:04:07
Fuckin' emergency rooms

:04:10
son of a bitches always pop you
at midnight
:04:12
when all they got is a Chinese intern
with a dull spoon

Look at these suckers scramblin' around
What for?
:04:22
My Puerto Rican ass ain't supposed
to have made it this far

:04:56

Mr Brigante, there are 56 cases
on the court's docket for this morning

:05:35
Or absoIution, or benediction,
or anything
:05:38
other than an incredibIe
convergence of circumstances
:05:42
which you've expIoited
to your cIient's benefit
:05:44
Your Honor, these circumstances
that you speak of
:05:46
incIude iIIegaI wiretaps
and tainted evidence
:05:49
This is a cIassic
''fruit of the poisoned tree'' situation
:05:52
I think after five years
of unjust incarceration
:05:55
it's reasonabIe to request Mr ^Brigante
be induIged his right to speak
:05:59
Okay, Mr ^Brigante, I'm aII ears
