Juror #8:
[answering Juror #4's remark about where the father's body was found] We're not, unless somebody else wants to; but *I'd* like to find out if an old man who drags one foot when he walks, 'cause he had a stroke last year, could get from his bedroom to his front door in 15 seconds.

Juror #3:
He said 20 seconds.

Juror #8:
[looks at him] He said fifteen!

Juror #3:
He said twenty seconds! What are you tryin' to distort...

Juror #11:
He said fifteen.

Juror #3:
[pause, then shouts] How does he know how long fifteen seconds is? You can't judge a thing like that!

Juror #9:
He said fifteen seconds. He was very positive about it!

Juror #3:
He was an old man! Half the time he was confused! How could he be positive about anything?

[stops, realizing what he's just admitted]
