DA: Some golden ben-wa balls were found in your apartment.

You: Yes, they were.

DA: And they didn't belong to you.

You: No.

DA: You're a guy.

You: Yes.

DA: You don't use ben-wa balls.

You: No.

DA: They might look pretty valuable.

You: I guess.

DA: And Mrs. Scratcher had a pair that went missing the very night we're talking about.

You: That's what she said. I never saw hers.

DA: So what about the pair in your apartment?

You: They were Whitley's.

DA: They were Whitley's?

You: Right.

DA: So Whitley just happened to have a pair of ben-wa balls the same color as Ovia's?

You: Right.

DA: Where you you suppose she got them?

You: Well, there's only one sex shop in town. Whitley tells me she's seen about half the women in town go in there...

DA: (hastily) Now you work for Telethrust.

You: Yes, I do.

DA: And you're the only Telethrust employee in this town.

You: Right. I do my work remotely, so it doesn't matter where I am, and I came out here.

DA: And you just happened to pick this town, out of all the towns there are?

You: Right.

DA: And you just happened to work for the company that serves Hayden Dickman, the famous porn fence?

You: As far as I know - I never heard of him before.

DA: So you've never heard of one of your company's biggest customers?

You: I don't know if he's big or not.

DA: And it's your testimony today that you didn't walk out of that house with anything but the clothes you were standing in?

You: That's right.

DA: And you didn't take the tape or the spurs or the balls out of the playroom?

You: Right.

DA: Now if you get convicted here, you know you could be doing some time?

You: Yes. I'd rather not.

DA: And you know some pretty bad things could happen to you in jail, if this jury doesn't believe you? [Is that a significant look she's giving you?]

You: Yes, I suppose they can.

DA: I mean, a new guy in our state facilities, he might not feel welcome, or he might feel all too welcome.

You: I guess.

DA: Might even be next year's prom queen! [She seems to be enjoying this way too much.]

You: Could be.

DA: Might even come out walking funny.

You: So they say.

DA: And you'd rather not have that happen.

You: True.

DA: You're up here testifying now because you don't wanna go in there.

You: (suspiciously) I guess you could put it that way...

DA: (Triumphantly) So why should these jurors believe ANYTHING you say?

Decision time! Whitley ran out right when you needed her, Doc's been half there and half not all day, and now it seems your fate's in your own hands.

What to do?
