1
00:00:05,048 --> 00:00:06,745
MAN:
All right, Timothy.
2
00:00:06,876 --> 00:00:08,399
It is go time, brother. Okay?
3
00:00:08,530 --> 00:00:10,575
Now, I need to be
upstairs in five--
4
00:00:10,706 --> 00:00:11,924
make that three-- minutes...
5
00:00:12,055 --> 00:00:13,056
WOMAN:
I'm sorry,
it's this darn chip.
6
00:00:13,187 --> 00:00:14,623
I don't know whether
to-to swipe it
7
00:00:14,753 --> 00:00:16,103
- or tap it or wave it.
- Which means I need to know
8
00:00:16,233 --> 00:00:17,495
the ceiling, okay?
The absolute ceiling that
9
00:00:17,626 --> 00:00:18,888
your guys are willing to pay.
10
00:00:19,019 --> 00:00:20,020
WOMAN:
Sorry. You know what?
11
00:00:20,150 --> 00:00:21,499
I'll just get cash.
12
00:00:21,630 --> 00:00:23,806
Um, hers is on me.
I'll take a tall drip,
13
00:00:23,936 --> 00:00:26,504
and you can keep the change.
23, great.
14
00:00:26,635 --> 00:00:28,071
Which means
I'm gonna close at 19,
15
00:00:28,202 --> 00:00:29,159
so you remind your bosses
how much I saved them
16
00:00:29,290 --> 00:00:31,248
when they try to fight my bill.
17
00:00:32,902 --> 00:00:36,166
Well, isn't that
a nice way to start the day?
18
00:00:36,297 --> 00:00:38,125
And they say
the world is going to poop.
19
00:00:57,144 --> 00:00:58,754
[sighs]
20
00:01:02,410 --> 00:01:03,498
Ooh.
21
00:01:07,545 --> 00:01:08,546
Oh, dear.
22
00:01:08,677 --> 00:01:10,418
I got you.
23
00:01:10,548 --> 00:01:13,377
Oh. Well, this is the day
of kind gestures.
24
00:01:13,508 --> 00:01:15,292
I can't thank you enough.
25
00:01:15,423 --> 00:01:17,555
May I offer you one?
26
00:01:17,686 --> 00:01:19,949
Oh. My grandma loves these.[laughs]
27
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,342
It's biological.
28
00:01:21,472 --> 00:01:24,084
We hit a certain age
and we start buying 'em.
29
00:01:24,214 --> 00:01:27,391
Believe you me,
I tried to resist,
30
00:01:27,522 --> 00:01:29,263
and then I turned 65,
and next thing I know,
31
00:01:29,393 --> 00:01:31,961
I'm standing smack-dab
in the middle of a Costco
32
00:01:32,092 --> 00:01:33,180
with a four-pound bag.
33
00:01:33,310 --> 00:01:34,529
[both laugh]
34
00:01:34,659 --> 00:01:36,618
Uh, 21st floor, please.
35
00:01:38,968 --> 00:01:40,404
I guess that's the thing.
36
00:01:40,535 --> 00:01:43,364
Lots of times in life,
we become exactly who
37
00:01:43,494 --> 00:01:45,540
people expect us to be.[elevator bell dings]
38
00:01:45,670 --> 00:01:46,845
Bye-bye.
39
00:01:46,976 --> 00:01:48,499
Bye.
40
00:01:48,630 --> 00:01:50,762
Kristine, can you buzz me in?
Hands are full.
41
00:01:51,894 --> 00:01:53,113
[buzzer sounds]
42
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,015
ELIJAH:
Hello and happy Monday.
43
00:02:26,146 --> 00:02:28,278
Before we dive in,
44
00:02:28,409 --> 00:02:30,541
my deep condolences
to all you Mets fans.
45
00:02:30,672 --> 00:02:31,977
All right, that's... yes.
46
00:02:32,108 --> 00:02:34,110
Yeah, I heard a bunch
of you went to the game.
47
00:02:34,241 --> 00:02:35,720
Team building.
It's good for morale.
48
00:02:35,851 --> 00:02:37,853
Shows that even though
I'm an equity partner now,
49
00:02:37,983 --> 00:02:39,028
I am still one of you,
50
00:02:39,159 --> 00:02:40,638
a regular partner
at heart,
51
00:02:40,769 --> 00:02:42,423
if not in salary.
52
00:02:42,553 --> 00:02:44,164
[laughter]
Here we go.
53
00:02:44,294 --> 00:02:45,643
Olympia, I heard
you got a $2 million offer
54
00:02:45,774 --> 00:02:47,515
to settle
the Harris civil action.
55
00:02:47,645 --> 00:02:50,039
- Yes, and I rejected it.
- That trial is slated
to start
56
00:02:50,170 --> 00:02:52,911
tomorrow, and you cannot go
to trial under any circumstance.
57
00:02:53,042 --> 00:02:54,086
And I will be closing,
58
00:02:54,217 --> 00:02:55,871
but $2 million
is not enough, Elijah.
59
00:02:56,001 --> 00:02:59,179
Raymond Harris lost
26 years of his life.
60
00:02:59,309 --> 00:03:00,615
I need $4 million, minimum.
61
00:03:00,745 --> 00:03:02,356
20 if I can just find
the smoking gun
62
00:03:02,486 --> 00:03:04,227
to prove that there was
police corruption.
63
00:03:04,358 --> 00:03:06,098
JULIAN:You've been looking
for six months.
64
00:03:06,229 --> 00:03:09,014
Well, I haven't
been allocated the
proper resources,
65
00:03:09,145 --> 00:03:10,668
- Julian.
- You have two associates
66
00:03:10,799 --> 00:03:12,583
working around the clock.
67
00:03:12,714 --> 00:03:14,716
Two very junior associates who
equal one mediocre associate.
68
00:03:14,846 --> 00:03:16,370
Is that your way
of building morale?
69
00:03:17,414 --> 00:03:19,590
Look, I might have a new lead.
70
00:03:19,721 --> 00:03:21,636
A sketch of the prostitute...
71
00:03:21,766 --> 00:03:22,637
ELIJAH:
It's over, Olympia,
72
00:03:22,767 --> 00:03:23,638
close the case.
73
00:03:23,768 --> 00:03:25,030
Julian,
74
00:03:25,161 --> 00:03:26,249
talk to me about Peabody.
75
00:03:26,380 --> 00:03:28,512
We back-channeled
last night,
76
00:03:28,643 --> 00:03:31,994
and I got them
up to $19 million.
77
00:03:32,124 --> 00:03:33,169
MATTY:
Actually, you can get
78
00:03:33,300 --> 00:03:35,345
quite a bit more
out of Peabody.
79
00:03:37,042 --> 00:03:38,740
Uh, who are you?[chuckles]
80
00:03:38,870 --> 00:03:41,743
Sorry, I got a little ahead
of myself in my excitement.
81
00:03:41,873 --> 00:03:43,832
I'm Matty, informally.
82
00:03:43,962 --> 00:03:45,573
Formally Madeline Matlock.
83
00:03:45,703 --> 00:03:48,532
Yes, Matlock like
the old TV show,
84
00:03:48,663 --> 00:03:52,841
which was all I heard
between 1984 and 1992.
85
00:03:52,971 --> 00:03:56,061
"You're a lawyer like Matlock.
You're a lawyer like Matlock."
86
00:03:56,192 --> 00:03:57,933
And every time
I'd correct 'em,
87
00:03:58,063 --> 00:03:59,674
"No, he's just pretending.
88
00:03:59,804 --> 00:04:01,241
You know, I'm a real lawyer."
89
00:04:01,371 --> 00:04:03,721
But, you know,
you can only protest so much
90
00:04:03,852 --> 00:04:06,550
before you sound like you got
a big old pole up your heinie,
91
00:04:06,681 --> 00:04:08,552
so I just let
'em have it
92
00:04:08,683 --> 00:04:09,597
and I just said,
"Yeah, well, yeah,
93
00:04:09,727 --> 00:04:12,426
I'm a lawyer just like Matlock."
94
00:04:12,556 --> 00:04:13,992
A lawyer working for...
95
00:04:14,123 --> 00:04:15,690
You, hopefully.
96
00:04:15,820 --> 00:04:17,692
You have an associate
position open,
97
00:04:17,822 --> 00:04:21,086
and it's been really hard
to get an interview.
98
00:04:21,217 --> 00:04:23,567
And I almost think
it's 'cause of my age,
99
00:04:23,698 --> 00:04:27,179
but that'd be violating
discriminatory protections.
100
00:04:27,310 --> 00:04:29,094
The point is, I just
had to figure out
101
00:04:29,225 --> 00:04:31,096
a way to break
through the noise.
102
00:04:31,227 --> 00:04:32,968
I think you definitely
earned yourself an interview.
103
00:04:33,098 --> 00:04:34,448
Well, thank you for that,
104
00:04:34,578 --> 00:04:36,885
but I don't want an interview.
105
00:04:37,015 --> 00:04:37,973
I want a job.
106
00:04:38,103 --> 00:04:39,975
And as a reminder,
107
00:04:40,105 --> 00:04:41,803
I do know the
number that Peabody
108
00:04:41,933 --> 00:04:43,370
is willing to pay,
109
00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:45,850
and it is significantly higher
than $19 million.
110
00:04:45,981 --> 00:04:49,027
Course, I wouldn't overplay
my hand with Peabody either.
111
00:04:49,158 --> 00:04:52,335
I always say
negotiations are an art
112
00:04:52,466 --> 00:04:54,772
and a trap.
113
00:04:54,903 --> 00:04:56,861
Let's avoid traps, then.
How do you know the number?
114
00:04:56,992 --> 00:04:58,472
Well, you see,
there's this funny thing
115
00:04:58,602 --> 00:05:00,343
that happens when women age.
116
00:05:00,474 --> 00:05:02,606
We become damn near invisible.
117
00:05:02,737 --> 00:05:04,869
Oh, not that I'm complaining.
118
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,307
I had my moment in the sun.
119
00:05:07,437 --> 00:05:11,963
Plus it's useful
because nobody sees us coming.
120
00:05:12,094 --> 00:05:14,401
That's how I got
through your security.
121
00:05:14,531 --> 00:05:16,054
Several times.
122
00:05:16,185 --> 00:05:17,621
And it's also
how I knew that
123
00:05:17,752 --> 00:05:19,667
Peabody's counsel
grabs coffee
124
00:05:19,797 --> 00:05:22,844
and updates his client
between 8:15 and 8:25.
125
00:05:22,974 --> 00:05:23,845
What's the number?
126
00:05:23,975 --> 00:05:25,455
Am I hired?
127
00:05:25,586 --> 00:05:27,544
SENIOR:
No one is hired
without a two-week trial.
128
00:05:27,675 --> 00:05:29,503
What's their ceiling?
129
00:05:29,633 --> 00:05:31,200
$23 million.
130
00:05:31,331 --> 00:05:32,288
Which means
I just made you
131
00:05:32,419 --> 00:05:33,985
$4 million.
132
00:05:34,116 --> 00:05:36,205
Do I still need
a two-week trial?
133
00:05:36,336 --> 00:05:38,468
Yes.
134
00:05:38,599 --> 00:05:41,079
All right, fine.
I'll start today.
135
00:05:41,210 --> 00:05:44,256
Tell me, Ms. Matlock,
136
00:05:44,387 --> 00:05:47,434
why do you want
to work at my firm?
137
00:05:48,478 --> 00:05:50,306
There's a time in life
when you make decisions
138
00:05:50,437 --> 00:05:52,003
based on
what you think is right,
139
00:05:52,134 --> 00:05:55,050
and there's a time when you make
decisions based on money.
140
00:05:55,180 --> 00:05:58,445
I did what was right
all my life, and now
141
00:05:58,575 --> 00:06:00,229
I need to make it rain,
142
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,231
so point me to a case
143
00:06:02,362 --> 00:06:04,276
and put me to work.
144
00:06:04,407 --> 00:06:07,671
She did ask
for extra resources.
145
00:06:13,938 --> 00:06:15,940
We seem to have gotten
off on the wrong foot.
146
00:06:16,071 --> 00:06:18,029
Wow, that is
quite the pace.
147
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,249
Um, I just truly
want to be useful.
148
00:06:20,380 --> 00:06:21,468
Anything you need.
Competence.
149
00:06:21,598 --> 00:06:22,773
I need basic competence.
150
00:06:22,904 --> 00:06:24,122
When was the last time
you practiced law?
151
00:06:24,253 --> 00:06:27,038
Um, well, that
was in 1991.
152
00:06:27,169 --> 00:06:29,737
And I understand 30 years
can seem challenging,
153
00:06:29,867 --> 00:06:32,435
but I assure you, I have
remained pretty...
154
00:06:32,566 --> 00:06:34,089
nearly up to date.
155
00:06:34,219 --> 00:06:35,090
"Pretty nearly"
or "almost sorta"?
156
00:06:35,220 --> 00:06:36,613
Just let me prove that
157
00:06:36,744 --> 00:06:39,268
I can be useful.
Tell me how to do that.
158
00:06:43,141 --> 00:06:45,622
Get me all of Thanksgiving.
159
00:06:45,753 --> 00:06:47,537
I'm sorry, I'm not following.
160
00:06:47,668 --> 00:06:49,539
I charge $1,200 an hour,
so clear that up
161
00:06:49,670 --> 00:06:51,236
with somebody
whose time you can afford.
162
00:06:51,367 --> 00:06:53,978
- You two, anything?
- Nothing, no, not yet.
163
00:06:54,109 --> 00:06:55,676
Remember what we talked about?
That should have been one word.
164
00:06:55,806 --> 00:06:56,894
Now, the call's coming in
any minute.
165
00:06:57,025 --> 00:06:58,418
Meet me in the conference room
166
00:06:58,548 --> 00:07:00,724
and bring the new lawyer
with you.
167
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:06,861
Madeline Matlock.
168
00:07:06,991 --> 00:07:08,602
Like the TV show.
169
00:07:08,732 --> 00:07:09,733
What TV show?
170
00:07:09,864 --> 00:07:11,953
Exactly. You can call me Matty.
171
00:07:12,083 --> 00:07:13,781
First day on the job,
172
00:07:13,911 --> 00:07:15,260
thrilled to be
part of the team.
173
00:07:15,391 --> 00:07:16,827
Oh, no.
This is gonna be a nightmare.
174
00:07:16,958 --> 00:07:18,438
Be nice.
Nice?
175
00:07:18,568 --> 00:07:20,614
Don't tell me to be nice.
I need to be trained by
176
00:07:20,744 --> 00:07:22,137
senior partners,
not senior citizens.
177
00:07:22,267 --> 00:07:23,965
- Oh, God.
- No offense, Perry Mason.
178
00:07:24,095 --> 00:07:25,749
Ha, Matlock.
BILLY:
You know, if you
say "no offense,"
179
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:26,663
it doesn't make it
- any less rude.
- We just got demoted
180
00:07:26,794 --> 00:07:28,230
to a third, Billy.
181
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:29,361
[groans]
182
00:07:29,492 --> 00:07:30,624
BILLY:
In Sarah's defense, um,
183
00:07:30,754 --> 00:07:32,800
she's a raging bitch.
[chuckles]
184
00:07:32,930 --> 00:07:34,497
Why is she so pissy?
185
00:07:34,628 --> 00:07:35,933
No social life.
186
00:07:36,064 --> 00:07:37,761
And plus she's
wildly ambitious,
187
00:07:37,892 --> 00:07:39,633
and we've been working on
this case for six months now,
188
00:07:39,763 --> 00:07:42,113
and Olympia still calls
us "youtwo." One word.
189
00:07:42,244 --> 00:07:44,072
So, yeah, you're not
exactly joining the A-team.
190
00:07:44,202 --> 00:07:46,248
Another old TV show
you never heard of?
191
00:07:46,378 --> 00:07:48,642
[chuckles] Well, my abuela
and I watched telenovelas.
192
00:07:48,772 --> 00:07:50,295
You know any of those?
No.
193
00:07:50,426 --> 00:07:51,906
That's fair.
[chuckles]
194
00:07:52,036 --> 00:07:53,385
Hey, before I forget,
195
00:07:53,516 --> 00:07:55,562
Olympia mentioned
I should get her Thanksgiving.
196
00:07:55,692 --> 00:07:57,651
You any idea
what she's talking about?
197
00:07:57,781 --> 00:08:00,349
Uh, probably a
custody thing.
198
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,482
Word is, their divorce
is almost finalized.
199
00:08:02,612 --> 00:08:04,832
FYI, top snack
destination here.
200
00:08:04,962 --> 00:08:06,921
You've got salty,
you've got sweet,
201
00:08:07,051 --> 00:08:09,097
you've got access to the back
patio in case you need to cry.
202
00:08:09,227 --> 00:08:10,968
Well, for the record,
I'm salty.
203
00:08:11,099 --> 00:08:12,404
I'm hoping I won't cry.
204
00:08:12,535 --> 00:08:14,145
You said "their divorce."
205
00:08:14,276 --> 00:08:16,365
Who's Olympia divorcing?
206
00:08:16,496 --> 00:08:17,540
Julian.
207
00:08:17,671 --> 00:08:19,499
Oh, the guy she was
arguing with.
208
00:08:19,629 --> 00:08:21,805
Well, file that under
"Things I'm never gonna
209
00:08:21,936 --> 00:08:24,634
get involved with, no way,
nohow, no, sirree, Bob."
210
00:08:24,765 --> 00:08:26,941
I'm gonna win her over
the old-fashioned way.
211
00:08:27,071 --> 00:08:28,464
Catch me up on the case.
212
00:08:28,595 --> 00:08:32,207
Yep. Raymond Harris
spent 26 years in jail
213
00:08:32,337 --> 00:08:34,601
as a convicted serial
murderer/rapist
214
00:08:34,731 --> 00:08:37,517
but was recently exonerated
through DNA evidence.
215
00:08:37,647 --> 00:08:39,649
Now, the police department was
definitely dirty back then,
216
00:08:39,780 --> 00:08:41,216
tons of misconduct, but
217
00:08:41,346 --> 00:08:42,826
in order to get the
payout that he deserves,
218
00:08:42,957 --> 00:08:45,002
we-- we need to find
the smoking gun.
219
00:08:45,133 --> 00:08:46,961
Why is everybody
so sure there is one?
220
00:08:47,091 --> 00:08:48,528
Well, because we got a tip
from a guy who got a tip
221
00:08:48,658 --> 00:08:50,355
from his dead uncle
who was a retired cop.
222
00:08:50,486 --> 00:08:51,705
- Oh, Lord.
- Yeah.
223
00:08:51,835 --> 00:08:53,620
Anyway, apparently
a prostitute escaped
224
00:08:53,750 --> 00:08:57,014
a really similar attack while
Raymond was still in custody.
225
00:08:57,145 --> 00:08:59,103
Stocking around the
neck, the whole nine.
226
00:08:59,234 --> 00:09:01,410
Word is, she went down to
the station to file a report,
227
00:09:01,541 --> 00:09:02,846
only there's no record of it,
228
00:09:02,977 --> 00:09:04,979
which means if it
exists, it was buried.
229
00:09:05,109 --> 00:09:06,589
Well, I'm guessing
you can't find the prostitute
230
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:07,895
from 26 years ago.
231
00:09:08,025 --> 00:09:09,331
[sighs]
Don't know her name,
232
00:09:09,461 --> 00:09:11,072
much less if she's alive.
233
00:09:11,202 --> 00:09:13,596
Well, there's a lot of
invisible people in the world.
234
00:09:13,727 --> 00:09:15,555
In the partners' meeting,
235
00:09:15,685 --> 00:09:17,774
Olympia said something
about a sketch?
236
00:09:17,905 --> 00:09:19,254
Well, that's complicated.
237
00:09:19,384 --> 00:09:20,951
Uh, I'm sorry.
238
00:09:21,082 --> 00:09:23,475
How-how did you get
into the partners' meeting?
239
00:09:23,606 --> 00:09:25,477
Oh, that's a long story.
240
00:09:25,608 --> 00:09:27,262
I'll tell you about it next time
we share something salty.
241
00:09:27,392 --> 00:09:28,872
Is there anything else
242
00:09:29,003 --> 00:09:31,005
I need to know to get
on Olympia's good side?
243
00:09:31,135 --> 00:09:33,137
Never give your opinion
to a client.
244
00:09:33,268 --> 00:09:34,791
Leave that to her.
245
00:09:36,184 --> 00:09:38,403
Hello, Raymond, Jordan.
246
00:09:38,534 --> 00:09:40,928
Got one more lawyer
as we bring this home.
247
00:09:41,058 --> 00:09:42,451
Please state your name
248
00:09:42,582 --> 00:09:43,800
and whether
you've ever had
249
00:09:43,931 --> 00:09:45,585
any affiliation
with the police department
250
00:09:45,715 --> 00:09:48,326
or with my father's case,
either directly or tangentially.
251
00:09:48,457 --> 00:09:49,458
Jordan likes to
record everything.
252
00:09:49,589 --> 00:09:51,678
I don't like
to record everything,
253
00:09:51,808 --> 00:09:52,766
I have to record everything.
254
00:09:52,896 --> 00:09:54,898
To keep people
accountable.
255
00:09:55,029 --> 00:09:57,771
My father was locked up for
26 years because people lied,
256
00:09:57,901 --> 00:09:59,424
so, if it happens in this room,
257
00:09:59,555 --> 00:10:00,904
I have a record.
258
00:10:01,035 --> 00:10:02,166
I understand.
259
00:10:05,126 --> 00:10:06,693
Apologies.
260
00:10:08,085 --> 00:10:09,434
Madeline Matlock.
261
00:10:09,565 --> 00:10:11,219
I have no affiliation
with the police department
262
00:10:11,349 --> 00:10:12,655
and never have.
263
00:10:14,004 --> 00:10:15,571
JORDAN:
What is it?
264
00:10:15,702 --> 00:10:17,051
What's wrong?
265
00:10:19,488 --> 00:10:21,969
The final settlement offer
came in,
266
00:10:22,099 --> 00:10:24,885
and it's $241,280,
267
00:10:25,015 --> 00:10:26,408
and at this point
I have to ask
268
00:10:26,538 --> 00:10:27,452
if you want to settle.
269
00:10:27,583 --> 00:10:28,453
- What?
- We didn't settle
270
00:10:28,584 --> 00:10:30,194
for $2 million.
271
00:10:30,325 --> 00:10:31,848
What the hell makes you think
we'd settle for $200,000?
272
00:10:31,979 --> 00:10:33,197
Sorry.
273
00:10:33,328 --> 00:10:34,416
- No, no.
- Sorry.
274
00:10:34,546 --> 00:10:36,810
You don't have to apologize.
275
00:10:36,940 --> 00:10:39,247
Okay, I don't understand.
What happened?
276
00:10:39,377 --> 00:10:40,944
I don't know.
277
00:10:41,075 --> 00:10:42,380
But the trial starts tomorrow,
278
00:10:42,511 --> 00:10:44,121
and something changed.
279
00:10:44,252 --> 00:10:45,775
They don't feel like we
can make our case anymore,
280
00:10:45,906 --> 00:10:47,821
and I'm worried.
281
00:10:47,951 --> 00:10:49,474
Without the smoking gun,
282
00:10:49,605 --> 00:10:51,999
given your father's
prior criminal history
283
00:10:52,129 --> 00:10:54,131
and the fact that
he confessed to the crime...
284
00:10:54,262 --> 00:10:55,350
RAYMOND:
Under duress.
285
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,004
- I took it back.
- OLYMPIA: I know.
286
00:10:57,134 --> 00:10:59,963
But that initial confession
means that the city
287
00:11:00,094 --> 00:11:02,531
is not obligated to
pay you anything.
288
00:11:02,662 --> 00:11:06,230
I'm sorry, Raymond, we've just--
289
00:11:06,361 --> 00:11:07,623
we've run out of time.
290
00:11:07,754 --> 00:11:10,017
OLYMPIA [on recording]:
So... you have
291
00:11:10,147 --> 00:11:11,932
a very big decision
to make, Raymond.
292
00:11:12,062 --> 00:11:16,414
Remember this?
This is from our first meeting.
293
00:11:16,545 --> 00:11:17,764
I listen to it a lot.
294
00:11:17,894 --> 00:11:19,635
OLYMPIA:
You've met with a lot
of lawyers,
295
00:11:19,766 --> 00:11:21,419
and I'd like to say
there's no wrong decision,
296
00:11:21,550 --> 00:11:22,638
but you know what?
297
00:11:22,769 --> 00:11:24,814
There is a wrong decision.
298
00:11:24,945 --> 00:11:27,338
But that also means
there's a right decision.
299
00:11:27,469 --> 00:11:30,254
And I am that right decision
300
00:11:30,385 --> 00:11:33,431
because I believe in you,
Raymond.
301
00:11:33,562 --> 00:11:36,086
And I care that this
corrupt police department
302
00:11:36,217 --> 00:11:39,133
stole your future.
303
00:11:39,263 --> 00:11:43,703
Trust me. Trust me.
304
00:11:51,232 --> 00:11:53,147
What do you think?
305
00:11:53,277 --> 00:11:55,932
Um...
306
00:11:56,063 --> 00:11:57,194
Go on.
307
00:11:57,325 --> 00:11:59,719
If you have an opinion, give it.
308
00:12:05,986 --> 00:12:09,337
Their offer's insulting.
Go to trial.
309
00:12:09,467 --> 00:12:11,208
JORDAN:
I agree.
310
00:12:11,339 --> 00:12:15,560
You said you'd come through,
so come through.
311
00:12:25,614 --> 00:12:27,398
You think Olympia's blaming me
for going to trial?
312
00:12:27,529 --> 00:12:28,617
- Probably not.
- A hundred percent yes.
313
00:12:28,748 --> 00:12:30,619
I mean, I would.
314
00:12:30,750 --> 00:12:32,099
You're saying
Ms. Matlock convinced them
315
00:12:32,229 --> 00:12:33,491
and one-upped you?
316
00:12:33,622 --> 00:12:35,232
She didn't one-up me.
Now I'm a step closer
317
00:12:35,363 --> 00:12:36,930
to firing her for cause.
318
00:12:37,060 --> 00:12:39,062
And frankly, I didn't want to
convince Raymond to settle.
319
00:12:39,193 --> 00:12:41,064
Unacceptable.
The firm needs you back
320
00:12:41,195 --> 00:12:43,197
on cases that actually
make money.
321
00:12:43,327 --> 00:12:45,025
And I billed more than
any other junior partner
322
00:12:45,155 --> 00:12:46,461
for three straight years.
323
00:12:46,591 --> 00:12:48,028
Yeah, hard to remember
when you've been hunting
324
00:12:48,158 --> 00:12:49,856
goose eggs for six months.
325
00:12:49,986 --> 00:12:51,292
Because I'm trying to establish
326
00:12:51,422 --> 00:12:53,729
a whole new revenue stream
with no support.
327
00:12:53,860 --> 00:12:55,252
I fought off three
separate attempts
328
00:12:55,383 --> 00:12:57,037
to have the venue
changed by myself,
329
00:12:57,167 --> 00:12:59,779
which means the whole jury pool
knows that there has been
330
00:12:59,909 --> 00:13:01,432
extensive police corruption.
331
00:13:01,563 --> 00:13:03,304
And the whole jury pool
knows that because I've
332
00:13:03,434 --> 00:13:04,740
kept the story in the paper.
333
00:13:04,871 --> 00:13:06,220
Which is why the city
was settling.
334
00:13:06,350 --> 00:13:08,265
"Was" being the operative word.
335
00:13:08,396 --> 00:13:10,137
Exactly. And without
a private investigator
336
00:13:10,267 --> 00:13:12,530
or, at the very least,
a jury consultant,
337
00:13:12,661 --> 00:13:14,750
I have no idea what changed.
338
00:13:14,881 --> 00:13:17,709
Well, the firm isn't gonna
pump money into a pro bono case.
339
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,059
Well, ideally,
340
00:13:19,189 --> 00:13:20,756
this isn't pro bono.
It's a test case.
341
00:13:20,887 --> 00:13:23,280
Olympia got burned out
after defending Big Pharma.
342
00:13:23,411 --> 00:13:26,501
Oh, Big Pharma, big money.
That's where I want to be.
343
00:13:26,631 --> 00:13:28,155
So what do you mean
this is a test case?
344
00:13:28,285 --> 00:13:29,896
Well, if Raymond
gets a number
345
00:13:30,026 --> 00:13:31,593
higher than the
national average,
346
00:13:31,723 --> 00:13:33,247
then the firm takes a cut.
347
00:13:33,377 --> 00:13:35,640
So Olympia's argument to
him is that she can get
348
00:13:35,771 --> 00:13:37,381
a much higher number.
349
00:13:37,512 --> 00:13:39,949
And the argument to the
firm is that social justice
350
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:41,124
can mean real money.
351
00:13:41,255 --> 00:13:43,126
So you can do good
and do well.
352
00:13:43,257 --> 00:13:44,475
That's the noble
version, anyway.
353
00:13:44,606 --> 00:13:46,216
What's the non-noble version?
354
00:13:46,347 --> 00:13:48,566
She's figuring out yet another
way to monetize misfortune
355
00:13:48,697 --> 00:13:51,004
because she's
- a freaking genius.
- Mm-hmm.
356
00:13:51,134 --> 00:13:53,615
You're coming up
for senior partnership.
357
00:13:53,745 --> 00:13:56,139
I don't have to remind you
what's at stake.
358
00:13:56,270 --> 00:13:57,488
Then why are you?
359
00:13:57,619 --> 00:14:01,101
Because I'm still
your father-in-law.
360
00:14:01,231 --> 00:14:03,625
The divorce is almost finalized.
361
00:14:03,755 --> 00:14:05,105
You think I give a rat's ass?
362
00:14:05,235 --> 00:14:08,412
Father-in-law is
a lifetime position.
363
00:14:09,674 --> 00:14:11,981
I know what's at stake.
364
00:14:12,112 --> 00:14:13,896
I just want this to work.
365
00:14:14,027 --> 00:14:15,506
I know you do.
366
00:14:15,637 --> 00:14:18,161
But if it doesn't,
367
00:14:18,292 --> 00:14:20,468
you're back on
corporate litigation.
368
00:14:20,598 --> 00:14:22,426
Got it?
369
00:14:22,557 --> 00:14:23,427
OLYMPIA:
So the biggest question
370
00:14:23,558 --> 00:14:25,299
we have to tackle is:
371
00:14:25,429 --> 00:14:27,388
should Raymond be called
to the stand?
372
00:14:27,518 --> 00:14:28,650
What we need is
a jury consultant
373
00:14:28,780 --> 00:14:29,651
so that we can audition
374
00:14:29,781 --> 00:14:31,044
Raymond's testimony,
375
00:14:31,174 --> 00:14:32,872
see how the mock jury
will respond to him.
376
00:14:33,002 --> 00:14:36,005
But unfortunately
we can't afford that.
377
00:14:36,136 --> 00:14:37,746
So you need the
off-brand model, huh?
378
00:14:37,877 --> 00:14:39,966
Or better yet, a freebie.
379
00:14:40,096 --> 00:14:41,097
Which is what I'm
always looking for
380
00:14:41,228 --> 00:14:43,795
since my circumstances changed.
381
00:14:43,926 --> 00:14:46,015
For instance,
I stopped buying ketchup
382
00:14:46,146 --> 00:14:48,148
and I started bringing
ketchup packets home
383
00:14:48,278 --> 00:14:50,193
every time I went out.
384
00:14:50,324 --> 00:14:53,980
And this firm definitely has
a lot of people
385
00:14:54,110 --> 00:14:55,938
who like ketchup.
386
00:14:56,069 --> 00:14:57,635
- What?
- Senior knows
we're moving forward
387
00:14:57,766 --> 00:14:59,028
and he's
the one in charge,
388
00:14:59,159 --> 00:15:00,595
- so give me space.
- I came to offer
389
00:15:00,725 --> 00:15:01,901
my services as second chair
390
00:15:02,031 --> 00:15:03,380
so these last six months
haven't been
391
00:15:03,511 --> 00:15:05,295
a colossal waste of time,
but if you want space...
392
00:15:05,426 --> 00:15:06,862
No, no, no, I don't.
393
00:15:06,993 --> 00:15:08,951
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
394
00:15:09,082 --> 00:15:12,259
Actually, can you look around
the building and find me
395
00:15:12,389 --> 00:15:14,000
two Black men
in their 40s,
396
00:15:14,130 --> 00:15:15,610
a 50-something
Latino man,
397
00:15:15,740 --> 00:15:17,264
a 20-something
Asian woman,
398
00:15:17,394 --> 00:15:18,700
and two white ladies
in their 50s?
399
00:15:18,830 --> 00:15:21,007
Go to the secretaries,
400
00:15:21,137 --> 00:15:22,834
the maintenance department,
food services...
401
00:15:22,965 --> 00:15:24,314
They already work here.
402
00:15:24,445 --> 00:15:26,316
So they're our free
ketchup packets.
403
00:15:26,447 --> 00:15:27,709
We'll match
the demographics
404
00:15:27,839 --> 00:15:30,581
of the jury and preview
Raymond's testimony
405
00:15:30,712 --> 00:15:33,758
with people who are
already here on the clock.
406
00:15:33,889 --> 00:15:35,499
And you three... You know, you can actually
separate us...
407
00:15:35,630 --> 00:15:36,848
Shh!
408
00:15:36,979 --> 00:15:39,503
Go to Sherleen's
and get her sketch. Hmm?
409
00:15:41,331 --> 00:15:43,594
- Who's Sherleen?
- An old ho.
410
00:15:44,769 --> 00:15:46,380
That's what she calls herself.
411
00:15:46,510 --> 00:15:47,772
I said "aging prostitute" once
and she corrected me,
412
00:15:47,903 --> 00:15:50,514
"I'm an old ho."Copy that.
413
00:15:50,645 --> 00:15:52,342
SARAH:
I'm just saying,
414
00:15:52,473 --> 00:15:54,040
MacGyver does a whole
ketchup monologue
415
00:15:54,170 --> 00:15:55,606
and she doesn't
get shushed.
416
00:15:55,737 --> 00:15:57,347
It's-it's Matlock, ha!
417
00:15:57,478 --> 00:15:59,175
Because the ketchup
monologue was useful.
418
00:15:59,306 --> 00:16:00,524
Get over yourself.
419
00:16:00,655 --> 00:16:02,309
FYI, Sherleen's
kind of a nutjob.
420
00:16:02,439 --> 00:16:03,788
But she's worked
the streets a long time
421
00:16:03,919 --> 00:16:05,138
and she says that she remembers
422
00:16:05,268 --> 00:16:06,661
the prostitute
we're looking for.
423
00:16:06,791 --> 00:16:08,880
Just not her name.
Or anything useful.
424
00:16:09,011 --> 00:16:10,360
And, Sarah... Shh.
425
00:16:10,491 --> 00:16:11,753
So petty.
426
00:16:11,883 --> 00:16:13,015
Who's she?
427
00:16:13,146 --> 00:16:16,279
Hey, I'm Matty.
It's nice to meet you.
428
00:16:16,410 --> 00:16:19,369
Wow. I love your place.
429
00:16:19,500 --> 00:16:22,111
Thanks, I did the art.
430
00:16:22,242 --> 00:16:24,940
That over there is a useful map.
431
00:16:25,071 --> 00:16:27,160
You know where
your clitoris is?
432
00:16:27,290 --> 00:16:29,162
Lots of women your age don't.
433
00:16:29,292 --> 00:16:32,469
I certainly do.
Though my husband didn't.
434
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,863
And I never said anything.
Imagine that.
435
00:16:34,994 --> 00:16:37,083
38 years
and I never said,
436
00:16:37,213 --> 00:16:39,041
"Could you just move
a little to the left
437
00:16:39,172 --> 00:16:40,347
and go twice as fast?"
438
00:16:40,477 --> 00:16:43,002
Course, he never told me
he was sleeping
439
00:16:43,132 --> 00:16:46,135
with other people and had
a massive gambling problem,
440
00:16:46,266 --> 00:16:49,834
which left me in debt,
so I guess we're even.
441
00:16:51,097 --> 00:16:52,446
I like her.
442
00:16:52,576 --> 00:16:54,187
[chuckles]:
I like you, too.
443
00:16:54,317 --> 00:16:55,840
Thanks for helping us.
444
00:16:55,971 --> 00:16:58,321
I'll go find the sketch.
445
00:16:58,452 --> 00:17:00,367
Take your time.
446
00:17:00,497 --> 00:17:03,152
Wow, there's so much
to look at here.
447
00:17:03,283 --> 00:17:06,590
Clearly a life well-lived.
448
00:17:06,721 --> 00:17:10,029
Not me.
I picked the wrong man.
449
00:17:10,159 --> 00:17:12,118
SHERLEEN:
Okay, here's my sketch.
450
00:17:12,248 --> 00:17:14,946
Actually, it's a painting.
451
00:17:15,077 --> 00:17:17,340
[gasps]
Wow.
452
00:17:17,471 --> 00:17:19,647
Lot of orange up top.
453
00:17:19,777 --> 00:17:22,171
- That's her hair color?
- Exactly.
454
00:17:22,302 --> 00:17:24,739
It's very chaotic, isn't it?
455
00:17:24,869 --> 00:17:26,132
Drugs make people chaotic.
456
00:17:26,262 --> 00:17:27,263
MATTY:
They certainly do.
457
00:17:27,394 --> 00:17:28,395
And you all ran
the names
458
00:17:28,525 --> 00:17:30,092
of all the prostitutes arrested
459
00:17:30,223 --> 00:17:31,833
within the year by Sherleen?
460
00:17:31,963 --> 00:17:34,096
Of course. In the whole
tristate area.
461
00:17:34,227 --> 00:17:37,273
MATTY:
Nice. And, uh,
you looked for people
462
00:17:37,404 --> 00:17:38,796
with narcotics charges?
463
00:17:38,927 --> 00:17:41,495
Since our, uh, our
prostitute here had
464
00:17:41,625 --> 00:17:45,151
a "chaotic" drug problem,
per this sketch?
465
00:17:46,195 --> 00:17:48,850
We... did not.
466
00:17:48,980 --> 00:17:51,635
Well, that's probably
too big a pool.
467
00:17:51,766 --> 00:17:53,681
Sherleen,
468
00:17:53,811 --> 00:17:57,163
was there a drug dealer
the other hos favored?
469
00:17:57,293 --> 00:18:00,340
♪ ♪
470
00:18:01,993 --> 00:18:03,256
Hello there.
471
00:18:03,386 --> 00:18:05,214
How'd the mock jury go?
472
00:18:05,345 --> 00:18:06,911
Useful.
473
00:18:07,042 --> 00:18:09,088
But, unfortunately, we got
a pretty mixed reaction
474
00:18:09,218 --> 00:18:12,482
to Raymond's testimony, so
I cannot put him on the stand.
475
00:18:12,613 --> 00:18:15,006
His daughter's gonna have to get
those sympathy votes for us,
476
00:18:15,137 --> 00:18:17,139
which she is not excited about.
477
00:18:17,270 --> 00:18:19,315
Well, you're gonna like this.
478
00:18:19,446 --> 00:18:21,404
We might have a lead
on our missing prostitute.
479
00:18:21,535 --> 00:18:24,973
Sherleen remembered
a guy named Big Vinnie
480
00:18:25,104 --> 00:18:27,715
who used to supply
all the girls,
481
00:18:27,845 --> 00:18:29,238
so we did a little digging,
482
00:18:29,369 --> 00:18:31,545
and his real name is
Vincent De Luca.
483
00:18:31,675 --> 00:18:34,591
In prison at Evandale.
We're gonna go up
484
00:18:34,722 --> 00:18:35,940
in the morning.
485
00:18:36,071 --> 00:18:37,203
[chuckles] Okay.
486
00:18:37,333 --> 00:18:39,857
Some good news... finally.
487
00:18:39,988 --> 00:18:41,555
Uh, the thing is,
488
00:18:41,685 --> 00:18:43,426
I'm the one who figured
that out.
Mm.
489
00:18:43,557 --> 00:18:45,950
And I'm hoping
you're finding me useful
490
00:18:46,081 --> 00:18:49,215
because... I've thought about it
491
00:18:49,345 --> 00:18:51,608
and I really don't think
it's a good idea for me
492
00:18:51,739 --> 00:18:54,263
to get involved in your custody
dispute with Julian.
493
00:18:54,394 --> 00:18:56,396
Over Thanksgiving.
494
00:18:57,701 --> 00:18:59,877
Okay, no problem.
495
00:19:00,008 --> 00:19:01,314
Great.
496
00:19:01,444 --> 00:19:02,663
I only asked because
you wanted to know
497
00:19:02,793 --> 00:19:04,012
how to get on my good side.
498
00:19:07,146 --> 00:19:09,452
MATTY:
- Hey there, Julian.
- Hey.
499
00:19:09,583 --> 00:19:11,585
I'm just checking in on Peabody.
500
00:19:11,715 --> 00:19:13,021
Closed at $23 million,
501
00:19:13,152 --> 00:19:14,501
just like you said.[both chuckle]
502
00:19:14,631 --> 00:19:15,850
I've got the kids tonight,
503
00:19:15,980 --> 00:19:17,199
otherwise we'd be
having a Scotch.
504
00:19:17,330 --> 00:19:18,809
Oh, well, no Scotch for me...
505
00:19:18,940 --> 00:19:20,420
Mm.
...unless I'm
getting laid.
506
00:19:20,550 --> 00:19:22,944
- Mm.
- I guess... I guess
that's not on the table.
507
00:19:23,074 --> 00:19:25,947
Where did you come from,
Madeline Matlock? [laughs]
508
00:19:26,077 --> 00:19:27,862
Naples, Florida,
originally,
509
00:19:27,992 --> 00:19:29,516
then a little detour
through Georgia
510
00:19:29,646 --> 00:19:31,561
before my ex-husband
dragged me up north.
511
00:19:31,692 --> 00:19:33,084
Not that I'm bitter
and broke.
512
00:19:33,215 --> 00:19:34,912
[chuckles]
You specialize
513
00:19:35,043 --> 00:19:36,479
in pharmaceuticals, right?
514
00:19:36,610 --> 00:19:38,742
- Mm-hmm.
- That's where
I need to be.
515
00:19:38,873 --> 00:19:40,483
How old are your kids?
516
00:19:40,614 --> 00:19:42,833
Uh, twins.
They're eight.
517
00:19:42,964 --> 00:19:44,357
- Aw. That's a great age.
- Yeah.
518
00:19:44,487 --> 00:19:47,490
12 is tougher.
I'm raising my grandson...
519
00:19:47,621 --> 00:19:49,231
but don't ask me
for any advice--
520
00:19:49,362 --> 00:19:50,885
he loathes me.
[chuckles]
521
00:19:51,015 --> 00:19:53,670
Have you got any plans
for Thanksgiving weekend?
522
00:19:53,801 --> 00:19:56,238
Because Olympia
mentioned
523
00:19:56,369 --> 00:19:58,980
she'd love to take the twins
on a little getaway.
524
00:19:59,110 --> 00:20:01,287
After you all have dinner
together, of course.
525
00:20:01,417 --> 00:20:04,551
And vacations do
benefit everyone.
526
00:20:05,987 --> 00:20:10,209
Did Olympia send you?
To ask for my weekend?
527
00:20:10,339 --> 00:20:12,211
And so then Julian
explained that he'd be
528
00:20:12,341 --> 00:20:14,517
more than happy to let you
have his weekend
529
00:20:14,648 --> 00:20:16,780
if you leave the
marital apartment
530
00:20:16,911 --> 00:20:19,174
within the month
and cede the deed to him
531
00:20:19,305 --> 00:20:21,742
in pleno. So? Do we have a deal?
532
00:20:21,872 --> 00:20:24,135
You're being ridiculous.
You don't have plans.
533
00:20:24,266 --> 00:20:25,528
Oh, as a matter
of fact, I do.
534
00:20:25,659 --> 00:20:27,138
And I'm the one
being ridiculous?
535
00:20:27,269 --> 00:20:29,315
I'm sorry. [chuckles]
Uh, will you excuse us?
536
00:20:29,445 --> 00:20:31,099
Oh, you bet.
537
00:20:34,276 --> 00:20:36,757
Ridiculous is sending Matlock
to do your dirty work.
538
00:20:36,887 --> 00:20:38,193
I thought she'd have more luck.
539
00:20:38,324 --> 00:20:39,890
You seemed to like her
in the meeting.
540
00:20:40,021 --> 00:20:41,588
You're pissed because
I undercut you in the meeting.
541
00:20:41,718 --> 00:20:43,067
Yeah, because it was personal.
542
00:20:43,198 --> 00:20:44,373
That's not true.
I don't think you're acting
543
00:20:44,504 --> 00:20:45,983
in the firm's best interests.
544
00:20:46,114 --> 00:20:47,594
Well, you could have emailed me
rather than going
545
00:20:47,724 --> 00:20:49,117
after me in public.[knock at door]
Yeah...
546
00:20:49,248 --> 00:20:51,772
Sorry to interrupt,
but we have a problem.
547
00:20:51,902 --> 00:20:53,164
Check the Post.
548
00:20:53,295 --> 00:20:54,905
[sighs]
549
00:20:55,036 --> 00:20:56,733
OLYMPIA:
"On the eve of the Harris
trial, a study reveals
550
00:20:56,864 --> 00:20:58,518
"police corruption
in the late '90s
551
00:20:58,648 --> 00:21:01,303
not as widespread
as initially reported"?
552
00:21:01,434 --> 00:21:02,739
- What?
- SARAH: And it's not
just the Post.
553
00:21:02,870 --> 00:21:04,524
All the other outlets
are picking it up.
554
00:21:04,654 --> 00:21:06,526
[sighs]
Okay, um...
555
00:21:06,656 --> 00:21:08,354
You could go,
we'll talk later.
556
00:21:08,484 --> 00:21:09,790
I'm not going anywhere.
557
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:11,357
Let's strategize.
558
00:21:11,487 --> 00:21:13,620
For the good of the firm?
559
00:21:14,621 --> 00:21:16,231
Policemen's union
must have known
560
00:21:16,362 --> 00:21:17,798
this article
was coming out,
561
00:21:17,928 --> 00:21:19,756
and that's why
- they dropped the number.
- Yeah.
562
00:21:19,887 --> 00:21:21,584
They orchestrated this, clearly.
563
00:21:21,715 --> 00:21:24,152
And held on to the article
for the night before the trial
564
00:21:24,283 --> 00:21:26,894
so they could inflict
the most prejudice on the jury.
565
00:21:27,024 --> 00:21:28,635
My entire case is based
566
00:21:28,765 --> 00:21:30,158
on police corruption.
567
00:21:30,289 --> 00:21:32,334
Damn it! Let's hope
your dealer remembers
568
00:21:32,465 --> 00:21:34,771
a drug-addicted prostitute
from 26 years ago.
569
00:21:34,902 --> 00:21:35,816
You have a plan?
570
00:21:35,946 --> 00:21:36,773
To get him to talk to you?
571
00:21:36,904 --> 00:21:38,949
We sure do.
572
00:21:42,388 --> 00:21:44,303
- Do we have a plan?
- Not yet.
573
00:21:44,433 --> 00:21:47,044
We've got all night to
come up with something.
574
00:21:53,137 --> 00:21:55,139
Now remember, Hoboken, Brenda,
575
00:21:55,270 --> 00:21:56,750
First Baptist
Church, Florida.
576
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,404
Excellent research, Sarah.
577
00:21:58,534 --> 00:22:00,580
Really top-notch.
578
00:22:05,367 --> 00:22:06,977
BIG VINNIE:
Uh, I don't know
579
00:22:07,108 --> 00:22:08,414
- these people.
- MATTY:
Vincent De Luca,
580
00:22:08,544 --> 00:22:10,546
I'm gonna
tell your mother you said that.
581
00:22:10,677 --> 00:22:12,026
You know my mom?
582
00:22:12,156 --> 00:22:14,463
It's me. Matty.
583
00:22:14,594 --> 00:22:16,900
[coughs]
I met your mom
when I moved
584
00:22:17,031 --> 00:22:18,815
up north to Hoboken.
585
00:22:18,946 --> 00:22:20,382
Ran day care.
586
00:22:20,513 --> 00:22:22,863
First Baptist?
With your Aunt Brenda?
587
00:22:22,993 --> 00:22:25,735
[coughing]
588
00:22:25,866 --> 00:22:26,736
I'm sorry.
589
00:22:26,867 --> 00:22:28,347
My emphysema flares up
590
00:22:28,477 --> 00:22:29,913
when I, when I get upset.
591
00:22:30,044 --> 00:22:31,350
It's not your fault.
592
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,047
I guess I just
look different
593
00:22:33,177 --> 00:22:34,614
since I got sick.
594
00:22:34,744 --> 00:22:37,312
Lost a lot of weight.
595
00:22:37,443 --> 00:22:41,403
I just never thought
you wouldn't recognize me.
596
00:22:42,491 --> 00:22:43,927
No, it just took a second.
597
00:22:44,058 --> 00:22:45,451
I-I recognize you.
598
00:22:45,581 --> 00:22:47,670
I was just
- kidding around.
- MATTY: Thank God.
599
00:22:47,801 --> 00:22:50,369
'Cause I suddenly panicked
that I'd look nuts
600
00:22:50,499 --> 00:22:51,979
in front of these lawyers.
601
00:22:52,109 --> 00:22:53,023
They came to
the neighborhood
602
00:22:53,154 --> 00:22:54,416
looking for your mom,
603
00:22:54,547 --> 00:22:56,853
and I told them,
"Cindy moved to Florida.
604
00:22:56,984 --> 00:23:00,379
And how can I help?"
And here we are.
605
00:23:00,509 --> 00:23:04,078
I think they got some big trial
starting today.
606
00:23:04,208 --> 00:23:06,080
First, I'll make
a motion in limine
607
00:23:06,210 --> 00:23:07,603
to try to get
the location moved...
608
00:23:07,734 --> 00:23:09,300
In light of the highly
prejudicial article
609
00:23:09,431 --> 00:23:11,390
- that came out last night.
- Two months ago, you argued
610
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,522
the jury could handle
the publicity.
611
00:23:13,653 --> 00:23:15,916
OLYMPIA:
It won't work, but we need it
on record for appeal.
612
00:23:16,046 --> 00:23:17,526
- Motion denied.
- OLYMPIA:
After the jury is seated,
613
00:23:17,657 --> 00:23:19,528
we'll move into
opening arguments.
614
00:23:19,659 --> 00:23:21,965
That's my first chance
to tell your story.
615
00:23:22,096 --> 00:23:23,576
And it's a horror story.
616
00:23:23,706 --> 00:23:26,448
Raymond Harris
spent 26 years
617
00:23:26,579 --> 00:23:30,147
in a six-by-nine cell,
knowing he was innocent
618
00:23:30,278 --> 00:23:31,453
but also knowing
619
00:23:31,584 --> 00:23:32,846
that no one cared.
620
00:23:32,976 --> 00:23:35,892
But you can show him
that you care.
621
00:23:36,023 --> 00:23:37,764
And that's when I'll try
to get in
622
00:23:37,894 --> 00:23:41,332
an explanation for the reason
you're not taking the stand.
623
00:23:41,463 --> 00:23:44,684
You can show him that you care
about his trauma.
624
00:23:44,814 --> 00:23:47,426
The fact that he
still can't sleep.
625
00:23:47,556 --> 00:23:49,732
He has a crippling fear
of public speaking.
626
00:23:49,863 --> 00:23:52,256
- Objection.
- During my opening statement?
627
00:23:52,387 --> 00:23:53,475
Approach the bench.
628
00:23:55,738 --> 00:23:57,697
She's clearly trying to
imply that her client
629
00:23:57,827 --> 00:23:59,438
isn't testifying because
he's been traumatized,
630
00:23:59,568 --> 00:24:01,048
when we know for a
fact that it's because
631
00:24:01,178 --> 00:24:02,745
she doesn't want his
priors brought up.
632
00:24:02,876 --> 00:24:03,746
OLYMPIA:
Again,
633
00:24:03,877 --> 00:24:04,965
I'll lose,
634
00:24:05,095 --> 00:24:07,402
but we'll get it
in the jury's heads.
635
00:24:07,533 --> 00:24:09,143
OLYMPIA:
Apologies, Your Honor.
636
00:24:09,273 --> 00:24:10,536
I will be more careful.
637
00:24:16,063 --> 00:24:18,457
Look, there's just no way
that I'm gonna remember a...
638
00:24:18,587 --> 00:24:20,763
lady-of-the-night junkie
from 26 years ago.
639
00:24:20,894 --> 00:24:21,938
MATTY:
Oh, I know how tricky
640
00:24:22,069 --> 00:24:23,244
memory can be.
641
00:24:23,374 --> 00:24:24,898
And I do all
those exercises
642
00:24:25,028 --> 00:24:26,552
that the AARP suggests,
643
00:24:26,682 --> 00:24:29,946
but I find what triggers
my memory are specifics.
644
00:24:30,077 --> 00:24:31,644
You got any, Mr. Martinez?
645
00:24:31,774 --> 00:24:33,297
Yeah, of course.
646
00:24:33,428 --> 00:24:35,865
Here's what we can tell you
to help you recall 1996.
647
00:24:35,996 --> 00:24:38,041
It was an election year.
Clinton's second term.
648
00:24:38,172 --> 00:24:39,390
Bob Dole was his opponent.
649
00:24:42,350 --> 00:24:44,831
Dolly the sheep was
the first mammal to be cloned.
650
00:24:44,961 --> 00:24:45,745
That was a big deal.
651
00:24:45,875 --> 00:24:47,268
Macarena.
652
00:24:47,398 --> 00:24:49,357
Everyone was doing
the Macarena.
653
00:24:49,488 --> 00:24:51,272
I wasn't doing the Macarena.
Other people were,
654
00:24:51,402 --> 00:24:52,795
and I remember thinking
it's a good thing I don't carry,
655
00:24:52,926 --> 00:24:54,449
'cause I would've blown
their brains out.
656
00:24:54,580 --> 00:24:56,059
That's great research.
657
00:24:56,190 --> 00:24:59,106
But, Vinnie, I want you
to cast your mind back
658
00:24:59,236 --> 00:25:01,848
to the time when the Macarena
was making you angry.
659
00:25:06,679 --> 00:25:09,159
Okay, look, I do remember
this one redhead junkie
660
00:25:09,290 --> 00:25:10,987
who just up and disappeared
one day.
661
00:25:11,118 --> 00:25:12,554
And that could be her.
662
00:25:12,685 --> 00:25:13,990
- Not Carla.
- BILLY:Got it,
663
00:25:14,121 --> 00:25:15,470
- but do you remember her name?
- No, that's what
664
00:25:15,601 --> 00:25:16,993
I used to called her:
"Not Carla."
665
00:25:17,124 --> 00:25:17,994
See, I used to love
the TV show Cheers.
666
00:25:18,125 --> 00:25:19,300
Do you remember that show?
667
00:25:19,430 --> 00:25:20,431
I do, but I'm guessing
these kids don't.
668
00:25:20,562 --> 00:25:22,216
Yeah, probably not.
669
00:25:22,346 --> 00:25:24,000
Anyway, I'd say
"Cheers, Carla,"
670
00:25:24,131 --> 00:25:25,567
and she'd get all pissed off
and say that's not her name.
671
00:25:25,698 --> 00:25:27,482
Whatever, it was close.
672
00:25:27,613 --> 00:25:29,397
Eventually,
I just called her Not Carla.
673
00:25:29,528 --> 00:25:32,618
But it's like Carla, right?
Carly? Caroline? Carolina?
674
00:25:32,748 --> 00:25:33,836
Carlina, Carlotta, Carlin...
675
00:25:33,967 --> 00:25:35,751
Carlin. Yes.
676
00:25:37,536 --> 00:25:40,408
Okay, driver's license
1993 to 1998,
677
00:25:40,539 --> 00:25:43,846
first name Carlin,
spelled I-N, E-N, O-N, Y-N,
678
00:25:43,977 --> 00:25:45,805
ages 18 to 32.
679
00:25:45,935 --> 00:25:46,936
Might as well cast
a wide net.
680
00:25:47,067 --> 00:25:48,416
Yeah, well, that's very wide.
681
00:25:48,547 --> 00:25:49,548
I mean, that might take
too long...
682
00:25:49,678 --> 00:25:51,201
[phone chimes]
Okay. 214 hits.
683
00:25:51,332 --> 00:25:52,681
Things are
faster now, Matty.
684
00:25:52,812 --> 00:25:54,161
Billy, let's piece
together their lives.
685
00:25:54,291 --> 00:25:56,032
Eliminate anyone who
was out of state in 1996.
686
00:25:56,163 --> 00:25:58,295
We are looking for
redheads, people.
687
00:25:58,426 --> 00:26:00,123
Wow.
688
00:26:01,951 --> 00:26:03,431
Detective Ferguson,
689
00:26:03,562 --> 00:26:05,259
how many times did
Raymond Harris tell you
690
00:26:05,389 --> 00:26:07,740
and your fellow officers
that he was innocent?
691
00:26:07,870 --> 00:26:09,306
I have no idea.
692
00:26:09,437 --> 00:26:10,786
Approximately.
More than 100?
693
00:26:10,917 --> 00:26:13,354
Objection. Asked and answered.
694
00:26:13,484 --> 00:26:14,877
Your Honor, I'm trying to
establish a course of conduct.
695
00:26:16,444 --> 00:26:17,924
I'll allow it.
696
00:26:18,054 --> 00:26:19,621
OLYMPIA:
Thank you.
Is it your best estimate
697
00:26:19,752 --> 00:26:22,406
that he said he was not guilty
more than 100 times?
698
00:26:22,537 --> 00:26:24,147
- Probably.
- Okay.
699
00:26:24,278 --> 00:26:27,803
So, more than 100 times
Mr. Harris says he's not guilty,
700
00:26:27,934 --> 00:26:29,457
and after you question him
for 11 hours,
701
00:26:29,588 --> 00:26:30,893
he says he's guilty.
702
00:26:31,024 --> 00:26:32,634
How long after
Raymond confessed
703
00:26:32,765 --> 00:26:33,896
did he retract that confession?
704
00:26:34,027 --> 00:26:35,768
About ten minutes later.
705
00:26:35,898 --> 00:26:37,813
Eight.
What did he do in between?
706
00:26:37,944 --> 00:26:38,945
I can't remember.
707
00:26:39,075 --> 00:26:40,294
He went to the bathroom.
708
00:26:40,424 --> 00:26:42,339
Detective Ferguson,
after Raymond
709
00:26:42,470 --> 00:26:44,994
retracted his confession,
did you investigate further?
710
00:26:45,125 --> 00:26:47,214
- No.
- Was there anything
to link Mr. Harris
711
00:26:47,344 --> 00:26:48,868
to the crime scene
other than the fact
712
00:26:48,998 --> 00:26:50,783
that he was seen in the area
by one eyewitness
713
00:26:50,913 --> 00:26:52,785
- who was admittedly intoxicated?
- Yeah.
714
00:26:52,915 --> 00:26:54,874
He matched the description
we put out.
715
00:26:55,004 --> 00:26:57,441
Right. I have that description.
716
00:26:57,572 --> 00:27:00,836
Admitting this in evidence
as plaintiff exhibit 4B.
717
00:27:00,967 --> 00:27:02,490
Can you read it
aloud, please?
718
00:27:02,621 --> 00:27:04,666
Black male, no facial hair.
719
00:27:04,797 --> 00:27:06,712
Five-foot-ten to six-foot.
720
00:27:06,842 --> 00:27:08,539
Well...
721
00:27:08,670 --> 00:27:10,193
I can see why
you thought
722
00:27:10,324 --> 00:27:11,630
it was Raymond Harris.
723
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:13,240
No more questions, Your Honor.
724
00:27:13,370 --> 00:27:15,764
Thank you again
for your service.
725
00:27:15,895 --> 00:27:18,637
Let's start at that last
point, Detective Ferguson.
726
00:27:18,767 --> 00:27:20,334
Why didn't you
investigate further
727
00:27:20,464 --> 00:27:22,815
after Mr. Harris
retracted his confession?
728
00:27:22,945 --> 00:27:25,426
Because people take back
confessions all the time.
729
00:27:25,556 --> 00:27:27,646
The reason we didn't keep
looking is simple:
730
00:27:27,776 --> 00:27:31,345
the most believable explanation
for what happened
731
00:27:31,475 --> 00:27:33,129
is usually what happened.
732
00:27:33,260 --> 00:27:34,435
So, in your opinion
this wasn't a case
733
00:27:34,565 --> 00:27:36,480
of widespread
police corruption?
734
00:27:36,611 --> 00:27:38,831
Come on.
You see the papers today?
735
00:27:38,961 --> 00:27:41,703
There was no
widespread corruption.
736
00:27:43,009 --> 00:27:45,185
[whispers]:
They found the prostitute.
737
00:27:48,579 --> 00:27:51,670
CARLIN:
Look, I haven't thought about
that night for a long time.
738
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,324
I knew I was going
to be murdered,
739
00:27:54,455 --> 00:27:56,936
and I knew
no one would care.
740
00:27:57,980 --> 00:27:59,678
And so I just fought.
741
00:27:59,808 --> 00:28:03,812
And because of God or whatever
higher power you believe in,
742
00:28:03,943 --> 00:28:05,248
I got away.
743
00:28:05,379 --> 00:28:07,468
And I shouldn't have.
744
00:28:07,598 --> 00:28:10,253
And so
I changed my life.
745
00:28:10,384 --> 00:28:12,342
I got sober.
746
00:28:12,473 --> 00:28:15,345
Which was the hardest
thing I ever did.
747
00:28:15,476 --> 00:28:17,957
But I did it.
748
00:28:18,087 --> 00:28:20,350
And I went
to college and...
749
00:28:20,481 --> 00:28:23,484
I have a life
that I never imagined.
750
00:28:24,485 --> 00:28:27,488
But, uh, my family
doesn't know about my past.
751
00:28:27,618 --> 00:28:29,795
Not my husband, not my kids.
752
00:28:29,925 --> 00:28:31,884
Well, you could testify
in closed court.
753
00:28:32,014 --> 00:28:33,799
We just need to establish
that you reported
754
00:28:33,929 --> 00:28:36,105
the attack while Raymond
was in jail
755
00:28:36,236 --> 00:28:38,151
to prove there was a cover-up.
756
00:28:38,281 --> 00:28:39,718
No, it will get out.
757
00:28:39,848 --> 00:28:41,763
I have teenagers.
758
00:28:41,894 --> 00:28:44,418
I'm sorry, I-I, I can't.
759
00:28:44,548 --> 00:28:45,941
We can subpoena you.
760
00:28:46,072 --> 00:28:47,638
No. No, you don't understand,
761
00:28:47,769 --> 00:28:48,988
that will destroy
my family.
762
00:28:49,118 --> 00:28:50,554
Please.
763
00:28:50,685 --> 00:28:52,861
Please, you don't know
what I've been through.
764
00:28:56,212 --> 00:28:58,475
We can't actually subpoena you.
765
00:28:58,606 --> 00:28:59,694
[exhales]
To get you added
766
00:28:59,825 --> 00:29:01,304
to the witness list
this late,
767
00:29:01,435 --> 00:29:03,132
we'd have to
submit an affidavit
768
00:29:03,263 --> 00:29:05,134
with your cooperation.
769
00:29:05,265 --> 00:29:07,876
Well, I won't give it.
770
00:29:09,138 --> 00:29:10,226
MATTY:
I'm sorry.
771
00:29:10,357 --> 00:29:11,488
I couldn't lie to her.
772
00:29:11,619 --> 00:29:12,925
Well, you also
didn't have to give her
773
00:29:13,055 --> 00:29:14,578
the road map on how
to get out of testifying.
774
00:29:14,709 --> 00:29:16,929
You're right.
And i-it's been a while,
775
00:29:17,059 --> 00:29:18,495
so maybe... Maybe what?
776
00:29:18,626 --> 00:29:20,019
Maybe you shouldn't
have come back to work?
777
00:29:20,149 --> 00:29:21,760
I agree.
778
00:29:21,890 --> 00:29:23,457
Which is why I didn't
want you hired from the moment
779
00:29:23,587 --> 00:29:26,677
you brought up discriminatory
practices and ageism,
780
00:29:26,808 --> 00:29:28,897
which is an offensive
manipulation of a law
781
00:29:29,028 --> 00:29:31,900
that was established primarily
to keep workers from getting
782
00:29:32,031 --> 00:29:34,947
pushed out prematurely,
whereas you getting blocked
783
00:29:35,077 --> 00:29:37,601
was likely because
it has been 30 years
784
00:29:37,732 --> 00:29:39,255
since you've practiced law.
785
00:29:39,386 --> 00:29:42,258
Which, best-case scenario,
786
00:29:42,389 --> 00:29:45,958
you just proved to be
a recipe for disaster.
787
00:29:46,088 --> 00:29:48,177
Worst-case scenario?
788
00:29:48,308 --> 00:29:50,136
You gave that woman
a way out
789
00:29:50,266 --> 00:29:52,312
because you felt sorry
for her.
790
00:29:52,442 --> 00:29:53,487
Because you saw her
791
00:29:53,617 --> 00:29:56,098
living in suburbia
792
00:29:56,229 --> 00:29:58,100
and she reminded you
of yourself.
793
00:29:58,231 --> 00:30:00,363
But you know what?
Those people who remind you
794
00:30:00,494 --> 00:30:02,365
of yourself have
generations of advantage
795
00:30:02,496 --> 00:30:04,628
over the people
who remind me of myself.
796
00:30:04,759 --> 00:30:06,587
Do you know who I identify with?
797
00:30:06,717 --> 00:30:08,589
Raymond and his family.
798
00:30:08,719 --> 00:30:11,200
Who you just screwed over.
799
00:30:19,513 --> 00:30:21,123
[voice breaking]:
Hey, Alfie, it's Grammy.
800
00:30:21,254 --> 00:30:25,519
Oh, I'm so sorry I won't be home
for dinner again.
801
00:30:25,649 --> 00:30:26,999
Oh...
802
00:30:27,129 --> 00:30:28,565
I sound weird?
803
00:30:28,696 --> 00:30:30,045
[chuckles]:
No, I'm fine.
804
00:30:30,176 --> 00:30:31,873
Just busy.
805
00:30:33,875 --> 00:30:37,052
I'm getting called in,
so I'll talk to you later.
806
00:30:39,707 --> 00:30:41,317
BILLY:
Something salty?
807
00:30:42,362 --> 00:30:43,363
I'm not one for pep talks,
808
00:30:43,493 --> 00:30:46,757
but I am here to support
809
00:30:46,888 --> 00:30:49,064
whatever Billy
is about to say to you.
810
00:30:49,195 --> 00:30:50,979
There's no need
to say it.
811
00:30:51,110 --> 00:30:54,548
I was wrong, I let
my emotions get in the way.
812
00:30:54,678 --> 00:30:57,203
Something I'd never do
when I was younger.
813
00:30:57,333 --> 00:30:59,727
Back then
I kept things separate.
814
00:31:00,771 --> 00:31:02,817
I just can't...
815
00:31:02,948 --> 00:31:05,298
I can't let
any more people down.
816
00:31:05,428 --> 00:31:07,778
Not at this moment in my life,
I just...
817
00:31:07,909 --> 00:31:09,432
Mm-mm.
818
00:31:09,563 --> 00:31:10,999
Can't do it.
819
00:31:11,130 --> 00:31:13,523
Okay. Um...
820
00:31:13,654 --> 00:31:15,134
Time to get
over yourself.
821
00:31:15,264 --> 00:31:17,919
This is
completely normal.
822
00:31:18,050 --> 00:31:20,182
You know, we're on the
crying patio, remember?
823
00:31:20,313 --> 00:31:21,967
But come on.
824
00:31:22,097 --> 00:31:23,185
I mean, we've accomplished
more with you
825
00:31:23,316 --> 00:31:24,491
than we have all year.
826
00:31:24,621 --> 00:31:26,493
I mean, that's
not entirely true.
827
00:31:26,623 --> 00:31:29,670
What? Hyperbole helps no one.
828
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:31,759
But you've obviously
been useful.
829
00:31:31,890 --> 00:31:33,282
So...
830
00:31:33,413 --> 00:31:37,025
stop feeling bad for yourself
and pull up whatever
831
00:31:37,156 --> 00:31:39,027
granny panties you wear
and fix it.
832
00:31:39,158 --> 00:31:40,333
[laughs softly]
833
00:31:40,463 --> 00:31:41,725
Okay?
834
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,773
OLYMPIA:
Jordan, after your father
835
00:31:45,904 --> 00:31:50,604
was wrongfully imprisoned,
how did your life change?
836
00:31:50,734 --> 00:31:53,737
Well, we lost our housing.
I had to switch schools.
837
00:31:53,868 --> 00:31:55,652
And everybody knew
that my father
838
00:31:55,783 --> 00:31:57,872
was convicted of
rape and murder,
839
00:31:58,003 --> 00:32:00,266
so you know who wanted
to hang around me?
840
00:32:00,396 --> 00:32:02,964
Hmm?
People who thought
that was cool.
841
00:32:03,095 --> 00:32:04,487
And how did that affect you?
842
00:32:04,618 --> 00:32:05,532
I mean, how didn't it affect me?
843
00:32:05,662 --> 00:32:07,795
Can you be more specific?
844
00:32:13,801 --> 00:32:15,672
This is your chance, Jordan.
845
00:32:20,416 --> 00:32:23,680
Well, I'm 37 years old now
and...
846
00:32:23,811 --> 00:32:25,421
I've never had a relationship.
847
00:32:25,552 --> 00:32:28,555
Why?
Because
848
00:32:28,685 --> 00:32:32,167
if I thought
my father was capable
849
00:32:32,298 --> 00:32:34,735
of this terrible thing,
then how could I trust
850
00:32:34,865 --> 00:32:36,650
anyone?
851
00:32:36,780 --> 00:32:39,305
But he wasn't capable of it.
852
00:32:39,435 --> 00:32:41,263
- It's okay.
- No.
853
00:32:42,308 --> 00:32:43,309
It's not okay.
854
00:32:44,527 --> 00:32:47,400
Because the worst part is,
855
00:32:47,530 --> 00:32:50,751
the worst part is
that me and my dad,
856
00:32:50,881 --> 00:32:53,014
we used to be close, and I...
857
00:32:54,450 --> 00:32:57,453
I don't know
how to get that back.
858
00:32:57,584 --> 00:33:00,717
I can't get
that back.
859
00:33:05,026 --> 00:33:07,594
No further questions,
Your Honor.
860
00:33:07,724 --> 00:33:08,812
[knock at door]
861
00:33:08,943 --> 00:33:10,727
MATTY:
Just five minutes.
862
00:33:10,858 --> 00:33:12,773
Please.
863
00:33:12,903 --> 00:33:15,167
I helped you yesterday.
864
00:33:15,297 --> 00:33:16,429
[sighs]
865
00:33:16,559 --> 00:33:18,779
Look, I understand
what's at stake.
866
00:33:18,909 --> 00:33:20,911
And I understand
why you said no.
867
00:33:21,042 --> 00:33:22,609
More than you know.
868
00:33:24,654 --> 00:33:26,221
I had a daughter.
869
00:33:27,266 --> 00:33:30,704
And she died after
a long battle with drugs.
870
00:33:31,748 --> 00:33:35,709
And I carry the weight
of that loss every day.
871
00:33:35,839 --> 00:33:38,277
And usually
I can handle it, right?
872
00:33:38,407 --> 00:33:39,669
But...
873
00:33:40,844 --> 00:33:43,543
...once in a while,
and it's always unexpected...

...it becomes the only thing
in the room.
875
00:33:49,984 --> 00:33:52,378
And yesterday
that's what happened.
876
00:33:52,508 --> 00:33:53,988
When you were
talking about
877
00:33:54,119 --> 00:33:56,164
how hard you worked
to get clean
878
00:33:56,295 --> 00:33:58,993
and how far you'd come...
879
00:34:01,343 --> 00:34:03,650
...I thought about what
I'd do for my daughter.
880
00:34:06,914 --> 00:34:09,830
And the answer is anything.
881
00:34:11,136 --> 00:34:12,789
Everything.
882
00:34:13,834 --> 00:34:16,837
But this is about
Raymond Harris and his family.
883
00:34:17,968 --> 00:34:19,622
And they've been destroyed.
884
00:34:21,189 --> 00:34:23,583

But I don't want
to blow up my life.
885
00:34:25,324 --> 00:34:27,761
Plus there's no guarantee
they'll even believe me.
886
00:34:27,891 --> 00:34:30,111
I mean, people don't care
about prostitutes.
887

Even back then I knew
it would go nowhere.

892

...I will not betray you.
893

But I need to know
what you know.
894
00:34:51,437 --> 00:34:52,873
The owner of this
Greek restaurant
895
00:34:53,003 --> 00:34:54,614
saw me fight the guy off.
896
00:34:57,269 --> 00:35:00,010
And he walked me
to the police station.
897
00:35:01,795 --> 00:35:03,579
Hi there.
898
00:35:03,710 --> 00:35:06,887
I'm wondering if Papa Cristo
still owns this establishment?
899
00:35:09,063 --> 00:35:12,284
First, I want to say
I appreciate
900
00:35:12,414 --> 00:35:15,156
how hard it must have been
having a father in jail.
901
00:35:15,287 --> 00:35:18,768
Though you had experienced
his incarceration before,
902
00:35:18,899 --> 00:35:20,509
am I right?
Earlier in life?
903
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,598
Objection!
Can we approach?
904
00:35:25,688 --> 00:35:27,560
That was clearly
prejudicial.
905
00:35:27,690 --> 00:35:29,605
As prejudicial
as suggesting your client
906
00:35:29,736 --> 00:35:31,868
isn't testifying because he's
- afraid of public speaking?
- Worse.
907
00:35:31,999 --> 00:35:33,522
He just made sure
that the jury sees
908
00:35:33,653 --> 00:35:35,872
my client as a criminal
instead of a victim.
909
00:35:36,003 --> 00:35:37,657
Enough!
910
00:35:37,787 --> 00:35:39,485
Objection sustained,
and the next time this happens,
911
00:35:39,615 --> 00:35:41,095
you're both looking
at a mistrial.
912
00:35:52,846 --> 00:35:54,587
And so I went
to Papa Cristo's restaurant,
913
00:35:54,717 --> 00:35:56,415
and believe it or not,
he's still there,
914
00:35:56,545 --> 00:35:58,504
still sharp as a tack,
and he's older than me.

that happened 26 years ago?
927

929
00:36:23,311 --> 00:36:25,835
if the friend taped the call,
that'd be okay?
930
00:36:25,966 --> 00:36:27,446

you wouldn't argue
931

the tape this late?
932
00:36:29,448 --> 00:36:31,319

936

Well, here's the thing--

Papa Cristo didn't
call a friend.
938
00:36:44,419 --> 00:36:45,986
He called 911.
939
00:36:46,116 --> 00:36:48,510

at the police station,

on the state's server,
942
00:36:54,081 --> 00:36:56,170
so...
943
00:36:56,301 --> 00:36:58,085
we'll go ahead
and admit that into evidence?

00:41:56,644 --> 00:41:58,428
Now, I was fair
if extremely partial.
1049
00:41:58,559 --> 00:42:01,083
Yes, I'm officially
a new employee
1050
00:42:01,214 --> 00:42:02,432
of Jacobson Moore.
1051
00:42:02,563 --> 00:42:04,739
So, when do you get
to work on drug cases?
1052
00:42:04,870 --> 00:42:07,699
You specialize
in pharmaceuticals, right?
1053
00:42:07,829 --> 00:42:09,788
That's where I need to be.
1054
00:42:09,918 --> 00:42:13,313
Well, I have to build up
a little trust first.
1055
00:42:13,443 --> 00:42:15,184
Listen, I'm gonna
make a few notes,
1056
00:42:15,315 --> 00:42:17,535
so why don't you go get washed
up for dinner, okay, Alfie?
1057
00:42:23,410 --> 00:42:25,455
[door closes]
1058
00:42:31,723 --> 00:42:34,029
You look tired, darling.
1059
00:42:35,291 --> 00:42:37,555
Are you sure
you can do this?
1060
00:42:37,685 --> 00:42:40,514
I have to, Edwin.
1061
00:42:40,645 --> 00:42:42,908
One of those three
hid documents
1062
00:42:43,038 --> 00:42:45,171
that could have taken
opioids off the market
1063
00:42:45,301 --> 00:42:46,912
ten years earlier.
1064
00:42:48,304 --> 00:42:50,742
Think of how many lives
that could have saved.
1065
00:42:53,701 --> 00:42:55,616
Including our daughter's.
1066
00:42:55,747 --> 00:42:58,401
I thought about what I'd do
for my daughter.
1067
00:42:58,532 --> 00:43:02,362
And the answer is anything.
1068
00:43:02,492 --> 00:43:04,016
Everything.
1069
00:43:05,844 --> 00:43:08,716
So I'm gonna figure out
who knew what, when.
1070
00:43:10,196 --> 00:43:12,285
And then?
1071
00:43:13,373 --> 00:43:15,941
I'm gonna put them in jail.
