I don't miss dinner all the time.
We all ate together last night.
:54:06
You were reading the whole time.
:54:31
There's something about this thing
I don't understand, Mr. Masry.
:54:36
If PG&E messed with our water...
:54:38
...why would they say anything
about it to us at all?
:54:41
Why not just keep quiet about it?
:54:43
To establish a statute of limitations.
:54:46
In a case like this,
you only have one year...
:54:49
...from the time you learn about
the problem to file suit.
:54:52
So PG&E figures...
:54:54
..."We'll let the cat out of the bag.
Tell them the water isn't perfect.
:54:58
If we can ride out the year
with no one suing...
:55:01
...we'll be in the clear forever."
:55:04
But they told us more than a year ago.
:55:06
-That's okay. We're not suing.
-Not yet.
:55:09
All we're doing
is using this information...
:55:12
...to get you a nice purchase
price on your house.
:55:15
And you two, a comparable
retroactive bonus on your sale price.
:55:19
PG&E still looks good
to their shareholders.
:55:22
They're not in a lawsuit.
:55:24
All they're doing is buying property.
:55:28
Doesn't say how much
this thing's gonna cost us.
:55:32
My fee is 40% of whatever
you get awarded.
:55:44
Boy, do I know how you feel.
:55:47
The first time I heard that number,
I said, "You're kidding me."
:55:51
Forty goddamned percent?
:55:53
I'm the one that's injured, and
this joker sits at a desk all day...
:55:57
...and he wants
almost half of my reward?
:55:59
-Erin, can l--?
-But then...
