All language subtitles for Drop Dead Diva (2009) - S04E07 - Crushed (1080p AMZN WEB-DL x265 Celdra)_track3_[eng]

See that
aspiring model there?

That was me, Deb,
until the day I died.

I thought I'd go
straight to heaven,

but there was
a bit of a mix-up

and I woke up
in someone else's body.

So now I'm Jane,

a super-busy lawyer
with my very own assistant.

I got a new life,
a new wardrobe,

and the only people
who really know
what's going on with me

are my girlfriend Stacy
and my guardian angel, Luke.

I used to think everything
happened for a reason...

Whoo!

...and, well,
I sure hope I was right.

♪ La, la, la, la-la-la-la

♪ La, la-la, la ♪

♪ Ooh, ooh, ooh

♪ Ooh, ooh, ooh

♪ Ooh, ooh, ooh

♪ Ooh-ooh, ooh ♪

Can we please
talk about what's
going on with you?

Uh, what's going
on with me?

You had
your heart broken.

Your fiance told you
he was going to Seattle
to see his friend,

but that was a lie
and now we have
no idea where he's gone.

Well, I'm sure
there's a perfectly
reasonable explanation.

Why are you
defending him?

Because I love him.

Sweetie, no.Do not "sweetie" me.

Owen asked me
to be his wife,

and I have to believe
that he actually meant it.

So, I could really
use some support.

Okay. I'm sorry.

Whatever you need.

Ooh! As your
supportive friend,
I bet that's Owen.

I was wrong.
It's your mom.

Mmm-mmm.
Jane's mom.

Oh.

Hi.Mom!

Is everything okay?

With me? Fabulous!

But

something
is wrong with you.

Did you call her?

No, I swear.

It's 9:00 AM.
And you still
have your robe on.

Oh, my God, Janie.
What's going on?
How's Owen?

Oh, we don't know.
We can't find him.

What do you mean
you can't find him?
Your fiance is missing?

No. It's fine.
Everything is fine.It's fine.

Why are you here?

Remember Chloe Surnow,
little girl you used to
babysit for?

Well, she's now 16
and in a bit of trouble.

Oh, my god.
Are you talking about
Chloe "The Crusher"?

Okay,
she's on the swim team.

And when another girl
came up for air...

Bam!
She crushed her skull
and killed her.

Allegedly.

Well, it's been
all over the news.

Chloe's mom just fired
their public defender.

Jane, Chloe's innocent.

She really,
really needs your help.

I'm really
busy right now.
I can recommend...

You were
so close to Chloe.

When her father took off,
you weren't just
her babysitter.

You were her best friend.

Oh, and Chloe's mom
asked me to apologize

for the argument
the two of you
had years ago.

What argument?It's not important.

Jane,
she needs your help.

I don't ask for much.

Where the hell's Bingum?

I'm sure she'll
be here any minute.

I hear
Owen dumped her.

She's probably
at home listening to
I Will Surviveon a loop.

I'm so sorry I'm late.

I had a...
A visitor this morning.

Was it Owen?

I'm sorry. You are?

Oh. Gina Blunt.
It's nice to meet you.

Gina and I
are old friends
from law school.

She's considering making
a significant loan
to Harrison & Parker.

Okay. Uh,
we have a creditor. Luke.

Yes, we do.

But as an attorney,
Gina understands
our business model

better than
the Karate Kid.

Uh, well,
admit it, Parker.

Luke's getting
on your nerves.

This morning,
I found him in my office

playing Twister
with the paralegals.

I'm hoping Gina
will buy out Luke,

which is permissible
under our agreement.

Does Luke
know about this?

Well, there's no
need to alert him,
until Gina commits.

In the meantime, I've signed
a nondisclosure agreement,

so nothing is off limits.

Excuse the interruption.

Jane,
your client is here.

The ones your
mom sent over.Great.

Hi, Gina.
Remember me?

'Cause I remember you.

Burn in hell.

Excuse me.
I, uh... I got to go.

Gina, I'm so
sorry about that.

No. It's fine.

I know Teri
from back when I was
a partner at Walkey & Stein.

She blames me for
something that I didn't do,

but I won't hold
that against you.

You want to talk
about what just
happened in there?

I hate that woman.

Yeah.
You made that quite clear.

I put
Chloe Surnow's file
on your desk.

But before you go inside,
can we talk about Owen?

No. But I appreciate
your concern.

Jane.Do not "Jane" me.

Now, I'm going
to go in there,
put on a smiley face,

and talk to
a 16-year-old girl
accused of murder.

You look well, Jane.

Oh, thank you.

Mrs. Surnow.

Peg.

Of course, Peg.

You know,
I'm sure that we have
so much to catch up on,

so why don't we
just focus on the case?

Okay.

Uh, Brittney Hollis
was killed at 5:27,

the night before
she was supposed
to testify against Chloe

at a high-school
honor-code hearing.

I was accused
of cheating on
my AP History test.

But it was bogus.
Brittney made it all up.

Why would she do that?

Because Brittney
was a bitch.

Michelle!She needs to know.

Brittney and I
were on the swim team.

Next week
is the interstate finals,

and only the top swimmer
in each category gets to go.

Mmm-hmm.

We're both freestyle,
and I'm a few tenths faster.

And cheating is
instant grounds for
getting kicked off the team.

So, Brittney would
have gotten her spot.

Yeah.

Two hours after
that girl was killed,

the police came
to our house and
hauled off half our stuff.

And then they
charged her as a minor

and offered
two years in juvie,
but she's innocent.

I swear.

Uh, would you mind
just giving us a moment?

Sure.Thanks.

We'll be right outside.

Michelle.

I've missed you so much.

I've missed you, too.

I know you had
to stop calling

because of the falling out
you had with my mom.

And I understand.
I'm not mad.

Um, okay.

Uh, so, it says here
when you were arrested

that they found several
scratches on your arms.

I volunteer
at an animal hospital.

They were from a cat.

And they also
found two drops
of Brittney's blood

on your pants?

Back in February,
before this all happened,

the swim team was in
Santa Clarita for a meet.

On the bus,
Brittney got a nosebleed.

A few drops must have
gotten on my pants.

Wait a minute.
Are these wool sailor pants?

Yeah, why?

Brittney was killed
two weeks ago. It's Spring.

There's no way
you'd be wearing
wool sailor pants in Spring.

I haven't worn
them since February.
So, you believe me?

The DA has a text message
that you sent to Brittney
on the day of the murder.

"You know I didn't cheat.
You're a liar.

"Tell the truth or else."

I was angry.
I didn't mean I'd kill her.

Okay, Chloe, listen.

I know that the
offered plea is terrible,

but going to trial
can be so much worse.

Do you remember
what you told me
when my father left us?

You said I had a choice.

That I could remember him
as my father, a man I loved,

or I could remember him
as the jerk who left us.

Oh, right.
Yes, I said that.

I chose to
remember him as my dad.

And now I have
another choice.

Take the plea
and tell the world
I'm a killer,

or fight
and say I'm innocent.

Even if I lose, at least
I stood up for myself.

And that's what I choose.

Okay.

I will file
an emergency motion to
suppress the text message.

And I'm not exactly sure
under what grounds,

but the jury
cannot hear those words.

So, you'll be my lawyer?Absolutely.

And you and I
will not be taking a plea

because we are
choosing to fight.

"You know I didn't cheat.
You're a liar.

"Tell the truth or else."

That text
goes directly to motive.

It's inflammatory,

and there is no proof
that Chloe wrote it.

It was sent
from her phone.

The text was sent
from Chloe's phone
during swim practice.

Approximately 20 other girls
had access to her phone

because she left it
in her book bag.

And you can
argue that at trial.

To admit this text
into evidence

is way more prejudicial
than probative.

I'm sorry, but I agree
with the District Attorney.

Uh, Your Honor, due to
the gravity of the charges

and the fact
that Chloe is a minor,

I ask for
a wee bit of leeway.

A wee bit.

I would like
to ask the DA

to check his cell
for incoming texts.

Any recent messages?

Yes. One text,
20 minutes ago from my wife.

So, what, Your Honor?Would you please read it?

"Roses are red.
Violets are blue.

"Jane Bingum is smarter
and better than you."

What's going on here?

Like my client,
the DA's wife

doesn't guard her phone
every moment of the day.

In fact, my mother
just sent that text
from his wife's phone

when she left it in
her purse at yoga class.

Objection,
on so many levels.

Actually,
I believe Ms. Bingum
proved her point.

Your Honor,
please, reconsider.

You have my ruling.
The text will not
be read to the jury.

Thank you.

That was great, Janie.
I'm so proud of you.

Thank you for
your help, Mom.

But I told you to text,
"Hello from Jane Bingum."

Jane,
you got a second?

Whatever you want to say,
you can say in front of me.

Mom.

Fine.
I'll meet you at the car.

That was some stunt.

Well, anything
for a client, right?

I just got off the phone
with my boss.

He's decided
to re-file against Chloe.

We're charging her
as an adult.

You can't be serious.

Oh, my God.

Is this because
I embarrassed you in court?

Prosecutorial discretion.

And on closer look,

we decided that the
murder was premeditated.What?

Your client will be looking
at 25 to life, maybe worse.

Unless, of course,
you want to accept a plea.

Two years in juvie?

As an adult,
that's off the table.

We're offering five years

in a California
women's correctional facility.

Offer expires end of day.

Hey.
Didn't hear you come in.

I have a job for you.

Good.
I need some billables.

I want you to take
Gina out to dinner.

You're pimping me out
to a prospective investor?

Gina needs
to get to know the firm,

and you clearly
have some free time
on your hands.

I've made you
a reservation at Letizia.

Cheer up.
It's all billable.

Jane.Hi.

Can I come in?

Of course.

It must feel strange
being back here.

It's been so many years.

Yes. Yeah. Yeah.

Jane.

Tracy.
Peg's sister?

Uh, yes.

We met years ago.
You probably don't remember.

I really need
to speak to Chloe.

Oh, of course.
She's in her room.

Great.

Right. In her room.

Chloe?Come in.

Hey.

Jane!
What's going on?

Well, um...

The DA wants to
charge you as an adult.

But I'm only 16.

It's their discretion.

I filed an
emergency appeal,
but it was denied.

And if you are convicted,
you're looking at...

The death penalty, right?

They've offered a plea.

No!

Chloe, circumstances
have changed.

But I'm still innocent!

You remember that photo?

Yes, I do.

When mom told me
dad wasn't coming back,

I started ripping up
all his pictures.

But you stopped me
before I got to that one.

Yeah.
Of course I would.

One minute he's
the best dad in the world,

and then he just takes off
in the middle of the night.

No explanation.
No goodbye.

I'm so sorry.

Okay.

Chloe, you're being
charged as an adult,

so the decision to
reject the plea is yours.

But I think we should
talk to your mother.

You know, sit down...No.

Okay?

Okay.

Teri!
Can I get you a pake?

No. I want to
talk about Jane.
I'm worried about her.

Ugh! Me, too.

She thinks there's
a rational explanation
for Owen's disappearance.

Is there
a rational explanation

that his latest
credit-card statement

places him at
a motel in Minneapolis
the day after he took off?

What?
How did you find this?

I went to
Owen's apartment
to search for clues.

You broke in?

Owen gave Jane a key,

and I borrowed the key
when Jane was in court.

Ipso facto,
I have permission to enter.

Oh, my God.

Wait. Why are you
telling me and not Jane?

'Cause Jane won't
talk to me about Owen.

Me, either.

What should we do?

We respect her wishes,
stay silent, and smile.

Fine.

But if a guy
did that to me,

I would want my friends
to hit him over
the head with a shovel

and feed his lifeless body
to a school of piranha.

Have a nice day.

What I don't understand is
he asked you to marry him.Mmm-hmm.

Then he left town.

Did you and Owen
have a fight?No.

I don't know why he left,
and I don't know where he is.

What I would
really like to do

is focus on the case
that you begged me to take.

Here is the map
you asked for.

Oh, great. Okay.

So, let's just
walk through the timeline.

All right, at 3:00 PM,
Chloe left her high school

and she drove
her little sister
to the art institute

in Thousand Oaks,
then she returned home,

where she remained
the rest of the night.

Now, her mother
left the house at
approximately 5:00 PM

to go to the
Sherwood farmers' market,

leaving Chloe alone until
she returned at around 7:00.

And you want
to find someone who
can confirm that Chloe

was really home between
5:00 and 7:00, don't you?

Exactly.

So, I need you to
talk to neighbors,
UPS, the cable guy,

anybody who can
place Chloe in the house

when the murder
was committed.

Hello, ladies.

I sincerely hope you're
not calling me a lady.

What do you want, Kim?

Ooh.

Chloe killed Brittney
with a pool filter cover?

I am representing Chloe,

so please do not
put the murder
weapon in her hand.

Yeah, this is
the murder weapon.

Okay. Well, per Parker,
I'm now on the case with you.

So, hope that's
not a problem.

I actually could
use the help.

Also, Accounting spoke
with Chloe's mom
about payment.

They got
nothing in the bank.

No, no, no.
I know this family.
I'm doing it pro bono.

Parker said no pro bono.

Okay, fine.
I will figure out
a deferred payment plan.

That's a start.

In the meantime, Teri,

I want you to track down
the deadbeat dad.

See if we can squeeze
anything out of that stone.

After he split,
Peg told me her ex
moved to New Mexico.

He sent her
two child-support checks
and then nothing.

Good. Means he
owes her a lot of money
and the firm can put a lien

on his unpaid
child support payments.

Uh, hold on.
First of all,
if we find this guy,

the money should
go to the girls.

It is going
to the girls, Jane.

It's going to
Chloe's legal defense.

Now, find him.

I have to admit,
I was surprised
by the invitation.

Really?

Well, I was more surprised
that you picked this place.

I had you pegged for more
of a wings-and-beer guy.

Well, yeah.
I admit I'd take a happy hour
at a sports bar any day,

but I figured,
with you...

Parker put you
up to this, didn't he?

And he picked this place.

No.

No. Of course not.

Yes. Sorry.

What are
you supposed to do?

Seduce me and get me
to invest in the firm?

Well, I tell you
what, Grayson,

your sexy smile
is not gonna influence
my business decisions.

Parker should
have known that.

I'm sorry
he wasted your time.

You can tell your boss
we had a lovely evening.

I will swear by it.
Honestly, I'm not mad.

Wait. You're not
leaving, are you?

I don't need an escort
to eat my dinner.

Well, there's a wing joint
down the block.

Best hot sauce in LA.

All right. You're on.

Mr. Villamar,
you attend high school
with the defendant.

Is that correct?That's right.

And on the night
of the murder,

you were lifting weights
in the room adjacent
to the pool.

Yes. It was Tuesday,
so it was quads and cardio.

Did you notice
anything unusual?

Yeah, I was doing squats,
and I heard a girl screaming,

"Get away from the pool,
get away from the pool."

Then I heard a scream
and a thump.

I ran out to the pool,
and I saw Brittney,

facedown in the water,
blood gushing from her head.

And in the distance,
someone was running away.

Did you see who?

No, but they were wearing
a yellow swim team jacket.

I'm sure of that.

Is this the jacket?

It looks like it.

Your Honor,
may the record reflect

that the witness
is referring to
People's Evidence eight,

retrieved from
the defendant's domicile.

It belongs
to the defendant.

Your witness.

Let's talk about
the yellow jacket.

Now, I went through
the Facebook pages

of all the girls
on the swim team.

And all the girls
wear the same yellow jacket.

So, how do you know
that People's Evidence eight

was the jacket you saw
on the night of the murder?

I'm not sure it was.

And did you also know
that the jacket is available
through online retailers?

Mom.

Does my mother's
yellow jacket

look like the
yellow jacket you saw
on the fleeing suspect?

Yes.

Thanks.
No more questions.

Rudy,

is there a zipper tab
missing from Chloe's jacket?

Yes.
Yeah, it's gone.

Your Honor,
the day after the murder,

the crime lab
processed the pool filter

and found
a zipper tab consistent
with Chloe's jacket.

We submit the lab report
as People's Evidence nine.

Whoa! Whoa!

I demand that the
zipper evidence be tossed

and all reference
stricken from the record.

On what grounds?

We had no notice.

This is a blatant violation

of the state's ongoing
discovery obligation.

Hold on.
This evidence was submitted

to the public defender
representing Chloe.

Ms. Bingum, the DA
cannot be responsible
if you're ill-prepared.

Okay.He's right.

The evidence is admissible,

but I will grant
a short recess.

You were
blindsided in court.
How did that happen?

It's not my fault
the PD didn't
hand over everything.

Seriously, Jane.
This is a Murder One case.

Today's setback
will be on the news.

It's an embarrassment
to the firm.

What do you
want me to do, Kim?

Look, let's talk about
the blood on Chloe's pants

and the scratches
on her arm.

Chloe can
explain all that.

But after today,
will a jury even believe her?

I mean, you ask me,
she should take the plea
if it's still on the table.

Excuse me.
Am I interrupting?

No.
What's going on?

I couldn't find anyone
who would confirm

that Chloe was at home when
her mom was at the market

when Brittney got murdered.

So, now we have no one
to confirm her alibi.

But in reviewing
the timeline,

I did find
something interesting.

Chloe said
she dropped off
her sister Michelle

at the art institute
after school.

But I spoke
with a teacher there

who said Michelle
never showed up.

Why would Chloe lie
about dropping off her sister?

Maybe she wasn't lying.

Maybe Chloe
did drop her off,

and Michelle
just didn't go inside.

Well, where'd she go?

Well, I don't know.
But I've already had
my hand slapped

for not being prepared, so...

Wait.
Michelle has a cellphone.

Okay, and?

And there's
a consolidated file
that acts as a cache

for location data
with time stamps. Ah!

So, I'll write
a request for a subpoena,

and we will figure out
where she went.

Oh, no.

What?

The prosecution
has amended the witness list.

They're calling
Chloe's mom to the stand.

Why would they do that?

I mean,
she's her mother.

Peg's gonna say anything
to defend her child.

What does the DA
know that we don't?

I heard about last night.
Chicken wings?

Yeah, about that...

Gina had a great time.
I owe you.

Make way. Coming through.

What is that?

A slushy machine
for employee morale.

Also doubles
as a margarita maker

for our firm's
"Margarita Mondays."

They've been a big success.Since when?

Right. You're...
You're not invited. Sorry.

Apparently, not having
the firm's managing partner

at Margarita Mondays
is also good for
employee morale.

Later.

Please tell me
Gina's gonna invest.

We didn't
talk about that.

Right. We don't
want to seem desperate.

Smart move.Yeah.

Jane, how you doing?

I'm fine. Thank you.

You must be
devastated about Owen.

I'm sorry.

Oh, yeah, well,
you should be.

You did everything
you possibly could

to keep me away
from Grayson.

Then I actually
fall in love with Owen,

and then Owen
leaves me, so thank you.

It totally sucks.

You'll find someone new.

That's your advice?

You're my guardian angel
and your words of wisdom are,

"You'll find someone new"?

Someone new and...

...improved?

I don't want
to find someone
new and improved.

I want Owen. Okay?

And you know what?

With all my talk
of marriage,

I probably scared him away,
and I have to live with that.

And that's fine.CHLOE: Jane?

I got your text.

Great.

Are you okay?

Uh, yes.
Oh, yeah. I'm fine.

Let's go talk
in my office.

Chloe, we subpoenaed
the GPS data
from Michelle's phone.

What?

After you dropped her
off at the art institute,
she didn't go inside.

She went back to school.

I don't understand.

This evidence
places your sister
at the crime scene

at the time of the murder.

She was at the pool?

We can't actually
prove that,

but we can place her
in the vicinity.

Chloe, I know that
this may not be easy,

but I am thinking...

Maybe Michelle
killed Brittney?

No way.

I mean, maybe Michelle
had to go back and...

And get something
out of her locker, right?

I mean,
that's possible, right?

Yes. Yes.
Anything is possible.

I would like to
introduce this information
about Michelle in court.

Now, this is
a classic strategy

to cast
reasonable doubt
on your client

by focusing
on someone else.

You can't do that
to my sister.

She didn't do anything.You have to trust us.

Please, don't drag
my sister into this.

Chloe, right now
this is your best shot.

I'm the client.

I mean, what I say,
you need to follow it, right?

That is true.

Jane, you have to
find another way.

Kim.

How did it go
with Chloe?

We cannot
go after her sister.

We don't have
another option.

By law, we are
required to follow
the wishes of our client.

She's a kid.
We know better.

I am first chair, so we are
following her instructions

whether you
like it or not.

Let's go to court.

According to your deposition,
the day of the murder,

you left your house
at 5:00 PM to go
to the farmers' market.

That's right.

And Chloe was at home
when you left?

Yes. And she was there
when I returned.

How far away do you live
from the high school?

Two miles.

So, you can't account
for your daughter

during those two hours
you were at the market?

I trust my daughter.
I know...

Yes or no?

No.

At the time of the murder,

where was your
younger daughter, Michelle?

She was at art class.

Actually, she wasn't.

Excuse me.
Could we have a brief recess?

What's going on?We just need a moment.

Ms. Kaswell?

I realize you are first chair,
but as partner, I outrank you.

Now sit down.

Sorry, Your Honor.
We are good to go.

Chloe dropped
her sister off
at the art institute,

but Michelle
never actually went in.

We have the data
from her phone's
geographic locator.

Are you aware
that Michelle went back

to the high school where
Brittney was murdered?

No.
I wasn't aware of that.

Are you aware
that she was dating
a boy named Tim Nolan?

Yes, but they broke up.

Did you know they broke up
because Tim started
dating the victim?

And Tim dumped Michelle.

Objection.Objection!

Ms. Bingum, you can't
object to your co-counsel.

Mr. Saginaw,
what are your grounds
for your objection?

Um...

Leading the witness.

Leading the witness,
Your Honor.

Counselors, Ms. Surnow,
approach the bench.

Bailiff,
clear the courtroom.

What the hell
is going on in here?

My co-counsel and I

have a difference of opinion
on how to proceed.

That was obvious.
I'm talking about
the accusations

leveled at
Ms. Surnow's other daughter.

We believe Michelle
had motive,

means, and opportunity
for killing Brittney Hollis.

That's ridiculous!

And we're laying
the groundwork for
reasonable doubt for Chloe.

Why the
sour face, Ms. Bingum?

I was hoping
to free our client

without indicting
her younger sister.

I think
it's too late for that.

You've handed us
a second viable suspect.

In fact,
the people request
an arrest warrant

for Michelle Surnow.

So now you're going
after both my girls?

Your Honor,
if the DA agrees that

the evidence
against Michelle creates
reasonable doubt

as to Chloe,
then certainly the DA

must agree that
the charges against Chloe

constitute reasonable doubt
as to Michelle.

Even if that were the case,
my office has absolute
prosecutorial discretion.

True, but this
scattershot approach

isn't tolerated
in my courtroom.

All right.

We're dropping
our case against Chloe

and filing a new case
against her sister.

Bailiff,
take Michelle Surnow
into custody.

No! Please!

Jane, do something.

I'm sorry.Jane.

What have you done?

Your Honor,

Michelle Surnow is gone.

How dare you
subvert me in open court.

How dare you talk to
a partner like an equal.

Please.

Kim, you will
never be my equal.

I did what was
best for our client.

In violation
of her wishes!

Oh, what's she gonna do,

sue us for getting
her charges dropped?

We did our job.

End of story.

Don't stop on my account.

What do you need, Teri?

Michelle,
your client's sister,
is on line two. For Jane.

Oh.Don't answer that phone.

She is not our client.

And since privilege
doesn't apply,

you could be forced
to testify against her.

Hi, Michelle.
Don't say anything
about the case.

I just want to know
if you're okay?

Good. Okay.
I'll be there.

You'll "be there"?Yep.

Jane, you cannot
go see that girl.

There is a warrant out
for Michelle's arrest,

and as an officer
of the law

you have absolute duty
to tell her to surrender.

"Absolute duty."
Got it, Kim.

As a partner in this firm,
I forbid you from seeing her.

She is 14 years old.

She's scared and confused,

and I'm gonna make sure
that she is okay.

And there's nothing
you can do to stop me.

Teri!

I am so
glad you're here.

I got your text.

Okay, so, we need to
talk about Jane and Owen.

I thought you said...Forget about what I said.

After you told me
about Owen's Minneapolis
credit-card bills,

I went on Facebook to see
if he has any friends there.

Turns out, he has one,
his college girlfriend.

This is bad.
This is so bad.

So, do we tell her now?

She's in the middle
of a huge case.

As soon as it's over,
we'll let her know.

We'll do it together, okay?

In the meantime,
can you get the key
to Owen's place again?

Of course.
I made a copy.

Jane!

Michelle. Hi, girls.

Uh, look,

there's a warrant out
for your arrest.

Oh, my God.

Michelle, you have to
turn yourself in.

But I'm innocent.

You skipped art class.
I have proof.

I've been skipping it
for weeks.

After Chloe drops me off,
Faye picks me up and we...

We get stoned at
Encinata Park with Sandy.

It's true. We swear.Nice try.

But on the day of the murder,
you were not at the park.

You were at the school.I know.

There was a fire
on Westlake Boulevard,

so there was no way
to get back to the park.

Since Sandy
lives near the school,

we thought we'd
sneak over a fence

and smoke under
the football bleachers.

The fire
on Westlake Boulevard,
was the road closed?

Yeah,
in both directions.

Please,
just don't tell my mom
I was smoking pot.

She'd go ballistic.

Michelle, that's the least
of your problems, okay?

Now, listen,
I'll help you,

but you have to
turn yourself in.

I'm not one for gossip,
but we need to talk.

Did you hear
Flo in accounting

is sleeping
with Judy the paralegal?

Seriously?No. Slushy?

No. It makes me too cold,
and I'm not wearing a bra.

Ah.

Luke, the firm is
looking to replace you
as our creditor.

You mean with Gina Blunt?So, you know?

Sure. And there's nothing
I can do about it.

Why do you care?

I don't like her,
and I don't trust her.

And now I'm intrigued.
Go on.

Before Jane,
I worked at another firm.

And Gina clawed
her way to the top.

And on her way up,
she got my boss fired.

That bitch is bad news.

And if she replaces you,
then I'm out of here, too.

It's Jane.
She needs me.

I'm scared.

I know, but we're
gonna get through this.

Michelle Surnow.

Yes?

Come with me.

Jane.

Oh, great. Did you
bring the evidence log?Yeah.

Everything that
was confiscated
at the Surnow house

is highlighted in yellow.

I need you to go
to the evidence vault.

Check out items
six through 14.

Get them
to the crime lab.

I've left instructions
with the director on duty.

Then I want you to meet me
at Michelle's arraignment.

She has just
turned herself in.

Wait. Slow down.
What's going on?

I think I know
who killed Brittney.

All rise.

Docket 2231,
People vs. Michelle Surnow.

One count,
murder in the first degree.

Is the defendant
prepared to enter a plea?

No, Your Honor.

And I know it's unorthodox
at an arraignment,

but if you would
permit me, I would
like to call a witness.

At an arraignment?
Come on.

This isn't
Poor Man's Discovery.

She can wait until trial
like everyone else.

Please, we are talking
about a 14-year-old girl

that has been railroaded
by the prosecutor.

I implore you
to hear this witness.

And if I go too far,
by all means,
hold me in contempt.

Considering the
severity of the charge,

and the age
of the defendant,
I'll allow it.

Defense calls
Peg Surnow to the stand.

At the time of the murder,

you were at the
lake Sherwood
farmers' market.

And you left
your home at 5:00.

You returned about 7:00.
Correct?

Yes. That's right.

Here is a map.

Now, in order to
go from your home
to the farmers' market,

you would have to take
Westlake Boulevard.

Is that
the route you take?

Yes. It's the only
way to get there.

Are you aware
that Westlake Boulevard
was closed due to a fire

from 3:15 to 9:46 PM
on the day of the murder?

It was
a really stressful night.

Maybe I went
to a different market?

I'm... I'm not sure.

Well, perhaps I can
refresh your memory.

Don't worry. Teri.

On the night
that Chloe was arrested,

the police confiscated
all of the shoes
from your house.

Michelle is a size six,
Chloe's a size seven,
and you are size nine.

Correct?What does this have
to do with anything?

The lab tested
all of the shoes,

and this pair of
size nine pumps has
chlorine on the soles.

Because I occasionally
wear them around the pool
of a friend of mine.

The chlorine is consistent
with the chemical composition

of the pool water
at Chloe's high school,

where Brittney
was murdered.

This is crazy, Jane.

This is crazy.

I agree.

Peg, I know
that you love your girls,

and you would do
anything for them.

So,
start telling the truth.

You do not want
Michelle to go to jail
for something you did.

I'm sorry.

You're sorry?

I didn't want to
kill Brittney.

I didn't mean to...
I didn't even think I...

What happened, Peg?

I went to the pool
to try to convince Brittney

not to testify
against Chloe for cheating.

Okay.

Chloe wanted
to go to the interstate
finals so badly,

and this girl was lying.

And so, I wanted to
reason with her.

But she wouldn't even
get out of the pool to talk.

She just laughed
and swam away.

And when she
came up for air,

she spit water in my face,

and I... I just...

I flipped!

I'm sorry!

I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

It's just so sad.

Hey, at least
we found the right killer.

Yes, "we" did.

And now the girls
are gonna go live
with their aunt Tracy,

who isn't
a cold-blooded murderer.

So, it's practically
happily ever after
thanks to us.

Yes. Yes, right.
Thanks to "us."

Kim, I got your text.
What's up?

Oh, yeah.
Uh, we need to get paid.

Have you found
the father?

Honestly,
it's like he has
completely disappeared.

There's no evidence
that he ever went to
New Mexico or anywhere else.

Like your mother said,
he hasn't paid taxes

or gotten a driver's license
or opened a bank account.

I tried to
contact his family,
but he is an only child,

and both of his
parents are dead.
I'm sorry.

Um, I've got to go.

Black cherry slushy?

Oh, uh... Oh.

I'm Luke Daniels,
firm's creditor.

Gina Blunt.
It's nice to meet you.

I hear you're thinking
about paying off my loan,

taking on my debt here.

That's right.Have you seen the firm's
outstanding liabilities?

I'm aware of the
firm's balance sheet.

Parker's been quite honest.

So, you know you'd
be assuming a lot of risk.

Yeah, that's...
That's true, Luke.

And yet, you invested.

My reasons were personal.

Ah.

I just wanted to make sure
you had all the information.

How thoughtful.

You forgot your slushy.

I haven't
forgotten anything.

Mom, I need to know

why I had a falling
out with Mrs. Surnow.

Jane, take a breath.
Can I pour you
a glass of vino?

No, thank you. Listen,
what happened between us?

And why did I
stop talking to Chloe?

Well, I'm surprised
you don't remember

because you were
pretty upset back then.

Well, I probably
blocked it out.

Will you please
just tell me?

Okay.

After Chloe's
father took off,
she was a wreck.

She cried for weeks.

And you
tried to convince Peg

to let her daughter
call her father in New Mexico,

but she was
dead set against it.

In fact,
she forbade you from
seeing Chloe because of it.

Mr. Surnow never paid
those two alimony payments.

In fact,
I don't think he ever
went to New Mexico.

Why would Peg
have lied about that?

I think I need
to make a call.

Thank you.

So, the detective found
skeletal remains of
a man in their backyard.

Oh, my God.

Dental records
are consistent
with Mr. Surnow's.

I just can't believe it.

Hmm.After all these years.

Janie, how did
you even know
he was buried here?

Chloe said
that her dad disappeared

in the middle of the night.

If Peg killed him
in the house,

he'd be way
too heavy to move.

She'd have to drag him
out back and dig a hole.

She made up a story,
and we all believed it.

He didn't have
any other family and
no one missed him.

Except for his daughters.

You know what?
Let's go home.

Actually, while you were
talking to the detective,
Stacy called.

Mmm.We need to make a stop.

Hello, there.

Am I interrupting?No, of course not.

I would like to assume
the firm's debt.

I accept your offer.

That is fantastic news.

Hey, how about
we go celebrate?

Uh, actually tonight
I have plans. Rain check?

Anytime.
Welcome aboard.

Mom,
what are we doing here?

It's been a long day.
I just want to go home.

Hi.

Jane.

Uh, we need you
to listen to us.

Is that Owen's sweater?

And the stuffed frog
that he won for me
at the pier.

We're doing
an ex-fiance bonfire.

Jane, we love you,
and we care about you,

which is why
we need to tell you
the truth about Owen.

He went to Minneapolis,
where his college
girlfriend lives.

You went on Facebook?

She did.

And she got
his credit-card bills.

He stayed at a motel.

Wait. How do you
know about Facebook?

Because I did my research.

You know? I just...

I just wasn't ready
to admit it.

But I still had hope.

Well, if you want,
we can just go home

and forget about this.

And there's nothing wrong
with a little denial.

No, actually, there is.

Owen doesn't
want to marry me.

And as much as
I don't want to say that...

...I need to face it
and move on.

So, who has a match?

Teri?
