Boston Legal · Season 3
The man's a keeper. Smart, good-looking, articulate. I like him.
There you go.
May I ask, when you say "articulate", I would imagine almost everyone who comes out of law school is "articulate".
Yeah, but uh, well, you know what I mean.
I don't, actually.
Well, I-I mean it like Joe Biden meant it. The way they mean it when they say uh, Condi Rice is so articulate. That way.
But I still don't know what you mean.
You don't sound black.
Denny, there's no such thing as "sounding black".
What do you mean?
Certainly you don't think all black people sound alike.
Well, of course not. Anchors on the news don't sound black at all, and the black weathermen sound whiter than me.
It's politically incorrect to say somebody sounds black.
All right, then "African-American".
No.
"Jesse Jackson-ish"?
No!
Well then, how? What do you say? If a person sounds black, what's the right way to say it?
[uncomfortably] ... "Urban".
White people don't live in cities?
I've handled multi-national corprate bankruptcies, high profile murder cases and defended manufacturing giants against product liability charges.
Yes?
And you assign me the duck lady?
Is she just sitting alone in your office?
She has the duck!
