:52:02
Thank you.
:52:17
Gentlemen.
:52:23
My attorney,
Mr. Whitlow.

:52:25
Mr. Whitlow.
Mr. Whitlow.

:52:27
Well, let's get
right down to business.

:52:29
Heggs, as you know,
I'm suing you personally,

:52:31
and Beckett, I'm suing
the Rachel Courier Express,

:52:33
of which you are
editor and owner.

:52:35
Now, if I win this suit,
and I will,

:52:38
I'm going to
take the paper.

:52:40
And if I take Beckett's paper, where
are you going to work, Mr. Heggs?

:52:44
I don't know. Chicago Trib,
Pittsburgh Press maybe.

:52:48
Now, I don't wanna sue and waste
all that time in court,

:52:51
so I have an
alternative to offer.

:52:53
Simply publish the fact
that this story is...

:52:55
a figment of Heggs' imagination
and I'll call off the suit.

:52:58
What do you say? In other words,
you want a retraction. Is that it?

:53:02
Exactly.
:53:05
Luther, tell me once more that what
you said happened really happened.

:53:10
It happened.
The wall did open?

:53:12
Whoosh, right open.
And the organ?

:53:13
Played and played
and played.

:53:15
Nobody at it? Not a soul, just cobwebs.
:53:18
And the shears in the
throat? Shears in the throat!

:53:25
No retraction.
:53:27
All right,
we'll see you in court.

:53:30
Heggs, when I get you on the
stand, I'm gonna tear you to shreds.

:53:34
Just who do you
think you are?

:53:36
A little pip-squeak like you
fighting us in court?

:53:39
Just who do you
think you are?

:53:42
Drop dead!
That's who!

:53:43
Right, Mr. Beckett? Mr. Beck... Mr.
Beck... Mr. Beckett? Mr. Beckett?

:53:51
Boy, you should've heard me
telling them off back there.

:53:53
Well, you better save your breath for
the courtroom. You're gonna need it.
