Them folks at the bank, they
won't lend me money on my house.
:37:04
Why? The house is almost paid for.
You borrowed on it before Lester's trial.
:37:08
Say I wasn't in jail then. Say to Gwen,
how will I pay if I'm on death row?
:37:13
And I lost my job at the mill.
:37:16
They called Gwen.
:37:17
Worked 20 years, I'm out
5 days and they fired me.
:37:23
Carl Lee...
:37:25
...l can't try a capital
murder case for $900.
:37:29
I need to live.
:37:30
Me too, Jake.
:37:32
I need to live too.
:37:43
Nice night.
:37:51
Finder of precedents, mystery
woman of the courthouse....
:37:55
Care for a beer?
:38:00
I assume that's the infamous
change of venue motion.
:38:05
Ellen Roark. R-O-A-R-K.
:38:07
That's Roark in Boston, but it
seems to be Row-ark in Mississippi.
:38:10
Boston.
:38:11
I was born there. My father's
the notorious Sheldon Roark.
:38:15
Attorney to the stars, yes.
:38:17
Duly impressed.
:38:19
What brings you to Mississippi?
Slumming?
:38:22
No, law school at Old Miss.
:38:24
It's a family tradition.
:38:26
Mom was a sweet little sorority
girl there till Dad married her.
:38:31
I married a sweet little sorority
girl from Ol' Miss myself.
:38:34
They have an excellent selection.
:38:37
They do.
:38:38
No, really, what brings you to Canton?
They have cars to sit on on campus.
:38:42
Carl Lee Hailey.
:38:46
I'd like to help you.
:38:49
What makes you think I need help?
:38:51
You're trying one of the largest
murder cases these parts have seen...
:38:55
...and you work alone.
:38:56
You have no paralegals,
clerks, researchers...
