Rae Allen: Judge Betty Small

Quotes 

• [Carol and her mother have shamelessly perjured against Jodie at the custody hearing] 

  Jodie : What do these notes mean we've been taking? What good are they? What good are these law books, for god's sakes? Nobody tells the truth around here! I mean am I going mad, or what?

  Judge Small : Restrain him! Restrain him, please.

  [the bailiffs grab Jodie] 

  Jodie : Why don't you just tar and feather me, for god's sakes.

  Judge Small : Mr. Dallas, one more word out of you and I am gonna hold you in contempt!

  Jodie : Only one more word? I have plenty of more words, your honor! How about mockery and disgrace?

  [the bailiffs start to drag Jodie out] 

  Jodie : Because I've been hearing these words since this travesty began!
