Finally, Juror #8 helps convince some of the last holdouts by showing them that the other key witness was almost certainly not wearing her glasses when she allegedly saw the boy kill his father.The other jurors get ready to jump at him, but he's only pretending for the sake of showing how the kid could have stabbed his father. At one point, the angry Juror #3 picks up the knife on the table and pretends to stab Juror #8 with it.While he argues, more and more jurors come around to his way of looking at the case. Juror #8 takes another chunk out of the case by physically showing how one of the key witnesses (an old man) could not have possibly moved fast enough to see the defendant running from the murder scene. ![]() The other jurors insist that this doesn't prove anything, though. But Juror #8 blows this theory out of the water by reaching into his pocket and pulling out the exact same knife, which he bought for six bucks at a nearby store. One of the biggest pieces of evidence against the defendant is the uniqueness of the knife he apparently used to kill his father.The old Juror #9 has changed his mind, and now the room has to deal with two men voting Not Guilty. The vote goes around the room and this time, only ten vote for Guilty. Eventually, Juror #8 gives up and says that he'll go with a Guilty verdict if all eleven other jurors vote Guilty again.But the longer he talks, the more the men realize that he's trying to convince them to change their minds. Juror #8 says he just wants to talk about the case before sending the defendant off to the electric chair.The verdict has to be unanimous, so the men all sigh and try to convince Juror #8 why he's wrong. ![]() Eleven of them vote Guilty, and Juror #8 is the only person who votes Not Guilty.
