Promo for Wingerman/ImPortant! and video
[ A courtroom. A small child appears on screen. She has a missing eye and an adorable black and white sheepdog, which she is hugging in the docket as she speaks: ]
When mummy and daddy went away, the church took me in. Lucy is a good angel. He found me a new mummy and daddy and now we get to be a family again. I love Lucy very much.
[ The screen blacks out, then a classical organ arrangement of the music theme to Jeff Winger’s ‘Wingerman: Lawyer at Large’ starts playing. Large white font splashes across the screen, and deep voice movie announcer says: ]
Available now via download: The Trial of the Century. Jeff Winger’s most challenging case yet.
[ A flash to an outside shot of a courthouse, several thousand people with placards milling about on the steps. Their boards read ‘Not Guilty!’ and ‘Angel not Devil!’. Now there’s a close up of what appears to be a high court judge presiding over the courtroom. He proclaims: ]
You have been accused of crimes against humanity, corruption of the innocent, taking advantage of the meek, fratricide and genocide; cosmic negligence to the order of which this court has never seen the like. How do you plead?
[ Another video clip, this time of the small child running into Lucifer’s arms, sobbing hysterically, and Jeff sat beside him. The black screen again, and now the music for ImPortant!, Lucifer’s reality show, is being played in the background while the announcer speaks: ]
This summer, the ultimate devil’s advocate must become THE DEVIL’S ADVOCATE.
[ Jeff is on screen, looking very spiffing. Televised courtroom spiffing. He points at the screen, his voice resonating: ]
OBJECTION!!!11 Your honor, my client’s only crime is loving his father!
[ Cut to an unimpressed judge: ] If you shout objection again Mr. Winger I’m going to have to have you removed from this courtroom.
[ Finally the screen goes black and as the credits roll, a second female announcer says: ] A portion of the profit from every download of this special edition of Wingerman: Lawyer at Large and ImPortant, goes to the Church of the Morningstar Homeless Foundation. Please give generously.
[ The automatic feed gives way to an image of Lucifer sitting at a polished mahogany desk. His hands are steepled in front of him, and the room is well lit by a large, brand new stained glass window that takes up most of the back wall of the office. Large golden wings make up the image, creating the illusion that Lucifer has wings. He doesn’t seem to notice the effect, but you can be sure it’s intentional. ]
So there you have it, a promo for the upcoming episode of our respective shows. I was very impressed with Mr. Winger’s vigor as an attorney. He didn’t give in, even when it seemed like the entire courtroom was against us. I highly recommend him.
[ He taps his nose, then fingerguns at the camera, and the feed clicks off. ]

I have to say, you're a lot more honest and...self aware, about this than your video made you seem.
no subject
[Despite his logic, there's a lack of passion behind his words like he gives very few shits about who does or doesn't watch.]
no subject
[Not the point, he knows, but he can feel the lack of real enthusiasm. It existed better in the fake reality court show promo.]
Do you see yourself as this common man, then? Or in the shoes of them, if you prefer. Most people are easier swayed by heart than by logic. That's just a sort of life fact. I think common men have better time than the elitist, who don't really understand struggle, in a profession like yours.
no subject
Sure, I'd say I represent the common man pretty well. Spent time unemployed, studying at a community college and struggling to pay the bills. I understand the problems that most live through, unlike the trustfund lawyers who have rich daddy's to pay for everything. I figure being a guy people can relate to is a good thing.
no subject
Also...maybe try not to associate with the self-proclaimed devil so much. Just a thought.
[He's just being honest okay, people don't really look at that guy in the greatest light.]

no subject
Do you want me to get you a mirror to preen in, Mr. Winger?
no subject
[Hopefully he's joking. Probably.]
no subject
If Jeff is still there after ten or so seconds, Wells will return with a small mirror and position it in front of the camera. It's...not a good view, but it's a view. He'll wait, enjoy Jeff.]
no subject
Oh. There he is. Hey, good looking, how you doing? Yeah, I'm good.
