Liar Liar Page #3

Did you see that ?

- Look at what Dad got me !

- Whoa ! Great !

Hey, l have my glove

in the car.

Maybe we can stop at the park

on the way home and play catch.

Then tonight we can rub oil in it

and wrap a big rubber band around it.

lt'll be great.

Hey, great gift, Dad !

Thanks, son. l'm so glad my gift

could bring those two together.

My plan to phase myself out

is almost complete.

Something's come up,

and we need to talk.

Come on, Mom.

l want to go play !

And actually it's kind of important,

so maybe we could talk tonight ?

- Tonight ?

- Yes.

- Max's birthday party.

- Oh ! Yeah.

Sure. Of course.

We'll talk then. Great !

- Maximus ! l'm outta here.

- Bye, Dad.

Jerry, enjoy my wife.

- [ Chuckles Wickedly ]

- [ Engine Starts ]

Hmm.

Well, this is good.

This is really smart.

- Thank you.

- Only--

Well, it's not true.

Does that present a problem ?

Mrs. Cole,

the only problem here...

is that after you've provided years

of faithful service and loving support,

of raising his children--

they are his ?

Huh ? Oh. Yeah, yeah.

One for sure.

After all that, your husband

wants to deny you...

- a fair share of the assets based

on one act of indiscretion.

- Seven.

- Pardon me ?

- Seven single acts of indiscretion.

Seven acts of indiscretion,

only one of which he has

any evidence of...

and all of which he himself

is responsible for.

- He is ?

- Mrs. Cole.

You're the victim here.

The wife of a cold, distant workaholic.

Starved for affection, driven

into the arms of another man !

- Seven.

- Yeah, whatever !

You're not trying to deny him

what is rightfully his.

- All you're insisting on

is what is rightfully yours.

- Yeah.

And maybe a...

[ Puffs ] fraction more.

l think you're

bending over backwards.

Yeah. l did offer to

give him joint custody of the kids.

He is, after all,

a wonderful father.

And how does he repay you ?

By dragging you through

a painful litigation process !

No, no, no, no !

This can't happen !

With all due respect, this isn't

about you and Mr. Cole anymore.

This is about all women.

Where would Tina Turner be

right now if she'd rolled over and said,

"Hit me again, lke,

and put some stank on it ?"

Rollin' on the river,

that's where she'd be.

But she's beyond Thunderdome,

because she decided to send a message.

Wake up, sisters !

There's no-o-o-o-o-o...

such thing as a weaker sex !

[ Panting ]

You know what ?

You're right, Mr. Reede. l am

tired of getting kicked around !

Good for you !

Thank you.

l am so grateful...

to have an attorney

l can trust.

[ Gasps ]

Oh, you are good.

[ Laughs ]

You are very, very good.

The Cole case is worth

a truckload of money to this firm.
