1
00:00:03,650 --> 00:00:05,413
Somebody almost killed
little Mary Carmony.
2
00:00:05,552 --> 00:00:06,610
Hey!
3
00:00:11,291 --> 00:00:13,054
Hey, what's with you, man?
4
00:00:13,126 --> 00:00:14,150
You threatening us?
5
00:00:14,227 --> 00:00:15,251
Am I ever.
6
00:00:15,329 --> 00:00:16,694
He was found
in the shrubbery this morning.
7
00:00:16,763 --> 00:00:17,821
I think I better
read you your rights.
8
00:00:17,898 --> 00:00:19,126
Why were you disbarred?
9
00:00:19,199 --> 00:00:21,633
Dismiss the case
on a point of legal precedent.
10
00:00:21,702 --> 00:00:23,829
Mr. Ward,
why don't you give me a break?
11
00:00:23,904 --> 00:00:26,031
Get a pail
and start bailing.
12
00:00:28,542 --> 00:00:29,839
Cut them off, Coop.
13
00:00:36,650 --> 00:00:38,049
ROCKFORD
This is Jim Rockford.
14
00:00:38,118 --> 00:00:39,585
At the tone, leave your name
and message.
15
00:00:39,653 --> 00:00:40,711
I'll get back to you.
16
00:00:41,888 --> 00:00:43,685
Jimmy, Angel. Here's a tip,
but his handwriting is bad.
17
00:00:43,757 --> 00:00:45,622
Third son in the fifth race
at Bell Meadows.
18
00:00:45,692 --> 00:00:47,717
Wait a minute, could be
fifth son in the third.
19
00:00:47,794 --> 00:00:50,092
Wait, this might be
next week's race.
20
00:02:40,407 --> 00:02:42,967
Hey, Mickey,
you going downtown?
21
00:02:44,010 --> 00:02:45,068
No.
22
00:02:45,912 --> 00:02:48,073
What's his name
went down to the store to get some brew.
23
00:02:48,148 --> 00:02:50,343
Who's what's his name?
24
00:02:50,417 --> 00:02:54,046
You know, the guy,
what's his name.
25
00:02:54,988 --> 00:02:56,387
Here he comes, anyway.
26
00:02:56,623 --> 00:02:58,147
Maniac, slow down.
27
00:03:03,129 --> 00:03:04,323
Maniac.
28
00:03:13,273 --> 00:03:15,298
Mary, you all right?
29
00:03:15,375 --> 00:03:17,172
I'm okay. Thanks.
30
00:03:26,119 --> 00:03:27,814
Get the beer, huh?
31
00:03:31,625 --> 00:03:33,957
Hey, what are
you looking at?
32
00:03:53,380 --> 00:03:56,144
Now hold it, sonny.
Hold it.
33
00:03:56,216 --> 00:03:57,740
Yeah, they done it
all right.
34
00:03:57,817 --> 00:04:00,183
But, well,
the cops are there now, let them handle it.
35
00:04:00,253 --> 00:04:02,949
They don't handle it.
You've told me 95 times.
36
00:04:03,023 --> 00:04:04,047
I know, I know.
37
00:04:04,124 --> 00:04:05,523
But, well, you see,
that Eugene,
38
00:04:05,592 --> 00:04:08,755
he's got a clear shot
right through his backyard to Georgina Street.
39
00:04:08,828 --> 00:04:10,455
He can see
the cops coming.
40
00:04:10,530 --> 00:04:11,519
By the time
they get here,
41
00:04:11,598 --> 00:04:15,329
he's got the music turned
off and the squabbling all stopped.
42
00:04:20,807 --> 00:04:22,138
Who knocked down
the mailbox?
43
00:04:22,208 --> 00:04:24,335
Madonna, Officer,
I wish I knew.
44
00:04:24,878 --> 00:04:26,277
I'm in the house
with my friends, right?
45
00:04:26,346 --> 00:04:28,075
We're listening
to Carpenters.
46
00:04:28,148 --> 00:04:29,513
All of a sudden,
we hear a squeal.
47
00:04:29,583 --> 00:04:33,644
We run to the window,
there's a big cadi taking off down the block.
48
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,451
And his mailbox,
ba-ba-bing, down for the count.
49
00:04:37,524 --> 00:04:38,957
Says it was
this Volkswagen.
50
00:04:39,025 --> 00:04:43,155
Oh, gosh, Officer,
this man is wrong. I swear on my mother's grave.
51
00:04:43,229 --> 00:04:45,823
He's old, am I right?
Senile.
52
00:04:46,466 --> 00:04:49,435
Yeah, go ahead.
Check for paint on the bumper.
53
00:04:52,305 --> 00:04:53,363
How loud were
these carpenters?
54
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,203
Were they deliberately
hammering loudly?
55
00:04:57,043 --> 00:05:02,071
No, Officer, the Carpenters
are a singing group, real gentle and sweet.
56
00:05:02,148 --> 00:05:04,514
He says you're playing
hard rock on your stereo. How loud was it?
57
00:05:04,584 --> 00:05:05,608
What difference
does that make?
58
00:05:05,685 --> 00:05:08,711
The sound laws don't come
on till 10:00 at night, am I right?
59
00:05:16,796 --> 00:05:20,698
Hey, hey.
Now, come on, huh? That's it?
60
00:05:20,767 --> 00:05:23,497
Now don't start
nothing like you did Tuesday, sonny.
61
00:05:23,570 --> 00:05:24,764
Maybe it just
ain't worth it.
62
00:05:24,838 --> 00:05:26,169
All right, Dad,
I won't.
63
00:05:26,239 --> 00:05:29,072
That's right.
It ain't worth it.
64
00:05:29,142 --> 00:05:32,669
Look at them now.
Regular little angels, ain't they?
65
00:05:32,746 --> 00:05:36,011
Laying low for a while,
but it'll all start up again tonight,
66
00:05:36,082 --> 00:05:38,607
busting the 10:00
noise rule and all.
67
00:05:39,319 --> 00:05:41,719
There ain't nobody
around here to prove what a hellhole
68
00:05:41,788 --> 00:05:43,415
they're making out
of our neighborhood.
69
00:05:43,490 --> 00:05:46,982
Yeah, well, we'll fix
this mailbox, then we'll go get some R&R.
70
00:05:47,060 --> 00:05:49,187
Hey, Fannon's boat.
All right.
71
00:05:51,264 --> 00:05:53,459
You know, you could
abide that rock and roll.
72
00:05:53,533 --> 00:05:55,763
I even find my own foot
tapping sometimes.
73
00:05:55,835 --> 00:05:59,771
But that darn Eugene and
his outfit, they don't make allowances for no one.
74
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:01,397
They never turn
the music down.
75
00:06:01,474 --> 00:06:03,942
And they've been hounding poor
old Carl Gibbons over there.
76
00:06:04,010 --> 00:06:06,535
They got him too scared
to file charges.
77
00:06:06,613 --> 00:06:09,878
Well, there.
That's about as good as new.
78
00:06:09,949 --> 00:06:13,942
You could live with
the Victrola turned up high,
79
00:06:14,020 --> 00:06:15,487
you could live
with them fast cars.
80
00:06:15,555 --> 00:06:19,616
But what I can't
live with is...
81
00:06:19,693 --> 00:06:21,684
Well, this stinking fear.
82
00:06:21,761 --> 00:06:24,559
Yeah, well, you got your
pole and your tackle box all ready to go?
83
00:06:24,631 --> 00:06:25,893
Yeah.
All right.
84
00:06:25,965 --> 00:06:27,262
Oh, hey, listen,
I'm sorry.
85
00:06:27,333 --> 00:06:29,767
I got a phone call
this morning.
86
00:06:29,836 --> 00:06:31,167
Some business
matters came up.
87
00:06:31,237 --> 00:06:33,205
So, I'm just gonna have
to drop you at Fannon's,
88
00:06:33,273 --> 00:06:34,365
and then I'm
going to take off.
89
00:06:34,441 --> 00:06:36,238
Ah, what a crummy day.
90
00:07:00,867 --> 00:07:07,272
At the tone, the time will
be 10:22 p.m. and 10 seconds.
91
00:07:10,477 --> 00:07:13,139
At the tone,
the time will be 10:22...
92
00:07:13,213 --> 00:07:15,147
Hey! Hey!
93
00:07:15,215 --> 00:07:16,204
... and 20 seconds.
94
00:07:16,282 --> 00:07:18,876
All right, all right.
95
00:07:22,088 --> 00:07:24,955
All right, who wants
to take count? Over here, over here.
96
00:07:25,024 --> 00:07:27,788
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven.
97
00:07:27,861 --> 00:07:28,953
What do you want on yours?
98
00:07:29,395 --> 00:07:30,384
Tomatoes.
99
00:07:31,397 --> 00:07:32,386
What do you want on yours?
100
00:07:37,270 --> 00:07:39,465
Hey, what's with you, man?
101
00:07:39,539 --> 00:07:43,635
You pick those out of there,
briquette by briquette, and put them in that bag.
102
00:07:43,710 --> 00:07:45,268
Go pick your feet.
103
00:07:46,913 --> 00:07:49,507
Here, lady,
you hold the bag for him.
104
00:07:51,518 --> 00:07:55,648
Hey, what the hell you think
you're doing, sonny Jim? This here's private property.
105
00:07:55,722 --> 00:07:59,283
He's nuts, Eugene.
He said I ripped off his old man's charcoals.
106
00:07:59,359 --> 00:08:01,759
I bought them charcoals
myself, sonny Jim.
107
00:08:01,828 --> 00:08:03,887
I'm not going to argue
with you, Conigliaro.
108
00:08:03,963 --> 00:08:06,454
I'm taking them back
to my dad's, next door.
109
00:08:06,533 --> 00:08:08,592
No kidding.
We was kind of thinking
110
00:08:08,668 --> 00:08:11,034
maybe you want to
get down, you know?
111
00:08:11,104 --> 00:08:14,039
Like you done
the other day. You remember?
112
00:08:14,107 --> 00:08:16,632
When you hit me
when I wasn't looking.
113
00:08:16,709 --> 00:08:19,234
Oh, yeah, yeah.
When you broke the window?
114
00:08:19,312 --> 00:08:23,009
Yeah, well, it's kind
of hard to see anything when you're running away.
115
00:08:23,082 --> 00:08:25,073
I wasn't running, turkey.
116
00:08:26,186 --> 00:08:28,586
Hey, you want
to do the number? 'Cause I'm ready.
117
00:08:28,655 --> 00:08:30,520
Come on. Come on.
118
00:08:32,091 --> 00:08:34,457
How about that,
Harry High School.
119
00:08:34,527 --> 00:08:38,691
Are you, by chance, referring
to anybody who is present here at the festivity?
120
00:08:38,765 --> 00:08:42,064
Your dude's got a problem,
let me and Drew in for a piece.
121
00:08:42,135 --> 00:08:45,696
You're righteous hosts,
and we don't feature negative vibes.
122
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,232
Come on, chicky.
123
00:08:49,676 --> 00:08:52,008
What? You want
me to go, huh?
124
00:08:52,078 --> 00:08:54,706
So all of you can jump me,
is that what you want?
125
00:08:54,781 --> 00:08:56,908
No, I've got
a better idea.
126
00:08:58,151 --> 00:09:01,450
We will dance,
but one at a time.
127
00:09:01,521 --> 00:09:02,988
You threatening us?
128
00:09:03,056 --> 00:09:04,421
Am I ever.
129
00:09:05,625 --> 00:09:06,990
You don't frighten me.
130
00:09:10,797 --> 00:09:12,264
Oh, yes, I do.
131
00:09:12,966 --> 00:09:17,300
You keep listening
to that little voice way down inside you, Eugene,
132
00:09:17,370 --> 00:09:21,431
the one that keeps
screaming at you, "Bounce back to Jersey."
133
00:09:27,513 --> 00:09:29,572
I don't believe that.
134
00:09:30,149 --> 00:09:31,844
Hey, hey, hey.
All right.
135
00:09:48,234 --> 00:09:49,258
Morning, sir.
136
00:09:49,335 --> 00:09:50,359
Hey, what's going on?
137
00:09:50,436 --> 00:09:51,960
Is your name
James Rockford, sir?
138
00:09:52,038 --> 00:09:53,027
Yeah.
139
00:09:53,106 --> 00:09:55,438
Do you know a man
by the name of Mac Amodeus, sir?
140
00:09:55,508 --> 00:09:57,533
No, why?
What's the problem?
141
00:09:57,610 --> 00:09:58,770
Well, that's him, sir.
142
00:09:58,845 --> 00:10:00,073
He was found in
the shrubbery this morning.
143
00:10:00,146 --> 00:10:02,080
It appears he was
beaten to death.
144
00:10:02,148 --> 00:10:04,013
Sometime last night, huh?
145
00:10:04,083 --> 00:10:07,450
He was a guest of
a Mr. Conigliaro and a Mr. Long, next door.
146
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:08,987
Sir, witnesses over
there have told us
147
00:10:09,055 --> 00:10:11,148
that you threatened
several people at a party last night
148
00:10:11,224 --> 00:10:14,193
and Mr. Amodeus
was one of them. Is that true?
149
00:10:14,260 --> 00:10:16,956
Sir, I think
I better read you your rights, okay?
150
00:10:17,030 --> 00:10:18,554
I know my rights.
151
00:10:18,631 --> 00:10:21,429
I didn't know this guy
Amodeus and I certainly didn't kill him.
152
00:10:21,567 --> 00:10:23,831
Yes, sir, but that's up to
someone else to determine.
153
00:10:23,903 --> 00:10:26,371
In the meantime,
"You have the right to remain silent.
154
00:10:26,439 --> 00:10:28,907
"Anything you say can
and will be used against you in a court of law.
155
00:10:28,975 --> 00:10:31,409
"You have the right
to an attorney."
156
00:10:39,919 --> 00:10:42,114
I thought we'd never
get out of there.
157
00:10:42,188 --> 00:10:47,285
I know that Deputy DA Cowan.
He's a real hamburger. Hair-splitter extraordinaire.
158
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,261
However, he's got
a heck of a case. A heck of a case!
159
00:10:50,330 --> 00:10:51,888
How? I didn't do it.
160
00:10:51,965 --> 00:10:53,057
Hmm.
161
00:10:53,132 --> 00:10:55,794
The state can prove
you threatened four men at that party,
162
00:10:55,868 --> 00:10:57,563
the deceased being
one of them.
163
00:10:57,637 --> 00:10:59,605
They can also prove
a long-standing enmity
164
00:10:59,672 --> 00:11:01,867
between you and members
of the Coniglio household.
165
00:11:01,941 --> 00:11:04,171
Can we just slow
down a minute, huh?
166
00:11:04,243 --> 00:11:07,337
I just spent
the night in jail, and it's Conigliaro.
167
00:11:07,413 --> 00:11:11,144
Right. In a 187 PC,
you got your big three.
168
00:11:11,217 --> 00:11:13,117
Motive, weapon,
opportunity.
169
00:11:13,186 --> 00:11:14,380
Don't ever forget that.
170
00:11:14,454 --> 00:11:17,890
In this case,
weapon equals bruised knuckles and sprained thumb
171
00:11:17,957 --> 00:11:19,254
the police discovered
on your right hand.
172
00:11:19,325 --> 00:11:23,022
I got that in a fight with
Eugene Conigliaro two days ago when he broke a window.
173
00:11:23,096 --> 00:11:24,085
Hmm.
174
00:11:24,163 --> 00:11:26,461
Look, Mr. Ward,
wait, wait, wait.
175
00:11:26,532 --> 00:11:30,195
Your attitude is making
me smell cyanide. I didn't murder this guy.
176
00:11:30,269 --> 00:11:33,363
Now, if you can't accept
that fact as part of your working philosophy,
177
00:11:33,439 --> 00:11:36,101
I'll see that Harcourt
and Lowe assign me a different attorney.
178
00:11:36,175 --> 00:11:39,338
Oh, oh, oh. Well, let's hold
our collective horses a sec.
179
00:11:39,412 --> 00:11:41,676
I didn't mean
there's no hope. Heck no.
180
00:11:41,748 --> 00:11:45,081
But whether I believe you or
not is nihil ad rem pertinet.
181
00:11:45,151 --> 00:11:47,745
What matters here
is strategy, and I've got one.
182
00:11:47,820 --> 00:11:49,720
Yeah, well,
I can't tell you how that makes me feel.
183
00:11:49,789 --> 00:11:51,848
You know,
I was sitting all alone in jail last night,
184
00:11:51,924 --> 00:11:53,949
I got to thinking about
Beth not being with the firm any longer.
185
00:11:54,027 --> 00:11:55,551
Oh, great gal,
great gal.
186
00:11:55,628 --> 00:11:59,962
I'm confident I can negotiate
Cowan down from Murder one to Murder two.
187
00:12:00,033 --> 00:12:03,594
Plea bargain? I'm not gonna
bargain for anything. I'm innocent of the crime.
188
00:12:03,669 --> 00:12:05,603
All right, here's
the short strokes.
189
00:12:05,671 --> 00:12:07,605
Four and a half to seven?
190
00:12:07,673 --> 00:12:08,935
Or ten to twenty?
191
00:12:09,008 --> 00:12:10,771
I'm not going
to cop a plea.
192
00:12:10,843 --> 00:12:15,303
Jim? May I call you Jim?
Hey, Jim, I don't know you, you don't know me.
193
00:12:15,381 --> 00:12:16,507
Heck, you seem
like a nice guy.
194
00:12:16,582 --> 00:12:19,415
I remember Beth brought
you to a Harcourt and Lowe Christmas party.
195
00:12:19,485 --> 00:12:22,318
But the thing is,
if we're gonna work together,
196
00:12:22,388 --> 00:12:26,484
you gotta realize
that I work at my own pace, in my own way.
197
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,652
Oh, you do, huh?
198
00:12:28,728 --> 00:12:31,356
"Two roads diverged in
a yellow wood, and I
199
00:12:31,431 --> 00:12:33,661
"I took the one
less traveled by
200
00:12:33,733 --> 00:12:36,600
"And that has made
all the difference"
201
00:12:36,669 --> 00:12:37,897
Robert Frost.
202
00:12:37,970 --> 00:12:39,369
Oh, bother,
I know what that is.
203
00:12:39,439 --> 00:12:42,636
It's the office
calling about US versus OI' Dan'I Boone.
204
00:12:42,708 --> 00:12:44,198
Who?
205
00:12:44,277 --> 00:12:46,438
It's a fascinating
antitrust case.
206
00:12:46,512 --> 00:12:47,945
Five years they've
been taking it up the ladder.
207
00:12:48,014 --> 00:12:49,743
Sumner Harcourt himself
is going to argue it
208
00:12:49,816 --> 00:12:51,784
before the Supreme Court
in about a month.
209
00:12:51,851 --> 00:12:54,945
It's taken 10 years off
the life of Wade G. Ward, I can tell you.
210
00:12:55,021 --> 00:12:57,785
Yeah, well, you really
think you can handle two cases at once?
211
00:12:57,857 --> 00:12:58,846
Got to.
212
00:12:58,925 --> 00:13:03,953
Anyway, the SEC avers that
OI' Dan'I Boone Distillers acted in restraint of trade
213
00:13:04,030 --> 00:13:06,897
by buying several
cocktail mixer corporations
214
00:13:06,966 --> 00:13:09,457
through their subsidiary,
American Carbonated Inc.
215
00:13:09,535 --> 00:13:10,593
Boy, it has been a bear.
216
00:13:10,670 --> 00:13:13,730
Oh, fascinating.
I bet you can hardly put the briefs down.
217
00:13:13,806 --> 00:13:15,603
Hi, Patty,
what's up?
218
00:13:15,675 --> 00:13:16,664
Uh-huh.
219
00:13:17,176 --> 00:13:19,041
Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
220
00:13:19,112 --> 00:13:22,673
Look, Mr. Ward,
I really need a shower bad, but I do want to talk to you.
221
00:13:22,748 --> 00:13:25,546
Yeah, we will, we will.
Go home, shower, but stay there.
222
00:13:25,618 --> 00:13:27,882
By all means,
don't go near the Coniglio house.
223
00:13:27,954 --> 00:13:31,355
No, no, no, no, no.
That paragraph should be changed to read,
224
00:13:31,424 --> 00:13:36,862
"Whereas Eskimo Cola maintains
its own sovereign board of directors, not answerable..."
225
00:13:44,070 --> 00:13:45,059
Hello?
226
00:13:45,138 --> 00:13:46,696
Wade Ward, please.
227
00:13:46,772 --> 00:13:47,932
Well, he's not here.
228
00:13:48,007 --> 00:13:49,133
What time do you
expect him home?
229
00:13:49,876 --> 00:13:53,107
This is not his home.
It's my home. My name's Rockford.
230
00:13:53,179 --> 00:13:56,273
Oh, I see.
You're the client. I see what happened.
231
00:13:56,349 --> 00:13:59,216
I'm John Cooper
with the Corporation for Legal Research.
232
00:13:59,752 --> 00:14:02,744
Wade was in here today
and he put your phone number next to his name.
233
00:14:02,822 --> 00:14:04,881
I just want to review
some things with him.
234
00:14:04,957 --> 00:14:08,085
Yeah, well, since
he's having trouble with his own phone number,
235
00:14:08,161 --> 00:14:10,959
I'd sleep better
if you'd review things with me. Go ahead.
236
00:14:11,964 --> 00:14:14,865
Well, no, Mr. Rockford.
I really couldn't do that.
237
00:14:14,934 --> 00:14:19,496
My company just does
the research on a case and Wade's the attorney at record.
238
00:14:19,572 --> 00:14:24,168
Ethically, I can only discuss
the case with him, and he'll fill you in. Sorry.
239
00:14:27,413 --> 00:14:31,543
Corporation, Corporation,
Corporation.
240
00:14:32,418 --> 00:14:36,616
Corporation
for Legal Research.
241
00:14:36,923 --> 00:14:41,587
Research. Corporation
for Legal... Oh!
242
00:14:41,661 --> 00:14:45,825
3516, South Robertson
Boulevard, Beverly Hills.
243
00:15:18,064 --> 00:15:21,625
Fool. If this storm
develops as I hope,
244
00:15:21,701 --> 00:15:25,865
you will have plenty
to be afraid of before the night's over. Go on.
245
00:15:25,938 --> 00:15:27,200
It's nearly...
Hello?
246
00:15:28,708 --> 00:15:29,970
Yeah?
I'm Jim Rockford.
247
00:15:30,042 --> 00:15:32,510
I think you're the one
I spoke to on the phone.
248
00:15:32,578 --> 00:15:35,809
Oh? Oh, yeah,
yeah, yeah. John, John Cooper.
249
00:15:36,382 --> 00:15:38,407
She leave that
door unlocked?
250
00:15:38,484 --> 00:15:40,975
If her coffee doesn't kill me,
some neighborhood junkie will.
251
00:15:41,053 --> 00:15:43,248
In Beverly Hills
you have to expect that.
252
00:15:43,322 --> 00:15:44,789
This is Beverly Hills.
253
00:15:44,857 --> 00:15:48,486
Of course, Los Angeles is
across the street there.
254
00:15:48,561 --> 00:15:51,029
The border's that white line
down the middle of the road.
255
00:15:51,764 --> 00:15:54,358
The legal profession
is very snobbish.
256
00:15:54,433 --> 00:15:59,928
But most of our work is done
by phone, so our law clients never know the difference.
257
00:16:00,006 --> 00:16:02,804
Beverly Hills looks good
on a letterhead and it brings them in.
258
00:16:02,875 --> 00:16:05,537
Yeah. Where'd you study
marketing techniques?
259
00:16:05,611 --> 00:16:07,545
Midway at Pacific Ocean Park?
260
00:16:07,613 --> 00:16:09,638
Tell me you didn't let out
a little sob of gratitude
261
00:16:09,715 --> 00:16:12,377
when you saw a Beverly Hills
firm in your murder case.
262
00:16:19,458 --> 00:16:21,949
Yeah, I've heard about you
legal research firms.
263
00:16:22,028 --> 00:16:24,223
You hire out
to bona fide attorneys.
264
00:16:24,297 --> 00:16:27,425
You do the legwork,
you search precedent.
265
00:16:30,002 --> 00:16:32,061
You even prepare the briefs.
266
00:16:32,138 --> 00:16:36,507
It doesn't seem like it leaves
an awful lot for attorneys like Wade to do,
267
00:16:36,575 --> 00:16:42,104
but some of the heavy
theoretical groundwork and the cashing of checks.
268
00:16:43,215 --> 00:16:45,149
You have a problem
with Ward?
269
00:16:45,217 --> 00:16:50,519
Well, I was Beth Davenport's
client when she was with Harcourt and Lowe,
270
00:16:50,589 --> 00:16:53,285
and this guy
is no Beth Davenport.
271
00:16:53,359 --> 00:16:54,917
Everybody have to be
stamped the same?
272
00:16:55,695 --> 00:16:57,128
He's with the top
law firm in town.
273
00:16:57,196 --> 00:16:58,925
If Wade couldn't cut it,
he wouldn't be there.
274
00:16:59,365 --> 00:17:00,491
Now, I've told you,
Rockford,
275
00:17:00,566 --> 00:17:02,864
I can't discuss
the case with you. Simple as that.
276
00:17:03,002 --> 00:17:04,970
Coop?
277
00:17:05,037 --> 00:17:06,095
In here, Wade.
278
00:17:06,172 --> 00:17:08,732
Oh, boy, what a day.
279
00:17:08,808 --> 00:17:11,174
I just got out of
a dinner meeting at H&L.
280
00:17:11,243 --> 00:17:12,870
Started at 6:00.
281
00:17:12,945 --> 00:17:18,474
That miserable
US versus OI' Dan'I Boone. Boy, that has been a bear.
282
00:17:19,185 --> 00:17:20,447
Rockford.
283
00:17:21,220 --> 00:17:24,986
Wade, Mr. Rockford was
just asking to see the data,
284
00:17:25,057 --> 00:17:26,820
but I told him it was
impossible because...
285
00:17:26,892 --> 00:17:29,053
Sure, what the heck.
Let's all hear it.
286
00:17:29,128 --> 00:17:31,221
That way I won't have
to sit through it twice.
287
00:17:33,899 --> 00:17:37,858
Well, first of all, Nancy said
you'd asked for a summary of Utah versus Liggett,
288
00:17:37,937 --> 00:17:41,100
but as soon as I read
the case file, I figured she'd heard you wrong.
289
00:17:41,173 --> 00:17:42,572
What is it?
290
00:17:42,641 --> 00:17:44,233
Precedent.
291
00:17:44,310 --> 00:17:45,709
Judge held that
the homicide charge
292
00:17:45,778 --> 00:17:47,405
against the defendant,
Liggett,
293
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,471
should be dismissed
prior to the trial
294
00:17:49,548 --> 00:17:53,951
because he was defending
his home against repeated assault. Self-defense.
295
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,813
Isn't that how
the case went, Coop?
296
00:17:56,889 --> 00:17:58,982
Oh, yeah,
yeah. But...
297
00:17:59,825 --> 00:18:03,090
Well, let's say that's
the case and you do have a point, Ward.
298
00:18:03,162 --> 00:18:06,791
I'm not so sure that
Utah versus Liggett is the precedent you want to cite.
299
00:18:06,866 --> 00:18:09,562
We'll talk about that later.
300
00:18:09,635 --> 00:18:14,095
Now, one of our people
went out to the Conigliaro home to get an idea
301
00:18:14,173 --> 00:18:15,606
of what the party
was all about,
302
00:18:15,674 --> 00:18:19,303
but Conigliaro and his friend,
Mickey Long, refused to discuss it.
303
00:18:19,378 --> 00:18:21,209
They said that they
hope Rockford burns
304
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:22,975
and they wouldn't do anything
to help the defense.
305
00:18:23,048 --> 00:18:25,573
Hmm. That background would
have been important.
306
00:18:25,651 --> 00:18:26,913
But that's that.
307
00:18:26,986 --> 00:18:28,283
Hostile witnesses.
308
00:18:28,354 --> 00:18:32,017
Nothing you can do
to make them talk till you get them in court.
309
00:18:32,091 --> 00:18:33,490
You could
depose them.
310
00:18:33,893 --> 00:18:36,623
Au contraire,
you can't depose witnesses in a criminal case.
311
00:18:36,695 --> 00:18:38,185
What's the matter
with you, Coop?
312
00:18:38,264 --> 00:18:40,232
File a civil action
on Mr. Rockford's behalf.
313
00:18:40,299 --> 00:18:43,029
Sue Conigliaro and Long
for damages, destruction of property.
314
00:18:43,102 --> 00:18:44,501
And you can drop
the suit at anytime,
315
00:18:44,570 --> 00:18:46,367
but you'll still have their
sworn statements on record.
316
00:18:46,439 --> 00:18:47,599
Now, you'll have
a time problem,
317
00:18:47,673 --> 00:18:51,609
so you might have to go in
under Title 20-17 A of the Code of Civil Procedure.
318
00:18:51,677 --> 00:18:55,875
Pardon me, Coop, but that's
just the kind of thinking that got you disbarred, buddy.
319
00:19:00,019 --> 00:19:04,820
Heck, Coop, I'm sorry
I let the old skeleton tumble out of the closet.
320
00:19:06,325 --> 00:19:11,763
Okay, okay, I'll get ready
to start an action on Long and Coniglio.
321
00:19:11,831 --> 00:19:13,696
It's Conigliaro.
322
00:19:25,077 --> 00:19:26,806
Mind if I join you?
323
00:19:27,346 --> 00:19:29,940
Well, I don't
suppose this is just a coincidence.
324
00:19:30,015 --> 00:19:33,542
No, no, I followed you.
I might as well cop out, to that anyway.
325
00:19:33,619 --> 00:19:35,917
Hmm, but not to
second-degree murder.
326
00:19:37,089 --> 00:19:38,954
Mr. Cooper,
I watched you up there.
327
00:19:39,024 --> 00:19:43,961
You seem to have more going
for you than just, "Oh, boys" and "bears."
328
00:19:44,029 --> 00:19:48,056
But it's safe to say
I have some deep concerns about Wade Ward.
329
00:19:48,133 --> 00:19:51,591
So, if you were me,
would you get a different attorney
330
00:19:51,670 --> 00:19:55,766
or do you think
changing horses would be dangerous now?
331
00:19:56,509 --> 00:19:59,637
That's something
you should talk over with your family and friends.
332
00:19:59,712 --> 00:20:01,043
That's a personal problem.
333
00:20:01,113 --> 00:20:03,274
A true diplomat.
334
00:20:03,349 --> 00:20:06,375
There's just my dad,
and he knows zip about the law.
335
00:20:06,452 --> 00:20:09,717
He thinks nolo contendere
is a Mexican bantamweight.
336
00:20:11,290 --> 00:20:15,192
Mr. Cooper,
I could be facing a life sentence.
337
00:20:21,433 --> 00:20:24,994
Hypothetically, now,
one might start shopping around for other counsel.
338
00:20:25,070 --> 00:20:30,633
One might obtain, well,
from someone like me, a good list of names.
339
00:20:30,709 --> 00:20:33,507
But at the same time,
you shouldn't sell Wade short.
340
00:20:33,579 --> 00:20:35,444
For one thing,
he's familiar with your case.
341
00:20:35,514 --> 00:20:39,075
Mmm-hmm. Just the names
of the principals and the nature of the crime
342
00:20:39,151 --> 00:20:40,448
he's a little shaky on.
343
00:20:40,519 --> 00:20:41,986
What's yours?
344
00:20:42,054 --> 00:20:43,043
Oh...
345
00:20:43,122 --> 00:20:44,851
Well, he feels
like celebrating.
346
00:20:44,924 --> 00:20:46,915
Give him an
OI' Dan'I Boone, neat.
347
00:20:49,562 --> 00:20:51,393
Everyone's a comedian.
348
00:20:52,464 --> 00:20:54,455
Look, your preliminary
is only days away.
349
00:20:54,533 --> 00:20:56,660
And I'll be on the thing,
and I'll work with Wade
350
00:20:56,735 --> 00:20:58,726
and see if maybe I can
keep him from derailing
351
00:20:58,804 --> 00:21:00,772
when we hit the junction
at Centerville.
352
00:21:00,839 --> 00:21:03,808
If you're expecting
him to derail, why are you protecting him?
353
00:21:03,876 --> 00:21:06,936
I'm not, not really.
And I don't think he will derail.
354
00:21:07,012 --> 00:21:11,608
And even if he does,
you could allege that Wade was incompetent counsel.
355
00:21:11,684 --> 00:21:13,982
That even places some
sympathy on your side.
356
00:21:14,053 --> 00:21:17,420
Qualified witnesses would be
forced to testify to that.
357
00:21:17,489 --> 00:21:18,786
Would you?
358
00:21:18,857 --> 00:21:22,657
Would you testify that
he was watching horror movies when we had our meeting?
359
00:21:22,728 --> 00:21:24,491
If it came to that.
360
00:21:25,431 --> 00:21:26,693
It's not bad.
361
00:21:26,765 --> 00:21:29,666
It's a little iffy,
but it covers all the bases.
362
00:21:30,502 --> 00:21:32,629
Now, there's something else.
363
00:21:33,138 --> 00:21:35,265
Why did you get disbarred?
364
00:21:35,341 --> 00:21:36,638
It's a long story.
365
00:21:36,709 --> 00:21:40,372
Is that why you've got
your degree hanging upside down on your wall?
366
00:21:41,981 --> 00:21:44,006
My idea of
a private joke.
367
00:21:44,683 --> 00:21:46,275
Well, maybe this
is a dumb question,
368
00:21:46,352 --> 00:21:50,288
but whatever it was
that got you disbarred, were you right?
369
00:21:51,657 --> 00:21:53,887
Maybe you noticed
the question of right and wrong
370
00:21:53,959 --> 00:21:55,893
is not within the purview
of the law,
371
00:21:55,961 --> 00:21:58,589
only the question
of legal and illegal.
372
00:21:58,664 --> 00:21:59,995
Yeah, does seem strange.
373
00:22:00,065 --> 00:22:01,623
Don't it, though?
374
00:22:03,235 --> 00:22:07,137
Bartender, I think I got him
in a celebrating mood now.
375
00:22:07,206 --> 00:22:09,538
He'll switch
to OI' Dan'I Boone.
376
00:22:13,045 --> 00:22:14,342
...so I says,
"Hey, sweet cheeks,
377
00:22:14,413 --> 00:22:16,574
"you can't prove
I'm the one fathered the kid.
378
00:22:16,849 --> 00:22:20,615
"And besides,
you don't want it, have an abortion."
379
00:22:20,686 --> 00:22:22,517
She says,
"It had to be you. You the one
380
00:22:22,588 --> 00:22:23,816
"who pushed me
down on the bed."
381
00:22:23,889 --> 00:22:25,652
I says,
"Hey, go rotate.
382
00:22:26,125 --> 00:22:28,423
"I ain't gonna pay you
no money to support no brat.
383
00:22:28,494 --> 00:22:30,621
"I'd rather
smoke paraquat."
384
00:22:30,696 --> 00:22:32,129
Conigliaro and Long?
385
00:22:32,197 --> 00:22:35,030
It sure ain't
The Two Gentlemen of Verona.
386
00:22:38,037 --> 00:22:41,131
Now, in your statements
to the police,
387
00:22:41,206 --> 00:22:45,336
you two gentlemen averred
that you did not personally know the victim, Mac Amodeus.
388
00:22:45,411 --> 00:22:49,211
Remembering you're under oath,
I ask you now to be absolutely certain that this is true.
389
00:22:49,281 --> 00:22:52,580
It's true.
It was a open house, you know?
390
00:22:52,651 --> 00:22:56,143
We put up signs
on telephone poles, and all kind of people come.
391
00:22:56,221 --> 00:22:57,848
We got no control
on who comes.
392
00:22:57,923 --> 00:22:59,584
Can you state that
beyond any doubt?
393
00:22:59,658 --> 00:23:01,489
Any glimmer or shred
of uncertainty?
394
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,824
Beyond any vague
or shadowy...
395
00:23:06,465 --> 00:23:07,693
Yeah.
396
00:23:08,801 --> 00:23:10,701
Oh, tell Sumner
I'll be right out.
397
00:23:13,005 --> 00:23:15,132
Coop, it's OI' Dan'I Boone.
398
00:23:16,108 --> 00:23:18,338
Could you keep
everything warm?
399
00:23:23,849 --> 00:23:25,077
Do either one of you
gentlemen know
400
00:23:25,184 --> 00:23:28,312
a woman named Dawn Nodzak
from Redondo Beach?
401
00:23:28,387 --> 00:23:31,413
The place was packed.
I don't know this broad. Why?
402
00:23:31,490 --> 00:23:34,118
Mac Amodeus was living
with this Dawn Nodzak,
403
00:23:34,193 --> 00:23:35,922
and I was just going
into the background.
404
00:23:35,994 --> 00:23:37,962
I wonder if you might
be able to add anything to that.
405
00:23:38,030 --> 00:23:41,397
Hey, what are we,
the Encyclopedia Britannicus?
406
00:23:41,467 --> 00:23:44,027
Look, are you gonna sue us?
Sue us, or get off the pot.
407
00:23:44,103 --> 00:23:47,766
Who started the beef
between you and Mr. Rockford, the one Mr. Amodeus was in?
408
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:51,640
Him, Rockford, and it wasn't
the first time, you know.
409
00:23:51,710 --> 00:23:53,701
He likes to swing
on people.
410
00:23:53,779 --> 00:23:56,748
That's a lie. I never
actually traded punches with either one of them.
411
00:23:56,815 --> 00:23:59,978
Bull you didn't. What about
the other day? Tuesday.
412
00:24:00,052 --> 00:24:01,451
When the window got broke?
413
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,512
No one got hit.
That's a flat out lie.
414
00:24:04,590 --> 00:24:08,287
You hit me, creep.
I still got the egg, right here.
415
00:24:08,360 --> 00:24:12,490
Let the record show
he pointed to a place beneath his right ear.
416
00:24:12,564 --> 00:24:15,465
You told the cops I hit you
on the right side of the jaw
417
00:24:15,534 --> 00:24:18,799
while you were standing up
to me like John Garfield.
418
00:24:18,871 --> 00:24:20,634
That's why the cops
wouldn't believe me
419
00:24:20,706 --> 00:24:23,470
when I told them
about the bruises on my right hand.
420
00:24:23,542 --> 00:24:27,808
But now that they see
that I was behind you, running after you,
421
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,973
it'll be a
different story.
422
00:24:53,806 --> 00:24:58,937
The night was clear,
and the moon was yellow
423
00:24:59,011 --> 00:25:03,209
And the leaves
come tumbling down
424
00:25:03,849 --> 00:25:05,714
Hi, Joe.
425
00:25:05,784 --> 00:25:08,116
Hey, Giuseppe.
426
00:25:08,187 --> 00:25:11,213
Leave me alone,
you bums. I mean it.
427
00:25:27,172 --> 00:25:30,141
A two hour drive
to Redondo Beach is a long way to go.
428
00:25:30,209 --> 00:25:32,677
I just hope we get something
from this Dawn Nodzak.
429
00:25:32,744 --> 00:25:34,371
She was living with
the late Mac Amodeus.
430
00:25:34,446 --> 00:25:36,346
Let's face it,
we haven't got much else.
431
00:25:36,415 --> 00:25:37,905
There's her place.
432
00:25:37,983 --> 00:25:40,508
I would have thought
Mac Amodeus lived in a garage.
433
00:25:43,622 --> 00:25:49,185
That license plate.
I think I know who owns that. Artie Nodzak.
434
00:25:49,294 --> 00:25:51,592
Pop Warner type
big shot up in LA.
435
00:25:51,663 --> 00:25:54,223
Bunch of porno houses,
string of hookers,
436
00:25:54,299 --> 00:25:56,767
horses out at
Bell Meadows Raceway.
437
00:25:58,070 --> 00:26:00,300
Yeah, that's Artie Nodzak,
all right.
438
00:26:00,372 --> 00:26:04,365
The guy that's with him
is named Georgie something, Georgie Ryan.
439
00:26:12,718 --> 00:26:14,015
Would you
like some coffee?
440
00:26:14,086 --> 00:26:15,417
No, thank you,
Mrs. Nodzak.
441
00:26:15,487 --> 00:26:16,545
Miss.
442
00:26:16,622 --> 00:26:18,590
Oh, wasn't that your husband
we just saw leaving?
443
00:26:18,657 --> 00:26:22,320
The reason I'm asking
is we were both admiring that handsome car.
444
00:26:22,394 --> 00:26:25,420
Oh, that. That was
my brother, Artie.
445
00:26:25,497 --> 00:26:28,864
He'll be glad to
hear it. That car's his whole personality.
446
00:26:31,737 --> 00:26:34,604
Mr. Amodeus was a plumber?
447
00:26:34,706 --> 00:26:37,266
Now, we understand that
you lived here together.
448
00:26:37,342 --> 00:26:40,038
Did you accompany him
to the party the night he died?
449
00:26:42,681 --> 00:26:45,707
I just can't think why anyone
would want to kill Mac.
450
00:26:45,784 --> 00:26:47,718
He was really a gentle guy.
451
00:26:47,786 --> 00:26:50,186
He was always worried about
the whales and things.
452
00:26:50,255 --> 00:26:53,918
He was worried about them,
like, what would happen to them.
453
00:26:53,992 --> 00:26:58,588
He had this record of
whales singing to each other and...
454
00:26:58,664 --> 00:27:01,690
Like, when he'd get ripped,
455
00:27:01,767 --> 00:27:05,533
he'd put it on,
and sometimes he'd even cry.
456
00:27:05,771 --> 00:27:07,739
Whales singing to each other.
457
00:27:07,806 --> 00:27:09,797
I mean, that really
blew him away.
458
00:27:11,209 --> 00:27:13,006
That's the kind
of guy he was.
459
00:27:14,313 --> 00:27:18,340
Excuse me, but how did
you get the bruises?
460
00:27:19,384 --> 00:27:22,353
Oh, I'm such a klutz.
461
00:27:22,421 --> 00:27:26,084
I was going down
to the laundry room and I fell down the stairs.
462
00:27:27,993 --> 00:27:29,392
Did Mac do that to you?
463
00:27:32,831 --> 00:27:35,231
Why, Dawn?
What happened?
464
00:27:35,300 --> 00:27:37,234
Nothing special.
465
00:27:37,302 --> 00:27:40,066
I said something
that got him mad.
466
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:45,171
He would kind of do
this once in a while.
467
00:27:45,243 --> 00:27:47,268
That's how come I didn't
go to the party with him.
468
00:27:47,346 --> 00:27:48,335
My face.
469
00:27:49,181 --> 00:27:52,014
Oh, he wasn't really
violent or anything.
470
00:27:53,251 --> 00:27:54,741
My theory is...
471
00:27:55,687 --> 00:27:59,623
Well, actually,
Mac was a real poetic guy.
472
00:28:00,726 --> 00:28:06,562
He was always talking about
signing up on the Calypso with Jacques Cousteau,
473
00:28:06,631 --> 00:28:10,158
or writing down some
of the lyrics in his head and selling them to a band.
474
00:28:10,235 --> 00:28:12,135
He knew a guy
who knew the Eagles.
475
00:28:12,771 --> 00:28:16,400
But that's a full-time job,
and he had the plumbing thing.
476
00:28:17,175 --> 00:28:21,805
He was really a frustrated
poet and ecologist I think.
477
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:23,871
And that's how come
he used to blow up.
478
00:28:23,949 --> 00:28:25,974
That's my theory, anyway.
479
00:28:26,051 --> 00:28:30,886
I assume that your brother
Artie knew that Mac was beating you up.
480
00:28:30,956 --> 00:28:34,722
Yeah. Yell, yell, yell,
all the time.
481
00:28:34,793 --> 00:28:36,090
But what did he know?
482
00:28:36,161 --> 00:28:37,150
Right.
483
00:28:38,497 --> 00:28:43,434
Listen, if you want to talk
some more, you'll have to come back later, okay?
484
00:28:43,502 --> 00:28:46,596
I'm kind of
co-chairperson at this women's group.
485
00:28:46,671 --> 00:28:49,037
We're having a
consciousness-raising session.
486
00:28:49,107 --> 00:28:51,268
I gotta make
coffee and all.
487
00:28:52,244 --> 00:28:54,303
I really need
this meeting.
488
00:28:54,379 --> 00:28:57,837
I think it'll help get
Mac's death out of my mind for a while.
489
00:28:59,217 --> 00:29:01,185
That's my theory, anyway.
490
00:29:02,454 --> 00:29:04,012
I hope Dawn
likes this album.
491
00:29:04,089 --> 00:29:07,320
Like, who needs
heavy metal when they're experiencing grief?
492
00:29:08,727 --> 00:29:10,718
I'd say we came up
with some interesting stuff.
493
00:29:10,796 --> 00:29:12,286
You do, huh?
494
00:29:12,364 --> 00:29:14,059
Mostly whales
and a singing act.
495
00:29:15,434 --> 00:29:16,833
But I agree.
496
00:29:16,902 --> 00:29:19,632
Dawn Nodzak sleeping
with Mac Amodeus,
497
00:29:19,704 --> 00:29:21,501
and he's whacking her
around for recreation.
498
00:29:21,573 --> 00:29:23,097
Now, Dawn's brother
gets wind of this,
499
00:29:23,175 --> 00:29:26,008
so he sends two apes
to dance on Mac's head.
500
00:29:26,078 --> 00:29:28,911
That's my theory, anyway.
Now, what's yours?
501
00:29:29,848 --> 00:29:31,338
I think we should
run it past Wade.
502
00:29:31,416 --> 00:29:32,849
Of course,
it's not something you want to throw out
503
00:29:32,918 --> 00:29:34,783
at the preliminary, but...
Well, why not?
504
00:29:34,853 --> 00:29:37,879
Well, suppose
you do go to trial, you're blowing your strategy.
505
00:29:37,956 --> 00:29:39,821
The DA is lying in the weeds
just waiting for you.
506
00:29:39,891 --> 00:29:41,518
He should kick it out
at the preliminary.
507
00:29:41,593 --> 00:29:44,118
I don't want to even have
to worry about a trial.
508
00:29:44,196 --> 00:29:46,096
Look, don't worry.
I talked to Wade.
509
00:29:46,164 --> 00:29:48,064
He says he's trim.
He feels he's ready.
510
00:29:48,133 --> 00:29:49,225
Yeah, to cop
to second.
511
00:29:49,301 --> 00:29:52,566
Wade Ward was brought
into that firm by Gene Lowe himself.
512
00:29:52,637 --> 00:29:56,664
Beth told me Gene Lowe
died at 42 years old of a heart attack.
513
00:29:56,741 --> 00:29:58,504
Brought on by worry.
514
00:30:01,913 --> 00:30:07,408
Your Honor,
the defense would like to present in its behalf
515
00:30:07,486 --> 00:30:12,287
a sworn deposition taken at
civil proceeding number 16345
516
00:30:12,357 --> 00:30:16,293
in which Mr. Eugene Conigliaro
contradicts his own testimony
517
00:30:16,361 --> 00:30:18,989
regarding the injury
to Mr. Rockford's hand.
518
00:30:22,868 --> 00:30:25,359
Yeah, that was a prior fight
that caused the bruises.
519
00:30:25,437 --> 00:30:26,927
He lied.
520
00:30:27,005 --> 00:30:29,997
Well, it's possible
Mr. Rockford's hand was injured at a prior time.
521
00:30:30,075 --> 00:30:32,839
However, that does not
exclude the possibility of brass knuckles, chains,
522
00:30:32,911 --> 00:30:34,378
or other mechanical devices.
523
00:30:34,446 --> 00:30:35,504
Yeah, but...
524
00:30:35,580 --> 00:30:37,707
So stipulated,
Mr. Cowan.
525
00:30:37,782 --> 00:30:39,647
If the court will
allow me a moment?
526
00:30:43,288 --> 00:30:45,483
I'm in trouble, Coop.
That's all I had.
527
00:30:45,557 --> 00:30:47,957
And this Cowan
isn't the hamburger I remember.
528
00:30:48,026 --> 00:30:49,391
You bet you're in trouble.
529
00:30:49,461 --> 00:30:52,862
Recall Conigliaro and Long
and go after their testimony.
530
00:30:52,931 --> 00:30:54,159
But how?
531
00:30:54,232 --> 00:30:56,325
I mean, nobody's denying
the threats were made.
532
00:30:56,401 --> 00:30:58,835
Get a pail
and start bailing.
533
00:30:58,904 --> 00:31:00,428
The party, Wade,
the party.
534
00:31:00,505 --> 00:31:02,735
Noise, dope, confusion.
535
00:31:02,807 --> 00:31:03,967
Was all that
going on?
536
00:31:07,312 --> 00:31:11,248
Mr. Long, how much narcotics
had you ingested on the night of the party?
537
00:31:11,316 --> 00:31:13,443
I didn't use
no narcotics.
538
00:31:13,518 --> 00:31:14,507
I never do.
539
00:31:16,021 --> 00:31:19,457
That is, I'm not
a narcotics user of any sort.
540
00:31:19,524 --> 00:31:23,290
Were you ever arrested
in the state of New Jersey for possession of narcotics?
541
00:31:26,364 --> 00:31:28,662
Yeah, I think
I was. Once.
542
00:31:28,967 --> 00:31:31,834
I submit you were
under the influence of narcotics, sir.
543
00:31:31,903 --> 00:31:33,495
A mammoth party
544
00:31:33,572 --> 00:31:36,063
given to celebrate
the extension of unemployment benefits
545
00:31:36,141 --> 00:31:39,736
by the State of New Jersey
to your colleague, Mr. Conigliaro.
546
00:31:39,811 --> 00:31:42,837
I submit you were
highly narcotized,
547
00:31:42,914 --> 00:31:45,439
and I could produce witnesses
who would so stipulate.
548
00:31:45,517 --> 00:31:50,477
No. We drank beer,
that's all. Me and Eugene.
549
00:31:50,555 --> 00:31:54,013
In fact, I remember
we split a case, but no dope.
550
00:31:54,092 --> 00:31:56,083
So, half a case of beer.
551
00:31:56,161 --> 00:31:59,722
Twelve bottles, if I remember
my fraternity days correctly.
552
00:31:59,798 --> 00:32:02,460
Boogie-woogie music
thundering around your ears.
553
00:32:02,534 --> 00:32:07,437
And yet, and yet, you managed
to hear every threat,
554
00:32:07,505 --> 00:32:13,535
to get every nuance of hate
in Mr. Rockford's low voice, as Mr. Conigliaro called it.
555
00:32:14,846 --> 00:32:16,245
That's all.
556
00:32:19,918 --> 00:32:21,852
I have no
cross examination,
557
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,754
but I would like to call
Mr. Joseph Rockford to the stand, please.
558
00:32:27,359 --> 00:32:31,955
Now, I'm going to take you
to two days before the party in question.
559
00:32:32,030 --> 00:32:33,861
A window had been broken.
560
00:32:33,932 --> 00:32:36,560
Now, according
to Mr. Conigliaro,
561
00:32:36,635 --> 00:32:38,626
your son said to him
at that time,
562
00:32:38,703 --> 00:32:40,830
"I'd like to kill you guys."
563
00:32:41,940 --> 00:32:43,168
Did he say that?
564
00:32:43,241 --> 00:32:44,902
Well, I mean...
565
00:32:44,976 --> 00:32:46,307
Oh, brother.
566
00:32:46,378 --> 00:32:47,367
What I mean is...
567
00:32:47,445 --> 00:32:49,470
No, that's all.
Thank you.
568
00:32:50,482 --> 00:32:53,076
You may
step down, Mr. Rockford.
569
00:32:55,854 --> 00:32:59,881
Your Honor, if I may,
a great deal has been heard here in camera
570
00:32:59,958 --> 00:33:01,926
regarding the rancorous
feeling existing
571
00:33:01,993 --> 00:33:04,154
between the Rockfords,
pere et fils
572
00:33:04,629 --> 00:33:07,894
and Mr. Long,
Mr. Conigliaro, and their party guests.
573
00:33:07,966 --> 00:33:11,402
But I feel this court
should be aware of another grievance
574
00:33:11,469 --> 00:33:14,336
against the deceased
Mr. Amodeus.
575
00:33:14,406 --> 00:33:17,842
If need be,
I can call one Dawn Nodzak
576
00:33:17,909 --> 00:33:22,346
to testify that Mac Amodeus
had done her repeated bodily injury.
577
00:33:22,414 --> 00:33:24,780
Miss Nodzak is the sister
of an underworld figure
578
00:33:24,849 --> 00:33:28,182
with a record of violent
crime, Mr. Arthur Nodzak.
579
00:33:28,253 --> 00:33:30,721
I leave it to the court
to draw its own conclusions.
580
00:33:30,789 --> 00:33:35,021
And I'd like
to remind the court
581
00:33:35,093 --> 00:33:36,754
of its option
at this juncture
582
00:33:36,828 --> 00:33:39,490
to dismiss the case
on a point of legal precedent.
583
00:33:39,564 --> 00:33:44,126
Certainly, we have heard
instance after instance of pillage and harassment
584
00:33:44,202 --> 00:33:48,195
by Messrs. Long and
Conigliaro against the home and person of Joseph Rockford.
585
00:33:48,273 --> 00:33:50,366
They've even admitted
such themselves.
586
00:33:50,442 --> 00:33:53,036
Present in the Magna Carta
is the guarantee...
587
00:33:53,111 --> 00:33:55,375
Cite your precedent,
Mr. Ward.
588
00:33:56,014 --> 00:33:58,380
Utah versus Liggett,
Your Honor.
589
00:33:58,450 --> 00:34:01,214
In that matter,
the judge dismissed the case,
590
00:34:01,286 --> 00:34:03,186
holding the defendant
acted in self-defense
591
00:34:03,254 --> 00:34:05,449
when he killed two men
of a party of several who were trying...
592
00:34:05,523 --> 00:34:08,981
Utah v. Liggett refers
to Indians, does it not?
593
00:34:09,060 --> 00:34:12,120
Wasn't the Liggett home
under attack by Comanches?
594
00:34:12,197 --> 00:34:16,634
I mean, wasn't a shed
completely razed?
595
00:34:16,701 --> 00:34:21,263
Wasn't the limb
of a family member completely blown off?
596
00:34:21,339 --> 00:34:22,533
Yes.
597
00:34:22,607 --> 00:34:25,770
Mr. Ward,
why don't you give me a break?
598
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,646
I find that there
is sufficient evidence
599
00:34:31,716 --> 00:34:33,183
to indicate that
the defendant,
600
00:34:33,251 --> 00:34:36,015
James Rockford,
did commit the crime,
601
00:34:36,087 --> 00:34:40,421
and I hereby bind him
over to Department Four of the Superior Court
602
00:34:40,492 --> 00:34:45,759
on July 9th
for arraignment and for subsequent proceedings.
603
00:34:53,838 --> 00:34:56,102
He's not the same man
he was five years ago, Jim.
604
00:34:56,174 --> 00:34:57,300
Look, I feel
personally responsible...
605
00:34:57,375 --> 00:34:58,865
Coop, forget
about that for now.
606
00:34:58,943 --> 00:35:01,343
Pay attention.
We got a definite tie up.
607
00:35:01,413 --> 00:35:05,850
Now, Georgie Ryan,
that's Artie Nodzak's muscle, he was in that courtroom.
608
00:35:05,917 --> 00:35:07,817
Nodzak wants to keep
an eye on my case.
609
00:35:07,886 --> 00:35:10,354
Because if I'm headed
for state college,
610
00:35:10,422 --> 00:35:12,822
he knows he's
in the clear.
611
00:35:12,891 --> 00:35:14,688
I'll tell you
something else weird.
612
00:35:14,759 --> 00:35:17,057
The whole time
Ryan was in the room,
613
00:35:17,128 --> 00:35:20,529
Eugene and Mickey Long, too,
were looking in the back trying to get his eye.
614
00:35:20,598 --> 00:35:21,587
Oh, yeah?
615
00:35:21,666 --> 00:35:22,792
Yeah.
616
00:35:23,535 --> 00:35:25,435
You thinking
about a contract?
617
00:35:25,503 --> 00:35:27,164
Artie Nodzak pays
these two salamis
618
00:35:27,238 --> 00:35:29,468
to croak a guy who's
beating up his sister.
619
00:35:31,209 --> 00:35:32,471
Pie in the sky?
620
00:35:32,544 --> 00:35:33,841
Blueberry.
621
00:35:34,546 --> 00:35:36,036
Would they be stupid
enough to make a hit
622
00:35:36,114 --> 00:35:37,843
and then leave the body
in front of their house?
623
00:35:40,885 --> 00:35:42,614
Yeah, I guess they would.
624
00:35:45,089 --> 00:35:49,185
You know, Jim,
Nodzak is a functioning adult.
625
00:35:49,260 --> 00:35:52,320
And he'd pay those two
to make a hit for him?
626
00:35:52,397 --> 00:35:53,625
And they wouldn't have
done it for revenge
627
00:35:53,698 --> 00:35:56,166
because Dawn told us that
she didn't even know them.
628
00:35:56,234 --> 00:35:58,702
Yeah, well, I'm just looking
for a connection, Coop.
629
00:35:58,770 --> 00:36:01,000
Do you remember what
Eugene was talking about
630
00:36:01,072 --> 00:36:03,404
the day of the deposition
out in the hall?
631
00:36:03,475 --> 00:36:05,102
Some girl he got
pregnant. So what?
632
00:36:05,176 --> 00:36:07,940
Yeah, well,
it's straw-grasping time, right?
633
00:36:08,012 --> 00:36:10,173
I just remember that
when we went to see Dawn,
634
00:36:10,248 --> 00:36:11,977
there were these two
young women, remember,
635
00:36:12,050 --> 00:36:15,349
that went in to see her on a
consciousness-raising session.
636
00:36:15,420 --> 00:36:16,614
And one was pregnant.
637
00:36:16,688 --> 00:36:17,746
Right.
638
00:36:17,822 --> 00:36:20,416
Jim, I think the
California Obstetric Society
639
00:36:20,492 --> 00:36:22,357
could give you figures
showing that in any one week
640
00:36:22,427 --> 00:36:23,860
there could be
several pregnancies.
641
00:36:23,928 --> 00:36:26,590
Yeah, I told you,
I'm just looking for a connection.
642
00:36:26,664 --> 00:36:29,360
Who knows,
maybe poor taste in men is it.
643
00:36:29,434 --> 00:36:32,733
Eugene and Mac are both cut
from the same bolt of cloth.
644
00:36:32,804 --> 00:36:35,705
If you're going to go out
with them, you're going to need consciousness-raising.
645
00:36:35,773 --> 00:36:38,867
Either that or
a helmet and shovel.
646
00:36:38,943 --> 00:36:42,310
Boy, we're so far off
from the murder, we're in a different time zone.
647
00:36:42,380 --> 00:36:44,541
We start off with Eugene,
Mickey and Artie Nodzak.
648
00:36:44,616 --> 00:36:46,948
I think it's worth trying
to find the pregnant lady.
649
00:36:47,018 --> 00:36:49,043
Maybe that women's group
can give us her name.
650
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:51,020
Okay, but I'll tell
you out front,
651
00:36:51,089 --> 00:36:53,421
the only part of this I can
really buy is Artie Nodzak.
652
00:36:53,491 --> 00:36:56,051
And I know a guy
like that's got to have too much street smarts
653
00:36:56,127 --> 00:36:58,527
to hire Conigliaro and Long.
654
00:36:58,596 --> 00:36:59,585
Way too much smarts.
655
00:37:09,374 --> 00:37:13,003
The men's can is the same
as in a regular restaurant.
656
00:37:13,077 --> 00:37:14,772
Well, what are
we gonna do?
657
00:37:14,846 --> 00:37:18,805
I mean, if I gotta
eat raw fish, I'm gonna ralph right in his lap.
658
00:37:18,883 --> 00:37:22,683
I wish he'd picked
Vito's Little Napoli or a steakhouse.
659
00:37:22,754 --> 00:37:24,585
Oh, here he is.
660
00:37:27,458 --> 00:37:31,417
Hey, Mr. Nodzak.
Hey, over here. Mr. Nodzak, over here.
661
00:37:43,641 --> 00:37:46,872
Drink, Mr. Nodzak?
We're having amaretto and cream.
662
00:37:46,945 --> 00:37:48,913
It's a nice place.
663
00:37:48,980 --> 00:37:52,211
I almost went over
to Japan when I was in the airborne,
664
00:37:52,283 --> 00:37:53,807
but then they give me
a section eight...
665
00:37:53,885 --> 00:37:56,217
Hey, so let's hear it.
666
00:37:56,287 --> 00:37:58,084
The guy who works for me at
the track says you told him
667
00:37:58,156 --> 00:38:01,284
I should know
who did me a big favor in the sister department.
668
00:38:01,359 --> 00:38:03,623
You know, for a week,
I didn't believe it.
669
00:38:03,695 --> 00:38:06,163
Let's just say,
Mr. Nodzak,
670
00:38:06,230 --> 00:38:10,189
that it was me and Mickey
who helped a certain party
671
00:38:10,268 --> 00:38:12,930
who was nothing but trouble
cross the river.
672
00:38:14,105 --> 00:38:16,699
You killed
Mac Amodeus? Why?
673
00:38:16,774 --> 00:38:20,767
Because this scoongell
was nothing but a thorn in your ear, am I right?
674
00:38:20,845 --> 00:38:23,040
It would do us grave honor,
Mr. Nodzak,
675
00:38:23,114 --> 00:38:25,309
if you would consider
this thing which has been done
676
00:38:25,383 --> 00:38:28,216
as a token of respect
from Eugene and me to you.
677
00:38:28,286 --> 00:38:30,447
Hey, Mickey, you mind?
678
00:38:30,521 --> 00:38:33,422
Now, what my associate
says is true, Mr. Nodzak.
679
00:38:33,491 --> 00:38:36,460
But in addition to that,
it's sort of our way of saying,
680
00:38:36,527 --> 00:38:40,190
"Hey, here's a couple
of guys ain't afraid to go all the way.
681
00:38:40,264 --> 00:38:42,630
"Here's a couple of guys
got their sunroofs down,
682
00:38:42,700 --> 00:38:44,827
"got their diamonds
in the back.
683
00:38:44,902 --> 00:38:47,803
"Couple of guys you can
entrust with your whole thing there."
684
00:38:47,872 --> 00:38:49,305
You idiots.
685
00:38:51,309 --> 00:38:52,367
Excuse me?
686
00:38:52,443 --> 00:38:55,606
Who asked you?
Who asked you to croak that zero, huh?
687
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,376
Nobody. We done it
on our own.
688
00:38:58,449 --> 00:39:01,543
We heard he was
gonging on your sister and that ain't right.
689
00:39:01,619 --> 00:39:04,213
Ah! So, in other words,
you did me a favor.
690
00:39:04,288 --> 00:39:08,019
And now I'm gonna repay
you by giving you a job or a piece of my action.
691
00:39:08,092 --> 00:39:10,458
No, no, not a piece
of the action.
692
00:39:10,528 --> 00:39:12,018
Not right away,
but we did...
693
00:39:12,096 --> 00:39:14,121
Hey, what do you think
this is? A movie?
694
00:39:14,198 --> 00:39:15,927
And I'm some guy
who's got cotton stuffed in his cheeks
695
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:17,968
and goes around mumbling
and passing out favors?
696
00:39:18,036 --> 00:39:20,231
Do you have any concept
of what you guys did?
697
00:39:20,304 --> 00:39:21,965
Who looks good
for this murder, huh?
698
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,600
A guy from Malibu,
Jerry Rockford.
699
00:39:24,676 --> 00:39:26,837
Oh, is that how
you planned it? To hang it on Rockford?
700
00:39:26,911 --> 00:39:28,071
No.
701
00:39:28,146 --> 00:39:32,549
You wanna know the truth,
we were kind of surprised when the pigs busted him for it.
702
00:39:32,617 --> 00:39:33,879
But what the hell, huh?
703
00:39:33,951 --> 00:39:37,387
As they say,
you don't look inside the Trojan horse.
704
00:39:37,455 --> 00:39:41,551
Hey, pinhead,
supposing the charge against Rockford doesn't hold, huh?
705
00:39:41,626 --> 00:39:43,719
You know who's
on the hook? Me.
706
00:39:43,795 --> 00:39:46,229
I got the connections,
the motive, the whole shot.
707
00:39:46,297 --> 00:39:48,356
You know, my name
came up in court today.
708
00:39:50,501 --> 00:39:52,662
Well, look,
why don't we order?
709
00:39:52,737 --> 00:39:55,763
Maybe we'll all feel a lot
better if we eat some rice or fish or something.
710
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:57,102
You know, I'm gonna
promise you something.
711
00:39:57,175 --> 00:39:59,234
Now, I'm not going
to stand for no murder heat.
712
00:39:59,310 --> 00:40:02,643
You creeps better hope
that this charge sticks on Rockford.
713
00:40:02,714 --> 00:40:05,308
Otherwise, and I don't care
how it looks image-wise,
714
00:40:05,383 --> 00:40:07,044
I'm bringing you both
in to the police.
715
00:40:07,118 --> 00:40:10,576
And if I bring you in
on a roller board, it's all the same to the cops.
716
00:40:10,655 --> 00:40:12,748
Which is exactly
what I'm gonna do,
717
00:40:12,824 --> 00:40:16,055
just because of
the aggravation factor I feel here.
718
00:40:24,235 --> 00:40:25,759
We killed a guy
for nothing.
719
00:40:28,639 --> 00:40:30,869
I ain't never
gonna get ahead.
720
00:40:31,542 --> 00:40:33,601
What do you
gotta do?
721
00:40:33,678 --> 00:40:35,168
It ain't happening
for me in Jersey.
722
00:40:35,246 --> 00:40:38,010
I come out here,
I'm still in the toilet, looking out.
723
00:40:40,451 --> 00:40:42,817
I see it happening
for other guys.
724
00:40:43,755 --> 00:40:45,950
I mean, what do
you gotta do?
725
00:40:48,593 --> 00:40:50,720
It should have been
someone we hated.
726
00:40:55,533 --> 00:40:58,001
See, even though
Eugene Conigliaro
727
00:40:58,069 --> 00:41:02,005
is the father of this baby,
all right, he keeps saying no.
728
00:41:02,540 --> 00:41:04,838
But who knows
better than me?
729
00:41:04,909 --> 00:41:07,207
The thing is,
he keeps denying it
730
00:41:07,278 --> 00:41:10,076
because I need
some financial help.
731
00:41:10,148 --> 00:41:14,312
Well, maybe something
could be done about getting you some.
732
00:41:14,385 --> 00:41:15,716
Legal action, I mean.
733
00:41:15,787 --> 00:41:17,948
We'll have to give
it some thought.
734
00:41:18,022 --> 00:41:19,580
That'd be great.
735
00:41:19,957 --> 00:41:22,892
See, I met him
at Papa Doc's, on the Strip.
736
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,225
I saw him on the floor
and, boy, that was it.
737
00:41:26,297 --> 00:41:29,960
As soon as I saw him dancing,
I knew he was Italian.
738
00:41:30,034 --> 00:41:31,968
Celeste, did you ever
mention to Eugene
739
00:41:32,036 --> 00:41:35,767
that Mac was slapping
your girlfriend Dawn around and Artie was mad?
740
00:41:36,073 --> 00:41:37,836
I think so. Yeah.
741
00:41:38,242 --> 00:41:41,006
Once he was being just
horrible about the baby,
742
00:41:41,078 --> 00:41:42,773
and I started crying,
and I said,
743
00:41:42,847 --> 00:41:45,008
"You're as bad as this
guy I know in Redondo.
744
00:41:45,082 --> 00:41:48,449
"He beats up on this friend
of mine all the time."
745
00:41:48,519 --> 00:41:53,286
Then I mentioned
Dawn and Mac and Dawn's brother, Artie.
746
00:41:53,357 --> 00:41:55,018
What is all this?
747
00:41:55,092 --> 00:41:58,084
Celeste, you know
the kind of man Eugene is.
748
00:41:58,162 --> 00:41:59,789
This might be worse
than you think.
749
00:41:59,864 --> 00:42:02,332
There's a good chance
that he's a murderer.
750
00:42:02,767 --> 00:42:04,234
Dear God.
751
00:42:05,403 --> 00:42:09,032
Coop, I'd make book
that they did it just to make points with Nodzak.
752
00:42:09,106 --> 00:42:12,269
Can you believe it?
These geniuses commit a murder on spec.
753
00:42:15,513 --> 00:42:19,472
Abbott and Costello
meet The Godfather. Pathetic.
754
00:42:20,551 --> 00:42:24,351
But until we hear them say it
or find material evidence, we're just doing guesswork.
755
00:42:36,901 --> 00:42:37,925
Yeah.
756
00:42:38,002 --> 00:42:39,993
Eugene, it's me.
757
00:42:40,071 --> 00:42:41,663
Take a walk until
your hat floats.
758
00:42:41,739 --> 00:42:45,334
No, wait, Eugene.
It's not about the baby, it's about Artie Nodzak.
759
00:42:45,543 --> 00:42:50,105
Eugene, I know what happened.
Dawn Nodzak told me.
760
00:42:50,181 --> 00:42:52,672
And, listen,
I think you're in danger.
761
00:42:52,750 --> 00:42:53,739
Yeah?
762
00:42:53,818 --> 00:42:55,342
But if you want to know
what's gonna happen,
763
00:42:55,419 --> 00:42:57,717
then you have to agree
to help me support the baby.
764
00:42:58,055 --> 00:42:59,147
So that's how come
all of a sudden
765
00:42:59,223 --> 00:43:01,521
you're so interested
in saving my life, huh?
766
00:43:02,026 --> 00:43:04,290
You're a cheap trick,
you know that, Celeste?
767
00:43:05,229 --> 00:43:07,697
All right, I'll come in
with some bread. So, what'd she say?
768
00:43:07,932 --> 00:43:10,457
She said Artie's getting
madder and madder.
769
00:43:10,868 --> 00:43:12,358
He didn't appreciate
what you did.
770
00:43:12,436 --> 00:43:16,133
In fact, he's been doing
nothing but complain because it made him look guilty.
771
00:43:16,841 --> 00:43:18,775
He's coming to get you.
772
00:43:18,843 --> 00:43:21,038
You and Mickey, tomorrow.
773
00:43:21,112 --> 00:43:22,739
Him and a man named Ryan.
774
00:43:23,147 --> 00:43:26,344
He says he's going to do
awful things to your hands and your face,
775
00:43:26,417 --> 00:43:29,409
and then he turns you
over to the police.
776
00:43:29,487 --> 00:43:30,613
Wait, wait,
Celeste, wait.
777
00:43:30,688 --> 00:43:35,091
Listen, you got to get word to
this Dawn to tell her brother.
778
00:43:35,159 --> 00:43:38,026
You see, I got a plan.
I been thinking. It's foolproof.
779
00:43:38,095 --> 00:43:39,153
You got to tell her.
780
00:43:39,230 --> 00:43:41,061
Plan? What are you
talking about?
781
00:43:42,466 --> 00:43:43,865
I'm gonna kill Mickey.
782
00:43:44,101 --> 00:43:45,227
What?
783
00:43:45,770 --> 00:43:48,864
Then... Then you really
did kill Mac?
784
00:43:48,940 --> 00:43:50,134
Yeah, yeah,
me and Mickey.
785
00:43:50,207 --> 00:43:51,265
But the important
thing is
786
00:43:51,342 --> 00:43:53,742
you gotta tell
Artie Nodzak...
787
00:43:57,381 --> 00:44:00,509
Hey, Eugene,
what you say we go downtown?
788
00:44:00,584 --> 00:44:02,176
You can't see
I'm on the phone?
789
00:44:03,187 --> 00:44:05,417
It's my old lady.
She's calling from Jersey.
790
00:44:05,489 --> 00:44:07,457
I'll be out in a minute, Mick.
791
00:44:09,327 --> 00:44:11,522
Yeah. So how's
cousin Carmela?
792
00:44:14,865 --> 00:44:16,264
Celeste?
793
00:44:16,334 --> 00:44:18,768
You gotta tell Artie
that I'm gonna kill Mickey
794
00:44:18,836 --> 00:44:21,600
and put the body over
by Rockford's trailer.
795
00:44:21,672 --> 00:44:24,072
And maybe I'll throw
the weapon in Rockford's car.
796
00:44:24,141 --> 00:44:26,701
This way the cops will find
him and think Rockford did it.
797
00:44:26,777 --> 00:44:28,540
Just another victim
in the feud.
798
00:44:28,612 --> 00:44:31,046
And there ain't a jury
in the world that won't think Rockford's a killer
799
00:44:31,115 --> 00:44:33,640
after all the trouble
he had with us.
800
00:44:34,018 --> 00:44:35,315
You got that?
801
00:44:35,586 --> 00:44:39,522
Now, you tell Artie that
this is the answer to everybody's problems.
802
00:44:40,691 --> 00:44:41,885
I gotta go.
803
00:44:44,929 --> 00:44:47,796
Hey, Mick, what do you say
we go down to the ocean?
804
00:44:47,865 --> 00:44:50,163
Now? It's too cold.
805
00:44:50,234 --> 00:44:51,531
What cold?
806
00:44:51,602 --> 00:44:52,864
I know a guy down there.
807
00:44:52,937 --> 00:44:55,735
We'll score some dust
and we'll hit one of the bars on the ocean.
808
00:44:55,806 --> 00:44:58,036
Maybe we'll pick up
some skirt.
809
00:44:59,010 --> 00:45:01,133
All right.
810
00:45:16,994 --> 00:45:19,394
I met this guy
the other day. Great dust.
811
00:45:19,463 --> 00:45:20,487
Yeah?
812
00:45:20,564 --> 00:45:24,056
He lives in one of
these trailers around here someplace.
813
00:45:24,135 --> 00:45:25,363
Over there.
814
00:45:28,906 --> 00:45:29,930
You coming?
815
00:45:30,007 --> 00:45:30,996
Yeah, yeah.
What are you doing?
816
00:45:31,075 --> 00:45:33,873
The zipper on my
jacket broke. It's stuck.
817
00:45:49,260 --> 00:45:51,785
It won't work,
Conigliaro. It's all over.
818
00:45:51,862 --> 00:45:53,853
What's happening,
Eugene?
819
00:45:54,398 --> 00:45:55,387
Cut them off, Coop.
820
00:45:55,499 --> 00:45:57,091
Cut them off
from their car.
821
00:45:59,170 --> 00:46:00,797
Hold it.
Hold it. Hold it.
822
00:46:01,305 --> 00:46:03,068
Now, drop that thing.
The cops are on their way.
823
00:46:03,140 --> 00:46:05,005
They're not gonna send
you to barber school.
824
00:46:05,076 --> 00:46:07,544
Let them come.
I ain't gonna be here.
825
00:46:09,313 --> 00:46:10,803
All right,
come on.
826
00:46:18,489 --> 00:46:19,478
Take it easy.
827
00:46:25,196 --> 00:46:26,788
Stop him, Smitty!
828
00:46:47,518 --> 00:46:50,783
Hey, Coop, I got mine.
829
00:47:06,270 --> 00:47:08,261
Actually, it's
probably the best thing could have happened.
830
00:47:08,339 --> 00:47:11,103
You know, it ain't
the first time this mailbox has been knocked down.
831
00:47:11,175 --> 00:47:13,905
I was always gonna
put it on a nice iron post
832
00:47:13,978 --> 00:47:16,674
and sink it in concrete
like a proper one.
833
00:47:16,747 --> 00:47:19,978
Excuse me, but can we stick
to the subject at hand?
834
00:47:20,050 --> 00:47:22,746
I mean, if you're not going
to pay Wade Ward a cent,
835
00:47:22,820 --> 00:47:24,549
that's one thing.
I agree. I agree.
836
00:47:24,622 --> 00:47:26,112
But, you see,
I'm a subcontractor,
837
00:47:26,190 --> 00:47:29,159
and I was just wondering
who's going to pay my fees?
838
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:31,328
And of course
I can't charge you
839
00:47:31,395 --> 00:47:32,760
what a full-blown
attorney would
840
00:47:32,830 --> 00:47:34,263
since my license
has been taken away,
841
00:47:34,331 --> 00:47:35,355
but...
Really?
842
00:47:35,432 --> 00:47:36,592
Well, I mean,
I can't go into court for you
843
00:47:36,667 --> 00:47:37,861
or anything like that.
844
00:47:37,935 --> 00:47:42,929
But my advice is informed
over a number of years of experience and...
845
00:47:43,007 --> 00:47:44,872
Yeah, well, that's very
interesting, you know.
846
00:47:44,942 --> 00:47:48,639
In my line of work,
I'm always coming up against legal questions.
847
00:47:48,712 --> 00:47:52,273
Yeah, Coop, Coop,
I think we ought to have a talk, I really do.
848
00:47:52,349 --> 00:47:56,410
Something about
maybe an informal type of retainer thing.
849
00:47:57,121 --> 00:47:59,715
Well, there are lots
of good attorneys around. Real ones.
850
00:47:59,957 --> 00:48:03,017
Like Wade Ward?
No, you're good. You really are.
851
00:48:03,093 --> 00:48:04,958
I told you that
the first time we met.
852
00:48:05,029 --> 00:48:09,363
Yeah, but there's nothing
wrong with a guy trying to cut his operation costs.
853
00:48:09,433 --> 00:48:11,094
I think we ought to
have a talk, Coop.
854
00:48:11,168 --> 00:48:12,157
Well, I'll tell
you what.
855
00:48:12,236 --> 00:48:15,000
Why don't we pay
the bill first and then we'll talk?
856
00:48:15,072 --> 00:48:17,404
Well, sure, sure.
Let's go on in the house, have a beer.
857
00:48:17,474 --> 00:48:18,964
Here,
I'll get that. No, I got it.
858
00:48:19,043 --> 00:48:20,806
I got it.
All right, you take it.
859
00:48:20,856 --> 00:48:25,406
