A Time to Kill Page #2

What'd you do that for?

The trial's in less than 3 hours.

Come on.

Noose'd give you a continuance.

The NAACP boys be down

here before lunch...

...drooling.

Max, let's go, boy! Come on!

Listen to me.

Your marriage is troubled,

you're about to have an affair.

Your career's in ruins, if you're lucky.

If not, you're dead.

Don't get me wrong.

What you've put into this case,

you've even inspired me...

...and I'm uninspirable.

Do everyone a favor, though.

Drop the case.

No, I can't.

I won't. I'm not going to quit.

I quit now, all this

is for nothing. No.

Max, come on now. Max,

where are you? Come on!

Max is dead, and you're next.

Walk away.

Max, come here.

Who's got the goods?

Pre-trial strategy at my

office in less than 2 hours...

...and I expect to see your ass there!

Free Carl Lee!

Free Carl Lee!

Free Carl Lee!

Fry Carl Lee!

Fry Carl Lee!

Fry Carl Lee!

Mr. Buckley...

...you may begin.

In those 23 years, Mrs. Cobb...

...how many children did he kidnap?

Objection, Your Honor!

Sustained.

You are out of order.

Withdraw the question.

The jury will disregard the last

question from Mr. Brigance.

In your son's 23 years...

...how many other children did he rape?

In my chambers.

Court will recess for lunch.

Why antagonize the judge? He should've

known Noose'd pull him into chambers.

He knew.

But he got to draw first blood,

and that's more important.

Come play on a winning team.

How's that impotence thing?

You're not being paid

for your work, are you?

No, sir.

Well, I guess Jake's

paying you in other ways.

Impotence.

Yes. Girls talk.

If you would, can you please

identify this weapon?

The weapon found at the scene.

You were able to identify the

fingerprints found on this gun?

Yes, the prints on the gun

matched those of Carl Lee Hailey.

You're sure?

I'd like to enter this into

Is it true that Pete Willard...
