00:00Previously on The Guardian...
00:02I am sentencing you to 1,500 hours of community service.
00:07I'm doing you a favor because I respect your father.
00:10Now, if you prefer to return to Judge Stanton and explore your other option,
00:13which I understood to be jail time, then you may.
00:15Hi, I'm Nick.
00:16Hi, Nick.
00:17Ivan's offered to be your new sponsor, Nick.
00:19Don't expect me to call you or anything, because I don't need...
00:22I don't need anyone.
00:30Young Mr. Fallon.
00:35Judge Stanton.
00:36Good morning.
00:37You live around here?
00:38Yeah, just around the corner.
00:40Me too.
00:42Number 27.
00:43For neighbors.
00:45Look, I've been meaning to call you.
00:48Oh, is there something wrong?
00:50No, no, no, no.
00:51As you know, I've been appointed to the federal bench.
00:54Yes, I heard. Congratulations.
00:57So your case is being taken over by Judge Handley.
00:59Oh.
01:00Oh, oh.
01:01Down, boy.
01:02Why?
01:03Down.
01:04You, uh...
01:05You like dogs?
01:07Nicholas, why don't you send the dry cleaning bill to my office?
01:09No, no, no.
01:10That's no problem.
01:11Uh, Nick.
01:12I'm really glad things are going well for you.
01:14I'm glad for you and for your dad.
01:18Come on, boy.
01:22Okay, just sit down here.
01:24Okay?
01:25Hey, Lori.
01:28Damn, you look great.
01:29What's up?
01:30I had to speak at a fundraising breakfast with the William Penn.
01:33I just picked up this kid who's here for a delinquency hearing and I'm pressed for time.
01:37Is it okay if we interview him together?
01:38Yeah, no problem.
01:39I should wait in my office.
01:40Okay.
01:41Hey, Nick.
01:42Good morning.
01:43Uh, listen, uh...
01:44I'm going to the 12.30 meeting today.
01:45You wanna come?
01:46Oh, come on, Nick.
01:47It's important.
01:48Great, great.
01:49We'll, uh, we'll have lunch afterwards.
01:50We'll talk about things.
01:51Do I have an appointment with you?
01:52The receptionist told me to wait in here.
01:53It's a very simple thing, really.
01:54How can I help you, Miss, uh...
01:55McGregor.
01:56Eight years ago, my daughter Grace was coming home from school.
01:59Do I have an appointment with you?
02:07The receptionist told me to wait in here.
02:10It's a very simple thing, really.
02:15How can I help you, Miss...
02:17McGregor.
02:21Eight years ago, my daughter Grace was coming home from school.
02:25She got off at her stop a hundred yards from our front door.
02:30And the bus driver closed the door and waved goodbye.
02:34She got off at the stop, but she never made it home.
02:38I looked all over the country for her.
02:41I even went to Canada once.
02:43I'm very sorry, Miss McGregor.
02:45I just...
02:47I don't understand why you're here.
02:50A few years before she disappeared,
02:53Gracie and I were in a car accident.
02:56A drunk driver ran a red light and hit us.
02:59I wasn't hurt, but Gracie broke her arm and her leg.
03:03Okay.
03:04The driver's insurance company settled out with us
03:07for $95,000 in trust for Grace.
03:12Right, so now you want the money.
03:13My husband died a few years back,
03:15and I've been making ends meet ever since then,
03:18but my landlord told me last week
03:20that he wants to sell my house.
03:22The only way we can stay
03:24is if I buy it outright,
03:26and I can't get the money to do that.
03:31Unless...
03:32Unless I...
03:35Unless you have your daughter declared dead.
03:39I don't want to do this,
03:41but I can't move.
03:43When Grace comes home,
03:46I've got to be there.
04:01I am sentencing you
04:03to 1,500 hours of community service,
04:06using your skills as a corporate attorney
04:09to work as a child advocate.
04:11I am sentencing you
04:41in a football game, right?
04:42And the announcer,
04:44he started talking about the confluence
04:46of these three great rivers, you know,
04:48and how the Indians,
04:49even they knew that it had special powers.
04:51So I decided I had to go out and see it for myself.
04:57When did you do this?
04:58It was a Tuesday or Saturday.
05:03Once I was here,
05:04I wanted to get a few for the rivers
05:08from different parts of the city, you know?
05:10So I took the 41C bus,
05:13crossed the rivers.
05:15It was a beautiful ride.
05:17But the glass,
05:18it blocked the water.
05:20That's why I had to break the window.
05:23It says here that you hit a policeman.
05:27I didn't want to get off the bus.
05:29They're usually not so mean.
05:31You've done this before?
05:35Only when he tells me to.
05:37Who tells you to do this?
05:44Mr. Whisper.
05:47He's kind of a spirit guy that I know.
05:51Mr. Whisper.
05:53Right.
05:54He thought that the energy, you know,
05:57coming from the three rivers,
05:58it would be relaxing to me.
06:01I think he has a point.
06:04Ted, do you ever hear voices
06:06of people who aren't there?
06:07They are there.
06:08You just can't see them.
06:10Have you ever talked to a psychiatrist?
06:13Psychiatrist?
06:15No way.
06:17So you were in detention
06:19at the Schumann Center for nine days?
06:23Yes.
06:24And you never talked to one there?
06:26No, it's not an asylum.
06:31It's more like a detention home.
06:37Yeah, Grace McGregor.
06:38It's my case.
06:41You know, in my line of work,
06:43it's always about a gut reaction.
06:46Because most of the time
06:47when people are missing,
06:49they're back in a day or two.
06:50But the minute that lady walked in,
06:52I knew that kid was gone.
06:55And the investigation?
06:57Well, it's still open, technically.
06:59We chased down hundreds of leads.
07:01The FBI is working with us,
07:03but we're not going to find her.
07:04Now, this is the nightmare.
07:06Missing little girl on her way home from school.
07:08Suspects?
07:09Everyone.
07:10Including Ms. McGregor?
07:11No one just drops off the face of the earth.
07:13You did investigate her?
07:14Yeah.
07:16Responsible.
07:17No incidents in the past.
07:19No problems with drugs.
07:20At one point, between us and the feds,
07:22we had six full-time guys on this.
07:25We searched all over Western Pennsylvania.
07:27We asked all the hard questions,
07:29but nothing.
07:31Not a moment of hope in this one.
07:35She wants to put this behind her?
07:38Yeah.
07:39Okay.
07:40I'll put out one last notice.
07:43Worldwide.
07:44And close it.
07:47Tell Janine.
07:49Tell her she's in my prayers.
07:56Why is he at Southwestern Psych?
07:58I don't think he's ever been examined.
08:01And this is a delinquency hearing?
08:03They're throwing the book at him.
08:04Assault, battery, and interfering with a police action.
08:07They probably looked in his file,
08:08saw all that petty crime,
08:10and decided to repeat offender.
08:14Okay.
08:15Okay.
08:16I'll represent him.
08:25I'm not a person who likes to face my problems head on.
08:28Never have been.
08:30You know?
08:31So, uh, I'm about me sponsoring you.
08:35I don't want you to hesitate.
08:37Call day or night, or drop by.
08:39You've got all my numbers, right?
08:40Yeah.
08:40I, uh, I, uh, I, uh, I had some slips when I started out.
08:45Huh.
08:46A lot of slips.
08:47Alvin, we got drunk together about three months ago.
08:49Yeah.
08:50Uh, well, uh, yeah.
08:53Uh, all I'm saying is you can tell me anything.
08:55Thanks.
08:56Thanks.
08:57You know what?
08:58I'm gonna have to skip lunch.
09:00I, I got a lot of...
09:01Wait, wait, wait.
09:01I, I, I got you something.
09:06Uh, a book.
09:09Oh.
09:09Sane and sober.
09:16Well, thanks.
09:18Thanks.
09:20It, it's a good book.
09:27You understand that there is a statute that allows a judge to declare a person dead if that person has been missing for more than seven years.
09:33Now, in order for you to get the money, the corpus of the trust must become part of Grace's estate, and then it will pass under the rules of intestacy to you.
09:53We never even had a funeral.
09:55So, I'll, I'll see you tomorrow morning at the courthouse, outside courtroom 201, nine o'clock.
10:12Young Mr. Fallon.
10:14Don't think I've just been walking my dog all day.
10:17Oh, I'm sure you have.
10:18No, I knew hours are better, so I see.
10:21Hey, how are things at, uh, legal services?
10:23You know, I worked, uh, for legal aid.
10:26I mean, it was the best three years of my working life.
10:29I mean, I've been all over the system of private practice, not-for-profit, the state judge, and now federal judge.
10:36And the best part of the work, it's not about making the decisions, it's about the, you know, people I've got along the way, the things that they've shown me about this life.
10:48He likes you.
10:50Yeah, a little too much.
10:52Yeah.
10:53Well, uh, Nicholas, your father is, uh, one of the best lawyers I've known.
10:59And when he talks to me about you, he tells me that you're ten times the lawyer he'll ever be.
11:06He does.
11:07So what do you think, man?
11:09Do you think you're gonna be that good?
11:10Miss McGregor, this is Nicholas Fallon.
11:17I understand that you may have second thoughts about this, but I can't wait here any longer.
11:21As soon as you get this message, call me back.
11:23Your hearing's canceled.
11:24Why?
11:25The police called Janine McGregor.
11:26Our daughter Grace was found alive in Holland.
11:29The Dutch government put her on a flight back home early this morning.
11:31That's me.
11:31No!
11:31No!
11:32No!
11:51No!
11:51No!
11:51Oh, Mr. Fallon, what brings you over?
12:06Well, I have some paperwork of yours to return.
12:07Oh, yes, well, please come in, please.
12:11I want you to meet Grace.
12:14I was just making some tea.
12:16Would you like some?
12:17No, thank you.
12:18Soda?
12:18Oh, sure, please.
12:21Here you go.
12:41No, I'm fine, thank you.
12:43She's been sleeping.
12:45She's so exhausted.
12:47I'm sure.
12:48In a way, I have you to thank for this.
12:53Me?
12:54Yes.
12:55If you hadn't filed the paperwork, then the police would never have sent out that notice.
12:59And if that hadn't happened, then Grace would never have come home to me.
13:05Miss McGregor, a couple of things.
13:07Yes?
13:08By law, the FBI and the police can't investigate the veracity of a returned missing person unless the parent orders forensic tests, fingerprints, blood tests.
13:18Mr. Fallon, I understand your concern.
13:21But this is Grace.
13:23I'm her mother.
13:24I know my daughter.
13:26Well, I just, to make sure.
13:27And there she is.
13:31Grace.
13:32Mr. Fallon, this is Grace.
13:37Grace, I don't know your first name.
13:40Nick.
13:42Grace.
13:44It's amazing that you're back.
13:45One more day and you would have missed your own death.
13:52I'm going to go get something to eat, Mom.
13:53Okay, sweetheart.
13:55I'm still so tired.
13:56Yes, get something to eat and then get some more sleep.
13:58Yes.
13:58Yes.
14:02The bank wants some ID before we can get the money.
14:08They want an affidavit.
14:11It's just a statement to verify her identity.
14:13Can you help me with that?
14:15Yeah, sure.
14:19Your Honor, since his initial arrest in March, Ted Popper's been evicted from four group homes.
14:25I don't see why we should be forced to gamble on a fifth.
14:27He belongs in lockup.
14:28Judge Damsey, Ted does not need punishment.
14:31He needs psychiatric treatment.
14:32Which he will receive in juvenile detention.
14:35May I put Ted on the stand?
14:40Ted, could you tell us why you walked out of your last group home?
14:46Mr. Whisper told me to, sir.
14:48Hey, can you tell us who Mr. Whisper is?
14:52He would be a water sprite, sir.
14:54Who lives in your head.
14:56Yes, sir.
14:56Thanks.
14:58No further questions.
15:02Ted, do you know what a police officer looks like?
15:07Uh, yes, sir.
15:10He, uh, he wears a brown or a blue uniform.
15:16Sometimes a special hat.
15:19And, of course, a badge and a gun.
15:21That's correct.
15:22Ted, is it right or wrong to hit a police officer?
15:27It's wrong, sir.
15:30It's very, very wrong.
15:32No further questions.
15:33Your Honor, Ted may have problems, but he's absolutely culpable for the assault.
15:38Judge Damson, the facts speak for themselves.
15:40What's your recommendation, Counselor?
15:42He should be in a mental health facility.
15:43As a reward for hitting a cop.
15:45For testing.
15:47We need the psychiatric record to commit him involuntarily.
15:49Why can't he be examined in a detention center?
15:52Please do the examination before sending him there, Your Honor.
16:03Ted Popper shall be placed in another group home until an initial psychiatric exam can be arranged.
16:08I interviewed her.
16:12What's the story?
16:13She said she was kidnapped and taken to Europe of all places.
16:16Part of a pedophile ring.
16:18You believe her?
16:19She gave an incredibly detailed account of her kidnapping and repeated rape.
16:23I want to know if you believe her.
16:27Janine McGregor believes she's her daughter.
16:29That's all that matters here.
16:32Janine McGregor wants to believe that Grace is still alive.
16:35We all agree that we're probably looking at fraud here.
16:39Okay.
16:40I mean, this happened before.
16:41Someone gets hold of a missing person report and impersonation disappeared.
16:45Can't you force someone to give fingerprints or a blood test?
16:48Legally, no.
16:49Not unless we think the girl is going to commit a future crime.
16:52And then we can get a court order for the test.
16:54Stealing $95,000 from a desperate mother isn't a future crime?
16:58She hasn't done that.
16:59Not yet.
17:05Good, good job.
17:12Good job.
17:14What are you doing?
17:15Come on.
17:17Come on.
17:18Good, good boy.
17:19Good boy.
17:20Judge Stanton, this is Nicholas Fallon.
17:39I found your dog, Bart, on the street.
17:42I'm going to tie him to the front rail of your house.
17:47I'll just, uh, um, yeah, call me when you get this message in my office.
17:57Okay, you stay there.
17:58Stay there.
17:59Stay there.
17:59Dad, I just need a couple of signatures.
18:08Rick Stanton was walking his dog this morning.
18:13He had a heart attack.
18:16In critical condition.
18:20I don't think he's going to make it.
18:23Excuse me.
18:25Excuse me.
18:26Excuse me.
18:26Yeah.
18:28You should be offshore.
18:29You are, too.
18:40Good, dog.
18:41Good.
18:43I'm not.
18:49Good, good.
18:50Come on.
18:52Come on.
18:53Come on.
18:53Come on, Doc.
19:02Good. Good, Doc.
19:04Oh, nice.
19:22Listen, no one comes in here ever.
19:25Okay, so you behave yourself.
19:26Don't go in the furniture. No furniture. That's good.
19:38I'm going to get someone to bring you some food and some water,
19:43and we'll find a place for you to live, okay?
19:47Good, Doc.
19:50Okay.
19:52Don't go potty.
19:56The notary is on the way, and once you sign this,
20:04the bank will accept Grace as your daughter and free the funds.
20:09Are you sure you want to do this?
20:11I've heard what some people say about Grace coming home,
20:14but Mr. Fallon, even if it's just for the money, it got her back here.
20:19And you're certain she's your daughter?
20:21She's my Gracie.
20:23She is. Hello, sweetheart.
20:25Did you get some sleep?
20:27Yeah, Mom.
20:28I was just making some tea. Do you want some?
20:30Sure.
20:31Yeah.
20:31So, you're in Amsterdam.
20:43Yeah.
20:50That must have been terrible.
20:52Where'd you live in Amsterdam?
20:53I lived a lot of places.
20:57Usually, they had me locked up in hotel rooms, but I lived all over Europe.
21:04If you need to know.
21:05You know, I visited the doctor that treated you after your car accident.
21:16He has a nice set of x-rays.
21:17He said that you can always see where a bone was fractured, even nine years later.
21:24And when the notary gets here, before you sign this document, he's going to have to fingerprint
21:33you, and they're going to run those fingerprints...
21:35Get out.
21:36Miss McGregor.
21:37Get out of my house.
21:38Miss McGregor, I am sorry.
21:39She's suffered enough.
21:40Get out.
21:40Ted Popper just got kicked out of another group home.
22:01We have to get over to court.
22:02There's an emergency shelter hearing.
22:04What happened?
22:04He was sitting in the corner of his room with a towel over his head.
22:07One of the counselors tried to make him take it off.
22:09And?
22:09He hit him.
22:10He broke his nose.
22:11What about the mother?
22:12I finally got hold of her.
22:14And?
22:15She's coming in, but she doesn't want her son back.
22:26I'm sorry, Mr. Fallon, for yelling.
22:28I'm sorry.
22:28It's okay.
22:30I know you were just being cautious.
22:33What can I help you with?
22:35It's about Grace's trust.
22:37They're giving us some problems.
22:38They, uh, they don't want to give us the money.
22:41Just come here.
22:43Take a seat.
22:44They're legal obligation is to Grace.
22:55Because she's missing, they're legally obliged to investigate.
22:59But I thought that's what the affidavit was for.
23:02No, that's just your word.
23:03And that would be enough if the circumstances weren't so suspicious.
23:06But this form says that they need a heel print for Grace.
23:11Well, but she has the same birthmark and the same scars.
23:14Well, the bank might be thinking that you can tattoo those marks on your body.
23:17Why would she do that?
23:21Mr. McGregory, you listed all of those features on her missing persons report.
23:31You published that information all over the world.
23:33Ask her for the heel print.
23:40If she's your daughter, then it shouldn't be a problem.
23:44Dr. Rosenzweig, to the CCU.
23:50Hey, Rick.
23:53How you feeling?
23:54Oh, my son, uh, wanted me to tell you that he found your dog.
24:00And he wants to know what, uh, what we should do with him.
24:03Feed him twice a day.
24:05Lots of exercise.
24:06Well, I don't think he meant, uh...
24:13I'll tell him.
24:20I, uh...
24:22I just came by, uh, wanted to...
24:25I, uh, tell you a thank you for what you did for Nick.
24:30Very nice.
24:31Well, anyone else would have thrown the book at him.
24:34I know that.
24:34I don't know whether you saw something in him, or whether you were just, um...
24:40Trying to do a favor for a friend, or...
24:43I didn't do him any favors.
24:45Nick doesn't respond real well to authority.
24:50I don't know whether you knew that or not, but, uh...
24:53I do know that if you'd come down with a different sentence...
24:57I don't know.
24:58He may have fallen apart.
25:09Burden.
25:12You're a good man.
25:14Thanks.
25:16You're a great lawyer.
25:18No.
25:19But you could do more.
25:22Excuse me?
25:23You could do more.
25:33Miss Popper, would you consider putting Ted in a psychiatric facility?
25:38He isn't crazy.
25:40He's damaged.
25:42Damaged?
25:43His stepdad, when he was a boy, did some terrible things to him.
25:48He's been strange ever since.
25:50Miss Popper, he hears voices.
25:54I know.
25:55Because of that, I don't think he should be in a place where that kind of behavior's allowed.
25:59Once he's in a mental home, he'll get used to acting like that.
26:03At least on the outside, he knows it's not right.
26:06What do you think they're gonna do to him in a psychiatric facility?
26:08They won't treat him like a normal person.
26:10That's the point.
26:12Plus, they'll keep him as long as they want.
26:15Until he's better.
26:16Well, that could mean forever.
26:20I have no further questions, Your Honor.
26:28Your Honor, I request for the second time that Mr. Popper be given a full psychiatric examination before we make any recommendation.
26:34You have to consider the well-being of the other children in a group home.
26:38So you want to hand it off to the delinquency system, and they'll hand it off to corrections.
26:42And at the end of the day, you'll take this kid who we all know needs treatment and punish him.
26:47Your Honor, we have to make a choice from the available lawful options.
26:51If Ted gets into a delinquency facility, it will take weeks or months for him to get out.
26:56Then he'll have to go through a whole other round of hearings before he gets help.
27:00Your Honor, we see hundreds of kids like this every year.
27:04And what is our solution?
27:07Punishment, definitely.
27:09Treatment, only if it's convenient.
27:12We cannot commit Ted without a psychiatric record or parental consent.
27:17And he's already been rejected by the most restrictive shelter setting available.
27:20I have no choice but to transfer him to a detention facility for juvenile offenders
27:26and make them aware of the suspicions that Mr. Popper suffers from a mental illness.
27:30You want to surround a mentally ill kid who's probably been abused with molesters and drug dealers?
27:35No more than I want to subject children in an adolescent shelter to the outburst of a violence-prone child.
27:40Laurie, wait.
27:47Barry Cohn is the most stubborn, wrong-headed attorney in the entire system.
27:52It's not his fault.
27:53You saw...
27:53No, it's the law. It's not the lawyers.
27:55Oh, please.
27:56No, it's the system, Laurie.
27:57A child doesn't come into court unless he's committed a crime or if he's in need of shelter.
28:01There is no place for a child with mental illness issues.
28:03Do you want to do something about it?
28:05Me?
28:06What time do you get off work?
28:07What? Six.
28:08I'll meet you at your office.
28:09Tonight?
28:10Do you have something more important to do?
28:14Okay, here we go.
28:17All right.
28:18That's it.
28:20This reminds me of when you were a baby.
28:25Well, the place looks different.
28:27Yes.
28:27We took down all the pictures, all the clippings.
28:30We took all of Grace's old stuff, and when she was a little girl, we put it in the crawl space.
28:34It looks good.
28:36I hope it works out for both of you.
28:39All right.
28:39I hope it works out.
28:41Thank you, Mr. Vell.
28:42Good luck with the test.
28:43Thank you, Mr. Vell.

28:52Hospital chaplain to De Niro at the news.
28:57Judge Stanton.
29:00Judge.
29:02Your dog's here.
29:04Bart.
29:05They let me bring him up here to see you.
29:12Hey, Bart.
29:15Hey, boy, how are you?
29:19Oh, I'm sorry.
29:38Mark, I know it's a little bit late, and I apologize,
29:41but I'd really appreciate it if you'd call the mayor for us on this.
29:44And maybe tomorrow you call Dale in the DA's office.
29:47We spoke to him earlier.
29:48He was very receptive to the idea.
29:50Yeah, Dale has a cousin with Asperger's here.
29:52Hello?
29:53He was arrested last year.
29:54Tell him to support him.
29:55Right. Kids who have mental illness issues are twice as likely to have drug problems.
29:58Please come on Thursday. We'll have briefing packets.
30:00Hey, listen, I'm going to fact you about it.
30:01Okay, Mark. Yeah.
30:02Oh, thanks. And please come to the meeting on Thursday.
30:06Thanks.
30:08Oh, it's him.
30:11It's nearly ten o'clock, Laurie.
30:13I don't think we should wake any more people up.
30:14Did you hear Councilwoman Hisserich?
30:16She'd already heard.
30:17Alvin, I think this issue is right.
30:20You've done this before, haven't you?
30:22Yeah.
30:23I phoned back from McGovern, Mondale, and Michael Dukakis.
30:27I chaired the Pittsburgh campaign for nuclear disarmament, and I worked for two years to raise funds to pass the Equal Rights Amendment.
30:34We are 0 for 5.
30:35No, the ERA passed in Pennsylvania.
30:38That's right.
30:38Uh, you want to grab a bite to eat?
30:47I already ate.
30:50Have a drink with you, though.
30:52I'll tell you what.
30:54You drink, I'll eat.
30:56Okay.
30:57Okay.
30:57Get that dog out of here.
31:11Charge the paddles.
31:12200.
31:15Clear.
31:18All right, move it up to 260.
31:21Clear.
31:23300.
31:27All right, put one of these in each inbox, please.
31:46Hey.
31:48How are you?
31:53Well...
31:54I'm not getting off to a real good start today.
32:02Yeah.
32:05Probably the best friend I ever had.
32:08Yeah.
32:10I was lying awake this morning, thinking about, uh, everything.
32:14I, uh, I could hardly breathe.
32:21I don't think I ever gave a lot of thought to the choices I made.
32:27I'm not even real sure I've ever done anything worth a damn.
32:31You built this place?
32:32No, that's...
32:33That's just a firm, Nicholas.
32:35That's a bunch of lawyers trying to make a profit.
32:37That's...
32:38No, you help people.
32:39Well...
32:41You've been wondering about that.
32:42Let me ask you something, Nick.
32:49Hey, sit down.
32:54Tell me this.
32:57When you do your work over there with Alvin...
33:01Don't you feel a little, uh...
33:04A little differently?
33:06Don't you feel a little differently?
33:11How?
33:12How so?
33:13I've been watching you.
33:14You...
33:14You're different.
33:20You know what it's like?
33:21It's like you put...
33:23More of your soul into it.
33:25Not so much of your mind, but your soul.
33:32I don't know.
33:34No?
33:36I've seen it, Nick.
33:39And I think it's because you...
33:41You have a sense that you're...
33:45Being of service.
33:46I realize you're being forced into that, but...
33:51I think that's what it is.
33:55Of service.
33:59I'm going to wonder if...
34:02Everybody ought to do that from time to time, somewhere in their life.
34:06Miss McGregor.
34:21The results from the heel test.
34:23They're unopened.
34:24We took a long walk today.
34:27I told Gracie all the things I wanted to tell her.
34:30How much I love her.
34:33What it was like all those years that she was gone.
34:36How we used to talk about when she would grow up and...
34:42Go to college, become a veterinarian, and get married.
34:49I could tell.
34:52On the way home, I could tell.
34:56That Gracie didn't remember any of it.
35:02Okay.
35:06I'll call the police.
35:27There she is.
35:28Let her go.
35:32They already have mental health courts in five other states.
35:57It's not a new idea.
35:58Just a good one.
35:59We all know kids who fall through the cracks.
36:01Kids who have died waiting for psychiatric treatment.
36:04And we're just saying...
36:04Frame the problem.
36:06Study the existing solutions in other states, and then...
36:08Figure out how to do it here in Pittsburgh.
36:10We've been doing all the talking.
36:11Anybody have any questions?
36:13What can we do to help make this a reality?
36:15Alvin, they believe in us.
36:18People kept asking, when's the first task force meeting...
36:21Offering to do whatever they could to make it happen.
36:23I'm cautiously optimistic.
36:25Screw cautious.
36:26Be recklessly optimistic.
36:27Just for once.
36:29Yeah?
36:30Yeah.
36:30Yeah.
36:30Yeah.
36:30Yeah.
36:30Yeah.
36:30Yeah.
36:30Yeah.
36:32Yeah.
36:32Yeah.
36:34Yeah.
36:34Yeah.
36:36Yeah.
36:37Yeah.
36:38Yeah.
36:40Yeah.
36:42Yeah.
36:44Yeah.
36:45Yeah.
36:46Yeah.
36:47Yeah.
36:48Yeah.
36:50Ah, yeah.
36:51Congressman.
36:52Ah...
36:53Sure, I have a moment.
36:54Ah, of course I'm serious about this.
36:56Sure, I am.
36:57Ah, can you please hold on a second, Congressman?
37:01See you tomorrow.
37:03Ah.
37:04Where are you going?
37:05Home.
37:06I'll call you.
37:07Okay.
37:08Where are you going?
37:09Home.
37:10I'll call you.
37:12Okay.
37:27Hey.
37:30Come in.
37:31So, you find a home for that dog yet?
37:40No, not yet.
37:42It's a beautiful dog.
37:44Yeah.
37:45So, Nicholas, what would you think if I stepped down from the firm?
37:53What?
37:55I'm thinking about the bench.
38:01You want to be a judge?
38:05I don't know.
38:07Hell, I'm getting too old to handle this pace here.
38:11And I think there are a couple of people who could step up and take the ball.
38:22I think you'd make an excellent judge.
38:26Yeah, maybe I'm just thinking out loud.
38:33Yeah, just thinking out loud.
38:39I'll see you tomorrow.
38:41I'll see you tomorrow.
38:42I'll see you tomorrow.
38:47The facts are simple, Your Honor.
38:49Grace McGregor was born January 16th, 1984.
38:54February 9th, 1994, she got off her bus on West End Road.
39:00After that, she was not seen or heard from again.
39:04By Pennsylvania law, her date of death should be February 9th, 2001.
39:11Seven years after her disappearance.
39:14I hereby grant the petition and declare the date of death as February 9th, 2001.
39:21God bless you and your family.
39:33Thank you, Mr. Fallon.
39:35I didn't do anything.
39:37Yeah.
40:04Ted.
40:05Ted.
40:07Ted.
40:08Ted.
40:09It's Laurie and Alvin.
40:18What happened to you, Ted?
40:19Some kids hit me.
40:22They didn't like Mr. Whisper.
40:29Can I go home now?
40:30Ted.
40:32Ted.
40:35As soon as we can arrange it, a doctor is going to come here and ask you some questions.
40:39I don't want to talk to a doctor.
40:41Listen to me, Ted.
40:42He can help you get out of here.
40:45I'll make a report.
40:47As soon as that...
40:48After that, I can go home.
40:49As soon as that happens, we can get you a facility where you can get the help you need.
40:53I don't want that.
40:54I want to go home.
40:55I want to go home.
40:56I want to go home.
40:57I want to go home.
40:58I want to go home.
40:59I want to go home.
41:01I want to go home.
41:06I want to go home.
41:07I want to go home.
41:08I want to go home.
41:10I want to go home.
41:11I want to go home.
41:15We already have a yellow lab at home.
41:18She's three and a half and a really good dog.
41:20We've got three kids, all of them great with animals, and an acre of property.
41:26Well, I'm sure Bart will be very happy with you.
41:29He's a beautiful dog.
41:32Okay, well, his tags are on his collar.
41:35This is his leash.
41:37Barbara, Judge Stanton's secretary, has the number for the vet.
41:41Oh, okay.
41:41And they have Bart's papers.
41:43Great, great.
41:45Hey, hey, Bart, how are you doing?
41:49Okay, okay.
41:51All right, yeah.
41:52All right.
41:56You may want to take this.
41:58Oh, we're set for that.
42:00Well, he really likes this one.
42:01I feel we've got plenty at home.
42:03Come on, Bart, let's go.
42:06Bye, Bart.
42:11Yeah.
42:23Hey.
42:24You know what's tomorrow.
42:26Okay.
42:26Okay.
42:27Dad.
42:28Come in.
42:29I just wanted to say, uh, about Judge Stanton, uh, he...
42:39Oh, son.
42:42I mean, really, thank you for that, but it's, uh...
42:46He was just a good man, you know, a good friend to us, certainly.
42:54Well, have you, uh, met the new judge, Hanley?
42:57Not yet.
42:58Supposed to be a real tough ass.
43:00Yeah, I heard.
43:02Yeah.
43:02Okay.
43:04So, uh, Stanton put your name up for his nomination to the federal bench?
43:08Yeah.
43:08Uh, he called Congressman Walters the day he died.
43:12What do you think?
43:13I don't know.
43:15It's federal, son.
43:16I'm not real sure.
43:18They're looking for a guy like me.
43:20Well, I wouldn't say that.
43:21Well, I've taken a lot from the law.
43:24I'm not so sure I put a lot back into it.
43:27Well, that's not true.
43:29I hear my son.
43:31You have a right to believe differently.
43:33Okay.
43:38What are you doing here?
44:02He's gone, Bart.
44:04He's gone.
44:06He's not coming back.
44:08He's not, he's not coming back.
44:12He's not coming back.
