| 2 | * The end of the original film, when Jurors #8 and #9 tell each other their names before departing company. |
| 3 | --> '''Juror #9''': Hey, what's your name?\ |
| 4 | '''Juror #8''': Davis.\ |
| 5 | '''Juror #9''': My name's [=McCardle=]. ''[pause]'' Well, so long.\ |
| 6 | '''Juror #8''': So long. |
| 7 | * When Juror #7 looks at Juror #3 with as much sadness and pity as everyone else while he's on his rant near the end of the 1997 film. You can tell that he does care about what's happening ''now''. |
| 8 | * After the verdict is reached, and Juror #3 has been left in a wreck after his VillainousBreakdown and HeelRealization, Juror #8 fetches #3's coat and helps him into it. After all the antagonism and vitriol #3 had for #8 through the entire movie, #8 is still willing to extend that minor olive branch, which #3 accepts. |
| 9 | * Juror #6 repeatedly standing up for Juror #9, saying that the older man has earned some respect just because he's older, and thus has been through more than the others have individually. "Guy who talks like that to an old man oughta to get stepped on, you know?" |
| 10 | * One in the original stage play, combined with a TearJerker after #3's VillainousBreakdown. #8 just quietly says, "He's not your boy. He's somebody else. ...Let him live." |
| 11 | ** #4 does it in the 1997 film. |
| 12 | * When it starts raining, Juror #8 and the Foreman work together to close a stuck window, then the Foreman takes a moment to share a memory of a similar storm a few months prior. With the tensions high in the room, and the two still on opposite sides, it really comes across as a peacekeeping moment. |
| 13 | * While in most versions, the jurors show their rejection of Juror #10's bigoted rant by leaving the table and standing scattered around the edges of the room with their backs to him, in the original Studio One production the jurors all leave the table to gather in the corner around Juror #5 (the one most affected by the rant) in solidarity with him against #10. #8 even stands directly beside #5 and can be seen giving him a reassuring smile as the others form a barrier with their backs between #5 and #10. Juror #4's ShutUpHannibal response is also ''much'' more direct and spoken right in #10's face as opposed to being said across the table. It's especially effective considering this version of #5 is even more insecure about his slum background than he'd be in later versions. |
