The bench will sit much softer
if the old man is retired.

1:57:04
The second retirement is a bit unusual.
Jensen, of all people.

1:57:09
Advise further that the pelican
should arrive here in 4 years...

1:57:12
...assuming other factors. "
1:57:15
There's no signature.
1:57:17
Then Justices Rosenberg and Jensen
were killed.

1:57:23
I firmly believe that this is
the work of Mattiece and his associates.

1:57:27
Memo doesn 't mention Mattiece,
but it refers to a client.

1:57:30
Wakefield had no other clients.
1:57:32
And no client had as much to gain
from the new court.

1:57:37
I thought that I was protecting us
by not revealing what I found.

1:57:42
You'll only see this if I'm gone,
so I will have failed.

1:57:47
I'm sorry, sweetheart.
1:57:54
I'll always be with you.
1:57:58
Always.
1:58:02
This is Marty Velmano. What a pleasure!
What can I do for you?

1:58:06
We're doing a story
about Victor Mattiece...

1:58:10
...and his involvement in the deaths
of Rosenberg and Jensen.

1:58:14
Great! We'll sue you for the next 20
years. You'll be named as a defendant.

1:58:19
Oh, this will be great.
1:58:21
Victor Mattiece will own the Herald.
1:58:24
Have you heard of the Pelican Brief?
We have a copy of it.

1:58:28
We also have a copy of a memo
sent by you to Sims Wakefield...

1:58:32
...in which you suggest your client's
position would be greatly improved...

1:58:37
...by the removal of Rosenberg
and Jensen from the court.

1:58:41
I noticed you waited till five.
1:58:44
An hour earlier, we could've
run to court, stopped this.

1:58:47
You deny you wrote the memo?
1:58:52
It's a fabrication.
1:58:55
You have no lawsuit, Mr. Velmano.
1:58:58
You know it.
