1:50:00
- In a minute.
- Sorry.

1:50:02
Here is the charge against you.
1:50:08
Attempted first degree murder.
1:50:13
Actually I'm accused of wounding
my wife with a gunshot.

1:50:17
How did that happen?
Look, I'm not interrogating you.

1:50:20
That's not my line of duty.
This is a private conversation.

1:50:24
I know, sir,
and I appreciate it.

1:50:29
With your permission,
I'll tell you all about it.

1:50:33
Go ahead!
1:50:36
In two words, we had a fight,
my wife and I.

1:50:39
She threatened me with a shotgun.
I wanted to take it from her

1:50:42
but it went off
and she was wounded.

1:50:46
I wish it had been me.
Anyway, she recovered fast.

1:50:50
- As fast as that?
- She's in perfect shape.

1:50:53
So why didn't she
withdraw charges?

1:50:56
Because Committing Magistrate
M. Labourdette told her not to.

1:51:00
You see I'm not everyone's
cup of tea, sir.

1:51:03
- You think it's the magistrate?
- My attorney certainly does.

1:51:08
You believe a magistrate can
pressure a witness like that.

1:51:11
Especially a woman,
jealous and in love.

1:51:14
How do you know my
wife is in love?

1:51:17
Because she withdrew her
charges yesterday.

1:51:22
- So I'm going to be released.
- Probably.

1:51:25
As soon as the magistrate
dismisses the case.

1:51:28
Maybe not tomorrow,
but soon.

1:51:36
You don't seem very pleased.
1:51:42
What are you thinking about?
Tell me.

1:51:47
Perhaps I can help.
1:51:59
I'm coming, sir.
