347
00:16:44,024 --> 00:16:45,193
'CAUSE HER HEART
BROKE THAT DAY.
348
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,564
THAT'S A HORRIBLE THING
FOR A 7-YEAR-OLD TO SEE.
349
00:16:50,564 --> 00:16:53,033
DO YOU THINK
I WANT YOUR SYMPATHY?
350
00:16:53,033 --> 00:16:55,903
DO YOU KNOW
WHAT BECAME OF LINK?
351
00:16:55,903 --> 00:16:58,772
YEAH, I KEPT TRACK
OF THAT BASTARD.
352
00:16:58,772 --> 00:17:01,409
HE GOT SICK A COUPLE
OF YEARS AGO AND DIED...
353
00:17:01,409 --> 00:17:03,277
IN THE COMFORT
OF HIS HOME...
354
00:17:03,277 --> 00:17:07,881
SURROUNDED BY
HIS WIFE AND KIDS.
355
00:17:09,783 --> 00:17:11,419
GET OUT OF HERE!
356
00:17:11,419 --> 00:17:12,820
COME ON!
357
00:17:15,256 --> 00:17:19,260
YOU KNOW WHAT'S WEIRD?
ELY NEVER SHOWED HIMSELF TODAY.
358
00:17:19,260 --> 00:17:21,295
MAYBE HE'S ALL GONE NOW.
359
00:17:21,295 --> 00:17:24,365
THAT'S WHAT I LOVE ABOUT YOU:
FOREVER AN OPTIMIST.
360
00:17:24,365 --> 00:17:26,134
NO, IT WAS MORE LIKE STANDING
ON THAT SQUARE,
361
00:17:26,134 --> 00:17:28,969
YOU COULD SEE ELY'S ANGER
ON HIS SON'S FACE.
362
00:17:28,969 --> 00:17:31,205
THEY MAKE THE SAME
EXPRESSIONS WHEN THEY'RE MAD...
363
00:17:31,205 --> 00:17:33,741
WHICH IS ALL THE TIME.
364
00:17:33,741 --> 00:17:35,743
WELL, THE MAN'S FATHER
WAS KILLED,
365
00:17:35,743 --> 00:17:37,311
PROBABLY IN
A HATE CRIME.
366
00:17:37,311 --> 00:17:39,079
NOTHING WAS DONE.
367
00:17:39,079 --> 00:17:41,882
THAT WOULD PRETTY MUCH
MAKE ME MAD
ALL THE TIME.
368
00:17:41,882 --> 00:17:44,017
I GET IT. I DO.
IT'S JUST...
369
00:17:44,017 --> 00:17:48,489
SO SAD TO SEE SUCH
AN ANGRY LITTLE BOY,
370
00:17:48,489 --> 00:17:50,924
THAT HATRED PASSED ON
FROM FATHER TO SON.
371
00:17:50,924 --> 00:17:53,827
THAT'S THE WAY
OF THE WORLD, MY LOVE.
372
00:17:53,827 --> 00:17:56,730
ALWAYS HAS BEEN.
373
00:17:56,730 --> 00:17:58,932
YOU KNOW, MAYBE
IF I GET THEM TOGETHER,
374
00:17:58,932 --> 00:18:01,469
THE JUDGE COULD TELL
RANDALL WHAT HAPPENED
375
00:18:01,469 --> 00:18:04,071
AND BREAK THE CYCLE.
RIGHT.
376
00:18:04,071 --> 00:18:05,773
AND THEN YOU COULD
GET STARTED
377
00:18:05,773 --> 00:18:07,775
ON THAT PESKY LITTLE
GAZA STRIP THING.
378
00:18:07,775 --> 00:18:09,443
I'M SERIOUS.
379
00:18:09,443 --> 00:18:12,580
THERE'S A REASON
THAT I AM PULLED INTO
THESE PEOPLE'S LIVES.
380
00:18:12,580 --> 00:18:15,216
I KNOW, I KNOW.
381
00:18:15,216 --> 00:18:18,719
SOME THINGS ARE
BEYOND YOUR HELP,
ANYBODY'S HELP.
382
00:18:18,719 --> 00:18:20,521
SOME PEOPLE,
ALL THEY WANT TO DO
383
00:18:20,521 --> 00:18:22,122
IS HOLD ON
TO THEIR HATRED.
384
00:18:24,592 --> 00:18:26,294
WELL, I WON'T KNOW
UNLESS I TRY.
385
00:18:27,761 --> 00:18:30,198
WAIT. YOU MEAN NOW?
386
00:18:30,198 --> 00:18:32,700
YEAH. I CAN'T SLEEP, ANYWAY.
387
00:18:32,700 --> 00:18:34,768
[SIGHS]
I'M COMING WITH YOU.
388
00:18:34,768 --> 00:18:36,204
NO. YOU MIGHT SCARE HIM OFF.
389
00:18:36,204 --> 00:18:38,439
HE DOES NOT SOUND LIKE
A GUY WHO SCARES EASY.
390
00:18:38,439 --> 00:18:41,041
PLEASE? THERE'S
NOTHING YOU CAN DO.
391
00:18:41,041 --> 00:18:42,243
WAIT.
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?
392
00:18:42,243 --> 00:18:43,277
I'M SUPPOSED
TO WAIT HERE
393
00:18:43,277 --> 00:18:44,712
WHILE YOU GO OUT
IN THIS WEATHER
394
00:18:44,712 --> 00:18:46,280
LOOKING FOR THIS...
WHATEVER HE IS?
395
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,849
NO. DON'T WAIT.
GET SOME REST.
396
00:18:48,849 --> 00:18:50,384
I'LL BE HOME SOON.
397
00:18:54,755 --> 00:18:57,625
[THUNDER]
398
00:19:09,102 --> 00:19:10,571
WHO ARE YOU?
399
00:19:20,214 --> 00:19:21,449
WHAT DO YOU WANT?!
400
00:19:21,449 --> 00:19:23,484
WHAT HAVE I DONE TO YOU?!
401
00:19:27,355 --> 00:19:28,956
I KNOW WHAT
HAPPENED TO YOU,
402
00:19:28,956 --> 00:19:31,091
TO YOUR WIFE
AND YOUR SON.
403
00:19:31,091 --> 00:19:32,960
WHAT ABOUT MY SON?
404
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,562
HE'S IN PAIN.
405
00:19:34,562 --> 00:19:36,129
HE IS FILLED
WITH HATRED.
406
00:19:36,129 --> 00:19:37,130
HE SHOULD BE.
407
00:19:37,130 --> 00:19:38,899
NO, YOU'RE WRONG.
408
00:19:38,899 --> 00:19:41,769
IT'S GONNA RUIN
HIS LIFE.
409
00:19:41,769 --> 00:19:43,437
LOOK, I CAN HELP YOU
TALK TO THE JUDGE--
410
00:19:43,437 --> 00:19:45,038
I'LL TALK TO HIM
WHEN HE'S DEAD LIKE ME,
411
00:19:45,038 --> 00:19:46,274
AND THAT'S WHAT
I'LL MAKE HIM
412
00:19:46,274 --> 00:19:47,641
BEFORE HE EVER
GETS A CHANCE
413
00:19:47,641 --> 00:19:49,743
TO SEE THAT DEDICATION
TO HIS GOOD NAME.
414
00:19:49,743 --> 00:19:51,379
DON'T DO THIS.
THERE'S A BETTER WAY.
415
00:19:51,379 --> 00:19:52,713
I'M TAKING HIM!
416
00:19:52,713 --> 00:19:54,114
YOU BETTER STAND BACK,
417
00:19:54,114 --> 00:19:56,384
OR I MAY HAVE
TO TAKE YOU, TOO.
418
00:19:56,384 --> 00:19:57,651
THERE ARE
PEOPLE OVER HERE
419
00:19:57,651 --> 00:20:00,120
WHO ARE VERY
INTERESTED IN YOU.
420
00:20:01,655 --> 00:20:03,123
AAH!
HEY, IT'S OK.
421
00:20:03,123 --> 00:20:05,793
IT'S OK. DON'T BE MAD.
422
00:20:15,269 --> 00:20:17,805
I SPENT A LOT OF TIME
ON THAT CASE.
423
00:20:17,805 --> 00:20:19,740
INTERVIEWED DOZENS
OF PEOPLE.
424
00:20:19,740 --> 00:20:21,141
I WAS A BRAND-NEW
PROSECUTOR,
425
00:20:21,141 --> 00:20:23,344
AND I WANTED TO
MAKE MY BONES.
426
00:20:23,344 --> 00:20:26,079
THE HOFSTADTERS
WERE VERY POWERFUL.
427
00:20:26,079 --> 00:20:28,316
IS THAT WHY YOU DECIDED
NOT TO PROSECUTE?
428
00:20:28,316 --> 00:20:30,250
NO. IF AMBITION WERE
MY ONLY CONCERN,
429
00:20:30,250 --> 00:20:32,653
A MURDER TRIAL WOULD
HAVE BEEN THE BEST WAY
430
00:20:32,653 --> 00:20:34,922
TO GET MY NAME
IN THE PAPERS.
431
00:20:34,922 --> 00:20:36,924
EVERYTHING ISN'T
IN BLACK AND WHITE.
432
00:20:36,924 --> 00:20:39,259
INTERESTING
CHOICE OF WORDS.
433
00:20:39,259 --> 00:20:40,794
NO, I KNEW
LINK HOFSTADTER.
434
00:20:40,794 --> 00:20:43,964
I KNEW HIS FAMILY.
HE WAS A FINE YOUNG MAN.
435
00:20:43,964 --> 00:20:46,400
YOU WANT TO KNOW
WHAT REALLY HAPPENED
THAT NIGHT?
436
00:20:48,436 --> 00:20:51,238
I COME TO WORK ON TIME
FOR 18 YEARS, DAMN YOU,
437
00:20:51,238 --> 00:20:52,973
TOOK CRAP FROM
CUSTOMERS WHO LET ME
438
00:20:52,973 --> 00:20:54,475
CARRY THEIR REFRIGERATOR
THROUGH THE DAMN DOOR
439
00:20:54,475 --> 00:20:56,944
AND THEN GOT NERVOUS
WHEN I TOOK IT INSIDE.
440
00:20:56,944 --> 00:20:59,212
CUSTOMERS WHO MADE ME PUT
THEIR CHANGE ON THE COUNTER
441
00:20:59,212 --> 00:21:00,981
SO WE WOULDN'T
ACCIDENTALLY TOUCH HANDS.
442
00:21:00,981 --> 00:21:02,750
BUT I TOOK IT.
OH, I SMILED.
443
00:21:02,750 --> 00:21:04,251
I SAID THANK YOU,
AND YOU'RE PAYING HIM
444
00:21:04,251 --> 00:21:06,253
A DOLLAR MORE AN HOUR
THAN YOU PAY ME?
445
00:21:06,253 --> 00:21:08,556
HIS FATHER,
I OWE HIM A FAVOR.
446
00:21:08,556 --> 00:21:09,723
A DOLLAR MORE!
447
00:21:09,723 --> 00:21:11,291
AND THIS MEATHEAD CAN'T
TELL THE DIFFERENCE
448
00:21:11,291 --> 00:21:12,893
BETWEEN A LAMPSHADE
AND A LIGHT SOCKET.
449
00:21:12,893 --> 00:21:14,562
I'D WATCH YOUR
MOUTH, BOY.
450
00:21:14,562 --> 00:21:16,163
DON'T YOU EVER
CALL ME BOY.
451
00:21:16,163 --> 00:21:17,865
YOU DUMBASS CRACKER.
452
00:21:17,865 --> 00:21:20,300
JUST STOP IT. CALL ME BOY
AGAIN, YOU'RE DEAD!
453
00:21:20,300 --> 00:21:21,935
THAT'S ENOUGH.
WE'RE OK.
454
00:21:21,935 --> 00:21:24,638
I WON'T HAVE THIS.
NOT IN MY STORE.
455
00:21:24,638 --> 00:21:26,507
ONE MORE FIGHT,
I FIRE YOU BOTH.
456
00:21:31,178 --> 00:21:35,282
Merrick, voice-over:
THAT NIGHT, ELY WAITED FOR HIM.
457
00:21:35,282 --> 00:21:37,117
ELY COULD TAKE CARE
OF HIMSELF.
458
00:21:37,117 --> 00:21:38,986
HE WAS GOOD WITH HIS FISTS.
459
00:21:38,986 --> 00:21:40,588
HEY, BOY,
460
00:21:40,588 --> 00:21:43,290
I GOT SOMETHIN'
FOR YOU.

COME ON.
COME ON, CRACKER.
462
00:21:46,026 --> 00:21:47,361
SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT.
463
00:21:47,361 --> 00:21:49,497
COME ON.
464
00:21:49,497 --> 00:21:51,632
COME ON, CRACKER!
COME ON, SHOW ME
WHAT YOU GOT.
465
00:21:51,632 --> 00:21:53,601
I'M NOT LOSING
MY JOB OVER YOU.
466
00:21:53,601 --> 00:21:55,102
COME ON.
467
00:22:02,810 --> 00:22:04,177
COME ON, BOY.
468
00:22:04,177 --> 00:22:06,847
COME ON, BOY.

[YELLS]
470
00:22:09,750 --> 00:22:11,619
COME ON.
471
00:22:14,488 --> 00:22:18,358
[GROANS]

00:22:24,432 --> 00:22:25,799
[COUGHS]
473
00:22:25,799 --> 00:22:29,403
Merrick, voice-over:
IT WAS A CASE OF SELF-DEFENSE.
474
00:22:29,403 --> 00:22:30,938
Melinda:
HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?
475
00:22:30,938 --> 00:22:32,372
YOU WEREN'T EVEN THERE.
476
00:22:32,372 --> 00:22:33,541
I TOOK STATEMENTS
477
00:22:33,541 --> 00:22:35,509
FROM THE PEOPLE WHO
SAW THE TWO OF THEM
478
00:22:35,509 --> 00:22:37,144
ARGUING IN THE STREET.
479
00:22:37,144 --> 00:22:39,513
THE MEDICAL REPORTS BACKED
UP EVERYTHING LINK SAID.
480
00:22:39,513 --> 00:22:42,783
I CAME TO THIS VERY HOSPITAL
TO QUESTION HIM THAT NIGHT.
481
00:22:42,783 --> 00:22:44,552
HE HAD TWO BROKEN RIBS,
482
00:22:44,552 --> 00:22:48,756
AND HE NEEDED 19 STITCHES
TO CLOSE UP HIS CHEEK.
483
00:22:48,756 --> 00:22:50,023
AND ELY?
484
00:22:50,023 --> 00:22:52,225
THE BLOW TO HIS HEAD
KILLED HIM INSTANTLY.
485
00:22:52,225 --> 00:22:54,662
LINK WAS ALL
TORN UP ABOUT IT.
486
00:22:54,662 --> 00:22:56,630
I DOUBT HE EVER
FORGAVE HIMSELF.
487
00:22:56,630 --> 00:22:58,732
THERE WERE RUMORS
ABOUT A WITNESS.
488
00:22:58,732 --> 00:23:00,067
OH, I KNOW ABOUT THE RUMORS,
489
00:23:00,067 --> 00:23:03,036
AND THEY WERE NEVER
SUBSTANTIATED, NOT ONE.
490
00:23:03,036 --> 00:23:05,506
WHY ARE YOU DIGGING
ALL THIS UP? WHY NOW?
491
00:23:05,506 --> 00:23:07,441
ELY'S FAMILY FEELS
LIKE THERE WAS
492
00:23:07,441 --> 00:23:08,742
AN INJUSTICE DONE.
493
00:23:08,742 --> 00:23:10,978
I'M SURE THEY DO.
494
00:23:10,978 --> 00:23:12,746
IT WAS A TRAGEDY
FROM EVERY SIDE.
495
00:23:12,746 --> 00:23:15,215
BUT YOU CAN'T BRING
CRIMINAL CHARGES
496
00:23:15,215 --> 00:23:17,217
AGAINST A MAN,
RUIN HIS GOOD NAME,
497
00:23:17,217 --> 00:23:20,087
MAYBE TAINT HIM FOR LIFE,
FOR DEFENDING HIMSELF.

00:23:29,463 --> 00:23:32,700

WHY ARE YOU CRYING?
500

LOOK, I'M NOT CRYING.
501
00:23:34,367 --> 00:23:35,769
IT'S JUST THE WIND.
502
00:23:35,769 --> 00:23:37,538
IT BLEW SOMETHING
IN MY EYE.
503
00:23:37,538 --> 00:23:40,173
IT'S REAL WINDY
IN THE SQUARE.
504
00:23:40,173 --> 00:23:42,175
THEN WHY ARE WE
SITTING HERE SO LONG?
505
00:23:42,175 --> 00:23:45,646
MAYBE...
506
00:23:45,646 --> 00:23:48,381
I DON'T KNOW.
507
00:23:48,381 --> 00:23:50,383
MAKES ME FEEL
CLOSER TO MY DAD.
508
00:23:50,383 --> 00:23:53,053
I FEEL A LITTLE MIXED UP.

00:23:54,254 --> 00:23:55,523
COME ON, LET'S GO.
511
00:23:55,523 --> 00:23:57,858
BUT, DADDY, YOU TOLD ME
NEVER TO CRY.
512
00:23:57,858 --> 00:23:59,059
YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.
513
00:23:59,059 --> 00:24:02,763
DON'T YOU EVER LET
ANYBODY MAKE YOU CRY.
514
00:24:02,763 --> 00:24:05,499
YOU ONLY TRUST
YOUR OWN KIND.
515
00:24:05,499 --> 00:24:07,735
THAT'S HOW
YOU STAY STRONG.
516
00:24:07,735 --> 00:24:10,203
THAT'S HOW
YOU STAY READY.
517
00:24:10,203 --> 00:24:11,338

00:24:11,338 --> 00:24:14,875

693
00:32:40,380 --> 00:32:42,215
I WAS JUST GONNA
THROW HIM A BEATING.
694
00:32:42,215 --> 00:32:47,820
SHOW HIM HOW HE HAS
TO TREAT A WHITE MAN.
695
00:32:47,820 --> 00:32:51,358
YOU'RE THE WITNESS.
696
00:32:51,358 --> 00:32:55,128
HE TOLD ME EVERYTHING.
697
00:32:57,297 --> 00:33:00,400
WELL...
698
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:02,602
THIS IS A NICE
SEND-OFF.
699
00:33:02,602 --> 00:33:04,571
THEY'RE LETTING
ME OUT ON PAROLE.
700
00:33:04,571 --> 00:33:08,108
I SUGGESTED THEY SENTENCE ME
TO COMMUNITY SERVICE, BUT...
701
00:33:08,108 --> 00:33:10,143
I'M SORRY,
DO I KNOW YOU?
702
00:33:10,143 --> 00:33:11,244
THIS IS RANDALL FISHER,
703
00:33:11,244 --> 00:33:12,645
ELY'S SON.
704
00:33:12,645 --> 00:33:15,382
THE TWO OF YOU WILL
HAVE TO EXCUSE ME.
705
00:33:15,382 --> 00:33:16,516
I'VE GOT TO GET DRESSED.
706
00:33:16,516 --> 00:33:18,551
THERE WAS A WITNESS,
WASN'T THERE?
707
00:33:18,551 --> 00:33:21,288
A NURSE,
WHO CAME TO YOU.
708
00:33:21,288 --> 00:33:22,622
I DON'T KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.
709
00:33:22,622 --> 00:33:25,092
I'M GOING HOME NOW.
710
00:33:25,092 --> 00:33:26,659
[LAUGHS]
711
00:33:26,659 --> 00:33:28,728
HEY, I WASN'T
GONNA END HIM.
712
00:33:28,728 --> 00:33:31,864
MAYBE HE SHOULDN'T HAVE
RAISED HIS HANDS TO ME.
713
00:33:31,864 --> 00:33:35,535
YOU KNOW, HE SHOULD'VE JUST
TAKEN WHAT HE HAD COMING.
714
00:33:35,535 --> 00:33:37,804
MAYBE THEN I WOULD'VE
LEFT HIM ALIVE.
715
00:33:37,804 --> 00:33:39,539
[LAUGHS]
716
00:33:39,539 --> 00:33:41,974
HEY, COME HERE.
717
00:33:41,974 --> 00:33:44,177
WE HAVE TO KEEP
THIS PLACE SAFE.
718
00:33:44,177 --> 00:33:46,446
FOR OUR KIND.
719
00:33:46,446 --> 00:33:49,782
BUT THAT'S NOT IT,
IS IT?
720
00:33:49,782 --> 00:33:51,551
THE E.R. NURSE CAME TO YOU
AND TOLD YOU
721
00:33:51,551 --> 00:33:53,386
WHAT LINK HAD SAID TO HER.
722
00:33:53,386 --> 00:33:54,754
MR. MERRICK,
723
00:33:54,754 --> 00:33:57,224
I'M THE NURSE
WHO CALLED YOU.
724
00:33:57,224 --> 00:33:59,025
LINK TOLD ME
EVERYTHING.
725
00:33:59,025 --> 00:34:00,927
I TALKED TO LINK, TOO.
HE WAS DRUNK.
726
00:34:00,927 --> 00:34:03,530
DOESN'T WANT PEOPLE TO THINK
HE GOT JUMPED BY A BLACK MAN
727
00:34:03,530 --> 00:34:05,865
IN AN ALLEY AND HE
DIDN'T DEFEND HIMSELF.
728
00:34:05,865 --> 00:34:07,467
THAT'S NOT THE STORY.
729
00:34:07,467 --> 00:34:10,570
WELL, IT'S A CASE I CAN'T WIN.
SO THE CASE IS CLOSED.
730
00:34:10,570 --> 00:34:14,507
THE NEXT DAY
THERE WAS $5,000 IN
MY CHECKING ACCOUNT.
731
00:34:14,507 --> 00:34:17,377
THE HOFSTADTERS PUT $5,000
INTO HER CHECKING ACCOUNT.
732
00:34:17,377 --> 00:34:21,281
WHAT?
733
00:34:21,281 --> 00:34:23,283
I DIDN'T KNOW, I SWEAR.
SHE NEVER TOLD ME.
734
00:34:23,283 --> 00:34:24,417
SHE TRIED TO TELL YOU
ONCE,
735
00:34:24,417 --> 00:34:26,186
BUT YOU TOLD HER THAT
THE CASE WAS CLOSED.
736
00:34:26,186 --> 00:34:27,754
BUT IF I'D KNOWN
THEY PAID HER...
737
00:34:27,754 --> 00:34:29,356
YOU SHOULD'VE LOOKED
AGAIN.
738
00:34:29,356 --> 00:34:31,224
BUT YOU WANTED
TO LOOK AWAY.
739
00:34:31,224 --> 00:34:33,993
HOW DO YOU KNOW
ALL OF THIS, ANYWAY?
740
00:34:33,993 --> 00:34:36,629
HOW DO I KNOW YOU
DIDN'T JUST INVENT IT?
741
00:34:36,629 --> 00:34:37,997
IT'S THE TRUTH.
742
00:34:37,997 --> 00:34:39,566
CHECK THE BANK RECORDS
IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME,
743
00:34:39,566 --> 00:34:41,334
BUT THE EASIER WAY
IS JUST TO DO NOTHING.
744
00:34:41,334 --> 00:34:44,571
THIS WAS A STUPID ARGUMENT
THAT GOT OUT OF HAND.
745
00:34:44,571 --> 00:34:46,473
IT WAS AN ARGUMENT OVER
A DOLLAR AN HOUR.
746
00:34:46,473 --> 00:34:48,675
THIS HAD NOTHING TO DO
WITH A DOLLAR AN HOUR
747
00:34:48,675 --> 00:34:51,911
OR A SEAT ON A BUS
OR A WATER FOUNTAIN.
748
00:34:51,911 --> 00:34:54,781
THIS IS ABOUT SOMETHING
BIGGER, AND YOU KNOW IT.
749
00:34:56,783 --> 00:34:59,719
I DIDN'T KNOW
ABOUT THE MONEY.
750
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:01,154
WELL, YOU DO NOW.
751
00:35:01,154 --> 00:35:03,290
I JUST DIDN'T BELIEVE
752
00:35:03,290 --> 00:35:04,857
HE COULD'VE DONE
SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
753
00:35:04,857 --> 00:35:07,527
WE KNOW WHAT YOU BELIEVE,
JUDGE, THEN AND NOW,
754
00:35:07,527 --> 00:35:10,897
AND WE BOTH KNOW WHY
YOU LOOKED AWAY, DON'T WE?
755
00:35:20,139 --> 00:35:22,141
[BAND PLAYING
"THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER"]
756
00:35:35,455 --> 00:35:37,324
WALTER MERRICK WAS
NOT ONLY A JUDGE
757
00:35:37,324 --> 00:35:38,858
AT THIS COURTHOUSE
FOR 25 YEARS,
758
00:35:38,858 --> 00:35:42,495
HE WAS INSTRUMENTAL
IN RESTORING GRANDVIEW
759
00:35:42,495 --> 00:35:45,298
TO THE TOWN MANY
OF US GREW UP IN.
760
00:35:45,298 --> 00:35:48,401
THE STORM HAS PASSED. HE'S
HEALTHY AND STRONG AS EVER.
761
00:35:48,401 --> 00:35:50,803
JUDGE WALTER MERRICK.
762
00:35:52,805 --> 00:35:54,441
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
763
00:35:54,441 --> 00:36:00,146
I'VE BEEN RECOGNIZED
AS MANY THINGS IN THIS TOWN.
764
00:36:00,146 --> 00:36:06,018
A TOUGH BUT FAIR-MINDED JUDGE,
765
00:36:06,018 --> 00:36:08,955
A DEACON OF MY CHURCH,
766
00:36:08,955 --> 00:36:11,558
A GOOD HUSBAND.
767
00:36:11,558 --> 00:36:14,927
THE ONE THING I WAS
NOT KNOWN AS...
768
00:36:14,927 --> 00:36:17,063
IS A RACIST.
769
00:36:17,063 --> 00:36:21,934
30 YEARS AGO,
770
00:36:21,934 --> 00:36:26,072
A BLACK MAN, ELY FISHER, WAS
KILLED RIGHT IN THE SQUARE.
771
00:36:26,072 --> 00:36:27,607
THE PLAIN TRUTH IS,
772
00:36:27,607 --> 00:36:30,877
I ASSUMED ELY FISHER
WAS THE GUILTY ONE.
773
00:36:30,877 --> 00:36:36,649
I MADE A JUDGMENT CALL
THAT WAS CALLOUS AND BIGOTED.
774
00:36:36,649 --> 00:36:42,555
IT WOULD BE EASY TO SAY
IT WAS 30 YEARS AGO,
775
00:36:42,555 --> 00:36:46,158
BUT THE TRUTH IS
776
00:36:46,158 --> 00:36:48,995
THAT I WAS THAT SAME
MAN UNTIL YESTERDAY.
777
00:36:48,995 --> 00:36:53,366
DESPITE GREAT PROGRESS
IN THIS COUNTRY,
778
00:36:53,366 --> 00:36:56,636
RACISM IS STILL
VERY MUCH ALIVE.
779
00:36:56,636 --> 00:36:58,538
IT CAN BE SUBTLE,
780
00:36:58,538 --> 00:37:02,975
HANDED DOWN FROM
GENERATION TO GENERATION.
781
00:37:02,975 --> 00:37:07,380
THIS TRAGEDY IS MY SHAME.
782
00:37:07,380 --> 00:37:09,982
MY DEBT.
783
00:37:09,982 --> 00:37:15,054
BUT, IF IT BECOMES
A REASON TO CHANGE,
784
00:37:15,054 --> 00:37:20,893
FOR EVEN ONE OF YOU,
OR ONE OF YOUR CHILDREN,
785
00:37:20,893 --> 00:37:26,165
ELY FISHER'S DEATH WILL
HAVE GAINED NEW MEANING.
786
00:37:26,165 --> 00:37:29,569
SO LATER TODAY, I WILL
OFFICIALLY RECOMMEND
787
00:37:29,569 --> 00:37:32,271
THAT THIS PLAQUE BE REMOVED
788
00:37:32,271 --> 00:37:34,273
AND THAT A NEW ONE
REPLACE IT,
789
00:37:34,273 --> 00:37:36,075
ONE THAT DEDICATES
790
00:37:36,075 --> 00:37:39,779
THIS COURTHOUSE
TO ELY FISHER.

TO TALK TO YOU.
800
00:38:27,126 --> 00:38:28,461
I'M RIGHT HERE.

HE'S HERE.
802
00:38:30,563 --> 00:38:32,331
ASK HIM HOW HE FEELS.
803
00:38:32,331 --> 00:38:33,866
I HARDLY KNOW.
804
00:38:33,866 --> 00:38:36,068
I'M GLAD THE RIGHT
THING WAS DONE,
805
00:38:36,068 --> 00:38:38,571
BUT IT DON'T
CHANGE MUCH.
806
00:38:38,571 --> 00:38:43,275
THOUGHT I'D FEEL
HAPPY, LIKE I WON.
807
00:38:43,275 --> 00:38:46,746
I DON'T THINK
ANYONE WON.
808
00:38:46,746 --> 00:38:49,682

THE TRUTH CAME OUT,
809
00:38:49,682 --> 00:38:51,083
BUT IT DIDN'T CHANGE MUCH.
810
00:38:51,083 --> 00:38:52,585
IT DOES, POP.
811
00:38:52,585 --> 00:38:56,389
I THOUGHT STAYING MAD
ALL THAT TIME
REALLY GAVE ME SOMETHING--
812
00:38:56,389 --> 00:39:00,126
SOMETHING TO STAY HERE FOR,
SOMETHING TO KEEP ME GOING.
813
00:39:00,126 --> 00:39:03,463
BUT IT TOOK A LOT AWAY, TOO.
814
00:39:03,463 --> 00:39:07,567
FROM ME, FROM YOU,
EVEN JAMEEL.
815
00:39:07,567 --> 00:39:09,268

DOESN'T STAY MAD, EITHER.

LET GO OF THIS NOW.

LOOK LIKE YOUR MOTHER.
