I'm late Judge ?? Hey, al.
How we doin', sunshine? Mr.
Palmer, the court has repeatedly Directed you not to refer to the stenographer as "sunshine.
" Well, maybe she should stop brightening everybody's day With the smile of hers, that's what she should do.
Mr.
Palmer, for the last time, i will ask you, Please stop wasting the court's time.
Perhaps you should tell him?? No, that's what you are, with a capital "h.
" Judge, as for your time, it was my hope To settle this little dispute, but my good friend al - I am not-- - Over here refused to even meet with me, That's what he did, hence-- Yes, because i've suffered the stench and revulsion Of meeting with you before, and for the record, The idea of your friendship makes me want to throw up.
Looks like somebody's got a bug up.
Am i right, jerry? Gimme a pop, my man.
Tell you what, judge, My goal was to give mr.
Beckham here some money-- Heaps of it, truth be told-- But mr.
Bug-Up-His-Snoot refused all offers and-- My client's daughter was murdered as a direct result Of your client's conduct.
Money is not about to make him whole, nor will it have any-- But money is what lawsuits are about, al.
Am i right, jerry? Two pops for a yes.
This case could have settled, judge, Should have settled, would have settled, But mr.
Tongue-Flapper here likes to get on his soapbox.
That's what he does.
Your time is being wasted here, i agree, But not by yours truly.
My client has the right to sue the party who wronged him.
That's why we're here.
And as for what lawsuits are about, mr.
Palmer-- Flap, flap, flap-- Only man i know who can fire up and shoot a breeze at the same time, You big hoot, you.
Put a button it for me, jerry.
Bring it home.
sync:frs@¾²¾² So are you two getting serious? No, serious? Look, we just started dating, shirley.
You're having sex? I-I don't think that's really a discussion we need to have, do you? Uh, i'll have it.
Oh, my god.
- My god.
- Oh! - You look exactly the same.
- Oh.
- It's so good to see you.
- Another old boyfriend? The oldest.
I can't believe it.
What has it been, 30, 40 years? Oh, i don't know.
Something like that.
I-I actually came 'cause i could use your help, shirl.
I've gotten myself into a little bit of trouble.
- Tell me.
- Uh, well Things haven't been going exactly Well for me lately.
And by "lately," i should say since the war, The one in vietnam.
I heard you hit a rough patch.
Yeah, well Had my good times, bad times, like most folks, but At least i managed to stay out of jail, by god, Until, uh, maybe now.
What happened? Well, i--The police arrested me for Seems i ate a seal.
Y-You ate a seal? Well, i'm a fisherman.
You know me.
It's in my blood.
Problem is i'm a-- I'm a lousy fisherman.
And, well See, what happens is i go two, three hours without a nibble, And then i-I pick up my double-Aught and i just boom! And shoot myself a seal! I mean, they're good eating.
They--They really are.
And plus Cupboard's a little bare, truth be told.
You're under the impression they want actual jail time here? I shot more than one.
They're very good eating.
He served in vietnam, foregoing college when he got home.
I--I'd heard that he fell on hard times, but i- I hadn't really kept in touch.
How many seals are we talking about? I don't know.
I--I'm not sure he's altogether sound.
He--He thinks ashcroft trojan-Horsed the public defender's office.
- Denny.
- Shirley.
Carl.
Denny, i'm--I'm feeling a draft.
Do you not feel it? Let me tell you something, if we had a draft, We'd put a real surge on those terrorists in baghdad, And we wouldn't have to fight this war with mercenaries, At a fraction of the cost.
You can quote me on that.
- How's it going - Hmm.
What? Oh, i'll bet you think I don't know that i'm walking around in my boxers.
For your information, i know full well i'm not wearing pants.
And here i was, underestimating you.
I spilled something on them.
Choice was to go around looking incontinent or eccentric.
Which would you choose? You might choose not to walk around at all.
- Just a thought.
- Sit, on my own, in my room? Life's a cabaret, man.
He is getting worse.
You do realize that.
I'll talk to him.
And i want to spend the rest of my life with you.
Jody - Will you marry me? - Aww.
Uh, steve, uh, i don't know what to say.
I-I We broke up.
It's the reason why i'm on this program.
I--I'm trying to move on with my life.
I know, and i-I want to start over You and me.
I can't marry you, steve.
Oh, jeez.
I--It's time for me to move on.
I--I've told you this.
I It's okay, it's okay.
Mr.
Beckham, that was your daughter on the talk show? Yes.
She had been somehow convinced by the show's producers To go on and discuss her relationship problems In front of a national television audience.
And steve was her boyfriend? Ex-Boyfriend, and as you can tell, She was totally unprepared for a marriage proposal.
And what happened after the taping of this program? After the airing of the program, Steve went to my daughter's apartment, And he murdered her.
He stabbed her 16 times.
Sir, to your knowledge, Did steve have any history of violence? Yes, he had been physically abusive to jody many times.
That was the primary cause of their breakup.
On two occasions, dy called the police Because he got physical with her, Which she told the television producers.
First of all, it should be said, My heart goes completely out to you.
It also probably should be said There's no mileage on that heart, so in effect,you'd be getting a new one.
- Mr.
Shore.
- He's a quipster,that's what he is.
Sir, your daughter knew this young man better than dr.
Ray Or any of the television producers over at worldwide pictures.
- Am i right about that? - Probably.
And after this television program was taped and aired, Did she have reason to believe This young man might endanger her life? I don't know.
Well she never called the police to say she was in fear.
Did she call you? She said that she was worried about how he might react.
- She told me that.
- Did you do anything? I mean, if a father thought his daughter was in danger, I assume he'd take steps, that's what i assume.
What did you do? The fact is, No reasonable person would've seen this coming.
Right, mr.
Beckham? Not your daughter, not you Nobody.
So - I spoke to the u.
S.
Attorney handling the matter-- - And? And you've been arrested nine times.
Each time, you promise not to do it again, And then boom, there goes another seal.
I'm trying to quit.
Ethan, i-- I'm going to say this as your lawyer and your friend-- I-I don't think you're entirely stable.
Is anybody? Have you thought of seeing a doctor to get any help? Well, i have no insurance.
Well, how can that be? You're a veteran.
Right, there's over two million of us without insurance, shirl.
I mean--George-- Our fearless leader, He cut enrollment for, uh, veterans earning more than $28,000.
For some families When was The last time you saw a doctor? Three years ago.
I was diagnosed as bipolar, Likely suffer from post-Traumatic stress.
I was put on lithium, which helped.
Uh, but since my insurance lapsed, i haven't Taken anything for, you know, a few years, but i'm Still charming.
I'd like to go with a diminished capacity defense.
No! I'm not crazy.
I may have my issues, but i am not insane.
I needed to eat.
You know what would be crazy? What would be crazy is if i just let myself starve to death.
It's not that i can't handle defeat, - But if i lose to melvin palmer-- - Have you ever lost to him? No.
But no matter how hard i smack him down, He just keeps getting back up again.
He reminds me of this inflatable bobo doll i had as a kid.
I'd knock it down, and it would come back up, smiling.
I hated that bobo doll, The way it just kept popping back up, mocking me.
One day i finally Stabbed it.
You stabd your bobo doll? I murdered several of my toys.
Is that bad? Well I sank some boats in a lake, Buried a truck.
I abandoned mr.
Machine in a park.
Did you have any stuffed animals? I only had one, A teddy bear, when i was very young.
Did you kill him? No, of course not.
We did part on bad terms.
He would always judge me in such a I donated him to one of those Used toy banks.
What? What are you doing? Boxing.
Interactive video.
Um, denny, the--The gams not on.
I'm in training.
I can never beat the black guy.
I gotta be ready.
- Oy.
- What? That just sounded a little racist, that's all.
Oh, please.
I'm not racist.
It's the game.
At the easy levels, they give you a scrawny white guy.
At the more difficult levels, big black killer thug Or a muslim terrorist.
Denny, do you want to grab dinner sometime? Why? Well, nothing.
I just thought we'd catch up a little.
- What's the catch? - There's no catch.
It's-- Well, actually, it's my new year's resolution-- Try to reconnect with people i care about, And since i care about you-- Just yea or nay? Yea.
Great, and, um, if you think of it, wear pants.
She loves me.
I knew it.
There was no indication anywhere that this young man could be homicidal.
Well, let's be fair now.
He had been violent.
But he never endangered anybody's life.
Plus, msbeckham had been warned that these tapings were often volatile, That they evoked strong emotional responses from guests.
She signed a waiver.
Did she know that you planned to bring her ex-Boyfriend on? - She was told that we may.
- Oh.
But this was a staple of our program.
We were always bringing the exes on, The abusive fathers.
This is what "dr.
Ray" is all about-- Cathartic confrontation.
Now when you told her that you were gonna Bring on her ex-Boyfriend, did--Did she object? No.
Absolutely not.
So she assumed the risk of being murdered? That's a cheap shot.
Oh, come on, mr.
Hamilton, the staple of your program, As you readily admit, is to inflame, To stir up cathartic confrontation.
Here you had a volatile ex-Boyfriend Who had a history of abuse and physical violence-- She's the person that knew him best, and she never once-- And you were more than tickled to exploit her bad judgment.
By the way, how many times have you rerun That particular episode where he proposed marriage, The one that led to her murder? - I don't know.
- My count is three, Including once after he killed her.
Whenever something bad happens, We all feel a need to blame somebody.
Hell, i do it.
You do it.
We all do it.
I move that this man be sanctioned - Sanctioned? - Or continuing to disrupt my cross-Examination.
- That bug's gone deeper up, that's what it's done.
- It's a deliberate attempt - We need to get an exterminator in here - Distract the jury.
- Before it gets to his brain.
No won-- - It's willful, illegal-- Shut up, you bobo-Head! - You called him that in open court? - It's like he-- I seem to regress to a child when Denny, did you ever murder any of your toys as a child? I shot my flat screen super bowl sunday.
No, but growing up, Did you ever visit your toys with violence? Well, my war toys, i'd blow them up, And some of my sister's dolls, I'd twist their heads off after i finished, um, You know, t-Touching them, and, uh Why are you looking at me like that? Why is everybody looking at me funny these days? What are you doing with the onion? Oh.
Well, i'm having dinner with shirley.
I plan to cry.
Sorry? Well, i remember when she first fell in love with me.
She thought i was vulnerable.
So tonight i plan to cry.
Like, uh, robert frost said, "No tears for the writer, no sex.
" He said, "no tears for the writer, no tears for the reader.
" Whatever.
I'll pull a muskie.
It worked for hillary for about a week.
Only problem is i can't cry Without an onion.
Tear ducts are all shot.
We'd gotten reports some old guy was shooting seals.
We went down to the pier, and we saw him.
In the boston harbor? Yeah, in this 5-Foot, rickety old skiff With a fishing rod and a shotgun.
Did you ever actually see him shoot a seal? On more than one occasion.
He told you he was fishing in order to eat? Yes, but the marine mammal protection act Expressly makes seals a protected species, Which we informed him of many, many times.
I saw in your police report you made mention of my client's mental status.
Yes.
Do youemember what you said? I said he appeared mentally unbalanced.
- You deliberately defied me.
- No, i did not.
I asked you not to make it about that, and you did.
No.
I was just laying the groundwork to negate mental intent, Which is one element of this crime.
I don't want to be called crazy.
- I'm not doing that.
- Yes, you are.
I am a war hero.
I earned the right to be proud.
I am not a victim.
I am not a victim! I don't need anybody feeling sorry for me.
Okay.
I hear you.
Now you need to hear me.
You must let me fight this case on the elements, One element being mental intent.
Otherwise, you're looking at prison.
Denny, do you know what - I'm afraid to even ask.
- Keep a secret? This water pack goes in my pocket, I hit this remote, the water goes through the tubes, Into the wires Tears.
- And the point is? - To show i'm vulnerable.
I need to impress shirley with my sensitivity.
Tip her off, and you're fired.
Well, might the desired effect be blunted by the sight Of all that technology on your cheeks? Ah, we'll cover it with makeup, and if my fa is swollen, I'll tell her i've been drinking.
Denny, this is preposterous, even for you.
This is grounds for the rubber room, even.
- Gosh, carl - That hurts my feelings.
Know what i love about the human spirit? Our compassion.
Our capacity to feel sorry for those in pain.
Hell, we had a case last year-- A woman sued a department store because she tripped over a toddler.
Jury handed her a 6-Figure verdict.
Never mind the fact that ??? Was her own child.
I kid you not.
Juries can get nutty with compassion sometimes.
That man lost his daughter.
Now you wouldn't be human If you didn't want to lessen his pain any way you could.
But let's be fair.
No one could have predicted this, Not even the victim, the one who knew him best.
And by the way, she was the one Who rejected his proposal on national television.
She could've said, "let's talk about this later," But she chose to turn him down with cameras rolling.
And even after it all went wrong, She never said to the police or--Or even to her own father, "Hey, i think he's a risk to my safety.
" Why? She couldn't predict that.
Neither could my client.
As much As you feel for this man-- And you all should, He lost his little girl-- Cry for him, Pray for him, But don't get nutty.
I remember, uh, the movie "network" By paddy chayefsky.
It depicted, uh, the extremes and perversities That television would resort to for the sake of ratings.
It was a film way ahead of its time, And yet, now it seems dated Given the depths to which television has sunk.
I doubt even chayefsky could ever Have imagined putting contestants on a program to eat worms or raw animal parts Or women humiliating themselves, uh, to marry fake millionaires.
One network made a deal For o.
J.
Simpson to do a prime-Time special on how he might have killed his ex-Wife.
Television is a noble beast, isn't it? Well, the shame is, it once was, And to many, it still should be.
Television took us to the moon.
It let us cry together as a nation When a beloved president was assassinated.
Its unflinching and comprehensive coverage in vietnam served to end that war.
Television gave us edward r.
Murrow, Walter cronkite, rod serling, ernie kovacs.
We had shows like "the defenders," - "All in the family.
" We-- - I'm a nostalgia buff myself, But maybe we could stick to current events here.
- How about it, al? - Current events.
How fitting.
One could argue that the steep decline of tv Began with a show called "a current affair," - Which introduced tabloid journalism-- - Headed down memory lane again.
Will you shut up? There used to be Standards of excellence in television.
I'm not talking only about emmys and peabodys, But not so long ago, Broadcasters had a real sense of responsibility.
They took their statutory obligation To operate in the public interest very seriously.
Now the networks look for our guilty pleasures And morbid curiosities, And pander to those with the hope that they'll get us addicted.
Once you get people hooked, you've got 'em, And you have to get people hooked Because everything today is ratings, demographics, Market share, money.
Even the news divisions are now profit centers, Which means that if good-Looking, white-Toothed anchors Have better tvqs than credentialed journalists, You get the eye candy, and if positive coverage of the war in iraq Reaches more households, you get fox news.
In fact, today you can switch back and forth Between the right-Wing news and the left-Wing news.
Whatever happened to huntley and brinkley, John chancellor-- To news that was just the news? Now we have partisan junk, Appealing to the lowest common denominator Which brings us currently to the program at issue, "dr.
Ray.
" Mr.
Palmer said his client couldn't possibly have seen this coming.
Well, that simply isn't true.
This tragedy was inevitable.
It's practically scripted.
It's happened before.
Talk show ambushes have gone awry, leading to murder or suicide.
This isn't a first.
But here's what's truly horrifying-- A tragedy occurred here, a woman was killed, But for the show-- For the show-- The real tragedy was that the killing didn't happen on the show.
- Oh, your honor, i object.
- That would've been the ratings blockbuster.
That would've been the big score everybody was hoping for.
But they had to settle for the next best thing, Which was that the murder became news.
The nightly news is perfectly happy to do the job for them.
They gave "dr.
Ray" All the promotion it could possibly want, Airing sensational clips and graphics from the show Again and again and again.
You see how it all works so beautifully together.
The girl is killed, the show benefits, The news benefits, and we eat it up.
Psychologically damaged people Are paraded onstage To be exploited, Ridiculed, taunted.
Of course this is what we get.
And we stand to get a lot more of it Because it sells, And it costs almost nothing to produce, And what's not to love? Here we had an emotionally unstable ex-Boyfriend With a history of violence armed with a marriage proposal Certain to be rected in front of the world, And the fact that an innocent young woman ended up butchered Was good business for all, just business.
Well, so is a lawsuit.
The most memorable part of the movie "network" Was when howard beale started shouting on national television, "I'm mad as hell, and i'm not going to take it anymore," And the country joined in with him.
You need to join in now.
You need to go back to that room And say you're not gonna sit quietly And let these networks assault decency for profit, You're not going to stand For the exploitation of the disenfranchised, You're sick of the networks debasing a medium They're supposed to be guardians of.
Don't take it anymore.
Please, please get mad as hell And don't take it Anymore.
Did you go to college, sir? No.
I was drafted right out of high school.
When i got back from my tour of duty, well You were diagnosed as bipolar, Suffering from post-Traumatic stress disorder.
You were prescribed lithium.
I'm not crazy.
Ethan, let's-- Let's talk about the seals.
Mainly, i tried to fish.
I was starving.
I harvested some seals.
Did you ever apply for welfare? I don't believe in handouts.
If a man can provide for himself, he should, and i could, Only the federal government wouldn't let me.
I-I n't know what to argue, really.
He's a serial seal killer.
He won't let you argue insanity? Well, i-I couldn't even if he would.
We--We didn't plead it.
All i can say, really, is he lacked the capacity To form the necessary intent to commit the crime.
I'm sure you'll be fine.
Can you imagine? He's out in the harbor in a 5-Foot skiff trying to fish, - A 60-Year-Old man.
- I know.
It's awful.
I feel so badly for him.
And a war veteran D-Denny, are you okay? Well, it's just the thought of a man starving.
- What the- - A fisherman to boot.
I hate it when people starve.
All those little babies in africa Is everything all right? No.
World hunger, darfur, a.
I.
D.
S.
Oh, it's sad, So sad.
G--For god sake, what have you done? Nothing.
I just listened to you.
Stop it.
I found my own voice.
Why do you have little hoses attached to your face the truth.
Well, it's just that i-I-- I didn't-- - The truth, denny,or i'm leaving - No, no, don't.
It's just, i I wanted to make you love me again.
Excuse me? I-I wanted you to be reminded of the soft, sensitive me.
You said you wted to rekindle the old-- So i thought i'd cinch the deal with a-A- A few tears.
D-Denny, i I'm not looking to rekindle that.
- You weren't? - No.
I-Is that what you thought this dinner was about? No.
I was just kidding around don't be silly.
Denny, you're--You're a-A dear friend, but-- I-I gotta go.
- What were you thinking? - I don't know.
You wired your face for tears? Oh, lay off, will you? Hindsight is always easy.
I thought maybe you were experiencing issues of guilt over the murder, and well You could maybe start over.
- You think you're funny? - It's the clown issue, too, isn't it? No, no, no, no.
It'simply a mocking issue.
Look at the way Take it away.
Would you please? Take it away! I think you two will eventually work this out.
As you say, it's all harmless pretending.
What are you doing? You se no mat--You can't it-- Itlways comes up smiling, taunting me.
It won't stay down.
Oh! Jeez, denny.
- Well, it's what you wanted, isn't it? -You carry a gun on you? So what? I know exactly what i'm-- Judas priest.
It's not like we're out to get mr.
Melman.
But he willfully, repeatedly, overtly broke a federal law, In a dangerous manner, i might add.
How many times are we gonna let it go before we finally say, "Enough, we' gonna prosecute and put you in prison"? When i drive to work, I periodically come to street corners Where homeless vietnam vets Or gulf war vets beg for food money.
I try not to look.
It makes me uncomfortable.
Just easier to look the other way, And, boy, have we as a nation done that.
Thousands and thousands of vietnam vets have been lost to poverty, Drugs or suicide in this country, And our statistics on the military in iraq are even worse.
With repeated tours of duty, soldiers are 50% more likely To suffer serious mental illnesses, Including post-Traumatic stress disorder.
We've all heard about the 4,000 kids We've lost in battle in iraq, But here at home In the year 2005 alone, We had 6,200 scides Among those who serve in our armed services.
It is an epidemic.
Excuse me, but this case is not about the plight of soldiers that fight in iraq.
It's about soldiers period, of which my client was one.
Yes, but are you suggesting special treatment for soldiers that break the law? Special treatment? Judge, these veterans sacrificed their lives.
Some of them are maimed, some of them are rendered mentally ill, And we can't even guarantee them soup.
No, they hardly get special treatment.
The seal seems to.
We can shoot coyotes, hunt moose, slaughter cattle-- Let's not even discuss what we do to chickens-- But we actually have a law protecting the seal.
Why? They're not endangered.
Is it because they're cute, Easy to look at, as opposed to starving, mentally ill war veterans? We're the united states-- The richest nation in the world-- And we abandon our vets.
We let them starve.
We do not take care of them.
But, hey, As long as we slap a bumper sticker on our car That says we support our troops, I-I guess it's okay.
Ethan melman is a war-Decorated hero.
He returned suffering from post-Traumatic stress disorder.
It made holding down employment difficult, So his insurance lapsed, and he didn't get treatment, And he began to starve.
He didn't rob anybody, he didn't break into a bank Or knock over a liquor store Or snatch a popsicle out of someone's hand.
He went fishing.
Perhaps hunting.
And the federal government, instead of offering him a meal, Decides to spend $30,000 to $40,000 of money we do not have To offer him a jail cell.
Special treatment? No.
Decent treatment might be nice.
$750,000.
Take it or leave it.
Leave it.
Alan, if they find her contributarily negligent, We could get nothing.
Plus, on foreseeabity-- Jerry.
Ticktock.
- Your call.
I think we'll get more.
- Alan! I think we'll get more.
We are at the buzzer.
Rejected.
You heard him, mr.
Palmer.
Members of the jury, have you reached a verdict? We have, your honor.
And what say you? Uh, "we the jury, "In the matter of beckham vs.
Worldwide pictures, "Find in favor of the plaintiff, "And we order the defendant to pay damages in the amountof $4.
3 million.
" Did--Did he just say-- Your honor, i ask that the verdict be set aside on grounds of being excessive.
Mr.
Palmer Shut up.
All right, the jury is excused with the court's thanks.
We are adjourned.
Disappointed, melvin? Three pops for yes.
I gotta hand it to you, al, A hoot till the end.
That's me.
Hell, i get paid win or lose.
Hell, now that we get to appeal, I just made more money, that's what i did.
Busy.
Denny.
Shirley Why did you invite me to dinner? Because i adore you.
I've let some friendships either atrophy or And well i suppose I'm worried about you.
That's it? You're-- You're worried about me? Denny, you're walking around without your pants on, - Your face wired for tears.
- I explained the pants.
The tears were for you.
Y-You don't see us getting back together at all? It's so far beyond the bucket? - Pale.
- What? It's "beyond the pale," not the bucket.
Shirley we love each other.
I do love youdenny, But not in a romantic way.
Oh, come on, shirley.
At our age, If our heart skips a beat, it could kill us.
You gotta give up on this Romance thing.
Nobody ever gives up on it.
- Judge is back.
- Thank you.
Denny you're not in trial.
It's my judge.
Had a little malfunction On the tear machine.
Gotta get the kinks worked out.
Once i do, i'll I realize our nation has a deficit, And we can't feed everybody, nor get them health insurance.
But it seems to me, If a soldier risks his life in battle for this country This country owes him something in return, If not legally, morally.
I find mr.
Melman not guilty.
- Ohmy! - We are adjourned.
- Thank god.
- Thank you, shirley.
You saved my life.
How about i take you to dinner to celebrate? - Oh.
- I know a cozy place that serves marine mammals.
Well, i--If you don't mind, i think i'm gonna pass.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Thank you, shirley.
Oh! I-I will pay my bill.
And he just continued to smile as if he'd won, That same horrific grin as the bobo doll.
As much as i wanted to help my client in this case, i'm ashamed to admit, My overriding drive was to beat melvin palmer.
I know it sounds crazy But he really did bring back memories of the bobo doll.
It would just keep popping back up with that expression "You lose!" Lorraine thinks it's self-Loathing on my part.
We're all victims of our childhood, one way or another.
I'm sorry about things with shirley.
Yeah.
Que saran, saran.
Sera.
Really? I thought it was saran.
No.
Sera.
What's saran? It's a-A wrap, keeps sandwiches fresh.
See, if i had been the one to break it off with shirley Ah, it's all male ego anyway, Like you having to prove yourself in court.
We're hard-Wired.
That's, uh Just don't want to be seen as losers.
I think we live our lives so afraid to be seen as weak That we die perhaps without ever having been seen at all.
Denny, do you ever worry that when you die, People will never have truly known you? I don't want 'em to know me.
I want them to believe my version.
