"You said she smokes after sex, but she hadn't had a cigarette in six months." "Yeah, she just meant that -- she..." "We cut ourselves off." "No sex six months before the wedding." "Seriously?" "It's the Hindu tradition of brahmacharya." "All right." "Abstinence allows us to fully devote ourselves to spiritual transcendence." "I went on a tear before I met Janie." "I-I wasn't a sex addict." "Well..." "At least, i didn't think I was, but..." "One morning, when I woke up with three members of the Tiger Lily Valet Service," "I decided it was time to slow down." "This is fantastic." "It takes a lot of discipline, but I feel like the reward is ultimately " "The circumstances surrounding" "Emily Claire's liaison with Chris Briggs deserve special consideration." "This was merely a chance meeting between two adult strangers on a beach over the summer that ended with them becoming intimate." "We all love "Grease," right?" "And besides, is there a single woman in this room who would have turned down a drink from Chris Briggs?" "You're out of line, Mr. Franklin." "Either defend your client or call a witness." "Sure." "I'd like to call a witness." "Miss Rachel Dawson is the bartender at Malibu Tavern." "Miss Dawson served the beverages to Emily Claire and Chris Briggs." "Now, Rachel, did you witness Chris Briggs bring other women into your establishment?" "Yes." "High-school students?" "No." "They appeared older." "I'd like you to look around at the people in this room." "Has anyone in this room, besides Emily Claire, ever left your bar in the company of Chris Briggs?" "Yes." "Someone did their homework." "Now, Rachel, I want you to think about this before I ask you to name the person." "See, because this board is wooing a significant donor, and your answer could jeopardize a much-needed new library or Koi pond." "Enough." "We've heard enough." "It's time to bring Emily's status to a vote." "This hearing is over." "Mr. Bash, do you have another witness today?" "Your Honor, we'd like to call Janie Ross to the stand." "Trust me." "Miss Ross, can you tell the court your relation to Mr. Connor?" "I'm his fiancée." "Fiancée." "That's French for "boyfriend," isn't it?" "We're getting married." "Uh-huh." "How long have you two been seeing each other?" "One year." "One year." "Wow, that's quick." "That's almost a rebound." "Do you consider yourself a sexual woman?" "Objection." "Relevance." "Uh, this case is about sex, isn't it, Your Honor?" "A short leash, Mr. Bash." "Um, I suppose I'm about average." "I suppose you forgot you're under oath." "I mean, you've had sex with men on the first date, right?" "No." "Yes." "Once." "Could you tell us, please, in the past six months, how many times have you had sex with your fiancé?" "We haven't had sex in the last six months." "Really?" "How refreshing." "Why is that?" "After Nathan proposed, he wanted us to abstain until we were married so that we could focus our energies toward a deeper understanding." "Quick." "That weekend in Big Bear?" "Are you still asking me about this?" "I've never had you under oath before." "They were real." "All of them." "Oh, my God." "Miss Ross, do you think someone who would abstain from sex for six months to make his wife's wedding night special would throw it all away for an hour with a hooker?" "No." "Uh, hold on a sec." "Hold everything." "This -- this is amazing." "Uh, from the arresting officer's report " ""Witness took 55 minutes to bring the suspect to orgasm."" "55 minutes!" "I mean, that is -- that is some impressive staying power from someone who hasn't had sex in six months." "I mean, whoever the real John was, he shouldn't be hiding." "He should be bowing at the waist, right?" "I guess so." "I mean, guys, right?" "] Order!" "55 minutes." "No further questions, Your Honor." "It's clear that, Chris Briggs, took advantage of Emily Claire in such a manner that no reasonable person would suspect that he was a student." "Therefore, the board votes unanimously to reinstate Emily Claire." "Thank you." "Oh, I'd like to leave a check for the model U.N." "Do me a favor." "Don't cash it till Thursday." "Thank you so much." "Well, it's what I do." "Okay, you have to tell me." "Who did Chris sleep with?" "Oh, I'm sorry." "I can't divulge that." "Me." "It was her." "Uh, but you -- you said that he slept with one of the board members." "You -- you lied." "No, Jared said someone else besides you in the room slept with Chris Briggs." "Punk never called me back." "Just sent a text." "Yeah, what a charmer." "You in the mood to celebrate?" "Um, I-I can't now." "But, um, dinner later?" "Dinner." "Listen, I'm not gonna say that what we did see out there was the Mongolian death worm, but something ate our camel." "Sorry." "What was the question?" "I was just asking, would Damien Karp be where he is if not for you?" "No." "No." "I mean, he'd be a fantastic partner somewhere." "Actually, the truth is," "I'm the beneficiary of the family connection." "Oh, Damien's a shark, but he -- he's also very brilliant." "He's gonna make a fantastic judge one day." "Okay." "Well, thanks for your time." "I want to hear the end of that Mongolian death worm story sometime." "Okay." "You know, Sony are trying to get Gary Oldman to play me." "Well, he should be so lucky." "Oh, uh, I saw they recovered" "Gibson Hawke's body on Mt." "McKinley." "What?" "Yeah." "Apparently, those lost hikers stumbled on it, and they brought the rescue team there." "That's got to give you some closure." "You finally know what happened to your old law colleague." "Yeah." "Yeah." "I love my "Not guiltys."" "I'd say this calls for monk beers at The Cave?" "Aw, Peter, I wish I could, but Janie and I have to talk." "We've got until the end of today to cancel our reservation at the chapel and the reception hall." "Seriously?" "Just postponing it until we sort some stuff out." "Dude, listen to me." "If this is your idea, you're an idiot." "I can tell by the way she looks at you " "Dude, I've looked into her eyes, and I'm telling you, she's yours." "All right, she needs someone stable, man, not a guy who lives for Burning Man every year." "You found a great girl." "So don't overanalyze it or meditate over it." "Just, for once, use your damn gut..." "Or other vital organ." "I love you, brother." "Ah." "You're not afraid of a man hug." "No." "Yeah." "Okay." "Yeah." "There it is again." "Okay." "Dude?" "You know what?" "Maybe I will join you guys for beers at The Cave." "Door's always open." "Wait." "So, you talked him into marrying Janie." "That is very "Casablanca" of you." "Yeah, except I may regret it -- maybe not now, maybe not tomorrow, but someday." "Well, if it makes you feel any better, you were there first." "Damn right." "Nothing can change that." "Nathan's..." "Mmm!" "Nathan's working downstream." "Hey, congratulations on your back-to-school day." "Thank you." "What is it about high school that still follows us around?" "I don't know." "As much as you try to prove you're not that little, insecure punk kid anymore, he's still there just..." "Tagging along." "All right, you know what?" "I'm gonna take it this time." "Come on, buddy." "It was a good day." "Feel better." "Yeah?" "Hey, how was your dinner with Emily?" "We didn't make it to dinner." "Ohh!" "Yeah." "Good for you." "That good for me." "It is good for you." "I got one for you." "Yeah." "Best bachelor-party movie ever?" "Okay." ""Hangover"..." "Yeah." "..."Bachelor Party"..." "Okay." "..."Very Bad Things"?" ""Very Bad Things" is a chick flick." "Get over it." "Those are the three." "Pick." "Well, you know my rule -- anything with mid-'80s Tawny Kitaen wins automatically." "Mmm." "Tawny Kitaen." "The Whitesnake video." "Get out of here." "Check!" "Done." "Check, please." "Tawny Kitaen." "== sync, corrected by elderman =="
