Judge Wright, Valerie and others in “Damaged”

Now, Valerie, Hayden called you a retard, and you told him you weren't. Is that right?

Yes, sir.

And after that, did he keep on calling you a retard?

No.

Did you like what the boys did to you?

I did what I wanted.

Your honor, the defense requests you deny the state's motion to reverse your prior ruling.

Granted.

McCoy

You set aside the jury's verdict, because you unfairly held the state responsible for proving the boys' prior knowledge. The state has now done so, and you STILL refuse?!!

Mr. McCoy, it's over! There is no case here. There never was!

McCoy

How would you know?! You made up your mind before you heard the first word of testimony!

You're on thin ice, counselor! The defense request is granted! The state's motion is denied! You want to appeal?! Be my guest!
