Death Is the Fifth Gear (1972)

Jason Evers: Josh Martin

Quotes 

• Josh Martin : Joe, why did you leave the hospital? Are you sure it was wise?

  Joe Mannix : I had to get away from Mel.

  Josh Martin : Mel? He's very upset about this. He's trying to help you.

  Joe Mannix : Help me or trying to make sure he kills me this time?

  Josh Martin : Joe, that's ridiculous. Why would he want to harm you?

  Joe Mannix : That's why I'm here, Josh. You're his lawyer. He's in all kinds of deals. You know his business associates, his personal involvements. There's got to be some connection to me - something he doesn't want me to find out.

  Josh Martin : Joe, you know I can't talk about that.

  Joe Mannix : You've got to.

  Josh Martin : If I were your lawyer, I wouldn't tell him about you, either.

  Joe Mannix : I have to know, Josh!

  Josh Martin : Joe, you walk out of a hospital with wild accusations. You ask me to betray a client's confidence, and you blow up at me, that's...

  Joe Mannix : Insane?

  Josh Martin : I didn't say that. But you're not yourself. Joe, you'll kill yourself this way. Please, go back to the hospital.

  Joe Mannix : And sign my death warrant? No. If I'm going to die, Josh... I'd rather do it on my own.
