Meet our newest clerk--

Mr. Luke Watkins,
coming straight

from Courtroom 802!

I'm running
for State Attorney General.

Benner's worried
about opposition research,

so she turns to you?

A toxic class action

Was that against
Cubrillon Industries?

I should just forget
the whole thing

is what I should do.
- Yeah.

Have you talked
to opposing counsel yet?

Jean Rubenstone-Frost.
She represented the workers.

I was hoping you had
a few minutes to talk

about Cubrillon Industries.

Your daughter--what would she--
what would she--

She left.

She rejected everything
I ever stood for.

Went to college,
took a job with the state.

She doesn't care.

I don't think that's true.

I have gone months
without talking to my parents.

I have been mad at them,
but I never stopped caring.

What's her name?
Your daughter.

Alice.

How do you think
Alice will feel?

[ breathing heavily ]
She--

When she turns on the news,
will you be proud

for her to see that you killed
an unarmed man?

[ continues
breathing heavily ]

[ panting ]

I appreciate that, Captain.
Still, I--

Ahem. Call back
at your earliest convenience.

[ scoffs ]

[ exhales deeply ]

What?

It's just...
it's odd, seeing you,

when I've had this--
this--this image of you

in my head for years.
- Which was?

Corporate shark
in a Chanel suit,

handing a pen
to my clients,

asking them to sign
their futures away.

I liked that suit.

I wasn't that person.

You must like
Judge Carmichael.

Wouldn't trust just anyone
with your opposition research.

She always knows
what's right.

You wanted her
to bust you for Cubrillon?

I wanted to know
how she'd feel about it

if she found out,

to see...how a big
of a political liability

it would be,

and if someone with
a moral compass like hers

could excuse it, then maybe
I could forgive myself.

Not how that works.

What you did to those people--
- Come on, Jean.

I saw how you worked
my clients.

I know what that
firm was doing--

You didn't see everything.

Sure. Fine. You're right.

I don't need to hear
your excuses anyway.

I'm ready to actually
tell you what happened

if you're willing
to listen.

Go ahead.

I leaked the documents.

And I made it look

like it came
from inside the company.

If anybody finds out,
it's over.

I'll be disbarred,
everything I've worked for.

[ exhales deeply ]

[ sobs ]

[ sighs ]

No news is good news.

Until it isn't.

[ sighs ]

I don't even know
what to say,

except that I'm trying
not to freak out myself,

but about
that other thing--

some advice to take
your mind off the crisis?

Why not?

Give her space.

My last girlfriend?

Said I didn't do enough.

Said she didn't know
how I felt about her.

Don't--
Do not overcorrect.

How about
a little quiet time?

Your Honor, are you seriously
not concerned

about what's happening
in Courtroom 802?

Trying not to be.
Would you like to know why?

Sure.

Because I can't tell the future.
No one can.

Isn't that what you've been
trying to prove in this case?

No one has a crystal ball.
Might as well be an optimist.

Assume the best.
Live your life.

Same applies
to your relationship.

Don't create
a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Just listen to her.

Thank you

saving my life.

Please.

You don't want to do that.

Find my daughter.

Tell her that I loved her.

Ephraim, no.

If you do what I think
you're about to do,

what's the point?

Unhinged gunman
killed by officers.

Is that what you want
your legacy to be?

Why should I care?

You came here to my courtroom
with a point to make,

and I gave you my word
that we would listen to you.

Don't you still
want that, Ephraim--

to be heard?

'Cause if so,
now is the time.

♪♪♪

If they go in there...

Alice?
Did I hear that right?

Alice? You need to talk
to him.

I'm sorry. Who are you?

Someone who cares a lot

about the people
in that courtroom.

Something changed.

When I left, he thought
I was abandoning him,

and I tried to explain,
but he got so mad,

and I...I threw it
right back at him.

After what I said,

there's no way
he'll listen to me.

Maybe not, but you might
not get another chance.

This morning, my boss--

I snapped at her
for being indecisive,

and my...my boyfriend
brought me breakfast,

just to be nice.

And I was such an ass.

Um...

If I could talk
to them now...

but I can't

because they're both
in there.

to say to your father

happens,

♪♪♪

All right, Mr. Bowles.

The court is prepared
to hear your statement.

What is it that you want?

Freedom...from all this.
I want my life back.

You cannot do this.
By storming the courtroom,

you are endangering
those people.

We don't know
what she's gonna say.

We don't know
how he'll react.

She can get through to him.
There is a chance.

If things go wrong
and you had that opportunity--

Get the camera feed up,
but I want your people in place.

The second there's even a hint
of this going sideways,

we move in.

Help me understand why.

The house they took--
I was born in it.

My daughter
was born there, too.

It sounds like
a very special place.

It was my world.

Everything I learned
I learned there--

how to survive,
how to be free--

Free from what?Free from your world.

All the terrible things
that go on out there--

wars, drugs,
violent crime,

terrorism.
Do you blame me?

You don't have to tell me

about the ugly parts
of this country.

But you take the good
with the bad.

Church picnics
and ball games

and fish frys--Oh, those things--
are they worth

surrendering your free will
to government oppression?

Society in every state,
is a blessing,

but government,
even at its best,

is a necessary evil.

Thomas Paine,
"Common Sense."

Pretty words.
What's your point?

If you choose
to only see the bad,

to toss out
human connection

in the name
of protecting your liberty,

then you see freedom.
I see isolation.

I see a prison
of your own making,

and that sounds
pretty lonely to me, Ephraim.

It didn't used to be.

Ephraim...

Why did you bring her here?

Dad, please stop this.

Why are you doing this?

They took everything I had.
They took our home,

my land.
- The land? Is that really...

Dad,
I--I love that place, too.

I can talk to people,

to get it back, but, I mean,
is that all that really

matters to you?

Without my land,
without my freedom...

I'm not gone, Dad.

Everything that I ever
worked for is--

Just because I left,
chose a different life,

I still need you.
