[Billy]: The Law Society
Disciplinary Committee.

- It's an invitation
to my execution.

[Beckbie]: He feels like
he has a home here.

[woman]: I just don't think
it's healthy to give a boy

who's been through what he's
been through false expectations.

- Dee needs money.
She was groomed and trafficked

as a kid. Now she has nothing,
and nowhere to go.

You're gonna wanna think real
hard about your next move, Wes.

- Yeah?
- They really don't like it

when someone trespasses
on an officer's property.

[woman]: There are always more.
You have no idea

what he's capable of.

- Then we just have
to find them.

- What are you gonna do?
- We're gonna sue them

for human trafficking.

- Is this a joke?
- Deal's different.

We're not willing
to pay cash for it.

[Joanna]: They never did
a geological survey.

That's how they were able
to rush through phase one.

They didn't do any of the work.

When they reopened that mine,

they falsified
all of their documents, Billy.

- We know there's something
the mine doesn't want us

to find out, but I don't think
it's the trafficking.

You said it yourself,
it's a literal gold mine.

What if it isn't?
- There's no gold.

- Can we talk about this?
- There's nothing to talk about.

- We don't have
anything concrete.

- The mayor said it
at the ceremony,

Millwood is into the mine.

We have a responsibility
to figure out how.

- Not today, we don't.

- Billy, this is a big deal.

Why are you pretending
like it isn't?

- Why are you pretending
like your hearing

isn't tomorrow morning?
I'm not say--

Look, why don't you just
show me what you have

for the committee?
- I'm still tweaking it.

- Well, show me
what you got so far,

and maybe I can
help you finish it.

- It's okay.
I don't need your help.

- We're in this together.

Crawford Chang. Remember?
[door opening]

- Hello!

- Come in!
- Not a good time!

- Grand-pops to the rescue.

- Thank you, Hank.
We really appreciate it.

- Do we?

- Don't worry, son. It's not my
first time through a childhood.

- Yeah, that's what
I'm worried about.

[baby crying]
- Oh, that's my cue.

Park's okay?
- Yes.

- Okay.

- Seriously?
- We have work to do.

- What's this?

- The assayer's report
on the mine.

- Joanna...
- He said there was gold

in the mine. This one person

is where this all started.

Billy...

This could be my last day
as a lawyer.

- If you don't focus
on your hearing,

it almost certainly will be.

Alright. Where do we start?

[soft mysterious music]

- It's called Mokomon.

- You scared me.

- You know, after the whole
truck incident,

I figured you'd ask
before taking things.

- I was just drawing.

- I found it in a museum.

It was my great, great uncle's.

Ambroise Lepine.
War Chief to Louis Riel.

- How'd you get it back?

- Oh, I...

told the curator it was cursed

with the death
of ten million buffalo.

[laughing]

- Dee, I'm thinking about
hanging a painting right here.

I don't know,
what do you think?

What's it like outside?

Is it cold, or is it cold, cold?

What's wrong?

- I found this
by the front door.

- Wesley?
- Yeah.

It makes my skin crawl.

You know, as long
as he's out there,

I'll never be safe.

I-I can't do this.

Every time the house
even creaks,

I feel like my heart's
gonna pop out of my chest.

- Dee...

[soft music]

It's okay.
- It's definitely not okay.

It's never going to end.

- No, Dee, it's going to end.

We're gonna find him,
and we're gonna lock him up.

First you need to think...

Was there anything
that you didn't tell us?

Maybe where he could be?

- We were just at the motel.
That's it.

- Does he have any family?

- They're all in Alberta.

He used to come to Millwood
a lot as a kid.

- He must have been
visiting someone.

[inhaling deeply]

- Maybe check the payroll again.

See there's anything we missed.

Anyone we can put between
the women and the mine.

- I have already looked.
Several times.

[sighing]

I thought Joanna
was supposed to help us?

- I don't know.
Something must've come up.

[sighing]

I can't just sit here
doing nothing.

We need to actually go there.

- Well, the place has been
on full lockdown

since the cops showed.

- That wouldn't stop Joanna.

- Well, Joanna's not here,
remember?

Just me.

[Luna whispering]: Taylor?

- What about her?

- We got shuffled out
when the police arrived,

but she didn't.

- She is the police.

She can't tell us anything.

- Yeah, maybe, but...

she was my best friend
before she became a cop.

[soft curious music]

- Matheson, you're looking
into Wesley Salazar?

- Yeah. He came here
to Millwood as a kid.

- Your hunch was right.
He got into some trouble.

- Vandalism, shoplifting...

I thought youth records
were sealed?

- Unless you commit
an adult crime

before they're sealed.
It's a glitch.

[indistinct radio chatter]

Arrest record has an address.

- Local?
- A farm up near Sparrow Creek.

- Thank you.

- I hope it helps.

[phone ringing]

- Millwood Police,
how can I help?

- Did you write about
Matheson Steel?

It's probably
the best indication

of how much
you've changed, right?

They just want to see
that you've undergone

a transformation.

Northward Forest
was a lifetime ago--

- Just stop.

I know that you're
trying to help.

I need to focus
on this case right now.

- Pretending this isn't real
won't make it go away.

- I know that, Billy.

[knocking]

- Do you have a second, sir?

I got a promising lead
on Wesley.

A farm up near Sparrow Creek.

- Well, when Thorpe is back,
go check it out.

I don't want you going
up there alone.

[softly]: Copy.

- Is that it?

- No...

Is everything
alright with you, sir?

- Sure.

- I've just been covering
phones this morning, and...

there was a complaint.

- Uh, just leave it on my desk.

Matheson, what is it?

- It's a complaint about you.

A Mr. Terry Clark
said that you...

threatened him
and kidnapped a boy.

[clearing throat]

Chief?
- What did you tell him?

- I took the call, I have
to follow up on the complaint.

It's my duty.
- Mm-hmm.

Right, of course. Uh, just...

- I'm obligated under
the Police Services Act

to notify the Independent
Investigation Unit.

- I need you sit on it.

[suspenseful music]

I'll go talk to him.

- We could both...
- Lose our jobs.

I won't let that happen.

Just buy me a few hours.

- Um, about the Wesley matter,

I have to look into that first.

Exigent circumstances.

- We don't do
the actual drilling.

We take the samples,
and, uh...

test them to see
if there are certain

valuable elements within them.

- How do you test for that?

- Well, there's a few ways.
We use fire

to burn away the refuse
and determine the purity

of metals in the ground.

- So after the samples
are drilled,

you handle them?

- I oversee the samples
from the site

all the way through
the testing process.

- And how accurate
are the results?

- Fire doesn't lie,

and we triple check all our work
to isolate any anomalies.

What is it you're testing for?

I could be more specific.

- You handled the assays
for the Oro-North 1 mine?

[soft curious music]

- Mr. Gurriel?

- No. Well, yes. Sorry.

We did handle the assays
for the mine, yes.

- Um... But you...

were the assayer
for those tests?

- We did them, yes.

- No, I'm just asking
if you personally

handled those samples.

[Taylor]: So if you tie someone
from the mine to the women,

you can sue them?

- We're trying to, yes,
but we're out of names.

I don't want to ask you
to do anything

that'll put you
or your job at risk, but--

- Stewart Atherton.

- What was that?

- He was one of
the security guards

who was definitely
hiding something, but...

[beeping]
...we didn't have enough

information to hold him.

According to the police,
no crimes were being committed.

- Uh, any, anything you have--

[Taylor]: Yep, here it says

that he filed a missing
persons report on his daughter

three years ago.

- Know where we can find him?

- No, I don't have an address,
but...

I'm pretty sure he's back
at work, if you can believe it.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

We let him go, so I'm not
giving you anything official.

Besides, I'm tired on waiting
for justice to show up.

I gotta go.

- Okay, thanks.
[beeping]

[sighing]
Okay.

- Does the party ever end?

- Only when you show up, Chief.

Where's my boy?

- You filed a complaint
against me?

- That's some good
detective work there.

I ain't a cop,
but seems fishy to investigate

a complaint about yourself.

- Last time I was here...

maybe it wasn't the right move.
I get it.

- That's your version
of an apology?

- I'm trying to make
things right.

I want to give Kip a good home.

- A regular Mother Theresa.

Different kinda Indian,
I guess.

- How do we make this go away?

Money?

- Bring another one
of those wads around,

and I'll drop the complaint.
- That's extortion.

- So is your coming to my house.

- I'm not asking you
for anything.

- You want the kid.
- And you obviously don't.

- Don't matter what I want.
Court says he's rightfully mine.

- And you really think
you can provide for him?

- He'll grow up same as I did.
He'll figure it out.

- Or die trying.

I know you're selling Oxy.

One phone call, and your
little plan goes up in smoke.

- Do your worst, man.

Unlike you,
I got nothing to lose.

[tense music]

- "There are substantial
gold deposits left

in the property
obtained by Oro-North 1

for the purposes of mining."

The mine made this claim
based on your reports.

- If it's in the report,
then that's what I said.

- Is there something that you
aren't telling us, Mr. Gurriel?

- No.

- That's it? No?

- Were you party to,
or aware of,

any action to falsify
the samples

taken from the property
owned by Oro-North?

- I'm going to have
to ask you to leave. Now.

- What did you do
to the samples, George?!

[tense music]

Do you have any idea
the damage you've caused?

- I'm calling security.

[Billy]: That won't
be necessary.

We're done here.

- He did it, Billy.
We have to tell the mayor.

- Yeah, he obviously did it,

but that doesn't mean
we have to move on this today.

- Tillman gets George to say
that the mine is full of gold.

People invest millions in stock,
and then he walks away rich,

claiming it was a mistake.
- Joanna.

We have to talk about
your defence.

You just tell me the plan,
and I'll drop it,

then we can do
whatever you want.

You don't have anything.

- I can't.
I don't know what to say.

- It's okay. We still have
time to build a defence.

- There is no defence.

- You were a different lawyer
then, a different person.

- Billy, they are not gonna
see it that way.

- Why are you willing to fight
for everyone but yourself?!

- I have one day left
as a lawyer, that's it.

I'm not going to waste it
fighting for myself

when I don't even know
if I deserve to be one.

The old Joanna,
the one who's on trial,

she would've put her career
ahead of all of this.

She did.

I am not gonna let
another town be destroyed

so that I can keep my job.

- It's not a job.

It's our life.

[soft music]

- Oh, come on.
- The mine is lying.

- You sound like
a broken record.

- You forced through faulty
environmental appraisals, why?

- Look, I am trying
my very hardest

to breathe economic life
back into this town.

- No, why did you need to?

- We have reason to believe
that the samples were salted.

That there is no gold
in the mine,

and that Tillman knows.
[Freeman scoffing]

- Wow, you will say anything,
won't you?

- Have you seen any gold?

- No, but I haven't seen
any Pine Martens either.

Look, whatever it is
that you're doing, it's done.

Okay? It's over. There's going
to be a mine in Millwood.

[Billy]: That's what
we're saying. There isn't.

- Mayor Freeman...

I swear on my daughter's life,
this is real.

- Okay, I'll bite.

Why do you think
there's no gold?

- The assayer was lying.
If we leaned on his samples,

they wouldn't stand up.
- That's not enough.

Look, Millwood is buying
into the mine.

I-I'm not gonna shut down

a deal worth millions
on a hunch.

- Wait, that deal hasn't
gone through yet?

- The closing is today.

I thought that's why
you were here.

- Who's he?

- Uh, we think he was the one

that was letting
the vans through.

- Why do you think that?

- Taylor's pretty sure he had
something to do with it.

- Shouldn't she arrest him,
then?

- She can't. It's complicated.

- If we could get enough
to sue him,

we could dig up more.
Then maybe they'd arrest him.

- Okay, then what do you
need from me?

- If you could just place him.

If you saw him do anything.

- Alright. That's him.
He did it, then.

- Did what?

- You tell me.

- We don't want you to lie.

- I was in the back of a van
and all messed up.

[tense music]

Maybe if I heard his voice.

[Billy]: How much do you
wanna bet he destroyed

the core samples too?

- There goes our evidence.

[Freeman breathing heavily]

- Oh, what did I do?

No, no, no, no, no, no.

- You knowingly entered
into the agreement.

- You've gotta be kidding me.

- I'm sorry, the money
is already in escrow,

and I can't pull it now
without cause.

I told you that
when you signed the deal.

- Yeah, but that was before
I found out

that he was ripping me off!

- Uh, can you prove
that he's committed fraud?

[sighing]

- Yeah, okay. Okay, so...

So, so what?
The money is just sitting there

in your account and there's
nothing you can do about it?

- I'm an escrow agent,
not a judge.

If you find something
that shows they lied

when they made the deal,

then you could back out.

Proof of anything, really,
but you need something.

And I would hurry, the deal
closes at six o'clock today.

[Freeman scoffing]

- I bet an hour
after the deal closes,

the money's in the Caymans,
and Tillman is on a plane.

[Freeman]: No, it's all there.
It is, it's all there.

- What's all there?

- Millwood's reserves.

He offered me, Millwood,

a chance to get in
on the ground floor.

This is everything
that the town needed, so I...

I gave him everything
the town had.

Millwood is bankrupt.

[tense music]

- I can fix this.

I know it's a long shot,
but I can help Millwood.

Billy, they want to hang me

for what happened
in North Falls,

I can't let that
happen again here.

- Joanna...

Are you really willing
to risk everything

to save a town that's gonna
hate you for saving it?

- You want me to fight?

Help me prove
that I am worth fighting for.

- You caught her
on the right day.

- Wh... Why is that?

- It doesn't matter.

Mayor Freeman, we are yours

until six o'clock tonight.

- Oh, thank God.

[breathing heavily]

- No loopholes, no escape plan.
It's airtight.

- The closing's in...
- No, we can still do this.

We just need to find
any kind of proof.

- How do you prove
that something doesn't exist?

A whistleblower?

- Seems like only
Tillman and the assayer

are in on it. And Tillman's
a non-starter,

and the assayer is gone,

along with the core samples,
which frankly,

is the proof we needed.

- So, new core samples.
We drill our own,

pull them up against
the results of the old ones.

- Okay, how do we do that?
- I might have a guy.

- New core samples
would point to fraud,

it wouldn't prove it.

But either way,
we could say that the deal

was done on false information.
That could actually work.

- His phone's off.
But it's ten minutes away.

- I'll keep looking
for something.

- I know.

- I'll buy you
as much time as possible.

[cell phone ringing]

[cell phone beeping]

- Hi, Chief.

[Beckbie]: I wanted you to know
the issue with the complaint

has been resolved.

- That's great, sir.

- I appreciate your discretion.
It was just a misunderstanding.

- You don't need
to explain that to me.

- I owe you one. Where are you?

- I'm at Sparrow Creek,
but I'm just...

I'm just taking a look.

- Any sign of him?

- No sign. There's no sign
of anyone.

But it's a big property.

I need to get closer.

- Don't try and do this
alone, Taylor.

Taylor!

- I just want to see
if he's here.

I'll radio you
if I need backup.

- Just be safe.

[phone beeping]

[soft mysterious music]

- You sure you want to do this?

[sighing]

- Luna said it's worth a shot.

As long as Terry signs.

This could get ugly.

[soft music]

- It's a crazy theory.
There are things put in place--

- A neutral, reputable
third party.

- I've worked with EMP assayers
before, they're straight.

- You ever worked
with George Gurriel?

As far as I can tell,
the process is only ever

one corrupt geologist away
from a misfire.

- Billy, this is a heavy
accusation.

Things like this don't happen.
- Often.

They don't happen often,
but you and I both know,

they've happened before.

Why else do you think
they stopped the digging, Larry?

They don't want you going
down there to see for yourself.

If you don't get out
in front of this,

not only will the union
be at the leading edge

of the fallout, but there
won't be any company left

to sue for back pay.

- What do you need me to do?

[sighing]

[Luna]: There he is.

- Are you sure
you want to do this?

- This is how we get them,
right?

- It's the best shot we have.

[Dee sighing]
- Okay.

[soft mysterious music]

- There's no admittances today.

You have to turn
your car around.

- Is that him?
- Yeah.

- Mr. Atherton?
- Who's asking?

- Did you know the women
in those vans

were there against their will?

- What?

[stammering]
Is she...?

- You're damn right she is.

- Listen, I didn't, uh...

- Just 'cause you didn't
get charged with anything,

doesn't mean you got
away with it.

I'm coming for you.

I'll put your face
on the front page

of every single newspaper
that I can--

- You can't do that.
- I'm not a cop, Mr. Atherton.

I can do whatever I want.

And when the public calls
for your head,

what do you think the cops
are gonna do then?

- I didn't do anything.
- Don't lie to me.

Lie to her.

What would
your daughter think?

Yeah, I know she's missing.

I know that when you filed
your report,

she wasn't much younger
than Dee.

Dee.

That's her name.

Look at her.

[soft eerie music]

- Any time one of those vans
came to the... to the gate, I...

I changed the log book.
Okay? That's it.

- And what did you
get out of it?

- My job.

[scoffing]

I'm barely holding it
together here.

So when the security company
hired me, I just...

Listen, I knew it was bad...

But I didn't know it was women.

So, I didn't know,
I swear I didn't know...

- Wait, you don't work
for the mining company?

- Crosstower Securities.

- The mine wasn't aware of it?

- I don't think so.
- Then you're useless to me.

- Alright, they're here.
Tell me you have something.

- Environmental reports,
Elise's original opinion letter,

which is ironic,
but not helpful.

I need ten more minutes.
- You don't have ten minutes.

Okay look, I know you think
I should've listened to you,

but you weren't right either.

You put one person's farm
over the well-being

of the entire town.

- This is clearly about more
than Helen's farm.

- Yeah. Yeah, it is.

But you didn't know that,
did you?

[cell phone ringing]

- Hi.

- They're on it,
but it could take hours

to drill new core samples.

- Okay, I'm out of time,
I have to go back in there.

I will delay them
as long as possible,

but, I've got nothing.
- You don't have nothing.

You just don't have proof.

I've seen you do a hell
of a lot more with a lot less.

You got this.

- Okay.

[tense music]

[Elise]: What are you
doing here?

The unemployment office
is down the hall.

[Joanna chuckling]

- I'm sure you're very
disappointed,

but I'm not dead yet. In fact,

Crawford Chang
is now representing

the town of Millwood.

Shall we get started?

- I should've seen it coming.

- Contracts are complicated
on purpose.

- No. I knew something
was off with that assayer.

- How do you mean?

- The guy got his hands
on the samples, right?

But then said he wouldn't
test them

until he talked to the owner.
- And that's unusual?

- Unusual? Yeah.

Then one of the accountants
was walking by the garage,

said he heard a fight.

Seems like a red flag
now, but...

- Do you have any
security footage?

- No.

I haven't seen it myself,

but I'm sure
we could dig it up.

- But he let us in.
He said he did.

- I know.

But he doesn't work
for the mine.

There's no connection,

which means there's no money.

- So the mine just gets
to walk away

like nothing happened?

- It looks like
they didn't know.

- Well, they damn well
should have.

I need some air.

[sliding door opening
and closing]

- What did she just say?

She said they should've known.

[tense music]

[sniffling]

Stevie, look.

At least 20 articles
that point to trafficking

and prostitution
in rural mining camps.

- So what?

They were aware this was
a consistent issue

across the industry.

They should've known.

- Reckless indifference.

Corporate negligence, even.

They ignored it so they didn't
have to spend money

addressing it.

- This can work.
- This could work.

[chuckling]

We have a statement
of claim to write.

[keyboard clicking]

[suspenseful music]

[breathing heavily]

[shivering]

[creaking]

- Help! Please!

- Don't worry.
I'm the police.

I'm gonna come get you!

[breathing heavily]

- You're here under
false pretense.

The deal's already done.

- George Gurriel
has disappeared.

[scoffing]
- Who?

- The assayer. And he took
the core samples with him.

- This is all a half-cooked way

to get your client
out of a contract.

- Why would I want to stop
Millwood from making millions?

- Do you have any proof?

- I am simply asking
that we delay

the closing of escrow
until we can get new samples

that prove
what Mr. Tillman has said.

Surely that shouldn't
be a problem

if the original samples
are accurate.

- No.

- Why are we even talking

about this?
You're in conflict of interest.

- Why the rush to get shovels
in the ground,

but now you aren't even digging?

- Her real client
is Helen Graham.

Ms. Chang has clearly
manipulated Mayor Freeman

into paranoia to get
her client's farm back.

And she's willing to take down
the entire town to do so.

- Helen Graham
is no longer my client

because she is in a coma.

One of the mine's employees
ran her off the road.

- I'm here solely for Millwood,

and as its new counsel,

I am asking you
to remake all your terms.

- You want to remake the terms?

That's a formality!
- Since you're here.

- This is an abuse
of her position.

We came here as a courtesy,
for a celebration.

- I'm sorry, Ms. Chang.

So far, I don't see
any proof of fraud,

or any reason to force
the other parties,

myself included,
to sit through--

- You have to let me state--
- Again, not a judge.

[Elise]: We're leaving.

- What were you planning?

Claim you made a mistake,
and then walk away

with everything? Or were you
gonna pin it on the assayer

and play it like you were
the one who was conned?

- You know,
for such a clever girl,

you forgot to do one thing...

Prove it.

[tense music]

- There isn't anything
in the garage,

but they have a camera
on every door.

- Are there any other entrances?

[keyboard clicking]

[tense music]

[chuckling]

- What happened?

- Where are the files
from before?

- My assistant took them away.

- Go get them, now.

[phone chiming]

- Okay, why are you smiling?

- I have a plan.

[sighing]

Billy, I love you.

Go, now!

- Uh, okay.

[wind howling softly]

[breathing heavily]

[eerie music]

[radio beeping]

[radio static]

- Beckbie.

Beckbie, I--
[screaming]

[thudding, man groaning]

[chuckling]
- What are you gonna do?

Shoot me?!

- I'd be doing
the world a favour.

- I don't think so.
- Don't come any closer!

[gun clicking]

You hurt people,

and you get away with it.

Not today.

Not ever again.

Drop the knife now!

Turn around.

Get down on the ground.

- She's not gonna talk.

I'm inside her head.

- She's stronger
than you think.

- Wait.

[Tillman]: Oh, come on.

Isn't this harassment?

- I have a few more questions.

[Cheryll]: Ms. Chang,
this is getting ridiculous.

- Do you have any reason
to believe that George Gurriel

would have falsified the samples
he took from your mine?

- Don't answer that.
- No, it's fine, this is over.

No.

- Did you have a prior
relationship with him?

- The assayer?
The company hired him.

I've never met the guy.
- Hmm.

Are you paying attention?

When we filed a stop work
motion for 30 days,

you fought us tooth and nail

to get 10 days taken off that.

Now you're free and clear,
only you aren't digging.

[chuckling]
- Is that a question?

- You'll know when
I'm asking you a question.

It was never about the mine.

You fought our injunction
because it meant

that you couldn't enter into
a private sale with Millwood.

The geologist whose samples

were the basis for the mine's
feasibility study

has disappeared.

So, I have had
independently drilled

new core samples.

They're on the way
to the lab as we speak.

It's only gonna take
a few hours.

Are you willing to wait?

I mean, that's a question.

- This is insane.

I mean...

is this charade
going to convince you

of anything other
than her being crazy?

- She's not convincing her.

- You want to make this deal?

I will agree right here,
right now,

if you agree to remake
one single specific term.

This is the original
opinion letter

signed by the mine's lawyer,
Elise Mills,

stating that from her
professional perspective,

everything...

in the mine's claim
appears to be true.

Are you willing
to re-sign that letter?

[tense music]

- Of course she is.

- Your reputation is why
people hire you.

A reputation not just
for your legal expertise,

but for your due diligence,

and for your word.

- I haven't seen anything
that would put me

in a compromising position.

- I have here a video

of Mr. Tillman meeting
with George Gurriel,

the man that he just stated
he had never met.

The man who has disappeared

with the core samples
in question, and the kicker,

that video was taken the day
those samples were drilled.

- What?

This is not a court.
I don't have to say anything.

- No, you don't.

But Elise does.

Elise has an ethical
duty to uphold.

I know how much weight

one of these letters can carry,

and I'm pretty sure Elise
does too.

Are you willing to re-sign
your opinion letter?

- Of course she is.

- This is it, Elise.

One last choice.
This case, beating me.

Or the rest of your career.

- I, uh...

...regretfully withdraw
my opinion letter,

and opt to step back
from the transaction.

- You stupid--

- Millwood was acting
on the good faith

of the mine and its counsel.

That good faith has been broken.

We move to withdraw
from the sale.

[sighing]

- So in conclusion,

the Defendants unjustly
enriched themselves

and deprived the Plaintiff
of safety

whilst on said property,

causing harm and irreparable
emotional trauma.

The Plaintiff therefore claims
against the Defendant

as described in paragraph one.

- It's more dramatic
in the movies, but...

still sweet.

[whispering]: We did it.

- You did it.

- What are you doing?

- You know I came here
for you, right?

- Yeah...

- Look, today I saw this

beautiful, smart, amazing lawyer

pull off something incredible.

But...

I also saw what our future
might look like,

and it reminded me
of my parents.

I know they're rich, but...

You know, my parents also
haven't had a meal together

since I was nine.

Not because
they don't love each other.

- Stevie, it's just this case.

- Yeah, but there's always
gonna be another case.

Look, if this
is gonna work, like,

for the long haul,

then I'm gonna need
some place in your life.

- Are you breaking up with me?

[soft music]

- I see a future with you, I do.

But...

I think that you need
to figure out

what that future looks like.

For you.

Maybe we can just
take it from there.

I'm going back to Winnipeg.

[soft music]

[breathing heavily]

[door unlocking]

- Wait.

[sighing]

I, uh...

I couldn't figure out
why you hated me so much.

I thought I was your mentor,
but you just kept coming.

- Look, Joanna, you won, okay?
So just, just leave me alone.

- When I was going through
the evidence for my own trial,

I realized that...

...I was never supposed
to be a mentor.

[Elise scoffing]

David Hanley was my father,

he was my mentor, and so...

I did what he did,
and what he did was...

You did the right thing today.

Something that I wasn't
capable of

when I was put
in the same position.

You are a better lawyer
than I am.

You always were.

[door opening and closing]

- Kip, we have something
we want to tell you.

Uh, we figured out a way
for you to stay.

For good.
- Or as long as you need.

- We're, um...

We're going to adopt you.

- Why would I want that?

[soft music]

- Uh...

[door opening and closing]

- No...

- It's official.
As of 9:01 this morning,

Oro-North 1 filed
for bankruptcy.

They're dissolving.
- Oh, we knew that was coming.

- We did.

- Hank got us groceries.

[Joanna sighing]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

No? Oh...
[baby crying]

- We're gonna be okay, right?

- We have a plan, a good one.

- No.

But...

We're gonna be okay.

- We are.

- Aww...
[knocking at door]

Oh, that's... That's Luna.

I told her to swing by.
[baby crying]

- Do you want me
to break it to her?

- Yeah.

- Hey. It's okay.

[baby crying in the distance]

- Oh, come here.

[crying]
You did a great job.

You did.

- The mine's gone.

Dee's not gonna get anything.

- This was completely
out of your control.

- I promised her.

I promised her
I would help her get justice.

And I failed her.

I failed all of those women.
- Luna, you did not.

You didn't fail them.

Hey.

Where's Stevie?

Okay, listen to me.

This is going to be fine.

I know. I know...

that it feels like
everything right now.

Trust me, I know that.

But you're just starting out.

[breathing heavily]

[whispering]:
I was just trying to do

what I thought
you would've done.

- Well...

maybe that was your problem.

- Does this ever get easier?

- Definitely...

...not. Um...

At least not yet.

When I look at
what you did,

it reminds me why I wanted
to be a lawyer

in the first place.

This world is not ready
for Luna Spence.

Okay.

- Ms. Chang...

This is a preliminary inquiry

into your continued
ethical fitness

in the practice of law.

A complaint has been
made against you

to the Manitoba Bar Association.

This hearing is to determine
whether you will be sent

for a full trial
to the Disbarment Committee.

Do you understand?
- Yes.

- Is this your counsel?
- Yes. William Crawford.

I'll be representing Ms. Chang
in this hearing.

- Very good.
- We have a prepared statement

we would like to read
into the record.

- In due course, Mr. Crawford.

You have been accused
of conduct unbecoming a lawyer.

And, Ms. Chang,
the allegations are troubling.

Members of the legal profession
must uphold

the twin pillars
of honesty and integrity.

- My client is facing
disbarment

the loss of her career
and livelihood.

She should be afforded
an opportunity to speak.

[soft music]

- The committee
will hear her statement.

- I love being a lawyer.

It is, um...

It's an honour...

and a privilege.

But...

I have not fulfilled my oath,

and I have failed to uphold

the duties and responsibilities
of the practice of law.

So I respectfully...

resign my license.
