Mr. Ruby. You have a lost cause, Earl Warren. You don't stand a chance. They feel about you like they do about me, Chief Justice Warren.
I shouldn't hurt your feelings in telling you that.
Chief Justice Warren. That won't hurt my feelings, because I have had some evidence of the feeling that some people have concerning me.
Mr. Ruby. But you are the only one that can save me. I think you can.
Chief Justice Warren. Yes?
Mr. Ruby. But by delaying minutes, you lose the chance. And all I want to do is tell the truth, and that is all.
There was no conspiracy. But by you telling them what you are going to do and how you are going to do it is too late as of this moment.
Chief Justice Warren. You take my word for it and the word of Representative Ford, that we will do this thing at the earliest possible moment, and that it will be done in time. It will be done in time.
Mr. Ruby. Well, you won't ever see me again, I tell you that. And I have lost my family.
Chief Justice Warren. Yes?
