Original subtitles

I'm Madeline Matlock. I'm a lawyer, like the old TV show.

Maddie, the judge ruled in our favor. You're incredible.

Most of what you know about me is based in truth, but it's also a lie. Good

evening, Mrs. Kingston.

Grammy! Oh, Alfie.

Who the hell are you? You looked at my picture every morning and then came to

work and smiled to my face. You don't trust me? Do you trust me? Look at the

evidence. Your ex -husband, Julian, hid documents that could have saved lives,

including my daughter's. You're out of your damn mind. Why are you hiding or

missing Paul Burke's study about opioids? My dad told me to get rid of

study. Please, let's shred it.

Alfie found me somehow.

I think I'm his father.

Come in.

I suppose we should start at the beginning.

Your name?

Joey. Joseph Danza.

He's a cute kid, Alfie.

Looks a little like my pops.

Is he here?

No, he's not.

Forgive me, but you didn't reach out to a guardian before establishing contact

with a 14 -year -old, Mr. Danza, so it's best to proceed with caution.

You know, you have to understand, until a couple days ago, I had no idea I had a

kid. So it wasn't you who sent an email after Ellie's funeral?

Oh, because I wanted to give you this.

Ellie left it with me when I last saw her.

Maybe Alfie would like it.

Why don't we sit down?

So, yeah, I met Ellie in 08.

I didn't know her name for the first few months. I just... Called her karaoke.

I'm clean now.

I should make that clear.

Glad to hear.

Since when?

2021.

We were in love.

That's my point.

She didn't tell you she was pregnant?

I was a mess back then.

How long were you together?

About two years.

Which takes us to 2010.

Ellie was pregnant in 2011.

Right, yeah, well, uh, I'm not great with dates.

Ellie's iPod.

You gave that to her, right?

After her swimming victory?

Or was it the injury?

I'll give it to Alfie.

But I do have to insist on a DNA test before I'm comfortable introducing you

my grandson.

I hope you understand.

Yeah, sure, no problem. We can make an appointment at a lab.

No need.

DNA only requires seven strands of hair with the follicular tissue attached.

Hey, who was that?

Alfie's father.

At least that's what he said.

We have to run a DNA test.

But he knew things.

Why were you late? You were supposed to come directly from the bank.

Well, I had to copy all of Julian's trust.

You'll see there was no payout from his father or Will Braxton.

I'm telling you, Maddie, Julian would never remove a document from Discovery,

much less one that could make a difference in the opioid crisis.

So, now we pivot to Senior, like you promised.

He obviously orchestrated it.

And I have a new lead.

Wait.

Where's your crime board?

Edwin wants us to send my evidence to the Times and let them take it from

He's done.

I thought I could give you a month. But now with this man showing up... And I

can't imagine what you're feeling, Maddie.

But it does not change the facts of the case. And the facts are you didn't find

a payout.

But that doesn't mean Julian didn't take the document.

All roads lead to him.

All roads are your circumstantial speculation.

Nothing that would hold up in court.

And, Maddie, you lose your one shot at Senior, who you know is behind it.

Remember how you found that email? The one senior sent from Australia that said

it's handled?

Well, I searched my archive emails, and a bunch of execs from Wilbrexer were

also there on vacation.

Did you know that? And when senior emailed me and Julian to tell us that he

going to Sydney to discuss a pre -trial settlement, he also said he was bringing

his cute new friend from the gym in case he had to suffer through dinner with

the wives.

I'll bet.

Mystery woman can tell us what really happened on that trip.

Who Senior met with, what they talked about. Hell, maybe she overheard the

when he gave the order.

That's a lot of maybes and a very long road.

Maddie, the minute this goes public, Senior will lawyer up and try to pin it

Julian. You know he will.

And there is no way that this does not hit me and my kids.

We are in the blast radius.

Please.

I know our friendship meant something to you.

If there's any hope for us to get it back.

You think that's possible?

I don't know.

If I had said yes, you'd know I was lying. We know each other too well.

Yes, we do.

But if there is a way back, it's this way.

The fastest DNA lab takes two days.

While you wait on the results, just give me a chance to find out this woman's

name, because I know how.

How?

What does that even mean?

That's not what we're talking about, darling.

I know.

Are you mad?

No. I just wish we'd known you were trying to find your father. It was all

Guardian stuff, and then I heard you guys talking about an old email, so I

looked it up and tracked it to a motorcycle club.

Do you think he's really my dad?

Well, we'll get the DNA results in two days, but Joey definitely knew your

mother.

This belonged to her.

What is it?

It's an iPod. It plays songs.

She took that everywhere she went.

Love music.

Sing karaoke.

How are you feeling, Elsie?

Like, I want to find the right charger for this.

Maybe on eBay.

You all right?

She's smart.

She's getting ahead of herself.

Joey used to call Ellie a karaoke.

Yeah, but you said he knew her.

Madeline, in two days when we get the DNA results, our entire life could

Another before and after.

And if that's happening, I would like to stay in the before times part as long

as I possibly can.

I understand.

Finished up in here.

Looks great.

Key can't be copied?

You're absolutely sure?

I'm sure.

We're staying in the before times, right?

You keep a -cleaning, I'll keep a -working.

What about Olympia? She'll keep a -trying to convince me to give her more

to tie the Missing Well Brexit document to Senior.

Madeline? I won't.

Dude, 49 years in, darling, you have to let me finish my sentences.

Are you finished?

Never, but have at it.

When we send our research to the time, you know your friendship is over, right?

Actually, I don't.

Our friendship is real and rare, and I'm not ready to throw it away.

I just have to figure out a way to get Olympia and her kids out of the blast

radius. That's all. And how are you going to do that?

Well, I've got a terrific plan.

Highly detailed. It's mastermind caliber.

So no idea?

Not yet, but I have two whole days to figure it out. Don't worry, Bill. We can

handle this.

Listen, I'll see you soon.

That's what happens when you throw a temper tantrum after getting passed over

for partner.

You quit, son.

Can't risk a security breach.

I had a plea deal on the books that was supposed to be resolved today, and I

just got a call that new evidence came in. So unless you want Bill Richards

furious with Jacobson Hoare... Hey, now, the perfect solution.

I was just trying to get some time on your calendar.

Partner business, yes.

In the meantime, do me a favor.

Take over Julian's case.

come out last night to celebrate my amazing victory in court.

I had to brag about myself, which I really hate doing, even though I'm

at it. Sorry.

Kalia and I were talking, and after I had to decompress.

Why?

What's going on?

I just need a little space, Sarah.

Got it. Thank you.

And while part of me wants to give you that space, the other part of me needs

you to know that I am here for you.

I do have to say it out loud to someone.

Thalia's pregnant.

Just checking.

It's yours?

Sorry, sorry.

And is she having the baby?

She's not sure yet, which means I'm just waiting to hear which way my life goes.

My team is getting up to speed.

I'm sorry this happened. It's not your fault.

But any decision about the other thing?

Someone else knows what you did, remember?

And we don't know who that other person is. We could need to check some more.

That's why we need to shred the document.

Do you want us both to go to jail? No, of course not.

I'll do it. While you're at work, just tell me where you're keeping it. Stop.

Because even though what you did makes me sick to my stomach, we have children

together. So I'm trying to protect you.

And that document is my only leverage.

I just want to help. Then go back to your client and make sure when I walk in

that room, they trust me.

Tell me, Maddie Matlock, how do you feel about the theater?

I love it, as long as I'm not in it and I don't have to watch it. Why?

We're taking a case of Julian's. His dad gave it to me to humiliate him. Senior

is the worst in every way.

Well, I know what you're trying to do. Is it working?

Not in the least.

So, are we still in a theater?

Because one time I saw a modern interpretation of As You Like It, and I

have a strong case for intentional infliction of emotional distress.

No, today we are representing Maya Richards, the 18 -year -old daughter of

hedge fund client. She and her best friend Georgia were arrested six months

after they broke into their high school theater and threw a party. We represent

both girls? No, Georgia's with Gibson Dunn. But the two law firms have been

working in concert, and two entities working together towards a common goal

exponentially more effective.

That land any better?

Not in the least.

So the girls threw a party in the theater. Big whoop.

Why does the state care? Because after they left, the theater went up in

Hundreds of thousands of dollars of smoke damage and the director's office

burned down.

Investigation concluded the fire started with a space heater left on. And the

judge was going to sign off on misdemeanor trespassing this morning.

longer than I usually like it.

A second fire report came in.

And the second report indicates that there was an accelerant called nitric

at the site of the fire. And unfortunately, the presence of

crime rises.

To felony arson. What?

We brought food, booze, little speakers, not nitric acid.

I know. And the good news is the original report found no evidence of

So I really think we can convince the ADA to honor the plea deal. But if not,

then what? Oh, my God.

We could get up to 25 years in prison.

That's not happening. We can still push this deal over the line. We just have to

stay the course.

Okay? Good.

Now, let's get to court.

Why isn't Georgia here yet? We drove the same way.

Well, they probably just hit a patch of traffic.

Apologies, Your Honor. I had to attend to some late -breaking developments.

I'm all ears.

Due to new evidence, the people moved to the Smith, the original charges, and to

file a superseding indictment against Maya Richards for arson in the third

degree. What?

Your Honor, we are here to finalize a plea. A plea that's off the table, given

the new evidence.

The people don't have new evidence. They have a new opinion.

The people have a new eyewitness, Ms. Richards' co -defendant, Georgia Brandt,

who found the courage to tell the truth about what happened that night. What?

Georgia will testify that Maya Richards had both the opportunity and the motive

to set their school theater on fire.

Georgia thinks I burned down the theater because I didn't get the lead in the

play. That's crazy.

Crazy or not, she came forward first, so she controls the narrative.

She said you were acting weird all week and disappeared during cleanup.

Georgia must have figured it was her or you. Well, then it was her.

It could have been.

She went back in after we left. What do you mean she went back in?

She forgot her cocaine.

What? I'm sorry. I didn't say anything before because I didn't want to get

Georgia in trouble. Maya, you need to go home and make a list of every bad thing

Georgia has ever done. If she's so much as littered, we need to know. From this

point on, she is not your friend. She is your adversary.

Got it?

We need to find a motive, even a whiff of one, and construct a new narrative

that pins this on Georgia. What do you say we interview that stage manager

fellow? His notes on that party are very detailed.

A high school kid took notes at a party?

What a hero.

I'm sure that's his nickname around campus.

It looks like these were written in hieroglyphics. Oh, that's theater speak.

Luckily, I have a friend who can translate.

Let me guess. Cindy Shapiro? Oh, don't be silly.

Everybody knows the only stage Cindy managed was in Vegas when she set front

center so she could tell those Chickendales boys exactly where she

Come on, kids.

Let's get to work.

Actually, Maddie, hang back a minute.

So. Roses or tulips, just got slightly more complicated.

Okay, so Senior sends women roses when he asks them out, tulips when he dumps

them, and, I guess, peonies when they shake the sheets.

Joke all you want, but I'm telling you, the easiest way to find Mystery Woman is

by looking up who Senior sent flowers to. I tried to get the info from Stuart,

but apparently Senior sends them himself, probably because he is a serial

cheater.

His Rolodex is on his desk.

You want to stand watch tomorrow?

As fun as that sounds, I'd like to propose another option.

Take control of the narrative yourself.

Go to the New York Times, with me or without, but bring my research and you

present it.

That's how we get you and the kids out of the blast radius. You're not the ex

-wife of a criminal.

You're a hero. I'm not implicating the father of my children. He implicated

himself.

This way you get ahead of the story.

You shape it. And senior gets off with no jail time.

Now, how is that justice?

It's not perfect.

That's where we are now.

And as soon as those DNA results come in, evidence is wrapped up. And I agree.

I have to focus on my family.

Please, just think about it.

We need to discredit this new arson report.

So, who's your theater expert?

Of course I'll help. You know how much I love the theater.

Thank you. Please, for the love of God, do not take him to jail. Do you remember

when I played Jacques in As You Like It? All the world to stage and all the men

and women merely players. Oh, God help me.

My performance was epic. My students talked about it with rapture. But it

couldn't have had anything to do with them wanting A's.

Okay, how did it go with Olivia?

Convince her to come around to our side?

I made my offer and she counted. Let me guess.

Focus on senior.

Yes, and the thing is, she's not entirely wrong.

You see what's happening here, don't you?

Oh, I'm just manipulating you.

No, she's not.

Are you sure?

You have a lot going on with Alfie and Joey.

Edwin, I'm fine.

I just need her to see my point of view.

Okay. I just want to make sure you don't see hers.

Yep, nitrogas, it is a banger.

No reason for it unless you're trying to burn something down.

Objection. Speculation. Sustained. Can you explain how you know that nitric

was used on this fire?

Well, burn patterns show mixed light and heavy floor scorching with well

-defined edges.

Classic signs of a nitric acid pour.

Any chance a common household item like metal polish could have accidentally

caused this fire?

No. That type of stuff only contains trace amounts.

The high concentration here proves intentional use.

It's the only credible conclusion.

Your witness, Ms. Lawrence.

If it's the only credible conclusion, why did the first investigator rule it

wasn't arson? Fire is a sneaky little mistress.

Loves you and leaves you. By which I mean, she obliterates the evidence.

Hard to figure out exactly what happened once she's gone.

Is that why arson forensics has been largely debunked in the last several

as junk science?

Traditional methods like the ones the first investigator employed limits

accuracy. But your methods don't. Nope. I use AI.

Same type FEMA uses. Trained on thousands of fire scenarios to detect

the human eye never could.

Takes the guesswork right out.

Leaves us with facts.

Facts led us to arson.

Did Claudia give you an answer?

No. She wants to meet tomorrow in person.

Okay. One more day.

How do you feel?

Excited to know how Valia feels.

So, Annie's inside?

Well, she is our theater expert.

Looks like wrangling cats at a mouse convention.

They're lucky you run such a tight ship.

Don't need to butter me up. Just get straight to the point.

I spent my whole life with actors. It's all about motivation. You clearly want

something, so spit it out. Because at 4 .30, I lose half my cast to lacrosse.

Fair thing.

These notes that you gave the detectives, they're borderline

I know SR, stage right, SL, stage left, upstage, downstage, but what's all this

doing? The left column is the list of theater supplies. That's what TO stands

for, theater. The right column is outside supply, OS, which is anything

in by G, Georgia, and Maya.

I didn't want them using the theater's cups when they're doing shots or playing

beer pong. Oh, you take very good care of this place. That's not flattery. It's

just a damn fact.

And I'm guessing that's why you stayed late. Make sure Maya and Georgia cleaned

up. Exactly. Then I hung out across the street to make sure they locked up when

they left. That's in the report.

Is there any chance that you saw Georgia go back into the building after she

left? No, but I was snapping, so I might have looked away for a sec.

I assume you don't mean... Kicks and texts sent over Snapchat that

Try to keep up, counselor.

Oh, believe you me, I'm trying.

You have one more minute.

Good, because I have one more question.

Good news.

I got a lead on a new eyewitness. Who could have seen right into that

office? Elliot said he saw someone cross upstage, stage level, anyway, at the

end of the block.

A Latino man walking a dog. That's your big lead? You didn't let me finish.

A small dog.

You see, dogs and people, they're preachers of habits.

Dogs have to weed. People have to walk them on the same route everywhere they

live. So if our man walked his dog here at the Saturday night of the party,

he'll walk here again at some point.

So they're on a stakeout while we're on a stakeout. Well, technically, it's more

of a lookout.

Go get the name of the flower shop.

I did my missions by myself.

What brings you to the executive floor?

Looking for you.

I'd deny it if you told any of the ladies from Canasta, but I slept

like a tick on a deer after you gave me one of those edible gummies. I wanted to

buy some more.

Ask Stewie. He buys them for me. Okay.

Why do you treat your son like that?

What did you say?

Given Julian's case to Olympia, whatever parental lesson you're trying to teach

there, that dog won't hunt.

It seems to me that because I've eaten an edible gummy with you, you somehow

believe that you and I are equals and that it is in any way acceptable to ask

about my relationship with my son.

So let me be clear.

We aren't. It isn't.

And if it happens again, you will learn just how much weight my name carries.

Because it will follow you to every law firm where you try to get a job.

After you're fired from Jacobs and Moore.

Kind of contrary to New York employment law.

Laws don't touch people like me.

Only kidding.

At least that's what I tell a jury.

Hey, Mrs. Kingston.

It's Joey.

I'm calling because I think we got off on the wrong foot.

So once you have the DNA results, I was hoping we could sit down again, talk

through arrangements for Alfie.

I got the name of the flower shop.

Now we just have to... Are you okay?

What happened?

Alfie's father called.

You got the DNA results back?

No.

I know it's him.

How?

Ellie was a great swimmer.

And at the state championship, she pulled her terrace major.

And it was so excruciating that the doctor prescribed pain meds to get her

through the worst of it.

That's how opioid addiction starts for so many. Not Ellie.

I told people that story.

But it was a lie.

Because it was easier for me to tell my friends that my daughter was a drug

addict if it came from a doctor, rather than admitting that she was struggling

and I missed it. And she took pills at a party.

Anyway, Ellie overheard me one time, and she said,

You were ashamed of me, and you took the one thing that I was proud of, my swim

victory, and you turned it into something ugly.

And this guy, this Joey, he knows that story.

So he must have been someone important.

I have a tissue.

You know, I carry them now because of you.

There you go.

Thank you.

At some point, you have to forgive yourself.

Not until I find justice for Ellie.

And justice means bringing down Senior.

You're right.

I beg and I'll be above the law.

Can you convince Edwin?

Joey left you a message.

Are you okay?

I am now.

I broke down and Olympia was pretty great. Enough, Madeline. I don't want to

hear about Olympia.

She cares about Julian. I care about ending this.

Hey, Maddie. How's it going?

Y 'all packed up?

On some new adventures.

But, um, it's been nice working alongside you.

I'll remember it always.

Oh, hey, Olympia's still in court, right?

Georgia, you told the court on direct that while you and Maya were cleaning

she grabbed a trash bag and disappeared for about 20 minutes.

Yes, that's right.

So to be clear, you didn't actually see Maya start a fire?

No, but everyone else had gone home, so she was the only one left.

Well, not exactly the only one.

After you and Maya left that night, didn't you go back inside the building?

Yes, I went back in, but it was quick.

Like less than a minute.

Gotcha. Let's discuss cocaine use.

Isn't that why you went back inside of the theater that night?

To retrieve your coke stash?

I object to this entire line of questioning.

It goes to motive.

I'll allow it, but get there fast.

Yes. And how much do you spend on cocaine a week?

Maybe like $100, $200, but I swear it's not just for me. Wow.

A lot of money. I'll direct your attention to People's Exhibit H.

It's an insurance report filed by the school.

Georgia, can you read the highlighted section out loud, please?

Electronic equipment, three laptop computers, seven tablets.

15 SSD drives.

Estimated total loss is $14 ,500.

Georgia, did you start the fire to cover up that you were stealing from the

theater to fund your drug habit?

Objection. Withdraw.

May progress with Georgia. Please tell me Sarah and Billy found the dog walker.

No, but I made progress on her other case.

According to a young lady named Ashley.

who loves making TikToks, her boss at the flower shop sucks.

She can't believe he's making her work tomorrow.

Aw, are you saying that this young lady named Ashley seems pissed enough that

she would give us customer information from 14 years ago, even if it goes

against company policy?

Good thinking, kid.

We have to find out everything about Ashley so you know how to approach her

the shop tomorrow.

Right. Come back to my place.

Julian has a kid that has something. He didn't get a hold of you?

Look, Ted had a stomachache. He said he was taking her to the Brownstone.

Julian went to the brownstone?

Mm -hmm. Oh.

Oh, yeah, he texted me. I missed it. Let's go.

Julian?

Julian?

Hi. Hey.

How's Ted? I better book him to our sleep.

I know.

Oh,

God.

My billing, Cooper.

There's a...

There's a leak in my apartment.

Is there somewhere I can talk about it? Come with me. Okay.

Everything okay?

Madeline, I think I saw Joey outside our house.

What? I'm sorry. I forgot to text. Did you? Or did you come here to look for

document? Absolutely not. Dad is more comfortable here than myself. If I find

out that you're lying, I am done helping you. I'm serious.

Go now.

about Olympia.

Olympia is prioritizing her family. Why can't you? Everything I'm doing is for

her family, Edwin.

Stop saying that.

It's too much, Madeline. I can't do it alone.

You're not alone.

I'm glad Joey's gone, but...

Obviously, we have a lot more to talk about, and I can't now.

Just please don't let Olympia suck you in.

Stay focused.

Maddie, you okay?

What did Edwin say?

He's convinced you're manipulating me.

And because I'm emotional about Alfie's father, I can't see it.

Tell me you found the dog, Walker Billy.

Yes. And did he see anyone in the director's office that night?

Okay, bye.

The person he saw wasn't Georgia.

It was Maya.

This is hard for Maya to talk about, and obviously I just found out, but my

daughter was catfished, I guess is the term.

She met a boy online, and she thought it was real, but it was not.

She sent some pictures.

Naked pictures.

This catfisher was blackmailing you, Maya?

He was going to send the pictures to my whole contact list.

That's why I wanted to throw the party.

We charged, and I turned it into crypto, but the director's office was the only

place where a decent wife had to transfer it to him.

So I told Georgia I was taking out the trash, but I didn't sort of fire her

anything.

We are both really sorry she didn't tell the truth earlier, but this is good for

us, right? Like, it blows up their theory about motives.

Unfortunately, it also places Maya the same right before the fire started.

How could Maya's parents not know what was going on?

Because there is no way on earth to know every single thing that goes on with

kids. There are a million different ways for things to go wrong, and parenting

is the hardest job in the world.

And most of the time you feel like you're failing.

So all you can do is show up your best every damn day.

Hey, everything okay, Billy?

Yeah, all good.

Claudia's pregnant.

And it's his.

Obviously. She's deciding what to do and we're meeting for breakfast tomorrow. I

guess thinking of parenting was making me stable, apparently.

Understandable.

How else are you feeling?

Whatever Claudia chooses, I'll support.

That's not what Maddie asked.

She wanted to know how you are feeling.

I guess I feel like... Claudia broke my heart.

Then I got over her. I mean, yeah, sure, I was responding to her booty calls,

but she was on the pill, so how did this happen? Because all I want to do is go

out on hot dates with other people and by my own couch that I get to pick out

alone. I do not want to be...

A father I want to unsubscribe from this baby.

And that is a totally valid way to feel.

Billy, when you meet with Claudia, you support her decision.

And afterwards, you come back here and we'll support yours.

Because this team, we stick together.

I'm sorry I have been so snippy. Oh, it's in here.

Billy just about stapled his hand to the desk today, and he's freaking out about

becoming a dad.

Dad, when?

Oh, God, I'm so sorry.

I shouldn't... I've been Alfie's dad his whole life.

Joey's his father, isn't he?

Just tell me how you know.

Well, actually, I don't.

He got his timelines all mixed up, and that's a big red flag in the legal

Either way, we'll know tomorrow.

So tonight, you want to forget our problems and focus on someone else's?

this case could use some fresh ice.

Well, my cataracts have cataracts, so I don't know about fresh, but... Yes. Yes,

I will. Okay, great.

Because... I need to place Georgia in the director's office to prove she

nitric acid into the party.

Well, and as you like it, stage managers are the comings and the goings of...

Ooh. Huh.

Oh, scared me.

Yeah.

Huh.

Baby, you're a genius.

Stop.

Good morning, Maddie.

Good morning.

I know how Georgia brought accelerant into the party.

Mr. Tanner, could this ping pong ball be the source of the accelerant found in

your report?

I mean, ping pong balls do contain nitric acid, but one doesn't have

close to the amount needed to create the concentrated levels found at the scene.

How about three ping pong balls?

Still not enough.

Ah.

How many would it take to achieve what you called a banger?

I'd say minimum 25.

Here's 50.

Objection. Relevance? I think it's plenty relevant when ping pong balls

nitric acid.

And according to the stage manager's notes, already in evidence, there were

in a bag G carried into the theater. G is for Georgia. She brought them in for

beer pong.

That seems pretty relevant.

Continue.

Mr. Tanner, would 50 ping pong balls produce enough accelerant to

cause a reaction when in contact with a space heater left on for too long?

It would.

Definitely. Georgia shouldn't have sold Maya out. Now she's got a misdemeanor

trespassing and Maya's got a clean record.

Well, always better to stick together. Every day, twice on Sunday. Billy, what

did Claudia decide?

Abortion or saddling you with a baby you don't want every other week?

Actually, we chose the third option.

We're having the baby and getting back together.

Congratulations. Guess what came?

Yes, the charger.

I can't wait to your mom's playlist.

I wanted to apologize.

I didn't look for the document.

But I thought about it.

I was spiraling. I was feeling shut out. But I promise it won't happen again.

Agreed. Because with my new salary, I'm buying you out of the brownstone.

And to save you, I have to build a solid case against your father.

So you need to make things right with him.

Because I need your access.

I'm sorry?

The way I quit, it was immature.

Right now, I don't know if I should go out on my own or go lateral to another

firm, but I know I'll be better positioned if I have a job while I

out.

You're saying you want to come back to a demotion and a huge pay cut?

Yeah.

Wait.

I'm here.

Okay.

Hoping not.

Joey's Alfie's father.

Any other tests you ran?

I'm not sober.

All the more reason to land this wild breakfast plant and get the hell out of

here. Are those tulips from Olympia? Yep.

Love, Deborah Palmer.

Looks like she found out mystery woman's name.

Look, you're not the only actor around here.

I have to.

Olympia's manipulating you. I just need her to see my point of view.

I just want to make sure you don't see hers.

You're right.

Justice means bringing down demons.

I don't want to hear about Olympia. Edwin, 49 years. Let me finish.

She has this key from a bank or a home safe.

Julia went to the brownstone?

Oh, yeah, he texted me. Let's go.

Olivia is prioritizing her family. Why can't you do that?

You're not here.

Joey is circling around, and it's too much, Madeline. I just can't. I can't do

this.

I can't believe she hid the document. I'm just glad our little smoke cookie

the trick.

Oh, baby, you're my smoke cookie.

You ready to end this?

Right to the New York Times.

I would like to meet as soon as possible.

to discuss illegal activity by the law firm Jacobson Moore

with regards to Wellbrexa and their role in the opioid

epidemic.

I have a document they hid.

Here we go.
