02:24Hi there, old fella.
02:29Uh, thirsty?
02:32Be my guest.
02:38Okay, okay, let's not bogart the bottle, huh, champ?
02:42Well, that's good.
02:43Yeah, that's...
02:43Hey, come back here, you...
02:53Come and get it.
02:54Yeah, yeah, I will, you old...
03:10All right, you can have a back.
03:13Stop that.
03:15Stop that.
03:16Now, you stop that now!
03:17No!
03:58Do you want me to get a doctor?
04:03I said, do you want me to get a...
04:151-7-7-O-R-E, 1-7-7-O-R-E.
04:25You sure about the license plate?
04:27I'll load it down right away.
04:281-7-7-O-R-E.
04:31Yeah, I'll call it in.
04:34About what time is this?
04:36Oh, I don't know. I don't have a watch.
04:39But I was just coming for my doctor's appointment.
04:42So that's 9.30, uh, 10, maybe. Maybe 10.
04:4610?
04:47And your occupation, Miss Devin?
04:49Oh, don't call me Miss Devin.
04:51Hardly anybody calls me Miss Devin.
04:53Just Marley. Marley's fine.
04:55I'm a teacher.
04:56Okay, Marley. Teacher.
05:01His name's Charlie.
05:04You know him?
05:06No, but I live around here, and, uh, I've heard the kids yell at him.
05:09You know, like little kids do.
05:11And they always call him Old Charlie.
05:18That'll do for Stark?
05:20He didn't have any ID on it.
05:23What happens to him if he doesn't have anybody?
05:28The city will bury him.
05:32People aren't born alone.
05:33They should not have to die alone.
05:38Well, Miss Devin?
05:41Marley.
05:44If you can stop by the station tomorrow and fill out a more complete report.
05:48Oh, sure thing.
05:49Uh, just one of my doctor's appointments over about 10, 10.30, maybe.
05:54Okay.
05:54That'll do fine.
05:56Do you have a way to get home?
05:57Yeah, I'll shortcut through the park.
05:59I like to look at the trees.
06:01They're gorgeous this time of year, you know that?
06:03Yeah, you're right.
06:05Well, tomorrow, uh, about 10.30.
06:08Okay.
06:13What happens to Charlie if they don't find a last name for it?
06:17I mean, what do they put on the stone?
06:20Just Charlie, I guess.
06:25That's not right.
06:38Anything on the license?
06:40Yeah, but not much help.
06:41The owner said the car was stolen about three hours ago.
06:44Well, it's difficult to understand, Captain.
06:47Why, when my...
06:48Lieutenant.
06:49Uh, Lieutenant.
06:51It's difficult to understand, Lieutenant,
06:53why, when my son's car is stolen,
06:55you start questioning him as though he'd done something wrong.
06:58Well, I don't want to shake you up, Mr. Bennett.
07:02But people have been known to tell untruths to the police department,
07:05where charges of manslaughter are involved.
07:08You're saying my client is lying?
07:10No, Mr. Bennett wants to know why we're questioning his son.
07:14I just told him why.
07:16From the top, please.
07:19He's already told you.
07:21I got a lousy memory.
07:23From the top?
07:26Okay.
07:27I parked the car out in back of the house last night.
07:30I slept in this morning.
07:32When I got up, the car was gone.
07:34That simple.
07:38Uh, perhaps, Lieutenant,
07:41if you'd locate the car first.
07:44We already have, down by River Road.
07:47Looks as if it's been hardwired.
07:49And if I may say so, Lieutenant,
07:51this is dangerously close to an illegal interrogation.
07:55There's substantial evidence the car is stolen.
07:57Chad here had no possible motive for hurting that old drunk.
08:00Mr. Kane, when you're right, you're right.
08:03Goodbye.
08:09Uh, Lieutenant,
08:11if I can do anything to help out with the old guy's funeral expenses,
08:14I'd be more than happy to.
08:16You would?
08:17Yes, sir.
08:18Well, I'll bear that in mind and let you know,
08:21thanks for coming down.
08:22I'll see you tomorrow.
08:23Uh, see who tomorrow?
08:25All three of you, I expect.
08:27We're having a line-up.
08:28You see, there's an eyewitness.
08:33You see, there's an eyewitness.
08:57Fine.
08:59Well, uh, Marley, if she tags him, that's it, isn't it?
09:02Don't make book on it.
09:03We're dealing with relative values here.
09:06A rich, promising young man with good grades and good connections
09:10versus a dead, nameless old drunk.
09:13And a high-priced attorney versus a junior prosecutor on the district attorney staff.
09:18Are you saying that the grand jury can ignore eyewitness testimony?
09:22Stranger things than that have happened, Gillis.
09:25I know that old man is dead.
09:27Well, he could use a friend right now.
09:29There's no one on his side.
09:37Marley, are you in there?
09:39Come on in, Mrs. Samuels.
09:42I got your note on my door.
09:45What do you want to see me about?
09:47About how to send flowers to somebody.
09:49How do I do that?
09:51Is somebody you know sick?
09:53No, I wanted to send some flowers to the funeral for that man, you know.
09:57The one this morning.
09:58Oh, that man, yes.
10:00Well, it's very simple.
10:02You go down to the flower shop on the corner.
10:05Do you know the one I mean?
10:06Uh-huh.
10:07And you tell the man how much you have to spend,
10:10what they're for, and where the flowers are to go.
10:13Now, they do all the rest.
10:17Okay, I'll do that.
10:22Wouldn't you feel better if I went along with you?
10:26Mrs. Samuels, I love you.
10:29I do.
10:32But sometimes you treat me like I was before, and I'm not like that anymore.
10:38I'm sorry.
10:39I forget sometimes, that's all.
10:41I'll go by myself, and I'll be fine.
10:43I really will.
10:44Okay.
10:47Marley, you just ought to remember that Dr. Castle has a lot more tests to make on you.
10:56I don't want you to get your hopes up too high.
11:07The movement of settlers into the Western Plains
11:11was one that found the Indian tribes inhabiting the region
11:16ill-prepared to cope with the modern technology, and
11:19I know you read better, Marley.
11:23It's just that I don't want you to get your hopes up too high.
11:26That's all.
11:28But I'm getting better, right?
11:31I'm getting lots better every day.
11:33Yes, God love you, Marley.
11:35You are.
11:36You're getting lots better.
11:37Lots better.
11:38Yes.
11:39Yes.
11:41Number two, step forward.
11:44Turn to your left.
11:47Turn to your right.
11:51You can step back in line.
11:53Next man.
11:54Number three, step forward.
11:57Same thing.
12:09You can step back.
12:14Would you ask the fifth man, please?
12:18Fifth man, step forward.
12:22Turn to your left.
12:26Turn to your right.
12:29Keep your head up, please.
12:32Look this way.
12:37That's the man I saw in the car yesterday.
12:39Are you sure?
12:40I'm sure that's the very same man I saw.
12:45Okay, gentlemen.
12:46Thank you very much.
12:47That's it.
12:54Thank you, Miss Devlin.
12:55Thank you very much.
12:58If you can wait, I'll have someone give you a lift home.
13:00Oh, no.
13:01I always take the shortcuts for the park because the trees are so pretty.
13:05Don't you think they're pretty?
13:06Yes, I suppose they are.
13:09Gillis, get the Bennett boy.
13:10Take him down to interrogation.
13:12Get his father on the way.
13:18Lieutenant Riker doesn't like trees, does he?
13:21I think maybe he just has a lot of things in his mind.
13:24Come on, I'll walk you out.
13:33Our eyewitness has made a positive ID of your son as the driver of that car, Mr. Bennett.
13:38We're going to recommend that the DA's office seek a manslaughter complaint against him.
13:42No, you can't be serious.
13:45I'm serious enough to tell you that we're going to start questioning him right away,
13:49and we'd like both of you present.
13:50Down this way, please.
13:52Oh, we'll get him out on bail, Charles.
13:54Don't worry about that.
13:56What about getting him off?
14:00Worry about that.
14:05Ah!
14:06It looks hot enough.
14:07No, not quite.
14:08Just a little while longer.
14:09Ah, well.
14:13Joe, what's the occasion, anyway?
14:14There's no occasion.
14:16That's a wedding gift.
14:17It's been sitting in the closet gathering in dust ever since we got it, that's all.
14:20Well, are you sure that it's not because you were so relieved to have Mike home?
14:23Huh?
14:25Well, there was a very good chance he may have been nailed with a manslaughter charge this afternoon.
14:29That's right.
14:29What is that?
14:31Well, they had me in a line up downtown.
14:34I was touch and go there for a while.
14:35You look very suspicious.
14:37Very.
14:37And how I was feeling very guilty.
14:39You know, it was a very good thing that Devin girl picked the other guy.
14:42Well, you know, Marley almost picked you after she saw those crazy eyes of yours.
14:47What is this?
14:48A pick on Mike day?
14:49Isn't it always?
14:50Mm-hmm.
14:52Do I get any...
14:54Hey, what is it?
14:56What did you say the girl's name was who identified the guy?
14:59Marley.
15:00Marley Devin.
15:01Twenties, brown hair, kind of cute?
15:03Mm-hmm.
15:03You know her?
15:04I hope not.
15:09I couldn't be the same one.
15:11I mean, you couldn't put a person like Marley on the stand, could you?
15:15Well, why not?
15:18Well, the Marley Devin that I knew, I knew from the hospital.
15:25Now, I haven't seen her in about a year.
15:29Uh, she's retarded.
15:32She was listed as having the mental capacity of a seven-year-old.
15:50Hey, Dad, when the cleaning woman comes in tomorrow, could you ask her to check out the big closet?
15:54It's pretty damp in there, and that's where I keep my cashmere stuff.
15:58Oh.
15:59All right, Chad.
16:01I don't want anything to happen to your cashmere stuff.
16:06Uh, hey, uh, I better take a rain check, okay?
16:09No.
16:10Not okay.
16:12I want to talk to you.
16:14Sit down.
16:24Chad, when you told me you were innocent in this thing,
16:27I believed you.
16:29But, uh, lately, things have become a little more complicated.
16:34Because of that girl, you mean?
16:35The one who says she saw me?
16:38Well, now, how did you know the witness was a girl, Chad?
16:42I could see her in the line-up.
16:44The lights aren't all that bright.
16:49Well, be that as it may, the charges have been preferred.
16:55So I'll have to ask you straight out.
16:59Did you do it?
17:01Now, I'll go to the wall for you on this.
17:02I'll spend every penny I've got.
17:04But I'll be working one way if you're innocent,
17:07and, uh, another way if you're guilty.
17:10So, let's level, Chad.
17:19Are you guilty?
17:27Yes, sir.
17:29I guess I am.
17:34In the strictly legal sense of the word.
17:41What does that mean?
17:44Well, I didn't mean to hurt him.
17:46I was just playing around, kind of.
17:49In a strictly legal sense, you're guilty.
17:53Chad, in a strictly medical sense,
17:56that old man is dead.
18:14All right.
18:19I'll stick by you.
18:22But first, we're going to get one thing straight.
18:26What's that?
18:27This.
18:32Chad, I know your mother was always faithful to me.
18:35And every time I look at you,
18:39I have reason to wish that weren't the case.
18:55This market's been held up three times in the past two months.
18:57The businessmen and the...
19:03Oh, go ahead.
19:04Don't let me stop you.
19:13Uh...
19:15You all have descriptions of these three guys.
19:17Look for them, Javi.
19:19That's all dismissed.
19:28Hi, Mark.
19:29Hi.
19:29Hi.
19:29How are you?
19:30Okay.
19:32Um, is there anything that we can do for you?
19:35I brought a card for you to sign.
19:36Oh, for who?
19:38It's for Charlie Duffy.
19:39That's the man's name.
19:40I found out when I called him.
19:41And, uh, I sent some flowers,
19:43so I thought the more names there were on the card,
19:47the more it looked like he had a lot of friends, see?
19:49Yeah.
19:50How nice.
19:51I'd be honored.
19:52Andy.
19:53Can I join in?
19:54I'm with them.
19:55Oh, sure.
19:56You probably saw Charlie around a lot, right?
19:58I mean, I figure that knowing his name
20:01and knowing everything we can about him
20:03is kind of like he's being reincarnated.
20:06Reincarnated?
20:06You believe in that kind of stuff?
20:08Yes, I'm coming back as a tree.
20:12A tree?
20:14Why a tree?
20:16Well, I'd be outside all the time,
20:19and I could watch kids play,
20:21and, you know, in case it got hot,
20:23maybe people would sit around
20:24and I could listen to them talk.
20:27And if a kid lost his balloon,
20:28I could, like, try and catch it for him,
20:30try and get it back for him.
20:32Yeah.
20:32You got the right idea about it.
20:34There's no doubt.
20:36Lieutenant Riker, you want a sign?
20:37No.
20:41Thank you for including me, Miss Devon.
20:48Okay.
20:49I got to get this to the floors,
20:51so I'll see you, okay?
20:52Okay.
20:53Bye-bye.
20:54Bye-bye.
21:00What do you think?
21:02I don't know.
21:05I guess Marley could be the girl
21:07that Jill was talking about last night.
21:09Your wife knows her?
21:10Oh, I don't know for sure, Lieutenant.
21:13The girl Jill knows is a patient at the hospital.
21:16If it is the same one,
21:18oh, she's retarded.
21:21Always the same woman, Mrs. Danko.
21:23Absolutely.
21:27At least the same woman physically.
21:31Well, come on, doctor.
21:32Don't be so mysterious.
21:34Well, I have to be a little.
21:36Because we don't quite know why Marley's changed as she has.
21:41All right.
21:42If you don't know why she's changed,
21:44can you tell me how?
21:46Oh, yes.
21:47We've almost doubled Marley's intellectual capacities.
21:50From a seven-year-old level
21:52to that of a 12- or a 13-year-old.
21:57You mean you've been treating her
21:59and you don't know why that change happened?
22:01Because we don't know anything
22:02about Marley's early background.
22:05She was abandoned when she was around three years old.
22:09Now, if she was abused or neglected in those three years,
22:12that could be the cause of her problem.
22:16Or it could be nutritional.
22:18I'm giving her megavitamins.
22:21Maybe that's what's doing it.
22:23I'm juggling any number of things.
22:25And I'd be hard put to tell you with absolute certainty
22:28what's doing the job and what isn't.
22:31Why the interest?
22:34Well, doctor, Marley is the only witness in a manslaughter case.
22:38So this treatment and her mental state
22:41will be very important to the trial.
22:45Yes, I would say so.
22:50Though it's a little out of my line, I tell you what.
22:53You have your husband talk with his boss.
22:56I have films of every interview I've done with Marley
22:59in the past two years.
23:02If her guardian approves,
23:03I'd be more than willing to show them to the police.
23:06Okay?
23:10Well, I hope so, doctor.
23:12I surely hope so.
23:19Well, isn't there something called disclosure
23:22where the prosecution has to tell us
23:25everything they have in the way of evidence?
23:26That doesn't mean they have to tell us anything
23:28about their witnesses.
23:30Witness, witness, singular.
23:33Well, I did find out a few things about her.
23:36Her name is Marley Devon.
23:38She lives at 2873 Commonwealth Avenue.
23:40I took the liberty of hiring a private detective firm
23:44to find out anything that might be useful.
23:47And?
23:48Nothing.
23:51Nothing overt, that is.
23:53No criminal record or anything like that.
23:56However, she did list her occupation as a teacher.
24:00Now, the state has no record
24:02of ever having issued a teacher's certificate
24:04to anyone by the name of Marley Devon.
24:06Well, will this help us to discredit her story?
24:11No.
24:12Maybe it might help us discredit her.
24:18What you're going to see
24:19is one of the first interviews I had with Marley
24:21going back about two years.
24:23We hadn't yet started her
24:25on the regimen of megavitamins
24:26and the drug she's on now.
24:28Why, has anyone else taken it?
24:30Well, this is an experimental program, Mr. Ryan.
24:33There are a small number of cases,
24:34I can tell you that.
24:36The things this Devon girl is taking,
24:39could they cause her to imagine things?
24:42Hallucinate?
24:42She didn't hallucinate that license number, Mr. Ryan.
24:45Part of the job of an assistant DA
24:46is to ask the questions a defense is going to ask
24:49if they find out about the state the girl's mind is in.
24:52Was in, Mr. Ryan.
24:54Was in.
24:57Lights, please.
25:00Now, this was shot through a two-way mirror.
25:21Hi, Marley.
25:22Hi.
25:23How are you feeling today?
25:24I'm fine.
25:27Marley,
25:29Do you remember what I asked you
25:31the last time we talked?
25:34What my name was?
25:35Well, yes, I asked you that,
25:37but I asked you something else, too.
25:39I asked you if you'd think about
25:41what you want to be when you grow up.
25:44Remember that?
25:46Yeah, I remember that.
25:49Do you have gray hair because you're old?
25:56Well, I have gray hair because, uh,
25:59I have gray hair, that's all.
26:02Mrs. Samuel says that's, um,
26:04to make you look more like a doctor.
26:06The gray hair, you mean?
26:07Ah.
26:08Well, you thank her for me.
26:11Now,
26:13have you decided
26:14what you want to be
26:15when you grow up?
26:18I want to be...
26:22Maybe I could be a princess.
26:27Or, um,
26:28maybe I could be a bus driver.
26:32I don't know which one.
26:34Why would you want to be a bus driver?
26:37Because I don't think
26:38that I know enough
26:39how to be a princess.
26:40Why, of course you do.
26:44No.
26:45No.
26:47I've got very big ears, you know,
26:49and, and
26:50Snow White had really little ears.
26:56Mirror, mirror.
26:59I'll blow my teeth.
27:01Now see.
27:04Hmm.
27:22Lice, please.
27:32Well, you're the DA's man, Mr. Ryan.
27:34What do you think?
27:37I think I'm going to have
27:38to check, Lieutenant.
27:40This is a unique situation.
27:43Frankly, the office
27:44may want to discontinue prosecution
27:46rather than to become
27:48entangled in something like this.
27:50I mean,
27:52the dead man
27:53wasn't exactly Howard Hughes,
27:54no, was he?
27:56No, he was just a man.
28:00Hmm.
28:20Hi, Marley.
28:21Hi, Marley.
28:22How are you?
28:23Did you ever meet my wife?
28:24Jill, Marley,
28:25we met a long time ago
28:26at the hospital.
28:27Did we?
28:30I'm sorry,
28:31I don't remember you.
28:33But, uh,
28:34that's, that's for you, I think.
28:36What is it?
28:38It's brownies.
28:38I made them myself.
28:40Oh, out of sight.
28:42How come?
28:43Because you signed the card
28:44for Charles Duffy.
28:46And because I thought
28:47it'd be a thank you.
28:50And because I didn't want to wait
28:51until the, uh,
28:55preliminary hearings.
29:00Um, Marley?
29:03Well, there's a chance
29:05that there might not be
29:06a preliminary hearing.
29:07There might not even be a trial.
29:14Well, why?
29:18I, I know
29:19that there has to be a reason.
29:23So, what is it?
29:25You know, Marley,
29:27sometimes things like this
29:28can get very complicated.
29:30It happens every day.
29:32There's not one of us
29:33who hasn't had a case
29:34thrown out of court
29:35because of a technicality.
29:37Well, could you tell me
29:38what the technicality is, then?
29:48Marley, it's, um,
29:49the kind of thing
29:50that's just so hard to understand.
29:52Do you understand it?
29:57Look, we're,
29:58we're talking about
29:59a possibility that...
30:05You know, sometimes
30:06I think that I don't
30:07understand anything.
30:10I mean, um,
30:12people are starving
30:13and we're all supposed
30:14to be rich
30:15and people are killing people
30:16and we're all supposed
30:17to want peace.
30:21I mean,
30:23what a really
30:24dumb world sometimes.
30:45I don't know if I can't
30:55do it.
30:55Hello?
30:56Sit down, Molly.
30:58It seems that Lieutenant Rikers talked to a man in the DA's office,
31:01and they're going to go ahead with the prosecution.
31:12Sometimes the world ain't so dumb after all, huh?
31:19Yeah.
31:21See?
31:22Let me show you that poster I was talking about.
31:24Oh, yeah, I want to see that.
31:26It's my favorite one.
31:28See?
31:29Oh, those trees are beautiful.
31:32That's really nice.
31:33It's cold in here.
31:35Well, it's probably because you left that window open there.
31:39Oh, no, I never leave that window open.
31:51Don't do that!
31:52Don't do that!
31:58Willie?
32:04Willie?
32:07Willie?
32:09Hey, Willie?
32:14Willie, don't be dead, okay?
32:18Willie?
32:29Why do you say he was a pro?
32:31The way he fought, the way he got in, he knew what he was doing.
32:34Sounds like you and Marley got there before you could find anything worthwhile.
32:37What'd he take?
32:38Nothing, really.
32:40Just a calendar that Marley had taped to the wall.
32:43It does have a great deal about the kind of schedule the girl keeps.
32:46Well, how does that help us?
32:49Well, I'm not sure that it does yet.
32:53Possibly.
32:54Possibly what?
32:55She has a doctor's appointment.
32:57This is the only consistent thing I could find.
32:59With a...
33:01Dr. Castle every other day at Memorial Hospital.
33:04Well, if she's in ill health, must her say that that's something that bears looking into.
33:11Mind a question?
33:12Of course not.
33:13How did you get your hands on that calendar?
33:25What calendar are you talking about, Chad?
33:34Well, um, I don't have a watch.
33:36But it must have been around ten or so.
33:38And would you tell us exactly what you saw?
33:45Um, I saw this little red car, and it was chasing this man around and around a parking lot.
33:50And then the man, his name is Mr. Duffy.
33:55Something must have happened to his heart, because he sort of grabbed at his chest, and then he fell down.
34:01And then he was dead.
34:02Uh, did you have a clear view of the driver of the car?
34:05Yes.
34:06And the top was down?
34:07Yes.
34:08Now, is the driver of that car in this room?
34:10Yes, he's over there.
34:15The record will show that the witness is pointing at Chad Bennett, the defendant in this case.
34:21So ordered.
34:24No further questions?
34:26Your witness.
34:30Now, Miss Devon, this is just a preliminary, uh, hearing.
34:34I see no point in going over ground that you've already covered.
34:37But just a question or two, and then, uh, we'll let you relax.
34:49Miss Devon, manslaughter is a very serious charge.
34:54I hope you don't find me rude if I ask you to state whether or not you are positive that
35:00it was Chad Bennett that you saw driving the car that morning.
35:03Oh, I'm positive.
35:04I really am.
35:05It was him.
35:06You stated you had perfect eyesight.
35:09Yes, sir.
35:10You also told officers, uh, Webster and Gillis that, uh, you were a teacher.
35:16Yes, sir.
35:17Sir, then how on earth do you account for the fact that the State Board of Education has no record
35:27whatsoever of having issued you a teacher's certificate?
35:30Objection, Your Honor.
35:31This has nothing to do with the matter before this court.
35:33This has to do with the credibility, Your Honor, of this witness, and nothing could be more germane to this
35:38court.
35:39Counselor?
35:41Objection overruled.
35:42Witness will answer the question.
35:49Witness will answer the question, please.
35:59I forgot it.
36:01Do you have a teacher's certificate?
36:04Uh, no.
36:05No, I don't.
36:06Then why did you tell officers Webster and Gillis that you were a teacher?
36:09Now, why did you lie?
36:20She didn't lie.
36:21She is a teacher.
36:23She's the best one I have.
36:31It's not a school.
36:33It's a daycare center for the working mothers of the neighborhood.
36:38Now, most of our children are two or three years old, and they know all about school and what goes
36:43on there, so naturally they call us teacher.
36:46Now, technically we're not, but that's pretty hard to explain to a two-year-old.
36:51Then Miss Devon's referral to herself was a mistake, but not a lie.
36:55Not a lie at all.
36:57Well, like I said, Molly is the best teacher I have.
37:03People like her are very good with little ones.
37:06I'm sorry.
37:07I didn't hear that last part.
37:10I said people like Molly are very good with little ones.
37:17No further questions, Your Honor.
37:24Mr. Kane?
37:27Oh, no, Your Honor.
37:28We're quite satisfied that Miss Devon's statement is a question of terminology and not a willful attempt to mislead.
37:35Very well.
37:37There being no further testimony, we will set trial date for the 18th of this month at 10 o'clock
37:42in the morning.
37:44All rise.
37:46All rise.
37:48All rise.
37:51Police are going to have to do stuff like this all the time, right?
37:53I mean, stuff like testifying and stuff.
37:56Yeah, all the time.
37:58Don't you get scared?
38:01All the time.
38:17Doctor, we have a major emergency at the nurse's station.
38:20We're out of powdered cream.
38:21Is it okay if I range it?
38:23Sure.
38:23Go ahead.
38:25Okay.
38:27Okay.
38:31Okay.
38:33Doctor, is there something wrong?
38:36Take a look.
38:43He's dead.
38:46He's dead, all right.
38:49So is another one besides that one.
38:53Jill, both those animals were on the same kind of regimen I put Marley on.
39:14It's a two-way mirror.
39:16We use it a lot in this kind of work.
39:23That's okay.
39:26I guess that's okay.
39:36Marley, I told you from the start that this is what we call a pilot program.
39:44There are a number of others like it all across the country.
39:49Now, when you're dealing with something like...
39:51Why can't I have my medicine?
39:54I mean, just tell me about that.
39:57Because there is a chance that there are some side effects that we hadn't anticipated.
40:05And those side effects could hurt you.
40:11Well, without my medicine, does that mean that I go back to the way I was before?
40:21I don't know, Marley.
40:39I don't know, Marley.
40:45Yes.
40:48Should Marley testify at the trial?
40:57I don't believe so.
41:05I voted in the last election.
41:09I read all the newspapers, and I listened to all the speeches on TV.
41:15And Mrs. Samuels said that I probably knew more about the candidates than anybody she ever saw.
41:24And then when I pulled that lever in that machine, I thought this is what it's like to be a
41:33real person.
41:36Not somebody that gets led around or somebody that people smile at and pat on the head.
41:44And a real person, you know what I mean?
41:53I want to go on being a real person, Dr. Castle.
41:56I don't want to go back the way I was before.
42:02The medicine might hurt you, Marley.
42:05And I can't take that chance with your life.
42:13I want to ask you a favor, okay?
42:16I asked you if you'd think about what you want to be when you grow up.
42:20Remember that?
42:22No.
42:23Yeah, I remember that.
42:24No?
42:28Do you have gray hair because you're old?
42:32No, I have gray hair because, uh, I have gray hair, that's all.
42:38Mrs. Samuels said that's, um, to make you look more like a doctor.
42:42I have gray hair.
42:43Uh-huh.
42:44What do you think?
42:45Don't say that!
42:48Now, have you decided what you want to be when you grow up?
42:53I want to be...
42:57Maybe I can be a princess.
43:01Don't talk so...
43:02Maybe I can be a...
43:03Dumb!
43:06I don't know which one.
43:08Why would you want to be a bus driver?
43:11Because I don't think that I know enough how to be a princess.
43:14Of course you do.
43:18No, no.
43:21I've got very big ears, you know, and Snow White has really little ears.
43:26You stop it!
43:29Mirror, mirror.
43:31You stop it!
43:34Please.
43:35I hate you!
43:37I hate you!
43:40I hate you!
43:42I hate you!
43:45I hate you!
43:54Hello?
43:55Okay?
43:55Okay.
43:56Okay.
43:58You all right?
43:59Mm-hmm.
44:02Do you want me to get Dr. Cassie?
44:04No.
44:04Uh, no.
44:05I want to testify, that's all.
44:08Marley.
44:11And the doctor said you shouldn't.
44:13I'm 23 years old.
44:15And I can testify because I want to.
44:18And because people shouldn't forget about people like Charlie Duffy.
44:23Okay, because a real person would testify.
44:26And that's what I'm going to be just as long as I can.
44:33Okay.
44:34Okay.
44:35Okay.
44:37Oh, okay.
44:39And approximately how far away were you when Mr. Duffy collapsed?
44:43Um, I always measure things in football fields.
44:47And it was about a quarter of a football field.
44:50Well, close enough to get a good look at the driver?
44:52Yes.
44:54Is he in this room?
44:55Yes, he's over at that table in the gray suit.
44:59Indicating the defendant.
45:02Now, there's no doubt in your mind
45:05that Chad Bennett is the man you saw driving that car.
45:10No doubt he's the one.
45:14No further questions.
45:16Your witness.
45:29All right.
45:30Miss Devon.
45:34Well, we've been through all this before, haven't we?
45:38No need to retrace ground.
45:39We've already covered, wouldn't you say?
45:42I guess so.
45:44No, let's not.
45:45Let's start fresh.
45:46Do you know a Dr. Leonard Castle?
45:58Uh, did you hear the question, Miss Devon?
46:02Objection, Your Honor.
46:04This is improper cross.
46:06Mr. Kane?
46:08Your Honor, this has a bearing on the competency of, uh, this witness.
46:14Objection overruled.
46:15Proceed.
46:15You do know a Dr. Castle?
46:18Yes, I know him.
46:19As a patient?
46:21Yes.
46:24Would you mind telling this court just exactly what Dr. Castle's specialty is, Miss Devon?
46:35Um.
46:41Um.
46:42Miss Devon, are you all right?
46:48I'm fine.
46:51I'm fine.
46:53Well, then, can you answer the question?
46:56Or did you forget it the way you did at the, uh, preliminary hearing?
47:04Dr. Castle's...
47:08Dr. Castle specializes in...
47:11helping people like...
47:15helping people like...
47:16in...
47:18helping people who are retarded.
47:22And I'm retarded, and he helped me.
47:25Well, then, perhaps I'm talking to the wrong person, Miss Devon.
47:29It might be better to get an expert on these matters.
47:32Oh, no.
47:32No.
47:32You're talking to the right person because I'm the person that saw him, and he did it.
47:38And the truth doesn't change just because of who said it.
47:41I...
47:42Oh, now, would you stop it?
47:43Just leave her alone.
47:44She's not doing anything to hurt anybody.
47:46Please.
47:47Leave her alone.
47:48Please.
47:49Order.
47:50There will be order in this court.
47:53Order.
47:55Order.
48:03All right, Molly.
48:05You okay?
48:06What?
48:07I'm tired.
48:12I'm tired.
48:16I'm tired.
48:24I'm tired.
48:52Okay, buddy, move it.
48:56Only that dummy hadn't seen me.
48:58You're looking at ten years, buddy.
48:59You tell me who's the dummy.
49:01Come on, move it.
49:20Marley, are we supposed to say anything or do anything or anything?
49:25I don't know.
49:29Well, that's your idea.
49:31I guess if you don't know, nobody does.
49:33Now is the time if there's anything to be said.
49:40This is a farewell tree for a man that we didn't know.
49:46But somebody knew him and somebody loved him.
49:49And so we decided that we'd plant this tree because the people that did love him didn't know to be
49:55here to do it.
49:57So this is a tree.
50:06I forgot his name.
50:08His name's Duffy.
50:12This is a tree for Mr. Duffy.
50:15Who looked like a very nice man.
50:19My name's Duffy.
50:20Oh, my God.
50:40What if I'm looking like a very nice man?
