00:00:00My mama told me, if I were Goody, that she would buy me a rubber dolly.
00:00:09Three, six, nine, the goose drank wine, the monkey should be back on the street hotline.
00:00:13The line broke, the monkey got choked, and they all went to heaven in a little rowboat.
00:00:16Quack, quack. Quack, quack. Quack, quack.
00:00:23We gotta get us across the state line.
00:00:25Find us a bar, do some business.
00:00:27Why can't we just take a vacation?
00:00:29We gotta work.
00:00:30Oh, come on. Work, work, work.
00:00:34All we ever do is work.
00:00:36Stop again.
00:00:38You don't stop again.
00:00:44I'm gonna show you my life.
00:00:50Don't mind you having yourself a real good time.
00:00:51You don't.
00:00:52You don't make it home at all.
00:00:53I don't mind you having yourself a real good time.
00:01:14Yourself a real good time

00:02:00Not so as you'd notice
00:02:01Then what are we waiting for?
00:02:11Honey, is this going to cost you?
00:02:21Oh, honey, I already paid two alimonyers
00:02:24What is this?
00:02:27This man tried to raise me
00:02:29It's disgusting
00:02:31God
00:02:32I think we should let you sort it out with a desk, Sergeant
00:02:36Hey, look, I can't go to jail
00:02:38I'm in the Chamber of Commerce
00:02:40Oh, Pink, wow
00:02:42Look, nothing really happened, right?
00:02:45I mean, if you shattered dreams, but
00:02:47Hey, hey
00:02:50I can play fair, huh?
00:02:52Yeah
00:02:52What do you think?
00:02:54Between you and me?
00:02:55What are you doing?
00:03:08I got the distributor cap
00:03:10So you pay the bill, butthead
00:03:12That's stealing
00:03:14Oh, a cop, tough guy
00:03:18See this guy?
00:03:22We're going to have to pay him off in cash
00:03:23Man, I wish I was a cop
00:03:25What do you think of that idea?
00:03:31What idea?
00:03:32Getting a job as a cop
00:03:34We already got a job
00:03:36Peeling
00:03:36Police weren't for the real job
00:03:40What about selling dope?
00:03:46You're not listening to me
00:03:47You want to be a cop?
00:03:53Yes
00:03:53I mean
00:03:57Let's face it, you know
00:03:58My time has come and gone for bowling, right?
00:04:01You know
00:04:01And
00:04:02It's just like
00:04:03Whenever I imitate a cop, you know
00:04:05I
00:04:05I'm totally there
00:04:07It's like I can feel the power of my being
00:04:10Merging with the idea of law enforcement
00:04:12And I like that feeling, kid
00:04:14You know
00:04:15Besides
00:04:17There's no better place to score, you know
00:04:19I mean, that's why it's all about
00:04:20It's dope
00:04:21Cops
00:04:22You're nuts
00:04:22Lots of cops are crazy
00:04:28You're scared of guns
00:04:30No, I'm not
00:04:31Yes, you are, too
00:04:32Well, they're dangerous
00:04:35Still
00:04:36We steal for a living
00:04:38We both have records
00:04:40Police work is not an option, okay?
00:04:42Every time I have an idea, you shoot it down
00:04:44That's why I get high
00:04:46You're disempowering me
00:04:48What is that?
00:04:50Scientology talk?
00:04:51Get high because you're an addict
00:04:52I am not an addict
00:04:54And quit anytime I want to
00:04:58Why should I?
00:05:00Well, you're snorting up all our profits for one thing
00:05:03Our profit?
00:05:05Yes, our profit

00:15:47Oh, my God.

00:16:47Oh, my God.
00:17:17Oh, my God.
00:17:47Oh, my God.
00:17:48Oh, my God.
00:17:49Oh, my God.
00:17:53Oh, my God.
00:17:54Oh, my God.
00:18:06How does it make you feel?
00:18:13Special.
00:18:36What did you do?
00:18:49I confessed.
00:18:51I told you, don't talk to anyone.
00:18:53Don't sign anything.
00:18:54What difference does it make?
00:18:56There's a system in place.
00:18:57We should use it.
00:18:58I killed a cop.
00:19:00Which carries the death penalty in this state.
00:19:02The fact that you're a woman might have helped
00:19:04if only you kept your big mouth shut.
00:19:06They're just using the same justice on me
00:19:08that I used on the cop, okay?
00:19:09An eye for an eye.
00:19:10But don't get intelligent on me, Kellner.
00:19:12I don't need it.
00:19:12How should I be?
00:19:14Sorry.
00:19:15Ashamed.
00:19:15Repentant.
00:19:17Are you Jew?
00:19:19What?
00:19:20My dad says all that stuff about the Holocaust is made up.
00:19:23What are you trying to jerk my chain?
00:19:26I thought all lawyers were Jews.
00:19:28Do you want another attorney?
00:19:31No.
00:19:33Okay.
00:19:34Then I have a psychiatrist I need you to tell.
00:19:36I'm not crazy.
00:19:37Well, you're something.
00:19:38I killed a nigger that shot my boyfriend.
00:19:40It doesn't make me crazy.
00:19:41It makes me emotional.
00:19:43Black.
00:19:45Black.
00:19:49Did the cop have a backup?
00:19:51No.
00:19:52Why not?
00:19:53He was there to get laid.
00:19:55I checked up on the cop.
00:20:00And as it turns out, internal affairs had him under investigation for shaking down peep shows, pimps, anyone in the game.
00:20:06What's your point?
00:20:07The point is he was there to get laid.
00:20:09Considering her personal history, I'd say that's irrelevant.
00:20:12Mr. Davis, we're sending a clear message to the criminal community that we will not tolerate having police officers murdered in cold blood.
00:20:19She is not the criminal community.
00:20:21She's been in and out of jail.
00:20:23She's never held a job.
00:20:24She's a thief, a forger, a prostitute.
00:20:26And now she's killed a man.
00:20:28A career criminal requires the most severe penalty.
00:20:32Is that why you're railroading her?
00:20:35We can't afford to be forgiving.
00:20:37It sets a bad example.
00:20:39You guys are doing the wrong thing.
00:20:46You know that, right?
00:20:58He has no case, so he thinks.
00:21:00I want to hear what you think.
00:21:02Well, if it's the way he suggests, she's a prostitute who killed a trick.
00:21:06Just a case of a white woman killing a black man.
00:21:09She shot him five times.
00:21:11Right.
00:21:12Except you know damn well no one in this country gets the death penalty for killing a black man.
00:21:17This black man was a cop.
00:21:19No one shoots a cop in our jurisdiction and gets away with it, you know that.
00:21:24So what are you saying?
00:21:30You want me to take the case?
00:21:31Got her, I've known you for a long time.
00:21:34I know how you feel about the treatment of crimes against black men.
00:21:37And who better to bring justice to the community than a black woman?
00:21:42It's going to be a historical case.
00:21:45And I have every confidence in the world you can handle it.
00:21:50Excuse me.
00:21:51Yes.
00:21:54Just a second.
00:21:57Got her.
00:21:58Make sure they remember it was a black policeman she killed.
00:22:02Why Catherine Kellner denied herself for trial is because she confessed.
00:22:12And we're not only talking about murder one, we're talking about the killing of a policeman.
00:22:16And the district attorney's office is prepared to go directly into the penalty phase.
00:22:22Thanks.
00:22:26How come she's always on TV?
00:22:28Byron wants to run for governor and his death penalty issue is tricky.
00:22:32A few years down the line it could hurt him in the polls.
00:22:34So this way he's connected, but if the wind changes, he's at arm's length.
00:22:38She's going to get all the glory.
00:22:40She'll run for DA and then attorney general.
00:22:42Well, how come you're never on TV, huh?
00:22:48Did you talk to this rink?
00:22:51I'm not going to the nut house, Davis.
00:22:53I don't want people thinking I'm crazy, Davis.
00:22:56Consider the alternative.
00:22:58Look, I lie for a living, okay?
00:23:02I'm a professional, okay?
00:23:05Put me on the stand.
00:23:07No way.
00:23:08Come on!
00:23:09You ask all the right questions, I come up with all the right answers.
00:23:11You coach me.
00:23:13I saw in a movie once, it worked real good.
00:23:15What would you say?
00:23:19Okay, watch.
00:23:26Your Honor, I took a man's life.
00:23:28Okay?
00:23:30And I'm willing to pay with my own.
00:23:32I've got nothing to live for anyway.
00:23:33Since the only person who ever meant anything to me is gone.
00:23:39Now, I look at the chance to die as an opportunity to be reunited with the only person that I ever loved.
00:23:46The only person who ever loved me.
00:23:53You're asking the state to kill you.
00:23:55Yeah.
00:23:56They won't gas me if that's what I want.
00:23:59I mean, if there's one thing I learned in this lifetime,
00:24:02is that the man did not give you what you want, okay?
00:24:05I mean, if I ask them to kill me, I'll get off with life.
00:24:08That's the way it works.
00:24:09You know it yourself.
00:24:11Trust me.
00:24:11Trust me.
00:24:41Trust me.
00:24:42Trust me.
00:24:43Trust me.
00:24:44Trust me.
00:24:45Trust me.
00:24:46Trust me.

00:25:00Trust me.
00:25:01Trust me.
00:25:02Trust me.
00:25:03Trust me.
00:25:04Trust me.
00:25:05Trust me.
00:25:06Trust me.
00:25:07Trust me.
00:25:08Trust me.
00:25:09Trust me.
00:25:10Trust me.
00:25:11Miss Kellner, you've been found guilty of murder in the first degree with special circumstances.
00:25:28Since you've waived your right to a jury trial, we are now in the penalty phase of this case.
00:25:34The state is asking the maximum, which in this state is death by asphyxiation.
00:25:41Mr. Davis, will you call your first witness?
00:25:46Your Honor, I call Catherine Kellner.
00:25:48So be it, Miss Kellner.
00:25:51State your name.
00:25:53Catherine Kellner.
00:25:54Could you tell us what your principal occupation has been over the last 12 years?
00:26:00Stealing.
00:26:03How would you characterize your relationship with your father?
00:26:10Okay.
00:26:11And how about your mother?
00:26:13Objection.
00:26:14Meeting.
00:26:15You need to be more specific, Mr. Davis.
00:26:17My mother's dead.
00:26:19I withdraw the question.
00:26:22What is your relationship to Delmore Collins?
00:26:28He was my family.
00:26:31How many years did you and Del live together?
00:26:34Around 10.
00:26:35Where did you and Del Collins meet?
00:26:37In a shelter for runaways.
00:26:39And what were you doing there?
00:26:42Trying to get off the street.
00:26:44You fell in love?
00:26:46It was more than that.
00:26:47So, after 10 years, this was effectively a marriage, right?
00:26:51No, like I said, it's more than that.
00:26:57He meant more to me than that.
00:27:01How did you feel when you had seen that Delmore Collins had been shot?
00:27:05Well, you might say that I died, too.
00:27:11Could you elaborate?
00:27:13There was a bond between us and I just felt it going like that.
00:27:17I mean, he was there one minute.
00:27:22Then he was gone.
00:27:26I turned around and I shot that policeman who was only trying to save himself.
00:27:31I guess I got mad.
00:27:32I was out of control.
00:27:36I tell you, I don't mind dying because I'd do anything to be with him again.
00:27:41Anything.
00:27:43Your Honor, I reserve the right to recall my client at a future time.
00:27:47Granted.
00:27:51Mr. Buke?
00:27:53You shot Officer Jack Brolin five times.
00:27:56Every one of those shots was a kill shot.
00:27:59Well, I don't remember much about that knife, but I guess I did if you say so.
00:28:02Oh, I say so.
00:28:03You're the boss.
00:28:05Miss Kellner.
00:28:09Miss Kellner.
00:28:11When were you made a ward of the state?
00:28:13Why?
00:28:14It's in your record.
00:28:16Answer the question.
00:28:20Twelve.
00:28:20I was twelve.
00:28:21You have been in and out of public institutions most of your life.
00:28:25People have spent considerable time and energy trying to help you grow into a productive member of society.
00:28:31So?
00:28:32So?
00:28:33Many people come out of prison and make new lives for themselves.
00:28:37But not you.
00:28:38Well, those people lose their gut for the life.
00:28:40I never did.
00:28:41I dug it.
00:28:43Order.
00:28:43It's fun to rip people off.
00:28:46It's easy.
00:28:47That's what I know.
00:28:49What about murder?
00:28:51Murder
00:28:51is what I call an occupational hazard.
00:28:55Order.
00:28:55You know, I can't help but think that you don't seem sorry for having taken the life of another human being.
00:29:12Well, he wasn't exactly a human being.
00:29:16What do you mean he was not a human being?
00:29:22Well, he was a trick.
00:29:23Oh, okay.
00:29:26I see.
00:29:26So you were in this room with Officer Rollins to have sex.
00:29:30Is that correct?
00:29:31No, I was waiting for Del to show up so we could rob him.
00:29:33But what if Del didn't show up?
00:29:35Del always showed up.
00:29:36But if he didn't, you would have had to have sex with Officer Rollins.
00:29:38Objection.
00:29:39Withdrawn.
00:29:41Did it make it easier to kill him because he was black?
00:29:43Objection.
00:29:44Withdrawn.
00:29:46Was that the first time you ever saw a man shot and killed?
00:29:50No.
00:29:52I've seen people die in the movies and TV, you know.
00:29:55My murder went like that.
00:29:57Smooth, right?
00:30:01You know, I hear what you're saying by the way you're talking.
00:30:04Like I got no feelings.
00:30:07Guess what?
00:30:08Some people are like that.
00:30:10You know, it's like if I was blind, okay, and you come upon me sitting in the dark and
00:30:14you say, hey, stupid, turn the lights on.
00:30:17But I'm like, what's light?
00:30:18What's dark?
00:30:19Because I have no idea, right?
00:30:20I mean, what is the big deal anyway?
00:30:22People die every day.
00:30:24What does it matter?
00:30:24If you want to kill me, kill me.
00:30:29I don't care, okay?
00:30:30Kill me.
00:30:38She's whacked.
00:30:43I know what's bothering you.
00:30:45She's whacked is what's bothering me.
00:30:48No, I'll tell you what's bothering.
00:30:49This lady is a professional con artist.
00:30:54You're going to see that a lot of clearly when it's all over with you.
00:30:57Drink this.
00:30:59See, she's making it seem like she's a real easy target.
00:31:03What she's really doing is messing with your head.
00:31:10When I'm out hunting and I catch a deer in my sights, there's a moment I could let it go.
00:31:22But you shoot it anyway.
00:31:25You're damn right.
00:31:26Because I accept the responsibility.
00:31:30But what if the deer is sick?
00:31:33Well, then I'm doing it a favor by putting it out of its misery.
00:31:37Carter, I know you're doing something that you've never done before.
00:31:44It's going to feel sometimes like a trip to Mars, but it doesn't mean it's wrong.
00:31:52It means it's different.
00:31:54I just have to keep telling myself that we're the good guys.
00:31:58Well, a dead policeman's widow and two children should provide you with all the strength you need.
00:32:05We're the good guys.
00:32:06Good.
00:32:09We're the good guys.
00:32:13I got it.
00:32:14Good.
00:32:18Hi, honey.
00:32:20It's Mama.
00:32:20How's it going?
00:32:23I miss you.
00:32:25I know you're busy, but now that you've finished that big case, I want to see you.
00:32:29Call me.
00:32:33Carter.
00:32:35Stan Pierce of the Black Law Association.
00:32:37Hey, we get your checks, but we never see your face in the place.
00:32:40Hope you feel as fine as I remember.
00:32:43Hey, congratulations are in order for winning that big Kellner case.
00:32:46That's going to make you the next DA for sure, huh?
00:32:50You knew that already, didn't you?
00:32:52Well, listen, there's a meeting next Friday at the Senate.
00:32:55Hope we can make it.
00:32:56Ah!
00:33:06Nick?
00:33:07Gentlemen.
00:33:15Mr. Davis.
00:33:19Seems we're missing an attorney for Mr. Webster.
00:33:23Your Honor, I've been here since 7 o'clock this morning.
00:33:26I'm sorry, Mr. Davis.
00:33:28Your Honor, the defendant is being charged with assaulting a police officer.
00:33:31I've never heard anybody.
00:33:34I keep trying to tell him, but nobody listens.
00:33:37Your Honor, I need some time with my client.
00:33:39I can't advise him unless I have...
00:33:41We've had him 48 hours, Your Honor, waiting for the officer's condition to stabilize enough for an eyeball ID.
00:33:47The DA wants him charged.
00:33:49I didn't do nothing, Your Honor.
00:33:50Hey, hey, hey!
00:33:53Hey, hey!
00:33:54Ease up, you guys! Ease up!
00:33:56Marquez, we have to 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
00:33:59You charge Mr. Webster and cut him loose.
00:34:02Attorney?
00:34:03Court dismissed.
00:34:05Do you have any comment on the death of Mason Webster?
00:34:07No comment.
00:34:08Is this another case of police brutality?
00:34:10This is the third suspect to die in custody since you've been district attorney.
00:34:14No comment.
00:34:14Is this going to have any effect on your plans to run for attorney general?
00:34:17No comment.
00:34:18Do you have a comment on Kit Kellen refusing her final appeal?
00:34:21No, I do not.
00:34:23Excuse me, Mr. B.
00:34:24What happened?
00:34:28Nathan Webster killed himself.
00:34:29The cops say he threw himself against the wall of his cell until he fell unconscious.
00:34:35Oh, but they were roughing him up pretty good after court.
00:34:38Well, we'll investigate.
00:34:39Save it for the 6 o'clock news, counselor.
00:34:42You got the wrong man.
00:34:43What are you talking about?
00:34:46Computer error.
00:34:48This Nathan Webster lives in a home for developmentally disabled adults.
00:34:53Marquez?
00:34:56Blame it on Marquez.
00:34:57It was your call.
00:35:00Did you think we had the wrong man?
00:35:02I think I tried to tell you.
00:35:04Remember I asked you...
00:35:04Marquez!
00:35:06Did you think we had the wrong man?
00:35:09Line 1, Mr. Bukes.
00:35:14Yes?
00:35:17Yes, sir.
00:35:20I'll be right there.
00:35:21The mayor wants to see us in his office.
00:35:28Probably wants to congratulate you for saving the state the cost of an execution.
00:35:31Hey, how you doing, baby?
00:35:49Hi, Mom.
00:35:54Now, I realize you're in this in, but you don't look like you're weighing 90 pounds soaking wet.
00:35:58Mom, please, don't start.
00:36:00Well, I made us a late dinner of your favorite, baked macaroni and cheese.
00:36:05At least a five hour load of bones.
00:36:07No thanks, my hour reading egg.
00:36:08I'm tired, I just want to go to bed.
00:36:12What's the matter, baby?
00:36:14Something happened on the job?
00:36:16I quit.
00:36:30I'm sure it's good to be home, Mom.
00:36:39It's good to have you home, baby.
00:36:41You look pretty.
00:36:49I see they, um, set a date for the kill their execution.
00:36:53I don't want to talk about it right now, okay?
00:36:55No, it's not okay.
00:36:56I am not one of your employees, Daisy.
00:36:58I'm your mother.
00:37:00And I worry about you.
00:37:01Now, you tell me what's going on.
00:37:03Ma, I told you, I don't want to...
00:37:04Baby, it's right here in the paper.
00:37:07All right.
00:37:09They asked me to resign because of Nathan Webster's death.
00:37:13Why did they blame that poor man's death on you?
00:37:16Ma, I made a bad decision.
00:37:18I made the mistake.
00:37:19The only mistake you made was to forget that the system only allows you to go so far.
00:37:25Now it smacked you upside your head.
00:37:27I just pray that you come out of this okay.
00:37:29Mom, I'm tough.
00:37:31Well, one thing to be tough, another thing to be hard.
00:37:36You think I'm hard, Daisy?
00:37:38Can you honestly justify the decisions you've been making?
00:37:42Baby, I'm talking about truth.
00:37:44Being tough means facing the truth.
00:37:49You want the truth, Ma?
00:37:53I went to the mayor's office ready to lay the blame for Nathan Webster's death on my deputy.
00:37:59That's the truth.
00:38:02He told me we had the wrong guy, but I wouldn't listen.
00:38:08That fire is sexual.
00:38:13Mom, don't.
00:38:16Hey, I'm all right.
00:38:17Not all right.
00:38:20That man used you to keep his law and order behind in the governor's mansion.
00:38:25And now you history, right?
00:38:36Did you call him and ask him for help?
00:38:39I could never do that.
00:38:40Why not?
00:38:40You're his girl.
00:38:42He takes the credit for your becoming D.A.
00:38:44You think I copped out to Byron to get my job?
00:38:47Only you know that.
00:38:49I do know this, though.
00:38:51In the very beginning of the Kellner case, you told me yourself, sitting in that chair, that she did not deserve the death penalty.
00:38:56I did not.
00:38:56You did.
00:38:57You sat right there and said it.
00:38:59And then you went right after, and you know why you did it.
00:39:02It was my job.
00:39:03We're talking truth, Daisy.
00:39:06It was ambition.
00:39:08With a capital A.
00:39:09That's what it was.
00:39:11Face that stuff, girl.
00:39:12Baby, now look.
00:39:20I'm sorry about coming down on your case like that, but I did it because I care about what's happening to you.
00:39:24If I can't say you, it's who's who can't.
00:39:39Oh, yeah.
00:39:42I hope you like it.
00:39:44Bye.
00:39:44Bye.
00:39:44Bye.
00:39:44Bye.
00:39:44Bye.
00:39:44Bye.
00:39:44Bye.
00:40:01Morning, Betty.
00:40:02How you doing?
00:40:04Bye.
00:40:04Bye.
00:40:04Bye.
00:40:04Bye.
00:40:05Bye.
00:40:07What are you doing here?
00:40:09I dropped by to see how you were getting along.
00:40:11You worried about me?
00:40:15No, I'm lying.
00:40:17I need you to use your influence with Byron to have Kit Keller's sentence commuted.
00:40:22My influence with Byron?
00:40:23You must be joking.
00:40:25I happen to think the death penalty is more humane than life behind bars.
00:40:29Great.
00:40:30Then I'll see you at the execution.
00:40:31Probably not.
00:40:32I think if you're going to send a woman to a death, you should have the guts to watch.
00:40:36I think if you're going to send a woman to a death, you should have the guts to watch.
00:40:36Oh, my gosh.
00:41:06Hold on a second, ma'am.
00:41:15I need to see your stamp.
00:41:18Thank you, ma'am.
00:41:22Wait right there.
00:41:23Somebody will escort you.
00:41:36What happened to your face?
00:41:51I fell.
00:41:54I think my meds are too strong.
00:41:58Did you smoke?
00:41:59Why do they medicate you?
00:42:22I'm a danger to myself.
00:42:31You really do want to die.
00:42:34Yes, I do.
00:42:35Well, what I don't want is another dookut and lawyer trying to save my ass.
00:42:47Do you know who I am?
00:42:50All you people look alike.
00:42:52You think so?
00:42:53I don't know who you are.
00:43:01You're the bitch that put me in here.
00:43:04You've got a new hairstyle, though.
00:43:06Moving up in the world, huh?
00:43:07What are you doing here?
00:43:18I don't know.
00:43:23Do you feel bad?
00:43:25I can help get your medication reduced.
00:43:31What do you think you've done enough?
00:43:35Tired?
00:43:40Bye.
00:43:40Bye.
00:44:07Bye.
00:44:09Bye.

00:44:19Ma'am?
00:44:26From that lawyer again?
00:44:30She got your meds reduced.
00:44:32And what do you want?
00:44:35Close 209.

00:44:43Work.
00:44:50Force.

00:45:05so you said in your letter that you could speed up the process so they'd have to set a date for
00:45:20my execution well i could word your appeal in such a way that the only sensible choice is to

00:46:19so why were you sent away
00:46:24i don't remember really
00:46:28i know i was 12 because i got a gun for my birthday and that was hot i love that gun

00:46:55he hates everything having to do with the body it upsets him
00:46:59he used to make jean that's his wife
00:47:03he used to make her sleep in the attic whenever she got her spell
00:47:06that's what he would call her period her spell
00:47:08like she was a witch or something
00:47:10she was trying to teach me about the facts of life
00:47:15and he up and took me out of there

00:52:51Okay.
00:53:11Hi.
00:53:12Sherlock Jones.
00:53:13Have the office next door?
00:53:15Don't tell me.
00:53:16You're a detective.
00:53:17Yes.
00:53:19My real name is Sam.
00:53:21But, uh...
00:53:22Sherlock is a gimmick, you know.
00:53:23I get a lot of calls.
00:53:24You'd be surprised.
00:53:25You know.
00:53:26Product identification.
00:53:28Connor Dubuque.
00:53:30Ooh.
00:53:31Damn.
00:53:33How's the name for, uh...
00:53:35Mouthpiece?
00:53:36You go for the jugular?
00:53:37No comment.
00:53:40So, what you working on, Dee?
00:53:43An appeal.
00:53:45Well, maybe I can help you.
00:53:47I do investigations, gift tracing,
00:53:49and I have a special gift.
00:53:51Second sight.
00:53:53Don't laugh.
00:53:54I work my way through school telling fortune.
00:53:58Thanks for nothing.
00:53:59Uh, I'm familiar with the Kelley case.
00:54:02Uh, I'm, uh, Cotter Dubuque. I'm one of your stepdaughter's attorneys. You shouldn't be here.
00:54:09I had a dream someone was coming, but in the dream you were a man.
00:54:10Jean, who is it?
00:54:11Jean, who is it?
00:54:12Get inside.
00:54:13Frank, this woman is trying to help Kit.
00:54:14I want you off my property. I'm gonna call the police.
00:54:15Mr. Kellner.
00:54:16Jean, who is it?
00:54:17But Frank, what would be the apartment?
00:54:18Do what I'm telling you?
00:54:19What would I tell you?
00:54:21I'm just going to tell you.
00:54:22Okay, you can come in.
00:54:23I'm just going to tell you.
00:54:24I'm just going to tell you, you're going to tell you.
00:54:25You're going to tell you.
00:54:26I don't want to tell you.
00:54:27You're going to tell you.
00:54:28Hello.
00:54:29I'm, uh, Cotter Dubuque. I'm one of your stepdaughter's attorneys.
00:54:30You shouldn't be here.
00:54:31I had a dream someone was coming, but in the dream you were a man.
00:54:33Jean, who is it?
00:54:34Get inside.
00:54:35Frank, this woman is trying to help Kit.
00:54:37I want you off my property.
00:54:38I'm gonna call the police.
00:54:40Mr. Kellner.
00:54:41Jean, call David.
00:54:42What did Kit send you here?
00:54:51No.
00:54:52Look, she's ready to pay for a crime.
00:54:55Why don't you just let her die?
00:54:56How can you say that?
00:55:01What did you tell you I did to her?
00:55:03Because I wouldn't believe nothing, she says.
00:55:07The devil is a liar.
00:55:09You told Kit her mother was dead.
00:55:10There's no record showing how she died.
00:55:13Have you ever seen a soul possessed?
00:55:16Well, I have.
00:55:18I had it under my roof.
00:55:22Mocking everything good I was trying to become.
00:55:25And what was that?
00:55:27A decent, law-abiding American.
00:55:31Mr. Kellner, is Kit's mother still alive?
00:55:36A woman is made for a purpose.
00:55:38Children.
00:55:40That's what makes a woman alive.
00:55:42My wife could not rest easy with her God-given rule, so...
00:55:46No.
00:55:48I don't think she's alive.
00:55:57They only let you in here 15 minutes.
00:55:59Don't you want to at least run around or something?
00:56:01Hey, where have you been?
00:56:03I'm back on the road.
00:56:05I had to work the tower.
00:56:07What's the matter?
00:56:08Miss me?
00:56:09No.
00:56:11Yes?
00:56:12No.
00:56:14Pulling a single shift this afternoon.
00:56:15Oh, yeah?
00:56:18You got something else to do?
00:56:23It's Donna's birthday.
00:56:25I'm bringing a card, I guess.
00:56:30Huh?
00:56:35Another time, then.
00:56:36You've been here seven years.
00:56:43You never had anything for anybody.
00:56:46And you got something.
00:56:48That's what I'm saying.
00:56:50I just feel like going, that's all.
00:56:52It's cool.
00:56:54You all right?
00:56:56You look pale.
00:56:57The lousy food.
00:57:01Try and come by later on.
00:57:04Bring us some fresh fruit.
00:57:05Thanks.
00:57:20What time is that meeting, anyway?
00:57:23Meeting.
00:57:24Some meeting.
00:57:25He comes in at all hours,
00:57:26thinking of booze.
00:57:32Oh.
00:57:34Damn.
00:57:37Gee.
00:57:39Must either.
00:57:41Let me see.
00:57:48I guess no brother's been in here for a while.
00:57:51Quit there!
00:57:52Stop it!
00:57:53You might sell, Dan!
00:57:54I told you this!
00:57:55Shut up!
00:58:14Just a minute.
00:58:26What are you?
00:58:29Hey!
00:58:30You're down there!
00:58:34Oh, so this is Kip's mother, huh?
00:58:36Where on earth did you get these pictures?
00:58:38Well, I called Kip's stepmother.
00:58:40You want to get the license?
00:58:41Yeah.
00:58:50A family barbecue?
00:58:51Yeah.
00:58:54Well, it looks like a regular family.
00:58:56It looks pretty normal, yeah.
00:58:59Is that young Kip?
00:59:00Yeah, that's Kip.
00:59:01And that's Pops.
00:59:03Yeah, that's him.
00:59:06Oh, she's funny.
00:59:08Ooh, wide body.
00:59:09Ooh.
00:59:09Stop it.
00:59:10Oh, my God.
00:59:15Oh, wow.
00:59:18Oh, man.
00:59:21Sick.
00:59:24What did she do with the gun?
00:59:26Oh.
00:59:27So that's how she became a sure shot.
00:59:29Exactly.
00:59:30A gun at a party?
00:59:34Yeah.
00:59:36Oh, no.
00:59:37There's a target.
00:59:39I don't believe this.
00:59:41Oh, man.
00:59:48Are you all right?
00:59:49I had enough of this.
00:59:52And I think you got enough for a new trial.
00:59:55You've got to help me find the mother.
00:59:56Well, I got a call going out to a casting director
01:00:01who's been in the business for at least 100 years.
01:00:04Show business?
01:00:06Yeah, well, she looks like a movie star.
01:00:09Oh, man.
01:00:10Is that how you do work, Sherlock?
01:00:13Hey, I play my hunches.
01:00:15Don't ask me any more questions
01:00:16because you make me feel as if you don't trust me.
01:00:18Well, why should I if you're just going to guess?
01:00:24Listen, I'll do my job.
01:00:25You do yours.
01:00:27Kay Daisy.
01:00:29Who told you my name?
01:00:31Like I said, I play my hunches.
01:00:37There's Kit's mom.
01:00:38Where?
01:00:39Right there.
01:00:41With the neon boots.
01:00:42Okay, serious.
01:00:43I am serious.
01:00:44She used to work at the place
01:00:46and now she owns the joint.
01:00:47Really?
01:00:48Yep.
01:00:49I can't wait to meet her.
01:00:54Cigarette.
01:00:54Cigarette.
01:00:54Cigarette.
01:00:54Cigarette.
01:00:56Cigarette.
01:00:57Ah, thanks.
01:00:59Excuse me.
01:01:00We're looking for Noah.
01:01:08Hey, come on in.
01:01:10Uh, do you want a drink?
01:01:19No, thanks.
01:01:21Um, we're here to talk about Catherine.
01:01:24Yeah, he, uh, he told me on the phone.
01:01:27Uh, sit down.
01:01:28What we need is a deposition and possibly we'll need you to come to court.
01:01:36And say what?
01:01:38To talk about Kit's upbringing.
01:01:39Um, I left pretty early.
01:01:41Um, I left pretty early.
01:01:41Why?
01:01:42Sam.
01:01:43Hey, it's okay.
01:01:44I don't mind.
01:01:45I'll talk about it.
01:01:46Well, me and Kit's father never did get along.
01:01:50And then, um, then I come up pregnant.
01:01:55And that was the end.
01:01:57I know a doctor that would have done the dirty for a couple hundred.
01:02:01But Frank wouldn't hear of it.
01:02:04He wanted that baby more than he wanted me.
01:02:06It's been up to me when we wouldn't be here.
01:02:12But here we are.
01:02:13Hey, wait a minute.
01:02:14Don't get me wrong.
01:02:15I love my daughter.
01:02:17But Frank and those ideas about the races.
01:02:20I mean, when I found out what a nut he was,
01:02:22I wanted to get Kit and me both out of there.
01:02:26But he says it.
01:02:29He'd track me down and he'd kill me.
01:02:32So I took off.
01:02:34Are you interested in seeing your daughter?
01:02:35Of course I am.
01:02:37But I, I don't think she wants to see me after all this time.
01:02:42You know, I wrote and I wrote and I wrote to her.
01:02:48She never wrote back.
01:02:50That's because she never got the letters.
01:02:53Frank Kellner kept those letters hidden in a box.
01:03:00I, I, I, I, why didn't he just get rid of them?
01:03:04I mean, gee, he's a funny one, isn't he?
01:03:06Son of a bitch.
01:03:16Slow down, slow down, slow down.
01:03:18Hey, let's slow down.
01:03:23Did you hear me tell you to slow down?
01:03:25I think you'd better go see the nurse.
01:03:35I'm pregnant.
01:03:37What?
01:03:39Pregnant.
01:03:40Were you raped?
01:03:41No.
01:03:42Are you sure?
01:03:44Am I sure?
01:03:46Well, what happened?
01:03:48What happened is what happens.
01:03:50In prison, you had an affair and I can't get a date.
01:03:58So who's the guy? A guard?
01:04:01I gotta get rid of this baby.
01:04:03Now wait.
01:04:07Let's think about this.
01:04:09Now, the governor was elected on a pro-life platform.
01:04:12He might commute your sentence if you had...
01:04:14I'm not gonna have a baby to help my case.
01:04:17Will you think about it?
01:04:18No, I'm not gonna think about it.
01:04:19I don't want to bring another loser into the world.
01:04:21What if I got at a good home?
01:04:23Hey, is abortion legal in this state?
01:04:25So far.
01:04:26Okay, then don't I have a right to say what I want to have happen to my body?
01:04:29Yes.
01:04:30Yeah, then I'm saying.
01:04:33Okay.
01:04:33You know, the superintendent said that maybe I'm not entitled to have an abortion.
01:04:37Like if I couldn't pay for it, then I couldn't have it.
01:04:39That's bull.
01:04:41Always said it.
01:04:46You think I'm doing the wrong thing?
01:04:47It doesn't matter what I think.
01:04:50You have to trust yourself.
01:04:54I've been there.
01:04:56It was the hardest decision I ever made.
01:04:58Are you sorry?
01:05:07No.
01:05:10Kit, this is your decision.
01:05:13You know what to do.
01:05:15And yes, I'll help you.
01:05:17What's this?
01:05:30Something for you.
01:05:31What's this?
01:05:32You've been there.
01:05:35What's next?
01:05:36Oh, my God.
01:05:40What's next?
01:05:42Come here.
01:05:51Oh.
01:05:52Oh.
01:05:52Mr. Buick is here.
01:06:22Well, you've been on my line. You look great. Thanks. Would you like a drink? No, no. Well, have a seat. What are you doing in my neck of the woods? Well, John, you know, I'm working on the Catherine Kellner case, and I seem to be having a problem with the superintendent at the prison.
01:06:48He tells me it's you who's decided not to grant Catherine's abortion. I was hoping your visit here would be more of a personal nature. Well, I would think that she would want to have the baby, considering I'm going to stay her execution, review the case.
01:07:11Well, that's very generous of you. But what she wants is an abortion. Well, I can't do that. John, you're playing politics with her right to choose. What about the rights of a child? This is not a child. No, it's a baby. The life of a baby versus an unrepentant killer.
01:07:28All right, then tell me this. What kind of future does a baby have as a ward of the state? I'm sorry, but the bulk of my constituency has strong feelings about the killing of babies.
01:07:42But not about killing adults? Doesn't that strike you as strange? Strange? You want to know what strikes me as strange?
01:07:51You. Switching sides on me. We used to be on the same team, remember? We still could be.
01:08:03Are you offering me a job? If I offer, would you accept?
01:08:06Kellner wants an abortion. That's her legal right. Well, I can tell you right now, you're never going to get the state funds.
01:08:21Then I'll raise the money or pay for it myself. Byron, the law is on my side.
01:08:29For the time being. Do you look alike?
01:08:43I see a resemblance. Do you? I definitely do.
01:08:48Mm-hmm. Yeah. So how's it come along?
01:08:53Oh, the system is a nightmare. I had to petition the attorney general, then get a judge to post bail while we take you to the hospital. Here.
01:09:03Nah, they make me sick.
01:09:05Oh, right.
01:09:10So who's paying for the abortion?
01:09:13Different people.
01:09:15Who, you?
01:09:16I put some money in. Because if we waited for state funds, we risk a second trimester abortion and, you know...
01:09:22Hey, Cutter, I changed my mind. I'm going to have the baby.
01:09:26Say what?
01:09:27I know. Are you pissed?
01:09:30No, I'm not pissed, but I've given a lot of people a pretty hard time.
01:09:35I know. That's part of what made me change my mind.
01:09:38Finding those letters that my mom sent, that changed me, man.
01:09:44You're having all this faith that I'm worth saving.
01:09:47I don't know. I'm sure my baby's worth saving.
01:09:53Speaking truth, I'm happy you changed your mind.
01:09:58I am.
01:09:59I'm excited for you.
01:10:01Thanks.
01:10:02Thanks.
01:10:02How do I look?
01:10:14You look beautiful.
01:10:15Now, wait right here and relax.
01:10:17Okay?
01:10:23Hi.
01:10:24She's here. Are you ready?
01:10:26Yeah. Okay.
01:10:29I'm going to wait outside.
01:10:30You sure did come up pretty.
01:10:43I used to hate it when my mom would tell me how much alike we were.
01:10:49But you, you really do remind me of myself when I was your age.
01:10:55I wouldn't know. I haven't seen you in like a hundred years.
01:10:58Well, I would have come soon, but I didn't know what you'd say.
01:11:01I didn't know if you'd be pleased.
01:11:02I didn't know if you'd be mad.
01:11:04I can't blame you for being pissed off at me.
01:11:09I understand.
01:11:12But look, I kept all of your clips.
01:11:15Everything I could find in the papers about you.
01:11:18Not the same thing as a visit.
01:11:19I do feel kind of mad at you.
01:11:30I do feel kind of mad at you.
01:11:34I guess this was a dumb idea.
01:11:38Too much of a shock.
01:11:43You're mad at me.
01:11:44I don't blame you.
01:11:47I understand.
01:11:52Look, um...
01:11:55Mr. Buick, um...
01:11:57She knows where to reach me if you'll speak to me.
01:12:00See me.
01:12:04I'm sorry that I came like this.
01:12:07I can't seem to do anything right.
01:12:14I'm sorry.
01:12:23Hey.
01:12:25Hey.
01:12:25Hey.
01:12:37Hey.
01:12:54Yeah, I know.
01:13:54What are you nuts?
01:13:57Women marry men on death row.
01:14:01Andy, I don't love you like that.
01:14:03I'd make a good father.
01:14:08I have friends.
01:14:09I own a house.
01:14:11I read.
01:14:11What is all this about?
01:14:16What's going to happen to that baby after she's born?
01:14:22You folks take her?
01:14:23I see.
01:14:28You want the baby.
01:14:30I take you both.
01:14:31You know that.
01:14:33But this baby is half mine.
01:14:35I don't want her to go to strangers.
01:14:38Do you?
01:14:39How do you know the girl?
01:14:40I had a dream.
01:14:44I bought a pink layhead.
01:14:53Okay, man, please.
01:14:55Claire, stand back.
01:14:56I can't go for you.
01:14:57Okay.
01:15:05Yeah.
01:15:06I...
01:15:07Great thing.
01:15:10And talk.
01:15:15Yeah, we'll get it for you.
01:15:16Okay.
01:15:16I'll have them take her down the hall.
01:15:44No, it's okay.
01:15:53Here.
01:15:58I don't know how to do this.
01:16:03I'm going to teach you.
01:16:05My hands are cold.
01:16:06Just a minute.
01:16:08Now I guess I'll just plug her in.
01:16:10She doesn't want it.
01:16:12I want you to relax.
01:16:15Yeah, I see.
01:16:19Here, look.
01:16:21You're strong.
01:16:25Oh, this is like a nature movie.
01:16:28I'm a part of nature.
01:16:31Awesome.
01:16:34I'm sorry I got mad.
01:16:38I'm sorry I got mad.
01:16:45Mom!
01:16:47She's trying.
01:16:51Come on.
01:16:52She's trying.
01:16:53Come on.
01:16:54Here you go.
01:16:56Oh, thank God.
01:17:00Kid had her baby.
01:17:06Aha!
01:17:07What else?
01:17:10The circuit court turned down our appeal.
01:17:14When they denied my motion for a new trial, I felt for certain they would reduce our sentence.
01:17:22You know, you can't blame yourself.
01:17:25I feel responsible.
01:17:26I raised her hopes.
01:17:28I believed in her defense.
01:17:30I made her believe it.
01:17:31Did you have any breakfast yet?
01:17:36You sure I can't get you something?
01:17:37Nah, just sit with me.
01:17:39I need company more than I need food.
01:17:49What did they name the baby?
01:17:53Daisy.
01:17:55Can you help me?
01:17:58That's a nice name.
01:18:01No, it's not.
01:18:06Come in.
01:18:08Look, I'm sorry to keep you waiting, but I'm already late for a meeting.
01:18:13I reviewed your petition.
01:18:15Byron, this is not easy for me to come here pleading for this woman's life.
01:18:20Look, I am sorry.
01:18:21Why will you not take no for an answer?
01:18:23Because it's not the answer I want to hear.
01:18:25Look, don't start yelling at me.
01:18:27Byron, she went into prison and she had no life.
01:18:30Now she has a family.
01:18:32She has a husband, a mother, a child.
01:18:34It's a support system that could rehabilitate her.
01:18:37What's your point?
01:18:39I have seen Kit Kellner change.
01:18:42She's not the same person I met eight years ago.
01:18:44And neither am I.
01:18:46Yes, but I am.
01:18:48And the law is the law.
01:18:50It's what put us both into office.
01:18:53You can't go making exceptions because people change.
01:18:56We make exceptions if people are rich and white.
01:18:59Or poor and black.
01:19:00I don't have any time for this alone.
01:19:02We make exceptions if they've been abused.
01:19:04They've all been abused.
01:19:05They've all been abused.
01:19:06I don't care.
01:19:07Okay?
01:19:08We're the only country in the free world that still practices capital punishment.
01:19:17Do you want to be remembered as the governor of the first state to execute a woman?
01:19:22I'm not the first governor in this state to execute a woman.
01:19:27And believe me, I'm not going to be the last.
01:19:29My mom has gone insane over this baby.
01:19:54You should have seen her and Andy in here.
01:19:56They get along really good.
01:19:58Can you believe me?
01:20:02Daisy's going home.
01:20:06She's going home.
01:20:11We worked out a deal.
01:20:13Her and Andy are going to share custody if something happens to me.
01:20:24I never knew it was possible to love somebody that much.
01:20:31I'm glad I got a chance for that, Cutter.
01:20:34I'm glad for that.
01:20:36Come on.
01:20:41Come on.
01:20:48I guess it didn't go so hard at the governor's office, huh?
01:20:51No.
01:20:54Not so hot.
01:21:00Oh, hey.
01:21:01Look.
01:21:02You see my room?
01:21:04Look.
01:21:07Hi.
01:21:08Hi, baby.
01:21:10Hi, daddy, baby.
01:21:14Oh, you're perfect.
01:21:16Bye-bye.
01:21:18You see him?
01:21:19Mm-hmm.
01:21:23Bye, honey.
01:21:26Bye-bye.
01:21:30Bye-bye.
01:21:35Bye-bye.
01:21:41Ready?
01:21:42Yes, sir.
01:21:43Yes, sir.
01:21:49I'm writing my girl.
01:21:50That's my connection to God.
01:21:51Tell him it's too late.
01:21:52Could you listen to this?
01:21:53Tell me if it makes any sense?
01:21:54Yes, sir.
01:21:55Yes, sir.
01:21:56I'm writing my girl.
01:21:57I'm writing my girl.
01:21:58That's my connection to God.
01:21:59I'm writing my girl.
01:22:00That's my connection to God.
01:22:01Tell him it's too late.
01:22:02Could you listen to this?
01:22:03Tell me if it makes any sense?
01:22:05Sure.
01:22:06Okay.
01:22:07Okay.
01:22:08Dear Daisy, we met very briefly when you were first born.
01:22:12You'll be the last thing I think of before I die.
01:22:13And if there's life after death, then I will be loving and watching out for you forever.
01:22:16I wanted to watch you grow up.
01:22:17And if there's life after death, then I will be loving and watching out for you forever.
01:22:18I wanted to watch you grow up.
01:22:19And if there's life after death, then I will be loving and watching out for you forever.
01:22:23I wanted to watch you grow up, and to know you a good long time.
01:22:24And if there's life after death, then I will be loving and watching out for you forever.
01:22:25If there's life after death, then I will be loving and watching out for you forever.
01:22:30I wanted to watch you grow up, and to know you a good long time.
01:22:45And had it been in my power, I would never have left you home.
01:22:52I would never have left you for anything in the world.
01:22:56I never loved anybody as much as I love you.
01:23:00Your mom, Catherine, Kitten, Kellner.
01:23:08It's good. Yeah? Yeah.
01:23:12Perfect.
01:23:16It's just right.
01:23:48The Supreme Court refused
01:23:50to hear the appeal of convicted murderer Catherine Kellner,
01:23:54who will be executed in less than 15 minutes.
01:23:58She is the first woman to be executed in this country since 1984.
01:24:02We'll go live to our correspondent right after this.
01:24:06Let the punishment fit the crime.
01:24:10Is there anything else, sir?
01:24:14She shot a policeman.
01:24:18Will that be all?
01:24:20Will that be all?
01:24:22Yeah.
01:24:24I won't be all.
01:24:26I won't be all.
01:24:34It's time.
01:24:36The governor didn't happen to call, did he?
01:24:48Not yet.
01:24:50You know, Andy says that in India, if you die with the name of God on your lips, you get to go to heaven.
01:25:04What do you think?
01:25:06I think when we die, we all get to go to heaven.
01:25:10Because this life is all anybody ever needs to see of heaven.
01:25:12What do you think?
01:25:14What do you think?
01:25:16I think when we die, we all get to go to heaven.
01:25:18Because this life is all anybody ever needs to see of hell.
01:25:22And this life is all anybody ever needs to see of heaven.
01:26:08I'll never forget you.
01:26:15I know.
01:26:22I'll never forget you.
01:26:52I'll never forget you.
01:27:22I'll never forget you.
01:27:52I'll never forget you.
01:28:22I'll never forget you.
01:28:24I'll never forget you.
01:28:26I'll never forget you.
01:28:32I'll never forget you.
01:28:38I'll never forget you.
01:28:44I'll never forget you.
01:28:50I'll never forget you.
01:28:52I'll never forget you.
01:28:54I'll never forget you.
01:29:02I'll never forget you.
01:29:04I'll never forget you.
01:29:12I'll never forget you.
01:29:14I'll never forget you.

01:29:30I'll never forget you.
01:29:32I'll never forget you.
01:29:34I'll never forget you.
01:29:44I'll never forget you.
01:29:46I'll never forget you.
