Good morning.

Good morning.
Good morning.

Good morning.
Good morning.

For the record,
Daniel Michael Gallagher,

convicted of murder
in the second degree,

given a sentence
of 15 years to life.

This is your first appearance

before the board?
Yes, ma'am.

You managed to keep
a clean disciplinary record.

You were involved in the
exoneration of David Rangel?

You seem
to have made it a point

to provide that
kind of assistance.

I agree with whoever it was that
said that the greatest threat

to our system of justice
is an innocent man.

And we understand you do have
a statement you've prepared.

Yes, ma'am.

I only wanted
to say that...

...that I...

That every day
that I have been in here,

I have thought about
Alexandra Forrest.

Because I need to make myself
understand what I did,

how she died...

...that I killed her...

and why.

My position,

my accomplishments,

everything that I had...

...and everything
that I wanted...

next to that, she meant nothing.

That she tried to jeopardize it,

in my mind...

meant that I was justified
in whatever I chose to do.

And I chose rage.

I chose to lose control.

I chose to take her life.

And the man that I had always
believed myself to be

could not have done that.

But I did.

So I have tried to take
every single day

that I have been in here...

...to come...

to a better understanding

of who I really am...

and to atone.

Um, that's all I have to say.

If you were to be paroled, what
plans do you have for yourself?

The first...

The first thing
that I would like to do

is to be reconnected
with my family.

Do you have
any more questions?

No.

Thank you, Mr. Gallagher.

We'll take all of this
under advisement

and notify you
of our decision.

Thank you all
very much.

Come on.
Let's go.

Uh, that's not mine.

That's not my phone.

Name?

Ellen Gallagher.

...on vacation in
Switzerland, and, one morning,

his wife came back from a hike
and described climbing a hill

to find an old wooden house
at the top,

with a beautiful
handcarved door.

Did I not tell this story
in junior honors seminar?

No? Okay.

Well, so, after lunch,

she wanted him to see
the house with the door,

so they climbed the hill

and then all
the surrounding hills,

but they never found it.

Carl Jung described his wife
as calm and rational,

logical, impossible to fool.

But so here was something
she swore had happened,

that he absolutely
could not explain.

I mean,
four other classes, yeah,

and then the reading,
as well.

So it's-- it's a lot,
but, uh, I think I just find

that, with, like, listening
and even taking notes,

everything is just sort of gone
as soon as it's over.

So doing that transcription
just really helps,

like, set it in stone for me,
I guess.

So it's worth
all the extra time.

Plus, you'll have a hard copy of
every lecture to refer back to.

Yeah.

Still, though,
why are other people

just, like, so good at it?
At what?

Remembering
what they hear?

Yeah.

Trust me, they're not.

So, do you--

My father might be, um...

up for parole.

He's up for parole.

That must have been so hard
for you to be holding on to.

All this time, you've had to
carry his being in prison,

when you had told me
he was dead.

Well, he's never
e-mailed me before.

Ever.

And then he asked me
to come to his hearing,

and I didn't e-mail back,

but I went.

I'm sorry that I lied.

People tell me what
they're ready to tell me.

Let me run something
by you, okay?

Work-related?

Speaking of birthdays,
it was Marlena's birthday.

And she's been sending me
these screenshots

of some shit
called a tennis bracelet.

Like I got that kind
of scratch laying around.

So I had to get creative.

Oh, boy.

What?
It's nothing.

I just don't want to have
anything in my mouth

when you tell me
what you did.

So I thought to myself,

"How much jewelry have I got
Winnie over the years?"

And then I've never seen
most of it, like, ever again.

So I looked,
and I found this one thing

that pretty much solved
my problem exactly.

So I repurposed it.

Oh. Marlena loves it.
She went fucking crazy.

I'm sure she did. You both
clearly have great taste.

Fuck you, dude.
I need some advice here.

Why? You already did the thing
I would have told you not to do.

Because I could have sworn
that Winnie would not remember

this fuckin' thing
that she's never worn once,

but now she says
that she can't find it

and that she thinks
someone stole it.

And she wants me
to claim it on insurance.

Which I have not done yet.
Because that's fraud.

So I explained to her,
I was like, "Babe, look.

It doesn't make sense that
a thief would just sneak in here

and steal this one thing.
It probably just slipped

through the cracks
in the drawer or whatever."

Which, yeah, I think I might
just double down on that.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

Or you could blame it
on one of the kids.

Frank, honestly, stop talking
to me, your direct supervisor,

about your criminal
fucking enterprise.

And if you come to my party with
anybody other than your wife,

I will crap thunder on you.

Like Marlena would want to come
to a geezer's party. She's 23.

Oh, there it is, the face.

You know, no wonder
they're gonna make you judge.

- Well, happy birthday, Danny.
- Thank you, Terry.

Also, tell me again
on Thursday.

Morning.

Good morning.

You see the hearing's
been pushed?

I did, yes, thank you.
How are you today?

Okay.

I had a dream last night

this giant snake
bit me on the face.

Well, that's disturbing.

Beatrice.

Oh.
Here for Koestner?

Yep, it's been
a while

since I've been up against
one of Norman's juries.

You should be fine, so long as
you haven't missed anything.

You haven't missed anything,
have you?

Shut up.

Ooh! Heard your 40th birthday's
coming up.

That's young for a judge.

Just not young
for a person.

Damn!
Beatrice, that hurts.

Hey, hey, boss. Hey.

Hey.
Can I get a sign-off?

Vehicular manslaughter.
I was thinking probation.

Defendant blew a 1.8.
That's pretty drunk, Phil.

Right, but it's
a first offense.

Plus, the vic died
of a heart attack.

No. No deal.
Save your empathy for somebody

who doesn't get behind
the wheel shit-faced.

Bad decisions lead
to bad outcomes.

You play stupid games,
you win stupid prizes.

How you doing, Your Honor?

Don't jinx me, Gabriel.

I'm home!

Those are
pretty pictures.

Nana got it for me.
Oh, really?

At the Taschen store.

It was sealed in plastic,
so it might have been

the illustrated Scandinavian
Kama Sutra, for all she knew.

But she liked the cover,
so here we are.

But it's not, right?
Right?

It's fairy tales.

Fairy tales. Okay.
Fairy tales are good.

We like fairy tales.
Mm-hmm.

I'm sorry.

Go on.

I was
a complete shithead.

And I'm sorry.

The best was how
you literally had just said

you didn't care
what we watched.

It was extremely...
bag-of-dicks.

You're right, I'm wrong,
I'm sorry...

and I think maybe
just all the moving stuff

was getting in my pocket.

Wait. That was about moving?
Do you not want to move?

Honey, I'm really just
trying to say I'm sorry.

'Cause, you know, we can just
still flip that house instead.

Just sayin'.
And while we're saying stuff,

you don't have to be a judge
either if you don't want.

"The hours are easier,
the schedule's more reliable,

it's such an honor"--
that you can still refuse.

It'd be a baller move, right?

They offer it to me, and I'm
just like, "Tsk, eh, I'm good."

I bet you didn't know that
judges get to go to conferences.

In fancy places, no less.

What kind and where?

Mostly the law kind.

And how about Aruba?

Aruba means Milwaukee.

Milwaukee means
San Bernardino.

Hey, kiddo.

Where do the sun
and the moon come into it?

Well,
the stepmother's castle

is east of the sun
and west of the moon.

Ohh...

Doesn't have to
have a stepmother,

but when it does, man,
you know it's good, right?

Hey, what's the problem
with Suarez's case?

He says you're not
gonna charge it.

I asked him to get
one of the four guys

to flip on the other ones.
It's not a problem for me.

Yeah, well,
he's already got a witness,

who's a working man,
a father, community pillar.

Why does he need to negotiate
with a murderer?

Can you tell me where
this perfect witness
is gonna be in six months?

Eating M&M's outside of
Courtroom 12 while waiting
to be called to the stand.

And can you absolutely
promise me you can find
him and bring him in?

Can I? Yes. You gonna
charge the case or not?

I'm gonna
prosecutorial-discretion it.

Aw!
Suarez has four guys.

I'm just asking for one.

Maybe you guys should
have gone to law school.

No, I wanted to work
for a living.

And here we are.

Thank you.

You still coming
to my party?

I don't know.
You gonna be there?

A full bar
is gonna be there.

Plus, specialty cocktails
with themes.

Ooh! At least
that's fuckin' stupid.

Excuse me, sir. Hmm.

There's no eating
in the courtroom.

No, there's no you eating
in the courtroom. Just me.

You're not me.

Sad but true.
Where's Conchita?

Double-booked,
but she sent her.

Alice.
Okay.

Or Alex.

Well, which is it?

Hmm.

Someone should ask.

Conchita got stuck upstairs,
said she's really sorry.

I'm Alex Forrest.

Alex. That's alright.
Dan Gallagher.

Yeah, she loves you. Conchita.

Yeah, she lowers
my blood pressure.

So... you up to speed
on everything yet?

Yeah, Conchita's definitely
their point person,

but they know me,
so we're good.

They're nervous.

Well, let's go
talk to them.

How you guys
holding up?

Okay.

Big day.

All the times
I had to remind you

to control
your facial expressions,

hide your anger,
hide your pain,

don't do anything to make
the jury feel bad,

feel sorry for the man
who killed Yalina.

But today this is...

This is the sentencing phase.

This is for the judge.

He needs to know what you lost.

So show him.

If you feel angry, be angry.

If you feel like
you want to cry, you cry.

Today is the day
for all the emotions.

And this is the place.

Okay?
Yeah.

Okay?
Yes.

Thank you.
You're welcome.

Thank you. Thanks.

So, are you doing anything
for the big birthday?

Wife's throwing me
a party.

Nice. My mom wanted to do that
for my dad's 40th,

but he didn't want her
to spend the money.

If I was a wiser man,
I'd probably be saying
the same thing.

Yeah, but then he had
a stroke the next year,

so shouldn't have asked him;
should've just done it.

Hi-de-ho, degenerates.

Nice pocket square, E.B.

Oh, you like that?

Oh, what could possibly
go wrong with that?

Victim services.
She works with Conchita.

Conchita, man.
Conchita's the best.

What's her name?

Alice, I think?

Hmm.
Is Alice my big toe?

'Cause I want to bang her on
every piece of furniture I own.

She wants
full overlay now.
Wait. What?

Yeah, her friend Sharon
just had wood inserts put on

all her appliances so they'll
blend with her cabinetry.

Well, speaking of
new appliances,

she wants a cheese
refrigerator now, too.
No, no.

People are feeling a way
about cheese these days, Danny.

Is that way constipated?

It will be.

Oh, hold.

Hi. No, not yet.

Uh, I'm--
I'm coming right now.

Nope.
I forgot. Sorry.

Here. You ask her.
For you.

Let me clean this shit up.
Hey, pal.

Well, I have these boots

I'm trying to build
an outfit around,

but now I'm thinking
I should just get over myself.

So you excited about
going to that

white-truffle
asshole place?

Why can I never remember
the name of it?

I don't know. Is that
even happening anymore?

Send me a picture. Text it.
Okay. I will.

She knows.
I will.

Hey. Either you want me
to come home or you don't.

What? How do we have
no bananas?

I'll see you
tomorrow night, Dan.

Bye, Beth. Well, if I'm going
to the store,

do we need anything else?

Well, think, woman.

Isn't this thing
starting at 6:00?

Are you
getting ready or...?

Uh, sorry.
Dad pushed it to 7:30.

So you didn't need me to
come home early from work then?

No. I still
wanted you home.

Oh, really? Why?

Make you do stuff
for me.

Pick it up.

You goddamn...

sexy lunatic.

Aah!

I didn't ask for
anything to be substituted.

I simply asked, could they
not put it on the plate.

Kind of an expensive restaurant
to make such a mistake, Bethie.

So just don't
eat it then.

It's not like they gave you
a grenade with the pin pulled.

I just think it's funny.
That's all.

They've got a hundred people
running around in here...

Shh.

...creating an unparalleled
dining experience.

I will go ask them
to replate it.

No one has to do anything.
I just said it was funny.

I didn't want to substitute.
I didn't want it at all.

And not only do I get it anyway,
but it's cold.

Ironic polenta.

Hm!

Oh, boy.

How we doing over here,
Eleanor?

- Ellen.
- Lennon?

Ellen.

Ah. Lemon.

Ellen.
Sluggo?

Ellen.
Gordon Shumway.

Hey, you want a slice of
my pork, Gordon Shumway?

I think I'm good.

You sure?
It's really good.

I love you.
I love you, too.

Yeah?
Clerk #1:
Sorry to bother you, boss.

Got a homicide in Lancaster.
No I.D. yet.

Okay. Call Frank,
tell him to go to the scene,

have him give me a call when
he figures out what's going on.

Gotcha.
Alright.

No rest for the wicked.

So it'll be
official soon, huh?

Do they get you
the, uh-- the thing?

Or do you get your own?

The robe. Huh.

You get your own.
Out of pocket, actually.

You don't even have to,
funnily enough.

There's no rule that says
a judge has to wear one.

It's more of a tradition
at this point,

a symbolic practice.

How much more are you going to
be pulling down a year?

20 K?

It won't pay
for private school.

Symbolism. Tradition.

The fabric of society.

Seven years at Stanford
to empty your pockets

for a metal detector
in the morning?

You're not doing that
for your family, Dan.

Or for your credit rating.

The end of the day,
it's all just

a cool guy's
cops-and-robbers game.

But, still, people will
have to call you Judge.

I'm sure
you'll hate that.

Look who it is!

Hello. Thank you all for coming.
Thank you.

Thank you, thank you.

- Hey!
- There she is!

Thanks, guys. Thank you.

Mikey!

♪ Happy birthday ♪

How are you, guys?
Thank you so much for coming.

I'm very good.

Enjoy.

Is the boss here? She said
she was gonna come.

If there were
$400 bottles of wine,

Leyva would be here,
but there's not.

But there are these.

Look. You're supposed to
be impressed.

Like no one's ever put egg
whites in a damn drink before.

Oh, and this one.
Wait for it.

It's a piña colada.

What do you want
from me, Mike?

Attention!

Happy birthday.

What time's the thing
for Dennis?
3:30.

Oh, shit.
Well, there goes the day then.

12th floor called.

She's looking for you.

Okay. Not fair to keep you
in any more suspense.

So, the appointment--
it's not happening.

What? What are you
talking about?

The governor's going
with Gus Howlett.

Gus Howlett? Since when?

He's not even
a fucking prosecutor.

Yeah, I know. And the whole
thing is pretty embarrassing.

Oh, I'm sure it is.

I thought this was
your slot to fill.

"It's a lock." I'm pretty sure
that's what you said.

Okay. Howlett's father-in-law's
big money in the tech sector.

He's got a whole lot of
king-shit weight

to throw around, and when
that whole thing happened--

I get it. Your corrupt buddy
is gonna let this asshole

buy a fucking judgeship
for his son-in-law, Gus,

that he doesn't even want,
right?!

Okay. Watch it.

Okay.

We'll go back in
next round.

Four years will be gone
before you know it.

You're just gonna have to
have a little faith.

You know, your father
wasn't appointed...

Oh, fuck him.
...his first
go-around, either.

Okay.

This shit is just
how this shit is.

It's like getting mad
at the wind for blowing.

Look, they just rejected
whoever doesn't serve

whatever agenda it is
they're pushing this cycle.

It's not you.
I know, Mike.

You know what else
no one gives a shit about?

What age your dad
got on the bench

and how you're not gonna
be younger than him.

He would have.
He would've what?

Given a shit.

Well, yeah, that's just 'cause
that's the kind of grinding,

petty needledick he was.

But he's dead.

So no one's even thinking
about that shit but you.

Yeah, 'cause you're doing a
great job shutting up about it.

You know, you should
maybe concentrate more

on how you're gonna handle all
the sympathy you're gonna get,

not to mention all the people
that want to see your balloon

get popped a little.

Look. What do you say
we pack it in

and take this day
to Andolini's?

I'm going at 3:30 for Dennis
Ortega's retirement thing.

How'd you get out of that,
by the way?

I probably said
it went to spam.

Hey, maybe you should think

about skipping it, too,
Dan, seriously.

Well, like you said,

got to start sometime.

So might as well be today.

Hey. Hey, guys.
How's it goin'?

Good to see you.
How you guys doin'?

It's a compliment and an honor,
but honestly,

at the end of the day,
it's kind of a demotion.

And, anyway, everybody knows
the court officers

actually run the court,
not the judge. Who wants that?

I want to give
three-hour summations,
not listen to them, right?

You sit there long enough, your
brain goes straight to your ass.

Why would I want you guys
telling me what to do?

When to show up, when to eat
lunch, when to take a shit.

I'm a D.A. I shit when I want.

So what's the play here?
What are you thinking?

Not sure yet. You?

I don't know what
a lot of these are.

Well... just take a bite
out of the mystery one,

and if you don't like it,
throw it on the floor.

Oh-- And they're cool
with that? The owners?

Oh. Yeah, yeah.
They want you to do it.

Yeah? Okay.

Pecan fingers,
rainbow cookies

which are actually cake
for some reason,

amaretti and anise.

These are ciminos.
That's sesame and orange. Fig.

And last but not least,
Italian wedding butter cookies

with chocolate
and pecan.

Holy shit.

Yeah, a lot of the many times
that I have been here,

there have been cookies.

Sure, but, I mean,
that's kind of a lot.

Is Conchita here
with you?

She brought me with her,
actually, but she's--

she's already gone back.

How has she never
brought you here before?

How can a person work
in the Criminal Courts building

and never come
to Andolini's?

I just moved here
last September, so...

Why? Because you had to
explain the cookies?

Maybe I just-- I like having
desserts described to me.

September.
That's eight months.

Let's say 240-ish days.

I'm here minimum
three times a week.

Which means
that since you moved,

I have been here
90 times.

Must be the place to be,
I guess.

Or just the place
I always am.

Are you okay?

I-I'm not asking for
any specifics. Obviously.

I mean, I'm aware that
I don't actually know you.

But... I don't know.

You seem...

something right now.

Yeah, I probably do.

Yeah, I probably do, too.

Things are just...
a lot sometimes.

Right?
Hm.

And they just
keep happening.

But don't worry.
It'll be okay.

Or it won't.

I'm gonna take these
on the road.

I'm particularly excited
about the sesame.

Very nice talking to you.

Congratulations.

Did you just get back?

What? Me? No.

Are you lying?

I can smell it,
you know.

You can smell lying?

No, I can smell
the alcohol.

Oh. That.
Well, anybody can do that.

Have you ever pushed
that red button?

I think you pull it.

It says "pull."
But no. You?

It's just
one of those things.

You know, like every time I see
a ladder up against something,

I feel the need
to climb it.

So what do you think
would happen?

Well... it says "stop,"

so I think we'd stop.

And then I think
a very loud bell would ring.

And then eventually

some court officer
in the basement would hear it,

and eventually they would call
the fire department, maybe.

But what if all the court
officers were at Andolini's?

Like tonight,
for instance. Hm.

Yes, that's
a very good point.

And so what
would happen, then?

Just... nothing?

Or something?

Would anybody come?

The numbskull.

Oh-ho! Danny!
Fellas.

You old bag of glue.
What's up?

Not much. What are you
still doing here?

Working overnights.

Want to grab a quick pop
or three at Andolini's?

No, I'm done.
Just got back.

It's all elbows and knees
over there right now.

Ah, shit. Right.
The racket for Dennis.

Yeah.
The racket.

That guy never worked
a day in his life.

Yeah?
I crashed
the fucking car, Mike.

What the fuck?
Car, Mikey. I crashed
the fucking car.

Where are you?

Uh, I'm under the 5
at Hollenbeck Park.

Are you hurt?
Is anybody hurt?

No, no, it's just the car.
The car is fucked.

Can you walk?
Yeah. Yeah.

Okay. Okay.
Just start walking north.

I will pick you up.

Do it now.

Mike...
I'll see you in 15, 20 max.

And unless you want
to get breathalyzed,

don't let anyone else
see you.

Where were you? Your last text
was like 2 hours ago.

Sorry. I'm sorry.

I got into an accident.
What?

N-Nobody's hurt, but Mike
had to come and pick me up.

My God.
What happened?

I had a few too many pops
with Dennis and the boys.

So you were drunk?

Yeah, yeah, I probably
technically still am,

but I feel pretty fucking sober
right now.

You like Dennis and the guys
that much that you'd be willing

to, like, risk killing
someone or yourself?

Because why?

I didn't get it.

The appointment.

It's not me.

The-- Wait.
How do you know?

Marcella told me
this morning.

Why didn't you
just come home?

Yeah.
Clerk #2:
Sorry to bother you, boss.

Baker's asking or another
adjournment on the Carew case.

Says his mother-in-law's
in the hospital.

Really?
He must have forgot

that he told us she died
two years ago.

Fuck me.
I'll let the judge know.

Oh, Christ.

So what happens now
with your job?

Nothing.

You crashed
a company car drunk.

We know that.
And Mike knows that.

But they don't know that.

And they won't if they
don't have a Breathalyzer.

So I'll just get lectured
for crashing a company car

that they searched and seized
and didn't pay for anyway.

Are you hurt anywhere?

No. No, I'm okay.

Fuck them.

For not knowing your value.
Fuck their whole asses.

Maybe when they come
crawling back in four years,
you won't be around.

You could have an equity
partnership right now

if you wanted one,
and Marcella knows it.

I bet you some of those firms
would even get you a driver

if you asked.

Want to watch
something?

Just space out and laugh
at people trying to ice-fish?

Yeah, you do. Come on.

Yeah.

Good morning, sunshine!

Got my guy at traffic control
out of bed last night.

We towed your car
back here.
What did he say?

Uh, fuck me for waking him up.
What's he supposed to say?

It's not his job to give a shit
about what you all get up to.

So that's it?

You don't want that
to be it?

Here's your new ride.

Well, new to you,
at least.

I'm not totally sure it's not
a minivan, but fingers crossed!

Hey.

God damn it, Conchita.

You know Phillipe's
is my favorite.

Why are you like this?

Would you like
the other half?

What do you think?

I think you can't have it
because I'm having it later

is what I'm telling myself.

Hey, um, on the Badillo case,
the hearing's next week.

Can you have someone call
and just make sure

that the uncle
stays in town?

I got a feeling I'm gonna
need him after all.

Uh, yeah. I'll talk to Drea
when she's back.

Great. And next time, buy me
a French dip, too, would ya?

For the love of God.
I will definitely

probably think about reminding
myself to remember to do that.

A halfway house
in Altadena.

Wow. That...

It seems fast. Yeah.

He said, um,
like, once they grant it,

it can go fast
because of overcrowding.

Like, the state being motivated
to reduce overcrowding.

So what happens now?

He wants to see me.

And he left it up to me when.

Or if.

Do you want me
to see him?

But that shouldn't be
why you don't.

Hey, yeah, I see you.
I see you. Yes, yes.

You know what?
Don't say anything yet.
I'll tell him later.

I just don't want him to hear it
and to have to figure out

how to be about it
in front of you.

Hi!

Hi, Dad!

At one point,
Jung had a young woman

as a patient who believed
she lived on the moon.

To Jung, this story
she kept telling

about where and how she lived
was the crux of her condition.

So he made it clear
he accepted it completely.

And after months of analysis,

one day, she handed him
a heavy little bag,

and inside,
there was a loaded gun.

"What is this?"
Jung asked the young woman.

She told him she'd had it
with her every time they met,

and if he ever let her down
or said he didn't believe her,

she would have
killed him with it.

Hi.

Did the defendant
understand the nature

and the quality of his act?

And at the time
that he committed it,

could he distinguish
between right and wrong?

Mr. Symanchuk has claimed

that he couldn't,
that he didn't.

He was delusional.

He was under the influence
of an irresistible impulse.

The legal definition of which
would mean that he was unable

to conform to the requirements
of the law.

Hey. I thought
you were already here.

I was,
but I just left.

They found Sylvie Rubidoh's
Audi in Pacoima.

Holy shit. Okay.
Fingers crossed.

Still have a drink, though.

I already told them
to put it on my tab.

Remember, you're pretty fucking
good just the way you are.

Later, tater.

I'm a course assistant.
It's like a T.A.

I bet you're really
great at that.

Why?

You always had
amazing focus.

Um, what's it, uh--
What's it like? The house.

Crowded.

But I got priority placement,
so I'm lucky.

I guess just given that
I didn't have a plan.

That's not true.

I did have a plan.

I just couldn't act like it was
going to happen until it did.

So many years
I've missed.

Which is what
I asked for.

How I wanted it.

Now that I'm sitting here,
I'm...

I just wish I could have
all that time back.

Which I know
is not reasonable.

And you should know
it's okay to say no.

To what?

I don't know yet.

But first I have to
tell you something.

Hey, Dan.

I thought you said you came here
a minimum three times a week.

I think I said "on average,"
didn't I?

I was supposed to be
meeting someone here,

but he had to take off
before I arrived.

He's working on a case.
He's in Investigation Bureau.

So, this woman disappears
about a month ago,

hasn't used her phone,
credit cards,

left her passport.

Her car was missing until today,
but we finally found it.

And I'm not saying
I want her to be,

but I hope she's in the trunk.
Right, Scanlon?

I'm innocent.

Meatballs
are good here.

Even if they were bad,
they'd still be pretty good.

That's how I feel
about meatballs.

So, what if she's not?
In the trunk?

Well, I've been waiting
to find the wife so I can
charge the husband,

and I've been trying to find the
car so I could find the wife.

So you need her
to be in there.

Right, because your worst fear
in a case without a body is that

there you are standing up
in court, middle of the trial,

and then the doors fly open
and your victim walks in.

Are you worried
about that?

Are you not sure
about the husband?

Does some part of you think that
the wife is gonna walk in?

No. I know she isn't.

I need to say this
to your face,

even if you don't
believe me.

I did not kill that woman.

Alex Forrest. I--

Yes, you did.

No, Ellen. No.
No, no, no. You--

You said that you did.
What?

You lost control,
in a rage,

and she didn't matter,
so then you took her life.

You were there?
You asked me to come.

Ellen, I didn't--
You should have tol--

I didn't know that you
were going to be there.

So then what would you have said
if you knew that I was?

Because what I heard was
that you killed her.
That's what I heard.

Ellen, I had to say that.
It's what they want to hear.

If you don't say that,
then nothing else matters.

Okay, so then you don't
think about her.

I am never not
thinking about her

unless I'm thinking
about you.

And I know how all this
must sound.

I did not kill her.

To be free,

I had to say that I did.

To be here.

But I am now.

And I'm going to prove it.

Irresistible impulses
do not lend themselves

to planning, over time,
without urgency.

They are not defined by having
the opportunity to act

and then not doing so.

Irresistible impulses
are irresistible.

Irresistible impulses
do not lend themselves

to planning over time
without urgency.

The thing that's most exciting
about this show is--

it's in the title.
You know what happens.
