1:00:01
The jury will remain.
1:00:13
Someday, I'm going to
horrify tradition...

1:00:15
and lay a dense, blue cloud...
1:00:18
of tobacco smoke
in that hallowed courtroom.

1:00:21
What's on your mind, Mr. Dancer?
1:00:23
Your Honor, in view of Dr. Smith's
testimony, I thought perhaps...

1:00:26
the defense might like
to change their plea.

1:00:27
- Change it to what?
- Guilty, of course.

1:00:30
No, we'll still go for broke.
1:00:32
Hell, Paulie, you know a guy's
not considered legally nuts...

1:00:35
in Michigan unless
he didn't know right from wrong.

1:00:37
- Why don't you get this over with?
- Your Honor, will you turn to page 486?

1:00:41
- What's that?
- Appears to be a law book, Mr. Lodwick.

1:00:47
Oh, I'm sorry, Your Honor.
1:00:49
I make those things
to help me think sometimes.

1:00:52
- For perch?
- No, it was for frog.

1:00:54
What case is he citing?
1:00:56
We gig frogs
in my part of the country.

1:00:58
It's the same up here.
I'm a trout man, myself...

1:01:01
but this is a new wrinkle
I'm gonna try.

1:01:03
They do it in the Bayou, down South.
The idea, they get a big, long pole...

1:01:07
and about a ten-pound line,
just sort of...

1:01:09
drift along a high bank
in a boat.

1:01:11
Then you see that big, old bullfrog
in the crevice...

1:01:15
and sort of float this along
in front of him.

1:01:17
Pop! That old tongue of his
snaps out, and--

1:01:20
You've got frog legs
for supper.

1:01:22
- I'll be darned.
- Why don't you keep it?

1:01:24
- Try it sometime.
- Thanks. I will.

1:01:27
Four eighty-six.
1:01:30
- What is it, Your Honor?
- People v, Durfee, 1 886.

1:01:34
Looks like a precedent.
1:01:36
Would you like to read it?
1:01:39
No, thank you, Your Honor.
I think I recall the case.

1:01:44
We're hooked...
1:01:47
like the frog.
1:01:51
Dr. Harcourt, where did you receive
your university training?

1:01:54
Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, Maryland.
1:01:56
And where do you practice now?
1:01:58
I'm the medical superintendent of the
Bonder State Hospital for the Insane.
