- We should elope. - You've been putting off

planning our wedding for months and now suddenly

you want to elope?

You're running a background check on Andre?

I want to know where he's lived, his blood type.

So, I'm doing my deep dive.

I need you to stay away from my wife.

It's gonna be a problem if I see some shit like that again.

- ANDRE: Oh, you saw that? - Robin! Hi.

Spill the tea.

Ah 'kay. Uh, as long as it doesn't interfere with work,

Oh, Sherri. You didn't have to.

- Thank you. - SHERRI: Flowers and truffles?

Uh, yes. The flowers just came from my parents

and the truffles are from Robin.

Oh, so you and Robin are good?

Things are still a little tender, but we're both trying.

And he's actually taking me to Mother Wolf tonight for dinner.

No way. That place is booked out like,

- six months in advance. - I know.

What's wrong?

It's just... another year has passed and I have to say,

I am not terribly proud of myself.

- Oh, Your Honor. - I mean, when Andre came back

to town, I should have handled things differently.

But instead I let my emotions get the better of me... again.

Well, you deserve to knock off a little early and go home

and relax with Robin before dinner tonight.

Yeah.

It's just after two COVID birthdays,

I was really looking forward to getting together

with my friends and my family, but I didn't bring it up

because things have been so hot and cold with Robin.

- Maybe next year? - Next year.

Okay, unfortunately, we have a very busy today.

- Hit me. - Okay.

We have the continuation

of the sushi chef attempted murder trial,

three motions to review, and no more procrastinating.

You must complete your judicial recertification courses

or you're not gonna--

Else, I won't be recertified, I know. I know.

Wow. Three years went by fast.

[Sherri sighing] Yeah, it has.

- I love that you kept it. - Oh. [laughing]

Of course, I kept it. And now that I'm sort of settled,

he's finally in a place of pride. I love him.

Do you have any interesting cases today?

I have a new client who sideswiped

a private school mom's car.

- You? - Two low level felony cases.

I should be done in time for tonight.

[Emily gasping]

This is our first outing as a couple.

♪

Oh, Chef Hiroto, Chef Yuma, please, come in.

- Thank you for all this. - Oh, absolutely.

You know, if anything happens to you or Kainami Sushi,

Mark will never forgive me, so.

Well, as we've discussed, your attempted murder charge

is very serious.

You're facing life in prison if the jury believes

that you tried to kill your sous chef.

And unfortunately, the toxicologist that testified

yesterday really resonated with the jury.

So, tell me a little more about Paolo.

He was a hard working and talented disciple.

Are the accounts of the two of you

having big blowout arguments true?

I am ashamed to say they are.

What would you argue about?

Me.

Female sushi chefs are not common,

and my father only recently decided

to give me the restaurant.

When Yuma proved herself, I felt it was only right

to leave Kainami to her instead of Paolo.

I've worked my ass off to get here. I earned it.

And even though he's got his own place now, he's still bitter.

My father would never hurt him. What would be the point?

Revenge.

We have to convince the jury

that your father wasn't angry at Paolo.

But unfortunately, Chef Hiroto, you had motive and opportunity,

and the prosecution will try to use your temper against you.

♪

[Hiroto sighing]

- Hey. - Hey.

So, I was thinking I might have you jump in

and lend Berger a hand on the sushi case.

- Oh, um... - Is there a problem?

Well, I know the chef.

He's been feeding me like,

twice a week for the last five years,

so it could be seen as a conflict of interest.

- Got it. Okay. - [phone chiming]

Have Palmer as a backup if Berger needs a hand, all right?

Um, listen, I-- I actually

been meaning to stop by your office anyway.

Um, I'm sorry it took me so long, but I finally have

a recommendation for you for the head DDA position.

- Oh? - Tony Carver.

Hmm. Well, you're right. It has been a while.

Which is why I've already chosen someone.

Wh-- wh-- Uh, who?

I guess now it's your turn to wait, Callan.

Right.

♪

[phone chiming]

And it is very important that you look at the jury

when answering any questions.

Do I really have to testify?

I just want this whole thing to be over.

I still can't believe this happened.

Tox reports don't lie. There were significant traces

of blowfish poisoning in your system when you ate the food

he prepared for you.

Yeah, I mean you really are lucky to be alive.

Do I have time to use the restroom?

SARA: Oh, yeah, sure.

Um, it's just actually around the corner here.

Keep an eye on Paolo. He seems on edge.

I'll find Ms. Quinn.

- Ms. Quinn! - Mr. Berger.

- Ms. Castillo. - SARA: Hi.

We have an offer for your client.

Plead to poisoning food for human consumption

and we'll dismiss the attempted murder for two years

of formal probation and 364 days in county jail.

Thanks, but we'll take our chances in court.

Paolo really doesn't want to testify.

Yeah, but now, we don't have a choice.

[Sara sighing]

- Happy birthday! - Thank you.

I'm actually finishing up my last JRC course.

I finally finished mine last night.

- So jealous. - Hey, I might need to pick

your brain on an elder abuse case today.

Oh, I would love to if I have time.

Sherri has informed me we have a very packed schedule today.

- Very packed schedule today. - Hm.

Damn it! No. It got timed out again.

If it helps, the prompts that make sure

you're watching pop up at minute 13, 43 and 75.

We'll talk later.

Sherri.

[chuckling]

How long did you work for Kainami Sushi?

I started out as Chef Hiroto's dishwasher,

and then I spent nearly ten years as his protege.

And then I went to school

to learn about restaurant management

'cause Chef was going to pass Kainami Sushi onto me.

- And did he? - No.

His daughter, Yuma, suddenly wanted to play chef,

so I was out.

When an investor offered me my own place,

I jumped at the chance.

I fused dishes from my Peruvian heritage with my sushi training.

And you received a Michelin star for your efforts,

- is that correct? - Yes.

How long were you open before you got it?

About a year. A COVID year too, which was pretty crazy.

And what happened the night

you were awarded the Michelin star?

I went to celebrate and make peace with Chef.

So, I sent over my signature dish.

I guess I was still in the need of his approval or something.

Anyway, when he replied with his own dish,

I thought we were in a better place,

like we had exchanged olive branches.

What happened next?

Not long after I finished the dish,

I was rushed to the hospital with blowfish poisoning.

CLAYTON: Thank you.

Chef Hiroto invested a lot of time in you, didn't he?

Yes.

Was he aware that you were going to repay him by opening

your own restaurant just down the street?

I-- It's not the same food. I wasn't--

Has Chef Hiroto's business suffered since you've been open?

- Unfortunately, it has-- - And did you ever think--

Your Honor, is she ever going to let him complete an answer?

Apologies.

Chef Renalto, fugu, or blowfish, is a specialty

because it's imperative that the chef avoids puncturing

the ovaries or liver, which contains the deadly toxins.

- Is that correct? - Yes.

Well, how'd it taste that night?

Objection. Is this a joke? Mr. Renalto could have died.

Your Honor, my client is up for attempted murder.

I would simply like to know

how the allegedly poisoned food tasted.

I'll allow it.

Please tell us, how did it taste?

Fine, I guess.

Um, it was-- it was with some new pairings

that I didn't recognize.

It was also a crazy night.

I am ashamed to say that I finished

the dish faster than I wanted to.

So, is that why you didn't taste the fugu?

Or is it because Chef Hiroto knows you don't like fugu,

and in fact, never added it to the dish he served you.

- What? - Objection.

- Sustained. - AMY: No further questions.

♪

- Mrs. Ellington? - Yes.

Hi, we spoke on the phone. I'm Emily Lopez.

I've been appointed to represent you.

Ah, it's nice to meet you. And please call me Alma.

Okay, Alma. I will.

Alma, why don't we head right this way.

I'm all set up. How's your day going?

- Great, um, well, I'm here. - I know, I know.

We're going to make this as painless as possible, okay?

- Thank you. - Okay, Alma.

You are being charged with felony vandalism

and misdemeanor hit and run

for side swiping Miss Summer Pilard's Mercedes.

- Do you know her? - Yes.

Our kids are on the school lacrosse team together.

Can you tell me what happened?

I was at the field watching my daughter's game

and I got called back to work.

I, in my rush, just flew out of the parking lot.

Honestly, I didn't realize I did any damage.

She reported it because she claims that you did it

on purpose due to an argument that you had?

She is so dramatic. Ugh.

We disagreed over the new uniforms for the team.

It was nothing.

So, the repair bill, it's-- it's pretty significant.

But, you don't have any criminal history,

so I'm sure I can get you a good offer.

But, you will have to pay for the damages to the car.

- All of them? - Yes.

Well, doesn't she have insurance?

I mean, I caused more damage to my own car,

and that mom is loaded.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way.

Fine. Fine. I just want it gone.

I want it to go away.

Yeah.

Now, you didn't eat blowfish?

Fugu's a white, delicate fish with subtle flavor.

When they said I had fugu poisoning,

I just assumed it was incorporated into the dish.

Well, are you sure it wasn't? I mean, maybe he's lying.

- Chef. Please, can we talk? - After all he did for you?

I hope you're proud of yourself.

It's best not speak to him.

[tablet beeping rhythmically]

- Oh no, no! Damn it! - No, no, no. Your Honor.

Oh.

I got distracted and missed the prompt again.

I'm never going to finish this thing.

I'm sorry your day is so full on your birthday.

No, it is not your fault. It's mine.

I put it off too long, and here I am.

- Can I ask you something? - Sure.

Am I reading too much into it, or does this plain

"“Happy birthday"” text from Rachel feel a little odd?

No sorority picture, no Beyonce?

Exactly. Not even fireworks or heart emoji.

- Yes. Yes, that's weird. - I'm going out.

- I'll be back in 30. - What? No, no, no.

No, you have-- Uh, see, you have to finish

your JRC courses, okay?

You-- you have to leave on time for your--

For your birthday dinner.

Yeah, but I'm in desperate need of some fresh air

and some froyo.

You know what? I'll go, you keep working.

Nah, I kind of want to take the walk.

Promise, I'll be quick. Strawberry and coffee?

No. Yes, please. With sprinkles.

So, look.

Alma is a hardworking single mom

with no prior contacts with law enforcement.

She is regretful and willing to pay for damages.

This was not a malicious act.

It was a busy mom who wasn't paying attention.

She pays restitution for the damages to the car,

one year summary probation with minimal conditions

for the hit and run misdemeanor.

How about she plead to the misdemeanor

and earn a dismissal by paying the restitution?

No, I won't give her a diversion.

A few months ago, Ms. Ellington got into another argument

with another parent at her prep school and slashed her tire.

It seems like your client has a anger issue.

Uh, uh-- That was not in her rap sheet.

I got a call from the school about it this morning.

That parent got wind that Ms. Ellington was trying

to apologize her way out of this one, too.

Okay. I don't know anything about that.

But, how about you add anger management

and allow her to do diversion?

I'm not changing my offer, Lopez.

Fine. Honestly, I don't even know why I bother sometimes

because I-- It's like, I can stand here--

You seem agitated. You all right?

I'm fine. Everything's fine.

'Cause if you want to tell me anything--

I'm good. Thanks Callan, pleasure as always.

- MARK: Have a great day. - EMILY: Sorry, excuse me. Sorry.

All right. Take care now.

And how long has your father owned and run Kainami Sushi?

18 years.

His father was a sushi chef, as was his father.

Kainami is his life and his legacy.

- Are you a chef there, too? - Yes.

I, uh, was training in New York when COVID hit,

and I, uh, I came home to help out.

But a few weeks after we reopened,

my father got COVID.

I ran Kainami while he recovered.

AMY: Thank you.

You and your father believe that Mr. Renalto

is trying to ruin your father's business, correct?

Objection. Speculation.

Overruled.

It's a big city, and he opened a restaurant 200 yards away?

Is that when your father came up with the plan

to kill his former protege?

- Objection. Speculation. - Sustained.

No. He would never risk our lives

or the business for revenge.

Besides, Paolo was like a son to my father.

Except for when they fought, right?

My father is a perfectionist. He demands it from all of us.

Is your father known for arguing with

and ejecting customers who want to make off menu requests?

Objection. Relevance? Improper character evidence.

- Overruled. - Showing you People's Four.

Have you seen your father behave in this way

towards customers in the past?

HIROTO: Get the hell out.

If you don't respect the food, you don't deserve to eat it.

You come back, you will regret it!

YUMA: Dad.

YUMA: Dad. Dad!

- Objection. Foundation, hearsay. - Overruled.

I was able to get you a decent offer.

You would plead to a misdemeanor for a year of probation,

and you would have to pay for the damages to the car.

- Okay. Thank you. - Okay. Good. You're welcome.

But I-- I do need to ask, why didn't you tell me

that another mom claims that you slashed her tire

after an argument at a PTA meeting?

A complaint was filed at the school.

[Alma chuckling]

Beatrice Ross Miller is a righteous bitch.

She had the audacity to accuse me

of stealing from a fund raiser.

- And I just-- - Lost your temper?

I understand that your husband passed away suddenly last year.

I'm so sorry. How are you and your daughters holding up?

Anya and Kemi are my light.

They are sweet humans and great students.

Kemi is a lacrosse player and Anya is the soccer captain.

Their father never missed a game,

a recital, a teacher conference.

Not one.

Yeah. Losing him was devastating for all of us.

I can-- I-- I can only imagine.

- Do you have any kids? - Uh, no.

Mm-mm. No. No, I don't.

Well, when you do, you'll understand.

They shape your future and run your life in the best ways.

Okay.

What are you doing? You told me you were leaving.

You're supposed to go home, get ready for dinner.

Ah, I still need to finish my last course,

so I just skip the champagne and meet Robin at the restaurant.

Besides, why fight traffic to get all the way home

just to turn around and go back to Hollywood?

Right. But don't you need to change?

What's wrong with what I'm wearing?

Nothing. Nothing. You look beautiful.

I just thought you should relax at home.

I will relax once I finish my recertification.

But you, go.

I know how much you hate leaving your dad alone at night.

No. You know, I'll stay with you.

No. Just because I'm stuck here doesn't mean you should be.

Now, take a truffle and go home.

- Tell your dad I said, "“Hi."” - Thank you.

Mmm, yum, deli-- Happy birthday.

- Thank you. Good night. - SHERRI: Good night.

- Hi, beautiful. - Hi. You ready?

- We are going to be late. - [phone chiming]

This is the second time today Vic has texted me.

Your dad reaching out isn't a bad thing, Mark.

This is Vic we're talking about, Amy.

Any time he reaches out is suspect.

Maybe he's asking about the wedding.

Oh, speaking of which, did you get the rough draft

of the Save the Date I emailed you today?

- What Save the Date? - You didn't get it?

- No. - [phone chiming]

Oh, thank you Mark, thanks.

But, once I finish this requirement,

I'm meeting Robin at Mother Wolf for dinner.

Yes.

Excuse me? Counseling?

I'm not some head case off the street.

You do realize that.

But Alma, you qualified for a public defender,

which means that you are struggling financially.

And more importantly, I suspect emotionally.

My husband was my best friend.

When he died, I found out he invested

all of our money and lost everything.

So, I do not appreciate being shamed

for requesting free counsel, which is my right.

Hold on a second. Alma, that's not what I--

I am so sorry.

I cannot imagine how hard this has been,

but therapy could help.

Yeah, well, I don't have the time or the resources.

So, sitting on some couch complaining about my life

isn't going to pay the mortgage or the kids' tuition.

Thank you for negotiating the plea agreement.

I appreciate your time.

I understand that you're unable to reach a verdict.

- Is that correct? - Yes, Your Honor.

Do you think additional time deliberating

would assist the jury?

- No, I do not, Your Honor. - Very well.

Then I will find that the jury is hopelessly deadlocked.

You all are excused from further jury service in this case.

Thank you for your service.

Your Honor, the defense would like

to make a motion to dismiss.

Mr. Berger?

We oppose the motion, Your Honor.

I will take the motion under submission.

In the meantime, I think this is an opportune time

to reflect on what makes a family.

Some of the strongest bonds we have

are not limited to people we share bloodline with.

Our chosen family can be just as significant, if not more so.

Mr. Kudo, Ms. Kudo, Mr. Renalto, perhaps you will take

this additional time that you've been afforded

to have an open and honest conversation.

It's at least worth a try

before 12 new strangers decide your fate.

We are adjourned.

What if it was an accident? Will the charges be dropped?

Um, without proof, I-- I don't think so.

Am I allowed to speak to Hiroto?

Oh, well, I don't know if I would.

♪

I'm sorry.

- Ah! - Oh, wow. Yes. Thank you!

- I am starving. - Mm-hmm.

- I got your favorite. - Thank you.

LUKE: Yas.

- So, um-- Did you uh-- - Uh, not yet.

But, I will.

So, I realize that we uh...

We haven't had the kid conversation.

I know. I know,

and this isn't exactly the most ideal place to have it.

But, okay, the truth is,

I have never had a burning desire to be a mom.

Really? Wow.

I always assumed you wanted a big family with like,

eight kids and three dogs.

[Emily chuckling] Me? No.

- Is that what you want? - Not eight, for sure, but...

Oh. Um...

Honestly, um,

I just-- I just never planned on having kids.

I just-- I love this.

I-- I love what we do. I love it.

It's-- it's a part of me, and I am dedicated to it.

Maybe I'll feel differently one day.

But right now, I just-- I don't see kids in my life.

I just, I-- I don't.

- [phone buzzing] - How-- how do you feel?

- [phone buzzing] - Well--

[phone chiming twice]

Damn, I am so sorry.

I need to help Carol put out a fire.

- I'll be back soon. - Yeah.

Save me an eggroll.

I promise.

Berger. The jury deadlocked?

Yes. Ms. Quinn made a motion to dismiss,

and Judge Carmichael took it under submission.

What do you recommend?

The tox report is solid and the chef's temper

is well documented.

It's also possible the chef may have hid

the blowfish poison in another cut of fish,

but there's no way to prove that it wasn't just a mistake.

Doesn't seem like we have a strong enough case anymore.

Let's dismiss. Are you sure?

- We can still-- - I'm sure, but uh, good work.

Callan.

[Clayton clearing throat]

It must be killing you to not know who he's going to pick.

Should have taken your shot, Mark.
