Previously onBull...There's something

I have to tell you.
Henri is married.

That doesn't make any sense.

We separated five years ago,

but in the midst of the divorce,
she was diagnosed with MS,

so we decided
to stay married

so she could stay
on my health insurance.

I'm sorry.

How did you find out?

I did a background check
on you.

I guess neither of us
is having lunch today.

Henri, I...

[horse neighing]

[horse sputters]

[horse neighs]

We've been over this.
You know who to watch out for.

Gatsby's Greatest.
He's a stalker.Got it.

And Rebel With A Cause shoots
out the gate like a bullet.

Lauren, I've got this.

Give 'em a run for their money.

Rafael? Rafael?

You need to take
a breathalyzer test right now.

What?

You need
to take a breathalyzer test.

Someone reported you
drinking in your truck.

Raf, is this true?

No. No, that's ridiculous.

I can smell it on you, Raf.

It was only one drink.

It's never just one.

You're fired.No, no, no, no.
Please, Mr. Sinclair.

Look, I'll win.
Okay, Bold Spirit and me--

we have a good thing going.

You ride Bold Spirit drunk,

you could injure him.
You ever think of that?

Get him the hell out of here.RAFAEL: No!

No. Look...Come on.

How could you do this?

After all the races
I've won for you?!

You'll regret this,
you hear me?!

ANNOUNCER:
And they're off!

Slides Truly bursting through
the gate, taking an early lead.

Why Certainly moves
from the back of the pack

passing Genuine Affinity
on the outside!

Get your hands off me!

[indistinct chatter over P.A.]

This isn't fair!

Bold Spirit needs me!

[cap twisting]

[engine revving,
tires squealing]

[siren wailing,
fire truck horn honking]

FIREFIGHTER:
Put a hose on that!

[excited chatter continues]

If you think of anything else...

[tires squealing]

Bold Spirit. Is he okay?

Sorry, honey.
He's gone.

FIREFIGHTER: Get those hoses
to the back of the barn!

How did this happen?!

Sir, please stand back.

It's worse
than just Bold Spirit.

What do you mean?

Oh, my God. Oh, no. Lauren.

They found her in his stall.

Oh, no!

Can you tell me
what this woman was doing

in the barn so late at night?

Lauren is
Bold Spirit's trainer.

We were worried
he had colic.

We asked her to...

keep an eye on him overnight.WOMAN [over radio]:
Sarge?

Go ahead.

We found someone passed out
in a truck on the property.

[garbled radio transmission]

Sir?

Come on.
Out of the truck.

Sir.What's going on?

Sir, what's your name?

Rafael Ramirez.

You son of a bitch!

Hey, hey, hey!Oh.

I need you
to step back.

GARRETT:
How could you do this?!

[phone ringing]

[Izzy sighs]

Iz, it's your phone.

Mm, what?

[whispering]:
It's your phone that's ringing.

It's Rikers.What?

Hello?WOMAN [over phone]:
Collect call from Rikers.

[clears throat] Yeah, yeah,
I'll accept the charges.

[Rafael speaking Spanish]What's going on?

Raf, okay, okay, okay. Okay.
Calm down, slow down. Slow down.

[Rafael speaking Spanish]

Okay. Vamos a resolver esto.
Yo voy para allá ahora mismo.

Gracias.

What is it you were saying?

It's, uh, Raf, the kid
that I used to mentor.

Yeah. The jockey.
What's he doing at Rikers?

There was a fire, and
the police think that he did it.

Uh, I just...
I-I have to go help him.

You're not going there.
It's 4:00 in the morning.

No, I'm going,
and you're coming with me.

No, I'm not.

How long has it been
since you saw this kid?

[sighs] I don't know.
Uh, two years ago.

I don't know.
It's been way too long.

He did so much
to change his life around.

Whatever... God,
whatever they think he did,

there has to be some type
of mistake. I have to help him.

Yes, I know it's a mistake,
and you will help him,

but it is 4:00
in the morning,

and Rikers doesn't
accept visitors

until 8:00, so...

I can't just let Raf sit there
all alone.

I have to at least
try to get in.

What do you want me to do? Call
Taylor and have her take Astrid

so that we can go to Rikers
at 4:00 in the morning?

Thank you.

What?! [lock buzzes]

I didn't burn down that stable,
I swear.

We know you didn't.

[yawns]:
Whose stable was it?

The man I used to work for--

guy named Garrett Sinclair.BULL:
You used to work for him.

So what happened?
You got fired?

Yeah.

Right before the third
at Belport yesterday.

Why?

He thought I'd been drinking.

And had you?

Jason.RAFAEL:
No, it's...

it's okay.

Yes.

I got super drunk
last night.

Raf.

I'd been sober
for almost four years,

but, um, a couple months back,
Mariella broke things off.

I guess between the breakup

and getting fired,
I-I went on a...

a bit of a bender.

So, Rafael, someone is dead,
and the prosecution is gonna say

that you are a drunk
who got fired

and wanted revenge
on your former boss.

It's-it's not like that.

BULL: What's it like?Tell us.

Everything from the beginning.

Look, I-I know it sounds stupid,

but I went to Bridleright to beg
Mr. Sinclair for my job back.

It seemed like
a good idea

after a bottle of vodka.

But when I got there,

the stable was on fire.

What happened to your hands?

I tried to open the doors.

Bold Spirit was inside.
I had to save him.

But the heat--

it was too much.

It was... awful.

I-I couldn't...IZZY:
It's okay, Raf.

I'm sure you did
everything you could.

Why didn't you call for help?

My phone was dead.

The last thing I remember
was heading to the house

to get the Sinclairs.

But I-I must have driven
in a ditch or something,

because the next thing I know,

a police officer's pulling me
out of my truck.

Are you sure that's
the whole story?

Yes.

You-you know I'd never do this.

I believe you.
I'm here.

We'rehere to help.

BULL:
Here's what we're gonna do.

I am gonna call
the executive director

of the public defender's office
and see if he can help us.

What?

He owes me a favor,
and I'm sure

he can arrange one of his best
attorneys to be on your case.

Can I speak to you outside?

[sighs]

[lock buzzes]

I thought you came here
to help him.

Rafael needs someone
to negotiate a plea deal,

and that is what
public defenders do.

He doesn't need a plea deal.
He's innocent.

He needs you
to prove that.

This is a system case,
and the public defender's office

is gonna give him
a good defense.

Rafael has been
in the system his entire life.

I don't want him
in the system this time.

[sighs] You think he's guilty,
and that's why

you've been interrogating him
the whole time.

He was found drunk at
the scene of the crime.

He has a hell of a motive.

It certainly looks
like he did it.He didn't do it.

[sighs]

I know him.
He is not capable.

You know him sober,
but when a person is drunk,

they are capable of doing things
you never see coming.

No. I've known him
since he was 14.

I know his soul.

He's not vengeful.
He's not... he's not violent.

He doesn't have a case.
Plea deal's the best option.

No. His best option is for TAC
to prove that he's innocent.

And I'm willing to pay for it.

Oh, come on, Izzy.
This isn't about the money.No.

I am hiring TAC
and posting his bail,

and you are taking this case,
Jason, and that's the end of it.

I will see you inside.

Good talk.

♪

[clicks tongue]
Come on.

[horse sputters]Easy.

[clicks tongue]
Come on.

That smell--

I love it.

Maybe you and I aren't
picking up on the same scent.

Oh, it takes me back. My foster
mother liked to play the horses,

and she used to take me with her
to the track every Sunday.

Doesn't sound like
an appropriate place

to bring a kid.No, I loved it.

The-the beautiful horses,

the exciting races,
the betting strategy.

Look, not to brag,
but I know how to pick a winner.

Well, that's probably why
she kept bringing you then.

Oh, totally.
I helped

that woman pay off her house.

Nice, huh?If you like space.

It belongs to Garrett Sinclair.

His family's been raising
and training horses here

at Bridleright Farms
for generations.

Local fire department finished
their investigation yet?

Got the preliminary report
this morning.

There's no definitive proof
it was arson.

Great. What's our expert say?

Anything we can point to
to say this was an accident?

He's just finishing up.
We should head over...

GARRETT:
Can I help you?

Uh, you two go ahead.
I've got this.

Mind telling me who you are
and what you're doing here?

My name is Marissa Morgan.

I work with the legal team
representing Rafael Ramirez.

This is my property.
You need to leave.

We will get out of your hair
as quickly as possible.

I know this must be a very
difficult time for you.

Ugh. Difficult's
an understatement.

Lauren Parker was a good friend.

And Bold Spirit was... oh.

Bold Spirit was quite a horse.

At the Breeders' Cup last year,

he ran like he was shot
out of a cannon.

You follow racing?

Here and there.

Then you know.

Bold Spirit was
the kind of horse that...

only comes along
once in a lifetime.

Mind if I ask,
these tracks--

are they from Rafael's truck?

Yes.

Looks like he was driving
towards your house.

And your point is?

It seems to me, if Rafael
had set the fire,

he would have been driving
towards the exit,

not towards your house.

Ms. Morgan, do you have any idea

how drunk
Rafael was that night?

I understand he was inebriated.

He was barely conscious.

I doubt he had any idea

wherehe was driving.

Being an addict

and being an arsonist
aren't the same thing.

Listen, I've sat where you are
now, wanting to believe him.

But this isn't the first time
Rafael has screwed up.

Screwed up how?I've bailed him out of trouble

because of his drinking
more than once.

I wanted to help.

Look what that got me.

As soon
as your work is finished,

I'd appreciate you
seeing yourself off my farm.

Well, that looked
unpleasant.

The man lost a lot.

Any love from our expert?

Another inconclusive. Nothing
to say it was an accident,

and nothing to say it wasn't.

All I hear is, the
prosecution doesn't have

any direct evidence
that this was arson.

That's something
I can work with.

That is something,
but we may have another problem.

According to Mr. Sinclair,
this is not the first time

that Rafael's drinking
has gotten him in trouble.

CHUNK:
Your Honor, Mr. Ramirez's
previous conduct

is clearly inadmissible under
the prior bad acts exclusion.

There are many exceptions
to that rule.

None of which apply here.

The prosecutor is saying
that because my client

got drunk and broke
the law before,

that he must have
done it again here now.

It is the very definition

of inadmissible
character evidence.

On two separate occasions,

the defendant assaulted someone
while intoxicated.

This pattern of vengeful
behavior is highly probative

to the issue of intent,
Your Honor.

Two bar fights do not equate

to intentionally
setting a barn on fire

and killing a person
and a horse.

MARTIN:
Your Honor, these incidents

show an escalation that's...

Hold on, Ms. Martin.

Are we boring you, Mr. Ramirez?

[clears throat]

Mr. Ramirez,
I'm talking to you.

Oh, my client is-is merely
nervous, Your Honor.

He meant no disrespect.

Does your client speak?

Uh, I'm sorry, Your Honor.

I'm just nervous,
like Mr. Palmer said.

I believe these prior acts
are probative as to intent.

I will allow them.

Thank you, Your Honor.Mr. Ramirez,

you stand accused
of a very serious crime.

You might want
to pay more attention.

IZZY:
Mr. Ramirez? Mr. Ramirez?

That judge might as well
have called him "Señor."

Izzy, it was odd, absolutely,

but you have
to understand...No, no.

My Tía Rosa
with her collection

of porcelain
cat figurines is odd.

This was outrageous.

He's racist.

We don't know that.Oh. I do.

[whirring]

That judge is biased
against Raf,

and you have
to get him off the case.

Just like that? Remove a judge?

Well, Raf is never gonna get

a fair trial with that jerk,
and you know it.

Well, it is
incredibly difficult

to get a judge
kicked off for prejudice.

Well, so? We got to try.

I'm the only person that's ever
been in Raf's corner,

and I'm not going down
without a fight.

I get that, but...

I said, I get that,
but if we make the accusation,

and we don't succeed
in getting Judge Grant removed,

we still have to try the case,

except this time with a judge
who's very pissed off with us.

So there's nothing we could do?

Well, Taylor is looking into
Judge Grant's previous rulings

to see if there's a pattern
of prejudice,

especially
against Latinx defendants,

but it's gonna take some time.

Okay, and until then?

We start telling our story.

What happened to Lauren Parker

and Bold Spirit
was undoubtedly tragic.

It was also
a tragic accident.

You won't hear any evidence

proving that this fire started
as a result of arson

because the prosecution
doesn't have any.

And you'll hear no evidence

whatsoever that Mr. Ramirez

started that fire
because... he didn't.

How's Chunk doing?

Uh, it's a strong
opening argument.

[phone chimes]

You waiting for something?

[sighs]
I texted Henri again
this morning.

I was just hoping...

He still hasn't
talked to you?

No, not since... you know.

I'm so sorry.
I feel so responsible.

What's done is done.
You and I are good.

I just...

I hate that he thinks
so poorly of me.

I didn't even get
to explain myself.

So explain yourself.

How? He's not responding to me.Come on.

You figured out a way
to make Bull listen to you,

and now you're a partner in TAC.

Think you can figure out a way
to get through to Henri.

[phone buzzing and ringing]

Oh.

Hey, Danny. What's up?

Oh, no.

Lauren Parker was Mr. Ramirez's
colleague and friend.

And Bold Spirit was his partner.
He had absolutely

no motive
to harm either one of them.

MARISSA:
Bull, uh,

you need to go out in the hall.

Talk to Danny.

Chunk hasn't finished
his opening statements.

Go now.

He never would have

intentionally set that fire.

No one did.[whispering]:
Where are you going?

It was an accident.

What's going on?

Sorry to pull you out of court,

but the police just executed

a search warrant on
a storage unit in Rafael's name.

What does that mean?

They're looking for something.

Yeah. An accelerant.I thought

the fire experts didn't find
any accelerant in the barn.

Well, the local fire department
amended their report.

They just got back some labs

that identified traces
of acetone

in samples taken
from the stable.

And let me guess.

They found acetone
in Rafael's storage unit.

Splashes of it on the floor.

As if it was stored
there, and now...

It's gone.

Why'd you leave?
I was killing it in there.

Yes, you were.
Great opening.

And now you're gonna have
to make the jury forget it.

What are you talking about?

Well, you told 'em
the fire was an accident,

but now the prosecution
has proof that it was arson.

[sighs]

And our whole defense
just went up in flames.

So, why did they find acetone
residue in your storage unit?

My ex used to leave some of her
stuff there from her nail salon,

but I haven't been
to that storage unit in months.

We can't prove that.
Place is self-access.

So, what does
this mean now?

It means that the jury
is gonna have a hard time

seeing you didn't
start that fire.

But I didn't.

[sighs]

You don't believe me, do you?Look, it doesn't matter

if I don't believe you.

It matters what we can prove.

That means
you don't believe me.[sighs]: Raf.

And if you don't believe me,
the jury sure as hell won't.

Hey.
I'm going to prison,
aren't I?

We don't know that.Why did I have

to get drunk that day?
Why am I such a screwup?Calm down.

Hey, hey!

Look at me.

You need to keep it together,
especially when we're in court.

You never wanted
a drink that bad?[sighs]

Yeah.

I know moments of weakness
can trigger negative actions.

Yeah.

You got to stay sober.

When was the last time
you went to a meeting?

Has it been a long time?

A while.Okay.

Most important thing in
your life right now is sobriety.

So after court, you go?

I will.

Good.

I made a promise to Izzy.

Oh. Well, then, yeah,
in that case,

God help you
if you don't keep it.

I'm sorry, but Operation
Judgy Judge was a bust.

Operation Judgy Judge?

My deep dive into Judge Grant.

I checked his sentencing history
of Latino

versus non-Latino defendants
and found no evidence

of racial bias.None at all?

In fact, he's slightly

more lenient towards Latinos.

I would've bet money
that he was biased

based on how he talked
to Rafael.

Maybe Rafael reminds him
of someone from his past.

I can look into that.

No, I don't want to send you
on a wild goose chase.

Sometimes you get a bad ref.

You still have to play to win.

I think our best move is
to find someone else

who had motive
to burn down that barn.

Oh, I already did that.

What?

What'd you find?

Rafael said
I'd regret firing him.

He wanted to hurt me.

Setting that fire,
killing Bold Spirit,

was his way of doing that.
I don't know if he even

realized Lauren was in the barn.

It's still hard for me
to believe she's gone, too.

Thank you, Mr. Sinclair.

Nothing further, Your Honor.

Your witness, Mr. Palmer.

[exhales]

CHUNK:
Mr. Sinclair,

six months ago,
another one of your horses,

Gold Rush, died prematurely,
is that correct?

Um, yes.

Actually,
he was my husband's horse.

I got Gold Rush for Noah
when he retired

from his veterinary
practice. We were

both devastated by his loss.

And did you file an insurance
claim upon Gold Rush's death?

Yes. It might seem strange

to insure a pet,
but Gold Rush

wasn't just a pet.
He was a thoroughbred racehorse.

Very expensive.

And what was the payout
from Gold Rush's policy?

$1 million, but

no amount of money could

replace him in Noah's heart.

Noah was crazy about that horse.

Whose side are you on?

CHUNK:
What about Bold Spirit?

Champion racer.

You must have taken out

a much bigger policy for him.

Objection.
Leading the witness.I'll rephrase.

Please do.

What's the insurance payout
going

to be for Bold Spirit?

$5 million.

[gallery murmuring]

GARRETT:
But that doesn't

even begin to cover
what we would have earned

had he kept racing.

You mean,
had he kept winning, right?

Bold Spirit
won the last

seven of his stakes races.

People were talking about his
chances at the Triple Crown.

Sure,
but a winning streak can end

just as quickly as it began.

Perhaps you were trying
to guarantee a windfall,

and so you killed the horse
yourself.

Objection, Your Honor.
Counsel is testifying.

He sure is. I object, too.

[quietly]:
You object?

Excuse me, Your Honor?

I've let your fishing expedition
go on long enough.

Your cross is over, Mr. Palmer.

Due respect of the court,
Your Honor, but I'm not finished

with Mr. Sinclair.Yes, you are.

CHUNK:
Your Honor, you cannot
deny me the opportunity

to cross-examine
a prosecution witness.

I can, and I did.
Take a seat.

No.

Not until

I'm finished.

This witness is excused.

Counsel in my chambers. Now.

[gallery murmuring]

[whispering]:
What's the problem?

Well, I guess
Rafael isn't the only one

the judge has it
in for now.

[whimpers]Mr. Palmer,

your treatment
of that witness was repugnant.

Garrett Sinclair
is the victim here.

Garrett Sinclair is a witness
and a possible suspect.

Mr. Sinclair didn't just lose

his employee.
He lost his beloved horse.

I won't have you badgering him
in my courtroom.

CHUNK:
Your Honor,

respectfully,
Lauren Parker and Bold Spirit

are the only two victims
in this entire case.

That man is in mourning.
Don't you have any compassion?

I have compassion
for my client

who's been wrongfully accused

and deserves the best defense
that I can give him.

GRANT:
I can't even imagine
how devastated I'd be

if anything like that happened
to my Lucy.

If I'm not allowed to continue
my cross-examination,

I'm going to file an immediate
interlocutory appeal!

We're not gonna do that.

And I want
to apologize profusely

for our insensitivity here.

It will never
happen again,

Your Honor.
Mr. Palmer, shall we?

[door opens]

What the hell was that? You just
cut me off at the knees.

Did you see his dog?What?

Lucy? Judge Grant's dog.

The man's an animal lover.

And he thinks
that Rafael killed a horse.

That's why he's being
so hard on him.

He thinks it's worse
to kill an animal than a person?

I don't know
if he thinks it's worse,

but the man's got
a soft spot. He's...

polluting the jury right now
with his contempt for Rafael.

If we want to win them over,
we need to win him over first.

Shall I go back in there
and sweet-talk him some more?

No, we got to put Rafael on
the stand, and he has to testify

about how much he loves horses.

And the judge will never believe

that he would burn down a barn
with a horse in it.

Rafael's fragile. You think
he's gonna hold up on cross?

Better than he's gonna hold up
in prison.

[footsteps approaching]

Forgive me, but
we're closing.

I promise I won't keep you long.

Marissa,
what are you doing here?

You said the reason
you didn't tell me

you were still married
is because

you didn't want to burden a new
relationship with old wounds.

And the irony is
that I burdened our relationship

with my old wounds.

I-I'm not sure I understand.

I consider myself
to be a smart woman,

but I have been deceived

by men quite a few times.

Well, we've all been lied to
at some point.

A con man stole all of my money.

My ex-husband nearly got me
sent to prison for his crimes.

And that was
after I divorced him

and married him
for a second time.

I'm sorry that happened to you.

My point is
that all of this has left me

a little wary of things
that seem too good to be true.

That's why
I investigated you.

I see.

It wasn't fair for me

to project my past onto you.

So...

please forgive me.

Henri...

Um...

Oh.

You're busy.

Marissa...Uh,

I'm interrupting,
and I'm gonna go.

Okay.

[gavel bangs]

Horses saved my life.

Can you please tell
the court what you mean

when you say
they saved your life?

I moved to this country
from Puerto Rico

when I was 12 years old.

I didn't speak
the same language

as the other kids
at school, didn't

have any friends.
Home wasn't any easier.

My father was abusive.

Well, that sounds like
a lot for a boy to carry.

How did horses come
into your life?

I-I got assigned a mentor at the
Puerto Rican Community Center.

My mentor-- she did
all sorts of things with me.

One day, she took me to
these stables for a trail ride.

Horses-- they don't care
what country you come from,

what language you speak,
or even if your dad hits you.

They just need you to
love and care for them.

And when you do,
they love you in return.

CHUNK:
And this love
you have for horses--

it led to a career
with them, right?

Yes.

I mucked the stalls and

groomed the horses
in exchange for riding lessons.

It came pretty naturally to me,

and, uh, the owner
of the stables-- he noticed.

He sponsored my training
to become a jockey.

I never could've
dreamed I'd spend

my life working with horses.

He's doing well.

Extremely well.

CHUNK:
Mr. Ramirez,

did you set the fire
that killed Lauren Parker

and Bold Spirit?

No.

No. Lauren was my friend.

And she was always
very good to me.

Bold Spirit was my partner.

I loved him.

I can't believe
that they're gone.

And I couldn't live with myself

if I had been the one
who killed them.

Thank you, Mr. Ramirez.

No further questions,
Your Honor.

Let's, uh,

take a brief recess
for lunch and

pick up with Ms. Martin's
cross-examination

when we return.

[groans softly]

Hey, we need to talk
to Rafael. Now.

Let me see that bottle.What? Why?

Have you been drinking?

No.

Let me see the bottle.Hey... it's just water.

Vodka.

Look, it was only

a few sips to calm my nerves,
you know?

It's not like
I'm drunk or anything.

Bull, can I speak
to you for a second?

You stay here.

We can't put him back
on the stand today.Agreed.

Ask for a recess until tomorrow.

On what grounds?Well, I don't know.

Tell the judge he ate
a bad shrimp or something.

We can't lie to a judge.

We don't know it's a lie.
He could have had a bad shrimp.

It's a lie, and if Rafael
was drinking on the stand,

I'm obligated
to inform the judge

that his testimony's unreliable.

Unreliable? Now wait a second.

We have no reason to believe

that Rafael wasn't
telling the truth.

He did not
perjure himself.

I'm an officer of the court,
and I have a duty, Bull.

What about your duty to Rafael?

When this jury finds out
that he was drunk on the stand,

they're gonna hate him, and you
will have jeopardized this case.

Rafael jeopardized his own case.

You want to lie to a judge,
that's fine,

but you'll have to find
another attorney to do it.

In light
of Mr. Palmer's disclosure

regarding his client's
intoxication,

I must ask you,
members of the jury,

to disregard

the testimony
we just heard from Mr. Ramirez.

IZZY:
Help me understand how
you can do this to yourself.

I'm sorry, Izzy, I...

You have all these people
here to help you.

I'm here to help.

Why can't you help yourself?

I-I don't know.

This is your life
on the line, Raf.

It's the only one you got.I-I know.

I, I-I know.

Do you remember what I told you
the first time we met?

Yeah, of course.

Tú eres un rey, Rafael.

Vaya con la cabeza bien alta.

You are a king.

Now go with your head held high.

Well, we tried it
your way. Now what?

I don't know.
I'll come up with something.

Make sure he gets
home okay, will you?

Yeah.

How can he show up
to the stand drunk?

I don't understand.
He has so much left to lose.

Well, that is exactly
what happened.

He was under
too much pressure.

Drinking is
his coping mechanism.

You know, when I first
met Raf, he was arrested

for shoplifting
a candy at the bodega.

And... [sighs]
he was so ashamed,

and just seeing that same shame
on his face today just...

it gutted me.

And yet you are
still here by his side.

Is it bad that I really
want a drink right now?

[whispering]:
I'm glad you said it first.

Hey. Sorry to hear
about Rafael today.

Yeah. We started out
having a slim chance,

and now we have
a slim chance in hell.

Bull have any ideas
how to spin this?

No. He's passed that
squarely onto me.

So where are you at?I think our only hope

of winning is by pointing
the finger at someone else.

What? Didn't you already try
to point the finger

at Garrett Sinclair?Yeah.

You know, he said something
interesting on the stand

that got me thinking.
He said

that Bold Spirit was worth
more alive than he was dead.

And if Bold Spirit is winning
all of these races

and making all of this money,

there's got to be some
sore losers out there, right?

DANNY:
Well, yeah, there are plenty.

Some of them are
especially sore

because they don't think
he won fair and square.

There's a rumor
that Lauren Parker--

the trainer who died in the
fire-- was doping her horses.

Well, if Sinclair's rivals
think that he cheated to win,

robbing them of all of
that money and all that glory,

that's motive right there.

Sure, but it's gonna be hard

to get those old money folks
to testify.

They don't like airing

their dirty laundry.

Well, not to outsiders,
but there is someone

these horse people love
to complain to.

My name is Alex Garves.

I'm the director of the American
Thoroughbred Racing Guild.

CHUNK:And in your position
as director,

do you field complaints

about racehorses being given
performance-enhancing drugs?

I do.Have you ever received
complaints about

Bold Spirit being doped?

Yes. We've received
a number of allegations

that Bridleright Farms

and their trainer

Lauren Parker

were giving Bold Spirit
performance-enhancing drugs.

And did you investigate
those allegations?

Objection, Your Honor.
Relevance?

CHUNK:
Your Honor, the Defense

has the right to present others

with motives
for killing Bold Spirit

and Lauren Parker.

I'll allow it.GARVES:
We tested

Bold Spirit for the presence
of drugs in his system,

but none was found.

Did that stop
the complaints?No.

The unfortunate reality is

that drug testing
can't keep up

with the availability
of new drugs on the market.

The other owners were certain
that Garrett Sinclair

and his trainer
Lauren Parker were cheating,

but we couldn't prove it.

CHUNK:
And did that make

the other owners angry?Very much so.

There's a lot at stake
in these races.

It's not just bragging rights.

There's millions
in purse winnings, but

the real money's
in stud fees.

Stables can make
over a half million dollars

for a champion's stud fee.

And a horse

can stud almost
a hundred times a year.

Wow. That's a lot of money.

[laughs]
Maybe even enough to kill for.

Thank you, Mr. Garves.

No further questions,
Your Honor.

Chunk made some hay
with the jury.

Yeah, but it looks
like Garrett Sinclair

would like to stick
a pitchfork in his eye.

Bridleright Farms has been
in my family for generations.

I'm proud to uphold
its legacy

of excellence
and also integrity.

Which is why I have not,
nor would I ever,

allow my horses to use
performance-enhancing drugs.

He's laying it on
awfully thick.You think?

I find it unconscionable
that the reputation

of my trusted trainer
Lauren Parker is being attacked

in the wake
of her tragic passing.

You see that?Hmm. What?

Watch Noah's body language.

Here.

...is being attacked
in the wake

of her tragic passing.

You see how it changed

when Garrett started talking
about Lauren?

He took his hand away.And crossed his arms.

Classic indicators
of hurt and anger.

Noah doesn't like Lauren.

So what are you saying?

We may have finally
found someone else

who had a motive
to burn down that barn.

Need some help, ma'am?

I do. Thanks for stopping.

I know a thing or two
about cars. Let me take a look.

Well, actually, my car is fine,

but I do need your help
with something else.

What? Who-who are you?

My name is Danny James.

I work with Rafael Ramirez's
defense team.

I figured you'd be more open
to talking to me out here

than up at the ranch.

Look, lady, I don't want
to get involved.

I just want
to ask you a question

about your boss's husband
Noah Sinclair.

Do you have any reason

to believe
that he disliked Lauren Parker?

I'm not talking to you about
the Sinclairs. I need my job.

Well, the word is already out

that your bosses were
doping their horses.

I mean, how much longer
do you think they'll be able

to stay
in the horse racing business?

No idea, but I'm holding on
to my job as long as I can.

I know you like
to help people.

You wouldn't have stopped
for me if you didn't.

I just wonder how
it's gonna sit with you

if Rafael goes to prison
for something he didn't do

when you could have
helped save him.

Remember how the Sinclairs filed

an insurance claim on that
other horse earlier this year?

Gold Rush?Yeah, Noah Sinclair's horse.

Well, it turns out, Noah blamed
Lauren Parker for its death.

A stable hand overheard Noah
and Garrett fighting about it.

Noah was screaming
that Garrett had to fire Lauren.

Hmm. Do we know
what killed the horse?

TAYLOR:
The insurance claim lists

cause of death
as renal failure.

Performance-enhancing
drugs can wreak

havoc on kidneys.

If Lauren was doping the horse
without Noah's knowledge,

and it wound up dead,
maybe Noah wanted revenge.

You think he killed a woman
to avenge a horse?

Well, Raf said Noah was
crazy about that horse.

Some people love
their pets even more

than they love
their families.

Think about Judge Grant.True.

But why kill
Bold Spirit, too?

MARISSA:
An eye for an eye.

He wanted
to punish Garrett

for allowing Lauren
to dope his horse.

But why would he let
Bold Spirit burn alive?

That's a brutal way to die.Maybe he didn't.

Check this out.

And what is this?

A prescription monitoring
database.

Noah's a retired
veterinarian.

A month ago, he ordered a case
of sodium pentothal,

which is used
to euthanize horses.

He put the horse down
before the fire?

We think so.

CHUNK:Or maybe he bought that
to use in case he needed

to put a horse
out of his misery.

Look, there's no way
we can prove

that he used it
on Bold Spirit now anyway.

There is, actually, if you don't
mind getting your hands dirty.

I don't understand.
What is this?

It's a motion
to exhume Bold Spirit.

Dig him up?
Are you kidding me?

They can't do this, can they?

I'm afraid so.
Judge Grant signed the motion.

Bold Spirit died a horrible
death because of your client,

and now you won't even
let him rest in peace.

We have reason to believe

that Bold Spirit didn't die
in the fire.

What are you talking about?

His body was found
along with Lauren's.

We believe that he was
euthanized with sodium pentothal

before the fire
was started.

Sodium pentothal
is a controlled substance.

How would Rafael get
his hands on it?

He didn't.

But your husband did.

[laughing]

This is insane.GARRETT:
First you tried

to pin this on me.

Then you go
after Lauren's reputation.

Now you're accusing Noah.

You're just grasping at straws.

MARISSA:
Your husband held Lauren Parker

responsible for
Gold Rush's death.

He asked you to fire her,
but you didn't.

You know your husband.

Do you think
he'd just accept that?

You asked Lauren
to stay in the barn

with Bold Spirit that night.

Garrett, this is insane.

You know I wouldn't
have hurt anyone.

Did Bold Spirit even have colic?

Go ahead. Dig.

[engine starts]

Got it. Good news. Thanks.

Noah Sinclair was charged with
the murder of Lauren Parker.

And Rafael?

The judge dismissed the charges.
He even apologized to Rafael.

And TAC brings another winner
across the finish line.

Giddy-up!

No, Taylor, please.Oh, you're just

jealous you didn't
think of it first.[knocking]

Uh... may I interrupt?

I'm gonna go somewhere
that's... not here.

♪ Somehow I wound up
right here where I belong... ♪

This is a surprise.

I didn't expect
to see you again.

♪ Waiting here all alone...

I was thinking
about what you said,

and, um, you didn't know
my history,

and I didn't know yours.

I should have asked.

I could have asked, too.

So?

I like being with you...
Marissa.

♪ So easy...

Maybe we could we put our pasts
in the past and start over?

♪ It can be so easy...

That's a lot of pasts.

♪ So easy...

Then maybe we could,
um, just, uh,

stay in the present.

♪ It can be so easy

I'd like that.

♪ Feels like home

[clears throat]
Don't care.[chuckles]

♪ Somehow I wound up
right here where I belong. ♪

I-I don't know how to thank you.

Get help. That's all
the thanks I need.

I'm going
to a meeting tonight.

Well, that's
a good start.

And I-I've got
an interview tomorrow

at another stable.

It's just as a stable hand
for now,

but I'll be around horses,
and that's all I want.

And that's what
I want for you, too.

Dr. Bull.

Thank you.

You take care
of yourself, Raf.

Do you think
he'll stay sober?

Well, that is
entirely up to him.

You did everything you could
to give him a shot.

You believed in him
when no one else would.

Oh, yeah. I was right
and you were wrong.

Oh, boy.

I believe I proved
him innocent,

which should count
for something.

Oh, yeah, sure,
but I still think

I should get a discount
on my bill,

given that I was so right
and you were so wrong.

The bill.Ah, here we go.

The bill. I believe
you should buy me dinner.

Burgers and fries?

[chuckles] You're not
getting off that easy.
