(machinery noise/hammering)
:45:34
What's all this Miz Colbert's been
tellin' me about a... a cover-up arrest?
:45:40
No, ma'am. We ain't had no cover-up.
:45:43
In fact, we just dropped the charges
for insufficient evidence.
:45:48
Miz Colbert, l told you
he was nobody's man.
:45:51
I came by to make it
as clear as l possibly can
:45:55
that l do not want that Negro officer
taken off this case.
:46:01
Negro officer?
:46:05
Yeah, well, he, uh...
He comes from up North, you see.
:46:08
And he was, uh, kinda...
:46:14
- passin' through...
- If it wasn't for him,
:46:17
your impartial chief of police would still
have the wrong man behind bars.
:46:23
I want that officer given a free hand.
:46:26
Otherwise, l will pack up
my husband's engineers...
:46:34
and leave you...
:46:38
to yourselves.
:46:47
Miz Colbert, now don't you
worry about a thing.
:46:49
Believe me, we're gonna
take care of everything.
:46:54
Bill?
