:19:02
You know something? I think
you might be a little bit afraid.
:19:06
- Afraid of what?
- That you might get licked.
:19:12
You know, there's only one thing more
devious than a Philadelphia lawyer...
:19:16
and that's an Irish lawyer.
:19:18
Pass the salt.
:19:22
Put it down.
:19:31
- Hello there.
- I usually answer to the name Paul.
:19:35
You gonna have some more jokes?
:19:37
Not unless you want to be
the comic.
:19:39
Oh, I brought you some cigarettes.
:19:43
- Oh, thanks.
- Peace?
:19:45
- Sure.
- Fine, fine. Now, Lieutenant...
:19:48
there are four ways
I can defend murder.
:19:51
Number one, it wasn't murder.
It was suicide or accidental.
:19:55
Number two, you didn't do it. Number
three, you were legally justified...
:19:58
like the protection of your home
or self-defense.
:20:00
Number four,
the killing was excusable.
:20:04
Where do I fit in
to this rosy picture?
:20:06
I'll tell you where you don't fit in.
You don't fit in any of the first three.
:20:10
Why? Why wouldn't I be legally justified
in killing the man who raped my wife?
:20:14
Time element.
:20:16
If you'd caught him in the act, the
shooting might have been justified...
:20:18
but you didn't catch him in the act,
and you had time to bring the police...
:20:21
and you didn't do that either.
:20:23
You're guilty of murder--
premeditated and with vengeance.
:20:26
That's first-degree murder
in any court of law.
:20:28
- Are you telling me to plead guilty?
- When I advise a cop out, you'll know.
:20:32
- Cop out?
- That's plead guilty and ask for mercy.
:20:34
If you're not telling me to cop out,
what are you telling me to do?
:20:38
I'm not telling you to do anything.
:20:39
I just want you to understand
the letter of the law.
:20:45
- Go on.
- Go on with what?
:20:50
Whatever it is you're getting at.
:20:56
You know, you're very bright,
Lieutenant.
:20:59
Now let's see how really bright
you can be.
