[Johnnie Cochran is preparing to call his witness, Ms. Rosa Lopez, out of order. The previous day, Marcia had been forced to concede because of her personal childcare issues]
Mr. Cochran, is Ms. Lopez present here today?
She is, Your Honor.
And do you anticipate that we can hear what she has to say in one day?
I would expect so, Your Honor, barring any acts of God, or further childcare crisises from Ms. Clark.
[O.J. chuckles to himself, but an outraged Marcia gets to her feet]
Your Honor. I am offended by Mr. Cochran’s remarks, as a woman, and as a mother. Mr. Cochran may not know what it’s like to work a 70-hour work week and also take care of a family, but I do. And many other people do, too. To belittle my childcare issues in your courtroom is unconscionable and totally out of line.
