Clyde Shelton: Counselor? You might want to cancel your 12:30 lunch with Judge Roberts.
Nick Rice: Excuse me?
Clyde Shelton: In fact, you might want to cancel the rest of the week because you're going to be busy. Sit down.
Nick Rice: We're done here. We have your confession.
Clyde Shelton: Oh, you do?

Clyde Shelton: Well, *it's not what you know, it's what you can prove in court*! Didn't you tell me that once?
