"Hey, Ms. Mullen." "Finn, your father was just telling me how he's putting himself up as an auction prize." "SCARLET:" "A day with Keegan Deane." "Marcus still hates you." "If the Mayor keeps hating me and we keep talking." "Who knows where this could lead?" "(CHUCKLES)" "You owe us $63,000." "(GRUNTS) I'll be looking for you." "Has this house gone insane?" "What is up with you two?" "My marriage..." "I can't do it anymore, Keegan." "You're gonna bring your teacher here to have sex with her?" "I love her." "KEEGAN:" "Finn, your mom..." "She thinks I'm the one who's hot for teacher." "I need your help with one of my former clients." "Just stay away from Mikki." "What, you mean the slut?" "(ELEVATOR DINGS) Good to catch up, Clay." "(GROANS)" "MIKKI:" "Yeah, it was an amazing life..." "I mean, beyond charmed." "(CHUCKLES)" "I told you my dad was a diplomat." "We got to..." "Go to all these fabulous places and meet all these fabulous people." "I know." "It was a fairy tale." "Yeah, and then when I was 17, my parents were killed in a plane crash..." "And everything fell apart." "I turned to all sorts of stuff." "It got really, really dark for me for a really long time." "Jules saved my life when he found me." "I mean, Keegan, do you get this?" "He literally saved my life." "And now I have a chance to start again, so that's what I'm doing." "I'm starting again." "Why are you telling me this now?" "Because I want you to understand." "And because I owe it to you." "What?" "(CHUCKLES)" "Come on. (LAUGHS) Really?" "Oh.  "Backgammon for blood:" "A guide for those who like to play"" "but"..." "BOTH:" "Love to win." "That's me." "For helping me with Clay Randolph." "What are not-quite friends for?" "Right." "You sure you don't want some of this?" "It's from downstairs." "No, thank you." "(CLEARS THROAT) We could go out, but I read that there's over 9,400 full-service restaurants in Los Angeles." "Oh, my God, that is, like, too many choices." "Exactly." "Stalin was right." "Was he?" "Hmm, too many choices would be the decadent west's undoing." "Commodity fetishism." "I think that was Karl Marx." "See, this is good, right?" "We can be pals." "Yeah, it's good." "I don't know how this "pals" manifests itself." "We can play it by ear." "It was Marx." "For example, I got a birthday party this week." "Got to go." "I'm dreading it." "There'll be a lot of lawyers there, people." "It's just..." "You could go with me as a..." "Pal?" "Would that be too..." "Probably a little too date-ish." "That's what I think too." "Good." "This is surprisingly good." "(DOG BARKING)" "(SIREN IN DISTANCE)" "MAN:" "Hey!" "Hey, you!" "Hey!" "OFFICER:" "L.A.P.D. stop where you are!" "(SIREN WAILING)" "(TIRES SQUEALING)" "Oh!"

"Hmm, well, I'm supposed to interview him about what his favorite things are." "Well, I can probably help you." "You know I know everything about your father." "Okay." "Okay." "Okay." "What's his favorite color?" "Blue." "Favorite kind of music?" "Rock and roll." "Led Zeppelin." "Led Zeppelin?" "Mmm-hmm." "All right, what's his favorite piece of clothing?" "His necktie..." "The one with the mermaids on it." "Cool, mom." "Yeah, that's the nice thing about being married to someone." "You get to know them so well." "There's no surprises." "Fog." "Zog." "(CHUCKLES) Dog." "Bollocks." "Okay, second word." "Bevan." "Boyfriend from Scotland?" "Is he having a seizure?" "Stop." "We're playing charades." "He's really good." "Yeah, no, he looks committed."

"What a pleasure." "Keegan Deane." "Steven Goodman." "This is my son Louis." "(CLICKS SWITCH)" "Oh, all right, well, sit down here." "What's your field?" "Oh, uh, hepatology." "Oh." "I don't like snakes." "That's herpetology." "Hepatology's the liver." "Right." "Well, I knew it was something slimy." "(CHUCKLES) How can I help you, sir?" "I don't need any help." "I'm..." "I'm here about my..." "My son's winning auction prize." "Uh-huh." "Win a day with a lawyer..." "The school auction prize." "Oh, right." "Of course, of course." "Is that today?" "Yes." "And I have to be in surgery all day, so I really need to run." "I have given all my information to the young lady out front there." "(CLICKS FINGERS) Louis, be good." "No, no, no." "Hold on for a second." "Leanne!" "Where's my ca..." "This isn't on my calendar!" "She knows." "There's a language barrier there." "Sir, there's no possible way" "I can take this young man today, okay?" "And for the record, a day with a lawyer is..." "You know, my time's fairly valuable here." "I might be able to let the little guy watch me roll calls for 90 minutes at some point, but that's it." "I paid for a whole day." "I understand that, sir." "How much did you pay?" "$150." "$150?" "That was the winning bid?" "That was the only bid." "I paid $12,000 for a bench at that thing." "I..." "I really do need to..." "What?" ""Day with the auction kid."" "Okay, but I don't read this crap." "You know that." "You got to be more efficient." "The man's standing here..." "Where's your..." "Where..." "Where did your dad go?" "Hey!" "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!" "Hey!" "Dr. Goodman." "(PEN CLICKS)" "No, no, no." "Unbelievable." "You call this guy, and you tell him to pick him up in 90 minutes, or he's gonna be in the lobby." "Can I have this?" "Yeah, sure." "Actually, no." "No, sorry." "See..." "Hi." "That's very, um, expensive." "See, this pipe belonged to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and I think Mr. Hardy would be very upset if he knew it was missing." "So what?" "You want to be a lawyer?" "Is that the idea?" "A lot of reading." "You like reading?" "Let me guess." "You see dead people." "Hey, you got to help me out here." "No, no, no, I don't do kids." "What's on the schedule?" "You have a 10:30 tax hearing with David Potter." "Other than that, it's pretty slow." "I guess I could try the rotunda." "Take a child to the rotunda..." "Really?" "We all have to grow up sometime, Leanne." "KEEGAN:" "This is it." "They call it the rotunda." "It's not pretty, but if you're a lawyer looking for a quick client, these are the feeding grounds." "Yeah, I'm stuck here all day, okay?" "Just tell him ten units on the first account." "Hey." "For the record, I reject the term "ambulance chasing."" "This is the last line of defense for the common man looking for justice." "So, if you were to find a nice, above-average-looking common man, you just, sit down here." "Do this." "(WOMAN SIGHS)" "My father taught me never to walk past a beautiful woman in distress." "Oh, thank you." "I'm fine." "Somebody in trouble..." "Husband?" "Brother?" "Georgie, my son." "Oh." "I got a son of my own." "I tell you, they can be a handful." "Oh, he's a good boy." "(CHUCKLES)" "Isn't he a little angel?" "Oh, a balding, middle-aged little angel." "Look at him." "Adorable." "I do everything for him." "I cook his meals, lay out his clothes." "Sometimes if Georgie's not feeling bashful, he lets me make him a piping-hot bubble bath." "Honey hibiscus is his favorite." "I can feel my muscles relaxing just thinking about that." "(BOTH CHUCKLING)" "Well, not to say he's perfect." "You know, he makes mistakes." "But I'm the one who brought him into this wicked world, so I'm to blame for what happened." "Not to pry, but was he arrested?" "Trespassing." "Taking a shortcut through a neighbor's yard is what he said, but I think he's lying to me." "Oh..." "Lying to his mother." "Why?" "(SOBBING)" "I think I can help." "Really?" "But only if you quit crying." "You can help us?" "Ma'am, I'm so good at helping people, I do it for money." "Okay, so arrested 9/19." "Complainant Molly Boudreau?" "Defendant George Copely..." "That's you." "Arrested for loitering, trespassing, and..." "Index?" "(CHUCKLES)" "All right, this'll be pretty straightforward stuff, George." "It's fine." "You want to run down to the vending machine?" "Grab me a little something, kiddo?" "I'm fine." "How about for yourself?" "My treat." "No." "They got king-kongs." "No, thanks." "He doesn't want to do it." "All right, your loss." "Uh, you understand what the..." "What the case is here pretty much." "No." "It's a deviancy case, George, so..." "I don't understand." "Your tom was peeping." "Hold on." "Now, that's what they..." "I'm not a peeping tom." "What's a peeping tom?" "Come on, just..." "Why don't you just sit..." "There you go." "Just take a little look out there out the window, and I'll be right back." "Okay, look..." "I know." "Listen, I am the victim here." "Okay?" "Yeah." "Not closing her blinds, prancing around where anyone and everyone can see?" "She will not leave me alone." "Right." "Well, maybe you crossed a line, but the truth is what red-blooded American hasn't taken a peek or two?" "Or three?" "Four..." "Nine?" "When I watch Molly..." "I'm not looking at everything." "That would be vulgar." "I'm a specialist." "I..." "I'm only interested in one very specific part of her." "Uh-huh." "What part is that?" "The areola..." "The part around the nipple." "Hers are perfect." "They are like this magical blend of color, texture, and circular-ness." "When I'm..." "When I'm standing in the shadows outside of her window and I look in and the light hits it, it's like a halo." "Keep your voice down." "You're gonna alarm the kid." "Look, this is fine." "I got enough here to bring to the judge for bail, okay?" "We'll be fine." "This is just between us, right?" "Uh-huh. 'Cause my mom's gonna ask." "Whatever you do, don't tell her." "No, we don't want her to think you have issues." "No, listen!" "Just..." "If she finds out, then that would be bad." "You're sure it's just trespassing?" "Yeah, the city's cracking down." "They really want people off each other's lawns." "The arrest report said George was charged with trespassing and index." "What does this "index" mean?" "It's basically, uh, anything limited to but not exclusively outside of the scope of a..." "It's so hard to explain." "It's a legalese issue." "There's nothing else you want to tell me?" "Remember, I'm his mother." "And you're doing a wonderful job." "Thank you so much, Mrs. Copely." "I'll be in touch, all right?" "Thank you." "Kee, the rotunda?" "Things that bad?" "What are you doing here?" "What are you doing here?" "Well, I'm not here." "I'm just dropping something off." "Yeah, I'm just helping the kid out." "The kid?" "Yeah, I'm just doing some charity work for Finn's school." "Kid's dad broke the bank so he could tail me for the day." "Showing him the good, the bad, and the ugly." "Good for you." "Hey, you going to Bergson's dinner party tomorrow?" "I was hoping to bring a date." "Come on, Scarlet and I will be there." "I don't know." "Since when do you need a date?" "You'll just end up going home with the hostess." "Hey, how's Scarlet doing?" "Scarlet?" "She's great." "(CELL PHONE RINGING)" "Hello?" "Hey, sweetie." "You're working at home today?" "Mmm-hmm." "So I was thinking maybe we go crazy and shake things up a bit tonight." "Oh, yeah?" "What'd you have in mind?" "Instead of cooking, let's order in." "Chinese, Thai..." "What do you think?" "Chinese is fine." "The usual?" "You got it." "Scar, you okay?" "Yeah." "I'm great." "So that is pretty much it, kiddo." "That's the job." "Should probably get you back home." "We'll give your dad a call." "It's only 10:18." "Crap." "Come on, kid, we're off to see the wizard." "(TELEPHONE RINGING)" "Yes, Jeanette?" "I'm sorry, Mrs. Barzmann, but the Mayor's still stuck in his meeting." "(SCOFFS)" "He knows we had a breakfast date for over an hour ago, right?" "I'll ring you when he's available." "(SCOFFS)" "(ELECTRIC RAZOR BUZZING)" "What's it gonna be today, Deane, hmm?" "Your motion for continuance..." "What's your latest nonsense excuse?" "Fire, alien invasion, locusts?" "Something tells me your luck's about to run out, so it better be good." "Oh, it's good, Harry." "Yeah, it better be." "(CHUCKLES)" "I'm starting to think you don't like me, Harry." "I'm gonna speak honestly, which is something that you're obviously incapable of doing." ""Like" has nothing to do with it." "Oh." "I am here because you violated tax code 24-B77-C, and I am here to make sure that you're held accountable." "I don't think that's it." "I think I make you feel like you're missing out on a good time." "You know?" "You could be the guy who gets the pretty girl and the party invites and the last laugh too." "Give me a break." "No, I'm not kidding." "You just got to relax." "Let your hair down a little bit." "Try wearing a different tie, or is that issued by the IRS?" "You know, I'm here to do my job." "You want to make it personal?" "You go ahead." "You just said I was incapable of speaking honestly, Harry." "You know what you're capable of?" "You're capable of being a smug, self-serving, tax-evading shyster." "My name is David Potter, and this tie was given to me by my mother, so back off." "JUDGE RUTCHLAND:" "All right, we're back." "Mr. Deane, have you cleared up the matter of your financial records?" "Good news, your honor." "My, uh, contacts in the Bulgarian consulate are making progress in finding a translator." "Meanwhile, I wanted to read some results from the mold survey of the basement where my financial records are kept." "No." "Excuse me, your honor?" "Your excuses may be infinite, but this court's patience is not." "Are you or are you not prepared to make restitution to the U.S. Government?" "Today?" "Very well." "It is the opinion of this court (SCOFFS) that the government has laid out a strong and substantial case of tax evasion." "As such, I am prepared to rule that the government may proceed with the filing of both civil charges against the defendant." "(SOBBING)" "What's the matter?" "My dad." "He's sick, and I'm sad." "RUTCHLAND:" "Mr. Deane..." "What?" "Are we losing your attention, Mr. Deane?" "No." "Sorry." "He's sick?" "What?" "My dad..." "He's in the hospital." "With whom are you speaking, Mr. Deane?" "(SOBS)" "This..." "This is my ward, your honor." "Your ward?" "Yes, I'm sorry for my lack of preparedness today, your honor, but the young man's father is in surgery today." "I've been asked to keep his spirits up." "Is this true, young man?" "Your father's in the hospital?" "Yes, sir." "Liver transplant." "(SOBBING)" "(KEEGAN SHUSHING) Okay, okay, okay." "Well, that was a close one." "Thank you." "Well, you have to do something for me now." "Anything." "You name it." "Quite the plate spinner, aren't you, Deane, hmm?" "Oh, it's not really a good time, Potter." "My ward's..." "He's pretty upset." "No matter how smart you think you are, one of these days you are gonna stumble, and all those little plates are gonna come crashing down around you." "Now, I hope that I am there to watch them shatter." "(CELL PHONE RINGING)" "Plate spinning." "People even do that?" "MADDY:" "Your son's sleeping with his teacher, and you knew about it?" "I cannot believe this." "How could you be so irresponsible?" "Sweetheart, breathe." "You breathe, Bruce." "Let's all agree to keep breathing." "Tell me again what you saw." "Finn left his backpack, so I drove to the school, and that's where I saw them, kissing in the kiln room, and you knew all about it!" "I didn't know anything about a kiln room." "And how about the fact that I didn't sleep with her?" "Remember when you were all worried about that?" "What kind of a father lets a fully grown woman molest his son?" "Okay, I probably should've taken a harder line." "But I think we're overreacting here." "She's his teacher." "She's 20 years older than him." "You know, I'm of the school that believes a young man can be just as sexually vulnerable as a young woman." "You're of the school, Bruce?" "Well, I'm of the house, as in why are you in mine?" "The same could be asked about the weird kid out in the waiting room." "Maddy, that boy won me." "That's it." "We're done." "You should leave." "This isn't that unusual." "My first kiss was with the wife of my troop leader." "I turned out okay." "We're done." "Finn, hey, it's your dad, okay?" "We really need to talk." "So give me a call when you get a chance, all right?" "Bye." "All right, buddy." "You got your 150 bucks' worth." "All right?" "We're gonna grab you a bus, get you home."

"Look, I don't want my money back, okay?" "I want my winnings, $19,000." "And if I don't get it, something's gonna happen." "Is that right?" "You gonna..." "You gonna twist my arm, break my legs?" "There's a waiting list." "Take this." "Let's go." "The other day, I met a stranger who took me down into the rotunda, and he whispered to a peeping tom and lied to a little, old lady."

"I got to go." "He doesn't know that I'm here." "That would be bad for both of us." "Well, then why are you doing this?" "I don't know." "Maybe I'm trying to protect you." "Why?" "Maybe I like you."

"There's no conspiracy charge here." "The prosecution concedes that the killer, whoever that is, acted alone." "Only question is, who acted?" "Who pulled the trigger?" "(BOTH MOUTHING)" "Honestly, I'm tempted to come clean with you guys today." "It's not usually my style, and honesty tends to be frowned upon in my line of work." "There's ethical complications." "No matter how bad they seem, everybody deserves a defense." "There's rules to this job, right?" "But maybe just this once, we say, "screw the rules."" "Huh?" "Ladies and gentlemen, this man, George Copely, shot and killed Molly Boudreau." "He did it!" "He's a repeat sexual offender whose own highly particular obsession with the victim drove him to madness and to murder." "He had motive, opportunity, and credible intent to commit this crime." "I mean, the guy is a self-described areola aficionado, for god sakes." "Let's skip to the end of this thing and go home." "He's guilty." "But it's not that easy, is it?" "'Cause we got the woman..." "A protective mother whose son's most recent arrest caused her to snap." "She took out her shame on her boy's tormentor." "This is a woman who witnesses will testify was overheard screaming at the victim an hour before the murder, calling her a "tarty witch"" ""who better release my Georgie"" ""from her spell or suffer the consequences."" "This woman, Dorothy Copely, shot and killed Molly Boudreau." "And so now you're all confused, right?" "I am, too." "I'm confident one of my clients is a cold-blooded murderer." "But which one?" "I don't know." "I have doubts about both." "And I'll bet many of you do, too." "So it follows that if we have doubts over which defendant is guilty, we must also have doubts over which one is innocent." "And if that's true..." "You have to acquit them both." "I'm not gonna try and convince you that this is justice." "I can't." "It isn't." "It's just the law." "Thank you for helping us." "We couldn't have won without you." "Thanks." "Georgie, let's go." "It's bath night." "(TELEPHONE RINGING)" "I'm in no mood, kid." "I want my money." "Okay, you'll get your money, okay?" "I just need a little time." "$19,000." "A lot of time." "Where the hell is my office?" "Down there." "Huh?" "(SCOFFS)" "What kind of person doesn't pay his debts?" "Come on, kid." "I'm going through a little bit of a rough stretch here, okay?" "Just..." "Do me a personal favor and just give me a break?" "Please?" "Give me my money, or I'll do something." "Go ahead!" "Scream!" "Shout!" "Release the hounds!" "Tell everybody I touched you in your bathroom place." "That's right." "You got me confused with somebody who gives a crap." "You want to know what kind of person I am?" "I'm the guy that gets murderers off so they can go make this sideways circus fire of a city the paradise that it is." "So go back to your bunker and grow hemlock or kick kittens or do whatever the hell you were doing before we met, because we're done." "You understand?" "That's it." "Hemlock." "Okay, babe?" "Ah." "White Russian?" "Mmm-hmm." "I'm getting my Lebowski on." "Your what?" ""Smokey, this is not 'nam."" ""This is bowling." "There are rules."" "(LAUGHS)" ""Has the whole world gone crazy?"" "(ALL LAUGHING)" "Come on,  The Big Lebowski, myfavoritemovie." "I thought it was  Caddyshack." "No, man, Lebowski." "The dude abides." "MAX:" "I'm sorry, mom." "About what?" "You do not know everything about dad." "No, I guess I don't know everything about dad." "Go finish setting the table." "(TELEPHONE RINGING)" "WOMAN:" "Internal revenue service, enforcement division." "Harry..." "Sorry." "David Potter's office." "Who may I ask is calling?" "Hello?" "Hello?"
