00:30What? That I killed my partner in my own backyard? Why would I do that?
00:33There's residue on your hands.
00:35Because we were shooting.
00:36Stuart lives for this. He is the man for the job.
00:38I cannot go with someone who doesn't believe me.
00:41The entire 25th floor is gone.
00:42You should back out of the fight for Head of Entertainment.
00:44Gives us the best shot at working together after I get it.
00:46You pick a side before you know who's going to win.
00:49Instead, figure that out, you're nothing.
00:50Samantha, was it your idea to cut me out of the new firm or was it Stuart's?
00:54His.
00:54Lester, he doesn't believe you.
00:56I do.
00:56My client pleads not guilty.
00:58You're both going to regret this.
00:59Lester won't.
01:00Because I have an infelos case and I'm sure as hell not going to start now.
01:06Just the woman I wanted to see.
01:08Oh, I was going to say the same thing.
01:10To who?
01:11Your mom.
01:12My mom passed away years ago.
01:16Way to suck the fun out of the morning.
01:18You here to tell me I have a tumor?
01:19I wanted to talk about Dylan Pryor.
01:21Give it to me.
01:22She's got two movies.
01:23One's an indie, the other's a potential action franchise.
01:25I'm sure you can guess what the priority is.
01:27Of course.
01:28Of course I can.
01:30Erica?
01:31Yes?
01:31You have no idea who Dylan Pryor is, do you?
01:34You have no proof of that.
01:35I could know.
01:36Erica, who's Dylan Pryor?
01:37I'll tell you who.
01:38She is your client who we signed last week, who you need me to take care of, which I will.
01:43That'll be all.
01:45Are you dismissing me?
01:46Can I?
01:48Uh, it remains to be seen.
01:50Get out.
01:52Did it work?
01:53No.
01:53Okay, funny games aside, Stewart taking half the firm is still the talk of the town.
01:57Dylan Pryor is a new client.
01:58You are the new head of entertainment.
02:01Ted, I understand what the stakes are, and I know that you're focusing on Lester's murder trial.
02:05Whatever Dylan Pryor needs, I'll get it done.
02:11Hi.
02:12Hey.
02:14What are you doing on our floor?
02:17It's lonely up there.
02:18I'm the only one left on the whole floor.
02:20What, do you want to come down here?
02:21We've got Stewart's office.
02:22Why would I do that?
02:23I put the whole floor to myself.
02:25Mm-hmm.
02:26Hey, since you're down here, what do you know about Hanrahan and the DA's office?
02:31Why?
02:33Is Hanrahan prosecuting your shady producer murderer?
02:37Those aren't the exact words that I would use to describe Lester, but you're, yeah, go on.
02:41Well, let me just say, if I knew old man Hanrahan would be the one prosecuting me, I'd rob a
02:46bank.
02:47The client got lucky.
02:48I get the feeling you're not the biggest fan of Lester.
02:50I'm not a fan of people buying their way out of trouble.
02:53He's not buying me.
02:54He's paying me.
02:56And his only trouble is being accused of a murder he didn't commit.
02:58Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to go interview my shady producer murderer and check in on old man
03:03Hanrahan.
03:04Between us, I don't think you should be referring to your client as a shady producer murderer.
03:11It's kind of productive.
03:19Are you kidding me?
03:20Who drops a good and plenty into the paper feeder?
03:23Leah?
03:26Are you okay?
03:27No.
03:28Why?
03:28What happened?
03:29Um, how can I help you?
03:31You like movies and television, right?
03:33Of course.
03:34What kind of entertainment lawyer wouldn't love...
03:37You know, I'm more of a book girl myself.
03:39Oh.
03:40Uh, why do you ask?
03:41What do you know about Dylan Pryor?
03:42Is this a trick question?
03:43I've seen every movie she's ever done.
03:45There's nothing I don't know about her.
03:46Great.
03:47Then grab her file and come with me.
03:49And don't eat that.
03:50Of course I won't.
03:57She was right.
03:58So you and Simon went to your movie's premiere.
04:01Everyone had a good time.
04:02Yeah, had a great time.
04:03And, you know, we went back to the house.
04:04Did ecstasy.
04:05How many pills?
04:06We each took one.
04:07Wasn't working fast enough, but we didn't think it was working at all, so we split a third pill.
04:12Then the guns came out.
04:13Yep.
04:14Simon took the Luger, I took the Glock, and we set up the target.
04:17A picture of the head of the studio.
04:19You know the man.
04:19He's a bastard.
04:20Not in dispute.
04:21We start shooting.
04:22Most of the time it starts getting a little weird.
04:25Weird?
04:25Weird how?
04:26He starts saying he's a fraud.
04:27No one really knows him.
04:29I start to realize I'm watching a man battle with himself for his own sanity.
04:35He starts getting darker and darker, saying he doesn't deserve to be here.
04:40That's what he said.
04:40I don't deserve to be here.
04:42That's when it happened.
04:45Simon, he raises the gun to his head.
04:47I try to stop him, but he snaps at me.
04:50He is fully crazy at this point, and I grab his arm, but Simon's like a thousand times stronger than
04:57me.
04:57And the gun is now aimed right at his head, and I'm screaming at him, please, please, Simon.
05:04Don't do it.
05:04Don't do it, Simon.
05:05And next thing I know, bang.
05:08Simon is dead, and I've got his blood all over me, and I don't know what to do.
05:15Finally, I call 911, they get there, and they arrest me then and there.
05:20My best friend of 20 years is lying on the ground, and they arrest me.
05:28Okay, Lester.
05:30Okay.
05:31We got what we needed.
05:33We've got a meeting with the prosecutor later.
05:35I'll give you a call afterwards.
05:36I'll let you know how it goes.
05:37All right.
05:39All right.
05:43All right.
05:45What's on your mind?
05:46Something's not right about you, boy.
05:48I mean, it tells a good story, but I know I lie when I see one.
05:53Kevin, it's different out here.
05:55People lie.
05:56They cheat.
05:57They do whatever they can to push their project through.
06:00Would I trust Lester with my girlfriend?
06:02I would, but look at me.
06:04Look at him.
06:05I don't have anything to worry about.
06:06If I'm hurt, I'm going with him.
06:08You're delusional.
06:09One word.
06:10Jamie.
06:12Jamie was a one-time thing.
06:14Kevin, seriously, Lester's a lot of things.
06:19He's not a murderer.
06:22Well, you didn't bring my ass out here to believe him.
06:25You brought me here to find out anything they can use against us.
06:29So I'm going to do that.
06:30But Ted, you better start wrapping your mind around the fact that he may have done this.
06:43See the money won't stay for your meal
06:47Getting all the pieces of pie for your wife
06:51Everybody want to know how it feels
06:54Everybody want to see what it's like
06:57Believe you need to be proud
06:59I don't mind
07:01Me and Missy is so
07:02But this is the pieces that make you run
07:04All right
07:06Gosh, come back
07:08All the time to dance
07:12Dream back
07:14Dylan, hey, good to hear from you.
07:18Who's Erica Rollins and why is she calling me?
07:20She is the new head of entertainment and an excellent attorney
07:23An excellent attorney that I have never even met
07:26Look, Dylan
07:27Rick, I knew Ted was going to pawn me off
07:28I just thought that it was going to be you
07:30It was going to be me, but I left for another firm
07:33But trust me, Erica is fully capable of taking care of you
07:36Rick, look, I signed on to do an indie movie that my friend wrote
07:38But the schedule conflicts with my Warner Brothers movie
07:41And I am not letting an indie movie get in the way of my career
07:43I get that, but I can't represent you
07:46I am prohibited from poaching
07:47Well, then can't you convince Ted to handle this for me instead of Erica?
07:50I wish I could, but to tell you the truth
07:52I don't think Ted would take my call right now
07:58Right on time
08:00I like that
08:02You're not old man Hanrahan
08:05You think they'd send a high-profile case like this to Hanrahan?
08:09He's who they send when they don't care what happens
08:11I'm who they send when they do
08:12I'm who they send when they have no chance
08:14But they need a win anyway
08:16Lester Thompson needs a win, all right
08:18But this plea deal
08:20It's the closest he's going to get
08:21That's where we're going to start
08:22Why not?
08:23That's where we're going to finish
08:24Then maybe you didn't hear, but Lester pled not guilty at his arraignment
08:28Well, he should have pled insanity
08:30Because I heard he dropped one of the premier defense attorneys in the nation
08:33To put his life in the hands of a glorified, black-shirt, no-tie talent agent
08:39You forgot former federal prosecutor
08:41And I never did work at the local level
08:43But unless whatever that is
08:45Says you're dropping the charges
08:47I'll see you in court
08:49Okay, but you should know I'm not three hours into this thing
08:52And I've got the victim's blood all over your client
08:55A coroner's report inconsistent with suicide
08:58And a line around the block
09:00Of people begging to testify that Lester Thompson's love language is lying
09:05So you might want to run this bad boy by your client
09:08Just in case
09:18Ted, oh, you really didn't have to come
09:19Samantha, it's your client's big night
09:21I told you I wouldn't miss it
09:23And I won't
09:23I promise when this is over
09:25I'll make you feel better
09:54Come on, he's about to go
09:56If you bring a gun
09:58You know what?
09:59I don't think he got beat up
10:00I think he had a run-in with Plymouth Rock
10:02Only he didn't land on Plymouth Rock
10:04Plymouth Rock landed on him
10:07You know the next time they swing on you
10:09You just need to duck
10:10Get down
10:15You wanted to see me
10:16Yes
10:18Please close the door
10:20We have something to talk about
10:21HR sent this over
10:25Rick's being made head of entertainment
10:26What about it?
10:27Our agreement was
10:28You keep someone at Ted's for six months
10:30And they keep an eye on him
10:31Then whoever it is
10:32Comes over and gets this title
10:34But we had an opportunity
10:34To weaken Ted out of the gate
10:36And I took it
10:36A call
10:38You made on your own
10:40I'm not signing off on this
10:41Without getting something for it
10:42I thought we were going to be partners
10:43Stuart
10:44You came to me a week before we merged
10:46Wanting to cut Ted out
10:47It was against my better judgment
10:49But I went along with it
10:50Now you
10:51A criminal defense attorney
10:52Are trying to dictate
10:53Who I name head of entertainment
10:55So who's not being a good partner now?
10:58I'm going to have to double down here
11:01Bob the janitor is now in charge of real estate
11:04I appreciate you accepting this
11:05Now
11:06Do you want to tell Rick
11:07Or should I?
11:11Just to be clear
11:13We're entitled to Dylan's services
11:14For six months
11:15And we intend to enforce those rights
11:17We're all aware of that
11:18But it's a small role
11:19And Dylan's new Warner Brothers deal
11:20Can't kick in until after she's released
11:22How is that my problem?
11:23Fred
11:24I know you're concerned about our rights
11:26But Dylan is my friend
11:27And I'm the one who's putting up
11:29The money for this movie
11:30I can have her out in three months
11:31Give us another month for safety
11:34And you can have two months back
11:37Fine
11:37Excellent
11:38I'll drop an amendment
11:39And get it right to you
11:42I just have to say
11:43I'm a huge fan
11:44And what you did for Dylan
11:45Was huge
11:47Of course I would do it for her
11:48She's my friend
11:49Anyway
11:49I'm really excited to see this movie
11:51You plus Dylan
11:52Fire
11:55You do that too?
11:57You do that too?
11:57What?
11:58I'm older
11:59So I started it
12:00Okay well I better go
12:01Erica doesn't like it when I'm
12:04Anything
12:05I got that
12:06It's okay
12:07You're doing great
12:07Oh my god
12:09Thank you
12:11It's a beautiful view
12:13Well I am head of entertainment
12:16It's still a beautiful view
12:19That better not mean what it sounds like
12:21Rick
12:22The deal was six months
12:23Entertainment is Samantha's purview
12:25Not mine
12:26And I made a deal with you
12:27Not her
12:28I don't like this any more than you
12:29It doesn't make either of us look good
12:31But I have a way that you can still get that title
12:33Bring in a big client
12:34And the job is yours
12:35Oh that's a great idea Stuart
12:37But the only way I can do that
12:38Is with someone I already have a relationship with
12:41Which means poaching from Ted
12:42And we are precluded from doing that
12:44Do it anyway
12:45They're not going to sue us over one client
12:46I don't work that way
12:47If the shoe were on the other foot
12:48Ted would poach
12:49And you know it
12:50I don't care
12:50I'm not Ted
12:51I've got my issues with the way Ted operates more than anyone
12:54But if you want that promotion
12:56This is the way to get it
13:05Still think he's just a flawed liar?
13:07Hi Kevin
13:15It's bank records
13:16It's nothing
13:17Are you kidding me?
13:19Do you know what I had to do to get these?
13:21Look
13:21The man was stealing from his partner
13:24These are transactions
13:25There's a thousand explanations
13:26It doesn't prove anything
13:28We're not talking about proof
13:29We're talking about the truth
13:31Something you used to want to know
13:33You think that I don't want to know the truth?
13:36Look I don't know what you want
13:37But the Ted I used to run with
13:39We know this is evidence
13:40And you know damn well
13:42If you were prosecuting this
13:43You'd be jumping for joy
13:43To get your hands on it
13:44I'm not prosecuting him
13:45Well someone is
13:46She finds this
13:47Her opening statement's going to be
13:49If Lester's stealing money from Simon
13:51He damn sure'll kill him
13:52If he found out
13:53God damn it
13:54Why are you trying to convince me
13:55That he's guilty?
13:57I don't care if he's guilty
13:57Or not
13:58I'm following the trail
14:00So you don't get blindsided at trial
14:01Question is
14:02Why the hell are you trying to convince yourself
14:04He's innocent?
14:14This is not what we discussed
14:17On what basis are you
14:20Okay
14:23Fine
14:23Yeah
14:24I understand your position
14:27Leah
14:27What did you do?
14:29About what?
14:29The Dylan Pryor agreement
14:30I sent over the amendment like you asked
14:32Well they're not letting Dylan out
14:34Why would they suddenly do that?
14:35All I did was specify the end date of the indie
14:37And the start date of the Warner movie
14:40So that they couldn't wiggle out
14:42Like you said
14:45I told you to put the date of the Warner overall deal
14:48You told them she already had an actual role
14:50They already knew it
14:51It's public knowledge
14:52The deal was public knowledge
14:53That she had a specific movie was not
14:55I'm sorry I was just being thorough
14:57Never give the other side more information than they need
14:59You might as well have said
15:00If Warner Brothers wants to start their movie on time
15:02They either recast Dylan
15:03Or pay that clown a small fortune
15:05I get it
15:06But this is Dylan's friend
15:07She agreed to be accommodating
15:09Okay
15:09For future reference
15:10The writer is never the one calling the shots
15:12The guy with the money is
15:13Erica
15:14Leah
15:15Trouble in paradise?
15:16Leah
15:17I'm not here
15:17Never was
15:18Hi Rick
15:19We hate you
15:20What are you doing here Rick?
15:21Because I'm a little busy
15:22And you're a little don't work here anymore
15:24You know who wishes I still worked here?
15:25Dylan Pryor
15:26Excuse me?
15:27She called me earlier
15:28Wanted to see if I could handle a movie conflict
15:30Instead of you
15:30I told her I was prohibited from signing her
15:32Which you are
15:33And that you're an excellent attorney
15:34Which I am
15:35But then
15:36She wanted me to get Ted to handle it
15:37Instead of you
15:38And I thought
15:38Why get her Ted when I could just
15:41Give her me?
15:42So
15:43If you wouldn't mind
15:44Signing this simple waiver
15:46Allowing me to represent Dylan
15:48You think I'm going to give you
15:50The right to poach my client
15:51Like I was born yesterday
15:52I think I can fix her problem
15:54And you can't
15:54Well we're never going to find out
15:56Because I'm not getting drawn
15:57Into a contest with you
15:58That I've already won
15:58I thought I was talking to the Erica Rollins
16:01Who always said she's better than me
16:03I didn't realize I was talking to the one
16:04Who was afraid of me
16:06You think saying I'm afraid of you
16:08Is going to get you what you want?
16:10You know what I think?
16:12You've been dying to go one on one
16:14With me for a long time
16:17So let's get it on
16:20Give me the damn place
16:25But Ricky
16:27When you lose
16:28I don't want you coming back here
16:29Crying about how I kicked your ass
16:34It wasn't a hammer hand
16:35Who was it?
16:37Abrams?
16:37Or Brown?
16:38Smith
16:40Smith is no joke
16:41Meaning?
16:43Let's just say
16:44There's nothing that woman
16:45Won't do to win
16:47Listen we both know
16:49I overheard you downstairs
16:50Why is this case so important to you?
16:52The people that we
16:54Represent
16:56Aren't used to being told no
16:57And every so often
16:59They need a criminal attorney
17:00To bail them out
17:01If I can't show the town
17:03That my firm can still do that
17:05Every client that I have
17:07Will eventually leave
17:09And find someone who can't
17:10And that's why you need Lester to be innocent
17:12You need a win
17:13And the idea of getting a guilty man off
17:15Turns your stomach
17:16It's not just that
17:19Every instinct that I have
17:20Tells me that Lester Thompson
17:22Is not a murderer
17:25And if I can't trust my instincts
17:27That's never happened to you before
17:29It happened before
17:30And when it did
17:33I lost everything
17:35Ted
17:35You've been moody since he picked on you
17:37Admit it
17:38You're sensitive
17:39I'm not
17:41I'm not sensitive
17:42I just
17:42I don't like impersonators
17:44I think you don't like him
17:46Because you think he wants to sleep with me
17:47Samantha
17:48If that were true
17:49I wouldn't like any of your clients
17:51You don't like any of my clients
17:53Didn't you say that you were going to make me feel better
17:55After the show
17:57I did in fact say that
17:59When does that part start?
18:01Why don't you tell me
18:03Where it hurts?
18:04I mean it hurts
18:05From here all the way
18:06All the way down to there
18:08How about I start
18:11In the middle?
18:12No
18:12I think it would be a good idea
18:14If you started in the middle
18:20Wait
18:22I can't believe I'm going to say this
18:26I gotta go
18:27What?
18:28But we just got back
18:30I know
18:31I can't wait
18:35Teddy
18:35Where the hell are you?
18:36I went to Samantha's client's thing
18:38Our back's against the wall
18:39And you're at a show?
18:40I thought that we were dead in the water
18:41And that I had nothing
18:43Alright look
18:43I'm pulling the agents off right now
18:44Don't do that
18:45You told me that I needed a hall of fame move
18:47I got one
18:48I want you to keep the agents there
18:49And gather up all the tapes we have
18:51Of Billy's confessions
18:52And one more thing
18:53Who would have planted the bomb at Billy's?
18:55I don't need proof
18:56I just need to know
18:58It's gotta be Jimmy Patrial
19:00Okay
19:00Gather those tapes
19:01I'll see you in the morning
19:02Whoa
19:02Teddy
19:03What are you gonna do?
19:04Get us another witness
19:08Mr. Dodson
19:09Uh
19:10I don't have much time
19:11So
19:12Sure don't
19:13You managed to threaten Dylan Pryor's career
19:15And hold Warner Brothers hostage all in one day
19:17I thought Erica Rollins was handling Dylan
19:20She thinks she is
19:21But I'm here to tell you
19:22You're gonna release Dylan after four months
19:25Why would I do that
19:26When I need her for six
19:27Because you made a promise to Dylan
19:29And I'm not afraid to sue you
19:30To enforce that promise
19:32You'll lose that lawsuit
19:33Maybe I will
19:34But the headline will read
19:35You deal in bad faith
19:37How many movies are you gonna get made after that?
19:39You're accusing me of dealing in bad faith?
19:41You are the definition of bad faith
19:43There is no justification to hold Dylan
19:46For six months to shoot five scenes
19:48Oh you haven't heard
19:49Since you brought me something to read
19:52I have something for you
19:53You see we had Tina do a final pass on the script
19:57And it ended up pushing Dylan's scene count from five to forty
20:03Makes it a much better movie if you ask me
20:04But you know I'm just a money guy
20:15Erica can I talk to you?
20:16What is it Leah?
20:17I'm thinking something through
20:18Rick just sent over a new script for Dylan's film
20:21I know
20:22He sent it to me too
20:23It's very above board of him
20:25Dylan's scene count skyrocketed and now we're screwed
20:28Well did you read the script?
20:29Because I think there's a way we can work with Fred
20:31And everyone can get what they want
20:33What Fred wants is to hold Dylan hostage
20:35So Warner Brothers pays him to let her go
20:37Which they'll never do
20:38So what are we gonna do?
20:42We're not gonna do anything
20:44You're gonna set me a dinner with Fred
20:46Pick a nice place with a lot of people
20:47Tell him I have an offer from Warner Brothers
20:49But you just said they won't pay
20:51They won't
20:52Sometimes you gotta say whatever it takes to get him in a room
20:59So she says
21:01FBI! FBI! Go home!
21:05Jimmy Patrial
21:05You're under arrest
21:07Or they murder a Billy Esposito
21:11I got you now Pellegrini
21:13You're going down
21:17Call Saperstein
21:18Get him down there
21:21Jimmy we know you set the bomb off
21:22We got three witnesses
21:24They all put you there
21:25I was in the neighborhood
21:26A bomb went off
21:27So I left
21:28End of story
21:29Say we don't get you on the bomb
21:31We're gonna get you
21:32On the bomb
21:33Say that we don't
21:34Billy Esposito
21:35Says that you're Pellegrini's go-to hitman
21:37He has direct knowledge
21:39Of you killing
21:40Five guys
21:41That's life
21:43Anything you add went away
21:44When Billy went away
21:45You can't use it
21:46Ain't that right?
21:48100%
21:49One problem
21:50Billy
21:52Is right over there
21:53No way
21:54I saw that explosion
21:56Billy's dead
21:57Matter of fact
22:20Jimmy Patriel
22:20That scumbag
22:21Let me in there
22:22I'll show him how dead I am
22:23Relax Billy
22:24I'm not gonna let you kill a witness
22:25Besides
22:26You're once it I've had to tell
22:27Let me in there for ten minutes
22:28We'll see who comes out
22:29Just tell us what hit you did together
22:31And he'll get what's coming to him
22:34Alright the first hit I remember was
22:36August 98
22:37It was hot as hell
22:38He comes down in a sweatshirt
22:40I tell him he might as well have a sign
22:42I got a gun under here
22:45Here's the deal Jimmy
22:46I arrested you
22:47Right in front of Pellegrini
22:51He's gonna think that you talked
22:52Whether you do
22:54Whether you don't
22:55Makes you a dead man
22:56Or
22:57I put you
22:58In federal
22:59Protective custody
23:00Jimmy
23:01Don't say another word
23:02I can get you out of here
23:03What happens when you get out of here
23:04Because do not think
23:05For one second
23:07That he
23:07Is here for you
23:09Get the hell out of here
23:12Jimmy
23:13Think about what
23:13Now
23:20What do you need me to do
23:31Can I come in or
23:33You still hate me
23:35Can it be both?
23:41Sorry for coming at you so hard
23:44I'm sorry for putting up a wall
23:46You were kind of being an ass
23:48I had to do something
23:49You were coming at me like a bull
23:51Didn't I just apologize for that?
23:52I don't know
23:53I wasn't listening
24:02Kevin I didn't want to hear what you had to say
24:04Because I was afraid you might be right
24:07Well since we were coming clean
24:09I wasn't exactly truthful
24:12When I said I was okay
24:13Keeping a guilty man out of prison
24:15Because you were built to put them away
24:16Yeah I was
24:18Tell you what
24:21It comes right down to it
24:22And you are sure
24:24That he did it
24:25I will let you walk away
24:26What about you?
24:27You gonna walk away?
24:28I'll drive off that bridge when I get to it
24:32For now it's time for Lester to tell us
24:33What the hell is going on with these bank records
24:47Sorry I'm late
24:48I had a call to make
24:51So
24:53I heard you convince Warner Brothers
24:55To make a combination
24:56Simply by throwing a little money at the problem
24:58I convinced him to throw money at the problem alright
25:00I'm just not in your direction
25:02You said you had an offer for me
25:04I do
25:05Find a new star for your movie
25:06Because Dylan is out
25:07No she's not
25:08We have an agreement
25:09Oh now you care about agreements
25:12Look if you're about to say
25:13That I'm dealing in bad faith
25:15Rick Dotson already tried that
25:16Let me tell you something friend
25:17I ain't no Rick Dotson
25:19Dylan's original deal prohibits her
25:21From making another movie
25:22While under contract to you
25:23But there's nothing stopping her
25:25From performing promotions
25:26For the new Warner Brothers franchise
25:28They can't make her promote a movie
25:30She's not even gonna be in
25:31Here's a preliminary schedule
25:34As you can see the dates mildly overlap with yours
25:41This is our entire shoot
25:42Really?
25:43Let me see
25:45No
25:46No see here's a day
25:48And then here's another two days
25:50And then of course if you wanted to work on Thanksgiving
25:52We can make her available for that
25:53Although her mother's pumpkin pie is fantastic
25:56You're not gonna get away with this
25:58We'll sue you
25:59Do what you gotta do Fred
26:01But that phone call
26:02Was Warner Brothers confirming
26:04That they'll back up the money truck
26:05To litigate you into the ground
26:10Ten years
26:11Are you kidding me?
26:13You're lucky the DA's willing to offer you this
26:15Because your story doesn't add up
26:16I didn't murder Simon
26:17And I'm not taking any deal
26:19That puts me in prison
26:20Lester
26:20I'm looking at a man
26:21Whose bank records show
26:22That he was stealing money
26:23From his own partner
26:27Alright
26:28This isn't what it looks like
26:30No it looks like
26:30After you stole his money
26:32He wound up dead in your backyard
26:33From a gun that you own
26:34I explained that to you already
26:36That's not good enough
26:36What do you want me to say?
26:37About the truth you lying
26:39Hey don't look at him
26:40You're a cold blooded murderer
26:41And you've been giving us the run around
26:43And I'm sick
26:43Alright I stole the money
26:46Alright look
26:46A few months ago I found out
26:48Simon had funneled half a million dollars
26:49Out of the production
26:50Into his personal account
26:51So I started taking the money
26:53Out of his account
26:54And putting it into mine
26:56Lester
26:59Why are you just telling us this?
27:02Because I knew you would react
27:03Exactly the way you are right now
27:04I'm not buying any of this
27:05Neither will a jury
27:06What about the fact
27:07That I started paying it back?
27:08There's no record of that
27:09There is
27:10Every time I submitted
27:11The movie's expenses to the studio
27:13I kept some receipts
27:14Out of the stack
27:15So the studio got paid back
27:17By reimbursing you less money
27:18Than what they owed?
27:19I was trying to do the right thing
27:20I guess Robin Hood
27:21Is the good guy
27:22Robin Hood didn't kill old John
27:26Lester
27:27If there is anything else
27:29That you would like to tell us
27:31Now would be the time
27:34Simon didn't start losing it
27:36That night out of nowhere
27:37I told him I was on to him
27:39And he thought that
27:40If I could find out
27:41The studio would
27:42And it was only a matter of time
27:43Before he ended up in prison
27:44So that's when he lost his mind
27:46But I swear to you
27:48I did not murder him
27:51You good?
27:52Not yet
27:54But it's a start
28:03Dylan
28:04Hey, look
28:05I know we've had a minor setback
28:06But I
28:07Rick, it's okay
28:08I just came by
28:09To tell you in person
28:10That
28:10You stay with Erica
28:11Aren't you?
28:12I am
28:14She put Fred in his place
28:16And got me out of the Indy
28:18Look, I just wanted to say
28:19That I would have
28:20Really liked working together
28:21My first meeting with you
28:22Wasn't like my first meeting
28:23With any other lawyer
28:24You
28:26You really cared
28:26About what matters to me
28:28Well, you're not so bad yourself
28:31Not a lot of actresses
28:33Would come here
28:33To tell me that in person
28:34Well, I was just at Erica's
28:36And you're both in Century City
28:37So it was like a two minute walk
28:39You probably didn't need to hear that
28:40See, this is why I'm better
28:41When other people write my dialogue
28:44It was good
28:45You're a good writer
28:47It's like a romantic comedy
28:48With a tragic ending
28:50Okay, well
28:51Yeah
28:53Actually, Dylan
28:54Before you go
28:55Did you take a look at that rewrite?
28:57Because I might have an idea
29:08Did you use my client
29:09To trick one of your suspects?
29:15I said that he wanted to do it
29:17Of course he did
29:18He doesn't know what he's getting himself into
29:20And you do?
29:21I know you were in an explosion the other day
29:23And you won't tell me what happened
29:24You know what?
29:25I did what I had to do
29:26And I'm not going to apologize for it
29:28Well, there's a shocker
29:29You know what your problem is?
29:30You think just because you put bad guys away
29:32You can take advantage
29:33In every other aspect of your life
29:35I agree with everything that you just said
29:36Except for the part where that's a problem
29:39Don't use one of my clients again
29:41Okay, you know the truth is that
29:42I do think all those things
29:43I also think that you went to law school
29:45And instead of using it
29:47You're a glorified salesman
29:48You think you're not a salesman?
29:50You sell people all day long
29:51Yeah, but I do it to put the bad guys behind bars
29:55You know you're really not that different
29:57From your father after all
30:00That's...
30:01That's not fair
30:03He uses people for personal gain
30:05You use them for the greater good
30:06But you still...
30:07I don't use you
30:08You did today
30:09And you know what?
30:11I'm proud of being an entertainment lawyer
30:13I make people's dreams come true
30:15And if you don't respect it
30:16You can kiss my perfect ass
30:22I was wrong
30:25I will not do it again
30:29I'm sorry
30:31You bet you're sorry
30:35What would I do without you?
30:39You'd be lost
30:40And don't you ever forget it?
30:50Hey
30:51Looks like Lester's records check out
30:53Put most of the money back
30:54I'm not saying it's proof
30:55But it's not nothing
30:57Kevin, if this prosecutor finds out
30:59That he was stealing money
31:00She is not going to care
31:01If he put some of it back or not
31:03So what you're saying, um
31:05You won't cover it up?
31:06No
31:08Then what?
31:10Drive off that bridge when we get there
31:11You sure got us driving off a lot of bridges
31:14Yeah
31:14Just like the old days
31:18I remember this guy
31:20Great ball player
31:21What's his name?
31:23Harry
31:23Something like that, right?
31:25Harvey
31:26You know that
31:27I know I never liked him
31:29Why not?
31:29Because
31:31He's the only person I knew
31:33Cockier than you
31:34That's funny
31:35That's exactly why I liked him
31:37Yeah, plus he was too pretty
31:38Can't trust them pretty ones
31:40Are you saying I'm not pretty?
31:42She gotta ask
31:43Can't argue with you there
31:44Well, see why not
31:45You've been arguing with me
31:46About every other damn thing today
31:50Don't say it
31:51No, I haven't
31:59Uh-uh
32:00The deal was
32:01You don't come back crying
32:02That was the deal
32:03If I lost
32:06This is my firm's new agreement
32:07With Dylan
32:08I don't understand
32:09I got her what she wanted
32:10No, Erica
32:11You got her what she thought she wanted
32:13Movies like this rewrite
32:14That's where Dylan came from
32:15And I knew that
32:16Because I listened
32:17To her
32:18So after you took Fred
32:19To the woodshed
32:20I convinced Dylan
32:21To let me go back to him
32:22And make it so she could do both
32:23So you came here
32:24To rub my nose in it?
32:26You know I wouldn't do that
32:28Erica
32:28The reason we stopped doing
32:32What we used to do
32:34Is because you never respected
32:35The way I work
32:36Caring about my clients
32:38Does not make me
32:39Less of a killer than you
32:41It might even make me
32:42More of one
32:43Maybe you're right
32:46But Rick
32:46You have no idea
32:48Why we
32:50Stopped doing
32:51What we used to do
32:55What?
32:56I can't tell
32:57If you're lying to me
32:58Or yourself
33:19Stuart
33:21You were right
33:22I'm right about everything
33:23Can you be more specific?
33:31I guess you are willing to poach
33:34No I said I didn't work that way
33:35And I don't
33:36Erica signed a waiver
33:39You gave her an excuse
33:40To go head to head
33:41Didn't you?
33:41How did you know that?
33:42Are you kidding?
33:43I worked on the same floor
33:44As you two for years
33:45Eventually you were going to do
33:46One of two things
33:47They both begin with F
33:49I put my money on fight
33:50I put my money on fight
33:51Nothing is past you Stuart
33:55What was the other one?
33:56Philander
33:57Huh
33:58Technically it's a PH
33:59But it still has the F sound
34:04Hey
34:04If I wasn't right about the poaching
34:06What was I right about?
34:07If I can't deliver a big client
34:09I don't deserve that promotion
34:12That's not what I said
34:13I know
34:14That's what you meant
34:23What you doing up here?
34:25Since everyone left
34:26I like to come up here
34:27When I want to be alone
34:29So I hear we no longer represent
34:30Dylan Pryor
34:33Are you here to explain that one?
34:35Rick beat me
34:37Straight up
34:37After I let him bait me
34:38Into a fight I didn't need to have
34:41Erica
34:43Losing Dylan
34:43Hurts us
34:45Especially right now
34:46And I'm not going to sit here
34:48And pretend like I'm not pissed
34:51Is there a but in there
34:52Or are you just going to
34:53Leave it at that?
34:55Have you seen the picture of
34:57Ian Tenzel
34:58In my office?
35:00The one at the Lakers game?
35:02Everyone's seen it Ted
35:03In that point
35:05I was born a Knicks fan
35:08And I
35:08I never thought
35:10That
35:11Anything would change that
35:14Kobe Bryant changed that
35:16Sometimes
35:16He won
35:18Sometimes he lost
35:19I mean the kid was a rookie
35:21He shot four air balls in a row
35:22But he never backed down from a fight
35:24You got baited into signing a waiver
35:27Because you
35:29Are a competitor
35:31And I would rather
35:32You get baited into a fight
35:33Than back down from one
35:35In fact
35:35I wouldn't have it any other way
35:39Are you saying I'm
35:40Black Mamba 2.0?
35:42Easy does it
35:45Erica you have to learn from your mistakes
35:49And what we learned today
35:50Is that we will never
35:52Never underestimate Rick Dotson again
35:56Hey how did you hear about Dylan so fast anyway?
35:59I saw Rick and I asked Leah what he was doing in the office
36:02Hey by the way we got to keep Leah away from me
36:04Okay she's very
36:06I know I'm working on it
36:08She's not that bad once you get to know her
36:09Yeah I'll never know
36:20Erica
36:21Oh
36:22I'm so sorry
36:23Did you move the room?
36:24I was just leaving
36:25Why did you ask if I read the Dylan script earlier?
36:28Because it was great
36:30And I messed up earlier
36:32And I was looking for a way to fix it
36:34And the rewrite was the kind of movie
36:37That put Dylan on the map in the first place
36:38So I thought we could get everyone what they wanted
36:41Like you said before
36:42It was naive
36:43I won't suggest something like that again
36:45Maybe it was naive
36:46But if I'd listened to you
36:48Then we'd still have Dylan as a client
36:51Is this real?
36:53Are you complimenting me?
36:58I feel like hugging you
37:01It's getting stronger
37:02Oh
37:02Leah don't
37:03Oh my god it's happening
37:06It happened
37:09Okay that wasn't that bad
37:10Alright well I'm gonna leave
37:12While I'm ahead
37:13How did you know that the script was good?
37:16What do you mean?
37:17I read it
37:17Um
37:18I'm gonna tell you something
37:20And I don't need it
37:21Leaving this room
37:23You can't tell if a script is good or bad
37:25Because you're not a fan of movies or TV
37:30Then why become an entertainment lawyer?
37:31Because if you want to be part of the action in this town
37:34This is the business you need to be in
37:37The way I can tell something is good
37:39Is probably because
37:42I always wanted to write movies
37:44Oh well then why
37:46Because when you're a first generation Korean American
37:49You become a lawyer or a doctor
37:51Not a writer
37:54I'll tell you what
37:56I'll teach you to do what I do
37:59And you teach me about movies and TV
38:03How would you say deal?
38:05I'd just say deal
38:06Well we gotta jazz that up
38:09Kinda
38:10On your own time
38:11Oh yeah
38:17Deal
38:18It's a deal
38:20Deal
38:22Dealio
38:22Yeah that's the one
38:25Am I interrupting?
38:27No
38:30Did you happen to see we have a new client?
38:32A new star client
38:34Signed by Rick Dodson
38:37You want me to give him the title now don't you?
38:40The man did earn it
38:41He did
38:43You want to give him the good news or should I?
38:46Why don't you do it?
38:48You mind if I ask why so generous?
38:50Two reasons
38:51One like you said entertainment is what you do
38:53And two
38:54You were right
38:55Cutting Ted out was a huge thing
38:57I dropped it on you at the last minute
38:58And I never expressed how much I appreciate you taking my side given your history
39:04Hey
39:05You want a drink?
39:08It's why I got into law
39:09Drinks at work
39:10It's funny
39:11Here you are fighting for Rick
39:14When at the time you wanted it to be Erica Rollins that came over
39:18Not him
39:20What can I say?
39:21He killed it with Dylan Pryor
39:22Did you tell him that?
39:24He's getting ahead of entertainment
39:25I'm not going to glaze him on top of it
39:27What the hell is glazing?
39:30It's an expression
39:31From my son
39:34Basically
39:35Every time I give someone a compliment
39:37He uses it to make me feel bad about myself
39:39To be honest
39:40I'm not even sure I'm using it right
39:43Probably not
39:58I have to say
39:59You have done well for yourself
40:02In the private sector
40:04You looking to make a change?
40:05We could use some bodies around here
40:07Pass
40:07Then let me give you what you came here for
40:09I took that sorry plea offer to my client
40:14Pass
40:15Good, that deals off the table anyway
40:17You came all the way here to tell me that?
40:19I came to get a jump on my discovery obligations
40:21Turns out your client's wife
40:24Was sleeping with the man he murdered
40:28I don't know what you used to call it
40:30But down here at the local level
40:33We call it motive
40:47What are you doing here, Elizabeth?
40:49Amanda
40:50So nice to see you
40:51I forgot you work here
40:53I was just delivering a little message to Mr. Black
40:55In person, as I recall
40:56You only do that when you're gloating
40:58You are still sore about what happened to that client of yours
41:01What was his name again?
41:03You know damn well his name was Dante Everson
41:05You killed him
41:07Just as much as if you shivved him yourself
41:10Well, if you don't want to get your bleeding heart broken again
41:13I suggest you not get involved in the Lester Thompson case
41:17It's a loser
41:18Oh, I had no such intention
41:20But now that I see your smug face
41:22If Ted ever asks for my help
41:26I am gonna come running
41:54I'll be on you
41:55Bye
41:56Okay
