BULL:
You want to rent out
the algorithm?

MARISSA:
To bring in revenue,
shore up our finances? Yes.

What I don't need is somebody
going behind my back.

I've been in front of you
the whole time.

You just refuse to see me.

You okay?After Benny left,

I thought he would offer me
this office.

One of the firms circled back

and asked me if I would
work for them in-house.

And what did you say?

I am considering a Plan B.

MAN: Gun![gunshots]

[dogs barking]

[woman speaking indistinctly]

[gun clatters]

WOMAN:
Don't go out there!

NYPD.
Police officers.

NYPD. Stay back.

Stay back.
Go back inside.

84 Adam to Central.

Ten-85.

Shots fired.
Repeat, shots fired.

Suspect is down.
Need a bus ASAP.

DISPATCHER: Copy that.You see the money?

Nothing.

Well, it's-it's got to be here.
Check again.

[indistinct radio chatter]

[siren approaching]

Where's the money?

Did we get the wrong guy?

[sirens wailing]

CHUNK:
His name's Corey Rice.

Had a job as
a security guard,

and he was on his way to work
when the cops came after him.

They were looking
for a guy

who was robbing
check cashing stores.

How'd they end up
targeting him?

The NYPD uses a facial
recognition software

made by a company called
Viridipoint AI.

They ID'd Corey
as the robber

from some security
camera footage,

and the cops went
to arrest him.
Okay.

He didn't have anything
to do with the robbery?

They found that out
after he was dead.
Yeah.

The city settled with his
mother for $2.5 million.

Wow.

[scoffs]

That's gonna be inadequate
next to the loss of her son.

Yeah.

If she's settled,
what does she want with us?

Corey was my rock.

Cancer took his father.

[sighs]

I've seen firsthand
what can happen to a boy

when his father
is taken from him.

My Corey decided
just to grow up, then and there.

13 years old,
acting like it was his job

to take care of me.

Sounds like he was
a fine young man.

He was studying criminal justice
at John Jay.

He wanted to be one of them,

and they shot him.

They shot my baby.

CHUNK:
Mrs. Rice,

obviously, what
happened to your son

was a tragedy.

But since you accepted
a settlement from the NYPD,

what is it you'd like
for us to do?

That settlement's blood money
as far as I'm concerned.

I'll never touch a penny of it
for myself.

I'm going to use it
to make sure no other mothers

lose their babies

because they were
misidentified.

Let me show you something.

This is the mugshot

of the man
who was ultimately arrested

for robbing those stores.

Doesn't look anything
like Corey.

VERNICE:Their complexions
are different.

He's, like, ten years
and 20 pounds off.

And this is the photo

from the security camera

from the robbery.

Somehow, when this image
was uploaded into Viridipoint's

facial recognitionprogram,

it gave the police
my son's name.

Viridipoint sent

armed men to hunt my child
like an animal.

So, you want to sue Viridipoint
for wrongful death?

They put a target
on my son's back.

I want them held accountable.

Mrs. Rice, I hear you,
but we'd be asking

a jury to assign blame
to someone

after another party effectively

accepted responsibility
by paying you

a financial settlement.

I know it'll be a fight.

[grunts] I'm afraid
it's more than that.

If we win,

then the settlement's
just gonna be about money--

blood money, as you put it.

VERNICE:If I hit them
where they live,

cost them enough,

maybe they'll think twice

before they let the cops
use their software.

They'll change their ways

before another
innocent man is killed.

Corey's death
has got to mean something.

It's got to.

CHUNK:
You don't like this case,
do you?

Well, we got to convince a jury
that a bunch of coders

are liable for a killing
they didn't take part in,

witness,
or even know about.

I know it's gonna be
a difficult case,

but don't you think that
this company bears

some responsibility?[sighs]

I don't care if
it's difficult.

I care about getting this
mother what she needs.

What's that mean?She's in pain.

She wants to avenge
her son's death.

Civil litigation is not gonna
get her what she wants.

It's the only way
I know to help her.

I understand that,
but $700 an hour attorney

hammering out another settlement
for her, that's just...

not gonna bring her joy.

Wait a second.

What's going on there?

Is that Marissa having
a sit-down with Bradley Lena?

Looks like it.

BULL:
He just won that big

gender discriminationlawsuit.

Did she tell you
she was meeting with him?

Well, she said she
was meeting someone.

She didn't say it was him.

That was a very
lawyerly response.I'm a lawyer.

So, she said she was meeting
someone, but she didn't say...

I didn't say it like that, Bull....it was Bradley Lena?

I'm gonna find out
what's going on.

MARISSA:
She was a kid. [laughs]

Hey!

Oh. Bull.
Hi.

Uh, Bradley,
this is...

Jason Bull. How are you?

Uh, by the way,
congrats on that big win.

Couldn't have happened
to a nicer oil company.

Well, thank you, uh...

You know, you take some
cases for the principle,

you take some
for the payday.

Sometimes, you win the
lotto and get both.

[Bull chuckles]

So, what's going on?

You guys discussing a way
our shops can team up?

Actually, I was interested
in learning more

about TAC's jury algorithm.

We have a different
approach to voir dire,

and Ms. Morgan agreed
to talk me through yours.

Really?

Uh-- No. Thank you for trying.

You don't need to lie for me.

We're here to talk about a job.

Oh. What kind of case is it?

No. A job.

With Bradley.

For me.

Oh.

♪

TAYLOR:
Facial recognition works
by making a map of the face

and measuring
certain features:

the space
between the eyes,

the distance
from the chin to the nose.

Then it runs the results
through databases

looking for a match.

It's a highly sophisticated
tool, but, as we've seen

from Corey Rice's tragic case,
it's not always accurate,

and, unfortunately,

these systems often misidentify
the faces of people of color.

Yeah, well, black and brown
folks been catching hell

while companies
like V-Point

have been cashing in.

It's the same song.
It's a different verse.

I think this is
on those cops.

All they had to do
was look at Corey Rice

before they opened fire.

Instead, they were cowboys,
and they came in hot.

That's what the other side's
gonna say.

And what are we saying?

We're saying that
V-Point was negligent,

which led the cops
to target Corey,

convinced that he was
the man that they wanted.

V-Point lied, and Corey died.

Well, it has a ring to it.
Can you prove it?

We're gonna try.

If we can prove that their
software isn't as accurate

as they claim,
I think we're home free.

We need to know
if any other departments

have had cases like this.

Cops who were misled
by over-reliance

on V-Point's facial rec.

I'll see what I can find, but...

I still think Corey Rice's death
is on those cops.

Yeah, I heard you
the first time.

Hi. Can we talk?

Let's.

I want to apologize.

That is not how
I wanted you to find out

that I was considering
another job.

First of all,
I completely understand.

It's not my first rodeo.
I've seen this tactic before.

Tactic?

Yeah. You want to talk
about a raise,

so you let me know
somebody else is interested.

I get it. It's just that we've
worked together a long time,

and I think you could've just
come and talked to me about it.

Okay, Bull, it's not a tactic.

I'm considering leaving TAC

and going to work
for Bradley Lena.

Why?

Well, I think it's...

pretty clear that I've been...

unhappy for a while.

Really? Is it clear?

It's not to me.

Oh, come on.
I-I've tried and tried

to talk to you about this.

The fight we had

about me licensing
the algorithm.

Yeah. Didn't we work that out?No, we didn't work it out.

You got arrested,

which made everything
about you, again.

Yeah, I'm-I'm so sorry
that my getting arrested

got in the way
of your self-actualization.

That is not what
I am talking about.

Okay. Let's just
cut to the chase.

What is it that you want?

It's time for a little
transparency here, I think.[door opens]

Hi. Hello. I know, I know,

I'm sorry to interrupt,
it's just the office is locked.

Uh, what office?Benny's old office.

Benny's office?

He said I could use it
because it's empty.

He didn't tell you?

I must have missed that
in all the transparency.

Why don't I go grab you a key?

IZZY:
Thanks.

What did I just walk into?

[sighs]

MARISSA: [sighs]
What a day.

Yeah.

I did not see the whole Izzy
in Benny's office thing coming.

Me neither.

I'm scared this means
you're gonna leave.

Right now,
all it means is

I am going home

and pouring myself
a beautiful glass of wine.

What is going on
with your computer?What?

Whoa, whoa!
Someone's attacking my system.

MARISSA:
Who?

I-I don't know.
I just managed

to get past Viridipoint's
proxy firewall.

So it's someone
from V-Point?

I don't think so.
I think this is someone else.

[computer chimes]

"Back off"?

No, no, no.

I'm locked out.

I've been hijacked.

You want a glass
of wine, too?

[elevator bell chimes]

BULL:
Mrs. Rice,

it's just pretrial
motions today.

You don't have to be here.

Oh, I'm here, every day.

You don't have
to worry about that.

Hey. You're from
TAC, right?

Vijay Paterson,
counsel for Viridipoint.

We're in 1138.
Motion's been reassigned.

Reassigned? What judge?

Preston.Preston? Never heard of him.

It's a her.

She's new. Just appointed.

Is new good?

We're gonna find out.VIJAY: Your Honor,

my client understands
the emotions involved,

but the fact remains,
Viridipoint had no duty of care

to Corey Rice.

That duty rested solely
with the NYPD officers

at the scene.

As such, we ask
the court to grant

our motion to dismiss.

Your Honor, Viridipoint's
facial recognition software

falsely identified

Corey Rice
as a dangerous suspect.

Mr. Rice's fatal shooting
at the hands of police

who relied on the accuracy
of that software proves

conclusively that

the duty of care rests
with Viridipoint.

Isn't it the NYPD's job

to properly train its officers

how to use tools
such as facial recognition?

That's true, Your Honor, but...I'm skeptical

that you have grounds
for wrongful death here.

One moment, please, Your Honor.

Just a hunch, but I don't
think she's buying it.

Well, she's a new judge.

She's just trying
to make her mark.

You got a Plan B?

I could argue
a civil rights violation,

but that's more of a stretch
than wrongful death.

I doubt she'll go
for that either.

Well, we need something
she will go for.

Well, do you have
any suggestions?

'Cause in about ten seconds,
she's about to toss our case,

and then we're nowhere.

Okay, well, I'll come
up with something,

just keep her talking.

Your Honor,
if it please the court,

we would like to amend
our existing complaint.

Taylor, can you boot up
your hard drive,

or whatever it is
you do with that thing.

Now isn't a great time.BULL: Oh.

I'm sorry.
I will try and arrange

my emergencies better
in the future.

I'd love to help. I can't.
We're completely off-line and...

[computer whirring]

Oh, wait. We're back.

We're on line.

Great. Listen, I need you
to do something for me.

Yes, in about ten minutes
when my system reboots.

[sighs] I don't have time.

You know what? Never mind.

Viridipoint
is a corporate entity.

How does your
civil rights claim apply?

Law enforcement is
a state function, Your Honor.

By providing investigative leads
to the NYPD,

Viridipoint is, in effect,
a state actor.

[clicks tongue]

I don't see it.

Nice try, but I'm afraid
we're gonna...

[fire alarm blaring]

All right, everyone,
take it easy.

We'll have
a brief recess

while we get this sorted out.[bangs gavel]

Everyone out
this way, please.

Did you...?I plead the Fifth.
Let's go.

We got five minutes
to come up with an argument

that Judge Preston
won't kick.

The judge called

V-Point's facial recognition
program a tool.

Yeah. "A tool is only as good
as the user" argument, yeah.Right.

So Corey Rice died
because V-Point's tool,

its... product,

didn't work as advertised,

and that's not on the user.
That's false advertising.

Wait a minute, you want to sue
for deceptive trade practice?

Well, Don Quixote, you wanted
to tilt at windmills. Try it.

I got to go.You're not sticking around
for this?

Well, some schmuck
pulled the fire alarm.

I can't stick around for that.

CHUNK:
Viridipoint misrepresented

material facts to their
customers to perpetrate a fraud,

and in so doing engaged

in a pattern of deceptive
trade practices, Your Honor.

Vernice Rice wasn't a customer
of Viridipoint, Your Honor.

In that case, I don't see
how she has standing.

Remington v. Soto,
Your Honor,

where the Supreme Court upheld
the lower court's decision

to allow the parents
of Sandy Hook victims

to sue
the gun manufacturer Remington

for marketing their guns
in a manner

that would inspire
the shooter.

That is a novel argument.

I'd like to see if you
can make that stick.

Motion to dismiss
is denied,

but good luck

convincing the jury, Mr. Palmer.

[bangs gavel]

I just spoke
to a friend at DHS.

She said the hack
used to shut us down

looks like the work
of a penetration tester

known as "Tidal."

What's a penetration tester?

They're hackers who test
defenses in corporate systems.

They look for holes,

and when they find them,
sell the information

to the company
so they can fix them.

I was working a hole
in V-Point's firewall.

I guess Tidal thought
I was competition,

so she gave me a shove
to get me to back off.

What do you want to do?

Pay.

Money's the only thing

hackers like this
pay attention to.

How much?

20,000.

You can have five,
and get a receipt.

No problem.

Hackers love
to give receipts.

[elevator bell chimes]

Chunk called. I will adjust
the juror algorithm

to account for the
new cause of action.

Deceptive trade
practices, right?

That's what
he sold them on.

I need you to help me

prepare someone
to take over the board

in case you leave us
while we're working on this one.

I won't walk out on you
in the middle of a case.

Give me some credit.

Well, I would have
before yesterday.

All right, we have worked
together for 12 years.

I know. Oh, is that
Mr. Lena checking in?

All due respect,
that's none of your business.

Okay.

Listen. I think we can handle
this one without you.

You got a lot going on.
You got a new job to consider,

a lot on your plate.
We got this one.

I... Who'll run the board?

I will.

Hey.
Hi.

Is everything
all right?
Yup.

Look, if Benny's
office is an issue,

I can find
another place.

The office
is not the problem.

Well, Jason mentioned that

you got a job offer,
and that you've been unhappy.

At least he heard me
this time.

He needs you.

TAC cannot work
without you,

and he knows it.
Really?

Is that why he just
pulled me from the case?

Well... [chuckles]
I never said

he's not an
idiot, but...

Don't you dare say that
his heart's in the right place.

He has been dismissing me
and my ideas for months.

Look, I love TAC.

I helped build it.

It's my home.

I want to stay, but...

if he won't listen to me,

won't acknowledge
what I'm bringing to the table,

how can I?

Excuse me.

Hey, um...
[clears throat]

[sighs] I'm having
computer problems.

Have you tried unplugging it
and plugging it back in?

I think it's a little more
complicated than that.

Maybe Tidal can help?

That's you, right?

I can't help you.

You shut down my system

because I found a gap
in Viridipoint's AI firewall.

I need that gap to stay open.

[clears throat]

$5,000.

It's yours...

if you leave me alone.

Oh, I'm gonna need... [exhales]

...$20,000 for that
to be worth my while.

I don't have that.

Then you still got a problem.

Sorry, soccer mom.

Uh, for the record,
my son does not play soccer,

and I pulled off
the Whisper Mode hack

while you were still
dancing on your bed

under a poster of Avril Lavigne,

so bite me.

Yo.

No way you pulled
off Whisper Mode.

Oh, yeah, I did.

Prove it.

The point was
to remain anonymous.

I didn't keep a bunch
of hard evidence against myself.

Okay, well I know
a little bit about it.

Tell me something
you can't read on Wikipedia.

Um...

Okay.

everyone thinks I hacked

the FBI, DHS, and GCHQ,
but I also hacked NASA.

That's not generally known
because it was classified.

Respect.

Does that mean you'll back off
and let me do my work?

Won't matter
if I back off.
Why not?

That hole in the firewall
you were working?

Viridipoint plugged it
up this morning.

Great.

I might know

some other ways
into their servers.

I could show you.

BULL:
Testing.

Testing one, two, three.

Rubber baby buggy bumper.
Rubber baby buggy bumper.

Bull? Please stop.

Just warming up my lips.

So, has our data scientist
taken the stand yet?

So help me God.Just sworn in.

Now, keep him out of the weeds.

Nothing loses a jury faster

than five-dollar words
and tech jargon.

Dr. Gasden,

you are an expert
in artificial intelligence,

particularly with
facial recognition, correct?

Yes.

Doctor, I'd like to show you
a photograph

of some footage from the

security camera
that the police used

to falsely identify

Corey Rice
as a suspect. Now,

in your expert opinion,

is this footage conducive

to finding an accurate match
using facial recognition?

No.

The dark lighting
and obscured facial features

in that recording are...

far from ideal.

Given those conditions,

the accuracy would only be
somewhere between...

Mm...

36 and...

87%.

BULL [over earbud]:
Chunk, do something.

They're falling asleep.

Far from the 99.7%

that V-Point touts.

Can you explain
this discrepancy?

It has to do with
eigenface values.

BULL:
Reel him back, Chester.

Okay, um... [chuckles]

Can you explain that
in layman's terms?

What you're really describing

is a set of eigenvectors

relating to
the computer vision problem

of human face recognition.BULL:
[sighs] We're in the weeds.

We are deep in the weeds.

Well, you lost the jury
with Dr. Nerdly.

If I didn't have someone
doing color commentary

in my ear the whole time,

I would've had a better
control of him.
Hey.

Found a possible
witness for you.

Salvador Johns.
Hartford PD.

Retired.

How can he help us?

Well, he shot a man
during a traffic stop.

The victim was
a Black HR manager

who was misidentified as the
suspect in a police shooting.

And he's willing to testify?Oh, yeah.

The way he sees it,
V-Point ruined his life.

Well, that's two people
that have been

misidentified by V-Point.

The jury's got to feel that.

You don't sound enthusiastic
about him.

I don't like giving cops

an excuse for killing
innocent people.

I hear what you're saying,
but we've got to do something

that's gonna break through
to this jury.

We don't have a choice, Bull.
We have got to put him up.

[laptop beeps]

And you're in.

And...

here's your cash.

I never would've
found that.

Thank you.

What are you
looking for?

Some information Viridipoint
really doesn't want us to have

that'll prove
they're responsible

for an innocent
man's death.

Well, if it's super-secret,

probably not gonna find it
on their servers.

Where would I find it?

The CEO, Voight,

he has an air-gapped computer
at his house.

No connection to the Internet.
I would guess,

for top secret stuff.

So, I'd have to...

physically get inside his house?

If you want
what's on that server.

Yeah, I think that would involve

going a little further
outside the lines

than I'm comfortable with.

This from the woman
who pulled off Whisper Mode?

I hate to admit it,
but I was younger then.

Maybe I am a bit
of a soccer mom now.

Well, if you change your mind,

I've got some ideas.
Might be fun.

I'm sure it would be.

[chuckles]

Hey, thanks again.

No problem.

CHUNK:
Mr. Johns, is it fair to say

that Viridipoint put a target

on the back
of an innocent man?

I never would've
gone at him like that

if Viridipoint's facial rec
hadn't positively identified him

as the maniac
who shot two cops.

I feel terrible
about what happened.

I killed an innocent person.

I have to live with that
every day.

CHUNK:So, the information
provided to you

by Viridipoint convinced you

that you needed to use
lethal force?

Yes, absolutely.

Nothing further, Your Honor.

Jury's with you. Nice work.

VIJAY:
Mr. Johns,

how long were you with
the Hartford Police Department

before you were fired?

I wasn't fired.

My mistake.

How long before you

left the department?

15 years.

In those 15 years,
you had more than a dozen

excessive force complaints
against you, isn't that true?

SALVADOR:
Every cop on the
street gets those.

Look at my record.
I was never formally disciplined

because I did
the job right.

Hmm. How many
of those complaints

were filed by African Americans?

I mean...

my precinct was 80 to 90% Black.

It's only natural.

VIJAY:
It's only natural

that you assault
African Americans,

or it's only natural
that none of their complaints

led to any charges?

Objection.
Inflammatory.

Sustained.

The innocent man you shot,

he was African American,
wasn't he?

Yes. But that's not...

Is that why you opened fire?
Because it was only natural?

Objection, Your Honor,

the counsel is badgering
the witness.

PRESTON:
Sustained.

Dial it back, Counselor.

I'll rephrase.

Isn't it true that 12 of
the 13 complaints against you

were filed by African Americans?

SALVADOR:
I know what you're
trying to do.

You're trying to paint me
like I'm some kind of a racist.

Are you a racist?

I don't have a racist bone
in my body.

My partner was Black.

Oh, no.

[sighs]

Damn it.

VIJAY:
No further questions.

PRESTON:
Court will take a brief recess.

[gavel bangs]

Mrs. Rice.

Mrs. Rice.

Please, can we talk?

Can we talk?
Mrs. Rice, please, listen,

listen.
I am so sorry.

I know that
you're angry.

Since the day my son
was taken from me,

all I've been is angry.

Anger won't bring him back.

I know I should've prepared you
for that witness.

I...
You should know

I would rather lose

than have a man like that

speak for my son.

I understand,
but we have to

try to show the jury
what V-Point has done,

and he was a way
to do that.

The only reason
I'm holding onto this pain,

the senselessness
of all of this,

is to make my son's death
mean something.

I want that, too.If you thought

putting a man who robbed another
Black mother of her child

on the stand
was the right thing to do,

then you never understood
what I was trying to accomplish,

and you damn sure
never understood my son.

Hey.

Hey, yourself.

Heard court was
a little rough.

That's one way
to describe it.

You'll get the jury back.
You always do.

I wouldn't be
so sure of that.

I don't even know if we're
gonna get the client back.

Did you find any

test results,
anything that would prove

V-Point's facial rec
is not as accurate

as they claim?No.

I've looked
all over their system.

Nothing that can help us.

That's too bad.
I really could've use that data.

There is...

actually one other thing
I could try.

Great. What is it?

The less you know
about it, the better.

[clears throat]

Tidal.

Soccer mom.

You still up for an adventure?

[sighs]

[sighs]

[clears throat softly]

BULL:
22 floors. Not a word.

[sighs] How's it
gotten this bad?

Well, she seemed pretty upset
when I spoke to her.

Really?

What did she say?

That she loves TAC,

but she feels
disrespected.

Disrespected?

I mean, we had our disagreements
over the year, but...

disrepect-- I mean...

I-I have the utmost
respect for Marissa.

Well, I can't speak to
what happened between you two.

I'm just telling you
how she feels.
[sighs]

I know.

So, what did
you tell her?

I said she should do

whatever makes
her happy.

I thought you were on my side.

I am on your side.

Your side wants Marissa happy.Really...

You know, I asked her
what she wanted.

She just wouldn'ttell me.

[sighs]

My dear,

lovely,

sometimes self-obsessed
husband,

has it been possible
that she's been

telling you what she needs,
and you haven't been listening?

Oh.

Yeah. So...

Tell me what I should do.

She's trying to decide
what's right for her.

Make staying at TAC
her best choice.

[car alarm chirps]

I like the outfit.

Bloomingdales,

Fall Misdemeanor
Collection?

Funny.

Did you get me
a Trojan Horse?

I went through Voight's
credit card transactions.

He ordered a speaker just like
this one two days ago.

If we leave it
on his doorstep,

he'll think it just
arrived early.

So... what's it
delivering?

This is a Raspberry Pi with
a few tweaks of my own design.

Once it's inside,

it can use any
nearby Wi-Fi signal

to infiltrate Voight's
entire home network,

even... [clicks tongue]
...his air-gapped server.

Slick.

Fun working outside
the lines, isn't it?

You know, when you
hijacked my system,

I wanted to punch you
in the face, but...
[chuckles]

I have to admit,
I kind of needed this.

Cool.
[chuckles]

[elevator bell chimes]

Can we talk?

[sighs]

There is no TAC without you.

And I know I haven't
always acted like that.

I am sorry.

Thank you.

I know I can be
a little inflexible.

[laughs] Really?
Yeah.

I want you to have
whatever it is you need

to be happy here at TAC,

and I will match
whatever it is

Mr. Bradley Lena
is offering you, plus 20%.

[chuckles] And it's

your algorithm, so whatever
you want to do with it,

we will do.

And the office.

Obviously.

You will have your own office.

[sighs]

That's very generous, Bull.

Give me time to think about it.

I don't need to think about it.

The answer is yes.

Good answer.

Now, I'm gonna go back to work.

Morning.

Did that plan I'm not
supposed to know about

produce anything
I should know about?

Well, I was able to access
Voight's private,

air-gapped server but, sadly,

I didn't find any test results,

just some financial documents.

Well, thanks
for trying anyway.

I just got a text
from V-Point's attorney.

They want to discuss
a settlement.

But they're winning.

That's what's weird,

but Bull always said
that he thought this thing

would end up
in a settlement conference.

I guess he was right.

What happens now?

Convince our client to accept
a settlement she doesn't want

or lose in court.

CHUNK:V-Point's offer
is substantial.

BULL:And they've agreed
to suspend licensing

the facial recognition
software to

New York state law enforcement.

The police couldn't
use it anymore?

In New York state.

Elsewhere, they can.

Where's the other shoe?
What do they want?

There's a non-disparagement
clause, which means that

you would have to refrain from
making any public statements

that were critical
of V-Point or its technology,

forever.

They want me to go away.

Forget Corey ever existed.

They are buying
your silence, yes.

That money they're offering...

I know charities that could
put it to good use.

And for the NYPD to give up
facial recognition...

That's something.

BULL:
It is, and

if we go in front of a jury,

I promise you,

you'll get nothing,
absolutely nothing.

Would you sign it?

If it meant I had to be silent
about the death of my child,

I would politely tell them
how to fold that offer,

and I would tell them
exactly where to put it.

I wasn't raised to be a quitter.

No sense starting now.

VERNICE:
Corey always called me

as soon as he
got to work.

He worked a lot of nights.

Didn't matter how late,

he always made sure
to let me know

he was all right...

but not that night.

Mrs. Rice,

when you found out
that Corey was dead,

did the authorities tell you
what had happened?

I was told my son

had been misidentified

by an algorithm.

An algorithm.

How can you protect
against an algorithm?

I taught my son

keep your hands in the open,

walk, don't run.

"Yes, Officer.

No, Officer."

That's what we need
to teach our children

so they can get through
this world.

To survive.

He did everything
he was supposed to,

but they still put
a target on his back

because some machine
said it was all right.

Mrs. Rice, you don't believe

Viridipoint's claim of being

99.7% accurate, do you?

Not for my son.

Not for anyone whose
skin looked like his.

He was a fine
young man,

and he would've had so
much to give this world

if someone at Viridipoint hadn't

thrown up their hands
and said, "Close enough."

No.

I can't accept that.

Not if "close enough"

means someone else might
have to bury their child.

[inhales]

[softly]:
No.

CHUNK:I have nothing further,
Your Honor.

Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury,

have you reached a verdict?

JURY FOREMAN:
We have, Your Honor.

We the jury find the defendant,

Viridipoint AI,

not liable under
the consumer protection laws

of the State of New York.

PRESTON:
The court thanks the members

of the jury
for their service.

Court is adjourned.[gavel bangs]

Mrs. Rice, I'm not sure
I deserve that.

You let my son speak.

Everyone in this courtroom
knows who he was

and what was taken from him.

You gave me that much.

We still lost,

and I don't know why
I'm not surprised.

Corey used to say,

"Fight for keeps,

so you can keep fighting."

So, keep fighting.

Keep fighting.

Goodbye, Dr. Bull.

It's been an honor,
Mrs. Rice.

BULL:
I keep thinking about
V-point's settlement offer.

What about it?

Well, people try to settle
'cause they're scared of losing.

Yeah, usually.

When they made the offer,
they were winning, no question,

so what are they
scared of?

The financial documents
that Taylor dug up

contain two sets of books.
One public, one private.

V-Point's a publicly
held company.

If they've been feeding
investors fake numbers,

that is securities fraud.

MARISSA:
Yup.

Securities fraud?
What did I miss?

I think we just figured out why
V-Point was so keen to settle.

MARISSA:
Their offer came right after

Taylor hacked into Voight's
super-secret computer,

which made us wonder if he knew
he'd been hacked and was scared

about what
we might find.

So, Voight offered
to settle,

so we would stop digging
and not find his cooked books.

He must've crapped his pants
when we turned him down.

He thought we were
gonna bust him.

Well, is there anyone
stopping us from doing that now?

MARISSA:Well, the way Taylor
got these was not what

you'd call kosher.

We release them, we put her
in legal jeopardy.

Right, but there's got to be
a way around that.

Hey, doesn't the SEC
have an anonymous tip line?

Why, yes.

Yes, it does.

REPORTERS: Mr. Voight!
Mr. Voight! Mr. Voight!

What do you have to say
about the accusations?

They just said Voight
is facing 20 years

and up to $12 million
in fines.

Yeah, and the company's
filing for bankruptcy.

So long, Viridipoint.

This just came
for you. Wine club?

Not unless you signed me up.

Who's that from?

Me,

a long time ago.

I'm going to get some food.
Want to come?

Uh, thanks, but...

I need to make a call.

[video call ringing]

Marissa!

Oh...

Why do I feel like a man
who's about to be let down easy?

Bradley, your offer
was incredibly generous,

but...

I'm afraid my answer is no.

Well... you'd be a tremendous
asset to any company

for all the reasons
I've stated repeatedly,

but the thing I like
about you most of all

is your sense of loyalty.

Thank you.

Look, I know we went over

the compensation package
earlier, but...

there was one perk
I didn't mention.

Can I show it to you?

Sure.

[computer chimes]

What do you think?

[knocks on wall]You got a minute?

Hey. You bet I do.

In fact...

I'm glad you came by,

because I got
a little something

I wanted us to share once
you signed your deal memo,

but, what the heck,
let's crack her open now.

2010 Barolo.

Don't ask how much
it cost, 'cause...

it would make me blush.

You didn't have to do that.

Yes, I did, and
that is precisely

the point.

[bottle pops][sighs]

Isn't that the best sound
in the world?

I have to tell you something.

You're leaving...

to work with Lena.

I'm sorry.

[sighs]

[chuckles] But...

Okay.

We... did talk,

and I was giving you everything

that you wanted.You are.

But...

What is he giving you?

You... Okay.

You want your name
above the door?

You never asked for that.

Mm, you're right, I didn't.

With him, I didn't have to.

Okay, well, technically,
my name's not above the door

'cause it's just TAC,
but if you would like to change

the name of the company...I want to be somewhere

my value is known.You are...

Not something that I have
to argue for or negotiate.

I'm gonna go get my things.

I'll be out in an hour.

[whispers]:
Goodbye.
