1:18:02
I must tell you I'm disappointed in you.
1:18:06
- I'm really very disappointed.
- How's that?
1:18:08
You've reduced yourself from veiled threats
and insinuations to vaudeville.
1:18:15
What did you expect to achieve
by this tasteless stunt?
1:18:18
Did you expect me to throw myself
at your feet confessing?
1:18:21
- I didn't think you'd do that.
- Then what good did it do?
1:18:24
I just add it up with all the other details.
1:18:27
After a while,
you see what might have happened.
1:18:30
"Might have" won't hold up in court.
1:18:33
You'd be thrown out for lack of evidence.
1:18:36
But, you know, justice is strange, counsellor.
1:18:39
With some people,
it's not enough to be acquitted.
1:18:42
With some people,
it's necessary to convince the public
1:18:45
by producing the guilty party.
1:18:47
I'm familiar with the Perry Mason
school of justice. It's not a bad tactic.
1:18:52
Threaten to ruin my reputation
by accusation, create a doubt about me.
1:18:57
But then I could show
that you were hounding me,
1:19:00
maliciously persecuting me.
1:19:02
You're playing a weak hand.
1:19:05
Either arrest me or get out of here.
1:19:10
I'm going to have to tell you the truth.
1:19:13
The department took me off the case.
1:19:16
There's nothing concrete,
nothing to give to a DA.
1:19:20
There's a murder in Malibu
they want me to look into.
1:19:23
And you couldn't bear to leave
without saying goodbye.
1:19:26
That's right. That's right.
1:19:37
After all that, I almost forgot to say it.
Goodbye, Mrs Williams.
1:19:42
Goodbye, Lieutenant.
