Jed Karey
- Peter Stone: Good men?
- John Conway: What?
- Peter Stone: What most fathers would say: they want their son to grow up to be a good man. Good, bad; that doesn't seem to matter to you.
- John Conway: Of course I want them to be good men.
- Peter Stone: A good man plays sports?
- John Conway: Both my boys made varsity. Teaches teamwork, self-confidence.
- Peter Stone: A good man shoots rabbits?
- John Conway: He sure as hell isn't afraid to. You don't have a boy, do you, Mr. Stone?
- Peter Stone: No, I don't.
- John Conway: You got a lot of nerve criticizing how I raise mine.
- Peter Stone: You mean I've got balls.
- Jed Karey: Objection!
- John Conway: It's okay, Jed. I got this. As a matter of fact, if we weren't in a courtroom, that is exactly what I would have said.
- Peter Stone: As opposed to what?
- John Conway: Excuse me?
- Peter Stone: If I don't have balls, what do I have? I'd have the lifelong shame of a boy who could never live up to his dad's perverse idea of manhood, isn't that right?
- Jed Karey: Your Honor!
- Judge Karyn Blake: Mr. Stone.
- Peter Stone: I'd be a little girl, wouldn't I, Mr. Conway? And there's nothing in the world worse than that, is there?
- Jed Karey: You have got to be kidding me. My wife's yoga pants don't stretch this much.
- Peter Stone: I'm just following the statute, Mr. Karey.
- John Conway: How was I negligent? My guns were locked up.
- Peter Stone: But your son wasn't.
- John Conway: What the hell is he talking about?
- Peter Stone: Think of it this way, Mr. Conway: pit bulls are actually very good pets. It's their owners that turn them into killers.
- John Conway: You think I made Sam walk into that school and start shooting?
- Peter Stone: I think that A, you failed to perceive a substantial and unjustifiable risk that he would harm others. And B, such a failure constitutes a gross deviation from the standard of care that a reasonable person would observe, under the circumstances. You put them together, and what have you got? C: criminally negligent homicide.
- John Conway: Is he saying I didn't bring my boy up right?
- Jed Karey: It's a snowflake defense, Johnny. "Daddy made me do it." Come on.
- [to Peter, as they stand to leave]
- Jed Karey: I thought you were better than this.
