Juror #3:
[as Juror 8 sets up an experiment to see if the old man could reach his front door in 15 seconds] What do you mean, *you* wanna try it? Why didn't his lawyer bring it up if it's so important?

Juror #5:
Well, maybe he just didn't think about it, huh?

Juror #10:
What do you mean didn't think of it? Do you think the man's an idiot or something? It's an obvious thing!

Juror #5:
Did *you* think of it?

Juror #10:
Listen, smart guy, it don't matter whether I thought of it. He didn't bring it up because he knew it would hurt his case. What do you think of that?

Juror #8:
Maybe he didn't bring it up because it would've meant bullying and badgering a helpless old man. You know that doesn't sit very well with a jury; most lawyers avoid it if they can.

Juror #7:
So what kind of a bum is he, then?

Juror #8:
That's what I've been asking, buddy.
