:43:07
Thanks for coming in.
:43:08
Sorry we have to meet
under such circumstances.
:43:13
You don't mind if we tape-record
our conversation? Matter of record.
:43:18
You know Mr. Hyland, right?
Your teachers' union rep.
:43:21
Am I being questioned?
:43:23
They say you've accused them
of stealing your watch.
:43:26
And if that's the case, I need
to address the accusation.
:43:31
Beginning of 6th period,
Cesar admired my watch.
:43:34
I believe his exact words were
"Can I have it?"
:43:38
Bottom line is, I'd like my watch back.
:43:41
Anything else?
:43:42
I asked him to empty his pockets
and he refused.
:43:45
Is that true?
:43:46
No way! He never asked me that!
:43:48
I don't go around taxing teachers.
I got no damn watch!
:43:51
Calm down.
:43:53
Empty your pockets now.
:43:58
Mr. Littleton, may we see
what' s in your pockets too?
:44:04
I'd like a locker search.
:44:07
Good. I could use the money.
I'll sue your ass.
:44:10
You're excused, gentlemen.
:44:12
Take your things, please.
Thank you very much.
:44:21
Do you have the time?
:44:24
It' s 3 : 22, Mr. Sanchez.
:44:27
3 : 22. Thanks.
:44:31
Mr. Garfield, let me try
to explain something.
:44:34
I work very hard to try and think
of our students here at Adams...
:44:38
...as my clients.
:44:39
We can't have another lawsuit
like we had on that Blackwell case.
:44:43
That one cost the district
a quarter of a million dollars.
:44:48
So I need you to be straight with me.
:44:50
Did you physically see Cesar
take your watch?
:44:53
No, I didn't.
:44:56
Gentlemen...
:44:58
...unless we have reasonable cause
to show they took your watch...
