:43:05
Are you what is affectionately
called a "bean counter"?
:43:08
Yes, sir.
:43:11
- Are you the head bean counter?
- Yes, sir.
:43:14
- So you see a lot of reports in your job?
- Yes.
:43:18
- You take these reports and make...
- Bitch.
:43:22
You gave him Patricola.
:43:28
I'm sorry, Michael.
I guess it's in the genes.
:43:31
...a defective part.
:43:34
You make a decision whether
to replace that part in a recall
:43:37
or suffer the consequences of a lawsuit,
whichever's cheaper.
:43:41
Is that correct?
:43:42
I don't make the decisions,
I just analyze the reports.
:43:47
Reports, yes.
Let's talk about them.
:43:49
Do you recall one questioning the safety
of the 1985 Meridian model?
:43:56
Yes.
:44:02
- Your Honor...
- Mr. Quinn?
:44:05
May we approach?
Defense requests a conference in chambers.
:44:09
- And, Your Honor...
- Yes?
:44:11
Lead counsel only.
:44:16
All right, Fred. What's on your mind?
:44:18
Your Honor, there's been
an appalling conspiracy.
:44:21
One that has compromised our case.
I demand a mistrial.
:44:25
- Unbelievable.
- Let's hear it.
:44:28
Miss Ward's turned over
privileged information to her father.
:44:32
And he's accepted it, in flagrant violation
of every principle of legal ethics I know.
:44:38
- Which one would that be, Fred?
- Enough, Jed. This isn't a joke.
:44:42
The joke is you're being asked
to consider legal ethics argument
:44:48
from the boss of Michael Grazier.
:44:50
Michael Grazier no longer works
for Quinn Califan. He's a closed issue.
:44:55
- Ballast off a sinking ship.
- Listen to me, you son of a bitch!
:44:58
- I'll have the state bar discipline you.
- Do it! Please, do it.
