00:00:44,212 --> 00:00:46,632
These tactics are seriously wrong.
4
00:00:46,657 --> 00:00:47,912
I mean, swatting?
5
00:00:47,937 --> 00:00:49,107
Valerie warned us
6
00:00:49,132 --> 00:00:50,488
that someone would try to break us up,
7
00:00:50,512 --> 00:00:51,583
and that's what she's doing.
8
00:00:51,607 --> 00:00:52,621
- No.
- Yes.
9
00:00:52,646 --> 00:00:54,237
We know where you live.
10
00:00:54,262 --> 00:00:56,487
Where you work, where
your husband works.
11
00:00:56,512 --> 00:00:59,972
You make one call, tell one person,

00:01:00,775 --> 00:01:02,642
we're coming for you.

♪ The Good Fight 3x10 ♪
The One About the End of the World
14
00:02:36,916 --> 00:02:38,243
Of course, we're all very excited
15
00:02:38,267 --> 00:02:40,477
about the president's
visit, and we would like you
16
00:02:40,622 --> 00:02:42,270
to be featured at the event, Kurt.
17
00:02:42,295 --> 00:02:44,022
- Me? Are you sure?
- Of course,
18
00:02:44,047 --> 00:02:45,638
you're the Midwestern regional director.
19
00:02:45,662 --> 00:02:47,502
We'd like you to
introduce President Trump
20
00:02:47,527 --> 00:02:49,308
and then stand with
the rest of the delegation
21
00:02:49,332 --> 00:02:50,812
when the president makes his remarks.
22
00:02:51,418 --> 00:02:54,052
And let the president know
what an awesome job he's doing.
23
00:02:54,426 --> 00:02:57,262
Send us a draft of your remarks
as soon as you can, oka... ?
24
00:02:57,342 --> 00:02:58,362
Okay.
25
00:02:59,397 --> 00:03:00,447
Hey.
26
00:03:00,472 --> 00:03:01,722
What was that about?
27
00:03:01,802 --> 00:03:02,952
Nothing. Work.
28
00:03:08,602 --> 00:03:11,562
You've served this firm
with dignity and grace.
29
00:03:11,652 --> 00:03:13,692
And we're sure you'll
do the same on the bench.
30
00:03:13,717 --> 00:03:15,217
So you don't need my advice,
31
00:03:15,242 --> 00:03:18,072
but I will tell you what
my folks would tell me
32
00:03:18,207 --> 00:03:19,797
whenever I'd leave the house.
33
00:03:19,822 --> 00:03:21,802
Now, you drink lots of water
34
00:03:21,827 --> 00:03:23,059
and don't embarrass us.
35
00:03:23,084 --> 00:03:25,092
To Julius.
36
00:03:25,117 --> 00:03:26,597
- Julius.
- Thank you.
37
00:03:27,582 --> 00:03:30,372
I got to admit, I-I love this place.
38
00:03:30,462 --> 00:03:34,422
I love how, despite ourselves,
39
00:03:34,502 --> 00:03:36,052
we're a family.
40
00:03:38,633 --> 00:03:39,716
Lucca Quinn.
41
00:03:39,741 --> 00:03:40,938
I agree.
42
00:03:41,157 --> 00:03:43,617
Lucca has really stepped
up in matrimonial.
43
00:03:43,642 --> 00:03:45,932
She's only a fourth-year associate.
44
00:03:46,269 --> 00:03:49,272
Yeah, and associates become
partners faster these days,
45
00:03:49,297 --> 00:03:50,457
- or they leave.
- Yeah.
46
00:03:50,482 --> 00:03:52,175
Well, if we're worried
about associates leaving,
47
00:03:52,199 --> 00:03:53,739
I'm more worried about Rosalyn.
48
00:03:53,764 --> 00:03:55,628
I agree. She's kicking
ass in litigation.
49
00:03:55,652 --> 00:03:57,167
But didn't we promise it to Lucca?
50
00:03:58,238 --> 00:03:59,337
Yes, we did, we did.
51
00:03:59,362 --> 00:04:02,616
And Lucca has brought in much
more business than Rosalyn.
52
00:04:02,641 --> 00:04:03,678
That's not true.
53
00:04:03,703 --> 00:04:05,499
Look at the billable
hours for the last year.
54
00:04:05,967 --> 00:04:07,202
Rosalyn has Lucca beat.
55
00:04:07,227 --> 00:04:10,220
But only because Lucca had
three months of maternity leave.
56
00:04:10,245 --> 00:04:11,367
Come on, we're not gonna
punish her for that.
57
00:04:11,391 --> 00:04:12,601
- Months of maternity leave?
- What does that mean?
58
00:04:12,625 --> 00:04:14,617
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Oh, my God,
59
00:04:14,642 --> 00:04:17,592
does everything have to
be an argument, you guys?
60
00:04:17,945 --> 00:04:21,147
Can we just have a cordial
and intelligent discussion?
61
00:04:21,172 --> 00:04:22,682
Okay, this is my argument.
62
00:04:22,902 --> 00:04:24,474
- They're both deserving.
- Yeah.
63
00:04:24,499 --> 00:04:26,577
But the advantage of Rosalyn
64
00:04:26,602 --> 00:04:29,426
is what she does for
the culture of this firm.
65
00:04:29,451 --> 00:04:31,148
- I don't know what that means.
- I can understand
66
00:04:31,172 --> 00:04:33,616
- why you wouldn't.
- Are you saying what I think you're saying?
67
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,998
- Hey, if the shoe fits.
- All right, all right.
68
00:04:39,572 --> 00:04:40,732
What's going on?
69
00:04:45,162 --> 00:04:46,492
We were both threatened.
70
00:04:46,517 --> 00:04:47,647
By who?
71
00:04:47,672 --> 00:04:51,653
A Rachelle Max from DLE Strategies.
72
00:04:51,678 --> 00:04:54,212
- A competitor?
- No, someone we worked with.
73
00:04:54,525 --> 00:04:55,925
Do you know why she threatened you?
74
00:04:57,655 --> 00:04:58,687
It's a long story.
75
00:04:58,712 --> 00:05:00,921
When I asked you
to look into Valerie Peyser,
76
00:05:01,991 --> 00:05:03,237
it's connected to that.
77
00:05:03,262 --> 00:05:04,532
The woman in Rikers?
78
00:05:04,557 --> 00:05:05,626
Right.
79
00:05:06,579 --> 00:05:08,552
Okay. I'll look into it.
80
00:05:08,878 --> 00:05:10,181
And, Jay,
81
00:05:10,876 --> 00:05:13,882
she won't seem dangerous, but she is.
82
00:05:18,815 --> 00:05:21,025
Oh, sorry, sorry to keep you waiting.
83
00:05:21,782 --> 00:05:23,742
- Uh...
- There was a partner meeting upstairs.
84
00:05:23,822 --> 00:05:27,456
Hmm. You remember
Mr. Cardwell from 2016.
85
00:05:27,481 --> 00:05:29,292
We won the settlement
with the Chicago PD.
86
00:05:29,317 --> 00:05:31,042
Yes, police brutality.
87
00:05:31,122 --> 00:05:32,662
Some broken ribs. How are you, Perry?
88
00:05:32,752 --> 00:05:35,712
Fine. Having a little trouble.
89
00:05:36,421 --> 00:05:38,803
I thought I'd invest
my settlement money like you said,
90
00:05:38,828 --> 00:05:41,282
but I lost my job and
I've been living on it.
91
00:05:41,307 --> 00:05:42,665
He wants to know if it's possible
92
00:05:42,690 --> 00:05:44,899
to get any more from the PD.
93
00:05:45,524 --> 00:05:46,932
More money?
94
00:05:49,004 --> 00:05:50,682
Actually, I, uh...
95
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,062
I don't think so, Perry.
We signed a general release
96
00:05:54,207 --> 00:05:55,917
with the city and the police department
97
00:05:55,942 --> 00:05:57,747
relieving them of further claims.
98
00:05:57,772 --> 00:05:59,692
Is it possible I could
get some of what you took?
99
00:06:01,601 --> 00:06:05,282
Well, we only took what
we agreed upon, Perry.
100
00:06:05,307 --> 00:06:07,357
Don't forget we worked
on your case for...
101
00:06:07,908 --> 00:06:09,087
three and a half years.
102
00:06:09,362 --> 00:06:10,885
Expenses are expenses.
103
00:06:10,910 --> 00:06:12,372
Between expenses and your percentage,
104
00:06:12,396 --> 00:06:13,766
you come away with more than I do.
105
00:06:14,042 --> 00:06:15,455
I'm living on the streets.
106
00:06:17,722 --> 00:06:19,752
Look, why don't we do this?
107
00:06:19,832 --> 00:06:22,538
We got some contacts at
local Housing Services.
108
00:06:23,002 --> 00:06:24,122
One second.
109
00:06:26,342 --> 00:06:29,082
Warn building security.
There might be some issue here.
110
00:06:33,198 --> 00:06:34,958
This is crap and you know it!
111
00:06:34,983 --> 00:06:36,223
Uh, Jim.
112
00:06:36,248 --> 00:06:37,257
Calm down...
113
00:06:37,281 --> 00:06:38,828
- Need some help over here.
- This is bullshit!
114
00:06:38,852 --> 00:06:41,062
Why don't you get
one of the white guys you hired?
115
00:06:44,072 --> 00:06:45,159
Mm-hmm.
116
00:06:46,996 --> 00:06:48,586
Reddick/Boseman sucks!
117
00:06:49,089 --> 00:06:51,412
They was my lawyers and
they made more than me!
118
00:06:51,812 --> 00:06:53,119
Fuck them all!
119
00:06:58,721 --> 00:07:00,292
Perry, how was it?
120
00:07:01,139 --> 00:07:02,299
They were assholes.
121
00:07:04,799 --> 00:07:07,872
Maybe you qualify
for government assistance of some kind.
122
00:07:07,897 --> 00:07:09,817
Section 8 housing, food stamps...
123
00:07:09,842 --> 00:07:11,962
So what happens now?
124
00:07:37,724 --> 00:07:39,314
And no one has an inside edge.
125
00:07:39,582 --> 00:07:42,632
We make a smart decision
based on culture.
126
00:07:42,712 --> 00:07:43,832
Oh, no.
127
00:07:43,857 --> 00:07:45,567
What? I might have good news.
128
00:07:45,712 --> 00:07:47,422
When have you ever had good news?
129
00:07:51,128 --> 00:07:52,258
Diane Lockhart...
130
00:07:53,829 --> 00:07:54,969
Liz Reddick...
131
00:07:55,762 --> 00:07:57,024
you've been served.
132
00:07:57,307 --> 00:07:58,407
And you, too.
133
00:08:00,602 --> 00:08:03,342
And can anyone point me
toward Adrian Boseman?
134
00:08:05,077 --> 00:08:06,877
- It's a nuisance suit.
- I agree.
135
00:08:06,902 --> 00:08:09,797
Blum has been disbarred. He
can't even represent himself.
136
00:08:09,822 --> 00:08:11,072
Maybe he hired someone.
137
00:08:11,073 --> 00:08:12,246
But who would work with him?
138
00:08:12,271 --> 00:08:14,968
Well, the problem is: this suit
makes you look like the bad guys.
139
00:08:14,992 --> 00:08:17,510
"You"? So now you're
in the third person?
140
00:08:17,535 --> 00:08:19,372
Thanks, Julius. This was your suit...
141
00:08:19,397 --> 00:08:22,097
I did nothing wrong.
My position before...
142
00:08:22,122 --> 00:08:23,688
was exactly as it is now.
143
00:08:23,712 --> 00:08:25,108
- It's putting this firm...
- Wait, wait, wait.
144
00:08:25,132 --> 00:08:28,002
Wait. Just wait. Now listen,
we've lost Chumhum.
145
00:08:28,092 --> 00:08:29,394
We lost my dad's name
146
00:08:29,419 --> 00:08:33,161
and now Blum is coming after
the last strength that we have:
147
00:08:33,186 --> 00:08:34,216
our reputation.
148
00:08:34,241 --> 00:08:36,496
We'll no longer be the
defender of the underdog;
149
00:08:36,521 --> 00:08:38,291
we'll be seen as their exploiter.
150
00:08:38,316 --> 00:08:41,247
So we go in hard and get this dismissed.
151
00:08:41,272 --> 00:08:42,642
You'll notice I said "we".
152
00:08:42,667 --> 00:08:44,337
There may be one problem with that.
153
00:08:44,845 --> 00:08:46,837
We're appearing before Judge Toosi.
154
00:08:46,862 --> 00:08:47,887
Who's that?
155
00:08:47,912 --> 00:08:49,297
He's a-a new judge.
156
00:08:49,322 --> 00:08:50,442
A Trump appointee.
157
00:08:50,532 --> 00:08:52,698
You see, this is why we need
158
00:08:52,722 --> 00:08:54,854
someone more culturally appropriate
159
00:08:54,879 --> 00:08:56,468
- as a partner.
- Wait, what?
160
00:08:56,492 --> 00:08:59,122
- Why?
- Lucca was in the meeting with the plaintiff,
161
00:08:59,202 --> 00:09:01,912
and had it been handled
more sensitively...
162
00:09:01,937 --> 00:09:03,417
Oh, my God, seriously?
163
00:09:03,442 --> 00:09:04,592
- Wait, wait, wait, wait.
- Yes.
164
00:09:04,616 --> 00:09:05,978
She handled it perfectly well.
165
00:09:06,002 --> 00:09:08,607
Not perfectly well enough,
because we're being sued.
166
00:09:08,632 --> 00:09:11,262
All the commotion
about the salary disparities,
167
00:09:11,342 --> 00:09:13,262
- it never died down.
- Come on.
168
00:09:13,287 --> 00:09:14,770
Making Rosalyn a partner
169
00:09:14,795 --> 00:09:16,505
would address some of those concerns.
170
00:09:16,530 --> 00:09:18,450
We appreciate everything you've said...
171
00:09:22,428 --> 00:09:25,726
It wouldn't be a proper Chicago
May without lightning storms,
172
00:09:25,751 --> 00:09:28,232
and as always, the sky
was filled with lightning
173
00:09:28,312 --> 00:09:29,732
but without accompanying thunder.
174
00:09:29,822 --> 00:09:30,942
That may seem odd...
175
00:09:31,087 --> 00:09:33,667
Marissa, have you seen this
lightning we've been having?
176
00:09:33,692 --> 00:09:35,382
It's kind of creepy.
177
00:09:35,383 --> 00:09:36,572
Yeah, exciting.
178
00:09:37,826 --> 00:09:40,073
Okay, I have to tell you
something that I know.
179
00:09:40,098 --> 00:09:41,498
But I can't tell you how I know it.
180
00:09:44,331 --> 00:09:45,972
Okay, I can tell you how I know it,
181
00:09:45,997 --> 00:09:47,881
but you can't tell
anybody how I know it.
182
00:09:49,073 --> 00:09:50,348
You have to say "okay".
183
00:09:50,373 --> 00:09:51,647
Okay.
184
00:09:52,225 --> 00:09:55,467
When you FaceTime Diane, or anybody,
185
00:09:55,492 --> 00:09:57,872
and they don't pick up, you
can hear them for a few minutes.
186
00:09:57,896 --> 00:10:01,396
_
187
00:10:01,420 --> 00:10:04,620
_
188
00:10:04,702 --> 00:10:06,702
_
189
00:10:08,442 --> 00:10:10,284
- What?
- Yeah, it's a bug.
190
00:10:10,309 --> 00:10:11,822
I'm sure Apple will fix it soon,
191
00:10:11,847 --> 00:10:13,509
possibly even in the next few weeks,
192
00:10:13,534 --> 00:10:15,644
before anything legally
problematic happens,
193
00:10:15,669 --> 00:10:18,992
but in the meantime,
I was FaceTiming Diane,
194
00:10:19,017 --> 00:10:21,427
and I heard what was going
on in the meeting upstairs.
195
00:10:22,795 --> 00:10:23,895
Okay.
196
00:10:24,339 --> 00:10:26,089
They were talking about you.
197
00:10:26,731 --> 00:10:28,727
Oh, no. We shouldn't
be talking about this.
198
00:10:28,752 --> 00:10:30,962
- Yes, but you should know about something.
- No, no.
199
00:10:30,987 --> 00:10:32,257
No, thanks. Mm-mm.
200
00:10:33,957 --> 00:10:35,647
They're considering you for partner.
201
00:10:36,825 --> 00:10:38,972
There's an opening with Julius leaving,
202
00:10:38,997 --> 00:10:41,297
and they're thinking of
making you an equity partner.
203
00:10:43,317 --> 00:10:44,867
Okay, but I mean, we really...
204
00:10:44,892 --> 00:10:48,772
I mean, I shouldn't, you
know, know any of this.
205
00:10:48,852 --> 00:10:50,462
There's only one problem.
206
00:10:51,883 --> 00:10:53,235
But maybe I shouldn't say anything.
207
00:10:53,259 --> 00:10:54,709
Oh, come on, Marissa.
208
00:10:55,495 --> 00:10:58,217
Some of the partners think Rosalyn
209
00:10:58,242 --> 00:10:59,912
would be better for
the image of the firm.
210
00:11:01,822 --> 00:11:06,027
What does that mean? Image of the firm?
211
00:11:06,052 --> 00:11:09,542
I think they think she'd do more
for the Reddick/Boseman brand.
212
00:11:09,996 --> 00:11:11,405
Well, how am I not the brand?
213
00:11:12,788 --> 00:11:13,908
You're not...
214
00:11:14,842 --> 00:11:16,052
Black enough.
215
00:11:20,740 --> 00:11:22,012
Are you fucking kidding me?
216
00:11:22,037 --> 00:11:23,627
Look, I didn't say it. They said it.
217
00:11:23,652 --> 00:11:25,012
Or they implied it.
218
00:11:28,328 --> 00:11:30,668
Wait. Okay, so what did they say?
219
00:11:32,387 --> 00:11:33,550
Exactly.
220
00:11:37,992 --> 00:11:39,062
All rise.
221
00:11:41,366 --> 00:11:42,627
Good afternoon.
222
00:11:42,652 --> 00:11:45,307
All right, well, not exactly
223
00:11:45,332 --> 00:11:49,257
a large audience today, but
maybe people will find us.
224
00:11:49,733 --> 00:11:52,042
Uh, just so you know,
they misspelled my name
225
00:11:52,067 --> 00:11:54,115
on the old nameplate.
226
00:11:54,662 --> 00:11:56,647
Uh, I am Judge Toosi,
227
00:11:56,672 --> 00:11:59,922
not Judge Tootsie,
so don't get any ideas.
228
00:12:01,472 --> 00:12:02,802
That's good to know, Your Honor.
229
00:12:03,293 --> 00:12:05,552
And as you probably know, I'm a, uh,
230
00:12:05,855 --> 00:12:07,392
I'm a new judge around here,
231
00:12:07,417 --> 00:12:10,867
so don't let the robes fool you.
I do not ask for directions,
232
00:12:11,554 --> 00:12:12,633
but I get us there eventually.
233
00:12:12,657 --> 00:12:13,777
Well, that's
234
00:12:13,837 --> 00:12:15,877
music to my ears, Your Honor.
235
00:12:16,307 --> 00:12:18,192
- Roland Blum for the plaintiff...
- Your Honor,
236
00:12:18,217 --> 00:12:21,478
- Mr. Blum has been disbarred, and cannot...
- I'm... oh,
237
00:12:21,503 --> 00:12:24,347
I'm sorry, I'm so... Uh,
I hadn't quite finished,
238
00:12:24,372 --> 00:12:26,162
Your Honor. If I may?
239
00:12:26,501 --> 00:12:28,967
Uh, uh, yeah. Ladies, we'll get to you.
240
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,832
Uh, men like us, we...
241
00:12:32,594 --> 00:12:33,832
we go with our gut.
242
00:12:34,459 --> 00:12:35,756
My gut tells me
243
00:12:35,781 --> 00:12:38,201
not to get on a flight, I listen.
244
00:12:38,552 --> 00:12:40,262
The plane goes down,
everyone gets killed,
245
00:12:40,287 --> 00:12:42,077
that's my gut saving my ass.
246
00:12:43,263 --> 00:12:44,911
And what my gut tells me here
247
00:12:45,339 --> 00:12:48,542
is that the defense is afraid of me.
248
00:12:49,277 --> 00:12:50,812
I've gathered together
249
00:12:51,064 --> 00:12:54,635
a class of eight of their ex-clients.
250
00:12:54,660 --> 00:12:57,251
Eight. These gentlemen
here in the first row.
251
00:12:57,540 --> 00:13:00,362
Now they're suing because
they've had their futures
252
00:13:00,387 --> 00:13:02,877
stolen from them by that law firm.
253
00:13:02,902 --> 00:13:05,019
Again, Your Honor, Mr. Blum
254
00:13:05,044 --> 00:13:07,183
is disbarred. He cannot argue in court.
255
00:13:07,208 --> 00:13:08,373
That's where these ladies are wrong
256
00:13:08,397 --> 00:13:09,598
because I won't be arguing in court.
257
00:13:09,622 --> 00:13:11,992
I'll leave that to my associate,
258
00:13:12,252 --> 00:13:13,550
Maia Henson,
259
00:13:13,869 --> 00:13:16,450
who also used to work at this law firm
260
00:13:16,475 --> 00:13:20,486
until she became disgusted and
quit because of their methods.
261
00:13:20,511 --> 00:13:23,357
Your Honor, this case
is a vendetta against our firm,
262
00:13:23,382 --> 00:13:25,124
and we ask that the matter be dismissed.
263
00:13:25,149 --> 00:13:26,738
Not before you conduct
a hearing, Your Honor.
264
00:13:26,762 --> 00:13:28,052
A hearing on what?
265
00:13:28,077 --> 00:13:29,747
We have a tape.
266
00:13:29,892 --> 00:13:32,684
A tape? Uh, like a,
like a tape you'd like to play?
267
00:13:32,709 --> 00:13:33,957
Like, a cassette tape?
268
00:13:33,982 --> 00:13:36,352
All right, do we have
a tape player? Bailiff?
269
00:13:36,377 --> 00:13:37,668
Expenses are expenses.
270
00:13:37,692 --> 00:13:40,130
Between expenses and
your percentage, you come away
271
00:13:40,155 --> 00:13:42,692
with more than I do. I'm
living on the streets.
272
00:13:42,847 --> 00:13:44,967
Look, why don't we do this?
273
00:13:45,140 --> 00:13:47,390
We got some contacts at
local Housing Services.
274
00:13:49,157 --> 00:13:52,847
Reddick/Boseman took 40% of
the award from Chicago PD.
275
00:13:53,090 --> 00:13:54,519
They then added frills on top,
276
00:13:54,544 --> 00:13:56,895
amounting to another 20% of that award.
277
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:58,024
We contest that.
278
00:13:58,049 --> 00:13:59,929
Yes, and that's why there
needs to be a hearing.
279
00:14:09,437 --> 00:14:12,392
So what is this? Retribution?
280
00:14:12,472 --> 00:14:14,772
No, it's lawyering.
281
00:14:14,852 --> 00:14:17,392
With Blum? Are you serious?
282
00:14:18,426 --> 00:14:20,692
No one else would hire me, Diane.
283
00:14:21,014 --> 00:14:22,083
He made me a partner,
284
00:14:22,108 --> 00:14:24,123
and I'm building his law firm
from the ground up.
285
00:14:24,715 --> 00:14:26,099
Then why come after us?
286
00:14:27,572 --> 00:14:28,942
Because you've done wrong.
287
00:14:29,712 --> 00:14:31,472
I mean, look at these cases.
288
00:14:31,662 --> 00:14:34,702
In all eight, you made more
money than your clients.
289
00:14:34,792 --> 00:14:36,826
In all eight, you had
a conflict of interest,
290
00:14:36,851 --> 00:14:38,293
and yet all the while, you were still
291
00:14:38,317 --> 00:14:39,907
patting yourselves on the back,
292
00:14:39,932 --> 00:14:41,799
thinking you were
fighting the good fight.
293
00:14:43,301 --> 00:14:45,461
And Blum is a friend
of the underprivileged?
294
00:14:46,476 --> 00:14:48,277
No, he's doing this to destroy you.
295
00:14:49,838 --> 00:14:52,356
I'm doing this to reclaim
money for your ex-clients.
296
00:14:55,062 --> 00:14:58,022
I see you're still using
the portfolio I gave you.
297
00:14:58,958 --> 00:15:00,474
It still serves its purpose.
298
00:15:13,412 --> 00:15:14,492
Aw.
299
00:15:14,894 --> 00:15:15,914
Mm.
300
00:15:18,688 --> 00:15:19,748
Mm.
301
00:15:25,712 --> 00:15:27,512
Kurt!
302
00:15:27,592 --> 00:15:28,850
Oh, sorry.
303
00:15:28,875 --> 00:15:30,698
I-I didn't know you
were coming home early.
304
00:15:30,722 --> 00:15:33,102
Oh, no, don't be
embarrassed, Kurt. It's sweet.
305
00:15:33,127 --> 00:15:34,837
It's just an assignment.
306
00:15:35,401 --> 00:15:36,531
What...
307
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:38,102
What... No!
308
00:15:39,346 --> 00:15:42,837
On behalf of the entire senior
staff around you, Mr. President,
309
00:15:42,862 --> 00:15:44,837
we thank you for the opportunity
310
00:15:44,862 --> 00:15:47,227
and the blessing that you've
given us to serve your agenda
311
00:15:47,252 --> 00:15:49,072
- and the American people.
- Oh, my God.
312
00:15:49,097 --> 00:15:50,962
It's just something I need to do.
313
00:15:51,041 --> 00:15:53,887
I thought this was for me.
It's for Trump?
314
00:15:53,912 --> 00:15:56,348
I'm supposed to introduce him
at the V.A. speech in Wisconsin.
315
00:15:56,372 --> 00:16:00,372
"The last two years have
brought me a new optimism"?
316
00:16:05,297 --> 00:16:06,507
Where you going?
317
00:16:06,532 --> 00:16:07,741
Downstairs.
318
00:16:07,766 --> 00:16:10,029
There's too much of
a dent in that closet.
319
00:16:14,432 --> 00:16:17,237
I'd like to see if
there's a dollar amount
320
00:16:17,262 --> 00:16:19,272
that would help Perry Cardwell
321
00:16:19,297 --> 00:16:21,787
and provide adequate compensation
322
00:16:21,812 --> 00:16:23,235
to Maia and yourself.
323
00:16:24,824 --> 00:16:26,862
Well, thanks to your efforts,
324
00:16:28,181 --> 00:16:31,463
I'm no longer permitted
to be compensated
325
00:16:31,962 --> 00:16:33,427
- for the work I do.
- Mm.
326
00:16:33,876 --> 00:16:36,372
There's a way to structure
your end as a consulting fee,
327
00:16:36,452 --> 00:16:39,563
sidesteps the issue
of disbarment entirely.
328
00:16:40,122 --> 00:16:41,812
You know, sometimes
329
00:16:42,408 --> 00:16:44,938
you front the rectitude of a priest,
330
00:16:45,922 --> 00:16:48,092
other times that of a pimp.
331
00:16:48,172 --> 00:16:49,762
It's whatever works, right?
332
00:16:49,842 --> 00:16:51,672
- Now what do you want?
- What do I want?
333
00:16:56,300 --> 00:16:57,517
I want
334
00:16:58,472 --> 00:17:00,729
a phalanx of moving men
335
00:17:01,674 --> 00:17:05,192
carrying files out that door.
336
00:17:05,505 --> 00:17:08,362
I want desks and chairs sold off
337
00:17:08,387 --> 00:17:09,977
at a bankruptcy auction.
338
00:17:10,612 --> 00:17:13,862
I want associates and
paralegals and secretaries
339
00:17:13,887 --> 00:17:15,887
sending out their résumés,
340
00:17:16,097 --> 00:17:18,807
while partners sell their condos
341
00:17:18,832 --> 00:17:21,622
because they can't get the stink
342
00:17:21,702 --> 00:17:24,122
of Reddick/Boseman off themselves.
343
00:17:25,797 --> 00:17:30,119
And how exactly is trying
to destroy our firm help you?
344
00:17:31,195 --> 00:17:33,032
You took away my livelihood...
345
00:17:35,832 --> 00:17:37,048
my trade.
346
00:17:38,806 --> 00:17:40,897
You made it so I was, uh...
347
00:17:43,232 --> 00:17:44,302
nothing.
348
00:17:45,519 --> 00:17:46,698
If nothing else,
349
00:17:47,312 --> 00:17:50,552
destroying this firm will
let me unclench my teeth
350
00:17:51,732 --> 00:17:53,222
in the middle of the night.
351
00:17:54,705 --> 00:17:56,362
There is no dollar amount
352
00:17:56,779 --> 00:17:59,529
that'd provide adequate compensation.
353
00:18:03,872 --> 00:18:05,542
I want you gone.
354
00:18:26,062 --> 00:18:29,180
Several sightings of this
rare and potentially dangerous
355
00:18:29,205 --> 00:18:31,585
electrical phenomenon
known as "ball lightning"
356
00:18:31,747 --> 00:18:33,917
were reported in the
Chicago area yesterday.
357
00:18:34,476 --> 00:18:37,843
These balls started fires in
three Chicago area communities:
358
00:18:38,063 --> 00:18:40,233
Naperville, Wheaton, and also...
359
00:18:40,258 --> 00:18:41,848
Uh, what are you watching?
360
00:18:41,873 --> 00:18:43,163
Lightning balls.
361
00:18:43,188 --> 00:18:45,478
C-Can I talk to you for a second, Jay?
362
00:18:45,503 --> 00:18:47,356
Uh, lightning what?
363
00:18:47,724 --> 00:18:48,838
Balls.
364
00:18:48,863 --> 00:18:51,623
Balls of lightning.
They're outside of Chicago.
365
00:18:51,962 --> 00:18:54,442
I don't understand. Is
this a-a made-up thing?
366
00:18:54,467 --> 00:18:56,177
No, the severe weather
we've been having.
367
00:18:56,722 --> 00:18:58,020
- Look.
- If you spot a ball of lightning
368
00:18:58,044 --> 00:19:01,346
coming your way, move out
of its path immediately.
369
00:19:01,371 --> 00:19:03,841
Okay, so one more thing to deal with.
370
00:19:04,408 --> 00:19:06,868
Do you have a minute?
371
00:19:12,322 --> 00:19:13,816
What do people think of me here?
372
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,760
What do they think of you?
373
00:19:21,130 --> 00:19:23,050
- I'm up for partner...
- Mm.
374
00:19:23,075 --> 00:19:25,495
... but apparently I may not get it
375
00:19:25,608 --> 00:19:30,248
because they think
I'm not "black enough".
376
00:19:31,388 --> 00:19:33,419
- Who's saying that?
- The partners.
377
00:19:33,444 --> 00:19:34,755
Have you heard anything?
378
00:19:35,877 --> 00:19:37,547
Not "black enough" as compared to who?
379
00:19:41,737 --> 00:19:42,737
Rosalyn.
380
00:19:42,762 --> 00:19:46,652
Apparently she's pro-black
in a way that I'm not.
381
00:19:48,074 --> 00:19:50,274
Uh... Huh.
382
00:19:54,935 --> 00:19:56,251
Everyone likes you,
383
00:19:57,391 --> 00:20:00,511
just a lot of the associates
think you never hang out.
384
00:20:00,992 --> 00:20:03,156
So it's high school?
385
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,628
I don't care about being popular.
386
00:20:06,653 --> 00:20:08,653
Who has time to hang out?
387
00:20:08,678 --> 00:20:11,218
We're lawyers. I have
a ten-month-old baby.
388
00:20:11,243 --> 00:20:13,120
They thought that before you had a baby.
389
00:20:13,837 --> 00:20:15,877
Okay, so I'm a traitor to the race
390
00:20:15,902 --> 00:20:17,652
because I don't get drinks after work?
391
00:20:17,677 --> 00:20:19,267
No, no, you get drinks.
392
00:20:19,294 --> 00:20:23,544
You just get them with
Marissa and Maia... and Colin.
393
00:20:26,212 --> 00:20:28,067
I wouldn't have come to
this firm if I weren't black.
394
00:20:28,091 --> 00:20:31,192
Mm, you're hovering dangerously
close to "my best friend is black".
395
00:20:33,441 --> 00:20:36,661
Okay. You can go now.
396
00:20:36,697 --> 00:20:37,987
You asked my opinion.
397
00:20:38,012 --> 00:20:39,882
Yeah, well, you know
what, I shouldn't have
398
00:20:40,350 --> 00:20:41,760
because it doesn't matter.
399
00:20:42,357 --> 00:20:45,322
You know, I do not have
to prove myself to anyone
400
00:20:45,412 --> 00:20:47,923
or perform what they think
black should look like.
401
00:20:48,701 --> 00:20:50,095
This is 2019.
402
00:20:51,563 --> 00:20:53,163
I'm not playing this
stupid fucking game.
403
00:20:54,401 --> 00:20:57,530
Then why did you choose
Reddick/Boseman to represent you?
404
00:20:57,555 --> 00:20:59,600
They came to see me after my arrest.
405
00:21:00,172 --> 00:21:03,107
They said they was the best
at taking it to the police.
406
00:21:03,132 --> 00:21:04,608
I really thought they
was gonna look after me.
407
00:21:04,632 --> 00:21:05,678
And what do you think now?
408
00:21:05,703 --> 00:21:08,006
I think they looked at
me and saw dollar signs.
409
00:21:08,432 --> 00:21:10,322
They charged me for everything.
410
00:21:10,616 --> 00:21:13,437
$27,000 for trial transcripts.
411
00:21:14,079 --> 00:21:15,983
$23,000 for dinners.
412
00:21:16,008 --> 00:21:18,368
A car service for
associates working late.
413
00:21:19,123 --> 00:21:20,543
Seriously?
414
00:21:21,492 --> 00:21:23,322
Is this your signature right here?
415
00:21:23,347 --> 00:21:25,648
- I guess.
- And, uh, this amount,
416
00:21:25,673 --> 00:21:27,783
$180,000,
417
00:21:27,808 --> 00:21:30,502
isn't that to cover the
cost of an expert witness?
418
00:21:30,527 --> 00:21:31,817
Objection, Your Honor.
419
00:21:31,842 --> 00:21:33,588
The defense is asking Mr. Cardwell
420
00:21:33,613 --> 00:21:35,547
a matter covered by
attorney-client privilege.
421
00:21:35,572 --> 00:21:37,322
- Are you kidding?
- No, I'm not.
422
00:21:37,609 --> 00:21:39,859
Your Honor, this is a catch-22.
423
00:21:40,048 --> 00:21:43,700
They accuse us of overcharging,
but we can't defend ourselves
424
00:21:43,725 --> 00:21:45,645
because the overcharges
are covered by...
425
00:21:45,670 --> 00:21:47,130
Exactly, so pay up.
426
00:21:47,155 --> 00:21:49,577
Okay, wait a minute. Okay, okay.
427
00:21:49,602 --> 00:21:53,737
Uh, I will hear arguments
on the 22nd catch,
428
00:21:53,958 --> 00:21:57,168
but first... a recess?
429
00:21:57,917 --> 00:21:59,315
Uh, Your Honor,
430
00:21:59,340 --> 00:22:01,721
the defense requests
a sidebar in chambers.
431
00:22:02,353 --> 00:22:03,642
Okay.
432
00:22:05,908 --> 00:22:07,658
In your chamber.
433
00:22:07,683 --> 00:22:09,393
- Oh, great.
- Yeah.
434
00:22:09,418 --> 00:22:10,936
I wouldn't mind getting
out of this oven.
435
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:12,380
I'm burning up.
436
00:22:14,581 --> 00:22:15,932
Uh, Your Honor,
437
00:22:16,534 --> 00:22:20,369
may I point out that Mr. Blum
should not even be in here?
438
00:22:20,394 --> 00:22:21,433
Oh, wow.
439
00:22:21,739 --> 00:22:23,399
Look at these.
440
00:22:23,424 --> 00:22:25,054
Oh, it's taking me back to my childhood.
441
00:22:25,687 --> 00:22:26,777
I loved model trains.
442
00:22:26,802 --> 00:22:27,947
- O gauge?
- Of course.
443
00:22:27,972 --> 00:22:30,017
Your Honor, the expense in question
444
00:22:30,042 --> 00:22:31,800
is related to narcotics charges
445
00:22:31,825 --> 00:22:34,117
against Mr. Cardwell
that Reddick/Boseman
446
00:22:34,142 --> 00:22:35,330
managed to have dismissed.
447
00:22:35,355 --> 00:22:38,590
And anything related to those
narcotics charges is protected
448
00:22:38,615 --> 00:22:40,575
- by attorney-client privilege.
- Isn't she sweet?
449
00:22:40,929 --> 00:22:42,019
- First case.
- Really?
450
00:22:42,044 --> 00:22:44,686
Your Honor, the
privilege Ms. Rindell refers to
451
00:22:44,711 --> 00:22:47,428
is effectively waived
when Perry sued our firm.
452
00:22:47,453 --> 00:22:48,993
It is not waived.
453
00:22:49,018 --> 00:22:52,007
And if you admit this
protected material, Your Honor,
454
00:22:52,272 --> 00:22:54,695
you'll be putting yourself
in the same position as Robert Mueller
455
00:22:54,719 --> 00:22:55,719
in terms of overreach.
456
00:22:55,744 --> 00:22:57,665
- Oh, oh, what?
- This has nothing to do with
457
00:22:57,689 --> 00:22:59,757
- Robert Mueller...
- Are you trying to intimidate the judge?
458
00:22:59,781 --> 00:23:01,795
Absolutely not. No,
I'm just pointing out
459
00:23:01,820 --> 00:23:03,263
the similarity to Mueller, that's all.
460
00:23:03,287 --> 00:23:05,158
Okay, no to the Mueller thing,
461
00:23:05,183 --> 00:23:08,299
and whatever you want
to bring in, you can't.
462
00:23:09,182 --> 00:23:10,472
So what do we think?
463
00:23:10,497 --> 00:23:11,917
I think the judge is stupid.
464
00:23:11,941 --> 00:23:14,485
And I think we have a more
difficult case to make.
465
00:23:14,510 --> 00:23:15,850
I think that's right.
466
00:23:16,392 --> 00:23:17,932
The woman over there.
467
00:23:17,957 --> 00:23:19,228
The one in the brown leather coat.
468
00:23:19,252 --> 00:23:21,032
She is threatening Diane and Liz?
469
00:23:21,057 --> 00:23:23,067
Somehow I don't think I'm
getting the whole story.
470
00:23:23,386 --> 00:23:24,846
What do you want to do?
471
00:23:24,871 --> 00:23:26,040
Wait till her friend leaves,
472
00:23:26,065 --> 00:23:27,195
then talk to her.
473
00:23:27,478 --> 00:23:29,582
Good thing I have
my intimidating jacket on.
474
00:23:31,492 --> 00:23:32,640
So...
475
00:23:33,332 --> 00:23:35,742
- we haven't really talked for a while.
- Yeah.
476
00:23:36,066 --> 00:23:38,765
Things at work have been
a little weird. Divided.
477
00:23:38,790 --> 00:23:40,250
Yeah, I know.
478
00:23:40,602 --> 00:23:42,379
And part of it is people
aren't willing to mix.
479
00:23:42,403 --> 00:23:45,027
Exactly. I go off with
my friends after work
480
00:23:45,052 --> 00:23:46,530
to get a drink, and the black associates
481
00:23:46,554 --> 00:23:47,764
go off with their friends.
482
00:23:48,732 --> 00:23:50,396
What if we set out to solve that?
483
00:23:51,185 --> 00:23:54,852
Have a party? Or crash
each other's gatherings?
484
00:23:55,330 --> 00:23:57,670
Both. Wait.
485
00:24:06,317 --> 00:24:07,337
Hi.
486
00:24:08,191 --> 00:24:09,271
Hi.
487
00:24:09,902 --> 00:24:12,002
We work with Diane
Lockhart and Liz Reddick.
488
00:24:12,027 --> 00:24:14,237
They want us to tell you to back off.
489
00:24:14,572 --> 00:24:15,701
Back off what?
490
00:24:15,726 --> 00:24:17,919
Threats. He's the tough one.
491
00:24:17,944 --> 00:24:19,694
I'm just here to see how it's done.
492
00:24:19,719 --> 00:24:21,158
Well, there must be some confusion.
493
00:24:21,183 --> 00:24:22,557
I have worked with Liz and Diane,
494
00:24:22,582 --> 00:24:25,582
but that court case
was over a month ago.
495
00:24:25,962 --> 00:24:27,732
And I've never threatened
anyone in my life.
496
00:24:27,757 --> 00:24:30,090
Then we have no need to
expose your financial issues
497
00:24:30,115 --> 00:24:31,415
with your polling firm.
498
00:24:32,460 --> 00:24:33,983
What financial issues?
499
00:24:34,008 --> 00:24:37,508
You overcharged on the DL
Michaels focus group by 30%.
500
00:24:37,924 --> 00:24:39,134
And how do we know that?
501
00:24:39,159 --> 00:24:40,548
My name is Marissa Gold.
502
00:24:40,573 --> 00:24:42,581
You've done polling for my father.
503
00:24:45,307 --> 00:24:46,387
Okay.
504
00:24:46,818 --> 00:24:50,908
You can tell Liz and Diane
that I received their message.
505
00:24:51,277 --> 00:24:54,090
And that I was willing to let
our little misunderstanding drop,
506
00:24:54,115 --> 00:24:56,383
but they've clearly shown
507
00:24:56,408 --> 00:24:58,058
that they're not willing to let it drop.
508
00:24:59,125 --> 00:25:02,986
So... tell them I'll be seeing them.
509
00:25:07,649 --> 00:25:09,609
That didn't go the way I expected.
510
00:25:09,879 --> 00:25:12,459
There are many
theories for ball lightning.
511
00:25:12,484 --> 00:25:16,530
Many believe that it's a condensed
form of highly excited atoms.
512
00:25:16,888 --> 00:25:18,061
But there are others who believe
513
00:25:18,085 --> 00:25:20,029
it's an extreme chemical reaction
514
00:25:20,054 --> 00:25:21,384
to pollutants in the air
515
00:25:21,787 --> 00:25:23,849
being trapped by greenhouse gases.
516
00:25:23,874 --> 00:25:26,409
So is this related to climate change?
517
00:25:26,434 --> 00:25:28,288
- Well, I've asked questions...
- Kurt?
518
00:25:28,312 --> 00:25:30,870
It's the middle of the night.
What are you doing?
519
00:25:30,895 --> 00:25:33,484
There's a fire on the West Side.
From lightning.
520
00:25:33,509 --> 00:25:35,062
Oh, my God.
521
00:25:35,087 --> 00:25:37,797
This is about your speech.
522
00:25:38,152 --> 00:25:39,872
I'm almost done.
523
00:25:42,176 --> 00:25:44,839
No, you're not. You
only have two sentences.
524
00:25:45,478 --> 00:25:47,648
They thought I wasn't
honoring the occasion.
525
00:25:48,048 --> 00:25:51,258
Oh. Meaning they thought
you weren't fawning enough?
526
00:25:51,325 --> 00:25:53,155
I'm fine. Just go back to bed.
527
00:25:53,180 --> 00:25:55,340
Wait. Give me that.
528
00:25:55,365 --> 00:25:57,075
No. You hate him.
529
00:25:57,175 --> 00:25:59,305
Yes, but I love you.
530
00:25:59,722 --> 00:26:01,647
And you don't have the fawning gene.
531
00:26:03,310 --> 00:26:06,690
Um...
532
00:26:06,715 --> 00:26:08,475
Just, just write this.
533
00:26:09,756 --> 00:26:14,516
Um... "Not since Abraham
Lincoln has our great country
534
00:26:14,541 --> 00:26:15,830
been blessed by a leader
535
00:26:15,855 --> 00:26:18,916
of such wisdom and courage". Hmm?
536
00:26:20,044 --> 00:26:21,649
Ah...
537
00:26:21,978 --> 00:26:23,458
Oh, my God.
538
00:26:23,483 --> 00:26:24,812
I'm going to hell.
539
00:26:25,987 --> 00:26:28,559
Uh, "Some say that
President Trump is simple.
540
00:26:30,057 --> 00:26:32,128
But there is strength in simplicity".
541
00:26:32,153 --> 00:26:33,536
Mm.
542
00:26:33,561 --> 00:26:35,987
"Complexity has only led us to
543
00:26:36,793 --> 00:26:38,411
joblessness...
544
00:26:38,436 --> 00:26:39,856
and war".
545
00:26:41,262 --> 00:26:44,500
Uh, "When I think of the...
immortal words
546
00:26:44,525 --> 00:26:46,195
of Jesus Christ... "
547
00:26:46,627 --> 00:26:48,207
- Too much?
- Mm-hmm.
548
00:26:48,232 --> 00:26:50,442
Yeah.
549
00:26:50,467 --> 00:26:53,621
"When I think of the immortal
words of Margaret Thatcher... "
550
00:26:54,410 --> 00:26:56,238
Right? We'll find a quote there.
551
00:26:56,945 --> 00:26:59,209
British, blah, blah, blah.
552
00:27:00,087 --> 00:27:04,177
"I realize how blessed this
country is to find a leader
553
00:27:05,061 --> 00:27:07,082
for this moment in time".
554
00:27:09,605 --> 00:27:10,790
Huh.
555
00:27:11,001 --> 00:27:12,204
What?
556
00:27:13,367 --> 00:27:14,837
I think this just helped me.
557
00:27:16,024 --> 00:27:17,074
With what?
558
00:27:18,201 --> 00:27:20,172
There is strength in simplicity.
559
00:27:21,138 --> 00:27:23,558
Contingency fees are the cornerstone
560
00:27:23,583 --> 00:27:25,821
of our adversarial judicial system.
561
00:27:25,846 --> 00:27:27,556
Now-now quite simply,
562
00:27:27,689 --> 00:27:29,901
Professor Harrison, could you explain
563
00:27:29,926 --> 00:27:32,192
contingency fees to His Honor?
564
00:27:32,272 --> 00:27:34,362
Kahneman and Tversky's prospect theory
565
00:27:34,387 --> 00:27:38,261
proposes a contrary analysis
to common economic wisdom:
566
00:27:38,286 --> 00:27:40,206
- loss aversion...
- No. It's wrong.
567
00:27:40,782 --> 00:27:42,323
Excuse me? It is not.
568
00:27:42,348 --> 00:27:44,478
No, that idiot judge
will just stare at him.
569
00:27:44,862 --> 00:27:47,362
There is strength in simplicity.
570
00:27:47,387 --> 00:27:48,887
Jay, I need you.
571
00:27:49,776 --> 00:27:51,057
To do what?
572
00:27:51,082 --> 00:27:52,151
Draw.
573
00:27:52,714 --> 00:27:55,594
This is Judy Giraffe.
574
00:27:55,619 --> 00:27:58,297
Judy defends order in the forest.
575
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,100
It's Judy's job to look after
576
00:28:01,125 --> 00:28:02,547
Paulie Possum,
577
00:28:02,572 --> 00:28:05,756
after he was attacked by Benny Bobcat.
578
00:28:05,781 --> 00:28:07,071
But Benny worries
579
00:28:07,537 --> 00:28:09,747
if Judy protects all the animals
580
00:28:09,772 --> 00:28:12,772
in the wild, he won't be able to have
581
00:28:12,797 --> 00:28:13,838
- his way with them...
- Your Honor,
582
00:28:13,862 --> 00:28:15,029
the plaintiff would like to,
583
00:28:15,054 --> 00:28:17,571
once again, register its
objection to these cartoons...
584
00:28:17,595 --> 00:28:20,805
So, you're saying that
Benny Bobcat is lying.
585
00:28:20,830 --> 00:28:23,624
Contingency fees are
generally considered equitable
586
00:28:23,649 --> 00:28:26,377
under U.S. law because
of the inflated cost of...
587
00:28:26,402 --> 00:28:29,325
Wait. Wait, this will never
get through to the judge.
588
00:28:29,350 --> 00:28:31,370
I can't change the facts
of my testimony.
589
00:28:31,395 --> 00:28:33,019
We're not asking you
to change the facts,
590
00:28:33,044 --> 00:28:34,882
just... the delivery.
591
00:28:34,962 --> 00:28:37,487
I did background on the judge.
592
00:28:37,512 --> 00:28:39,632
He has an ASMR fixation.
593
00:28:39,633 --> 00:28:40,922
You're kidding.
594
00:28:41,012 --> 00:28:42,132
What's that?
595
00:28:45,917 --> 00:28:47,065
I need to...
596
00:28:47,588 --> 00:28:50,198
touch this microphone.
597
00:28:55,289 --> 00:28:56,299
What the hell?
598
00:28:56,324 --> 00:28:59,654
It-It's like a brain
orgasm for some people.
599
00:28:59,813 --> 00:29:01,233
It makes them more receptive.
600
00:29:01,258 --> 00:29:03,730
And one of those people is the judge.
601
00:29:11,996 --> 00:29:13,376
Your Honor...
602
00:29:15,820 --> 00:29:19,240
I have to... lean into the microphone
603
00:29:19,712 --> 00:29:22,387
to help you understand
about contingencies,
604
00:29:23,052 --> 00:29:25,910
and why Reddick/Boseman needs to charge
605
00:29:25,935 --> 00:29:27,545
as much as they do.
606
00:29:29,685 --> 00:29:30,852
Do...
607
00:29:30,932 --> 00:29:32,392
do...
608
00:29:32,393 --> 00:29:33,514
What the fuck?
609
00:29:33,539 --> 00:29:35,648
Your Honor, can the, uh,
610
00:29:35,673 --> 00:29:37,517
expert witness speak up, please?
611
00:29:37,542 --> 00:29:38,752
Overruled. Sit down.
612
00:29:38,777 --> 00:29:39,882
Please proceed.
613
00:29:40,126 --> 00:29:43,425
Here's the thing about
contingency charges:
614
00:29:43,450 --> 00:29:47,370
they are necessary
for the poorer clients
615
00:29:47,742 --> 00:29:50,332
To achieve justice.
616
00:29:50,412 --> 00:29:52,332
Justice.
617
00:30:03,092 --> 00:30:05,172
They found a way to get to the judge.
618
00:30:05,197 --> 00:30:06,827
We need to do the same.
619
00:30:07,053 --> 00:30:09,546
Okay, okay. We go back
to the old playbooks.
620
00:30:09,579 --> 00:30:10,608
And what's that?
621
00:30:10,633 --> 00:30:12,112
Bush v. Gore, 2000.
622
00:30:12,862 --> 00:30:13,922
I was 12.
623
00:30:14,703 --> 00:30:16,493
Don't worry. Let me take care of it.
624
00:30:23,579 --> 00:30:25,257
Trust me, we have never had a president
625
00:30:25,282 --> 00:30:26,532
who wasn't a sociopath.
626
00:30:26,557 --> 00:30:28,295
- Even Obama?
- Even him.
627
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,166
The level of self-centeredness it takes
628
00:30:30,191 --> 00:30:32,332
to think that you and only
you can change the world...
629
00:30:32,357 --> 00:30:33,647
Come on now.
630
00:30:35,462 --> 00:30:38,882
But I think you mean
a narcissist, not a sociopath.
631
00:30:38,907 --> 00:30:40,333
- Narcissist, that's better, that's better.
- Yes, that's right.
632
00:30:40,357 --> 00:30:41,607
You got it.
633
00:30:41,632 --> 00:30:44,512
Hi. You mind if I join you?
634
00:30:45,428 --> 00:30:46,520
Sure.
635
00:30:46,545 --> 00:30:47,777
You don't usually come out.
636
00:30:47,802 --> 00:30:49,536
No. But you know, I had to, uh,
637
00:30:49,561 --> 00:30:51,852
escape the 60-page prenup
sitting on my desk.
638
00:30:53,459 --> 00:30:54,560
What were you talking about?
639
00:30:54,584 --> 00:30:57,522
Uh, whether all presidents
are sociopaths or just some.
640
00:30:57,547 --> 00:31:00,113
Obama thought that he
deserved to be president
641
00:31:00,138 --> 00:31:01,365
as a first-term senator.
642
00:31:01,390 --> 00:31:02,707
How is that not narcissism?
643
00:31:02,732 --> 00:31:03,958
It's called being a visionary.
644
00:31:03,982 --> 00:31:07,184
- Hello, he was right.
- Trump is the most extreme of the extreme,
645
00:31:07,209 --> 00:31:09,177
but the presidency
requires an individual
646
00:31:09,202 --> 00:31:10,586
who doesn't experience emotion
647
00:31:10,611 --> 00:31:12,106
- the way us common folk do.
- Okay.
648
00:31:12,131 --> 00:31:14,677
Well, maybe Obama does
experience emotion differently,
649
00:31:14,702 --> 00:31:15,725
but you'd have to,
650
00:31:15,750 --> 00:31:17,955
given all the shit he got
while in office.
651
00:31:17,980 --> 00:31:19,288
I mean, I bet he wished for just
652
00:31:19,313 --> 00:31:22,132
one day where he didn't have
to be "the black president".
653
00:31:24,189 --> 00:31:25,352
I don't think I agree with that.
654
00:31:25,376 --> 00:31:27,361
I suppose I don't think of it that way.
655
00:31:27,650 --> 00:31:29,657
I'm black and I never
want to be anything else.
656
00:31:29,682 --> 00:31:31,028
I mean, the good outweighs the bad.
657
00:31:31,052 --> 00:31:32,487
Oh, yeah, sure. No.
658
00:31:32,512 --> 00:31:34,822
I mean, I'm not saying that
he would ever want to...
659
00:31:35,472 --> 00:31:36,806
be not black,
660
00:31:36,831 --> 00:31:38,942
just... free from
661
00:31:39,527 --> 00:31:41,173
the pressure... of it.
662
00:31:41,923 --> 00:31:42,957
Maybe.
663
00:31:43,438 --> 00:31:44,462
Sometimes.
664
00:31:45,165 --> 00:31:46,179
Hey, Lucca.
665
00:31:46,204 --> 00:31:47,507
Mind if I join you?
666
00:31:48,008 --> 00:31:49,782
I decided we all need to mix more.
667
00:31:52,112 --> 00:31:53,645
So what are we talking about?
668
00:31:54,386 --> 00:31:55,559
What's going on?
669
00:31:55,584 --> 00:31:57,292
Revenge of the Empire.
670
00:31:57,372 --> 00:31:58,832
Who's the Empire?
671
00:31:58,833 --> 00:32:00,230
We are.
672
00:32:00,255 --> 00:32:02,885
Listen, at least
you're not in jury duty.
673
00:32:05,324 --> 00:32:07,632
How many of you are from out of town?
674
00:32:08,346 --> 00:32:11,357
Whoa! What was it, this
or a matinee of Cats?
675
00:32:12,713 --> 00:32:14,697
Calm down, sir. Calm down.
676
00:32:14,722 --> 00:32:15,972
Okay, so what is this?
677
00:32:16,464 --> 00:32:18,602
The Brooks Brothers riot.
678
00:32:18,682 --> 00:32:19,792
The what?
679
00:32:20,393 --> 00:32:21,502
Oh, my God.
680
00:32:22,192 --> 00:32:25,612
Young people today and your
lack of historical appreciation.
681
00:32:25,692 --> 00:32:29,210
Roger Stone and I set up
the Brooks Brothers riot
682
00:32:29,235 --> 00:32:31,288
in Miami-Dade, back in 2000.
683
00:32:31,922 --> 00:32:35,305
Now, without our boys raising
hell to stop the recount,
684
00:32:35,992 --> 00:32:38,952
this country would've
suffered through Al Gore.
685
00:32:39,042 --> 00:32:41,042
Oh, I can't hear you!
Let me hear that again.
686
00:32:42,422 --> 00:32:43,882
Are you kidding?
687
00:32:43,962 --> 00:32:45,777
Hey. It worked in 2000.
688
00:32:45,778 --> 00:32:47,780
Good. Now, when I want to hear
689
00:32:47,805 --> 00:32:50,003
mumbling, let me hear a little
690
00:32:50,028 --> 00:32:51,108
wallah-wallah-wallah-wallah
wallah-wallah-wallah-wallah
691
00:32:51,132 --> 00:32:52,292
wallah-wallah-wallah-wallah.
692
00:32:54,845 --> 00:32:55,949
Good.
693
00:32:56,450 --> 00:32:58,036
You worked for
Reddick/Boseman, did you not?
694
00:32:58,060 --> 00:32:59,077
I did.
695
00:32:59,102 --> 00:33:01,177
I served as cocounsel on, uh...
696
00:33:01,357 --> 00:33:04,215
a number of matters. I
also spent a considerable
697
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,041
amount of time working in their offices.
698
00:33:07,066 --> 00:33:08,252
And what was your impression?
699
00:33:08,276 --> 00:33:09,785
Objection. Irrelevant.
700
00:33:12,171 --> 00:33:13,381
Uh...
701
00:33:13,406 --> 00:33:16,366
I'm going to overrule that objection.
702
00:33:17,734 --> 00:33:18,864
On what grounds?
703
00:33:18,889 --> 00:33:21,519
Uh... I... Because I have ruled.
704
00:33:21,787 --> 00:33:23,417
Look,
705
00:33:23,442 --> 00:33:26,492
I don't like to sit in
judgment, but I feel,
706
00:33:26,706 --> 00:33:29,546
that as lawyers, you know,
we have a responsibility
707
00:33:29,571 --> 00:33:33,281
to leave this world
just a little bit better.
708
00:33:33,614 --> 00:33:36,137
My grandfather came here from Belarus.
709
00:33:36,162 --> 00:33:37,662
Couldn't read or write.
710
00:33:37,687 --> 00:33:40,017

that is a car commercial.

00:33:56,541 --> 00:33:58,048
That's okay, that's okay.
717
00:33:58,073 --> 00:34:00,156

Okay, let's stop with the stunts,
and win on the merits.
723
00:34:18,006 --> 00:34:19,386
Just one more thing.
724
00:34:19,466 --> 00:34:20,526
What?
725
00:34:25,686 --> 00:34:28,396
I can always sense
when you need a favor.
726
00:34:29,173 --> 00:34:30,436
Well, this is an easy one.
727
00:34:31,026 --> 00:34:34,396
You know this new judge, uh, Dash Toosi?
728
00:34:35,132 --> 00:34:36,791
Well, I have a matter before him.
729
00:34:36,816 --> 00:34:40,309
He's no doubt heard
only the worst about me.
730
00:34:41,286 --> 00:34:43,576
It'd be great if I could, uh,
731
00:34:43,711 --> 00:34:46,471
get him to just rule on the merits.
732
00:34:46,496 --> 00:34:47,616
The merits?
733
00:34:47,641 --> 00:34:49,027
Well, the positive merits,
734
00:34:49,052 --> 00:34:50,394
not the negative ones.
735
00:34:51,416 --> 00:34:54,126
You know, if you could talk to him, oh,
736
00:34:54,206 --> 00:34:55,426
that'd be great.
737
00:34:57,799 --> 00:34:59,119
How's your husband doing?
738
00:35:00,506 --> 00:35:01,546
Well, I mean,
739
00:35:02,308 --> 00:35:03,900
your ex-husband.
740
00:35:06,792 --> 00:35:07,824
Fine.
741
00:35:08,896 --> 00:35:10,119
Good.
742
00:35:14,017 --> 00:35:18,243
Oh, and if you could
sit behind us in court,
743
00:35:18,268 --> 00:35:19,808
that'd be great, too.
744
00:35:20,316 --> 00:35:21,446
We need a,
745
00:35:22,041 --> 00:35:23,924
a Pentangeli moment.
746
00:35:34,546 --> 00:35:36,006
Uh, four, please.
747
00:35:40,336 --> 00:35:43,466
Hello. I'm Judge Hazlewood.
748
00:35:43,556 --> 00:35:45,218
Charlotte Hazlewood.
749
00:35:45,678 --> 00:35:47,966
Oh, nice to meet you. Judge Dash Toosi.
750
00:35:48,886 --> 00:35:52,186
It's surprising how many lady
judges there are around here.
751
00:35:52,266 --> 00:35:54,316
Mm-hmm.
752
00:35:56,723 --> 00:35:58,103
So...
753
00:35:58,820 --> 00:36:00,671
Constance Green's son died
754
00:36:00,696 --> 00:36:03,461
while being transported
in a private prison van.
755
00:36:03,486 --> 00:36:06,666
She came to you, you
didn't take her case. Why?
756
00:36:06,691 --> 00:36:08,611
- Objection. Irrelevant.
- Your Honor,
757
00:36:08,636 --> 00:36:10,633
we were treated to a distinguished
758
00:36:10,658 --> 00:36:12,884
law professor lecturing us on how
759
00:36:12,909 --> 00:36:14,948
contingency fees were essential.
760
00:36:15,835 --> 00:36:17,174
- Judy Giraffe?
- Yes.
761
00:36:17,199 --> 00:36:19,449
I believe I'm entitled
to challenge that claim.
762
00:36:19,926 --> 00:36:21,046
Yep.
763
00:36:21,071 --> 00:36:22,074
What was the question?
764
00:36:22,099 --> 00:36:24,588
Why didn't you accept
the case of Constance Green's son?
765
00:36:24,613 --> 00:36:26,370
- We thought the case was weak.
- Why?
766
00:36:26,395 --> 00:36:28,241
Her son resisted arrest.
767
00:36:28,266 --> 00:36:30,326
If I may, isn't it a fact
768
00:36:30,351 --> 00:36:31,710
you advised Ms. Green
769
00:36:31,735 --> 00:36:35,301
to accept the State of Illinois's
initial offer, didn't you?
770
00:36:35,797 --> 00:36:37,115
We may well have.
771
00:36:41,096 --> 00:36:42,951
You also have a relationship
772
00:36:42,976 --> 00:36:45,846
with a litigation
investment fund, do you not?
773
00:36:45,871 --> 00:36:48,592
We do. Or at least, we did.
774
00:36:49,375 --> 00:36:50,858
Now, they evaluate
775
00:36:50,883 --> 00:36:52,731
each potential case and they decide
776
00:36:52,756 --> 00:36:54,376
whether it's likely to be profitable?
777
00:36:54,401 --> 00:36:57,027
They provide us
capital so we can function.
778
00:36:57,917 --> 00:36:59,705
Cases can go on for years, Your Honor.
779
00:36:59,730 --> 00:37:02,473
You lured Perry by
pretending to be committed
780
00:37:02,498 --> 00:37:05,441
to justice, when in actual
fact, the only thing you valued
781
00:37:05,466 --> 00:37:07,246
- was making money.
- Objection.
782
00:37:10,437 --> 00:37:13,227
Uh, I, uh...
783
00:37:14,325 --> 00:37:17,075
... uh, sustained.
784
00:37:18,277 --> 00:37:19,375
Okay.
785
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,464
- I'll move on.
- Uh, may I say one thing?
786
00:37:22,072 --> 00:37:25,242
I've had offices in storefronts
787
00:37:25,526 --> 00:37:28,076
and in the back row of bond court.
788
00:37:28,900 --> 00:37:31,286
I've met with clients
seven nights a week
789
00:37:31,498 --> 00:37:34,972
in housing projects that you wouldn't
walk into without a police escort
790
00:37:35,214 --> 00:37:36,434
and a camera crew.
791
00:37:36,996 --> 00:37:38,436
I won't be held to account
792
00:37:38,461 --> 00:37:41,548
because the firm that I
helped to build doesn't conform
793
00:37:41,573 --> 00:37:43,987
to your idea of a black law firm.
794
00:37:45,676 --> 00:37:51,136
I'm a black man, Reddick,
Boseman & Lockhart is my firm
795
00:37:51,226 --> 00:37:53,265
and I apologize for nothing.
796
00:37:59,069 --> 00:38:01,230
Now I know why you
came for drinks last night.
797
00:38:01,856 --> 00:38:02,938
Why?
798
00:38:03,278 --> 00:38:04,918
Because we're up for
the same partnership.
799
00:38:05,276 --> 00:38:06,456
Who told you?
800
00:38:06,481 --> 00:38:08,025
One of the partners.
801
00:38:09,137 --> 00:38:10,858
They're trying to pit
us against each other.
802
00:38:12,304 --> 00:38:13,382
Why?
803
00:38:13,407 --> 00:38:15,796
Because that's what people
do to the black girls.
804
00:38:17,373 --> 00:38:18,628
So what do we do?
805
00:38:18,653 --> 00:38:21,334
Well, first of all, it just doesn't
make sense that we would even...
806
00:38:21,918 --> 00:38:22,966
What was that?
807
00:38:22,991 --> 00:38:24,741
I don't know.
808
00:38:30,029 --> 00:38:32,409
I have never seen anything like that.
809
00:38:32,716 --> 00:38:34,316
Me, neither.
810
00:38:41,066 --> 00:38:45,365
It... no, maybe it's
a, uh, power plant fire?
811
00:38:48,906 --> 00:38:50,455
Do you believe in revelation?
812
00:38:51,718 --> 00:38:54,432
The Bible? No.
813
00:38:56,228 --> 00:38:58,001
Well, I think we're in the end times.
814
00:38:59,181 --> 00:39:01,956
You think this is the end times?
815
00:39:02,822 --> 00:39:05,336
I think it's the
beginning of the end times.
816
00:39:05,416 --> 00:39:06,566
Why?
817
00:39:07,744 --> 00:39:08,941
Because of that?
818
00:39:08,966 --> 00:39:10,962
No, everything.
819
00:39:10,987 --> 00:39:12,707
The signs, symbols.
820
00:39:14,426 --> 00:39:16,289
People acting like animals.
821
00:39:17,365 --> 00:39:18,969
The lying, the stealing, the killing.
822
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:22,146
We're being judged.
823
00:39:23,226 --> 00:39:25,389
It's creepy, isn't it?
824
00:39:25,414 --> 00:39:26,816
Yeah.
825
00:39:26,841 --> 00:39:29,281
They say it's a power plant
hit by a lightning ball.
826
00:39:29,306 --> 00:39:32,266
No, I think it's a conspiracy.
827
00:39:32,826 --> 00:39:34,681
The government is trying a new weapon,
828
00:39:34,706 --> 00:39:36,720
and that's what the
lightning balls are all about.
829
00:39:36,745 --> 00:39:38,431
- You said someone was out there?
- Yes.
830
00:39:38,456 --> 00:39:40,913
Someone without an appointment.
831
00:39:41,073 --> 00:39:42,303
Who?
832
00:39:42,328 --> 00:39:43,557
Diane Lockhart.
833
00:39:43,582 --> 00:39:45,256
You want me to send her away?
834
00:39:45,257 --> 00:39:46,624
What? Uh... no. No.
835
00:39:46,649 --> 00:39:48,109
Send her in, please.
836
00:39:59,976 --> 00:40:01,356
Would you like some water?
837
00:40:01,381 --> 00:40:02,711
No, no, I'm fine.
838
00:40:02,736 --> 00:40:03,901
Thank you.
839
00:40:03,926 --> 00:40:05,251
Oh, I like what you're, uh,
840
00:40:05,276 --> 00:40:07,646
- what you're wearing.
- Oh, thank you.
841
00:40:09,946 --> 00:40:11,071
Diane.
842
00:40:11,072 --> 00:40:12,196
Maia.
843
00:40:12,276 --> 00:40:14,236
Please.
844
00:40:15,016 --> 00:40:17,852
So you, you got what you wanted.
845
00:40:18,496 --> 00:40:20,000
A corner office.
846
00:40:20,025 --> 00:40:21,466
You make it sound shameful.
847
00:40:21,491 --> 00:40:22,536
No.
848
00:40:22,742 --> 00:40:26,314
Though my guess is you wouldn't
want it to happen with Blum.
849
00:40:26,339 --> 00:40:29,759
Oh, he's not bad. I know
what I'm getting with him.
850
00:40:30,336 --> 00:40:31,686
Sometimes that's better.
851
00:40:33,357 --> 00:40:36,709
Maia, I have the rare opportunity
852
00:40:37,306 --> 00:40:38,726
to put things right.
853
00:40:40,251 --> 00:40:41,798
We want you to come back.
854
00:40:44,646 --> 00:40:46,136
F...
855
00:40:47,196 --> 00:40:48,316
No.
856
00:40:48,341 --> 00:40:49,761
As a partner.
857
00:40:54,181 --> 00:40:56,836
I don't know what your
profit participation is here,
858
00:40:56,861 --> 00:40:59,266
but I know it can't match
what we're offering.
859
00:41:00,536 --> 00:41:03,236
Julius is leaving to become a judge,
860
00:41:03,261 --> 00:41:04,860
and that means there's an opening
861
00:41:04,885 --> 00:41:06,255
for an equity partner.
862
00:41:06,510 --> 00:41:09,682
We want you to fill that position.
863
00:41:09,707 --> 00:41:11,784
- For six months, then you'll force me out.
- No.
864
00:41:11,809 --> 00:41:14,141
We would agree to a five-year contract.
865
00:41:14,926 --> 00:41:17,867
In lawyer years, that's
basically an eternity.
866
00:41:22,436 --> 00:41:24,337
You're trying to buy me out of my case.
867
00:41:24,362 --> 00:41:26,955
Yes. But this isn't charity.
868
00:41:28,043 --> 00:41:30,793
This is because you impressed Boseman.
869
00:41:31,725 --> 00:41:33,389
This is for the best reason.
870
00:41:34,351 --> 00:41:35,569
I have to think about it.
871
00:41:35,594 --> 00:41:36,702
Mm-hmm.
872
00:41:42,507 --> 00:41:43,927
Is this weird,
873
00:41:43,952 --> 00:41:45,132
that, uh...
874
00:41:47,496 --> 00:41:48,686
... that we've ended up here?
875
00:41:50,756 --> 00:41:51,889
Yes.
876
00:42:00,793 --> 00:42:02,828
So you're trying to buy her off?
877
00:42:05,580 --> 00:42:06,700
Yes.
878
00:42:07,662 --> 00:42:09,170
She won't go with you.
879
00:42:10,662 --> 00:42:12,568
She will if she knows the smart move.
880
00:42:13,446 --> 00:42:14,556
Hey.
881
00:42:17,264 --> 00:42:18,889
Want to come on in?
882
00:42:20,797 --> 00:42:22,036

I never heard of lightning
balls till yesterday.
895
00:43:13,077 --> 00:43:14,890
Now they're gonna burn down Chicago.
896
00:43:14,915 --> 00:43:18,216
There is a woman out there
that wants to see you.
897
00:43:18,642 --> 00:43:21,449
She happens to be the judge
for my divorce trial.
898
00:43:23,761 --> 00:43:26,128
I didn't start seeing her
until after your trial, Liz.
899
00:43:26,153 --> 00:43:28,056
- How nice of you.
- Liz, seriously...
900
00:43:33,273 --> 00:43:35,206
I hope it's okay that I drop by.
901
00:43:35,699 --> 00:43:38,148
Yeah. Please, have a seat.
902
00:43:40,366 --> 00:43:43,281
I was impressed by
what you said in court.
903
00:43:44,976 --> 00:43:46,156
I was moved.
904
00:43:46,181 --> 00:43:48,122
That's the easy part
of battling with Blum,
905
00:43:48,147 --> 00:43:50,587
you always feel like you're on
the right side, no matter what.
906
00:43:54,971 --> 00:43:56,087
What?
907
00:43:59,751 --> 00:44:04,765
Roland asked me to approach
Judge Toosi, on his behalf.
908
00:44:06,871 --> 00:44:08,251
And I did.
909
00:44:09,382 --> 00:44:10,601
I didn't know the case.
910
00:44:11,781 --> 00:44:13,835
I didn't know it involved you.
911
00:44:16,622 --> 00:44:17,678
I'm sorry.
912
00:44:19,585 --> 00:44:22,776
You bribed my judge?
913
00:44:31,981 --> 00:44:35,061
And you're not willing to say yes
914
00:44:35,086 --> 00:44:38,126
because you think I'm recording you?
915
00:44:39,057 --> 00:44:40,902
I'm not afraid you're recording me.
916
00:44:42,926 --> 00:44:45,436
Then say you bribed Judge Toosi.
917
00:44:48,136 --> 00:44:51,425
I bribed Judge Toosi.
918
00:44:52,945 --> 00:44:54,222
What else do you need?
919
00:44:56,254 --> 00:44:57,390
Nothing.
920
00:45:05,246 --> 00:45:06,746
You want to grab dinner later?
921
00:45:06,771 --> 00:45:07,821
Ha!
922
00:45:09,506 --> 00:45:10,576
No.
923
00:45:19,931 --> 00:45:22,771
It's love for every American child
924
00:45:22,796 --> 00:45:27,216
who deserves a chance to have
all of their dreams come true.
925
00:45:29,031 --> 00:45:31,160
And I'm here tonight to send a message:
926
00:45:32,386 --> 00:45:37,566
we are fully and totally
committed to fighting
927
00:45:37,591 --> 00:45:39,511
for our agenda,
928
00:45:39,536 --> 00:45:41,961
- and we will not stop
- Oh... Kurt.
929
00:45:42,274 --> 00:45:44,566
until the job is done.
930
00:45:56,143 --> 00:45:57,503
We love our country.
931
00:45:57,996 --> 00:45:59,456
We celebrate our troops.
932
00:45:59,996 --> 00:46:02,362
- We embrace our freedom.
- USA! USA!
933
00:46:02,387 --> 00:46:04,876
We respect our flag.
934
00:46:05,197 --> 00:46:07,321
We are proud of our history.
935
00:46:07,791 --> 00:46:10,687
We cherish our Constitution,
936
00:46:10,712 --> 00:46:13,483
- including, by the way,
- Kurt, my God, I love you.
937
00:46:13,508 --> 00:46:15,556
the Second Amendment.
938
00:46:18,976 --> 00:46:22,896
We fully protect religious liberty.
939
00:46:23,257 --> 00:46:25,196

What?
968
00:48:07,367 --> 00:48:09,267
They offered the partnership to Maia?
969
00:48:12,192 --> 00:48:14,572
Yeah. That makes sense.
970
00:48:15,168 --> 00:48:16,668
Two black girls were up for a job
971
00:48:16,693 --> 00:48:18,093
and they give it to the white girl.
972
00:48:18,493 --> 00:48:20,319
You're not angry?
973
00:48:20,344 --> 00:48:23,022
No. Maia won't take it.
974
00:48:23,047 --> 00:48:24,327
What do you mean? Yes, she will.
975
00:48:24,837 --> 00:48:25,947
No.
976
00:48:27,134 --> 00:48:28,654
She's moved on.
977
00:48:31,015 --> 00:48:32,644
Then maybe they'll offer it to you.
978
00:48:34,052 --> 00:48:35,672
Maybe.
979
00:48:37,402 --> 00:48:39,012
I don't care anymore.
980
00:48:40,496 --> 00:48:42,673
You know, this whole year, I realized,
981
00:48:43,606 --> 00:48:47,535
the best thing is to not care.
982
00:48:52,007 --> 00:48:53,758
Weird times.
983
00:48:53,782 --> 00:48:54,802
Yep.
984
00:48:56,858 --> 00:48:58,104
I have some acid.
985
00:48:58,129 --> 00:48:59,479
Do you want to drop it?
986
00:49:01,617 --> 00:49:02,717
Sure.
987
00:49:12,998 --> 00:49:14,770
The end times are beautiful.
988
00:49:18,336 --> 00:49:22,690
"Some say the world will end
in fire, some say in ice".
989
00:49:23,698 --> 00:49:25,088
Any word from Maia?
990
00:49:26,903 --> 00:49:28,106
No.
991
00:49:30,463 --> 00:49:32,803
We got a fucking idiot
for a judge, Diane...
992
00:49:32,828 --> 00:49:34,114
Oh, God.
993
00:49:34,139 --> 00:49:35,579
... who might just have been bribed.
994
00:49:35,748 --> 00:49:36,893
Really?
995
00:49:36,894 --> 00:49:38,038
Really.
996
00:49:38,466 --> 00:49:40,349
The guardrails are gone, Diane.
997
00:49:42,878 --> 00:49:44,798
And I can't see the road.
998
00:49:44,878 --> 00:49:48,428
And I used to think that
something would save us.
999
00:49:48,708 --> 00:49:50,208
The law,
1000
00:49:50,312 --> 00:49:51,820
personal conscience.
1001
00:49:52,728 --> 00:49:53,768
But now?
1002
00:49:58,125 --> 00:49:59,544
I don't see anything.
1003
00:50:03,064 --> 00:50:04,148
Love.
1004
00:50:06,034 --> 00:50:07,824
No, I'm not joking.
1005
00:50:10,198 --> 00:50:11,250
I was just...
1006
00:50:14,779 --> 00:50:17,407
... watching my husband Kurt on TV,
1007
00:50:19,266 --> 00:50:20,983
and I realized I felt something
1008
00:50:21,008 --> 00:50:23,094
I haven't felt in a very long time.
1009
00:50:24,491 --> 00:50:25,585
Hope.
1010
00:50:27,275 --> 00:50:30,067
When everything slips
away, there is that.
1011
00:50:31,822 --> 00:50:32,899
Love, huh?
1012
00:50:32,924 --> 00:50:34,424
Mm-hmm. Love.
1013
00:50:37,055 --> 00:50:38,446
We can't give up on that.
1014
00:51:07,628 --> 00:51:09,838
... the destruction of five power plants
1015
00:51:09,928 --> 00:51:11,740
in the greater Chicagoland area.
1016
00:51:12,093 --> 00:51:15,024
With firefighters working
around the clock since yesterday,
1017
00:51:15,049 --> 00:51:17,095
the fires are 80% contained.
1018
00:51:17,519 --> 00:51:18,752
There is still some debate
1019
00:51:18,777 --> 00:51:21,982
about how such an extreme weather
condition got out of hand.
1020
00:51:22,529 --> 00:51:25,949
Firsthand accounts suggest that
several ball lightning strikes
1021
00:51:25,974 --> 00:51:28,358
resulted in a mile-long
path of destruction...
1022
00:51:28,448 --> 00:51:29,508
All rise.
1023
00:51:31,774 --> 00:51:35,391
Well, it looks like
we're all still alive.
1024
00:51:35,416 --> 00:51:36,828
And I'm ready to make a call.
1025
00:51:36,908 --> 00:51:38,078
A ruling.
1026
00:51:38,696 --> 00:51:42,328
Ready to rule, in fact,
1027
00:51:42,418 --> 00:51:44,088
because I...
1028
00:51:44,967 --> 00:51:46,208
am a judge.
1029
00:51:46,616 --> 00:51:48,616
I've been thinking a lot
about Mr. Perry over here,
1030
00:51:48,885 --> 00:51:50,510
what he's gone through.
1031
00:51:50,535 --> 00:51:52,865
It's a tough situation, man. Tough.
1032
00:51:53,706 --> 00:51:56,766
I get how disappointed
he is in his lawyers,
1033
00:51:56,791 --> 00:51:58,995
how hard it is to watch them
1034
00:51:59,020 --> 00:52:02,108
sitting over there in their fancy
suits while he's got nothing.
1035
00:52:02,913 --> 00:52:05,623
But then I got to admit...
1036
00:52:07,858 --> 00:52:10,148
... I've been thinking
a lot about Judy Giraffe.
1037
00:52:10,709 --> 00:52:12,286
Seems to me that this case isn't just
1038
00:52:12,311 --> 00:52:15,021
about Mr. Cardwell, it's about...
1039
00:52:16,991 --> 00:52:18,118
... bigger stuff.
1040
00:52:19,002 --> 00:52:20,843
Serious stuff.
1041
00:52:20,868 --> 00:52:23,560
A whole jungle. And if
I decide for Mr. Perry,
1042
00:52:23,585 --> 00:52:25,575
then this, this whole...
1043
00:52:27,745 --> 00:52:28,915
Ecosystem?
1044
00:52:30,553 --> 00:52:33,130
Good. Yes, this whole ecosystem
1045
00:52:33,155 --> 00:52:34,365
just kind of falls apart.
1046
00:52:34,758 --> 00:52:36,416
And I don't think we can have that.
1047
00:52:36,761 --> 00:52:38,058
So...
1048
00:52:39,964 --> 00:52:41,438
... I'm gonna give it to Judy.
1049
00:52:41,659 --> 00:52:43,044
I mean, the law firm.
1050
00:52:43,357 --> 00:52:44,648
Okay? Yeah.
1051
00:52:44,984 --> 00:52:46,145
Great. Good.
1052
00:52:55,112 --> 00:52:56,330
Congratulations.
1053
00:52:58,661 --> 00:53:01,538
You, uh, you haven't
responded to our offer.
1054
00:53:02,790 --> 00:53:04,168
You won.
1055
00:53:04,551 --> 00:53:05,844
You don't need to buy me off.
1056
00:53:06,918 --> 00:53:09,708
We weren't buying you off,
Maia. We want you back.
1057
00:53:10,507 --> 00:53:12,273
We want you home.
1058
00:53:12,981 --> 00:53:14,271
Maia,
1059
00:53:14,296 --> 00:53:15,914
there is no future with Blum.
1060
00:53:17,497 --> 00:53:18,887
He's disbarred.
1061
00:53:19,090 --> 00:53:20,248
In Illinois.
1062
00:53:20,928 --> 00:53:22,223
Not in D.C.
1063
00:53:25,923 --> 00:53:27,163
Goodbye.
1064
00:53:54,671 --> 00:53:56,428
Hit it, Fernando.
1065
00:54:16,995 --> 00:54:18,525
You are my hero.
1066
00:54:19,496 --> 00:54:21,699
If they fired me, I'd be a hero.
1067
00:54:25,868 --> 00:54:27,618
Hmm.
1068
00:54:29,653 --> 00:54:31,588
I'm happy.
1069
00:54:34,378 --> 00:54:37,428
What... Am I ridiculous?
1070
00:54:37,453 --> 00:54:38,628
You...
1071
00:54:38,653 --> 00:54:40,483
You like narrating your life.
1072
00:54:41,409 --> 00:54:43,848
You know, there are
psychological studies that say,
1073
00:54:43,873 --> 00:54:45,127
when people are happy,
1074
00:54:46,728 --> 00:54:49,608
they look desperately for
things to make them unhappy.
1075
00:54:51,188 --> 00:54:53,938
But that won't happen to us, will it?
1076
00:54:56,392 --> 00:54:58,278
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Kurt.
1077
00:54:58,869 --> 00:55:01,618
Tell me everything's gonna be all right.
1078
00:55:01,763 --> 00:55:03,328
Everything's gonna be all right.
1079
00:55:03,553 --> 00:55:05,953
No, tell... But mean it.
1080
00:55:07,201 --> 00:55:09,121
Everything's gonna be all right.
1081
00:55:09,856 --> 00:55:11,024
What could go wrong?
1082
00:55:35,264 --> 00:55:40,264
