Previously onBull...Hey, there, Dr. Bull.
BULL: Why, Diana Lindsay.
DIANA: You miss me?
I didn't know you did criminal law.You should know by now
I am full of surprises.
MARISSA: Diana's gonna be here Saturday morning
and she sounds pretty damned excited to me.
Excellent.Are you all right? You sound strange.
I saw Izzy at the funeral.
I'm sorry about your dad.
I didn't know what to do.
MARISSA: What did you want to do?
BULL: I wanted to save her.
IZZY: I'm pregnant,
you big Bull.
Hey, Greta.Hey.
Is there any chance you can walk Sunshine for me this afternoon?
Oh, shoot, this afternoon is tough.
I have some people coming for book club.
No problem. I'll figure it out.
I-Is everything okay?
There's just something I need to do,
and the kids have after-school stuff,
and Frederick...
well... Frederick has plans to go sleep with some whore.
Oh, my God, Greta, I'm so sorry.
I just found out.
But I think he's been seeing her for a while.
[exhales] That's awful.
I'm going to go confront her.
That's why I need someone to walk Sunshine.
Are you really sure you want to do that?
Maybe-maybe take a beat.
I need that woman to look me in the face.
See that I am a real person.
That she is hurting me, hurting my family.
Okay. I'll walk Sunshine.
Don't worry.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
[siren wailing]
[ragged exhale]
[camera shutter clicks]
OFFICER: The victim's name is Greta Page.
43 years old. Looks like she was stabbed,
but we haven't located the weapon.
This her home?
Vacation home, yeah.
Who's that?
OFFICER:Vic's husband. Frederick Page.
Said he found her like this.
Mr. Page.
Detective Fletcher.
I'm very sorry for your loss.
I was told this is your vacation home.
Did anyone know you and your wife would be here today?
Greta wasn't supposed to be here.
What do you mean?
I might as well just tell you.
I've been having an affair.
I was supposed to meet her, here.
But instead...
...I found my wife.
Like that.
I'm gonna need the name of this woman.
Come on. Where are you?
Aren't you supposed
to be on vacation?[phone ringing]
Yeah. We don't fly out till tonight.
What the heck? My passport was right here last night.
It was here and it's gone now!
You gonna get that?
No, I'm officially off the clock.
Where are you, you government document?
It's got to be here somewhere.
Aha.
Uh, nice filing system.Oh! Nice.
Eagle eye.
Izzy would've killed me.For Pete's sake.
Trial Analysis Corporation.
[mouthing]Marissa Morgan speaking.
Oh, Diana, hi.
Oh, it's Diana Lindsay.
She's at Rikers.
[whispers]: I cannot take another case right now.
Tell her I'll be back in two weeks.
Well, unfortunately, Bull is...
Oh, my God.
What? What is it?
Diana's been arrested. For murder.
[lock buzzes]
[laughs softly]
When I moved to New York, I...
I always thought I'd run into you in the courtroom.
I... never thought it'd be here.
You always did know
the classiest joints.
You okay?
[quietly]: Yeah.
Hey.[bang on door]
GUARD: No touching.
[exhales]
Thank you for coming.
Of course.
So, what happened?
Okay, um...
I've been seeing this guy Frederick about a year now.
And, uh... Well, we work at the same firm.
[laughs softly]
Well, he's married.
But he swore
that his marriage was over.
That his wife is crazy and she had a drinking problem
and they were only staying together for the kids.
[scoffs] Clearly, I have terrible taste in men.
Well, I could have told you that years ago.
Anyway...
They found his wife dead
and I was arrested.
What do you think the police have on you?
[sighs]
I was with her, right before she died.
I was meeting Frederick at his weekend place,
and I got there before him, but you know, I have a key, so...
She was there, waiting on me.
So she knew you were coming?
I mean, I guess she found out about us and...
well, apparently, it was news to her that her marriage was over
because that woman just flipped out on me.
Flipped out? You mean she attacked you?
No.
Well, uh, she did grab my arm at one point
to keep me from leaving, but...
yeah, mostly, she was just yelling at me.
I tried to talk to her, but...
she wouldn't listen, so... [scoffs]
finally, I just, I got myself out of there.
And where did you go next?
I went home. I got drunk.
Felt like a fool for believing
any of Frederick's lies.
I woke up with the police pounding at my door.
So, you said you were
supposed to meet Frederick
at the house?Yeah.
You think he's capable of doing this?
Killing someone?
No. No, absolutely not.
He's capable of deception.
He's a liar.I just don't see it.
Frederick, he might be a liar, but he is not a violent person.
Are you in love with him?
Somehow that question seems a little unfair.
It goes to motive. You know that.
No. I'm not in love with him.
[inhales sharply]
I've only been in love once in my life,
and when he ghosted me
and I found out that he got back together with his ex-wife
and had a baby, I didn't murder anyone.
I'm sorry.
[exhales] I...
could've handled all that better.
Jason, just get me out of here.
IZZY: [gasps] Thank God, you're home.
I was starting to worry we were gonna miss our flight.
Okay, um, you grab the bags
and I will grab Astrid and I'll meet you downstairs.
Izzy, I'm sorry, there's a problem.[gasps]
You lost your passport, didn't you?
It's work.
Jason, no, you promised.
I know. You said we were gonna go on this trip
no matter what came up.
That's true, but I just never imagined...You said that we deserved
a big, fat vacation after the year that we've had.
You said we'd be basking in the sun and...
Diana Lindsay was arrested for murder.
What?Diana Lindsay
is this lawyer I used to date.
No, I know who Diana is.
She was arrested for murder?
Yes.
Who are they saying she murdered?
Her boyfriend's wife.
Let me get this straight.
You want to cancel our vacation
so that you can defend your ex-girlfriend
for murdering her lover's wife?
I know it's not ideal...Why do youhave to defend her?
Diana's a lawyer, surely she knows other firms.
Because I know what it feels like to be wrongly accused.
Remember how hard it was for me to find someone I trusted?
Of course I remember. I haven't forgotten
a single second of that damn trial,
which is why I need a vacation.
That's why we need a vacation.
I know.
Okay.
I won't take this case if you don't want me to.
Mm-mm, no.
Don't do that to me. Don't put this on me.
I'm not gonna ask you not to represent her.
You know, you do whatever you feel that you need to do.
Just doesn't mean I have to be happy about it.
[sighs]
♪
Have a good day.You, too.
Everything okay?
We're supposed to be on a beach in Saint Bart's,
instead we're here, so no.Right.
Well, let's make it worth it.
I'll gather the troops.
TAYLOR: The M.E. puts Greta Page's time of death
between 2:30 and 3:30 p.m.
Ring camera footage shows Greta arriving at the house at 2:01.
Diana arrived at 2:23 and left about 20 minutes later at 2:42.
Then Frederick Page showed up at 3:17.
He called 911 just five minutes later.
Well, five minutes is tight, but it's enough time
to kill his wife and make a phone call.
Yeah, that's possible, but what if
it was a-a burglary gone wrong?
Half an hour passes
between the time that Diana left the house
and Frederick arrived there.
Maybe somebody walked in the back door.
DANNY: I don't think so.
The house backs up to the ocean.
There's no security camera in the back,
but the neighbors on both sides
have cameras.
No one crossed their beaches at that time.
So it looks like there were only two people
who could've killed Greta.
Diana or Frederick.
Well, then, it was Frederick.
So, what about the M.E.'s report?
Is there anything about this killer
being taller than Diana, or left-handed,
because Diana said Frederick's left-handed.
TAYLOR: No.
But there was some DNA evidence
in the police report.
Greta's blood was found on Diana's jacket.
BULL: Well, Diana said that Greta grabbed
her arm at one point.
Maybe she had a cut on her hand.CHUNK: That's possible,
but convincing a jury of that, not so sure.
Did they get anything off the murder weapon?
Uh, no. The police haven't found one yet,
but a knife consistent
with Greta's stab wounds
is missing from a set in the kitchen.
The knife block
has Diana's fingerprints all over it.
But none of Frederick's.BULL: Well, okay.
Maybe Diana's the one who does all the cooking
when they're at the house.
Or maybe Frederick grabbed the knife
off the counter.
All I'm hearing is evidence
against Diana.
I'd like to hear some evidence against Frederick.
We are working on it, Bull.
We have to identify the weaknesses in our own case.
You're right.
But just so we're clear, I know Diana.
She did not murder anyone.
[phone vibrating]
A new A.D.A. was just assigned to the case.
Who is it?
How did this happen?
I had a craving for orange chicken.
I'm not proud of it, but it's not that complicated.
You knew that I'm representing Diana Lindsay. What...
Look, the A.D.A. handling the case
had emergency gallbladder surgery today.
The D.A. himself asked me to step in.
Look, this case is very personal to TAC.
We've all worked with Diana and she's very important
to Bull.This is a big
murder case.
It is a major career opportunity for me.
[sighs]Look, I-I wouldn't have
even considered taking on the case
if I didn't think our relationship could handle it.
It's just work.
We'll leave it in the courtroom, I promise.
[exhales] Okay, fine.
But we're gonna have to be very careful
about maintaining boundaries.
Fine. That's fine.
Oh. Wait, does this mean I can't call you my boo
in front of the jury?
Is that a... It's a no? Yeah.
Hey, uh, do you have a minute?
Our first witness is about to take the stand.
Uh, but I've got a minute.
[sighs]
Um...
I don't want to put you in an awkward position.
But, um, I know
that Jason and Diana have a past.
And normally, I'm all for just, like,
letting the past stay in the past, but this one...
[sighs] this one just isn't.
I'm sure this can't be easy for you.
Well, I mean, you saw them when they were together.
Was he in love with her?
Honestly, I don't know.
But I do know
he loves you.
You two...
fit like a glove.
Mm, nothing sexier than a glove.
[knocking on door]TAYLOR: Sorry to interrupt.
Uh, Rob just called Frederick Page to the stand. You coming?
[chuckles]: Go. I'm fine.
If I have learned anything this year,
it's that, sometimes, it's okay not to be fine.
Hmm.
Frederick Page, do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth, so help you God?
I do.
BULL: Whatever Frederick says today,
you can't react.
It's not my first rodeo, Jason.
Well, it's your first rodeo as the accused,
and it's a lot harder than you think.
ROB: I want to take you back to the day
that you found your wife Greta dead at your beach house.
Now, you hadn't planned on meeting Greta there
that afternoon, had you?
No. Uh...
I had plans to meet someone else.
And who was that?
Diana Lindsay.The defendant?
FREDERICK: Yes.Had you spoken to the defendant
on your way to the house?
Yes, I-I was running late,
so I-I called to let her know.
But when she answered the phone,
she was angry.
She said that Greta was at the beach house
and that she had ambushed her.
ROB: Did she say anything else?
Yes.
She said, "Things got ugly,
and now it's your mess to clean up."
CHUNK: Objection, Your Honor.
This is blatant hearsay.
It falls under several hearsay exceptions, Your Honor.
Statement against penal interest,
excited utterance.
I could go on.
LEAVY:No need.
Overruled.
ROB: After the defendant said
this was your mess to clean up, you arrived
at your beach house to find
your wife Greta brutally stabbed to death.
Is that correct?
Yes.
No further questions.
Mr. Page,
you were having an affair with Diana Lindsay, is that correct?
Yes.And did you tell
your wife that you were sleeping with Ms. Lindsay?
No.
CHUNK: So you lied to her?
Yes.
So you're a liar?
Yes.
So we only have the word of a liar
that your wife was already dead
when you got there?
FREDERICK: But she was. She was...
Or maybe, when you got there,
she was furious.
Did she threaten to leave you, Mr. Page?
Take your kids? Take your money?
No. That's not what happened.
Did she threaten to tell the law firm that you were
having an affair with a colleague?
And you had to stop her,
and so you stabbed her to death?
Isn't that what happened, Mr. Page?
Objection. Inflammatory.
Badgering the witness.
I'm sure you could go on.
I withdraw the question, Your Honor.
And I'm done with this witness.
REPORTER: There she is!
Diana, Diana, can we get a quote?
Over here, over here.No comment, please.
Did you kill your lover's wife?
Diana, what did you do with...No comment.
Did Greta Page threaten to expose your affair at your law firm?
BULL: No comment.
Have you considered a guilty plea?
Diana, are you still sleeping with Dr. Jason Bull?
Can you comment?
[sighs]
Hey.
[exhales]
I am so sorry.
Do you have any idea how embarrassing this is?
I should've been ahead of this.
Yeah, you should've,
but when it comes to Diana,
your judgment is clearly off.
Off?
Yeah, off.
You're so sure she's innocent,
but Diana's clearly capable of deception.
Look, I know you're upset about this picture...
She's been having an affair for a year.
God knows what else she's hiding.
Are you worried that Diana is snowing me?
Or are you afraid of something else?
Well, should I be afraid of something else?
I can't believe I even have to say this,
but I would never be unfaithful to you.
All I want to do
is represent Diana.
You don't want to represent her.
You want to save her.
ROB: You never told me
about Bull and Diana.
I told you that she was very important to Bull.
You failed to mention why.
That was some pretty good dirt
you kept from me, Chester, and you know it.
No. We agreed that we were gonna keep things professional.
That means no dirt.
Okay. Yeah.
Fine. If we're gonna be all professional,
then I have an updated witness list for you.
Who's Dr. Audrey Birdge?
Oh, that's your job to figure that out.
[laughs]: Oh...
My name is Dr. Audrey Birdge.
I'm a forensic pathologist, more commonly known
as a medical examiner.
And do you have any specific area of expertise?
AUDREY: My training includes a specialization
in hepatology, which is diseases of the liver.
ROB: Dr. Birdge, how long
would it take someone to bleed to death
from a stab wound to the liver?
If a healthy person was stabbed
at the same depth as Greta Page's cut,
it would take them several hours to bleed out.
And was Greta Page a relatively healthy person?
I'm afraid not. Her liver showed signs
of advanced cirrhosis,
which is often caused by heavy drinking.
Cirrhosis prevents the blood from clotting,
which makes exsanguination much faster.
So how long would it have taken for Greta Page to bleed out?
Roughly 30 to 60 minutes.
ROB: In your expert opinion...
I don't think I like where this is going.
...could have bled to death in less than 30 minutes?
It's extremely unlikely.
What about less than 20 minutes?
AUDREY: No.
I don't believe that's possible.
Yeah, I definitely don't like it.
It's been previously established
that the paramedics arrived and pronounced Greta dead
a mere 11 minutes
after Frederick
got to the house, so are you saying that even
if Frederick had stabbed Greta
the second he arrived at the house,
uh, she would have still been alive
by the time the paramedics arrived?
Yes. She could not have bled out that quickly.
Meaning that Frederick Page could not
have killed Greta?Correct.
TAYLOR: So,
if Frederick didn't kill Greta, then...
At least I know I wasn't sleeping with a murderer.
Silver linings.
Well, here's the thing we know for sure.
Diana didn't do this.
So who did?
Well, let's start from the beginning.
Were we too quick to reject the idea
of someone coming in through the back?
There's no security camera out there.
DANNY: Well, like I said before,
they would've had to walk up the beach.
The neighbors
on both sides have cameras
that capture the beaches.
Well, they could've come from the water by boat.
Walked straight up to the Pages' house.
TAYLOR:I watched the neighbors' beach footage.
I didn't see a boat, and between all of the cameras,
I'm pretty sure you can see the full shoreline
in back of the Pages' house.
Pretty sure or positive?
Y'all excuse me?
I need to use the restroom.
Okay, we need to point the finger at someone else.
So find me a someone
and a somehow.
Or that jury is gonna have
no problem saying Diana is guilty.
And until we do?
What?We're up tomorrow, Bull,
and right now I don't have anyone to call as a witness.
Well, then, find us a way to get a continuance.
[water running]
[faucet squeaks]
[sniffles]
Hey.
I just want to apologize to you.
I know that you and Jason
were supposed to be on vacation and...
[laughs softly]
well, this isn't a vacation.
It happens.
Jason is really good at getting people out of trouble.
Lord knows I need that.
[coughing][water splashing]
Are you okay?
[coughing]
Diana? Can I, can I get you anything?
[toilet flushes]
No.
I'm fine.
It's just nerves, that's all.
Never been accused of murder before.
Yeah, I used to throw up all the time, too.
When... When I was pregnant.
Are you...?
[softly]: Yeah.
Ain't that a kick in the pants?
Yeah.
How long have you known?
I found out the day before Greta was killed.
Did you tell Frederick?
No.
[exhales]
I didn't know what I wanted to do. I...
I didn't know if I was even gonna keep the baby.
I just...
And then this happened. I...
Diana, you should have told me this right away.
I know.I asked you
if you were serious about him and you said no.
You weren't.I wasn't.
Do you know how this is gonna look to a jury when
they find out that you're carrying his baby?
Yes.They're gonna think
you killed his wife so that you could have the father
of the baby all to yourself.I know.
Why wouldn't you tell me?
Because then it would be real!
And I...
I can't...
[exhales]
I can't think about having a baby right now
or I'm just gonna lose it, okay?
I always thought if...
...I found out I was pregnant, it would be a happy thing.
You know?
I could just tell the father and we'd be so excited together.
But this is...
Did you kill her?
How could you ask me that, Jason? You know me.
Maybe that's the problem.
Izzy says I don't see things clearly when it comes to you.
What are you saying?
You told me you used to love me.
And I loved you, too.
Maybe that's why
I don't want to believe you could have done this.
Jason.So...
if I'm gonna defend you,
you have to tell me the whole truth.
I didn't kill Greta Page.
CHUNK: All I'm asking for
is a short continuance to pursue a new lead, Your Honor.
Three, four days, tops.Your Honor,
as my esteemed colleague is well aware,
I have another trial on the docket next week. A continuance
would cause a major conflict.
Should an innocent woman get convicted
to suit my esteemed colleague's calendar?
ROB: That's clearly not what I'm saying.
Maybe you shouldn't have taken this case
if your schedule was so tight.
Gentlemen, I have a dinner reservation,
so let's wrap this up.
Mr. Palmer,
I'll grant you a continuance.
Thank you, Your Honor.
For one day.
That's it.
So you're welcome, Mr. Jones.
Thank you, Your Honor.
I thought you said you were okay with me taking this case.
I am okay with it.Then what's with the dig
about how I shouldn't have taken the case?
I was making an argument to get a continuance.
Whoa...
You don't have a new lead, do you?
Yes, I do.Uh-uh.
Your case is tanking and you're trying to buy time.
My case isn't tanking and I have a lead.
A big lead.You're creasing.
What?
When you get stressed, you get this...
adorable little crease
right there, right between your eyebrows.I don't have a...
Right now, you are creasing.
No, I don't. This is... It's my face.
It's what I look like all the time. It's my face!Hmm.
Well, the mirror and I respectfully disagree.
Look...
Are we gonna be okay?
When I win?We'll never know,
'cause you're not gonna win.
Have fun with your "big lead."
I will.
Hey.
I didn't think you'd be up.
What you doing?
Uh, just thinking.
Ah.
Well, I suppose you know that...
...you were right.
Diana was... hiding something from me.
I feel sorry for her,
being pregnant on her own, at a time like this.
Yeah. I think she's terrified.
You were right about the other thing, too.
What other thing?
Part of me did...
want to save Diana.
The truth is, I ended things abruptly
when you and I got back together.
And there were unresolved feelings?
Yes.
And I justified taking her case because I knew that I...
would never cross a line with her.
You're the only woman I want to be with.
But it was not fair of me to...
put you in that position,
make you worry.
I wasn't even really worried about you.
Or... even Diana. I...
[sighs]
You know, when I was pregnant with Astrid,
things weren't exactly on the up and up either.
I was... married to Michael.
I was unfaithful.
But you and I were married before...
I don't think Michael would appreciate the difference.
I just-- I...
I sometimes feel like something's coming to me.
Punishment for my sins.
I don't think the world really works like that.
[sighs]People don't get what they deserve, good or bad.
Well... [scoffs]
you're not Catholic.
That's true.
Well, if you want to bring God into this,
all you have to do is look at our...
beautiful daughter to know the Almighty
is just fine with our shenanigans.
"Shenanigans"?
Yes. That's what the kids are calling it these days.
I would never want to mess up what we have.
Me neither.
And for what it's worth, I...
I really hope you can save Diana.
Me, too.
Veronica Davis?
Yes?
My name's Danny James. I'm an investigator working on behalf
of the woman accused of killing Greta Page.
Not interested.
I just have a few questions.No.
You're gonna try and pin this on me.
Why would you say that?You wouldn't be here
if you didn't already know that Greta Page ruined my life.
But, sorry,
I didn't kill her.Well, maybe you can just help me
understand Greta a little better.
I heard that she got you fired
after you kicked her daughter off the volleyball team.
That must'vesucked.
"Sucked"?
I almost went to jail.
Jail? Why?
[scoffs]
I guess you didn't do your homework.
Well, not well enough, I guess.
Are you gonna educate me
or should I talk to your boss?
I'm sure you wouldn't be working here
if you had an easy time getting a job.
I kicked Greta Page's kid off of the team
because she was late.
Every day.
And that woman went
ballistic.
She demanded the school fire me, but...
school backed me up.
Next thing I know, I'm getting pulled over
in the school parking lot because of an anonymous tip,
and the cops found cocaine in my car.
So you think Greta planted the drugs?
I think that psycho
would do whatever it takes to get what she wants.
Do we know for sure that Greta really did that?
Because planting drugs on someone
for kicking your kid off the volleyball team is--
I-I... I don't even know what that is.
Frederick always said his wife could be vindictive.
BULL:Doesn't matter whether Greta really did it.
Veronica Davis thinks she did it, which gives her motive.
We can put her in front of the jury as an alternate suspect.
Yeah, that's not gonna go so well for us.
To avoid jail time,
Veronica's been doing a court-ordered sobriety program.
She was there at the time of the murder.
So the suspect list is down to me again.
Pretty much.
Maybe that's the point.DIANA: How so?
Well, you've always been the obvious suspect here.
Right? So maybe
Greta wanted it that way.
Maybe she framed you the way
she framed that coach.
She grabbed you by the arm
maybe to put blood on you.
[chuckles softly]
You think that woman hated me so much
that she'd be willing to die to set me up?
Maybe she didn't plan on dying.
Maybe she just wanted to wound herself,
blame you and then he goes running back to her.
That seems pretty complicated.
I mean, didn't Greta tell her neighbor
that she had just found out
about Frederick's affair that day?
Actually, she didn't.
When I was examining Greta's devices,
I discovered that she spoofed
Frederick's phone last summer.
She'd seen all of his texts.
She knew about the affair for months.
So why lie to your neighbor,
unless you're planning something?
DANNY: I kind of see
a big problem with this whole theory.
The knife.
How does a dead woman dispose of her own murder weapon?
BULL:Well, if she planned this in advance,
then she would've planned
a hiding place in advance.
A place the police would not think of searching.
Maybe you can...I'll head to the house and start searching.
Okay. And, you know, we don't have a lot of time,
so...I'll go, too.
Thank you.
Don't thank us yet.
Searched the patio high and low.
That knife is not out there.
I really wanted it to be...
hidden inside Slicing & Dicing with Jimmy.
Because of the title?
Because of the title.
It was the last one on the shelf.
Well, the knife's either in the patio or the kitchen.
Those are the only two places they found Greta's blood.
Or Diana walked out with it and dumped it in the ocean.
We're not going there.
Did you check the dishwasher?
Right when I got here.
Good. That would've been embarrassing.
Look at how happy they look in their pictures.
It's hard to believe their marriage is so terrible.
People are always more messed up than you think.
That's what keeps us employed.
[chuckles]: Yeah.
You ever wish you were a children's librarian?
Taylor.
I'm not gonna quit or anything.
No, check this out.
Maybe this is how Greta got rid of the knife.
You think she used her son
to get rid of the knife? That's dark.
No. Look.
The science fair project.
This kid used a weather balloon
to launch a camera into outer space.
Now, a knife is much lighter than that camera.
BULL: She used
a weather balloon to dispose of a murder weapon?
I thought it sounded like a stretch, too.
But then I took another look at the neighbors' security footage
of the beach. Look what I saw
just a few minutes after Diana left the house.
Okay.
All I see
is water and sky.
Wait for it.
There. Looks an awful lot like a weather balloon to me.
Greta's body was found on the patio.
We think she went out there to launch the balloon.
There's a shed in the back
where that balloon could've been stashed,
blown up and ready. It tracks.
Truth is stranger than fiction.
But is it gonna sound like science fiction to a jury?
[exhales]
Not if it comes from the person who knew Greta best.
[scoffs]
What are you saying?
You think... Greta stabbed herself
to get revenge on Diana?
I'm asking if you think your wife is capable
of doing something like this.
I know she had...
some issues, but...
God.
Your wife set out to ruin Diana's life.
And she might succeed if you don't stop her.
Stop her how?
What, you want me to get up on the witness stand
and-and tell the world that my wife was a sociopath?
I can't do that to my kids.
Look, I know that this is difficult...
They just lost their mother.
I will not take her memory away from them, too.
Diana could go to jail for 20 years.
This jury is against her.
No. They won't convict her.
She's got a great lawyer.
And she has you.
I know you will do whatever it takes
to protect her.
But I have to protect
my children.
This is not my news to share.
But before you make a decision
you're gonna regret, there's something
you should know.
Diana is pregnant.
Pregnant?
Yes.
Are you sure?Frederick,
how are you gonna protect that child?
I first realized that something was wrong with my wife
about ten years ago.
Our family was living in a co-op.
And we had this next-door neighbor.
She was young,
single, pretty.
And my wife got it into her head
that this woman had a thing for me,
thought she was
intentionally working out
in the building gym the same time I was.
One day, the woman came over to borrow a drill and...
Greta came home and found her there and...
totally freaked out.
Next thing I know, this woman is kicked out
of the building by the co-op board.
Why was she kicked out?
Someone had sent the board an ad
that this woman supposedly posted
online offering sexual services out of her apartment.
[stammers] She was a masseuse,
so people were coming in and out all the time.
You don't think that your neighbor placed that ad?
I know she didn't.
When I confrontedmy wife
about faking it, she didn't deny it.
She just said, "I'll do whatever I have to
to protect my marriage."
CHUNK: Your testimony from a few days ago
implied that you believed
that Ms. Lindsay killed your wife.
Do you still believe that?
No.
Based on what I know now,
I believe that Greta went to great lengths...
...to set Diana up, too.
No further questions, Your Honor.
LEAVY: Has the jury reached a verdict?
We have, Your Honor.
On the charge of murder
in the second degree,
we, the jury, find the defendant,
Diana Lindsay,
not guilty.
[exhales sharply][gallery murmuring]
Thank you.
You were brilliant.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
I don't know how to thank you.
Well...
you don't have to.
[bell tinkles]
They serve crow on that menu?
[chuckles]
[laughing]
So I have to lose and be the bigger man?
That's fine. That's fine.Oh, yeah.
[chuckles]That's good. Congratulations.
I'll have to reevaluate your brow creasing.
I for sure thought you were bluffing about that lead.
No. Your crease reading was spot-on.
I was bluffing the whole time.
[groans]It was pure luck that Danny and Taylor
found that weather balloon.
Okay, that is the wildest defense theory
I have ever heard in my life.
But, I have to admit, it did even make me
question Diana's guilt.
You had doubts about Diana's guilt?
Yeah, at the end there, sure.
Greta Page sounds like a real piece of work,
but what do you want to bet Frederick was banging the, uh,
masseuse neighbor back in the day?
Why didn't you just pull the case from the jury?
What?As a prosecutor,
if you have doubts, you have an ethical duty
to dismiss the charges before the jury
goes to verdict.They already heard the entire case.
No, the jury had heard all of the information.
It was up to them to decide.
Rob, you're the government.
[scoffs]You have all the power, all the resources.
You are supposed to be the first and the last check
in the system.
If you were some newbie public defender,
this would be a different story.
But Diana Lindsay had literally
the best defense team money can buy.
And she almost went to jail for the rest of her life
for a crime she didn't commit.But she's not going to jail.
She's not going to jail because you won, remember?
This is your victory dinner. Can we please
enjoy it?
Yeah.
All right.Sure.
Do you want to start with something?
Uh, the yellowtail crudo looks good.
Mm-hmm.Oh, they have, um...
Yeah, they have bone marrow.
You said you liked bone marrow, right?
It was you. It was someone.
Someone said they liked bone marrow.
I don't think I can do this.
You mean us?
[chuckles]
I-I-I wondered
what was gonna happen to us if I won.
I didn't even consider that it could go bad if you won.
It's not about who won.
Rob, what we do in court,
people's lives are at stake.
I know that.
[chair scraping]
You had doubts,
but you wanted to win anyway.
[sighs]
I hate this,
but I have to be honest with myself,
and I don't think that I can be with someone
who sees things so differently than I do.
You can't be serious.
I love you.
And I'm sorry.
[bell tinkles]
Hey. You still like scotch?
What do you think?
I just felt like...
you know, a simple thank-you wasn't enough.
Well, I told you no thank-you was necessary.
But...
it's aged 20 years.
Oh. Well, in that case.
Hmm.
I guess you won't be having...
Yeah, that's on hold for a while.
Yeah. All right.
So...
...where do you go from here?
I don't know.
I've got some thinking to do, but...
I'll be all right.
You sure?
Yeah.
Don't you worry about me. Your job's done.
I'm not your problem anymore.[chuckles]
You have never been my problem.Mm.
["For the Good Times" by Al Green playing]
You know,
despite this being one of the worst things
that's ever happened to me...Mm.
...I didn't hate working with you again.
And I didn't hate working with you either.
Mm.
Which is why it's probably time to say goodbye, huh?
♪ Don't look so sad
Yes.
It probably is.
♪ I know it's over
Goodbye, Jason.
[exhales]
Goodbye, Diana.
♪ But life goes on
♪ And this world
♪ Keeps on turning.
