Formerly in Family Law...

My name is Abigail, and I'm a schm alcoholic.

No lawyer in town will touch you, not even your own company.

Daniel and Lucy Svensson, your brother and sister.

I won't explain mine 40-year-old boomerang child

on my first date. Go!

Nice to have you home.

Home, like that.

Since you came, I hate meeting at the office.

Sad to have to work with you,

but it is a small price to pay for partnership.

You asked for it. I made Daniel a partner. 13

but don't force the rest of us

to redefine the legal definition of marriage.

She also says that trans people

are mentally ill and attention seeking.

Great interview!

Except there, where you date crystal steele.

She was...

- ...this morning. - Addr.

When you kissed Lucy, did you know she was married then?

- It is over. - Yes it is.

By the way, I'm pregnant.

Who is Felicity?

Frank.

And you must be Felicity.

Have a good evening.

I did not know, where else would I go.

I am sorry.

I would like to think better of Frank.

But he is just like the others, controlled by his joystick.

That's so selfish!

The worst kind of failure.

if i ruled the world I would follow the Old Testament.

I would silence all the frauds up against a wall and stone them to death!

Who are you, and why are you wearing my pajamas?

Mother.

It's Lucy.

- Abby's sister. - Half sister.

It was you,he got with his secretary.

May I ask, why have you spent the night at my home?

I'll let Lucy update you.

FRANK BIANCHI 45 MISSED CALLS

So what? Came.

I'm dating a famous person from TV.

Let me do a few shows.

You will be amazing.

You are infuriatingly brilliant.

It's the first time, I don't have to put on makeup myself.

Or provide lighting or editing. I have a team!

Let's celebrate your debut with dinner at CinCin.

Perfect. I will come to your office.

You still don't want me with the family?

It is complicated.

At some point we have to simplify it,

for I will not disappear.

Svensson and Associates. Who do you want to talk to?

Morning, Daniel.

Craig.

- Daniel Craig! - "Svensson and Svensson."

When you answer the phone.

Of course. Congratulations again!

- Morning, Mrs. Bianchi. - Morning, Nina.

- Why is Craig...? - I adopted him.

He is mine.

Then there is a sentient being,who loves you as you are.

You must write a message about the class action.

Jerri, book a partner meeting.

Cecil, contact IT. We must have updated company logo.

And Nina, you must remove your personal items from your table.

Am I fired?

Of course not.

But you are the first point of contact for our clients.

We must have a professional image.

No, he doesn't see the irony.

The boardroom in ten. New client. Do not be late.

He falls down when he has marked his territory. 81

My husband, Bert, died a year and a half ago.

It hurts us.

He left one morning and never came home.

The police found his car on the Fraser River.

They found his clogs on the bank.

His wallet was still in the car.

The only thing they didn't find was Bert.

Norma, I can't imagine how are you.

Do you need help with his estate?

No. Not at all.

No, I watch a lot of cat videos.

Don't we all do that?

A friend of minesent me this yesterday.

I do not follow.

It's Bert.

I'm sure of that.

My dead husbands are very much alive.

It was Bert's laugh.

And look at that birthmark.

I think, it looked like an octopus.

Normal...

We feel for you, but the chance that it's him…

Wait...

Our silver wedding. See for yourself.

Let's assume it's him.

If he is alive, then why doesn't he contact you?

Yeah, well, okay.

Bert and I had a good marriage.

I worked in insurance,Bert was independent.

He was an inventor, always had new fantastic ideas.

His specialty was "all-in-one".

He invented a cane.

It had everything: Barometer, thermometer, compass,

metal detector, bear bell, shoe horn.

It could even pick up trash!

His ideas were brilliant,

but never right for time or place.

I saved up so we could take a "Freedom 55" tour.

We wanted to buy a used public van, cross Canada from coast to coast,

but when he disappeared,the creditors started calling.

He had spent all our savings

and left me behind with a mountain of debt.

I lost my job due to stress.

I lost the house so now I live in a basement room

and works as a receiver for Bulk Bonanza. Pardon.

Time for my blood pressure pills.

Another of Bert's inventions, medicinal arm.

There's an app for that...

Norma, you imply, that Bert faked his own death?

I don't know what to believe.

Therefore, I hopedYou could help find him.

Really? Was it the best you could do?

She got the names of three detectives.

It is very likely

that her wretched husband faked his death.

Even if he did, then pseudo-murder is not criminal.

It is not to be a miserable man. Hi Frank.

Svensson and Associates.

How dare you come here?

I must have called 100 times.

- 48. - I wanted to follow you last night,

but Nico called and wanted to be picked up.

Ruined our sonyour secret meeting with felicity?

Abby, nothing would have happened.

I just had to see hers Powerpoint presentation.

What was it called?

"Destroy a Marriage, Five Simple Steps"?

You are mad. I understand, but we must stand together.

- You're moving home. - Do you still think it will happen?

When I see you, I want to scratch your eyes out!

You can't do that to our children.

- I can not? - Bad choice of words.

Bad choices across the board!

How often do I have to say it? It was one drink. 156

Morning, Frank! How are my grandchildren?

- Well. Fine. - Well.

If you want it, I can stand it the wall, hand you a few stones.

Oh. Imagine if I broke the windows. It would cost a fortune.

I still don't know why i did it.

I'm not a psychologist, but it seems pretty obvious.

Does the daughter inherit the father?

So much power I won't blame Harry.

You lost your mother at a fragile age.

It must be difficultto bond with someone

if now you lose them too.

It's pretty good.

So it's over with Asha?

Yes.

Do you want Maggie back?

I forgave your father the first time he cheated on me.

It was the fourth and fifth time, it became difficult.

You are a good person, Lucy.

You are a good person, who did a bad thing.

I also had to remove my stuff.

His living dog must be here,

but not my panda stapler?

Cecil?

Do you have a moment?

It was super easy.

I said I wanted to chat

He immediately returned.

Where is he?

Stuttgart, Germany.

His name is Gunter.

Too bad you can't get people handed over for being assholes.

Maybe that can give Norma peace.

GUNTER CONNECTING...

- Shut up! - Hello.

I am happy for, that you want to use my video!

So are we. When did you shoot that video?

Last month when I was on vacation in your beautiful region.

That was part of it my Michael Bublé tour.

Where did you shoot the video?

- Was it recorded on a hash farm? - 65 kilometers from Vancouver.

If he's here he hides openly.

DANIEL: WHERE ARE YOU? MUST USE THAT NOTICE

Before we approach, maybe we should make a plan.

We don't know how he will react.

Normal...

Normal!

Bert!

You are alive! I can't believe you're alive!

Quiet now...

You gave me so much trouble.

I don't know what you're talking about!

Ezra? What's going on?

Don't know, Leanne.I've never seen that woman before.

What are you talking about, Bert? I am your wife!

Firstly My name is Ezra Warner.

Stop that bullshit, Bert.

You faked your death

and left your wife with a huge debt.

It's crazy. You have the wrong person.

- When did you two meet? - A year ago?

He answered my ad about an assistant.

Let me guess. He wanted to be paid in cash?

Did he show you any ID?

Opened a bank account?

You must believe me, Lama, I do not know them. 224

I held a funeral for you.

- I mourned you. - Get lost. I'm calling the police.

Better call a lawyer,

for you owe my client a load of money!

Oh no. Allow me.

“I'm a partner now and you have conscious ignored my authority."

I found Norma's miserable husband,

which gives us a new client, so, welcome.

Bert Choi's driver's license, loaned by Norma.

Find out everything you can about him or Leende Græs farm

or his screen name, Ezra Warner.

The plan has changed.

I'm not moving in in the basement apartment.

We have decided together that it is the best.

- We need a little more time. - Do you think we are stupid?

It's just code language for "Mother squawked again".

What new horrors will we find on YouTube?

Sophia. Then that's enough.

Don't be so hard on your mother.

He betrayed you.

He just can't cope to be the rogue.

He chimed in, he must take responsibility.

It is indeed a difficult situation.

I'm just saying, that it must also be difficult for him.

Do you heathens have some kind of club?

Is there a loyalty program, or is it illogical?

Abigail.

At least Frank wasn't unfaithful, when I was pregnant.

I wasn't unfaithful after Maggie got pregnant.

How long do you want? nase on our hospitality?

Abigail Jane Calliope!

Your sister's judgment failed for a moment.

A moment?

It went on for months!

I have lost my appetite.

Morning, everyone.

They spelled your name correctly.

Are you responsible for it?

SVENSSON and RØV

My client, which we for convenience will call "Bert Choi".

Because that's his name.

Has lost all memory about his past.

Are you claiming amnesia?

In fact, it is psychiatric term "dissociative fugue".

It is common for people with fugue to disappear and start a new life.

I have a simpler diagnosis.

It is called lying, deception.

Say what you will, Mr. Krol.

to repay his wife for all his debts.

Forgive my junior colleagues lack of insight

in basic family law.

We will make him pay half as family debt.

I know the law

but if this man is decent…

Listen, Ally McBeal. He can not pay what you claim he owes.

Claiming?

It's not Pizzagate.

This is well-documented debt in his name.

Understood.But my client has nothing to give.

I apologize for any inconvenience, i may have caused

but I'm just a farm worker.

And Mr. Choi would like to begin a formal divorce process.

We will send the request this afternoon.

Norma, I would like to apologize…

Because you didn't get her anything?

For my colleague's unprofessional behavior.

Excuse me.

I liked it better when he was dead.

Ezra Warner invented the first can opener in 1858.

Bert Choi has applied formany patents over the years.

Laughing Grass is a small organic entrepreneur,

just a few years old and owned by Leanne Porter.

And...

the company has recently applied for patent

on something they call Port-a-Pothead.

Look.

It's an all-in-one for hash smokers.

There is room for your grass and space for cigarette paper.

Even a built-in grinder.

And here's your pipe.

Ezra invented it.

It is an all-in-one…

Another lame invention.

They have set aside 100,000 of the cackling invention 313

Hello. Welcome to Bulk Bonanza.

Hello. Welcome to Bulk Bonanza.

- Hi... Oh, hi. - Normal.

Bert stands to make a lot of money on one of his inventions.

My last optimism is gone.

In a past life I was a personal injury lawyer.

And really good.

So now you have to listen.

We're suing Bert's ass

to deliberately cause emotional harm,

and we get the lying ski…

bad fellow to pay you everything,what he owes you, and more.

Will you give me one of those?

Take them all, stretchy pants troll!

No. Zero putt.

We get nothing unless we win.

Says the pro bono man.

And it isn't on par with the class action.

There is no gain from it.

Now let me just do it.

- I gave you the class action. - Why is it so important to you?

Norma loved Bert. She believed him.

Supported him. Trust him.

Now he feigns amnesia, as if their lives never happened. 338

Fine. But you do as Daniel says.

And we're having a meeting with the other party's lawyer,

in case we can avoid a lawsuit.

Thank you for purchasing longer shorts!

You don't have to thank me. Thanks Crystal.

- Does she seem...? - Angrier than usual?

Yes.

Good thing the patent is registered under Laughing Grass,

but it clearly is Bert's invention.

Here is the all-in-one makeup applicator.

Here is the all-in-one kitchen tool.

You cannot prove intentional damage.

One, the defendant must act intentionally.

Two, the defendant's conduct must be extreme and unheard of.

And three, the behavior must be cause of four,

severe emotional distress.

Bert's actions when he disappeared, is all.

You can't prove that he tried to fake his death.

Perhaps Bert planned to return home to his wife that day.

Maybe he slipped by the river and fell in.

We dont know.

- Bert knows. - But he doesn't.

I guess you don't believe itthat crap about "dissociative fugue"?

Yes I do.

And cases like this must reach a very high threshold so…

See you in court.

Yannick. Do you mean it?

Is it because I don't moved to your company?

Control your ego.

I had to take this.

Partnership.

This is my chance to develop the company.

It's Harry Svensson.

Do you think he will escape? the slightest control?

The sign says it all.

SVENSSON and RØV

We must have one professional assessment.

Strengthen our case.

Yes, damn it.

We studied dissociative fugue at Stanford.

I have no direct experience.

You still don't get that, because Bert is lying.

It is often caused of severe trauma or stress.

My uncle was caught in a brothel.

Had no idea, how did it end up there.

There is a famous one history from the 50s.

A Lawrence Bader disappeared on a fishing trip.

He was declared dead, but eight years later

he showed up in nebraska,now as Fritz Johnson,

with no memory of his past life.

It only proves that liars idiotic men are like cockroaches,

they permeate the story.

A team of psychiatrists examined him.

They determined that he was telling the truth.

- They were cheated. - Maybe.

It is difficult to distinguish between fugue and simulation.

- Fingering. - This guy is definitely fingering.

Well! You are all here.

I want to invite you to family dinner tomorrow night.

- You too, Jerri. - Why? 401

Did he mean me too?

No.

Thank you, Pam. Anyone else want to share?

I think Abby should.

That's not how it works, Pam.

You've been coming here for months without saying a word.

You just sit there and looks down on the rest of us.

She says something.

Fine.

Bites.

Where should I start?

Where we always start. By recognizing that you are an alcoholic.

And not "schm-alcoholic".

Okay.

My name is Abby and...

I'm an alcoholic.

Hi, Abby.

But I have worked hard

to get better,

because I want to my family back

More than anything else.

And I thought it was too, my husband wanted

until I caught him in the elevator of a hotel

with another woman.

He says nothing would have happened, but honestly.

And since that happened, I always want a drink.

I think to myself:

I have done all this,

and for what?

What is it?

I give them to mother, so she can hang them up at Jo-Jo's.

You best, Nico! Don't you get it?

She ruined everything. Again!

- She's a motherfucker. - Stop!

You didn't see her face when she did they text on dad's old mobile.

Is Lucy still sleeping?

Thank you for the little miracles.

Well, well.

Wow. What is it?

A list of the five leading divorce lawyers in the city,

except your father.

I can arrange short meetings.Then Frank can't use any of them.

No one talks about divorce.

- Irrelevant. It is strategic. - It will not happen.

Sweetest.

A leopard changes only rarely its spots.

You have to hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

We're done here.

Tell me about the parts of your life you remember.

I had a good childhood.

I was an only child. Spoiled.

I was always building things, rockets, castles, go-karts.

My parents died one year apart,

when I was in my early twenties.

After that it's just one big fog,

and I wander through the mist,

until one day i get out

older, thicker, with a job at Leanne's hash farm.

Dissociative fugue is often produced of trauma or stress.

Do you remember anything along those lines?

I occasionally get a nasty headache

and panic attacks where I feel that I can't breathe.

Bert, do you remember anything about what happened the day you disappeared?

Nothing.

- I think he is telling the truth. - Do you mean it? 470

No!

But you said it yourself it is impossible to know for sure.

Yes.

Maybe you can emphasize that in your assessment?

Should I lie in my report?

I didn't use that word.

You just asked me do something completely unethical.

That's low, even for you.

I thought maybe it went too far.

Given your complete lack on ethics for the rest of your life.

Hey, Harry.

It was a long time ago.

- Abby... - Abigail. My office.

My Goodness.

or hell has actually frozen over.

Joanne told about Frank.

I had no choice. You live in a bubble of denial.

We shall not part!

You must behave as if you are going to divorce.

Stronger are stronger.

That's not what it's called.

Your mother is right.

The longer you are away from home,

the greater the risk of that you lose it.

And the longer Frank has parental authority,

the harder it will be to get yours visiting hours changed. 498

but he is just as guilty.

He says, he didn't want to sleep with her.

Of course he would.

The question is, Is it important to you?

Do you know what?

You two are the last people,

I would go to for marriage advice.

And this gives me goosebumps.

Now that I'm here I should probably update you

about your other daughter.

Jerry.

Joanne.

I know it's a cliché, but you haven't changed at all. 512

I was sad that Harry got you in the divorce.

Jerri, Harry has given in about that partner meeting?

You must be Daniel.

It is true.

How's your mother?

She is fine.

She has worked in Guatemala last year.

She was always an idealist.

How do you know my mother?

We were best friends.

Until she slept with my husband.

It is my assessment that Mr. Choi suffering from dissociative fugue.

What are you basing that on?

He has no memory about the day he disappeared.

Madam Judge, in cases like this

it must be proved that the accused wanted to cause that kind of harm,

which plaintiff has suffered, or that he knew the damage would follow.

If Mr. Choi has no memory on the day in question,

we will never know what he thought.

Thanks for making it so easy.

Does the lawyer have any further questions to this witness?

- No, Madam Judge. - Yes, Madam Judge. 536

Doctor Svensson.

Sorry, Doctor Svensson.

How long have you been practicing? Two years?

Three.

Are you a memory loss specialist?

No, but I...

Have you had a patient with dissociative fugue?

No. It is a rare diagnosis.

So your expertise comes from...?

We studied it at Stanford.

So everything you know about fugue, comes from a textbook?

Protest. Harassment of the witness.

Mrs. Bianchi, put it properly questions to the witness.

I apologize, Madam Judge.

and you admit that you are not in that category,

to distinguish between real amnesia and simulation?

It can be challenging, but it is...

So there are good chances that, that Bert Choi,

roughly speaking, is full of lies,

and that he remembers that he faked his death...

Protest, inappropriate questions.

Knowing that he left his wife behind

- sad and poor. - Taken as a result. Mrs. Bianchi,

i know you know better.

No further questions.

I treated you as a hostile witness.

You asked me to rate him.

You made me look incompetent.

Poor baby. I was just doing my job.

Daniel, say something.

Lucy is right. That was mean.

But also effective.

See you at my party dinner!

- You were good in there. - Thanks.

Like Mike Tyson, when he bit off Evander Holyfield's ear.

There is just that…

I wonder whether the doctor is right.

Maybe he can't remember anything.

Bert and I took drama classes for fun one summer. 578

When you have been married with someone for so long

when you have trusted them for so long...

You know what I want more than money?

The truth.

Thank you Darren.

Lucy mouse.

I heard about you and Maggie.

- Did Abby tell you? - No. Joanne.

Then you could live with me.

Dad, you have a loft with one bedroom, and your girlfriend...

Welcome. Come in, everyone.

Let's sit down.

There are no restrictions on the menu. Dad pays 592

Isn't it lovely?

All five of us for dinner together?

- Didn't Jerri come with you? - Jerri had to cancel.

So who is the fifth?

Hi every one. Sorry I'm late.

Fantastic!

Cheers everybody.

Cheers. For Daniel.

Lucy, how are you?

Fine.

I read that Tegan and Sara coming to town.

Are you and Maggie going to see them?

Because they are gay like us?

Of course not.

Excuse me.

Frankly.

Pardon. It must be hard for you,to be with people who drink.

Certain people, yes.

I am so happy that that I can bear to drink.

If I didn't get my bubbles, I would kill myself.

So, Danny…

- Daniel. - Daniel.

I told your father that you were ready for partnership,

but do you think he listened to me?

Glad Abby spoke in your favor.

Where did they all go?

That woman is…

Nasty.

- She is... - Disgusting?

- The whole dinner was a trap. - Yep.

Did father only make me a partner,because you persuaded him?

I gave him a poof. Nothing else.

Can I ask you both something?

Da Norma's medicine arm started in court today,

Did you notice that Bert reacted almost pavlovian?

No. I was busy looking Lucy's guts on the floor.

Sometimes can certain objects or sounds

trigger memories in a patient with memory loss.

Or, as here, one of his inventions.

- What are you thinking? - I think...

if he really is in a fugue state… 634

Can we maybe get Norma the money and the truth.

Sir. Svensson, my patience is wearing thin.

Excuse me, Madam Judge. The elevator was slow.

We call Bert Choi the witness stand.

Sir. Choi, your defense is,

that you do not intentionally may have caused damage,

if you don't remember that day, You disappeared. Correct?

- Yes. - And yet

you already caused intentional harm

many years before you disappeared did not you?

Protest. He doesn't remember that.

because we have evidence.

I present as evidence The accounts of the Choi couple.

Sir. Choi used intentionally Norma's earnings

for years, without her knowledge.

I refer to point one in the file.

This is the Bedtime Hug Pillow.

- Do you remember this invention? - No.

I have said that I don't remember anything.

Norma, how much did he take from your savings

- to build this prototype? - 4,000 dollars.

The baby polisher. Your baby cleans,while crawling. How much?

7,000 dollars.

A body umbrella.

Also seven.

And here we have the all-in-one stick.

30,000 dollars.

What a noise is that, and can we turn it off?

It's Medi-remember. Another of Bert's inventions.

He pocketed 50,000 in them, but he also came into the Lion's Den.

Kevin O'Leary said, I was an idiot.

I hid our finances problems for Norma for several years.

Intercepted calls and letters from debt collection agencies.

I kept thinking that my nextinvention would be a success.

And then it hit me,

shoes with air conditioning.

Who doesn't get too hot feet?

So I took out another loan on the house,

I forged Norma's signature,

blew a lot of money into prototypes,

and the first time i tried on a pair, I was sure I had a hit.

Until it started to rain and the motor short-circuited.

I ruined us.

So I decided to put an end to it all.

I went into the river to drown me

but that too failed.

Yes, Bert.

I remember, how you supported me.

I loved you.

I love you.

But I thought I loved Leanne.

I am so confused.

It's all right, Bert. I can stop your confusion.

Because I will never take you back.

My mother said, “A tiger can't change its stripes."

I would always wonder, if you would betray my trust again.

I deserve better, Bert.

I deserve better.

Sir. Choi, although I believe that youhad some kind of memory loss,

so was what you did to this one woman for years, without conscience.

She supported you through everyone your failed inventions

and deserves to get the merit from your Port-a-Pothead.

I give plaintiff, Norma Choi, second.

Madam lawyer, book half a day, so I can determine the compensation.

Let's wrap this one up over a few drinks.

If you give, I'm in.

Congratulations. You get a good payout.

Enough to buy a used onecanary yellow folk wagon rye bread.

Thanks.

One more thing.

I will use my phone in the future.

I take a bath.

- Takeaway for dinner? You choose. - Okay.

HELLO

FRANK? YOU ARE VERY NAUGHTY.

AM I?

FELICITY

Frank?

Stay away from my father!

Stay away from my family!

Oh God.

Hello.

Hello.

How are you feeling?

Emotional. Miserable.

- Physically, fine. - Maggie, what I did...

I'm not like that.

I'm a better person than that.

Do you really believe that yourself?

I imagined that you could change.

Who did I fool?

You are a deeply damaged human being.

Unable to display honesty, fidelity, love.

You are not a good person.

You are rotten through and through.

Nina? Have you heard from the sign company?

Someone here obviously told them, that the work was finished?

Didn't I say "no candy".

Yes. I failed you.

I deserve a partner meeting.

It is booked for Tuesday.

Thanks.

Mother?

Sophia.

I don't want to live with dad anymore.

YOU KNEW THAT EVENING THE CONFERENCE MEANED SOMETHING TO ME

YOU SAID IT TOO MEAN SOMETHING TO YOU!

IT SOUNDED AS IF YOUR MARRIAGE WAS OVER.

I HAVE NEVER WANTED DESTROYING A MARRIAGE.

Sofia, you scared the life out of me.

She disappeared. Didn't answer his phone.

You didn't either.

Say again you don't was in bed with her, Frank.

I can not.

Thanks.
