1
00:00:08,873 --> 00:00:11,456
Excuse me. Uh, where is
walter schmidt's room, please?
2
00:00:11,864 --> 00:00:12,976
Shirley.
oh.
3
00:00:13,431 --> 00:00:13,880
What happened?
4
00:00:14,295 --> 00:00:15,511
He's okay.
He broke a few ribs.
5
00:00:15,992 --> 00:00:17,384
He's resting right now.
What happened?
6
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,424
He took a turn this week.
7
00:00:19,992 --> 00:00:22,584
He doesn't recognize any of us
at the nursing home anymore.
8
00:00:23,128 --> 00:00:25,719
He's been getting agitated,
always seems to be terrified.
9
00:00:26,151 --> 00:00:27,095
How did he get hurt?
10
00:00:28,391 --> 00:00:30,327
He, uh, jued out
of his bedroom window.
11
00:00:30,967 --> 00:00:34,280
A hedge broke his fall
and probably saved his life.
12
00:00:37,376 --> 00:00:38,848
He jumped out the window?
13
00:00:39,231 --> 00:00:41,511
His dementia.
I've gotta get back there.
14
00:00:41,856 --> 00:00:42,511
He's not doing so well.
15
00:00:43,032 --> 00:00:43,767
I'll join you.
16
00:00:44,111 --> 00:00:44,808
Oh, thanks.
I'll be fine.
17
00:00:45,151 --> 00:00:46,872
Well, m-maybe
he'll recognize me.
18
00:00:47,224 --> 00:00:49,512
I- I always had a great
relationship with your father.
19
00:00:49,896 --> 00:00:51,168
We'd hunt, we'd fish.
20
00:00:51,584 --> 00:00:53,016
Remember the time
I shot him in the calf?
21
00:00:53,376 --> 00:00:54,576
Oh, you're lucky
he doesn't rember.
22
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,688
I'd really rather go alone.
I'd like to see him.
23
00:00:57,151 --> 00:00:59,461
I was always very fond
of your father. Really?
24
00:00:59,820 --> 00:01:01,165
And he always liked me.
25
00:01:01,500 --> 00:01:04,260
Yes, he did.
Okay then, let's go.
26
00:01:07,765 --> 00:01:08,837
Jerry, what's wrong?
27
00:01:09,533 --> 00:01:11,181
I'm in trouble.
What sort of trouble?
28
00:01:11,837 --> 00:01:13,925
Oh, I can't tell you.
Why can't you tell me?
29
00:01:14,316 --> 00:01:16,893
You're a girl! It's man trouble?
Did you get a woman pregnant?
30
00:01:18,588 --> 00:01:18,980
Dear god.
31
00:01:19,412 --> 00:01:20,124
It isn't that.
32
00:01:20,765 --> 00:01:22,453
Well, stop whinging
and just tell me.
33
00:01:27,861 --> 00:01:30,524
Well... During the strike,
I fell in love.
34
00:01:32,357 --> 00:01:32,892
What strike?
It doesn't matter.
35
00:01:33,292 --> 00:01:34,612
The point is,
I met somebody wonderful.
36
00:01:35,189 --> 00:01:35,892
Fab. And?
37
00:01:36,284 --> 00:01:39,214
And she's suing me
for sexual assault.
38
00:01:39,684 --> 00:01:40,725
Sexual assault?
39
00:01:41,701 --> 00:01:43,229
Stop squealing.
You sound like a stuck pig.
40
00:01:44,269 --> 00:01:45,788
What happened? Did you
touch her without her consent?
41
00:01:46,284 --> 00:01:47,109
No, I would never!
42
00:01:47,797 --> 00:01:48,628
She's claiming I--
43
00:01:49,100 --> 00:01:51,717
She's saying...
I drugged her.
44
00:01:55,429 --> 00:01:56,180
Jerry...
45
00:01:57,837 --> 00:01:58,413
Did you?
46
00:02:03,781 --> 00:02:04,788
Well...
47
00:02:05,916 --> 00:02:06,869
Maybe a little.
48
00:02:39,260 --> 00:02:40,340
I'm hoping to make it
to the island
49
00:02:40,668 --> 00:02:41,212
on memorial day,
50
00:02:41,700 --> 00:02:42,596
if I can dig myself
out of here.
51
00:02:43,172 --> 00:02:44,485
That'd be great.
We've missed you.
52
00:02:44,877 --> 00:02:45,741
Aw. Please.
mm.
53
00:02:48,557 --> 00:02:50,133
So... What can I do
for you?
54
00:02:50,549 --> 00:02:53,004
Well, take a breath,
have a seat, carl.
55
00:02:53,596 --> 00:02:54,308
All right.
56
00:02:54,709 --> 00:02:55,212
'cause this is a biggie.
57
00:02:55,716 --> 00:02:56,420
Mm. Let me have it.
58
00:02:57,420 --> 00:02:58,650
We want to build
an atomic bomb.
59
00:03:03,009 --> 00:03:03,713
What are you talking about?
60
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:05,096
We want to build
a weapon of mass destruction
61
00:03:05,424 --> 00:03:06,464
thatwecontrol.
62
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:09,857
By "we," you mean--
Nantucket.
63
00:03:10,409 --> 00:03:12,497
I'm here officially as head
of the board of selectmen,
64
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,393
and liz is here as mayor.
65
00:03:15,017 --> 00:03:17,129
We're a very small island,
totally exposed.
66
00:03:17,689 --> 00:03:18,625
The homeowners
67
00:03:18,969 --> 00:03:20,081
are becoming increasingly
concerned about security,
68
00:03:20,441 --> 00:03:22,384
and well... We're rich,
we can afford it, we want one.
69
00:03:25,457 --> 00:03:26,464
An atomic bomb...
70
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,921
On nantucket?
71
00:03:30,624 --> 00:03:32,105
We've been denied approval
to purchase plutonium
72
00:03:32,457 --> 00:03:33,833
by the nuclear regulatory
commission.
73
00:03:34,209 --> 00:03:35,009
Don't you hate that?
74
00:03:35,425 --> 00:03:36,153
We'd like to sue.
75
00:03:40,961 --> 00:03:42,656
What kind of drugs are we taking
on the island these days?
76
00:03:43,168 --> 00:03:44,384
Carl, I know it sounds crazy. You think?
77
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,200
But if something ever happens,
78
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:47,913
which the government says
is inevitable, by the way,
79
00:03:48,304 --> 00:03:51,612
who's going to come rushing
to protect us, the vineyard?
80
00:03:52,252 --> 00:03:53,748
No, no. We need to look out
for ourselves.
81
00:03:54,212 --> 00:03:56,420
And fortunately,
we have the weal
82
00:03:56,781 --> 00:03:57,612
and the means to do so.
83
00:03:59,116 --> 00:04:00,085
You'd like...
84
00:04:00,684 --> 00:04:01,788
An atomic bomb.
85
00:04:02,485 --> 00:04:03,533
As soon as possible.
86
00:04:16,614 --> 00:04:18,741
Oxytocin? It's a hormone, not a drug.
87
00:04:19,134 --> 00:04:19,853
What does it do?
88
00:04:20,285 --> 00:04:21,661
Well, essentially,
it causes people...
89
00:04:22,013 --> 00:04:23,669
To trust you.
90
00:04:24,381 --> 00:04:26,493
There's a hormone that causes
people to trust you?
91
00:04:26,909 --> 00:04:29,685
I mainly used it for me.
92
00:04:30,325 --> 00:04:32,789
It can also help people
with social anxiies.
93
00:04:33,205 --> 00:04:36,166
It enabled me to trust her
as well.
94
00:04:36,573 --> 00:04:39,637
I'd... Spray it on
like cologne.
95
00:04:40,326 --> 00:04:42,350
It has a nice, gentle fragrance,
not too bold.
96
00:04:44,878 --> 00:04:45,838
Anyway...
97
00:04:47,485 --> 00:04:49,365
Dana...
That's her name...
98
00:04:50,069 --> 00:04:52,061
She found out,
and she's suing me.
99
00:04:56,398 --> 00:04:57,574
You're disappointed in me.
100
00:04:58,821 --> 00:05:01,213
Well, I am, jerry,
truth be told.
101
00:05:17,541 --> 00:05:18,229
dad?
102
00:05:19,382 --> 00:05:20,302
Hey, dad.
103
00:05:21,998 --> 00:05:22,902
Who are you?
104
00:05:27,037 --> 00:05:28,901
Dad, it's-- it's me.
It's-- it's shirley.
105
00:05:36,302 --> 00:05:37,014
You remember denny?
106
00:05:38,822 --> 00:05:40,213
Denny came to say hi.
107
00:05:40,789 --> 00:05:41,477
Hi, walt.
108
00:05:43,445 --> 00:05:45,285
How are those, uh,
ribs healing?
109
00:05:49,029 --> 00:05:50,387
Lookin' good, walt.
110
00:05:59,500 --> 00:06:00,380
He doesn't like
to be touched.
111
00:06:01,404 --> 00:06:02,755
Where's the attending?
112
00:06:03,244 --> 00:06:04,531
I'll call for him.
113
00:06:17,371 --> 00:06:18,987
A nuclear bomb
on nantucket?
114
00:06:19,652 --> 00:06:21,763
Are they insane? Poor
people are insane, whitney.
115
00:06:22,076 --> 00:06:23,411
Rich people are colorful.
116
00:06:23,779 --> 00:06:25,516
Yes, well, assuming
the colorful people are sincere,
117
00:06:25,867 --> 00:06:27,483
how can you be about to
actually take the case?
118
00:06:27,931 --> 00:06:30,134
Well, first, their security
concerns are legitimate.
119
00:06:30,709 --> 00:06:32,862
Second, nuclear bombs are
becoming more and more viable,
120
00:06:33,340 --> 00:06:34,125
easier to build.
121
00:06:34,629 --> 00:06:36,477
The world landscape one day
will be dotted with them.
122
00:06:36,893 --> 00:06:39,269
Why not nantucket?
And third-- most importantly--
123
00:06:39,701 --> 00:06:40,949
When an island
full of millionaires
124
00:06:41,269 --> 00:06:42,405
asks us to represent them,
125
00:06:42,678 --> 00:06:45,014
lorraine, we do not refer them
to another firm.
126
00:06:46,437 --> 00:06:47,430
I need you three
127
00:06:47,709 --> 00:06:49,901
to arm me with research
and legal analysis
128
00:06:50,342 --> 00:06:53,509
as to why nantucket
shouldhave a bomb.
129
00:06:57,630 --> 00:06:58,893
Hello.
I'm Dr. Bromfield.
130
00:07:01,701 --> 00:07:02,285
Shirley schmidt.
131
00:07:02,669 --> 00:07:03,158
Nice to meet you,
132
00:07:03,518 --> 00:07:05,326
though not under
these circumstances.
133
00:07:06,637 --> 00:07:08,477
Uh, this is denny crane.
134
00:07:08,862 --> 00:07:10,397
Hello.
hey.
135
00:07:10,693 --> 00:07:12,167
I wish I could tell you
something positive.
136
00:07:12,543 --> 00:07:14,056
I'm afraid the best we can do
is try and keep him calm.
137
00:07:14,624 --> 00:07:16,336
I don't dare move him.
138
00:07:16,664 --> 00:07:17,807
I'm concerned
that he'll reinjure his ribs.
139
00:07:19,183 --> 00:07:21,967
I would like to hook him up
to a morphine drip, please.
140
00:07:23,959 --> 00:07:27,519
His injuries are causing him
considerable pain.
141
00:07:27,895 --> 00:07:29,343
I'd like this done
as soon as possible.
142
00:07:31,303 --> 00:07:32,400
I, um...
143
00:07:33,415 --> 00:07:35,655
He-- he seems
to be comfortable now.
144
00:07:36,023 --> 00:07:38,095
He's not. I know him
better than you.
145
00:07:39,263 --> 00:07:41,199
I'd like the drip, please.
146
00:07:42,359 --> 00:07:43,152
Ms. Schmidt...
147
00:07:44,535 --> 00:07:46,088
I can't do
what you're asking me to do.
148
00:07:47,991 --> 00:07:49,871
I'm asking you
to manage his pain, doctor.
149
00:07:50,295 --> 00:07:50,880
I'm very sorry.
150
00:07:52,118 --> 00:07:54,591
I don't think a morphine drip
is indicated here.
151
00:07:54,983 --> 00:07:55,695
Ned thiel...
152
00:07:56,911 --> 00:07:59,023
Is he still
chief of staff here?
153
00:07:59,895 --> 00:08:02,280
He is.
Get him.
154
00:08:10,671 --> 00:08:11,415
Look...
155
00:08:12,167 --> 00:08:13,831
I know what you're asking for,
and I sympathize.
156
00:08:14,423 --> 00:08:16,263
My own father
died of alzheimer's--
157
00:08:16,623 --> 00:08:18,671
You know this, denny--
But we have laws.
158
00:08:19,159 --> 00:08:20,863
This goes on all the time.
You know that.
159
00:08:21,359 --> 00:08:23,304
Well, it happens sometimes
with, as I said,
160
00:08:23,696 --> 00:08:26,416
patients
in severe physical pain.
161
00:08:27,088 --> 00:08:27,967
But look at him.
162
00:08:28,455 --> 00:08:29,904
How do we couch this
as pain management?
163
00:08:30,543 --> 00:08:33,425
You simply believe me when I
tell you that he is hurting.
164
00:08:35,111 --> 00:08:36,033
Come on, ned.
165
00:08:36,361 --> 00:08:37,313
We're not asking
for anything
166
00:08:37,585 --> 00:08:38,913
that doesn't happen
in every hospital every day.
167
00:08:42,178 --> 00:08:42,689
I can't.
168
00:08:43,465 --> 00:08:46,137
But if you get a court order
forcing our hand,
169
00:08:46,545 --> 00:08:49,913
I suppose we'll have
no choice but to abide.
170
00:08:50,577 --> 00:08:52,761
I'll argue it myself.
Let's go.
171
00:08:53,754 --> 00:08:54,249
Thank you, doctor.
172
00:08:55,554 --> 00:08:56,554
Uh... Denny?
173
00:08:57,618 --> 00:08:58,458
i...
174
00:08:59,961 --> 00:09:03,463
I- I think I would like
alan to argue this.
175
00:09:04,071 --> 00:09:05,711
It's-- it's going to be tough,
176
00:09:06,095 --> 00:09:07,975
getting the judge
off this dime,
177
00:09:08,376 --> 00:09:11,823
and... I think this is
sort of alan's wheelhouse.
178
00:09:16,535 --> 00:09:17,319
Okay.
179
00:09:18,327 --> 00:09:19,719
I guess that makes sense.
180
00:09:22,167 --> 00:09:23,386
Let's go get alan.
181
00:09:33,794 --> 00:09:35,690
an atomic bomb...
In nantucket?
182
00:09:36,154 --> 00:09:37,994
Are you kidding me?
No, I'm not, your honor.
183
00:09:38,402 --> 00:09:40,570
Nor is our president kidding
when he constantly tells us
184
00:09:40,914 --> 00:09:41,538
to be afraid.
185
00:09:41,915 --> 00:09:43,875
Nantucket is riddled
with republicans, by the way.
186
00:09:44,387 --> 00:09:45,575
They believe
our commander in chief
187
00:09:45,887 --> 00:09:46,423
when he cries wolf.
188
00:09:46,934 --> 00:09:48,174
They believe john mccain
as he cries double wolf.
189
00:09:48,558 --> 00:09:50,046
Some even believe cheney
when he says
190
00:09:50,318 --> 00:09:54,002
the bomb's already been fired at us, it's
just on a timer. The court dismisses--
191
00:09:58,738 --> 00:10:02,538
Your honor, as ridiculous
as this may seem on its face,
192
00:10:02,994 --> 00:10:04,626
let's consider, your honor,
193
00:10:05,010 --> 00:10:07,043
nantucket is all by itself
out there.
194
00:10:07,539 --> 00:10:09,546
It wouldn't be a high priority
to defend
195
00:10:09,971 --> 00:10:11,323
should this country
be under attack.
196
00:10:11,731 --> 00:10:13,491
Shouldn't they be allowed
to defend themselves?
197
00:10:14,202 --> 00:10:16,298
I would ask you at least listen
to my client
198
00:10:16,818 --> 00:10:17,850
before quashing our request.
199
00:10:23,578 --> 00:10:25,586
I'll give your client
15 minutes.
200
00:10:27,130 --> 00:10:28,290
3:00.
201
00:10:29,050 --> 00:10:30,572
What are you looking at?
202
00:10:35,116 --> 00:10:36,092
I don't mean
to sound indelicate,
203
00:10:36,445 --> 00:10:38,237
but how far gone is he?
Very.
204
00:10:38,652 --> 00:10:41,764
He's been virtually
uncommunicative for a while,
205
00:10:42,468 --> 00:10:45,828
but... Now he...
Doesn't recognize anyone,
206
00:10:46,507 --> 00:10:47,524
including me.
207
00:10:49,268 --> 00:10:51,708
This man who was once
bigger than life,
208
00:10:52,260 --> 00:10:53,236
a maverick...
209
00:10:54,588 --> 00:10:55,940
It's obscene.
210
00:11:02,060 --> 00:11:03,260
Did he execute a living will?
211
00:11:03,684 --> 00:11:04,454
He did.
212
00:11:05,005 --> 00:11:08,100
No extraordinary
lifesaving measures, but...
213
00:11:10,276 --> 00:11:11,477
We'll be asking
a court's permissi
214
00:11:12,140 --> 00:11:12,965
to put him to sleep.
215
00:11:14,765 --> 00:11:15,324
yes.
216
00:11:20,252 --> 00:11:21,724
The proceeding
will be rough, shirley.
217
00:11:24,628 --> 00:11:26,980
Let's try to get this done.
218
00:11:30,340 --> 00:11:31,596
She's coming by herself or--
219
00:11:32,334 --> 00:11:32,982
No, with a lawyer.
220
00:11:33,862 --> 00:11:34,774
Let's not let this
turn emotional, jerry.
221
00:11:35,222 --> 00:11:36,030
I'd prefer
to be straightforward
222
00:11:36,382 --> 00:11:37,966
and proffer strictly
a legal analysis. Okay.
223
00:11:38,502 --> 00:11:40,606
Purring, hopping, squealing
should all be kept to a minimum.
224
00:11:42,766 --> 00:11:43,302
Mm. Mm.
Oh, there she is.
225
00:11:52,439 --> 00:11:52,918
Jerry.
226
00:11:53,366 --> 00:11:54,742
Hello. Hello. Welcome.
227
00:11:55,719 --> 00:11:56,127
Hello.
228
00:11:56,574 --> 00:11:56,942
Hi, I'm pepper minkin,
229
00:11:58,038 --> 00:11:59,458
ms. Dana strickland's
attorney.
230
00:11:59,882 --> 00:12:01,281
Katie lloyd. Pleasure.
Hello.
231
00:12:02,187 --> 00:12:02,731
Hello.
232
00:12:05,499 --> 00:12:06,594
Well, why don't we go in?
233
00:12:07,762 --> 00:12:09,426
Would either of you
like coffee?
234
00:12:09,794 --> 00:12:10,395
I'm fine, thanks.
235
00:12:10,794 --> 00:12:12,771
I'm good.
Coffee makes the ticker race.
236
00:12:15,466 --> 00:12:17,706
Jerry, she's positively
stunning. I know.
237
00:12:18,426 --> 00:12:19,338
How much oxytocin
did you use?
238
00:12:20,195 --> 00:12:21,853
I didn't mn it like that.
Yes, you did.
239
00:12:22,286 --> 00:12:24,619
The island of nantucket
is going to court today
240
00:12:24,964 --> 00:12:26,867
to actually seek
legal permission
241
00:12:27,187 --> 00:12:29,964
to build an atomic bomb
as part of its defense system.
242
00:12:30,588 --> 00:12:31,956
Nantucket, of course being
243
00:12:32,788 --> 00:12:35,171
one of the richest towns in
america-- back in court at 3:00 today.
244
00:12:35,483 --> 00:12:37,627
Nobody, of course, expects
this request to be granted,
245
00:12:37,987 --> 00:12:39,755
but stranger things
have happened.
246
00:12:40,187 --> 00:12:42,107
Did I mention this case
might get a little press?
247
00:12:42,741 --> 00:12:45,971
Carl, I'm begging you, let
me in on this. Uh, well, denn
248
00:12:46,372 --> 00:12:48,452
as you can see, we're already
a little thick with lawyers.
249
00:12:48,788 --> 00:12:50,556
All my life, I'd hoped
that somehow, someday,
250
00:12:50,884 --> 00:12:52,499
i'd be called upon
to help build a nuclear bomb.
251
00:12:53,132 --> 00:12:54,844
Could there be anything more
american than to be part
252
00:12:55,227 --> 00:12:58,283
of blowing up another country?
I got chills. Ah. Um...
253
00:12:58,851 --> 00:13:00,180
Denny can take my place.
254
00:13:01,467 --> 00:13:03,075
With all due respect, I don't
want to be part of this.
255
00:13:03,547 --> 00:13:04,740
I think this case
is reprehensible.
256
00:13:05,540 --> 00:13:07,645
I'm sure texas would love
to have its own bomb.
257
00:13:08,044 --> 00:13:08,955
Maybe alabama, too.
258
00:13:09,380 --> 00:13:13,363
Have you given any thought...
What if we should win this case?
259
00:13:13,987 --> 00:13:14,819
We won't.
260
00:13:15,651 --> 00:13:16,332
And that makes it okay?
261
00:13:17,260 --> 00:13:18,988
Take a despicable cause
for a pile of money
262
00:13:19,403 --> 00:13:20,924
because youknow
you won't win?
263
00:13:21,292 --> 00:13:22,740
What a girl.
No wonder he wears dresses.
264
00:13:24,316 --> 00:13:25,237
I'm not doing this case.
265
00:13:28,988 --> 00:13:29,403
Girl.
266
00:13:30,459 --> 00:13:30,989
I'm in.
267
00:13:35,796 --> 00:13:37,116
He doesn't want
to live like this.
268
00:13:37,531 --> 00:13:40,412
His mind is rotting away,
m- much of it's already gone.
269
00:13:40,860 --> 00:13:43,668
His organs are shutting down,
he's incontinent.
270
00:13:44,220 --> 00:13:47,348
The indignity
is beyond words.
271
00:13:48,107 --> 00:13:51,613
When you father was competent,
did you two ever discuss...
272
00:13:52,051 --> 00:13:55,387
We did.
He signed a living will.
273
00:13:55,787 --> 00:13:58,612
He did not want to be kept alive
by extraordinary means.
274
00:13:59,276 --> 00:14:01,108
But we're not talking about
keeping him alive
275
00:14:01,476 --> 00:14:02,716
with any extraordinary means.
276
00:14:03,379 --> 00:14:05,814
You're here asking
for permission to euthanize him.
277
00:14:06,428 --> 00:14:08,451
My father
is in extreme discomfort.
278
00:14:08,939 --> 00:14:11,499
I am asking to manage his pain
with morphine.
279
00:14:12,003 --> 00:14:13,571
Yes, you have to couch it
in those terms
280
00:14:13,947 --> 00:14:15,396
to get the court order,
but, ms. Schmidt,
281
00:14:16,012 --> 00:14:18,044
you're not denying
what this is really about,
282
00:14:18,644 --> 00:14:21,099
are you? Are you denying
this happens all the time
283
00:14:21,451 --> 00:14:22,707
under the heading
of "pain management"?
284
00:14:23,347 --> 00:14:25,323
When there is actual pain
to manage,
285
00:14:25,963 --> 00:14:26,955
but here, your father
286
00:14:29,804 --> 00:14:30,395
isn't in any real
physical discomfiture.
287
00:14:30,835 --> 00:14:33,091
He's-- he's probably not even
aware of his mental state.
288
00:14:33,628 --> 00:14:36,884
The pain we're talking about
managing here is yours.
289
00:14:38,955 --> 00:14:39,507
First of all,
290
00:14:39,995 --> 00:14:41,876
my father suffered
some broken ribs.
291
00:14:42,219 --> 00:14:43,083
He is in pain.
292
00:14:43,524 --> 00:14:45,731
Second, the agitation
he experiences--
293
00:14:46,148 --> 00:14:48,356
The fear, the anxiety--
294
00:14:48,715 --> 00:14:50,909
Are an extreme form
of discomfiture, Mr. Hollis.
295
00:14:51,324 --> 00:14:53,916
Please do not suggest to me
that he does not anguish.
296
00:15:03,181 --> 00:15:10,204
The other fact...
297
00:15:12,004 --> 00:15:13,308
Is what, sir?
298
00:15:13,780 --> 00:15:15,044
Well, the pain
we're talking about
299
00:15:15,469 --> 00:15:16,820
is from injuries
that will heal.
300
00:15:17,244 --> 00:15:19,036
In cases where morphine drips
have been turned up
301
00:15:19,349 --> 00:15:20,189
with fatal results,
302
00:15:20,613 --> 00:15:22,845
it's irreversible pain,
which,
303
00:15:23,189 --> 00:15:24,917
I certainly sympathize
with the family's position.
304
00:15:25,253 --> 00:15:25,996
If it were my father,
305
00:15:26,333 --> 00:15:27,412
I would probably
want to do the same thing.
306
00:15:27,788 --> 00:15:29,740
But the law
simply doesn't allow it.
307
00:15:30,884 --> 00:15:32,717
I read an article that said
people in comas
308
00:15:33,237 --> 00:15:35,854
can actually experience
physical pain.
309
00:15:36,277 --> 00:15:37,869
Is that true?
yes.
310
00:15:38,285 --> 00:15:40,477
Do you think it's possible
that a conscious person
311
00:15:41,061 --> 00:15:42,173
could be experiencing pain,
312
00:15:43,261 --> 00:15:45,381
but because of his advanced
mental deterioration,
313
00:15:46,052 --> 00:15:48,703
that he be incapable
of communicating that pain?
314
00:15:49,388 --> 00:15:50,228
I suppose it's possible.
315
00:15:50,965 --> 00:15:53,397
So if a doctor, say,
wanted to make such a finding,
316
00:15:53,853 --> 00:15:56,285
let's say the patient was
his own father, say,
317
00:15:56,709 --> 00:15:59,645
he might be able to find pain,
prescribe the morphine,
318
00:16:00,037 --> 00:16:02,815
and nobody could state to
a reasonable medical certainty
319
00:16:03,711 --> 00:16:04,471
that he was wrong.
320
00:16:05,895 --> 00:16:07,343
I'd like to think
that my medical ethics
321
00:16:07,783 --> 00:16:08,751
would prevent me
from doing that.
322
00:16:09,167 --> 00:16:10,399
I see. So in your opinion,
323
00:16:10,743 --> 00:16:12,287
the medically ethical thing
to do here
324
00:16:12,886 --> 00:16:14,172
is let this person's brain
continue to rot
325
00:16:14,492 --> 00:16:16,773
until all his vital organs
shut down,
326
00:16:17,188 --> 00:16:19,493
he shrinks to 85 pounds,
his esophagus closes up
327
00:16:19,941 --> 00:16:21,670
so he can no longer eat,
328
00:16:22,070 --> 00:16:22,839
and he begins to suffer
grand mal seizures?
329
00:16:23,142 --> 00:16:25,479
These are the ethics you bring
to this courtrm today.
330
00:16:37,326 --> 00:16:38,471
It's a sad day indeed
331
00:16:39,146 --> 00:16:40,871
when the science of love
is chemically manipulated.
332
00:16:41,239 --> 00:16:43,703
Men ply women with
a little wine on occasions.
333
00:16:44,159 --> 00:16:46,638
Women have been known to
throw on intoxicating perfumes.
334
00:16:47,095 --> 00:16:48,880
My client spritzed himself
with a little cologne.
335
00:16:49,671 --> 00:16:52,648
Laced with a hormone,
ms. Lloyd,
336
00:16:55,067 --> 00:16:57,224
one naturally released
in the body during orgasm.
337
00:16:57,824 --> 00:16:58,264
It influences
one's ability to bond.
338
00:16:58,633 --> 00:16:59,752
Doctors call it
the nesting hormone.
339
00:17:00,184 --> 00:17:01,849
It's a far cry
from perfume.
340
00:17:02,424 --> 00:17:04,947
But as I understand
my client, he used it as much
341
00:17:05,441 --> 00:17:06,922
to relax himself--
That doesn't make it right.
342
00:17:07,457 --> 00:17:09,025
Jerry never meant
to victimize her.
343
00:17:09,593 --> 00:17:10,353
May I respond?
Certainly.
344
00:17:14,384 --> 00:17:16,337
I regarded you
as profoundly honest,
345
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,050
and to discover
that you were deceitful
346
00:17:20,416 --> 00:17:21,593
in the most personal
of ways...
347
00:17:24,377 --> 00:17:27,257
It's not simply that I-I don't
trust you any longer, jerry.
348
00:17:29,184 --> 00:17:30,456
How am I
supposed to trust myself...
349
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:34,104
To bond with anybody?
350
00:17:47,336 --> 00:17:48,354
Mr. Engels,
how are you employed?
351
00:17:48,888 --> 00:17:51,784
Uh, I was hired as a physicist
by the town of nantucket.
352
00:17:52,425 --> 00:17:53,185
Hired for what?
353
00:17:53,656 --> 00:17:54,896
Uh, to design
an atomic bomb for them.
354
00:17:55,233 --> 00:17:57,121
And are you capable
of doing that? Quite.
355
00:17:57,977 --> 00:18:00,329
Could you describe, generally,
how one makes them?
356
00:18:00,769 --> 00:18:02,673
Uh, yes. Uh, well, you have
your fissionable material,
357
00:18:03,001 --> 00:18:04,680
say plutonium, in the middle,
358
00:18:05,024 --> 00:18:06,792
encapsulated in a metallic
sphere lined with beryllium,
359
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:08,713
which promotes
the fission process.
360
00:18:09,345 --> 00:18:11,529
Uh, outside that
are shaped charges of dynamite.
361
00:18:11,896 --> 00:18:14,713
Now when the dynamite explodes,
the plutonium compressed.
362
00:18:15,153 --> 00:18:17,281
It reaches critical mass,
it fissions,
363
00:18:17,856 --> 00:18:18,849
and boom!
364
00:18:19,584 --> 00:18:22,850
Sorry. I...
Always get a kick out of...
365
00:18:23,409 --> 00:18:24,528
Doing that.
366
00:18:24,865 --> 00:18:26,714
Um, I guess the question is,
uh, what's to stop anybody
367
00:18:27,329 --> 00:18:28,825
from having a bomb
if it's this simple?
368
00:18:29,220 --> 00:18:29,873
Uh, well, money.
369
00:18:30,168 --> 00:18:31,064
The real difficulty
is in obtaing
370
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,576
the fissionable material, say
plutonium or enriched uranium.
371
00:18:34,096 --> 00:18:35,976
But once you have that,
the rest is easy.
372
00:18:36,432 --> 00:18:39,456
And this bomb would actually
be viable? Oh, yeah. Yes.
373
00:18:40,121 --> 00:18:43,618
Um, you see, the thing about
the nuclear bomb, your honor,
374
00:18:44,081 --> 00:18:45,345
is that it doesn't
have tbe made perfect.
375
00:18:46,041 --> 00:18:47,337
Um, the one they dropped
on hiroshima
376
00:18:47,689 --> 00:18:49,162
had 60 kilos
of enriched uranium in it,
377
00:18:49,515 --> 00:18:53,002
and only about 1% of that actually
fissioned. So over 90% of that bomb was a dud?
378
00:18:53,402 --> 00:18:54,002
yes.
379
00:18:54,562 --> 00:18:56,868
But I mean,
as far as duds go-- boom!
380
00:18:57,323 --> 00:18:58,058
Sorry.
381
00:18:59,907 --> 00:19:02,067
boom
boom goes london
382
00:19:02,435 --> 00:19:04,228
and boom paris
boom
383
00:19:04,810 --> 00:19:07,692
more room for you and
more room for me ooh
384
00:19:08,252 --> 00:19:10,685
and every city
385
00:19:11,138 --> 00:19:12,946
the whole world round
386
00:19:13,370 --> 00:19:14,715
will just be another
387
00:19:15,132 --> 00:19:16,787
american town
388
00:19:17,571 --> 00:19:19,435
oh, they all hate us anyhow
389
00:19:20,059 --> 00:19:21,611
they all hate us anyhow how
390
00:19:21,979 --> 00:19:23,754
so let's drop the big one
391
00:19:25,179 --> 00:19:26,643
now
392
00:19:29,698 --> 00:19:33,365
so, bill, what's going on?
What do you mean?
393
00:19:34,099 --> 00:19:35,379
What I mean is,
this is a ridiculous case.
394
00:19:35,819 --> 00:19:37,875
I've never known you
to be a ridiculous man.
395
00:19:38,283 --> 00:19:40,021
So why don't you tell me
what you're up to?
396
00:19:40,907 --> 00:19:43,052
Do you realize
what a target nantucket is?
397
00:19:43,538 --> 00:19:45,451
When you think of
the iconic staples of america
398
00:19:45,971 --> 00:19:48,797
that the world so hates-- rich
people, wall street gluttons,
399
00:19:49,138 --> 00:19:50,890
evil politicians,
hollywood producers--
400
00:19:51,299 --> 00:19:53,092
They all have homes
on nantucket.
401
00:19:53,891 --> 00:19:54,531
It's one-stop shopping.
402
00:19:55,075 --> 00:19:56,923
Bill... What are you up to?
403
00:20:00,842 --> 00:20:02,690
Look, I know this lawsuit
is absurd.
404
00:20:03,138 --> 00:20:05,221
Now we can't possibly win it. Ah. But?
405
00:20:06,394 --> 00:20:08,339
But we have a presidential
election coming up,
406
00:20:09,083 --> 00:20:11,035
and all we hear about
is the war, the economy,
407
00:20:11,427 --> 00:20:13,963
the mortgage crisis,
the recession.
408
00:20:14,451 --> 00:20:16,212
Nuclear proliferation has been
pushed right off the table.
409
00:20:16,754 --> 00:20:19,109
None of the candidates are talking
about it. Nuclear proleration.
410
00:20:19,725 --> 00:20:21,838
Do you realize bush tore up
the arms treaty?
411
00:20:22,253 --> 00:20:23,773
We offered to sell
nuclear technology
412
00:20:24,485 --> 00:20:26,791
to civilians in india--
Civilians, for god sakes--
413
00:20:27,237 --> 00:20:29,652
And nobody's even discussing
this. So this lawsuit...
414
00:20:30,020 --> 00:20:31,975
It's a way to put the topic
back on the table.
415
00:20:32,565 --> 00:20:34,556
It's not just terrorists
we need to fear, carl.
416
00:20:34,941 --> 00:20:35,652
It's countries, too.
417
00:20:36,165 --> 00:20:38,085
So, yeah,
you go get 'em, counselor.
418
00:20:40,181 --> 00:20:41,173
You go get me mybomb.
419
00:20:58,201 --> 00:20:58,761
hey.
420
00:20:59,433 --> 00:20:59,881
hey.
421
00:21:02,713 --> 00:21:05,224
So... How was your day?
422
00:21:06,704 --> 00:21:08,113
Oh... Same old--
423
00:21:08,561 --> 00:21:10,481
Went to court,
trying to kill my father.
424
00:21:10,841 --> 00:21:11,448
you?
425
00:21:11,881 --> 00:21:13,073
Trying to get nantucket
a bomb.
426
00:21:13,665 --> 00:21:14,985
Oh, are we stuck in a rut?
427
00:21:18,513 --> 00:21:19,721
Is there anything I can do?
428
00:21:20,185 --> 00:21:23,470
It's funny, you turn on tv
and see...
429
00:21:25,076 --> 00:21:26,869
Advertisement
after advertisement
430
00:21:27,453 --> 00:21:29,302
about how to have
a better life.
431
00:21:33,556 --> 00:21:35,381
Why can't we help people
to have a better death?
432
00:21:36,028 --> 00:21:38,405
Shirley, you and I know
the only thing more powerful
433
00:21:38,828 --> 00:21:42,339
than the religious right
or, well, god in this country--
434
00:21:43,627 --> 00:21:44,907
The pharmaceutical companies.
435
00:21:46,050 --> 00:21:47,762
The best chance
at physician-assisted suicide
436
00:21:48,338 --> 00:21:52,296
is for some big drug company
to invent the euthanasia pill.
437
00:21:53,809 --> 00:21:55,288
They'll lobby congress.
438
00:21:55,705 --> 00:21:56,064
Done deal.
439
00:21:58,585 --> 00:21:59,648
I Miss you.
440
00:22:01,449 --> 00:22:02,673
I Miss you, too.
441
00:22:05,041 --> 00:22:06,121
Should we get back together?
442
00:22:06,841 --> 00:22:09,466
At least until, you know,
dad's dead.
443
00:22:10,129 --> 00:22:11,754
I could help you
through the rough times.
444
00:22:13,249 --> 00:22:15,040
I don't know any man
445
00:22:15,456 --> 00:22:16,865
who is more adorable
with his cynicism.
446
00:22:19,681 --> 00:22:22,082
Anything you need,
i'm here.
447
00:22:23,921 --> 00:22:24,641
Thank you, carl.
448
00:22:27,169 --> 00:22:30,928
I think for now what I need
is just to sit here alone.
449
00:22:56,198 --> 00:22:58,048
You just flat-out refused
to work on the case?
450
00:22:58,638 --> 00:22:59,310
yes.
451
00:22:59,774 --> 00:23:01,301
And heidn't fire you?
He likes me.
452
00:23:01,807 --> 00:23:04,253
Whenever I'm around him,
I slap on a little oxytocin,
453
00:23:04,821 --> 00:23:06,094
and he's like putty.
Oh, very funny.
454
00:23:06,614 --> 00:23:08,334
Did you slap on a dress
while you're at it,
455
00:23:08,686 --> 00:23:09,966
sing him a song, poop-head?!
Jerry.
456
00:23:10,350 --> 00:23:11,807
Oh, what?!
Sorry.
457
00:23:14,694 --> 00:23:16,615
Listen, I've read up
on the science of this hormone.
458
00:23:16,982 --> 00:23:19,029
While there's no evidence
it can make one fall in love,
459
00:23:19,381 --> 00:23:20,773
it evidently
can facilitate bonding.
460
00:23:21,110 --> 00:23:22,310
Some trapists
actually prescribe it
461
00:23:22,654 --> 00:23:23,806
for relationship maintenance.
462
00:23:24,238 --> 00:23:26,871
Bottom line-- she very much does
have a case, I'm sorry to say.
463
00:23:27,285 --> 00:23:28,766
If this case is to go away,
464
00:23:29,094 --> 00:23:30,358
I think you'll have to
accomplish it.
465
00:23:30,942 --> 00:23:32,967
You need to talk directly to her
and hope she's persuaded.
466
00:23:33,998 --> 00:23:36,414
Okay. I'll... I've set up
another meeting for 3:00.
467
00:23:36,781 --> 00:23:40,039
Be candid,
speak from the heart, humbly,
468
00:23:40,477 --> 00:23:42,024
do not snivel,
and no matterwhathappens,
469
00:23:42,416 --> 00:23:44,465
you must refrain
from calling her a poop-head.
470
00:23:45,256 --> 00:23:46,128
Can you manage that?
471
00:23:48,064 --> 00:23:50,143
This is not a new debate,
but the fact
472
00:23:50,488 --> 00:23:53,153
that we still continue to
have the debate in this country
473
00:23:53,591 --> 00:23:55,080
baffles me.
474
00:23:55,416 --> 00:23:57,784
People are helped to die
every single day
475
00:23:58,312 --> 00:24:01,256
in virtually every hospital,
in hospices, at home,
476
00:24:01,656 --> 00:24:04,057
all under the "wink wink"
of pain management.
477
00:24:04,552 --> 00:24:06,111
And yet
every time someone suggests
478
00:24:06,439 --> 00:24:08,017
bringing this practice
out of the closet,
479
00:24:08,399 --> 00:24:11,073
opponents leap up, screaming
there's potential for abuse,
480
00:24:11,527 --> 00:24:14,050
we'll end up killing people
who want to live.
481
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:15,016
Come on.
482
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:16,816
If there's potential for abuse,
483
00:24:17,208 --> 00:24:18,056
then by all means,
let's regulate it.
484
00:24:18,497 --> 00:24:20,384
Have an administrative hearing
or go to court
485
00:24:20,711 --> 00:24:21,584
like we're doing now,
486
00:24:21,855 --> 00:24:23,023
but there's
much more potential for abuse
487
00:24:23,399 --> 00:24:25,220
when we do it secretly. No, no, no. Now
there's a good reason for the secrecy.
488
00:24:25,571 --> 00:24:27,864
The last thing we want to do
489
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,679
is to cultivate
a culture of suicide.
490
00:24:31,714 --> 00:24:34,281
Almost 20% of today's teenagers
contemplate
491
00:24:34,740 --> 00:24:35,739
taking their own lives
at one time or another.
492
00:24:36,194 --> 00:24:37,378
A recent 5-year analysis
493
00:24:37,842 --> 00:24:40,787
showed a 20% rise in suicides
among middle-aged people.
494
00:24:41,298 --> 00:24:44,244
It's becoming epidemic.
Not the time to lift the stigma.
495
00:24:44,737 --> 00:24:47,235
We would not be sending the message
that-- oh, yes, we would, Mr. Shore.
496
00:24:47,713 --> 00:24:48,563
You make it permissible,
497
00:24:48,985 --> 00:24:50,659
that's one step closer
to making it acceptable.
498
00:24:51,306 --> 00:24:52,834
And the real danger
is that elderly parents
499
00:24:53,217 --> 00:24:55,284
start thinking it's maybe their
duty to spare their children
500
00:24:55,690 --> 00:24:58,410
so they won't drain their
finances. This would not be th case.
501
00:24:58,794 --> 00:25:00,882
It could be tomorrow's case. Which is
why we take it on a case by case basis,
502
00:25:01,426 --> 00:25:03,530
addressing all the concerns
you raised.
503
00:25:04,042 --> 00:25:07,025
But why must we have
an absolute blanket ban
504
00:25:07,370 --> 00:25:08,346
when it causes
505
00:25:08,986 --> 00:25:11,442
such immeasurable suffering
for so many?
506
00:25:11,864 --> 00:25:13,161
Because it's not
potential for abuse
507
00:25:13,688 --> 00:25:14,937
that's really in play,
counsel.
508
00:25:15,512 --> 00:25:17,181
Let's all admit that.
It's politics.
509
00:25:17,765 --> 00:25:20,744
And the legislature gets to make
the laws, not the judges.
510
00:25:21,142 --> 00:25:23,270
But it's for the judges
to safeguard the constitution.
511
00:25:23,958 --> 00:25:26,766
Included therein is our
fundamental right to privacy.
512
00:25:27,654 --> 00:25:29,734
Can there be anything
more private, more personal
513
00:25:30,246 --> 00:25:33,557
than the destiny
of one's own body, one's life?
514
00:25:34,021 --> 00:25:36,950
It's also for the judges
to step in and be huma
515
00:25:37,486 --> 00:25:39,943
when a gutless,
politically expedient congress
516
00:25:40,447 --> 00:25:41,262
refuses to do so.
517
00:25:41,814 --> 00:25:43,799
My god, we put dogs to sleep
518
00:25:44,206 --> 00:25:45,742
to spare
their needless suffering.
519
00:25:46,182 --> 00:25:48,742
Why don't we extend the same
compassion to human beings?
520
00:25:49,557 --> 00:25:51,215
This man is terminal.
He will die.
521
00:25:51,999 --> 00:25:53,784
He fears people,
all people.
522
00:25:54,232 --> 00:25:55,224
He can't control his bowels.
523
00:25:55,568 --> 00:25:57,488
He has
an utter lack of cognizance
524
00:25:57,928 --> 00:26:00,592
and an inability to have
any meaningful exchange,
525
00:26:00,952 --> 00:26:01,713
or even contact.
526
00:26:02,175 --> 00:26:04,023
Would you choose to live
like that? Would anybody?
527
00:26:04,352 --> 00:26:06,913
To allow assisted suicide
is to say that life itself
528
00:26:07,263 --> 00:26:09,384
has no intrinsic value,
no sanctity.
529
00:26:09,888 --> 00:26:12,688
Oh, baloney. I'm saying
walter schmidt's life,
530
00:26:13,056 --> 00:26:15,272
in its current state,
has no intrinsic value.
531
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,584
He lies in his bed
with no apparent capacity
532
00:26:19,159 --> 00:26:20,281
to discern or think.
533
00:26:20,639 --> 00:26:23,320
His days have devolved
into a horrible cycle
534
00:26:23,728 --> 00:26:24,871
of soiling his bedsheets
535
00:26:25,319 --> 00:26:26,929
and screaming incoherently
536
00:26:27,248 --> 00:26:29,032
at the very touch of the nurse
who cleans him.
537
00:26:29,488 --> 00:26:31,232
His life is a misery.
I'm sorry.
538
00:26:31,536 --> 00:26:33,144
There is no sanctity
in that.
539
00:26:33,832 --> 00:26:34,624
I don't care what...
540
00:26:47,216 --> 00:26:47,656
I'm sorry.
541
00:26:52,856 --> 00:26:54,951
My, uh, best friend
has alzheimer's,
542
00:26:56,007 --> 00:26:57,591
in the very early stages.
543
00:26:58,057 --> 00:26:58,776
It hasn't...
544
00:27:01,376 --> 00:27:04,529
He is a...
Grand lover of life,
545
00:27:05,376 --> 00:27:06,408
and will be for some time.
546
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,025
I believe even when his mind
starts to really go,
547
00:27:10,968 --> 00:27:12,063
he'll still fish
548
00:27:12,568 --> 00:27:14,738
and he'll laugh and love.
549
00:27:16,952 --> 00:27:19,632
And as it progresses,
he'll still nt to live
550
00:27:20,079 --> 00:27:21,640
because there'll be
value for him,
551
00:27:22,288 --> 00:27:26,802
in a friendship,
in a cigar, in...
552
00:27:28,688 --> 00:27:31,937
Truth is, I don't think
he'll ever come to me and say,
553
00:27:32,376 --> 00:27:34,215
"this is the day
I want to die."
554
00:27:34,672 --> 00:27:36,080
But the day is coming,
555
00:27:36,728 --> 00:27:38,632
and he won't know it.
556
00:27:43,784 --> 00:27:44,632
This is perhaps the...
557
00:27:46,783 --> 00:27:49,039
The most insidious thing
about alzheimer's, it...
558
00:27:51,167 --> 00:27:51,935
But you see...
559
00:27:53,232 --> 00:27:56,761
He trustsmeto know
when that day has arrived.
560
00:27:57,136 --> 00:27:57,904
He trusts me
561
00:27:58,864 --> 00:28:00,040
to safeguard his dignity,
562
00:28:01,008 --> 00:28:02,200
his legacy
563
00:28:02,992 --> 00:28:04,383
and self-respect.
564
00:28:06,039 --> 00:28:07,215
He trustsmeto prevent his end
565
00:28:08,176 --> 00:28:11,010
from becoming a mindless
piece of mush.
566
00:28:12,496 --> 00:28:12,976
And I will.
567
00:28:15,120 --> 00:28:18,282
It will be
an unbearably painful...
568
00:28:23,215 --> 00:28:25,239
Thing for me.
569
00:28:26,135 --> 00:28:28,984
But I will do it
because I love him.
570
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:30,399
I will end his suffering
571
00:28:30,888 --> 00:28:34,480
because it's the only decent,
humane and loving thing
572
00:28:34,832 --> 00:28:35,896
a person can do.
573
00:28:43,887 --> 00:28:46,927
Ms. Schmidt is here today
because she loves her father.
574
00:28:48,689 --> 00:28:51,424
She's asking you
to show mercy
575
00:28:52,048 --> 00:28:54,200
that the law refuseso.
576
00:28:54,712 --> 00:28:57,320
She is asking you
to play god.
577
00:28:57,663 --> 00:29:00,816
Your honor, whatever one's
belief in god,
578
00:29:01,295 --> 00:29:03,103
I know we can all agree,
579
00:29:03,575 --> 00:29:05,672
some lives are taken
far too early,
580
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:07,064
and others...
581
00:29:07,816 --> 00:29:10,412
Far too late.
582
00:29:32,245 --> 00:29:33,445
I really don't like
playing god.
583
00:29:34,085 --> 00:29:36,070
I do believe in god,
by the way.
584
00:29:36,653 --> 00:29:40,007
I believe there's a sanctity
to every human life.
585
00:29:40,638 --> 00:29:43,158
The idea that doctors
and relatives
586
00:29:43,622 --> 00:29:44,734
get to start weighing
the quality of a given life
587
00:29:45,582 --> 00:29:48,304
to decide who shall live,
who shall die,
588
00:29:49,822 --> 00:29:50,687
it horrifies me.
589
00:29:51,998 --> 00:29:55,414
And I see
tremendous potential for abuse.
590
00:29:57,974 --> 00:30:00,448
But there is no suggestion
of such abuse here.
591
00:30:01,007 --> 00:30:02,878
Mr. Schmidt is terminal.
592
00:30:03,375 --> 00:30:06,072
His condition is irreversible.
He is suffering.
593
00:30:07,494 --> 00:30:10,414
The law allows patients
to refuse medical treatment
594
00:30:11,239 --> 00:30:12,598
even when to do so means death.
595
00:30:13,358 --> 00:30:16,767
It allows the disconnection of
nutrition and hydration tubes,
596
00:30:17,182 --> 00:30:19,735
thereby basically
starng the person to death.
597
00:30:21,686 --> 00:30:23,703
What rational distinction
can there be
598
00:30:24,158 --> 00:30:27,280
for not allowing
a more humane method?
599
00:30:29,862 --> 00:30:31,711
Plaintiff's motion is granted.
600
00:30:34,142 --> 00:30:37,214
Ms. Schmidt,
my prayers are with you.
601
00:30:39,343 --> 00:30:40,223
Adjourned.
602
00:30:56,335 --> 00:30:57,095
First, let me say,
603
00:30:58,023 --> 00:31:00,374
I have thought deeply
about my actions,
604
00:31:00,975 --> 00:31:03,840
for which, I conclude,
I have no excuse.
605
00:31:04,598 --> 00:31:06,782
Accordingly, I will not
seek to proffer any.
606
00:31:07,598 --> 00:31:08,534
However...
607
00:31:11,270 --> 00:31:12,382
The thing
about love, sweetheart,
608
00:31:12,766 --> 00:31:14,335
is, come on, we all
throw up fronts and...
609
00:31:23,182 --> 00:31:23,910
The thing about love is,
610
00:31:24,942 --> 00:31:27,120
people often try
to remake themselves
611
00:31:28,262 --> 00:31:29,167
in their lover's eyes,
612
00:31:29,798 --> 00:31:31,063
especially
in new relationships.
613
00:31:32,446 --> 00:31:34,446
We want to present
614
00:31:35,895 --> 00:31:37,678
the most flattering version
of ourselves.
615
00:31:38,726 --> 00:31:40,422
We want to seem smarter,
funnier.
616
00:31:41,150 --> 00:31:44,302
We... Pretend to be
something we're not.
617
00:31:46,647 --> 00:31:47,478
i...
618
00:31:48,830 --> 00:31:51,703
I wanted you to think
I was...
619
00:31:53,453 --> 00:31:54,870
More confident
than I am.
620
00:31:56,110 --> 00:31:57,646
I wanted you
to feel safer with me
621
00:31:57,990 --> 00:31:59,270
than women typically feel.
622
00:31:59,718 --> 00:32:00,990
I wanted to have an edge,
623
00:32:02,431 --> 00:32:04,582
which...
Clearly, I do not enjoy.
624
00:32:10,551 --> 00:32:11,798
You are a beautiful woman.
625
00:32:15,086 --> 00:32:17,128
I am an odd man
626
00:32:17,710 --> 00:32:19,414
who stutters, purrs,
627
00:32:19,854 --> 00:32:20,935
coos, squeaks...
628
00:32:22,822 --> 00:32:24,999
With all the self-confidence
of a mayfly.
629
00:32:27,566 --> 00:32:29,838
But like it or not, babe,
this is what you get, and...
630
00:32:34,191 --> 00:32:35,528
All of this is to say...
631
00:32:37,926 --> 00:32:40,790
I did a remarkably stupid,
632
00:32:42,302 --> 00:32:43,447
unforgivable thing...
633
00:32:44,662 --> 00:32:46,750
Because I have fallen
in love with you,
634
00:32:48,198 --> 00:32:51,008
and I am desperate for you
to fall in love with me.
635
00:32:57,182 --> 00:32:59,311
Your honor, we're trying
to build a world
636
00:32:59,694 --> 00:33:03,254
where we have fewer weapons as opposed
to more. Oh, that's simply not true.
637
00:33:03,710 --> 00:33:07,280
Bush tore up the arms control treaties. I am
not gonna get into a foreign policy debate.
638
00:33:07,686 --> 00:33:09,079
Suffice it to say
that nuclear bombs
639
00:33:09,543 --> 00:33:10,721
belong in the hands of stable,
sovereign, res-- stable?
640
00:33:11,184 --> 00:33:14,418
Not-- iran may have
a bomb, for god sakes.
641
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:15,640
North korea has one.
642
00:33:16,024 --> 00:33:18,920
It is the united states
government's job to protect us,
643
00:33:19,336 --> 00:33:21,025
not some
tony resort island.
644
00:33:21,368 --> 00:33:22,658
Our federal government
is broken.
645
00:33:23,176 --> 00:33:25,592
We have illegal aliens
streaming across the border.
646
00:33:25,944 --> 00:33:27,111
Our military
is bogged down in iraq,
647
00:33:27,448 --> 00:33:29,312
maybe for a hundred years
if the supreme court
648
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:30,545
gets to pick
our president again.
649
00:33:31,225 --> 00:33:32,569
The national guard
is depleted.
650
00:33:32,928 --> 00:33:34,129
We can't protect a levee in
new orleans against a hurricane.
651
00:33:37,272 --> 00:33:38,688
Andcomeon,
everybody has a bomb--
652
00:33:39,153 --> 00:33:40,552
France, china, russia...
653
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,195
Israel...
Iran,
654
00:33:42,594 --> 00:33:46,034
with that whack job
"i'm in a dinner jacket."
655
00:33:46,378 --> 00:33:48,907
Why not nantucket? They're far
more reasonable, more stable.
656
00:33:49,266 --> 00:33:50,850
And hey, how about this?
They're on our side.
657
00:33:51,458 --> 00:33:52,546
Why can't they have a bomb?
658
00:33:53,026 --> 00:33:53,986
Okay, I've heard enough.
659
00:33:55,394 --> 00:33:56,195
Mr. Sack,
660
00:33:56,596 --> 00:33:58,458
you can't expect me
to grant your request here.
661
00:33:58,898 --> 00:33:59,642
Sure I can. Watch.
662
00:34:03,298 --> 00:34:05,122
I had my clerk
do a little research.
663
00:34:05,586 --> 00:34:07,490
It wasn't pretty.
You're right.
664
00:34:07,914 --> 00:34:10,987
Our current president tore up
the arms control treaties.
665
00:34:11,586 --> 00:34:13,963
A lot of countries
seem to be getting the bomb now.
666
00:34:15,178 --> 00:34:16,715
And you left out pakistan,
667
00:34:17,179 --> 00:34:19,810
which is perhaps
the scariest of all.
668
00:34:20,913 --> 00:34:21,850
They might be on our side today,
669
00:34:22,474 --> 00:34:25,665
but it's not a stretch
to see islamic extremists
670
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:27,625
taking over there,
and then what?
671
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,538
Their nuclear arsenal
is massive.
672
00:34:31,401 --> 00:34:33,650
This in the country
where bin laden may be hiding.
673
00:34:34,224 --> 00:34:35,400
And we're supposed to feel safe
674
00:34:35,825 --> 00:34:37,610
with whatever rogue government
is in place?
675
00:34:38,456 --> 00:34:39,040
My god.
676
00:34:42,050 --> 00:34:43,272
I don't have the answer.
677
00:34:45,536 --> 00:34:47,690
But in my gut,
I simply cannot believe
678
00:34:48,177 --> 00:34:53,956
it lies in giving
an atomic bomb to nantucket.
679
00:34:54,516 --> 00:34:57,437
Plaintiff's motion is denied.
We're adjourned.
680
00:34:58,045 --> 00:34:59,588
First we got the bomb
and that was good
681
00:34:59,989 --> 00:35:01,852
'cause we love peace
and motherhood
682
00:35:02,268 --> 00:35:03,948
then russia got the bomb,
but that's okay
683
00:35:04,380 --> 00:35:06,428
'cause the balance of power's
maintained that way
684
00:35:06,828 --> 00:35:07,476
who's next?
685
00:35:08,084 --> 00:35:08,868
who?
686
00:35:11,333 --> 00:35:13,245
Oh, france got the bomb,
but don't you grieve
687
00:35:13,772 --> 00:35:15,541
'cause they're on our side,
I believe
688
00:35:16,133 --> 00:35:18,036
china got the bomb,
but have no fears
689
00:35:18,349 --> 00:35:19,956
they can't wipe us out
for at least five years...
690
00:35:20,684 --> 00:35:22,756
Oh. Hello.
Welcome. Hello.
691
00:35:23,148 --> 00:35:24,020
I got your message.
692
00:35:25,061 --> 00:35:26,207
I'm here.
693
00:35:28,055 --> 00:35:28,663
Dana, I...
694
00:35:32,039 --> 00:35:33,800
I don't know
how else to convey
695
00:35:34,175 --> 00:35:35,199
how sorry I am--
696
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:36,936
Jerry...
697
00:35:37,328 --> 00:35:38,304
I'm sorry as well.
698
00:35:41,231 --> 00:35:43,178
As hurt and as betrayed
as I felt...
699
00:35:44,927 --> 00:35:45,655
Suing you?
700
00:35:46,895 --> 00:35:47,607
That was wrong.
701
00:35:49,103 --> 00:35:50,624
I believe you are the man
I thought you were.
702
00:35:52,392 --> 00:35:53,208
Just...
703
00:35:54,783 --> 00:35:56,848
Well, maybe
a little more vulnerable
704
00:35:57,591 --> 00:35:58,232
than I realized.
705
00:36:03,583 --> 00:36:04,807
I... Is there...
706
00:36:06,167 --> 00:36:07,655
Do we have a chance
of getting back?
707
00:36:08,207 --> 00:36:10,897
I... Would like that,
actually.
708
00:36:11,799 --> 00:36:12,736
I-- I'd really like that.
709
00:36:44,055 --> 00:36:44,816
How's he doing?
710
00:36:45,863 --> 00:36:48,040
We started the drip
three hours ago.
711
00:36:51,488 --> 00:36:55,327
His breath
has slowed almost to...
712
00:37:01,007 --> 00:37:03,513
He was quite a man.
713
00:37:08,784 --> 00:37:10,576
Strong, freewheeling...
714
00:37:11,984 --> 00:37:12,991
A lawyer's lawyer.
715
00:37:14,495 --> 00:37:15,535
And a daughter's father.
716
00:37:22,199 --> 00:37:24,711
I've known this day was coming
for some time.
717
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,520
I... I even prayed for it,
718
00:37:28,952 --> 00:37:29,879
knowing it would be a blessing,
719
00:37:30,215 --> 00:37:31,031
but...
720
00:37:33,111 --> 00:37:34,120
No matter...
721
00:37:38,448 --> 00:37:39,167
I don't...
722
00:37:41,736 --> 00:37:44,689
I don't think
anyone's ever prepared
723
00:37:45,112 --> 00:37:46,609
for a parent to die,
724
00:37:49,263 --> 00:37:50,143
no matter what you think.
725
00:37:55,863 --> 00:37:56,272
yes.
726
00:37:56,944 --> 00:37:57,535
Alan, thank u.
727
00:38:04,951 --> 00:38:06,319
With all your nonsense, I...
728
00:38:08,751 --> 00:38:11,377
I fully expect
to have to fire you one day.
729
00:38:14,271 --> 00:38:16,248
I just want you to know,
when that day comes,
730
00:38:17,335 --> 00:38:19,186
it'll be harder for me.
731
00:38:21,968 --> 00:38:22,911
yep.
732
00:39:04,975 --> 00:39:05,511
Where is she now?
733
00:39:10,248 --> 00:39:10,888
Carl's with her.
734
00:39:15,607 --> 00:39:17,535
I saw my future, alan,
735
00:39:18,439 --> 00:39:19,384
when I went to see him.
736
00:39:20,744 --> 00:39:22,288
I saw what lies ahead
for me.
737
00:39:24,456 --> 00:39:25,888
That's not
what lies ahead for you.
738
00:39:27,208 --> 00:39:28,128
Like the doctor said,
739
00:39:28,552 --> 00:39:30,280
you smoke, you drink,
you play with loaded firearms.
740
00:39:31,152 --> 00:39:32,623
You'll go before
the mad cow can get you.
741
00:39:37,496 --> 00:39:39,487
I was in the courtroom today.
I heard your closing.
742
00:39:49,791 --> 00:39:50,663
When the day comes...
743
00:39:52,247 --> 00:39:52,951
Ifit comes...
744
00:39:56,367 --> 00:39:58,431
We should go to oregon,
where it's legal.
745
00:40:02,472 --> 00:40:06,101
They got some
great steelhead runs in oregon.
746
00:40:07,051 --> 00:40:09,964
We could fish
the mighty rogue.
747
00:40:11,155 --> 00:40:12,665
It's only fitting.
748
00:40:13,073 --> 00:40:14,777
I mean,
I am the mighty rogue
749
00:40:15,449 --> 00:40:16,217
when you think about it.
750
00:40:18,121 --> 00:40:18,681
Yes, you are.
751
00:40:20,513 --> 00:40:21,674
What a way to check out--
752
00:40:22,601 --> 00:40:24,106
A scotch in one hand,
a steelhead in the other.
753
00:40:24,905 --> 00:40:25,666
And in your hands...
754
00:40:28,002 --> 00:40:28,938
Would be me.
755
00:40:31,065 --> 00:40:32,786
If I could make
that deal with god,
756
00:40:33,138 --> 00:40:33,642
i'd do so right now.
757
00:40:34,770 --> 00:40:36,810
That's only because if you
could delay death
758
00:40:37,522 --> 00:40:39,106
until you were finally able
to catch a steelhead,
759
00:40:39,586 --> 00:40:41,066
you'd out live us all.
760
00:40:41,497 --> 00:40:43,010
I'm sorry...
But you're a lousy fisherman.
761
00:40:44,434 --> 00:40:45,666
It needed to be said.
762
00:40:46,482 --> 00:40:47,258
I know what you're doing.
763
00:40:47,618 --> 00:40:48,362
You're trying
to change the subject.
764
00:40:49,218 --> 00:40:50,698
Nny, if you were
in that courtroom,
765
00:40:51,034 --> 00:40:52,858
you saw how difficult it was
for me to think of you dying.
766
00:40:53,306 --> 00:40:56,404
I'd just like to enjoy my scotch
and not have to think of it now.
767
00:40:57,977 --> 00:41:00,346
So just... Sit there
with your cigar,
768
00:41:01,058 --> 00:41:02,810
if you don't mind,
and blow smoke.
769
00:41:03,282 --> 00:41:05,330
It's what you're best at.
Fine.
770
00:41:08,219 --> 00:41:08,786
Fine.
771
00:41:09,554 --> 00:41:10,714
You don't have to be
so huffy about it.
772
00:41:13,969 --> 00:41:14,506
I had a day.
773
00:41:21,082 --> 00:41:22,034
Sleepover?
774
00:41:24,556 --> 00:41:25,011
Fine.
9999
