Attorney Clem Marker : Your Honor, the crudeness of this scheme shocks me. There was nothing in that room to indicate the commission of any crime, and yet this witness...
Police Sgt. Michael 'Mickey' Beers : There was plenty!
Attorney Clem Marker : Plenty? A moment ago you said you had only a hunch!
Police Sgt. Michael 'Mickey' Beers : Yeah, I had more than that. Thornwall tried to kill his wife once before, and she called the police!
Attorney Clem Marker : Mistrial! Your Honor, I move for a mistrial! His is the most damaging piece of viciously prejudicial evidence I have ever heard in any courtroom!
Dan Callahan : There's no ground for a mistrial! If he didn't want the answer, he shouldn't have asked the question!
Judge Leland Hoffman : Order!
[Bangs gavel]
Judge Leland Hoffman : Order!
[Bangs gavel again]
Judge Leland Hoffman : I'm going to clear this room if we don't have order.
