- Frank Galvin: Hi! Frank Galvin. I, uh - I represent Deborah Ann Kaye in the case against St. Catherine Labouré.
- Maureen Rooney: I told the guy I didn't wanna talk to anybody.
- Frank Galvin: Just take a second. Deborah Ann Kaye. You know what I'm talking about. Did you hear who our chief witness is?
- Maureen Rooney: No.
- Frank Galvin: It's David Gruber. He's the, uh, assistant chief anesthesiologist in Mass Commonwealth. He says that your doctors, Towler and Marx, put my client in the hospital for life. And we can prove that. So what we don't know is why. I mean what went on in there in the operating room? I mean something happened, you know what it was. They gave her the wrong anesthetic, now something happened. I mean it was a distraction, what, the telephone, what?
- Maureen Rooney: You have your doctor's testimony. What do you need me for?
- Frank Galvin: 'Cause we need someone who was in the operating room. We're gonna win the case. I mean there's no question of that, it's just simply a matter of how big.
- Maureen Rooney: Hm... Well I don't have anything to say to you.
- Frank Galvin: Yeah. You know what happened.
- Maureen Rooney: Nothing happened.
- Frank Galvin: Then why don't you testify for their side? I can subpoena you, you know. I can put you up there on the stand.
- Maureen Rooney: And ask me WHAT?
- Frank Galvin: Who turned my client into a goddamn vegetable!
- Maureen Rooney: Well I didn't do it, mister!
- Frank Galvin: Then who are you protecting?
- Maureen Rooney: Who says I'm protecting anyone?
- Frank Galvin: What, doctors? What do y - what do you owe them?
- Maureen Rooney: I don't owe them a goddamn thing!
- Frank Galvin: Then why don't you testify for them?
- Maureen Rooney: You know, you're a very pushy fella.
- Frank Galvin: You think I'm pushy now, wait till I get you up there on the stand!
- Maureen Rooney: Well maybe you'd just better DO that then!
- [beat]
- Maureen Rooney: You know, you guys are all the same. You don't care who you hurt. All you care about is a dollar, you're a bunch of whores! You've got no loyalty... no nothing, you're a bunch of whores!
