1:06:03
I see things...
1:06:05
and I, you know--
I sense... things...

1:06:09
that-- well, they
hadn't happened yet...

1:06:11
or they were happening
someplace else.

1:06:14
My granny told me that I--
I had a gift that runs in my family.

1:06:20
And she told me that
I shouldn't be afraid of it.

1:06:22
I should just always use my instinct
and I'd-- I'd be all right.

1:06:27
So, you're swearing
before this court...

1:06:29
that you didn't get your information
about this tragedy...

1:06:31
from any other means
than your special ability ?

1:06:34
- Your gift.
- Yes, sir.

1:06:37
I'm swearing that. Yes.
1:06:40
- Thank you, Mrs. Wilson.
- Yes, sir.

1:06:43
- I have no further questions.
- [Judge] Mr. Weems.

1:06:51
[Weems]
Mrs. Wilson.

1:06:56
How many fingers am I holding up
behind my back ?

1:06:59
- Objection, Your Honor.
- Your Honor,

1:07:01
my client is sitting in this
courtroom on trial for his life...

1:07:04
partly because of powers
that this woman claims to have.

1:07:07
Now, in all fairness, I believe
I should be given the opportunity...

1:07:10
to test
the alleged powers...

1:07:12
instead of having to stand here
and take her word for it.

1:07:15
You have a good point.
Objection overruled.

1:07:18
Can everyone in the jury box
see how many fingers I'm showing ?

1:07:28
How many fingers,
Mrs. Wilson ?

1:07:36
I don't know.
1:07:38
You don't know ?
1:07:43
Seven.
Seven fingers.

1:07:46
That-- That doesn't
prove anything.

1:07:49
Your Honor, I can't do this,
you know, at the drop of a hat.

1:07:52
Well, then, ma'am, how about doing
it at the drop of a dollar bill ?

1:07:57
What are you trying to say ?
1:07:59
I'm trying to say maybe this special
gift of yours doesn't work...
