00:29under the influence and failed to properly stabilize the ramp i need to confirm your team
00:33seven days eight hours 32 minutes until the merger we can start our own firm lawrence and kingston
00:38who is this kingston i can't say you just said that you and olympia trust me olympia floated the
00:44idea of me staying maddie matlock and i would stay dead my father he's been playing us there is no
00:51dementia he knows the bank records you provided for howard markston and eternal glamour are fake
00:57he's been leading us down the wrong path he puts his study back there is no crime
01:06no
01:09senior doesn't get to disappear his crime not again obviously we were close
01:15otherwise he wouldn't have sent us off track with deborah palmer so we rebuild our case from
01:20the ground up everything we had before the fake financials we know what happened and when
01:25we've got expense reports and emails we'll cobble together a case in four days we have no other
01:33choice and if we don't end up with enough evidence i'll go on the news shows instagram tiktok youtube

02:01here's what we know is true april 6th 2010 your father called and instructed you to take the
02:08well brexa study from discovery and he said he arranged a fire drill so i could take it without
02:13swiping my key card no tracks while he was in australia with the well brexa head honchos and good old
02:19deborah palmer he took the company jet we know from the charter sheet they refueled in dallas once
02:25they got to sydney senior endeavor went to the opera box with dixie and her husband keith the head of
02:29the well brexa board dixie said she heard them talk about milton in milton massachusetts we got the
02:34journals of the scientist who conducted the well brexa study she wrote about a bag of cash she got to
02:39bury the
02:40study 350 000 delivered by the wolf that's the part we need to prove yep we have to establish a
02:48money
02:48trail between senior and the wolf you think agent gutierrez will still work with us well we could just
02:54bring her here to our show and tell i mean we need someone besides julian to testify that the study
03:02was
03:02taken you two focus on the money trail it's time for me to reconnect with an old friend
03:20morning sarah i saw you had an appointment this morning before court i will keep the case moving
03:25forward great thanks um and also wanted to apologize yesterday was exactly what i needed
03:34i reorganized my priorities and i don't know when or how but i became the kind of gen z squish
03:39that i
03:40used to mock but the old sarah's back and she's a 30 year old millennial sniper
03:47stop freeze oh go oh the senior partners from lamar and wilson and jacobs and more are about to
03:53the corner and you will not obstruct the view and of course this is the floor that houses most of
03:59the
03:59litigation and here is our new logo which will be officially unveiled at the closing
04:08oh dear oh that better not happen at the party it definitely will not
04:16this way did you see that oil and gas barb is a stone-cold bitch now that is who i
04:27need to be
04:27working for i'm gonna ask olympia for a recommendation
04:34did you find out who the reddit poster is since we last spoke five minutes ago no i don't need
04:39excuses
04:39i need the fuel truck driver i deed the airline buried the fact that there was another vehicle
04:44there probably to pin this on felix i wasn't finished chill out sorry the stress of the merger's
04:50been getting to me and you've also been calling since 5 a.m the post also mentioned an old dude
04:55in
04:55a safety vest who was yelling at the fuel truck driver a wing walker so i got employee records call
05:00felix and have him come in he can help us come through them i already did
05:12hey there emelyn
05:18emelyn she doesn't want to talk to you beat it use both feet
05:24i think there must be some mix-up i'm a friend of emelyn's from her former job hey there berry
05:32i know exactly who you are maddie madlock and you're not getting anywhere near her
05:42whoa big fella holster your hound i come bearing biscuits blueberry emelyn's favorite and yours hopefully
05:49too mr hank sherbinger and if you think baked goods are enough to make up for abandoning emelyn
05:57i know i've been distant but uh i have a good reason we know the reason
06:03you weren't a real friend to begin with emelyn was devastated after getting fired and did you come
06:09around with your biscuits then did you pick her up off the floor no you met her for one drink
06:15texted her a few times toasted and ghosted my grandson was going through a hard time emelyn
06:24i'm sorry please save it emelyn wants nothing to do with anyone from jacobson war the whole place is toxic
06:49hank volunteers at assisted living homes he cleans up trash at the beach that's so nice it's not nice
06:55nice would be finding dirt on his goody two shoes isn't there any other way we can get belvin to
07:01come
07:02forward that doesn't ruin her relationship don't you think if there were i'd take it hank's the gatekeeper
07:08i just feel bad we don't have time to feel bad we have 36 hours to get belvin to walk
07:14into the doj
07:15and testify that the document was taken how did it go with alfie he's angry we said no to joey
07:22he doesn't want to live in georgia well it's just a backup plan we're not going to jail nothing will
07:28go wrong i just have to keep focused hands on the wheel eyes straight ahead all for ellie
07:39what did you guys find we can put the wolf in dallas when senior's plane landed there to
07:44refuel on its way to australia well i thought he was working for a security firm based out of chicago
07:49back then he was but he was sent to dallas to consult for at&t we found a getty image
07:54of him
07:55at a corporate party so senior must have met him on the ground and handed off the cash to pay
08:00our
08:00scientists we just have to find a way to prove it did you figure out how to get around hank
08:05oh don't
08:06you worry about hank sherbinger he's going down and his little dog too oh check your email sarah and
08:14hunter spoke to felix and they tracked down our wing walker let's hope he can help our case
08:21oh felix is definitely not to blame eastridge air is scapegoating him to protect their bottom
08:26line well that just so happens to be our theory too because it's the truth i was really glad when
08:33you guys reached out i i assumed this avenue of investigation was shut down we were looking into
08:38a report about another truck at the gate eastridge air probably double booked the truck all they care
08:44about is cost cutting you know they make the flight attendants lose weight to reduce fuel costs
08:49every ounce counts that's what they say i'm gonna car blood before my next flight just to stick it to
08:55him yeah back to felix can you tell us exactly what happened with the fuel truck that day uh well
09:02i was
09:02working at gate charlie 12 our plane needed fuel uh but i saw the truck heading to charlie 14. which
09:09was felix's ramp yeah so i went after the driver to tell him he was in the wrong place
09:14he made a u-turn and almost hit your man's ramp in the process oh wait almost you said yeah
09:20i was
09:20screaming at the top of my lungs the driver heard me just in time to avoid a collision
09:26are you sure they didn't make the slightest connection positive i was literally under the ramp at the
09:33time i was getting dripped on it all drift on yeah from the bugs what bugs the listening devices
09:45eastridge probably nicked the hose when they wedged them in there they bugged the ramps the planes our wands
09:51the whole tarmac's crawling with bugs probably how they knew i was taking toilet paper
09:59they called it stealing they cited it as the reason for my termination but obviously
10:05it's because i was on to them well thank you virgil i think we got what we need yeah we
10:14should follow
10:15up on the drip from the bugs no the tilled cylinders are what controls the incline of the ramp they're
10:21filled with hydraulic fluid if they were leaking that could be the reason why the ramp collapsed
10:26the forensic engineer looked over every inch of that truck if there were a leak he would have seen it
10:30unless somebody went into the hangar where the ramp was being stored and fixed it before the forensic
10:35engineer could find it great idea draft a subpoena for the surveillance footage on my way
10:48look every ounce counts you're quoting virgil now seniors flight to australia had two different
10:55cargo weights one for the takeoff in new york and one for the takeoff in dallas the difference was
11:01nine pounds 11 ounces less in dallas now if you take the weight of your average duffel bag and that's
11:08just a thing you know i looked it up while you were talking about toilet paper and added to the
11:13weight
11:13of 350k and 100 bills guess how much it weighs nine pounds and 11 freaking ounces hot damn we are
11:24back on our money trail
11:32sarah got the subpoena in court's at 9 a.m and i know how to get the judge to say
11:37yes oh yeah yeah
11:40i just hate what this is doing to sarah and it's just sending her right back into her hard shell
11:45the sooner this ends the sooner she'll know why you're lying how is it coming with belvin
11:51except to break her heart make it seem like hank was making more than copies with his co-worker
11:57at the office supply store and when belvin's vulnerable i'll do my thing hopefully for the last time
12:07want a little wine i want a lot of wine you really think you'll find something in the senior partner
12:14slush fund client development fund is where they hide their strip club visits so why not their secret
12:21lunches where they hand off a duffel bag of cash you can't use your partner code to get in
12:28the wolf is tracking you i snagged leo henderson's that guy's a dick
12:39oh okay let's see
12:45it's generating i might get a dog oh i think a dog could be good for you and alfie i'm
12:53talking about
12:53how i re-approach emilyn i mean you think i should get a dog i'm about to become a national
12:59news story
13:00why do you think i suggested it who could hate a little old lady with a golden retriever did you
13:05just call me little oh it downloaded
13:10six steaks five whiskies and one tom collins extra cherries six people had lunch all five of the
13:18partners in charge and the wolf they must have made the decision together they all knew they all knew holy
13:30i just can't believe that the rock runs so deep like down to the floor of the ocean where you
13:35don't
13:35even know what kind of fishes live it's a horror show olympia vampire fish and viper fish there's
13:40the sea pigs and tube worms a what alfie had a marine biology phase well we need to get our
13:49hands
13:49on that jacob some more security footage from dallas prove that each viper fish was there that day
13:55you have access no that's only for partners in charge
14:02eva wasn't a partner in charge back in 2010 she was going through a gnarly divorce from senior
14:09she hates him and when she finds out that he lied about dementia reading her in is a big risk
14:18without risk there's no reward
14:22trademark that phrase pretty sure it's well known okay you know who that's making me think about
14:30no risk langston this is olympia just calling to say hey um i haven't uh returned your call
14:41because i heard that you're a player and i was just no i mean i was up i meant to
14:47say
14:56the rot runs deep edwin and it's not your senior it's the tom collins and and the tube worms are
15:06running at all everything i know i know let's just go to sleep so oh oh it's olympia
15:15oh maybe you shouldn't no give me give me give me okay olympia hey little one i want to call
15:24angie
15:25back you can't you can't okay okay all right good night olympia she will call you back in the morning
15:37when she i'm really drunk when she is no longer really drunk
15:45oh i i you know what when all this is over i i won't get like this anymore okay okay
15:55sweet dreams all right
15:58okay that's so sweet
16:15i made you a big greasy breakfast with a side of water and advil oh i i need all that
16:23but
16:23at half the volume oh i've never been run over by a herd of bison but i expect this is
16:29exactly what
16:30it feels like did i give you the headlines that all the partners in charge were in on removing the
16:40documents yes while laughing your head off oh god i'm so sorry like you used to with ellie
16:53that's true there's this laughing you had only with her and i hadn't heard it in so long
17:02i thought i probably never would again frankly and then last night i realized you left like that with
17:11olympia
17:14so how can i take that away
17:20what are you saying you practicing law again with her being maddie matlock
17:29she's you're you're lighter so if you did that for a few more years
17:35edwin but i am not staying dead
17:38well i should hope not and in fact i decided maddie matlock needs a boyfriend
17:47perhaps an irs agent she bumped into at the firm
17:51well i thought they had a little spark oh a little hmm
17:58morning hi darling good morning look i know you're worried about georgia no i wanted to apologize
18:06you guys have given up so much i can deal with georgia which probably won't happen anyway
18:13oh darling come here oh
18:21wish me luck in court and i really hope they can dim those lights
18:31miss matlock what exactly do you think this footage will show
18:36well your honor the defense has discovered the potential of a large-scale corporate cover-up
18:43can we lose the histrionics i can barely hear her they are not histrionics i i feel passionately
18:51about what this motion could mean for my client and i am trying to keep my blood pressure down
18:58we are not all 50 years old i'm 40. my mistake we have reason to believe that the truck's tilt
19:06cylinders were leaking at the time of the ramp collapse but they weren't when the forensic examiner
19:11arrived so we're thinking that someone from east ridge air went into that hangar and fixed them
19:18that is a wild accusation and contradicted by the record we have chain of custody logs showing no
19:24unauthorized access to the hangar two people went in there the examiner whose testimony we've heard
19:30and the security guard protecting the evidence hadn't heard from him in fact there is zero evidence
19:37in the record identifying the second person heck it could have been someone else entirely
19:43someone with heartburn slipping in there to take their pepcid
19:49your honor when miss barrett identified an ambiguity you let in her drug test
19:56all we're asking is that you do the same with this footage
20:01fair is fair i'll sign the subpoena courts adjourned
20:07thank you
20:27so tomorrow's going to be a busy day with the retirement merger signing thought we could have
20:31a drink toast to your career before we do that julian let's talk about the elephant in the room
20:38i do know
20:42i've been dying to try this place heard they have an excellent wedge
20:46you are not a lady who lunches neither am i let's skip the chit chat what's going on
20:54seniors faking his dementia
21:00yeah you know that you were unhappy i was power of attorney
21:07i just want to assure you that we're on the same team
21:11glad to hear it me too and since you brought champagne i'd like to raise a glass to the both
21:17of
21:17you two people i trust so deeply senior engineered it he and all the partners in charge met with the
21:26wolf
21:26in dallas your predecessor is long retired but the others they need to lose their licenses and face
21:32prosecution because they stole a study out of discovery that could have saved so many lives
21:41i'm just in shock it is shocking but it's also true and if it went down in the dallas office
21:48there
21:48would be security footage of everyone entering that building we place them all together and the
21:53doj can pick up the mantle and pressure wanted them to flip that's where you come in where's our waiter
22:00i
22:00need a drink as partner in charge you have the credentials to ask for that footage but we need it
22:07before the
22:08merger closes tomorrow can you get it ain't nobody gonna question you without question
22:17i have been hard on you in the past but i will never forget what you've done in my time
22:24of need
22:25of course dad anything don't drink hate to lose control chardonnay please tom collins extra cherries
22:49easy i've been looking for a trashy beet treat what's wrong nothing
23:04well
23:11now we both know that we both know how long have you known about me since i got senior alone
23:17the other
23:17day i told him i'd kill the merger if he didn't stop lying about his retirement and he told me
23:23why it had to go through said you guys were hunting and you agreed to protect him i agreed to
23:31survive him
23:35again why were you even in the room back then you weren't a partner in charge
23:42we had just settled our divorce and i don't know if you heard but it was slightly better
23:46then senior announced in front of the executive committee that dominic was retiring
23:51he was stepping down as the partner in charge of miami
23:55asked me if i wanted it i said yes
24:00that's when he started talking about removing a study from discovery
24:04and suddenly i understood howard wasn't promoting me he was implicating me you could have walked yeah i
24:14could have but change doesn't happen outside those rooms we need to be in them at what cost
24:20even freedom ain't free baby
24:26i have hated howard markston since april 5 2010 when he laid bare my ambitions and forced me to
24:35sacrifice my soul for them it can't be for nothing
24:42don't go to the doj
24:44and let him get away with it living the rest of his life in luxury old alone and irrelevant that'll
24:51be a prison for him and the others a rookery of albatrosses i have lamar and ostens ear trust
24:58me i hint at a scandal they cut the old guard loose then we rebuilt i get some power i
25:06give you a real
25:06social justice department not some marketing lying buried in the annual report and what if i say no
25:15i'm not going to rat you out but i am not going to help you either
25:21senior put the document back in that folder
25:25where's the crime
25:32coming
25:37emilyn please i just want to apologize to you and to hank could i speak with him please hank's at
25:44work
25:45oh no well i've always had worse time and then a broken watch
25:49could i get five minutes with you then and after that if you don't want to see me or
25:56butterscotch then i understand
26:03it was so hard after you left everyone knew how close we were i had eyes on me all the
26:11time
26:12and then when things finally calmed down the trouble with alfie started what trouble
26:20he got caught shoplifting i'm so sorry no i'm the only one here who should be sorry
26:29for toasting and ghosting like hank said
26:36once so much time had passed i got embarrassed
26:42and then a few days ago i was scratching butterscotch's little belly and i thought to myself
26:51it's never too late to come forward and do the right thing
26:57i really missed you
27:00i missed you so much and then when hank was talking about how hard it's been for you
27:09i narrowly broke my heart in two
27:13i'm not like you maddie i don't have a grandson never had kids all i've ever had was my job
27:22and when that and you went away
27:30i felt completely invisible
27:40and then the guy who always said after you at duncan asked my name
27:53oh emilyn
27:58hank seems terrific
28:02and i i hate i have to do this
28:13we watched the footage from east ridge air saw someone walk in at first we thought he was
28:19tampering with the tilt cylinders but then the guy got hot took off his jacket
28:25and he was wearing a port authority pd uniform
28:29the forensic engineer all official i'm so sorry i wish i had better news
28:37but we have to be realistic
28:40so i reached out to the d.a to talk about a plea
28:44what did the d.a offer sorry i'm late
28:49four years
28:52no that's double what they offered six months ago
28:55i know and i know it's hard to contemplate
28:58but given where we are at i have to advise you to take the deal
29:05with the drug test and we needed to feed the jury a plausible alternate theory and ours didn't pan out
29:11i'll take the stand explain it and then if they don't believe you and you lose your job
29:16no we we can't give up not after everything we've gone through everything we've sacrificed
29:23what you are talking about is known as the fallacy of sunk costs
29:29it is a psychological trap continuing to do something that won't work because you've invested so much time
29:36money effort whatever it is it's why people throw good money after bad
29:43why we dig in and don't look around at the landscape and evaluate the best path forward
29:51given all the circumstances
29:54if you take the plea the next four years will feel impossible but you will be there for your son's
30:01first
30:01day of kindergarten you gamble on the jury and you might not be home until he is in high school
30:09can i think it over of course take the night
30:15we're here if you have any questions
30:27how'd it go with belvin i couldn't do it what i was sitting there looking at emelyn and
30:37she seemed so happy yeah but we need her to testify we are so close you can explain later or
30:47it's like
30:47you just said the sunk cost fallacy you know throwing good money after bad
30:54wait what do you mean i mean i'm looking at the landscape and maybe it's time to lay down the
31:00sword
31:02senior's retiring you take eva's deal she helps push out the other partners junior doesn't have to
31:09lose his license you get a great big old social justice department you do great work
31:16or rather we can do great work edwin agreed maddie matlock for a couple more years
31:23he did yes he did i can stay here i can date my husband no media scrutiny
31:34but what about ellie i mean you're doing it for her
31:41you know i think i was looking at it all wrong
31:46i think ellie led me here
31:51to you
31:58when we first met i was only looking at the end of my life and now there's just so much
32:05possibility
32:08that you really think you could walk away from what the whole thing we don't have anything
32:18i can still come forward i could i could wear a wire well you could but what if it doesn't
32:24work
32:25and you and jail doesn't bring my daughter back
32:30so
32:33so so you're okay letting go
32:37and in other news hell just froze over
32:44wait oh my god
32:46i think i know why the ramp collapsed
32:59alvaro welcome back and welcome to the fascinating world of tilt cylinders
33:04you know about those yes ma'am all our ramp trucks have them and are those tilt cylinders are they
33:10filled with the specialized hydraulic fluid they are and does that hydraulic fluid go bad it degrades
33:17over time which is why we replace it and how often would that be used to be every six months
33:24but east ridge changed it to annually to save money huh is that a problem it technically meets
33:32regulations but as the base oils break down the water content goes up which could be problematic in
33:37severe weather conditions well it was six below with windchill the day of the accident would you call that
33:44severe extremely your honor with your permission we have a little demonstration for the jury
34:01can you explain what you got there a tilt cylinder after you called me last night i went to the
34:06airport and took one of these off our ramps and then what you do with it brought it home set
34:11my freezer
34:12that's in the garage six below and left it in there overnight this morning
34:22as entertaining as this is our forensic engineer showed no evidence of frozen fluid
34:27you want to tell him why because it had already melted the hanger where the truck was overnight
34:33is climate controlled so toasty the forensic engineer had to take off his parka but outside the liquid in
34:42the cylinders froze
34:45ms pope stepped out the fluid cracked and the ramp fell
34:56margot pope wasn't killed by my client's actions she was killed by a corporation disregarding safety
35:06by yet another greedy big wig putting profits ahead of people
35:36if it isn't the man of the hour
35:37my luck been a while
35:40at your retirement speech
35:42no sneak peeks
35:46how does it feel to get to the finish line
35:52you hunt that lock
35:54can't say i do
35:56there's this moment
35:58you got the deer in your sight
36:00shoot him clean in the eye as he falls
36:03the earth stands still
36:05you won
36:07feels like i killed a ten point trophy back
36:12i can only look forward to that feeling
