Quote #10

JUROR #7: Supposin' we take five minutes? So what? Let's take an hour. The ball game doesn't start till eight o'clock.

Juror #7 is willing to have a little chat about the verdict, but only because he still thinks he'll get out of the jury room in time for his ballgame. The closer he gets to the ballgame, the more he decides that he's willing to give whatever verdict will get him out of the courthouse the quickest. In other words, he's more worried about setting himself free than the defendant's fate.
