00:00Sometimes in life, you hit a turning point.

00:11Lily!

00:12Oh, you got to be more careful, girl.

00:14And that was it for me.

00:18How long have you worked there?

00:22Just shy of 20 years.

00:25I don't understand why you stayed.

00:28At first, they were just shenanigans.

00:32I've got schoolboy nonsense, really.

00:34If you can find me some evidence,

00:37I need substantiation to build you a case.

00:42Well, here we go.

00:46You sure you're up for this?

00:48What time you want to leave?

00:50Now, your income, if you include overtime,

00:52it is half of what the men are making.

00:55She was bossy, thought she was better than everybody else.

00:57John wants me to smile more.

00:59Don't you dare smile.

01:01These are powerful groups.

01:02We knew that it could go either way.

01:04You think they should get away with how they treated me?

01:07No.

01:08The partners and I would like to take this to the Supreme Court.

01:12That company took advantage of me,

01:14like so many companies are taking advantage of their workers.

01:18If she wins, women all over the country are going to use this as an excuse to sue.

01:23I'm so damn proud of you, babe.

01:25Miss Ledbetter was consigned to a career as a second-class employee

01:29only because she is a woman.

01:31That cannot be the law, and it isn't.

01:33You knew you were being paid less than your male counterparts.

01:36You waited to retire before suing.

01:38Do you really believe I chose to work 20 years

01:40knowing I was being cheated and discriminated against

01:42just so I could wait to sue?

01:44Does that make any sense?

01:45You're not one of them, and you never will be.

01:48You're a country girl who grew up swimming in Doc Brewster's pond.

01:51That's right.

01:53So I know how to burn off a leech.
