1. the people are representedCopy !req
2. by two separate
yet equally important groups:Copy !req
3. the police,
who investigate crimeCopy !req
4. and the district attorneys,
who prosecute the offenders.Copy !req
5. These are their stories.Copy !req
6. I am telling you,
it was a sign.Copy !req
7. Someone you knew
15 years ago
calling from Ill...Copy !req
8. Have a good night, Rudy.Copy !req
9. You, too.Copy !req
10. The fact that she calls
right when I'm decidingCopy !req
11. whether to take
the job in Chicago—Copy !req
12. what do you call that?Copy !req
13. A coincidence.Copy !req
14. Yeah, sure,
why not?Copy !req
15. Uproot
your whole lifeCopy !req
16. because a virtual stranger
calls from out of the blue.Copy !req
17. Sue me.Copy !req
18. I don't believe
in chance.Copy !req
19. She was trying
to raise money.Copy !req
20. She called everyone
in the alumni directory.Copy !req
21. It's only a
two-hour flight.Copy !req
22. Ah...Copy !req
23. I can be back
every weekend.Copy !req
24. Besides, you know what
they say about absence.Copy !req
25. I'm more concerned
with what they say
about abstinence.Copy !req
26. Come here.Copy !req
27. Mmm. And who knows?Copy !req
28. We may find ourselves
joining the Mile High Club.Copy !req
29. Where are you going?Copy !req
30. What are you doing?Copy !req
31. It's a beautiful
night.Copy !req
32. It's cold on the roof.Copy !req
33. Not when we get up there.Copy !req
34. Mmm.Copy !req
35. What in hell is...?Copy !req
36. Oh, no!Copy !req
37. God!Copy !req
38. They usually pass out
from the painCopy !req
39. before they die
of inhalation.Copy !req
40. Thank God for small favors.Copy !req
41. Victim's Asian femaleCopy !req
42. I'd say, uh, late
teens, early 20s.Copy !req
43. Why does it smell
like happy hour up here?Copy !req
44. The nose knows.Copy !req
45. Accelerant—
eight-year-old.Copy !req
46. Why not use the good stuff?Copy !req
47. Which one of you
actually lives here?Copy !req
48. That would be me— 1403.Copy !req
49. It looked to me like
you missed your floor.Copy !req
50. We were going to the roof.Copy !req
51. Stargazing.Copy !req
52. Right.Copy !req
53. The only way to
get to the roofCopy !req
54. is the stairwell
on that floor.Copy !req
55. I don't know.Copy !req
56. Carrying signs
and shoutingCopy !req
57. seems a better way
to make a political statement.Copy !req
58. Excuse me?Copy !req
59. That apartment— Penthouse One.Copy !req
60. The Deputy Consul General
from China lives there.Copy !req
61. You still don't notice
anything weird?Copy !req
62. Other than lighting
herself on fire?Copy !req
63. One shoe.Copy !req
64. The girl's only
got one shoe.Copy !req
65. Any ID?Copy !req
66. Could be CinderellaCopy !req
67. lost her slipper
on the way back from the ball.Copy !req
68. Or a cane.Copy !req
69. Looks like Ace bandage.Copy !req
70. We may have justCopy !req
71. gone international on this one.Copy !req
72. Chinese bigwig
lives in Penthouse One.Copy !req
73. So, who lives
in Penthouse Two?Copy !req
74. That one's for sale.Copy !req
75. I guess
the price just dropped.Copy !req
76. On both apartments.Copy !req
77. Captioning sponsored by
UNIVERSAL NETWORK TELEVISIONCopy !req
78. I'm sorry.Copy !req
79. I have a weak stomach
for this sort of thing.Copy !req
80. Most people do.Copy !req
81. They're crazy, you know.Copy !req
82. Who, exactly, are we
talking about, sir?Copy !req
83. These Falun Gong people.Copy !req
84. I'm sorry?Copy !req
85. Falun Gong.Copy !req
86. They are heretical cult.Copy !req
87. My government has banned themCopy !req
88. saving a lot of
innocent victimsCopy !req
89. from being unwittingly
brainwashed.Copy !req
90. Into committing
suicide?Copy !req
91. They hook their followers first
by convincing themCopy !req
92. it's a good way
to stay physically fit—Copy !req
93. breathing exercises,
things like that.Copy !req
94. And then they graduate
to self-immolation?Copy !req
95. Sometimes.Copy !req
96. A group did this
in Tienanmen Square last year.Copy !req
97. And their leader
thinks he can fly.Copy !req
98. I don't know
how many of his followersCopy !req
99. have jumped off buildings.Copy !req
100. Are these those guys
on 12th Avenue?Copy !req
101. That's where
our consulate is.Copy !req
102. They just stare.Copy !req
103. They never say a word.Copy !req
104. In English, Yuen.Copy !req
105. My driver.Copy !req
106. Doorman says trouble.Copy !req
107. Maybe you want to go
to hotel.Copy !req
108. No, I'll be fine here.Copy !req
109. Unless...Copy !req
110. No, you're okay.Copy !req
111. Thank you.Copy !req
112. Does he live here?Copy !req
113. No, he's more likeCopy !req
114. a personal assistant.Copy !req
115. Do you have any idea
who the dead girl is?Copy !req
116. Actually,
we were hopingCopy !req
117. that you knew.Copy !req
118. Well, obviouslyCopy !req
119. her aim was
to embarrass my government.Copy !req
120. How terrible for her family,
to lose a child to a cult.Copy !req
121. Nobody gets by me.Copy !req
122. That's why I get
7:00 to midnight.Copy !req
123. And that's
the busy time?Copy !req
124. People coming home
from the officeCopy !req
125. people going out for their
evening's entertainment...Copy !req
126. And you see
everybody?Copy !req
127. That's right.Copy !req
128. Okay, so, did anybody
visit Mr. Chen tonight?Copy !req
129. That would
have been tough.Copy !req
130. He left before I came on,
and you saw when he got back.Copy !req
131. You know, I, uh, thought
about joining the forceCopy !req
132. but the old lady, she worries.Copy !req
133. That's too bad, man.Copy !req
134. So, any of the residents
have guests tonight?Copy !req
135. The Carlsons in 301
had the piano tuner.Copy !req
136. He left at... 8:15.Copy !req
137. That's about it.Copy !req
138. And this is the
only entranceCopy !req
139. into the building?Copy !req
140. Yeah, there's
a garage entranceCopy !req
141. around the corner,
but you got to get by Hank.Copy !req
142. Oh. Hank's pretty good too, huh?Copy !req
143. You'll see.Copy !req
144. I heard it was suicide.Copy !req
145. It's a homicideCopy !req
146. until our medical examiner
tells us otherwise.Copy !req
147. I didn't see no Oriental broads
come in this way.Copy !req
148. I believe they're called
"Asian women," bro.Copy !req
149. Like, we don't have
enough Hebrews in the building.Copy !req
150. Now they sell to the Red Army?Copy !req
151. If anybody tried to
get in here that I
didn't know, I'd know.Copy !req
152. What if they
were in the back seatCopy !req
153. of something like that?Copy !req
154. That's Mrs. Schumacher.Copy !req
155. She hasn't had a guest
in two years.Copy !req
156. She don't drive that thing
herself, does she?Copy !req
157. She couldn't reach the pedals.Copy !req
158. She's got Wong.Copy !req
159. Nice guy for a...Copy !req
160. Chauffeur?Copy !req
161. Exactly.Copy !req
162. What time
did he drop the car off?Copy !req
163. I'd say about 8:00.Copy !req
164. You happen to knowCopy !req
165. where Mr. Wong lives?Copy !req
166. Yeah, the ChinatownCopy !req
167. OTB.Copy !req
168. He bets every race
at every track in the world.Copy !req
169. Oh, you mean those
weirdos over on
the West Side.Copy !req
170. Mm-hmm, that's them.Copy !req
171. They're against something.Copy !req
172. I'm just not sure
what it is.Copy !req
173. Well, at least they
don't ask for moneyCopy !req
174. or bang on your door at 6:00
A.M. passing out pamphlets.Copy !req
175. Any hot picks?
We're all interested.Copy !req
176. For your informationCopy !req
177. our key witness
plays the ponies.Copy !req
178. I'm just looking for OTB's
first simulcast race.Copy !req
179. Uh-huh.
The third at Belmont?Copy !req
180. OkayCopy !req
181. so, I took a little detour.Copy !req
182. Our Jane Doe's
not rushing off anyplace.Copy !req
183. Anyway, we're hoping
that Mr. WongCopy !req
184. snuck her in through the garage.Copy !req
185. Or maybe she landed on the roof.Copy !req
186. Should I even ask?Copy !req
187. Besides self-immolations,
the Deputy Consul General saysCopy !req
188. some of these people
think that they can fly.Copy !req
189. Hey, who am ICopy !req
190. to doubt them?Copy !req
191. It's post time in Ireland.Copy !req
192. All right.Copy !req
193. It's the greatest gig
in the world.Copy !req
194. Once a day, Mrs. Schumacher
goes out to meet her sister.Copy !req
195. Once a week, I take the car out
for a wash and wax.Copy !req
196. A little manicure here,
a lunch there.Copy !req
197. You been by to see
Mrs. Schumacher yet today?Copy !req
198. No.Copy !req
199. Did something happen to her?Copy !req
200. No, but somebody
committed suicideCopy !req
201. in her building
last night.Copy !req
202. It's that,
that O'Grady kid, right?Copy !req
203. That one's not
from this planet.Copy !req
204. No, actually, it was a stranger.Copy !req
205. Nobody knows
how she got into the building.Copy !req
206. We were thinking
maybe you drove her there.Copy !req
207. Hey, I got a better chanceCopy !req
208. of winning the Pick Six
at Santa Anita.Copy !req
209. Mrs. S even smells
another person in that carCopy !req
210. I'm canned.Copy !req
211. Sorry, I can't help you.Copy !req
212. Can I...?Copy !req
213. Yeah, go ahead.Copy !req
214. You buy that?Copy !req
215. Not to profile, but no.Copy !req
216. Aw, come on, this kid eats
apple pie for breakfast.Copy !req
217. Let's go talk
to Mrs. Schumacher anyway.Copy !req
218. I got nothing better
to do till lunch.Copy !req
219. It's horrible, horrible.Copy !req
220. The poor girl.Copy !req
221. Did you see
any strangersCopy !req
222. around the building,
uh, in the halls,
at the elevator?Copy !req
223. No, I don't go
out much anymoreCopy !req
224. now that Freddy's passed on.Copy !req
225. Freddy?
Is that your husband?Copy !req
226. My bichon frise.Copy !req
227. Oh, he loved the park.Copy !req
228. We'd sit on a bench and
he'd bark at the bicycles.Copy !req
229. Actually, Mrs.
SchumacherCopy !req
230. we were wondering
about your driver.Copy !req
231. It's funny
you should bring him up.Copy !req
232. Freddy actually introduced me
to Mr. Wong.Copy !req
233. Your dog introduced
you to your driver?Copy !req
234. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
235. You know those peopleCopy !req
236. that do that strange routine
in the park every day?Copy !req
237. Uh... it's,
it's, it's like karateCopy !req
238. but nobody gets hit.Copy !req
239. Mr. Wong
was one of them?Copy !req
240. Freddy gotCopy !req
241. such a kick out of him.Copy !req
242. I guess I've been doing
the exercisesCopy !req
243. for about a year now.Copy !req
244. My wife read some article
about the health benefitsCopy !req
245. and she got bored,
but I'm still here.Copy !req
246. My ex-wife talked me
into seeing a counselorCopy !req
247. and the counselor talked me
into getting a divorce.Copy !req
248. You ought to try this.Copy !req
249. I mean, all these people wasting
thousands of dollars on shrinksCopy !req
250. when a little free breathing
cures all that ails.Copy !req
251. We hear that there's
a lot more to it
than just breathing.Copy !req
252. That's right.
It fills a spiritual void.Copy !req
253. Falun Gong— it means
"law of the wheel."Copy !req
254. That all things
come full circle.Copy !req
255. Hey, does Tommy Wong
come here often?Copy !req
256. Oh, sure, yeah.Copy !req
257. Mostly mornings now.Copy !req
258. I'm a two-a-dayer.Copy !req
259. Tommy didn't do
anything wrong, did he?Copy !req
260. No, no, we're lookingCopy !req
261. for a friend of his.Copy !req
262. A young lady?Copy !req
263. Falun GongCopy !req
264. is not a singles party,
Detectives.Copy !req
265. Let me ask you this.Copy !req
266. Are any ofCopy !req
267. your regulars missing today?Copy !req
268. Uh...Copy !req
269. Glen Haff— he's on jury duty.Copy !req
270. And Huang Quan.Copy !req
271. She goes by Helen.Copy !req
272. Hardly speaks any English.Copy !req
273. Poor thing,
she sprained her ankle.Copy !req
274. I sprained
my ankle once.Copy !req
275. My foot blew up so badCopy !req
276. I couldn't wear a shoe
for a week.Copy !req
277. Well, you seeCopy !req
278. with our exercisesCopy !req
279. I bet Helen's back
in a day or two.Copy !req
280. If we wanted to,
where would we findCopy !req
281. Ms. Quan?Copy !req
282. Her older sister
cuts my hair at ChamblissCopy !req
283. on 72nd.Copy !req
284. Helen does shampooing there
part-time.Copy !req
285. Just let it sit for a while.Copy !req
286. Helen's not here today.Copy !req
287. She's new to
this countryCopy !req
288. so, whatever
she did, it's...Copy !req
289. Wendy, this may be
kind of rough.Copy !req
290. I am so sorry.Copy !req
291. Stupid little...!Copy !req
292. It would have been easier
if she were hooked on heroin.Copy !req
293. Are you talking
about Falun Gong?Copy !req
294. She called it...
a search for spiritualityCopy !req
295. but it's a cult.Copy !req
296. She was the sweetest
little kid.Copy !req
297. You wouldn't
believe...Copy !req
298. Now... look at her.Copy !req
299. How did she
get involved with it?Copy !req
300. My mom.Copy !req
301. When Dad and I left
18 years ago...Copy !req
302. Put it this way.Copy !req
303. She was a perfect candidate
for their brainwashing.Copy !req
304. But Helen...Copy !req
305. We talked to somebodyCopy !req
306. who thinks Falun Gong
is just a way to stay fit.Copy !req
307. I'm not the biggest fan
of the Chinese governmentCopy !req
308. but maybe they're right.Copy !req
309. Right about what?Copy !req
310. They're trying to deprogram
these people.Copy !req
311. They've created camps for it.Copy !req
312. Helen told me Mom's in one.Copy !req
313. So, that's
what Helen was protesting?Copy !req
314. It's just stupid.Copy !req
315. I mean, what made her thinkCopy !req
316. that this would change
what's going onCopy !req
317. thousands of miles away?Copy !req
318. Did Helen leave a note
or anything?Copy !req
319. If she did leave a suicide noteCopy !req
320. it's not like
I'm going to be
able to read it.Copy !req
321. Uh, David Ong in ViceCopy !req
322. can translate.Copy !req
323. Hey, look at this.Copy !req
324. Picking the Ponies
by Chip Burton.Copy !req
325. That's pretty
strange readingCopy !req
326. for someone who isn't
exactly up to speed
on their English.Copy !req
327. Yeah, but not
for somebodyCopy !req
328. who practically lives
at the OTB.Copy !req
329. Yeah?Copy !req
330. Oh, hey, what's up?Copy !req
331. Okay, okay,
we'll be right there.Copy !req
332. That was the M.E.'s office.Copy !req
333. Good. We can finally
put this to bed.Copy !req
334. Third-degree burns
over 60% of her body.Copy !req
335. Well, we kind of
knew that, Doc.Copy !req
336. Ah, but what you didn't knowCopy !req
337. is that
there was no carbon monoxideCopy !req
338. in her lungs, which means...Copy !req
339. She was dead
before she got torched?Copy !req
340. The petechial hemorrhaging
in her eyes tells me
that she was strangled.Copy !req
341. Well, I guess we can stop
looking for the suicide note.Copy !req
342. The fact is,
you lied, Tommy.Copy !req
343. No, I didn't.Copy !req
344. Hey, maybe this Falun Gong
affects your memoryCopy !req
345. but we asked you
if you knew the womanCopy !req
346. who cooked herself outside
the Deputy Consul's apartment.Copy !req
347. I didn't know
it was Helen.Copy !req
348. But you knew Helen.Copy !req
349. You didn't ask me that.Copy !req
350. I don't like
chasing my tail here.Copy !req
351. I don't know what
you're saying...Copy !req
352. Man, if you don't
give me a straight answerCopy !req
353. I swear to God,
I will beat...Copy !req
354. Okay, okay!Copy !req
355. I knew Helen.Copy !req
356. Thank you.Copy !req
357. I was just tryingCopy !req
358. to help her
become AmericanCopy !req
359. help her with the language,
stuff like that.Copy !req
360. Our people were from
the same part of China.Copy !req
361. So you helped her
with the languageCopy !req
362. by giving her a book
on betting the ponies?Copy !req
363. I don't have that much
reading material.Copy !req
364. That's all
I know.Copy !req
365. We gave you
your chance, man.Copy !req
366. What time's
the next bus to Riker's?Copy !req
367. Wait, just...Copy !req
368. just... just hold on.Copy !req
369. I met her in the park.Copy !req
370. And... and she told me that her
mom was locked up back in China.Copy !req
371. What for?Copy !req
372. For believing.Copy !req
373. Falun Gong
is illegal over there.Copy !req
374. Helen wanted
to help her mom get outCopy !req
375. so when she heard that ChenCopy !req
376. lives in Mrs. Schumacher's
buildingCopy !req
377. she thought maybe
he could do something.Copy !req
378. Would've been a whole lot
easier just to ask nicely.Copy !req
379. Yeah, she tried.Copy !req
380. He wouldn't
take her calls.Copy !req
381. She said something
about suing him.Copy !req
382. She was more American
than we thought.Copy !req
383. So you just snuck her
into the building?Copy !req
384. Yeah.Copy !req
385. But she didn't tell meCopy !req
386. that she was going to light
herself on fire.Copy !req
387. She just wanted to talk.Copy !req
388. Went in through the garageCopy !req
389. and then
I went home.Copy !req
390. Look, I'm
not perfectCopy !req
391. but I'm not going to help
someone commit suicide.Copy !req
392. I need a cup of coffee.Copy !req
393. Wait.Copy !req
394. What about me?Copy !req
395. Make yourself at home, bro.Copy !req
396. You think he doesn't
know she was strangled?Copy !req
397. I think he has trouble
with the truth in general.Copy !req
398. We can't keep him forever
with what we got.Copy !req
399. You talk to the Deputy
Consul General.Copy !req
400. I'll keep Mr. Wong dancing
as long as I can.Copy !req
401. Mr. Wong,
do you have a lawyer?Copy !req
402. She may have comeCopy !req
403. to talk to me,
but I was at the consulateCopy !req
404. with a group
of Chinese businessmenCopy !req
405. until I arrived home
to find youCopy !req
406. in my corridor.Copy !req
407. So you never talked to her?Copy !req
408. Didn't I just
say that?Copy !req
409. I'm sorry.Copy !req
410. I realize Americans
always rootCopy !req
411. for the underdogCopy !req
412. but I didn't see any of youCopy !req
413. coming to the defense
of Jim Jones or David Koresh.Copy !req
414. We didn't come here to have
a political argument with you.Copy !req
415. Of course not, I'm sorry.Copy !req
416. These people just infuriate meCopy !req
417. protesting outside my door
like this.Copy !req
418. It's like the thief
who screams, "Stop, thief."Copy !req
419. Well, we thinkCopy !req
420. this thief was murdered.Copy !req
421. You see?Copy !req
422. They will even sacrifice
their ownCopy !req
423. if it suits their sick purposes.Copy !req
424. Wait a minute.Copy !req
425. You're telling meCopy !req
426. one believer
would kill another oneCopy !req
427. just to prove a point?Copy !req
428. But this wouldn't
be the first time.Copy !req
429. They're sick.Copy !req
430. Some of them cut their own
stomachs openCopy !req
431. to find the wheel inside.Copy !req
432. The interesting
thing hereCopy !req
433. is that one of Helen's
friends told usCopy !req
434. that she brought some sort
of legal action against you.Copy !req
435. For what?Copy !req
436. I told you,
I never saw her before.Copy !req
437. Something to do
with her motherCopy !req
438. back in the old country.Copy !req
439. First of all,
if I had been suedCopy !req
440. it would be dismissed on
jurisdictional grounds alone.Copy !req
441. Second, if I were actually
found liable for somethingCopy !req
442. I could simply leave the countryCopy !req
443. and have a default judgment
entered against me.Copy !req
444. You're right. You could.Copy !req
445. Thank you for
your time, Mr. Chen.Copy !req
446. I realize you're
just doing your jobs.Copy !req
447. A local artistCopy !req
448. back in Tianjin.Copy !req
449. Hey, Tianjin.Copy !req
450. Isn't that where
Helen's sister saidCopy !req
451. their family was from?Copy !req
452. Probably
a coincidence.Copy !req
453. Yeah, so I figure.Copy !req
454. You know, and I'm not
pointing any fingersCopy !req
455. but didn't it sound
like that Deputy ConsulCopy !req
456. knew an awful lot
about lawsuitsCopy !req
457. for somebody who
wasn't getting sued?Copy !req
458. Helen Quan
is new to this country.Copy !req
459. Now, where is she going
to go to find a lawyer?Copy !req
460. My client's already
told your bossCopy !req
461. everything he knows.Copy !req
462. And the bottom line isCopy !req
463. you don't have any possible
cause to hold him any longer.Copy !req
464. (chuckling):
Don't you mean
"probable cause"?Copy !req
465. No, I mean
you don't have anythingCopy !req
466. that even possibly
resembles evidence.Copy !req
467. Well, his lies
are getting us pretty close.Copy !req
468. I told the truth.Copy !req
469. Mr. Chen said he doesn't know
anything about a lawsuit.Copy !req
470. He's lying.Copy !req
471. Actually,
we checked.Copy !req
472. There are no lawsuits
against him in New York.Copy !req
473. Of course there aren't.Copy !req
474. It's a Federal case.Copy !req
475. You need
to speakCopy !req
476. to Sally Xiao.Copy !req
477. She's on Mott Street.Copy !req
478. The Alien Tort Claims ActCopy !req
479. and the Torture Victim
Prevention Act.Copy !req
480. Each gave us jurisdiction
over Mr. Chen.Copy !req
481. You're saying the Deputy Consul
General tortured people?Copy !req
482. He was mayor
of a townCopy !req
483. where the torture took place.Copy !req
484. And they can
sue him hereCopy !req
485. for something he
allegedly did over there?Copy !req
486. That's why America'sCopy !req
487. the greatest country
in the world.Copy !req
488. I don't know—
maybe we'reCopy !req
489. sticking our noses
where we don't belong.Copy !req
490. Why?Copy !req
491. Because China's
not sitting on topCopy !req
492. of millions of gallons of oil?Copy !req
493. To date, there are
481 documented casesCopy !req
494. of Falun Gong practitionersCopy !req
495. being beaten to death
while in detention.Copy !req
496. Only,
from whatCopy !req
497. we heard, they broke
Chinese law first.Copy !req
498. It's not a just law.
It's religious repression.Copy !req
499. Oh, you say
religionCopy !req
500. they say cult.Copy !req
501. Government
propaganda.Copy !req
502. Remember, Detective,
Christianity was once a cult.Copy !req
503. Helen Quan's mother
has been needlessly imprisonedCopy !req
504. for two years,
being fed psychotropic drugsCopy !req
505. and beaten till
she was barely conscious.Copy !req
506. And you know this because..?Copy !req
507. We know.Copy !req
508. No offenseCopy !req
509. but who's spewing
propaganda now?Copy !req
510. You can go.Copy !req
511. Look, this lawsuit you filedCopy !req
512. Mr. Chen says
he never heard about it.Copy !req
513. Would an affidavit of service
convince you he's lying?Copy !req
514. Hello.Copy !req
515. Hmm, says here Mr. Chen was
served with a Federal complaintCopy !req
516. two weeks before
Helen Quan was murdered.Copy !req
517. Maybe losing
a case like thisCopy !req
518. is a little more serious
than hopping on a planeCopy !req
519. with a default judgment
in your briefcase.Copy !req
520. Thank you.Copy !req
521. Let's go see if he really was
at the Consulate that night.Copy !req
522. In China, I work as driver.Copy !req
523. Then I come here with Mr. Chen.Copy !req
524. I gotta tell you,
Mr. YuenCopy !req
525. your boss says you're
doing a hell of a job.Copy !req
526. Uh, Mr. Chen says, uh,
you're the best.Copy !req
527. Best. I know.Copy !req
528. The night thatCopy !req
529. that girl killed herself...Copy !req
530. Is terrible.Copy !req
531. What was the restaurant
that you took Mr. Chen to?Copy !req
532. Mr. Chen and friends
steak eat, 44th Street.Copy !req
533. Okay, we have a problem
with that, Mr. Yuen.Copy !req
534. Your boss said that
he didn't go to a restaurantCopy !req
535. that he was at the Consulate
all night long.Copy !req
536. So you're lyingCopy !req
537. to protect him,
aren't you?Copy !req
538. Protect, yes.Copy !req
539. I not dishonorCopy !req
540. Mr. Chen.Copy !req
541. Dishonor?Copy !req
542. Yes.Copy !req
543. Mr. Chen at girls for money.Copy !req
544. Ah, the international language.Copy !req
545. I wait for himCopy !req
546. to be done
and then take him home.Copy !req
547. These girlsCopy !req
548. where can we find them?Copy !req
549. Excuse me, "escort."Copy !req
550. Oh, yeah,
I always forget.Copy !req
551. Uh, Tuesday night, you
escorted a Chinese gentleman?Copy !req
552. Sure, Mr. Chen.Copy !req
553. He's some kind of big shot
over at the embassy.Copy !req
554. And you're sure that
it was on Tuesday night?Copy !req
555. Would you like
to see my Palm Pilot?Copy !req
556. Uh, actually...Copy !req
557. Well, then why don't
you guys come back?Copy !req
558. With a warrant.Copy !req
559. I'm in my second year.
Manhattan Law.Copy !req
560. So, where did you
escort Mr. Chen?Copy !req
561. We didn't go out.Copy !req
562. At least I didn't.Copy !req
563. But Mr. Chen did?Copy !req
564. It was really a partyCopy !req
565. for these rich guys
over from China.Copy !req
566. Tina and I— we showed them
a hell of a time.Copy !req
567. And Mr. Chen didn't want
to hang around for the fun?Copy !req
568. Nope, he just
gave me some cash.Copy !req
569. He said take care of his palsCopy !req
570. and then he left
and he came back around midnightCopy !req
571. to pick them up.Copy !req
572. Tommy WongCopy !req
573. sneaks Helen
into the building.Copy !req
574. To do what?Copy !req
575. To talk to Chen,
to beg for her mother's releaseCopy !req
576. to sit on the floor
cross-legged in silent protest.Copy !req
577. It don't really matter.Copy !req
578. In court it might.Copy !req
579. Well, Chen's
been lyingCopy !req
580. from the get-go,
Serena.Copy !req
581. The Chinese government
sees these peopleCopy !req
582. as some sort of threat.Copy !req
583. We figured ChenCopy !req
584. dropped his buddies off
to get their jolliesCopy !req
585. went home, and found
Helen Quan sitting there.Copy !req
586. One thing
leads to anotherCopy !req
587. and he makes it
look like she's one
of those fanaticsCopy !req
588. into self-immolation
for a cause.Copy !req
589. A guy like thisCopy !req
590. you put the chains
on his wristsCopy !req
591. he'll crack like a year-old
fortune cookie.Copy !req
592. A Deputy Consul General—
this is way over my head.Copy !req
593. There are rulesCopy !req
594. for consulate
notification.Copy !req
595. International issues.Copy !req
596. Well, if he
gets nervousCopy !req
597. he may split for China.Copy !req
598. If gets anywhere near
an airplane, use the chains.Copy !req
599. Whoa! Excuse me?Copy !req
600. I'm looking for Detective Green.Copy !req
601. Well, he's not here.Copy !req
602. Maybe I can help you.Copy !req
603. Are you working
on the Helen Quan case?Copy !req
604. Actually, I'm
in charge here.Copy !req
605. Well, let me tell you,
you're doing one hell of a job.Copy !req
606. Maybe you should take
a deep breath.Copy !req
607. I just came
from the morgue, Detective.Copy !req
608. Lieutenant.Copy !req
609. She was murdered.Copy !req
610. They told me Helen was...Copy !req
611. Look, why don't we go
in here and have a...Copy !req
612. Don't touch me!Copy !req
613. My baby sister was strangled
and set on fireCopy !req
614. and the man who did it is
eating dinner at Lutece.Copy !req
615. You're referring to Deputy
Consul General Chen?Copy !req
616. He's under surveillance.Copy !req
617. That's great.Copy !req
618. Dad always said
America was a great country.Copy !req
619. He said was there was
justice here, laws.Copy !req
620. He could recite
the Declaration of
Independence by heart.Copy !req
621. You know what?Copy !req
622. I'm glad he's dead.Copy !req
623. That way he didn't have to see
it was all a big fat lie.Copy !req
624. Look, there's
a lot more involvedCopy !req
625. before we can arrest him.Copy !req
626. She was killed at his door.Copy !req
627. Who else could have done it?Copy !req
628. It's because he's big shot,
isn't it?Copy !req
629. What's the use?Copy !req
630. Governments...Copy !req
631. they're all the same.Copy !req
632. I know I said
I like a good fightCopy !req
633. but taking on
an entire governmentCopy !req
634. is not quite what I meant.Copy !req
635. Chen is a lower-level diplomat.Copy !req
636. If he did commit this murderCopy !req
637. I don't think China would
go to the mat for him.Copy !req
638. I was talking about
ourgovernment.Copy !req
639. Another enemy is the last thing
this country needs right now.Copy !req
640. Oh, what the hell.Copy !req
641. Helen Quan's just one person;
there's a billion moreCopy !req
642. where she came from.Copy !req
643. I'll ignore that.Copy !req
644. Since when do weCopy !req
645. turn the other cheek
just becauseCopy !req
646. a couple of international
feathers might get ruffled?Copy !req
647. I don't think we would hesitate
to prosecute Mr. ChenCopy !req
648. if he was a visiting official
from New Jersey.Copy !req
649. Are you two quite done?Copy !req
650. First off, we don't
have to worry aboutCopy !req
651. our visiting officials
in New Jersey being whisked offCopy !req
652. in retaliation
in the middle of the nightCopy !req
653. to dungeons, never to be
heard from again.Copy !req
654. Secondly, our commercial
interests in NewarkCopy !req
655. might not suddenly
find themselvesCopy !req
656. taxed out of businessCopy !req
657. or closed down permanently
with no recourse.Copy !req
658. So, the law is the lawCopy !req
659. unless enforcing it causes
some collateral damage?Copy !req
660. That lady outside
in the blindfoldCopy !req
661. she's got a scale
in her left hand, Serena.Copy !req
662. Yeah, and it's the scale
of justice, not pragmatism.Copy !req
663. Well, sometimes you can't
have one without the other.Copy !req
664. Especially when Pennington,
Cleese is across the aisle.Copy !req
665. Your old firm.Copy !req
666. Representing my old client.Copy !req
667. The whole country
of ChinaCopy !req
668. was your client?Copy !req
669. Up to 10 million a year
in billings.Copy !req
670. So will there be
some kind of conflict here?Copy !req
671. Chen wasn't
even in this countryCopy !req
672. when I represented them.Copy !req
673. But...Copy !req
674. Don't even think
about it, Arthur.Copy !req
675. What?Copy !req
676. Arthur was about to suggest
that we transfer this caseCopy !req
677. to another jurisdiction.Copy !req
678. Well, it would prevent
a hell of a migraine.Copy !req
679. Take an aspirin.Copy !req
680. I was referring toyourhead.Copy !req
681. You think I can't win this.Copy !req
682. Nothing personalCopy !req
683. but Pennington, Cleese has
a lot more money and manpower.Copy !req
684. Where you going?Copy !req
685. To convene a grand jury.Copy !req
686. You don't understand.Copy !req
687. We were better off
than most familiesCopy !req
688. and we would be considered
living in poverty over here.Copy !req
689. Is that what drew people
to the Falun Gong?Copy !req
690. It makes them
search for somethingCopy !req
691. some kind of happiness in life.Copy !req
692. You don't sound
like you approve.Copy !req
693. I hate them.Copy !req
694. None of this
would have happened if...Copy !req
695. Please continue,
Ms. Quan.Copy !req
696. Helen told me
two or three years agoCopy !req
697. the police beat up
members of Falun Gong.Copy !req
698. Our mom then joined a group
of others to protest in Beijing.Copy !req
699. What did Helen tell you
happened after that?Copy !req
700. The Chinese governmentCopy !req
701. doesn't exactly approve
of civil disobedience.Copy !req
702. Cops raided the houses of anyone
in connection with Falun GongCopy !req
703. and threw them
into detention camps.Copy !req
704. Helen called them "prisons."Copy !req
705. And was your mother
one of those taken prisoner?Copy !req
706. Helen said she hid in the closetCopy !req
707. when they dragged Mom
out by her hair.Copy !req
708. When was the last time
you saw Helen?Copy !req
709. The day she died.Copy !req
710. She didn't really understand.Copy !req
711. She thought that if she could
just talk to Mr. Chen...Copy !req
712. I knew that would be
a waste of time.Copy !req
713. But that doesn't mean
she had to die.Copy !req
714. The government startedCopy !req
715. a full-out campaignCopy !req
716. to suppress and destroy
Falun Gong permanently.Copy !req
717. Thousands were rounded up
like cattleCopy !req
718. and shipped off to detention
centers for "reeducation."Copy !req
719. Meaning?Copy !req
720. As I understand it
they were beatenCopy !req
721. tortured, committed
to insane asylums...Copy !req
722. But they weren't
insane.Copy !req
723. They hadfaith.Copy !req
724. The government only wants
the rest of the populationCopy !req
725. tothinkthey're insane.Copy !req
726. Why did Ms. Quan come to you?Copy !req
727. She wanted me to help
get her mother released.Copy !req
728. Of course,
I had no power to do that.Copy !req
729. But I did find
two Federal statutesCopy !req
730. that allow civil action
to be brought againstCopy !req
731. those who commit certain
human rights violations abroad.Copy !req
732. As former Mayor of TianjinCopy !req
733. Mr. Chen was
a potential defendantCopy !req
734. in one of these actions.Copy !req
735. So on behalf of Ms.
Quan, you sued him?Copy !req
736. That is correct.Copy !req
737. And if you were successful
in this actionCopy !req
738. what would happen to Mr. Chen?Copy !req
739. There probably
would have beenCopy !req
740. money damages
awarded to Ms. Quan.Copy !req
741. Mr. Chen would have been
recalled to China.Copy !req
742. But what my client really wantedCopy !req
743. what all practitioners
of Falun Gong wantCopy !req
744. is for the general publicCopy !req
745. to be made aware
of their plight.Copy !req
746. Then maybe world opinionCopy !req
747. would help sway
the Chinese government.Copy !req
748. I drive carCopy !req
749. for Mr. Chen.Copy !req
750. And you've been doing
this for how long?Copy !req
751. Two years in this country.Copy !req
752. Before that, in China.Copy !req
753. Do you remember
the nightCopy !req
754. Ms. Quan was murdered?Copy !req
755. I didn't know.Copy !req
756. I thought she set fire
on herself... sacrificed.Copy !req
757. Can you tell us where Mr. Chen
was that evening?Copy !req
758. At Consulate.Copy !req
759. What time did he leaveCopy !req
760. the Consul?Copy !req
761. Mr. Chen not go out.Copy !req
762. He stay at Consulate.Copy !req
763. For the whole evening?Copy !req
764. Yes.Copy !req
765. Didn't you tell
the police officersCopy !req
766. that you drove Mr. Chen
someplace else?Copy !req
767. I take Mr. Chen to Consulate,
then take him home.Copy !req
768. Nothing else.Copy !req
769. Do you know what perjury is,
Mr. Yuen?Copy !req
770. I tell truth.Copy !req
771. I could put youCopy !req
772. in jail right now, Mr. Yuen!Copy !req
773. I not lie.Copy !req
774. Then you committed
obstructionCopy !req
775. when you lied
to the police.Copy !req
776. Police?Copy !req
777. Crime...Copy !req
778. Mr. Yuen.Copy !req
779. You can't lie to the policeCopy !req
780. or the grand jury
in this country.Copy !req
781. America.Copy !req
782. Forget it, Jack.Copy !req
783. No, I will not.Copy !req
784. Can't you see that he's scared?Copy !req
785. Who knows what will
happen to himCopy !req
786. if he turns on a
ranking official.Copy !req
787. That's his problem, not mine.
I'm sure the
grand juryCopy !req
788. knew exactly what he was doing.Copy !req
789. For his sake, they better.Copy !req
790. Okay, go?Copy !req
791. So?Copy !req
792. They just started
deliberating.Copy !req
793. Are they there
for the free lunchCopy !req
794. or is there actually somethingCopy !req
795. to argue about?Copy !req
796. Chen's driver lied.Copy !req
797. Enter one alibi.Copy !req
798. Which was contradicted
by the call girlCopy !req
799. but... who knows.Copy !req
800. Did I ever tell you
about Howard Pincham?Copy !req
801. He was my right-hand man
at Pennington.Copy !req
802. My guess, he's going to be
opposing counselCopy !req
803. in this affair.Copy !req
804. We can't afford evenCopy !req
805. the appearance of conflict here,
Arthur.Copy !req
806. Where do the canons say a couple
of pals can't shoot the breeze?Copy !req
807. So, back in the
days when I got
paid for workingCopy !req
808. the Chinese government
invited me as their counselCopy !req
809. to visit
their beautiful country.Copy !req
810. The only problem is, I'm what
the kids today call a "homeboy."Copy !req
811. I like to stay home.Copy !req
812. So you sent Howard Pincham?Copy !req
813. The best perk
he ever got.Copy !req
814. He spent the last six months
of '99Copy !req
815. touring the country in style.Copy !req
816. Yup, except for
a wicked caseCopy !req
817. of Mao's revenge,
old Howie had a wonderful time.Copy !req
818. How'd we do?Copy !req
819. It may have been the
quickest indictment
in history.Copy !req
820. Ah, now the fun begins.Copy !req
821. Ichiro on SeattleCopy !req
822. led the league in batting.Copy !req
823. Ich-iro, and
he's Japanese.Copy !req
824. Oh, Chan Ho...Copy !req
825. He's Korean.Copy !req
826. All right, what about
the 7'6" centerCopy !req
827. Dallas just imported?Copy !req
828. Okay, but we'll see
what he does against
Shaq in the post.Copy !req
829. All I'm saying is...Copy !req
830. Hold that thought.Copy !req
831. Excuse me. I have a very
important meeting to go to.Copy !req
832. Hey, you just
read my mind.Copy !req
833. You've got the next
25 to life off, pal.Copy !req
834. Li Chen, you're under arrest
for the murder of Helen Quan.Copy !req
835. Call the lawyer, Yuen.Copy !req
836. I guess you don't have to read
him the rest of the speech, Ed.Copy !req
837. Docket #32444.Copy !req
838. People v. Li Chen.Copy !req
839. One count of Murder
in the First Degree.Copy !req
840. How does your client plead?Copy !req
841. He doesn't.Copy !req
842. Excuse me?Copy !req
843. Mr. Chen has
consular immunity.Copy !req
844. It's improper
for these chargesCopy !req
845. to have been brought
against him at all.Copy !req
846. I demandCopy !req
847. that you release him
immediately.Copy !req
848. You know I'd love to,
Mr. PinchamCopy !req
849. but your client's charged
with murderCopy !req
850. not a parking ticket.Copy !req
851. This sarcasm offends me,
Your Honor.Copy !req
852. Well, then go back to
the white collar worldCopy !req
853. where people say "please" before
they screw you to the wall.Copy !req
854. Now you've got until 3:00
to give me a plea. One...Copy !req
855. Not guilty, Your Honor.Copy !req
856. With the stipulation
on the recordCopy !req
857. that this is not
an implicit submissionCopy !req
858. to this court's jurisdiction.Copy !req
859. You know, Mr. Chen, your
attorney's worth every pennyCopy !req
860. he's picking from your pocket.Copy !req
861. Your Honor, under
the circumstancesCopy !req
862. the risk of flight is high...Copy !req
863. Save your breath,
Counselor.Copy !req
864. Defendant is remanded
without bail.Copy !req
865. You should've
seen them, Jack.Copy !req
866. Talk about weird.Copy !req
867. They were just frozen
there like statues.Copy !req
868. In this country,
weird is allowed.Copy !req
869. Howard Pincham.Copy !req
870. Pleasure.Copy !req
871. Do you really think
he's necessary?Copy !req
872. Your client committed
a serious crime.Copy !req
873. Well, even in ChinaCopy !req
874. they require a little
evidence of guilt.Copy !req
875. He lied to
the policeCopy !req
876. about Ms. Quan's
lawsuit and his alibi.Copy !req
877. And Moses lied
to his peopleCopy !req
878. when he said,
"We're almost there."Copy !req
879. You can do better
than that, Mr. Pincham.Copy !req
880. I'm just saying
that sometimesCopy !req
881. there's a very good reason
to stretch the truth.Copy !req
882. I lied about the lawsuit
because I knewCopy !req
883. it would make me look
like I had motiveCopy !req
884. to kill Ms. Quan.Copy !req
885. Guess what, Mr. Chen? It does.Copy !req
886. And the alibi?Copy !req
887. I was at the consulate.Copy !req
888. You know, in China,
these people would be in prisonCopy !req
889. because they are criminals.Copy !req
890. Because they happenCopy !req
891. to believe in something
you don't.Copy !req
892. Because they sabotaged an entire
communication systemCopy !req
893. taking over a satellite
in China.Copy !req
894. BecauseCopy !req
895. they brainwash innocentsCopy !req
896. into cutting their bellies openCopy !req
897. looking for following
the "wheel of law."Copy !req
898. The bottom line,
Mr. McCoy—Copy !req
899. the girl's lawsuit
was at best frivolousCopy !req
900. and at worst, unconstitutional.Copy !req
901. It's like suing you in SicilyCopy !req
902. for convicting John Gotti here.Copy !req
903. Either wayCopy !req
904. I don't think Mr. Chen
or his friends back homeCopy !req
905. would want the world
looking their way.Copy !req
906. I'm sure
you're awareCopy !req
907. that I could
go into courtCopy !req
908. tomorrow and argueCopy !req
909. that this whole thing
should be dismissedCopy !req
910. because Mr. Chen's
diplomatic status renders himCopy !req
911. immune to
prosecution.Copy !req
912. Only for acts that fallCopy !req
913. within the scope
of his official duties.Copy !req
914. I don't think murder counts.Copy !req
915. I said I could
go into courtCopy !req
916. and argue the motion.Copy !req
917. I didn't say I would win.Copy !req
918. But you'd keep us busy
drafting a brief.Copy !req
919. And after thatCopy !req
920. you could respond to my motionCopy !req
921. to change venue
to federal court.Copy !req
922. Of course we'd be willing
to save the costCopy !req
923. and hassle of going to trial
by discussing a plea.Copy !req
924. For what?Copy !req
925. Mr. Chen didn't kill that girl.Copy !req
926. You know, Mr. ChenCopy !req
927. I've been thinking
of traveling to China.Copy !req
928. I'm very happy for you, McCoy.Copy !req
929. Of course I'd go to Beijing,
but I'd want to see more.Copy !req
930. Would your hometown
be of any interest?Copy !req
931. Well, Tianjin is
a beautiful city.Copy !req
932. But would an American appreciate
its beauty?Copy !req
933. Well, Mr. Pincham
thought so...Copy !req
934. Stop.Copy !req
935. You visited Tianjin, did you?Copy !req
936. That has no bearing
on this case.Copy !req
937. On the contrary.Copy !req
938. If we go to trial,
I could call you as a witnessCopy !req
939. to testify
about the detention campsCopy !req
940. or lack thereof.Copy !req
941. Whatever the
case may be.Copy !req
942. That puts you...Copy !req
943. No, that puts your entire firm
in a precarious legal position.Copy !req
944. Serena, why don't you
start drafting a briefCopy !req
945. to have Mr. Pincham's law firm
disqualified?Copy !req
946. This is ridiculous.
Perhaps.Copy !req
947. But look at all those fees
your firm will loseCopy !req
948. if a judge agrees with me.Copy !req
949. The fee comes first.Copy !req
950. It's the motto
of every Wall Street litigator.Copy !req
951. What are the oddsCopy !req
952. that Pincham will recuse
the firm from this case?Copy !req
953. What are the oddsCopy !req
954. that an elf will pop out
of my deskCopy !req
955. and spit cider in my ear?Copy !req
956. At Pennington,
the only thing worseCopy !req
957. than losing a case
is losing a client.Copy !req
958. Especially one with seven zeros
in the year-end bill.Copy !req
959. So I wasted my breath.Copy !req
960. No.Copy !req
961. Right about nowCopy !req
962. I figure that Pincham and 12
of his partners are squeezedCopy !req
963. into a visiting room at Riker's
trying to convince Mr. ChenCopy !req
964. to cut a deal.Copy !req
965. Let's hope he listens.Copy !req
966. You know, ArthurCopy !req
967. some people might interpret
what you told me as...Copy !req
968. And they would be wrong.Copy !req
969. Get you a refill?Copy !req
970. Howard?Copy !req
971. I didn't think
they let Harvard menCopy !req
972. in here unescorted.Copy !req
973. I'm meeting O'Keefe
for dinner.Copy !req
974. You see this?Copy !req
975. The Second Circuit reversed
Barsky.Copy !req
976. I could have you disbarred
for this, Arthur.Copy !req
977. For having a drink?Copy !req
978. You told McCoyCopy !req
979. I visited Tianjin.Copy !req
980. Just because
you left the firm doesn't meanCopy !req
981. you can disclose
confidential informationCopy !req
982. about my dealings with clients.Copy !req
983. If you recallCopy !req
984. I skipped your home movies
of that trip.Copy !req
985. Splitting hairs doesn't
become you, Arthur.Copy !req
986. We'll just have to seeCopy !req
987. what the Ethics Committee
thinks.Copy !req
988. Unless, of course...Copy !req
989. Are you trying toCopy !req
990. extort a deal out of me, Howard?Copy !req
991. A proposal, that's all.Copy !req
992. Suppose I turn my back
on this Bar Association thingCopy !req
993. and you agree to send Mr. Chen
back to China?Copy !req
994. So he can be tried for murder
by his own people?Copy !req
995. Exactly.Copy !req
996. By a culture
that understands him.Copy !req
997. Sounds good.Copy !req
998. Huh. I knew
you'd be reasonable.Copy !req
999. Reasonable but not stupid.Copy !req
1000. Back home, Chen might
receive the medal of honorCopy !req
1001. for murdering Helen Quan.Copy !req
1002. You love this, don't you?Copy !req
1003. Squeezing me into a corner.Copy !req
1004. Just doing my job.Copy !req
1005. Only Chen didn'tCopy !req
1006. kill that girlCopy !req
1007. and you don't have any evidence
to prove he did.Copy !req
1008. And he doesn't have an alibi.Copy !req
1009. We know he wasn't feeling
particularly frisky that night.Copy !req
1010. If you're talking aboutCopy !req
1011. the call girls,
that's not Chen's thing.Copy !req
1012. What is?Copy !req
1013. A dry vodka martiniCopy !req
1014. from the Beekman Hotel
around the corner.Copy !req
1015. The bartenderCopy !req
1016. at the Beekman showed me
Chen's credit card receiptsCopy !req
1017. for three drinks.Copy !req
1018. That would be
a pretty good alibi.Copy !req
1019. Then why
didn't he justCopy !req
1020. tell us that in the first place?Copy !req
1021. Who knows? Maybe he thought
it would somehow lead backCopy !req
1022. to the call girlsCopy !req
1023. which might embarrass
his important business friends.Copy !req
1024. Yeah, but we
already knewCopy !req
1025. about the call girls, Jack.Copy !req
1026. Why would he risk
going to jail for that?Copy !req
1027. Maybe he believesCopy !req
1028. the American justice system
actually works.Copy !req
1029. Chen knows
he didn't kill Helen QuanCopy !req
1030. so what's one little lie
to protect friends?Copy !req
1031. Yeah, there's a lot of that
going around in this case.Copy !req
1032. The driver.Copy !req
1033. That's who I'm
referring to.Copy !req
1034. He told Briscoe and GreenCopy !req
1035. that he waited for Chen outside
the call girl's apartment.Copy !req
1036. But if that were true,
he would have seen Chen leave.Copy !req
1037. As I was saying...Copy !req
1038. Then he wouldn't
have told usCopy !req
1039. about the call girls
in the first place.Copy !req
1040. He would have said
Chen had a drink at the hotel.Copy !req
1041. He didn't know Chen wasn't
where he was supposed to be.Copy !req
1042. Do you think
he's covering for himself?Copy !req
1043. I'm going to talk to him.Copy !req
1044. Not yet.Copy !req
1045. I knew it.Copy !req
1046. As soon as they sold
to them people.Copy !req
1047. You mean Mr. Chen.Copy !req
1048. Damn Communists.Copy !req
1049. Next thing,
Osama'll set up shop.Copy !req
1050. What's happening
to this country?Copy !req
1051. Put a fence around the island
is what I say.Copy !req
1052. Yeah, I hear you.Copy !req
1053. Um, I got to ask you
a question or twoCopy !req
1054. about the night
that girl was killed.Copy !req
1055. I already told the copsCopy !req
1056. I didn't see no strangers
enter the building.Copy !req
1057. I know, but what I'd
really like to know isCopy !req
1058. if you saw his assistant
here that night.Copy !req
1059. You mean Schwarzenegger?Copy !req
1060. Excuse me?Copy !req
1061. It's always, "I'll be back."Copy !req
1062. Like Arnold wouldn't crush him
like a bug.Copy !req
1063. And that night?Copy !req
1064. Yeah, he was here.Copy !req
1065. Maybe an hour,
maybe a little more.Copy !req
1066. Then he went out
to get the bossCopy !req
1067. with another "I'll be back."Copy !req
1068. We want to talk to you
about your boss.Copy !req
1069. Mr. Chen is great man.Copy !req
1070. For a murderer.Copy !req
1071. He no kill lady.Copy !req
1072. Maybe not with
his own handsCopy !req
1073. but in this country,
if he told you to do itCopy !req
1074. it's just the same
as if he did it himself.Copy !req
1075. He not tell me.Copy !req
1076. No, I not kill.Copy !req
1077. But you were the only oneCopy !req
1078. in Mr. Chen's apartment
that night.Copy !req
1079. No. I wait outside girls.Copy !req
1080. It's time
to stop lying, Mr. Yuen.Copy !req
1081. Mr. Chen busy for hours.Copy !req
1082. So you went to
his apartment?Copy !req
1083. Mr. Chen have satellite TV.Copy !req
1084. Why she want
to send Mr. Chen home?Copy !req
1085. Why she want judge
to send him home?Copy !req
1086. I tell her,
"Be nice to Mr. Chen."Copy !req
1087. I beg her not
to have judge send him home.Copy !req
1088. But she refused.Copy !req
1089. She said she want
to talk to him right now!Copy !req
1090. I say, "No. Chen not home."Copy !req
1091. The lady bang on door
and scream at me.Copy !req
1092. "Where is Chen?
Where is Chen?"Copy !req
1093. That must have made you angry.Copy !req
1094. Chen good man.
He not kill people.Copy !req
1095. So you killed herCopy !req
1096. so that she would
leave Mr. Chen alone.Copy !req
1097. She not believe Chen a good man.Copy !req
1098. She say judge send him home.Copy !req
1099. And I don't want to go home.Copy !req
1100. And if Chen was sued
successfullyCopy !req
1101. he'd be forced
to return to ChinaCopy !req
1102. and you'd have to go back
with him.Copy !req
1103. And you'd do anything not
to have to be sent back.Copy !req
1104. America...Copy !req
1105. have free.Copy !req
1106. I stay in America.Copy !req
1107. Sally Xiao's going
to represent him pro bono.Copy !req
1108. My guess is she'll take Man One.Copy !req
1109. Mr. Yuen wanted freedom
badly enough to kill for it.Copy !req
1110. Now he's goingCopy !req
1111. to spend the next
eight and a third
to 25 in Attica.Copy !req
1112. Makes you realize
why people in China
are finding religion.Copy !req
1113. Makes me glad
I turned down that trip.Copy !req
