1
00:00:06,049 --> 00:00:07,508
It's juror number seven, isn't it?
2
00:00:07,592 --> 00:00:11,137
-All I know is he's bought and paid for.
-I thought you had investors.
3
00:00:11,220 --> 00:00:12,555
Not the kind you're thinking of.
4
00:00:12,638 --> 00:00:16,392
I had a roommate in college
named Pavel Kosevich. I know.
5
00:00:16,476 --> 00:00:19,062
His father's name is Sergei Kosevich.
6
00:00:19,145 --> 00:00:21,355
This is not a man you fuck with, Mickey.
7
00:00:21,439 --> 00:00:23,191
Maybe juror number seven's dead.
8
00:00:23,274 --> 00:00:26,319
Did you think of that?
Maybe you and I are next.
9
00:00:26,402 --> 00:00:27,779
Who did this to you?
10
00:00:27,862 --> 00:00:30,615
Without your witness, Soto walks.
11
00:00:30,698 --> 00:00:32,784
[judge] Bail will be set at $2 million.
12
00:00:32,867 --> 00:00:36,913
Tanya, did Soto do anything
to confirm he had your friend killed?
13
00:00:36,996 --> 00:00:42,043
The night before your witness was killed,
I drove him to the same flower shop.
14
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,379
[Lankford] There's not enough
on the phone to nail him.
15
00:00:45,463 --> 00:00:46,964
We gotta get him to turn on Soto.
16
00:00:47,048 --> 00:00:49,425
Do you know why
Lara Elliott reached out to you?
17
00:00:49,509 --> 00:00:53,137
She just said she had something
to tell me and needed to do it in person.
18
00:00:53,221 --> 00:00:55,348
Did Mr. Elliott seem worried or panicked?
19
00:00:55,431 --> 00:00:58,518
[officer] No. But it looked
like he was scrolling through his email.
20
00:00:58,601 --> 00:01:01,270
We had this case won
and you threw it away.
21
00:01:01,354 --> 00:01:03,856
Tell me something.
How do you sleep at night?
22
00:01:04,482 --> 00:01:07,860
I'm going to enjoy
watching the jury convict your client.
23
00:01:07,944 --> 00:01:10,446
[Mickey] We established that
this vehicle was not cleaned.
24
00:01:10,530 --> 00:01:13,533
Could that account for
the gunshot residue on my client's hands?
25
00:01:13,616 --> 00:01:15,827
Given the staggering amount of GSR,
26
00:01:15,910 --> 00:01:18,162
it's the only thing
that could account for it.
27
00:01:18,246 --> 00:01:21,165
[Izzy] What's it like, the moment
when you know you've won?
28
00:01:21,249 --> 00:01:22,875
You never really know for sure.
29
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,253
We missed you last night at the meeting.
30
00:01:25,336 --> 00:01:27,338
My ex is in town,
doing a show. We had dinner.
31
00:01:27,421 --> 00:01:28,381
How did that go?
32
00:01:28,464 --> 00:01:32,218
She asked me to get high with her.
I came within a millimeter of saying yes.
33
00:01:32,301 --> 00:01:34,595
I need to win
in the court of public opinion.
34
00:01:34,679 --> 00:01:36,264
No lawyer can give you that.
35
00:01:36,347 --> 00:01:37,932
That's why I need to testify.
36
00:01:55,950 --> 00:01:59,412
[Izzy] Woke up in my clothes.
Haven't done that in a while.
37
00:01:59,495 --> 00:02:00,705
In a teenager's room.
38
00:02:01,789 --> 00:02:05,501
Tell your daughter she's got good taste
in music. I am down for the K-pop.
39
00:02:08,045 --> 00:02:09,172
Thanks for the rescue.
40
00:02:10,673 --> 00:02:13,384
-Was that a stumble or a fall?
-A stumble.
41
00:02:14,093 --> 00:02:16,846
I called my sponsor
and I'm going to a meeting. Promise.
42
00:02:16,929 --> 00:02:17,889
Good.
43
00:02:19,056 --> 00:02:22,643
I don't want you worrying about me.
You got a trial to win, right?
44
00:02:22,727 --> 00:02:24,896
Yeah. Maybe. Maybe not. [sighs]
45
00:02:25,688 --> 00:02:26,772
I miss something?
46
00:02:28,900 --> 00:02:32,445
My client wants to testify.
Can't talk him out of it.
47
00:02:32,528 --> 00:02:34,655
Isn't that what you're not supposed to do?
48
00:02:34,739 --> 00:02:39,160
It's like boxing. We won the fight
on points, but my guy wants to brawl.
49
00:02:39,243 --> 00:02:43,247
I just have to convince him
to play defense and not get knocked out.
50
00:02:45,958 --> 00:02:49,670
-You going in early? I'll take you.
-No, you take yourself to that meeting.
51
00:02:49,754 --> 00:02:53,591
I'll drop you off at your car.
Part of my generous benefits package.
52
00:02:56,010 --> 00:02:58,012
Your wife was sleeping with another man,
53
00:02:58,095 --> 00:03:02,099
you expect this jury to believe that you
found them naked in bed, shot to death?
54
00:03:02,183 --> 00:03:03,184
That's what happened.
55
00:03:03,267 --> 00:03:05,728
You went there
'cause you knew they'd be together.
56
00:03:05,811 --> 00:03:06,646
No.
57
00:03:06,729 --> 00:03:09,065
You crept up the stairs
with a .45 and confronted them?
58
00:03:09,148 --> 00:03:11,776
No. I found them dead.
59
00:03:11,859 --> 00:03:15,404
-I told--
-You shot Jan Rilz first, point blank.
60
00:03:15,488 --> 00:03:16,489
No.
61
00:03:16,572 --> 00:03:18,741
Your wife begged for her life,
you killed her too?
62
00:03:18,824 --> 00:03:20,576
No! No!
63
00:03:21,994 --> 00:03:22,870
[exhales]
64
00:03:24,330 --> 00:03:27,500
I have to get you ready
for cross-examination, you understand?
65
00:03:27,583 --> 00:03:30,711
Golantz has nothing to lose, Trevor.
He's already bleeding.
66
00:03:30,795 --> 00:03:32,672
Why are you offering him your throat?
67
00:03:32,755 --> 00:03:34,924
Mickey, I told you this
from the beginning.
68
00:03:36,008 --> 00:03:39,220
I will not spend the rest of my life
69
00:03:39,303 --> 00:03:42,765
hearing people whisper,
"Did he do it?" behind my back.
70
00:03:42,848 --> 00:03:44,976
I'm gonna do that whether you win or lose.
71
00:03:45,059 --> 00:03:46,394
-Yeah. Lorna.
-Uh.
72
00:03:48,479 --> 00:03:51,607
Whatever Golantz
throws at you, your job, Trevor,
73
00:03:51,691 --> 00:03:54,151
is to tell the jury
how much you loved your wife.
74
00:03:54,235 --> 00:03:57,321
All right? Now you do that,
maybe we can pull this off.
75
00:04:02,910 --> 00:04:04,912
[opening theme music playing]
76
00:04:12,586 --> 00:04:14,505
-[greets in Spanish]
-[in English] Hey.
77
00:04:14,588 --> 00:04:17,300
-I read your closing.
-And?
78
00:04:17,383 --> 00:04:20,303
It's good. It's thorough.
79
00:04:20,386 --> 00:04:22,305
-You hate it.
-No, I…
80
00:04:22,388 --> 00:04:25,266
You hate it. Come on.
Just give it to me straight, Lorna.
81
00:04:25,349 --> 00:04:29,186
[sighs] It's about gunshot residue
and forensic analysis.
82
00:04:29,270 --> 00:04:31,605
That's my defense.
I don't have anything else.
83
00:04:31,689 --> 00:04:32,982
That's Jerry's defense.
84
00:04:35,359 --> 00:04:39,530
Just… It doesn't feel like you.
85
00:04:39,613 --> 00:04:43,117
I know. But I've got my entire career
riding on this and he…
86
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,912
This whole time, I just feel
like I'm wearing a dead man's suit.
87
00:04:46,996 --> 00:04:49,248
That's disgusting.
Don't say that in court.
88
00:04:49,332 --> 00:04:53,377
[sighs] Sometimes, you just gotta
ride the horse you rode in on.
89
00:04:55,129 --> 00:04:56,339
I gotta go.
90
00:04:57,465 --> 00:05:01,135
[Alvin] Call my parole officer.
Where is he?
91
00:05:02,595 --> 00:05:03,763
This is bullshit.
92
00:05:06,307 --> 00:05:07,516
You got nothin'.
93
00:05:09,352 --> 00:05:11,812
Violate me or let me go.
94
00:05:11,896 --> 00:05:14,690
You done, Alvin?
'Cause you're giving me a headache.
95
00:05:23,449 --> 00:05:26,869
So… this is you.
96
00:05:28,662 --> 00:05:33,417
This is where David Loresca was killed
ten minutes later, a block away.
97
00:05:33,501 --> 00:05:36,295
That is a hell of a coincidence.
98
00:05:37,254 --> 00:05:39,882
We got you at the scene, Alvin.
99
00:05:40,925 --> 00:05:43,427
With your record, you're looking at life.
100
00:05:44,678 --> 00:05:45,679
However…
101
00:05:47,681 --> 00:05:49,308
we know that it was a job.
102
00:05:50,309 --> 00:05:52,645
We know who paid you. We know why.
103
00:05:53,396 --> 00:05:54,730
And that's who we want.
104
00:05:56,357 --> 00:06:00,277
Okay? So you just
have to help us help you.
105
00:06:02,321 --> 00:06:04,198
Just give it up, Alvin.
106
00:06:05,449 --> 00:06:07,785
You know we can make this all go away.
107
00:06:10,871 --> 00:06:12,164
[sobbing]
108
00:06:14,542 --> 00:06:16,168
[laughs maniacally]
109
00:06:19,046 --> 00:06:23,092
I knew my phone was acting weird
after that bullshit search.
110
00:06:24,510 --> 00:06:25,428
Yeah.
111
00:06:27,054 --> 00:06:28,431
I was there.
112
00:06:29,890 --> 00:06:31,517
Making a delivery.
113
00:06:32,810 --> 00:06:34,061
Call my boss.
114
00:06:35,729 --> 00:06:36,939
Better yet…
115
00:06:38,899 --> 00:06:41,902
call Father Cruz at St. Lorenzo's.
116
00:06:46,031 --> 00:06:47,324
He signed for it.
117
00:06:57,668 --> 00:06:59,086
Bullshit, but it checks out.
118
00:07:00,171 --> 00:07:01,797
How long have we got?
119
00:07:01,881 --> 00:07:04,383
He burned his phone call
thinking it was a parole beef,
120
00:07:04,467 --> 00:07:05,676
we can hold him for ten hours.
121
00:07:05,759 --> 00:07:07,636
As soon as we
cut him loose, he'll tell Soto.
122
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:08,762
Soto'll circle the wagons.
123
00:07:08,846 --> 00:07:11,056
Won't take him long
to figure out who turned on him.
124
00:07:11,140 --> 00:07:14,643
Maybe not though. Right now, Alvin thinks
someone in his gang snitched him out,
125
00:07:14,727 --> 00:07:16,812
so maybe they'll go
on a witch-hunt there instead.
126
00:07:16,896 --> 00:07:19,190
Okay. That's good.
127
00:07:20,024 --> 00:07:22,485
Use that to scare him
before you let him go.
128
00:07:22,568 --> 00:07:24,236
Give Soto something else to worry about.
129
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,114
-Wait, where you going?
-To throw a Hail Mary.
130
00:07:28,115 --> 00:07:28,991
[door closes]
131
00:07:30,075 --> 00:07:31,785
[Mickey] You want my client
to wear a wire?
132
00:07:31,869 --> 00:07:34,079
[Maggie] I don't have a choice.
133
00:07:34,163 --> 00:07:36,832
[Mickey] You do.
Tell fucking Lankford to go to hell.
134
00:07:36,916 --> 00:07:40,794
[Maggie] It's my idea, Mickey. She's
the only person Soto might open up to.
135
00:07:40,878 --> 00:07:43,839
You want to make a pregnant woman
collateral damage, Maggie?
136
00:07:43,923 --> 00:07:48,260
[laughs incredulously] You're judging me?
The tactics I've seen you pull in cases…
137
00:07:48,344 --> 00:07:50,513
Now I see where Hayley gets her ideas.
138
00:07:50,596 --> 00:07:52,932
I do what I have to do
for my clients, Maggie.
139
00:07:53,015 --> 00:07:54,433
Really? What about Eli Wyms?
140
00:07:55,309 --> 00:07:57,770
-What?
-[Maggie] People talk at the DA's office.
141
00:07:57,853 --> 00:08:00,814
You stuck him in a psych ward
until you could spring him on Golantz.
142
00:08:00,898 --> 00:08:03,859
-He wasn't collateral damage?
-That was Jerry. Wasn't me.
143
00:08:03,943 --> 00:08:06,362
Bottom line, it's her call, Mickey.
144
00:08:06,445 --> 00:08:10,407
Maggie, you sent her to me because
you knew I would take care of her.
145
00:08:10,491 --> 00:08:13,327
-Right? Now you just want me to roll over?
-This is taking care of her.
146
00:08:13,410 --> 00:08:15,496
She needs to get out
from under this thing.
147
00:08:17,414 --> 00:08:20,793
All right, fine.
You want Tanya to wear a wire?
148
00:08:20,876 --> 00:08:22,628
If, for some reason, she agrees,
149
00:08:22,711 --> 00:08:24,588
the second
she gets a confession, she's done.
150
00:08:24,672 --> 00:08:27,675
-Meaning?
-She never has to testify against Soto.
151
00:08:27,758 --> 00:08:31,011
-And you relocate her immediately.
-I don't know if I can do that.
152
00:08:31,095 --> 00:08:34,306
This is not negotiable, Maggie.
The guy kills witnesses.
153
00:08:37,268 --> 00:08:39,603
[sighs] Okay. Okay.
154
00:08:39,687 --> 00:08:43,357
Good. I'll sit with her in a few days,
and I'll explain everything--
155
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,068
-This has to happen today.
-I'm in the middle of a trial.
156
00:08:46,151 --> 00:08:47,278
Then I'll talk to her.
157
00:08:47,361 --> 00:08:51,740
You want me to let the DA talk to my
client about wearing a wire without me?
158
00:08:51,824 --> 00:08:55,077
-No. Hell no.
-I'm not the DA. I'm me.
159
00:08:57,288 --> 00:09:00,165
You wanna rebuild things?
You want me to trust you again?
160
00:09:00,249 --> 00:09:03,627
Then start by trusting me. Okay?
161
00:09:07,631 --> 00:09:09,717
[Mickey] What do you want from me, Cisco?
162
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,969
My client is insisting
on taking the stand.
163
00:09:12,052 --> 00:09:13,721
Yeah, well, I don't get it, Mick.
164
00:09:14,722 --> 00:09:15,973
Hey, babe.
165
00:09:16,056 --> 00:09:20,269
If this guy blows up his own case,
Sergei Kosevich is gonna kill him.
166
00:09:21,186 --> 00:09:22,813
What does he have? A death wish?
167
00:09:22,896 --> 00:09:25,899
I don't have time to figure out
the answer to that right now.
168
00:09:25,983 --> 00:09:28,319
[Cisco] Well, how about you?
Do you have one?
169
00:09:28,402 --> 00:09:32,156
Because this guy's putting a target
on your back and your family, too.
170
00:09:32,239 --> 00:09:35,868
I don't have a choice, Cisco.
I've got to do what my client wants.
171
00:09:35,951 --> 00:09:39,079
And Hayley and Maggie,
they're safe. At least for now.
172
00:09:39,163 --> 00:09:40,581
Oh, yeah? How do you know?
173
00:09:41,373 --> 00:09:44,251
Because I've got people watching them.
174
00:09:45,044 --> 00:09:47,212
-Who?
-It doesn't matter, Cisco.
175
00:09:47,296 --> 00:09:50,716
The best way I can keep everybody
safe is to get my client an acquittal.
176
00:09:50,799 --> 00:09:53,844
That's what I'm gonna do.
All right? So just wish me luck.
177
00:09:59,558 --> 00:10:00,851
[sighs]
178
00:10:25,292 --> 00:10:26,335
[elevator dings]
179
00:10:26,418 --> 00:10:27,836
[cell phone chimes]
180
00:10:30,297 --> 00:10:33,384
Excuse me. Haller. You got a minute?
181
00:10:35,552 --> 00:10:36,470
[clears throat]
182
00:10:40,307 --> 00:10:43,769
Voluntary manslaughter.
Eleven years. Probably do nine.
183
00:10:43,852 --> 00:10:46,063
I know you think
you've got me over a barrel,
184
00:10:46,146 --> 00:10:48,148
but you never know what a jury's gonna do.
185
00:10:49,817 --> 00:10:51,026
That's it?
186
00:10:51,860 --> 00:10:53,821
You're not much of a salesman, are you?
187
00:10:56,657 --> 00:10:58,617
I'm not used to having to be one.
188
00:11:01,995 --> 00:11:05,457
I'll take it to my client,
but knowing him, don't hold your breath.
189
00:11:21,223 --> 00:11:22,224
[man] All rise!
190
00:11:28,939 --> 00:11:29,773
Be seated.
191
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,908
Mr. Haller, any more evidence to present?
192
00:11:43,954 --> 00:11:47,583
Just have one more witness, Your Honor.
193
00:11:50,711 --> 00:11:52,171
Defense calls Trevor Elliott.
194
00:11:52,254 --> 00:11:53,547
[murmuring indistinctly]
195
00:12:20,991 --> 00:12:22,493
[woman] Raise your right hand.
196
00:12:23,494 --> 00:12:28,957
Do you solemnly state that the testimony
you may give shall be the truth,
197
00:12:29,041 --> 00:12:31,043
the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth?
198
00:12:31,126 --> 00:12:32,127
I do.
199
00:12:35,672 --> 00:12:38,717
Mr. Elliott, I think the jury
is well aware of who you are.
200
00:12:39,468 --> 00:12:41,345
Tell us what you do for a living?
201
00:12:41,428 --> 00:12:45,349
Of course. I run a company called Parallax
202
00:12:46,225 --> 00:12:48,101
that I founded with my wife, Lara.
203
00:12:48,185 --> 00:12:49,561
We make video games.
204
00:12:49,645 --> 00:12:52,689
And what is your biggest
selling game to date?
205
00:12:52,773 --> 00:12:54,316
It's called Nocturna.
206
00:12:54,399 --> 00:12:59,154
It's a journey through a post-apocalyptic
America cloaked in perpetual darkness.
207
00:12:59,238 --> 00:13:00,614
And this is fun for people?
208
00:13:00,697 --> 00:13:01,698
[jury chuckles]
209
00:13:03,909 --> 00:13:06,870
Yeah, so much so,
we're about to launch a sequel.
210
00:13:08,121 --> 00:13:10,332
In your opinion,
what makes the game special?
211
00:13:11,083 --> 00:13:13,752
Well, if you ask the players,
it's the characters.
212
00:13:15,170 --> 00:13:17,631
They look like real people.
213
00:13:17,714 --> 00:13:22,052
In a way that when we started, other
video games couldn't compete with it.
214
00:13:22,135 --> 00:13:24,638
It's like a movie that you play a part in.
215
00:13:25,389 --> 00:13:29,893
And in Nocturna, who would be
considered the star of the movie?
216
00:13:29,977 --> 00:13:33,397
Sure, the hero's name is Jasmine Lumens.
217
00:13:34,481 --> 00:13:37,776
But her image is based on my wife, Lara.
218
00:13:38,318 --> 00:13:41,154
I designed the character after her
as a way to honor her,
219
00:13:42,322 --> 00:13:45,784
and how much I loved her.
How much she inspired me.
220
00:13:49,413 --> 00:13:51,415
How did you meet your wife, Mr. Elliott?
221
00:13:52,583 --> 00:13:55,294
We met in grad school, at Stanford.
222
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:01,466
I was in front of the room,
working on a problem up on the board.
223
00:14:02,467 --> 00:14:07,639
When I'd finished, the professor
immediately erased the entire thing
224
00:14:08,390 --> 00:14:10,726
because I'd made
a fundamental error. It was…
225
00:14:11,560 --> 00:14:13,186
[scoffs] humiliating.
226
00:14:13,270 --> 00:14:14,688
And what happened then?
227
00:14:15,814 --> 00:14:19,484
Lara raised her hand and said
that she'd made the same mistake.
228
00:14:19,568 --> 00:14:20,777
It made me feel better.
229
00:14:22,446 --> 00:14:27,618
Until I was walking past her desk
and happened to glance at her screen,
230
00:14:28,493 --> 00:14:30,037
and she got the problem right.
231
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:34,249
But that was Lara.
232
00:14:41,256 --> 00:14:42,674
What was your marriage like?
233
00:14:44,927 --> 00:14:46,136
Well, it wasn't perfect.
234
00:14:47,763 --> 00:14:49,473
We had problems like any couple.
235
00:14:50,849 --> 00:14:52,434
[Mickey] What kind of problems?
236
00:14:58,023 --> 00:15:00,233
Infidelity, for one.
237
00:15:02,486 --> 00:15:04,404
I knew she was having the affair.
238
00:15:04,488 --> 00:15:05,948
[murmuring indistinctly]
239
00:15:06,949 --> 00:15:09,576
-[Mickey] Did you tell the police that?
-[Trevor] No.
240
00:15:09,660 --> 00:15:10,535
[Mickey] Why not?
241
00:15:11,912 --> 00:15:16,124
Because I knew it would make me
look like an angry, jealous husband,
242
00:15:16,208 --> 00:15:17,334
and that wasn't true.
243
00:15:18,502 --> 00:15:19,461
I'd forgiven her.
244
00:15:20,963 --> 00:15:21,797
Why?
245
00:15:23,173 --> 00:15:25,550
Because her affair was my fault.
246
00:15:27,344 --> 00:15:28,345
See, I…
247
00:15:29,221 --> 00:15:34,101
I was working all the time.
And ignoring her.
248
00:15:35,519 --> 00:15:39,106
And I had also been unfaithful.
249
00:15:40,565 --> 00:15:43,235
-[Mickey] You had affairs?
-[Trevor] Yes.
250
00:15:44,945 --> 00:15:48,615
I was not a perfect husband
in any way, shape, or form.
251
00:15:50,409 --> 00:15:52,452
And I felt so lucky every day
252
00:15:53,286 --> 00:15:59,126
that Lara was able to look past that
and see me for the man I was trying to be
253
00:16:00,252 --> 00:16:02,295
and not the man I sometimes was.
254
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,551
Why did you go out
to the house that day, Mr. Elliott?
255
00:16:10,178 --> 00:16:11,388
I went out there…
256
00:16:14,766 --> 00:16:16,226
to fight for my wife.
257
00:16:18,228 --> 00:16:20,522
To try and save our marriage.
258
00:16:22,232 --> 00:16:23,358
Instead…
259
00:16:26,945 --> 00:16:29,031
I found them dead.
260
00:16:30,282 --> 00:16:31,742
[voice shaking] Both of them.
261
00:16:44,504 --> 00:16:48,300
People would not oppose a break,
so Mr. Elliott can gather himself.
262
00:16:48,383 --> 00:16:49,885
[Mickey] Unnecessary, Judge.
263
00:16:51,219 --> 00:16:55,307
Mr. Elliott…
I only have one more question.
264
00:16:57,517 --> 00:16:58,727
Did you kill your wife?
265
00:17:01,104 --> 00:17:02,355
God, no.
266
00:17:05,525 --> 00:17:06,735
I love her.
267
00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:08,236
[sighs]
268
00:17:10,655 --> 00:17:12,699
I loved her.
269
00:17:37,933 --> 00:17:39,351
[Stanton] Cross-examination.
270
00:17:43,855 --> 00:17:47,400
Mr. Elliott, you told the police
that you and your wife
271
00:17:47,484 --> 00:17:50,278
had an argument the night
before the murders. Is that correct?
272
00:17:50,946 --> 00:17:52,197
Yes.
273
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,449
[Golantz] Contrary to
what you told the police,
274
00:17:54,533 --> 00:17:57,285
you just testified that that argument
was about her affair.
275
00:17:58,411 --> 00:17:59,746
That's correct.
276
00:17:59,830 --> 00:18:05,001
Now, you also told the police that you
drove out to the Malibu house the next day
277
00:18:05,085 --> 00:18:08,797
to surprise Lara
with a trip up the coast. Is that right?
278
00:18:09,631 --> 00:18:10,465
Yes.
279
00:18:11,133 --> 00:18:14,678
Is that in fact true, or another
thing you lied to the police about?
280
00:18:14,761 --> 00:18:17,139
-Objection. Argumentative?
-I'll move on.
281
00:18:17,222 --> 00:18:21,768
Prior to driving out to your house
that day, did you make any reservations?
282
00:18:23,103 --> 00:18:24,104
Reservations?
283
00:18:25,063 --> 00:18:29,359
At a hotel?
Or a restaurant? For your trip.
284
00:18:30,443 --> 00:18:33,947
Yeah, not that I can recall.
I was trying to be spontaneous.
285
00:18:34,030 --> 00:18:38,577
The People would like to enter
into evidence, the People's exhibit 21.
286
00:18:39,703 --> 00:18:40,787
[Stanton] So entered.
287
00:18:43,915 --> 00:18:46,293
[Golantz] Is this your appointment
calendar, Mr. Elliott?
288
00:18:47,919 --> 00:18:50,547
That looks to be a printout of it, yes.
289
00:18:50,630 --> 00:18:55,010
[Golantz] Could you please turn to the day
of the murder, September 6th of last year?
290
00:18:55,886 --> 00:18:58,430
Do you see
the list of meetings for that day?
291
00:18:58,513 --> 00:18:59,389
Yes.
292
00:19:00,390 --> 00:19:01,850
[Golantz] How many are there?
293
00:19:02,601 --> 00:19:04,102
Uh, seven.
294
00:19:04,186 --> 00:19:07,189
Now, did you cancel
any of those seven meetings
295
00:19:07,272 --> 00:19:10,859
before getting in the car
to surprise your wife with the trip?
296
00:19:10,942 --> 00:19:13,570
I wasn't thinking about that.
We just had a fight.
297
00:19:13,653 --> 00:19:15,280
It's a yes or no question.
298
00:19:15,363 --> 00:19:18,283
Did you or did you not
clear your calendar that day?
299
00:19:20,118 --> 00:19:21,786
No, I don't believe I did.
300
00:19:21,870 --> 00:19:23,997
You knew Jan Rilz was with your wife
301
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,416
when you drove out to the house
that day, didn't you?
302
00:19:27,083 --> 00:19:28,126
No.
303
00:19:30,462 --> 00:19:33,048
[Golantz] This is People's exhibit 22.
304
00:19:34,758 --> 00:19:36,134
The security camera log.
305
00:19:39,471 --> 00:19:40,805
Now, isn't it a fact
306
00:19:40,889 --> 00:19:44,517
that you knew the cameras at your
Malibu house were turned off that morning?
307
00:19:45,477 --> 00:19:49,522
I knew about the affair. I didn't know
Rilz was going to be at the house.
308
00:19:49,606 --> 00:19:54,903
Your testimony is that you weren't upset
because you had been unfaithful yourself?
309
00:19:55,779 --> 00:19:57,530
Well, yes.
310
00:19:58,865 --> 00:20:01,284
Did you and Lara Elliott
have a prenuptial agreement?
311
00:20:01,368 --> 00:20:02,202
No.
312
00:20:02,285 --> 00:20:03,995
So if your wife divorced you,
313
00:20:04,079 --> 00:20:06,706
she would've been entitled
to half of your fortune, right?
314
00:20:06,790 --> 00:20:10,043
Objection. Mr. Elliott
is not an expert in family law.
315
00:20:10,669 --> 00:20:11,670
[Stanton] Sustained.
316
00:20:16,925 --> 00:20:18,385
The night before the murders,
317
00:20:19,719 --> 00:20:22,055
did your wife tell you
she was meeting Sonia Patel?
318
00:20:22,138 --> 00:20:22,973
No.
319
00:20:23,056 --> 00:20:27,519
Isn't it a fact that you were afraid
that she was talking about divorcing you?
320
00:20:27,602 --> 00:20:30,563
Perhaps asking an old friend
how to protect herself financially?
321
00:20:30,647 --> 00:20:33,858
-Objection. Calls for speculation.
-[Golantz] I'll rephrase the question.
322
00:20:33,942 --> 00:20:39,072
Mr. Elliott, do you know why your wife
reached out to Sonia Patel?
323
00:20:39,155 --> 00:20:44,911
No. Lara hadn't seen Sonia in years.
I don't know why she contacted her.
324
00:20:46,329 --> 00:20:49,291
-[Golantz] Do you own a gun, Mr. Elliott?
-[Trevor] No.
325
00:20:49,374 --> 00:20:53,378
-[Golantz] Have you ever fired a gun?
-I was raised by a couple of ex-hippies.
326
00:20:53,461 --> 00:20:55,714
I wasn't even allowed
to have a water pistol.
327
00:20:55,797 --> 00:20:59,467
So your answer is no?
No experience with firearms?
328
00:20:59,551 --> 00:21:00,427
[Trevor] Correct.
329
00:21:01,344 --> 00:21:05,598
The People would like to enter
into evidence, People's exhibit 23.
330
00:21:10,770 --> 00:21:13,857
Now, this is Mr. Elliott's game, Nocturna.
331
00:21:14,607 --> 00:21:18,320
Now, I'm not much of a gamer,
so I want to focus on this one moment.
332
00:21:19,446 --> 00:21:22,240
[Jasmine] Take the gun. You might need it.
333
00:21:25,910 --> 00:21:28,288
This is the first time
the hero picks up a gun?
334
00:21:28,371 --> 00:21:29,205
Yes.
335
00:21:29,956 --> 00:21:33,168
The gun that would become
her primary weapon throughout the game.
336
00:21:34,502 --> 00:21:37,130
Can you tell the court
what kind of gun that is?
337
00:21:37,213 --> 00:21:38,256
What kind?
338
00:21:39,049 --> 00:21:40,925
[Golantz] The brand and caliber
of the weapon?
339
00:21:41,009 --> 00:21:42,469
Sidebar, Your Honor?
340
00:21:48,683 --> 00:21:52,645
Your Honor, is my client being tried
on an Xbox or in a court of law?
341
00:21:52,729 --> 00:21:55,148
This goes directly
to the heart of the People's case.
342
00:21:55,231 --> 00:21:57,150
It's misleading and prejudicial.
343
00:21:57,233 --> 00:22:02,280
Indeed, it would be. If Mr. Golantz had
tried to enter this in his case in chief.
344
00:22:02,364 --> 00:22:04,741
But he did not.
Your client opened that door
345
00:22:04,824 --> 00:22:07,702
when he testified that he had
no experience with firearms.
346
00:22:07,786 --> 00:22:10,413
I want my objection
noted on the record for appeal.
347
00:22:10,497 --> 00:22:11,498
Noted.
348
00:22:12,916 --> 00:22:14,292
The witness may answer.
349
00:22:16,961 --> 00:22:20,882
Ah, I believe it's a Heckler & Koch,
.45 caliber.
350
00:22:20,965 --> 00:22:23,301
[Golantz] An HK .45 semi-automatic.
351
00:22:24,928 --> 00:22:26,888
That's the same gun that police believe
352
00:22:26,971 --> 00:22:29,724
was used to kill
Lara Elliott and Jan Rilz, isn't it?
353
00:22:30,683 --> 00:22:33,978
I wouldn't know. I guess,
if that's what's on the police report.
354
00:22:34,062 --> 00:22:36,898
Did your company own
a Heckler & Koch .45 semi-automatic
355
00:22:36,981 --> 00:22:38,441
used as a model for this gun?
356
00:22:39,192 --> 00:22:40,026
No.
357
00:22:40,110 --> 00:22:42,862
So a search
of your company's business transactions
358
00:22:42,946 --> 00:22:44,864
wouldn't reveal any such purchase?
359
00:22:44,948 --> 00:22:46,408
No, it would not.
360
00:22:46,491 --> 00:22:50,578
And the fact that it was the same
exact gun, that's just a coincidence then?
361
00:22:50,662 --> 00:22:52,372
Objection. Argumentative.
362
00:22:55,792 --> 00:22:57,168
I'll withdraw the question.
363
00:22:59,129 --> 00:23:00,755
Nothing further, Your Honor.
364
00:23:03,716 --> 00:23:06,094
-[Stanton] Redirect?
-[Mickey] No, Your Honor.
365
00:23:07,679 --> 00:23:10,849
[Stanton] Very well.
Court will take a 30-minute recess.
366
00:23:10,932 --> 00:23:12,642
Then we'll hear closing arguments.
367
00:23:15,979 --> 00:23:16,938
[sighs softly]
368
00:23:27,782 --> 00:23:28,825
-[Tanya] Hey.
-Hey.
369
00:23:30,535 --> 00:23:34,330
-Mickey said all I have to do is listen.
-That's right.
370
00:23:36,583 --> 00:23:38,209
Did you go to the flower shop?
371
00:23:38,293 --> 00:23:42,589
Yes. And it led us to the man
we believe shot David Loresca.
372
00:23:42,672 --> 00:23:44,382
Then you got what you need.
373
00:23:45,133 --> 00:23:47,427
[sighs] I wish it were that simple.
374
00:23:50,054 --> 00:23:53,433
Listen, I want Angelo Soto
to pay for his crimes, Tanya.
375
00:23:53,516 --> 00:23:55,977
That's my job. I don't apologize for it.
376
00:23:56,811 --> 00:23:58,938
But there is a line that I won't cross.
377
00:23:59,731 --> 00:24:05,028
I won't force you to do something
that would put you or your baby at risk.
378
00:24:05,987 --> 00:24:08,364
-What do you mean?
-[Maggie] You have a choice.
379
00:24:08,990 --> 00:24:12,327
You can back away right now
and our case against Soto goes away,
380
00:24:12,410 --> 00:24:16,331
and you two can raise your child together,
and you'll never hear from me again.
381
00:24:17,415 --> 00:24:19,542
I don't want to raise my child with him.
382
00:24:20,251 --> 00:24:22,128
Then you can make a different choice.
383
00:24:23,379 --> 00:24:27,175
You can wear a wire, a hidden microphone,
384
00:24:27,258 --> 00:24:31,137
and you can get Angelo to confess
to ordering the murder of David Loresca.
385
00:24:33,806 --> 00:24:35,517
I promise, we'll be right outside.
386
00:24:37,977 --> 00:24:39,020
How old were you?
387
00:24:39,979 --> 00:24:42,065
-When?
-When he brought you here.
388
00:24:42,774 --> 00:24:45,985
Made you work for table scraps
until he took a liking to you. How old?
389
00:24:48,905 --> 00:24:49,948
Nineteen.
390
00:24:52,033 --> 00:24:53,076
Nineteen.
391
00:24:55,662 --> 00:24:58,164
Well, if you wanna escape
from him once and for all, Tanya,
392
00:24:58,248 --> 00:24:59,457
this is your chance.
393
00:25:02,794 --> 00:25:03,878
But it's up to you.
394
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,717
Closing is about to start. Where are you?
395
00:25:09,801 --> 00:25:11,970
I'm right in the middle
of something, babe.
396
00:25:12,804 --> 00:25:14,931
-[Lorna] For the Elliott case?
-[Cisco] Kinda.
397
00:25:16,391 --> 00:25:18,184
I'll be there as soon as I can.
398
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:23,731
You weren't lying.
399
00:25:25,733 --> 00:25:26,943
Excuse me?
400
00:25:27,527 --> 00:25:29,946
When you said you were
gonna be at the trial till the end.
401
00:25:32,031 --> 00:25:33,741
It's the least I could do for Jan.
402
00:25:34,909 --> 00:25:39,455
Carol, I'm so sorry for your loss.
I should have told you that the first day.
403
00:25:40,331 --> 00:25:44,377
Whatever happens,
I hope this brings you some peace.
404
00:25:53,928 --> 00:25:55,263
[Stanton] Mr. Golantz?
405
00:25:59,267 --> 00:26:00,435
[Golantz clears throat]
406
00:26:17,076 --> 00:26:18,161
Ladies and gentlemen.
407
00:26:19,871 --> 00:26:21,205
This case is simple.
408
00:26:22,999 --> 00:26:26,753
A man discovers that his wife is having
an affair and they have an argument.
409
00:26:27,545 --> 00:26:28,796
This is not disputed.
410
00:26:30,131 --> 00:26:32,383
Next morning,
he drives to their beach house,
411
00:26:32,467 --> 00:26:34,761
where the security cameras are turned off.
412
00:26:35,637 --> 00:26:37,347
Also not disputed.
413
00:26:37,430 --> 00:26:44,354
There, he claims he finds his wife
and her lover have been shot to death.
414
00:27:06,292 --> 00:27:10,296
Now, the defense
asks you to believe the absurd story
415
00:27:11,047 --> 00:27:13,091
that the defendant went to the house
416
00:27:13,716 --> 00:27:16,219
to surprise his wife
with a trip up the coast.
417
00:27:17,011 --> 00:27:19,555
That the gunshot residue
found on his hand,
418
00:27:19,639 --> 00:27:21,391
that didn't come from firing a gun.
419
00:27:21,474 --> 00:27:24,018
No, that came from an unwashed police car.
420
00:27:26,229 --> 00:27:30,358
That it's just a coincidence
that the killer used the identical gun
421
00:27:30,441 --> 00:27:31,943
as the hero in his video game.
422
00:27:33,319 --> 00:27:37,115
And that he was the victim
of a rush to judgment,
423
00:27:37,198 --> 00:27:42,370
despite the fact that he admits to lying
to police to hide the appearance of guilt.
424
00:27:44,497 --> 00:27:46,874
But common sense and logic will tell you
425
00:27:46,958 --> 00:27:52,088
who fired the bullets that ended the lives
of Lara Elliott and Jan Rilz that day.
426
00:27:52,171 --> 00:27:55,675
Now, you heard the defendant
testify that he loved his wife.
427
00:27:55,758 --> 00:27:58,261
What does love mean
to a man like Trevor Elliott?
428
00:28:08,938 --> 00:28:12,692
He used Lara as the model
for his video game.
429
00:28:13,443 --> 00:28:15,611
Because that's what he wanted her to be.
430
00:28:15,695 --> 00:28:19,449
An empty shell
that he could control with a few buttons.
431
00:28:19,532 --> 00:28:23,786
He locked his wife in a gilded cage,
and when she tried to break free,
432
00:28:23,870 --> 00:28:26,497
he murdered her and her boyfriend.
433
00:28:26,581 --> 00:28:31,252
Because if Trevor Elliott couldn't
have Lara, neither could anyone else!
434
00:28:35,381 --> 00:28:39,552
Simply put, Trevor Elliott is guilty.
435
00:28:39,635 --> 00:28:44,974
If common sense and logic are your guide,
there is no other conclusion.
436
00:28:48,561 --> 00:28:49,437
Thank you.
437
00:29:00,615 --> 00:29:01,824
Mr. Haller?
438
00:29:06,746 --> 00:29:08,790
How much
do closing statements really matter?
439
00:29:08,873 --> 00:29:10,833
Hasn't the jury
already made up their mind?
440
00:29:10,917 --> 00:29:12,877
Remember, it's not a speech,
it's an argument.
441
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,671
If you don't listen
to what the prosecutor is saying,
442
00:29:15,755 --> 00:29:18,299
you'll miss your chance
to take the weakest part of your case
443
00:29:18,382 --> 00:29:20,176
and turn it into your greatest strength.
444
00:29:41,113 --> 00:29:45,576
My daughter is taking algebra,
and she hates it.
445
00:29:45,660 --> 00:29:46,494
She hates it.
446
00:29:46,577 --> 00:29:49,038
She says, "Dad, why do I need this?"
447
00:29:49,121 --> 00:29:53,543
I say, "Honey, when the ancient Mayans
wanted to understand their world,
448
00:29:53,626 --> 00:29:54,710
they developed math."
449
00:29:55,336 --> 00:29:59,215
"They discovered the calendar,
365 days in a solar year."
450
00:29:59,298 --> 00:30:00,216
"Amazing, right?"
451
00:30:00,299 --> 00:30:02,969
-Didn't work. She still hates it.
-[jury chuckles]
452
00:30:03,678 --> 00:30:05,763
Anyway, why am I telling you this?
453
00:30:06,472 --> 00:30:09,141
Because we're gonna use math
to understand our world.
454
00:30:09,225 --> 00:30:14,814
Now, bear with me. Mr. Elliott's car
leaves his office at 10:44 a.m.
455
00:30:16,357 --> 00:30:20,111
At an average speed
of 35 miles per hour, right?
456
00:30:20,194 --> 00:30:25,867
So he arrives at his house
in Malibu, which is 21.2 miles away
457
00:30:26,701 --> 00:30:28,828
in 36 minutes.
458
00:30:28,911 --> 00:30:30,204
That is undisputed.
459
00:30:31,706 --> 00:30:32,707
So, he arrives…
460
00:30:34,876 --> 00:30:39,213
at 11:20 a.m.
and calls 911 five minutes later
461
00:30:40,548 --> 00:30:43,050
at 11:25 a.m.
462
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,639
Now, this call triggers
the arrival of the videographer,
463
00:30:48,723 --> 00:30:52,184
who begins filming Trevor Elliott
outside of his house
464
00:30:52,268 --> 00:30:58,858
at exactly 11:27 a.m.
That leaves just seven minutes.
465
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,071
Seven minutes
from when Mr. Elliott arrived
466
00:31:04,155 --> 00:31:07,700
until the videographer
began filming him outside of his house.
467
00:31:07,783 --> 00:31:12,705
Seven minutes for him to commit
these crimes and cover them up.
468
00:31:14,457 --> 00:31:17,043
Now, the victims were shot
at point-blank range.
469
00:31:17,877 --> 00:31:21,297
There was no blood
on Mr. Elliott's clothes or hands.
470
00:31:22,298 --> 00:31:26,928
That means he would have had to clean up
and change before the deputies arrived.
471
00:31:28,304 --> 00:31:30,264
And that brings us to the gun.
472
00:31:30,348 --> 00:31:34,226
Now, Mr. Golantz
says that this, this cartoon weapon
473
00:31:34,310 --> 00:31:37,688
is somehow proof that Mr. Elliott
must have owned a gun like this.
474
00:31:39,106 --> 00:31:40,983
But if that's true, then where is it?
475
00:31:41,067 --> 00:31:44,654
Where is the real gun
that killed Lara Elliott and Jan Rilz?
476
00:31:45,529 --> 00:31:47,323
Where are the bloody clothes?
477
00:31:47,406 --> 00:31:49,408
Now, the beach house is on top of a hill.
478
00:31:49,492 --> 00:31:51,869
It's a ten-minute drive down to the PCH,
479
00:31:51,953 --> 00:31:56,707
and the police searched the entire area
with dogs and found nothing.
480
00:31:56,791 --> 00:32:01,003
Nothing. And Mr. Golantz wants you
to believe that in seven minutes,
481
00:32:01,087 --> 00:32:06,092
seven minutes, Mr. Elliott shot his wife
and her lover, cleaned up,
482
00:32:06,175 --> 00:32:09,804
and disposed of the evidence
where the police could never find it.
483
00:32:09,887 --> 00:32:12,765
It's impossible.
And that is what math tells us.
484
00:32:13,766 --> 00:32:17,269
It tells us that Mr. Elliott didn't do it,
485
00:32:18,312 --> 00:32:23,067
and the real killer, whoever he was,
took the evidence with him.
486
00:32:23,776 --> 00:32:27,071
So, who else had a motive
to kill Jan Rilz and Lara Elliott?
487
00:32:28,030 --> 00:32:33,494
Who did Detective Kinder ignore
as a suspect until he was put under oath?
488
00:32:33,577 --> 00:32:37,999
Who do we know carries a gun because
he told us so when he was on the stand?
489
00:32:41,544 --> 00:32:42,670
Anton Shavar.
490
00:32:44,380 --> 00:32:47,466
A jealous husband,
who, unlike Trevor Elliott,
491
00:32:47,550 --> 00:32:49,677
has a long history of violence.
492
00:32:51,637 --> 00:32:55,266
Now, Mr. Golantz asked you
to use common sense and logic,
493
00:32:55,349 --> 00:32:56,684
and I couldn't agree more.
494
00:32:58,811 --> 00:33:03,274
But don't let yourself be manipulated
by cheap, emotional tricks.
495
00:33:03,357 --> 00:33:05,609
With common sense and logic as your guide,
496
00:33:05,693 --> 00:33:11,073
you will find that Mr. Elliott could not
possibly have committed these crimes.
497
00:33:12,533 --> 00:33:17,580
And I am confident that you
will return a verdict of not guilty.
498
00:33:22,543 --> 00:33:23,502
Thank you.
499
00:33:40,644 --> 00:33:43,647
-I talked to Tanya. [clears throat]
-[Maggie] And?
500
00:33:43,731 --> 00:33:45,149
And I don't like it, Maggie.
501
00:33:46,025 --> 00:33:47,151
But it's up to her.
502
00:33:48,069 --> 00:33:50,780
And listen, Mags,
the second you see any trouble,
503
00:33:50,863 --> 00:33:52,782
you get her out of there. All right?
504
00:33:52,865 --> 00:33:55,201
I promise. And Mickey, thank you.
505
00:34:07,838 --> 00:34:08,798
[cell phone chimes]
506
00:34:13,469 --> 00:34:17,765
[Cisco] Trevor's story
about Sergei Kosevich, it's bullshit.
507
00:34:17,848 --> 00:34:20,976
-[Mickey] Based on what?
-Corporate records of Trevor's company.
508
00:34:21,685 --> 00:34:25,648
Turns out the investors are legit.
Usual venture capital crowd.
509
00:34:25,731 --> 00:34:29,068
Well, that's because
Kosevich is a silent partner.
510
00:34:29,819 --> 00:34:31,987
Trevor would never admit
he was funded by a thug.
511
00:34:32,071 --> 00:34:35,533
[Cisco] I thought so, too.
So I went straight to the source.
512
00:34:35,616 --> 00:34:37,701
Kosevich's son, Pavel.
513
00:34:37,785 --> 00:34:42,164
-That's Trevor's roommate at Stanford.
-Took me a while to reach him.
514
00:34:42,248 --> 00:34:45,167
And the minute I mentioned Trevor,
the guy hung up on me.
515
00:34:45,251 --> 00:34:47,670
-Which proves nothing.
-Yes, and no.
516
00:34:47,753 --> 00:34:50,256
Turns out there was
a third roommate at Stanford.
517
00:34:50,339 --> 00:34:54,844
Ben Hoffman.
He's the CTO of Pavel's company.
518
00:34:55,636 --> 00:34:57,471
Him, I got through to.
519
00:34:58,097 --> 00:35:00,933
He says Pavel hated Trevor's guts,
520
00:35:01,016 --> 00:35:04,395
and that his dad was never
gonna finance anything of Trevor's.
521
00:35:04,478 --> 00:35:07,273
-Still, it doesn't prove anything.
-Maybe not.
522
00:35:08,774 --> 00:35:13,821
But Trevor took the stand
when the case was already won.
523
00:35:13,904 --> 00:35:16,031
Now, would he actually do that
524
00:35:16,115 --> 00:35:19,952
if he had a Russian mobster
holding a gun to his head?
525
00:35:22,580 --> 00:35:23,622
[Mickey sighs]
526
00:35:24,415 --> 00:35:26,125
You don't let anything go, do you?
527
00:35:26,208 --> 00:35:29,587
Yeah, well, you didn't hire me
just to tell you what you wanna hear.
528
00:35:30,337 --> 00:35:36,218
The question is, if it's not the Russians,
then who the fuck has been following you?
529
00:35:37,678 --> 00:35:39,013
[cell phone ringing]
530
00:35:43,851 --> 00:35:45,519
Mickey Haller.
531
00:35:45,603 --> 00:35:47,438
Yes, I'll be right there. Thank you.
532
00:35:50,107 --> 00:35:51,066
Jury's back.
533
00:35:56,989 --> 00:35:59,950
-Has the jury reached a verdict?
-[juror] We have, Your Honor.
534
00:36:24,850 --> 00:36:26,602
[Stanton] The defendant will stand.
535
00:36:33,442 --> 00:36:34,693
You may read the verdict.
536
00:36:37,947 --> 00:36:40,741
"In the matter of the
State of California vs. Trevor Elliott,
537
00:36:40,824 --> 00:36:43,744
on the charge
of first-degree murder of Jan Rilz,
538
00:36:43,827 --> 00:36:46,622
we find the defendant not guilty."

00:36:49,416 --> 00:36:50,417
No.

[juror] "On the charge
of first-degree murder of Lara Elliott,
542
00:36:57,383 --> 00:36:59,343
we find the defendant not guilty."

544
00:37:07,226 --> 00:37:09,144
[Stanton] Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury,
545
00:37:09,228 --> 00:37:12,439
I want to thank you
for your service and deliberation.
546
00:37:12,523 --> 00:37:14,692
Mr. Elliott, you're free to go.
547
00:37:14,775 --> 00:37:16,151

[Lorna speaks Spanish]

00:38:07,202 --> 00:38:10,914
[in English] We have champagne and
sparkling grape juice for you and Izzy.
552
00:38:10,998 --> 00:38:14,543
[Mickey] You guys celebrate.
I've got somewhere I have to go.
553
00:38:14,626 --> 00:38:17,588
Mick? Are you sure you're okay?
554
00:38:18,422 --> 00:38:19,423
I will be.
555
00:38:27,765 --> 00:38:28,766
What is this?
556
00:38:30,642 --> 00:38:32,561
I already signed my plea deal.
557
00:38:33,437 --> 00:38:37,358
It's an affidavit, signed by me.
558
00:38:39,443 --> 00:38:40,652
You were right, Eli.
559
00:38:41,820 --> 00:38:43,197
Jerry dumped you here
560
00:38:44,114 --> 00:38:45,240
and did it to hide evidence
561
00:38:45,324 --> 00:38:47,951
from the prosecution
on the Trevor Elliott case.
562
00:38:49,161 --> 00:38:51,997
You were collateral damage.
563
00:38:53,290 --> 00:38:54,917
And why are you doing this?
564
00:38:59,922 --> 00:39:04,218
Well, because you lost
six months of your life here,
565
00:39:04,301 --> 00:39:06,678
so Jerry could--
566
00:39:07,638 --> 00:39:11,141
So I could win a case, and it's not right.
567
00:39:13,102 --> 00:39:15,312
This is going to give me
my six months back?
568
00:39:15,396 --> 00:39:18,857
No, but you can use it
to sue Jerry Vincent's estate.
569
00:39:19,775 --> 00:39:21,527
He had malpractice insurance.
570
00:39:22,277 --> 00:39:25,823
That money can help you get back
on your feet once you're out of prison.
571
00:39:27,116 --> 00:39:29,993
And here I thought
all you lawyers stuck together.
572
00:39:30,077 --> 00:39:32,663
[Mickey] There's a lot of things
I would do to win a case.
573
00:39:32,746 --> 00:39:38,919
I will walk right up to the line,
but I won't sell out a client, ever.

[indistinct chatter on TV]

00:39:47,094 --> 00:39:48,887
Look who's on the TV news.
576
00:39:49,805 --> 00:39:53,058
I do wanna say something to the LAPD.
577
00:39:54,435 --> 00:39:58,105
Do your job. Lara's killer's out there.
578
00:39:58,188 --> 00:40:00,858
I'm not gonna rest
until they're brought to justice.
579
00:40:00,941 --> 00:40:03,026
[Eli] Kinda worked out
for you though, didn't it?
580
00:40:03,819 --> 00:40:05,487
Jerry did all the dirty work.
581
00:40:05,571 --> 00:40:07,489
[Trevor] Lara was the love of my life…
582
00:40:08,532 --> 00:40:10,033
You got all the glory.
583
00:40:11,201 --> 00:40:13,787
[Trevor] And I will continue
to work tirelessly
584
00:40:13,871 --> 00:40:16,457
to celebrate her memory. Thank you.
585
00:40:20,127 --> 00:40:23,338
Cisco, you know those records
you found on Parallax?
586
00:40:23,422 --> 00:40:25,507
I need you to find something else for me.

What happened?
593
00:41:04,421 --> 00:41:06,340
I thought they got to you too.
594
00:41:07,883 --> 00:41:09,176
[in English] Who?
595

Angelo, you're scaring me.

00:41:16,850 --> 00:41:19,144
-What?
-It's just a weak signal.
599
00:41:19,895 --> 00:41:20,854

I'm sorry, I'm just upset.
Someone has been talking to the police.
602
00:41:27,736 --> 00:41:30,280
They questioned an employee,
he told me what they said.
603
00:41:30,364 --> 00:41:35,077
But couldn't he be the one lying to you?
604
00:41:39,581 --> 00:41:43,126
[in Tagalog] I'm surrounded by snakes!
605
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,507
[in English] Angelo, it's okay.
It's okay. Come here.
606
00:41:50,717 --> 00:41:52,844
[Angelo] Don't believe anything
you hear about me.
607
00:41:52,928 --> 00:41:53,804
Anything?
608
00:41:53,887 --> 00:41:55,305
-[Angelo] I'm a good person.
-Yeah.
609
00:41:55,389 --> 00:41:57,891
[Angelo] All I've done
is give people better lives.
610
00:41:57,975 --> 00:41:59,101
She's got him talking.

How is my life better?

00:42:06,608 --> 00:42:07,609

-Oh, shit.
-What?

-[Angelo] I've given you everything.
-Girl's improvising.
615
00:42:13,031 --> 00:42:15,367
[Angelo] Everything I do
is for us, our family.
616
00:42:17,828 --> 00:42:21,540
People think you killed that man. Did you?
617
00:42:21,623 --> 00:42:23,250
-Don't ask me that.
-I need to know.

I can handle anything as long as I know.
620
00:42:26,837 --> 00:42:28,463
-I did what I had to--
-Did you?
621
00:42:28,547 --> 00:42:30,799
Yes, I did it, Tanya!
I did it to protect us!
622
00:42:30,882 --> 00:42:33,468
To protect our baby! Now, enough!
623
00:42:36,054 --> 00:42:40,350
It's okay, it's okay. You did it for us.
624
00:42:45,188 --> 00:42:46,523
No. No.
625
00:42:48,317 --> 00:42:50,193
The police said someone betrayed me.
626
00:42:52,696 --> 00:42:56,199
-What if it's you?
-Why would I talk to the police?
627
00:42:56,283 --> 00:42:57,784
I don't know anything.
628
00:42:59,244 --> 00:43:00,704
You do now.
629
00:43:12,132 --> 00:43:13,675
Angelo, please.
630
00:43:17,471 --> 00:43:22,768
[in Tagalog] Have you done this before?
Or do you need to pay someone to do it?

[Lankford] Angelo Soto,
you're under arrest.
637

Turn around, get on the fucking ground,
and put your hands behind your head.

You'll never make any of this stick,
you know that, right?
641
00:43:56,551 --> 00:43:59,388
Watch me. You okay?
642
00:44:02,099 --> 00:44:03,058
You did great.
643
00:44:03,809 --> 00:44:06,561
Thank you. Okay. You're good.
644
00:44:06,645 --> 00:44:08,772
[dance music playing over speakers]
645
00:44:09,523 --> 00:44:11,733
[woman] Mr. Haller,
I'm so glad you could make it.
646
00:44:11,817 --> 00:44:12,693
Trevor's at the bar.
647
00:44:12,776 --> 00:44:14,361
[inaudible conversation]
648
00:44:15,654 --> 00:44:18,031
I think I've got his attention, thank you.
649
00:44:18,115 --> 00:44:20,951
There you are. I was talking to
the media outside the courthouse,
650
00:44:21,034 --> 00:44:24,496
-I blinked, and you're gone.
-I told you, I'm not a celebrity lawyer.
651
00:44:24,579 --> 00:44:27,958
Come on, don't be modest.
This win puts you in a whole new league.
652
00:44:28,041 --> 00:44:29,960
You mean those guys?
653
00:44:30,043 --> 00:44:32,504
I bet I could find
a potential client over there.
654
00:44:32,587 --> 00:44:35,215
I hope not.
Those are the ones acquiring my company.
655
00:44:35,298 --> 00:44:38,510
And I owe it all to you, Mickey. Cheers.
656
00:44:38,593 --> 00:44:41,763
It looks like we both got
what we wanted. [scoffs]
657
00:44:41,847 --> 00:44:43,724
Too bad Lara didn't.
658
00:44:45,475 --> 00:44:48,812
-What is it you think Lara wanted?
-For the truth to come out.
659
00:44:50,313 --> 00:44:55,193
Relax, Trevor. You don't just have
attorney-client privilege now,
660
00:44:55,277 --> 00:44:56,903
you've got double jeopardy too.
661
00:44:57,821 --> 00:45:00,574
No one will ever
know your secret, at least not from me.
662
00:45:02,367 --> 00:45:06,872
So the, uh, lawyer
that advertises on bus benches
663
00:45:06,955 --> 00:45:09,207
has come down here to put me in my place.
664
00:45:09,291 --> 00:45:12,419
You played me, Trevor. I don't get played.
665
00:45:12,502 --> 00:45:17,007
[sighs] I was so caught up in getting back
to the top, I forgot the first rule.
666
00:45:17,090 --> 00:45:20,218
-Which is?
-Everybody lies.
667
00:45:22,596 --> 00:45:26,308
She did all the dirty work
and you got all the glory.
668
00:45:26,391 --> 00:45:29,394
I'm sorry, Mickey. I'm just not following.
669
00:45:29,478 --> 00:45:32,189
Sonia Patel said that
Lara was a brilliant coder.
670
00:45:33,106 --> 00:45:36,109
Yet she quit her job to follow you? Why?
671
00:45:36,902 --> 00:45:38,361
Because she loved me, Mickey.
672
00:45:38,445 --> 00:45:42,115
Because she's the one who did it. Not you.
673
00:45:42,199 --> 00:45:47,287
Those hundred lines of code that changed
everything. Lara wrote them. Didn't she?
674
00:45:47,370 --> 00:45:52,667
Except she was working for Chaos Games.
So whatever she created belonged to them.
675
00:45:52,751 --> 00:45:57,047
But if you created it instead of her,
then it belonged to you.
676
00:45:57,839 --> 00:46:00,842
She was the genius, not you.
677
00:46:00,926 --> 00:46:03,678
For ten years,
she had to watch you take all the credit.
678
00:46:06,473 --> 00:46:10,060
That's quite a story.
I just have one question,
679
00:46:10,143 --> 00:46:13,104
how much blow did you do
before you got here?
680
00:46:13,772 --> 00:46:15,190
Like I said, everybody lies.
681
00:46:16,191 --> 00:46:19,194
But even the best liars
give themselves away.
682
00:46:20,362 --> 00:46:24,157
I saw it on the stand.
When Golantz asked you about Sonia.
683
00:46:24,241 --> 00:46:27,828
[woman] He rubs his legs.
It can be a sign of deception.
684
00:46:28,787 --> 00:46:31,915
The fight wasn't about Lara
wanting a divorce,
685
00:46:31,998 --> 00:46:34,084
she was gonna tell Sonia the truth.
686
00:46:35,085 --> 00:46:39,756
She was gonna go back to Chaos Games,
take back what was rightfully hers.
687
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:41,174
And if she did that,
688
00:46:42,884 --> 00:46:44,427
all this goes away.
689
00:46:46,847 --> 00:46:49,349
And everybody finds out you're a fraud.
690
00:46:51,309 --> 00:46:52,769
You know, couple weeks ago,
691
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:57,482
you came down to my office
to beg me for a job.
692
00:46:58,233 --> 00:47:01,778
Yeah. And you told me
that my previous attorney was good,
693
00:47:01,862 --> 00:47:04,114
but that you were better.
694
00:47:04,197 --> 00:47:07,117
And you know what, Mickey?
You're absolutely right.
695
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:11,580
You did a fantastic job defending me.
You asked all the key questions.
696
00:47:13,456 --> 00:47:16,877
Where is the gun?
Where are the bloody clothes?
697
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,963
How could he have gotten rid
of all of that in--
698
00:47:20,046 --> 00:47:23,383
What was it? Seven minutes?
699
00:47:25,010 --> 00:47:29,389
Well, you showed me how you did that too.
I was just too blind to see it at first.
700
00:47:31,016 --> 00:47:34,895
Your drone.
You know what the best part is?
701
00:47:34,978 --> 00:47:37,772
I watched you do it. We all did.
702
00:47:38,523 --> 00:47:41,443
You weren't checking your emails
when the cops arrived.
703
00:47:41,526 --> 00:47:45,113
You were controlling the drone that was
carrying the gun and your clothes.
704
00:47:45,196 --> 00:47:47,240
You sent it out over the ocean
705
00:47:47,324 --> 00:47:49,618
till it sank
where no one would ever find it.
706
00:47:50,243 --> 00:47:52,454
I gotta hand it to you, that was clever.
707
00:47:53,330 --> 00:47:58,585
If you really believe all that is true,
you must think I'm a monster.
708
00:47:59,252 --> 00:48:03,423
I'll tell you exactly what you are,
Trevor. You're an addict.
709
00:48:03,506 --> 00:48:07,052
There must be some rush
to have people think you're a genius.
710
00:48:07,886 --> 00:48:09,721
You'd do anything to chase it.
711
00:48:09,804 --> 00:48:13,850
Even take the stand
when the case was already won.
712
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:16,853
[chuckles]
713
00:48:16,937 --> 00:48:20,607
Hey, come on. How much do you want?
714
00:48:20,690 --> 00:48:22,776
That's what this is, right?
The shakedown.
715
00:48:22,859 --> 00:48:24,527
I don't want your fucking money.
716
00:48:24,611 --> 00:48:27,697
-No?
-I wanna know who's behind it.
717
00:48:27,781 --> 00:48:32,077
The bribe, killing Jerry,
having me followed. I mean, was it you?
718
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:34,037
Because I don't like to be a pawn.
719
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:39,417
We're all pawns sometimes, Mickey.
Jerry kept me out of the loop.
720
00:48:39,501 --> 00:48:42,587
Honestly, I have no idea who killed him.
721
00:48:42,671 --> 00:48:46,716
Frankly… I don't care.
722
00:48:51,304 --> 00:48:55,850
You know, I didn't understand why
Jerry left me his cases, and now I do.
723
00:48:57,978 --> 00:48:59,771
He thought we were the same.
724
00:48:59,854 --> 00:49:03,984
A lawyer who needed this so badly,
he'd go along with a bribed juror.
725
00:49:04,067 --> 00:49:06,444
You thought so too.
Until I threatened to quit.
726
00:49:06,528 --> 00:49:09,823
That's why you told me
that bullshit story about the Russians.
727
00:49:10,573 --> 00:49:11,825
I did my due diligence.
728
00:49:11,908 --> 00:49:14,995
I realized you were a man
who might need a little extra incentive.
729
00:49:15,954 --> 00:49:17,539
To believe you were innocent?
730
00:49:17,622 --> 00:49:20,875
You know, the secret
to a successful video game?
731
00:49:22,669 --> 00:49:26,548
You have to keep
the player engaged, you know?
732
00:49:26,631 --> 00:49:29,884
You have to curate their reality.
733
00:49:31,011 --> 00:49:33,263
And right now, all this…
734
00:49:35,765 --> 00:49:36,975
This is my reality.
735
00:49:39,811 --> 00:49:41,813
That's one thing you're good at, Trevor.
736
00:49:42,856 --> 00:49:44,232
Making it look real.
737
00:49:59,372 --> 00:50:01,166
[cell phone ringing]
738
00:50:01,249 --> 00:50:03,918
I don't wanna hear
anything else about Trevor Elliott.
739
00:50:04,002 --> 00:50:08,923
Well, then you're in luck. Glory Days
is flying in tomorrow to see Raj.
740
00:50:09,007 --> 00:50:10,383
You want me to go meet her?
741
00:50:11,301 --> 00:50:14,554
Ah, no, just text me the details.
I'll handle it.
742
00:50:14,637 --> 00:50:18,516
-Good job, Cisco.
-No biggie. And Mick?
743
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:20,935
-Yeah?
-Take the win.
744
00:50:21,978 --> 00:50:23,605
Hell of a thing you did today.
745
00:50:23,688 --> 00:50:25,148
[sighs]
746
00:50:29,861 --> 00:50:31,446
[cell phone ringing]
747
00:50:31,529 --> 00:50:34,532
-What is it, Cisco?
-[man] Is this Michael Haller?
748
00:50:35,700 --> 00:50:36,868
Who's this?
749
00:50:38,119 --> 00:50:41,790
This is officer Anthony Reyes,
LAPD, Valley traffic division.
750
00:50:41,873 --> 00:50:42,957
How can I help you?
751
00:50:43,833 --> 00:50:47,504
I don't know, sir, we pulled over
Izzy Letts at Griffith Park Overlook
752
00:50:47,587 --> 00:50:48,838
on suspicion of DUI.
753
00:50:48,922 --> 00:50:51,591
She gave me your card
and asked me to call her lawyer,
754
00:50:51,674 --> 00:50:53,093
then she kinda passed out.
755
00:50:54,636 --> 00:50:59,057
I was about to go off duty, but I'm gonna
have to impound her car, book her unless…
756
00:50:59,140 --> 00:51:00,642
If you can get here quickly.
757
00:51:00,725 --> 00:51:04,104
Just give me 15 minutes,
I'm on my way, all right? Thank you.
758
00:51:04,854 --> 00:51:06,815
[car tires screech]
759
00:51:40,557 --> 00:51:41,641
[Mickey] Izzy!
760
00:51:55,446 --> 00:51:57,490
[Trevor] You should have
just gone along with it.
761
00:51:58,116 --> 00:51:59,492
You and Vincent.
