Can I go now?

You stay here

one more minute,

I'm going to start

charging you rent.

[beep]

If you keep me

another minute,

I start billing you

for my time.

Wouldn't surprise me.

[ring ring]

[ring ring]

Kirkpatrick.

Woman:
Is Kate McQuean

still there?

She's not here.

Do you know

where she went?

Why don't you try

the bottom of the ocean?

Oh, Maria,

I'll be with you soon, OK?

Oh, OK sure.

Good morning, Lisa.

How are you?

You made

some friends today?

Yeah.

Good.

Messages?

Hollenbach's waiting

in your office.

Thanks.

Welcome.

It's about time.

I had to cancel my lunch

with Donny Trump.

Sorry. I got hung up

at police headquarters

For almost 2 hours.

Why don't you do

what I do?

Plead the fifth,

You're out of there

in 5 minutes.

Thanks for the tip.

No charge.

Counselor, why are

we confining ourselves

To this

very stuffy office

When we could be

at the beach

Frolicking

in our bikinis,

Or in your case,

a thong?

I believe we wrapped up

the Juantorena case

A fortnight ago.

Well, it just

got unwrapped...

Last week...

When I learned that

you helped your client

Hide some

community property

That I can claim

for my client.

I have no idea what

you're referring to.

I'm talking about

the aspen ski house you hid

With your

client's brother...

And the coral gables condo

you hid with his sister...

And the plane you hid

with his mother.

Counselor, there

is no ski house,

There is no condo,

And his mother

borrowed the plane.

His mother's senile.

That's it.

She forgot

to come back.

Counselor,

these charges

Are scurrilous

and baseless,

And may I say

between us,

Tete--tete,

That this would take

A minimum of 2 years

to prove,

And he would

transfer title

To new relatives.

As far as this humble

counselor's concerned,

The most I would receive

Is a $200 slap

on the wrist.

You're right.

I'm not going

to waste our time

Dragging us

into family court.

Yeah, that's...

Ridiculous.

But, uh,

maritime court?

Federal maritime court?

That's another story.

Maritime court?

Doesn't that have

something to do

With cruise ships,

right?

Actually, it has to do

with all ships...

Like this one.

Never heard

of the Tortuga.

I didn't say the name.

Lucky guess?

Listen, Hollenbach,

the law of the sea

Is simple--and federal.

I don't care if you hid

the registry of this vessel

In Panama or Podunk.

I want the title signed over

to my client in 48 hours,

Or you're gonna end up

in a federal prison so deep

That by the time

you get out,

You're gonna need a walker

to chase ambulances.

Are we clear?

You know, counselor...

You're very unattractive

when you're threatening.
