Francis Hannah:
Isn't it a fact, Mr. Gittes, that you're out on bail, having been arrested at the Green Parrot Bar & Grill?

Cotton Weinberger:
Wait a minute. Your Honor, the witness has been charged, not convicted.

Judge Alexander K. Dettmer:
What's the charge?

Francis Hannah:
The charge?

Judge Alexander K. Dettmer:
Yes. The charge.

Francis Hannah:
Well, that, uh, Mr. Gittes was fondling... the private parts of a vice officer in the Men's Room of the Green Parrot Bar & Grill.

[gasps and laughter fill the court room]

Cotton Weinberger:
Objection, Your Honor.

Judge Alexander K. Dettmer:
I'm with you, Mr. Weinberger. I have no idea what you thought you could do with this kind of evidence, Mr. Hannah. It certainly has no place in my court room. Do yourself a favor. The next time, you be sure you've got a case. That's about it for this hearing.
