Grunstadt. Doubt you've heard
of me. But your work...

:50:09
I've read it in the Law Review.
Admired it deeply. Who hasn't?

:50:13
It's profound. Yes, austere.
Absolutely austere.

:50:18
Sit down, you're not made of glass.
:50:20
Yes, indeed. How I envy you, sir.
:50:23
You work in the quiet of your library
and the world does not interrupt.

:50:28
That was right across the plate!
:50:30
But me, I labour in the vineyard.
You've heard of the Dilg case?

:50:36
- Yes, yes.
- There's luck for you.

:50:39
First case I've had in 10 years
that drew any outside attention.

:50:44
Slide, you idiot, slide!
:50:46
And right in the middle of the trial,
the swine skips out.

:50:49
- I was preparing a brilliant opinion.
- Before the trail was finished?

:50:54
- They hadn't brought all the evidence in.
- But he was as guilty as Judas.

:50:59
- How do you know?
- The clearest thing.

:51:01
The town malcontent.
Holy terror, even as a boy.

:51:06
Throw it, throw it, you blockhead!
:51:09
You consider it ethical to judge a man
without all the evidence?

:51:12
My dear fellow, he broke jail.
That proves it, doesn't it?

:51:15
Even a library philosopher
like you would have to admit that.

:51:20
Miss Shelley, I think we've had
enough baseball for today.

:51:23
- You're not going.
- I have work to do.

:51:26
That's too bad.
:51:28
Great thing, this baseball. Gets the
legal cobwebs out of the brain.

:51:34
I have this box. Any time
you'd like to see a game...

:51:37
- Thank you.
- Sit down, will you?

:51:42
You play very well.
Where did you learn?

:51:45
My father. He was the kind
of man who resented work.

:51:49
It interfered with
chess, and argument.

:51:53
You're a man of many parts.
:51:57
I look forward to a very
pleasant summer.
