02:28Let's go.
02:58I don't think I've done this since I got sober.
03:11What?
03:13Stay out all night with a cute girl you just met?
03:16Even just the staying out all night part.
03:19Well, speaking for myself,
03:22I had a really great time.
03:25I like you, Izzy.
03:28I like you, too.
03:29Yeah?
03:30Mm-hmm.
03:33Look, uh, Grace.
03:35Whoa.
03:36No, it's not that.
03:38It's just, uh...
03:40Everything in my life is just kind of crazy right now.
03:45Like, Twilight Zone crazy.
03:48Because of your, uh, your boss's trial?
03:51I know he seems like a headline, but...
03:54He's my family.
03:56And he needs me right now, and I can't let him down.
04:03So if that means I gotta drop whatever else might be going on when he calls,
04:06it's just what I gotta do.
04:09It's just where I'm at right now.
04:12I mean, I, uh...
04:15I think that just about the most important trait in a person is loyalty.
04:22No, I know you got it.
04:25Look, let's just...
04:27Let's just see what happens, you know?
04:29If you have some free time and you wanna hang,
04:32well, hang.
04:32And if your boss has to come first,
04:36I totally understand.
04:38I totally understand.
04:38Look, um, there's an Alfred by my apartment.
05:02How about you drive me home and I will buy you a latte for the road?
05:11Deal.
05:12Deal?
05:14Deal.
05:14Deal.
05:15I will even split my chocolate croissant with you.
05:18How about that?
05:19Whoa.
05:19Hey, no pressure.
05:20Those steaks.
05:21No pressure.
05:22But I'm sure my chocolate croissant...
05:23Some big words.
05:24Anybody.
05:35There you go.
05:54Hey.
05:58Oh, good.
05:59More coffee.
06:00And bagels.
06:01We need to get Mickey some real food.
06:08Somebody not get enough sleep last night.
06:12Well.
06:13Izzy, I know we're all working hard to keep things running around here,
06:17but you need to have a personal life, too.
06:19Uh...
06:20You're right, I know.
06:23Before I forget,
06:26the leases on the bus bench ads are due this week
06:28and they're raising the price 10%.
06:29Not sure if that's the best use of our resources.
06:32Hold off on that for a second.
06:33I think I have a plan for them.
06:36Okay.
06:37And, Cisco, you said you had a plan
06:39for the logjam at the tox lab?
06:41Working on it as we speak.
06:43Here, those renters and transforms you asked for.
06:46I thought you guys were putting an offer on our house.
06:47We were.
06:48We put it off, given all that's going on.
06:51You need to sign these.
06:52We can do that later.
06:53Right now, we need to get this case thrown out.
06:55Wish us luck.
06:56We're gonna need it.
06:57Good luck.
06:59Text me an update.
06:59Yeah.
07:00Is that a text?
07:11What it sounds like.
07:27Now, watch.
07:37This asshole didn't pull me over at random.
07:40Someone told him to.
07:41That's what I thought, too, but how do we prove it?
07:44I don't know yet, but we start with a subpoena
07:46for his phone records from that night.
07:48Work and personal.
07:50Mick, cops go nuts when you dig into their personal lives.
07:53There could be blowback.
07:54I'm already in jail for murder, Lorna.
07:56How much worse can it get?
07:57Mickey, one thing I've learned working for you
07:59is things can always get worse.
08:01I'll take my chances.
08:02And I know we said you should handle it,
08:04but I want to question this cover on myself.
08:05You take the bail motion.
08:10What?
08:10The judge's clerk called.
08:12He's already in trial, so there's only time for one motion.
08:15So I think we should do bail and push Collins off.
08:17No, no.
08:18If Collins is here, we put him on the stand right away.
08:20Besides, if we win the motion to dismiss,
08:22we won't even need bail.
08:23But if we don't, you're gonna have to stay inside.
08:26At least another night.
08:28Well, that is what it is.
08:29Come on.
08:30Let's go.
08:30Oh, one more thing.
08:33Are we ready to go with Vaja?
08:38Sure you want to do this?
08:40Damn right I am.
08:41Better safe than sorry.
08:42My life's on the line here.
08:47Yeah.
08:47We are all set.
08:48Say the word.
08:50All right.
08:50Let's go.
08:50Officer Collins, you testified that in the night of my arrest,
08:59you were on patrol downtown.
09:00Is that right?
09:01That's correct.
09:01I was on roaming assignment.
09:03That's where we park in different spots
09:04and keep an eye out for trouble.
09:06And that's how you came to be parked on 2nd Street
09:08when I came out of the restaurant?
09:10Yes.
09:11Okay.
09:11So can you tell the court exactly when and why
09:14you decided to pull me over?
09:15Well, when you pulled away from the curb,
09:17I saw that your vehicle did not have a license plate on it.
09:20That's a common capering move, so...
09:22Capering?
09:23Sometimes when people are involved in criminal activity,
09:26they remove the license plate off the vehicle
09:28to make it harder to identify.
09:29So when I saw your car did not have a plate on it,
09:32I decided to follow you,
09:33make sure you weren't up to anything illegal.
09:35A couple of blocks later, I initiated the stop.
09:38Did you see me walk out of the restaurant
09:39and head to my car?
09:42Yes, I did.
09:44Was I doing anything suspicious?
09:46Did you think I was drunk?
09:49No.
09:50So you weren't focused on me at all
09:52until you saw the missing license plate.
09:55Is that your testimony?
09:56Yes, that is the truth.
10:10Mr. Holler?
10:11Officer Collins, did anyone tell you to pull me over?
10:21No.
10:22Like I said, I saw the missing license plate,
10:24got suspicious, decided to follow you.
10:26So no one gave you a heads-up of any kind?
10:29No.
10:31And you weren't waiting in that spot
10:33so you could pull me over?
10:35Objection.
10:35Asked and answered more than once.
10:38Sustained.
10:39Move on, Mr. Holler.
10:40Yes, Your Honor.
10:43Um...
10:43Uh, Your Honor, can I have a...
10:49Can I have a moment to consult my notes?
10:52Just make it brief, please.
10:54Thank you, Your Honor.
10:55I didn't know Haley and Maggie were gonna be here.
11:05I asked Maggie to come
11:06in case we needed a character witness for bail.
11:08What are you waiting for?
11:13Is this guy's the video ready to go?
11:25Um...
11:25Your Honor, I...
11:27I have nothing further for this witness at this time.
11:38Are you sure, Mr. Holler?
11:44Yes.
11:45Any other witnesses?
11:47No, Your Honor.
11:53Very well.
11:55In that case,
11:57motion to dismiss is denied.
11:59The trial will continue as scheduled.
12:02Jury selection begins five weeks from today
12:04and we will reconvene 9 a.m. tomorrow
12:06so the counsel may be heard on bail.
12:09Court is adjourned.
12:10Not here.
12:11Not now.
12:19What the hell was that?
12:21You said that you wanted to question Collins,
12:23so you toss him a few softballs,
12:24you don't push him on any of it,
12:26and you don't even show the video footage.
12:27That guy knew he was gonna pull you over
12:29before he saw the missing plate.
12:31His testimony is bullshit.
12:33I know.
12:33I get that it was a long shot
12:35that the judge would dismiss the case,
12:36but at least we had a shot.
12:38Do you have any idea how rare that is?
12:39Yes, Lorna, I know.
12:41And trust me,
12:41I want this to be over more than anyone.
12:43But I can't have this case dismissing a technicality.
12:46Why the hell not?
12:48Because when I saw Maggie and Haley there,
12:50I realized if I ever want my life back
12:52and my family's life back then,
12:55I need my reputation back,
12:57and I need it to be pristine.
12:59Was it ever?
13:00If I just get the case thrown out,
13:02then everybody will always wonder,
13:03did he really do it?
13:05The only way to avoid that is full exoneration.
13:08I need to prove I'm innocent,
13:09and that only happens in trial.
13:10No, no, that never happens in trial, ever,
13:13and you know that.
13:14You always say you never get a finding of innocent.
13:17The best you can hope for is not guilty.
13:19What makes this any different?
13:20Well, me, that's what.
13:22I'm the client.
13:23I'm sitting in the other chair,
13:25and now I know what it's like.
13:26Plus, for the first time in my life,
13:28I'm 100% certain that my client didn't do it.
13:33Fine.
13:34How do we prove it?
13:36Well, it's the unwritten law of innocence.
13:39For every person who's not guilty of a crime,
13:42there's someone out there who is guilty of it.
13:44Somebody else did this.
13:46And to prove I'm innocent,
13:47we need to figure out
13:49who's not a straw man
13:50or a plausible theory,
13:52the real thing.
13:53And we need Sam's stock screen results
13:55to get started.
13:56Heels are in motion.
13:58All right.
13:59Listen, um,
14:00thank you,
14:01both of you,
14:02for everything.
14:05Oh, and Lorna,
14:06tell Maggie I'm sorry
14:07for wasting her time today.
14:08I'll make it up to her.
14:09Huh?
14:10One day.
14:11Hey, Mickey?
14:11What?
14:14I really hope you know
14:15what you're doing here.
14:17Me too.
14:19Whatever you need, Cisco,
14:47you can just ask.
14:49You don't need to get on my good side first.
14:51Well, actually,
14:52they're not for you.
14:53They're for Eric Cheever.
14:57Who is Eric Cheever?
14:58Eric Cheever is a technician
15:00at the county crime lab.
15:02And this is your plan
15:03to get over the six-week backlog?
15:06A box of chocolates.
15:06Well, that is not just
15:09any box of chocolates.
15:11That is the global
15:13sortement
15:14of Jean-Charles Rachu.
15:17Made in Paris.
15:18And I had to order it in French,
15:20so you know it's fancy.
15:23Not to mention
15:24the $175
15:26price tag.
15:28You spent $175
15:30on chocolate
15:30and we've been drinking
15:31Costco coffee?
15:33Well, actually,
15:33it was more than that.
15:34They don't ship
15:35outside of France,
15:36so I had to set up
15:37expedited international
15:38shipping myself.
15:41Desperate times.
15:43Okay, fine.
15:44Let's just say that
15:44any of this makes sense.
15:46Why can't you bring this
15:47to Mr. Cheever yourself?
15:49What?
15:51Hey, guys.
15:52Hi.
15:52Hey.
15:53Sorry to bother you.
15:54I actually just wanted
15:55to get my parking validated.
15:57You parked here?
15:58Have you tried parking
15:59at the court?
15:59It's a madhouse.
16:00Do you mind?
16:02Didn't you have an intern
16:03last time I was here?
16:05Uh, Jessica.
16:07Yeah, we had to let her go.
16:08Trying to keep costs down
16:09on everything
16:11but chocolate, apparently.
16:13I gotta run.
16:15I mean, Cheever.
16:20Lorna here.
16:21She's on the roof, actually.
16:23The roof?
16:24Okay, now remember,
16:31I need to look really pretty
16:32but also smart.
16:34Tough, but kind of sympathetic.
16:37Sweet, but potentially dangerous.
16:39I'm basically an Alanis Morissette song.
16:48Shit.
16:50Can we just take five?
16:52Maggie!
16:53Hey.
16:55I'm glad you came by.
16:56I was actually gonna call you.
16:58Oh, I helped Julie
17:00get out of a bunch
17:00of red light tickets
17:01so she kind of owes me a favor.
17:03And with Mickey being kind of
17:04unavailable,
17:06I figured I should up
17:07my self-promotion game.
17:08So,
17:09I am running my own
17:11bus bench ads.
17:12And billboards.
17:12L.A. is the city
17:13of billboard lawyers.
17:15God, you're reminding me
17:16why I like being on my side.
17:17Things I don't have to worry
17:18about working for the government.
17:19Yeah, there is just
17:20a lot going on.
17:21And I'm trying to keep the firm
17:23up and running
17:24without Mickey.
17:25Lorna, you don't have to
17:25explain anything to me.
17:26I'm so grateful that Mickey
17:28has you to step up for him.
17:30I did want to ask what you two
17:31were thinking today, though.
17:32I mean, you had the officer
17:33on the stand,
17:34and you didn't do anything
17:36to undermine his credibility.
17:38Trust me,
17:38that was not a we.
17:40That was all Mickey.
17:41He wants to go
17:42for full exoneration.
17:43He said it's the only way
17:44he's going to get his life back.
17:45So, he's gone from
17:46psychotically optimistic
17:47to recklessly risky.
17:49The 12 stages of Mickey holler.
17:51Yeah, let's get him out of jail
17:53before he discovers a 13th.
17:54That's actually why
17:55I was going to call you.
17:56You saw that we didn't
17:57get our bail motion today.
17:59And you need me to stick around
18:00until you do.
18:01Yes.
18:01It's scheduled
18:02for tomorrow morning.
18:03You are a deputy district attorney.
18:05Your testimony
18:05would go a really long way.
18:07I was already looking into it.
18:08I'll see what I can move around.
18:11Seriously.
18:14Oh, uh,
18:15I have to get back.
18:16Julie has to shoot
18:17a pet portrait
18:18in about two hours,
18:19so tick-tock.
18:22Oh, Lorna.
18:24You look great in Coral.
18:26I'd hire you.
18:27Ha, ha.
18:31You went okay?
18:36I think she had to cancel something,
18:38but she did agree to stay.
18:40Oh, also,
18:41I reached out to Legal.
18:42I think we need
18:42all the character testimony
18:44we can get.
18:44Uh, he'd love any excuse
18:46to get out,
18:46especially to court.
18:48Now, what about a bond?
18:49Did you call Val?
18:49He will be there, too.
18:51Hopefully, we can use him.
18:52Uh, hopefully.
18:53All right, one more thing.
18:54Um, are we, uh,
18:56are we ready to go on Baja?
19:00Yeah, Mick, it's all set.
19:02The whole package?
19:04Travel documents, everything?
19:06Yeah, the whole kit and caboodle.
19:08You can trust my guy on this, Mick.
19:10He's got it down to a science.
19:11What if, uh,
19:14what if they make me wear a bracelet?
19:16Well, he can do that, too.
19:19I could,
19:19because I'm only going to get one shot at this.
19:21It's a good thing you speak Spanish, Lorna.
19:23You guys can come down to visit me.
19:25We can eat future tacos on the beach.
19:28Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
19:30All right.
19:30I'll see you tomorrow.
19:31Good morning.
19:41We're on the record in People vs. Holler
19:43with a motion to reduce bail.
19:45Ms. Crane.
19:46Thank you, Your Honor.
19:47You have our motion,
19:49predicated, first of all,
19:50on the fact that Mr. Holler
19:51has not been charged
19:52with a special circumstances offense,
19:54and that at no time
19:55has the prosecution even hinted
19:57that he might be a danger to the community
19:59or a flight risk.
20:00In fact, Mr. Holler
20:01has shown nothing but determination
20:03to fight this outrageous charge
20:04and exonerate himself.
20:06The prosecution wants to keep him inside
20:08because they're afraid of that
20:09and want the field slanted in their favor.
20:11Additionally, Your Honor,
20:12I do have witnesses available
20:13to testify to Mr. Holler's character,
20:15if need be.
20:16Very well.
20:17Ms. Berg,
20:18I can see you're eager to respond.
20:20Yes.
20:21Thank you, Your Honor.
20:22I came in with a prepared statement
20:24about the fact that the defendant
20:26has both the means and motive to flee.
20:29The body was found in the trunk of his car,
20:31and the bullet in his garage, after all.
20:32Your Honor?
20:33We don't need a recap, Ms. Berg.
20:35But all of that pales
20:36in light of the disturbing information
20:38that I received this morning.
20:40I'm afraid that I must make the court aware
20:42that there is an ongoing investigation
20:44into allegations that the defendant
20:46has plans to flee the country
20:49to Mexico upon his release.
20:51Seriously, Your Honor?
20:52Ms. Berg seems more desperate
20:53to keep me in jail than I am to get out.
20:55That is quite an allegation, Ms. Berg.
20:58I hope you can back it up.
21:00All I know at the moment
21:01is that a confidential informant in jail
21:04told investigators that the defendant
21:06plans to flee to Baja, California
21:09upon his release.
21:10This plan also includes
21:12potentially circumventing an electronic monitor.
21:16Mr. Holler, care to respond?
21:18Yes, Your Honor, I would.
21:19First of all, there is no confidential informant.
21:22There are only the jail deputies listening in
21:24on privileged phone calls
21:26and then feeding what they hear to the prosecution
21:28in an outrageous violation
21:29of my constitutional rights.
21:31Another very serious accusation.
21:34I understand that, Your Honor,
21:35but the sanctity of attorney-client privilege
21:37is a bedrock of our judicial system.
21:40Now, I've been suspicious
21:41that some of the deputies
21:43might be spying on me in jail.
21:45That's why my team and I
21:46decided to test our theory.
21:47We created a false story
21:49during a privileged phone call
21:50with my co-counsel,
21:51and that story just came out
21:53of Ms. Burke's mouth practically verbatim.
21:55The audacity, Your Honor.
21:57He just confirmed the plan himself,
21:59and now he's trying to spin it
22:00into some conspiracy theory?
22:02Oh, I assure the court is no theory.
22:04Although he conveniently has no evidence
22:07to provide in support of it.
22:08Privileged calls are not recorded,
22:10as the defendant knows.
22:11Yeah, well, this one was.
22:13As I said, Your Honor,
22:14we were testing our theory,
22:15so my investigator taped the call.
22:17We can play right now.
22:19Uh, objection.
22:20To what exactly, Ms. Burke?
22:22Well, for one thing,
22:23we have no way to authenticate this call.
22:26Your Honor, our investigator
22:27can authenticate it under oath.
22:29And as an officer of the court,
22:30I can attest to the accuracy
22:32of the recording.
22:33You introduced this insanity to Ms. Burke,
22:35so either Mr. Holler
22:36is a flight risk,
22:37or we have an even more serious problem.
22:40In either case,
22:41you should be as interested
22:42in the truth as I am.
22:43Play the tape, Ms. Crane.
22:44Lorna Crane?
23:01This is a collect call
23:02from Mickey Holler
23:04at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility.
23:05Do you accept the charges?
23:06Yes.
23:08Hello? Lorna?
23:09Hey, it's me.
23:10We are all set for the bail hearing tomorrow.
23:11One second, Lorna.
23:13This is Mickey Holler,
23:14pro-sait defendant,
23:15talking to my co-counsel, Lorna Crane.
23:17This call is privileged and confidential.
23:19It should not be recorded.
23:20All right, go ahead, Lorna.
23:22Like I said,
23:23I've got my argument all set,
23:24and also, I talked to Maggie.
23:27With the court's permission,
23:28I'd like to jump ahead
23:29to the relevant section.
23:31Please.
23:35All right, one more thing.
23:37Um, are we good to go in Baja?
23:39Yeah, man, it's all set.
23:41Whole package, travel documents, everything?
23:44Yeah, the whole kit and caboodle.
23:46You can trust my guy on this, Mick.
23:47He's got it down to a science.
23:50What if, uh,
23:51what if they make me wear a bracelet?
23:53Well, he can do that, too.
23:54It's a good thing you speak Spanish, Lorna.
23:56Um, you guys can't come down to visit me.
23:58We can eat fish tacos on the beach.
24:00Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
24:02All right, I'll see you both tomorrow.
24:10This is Lorna Crane,
24:12co-counsel for Pro Se defendant Michael Holler.
24:15This conversation was a test
24:16to see if attorney-client privilege
24:18has been violated.
24:19It is currently 6.48 p.m.
24:22on Thursday, November 6th.
24:26Order.
24:34Order.
24:36Everyone.
24:38Your Honor,
24:39on my word,
24:40as an officer of the court,
24:41I did not listen to that call.
24:44What I presented to the court
24:45is what was reported to me
24:46by representatives of the sheriff's department.
24:48I had no reason to doubt their story.
24:51Apparently you did, Miss Burke.
24:52A serious injustice has been done,
24:56not only to this defendant,
24:57but to the system at large.
24:59There will be an investigation,
25:00and the responsible parties
25:01will be punished.
25:02In the meantime,
25:03I'm ready to rule on bail,
25:04unless the people have
25:05anything else they'd like to add.
25:08No, Your Honor.
25:10A wise choice.
25:12In that case,
25:13I'm reducing bail to $1 million
25:14effective immediately.
25:17Is that acceptable to the defense?
25:23I, uh...
25:24Yes, Your Honor.
25:26Very well.
25:28Court is adjourned.
25:29Well done.
25:52Oh, there they are.
25:53Uh, I'll catch up
25:53with you guys in the back.
25:54All right.
25:55I gotta say, Mick,
25:56that they busted your ass good this time,
25:58but then you busted off
25:59that phone call.
26:00Shit.
26:01They're gonna be sorry
26:02they messed with you, man.
26:04Hey, Val,
26:04I appreciate your help,
26:05and we need to work out a deal,
26:07even $100,000 right now.
26:08Hey, I'm gonna give you
26:09the friends and family discount
26:10this time, Mick.
26:1210% of the 10%.
26:13Just give me $10,000
26:14and we're square, babe.
26:15I really appreciate it, Val.
26:17Hey, I'll wire it
26:18by the end of the day.
26:19Okay, but in exchange,
26:20I'm gonna need
26:20some real work this time.
26:22Huh?
26:22I think I've earned it?
26:24Yeah, my word.
26:24Oh, and one more thing.
26:29If you do skip town,
26:30it's me who's gonna be
26:31out the million bucks,
26:32so I'm gonna need
26:33the deed to your house.
26:35Just in case.
26:36Oh, come on.
26:37I'm just fucking with your face.
26:39Your face.
26:42Face.
26:42I always wondered
26:51if they were eavesdropping
26:53on those phone calls.
26:55Oh, now you know
26:56you were right.
26:57I'm not happy about it.
26:59Hopefully those assholes
27:00get what they deserve.
27:01I hope you don't get worse, kid.
27:03I keep warning you
27:05about criminals with badgers.
27:07Going after a single cop
27:09is one thing,
27:10but you just put
27:11the whole sheriff's department
27:12under a microscope.
27:14They're not gonna
27:15take that lying down.
27:17Well, I'll worry
27:18about it tomorrow.
27:18Right now,
27:19I just wanna breathe
27:20some fresh air, you know?
27:22Mickey!
27:22Mickey, how does it feel?
27:23Trying to press charges, Haller?
27:25Do you have any specific
27:26information about who you made?
27:27No comment, everyone.
27:29We'll be late.
27:31Let's get you out of here.
27:33Where do you want to go?
27:36Uh...
27:36I feel like I'll never
27:50get that smell out of my nose.
27:52You will.
27:54That was amazing, Dad.
27:55The way you busted those dicks
27:56for listening in on you.
27:58I'm still so angry about that.
28:00Yeah.
28:00Your mom hates it
28:01when her side cheats.
28:03I do.
28:03That seems like
28:03they cheat a lot.
28:04That's my girl.
28:05You know what?
28:09I hate to cut it short,
28:10but I have to get going.
28:12Mom, he's been locked up
28:13for weeks.
28:14Yeah, well, you can stay
28:15for as long as you want,
28:16but I can't rearrange
28:17my schedule again.
28:18Your mom has a job
28:19to get back to, Haley,
28:20and she never cheats.
28:24Besides,
28:24I'm sure Jack is anxious
28:25to have you back.
28:27How long has it been?
28:30A few days.
28:31Oh, I mean,
28:32since, uh...
28:33since you started
28:34seeing each other.
28:36Oh, um,
28:37six months, almost?
28:40What does he think
28:41about all this?
28:43What, you in the charges?
28:46Probably thinks I did it, right?
28:48Dad.
28:49No, he doesn't think
28:51you did it.
28:53What's funny is that
28:54you think we spend
28:55all of our time
28:56talking about you.
28:57We have a very full life
28:59without all the Mickey
29:00Holler melodrama.
29:01I doubt he thinks
29:02about it much.
29:03Yeah, that actually
29:04sounds nice.
29:06I wish I could stop
29:07thinking about it, too.
29:08Well, you can, now.
29:11And you keep your dad
29:12out of many more trouble.
29:14You okay if I stay
29:15with you for a while?
29:15Are you kidding?
29:17You stay with me
29:17as long as you want, honey.
29:21You gonna beat this, Mickey?
29:22From your lips
29:23to God's ears.
29:24Or at least
29:25that wrote Danis.
29:26I'll, uh, text you
29:28when I get home.
29:29Okay, bye, Mom.
29:30Bye.
29:30Bye, Maggie.
29:31Bye.
29:44Can I help you?
29:45Yes, I'm...
29:47Can you excuse me
29:51for a second?
29:56Is, did it work?
30:05I don't know yet,
30:06because when I got here,
30:07the first thing I saw
30:07was your picture
30:08actually on a board
30:09with a red line through it.
30:11You mind telling me
30:11what's going on?
30:12Uh, that might be
30:14because I'm banned
30:15from the building.
30:16Banned from the building?
30:19You know what
30:19the real crime is?
30:20That lab is notoriously
30:22backed up.
30:22That's the real crime.
30:23Cisco, how did you get
30:24banned from the
30:25county crime lab?
30:26Well, the bosses
30:27got wind of my, uh,
30:29little inducements,
30:30but, uh, don't worry.
30:31They haven't seen you
30:32before.
30:32You're safe.
30:33Okay, but why am I
30:34bringing this guy chocolate?
30:36Please tell me
30:36he's not a diabetic
30:37or anything
30:37because I am not down
30:39with pushing sugar
30:39on somebody.
30:40It is nothing like that.
30:42Then what exactly
30:42is it like?
30:44Have you ever been
30:44to one of those
30:45molecular gastronomy
30:46restaurants where they
30:48serve you a kind of,
30:49I don't know,
30:50foam?
30:51They tell you it's food?
30:52I'm aware of the
30:53concept.
30:54Well, Jeever's into
30:55that.
30:56But with chocolate,
30:57he wants to create
30:58his own line.
30:59You know,
31:00fill him with all
31:01kinds of weird stuff.
31:03First, he wants to
31:04try the best chocolates
31:05from everywhere.
31:06Which is tough to do
31:07on a lab tech salary.
31:08Right.
31:09Plus, his wife
31:10is a dental hygienist
31:12and he's prone to
31:14cavities, so...
31:15I'm sensing you're
31:18uncomfortable.
31:20Can't imagine
31:21where you got that idea.
31:22We really need those
31:23files, Iz.
31:24Please.
31:25What do I even say?
31:27Just say you're from
31:28Dr. Hershey's office
31:30and you got an appointment.
31:31I know exactly
31:31what it means.
31:32Doctor.
31:35Fine.
31:36But when I get arrested,
31:37you're bailing me out.
31:38Is he not gonna get
31:40arrested?
31:42Hello?
31:44Hi.
31:45Um, I'm here to see
31:46Eric Cheever.
31:48Dr. Hershey sent me.
31:54All that bullshit
31:55about the long-distance stuff
31:57keeping our marriage
31:58sexy and unpredictable.
32:00I'm like an idiot.
32:01I believed you.
32:02Did you really think
32:03I could go without sex
32:04for weeks at a time?
32:06Okay, let's see.
32:06Did you think that lying
32:07about it was a good idea?
32:08We could have talked about it.
32:09We did.
32:10I told you to come with me.
32:11And I told you
32:12I can't just follow you around.
32:14I have a career, too.
32:15What?
32:16Your little shop
32:16on Larchmont?
32:18You sell candles
32:19and tchotchkes.
32:20It's my architectural firm
32:22that pays for our lifestyle.
32:24Fuck you, Tom.
32:25You build tract homes
32:26in the suburbs.
32:26You're not exactly
32:27Frank Lloyd Wright.
32:28Okay, let me interrupt
32:30this extremely moving
32:32discourse
32:33to bring up
32:33the prenuptial agreement
32:34that you both signed,
32:36Mrs. Baker.
32:36And I'm sure you've had
32:37the opportunity
32:38to go over it by now,
32:39Ms. Crane.
32:39So you're aware
32:40that infidelity
32:42does not negate the terms?
32:44Maybe not,
32:45but bodily harm should.
32:47What bodily harm?
32:48I mean, all parties
32:49are in agreement
32:49that Mr. Baker
32:50was unfaithful,
32:51but hardly abusive.
32:53Uh, little Tommy
32:55brought home an STD.
32:57What?
32:58Bullshit.
32:59If you have an STD,
33:01you got it from that guy
33:02in your pottery class,
33:03the one with the beads.
33:04Oh, okay.
33:05Mrs. Baker
33:06had a full blood panel
33:08done at a physical
33:09the week before
33:10she flew to see
33:11Mr. Baker
33:12in Minneapolis
33:13for the regularly scheduled
33:14rendezvous to
33:15stay connected.
33:18It came back clean.
33:20Ten days later,
33:21here are her test results.
33:24Well, that's one way
33:26to stay connected, Tom.
33:27We can go to the clinic together.
33:29And the plain language
33:30of the prenup
33:31does make it clear
33:32that bodily harm
33:33does in fact invalidate it.
33:34Well, even if this is true,
33:37which I doubt that it is,
33:39that clause refers to
33:41physical abuse,
33:42not inadvertent infection.
33:45Well, that's just open
33:47to interpretation.
33:48Well, then you could just
33:50take us to court.
33:51Give it a try.
33:52We'll spend whatever money
33:54they're fighting over
33:55on legal fees.
33:57Or, here,
33:58that
33:58is our final offer.
34:06Call me when you're ready
34:07to accept it.
34:07I couldn't even afford
34:20to stay in the house
34:21with this.
34:23I mean, after all the shit
34:24that I put up with,
34:25I'll end up with this
34:26herpes and a big bruise
34:27on my lip
34:28and the parking brake
34:29of his car.
34:30Wait, what does the car
34:30have to do with it?
34:31Told you.
34:32Last time I saw him,
34:33we had sex in his car.
34:35That's when I got infected.
34:36Wait, you had sex
34:39in his car?
34:39He was like,
34:40oh, we'll be like
34:40teenagers again.
34:41His girlfriend was probably
34:42upstairs in his apartment
34:43and that's why we had
34:44to do it in his car.
34:45I cannot believe this.
35:02Hi, uh, Gilroy?
35:04Straight that way.
35:06It's good to see you.
35:16Yeah, me too.
35:17So, I ordered some appetizers
35:20and, uh, this is that
35:22white Bordeaux that you like?
35:24Perfect.
35:25Yeah.
35:25I'm so sorry.
35:26I'm late.
35:27Traffic backed up
35:27when I hit La Jolla.
35:28Yeah.
35:28Yeah.
35:28I missed you last night.
35:33I'm sorry about that, too.
35:37They were going to make an argument
35:38to reduce bail this morning
35:39and thought I would make
35:40a good character witness.
35:42Ex-wives don't usually make
35:43the best cheerleaders.
35:44Well, I think it has more to do
35:46with me being a deputy DA.
35:48Neutralizes the law and order argument.
35:52What about you?
35:52Anything exciting this week?
35:54Well, without you,
35:55my life is always less exciting.
35:57Oh, I'm sure you say that
35:59to all the gals.
36:02I may have to go up to L.A.
36:04next week, actually.
36:05Oh.
36:05On one of the Lakers
36:06tour his ACL.
36:08Oh, God.
36:09Yeah.
36:10Do you ever think about
36:11how our jobs rely on
36:12other people's misfortune?
36:13I prefer to see myself
36:15as the hero who flies in
36:17and saves the day.
36:18Oh.
36:21Well, if you can get away,
36:22maybe you could come up, too.
36:25Yeah.
36:26It'd be nice.
36:27I could see Haley.
36:28She's spending a few days
36:29with her dad, so.
36:30So he did get out on bail?
36:33Yeah, he did.
36:35I couldn't believe it.
36:37He thought that someone
36:38was listening in
36:39on his privileged calls,
36:40and it turned out he was right.
36:41I hate it when prosecutors
36:44break the rules.
36:45It, like, invalidates
36:47everything that we work for.
36:49Honestly, sometimes I think
36:51that Mickey's been right
36:51all along.
36:53I mean, I'm a prosecutor
36:54through and through,
36:55but this case?
36:57I know the evidence looks bad.
36:59I know they hate Mickey
37:00because he beats them
37:01all the time,
37:02but a killer?
37:02There is no way
37:04that Iceberg believes that.
37:05Iceberg?
37:07Dana Berg.
37:08Oh.
37:08Came up together.
37:10I just never thought
37:10she'd be this blind.
37:11I mean, it's Mickey
37:11Holler we're talking about.
37:13It sure is.
37:17I haven't seen you,
37:18and all I'm doing
37:18is talking about myself.
37:20And him.
37:23Right.
37:23Yeah.
37:24I'm sorry.
37:26Let's talk about you.
37:27Did you spend the weekend
37:28with the kids?
37:29Matter of fact, I did.
37:31Yeah.
37:31Nice.
37:32I took him to the movies.
37:33Great.
37:34That was fun.
37:35Try that.
37:36It's cheating.
37:37Ave.
37:44Yeah.
37:53It's одна.
37:54It's a little bit different,
37:55too.
37:56It's just a little bit different.
37:57About who made me
37:58to go down and make me
37:59as she said,
37:59like,
38:01DIYs,

38:05like,
38:06Can't sleep?
38:31Oh, no. Did I wake you up?
38:33No, no. I can't sleep either.
38:36It's too quiet.
38:38Got used to all the noise in jail, I guess.
38:41It's weird as I couldn't sleep while you were in jail.
38:43Now you're out. I still can't.
38:50I don't want you to worry about me, honey.
38:53Yeah. Well, easier said than done.
38:59Come here.
39:01You know, why don't I make us some popcorn?
39:10You know, watch a movie and fall asleep on the couch like regular people.
39:14Sounds perfect.
39:26Sam's tox results.
39:28How'd you get him so fast?
39:31Uh, got a little assist from Izzy.
39:34Sure enough, they found red and all in his system.
39:36Ah, that makes sense.
39:37Whoever wanted to frame me, they had to shoot Sam in my car, but first they had to roofie him to get him there.
39:42But if the story is that you did it, wouldn't you have to leave your house to go get Sam?
39:47Couldn't we just use the GPS phone records to show that you never left your house?
39:51No, they'll just say I left my phone at home.
39:53And with the security cameras out, there's no way to disprove it.
39:55Does raise an important question, though.
39:57If somebody picked up Sam and roofied him, where did they pick him up from?
40:03Look at this.
40:08You see that? The glimmer? On the wheel.
40:12Yeah, what is that?
40:13We also got the preliminary analysis from the crime scene.
40:16According to the report, it's cooking grease.
40:19Cooking grease? What, like vegetable or what?
40:21With chicken fat, maybe.
40:22So what, Sam was working in a restaurant?
40:24Yeah, only if he figured out a way to sell them fake chickens.
40:29What the hell was Sam up to?
40:33We don't know.
40:34But we do know that the lead detective, Kent Drucker, has hired a forensic accountant who's digging through his finances.
40:41Ah, we should do our own digging. Can you blow this up? The pocket?
40:50What does that look like to you?
40:52A wallet, maybe?
40:53That's what it looks like to me, too. But if it's a wallet, then where is it? It's not in the property report we got in Discovery.
40:59It's not?
41:00Nope. That is definitely a wallet.
41:02Uh, draft an emergency motion to compel Discovery again. And subpoena this Detective Drucker. He's the one who signed the property report.
41:09Wait, you really think that Dana Berg would try to bury the evidence again?
41:13I don't know. Maybe she's not the one burying it.
41:14I don't know. Maybe she's not the one burying it.
41:15Then who?
41:16Part of me thinks it's all about the Lacoste case. I mean, I embarrass the entire system.
41:21No, they embarrass themselves.
41:23Yeah, well, they're still sweating overriding as a settlement check. There's people who'd be happy to lock me up and throw away the key.
41:30Probably doesn't help that you just rubbed the Sheriff's Department's nose in it again.
41:35Yeah, congratulations. You really are public enemy number one now.
41:39All I know is if somebody's hiding that wallet, they're doing it for a reason.
41:48What do we know about Sam?
41:50That he was a con man and a generally despicable human being. May he rest in peace.
41:55What else? I mean, what's the one thing all con men use when they're running a scam?
42:01A false identity.
42:03Sam had a million of them.
42:05That's it. I mean, we're sitting here trying to figure out what Sam was up to, but he told us the last time we saw him, remember?
42:12The judge agreed to supervise probation, and all he has to do is pay all the money back.
42:16Which is not happening anytime soon. What are you talking about?
42:20Look, I have to pay way more to my last investor. If I don't pay them, I'm dead.
42:24Sam was running a long con, something big.
42:26And whatever identity he was using, it would be in the wallet.
42:30Exactly. That's why somebody buried it. We find that wallet, we find out what Sam was up to, and with who.
42:35All right. I'm on the motion.
42:37I'll run the wallet up the flagpole with my contact at the LAPD. I wouldn't count on anything, though.
42:42I see. Do you mind driving me somewhere?
42:44No problem. Where are we going?
42:45Uh, there's just something I have to pick up.
42:51This is your ankle monitor. Per the terms of your bail agreement, you must wear it 24 hours a day so that we can keep track of your movements.
42:58Can I shower?
42:59Yes. But don't submerge it in a bath or a swimming pool.
43:03And whatever you do, you may not remove it. If you do, the police will be notified immediately.
43:08He won't remove it. Raise your pant leg, please.
43:15You have been approved to move about freely as long as you stay within the borders of Los Angeles County.
43:23Do not step across that line even for a second.
43:27We have a GPS tracker, so we will know where you are at all times.
43:32How long does the battery last?
43:35Up to 40 hours. But we don't recommend you test that. You should charge it every night.
43:39If the battery gets slow, a light will blink and an alert will sound.
43:43If you allow the battery to die, we will assume you took it off and law enforcement will be notified.
43:49Is that all?
43:50That's it. You're free to go, Mr. Holler. As soon as you pay for the rental of the equipment.
43:54Wait, he has to pay for it?
43:56I'll make the rules.
44:02Who gets the rules?
44:11I'll make the rules?
44:26Can't I call Doolittle?
44:31I don't know.
45:01I don't know.
45:31I don't know.
45:41Celeste, it's Lorna.
45:43I think I have a plan.
45:45Call me back.
45:49You'll get used to it.
45:51No, I won't.
45:52I don't want to either.
45:54So what, back to the office?
45:57No.
45:58You know what, let's have dinner.
46:00Dinner?
46:01It's 4.30.
46:02Yeah, well, I'm still on county time, Izzy.
46:04Let's go to Musso and Frank's.
46:06My treat.
46:07Tell Lorna and Cisco to join us.
46:08Okay.
46:09I'm out on bail.
46:10No matter what else, that's a win.
46:11Hey.
46:12Might as well celebrate, right?
46:13I won't argue with three.
46:15Uh, Mickey.
46:17I swear I parked it legally.
46:23Oh, come on, you asshole.
46:25Hey!
46:26Hey, that's my car.
46:27The meter's not even empty.
46:29It's not my problem.
46:30I got orders, pal.
46:31Orders from who?
46:37Hey, you want to tell me what this is about?
46:39Hey.
46:40As if I don't already know.
46:41I suggest you take a step back, sir.
46:44According to our records, that vehicle constitutes drug proceeds under penal code section 502 and consequently is being seized.
46:52Drug proceeds, seriously?
46:53Yes, sir.
46:54Apparently it was purchased with cartel funds.
46:56Oh, I see.
46:57And this has nothing to do with me busting you assholes for listening in on my calls?
47:01I wouldn't know anything about that, sir.
47:03All right.
47:04I'm just doing my job.
47:05But if you don't mind me saying so, you sound a little paranoid.
47:11Legal was right.
47:20They're not gonna take this lying down.
47:22They're coming for me.
47:24This is just the beginning.
47:41When I was trying to drop down to a rug, you feel free?
