:14:01
...and she's been fucking him
while he's out of town.
:14:04
So she's having intercourse...?
:14:06
With a midget.
:14:10
Very good.
:14:12
lt doesn't matter
who they know downtown.
:14:15
Tell them they got no leverage.
:14:17
-Mr. Chapin?
-Come in. Come in. All right.
:14:21
-Hi, l'm Dr. Ben Sobel.
-Hi. Thanks for coming in. l appreciate it.
:14:24
-My pleasure.
-So, what have we got?
:14:27
Okay....
:14:29
Based on his symptoms and his test results,
l would call it brief psychotic disorder...
:14:34
...and if it persists,
schizophreniform disorder.
:14:37
And Dr. Kassam, the psychiatrist
at Sing Sing, concurs with the diagnosis.
:14:41
-So he's crazy.
-Not crazy. No. At least not permanently.
:14:46
See, in certain people, prolonged exposure
to extremely stressful situations...
:14:51
...like soldiers in combat, for instance,
or disaster victims or hostages...
:14:56
...can produce a temporary
psychotic state.
:15:00
-How temporary?
-A day, a week, a month...
:15:03
...if the precipitating stresses are removed.
:15:07
Which means he's not gonna get better
as long as he's in the can.
:15:10
He could conceivably get worse.
:15:12
Right now he thinks
somebody is trying to kill him.
:15:15
And he could deteriorate to the point
where he's permanently schizophrenic.
:15:19
Then he's got a real problem. He goes
before the parole board in four weeks.
:15:23
Would they actually release him?
:15:25
Oh, yeah. l'm sure they'll want
to release a major Mafia figure...
:15:28
...who's now certifiably deranged
on top of it.
:15:31
Why don't they release him
to a halfway house...
:15:34
...or a center where he can get
the care he needs?
:15:36
Based on my earlier work with him,
l don't think he's dangerous...
:15:39
...and l think he's making
a strong effort to reform himself.
:15:45
Okay...
:15:47
...l'll tell you what l'm gonna do.
:15:50
l'm gonna release him
into your custody.
:15:53
Mine? Oh, no.
No, l couldn't-- No. No. No.
:15:57
Mr. Chapin, thank you, anyway,
but this is a very bad time for me.
