Deputy Sacks is nervously babbling about the security measures the police department has in place. He sounds like he's completely aping Lamb, but the performance isn't quite comparable, although that could be due to the presence of his uniform. Keith asks what happens if a card goes missing, and Sacks says Inga has all the codes, so she can issue a new one, but only if you have Level One clearance. Keith compliments Sacks for staying on message so well. "If not for the little perspiration problem, you'd make a great White House press secretary." I hate to disagree with Keith, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Scott McClellan isn't going to be the poster boy for any anti-perspirants any time in the next three years. Keith sums it up: security's tight, and none of the senior staff took the tapes. Sacks nods, but then realizes that he's supposed to be shaking his head. Hee.
Veronica is apologizing to her jury, although I don't know why, since she didn't cast the "guilty" vote. But it's not like it's the first apology of Veronica's I haven't understood this season. C of I bitches that his 200,000 stockholders won't be too pleased that their CEO is missing a meeting with outsourcing contractors in Bangalore. Cap Doofus gets in on the act, saying that the sports fans of Neptune will be complaining that "the mind of Madison Harwell is missing from the airwaves." I was wondering about that too, except for the "from the airwaves" part. A woman who hasn't spoken before this point suggests that they get on with it, and I wish she'd gotten some lines earlier if she was going to be this trenchant. C of I asks the "guilty" voter to come forward, so No-Nonsense Woman languidly raises a hand with a "No problem, big shot. I'm the one trashing your quarterly earnings." Heh. C of I asks if the racial stuff is affecting her vote, a question she unabashedly turns around, so C of I asks her for any reason Aneesa's story is remotely credible. N-NW says that she's never heard of a hooker who "works her ass off at the car wash all day before hitting the streets." Everyone looks stymied by this bit of common sense, so Veronica suggests that they discuss it. Before they do so, perhaps Veronica should drop a little note to the judge suggesting that she double-check the prosecutor's legal credentials. It's probably the speediest way to obtain a mistrial at this point.
