:13:00
Now let's get to the point here.
:13:01
You know, Tom,
I always had the highest regard for you...
:13:06
both as a lawyer and a human being.
:13:09
I appreciate that.
:13:11
That's why I picked you to give the keynote
at the banquet tonight.
:13:14
Every year some poor son of a bitch
has to get in front of the crowd...
:13:18
and spout comforting nonsense.
:13:20
This year, I want to hear it
from someone with style and charm.
:13:25
I want to hear it from someone
who's my choice...
:13:28
for the next district attorney.
:13:32
You.
:13:36
Me?
:13:38
This is finally it, folks,
my last year as your district attorney.
:13:45
Too late.
:13:46
Appeal denied.
:13:49
Now then, the big question is
who'll replace me?
:13:53
Well, perhaps someone
like our keynote speaker here.
:13:56
For the past 12 years, I've given this man...
:13:59
the toughest assignments
and the heaviest case loads...
:14:02
for one simple reason:
he gets thejob done!
:14:06
Ladies and gentlemen...
:14:08
a man whose past performance...
:14:10
guarantees him a brilliant future,
Tom Logan.
:14:25
Chelsea, wait.
:14:26
Let's do something.
:14:29
I think this is better.
:14:33
Yeah. Much better.
:14:36
An attorney has to know the truth.
:14:38
Whether he attacks it or defends it...
:14:40
the truth is the touchstone of his trade.
:14:43
That's tricky, because clients often lie.
:14:49
I don't know what it is about us, but...
:14:51
it seems to be human nature,
to lie to a lawyer.
:14:56
That him?
:14:56
Ifyour client was 5 miles away
from the crime scene...
:14:59
he'd tell you he was 10 miles away.
