Anne Mitchell (an actual lawyer) explained that nolo contendere means “I didn’t do it, and I’ll never do it again”.
Even better is the scene in Minority Report where a techno-wonk, encountering a “pre-cog” who can see the future, drops to his knees and says, “I’m sorry for what I’m going to do, and I swear I didn’t do any of it.”
