Quotes 

• [after learning the Fuhrman tapes mention Peggy York, Judge Ito's wife] 

  Johnnie Cochran : We are in perilous waters. The prosecution can manipulate this situation. Marcia and Chris are in trouble, their case is dying. Suddenly, they get thrown a life preserver, "Peggy" on tape. So, they game it, Ito gets tossed for the conflict, they get a new trial.

  [slams hand down on table] 

  F. Lee Bailey : Jesus, a complete do-over.

  Robert Kardashian : W-Wait a minute, try the case again? We-we can't, we can't live through this again!

  Johnnie Cochran : And they could move the trial back to Santa Monica, get a white jury.

  F. Lee Bailey : And this time, they don't call Fuhrman, the LAPD doesn't get tarnished and the tapes never get played.

  Johnnie Cochran : The scenario is *unthinkable*. We are *this* close to them being admitted!

  [beat] 

  Johnnie Cochran : Does Ito even know yet?
