Mr. Markowitz, Barry Gorman.
Thanks for seein' me.

Sure. What can I do for you?

Oh, we'll get to that.

That's a nice family.

Thank you.
Thank you very much.

So you have a client with
a tax problem, is that right?

Hm? Oh, no, no.

This is a private matter.

You, uh, [clears throat]

knew a woman back in 1974
named Karen Alder?

Yes. I did indeed.

We met down in Baja.
How's she doin'?

She passed away
a few months ago.

I'm very sorry to hear that.

She was, she was a couple
of years younger than I am.

You and Ms. Alder
had a relationship, right?

I wouldn't call it
a relationship.

We went out a few times.

You had... sexual relations

on some on those occasions,
didn't you?

Excuse me?

What is this about, Mr. Gorman?

This is about paternity,
Mr. Markowitz.

You have a daughter.

[theme music]

[music continues]

[music continues]

[instrumental music]

[music continues]

Well, so far this alleged
"daughter" hasn't filed yet.

She'll probably threaten to go
public to force a settlement.

- That's blackmail!
Arnie: Oh, absolutely.

Look, this Gorman
is a bottom-feeder,

I wouldn't be surprised
if he manipulated

this girl into filing suit.

He may even try to get
appointed her guardian.

So we're looking at fraud here?

Probably, but they've done
some homework.

Stuart...

you did know
this woman, Karen Alder?

Yeah, I-- I-- I dated her
for like, uh, 3 months.

And you did go to bed with her?

Yeah, it was a casual thing.

- Well, I wasn't a monk!
- I never said you were.

Okay, the good news is,
the girl is sixteen,

the most she can
ask for is 2 years' support

until she reaches her majority.

What's the bad news?

California child support

guidelines state that a child

must be supported
in a fashion commensurate

with the father's wealth.

Ann: Oh, God...

Given your net annual salary,

I can see her going for, what,
6,000 a month for 2 years?

You're lookin'
at $150,000 hit here.

If this really were my daughter

why didn't the mother contact
me for support?

- Exactly!
Arnie: Relax.

- They overlooked one thing.
- What?

Your sperm count is so low

it can be measured
in fractions.

Their case is real shaky.

Great. That makes me feel
really wonderful.

So, what do we do?

The easiest way
to get rid of this?

DNA tests.

But it probably
won't come to that.

Look, Gorman
is a K-Mart lawyer.

If I go at him at Warp Ten
and I don't let up,

I might intimidate him
right back into the woodwork.

Good, because if he thinks
we are going to roll over

for this kind of extortion,
he is dead wrong!

Next up, The Simon
and Katherine Rubin Foundation

versus University of California
and Dr. Emily Connor.

We're representing Dr. Connor
and the University?

Yeah, The Rubin Foundation

granted Dr. Connor $100,000
to study a new way

to save heart attack
and stroke victims.

She's halfway through
the project

and Kurt Rubin,
the Foundation president,

wants his money back.

Why?

He says she's breached
their contract

by using scientific data

from the Nazi
concentration camps.

- Nazis?
Cara: What data?

- We're representing Nazis?
- No.

We're representing
a highly respected scientist

who wants to save lives.

Which particular Nazi
experiments is she using?

The Dachau hypothermia
experiment.

You know,
where they subjected prisoners

to freezing temperatures
and monitored

their physiological responses.

- How many died?
Jonathan: About 90 men,

but tens of thousands
die every month

from heart disease,
and my client

thinks she can save
a lot of them.

I'm sorry,
but I don't buy that.

Arnie: I hate to sound crass,

but if it meant the life
and death

of somebody that I loved,
I'd want them to use the data.

It won't change what happened
to those prisoners.

I don't think
it's quite that simple, Arnold.

Come on, Leland, no one's saying
the experiments

weren't horrendous,
but they were 50 years ago.

If the data can save
even one life today,

I feel we should do it.

I'm not saying you shouldn't

take the case, Jonathan,

but I understand what Mr. Rubin
is afraid of.

Is there any possibility
of a settlement?

So far they haven't
been willing.

I think they're just hoping
for the best deal

at the 11th hour.

Good luck.
And we're adjourned.

That's is for News at Noon.
Have a great day, L.A.

We're clear!
Good work, people.

Good piece.

These chairs are murder.

Here, let me show you
what's good for that.

Come here, sit down.

Ooh, your scapula's in spasm.

Okay, just relax.

How can I ever thank you?

Well... now that you ask...

I have 2 tickets for Phantom
this Friday night

and I just broke up
with someone.

I'd hate to listen to the music
of the night alone.

Would you go with me?

I'd love to, but I--
but I can't.

I'm living with someone
and, uh...

She's gonna meet me here
for lunch.

Well, that proves it.

All the good ones are taken.

Sorry. [both laughs]

I'll live.

Just to show you
there are no hard feelings,

I'll finish up your left trap.

[sighs]

Is this what they mean by
"hands on" journalism?

[both laughing]

Oh, boy, this is heaven.

Ahem.

Roxanne! Hi.

Uh, this is Julie Rayburn.

- Uh, you know Julie Rayburn?
- No, no.

But I've heard
a lot about her.

Uh, Julie,
this is my girlfriend,

Roxanne Melman.

Nice to meet you.
You've got a great guy here.

Thanks. I think so, too.
Most of the time.

We gotta go. See you tomorrow.

We'd like to find some
middle ground here, Mr. Rubin.

We've still got a few minutes
before court.

No.

It can't hurt
to at least listen, Kurt.

Rubin: There is middle ground!

Using my money
to legitimize Nazis

desecrates the memory
of my parents.

And letting people die
honors them?

- Emily...
- We have a contract.

This isn't just
about contracts.

It's about not forgetting.

This is pointless.

Jonathan!

- Hey, babe.
- There was a file

on the kitchen table.

Ah, yes,
People versus Barretto?

Yes. You are a lifesaver.

I gotta go. Bye.

Your wife?

Girlfriend.

Is that...
Is that a problem?

We live with it.

My mother was a Protestant

and my father was a Jew.

They were not allowed
to live with it.

Under the Nazis,
their marriage was a crime

and their punishment
was death.

Mr. Rubin, what happened
when you were 7 years old?

I was climbing trees
in the woods near our house.

When I got home,
my parents were gone.

The Nazis had taken them
to Auschwitz.

- I never saw them again.
Neil: What did you do?

Rubin: I lived in the woods
for several days,

before a neighbor found me.

For the next year,
I was a child fugitive.

Sometimes runnin,
sometimes hiding

in farmers barns
and cellars.

Finally I was, uh...

smuggled to Switzerland.

Do you know what happened
to your parents

in the concentration camps?

Yes, a survivor I found
after the war

told me that...

the Nazis tried to make
my father a Kapo,

a prisoner who helped them
brutalize other prisoners.

Neil: Did your father agree?
- No.

He committed suicide

by throwing himself
on an electrified fence.

And your mother?

They shot her

when she tried to stop them

from removing my father's head.

Neil: Why would they
remove his head?

A Nazi anthropologist

wanted Jewish skulls
for his collection.

And this is
the kind of "science"

the Nazis practiced.

Objection, irrelevant!

It is not he kind of science
Dr. Connor practices.

Sustained.

Why did you establish
a foundation

in your parents name,
Mr. Rubin?

To promote
the betterment of mankind,

subject to ethical,
medical research standards.

Then why did you agree
to fund a project

that included the Dachau
hypothermia data?

Because Dr. Connor's
application didn't state

that she was going
to use the data.

It was only after
she cashed my check

that she began
conducting seminars

which referenced
this... torture.

If you'd known this,

you'd never have agreed
to give her the grant?

Rubin: Absolutely not.

My mother and father
were butchered

by those criminals,
Mr. Robertson.

How can anyone expect me
to give money in their name

to someone who says
that these criminals

were scientists?

No further questions.

Does the Rubin Foundation
require grant applicants

to list all of their
research sources?

We require primary sources, yes.

And didn't Dr. Connor
list her primary sources?

Rubin: Yes, but--

So, Dr. Connor didn't deceive
you in her application?

No, but she obviously omitted
the Dachau data

because she knew that
I would refuse--

Move to strike. Mr. Rubin isn't
able to read Dr. Connor's mind.

Sustained.

Doesn't your grant include
a statement

protecting
full academic freedom?

This is not about
academic freedom, Mr. Rollins.

It's about my right
to refuse to finance lies!

Yes or no, Mr. Rubin.

Do you believe
in academic freedom?

Yes, but I don't believe in
legitimizing atrocities--

And doesn't Dr. Connor say that
her research can save lives?

Rubin: Yes, but--

And if that's true, isn't her
work promoting

the betterment of mankind?

Not if it exonerates savagery!

Do you think this is all over
and done with?

Do you think the Nazis
were just some

historical aberration?

- Your Honor, move to strike.
Rubin: Look around you!

We're in a recession
and up springs

a former Ku Klux Klansman
to run for president!

- Your Honor.
Donald: Mr. Rubin.

In Germany Neo-Nazis
are killing foreigners

and people watched,
just like they watched Hitler.

Mr. Rubin, please!

What if you're a communist,
Dr. Connor?

- Or a homosexual?
- That's enough! Sit down.

What if they outlaw scientists?

What is you are the enemy
next time?

Donald: Mr. Rubin... please.

Naw.

Be aggressive, Arnie.
I want vintage Becker.

Please, Ann.

Good morning.

Mr. Markowitz. Mr. Becker.

This is my wife, Ann Kelsey.

Mr. Gorman.

I'd like you both to meet
my client, Sarah Alder.

Hi.

Hello.

Hi.

- Hi.
- Let's get started.

First thing I'd like to know
is what you're doing

representing a minor?

It so happens, counselor,
that I'm planning on

seeking guardianship
for this young lady.

You know, the only thing that
stinks here

worse than your case, counselor,
is your ethics.

Let's drop the animosity,
shall we?

You haven't seen animosity,
Mr. Gorman.

It's highly unlikely
that this girl

is Mr. Markowitz's daughter,

as these medical records
from his urologist can attest.

You're leveling flimsy charges

against a man
of high principles...

and a low sperm count.

Stuart: Alright, Arnie.

She's your daughter, Stuart.

Arnie: What?
- What?

Ann: You're the father.
I can tell.

Terrific! Let's draw up
some papers.

Look at eyes for God's sake.

- Can't you see it?
- I don't believe this.

How are we gonna tell Matthew?

Honey, M-- Matthew's
two years old.

I can see it now, "Mother,
this is Stuart's daughter

- this is Stuart's daughter--
Stuart: Oh, wait a minute!

We don't talk to your
mother now.

- Why should this change?
- He's not my father.

- What?
Arnie: What?

I'm sorry.

I knew my mom
had been with you,

I knew you had money,
that's why I came to you.

But you're not my real father.

Let's not jump to any rash
conclusions here.

He doesn't even look like me!

Sarah: I'm sorry.

During 1942 and '43

approximately 350 male
concentration camp prisoners

were either plunged naked
into vats of freezing water

or hosed down and left outdoors
in sub zero weather.

To lower their
body temperatures

to subnormal levels?

David: Yes, as their
temperatures dropped,

physiological and biochemical
changes were recorded.

When they were near death,

the Nazis tried various methods
to rewarm them.

What was the so-called purpose
for these "experiments?"

To find ways
to save German pilots

who fell into the North Sea

when their planes
were shot down.

As an expert
on these experiments,

how would you say
the Dachau study

measures up scientifically?

The report is riddled
with inconsistencies

and very likely falsifications.

There is no evidence

that scientific standards
were maintained.

And what about the man
who ran these experiments?

Dr. Sigmund Rascher
was a mediocre scientist.

But he was
an accomplished sadist,

whose hobbies included
collecting human skin

for riding britches.

Niel: Did Dr. Rascher conduct

any other experiments
for the Nazis?

Objection. Relevance?

Goes to the competency
of the researcher, Your Honor.

I'll allow it.

I hesitate to call what Rascher
did experiments.

He-- he put people
in pressure chambers

until his subjects
lungs exploded.

He also slaughtered
men and women

by amputating their limbs

to test a medication he claimed
would reduce bleeding.

Dr. Howell, if a scientist
came forward today with data

gathered using methods like
Sigmund Rascher's,

what do you think would happen?

He'd be thrown in prison,

and his data recognized
for the garbage it is.

Thank you.

Your witness.

You say this data is garbage,
Dr. Howell?

David: Yes.

Then how do you explain the fact

that it's been cited in numerous

respected medical studies?

The authors obviously only took
the results at face value.

They haven't done
any real analysis.

But didn't the Dachau data help
researchers develop techniques

for open heart surgery
and cold water survival suits?

The degree to which that
data helped

is highly debatable, counsel.

The majority of medical
ethicists agree with me.

Medical ethicists agree.

And that's primarily
your field, isn't it doctor?

Yes.

But physicians, and
physiologists like Dr. Connor,

have found that data valuable

and utilized it in the past.
Isn't that correct?

Every time we accept
the unacceptable,

the unspeakable,

we bring it that much closer
to happening again.

Doctor, we don't live
in Nazi Germany.

Starting in 1932,
the U.S. Public Health Service

studied 100s of black men
with syphilis.

They never told them
they had the disease

"Bad blood"
is what they called it.

And even after the introduction
of penicillin

they refused to cure them.

Those men died horrible deaths,

all for the sake of a study.

A study that didn't stop
until 1972!

So don't tell me
this kind of thing

can't happen here, counsel!

That's tragic, Dr. Howell,

but it is not what this case
is about.

Dr. Connor is not
an unethical researcher.

She is if she uses
unethical data!

Or maybe she saw a way to
bring some good out of the pain

and terror these
prisoners suffered.

- Objection.
Jonathan: Withdrawn.

I have nothing further.

Arnie, just the man
I want to see!

Do you know anything
about computer sex?

Sex between computers?

man: Two minutes to floor.

No, no. computer operators.

Electronic bulletin boards
on sexual topics.

Like phone sex,
but via modem.

And it's not all talk, either.

With a good printer,
you can send photographs

or illustrations like these.

I guess
it's the missionary position...

if you're a missionary
from Mars.

[laughs]

Computer generated images.

Cybersex. [laughs]
It's a natural, right?

Oh, absolutely. A natural.

For what?

Sweeps week.

Now what I need from you
is the legal angle.

man: Thirty seconds to floor.

Julie: This could give us both
a big boost.

It's incredibly hot,

our faces will be all over
every promo

for the 6 o'clock news.

Think of the exposure.

Sounds great.
Let's do it this afternoon.

Julie: I can't. I've got
a remote at Griffith Park.

And I'm in the editing room
all day tomorrow.

How about tomorrow night?

We can go to my place, order
a pizza, go over everything.

Your place. Tomorrow.
You've got it.

man: And four, three,
two, one...

Dr. Connor, you're a specialist
in hypothermia

and the study of blood flow
to the brain, correct?

Yes, with the Rubin grant,

I hope to find ways to lessen
the damage of heart disease

by cooling certain parts
of the brain.

What good would that do?

During a heart attack or stroke,

the brain gets less oxygen
and glucose.

Cooling the brain helps
diminish it's need

for those things,
and hopefully

extends the time
for medical intervention.

And where does the Dachau
hypothermia data fit in?

That data could pinpoint
which areas

of the brain are most responsive
to cooling.

It will also help determine
how far

we can cool someone's brain
before we do damage ourselves.

And that information
isn't available elsewhere?

No, with all their flaws,

the Dachau hypothermia
experiments

are the most extensive studies

of the human thermoregulatory
system we have.

Jonathan: What about using
animal studies?

They don't help.

All mammals respond
differently to cold.

How do you feel about

what the Nazis did at Dachau,
Dr. Connor?

As a human being,

I think it's horrendous.

As a medical researcher,

I have to balance it
against the potential

the research has to save others.

Jonathan: Thank you, Dr. Connor.

No further questions.

Dr. Connor,

could you complete your project

without the Dachau
hypothermia data?

Yes, but it would take longer.

Months longer.

And every 32 seconds
in this country,

someone dies
of cardiovascular disease.

Someone I might be able to save.

Wouldn't those extra months
also benefit you

professionally, Dr. Connor?

By giving you a leg up

on the other researchers
working in this field?

- Objection!
Donald: Overruled.

My main concern
is saving lives.

But you have no compelling
evidence

your findings will do that,
do you?

Emily: Of course,
I can't guarantee it--

In fact, that's just
speculation

on your part, isn't it?

- Technically, yes, but--
Neil: Thank you.

Doctor, you knew
the Rubin Foundation

was established in memory
of two Holocaust victims.

Why didn't you tell them
you were planning

to use the Nazi data?

It never occurred to me.

The data's origins aren't
important to my research.

Its origins weren't important
to you.

Tell me, doctor,
how many people

were exterminated
in the Holocaust?

Objection, relevance,
Your Honor?

Dr. Connor claims to have

"balanced" the data's
Nazi origins

against the potential good
it may provide.

I'm trying to find out
how much she actually knows

about those origins.

I'll give you some leeway here,
counsel, but keep it brief.

Thank you. Dr. Connor?

Six million people died
in the Holocaust.

Sixteen million, doctor.

Six million were Jews.

- Do you know what Babi Yar is?
- No.

It was the largest single act

of genocide of the war.

Thirty-four thousand Jews
slaughtered.

- What about Kristallpacht?
Emily: No.

Neil: Who conceived
the Final Solution?

- Adolf Hitler.
- Adolf Eichmann.

How can you have "balanced
the good against the evil

when you clearly have no idea

of the enormity
of that evil, doctor?

The history of Nazism
wasn't my concern--

Sixteen million dead,
that's not your concern?

I wasn't about to become
a Holocaust scholar

just to do a physiology study,
it wasn't relevant!

You research everything else,
why not this?

Because you just didn't care?

Objection, argumentative!

Neil: Withdrawn.

I have nothing further.

Where the hell
were you in there?

Oh, he has the right
to question you.

Question me?
He was haranguing me!

I didn't conduct those
experiments, Jonathan!

I just want to study them!

Any more objections would have
alienated the jury, Emily

and implied you didn't know
the answers to his questions.

Well, obviously, I didn't.

- Did you?
- No.

It took me four years

to get a grant
for this project.

I am not unsympathetic
to Mr. Rubin's feelings,

but I do not intend to go back
to being a dog labber

just because some old man
can't see

the forest for the trees!!

[instrumental music]

I called Dr. Findlestein.

I want the DNA test.

It'll only confirm
what we already know, Stuart.

She is your daughter.

It's weird.

I-- I-- I was in that room,
what, five minutes?

Most of which I spent
telling myself she was a fraud,

and this feeling
keeps coming up.

It's the same feeling I had
that day we lost Kelsey.

[sighs]
What was the mother like?

She was, she was nice.

Karen.

She was funny. She was smart.

Was she good in bed?

Ann, at that point in my life,

if I got a woman in bed,
it was good.

Obviously, you didn't practice
safe sex.

No, in 1974 "safe sex"
meant not having sex

in a moving vehicle, okay?

Are you okay about this?

It's not the mother

or your relationship with her.

It's the idea

that there's this
stranger out there

that has some kind of claim
on you.

She doesn't have a claim on me.

She gave up
whatever claim she had

when she walked out that door!

She gave it up
but does that mean you can?

No.

No, I don't think I can.

[instrumental music]

One of the S.S. men brought me
into the operating theater.

Next to the table there was a

a large glass tank
filled with water.

There was ice on the water.

They asked me if I would like

to send a message to my family.

Since they were all dead,
I declined.

What happened then, Dr. Schulan?

I was stripped naked.

Then they lifted me
into the tank.

The... pain from the cold
was indescribable.

After about 40 minutes,
I passed out.

And when you woke up?

I was in a bed with two other
naked prisoners,

put there to warm me
with body heat.

It was one of several methods
of rewarming

that the Nazis tested.

I was lucky. I was not thrown
into boiling water.

Dr. Schulan,
how do you feel about the data

from those experiments
being used by Dr. Connor?

If it will save lives,
it should be used--

- God forgive you!
Jonathan: Objection!

If there is a God,
may he let us both find peace.

There is no peace for those
who betray the dead!

- Mr. Rubin, that's enough.
- Kurt, sit down.

Jonathan: Sir, why do you think
the data should be used?

Well, before I retired,
I was a pediatric surgeon.

Like any doctor,
I had patients die...

sometimes painfully.

But I used what I learned
from their deaths

to help others.

If knowledge from Dachau

can help other human beings,

then the suffering
of those who died there...

might begin to have
some meaning.

Jonathan: I have nothing else.

Doctor... how did the Nazis
monitor your body temperature?

They inserted a wire
into my rectum

and another into my mouth.

Neil: Didn't the Nazis
at one time consider

moving all experiments
from Dachau?

Stanley: Yes, they did.
- Why?

Well, because the screams...

from the men and women

were being experimented upon

it was so loud that they
disturbed the families

of the officers
who were stationed there.

Can you ever forgive the Nazis
for what they did?

No. Never.

Can you really blame Mr. Rubin

for seeing Dr. Connor's project

as legitimizing
what the Nazis did?

I appreciate his point of view.

But we, each of us, have
to make our own decisions.

Thank you, doctor.
No further questions.

[instrumental music]

- Karen?
- Stuart?

Stuart Markowitz?

I thought you were dead.

[scoff]

Do I look that bad?

[chuckles] I'm sorry.

Mom, do you know where
the car keys are?

Oh, God.

Mom was gonna take a second
mortgage out on the house

in order to pay for college.

I couldn't let her do that.

She's made too many
sacrifices for me.

One more and she's up
for canonization.

[chuckles] Sarah.

So you hired
some low-rent lawyer

who wouldn't ask
too many questions

when you told him
your mother was dead.

I didn't want to,

but I knew you'd never go
for the idea.

Yeah.

You were right.

So that's why you came
to see me? For the money?

I also wanted to meet you,
I guess.

Mom told me your name,

she said you were a lawyer,

so I just checked
with the State Bar.

I wanted to know my father.

And why did you back out?

I didn't know you had a son.

And...

Well it wasn't until I saw you

and your wife in the meeting,

that it actually hit me how much

I was disrupting your lives.

I just couldn't do it.

Wow, here's an interesting one.

A "Viennese oyster."

The woman puts her feet
behind her head--

I know it.

I thought you might.

Julie, these people
are incredible.

I mean, sharing these
sexual fantasies

in bed is one thing,

but... doing it in public...

You know what my favorite
fantasy is?

No, what?

I come home from
the 11 o'clock night cast ...

I slip into a hot bath...

I feel the warm water
swirl and flow

between my legs...

I lean back
and close my eyes...

I feel the water from
the faucet

caress my ankle like a kiss...

And when I open my eyes...

he's there.

Crouched by the tub,

kissing the calf of my leg...

and slowly, working his
way up...

my eyes meet his...

Julie. I-- I--...

- I can't. I can't. I'm sorry.
- Why not?

Listen, you're a beautiful woman

and if we'd met a year ago,

you might've been
the greatest thing

that ever happened to me--

I still can be.

I live with someone

and I love her.

And I can't...

I won't hurt her.

God, that turns me on.

Julie, look. I gotta go.

[screams]

Arnie. What's wrong?

Oh. Oh. Oh, the pain.

It's like a knife.

What, did you hurt your back?
Here, let me--

No, I'm fine. I-- I'm okay--

Arnie, I'm not gonna rape you.
Here, sit down.

[screams]

Arnie, where is this pain?

In my, uh... left... testicle.

You know, I'm trying not
to take this personally,

but it isn't easy.

Maybe it's just
like a charley horse.

Maybe you just need
to work it out.

No! Ah! Ah! No kidding.

Julie, I--
I'm in real pain here.

Well, we better get you
to a hospital.

Can you... walk?

Yeah, I'm... I'm fine,
as long as it,

as long as it doesn't touch
the inside of my thigh.

Ah! Ah!

Could you give my coat?

- Come on.
- Who says romance is dead?

[sighs]

How are you feeling?

It hurts even with it touching
the table.

Why don't you bend your knees?

That way... you're not making
contact.

Ah!

- Arnie?
- Rox.

Roxanne: I called the studio.

They said you were at her house
and you had an accident.

What the hell are you doing?

I'm just trying to make him
more comfortable.

- I'll bet.
Arnie: Rox.

They don't know
how this happened.

It might be a hernia...

I-- I-- I may have sprained
a muscle in my... groin.

You know, I'm probably
not needed here any more.

You're gonna be fine, Arnie.

Roxanne'll take care of you.

Well, this is a new one,
even for you.

Rox, I swear nothing happened.
We were just working.

At her house?

Mr. Becker, I'm Dr. Stewart.

I'm a urologist.

- Rox, don't leave!
- Are you kidding?

I'm thinking
of selling tickets.

Okay, now I'm going to have
to palpate the area.

Just... relax.

Stewart: Does this hurt?
- No.

How about this?

[screams]

Ahh! Oh! Yeah.

Mr. Becker, you have a torsion.

A man's testicles are suspended
inside his scrotal sac

by the spermatic cords.

These cords can sometimes
become twisted.

How did it happen?

Any number of ways.
A sharp, sudden movement...

slipping on a wet surface...

Don't worry though,
it's easily correctable.

We just go inside
and rotate the testis

until the cord is untwisted.

You have to cut them open?

Yes, but it's only
minor surgery.

We give you a spinal block
to numb it

and then we go in.

But I do have to warn you
when the cord twisted,

it can cut off
the flow of blood.

We could open it up to discover

the testicle
has turned gangrenous.

Gangrene?

In that case, of course,
we'd have to remove it.

Oh!

Auschwitz... Dachau...

Bergen-Belsen ... Treblinka.

Sixteen million human lives.

That's the entire population
of New York

and Los Angeles combined.

Imagine this city empty...

Every human being
who lives here dead

in the gas chambers.

It's too much for us
to take in.

We can't help abstracting it.

But that is the one thing
we cannot do.

If someone like
Sigmund Rasher

proposed doing his hideous
experiments today,

society would never permit it.

So why is it alright to use it

after the atrocities have
been committed?

What kind of deterrence

does that pose to
unethical researchers?

Dr. Connor signed a contract

that requires the use
of ethical medical standards.

Now by using the Dachau
experiments in her work,

she has violated
those standards,

especially since
she is unable to show

that the Dachau data is of any
compelling value.

First we ignore
the lessons of history...

then we forget...

then we repeat them.

Tell those who would
draw comfort from this...

we shall never forget.

Dr. Emily Connor is not a Nazi.

She abhors, as all of us do,

the methods by which this data
was gained.

The data is there,

and there are many respected
scientists who find it valid.

For her to ignore it is to
ignore the pain and suffering

which she might be able
to alleviate.

And that, ladies and gentlemen,
is the one thing

she cannot do.

Dr. Stanley Schulan,

a survivor of
the hypothermia experiments,

believes she should be allowed
to try.

Mr. Rubin is a good man

with a tragic history.

His concern is understandable.

Respect what he has to say.
It's important.

But give the situation
the perspective he can't.

Let Dr. Connor honor the dead

by honoring the living.

Don't stand between her
and the lives

she might be able to save.

[laughs]

What?

"To Arnold who brings new
meaning to the phrase

'Hoist on his own petard.'"

Well, at least the family
jewels are as good as new.

Better.

The doctor told me
he tacked them down,

while he was in there.

"Tacked them down?"

You know, sutured them
to the inside of the scrotum.

So they wouldn't get
twisted up again.

Rox, about Julie...

I swear nothing happened.

Only because you sprained
your testicle.

No, no, even before that.

I admit I thought about it, okay?

But when push came to shove--

So to speak--

It was weird, Rox,
for the first time in my life

there was this...

I don't know...

there was this, like,
circuit breaker inside of me,

and it just tripped...

and I said no.

I couldn't believe it myself,
but I know

how hard it is for you
to believe, but I swear...

it's true.

Okay, nothing happened.

You don't sound
like you mean it.

Don't push it, Arnie.

I'm doing the best that I can.

Rubin: If I had hired you,
Mr. Rollins,

could you have argued
my case as convincingly?

I thought your side
was very convincing.

The jury may, too.

I don't expect them to.

Even Mr. Robertson thought
we had a tough case.

Then why wouldn't you even
discuss a settlement?

How do you make a settlement
with evil, Mr. Rollins?

Each time you refuse
to look it in the face

and say 'No more,'

it creeps a little closer.

Do I have to tell this to you,
with your people's history?

No.

When my father was told
that he could

no longer teach
at the University,

he stayed home and tutored.

When the students
stopped coming,

he found work
running errands.

When the Nazis came
for our neighbors,

he comforted us by saying that
sanity must return,

if we could just wait it out.

And when the Nazis finally
ordered my father to choose

the next men to die
at Auschwitz,

I believe he understood at last
and he killed himself.

I'm sorry.

I didn't come here just
to win, Mr. Rollins.

I came to...

bring a warning.

Do you think anybody heard me?

Yeah. I do.

The jury is in.

Donald: Has the jury
reached a verdict?

Yes, we have, Your Honor.

In the matter of The Simon
and Katherine Rubin Foundation

versus University of California
and Emily Connor,

we find for the defendant.

Oh, thank God.

Donald: Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury,

thank you for your service.

This court is adjourned.

So, what's the latest?

Well, I...

I think I finally talked
her into letting me send Sarah

to college for one year.

And... if that goes well,
we go on from there.

Unless you have
a problem with it.

No, no,
it's the right thing to do.

It's just hard to believe
that this Karen

wouldn't have come to you
for help before.

Well, it's not hard to believe
if you know her.

I mean, this is a woman
who started

her own catering business,

it goes belly-up
in the recession,

and she refuses
to go Chapter 11.

She's going to pay off each
and every creditor.

That's the way she is.

It's admirable.

Not terribly realistic.

No, it's not.

So, I told her,
look, if you're determined

to go about it this way,
at least let me help you set up

a more structured schedule.
So she's gonna...

she's gonna... let me do that.

That's very nice of you.

I have to do
somethin' here, honey.

Absolutely. I understand.

She sounds like
a very interesting person.

You wanna have 'em to dinner?

Why don't we have her
and Sarah to dinner next week?

I-- I I think it might be
a little soon.

She's still getting used
to the idea of accepting

help from me, I-- I...

I don't want to push it.

Maybe down the line.

Okay. Fine.

[sighs] It's just hard
to get used to the idea

that you have
this entire family out there

that I'm not a part of.

Honey...

Oh, that could be Ned.
He was gonna call.

Hello?

Oh, hi, Karen.
How ya doin'?

No, it's no problem.
No problem at all.

Yeah, I'm gonna take care
of it tomorrow.

Yeah, Claremont does have more

individualized instruction, but
I don't think

we should discount Stanford,
you know.

No, it's not that much more.

Hey, let me worry about
the money, okay?

Okay.
