L.A. Law1986

[Here at the witness room. Melina and her plaintiff Belinda Collins sitting quietly. Coming from outside, Ms. Wodjack and her two defendants Gordon Reeve and Eric Simms has arrived at the witness room, have a seat, talk, and make the offer]

Melina Paros:
What's your offer?

Ms. Wodjack:
Mr. Collins made 40,000 a year when he was let go. Assuming he remain healthy, he had another 10 years of earnings. Had lost of love and affection, we're rounded up to 500,000. Present value at 385.

Melina Paros:
Belinda?

Belinda Collins:
Okay. On one condition, I want you to go on TV and take responsibility for what you did. I want you to say that what you did was immoral.

Eric Simms:
Mrs. Collins, I can't allow Gordon to do that. Even if he wanted, will be inviting losses from every person who didn't like what we put on the air.

Belinda Collins:
Then I reject your offer.

[Belinda declines the offer. Ms. Wodjack is taking Eric Simms outside and leave. While Melina is outside the witness room, waiting for Belinda, but Gordon Reeve want to owe Belinda an apology of how Gordon feel, ashamed and terrible about what happened to Belinda's late husband Bill Collins]

Gordon Reeve:
Mrs. Collins, I want you to know that, I feel terrible about what happened to your husband, and... if I had to do over it, I wish I'd done something.

Belinda Collins:
Why didn't you say that under oath?

[Belinda is leaving with Melina and Gordon will be alone]
