peter? albert fox. yeah. you sound terrific. any pulse? ha. ha! i called the office, but * nobody seemed to know where you * were or even who you were. * anything i should know? * peter * nothing to know, i'm working at * home today, that's all. *
good, good, good. i got something * i want to talk to you about, peter. i think there's a hell of a story in it.
cute, aren't they?
and they weigh a ton. you want a drink? you look like you could use one.
a poor, innocent black kid, walking down the street, minding his own business. and boom! hit and run. there's a story in it for somebody, peter. the black community is up in arms. and i'm telling you, when reverend bacon gets a feather in his ass, the shit flies high.
i'm a lawyer, peter. i want to see justice done. that's all. and, of course, reverend bacon is a friend of mine. this would be good for him. and knowing a little about * your situation, i thought if you were the one to break the story.
your boss was at my house for dinner the other night. he said a few things.  fox and the assistant get into the limo. peter follows.
yes. i do. a little girl.
yes. i think she does. yes. why?
good. good. get in. they get into the limo.
i am here to join with the black community in expressing not only its grief but also its outrage. and, of course, whatever i can do to help mrs. lamb, i will do.
what kind of muckracking yellow journalist are you!? you print a story like this without so much as a by-your-leave to me or to reverend bacon here! who the hell do you think you are.
so what?! so what?! so what?! this is our case.
right here. you see? it's the hospital that's the guilty party.
a young man comes in here with a cerebral concussion and they treat him for a broken wrist. that is our case! that is the lawsuit that we are going to bring against this hospital. that is what we have been working toward all this time. and you are confusing the issue! do you understand me?!
sure you can. there's gonna be other stories, other exclusives. don't worry. we'll take care of you.
why certainly.
you've been woefully misrepresented here, mr. mccoy. i think you should give me a call.  sherman whacks fox with the sword and continues down the corridor with the judge.
