Nice ride but can it get me outta prison?
SAUL GOODMAN (voiceover) Nice ride, but can it get me outta prison?
Saul steps out of a sleek, red sports car, adjusting his suit jacket. He approaches the chain-link fence of a maximum security facility.
Saul: Hey there, stud. Name's Saul Goodman. I'm a lawyer.
The muscular inmate on the other side of the fence looks him up and down.
Inmate: What's this about, Sunshine? You lost?
Saul: No, I'm here to spring you. My client says you're innocent.
Inmate: Save it, pretty boy. I ain't got all day.
Saul smiles, pulling out a briefcase as he approaches the fence.
Saul: Oh, I guarantee you have all day, every day...for the next 25 to life. But not if you hire me. I'm the best in the business.
The inmate scoffs.
Inmate: You? I doubt it. What makes you so special?
Saul leans against the fence, a sly grin on his lips.
Saul: Let me tell you something, my friend. I may not look like much, but I've got skills. I can talk my way out of a paper bag. And I always get my clients off.
He gestures to his car.
Saul: Check out that sweet ride, for starters. Arent you curious how a man like me can afford wheels like that? It's because I'm damn good at what I do. And I can do the same for you.
The inmate furrows his brow, clearly unimpressed.
Inmate: I'm listening. But make it quick, before the guards toss you in the hole with me.
Saul clears his throat, launching into his well-rehearsed sales pitch.
Saul: Well, let's start with the facts. Your case is a joke. No evidence, shaky witnesses. I can poke holes in it like a Gruyère sandwich. And even if by some miracle they do convict you, I'll have you out on appeal faster than you can.
He pauses for dramatic effect.
Saul: But that's not all. I'll charm the jury, schmooze the judge, maybe even flirt with the bailiff if that's what it takes. I've got a silver tongue and a penchant for the dramatic. Trust me, I can get you off scot-free.
The inmate narrows his eyes, clearly unconvinced.
Inmate: And what's the catch? No one does anything for free.
Saul's smile widens.
Saul: Ah, there's always a catch. But I like to think of it as an investment. You pay me, I set you free. Simple as that. And if by some fluke I can't get you acquitted, I'll reduce your sentence to a slap on the wrist. You'll be out in no time, with a whole new lease on life.
