Summary
Opening Monologue
"It is said that for a nation to survive and flourish, it must become a community of laws. Limits agreed to by its citizens that allow them to live together and work together in peace. To live outside the law is to reject the community. How can humans accept us if we fail to submit to their legal authority? How can we protect them if they turn us away?"
First Appearances
Continuity
In a rare example of continuity in The Goliath Chronicles, Goliath's defense speech at his trial includes footage from "Runaways" and "Broadway Goes to Hollywood".
Inaccuracies
- Since Goliath is successfully arguing that he DOES fall into their criminal jurisdiction, that also means he commits undisputed kidnapping and destruction of public property in front of numerous witnesses.
- Maybe the Gang Leader's confession on tape would have worked... had Goliath not coaxed it out of him. As such the Gang Leader could have appealed and easily won.
- Also, Goliath admitted to crimes on that same tape; he threatened to show New York City a crime wave the likes of which they had never seen. If the court took the Gang Leader at his word on the tape, why not Goliath as well?
- The tape is introduced as "evidence" after the Defense has rested, and also without providing the Prosecution a chance to examine it (really, what Goliath's attorney should be doing is calling for a recess and asking to confer with the Judge and Prosecutor off the record).
- Goliath also goes into the well to do so without getting permission from the Judge and Bailiff. The Bailiff SHOULD be stopping him for the Judge's protection, but in that particular case it's understandable why he'd be reticent.
It's understandable that the new writers didn't have time to familiarize themselves with the show in a time before this very wiki. But there's just no excuse for bad writing.
