00:00What's that beautiful smile for?
00:11Nothing.
00:13Nothing?
00:14Yeah.
00:17Just really glad that you're here.
00:30What are you doing?
00:37Stop.
00:42I need a doctor.
00:48I don't know who you are.
00:52But you don't know anything about my condition.
00:56I know all about you.
01:00Scarecrow.
01:08I know that you were doing your job.
01:11And you had to defend your client to the best of your ability.
01:15But what I'm having trouble with is the truth.
01:18And the fact that it doesn't seem to matter to anyone.
01:22Willow can get away with everything.
01:24How is that justice?
01:26Unless you just don't believe us.
01:27I can see then how Willow's ringtone for Wiley might not be the smoking gun for you like it is for us.
01:33So is that it?
01:34Do you just not believe us that it was Willow who shot Drew?
01:37Actually, I believe you.
01:42You must have left early this morning.
01:44I had a meeting with IA.
01:50I owned up to everything.
01:52Well, that's good.
01:53Glad to hear it.
01:54I know you're pissed at me.
01:55And I get why I skated right up to the line.
01:59Yeah, you did.
02:00But I didn't cross it.
02:02I need you to believe.
02:04No, I need you to know that I would never destroy evidence.
02:11It's a little early, Nina.
02:13We don't need to chat.
02:14Drew, I'm here for a room.
02:16I'm going to surprise her with a day out.
02:18Hey, Nina.
02:19We're going to go shopping and then maybe take in that new exhibit at the Chuck and then have lunch at the PC Grill.
02:25I want to take her mind off of the trial.
02:27You should have called first.
02:30Drew, I am Willow's mother.
02:33Are you saying that I need an appointment to see my own daughter?
02:37You should have called first because she's not here.
02:53Thank you for coming.
02:54I almost didn't.
02:56The last time I accepted an invitation from you, I was dragged away in handcuffs in front of our children.
03:03So what's in store today?
03:05Are you planning an encore with leg irons this time?
03:07Yes.
03:08The last time.
03:18The last time.
03:19The last time.
03:19The last time.
03:21so any second thoughts do i look like i have second thoughts
03:51maybe you're just being nice right because i'm such a people pleaser
04:01i've been ready to take this next step
04:05and what about you and your regrets
04:19stop it look i need a doctor all right i need my doctor for now i am your doctor
04:30you have polycythemia vera which means we need to lower your red blood cell count
04:37we don't want any thrombotic events god what happened to you liesel
04:42i mean i know we're not exactly friends no we are not but we're not enemies anymore either
04:51you wouldn't hurt me are you certain yes i am certain of that i'm certain that you wouldn't
05:04help these people you're right i wouldn't have moved you here but then he insisted
05:12no he's dead cesar fazan is dead you know better than that he can fool the whole world but not the
05:25two of us we both know that he could survive anything and he has after everything that
05:33that that man did you he tormented you you only hurt the ones you love and
05:40sometimes you hurt for them i have to do whatever needs doing for him but why
05:47i don't understand and i he will never let you go
06:00rita it's good to see you reacclimating to your rightful position thank you how soon before you
06:07return to your former appointment and are back to running the place what dr robinson's situation
06:14who left a power vacuum and you are the natural choice to fill it dr robinson has been suspended
06:20she hasn't been fired not yet but it's only a matter of time you don't know mother i am in a
06:29good mood of course you are now that i'm here that is not what i sure sure i don't want to spoil my
06:39mood by fighting with you and today is your lucky day because i'm not here to fight i'm here
06:44for rocco i looked into your story and unfortunately it checked out
06:54so why didn't you do anything especially when you have the evidence that willow is guilty it's evidence
06:59that i can't submit it's the prosecution's job to prove willow's guilt not mine willow is entitled to
07:07a lawyer who will defend her presumption of innocence just like anybody else and even if willow confessed
07:14i would not be able to say anything not to the police not to the judge not to a jury i don't know
07:21how you do it defend people when you know that they're guilty i have to defend my clients to the
07:26best of my ability whether they're innocent or they're guilty and trust me i much prefer when they're
07:33innocent but as you can see that's not always the case i had to make the strongest argument for willow's
07:41freedom and i would do the same for both of you if and when you choose to go to the police
07:47willow went for a walk she said she needed to get some fresh air i offered to go with her but she
07:52preferred to be alone because she wanted to think did she just need to get away from you i'll be sure to
07:57tell willow you stop by well you do that i am sorry that i missed my daughter but i am glad that
08:04i get a moment alone with you we've got nothing to say to each other nina well i do so you can just
08:09listen i want to thank you drew you've done a great deal for my daughter and i appreciate it
08:18well that's interesting you've never shown any appreciation for anything i've done for willow in
08:28the past like loving her asking her to move in marry i'm talking about the trial you hired alexis
08:36to defend willow and with the right incentive she came through alexis has done her very best yes but if
08:46after all of this we still don't get the verdict that we were hoping for
08:52i would ask that you let me take care of my daughter from now on what does that mean that
08:59you want to bake the cake with the file on it it means we have tried this your way now it's time to do it
09:09my way i love my job and i care about getting my badge back but it's not just about that
09:17okay what else is it about you and me we were partners we are family you gotta know i didn't
09:25tamper with evidence well listen i believe you i still need proof i still have to investigate what
09:30happened i understand that i need you to also understand that that traffic camp footage put willow
09:39in the vicinity of drew's house at the time of the shooting i get that but michael was also in the
09:44vicinity yes he was and i understand you believe in willow's innocence i do
09:50i just need to know how far you would go to protect her just like i need to figure out how far i went
10:01to protect my brother is that why you showed up and just to re-litigate the past because i'm not
10:06interested in doing that with you willow right because that's what the custody hearing is for
10:11actually that's that's what i wanted to talk to you about what about custody
10:25i want us to put aside our personal issues for now and and just focus on wiley and amelia
10:32you want to focus on the kids now michael that is all i've ever wanted
10:38we have some time while the jury's still out okay to do what to discuss what's going to happen
10:46to the kids if you're found guilty we have time to do that yeah you and me together
11:03why do you want to talk about rocco
11:04rocco has joined his school's hockey team i want to buy season tickets so we can attend
11:11they've just posted the schedule i thought we could purchase jerseys with rocco's name on them
11:18presumably to wear at home where no one can see them especially rocco i will also get his two
11:23custom-made giant polyurethane fingers waving them about it's an odd custom but very effective yeah if
11:30you want to embarrass yourself and the person you're waving them about for i don't wish to embarrass
11:35anyone i'm simply looking forward to cheering rocco on in the ring has rocco told you he wants us there
11:41has he asked you to buy the fingers and the jerseys why should he have to we love him and this is how we
11:49can show him that we support him maybe we should show him that by doing the opposite that makes no sense
11:55no one in rocco's family wants me to be there we are his family except we're not exactly so why
12:09make rocco's life more stressful than it has to be listen you're gonna do what you want to do as
12:16for me i think it's best for rocco if i kept my distance
12:25i am not really judging or complaining how you and alexis manage willow's initial defense but if willow
12:33is found guilty i want my lawyers to handle the appeal process i'm gonna do you a huge favor nina
12:42okay fine you need this it would be very noble of you drew to hand over the ring not that
12:52i'm never gonna tell willow that we had this conversation willow will never know that her own
13:00mother was hoping that she would be convicted so that you could swoop in and save the day
13:07well you told us not to go to the police because we can get charged with trespassing and obstruction
13:15that's right and you probably still would be but i feel like you're saying that's the only way for us
13:19to share what we know about willow okay if you had stayed on the scene if you had not taken something
13:24out of the out of the safe if you had gone straight to the police the situation would be different but you
13:30didn't couldn't we have i don't know made some kind of deal maybe like i said if you would come to me
13:36sooner i might have been able to set you up with diane and marco and maybe they could have gone to
13:41ada turner and tried to strike a deal immunity in exchange for evidence but that didn't happen but
13:48the jury hasn't reached a verdict yet so there has to be something we can do should have just stayed on
13:53the scene and then it would have been an open and shut case not necessarily keep in mind that ada
14:00turner thought that her circumstantial evidence was enough to try the case she didn't think she needed an
14:06eyewitness to sway the jury and you think there's still a chance that that could be true i don't
14:11know which is why i'm advising you not to do anything wait for the verdict and then decide what
14:19you're going to do okay but what about michael because if willow's found not guilty will michael be
14:24prosecuted next a lot happened to me in my childhood that they really messed me up i remember i tried to
14:36hide that part of myself i think that i've gotten pretty good at it but i still feel it every day
14:45and i know that you've suffered growing up it's true i i have my ghosts too like there's not much
14:55that we can agree on these days but i know that you don't want our kids to have to carry the same
15:01kind of damage that was inflicted upon us i know that you don't want them to have to carry the things
15:06that we do of course i don't i want them to feel safe and loved i i never want them to feel that
15:15desperate need to make things right or to please at all costs i'm i want them to feel secure
15:24and sure of themselves that's what i want to so what exactly are you asking why am i here
15:31there are programs for incarcerated mothers of young children they're afforded special visiting
15:42hours and granted greater exposure to their kids and i promise that i will make sure that you get to
15:51see and speak to wiley and amelia as much as possible i wish we'd made this arrangement months ago
15:58so what are you proposing we do now well i think that we should tell them about where you're going
16:09together and i want them to know that we both love them and that we want what's best for them
16:16so to be clear what you're saying is you'll let me have access to the kids if i go to prison yes
16:21it's taken too much of a toll on them as it is can we please just be together on this we can
16:32i i just have one question what if i don't go to prison what happens to all this unity if i'm found not
16:42guilty you know i just i keep expecting to hear you grandma like i'm walking through that front door
16:59yeah i wouldn't worry about it too much i mean don't get me wrong when she first left i um
17:05kept everything exactly as it was perfect and pristine just in case i don't know i guess i just
17:13got used to living alone sure about that yeah i mean this place is great and i love the perks and
17:24trust me it's a lot easier not to wake the neighbors than it is to wake her
17:27if she's a cop and a spicer she probably sleeps with one eye open exactly
17:36for what
17:40as embarrassing as it'd be for her to come home right now you miss her don't you yeah
17:51i really do
17:57does rocco want you to keep your distance i wouldn't know i haven't heard from him since
18:06he texted me he got community service after the break-in but that's wonderful yeah it's better than
18:11jail time i meant rocco wanting to share his good news with you i guess
18:16there is no guessing that it is a lovely moment between a child and the woman who who gave him life
18:26what did you text back i said i was happy that he's okay and and nothing that's it not even a thumbs up
18:36emoji lulu is on a war path she doesn't want rocco to have anything to do with me
18:43so now we know what lulu wants but what does rocco want i'm not going to force a relationship onto the
18:53kid you are his birth mother i was his surrogate you are more than that we are more than that
19:04rocco is alive he he exists as he does because of you and me you brought rocco into this world and
19:14that's why he needs to know that he matters to both of us but mostly you because you are his mother
19:20i don't know about that that's fine but i do i am pretty sure that willow will be grateful that i'm
19:30stepping in after you led her to the brink of a life sentence with your crack legal strategy will
19:36will be found innocent because of me drew found innocent isn't a thing she might be found not guilty
19:44in spite of you you coerced alexis to put you on the stand just to stroke your own ego
19:50and instead of defending your wife you attacked michael he deserved it you came off as unhinged
19:58the only good thing that came out of it was everyone could see why so many people want to
20:03shoot you twice in the back you're delusional and my daughter she had to testify why do you think
20:09that is true oh wait she had to clean up your mess because if alexis would have arrested her case
20:15after your sorry performance the jury would have come back with a verdict and my daughter
20:21would be saying goodbye i am the only one willow can count on i'm the one who got alexis in line in
20:27line alexis basically said that willow was guilty to the jury in her closing statement that was a slip of
20:37the tongue well that slip of the tongue through willow's defense in jeopardy and i am not going
20:43to have my daughter spend 20 years of her life in prison because she had the bad taste and the
20:49misfortune of hooking up with you i'm uh going over the case again starting from the night of the shooting
20:59going over all the physical evidence see if there's anything we might have missed anything
21:05i might have missed that would implicate michael as the shooter good i think that's the right thing to
21:12do yeah i mean it could go either way though it means either willow or michael could be our shooter
21:20sounds like reasonable doubt to me it is until it's not maybe for michael but right now only willow is on
21:28trial look if the verdict goes against her promise me you won't stop investigating because the only way
21:35that they can set aside a guilty verdict is if we can prove that michael did it
21:43a lot has to happen before michael will be held responsible for drew's shooting but it could happen
21:49the courts don't like hunting expeditions
21:51the court wants the prosecution's ducks all in a row on the first trial if there's a second trial
21:58and there's a new defendant it's gonna have to be ironclad forget about reasonable doubt it's no doubt
22:04at all so you're saying it won't happen i'm not psychic i don't know whether it will or it won't happen
22:10but if it does happen could we come forward then it could it could get michael off the hook my advice
22:16still stands do nothing until the jury comes back with their decision
22:26just answer this one question are you open to revisiting the custody not even
22:32custody are you open to revisiting the visitation arrangement if i'm found not guilty
22:39or do i have to go to prison if i want to see my kids that's an entirely different discussion and you
22:44know why because i'm married to drew i won't have our kids anywhere near that man
22:53whatever happens
22:56we need to put our children first and we need to put our hurt and anger aside can you do that
23:02it's it's the courthouse hello yes thank you for letting me know
23:19the jury's in they've reached a verdict
23:32i got a call from ia look before a decision is made about detective chase's reinstatement i need
23:39to know exactly how that footage disappeared because as far as i'm concerned chase is still the most likely
23:45suspect okay i think right now all we can do is wait for internal affairs to finish their job
23:57i wish we could tell michael what we know i know but i think alexis is right there's not much we can
24:03do now however there is one thing i can say
24:08mr crinthos i hope i'm not overstepping but i was in the courtroom when the congressman testified
24:19drew has been good to me but that doesn't mean that i agree with anything that he said on the stand
24:25i do not think that you deserved any of that well thanks guy that means a lot
24:38you belong at those games rocco deserves to look up into the stands and see you cheering him on like
24:44the maniac i know you can be i've been a lot of things but a maniac no i could definitely pull that off
24:53even a more restrained you without a phone finger and jersey deserves to be at rocco's games you have
25:00the right to watch rocco doing something he loves you have the right to be proud i want to be there
25:08i want to be a part of his life but i don't want to make his life harder for him you are his mother
25:13it's an inevitable part of the job description not like this it isn't
25:18and rocco already has a mother one who wants me to stay far far away from him you carried him
25:26you gave birth to him two things that lulu was physically and medically incapable of doing
25:34that part is true but you're leaving out a couple of things that really matter to lulu
25:40well whether lulu likes it or not you matter to rocco so you need to make him a priority
25:49rita take my advice don't repeat the mistake i made with you
25:56i know my grandma's out there somewhere doing her duty and saving the world and that's that's great
26:02what it really is
26:06i wish she'd just wrap it up and come home i thought she drove you crazy no she did
26:14especially at first she was always wondering where i was at and what i was doing and who i was with and
26:22she didn't trust me at all well hey okay i know i lied about being expelled after
26:31committing a couple of minor infractions which i have now committed on both coasts
26:37but as someone who spent decades in espionage i think she's seen a lot worse
26:41that is such a low bar and you're you're her granddaughter emma
26:45damn and i would love nothing more than to tell my grandma about my life
26:52mostly i just want to tell her about you
26:54what exactly do you want to tell her no relax uh i'll keep the pg
27:01good i don't want to get on your grandmother's bad side
27:05what she could probably kill me with her thumb no she totally could
27:09you know what she's gonna be back soon okay you think so
27:15she better be i want grandpa sonny's itching and i was over for dinner he wants you to
27:23bring anna do a whole deal with the four of us i love that
27:30all i want to do is call her and tell her to come home
27:32anyways um take it things are going good at sonny's oh yeah yeah things are great it
27:44it's great getting to know sonny's my grandfather and he's super easy to live with
27:49hmm how are your blessings yeah i'm still you know at some point i gotta find a place my own
28:01did he say that or no no he wouldn't it's just i need some place that isn't crashing with you
28:11my grandfather the quarter means great you know what you don't want any thoughts about what you do
28:41how is she she's stabilized the philatomy treatment was successful how has she responded to her other
28:57treatment just as you hoped she was convinced that i was dr obrecht good that means she's ready for the
29:07next phase alexis i just want to thank you for everything you did for willow you went to bat for
29:20her and i know why you do yeah because you know that she couldn't do what she's accused of she just
29:28couldn't hey where's willow have you heard from her no true i haven't i don't understand there's no
29:41way she would turn off her phone not when we're waiting for the verdict well maybe she panicked and ran
29:46off you know nothing about your daughter
29:59my dear britta i was furious that you disappeared and that you let me breathe your death
30:06i haven't forgotten but is it over not entirely some rage and disappointments still lingers
30:20but mostly i am sad why sad anger i understand betrayal even but why i'm sad
30:28because you felt you needed to run away from me and because i missed the chance to be a real mother to
30:37you when it mattered most that's not true you were there for me when i died but you didn't die
30:47but i didn't know that when i closed my eyes for for what i thought was
30:53the last time all that was left was peace
31:01and you i never needed you more than i did at that moment and you were there
31:10that was the least i could have done for you the very least i wasted so much of my life on cesar
31:16neglecting you in the process you learned over and over again that the only person you could trust was
31:23yourself
31:27why would that change when you are facing your own death
31:32i could go back to pcu there's still time to register for spring classes
31:36well i don't want to influence you one way or another but um that would be great
31:40that i wouldn't have a scholarship which means i have to ask grandpa sonny to help out with tuition so
31:47you really don't want to go back to music i'm not ready to make that call not yet at least
31:54that's okay you know tons of people go to college and they don't know what they want to do with their
31:58lives that's the thing i did i knew i thought i did i had no doubt that music was going to be my life but
32:05now and well you're lucky that music was your passion and not everyone has that i know i certainly didn't
32:15really yeah i thought i mean you're such an activist yeah well you can't exactly major in animal rights
32:23but you can in veterinary medicine
32:27what do you want to you want to be a vet that's great what how long i just decided
32:35i mean not like right this second but uh recently took me a long time to figure that out
32:43it was definitely worth the wait it's a total fan you think so yeah it's a really competitive field
32:50well you shy away from competition oh you're right i'm a total wallflower
32:56anyway i um
32:59it felt like time to declare a major all i've ever wanted to do is help animals i know i've seen you
33:08in action you're gonna be an amazing man thank you my point is i didn't always know what i wanted to do either
33:19i get that it's just it's hard to picture going back and and doing anything that isn't music
33:29i think that's why going back is a great thing yeah you can take a bunch of new classes and you can find
33:34a new passion yeah it's not as easy as you're making it sound well nothing worthwhile is hey but you are
33:43smart geo you're capable i mean come on we we rescued 10 dogs from dalton's lab i think we can find a
33:51couple of classes for you to take you're hard to say no to good
33:57i promise you we're gonna find your next thing together i'm sorry for cutting it so close where were
34:11you all rise be seated
34:28bring in the jury
34:41has the jury reached a verdict we have your honor
34:55you know if anyone's gonna help me figure out what i'm gonna do next
35:12it's you
35:16and you're just saying that because i'm super pushy aren't you
35:24well it's because
35:28the night that i found out about my birth parents and i came back to the quorum mains to grab my stuff
35:33i didn't have anywhere to go
35:39you said we would figure it out we did
35:43it's because you never know how things are gonna turn out
35:48just like i always thought you and i would just be friends
35:51i mean best friends but oh i'm your best friend we're like we're like best
35:57shut up i'm just trying to tell you something okay
36:05i just wasn't sure you'd ever return my feelings
36:08look how wrong you are
36:22i wasted so much of my life on cesar
36:24my children especially you deserved more from me and now says i was nothing but a brain in a jar
36:35yes he is
36:36yes now my priority is my family you your brother and rocco genetics be damned
36:49well i don't know how many games i could make
36:54but could you still order a jersey for me i already did
36:59and what do you know about ice hockey
37:06only that you can never see the puck our boy will be playing and we will be there to cheer him on
37:19easel
