MAIA [over TV]: A journalist
was shot and killed.

DAVIES:
The state will refile

and try these two
defendants together.

My client can't get a fair trial
if we're with Mr. Blum.

DAVIES: Well, then I suggest
you visit the court officer

so he can stamp
your "tough shit" ticket.

The two of you
are joined at the hip.

I know. It gets me every time.

No human should starve.
No baby should suffer.

If this won't touch
the heartstrings

of Trump supporters,
I don't know what will.[crowd murmurs]

Let's hold off on questions.
Sorry.

Harry, yes?Yeah, this is
such great work, Guy.

Do you think we can get this
on Chris Hayes's show?

We're posting
on YouTube later today,

and our plan is to even
take an ad out on Fox.

[applause, cheering]

I didn't see anything in there
about single-payer health care.

Well, we couldn't touch
on everything. If we did,

it'd be an
eight-hour video.Do you feel...

But single-payer isn't just
another issue; it's theissue.

No, the issue is
global warming.

The debate is over...

[crowd arguing and murmuring]

Follow me.

What?
Just follow me.

Where?
Close.

[bell tolling]

Do you want
a mission?

Do I want...?

A mission.

I don't know
what that means.

You have two options.

You could go back in there and
they'll make you the co-chair

of the subcommittee
on bake sales,

and every week you'll argue over
some new outrage of Trump's,

or you could do something.

I'm looking for
people who are sick

of just bitching
and moaning,

people who are sick of
screaming at the news.

I'm looking for people
who are ready

to take the fight to Trump.

[groans]

Is this where I'm going?It is, yes.

The United Negro College Fund

Excuse me?

That painting is

So where are we
doing this?This way.

So, listen, Mary Elizabeth...

Maia Rindell.

Unless this judge

you and I are stuck
with one another.

We're co-counsels,
so don't fuck me.

Oh, God.

Why are we stopping?

Well, this is me.

Here?

Uh, yes.

And-and this chair?

Well, I mean,

Did I volunteer
to man the phones

at a teen suicide hotline?

Where is your office?

We're pressed for space.

Oh, my fucking God.

How can anyone
take you seriously?

How can you take
yourself seriously?

You work out of your bedroom

next to a rotten pile
of smoked salmon.

Who's that? Why does
she have an office?

She's a third year, too.

Excuse me, miss?

Little Maia here can't get

through the day
without masturbating.

Roland!
She's a little
self-conscious

about doing it
out here.

I was wondering, would you
be willing to trade places?

[whispering]: Would
you shut up, please?

Just shut the fuck up.
I need you to back--

Please back off.
Sit in one of my seats.

Oh, good, Lucca. Come in.

Sorry, Mrs. Reddick,
I didn't know we had a meeting.

Oh, no, we didn't,
we didn't, we don't.

I just wanted to, um--
Uh, come-- Have a seat.

Yeah, sure.

Can I get you
anything?

A-A bagel?
Oh, no.

Actually, I've got some,
uh... Cheerios.

So how are things
in matrimonial?

Good.

Yeah, five new clients.
And thank you for

pushing me
for the job.

Oh, no problem. I wanted
a familiar face in there.

You know, someone
that, uh...

Uh, anyway, I have a
divorce referral for you.

Great. Who?

Me.

You?

Yes.

I'm sorry.

Oh, don't be. [chuckles]
It's a long time coming.

We've had our
tensions and, uh,

barely even, uh...

Anyway, I don't want to bore
you, so let's just, uh...

Oh, Mrs. Reddick, I-I'm sorry.

My diaper bag looks like my...Oh, yeah.

...work bag.
Here.

Okay, so, um, just
a few basic questions.

Yes. I, uh, I make more than my
husband. Uh, we have a prenup.

You remember my son Malcolm?
I want sole custody,

and I expect this
to be amicable.

Is that what he expects?

He...?

Is that what your husband
expects, for it to be amicable?

Oh, I don't...

I don't know.
I haven't told him yet.

I think you should.

Yes.

Yeah, I should.

I will.

Great.

Ugh.

What is that stuff?

Ugh, it's poison. Try it.

Ooh, no thanks.

ROLAND:
Who's this asshole?

State of Illinois
v. Ward and Colman.

Ah, put it on the table.
Here you go, kid.

I'm Spencer Zschau,

the assistant
state's attorney

now assigned to
the Mundy murder.

MAIA:
What happened to Matan?

You mean the killer?

[chuckles] What are
you, a comedian?

You know, I saw you
in court. Uh...

"I have the killer's name
inside this envelope."

It's very impressive.

That's why I'm on this case.
You got into Matan's head.

You'll find it hard
to get into mine.

Want to bet?

What's your
plea offer?

Well, you should know
our clients intend

to stick together.

Your client paid
for Tony Mundy's murder

and yours was the triggerman,

so 25 years for yours
and 20 for yours.

[laughs]

Get the fuck
out of here!

What, you call
that an offer?

I call that the best you'll get.

But no need to
compel discovery.

What the fuck?
Oh.

Uh, I'm sorry.

Those must be takeout menus.
My mistake.

I assume you'll be getting us
the real discovery

by end of day?

That's definitely
a good assumption.

You probably don't
recognize me, Mr. Blum.

My father was
Alvin Zschau.

That supposed
to mean something to me?

Federal Judge, Seventh Circuit.

You fed lies and smears
to your buddies at the press

to get him to resign.

Never heard of him.
Sounds like a made-up name.

[chuckles softly] I've waited
for this moment for a long time.

Meeting you face-to-face
in order to say,

"See you in court."

[sighs]
That's not good.

He's gonna keep the discovery
from us until the last minute.

Yeah, I'll call for a motion to
compel because now I'm pissed.

Little shit thinking
he can come after me?

What are you doing?

I'm taking off my pants.

Why?Morphine suppository.

Again?

Hey.

Hey.

Are we out of
vanilla yogurt?

Uh, yeah.
I'll, uh, get some tomorrow.

Do you want me to
make you some eggs?

No, I'm good.

Bad day at work?

No.

Ian.

I think we need to...

consider giving
ourselves a break.

From?

Each other.

You mean a separation?

No.

I'm sorry.

Are you?

Ian, this isn't anybody's fault,

and-and I hope that we can
stay civil for Malcolm.

I've already talked
to my lawyer, and I told her

this does not
have to get ugly.

You've talked to a lawyer?

Well, I work in an office
filled with them.

Well, then, I guess
I better get one, too.

VALERIE: Come on in.
You're the last.

It's a temporary space.

A benefactor
loaned it to us.

My name is Valerie Peyser.

I worked for five years
in the Obama White House

in oppo research.

Three weeks ago,
Henry Roberts raised

$6 million
in dark money

to fund an off-the-books
guerrilla oppo operation.

He asked me
to run it.

I've spent the last few weeks
visiting activist meetings,

like the ones
where I found you all.

They have been,
to say the least,

disheartening.

Nobody seems to be willing
to do what is necessary.

RACHELLE:
And what's that?

For those of you
who don't know,

this is Rachelle Max
from DLE Strategies.

Whatever it takes.

Democrats talk like
Trump is the enemy,

but they don't
act like it.

They act like
this is the '90s,

and they're working
under the old rules.

The new rules
are these:

Move fast, be smart,

attack, lie,

don't get caught.

Machiavelli wrote The Prince
for the rulers.

Well, we're
rewriting it for us.

When I gave you my card,

I asked you
if you wanted a mission.

Well, this is it.

Trump's current approval rating.

If we want
to defeat him in 2020,

it has to be this.

Nine points.

That's your mission.

How do we lose
nine points?

REPORTER:
The Trump administration

is increasing
the level of cyanide

allowed in school lunches
in elementary schools.

Critics of the change say
it poisons innocent children,

but the Secretary of Education
says the increase in cyanide

will act as a deterrent...[knock on door]

You all right?Yeah. The news.

Ugh. I know.
It's a nightmare.

Are you still working with
the Democratic Committee, Liz?

Uh, no, I was
too radical. Why?

I may want to call you
about something.

What?

Um, let me get a little
deeper into it first,

make sure it's real.

ADRIAN:
Oh, here they are.

So we're all here.
What do you need, Maia?

You told me a year ago

that if I wanted anything at
this firm, I have to ask for it.

True.

I want an office.

Actually, Maia, that's
a managing partner issue.

Why don't we talk
downstairs?

I'd rather we talk here.LIZ: Uh, well, Maia,

the issue here is space,
and we wish we had more.

We're growing,
and we hope

that all associates, even second
years, will have an office.

I'm a third year.

I try not
to make a fuss,

but Jenna Diamond,
she was given an office

even though she joined the firm
six months after me.

She was working the Kaflin case.
She needed the space.

And I'm working
with Roland Blum.

You are?

Yes. He's my cocounsel
on the Mundy murder.

I didn't know that.

He doesn't have a firm,

so we have to come here
to discuss strategy,

and it is embarrassing
to work at my hot desk.

Okay. Give us a few hours
to discuss this, Maia.

Thank you.

She's using Roland Blum
to get an office.

She still has a point.If we give her an office,

we'll have 20 other associates
pounding on our door.

Will you excuse me?

These are the papers
from your husband's lawyers.

Wow, that was quick.

Okay, what does he want?

To void your prenup,
retain ownership of the house,

full custody of Malcolm.What? Are you kidding me?

He also wants a full accounting
of Reddick/Boseman's books,

claiming you hid money.

Oh, he's going to war.
He-He's overreaching.

No judge is ever
going to agree to this.

Well, there's an exception
in the prenup

in the case of adultery.

He's charging me with adultery?

Yes.

With who?

Diane?

No.

Mr. Cain?

JULIUS:
I'm a little busy.
What do you need?

You're running
for a federal judgeship.

Excuse me?

That was Kevin Jordan
from CPS Systems.

I know him from my dad's
campaign against

one of his
Republican judges.

It was just a friendly meeting.

Then I wouldn't have
those three résumés there,

because the partners
could get the wrong idea.

[grunts] Look, uh...
here's the thing.

I-I haven't told
the partners yet,

because my sponsor said I need

to vet
a consultant first.

Don't worry about me.
I don't care.

By the way, don't hire Lanny.

He hasn't won a campaign
since his divorce.

And Topher drinks.

He thinks everything can
be solved with an op-ed.

Ask him how many other clients
he's representing.

This is bullshit!There was no adultery?

No, not at all.
Good.

So, I'm wondering if maybe
you should hire another lawyer.

N-No. Why?

Well, because this will
get very personal very fast.

We didn't sleep with each other.
This will not get personal.

Well, uh, did you ever
have sexual relations

after your marriage?

No.N...

What?

The...

Um...

What?[whispers indistinctly]

LIZ:
What? No, no, no.

That wasn't,
that wasn't sex.

[quietly]: That would depend
on how you define "sex," Liz.

LIZ:
Wait, wait, wait, what-what
are you talking about here?

Wait, that thing? No. No.

No, the other one.

The bathroom.LIZ: Oh.

ADRIAN: Oh.Yeah, but we weren't, we
weren't divorced yet, so...

Anyway,

that's why I think
you should get another lawyer.

No. No, I feel better about
keeping this in-house.

[sighs]
Okay.

I don't want to put
either of you on the stand,

so I just need you
to both sign affidavits.

Your Honor, thank you
for hearing our motion.

We bring it with
utmost reluctance.

Facing, as we are,

a blatant Brady violation
on the part of Mr....

Schezwan.Mr. Zschau.

If I may, a violation
made more egregious

by the fact we're only six days
from trial.

We're in full compliance

with the rules of discovery,
Your Honor.

I brought the discovery
over myself.

Oh, he did, Your Honor.

And let me show you
what he brought.

A Luger.

A Mauser.

Your Honor, excuse me...

The sidearms of the Wehrmacht,
Your Honor,

along with a note,

which reads: "To the kike...

"and the dyke.

"More Zyklon B,
please.

Send in the Kleins."

This is your attempt
at humor, Mr. Zschau?

This isn't my attempt
at anything, Your Honor.

This is a total fabrication
by Mr. Blum.

Oh, isn't that what we always
hear from Holocaust deniers?

I'm not a Holocaust denier.

You know, it's hard to be a Jew,
Your Honor.

So many times I've asked myself:

Why do they hate us?

Good job.

Yeah. So where we
going with this?

Your fucking hot desk?

Oh, no. No, winners,
they work in here.

LUCCA:
Mr. Boseman and Ms. Reddick
both swear

that there were no sexual
relations after their divorce,

so I believe this court
can easily decide in favor

of the respondent.Unfortunately, for Ms. Quinn,

my client would
like to call a witness.

[chuckles] Your Honor, Mr.
Payton was interviewed for a job

by our firm and
we rejected him,

so he has a chip on his
shoulder about our firm.

My guess is that's why the
petitioner hired this lawyer.

He had an added incentive?

Is that right?It is.

JUDGE:
Okay, do you
have a witness

who can refute these
affidavits, Counselor?

We do, Your Honor.Then let's go.

I'm all ears.

You are going to make
a great federal judge, Julius,

in my opinion.

And the best way
to campaign: op-eds.

All we need
is the right topic.

Hot, but not too hot.

Got it.
[clears throat]: Um...

By the way,

how many other clients
are you representing?

You need op-ed ideas?

How many clients should he have?

Five, maybe less.
How many does he have?

Thirteen.

Do me a favor,
meet with the next one.

I-I don't know what to ask.

You want me to consult?

No, I, uh...

Yes.

Okay.

PAYTON:
Detective Hedren, you were
assigned to a protective detail

for Adrian Boseman on the
night of May 16, were you not?

I was. Nine days earlier,

he was shot during the
commission of a hate crime.

We were being
cautious.

Could you take us through
the events of that night?I saw

Mr. Boseman and Mrs. Lawrence
pull out of the parking garage

of their office
building at 8:45 p.m.

They drove to Mr. Boseman's
apartment building

on Lake Shore Drive

at approximately 9:10.

And approximately
what time did they leave?

They didn't.

Mrs. Lawrence alone
left at 12:20.

That would
place them together

at Adrian Boseman's apartment
for three hours?

I'm just curious, who was with
the child during all this time?

My son was with my husband.

The current one.

Correct.

Ms. Quinn,
anything from you?

Yes.

Um, Detective,
I assume it was

your C.O.,
Commander Lawrence,

who gave you the assignment
to spy on his wife?

Objection as to "spy,"
Your Honor.Sustained.

Doesn't it strike you as odd
that your protective detail

was assigned the day after

Mr. Boseman's assailant
was arrested?

I'm gonna interrupt you
right there.

I understand what you're
trying to do, Counselor.

But the reasons for Captain
Lawrence's surveillance

has no bearing on whether what
was discovered was true or not.

What was the reason for the
three hours in the apartment?

I'd like to hear from both
on that question.

So, unfortunately,
now you two have to testify.

It was caretaking,
you guys, not sex.

For three hours?

I'd just been released
from the hospital.

I needed help at home.

What help?
What did Liz do?

Laundry.

Well, how many loads?

[groans]Oh, for Christ's sake.

Okay, okay.
Jay will look into this.

[sighs]
My guess is

Geoffrey will try to dig up
inconsistencies in your stories,

so I'm afraid I'll have
to witness prep you, both.

Tomorrow.

[sighs]

Our clients did it.

Did you have any doubts?

Yeah, I guess I did.

Clients always do it.

The only difference is
some are easier to get off.

Well, I didn't expect
your client to open

a Cayman account for my client

and pay him 50,000
for the murder.

That's not what
that evidence says.

Roland, it's just the two of us.

It is what it says.
They have us.

No, that is a, um...

[snaps fingers]

Yes, it is a record
for a Cayman account.

To my client, for $50,000.Yes, but it's not for a murder.

To pay for an escort
in the Caymans

when my client
planned to go there.

That's why it was so secretive.
It was about sex.

Not about murder.Ugh, you make my brain hurt.

You tell a competing story.
You make the climax bigger.

When they talk about
a payoff for murder,

you talk about a payoff
for three-way sex!

'Cause that's
what it's about: sex.

Unprotected anal intercourse
with underage Cambodians.

Two sad, stunted men, both
abused when they were children

play out twisted fantasies
of defiling childlike innocence

just as they themselves
were once defiled.

This is not gonna work.

Don't tell me
what's gonna work, princess.

We tell the story,
uh, they buy the story.

Okay.

Okay, tomorrow in court.

Tomorrow.

[overlapping chatter]

Look, look.
The problem is Trump's base.

It's solid.
You'll never get it

below 38%.Because of the religious right.

superiority.So, what do we do?

You need to hit his

What do you mean?

He has troll farms
in several cities.

Every time there's the slightest
drop in Trump's polls,

the farms pump up the fake news.

#MeToo, the midterms...
civil rights.

tends toward justice.

Was that lightning
or a psychotic reaction?

I don't see lightning.

[thunder rumbling]

So... not to blow your mind,

but where does Mr. Trump fit in
on that arc of history?

Or is he tending

Oh, that's right.

speed bump.

Sarandon nirvana.

a three-hop warrant.

[typing, mouse clicking]

VALERIE:
No, wait, wait, wait. Try this.

It's not really a day
trader on Randolph.

They're hiding
illegal aliens there

until they can send them
to Southern states.

[laughter]No. To MS-13.

Oh!So they can kill women.

[laughs]Wait, wait, it's too silly.

We want people to believe this,
to take this seriously.

It's not about being
taken seriously.

It's about saying it
with conviction,

wording it like
a news story.

DIANE:
Put it in the mouth of P-Anon.

Fuck, yeah, you're right.

Who's P-Anon?

POLLY:
Our version of QAnon.

We'll make him a senior official
in the Trump administration

who has access
to confidential documents

and wants to share it on 4chan.[laughter]

Hey! We got to get
P-Anon T-shirts.

Okay. It's in four waves.

First, a fake news story
on a raid

on the day trader on Randolph.

The results of the raid
were kept secret.Yes.

Good.

And a Facebook account
of a mother who can't find

her ten-year-old and thinks
she's in that building.

[laughter]Oh!

I got to tell you,
this is really satisfying.

We need beers.

[laughter]

Well, this is all
very impressive, Lanny.

Thank you, Julius.

I think you'd make
a great judge,

so I can't wait to get started.
[chuckles]

MARISSA:
Just a few questions.

You have the Judge Richmond
campaign listed on your resume?

Uh, I do. Yes.

Nice guy.

But I thought Gene Kloves
ran that campaign.

[clears throat]

Well, that
leaves just one.

Melissa Long.

She's probably
the best, honestly.

I'd go with her.

Uh, Marissa.

Thanks.

Oh, no problem.
It's just what I do.

LUCCA:
On the night in question,
Ms. Reddick took you home?

Yes. She was helping me as
a friend and a colleague.

I couldn't have gotten
through it without her.

Does any of that
"helping" involve

having her in your bedroom?

Not in the way that you mean.

Tell me what way I mean.

So you're the tough questioner?

Tell me what I mean.

ADRIAN:
You're implying there
was some sexual contact.

But there wasn't?

I helped him place pillows
and put things within reach.

What things?

Uh, small things, like
his cell phone, water,

pain pills.

And how long did that take?

Ten minutes.

You were in the bathroom
for only ten minutes?

No.Then how long?

I-I don't know.
Uh, he was exhausted,

so probably most of the time.

You talked about work
for two hours and 50 minutes?

And our marriage.
And why it didn't work out.

And why didn't it?

Listen, I don't think they're
gonna ask me that, so we can...

If it makes you
uncomfortable, they will.

We were trying to
remember the last time

that we were
in a hospital together.

Um, and it was in the last
year of our marriage.

I had ruptured my appendix,

and Adrian was
in the hospital with me.

He stayed with me night and day.

He's very good

in emergency situations.

So, this was your chance
to return the favor?

Yes.

JAY: And what did
"returning the favor" entail?

What did Liz say?

Well, we'd rather
get your memory.

The painkillers
hadn't kicked in yet,

so Liz started humming a song
to me that I had hummed to her.

LUCCA:
What song was that?

♪ One bright morning,
when my life is over ♪

LIZ:
♪ I'll fly away

♪ I'll fly away

♪ Oh, glory

♪ I'll fly away

♪ When I die

♪ Hallelujah,
by and by ♪

♪ I'll fly

♪ Away.♪

"I'll Fly Away."

Good.

I think you're both ready.

[door opens]

We can't wait anymore.[door closes]

Yes, I know, Your Honor.
I think Mr. Blum might have had

a dental appointment
that went too long.

Well, get him in here.
Get him in here this afternoon!

Mr. Blum, where are you?!
You missed court!

Mr....

Where's Mr. Blum?

Did you bring granola?

What? No.

Roland?

Roland.

Roland, wake up.[snoring]

Wake-- I got us a delay
until this afternoon,

but I need you to wake up, okay?
You got to get dressed.

Rol--

[grunts]Roland, wake up.

[snoring, phone vibrating]

[grunting]

Hi. Uh, this is Roland Blum's
assistant... Bambi.

Uh, I believe
we missed your call.

Will he know
what this is regarding?

SPENCER:
What this is regarding
is a plea deal

I was making
with Roland Blum.

I couldn't get ahold of Blum.

So here I am.

What's the offer?

The same I offered Blum.

You get your client to testify
against Avery Ward,

we'll give him 18 months.

[sighs, thunder rumbles softly]

No.

You want to go back to court?

I wouldn't mind that.

What's that about?

MAIA:
Honesty.

Make it six months,
and I'll take it to my client.

Six months for murder?

Six months,
and you get a conviction

of the real person responsible.

Face it, you want
one big conviction,

not two small ones.

Done.

I hope you've got a gun.

Why?

You just screwed over
Roland Blum.

I had a ruptured appendix
when we were married,

and Adrian stayed with me
in the hospital

and sang
"I'll Fly Away" to me.

I was returning
the favor.

For three hours?

I wanted to wait
till he was asleep.

Makes sense to me.
Anything else, Counselor?

One more thing,
Your Honor.

I have an affidavit from
Detective Hedren.

When you left Mr. Boseman's
residence that night,

he followed you
to a Rite Aid.

Uh, objection, Your Honor.
[chuckles] This is crazy.

He followed her?

Why was he following her

when he was there
to protect Mr. Boseman?

Because he was actually
there to spy, obviously.

But...

what did he find?He saw you purchasing

in that Rite Aid
a nonprescription

morning-after pill.

Did he have that correct,
Ms. Reddick?

Your Honor, I'd like a recess
to review this affidavit.

Do we have an answer
for this?You're not gonna like it.

REPORTER: As if his plate
wasn't full enough,

presidential son-in-law
and senior advisor Jared Kushner

has been tasked with overhauling

the nation's
circus entertainment.

Kushner promises
to repeal regulations

preventing the mistreatment
of elephants

and on the number of clowns
permissible in a single vehicle.

12 were arrested
and five others were injured

when a riot broke out
at a Chicago day trading firm

on Randolph.

A window was broken
and employees were scattered

after an Internet rumor
started up

that the business was actually
an elaborate pedophile ring.

Whoa. Whoa.

MAN: They don't want us
to know the truth!Yes!

There are people in there
killing and raping babies!

REPORTER: No word
on how the rumor started,

but most point to a high-ranking
Trump official.

P-Anon forever!

Yes!

[laughs]

[line ringing]

Valerie.

AUTOMATED VOICE: We're sorry.
You've reached a number

that has been disconnected
or is no longer in service.

What?

Valerie?

AUTOMATED VOICE: We're sorry.
You've reached a number

that has been disconnected
or is no longer in service.

AUTOMATED VOICE: We're sorry.
You've reached a number

that has been disconnected
or is no longer in service.

Well, that's too bad for Diane.

You think it's upstairs?

I don't know. It's weird.

We send that Valerie name
up there,

and then the next day
she's gone.

Maybe she's just on vacation.

What? Why do you care?

I don't know.

I don't want Diane to end up
at some black site.

No, they don't do
black sites anymore.

They do, um, sweet little

bed-and-breakfasts
in Costa Rica, or something.

Hey, um, I sent you something.

It's not another
clown video, is it?

Why would I send you
another clown video?

[cackling]

MELISSA:
I'm glad I passed the test.

We need more black conservatives
in power.

So I'll send over contracts.

Good. You were
my first choice.

[chuckles] And I only
will charge you half

on this first hour.

Good. Wait.
What do you mean?

I won't charge you
for the full hour.

For this interview?

Yes.

But isn't it
an interview?

Yes.

W-Wait, I'm sorry.

I don't understand
why I'm being charged at all.

Look, we can probably
work out an accommodation.

Uh, how much is an hour?
Just curious.

750.

But again,

we'll find a way
to discount this first hour.

[chuckles softly]

[door opens, closes]

I want you to do it.What?

Run my judicial campaign.

Are you serious?Yes.

I've gotten better advice
from you these last few days

than a long line
of these idiots.

[sighs]
Okay.

Okay.

♪

So you did purchase
a morning-after pill?

Yes.
And you understand

how suspicious
that might appear?

The timing?Yes.

Then why
did you buy it?

My husband had wanted us
to have another child

in order to save our marriage,
and we had been trying.

And I-I...

[sighs] I was talking
to Mr. Boseman that night

about ourmarriage
and why it had failed.

And I realized
that I did not want

to bring up
another child with Ian.

Horseshit.JUDGE: Captain.

No. Your attorney can put you
on the stand if he wants.

So this has
nothing to do

with sleeping
with Mr. Boseman?No.

Not at all.

Okay. Any questions, Counselor?

No.

But I do for
Mr. Boseman.

[thunder rumbling]JUDGE: You've been quite

the subject of interest
in here, sir.

That's my understanding.

I'm ready to answer
any question.

Well, I'm sure I have
a dozen, but let's let

Mr. Payton start.

Hi.

Hi.

Have you...

found a job yet, sir?

[laughs]
Not yet.

But thank you
for your concern.

Let's see.

[clears throat]

What have I given
you, Mr. Boseman?

Well...

I'm not sure
how you acquired these, sir,

but they look to be
statements of accounts

for our firm,
Reddick/Boseman.
Do you see

the highlighted payments
made in March of this year?

I do.

Could you read their
description aloud, please?

Each one says,
"Reddick, payment."

Other than your ex-wife,

was there anyone else
working at your law firm

in March of this year
with the last name Reddick?

No.
Your Honor, I'd like

to submit these statements
into evidence.

They show payments
of over $400,000

to Liz Reddick that she has not
disclosed to her husband.

Would you care to explain
these payments, Mr. Boseman?

JUDGE:
My guess is

you'd like to take
a recess, Ms. Quinn?

I know I'm not a partner,
so I'm not privy

to the firm's finances,
but I cannot be your attorney

if you keep me
in the dark.

You have to
tell me everything.

So what are
those Reddick payments?

You're under oath;
it's gonna come out

when you go
back into court.

Has the firm been paying you
for some kind of tax dodge?

LIZ:
No, no.

LUCCA: Adrian?ADRIAN: No, no, no, no, no.

So what are
these payments?They're for your father?

For Carl?

But they continued
after he died.

Some are
just a month ago.

To pay off the women.

To keep them quiet.

[chuckles]

There are women?

Yeah, we have
NDAs with four.

Oh, my God.

What a nightmare.

I came to this firm
because of him.

Because of his reputation.

Which we would
like to preserve.

What do you want to do?

Liz?

Give him what
he wants, Liz. Liz.Oh, no...

Liz, give him what he wants.

He doesn't want
full custody.

Okay? He's just using
that to get back at me.

[sighs]

No. I get full custody.

We'll just void the prenup.

[sighs]

I hate that he wins
'cause of this.

So do I.

Let's talk.
She's ready to make a deal.

[elevator bell dings]

JUDGE:
Hold the elevator.

Oh. Hey.

Hey.
Hi.

[door closes]

I thought you judges
had your own elevator.

Nope, we ride
with the unwashed.

Mm. Good thing I wash.

Good thing you do.

[chuckles]

So you're
settling, right?

The case?

Yeah. Yeah.

Why?

I don't date witnesses
in my court.

[elevator bell dings]

Yeah.

Irresistible.

The troll farm is gone.

[cheering]

May be temporary,
but it's great news.

So where's Valerie?

[applause stops]I don't know.

I tried calling her.
Her phone is disconnected.

And I texted.

We should watch the phones
and texts to each other.

On 4chan, they talk about
Trump using the NSA

to go after his enemies.

Are we really at that point?

Arresting political enemies?

No, but Nixon had
his enemies lists.

Do we think Trump doesn't?

So what are you saying?

That there are black sites
and kidnappings?

I don't know what
we're talking about.

We have a private
investigator at my firm.

I'll ask him to look
into what happened.

But let's not let
paranoia eat away at us.

We're not in a
banana republic here.

[distorted growling]

[distorted chatter]

[distorted cackling]

[computer chimes]

CLOWN:
It's me. [laughing]

[mouse clicks, video stops]

She's writing a text.What does it say?

STEPHEN:
"Need you to find the
whereabouts of Valerie Peyser.

No more texts.
Just talk in person."

Ah, Diane is onto us.

Who is the text to?

No idea. Someone
else at the firm.

[typing]

"Jay Dipersia."

There we go,
that's a new name.

Well, don't add him in.

What do you mean? Why not?
It sounds foreign.

I don't know.

Makes me feel like
we're the bad guys.

We're not the bad guys.
We're just doing our job.

We're just... observers.

I don't think we are.Oh, God.

You've gotten philosophical.

Don't fall in love, okay?

I'm sending him upstairs.

[typing]

Good luck,
Jay Dipersia.

Maia Rindell!

Where are you?

You mousy little viper.

MARISSA:
All right, sir, I'm
gonna need you to...

Ah, you got an office!

You fucking
backstabbing bitch!

You fucked over my client
and you violated my trust.

Have you no decency?!

[scoffs]
Are you serious?

You do this after

the love I showed you?!

[yelling]

[growls]

See, is that
supposed to scare me?

Am I supposed to beg
your forgiveness?

No, I beat you
at your own game,

and it wasn't
difficult because

you were stoned and sloppy
and you left me an opening.

I don't need

the "love" of a, of a
sick, washed-up fuck

who's pretending that he can
cut it when he fucking can't!

[onlookers murmuring]

[panting]

Now get the fuck out of here.

[glass clinking]

[thunder rumbling]

The fuck are you looking at?

I have news
on Valerie Peyser.

That was fast.

Where did you find her?

In New York.
Good.

She said she was going there
to confer with Obama's people.

When will she be back?

Not for a while.

But she's alive?Yes.

Do you, uh, have
her contact info?

I do.

Did you pay her any money?

Did I... Why?

Valerie Peyser
is a made-up name.

Valerie Underhill

is from Elk Creek,
Wisconsin.

She's currently serving
eight months in Rikers

for bilking
three SoHo hotels.

In 2014, she was arrested
for check-kiting.

In 2016, for
identity theft.

[sighs softly]

She befriends wealthy women,
gains their confidence,

acquires their
credit card numbers,

and uses their identity
to con the next person.

Been doing this for the last
decade, in L.A., Chicago,

Miami and New York.

[whispers]:
Oh, my God.

But there was never
any money involved.

My guess is she would've
asked for the contributions

at the next meeting until
the PAC money arrived.

Luckily for you, she returned
to New York to gather her things

from the W Hotel
and was arrested.

Oh, my God.

Here's her
arrest record

and my interview with
the New York detective.

Do you want me to go with you
to brief them?

Them?

Your group.

Oh.

No, um, I will.

I'm sorry.
