Now, you've heard the testimony
of this Miller.

1:08:09
- Is any part of it true?
- None.

1:08:13
Lieutenant, do you have any idea why he
might come here with a tale like that?

1:08:17
No, sir.
1:08:20
Have you ever talked with this man?
1:08:24
What did you talk about?
1:08:28
Nothing important.
1:08:30
Certainly, nothing about
my personal life or my feelings.

1:08:34
That's all I wanted to know.
1:08:36
Lt. Manion...
1:08:38
have you ever had
any sort of...

1:08:41
trouble with Miller?
1:08:45
I don't know. What do you mean?
An argument? Something like that?

1:08:47
Did you ever attack--
physically attack him?

1:08:52
Your lawyer can't answer
the question for you, Lieutenant.

1:08:55
- Did you ever physically attack Miller?
- I wouldn't call it an attack, exactly.

1:08:59
I pushed his head
against the bars one day.

1:09:01
- Why?
- He said something ugly about my wife.

1:09:04
Do you remember pushing or bumping
his head against the bars?

1:09:08
Sure. I just told you.
1:09:10
Then this was not
dissociative reaction.

1:09:13
The defendant isn't qualified
to answer that.

1:09:15
Lt. Manion...
1:09:17
wasn't your action against Barney Quill
much the same...

1:09:20
as your action against Miller
and against the lieutenant...

1:09:22
that you struck
at the cocktail party?

1:09:24
All in the heat of anger with a willful,
conscious desire to hurt or kill?

1:09:29
I don't remember
my action against Quill.

1:09:32
How long had you known that your wife
was running around with Barney Quill?

1:09:37
I never knew anything like that.
1:09:40
I trust my wife.
1:09:42
I suppose you just beat her up
occasionally for the fun of it.

1:09:45
Nothing has been established
to permit a question like that.

1:09:48
He keeps implying things
without getting to the point.

1:09:50
Let him ask the lieutenant,
did he ever beat his wife?

1:09:54
I'll sustain the objection.
1:09:56
Would you like to rephrase
your question, Mr. Dancer?
