07:14C'est bon, c'est bon, c'est bon, c'est bon.
07:36C'est bon, c'est bon.
08:09C'est bon.
08:16Bon appétit.
08:17Miss Vaughn,
08:18people say a good litigator
08:20is a good orator,
08:21one who can hammer words into swords
08:24and weaponize the English language.
08:26Do you find that to be true?
08:29Qu'est-ce que c'est le monde le plus patente d'invention?
08:33La mousetrap.
08:36Désolée de 4 000 ans, c'est remarquable simple.
08:39Bait, trigger, strike.
08:42Le parfait exemple de l'énergie écrite.
08:45Elle s'est là, en silence.
08:49No showmanship, no argument,
08:52no need to renounce sa présence.
08:55En fait, c'est le meilleur travail en total darkness.
08:58It simply waits,
09:01holding its power in reserve until the very last instant.
09:05And then, without warning,
09:10it fulfills its purpose with deadly efficiency.
09:14Do I think a good litigator knows how to weaponize language?
09:21Perhaps.
09:22But that is not your most vital talent.
09:25What is?
09:29Knowing when to strike.
09:40The Q&A was like a Neotai Mori experience.
09:45You know where they serve sushi on a naked woman?
09:48I'm aware.
09:52Don't look up sushi at her at 2 o'clock.
09:55Miss Vaughn, I enjoyed the interview, so...
09:57Miss Vaughn isn't taking any more questions.
10:04Miss Vaughn, if I could just...
10:05If I could steal you from a moment...
10:06It's all right, it's all right.
10:07Megan is my paralegal.
10:08Careful, she bites.
10:10So, you've been calling my office, Miss Blankmore.
10:13Um, you know my name?
10:14Well, I appreciate what you've been going through since great benefit.
10:16The jury got it wrong.
10:18There's an appeal in process.
10:20Look, Miss Vaughn,
10:20I think I would be an asset to your firm
10:23if I could...
10:24If I could just...
10:25This is where you listen.
10:29Life leaves fingerprints, darling.
10:32Your colleague Brad Noonan is in prison.
10:34Your client has been indicted,
10:36followed soon after by my dear friend Leo Drummond.
10:38But you...
10:40You somehow emerged without a scratch.
10:44Because I did nothing wrong.
10:46You believe the fact that you weren't indicted is exculpatory.
10:50Everyone else thinks it's because you cooperated.
10:52No, that's...
10:53That's...
10:53Perhaps the reason why you're so toxic
10:55isn't the result of the spectacular loss
10:57in your one and only case.
11:00Perhaps
11:01it's because you can't be trusted.
11:08That's the sound of a mousetrap snapping.
11:16You want me, Stone and Associates?
11:18Mr. Baylor's not in at the moment.
11:20No.
11:21I can leave him a message if you'd like.
11:24Let me ask you something.
11:26Hmm?
11:26Why don't you just make the kid a partner?
11:30Because it's not always a great thing
11:31to get what you want the minute you want it.
11:33Well, we could lose him.
11:34If he goes to another Trent and Brent,
11:35he'll be back in a month.
11:36I'm not so sure.
11:38Why is he so restless anyway?
11:39Because he wants to do something meaningful.
11:43You know I can hear everything
11:45you guys are saying, right?
11:47Yep.
11:47Our address is on our website.
11:49I'm looking for Bruiser.
11:51Relax, would you?
11:52There's nothing I haven't said to your face.
11:56Holy shit.
11:57What?
11:59Oh, boy.
12:00What the hell is he doing here?
12:02Hey, Julep.
12:04Who is that?
12:05My ex-husband.
12:12You couldn't call first?
12:13You blocked my number, remember?
12:15I had to.
12:16Every time you'd call,
12:17I'd get rage texts from your stripper wife.
12:20That was a long time ago,
12:21and Lynette's not a stripper.
12:22She's Channel 4's chief meteorologist.
12:24Oh, right.
12:26Strippers provide an actual service to society.
12:28She tells people when it's gonna rain.
12:30So does Alexa.
12:31Older story in the book, Rudy.
12:33Boy meets girl,
12:34boy gets drafted to the big leagues,
12:36boy dumps her for bikini model turned weather girl.
12:38What are you doing?
12:39What do you mean?
12:40What does it look like I'm doing?
12:41You know everybody studies for the bar online these days.
12:43Online?
12:43What are you talking about?
12:44I'm orally inclined.
12:45It works for me.
12:46Literally?
12:46It doesn't.
12:47Let's start over.
12:49Congrats.
12:50On what?
12:51The big case.
12:52I saw it on the news.
12:53You did good.
12:54And you look good.
12:55Oh, cut the shit, Tom.
12:57I can't help you.
12:58Even if I wanted to,
12:59which I definitely do not.
13:02The money's all tied up in big words
13:03you wouldn't understand.
13:04I don't need money this time.
13:10I need a lawyer.
13:12I got mail.
13:13Lots of it.
13:14Oh!
13:15Thank you, Delphine.
13:17Chocolate on your fingers.
13:18Oh, yeah.
13:19I'm saving it for later.
13:21I like her.
13:22Yeah, me too, right?
13:31Been there.
13:40Oh, look at this one.
13:42From your nephew.
13:43I don't have a nephew.
13:44Uh, well, apparently you do.
13:46And maybe if you're a little more involved,
13:48little Victor here wouldn't be in Juby Prison.
13:49You know how many of these letters I've been getting?
13:51Yeah.
13:51I like to read them on the can.
13:53Dear Uncle Rudy,
13:54how's life?
13:56Pen's not easy.
13:57Maybe I'll get used to it.
14:00I'm working on my jump shot.
14:02Just like you taught me.
14:03Happy birthday.
14:05A dollar is worth more than meets the eye.
14:07That's some sage advice, my friend.
14:09This could be a 60-year-old man for all we know.
14:11It's stamped Medford Juvenile Detention.
14:15This kid's my best arm.
14:17He's been pumping cheddar since the day we signed him.
14:20He could go to the show someday
14:21if he's not ruined by this.
14:22Or a torn ACL.
14:24UCL.
14:24Low blow.
14:25He's a good kid, Julep.
14:27Call me that again and it will be a torn ACL.
14:32All right, so this kid.
14:34You wake up with a dead hooker in his bed?
14:37He might have thrown a game.
14:38Minor league game, minor league crime.
14:40Who gives a shit?
14:41Oh, you'd be surprised.
14:42All the online betting,
14:43there's a lot of action down in the bushes.
14:45So, wait a second.
14:46You want me to defend some hotshot kid
14:48who cheated on his own team?
14:51Are you not seeing the irony here?
14:54Listen, Bruiser.
14:56This kid's special.
14:58He's not like me.
15:00What's in a name?
15:03Fighting.
15:04Fighting for your name.
15:06I don't know.
15:07It feels like I'm swimming.
15:08A dollar is worth more than meets the eye.
15:11It's just strange.
15:13A kid pretending to be your nephew
15:15sends you a birthday card from prison.
15:16Trademark infringement.
15:18Product confusion.
15:22Who's gonna even care?
15:23Unless he couldn't send you a normal letter.
15:26Hey, what's that thing that Aristotle said
15:27about knowing thyself?
15:29Aristotle?
15:30Are you trying to blow this case?
15:33I'm trying to make it mean something.
15:35More than just...
15:36money.
15:37Maybe this kid's a puzzler.
15:38What do you mean?
15:39Well, in the puzzler world,
15:41that's what we call a signifier,
15:42i.e. a clue.
15:44The puzzler world?
15:45I contain multitudes.
15:48Tom,
15:48do you know how I got to Milwaukee?
15:53I sold my mother's watch for a plane ticket
15:56so I could see my man pitch his first major league game,
16:00called you as I was hustling my way into the locker room
16:03so you would think that I was still at school,
16:05and I round the corner, and there you are,
16:08on the phone,
16:09telling me how much you miss me,
16:11how much you love me,
16:14all while getting blown by Lynette
16:16on a goddamn massage table.
16:20It's a long time to hold a grudge.
16:22Oh, a 20-year grudge isn't old.
16:25It's vintage.
16:27Ready to be decanted.
16:30Now get out.
16:41Hey, Dick.
16:42Up yours, Tom.
16:43Good talk.
16:44All right, guys.
16:45I think I cracked it.
16:47Got an opening argument?
16:49Yeah, I think so.
16:51Oh, dude.
16:54More than meets the eye.
16:57What are you blathering on about?
16:58The dollar's the cipher.
16:59The serial number, right?
17:00So this little genius wrote us a letter
17:02specifically based on this number.
17:08Okay, look.
17:09So each number corresponds
17:11to a specific word in the letter, right?
17:14So the first number is four.
17:16The fourth word is how.
17:18First letter of which is H.
17:20The next number is eight.
17:22Eighth word is easy.
17:23First letter, E.
17:25Next is five.
17:26The fifth word is life.
17:28L.
17:28Then we have the sixth word, which is pens.
17:31Then the ninth number is maybe M.
17:33And then the last number is eight,
17:34so we're back to our easy E.
17:37Help me.
17:38I'll be damned.
17:39Why would he go to all that trouble?
17:41Because we're reading his mail.
17:42And he's scared.
17:43Yes.
17:52Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go.
17:56Somebody up and out.
17:58You're running a sound.
18:05Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go.
18:08Well, that's the third one this week.
18:11What am I going to do with this?
18:12A toothbrush, Ev?
18:14Don't you make that some guy on Reddit?
18:16You can't go in the hole.
18:17Relax, that's not going to happen.
18:19Watch this.
18:23How'd you do that?
18:25Magic.
18:26Let's go, gentlemen.
18:27Come on, let's go.
18:28Get off.
18:32You hiding something there, huh?
18:35What the hell is this?
18:37I told him I did just that brush.
18:40You know what this is?
18:42This looks like another six months to me.
18:52This is a story about David and Goliath.
18:55You know, it takes courage to pick up that stone.
18:59And say, no more.
19:01And today, that courage belongs to Nabisco.
19:05I know what you're thinking.
19:07How could Nabisco be David in any story?
19:12Believe me, I ask myself the same thing.
19:15But fairness isn't just for the underdog.
19:23It's for anyone who plays by the rules.
19:29Now, the defendants call this Melomar.
19:33Not Melomar.
19:36Melomar.
19:37But it's the same chocolate coating.
19:40What do you see?
19:41The same marshmallow inside,
19:43but it is missing one key ingredient.
19:46You can't copyright it.
19:50Integrity.
19:52Oh, my lord, won't you come down to me?
19:57Oh, my lord.
19:59And this, this is the bullpen.
20:02Yeah.
20:02See, I find that not having assigned offices
20:04keeps everyone on their toes.
20:06That's very Silicon Valley.
20:07Ah, those tech boys are slicker than Alice, huh?
20:09We're just working folk out here,
20:11trying to make a dollar holler.
20:12No doors, no tiles,
20:13just everyone digging the same dirt.
20:14Feed that bird, Billy.
20:16That does sound refreshing.
20:18I mean, your work is primarily personal injury.
20:20Oh, well, we got slip and falls, fender benders,
20:22the occasional dog bite.
20:23Hey, Josephine, what do you call them, dogs?
20:25Everyone's trotting around.
20:26You know, they mush them all together so you don't shake.
20:28Sixty percent of our canine lot of duty work.
20:31Keep it simple here.
20:33No base, all commission, you eat what you kill.
20:35You know, most of our business never even sees a courtroom.
20:37So you don't try cases.
20:39No.
20:39Trials are for people who like to lose money slow.
20:42We get in, we get paid, and we get gone.
20:44Well, what if you didn't have to choose?
20:46If you built a small trial unit,
20:48just one or two strong cases a quarter,
20:50you'd scare the insurers.
20:52They'd pay out faster on the rest and for more.
20:54I admire the gumption.
20:55I really do, but this place runs on volume.
20:58Big verdicts make headlines.
21:00Small ones, they pay a rent.
21:02You could do both.
21:04Build your reputation, raise the floor.
21:06Listen, you can dress it up all you want, darling,
21:08but lipstick don't turn a pig into a paralegal.
21:10This place never gonna be white shoe.
21:12Well, not with that attitude.
21:15Thank you, Dina.
21:17Listen, you change your mind.
21:18We always got room for a closer.
21:20The pizza's hot, the coffee's free,
21:21and we get a discount at dry cleaners next door.
21:25I'll think about it.
21:26All right, well, don't think too long now,
21:28because pride is a hell of a diet.
21:31Thank you for your time.
21:33All right.
21:39What are we doing here?
21:40Shh, do me a favor.
21:41Just be cool.
21:42Okay, be cool.
21:43Jerry, how you doing, pal?
21:44You, uh, got room in there for two more?
21:47Sure thing, Doc.
21:48Great.
21:48Hey, hey, how do you sister for me?
21:52What are you doing?
21:53Get in here.
21:53Come on.
22:06Go, go, go, go.
22:07No more bets.
22:09No more bets.
22:10Yeah!
22:10Copy that.
22:1150 on Big Red.
22:11Why are we here?
22:13I just want to say a quick hi
22:14to a certain public defender bottom feeder
22:18who happens to represent Victor Sofratis.
22:20This is the kid with the letter?
22:22You mean the unjustly imprisoned 12-year-old
22:25crying out to his favorite uncle for help?
22:27Yes.
22:27I'm not heartless.
22:28I have a taste to try.
22:30Exactly.
22:31You are not heartless.
22:32All right, so don't be.
22:33Come on.
22:34Come on.
22:35Come on.
22:35The whole bunch.
22:37How much?
22:38Yeah!
22:39Come on, buddy.
22:40Come on, your money.
22:41Come on.
22:42Nice and easy.
22:42Here we go, baby.
22:44Yeah!
22:45There we go!
22:46C and A for 10.
22:4720 on hard six.
22:4820 on hard six.
22:4920.
22:50He's not done yet.
22:51Let's go.
22:5125 out.
22:5310.
22:5310 on C and A.
22:54Wait, there he is.
22:54Here we go.
22:55Crap table.
22:55Come on.
22:57Hey, hey, hey, hey.
22:59Louis V.
22:59Still changing gravity?
23:01Still pretending to be a lawyer?
23:03Oh, four, four.
23:04Easy four.
23:05Shooter stays hot.
23:06Hard way comes down.
23:07Sir, if you're going to stand at the table,
23:08you've got to make a bet.
23:09It's a $25 minimum.
23:1045 bucks.
23:10Hey, hey, you got some cash?
23:12How much?
23:1325.
23:14Oh, I only have 100.
23:15Yeah, that's perfect.
23:16Yeah, I'll do 425s.
23:18425s for the gentlemen.
23:1910 on 4, 5, yo.
23:21I'm going to do 25 on the pass line,
23:23all the hard ways, 5 back.
23:24Jake, why are you here?
23:26I'm just here to jog your memory.
23:28Client of yours, kid by the name of Victor Sofratis.
23:31Never heard of him.
23:32Good time you're easy.
23:32Six.
23:33Easy six.
23:33Hard way comes down.
23:35Oh, yeah, baby.
23:35Hey, sir.
23:36Did I just lose?
23:36Did you just lose?
23:38Yes, sir, you did.
23:39I did.
23:39All right, let's go 5 back on the hard 6.
23:41I'm sure you remember him, okay?
23:43He's a 12-year-old kid.
23:44He hacked his entire school network.
23:46Rick rolled every classroom.
23:48Halloran gave him 3 years at the pen.
23:513 years for Rick Astley?
23:52Yeah, I guess justice did give him up.
23:54That's a sealed juvenile case.
23:57Here we go.
23:58You shouldn't be sniffing around that file.
24:00And if you don't mind, I'm having a hot freaking roll here.
24:06Yes!
24:07Well, he wrote to me.
24:08He said he's looking for new counsel.
24:10He's wasting income.
24:11Still his lawyer.
24:12All right, give me a 25 on 5.
24:14If you're still his lawyer, why hasn't he heard from you?
24:17Because I already did my part.
24:20He pled.
24:21Case closed.
24:23But he pled?
24:255, 5.
24:26You could have filed for post-conviction relief,
24:28asked for reconsideration.
24:29Kid took a deal.
24:31That's the end of it.
24:32He's 12 years old.
24:33You think 3 years is justice?
24:34I think that's the sentence.
24:38Yeah, let's see.
24:39Hit that back on.
24:40Come on, now.
24:41Come on, now.
24:41Wait for me.
24:43Wait for me.
24:43Wait for me.
24:44Wait for me.
24:44Wait for me.
24:45Wait for me.
24:45Wait for me.
24:47Who the hell walks away from a heater?
24:49How many of you doesn't want to answer questions?
25:05Guys, please, I'm fine.
25:07I've been networking, been taking some really interesting meetings.
25:11I'm good.
25:12I'm great, actually.
25:14Just hear me out.
25:15Dad, do you really think that's a good idea?
25:17What?
25:19Me coming to work for you.
25:22No, no, no, no.
25:24I was going to say move back in with us.
25:26You know, until you figure out your next move.
25:30Wow, okay.
25:31Um, am I really that radioactive?
25:34Of course not.
25:35It's just a little difficult while you're still under investigation.
25:39No, you were the one who told me it was my job to bend the law
25:41and see how elastic it is, remember?
25:43And then the next thing I knew, I'm sitting with the FBI.
25:45I think you might have read more into that than I meant.
25:49What?
25:49Are you going to take any responsibility for this?
25:50Are you going to take any responsibility?
25:52That's not fair.
25:53I didn't even commit a crime.
25:56You committed the greatest crime of all.
25:59You lost.
26:01And you're right.
26:02It's not fair.
26:03You're a better lawyer than Rudy will ever be.
26:06Wow, you finally remembered his name.
26:09I am going to run to the men's room.
26:22Did you ever congratulate him?
26:25Who?
26:26Rudy?
26:26No.
26:27No, Mom.
26:28Believe me, I'm the last person he wants to hear from.
26:31You two are so in love.
26:33That was a long time ago.
26:36Not so long.
26:38Honey, do you mind if I give you a little advice?
26:40Everyone else seems to, so, sure.
26:43Look, I know you feel like you've lost everything.
26:46Haven't I?
26:47I lost the case.
26:48I lost my job.
26:50I lost my boyfriend.
26:51You and Dad are paying my rent.
26:54What's left?
26:56You.
26:58You're what's left.
27:00Every time we've spoken in the past three months,
27:02you've told me how everybody got it wrong.
27:05Sweetheart.
27:07Have you once stopped and asked where you went from?
27:12Mm-hmm.
27:23Oh, hey.
27:24Got you coffee.
27:25Thanks.
27:27Hey, you know what?
27:27Quick gut check.
27:28I was thinking, um,
27:30depot testimony first,
27:32and then I'm going to box them with the ratios on them.
27:33Rudy, we settled.
27:35What do you mean?
27:36We're cross-examining the lead food scientists or not.
27:39No, we're not, because they settled.
27:41I know.
27:43Courtists interrupt us.
27:46How much?
27:47Nothing.
27:48Consent decree and permanent injunction.
27:50They stop making the copycat,
27:52destroy the molds, and send recall notices.
27:55So, we get 10% of zero?
27:58See, and that's the thing about your first case,
27:59going the distance.
28:01You expect all of them to.
28:03You're still a win, Rudy.
28:05Congrats.
28:11Look, I know you want to be partner,
28:14but trust me when I tell you
28:16there's a risk in getting too much too soon.
28:19Just ask my ex.
28:21Tom was faced with a decision.
28:23Stay with a great team
28:25who felt he needed more seasoning in the minors,
28:27or go to a shitty team
28:29who put him right in the show.
28:30He chose the show.
28:31He tore his UCL in the first week.
28:34He wasn't ready.
28:37Right now, this works.
28:39I set the table,
28:40you sharpen the knife.
28:42Anything more than that
28:43wouldn't be good for me.
28:44Definitely wouldn't be good for you.
28:48You're down some stone?
28:50Yeah.
28:54Namaste.
29:02I'm going to kill him.
29:31Hey.
29:33How you doing, Dex Shiflin?
29:37Right, right.
29:38Uh, are you, uh,
29:40Victor Sofrati's father?
29:42Step.
29:43I like to think of it
29:44as the dad who stepped up.
29:45Am I right?
29:47What do you want?
29:48Uh, well,
29:49I want to talk to you
29:49about Victor's case.
29:51He reached out to our law firm,
29:52but you know the whole
29:53juvenile court system,
29:54all the files and transcripts
29:56are sealed,
29:57so if we want to help Victor...
29:58No, no, no, no.
29:59Ain't no helping that boy.
30:01Kid's a compulsive liar.
30:04Right, well, uh,
30:06have you, uh,
30:08considered an appeal?
30:10Because the window
30:10for this closes on Monday.
30:11I don't know about any of that.
30:13Sir, we're just concerned
30:14that your son...
30:15He is not my son.
30:16I told you that, yeah?
30:17Okay.
30:18Buddy, I'm just here
30:19because I think Victor
30:20might be in trouble.
30:23Look,
30:24I've washed my hands
30:25of that boy.
30:27Kid's been a migraine
30:28since the day I married
30:29his mother.
30:31Well, speaking of his mother,
30:33if I wanted to talk to her
30:35about an appeal,
30:36you know where I might find her?
30:39Yep.
30:42Marshview Cemetery.
30:47All right, have a great day.
31:09How'd I lock that?
31:14You really bought yogis.
31:19I, um,
31:21I heard you're living
31:22in the apartment upstairs.
31:29and I read that alumni profile
31:32they did on you.
31:35It was incredible.
31:38I saw you on TV.
31:42You, um,
31:45you really,
31:46you really did it.
31:47It's literally everything
31:49you ever dreamed of,
31:50and I,
31:54I just wanted to say
31:55congratulations.
32:03I, um,
32:07I don't know why I did
32:09what I did.
32:17Rudy,
32:18I should have never used
32:19your brother in that way.
32:20I, um,
32:24I was just so caught up
32:26in
32:28the case,
32:29the firm,
32:30Leo.
32:31I just,
32:31I think I convinced myself
32:32that I was doing my job.
32:41Rudy, I'm sorry.
32:52Are you saying anything?
32:58We're closed.
33:24That was unexpected.
33:28What do you think
33:28she really wants?
33:29I don't know.
33:31Maybe she just really
33:32wanted to apologize.
33:35Not a chance.
33:51All right, but just hear me out,
33:53okay?
33:54Nabisco,
33:54it was a win,
33:55no matter how you look at it.
33:56It is hard to make a meal
33:57out of cookies,
33:58though.
33:58Lord knows that I've tried.
33:59Wait, wait, no, stop.
34:00Just sit down, sit down.
34:01What I'm trying to say is
34:03you're not cookies,
34:04okay?
34:04And you are definitely
34:05not Fletcher Kincaid.
34:07Rudy, you're not doing
34:08what you're meant to do.
34:09I know it doesn't always
34:10pay the bills, okay?
34:11But,
34:13Rudy, you fight bullies.
34:14And right now,
34:15this kid Victor,
34:15he needs a Rudy Baylor
34:17on his side
34:17because he's got nobody else.
34:18Deck.
34:19No, no, let me finish.
34:20Let me finish.
34:20Because as you,
34:21as you said, right?
34:22Literally, as you said,
34:24it's not about the fight.
34:27It's about who
34:28you fight for.
34:30Let's go talk to him.
34:32That's it?
34:32You want to talk?
34:33I'll talk to him.
34:34I'm no promises.
34:34Wait, wait, no, right, right.
34:35No, of course, no promises.
34:36Let's go talk to him.
34:37I love this.
34:37Yes, we're talking to him.
34:38By the way,
34:40it was a great opening argument.
34:41Really?
34:42Yeah.
34:42What was the best part?
34:44I'm not cookies.
34:45Oh.
34:48Cookies.
34:50Of course.
35:02I am not your lawyer.
35:04I know that.
35:05Then why the hell
35:06am I getting
35:07your grand jury subpoena?
35:09Jocelyn,
35:09what am I supposed to do?
35:11Tell the truth.
35:13You didn't know
35:14what the kid was doing.
35:16I might have known
35:17what the kid was doing.
35:18You idiot.
35:19Baby,
35:20was that Amazon?
35:22I needed that LED mask
35:24like yesterday.
35:25Honey,
35:26they don't make
35:27LEDs strong enough.
35:29Lord,
35:29give me strength.
35:30Tommy,
35:31what is this bitch
35:32doing in my house?
35:33She's my lawyer.
35:34I'm not actually.
35:36Great.
35:37Then go.
35:37Gladly.
35:38Wait, Jocelyn,
35:38hold on, hold on,
35:39please.
35:39Hang on, honey.
35:40She's the best lawyer
35:41I know.
35:43We need her.
35:44You better believe
35:45we're talking to
35:45Dr. Cathy about this.
35:52Jocelyn,
35:53you gotta help me out here.
35:54You can't afford me.
35:55Come on.
35:56My retainer
35:57is 50 grand.
35:59Jocelyn,
36:00listen,
36:01I'm boxed in.
36:03If I tell the truth
36:04to the grand jury,
36:05they're gonna kill me.
36:06They don't kill you
36:06for this.
36:07They put you in prison.
36:09That's not what I meant.
36:12What are you into?
36:13I'll tell you everything
36:14once we have
36:15attorney-client privilege.
36:18Please, Julep.
36:20You gotta be kidding me.
36:22You're broke
36:23and she got one of these?
36:25Do you know
36:26what this costs?
36:28Don't remind me.
36:29I still owe a fortune
36:30on that thing.
36:36Hey, hey!
36:38What are you doing?
36:40taking my retainer.
36:42Come by in the morning.
36:44Lynette's gonna lose her shit.
36:48Tell it to Dr. Cathy.
36:56Holy shit, it worked.
36:58Victor?
36:59Hey, are you?
37:00Are you okay?
37:00What happened to you?
37:02Tried to send you a letter.
37:03They did not like that.
37:04Wait, they put their hands on you?
37:05Get a picture of him.
37:07I knew you were my guy.
37:09We've only got a day left
37:10to file an appeal.
37:13Well, now, Victor,
37:14I'm gonna ask you something.
37:15Are you telling us
37:16you're innocent?
37:17No.
37:18I definitely hacked
37:19the school network
37:20to rickroll
37:20all the screens.
37:23I'm saying they tricked me.
37:25Yeah, who did?
37:25How?
37:26Judge gives me
37:27some slimy lawyer
37:28who smelled like
37:28an air freshener.
37:29Louis V. Palermo.
37:30Yeah, and Judge tells me
37:32if I say I did it
37:32and sorry and all that,
37:33then I'll get a warning.
37:35So, I did.
37:36Then all of a sudden,
37:36Judge crashes out
37:37yelling cyber-terrorist.
37:38Gives me three years.
37:39And I'm in, like,
37:40literal shackles, bro.
37:41Hold on.
37:41What did Palermo say?
37:45All right, you can go now.
37:47Hey, are these the guys
37:48who touched you?
37:49You can't instruct
37:50his right to counsel.
37:51Sofratis is on
37:52behavior status.
37:53He gets no behavior status.
37:54Hey, take it easy.
37:55Hey, he's a kid.
37:56Take it easy on him.
37:57Victor, I'm going to file today.
37:58Hey, you, you want to say
37:59anything about those
38:00bruises on him?
38:02Who the hell
38:02do you think you are?
38:09I'm his lawyer.
38:16All right, thank you.
38:18Morning.
38:18Yeah, I understand.
38:19I'll call you back, okay?
38:22We got boned.
38:23That was fast.
38:24Who got boned?
38:26The, uh, the Victor
38:27Schifradis appeal
38:28got dismissed.
38:30Technicality.
38:31You filed an appeal?
38:32You're not an appellate
38:33attorney.
38:34Well, deadline was today,
38:35so I had to file.
38:36Okay, at the risk of
38:37sounding like I approve
38:38any of this,
38:39why was it dismissed?
38:42We didn't get a signature
38:43from the guardian.
38:45Well, that's a hell
38:45of a technicality.
38:46The stepfather's a real
38:47charmer.
38:48You can't file on behalf
38:49of a minor without a legal
38:50guardian signing on.
38:52I thought it might slip by.
38:53Oh, come on.
38:53You know better than that.
38:54And not for nothing,
38:55but who did you think
38:55was going to pay
38:56for this appeal?
38:57Who's paying for
38:57your ex-husband's
38:58criminal case?
38:59She got a handbag.
38:59Yeah, a very expensive
39:01handbag.
39:02You're kidding, right?
39:03It's worth more
39:03than your car.
39:04You know what?
39:04All right, guys, guys,
39:05can we please just get
39:06back to the whole
39:07guardian thing?
39:07There's got to be
39:08your way around that,
39:09right?
39:09There isn't.
39:10Sorry.
39:14Oh, good.
39:16Great.
39:17I don't know how we went
39:18from a whale to two fishes
39:19in three months,
39:20but here we are.
39:25God damn, you look good.
39:26It can't be all natural.
39:28No way.
39:28Face is mine.
39:29Tits are real.
39:30Ass is as tight as a snare drum.
39:32And you're not getting near
39:33any of it.
39:34Just making conversation.
39:36I just don't get it, okay?
39:38I mean, this guy's married
39:39to Victor's mom for, what,
39:40like three years,
39:41and all of a sudden,
39:42he just gets to decide
39:43this kid's life?
39:43That's crazy.
39:44It's the law.
39:45He's the legal guardian.
39:48It was just one game.
39:49I know it was stupid,
39:51but I really believe
39:52in this kid,
39:52and I don't want to see...
39:57I can't believe I'm
39:58about to help with this,
39:59but there might be a way.
40:01What is it?
40:02A Section 1983 action.
40:05A civil suit?
40:06To get Victor out?
40:07Followed by a petition
40:08for habeas corpus.
40:09Well, Section 1983
40:10is stop abusing me.
40:12That's how we get paid.
40:14Habeas is get me out of here.
40:16Yeah, but don't we still
40:16have the problem
40:17with the guardian?
40:17No, because in a civil case,
40:20you can get a guardian
40:20at line.
40:21Court appointee guardian
40:22for the purposes of the case.
40:23But only if the minor
40:25doesn't have a guardian, right?
40:26Wrong.
40:27Also, if the current guardian
40:28isn't protecting
40:29the minor's interests...
40:30Definitely not.
40:30Court allows the attorney
40:32to submit a guardian
40:33ad litem for approval.
40:35Well, who are we
40:36going to get for that?
40:53What are you smiling about?
41:00No, we're not accepting
41:02the tolling agreement.
41:03If they want to extend
41:03the statute, they can file.
41:05Understood.
41:06Thank you, Ms. Vaughn.
41:07The kid's name is
41:08Victor Sofratis, 12 years old,
41:10one of Judge Halloran's cases.
41:12They filed a Section 1983
41:13claim in a habeas petition.
41:16Who's the attorney?
41:17Rudy Baylor.
41:20He's a kid who won
41:20in the Great Benefit case.
41:21I know who he is.
41:34Hello?
41:35It's Amanda Vaughn.
41:36I put in a call to Leo Drummond.
41:40What did he say?
41:41That you're an opportunist.
41:43Oh.
41:45But that I'd be hard-pressed
41:46to find a more tenacious
41:47attorney.
41:49My office will call you
41:50to set a meeting.
41:53Wow, um...
41:54Hello?
41:55Hello?
42:05Hello?
42:11Hello?
42:18Hello?
42:24Hello?
