"Previously on The Practice:" "I saw a client who's, you know, a lady of the evening." "I drove her home, I gave her money because she was broke she started rubbing me and the police suddenly showed up." "I'm completely innocent." " You don't know me, Mr. Flood." " Really?" "Tell me about yourself." " I'm just a joe with a long memory." " So am I." "You want my advice?" "Plead this quick and bury it." "You don't want to give Dickie the chance to go after you." "You crossed a line, Dickie." "You coerced that girl." "If I gotta squeeze some Jane to make a john, I got no problem sleeping." "We all know you don't like Bobby Donnell." "This doesn't smell good, Dickie." "What the hell is your interest in this, Helen?" "I don't like it." "Let it go." " Lindsay, what's the big deal?" " "The big deal?"" " Come on." " You drugged me." "You slipped a drug into my wine without telling me." "You then sleep with me while I'm under the influence." "The "big deal" is called rape." "The other night, I kind of had this erotic dream." "We were both naked, and you were very rigorous." " Bobby, got a second?" " Yeah." "This is really none of my business." "But remember your big murder trial where you turned rat against counsel?" " Andrea Wexler?" " We had a conflict of interest." "I don't think of it as turning rat." "You used to be romantically involved with her, right?" "That was a long time ago, but there was nothing going on while..." "Why?" "What about your Victoria client, the one who murdered her lover?" "Are you two still...?" "She was acquitted and why are you asking me this?" "I shouldn't be, it's just something's come up." "What?" "Scott Hamburg, my boss, the DA." "How can I say this...?" "You just say it, Helen." "What's going on?" "He's having a Halloween party." " Excuse me?" " Thursday night." "And if you're not seeing any old girlfriends or homicide defendants I'd like you to be my date." " She asked you out?" " Yeah." " What'd you say?" " I said yeah." " You did?" " She caught me off-guard." " Why, is that bad?" " She's against the Brady Bill..." " You said she's a good person." " She is." "But that doesn't mean you should sleep with her." "I'm not gonna sleep with her." "I'm just gonna put on a Simba mask and go to a party." "And don't think for a second she won't be Nala." " Excuse me?" " I don't..." "Yeah, I'm sorry." "She is a great person, Bobby." "She's a friend, that's all." "I guess I just can't help but look out for her a little." "Every lawyer I talked to says I got no case." "They're probably right." "Well, Rebecca says you don't always let the law get in the way of your arguments." "I meant that when the law seems unjust, you can find a way around it." "Well, when it comes to a pregnant mother and what she wants to do the law doesn't give the father much legal say." "Can't you talk to her to see if...?" "I've done nothing but talk to her, Rebecca." "She just..." "Where's Bobby?" "Is Bobby here?" "Lindsay?" "Where's Lindsay?" "All right, Lindsay, I need you now." "Right now." " Police." "Everybody on the ground." " Down." "Now." "Get on the floor." "Get down." "Something going on?" " What the hell's going on?" " Get down on the ground." " What you doing?" " Abuse." "Abuse." "Look." "Police abuse." " You have the right to remain silent..." " Hey, I'll tell him his rights, thank you." "Benny, don't say a word." "We'll be at the arraignment." "Don't you say a single word to these guys." "Been on the force long, boys?" "Move it." "He's represented by counsel." "Nobody even asks him his name." "Congratulations, Jimmy." "You just became a witness." " So am I. Lindsay." " Oh, great." " Why do I always get the drug dealers?" " Never mind." "Come on." "Sorry." "Bobby, your right-to-die case, you pull up any new privacy law?" " Well, some." "Why?" " Meet Mike Randall." "He wants to force his wife to have a C-section." " I just wanted you to see." " See what?" "Whose child is this?" " I don't know." " Then what's the point?" "The point is, my boy is exactly the same age as that one." "He's just as viable, just as healthy." "The only difference is, this one's on the outside." "There's no other difference." "Just he's on the outside." "Unfortunately, there's another difference." "This child has rights." "Until your boy is actually born, he doesn't." " That's the law." " Yeah." "Look at him." "Now, you tell me that law doesn't need to be adjusted." " You're upset." " I'm not upset." "I'm just surprised." " Were you ever gonna ask him out?" " Me?" "No, of course not." "I mean, we work together." "It would be stupid." "I would never want to date him." "Are you crazy?" " Look, Lindsay, if it bothers you..." " It doesn't bother me." "I just think, you know, you're a DA." "I'm a little concerned that, well, him dating a DA." "I have concerns for the firm." "What?" " You have concerns for the firm?" " Yeah." "Better than when we were in law school and I was about to go out with Robby Winslow." "You said you were worried about me catching E. Coli." "Case number 32606." "Bernard Small." " Possession with intent." " Whoa, that's me." "Lindsay Dole for the defendant, Your Honor." "Waive reading." "Move for a probable cause hearing." "Ask for a personal recognizance." "Richard Flood for the Commonwealth." "Cocaine, street value over 300,000, two prior convictions." " I'm opposed to any bail." " Probable cause tomorrow at 11:00." "Bail set at 500,000, 100 bond." "Can we get somebody to post it?" "Yeah, I think so." "Listen, this is totally bogus." "You know what else is bogus?" "You telling us you can't pay your legal fees." " I'll get it." " Yeah, you'll get it." "You'll have 10,000 in cash tomorrow, or I don't even stand up." "We clear?" "I'll be back in your cell later." "You can tell me what happened." "Don't tell him." "Did you ask for this, or did I just get lucky?" "Both." " Am I hearing correctly?" " We're talking about human life." "We are also talking about basic civil liberties, counsel." "I can't force medical treatment on a person against her will." "If she doesn't have this procedure very soon, the baby will die." " Does the child enjoy any civil rights here...?" " There is no baby, there is a fetus." " A viable fetus, nine months in term." " But nevertheless, a fetus which enjoys no constitutional protection until birth." "The law says she has no right to abort in the third trimester." "That means the courts have recognized that a viable in utero baby has some rights." "I would suggest that..." "Your Honor, the courts draw a big distinction between prohibiting abortion and forcing a C-section on the mother." "I'd just like you to hear from the doctor, hear from the parents, then decide..." " Your Honor, there is no basis..." " A baby is about to die." "Can't we just take the time to give it a thought?" "Well, we can think about it all we want, but the law is not exactly muddy here." "He has no paternal rights before birth, and she cannot be forced to have a C-section." "There's nothing gray to consider." " Then consider him." " Oh, come on." "What, "Oh, come on"?" "You don't wanna look?" "Look." "All right." "I'll listen to what the doctor has to say and I'll hear from the mother." "I will listen, but don't expect much." "In the meantime, I'm ordering all of you to get together." "This isn't something I should be deciding." "Do you think I wanted to call a lawyer?" "What choice did I have?" "Look, Michael, we're never gonna agree on this." "And we will never get over it if..." "Cynthia, please." "I know you think you have this understanding with God." " But I'm begging you." " No." " Can I speak to her alone?" " Absolutely not." "Why?" "I can't let you people exert undue influence while I, what, sit idly by in the next..." " I've known her for 12 years, we're friends." " I understand that." "And there has been an opportunity for friends and family to talk." "He'll talk more to her when they go home." "But here, now, this is a legal proceeding." "I wouldn't be doing my job if I left you alone in the room." "The judge ordered us to talk this through." "Cindy, you have two other kids." "They need this family to hold together." "What if something happens to the child?" "Have you thought about what that can do?" "God brought my other babies through, and I know he'll be with me here." "I believe in God and I believe he gives us free will." "He gives you the choice to do what you have to do to save your child." "I can't believe that you're siding with Michael on this." "I'm not siding with Michael." "I'm just..." "Look, this is not about taking sides at all." "I'm having my baby naturally." "I'm not having a C-section." "So I'm standing on the street." "Just talking." "You know, right on Beacon." "Right?" "You know?" "All the beautiful people there." ""Hi, how you doing?" They pull up." " The same two policemen?" " They're just hanging there." "Watching me." "Right?" "So I start to walk." "They follow me." " On foot?" " In the car, at first." "In the car." "I'm walking." "They're following." "I walk faster." "They hop out, starting to follow me." "Never identified themselves as police officers." "Benny, they were in uniform in a marked squad car." "I know." "You know, it's Halloween." "Whatever." "What do I know?" " I'm giving you something to work with." " See if there's anything in the truth." "I'm telling you the truth." "That's what I..." "You know, right?" "So then they go, "Stop." Which I do." "Boom." "I stop." "They go to frisk me, I take off." "I am running." "I am running, running." "Around the street, up your building, your office." "That's what happened." "You can't make reasonable suspicion for the search." " You underestimate me." " They had no reason to chase or search him." "Even if you make probable cause, you won't get by a suppression." "Again, you underestimate me." " Dickie, can I call you Dick?" " Cute." "There's this new piece of legislation out called the Constitution." " More cute." " I'll win this." " I will." " I got one!" "State court balanced the rights of the fetus against the rights of the mother determined that an expectant mother in the last weeks of pregnancy lacks the right to refuse medical treatment if the life of the unborn child is at stake, including surgery." " That's the Georgia state court?" " Well, it's something." "Georgia." "That could work against us." "Key cite it." "It'll kick us up to something bigger." "I'll be in the room drafting." "Judge Kramer's not gonna want to let this baby die." "We have to give him something to hang his right-to-life hat on." " I need that computer, Ellenor." " Here's another one." "New Jersey, 1964." "Old, but still." "State Supreme Court ordered a blood transfusion on a pregnant mother, Jehovah's Witness, to save the baby." "Give me the cite, I'll run it." "201 Atlantic 2nd 537, cert." "Denied, 371 U.S. 984." "You can key cite some of my cases, if you're gonna hog the machine." "I'm trying to save a baby here." "You're arguing a woman has no right to control over her own body." "I am pro-choice." "This case is not about pro-choice." "Tell that to the mother." " Excuse me?" " All right." "Let's just do the work." " You're such a feminist." " It isn't that." "It's just ordering a surgery on a woman, opening her." "Don't you think if a woman agrees to incubate a child she's got some kind of duty towards its safety?" " Still..." " What "still"?" "I never bought into that "my body, my rights" stuff." "Not completely." "If a person wants total dominion over her body she perhaps shouldn't decide to let another person grow inside it." "You grow more Republican every day." "I'm gonna start calling you Libby." "I know what's really bothering you, Lindsay." "You get ornery like this every time you have a drug case." "Maybe." "Ever think of switching sides?" " No." " You should." "You have a great reputation here as a Constitutional hotshot." "If you wanted to become a DA, all you'd have to do is snap your fingers." "And I'd get to work with Dickie Flood?" "You'd get to work against drug dealers instead of for them." "I'm serious." "This office would love to have you." "You should think about it." " What?" "What's wrong with it?" " It's not a costume." "It's a tuxedo." "It's Dracula for the '90s." " It's a vain Dracula." " Come on, Ellenor." "He had big buck fangs, bloody lips and Eddie Munster hairdo." "Now, if you are going to be Dracula, be Dracula." " Not JFK Jr." " Lindsay." "Be Dracula." "Helen will like it if you nibble her neck." " I can't find the citations." " They're in there." " It's 10:00." " You get Benny's money yet?" "I'll get it." "Jimmy, let's go." "Hey." "You okay?" "Cindy and I went to a Halloween party once dressed as Siamese frogs." "We had to time our hops all night." "You feel weird going against her?" "I'm not against her." "I think, since the baby is viable, she has to have the operation." "I just don't like a court telling her to do it." "The oxygen supply to the placenta is insufficient and it's getting worse every day." "Does this condition threaten the baby's survival?" "That's an understatement." "If we don't do a C-section, the baby will probably die." "Best-case scenario, brain damage." " You seem pretty certain." " I am." "The chances of this baby surviving labor are almost nil." "And if it did survive, there would be severe retardation." " A C-section is major surgery, isn't it?" " Yes, that's correct." " The recuperation period is longer?" " That's correct." "There's anesthesia involved." "Without a C-section, there's a funeral involved." "The baby is..." "Doctor, a C-section poses a greater threat to Mrs. Randall than natural childbirth, isn't that right?" "I consider the risk pretty negligible, considering the fact..." "She's the one being asked to take it." "Don't you think she should be the one who decides whether or not to take it?" "Ordinarily, yes." "But the circumstances are far from ordinary." "Doctor, you don't contend that Mrs. Randall is incompetent to make the decision?" " No, she's competent." " So let's be clear." "You're asking this court to override your patient's right to refuse medical treatment." "I consider the baby my patient as well." "He has two working lungs." "He's viable inside the womb." "But if we don't get him out fast, he dies." "We observed the defendant talking to a known drug user." "And given the defendant's own record, we had a reasonable suspicion that a drug transaction could be in progress." " And then what happened?" " Well, we continued our surveillance." "We then deboarded our unit and approached the defendant at which point, he began to flee." "You said you suspected a drug transaction was in progress." " That's correct." " Who was the man my client was talking to?" " I don't know his name." " I'm sorry." "You said you observed the defendant to be talking to a known drug user." " Known to whom?" " We knew his face." " His face." " That's correct." " Not his name?" " That's correct." "Did you see an exchange of money between my client and this man with the familiar face?" " No." "We think the transaction was aborted due to our presence at the scene." " Aborted." "So it never happened?" " We think it was in progress." " Did you see any drugs?" " No." " And no money?" " No." "What did you see to think there was a transaction in progress?" "As I said, we saw two people with drug histories conversing." "That made us suspicious." "When you got out of your car, you walked towards him and he walked away." " Right." " Were your guns out?" " No, they were not." " You weren't moving in to make an arrest?" "Not yet, no." "And when you said, "Stop," he stopped, didn't he?" " Yes." " Then you frisked him." "We patted him to make sure he didn't have a weapon." "Then he just took off." " What about the guy with the familiar face?" " I don't know." " We were in pursuit of your client." " Why didn't you chase the other guy?" " It takes two to transact..." " Objection." "We both chased your guy." "And when you caught him, you had your guns out?" " Told him to get down on the ground?" " Yes." " Searched his body?" " Yes." " Ripped open his shirt and found the drugs?" " Right." "You placed the suspect under arrest before or after the search?" "After." "After we had found the drugs." "I'm finding probable cause subject to defendant's motion to suppress." " I'll hear arguments tomorrow at 10:00." " Okay." "Dismiss it right now, we'll waive our civil claim." "I'd respond, but you're probably wearing a wire." "I have never seen you better." "Gee, that hurts my feelings." "How did we do?" "Don't think we'll win, but on appeal, we're strong." " I was never so good on search and seizure." " You'll never be a drug lawyer, then." "Too bad." "Listen, I got the invite to Scott Hamburg's party." " You?" " He was my pro-row professor in school." "Anyway, I'm between relationships." "And just as friends, nothing more, I thought you might wanna go." "I promise not to dream about it after." "Is there any reason I could give you that would be satisfactory?" "There's none I've been able to give my husband." "I understand, Mrs. Randall." "I, too, am a man of faith, a man of God, but..." "Your Honor, I know this is a difficult case." "But it isn't a function of the court to examine her faith but rather to ascertain whether she is acting out of that faith." "Oh, I get that, counsel." "But I'm at a loss as to how a person would be willing to lose a child acting out of any faith." "Accuse me of whatever you want, but don't accuse me of not wanting my baby." "All right." "You aren't arguing any incompetency here, are you?" " No, Your Honor." " All right." "All the facts are in." "Given that we have rights to privacy and religious arguments the only ruling I can be sure of is that this should not be left to a superior court judge." "These are issues best suited to our appeals court." "So I'm certifying you to go upstairs and argue it." " That's not good?" " Not really." "Appeals court will follow the law, which is on your wife's side." " That judge was our best chance." " And he chickened out." "He kicked us to appeals." "How we doing on those briefs?" "I have calls into the lawyers." "I'm trying to get copies." "I don't mean to keep sounding off alarm bells, but we're out of time." "We got a day, maybe two, before oxygen stops getting to the brain." "Anything we could show to say she's crazy?" "That way, we could get you appointed as guardian." " Then you could consent to the cesarean." " She's willing to risk the baby's survival." "Isn't that crazy enough?" "No." "Does she walk around talking to herself?" "Anything?" "Do you want me to make something up?" "No." "Okay." "We got two issues." "Right to refuse treatment, I'll take that one." "You take freedom of religion." "Bec, if you could get those briefs." "I'd like you to come with us to appeals." "Your presence makes a statement." "I'll be there." " Do you want me to get it out or not?" " Just don't enjoy it." "Okay, so basically, you're going to this party to spy on me." "Not basically." "Exactly." "Oh, that's it." "Right there." "You're on it." "All right, give me something." "Well, for one thing, don't wait for him to make a move." "He's a lot more shy than you'd think." "If I were you, I'd just pull him into an empty room and plant one on him." "Oh, right." "You know, he can be a little stuffy." "Loosen him up." "You'll have more fun." "Just don't slip any drugs into his wine, pursuant to office policy." "You want me to prosecute Kelton, just say the word." "Did you think about what we talked about yesterday?" "Me being a DA?" "How much are you making right now?" "Well, it's not so much the pay cut as..." "You know, since I get paid in drug money, I don't declare it." "Really, aren't you more of a prosecutor at heart?" " Do you like defending these creeps?" " No." "But defending the drug creeps is just, you know, the bread and butter that pays the rent, and that allows us to do the more important cases." "You mean the murderers?" "Exactly." "God." "It's funny when you think about how we ended up." "I mean, in college, you were always the stone-crusher." "I was the one getting the guys off." "Okay, we got Nolan, Wang and Strickler." " Not the most liberal of judges." " We don't want liberal, we want Bible belt." "You want judges liberal-minded enough to carve out new law." "You being a woman, I would seriously suggest that you lead the charge." "We got it covered." "We're gonna split it up." " It doesn't look too good, does it?" " No." "You worried about after, you and Cindy?" "You two have a great marriage." "What's this going to do?" "It's a little hard to worry about that now." "You have two other kids." "Shouldn't be hard to worry about them." "You think I should just let it be?" "No." "I don't think Cindy would mind losing." "I know she won't go back on what she believes." "But if the court would force it she could have the baby and wouldn't have to renounce..." " Could you get her to admit that?" " To me?" "Bec, she can't even admit it to herself." "Thanks for helping us, Bec." "These lawyers here, you know, they seem pretty good." "Oh, yeah." "They're very good." "Here's eight." "I'll get you the other two, all right?" "Eight thousand?" "I said 10." " I'll get you the other two." " No." "You owe me more than that." " I'll get it to you." " Okay, we all set?" "Just do what you got to do." "Your Honor, at this time, I'd like to withdraw as counsel." " I told you I'd get it." " Give it to me." " I don't have it." "Would you relax?" " I'd like to withdraw immediately." "Approach." "Your Honor..." "Lindsay, can I talk to you, please, for a second?" "What's the matter with her?" " What's going on?" " Money." "He won't pay." "I've warned him over and over." " Mr. Small, stand up." " Yes, right." "Why won't you pay your counsel?" "I have it, but I'm a little strapped for cash right now, Your Honor, on my person." "Right?" "If I'd been able to sell my cocaine, but the police took it..." "Yes, it's awful when that happens." "But since you posted bail, I'm gonna make a wild assumption that you can pay your lawyer." "Now, we'll adjourn for an hour." "Get the money, or I'll let her withdraw." "Thank you, Your Honor." "I appreciate that." "Why do you handle such jerks?" "It's her body, her right, but the right isn't absolute." "Third-trimester abortions are illegal, so at some point the government does legislate dominion over a woman's body." " A difference between prohibiting abortion and ordering intrusive major surgery." "Calling it a fetus or unborn, that helps, doesn't it?" "If you don't have to think of him as a baby, a fetus is a nice clinical word." " Forced medical care." " Saving human life." " He's alive." " Fundamental, individual liberty." " He will die." " Invading her body." "He will die." " Last chance." " Thanks for the warning." "Hold on." "Drop the intent, go with simple possession." "Six months suspended." " That much cocaine, I'm gonna drop intent?" " That cocaine won't be coming in." " Right, I forgot." " Fine." "But don't be claiming unfair surprise when I bring up the Fourth Amendment." "Where was the reasonable suspicion?" "His criminal record?" "The police automatically have a right to suspect anybody who has a conviction?" "It was two drug dealers talking." "Who's the other guy?" "They couldn't come up with a name." " They pursued Benny Small only." " And he ran." " After they frisked him for drugs." " A weapon." " Right." " Your Honor the police saw what they thought to be criminal activity." "They had a reasonable suspicion that the suspect might be armed." "When they proceeded to pat him down, he took off." "But I have to ask, what was the initial suspicion based on?" "Seeing him talk to somebody?" "Well, obviously, the suspicion turned out to be reasonable because it turned out to be right." "He had drugs." "Yes, as hunches go, it was tremendous." "But as reasonable suspicions go, they didn't act legally." "Your Honor, that man had over $300,000 worth of narcotics on his person." " What more can I say?" " Mr. Flood, I'm concerned." "What did they see but two people, with drug histories, having a conversation?" " Your Honor, that is enough." " Not to me." "Case dismissed." "Yes!" "You should have seen her." "It wasn't even close." " And he paid?" " He paid." "Listen to you guys." "You got a drug dealer off." "We successfully defended the Constitution with the spirit of our Founding Fathers." "Speaking of which..." "This is your date, Helen?" "I guess that explains things." "Everything except how you passed the bar." "Enjoy the night." "But you taking drug money?" "The RICO charges are being drafted as we speak." " Beat it, Dickie." " Dickie." "That's really funny." "Think of that off the top of your head?" "Go ahead." "Give me an excuse." "I'll knock those bifocals down your throat." " Bugs, Bugs, come on." " Walk away, Dickie." "What is that guy's problem?" "Nine-thirty." "They promised they'd come back tonight." "It's getting close to being too late already." "Cynthia, I should do another ultrasound, regardless, see what's going on." "Okay." "Tonight?" "Well, if not tonight, first thing tomorrow." " Cynthia, as someone who cares for you..." " Doctor, please." "They're coming back in." "You know, you're putting yourself in the soup, being seen with me." " I like soup." "The hotter the better." " I'll try to remember that." "I would've got you some, but I only had two paws." " Where's Lindsay?" " I don't know, she took off." "Maybe she went to dance with Ben Franklin." "What?" " Where were we?" " Nice party?" "Helen." "Of Troy, I guess." " Oh, Scott, you know Bobby Donnell?" " Yes, we've met before." " You've been a little bit of a nemesis lately." " Well, we try to do the job." "Your firm seems to be growing." "I just bumped into a chubby rabbit who says he works for you." "Yeah, Jimmy Berluti." "He's a good lawyer." " It's a good firm." " Yes, it must be." "I hear enough griping about it." "Anyway, thank you for coming." "My pleasure." "Well, I can't think of a tougher case, emotionally, than this one." "The application of freedom is sometimes painful." "There is nothing more sacred to individual liberty than the individual's right to possession and control over his or her own person." "Even so, it is the unanimous wish of this court, Mrs. Randall that you save your child." "However, for us to order you to do so would be repugnant to our Constitution and to your freedom." "A competent woman's choice to refuse medical treatment must be honored." "The plaintiff's motion is denied." "We're adjourned." "You poor martyrs!" "How heroic of you to stand up for our Constitution." "The law was supposed to protect the weak." "That baby is a human being and your defense of our hallowed Constitution amounts to murder!" "That's a high price to pay for freedom, you heroes!" "Bobby?" "Last night at the party, I felt like a criminal." "I mean, not that I listened to Dick Flood, but let's face it, I'm a drug lawyer." "I'll see what I can do." "I've picked up six new clients in the last month." "They love my work." "Hell, I'm good at it." "If I don't stop, we could all start getting rich and then I'll never be able to stop." " You okay?" " Me?" "Why?" "You've been acting a little strange." "Did something happen?" "Your friend Helen." "How well do you know her?" " What'd she do?" " Is she a promiscuous person?" "Oh, Bobby, did she kiss you?" "I told her to kiss you!" "No, she didn't kiss me." "I didn't give her a chance to kiss me." " Where's Rebecca?" " She said she'd be back by lunch." " She went to the doctor with the Randalls." " Maybe we could get in with the SJC." " It's worth a try." " It's over, Ellenor." " What?" " What, you think it's funny?" "Bobby, she..." "Sometimes, she likes to shock." " "Likes to shock"?" " Come on." "What is this, girls will be girls?" "If I did that, I'd get sued." "She can be wild." "Did it really upset you?" " Is he okay?" " He seems so." "But the situation hasn't changed." " Laurie, could you tell Rebecca to come in?" " Sure." "He's really moving around in there." " I can't feel anything." " That's because I numbed you up, Cindy." "Hey, is it okay?" " Hi." " Hi." "Rebecca, if I could record this and bring it to a judge I mean, how can he deny that that's a person?" "It's over, Robert." "I mean, at least in the court." "All we can do now is hope that Cindy is right, and God will somehow..." "He will." "The only way for God to save this baby is for him to change your mind." " Oh, stop it." " Just look at that screen." "Look at your child." " For his sake, for God's sake." " Stop it!" " That's enough, Robert." " Please." "I'm almost done." "Go ahead, stand up there." "Hold your wife's hand." "I guess I'm just too emotional for this kind of work." "Now, Rebecca, for Michael's protection I want you to know that he doesn't know what's going on here." " What are you doing?" " Just relax." "Doctor, what are you doing?" " Dr. Larson?" " What's going on?" " Dr. Larson?" " Bring that tray." " What for?" "What's happening?" " And, Michael, Cynthia, congratulations." "You are the parents of a beautiful baby boy." " What have you done to me?" " Suction." " What have you done?" " Oh, my God." "Another towel, please." "Thank you." " There you are." "Yes." " What have you done?" "Yes." "Hold your son, Cynthia." " Hey." " You grabbed his..." "Are you insane?" " Of course I am." "Where is he?" " In his office." "Did I go too far?" "Well, he was acting so stiff, I figured a part of him might as well be." "Bobby, got a second?" "Yeah." "I'm sorry." "Sorry?" "If I did that, I'd be brought up on harassment." "Yeah, well, sometimes, the double standard cuts our way." "Look, I suppose you're wondering, does she go around fondling genitalia all the time?" "I don't." "I like you." "I just tried to shock you a little." "I'm thrilled that you're a prude, actually." "Let's face it, I think we both work hard, we both get lost in our cases." "I thought we needed something other than our jobs to talk about." "That's your explanation?" "That you were giving us something to talk about?" "Well, here's my home phone number." "I made the first move, but at heart, I'm a traditional girl." "So the ball's in your court." "She's already admitted, they'll take her right to her room." "And Laurie will go with you with the baby." "I don't know if I agree with what you did, but..." " Go." "Be with your wife and son." " Hey." " You're a criminal." " Technically, maybe." "No, really." "You took a knife and cut into a woman." "A woman who's the most grateful of all of us now." "That doesn't matter." "She refused." " You took a scalpel and you cut into..." " To rescue a baby." "You think you're some kind of hero." "You committed assault and battery." " Well, go to the police, Rebecca." " You know what?" "How dare you?" "How dare you?" "I wanted that baby to be safe just as much as you!" "But you took a knife and you put it into her!" " And I'd do it again!" " No, you won't!" "I will see to that!" "Let me tell you something." "She's bonding with that baby already." "She will not report this, because all that will do will disrupt their lives and put a microscope into a baby's life..." "That's what you're counting on?" "That they won't report you?" "Don't count on me!" " I did what I had to do." " And so will I." "He did what?" "He gave her a spinal under some pretense." " She couldn't feel what he..." " Wait, he just gave her a cesarean?" "All of a sudden, it was out, there." "He was holding it in his hands." "He cut her and took him out, the cord..." " Where are they now?" " At the hospital at Brigham." " And the baby's okay?" " Fine." "Everybody's fine." " I'm going to go see." " Yeah, I'm going too." "I'm going to the police." "That's gonna cause a lot of consequences and who's it gonna help?" "Lt'll help the next woman." "Eugene, I can't believe what I just saw!" "Just think on this some." "That's all." " I'm looking for Lindsay Dole." " I'm Lindsay Dole." "Ms. Dole?" "Jason Swoboda." "I've been referred to you by some friends and I was wondering if..." "What friends?" "Well, Benny Small, for one." "I'm a businessman." "And some of the people who work for me..." "I'm sorry, Mr. Swoboda, I'm not really taking on new clients." "I don't have an actual case for you now." "I was just hoping, you know, maybe to put you on retainer." "Sometimes, as I'm sure you know, things happen quickly." "I've had bad luck receiving payments from people in your business..." "I'll give you a retainer." "Well, I would need a retainer of at least $40,000 before I'd even consider it." "Here's my pager number." "Benny already gave me yours." "Thank you." " Hey." " Hey, Eugene." "Ellenor." " Oh, he's beautiful." " Yeah, yeah." "I heard what happened." " Are you okay with it?" " I don't know." "I guess things happen for a reason and..." "I don't know." "Sheila?" "Come see my boy." " Oh, he is gorgeous." " Yeah." "What?" " How did...?" " I just changed my mind." "We just want to be left alone now, Sheila." "No more attention, okay?" "Sure." " Hey, how about dinner?" " Tonight?" "Now?" "Well, you know, it's late and I figure you gotta eat." "Are you sure?" "You're not afraid of me?" " I'm not afraid of you." " You're sure?" "I'm not afraid of you." "Okay." "Truth is, dates scare me." "Especially the first-kiss part." "Okay, glad that's over with." " You are afraid." " I'm not afraid." "Let's go." "Lucky for you, I lead."
