David Bowie, you were hired
by the studio to stop a whistleblower
from coming forward.
I want Samantha Railsback
at a press conference saying that she believes in me.
He wants to use my reputation to whitewash his,
and I'm not doing it.
What is this?
The original arrest report on Tina.
You swore you wouldn't do that.
If I don't have word that you're gonna testify,
I will arrest your daughter.
Jimmy Patriale, you're under arrest
for the murder of Billy Esposito.
I need someone to represent a murderer
that I'm trying to put into WITSEC.
My client is risking his life to take the stand,
and this offer is completely unacceptable.
I can take this deal off the table,
let him walk out the building,
and he's dead in ten minutes.
You did something.
Pellegrini has proof.
That is what he used to get you to offer me a job.
He hung you out to dry to make me look dirty.
You get your father to put the nail in Pellegrini's coffin.
- If not? - You go after Pellegrini
with what you have, and when it's over,
you hand in your resignation.
I wanted to formally nominate you
as our new head of criminal defense.
I need to think about it.
Ted, if you're here about your offer,
I've given it some thought,
and the world doesn't need another
criminal defense attorney to the rich.
My answer is no.
I can't head up your criminal division.
I have coffee.
Well, if there's coffee...
Is this about the pro bono thing?
'Cause I told you we'd figure something out.
Ted.
You will have an entire team reporting to you.
You'd be able to do more good than you're doing even now.
I am sorry, but my answer is no.
I hear you.
But since Lester's acquittal,
we are being flooded with résumés
for a division that we do not currently have.
What do you say you help me staff up?
I will appreciate it, and that way,
when you need something from one of these people,
they'll owe you.
You sure know how to sell a girl, don't you?
I know how to sell anyone...
not that you're just anyone.
Okay, I'll go through your résumés.
But when I'm done,
they're not the ones who are going to owe me.
Erica? Henderson?
You couldn't possibly be talking about me.
- Hey, Mom. - Hi, baby.
I'm sorry to call you in the middle of work.
It's fine. Is everything okay?
Arthur passed away this morning.
I saw the ambulance next door,
and I went over to see what was happening.
Gladys told me.
I thought he'd make it till this weekend.
I...
I thought I had time to say goodbye.
He was a good man.
And he loved you very much.
I remember when I was little...
I would sneak over there
and steal their lemons from their tree.
I was always afraid he'd catch me.
But the day he caught me,
instead of getting in trouble, he...
he helped me set up a lemonade stand.
He stayed with me all day.
Your father and I are going over there tonight.
I know you're busy.
- Mom, I'll be there. - Okay.
Mom, I'll have to call you back.
This is Erica.
How long is he in town for?
No, tonight... tonight's perfect.
I'll be there.
Mm-hmm.
This is Leah.
Leah, this is Dr. Robinson.
Oh, is Katniss awake? Can I talk to her?
Even if she is groggy, she'll appreciate hearing my voice.
I'm afraid that won't be possible.
You see, your cat was older, and...
What?
What do you...
We put her under for the test.
She never woke up.
I'm sorry. There was nothing we could do.
Leah, I just got a call that apparently Adam Driver's
been feeling a little ignored by us.
He's let it be known he's on the market.
But he's in town tonight, so we're gonna take him to dinner
and show him he'd be a fool to go anywhere else.
Erica, I'm sorry. I can't do dinner tonight.
Why not?
I just can't. I have plans.
Then change your plans.
See you at 7:00.
No. I can't.
What did you just say?
Leah, you told me
you wanted to rise up at this firm.
I am offering you a literal seat at the table.
What the hell is wrong with you?
I just need some personal time.
What you need to do
is get your goddamn priorities straight.
You know how many times Ted called me
and I had to drop everything?
You don't get personal time when you're an associate.
This sends a message
that you don't give a rat's ass about your career.
What's going on?
Where's your partner? - Samantha's not coming.
I thought I made it pretty clear I need respectability.
You don't need respectability... you want it.
What you need is your freedom.
I told you I did not set fire to that woman's car.
Never even talked to her.
She's saying you intimidated her
a half hour before her car blew up.
And I have three people who are willing to testify
I wasn't even in the area.
Are their names Larry, Moe, and Curly?
Because that's what they're gonna sound like on the stand.
- Okay, what the hell are you... - I found video of you parking
around the corner from where she was eating lunch
an hour before that car blew up.
If I could find it, the prosecution can, too.
You still think a monkey can handle this case, go find one,
but you're not getting Samantha Railsback.
Fine.
You're my lawyer.
Finally, a smart word out of your mouth.
Let's keep the intelligence going.
What happened when you went to see Anne Jones?
I told her that if she didn't stop blowing whistles
that her drug problem would come out
and no one will ever hire her again.
So you did go to intimidate her.
You got me. I did.
But, look, now that that's out,
you can use that to get my case tossed.
Because no one will believe the testimony of a junkie
if she's their only witness.
Bingo bango.
You have proof she's an addict?
In my line of work, you don't need proof.
In my line of work, you do.
Ted, it's late.
Is something bothering you?
I have got a trial
starting tomorrow,
and truth be told,
I am a little nervous about this one.
But you always put the bad guys away.
I'm worried that, uh, this bad guy...
somehow is gonna find a way to cheat to win.
Is that why you've been having me sleep here?
You're afraid of the bad guy?
Eddie, I've been having you sleep here because
I miss Samantha.
I only remember you being afraid once.
You were scared you... you weren't go...
good enough to win your first football game.
But I did win, didn't I?
You alwa... you always do.
Teddy Black...
man of the hour.
John Pellegrini...
man about to go to prison.
Funny guy, real comedian.
I knew a comedian once. Thought he was funny.
Then he died.
You son of a bitch.
Nobody...
humiliates me like this and gets away with it.
You made it personal... big mistake.
You're the one who made it personal.
Is this about your daddy?
I heard that word got out about what he did.
I also hear it's gonna cost you your job.
You heard wrong.
When I put you away,
it's gonna be Ted Black Day all over New York.
They might even build me a monument.
Too bad you're not gonna be able to see it from Attica.
Too bad that you are gonna be in the ground,
'cause the next time
that I read your name in a newspaper,
it's gonna be an obituary.
Mr. Patriale, I'd like to begin
by acknowledging the risk you're taking
by being here today.
If you mean me sitting here puts a target on my head,
it does. - Why is that?
I was one of John Pellegrini's go-to hit men.
I know what he does to people who get in his way.
So the defendant ordered you to murder people?
- Yeah, that's right. - How many exactly?
15.
But the ones he told me to kill in person...
Leone, Bava, Cappo, Evans,
and Billy Esposito...
that makes five. - Five.
And how did Mr. Pellegrini order you
to carry out these murders?
Did he just say, hey, Jimmy,
go whack these guys?
He always said the same thing...
"That guy should take a vacation."
But you can check.
Not a one of them ever made it to Acapulco.
What was his preferred method of murder?
He likes to have people blown up.
You don't say.
Marco Leone, explosion,
Nick Bava, car bomb,
Michael Cappo, explosion...
- Is there a question here? - Yes, there is.
Billy Esposito was the last person that you killed.
Why did Mr. Pellegrini want you to kill him?
'Cause Billy was gonna do what I'm doing right now...
testify.
Thank you, Jimmy.
Boy, that's harsh testimony, no doubt,
but, uh, forgive me.
Where were you when my client gave you these orders?
- In his office. - Can you describe it?
Nice place overlooking the river...
comfortable furniture,
uh, pictures of Mr. Pellegrini's kids.
Oh, you have a good memory.
When exactly did you murder Sebastian Evans?
See, now, my memory for dates ain't so good.
He was murdered March 5, 2008.
When exactly did my client
supposedly order you to perform the Evans murder?
Just said, I'm not so good with...
Dates, I know.
Well, how about I make it a multiple choice?
Was it a month before you killed him, a week?
A day? - Never more than two days.
That was made clear.
Well, then how could it be that my client ordered
the execution of Sebastian Evans, Leone,
or anyone else when he was out of the country
for at least a week prior to every one of those murders?
Objection... proof.
I have plane tickets, hotel receipts,
passport stamps, and pictures proving he was abroad.
And I'd like an answer to my question.
Okay, he wasn't actually in the room,
but it was made clear that the orders were coming from him.
It was just made clear to the jury that you're lying.
Ted, do you have a second?
What can I help you with?
Um...
As you know, I dedicate myself
to this firm and to our clients.
I always have, and I always will.
If this is about your bonus,
I promise you, your contributions have not gone...
It's not about that.
Adam Driver needs some love.
And I was wondering
if you would take dinner with him tonight?
If you really need me to, I can.
It's not going to be a short dinner, and I would rather not.
I understand.
Good, you're here. Marvin wants to see you.
- Who the hell is Marvin? - Our new HR guy.
What happened to Karen?
There were a series of HR complaints filed against her.
Yes, I see the irony.
And, no, she was not the one to let herself go.
Well, whatever I did, it was one time.
It'll never happen again.
It was many times. You will do it again.
But Marvin would actually like to see Erica.
Me? What could he possibly want to see me about?
I didn't ask. I just said I would deliver the message.
Whatever it was, you did it once.
You're very sorry. It'll never happen again.
Stuart, what can I do for you?
I have a client being charged with racketeering
and attempted murder of a whistleblower.
You know a lot of people at the studio.
I need an introduction. - What's in it for me?
Because when I asked for your help,
you made me play Dungeons & Dragons for ten hours,
and I can't unsee what I've seen.
How about I destroy the pictures from that night?
- There are pictures? - Not anymore.
Well, you're going to have to do better than that.
Because we're talking about David Bowie here.
That guy is no joke. - Okay, well, how about this?
You do this for me, our criminal defense business
goes through the roof, as does your bonus.
But since now you're extorting me,
I'm going to need more than just an introduction.
I was told you want to see me?
Yes, I'm Marvin, new head of human resources.
Care to have a seat?
No, actually, I'm pretty busy.
So why don't you just tell me what this is about?
Well, I wanted to talk to you
about the conversation you had with Leah Power this morning.
- What about it? - The tone you used was, um...
Completely called for?
I was going to say inappropriate.
Not to mention you told her
that associates don't get personal time,
which is a clear violation of firm policy.
Hold on a second.
Did Leah come and tell you all of this?
She didn't tell me anything.
So why the hell am I here?
Well, I overheard your conversation.
So you were spying on me?
No, I was walking by.
Your voice was elevated,
and I felt it warranted a conversation
between you and me and then a follow-up
between you and Leah.
Let me get this straight.
You've been here ten minutes,
and you want to tell me that the same speech I received
100 times as an associate is suddenly offensive
and the person I gave it to didn't even file a complaint?
Frankly, your reaction to this just confirms
that I was maybe right to come to you
and encourage you to talk to Leah.
How about instead of that, I'm going to go to dinner,
and I'm going to save this firm a huge client,
and you can stay in your goddamn lane.
Is that okay with you, Marvin?
I asked you to hire five people.
You've got 1,000 résumés here.
If I'm gonna hire people,
I'm gonna hire the right people.
You were the kid in school who always asked
for more homework, weren't you?
I'm up here busting my ass doing you a favor,
and all you can do is make jokes?
Kind of makes me sound like a...
Whatever word you're searching for, double it.
Handsome handsome.
Tell you what... why don't I...
order us some dinner...
and I'll help you go through these?
That's more like it. Order burgers.
And if you don't get too many fries,
might as well not get anything at all.
Mm.
You just blew up my whole damn case.
Hey, I'm sorry.
Want to explain how you could've left out
the tiny little detail that Pellegrini
was out of the country when those hits were ordered?
Yeah, I can explain.
I was dead two minutes after you picked me up
in front of him, so I told you what you wanted to hear
so I could get myself a deal! - Well, that deal is done.
You just perjured yourself.
That wasn't part of the bargain.
You can't do that to me. I had no choice.
You could have chosen not to be a lying sack...
Kevin, Kevin, save your breath.
I want to kill him, too,
but I think Pellegrini's gonna take care of that for us.
Listen to me!
I lied about the other ones, but I was in the room
when he ordered the hit on Billy.
Sure you were.
Only problem is, the jury thinks you're full of crap,
and so do I.
You better be here to clean out your office,
because I heard what happened in court.
John, everything that Jimmy told us
corroborated what Billy said.
All right, we couldn't have known.
You couldn't have known that the lying murderer
was lying to you?
- This case isn't over yet. - Might as well be.
You're gonna be the disgraced son of a convict,
and I'm going to be the moron who gave you a chance.
John, that's not fair.
I put myself on the line for your partner, Kevin.
And if you two can't figure a way out of this,
my career is over, too.
Look, maybe we lost the murders,
but there's got to be a way
to shore up the racketeering charges.
We're in the middle of trial.
I have been trying to get him on conspiracy to commit murder.
We don't have him on racketeering,
and I don't have the time to go on a treasure hunt.
We wouldn't be looking in the dark.
Billy left us a map and you know it.
That is a map that we could not find,
and I don't even know if it exists.
If it does, we both know who has it.
It's time we go talk to him.
Not we, me.
Here's what you're gonna do.
Get the hell off my step.
I know I'm the last person in the world
that you want to see.
You son of a bitch, you used me against my dad.
You swore you'd protect him, and now he's dead.
Tina, if I could bring him back, I would.
The only thing that I can do is make sure
that the man who killed him never sees the light of day.
But to do that, I need your help.
Billy mentioned a list of financial accounts,
and we're thinking that maybe he kept them
in a safe-deposit box or a storage facility.
I don't know nothing about no list.
And even if I did,
I'd burn it before I'd ever give it to you.
Tina...
You look sad. What's wrong?
I'm worried that I might not win my case after all.
Did the bad guy cheat?
No, I made a mistake.
And...
now I'm afraid that it might be too late
to go back and fix it.
Ted, do you know why I like to wear your clothes?
- No. - When we were kids,
other kids wanted to be Superman.
I didn't want to be him. I wanted to be you.
Buddy, I'm gonna talk to Kevin for a second.
You were right, and as soon as you left,
she led me right to it.
There has to be 30 companies here.
I had my guys run down each one.
Turns out we know one of their lawyers pretty well.
And I'll give you a hint.
He's a cocky son of a bitch and a hell of a shortstop.
Harvey Specter.
I should have known.
Ted, did you hear me?
Hmm?
Oh, yeah, sorry, I...
Looking at this résumé, this guy used to work
as a prosecutor in the Southern District.
Just got me thinking about my time there.
It's funny... I remember when I got here, overhearing Stuart
telling someone not to ask you about New York.
You do not like talking about it.
I do not.
So tell me about your time in New York.
From the minute that I got to law school,
I knew that I wanted to be a prosecutor.
And the truth is, I loved every second of it.
Then why don't you like talking about it?
Because it didn't end well.
And I'm not quite ready to tell you why.
I will tell you that the Lester case
reminded me that I used to take the law part of being a lawyer
way more seriously.
And if you were to reconsider this position,
I would really love to work on a case or two with you.
Is that why you bought me dinner... ask me that again?
You asked about New York.
That's what came out.
Are you reconsidering?
Maybe.
But since you bring up Lester...
What?
Pass the fries.
So we option it for Nicole,
and right away the money starts rolling in.
Rick. Since when do you eat vegan?
Gene Edwards, Stuart Lane.
He's the one I said would be meeting us after dinner.
Aren't you a producer on that sci-fi movie...
the one where the guy died on set?
That's not what I thought you wanted to talk about,
but, yes, we, uh...
we did have a tragic incident.
Sorry. I'm a defense attorney.
I'm one of the few people in this town more interested
in the real crimes than the fictional ones.
Wasn't a crime. It was an accident.
But there was a whistleblower, right?
Who said there were safety issues before the guy died?
I can't talk about this while there's ongoing litigation.
No one's asking you to talk, Gene.
What I'm asking for is corroboration.
You see, I represent David Bowie,
and I have it on good authority,
this whistleblower has a drug problem.
Stuart, you can't bully my friend here
into giving you privileged information.
I can do whatever the hell I want.
And if he's such a good friend,
you should tell him I could either bully him on the stand,
or he can give me what I need right now.
Sorry, Gene, he's right.
Fine.
I saw the health care bills.
She spent six months in rehab over the past two years.
That's all I'm gonna say.
As for you and I, we're never doing business again.
Rosalyn, I had a late night, so whatever this is...
Did you lose it on Marvin yesterday?
He ratted me out, didn't he?
That meddling piece... - He didn't rat anyone out.
I asked him how it went with you.
He said fine.
I could tell that he was covering, so I pressed him.
Well, you got me, okay?
I lost it on him because he stuck his nose
into my business. - That's his job.
Erica, like it or not,
we work in a business with people who think
that they can get away with anything.
And Marvin knows what the hell he's doing.
And so do I, and I am not one of those people, Rosalyn,
I'm not saying you are.
He is trying to force me into a conversation with Leah,
and she didn't even go to him.
I don't give a damn if you go and talk to Leah.
What I care about is you treating
the head of human resources
with the respect that he deserves.
Hey, did what Gene give you check out?
It did, and I just wanted to say I really appreciated
you doing that.
I know it cost you the relationship.
Well, to tell you the truth,
I never liked that douche.
I haven't had that much fun
since we worked together with Rico.
Ah, you mean when we played Dungeons & Dragons.
No, Stuart, I did not mean that.
Oh. Anyway, I got a meeting with the ADA later,
and thanks to you, he's got some charges to drop.
Hey, Friday nights, you're always welcome.
Cape is optional, but you do need to wear the hat.
That's still a pass.
Erica, what can I do for you?
Marvin, when we talked yesterday,
I wasn't ready to hear what you had to say,
so I kind of bit your head off.
Like an angry praying mantis.
That's a weird way to put it,
but, yes, I did.
I'm ready to hear you now.
Okay, well, when we last spoke,
I gathered that Leah skipping your client dinner
didn't just upset you on a professional level.
It... it hurt you on a personal level.
If you want to know the truth, yes, it did.
Care to tell me why?
It's just...
a few months ago, I gave Leah a second chance.
And now when I needed her, she just...
- Left you high and dry. - Yes.
And then when you called her on it,
the only thing that happened was I came down on you.
Maybe Rosalyn was right about you.
Would it help you to know
why it was that Leah couldn't make that dinner?
Depends.
Turns out they had to put her cat down.
What? Why didn't she just tell me that?
Maybe the tone you used
when she told you she couldn't make the dinner
might have something to do with it.
Amanda, what are you doing here?
I've got a question.
You're the only one who can answer.
I must be, because you never liked me.
Be that as it may, in your opinion,
is Ted an ethical man?
Well, then I have to ask you, what prompted this question?
He pulled some underhanded stuff
with the judge in the Lester Thompson trial.
- Unethical stuff or immoral? - What's the difference?
To him, there's a huge difference.
Whatever rule he broke in the courtroom,
he wouldn't have done so
if he didn't think Lester was innocent.
- Sounds like you respect him. - I do.
So why did you leave?
Me respecting Ted wasn't the problem.
But he does have a problem with the fact
I believe everyone deserves someone to advocate for them.
Even when it's hard.
It's only hard when they're guilty.
But I do it anyway, and that's something he never understood.
I heard you hit a speed bump on the Pellegrini case.
I didn't hit a speed bump... I drove off a cliff.
My witness lied on the stand, got caught.
We're gonna lose the murder charges.
Well, you didn't call me for a box of tissues,
so let's get to it.
Only way to get him is the RICO charges,
but the clock is ticking. - Give it to me.
I got a list of 30 companies.
I don't have time to subpoena them all.
Your firm represents one of them.
Let me get this straight.
You want me to give you our client's financial records?
Harvey, I don't have time to do this the right way.
Then make the time.
I'm not giving you privileged information.
Don't give it to me directly.
Get the file. Leave it somewhere.
Someone will pick it up, and nobody's ever gonna know.
I'll know. I'm not doing it.
This is the kind of thing
that made me leave the DA's office in the first place.
You left because you loved the money and the power
and the prestige.
You don't know the first damn thing about what drives me.
I know that if you came to me with this, I'd do it for you.
Well, thank God I'm not you.
Harvey, he's killed more people
than everyone that you've ever put away combined.
You have the chance to help,
and you're just gonna walk away?
Ted, you want to figure out how to get him?
Stop crying, suit up, and get the job done.
Say what you want, but I know what drives you
because we are cut from the same cloth.
It's winning.
And if he walks...
that's on you.
Stuart, what are you doing in New York?
I got a call from my client.
You don't have a client anymore.
As far as Jimmy's concerned, I do,
and he's desperate to get his deal reinstated.
Then maybe he shouldn't have blown the entire thing up.
That guy just screwed my entire case.
I'm gonna be lucky to get this monster
on racketeering charges,
and the odds of that just plummeted.
- Jimmy can change all that. - In what universe?
He tried to tell you.
He lied about the other murders, but Pellegrini
told Jimmy face-to-face to kill Billy Esposito.
Unless he recorded that conversation,
it doesn't matter.
Nobody on that jury is going to believe another word
that comes out of his mouth. - Then make them believe it.
He lied! Right to their faces!
You once told me the way to make a witness believable
was by emotionally connecting to the jury.
- How am I supposed to do that? - I don't know.
But you've lost Samantha over this case.
You lost that impersonator. You lost Billy Esposito.
If you can't do something with all that, no one can.
Isaac.
Stuart.
Last time I saw you, your name was on a different building.
I like to keep things interesting.
Want to tell me how it happened?
It's gonna have to wait
for the next stupid dinner you drag me to.
No, this is about David Bowie.
Oh, he landed you.
Hmm. Good for him.
And now you're gonna tell me
it's in my best interest to settle.
I'm gonna tell you to drop the whole damn thing,
because that so-called whistleblower-victim-witness
you've got... she's a drug addict.
You got proof of that?
I haven't subpoenaed the records,
but here's what I'm gonna find when I do...
six months in rehab over the last two years.
- She's clean now. - I'm gonna convince your jury
she's a desperate cokehead who'd do anything for money,
including blowing up her own car.
Okay, but you should know,
when I'm done with your client, he better be prepared
to spend the rest of his life behind bars
because there's a piece of the puzzle you don't know.
All right.
What the hell is so important
that I have to come all the way down here to hear it?
What's important is you forgot to mention
that before you threatened Anne Jones,
you did the exact same thing to someone else.
I don't know what the hell you're talking about.
Get the hell out of my office
and find someone else to represent you.
What?
I went to the DA's office to get this case thrown out,
and I found out they have another victim.
Who? What victim?
I don't know their name because they redacted it,
but the DA was very happy to inform me that whoever it is,
they have no skeletons in their closet,
and they documented the conversation that night.
That proves nothing
about what I did or didn't do to Anne Jones.
It gives weight to her testimony
because you approached them both the same way.
It also establishes a pattern which triples your sentence
if they find you guilty.
And not only that, the DA is betting
that when this witness takes the stand,
you're gonna have an avalanche of people come out
to tell the world who you really are.
So either get the hell out of my office
or tell me what's going on.
Okay.
Okay, yes, I have threatened multiple people in my day.
How many?
Over the years, I don't know... 40, 50.
I don't keep a diary.
So there's no way of knowing which one this is.
If I knew, I would sure as hell tell you who this guy is.
All right, I can work with this,
but I need to know everything there is to know,
because Isaac Adani is a beast at trial
and I will not be blindsided in that courtroom.
Okay.
Yes, I set Anne Jones's engine on fire.
It was just to scare her.
She wasn't anywhere near the car.
Look, I'm not saying I'm a saint,
but I was not trying to kill her.
That is a line I wouldn't even come close to crossing.
What about the fact you have a reputation for brutality?
Look...
I need people to think
that I am willing to do certain things
so that I don't have to.
So we good?
Good's a strong word,
but I am still your attorney.
You working late tonight?
I saw your note about sending Adam Driver
a thanks-for-staying gift basket.
And I also had a few things to catch up on, so...
And you're in no hurry to get home to an empty apartment.
Marvin told you about Katniss?
He did.
Why didn't you just tell me?
I thought you wouldn't understand.
I thought you'd say it was just a cat.
Leah, I'm not heartless.
And it's not just a cat.
It's something you cared about, and you wanted to say goodbye.
I'd understand missing dinner for that.
I wish I could have said goodbye.
- What do you mean? - That's why I wasn't myself.
When you told me about Adam Driver,
the vet had just called
and told me they'd put Katniss down.
Are you saying...
are you saying that your cat had already passed
when I asked you about dinner?
So you could have come with me? - No, I couldn't.
Why not?
I would have been a mess after what happened.
A person can't just turn their feelings off, Erica.
No, you don't turn them off.
You put them on hold, and you get the job done.
That's easy for you to say, Erica.
Leah, cats die. People die.
What if I lost someone that I cared about yesterday?
What if I'm grieving? What if I'm hurting?
And when I called, none of you answered?
Because that is what happened.
I didn't get just to take the night off.
That is why we still have a client
to send a goddamn basket to.
Erica?
What are you doing here?
Just had a really rough day.
What happened?
Somebody at work's cat died.
Oh, come on, now, you don't even like cats.
I know
Oh, baby, is this about Arthur?
I just didn't get a chance to say goodbye to him.
- I know, honey. - And I left you hanging.
I'm so sorry.
I know.
Come here. Come here.
It's okay.
Oh.
Jimmy, let's get right to it.
What happened yesterday?
What can I say?
I lied to you and to the jury.
Why?
I thought if I only gave you one murder, you'd pull my deal.
And if that happened,
I was sure John Pellegrini would have me killed.
You said if you only gave me one murder.
Does that mean that there was a time
the defendant ordered you to kill someone in person?
Yeah. Billy Esposito.
Jimmy, why should the jury believe
that you're telling the truth now?
'Cause Billy was my best friend,
and there was no way I was gonna kill him
without hearing it direct.
I remember the day they tried to tell me.
They sent Vinnie Santoro.
I told him, I'm not hitting Billy on his say-so.
He says if I don't, they'll kill me.
So I look him right in the face,
and I say, if you don't take me to Pellegrini's,
someone's gonna die right here, and it's not gonna be me.
What did he do next?
He drove me to Pellegrini's office.
The same office that you described?
Yeah.
But I wasn't there five times, only once...
September 17, 2010.
We move to admit these two pictures
dated September 17, 2010,
of Jimmy outside the defendant's office
and of the defendant outside the same office,
not in some faraway place having his passport stamped.
Objection... I've never seen those pictures.
Rebuttal to yesterday's testimony, Your Honor.
I just got them myself.
The pictures are admitted.
Jimmy, what did Mr. Pellegrini say to you
in his office?
He said Billy needed to take a vacation...
and I knew if he was having me kill Billy,
he'd have somebody kill me if I said no.
One more question...
Do you miss him?
When you are ordered to murder your best friend,
you make your love turn to hate,
or you'll never go through with it.
So I can't say if I miss him or not.
But what I can say is,
the man who ordered the hit is sitting right there.
What do you think?
I think the bastard's going down.
I wish we had more.
Either way, we make a good team.
Like Mel Gibson and Danny Glover.
I'm Gibson. - Sure you are.
Harvey, what are you doing here?
Do what you will with this.
I don't want to be a part of it.
It didn't come from me.
- Is this what I think it is? - What did I just say?
What made you change your mind?
The company on your list isn't our client anymore.
They left when their lawyer left,
and I've got no loyalty to either one.
Who's their lawyer?
Daniel Hardman.
Good luck.
These are filings and financial statements
going back years.
Pellegrini is the CEO of this company.
If we can prove there's laundered money here,
we got him on the RICO charges.
We don't need to get him on the RICO charges.
Yes, we do, because we don't know for sure
that we have him on the murder. - Look, we got him, okay?
We don't need help from the damn pretty boy.
What is the matter with you?
Getting this list was your idea.
I don't care.
Is this because you don't like Harvey?
This case is one piece of bad news after another.
Let's just give it to the jury and just call it a day.
- No. - We don't even have a way
to prove this. We need corroboration.
You can't make a lawyer testify against his own client.
Yes, he can, if he doesn't know
who he's testifying against.
What are you doing back here?
I forgot the top of my banker's box.
I certainly didn't come back because you needed me
to give you that idea.
And even if you did like me,
you're no Gibson.
Look, I could be Gibson.
No, you couldn't.
I could be Gibson.
Hey.
Is that my new criminal division?
Nope.
It's mine.
You changed your mind.
It depends on your answer to two questions.
Yes, and maybe.
Who am I kidding? Yes, yes, 1,000 times, yes.
- This is not a joke. - I'm sorry. What is it?
I need to know if you're gonna be okay
with me defending guilty people,
because that is what the job is.
- Where's this coming from? - I talked to Stuart.
I don't want what happened between you two
to happen to me.
- You are not Stuart. - I don't care.
I want to hear you say
you're okay with me defending guilty people.
I am.
May I ask what changed your mind?
Something you said about taking the law seriously,
'cause I have always taken the law seriously.
But I realize that it's time for me to start playing
in the big leagues.
In that case...
welcome to the team.
You forgot about question number two.
What are we doing here? - Oh.
'Cause I can't come in and run this division
and then fall into some kind of...
relationship with the Name Partner.
It's got to be one or the other.
What?
Not to nitpick,
but that probably should have been question number one.
Not to nitpick...
but that's not an answer.
I didn't know that you felt that way.
Maybe I didn't know that I felt that way.
Can I have a...
minute or two to think it over?
- Don't take too long. - I won't.
I'm sorry. I-I have to go.
Stuart, you okay?
I'm not sure.
What's going on?
I found out there was a second whistleblower
Bowie had threatened.
I confronted him on it.
He said he had no idea who that person was.
You believe him?
I did.
Now I think that whistleblower might be dead.
- Batman? - Batman.
Who said you could drink my whiskey?
This isn't for me. It's for you.
Why do I need a drink, Harvey?
Because Pellegrini's getting out.
He wouldn't be getting anything
if you hadn't done what you did.
Well, I did it. I'm not gonna apologize for it.
So you want to come at me again,
or you want to help me put him back in?
Can it be both?
It's good to see you.
- Wish I could say the same. - I didn't mean it.
Don't say it. - Yes, you did.
You gonna make yourself one of these?
I got a better idea.
Finish that off.
Let's go out and have a good time,
'cause tomorrow we're gonna take a flight to New York
and make sure that son of a bitch
never sees the light of day.
Aaron. Aaron!
