• Benny Colon : Now, bear with me. I'm gonna show you three pictures that tell a story. Okay? Here we go. Now, as you can see, these kids are getting bullied. Then one of them fights back. Here they are in the principal's office. And here's the bully, nursing his black eye. Okay, now, as a show of hands, what was the color shirt of the kid who confronted the bully? Was it a blue shirt? Okay, well, let's take a look, see if we're right. If you all guessed blue, you were wrong. The kid who confronted the bully was wearing the red shirt. See, I never specified which kid confronted the bully. You all just assumed it was the boy. Now, come on, I admit I failed the test, too. See, it's hard to imagine a girl being the hero of the story. Just like it's hard to imagine Captain Mathison being the hero of the one in this court. But she is. She doesn't deserve to be punished for our failings. She deserves to be thanked for the lives that she saved. We need to find her not guilty.

• Benny Colon : Captain Mathison, what were you thinking when the plane lost power in the wind shear?

  Attorney Dworkin : Objection. That is not the NTSB's video.

  Benny Colon : Your Honor, the video has been modified in one specific way, and that is to show the jury what was on the ground.

  Judge Edith Rothstein : I'll allow it, but only for that reason. Watch your step, Mr.Colon.

  Captain Taylor Mathison : I don't remember, actually, due to head trauma from the crash.

  Benny Colon : You flew a simulation earlier that replicated the conditions. And you performed the same maneuver. Why?

  Captain Taylor Mathison : It was the only way to get a few more seconds flight out of the plane.

  Benny Colon : But it wasn't protocol. Even your copilot asked what you were doing.

  Captain Taylor Mathison : It would have taken too long to explain. He was never a military pilot. Anyway, there was nothing for him to do. I was in full command of the aircraft.

  Benny Colon : Why was it important for the plane to stay in the air a few extra seconds?

  Captain Taylor Mathison : To veer the plane to an unpopulated area. If I couldn't save the lives of the people on board, at least I could save lives on the ground.
