Look at that. When's the trial?

I go to court tomorrow. | I got a public defender...

and I ain't got much confidence | in that dude.

I'm just an innocent bystander. | What do you know.

- I'll see what I can do. | - I appreciate that.

You've been a nice fellow to me. | There ain't nobody better than you. Really.

Really and truly, you know.

Come here, fella! Step over here.

Let me show you. | Look at that lady with a snake.

You've never seen nothing like that.

Want something to drink?

- What's your name? | - Lee.

Lee? That's a good Southern name.

You want to go someplace?

Listen, Lee, | my apartment's only a couple of blocks...

Okay.

...you're chilling your ass, taking a break...

and there's a cocksucker | in Phoenix, Arizona, who owns a theater...

jams a fist in your ass. | I can't even get your ass up...

to f***ing pick it up! | You say that this is worse here.

You'd better familiarize yourself | with the f***ing code.

I'm gonna take your pictures. | Come on in here, Brandy.

I mean it. Get your ass up!

Get you ass off the chair!

- What's this? | - An aikido studio.

Take off your shoes.

First lesson:
Always be prepared.

Jesus! You've got | one wacky sense of humor.

All right.

Sh*t! Hold on a second.

Fight back. Hit me.

I'm a lawyer. I think you ought to know that.

There's no lesson if you don't fight back.

I'm not in the habit of fighting with girls.

If this is your idea of foreplay...

Losing is inevitable.

Be patient.

- Hey, Lieutenant. | - Where you at?

- And let's get this thing enforced. | - All right.

Okay? Got to go. Bye.

Cray?

Natalie, I was just coming to see you.

- What happened to you? | - I'm a little sore today. I'm fine.

- You look like you were hit by a bus. | - That's wishful thinking.

I want to ask you something. | Come on, limp with me.

I'm not asking you for a date. Come on.

Wait. Slow down.

So how's your life?

Spectacular.

- You're seeing anybody? | - Legions.

No!

What are you doing for fun?

If you don't mind, let's skip to the part | where you tell me what you want.

I need access to some sealed documents.

The civil suit against my family, | the Oxytech case.

That was federal.

All I know is what I read in the paper, | and that was three years ago.

Still, a file's a file, right?

What do you want to know?

I'd like to know why my father killed himself.

Forgive me for saying...

but you didn't seem so interested | at the time.

I was drunk at the time.

I suppose I can make some inquiries.

I'd appreciate it.

Maybe we could have dinner sometime.

You just keep your mind | on your work, mister.

You look beautiful.

Jesus!

Two-color. | Get the receipt copy or send it back.
