[ Ally Narrating ]
I love Christmas.

All the things that bug me during the year
don't bug me at Christmas.

People smiling, me smiling.

The star is the best part.

Dad said as you reach to put
the star onto the tree,

you're really reaching for
your own star in life.

[ Gasps, Groans ]

[ Thinking ]
Maybe she won't notice.

It's come to this--
You're humping the tree.

-Damn it, Renee! Just help me down!
-[ Laughing ]

Oh!
Just help me down.

Wait, wait.

Oh.
Come on.

Come here.
Okay.

Oh. Oh!

[ Chuckling ] You put this tree up
too early. It's gonna dry out!

I like to enjoy Christmas
for a full month, Renee.

And besides, if you wait too long,
you can't get a good tree.

I'm surprised you even like the holidays.
It's the loneliest time of the year.

I've booked myself solid.
Don't worry.

I've got Dip-Chin
tomorrow night and, ugh--

I'm already starting
to get the "ick" on him.

Already?
Yeah.

He's too white bread.

-Hey! I got an idea. Come with me.
-On your date?

I'll rub your feet after.

You, me and Thousand Island Face?
No, thanks!

Come on. It will help.

If I'm getting the "ick," you can take
the pressure off of the date.

Bring that little Biscuit
along and I'll go.

John Cage?
He's cute.

You and John Cage?

Well, you never know.
A little yuletide catnip might be fun.

Oh, Renee,
he's a little weird.

You forget
I like weird.

[ Groans ]

H-How has it come to this?
We're smart women.

We're fairly attractive.
I'm even hot.

Yes, you're even hot.

So why aren't we with hot men?

[ Richard ] Okay. Last up.
Client Christmas parties.

We've been invited to several.

We're going to split them up.
I want them all covered.

They're our clients.
It wouldn't be the holidays

without getting to share their joy.

And above all,
be sincere about it.

Very last up, my Uncle
Kevin Hanson died yesterday.

I'm sorry, Richard.

No biggie. He'd been ill.
It was probably a blessing.

Bygones. But we're having
a little difficulty...

with the church regarding
the memorial service.

-What difficulty?
-Well, he was a bit of an eccentric, and--

Uh, excuse me.

I'd first like to give pause
to absorb his passing.

-Could we all take a moment?
-Okay.

Excellent.

Anyway, various things
marked my uncle's life--

one being his distaste
for short people.

The minister is refusing
to let that part of him be memorialized.

My aunt and I feel it should
be included. It-It was--

He didn't like short people?

At six years old he was bitten by one.
It resonated. What can I say?

Uh--

-What?
-I'm troubled.

Just another moment.

What--What's the matter?

-Richard's uncle died.
-[ Tuneless Whistling ]

He didn't like short people,
and John's troubled.

Billy, can you meet with the minister?
Just talk to him.

I tried, but, uh--It would
be important to my uncle.

I'll talk to him, but--
Thank you.

Adjourned. Done.
Let's go.

[ Chattering ]

Oh, Ms. McBeal?

Will you step up here, please?

[ Thinking ] Oh, God.
Now what have I done?

Sometimes you can obligate yourself
by just being in the room.

I'm sorry?

I'm all out of public defenders,
but I've got one last indigent defendant.

The Commonwealth
thanks you.

Your Honor, um,
I'm afraid of criminals.

Yes. Well, suck it up.

Stephanie Grant. Solicitation.
I'm granting personal.

Check with Probation,
and we'll set up a conference. Next?

Thank you.

[ Clerk ] Case number 52714.
Breech versus Fitzsimmons.

-Child custody modification case.
-Um--

[ Attorney ] Your Honor, our client
moves for a continuance.

Okay. They're gonna take you back
to lockup for a minute...

while I meet
with Probation.

And, um--

-Don't talk to anybody back there, okay?
-Okay.

Daniel Corbett's
the D.A.

It's his third offense.
He's gonna be asking that he do some time.

"He"? "He" who?

She's a boy, Ally.

Stephanie is Stephen.

Oh.

[ Man ] I don't typically edit eulogies.
Believe me, I don't.

But I can't just let you get up there
and unload on small people.

-I won't be unloading.
-Oh, come on, Richard. I knew your uncle.

Reverend, Mr. Hanson's life
was made up of a lot of eccentricities.

-We should be allowed to talk about that.
-There have to be limits.

Now, I won't allow this church
to get involved--

My uncle helped build
half this church.

Richard, be reasonable.

I have a lot of
short-statured congregants.

Mark, remember
when my uncle came here?

Of course I do.

Switched from being a Lutheran
to a Baptist, just to come to this church?

Yes.
And why did he come to you?

Because he didn't like the minister
at the other place.

-What specifically did he object to?
-He was tiny.

And as a result of that other
minister being tiny,

your church
has received a lot of money.

I understand. And believe me,
my board knows the money at stake.

They've all but ordered me
to wear lifts.

But I won't allow you to
get up there at a podium...

and talk about your uncle
hating little people.

It's bigotry.

Okay, we have two different ways
to go on this,

and they both have
negative sides,

so you're gonna have to
think about it.

Okay.
Okay, we could plea.

And that would be your best chance
at a reduced sentence,

but it still would
mean jail time.

Prison?

Well, I could ask
for county, but...

with your two previous convictions,
Stephanie, we are looking at some time.

Well, what--what's
the other way to go?

Well, um, we could
plead not guilty...

and try to win
on the elements and--

The problem there is
that you solicited an undercover cop.

And with the two priors,

I--I really don't
think we could win.

And if we lost,
once we were in trial,

we'd be looking at more jail time
than we would be on a plea.

Lose the file?
Oh, come on, Renee.

I don't ask for that much.
Why--Why can't you just--

You want me to steal the file,
lose it, so that you can--

-If you could have seen his face.
-I've seen his face.

He's gorgeous. It's just,
I'm not gonna lose the file.

Just this once?
I'll tell another joke at the bar.

It won't be as funny
as this here.

Renee.
Ally?

Renee.
Ally?

This boy needs help.

He's--
Can-Can you imagine?

He-He is the most fragile person,
living in the harshest of worlds.

He's obviously not well.
He--

Oh. Um--

Excuse me. I--

[ Men Arguing ]

[ Car Alarm Wailing ]

[ Knocking ]

[ Knocking Continues ]

-Who is it?
-Stephanie, it's Ally.

Oh! Can you wait
one second?

Sure.

[ Man, Woman Arguing
In Spanish ]

Hey.
Hey.

Hey. Um--Oh.

-I'm sorry to intrude.
-Oh, it's okay. It's okay.

But I have an idea, and I've been
doing research for the last hour.

-And these are beautiful.
-Oh. I made them.

[ Siren Wailing ]

You--

-You made this?
-Oh, yeah.

Won't I be a beautiful bride?

Oh! You know,
you should do this.

Now, if I could only
latch on to a husband.

Well, if you go to prison,
you'll have plenty of time to be a wife!

Oh, my God! I--

No, no, I-I have a way
with Freudian slips.

So do I.
I'm wearing one.

[ Chuckling ]
Oh.

Well, I think there
might be a way for, um--

Hmm--
us to, uh, avoid jail.

How?
Well, it's a long shot,

but I-I think that
we can make it out that--

Well, it--

it's gonna have to be
an insanity defense.

Insanity?
Yeah. It's--

You have to understand,
Stephanie, that this is a legal strategy.

I am not here suggesting
that you are insane.

Well, what's the insanity?

Well, there's, uh,
um, a fetish.

Transvestite fetishism.

I-I think that we can categorize it
as a mental disorder.

You mean,

like--like I'm sick?

Yeah.

I don't want to say
I'm sick.

I know. I know. But the judge is
going to need something legal or--

I mean, the reason
I left home...

is because everybody
called me sick.

That's why I left Ohio.

The goal here
has to be avoiding jail.

Isn't that what you want?

And do you think
they'll let me go?

It's a long shot,
but there's a chance. Yes.

Could you at least think it over?
It's all we have.

[ Chuckles ]

Sure.

I'm open-minded.
[ Chuckling ]

I've been sitting on the bench long enough
to appreciate anything original,

but this takes it
to a next level.

Kevin Hanson's life was marked
by several experiences with short people--

people and events
who affected not just his life,

but influenced who he became.

-A bigot.
-In part, a bigot. Yes. It's who he was.

That doesn't mean my client has to
give him the pulpit to celebrate it.

Richard Fish has no intention of
endorsing his uncle's bigotry.

He just wants to get up
and offer perspective as to how this--

Look! I'm all for free speech.
He can say whatever he wants.

Why should I force the church
to be a forum for it?

Because this church
was his church.

But we tend towards restricting
against bigotry these days.

Have you noticed the rash
of civil rights laws?

Civil rights laws
identify suspect classes.

First it was race, then came religion,
next it was gender.

Now we're up to
sexual orientation.

But there's no special protection
for short people.

And even if there was,
so what?

Kevin Hanson was a good man
in some ways,

a not-so-good man in others.

Why can't his nephew stand up
at his funeral and say that?

What if he hated blacks?
What if?

This whole political correctness thing
is out of control.

First we say you can't act with prejudice.
That's fine.

Then we say you can't
have prejudices.

Now we're saying you can't even talk
about somebody else's prejudices.

This isn't civil rights,
Your Honor.

It's censorship.

Ally.
[ Gasps ]

[ Gasping, Stammering ]

Is there no respect for privacy
in this place?

Elaine told me you'd been
in here for 20 minutes.

I suspected it was more about solitude
than use of the facility.

Is everything okay?

Well, I don't know.

Not to dig into your history
with call girls,

but did you ever defend
a sex offender in court?

[ Stammering ]

♪♪ [ Humming ]

Sometimes it's best to pretend
to have not heard the question.

My prostitute client,
she's really a he.

And I've been thinking about raising
gender identity as a form of insanity.

His arrests go to sexual conduct,
not to wardrobe.

Yeah, but I found
this fetishism thing.

And part of it is the compulsion
to attract men.

John, this is a kid who doesn't
really know what or who he is.

He's alone in a new city,
and he's out on the streets at night...

because it's the only way
he knows how to make his rent.

Get him
to a psychologist.

If you walk into court with any diagnosis
of mental dysfunction at all,

18 years old,
you've got a chance.

Okay.

A brief. Ten pages.
Black letter--

I'm not filing a legal brief, Richard.
We went to court.

I think we've carried this
far enough.

The last I checked, I was senior partner
here. I'm not being stupid about it.

We made the argument.
The judge will rule.

The judge will rule in our favor maybe
if we support our position with a brief.

What the hell is this about?

-I thought you loved your uncle.
-What?

This isn't a tribute,
you saying that he hated short people.

You think this casts him
in a favorable light?

I think you want to trash--

-Don't tell me what I can and cannot--
-You shut up!

This is what he wanted, Billy.
This is what he wanted.

And don't ever accuse--

him of not wanting it.

[ Renee ] What about you
and the doughboy?

-Me and John Cage?
-Mm-hmm.

When you think about it, Ally,

you both kind of circle
the Earth in similar orbits.

-Oh, hey, Steph, are-are you done?
-I guess.

Yeah. Um, Ally, you want
to talk for a second?

Sure.

I'll be right back.

Well, the good news is, you got
something to take into court.

The bad news is that he's
a pretty messed up kid.

-Tell me.
-I can support the fetishism.

And I think he may also suffer
from gender dysphoria,

although I'd need to spend
a lot more time with him...

before I could state
anything conclusive.

What's gender dysphoria?
Simplest terms:

psychologically and emotionally,

he's more like a woman,
or he thinks he is.

Although he doesn't say that.

The one sure diagnosis I can give you
is that he's hugely confused.

-Will you go into court with me?
-Of course.

Although the one thing I can't say is
that there's any legal insanity.

He knows what he was doing
out there on the streets.

With you
it's cheeks and eyes.

Everything you do should be
bringing out those eyes, girl.

And your lips,
you don't have to touch 'em.

Hmm.

Look at these bones.
Hmm.

How'd you learn so much
about this stuff?

Oh, please.

You know how most people
wear clean underwear,

in case they get run over by a car?

They don't want people
to think they're dirty.

With me, all I cared about
was my face.

I used to pray, "Lord,
if I get hit by a bus,

please don't let it be
without makeup."

I've gotta go to my grave
pretty.

Hmm.

Let me see your teeth.

Hmm. Coffee drinker.
I can bleach 'em.

[ Scoffs ]

[ Phone Rings ]
Too much green.

Christmas is green,
Elaine.

I would think it would be
your favorite color anyway.

Oh. Meaning what?

As in envy?

Our office is dominated by blue,
and blue coordinates poorly with green.

Oh, good morning, Billy.
Love your tie.

Well, well,
how would you rule as a judge?

Well, it's a fuzzy line.

You say that acknowledging a prejudice
isn't the same as endorsing it.

I'm not so sure.

You would be acknowledging it in a forum
that comes to celebrate his life.

Hey, that rings
of endorsement.

He was known to eat
an occasional caterpillar.

He--He dyed the hair
inside his ears.

He didn't like short people.
He was a kook! It should be said.

He wanted it said!

Why are you obsessing
on this funeral thing, Richard?

Is it easier to do that
than grieve for him?

I beg your pardon?

I know you were closer to him
than your own father.

-Well, what's the point?
-The point?

I guess there is none.

He was ill for a long time. Whip,
it's a blessing that he finally died.

-Yeah.
-Yeah.

-I've changed my mind!
-You're not changing your mind.

-You can't tell me what to do!
-As your lawyer, I can tell you--

I'm not gonna walk in there
saying I'm a freak!

The objective here
is for you to walk out.

I'm not sick!

This doesn't make me sick!
This doesn't make me a freak!

You asked me last night
why I was doing this.

I'm doing this because when I look at you,
I see a great kid,

but I see a kid
who needs help.

Look at me.

Look at me.

You need to let people
help you.

Start with me.

Trust me, Stephanie,
and I will keep you out of jail.

But you have to trust me.

Transvestite fetishism.
He has all the symptoms.

Intense sexual urges
involving cross-dressing.

It started early
in childhood.

You can--You can read
Dr. Harper's report.

-That doesn't make legal insanity.
-Maybe not.

But I think we can mitigate the intent,
and I don't think any of us want a trial.

-What are you looking for?
-Time suspended.

We are willing to plead so long
as he doesn't go to jail.

Miss Grant, will you excuse us
for a second, please?

Do you think this is really
in his best interest, Ally?

If he walks, he goes back to the streets.
Jail may be safer.

We all know what happens
to kids like this in jail.

And we all know what happens
if he gets free.

He just goes back to what he's been doing.
This is his third time.

Your Honor, this kid doesn't
want to turn tricks. He needs a job.

He needs a fresh start,
and--and maybe--

Who's gonna hire him?

Well, me.

-You?
-Yeah, me. My firm.

-Ally. Ally.
-I know, I know!

But this kid needs a break.

One of my fears, um--

This is not somebody who's joined
another world, Your Honor.

Nobody's welcomed him in.

Right now I think he's
just looking to survive.

He's not really part of
any society at the moment.

He needs counseling,
and if we don't--

Let's just give him a chance and see.
Jail cannot be the answer.

I'll continue this for a year.
No finding.

Conditioned on him being employed,
starting today.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you, thank you.
Thank you.

[ All Squealing ]

I have thought about this
a long, long time.

As a person who was never offered
a basketball scholarship,

I'm a little salty about assisting anybody
who wants to take a smack...

at the vertically challenged.

That's what we call
short people sometimes.

Vertically challenged.

That's politically correct,
isn't it?

[ Sighs ]

Part of living
in a free country,

people should be free.

And though laws should exist
to prevent discrimination,

and though they should exist to prevent
people from acting on prejudice,

nevertheless,

people are entitled
to their bigotries.

And if somebody is stupid
or believes stupid things,

it has to be permissible
at that person's funeral...

for somebody to get up and say,
"Hey, he believed these stupid things."

This totem pole
political correctness thing--

That's stupid.

And at my funeral,
you can say that I said that.

Go ahead, Mr. Fish.

Get up at that podium
and take your uncle's shot.

I won't shrink from it.

Would you?

[ Richard ] First off, I'd just like to
thank you all for coming.

My uncle always said he knew
his memorial service would be filled...

if, for no other reason,

people would want to make sure
he's really dead.

[ Scattered Laughing ]

In addition to being
like a father figure to me,

he was a very special man.

Impulsive, hated diplomacy.

And for his funeral,
it was important to him...

that people just tip their hat...

and remember him.

Remember how he was.

He didn't want tears.

Uh, two days before his death
he squeezed my hand and said,

"Don't let them cry.

"Don't paint me a saint,

and don't let them cry."

So, I won't.

He was good, bad,

caring, insensitive.

He was loud, charitable.

Liked some people for silly reasons,
disliked others for sillier reasons.

He said, "Life's
just a stupid game.

"It doesn't matter what you do
or what you have.

If you're loved in the end,
then you win."

it's a great place to work.

You'll love it.

-I must say that was certainly original.
-Yes, it was.

-Thanks again for coming.
-Hey, Steph.

-Hi! I made this last night.
-For me?

Very simple. Very clean.
You can wear it with a jacket or without.

Oh, my God.
Oh, my God!

I love it. I love it!
I'm gonna try it on right now.

-I think I got the measurements right.
-Where did he get those legs?

You got to admit. It only gets more
interesting around here, doesn't it?

Yeah. Richard?

"Don't let them cry"?

Don't let yourself cry.
That's what it's about, isn't it?

I'm not sure I follow.

I'm sorry...
for your loss.

It's so beautiful,
and it even fits.

We might want to take it in at the waist
just a little.

No. I can eat a doughnut.
It will be perfect.

Stephanie, how can I
ever thank you?

How can you thank--
How can you thank me?

Ally, you saved my life.

[ Toilet Flushing ]

Ladies.

John?

Stephanie made
this dress for me.

Oh! That's quite fetching.

Well, have a good afternoon.
And welcome, Stephanie.

Thank you.

[ Door Opens, Closes ]

-Will you excuse me for a minute?
-Sure.

Um, John?

Uh, I was thinking
last night,

and I'm still not sure
about the work thing,

but, um,

I... really would enjoy
going out to dinner with you.

Oh. Um--

Well, I know--I know you're not
predisposed to evening outings, but no.

I think that when
our orbits cross,

I--I think we have
a lot in common.

-I--
-Well, no. Shall we think about it?

We shall.

Mistletoe.

Well--
[ Chuckling ]

Yes, indeed.

[ Renee ]
What? You kissed him?

It was a little peck
on the cheek.

There was mistletoe.

It was legitimate.

Can I ask you something?
Hmm.

-Have you kissed the rabbi?
-Why?

Why?

'Cause I'm the hot one here, and it's
your lips getting all the ChapStick.

That's because demure
is in, Renee,

and you scare men.
[ Phone Rings ]

Scare men? Yeah.
I scare them stiff.

That's what I do.
[ Chuckling ]

-Hello?
-Ms. Raddick? This is Detective Greene.

-Excuse me?
-Sorry to bother you.

[ Continues, Indistinct ]

Okay.

Take it easy.
Take it easy.

[ Siren Wailing ]

Watch your head.

District attorney.
Okay.

[ Police Radio Chatter ]

I didn't know who else to call
for an I.D.

We got the suspect in custody.
What happened?

The best we can tell, the john went crazy
when he found out the jane was a guy.

It looks like the cause of death
was a trauma to the head.

We called the parents.
They live in Ohio.

They said they won't even come to make
an I.D. That's why I thought--

Take him to the morgue.
We'll I.D. him there.

Ally.

I'm sorry. She can't
be touching the scene.

-They look done.
-Maybe so, but she still can't touch--

[ Renee ]
Leave her be!

Look, she can't contaminate the scene.
I'm the D.A., pulling rank.

Leave her alone.

Why did--

Why did he have to
go back out there?

I mean,
he had a job.

But... why?

We can't answer that.

His parents
didn't even come.

He wasn't alone
in the end.

Ally, he had you.

He didn't die alone.

Is it poss--

Is it possible to love somebody
only two days?

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.
