Do you believe in Jesus?
Do you have any plans to leave the city?
Do you think any one of those people rolled out of bed...
Do you think if I'd gotten physical with old Bobby Earl...
Do you want to see what those fuckers did to me?
Does he?
Does that make you feel better?
Doing her was like carving up...
Dollar fifty. That's two bits shy a car wash.
Don't fuck with me, Armstrong. Sullivan is dead.
Don't know how to access information?
Don't lecture me about confessions, not after the way you got Bobby Earl's.

He couldn't stand to see me free, living the good life, so I killed the fucker.
He drives on and never gives it another thought.
He ended up in the hospital.
He needs a lawyer...
He paid dearly with everything else that happened to him.
He pushed her body in the water down here...
He said to me, "Go up to Cambridge, Massachusetts.
He said what I read.
He said when he came up on the car, he found Bobby Earl on top of her...
He said, if you turn me down...
He sat there, day after day, looking guilty as hell.
He says, "But, sir, I didn't do it. "
He stops, takes a siesta under a banyan tree just outside a schoolyard.
He was a very angry boy, that Bobby Earl.
He was in for dealing.
He was just leaving.
He'll be back in a few minutes. Would you care for some iced tea?
He's a black kid. Went to Cornell.
He's all yours.
He's black?
He's out there somewhere. Get Katie out of here. Hurry, quick.
He's out there. I don't know if he's gonna come back.
He's real mean.
Heh. I hope you took out that insurance option.
Heh. Oh.
Heh. Trying to get you some information.
Hell, Armstrong, you're starting to get all frantic and excited, just like Bobby Earl did.
Hell, I got less time than it takes to play a round of golf.
Hell, the rain's doing half the work for you.
Hell, you might not even wanna paint this over.
Hello, hello. Hello.

How did they smell?
How did they smell?
How did this testimony survive cross examination?
How did you explain the eye?
How long will that take?
How many times did she have dinner in this house, sleep over with your daughter?
How sweet the sound
How was your life different after that, if the case was thrown out?
How would I feel? Heh.
How?
How'd you get this number?
Hurry up.
Hurry.
I ain't gonna tell you if killed that little girl or not.
I ain't staying nowhere.
I beat on him with a rubber hose?
I brought him the news.
I came back with nothing, he threw the case out.
I can dig around the back and see what else I can find.
I can get there by myself.
I can hear him, professor, I can hear him every night.
I can tell.
I can touch anyone I want to!
I checked it with the duty sergeant.
I did. I told you when I met you.
I didn't do it.
I didn't know if it would influence you.
I didn't wanna go out without a fight...
I don't follow you.
I don't know this girl.
I don't think so. You gotta take better care of your stuff.
I don't understand exactly what kind of hidden agenda...
I don't wanna see that happen.
I done killed so many goddamn people...
I find that a naive statement, counselor.
I gave Bobby Earl life...
I get a free ride, they get a better image.
I go to bed with this every night. Her waving.
I gotta call Mom and Dad.
I graduated first in my high school class.
I had some unfinished business out there.
I hate pretty motherfuckers like you.
I have a confession from Sullivan on tape and it is evidence.
I have no reason to lie to you. I don't know this girl.
I just wanted to show the good old boys how good I was.
I just wanted you to know what a real...
I know I wouldn't.
I know my job, Mr. Armstrong.
I know.
I know. I'm sorry.
I love you too.
I loved Joanie Shriver like she was my own.
I mean, maybe this one is worth checking out.
I miss her.
I never had the pleasure of making that sweet little girl's acquaintance.
I once was lost
I paid for it dearly. I've lost half my business because I defended that son of a bitch.
I remember how we used to talk about opening up a pet shop together.
I said, "You'll have to plead guilty, take a 25 year hit.
I see your Monarch...
I submit to you, the issue is revenge.
I tell you something else.
I thought you might be interested in recovering the knife.
I told you I had power.
I tried telling them there ain't no formula for people like me.
I tried, sir. Truly, I tried.
I want to ask you...
I want to see Robert Earl go to the chair for what he did.
I want you to call on them.
I want you to make it right for him.
I want you to say goodbye for me.
I want you to stay on his tail. Don't jump that rabbit until I give you the green light.
I was high school valedictorian.
I was hot for it. Thought I had the case locked tight.
I was solid to myself when I said it.
I was starting to think to myself, "Maybe the man is onto something. Maybe. "
I was working in juvenile detention center this morning with this kid, Carlos.
I wish you had been as vivid describing the victims.
I would like I would like to propose a toast.
I would've confessed to anything and they just spoon fed me to the row.
I'd been plea bargaining everything that came across my desk for six months.
I'd say six inches from hilt to tip.
I'd sooner go to hell than into another courtroom.
I'll see you in Washington.
I'm a graduate of Florida State myself.
I'm afraid, in fact, I'm gonna have to leave now.
I'm gonna be all over you like white on rice, boy. You hear?
I'm gonna tell you something, worst thing in that courtroom was Bobby Earl himself.
I'm happy for both of us.
I'm impressed.
I'm innocent. I'm innocent.
I'm just trying to get some information.
I'm no friend of capital punishment...
I'm only trying to get at what happened.
I'm saving Katie for dessert.
I'm sitting at the Sullivan house and I wanna tell you...
I'm sorry, I can't.
I'm sorry, there's no answer.
I'm sure you're lying, cocksucker! No!
I'm thinking about going to the University of Virginia.
I've been thinking about you all day today, sweetheart.
I've got all your numbers.
I've read it.
Idle hands are the devil's workshop.
If there was no semen, how did you establish the O positive blood?
If you're unable to buzz, don't worry about it.
Imagine...
In closing, professor...
Is something wrong with your hands all of a sudden?
Is that what you teach your law students up there? "The truth will prevail"?
It ain't over yet! You got the trials of Job ahead of you!
It ain't over yet! You got to
It is safer.
It seemed like the car to me.
It was just a ride. In fact, she asked me for that ride.
It's a funny thing about small town Florida people, professor.
It's a surprise.
It's been 25 years.
It's been a big week for you.
It's been a long time. Ha, ha.
It's called affirmative action.
It's good for the soul.
It's kind of a nighttime thing.
It's like a base camp for gator hunters.
It's like a death sentence on top of a death sentence.
It's like he just went stone crazy.
It's not a bad paper as papers go...
It's not a popularity contest.
It's not you I've been waiting for and thinking about the last eight years.
It's signed, "Your friend Blair Sullivan. "
It's the same way Tanny Brown felt justified looking for me when
It's very good.
Joined Jackson, Boll & Manheim, 1970. 1980 to the present...

Late April, early May.
Later, I found out that they beat him real bad that night.
Laurie Prentiss, assistant DA.
Laurie! Laurie!
Laurie.
Least we'll be able to sleep at night.
Leave him be, you cracker son of a bitch!
Let me ask you, your autopsy report states that the girl was ****d.
Let me tell you a few things, Armstrong. One, I am filled with power.
Let me tell you what a scholarship is for someone like me.
Let them go. You have me now.
Let's see if we can get you some information.
Let's shake up that cage a little bit, son!

Looks like you got a busy afternoon lined up, Mr. Armstrong.
Made to piss myself, kicked.

Man, Sullivan must have bust a gut the minute he seen you coming.
Many thanks for your time.

Oh, I will. No doubt about that.
Oh, I'd love to, but I can't. I made other plans.
Oh, it's not you that I want, professor. Is it, Laurie?
Oh, shit.
Oh, that depends, sweetheart. You'll be amazed at what I can do with a little help.
Oh, um...
Oh, what the hell is he doing now?

Ohh...
Okay, I'll do it for you.
Okay.
Okay. Why not? Okay.
On, no, I left him. Angus.
Once, twice or what?
One tries to climb out and the others hop on his back and pull him back down.
One, two, three, four, five.
Or that piece of chicken you got on the side, "Here's $300, get it taken care of. "
Otherwise, we'd have seen stab wounds on her hands...
Over a hundred years of progress.
Over the years, other witnesses to electrocutions...
Painting and writing letters to the families of his victims...
Parts of her chest and abdomen were so badly damaged...
Pathetic.
Paul needs to see what you've got on the Joanie Shriver murder trial.
Paul, all I'm saying is that...
Paul, did you really read this?
Paul, how did the debate go?
Paul.

Punch it! Punch it! Bitch, you better drive! Punch it!
Raise your arms, please.
Really onto something.
Really?
Really?
Right like that there.
Right there in the Glades.
Robert Earl made this right here...
Same as Peter did to Jesus before the cock crowed.
Scared me to death.
Scared you to death?

Sergeant Rogers?
She take care of my kids, man. They don't let me make phone calls.
She walked back...
She walked past the car, then turned...
She was the prosecutor on Robert Earl's kidnap trial in Dade. Ring any bells?
She'd have wanted to go that way, but he took her this way.
She's a pretty thing.
She's just a little girl.
She's known around here as a very fine physician.
She's something else, coming up on that bus like that.
Shut up!
Shut up!
Sick in bed
Sick in bed
Side.
Sir, it's no game. It's...
Sit your ass down.
Small town police don't do their homework?

So the cuts on his hand could have been from the beating. No?
So, what do you want to talk to an old bad guy like me for?
Some people to see, yes.
Something important.
Something interesting. Real important.
Son of a bitch admits they were high school sweethearts.
Sorry, J.T.
Sorry, sir, no messages.
Souls of Black Folk, Du Bois.
Speak into the microphone, Robert Earl.
Spoke on the phone about hooking up with Tanny Brown?
Starting to get the picture, huh?
Starting to see it with Joanie Shriver's eyes?
Stayed right frosty to the end.
Step down here, please, will you?
Stop it!
Stop touching her.
Strange fruit, indeed.
Suddenly he opened his eyes and began gasping for air...
Sullivan...
Sure you know the governor signed my death warrant.
Sweet Jesus.
Take a ride.
Talk to me, Bobby Earl.
Talk to me.
Talk to who?
Talking about the Bible. Ha ha ha.
Tanny Brown had nothing to do with your arrest in Dade County.
Tanny Brown.
Tanny said he'd hook up with you this afternoon if you're still around.
Tanny.
Tape recorder.
Telephone for you, Daddy.
Tell me about my folks. That was the deal.
Tell me about your confession.

That day it was about 10 after 3.
That is Look, I got an office.
That is what you've came down here for, isn't it?
That jury is not gonna disregard the boy's own words.
That saved a wretch like me
That very bad man moves on down the line.
That was bullshit.
That was bullshit. I took some white girl for a ride in my car.
That was close. Paul. Paul.
That way we won't jeopardize my legal position.
That white judge, he was 87 years old.
That you might not take the case and you might not help this kid.
That's a culvert. They run under the roads. Keep them from washing away.
That's a tree, no?
That's all the justification they needed.
That's good. That's very good.
That's hers.
That's Joanie and me.
That's Laurie's car. I think Bobby Earl has them.
That's murder one.
That's right.
That's the lot?
That's the real world?
That's the row. Death row.
That's three lies.
That's what put me on the row and eight years later, that's what made me free.
The car was parked under that tree?
The charge was kidnapping.
The cuts were...
The end.
The firm's been much more successful...
The Gideons love us.
The guy started out with his landlady in New Orleans...
The knife. So now all of a sudden, you're Sherlock Holmes, huh?
The maid wouldn't take Angus, would she?
The man's an idiot.
The nature of the wounds curved upward.
The old girl said you was gonna be coming up in here.
The police? No, they didn't. They just showed me a photo.
The sin is pride.
The trials of Job!
The trials of Job! The sin is pride, you motherfucker...
The warden and all present completely lost their wits...
Then he just started spitting it out, like a goddamn machine.
Then he spots a little girl.
Then he starts laughing.
Then how did I know where to look for it?
There a 2 a. m. bus leaving for Princeton from the Trailways station.
There been so many.
There isn't a day that goes by that I still don't talk to her.
There you go.
There you go.
There's no one beyond my reach! You hear me? No one!
These give me nightmares. I never let them out. Can't even read them.
They all disappear
They called it "The Pilgrimage of Death. " He sold a lot of papers.
They come through here. He was probably carrying her.
They don't like me very much.
They have a great school and my mom lives in Newport News.
They said they forgive you and they'll remember you in their prayers.
They said they forgive you and will remember you in their prayers.
They told us at the coroner's office...
They took away my scholarship.
They were people who suffered far more cruel and unusual punishment...
They're almost identical.
They're going against the traffic.
Things worked out kind of perfect for you, didn't it?
This is a case that hangs together by the thinnest of threads.
This is the kill spot here.
Three cars.
To innocence revealed.
To the left! I'll kill her!
To the triumph of truth over appearance.
Two seconds into the cross examination...
Uh, tape recorder. May I?
Under the circumstances, that's not possible.
Used to see him hanging around the school when I'd pick up my girls.
Usual rap sheet: misdemeanors, history of drug use.
Very much the same as yourself.
Very simple: We don't.
Wait. Wait. Wait a minute.
Want you to meet Joanie Shriver, Mr. Armstrong.
Wanted to know about my childhood.
Was before she married you.
Was blind
Watch your back in here.
We always have a teacher out here at 3:00...
We figure he knocked her out cold in that car...
We need a Ford Granada.
We played you like a tune!
We played you like a tune!
We played you like a tune! It ain't over yet!
We played you like a tune! It ain't over yet!
We think that's where he popped her.
We thought that might do the trick.
We?
We'll see.
We're gonna have ourselves a little ride.
Welcome to the party, professor. Unh!
Welcome.
Well, don't my lies tell you as much about me as my truths?
Well, everyone knows you're the guy my father was complaining about.
Well, fair enough.
Well, give me all the details. Spare me nothing. Come on.
Well, good for you.
Well, I didn't need to, once he confessed.
Well, I'm in better shape than you are.
Well, I've always been that climb out crab.
Well, I've just about run out of patience with you, Armstrong.
Well, if you have time later, thank you.
Well, it's a long story.
Well, lookie here.
Well, take a look around you.
Well, thank you very much.
Well, thank you. I'll, uh I'll read it and get back to you.
Well, that far away?
Well, there wasn't any.
Well, you're wrong.
Well...
Were it not for Libby, I could well be photo op number four.
Weren't any defensive wounds on her hands.
What about messages? Did she leave anything for me?
What about you? Are you going to be okay?
What am I doing after the party? I have an appointment.
What are you talking about?
What color is that car?
What did old Bobby Earl tell you?
What did you hear?
What did you say to her? How'd you get her in the car?
What do we gotta do to get rid of you, Mr. Armstrong?
What do you think, professor?
What happened there?
What run ins?
What the fuck was all that nonsense about?
What the hell's going on up there?
What was Sullivan driving?
What we're dealing with here is just a predisposition for an appetite.
What you think, man?
What's that on your face?
What's this?
What's your game?
When did the police show you the car for identification?
When it came out the arresting cracker happened to be a boyfriend...
When's the last time you tried a case?
Where can I drive you? Where are you staying?
Where is it?
Where the hell is Wilcox?
Where will you reside?
Where's your mommy?
White pages or yellow pages?
Who is he?
Who'd believe us? We're just psychopaths.
Whoa!
Why are you doing this? He saved your life.
Why didn't you tell me about your run ins?
Why don't you check it out? Everglade County was your neck of woods.
Why don't you go back to being a lawyer?
Why is every fucking thing the real world except teaching? Hmm?
Why the hell didn't you tell me?
Why won't you talk to me?
Why? Because he lost a scholarship and spent an extra night in prison?
Winterglade.
Witnesses describe a blue flame playing about the base of the spine.
Would you do me a favor? Mail this for me.
Yeah, for who? Me or the bad guys?
Yeah, he's a pretty son of a bitch, Robert Earl, but he's mean.
Yeah, I bet Mr. Victim forgot to tell you about that.
Yeah, I'd expect he would be holding it together.
Yeah, this is Wilcox. I need a tech team down at Ferguson's place.
Yeah, we got a whole other theme park for Mr. Sullivan.
Yeah, we got that from the teeth and gums.
Yeah, well, then an hour later, I'm standing in front of the judge...
Yeah, you really had me going.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. But miniature.
Yeah. Go to hell.
Yeah. I'm fine.
Yes, she's a very determined lady. But why did you send her up to see me?
Yes, sir. See, this is the new South.
Yes!
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes. Go on.
Yes. Was.
Yes. Yes, I do.
You afraid to die?
You all right there, Armstrong?
You been talking to my old neighbor, Bobby Earl. Excitable boy.
You best run, Armstrong.
You boys wanna take a break?
You can't miss it if you can just read the signs.
You come down here, you start picking at them threads, it's liable to fall apart.
You didn't take it out? Point it at Bobby Earl?
You do that for me and I'll tell you who "we" is.
You ever been here before?
You feel much better now, don't you?
You got ice in your eyes.
You got no right interrogating my children.
You got the trials of Job ahead of you!
You got the trials of Job ahead, mister! The trials of Job! The sin is pride...
You got to take Jesus into your heart right away, because you never know.
You have a nice day now.
You have quite an art gallery back there.
You inhuman bastard! You cannot cheat me of this!
You just narrowed it down to about 40 million suspects.
You know, good parents, bad parents...
You know, I think this would be really good for you.
You know, I'm gonna study law too.
You know, it was incredible.
You know, there's a couple hundred of them here, if you want to keep looking.
You may think I'm an impotent prisoner, handcuffed...
You might wanna fasten your seat belt now.
You ought to stay on a few days and we'll make it a real vacation.
You paint a grim picture indeed, professor.
You should be ashamed of yourself, lying to a condemned man.
You should see your face, Armstrong. Ha, ha.
You should've been a detective.
You should've told me the night you read the letter.
You smack dab in the middle of hell.
You take a look around you, Mr. Armstrong. You take a look at where you are.
You tell me that man never laid a hand on Bobby Earl Ferguson in 22 hours?
You wanna make your point?
You want my money, you best start throwing some elbow into that, boy.
You want something here? What you come around here for?
You watch carefully.
You wouldn't have known when they brought her in.
You, little lady, had me held for just one night...
You, uh ? You looking for this?
You'll have some life left when you come out. "
You're a desperate man, Armstrong.
You're a real hard case, Armstrong. You know that?
You're back. Let's get started.
You're fishing, Armstrong. There's nothing out here.
You're fishing.
You're not getting that meat tenderized enough?
You're obviously not.
You're tearing open a wound, coming here. You know that?
You're the only one for me And I'm proud
Youngest assistant DA, 1960 69.
Your first time, Mr. Armstrong?
Your wife, slick.
13 Tula Way.

... why didn't you challenge it? Yes.
"Did the deed"? You know what I'm talking about.
A photo? Mm hm.
A ride. Please?
Aah! No! Paul! Easy!
All right? I'm impressed.
All stolen. What was he driving when he hit Florida?
and the messenger is revenge!
And then I'm gonna disappear. No.
at which point you drove her to an isolated section of the Everglades...
Bobby Earl, the cultured pearl. What's up, Gomer?
Bobby Earl. Bobby Earl.
But she dropped her case against you. Not soon enough.
But why me? You were Bobby Earl's con.
Can I see it? Mm.

Come far? Ochopee, Florida.
Come on, man. Got you.

Daddy? Katie.
Damn it, that man is an asshole! J.T., just calm the hell down.
Did I get the laundry? Yeah, I think so.
Did you? You're the visitor I've had in two years...
Do you have a Bible here? That's one thing we got plenty of.
Does Tanny Brown live here? He's at a soccer practice with my brother.

From what angle? Angle?

He did it, goddamn it! Whoa! Come on, J.T. Leave him alone.
He had his reasons. Reasons?
He slapped him once or twice. Which was it?
He's a good man. But he said to come to you first.

Uh, I'd like to thank Your attorney.
We already gave the key back. But we can't just leave him.
We had a confession. If that's a confession...
What about it? Sullivan said we have to read the signs.
What fucking news? That his parents were still alive and well.
What now? Look at this: one, one, one.
What signs? "Seek, and ye shall find. "
What was that? Well, that's the local wildlife.
