Nice to see you.

- Good to see you, girl.
- Thank you.

How ya doin'?

Thank you so much.

Hey, Aunt Jojo.

What do you think?

What's going on here?

Hey, this is your surprise.

You're not supposed to see.

No thank you.

You never relax.

Maybe it'll help get
the bug out of your ass.

You got a problem?

Your problem with me, is what I hear.

Calling me a disgrace.

Telling Lucy she can't trust me?

You don't know nothin' about me.

I need to go.

Where are you going?

I am good to that girl.

What do you do for this family?

And I'm the disgrace?

How many times have you been in jail?

In and out.

Seven?

Eight?

Wanna know how many
times I've been in jail?

None.

So you don't get to tell anyone.

You better back off my face.

You think you're hard, don'cha?

I want an apology.

I am not about to let
some old lady jailbird

talk smack about me.

Happy birthday, Mom.

Thank you. It's beautiful.

Reed? Oh my God!

Someone call 911!!

Hey, come on, Reed, breathe.

No.

Come on.

Wake up, please.

I've been found guilty.

I'm going back in, Miss Marcie.

Nothin' you can do about that.

Miss Jojo,

there's still your sentencing.

And you might go back in,

but how long you go back
in is yet to be determined.

And I think you'll be
able to serve your time

in provincial prison as
opposed to federal prison,

which means you'll be
able to see your family.

If they wanna see me.

They will want to see you.

Has Betty been in touch?

I thought she might show up in court.

No, but I'll reach out.

We'll ask her to be a character
witness in your hearing.

She's gonna wanna speak up for you.

You think the judge might
go easy, Miss Marcie?

On sentencing?

After everything that
you've been through,

I think there's a good chance,

as long as it's reflected
in the pre-sentence report.

But everything I've gone
through has landed me in prison.

Once I get that pre-sentence report,

I will talk to the Crown.

And I think he's going to agree

on a joint sentence recommendation.

As long as he and I
are on a united front,

that judge is gonna listen.

You just can't lose hope, Miss Jojo.

Tell me you're kidding with this.

I know.

It's absolutely beautiful here.

It's a bit out of the way

but I should bring my
dog here this weekend.

Please don't.

You know this is Seaview Park.

The land you're standing
on used to be Africville.

Okay.

Right, so, that's what the
field trip's all about.

It's where my client grew up.

It's all gone now,
except for this church.

It's not the original of course.

That was torn down with
the rest of her community.

Jojo Carvery killed a man, Marcie.

I'm sorry she lost her church, but-

No, no, she lost her community.

Her life was stolen from her,

and when the city took
her family's land

that was the beginning of the end.

Look, the jury wasn't persuaded

and you know this sob story
is not gonna work on me.

Okay, but a
twenty year sentence, Steve,

come on!

After everything this
woman's been through?

What about Reed Izard?

His family?

What about what they've been through?

Or how about the six
other violent crimes

Jojo's been convicted of?

Okay, she has PTSD, Steve.

And the psych eval will attribute it

to her time in federal prison.

She was terrorized in
there by another inmate,

and when she tried to fight back,

she was put in solitary
confinement for months.

Come on, she's on meds.

She's doing therapy.

That's very sad, Marcie,
and I-I mean that,

but it's not my concern.

My concern is keeping
a convicted killer

off the streets.

Let's just wait and see

what the pre-sentencing report says.

I think if you see
Jojo's life all laid out,

you'll reconsider.

I've already seen it.

But I...

It arrived after you called.

I-I read it before I came over here.

I called half hour ago.

Well, there wasn't
much in there to be honest,

and certainly nothing to convince me

your client deserves leniency.

Well, thanks for getting me
out of the office, Marcie.

I appreciate it. I'll see ya.

What the hell is all this Percy?

You wanted change.

Oh, the realtor's coming by tomorrow.

You voted for this, Colleen, remember?

Everyone under one roof.

Wait, you're selling the building?

Well, there's more than
enough room for everyone

at Clayton Park.

- Nance, you gettin' this?
- Yes, but Neil-

Yeah, keep rollin'!
According to these bozos,

I'm not allowed to
drink in my own home!

Bottoms up, baby-

Oh my God!

Nance, Nance! Police brutality!

See how it went down?

Total lawlessness!

We got those bastards!

This video very clearly shows you

throwing a punch at a police officer.

Doesn't change the fact
that they barged in

and accused me of drunk driving
with no evidence whatsoever.

Well, you look pretty drunk.

I was drunk because
I was in my own house,

drinking to excess,
which is legal for me to do!

Assaulting a police
officer, however...

I'll plea to that, whatever.

But I'm not lettin' this DUI thing go.

My fans are gonna lose their
minds when they hear about it.

Fans?

Of my news site.

Plus I just started a
podcast a few months ago.

My subscriber base is
about to take off.

Cops don't know who
they're dealin' with.

Neil, it's really not a good idea

to make your own arrest a cause celeb.

Look, he's got me in a chokehold.

Ow! Ow!

They're arresting him.

Hey! Hey you! You! Buddy!

Who's that guy that you're yelling at?

Police brutality!

Oh yeah, him?

Lives in my neighbourhood.

Shady.

Drug dealer's my guess.

Mr. Broward.

Help you?

My name's Marcie Diggs.

Jojo Carvery's attorney.

Can I talk to you about
the pre-sentence report

that you wrote?

Okay, but make it quick.

I'm due to testify any minute.

That report is barely three pages long

and all it talks about
is her criminal record.

I'm her probation officer,
not her biographer.

Okay, but you,

you mentioned nothing
about her background

or her upbringing.

Did you even talk to her?

Her sister? Her boss?

Jojo's been working in a
bakery for the last six years

and her boss says she's
the most reliable employee

that he's ever had.

She's also a 62 year old with
a rap sheet as long as my arm.

Look, I've been down
this road with Jojo.

I'm guessin' I know
her better than you.

Oh, so you're saying that this
is your second or third time

writing a report for Jojo and what?

You just recycle the
same half-assed document

you wrote back then, huh?

You wanna go all Ken
Burns on the life of Jojo Carvery,

be my guest.

Can you tell me what your
husband was yelling

at the officers?

Well, there was some bad language.

That's okay, I won't judge.

"Why the heck am I being
harassed in my own home?"

He didn't say heck, but...

And what made your
husband so belligerent?

Well, Neil runs a news blog.

It covers local policing,
municipal politics.

He also has a podcast with a
steadily growing listenership.

He thought maybe he was being harassed

because of his reporting.

Hm. Can you tell
me how long you were home

before the police arrived?

Twenty, maybe thirty minutes.

And would you agree
that your husband was intoxicated

when they arrived?

Yes but only because he'd
gotten into the whiskey

once we arrived home.

So he was drunk and pretty hostile

right outta the gate, it sounds like.

No, I wouldn't say hostile.

Neil just gets worked up sometimes.

Worked up to the extent

that he threw a punch
at Officer James.

Mrs. Boyle?

Did your husband throw a
punch at Officer James?

Yes or no?

Yes.

Thank you.

Dad?

What?

What are you doing here?

Just dropping by to see my girl.

Say hi, get caught up.

Get a little legal
advice while I'm at it.

Well you caught me at
a really bad time, Dad.

I'm just here to get some files

and I'm heading right back to court.

It's this situation with your mother.

Tommy, you know,
he plays bass in the band?

He's divorced.

He, uh, he told me

he moved out after a
fight just for two weeks,

but his wife's lawyer said
he'd relinquished all claims

to the family home.

The judge agreed.

Are we really talking
about divorce right now?

No, it's just...

I don't know, I could
lose my claim to the house

because I went to stay with
your sister a few days.

I can't be the one who you
talk to about this stuff.

You-you get that, right?

Well, can you find me someone?

Like a-

Like a divorce lawyer?

I need to know where I stand.

Let me think about it.

Um, I'll find you someone.

- Today?
- Yes.

I-I have to run.

Love you.

I love you, too.

So this is an
example of the peyote stitch

from the Natoaganeg First Nation

Ah, the man of the hour,

my reliably late ex-husband.

Bring it up. Thank you.

And just in, under the wire,

we have that sample of appliqué
stitching that I promised you.

Can you imagine the panic
I felt when I realized

I didn't have any
samples from Eskasoni?

Well, no fear of me
telling anyone from home.

How long you here for?

Grab some lunch?

We're here for another few days.

We?

Me and Dad.

Your dad's here?

What brings the Chief
to the big, bad city?

Chemo.

Cancer's in his liver.

Doctor's recommending
"aggressive" treatment.

Oh, Michelle, I'm sorry.

He's being stoic.

You know him.

I do.

No, no.

I'd like to see him.

Doug. It's not a good idea.

Doesn't he understand
that you and I have moved on

from what happened?

So has Melanie.

Oh he understands.

He thinks we're both fools
for even talking to you.

Well, give him my best.

I will.

He'll be delighted.

What exactly

is it you think is missing from this,

Ms. Diggs?

Well, it reduces
Jojo to her criminal record.

There's nothing about her
life, her job, her family.

Your Honour, everything my
colleague is discussing here,

Ms. Carvery's background
and life experience,

would be covered in her

Impact of Race and Culture Assessment.

Your Honour, the
IRCA provided by Mr. Broward,

a white male with no connection
to the Black community,

simply fails to capture the social

and psychological fallout
the decimation of Africville

had on Jojo.

The impact of being ousted
from her home as a child.

Why, because the city of
Halifax didn't want Blacks

living on such a choice piece of land?

I simply feel the court owes Jojo

a fair hearing of her story.

And we submit the court
owes it to the family of the victim

to carry out justice swiftly
and without delay, Your Honour.

Ms. Diggs, you have
72 hours to proffer

an amendment IRCA to this court.

Any new information that you find,

the court will take it into account.

And that's me and
Jojo in front of Seaview United.

The original one,
before it was torn down.

Church was the first thing to go.

The city had come in
the middle of the night.

That's how they did it,
house by house.

Must have been so awful.

Every day, another house gone.

My aunt refused to leave.

They bulldozed her place

while she was away
overnight in the hospital.

She didn't even get the
$500 they were offering.

They said Africville was a slum,

that's why we couldn't stay.

But we had backyards, gardens.

We'd get up in the morning,

run down to the sea
and jump in the water.

Places they put us were the slums.

Mm, you girls look so happy.

Jojo wanted to go home.

One day she just started walking.

Police picked her up and
that's how she got sent

to a foster family.

Just like that?

Social worker said
our mother was overwhelmed,

said she couldn't handle Jojo.

She'd just had our baby brother.

She was afraid if she argued,

they'd take him away too, and me.

And how long was Jojo gone?

About a year.

She came back and got into mischief,

shoplifting and such.

Later on, she took up
with some fast boys.

They were the ones got her
involved in that robbery

where someone got killed.

And Jojo was eighteen?

Right.

Eight years she was in prison.

That was what really changed her.

She wasn't the sister
I remembered anymore.

That girl was gone.

Is-is that why you
didn't come to Jojo's trial?

Things have been hard for my daughter

since what happened to Reed.

Lucy doesn't wanna know Jojo anymore,

and I'm just trying to keep the peace.

Who do you think might remember Jojo

from before she went to prison?

Might wanna speak up for her?

You could try her lawyer,
Anthony Barclay.

He said Jojo was innocent.

Would have done anything for her.

- Barclay?
- Mmhmm.

Officer James,

what can you tell me about this man?

Right there,

watching you arrest my client.

Just a gawker.

Did you get a name?

Take a statement?

I'm sorry, Your
Honour, but where is this going?

I think it's obvious.

This gentleman needs to
be on the witness list.

Well, if you
can find him, Ms. McDonnell,

the court will hear his testimony.

You crappy piece of crap!

Garbage machine!

Hello?

Hi.

- Hi.
- Sorry.

Did you have an appointment?

Um, I'm actually looking
for Anthony Barclay?

Oh, that's me!

Anthony Barclay who
represented Jojo Carvery

forty years ago?

Ah, that would be my Dad.

Tony Junior.

Amazed I found this without Harriet.

Her filing system's a bit baroque.

You ever think of hiring
some help for Harriet?

Oh, she'd never allow it.

Plus, she works cheap.

Business isn't exactly booming.

Yeah.

Well, I'll spread the word.

- I appreciate that.
- Mmmhmm.

Okay, this is the mother lode.

All Dad's notes on the case,

all the filings.

What do you need exactly?

Well, Betty said that your dad

thought that Jojo was innocent.

Is, is there anything in
there that might tell me why?

Police reports,

all the witness statements.

Okay.

This is why.

This is why right here.

Wendell Brown.

It's one of the boys that
she was arrested with.

He testified that she wasn't
a part of the robbery

but the judge cautioned the jury

that the statement had
limited probative value.

I guess 'cause he saw it as Wendell

trying to help out his girlfriend.

You know she served eight
years for a first time offence?

If this would have just
been properly considered,

it would have changed
everything for her.

He asked to see you.

- Really?
- Yeah.

No cursing, no yelling.

No screwing up his face
like he wants to spit.

It was just, "Oh yeah, Doug.

"Have him come by."

Did he say why?

He's facing the end of his life.

Maybe the Chief's ready
to let go of old grudges.

Let you come back home.

Wouldn't wanna get my hopes up.

But what else could it be?

Doug, I think this could really be it.

All right, so just
up here is the lunch room.

I'll take you down to the
basement after to, uh-

Hey Colleen.

This is Rick, the realtor.

Rick.

Rick says we can have
the building on the market

by the end of the week.

Wait, this week?

Wait, you're expecting
us to pack up and be out-

Dammit!

Percy, we really need
to talk about this.

My door is always open, Colleen.

Hey Neil, what's up?

I found him for ya, Coll!

Found who?

Don't-don't call me Coll.

Our mysterious witness.

Same guy the entire Halifax PD

had no idea whatsoever how to find.

How did you find him?

CCTV footage from the corner store.

He lives around here,

figured he'd show up on
camera at some point.

Six hours of footage later...

Okay, how do we find this guy?

Three doors down from my house.

This conviction

is where everything started
to go wrong for Jojo.

Eight years in prison

and her sister says she
was irrevocably changed.

And after that came
the mental illness,

the drug abuse, the alcohol abuse-

The multiple convictions,
the parole violations.

And now it looks like
she may have been innocent.

Well, she's found guilty
by a judge and jury.

Steve, the system is supposed
to rehabilitate people

not ruin them.

What-what do you want, Marcie?

I don't have a time machine.

Take this into account!

Okay, as long as you
return the favour.

Hello, um-

I understand a
Paul McPhail lives here.

Would that be you?

I represent one of your
neighbours, Neil Boyle?

I don't know any Neil.

Ah, you were a witness to
an altercation last month?

My client was arrested
in front of his home-

Don't know what you're talking about.

Actually, you were caught on camera

watching the whole thing transpire.

We would-we would love
for you to testify-

No.

Think of it as an opportunity

to stand up against police-

Hey!

I can have you subpoenaed!

Hey Dad.

No, I'm sorry, I just,

I've been in the middle of-

I know, you always are.

But you said you were gonna
find me someone, today.

Actually, I did!

I did. I found I think
someone really great.

- I will send you his contacts.
- That's great.

Daddy, actually I-I've
gotta-I've gotta take this call.

- Okay, I love you.
- I love you, too.

Marcie Diggs.

Ms. Diggs, I'm
calling about Wendell Brown.

Ah, you found him.

We did.

- Wendell Brown?
- That's right.

I'm gonna come in on your operation,

we gotta establish a few ground rules.

I bring certain
resources to the table,

so I say how business gets done.

Okay Grandpa.

Plus 20% of the take.

- Hey there.
- Hey.

How's business?

You're our afternoon rush.

Oh.

Well, in that case.

Hey.

Thank you.

Sorry it's a little warm,

we ran outta ice.

I can go get some.

Yeah.

So you wouldn't happen
to be Wendell Brown?

Can I help you?

I wanted to talk to
you about Jojo Carvery.

Danny, it's time to go inside.

But I got ice!

Go inside now. I'll be right in.

She really needs your help.

And I know that you helped her before.

Please, don't contact
me or my family again.

Where's your witness, Counsellor?

Sorry, Your Honour.

I had a feeling Mr. McPhail
might not show up.

He didn't show a lot of enthusiasm

for the idea when we spoke.

Your Honour, all due respect,

this is just a delay tactic.

It's not for counsel
to determine the value

of Mr. McPhail's testimony.

My client has every right to
have this witness' testimony

entered into the record.

Okay, let's reconvene this afternoon.

I'll send someone to fetch
the elusive Mr. McPhail,

and if he's not here,
we'll talk about next steps.

Thank you.

Did you have anything to do with this?

That's aggressive.

What a liar that man is!

"Oh, I'll just stay at Emily's
for a few days, cool off.

"Everything's just fine."

And then boom! This attack!

It's just lawyer-speak.

I know it feels hardass-

You're in this, aren't you, Marcie?

I just gave him a name.

So you're on his side?

I'm not on anyone's side, Mom.

Hm. You tell him this.

If he wants to play hardball,
I can play hardball too!

My girls, they think I
should let old grudges go.

Forget how you made
my girls a punchline.

Especially now, Michelle says.

I gather you disagree.

Now that you're a father,

I wonder if you can
understand how you'd feel

if someone were to hurt your children.

No offence Tom,

but my daughters, your granddaughters,

are almost fully grown up.

This is some pretty old
ground we're covering.

And I should be over it, is that it?

Why am I here?

Because you owe me.

Is that right?

After all the pain you caused,
you're damn right you do.

I'm not going to get better.

I know that.

I need you to help me
to arrange my death.

Help me find a doctor who will assist,

and make sure the
process goes smoothly.

I wanna be able to do it
while I'm still capable

of administering the drug to myself.

Sure.

Assisted dying is legal.

And it's my choice.

The girls won't understand.

What?

You have to tell them.

Once everything is in place,
only then.

You can say nothing to Michelle.

You wanna come home?

This is how you make restitution.

Wendell Brown?

Lord, when have I
heard that name last?

Was he your boyfriend?

Oh, more than that.

He was a friend.

He wrote me in jail for years.

Said it changed him,

seeing me go away.

Never cared that much about himself.

But he realized someone he loved

could be hurt by his actions.

So he turned things around.

Well it seems like
he's had a good life.

He's got a granddaughter.

A home.

He was always very smart.

And a beautiful writer.

Oh, I saved every one of his letters.

You wouldn't happen to know

where I'd find those letters now?

Oh, Betty holds onto 'em for me,

along with a few mementos.

What did he say?

Can you come home?

That's not what he wanted to discuss.

But then what?

It was, um, a private conversation.

- Oh.
- I can't talk about it, Michelle.

You're kidding me.

You're shutting me out?

What the hell's going on here?

I'm sorry.

You know what,

this is feeling a bit too much
like old times right now.

It's great to finally
meet you Mr. McPhail.

You can swear
on a holy book or affirm.

No.

Do you promise to tell
the truth at the very least?

What would you like me to do here?

Your Honour, we feel
he has relevant evidence to give.

Um, we'd like him to remain in custody

given the difficulty in
obtaining his presence.

Mr. McPhail,
we're going to give you time

to think about her decision

and seek independent legal counsel.

We're here till 4:30 and back
tomorrow morning at 9:30.

Whatever.

You're the judge.

Sheriff, please show our
mysterious friend to his cell.

So, what's going on?

I just got a voicemail
from your mother.

I think I might've made things worse.

Dad, why would
you send her that letter?

Tony said it was in my best interests.

Thank you.

Mom thinks you declared war.

Well, he said we had
to come out swingin'.

Thanks, Tony.

What you got there?

Some letters written by
a man who was madly in love

forty years ago.

I remember that feeling.

Never goes away exactly.

Changes, deepens.

Lord knows it gets a little bit messy.

But no,

that kinda love never goes away.

Hm.

That woman who
you wrote that beautiful letter to,

she's facing the rest
of her life in prison.

Possibly dying there.

Will you help her?

Hey Neil, everything okay?

Everything is definitely not okay.

I'm texting you a photo
I took last night.

It's McPhail!

Our guy's back on the streets.

I thought he'd been
jailed for contempt.

He was!

My brother, Reed, was a good man.

He didn't always do things right,

but he didn't deserve
to die like that.

He was the perfect older brother.

He checked in on me,
ran off bad boyfriends.

All he was doing that day was
trying to have a conversation.

She didn't have to kill him.

Man came out of the bedroom
waving a hunting rifle.

My boy Emmett had a pistol.

Bullet went right
through the guy's neck.

We ran outta that house
screaming at Jojo to drive.

And Jojo had no idea
what had happened?

Didn't even know why we were there.

But she went to jail longer than me.

Thank you, Mr. Brown.

Thank you, Ms. Diggs,

for giving me the
opportunity to come here,

see Jojo,

and tell you how sorry I am.

For all of it.

Mr. Brown, you applied
for a pardon 10 years ago.

- Did you get it?
- Yeah.

So now your record's spotless.

It's like that murder
didn't even happen.

That man's death changed my life.

You wrote to Jojo for
many years after her conviction,

but you stopped after she got out.

Why'd you stop?

We just fell outta touch.

Did it have
anything to do with the fact

that Jojo was almost
immediately convicted again

of yet another violent crime?

Assault causing bodily harm.

No.

Maybe she didn't seem
so innocent to you anymore.

And then she just kept getting
into trouble after that,

didn't she?

I-I didn't know anything about the-

Why would you?

You were trying to turn
your life around, right?

Trying to make amends for a crime

that was clearly eating away at you.

I mean, that's the real reason
you're here today, isn't it?

To make amends?

Find absolution?

You may not be able to
bring that man you killed

back to life, but, you know,

maybe if you save Jojo,
well, all will be forgiven.

The thing is Mr. Brown,
Jojo never had your problem.

She was never bothered by her
conscience the way you were.

And that's clearly
seen in her extensive

and violent criminal record
that spans forty years.

You didn't return my texts.

I'm sorry about yesterday.

He's my father and he's
likely going to die.

I'm on a bit of an emotional
knife edge, I'm just...

I get it.

That's the rational part.

The irrational part is you
keeping things from me.

After everything we went through.

All the lies and all my anger
at you just came rushing back.

That's not so irrational.

And I know he's sworn
you to secrecy or whatever,

but I'm the one that has
to cope with him dying.

I'm the one that has
to tell his grandkids.

I gotta get back in there.

I'll come with you.

I'd rather you didn't, Doug.

- Hey.
- Hey, what's up?

I'm just about to deal
with this meeting.

Neil sent me this photo.

Our guy is back on the street.

It's funny, huh?

What's going on here, Avery?

Look, let's just do six months
on the DUI charges

and we'll dismiss the other ones.

He's an undercover cop, isn't he?

Neil figures this whole thing
is a vendetta against him

because of his hard-hitting
police reporting.

Okay, your client has
an inflated sense

of his own importance.

All right, so this cop,

probably working some other case,

must be huge, maybe RCMP,

basically blunders
his way onto camera,

potentially blowing his cover.

Idiot.

So, should I expect a
stay of the charges?

If your client can promise

to keep his curiosity in check, yeah.

As if.

I'll, uh, I'll be expecting
the paperwork, Avery.

Jojo worked six years in
Mr. Mason's bakery, no issues.

He told me she was the
best employee he ever had.

So no drugs, no alcohol?

Run-ins with the
police during that time?

No, the bakery was good for her.

Things only changed when
her shift got moved around.

Jojo needs structure.

Only found out once she
talked to the psychiatrist,

she's got social anxiety.

That's why the night shift worked out.

But now that we know what she needs,

she can get treatment.

So you believe your
sister's capable of a productive,

positive life?

Absolutely, yes, she is.

She just needs that structure,

that support.

Mrs. Henson, if Jojo
is released on probation,

who is there to provide that support?

Can she rely on you?

I...

I'm not sure if...

Pardon, Mrs. Henson?

I-I don't know.

My family has been through so much.

A man dead on my floor.

I just don't know.

Neil, it's too early for updates.

We won't hear anything back
from the Crown for at least-

Colleen, I just got a
call from someone at the HPD.

A superintendent.

What did he say?

She said she wanted me to, quote,

"Pay her a little visit".

ASAP.

What's goin' on?

I thought this was over with?

Ah...

You wanted to talk
about the amalgamation timeline?

Neil, I'll meet you there.

I do.

But I can't right now.

Change can be scary, Colleen.

Of course.

I voted for you didn't I?

The candidate of change.

Maybe this wasn't the
change you were after.

We'll have to talk
about it later, Percy.

Don't worry, we have it in hand.

Mr. Boyle, thank you for coming in.

I just wanted to
personally apologize to you

for all the fuss.

Sorry, why is my client here?

We thought it only fair

to compensate Mr. Boyle
for his trouble.

Ten thousand dollars?

Consideration for
any inconvenience suffered.

And you want my client
to forgo a civil suit.

And we'd ask that
Mr. Boyle agree to not discuss

the night of his arrest with anyone.

I have seen a lot of police nonsense

in my twenty plus years of journalism,

but I have never seen
anything this inept.

- Neil.
- This shady, this corrupt!

Mister... And I'll tell
you somethin', lady,

no amount of dirty cop
money will shut me up!

I won't do it.

Not the way that you want.

What is that supposed to mean?

I'll help you die at the time
and the means of your choosing,

but I won't let you keep
this from your daughters.

You think you have the
right to set the terms?

I offered you redemption.

You offered me a dead end.

You said do this and I can come home.

But I'll never be able to come home,

because your daughters
will never forgive me.

And you know it.

You owe me!

You told me lying to
Michelle was unforgivable.

You banished me from my home for it,

and now you want us to do it together?

She'll try to talk me out of it.

I can't.

I fall apart when she cries.

I'll help you.

Ms. Carvery,

do you have anything you'd
like to say before sentencing?

My lawyer, Miss Marcie,

she's worked hard to tell
you the story of my life.

No one's ever cared enough
to ask how I got here.

Why I did what I did.

I think I learned as much
from hearing my story

as you did, Your Honour.

And I guess we both came
to the same conclusion.

I should go to prison.

Maybe for life.

It's where I belong.

Jojo.

There's nothin' outside for me.

I can't be like other people,

good people,

like my sister Betty.

I just end up hurting everybody.

I think it's...

I don't know how else to be.

But I wanna thank you for
hearing my story, Your Honour.

And I thank Miss
Marcie for tellin' it.

Since your first conviction
40 years ago, Ms. Carvery,

some might say you've had plenty
of opportunities to reform.

On the other hand,

that questionable prosecution

does seem to have set you on a path

that robbed you of
the emotional stability

necessary to build a decent life.

Nonetheless, you have
taken a man's life.

I'm sentencing you to five years,

two years less a day
in a provincial prison

and three years probation.

During that time you will
receive psychiatric counselling.

The system had a hand in
creating you, Ms. Carvery.

You are a product of our neglect.

As is, sadly, the death of Reed Izard.

But that neglect ends here.

We won't give up on you.

We're adjourned.

All rise.

You're out in two years.

You're gonna be okay.

Jojo.

I'll be there when you get out.

I'm not giving up on you either.

Congratulations
on how you handled the case.

It was a strange one.

I've had stranger,

but I will say this
was in the top three.

I don't think you're aware

I'm on the selection
board for judgeships.

No. No, I wasn't.

We've been looking for new blood.

I saw that you put in an application?

I did.

You'll get a call next week.

Be ready.

Hey.

Hey.

- Long day, huh?
- Mm.

Oh, this is niiiice.

Something you could get used to?

Uhhh...

- Oh.
- Thank you.

Got a call from Audra.

Audra. Oh, from M&M?

Yeah, she said your
mother came by the office

looking for a divorce lawyer.

And according to Audra,

she wanted the meanest one they had.
