TOMMY: I thought we were
going to their house.

I told you Tommy,
this is a pit stop.

How many times did I say we have
to make a pit stop first?

You didn'’t say at a morgue.

Ms. Korn, I'’m Dr. Peck.

I'’m not just
a medical examiner,

I'’m also a...Yeah, just let me see him.

My condolences for...Just, uh...

let me see the body, will ya?

That'’s him.

You'’re sure?Yeah.

How did he die?

PECK: It appears to have
been a coronary.

He'’d been [clears throat]
dead for three days

before he was discovered.

Where was he?

I'’m told at The Grover Motel,
I'’m not certain...

That rundown old fleabag
on Jackson?

It may very well have been
an exertion heart attack.

I found traces of semen the...Yeah, uh, over-sharing.

Who was he, Harry?

You said it was three days
before anybody found him?

Yes, ma'’am.

Well, you'’re with
God now, Arthur.

If he'’ll have anything
to do with you.

Who is he, Harry?

My first husband, Arthur Korn.

MAN: They hired your girlfriend,
which is why I want to hire you.

Okay, I don'’t really
have a girlfriend...Mr. Branch, please.

This is important.
I need my job.Okay.

And why exactly
did they fire you?

That'’s why.

MAN: Thanks for coming.

The reason I asked you to meet
me here is I wanted...

This doesn'’t just affect me.

It affects my whole family:

m-my wife, my children...

Ms. Korn...

I'’ve been out of work
for almost eight months now.

I have another
interview this morning

but the outcome
will be the same.

As soon as they hear

I'’m a person of interest
in a murder...

When was your ex-wife killed?

Almost one year ago.

Were you questioned?

Many times.

I'’ve done everything
they'’ve asked me to do.

I'’ve taken the polygraphs,
I'’ve submitted the DNA samples,

There'’s nothing that
connects me to the crime,

other than I use to be
married to the victim.

And you'’ve not hired
a lawyer on this before?

No, because I thought
it would just go away.

I'’ve never been arrested,
but as long as they

continue to call me
a person of interest,

it'’s never going to go away.

Not for me and my family,
anyway.

First thing, let'’s contact
the DA'’s Office,

see what the deal is--
you want to do that?

Fine. But can we now
talk about your dead husband?

[sighs] What about him?

What was he doing
at the Grover for starters?

Well, they have rooms there
at ten bucks a night.

Knowing Arthur, he was
probably beyond broke.

How long were you
married to him?

I don'’t know, Tommy.
The guy'’s dead.

He'’s been dead to me
for a long time.

I really don'’t feel like
talking about it, okay?

Who'’s dead?Nobody.

Harry, we got to decide on food
for Arnold'’s Thursday night.

You still haven'’t done it.Can'’t we just call it off?

We can'’t call it off.

We booked it,
we sent out invitations...

Listen, Lisa asked me
about performing.

Ooh, Tommy, not a chance.

Office parties are supposed
to be embarrassing.

Within limits.

You'’re not singing.

OLLIE:
Cassie,

meet Jodi Sullivan,
future lawyer.

Hi.Nice to meet you.

Jodi and I are due
in court pretty soon.

It'’s kind of a big case.

Just occurred to me, we could
use some help in court.

You got some time?What'’s the case?

I didn'’t get into law school--
Ohio Western University.

OLLIE:
4.0 GPA at Northwestern.

Killed her LSAT'’s,
it'’s kind of ridiculous.

Well, the criteria
for admissions

to any college
is pretty holistic.

I happen to know for a fact
I was turned down because
I'’m white.

Someone in Admissions
confided to me

that it had to do with
Affirmative Action.

Ah.

[sighing]:
So...

can you second-chair?

You got a second?

I don'’t even know where
to start with that.

"Come sit at our table, Cassie,
as a black window dressing."

Okay, it'’s not that, don'’t...It'’s exactly that.

And how dare you
put me on the spot

in front of a client
like that.

I just came up
with that right then.

It wasn'’t calculated.Why the hell would you
come up with that at all?

That I would want to be
a part of a case

opposing affirmative action?

Okay, forget it.
Let'’s just...Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

We won'’t be forgetting this.
I want to hear this.

I thought you'’d be opposed
because you'’d see it

as not only a
failed policy, but also...[wry laughter]

Okay, arm-cross.
There it is.

Affirmative action was passed
half a century ago

when there was was state
sponsored discrimination.

Now we have all kinds of
anti-discriminatory laws...Oh, so you think everything'’s

fixed now?Well, I just think
things are a lot better.

We have a black president,
for God sakes.

I mean, these
are different times.This doesn'’t eliminate racism!

And policies like admissions
need to be race-neutral.

The purpose of affirmative
action is not onlyWe have a qualified candidate

to eliminate discrimination
but to achieve racial equalitywho'’s being held back

for no other reason
than she'’s white--

we'’re a long, long way
away from that.

that is blatantly
unconstitutional and
should be set aside.

We'’re talking about 400 years
of systemic discrimination.

Do you really think that
we can undo all of that damage

with 30 years of good behavior?

You know what I think?

I think that you'’re one of
the smartest women I know.

It'’d be a shame
if everybody thought

that you got where you got

because of some affir--Get out of my office, Ollie.

With pleasure.

Unbelievable.

[door slams]

you have against him.

He had motive,
access, opportunity.

What motive?

He was paying her
a lot in alimony.

In fact, they argued
over it the week before.

He also knew
her keypad access number.

He also has an alibi.

Yes. His wife.
Who might be biased.

That'’s it?
Well, Harry,

if we had a case,
we'’d arrest him.

He'’s simply
a person of interest.

But, Roseanna,
by calling him that,

you essentially ruin his life.

Well, I'’m sorry about that.
What do you expect us to do?

Declare that he'’s not
a person of interest.

But that would be a lie.

Come on,
he'’s the ex.

He'’s got motive.
We have no other suspects.

Well, then arrest him and
let him have his day in court.

Can'’t you see how
unfair this is?

He has no opportunity
to clear his name,

and this murder just
hangs over him in perpetuity.

I don'’t know what to tell you.

You'’d really rather
I arrest the man?

I think not.

Karl, would you excuse us?
You, too, Ick.

I want to talk to Harry
about something else.

Um...

I-I heard about your ex-husband.

Uh, it'’s either "Sorry" or
"mazel tov," I'’m not quite sure.

I guess I'’ll go with "Sorry."

Are you okay?

Roseanna,
I haven'’t heard from the man,

or of him, for that matter,
for over 20 years.

Which husband was he?

I heard you'’d had
quite a few.

My first.

Ouch.

The one you married for
all the wrong reasons.

The one you really loved.

Well, look, uh...

if you ever, you know...

feel the need to talk, uh...

...I'’ve heard there are people
that do that sort of thing.

[clears throat]

Off you go, now.

I got an idea.

Uh-oh.

We sue the DA'’s Office
for slander,

defamation of character,

and we also go after Odom
personally.

He'’s the handling DA.

He'’d have qualified immunity.
We can'’t.

No, he wouldn'’t.
Or shouldn'’t.

This person
of interest thing--

there'’s no legal
authority for that.

He shouldn'’t enjoy
any immunity.

What kind of message
does this send our kids?

Study hard in school,
get good grades, walk the walk,

you'’ll be rewarded--

unless, of course,
your school decides

to reward somebody else
based on skin color.

I'’m sure, if you
were turned down,

it was just because
you were being a dope,

and had nothing to do--

Fine! Why not?

Oliver, this issue is
before the Supreme Court.

What state court judge would
even take jurisdiction?

She'’s enrolled in the fall term.

She'’s being victimized
right now.

Okay, look...

without taking a side,
let me just say--

Take her side.

Adam, I can see it.

Don'’t say,
"without taking sides,"

then completely back her.

You have to at least appreciate
the goal of affirmative action.

No, I don'’t.

Okay, you know what the goal
of affirmative action was?

Go ahead, cross the arms.

The main goal was to give
the disadvantaged kids

a little bit of a boost.

Now, my client came
from a poor neighborhood.

She went to bad schools,

she'’s every bit as
disadvantaged.

The main goal was diversity
in life and in school,

and couldn'’t be
left up to chance.

My client'’s being punished
because of her skin color.

[Cassie groans]ADAM: All right, all right.

Don'’t you think it'’s demeaning
to give minorities an advantage?

It'’s like saying, "Look, I know
you can'’t make it on your own,

so we'’re gonna spot you
a head start."

What? What'’d I say?

Adam in?
Nope.

Hey.

[giggles] You actually
took this guy'’s case?

Well, he has a case.

You can'’t discriminate against
a person for appearance.

He has no teeth.He has dentures.

Which he constantly
takes out.

Phoebe, it'’s not like
the guy'’s in sales.

He'’s in accounting.

He stays mostly
tucked away in his office.

He gets terminated-- why?

'’Cause his co-workers
don'’t want to look at him?

Really?

Adam, it'’s a white-
collar business.

He walks around with no teeth.

You'’re being
very, very childish.

You do realize that, right?

Got it. Childish.
Get out.

You know, even the liberal
state of California

got rid of affirmative action,
realizing that it was bogus?

Don'’t start with me.

And under race-neutral
admission policies,

the minority graduation
rates have gone up.

Why? Because applicants get in
based on merit.

Earth to Dumbo: It'’s not
just about enrollment,

it'’s also about equality.

And if you looked at
education, jobs, economy,

wealth, prison,

you'’d see that people of color
face a very different reality

than those
whose ancestors came--

Okay, suppose the
National Hockey League

wanted more blacks or the
NBA wanted more whites?

Should we just get rid of skill
as as criteria, and impose--

Oh, now you'’re just
being stupid.

No, my point is this
society functions best

as a meritocracy.

Which would be nice if we
had a level playing field,

but we do not.
If you ask me,
programs like

affirmative action only
perpetuate racial obsession.

Oh, where did you go
to school, Ollie?

Andover? Exeter?Which you would be able
to see if you weren'’t

so clouded by your black
guilt, which you have

no right to--
you'’re not even black!

Get out of my office!

You white racist pig!

Hey.

[elevator bell dings]

HARRY:
Uh...

let'’s go in my office.

HARRY: The district attorney is
not going to retract the label.

They have no other suspects.

They don'’t necessarily have
reason to believe you did it,

but since you are the ex--
with motive--

and the two of you fought the
week before, you'’re of interest.

So this "suspicion," it
just hangs over me forever?

It might.And I have no opportunity

to clear my name?

The only possible
recourse

would be
to sue the district attorney

for an abuse of power
or discretion.

Then let'’s do that.Well, it'’s not a winner,

and it could
compound the damage.

They took my house.

I beg your pardon?

The bank accelerated my mortgage
and called in the loan.

Why?Because I'’m out of work.

Because this person
of interest thing,

they say I don'’t figure
to get a job, and...

they don'’t want to wait
till I default.

Okay.

That changes things.

Be ready to go to court
tomorrow.

Are you sure you want
to make a big federal
case out of this?

No, only state, and I
don'’t see why this is
so amusing to you.

He lost his job.
In this economy?

Well, now he can look
for a better job, get
some better choppers.

[giggles]
This isn'’t funny.

Okay, look.
How about this:

Don'’t file yet,
let me depose him,

get his story,

and then we'’ll see if
we can make it go away.

Cassie.

[pouring coffee]

I'’m sorry.

I didn'’t mean...

The black guilt comment,
that was just way out of line.

I feel like you were coming down
on me, so I just

sort of lashed back and...

Cassie, look at me.

[sighs]

I'’m sorry. I really am.

You really loved basketball
as a kid, didn'’t you, Ollie?

Yeah.

And if the NBA had just
established a white quota,

you might just
have made it.

My client, Jody, she went
to an inner city school

in the worst part
of Cincinnati.

Do you really think it'’s fair
that some rich kid

who goes to a private school
gets preferential treatment?

Of course not.

But he or she would
if he or she were black.

Okay. Can we just agree
to disagree and not
take it personal?

Can we do that?

Ollie,
to a lot of people of color,

Affirmative Action is personal.

This is ridiculous! How the hell
does she sue me personally?

Oh, just filled out
a couple of forms.

I will squash this
so, so fast--

JUDGE: No, you won'’t, Counsel.
Little unorthodox

suing the D.A.'’s office.And me personally.

This whole person of interest
thing is a bit unorthodox.Oh, really?

Tell that to the President
of the United States,

who allows us to
even detain persons--HARRY: I'’ll tell him.

I'’ll tell him
a few other things, too.

This is a pile of crap.

Everybody in this
room knows it.

If you want to
call somebody
a suspect,

then call him
a suspect.

The President of
the United States--Will you shut up?

REMMICK: Judge, you can'’t
sue a D.A. personally.

That much is clear;
we do have immunity.

Qualified immunity,
and not when you act

outside the scope
of your authority.

I bet you have that written
on your hand.

All right, all right,
we'’re not going to
do this in here.

You want to take this
into the courtroom,
let'’s do that and get it

on the record, if that'’s
what you really want.

I do.

All right.

Tomorrow, 10:00 a.m.

Suing me personally?

Yeah. I'’ll sue your
mother, too. I bet

you still live with her.JUDGE: All right.

Let'’s get the troops
to do some research,

see if we have
any grounds to make
a meal out of this.

[phone ringing]All we have to do is make out
a claim for damages,

which should be easy.Yeah.

Hello.

Yeah, this is she.

What the hell do I care?

No, you can'’t burn him;
he hated fire.

He wasn'’t a Catholic,

so his final destination
shouldn'’t be fire.

[clicks off]
What was that?

Oh, nobody'’s claiming
Arthur'’s body,

so the City evidently
just cremates them if--

Nobody'’s claiming him?

He doesn'’t have family?

Well, the thing
about Arthur was,

he just had a knack
for driving everybody away.

Well, you can'’t just let him
get cremated with no service.

I'’m not gonna pay for a funeral.
What, you kidding me?

What?

Oh, for God'’s sake.

Food?Check.

Entertainment?
Check.

Designated drivers?
Check.

We'’re all checked out;
we'’re ready.

Okay.
Listen.
Given our bumpy patch,

you and I should find
a moment to get a drink
at the party. Make out.

I mean, make up.

Okay.

And maybe a dance.

Guys love watching two girls
dancing together.

HARRY: He was Jewish,
so get him into the ground

as fast as you can or else
he goes to Jewish hell.

If I could just collect
some general information
on the deceased,

Social Security number,
Certificate of Birth--

Yeah, I have none of that crap;
just dig the hole.Harry.

We'’re just looking for a simple
but dignified burial.

And how many will we be
expecting at the service?

Counting him, one.

Do you dig the hole yourself,

or do you have helpers?
Can I speak to them?

TOMMY: Harry.

You were married to this man.

What do we do first?

The selection of a casket;
we offer a nice variety,

beginning with the
"Truman," 20-gauge steel
with a crepe interior.

It'’s very basic, not something
I typically recommend.

I might suggest the
"Promethean Blue Velvet,"

very popular in
Cincinnati, dignified,

understated,
and in my mind,
quite timeless.

How much?

32,800.

We'’ll take the Hefty.

You'’re going to Jewish hell,
too, by the way.

What a crook.

$17,000 for a funeral?

Can you believe that crap?
17 grand!

Why can'’t people just
walk into the woods,

like dogs, to die?
Which he was one.

Harry, I don'’t know what
your relationship was

with this guy in the end,
but you married him.

You had to have loved him.

So?

So, that puts him
on the short list

of important people
in your life.

To talk about him like...You didn'’t know him, Adam.

It doesn'’t matter. If he was
worthy of your love, he'’s worthy

of a decent funeral,
even at 17 grand.

You got the money.Who assigned you

the job of moral
commissioner
around here?

I'’d like to know that.You only get one chance

to say good-bye to the man.Which I did

some 30 years ago.

[sighs]

What was he like?

What does it matter?

I'’m just curious.
You'’re my friend.

You married this person.
What was he like?

[sighs]

He was a party.

Not much more
than that.

I met him when I was
his legal secretary.

Insisted I go to law school.

Said I'’d be good at it.

And we fell in love
and we got married.

And what happened?

Ha. What didn'’t?

He was a drunk.

He was a gambler.

He was a womanizer.

He was the biggest
scoundrel I ever met.

He was a hell of a party.

[elevator bell dings]

ADAM: It'’s mainly a discovery
tool for the defense,

so just answer only
the questions that are asked,

Don'’t feel the need to
volunteer information.
Okay.

You can go right in
the conference room.

We'’ll start as soon
as she gets here.
Okay. Thanks.

Harry, Jenna called. She'’s got
meetings or trade shows

all week;
she won'’t make the party.Oh.

Well, let'’s just call
the stupid thing off, then.

We'’re not going
to call it off.

It'’s our anniversary, not
to mention a pretty big deal.

It'’s pretty hard to launch
a law firm in this climate,

much less a successful
shoe store.Hmm.

It'’s possible, possible the
judge may ask you questions.

It'’s highly unlikely, but...What would he ask?

She, and it could be anything.

She'’s a hot judge, meaning
she interrupts a lot.

And one of the things she may
ask about is your other choices.

Why Ohio Western
when you got into
two other schools?

Their financial-aid packages
were such that I couldn'’t
afford to go there.

State school is
my only option.

That'’s what you tell them.

Now, listen, Jody,
this is a bit of a
long shot, especially since

the Supreme Court is ruling
on this very issue in the fall.

It could be good news
in the future,

but today'’s court may
very well decide to defer.

That won'’t be any help
for you the fall semester.

Are you ready?

Ready.

Thank you.

Hi.

What are you doing?

I'’m sorry.
I can'’t look at him.

Excuse me?I can'’t stop thinking

about my uncle who
popped his dentures

and made us all laugh.Will you please grow up?

I'’m sorry. Dentures
regress me to, like...

The person of interest label
is destructive.

It has no basis
in the law whatsoever,

and it amounts to
prosecutorial misconduct,

which the D.A.--I'’m sorry, if that'’s
where you'’re going,

the President of the
United States of America--

Oh, again with the President;
this does not involve
the President--

Of course it does! Your Honor,
the Commander-in-Chief himself,

who we know is pro
individual rights,

pro due process,
pro Constitution--

in fact,
he'’s a Constitutional scholar--

he not only legitimized
"person of interest,"

he issued an executive
order saying

it was legal to even
detain such persons

without giving them the
opportunity to be heard.

And it'’s utter hooey.

Ms. Korn, we'’re not going to
make this about politics.Fine.

Let'’s keep it about due process.

"Person of interest"

is the prosecutor'’s
favorite new toy,

and it'’s also utter fiction.

Go through every procedural

and substantive law
book, penal code,

you'’ll see terms
like "accused,"

"alleged," "indict,"
"subject," "target,"

"material witness,"

and all these terms
are legally defined.

But nowhere, nowhere,
will you find

this ridiculous
"person of interest,"

because it does not exist.

I could move for a probable
cause hearing for my client

if he was arrested as a suspect.

The Constitution grants
rights to suspects,

but with "person of interest,"

they get to end-run
his right to a hearing,

his right to an attorney...

We'’re at a hearing now,
he'’s got an attorney.

Not on this bogus charge.

Your Honor,
he passed a lie detector.

He has completely cooperated.

There is no evidence
to connect him to this crime.

His children have
to go to school,

they'’re subject to taunting...

Your Honor, how is this...I'’m talking.

There sits the murder
victim'’s own family.

Even they will vouch
for George Pelman.

They will tell you
that there is no way

that he could have...

If you want to ruin his life,

then at least give him
his day in court.

Give him a chance
to clear his name.

JUDGE BABCOCK:
Mr. Odom...

This does seem
pretty outrageous.

Not to mention unfair.

Due process is required only
when the state seeks to deprive

a person of life,
liberty, or property.

Loss of reputation does not
trigger due process.

My client has been
deprived of liberty.

He'’s also lost property.

The bank just took his house.

He has not lost property
as defined by the Constitution.

Why, exactly,
do you consider this man

a person of interest

in the death of his ex-wife?Well, first,

he would have motive.

He would get to stop
making alimony payments

if she were dead.

He knew her keypad access.

They actually argued
the week before.

That'’s it?

Which is why we haven'’t
declared him an actual suspect.

Do you want me to sing it?

I'’ll hop on one leg
if you want.

♪ He'’s not a suspect ♪

♪ He'’s not
a suspect ♪

♪ He'’s not a suspect. ♪

But as an ex, with
motive and opportunity...

[clears throat]

All "person of interest" means

is he'’s on our radar
as a possibility.

We'’d be derelict if
he was noton our radar.

The problem is, Your Honor,

"person of interest"
connotes way more than

"he'’s a what-ifer."

Or "he'’s on our radar."

It suggests focus.

It suggests he'’s the one
we'’re honing in on.

That'’s why it'’s so destructive.
I mean, this man,

his family, their lives have
been irreparably devastated.

And they have absolutely
no recourse.

I could think of nothing
more profoundly unfair.

This is wrong.

It'’s wrong, it'’s wrong.

And we need to fix it today.

Were you told that
the discharge was related to

your not having...

...you know.
I was told that
I was a distraction.

I was told that my appearance

was causing a breakdown

in the decorum
of the work atmosphere.

Okay.
And, by the way,

the way in which
I lost my teeth?

It was an automobile accident

where two lives were lost.

One a very dear
friend of mine.

I am very sorry.
Thank you.

So, as I understand it,

it'’s not your having dentures
that was an issue,

but your taking them out.

The dentures, for whatever
reason, are painful.

And so to get relief,
I sometimes

pop them out of my mouth.
Slightly.

Just to take the pressure off.

And this is what
they object to.

I see.

Actually, may I see?

Can you... pop them out?

And you walk around
the office like that?

Sometimes.

Okay.

And they just
stay out like that?

No, I... pop them out,

put them back, whatever.

When I need to get relief.

Okay, Nelson,
I think I get it.

You get it, counsel?

Fine.

You want to take another look,
just so...

No, I'’m good.
Okay.

And, sir, there are reports

that sometimes you click them,
you pop them in and out,

click-click-click.
Right.

May I see that,
what we'’re talking about?

[chokes]

I'’m sorry.

Do you think this
is funny, counsel?No.

No, it'’s certainly
not funny...

You know what,
maybe we should take a break.

No. No. Where were...

[wheezing, stifled laughter]

I'’m sorry.
Ha ha ha...

[laughing]

You totally did that
to me on purpose.

I did not.
You did too.

Okay, maybe a little
on purpose.

This is really not funny.

Mm, not a bit.

People lost lives in this...Shame.

Oh, stop.
[giggles]

Can we just settle this?

Oh, you want to settle, now?

Yes.

Mm. Make me an offer.

No, you make me an offer.

You want me to
make you an offer?

I do.

I'’ll make an offer.

How was that?

It was a start.

You need to throw in
some money as well.

Oh, you want money now.

You laughed at me.

No, I didn'’t.
Yes, you did.

I saw you.
You laughed.
Well...

Look, it'’s a good offer.

I think we should take it.
$29,000.

But why did you laugh?
Well...

The... clicking
caught me off guard.

People died in that accident.

I know.

It'’s awful.

It'’s a good offer.

Affirmative Action
is simply... outdated.

That right?

What'’s more, it is
intrinsically unfair.

People like my client lose out.

This is supposed to be a
meritocracy, but Jody...No, it'’s not.

It has never been that.

School admissions are about

more than highest grades
or best scores.

My client was denied
because she'’s white.

I'’ll say it again.

Because she'’s white.

Suppose she were kept out
because she was black.

That'’d be different.Why?

'’Cause then she'’d be black.

Right now, she'’s white.

Look, nobody has a right
to admission.

A school can take you
or reject you

for anything they want.

Ohio Western takes kids

on how well
they can quarterback.No doubt,

but what if they started only
recruiting white quarterbacks?

Or black ones?

Would you be okay
with that, Your Honor?

Which? The black or the white?

You think this is funny?No.

What I think is funny,
Counselor,

is that you don'’t get it.

Affirmative Action
is not just about

leveling the playing field.

It'’s about redeeming
a past wrong.

A pretty big wrong.

My client didn'’t
commit those wrongs.

Why should she be punished?

It'’s not about fairness.

Nor does this policy
reward the people

who were actually victimized.

It is about a school'’s
need to create

a diverse student body.

That is no reason to eliminate
fairness from the equation.

This is a court of law.

She'’s got a 4.0 GPA,
her test scores...

Oh, standardized tests
have always been biased

against blacks and Hispanics.

That is a separate issue.Oh, no, it is not.

Martin Luther King tested below
average on verbal aptitude.

That'’s probably because

he went to a crappy school,
and so did she.

Do I get to talk?
Yes.

There is a testing gap.

There is an educational gap.

Kids that go to
inner-city schools

do not get
the same opportunities.

Shouldn'’t it be our
goal to fix that,

instead of trying to rig
the system to eliminate merit?

And no doubt we'’re trying.

But in the meantime, what?

And that'’s a very
big "meantime."

Okay. If you are so determined

to have an Affirmative
Action program,

at least let it
be based on class.

The kids that come
out of the bad schools,

give them an edge,
sure, if you want to.

But to give
preferential treatment

based on race or skin color

goes against everything
our country stands for,

as well as the principles
of its greatest heroes,

including Martin Luther King.

All right, look.

You make a lot of valid...

well, I'’m sure there'’s a valid
point in there somewhere.

But this very issue

is before the Supreme Court.

Which means I'’m
not the decider here.

Justice Scalia,
Justice Roberts...

they get to be the deciders.

Okay, this problem is not
going to wait until the fall.

I know your problem.

Miss Sullivan,

I realize this isn'’t fair.

But just by me taking this case,

the Supreme Court is telling me

this issue is
above my pay grade.

You are purposely choosing

not to get involved
because you do not want to help.

Okay.

Plaintiff'’s motion is denied.

Adjourned.

Sorry.

It'’s just not fair.

Well, like you said,
it was a long shot.

Thanks for trying
to help, Mr. Richard.

Harry, I'’ve decided to
give my two weeks'’ notice.

What?

Why?

It'’s just...

time to move on, I think.

Close the door.

Look...

Love hurts.

From everything I'’ve read,
it'’s supposed to.

I'’m sure seeing

Adam with Phoebe is...

It isn'’t that.

Chunhua.

Whatever the hell'’s
going on with them,

don'’t let it derail you.

Other than that one
little mass firing,

you'’ve been
a tremendous success here.

And what'’s more,

this law firm isn'’t
just me, or Adam.

It'’s all of us.

Judge.

Let me ask you

Did you listen

I said today?

Not really.

[chuckles]

I mean, you can'’t expect me

You'’re exceeding capacity,
ma'’am.

No, absolutely not.
Cassie,

could you work something out
with Fireman Joe here?

He says that we'’ve
got too many people.

Flash him some leg.

Okay.

Hello.

Now?

You gotta be kidding me.
What?

The Judge has come back

Mr. Pelman, I concur,
there is no rational basis

to either suspect or
implicate you in this crime.

But there'’s not much I can do
much about this

"person of interest"
tag because the term...

it doesn'’t mean anything.

The real problem is the media.

They chomp for copy,

and if they can'’t have
a suspect,

they need something to run with.

Hence, "person of interest."

The police and the D.A.'’s
like it because they get

to convey "progress"
in a case where,

in truth, they got nothing.

I can'’t stop them from using
the term because...

as endangered
as free speech is,

we technically still
allow it.

Your only recourse,

as you suspect,
is a defamation claim...

which I'’m allowing to stand.

No only against
the DA'’s Office,

but also against
Mr. Odom personally.

You cannot be serious!

Mr. Odom, if you want
to throw around

this "person of interest"
term, fine.

But if you do so with negligence
and cause damages...

this case goes on.

Adjourned.

a start, anyway.

First of all,

I want thank all of you

I don'’t know who the hell

most of you are,

And with any luck, we'’ll get
a chance to do this next year.

I don'’t usually go in

a little song.

[cheering]

Never mind.

Um, I don'’t sing too well.

And I don'’t play this thing
too well, either,

so if, if I suck,
just pretend I don'’t, okay?

[laughter]

And I'’d like to take it down
a little bit,

and if you'’ll indulge me,

I'’d like to...

I'’d like to sing this one
for an old friend.
