The Good Fight (2017–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - Chaos - full transcript

Diane takes on a new client who is accused of cyber-terrorism; an accident brings Diane and Kurt together; Henry reveals new truths about the scandal to Maia.

We settled this.

Expand or die.

It's not about settling...

Hi, Maia. Thanks for coming in early.

Have you been waiting long?

No. Am I being fired?

Are you...? What?

Nothing. It's just, um, you're
both here at the same time.

No. This is our twice yearly
progress report on associates.

Well, sorry.

We've solicited notes and
criticism from the partners,



and it's been pretty uniform.

- Everyone thinks you're smart.
- Okay.

And we all know you have been distracted

by the business with your family.

Yes. I'm sorry. I've... I've tried
not to let it get in the way...

But the report also points
to a problematic area.

Boldness.

Yes. You need to assert yourself more.

- Speak up.
- I'm sorry.

- I want to...
- Maia.

That is your third
apology in 30 seconds.

Forget apologizing.

Jump in. Don't hesitate.

Look, choose a partner...



Diane, Thomas...

and you follow them around all day.

24 hours. Learn from them.

You don't take no for an answer.

Insist on following them around. Okay?

Okay, got it.

All right. Go kick some ass.

Thank you.

Do you think that worked?

No.

Let's give her two weeks.

Lucca. Thank you for coming in early.

No problem.

This is the bi-yearly review?

- Yes.
- How'd I do?

You kicked ass.

You have the most billable
hours on the floor.

All of the partners praise your work.

Lucca, we don't want to lose you.

We'd like to move you to a bigger office

and put you on the partner track.

Seriously?

Seriously.

They hate me.

No one hates you.

Who?

The partners.

My review.

Every associate gets a mediocre review.

No, they don't.

What, did you?

It was mixed.

Any word from the FBI?

No, but my guess is they bury it.

You're an afterthought in this scandal.

You'll represent me if I'm indicted?

You will not be indicted.

Good to know.

Come by for dinner tonight.

If I can.

Gonna miss that so much.

Okay, first question:

Which is most essential
in a fixed surveillance?

Constant communication,
long-term memory,

patience or agility?

Patience. Do you think they'd
want two investigators here?

Nope.

- Why not?
- Money.

- Do you want to retire?
- Nope.

Then I'm coming after your job.

Bring it.

Diane Lockhart's office,
we're here to serve.

Hi.

Yeah, hold on.

Kurt McVeigh is on the other line.

I'll have to call him
back, my 10:00 is here.

- Would you show them in?
- Sure.

I'm thinking of becoming
an investigator here.

What?

I'm thinking of becoming
an investigator here.

Will you talk to Boseman?

No.

You talk to him,
and then, I'll follow up.

My new client?

Hi. Are you here for Diane?

I'm Diane's assistant,
but I also sometimes work

as an investigator.

Would you like to come back?

Yes.

Can I get you anything?

A garbage bag.

Actually, I was thinking
more a glass of water.

Ms. Lockhart, your 10:00.

- Mr. Stack.
- Yes, hi.

How are you, Diane?

I'm well. I, um...

Please, sit down.

Why, didn't you give your name?

Well, I was worried you
wouldn't want me as a client.

I wanted to get a
chance to argue my case.

That's crazy. Why wouldn't
I want you as a client?

Bitcoin.

I thought it was all a bit too
"disruptive economy" for you.

Well, maybe for Lockhart/Gardner,

but here, you'll fit right in.

So, what's the case you want to argue?

I'm being set up.

For what?

Cyber terrorism.

- Well, that's certainly serious.
- Here you go.

Thanks.

Chicago is converting...

to a smart grid power
infrastructure, run on computers,

and during the switchover,

the system is vulnerable
to a malware attack,

like Grizzly Steppe.

Okay. I understood about
five of those words.

Grizzly Steppe was a Russian hack

on the Vermont power grid last year.

Don't ask me how I know that.

This code... is identical.

It's been injected into ETB Energy

and will cause a Chicago
blackout in nine hours.

And why is it on your computer?

I don't know.

I encrypt everything.

I run all my net contacts
through eight, 10 servers.

Nothing viral ends up on my hard drive.

And yet, I woke up this
morning, and there it was.

Somebody put this code on my laptop,

and wants me to be arrested
for cyber terrorism.

How much are your retainers?

Um, for clients?

It depends.

Hold that?

How's $90,000?

What is he, a drug dealer?

No, it's Bitcoin.

It's trading at $1,226.

More than gold.

And he wants us to do what?

This is the malware from his computer.

He wants us to offer the feds a deal.

He will defuse the
malware from the power grid

if they offer him immunity.

And if they don't?

Well, he wants us to keep
his identity confidential,

in case they don't.

Well, we are ethically bound

to tell the authorities about this.

It's a crime that will happen
at 7:00 p.m. either way.

We need to talk to the DOJ.

Who do we trust over there?

Well, hello, Ms. Quinn.

Hello, Mr. Morello.

I'm having a meeting in here.

It's been a while.

You didn't call.

I didn't think I was supposed to.

Why not?

After a breakup, it's customary.

Was that a breakup?

Was it not?

I... don't know.

Hey, um,

I found this.

I think I wore it home one night.

Yeah, I've been looking
for that. Thanks.

You keep it.

Okay.

- So what do you need?
- Well... hypothetically speaking,

if we had a client

who had knowledge of a
crime being committed...

tonight, let's say,

and he wanted to help
you prevent that crime,

might there be a deal to immunize him?

Well, that would depend.

Is he responsible for the crime?

No.

- Okay, what is the crime?
- An attack on the power grid.

Cyber terrorism.

And how does your client know about it?

He found this on his computer.

Who's the client?

You understand I can't tell you.

He's worried he'll be
prosecuted if you know.

But if you can make a deal...

Okay. Can I take this?

Come in.

None of us want to go to trial.

But for us, it's just
about time and money.

For you, it's about a life sentence.

Important.

Look, I have another meeting.

But here's your bottom line:

Immediate surrender, 35 years.

35 years? Are you kidding?
What happened to ten?

Ten was in trade for
Mr. Rindell's testimony.

- We can't use it anymore.
- This is bullshit.

Think about it, Henry.

Madoff would've killed for 35 years.

This is an exploding deal.

12 hours, and it's gone.

Henry, Henry. Don't panic.

We can still talk them
down, just let me do my work.

It's over, Rupert.

They can't offer me a better deal.

Not after the backlash
over the ten years.

We still have options, don't lose hope.

Give me a minute, please.

Yeah.

You told me to call if
it ever got to that point.

I think it just got to that point.

So who's this hacker?

Lawyer's been asked by
the client not to say.

And who's this lawyer?

Why?

Just trying to get as
many facts as I can.

Look, if we don't want to
make the deal, let's not do it.

I have to think about it.

It's supposed to hit
the power grid tonight?

Yes, around 7:00.

Okay. Tell her I'll get back to her.

"Her"?

Yeah.

It's just a guess.

Doing great, guys. Doing great.

Diane. Do you have a second?

Sure.

Am I in danger here?

- What do you mean?
- My review.

There was concern I'm not bold enough.

That's just constructive criticism.

Everyone's getting it.

I spoke to Marissa tod...

Damn.

I'm sorry, Maia. I forgot something.

Marissa. I forgot Kurt called.

- Could you return?
- Yes, but Diane,

there's someone on the line for you.

- I think it's important.
- Who?

A nurse at Harbour, line six.

Hello.

Hello, is this Diane Lockhart?

It is.

This is Nurse McRaney
at Harbour Hospital.

You're listed as the next
of kin to Mr. Kurt McVeigh.

Yes. What's wrong?

I need to speak to the next of kin.

Y-Yes, I-I am.

I'm his wife. What's wrong?

Move him down the hall
and give him extra fluids.

Hello?

I'm sorry. One second.

Don't forget to monitor...

My God, please, please.

Contacted anyone yet?

What's wrong?

Yes, we got ahold of his parents.

Sorry, ma'am. We're
calling to inform you

that your husband was in a car accident.

W-What happened? Where is he?

Habour Hospital emergency room.

He's going through surgery now.

How bad is it?

- Miss Lucca Quinn.
- Yes?

Would you accompany us, please?

Why?

What are you doing?

We're detaining Miss Quinn
as a material witness.

No, you're not.

Actually, I don't know who you are,

but yes, we are.

Hold on, Lucca.

She's gonna fuck you up.

- I can't go back to prison.
- I know.

You have it?

Yeah.

- When?
- Tonight.

I'll come for you at 8:00.

Yeah.

Hey, Henry.

You can't say good-bye to anyone.

They can't know it's a good-bye.

8:00.

- Hello?
- Hey, babe, what are you doing?

Working, Dad. Can I call you back?

Yeah. Maia,

I was hoping you could
come by for dinner tonight.

I mean, I'll try.

Things are pretty crazy here.

Well, I-it would mean
a lot... to your mom.

We're thinking of,
eating around 6:30.

Okay. I might just be there for dessert.

Tell Mom like 8:30, 9:00.

Um, actually...

a-are you sure you
can't come by earlier?

Dad, I mean, I'll try,

but, look, I got to go, okay?

I'll call you back.

Okay.

- Be safe, please.
- Okay. Bye.

Bye.

Wait, wait!

We can argue this at another time.

The fact is, we took on the
client, we have his retainer,

and the goal should be
to defend Lucca, yes?

She's at the DOJ and
it's Dincon himself.

Phil, call federal
court. Get us court time.

What do the Feds want anyhow?

Who was here when they took Lucca?

I was.

They want to know the
identity of Diane's client.

Okay. Lucca's friend screwed her.

I'll take court.

I'll argue for a restraining order.

They're trying to pierce
attorney-client privilege.

I'll talk to the client.

Maybe he's willing to come forward,

save us all the trouble.

Where is Diane, anyhow?

Sorry..

Kurt McVeigh, please.

I'm, I'm his wife.

Mrs. McVeigh?

Yes.

- He's out of surgery.
- Is he okay?

He should be.

The doctor just needs to run some tests,

- but he should be fine.
- Well, what happened?

There was an incident with a
car, some kind of carjacking.

Can we get the charge nurse, please?

E-Excuse me.

Diane?

What are you doing here?

My God. They called me.

I'm-I'm... I'm your next of kin.

- I told them no, it's nothing.
- Where are you going?

- Get back into bed.
- I want to move around.

No, this is serious.

I mean, my God, what happened?

- You were carjacked?
- No. Somebody else.

I was knocked down.

Kurt, you're not 20 years old anymore.

Get back into bed.

You look so grumpy.

I had to delay my whole day.

What were you calling
about this morning?

What was I calling about?

Yes. This morning.

- I forget.
- No. No, you didn't.

Got hit in the head.

Kurt, I thought you were dead.

I'm not.

Don't do things that put
you in the hospital, okay?

Okay.

God.

Sorry.

I mean, it just never stops.

Yeah. Gee, very well, thank you.

- What the hell?!
- You undercut me, sir.

Yeah. Get Judge Kassovitz back on!

An attorney came to me
asking for anonymity.

- You mean, your girlfriend?
- Sir, this is serious.

It makes my position here untenable.

You didn't tell me
anything, Colin. I guessed.

I guessed that you were
hiding your girlfriend.

- You tell her that.
- I'm resigning.

No, you're being promoted.

To Deputy.

That's what you always
wanted anyway, right?

Your Honor, this all comes down
to attorney-client privilege.

Your Honor, you know if I'm here,

this is not a routine matter.

Why are you here, sir?

Because this is about cyber terrorism.

No, this is about the Sixth Amendment.

God...

They seized our attorney
and are holding her

until she names our client.

That is the definition
of governmental over...

Okay, okay.

On the record. What relief
are you seeking, Counselor?

A temporary restraining order

forcing the Department of Justice

to release Lucca Quinn.

And I'm granting such an order.

What?

Diane!

When the fuck did that happen?

What happened?

We won the restraining order,

so now they're prosecuting Lucca.

- For what?
- And they got assigned Judge Kassovitz.

Yeah.

The most conservative son
of a bitch on the bench.

- They're venue shopping.
- Yeah.

No, I'm coming in.

I'll be there in 15 minutes.

What's up?

I'm tailing you.

Today is not a good day, Maia.

Come on, come on.
We'll do this tomorrow.

You told me not to
take no for an answer.

So, no, I'm coming.

Sure, sure.

Why not?

Okay...

What are you doing?

Put some lights on in here.

You going out?

To get my hair done.

Michael won't see me at
the salon anymore, but...

he does it at his home.

Hey. Come here.

Come here.

Come here.

I'll bring home dinner.

I love you.

Hey, Lenny.

I'm glad I married you.

Me, too.

Okay, buddy.

One last walk.

Okay, Maia, watch what I do.

Eye contact, always.

Don't back down. Advance.

Don't ever, ever, ever retreat.

Okay, where are we?

Everybody sit down.

This is an urgent matter, yes?

The only thing that's
urgent here, Your Honor,

is that we have a T.R.O.
from another judge's court.

That is the controlling interest...

No, the urgency is we have four hours

to stop a cyber terrorism
attack on our power grid.

Which Lucca Quinn has
nothing to do with.

- That's not true.
- What?

What's not true?

We're charging Lucca
Quinn as a co-conspirator

in cyber terrorism.

Henry.

Hey. Hey, Rupert.

- What's up?
- We have to talk.

Sure. You start.

The prosecutor called again.

He did offer you one trade
for taking the 35 years.

Yeah, what's that?

A nice view?

They have something on Maia.

She was offered a proffer.

She shared what she knew,
which wasn't that much,

but they caught her in a
lie. She perjured herself.

Well... why didn't they
tell us that before?

- Why...
- It just happened last week.

Okay, what's the offer?

You take the 35 years,
they won't prosecute her.

And how much could she get for perjury?

If they wanted to be tough...

I think, given the
popular will, they might...

five years.

Hey...

What do you want to do, Henry?

Look, I am not going
away for 20 years, okay?

- I didn't do anything.
- Then you won't go away.

We're your lawyers. We will defend you.

But Lucca Quinn is being
held as your co-conspirator.

But it's not in my interests
to put my name forward.

The Feds didn't go for
the immunity offer, right?

- They're looking for a scapegoat?
- Okay, so you didn't do it, right?

All right.

You have any idea who did?

My guess is it's someone on 4chan.

There's a group of us outsiders

who joked about hacks
on the infrastructure.

Okay, so everybody is anonymous.

Right. So how do we find out who?

Who do you most suspect?

Well, the person I argued
politics with the most

was Edict776.

He kept trying to
change the hacking talk

from a joke to a reality.

- You don't know his real name?
- No.

And if he's as smart as his hacks,

he's buried his tracks pretty deeply.

Here he is... Edict776.

We keep saying "he." Maybe he's a "she."

Wow. That was surly.

I'll funnel his postings
through this forensic software

for grammar recognition.

Okay, that's useless.

Did-did this guy ever talk
about posting on other sites?

- If we could cross-reference it...
- Not to me.

Wait.

Go for Marissa.

Yeah, I'll send him.

Diane wants to talk to you.

Keep me in touch.

Did you just make up that phone call?

I don't trust him, and it looked like

you were onto something. Were you?

Yeah, a few screens
back. What'd he do to you?

He's this genius hacker,

and he hasn't done
what you're doing now?

I mean, I think you're
smart and everything,

but he hasn't run it
through forensic software?

You are pretty good at this.

Yeah, I told you, I'm
coming after your job.

So what is it?

This posting from Edict776. Read it.

"Sometimes I think we
need a surgical holocaust."

"Just kill the irritating..."

We know him.

- Back up!
- Back up!

Get back! Get back!

Fuck the old way!

No, hate, no speech!

This way. Through here.

- He's the hacker?
- We think so.

Why won't he talk to you two?

- I'm black.
- I'm Jewish.

- Dear God.
- Hey, sucks!

We don't want the old way!

This way, this way.

No speech, no hate!

No speech, no hate! No speech, no hate!

No speech, no hate!

No speech, no hate! No speech, no hate!

Mother.

Did you come to hear my speech?

I don't think anyone's
here to hear your speech.

I know. Isn't it great?

All those people, so angry and excited.

I'm the best thing that
ever happened to them.

And they got to pay me either way.

Are you Edict776?

Diane, where are the pleasantries?

I've been living a
very full life lately.

So I've read.

Your joke about dead children?

- Hasn't been going well for you.
- Really?

Well, I think it's been
going spectacularly.

I'm trending on Twitter
ten days in a row.

How much have you been
trending the last few weeks?

It's an odd attitude for
someone who needs my help.

Is this hack yours?

What, the hack on the power grid?

- Diane, no.
- I've been reading your posts on 4chan.

- Sure sounds like yours.
- I am a leader. I inspire.

But you do want this
power grid to go down?

Well, who doesn't love a blackout?

You get to light
candles, fuck a stranger,

loot an Apple store, make Rahm
Emanuel look like an asshole.

So this is about
embarrassing the Democrats?

No. I mean, that's great,
too, but, no. It's...

it's about disruption.

We love it in the tech world.
Why not in the real one?

But again, this is not my hack.

Yes, I encouraged someone,
but legally, I did nothing.

Who have you encouraged?
Do you know his name?

- No. I know his handle.
- Listen...

we need your help, Mr. Staples.

Diane.

There's nothing I'd
rather do than help you,

after all we've been through,

but I-I have legal troubles of my own.

They occupy my days,
they interrupt my nights.

What legal troubles?

Where should I begin?

Guess who the victim is?

There were several speaking
engagements canceled.

I'd like you to sue them, too.

You know, I can't sue all of them.

We'll prioritize.

You do realize you made a
joke about school shootings?

Yes, but I didn't
commit a school shooting,

no matter how annoying my
gender studies professors were.

There was nothing in those contracts

about what I can say and what I can't.

All right, let's move on
to the next issue. My issue.

What is the screen name of the hacker?

- Him.
- Or her.

Or they.

- Tarr19.
- All right.

And you will go online
and ask him or her

to meet about the blackout tonight?

- I might.
- No. One for you, and one for me.

Okay, the first for me
is to sue my radio show.

Those bitches left me high and dry!

Now, I will get on it.
Now you get on it, too.

You guys would make a great cop show.

Mr. Brown and Fran.

Thanks.

Good one.

Diane, did you get in
touch with your husband?

No. I mean, yes. Why?

- Did you see him on YouTube?
- No.

- What do you mean?
- Very sexy video.

You should look it up.

Your Honor, this is a trick

to get around the restraining order.

We ask for immediate relief.

I wish it were, Your Honor.

But Lucca Quinn is a co-conspirator,

and we ask that we be
allowed to present testimony

to support this contention.

How long is it gonna take?

The witness is right here now.

Let's go.

You had a meeting with Lucca Quinn,

did you not, Mr. AUSA?

I did.

And what did she give you?

A flash drive.

Did it look like this?

It did.

And when we inserted this
flash drive into our computers,

what happened?

It introduced the
malware into our system.

Thus bypassing our firewall?

Yes. But Ms. Quinn intended...

Thank you, Mr. AUSA.

Mr. AUSA, let's really
get down to it here.

Are you Ms. Quinn's ex-lover?

Objection, Your Honor.

- Relevance.
- Goes to motive, Your Honor.

Sure. Go see what you can do with it.

- Objection overruled.
- Thank you.

Are you her ex-lover?

- Yes.
- I'm sorry, I can't hear you.

Yes.

And did she break up with you?

I would guess it was...

mutual.

You would guess.

Since you're in a guessing mode,

would you also guess
that your whole testimony

is an attempt by you
to get back at the woman

who broke up with you?!

- Objection.
- Seriously,

you're using my client's
ex-lover to put her in jail,

- and you're objecting to the fact...
- Stop.

That I am establishing
that his whole motivation is...

Stop! That's enough.

You've done enough
damage to the witness.

If you have any more
questions, ask them.

No, Your Honor, but I would
like an answer to my question.

Mr. AUSA?

Would you like to lean in
so you could hear me clearly?

I can hear you just fine.

I'd like His Honor to hear you.

I'm telling you the truth.

Are you using us?

- Excuse me?
- I said, are you using us?

I just came from court
where they presented evidence

that that flash drive he
gave us is a Trojan horse.

- What?
- Yeah, it's infected.

And he used us to get it
past the government firewall.

The malware needed to
infect a DOJ computer,

and you used us to do it!

- No. No.
- Yes!

I don't believe you.

It doesn't matter. I'm your client.

- We're firing you.
- You can't.

- And I'm not firing you.
- My firm.

You're fired. Get your ass out.

Ahem.

Was, that just an act?

Little bit.

What do you think?

- Even if it's true, we're stuck.
- Lucca's stuck.

Let me see if I can use
Felix to get somewhere.

No, we're actually
using Felix ourselves.

You need to wait on that.

Ex-excuse me.

Maia, yeah, what's up?

We're back in session.

What? They said an hour.

- You joining us, miss?
- Yes,

Your Honor. One second.

They can't beat me, so
they're squeezing me out.

All right, look, you start
with the rebuttal witness.

I'll be right there. Can you do that?

- Yes. Of course.
- Good.

You get angry and you focus.

Angry and you focus. All right?

I'm pissed.

I believe you.

Thank you for answering
questions today, Mr. Staple.

Actually, that's two staples, not one.

It's like a high-end magazine.

Do you know that Ms. Quinn

is not a co-conspirator to this malware?

Yes, I do not.

You do not?

Yes, I do know that she is not.

And,

how do you know that?

Well, I-I feel that I could best
illustrate the answer with a song.

You're not singing in my courtroom, sir.

Mr. Staples, are you in
touch with the real hacker?

I am.

Tell us how the hack was devised.

Just so we all understand,

I am reporting what the hacker said.

I thought he was joking.

But the hack was devised in such a way

as to trick an unwitting
mule such as Ms. Quinn

into carrying it on a flash drive

and injecting it into
a governmental drive.

So, as far as you know,

Ms. Quinn is innocent?

As a fetus.

Thank you.

What did you say about
the Jews on 4chan?

Come on. Your Honor, objection.

- Goes to bias, Your Honor.
- It does not.

Well, maybe it goes
to Mr. Dincon's bias,

- but not to the bias...
- Excuse me. A bit more respect.

Why? You're the one trying to
slip something by His Honor.

You see his culture and religion

and try to use that...

I did not try to...

You're all out of order!
I was simply satirizing!

Shut up! Don't say another word.

Your Honor, this joker is
an anti-Semitic provocateur.

No, he is not.

And-and this is just
an amateurish attempt

to try and undermine
some damaging testimony.

What-what I find offensive

is that you think the judge
could be so easily manipulated.

She's right, Mr. Dincon.

Go sit down.

Your motion is sustained, miss.

Thank you, Your Honor.

Thank you, Maia. I
didn't want to push it,

but I really wanted to see you.

You seem emotional.

And you seem happy.

It was a good day.

My two favorite people.

Part of me wants to
take a picture of this.

But the other part just
wants to remember it.

Will you guys excuse me for a minute?

I have to return Rupert's call.

I'll be right back.

Rupert,

I'll take the deal.

The, 35 years.

I have one request.

I want tonight with my family.

I'll self-surrender later tonight,

but I want one last dinner.

This is awful.

I can feel the MSG
seeping into my pores.

My guess is Tarr19 suggested it.

And he and I are
supposed to be incognito.

The only two Aryans in
a Chinese restaurant.

Unless he's Chinese.

Okay. I'm leaving you
and staying hidden.

Just keep him talking for a minute,

until they intervene.

Who's "they"?

God, I feel a certain chill.

I feel dirty.

You'll get it past the
firewalls in Los Angeles?

Damn right. But I think
we should try Vegas.

Right? A blackout there...

Celine clawing through the crowd...

No, the key is big financial centers.

Vegas is a big financial center.

No, not in a way that brings change.

You're a Bernie Bro?

Okay. We really don't need to go there.

We agree on the ends,
that's what matters.

I supported Trump because
I thought the world

would be more fun.

You supported Trump because, what?

It would bring on the revolution?

Who's the bigger asshole?

Are we working together or not?

Probably... not.

Excuse me, sir.

Yeah, sorry.

Next time try someone trustworthy.

You want to stand up so I can
read you your rights, please?

Come on.

- You set me up.
- No. We're your lawyers.

We didn't know who would show up.

Sir, you have the
right to remain silent.

Anything you say can and will be

used against you in a court of law.

- You're representing me?
- Yes.

And I would suggest you remain silent.

One will be appointed for you.

There it is.

Right on time.

Attention. Please stay calm

and look for the emergency exit signs.

Do not run. Walk slowly and carefully.

I can take it from here, Sal.

Here's your cell. Go home.

What happened?

We caught the real hacker.

A little late.

Take care.

Colin.

Yeah.

I know it wasn't you that did this.

Be careful out there, Lucca.

It's nuts.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

I love this city.

Sometimes it just feels like
the eighth Wonder, you know?

I hear you did well.

Yeah. Lucca's free.

And you did well, too.

There's a whole lot of people

who want to see this
country fail, Diane.

- Are you talking about our clients?
- Not just.

It's a grim time out there.

And weird.

It feels like something's come detached.

You know, like a piece of machinery

that doesn't sound right?

So what do we do?

The same thing we're doing.

The only constant is the law.

Everybody running around out
there doing God knows what.

The only constant we have is the law.

I'm glad I'm here, Adrian.

I'm glad you're here, too, Diane.

- That...
- That must be...

Rupert.

I'll get it.

Thank you, Maia.

For what?

Not judging us, not judging me.

Do you love Dad?

We had troubles and, um...

we never wanted to bother you

with them, but, um...

Yes, I love your dad.

This will be a hard time.

The trial?

No.

Your father's agreed to a 35-year plea.

What? When?

Tonight. That's why he
called you to come home.

You've got it. I'll be
outside in two minutes.

Dad. No.

You need to fight this.
What are you doing?

Please, Maia.

- I can't.
- You can.

They're acting tough,
but what do they have?

- I saw the evidence.
- What evidence?

Dad, I spent today thinking

I was overwhelmed by evidence.

- But with a good argument...
- I'm guilty.

I did it.

- No. Jax did.
- Yes.

And I did it, too.

And your mom...

and everyone.

Everyone knew.

We paid off the SEC.

We paid off anyone who got suspicious.

That's Rupert.

I'm...

I am so sorry...

to disappoint you.

I'm so sorry.

You never could.

I love you.

- You ready?
- Yeah.

Let's go.

So you're a hero.

I saw it.

The video.

Okay. It's... let's not.

What? I was talking to you

like you were eight
years old and you're...

- you're Sully or something.
- Diane, please.

I don't like it when people...

make a big deal.

I represent unscrupulous people,

and you...

you save children.

You...

I was calling you to ask you to dinner.

- Are you sure you'll be all right?
- Yeah, I'm fine.

Come in. Stay the night.

Don't drive back to the city.

I love you.

I was so hurt.

I know.

It won't happen again.

Stay. I'll light a fire.

- My convict.
- My lawyer.

Who fucking killed it in court.

Thank you.

Wow.

Looks like a soft-porn movie in here.

Well, I do my best.

- Where's Amy?
- She's on her way home.

We'll have to eat cold mac and cheese.

- I love cold mac and cheese.
- Good.

You still worried about your job?

I'm always worried.

It was crazy coming
here, like a street party.

Yeah. I kind of liked it, though.

Yeah.

To a weird three months.

Yes.

This is what I think.

- Want to hear?
- Yeah.

I think for every weird three months,

there are three normal months.

I mean, the world has to
live in balance, right?

So, I mean, my guess
is the next three months

will be boring.

To boring.

Was everything okay with Colin?

Not really.

But to boring, right?

Right.

Amy forgot her keys again.

Maia.

Thank you.

Hey.

Dinner is going to be cold.

Maia Rindell.

Come on, we finished.

No.

Your dad fled.

You're under arrest.
