IT'S SOMETHING
UNATTAINABLE

THAT YOU CAN'T
LIVE WITHOUT

ARE YOU MY GUIDES?

I'M ELI STONE.

ELI STONE.

I ARRANGED A TREK THROUGH
THE RANIKHET TRAVEL AGENCY.

I'M GOING TO THE BASE
OF THE PANCH CHULI PEAKS.

THAT'S A LAPTOP, SO YOU--
YOU KNOW, YOU MIGHT WANNA...

I'LL--I'LL CARRY
THIS ONE MYSELF.

THANK YOU. I GOT IT.
THANKS.

AND YOU'VE GOTTA FIND A WAY
TO BE OKAY

HEY, IT'S ME ELI.

I'VE GOT A LOT TO SAY,
BUT I'M A LITTLE UNDERDRESSED

FOR THE ALTITUDE,
SO I PROMISE TO BE BRIEF.

I'M FINE. I'M OKAY.

I'M ALL RIGHT.

I'M JUST GONNA--
I'M GONNA WALK FOR A WHILE.

I'VE BEEN SITTING
FOR THE LAST 30 HOURS, SO...

I'M A LAWYER.

I WORK AT
WETHERSBY, POSNER & KLEIN

IN SAN FRANCISCO.

UNLESS YOU OWN A HUGE COMPANY

THAT'S SCREWED OVER
A LITTLE GUY,

YOU PROBABLY HAVEN'T
HEARD OF US.

WOW. GUYS? GUYS, COULD--
GUYS? GUYS?

GUYS, COULD YOU--
COULD YOU TAKE MY PICTURE?

HERE, UH, THIS--THIS--
THAT LIGHT'S GONNA COME ON

WHEN IT'S READY TO FLASH.

IS ANYBODY'S GUESS

WHAT DO YOU THINK--
SUNGLASSES?

YOU NEED TO WORRY

NO, NO SUNGLASSES.

LET'S SEE--
LAWYER, SAN FRANCISCO...

OH, DID I MENTION I RECENTLY
FOUND OUT I COULD BE A PROPHET?

YEAH, I WAS SHOCKED, TOO.

SEE, UNTIL RECENTLY,

MY BELIEF IN A HIGHER POWER
WAS LIMITED TO WORSHIPPING

THE HOLY TRINITY OF ARMANI...

ACCESSORIES...

AND, MY PERSONAL FAVORITE,

AMBITION.

OKAY, SO MAYBE
I WASN'T EXACTLY SAINTLIKE.

BUT I DIDN'T MIND THAT

I WASN'T THE IDEALISTIC KID
I USED TO BE.

I WAS TOO BUSY
BEING THAT GUY--

YOU KNOW,
THE GUY YOU SEE IN AN OFFICE

OR ACROSS THE RESTAURANT
AND YOU THINK,

"THAT GUY HAS IT ALL."

HELL, I THOUGHT I DID.

AND THEN I HEARD THE MUSIC.

INSERT CAPTION.
OPENING PARAGRAPH.

DEFENDANT BEUTEL PHARMACEUTICAL,
COMMA, INC., I-N-C PERIOD,

COMMA, SPACE.

OPENING PAREN, HEREINAFTER,

QUOTE, BEUTEL,
CLOSE QUOTE, CLOSE PAREN...

PURSUANT TO RULES 26 AND 33
OF THE FEDERAL RULES--

PATTI!

THERE'S AN INTERCOM, BRANDO.

I SWEAR, IT'S LIKE
WE WORK IN A CLEANERS.

DO YOU HEAR THAT MUSIC?
IT'S BEEN PLAYING ALL MORNING.
WHAT MUSIC?

THERE WAS MUSIC PLAYING.

I WAS WONDERING MAYBE
YOU COULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

YOU WANT ME TO DO SOMETHING
ABOUT MUSIC I CAN'T HEAR?

FORGET IT.
30 HERE?

THEY'RE
IN THE CONFERENCE ROOM.

ALSO, THE FIANCEé CALLED.

TAYLOR CALLED?
WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?

YOU TOLD ME
NOT TO BOTHER YOU.

SINCE WHEN
DOES TAYLOR BOTHER ME?

WELL, ALL RIGHT,
I WAS THINKING OF ME.

OKAY, FROM NOW ON,
THERE'S A MORATORIUM

ON DISCUSSION CONCERNING
MY FUTURE WIFE.

THAT INCLUDES E-MAILS
AND NASTY FACIAL EXPRESSIONS

AND NOT TELLING ME
WHEN SHE'S ON THE PHONE.

YOU TAKE ALL THE FUN
OUT OF THIS JOB.

$60,000?

$60,000?!

SAYING THE NUMBER TWICE
DOESN'T DOUBLE IT, YOU KNOW.

Y-YOU'RE GONNA
HAVE TO ADD ANOTHER ZERO.

REALLY? OKAY.
LET'S SEE...

$60,000 PLUS ZERO EQUALS...

WAIT... $60,000!

WHAT ABOUT $80,000?

HMM... NO.

WHAT? I'M--I'M...

WHAT IS THAT,
LIKE AN ORGAN OR SOMETHING?

M-MY CELL PHONE PLAYS
"ODE TO JOY,"

BUT IT'S ON VIBRATE.
WHAT, THREE LAW DEGREES,

AND ALL YOU GUYS CAN TALK ABOUT
IS ORGAN MUSIC AND RINGTONES?

LOOK, THE ONLY REASON
I CAME HERE TODAY

WAS BECAUSE I THOUGHT
BEUTEL WAS INTERESTED

IN FINALLY DOING
THE RIGHT THING.
MS. KELLER,
YOUR CASE WAS ADJUDICATED

BY THE VACCINE COURT,
AND THEY DETERMINED

OUR CLIENT'S VACCINE
DIDN'T CAUSE YOUR SON'S AUTISM.
WOW, EXCEPT FOR "CLIENT,"
"SON" AND "AUTISM,"

JUST ABOUT EVERY WORD
IN THAT SENTENCE WAS WRONG.

FIRST, IT WASN'T
YOUR CLIENT'S VACCINE.

IT WAS A PRESERVATIVE IN IT.
IT WASN'T A COURT.

IT WAS A PROCEDURAL HOOP
I HAD TO JUMP THROUGH

IN ORDER TO GET HERE.
AND THEY DIDN'T SAY

YOUR CLIENT'S VACCINE
DIDN'T CAUSE MY SON'S AUTISM.

THEY ONLY SAID
I COULDN'T PROVE IT.
YOU STILL CAN'T.

NO CREDIBLE SCIENTIST
AND NO REPUTABLE STUDY

HAS BEEN ABLE TO PROVE
A CAUSAL CONNECTION

BETWEEN MERCURITOL AND AUTISM.

THEN WHY IS BEUTEL

THE ONLY VACCINE MANUFACTURER
WHO STILL USES IT?

YOU REALLY WANNA FIND OUT?

LOBBY BEUTEL'S BOARD
TO MAKE YOU THE C.E.O.

YOU'VE GOT ABOUT
AS MUCH CHANCE OF DOING THAT

AS YOU DO
OF WINNING THIS AT TRIAL.

IT WOULD STILL BE A TRIAL,
MR. DOWD.

AND EVEN IF THE JURY
DOESN'T BELIEVE ME,

MAYBE EVERYBODY
READING ABOUT THE TRIAL WILL,

AND MAYBE THEY'LL MAKE SURE

NOT TO USE YOUR CLIENT'S PRODUCT
TO VACCINATE THEIR KIDS.
MS. KELLER,

YOU KNOW THE FIRST THING
I LEARNED ABOUT LITIGATION?

CLIENT'S WON'T KNOW
IF YOU PAD THE BILL?

OKAY, THE SECOND THING.

LITIGATION IS ONLY ABOUT

WHAT YOU CAN PROVE
IN A COURT OF LAW.

NOW WE CAN OFFER YOU
$90,000.

I SINCERELY RECOMMEND
YOU TAKE IT

AND GET ON WITH YOUR LIFE.

$90,000's GOOD.

HEY, THE MUSIC.
D-DO YOU HEAR THE MUSIC?

YES! YES, I HEAR THE MUSIC!

NO, SERIOUSLY,
THERE'S MUSIC PLAYING.

WELL,
I GUESS IT WOULD BE NICE...

GEORGE MICHAEL!
THAT'S WHO IT IS!

GEORGE MICHAEL? WHAT THE HELL
ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

HIS SONG... UH, "FAITH."
OKAY,
NOT TO BE A PRUDE, ELI,

BUT I'VE GOT A DEPOSITION
00 TOMORROW MORNING,

SO COULD WE FORGO
THE ROLE-PLAYING THIS ONE TIME?
I'M NOT--I'M NOT ROLE-PLAYING.
IT'S HIS--IT'S HIS SONG "FAITH."

IT'S BEEN FOLLOWING ME
AROUND ALL DAY.
A SONG HAS BEEN FOLLOWING YOU?

SERIOUSLY, YOU DON'T HEAR IT?
OH, BUT I
NEED SOME TIME OFF

FROM THAT EMOTION
IF I SAY YES,
WILL YOU COME BACK TO BED?

IT'S COMING FROM
THE LIVING ROOM.
I'M GLAD SOMETHING'S COMING!

OH, WHEN THAT LOVE
COMES DOWN

WITHOUT DEVOTION

WELL, IT TAKES
A STRONG MAN, BABY

BUT I'M SHOWING THE DOOR

'CAUSE I GOTTA HAVE FAITH

I GOTTA FAITH

BECAUSE I GOTTA HAVE FAITH,
FAITH, FAITH

I GOTTA HAVE FAITH,
FAITH, FAITH

IF YOU BUILD IT,
HE WILL COME.

THAT'S NOT FUNNY, NATHAN.

MM, YEAH,
I WAS AFRAID OF THAT.

UH, IT DOESN'T LOOK GOOD,
LITTLE BROTHER.

YOU HAVE CONJOINED BUTTS
IN YOUR CRANIUM,

WHICH ACTUALLY,
IT MAKES YOU A DOUBLE-BUTTHEAD.

LOOK, ASIDE FROM
THE MILD CONCUSSION YOU GOT

WHEN YOUR HEAD
HIT THE PLANTER,

YOU ARE IN MEDICAL TERMS
WHAT WE WOULD CALL "FINE."

I-I CAN'T BE FINE.

GEORGE MICHAEL
WAS IN MY LIVING ROOM.
THERE IS NOTHING
MEDICALLY WRONG WITH YOU.

IT'S JUST STRESS.
STRESS GIVES YOU
PREMATURE GRAYS.

IT DOESN'T MAKE
LEGENDARY BRITISH POP STARS

SING THEIR GREATEST HITS
LIVE FROM YOUR COUCH.
THIS IS TYPICAL BONEHEAD ELI.

THE SECOND
YOU GET YOUR LIFE TOGETHER,

YOU THINK OF SOME WAY
TO RUIN IT. CALL MOM, WOULD YOU?

WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO
IF GEORGE MICHAEL COMES BACK?
GET AN AUTOGRAPH.

ELI?

ELI!

AND YOU SAY I YELL.
THAT'S THE NUMBER
FOR MY ACUPUNCTURIST--

DR. CHEN IN CHINATOWN.

HE'S A MIRACLE WORKER.

MY FRIEND VIV--

HE CURED HER TENNIS ELBOW
AND CONSTIPATION IN ONE VISIT.

WELL, GOOD FOR VIV. BUT I DON'T
BELIEVE IN THAT STUFF, SO...

FOR A GUY
WITH AUDITORY HALLUCINATIONS,

YOU SURE ARE JUDGMENTAL.

00 IS HERE.

00.

DON'T SPEAK.

DON'T SAY ANYTHING. PATTI!

DON'T SPEAK. IT'D BE
AN EX PARTE CONVERSATION.

YOU'RE
REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL.
NOT ANYMORE.
I FIRED HIM THIS MORNING.

THEN HAVE YOUR NEW ATTORNEY
CONTACT ME.

IN THE MEANTIME,
HAVE A NICE DAY.

PATTI CAN
VALIDATE YOUR PARKING.
I REALIZED YESTERDAY
THE ONLY WAY I CAN WIN THIS

IS IF I HAVE AN ATTORNEY
WHO PLAYS AT MATT DOWD'S LEVEL,

AND I THINK I FOUND HIM.

HE GRADUATED VALEDICTORIAN
AT STANFORD LAW,

HE CLERKED FOR GINSBURG,

AND HE'S AN EIGHTH-YEAR
ASSOCIATE AT A BLUE CHIP FIRM.
THAT'S ME.

YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT ME.
WHY--WHY YOU TALKING ABOUT ME?
BECAUSE I WANT YOU
TO TAKE MY CASE, MR. STONE.

THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
I-I CAN'T SUE MY OWN CLIENT.

THERE'S AN ENTIRE
CANON OF ETHICS PROHIBITING IT,

AND I'M PRETTY SURE
THAT THEY CALL IT A CANON

'CAUSE IT COULD KILL ME.

BLAKE vs. ELKIN,
OVERMEYER vs. FORDES,

AN ARTICLE IN THE 2003
"HARVARD LAW REVIEW."

YOU SEE, THIS IS WHY
THE INTERNET IS EVIL.

YOUR FIRM SETS UP SOMETHING
CALLED A CHINESE WALL.

LOOK...

I MIGHT BE ABLE TO SQUEEZE
AN EXTRA 10 GRAND OUT OF BEUTEL.

NOW THAT'S $100,000.

THAT VACCINE MADE MY SON SICK,
AND IT'S STILL ON THE MARKET.

BUT...

I...

I'M SORRY.

YEAH.

OH, WELL.

I HAD TO TRY... RIGHT?

BYE, ELI.

BECAUSE I PLAY THEM, TOO

OH, BUT I
NEED SOME TIME OFF

FROM THAT EMOTION

TIME TO PICK MY HEART
UP OFF THE FLOOR

OH, WHEN THAT LOVE
COMES DOWN

WITHOUT DEVOTION

WELL, IT TAKES
A STRONG MAN, BABY

BUT I'M SHOWING YOU
THE DOOR

'CAUSE I GOTTA HAVE FAITH

I GOTTA HAVE FAITH

'CAUSE I GOTTA HAVE FAITH,
FAITH, FAITH

I GOTTA HAVE FAITH,
FAITH, FAITH

BABY

I KNOW YOU'RE ASKING ME
TO STAY

SAY PLEASE, PLEASE,
PLEASE DON'T GO AWAY

YOU SAY
I'M GIVING YOU THE BLUES

MAYBE

YOU MEAN
EVERY WORD YOU SAY

CAN'T HELP
BUT THINK OF YESTERDAY

AND ANOTHER WHO TIED ME DOWN
TO THE LOVERBOY RULES

BEFORE THIS RIVER

BECOMES AN OCEAN

BEFORE YOU THROW MY HEART
BACK ON THE FLOOR

OH, OH, BABY

I RECONSIDER

MY FOOLISH NOTION

WELL,
I NEED SOMEONE TO HOLD ME

BUT I'LL WAIT
FOR SOMETHING MORE

YES, I GOTTA HAVE--

FAITH,
OOH, I GOTTA HAVE FAITH

I GOTTA HAVE FAITH, FAITH

YOUR PLACE
IS NOT THAT EASY TO LOCATE.

I MEAN, I'M NO MARKETER,

BUT A LITTLE SIGNAGE
WOULD DO YOU WONDERS.

PEOPLE WHO NEED FIND DR. CHEN.

NOW "RELAH." "CLOH" EYE.

OH, RELAX AND CLOSE MY EYES.

YOU SMART.
MUST BE GOOD LAWYER.

YOU SAY GEORGE MICHAEL
HAVE GREAT MEANING TO YOU.

UH, I-I SAY GEORGE MICHAEL
WAS IN MY LIVING ROOM.

HE DOESN'T HAVE
GREAT MEANING.

YES. YOU NO REMEMBER.

I NO REMEMBER
BECAUSE HE DOESN'T.

YOU MUST MAKE PEACE
GEORGE MICHAEL.

MAYBE I SHOULD
CALL HIS PUBLICIST.

AH!

DR. CHEN HELP YOU REMEMBER.

IS THIS YOUR FIRST TIME?

NO, I...

WELL, H-H-HOW WOULD YOU DEFINE
"FIRST TIME"?

I THOUGHT SO.

OKAY, WE NEED SOME MUSIC.

OH, MY GOD, ELI.
YOU HAVE A GEORGE MICHAEL ALBUM?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH
A GEORGE MICHAEL ALBUM?

IT'S MY ROOMMATE'S.
HE'S IN THEATER.

WHOA, I-I-I-I CAN'T LOSE IT
TO GEORGE MICHAEL.

WELL, WE CAN JUST
MAKE OUT THEN.
OR IT COULD, YOU KNOW,

MAKE THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE...
MORE MEMORABLE.

BABY

YOU'RE CUTE, ELI,

IN A GEEKY,
LATE BLOOMER-ISH SORT OF WAY.

I'VE BLOOMED.

MM...

NOT YET, YOU HAVEN'T,
BUT YOU WILL.

BY THE TIME YOU'RE THAT LAWYER
CHANGING THE WORLD,

YOU ARE GONNA BE HOT.

AND ANOTHER WHO TIED ME DOWN
TO THE LOVERBOY RULES

U.C.L.A., 1991.
YOU WERE LIZZIE THEN, NOT BETH.

YOUR HAIR WAS STRAIGHT, AND WE
HAD SEX TO GEORGE MICHAEL.

IT WAS 15 YEARS AGO,
BUT IT WAS YOU.
MY HAIR WAS NEVER STRAIGHT.
I USED A FLAT IRON.

WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SOMETHING?
'CAUSE IT WAS ONE NIGHT,

AND IT'S NOT LIKE
YOU REMEMBERED ME.

COME ON, ELI, WE WERE
BOTH STONED ON POT BROWNIES

AND WE HAD
A RANDOM COLLEGE HOOKUP.
SO YOU JUST USED ME FOR SEX
AND TOSSED ME ASIDE LIKE--

LIKE MOST GUYS WANT?
I'M NOT MOST GUYS.

NO, YOU'RE JUST
MOST LAWYERS.
THAT'S NOT FAIR.

HEY, BEN?

BEN, THIS IS ELI.
ELI'S A FRIEND OF MOMMY'S.

HE'S NOT, UH...

I--I'M NOT...

YEAH...

I WAS PREGNANT FOR 8 YEARS.

SWEETIE?

CAN YOU PLEASE SAY HELLO?

HUH?

SO YOU LIKE BLOCKS, HUH?

WORDS. THERE'S OVER 500,000
IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE.

WOW, THAT'S A LOT.

THEY SHOULD COLLECT THEM ALL
IN A BOOK OR SOMETHING.

THAT'S NOT COUNTING NAMES.
I'M COUNTING THEM WITH NAMES.

OH.

WHAT IS IT, ELI?

UH, COME BY MY OFFICE
00.

WH--YOU'RE GONNA
TAKE THE CASE?

NO, I'M GONNA
BE GETTING FIRED

'CAUSE I'M GONNA REQUEST
TO TAKE THE CASE.
OH, LOOK,
I REALLY WANT YOU TO DO THIS,

BUT NOT IF IT'S
OUT OF PITY OR SYMPATHY.
IT'S--IT'S NOT SYMPATHY.

UH, THERE'S OVER 500,000 WORDS
IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, AND...

THAT'S NOT COUNTING NAMES.

BEAR WITH ME, MR. STONE.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

IS THERE SOME KIND OF PROBLEM
WITH THE CASE?

NO, THE CASE IS GOING GREAT.

THE SOLE EXCEPTION BEING
THAT YOU WISH TO SWITCH SIDES.

W-WE REPRESENT CLIENTS
WITH CONFLICTING INTERESTS

ALL THE TIME.

IS THAT THE JAPANESE WALL
YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT?
IT'S CHINESE.

WHICHEVER. IN THOSE SITUATIONS,
THE CLIENTS CAN PAY.

MR. STONE, ARE YOU OKAY?

I'M FINE.

TOTALLY FINE.

MR. DOWD,
YOU'RE ATYPICALLY QUIET.
YEAH.

SORRY, I WAS JUST REDECORATING
STONE'S OFFICE IN MY HEAD.

ORDINARILY,
WE OFFER QUIXOTIC PLAINTIFFS

NUISANCE VALUE TO GO AWAY.

WE DID. STONE UPPED
THE OFFER TO $90,000.

$100,000, ACTUALLY.
SHE CAME BY MY OFFICE.

LET ME SEE
IF I'M UNDERSTANDING THIS.

YOU HAD AN EX PARTE CONVERSATION
WITH THE PLAINTIFF?

UH, WELL,
IT WOULDN'T BE EX PARTE

IF YOU LET ME REPRESENT HER...
SIR.

EXPLAIN TO ME, MR. STONE,

THE RATIONALE FOR UPSETTING
A CLIENT OF BEUTEL'S MAGNITUDE

ON A CASE WHICH IS
A COMPLETE AND UTTER LOSER?

WELL, BECAUSE, SIR...

IT'LL MAKE US RICH.

MORE RICH.

WE ALL KNOW THAT PRO BONO WORK
IS GOOD FOR BUSINESS,

AND THIS CASE,

AS YOU SO CORRECTLY POINTED OUT,
MR. WETHERSBY,

IS A COMPLETE
AND UTTER LOSER.

THEREFORE, THE FIRM
CAN REAP THE FINANCIAL

AND THE PUBLIC RELATIONS
WINDFALLS

WITHOUT PUTTING
OUR BOTTOM LINE AT RISK.

WHAT IS THIS I HEAR

ABOUT THE SEVEN HORSEMEN
OF THE APOCALYPSE

ACTUALLY LETTING YOU
REPRESENT THAT WOMAN?
HER NAME'S BETH.

NOW ASK DAN TO GET ME
POINTS AND AUTHORITIES

ON CHINESE WALLS, AND...

THERE IT IS AGAIN.
YOU HEAR THAT?

WHO WAS IT THIS TIME, HMM?

CYNDI LAUPER? BILLY JOEL?
THE GO-GO's?
IT'S NOT MUSIC. IT'S, UH...

LIKE A BELL, A DINGING.
DID YOU POSSIBLY FALL DOWN
A FLIGHT OF STAIRS,

OR DID YOU
START TAKING ECSTASY?

MAYBE YOU FELL DOWN A FLIGHT
OF STAIRS BECAUSE YOU ARE

HIGH ON ECSTASY.
WH...

HOLD ON!

ALL ABOARD!
HOLD ON!

LET HIM ON.

COME ON, ELI!
HURRY UP!

COME ON, ELI!

THERE WAS A VOICE THIS TIME.

I'M PRETTY SURE
IT WAS MY DEAD FATHER.

HMM. DEAD PARENT.
DIFFERENT NEEDLE.

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.

MY FATHER WAS
AN AIMLESS DRUNK

WHO RUINED EVERYTHING
HE EVER TOUCHED.

HE'S, LIKE,
THE LAST PERSON

I NEED TO BE HEARING FROM
RIGHT NOW.

NO GOOD HATE DEAD PEOPLE.
RELAH. THINK GOOD MEMORY FATHER.

DR. CHEN HELP
UNGRATEFUL SON.

COME ON, ELI!

HURRY UP!

HEY, YOUR MOM TOLD ME
ABOUT YOUR DEBATE TROPHY.

SORRY I COULDN'T BE THERE.

BECAUSE YOU WERE DRUNK
AGAIN.

HERE.

A CELEBRATION PRESENT
FOR WINNING THE TOURNAMENT.

IT'S THE PANCH CHULI PEAKS.
THEY'RE IN INDIA.

I ALWAYS WANTED TO SEE THEM.

WE'LL GO SOME DAY.

"FOR ELI,

SO YOU'LL REMEMBER."

REMEMBER WHAT?

THAT YOU'RE MEANT TO DO
GREAT THINGS,

THAT YOU'RE GONNA
GO TO BEAUTIFUL PLACES,

SPEAK INSPIRED WORDS,

THAT YOU'RE GONNA
HELP PEOPLE.

DAD, YOU OKAY?

YEAH.

YEAH. SURE, KIDDO.

HEY, UH, THERE'S ONE MORE STOP
I GOTTA MAKE, ACTUALLY.

TELL YOUR MOTHER I'LL BE HOME
IN A LITTLE BIT.

BEN WAS A DREAM INFANT.

HE BARELY EVER CRIED
OR GOT FUSSY.

PICKED HIMSELF UP AT 10 MONTHS
AND WALKED AT 12.

BUT AT 23 MONTHS,
EVERYTHING CHANGED--

RIGHT AFTER I TOOK HIM IN
FOR HIS 2-YEAR CHECKUP

AND HIS PEDIATRICIAN GAVE HIM

A BEUTEL PHARMACEUTICAL
FLU SHOT.

WITHIN A WEEK, HE WAS
A TOTALLY DIFFERENT CHILD.

HE WENT FROM SMILING
ALL THE TIME TO NOT AT ALL.

HE USED TO RUN AROUND THE HOUSE
LIKE A LIVE WIRE,

AND NOW HIS IDEA OF PLAYTIME
IS STACKING OBJECTS IN ROWS.

AND WHEN HE CALLS FOR ME,
WHICH HE HARDLY EVER DOES...

HE CALLS ME BETH.

UH, YOUR HONOR...
"HE CALLS ME BETH"?

MR. STONE, PLEASE APPROACH.

ARE YOU MR. STONE?

I FIGURED I COULD HEAR THIS.

AN OVERESTIMATION ON MY PART.

NOW I'M... WALKING AWAY.

YOUR HONOR,

WE BOTH KNOW THE ONLY CHANCE
I HAVE IS FOR THE JURORS

TO IDENTIFY WITH MY CLIENT
ON AN EMOTIONAL LEVEL.
NOT MY PROBLEM.

MY DECISION TO LET YOU REPRESENT
THE KELLERS IN THE FIRST PLACE

SHOULD'VE COME WRAPPED
IN A BOX WITH A RIBBON ON IT.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
YOU'RE DRAWING AN ANALOGY

BETWEEN YOUR DECISION
AND A GIFT, YOUR HONOR.

AND NOW I'M WALKING AWAY.

BUT, MS. KELLER,

ISN'T A LEAP TO BLAME A VACCINE
FOR BEN'S AUTISM?

THAT VACCINE CHANGED MY SON.

ONE WEEK,
HE WAS HAPPY AND HEALTHY,

AND THE NEXT WEEK,
HE WAS AUTISTIC.

WHAT KIND OF C.E.O. WOULD I BE--
WHAT KIND OF HUMAN WOULD I BE--

IF I ALLOWED MY COMPANY

TO USE A PRESERVATIVE IN ITS
VACCINE THAT CAUSED AUTISM?

WELL, WHY NOT JUST
GET RID OF THE PRESERVATIVE

JUST TO BE SURE?

BECAUSE THEN I COULDN'T
MARKET THE VACCINE

AT AN AFFORDABLE COST.
LOOK, I'M A PARENT MYSELF.

AND BELIEVE ME,
NO LEVEL OF RISK IS ACCEPTABLE.

BUT THERE IS NO RISK
BECAUSE THERE'S NO CONNECTION

BETWEEN MERCURITOL
AND AUTISM.

BETH KELLER SAID

HER SON BECAME AUTISTIC
ONE WEEK AFTER EXPOSURE TO IT.

THE TRUTH IS, NO ONE KNOWS
WHAT CAUSES AUTISM.

AND IN THE ABSENCE
OF AN EXPLANATION,

MS. KELLER HAS BLAMED
MY COMPANY AND A PRODUCT

THAT HAS SAVED THE LIVES OF TENS
OF THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN.

WE'RE GONNA LOSE, AREN'T WE?

I'M SORRY IF BY REPEATEDLY
TELLING YOU HOW

WE HAVE NO CHANCE OF WINNING
I GOT YOUR HOPES UP.

MAYBE SEAN WAS RIGHT.

MY EX--HE SAID
ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD

WASN'T GONNA MAKE BEN BETTER,

THAT I WAS OBSESSED
WITH OUR SON'S ILLNESS

AND I SHOULD GIVE UP.
IS THAT WHY YOU GUYS SPLIT?

OURS WASN'T A LOAD-BEARING
MARRIAGE TO BEGIN WITH.

BUT AFTER BEN WAS DIAGNOSED,
THERE WAS JUST NO WAY.

I HOPE
I'M INTERRUPTING SOMETHING.

WE'D BETTER GET GOING.
COME ON, BEN.

WHAT A NICE WOMAN.

CUTE, TOO. IS SHE AVAILABLE?

I'M IGNORING YOU.

WHAT'S THAT?
A "PLEASE BREAK OFF
YOUR ENGAGEMENT,

I'M BEGGING YOU" PRESENT.
IT'S AN INTERNAL
BEUTEL DOCUMENT.

GEE, THANKS, PATTI.
YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE.

"...SUGGESTS
A POSSIBLE CORRELATION

"BETWEEN MERCURITOL
AND COGNITIVE DYSFUNCTION,

INCLUDING AUTISM."

THIS IS A STUDY.

PROVING EVEN THEY THOUGHT
MERCURITOL MIGHT BE DANGEROUS.

PATTI, WHERE'D YOU GET THIS?

A PARALEGAL
WHO WORKS WITH MATT DOWD.

I LENT HER MY TAMPONS
WHEN SHE RAN OUT.

FIRST, EW.

AND SECOND, DO YOU HAVE
ANY IDEA WHAT YOU'VE DONE?

THIS--THIS DOCUMENT'S
ATTORNEY-CLIENT PRIVILEGE.

I CAN'T USE IT.
I CAN'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT IT.

I COULD GET FIRED
AND DISBARRED AND KILLED,

AND NOT EVEN IN THAT ORDER.
DON'T WHISPER-YELL AT ME.

WELL, DON'T TRY
TO GET ME FIRED.

WELL, YOU'RE THE GENIUS
WITH THE STANFORD DIPLOMA.

FIGURE SOMETHING OUT. GOD!

)
WAS IT YOU OR WAS IT ME

WHO SAID THAT WE WERE ONE

SO HIS FATHER AND I
WENT OUTSIDE TO FIND ELI...

NAKED, COVERED IN FEATHERS
AND CHOCOLATE SYRUP.

THANKS, MOM.
AND THANK YOU, TOO.

OH, COME ON. I WAS 10.

JUST BE GLAD
I COULDN'T FIND TAR.

THAT WOULD BE MY PARENTS.

AH! MM-HMM.

I BELIEVE IN
THE TRUTH UNSPOKEN

ELI.

HI.
MMM.

ELI.

MR. WETHERSBY--
UM... JORDAN.

SWEETHEART. MWAH.

MWAH.
YOUR PLACE IS JUST DARLING.

HELLO, PRINCESS.
HEY, DADDY.

HELLO. MMM.
MWAH.

AND I HOPE WE NEVER DIE

WELL, I HOPE THIS MOMENT

NEVER ENDS

AND I HOPE WE NEVER DIE

YOU'RE A BRAVE MAN, ELI.

FOR GETTING ENGAGED
TO THE BOSS' DAUGHTER?

THAT'S NOT BRAVERY.
THAT'S STUPIDITY.

I MEANT TAKING ON
THE BEUTEL MATTER.

I WOULD HAVE TO AGREE,

PARTICULARLY SINCE
BEUTEL'S LAWYERS

HAVE BEEN DEALING FROM
THE BOTTOM OF THE DECK.

IF YOU'RE REFERRING TO
THE BEUTEL STUDY,

WHICH I SUSPECT YOU ARE,
BE CAREFUL.

IT'S AN ETHICAL VIOLATION

FOR YOU TO BE
IN POSSESSION OF IT.
WELL, IT WAS A VIOLATION

FOR YOU NOT TO PRODUCE IT
IN THE FIRST PLACE,

SO I GUESS
THAT MAKES US EVEN.

IN POINT OF FACT,
I DIDN'T HAVE TO PRODUCE IT.

AT LEAST, NOT AFTER ONE OF
MY ASSOCIATES STEPPED FORWARD

TO TAKE THE PLAINTIFF'S CASE,

EFFECTIVELY ALLOWING ME
TO SEAL IT BEHIND--

WHAT'S IT CALLED AGAIN?
A CHINESE WALL?

IN ANY CASE, THAT'S WHY
I'LL BE IN COURT TOMORROW.

CONGRATULATIONS
ON THE ENGAGEMENT.

IT'LL BE A PLEASURE
TO HAVE YOU IN THE FAMILY.

ELI, STOP!

DON'T! DON'T JUMP!

PLEASE, ELI!

DON'T JUMP!

LOOK AT ME!
LOOK AT ME! LISTEN!

JUST COME DOWN, PLEASE!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
PLEASE!

LOOK AT ME! LISTEN TO ME!
GET OFF. STEP DOWN.
STEP DOWN
OFF THE RAILING, ELI!

PLEASE, ELI! COME DOWN!
DON'T!

WHAT YOU DID LAST NIGHT,
I REALIZED THAT I HAD, UH,

I HAD SEEN THAT KIND
OF BEHAVIOR BEFORE.

WE BOTH HAVE...

WITH DAD--HALLUCINATIONS,
SEEING PEOPLE,

HEARING THINGS
THAT AREN'T THERE.

JUST STOP ME WHEN THIS
DOESN'T SOUND FAMILIAR.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

WHAT DOES THIS ALL
HAVE TO DO WITH YOUR FATHER?

WELL, I'D ALWAYS ASSOCIATED
HIS EPISODES WITH ALCOHOL,

BUT IT SEEMS PRETTY CLEAR

THAT HE WAS SUFFERING
FROM SOMETHING ELSE.

THERE WAS JUST NO WAY
OF KNOWING IT BACK THEN.

I TOOK YOUR M.R.I.
TO OUR NEUROLOGY CHIEF,

AND, UM...

HE FOUND SOMETHING.

HE FOUND WHAT?

A BRAIN ANEURYSM.

IT'S ABOUT, UH,
3 MILLIMETERS IN SIZE.

WE WOULDN'T HAVE FOUND IT
UNLESS WE KNEW WHAT TO LOOK FOR.

NOW INTRACRANIAL ANEURYSMS
CAN BE HEREDITARY.

IT IS NOT UNCOMMON FOR THEM
TO AFFLICT THE SAME OF THE BRAIN

IN A PARENT AND A CHILD.

AND IN THIS CASE, IT IS IN
THE RIGHT CEREBRAL ARTERY.

ANY DISRUPTION OF BLOOD FLOW
IN THIS AREA

WOULD ACCOUNT FOR, UH,

DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR
OR HALLUCINATIONS.

UH...

WH-WHEN DO YOU TAKE IT OUT?

BECAUSE IT IS LOCATED
SO DEEP IN THE CORTEX,

ACCORDING TO THE...

CHIEF NEUROSURGEON,

IT IS NOT AMENABLE
TO SURGICAL INTERVENTION.

WHAT IF IT BURSTS?

IT MIGHT NOT.

NO, A LOT OF PEOPLE

LIVE THEIR WHOLE LIVES
WITH ANEURYSMS,

AND THEN THEY DIE
OF PERFECTLY BOR--

PERFECTLY BORING THINGS.

I'M SO SORRY, ELI.

I'LL LET YOU TWO TALK.

WELL, WE SHOULD PROBABLY
MOVE THE WEDDING UP.

THAT'S NOT FUNNY.

I DON'T KNOW
IF I CAN DO THIS, ELI.

YOU KNOW, VISIONS,
THE ODD BEHAVIOR--

I COULD TAKE ALL THAT.

THE IDEA OF LOSING YOU
AT ANY MOMENT...

ARE--ARE YOU
BREAKING UP WITH ME?

'CAUSE I-I WAS JUST DIAGNOSED
WITH A BRAIN ANEURYSM,

AND THAT WOULD BE
REALLY BAD TIMING ON YOUR PART.

I AM JUST TRYING
TO PROCESS ALL OF THIS.

OKAY.

ELI, WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

I'M LATE FOR COURT.

THE PLAINTIFF RECALLS
ALAN COOKE.

WHAT'S YOUR CHILD'S NAME,
SIR?

OBJECTION.
EARLIER, MR. COOKE
MENTIONED HAVING A CHILD.

HE OPENED THE DOOR.
OVERRULED.

YOUR CHILD'S NAME, SIR?
JENNA.

DID JENNA EVER RECEIVE
A FLU VACCINE?
SEVERAL, I'M SURE.

WERE ANY OF THEM MANUFACTURED
BY BEUTEL PHARMACEUTICALS?

OBJECTION!
OBJECTION!

HELL, NO.
NOW WE'RE GETTIN' SOMEWHERE.

WELL, MR. COOKE?

I BELIEVE
THE CHOICE OF VACCINE

WAS JENNA'S PEDIATRICIAN'S
DECISION.

MR. COOKE, DO YOU RECOGNIZE
THE MAN IN THE GLASSES

WHO JUST ENTERED THE ROOM?

THAT'S DR. VARGA,
JENNA'S PEDIATRICIAN.

OR AS I PREFER TO CALL HIM,
MY NEXT WITNESS.

NOW I'M GOING TO ASK YOU
ONE MORE TIME, MR. COOKE.

TO THE BEST OF YOUR KNOWLEDGE,

DID JENNA EVER RECEIVE
A BEUTEL VACCINE?

NO, SHE DID NOT.

WAS THAT AT YOUR REQUEST,
SIR?

YES. IT WAS.

WE'RE PREPARED TO OFFER
$360,000.

SEALED.

NO ADMISSION OF LIABILITY.
CHECK BY THE END OF BUSINESS.

I'M SORRY. NO.

NO WHAT?
NO, I DON'T ACCEPT.

I WANT MERCURITOL
TAKEN OUT OF BEUTEL'S VACCINES,

AND I WANT THEM
TO SET UP A FUND

FOR ANY OTHER KIDS
IT MADE AUTISTIC.

COULD YOU GUYS GIVE US
A FEW MINUTES?

BETH, WHAT I DID IN THERE
WAS A STUNT.

MATT'S GONNA GO BACK IN,

HE'S GONNA CLEAN UP
THE MESS THAT I MADE.

NOW WE'RE
DOWN TO SUMMATIONS HERE,

AND I'D HAVE TO GIVE
THE ONE OF MY LIFE

AND GET STRUCK BY LIGHTNING
FOR US TO HAVE A CHANCE.

BUT I'M NOT GONNA
TAKE THEIR BRIBE.

IF YOU DON'T TAKE THE OFFER,
YOU'RE GOING TO NOTHING.

NOTHING.
WOW, YEAH.
OKAY, YOU--YOU'RE RIGHT.

WE'RE GONNA LOSE,

BUT NOT BECAUSE OF MATT DOWD
OR BEUTEL OR BURDENS OF PROOF.

WE ARE GONNA LOSE

BECAUSE WHEN YOU STAND UP
TO GIVE THE CLOSING ARGUMENT,

THE JURY'S GONNA
LOOK IN YOUR EYES,

AND THEY'RE GONNA SEE
THAT YOU DON'T BELIEVE.

FOR THE FIRST TIME,

I FEEL SORRIER FOR YOU
THAN I DO FOR ME.

COME ON, BEN.

YOU ALWAYS SHOW UP
NO APPOINTMENT.

DR. CHEN NOT JIFFY LUBE.
COME BACK FRIDAY.

I WENT TO THE DOCTOR--
THE REAL KIND.

YOU WOULDN'T, UH,
HAPPEN TO HAVE ANY NEEDLES

FOR AN INOPERABLE
BRAIN ANEURYSM

I INHERITED
FROM MY ALCOHOLIC FATHER

WHO I'VE WRONGLY HATED
FOR 20 YEARS?

OH, WOW.
THAT TOTALLY BLOWS, BRO.

WHAT HAPPENED
TO YOUR ACCENT?

LONG STORY. WANT A BEER?

I GREW UP ON A COMMUNE.

FROM THERE, U.C. BERKELEY--
PHILOSOPHY MAJOR.

THERE'S NO FUTURE
IN EXISTENTIALIST ETHICS,

SO I GOT INTO ACUPUNCTURE.

UNFORTUNATELY,
NOBODY WANTS

AN ACUPUNCTURIST NAMED
FRANK LEBAKOWSKI.

THEY WANT INCENSE, MYSTIQUE,
A FOREIGN ACCENT.

YEAH,
THEY WANT THE DR. CHEN.

THAT'S GREAT--EVEN
MY TREATMENTS WERE IMAGINARY.

HEY, EIGHT YEARS OF COURSEWORK
IN HOLISTIC MEDICINE,

TWO YEARS IN BEIJING.

GIVE ME SOME PROPS.

NOW TELL ME ABOUT
THIS LATEST VISION.
AH, IT'S JUST POINTLESS.

IT'S ALL JUST MY DEFECTIVE BRAIN
PLAYING TRICKS ON ME.

EVERYTHING HAS
TWO EXPLANATIONS, ELI--

THE SCIENTIFIC
AND THE DIVINE.

IT'S UP TO US TO CHOOSE
WHICH ONE WE BUY INTO.

NOW SCIENCE EXPLAINS

THE ENLARGED VESSEL
IN YOUR HEAD.

BUT DOES IT EXPLAIN HOW THE GIRL
YOU LOST YOUR VIRGINITY TO

HAPPENED TO BE SUING
YOUR LAW FIRM?

HOW HER SON HAPPENED
TO SPELL OUT A MESSAGE TO YOU

WITH HIS BLOCKS?
OKAY, SO WHAT WOULD YOUR DIVINE
EXPLANATION FOR ALL OF THIS BE?

ALMOST ALL RELIGIONS
BELIEVE THAT

THERE ARE THOSE WHO ARE SENT
TO US TO HELP US FIND OUR WAY.

SOME PEOPLE
CALL THEM PROPHETS.

A PROPHET.
YOU THINK I'M A PROPHET?

LIKE MOSES?

GOD TOLD MOSES HE'D SEND
A PROPHET TO EVERY GENERATION.

WHY NOT A LAWYER--
A HIGH PROFILE ATTORNEY

HANDLING CASES
THAT GOT A LOT OF NOTORIETY,

THAT THE WORLD
WOULD READ ABOUT?

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
THOSE GUYS AND ME

IS I DON'T BELIEVE IN GOD.

SURE YOU DO.

YOU BELIEVE
IN RIGHT AND WRONG.

YOU BELIEVE IN JUSTICE,
IN FAIRNESS.

AND YOU BELIEVE IN LOVE.

ALL THOSE THINGS--
THEY'RE GOD, ELI.

AND THAT...

THAT'S GOD, TOO.

'CAUSE I GOTTA HAVE FAITH
I GOTTA HAVE FAITH

THE FIRST LAWSUIT

ALLEGING A CONNECTION
BETWEEN TOBACCO AND CANCER

WAS FILED IN 1954.

BUT IT TOOK 30 YEARS FOR A JURY
TO AWARD A SINGLE DOLLAR

FOR SOMETHING WE NOW
ALL ACCEPT AS PATENTLY TRUE.

IS THERE PROOF MERCURITOL
CAUSES AUTISM? YES.

IS THAT PROOF DIRECT
OR INCONTROVERTIBLE PROOF? NO.

BUT ASK YOURSELF

IF YOU'VE EVER BELIEVED
IN ANYTHING, IN ANYONE,

WITHOUT ABSOLUTE PROOF.

THAT'S CALLED FAITH,
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.

AND MAKE NO MISTAKE,

THIS IS VERY MUCH
A CASE ABOUT FAITH.

IT'S ABOUT BETH KELLER'S FAITH.

SHE PLACED HER FAITH IN BEUTEL
WHEN SHE EXPOSED HER CHILD

TO A VACCINE MR. COOKE
WOULDN'T GIVE HIS OWN DAUGHTER.

SHE PLACED HER FAITH
IN THE JUSTICE SYSTEM

TO HOLD BEUTEL ACCOUNTABLE,

AND NOW SHE'S HERE,

PUTTING THAT SAME
UNSHAKABLE FAITH

IN THE 12 OF YOU.

I DON'T HAVE
BETH KELLER'S FAITH,

BUT I DO BELIEVE IN SOME THINGS.

I BELIEVE IN PEOPLE.

THAT'S WHY I BECAME A LAWYER.

I BELIEVE THAT MOST PEOPLE
WANNA DO WHAT'S RIGHT.

AND THE RIGHT THING TO DO HERE

IS TO REMOVE MERCURITOL
FROM BEUTEL'S VACCINES.

UNFORTUNATELY, YOUR VERDICT...

CAN'T ORDER THEM TO DO THAT.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

IS AWARD BETH KELLER
A JUDGMENT SO HIGH

THAT BEUTEL FEELS
IT HAS NO OTHER CHOICE.

SADLY,

WITHOUT THAT VERDICT, I...

DON'T HAVE FAITH THAT BEUTEL
WILL DO WHAT'S RIGHT.

BUT I HAVE FAITH THAT YOU WILL.

HOW MUCH LONGER?

UH, JURIES DON'T AWARD MILLIONS
OF DOLLARS IN FIVE MINUTES.

SO FOR US,
IT'S THE LONGER THE BETTER.

ELI.

SOMEONE CAME BY THE OFFICE.

MOM.

YOUR BROTHER TOLD ME EVERYTHING.
OH, I'M SO SORRY.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

I'M FINE.
YEAH?

YEAH. APART FROM
THE, YOU KNOW, ANEURYSM.
OH.

OH.

I HAD NO IDEA.

IT'S HORRIBLE TO THINK
HOW MUCH OF MY LIFE

I'VE SPENT
BLAMING YOUR FATHER

FOR SOMETHING
THAT WASN'T HIS FAULT.
YEAH, ME, TOO.

IT SURE HELPS
TO EXPLAIN A LOT.

THAT'S THE COFFEE CAN!
WHERE DID YOU GET THAT?

IT'S YOUR FATHER.
IT'S HIS ASHES.

YOU KEPT DAD
IN A COFFEE CAN?

NO, OF COURSE NOT.

I TRANSPORTED HIM
IN THE COFFEE CAN.

I DIDN'T WANT

TO TRAIPSE A 10-POUND CHINA URN
ACROSS TOWN.

HONEY,

HE WANTED YOU TO HAVE THIS...

HIM.

IN HIS WILL,

HE EXPRESSED
A DESIRE TO BE CREMATED.

HE WANTED YOU
TO HAVE THE ASHES.

HE SAID THAT ONE DAY, YOU WOULD
KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THEM.

OF COURSE, I THOUGHT THAT WAS
THE REQUEST OF A CRAZY PERSON,

AND I DIDN'T WANT
TO BURDEN YOU.

BUT NOW...

I'M HOPING YOU'LL KNOW
WHAT TO DO WITH THEM.

I THINK I DO.

JURY'S BACK.

THAT QUICK?

MOM, I GOTTA GO.

IT'S OKAY.
IT'S OKAY. IT'S OKAY.

I LOVE YOU. OKAY.

PATTI, TAKE MY DAD
BACK TO THE OFFICE.

I AM NOT GONNA EVEN PRETEND
TO UNDERSTAND THAT.

GOOD LUCK.

YOU'VE NEVER
WISHED ME LUCK BEFORE.

I NEVER CARED
WHETHER YOU WON BEFORE.

I--NEITHER DID I.

HAS THE JURY
REACHED A VERDICT?

WE HAVE, YOUR HONOR.

IN THE MATTER OF
BETH KELLER

vs. BEUTEL PHARMACEUTICAL
INCORPORATED,

AS TO THE CLAIM
OF PRODUCT LIABILITY,

WE FIND IN FAVOR OF
THE PLAINTIFF...

AND ORDER THE DEFENDANT
TO PAY DAMAGES

IN THE AMOUNT OF $5.2 MILLION.

YOU HEARD THAT, TOO, RIGHT?

'CAUSE I'VE BEEN
HEARING SOME THINGS LATELY.

NO, I HEARD IT.

OKAY, WE ALL KNOW
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT.

WE APPEAL, APPEAL THE APPEAL,
APPEAL THE APPEAL OF THE APPEAL.

BASICALLY,
RUN THIS THING OUT

TILL LITTLE BEN'S ELIGIBLE
FOR SOCIAL SECURITY.
THAT'S A NICE TRY,

BUT BEUTEL
CAN'T RISK AN APPEAL

BECAUSE THEY CAN'T RISK
THE PUBLICITY.
SPEAK QUICKLY, MR. STONE.

$2 MILLION TO THE KELLERS,
THE BALANCE OF THE JUDGMENT

GETS INVESTED IN A FUND
FOR AUTISTIC CHILDREN,

AND MERCURITOL IS REMOVED
FROM BEUTEL'S VACCINES,

EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY

WRITE IT UP.

WAIT, ONE MORE THING.

ELI KEEPS HIS JOB.

HE JUST WON A MULTIMILLION
DOLLAR JURY VERDICT.

WE'D BE HARD-PRESSED
TO EXPLAIN LETTING HIM GO.

YOU'LL UNDERSTAND IF I WANT
YOUR GUARANTEE IN WRITING.

SHREWD.
I'LL HAVE MR. DOWD DRAFT IT UP.

HONESTLY, I-I DON'T KNOW
HOW TO THANK YOU.

WELL, I THINK YOU JUST DID

WITH THE "ELI KEEPS
HIS JOB" BIT.

THAT WAS NOTHING.
YOU CHANGED OUR LIVES.

WELL, I THINK I'M GONNA

BE MAKING A FEW CHANGES
TO MINE, TOO.

DON'T BE A STRANGER, OKAY?
AND THANK YOU.

THE MAN OF THE HOUR.
IT'S ALL OVER THE COURTHOUSE.

WHAT,
THAT I'M BACK ON THE MARKET?

IT WASN'T EXACTLY
MY FINEST MOMENT

AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE.

BUT I AM SORRY, ELI,

AND I LOVE YOU.

I LOVE YOU, TOO,

AND I WANNA BE WITH YOU.

BUT...

BUT?

I HAVE TO GO TO INDIA.

RIGHT THIS MINUTE, OR...

ARE YOU FREE FOR LUNCH?

SO THAT'S MY STORY.

IT'S GOT SHERPAS
AND GEORGE MICHAEL.

IT'S GOT CABLE CARS
AND PROPHECIES

AND MYSTICAL CHINESE DOCTORS...

WHO AREN'T REALLY THAT MYSTICAL
AND AREN'T REALLY THAT CHINESE.

I HAVE A FEELING
THAT'S JUST THE BEGINNING.

MOM SAID

YOU SPENT YOUR WHOLE LIFE
WITH THESE VISIONS.

I HAD NO IDEA.

THAT FILLS YOU UP

I'M SORRY, DAD.

I'M SORRY FOR BLAMING YOU

FOR THINGS
THAT WEREN'T YOUR FAULT.

MOST OF ALL,
I'M SORRY THAT

I'M NOT THE PERSON
THAT YOU SAID I'D BE.

WE STUMBLE INTO OUR LIVES

I'M GONNA CHANGE THAT.

REACH FOR A HAND

I PROMISE.

WE NEED TO FIND
A CERTAIN

OKAY, GUYS.

LET'S GO.

SOMETHING CERTAIN

TURN OUT THE LIGHT,
AND WHAT ARE YOU LEFT WITH?

OPEN UP MY HANDS
AND FIND OUT THEY'RE EMPTY

OPEN UP MY HANDS
AND FIND OUT THEY'RE EMPTY
MMM

PRESS MY FACE TO THE GROUND,
I'VE GOT TO FIND A REASON

JUST SCRATCHING AROUND
FOR SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN

JUST SCRATCHING AROUND
FOR SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN
SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN

YOU HAVE TOO MUCH

AND SPENDING ALL YOUR TIME

COLLECTING
AND DISCOVERING

IT'S NOT ENOUGH

IT'S NOT ENOUGH
AND NO MATTER HOW...
