| My name is McGovern.
Mr. McGovern to you. |
00:02:39.034 - 00:02:42.746 |
| I am the Assistant to the Assistant
Deputy Administrative Assistant to... |
00:02:43.580 - 00:02:47.292 |
| the District Attorney of New York County. |
00:02:47.417 - 00:02:49.461 |
| You are in training as Assistant
District Attorneys of New York County. |
00:02:50.086 - 00:02:53.506 |
| And my Assistant title is a hell of a
lot higher than your Assistant title. |
00:02:53.673 - 00:02:56.301 |
| So watch your asses you're out of here.
You passed your bar exams and 're here... |
00:02:56.968 - 00:03:00.430 |
| because you didn't get a decent offer
after law school... |
00:03:00.555 - 00:03:02.390 |
| and you got to start someplace. |
00:03:02.515 - 00:03:03.808 |
| I know what you got in mind. You'll do
your time here because... |
00:03:03.933 - 00:03:06.394 |
| you got to have something on your resume. |
00:03:06.478 - 00:03:08.563 |
| One or two of you figure maybe you'll
get lucky, maybe Alan Dershowitz, |
00:03:08.980 - 00:03:11.149 |
| maybe Bruce Cutler will see you... |
00:03:11.232 - 00:03:13.234 |
| in court one day waiting for their cases
to come up and your career will be made. |
00:03:13.318 - 00:03:16.738 |
| Most of you just want a stepping stone
to some Wall Street law office... |
00:03:17.447 - 00:03:20.158 |
| or a divorce firm with society clients. |
00:03:20.241 - 00:03:22.327 |
| You're in it for the money.
Don't give me any crap about justice... |
00:03:22.410 - 00:03:25.497 |
| the law, the sacredness of your duty,
blah blah, blah. |
00:03:25.580 - 00:03:29.042 |
| You're out of here as fast as
a decent offer comes around |
00:03:29.167 - 00:03:31.127 |
| you figure you can
do better chasing ambulances. |
00:03:31.252 - 00:03:33.588 |
| Listen, you're going to fight judges
that don't give a shit, |
00:03:34.339 - 00:03:36.466 |
| cops in court only to see how much
overtime they can rack up... |
00:03:37.592 - 00:03:39.052 |
