1:04:00
Thank you.
1:04:02
I have studied...
1:04:04
I have spent some time
studying the indictment.

1:04:07
You'll have to explain
that word to me.

1:04:10
- An indictment?
- Yes.

1:04:12
Is a bill of particulars...
1:04:14
- All right. Yes.
- In which is alleged...

1:04:16
No. I cannot allow that.
1:04:18
Nothing is alleged.
Everything is proved.

1:04:21
- Please, wait a second.
- I cannot allow that.

1:04:24
If I may? From whatever
you feel is established...

1:04:26
The issue here
is not what I feel.

1:04:28
It is not my feelings...
1:04:30
but the feelings of women
and men, your superiors...

1:04:33
who have been polled...
1:04:34
and have ruled
that you are negligent...

1:04:36
that you are guilty and
are not to be given tenure...

1:04:39
that you are to be disciplined.
1:04:41
That is what
the tenure committee has said.

1:04:44
That is what my lawyer said,
for what you did in class...

1:04:47
for what you did in that office.
1:04:49
They're going to discharge me.
1:04:52
As full well they should!
1:04:57
You don't understand. Fine.
1:04:59
What has led you to this point?
1:05:01
Not your sex, not your race,
not your class.

1:05:04
Your own actions.
And you're angry.

1:05:06
You ask me here.
What do you want?

1:05:08
You want to charm me.
You want to convince me.

1:05:11
You want me to recant.
I will not recant.

1:05:14
Why should I?
What I say is right.

1:05:15
You were going to tell me that
you have a wife and child...

1:05:19
that you have a career...
1:05:21
and that you've worked
for 20 years for this.

1:05:24
Do you know
what you've worked for?

1:05:26
Power! For power.
Do you understand?

1:05:30
And you sit there and tell me
stories about your house...

1:05:33
and all about private schools
and privilege...

1:05:35
and how you are entitled
to buy, to spend...

1:05:39
to mock, to summon.
All your stories.

1:05:49
All your silly, weak guilt.
1:05:52
It's all about privilege...
1:05:55
and you won't know it.
Don't you see?

1:05:57
You've worked twenty years
for the right to insult me.
