Sam Spade: "Johnny, you can go home once you tell us the truth."
Johnny: "But I've told you the truth. I really have!"Sam Spade: "Now Johnny, we can sit here as long as you like -- we can sit here until hades freezes over. We'll sit here as long as it takes -- we'll just sit here until we get to the bottom of this."
...[long pause]..
Johnny: "O.k. I'll tell you what you want."Sam Spade: "Now, Johnny, that's not the way this game is played. We just want the truth, you know. That's all we're after. Do you understand?"
...[long pause] ...
Johnny: "O.k., o.k. I vote guilty. He's guilty. Now can I go home?"
Jury forewoman: "Good work, Sam. Call the bailiff. Tell him the jury has agreed on its verdict. We can all go home now."
