REPORTER: The island nation of Córdoba
is still reeling this morning

after damage caused by
Category 5 Hurricane Jasper.

They also now face a graver
threat... armed acts of piracy.

According to U.S. officials,

island resident Arturo Marquez

was armed with automatic weapons

when he boarded a relief ship

and forcibly removed thousands
of pounds of supplies.

Marquez is now in custody
with the United States Marines.

Marquez...
Is he in the Southern District?

I can't comment on that.

I want it.

I can comment on that. No.

I do have something for you, though.

Just came in.

Assault? Roger...

Not just any assault.

This guy and others like him

are creating a real problem in this city,

and it's time to
put the federal foot down.

And it's not just any opposing counsel.

It's someone you will
enjoy going up against.

So, take a closer look

before you start flicking
your applesauce in my face.

[CHUCKLES]

Oh.

Right.

Your Honor, Mr. Morris is being charged

with a single count under 18 USC 113...

assault on federal land.

As alleged in the complaint,
Mr. Morris dove...

uh, "flew", his words...

and tackled an unarmed tourist

at the African Burial Ground
National Monument.

I'm sorry... I keep referring to
him as Mr. Morris.

Would the defendant prefer
"Captain Shadow," Ms. Bell?

Captain Shadow.

Captain Shadow.

Very well, Captain.

Your Honor, Mr. Shadow...

my client had a good-faith belief

that he was stopping a kidnapping.

The victim was chasing after his toddler.

Yeah, I... I don't... I didn't...

JUDGE ENGEL: Do you understand
the charges, Mr. Morris?

Yes, Your Honor.

And how do you plead?

Not guilty, Your Honor.

I'll release Mr. Morris on a $5,000 bond.

Normal restrictions,

but I'll add an additional requirement

of an 8:00 p.m. curfew.

Crime spikes in the city around 10:00.

I really need to be out there.

The curfew is fine, Your Honor.

We'll also need the costume...
as evidence.

"Costume"?

JUDGE ENGEL: Defendant will
surrender the costume.

We're in recess.

Does this look like a costume to you?

It's not Halloween.

I do not like that guy.

Director Fury.

Mm. Is that the joke
they programmed into you?

I thought I'd enjoy this more.

Come by my office. Let's work out a deal.

You can come to me.

I could, but I'm not going to.

Like your client, the Eagle does not fly.

You live with Sandra, right?

She's a little tidier at home.

She actually lives out of a bag.

A go-bag. I had one of those
when I was married.

Used it.

You saw the news this morning?

I don't have Internet.

There are papers.

The big, floppy things with the...

No.

Arturo Marquez.

The United States Marines
took him into custody in Córdoba

and brought him to New York.

There was some question about

whether he was gonna be held
as an enemy combatant,

but the U.S. Attorney
just unsealed an indictment.

He's being charged with piracy.

That's a real thing? Piracy?

It's a thing for which
the sentence is life in prison.

Very real.

Are you giving it to me?

- Do you want it?
- Of course.

You've handled your cases
incredibly well, Allison.

All of them. But this is different.

This is of a different magnitude.

I understand.

I'm not sure you do.

Why am I in New York?

The United States government

For removing the supplies from the ship?

Yes.

That ship was sitting
outside of port for days.

Why was it sitting there?

The hurricane had passed.

There were people dying everywhere.

I had to do something.

We went out to the ship once.
They wouldn't talk to us.

There's nothing not to like
about Arturo Marquez.

There's nothing to like
about Leonard Knox.

You would do better with this.

You would do better with this.

- That's not right.
- No.

[SIGHS] I have to face Leonard.

I want to face Leonard.

I can defend Arturo Marquez.

You can do anything. You are undefeated.

I got beat in my first case by Leonard.

Jay got absolutely destroyed in his.

- Maybe it's too harsh.
- Maybe.

The point is, Allison,
it's your turn to lose.

Not my point.

Why is this case even here anyway?

In the Southern District of New York?

Marquez isn't from here.
The ship isn't from here.

The hurricane didn't hit here.

If there's a case,
it should be in Córdoba.

- You'll be fine.
- Still undefeated.

Before we set a trial date, Ms. Chavez,

when does the government
plan to produce discovery?

Your Honor, I think that's premature

since we intend to move to

dismiss the indictment altogether.

On what basis would I dismiss it?

Jurisdiction, Your Honor.

There wasn't a single
U.S. citizen on board that ship,

it wasn't flying a U.S. flag,

and the charitable organization
that sponsored it,

Pan American Relief, is based in Toronto.

There was no kidnapping
under 18 USC 1201,

no hostage-taking under 18 USC 1203.

U.S. law enforcement
has no interest here at all.

The whole world has
an interest here, Your Honor,

in ensuring the safety
and security of the high seas.

Córdoba is a sovereign nation
with its own judiciary.

The judicial infrastructure of
Córdoba has been decimated.

The United States is in
a unique position to respond.

If pirates are allowed to attack
relief ships without reprisal,

it will set a precedent

that will affect all nations
going forward

wherever humanitarian aid may be needed.

It's as simple as that.

Nothing about this case
is simple, Ms. Chavez.

But I do find the government's argument

on jurisdiction compelling.

Please move forward on discovery.

Let's set a trial date.

Can I get you anything?

You can get me out of here.

It doesn't have to be this way
between you and me.

We both clerked on the Supreme Court.

We're both attractive.

We're both next level.

In addition to everything gross
you just said,

you're the guy who
introduced himself to me

as "the guy you don't want
to go up against."

So this is how this is. Now say a number.

- Six months.
- Probation.

- That's not a number.
- Plus a $1,000 fine.

Three months, no fine.

The guy Freddie allegedly assaulted

doesn't have a scratch on him.

He has a broken collarbone.

I could've charged this
as aggravated assault.

I'm coming way down.

One month.

Three months.

I'll take it to my client.

Don't just take it. Sell it.

Because it won't get any better
than this for Freddie,

and you... you don't want to go
up against me in court again.

Anyway, the crappy bodega on Lexington

doesn't have real Eggos,
but I got fake ones,

so fake Eggos before your closing.

Aww.

You're gonna kill it today, Allison.

I thought this stuff only existed on TV.

It's a van with monitors and microphones.

We don't have an invisibility

I mean, we are working on it.

Still more exciting than
grinding out subpoenas all day.

Why do you think I skipped law school?

I think it's fun, too.

We should do it again sometime.

You mean another sting operation?

Or I could teach you how to shoot.

Oh, I know how to shoot.

You don't know how to shoot.

Get out of there!
I really hate soccer moms.

Unless... sorry,
was your mom a soccer mom?

She was probably a soccer mom.

I didn't play soccer.

And I didn't really have a mom, so no.

Pierce, take a few steps to your right.

WOMAN: Tom. Are you Tom?

That's our suspect?

[WHISPERS] She's a middle-aged mom.

Thanks for agreeing to discuss
this, uh, special project.

Name's Kevin. Might as well be Satan.

Humiliates her
in front of all his friends,

takes drugs,
cheats on her left and right.

She can't get away from him.

I want you to get her away from him.

PIERCE: We can do that.

Do we move on her?

She hasn't given an order.

Hasn't turned over the payment, either.

We need to move.

She's trying to protect her daughter.

Not a reason to kill him.

I want his scalp.

I literally want his scalp.

I want you to cut off his head

and put it in a box
and deliver it to my doorstep.

- Okay, let's go.
- Yep.

Show me your hands. You're under arrest.

13 witnesses... 13... who will testify

that you aggressively tackled
Devon Saperstein,

breaking his collarbone,

as verified in Mr. Saperstein's
medical records.

We have independent

corroborating surveillance footage

and the interrogation tape... yours...

on which you admitted to an officer

that you attacked Mr. Saperstein,

"in the name of all that is just
and right in the universe."

I know all of this already.

[SIGHS]

I know you do.

Now I'm gonna tell you
something you don't know.

I know you don't know this
because I don't talk about it.

I didn't have many friends growing up.

I had forced play dates

with "suitable" children
set up by my mother,

but I spent a lot of time alone.

I loved Superman.

I mean, who doesn't love Superman,

but I...

I actually thought I was Superman.

One day, I decided to prove to
everyone what I already knew...

that I could fly.

I went to the roof of my school,

tied my cape around my neck,

and I jumped.

And broke both ankles.

[CHUCKLES] Shattered my left leg.

I couldn't fly.

I am not Superman.

The towel I tied around my neck
was not a cape.

It was just a towel.

I want you to have that back.

But I want you to know

You have no choice.

[WATER TURNS OFF]

[WIPING HANDS]

A few years ago,

I deposed an Army bomb-disposal expert,

four tours of Iraq
and Afghanistan under his belt.

He told me that
the top-tier guys in his field

are so sure of themselves,

when they walk toward explosives,

their heart rate actually goes down.

Well, that's not
happening to me right now.

But I'm not disposing of a bomb.

I'm throwing one.

When the storm came,

Arturo Marquez
was on the floor of his home

on the small nutmeg farm he worked

and that his father had worked,

and that his father's father had worked.

He was told to stay inside.

It didn't matter.

Inside soon became outside.

The world was turned upside-down.

His home was destroyed.

His farm, his family, his life.

In the face of a calamity

none of us could probably ever imagine,

Arturo didn't fold.

He didn't run. He didn't riot.

He got up off of that floor,
and he went to work.

He tried to help
in the only way he knew how.

Was he right to take
those supplies from that ship?

Was he right to sell them?

We could debate those choices,

but Arturo didn't have
the luxury of time.

He had to act.

And now it's your turn to act.

To make a difficult choice.

I don't know any of you.

And you obviously don't know me.

I'm sure we come from different places,

many of us, different means,
different experiences,

but we're here now,

and we are all privileged to be here.

I do know that.

Not just here in New York,

in the fortunate lives
that most of us lead.

Right here, right now, in this courtroom.

Because you have the privilege...

and it is a privilege...

to show Arturo Marquez

why the American criminal justice system

is the greatest in the world.

He wonders about this, rightly.

He's here because
he was taken at gunpoint,

chained in the hull of a ship,

and forced to travel 2,111 miles
to a country he's never been to,

charged with a crime most of us
have never even heard of.

This is what he knows about America.

But you know more than that.

You know America is good
and decent and compassionate,

that we are brave,

and in times of trial,
we do the right thing.

I am asking you to do the right thing.

Show Arturo the best of America.

Send him home.

A plea of guilty has been entered

in the matter of United States
versus Freddie Morris.

Mr. Morris, you have one week
to get your affairs in order.

Then you will begin
your sentence of 30 days.

- You're impressed.
- I was impressed.

I was standing there in court

thinking how I was wrong about you,

that you actually had a soul,

could look another human
in the eye and relate to them.

And it scared me because I was like,

"Wow. This guy could be

the second-best lawyer in this building,

and I'm gonna have to
go up against him for decades."

Why are you speaking in the past tense?

Because you're exactly
who I thought you were.

You never jumped off a building
pretending to be Superman.

Can't stand Superman. I'm a Marvel guy.

You never broke your ankles.

Would I look this good if I had?

You're disgusting.

Maybe, but I'm also
undefeated against you.

Don't be so self-righteous.

I did what had to be done so we
both could get what we wanted.

You should be thanking me.

[LAUGHS] I will never.

- Until next time.
- Can't wait.

Well, we did it.

You did it.

Okay, we did it.

We did it.

It was a pleasure.

All mine.
