fall asleep. Finally... ...she turned towards the window, at about 10 minutes after 12, and as she looked out, she saw the killing through the windows of the passing el train. She says, the lights went out immediately after the killing, but that she got a good look at the boy in the act of stabbing his father. You know, as far as I can see, this is unshakeable testimony! That's what I mean, it's the whole case! What do you think? What about you? Well... ...I don't know, it's... There's so many things to shift through... I... I... This is pretty complicated business... Really, I don't see how we can vote for an acquiter? Well... ...it's just not easy to arrange the evidence in order. You can throw out all the other evidence! The woman saw him do it! What else do you want? Well... maybe... Let's vote now. Alright jentlemen, another vote is called for. Anyone object? I'm changing my vote. I think he's guilty... Anybody else? What makes you consider this one vote a personal triumph? I'm the competitive type! Here's what I think... I think we're a hung jury, let's take it inside to the judge. What? - You didn't want a hung jury before... - Well, I do now! I... I don't understand that. You thought it was immoral. I don't anymore... People in here are so god damn stubborn! We'll never get this done, we'll be here for a week! I wanna hear an argument. I say we're a hung jury... Well, come on! You're the leader of the cause, what about it? Let's go over it again. We went over it again... J. Walter Thomson over here has been bouncing back and forth like a ping pong ball! - Wait a minute... You don't have to call me... - I apologise! On my knees! Come on... Let's get out from under this thing, eh? Alright, alright... Maybe we can talk about setting some kind of a time limit. - What's the time? - Quarter after six. Quarter after six... Someone before mentioned seven o'clock. I think that's the point at which we might begin to discuss the question about whether we are a hung jury, or not. - Excuse me! - Yes. Don't you feel well? Oh, I feel perfectly well, thank you very much. I was saying, 7 o'clock would be... The reason I asked was that you were rubbing your nose... I'm sorry to interrupt... ...but you made a gesture, that reminded me of one of the witnesses... I was trying to say something here, do you mind? I think this is important! Ok, go ahead, please, go ahead... Thank you! I hope you'll forgive me for this, but... ...I was wondering why... ...why were you rubbing your nose like that? Come on now, would you please? Right now, I'm talking to this jentleman here. Now... Why were you rubbing your nose? Well, if it's any of your business, I was rubbing it because it bothers me. Is it because of your eyeglasses? It is, yes, it is, could we get on to something else please? Your eyeglasses make those deep impressions on the side of your nose. Yes... I hadn't noticed that before... They must be annoying. Oh yes, oh yes, they are... Very, very annoying. I wouldn't know about that. I've never worn eyeglasses. 20-20! Hey come on with the optometrist bit already! The woman who testified that she saw the killing, had those same deep marks on the side of her nose. Wow! Did you see that? Please... please... just a minute! Please! Just a minute... ...and I'll be finished. I don't know if any of you noticed that... ...I didn't think about it then... ...but, I've been going over her face in my mind... She had those marks! She kept rubbing them in court... - He's right! - He's right, she did do that a lot! This woman, was about 45 years old, making a tremendous effort to look 35... You know, for her first public appearance... Dyed hair, heavy make-up and brand new clothes... ...which would have been more suitable on a younger woman... ...and... no eyeglasses! See if you can get a picture a mental picture of her.
