Ms. A!
Good morning!
- Good morning. - It's Judge Marina today.
So, everyone should be beautiful.
Attorney Miranda.
Attorney Lucero.
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Ms. A! We are going to the fourth floor, Ms. A!
Excuse me!
Miss!
Seven is widely regarded as a lucky number.
Seven seas upon which we depend on
for survival.
Seven days of the week,
we go on about our lives.
But, seven demons possessed Mary Magdalene.
And like the famous woman of the Bible,
the defendant does not consider the number seven lucky.
For seven years, Mrs. Fariñas endured abuse,
hurt, and beatings by her husband.
We have presented police reports
and testimonies from the town's help desk
wherein the defendant had been rescued several times
from her husband.
And on the night of January 13th 2022,
her husband was about to attack her
with a butcher's knife.
And so she hit him with a hammer on the head.
Your Honor,
this woman is not a criminal.
She protected herself from the man
who was meant to protect her.
And that man was her husband.
Your Honor, she acted in self-defense
as proven by the evidence we presented.
With this, Your Honor,
we would like to ask you
to find Mrs. Fariñas not guilty of murder.
Oh, I'll get your laundry.
- You have nothing to wear for tomorrow. - Oh, okay.
- Oh, my God. - Thank you.
No problem.
Where are my keys?
Oh, no.
Another victory?
You’ve been winning your cases, Attorney Miranda.
Alexis?
I didn’t know you’ve been following my cases.
I'm proud of you.
I'm proud of me, too.
Do you realize the judge would admonish you
with what you're wearing?
It's so awful!
I'm sorry, sir. Sorry.
Because I stayed overnight at the office
to finish everything you needed for the hearing earlier.
I'm sorry.
You are working for Atticus.
You are representing me.
Yes, sir.
That is why we give you a clothing budget.
Use it.
Noted, sir. I'm sorry, sir.
I'm so sorry.
Oops.
Attorney Lucero.
I'm sorry, sir.
- It’s fine. - Let me help you.
You're not supposed to do this.
There are interns and admin staff for this.
No, it’s fine. I’ll do it. It’s not right, sir.
Where’s your room? I'll bring your things there.
No need. I can carry that.
Nope.
Which room is it?
Come on. Hop on.
Okay, let’s go.
Am I corny?
Actually, no.
You find me funny?
Yes, I do.
Good morning, Ms. A!
- Good morning. - Here's your coffee.
Thank you.
Here's your tarot card of the day.
Ace of Pentacles.
Ace of Pentacles. I know this. It's about money, isn't it?
- Correct. - I like that.
- Ms. A.? - I want money.
Good morning.
- I have news for you. - Read one for me, too.
- Okay. - Sure.
- Let's do it. - Here, hear.
Okay.
- Good news. - Good news. I like that.
We got an inquiry!
Zachary Chua’s manager called to set up an appointment.
Why are you all excited? Who is he?
He’s gorgeous, Ms. A.
That’s him. That's Zach.
Zachary is being sued by Madison Valencia.
I don’t understand.
Who is Madison Valencia? Zachary Chua?
- Are these my relatives that I need-- - Ms. A, let me update you.
- Ms. A, they are celebrities. - Correct.
- Influencers. - I see.
Okay.
- I'll do the research. - Of course.
What case?
Rape.
He raped me.
He violated me.
Zachary Chua sexually assaulted me.
And I will make sure he pays for it.
EXIS HERE'S YOUR FAVORITE!
He keeps calling me Exis.
Jerk.
- For Attorney Miranda, please. - Oh.
- Here, ma'am. - Thank you.
Hi, Attorney!
Sugar rush.
Looks like we won't be able to have lunch later.
Thank you.
Is that the embezzlement case of Fernando Ladron?
Yes, this is the record of bank transfers of the company's fund
to the personal account of Mr. Ladron.
Good job.
But you might discover something else.
Sometimes the most obvious is the one we don't see. Right?
You can do it.
You’re good.
Hi!
Happy birthday.
That’s next week.
For you.
- What is this? - I noticed lately that
you're stressed out.
I hope this makes you happy.
Is that so?
This is an early gift.
Wait.
No way.
Wait, you remembered?
You thought I wasn't listening when you told me that
your Grade 1 classmate tore up your stationery.
Wow.
I didn't know that you were paying attention.
Then my mom didn't buy me a new one.
Thank you.
All right, let's go home.
Okay.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
That's enough.
Wait, I'm almost done.
They might ask for this tomorrow.
Who will ask for it?
Guevarra?
- I'll take care of it. - Yes.
I’ll talk to him.
Wait a minute.
Wait. How will you talk to him?
I heard he won’t be at the office tomorrow.
He’s on leave. He’s going to Europe.
So classy.
He travels to Europe like it's near Quiapo.
I envy him.
Do you want to go to Europe? We will go there.
To Rome? Paris? Venice?
No.
They say
it’s beautiful in Italy.
Florence?
I heard Florence is more romantic than Paris.
Okay.
Let's go to Florence.
Stand up.
- Good night. - Take care.
- All right, thank you. - Bye, Attorney.
Bye, thank you.
I got it!
Look.
Look at the huge amount in the money transfer.
Every time. And it was not even discreet
in all the transactions.
It all happened in 20 days.
Do you get it?
What are you saying?
Well, what I'm saying is
they want to make it obvious
that he's stealing money from the company.
So this is a setup?
Well, the question is who’s doing it?
And what’s the motive?
Adam. Alexis.
The son of Fernando Ladron called.
Do you think it's time we schedule
a briefing with the new witness?
Uh...
Attorney, I think we need a little bit more time
to go through the documents
- presented-- - Dad!
- Miss Kate, let me help you with that. - Hey.
- There you are. - Hello, Kate.
What are you doing here?
Thank you so much, ma’am.
- You're welcome. - What's that?
Nice.
Oh!
You know I'm not allowed to have this.
I knew you'd be working late, so I brought this.
Wait.
You need something, right?
- Dad, how could you say that? - What do you want?
No, Dad.
You know I always want to see you.
- But there is this trip. - I knew it.
Try one.
Thank you.
He doesn't like sweets.
Try one, it's really good.
So, about that trip, Dad.
I knew it.
Dad, please!
- No. - I really wanted to go.
Kate, come on.
They’re here!
- This way, please. - Is the A/C working?
So, this is Attorney Alexis Miranda.
- And this is Sir Joni. - Hi, Attorney.
- The manager of the Zachary Chua. - Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
Okay.
You want coffee? Juice?
Beer!
Do you have beer?
- Just beer. - Beer?
Water. With lemon.
- Oh, we have that. - Thank you.
- Excuse me. - Don't you have beer?
Traffic was so bad.
It's okay. We can get started.
Zachary.
Mr. Chua,
could you tell me exactly what happened
on the night of March 30th 2024?
It was a Saturday night.
Which means date night.
Madison demands that every Saturday
- we must always be together. - I'm here.
I'm bored.
I've been waiting here since 11 a.m.
I've been wanting to go swimming.
You’re so late.
Are you bored, Mads?
This is it. We’ll do something.
What do you do on your date night?
Well, we can't be seen in public.
So that night,
we went out of town in a rented villa.
Don't you miss me?
You know what? I'm tired of being your secret.
Mads.
Just give me time.
We will become official.
But let's not rush it.
How about a soft launch first?
So, when?
Soon.
Come on.
- Come on, Mads? - Okay, fine.
Hey wait!
And that's it.
We had sex.
Okay. So,
was it consensual?
Of course.
Attorney,
we’ve been doing it for a long time.
Why is she accusing you of rape?
Because she was angry with me that night.
She took my phone while I was sleeping.
And then she discovered something.
Wake up, jerk!
Who’s this Christine?
My follower. What are you talking about?
I can’t believe this.
Is this the reason why you don’t want us to be official?
So you can still flirt with anybody?
Go back to sleep. Just shut up.
- I want to sleep. - Let’s end this now!
Get out!
- What the hell? - Get out!
She’s angry. That’s why she wants to ruin my career.
So, was that the last time you saw her?
Yes.
What's this, Joni?
Attorney, can you help us?
I'm not guilty.
I didn’t rape her.
Why Miranda and Associates?
You can go to bigger law firms.
Why me?
It was my idea.
We can pay no matter how much.
And you're right.
We can get the biggest law firm
to represent us. But...
But what?
But it’s better if a woman defends Zach.
Someone who comes from a
humble law firm.
Small-time, you mean?
Attorney,
you're one of the best female lawyers in the city.
So, this is all for optics?
Attorney, they say that guilty people
hire the most expensive lawyers
from the biggest law firms.
But if you represent us,
people's perception will be different.
- Two million pesos. - Whoa!
Yes, two million pesos acceptance fee.
Plus 20% down payment, non-refundable,
and we also need a monthly retainer's fee of 50,000 pesos.
That does not include the 10,000 pesos appearance fee
whenever she goes to the court,
whether there is a hearing or not.
Okay, my team will get back to you as soon as possible.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
- Attorney, thank you for your time. - Yes.
- Joni, - Yes.
if I'm going to accept this case,
we have to make sure that Zachary cooperates.
He has to obey everything I say.
- Yes, Attorney. - Hold on!
We are here
to hire you.
- You're a small-time lawyer. - Zachary!
Why does it seem that we owe you a debt of gratitude?
I won’t be following your orders.
Zachary, stop!
Mr. Chua, look at you.
I don't think you understand
or you know the gravity of your situation.
You are being accused of rape.
Don't you know how serious that is?
Don't act like I need you.
You’re the one who needs me.
Do you know why I charge that much?
Mr. Chua, I have never lost a case.
Why would I risk my name to defend you?
- Attorney. Attorney, it's okay. - Doesn't it seem like
you need me more than I need you?
My card.
Attorney, it’s fine.
Just make sure that I win this case.
Make sure that you are worth every peso that I'm paying you.
Zach, let's go!
Attorney, we'll see you soon.
Zach, let's go.
Thank you so much for your time.
- Joni, what's that? - Mr. Chua, Sir Joni.
I thought she was going to be cheap.
Zach!
Why don't we just hire a famous lawyer
from a bigger law firm?
Can you just trust me, please?
Let's not talk here.
- Thank you. - Thank you so much.
It’s my money you’re spending.
Zachary!
Find someone better.
We can't mess this up.
Zachary, can you just trust me?
This is embarrassing.
Take care.
Okay, let's get started.
Find me anything about Madison and Zachary.
Previous relationships, dating history,
everything. Okay?
Marisue, that's easy for you
because you’re his follower, right?
Not anymore. He's a turn off.
Ms. A., he’s so entitled.
And arrogant.
There are a lot of people like him.
They come from rich families
who never struggled their entire lives.
And they think that they can just do anything
and then get away with it.
Ms. A., there's a man looking for you.
Super handsome with dimples.
Ms. A., he is absolutely gorgeous!
Attorney Caliente.
Matthew Caliente.
Okay, tell him he has five minutes to talk to me.
Just five minutes?
Wait.
Ex!
Exis!
How are you?
I'm good.
You?
I'm doing good, too.
Thank you for giving me a few minutes
of your precious time, Attorney Miranda.
I'm sure your time is also limited.
I know how stressful it is to work for Atticus.
So,
how’s life as Adam’s slave?
So, I'm an enemy now?
I know this is your drink.
Why are you here, Math?
I mean, Attorney Caliente.
I'm here because there is talk
that you are going to represent Zachary Chua.
And?
Atticus will be representing Madison Valencia.
Oh.
So, this is the Trojan horse.
Isn't there something more expensive than this?
- Sure, give it back. - But I'll take it.
Ex,
I’m telling you so you won't be surprised.
You'll be seeing more of me
and Attorney Lucero.
Is that a threat?
I just want to make sure that there is no conflict of interest.
Don't worry, Math.
There's no conflict.
And I can assure you,
there is no interest.
- Your time is-- - Is up?
I know.
I'll see you soon.
Congratulations for winning the case.
Thank you.
- Congratulations. - Congrats.
Congrats.
To more victories!
This is an unbeatable team!
Thank you, sir.
Kudos to Attorney Miranda, sir.
Her research was thorough.
Yes, but you were the team leader.
So, because of that,
the Board of Trustees
has decided to promote you as a junior partner.
- Wow! - Congratulations, Attorney Lucero!
Thank you!
Adam.
- Yes. - Congratulations!
Great job!
There is somebody waiting for you in the office.
Thank you.
Congrats!
I have another announcement to make.
We've been hiding this
- from you for a long time. - Congrats.
Because I don't want any of you to think
that this announcement has anything to do
with Attorney Lucero's promotion.
After all, Attorney Lucero deserves his promotion, correct?
But Attorney Lucero
will soon be a full partner of this firm
because he is going to be a member of our family.
- Wow! - Congratulations!
Adam and Kate are getting married!
Wow!
Congratulations!
Fuck him!
Can you believe?
We've been going out for months.
I can't remember.
We've been together for a few months.
And then I find out that he’s getting married!
I'm getting married.
And not just with anybody.
What the fuck!
He's marrying our boss's daughter.
It hurts so much. Fuck this!
How's my ego, bro?
I can't believe you're getting married to that rich bitch!
What the fuck?!
Jerk! Stupid!
Fuck him! What a jerk!
Yes, he's a jerk.
Cheers!
For stupid jerks.
Oh, shit!
Excuse me.
I don't talk to strangers.
Okay. Be careful.
Whoa, whoa!
- Uh... - Be careful, okay.
Excuse me.
I can handle myself.
See, I can do it.
To all the men who do not know how to love,
fuck you!
Fuck all of you!
- Fuck this! - Hey.
- Fuck! - Careful.
- Take a seat. - I'm fine.
Okay?
Are you all right?
I still want to drink.
Seems like you had enough.
- No, no. - Give it to me.
Give it to me!
Son of a bitch! Give me that!
- I want to drink some more! - Hey, hey!
That's enough! You already drank enough!
- This is mine now. - Relax.
Oh, okay.
- That's enough. - Buy more of this. Quick.
That's enough.
Hey, hey!
Okay, that's enough.
- You're drunk enough already, okay? - Okay.
- Okay? - Okay.
Okay.
So, you're getting married.
Let's not talk here.
Why not?
You don't want your girlfriend to know?
I'm sorry. I mean, your fiancée.
How was it?
You dated both of us at the same time?
How did that happen, huh?
Since when?
- We don't have a relationship. - Wait.
What?
So what was that?
We were just colleagues who had sex?
Huh?
Okay.
I get it now.
You just fucked me.
You know what we are and what we are not.
I have to go.
Okay. Yeah, I'll see you.
Yes, I'll be there right away.
Sir.
We have a new intern who’s coming in today.
He'll be here for about eight weeks.
I want you to be his mentor.
Uh, by mentor, you mean...
Teach him everything that he needs to learn.
It's up to you, okay?
Okay, sir.
Attorney, they are waiting for you at the conference now.
- Tell them I'll follow. - And sir, the intern is here now.
Oh, Matthew. Please, send him in.
You will like Matthew.
Yeah, he's a nice man.
Matthew.
- Hello, sir. - Welcome to Atticus.
How are you, Attorney Guevarra?
This is Attorney Alexis Miranda.
She will be your mentor.
- Hi. - Alexis, this is Matthew.
And you’ll handle him, okay?
Yes, sir.
So, your name is Alexis.
Uh, call me Attorney Miranda.
We’re not close.
Don't you remember me?
I'm sorry.
Have we met?
So, where is the jerk who two-timed you
with the boss's daughter?
Oh, my God! Was it you?
You are a law student?
Miss Valencia,
do you personally know Mr. Zachary?
The accused in this case?
Yes.
Please tell us about your relationship with Zachary.
We’re dating.
Dating?
But he's not your boyfriend?
We're not official.
There's no label.
Can you tell us what happened on the night of March 30th 2024?
He
raped me!
Can you tell us what happened?
We rented a villa out of town.
Do it.
You said you and Zachary are dating.
Can you make it clear what that means?
We hang out. We go on dinner dates.
Clubbing sometimes.
Most of the time, we go out of town.
And when you go out of town,
what do you usually do?
What people usually do on a date.
- Meaning? - Kissing. MOMOL...
Sex.
Miss Valencia, what is the meaning of MOMOL?
Your Honor, MOMOL means
Make Out, just Making Out.
So, you guys have sex often?
Yes.
- Mads! What the hell, Madison! - What?
What’s this? Just continue.
Who’s that?
Give me the phone.
What the hell.
What made you say that he raped you
on March 30th 2024?
Because he forced me.
I said I didn't want to, but he did it anyway.
Tell me who's calling.
- Give it to me. - I told you, stop it.
Give it to me.
Give it to me!
You’re a jerk!
Is that why you don't want the public to know
that we’re in a relationship?
So that you can continue flirting with other women?
Are you crazy?
Zach, don't.
Zach, I said stop.
- Zach, what the hell! - What happened then?
- What the hell! - He left.
Did you say anything to him before he left?
Nothing.
Miss Valencia,
what made you decide
to file a case against Zachary?
I know no one will believe me
because Zach and I have been having sex for a long time.
They think it's useless for me to complain about rape
because we are almost in a relationship.
But women deserve to be respected.
We should not be exploited.
We should not be forced.
We shouldn't be violated.
Your Honor, presenting Exhibit A,
medico-legal filed by the complainant that same night.
No further questions, Your Honor.
Does the defense have any questions for cross-examination?
Yes, Your Honor.
You may proceed.
Miss Valencia,
how long have you been dating Mr. Chua?
Six months.
How long have you been sexually active with Mr. Chua?
Six months.
In the span of six months,
could you tell me how many times you’ve had sex?
Objection! Irrelevant.
Your Honor,
we need to establish the dynamics of the apparent relationship
between the accused and the complainant.
We need to quantify how often they have sex.
This would help us figure out
if what happened to them was consensual or not.
Overruled.
Go on, Miss Madison.
Would you know how many times you've had sex with Mr. Chua?
I can't count anymore.
It's okay.
You can give me an estimate.
Is it once a week? Twice a week?
Every day?
Every week. We have sex every week.
So you have sex almost every week.
That is six months times four weeks.
So more or less, 24 times.
Am I correct?
- More or less. - How many rounds do you go in a day?
Objection! The question is vague.
Overruled.
Miss Valencia,
could you tell me how many times you have sex in one day?
Is it once a day,
twice a day, three times a day?
Give me a number.
Three, most of the time.
Sometimes, one or two.
- Maximum is eight times. - Eight.
Eight times.
I guess it's fair to say that you enjoy having sex with Mr. Chua?
- Objection! - Was it good?
Objection!
Sustained.
Miss Valencia,
you've had sex
with Mr. Chua numerous times.
Was there ever a time that he forced you
to have sex when you didn't want to?
That night only.
Did you say no directly?
Of course. I didn’t want it. That's why I said no.
Did he hear you say no?
I pushed him. I said, "Stop!" I said, "I don't want to."
Miss Valencia, I am going to repeat the question.
Did Mr. Chua hear you say no?
- Miss Valencia, do you understand - Stop it!
- that - You're crazy, right?
- you and Mr. Chua - Zach, stop!
- would have sex multiple times - Stop it!
- in a day? - Zach, stop!
Is there even the slightest chance
- that he might have misunderstood - Stop it, please.
- what you were saying? - Stop it!
That what came across was that
you didn't want him to stop what he was doing?
Objection!
- Sustained. - Miss Valencia,
do you love Mr. Chua?
Could you describe to me
your feelings for Mr. Chua
before the alleged rape on March 30th 2024?
Yes, I like him.
I love him.
Because I wouldn't agree to have sex with him
if I didn't have feelings for him.
But that night, I didn't want to.
But he continued anyway.
He forced me.
He raped me.
Miss Valencia,
what do you do for a living?
I'm an influencer.
How much is your monthly income?
Objection!
Your Honor, I am curious to know
how much Miss Madison makes.
I used to work for Atticus,
and I know how much they charge to represent a client.
If she was truly raped,
she wouldn't feel the need
to hire a high-end legal service
unless she sees
this case as an investment.
You invest in it
because you know you’ll get a lot of money from it.
- Objection! - Attorney, do you think I'm doing this
for money?
Is that what you think of me?
I did not say that.
Those words came out of your mouth.
No further questions, Your Honor.
I'm tired of this.
- Please. - I understand.
We'll take care of this.
- Madison, can we talk? - Fuck! What the hell!
- Zach. - Look, Madison.
- Please, relax. Look at me. - Don't come near me!
- What the hell! - Stop it, Zachary!
- Relax. - Come on, Madison.
Don't waste your time.
Stop this.
Are you stupid?
Why? You knew from the start that we were not in a relationship.
Fuck you!
- Zach, let's go. - Fuck you!
Just go!
- Keep him away, please! - We should leave!
- Madison! - Just go!
And you, Attorney, you’re also a woman.
Why are you defending that maniac?
Have you ever been hurt
and exploited by the man you once loved and trusted?
Madison, enough. It won't help the case.
Alex.
I'm sorry.
- No. - Alex.
How did that happen?
It just happened.
Give me a drink.
No. No.
You have no fucking right!
- No! - No?
Fuck you! No! Get the fuck out of here!
Fine! All right.
Fuck you!
You come in to my home and take my alcohol as if it's yours?
Fuck you!
Fine.
Tell me. Fuck!
How long have you been together?
Four months.
Where was I in those four months?
My feelings for you are real, Alex.
But what?
You’re marrying her.
Kate is pregnant.
Do you love her?
Hey.
- I need to marry her. - Bullshit!
Fuck! Fucking bullshit!
You need to marry her
not because she's fucking pregnant.
You need to marry her because of your fucking ambition!
Your fucking dreams!
Her fucking last name!
So, tell me.
Enough.
Enough!
Adam, enough! No!
I said, enough. No!
Stop!
Please.
No!
No! No!
No!
No! No! No!
No!
Alex.
Good morning.
Let me go.
About what happened to us last night,
you can't tell anyone, okay?
So that your fiancée won’t find out?
So that we can continue to work together well.
We're a team, right?
Let's forget that.
I have no intention of telling anybody about what happened.
Good.
Fuck you.
Adam.
Why am I no longer included in the Tuason case?
Not for now.
I already have preliminary research.
I have also talked to the client.
Write it down. Hand it over to me.
We can still use that.
What happened to us being a team?
Now we will keep on winning cases together?
You have many other cases.
You still have a case with Mr. Galang, don't you?
The annulment case.
Also, you're still training the new OJT.
That's it!
I didn't go to law school
and top the bar exams to become a nanny
to entitled law students
who just want to explore the legal world.
Why am I always assigned to train the OJTs?
No, I want to be in that case.
See?
That's why I took you off of the Tuason case.
- You are too emotional. - Wow.
You're also invested in that case. That won't help us.
Who knows, you might suddenly break down during the trial.
Oh, shit.
There will be other chances.
The problem with you women,
is that you easily get carried--
You are not rational because you are too emotional.
No, don't--
Don't give me that bullshit!
What are you saying about us women?
That we are emotional and you men are rational?
Emotions do not only involve crying.
You want to talk about men, and how men behave?
Being too proud, being hot-headed?
How about being rude and chauvinistic?
Tell me.
- It was Attorney Guevarra's idea. - Come on.
- I'm just following instructions. - Come on.
You're my senior associate.
If you really want to, you can find ways.
But you know what? I get it.
I know why you don't want me in this case.
Domestic abuse.
Betrayal.
Infidelity.
It hits close to home.
Attorney, Mr. Galang called
to say that we were unable to submit their annulment case.
What?
But I already gave my recommendation
to Adam last week.
Attorney Lucero is on leave.
Why is he on leave?
Because he is getting married this weekend to Ms. Kate.
So?
If the wedding is still on the weekend,
why is he taking an early leave?
Because the wedding is in Florence.
Florence?
As in Italy?
Okay.
When are they coming back?
I don't have any idea.
But they will have their honeymoon in Paris,
then to Vienna.
Then maybe go to Budapest too.
So, maybe next month.
Fuck!
You dozed off?
You're blocking the way.
Sorry, sorry.
Wait.
What am I blocking?
Do you know you look cute when being teased?
So you think you're cute too?
Yes.
Don't you think I’m cute now?
You're a lawyer now. You should be acting more mature.
Hold on a second.
We used to be okay.
Since the last time we saw each other
I noticed you find me so G.
What does G mean?
You find me gorgeous.
No? How about grumpy?
Why is that?
Is it because I'm with Atticus now?
They hired me.
I didn't force myself on them.
Plus,
you are the reason why they saw the potential in me.
Exis, we are not enemies here.
Okay?
We’re opposing parties in court.
But we can still be friends, right?
I always tell people
most of the things I've learned about being a lawyer,
I've learned them from you.
You haven't changed at all, Math.
- You think I'm still charming? - Oh, no.
You’re still arrogant.
Has anyone else read this?
No one, ma'am.
Next time, you need to be thorough
if you want to be a lawyer.
If a simple typo slips through you,
small details will also slip through
that will affect your case.
So redo this. You can't go home
until it's done.
Your wish is my command.
Mr. Caliente.
Math.
Okay. Math.
One of the things you should learn
if you really want to be a lawyer
is to have confidence.
Even though you know you’ll lose,
you should never show fear or doubt.
Check this.
When you are sure,
give it back to me.
Remember, if you have a mistake,
you will drive me for a month,
Math.
I agree with one month.
One more tip.
Respect your coworker's time.
Do not submit your work to your boss
during her break time.
Professionalism.
That's one of the things people like you should learn.
But you know, to be honest,
I think you've edged out a lot more qualified candidates
simply because of your surname.
The perks of being the favorite child
of very powerful parents.
You're wrong about one thing.
The reason I decided to train here
is that my dad doesn't want me to mess up in his firm,
unlike my other siblings
who were educated in Ivy League schools in the US.
Okay?
But,
I believe in you.
There are two typos. You spelled judgment wrong.
There's no letter E before ment.
In US spelling, there is only one E.
In the UK, my spelling is correct.
Both spellings are accepted.
Okay.
But in legal documents
they don't use E.
This is the only preferred spelling.
Anyway, I already put my address there
because I know you’ll lose.
So tomorrow pick me up early.
You’re late.
Traffic was too heavy. I live far from here, you know.
Oh, okay.
- So it's my fault? - Let me carry that for you.
Hmm?
This is for you.
I know you haven't had breakfast yet.
Thanks.
Please come early tomorrow.
How about some coffee?
Mr. Caliente, you started this bet.
You said you would drive for me if you lost.
Next time,
don't make promises you can't keep.
Noted, Attorney.
Thank you.
Wait.
I left my heart bag in your car.
- Your wish is my command. - Thank you.
- I'll go get it. - Thanks.
Is it part of the intern's training to drive for you?
You're back.
Did you miss me?
Didn't you just come back from your honeymoon?
Morning.
Ex.
Ex!
Hello?
What is this for?
I need you to sign this.
I’m done with my internship.
But why me?
Shouldn't you ask HR for this?
You are my direct supervisor.
Okay.
Sign it now.
So it’s your last day today.
I know our one month deal is not over yet.
It’s fine, you're off the hook.
How about if I teach you how to drive?
I don't have a car,
and I don't have money to buy my own car.
But one day, you will have one.
Manifesting.
In exchange for what?
Nothing.
Oh, come on.
Everything has a price.
Nothing.
And I'm sure if I teach you how to drive,
I can still learn something from you.
You can share some tips or advice
on how to be a good lawyer.
So you want something in return.
Sustained.
Hey, Caliente!
- Yeah? - How about a farewell party?
- That’s right. - Sure.
When?
Tonight.
- Are you inviting all of us? - Yes, all of you.
Yes, all of us. Let's go.
Attorney, you should come.
You didn’t give up mentoring me. I owe you a lot.
What’s going on?
Attorney, Math will be having a farewell party tonight.
You should come, Ms. Kate.
I’ll go ahead. I have a meeting.
- Cheers for Matthew! - Cheers!
- For Matthew! - Thank you, guys!
- Finally, I can enjoy my lunch! - Congrats!
Thank you, Lord!
- You’re mean. - That’s harsh.
He always bothers me.
By the way, Attorney, how was the honeymoon?
Of course, it was fun.
Wow.
Which city is more romantic?
Paris or Florence?
Actually, it's Florence.
Nice.
- He wanted us to go there. - Well, there you go.
He made the whole itinerary and everything.
- Very sweet. - That's true.
But everywhere is romantic
because I'm with him.
So sweet.
Who wants to order more food? You might still want to order.
Are you having a baby soon?
That's for sure.
That's my man.
Cheers for Attorney Lucero and Ms. Kate!
- Congratulations, guys! - Thank you.
Congrats.
- Congratulations. - Sorry.
Excuse me for a sec.
Sorry.
Thank you so much.
Hey, guys. Let's have a drink.
Matthew is asking for more food. Let's order.
What is this? Solo flight?
They're a bunch of losers.
Does it still hurt?
Which one?
Seeing Attorney Lucero
with his new wife.
Why?
Why are you looking at me like that?
Nothing. For happy vibes.
Oh.
It's annoying.
Well, what makes you think I'm sad?
Is it because Adam is married,
and they went on their honeymoon to Florence.
Did you know that I was the one who told him about Florence?
That's where I wanted to go with him.
But that's life.
It’s no big deal.
They're having a baby.
I get you.
You’re hurt.
You got angry.
But what stuck with me during our conversation that time was
that no matter what Attorney Lucero did
you still love him so much--
Idiot.
Fuck you. Keep quiet.
My gosh.
Shit.
Well.
So, why do you want to be a lawyer?
Aren't you from a family of lawyers?
Is that the reason why
that is the path you want to take?
Well, growing up,
I would always listen to my dad
talk to his clients during the day,
and it caught my attention.
So I said, one day
I just want to be like my dad.
How about you?
Same. I became a lawyer because of my father.
Is he also a lawyer?
Criminal.
- Criminal? - It’s true.
- Is he a criminal? - Yes he is.
- Are you serious? - It's true. He’s a convicted felon.
Sorry.
There's no need to say sorry.
Well...
My father was accused of stealing
from a pawnshop in our province.
He ran away.
You see,
my mom’s world revolved around my father.
So when my father disappeared,
her life lost meaning.
She got sick. And then
she passed away.
So my aunt put me through school.
And here I am.
Where’s your father now?
I searched for him for a long time.
I finally found him after 15 years.
He is in jail for a different case.
Estafa.
Papa.
Merry Christmas, Papa.
I read your name in the newspaper.
I thought someone has the same name as you.
It said that person is a lawyer.
I strongly believed that it was you.
Papa, I have a gift for you.
This is your favorite.
Sorry.
I can't help crying.
Papa, I became a lawyer because of you.
And I will make sure that you will get out of here.
I will find a way.
I am not a victim.
It's true that I stole from the pawnshop.
I was just scared to go to jail,
so I ran away. I did not face up to my crime.
It’s all true.
The Estafa case.
I'm not...
I am not a victim.
- And then what? - I did not try to see him again.
Were you able to help him?
No.
I was unable to help him.
Because you see, Math,
the reason I became a lawyer is
because I want to help people like my father.
Those who were wrongly accused
who no one believed or helped to prove their innocence.
Only for me to find out that my father is actually guilty.
Ex, is that really the reason?
You probably felt betrayed.
It's like all the reasons why you did that
was all because of a lie.
Hold that thought.
I'm going to the ladies' room.
Why?
Are you doing this on purpose?
Huh?
Are you using the kid to make me jealous?
Excuse me.
Not everything is about you.
Okay.
You win.
I'm jealous.
So that's enough. Please.
Don't drag him into this nonsense.
What? Hold on.
Who are you to tell me what I should do?
Let me remind you of something.
You're married.
And your wife is here.
Excuse me, please.
- Excuse me. - Alex.
What?
You are still the one I want.
Oh, fuck.
Hon?
Oh.
It’s early in the morning.
Let's go.
What?
I thought our deal was over?
I promised to teach you how to drive. Right?
It’s the weekend.
I made a promise, and I want to keep it.
So you’re serious about that.
Mm-hmm.
Today is a perfect day.
Watch your hand.
Okay. Here are the keys.
- All right, and then? - Ignition.
Wait. How do I do this? What should I do?
Turn clockwise.
- That's it. - You got it, okay.
And then?
- Slowly go into drive. - Drive.
And then slowly press on the gas.
Are you sure about this?
- Smoothly, yes. - Wait.
- Yeah, okay.
You're doing good.
Good, they have it!
Attorney.
What are you getting?
Stay away from my husband.
What?
Do you want me to say it again?
Should I make it louder for people to hear?
Look, I don't know what Adam told you.
I know your kind.
Using their beauty
to succeed.
Excuse me?
First, my husband.
Then your intern.
Who's next?
My father?
Look at me!
I'm sorry, but I won't stoop down to your level.
Why not?
- Because I'm your boss’s daughter? - No.
Because you are pregnant.
Who...
- How did you-- - Why don't you ask your husband?
He told me.
Hmm?
You are bluffing.
I'll get a devil's food cake, please.
- One slice. - One slice.
Yes, one slice. Oh, do you want some?
Oh, I guess you wouldn't need it.
You married one.
I'll just be here.
Thanks.
Hi, sir.
I have good news.
I discovered something about the annulment case of Mr. Galang.
So his--
Alexis, sit down.
Okay.
Did you have a relationship
with the intern, Matthew Caliente?
What?
No, sir.
How about my son-in-law, Adam?
Sir...
Did he have an affair with you?
No, sir.
Are you in love with him?
Sir, with all due respect,
there's nothing...
There's nothing going on, sir.
I will not fire you,
but I want your resignation
- on my desk immediately. - Sir, no.
Sir, I know my rights.
Sir, you cannot fire me.
What you did with that young intern, Caliente,
can be construed as sexual harassment.
Sir, first of all,
I did not do anything with Mr. Caliente.
And I know the law.
Sir, you can't use this against me.
Maybe not now.
Maybe not in two days, not two months.
But in a few years, who knows?
Somebody may file a complaint.
Sir. No one's going to file a complaint, sir.
Because there was no sexual harassment.
There was no sexual harassment
between me and Matthew.
His parents are very influential.
And they are powerful.
Yes, sir, I understand.
But sir, I am not afraid.
Because I know the truth.
I know the truth.
There is nothing going on between me and Mr. Caliente.
We all have our truths.
And you know
lawyers can create any version
of the truth they want.
Your shenanigans with this young Caliente
can cost me a client,
can cost me a case,
and even millions of pesos in the future.
Do you have anything to do with this?
Nothing.
There are malicious rumormongers who made up stories
about me and Math.
It's either you
or your wife.
Maybe you worked together to get me fired.
Alex, you know how much I admire you.
- Oh, fuck. - You're competent. You're efficient.
You're an asset here.
You’re a loss to Atticus.
Save the fucking praises! Enough!
Fuck it.
Even now,
you are still good at gaslighting.
Be grateful.
I choose my battles.
I did not tell a single soul
of what you did to me.
But you know what? One day, we will cross paths,
and I'll be strong enough.
I'll be fucking strong enough to tell everybody.
Tell them what?
You know exactly what you did.
I texted you when I passed my bar exam.
I changed my number when I left Atticus.
New life?
Starting on a clean slate?
Wait.
Do you think I won't know that you're now a lawyer?
When Atticus hired me,
I thought you were still there.
I was excited.
So why did you leave Atticus?
Let's not talk about it.
It’s over.
It’s done.
All right.
The important thing
is that you have your own firm now.
And I’m up against Atticus now.
When I was fired from Atticus,
I thought that was the end of my career.
As in
I felt like I was a failure.
Why did you leave Atticus?
Sorry, we're not hiring.
You were fired at Atticus?
No, Attorney. I wasn't fired.
I resigned.
I was fired. I didn't leave.
What?
That's stupid.
You're so good.
You know that Guevarra fired me because of you?
Me?
Well, not exactly you.
Adam and Kate fabricated this story.
They said things to Guevarra.
You won't believe this.
Guevarra fired me
because he thought
I sexually harassed you.
What?
I know.
- I had no idea. - Yeah.
I'm actually surprised they never talk about it.
Well, I guess because Atticus's name will be ruined.
Too bad.
About what? That you didn’t find out about it?
Too bad it’s not true.
I'd be willing.
Wow.
Oh.
Oh, no.
Bad joke.
- Sorry. - Terrible.
Terrible joke.
Rape, abuse, harassment.
No.
You can’t joke about this. Bad joke.
And yet,
you are defending someone accused of rape.
Okay.
Well, it's unethical
to talk about that outside the court.
I'm sorry. I just...
I just got carried away.
To be honest
I'm nervous right now.
Okay.
I know why.
You're scared, right?
You’re scared I’ll beat you.
Well.
No.
I'm nervous now because
you’re in front of me.
Oh.
Okay.
Well, there's really nothing to be nervous about.
I mean, we're just two former colleagues.
You know, just catching up.
I know you remember.
- Okay. - Nice.
- All right. - Just wait.
- Just a little. - There you go.
I did it! Oh, my God!
Yeah.
Yeah, I remember.
Clearly.
Oh, no.
You're beautiful.
May I
proceed?
Yes.
Were you intoxicated when you went to see Madison?
Objection!
Irrelevant.
Your Honor, the question will determine
- if the defendant's reasoning - It's like they're set to eat each other.
may have been impaired.
Tell me to stop.
Okay.
Stop.
I have to go to work.
Work?
Come work here first.
You can't leave.
Daisy?
Yes, Ms. A.?
Where are you going?
I’m going out to do some bank errands.
I need you to take care of something for me.
- Oh, sure. - Can you go to this address?
That's the name and that's the address.
- Okay. - Can you check on his case
and see if he can post bail?
Okay, will do.
Oh. Renante Miranda.
Are you related?
Yes, my father.
Your father?
- Okay. - Thank you.
- I got you. - Thank you.
No problem. I’m going now.
- Bye. - Bye.
I'll see you.
Ms. A.?
- Yes? - Ms. A., we have a big problem.
What is it?
There is a viral post now on the Internet.
I was raped by Zachary Chua.
You know him as a sweet, charming guy.
That's exactly what he wants you to believe
before abusing you.
Here.
This is great for us.
New victim coming out,
we can use that in our case.
The account was just made a few hours ago.
It’s obviously a dummy account.
If she cannot identify herself or cooperate with us,
it's inadmissible.
Then you should look for her.
Madison, we need to talk to your friend.
Your friend, Sharmaine.
What about her?
She went with Madison
to the police station to file the report.
When she becomes our witness,
she can help us win the case.
Where is Sharmaine now?
Actually,
she was the one who told me to go to Atticus
because the lawyers here are good.
To be honest,
I can't contact her anymore.
She blocked my number,
as well as my social media.
Do you know where she lives?
Where she works?
We can send her a subpoena
to force her to be a witness.
She said she went missing.
How do we send a subpoena?
Let's not waste energy
and time with a hostile witness.
She was with the victim hours after the rape.
If she gives her testimony--
She is a friend of the victim.
So she won't say anything that's not in our favor.
What we need is someone not connected to Madison
to say that Zachary raped her.
That will strengthen our case
because we will be able to prove Zachary's character
is that he forces himself on women.
Do we understand each other, Attorney Caliente?
Attorneys, whoever we talk to,
it's fine with me.
Just to prove that Zach raped me.
We will serve the best possible evidence for your case.
We will set up another meeting before your trial.
Thank you, Attorney.
This is the first and the last time
you will answer back to me like that in front of our clients.
Do we understand each other?
Make me.
That's fake news.
Do you know her?
Who is this woman?
He's a monster and a rapist.
He should be in jail.
- It's obvious that it's a troll account. - Zach, please.
Look, it’s a newly created account.
I'm sure Madison is behind this.
- Don’t you realize that? - Have you had a similar experience
with another woman,
the same thing that happened between you and Madison?
None!
There’s none.
- What do you think of me? - Please, Zachary... Think carefully.
Among all the women you've had sex with
was there a single woman you forced yourself on to?
Attorney,
are you blind?
Look at me. I don't need to force or rape a woman.
Girls beg me to have sex with them.
There were even times I got raped!
Tell her, Joni!
Zach, I need your cooperation.
If this woman
becomes a witness for the opposing party
we're going to have a hard time.
That's why I'm paying you. Isn't that part of your job?
- Fix it. - Zach!
- What’s going on, Joni? - What I'm asking for
- is your cooperation, Zach. - My God.
We need to work together.
Joni, I told you, let's just find someone else.
Zach, can you stop, please?
She doesn’t know how to do her job.
- Zach! - That's it! Get out!
- Get out! - No!
- Yeah, leave! - Attorney.
No, no, no! He's not cooperating.
- Get out! - Attorney, Attorney, wait!
Zach, sit down!
I'm sorry, Attorney.
Zach.
Please tell Attorney everything that happened,
so she can determine how to help you.
Your endorsements are dropping you one by one.
You are losing followers daily.
Just imagine if this case continues.
Your image depends on this.
So, please cooperate.
Attorney.
Zachary is going to listen now.
Is there something you want to tell us?
Miss Valencia,
on the night of March 30th 2024,
when Mr. Chua has left the vacation rental,
what did you do?
I called my friend.
What is the name of your friend?
Sharmaine. Sharmaine Antonio.
I’m here for you.
- Don't be afraid. - How may I assist you?
Sir, can we file a rape complaint?
Rosario!
She went with me to the police station to file a complaint.
Okay, anything else?
She also accompanied me to get a medico-legal report.
So, Miss Valencia, you're telling me that
this Sharmaine Antonio
was with you that night after the alleged rape?
I just said that, didn't I?
Miss Valencia, please answer with respect.
Is Sharmaine Antonio here with us today?
She’s not here.
Miss Valencia, we've had three court hearings.
Was there ever a time that she came here
to show support?
Objection! Irrelevant.
Sustained.
Miss Valencia, where is Sharmaine Antonio?
I don't know where she is.
When was the last time you spoke to her?
Objection! Irrelevant.
Your Honor, I don't get why the opposing counsel
is so fixated with this Sharmaine.
Your Honor, Miss Madison Valencia
has stated that Sharmaine Antonio
was the first person she called
after the alleged rape.
Miss Madison Valencia
has stated that Sharmaine Antonio
was with her when she went to the police station
and had her medical examination
after the alleged rape.
With these statements, you would assume
that they would have a very close relationship.
But Your Honor, isn't it questionable
that we have not once seen Sharmaine Antonio
in any of our court hearings?
Why isn't she here?
Why isn't she here to show support?
Why isn't she on the witness stand
giving her own testimony?
Your Honor, I'll tell you why.
Sharmaine Antonio isn't here
because everything
that Miss Madison Valencia had stated
were lies.
That even her friend
feels disinclined to show support.
Or maybe Sharmaine Antonio
doesn't really exist in the first place.
Maybe she was just some made-up person
just like this made-up rape accusation.
Objection!
I am telling the truth!
I was with Sharmaine.
I just don't know what happened, why she suddenly disappeared.
I don't know where she is.
But she was there the night Zach raped me.
Check the CCTV!
Check with the precinct!
Order in the court!
She was there!
Yes, she was there!
Order in the court!
- Attorney Miranda. - Oh.
Attorney, I'll go ahead.
How can you defend that man who abused a fellow woman?
Why are you doing this?
Miss Valencia,
even criminals
can hire lawyers to defend them.
So you admit that Zach is a criminal?
I didn't say anything like that.
I took an oath.
I have to defend the client who sought my help.
Even if he is wrong?
The judge will decide that.
My job
is to defend my client
to the best of my abilities, okay?
Now, if you'll excuse me.
We're not done yet!
Stop!
Madison, please!
Are you okay?
- Ouch! - What, Attorney?
- Is this just about the money?! - Calm down!
Where is your integrity?!
Is winning the case more important to you--
- Stop. - than upholding the truth?
I want justice, Attorney!
Madison, please.
This won't help the case.
Go home now.
Go home for now.
Are you okay?
- Are you hurt? - No. I'm fine.
- What about you? Are you okay? - Okay.
Oh, dear.
Aren't we doing anything against Madison
for what she did?
It's annoying.
News spreads fast.
Videos are all over the Internet.
You know nowadays,
anyone with a cellphone can be a reporter.
But this is the best video.
Ms. A. This is so sweet!
Sir Math is so tender with you.
All right, back to work.
You look good together, Ms. A.
Let's go back to work.
Lester, can you go to the precinct
- where Madison filed a complaint? - Sure.
Check the CCTV if she really went with a friend. Got it?
- Copy. - Marisue, please
look for Sharmaine Antonio.
You are no longer representing Madison's case.
You're conniving with the opposing counsel.
Can’t two lawyers from opposing sides be friends?
Alexis used to work at Atticus.
She trained me.
Yes, that’s conflict of interest.
Your history with her might impair your judgment.
Damn it, Adam.
Watch your language, Caliente.
Sir, you saw the video.
What are your thoughts?
I agree with Adam.
You and Attorney Miranda,
you're too comfortable with each other.
Opposing counsels cannot have a relationship with each other.
Before our client notices
and complains,
you're off the case, Matthew.
Stand by.
What is your message to Madison, Attorney?
Let your bravery
and resilience inspire others
to come forward,
to break the chains of silence,
and to reclaim their lives.
No one,
regardless of their relationship status,
should have to endure such an ordeal.
As a married man with a daughter,
I am doing this
not only for the justice of one woman
but for the countless victims
whose voices have been silenced,
- whose pain has been trivialized, - Fuck it.
whose lives have changed forever.
You are worse than my client.
Starting today,
I will be representing Madison in court.
I stand by my husband
in this battle.
If you defend a rapist
you become an enabler.
You are complicit in the crime.
This is a reminder that we should strive
for a culture
- Hello? - where every woman
Ms. A, we have a report regarding Sharmaine Antonio.
secured and respected.
Dance properly!
You, Gab! You should be in the middle, Ali!
And you, Kisses.
Give it your best! Fix your posture.
Is this the way I taught you to perform?
Grind your hips with sexiness!
How will you get customers if you dance like that?
Performance level!
Sharmaine, my baby!
Hi. You're so pretty.
Your regular customer is already here Remember to do your job well.
- Go. - Leave it to me.
You can do it.
- Dance properly. - So annoying.
Spin around. Not like that.
Excuse me.
So happy to see you again.
- How are you? - I’m doing well here.
You need something from me,
but you made me come all the way here instead.
Excuse me, Attorney.
Attorney Miranda.
Yes?
Maybe you miss Atticus
for nostalgia's sake?
Trust me, it's not nostalgia I feel.
Let’s proceed to Attorney Guevarra’s office?
Okay.
So, what do you think?
No.
Come on, Alexis.
Attorney Lucero,
we will not agree to a settlement.
We will not pay your client.
I will prove that Zachary is innocent.
Even if he is not really innocent?
The judge will decide that.
And besides,
I know of one rapist who was not convicted.
And he is even a practicing lawyer.
See you in court,
Attorney?
Sharmaine Antonio?
What do you need?
Do you know me?
You're the lawyer of Madison's rapist, right?
Why don't you testify?
You should be happy.
There's no witness against your client.
I'm just wondering.
I already went with Madison to the police.
Maybe that's enough, right?
Are you afraid to speak in court?
Is someone preventing you?
What happened to Madison
also happened to me and my coworkers.
Each night we deal with abuse and harassment.
But did they hear anything from us?
Did we ever complain?
No.
Because we need to make money.
So we put up with it.
Sharmaine, I don't want to invalidate your feelings,
even though you and Madison
went through different experiences.
It is definitely different.
That Zach?
He is her boyfriend.
So why would she put him in jail?
If Madison wants attention,
if she wants to make money out that incident,
it's her choice.
As long as she doesn't drag me into it.
I'm not like her.
I am not that lucky.
You see, I have bills to pay.
I need to pay rent, food,
and my sibling’s tuition fees.
Criminal Case No. 82539.
For failure of the prosecution
to present sufficient evidence
to prove the guilt of the accused beyond reasonable doubt,
the accused, Zachary Chua, is hereby acquitted.
Joni, I'm acquitted!
Attorney, thank you.
- Congratulations, guys! - I'm free!
Very well done, team.
Attorney, thank you very much for your help.
I will send the full payment to your office immediately.
Thank you very much.
Come on, let's take a picture.
Congratulations, guys. Let’s take a picture.
Finally.
All right, stay there.
Hi, Math.
You're here.
Congratulations.
Good job.
Thank you.
Let me carry your bag.
What a day.
So...
When are you leaving Atticus?
Effective immediately.
Where are you moving to?
Well, me and my dad are okay now.
Wow, that's good.
Actually, he wants to make me a partner
in Caliente and Frio.
But I said,
I can be a Head Associate first.
- I'm not ready for a higher position yet. - No.
You can do it.
Look, I saw
how you handled Madison's case.
And you're more than ready.
We still lost.
It's not your fault.
It's all Adam's fault.
Thank you for this.
I'm sorry, Papa.
I was only able to visit today.
Someone came here the other day.
She said you sent her and was asking for details.
Yes, she’s my assistant.
She’s taking care of your bail.
I'm fine here. It's just a waste of your money.
Papa.
It's just money, Papa.
What's important is for you to be free.
I have committed a crime.
I have to suffer the consequences.
Can we be honest here?
There are many guilty people
who don’t get punished.
There are so many people here
who are really innocent.
I know that.
My sentence is almost over.
I will be free soon.
Papa.
The world is not fair.
Alexis,
we all make mistakes.
But it doesn't mean
we are sinners.
All mistakes
can be forgiven
if we honestly accept our mistakes.
That...
That is where learning begins.
That learning will make us
become better people.
Madison.
Take a seat.
Thank you.
I ordered coffee for you.
Attorney,
why do you want to talk to me?
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry
I didn't win your case.
But, we can still do something about this.
I'm with another law firm, Madison.
And I want to help you.
We will file a petition
for certiorari in the court of appeals.
What happens when we do this?
If granted by the court,
the decision will be reversed.
Zachary will go to jail.
Madison Valencia?
Yes?
Documents for you.
Who sent these?
Please sign here.
Thank you.
I think this is for you.
Attorney Miranda.
I received some research,
transcripts and recordings of my case against Zachary.
But until now, I still don't know who sent them.
Was it you?
What is this? An atonement for defending a criminal?
He really raped me.
But why did you defend him?
Because for Zachary...
it wasn’t rape.
For him,
there was nothing wrong with what he did.
It is what it is, Madison.
The court did not find enough evidence.
Is that why you are helping me and Attorney Caliente?
I was like you in the past, Madison.
I fell in love.
I was kept hidden.
Adam and Kate are getting married.
I was somebody's secret.
And
he abused me.
Adam!
Enough!
- Stop! - I loved somebody.
I trusted him, but...
he violated me.
No!
So I know how you feel.
I was raped.
Did you tell anyone?
That was one of my biggest regrets.
I was scared.
I was embarrassed.
But I realized...
why should I be embarrassed?
Wasn't he the one at fault?
Wasn't he the one who did something wrong? Why should I be embarrassed?
He should be ashamed of himself.
I admire your courage, Madison.
Good for you.
You did what I couldn't do.
So, you didn't get justice?
Legally?
No.
But,
justice is not only obtained in court.
Come in, Sharmaine.
Alexis?
Yes.
- Stop that. - If not, then what?
I will sue you!
For what?
You did worse to me.
Do you remember what you did to me that night?
Huh?
You raped me.
No one will believe you.
Nobody fucking gives a shit!
All I have to do is show this video.
And then your wife
and your father-in-law
will know the kind of man that you truly are.
Disbarment. Grossly immoral conduct.
Alexis, please!
I'm sorry!
Alexis.
Don't ruin my life! Don't ruin my career!
I'm sorry for what I did! Please!
Shit!
No!
The Supreme Court has unanimously disbarred
lawyer Adam Lucero
over his viral video scandal.
- Thank you. - Case closed.
You rant that I bring work on trips,
but you are working right now.
So what does that mean?
Well, it means you will drive for me
for a whole year.
If you want, even forever.
Let's go.
