:59:00
- Can you spot Mary Pilant?
- She didn't come back after lunch.
:59:04
I think you'd better give up
on that one.
:59:07
Doctor, you stated that the defendant
might or might not...
:59:10
have been able to distinguish...
:59:12
the difference between right and wrong,
but it wouldn't have made a difference.
:59:15
- Am I right? Is that what you said?
- Approximately, yes.
:59:17
Did you mean that at the time
of the shooting...
:59:19
he could have known the difference
between right and wrong?
:59:21
He might have, yes.
:59:22
Dr. Smith...
:59:24
if the defendant could have known
what he was doing...
:59:27
and could have known it was wrong,
how can you come here...
:59:30
and testify that he was legally insane?
:59:32
I'm not saying
he was legally insane.
:59:34
I'm saying that
in his mental condition...
:59:36
it would not have made any difference
whether he knew right from wrong.
:59:39
He would still have shot Quill.
:59:43
Are you willing to rest your testimony
in this case on this opinion?
:59:47
Yes, I am.
:59:50
Your Honor, I'd like to ask
for a short recess.
:59:53
The attorneys for the people would like
to meet with Mr. Biegler in chambers.
:59:58
- Glad to oblige, Your Honor.
- Short recess.
1:00:01
The jury will remain.
1:00:13
Someday, I'm going to
horrify tradition...
1:00:15
and lay a dense, blue cloud...
1:00:18
of tobacco smoke
in that hallowed courtroom.
1:00:21
What's on your mind, Mr. Dancer?
1:00:23
Your Honor, in view of Dr. Smith's
testimony, I thought perhaps...
1:00:26
the defense might like
to change their plea.
1:00:27
- Change it to what?
- Guilty, of course.
1:00:30
No, we'll still go for broke.
1:00:32
Hell, Paulie, you know a guy's
not considered legally nuts...
1:00:35
in Michigan unless
he didn't know right from wrong.
1:00:37
- Why don't you get this over with?
- Your Honor, will you turn to page 486?
1:00:41
- What's that?
- Appears to be a law book, Mr. Lodwick.
1:00:47
Oh, I'm sorry, Your Honor.
1:00:49
I make those things
to help me think sometimes.
1:00:52
- For perch?
- No, it was for frog.
1:00:54
What case is he citing?
1:00:56
We gig frogs
in my part of the country.
1:00:58
It's the same up here.
I'm a trout man, myself...
