The Practice · Season 2
You know what, I'm going to need a little time alone with my client. Do you mind?
That's fine.
[Kramer exits the office]
[To Blumenfeld] And I apologize, because I know this now means you have to be alone with yours.
Thank you.
You know what, Ellenor? Probably the only long-term sexual relationship you've ever had has been with your left hand. It was a mistake to come here. Goodbye.
Myra?
Yes?
[Ellenor punches Myra, knocking her to the ground]
Never insult the left!
Until you've been yanked out of your car, until you've been searched because of how you look, until you see the look of fear in somebody else's eyes staring back at you simply because you're black...until that kind of thing happens to you over, and over, and over, and over, and over, you can't know.
I'm not sure it's a smart idea making it about race. Wellesley, all white jury.
I think it's a perfect jury to make it about race. Rich, affluent, white town. These are the people that are desperate to reach out to minorities, so long as they don't have to meet one.
With Helen. What's stopping you?
What? Why? She said something?
She says you seem stuck, like you want to go forward but you won't.
Well, it's just that I... I like her. That- that may be the problem. I like her.
And?
And before I go down that road I gotta be sure about... everything else. You know?
Bobby, everything else is clear.
[about Sam] You want me to arrest him?
Yeah.
To give his life meaning?
Yes.
It's not exactly what we do here, Bobby.
Yes, I know. I was just hoping...
Do you know how many cases I have... with real criminals?
You know how many clients I have, real criminals?
Thank God.
Well, it's a little too soon for that.
You're honor, can we stop this?
I stopped listening a while ago. Why don't we go to chambers and have a cookie?
Are you going to let your client die?
You're concerned for her health, Mr. Daly? Let her go, and she'll hit the toilet.
If she agrees to flip her contact, I'll get her immunity.
[No response by Lindsay]
Ah. You represent the boss. It seems you have a conflict.
Jimmy, if you're not going to be OK with this...
No, I'll be fine.
Good.
I love babysitting murderers. Hey, you said be candid. Pay no attention to the cameras.
I'm only saying this cause guys like me, and there's a lot of them, we're never going to get the girl of our dreams. Never going to come close. So, the dream itself becomes kind of important. To turn on a TV or go to a movie and pretend the girl is somebody you might be with, that's as good as it gets.
Objection to the speech.
Speech? [Laughs] If council had heard me before, he'd know that was no speech.
What I do know is that this is not the Raymond Oz show here.
It could be, if you'd stop interrupting, young fella.
You said that God has those kids. That tells me you believe in God. You got to be afraid of what the Almighty has in store for you. He's vengeful. Let's not forget that. Those little boys got parents. Let them bury their kids.
Well, this is quite a day. First I kill somebody, then I lie. What a wonderful priest I am.
Ellenor, tell them this is something that's done. Lawyers can't be too proud these days.
I don't believe in lawyers advertising, Jimmy.
You advertised for a date.
Yeah, well, I don't believe in that anymore, either.
