.
- Yes.

1868
01:44:44,880 --> 01:44:46,040
But I'll tell you something.

1869
01:44:47,080 --> 01:44:49,660
Why don't we meet in your room in two hours?

1870
01:44:50,370 --> 01:44:53,540
Make sure to bring your best negotiators.
Do you know why?

1871
01:44:55,160 --> 01:44:56,830
Because you're going to need to.

1872
01:44:59,990 --> 01:45:04,350
Compensation is usually awarded for damages
Just to bring back the plaintiff

1873
01:45:04,550 --> 01:45:07,270
To the situation he or she was in
Before damage occurs.

1874
01:45:07,470 --> 01:45:11,310
But, given how long this whole issue is,

1875
01:45:11,510 --> 01:45:13,730
We believe that it is in the interest of all of us

1876
01:45:13,930 --> 01:45:15,810
To resolve this matter once and for all.

1877
01:45:16,010 --> 01:45:19,890
We would like to offer you what we consider to be a generous offer.

1878
01:45:20,090 --> 01:45:22,020
Obviously, if you refuse to accept it

1879
01:45:22,220 --> 01:45:26,230
We can all go back to court tomorrow,
Let's try our luck with the jury,

1880
01:45:26,430 --> 01:45:29,480
But honestly, your chances of winning

1881
01:45:29,680 --> 01:45:33,830
Or you are close to obtaining this amount,
A risk I doubt you want to take.

1882
01:45:44,990 --> 01:45:46,120
Okay.

1883
01:45:46,740 --> 01:45:47,870
Here is our offer.

1884
01:46:08,910 --> 01:46:10,200
This is rejected.

1885
01:46:11,990 --> 01:46:13,240
Are you serious?

1886
01:46:14,160 --> 01:46:16,270
- - Is he serious?
- I said the offer was rejected.

1887
01:46:16,470 --> 01:46:19,640
You mean you're really going to decline the offer?

1888
01:46:19,840 --> 01:46:23,390
Are you sure you don't want more time?
To think carefully about it?

1889
01:46:23,590 --> 01:46:25,890
- - I thought about it carefully enough.
- Really?

1890
01:46:26,090 --> 01:46:28,890
We both know that's a sum
Bigger than you'll ever see in your life.

1891
01:46:29,090 --> 01:46:31,770
Will we get to work or will you continue to waste our time?

1892
01:46:31,970 --> 01:46:33,370
The man answered in the negative.

1893
01:46:35,790 --> 01:46:38,790
- - I think we have to present the best and latest offer.
- Okay.

1894
01:46:40,990 --> 01:46:42,540
-Are you sure?
- Yes.

1895
01:46:54,740 --> 01:46:56,080
The best and final offer.

1896
01:47:30,660 --> 01:47:32,200
I still reject it.

1897
01:47:33,870 --> 01:47:36,270
This is unbelievable.

1898
01:47:36,470 --> 01:47:38,230
What's wrong with you, O'Keefe?

1899
01:47:38,430 --> 01:47:40,940
You can't honestly tell me that's not enough.

1900
01:47:41,130 --> 01:47:44,080
It's more than enough for me.
But it's not enough for you.

1901
01:47:44,790 --> 01:47:47,410
- - For me?
- I mean enough to put you out of work.

1902
01:47:49,290 --> 01:47:50,580
For your sake.

1903
01:47:50,990 --> 01:47:52,310
Let me tell you something, buddy.

1904
01:47:52,510 --> 01:47:55,730
The amount of money required to put me out of work,

1905
01:47:55,930 --> 01:47:58,040
the real amount,

1906
01:47:58,910 --> 01:48:00,790
It's a number you can't even calculate.

1907
01:48:01,410 --> 01:48:02,830
Take the money, Jerry.

1908
01:48:03,120 --> 01:48:05,440
- - You are 80 years old.
- Rather, 75 years.

1909
01:48:05,630 --> 01:48:06,940
Can you talk to your client?

1910
01:48:07,130 --> 01:48:08,940
- About what?
- Regarding his refusal...

1911
01:48:09,130 --> 01:48:11,230
He said no.
As far as I know, that means rejection, right?

1912
01:48:11,430 --> 01:48:17,270
How do you feel when you are a petty and unimportant funeral director?

1913
01:48:17,470 --> 01:48:18,810
On the verge of bankruptcy

1914
01:48:19,010 --> 01:48:22,690
And you just turned down your only chance

1915
01:48:22,880 --> 01:48:25,040
For $75 million?

1916
01:48:25,790 --> 01:48:27,200
How do I feel?

1917
01:48:36,580 --> 01:48:37,740
“I feel relieved

1918
01:48:38,660 --> 01:48:40,080
I feel good

1919
01:48:42,080 --> 01:48:44,020
- - I feel relieved
“I feel good, yeah.”

1920
01:48:44,220 --> 01:48:46,060
Yes, that's the feeling.

1921
01:48:46,260 --> 01:48:48,080
- “I feel relieved
“I feel good.”

1922
01:48:49,120 --> 01:48:50,810
We're done. He refused.

1923
01:48:51,010 --> 01:48:52,730
- - We'll see you in court.
-You can leave.

1924
01:48:52,930 --> 01:48:54,850
- Thank you.
- She's a joke.

1925
01:48:55,050 --> 01:48:56,790
“I feel relieved

1926
01:48:57,290 --> 01:48:59,270
I feel good

1927
01:48:59,470 --> 01:49:01,370
"I feel good"

1928
01:49:08,580 --> 01:49:09,910
Surprise!

1929
01:49:10,950 --> 01:49:12,890
- - Guess who's here!
-What are you doing?

1930
01:49:13,090 --> 01:49:14,910
I saw that you needed companionship.

1931
01:49:16,450 --> 01:49:18,200
- - My dear.
-I missed you so much.

1932
01:49:22,950 --> 01:49:23,850
True.

1933
01:49:24,050 --> 01:49:26,120
- This is how we dance.
- True.

1934
01:49:27,830 --> 01:49:29,690
Come on, hurry up now.

1935
01:49:29,880 --> 01:49:31,520
- Hurry now. It is enough.
- Yes.

1936
01:49:31,720 --> 01:49:33,200
That's enough.

1937
01:49:36,450 --> 01:49:37,440
This is all for me.

1938
01:49:37,630 --> 01:49:38,980
Closing arguments tomorrow.

1939
01:49:39,180 --> 01:49:40,700
You think I don't know that?

1940
01:49:41,490 --> 01:49:42,950
I took on many big cases,

1941
01:49:43,490 --> 01:49:46,740
But in this particular...

1942
01:49:50,910 --> 01:49:52,740
Many people's lives depend on me.

1943
01:49:53,290 --> 01:49:54,240
And also...

1944
01:49:55,660 --> 01:49:57,950
I kind of feel something like that.

1945
01:50:00,910 --> 01:50:02,440
Especially...

1946
01:50:02,630 --> 01:50:04,330
Especially when it comes to Jerry.

1947
01:50:09,080 --> 01:50:10,040
So...

1948
01:50:12,370 --> 01:50:13,940
I don't want to lose.

1949
01:50:14,130 --> 01:50:17,660
I don't think...

1950
01:50:19,450 --> 01:50:20,950
What if you lose?

1951
01:50:22,120 --> 01:50:26,040
And let all these people down?

1952
01:50:28,990 --> 01:50:30,200
In fact,

1953
01:50:31,740 --> 01:50:33,660
You will not let them down,

1954
01:50:34,830 --> 01:50:36,370
So you don't have to worry.

1955
01:50:42,490 --> 01:50:45,240
You know that for sure
Lady Gloria?

1956
01:50:45,870 --> 01:50:48,620
I'm not sure about that. But I am sure of you.

1957
01:50:55,700 --> 01:50:57,450
I know the man I married.

1958
01:50:58,830 --> 01:50:59,950
Yes, my dear.

1959
01:51:04,160 --> 01:51:07,870
But can I suggest something to you, my dear?

1960
01:51:08,540 --> 01:51:10,040
Really? What is it?

1961
01:51:13,040 --> 01:51:14,770
When you're in court tomorrow

1962
01:51:14,970 --> 01:51:16,740
- - To do your job...
- To do my job.

1963
01:51:19,910 --> 01:51:25,410
Try not to refer to yourself in the third person.

1964
01:51:28,080 --> 01:51:29,120
Understood?

1965
01:51:31,990 --> 01:51:35,910
What? What do you mean, "Glu"?

1966
01:51:36,450 --> 01:51:37,620
I don't do that.

1967
01:51:37,950 --> 01:51:40,060
- - But you do it.
- No, I don't do it.

1968
01:51:40,260 --> 01:51:41,330
Do it a little.

1969
01:51:42,120 --> 01:51:44,240
I don't think I do that.

1970
01:51:46,580 --> 01:51:49,660
Get ready, girl, Willie Gary.
"I'm coming upstairs now."

1971
01:51:50,790 --> 01:51:53,580
- Believe me, you do.
- Yes.

1972
01:51:55,330 --> 01:51:58,370
I think "Willie Gary"
He does this from time to time.

1973
01:52:30,830 --> 01:52:32,540
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,

1974
01:52:35,490 --> 01:52:37,870
I have one simple question to ask.

1975
01:52:39,950 --> 01:52:41,870
Do you mind if I keep things simple?

1976
01:52:44,490 --> 01:52:46,290
So that speech is clear and normal.

1977
01:53:12,370 --> 01:53:13,950
Did the jury reach a verdict?

1978
01:53:14,660 --> 01:53:18,350
{\an8}"November 1, 1995"

1979
01:53:18,550 --> 01:53:20,330
{\an8}After careful study,

1980
01:53:21,200 --> 01:53:25,520
We are the jurors in Case No. 9661

1981
01:53:25,720 --> 01:53:27,890
In the Hinds County Courthouse,

1982
01:53:28,090 --> 01:53:32,520
Mr. Jeremiah J. O'Keefe
v. Lowen Group Limited,

1983
01:53:32,720 --> 01:53:34,830
We decided to rule in favor

1984
01:53:35,410 --> 01:53:37,990
Plaintiff Jeremiah O'Keefe.

1985
01:53:41,950 --> 01:53:46,870
We have also decided to grant $100 million

1986
01:53:47,160 --> 01:53:50,560
As compensation for damages to be paid to Mr. O'Keefe.

1987
01:53:50,760 --> 01:53:53,330
By the defendants,
LOWEN GROUP LIMITED.

1988
01:53:55,700 --> 01:53:56,790
And also...

1989
01:53:59,330 --> 01:54:02,020
Judgment of $400 million...

1990
01:54:02,220 --> 01:54:03,600
- - I told you!
- ...as punitive damages

1991
01:54:03,800 --> 01:54:07,890
Paid by the defendants, the Lowen Group.
To Mr. O'Keefe.

1992
01:54:08,090 --> 01:54:09,660
Worth it. Hurray!

1993
01:55:07,200 --> 01:55:09,120
$500 million, Jerry.

1994
01:55:12,240 --> 01:55:13,540
I know that, Willie.

1995
01:55:16,580 --> 01:55:17,660
I know that.

1996
01:55:49,410 --> 01:55:50,830
Hello, Willie.

1997
01:55:52,700 --> 01:55:53,870
Hello Mim.

1998
01:55:54,410 --> 01:55:57,740
Why did you come?
Have you come for your last chance at revenge?

1999
01:55:57,990 --> 01:56:00,440
My last chance for revenge? No.

2000
01:56:00,630 --> 01:56:03,310
- - I just wanted to congratulate you.
- Really?

2001
01:56:03,510 --> 01:56:05,200
- - Yes.
- Congratulate me?

2002
01:56:06,200 --> 01:56:08,120
Come on. You mean that?

2003
01:56:09,330 --> 01:56:10,690
Listen, I hate losing,

2004
01:56:10,880 --> 01:56:13,390
But it was a well-deserved victory.
I can be honest about that.

2005
01:56:13,590 --> 01:56:16,230
A deserved victory? It's $500 million.

2006
01:56:16,430 --> 01:56:19,290
I know you deep down
You think that is an exaggerated amount.

2007
01:56:21,910 --> 01:56:24,480
Maybe there's a part of me that thinks it's not enough.

2008
01:56:24,680 --> 01:56:25,950
I'm willing to take more.

2009
01:56:27,620 --> 01:56:29,120
Good luck to you, Willie Gary.

2010
01:56:30,200 --> 01:56:32,850
Stay in touch. I hope we meet.

2011
01:56:33,050 --> 01:56:35,620
Hey Mim.

2012
01:56:36,700 --> 01:56:37,950
I have to tell you something.

2013
01:56:38,540 --> 01:56:41,330
You are one of the toughest lawyers I have ever encountered.

2014
01:56:44,200 --> 01:56:45,290
And you too.

2015
01:56:47,160 --> 01:56:49,200
Johnny must be impressed.

2016
01:56:52,830 --> 01:56:53,660
"Johnny."

2017
01:57:00,830 --> 01:57:03,690
“After appealing the ruling,
Lewin's group finally agreed

How are you? "Willie Gary." I can't believe this.
