And that subversion of ordinary judgment is what's interesting about the play's courtroom setting. You don't find out till the very end the reason for the defendant's trial, and when you do, it barely matters. No matter what he has done, he's no worse than anybody present: They're all pitiable beasts, innocent as lambs and guilty as sin. Mamet's big idea is that those who listen as intently as they judge might learn to perceive both at the same time.
