1
00:00:01,653 --> 00:00:02,741
Previously on "All Rise"...
2
00:00:02,785 --> 00:00:06,310
I kissed Luke. I have
been trying to tell you.
3
00:00:06,354 --> 00:00:07,616
Do you want to be with Luke?
4
00:00:07,659 --> 00:00:09,792
I care for both of them,
and trying to choose,
5
00:00:09,835 --> 00:00:11,402
I feel like I just... I can't.
6
00:00:11,446 --> 00:00:13,187
Amy kicked me out of
the house. Thank you.
7
00:00:13,230 --> 00:00:14,947
Get mad at those
thin little lips of yours.
8
00:00:14,971 --> 00:00:16,818
You need to come
clean about your marriage.
9
00:00:16,842 --> 00:00:18,801
Collier, I've fallen
in love with someone.
10
00:00:18,844 --> 00:00:20,368
I'm gonna have to
tell him about us.
11
00:00:20,411 --> 00:00:22,065
Sorry. Sara, I have to go.
12
00:00:22,109 --> 00:00:23,675
Oh... Nikki?
13
00:00:23,719 --> 00:00:27,462
I heard them get into
an... altercation.
14
00:00:27,505 --> 00:00:29,638
I've known Whitney for years.
15
00:00:29,681 --> 00:00:30,832
It's not
what I thought.
16
00:00:30,856 --> 00:00:32,249
I'm sorry I disturbed you.
17
00:00:32,293 --> 00:00:34,773
Ms. Castillo... Sara, hold on.
18
00:00:34,817 --> 00:00:35,924
What do you know about McCarthy
19
00:00:35,948 --> 00:00:37,689
fabricating witness statements?
20
00:00:37,733 --> 00:00:39,648
Watkins, you signed a
statement for McCarthy
21
00:00:39,691 --> 00:00:40,973
when we were fresh
out of the academy.
22
00:00:40,997 --> 00:00:41,998
You don't remember?
23
00:00:51,921 --> 00:00:53,444
This is how mornings
should start.
24
00:00:53,488 --> 00:00:55,316
You can't possibly
need all this.
25
00:00:55,359 --> 00:00:56,858
If this lawyering
thing doesn't work out,
26
00:00:56,882 --> 00:00:58,841
you would make an
excellent pack mule.
27
00:00:58,884 --> 00:01:00,340
The least I can do for letting
me stay in your guest house.
28
00:01:00,364 --> 00:01:01,800
Amy ready to forgive you yet?
29
00:01:01,844 --> 00:01:03,561
Last time she said my name,
she didn't use any expletives.
30
00:01:03,585 --> 00:01:05,152
You ready for today?
31
00:01:05,195 --> 00:01:07,545
How do you get ready to have
another judge as a defendant?
32
00:01:07,589 --> 00:01:09,417
- It feels wrong.
- Not just any judge...
33
00:01:09,460 --> 00:01:11,114
Prudence Jenkins is a legend.
34
00:01:11,158 --> 00:01:13,160
I saw her on the bench
when I was in college.
35
00:01:13,203 --> 00:01:15,379
It made me realize
I could bea judge.
36
00:01:15,423 --> 00:01:17,401
But when they filed those
bribery charges against her...
37
00:01:17,425 --> 00:01:20,036
Bomb went off. I am just
getting back to work.
38
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,691
Why can't I get any low-grade
felonies?
39
00:01:22,734 --> 00:01:24,214
How's the McCarthy case going?
40
00:01:24,258 --> 00:01:25,563
So much work.
41
00:01:25,607 --> 00:01:27,391
I'm just worried about
what judge we get.
42
00:01:27,435 --> 00:01:29,263
Mm. And Laski's court
is opening back up.
43
00:01:29,306 --> 00:01:31,091
- What?!
44
00:01:31,134 --> 00:01:32,570
What? You knew that.
45
00:01:32,614 --> 00:01:34,398
Is this the face of
someone who knew that?
46
00:01:34,442 --> 00:01:36,072
No, it's the face of someone
who's leaving right now.
47
00:01:36,096 --> 00:01:38,881
Sherri, do you always
get here this early?
48
00:01:38,924 --> 00:01:41,536
I get here before you. It's
the natural order of things.
49
00:01:41,579 --> 00:01:43,296
You do not have an appointment.
I was helping with her bags.
50
00:01:43,320 --> 00:01:44,452
He was just leaving.
51
00:01:44,495 --> 00:01:46,715
Don't worry. You
will not get Laski.
52
00:01:46,758 --> 00:01:48,586
If I do, I'm gonna
have to remove him.
53
00:01:48,630 --> 00:01:50,066
Do not paper Laski!
54
00:01:50,110 --> 00:01:50,849
He'll hold it against
everyone in your office.
55
00:01:52,112 --> 00:01:53,417
Go good.
56
00:01:53,461 --> 00:01:55,245
Go good. Sherri,
always a pleasure.
57
00:01:58,074 --> 00:01:59,815
You do go home, right?
58
00:02:05,081 --> 00:02:06,604
Good morning.
59
00:02:06,648 --> 00:02:08,389
Good morning!
60
00:02:08,432 --> 00:02:11,305
Hi. How you holding
up? Oh, I'm fine.
61
00:02:11,348 --> 00:02:13,698
Things are weird
between Benner and me,
62
00:02:13,742 --> 00:02:15,222
but... I'm fine.
63
00:02:15,265 --> 00:02:17,049
I'm sure you're both
worried about Nikki.
64
00:02:17,093 --> 00:02:18,897
When kids are endangered
by their parent, it...
65
00:02:18,921 --> 00:02:21,141
No, it is a beautiful morning,
66
00:02:21,184 --> 00:02:23,795
and I am trying to
count my blessings.
67
00:02:23,839 --> 00:02:25,797
Absolutely. Stay positive.
68
00:02:25,841 --> 00:02:28,583
Distract me. Have you
heard from Joaquin?
69
00:02:28,626 --> 00:02:30,672
Radio silence. Do you
want to hear from Joaquin?
70
00:02:30,715 --> 00:02:32,543
- Hey, Sara.
- Yeah.
71
00:02:32,587 --> 00:02:34,154
- Emily.
- Good morning.
72
00:02:34,197 --> 00:02:36,199
Hey, Luke. Good to see
you in the morning.
73
00:02:36,243 --> 00:02:38,201
I mean, not... not like that.
74
00:02:38,245 --> 00:02:38,984
I just mean because
our schedules,
75
00:02:39,028 --> 00:02:40,769
we don't... uh...
76
00:02:41,987 --> 00:02:43,424
I am late for work.
77
00:02:43,467 --> 00:02:44,468
Okay.
78
00:02:44,512 --> 00:02:47,254
Bye.
79
00:02:54,217 --> 00:02:56,393
- I have no words.
80
00:02:58,178 --> 00:03:00,223
- There she is.
- There who is?
81
00:03:00,267 --> 00:03:03,705
Judge Jenkins. She's even
more impressive in person.
82
00:03:03,748 --> 00:03:06,490
Uh-oh. Looks like
she's fighting with her lawyer.
83
00:03:06,534 --> 00:03:08,971
Oh, I know her
lawyer. He's a bully.
84
00:03:09,014 --> 00:03:11,191
Whoa. Her lawyer is crying.
85
00:03:11,234 --> 00:03:12,670
The bully is crying?
86
00:03:12,714 --> 00:03:15,195
Oh. Now her lawyer is leaving.
87
00:03:15,238 --> 00:03:16,196
PRUDENCE? I can't believe it!
88
00:03:16,239 --> 00:03:18,023
Carmichael!
89
00:03:19,895 --> 00:03:23,594
All rise.
90
00:03:23,638 --> 00:03:25,117
Superior Court is
now in session.
91
00:03:25,161 --> 00:03:27,119
The Honorable Judge Lola
Carmichael is presiding.
92
00:03:27,163 --> 00:03:28,382
You may be seated.
93
00:03:28,425 --> 00:03:30,253
Good morning.
94
00:03:30,297 --> 00:03:32,908
Looks like I missed out
on all the excitement.
95
00:03:32,951 --> 00:03:36,346
Calling the matter of
People v. Prudence Jenkins,
96
00:03:36,390 --> 00:03:38,392
receiving a bribe while
a public official.
97
00:03:38,435 --> 00:03:40,045
Counsel, your appearances.
98
00:03:40,089 --> 00:03:42,134
Prudence Jenkins, Your Honor.
99
00:03:42,178 --> 00:03:43,614
Clayton Berger for the People.
100
00:03:43,658 --> 00:03:46,051
Uh, Judge Jenkins, I see
your attorney is not present.
101
00:03:46,095 --> 00:03:48,532
Will you be requesting
a continuance?
102
00:03:48,576 --> 00:03:49,751
Not at this time, Your Honor.
103
00:03:49,794 --> 00:03:52,014
Uh, um... you won't?
104
00:03:52,057 --> 00:03:54,669
It is unorthodox, but
I've decided it's best
105
00:03:54,712 --> 00:03:56,540
that I represent myself.
106
00:03:56,584 --> 00:04:00,718
These bribery charges are
an attack on my integrity,
107
00:04:00,762 --> 00:04:02,111
my entire career.
108
00:04:02,154 --> 00:04:05,854
I can't leave my fate
in someone else's hands.
109
00:04:05,897 --> 00:04:08,291
I already have the
waiver filled out.
110
00:04:08,335 --> 00:04:10,902
I see. Then the procedure is to
111
00:04:10,946 --> 00:04:13,253
go over the
disadvantages verbally.
112
00:04:13,296 --> 00:04:16,386
"Disadvantages to include
113
00:04:16,430 --> 00:04:20,042
"but are not limited
to the following...
114
00:04:20,085 --> 00:04:21,609
If I had a lawyer... ".
115
00:04:21,652 --> 00:04:24,699
"That lawyer would be able
to investigate my case"
116
00:04:24,742 --> 00:04:28,224
23 years on the bench and
you'll have it memorized, too.
117
00:04:28,268 --> 00:04:29,593
You'll also know when
extraordinary measures
118
00:04:29,617 --> 00:04:32,184
are needed to defend yourself.
119
00:04:32,228 --> 00:04:33,795
Then you understand.
120
00:04:33,838 --> 00:04:36,319
I hereby state that I
have read the waiver,
121
00:04:36,363 --> 00:04:37,712
I understand the waiver,
122
00:04:37,755 --> 00:04:41,933
and I have no questions
about the waiver.
123
00:04:41,977 --> 00:04:44,371
- I know what I'm doing.
- You'll need to.
124
00:04:50,377 --> 00:04:52,737
Captioned by Los Angeles
Distribution and Broadcasting, Inc.
125
00:04:58,820 --> 00:05:00,648
Always hard at work.
Good for you, Sam.
126
00:05:00,691 --> 00:05:01,712
Case isn't going to prep itself.
127
00:05:01,736 --> 00:05:03,303
Luke. My office.
128
00:05:03,346 --> 00:05:04,478
- On the way.
- Choi.
129
00:05:04,521 --> 00:05:06,349
Morning. Hey, you got a minute?
130
00:05:06,393 --> 00:05:08,656
I could use your insight on
a little judicial strategy.
131
00:05:08,699 --> 00:05:10,329
McCarthy case? Yeah, I
just thought that the...
132
00:05:10,353 --> 00:05:12,268
Are we securely in your office?
133
00:05:12,312 --> 00:05:13,965
- No.
- Can anyone hear us
134
00:05:14,009 --> 00:05:15,116
in this location who
isn't supposed to know
135
00:05:15,140 --> 00:05:16,751
the highly classified
information
136
00:05:16,794 --> 00:05:19,014
that makes up your
top priority case?
137
00:05:19,057 --> 00:05:21,016
Yeah. Then I don't have
time to talk strategy.
138
00:05:21,059 --> 00:05:22,844
But... because
it's for this case,
139
00:05:22,887 --> 00:05:24,324
I will make time, later.
140
00:05:29,807 --> 00:05:31,853
Was that all for my benefit?
141
00:05:31,896 --> 00:05:34,595
Kind of. It's your
lucky morning.
142
00:05:34,638 --> 00:05:37,380
A convicted murderer is
eligible for release.
143
00:05:37,424 --> 00:05:39,295
You'll review the file,
go to the hearing,
144
00:05:39,339 --> 00:05:40,751
and be prepared to
make a recommendation
145
00:05:40,775 --> 00:05:42,187
- to the parole board.
- A lifer hearing.
146
00:05:42,211 --> 00:05:43,821
That's... That's
above my pay grade.
147
00:05:43,865 --> 00:05:45,388
Well, buckle in. There's more.
148
00:05:45,432 --> 00:05:47,390
The recommendation is your call.
149
00:05:47,434 --> 00:05:49,610
- But...
- Meet Shayne Monroe.
150
00:05:49,653 --> 00:05:51,612
He's been in prison for 25 years
151
00:05:51,655 --> 00:05:54,223
for killing his buddy,
Cyrus Wilkinson.
152
00:05:54,266 --> 00:05:55,586
Shayne and Cyrus
were both members
153
00:05:55,616 --> 00:05:57,748
of the Hazor Brigade, a
white supremacist militia.
154
00:05:57,792 --> 00:05:59,924
Militia?
Shayne mistakenly thought
155
00:05:59,968 --> 00:06:02,579
that Cyrus was an FBI
informant, so he killed him.
156
00:06:02,623 --> 00:06:05,016
Is there any particular
reason you chose a Black man
157
00:06:05,060 --> 00:06:07,279
to attend the parole hearing
for a white supremacist?
158
00:06:07,323 --> 00:06:08,933
I do have a particular reason.
159
00:06:08,977 --> 00:06:10,282
The McCarthy case is heating up,
160
00:06:10,326 --> 00:06:11,588
and you're a potential witness.
161
00:06:11,632 --> 00:06:12,913
That means you have
to be firewalled.
162
00:06:12,937 --> 00:06:14,737
I thought your advocacy
of restorative justice
163
00:06:14,765 --> 00:06:16,637
might lead you
somewhere interesting.
164
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,553
You'll have the authority
to make the recommendation
165
00:06:19,596 --> 00:06:21,424
you feel is appropriate,
and I'll be there.
166
00:06:22,817 --> 00:06:24,732
You're welcome.
167
00:06:39,355 --> 00:06:41,444
We get the wrong judge,
168
00:06:41,488 --> 00:06:42,769
we might as well
withdraw the charges,
169
00:06:42,793 --> 00:06:44,055
scrap the whole thing.
170
00:06:44,099 --> 00:06:45,492
And Laski's court
just opened up.
171
00:06:45,535 --> 00:06:47,078
- How does everyone know that?
- It's not a secret.
172
00:06:47,102 --> 00:06:49,017
- Laski hates me.
- Also not a secret.
173
00:06:49,060 --> 00:06:50,584
Close call on an objection,
174
00:06:50,627 --> 00:06:53,891
Laski's love of watching me
squirm cannot be a factor.
175
00:06:53,935 --> 00:06:55,893
Might have to go
nuclear, paper him.
176
00:06:55,937 --> 00:06:57,305
Requesting a new judge
is kind of risky.
177
00:06:57,329 --> 00:06:58,568
Each side only gets
one chance to do that.
178
00:06:58,592 --> 00:07:00,420
I know, it's extreme,
but I... I'm...
179
00:07:00,463 --> 00:07:02,422
Hey, we got this. We got this.
180
00:07:02,465 --> 00:07:03,858
High five.
181
00:07:03,901 --> 00:07:05,163
- Oh... okay.
- Yep.
182
00:07:05,207 --> 00:07:06,730
Okay.
183
00:07:09,559 --> 00:07:12,040
Please state your name and
occupation for the record.
184
00:07:12,083 --> 00:07:13,737
Sylvia Arthur. I'm the director
185
00:07:13,781 --> 00:07:15,696
of the nonprofit Rainbow Doors.
186
00:07:15,739 --> 00:07:19,090
On December 3, 2015, did
your organization receive
187
00:07:19,134 --> 00:07:20,701
a donation from Andre Buckingham
188
00:07:20,744 --> 00:07:22,703
in the amount of $50,000?
189
00:07:22,746 --> 00:07:23,921
- It did.
- Your Honor,
190
00:07:23,965 --> 00:07:25,445
I ask that the Court take notice
191
00:07:25,488 --> 00:07:27,925
that this was the day
before Judge Jenkins
192
00:07:27,969 --> 00:07:29,329
delivered her "not
guilty" verdict.
193
00:07:29,361 --> 00:07:32,103
How much is your
average donation?
194
00:07:32,147 --> 00:07:34,454
- $40.
- Ms. Arthur,
195
00:07:34,497 --> 00:07:36,891
did you know who
Andre Buckingham was
196
00:07:36,934 --> 00:07:38,458
before that donation was made?
197
00:07:38,501 --> 00:07:42,244
No. Afterwards, I learned he
is a lawyer in Santa Barbara
198
00:07:42,287 --> 00:07:44,638
but nothing from
our donor files.
199
00:07:44,681 --> 00:07:46,509
No further questions,
Your Honor.
200
00:07:46,553 --> 00:07:48,182
Care to cross-examine
the witness, Your Hon.
201
00:07:48,206 --> 00:07:50,861
Judge Jenkins?
202
00:07:50,905 --> 00:07:52,863
Thank you, Your Honor.
203
00:07:52,907 --> 00:07:54,735
Good afternoon, Ms. Arthur.
204
00:07:54,778 --> 00:07:57,128
As director of Rainbow Doors,
205
00:07:57,172 --> 00:07:59,043
how familiar are
you with its donors?
206
00:07:59,087 --> 00:08:00,784
I know many of them personally,
207
00:08:00,828 --> 00:08:02,438
some I even consider friends.
208
00:08:02,482 --> 00:08:04,919
- Do you know every donor?
- No.
209
00:08:04,962 --> 00:08:06,766
You testified that you
were surprised to receive
210
00:08:06,790 --> 00:08:09,010
a donation from Andre Buckingham
211
00:08:09,053 --> 00:08:12,230
because he'd never given
to Rainbow Doors before.
212
00:08:12,274 --> 00:08:15,538
How many donors give for
the first time annually?
213
00:08:15,582 --> 00:08:18,585
Many. Each year our goal
214
00:08:18,628 --> 00:08:20,543
is for 10% to be
first-time donors.
215
00:08:20,587 --> 00:08:22,937
When Mr. Buckingham
made his donation,
216
00:08:22,980 --> 00:08:25,156
did he in any way mention me
217
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,376
or that his client was
appearing in my courtroom?
218
00:08:27,419 --> 00:08:28,899
- He did not.
- Have there ever been
219
00:08:28,943 --> 00:08:31,075
first-time donors who
you later found out
220
00:08:31,119 --> 00:08:33,425
had heard about the
organization from me?
221
00:08:33,469 --> 00:08:34,905
Oh, yes. Many times.
222
00:08:34,949 --> 00:08:37,299
The money raised through
your network has enabled us
223
00:08:37,342 --> 00:08:40,171
to give a lot of queer
homeless kids a place to stay.
224
00:08:40,215 --> 00:08:42,565
Did Mr. Buckingham ever tell you
225
00:08:42,609 --> 00:08:46,047
that he was donating
because your organization
226
00:08:46,090 --> 00:08:48,092
was brought to his
attention by me? Objection.
227
00:08:48,136 --> 00:08:49,703
- Overruled.
- Sustained.
228
00:08:49,746 --> 00:08:53,663
Apologies, Your Honor.
229
00:08:53,707 --> 00:08:56,231
Force of habit. I
meant no disrespect.
230
00:08:56,274 --> 00:08:59,147
Apology accepted,
but I will handle
231
00:08:59,190 --> 00:09:00,844
the objections in my courtroom.
232
00:09:00,888 --> 00:09:02,803
I think that would be best.
233
00:09:02,846 --> 00:09:04,500
No further questions.
234
00:09:04,544 --> 00:09:06,589
You may step down.
235
00:09:13,248 --> 00:09:15,032
Well, you can remind Deputy Lori
236
00:09:15,076 --> 00:09:16,860
that his testimony
ensures that McCarthy
237
00:09:16,904 --> 00:09:19,210
won't be in a
position to retaliate.
238
00:09:19,254 --> 00:09:21,778
No, it's not the same thing.
239
00:09:21,822 --> 00:09:24,738
Cold feet is not a negotiating
position for your client.
240
00:09:24,781 --> 00:09:26,653
No, do not put me... on hold.
241
00:09:26,696 --> 00:09:29,220
You always had a
way with people.
242
00:09:29,264 --> 00:09:31,353
I swear, this case,
it's like if I'm not
243
00:09:31,396 --> 00:09:34,138
convincing someone to testify,
I'm explaining someone's
244
00:09:34,182 --> 00:09:36,010
immunity deal for
the hundredth time.
245
00:09:36,053 --> 00:09:38,969
At least I managed to
convince Bravo to let me
246
00:09:39,013 --> 00:09:41,319
paper Laski if Judge Benner
assigns him to the case.
247
00:09:41,363 --> 00:09:43,583
- You did not.
- I did.
248
00:09:43,626 --> 00:09:45,802
It's... really good to see you.
249
00:09:45,846 --> 00:09:47,674
You, too.
250
00:09:47,717 --> 00:09:48,979
There are things to say.
251
00:09:49,023 --> 00:09:50,633
Yeah. There are.
252
00:09:50,677 --> 00:09:52,113
Uh...
253
00:09:52,156 --> 00:09:54,985
I-I-I know you're
swamped, so I was thinking
254
00:09:55,029 --> 00:09:57,988
a hike this weekend to
talk things through?
255
00:09:58,032 --> 00:10:00,121
I like that thinking.Good.
256
00:10:00,164 --> 00:10:02,210
Sorry for the hold-up.
How can I help?
257
00:10:02,253 --> 00:10:04,342
Uh...
258
00:10:04,386 --> 00:10:05,866
Mr. Callan? Hello?
259
00:10:05,909 --> 00:10:07,694
Yeah.
260
00:10:07,737 --> 00:10:08,956
One down.
261
00:10:08,999 --> 00:10:10,871
Don't put me on
hold a...
262
00:10:10,914 --> 00:10:12,786
Hey. High five.
263
00:10:27,278 --> 00:10:30,934
Uh, Luke Watkins, D.A.'s office?
264
00:10:30,978 --> 00:10:32,588
So what's this all about?
265
00:10:32,632 --> 00:10:34,808
The D.A.'s office can
weigh in on whether or not
266
00:10:34,851 --> 00:10:36,679
the parole board should
grant someone parole.
267
00:10:36,723 --> 00:10:39,029
Why are you here? The
answer should be obvious.
268
00:10:39,073 --> 00:10:40,093
I want to know about
Shayne's victim.
269
00:10:40,117 --> 00:10:42,511
Your brother, Cyrus.
270
00:10:42,554 --> 00:10:44,600
Look, I don't know
what you heard,
271
00:10:44,644 --> 00:10:47,255
but Cyrus wasn't like those
other guys in the militia.
272
00:10:47,298 --> 00:10:50,345
He wasn't a killer,
like Shayne Monroe.
273
00:10:50,388 --> 00:10:52,652
- What was he like?
- He was a normal kid.
274
00:10:54,436 --> 00:10:56,830
Liked working on cars.
275
00:10:56,873 --> 00:10:59,354
He
was stubborn as hell.
276
00:11:01,530 --> 00:11:04,185
But also funny, really funny.
277
00:11:04,228 --> 00:11:06,927
After he was killed,
my mom never really
278
00:11:06,970 --> 00:11:09,712
got her laugh back.
279
00:11:09,756 --> 00:11:12,584
Does the parole board
care about that?
280
00:11:12,628 --> 00:11:14,388
The parole board's main
concern is whether or not.
281
00:11:14,412 --> 00:11:16,153
Shayne will be a danger
to the community.
282
00:11:16,197 --> 00:11:18,025
Cyrus wasn't a danger
to the community.
283
00:11:18,068 --> 00:11:20,854
He didn't believe in that
white supremacist stuff.
284
00:11:20,897 --> 00:11:23,552
He was a good kid.
285
00:11:23,595 --> 00:11:25,815
If Cyrus never got
a second chance,
286
00:11:25,859 --> 00:11:28,731
why should Shayne Monroe
ever get out of prison?
287
00:11:28,775 --> 00:11:31,473
I really hope you're
the kind of man
288
00:11:31,516 --> 00:11:33,257
who'll keep him there.
289
00:11:37,435 --> 00:11:39,307
I wrote a paper about
Judge Jenkins in college,
290
00:11:39,350 --> 00:11:40,588
and one of my
professors knew her.
291
00:11:40,612 --> 00:11:44,094
She introduced us, and
we just... we clicked.
292
00:11:44,138 --> 00:11:46,618
How long were you Judge
Jenkins' judicial assistant?
293
00:11:46,662 --> 00:11:50,231
Just four years. I thought I
was gonna be there a lot longer.
294
00:11:50,274 --> 00:11:52,799
How would you describe
the relationship between.
295
00:11:52,842 --> 00:11:55,236
Judge Jenkins and the
lawyer Andre Buckingham?
296
00:11:55,279 --> 00:11:57,281
Objection, Your Honor.
Lacks foundation.
297
00:11:57,325 --> 00:11:59,893
Sustained. Mr. Berger,
care to try again?
298
00:11:59,936 --> 00:12:02,939
What, if anything, did you see
299
00:12:02,983 --> 00:12:06,029
between the defendant and
attorney Andre Buckingham?
300
00:12:06,073 --> 00:12:08,162
They were professional at first,
301
00:12:08,205 --> 00:12:09,729
then he started crossing lines,
302
00:12:09,772 --> 00:12:11,382
and I just never understood
303
00:12:11,426 --> 00:12:12,993
why the judge didn't stop him.
304
00:12:13,036 --> 00:12:14,777
- Like what?
- He would tell her that
305
00:12:14,821 --> 00:12:16,605
he had tickets to an
event or something,
306
00:12:16,648 --> 00:12:20,000
at Will Call under his name
if she wanted them. It just...
307
00:12:20,043 --> 00:12:22,176
It flew in the face of all of
308
00:12:22,219 --> 00:12:23,612
the amazing work
that she'd done.
309
00:12:23,655 --> 00:12:25,396
Did you overhear a conversation
310
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,268
between Judge Jenkins
and Mr. Buckingham
311
00:12:27,311 --> 00:12:30,097
in December of 2015
that troubled you?
312
00:12:30,140 --> 00:12:31,533
Yes.
313
00:12:31,576 --> 00:12:33,404
They were in the
judge's chambers,
314
00:12:33,448 --> 00:12:35,406
and I heard him talking
about his client
315
00:12:35,450 --> 00:12:37,582
who was on trial for
money laundering.
316
00:12:37,626 --> 00:12:39,454
I-I thought she should
have kicked him out,
317
00:12:39,497 --> 00:12:41,804
- because that is so unethical.
- Objection. Hearsay.
318
00:12:41,848 --> 00:12:44,459
It informs the defendant's
statement, Your Honor.
319
00:12:44,502 --> 00:12:46,809
Overruled, but... Your
Honor, with all due respect,
320
00:12:46,853 --> 00:12:48,680
asking a witness about
what a third party said
321
00:12:48,724 --> 00:12:50,682
is textbook hearsay.
322
00:12:50,726 --> 00:12:54,034
Judge Jenkins, I would advise
against interrupting me.
323
00:12:54,077 --> 00:12:55,687
If you hadn't, I could have
324
00:12:55,731 --> 00:12:57,472
finished instructing the witness
325
00:12:57,515 --> 00:12:59,822
to stick to the actions
made by the defendant.
326
00:12:59,866 --> 00:13:01,781
You.
327
00:13:01,824 --> 00:13:03,913
Well, all she said was,
"You shouldn't be here,"
328
00:13:03,957 --> 00:13:05,785
because they were in
the middle of the trial.
329
00:13:05,828 --> 00:13:08,135
- Can I say that?
- I will allow it. Thank you.
330
00:13:11,355 --> 00:13:13,195
Judge Jenkins, would you
like to cross-examine?
331
00:13:15,490 --> 00:13:18,188
Ms. Carlile, the tickets
that Mr. Buckingham
332
00:13:18,232 --> 00:13:19,973
allegedly left for
me at will call,
333
00:13:20,016 --> 00:13:21,583
did you ever see
me pick them up?
334
00:13:21,626 --> 00:13:24,847
- No.
- Do you know if,
335
00:13:24,891 --> 00:13:26,588
for example, I paid for them,
336
00:13:26,631 --> 00:13:28,242
voiding their status as gifts?
337
00:13:28,285 --> 00:13:31,506
- Uh, no.
- I see.
338
00:13:31,549 --> 00:13:33,551
Please tell the Court
why I fired you.
339
00:13:33,595 --> 00:13:36,119
You know that was a mistake.
340
00:13:36,163 --> 00:13:38,469
Ms. Carlile, please,
just answer the question.
341
00:13:38,513 --> 00:13:40,341
Uh, sorry, Your Honor.
342
00:13:40,384 --> 00:13:42,691
I made one scheduling
mistake, and I apologized.
343
00:13:42,734 --> 00:13:44,606
And did that one
scheduling error
344
00:13:44,649 --> 00:13:46,695
fit within a pattern of mistakes
345
00:13:46,738 --> 00:13:49,219
and overlooked details? I
wouldn't call it a pattern.
346
00:13:49,263 --> 00:13:50,893
And what was the immediate
effect of that error?
347
00:13:50,917 --> 00:13:52,396
You were a few minutes late.
348
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,398
Isn't it true that I, the judge,
349
00:13:54,442 --> 00:13:55,965
only showed up at that trial
350
00:13:56,009 --> 00:13:57,116
because the bailiff
came to get me?
351
00:13:57,140 --> 00:13:58,489
Objection. Relevance.
352
00:13:58,533 --> 00:14:00,404
- Sustained.
- Overruled.
353
00:14:00,448 --> 00:14:02,319
Once was funny, Judge Jenkins.
354
00:14:02,363 --> 00:14:03,930
Won't happen again, Your Honor.
355
00:14:05,932 --> 00:14:08,499
Isn't it true that when
you were terminated,
356
00:14:08,543 --> 00:14:10,980
security had to remove
you from the building?
357
00:14:11,024 --> 00:14:13,330
- They escort everyone out.
- And while being removed,
358
00:14:13,374 --> 00:14:15,091
- you said...
- You knew what you were doing.
359
00:14:15,115 --> 00:14:16,527
"I know your secrets
and I will tell
360
00:14:16,551 --> 00:14:18,181
- anyone who listens"?
- I believed in you,
361
00:14:18,205 --> 00:14:19,704
- and you fired me!
- Answer the question.
362
00:14:19,728 --> 00:14:22,731
That's enough! Ms. Carlile,
did those events take place?
363
00:14:22,774 --> 00:14:23,863
Yes or no?
364
00:14:26,213 --> 00:14:27,562
Fine.
365
00:14:29,216 --> 00:14:30,608
- They happened.
- Thank you.
366
00:14:30,652 --> 00:14:33,829
I hope you lose everything,
and I get to watch!
367
00:14:33,873 --> 00:14:35,700
She is ruthless!
368
00:14:35,744 --> 00:14:39,617
Okay, everybody. Just
take a deep breath.
369
00:14:50,628 --> 00:14:52,500
I knew this case
was gonna test me,
370
00:14:52,543 --> 00:14:54,241
but not like this.
So many feelings.
371
00:14:54,284 --> 00:14:55,522
And I'm the one who
has to see through
372
00:14:55,546 --> 00:14:58,810
all the emotions to the
facts. Judge on trial?
373
00:14:58,854 --> 00:15:00,769
Believe this verdict
is gonna be remembered.
374
00:15:00,812 --> 00:15:02,684
- The pressure.
- Imagine losing your job
375
00:15:02,727 --> 00:15:04,512
over a mistake on a calendar.
376
00:15:04,555 --> 00:15:06,775
She was late for her own trial.
377
00:15:06,818 --> 00:15:08,100
Judge Jenkins must've
been mortified.
378
00:15:08,124 --> 00:15:10,039
But that's no reason
to fire the woman.
379
00:15:10,083 --> 00:15:12,203
Oh, you only say that because
you're not an assistant.
380
00:15:12,563 --> 00:15:14,217
Oh, I'm sorry.
381
00:15:14,261 --> 00:15:16,089
I'm sorry, Your
Honor. I didn't...
382
00:15:16,132 --> 00:15:18,787
Sherri, it's okay. I just
want to know what you meant.
383
00:15:18,830 --> 00:15:20,963
It's just...
384
00:15:21,007 --> 00:15:23,661
Judge Jenkins is a great
and powerful person,
385
00:15:23,705 --> 00:15:25,402
and she has had people
tell her how great
386
00:15:25,446 --> 00:15:27,361
and powerful she
is for a long time,
387
00:15:27,404 --> 00:15:28,928
and the thing you cannot do
388
00:15:28,971 --> 00:15:31,321
to powerful people
is embarrass them.
389
00:15:33,454 --> 00:15:35,021
Sherri.
390
00:15:36,892 --> 00:15:38,589
Yes, Your Honor.
391
00:15:38,633 --> 00:15:44,465
You are also a great
and powerful person.
392
00:15:44,508 --> 00:15:47,381
And your perspective
is valued around here.
393
00:15:47,424 --> 00:15:50,036
I appreciate that, Your Honor.
394
00:15:51,298 --> 00:15:52,516
Thank you.
395
00:15:59,045 --> 00:16:01,395
I want to get an idea
of who Mr. Monroe is,
396
00:16:01,438 --> 00:16:03,832
how he spends his
time in prison.
397
00:16:03,875 --> 00:16:06,226
We don't usually get
in-person visits.
398
00:16:06,269 --> 00:16:08,271
Most D.A.s just read the file.
399
00:16:08,315 --> 00:16:09,969
My office takes
parole seriously.
400
00:16:10,012 --> 00:16:11,883
I've only worked with
Shayne a few years,
401
00:16:11,927 --> 00:16:14,712
but he's been focused on
self-improvement the whole time.
402
00:16:14,756 --> 00:16:17,454
You're not going to get "danger
to the community" out of me.
403
00:16:19,413 --> 00:16:21,981
Does he have any
people on the outside?
404
00:16:22,024 --> 00:16:23,286
Family, friends, contacts?
405
00:16:23,330 --> 00:16:24,940
Prison does a pretty good job of
406
00:16:24,984 --> 00:16:26,681
destroying social bonds. Listen,
407
00:16:26,724 --> 00:16:29,162
I'm trying to approach
this with an open mind.
408
00:16:29,205 --> 00:16:31,860
If there's anything you
wish D.A.s would ask...
409
00:16:31,903 --> 00:16:35,037
I'll admit that when a lot
of guys see parole coming up,
410
00:16:35,081 --> 00:16:37,518
they start saying
all the right things,
411
00:16:37,561 --> 00:16:40,825
but it's all excuses and they
just talk about themselves.
412
00:16:40,869 --> 00:16:43,959
But with Shayne, he talks
about his victim all the time.
413
00:16:44,003 --> 00:16:46,440
By name. Cyrus Wilkinson.
414
00:16:46,483 --> 00:16:47,919
I feel like I know him.
415
00:16:50,444 --> 00:16:52,422
Please state your name and
occupation for the record.
416
00:16:52,446 --> 00:16:54,491
Andre Buckingham, lawyer.
417
00:16:54,535 --> 00:16:56,058
Mr. Buckingham, how
would you describe
418
00:16:56,102 --> 00:16:58,452
your professional relationship
with the defendant?
419
00:16:58,495 --> 00:17:00,193
Very successful.
420
00:17:00,236 --> 00:17:02,021
I could rely on her
to be a fair judge,
421
00:17:02,064 --> 00:17:03,935
and she could rely on
me for certain perks.
422
00:17:03,979 --> 00:17:07,374
Perks. Such as theater
tickets, fine wines?
423
00:17:07,417 --> 00:17:09,028
Objection, leading the witness.
424
00:17:09,071 --> 00:17:10,942
I'm establishing a
pattern of behavior.
425
00:17:10,986 --> 00:17:13,510
Then let your witness
testify. Sustained.
426
00:17:14,990 --> 00:17:17,123
What do you mean, perks?
427
00:17:17,166 --> 00:17:19,125
Tickets to sold-out shows.
428
00:17:19,168 --> 00:17:22,171
Once a client paid me with
a 2010 Château Margaux.
429
00:17:22,215 --> 00:17:23,390
I gave it to Judge Jenkins.
430
00:17:23,433 --> 00:17:24,671
Mr. Buckingham,
what was different
431
00:17:24,695 --> 00:17:27,437
about the case in
December of 2015?
432
00:17:27,481 --> 00:17:28,699
I couldn't win it.
433
00:17:28,743 --> 00:17:30,136
One of my most important clients
434
00:17:30,179 --> 00:17:31,615
was up for money laundering
435
00:17:31,659 --> 00:17:33,574
and the case against
him was rock solid.
436
00:17:33,617 --> 00:17:34,857
And what did you do about that?
437
00:17:36,272 --> 00:17:38,883
I realize now I made
a poor decision.
438
00:17:38,927 --> 00:17:40,494
I knew her weak spot.
439
00:17:40,537 --> 00:17:43,105
So I told her if my client
was found not guilty,
440
00:17:43,149 --> 00:17:45,549
a substantial donation could be
made to her favorite charity.
441
00:17:45,586 --> 00:17:48,110
And how did Judge
Jenkins respond
442
00:17:48,154 --> 00:17:49,894
when you presented this offer?
443
00:17:49,938 --> 00:17:51,722
All I had to do was
mention Rainbow Doors,
444
00:17:51,766 --> 00:17:52,854
and she was on board.
445
00:17:52,897 --> 00:17:54,943
No further questions,
Your Honor.
446
00:17:54,986 --> 00:17:56,597
Judge Jenkins?
447
00:17:58,686 --> 00:18:00,296
Mr. Buckingham.
448
00:18:00,340 --> 00:18:01,732
Did you recently plead guilty
449
00:18:01,776 --> 00:18:03,778
to multiple charges
of extortion?
450
00:18:03,821 --> 00:18:05,693
Regretfully, I did.
451
00:18:05,736 --> 00:18:08,783
Including an instance in which
you threatened baseless lawsuits
452
00:18:08,826 --> 00:18:11,438
- against a mother-and-daughter.
- Owned wellness center
453
00:18:11,481 --> 00:18:13,962
unless they paid
thousands of dollars?
454
00:18:14,005 --> 00:18:17,183
At the time, I believed I
was protecting consumers.
455
00:18:17,226 --> 00:18:19,141
Did you extort the
wellness center?
456
00:18:19,185 --> 00:18:21,361
The law says I did.
457
00:18:21,404 --> 00:18:23,798
Uh-huh. And after
you were charged,
458
00:18:23,841 --> 00:18:26,496
did you attempt to
negotiate a reduced sentence
459
00:18:26,540 --> 00:18:28,585
by claiming knowledge
of further crimes?
460
00:18:28,629 --> 00:18:30,239
You know how a plea deal works.
461
00:18:30,283 --> 00:18:31,980
And you know how to
weaponize the law.
462
00:18:32,023 --> 00:18:34,548
- Objection. Argumentative.
- Sustained.
463
00:18:34,591 --> 00:18:36,463
I want you to help
me understand.
464
00:18:36,506 --> 00:18:39,030
Isn't it true that
you used gifts
465
00:18:39,074 --> 00:18:40,597
and a substantial donation
466
00:18:40,641 --> 00:18:42,991
to try to curry
favor with a judge?
467
00:18:43,034 --> 00:18:44,862
I did not try. I successfully...
468
00:18:44,906 --> 00:18:46,516
Isn't it true that
you use your position
469
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,866
as a lawyer to threaten
and intimidate?
470
00:18:48,910 --> 00:18:51,608
I admit, I may have
erred in the past.
471
00:18:51,652 --> 00:18:53,195
And isn't it true that
you pride yourself
472
00:18:53,219 --> 00:18:55,873
on your ability to
outmaneuver people
473
00:18:55,917 --> 00:18:57,136
in negotiation?
474
00:18:57,179 --> 00:18:58,702
I was very good at my job.
475
00:18:58,746 --> 00:19:00,313
And isn't it then
reasonable to conclude
476
00:19:00,356 --> 00:19:02,750
that you are the kind of person
477
00:19:02,793 --> 00:19:06,275
who would say or do anything
to avoid the consequences
478
00:19:06,319 --> 00:19:08,669
- of your criminal behavior?
- Objection.
479
00:19:08,712 --> 00:19:11,062
- Overruled.
- Sustained. Judge Jenkins,
480
00:19:11,106 --> 00:19:13,456
you will remember whose
courtroom you are in
481
00:19:13,500 --> 00:19:15,241
and act accordingly.
482
00:19:15,284 --> 00:19:17,156
This is your final warning.
483
00:19:21,943 --> 00:19:24,641
I think we all need a recess.
484
00:19:30,778 --> 00:19:32,867
Everyone involved with
this case is terrible!
485
00:19:32,910 --> 00:19:33,974
They should all be
sent to an island
486
00:19:33,998 --> 00:19:35,062
where they can only
hurt each other.
487
00:19:35,086 --> 00:19:36,871
A cold island.
488
00:19:36,914 --> 00:19:39,917
I can't tell if Buckingham
is lying or just gross.
489
00:19:39,961 --> 00:19:42,398
And if Judge Jenkins
interrupts Judge Carmichael
490
00:19:42,442 --> 00:19:45,140
one more time, I am going
to march right up to her,
491
00:19:45,184 --> 00:19:46,504
and I'm gonna give
her a piece...
492
00:19:46,533 --> 00:19:47,577
Oh.
493
00:19:47,621 --> 00:19:49,100
Sara?
494
00:19:49,144 --> 00:19:50,363
You okay?
495
00:19:50,406 --> 00:19:51,668
That was Whitney.
496
00:19:53,148 --> 00:19:54,236
That was Nikki's mom.
497
00:19:56,978 --> 00:19:59,589
Obviously I can't
discuss an ongoing case
498
00:19:59,633 --> 00:20:01,243
in the courthouse I oversee,
499
00:20:01,287 --> 00:20:02,897
but I wanted to reach
out as a friend.
500
00:20:02,940 --> 00:20:06,292
Thank you. I appreciate
that. All of it.
501
00:20:06,335 --> 00:20:08,381
The arraignment must have
been difficult for you.
502
00:20:08,424 --> 00:20:09,923
Apparently it's just illegal
503
00:20:09,947 --> 00:20:11,471
to be a good parent.
504
00:20:11,514 --> 00:20:14,909
If you need any
help with Nikki...
505
00:20:14,952 --> 00:20:16,476
You cannot recommend
any more tutors.
506
00:20:18,434 --> 00:20:21,611
Whitney, we can't
talk about the case,
507
00:20:21,655 --> 00:20:24,048
but we cantalk about
how you're doing.
508
00:20:27,617 --> 00:20:29,489
I'm not at my best.
509
00:20:29,532 --> 00:20:32,274
I know that.
510
00:20:32,318 --> 00:20:34,276
The pandemic gutted
the restaurant.
511
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,584
- I barely leave the house.
- You can call anytime.
512
00:20:37,627 --> 00:20:40,848
And Nikki is so difficult.
513
00:20:40,891 --> 00:20:43,590
She's always been so difficult.
514
00:20:43,633 --> 00:20:46,332
Do you remember how
colicky she was as a baby?
515
00:20:46,375 --> 00:20:48,247
I didn't sleep for
months. Well...
516
00:20:48,290 --> 00:20:49,615
And it's... it's
just never stopped.
517
00:20:49,639 --> 00:20:52,729
Now she is willfully
tanking her grades.
518
00:20:52,773 --> 00:20:54,688
I think her teachers
don't even like her.
519
00:20:54,731 --> 00:20:56,211
I don't know that I blame them.
520
00:20:56,255 --> 00:21:01,216
W... Look,
parenting is very challenging.
521
00:21:01,260 --> 00:21:03,218
She thinks
I am so strict.
522
00:21:03,262 --> 00:21:07,353
She has no idea what strict is.
523
00:21:09,355 --> 00:21:10,704
I see.
524
00:21:13,010 --> 00:21:16,144
Am I a hypocrite?
525
00:21:16,187 --> 00:21:18,625
You lied about
making good margaritas,
526
00:21:18,668 --> 00:21:20,801
but I don't think that
makes you a hypocrite.
527
00:21:20,844 --> 00:21:23,107
Parole hearing has me spinning.
528
00:21:23,151 --> 00:21:24,346
You know, you can't
keep using work
529
00:21:24,370 --> 00:21:25,762
as an excuse to talk to me.
530
00:21:25,806 --> 00:21:27,198
Okay, this is strictly business.
531
00:21:27,242 --> 00:21:28,263
If I say something too personal,
532
00:21:28,287 --> 00:21:29,723
just say..."margarita."
533
00:21:29,766 --> 00:21:31,420
You mean like a safe word?
534
00:21:31,464 --> 00:21:33,509
Okay, what do you got?
535
00:21:33,553 --> 00:21:35,424
Murderer up for parole.
536
00:21:35,468 --> 00:21:37,383
Victim's brother
wants him to rot.
537
00:21:37,426 --> 00:21:38,862
Understandable.
I've risked my job
538
00:21:38,906 --> 00:21:40,473
fighting for
restorative justice,
539
00:21:40,516 --> 00:21:42,605
saying people are
more than their crime,
540
00:21:42,649 --> 00:21:44,009
that change is
possible and that...
541
00:21:44,041 --> 00:21:45,481
What is different
about this? Murder.
542
00:21:47,218 --> 00:21:49,438
And the murderer is
a white supremacist,
543
00:21:49,482 --> 00:21:51,658
militia type. So
Choi assigns this
544
00:21:51,701 --> 00:21:53,355
to the first Black
lawyer he could find.
545
00:21:53,399 --> 00:21:55,401
- Like it's a test.
- With no right answers.
546
00:21:55,444 --> 00:21:58,186
And why is it that we
always have to forgive them?
547
00:21:58,229 --> 00:22:00,188
Yes, but
548
00:22:00,231 --> 00:22:02,233
is this actually
about forgiveness?
549
00:22:02,277 --> 00:22:04,758
Or is the real question does
he pose a threat if released?
550
00:22:04,801 --> 00:22:06,934
That is my point.
551
00:22:06,977 --> 00:22:09,371
At the root of
this is a question
552
00:22:09,415 --> 00:22:11,155
of the entire justice system.
553
00:22:11,199 --> 00:22:12,853
Are you putting
too much on this?
554
00:22:12,896 --> 00:22:15,856
It's about retribution
versus rehabilitation,
555
00:22:15,899 --> 00:22:18,162
and are some crimes
beyond rehabilitation?
556
00:22:18,206 --> 00:22:20,861
I get it. I do. I
want it all, too.
557
00:22:20,904 --> 00:22:23,516
Dismantle systemic
racism. Reform parole.
558
00:22:23,559 --> 00:22:25,735
Pursue restorative
justice. I want that.
559
00:22:25,779 --> 00:22:28,259
But, one fight at a time,
and you have to know
560
00:22:28,303 --> 00:22:30,349
which fight you are
fighting right now.
561
00:22:33,090 --> 00:22:35,397
Margarita.
562
00:22:35,441 --> 00:22:37,704
But this wasn't about
our personal lives.
563
00:22:37,747 --> 00:22:39,270
No, but...
564
00:22:41,838 --> 00:22:43,840
Work and play tend to
get mixed up around you.
565
00:22:43,884 --> 00:22:45,407
You mean, like,
as a general rule?
566
00:22:45,451 --> 00:22:46,950
I can only speak from
my own experiences.
567
00:22:48,845 --> 00:22:50,717
And thanks for the advice.
568
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,022
Mm-hmm.
569
00:22:56,157 --> 00:22:58,028
- Bye.
- Bye.
570
00:23:00,944 --> 00:23:03,294
The prosecution
rests, Your Honor.
571
00:23:03,338 --> 00:23:05,253
Judge Jenkins, the
floor is yours.
572
00:23:05,296 --> 00:23:06,602
Thank you, Your Honor.
573
00:23:06,646 --> 00:23:10,345
I begin by calling
my first witness,
574
00:23:10,389 --> 00:23:11,825
Judge Prudence Jenkins.
575
00:23:13,783 --> 00:23:15,611
Judge Jenkins, you're
behaving recklessly.
576
00:23:15,655 --> 00:23:17,352
I understand the legal risks.
577
00:23:17,396 --> 00:23:19,223
With all due
respect, Your Honor,
578
00:23:19,267 --> 00:23:21,443
if I were in your seat,
579
00:23:21,487 --> 00:23:24,315
I'd defer to the more
experienced judge.
580
00:23:34,108 --> 00:23:36,893
For an intelligent person whose
entire career is on the line,
581
00:23:36,937 --> 00:23:39,418
Judge Jenkins is doing
everything wrong.
582
00:23:39,461 --> 00:23:41,594
Your Honor... First, she
wants to represent herself,
583
00:23:41,637 --> 00:23:43,291
and then she wants to testify?
584
00:23:43,334 --> 00:23:45,380
It is unorthodox. It is
the behavior of an amateur.
585
00:23:45,424 --> 00:23:49,297
She is
getting under your skin.
586
00:23:49,340 --> 00:23:52,343
Have you considered
it is her strategy?
587
00:23:52,387 --> 00:23:54,171
To distract me? Of course!
588
00:23:54,215 --> 00:23:56,217
Because I feel like the
key to this whole case
589
00:23:56,260 --> 00:23:59,046
is already in front of me,
like I've missed it somehow.
590
00:23:59,089 --> 00:24:01,048
Judge Carmichael.
591
00:24:01,091 --> 00:24:04,355
Mr. Sanders, an appointment
would be appropriate.
592
00:24:04,399 --> 00:24:05,792
Ah. In the building.
593
00:24:05,835 --> 00:24:07,334
Potential state office
run. Can't say who.
594
00:24:07,358 --> 00:24:08,490
And yet you want me to know.
595
00:24:08,534 --> 00:24:10,231
How can we help
you, Mr. Sanders?
596
00:24:10,274 --> 00:24:14,365
A political donor with
significant capacity... can't say,
597
00:24:14,409 --> 00:24:15,908
but he was instrumental
in the governor's race.
598
00:24:15,932 --> 00:24:17,368
This donor mentioned you.
599
00:24:17,412 --> 00:24:19,292
- Is there a point?
- If you'd like there to be.
600
00:24:19,327 --> 00:24:21,895
Mr. Sanders, I am in
the midst of a trial.
601
00:24:21,938 --> 00:24:23,897
Understood. I'll be in touch.
602
00:24:27,770 --> 00:24:29,816
What am I supposed
to do with that?
603
00:24:29,859 --> 00:24:31,731
"I'll be in touch."
604
00:24:42,437 --> 00:24:43,786
You should get an alarm.
605
00:24:43,830 --> 00:24:45,111
Anybody
could just walk in.
606
00:24:45,135 --> 00:24:48,051
Twice in a month. What'd
I do to deserve this?
607
00:24:48,095 --> 00:24:49,705
You married me.
608
00:24:49,749 --> 00:24:53,622
Not for long. Papers
are on the table.
609
00:24:53,666 --> 00:24:55,232
Thank you.
610
00:24:56,886 --> 00:24:58,366
I'd left these in order.
611
00:25:02,065 --> 00:25:03,850
Sorry.
612
00:25:03,893 --> 00:25:05,416
I get scattered.
613
00:25:08,550 --> 00:25:10,639
Collier, is this how
much your treatments cost
614
00:25:10,683 --> 00:25:12,574
without my insurance? I'm
getting it straightened out.
615
00:25:12,598 --> 00:25:15,209
- Don't worry.
- I still owe you.
616
00:25:15,252 --> 00:25:17,864
We didn't keep score.
That's not how love works.
617
00:25:17,907 --> 00:25:20,475
You worked insane hours.
You kept me in law school.
618
00:25:20,519 --> 00:25:22,521
Well, I could work then.
619
00:25:22,564 --> 00:25:25,219
Right.
620
00:25:27,003 --> 00:25:29,092
I'm not your responsibility.
621
00:26:13,963 --> 00:26:15,617
Mr. Watkins,
would you like
622
00:26:15,661 --> 00:26:16,879
to join us at the front?
623
00:26:20,927 --> 00:26:24,060
I take responsibility
for my crime.
624
00:26:24,104 --> 00:26:26,410
You have to know
that I'm no longer
625
00:26:26,454 --> 00:26:30,023
a part of the Hazor Brigade.
626
00:26:30,066 --> 00:26:31,502
I'm not a danger
to the community.
627
00:26:31,546 --> 00:26:33,243
Thank you, Mr. Monroe.
628
00:26:33,287 --> 00:26:34,854
Mr. Watkins?
629
00:26:36,682 --> 00:26:38,161
Madame Chair, Mr. Monroe says
630
00:26:38,205 --> 00:26:39,772
he's taken anger
management courses.
631
00:26:39,815 --> 00:26:43,689
Could he describe a
de-escalation technique?
632
00:26:43,732 --> 00:26:45,429
Mr. Monroe?
633
00:26:45,473 --> 00:26:48,694
Sure. There's a
lot of different...
634
00:26:48,737 --> 00:26:51,087
Mostly, it's an attitude shift.
635
00:26:51,131 --> 00:26:53,437
But you can count to 10.
636
00:26:55,439 --> 00:26:57,528
Madame Chair, could Mr. Monroe
637
00:26:57,572 --> 00:27:00,183
recite the third precept
of the Hazor Brigade?
638
00:27:00,227 --> 00:27:03,099
United States is a white
nation, as ordained by God,
639
00:27:03,143 --> 00:27:04,884
to be governed by the appointed.
640
00:27:12,239 --> 00:27:15,808
I became friends with a lot of
African American men in here.
641
00:27:15,851 --> 00:27:18,985
Could
Mr. Monroe explain
642
00:27:19,028 --> 00:27:21,465
how he plans to support
himself if released?
643
00:27:21,509 --> 00:27:23,424
Won't be easy, I know.
644
00:27:23,467 --> 00:27:27,820
I've been in here a long
time, and people drift away.
645
00:27:27,863 --> 00:27:30,170
I regret killing Cyrus
646
00:27:30,213 --> 00:27:33,390
every single day.
647
00:27:33,434 --> 00:27:34,803
I didn't plan on it.
If it wasn't planned,
648
00:27:34,827 --> 00:27:37,699
could Mr. Monroe
explain why he was armed
649
00:27:37,743 --> 00:27:41,311
with a Sig Sauer P320 when
he went to meet with Cyrus?
650
00:27:41,355 --> 00:27:45,185
We were always armed.
I mean, we were...
651
00:27:45,228 --> 00:27:47,230
I'm not
making excuses.
652
00:27:47,274 --> 00:27:49,929
I chose to believe lies,
and I've been so sorry...
653
00:27:49,972 --> 00:27:51,147
You don't fool me.
654
00:27:51,191 --> 00:27:54,150
- Ms. Wilkinson...
- That's all right.
655
00:27:54,194 --> 00:27:55,606
I don't expect for
you to forgive me.
656
00:27:55,630 --> 00:27:57,850
Don't buy his act.
Don't believe it.
657
00:28:00,069 --> 00:28:02,419
- He was almost repentant.
- He wants out.
658
00:28:02,463 --> 00:28:05,031
That's the thing. Am
I a prosecutor that
659
00:28:05,074 --> 00:28:07,250
believes in punishment
or rehabilitation?
660
00:28:07,294 --> 00:28:09,775
Cyrus Wilkinson was
murdered. I know.
661
00:28:09,818 --> 00:28:11,404
The two people most
connected to that are inside.
662
00:28:11,428 --> 00:28:12,734
The important thing is how
663
00:28:12,778 --> 00:28:14,780
your possible
recommendation affects them,
664
00:28:14,823 --> 00:28:17,260
not what it says about you.
665
00:28:19,393 --> 00:28:21,003
When a defendant
represents herself,
666
00:28:21,047 --> 00:28:23,919
more flexibility is
demanded of the court.
667
00:28:23,963 --> 00:28:26,226
If I need clarification,
I will ask.
668
00:28:26,269 --> 00:28:28,489
And once we have finished,
the People will be given
669
00:28:28,532 --> 00:28:29,969
the opportunity
to cross-examine.
670
00:28:30,012 --> 00:28:31,892
- More than fair, Your Honor.
- You may proceed.
671
00:28:34,713 --> 00:28:38,151
I want to state on the record
that I stand by my verdict.
672
00:28:38,194 --> 00:28:41,850
To criminalize a verdict you
disagree with is dangerous,
673
00:28:41,894 --> 00:28:45,419
dangerous for judges,
dangerous for the law.
674
00:28:45,462 --> 00:28:48,204
I am most interested
in the case at hand.
675
00:28:48,248 --> 00:28:50,598
Andre Buckingham is corrupt.
676
00:28:50,641 --> 00:28:53,122
And if he hadn't been so
busy looking for shortcuts,
677
00:28:53,166 --> 00:28:54,950
he would've seen
that the prosecution
678
00:28:54,994 --> 00:28:57,300
failed to prove the
case against his client.
679
00:28:57,344 --> 00:29:00,477
And every defendant is
innocent until proven guilty.
680
00:29:00,521 --> 00:29:01,609
I am aware.
681
00:29:02,828 --> 00:29:04,612
Mr. Buckingham's donation
682
00:29:04,655 --> 00:29:06,919
was a calculated
attack against me.
683
00:29:06,962 --> 00:29:10,226
Did I mention Rainbow
Doors to him at some point?
684
00:29:10,270 --> 00:29:13,577
Certainly. But they
do such vital work
685
00:29:13,621 --> 00:29:16,667
that I often try to send
new donors their way.
686
00:29:16,711 --> 00:29:20,149
Question... has anyone else
donated at your suggestion?
687
00:29:20,193 --> 00:29:21,716
Many people, Your Honor.
688
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,806
You've heard from Sylvia
Arthur, their director.
689
00:29:24,850 --> 00:29:28,244
When she gets a donation from
someone she doesn't recognize,
690
00:29:28,288 --> 00:29:31,508
she's started calling me to
find out if I referred them.
691
00:29:31,552 --> 00:29:34,120
That is how many donors
I've sent their way.
692
00:29:34,163 --> 00:29:35,817
I see.
693
00:29:35,861 --> 00:29:38,341
And did she call you on the
day of Buckingham's donation?
694
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,083
Pardon me?
695
00:29:41,127 --> 00:29:43,825
Did Sylvia Arthur call
you the day she received
696
00:29:43,869 --> 00:29:45,479
the $50,000 donation?
697
00:29:45,522 --> 00:29:49,744
You are asking for more than
clarification, Your Honor.
698
00:29:49,788 --> 00:29:52,834
Then perhaps you haven't
read the latest bench guide?
699
00:29:52,878 --> 00:29:56,229
It clearly states that
in cases like these,
700
00:29:56,272 --> 00:30:00,450
judges must ask questions
and modify procedures
701
00:30:00,494 --> 00:30:01,774
to bring out all relevant facts.
702
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,236
Be that as it may, Your Honor,
703
00:30:03,279 --> 00:30:05,107
there's a fine line between
704
00:30:05,151 --> 00:30:06,805
bringing out all
the relevant facts
705
00:30:06,848 --> 00:30:08,850
and doing the
People's job for them.
706
00:30:10,504 --> 00:30:11,984
Then in the interest
of neutrality,
707
00:30:12,027 --> 00:30:13,202
I withdraw the question.
708
00:30:13,246 --> 00:30:14,595
Thank you, Your Honor.
709
00:30:14,638 --> 00:30:16,858
- Anything further?
- No, Your Honor.
710
00:30:16,902 --> 00:30:20,340
Mr. Berger, do you care to
cross-examine Judge Jenkins?
711
00:30:20,383 --> 00:30:22,124
Not at this time, Your Honor.
712
00:30:22,168 --> 00:30:25,475
But I would like to recall
Sylvia Arthur to the stand.
713
00:30:30,916 --> 00:30:33,179
Ms. Arthur, did you
speak to Judge Jenkins
714
00:30:33,222 --> 00:30:35,442
the day you received
Mr. Buckingham's donation?
715
00:30:39,707 --> 00:30:41,013
I did.
716
00:30:41,056 --> 00:30:43,406
What was the content
of that call?
717
00:30:46,540 --> 00:30:47,671
Ms. Arthur.
718
00:30:50,587 --> 00:30:53,373
Judge Jenkins, uh,
told me to call her
719
00:30:53,416 --> 00:30:54,736
as soon as I
received the donation
720
00:30:54,765 --> 00:30:56,593
to make sure it went through.
721
00:30:56,637 --> 00:30:57,701
You didn't
think to divulge
722
00:30:57,725 --> 00:30:59,466
this information earlier?
723
00:30:59,509 --> 00:31:01,381
I answered every
question I was asked.
724
00:31:01,424 --> 00:31:03,470
You didn't question where
the money came from?
725
00:31:03,513 --> 00:31:04,993
Objection, argumentative.
726
00:31:05,037 --> 00:31:07,039
Sustained. You don't
need to answer.
727
00:31:07,082 --> 00:31:08,736
You have no idea what
we're up against.
728
00:31:08,779 --> 00:31:12,522
40% of homeless youth in
this country are LGBTQ,
729
00:31:12,566 --> 00:31:14,263
and we have to beg for support.
730
00:31:14,307 --> 00:31:19,225
So when someone offers
my organization $50,000,
731
00:31:19,268 --> 00:31:20,791
part of being good
at my job is knowing
732
00:31:20,835 --> 00:31:22,315
which questions not to ask.
733
00:31:22,358 --> 00:31:25,144
Did Judge Jenkins tell you
the donation was coming
734
00:31:25,187 --> 00:31:27,711
before it was made?
735
00:31:30,018 --> 00:31:32,542
Yes.
736
00:31:32,586 --> 00:31:34,893
No further questions,
Your Honor.
737
00:31:40,507 --> 00:31:42,422
Can we walk and talk?
738
00:31:42,465 --> 00:31:44,511
Uh, Benner's taking
the bench in a minute,
739
00:31:44,554 --> 00:31:46,817
and I've got Corrine Cuthbert
and her bag of tricks.
740
00:31:46,861 --> 00:31:48,360
I wouldn't try to pull you
away if it wasn't something...
741
00:31:49,995 --> 00:31:52,519
Uh... I want to talk.
It's just, I have...
742
00:31:52,562 --> 00:31:54,869
Tonight, then? At home?
743
00:31:54,913 --> 00:31:58,394
- At home?
- Yeah.
744
00:31:58,438 --> 00:32:00,309
- Yeah.
- Okay.
745
00:32:06,707 --> 00:32:09,840
Feels just like Christmas morning,
doesn't it, Callan? You need a miracle?
746
00:32:09,884 --> 00:32:11,842
If we get Laski, we
paper him immediately.
747
00:32:11,886 --> 00:32:14,193
You ready? Form 170.6
is my favorite form.
748
00:32:14,236 --> 00:32:15,194
Yes.
749
00:32:15,237 --> 00:32:17,152
All rise.
750
00:32:19,024 --> 00:32:21,548
Calling the matter of
People v. Wayne McCarthy.
751
00:32:21,591 --> 00:32:23,985
Counsel, your appearances.
752
00:32:24,029 --> 00:32:25,571
Corrine Cuthbert on his
behalf. He is present.
753
00:32:25,595 --> 00:32:27,395
Mark Callan for the
People. You may be seated.
754
00:32:29,425 --> 00:32:32,776
When a controversial case
catches public attention,
755
00:32:32,820 --> 00:32:35,692
people speculate on
the judge's leanings.
756
00:32:35,736 --> 00:32:39,609
The primary duty of a
judge is not leaning.
757
00:32:39,653 --> 00:32:41,829
Counsel would do well
to remember that.
758
00:32:44,136 --> 00:32:45,330
The matter of People v. McCarthy
759
00:32:45,354 --> 00:32:48,009
is assigned to Judge
Albert Campbell.
760
00:32:48,053 --> 00:32:49,334
- Mm.
- We can work with Campbell.
761
00:32:49,358 --> 00:32:50,945
Love Campbell. That's
not gonna work for me.
762
00:32:50,969 --> 00:32:53,145
Hold on. I've got it.
763
00:32:53,188 --> 00:32:56,757
Ms. Cuthbert, as you found
fault in my original choice,
764
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,648
we'll need to move on to
the next available judge.
765
00:32:58,672 --> 00:33:00,108
Thank you.
766
00:33:00,152 --> 00:33:03,198
Judge Lola Carmichael
will preside.
767
00:33:03,242 --> 00:33:05,418
Judge "Defund the
Police"? You're joking.
768
00:33:05,461 --> 00:33:08,116
Judge Carmichael is
meticulously fair
769
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,032
and highly respected. She's
the next judge in line.
770
00:33:11,076 --> 00:33:13,010
Everyone in this courthouse
knows that Judge Carmichael
771
00:33:13,034 --> 00:33:14,731
and Mr. Callan are
personally close.
772
00:33:14,775 --> 00:33:17,473
I don't want to file an
affidavit of actual bias.
773
00:33:17,517 --> 00:33:20,085
Should you chose to
do so, Ms. Cuthbert,
774
00:33:20,128 --> 00:33:22,478
there is a form
for that as well.
775
00:33:23,697 --> 00:33:25,699
Carmichael. High five.
776
00:33:25,742 --> 00:33:29,007
You see Carmichael
as an advantage.
777
00:33:29,050 --> 00:33:31,531
I will make her
your Achilles' heel.
778
00:33:31,574 --> 00:33:33,750
This is not good.
779
00:33:40,322 --> 00:33:44,152
Shayne Monroe has asked
us to believe a lot today.
780
00:33:44,196 --> 00:33:46,633
He's asked us to believe
that he regrets his crime,
781
00:33:46,676 --> 00:33:50,376
to believe he is
capable of change.
782
00:33:58,558 --> 00:34:00,690
Mr. Watkins, are you
making a recommendation?
783
00:34:10,483 --> 00:34:11,614
Mr. Watkins.
784
00:34:11,658 --> 00:34:13,964
Thank you.
785
00:34:14,008 --> 00:34:16,358
Shayne must've died
inside when he saw you.
786
00:34:16,402 --> 00:34:18,336
Mr. Monroe doesn't have a
good support network outside.
787
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:20,101
He needs more insight
788
00:34:20,145 --> 00:34:24,062
on how his ideology
drove him to kill, but
789
00:34:24,105 --> 00:34:25,952
if he works on those issues,
he could be released,
790
00:34:25,976 --> 00:34:28,979
especially if those he
harmed came to support it.
791
00:34:29,023 --> 00:34:31,243
My brother joined that militia
792
00:34:31,286 --> 00:34:33,134
because he thought the
country was failing the people
793
00:34:33,158 --> 00:34:36,161
it was supposed to take care of.
794
00:34:36,204 --> 00:34:37,814
Don't prove him right.
795
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,303
Do you think that
compassion for a criminal
796
00:34:48,347 --> 00:34:50,175
is the same as
cruelty to a victim?
797
00:34:50,218 --> 00:34:52,002
I gave you this
assignment hoping
798
00:34:52,046 --> 00:34:53,961
you would ask
questions like that.
799
00:34:54,004 --> 00:34:55,658
As long as you keep asking them,
800
00:34:55,702 --> 00:34:58,357
you're doing a
good job, Watkins.
801
00:35:06,365 --> 00:35:08,541
Will the defendant please stand?
802
00:35:14,721 --> 00:35:17,854
There has been a lot of
debate in the last year
803
00:35:17,898 --> 00:35:21,336
about holding law enforcement
to a higher standard.
804
00:35:21,380 --> 00:35:23,643
I believe the judicial branch
805
00:35:23,686 --> 00:35:26,385
should be asking
those same questions.
806
00:35:26,428 --> 00:35:29,039
Rigorous adherence
to ethical standards
807
00:35:29,083 --> 00:35:33,261
is how we protect the
integrity of this institution.
808
00:35:33,305 --> 00:35:35,829
On the count of
agreeing to take a bribe
809
00:35:35,872 --> 00:35:38,179
in violation of PC 93,
810
00:35:38,223 --> 00:35:41,226
this Court finds the
defendant guilty as charged.
811
00:35:41,269 --> 00:35:43,880
The clerk shall record
the verdict as rendered.
812
00:35:48,581 --> 00:35:50,539
Only two years in,
you think you know.
813
00:35:52,150 --> 00:35:53,977
It's only two years in.
814
00:35:54,021 --> 00:35:56,458
Mrs. Jenkins, you will
be given the opportunity
815
00:35:56,502 --> 00:35:57,546
to speak at sentencing.
816
00:35:57,590 --> 00:35:59,157
"Missus."
817
00:36:01,246 --> 00:36:05,293
For years, we see
people at their worst.
818
00:36:05,337 --> 00:36:09,210
And even as a judge,
you can never do enough.
819
00:36:09,254 --> 00:36:13,780
You will see a chance
to make a real impact,
820
00:36:13,823 --> 00:36:17,044
and you will do the right
thing, even if it isn't legal.
821
00:36:17,087 --> 00:36:19,916
Do not pretend
your moral failing
822
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,354
was some sort of
grand sacrifice.
823
00:36:22,397 --> 00:36:27,359
The right thing isthe legal
thing, especially for us.
824
00:36:27,402 --> 00:36:29,143
Enjoy your superiority
while it lasts.
825
00:36:29,187 --> 00:36:32,625
Enjoy? Do you have any
idea what you have done?
826
00:36:32,668 --> 00:36:36,629
If a judge can be
bribed, how can we ever
827
00:36:36,672 --> 00:36:38,979
convince someone on the margins
828
00:36:39,022 --> 00:36:41,199
that this building
stands for them, too?
829
00:36:41,242 --> 00:36:44,158
That they can find justice here?
830
00:36:44,202 --> 00:36:47,466
I once thought that you
blazed a trail for me,
831
00:36:47,509 --> 00:36:50,077
but now you're just in my way.
832
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:51,644
Sentencing will be in two weeks.
833
00:36:51,687 --> 00:36:53,254
We are done here.
834
00:37:10,053 --> 00:37:13,143
It wasn't skepticism.
It was fear.
835
00:37:13,187 --> 00:37:14,493
Okay.
836
00:37:14,536 --> 00:37:17,670
When you came to
me about Whitney,
837
00:37:17,713 --> 00:37:20,281
I-I just didn't
want to believe it,
838
00:37:20,325 --> 00:37:23,153
and I-I handled it poorly.Yes.
839
00:37:23,197 --> 00:37:25,112
I-I can't apologize enough.
840
00:37:25,155 --> 00:37:27,723
What you did took bravery.
841
00:37:27,767 --> 00:37:30,726
Whitney is your friend,
842
00:37:30,770 --> 00:37:32,380
but she is not well,
843
00:37:32,424 --> 00:37:34,817
and she's gonna need a
lot of help to get better.
844
00:37:39,300 --> 00:37:40,388
Good night.
845
00:37:46,264 --> 00:37:48,918
I have got to do more
cardio.
846
00:37:48,962 --> 00:37:51,007
I'm putting a spin
bike in my chambers.
847
00:37:53,140 --> 00:37:56,491
Jenkins threatened everything
I love about this job.
848
00:37:56,535 --> 00:37:59,320
- Jenkins?
- Yeah. Jenkins.
849
00:37:59,364 --> 00:38:02,410
- What?
- You haven't been told?
850
00:38:02,454 --> 00:38:05,021
Don't tell me you
kissed somebody else.
851
00:38:05,065 --> 00:38:06,196
I don't even want to know.
852
00:38:06,240 --> 00:38:08,068
Lo, Benner named
the presiding judge
853
00:38:08,111 --> 00:38:10,244
in the McCarthy case.
854
00:38:10,288 --> 00:38:12,464
It's you.
855
00:38:12,507 --> 00:38:16,294
That... is a surprise.
856
00:38:16,337 --> 00:38:18,687
This is gonna get ugly.
You have a family now.
857
00:38:18,731 --> 00:38:21,429
I'm a judge, it's what
I've been called to do.
858
00:38:21,473 --> 00:38:23,997
And even though we won't be
able to talk for a while...
859
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,434
Not even a little bit? Not
even a little. We will be okay.
860
00:38:30,656 --> 00:38:33,572
This McCarthy case,
it's... big, Lola,
861
00:38:33,615 --> 00:38:34,853
and Cuthbert is gonna
hit us with everything...
862
00:38:34,877 --> 00:38:36,009
All right, go.
863
00:38:36,052 --> 00:38:38,359
- Now?
- Yes, now.
864
00:38:38,403 --> 00:38:40,230
Just standing here
could tank your case.
865
00:38:40,274 --> 00:38:42,514
Starting tomorrow. And move
out of the guest house, stat.
866
00:38:48,064 --> 00:38:50,763
- Love you.
- Love you, too, goof.
867
00:39:11,610 --> 00:39:13,307
I was wrong about us.
868
00:39:13,351 --> 00:39:14,632
I preferred you
talking about work.
869
00:39:14,656 --> 00:39:16,354
I'm sorry. I couldn't wait.
870
00:39:17,659 --> 00:39:18,791
You want to sit?
871
00:39:24,231 --> 00:39:26,494
I've been thinking about
our future like it's one
872
00:39:26,538 --> 00:39:27,974
single decision.
873
00:39:28,017 --> 00:39:30,150
You choose me, I
choose you, the end.
874
00:39:30,193 --> 00:39:32,544
You've put me under
a lot of pressure.
875
00:39:32,587 --> 00:39:35,677
And that's where I was wrong.
876
00:39:35,721 --> 00:39:40,552
It's not one huge decision.
It's a hundred little ones.
877
00:39:40,595 --> 00:39:41,553
You know, building
a life together
878
00:39:41,596 --> 00:39:42,858
isn't jumping off a cliff.
879
00:39:42,902 --> 00:39:44,469
- It's...
- Climbing up one?
880
00:39:44,512 --> 00:39:47,515
It's having faith that your
partner's gonna choose you
881
00:39:47,559 --> 00:39:49,909
every one of those little times.
882
00:39:49,952 --> 00:39:52,868
I want you to have faith in me.
883
00:39:52,912 --> 00:39:58,439
That everyday, simple "yes"?
That sounds wonderful.
884
00:39:58,483 --> 00:40:01,486
But?
885
00:40:01,529 --> 00:40:03,662
I worry
that I only know
886
00:40:03,705 --> 00:40:05,620
how to operate in crisis mode.
887
00:40:05,664 --> 00:40:09,711
I want to stop and just be
888
00:40:09,755 --> 00:40:12,453
uncomplicated with someone.
889
00:40:12,497 --> 00:40:14,107
With me.
890
00:40:18,198 --> 00:40:21,288
I think about it... a lot.
891
00:40:24,900 --> 00:40:28,208
Me saying "I love you" is not
892
00:40:28,251 --> 00:40:31,472
the first step in
the relationship.
893
00:40:31,516 --> 00:40:33,692
But what... what if we took one?
894
00:40:33,735 --> 00:40:36,390
One... one simple,
one uncomplicated one?
895
00:40:46,052 --> 00:40:49,359
What would that
first step look like?
896
00:40:49,403 --> 00:40:52,754
Little choices. I'll
cook you dinner.
897
00:40:55,148 --> 00:40:57,498
That sounds nice.
898
00:40:57,542 --> 00:40:59,084
As long as there are
no margaritas involved.
899
00:41:00,283 --> 00:41:02,155
Okay?
900
00:41:02,198 --> 00:41:06,159
Because, wow. They're so bad.
901
00:41:19,999 --> 00:41:21,522
This is nice.
902
00:41:30,531 --> 00:41:31,967
Amy
903
00:41:32,011 --> 00:41:35,841
you have every
right to be angry.
904
00:41:37,712 --> 00:41:42,108
I did something so stupid,
and then I made it worse
905
00:41:42,151 --> 00:41:43,868
- by not telling you I...
- Mark, I've been trying...
906
00:41:43,892 --> 00:41:45,503
Look, I know you have.
907
00:41:45,546 --> 00:41:48,462
And the fact that you're even
considering... I'm married.
908
00:42:04,696 --> 00:42:05,827
19.
909
00:42:05,871 --> 00:42:07,786
For a while, it was...
910
00:42:07,829 --> 00:42:10,092
We were each other's ticket out.
911
00:42:10,136 --> 00:42:11,200
He was actually the reason I...
912
00:42:11,224 --> 00:42:13,052
- Out of what?
- What?
913
00:42:13,095 --> 00:42:14,793
Your ticket out of what?
914
00:42:14,836 --> 00:42:20,450
Just... a small town, I guess.
915
00:42:20,494 --> 00:42:23,149
- I wanted to be extraordinary.
- Amy
916
00:42:23,192 --> 00:42:25,978
you areextraordinary.
917
00:42:29,895 --> 00:42:33,594
But we grew up, and apart.
918
00:42:33,638 --> 00:42:35,378
We decided to end things, but
919
00:42:35,422 --> 00:42:36,771
then he got sick and...
920
00:42:36,815 --> 00:42:39,557
- I need to take a walk.
- Mark...
921
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,907
Come on,
Mark. Ask me anything.
922
00:42:54,572 --> 00:42:55,964
Mark?
