All language subtitles for Matlock 01x14 Game Day [2025-03-06 21-01] uswcbs HQ

Previously, the law firm Jacobson Moore
hid documents that could have taken

opioids off the market ten years
earlier.

Think of how many lives that could have
saved, including our daughters.

My grandma loves these. It's biological.

Next thing I know, I'm standing smack
dab in the middle of a Costco with a

-pound bag.

Bitsy again?

I don't have the energy to talk to my
sister.

She's alive.

I'll sneak in.

Grabbed the printouts of Julian's
whereabouts the day the documents went

and proved he was the one who stole
them. Talk to me about slammed.

The class is certified.

Greatly plaintive. We start trial next
week. Sorority girl named Violet

a heart attack after someone spiked her
drink.

Slammed. Are you pressing charges
against Kennedy?

Considering it. Kennedy was trying to
hurt Zoe, which makes Violet's death an

accident, not a crime. Drop it. So you
can win your class action?

Yeah. And get this really bad product
off the market so that it doesn't happen

to another kid. That's my bear, and I'm
about to slay it. Product Accession

Counselor, feel we advanced her case?

Betsy? Oh, get in here and hug my neck.

And I was saying to Cindy Shapiro, she's
my big sister, and I'm going to go to

New York and see what the heck of duty
she's up to.

Don't look behind you. Pretend you're on
the phone.

What's going on, Shay?

There was a mistake.

A temp in Wilbrex's legal department
accidentally sent over 342 pages that

not supposed to be included.

Because they're outside of discovery?

The pages should not have been included.

I can't do anything illegal.

And I'm not asking you to. I'm just
telling you that if those documents are

scanned into your system, Wilbrex's
opioids are pulled from the market.

The company loses billions in revenue.

And you lose millions in fees.

I tried calling your father, but he's...
Australia until the end of the week.

Okay, enough with the parking garage.

This isn't all the president's men.

It doesn't matter. Wherever they met
back then.

The biggest problem is we don't know
what the document is. Well, thank you so

much. I wasn't sure.

Okay, you know what?

Don't get snippy with me because you're
annoyed with your sister.

What could she possibly be baking now?
Hasn't she already made everything?

Let's focus.

Okay. We have the timeline from Julian's
key card.

Yeah, we do.

And I have to figure out where he
actually went after he took the

what about motive?

Impressing his dad. The money, the
mysterious half million he used to buy

brownstone.

Conjecture, counselor?

Up, back in the hatches. Hurricane
Bitsy's making landfall.

You have two types of sage. Help me eat
out of that garden every night.

Oh, yeah, we do. We plop right down in
the dirt and pop tomatoes.

Well, you should. I always say...

The biggest trick the devil ever pulled
is called farm to table.

And I'll tell you what, I wish I was his
business partner.

Muffins? Oh, after I get home tonight,
as a reward.

Maddie has a big class action starting
today. Well, I'm sure your job's real

important if you decided to move cross
-country and uproot Alfie.

Well, as a matter of fact... It was
Alfie who inspired the move.

That's what he said.

But he clammed up tighter than an oyster
when it got to specifics.

Butterscotch. You know, I swore I'd
never eat him. But then I turned 60, and

there I was. At Costco with a five
-pound bag, yeah.

You told me that story.

Well, I can never tell if you're
listening or not.

Well, okay.

I'm off to liberate some wild peppermint
from your neighbor's yard.

She's here. Use it as research.

Remember, Maddie Matlock does not exist
without Bitsy. Maddie Matlock has

substance underneath.

My sister is a grown woman named
Elizabeth who likes to be called Itsy

will keep her occupied.

And away from my office if Bitsy figures
out what we're up to.

She can't keep a secret in my hometown.
It's fueled by deep fried Twinkies and

gossip. I've got your sister.

I will also make sure the door to the
office is closed.

Lock it. Done. You just figure out where
Julian went once he had the document.

On it.

And did one of you... make copies. I got
it right there. Increase profit, push

the marketing page. Okay, everyone
breathe.

Oh, it's game day, and you have
everything riding on this case. Two

of work, millions in sunk costs, our
partner race. Thank you for that.

Good luck with your jury selection.

Are you really rooting for me?

Three -part answer. As a human being,
yes. As your competitor in the partner

race, no. But as the person who's going
to win said partner race. Okay, I get

it. You always hit a joke too hard.

Everything okay?

Just a fly that needs swatting.

What's going on, Shay?

Did you hire the Glenroys to do your
jury work on Flint? Elijah's

recommendation. He worked with them
years ago. I'm the in -house jury

consultant, Olympia.

This makes me look bad.

That sounds like a you problem.

This is an important case, and I needed
a new dynamic.

Plus, there's two of them.

You feel for the husband -wife schtick?

I believe they're siblings.

Look, Olympia. Hmm? Can we just clear
the air about what happened?

You mean with my husband?

I've had enough people hand me their
guilt.

You can keep yours.

Today is about my client.

I gotta admit, I got serious game day
nerves.

Worse than my football days. I get it.
This is two years of your life. But

you're in such a great place now,
Tucker. Which we need you to hide.

You are the face of this lawsuit, and
court is theater. Curtain goes up when

jury selection begins.

Your pain needs to stand in for the
entire class. That's why you're the

plaintiff. So even if something's
hilarious, no laughing.

Small smiles are fine. Which is why I
specifically said no laughing, not no

smiles. I'm getting brothers, sister.
I'm getting married, but I'm happy.

I'm getting exhausted.

We need to reject anyone who leans
libertarian from our panel. Anyone who

blame the person over the product.

We'd like to dismiss juror number nine.

Subgroups to dismiss, including anti
-vaxxers, end -of -day preppers, anyone

liking social media posts with the word
militia. We'd like to dismiss her. Yes.

And anyone who's ever been sued, either
at work or at home. We'd like to dismiss

juror 23, and thank you so much for your
service.

We'll be researching as you go.
Remember, one bad juror can poison the

well. My last challenge.

Get rid of 31.

Agreed. 32 looks good. College -age
daughter?

Down for it.

Yes, we'd like to dismiss 31.

All right.

Juror 31, you may go. And since both
parties are out of challenges, I will

juror 32.

Congratulations on completing jury
selection.

We will begin opening statements after
lunch.

Has she been there the whole time? The
whole time.

Minty assigned me for today.

Keep her away from me.

And I get that there are two of them,
but now do you understand why Olympia

needs to talk to me?

Sarah, come on. This is beyond... You're
wearing earbuds?

You are persuasive, and I am
susceptible. So I am listening to Pride

Prejudice, and like Elizabeth Bennett, I
am holding my ground. You are not to

approach Olympia. End of story. This
is...

Maddie!

I need your help.

Ironic. Unfortunate. Look, I know we've
had our issues, but... Will you please

put that phone down and listen to me for
one minute? It's about Olympia's class

action.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, you
are about to see how Slammed engaged in

methodical, multi -million dollar
marketing campaign. And yes, part of

marketing campaign included promotional
events.

But their influencers were given a
safety speech for a site word for word.

One that required consumers to be over
21 and to drink responsibly. But they

didn't want you to drink responsibly
because they had flavors called blasted

blueberry and wasted watermelon.

Yes, my client leaned into the fun. Yes,
they used social media.

But again, they targeted people like my
client.

Tucker Hoff went to Alabama on a
football scholarship.

Drank slam one night his freshman year
of college.

Blacked out. Next thing he knows...

He's jumping out of a moving car. And
now he can't walk.

Yes. And that is terrible.

Yes. But we have sold millions of cans
of slammed. And we've only had one

jump out of a moving car.

Because it's not the can. It's the
consumer.

Tucker Haas made a series of bad
choices.

And his choices.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, we're
taken away because of how quickly SLAM

worked and how dangerous it is.

SLAM is a perfectly safe beverage.

Any misuse or abuse is the sole
responsibility of the person, not the

Thank you, Your Honor.

Ready to call your first witness, Ms.
Lawrence.

We're going to need a minute.

Oh, sorry.

What's going on?

Shea found something that Hayden and
Allie missed.

Jura 32 had a blog written under a
pseudonym.

It's problematic.

How problematic?

The kind of problematic that could sink
our whole case.

Ms. Lawrence cannot seriously be asking
to remove a juror after opening

statements. I can if he misrepresented
himself.

Dozens of posts from a libertarian
Reddit board. Two specifically citing a

litigious society where people won't
take responsibility for their own

stupidity. You really think he had a
nefarious plan to infiltrate our jury so

that your client wouldn't get a
settlement?

Despite not knowing ahead of time what
the case was about? No, but once he

out what it was about, he lied to get on
the jury.

Let's talk to juror 32.

You can't alienate him in case the judge
decides to keep him off the jury.

I know.

Just ride the line. Keep your eyes on
the judge. Okay.

I made those posts pre -COVID.

Then my cousin died during the pandemic.
Changed my whole point of view.

Got it.

Although your post stopped a week after
you were fired, so I'm just checking to

make sure you didn't stop posting in
case your opinion clashed with a future

employer. No. Like I said, change my
views. Happens a lot.

I used to love Nickelback. Now they make
my ears bleed.

I was totally honest on my
questionnaire.

I promise.

I'm prepared to proceed unless you have
further questions, Ms. Lawrence.

No further questions, Your Honor.

I cannot believe I'm stuck with a lying
libertarian on my jewelry.

I'm hoping Pastrami can make up for
Allie and Hayden.

I'm sorry.

They came through for me in my old firm.

My fault, too. I should have just gone
with Shea.

We'll have to figure this out over
Pastrami.

We? The best way to make it up to me is
to be part of the solution.

I can't lose this, Elijah.

I've got over a thousand plaintiffs
counting on me, and now my job is on the

line, too.

Be my second chair.

Jury 32's blog contains a lot of ideas
about men's rights, too.

Having you next to me can't hurt.

Oh, that smile means you're in?

Did I withdraw you?

No. That's the tenth text today that's
made you giggle.

I don't giggle. Heard the gig and the
eagle, and I know it's not about the

Just a buddy of mine.

I'd believe you if you had buddies. Just
tell me who she is already.

No, thanks, but if you're dying to talk
affairs of the heart, I'm happy to talk

about you and Kira.

Just going with the flow to see if I
might be open to being open.

Might is doing a lot of heavy lifting in
that answer.

I can't quit Carrie yet. In addition to
excellent kissing, she gives me the

scoop on complex webs of power and
hierarchy enforced through corporate

architecture. What are you talking
about?

A new single office is opening up. Not
just any office.

Olympia's first one at the firm.

It's mentor -mentee fate. That office is
mine. And I am the only one who knows

about it. So please tell me that's
not... You have a patient for the

Mrs. Delphin told me about it. Also
fate, I guess.

Fine. Then we'll both go for it. But we
can't breathe a word of it to anyone

else. Otherwise... We'll be fighting off
every associate here, Deal. Mm -hmm.

Where are you going?

To run a quick errand before the break's
over.

I can't find the cream of tartar in your
pantry.

That is not an emergency.

No, but without it, my baked Alaska is
going to wind up looking more like a

baked Arizona. Look, I'm at work right
now. You know what? I've got your ear,

your spice drawer has rosemary where the
time should be, and... I've got to go.

Why are you whispering?

You're a spy now?

Is everything okay?

Yeah, just Alfie. Oh, still not feeling
right.

Yeah, he's got an upset tummy. He's
going to take the bus home.

Don't be ridiculous. Send a company car
for him. Oh, no, I couldn't. You could,

and you should. That's why we have the
cars.

I told you.

You're important here, Maddie.

Email him as we speak. Good.

That was close.

We just have the fun of being in a
secret office relationship.

No? Well, Simone, my last relationship
started when I was 16, so I had to keep

it secret from my PE teacher.

Okay, the most important thing is not to
tell Sarah.

She'll try to get in between us. No, she
wouldn't.

Okay, she would, but I won't let her.

Well, you wouldn't be able to stop it.

It's like your jury. One person can
poison the well.

And she's your office mate.

Maybe not for long.

I'm working up a new profile on 32.

Okay, in the meantime, give me ideas. We
need his sympathy.

What if we put Kennedy on the stand?

The girl who poured slams in a cup and
killed a sorority sister?

Don't know that she's giving us
sympathy.

No, she's giving us the fact that she
used the product as intended and killed

someone because it's inherently
dangerous.

True. And she'd never have brought it
into the sorority if it was properly

labeled. I mean, she knew Violet had a
heart condition.

Yeah, plus, Jero 32 does have a college
-aged daughter.

He might connect to Kennedy.

Did the ADA drop the case against her?
Not yet, but that's not going anywhere.

Call Kennedy, see if she'll talk to us.

We'll keep laying the foundation in
court.

Dr. Wells, as a biophysicist, what sets
Slammed apart from other canned

alcoholic beverages?

Well, for starters, it contains five
times the alcohol of similar products in

addition to caffeine.

And what does that combination do to the
human body?

Accelerates inebriation while the
caffeine decreases the body's ability to

metabolize and recover.

And why is that so dangerous?

A person's body won't be able to feel
the usual warning signs associated with

excessive drinking until it's way too
late.

Can you read the label for me, please?

Five shots in one.

And can you turn the can for me? What
does it say there in neon yellow?

Warning, this contains caffeine.

Which feels pretty clear. It is.

But it doesn't say how much. It doesn't
have to. The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and

Trade Bureau only requires companies to
state if a beverage contains caffeine,

not how much it contains.

And Mr. Laporta, as head of compliance
at SLAM, do you follow the letter of the

law? Absolutely. Our entire goal is to
ensure safety for the people who drink

our beverages.

So why don't you list how much
caffeine's in it? We considered it, but

show people don't read if there's too
much fine print. We wanted people to

on how much alcohol there was, so they
didn't get too drunk.

So you weren't hiding something.

Of course not. Look, we don't know how
much vitamin C is in it either, but

never been dragged to court over it.

My jaw is eating this up. Don't worry.

We're working on a witness who could
help.

Olympia, Kennedy and her parents are
coming in in the morning, but she won't

testify unless she has complete immunity
for all future charges. Call me back.

to find out, kid.

Okay. I got the documents.

What now?

You get rid of them.

Forever.

Our reading room?

No. Yes.

That's where he went.

So the document is gone for good? It
seems that way.

Well, now what?

Not sure yet. I'm just going to go stare
at my board and pray for inspiration to

it. Are you sure you're not avoiding
your sister?

Well, okay. Maybe it is two birds with
one stone.

Madeline, what on the GD's good earth is
going on here?

Now you know what's going on.

I'd like to ask you to remain calm.

I'm calm.

And I'd calmly like to tell you that
this is worse than when I walked into

Bert's man cave and found the puppy
scam.

Do not compare me to your ex -husband. I
knew that he didn't have a crate full

of Havanese puppies. And he knew he
didn't have a crate full of Havanese

puppies. And there he was.

promising everyone Havanese puppies.
Because Brooke was a psychopath.

He was a psychopath?

Hold on here.

Oh, it's Cindy Shapiro.

You cannot tell her anything.

Uh, no, because this is a crime, and you
could go to jail.

Nobody's going to jail. I'm putting
together evidence, and when I have

send it to the New York Times and let
them take it from there.

And if you get caught before then?

Nope. Nobody's going to press charges
against a little old lady. It's a little

old con man, and you are no better than
Bert.

Don't take the bait. Don't take the
bait.

Bert took innocent people's money and
slept with call girls.

I'm trying to right a wrong.

A web of lies is a web of lies, and
someone's going to get caught in the

of it, and my guess is Alfie. This
happens to be important to Alfie. He's

kid. He didn't get to choose. And you
don't get to weigh in on my family.

So don't go there again.

I made a mistake. A mistake? It's
forgetting your keys.

I didn't know where my little girl was
for a week.

Ellie was safe. She told me not to call.

She said she just wanted to regroup
after rehab.

Yeah, well, kids don't get to choose,
like you said.

She was 19.

I did my very best to help Madeline.

I loved her too.

And none of this, none of this is going
to bring Ellie back.

I know that.

But the people responsible have to
answer for it.

Until you know what it feels like to
bury a child.

I don't need your opinion.

Yikes. If I'd have known you were
coming, I would have tidied up, put out

snacks. No snacks needed. I won't be
long.

I just came because... You need Kennedy
on the stand in your class action, but

she won't come out of the shadows until
it's safe, meaning I stop sniffing

around with charges.

Exactly.

I get it. I do. And as much as I'd love
to help you... Oh, come on. You have,

what, 73 cases?

Good memory.

It's 84 now.

Make it 83.

This is not worth your time.

I'll owe you one.

You know the difference between a favor
and a debt?

A favor is just some vague, open -ended
obligation that most people never make

good on.

A debt can be precisely calculated.

It demands equivalence.

And I'm loving your deep thought, but
what does this have to do with my case?

My office owes a debt to Lydia Reed,
whose campaign contributions fill its

coffers.

Lydia Reed is insisting that you
prosecute Kennedy?

Her daughter is dead because Kennedy
gave her that drink.

She wants someone to pay.

Wait, who is Lydia Reed?

Violet's mom, and she owns half the real
estate in New York, lots of political

power. Speaking of politics, a new
application was submitted for that empty

office, according to Kira.

Yeah? Yeah.

Simone applied.

Weird. OMG, you were the worst liar. You
obviously told her. Me?

I saw you guys coming out of a closet,
Billy. Fine.

We're seeing each other.

Duh. Why did you keep it from me?
Because you both don't like each other

didn't want you to poison the well.

Impossible. It's already full of toxic
sludge. Okay, Sarah.

Sorry, I just think that you deserve
someone who doesn't try to steal an

out from under you. Right, Maddie?

Who's taking what office now?

Olympia's very first office opened up.

It's small, on a floor that hasn't been
renovated, but...

It's got a window.

Renovated.

Yeah, floors 21 through 24 got a remodel
about five years ago.

Seven.

Hey, you don't even know the history of
Jacobson Moore.

I deserve it. Right, Maddie? Mm -hmm.

Trust me, Olympia would want me to have
her old office. Trust me, Olympia

doesn't care about her old office.

The ADA will drop the charges if Lydia
Reed backs off.

Why don't you go talk to Lydia?

And we'll go talk to Kennedy.

I want to help. I never meant for any of
this to happen.

What did you want, Kennedy?

For Zoe to get really drunk and
embarrass herself. I had no idea that

kill someone.

Do you remember the first time you heard
about the drink?

It's okay.

Just tell the truth.

Senior year of high school, I got an
invite to a party over Snapchat at a

warehouse, and they were handing out
free cans.

At a high school party?

They didn't specifically say high
school, but a bunch of us went. It was

fun, but they took our phones.

Who did? Like party promoter types.

We were all hooked. Hooked as in?

Well, five and one means five times
cheaper, five times faster. They kept

that. She's giving us brand loyalty,
targeting minors. But she's not

unless... The DA drops the charges, I
know. We're working on that.

You have a gorgeous home, Mrs. Reed.

I used to think so.

Now it's just filled with ghosts.

The place Violet did her homework, the
piano she played.

Gives me absolutely no pleasure to tell
you I'm also a member of the worst club

on Earth.

I'm sorry.

I pressured Violet into joining the
sorority.

Can't blame yourself.

I can't not.

My Chi Sigma Pi sisters were my lifelong
friends.

One of Pilots killed her.

And I know you're angry with Kennedy,
but she's not the responsible party.

And if you could tell the DA... No,
stop.

You do not get to tell me who to hold
responsible or how to grieve. My

would be alive if not for Kennedy. I
know, and... And nothing if it were your

child. Wouldn't you want someone held
responsible?

Not a drink. A person who made a
decision.

Exactly.

You need to leave.

Any luck?

Is that girl Kennedy testifying? What,
her charges dropped?

Unfortunately, no.

But... That's okay.

Tucker, we chose you as our named
plaintiff because of your story.

You just have to tell it. Though, 10 %
differently to appeal to a libertarian.

Not a big deal. Just got to keep Jura 32
in mind. Exactly.

Take a little bit more personal
responsibility.

I thought the whole argument was it's
the product, not the person.

And it still is. But now, shade it
slightly differently.

I wanted to get drunk, but also still be
able to make choices.

Because I believe in choices.

Come on. Someone must have snuck a phone
into the party.

Agreed. We'll find it.

So did you choose self -respect and end
things with Simone?

I did, actually. You were right. Her
snake in the office, big red flag.

Hmm. I'm glad you came to your senses.

Me too. Your turn. Nope. Oh, come on,
Sarah.

You have to shut down this whole open
relationship thing. You're going to hate

it, and I'm not sure your therapist has
the capacity to manage the mental

fallout. Dr. Shaw can handle more than
you'd expect.

Heading to court. Any progress finding
the party?

No, and we tried to track down details
about it. Who sent out the invites? Who

rented the venue? Did someone pull a
permit? But it was all a dead end.

Everything was paid for in cash.

Whoever threw this party was very
careful with leaving no fingerprints.

That just means they're definitely
hiding something. Keep looking. We need

evidence that they threw parties with
minors and hid it. Juror 32 won't be

to deny that.

Tucker. Were you trying to get drunk the
night of the accident?

Yes, I was. And I take full
responsibility for that. Was your goal

blackout drunk?

Absolutely not.

I wanted to have fun and I wanted to be
able to make choices.

And is that what happened?

No. Can you tell us what happened that
night?

No, I can't because I still don't
remember it.

I know that the day before I was the
first in my family to go to college.

The day before I was on a football
scholarship.

And the day after that, I woke up in the
hospital.

I couldn't walk.

I was told I jumped out of a moving car.

Thank you.

Let's talk about your party days.

You used to go pretty hard, right?

I did.

But I was an athlete, so never so hard
that I couldn't get up and go to

the next day.

That a boy.

And what about if you didn't have
practice? Like, the night you won All

You mean my junior year in high school?

You know what this is about?

No. And I do not like it. Yeah, your
junior year. Do you remember what you

yelled to your teammates after you won?

Objection. Hearsay.

Withdrawn. Don't need your actual words.
Just tell us about your attitude

towards getting drunk that night. Do you
remember?

Not really. That was like six years ago.

No problem.

Your Honor, since the witness can't
recall, hearsay can be admitted in the

of recorded recollection.

And I happen to have one right here.

You did what you could on redirect.

But it wasn't good enough.

Especially not for number 32. Please
tell me you found something. We found

start of something.

Three pictures of this rager that a few
of Kennedy's friends were at. And if you

blow up the images, those are Kansas
slammed.

Before it hit the market when it was
still in R &D. Slam lifted tons of

they threw in their discovery, but not
this one. They're definitely hiding

something. Marketing to underage kids,
clearly.

Exactly. Build brand loyalty when
they're young. Make Slam the drink of

campuses. Problem is, we're out of time.

Well, then I go to the judge. Convince
him those social media posts lay the

foundation to bring in the kids who were
at the party. Tough sell with no link

between the parties and Slam. Because
Slam is hiding evidence.

Hiding evidence is the epitome of evil.

We can't let him get away with it.

You're right.

I'm calling the judge.

Peace, Alfred?

We're just working.

Do you care about this case? For real?
Not just another ruse?

Well, a girl died.

For real.

It's a terrible product. It's dangerous.

Got it.

Well, I should have called you. I just

wanted for Ellie to have a little time
after rehab.

The fact that you're still justifying
this, having absolutely no experience

addiction. No experience?

We had the same mom, remember?

She got sober when you were five years
old.

Trust me, you missed the bad run.

Oh, sure.

If that's the story you'd like to tell
yourself.

That's what happened.

I told Mom to quit drinking or I'd take
you to college with me.

So she quit drinking. Well, that's true.

But then you still left.

And Mom didn't deal with anything. She
just baked and ate. That was her new

addiction and me, why I didn't go to
Georgia State.

You... You applied to Georgia State?

Yeah. Came home one day and found Mom
staring at my acceptance letter crying.

Well, if I'd known, I would have made
you go.

Oh, no.

You were busy, out of life, doing big,
important things, making it rain.

I had the info. I...

I made a choice.

My point is that we all deal with pain
differently. Mom with booze and Ellie

with drugs and you with this thing.

It's not the same at all. Do you think
about it every day?

Lie in order to do it?

Sacrifice relationships?

The thing is, you've got to feel pain
because eventually the distractions stop

working. They either wear out or you do.

Bad news?

Yeah, we lost the hearing.

We've got this great new evidence and
the judge won't let it in.

when Cindy Shapiro missed the deadline
for the county fair pie baking contest,

and they wouldn't let her in, and she
went to every important person in town,

from the mayor to the pimp, and no one
could do anything or would do anything.

It's all the same. So, how did she get
it in? Because I'm open to suggestions.

Well, unfortunately, she didn't. I mean,
a deadline is a deadline.

Sandy Coots won with a pie crust that
was so soggy it was like chewing on a

sponge. Well, here's what Cindy did.

She dropped off a pie at the local
newspaper reporter's house because she

believed in it. And the next week, her
pie was on the cover of the paper. And

this day, you ask anybody, and they
would say, Cindy won that contest.

So...

Deliver the pie elsewhere.

Deliver the pie elsewhere.

You're pretty smart, you know that itsy
bitsy?

Well, I've been trying to tell you that
for years.

We just filmed this video.

There's hard evidence that this alcohol
company was preying on high schoolers.

I'm not saying don't blame anybody.

I'm saying blame the right people.

Kennedy brought that drink in. Because
this company targeted her since high

school.

They marketed to minors, and then they
hid the evidence, which is criminal.

But your case is civil.

Because money will shut them down, force
them to take this product off the

market.

So no other mothers join our club.

I know what it's like to want justice.

Trust me, I want it too, more than
anything.

So help us.

And after, let's get the DA to press
charges against the real criminals, the

ones wearing suits who don't even see
our kids. They just see the bottom line.

So she's dropping the charges? She's
mad, she's motivated, and she's raring

help us figure out who lied at that
company.

Great. Okay, first step, we get Kennedy
on the stand.

And then... Good news.

We found out one of the unsanctioned
slam parties was broken up by the police

Connecticut. But Billy's sister is going
to try to hook us up with a local PD to

get more intel. We just need a little
more time to get the contacts.

Excellent. You two keep working that
lead.

I swear they're hiding something. And if
we can get it admitted into court, this

could be the nail in the slammed coffin.

What's up, Maddie?

Yeah, I'm just thrilled about these
developments, and my grandson's better.

Good.

Hey, everything go okay with Alfie in
the car?

Because you know you can use it any
time. He loved it. I'm afraid he's never

going to ride the bus again. Thank you
very much.

Let's call Kennedy into prep.

Unfortunately, that won't be necessary.

Tucker's settling for $100 ,000.

No, I'll call him. We'll convince him
not to take it. I just spent an hour

him. He was spooked after his testimony.
He's out.

But no talker means no named plaintiff,
which means... Our class action is

screwed. Okay, what's your next move?

I'll go.

How'd you know I'd be in my old office?

Oh, I think I know you pretty well by
now.

Plus, I looked at six other places
first.

As always, appreciate the honesty.

Scotch.

Two years of work down the drain.

The partner race.

It's not over. Trust me.

It's over.

For two years, I've been doing these pro
bono cases and I've been saying, wait

for Swamp.

Just wait for Swamp.

So?

You regroup.

There's no regrouping. Julian gets
partner.

I leave.

But wherever I end up, you're my first
hire.

If you want to come with, of course.

What?

Oh, it's just embarrassing.

My bladder hurts. When you turn 76,
every liquid heads for the exit.

But... Don't you move.

Because when I come back, we're going to
figure this out, and we're going to

make a plan.

You got me?

Counselor, I wanted to show you
something in my amicus briefs.

Oh, I knew it. I knew you were still
seeing Simone. You left the post -it. Of

course I left the post -it note. I knew
you were lying to me. What the hell?

I thought you broke things off with
Simone.

Well, I thought about it, but then I
realized I didn't want to. Billy, she's

good for you. Yeah, well, neither is
Kira. But we're both a little hooked

now, aren't we?

Exactly. Yes.

So we just need to support each other.
If I complain about Simone, you agree.

I go back to Simone, you get amnesia.
And you'll do the same if I decide to

to consider trying to try being open
with Kira? Yes. Even though I think I'll

never work.

I'll support you.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Are you seriously texting Simone right
now? What? I'm already in here.

Okay, so before room 2197 was a
shredding room, it was a coffee bar. And

went to the bathroom again.

Room 2511.

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come
on.

I got the documents. No.

It can't be you.

It can be.

I don't understand. It was Julian's key
card. We lived together.

Must have switched key cards by
accident. Happened all the time. I don't

it. Why not? You've had Julian's for
days and no one's even noticed.

But nothing.

You've been telling yourself the wrong
story, Maddie. Look at the evidence.

Make sure you're blaming the right
person.

The Redditor said one of these three.

Senior, Julian, and me.

I'm the only one who would have been
spending time in the woman's bathroom.

Face it.

I hid the document that could have saved
your daughter's life.

Want more proof?

Check my old office.

See if the person who stole the document
ended at room 2523.

Maddie, is that you?

Yeah.

Hey.

So tell me your plan.

What's next?
