TRY IT AGAIN.

YOU SOUND LIKE YOUR MOUTH IS FULL OF MASHED POTATOES.

UH... YEAH, I'M SORRY.

DON'T BE SORRY.

JUST SING IT RIGHT!

I THOUGHT IT SOUNDED BEAUTIFUL.

YEAH, YOU WOULD.

I THOUGHT IT SOUNDED BEAUTIFUL.

BET YOU THOUGHT YOUR WIFE SOUNDED GOOD, TOO, HUH?

THERE'S A REASON SHE'S A BACKUP SINGER.

YOU'RE BOTH OFF TODAY.

OKAY, QUIT PLAYING WITH THE MIC STAND

AND DO IT AGAIN.

TRY TO SING LIKE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING THIS TIME.

[STOPPING MID-LYRIC]

LOOK, THIS ISN'T WORKING.

THIS JUST ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH.

I WON'T LET ANYTHING LEAVE MY STUDIO

SOUNDING LIKE THAT.

HEY, YOU, STOP TAKING PICTURES.

GET OUT.

GET OUT!

LOOK, THIS IS OBVIOUSLY NOT WORKING, ALL RIGHT?

LET'S TRY IT AGAIN TOMORROW, ALL RIGHT?

DON'T LISTEN TO THAT CREEP.

YOU WERE GREAT.

HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT EVAN?

NO, I NEED TO... I NEED TO TELL TERRY FIRST.

YOU KNOW WHAT'LL HAPPEN IF YOU TELL HIM.

HE'LL TALK YOU OUT OF IT.

HE ALWAYS DOES.

WHAT DO I ALWAYS DO?

UH... TERRY, WE NEED TO TALK.

WE DO, HUH?

UM...

OKAY, COME ON. I DON'T HAVE ALL NIGHT.

UM, I'VE BEEN TALKING TO EVAN CARLTON.

EVAN CARLTON?

OH...

I BET HE TELLS YOU

HE THINKS YOU SOUND LIKE ADELE.

NO, HE DOESN'T...

YOU KNOW HE'S BEEN TRYING TO GET AT ME FOR YEARS.

HE HATES ME.

THIS ISN'T ABOUT YOU, THIS IS ABOUT ME.

I'M FIRING YOU AS MY PRODUCER, AND I'M GOING WITH EVAN, OKAY?

UM...

OKAY.

OKAY.

I JUST THOUGHT

THAT YOU WANTED TO BE A REAL SINGER.

I DIDN'T THINK THIS WAS JUST A VANITY PROJECT.

JUST STOP. STOP.

YOU NEED ME, PHOEBE.

YOU NEED ME TO PUSH YOU!

YOUR MIND GAMES ARE NOT GOING TO WORK WITH ME, OKAY?

I'M LEAVING YOU,

AND EVAN IS PRODUCING MY ALBUM.

WHOSE ALBUM?

I OWN THAT ALBUM,

AND I WILL ERASE EVERY TRACK

BEFORE I ALLOW YOU TO HAND IT OVER

TO EVAN CARLTON OR ANYONE ELSE.

I SWEAR, IF YOU DO THAT...

YOU'LL BE SORRY.

OH, I'M TREMBLING.

[PHONE RINGING]

IT'S THE WIFE.

DO YOU MIND?

YEAH.

HELLO.

I'M COMING HOME SOON, HON'.

[♪♪♪]

[MEDITATION MUSIC PLAYING]

OH.

YOU CAN'T MEDITATE IN YOUR OWN ROOM?

IT'S CALLED MINDFULNESS.

YOU SHOULD TRY IT SOMETIME.

I HAVE MY OWN FORM OF MINDFULNESS.

IT INVOLVES LISTENING TO FRANK SINATRA

AND DRINKING A FEW...

I'M STANDING RIGHT HERE.

OH, UH, DRINKING A FEW... HOT COCOAS.

IS THAT ALL RIGHT?

DO YOU WANT ONE?

NO, I HATE HOT COCOA.

[CLAIRE]: OKAY.

IT'S TIME FOR OUR WEEKLY FAMILY MEETING.

OH, DARN.

YOU KNOW, I HAVE TO BE SOME PLACE.

WHERE?

ANYWHERE BUT HERE.

BREAKFAST IS READY.

WAFFLES.

OH, YOU SO KNOW MY WEAKNESS.

WELL, ONE OF THEM.

OKAY, LET'S GO.

LET'S JUST GET IT OVER WITH.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN BACK HERE?

A MONTH?

THREE WEEKS AND ONE DAY.

OKAY, SO...

YOU KNOW THE ROUTINE.

EACH WEEK, WE STATE...

WE STATE OUR PLANS, OUR GOALS...

AND OUR ASPIRATIONS.

OH, YOU POOR THING. YOU THINK THIS IS NORMAL.

[CLAIRE]: OKAY, SO,

MY PLAN IS TO GET AN ACQUITTAL

ON THE GORDON TRIAL.

MY GOAL IS, I WANT TO PREP THE TALBOT CASE,

AND MY ASPIRATION...

IS TO PLANT THE PARSLEY IN THE GARDEN

BY THE END OF THE WEEK.

FASCINATING.

WOULD YOU PASS ME THE SYRUP?

MY PLAN IS TO GET STRAIGHT A's IN PHYSICS.

MY GOAL IS TO MAKE THE BASEBALL TEAM,

GET TO PITCH

AT TRYOUTS TODAY...

AND MY ASPIRATION IS TO BE THE THIRD FEMALE PRESIDENT.

THIRD?

YEAH, WELL, YOU'LL BE FIRST,

AND THEN THERE'LL BE SOMEONE ELSE,

AND THEN THERE'LL BE ME.

THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW.

UH, BUT BASEBALL?

ISN'T IT ABOUT TIME THAT YOU SWITCHED TO SOFTBALL?

WHY?

BECAUSE I'M A GIRL?

UM... YES?

[CLAIRE]: LOU DOESN'T LIKE SOFTBALL.

[LOUISE]: I MEAN, UNDERHAND PITCHING?

WHY?

I MEAN, BOYS AND GIRLS PLAY T-BALL TOGETHER.

WHY CAN'T THEY PLAY BASEBALL?

THEY CAN.

THERE IS NO RULE

THAT SAYS GIRLS CANNOT PLAY BASEBALL.

SEE?

RIGHT, I STAND CORRECTED.

SO HOW MANY GIRLS ARE ON THE BASEBALL TEAM?

NONE.

WHY NOT?

BECAUSE OF THE GLASS CEILING.

RIGHT, MOM?

IT IS RIGHT THERE, READY TO BE BROKEN, BABY.

WHAT, WITH A CURVE BALL?

AND A TWO-SEAM FASTBALL.

MM-HMM.

YOUR TURN.

WELL, I WANT WHAT I ALWAYS WANT...

A CASE OF MY OWN.

YOU'RE A CONSULTANT.

YOU CONSULT.

HOW AM I EVER GOING TO BE A PARTNER AGAIN

IF I DON'T GET TO HANDLE MY OWN CASE?

ONE STEP AT A TIME.

YOU'VE ONLY JUST REJOINED THE FIRM.

YOU SEE, YOUR MOTHER HAS JUST CREATED

A GLASS CEILING JUST FOR ME.

THAT DOESN'T SOUND VERY FAIR, MOM.

MEETING ADJOURNED.

OH, AND MY ASPIRATION...

IS TO HAVE ANOTHER WAFFLE WHEN I'M FINISHED WITH THIS ONE.

YOU MAKE ME ONE?

OKAY?

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, ANOTHER ACQUITTAL!

[APPLAUDING]

BRAVA.

ALL RIGHT,

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

LET'S GET BACK TO WORK.

WE HAVE A LOT OF CASES TO WORRY ABOUT.

[RAYMOND]: WHAT MS. DARROW MEANS IS,

THANK YOU FOR YOUR GREAT SHOWING OF SUPPORT,

AND SHE COULDN'T HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT YOU.

THAT GOES WITHOUT SAYING.

TRY SAYING IT.

BACK TO WORK, EVERYONE.

LET'S GO.

HEY.

HEY!

COFFEE, COUNSELOR.

[JOANNA]: WELL, WELL, WELL,

IF IT ISN'T THE DEFEATED DISTRICT ATTORNEY,

COME TO PAY HOMAGE.

YOUR HOMAGE, COUNSELOR.

THANK YOU. WE HAVE A BET.

YEAH, WE HAVE A BET.

EVERY TIME WE FACE OFF IN COURT,

THE LOSER HAS TO BUY THE WINNER

A CUP OF COFFEE.

WHAT'S THE TALLY NOW?

LET'S SEE, THIS IS TWO THAT I BOUGHT YOU, AND...

ONE THAT I BOUGHT YOU.

YEAH, WHICH SEEMS UNEVEN. WHY IS THAT?

I DEFEND THE INNOCENT?

THE UNFAIR INNOCENCE ADVANTAGE.

[CHUCKLING]

MAY I COMMENT?

I CAN'T STOP YOU.

I CAN'T WAIT.

I CAN'T HELP BUT NOTICE

THAT WHENEVER THE TWO OF YOU ARE TOGETHER,

WHICH I'M ALL FOR, BY THE WAY,

YOU NEVER SEEM TO TALK ABOUT ANYTHING BUT WORK.

- THAT'S NOT TRUE. - THAT'S TRUE.

- WHAT? - YEAH!

REMEMBER OUR LAST DATE.

ALL WE DID WAS TALK ABOUT BODNAR V. MURAD.

THAT WAS A FASCINATING CONVERSATION.

YEAH, ABSOLUTELY, BUT... KIND OF WORK-ORIENTED.

WELL, IT WAS LAW TALK.

AND WE'RE LAWYERS,

BUT WE'RE ALSO WELL-ROUNDED INDIVIDUALS.

IN LIGHT OF THIS DEVELOPMENT,

I PROPOSE AN AGREEMENT

WHERE WE DON'T TALK LAW FOR A MONTH...

FOR TWO WEEKS, ALL RIGHT?

- NO SHOP TALK FOR... - ONE WEEK.

ONE WEEK. THE WEEKEND?

NO, NO, YOU'RE RIGHT. ONE WEEK.

STARTING RIGHT... NOW.

[JOANNA]: WOW, YOU GUYS ARE UNBELIEVABLE.

YOU KNOW, THERE ARE OTHER THINGS TO TALK ABOUT.

I KNOW!

OH, THERE'S PLENTY OF THINGS.

WHOLE WORLD OF THINGS TO TALK ABOUT.

BASEBALL?

BASEBALL.

YEAH, GO COWBOYS.

UH...

OH, WE COULD GO TO A CLUB DOWNTOWN TONIGHT.

A CLUB?

YEAH, MY SISTER--

MY KID SISTER, SHE'S A SINGER, RIGHT,

AND SHE'S PLAYING AT A CLUB DOWNTOWN TONIGHT,

SO WE GO, WE LISTEN TO MUSIC,

WE TALK, BUT NO SHOP TALK.

YEAH, IT COULD JUST BE LIFE TALK.

LIFE TALK!

YEAH, YOU IN?

I'M TOTALLY IN.

[JOANNA]: THAT SOUNDS GREAT...

BUT I'M NOT GOING.

YOU'RE NOT GOING.

YOU'LL BE MISSED...

YOU'RE NOT GOING.

WINNIE, YOUR INSTINCTS WITH JURY SELECTION

ARE SPOT ON.

HOW DO YOU READ PEOPLE SO WELL?

IT'S A BLESSING AND A CURSE.

IT MAKES DATING HER A CHALLENGE.

I ALWAYS KNOW WHAT HE'S THINKING.

ACTUALLY, IT SAVES TIME.

WATCH.

TONIGHT, DO YOU WANT TO...

GO TO A MOVIE?

SURE, BUT I PICK.

SEE?

WHATEVER WORKS FOR YOU, CHESTER.

WOULD THIS BE A GOOD TIME

FOR US TO HAVE THAT TALK?

UH, SURE, CHESTER.

WHAT TALK?

THAT TALK YOU'VE BEEN AVOIDING FOR ABOUT A MONTH.

AS YOU ARE NO DOUBT AWARE,

THIS FIRM IS IN A STATE OF CRISIS.

WE JUST WON A CASE.

EXACTLY.

WE'RE COASTING ON PAST GLORIES.

WE HAVE TO RECOGNIZE

THAT IT'S A WHOLE NEW WORLD OUT THERE.

THE STATUS QUO IS THE STATUS NO.

[RAYMOND]: LET ME GUESS...

YOU'VE BEEN DOING SOME OF THOSE BUSINESS SEMINARS.

I HAVE.

YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.

AND I LEARNED

THAT THE ONLY WAY TO SUCCEED... IS BY FAILING.

[JOANNA]: I THOUGHT THE ONLY WAY TO SUCCEED

WAS BY SUCCEEDING.

THAT'S OLD THOUGHT.

YOU HAVE TO COME INTO THE NEW MILLENNIUM.

DON'T START WITH THAT.

- PLEASE, CHESTER... - [SCOTT]: STOP HIM, PLEASE,

BEFORE HE MAKES US DO TEAM-BUILDING EXERCISES.

SEE, THAT'S EXACTLY THE TYPE OF THINKING

THAT'S KEEPING US IN THE 21ST CENTURY.

BUT THIS IS THE 21ST CENTURY.

AND IT WILL STAY THAT WAY UNLESS YOU START TO SAY YES.

OKAY, I'M GOING TO THINK ABOUT THAT, CHESTER.

YOU KNOW WHAT, CLAIRE,

YOU'RE REALLY-- YOU'RE KIND OF ENCOURAGING HIM,

AND I...

I DON'T HAVE THE HEART TO TELL HIM NO.

WELL...

THAT'S VERY POST-MILLENNIAL OF YOU.

NO, NO, NO, NO, YOU WERE AMAZING.

THANK YOU. HEY!

YOU MUST BE THE FAMOUS CLAIRE.

OH, I'M FAMOUS?

CUT IT OUT.

SORRY, AM I BLOWING YOUR COVER?

KIND OF BLOWING MY COVER, YUP.

HO, FLOWER CITY!

YOU HAVE A SECRET ADMIRER. WHO'S E?

UGH, DOESN'T MATTER.

IS IT THE FAMOUS E? SEE?

TWO CAN PLAY AT THAT GAME.

[PHOEBE]: UM, HAVE YOU MET MY AMAZING ENGINEER?

THIS IS JONAH LAROCHELLE.

HI!

USED TO BE MY ASSISTANT ON THE MIXING BOARDS,

AND NOW LOOK AT YOU.

YOU'LL ALWAYS BE THE MASTER.

WELL...

AND THIS IS LINDA YASBECK.

HI.

I'M THE PRODUCER'S WIFE, BUT DON'T HOLD THAT AGAINST ME.

[LAUGHING]

HEY, WHERE IS TERRY?

I THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO BE HERE TONIGHT.

HE'S BUSY WORKING ON PHOEBE'S ALBUM.

IT'S GOING TO BE GREAT!

[JONAH]: WELL, COME ON, LINDA,

LET PHOEBE GET SOME REST.

RIGHT.

YOUR HUSBAND'S EXPECTING US IN THE STUDIO IN THE MORNING,

AND IF WE'RE LATE...

OH, MY HUSBAND JUST WANTS EVERYONE

TO WORK AS HARD AS HE DOES.

HE IS NOT AS BAD AS PEOPLE SAY.

[JONAH]: NICE TO MEET YOU.

BYE, GUYS. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING.

- OF COURSE. - SEE YOU.

BYE.

MILES, I NEED YOUR HELP.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

WHAT'S WRONG?

EVERYTHING! EVERYTHING.

LOOK...

MY CAREER IS JUST STARTING TO TAKE OFF.

AFTER STRUGGLING AND SCRAPING BY,

I FINALLY MADE SOMETHING THAT WAS GOOD, THAT WAS ME...

THE ALBUM.

RIGHT, THE ALBUM. SHE SAID IT WAS GREAT.

YEAH, LINDA SAID IT WAS GOOD-- TERRY'S WIFE, LINDA.

TERRY, THOUGH...

TERRY IS RUINING EVERYTHING!

HOW?

HE'S TRYING TO STEAL MY ALBUM.

HE'S TRYING TO DESTROY IT.

HOW?

I WAS CONTACTED BY THIS OTHER PRODUCER,

EVAN CARLTON.

HE'S A REALLY GOOD PRODUCER, AND A REALLY KIND GUY.

HE'S THE KIND OF PRODUCER I NEED TO TAKE MY ALBUM FURTHER,

AND SO I TOLD HIM THAT.

TOLD TERRY THAT?

TERRY, YEAH,

BUT HE SAID THAT WE HAVE A CONTRACT,

AND THAT HE OWNS THE ALBUM,

AND IF I TRY TO LEAVE HIM, HE'LL DESTROY IT.

CAN I SEE THIS CONTRACT?

I DON'T HAVE A COPY.

TERRY HAS IT, IN HIS OFFICE.

CAN YOU HELP HER? I MEAN...

SHE IS THE BEST LAWYER IN THE CITY.

WELL, YEAH, I WOULD LOVE TO HELP,

BUT I NEED TO SEE THAT CONTRACT.

OKAY, I MEAN, I CAN GET IT FOR YOU.

OKAY, BRING IT TO MY OFFICE TOMORROW AFTERNOON.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

- WE'LL SEE YOU THROUGH THIS. - THANK YOU.

NOT GOING TO LET YOU DOWN AGAIN.

YOU NEVER HAVE.

YOU'RE SWEET.

NICE TO MEET YOU.

- THANK YOU SO MUCH. - OF COURSE.

NICE TO MEET YOU. THANK YOU.

YOU WERE GREAT TONIGHT.

OH, THERE YOU ARE!

SO... SIX HOURS.

WHAT?

COULDN'T EVEN GO SIX HOURS WITHOUT TALKING SHOP.

WE JUST CAN'T STOP, CAN WE?

WE CAN'T.

[PHONE RINGING]

HELLO?

[TERRY]: I'M COMING HOME SOON, HON'.

OKAY, I...

HEY, PHOEBE? PHOEBE, WHAT ARE YOU--

[GUN FIRING]

[CRASHING]

TERRY!

TERRY?

[LINE RINGING]

[VOICE MAIL]: YOU HAVE REACHED THE VOICE MAILBOX OF...

[LINE RINGING]

[OPERATOR]: THIS IS 911.

WHAT'S YOUR EMERGENCY?

IT'S MY HUSBAND!

SOMETHING HAS HAPPENED TO HIM.

[POLICE RADIO CHATTER]

[KNOCKING]

YEAH?

I DON'T WANT YOU TO THINK

THAT I WAS IGNORING YOU.

I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT WHAT YOU SAID.

WELL, YOU'VE IGNORED WHAT I'VE SAID FOR YEARS.

YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO NARROW THAT DOWN.

ABOUT HAVING A CASE OF YOUR OWN.

OH, SO, YOU FINALLY CAME AROUND.

WELL, I HAPPEN TO HAVE A NUMBER OF CASES

THAT SOUND VERY INTERESTING.

MOM, SLOW DOWN.

I'D LIKE TO SEE

IF YOU UNDERSTAND THE PHILOSOPHY OF DARROW & DARROW.

EXCUSE ME...

WHAT IS MY NAME?

I HELPED CO-FOUND THIS FIRM.

YES, BUT YOU'VE BEEN AWAY IN NEW YORK,

AT THAT BIG, PROMINENT FIRM.

YES, YES, WHERE WE ACTUALLY MADE MONEY.

OOH, ISN'T THAT AWFUL?

YOU SHOULD SEE HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT THE WAY WE DO THINGS.

NOW, THERE'S A WOMAN IN THE CONFERENCE ROOM.

IT'S A PRO BONO CASE.

PRO BONO?

YES.

FOR NOTHING?

FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD.

SHE WANTS TO SUE A CLIENT OF OURS,

AND OUR CLIENT CAN'T PAY,

SO... WE COULD DO IT FOR FREE.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I SEE WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

YOU DON'T THINK I'LL DO IT.

YOU WANT TO BE PROVEN RIGHT ABOUT ME.

I DON'T...

WELL, I'LL DO IT.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT?

I'M PLEASED.

YEAH, YOU SAY YOU'RE PLEASED,

BUT I KNOW THAT INSIDE, YOU ARE SHOCKED.

YOU CAN BELIEVE THAT, IF YOU WANT TO.

I AM GOING TO TAKE THIS PRO BONO CASE,

AND I'M GOING TO SLAY IT...

YEAH, AND THEN HOW ARE YOU GOING TO FEEL?

HAPPY?

- YOU'RE DARN RIGHT. - OKAY.

LEAD ON.

GREAT.

I THINK THEY MANUFACTURE IT RIGHT IN THEIR HOUSE

AND SELL ON THE FRONT LAWN, IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY!

IT'S OUTRAGEOUS!

MRS. BELLAMY...

I HATE TO THINK

WHAT KIND OF HEALTH CODES THEY'RE VIOLATING,

NOT TO MENTION THE ZONING CODES.

MRS...

AND HE HAS HIS GRANDDAUGHTER SELLING THE STUFF.

WHAT KIND OF MONSTER WOULD DO THAT?

MRS. BELLAMY, YOU STILL HAVEN'T TOLD ME

WHAT MY CLIENTS ARE ALLEGEDLY SELLING.

ALLEGEDLY?

I'VE GOT PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE.

IT'S A LEMONADE STAND.

YOU SEE?

YOU CAN'T BELIEVE IT EITHER, CAN YOU?

NO, NO, I CAN'T.

OKAY, HERE YOU GO.

WELL, SHE'S A REAL WING-NUT,

BUT THE THING IS, SHE'S RIGHT.

HER NEIGHBORHOOD ISN'T ZONED FOR RETAIL,

SO TECHNICALLY, SHE HAS A CASE.

SO IT'LL TAKE A REALLY GOOD LAWYER

TO FIGHT IT, HUH?

YOU REALLY THINK

THAT FLATTERY WILL MOTIVATE ME?

WON'T IT?

WELL, YES, OF COURSE, IT WILL.

I'M SURPRISED IT TOOK YOU THAT LONG

TO FIGURE IT OUT.

[MILES]: HEY.

- HEY THERE. HOW ARE YOU? - HI!

LOOK WHAT I GOT... THE CONTRACT!

OH, GOOD, YOU GOT THE CONTRACT.

THE CONTRACT.

I PICKED IT UP FROM TERRY'S OFFICE LAST NIGHT.

AWESOME. LET'S TAKE A LOOK.

ALL RIGHT.

ARE YOU PHOEBE STRASBERG?

UH... YES?

YOUR ROOMMATE TOLD US WE MIGHT FIND YOU HERE.

WAIT. HOLD ON. WHAT'S GOING ON?

YOU'RE UNDER ARREST, MISS STRASBERG.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

WHAT IS SHE BEING CHARGED WITH?

THE MURDER OF TERRY YASBECK.

[MILES]: MURDER? WHAT?

- TERRY? - THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE.

[OFFICER]: YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT.

ANYTHING YOU SAY CAN AND WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU

IN A COURT OF LAW.

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO AN ATTORNEY.

IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD AN ATTORNEY,

ONE WILL BE PROVIDED FOR YOU.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THESE RIGHTS?

[MILES]: DON'T WORRY, PHOEBE, WE'VE GOT THIS.

LOOK, I DON'T THINK I'M THE ONE YOU NEED.

YOU ARE.

I HAVE NEVER DEFENDED A MURDER TRIAL BEFORE.

ISN'T THERE SOMEONE MORE QUALIFIED THAN ME?

YOU'RE THE BEST TRIAL LAWYER I HAVE EVER SEEN.

WELL, THANK YOU, BUT STILL...

SO HERE'S WHAT YOU'RE DEALING WITH.

SHE WAS SEEN ENTERING THE YASBECKS' OFFICE

AT THE TIME OF THE MURDER.

THEY GOT A SEARCH WARRANT.

THEY SEARCHED HER CAR.

THEY FOUND THE MURDER WEAPON.

A BERETTA M9.

THAT'S WHY THEY'RE SO SURE IT'S HER?

THAT'S WHY THEY'RE SO SURE.

THEY'RE TESTING HER HANDS FOR GUNSHOT RESIDUE RIGHT NOW.

LOOK, CLAIRE...

I KNOW MY SISTER.

I KNOW SHE'S INNOCENT.

YOU'RE GOOD AT DEFENDING THE INNOCENT, RIGHT?

ALL RIGHT, I'LL SEE HER THIS AFTERNOON.

THANK YOU.

AFTER I CHECK ON LOU.

THANK YOU.

SO YOU THINK YOU'RE UP FOR THIS CASE?

NOT REALLY.

I DO.

HOPE YOU'RE RIGHT.

[CRACKING]

[JOANNA]: SHE IS GOOD.

I MEAN, SHE'S REALLY GOOD.

I KNOW! HER DAD TAUGHT HER TO HIT LIKE THAT.

OH, NOW I SEE.

SO BASEBALL IS LOU'S WAY

OF STAYING CONNECTED

TO THE MEMORY OF HER FATHER.

THAT'S NICE.

YEAH.

WHEN SHE WAS FOUR,

SHE COULD NAME EVERY BASEBALL TEAM

AND EVERY CITY IN THE MAJOR LEAGUE.

SHE COLLECTED THE CARDS.

SHE KNEW ALL THE STATS.

THE STATS? ARE YOU KIDDING?

YEAH. YEAH, THAT'S HOW SHE GOT INTO MATH,

WHICH LEAD TO ENGINEERING,

WHICH LEAD TO ALL THE A.P. CLASSES.

WE OWE IT ALL TO BASEBALL.

WELL...

I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A BUNCH OF GUYS

STANDING AROUND,

WAITING FOR FLY BALLS.

THERE'S A LOT MORE TO IT THAN THAT.

YEAH, UH, COULD'VE FOOLED ME.

LOU.

SHE YOURS?

UM...

YES.

NOT BAD.

NOT BAD?

SHE'S THE BEST PLAYER YOU'VE GOT.

OH, YEAH?

CHARMING FELLOW.

BYE.

[SNICKERING]

ALL RIGHT.

I'VE GOT TO GO.

WISH ME LUCK.

ALL RIGHT. GO GET 'EM, TIGER.

YES, I FOUGHT WITH TERRY DURING OUR LAST SESSION,

AND YEAH, I HAD A DIFFERENT PRODUCER LINED UP.

DID YOU THREATEN TERRY YASBECK?

I DON'T KNOW. I MIGHT HAVE.

I MEAN.... I WAS MAD.

TERRY HAS A WAY OF GETTING UNDER YOUR SKIN...

OR... HAD.

WELL, YOU WERE OVERHEARD

THREATENING TERRY

IF HE DESTROYED YOUR ALBUM.

YEAH, I MEAN, THAT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING I'D SAY.

I MEAN, SUPPOSE SOMEBODY THREATENED

WHATEVER YOU CARE ABOUT MOST?

OKAY... THE CLERK

AT THE CONVENIENCE STORE ACROSS THE STREET

SAID HE SAW YOU TRYING THE DOOR TO YASBECKS' STUDIO

AROUND 1:00 IN THE MORNING.

SAID HE RECOGNIZED YOU.

YEAH, I MEAN, I...

WE ALWAYS BUY ENERGY DRINKS FROM HIM.

I WAVED AT HIM,

AND THEN THE DOOR WAS LOCKED, SO I WENT AROUND BACK.

THE SECURITY CAMERA SAW YOU DRIVE UP

AND GO IN THE BACK DOOR.

I KNOW. I TOLD YOU.

I WENT TO GO GET THE CONTRACT.

SO THAT DOOR WAS UNLOCKED?

YEAH,

SO I THOUGHT SOMEBODY WOULD BE WORKING THERE,

BUT THE WHOLE PLACE WAS JUST QUIET.

TERRY WASN'T THERE.

I MEAN, AT LEAST, I DIDN'T SEE HIM.

SO I WENT INTO HIS OFFICE,

AND I GOT THE CONTRACT FROM HIS FILES.

I EVEN LOOKED THROUGH HIS WHOLE COMPUTER.

WHAT FOR?

FOR MY ALBUM, FOR THE TRACKS.

AH, OF COURSE.

I COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING.

DID YOU HEAR A GUNSHOT?

NO.

[MILES]: PHOEBE...

YOU WERE THERE AT THE EXACT TIME OF THE MURDER.

AND TERRY'S WIFE SAID

SHE HEARD HIM CALL YOUR NAME

ON THE PHONE.

I MEAN, EVEN IF I WAS THERE,

I WOULDN'T HAVE HEARD THE SHOT ANYWAYS.

THE WHOLE STUDIO'S SOUNDPROOFED.

I SWEAR, I JUST WENT HOME.

WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?

YOU'RE INNOCENT.

YOU'RE INNOCENT. THEY'LL SEE THAT.

IT'S FUNNY, YOU KNOW.

LAST NIGHT,

THAT ALBUM WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE WORLD

TO ME...

AND NOW, I MEAN...

I CAN ALWAYS JUST RE-MAKE IT...

UNLESS I'M IN PRISON FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.

I MEAN, THAT'S WHAT I'M FACING, RIGHT?

THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

OKAY?

AH.

ARE YOU READY TO PLEAD GUILTY?

NO, I DIDN'T KILL TERRY.

SHE DIDN'T KILL TERRY.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY ASHLAND, HOW ARE YOU?

NOT TOO HAPPY TO SEE YOU ON THIS SIDE OF THE FENCE, MILES.

[CLAIRE]: WE'RE ALL ON THE SAME SIDE.

WE ALL WANT TO FIND THE TRUTH.

MAN, YOU WEREN'T KIDDING ABOUT HER, WERE YOU?

WHAT DID YOU SAY ABOUT ME?

I SAID NOTHING BUT GOOD THINGS.

PLUS, SHE'S RIGHT.

I DON'T KNOW.

WE HAVE THE RESULTS OF THE GUNSHOT RESIDUE TEST

ON THE SUSPECT'S HANDS.

IT CAME BACK POSITIVE.

[CLAPPING]

[COACH]: THAT'S IT, FELLAS!

COME ON, WAKE UP! WAKE UP OUT THERE!

WHY ISN'T HE PLAYING HER?

LOOK AT HER. SHE'S SO DISAPPOINTED.

WAIT, WAIT A SECOND.

I THINK HE'S GOING TO GO TALK TO HER.

- OKAY. OH, I'M SO NERVOUS. - HE'S TALKING TO HER.

- [CLAIRE]: I'M SO NERVOUS. - [JOANNA]: IT'S OKAY.

I MEAN, SHE'S GOOD, RIGHT?

YEAH, BUT THIS IS A LOT OF PRESSURE.

OH, YOU MEAN LIKE YOU WITH THAT CASE?

YOU'RE NOT HELPING.

SORRY.

ALL RIGHT. YOU'RE GOOD, YOU'RE GOOD.

OH, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

COACH, PUT HER IN!

[COACH]: COME ON, FELLAS! HUSTLE UP, KEEP ALERT.

JERK.

[CLAPPING]

HAVE THEY BEEN ABLE

TO TRACK THE SERIAL NUMBER ON THE GUN?

THEY HAVE.

IT BELONGS TO A CATHERINE HUDDLESTON.

SHE'S AN OLD-TIMER,

LIVES OUT THERE ON QUANDER ROAD.

SAYS SHE CAN'T REMEMBER THE LAST TIME SHE SAW IT.

BUT SHE HAS NO CONNECTION TO YOUR SISTER?

NOT THAT I KNOW OF.

WELL, THAT'S SOMETHING.

[PHONE RINGING]

[SCOTT]: HELLO?

[CLAIRE, ON PHONE]: SCOTT?

YES, CHIEF.

HEY, I NEED YOU TO TRACK A...

CATHERINE HUDDLESTON.

A CATHERINE HUDDLESTON.

- FIND OUT EVERYTHING YOU CAN-- - TERRY YASBECK.

AND SEE ABOUT HER CONNECTION

TO TERRY YASBECK

OR ANYONE ELSE INVOLVED IN THE CASE.

YOU GOT IT.

HERE'S SOMETHING ELSE.

YEAH?

SO PHOEBE'S ALBUM, ALL RIGHT,

THE TRACKS, PHOEBE'S ALBUM...

NOWHERE TO BE FOUND AT TERRY YASBECK'S STUDIO,

AND APPARENTLY, THIS GUY KEPT EVERYTHING,

WAS A REAL CONTROL FREAK, RIGHT?

HE HAD BACK-UPS ON BACK-UPS,

AND EVERYTHING THEY DID

ON THE COMPUTERS OVER THERE,

HE DIDN'T LET GO OF ANYTHING.

SO WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ALBUM?

I DON'T KNOW, I...

EITHER TERRY DESTROYED IT, WHICH MAKES NO SENSE, OR...

SOMEBODY STOLE IT.

OR SOMEONE STOLE IT.

VERY POSSIBLY THE SAME PERSON

THAT KILLED TERRY.

BUT WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT?

IT DOESN'T...

IT'S NOT WORTH ANYTHING TO ANYBODY BUT TERRY.

AND PHOEBE.

SHE SAYS SHE DIDN'T TAKE IT.

SHE ALSO SAID

SHE DIDN'T KILL TERRY YASBECK.

I KNOW... I KNOW SHE DIDN'T, BUT...

IF I'M A D.A., WHICH I AM,

AND I'M THINKING LIKE A D.A., WHICH I AM,

SHE LOOKS GUILTY.

WELL, I'M THINKING LIKE A DEFENSE ATTORNEY,

AND I KNOW SHE'S NOT.

THANKS FOR SAYING THAT, AND ALSO, THANK YOU FOR...

YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY ANYTHING.

ALL RIGHT.

AND DON'T YOU FRET.

I'M GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THIS, OKAY?

OKAY.

OKAY.

THANK YOU, MRS. DARROW.

MM-HMM.

YOU KNOW WHAT MAKES THIS LEMONADE CASE SO HARD?

HAVING TO WATCH A LITTLE GIRL SOB HER EYES OUT?

WELL, YEAH, THAT,

AND HAVING TO ACTUALLY TASTE THE LEMONADE.

THEY SWEETEN IT WITH STEVIA.

IT'S A TERRIBLE AFTER-TASTE.

YOU KNOW WHAT? I LIKE STEVIA.

HUH.

YOU PROBABLY LIKE CILANTRO, TOO.

YES, I DO.

WELL, TAKES ALL KINDS.

HEY, WHERE'S CLAIRE?

SHE'S WITH MILES, MEETING WITH PHOEBE'S PRODUCER.

I... I THOUGHT PHOEBE'S PRODUCER WAS DEAD.

I MEAN, ISN'T THAT THE WHOLE PROBLEM?

THERE'S A NEW PRODUCER.

OH.

SHE HAS A NEW PRODUCER?

WELL, LUCKY GIRL.

EXCEPT FOR BEING CHARGED WITH MURDER?

WELL, YEAH, EXCEPT FOR THAT.

CHESTER LIME.

I WAS WONDERING IF TODAY WOULD BE A GOOD DAY

TO DISCUSS OUR CREATIVE SYNERGY EXPLORATION?

[JOANNA AND RAYMOND]: NO.

OH.

OKAY.

TERRY YASBECK WAS AN ABUSIVE JERK.

ASK ANYBODY.

EMOTIONALLY, PHYSICALLY...

I MEAN, IF PHOEBE KILLED HIM,

IT WAS IN SELF-DEFENSE.

SHE DIDN'T KILL HIM.

ARE YOU SAYING

THAT THAT'S WHAT YOU THINK HAPPENED?

NO, I'M NOT SAYING THAT.

I'M JUST SAYING TERRY WAS AN ANGRY, DANGEROUS PERSON.

I MEAN, IF I SAW HIM COMING AT PHOEBE,

AND I HAD A GUN,

I'D PROBABLY SHOOT HIM MYSELF.

DID YOU?

NO, OF COURSE NOT.

YOU SEEM AWFULLY PROTECTIVE OF PHOEBE.

LOOK, I WOULDN'T SAY THAT.

SHE'S A VERY TALENTED SINGER,

AND I WANT TO PRODUCE HER ALBUM.

DID YOU SEND HER FLOWERS?

YES, I DID,

BUT JUST TO THANK HER FOR SIGNING WITH ME.

BUT YOU DO HAVE A PARTICULAR REASON

FOR WANTING TO KILL TERRY YASBECK, DON'T YOU?

YEAH, OKAY. YOU'RE REFERRING TO LINDA.

YEAH, TERRY WAS MARRIED TO MY EX-WIFE.

RIGHT, SO WE COULD SAY YOU HAVE MANY REASONS

TO WANT TO KILL TERRY YASBECK, DON'T YOU?

[CLAIRE]: WELL, IT SEEMS LIKE

EVAN HAS MORE THAN A PROFESSIONAL INTEREST

IN YOUR SISTER.

WHY DID YOU STOP ME?

I HAD HIM ON THE ROPES.

WE'RE NOT IN COURT.

WE'RE NOT EVEN TAKING DEPOSITIONS.

WE'RE JUST GATHERING FACTS.

AS A D.A., YOU KNOW HOW TO DO THAT.

YOU'RE RIGHT, YOU'RE RIGHT.

YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU'RE RIGHT, YOU'RE RIGHT.

YOU'VE GOT TO HAVE BLIND FAITH.

IS THAT WHAT YOU DO, CLAIRE?

YOU JUST HAVE BLIND FAITH?

ACTUALLY, JUST FAITH,

BUT YOU CAN CALL IT BLIND JUSTICE.

BESIDES, NOW WE KNOW

EVAN CARLTON'S IN LOVE WITH YOUR SISTER.

ABOUT THAT... IF HE IS,

THEN WHY...

DIDN'T PHOEBE TELL US THAT?

MAYBE SHE DOESN'T KNOW...

OR MAYBE SHE'S PROTECTING HIM.

HEY, SCOTT,

HOW ARE YOU COMING ALONG WITH CATHERINE HUDDLESTON?

STILL LOOKING INTO IT.

OKAY, WELL,

I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU ANOTHER JOB

BECAUSE YOU'RE THE BEST INVESTIGATOR I HAVE.

I WON'T DENY THAT, BUT THANKS FOR THE VALIDATION.

I WANT YOU TO FIND OUT WHAT CAN CAUSE A FALSE POSITIVE

ON A GUNSHOT-RESIDUE TEST.

RIGHT... I'M ON IT.

THAT'S GOOD.

THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.

I HAVE THEM OCCASIONALLY.

YEAH, DO THAT.

I DON'T WORK FOR YOU.

NOT YET.

[CLAIRE]: PLEASE, GUYS, OKAY?

SO NOW WE NEED TO GO TALK

TO PHOEBE'S BACK-UP SINGER AND HER ENGINEER

TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THAT.

I'LL BRING THE CAR ROUND.

OKAY.

HEY, CHESTER?

YOU KNOW YOUR WAY AROUND A COMPUTER, RIGHT?

WE HAVE A CERTAIN RAPPORT.

I WANT YOU TO SEARCH TERRY YASBECK'S COMPUTER SYSTEM

FOR THE ENTIRE WEEK LEADING UP TO THE MURDER.

THAT'LL TAKE DAYS,

AND THE POLICE HAVE ALREADY BEEN THROUGH IT.

ARE YOU COMPLAINING?

NO, JUST DEFINING IT.

ACTUALLY, IT SOUNDS KIND OF FUN.

GREAT, AND, CHESTER,

I WANT YOU TO BE MY SECOND ON THIS.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY. I JUST...

AH... MM.

SCOTT!

WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU

ABOUT LEAVING YOUR LAW BOOKS

ALL OVER MY DESK?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, YOUR DESK?

WE'RE SUPPOSED TO SHARE THIS DESK.

THIS HALF IS MINE.

WELL, THEN WHY DO YOU LEAVE YOUR DANISH ON MY HALF?

STOP BEING PETTY!

YOU'RE BEING PETTY!

THEY'RE LIKE THIS 24-7.

MAYBE WE DO NEED TEAM-BUILDING EXERCISES.

JOURNEY OF A THOUSAND MILES STARTS WITH A SINGLE DANISH.

NO, I DON'T HAVE ANY OF PHOEBE'S TRACKS.

TERRY WAS VERY PROTECTIVE OF THEM.

HE KEPT THEM ALL ON HIS COMPUTER.

THEY AREN'T ON ANY OF TERRY'S COMPUTERS.

OR ON THE HARD DRIVE AT THE RECORDING STUDIO.

OH, I DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT...

YOU KNOW, UNLESS TERRY WAS GOING TO DELETE THE WHOLE ALBUM.

[NORAH]: WELL, I WOULDN'T PUT IT PAST HIM.

HE ERASED ALL THE MUSIC I RECORDED WITH HIM.

HE WAS JEALOUS OF MY TALENT.

THIS IS MY WIFE, NORAH.

SHE'S ALSO THE BACK-UP SINGER ON PHOEBE'S ALBUM.

THAT'S ME,

JUST A FEW FEET FROM STARDOM,

BUT IT'S REALLY TERRIBLE

WHAT THEY'RE DOING TO PHOEBE.

YEAH.

[JONAH]: I HATED TO HAVE TO TELL THE COPS WHAT I'D HEARD,

BUT I COULDN'T LIE, COULD I?

YOU COULD'VE LIED.

UH, NO, HE COULDN'T.

WELL...

BUT SHE'S DIDN'T MEAN IT WHEN SHE THREATENED HIM.

THAT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE SAY.

RIGHT.

[NORAH]: I MEAN, LOOK,

IF IT HADN'T BEEN FOR PHOEBE BEGGING HIM,

I WOULDN'T EVEN BE HER BACK-UP SINGER.

I'D BE A WAITRESS SOMEWHERE.

YEAH.

PHOEBE EVEN SAID SHE'D TAKE ME WITH HER

WHEN SHE WENT TO EVAN CARLTON.

EVAN CARLTON...

DID YOU SUSPECT SOMETHING MORE...

PERSONAL...

IN PHOEBE'S RELATIONSHIP WITH EVAN?

I NEVER THOUGHT SO.

[NORAH]: SHE COULD DO WORSE,

BUT NO, I NEVER HEARD ANYTHING.

WELL...

YEAH.

- THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. - YEAH.

[NORAH]: YOU UNDERSTAND, PHOEBE'S A FRIEND.

I WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR HER.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. THAT'S NICE TO HEAR.

WHAT I MEAN IS,

IF YOU WANTED ME TO TESTIFY

THAT PHOEBE WAS WITH ME THAT NIGHT,

I'D BE HAPPY TO.

WERE YOU WITH HER THAT NIGHT?

WELL, NO.

OKAY, WELL, WE COULDN'T ASK YOU TO LIE TO PROTECT PHOEBE.

BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE PERJURY.

RIGHT.

I SEE.

WELL, THERE'S GOT TO BE SOMETHING WE CAN DO

TO PROTECT HER.

YEAH, WHAT IS YOUR PLAN?

OUR PLAN IS TO FIND THE TRUTH.

RIGHT.

OKAY...

BUT YOU KNOW THAT SHE KILLED HIM, RIGHT?

I MEAN, YOU KNOW THAT?

[MILES]: WELL, THAT HAS YET TO BE PROVEN.

WELL, THANKS.

IF WE HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS,

WE'LL BE IN TOUCH.

DO YOU WANT SOME COFFEE?

MM...

I THINK IF I HAVE ANY MORE COFFEE,

I'LL BE UP FOR A WEEK.

NOT THAT I CAN SLEEP ANYWAY.

WELL, YOU HAVE TO DRINK SOMETHING.

YOU HAVE TO STAY HYDRATED.

OKAY, FIRST OFF,

COFFEE IS A DIURETIC.

SECOND, REALLY, CLAIRE? THAT'S MY PROBLEM?

MY PROBLEM--

MY SISTER'S ON TRIAL FOR MURDER, AND I'VE GOT TO STAY HYDRATED?

MY DAD USED TO SAY

THAT YOU HAVE TO HANDLE WHAT YOU CAN, WHEN YOU CAN,

AND RIGHT NOW, YOU CAN HANDLE STAYING HYDRATED.

MY DAD ALWAYS USED TO SAY,

"PICK THAT UP!"

I DON'T WANT ANYTHING.

THAT'S GOOD, 'CAUSE WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING

BUT GRAPE SODA.

GIVE ME A GRAPE SODA, PLEASE.

WHAT?

OH, YEAH, I'LL HAVE A GRAPE SODA.

I LOVE GRAPE SODA.

WE HAVE GRAPE SODA?

NO, I USED TO DRINK TONS OF GRAPE SODA AS A YOUTH.

THEY USED TO CALL ME "THE GRAPE SODA KID".

PLEASE.

IT'S A WONDER YOU SURVIVED.

YOU DON'T LIKE GRAPE SODA?

I...

NEVER TRIED IT.

NEVER... YOU'VE NEVER TRIED...

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

YOU'RE GOING TO TRY A GRAPE SODA RIGHT NOW.

NO.

RIGHT NOW, TRY A GRAPE SODA.

NO.

TRY IT FOR ME.

OKAY...

FINE.

YOU DON'T THINK SHE'S GUILTY, RIGHT?

NOT FOR A MINUTE.

OKAY.

YOU'RE NOT JUST SAYING THAT 'CAUSE OF... ME?

NO.

NO, I'D FEEL BAD FOR YOU,

BUT I WOULD DEFINITELY TELL YOU

IF I THOUGHT SHE WAS GUILTY.

SHE'S NOT.

THANKS.

MM...

THAT TASTES NOTHING LIKE GRAPE.

I KNOW.

IT'S LIKE NO OTHER FLAVOR KNOWN TO MAN.

IT'S EXCELLENT.

WHY DO THEY CALL IT GRAPE?

YOU'VE GOT TO CALL IT SOMETHING.

THAT'S THE LEGALESE.

MM.

I KIND OF LIKE IT.

[CHUCKLING]

I KNOW, IT'S KIND OF AMAZING.

IT GROWS ON YOU.

SO...

NOW WOULD BE A TERRIBLE TIME FOR A KISS...

RIGHT?

TOTALLY.

YEAH.

- SHALL WE WAIT 'TIL... - YEAH.

- TILL OUR HEADS ARE CLEAR. - TILL OUR HEADS ARE CLEAR.

RIGHT. YES. OKAY.

ALL RIGHT.

WELL...

GOOD NIGHT, COUNSELOR.

GOOD NIGHT.

I'VE GOT TO GET MORE OF THIS STUFF.

"IT IS A FAR, FAR BETTER THING THAT I DO,

THAN I HAVE EVER DONE;

IT IS A FAR, FAR BETTER REST THAT I GO TO,

THAN I HAVE EVER KNOWN."

THE END.

SO HE WENT TO THE GUILLOTINE?

YEP.

FOR A GOOD CAUSE.

NICE BEDTIME STORY, MOM.

IT'S A CLASSIC.

I LIKED IT.

TOMORROW, WE START ON OLIVER TWIST.

MOM?

YEAH?

I DON'T KNOW IF I WANT TO PLAY BASEBALL ANYMORE.

WHAT?

WHY NOT?

ARE THE BOYS BEING MEAN TO YOU?

NO, NO, THEY'RE NICE.

WHAT, IS THE COACH GIVING YOU TROUBLE?

I DON'T THINK SO.

THEN WHAT IS IT?

THEY DON'T MAKE ME FEEL LIKE I'M PART OF THE TEAM.

YOU KNOW, THEY...

THEY TREAT ME LIKE I'M SOMETHING SPECIAL.

WELL, YOU ARE SOMETHING SPECIAL.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

THEY TREAT ME LIKE I'M A GIRL.

OH, HONEY...

YOU ARE A GIRL.

I KNOW, BUT I JUST...

I THINK IT'D BE BETTER IF I QUIT...

YOU KNOW, FOCUS ON DEBATE TEAM.

DO YOU LIKE BASEBALL?

I LOVE IT.

THEN YOU SHOULD DO WHAT YOU LOVE.

I GUESS SO.

I'LL GIVE IT ANOTHER SHOT.

JUST SEE HOW IT GOES.

YOU WERE LISTENING?

WELL, IT SAVES TIME.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I THINK SHE JUST WANTS TO BE A PART OF THE TEAM.

WELL, I KNOW HOW SHE FEELS.

OH, SO THIS IS ABOUT YOU, NOW?

IT'S ABOUT ME, HER, YOU.

IT'S ABOUT ALL OF US.

I'M GOING TO GIVE THAT COACH

A PIECE OF MY MIND.

ALL RIGHT, CAN I-- CAN I JUST SAY SOMETHING?

CAN I STOP YOU?

REMEMBER WHEN YOU WERE LITTLE, AND I USED TO TELL YOU

THAT YOU CAN CATCH MORE FLIES WITH HONEY THAN WITH VINEGAR?

YEAH, YOU KNOW, I NEVER UNDERSTOOD THAT.

WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO ATTRACT FLIES?

ALL RIGHT, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

JUST... LET ME TALK TO HIM.

YOU KNOW THAT I WAS VOTED

"MOST LIKELY TO GET WHAT SHE WANTS"

IN MY SENIOR CLASS.

YEAH, HOW DID YOU WIN THAT, ANYWAY?

I WANTED IT.

EASY.

YEAH, I TOOK A LOT OF PICTURES

OF THAT LAST SESSION.

YOU KNOW, FOR PUBLICITY AND FOR THE ALBUM COVER.

HERE THEY ARE.

DID ANYTHING STRIKE YOU AS ODD

ABOUT THAT LAST SESSION?

YOU MEAN ASIDE FROM TERRY BEING A ROYAL SLEAZEBAG?

HE HAD HER SO UPSET

THAT SHE FIDGETED WITH HER MIC STAND

ALL THROUGH THE SESSION.

YOU CAN EVEN SEE THAT IN THIS PICTURE.

I SWEAR, IT'S AS IF HE LIKED TO SEE HER CRY.

WHAT DID HE SAY TO MAKE HER CRY?

SPECIFICALLY?

HE SAID SHE HAD NO TALENT

AND THAT SHE WAS NOTHING WITHOUT HIM.

OKAY, BUT...

CAN YOU THINK OF ANYONE WHO WOULD WANT TO KILL HIM?

ONLY EVERYBODY WHO EVER MET HIM.

RIGHT.

THAT NARROWS IT DOWN.

THANKS.

SO, WAS THERE ANYTHING UNUSUAL

ABOUT THE LAST RECORDING SESSION?

I'VE TOLD YOU, NO.

TERRY WAS ABUSIVE, BUT THAT WAS NORMAL.

DID YOU ALWAYS HAVE THAT MUCH TROUBLE

WITH YOUR MIC STAND?

I DON'T KNOW.

TERRY HAD ME SO RATTLED.

I WAS-- I WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH EVERYTHING.

THINK.

PLEASE.

UM...

I GUESS IT WAS A LITTLE...

I DON'T KNOW, SLIPPERY.

SO WHY DIDN'T YOU SWITCH IT OUT FOR ANOTHER ONE?

I KNOW IT'S SILLY, BUT...

THAT PARTICULAR STAND WAS KIND OF A GOOD LUCK CHARM.

I ALWAYS USED IT,

AND EVERYONE WOULD KID ME ABOUT IT,

BUT WHEN I STOOD IN FRONT OF THAT STAND...

I COULD REALLY SING.

HMM.

IT LOOKS LIKE AN ORDINARY MIC STAND.

I KNOW, BUT LOOK AT THE COLOR PICTURE.

YOU SEE THE THING ON TOP

THAT YOU USE TO TIGHTEN IT?

IT'S RED.

THE CLIP?

YEAH, YOU KNEW THAT?

YEAH, I KNEW THAT. WHAT, YOU DIDN'T?

NAH, I HAD TO LOOK IT UP.

I'M WAY AHEAD OF YOU.

WHY ARE WE LOOKING FOR THIS?

I DON'T KNOW.

IT IS JUST A HUNCH.

YEAH, WELL... ALL RIGHT.

HUNCH IS GOOD. HUNCH IS ALL WE HAVE.

AH!

WHAT?

I JUST...

I SWORE I WOULDN'T LET HER DOWN AGAIN,

AND NOW, HERE WE ARE.

YOU SAID THAT EARLIER...

AND PHOEBE SWORE

THAT YOU NEVER DID LET HER DOWN.

WELL, SHE...

SHE'S BEING KIND.

SHE WAS...

WHEN MY DAD AND HIS WIFE DIED,

SHE WAS JUST A TEENAGER, YOU KNOW,

AND...

THAT'S A ROUGH TIME TO BE AN ORPHAN,

AND I WAS STARTING OUT AS A LAWYER, YOU KNOW,

HUNGRY, GOT TO SUCCEED,

SO I WASN'T REALLY THERE FOR HER, YOU KNOW,

AT LEAST NOT THE WAY I SHOULD HAVE BEEN,

AND SHE GOT IN TROUBLE, LOST HER WAY.

MM, I'M SORRY.

YEAH.

THEN... YOU KNOW...

SHE DISCOVERED MUSIC...

YOU KNOW, DISCOVERED THIS,

AND IT...

IT SAVED HER.

YOU KNOW, SHE CLEANED HERSELF UP,

STARTED OVER.

I WAS STARTING TO MAKE MONEY AS A LAWYER,

SO I COULD PUT HER THROUGH A FINE ARTS COLLEGE.

THAT WAS NICE, YOU GAVE HER...

I MEAN, YOU HELPED HER THERE, RIGHT?

RIGHT, BUT THAT WAS AFTER THE FACT.

YOU KNOW, TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE.

SHE SAVED HERSELF,

WHICH IS WHY I NEED TO SAVE HER NOW.

I OWE HER.

I REMEMBER WHEN MY FATHER DIED.

I SWORE I WOULDN'T LET HIS FIRM GO UNDER.

AND... YOU DIDN'T.

YEAH...

AND YOU... YOU WON'T LET PHOEBE DOWN.

THANK YOU.

SORRY, I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE, UM...

WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN HERE?

WE WERE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING.

A MIC STAND.

OH, UH, WE HAVE LOTS OF THOSE.

NO, NOT... NO ORDINARY MIC STAND.

THIS ONE.

UH...

WOW, YEAH.

YOU RECOGNIZE IT?

UH, YEP,

THAT'S PHOEBE'S FAVORITE MIC STAND.

ISN'T IT HERE?

NOPE, CAN'T FIND IT.

WELL, THAT'S WEIRD.

IT'S USUALLY RIGHT HERE.

WELL, IT'S NOT HERE NOW.

[MUTTERING]

[STAMMERING]

- UH, CAREFUL, PLEASE. - OH, SORRY.

THANK YOU.

ACTUALLY, IF YOU...

GO OUT THAT WAY? YEAH, OKAY, GREAT.

TERRIFIC.

WE WON'T SIT ON THAT ANYMORE.

OKAY. THANKS.

THANK YOU.

UH-OH, YOU'RE MAKING A FACE.

WHAT'S THAT FACE?

YOU HAVE AN IDEA?

MAYBE.

'CAUSE WHEN YOU MAKE THAT FACE WHEN I'M A D.A.,

I KNOW I'M IN TROUBLE

'CAUSE YOU'RE ABOUT TO WIN THE CASE.

ARE YOU ABOUT TO WIN THIS CASE?

LET'S NOT GET AHEAD OF OURSELVES, BUT...

LET'S SAY IT'S A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

I LIKE THAT.

YEAH, ME TOO.

GOOD JOB!

VINCENT. YOU'RE OKAY, FELLAS.

EASY OUT, EASY OUT.

HE'S STILL NOT PLAYING HER.

ALL RIGHT.

I'LL GO TALK TO HIM.

HE SAID SHE WAS ONE OF HIS BEST PLAYERS.

NO, HE SAID THAT SHE WASN'T BAD.

HIS TONE SAID SHE WAS ONE OF HIS BEST.

YEAH, YEAH, HIS TONE WAS PRETTY POSITIVE.

I'M GOING TO GO TALK TO HIM.

WHAT DID WE DECIDE ABOUT HONEY AND VINEGAR?

YEAH, I'M GOING TO GIVE HIM SOME VINEGAR.

YOU KNOW WHAT? I LOOKED UP THAT SAYING,

AND YOU KNOW WHO SAID IT?

- WHO? - BENJAMIN FRANKLIN.

NOW, DO YOU REALLY WANT

TO MOCK BENJAMIN FRANKLIN?

MAYBE.

SERIOUSLY?

NO, YOU DON'T.

I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

OKAY, FELLAS, EASY OUT, EASY OUT.

- GOOD GAME. - KIMINSKY, WARM UP.

YOU KNOW, I CAN'T HELP BUT NOTICE

THAT YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED THE WHOLE TEAM.

MOST OF THEM.

MOST OF THEM, YES.

MOST OF THEM.

BUT NOT ALL OF THEM.

NO, NOT ALL OF THEM.

NOT LOU.

NO, NOT LOU... PLAY THE BALL, PLAY THE BALL!

AH, WHY HAVEN'T YOU PLAYED LOU?

I'LL GET AROUND TO HER.

OH, YOU WILL?

YEP, DON'T YOU WORRY.

IN WHAT INNING?

YOU MEAN, WHAT GAME?

WHAT, SO... YOU'RE NOT GOING TO USE HER IN THIS GAME?

DON'T THINK SO... COME ON, BLUE, THAT WAS INSIDE!

DO YOU THINK THAT IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE

FOR US TO HAVE A DISCUSSION ABOUT THIS?

A DISCUSSION?

LIKE COFFEE?

OKAY.

OKAY... THIS WEEK?

SURE.

IT'S TWO-WAY, BOYS, TWO-WAY.

WELL?

WELL, IT'S WORKING.

I MEAN, IT MIGHT TAKE A LITTLE LONGER

THAN WE ORIGINALLY THOUGHT,

BUT HE'LL COME AROUND.

I GIVE HONEY ONE WEEK,

NO MATTER WHAT BEN FRANKLIN SAYS.

JUST TRUST ME.

MS. DARROW WANTED ME

TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT WHAT WE ARE.

SO, MY FIRST QUESTION IS...

WHAT ARE WE?

A LAW FIRM.

WRONG.

WE'RE A TRIBE.

A TRIBE IS A GROUP OF PEOPLE

CONNECTED TO EACH OTHER, CONNECTED TO AN IDEA,

BUT I DON'T THINK WE REALLY KNOW EACH OTHER.

SO THE FIRST THING WE'RE GOING TO DO

IS GO AROUND AND TELL EACH OTHER

THREE LITTLE-KNOWN THINGS ABOUT OURSELVES.

YOU FIRST, ZOEY.

WELL...

I WAS BORN IN WASHINGTON, D.C.

I USED TO BE A MARINE.

I SERVED A TOUR

IN AFGHANISTAN.

WOW.

I DID NOT KNOW THAT.

YOU NEVER ASKED.

SEE?

YOUR TURN, WINNIE.

UM...

MY FIRST NAME IS GODWIN.

I KNOW, WEIRD.

MY MOTHER WAS A HIPPIE,

AND I'M AN EXCELLENT BOWLER.

[CHESTER]: GOOD.

JO...

MS. DARROW.

I SHOT A MAN IN RENO JUST TO WATCH HIM DIE.

REALLY?

THAT IS A JOHNNY CASH LYRIC.

I CAN'T... DON'T YOU GUYS EVEN KNOW YOUR CLASSICS?

[CHUCKLING]

WE'LL GET BACK TO YOU.

WHO'S NEXT?

YOU ARE.

NO, I'M THE MODERATOR.

COME ON.

- CHESTER. - FAIR IS FAIR.

COME ON, CHESTER.

OKAY.

UH...

I HAVE A SLIGHT CASE OF OCD.

IT TOOK ME FOUR YEARS TO GET THROUGH LAW SCHOOL...

BUT I GRADUATED TOP OF MY CLASS.

MY FATHER'S STILL ASHAMED OF ME.

HEY, YOU GUYS READY TO GO TO THE PRE-TRIAL HEARING?

EVERYBODY READY?

[JOANNA]: GIVE THEM A MINUTE.

THEY'RE BONDING.

IT'S OKAY.

I FOUND OUT SOMETHING INTERESTING

ABOUT THE WOMAN WHO OWNED THE GUN.

OH, MRS. HUDDLESTON, YEAH.

YEAH, SHE USED TO BE A NANNY.

AMONG THE CHILDREN THAT SHE CARED FOR...

LINDA RUTHERFORD.

USED TO BE LINDA CARLTON.

NOW SHE'S LINDA YASBECK.

TERRY'S WIDOW.

EXACTLY.

SHE GOES TO VISIT HER EVERY OTHER MONTH.

SO SHE COULD HAVE STOLEN THE GUN?

MANY TIMES OVER.

YOU DID A GOOD JOB, SCOTT.

DIDN'T I?

OKAY, NOW, THIS IS JUST THE PRE-TRIAL HEARING.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING.

THEY'RE NOT GOING TO ASK YOU ANY QUESTIONS.

JUST... BE HERE.

RIGHT, AND LOOK INNOCENT.

WHICH YOU ARE, RIGHT?

YES!

OKAY.

SHE'S GOOD.

DON'T UNDERESTIMATE HER.

I NEVER UNDERESTIMATE PEOPLE.

GOOD.

WHY, IS SHE BETTER THAN I AM?

ARE YOU SERIOUS? NO, OF COURSE NOT!

WHY DO YOU THINK I HIRED YOU, JUST 'CAUSE YOU'RE CUTE?

- THANK YOU. - YOU'RE WELCOME.

WAIT, YOU THINK I'M CUTE?

YEAH.

REALLY?

EVERYBODY THINKS YOU'RE CUTE.

SO, LIKE...

- HEARING'S THIS WAY. - OKAY.

I OBJECT.

THERE'S ALREADY BEEN A GUNSHOT-RESIDUE TEST

ADMITTED AS EVIDENCE.

THAT IS TRUE, MS. DARROW.

I DON'T MEAN TO DISPARAGE THE STATE'S TEST.

I ONLY WANT TO VERIFY IT AND EXPAND ON IT.

YOUR HONOR,

I DON'T SEE THE NEED FOR US TO HAVE TO GO OVER--

I DON'T SEE ANY HARM.

I'M GOING TO ALLOW IT.

JUDGE BATCHELLER ALWAYS SAYS THAT AT FIRST.

I KNOW, CHESTER. PAY ATTENTION.

SO, DR. ARMSTRONG,

IS THIS THE RESULT OF THE NEW TEST

YOU ADMINISTERED ON PHOEBE STRASBERG'S HANDS?

[DR. ARMSTRONG]: YES.

THE TESTS WERE SOME DAYS AFTER THE EVENT,

SO IT WAS DIFFICULT TO OBTAIN ANY DEFINITE RESULTS.

BUT YOU DID?

I DID. I'M AN EXPERT.

YES, I KNOW, WE ESTABLISHED THAT,

AND WHAT WERE THE RESULTS YOU FOUND?

THE RESULTS CAME BACK POSITIVE.

[D.A.]: I OBJECT AGAIN.

THIS MERELY CONFIRMS THE STATE'S EVIDENCE,

AND IT'S A WASTE OF THE COURT'S TIME.

I BEG THE COURT'S INDULGENCE, YOUR HONOR.

FOR A FEW MORE MINUTES, MS. DARROW.

THANK YOU.

SO, IT CAME BACK POSITIVE FOR GUNSHOT RESIDUE?

[DR. ARMSTRONG]: YES.

[CLAIRE]: WHAT ELSE?

OBJECTION!

OVERRULED.

BRAKE FLUID.

BRAKE FLUID?

LIKE, FROM A CAR?

[DR. ARMSTRONG]: INDEED. IT COULD BE EITHER ONE.

BRAKE FLUID CAN PRODUCE A FALSE POSITIVE IN A GSR TEST.

NO FURTHER QUESTIONS, YOUR HONOR.

SCORE ONE FOR MS. DARROW.

[JUDGE]: ALTHOUGH THE DEFENSE HAS PRESENTED

SOME SERIOUS QUESTIONS

AS TO THE VALIDITY OF THE GSR TEST,

THE COURT FEELS

THAT THE STATE'S CASE IS STRONG ENOUGH TO GO TO TRIAL.

BAIL HAS BEEN SET FOR $500,000.

[RAPPING GAVEL]

I'LL FIND A WAY.

SO, COACH REED...

I FEEL FUNNY CALLING YOU COACH.

WHAT DO YOUR FRIENDS CALL YOU?

COACH.

REALLY?

YOU CAN CALL ME JOANNA.

JO?

WHY NOT?

LET'S TALK ABOUT LOU.

WHAT ABOUT HER?

DO YOU THINK SHE'S A GOOD PLAYER?

COULD BE.

IF SHE PLAYED MORE?

COULD BE.

SO WHY DON'T YOU LET HER PLAY MORE...

OR AT ALL?

I DON'T KNOW.

WHY DON'T YOU THINK I PLAY HER MORE?

BECAUSE SHE'S A GIRL.

- THAT'D BE DISCRIMINATION. - YES, IT WOULD.

SHE'S ON THE TEAM.

TRUE.

SO I'M NOT DISCRIMINATING AGAINST HER.

NEXT QUESTION?

I...

GIRLS HAVE EVERY BIT AS MUCH RIGHT

TO PLAY BASEBALL

AS BOYS DO.

OF COURSE THEY DO.

YOU KNOW, THEY'RE JUST AS STRONG.

THAT'S A MATTER OF OPINION, I GUESS.

SO ARE YOU WORRIED ABOUT HER GETTING HURT?

I DON'T WANT ANY OF MY KIDS TO GET HURT,

THE BOYS OR THE GIRLS.

OH, SO YOU'RE PROTECTING HER,

AND THAT'S WHY YOU'RE NOT LETTING HER PLAY?

IT'S A BOY'S GAME, JO.

IT'S NOT "JO", IT'S JOANNA.

NO, IT'S MS. DARROW,

AND WHO SAYS IT'S A BOY'S GAME?

EVERYBODY.

I MEAN, FOR A GIRL TO REALLY BE ABLE TO COMPETE,

SHE'D HAVE TO BE EXCEPTIONAL.

OH!

OH, SO SHE'D HAVE TO BE BETTER THAN THE REST

JUST TO GET TO PLAY?

YEAH, I GUESS,

BUT WHY GET HER HOPES UP ANYWAY?

LET HER PLAY SOFTBALL, JO.

THAT'S A GIRL'S SPORT.

BUT SHE LOVES BASEBALL.

I MEAN, WHY SHOULDN'T SHE BE ABLE

TO PLAY THE GAME SHE LOVES?

I MEAN, ESPECIALLY IF SHE'S GOOD AT IT,

AND SHE IS GOOD AT IT...

AND IF YOU'RE GOOD AT ONE THING,

JUST ONE THING,

THAT CAN AFFECT THE REST OF YOUR LIFE,

AND... IT CAN MAKE YOU BELIEVE

THAT YOU CAN DO ANYTHING.

YOU REALLY WANT TO STAND IN THE WAY OF THAT?

OKAY.

I'LL GIVE HER A SHOT.

REALLY?

SURE THING.

IT'S GOOD COFFEE.

THE NEXT ONE'S ON ME.

THANK YOU FOR BAILING ME OUT.

OF COURSE.

I HONESTLY DON'T KNOW

HOW I'M GOING TO PAY YOU BACK.

I'LL GET THE MONEY BACK

WHEN YOU SHOW UP FOR TRIAL... RIGHT?

RIGHT. OF COURSE.

WHERE ELSE WOULD I BE?

I KNOW THINGS DON'T LOOK GREAT RIGHT NOW,

BUT CLAIRE IS THE BEST ATTORNEY IN THE STATE.

I KNOW, BUT...

JUST GOT TO HAVE FAITH.

OKAY?

OKAY. OKAY.

OKAY.

I'M SORRY.

IT'S NO PROBLEM.

IT'S OUR SPACE.

CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?

IT ACTUALLY WORKED.

HUH.

CLAIRE?

WHAT?

YOU WERE ON ANOTHER PLANET.

YOU WERE IN ORBIT THERE. DID YOU BRING ANYTHING BACK?

NO.

NO. DID YOU TALK TO MRS. YASBECK?

YES, I DID.

OKAY.

SHE TOOK THE GUN AWAY FROM MRS. HUDDLESTON

BECAUSE SHE WAS AFRAID

SHE WAS GOING TO HURT HERSELF WITH IT

BECAUSE SHE'S IN EARLY-STAGE DEMENTIA.

SO MRS. YASBECK SAYS.

SHE GAVE THE GUN TO TERRY, WHO KEPT IT IN HIS OFFICE.

SO ANYONE COULD HAVE GOTTEN THEIR HANDS ON IT.

INCLUDING PHOEBE.

UGH, SO WE'RE BACK TO SQUARE ONE.

DO YOU THINK SHE'S BEING FRAMED?

I THINK THERE'S TWO POSSIBILITIES.

ONE, SHE'S BEING FRAMED...

AND I DON'T THINK YOU WANT

TO CONSIDER THE SECOND POSSIBILITY...

I CONSIDER ALL POSSIBILITIES.

THAT SHE KILLED TERRY YASBECK?

SHE DIDN'T KILL HIM.

LOOK, USING OCCAM'S RAZOR...

OH, OCCAM'S RAZOR AGAIN, I HATE OCCAM'S RAZOR.

OKAY, THERE ARE TWO POSSIBILITIES.

THE SIMPLEST ONE IS THE MOST LIKELY.

WHAT DOES OCCAM KNOW?

I DIDN'T EVEN THINK THERE WAS AN OCCAM.

WELL, THERE WAS.

HE WAS A FRANCISCAN FRIAR.

OKAY, WELL, NOW I FEEL BAD,

BUT HE WASN'T A LAWYER.

NO, NO, HE WASN'T A LAWYER.

YOU DON'T THINK SHE DID IT, DO YOU?

JUDGING BY THE FACTS, I THINK SHE DID, YES.

BUT WHAT DOES YOUR GUT SAY?

MY GUT TELLS ME

THAT YOU REALLY WANT HER TO BE INNOCENT.

- THAT WASN'T THE QUESTION. - I KNOW.

CHESTER?

HAVE YOU LEARNED ANYTHING FROM YASBECK'S COMPUTER SYSTEM?

JUST THAT I DON'T CARE FOR CONTEMPORARY MUSIC.

KEEP LOOKING.

UH, I THINK I MAY HAVE SOMETHING HERE.

WHAT?

YOU WANTED ME TO CALL DR. ARMSTRONG

AND HAVE HIM ANALYZE THE BRAKE FLUID.

WELL, HE CAME BACK

WITH SOMETHING PRETTY INTERESTING.

IT'S A BRAND OF FLUID THAT ISN'T USED VERY MUCH ANYMORE,

MOSTLY ON OLD MUSCLE CARS.

UH-HUH...

YOU'RE THINKING JONAH'S MUSTANG?

I AM.

OKAY...

SO YOU THINK THAT MAYBE DELIBERATELY,

SOMEONE PUT BRAKE-FLUID OIL

ON HER HANDS

TO CAUSE A FALSE POSITIVE ON THE GUNSHOT-RESIDUE TEST?

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I'M THINKING.

ALL RIGHT, WELL, LET'S TRACK THIS THROUGH, THEN.

WHO WOULD KNOW THAT THAT WOULD WORK?

UH... SOMEBODY WITH A BACKGROUND IN, UH...

SCIENCE, CHEMISTRY, LAW ENFORCEMENT?

OR HE COULD HAVE GOOGLED IT.

THAT'S WHAT I DID.

I HATE THE INTERNET.

I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

OH, WAIT, SO...

YOU'RE SAYING

YOU THINK THE BRAKE FLUID CAME

FROM JONAH'S CAR?

I'M JUST SAYING, IT'S WORTH CHECKING OUT.

ALL RIGHT.

[RINGING DOORBELL]

[KNOCKING]

[RINGING DOORBELL]

PHOEBE?

MILES!

UH, I WAS JUST LOOKING FOR JONAH.

WE ARE TOO.

WELL, THERE'S A SIDE DOOR.

[COUGHING]

OH, MY GOSH.

JONAH!

JONAH!

OH, MY GOSH. CALL 911.

HEY!

HEY, HEY...

HOW'S JONAH?

IS HE GOING TO BE ALL RIGHT?

NOBODY WILL TELL ME ANYTHING.

HE HAS A CONCUSSION.

HE'S GOING TO RECOVER,

BUT IF WE HADN'T COME IN,

HE WOULD HAVE DIED

FROM CARBON-MONOXIDE POISONING.

SO DO YOU THINK SOMEBODY HIT HIM ON THE HEAD

AND THEN STARTED THE CAR TO KILL HIM?

YES.

CONSENSUS OF OPINION SEEMS TO BE THAT WAS YOU.

I SWEAR TO GOD,

I JUST GOT THERE WHEN YOU DID.

WHAT WERE YOU DOING THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE?

I GOT A PHONE CALL.

FROM WHO?

I DON'T KNOW. THE NUMBER WAS BLOCKED.

SO WHY'D YOU ANSWER IT?

I JUST DID. YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES, YOU JUST DO.

NO, I DON'T. I DON'T EVER...

WELL, I JUST DID.

OKAY.

ANYWAY, WHO WAS IT?

I STILL DIDN'T KNOW.

THE VOICE WAS ALTERED ELECTRONICALLY.

WHAT DID IT SAY?

THAT JONAH HAD MY ALBUM.

AND YOU BELIEVED IT?

NO, OF COURSE, I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT.

I STILL HAD TO GO CHECK IT OUT AND SEE, DIDN'T I?

I THOUGHT YOU DIDN'T CARE ABOUT THE ALBUM.

IT'S STILL TWO YEARS' WORTH OF WORK,

OF SWEAT AND TEARS.

I AT LEAST HAD TO GO TALK TO JONAH,

JUST SEE IF HE HAD IT,

AND THAT'S WHEN I RAN INTO YOU GUYS.

SO THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN CORROBORATE THIS STORY

IS AN UNIDENTIFIED VOICE ON THE TELEPHONE?

DOESN'T SOUND TOO GOOD, DOES IT?

NO, IT DOESN'T.

[MILES]: NOT SO GOOD, NO,

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?

WE'LL GO TALK TO JONAH...

YEAH.

SEE IF HE HAS ANYTHING HE CAN SAY ABOUT THIS.

WELL, TELL HIM I SAY HELLO...

AND THAT I DIDN'T TRY TO KILL HIM.

YEAH, LOOK,

PHOEBES...

THIS IS ALL GOING TO BE OKAY.

I KNOW YOU'RE LYING, BUT...

THANK YOU FOR SAYING THAT.

HANG TIGHT.

I WAS LUCKY.

YOU CALL THIS LUCKY?

CALL ME A "SKULL HALF-CRUSHED" KIND OF GUY.

ANOTHER FEW MINUTES, AND I'D HAVE BEEN DEAD.

I LIKE THAT HALF-CRUSHED ANALOGY.

HALF-CRUSHED IS GOOD, FULL-CRUSHED IS BAD.

DID YOU SEE WHO HIT YOU ON THE HEAD?

I DON'T REMEMBER.

IT'S ALL KIND OF JUMBLED.

DID YOU SEE PHOEBE IN THE GARAGE?

I DON'T REMEMBER.

DO YOU HAVE PHOEBE'S ALBUM?

NO, OF COURSE NOT.

WHY WOULD YOU ASK THAT?

I ASK YOU THAT BECAUSE...

PHOEBE GOT A-- WHAT WOULD YOU CALL IT,

AN ANONYMOUS CALL FROM AN--

- A ROBOT... - ELECTRONICALLY-ALTERED VOICE

THAT SAID YOU HAD HER ALBUM.

WELL, I DON'T.

WHO WOULD MAKE A CALL LIKE THAT?

WE DON'T KNOW.

DID ANYBODY ELSE HEAR THE CALL?

- NO. - NO.

WELL, THEN HOW DO YOU KNOW...?

WE DON'T. WE...

WE DON'T KNOW THAT PHOEBE'S TELLING THE TRUTH.

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA

WHO HAS THE ALBUM?

WELL, I COULDN'T SAY.

YOU COULDN'T SAY?

WELL, UNLESS...

EVAN CARLTON.

HOW WOULD HE GET IT?

I DON'T KNOW.

I JUST KNOW THAT HE WAS TRYING TO GET IT AWAY FROM TERRY.

HOW?

I DON'T KNOW.

MAYBE HE WENT TO SEE TERRY THE NIGHT HE...

THE NIGHT HE WAS KILLED?

YEAH, IT WOULD HAVE TO HAVE BEEN.

OKAY, WELL...

OH, UM...

PHOEBE SAYS TO SAY HI...

AND SHE DIDN'T TRY TO KILL YOU.

OKAY.

OKAY.

TELL HER I BELIEVE HER.

I WILL.

FEEL BETTER.

[HOSPITAL P.A.]: DR. FORREST, PLEASE DIAL 118.

NO, EVAN CARLTON WANTED

TO STEAL PHOEBE AWAY FROM TERRY,

BECAUSE TERRY STOLE EVAN'S WIFE AWAY FROM HIM.

HE HATED TERRY.

SO YOU THINK EVAN CARLTON

KILLED TERRY YASBECK?

TRY THIS ONE OUT FOR SIZE.

EVAN GOES TO TERRY AND SAYS, "HEY,

I'M GOING TO TAKE PHOEBE AWAY FROM YOU,

AND NOT ONLY THAT,

I'M GOING TO TAKE PHOEBE'S ALBUM AWAY FROM YOU."

TERRY REFUSES, OF COURSE.

THINGS ESCALATE, OLD TENSIONS BOIL OVER...

BOOM, EVAN PULLS A GUN ON TERRY.

YEAH, AS A D.A., I WOULDN'T PROSECUTE HIM.

LET'S GO TALK TO HIM. MAYBE HE'LL CONFESS.

SHOULD I BE GOOD COP OR BAD COP?

LET'S BE LAWYERS.

THAT'LL NEVER WORK.

[MILES]: SO, THE LAST TIME WE WERE HERE,

WE ESTABLISHED

THAT TERRY YASBECK STOLE YOUR WIFE.

THAT'S FAIR TO SAY?

HE COULDN'T STEAL HER.

I DIDN'T OWN LINDA, I WAS MARRIED TO HER,

AND YEAH, SHE CHOSE TERRY OVER ME,

AND I LET HER GO, END OF STORY.

AND YOU DIDN'T RESENT THAT AT ALL?

I'VE PUT THAT ALL BEHIND ME.

YOU SEEM AWFULLY FORGIVING TOWARD TERRY YASBECK,

I MEAN,

COMPARED TO THE OTHER DAY WHEN WE WERE HERE.

YEAH, YOU KNOW, I FEEL BAD ABOUT THAT.

I SHOULDN'T HAVE SPOKEN ABOUT HIM THAT WAY

SO SOON AFTER...

AFTER YOU KILLED HIM?

LOOK, I DIDN'T KILL TERRY, OKAY?

BUT YOU HAD A REASON TO, RIGHT?.

RIGHT, LOOK...

I GUESS I SHOULDN'T BE SURPRISED SHE TOLD YOU,

SEEING AS HOW YOU ARE HER BROTHER.

SHE IS MY SISTER,

BUT WE'D LIKE TO HEAR IT COMING FROM YOU.

ALL RIGHT.

I'M IN LOVE WITH YOUR SISTER,

AND WHEN I FOUND OUT HOW TERRY WAS TREATING HER,

AFTER WHAT HE DID TO ME...

YEAH, I WAS ANGRY, VERY ANGRY.

SO YOU WENT TO SEE HIM THAT NIGHT.

HOW DID YOU KNOW THAT?

I DIDN'T... UNTIL JUST NOW.

YEAH, YEAH, OKAY, I WENT TO SEE HIM,

BUT IT WAS JUST TO GET HER OUT OF THE CONTRACT.

I WANTED TO GET HER ALBUM BACK, AND WE GOT INTO AN ARGUMENT.

AND?

AND THAT'S IT.

HE WOULDN'T DO EITHER.

HE JUST LAUGHED AT ME,

SO I WENT HOME AND...

YOU KNOW, I FIGURED I'D LET THE LAWYERS HANDLE IT.

AND THAT'S IT?

THAT'S IT.

I DON'T BELIEVE YOU, MR. CARLTON.

WHAT DO YOU WANT, HUH?

DO YOU WANT TO LOOK AT MY COMPUTER,

SEE IF HER ALBUM'S THERE?

WE DON'T HAVE A WARRANT.

YOU DON'T NEED ONE. I'LL LOOK FOR YOU.

HER ALBUM IS CALLED

"JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF MY SOUL."

♪ BE MY RIDE OR DIE ♪

♪ EVERY SINGLE DAY AND NIGHT ♪

♪ NEVER GONNA LEAVE YOUR SIDE, LOVE ♪

WELL, WELL.

WHAT'S THAT, MR. CARLTON?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND. IT'S HER ALBUM.

- HOW DID IT GET THERE? - I DON'T KNOW!

- TERRY GIVE IT TO YOU? - NO.

MAYBE YOU TOOK IT...

THE NIGHT YOU KILLED HIM.

♪ I DON'T CARE IF THEY SAY SLOW DOWN, TOO YOUNG ♪

♪ I DON'T CARE WHAT THEY SAY ♪

♪ BE MY RIDE OR DIE ♪

SO EVAN HAS MY ALBUM?

THAT'S AMAZING.

DO YOU KNOW EVAN IS IN LOVE WITH YOU?

YES.

YES.

ARE YOU IN LOVE WITH HIM?

YES.

YES?

WHY...

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US THAT?

I JUST, I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS IMPORTANT.

OR WAS IT BECAUSE YOU WERE PROTECTING HIM?

WAS IT BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT THAT GAVE HIM A MOTIVE?

DO YOU THINK

EVAN CARLTON KILLED TERRY?

I... I THINK HE COULD HAVE...

FOR ME.

[COACH]: OKAY, FELLAS, THAT'S TWO-WAY!

TWO-WAY, FELLAS!

GOOD JOB!

HE'S STILL NOT PLAYING HER.

HE'S GOING TO PUT HER IN.

HE'S JUST WAITING FOR THE RIGHT TIME.

HE'S ACTUALLY A VERY REASONABLE GUY.

YOU LIKED HIM?

I DIDN'T SAY THAT.

I JUST SAID THAT HE'S A REASONABLE GUY.

YOU WEREN'T TALKING ABOUT HIM THAT WAY

BEFORE YOU GUYS HAD COFFEE.

WAIT A MINUTE...

YOU LIKE-LIKE HIM.

I DON'T LIKE-LIKE HIM.

YES!

NO, I JUST THINK

THAT YOU AND I MAYBE, UM...

YOU KNOW, WE JUST DIDN'T GIVE HIM

THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT.

OH, BOY, YOU REALLY LIKE HIM.

YOU KNOW, I JUST... BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND

WHY HE HASN'T PUT HER IN YET.

WELL, I DON'T CARE IF YOU LIKE-LIKE HIM.

IF HE DOESN'T PUT HER IN...

I KNOW, YOU'RE GOING

TO GIVE HIM A PIECE OF YOUR MIND.

DON'T THINK I WON'T!

I'M SURE YOU WILL.

[CLAIRE]: IT'S THE BOTTOM OF THE NINTH.

I CAN'T BELIEVE HE HASN'T PUT HER IN YET.

HE PROMISED ME!

GOOD TRY, BUDDY!

GOOD TRY, HUEY! WE GOT SOMEONE ON THIRD, BOYS.

WE GOT SOMEONE ON THIRD.

HE'S NOT GOING TO PLAY HER.

TO THINK THAT I LIKED THIS GUY!

ALL RIGHT.

WHAT'S HE DOING?

LOU!

YOU'RE UP.

HE'S ASKING HER TO PINCH HIT!

IN THE BOTTOM OF THE NINTH.

THAT'S KIND OF A BIG DEAL, RIGHT?

YEAH.

[COACH CLAPPING]

LET'S GO. COME ON.

COME ON, LOU.

I KNOW, I'M NERVOUS.

[CROWD GASPING]

NOT GOOD?

NO.

COME ON, BABY.

COME ON, COME ON, COME ON, COME ON.

BOO-YAH!

[CROWD CHEERING]

[CLAIRE]: GO, LOU!

[COACH]: BOO-YAH!

WHOO!

[CLAIRE]: GO, LOU!

LOU! LOU-LOU-LOU-LOU-LOU!

THAT'S MY GRANDDAUGHTER.

YEAH!

WHOO! [WHISTLING]

[CLAIRE]: SEE, COACH?

WOW, YOU HIT THAT BALL RIGHT DOWN THE CENTER, BAM!

LOU, THAT WAS AWESOME.

WHERE DID YOU LEARN HOW TO HIT LIKE THAT?

MY DAD AND I USED TO PRACTICE TOGETHER.

I THOUGHT YOU GUYS JUST PRACTICED PITCHING?

WELL, YEAH,

BUT WE WORKED ON EVERYTHING.

HE WOULD HAVE BEEN SO PROUD OF YOU.

UH...

EXCUSE ME, I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

WHAT DID YOU THINK YOU WERE DOING OUT THERE?

WHAT?

I LET YOUR GRANDDAUGHTER BE THE HERO.

YOU WERE SETTING HER UP.

YOU WANTED TO CUT HER FROM THE TEAM.

YOU COULD CHOOSE TO BELIEVE THAT...

OR YOU COULD CHOOSE TO BELIEVE

THAT I GAVE HER A CHANCE TO SINK OR SWIM,

AND SHE SWAM.

[JOANNA]: AND WHAT ABOUT NEXT WEEK?

[COACH]: I'LL GIVE HER ANOTHER CHANCE.

YOU'RE GOING TO LET HER PITCH?

WE'LL SEE.

YOU DON'T TREAT ANY OF THE OTHER KIDS LIKE THIS.

NO, I DON'T.

BECAUSE SHE'S A GIRL.

BECAUSE SHE'S SPECIAL...

UNLIKE THE OTHER KIDS.

OH, OH, SO... BECAUSE SHE'S SPECIAL,

YOU TREAT HER WORSE THAN EVERYBODY ELSE?

THAT'S RIGHT...

'CAUSE I WANT HER TO WORK FOR IT.

RESISTANCE BUILDS STRENGTH, YOU KNOW.

SO DO YOU WANT TO GET ANOTHER COFFEE SOMETIME?

HMM...

AH, WE'LL SEE.

[PHOEBE]: YEAH?

[TERRY]: PHOEBE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

ARE YOU ASLEEP?

[PHOEBE]: UH, UM, I'M SORRY.

[TERRY]: TRY IT AGAIN!

MR. WYLKES AND HIS GRANDDAUGHTER

BELIEVE IN OBEYING THE LETTER OF THE LAW,

AND HERE IS A LICENSE

FOR THE PURVEYING OF LIQUID REFRESHMENT,

SIGNED AND NOTARIZED.

YOU'LL FIND THAT IT PERTAINS

TO YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND ITS ENVIRONS.

IT'S DATED TODAY.

YES, THAT'S RIGHT.

WHAT ABOUT LAST WEEK

WHEN THEY WERE OPERATING ILLEGALLY?

[JOANNA LAUGHING]

WELL, I THINK THAT WE CAN FORGIVE A FEW DAYS OF...

I DON'T. I DON'T FORGIVE ANYBODY.

I'M STILL GOING TO SUE THEM

AND PROSECUTE THEM

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW.

REALLY?

YOU'RE REALLY GOING TO DO THIS?

I REALLY AM.

ALL RIGHT, MRS. BELLAMY, UM...

WHAT IF WE WERE TO LOOK INTO YOUR BUILDING VIOLATIONS?

I DON'T HAVE ANY.

HMM, THAT APARTMENT ABOVE YOUR GARAGE?

IT HAS A BATHROOM, DOESN'T IT?

IS YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD ZONED FOR THAT?

AND WHAT ABOUT UNLAWFUL GARAGE CONVERSIONS?

HMM?

HOW DID YOU KNOW

ABOUT ALL THOSE ZONING VIOLATIONS?

OH, I DIDN'T,

BUT COME ON,

EVERYONE'S GOT ZONING VIOLATIONS, RIGHT?

[LAUGHING]

SEE?

TOLD YOU I WAS GOING TO DO IT.

♪ NEVER GONNA LEAVE YOUR-- ♪

- [TERRY]: HEY, PHOEBE? - [PHOEBE]: YEAH?

[TERRY]: PHOEBE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

ARE YOU ASLEEP?

[PHOEBE]: UH, UM, I'M SORRY.

[TERRY]: TRY IT AGAIN!

CHESTER, GO THROUGH THE COMPUTER SYSTEM AGAIN.

SEARCH EVERYTHING FROM THE NIGHT OF THE MURDER.

I'VE BEEN THROUGH IT.

GO THROUGH IT AGAIN.

[PHOEBE]: I SWEAR,

IF YOU DO THAT... YOU'LL BE SORRY.

[TERRY]: OH, I'M TREMBLING.

[PHONE RINGING]

[CLEARING THROAT]

IT'S THE WIFE.

DO YOU MIND?

HELLO.

I'M COMING HOME SOON, HON'.

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

I JUST HEARD SOMETHING FOR THE FIRST TIME.

DON'T YOU HEAR IT?

HEAR WHAT?

WINNIE, GET ME THE TRANSCRIPT

FROM LINDA YASBECK'S TESTIMONY.

JUST A SEC.

HERE IT IS.

READ THE PART

WHERE SHE TALKS ABOUT HER HUSBAND'S MURDER,

THE NIGHT OF THE CALL.

WHEN HE WAS SHOT?

UM, OKAY.

"I'M COMING HOME SOON, HON'."

[TERRY]: I'M COMING HOME SOON, HON'.

OKAY, I...

HEY, PHOEBE? PHOEBE, WHAT ARE YOU--

[GUN FIRING]

[CRASHING]

"HEY, PHOEBE?"

"PHOEBE, WHAT ARE YOU..."

AND THEN SHE HEARS THE GUN SHOT.

EVERYTHING HE SAID WAS IN THIS RECORDING.

SOMEBODY COULD HAVE EDITED THIS AND PLACED THE CALL.

WHICH WOULD MEAN TERRY MIGHT HAVE ALREADY BEEN DEAD BY 1:30.

AND IF THAT'S THE CASE,

THEN PHOEBE WOULD HAVE BEEN PLAYING AT THE CLUB.

SHE'D HAVE AN AIRTIGHT ALIBI.

YOU'VE GOT TO PROVE IT.

LOOK, IT'S THE TRUTH, RIGHT?

DON'T KILL ME.

I'M JUST THE MESSENGER.

YOU EVER WONDER

WHY THE MESSENGER HAS SO FEW FRIENDS?

UGH.

MRS. YASBECK,

I'M SORRY TO HAVE TO ASK YOU TO DO THIS AGAIN,

BUT DO YOU REMEMBER THE PHONE CALL

YOU RECEIVED FROM YOUR HUSBAND

ON THE NIGHT IN QUESTION?

[LINDA]: YES.

I'LL NEVER FORGET IT.

DO YOU REMEMBER HIS EXACT WORDS?

OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR.

I SEE NO REASON ON EARTH

TO PUT MRS. YASBECK THROUGH THIS ORDEAL AGAIN.

I'M INCLINED TO AGREE.

IT DOES SEEM UNNECESSARY.

IF THE COURT WOULD JUST INDULGE ME

FOR ONE MORE MINUTE.

I, FOR ONE,

AM TIRED OF INDULGING MS. DARROW.

YOUR HONOR...

ENOUGH.

WHAT ABOUT YOU, MRS. YASBECK?

DO YOU OBJECT?

NO.

I REMEMBER HIS EXACT WORDS.

HE SAID, "I'LL BE COMING HOME SOON, HON'."

THOSE WERE HIS FIRST WORDS?

[LINDA]: YES.

HE DIDN'T SAY HELLO?

NO, HE DIDN'T.

DID HE USUALLY SAY HELLO?

I GUESS USUALLY,

YES, HE SAID HELLO.

OKAY.

AND THEN WHAT DID HE SAY NEXT?

"HEY, PHOEBE."

[CLAIRE]: WAS IT A QUESTION?

PARDON?

WAS IT LIKE, "HEY, PHOEBE," OR WAS IT LIKE, "HEY, PHOEBE?"

I DON'T KNOW.

OKAY, WHAT DID HE SAY NEXT?

HE SAID, "PHOEBE, WHAT ARE YOU..."

THANK YOU. YOU DON'T HAVE TO CONTINUE.

DID IT SOUND SOMETHING LIKE THIS?

CHESTER.

[TERRY]: I'M COMING HOME SOON, HON'.

HEY, PHOEBE? PHOEBE, WHAT ARE YOU...

YES, YES.

OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR!

NON-DISCLOSURE.

HOW DID MS. DARROW GET A COPY OF THAT PHONE CALL?

I WAS WONDERING

THE SAME THING, MS. DARROW.

I DIDN'T.

MY ASSOCIATE, CHESTER LIME, PIECED IT TOGETHER

FROM BITS OF A CONVERSATION ON A STUDIO TAPE.

SO THAT WASN'T THE CALL THAT MRS. YASBECK HEARD?

ACTUALLY, THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT MRS. YASBECK HEARD

BECAUSE THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THE KILLER DID.

I OBJECT AGAIN.

ARE WE SUPPOSED TO TAKE MS. DARROW'S WORD FOR IT

THAT THIS MAGICAL AUDIO TRICK IS POSSIBLE?

OBJECTION SUSTAINED!

THAT'S MY JOB,

MS. DARROW.

[CLAIRE]: I'M SORRY, I WAS JUST TRYING TO SAVE TIME,

BECAUSE I WOULD LIKE TO CALL AN EXPERT ON AUDIO ENGINEERING.

I WOULD LIKE TO CALL JONAH LAROCHELLE.

[MUTTERING]

[CLAIRE]: MR. LAROCHELLE,

IN YOUR EXPERT OPINION,

COULD THE AUDIO HAVE BEEN ALTERED IN THE WAY DESCRIBED?

I IMAGINE IT COULD.

COULD YOU HAVE MADE THIS RECORDING YOURSELF?

I THINK I COULD HAVE.

DID YOU MAKE THIS RECORDING?

I... NO! THAT'S RIDICULOUS.

WELL, WHO WAS IN A BETTER POSITION TO MAKE IT?

PHOEBE.

SHE USED TO BE MY ASSISTANT.

SHE KNOWS ALL ABOUT AUDIO ENGINEERING,

AND BESIDES, SHE TRIED TO KILL ME, REMEMBER?

SHE HIT ME ON THE HEAD

AND THEN TRIED TO ASPHYXIATE ME WITH MY OWN CAR.

[CLAIRE]: OH, YES, THE CAR.

YOU WERE VERY LUCKY...

OR WERE YOU LUCKY?

MAYBE YOU WERE JUST... CAREFUL.

OBJECTION.

[JUDGE]: I'M GOING TO ALLOW IT.

I WANT TO SEE WHERE THIS IS GOING.

DID YOU STAGE THAT ASSAULT ON YOURSELF,

MR. LAROCHELLE?

WHY ON EARTH WOULD I DO THAT?

TO DIVERT SUSPICION FROM YOURSELF

AND MAKE IT LOOK

LIKE PHOEBE STRASBERG TRIED TO KILL YOU.

OBJECTION!

WITHDRAWN.

TELL ME, I WANT TO SEE

IF YOU RECOGNIZE THIS OBJECT WE'VE LABELED EXHIBIT C.

SURE, IT'S A MIC STAND.

WHICH MIC STAND?

IT'S A MIC STAND.

THEY ALL LOOK ALIKE.

I DON'T THINK SO.

THIS MIC STAND WAS FOUND

IN THE DUMPSTER OF A CHINESE RESTAURANT

THREE BLOCKS FROM TERRY YASBECK'S STUDIO.

DO YOU SEE THE RED CLIP?

WHAT?

OH, YEAH, IT LOOKS LIKE PHOEBE'S MIC STAND,

THE ONE THAT SHE ALWAYS LIKED.

[CLAIRE]: YOU ARE CORRECT.

IN FACT, WE ARE PREPARED TO PROVE

THAT THAT IS PHOEBE'S MIC STAND,

AND WE ARE ALSO PREPARED TO PROVE

THAT THE INSIDE TUBE OF THAT MIC STAND

AND THE RED CLIP

ARE BOTH COATED WITH BRAKE FLUID--

BRAKE FLUID

FROM A CAR...

NOT UNLIKE YOURS, MR. LAROCHELLE.

OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR.

THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THIS BRAKE FLUID

AND THE BRAKE FLUID IN MR. LAROCHELLE'S CAR...

[CLAIRE]: HAS NOT BEEN PROVEN.

YOU KNOW WHAT? YOU ARE CORRECT, MRS. ASHLAND,

AND I DON'T THINK IT CAN BE PROVEN...

BUT IT IS INTERESTING, DON'T YOU THINK?

NOT REALLY.

BECAUSE SOMEBODY KNEW

THAT THE STATE WOULD GIVE PHOEBE STRASBERG

A GUNSHOT-RESIDUE TEST

AFTER TERRY YASBECK WAS KILLED,

AND THAT PERSON KNEW

THAT BRAKE FLUID COULD CAUSE A FALSE POSITIVE ON THE TEST.

I MEAN, YOU CAN FIND THAT OUT ON THE INTERNET...

AND THAT PERSON DID THAT

BECAUSE THAT PERSON KILLED TERRY YASBECK

AND TRIED TO FRAME PHOEBE STRASBERG

FOR THE CRIME.

WELL, IT WASN'T ME.

I WAS WITH PHOEBE AT THE NIGHTCLUB

WHEN TERRY WAS KILLED.

HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?

HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN TERRY WAS KILLED?

I DON'T. YOU'RE CONFUSING ME.

DO I HAVE TO ANSWER?

YOU KIND OF DO.

UH, COULD YOU REPEAT THE QUESTION?

WITHDRAWN.

I'D LIKE TO PLAY THAT TAPE FOR YOU AGAIN.

OBJECTION.

[CLAIRE]: MR. LAROCHELLE IS AN EXPERT.

I WOULD LIKE HIS OPINION ON IT.

OVERRULED.

PROCEED, MS. DARROW.

[CLAIRE]: THANK YOU, YOUR HONOR.

CHESTER?

READY.

[TERRY]: I'M COMING HOME SOON, HON'.

HEY, PHOEBE? PHOEBE, WHAT ARE YOU--

WELL?

LIKE SHE SAID, I'VE ALREADY HEARD IT.

OH, BUT YOU HAVEN'T.

THAT IS A DIFFERENT RECORDING.

THAT IS A RECORDING

THAT MY ASSOCIATE, CHESTER LIME, WHO IS VERY THOROUGH,

FOUND ON TERRY YASBECK'S STUDIO COMPUTER SYSTEM.

WELL, THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.

IT WAS REALLY HARD TO FIND.

HE HAD TO SEARCH THROUGH ALL THESE DELETED FILES

AND RECONSTRUCT IT.

I DID.

WE BELIEVE YOU, MR. LIME.

[CLAIRE]: BUT IN THE END, HE FOUND IT,

BECAUSE COMPUTERS ARE LIKE ELEPHANTS...

THEY REMEMBER EVERYTHING...

AND YOU KNOW WHOSE FILE IT WAS DELETED FROM?

NO.

IT WAS YOURS.

WHY'D YOU MAKE THAT RECORDING?

IT WAS A JOKE.

WAS IT?

I'M NOT LAUGHING, MR. LAROCHELLE.

YOUR WIFE IS PHOEBE'S BACKUP SINGER,

ISN'T THAT RIGHT?

[JONAH]: YES.

ARE YOU AWARE THAT YOUR WIFE

SENT TERRY YASBECK AN EMAIL

THE WEEK OF THE MURDER?

AN EMAIL?

WITH AN ATTACHMENT.

I, I, I... I SEEM TO REMEMBER SOMETHING.

SHE SENT HIM AN E-MAIL OF HER SINGING.

IT WAS ONE OF PHOEBE'S SONGS.

WHY DID SHE DO THAT?

I THINK HE REQUESTED IT.

HMM, WELL...

HER E-MAIL READS AS FOLLOWS...

"I THINK I SING THIS SONG

MUCH BETTER THAN THAT NO-TALENT PHOEBE."

[LAUGHING]

SHE WAS JOKING.

WAS SHE?

HERE'S TERRY'S REPLY.

"PATHETIC.

STICK TO BEING A BACK-UP SINGER.

YOU CAN JUST BARELY DO THAT."

HE WAS JOKING.

HILARIOUS. HOW DID YOUR WIFE REACT?

SHE LAUGHED,

YOU KNOW.

TELL ME, WHY WASN'T YOUR WIFE AT THE CLUB

THE NIGHT TERRY WAS MURDERED?

SHE WAS AT HOME.

SHE WASN'T.

WE HAVE SECURITY FOOTAGE

FROM THE GAS STATION AT YOUR CORNER.

IT SHOWS NORAH LAROCHELLE GETTING GAS

AT 12:10 A.M., THAT EVENING.

NOW, WHY WOULD SHE DO THAT

UNLESS SHE WAS COMING HOME FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE?

UNLESS SHE WENT OUT JUST AFTER MIDNIGHT

TO FILL THE TANK?

THAT. SHE DID THAT.

OR WAS SHE COMING BACK FROM TERRY YASBECK'S STUDIO?

SHE WASN'T.

YOUR WIFE RESENTED PHOEBE'S SUCCESS, DIDN'T SHE?

SHE HATED BEING A BACK-UP SINGER

JUST A FEW FEET FROM STARDOM.

SHE THOUGHT, WITH PHOEBE OUT OF THE WAY,

EVAN CARLTON WOULD MAKE HER A BIG STAR.

DIDN'T SHE?

IS THAT WHY SHE KILLED TERRY YASBECK?

OBJECTION!

NO, SHE DIDN'T!

I DID. I SHOT HIM.

IT'S A TRICK, YOU IDIOT!

SHUT UP!

ORDER!

[JONAH]: SHE KNOWS!

SHE KNOWS EVERYTHING!

I KNOW WHAT, JONAH?

THAT YOUR WIFE KILLED TERRY YASBECK,

AND YOU HELPED HER?

YES. NO!

I DID IT ALL BY MYSELF.

[NORAH]: NO, HE DIDN'T.

I DID IT.

HE DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT UNTIL AFTERWARDS.

[COURTROOM CHATTING]

YOUR HONOR, CAN WE TALK?

- YAY, CLAIRE! - CHEERS!

THANK YOU.

WELL, I DIDN'T LET YOU DOWN.

I KNEW YOU WOULDN'T.

THANK YOU.

YOU'RE SO WELCOME.

YOU'RE THE BEST.

SO, USING A RECORDING TO TIME-SHIFT THE MURDER,

SMEARING THE MIC STAND WITH BRAKE FLUID...

WHAT WOULD OCCAM THINK OF THAT?

I'D SAY...

HE'D PROBABLY THINK IT WAS PRETTY COMPLICATED,

BUT HE DID LIVE IN THE 14TH CENTURY.

MURDER WAS SIMPLER BACK THEN.

CLAIRE?

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

- THANK YOU. - OH, OF COURSE.

YOU ARE A MIRACLE WORKER.

I'M NOT.

I ACTUALLY THOUGHT YOU SUSPECTED ME FOR A MINUTE.

YEAH, I TOTALLY DID,

AND YOU KNOW, I STILL DON'T KNOW

HOW JONAH GOT PHOEBE'S ALBUM ON YOUR COMPUTER,

BUT THAT WAS BRILLIANT.

WHAT ABOUT THE ACCIDENT IN THE GARAGE?

STAGED TO DEFLECT ATTENTION FROM JONAH.

NORAH HIT HIM ON THE HEAD AND STARTED THE CAR.

OH, SWEET COUPLE.

AREN'T THEY?

HEY, WHERE'D YOUR BROTHER GO?

UM, HE'S SOMEWHERE AROUND HERE.

I'M NOT SURE.

OKAY.

THANK YOU!

[CLAIRE]: MOM?

GOOD JOB SETTLING THAT LEMONADE CASE.

YEAH, I CALL IT

THE WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS AFFAIR.

YEAH, OKAY, THAT SOUNDS GOOD.

WELL, ACTUALLY, MAYBE I'M STILL WORKING ON THAT.

OKAY...

AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO GO TO COURT.

THAT'S THE BEST WAY TO RESOLVE THINGS.

I'M PROUD OF YOU,

AND... I'VE BEEN THINKING,

AND I KNOW THAT WE HAVE OUR DIFFERENCES,

AND THERE ARE GOING TO BE CHALLENGES AHEAD,

BUT I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO OFFER YOU...

TO OFFER ME MORE CASES?

YEAH, I'D LIKE TO OFFER YOU SOME MORE CASES.

AND YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE ME A PARTNER?

ASSOCIATE.

WHAT IS WITH THE PARTNER?

OKAY, I CAN WAIT...

BUT NOT TOO LONG.

HUG.

AW.

AW, THANKS.

OKAY.

[LOUDLY CLEARING THROAT]

OH, AND...

GOOD JOB, EVERYBODY, GREAT.

GREAT.

GREAT WORK.

AH...

HOMAGE.

TO THE VICTOR GOES THE COFFEE.

THANK YOU.

- YOU'RE WELCOME. - WHERE'S YOURS?

WELL... YOU HAVE TO BUY ME ONE

BECAUSE YOU WON, BUT I WON, TOO.

WE BOTH WON, DIDN'T WE?

ALTHOUGH I WILL SAY, YOU KNOW...

YOU HAD FAITH, AND I DIDN'T, NOT SO MUCH.

YOU ALWAYS BELIEVED SHE WAS INNOCENT.

YEAH, NO, I DIDN'T THINK MY SISTER WAS A MURDERER.

SO HOW COULD WE LOSE?

YOU'RE... YOU'RE AMAZING.

SEE, I'M A D.A.

I DON'T THINK LIKE THAT.

WELL, MAYBE YOU SHOULD START.

MAYBE THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM.

MAYBE I SHOULD START. YOU'RE RIGHT.

SO, DINNER, SATURDAY NIGHT?

YEAH, LET'S DO IT, BUT NO SHOP TALK, RIGHT?

- NO SHOP TALK... - OKAY.

FOR TEN MINUTES,

AND THEN MAYBE SOME SHOP TALK.

TOO BAD WE DON'T HAVE GRAPE SODA.

YOU HAVE GRAPE SODA.

I HAVE GRAPE SODA.

WELL DONE, COUNSELOR.

LET'S CELEBRATE, COUNSELOR.

YOU READY, MOM?

YES, JUST A SEC.

WELL, COME ON, LET'S GO!

YOUR DAUGHTER'S ABOUT TO PITCH A PERFECT GAME.

DON'T JINX ME!

COACH SAYS

HE'S GOING TO LET ME PITCH FOR A FEW INNINGS,

YOU KNOW, JUST SEE HOW I DO.

THAT IS GREAT.

YOU'RE GOING TO GET NOTHING BUT STRIKE-OUTS.

MOM, DON'T YOU JINX ME, TOO!

SORRY, HONEY. WHAT DO YOU WANT US TO SAY?

JUST QUIET CONFIDENCE WITH NO EXPECTATIONS.

[JOANNA]: OKAY, HOW ABOUT...

YOU ARE GOING TO BE PERFECTLY ADEQUATE!

THAT'S BETTER.

GO ADEQUATE!

HEY, WE NEVER HAD OUR WEEKLY MEETING

THIS WEEK.

OH, I KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING GREAT ABOUT THIS WEEK.

ME FIRST.

UGH.

MY PLAN IS TO PITCH WELL IN TODAY'S GAME.

MY GOAL IS TO WRITE A GOOD PAPER FOR MY SOCIAL STUDIES CLASS,

AND MY ASPIRATION...

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT ME TRYING OUT

FOR THE VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM?

YOU'RE KIDDING, RIGHT?

I'M KIDDING.

SHE GETS THIS FROM YOU.

I HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE PROUD.
