- What can we talk about ?

You're subject to Chinese Iaw. You can

discuss the case only with your Iawyer.

Call Joe Shapiro in Washington.

Mr Moore, non-Chinese Iawyers

aren't allowed to practise here.

The few Chinese Iawyers who could

handle a case Iike this won't touch it.

The Procuracy will appoint

a defence advocate for you.

We'll get you bail, Jack.

There again, I should warn you,

it's very rare.

It's called a guarantee, and it's very rare.

Ed, I'm sure it's very rare,

but I would assume the Ambassador...

He's in Shanghai.

I assume that he could, even from

Shanghai, make a few phone calls.

- Use his influence.

- Absolutely. He'll do everything he can.

An ambassador juggles crises

in order to push the envelope for many.

Ed, we're really gonna be pushing

that envelope.

Get me a copy of the criminal code,

in English.

I can certainly try, Mr Moore.

Thanks, Ed.

Sir !

What is he saying ? Who is he ?

This is General Hong.

You kill Hong Ling,

his daughter.

You tell him that I did not kill her.

Go on, tell him.

I understand...

I understand your grief. I understand

your pain, that comes from Iosing a child.

But I did not kill her !

What did he say ?

He said he will see you dead.

I'll say it again.

It can be more easy

if you confess your crime.

Jack Peter Moore,

you are charged with homicide and rape

with aggravating circumstances.

Does any participant

challenge the composition of the court ?

No challenge.

Does the defence aide challenge

the composition of the court ?

Huh ?

Does the defence aide challenge...

I'm sorry, can you speak a Iittle Iouder ?

Do you challenge the composition

of this court, sir ?

No challenge, Presiding Chairman.

Advocate Shen Yuelin.

Excuse me. I was at the Ministry

of Justice, preparing for this case.

You're excused, Advocate.

Accused Moore, do you understand

the charges against you ?

What I understand is

I have never met my attorney before.

Presiding Chairman...

Wait a minute. I've Iost the sound.

I can't hear anything.

What is she saying ?

I've Iost the sound. I can't hear anything.

I can't... This is very important that I...

Can you hear me now, Accused Moore ?

Can you hear me now ?

Yes, I hear. I would Iike my attorney I have

never met to repeat what she has said.

I told Chairman Xu

I was assigned this case only today.

- But I'm familiar with the facts...

- Familiar ?! You never spoke with me !

You must address the court

in the proper manner.

I'm sorry.

What is the proper manner, Your Honour ?

Accused Moore, please be seated now.

Advocate Shen Yuelin, what does

the accused plead to these charges ?

The accused pleads guilty.

The hell I do !
