Hello, Pat? Leslie.
:06:07
Listen, about our tennis date.
:06:10
(Chuckles) Yeah. No, I know,
I've been very forgetful lately.

:06:14
Pat, please, call me at the office
tomorrow at 12:15 sharp.

:06:19
Just say "tennis" and I'll remember
to put it on my office calendar.

:06:24
All right, Pat, goodbye.
:06:40
(Sighs)
:06:47
(Man) When did you sustain these injuries,
Mr Crowell?

:06:50
This September 16th, Friday,
8:30 in the evening.

:06:53
You were admitted for emergency care
on that night?

:06:56
Yes, I was.
St John's Hospital, Santa Monica.

:07:00
I'd like to introduce
these hospital records as exhibit A.

:07:03
Mr Crowell, what was the extent
of your injuries due to your fall?

:07:07
My back was hurt real bad.
:07:09
Objection. The plaintiff is not competent
to give medical testimony.

:07:13
Sustained.
:07:17
(Attorney) I will introduce exhibit B,
a doctor's report on the plaintiffs condition

:07:22
showing damage to the lumbar region
of the spine, with nerve damage,

:07:26
resulting in partial paralysis
to the left side of his body.

:07:30
- Did you find out anything?
- No one's seen or heard from him.

:07:34
- Did you check the hospitals?
- Not a thing.

:07:37
- What about the police?
- Zero. Shall we...?

:07:40
Let me think about it.
:07:42
Objection. Irrelevant and immaterial.
:07:44
Sustained. The answer may go out.
:07:47
- Shall we put out a missing persons report?
- I'll do it after lunch.

:07:51
- How goes it here?
- This middle-class jury

:07:54
dislike the insurance company almost
as much as they do working-class people.
