00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,320

00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 2: to come back.

00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 15: She's telling the truth, ma'am. She's an attorney. They run

00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 15: us associate's ragged.

167
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 4: Says on your application. You work in a clerical office,

168
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 4: Missus Weddington.

169
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 2: I just need the credit card, please, ma'am your husband.

170
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 9: I'm the one who makes the money in the family.

171
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 9: Such as it is, this is my credit.

172
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,679

00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 9: I'm putting my husband through law school on my clerical salary,

177
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 9: whether he minds or.

178
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 4: Puts yourself in our place, Missus Weddington. If women were

179
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 4: allowed to open up credit cards on a whim, a

180
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 4: lot of them would just go on to shopping spree.

181
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 9: Maybe your friend here could sign no, that's not necessary,

182
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 9: thank you.

183
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 15: See you around then, Sarah, you.

184
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 7: Look nervous, Harry, nonsense, Dottie. This is what I look

185
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 7: like when I grill.

186
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 16: Uh huh. You flipped that burger fourteen times. I believe

187
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 16: it's ready.

188
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 7: I just want this to go.

189
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 17: Well it will.

190
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 16: I'm not worried about one of them any other.

191
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 9: Well.

192
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 16: Remember, she's just a person like you or me.

193
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 7: She is not like you or me.

194
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 16: Oh boy, oh, here we go. Deep breath, my love,

195
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 16: we'll face them together. Yeah out here, girls, Lord give

196
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 16: us strength.

197
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 9: Ooh, it smells great.

198
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 2: So did you hear they had to cancel his birthday?

199
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,079
Speaker 16: Who's birthday? Oh, Susie, don't start.

200
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,679
Speaker 18: They practically had to barricade the White House.

201
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 11: Mom.

202
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 13: I don't think protesters have the ability to cancel the

203
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,079
Speaker 13: president's birthday, Susan, as much as you wish they could.

204
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 2: Oh my god, she's just being dramatic. Dad as always, Hi.

205
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 16: John Jay, Clarence Darrow, Hi Atticus, don't ignore Harmon kill

206
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 16: a brew and Billy Martin.

207
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 19: Girls, I was just about to say, hello, mom, all right,

208
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 19: if Doctor Doolittle hour is over, Sally, Susan, your mother

209
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 19: and I.

210
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 7: Need to speak with you.

211
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 2: What's going on? Dad?

212
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 7: Would you like a burger?

213
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: What's wrong?

214
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 2: Daddy?

215
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 9: Are you sick?

216
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 16: Nothing's wrong? Calm down, Susie.

217
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 7: Well that's a matter of opinion. Uncle Warren wants me

218
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 7: to join him on the bench.

219
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 2: Wait the bench? Are you serious? Can Uncle Warren do that?

220
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 19: Isn't it up to The President has apparently agreed, my

221
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 19: chief qualification being I'm uncontroversial. It's rather like being picked

222
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 19: to play shortstop at the Twins because I'm the same

223
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 19: shoe size as the previous fellow.

224
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 18: Also that you're a prominent member of a group passing

225
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 18: off cranky, outdated, closed minded, bigoted, paranoid opinions in response

226
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 18: to positive changes taking place in this country as if

227
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 18: they were genuine ideas, otherwise known as a Republican feel good.

228
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,599
Speaker 20: To get that off your chest, Susie, Dad's a judge.

229
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 20: His political party has no bearing hole Sally.

230
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 16: Actually, your father hasn't decided if he's taking the job yet.

231
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 2: Really, why not?

232
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 7: I despise DC Sally.

233
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 20: Okay, so allergies are our biggest concern here.

234
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 7: No, not the weather anyway, this is a family decision.

235
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 13: You and your sisters will be affected, and your poor mother,

236
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 13: she'll have to leave the dress shop in Rochester.

237
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 7: None of us gets out of this unharmed.

238
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 16: Unharmed. That's a little dramatic. Harry, even for you. I'm

239
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 16: quite certain there are dress shops in DC, Susie. I

240
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 16: think we all know where you stand. Sally. You haven't

241
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 16: expressed an opinion yet.

242
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,319
Speaker 2: She's obviously for it. Mom, she's dad in a dress.

243
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 15: Shut up.

244
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 2: I don't know, Okay, Well.

245
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 7: No one knows. I'm asking what you think.

246
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 2: And I'm saying I don't know.

247
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 20: I mean, I think it's sort of rich that they

248
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 20: want you to tell the whole country what to do

249
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 20: on every conceivable issue, when you can't even tell your

250
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 20: own daughter what to do when she needs it.

251
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 16: Young lady, what on earth is that supposed to mean?

252
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 2: I don't know.

253
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 20: I'm sorry. I'm proud of you, Daddy, I really am.

254
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:46,080
Speaker 2: Come here, Judge, come here, Yes, yes you are, study.

Speaker 9: show me your warrant.

323
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 7: Don't get cute, sweetie.

324
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 10: I don't need a warrant.

325
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 2: I think.

326
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 9: I mean you don't have a warrant, which makes this

327
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 9: an unauthorized search of private property. I can't give you

328
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 9: my keys, but I can't see you out.

329
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 7: Like I said, cute, I find my own way out.

330
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 2: I hope I did, all right, Dad?

331
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 17: You see that last night on the Bold Ones or something.

332
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 10: Good news is these have got to be the cleanest

333
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 10: returns I've ever seen. You're not a risk taker, Judge

334
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 10: black Man. Then used to be what's this houseworth?

335
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 17: Judge?

336
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 7: Why in the market? Agent Johnson?

337
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 3: Judge Blackman, please, why would.

338
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 7: You possibly need to know the value of my house?

339
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 3: Sir?

340
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 10: The more questions you ask, the longer this background check

341
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 10: is gonna take. You gotta be transparent. If you're nominated

342
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 10: to the Supreme Court, your middle school transcripts will become

343
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 10: public record.

344
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 13: I must have missed that part of Article three UM

345
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 13: twenty five thousand. Maybe okay, and please, hey, be careful

346
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 13: with those papers. They're in a very specific order.

347
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 7: Laddie. Now you're in for it. Agent in here, Susan,

348
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 7: what is all this?

349
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 13: This, Susan, is a colonoscopy posing as a background check.

350
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 13: Say hello to agent Johnson. If he stays another fifteen minutes,

351
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 13: he'll know more about me than your mother does.

352
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 2: It's so said that that's.

353
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 10: True, all due respect, Judge, you're getting off easy. Our

354
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 10: vetting process is usually much more invasive. But there seems

355
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 10: to be some urgency here.

356
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, because Nixon blue with.

357
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 18: His first two nominees, Susan, he did dun.

358
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 3: The seat's been vacant a year, so your Susan the youngest.

359
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 3: This actually saves me a trip if you have a moment.

360
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 13: Absolutely out of the question, dud, It's okay, my daughters

361
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:15,959
Speaker 13: are off limits.

362
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 7: Agent Johnson.

363
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 3: Really not how this works, Judge.

364
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 2: All right, Dad, what do you need to know?

365
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 3: I have here?

366
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 10: You went to work for the Naval Medical Research Institute

367
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 10: after college, that's right, but you've since left.

368
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 2: Okay, I see where this is going.

369
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 7: What does this have to do with my nomination?

370
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 10: You and three female colleagues have filed the class action suit.

371
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 17: Yes, we have.

372
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,640
Speaker 7: Again, this has nothing to do with how I would

373
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:38,679
Speaker 7: rule from the bench.

374
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 10: Judge, I'll due respect. You don't see how this is relevant.

375
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 3: I certainly do not take my word for it, Judge,

376
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 3: it is.

377
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,679
Speaker 19: If I can just say something, my daughter being a

378
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 19: party in a lawsuit has no bearing.

379
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 3: It's who she's suing, Judge.

380
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 7: Who she's suing is im material.

381
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 3: She's suing the United States Navy.

382
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:04,119
Speaker 18: It's about sexual discrimination. They treated us differently, They treated

383
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 18: us terribly.

384
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 10: You've also joined anti war protests, sometimes violent ones, on

385
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 10: several occasions.

386
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:10,679
Speaker 3: Miss Blackman, Yeah, who has it?

387
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 7: Okay, we're done here.

388
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 10: Miss Your father's being considered for a position that would

389
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 10: make him one of the most powerful people in government

390
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,639
Speaker 10: with a lifetime tenure. If I didn't ask about your

391
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,200
Speaker 10: apparent distaste for our country, I wouldn't be doing my job.

392
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 3: My distaste for our country.

393
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 13: Out of my house, Agent Johnson, now judge out, Well,

394
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 13: that actually went better than I thought it would.

395
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 2: You can do this there. Come on, deep breath, deep breath, life,

396
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 2: isn't everything? Get out of the car.

397
00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 14: Come on, nothing from your friend at the Dallas Morning

398
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 14: News be I mean, how can they not want to

399
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 14: report about doctors being persecuted like this?

400
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 21: I stopped ask him when he said he'd need to

401
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 21: write about our referral network. I don't particularly want to

402
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:25,520
Speaker 21: go to jail.

403
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 17: Deb Well, something's got to give.

404
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,439
Speaker 21: Well, that's the whole point of filing suit. But no

405
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 21: Texas court will agree to hear.

406
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 17: Us, which is why we ought to go federal.

407
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 21: How can that to pay for that deb We're sitting

408
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 21: in your damn driveway. Even if the carrot cake, If

409
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 21: this bake sale is any good, we'd had three customers

410
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 21: all day.

411
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 17: I don't know.

412
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:49,159
Speaker 14: More bake sales, garage sales, whatever it takes. My sister

413
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 14: works at County and last night, she admitted a woman

414
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 14: who nearly killed herself trying to use chopsticks. Women are

415
00:19:55,840 --> 00:20:00,040
Speaker 14: drinking castor oil? Do you hear what I'm saying? I

416
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 14: do not have time to wait?

417
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 2: Hello?

418
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 17: Am I interrupting prom queen.

419
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 2: It's Sarah? Actually Sarah Weddington.

420
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:09,120
Speaker 17: What are you doing here?

421
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 2: Yesterday at the office? I overheard you're having a big sale.

422
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,639
Speaker 2: You have a sweet tooth, sweetie, take your pick.

423
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 21: We could use the money.

424
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 2: And you're trying to file a federal lawsuit.

425
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 17: This is a closed meeting. Actually, be nice.

426
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 21: Deb Sarah's not a cop. She works ten feet from you.

427
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,640
Speaker 2: A lawsuit over the Texas abortion laws. Right.

428
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 9: I sort of figured the cop who came into the

429
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 9: office yesterday chasing that doctor.

430
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 2: It was about a referral.

431
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 21: Service, right, Pregnant women call, We let them know where

432
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 21: they can find a doctor.

433
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 17: Who will help me.

434
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 2: You don't know who.

435
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 17: Princess will go squealing.

436
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 2: To help them and their pregnancy.

437
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,959
Speaker 17: No, help them get their nail polish removed? Is this

438
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 17: chick for real?

439
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 2: Are you in the movement?

440
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 17: Sarah? Look at her bee.

441
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,720
Speaker 14: A ten pound cat would disappear in that hairdoo. She's

442
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 14: obviously not do.

443
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:06,360
Speaker 9: You quiet, deb Sarah, She's right, I'm not in the movement.

444
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 14: No kidding, and she obviously doesn't have any experience with abortion, right.

445
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 9: Look, I don't think that's who you should be looking

446
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 9: for or what you need. And we may be able

447
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 9: to help each other.

448
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 17: Yeah, I don't think so help each other.

449
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,400
Speaker 9: How, Sarah, Well, I'm not really a typist.

450
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 14: Ooh, let me guess avon, lady, No, president of the PTA,

451
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 14: I'm a lawyer.

452
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:29,439
Speaker 21: Really?

453
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 17: Oh please? You went to law school.

454
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 2: Graduating near the top of my class.

455
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 17: Mm hmm. You ever worked on a case?

456
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 9: Just a couple of wills and an adoption from my uncle.

457
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 2: You've been to court? Then court? Oh? No, god?

458
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 14: No, Okay, Look, beauty, queen, you seem sweet, and that's

459
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 14: a very pretty pastel dress you have on. But we

460
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 14: don't need some twenty nine year old coming in here

461
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 14: and telling.

462
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 2: Us twenty five actually, wow, there.

463
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 17: You go, now, if you'll expa wait.

464
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 9: A second, you're talking about challenging a two hundred year

465
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 9: old law on the grounds of women's rights in a

466
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 9: state where it's still technically illegal for a girl to

467
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,920
Speaker 9: adjust her stockings in public. It's not long since I

468
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,439
Speaker 9: played high school basketball, and we weren't allowed to take

469
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 9: more than two dribbles before passing off for fear that

470
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 9: the exertion would damage our reproductive capacities.

471
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 2: What you're trying to do is impossible.

472
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 9: And I promise you your opposition isn't sitting around a bake

473
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 9: sale right now. Your opposition is the sovereign state of Texas,

474
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,640
Speaker 9: presumably District Attorney Henry Wade, who's been on the job

475
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 9: thirty five years and send as many men to death row.

476
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 21: So you think it's hopeless, Sarah.

477
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 9: I know it's hopeless, Bee, so do you. But that

478
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 9: doesn't matter it does it. A lawsuit will make some noise,

479
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,119
Speaker 9: and noise is what's required right now. Noise is what

480

485
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 9: a little girl, there's nothing else I wanted to do.

486
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 9: It sounds like you all have no money to hire

487
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 9: a lawyer, and even if you did, no respectable attorney

488
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,680
Speaker 9: would take you on. I'm not used to a certain

490
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 9: But I came here today to say I think maybe

00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:16,879
Speaker 9: we're a match.

492
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 2: What's in it for you, Sarah? We can't pay you.

493
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 9: I interviewed at every firm in Texas that would meet

494
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:26,200
Speaker 9: with me after my graduation. It was always too delicate,

495
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:30,199
Speaker 9: too pretty, too bad. I just need a shot, I

496
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 9: need a case.

500
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,720

501
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 21: A dozen firms have turned us down.

502
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 9: I know the feeling, and it's a shame because a

503
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 9: federal lawsuit is incredibly complex and time intensive. Putting it

504
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 9: in my hands would be like asking some guy you

505
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 9: found swinging a bat in your driveway.

506
