A scene from Striptease 1996
Judge Fingerhut

Always considering the best interests and the welfare and well being of the child. Therefore, you may make visitations to your daughter every other week, and on Christmas Eve, and, of course, on Easter Sunday when you're wearing your pretty little Easter outfits.

Erin Grant

Your Honor, my ex-husband is addicted to pills, and he's a thief! Because of his arrest record, I just lost my job as secretary for the FBI!

Fingerhut

He was the finest high school tailback I ever saw. Of course, he's had his run-ins with the law, but he's made his accommodations with the authorities.

Erin

Your Honor, being an informant for the Dade County Vice Squad hardly qualifies him to raise a seven-year-old child!

Fingerhut

Neither does being a mother without a job!

Erin

But I lost it because of him!

Fingerhut

Little lady, my decision is final.
