Mrs. Ruskin?
1:31:17
I'm Peter Fallow.
I want to express my sympathies.

1:31:20
How very kind.
1:31:22
Did you know Arthur?
1:31:24
Actually, I was quite close to him
when he died.

1:31:29
I have reprobated myself,
over and over again, for not being there.

1:31:34
I understand that
you're Sherman McCoy's lover.

1:31:37
Excuse me?
1:31:38
And that you were driving the car
on the night of that unfortunate accident.

1:31:43
-Sherman would never tell you that.
-Tell me what happened that night.

1:31:47
Listen, Mr. Peckerhead.
1:31:49
I am here for my husband's funeral.
Understand?

1:31:53
Go away. Disappear. Disintegrate.
1:31:59
Yes, yes, yes. This story
was getting better every day.

1:32:03
I could smell it.
1:32:05
Hell, some of it was even true.
1:32:08
I was back on track.
I was a reporter again.

1:32:16
You're a muckraking yellow journalist!
1:32:19
You print this story without so much
as a by-your-leave to me or the Reverend.

1:32:24
Who do you think you are?
1:32:26
For chrissakes, calm down.
1:32:28
You have to keep your voices down.
1:32:32
Sherman McCoy was not driving the car.
I think I can prove it.

1:32:37
So what?
1:32:38
This is our case. Right here.
The hospital is the guilty party.

1:32:42
The hospital?
1:32:43
The hospital. A young man comes in
with a cerebral concussion.

1:32:47
They treat him for a broken wrist.
1:32:49
That is our case. That is the lawsuit
we'll bring against the hospital.

1:32:53
That is what we have been
working toward all this time.

1:32:57
And you are confusing the issue.
