The Good Wife (2009–2016): Season 2, Episode 11 - Two Courts - full transcript

Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Medina.
The eve before trial.

Always a nightmare.
You met Kalinda?

No.

I'm Kalinda.

Hal Peterman speaks highly of you.

He says you helped him
on the Michigan River killings.

And our client suggested we meet.

Yes, I've met Mr. Bauer. I like him.

I do too. Um...

It's just that we already have a jury
consultant and we already have a jury.

- I know. I don't pick juries.
- Oh, then what do you do?



I read a jury's microexpressions to
make sure you are persuading them.

- Or not.
- Microexpressions?

Uh, fleeting emotional displays
revealing a person's true feelings.

And how much do you charge
for this service?

Sixty thousand dollars a week.

Or $250,000 for the full trial.

- Can we try a test?
- Sure.

What does this
microexpression mean?

It's prejudicial.

So you think the prosecution
won't try to admit it?

I know they will. But the judge will see
your job as irrelevant to the crime.

- It's just, people hate what I do.
- Spam.

Search engine optimisation.

Don't worry. The prosecution
will be too busy shoring up motive.



Need to show you killed your father
to keep him from changing his will.

My dad was my best friend.
I would never hurt him.

You get a good night's sleep.

All right.

- It's good to have you back.
- Thanks.

I heard a lot happened.

Sixty grand a week.

Contract him for two.

And stop by my office afterwards.
I have a quick thing on Stanton.

Sure.

- Really? The Jury Whisperer?
- Hey, if the client wants to pay,

use him as a tool.
Do you have a second?

You need to talk to Diane.

I think you already know
I did talk to Diane.

I know you threatened
to bar her from her office

with security guards.

We need to keep her on
the reservation for two more months.

Why?

I'm bringing in an independent
expenditure-only committee.

- A Super PAC?
- Yes. One of the biggest.

A hundred million dollars
of unlimited corporate spending.

But we need to stay whole
another two months.

- We can't scare them with civil war.
- And after two months?

We push her out.

So calm the waters.

Keep Diane from leaving.

I'm leaving.

Leaving?
Okay, where are you leaving?

Lockhart, Gardner.

Do you need references?

I made a mistake, Cary,
letting you go.

I've watched you grow at the state's
attorney's office, and I have to admit,

I've been awestruck.

- I like the state's attorney's office.
- I know you do. It's a good boot camp.

But at a certain point,
you need to get back in the game.

- You don't think I'm in the game?
- I don't think you're being paid

as if you're in the game.

I'm starting a new firm.

With David Lee, Julius Cain.

And I wanna offer you
a key seat at the table.

How key?

Senior associate. Two-year path
to equity partnership.

Who else is going?

Samuels.

- Hunter, Bachner, Mazin.
- Kalinda?

I don't know.

She plays it close to the vest,
but, um, she's unhappy.

Alicia?

I asked her.

My guess is she stays with Will.

- I'll consider it.
- Good.

I need to know in a week.
Is that doable?

Very.

Good luck in court tomorrow.

I don't know why
we're having this conversation.

- Really?
- Mr. Gold.

- Just the polling, nothing else.
- Okay.

- The candidate's here?
- Yes.

Ha, ha. Eli, come over here.

Eli, meet Adam. Adam, Eli.

Ah, Eli Gold, the terror
of Michigan Avenue.

Uh, just dropping by for a visit?

A visit with gifts.

Oh, God. What was her name?

- It was... Uh... Melissa...
- Melissa.

Advance team in 2004.

Oh, this girl right out of NYU.

She brought in chili and
gave everybody food poisoning.

I mean, people...
People were puking for days.

Anyway, Adam's got some ideas
for fundraising.

- Really?
- Yeah, well,

- I heard you were struggling a bit.
- Momentarily.

Yeah, but it's the impression.

Yeah, and you know how impressions
become facts with big donors.

Adam did some good work for me
on my first run,

and I just thought he could do
the same here.

I mean, that is if it works for you two.

I'm just here to help,
not get in your way.

- It's Republican money.
- You don't know that.

I know that. They want you
to play spoiler.

They want to damage the Democrats
going into fall.

He's not coming in above you, Eli.

- That's not what this is about.
- Yes, it is.

I'm telling you right now, I am looking
you in the eye, you are the boss.

Adam Boras works for you.
But we need cash.

Right now, or it's over.

And if there are strings attached?

We say "no, thank you." And we
hold our heads high when we lose.

Make this happen.

Oh, good. You're on time.

Hm, what are you doing,
playing dress-up?

Um, we're behind
on the Stanton suit,

so I'm gonna need you
to help the associates

run some background checks today.

Did you hear me?

- They're real?
- Yes.

Reading glasses.

Oh. Um...

Look, you tell Bond to call me
in an hour.

Kalinda, I don't think
you're getting this.

I assigned you a task.
Help the associates on Stanton.

I need it done now.

Look, we've had our fun and games,
but it's over.

I've been made your supervisor.

You know what? That's good,
that's good. Have a laugh.

Have a big laugh, okay?
And go outside and then

compose yourself and then
come back in ready to work.

- Thank you.
- For what?

Your client didn't wanna
be written out of a will

so he pushed his rich father
out of a 12th-floor window.

Have you seen these photos?

They look pretty prejudicial to me.

My guess is
the jury never sees them.

Know what they did in Roman times
to people who killed their fathers?

Put them in a sack
with a snake, a chicken and a dog,

and threw them in a river.

Are we really plea-bargaining down
from Roman times?

What'll you give me, just a chicken?

Bauer confesses to his father's
murder and we'll bump it down to...

Twenty-five.

Twenty-five years.
Now that's a good day's work

for Gardner and Bond.

Yeah, hold on one second, Cary.

Your Honor?

- No, His Honor Weldon.
- Ah.

That's why we're plea-bargaining
during the middle of your game, huh?

I'm sorry, Cary. Could you hold
on one more second? Your Honor.

- It's your day to collect cell phones.
- Ah.

Girlfriend?
- Yeah.

Her place or mine, a real negotiation.

I'll be right with you, honey.

Think that chicken in a sack is looking
pretty good about now, Cicero.

Let's talk manslaughter. Two years.

We can get a recusal.

Ha, ha, yeah, that's a good idea.

Judges love to be asked to recuse
themselves on the first day of trial.

- We'll take it to the chief judge.
- Hold on.

I think he's here too.
And don't get all outraged.

The state's attorney plays poker
with half the judges in Cook County.

And Ms. Pine, you play tennis
with Chief Adler, don't you?

Look, Cary, I'll be playing
for the next two hours.

Phone my cell
or we're going to court.

We can offer second-degree.

No. A year ago this guy killed a man,
and the jury will see that.

And Judge Weldon?

Will's playing basketball with him,
that's all.

Unless he can play with the whole jury,
I say we trust the evidence.

Okay.

I'm sorry. You were saying something
about skills?

- What are you doing?
- Nothing.

At least look like you're trying.

What, are you afraid to D me up?

Ball up.

Gonna guard me now, Will?

- I'll guard you.
- All right.

- What the hell was that?
- You said to guard you.

- I didn't say "mug me."
- You wanna call the foul, call the foul.

Ball up.

Hey, sorry about that back there.

I got a little carried away.
No second gear.

We're good, right?

Ha. Just messing with you.
Yeah, we're good.

- We're good.
- You sure?

Yes. What, you want me not to be?

No, no, as long as we're cool.
Let's go.

Nah. Nah, I think I'm a bit tired.

I'm heading home.

Thank you.

- I'm sorry.
- Excuse me?

Don't make this harder.

No, I literally didn't hear
what you said.

I'm sorry that I threatened
to bar you from work.

I'm sorry that I lost my cool.

So, what do we do?

I don't want you to leave.

I wanna make things different
so you don't leave.

You'll stop seeing other women?

So, what do you want?

I want transparency.

I want us to share our client lists.

Share as in?

Meetings, calls, everything.

Now, that would worry me
if you were leaving

because that would mean
you'd have time to solicit my clients.

So it's a good thing I'm not leaving.

As you can see, Your Honor,
they're highly prejudicial.

And highly accurate.

Overruled. It's best evidence.
What else?

Sorry, Your Honor.
I was, uh, delayed.

Let the record reflect that
Mr. Gardner has joined our little party.

Anything else, counselors?

Your Honor, we believe our client's
profession is irrelevant to this crime,

and every reference to it
would be prejudicial.

We agree, and we will make
no such reference.

Good, agreement. How refreshing.

We ask for the inclusion of evidence

of the defendant's drinking.

- He's denied this.
- Yes, and we would argue

the denial's why the victim threatened
to write your client out of his will.

We ask to include photographic
evidence of the defendant

- with an alcoholic beverage.
- When was this?

A World War II reenactment,
October 2009.

We found this photograph during
a search of the defendant's apartment.

Objection, Your Honor.
You're kidding me.

Oh, I'm sorry. Is that not your client
holding a beer?

Yes, and we would stipulate
he had the occasional beer...

We don't have to stipulate.
We have a photo proving it.

Your Honor, our client is a
World War II buff. It's just his hobby.

But without context...

We suggest the defense
give it context.

Your Honor,
this is not about drinking.

This is about playing on a jury's bias.

This is about seeing our client
as a Nazi.

I think the jury is smart enough

to distinguish between
a World War II buff

and a murderer. Overruled.

Let's get this started.

There was no sign of forced entry.

There was blood from the victim
on the balcony here.

And the victim was discovered
12 stories below.

Why did you arrest Mr. Bauer?

Forensic technicians found DNA
under the victim's fingernails

which matched Mr. Scott Bauer.

Neighbors also complained about
hearing an argument

between Mr. Bauer and his father.

Then you searched
Mr. Bauer's home?

- Yes, sir.
- And what did you find?

And this photo shows Mr. Bauer
holding a beer. Is that correct?

Yes, in his right hand.

And he claimed he didn't drink.
Is that correct?

disgust, anger, fear...

Just the bottom line.

Four jurors were moved
to brief micro-bursts of disgust.

- At the crime scene photos?
- No.

Oh, no. The crime photos
created universal disgust.

The photos of Mr. Bauer engendered
feelings of directed disgust

at Mr. Bauer.

Great. They think we have
Colonel Klink as a client.

We still have the robbery evidence.

Kalinda, can you get everything
together on the robberies?

No.

Look, I don't wanna have to
go over your head.

Good, because there is no
over my head.

You spent too much on push-polling,
and now your ego

won't let you back down.
I've brought in the cash...

Which buys you a place at the table.
Welcome.

The most I have to do
is listen to you.

I have listened and
I have found you wanting.

Unless that's Buddha and Jesus
on speed dial,

I don't think we have
much to talk about.

Jackie, how are you?

Yeah. Yeah, hi, it's Adam.

It's funny. I'm sitting right here
with Eli Gold.

Do you know Peter's mother?

We became friends
during the '04 campaign.

She's the one who
phoned me to help.

No. No, no, no,
we're playing nice.

You are such a kidder.

You said there were signs
of a struggle, detective?

I did, yes.

And you had been in the
neighborhood a week earlier

and found a similar scene,
hadn't you?

Objection. Irrelevant and immaterial.

Overruled. You may answer.

Your Honor,
may we approach the bench?

You may. You'll have to excuse us.
We're not being rude intentionally.

The defense is trying to draw
a connection between this murder

and three unsolved robberies
in the neighborhood.

- We would ask for a proffer
- Oh, come on.

before they continue
this line of questioning.

There was no sign of forced entry.

No sign of forced entry
in the other burglaries either.

Doors were chosen without peepholes
so the victim would come to the door.

The police cross-referenced
the victim's belongings

with an inventory filed with his
insurance carrier. Nothing was missing.

Then let the prosecution argue that
and let the jury decide, Your Honor.

I'm siding with the prosecution on this.
Unless you can present evidence

to support a theory of robbery,
I'll sustain the objection.

What objection? There was none.

- Objection.
- Sustained.

Do you have a problem,
Mr. Gardner?

Should I have a problem?

Well, that's up to you, isn't it?

- Could have gone either way.
- No. He's deciding against us.

What do you wanna do?

What's going on?

- What do you mean?
- You.

- What's your address?
- My address?

Your old address
before you worked here.

2266 Weyburn. Why?

I took this from Blake's car.
And for some reason,

it has your old address in it.

What?

He also wrote down a name.
Uh, "Marcie Raines."

That was my neighbor.

Someone he interviewed
over a month ago.

What are you doing?

- Excuse me?
- What are you doing investigating me?

- You talked to my neighbor?
- Look...

Who the hell told you
you could talk to my neighbor?

- Look, Alicia...
- Don't you dare try to calm me.

It was just a simple
background check.

By who? Who told you
to background-check?

I unfortunately can't say.

Don't you ever look into
my background again.

- Do you have a minute?
- Sure.

Oh, that's right. You wanted to talk
when things calmed down.

During the death row appeal, you said
you wanted to talk about something.

Oh, no. I mean, yes,
uh, at some point,

but this is something else.

Someone told Blake to do
a background check on me.

Some... What?

He investigated
my old neighborhood.

He talked to my old neighbors.
He said it was a background check.

- What's going on?
- I have no idea.

- Just...
- You don't have to explain.

I'll find out. I didn't ask for it,
Diane didn't ask for it.

And Bond?

I'll find out.

That's not what I wanted to talk about
when I asked before. It...

I know what it is.

You? How do you know?

Diane told me.

Are we possibly talking about
two different things?

Diane asked you to join her
at her new firm.

Yes.

That's what it was. I wanted to tell you,
but she invoked confidentiality.

I get it. Don't worry.

I don't wanna go with her.

Good. I'm glad.

Okay, I'm going now.

Maybe another time,
things will slow down.

Yes, I phoned him.

If you don't mind me saying so,
that was a mistake.

I don't mind you saying so.

The money he brings
has strings attached.

You see, Mr. Gold, I've just been
so out of touch with the campaign.

I wanted to help
so I phoned an old friend,

someone who always
kept me in touch.

I just haven't wanted to trouble you,
ma'am.

Oh, yes. Well, I'm sure that's it.
Adam doesn't mind troubling me.

- Your Honor.
- You didn't play tonight.

No, gotta prepare for trial tomorrow.

Look, judge, I feel like the other night
you and I got into it and...

It's just a game, that's all.
I've already forgotten about it.

Well, me too.
Except in court it feels like...

- You know...
- No, heh, I don't know.

Why don't you enlighten me?

You're not gonna make this easy
for me, are you?

If you're trying to accuse me
of something, counselor,

why don't you just
come out and say it?

Okay.

You're mad because I fouled you and
you're taxing me in court because of it.

You're letting the SA's office put any
damn thing they want into evidence.

The SA's office would like to know
you're having ex parte discussions

with me about the case
behind their back.

You're one to talk.

- Watch it, Will.
- No, you watch it. You're the...

You need to recuse yourself.

- Ha, ha, ha.
- I'm asking you to recuse yourself.

No.

Then let me withdraw. Because right
now I'm doing a disservice to my client.

No. We have got a jury. I am not giving
anyone grounds for mistrial.

You took the case, you try it.
It's called defense.

You should learn to play some.

- What else?
- I don't know how long

this is gonna take.

That's the one to keep your eye on.

Right there in the center.

He's the leader.

Now, he's not the most handsome,
he's not the richest, he's not the...

He's not the most knowledgeable.
But he's the pack leader.

You see, people are like dogs.

The way to read them is like dogs.

It's a pack mentality.

How much do you make in a year?

I don't know. It varies.

But you work?
People actually hire you?

Yes.

I have an 80 percent prediction rate.

Yeah, I looked into your past cases.
You're very selective.

You seem to choose cases
that are easy to predict.

- People don't complain.
- People wanna believe in magic.

There. There they go.

The pack disperses, it readjusts.
It follows, some stay behind.

That's not magic, ma'am.

People are not unique.

They are as predictable as the tides,
as trainable as pets.

Here's what I think we should do.

Judge Weldon is biased. I think
we can get his bias to work for us.

I'm gonna provoke him
by asking for a recusal.

And I'm afraid I need you
to bear the brunt of his anger.

The jury will react more if they see him
being biased against you.

You're going for jury nullification?

Yes, or a strong appeal. We can't undo
his bias, but we can push it.

Okay, whatever you need.

What's going on?
What's going on with Blake?

You mean my supervisor?

What are you talking about?

- Blake has been made my supervisor.
- No, he hasn't.

Wait.

Alicia says he's been doing
background checks on the associates.

Yeah, partners too.

But I'm sure it's all innocent. Anyway,
I just wanted to wish you good luck.

Wait, Kalinda, stop.

What can I do?

I need you here, working.

Fifty thousand dollar a year increase.

That's...

...too much.

You just paid 120 grand
for a medicine man,

so don't talk to me about too much.

His name is Adam Boras,
part of Peter's 2004 campaign.

He jokes a lot with Peter.
Talks fondly about old times.

- No.
- What?

This only works when you don't
try to manipulate me, Mr. Gold.

You wanna get rid of someone,
get rid of someone.

I wanted to show you something.
Excuse me.

This is from one of my friends.

You see the label on the bottle.

- It's a nonalcoholic beer.
- That's great. I'll tell Will.

Thank you. I'm just nervous,
as you can imagine.

- Go ahead, say it.
- No.

No, I wasn't gonna say anything.
Nazis need to be defended too.

Feel better getting that out?

You're right. This Boras thing
is my problem.

It's just that I found out
he was phoned by Jackie.

That sounds about right.

I need to talk to Peter about
Jackie's influence in the campaign.

- Any thoughts on that?
- No.

Thanks anyway.

Eli?

There's only one thing
Jackie loves in life.

She won't listen to me
and she won't listen to you.

She'll only listen to Peter.
That's how you handle Jackie.

You got a motion, counselor,
before I call the jury?

Yes, I do.

We ask you, with all due deference,
to recuse yourself.

The motion is denied.

Your Honor, you have been using
a private grudge to rule from bias.

You've got a lot of nerve.

You left me no other option.

- Please address me as "Your Honor."
- Your Honor,

- I fouled you in basketball...
- You can sit down right now,

- counselor.
- Your bias is clear to all.

I have never held a lawyer
in contempt before, Mr. Gardner,

but I will break that streak
if you don't sit the hell down now.

Call the jury.

And that's when I saw Mr. Bauer
and his son, there, arguing.

Did you hear what they
were arguing over?

Yes. I'm not a snoop.

It's just as the building manager,
I hear a lot of things.

Mr. Bauer was
a recovering alcoholic.

He expressed his disappointment
that his son was still drinking.

Then he threatened
to write him out of his will.

Thank you, Mr. Kuney.
No further questions.

So just a few questions, sir.

You've been a manager at the
apartments for how long, Mr. Kuney?

Oh, my goodness.
I guess it's been six years.

Where has the time gone?

And you recently put new locks

- on your apartment door, didn't you?
- Objection. Relevance.

Your Honor, it is relevant because
it's about the recent burglaries

- at the apartment.
- Counselor, I've already ruled on that.

I'm sorry, Your Honor.
No harm, no foul.

Excuse me?

I said "no harm, no foul."
It's a basketball colloquialism.

Yes, I know what it is.

Do you have a problem?

No, I don't, Your Honor.
My apologies.

May I proceed?

If you have something to say,

make a motion.

Don't sneak it into the record.

I wanted to work with Ike,
but he's got his minions.

We're having the status meeting
in here today, Peter.

Oh, okay. Hey, listen,
Adam has a great idea of how we can

- get some revenues...
- Hello.

Mother? Ha, ha.

Mother. Ha, ha.

Ah.

What's going on?

Jackie just wanted to come to
the status meetings

to keep up on the campaign.

- You said yes?
- I didn't say anything.

I just said when we were
having the meetings.

Well, tell her she can't.
She doesn't belong here.

No.

I'd love to, Peter,
but she won't listen to me.

Okay, you'll find the polling results
on page five.

Oh, is the type too small for you,
Mrs. Florrick?

No, no, this is perfect. Thank you.

Everybody, please welcome Jackie.

She'll be joining us when she can
at our status meetings.

Oh, come on.
Please ignore me, please.

There's been a shift.

There was a micro-burst of sympathy
for Mrs. Florrick,

but here's the interesting thing.

That sympathy has turned into
sympathy for your client.

Good job. I thought he was gonna
jump down your throat.

It was your idea.

Okay, so we keep up the pressure.

One thing I'd like to point out.

The pack leader on the jury,
Juror Number 3, the psychiatrist,

is still showing micro-bursts
of contempt toward Mr. Bauer.

So we've got a biased judge
and a biased jury.

So we need to have someone
for them to be biased against.

Kalinda, any other suspects?

Actually, I need to ask
my supervisor.

May I talk to you a minute?

I have to catch a plane.

Some last-minute details
on the Super PAC.

- We'll talk later?
- No, now.

Why is Blake investigating us?

Us?

My lawyers, my equity partners.

Because I needed to know
who I was joining.

No.

Blake was investigating
even after you joined.

What's going on, partner?

What's going on is
information retrieval, that's all.

I need information.
Some of it relevant, some of it not.

- I only know if something is relevant...
- Stop

slinging the New Age speak.

I will ask him to stop investigating.

Good.

And Kalinda is to be given
a salary bump above Blake's.

He is not her supervisor.

No.

Then we got a problem

because this is the deal.

Either we bump Kalinda's salary
above Blake's

or the waters won't be calmed.

This is feeling a bit like Groundhog Day.
Are you gonna apologize again?

We've been played.

We had the superior numbers,
we had the votes.

And Bond played us
against each other.

You thought I was plotting against you.
I wasn't.

That's why you're leaving.

We had this conversation already.
We agreed I wasn't leaving.

Yes, but we were both lying.

I'm listening.

I don't like being played.

So I suggest we do the same to Bond.

- How?
- In two months' time,

he's bringing in a Super PAC
as a client.

A hundred million dollars.

At that point, Bond intends to
vote you out.

Then he'll have the superior numbers
and he'll isolate me.

I say we convince him
I'm still on board for that plan.

- And in the meantime...
- We move against him.

Okay.

Okay.

Let's not bicker anymore.

The problem is there's nobody else.

There's no other way
to get the robbery in.

And there's no suspects.
There's no wife, no descendents,

no one else cut out of the will.

Then maybe he did it.

When did you stop being helpful?

Fifty thousand dollar a year bump.

And as a thank-you for
your years of continued service,

a membership to
Saint Andrews Country Club.

- Just what I wanted.
- You'll fit right in.

I've got your back, Kalinda.

Just make sure you got mine.

I always have.

And I always will.

Oh, um...

Tell Alicia to target the manager.

The manager Kuney? Why?

His religion.

Like you said, we need to give the jury
someone else to be biased against.

Oh, my goodness.

Ha, ha, you startled me.

Eli said you were out.
What are you doing here?

- I wanna talk to you.
- Really? Why?

Mom, you know I love you.

Oh.

You're a good son.

But I need you to stop coming
to the status meetings.

Oh?

I need to do this on my own.

Oh, of course.

- I'm sorry.
- No. No, no.

Please don't apologize.

I just want you to understand

that I...

I need to do this on my own.

Is it still all right if I phone
for updates?

Only if it's all right with Eli.

Of course.

Good. Thank you.

I'm tempted,

but I need assurances
about the partner track.

I don't wanna be
summarily fired again.

I, um...

Things have changed, Cary.

What's changed?
My agreeing to join you?

No, it's just, um,
we're a bit more in flux.

Oh, yes, "flux."
That's one of those great words

that covers a whole boatload of sins.

Come back to us.

Cary, come back to us.

We made a mistake.

We need you.

- At Lockhart, Gardner?
- Yes.

I don't think so. I'm having
too much fun where I am.

You sure?

What's Alicia's salary?

I don't know exactly,
but I'm sure you can imagine.

Double it and put me in above her,
and then I'll come back.

- You've grown up.
- Oh, yeah, I'm a big boy.

It's good to talk to you.

Good morning.

I hope everybody had a good evening.

Uh, Counselor,
are you ready for cross?

Yes, Your Honor.
All laced up and ready to go.

Mr. Kuney,

you talked about discussing
many things with the victim.

What were they?

Uh, what did I discuss?

I don't know.
What do managers discuss

- with their tenants?
- I don't know.

- Your religion?
- Objection, Your Honor.

I'm just trying to establish Mr. Kuney's
familiarity with the victim.

I'll allow it.

Did you argue about your religion
with Mr. Bauer?

Well, I wouldn't say "argue."
We had, uh,

spirited discussions.

- About your Scientology?
- Yes.

He thought I was proselytising.

I thought I was just discussing

the closed-mindedness of some
countries like Germany and France

who refuse to recognize Scientology
as a religion.

And during these
spirited discussions,

did you discuss Scientology's
ambivalence towards psychiatry?

- Objection, Your Honor.
- Sustained.

When the two of you argued...

Excuse me, discussed these issues,

did you do it,
according to your neighbors,

- with raised voices?
- Objection, Your Honor.

Sustained.

You have keys to Mr. Bauer's
apartment, don't you, Mr. Kuney?

Yes.

And you are the only one
who claimed to see a fight

- between our client and his father.
- Objection.

Sustained. That's enough, counselor.

No further questions, Your Honor.

How you doing?

All right, hold on, Tom.

Was there something
that you needed?

Hey!

What?

Are you nuts? That's mine.

- Get out.
- You are making one big mistake.

Will you escort Mr. Boras out?
Don't forget your coat.

Hello? Oh, yes, Adam.

Oh. Oh, that's awful.

Oh, you better do it if that's what...
If that's what Eli wants.

The third quarter has improved.

Although I think there still needs
to be some belt-tightening.

We still have some
overcharges in Litigation.

- Hello, Diane.
- Derrick.

- It's good to have you back.
- It's good to be back.

Anyway, we were discussing
the third quarter results.

Uh, they're not as dire
as anticipated,

but, uh, we still have some
overcharges in Litigation.

This would be the focus of what we're
trying to get accomplished next year.

You seem happy.

Yeah, I guess I am.

Made peace with yourself?

The jury's in.

You're kidding. They just went out.

Yeah, 20 minutes.
It should be interesting.

It's not guilty.

Are you sure?

Micro-bursts of calm for Mr. Bauer.

Good job.

Members of the jury,
have you reached a verdict?

We have, Your Honor.

On the charge of first-degree murder,
we find the defendant guilty.

- Wait, you...
- Don't say a thing. We'll appeal.

Would the defense like to poll the jury?

Yes, we would, Your Honor.

Sir? Excuse me.
I was with the defense.

Yes, I recognize you.

You don't have to answer
my questions,

but it helps us learn for the future.

No, I'll answer your questions.

It was just such a quick verdict.

Yes, there were, uh,
no disagreements.

I see. And what decided it for you?

- What did?
- Yes. I mean,

obviously you didn't take the manager's
testimony seriously.

And the judge, did you believe
he was biased?

Oh, sure.

You did? But that didn't enter
into your decision?

No.

Why not?

I don't know. It didn't seem to matter.

Then what did matter?

He did it.

I hope that helps.

Have a good evening.
