a primitive cabin in the heart of
the forest. Well, I take a different view
:24:08
I see... a victim of abuse... and neglect...
:24:12
I see a mature woman who's
been robbed of half her life
:24:17
Her mother never gave her a choice.
Isn't Dr. Lovell doing the same thing?
:24:21
Hiding her away as his own
private pet in the woods?
:24:24
We all know what happens to
these freak cases, Your Honor
:24:27
They get a year of celebrity
:24:29
A starring role in
a few academic papers
:24:33
Then they get to spend the rest of
their lives in a state institution...
:24:36
abandoned... by the very doctors and
scientists who claimed to be helping them
:24:42
Nell has a home. She has a life.
She's not asking for any help
:24:47
So just be sure she needs care...
before she gets cared to death
:24:52
If she's ever gonna leave that cabin
:24:54
she's gonna need skills
she doesn't presently possess
:24:56
How do you know
she wants to leave the cabin?
:24:57
You think that's the best
life we can give her?
:25:00
I don't think her life is ours to give
:25:01
People can help each other, Dr. Lovell. We
don't have to do everything on our own
:25:04
Okay, I think I'm getting the picture
:25:07
Here's what I'm gonna do
:25:09
I'm gonna defer my decision
for three months
:25:12
This time to be used for the proposed
of observation and assessment
:25:16
And I hope that by the end of this period,
this court is better informed
:25:51
Hey
:25:52
You sure you can make it,
roughing it like this?
:25:56
I don't see an air conditioning unit
:25:59
You okay about breathing raw air?
