Transcript

00:00:02Ten years, zero losses.

00:00:04Throughout your whole career, there was not a single case that she could not win.

00:00:09Let's give a warm round of applause to the Black Widow of the legal world, Vicky Sterling.

00:00:17Not only God would present to you the truth in this world.

00:00:20As far as I'm concerned, a lawyer should do whatever it takes to win the case.

00:00:28No, please, no, no, please, no, please, no, please, no, please, no, please, no, please, no.

00:00:37Dad?

00:00:39Dad, your timing really sucks.

00:00:42I was just...

00:00:45Idiot!

00:00:46Your whole case is hanging by a thread and you pull this shit with my secretary?

00:00:52Are you trying to spend the rest of your life in jail?

00:00:57Dad, you're the real estate king of the East Coast.

00:01:00That bitch that's trying to fucking sue me, no money, no power, turning over the case for you is a

00:01:06piece of cake.

00:01:07That smug little attitude is exactly why the whole world is on her side right now.

00:01:16Mark, I managed to get Vicky Sterling a sign to your case.

00:01:20Sterling?

00:01:21The Black Widow?

00:01:22That's right.

00:01:24And that's why today you're going to go down to the courthouse at 4 p.m.

00:01:28and you're going to keep your head down and you're going to keep your mouth shut

00:01:31and you're not going to do anything to piss Miss Sterling off.

00:01:36Yeah.

00:01:37Dad.

00:01:37I got it.

00:01:39Repeat it.

00:01:41You're not going to do anything to piss Vicky Sterling off

00:01:44or you're going to spend the rest of your fucking life in jail.

00:01:49Okay.

00:01:50I'm not going to miss Sterling off so I don't spend the rest of my life in jail.

00:01:57Because if you fuck up again,

00:02:00I won't be able to do anything else to help you anymore.

00:02:05But I thought Sterling didn't take cases easily.

00:02:08How have you talked her into this?

00:02:10Her youngest son has ALS

00:02:12and I'm the only one who can get a hold of her special medication.

00:02:16And

00:02:17and I gave her the Deep Blue Heart.

00:02:21The Deep Blue Heart?

00:02:23That's the Moretti family heirloom.

00:02:29So this is the legendary Deep Blue Heart.

00:02:32Mom, this birthday present is way too expensive.

00:02:35Did you take on some dangerous case again?

00:02:37Don't worry about me, sweetheart.

00:02:39Today is your 18th birthday.

00:02:41Your only job today is to enjoy the surprise.

00:02:44Mom,

00:02:45you don't have to work yourself to death for me and my brother.

00:02:48We just want you to relax a little.

00:02:50Yeah, ma, ma.

00:02:52All of those dangerous cases,

00:02:53you don't have to take them.

00:02:55Oh, you silly kids.

00:02:57For you two,

00:02:58I really don't mind a bit of exhaustion.

00:03:00Ma'am,

00:03:01Maradi's hearing starts in two hours.

00:03:03We should head out.

00:03:03All right, got it.

00:03:05Okay, my darlings,

00:03:06I gotta go.

00:03:07Bye.

00:03:08Bye.

00:03:09Bye, Mom.

00:03:11Jeez,

00:03:12don't worry.

00:03:12Let me take some pictures for you.

00:03:15Okay.

00:03:21Boss,

00:03:22relax.

00:03:22Mr. Harrison locked in Sterling for you, right?

00:03:25With her in your case,

00:03:26you are untouchable.

00:03:27Untouchable?

00:03:27The whole internet is watching my little scandal.

00:03:30My dad's so pissed he knew he skinned me alive.

00:03:32Fuck it, let's eat.

00:03:33Wow, it's so beautiful.

00:03:39Well, well.

00:03:40Looks like the paparazzi these days are fearless.

00:03:45What are you?

00:03:46What?

00:03:47What?

00:03:52Oh, look.

00:03:54A cripple.

00:03:58You got guts, kid.

00:04:00Follow me in here for this shot?

00:04:01Get off me.

00:04:03I let you little paparazzi rats run wild for too long.

00:04:06No, sir, sir.

00:04:07You've got it all wrong.

00:04:09He wasn't taking photos of you.

00:04:11He was taking photos for me.

00:04:12Look.

00:04:15If you don't believe me,

00:04:16just check for yourself.

00:04:23Well, look here.

00:04:25I'm misunderstanding.

00:04:27Here.

00:04:28Let me apologize.

00:04:33Those dead legs are an eyesore.

00:04:36This place should put up a sign.

00:04:38No cripples, no strays.

00:04:41Come on.

00:04:42We're eating somewhere else.

00:04:46Sir, you owe me an apology.

00:04:54What did you just say?

00:04:55I said you should apologize to me.

00:05:07Sure.

00:05:18You bastards, what are you doing?

00:05:21Sorry, sweetheart.

00:05:22That's just how I apologize.

00:05:24Show him we mean it.

00:05:26No, no.

00:05:27Stop it.

00:05:28Stop it, you jerk.

00:05:29Stop.

00:05:30Stop it, you jerk.

00:05:31Stop it.

00:05:58Mom, Mom, Mom, we're at Sky Realm Restaurant.

00:06:09We want justice! We want justice! We want justice!

00:06:19Mr. Sterling, finally.

00:06:21These brain-dead peasants are trying to destroy my son's future.

00:06:25Mr. Sterling, here's the materialism of this case.

00:06:29About your son's medication, the experimental treatment, I've arranged everything.

00:06:35Well, as long as your son is innocent, I guarantee a whim.

00:06:38Innocent? Sure.

00:06:40I'm going to head inside.

00:06:47Wait. My kids are in trouble and I need to get to Lexington Avenue now.

00:06:51Um, you go ahead and prep for the hearing and I'll be back before it starts.

00:06:55Yes, ma'am.

00:06:57Oh, sweetheart. You're just my type.

00:07:02Let go of me, you animal.

00:07:04Get out of my hands, Sterling.

00:07:11Stop.

00:07:15Is that the deep blue heart?

00:07:18Don't tell me they're connected to Sterling's.

00:07:25Isn't it the blue deep heart that your dad gave Sterling?

00:07:30Where did you get this?

00:07:32Give it back. My mom gave that to me.

00:07:34You're lying. The heart of the deep is the Moretti family heirloom.

00:07:37Your kind could never afford it. This must be a thing.

00:07:40So that's the story.

00:07:42Sweetheart, there's no point in wearing cheap replicas.

00:07:44But if you play nice with me, I can buy you a real one.

00:07:47Dream on, scum.

00:07:49You still don't get it!

00:07:53You bastard!

00:07:55Let go of my sister!

00:08:03Seems like the first time wasn't enough.

00:08:05Don't hold back.

00:08:06No, no, no, no, please stop!

00:08:07His condition is serious. He won't survive it.

00:08:11What's that, a little beauty?

00:08:13It's your birthday.

00:08:18I'll tell you what.

00:08:20I'll let the cripple go.

00:08:22If you get down on your knees,

00:08:24and lick my shoe clean.

00:08:28Happy birthday.

00:08:34Why isn't she picking up?

00:08:38How much longer?

00:08:39Cross this intersection, and we'll be right there, man.

00:08:43What are you waiting for, sweetheart? Go on.

00:08:47You're insane!

00:08:48I have legal rights! You can't just do this!

00:08:51Legal rights?

00:08:52Tell her who I am.

00:08:54Boss is the only son of Moretti family.

00:08:56East Coast real estate royalty.

00:08:57If he snaps his fingers,

00:08:59the best lawyers in the country will rewrite the law for him.

00:09:02Are you ready, Finn?

00:09:03You hear that, sweetheart?

00:09:05You want to keep lecturing me about the law?

00:09:07I wish I had another little chat with your crippled brother.

00:09:12No, no, no, no, I...

00:09:15I'll do it.

00:09:17That's more like it.

00:09:18Go on.

00:09:19No, Tara.

00:09:21No, Tara.

00:09:21No, Paul.

00:09:22I won't let them hurt you.

00:09:24Lick it.

00:09:25I want to see your face in the reflection.

00:09:27Lick it.

00:09:55Good little dog.

00:09:59I did what you asked.

00:10:00Now let us go.

00:10:02Go?

00:10:02Who said I was done playing?

00:10:04What do you mean?

00:10:07I changed my mind.

00:10:09Problem?

00:10:10Only your kind.

00:10:12Stick to rules and promises.

00:10:14I was born with the privilege to break them.

00:10:17Look at you.

00:10:18You're gorgeous.

00:10:20From the first time you got down on your knees and licked my shoe,

00:10:23I could barely hold myself back.

00:10:25Don't come any closer!

00:10:26Let go of my sister.

00:10:28Let go of my sister.

00:10:29Get the fuck off me!

00:10:31You like it down there?

00:10:33Put him somewhere with a better view.

00:10:35No.

00:10:40Watch closely cripple while your pretty sister begs under me.

00:10:46Tara!

00:10:48You bastards!

00:10:51If you touch me, I swear I don't care who you are, I'll sue you!

00:10:55Oh yeah, really?

00:10:56That's what the last bitch said.

00:10:58But with attorney Sterling protecting me, I'm untouchable.

00:11:02Sterling?

00:11:04My mum would never defend someone like you.

00:11:06You're lying!

00:11:07What?

00:11:08Sterling is your mother.

00:11:10Do you really want to lie to my face right now?

00:11:13I gotta think.

00:11:15What punishment fits you best?

00:11:19No!

00:11:21Sarah!

00:11:22Sarah!

00:11:23Sarah!

00:11:23No!

00:11:24It's Easter!

00:11:28No!

00:11:30No!

00:11:31Don't thank her!

00:11:34Get off my daughter!

00:11:42Get off my daughter!

00:11:44Get off my daughter!

00:11:45Mom!

00:11:48Mom!

00:11:49You're finally here.

00:11:50Please help me.

00:11:51Mom!

00:11:56Move!

00:11:57No.

00:11:58I don't want to.

00:11:59I'm not done having fun yet.

00:12:01I'm warning you.

00:12:02You've already committed disturbing the peace and intentional assault

00:12:05and if you don't fucking stop now, I'm going to make sure you rot in prison for life.

00:12:09Look at you, Grandma.

00:12:10You want to sue me?

00:12:12What a shame.

00:12:13There's so many people lining up to sue me, they're going to need a ticket system.

00:12:17I'll admit, you've still got it.

00:12:20Let me take care of you.

00:12:22Get back!

00:12:23Or I'm going to submit this video into evidence against you.

00:12:25Evidence?

00:12:26Let me fill you in.

00:12:28In this world, power and status rule.

00:12:30I can buy off judges.

00:12:31I can fake evidence.

00:12:33Any videos you have won't lay a finger on me.

00:12:36You have absolutely no respect for the law.

00:12:38Respect for the law?

00:12:40Adorable.

00:12:48Our boss is only son of Moretti family in New York.

00:12:51He is law.

00:12:54Moretti?

00:12:55He's a defendant in the rape case.

00:12:57I'll give you one last chance to do as I say.

00:13:00Maybe I won't make you suffer so much when you die.

00:13:03You're the one who's going to die.

00:13:08Here's my ID, Martin Moretti.

00:13:10Look closely.

00:13:11I'm Vicki Sterling, your defense lawyer.

00:13:17You think I'm going to believe you're a lawyer with this piece of junk?

00:13:23Fine.

00:13:24If you don't want to read the ID, you can look me up online.

00:13:27Oh, yeah?

00:13:27I look you up online and then what?

00:13:29On the internet?

00:13:30I'm a world-famous philanthropist.

00:13:32Kind-hearted environmentalist.

00:13:35You are beyond saving.

00:13:37I really am, Vicki Sterling.

00:13:38You think I'm an idiot?

00:13:40My hearing is in less than an hour.

00:13:42The real Sterling would not show up here instead of the courthouse.

00:13:44Yeah.

00:13:45By now, Sterling should be prepping in court.

00:13:48Not hanging out here.

00:13:49She's totally fake.

00:13:51You really do have a death wish.

00:13:54Beat him.

00:13:55No!

00:13:58No!

00:14:00No!

00:14:06Mark Moretti!

00:14:07No, I know for a fact you weren't framed!

00:14:09You're the real rapist!

00:14:12You're addicted to this world.

00:14:14My father, tear your lies to shreds!

00:14:22Hey, Dad.

00:14:24Hey, you little brat.

00:14:26You out there causing trouble again?

00:14:27Of course not.

00:14:29Hey, did Sterling arrive at court yet?

00:14:34Hey, did Sterling arrive at court yet?

00:14:36I already personally greeted her at the courthouse.

00:14:40Get here now!

00:14:41And keep your mouth shut!

00:14:43And do not upset Sterling!

00:14:45Yeah, yeah, Dad.

00:14:46I got it.

00:14:48You hear that?

00:14:49The real Sterling is at the courthouse.

00:14:52I'm heading to get my acquittal.

00:14:56While I'm gone, make sure this crazy bitch gets handled properly.

00:15:00Yes, boss.

00:15:00We'll make her feel satisfied.

00:15:04Get off me!

00:15:06No!

00:15:08Mom!

00:15:15You monster.

00:15:17Today, you paid for what you did.

00:15:21You hear that?

00:15:23My defense attorney, Sterling.

00:15:24You're the one going down.

00:15:26Sterling?

00:15:27Undefeatable attorney.

00:15:31Why?

00:15:32Why?

00:15:32Why do people like you always walk free?

00:15:35Quit whining.

00:15:37After today, you go from victim to gold digging love.

00:15:41You framed them already.

00:15:42People will spit at you.

00:15:43Order.

00:15:44Defense counsel, please enter.

00:15:45Ready?

00:15:46I'll walk free and you, you'll wish we'd have even born.

00:15:49Defense counsel, please enter.

00:15:51God, please.

00:15:53Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't.

00:15:56What the hell?

00:15:58Sterling's not already.

00:15:59Attorney Vicki Sterling has arrived.

00:16:11No way.

00:16:12It's her.

00:16:20That really is Miss Sterling.

00:16:21But how is she hurt so badly?

00:16:23Miss Sterling?

00:16:24Who did this to you?

00:16:25Who did this to me?

00:16:27Mr. Moretti.

00:16:28Don't you already know?

00:16:29Well, rest assured, Miss Sterling, I will find out who's ever done this and I will send

00:16:34them to hell.

00:16:35No need.

00:16:36I'll be delivering his judgment myself.

00:16:39Mom!

00:16:40Mom!

00:16:41Mom!

00:16:42Mom!

00:16:43Mom!

00:16:49Mom!

00:16:50Mom!

00:16:51Mom!

00:16:53Mom!

00:16:55Mom!

00:16:56Mom!

00:16:58Oh, Sarah, God, I should have protected you sooner.

00:17:03No, Mom.

00:17:04It's him.

00:17:05He's a monster.

00:17:06Mom, but you're, you're the best lawyer.

00:17:10You should put him in jail.

00:17:13I will.

00:17:14I will.

00:17:14I promise I will.

00:17:16Officer, can you please take my children to the hospital?

00:17:18There's something important I need to do first.

00:17:28William, get every document you can on the plaintiff.

00:17:31I've made up my mind.

00:17:32I'm dropping them a ready case.

00:17:35Kids, I swear I'll make that devil pay.

00:17:38Justice will be served for all of us.

00:17:40I can't believe Sterling's defending a rapist.

00:17:43She's the undefeated black widow.

00:17:45That poor girl.

00:17:45I'm not surprised.

00:17:47This is when she care about justice.

00:17:50Why?

00:17:51Why does he get to hurt people and walk free and suffer every day?

00:17:56God, it's not fair.

00:17:58You watch your mouth.

00:18:00My son's innocent and you're trying to frame him?

00:18:04Sterling, pay no attention to her lies.

00:18:06I don't blindly believe people's stories.

00:18:10I believe in the law and the truth.

00:18:12Well, sure.

00:18:13And, Miss Sterling, if you would decide, I'm sure the truth will prevail in clearing his name.

00:18:19The plaintiff's attorney may now enter.

00:18:22Oh, God.

00:18:23Sterling's reputation scared the lawyer off.

00:18:25Hear that?

00:18:26Your pathetic lawyer bailed.

00:18:28You're going down.

00:18:33Maybe I shouldn't have just spoken up.

00:18:35Going against Morettis.

00:18:37How could I not expect to pay the price?

00:18:40So stupid.

00:18:44Your Honor, in this trial, I will now be defending the plaintiff, Miss Lucy Carter.

00:18:52What?

00:18:55Your Honor, in this trial, I will now be defending the plaintiff, Miss Lucy Carter.

00:19:02What?

00:19:04Miss Sterling?

00:19:05You're supposed to be representing my son.

00:19:07What are you doing?

00:19:07Isn't Sterling known for defending the rich and powerful?

00:19:10Why would she help a girl like that?

00:19:11Exactly.

00:19:12Sterling charges millions a case.

00:19:13How could the plaintiff possibly afford her?

00:19:16Miss Sterling, I don't have that kind of money.

00:19:18I can't pay you.

00:19:19No need to.

00:19:20I'm not going to charge you a cent.

00:19:22And don't worry.

00:19:23We will win.

00:19:25Weki, are you sure you wish to withdraw as defense counsel and instead?

00:19:31Yes, Your Honor.

00:19:32I am certain.

00:19:33Don't forget.

00:19:34I'm the only one that can do this.

00:19:36You're ALS.

00:19:37Consoliner.

00:19:39Even so, I will not bend the law to defend a monster.

00:19:45Don't be afraid.

00:19:46I know justice can be slow sometimes, but it never really disappears.

00:19:51Today, the Devil's Day will end.

00:19:54Mark Moretti, final call.

00:19:56Do you have an alternate counsel?

00:19:58If not, the trial proceeds immediately.

00:20:01Dad, do you think I had some kind of backup plan?

00:20:04I don't have anyone else other than Miss Sterling.

00:20:07Oh God, why would she betray us now?

00:20:10Who did this to me?

00:20:12Mr. Moretti, don't you already know?

00:20:15Oh God, what did you do?

00:20:19Tell me, what did you do?

00:20:24What did you do?

00:20:26I...

00:20:27I hit her kids.

00:20:29And...

00:20:30What?

00:20:31I asked the guys to...

00:20:34Assault them.

00:20:35Drainless, you idiot!

00:20:37I should have left you chained up in your room!

00:20:40Dad, what do we do now?

00:20:43Okay.

00:20:44Okay.

00:20:45Okay.

00:20:46You're gonna go apologize to her.

00:20:48I'll handle the rest.

00:20:50Go!

00:20:52Please, Miss Sterling, please.

00:20:55I'm sorry.

00:20:56I...

00:20:57I didn't know it was you.

00:20:58I didn't know it was your kids.

00:21:00Please.

00:21:01It's a misunderstanding.

00:21:03Oh, so it would have been okay if it were someone else's children.

00:21:07It only matters because they happen to be mine?

00:21:09So any children would be okay to be humiliated and violently assaulted that way?

00:21:17I...

00:21:18I...

00:21:18Miss Sterling.

00:21:20Mark is very sorry.

00:21:22And if you were to continue representing him, I could add another $10 million to your fee.

00:21:29The reason that I have an undefeated record is because I actually respect due process.

00:21:36Mark Moretti is on the opposite side of justice.

00:21:38And I will not defend a monster beyond saving.

00:21:43Mark Moretti, final call.

00:21:45Do you have an alternate counsel?

00:21:46If not, the trial proceeds immediately.

00:21:49Dad, I can't win this without a lawyer.

00:21:53Defense counsel Vera Cross, now appearing.

00:22:03The final counsel head.

00:22:03This is the new lawyer.

00:22:05I thought you didn't have a backup.

00:22:06Cross came to me before hearing, she said that Sterling might betray us.

00:22:11She's offered to take your case.

00:22:15What?

00:22:16Your withdrawing from Mark Moretti's defense?

00:22:18All right, I'll switch gears and prep for the printer's files then.

00:22:21Miss Crossing, what are you doing there?

00:22:23I came to deliver the defense documents for Miss Sterling.

00:22:27No need.

00:22:27destroy them.

00:22:36You're telling me Sterling's dropping

00:22:37my son's case to defend that girl.

00:22:40Why would I believe you?

00:22:40I swear to God, it's true.

00:22:43Sterling is known for her reputation.

00:22:45Why would she suddenly flip?

00:22:47Mr. Murray, there's still time to change

00:22:49councils. If you hire me now,

00:22:51I promise you your son will walk out of here

00:22:53untouched.

00:22:57You, an attorney

00:22:58who's never handled a case alone.

00:23:00Why would I put my son's life in your hands?

00:23:03In court, Sterling's

00:23:04definitely a problem. But what about

00:23:06outside of court? If we can't

00:23:08get your son acquitted for now,

00:23:10we can get rid of her permanently.

00:23:15Your Honor,

00:23:16Defense Attorney Vera Cross

00:23:18appearing for the defendant.

00:23:19Isn't she the junior student of Sterling?

00:23:22Why would she go against her own mentor?

00:23:24Vera, whatever

00:23:25you're doing, stop now.

00:23:27Don't defend Mark Moretti.

00:23:29Sterling, did I hear that correctly?

00:23:31You're trying to stop your own

00:23:33student from taking on a case?

00:23:35That's edging dangerously close to a

00:23:37bar of ethics violation.

00:23:38No, he's in the middle of a media

00:23:40firestorm. And if you attach yourself to him,

00:23:43you're going to burn down with him.

00:23:45This is your first solo trial.

00:23:47It's going to define your entire career.

00:23:49Think carefully.

00:23:51Save your double standards.

00:23:52You've taken on cases much

00:23:54healthier than this one.

00:23:55Why do you get fame and fortune

00:23:57when I don't even get a right to

00:23:58represent a client?

00:24:00Vera, enough!

00:24:02You taught me that winning

00:24:03is everything.

00:24:05And today,

00:24:06I'll be the one to break

00:24:07your perfect...

00:24:10No one betrays the Morettis without

00:24:12paying a price.

00:24:14You're finished in New York.

00:24:16Both attorneys are here.

00:24:18I hereby announce the court is in session.

00:24:24Plaintiff's counsel, you may present

00:24:26your case.

00:24:28Your Honor, on August 2nd, my client went to the

00:24:32Dark Forest Bar with her friend.

00:24:34All of Sterling's defense strategies, right here.

00:24:37She only had 30 minutes to prepare for the plaintiff.

00:24:40This time, she's walking straight into defeat.

00:24:43They were there, enjoying themselves that evening.

00:24:45Unfortunately, Mark Moretti was there too.

00:24:47Known in the neighborhood for pervading upon

00:24:49vulnerable women.

00:24:51And that is the total events were counted

00:24:53about that night.

00:24:54And proves that Mark Moretti

00:24:56unquestionably committed rape.

00:24:59Defense counsel,

00:25:01you claim your client is innocent.

00:25:03Yes, Your Honor.

00:25:08Contained in this USB

00:25:10are photographs that prove my client's innocence.

00:25:13I request permission to display them

00:25:15before the court.

00:25:21Files are verified.

00:25:23Permission granted.

00:25:26These images make one thing clear.

00:25:28Their sexual relationship was consensual.

00:25:31And yet, the plaintiff waited three days

00:25:33to report anything.

00:25:34A delay that points directly to leverage.

00:25:37And when that failed,

00:25:39retaliation.

00:25:43Those, those are the exact exhibits

00:25:45I prepared for Mark's defense.

00:25:47No wonder Vera sounded so confident.

00:25:49She's weaponizing my own strategy against me.

00:25:52My lawyer's right.

00:25:54Me and Lucy were dating.

00:25:55It was consensual.

00:25:56And then, one day,

00:25:58she found out I was the Moretti heir.

00:25:59She tried to blackmail me.

00:26:01Said if I didn't pay her $10 million,

00:26:03she'd go to the police

00:26:05and ruin my name.

00:26:06Your Honor,

00:26:07the defense will be filing for

00:26:09countersuits

00:26:09for extortion and defamation.

00:26:15Were we wrong all along?

00:26:17Is she really just a gold digger

00:26:18framing a rich kid?

00:26:19Threatening him and then reporting him?

00:26:21This is disgusting.

00:26:22No, no, I didn't.

00:26:24These photos are not mine.

00:26:26Please, Miss Sterling.

00:26:31Sterling, these are the material

00:26:32you spent a whole week constructing.

00:26:34And you think you can beat me

00:26:35with 30 minutes of prep?

00:26:37Impossible.

00:26:39Guess Sterling isn't so legendary after all.

00:26:41Real Evan shut her up.

00:26:43Yeah, all that righteousness earlier

00:26:45was clearly for show.

00:26:47Order!

00:26:48The defense counsel's evidence stands.

00:26:51Plaintiff's counsel,

00:26:52if you cannot refute it,

00:26:53we will recess.

00:26:55It's over, Sterling.

00:26:57Your perfect record ends with me.

00:26:59From today on,

00:27:00I become the legend.

00:27:01I hereby announce this trial.

00:27:04Your Honor, wait.

00:27:05I have additional evidence to submit.

00:27:10Your Honor,

00:27:11I have additional evidence to submit.

00:27:13Please.

00:27:14Defendant,

00:27:15I have one question.

00:27:17Did you ever engage

00:27:18in sexual activity

00:27:19with my client?

00:27:21Everyone saw the photos.

00:27:23We were dating.

00:27:24It was consensual.

00:27:26I never date him, I swear.

00:27:30Even if these photos are real,

00:27:33it doesn't prove

00:27:34that you were in a romantic relationship

00:27:35during the assault.

00:27:37Tell me,

00:27:38when were these photos taken?

00:27:40The day it happened.

00:27:42Why?

00:27:43And do you remember

00:27:44what the weather was like that day?

00:27:46Objection!

00:27:47Irrelevant line of questioning.

00:27:49Move to strike.

00:27:50Sustained.

00:27:51Plaintiff counsel,

00:27:52if you don't have any new evidence,

00:27:54we will recess.

00:27:56Your Honor,

00:27:56the evidence is in these photographs.

00:27:59On the evening of August 2nd,

00:28:01the date of the supposed assault,

00:28:03New York was plundered

00:28:05with severe thunderstorms,

00:28:07torrential downfall.

00:28:08We had heavy rains

00:28:09for two weeks straight.

00:28:11They didn't clear up

00:28:12until August 4th.

00:28:13And yet,

00:28:14you claim that these photographs

00:28:16that have sunshine and light

00:28:18were taken on August 2nd.

00:28:20can you explain that?

00:28:22I must have misremembered.

00:28:24Your Honor,

00:28:25the defendant

00:28:26has deliberately

00:28:28misinterpreted

00:28:29the timeline

00:28:29of key evidence.

00:28:31I have every reason

00:28:32to believe

00:28:32that these photographs

00:28:33were taken

00:28:34after the assault

00:28:35and under coercion.

00:28:37Objection!

00:28:38Baseless speculation!

00:28:40Your Honor,

00:28:41I have even more evidence

00:28:43to submit.

00:28:46I have additional evidence

00:28:48I would like to submit.

00:28:53The evidence is verified.

00:28:55Permission to plead a video.

00:29:03This footage

00:29:04is time-stamped

00:29:05August 5th.

00:29:06It is proof

00:29:07that those photographs

00:29:08were taken

00:29:09after the assault

00:29:10and under coercion.

00:29:11The evidence

00:29:12is admissible.

00:29:13But the plaintiff

00:29:15has a statement

00:29:16to add.

00:29:17I...

00:29:21I don't know.

00:29:23Lucy,

00:29:24I know it's scary

00:29:25to speak up,

00:29:26but you have to.

00:29:27If you don't,

00:29:29he's gonna walk free.

00:29:30Are you okay with that?

00:29:31If you speak

00:29:33the truth today,

00:29:34you'll not only

00:29:34save yourself,

00:29:35but many other girls

00:29:36he could potentially harm

00:29:38in the future.

00:29:39Okay?

00:29:40I really can do that?

00:29:42Yes.

00:29:43Yes.

00:29:45All right,

00:29:46I'll talk.

00:29:47After that night,

00:29:48I wanted to

00:29:49report him immediately,

00:29:51but he said

00:29:52he was already here,

00:29:54and if I dared

00:29:55to go to the police,

00:29:56he'd post those photos

00:29:58of me and

00:29:59her of my

00:29:59sick little sister.

00:30:01And those photographs?

00:30:05He...

00:30:06He forced me

00:30:06to take them

00:30:07after everything happened.

00:30:09Shut up, bitch!

00:30:10You say one more word

00:30:11and I'll kill

00:30:12that sick brat!

00:30:12Shut up!

00:30:15Your Honor,

00:30:17this evidence

00:30:18proves that

00:30:18the defendant

00:30:19committed rape,

00:30:20assault and battery,

00:30:21and criminal intimidation.

00:30:23The plaintiff moves

00:30:24to pursue

00:30:25the maximum penalty

00:30:26by law!

00:30:30Rape, intimidation,

00:30:31assault?

00:30:32That's a minimum

00:30:33of 25 years.

00:30:34Threatening him

00:30:35and then reporting him

00:30:36is disgusting.

00:30:37The plaintiff's evidence

00:30:39is clear

00:30:40and substantial.

00:30:41Defense

00:30:42do you have

00:30:43anything further?

00:30:46I...

00:30:47fear!

00:30:49You're guaranteed

00:30:50my son would walk!

00:30:51What is going on?

00:30:53I didn't expect

00:30:54Sterling to gather

00:30:55this much evidence

00:30:56in such a short

00:30:57amount of time.

00:30:58I've done everything

00:30:59I can.

00:30:59Figure something out.

00:31:01If I go down,

00:31:02I'm taking you with me.

00:31:03Mark,

00:31:05given the current charges,

00:31:07maximum is 25 years.

00:31:09If you haven't committed

00:31:10any other crimes,

00:31:11I could try to negotiate

00:31:12for a reduced sentence.

00:31:15Other crimes?

00:31:17Your Honor,

00:31:18I have even more

00:31:19evidence to submit.

00:31:30Your Honor,

00:31:31this footage shows

00:31:32the defendant

00:31:32violently assaulting

00:31:34multiple individuals,

00:31:35including minors,

00:31:37during the course

00:31:37of this trial.

00:31:38These actions constitute

00:31:40aggravated battery

00:31:41along with serious intent

00:31:42to do bodily harm.

00:31:44These actions,

00:31:45in combination

00:31:46with his numerous

00:31:48other offenses,

00:31:49lead the plaintiff

00:31:50to want to pursue

00:31:51life imprisonment.

00:31:59The defendant,

00:32:00Mark Moretti,

00:32:01is found guilty

00:32:02of rape,

00:32:03criminal intimidation,

00:32:05and aggravated battery.

00:32:06This court hereby

00:32:08sentences him to life.

00:32:11Mrs. Sterling.

00:32:15Not just for defending me,

00:32:16for free,

00:32:17but also for making sure

00:32:18that monster

00:32:19paid for what he did.

00:32:21It was the right thing

00:32:22to do.

00:32:22You know you're

00:32:23the same age as my daughter.

00:32:24She's still such a child

00:32:25in my eyes,

00:32:26but Lucy,

00:32:28gosh,

00:32:28you've suffered so much.

00:32:31People call you

00:32:32the black reader

00:32:33of the legal world,

00:32:34but you don't seem

00:32:35like that called

00:32:36at all.

00:32:38Let them talk.

00:32:39They're always

00:32:39gossiping about me.

00:32:41But you know,

00:32:41my loyalty has always

00:32:43been on the side of law

00:32:44and of justice.

00:32:45And actually,

00:32:46I want to thank you

00:32:47for reminding me

00:32:48who I really am.

00:32:52That bitch!

00:32:53She destroyed my son!

00:32:56Vicky Sterling

00:32:57is going to pay for this.

00:32:59My son is going to spend

00:33:01the rest of his life

00:33:02behind bars.

00:33:03And you,

00:33:05you arrogant,

00:33:07useless,

00:33:08deadweight bitch!

00:33:10I'll have your name

00:33:12wiped off

00:33:12the legal map

00:33:13of New York!

00:33:15Miss Samoretti,

00:33:16give me one more chance.

00:33:18I can take Sterling down.

00:33:20If we can prove

00:33:21misconduct,

00:33:22her cases can be reviewed,

00:33:24marks included.

00:33:25I have a plan.

00:33:27There's a case she handled

00:33:28with a questionable outcome.

00:33:31This girl is me.

00:33:33Sterling put her father

00:33:34behind bars.

00:33:35If we can find her,

00:33:37her story can force

00:33:39full investigation.

00:33:48Mom!

00:33:50Tell me.

00:33:51Tell me what happened.

00:33:52Oh, I'm trying to breed.

00:33:54Oh.

00:33:55Mom!

00:33:55Tell me what happened

00:33:56to the Morty monster in there.

00:33:58He got a lifelong sentence.

00:34:01Paul,

00:34:01you've made Mom

00:34:02tell this story

00:34:02a hundred times.

00:34:04Because I think Mom's amazing.

00:34:06Wow,

00:34:06you're literally

00:34:07super young.

00:34:09I agree.

00:34:10All right,

00:34:12you two.

00:34:19That girl is...

00:34:22In quotes,

00:34:24you'd better plead guilty.

00:34:25Otherwise,

00:34:26your sweet little daughter

00:34:27will not be so lucky.

00:34:28Don't hurt my daughter.

00:34:30I plead guilty

00:34:31on the way to anything.

00:34:32That's the defendant

00:34:33for today's trial.

00:34:34Hey,

00:34:35stop or I'm going

00:34:36to call the police.

00:34:39Oh my God.

00:34:40Are you okay?

00:34:41Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:34:42I'm okay.

00:34:43Sterling,

00:34:44I hear you,

00:34:45you're the best

00:34:46and you've never lost a case.

00:34:48You're going to win

00:34:48this one-two, right?

00:34:49Actually,

00:34:50the evidence favors you.

00:34:51I'm going to lose.

00:34:52No, no, no, no.

00:34:53I'll plead guilty in court.

00:34:55You can't lose.

00:34:56Plead guilty?

00:34:57Why?

00:34:57You have a really good chance

00:34:59of being acquitted.

00:35:00Well,

00:35:00people at the bottom

00:35:01like me

00:35:02we didn't have

00:35:03the luxury

00:35:03of chasing justice.

00:35:05I must lose,

00:35:06otherwise they won't let him.

00:35:07I don't understand.

00:35:09Mrs. Sterling,

00:35:10your parent

00:35:11understand me, please.

00:35:22So that's his daughter?

00:35:25Mom?

00:35:26What's wrong?

00:35:29Oh,

00:35:30nothing.

00:35:34Look,

00:35:34I'm no hero.

00:35:36Even I've had cases

00:35:38that made me feel

00:35:40completely powerless.

00:35:46Vicki,

00:35:47you are under investigation

00:35:48for bribery

00:35:49and obstruction

00:35:50of justice.

00:35:51You need to come with us.

00:35:52What?

00:35:53That's impossible.

00:35:54My mom would never

00:35:55do anything like that.

00:35:56My mom is a hero.

00:35:58You got the wrong person.

00:35:59Vicki,

00:36:00wait,

00:36:01camera.

00:36:01Don't touch me.

00:36:03Mom?

00:36:03It's okay, Paul.

00:36:05It's fine.

00:36:05Call William.

00:36:06Tell him to meet me there.

00:36:08Mom!

00:36:09Mom!

00:36:10Mom!

00:36:11Mom!

00:36:12Mom!

00:36:13We'll call William.

00:36:14Shh!

00:36:17We're staring at pieces together.

00:36:19Vera and Harrison

00:36:21dug up this five-year-old case

00:36:22and used it

00:36:23to blow public outrage.

00:36:24They're clearly

00:36:25trying to destroy you.

00:36:26How bad is it?

00:36:27They've charged you

00:36:28with bribery and perjury.

00:36:30The hearing is tomorrow,

00:36:32but...

00:36:32What is it?

00:36:34Every lawyer in New York

00:36:35wanting to take your case

00:36:36has been bought off

00:36:37by Harrison.

00:36:38And the ones

00:36:39with a good conscience,

00:36:40they're terrified

00:36:41of public backlash.

00:36:43We're staring

00:36:43with the way

00:36:44it works right now.

00:36:45Tomorrow's hearing

00:36:46may start with you

00:36:46not having a defense attorney

00:36:48at all.

00:36:52You know,

00:36:52I knew

00:36:53from the moment

00:36:54Mark Moretti

00:36:54was sentenced to life

00:36:55that Harrison

00:36:56was not gonna

00:36:57let it in there.

00:36:58If I am convicted,

00:37:00he can reopen

00:37:01his son's case.

00:37:02And that's what's

00:37:03most important to him.

00:37:04Now, what do we do now?

00:37:08William,

00:37:08you are the one

00:37:09that I trust the most.

00:37:11Please take care

00:37:12of Sarah and Paul

00:37:13for me.

00:37:14That's for tomorrow.

00:37:16I'll stand alone.

00:37:18No, no.

00:37:19Mr. Lee,

00:37:19I've followed you

00:37:20for more than 10 years.

00:37:21I'm not abandoning you here.

00:37:26I'm taking your case.

00:37:28I'll be your attorney tomorrow.

00:37:31Mr. Lee,

00:37:32he once taught me

00:37:33that justice

00:37:33must never yield to evil.

00:37:35This time,

00:37:36we don't back down.

00:37:46Miss Sterling,

00:37:47you were accused of perjury.

00:37:48Was your perfect win record

00:37:49as a shield for the powerful?

00:37:50Do you feel any remorse

00:37:51for ruining families

00:37:52to protect the wealthy elite?

00:37:53Look at her!

00:37:54The hypocrite

00:37:55who killed Nina's father!

00:37:56Vampire!

00:37:57Feeding up regular people's misery!

00:37:59No question,

00:37:59no question.

00:38:02It seems the undefeated

00:38:04Miv is finally crumbling.

00:38:05Betraying me

00:38:06always comes with consequences.

00:38:08Don't worry,

00:38:09Mr. Moretti.

00:38:10Once this is all over,

00:38:12I'll file to reopen Mark's case.

00:38:14Looking forward to it.

00:38:19Court's about to start.

00:38:21Why isn't William here yet?

00:38:23What if something happened to him?

00:38:25In the matter of Vicky,

00:38:26charged with obstruction of justice,

00:38:28this court is now in session.

00:38:29Bring the defendant.

00:38:35Mom!

00:38:35That's her!

00:38:36My husband was beaten half to death

00:38:38and she defended that scum!

00:38:40Her heart is pitch black!

00:38:41Ten years in the courtroom,

00:38:42God knows how many lives

00:38:43and innocent families she destroyed.

00:38:45She deserves the worst.

00:38:46The mighty black widow

00:38:47of the legal world.

00:38:48Look at you now.

00:38:50Enjoy it, Vicky.

00:38:52This is the day you fall.

00:38:54Mom!

00:38:54William still isn't here yet.

00:38:56What do we do?

00:38:57Don't worry.

00:38:58He'll be here.

00:38:59Plaintiff of counsel,

00:39:01please proceed.

00:39:07That's Peter Brown,

00:39:08the hottest rising star in New York.

00:39:10They say he only fights

00:39:12and defends the powerless,

00:39:13a real hero.

00:39:14And rumor is he trained

00:39:15under Edward Wilson himself.

00:39:17The legend with him.

00:39:18Sterling is finished.

00:39:20Order.

00:39:21Now, defense counsel,

00:39:23please enter.

00:39:27Mom, what do we do?

00:39:28What if William isn't coming?

00:39:36Mom, what do we do?

00:39:38What if William isn't coming?

00:39:39When William gives his word,

00:39:41he always keeps it.

00:39:42He must be delayed.

00:39:43Give it up, Sterling.

00:39:45You're a disgrace,

00:39:46a parasite in this industry.

00:39:48Anyone who defends you

00:39:50is committing career suicide.

00:39:52You're lying.

00:39:53Don't worry, everyone.

00:39:54Attorney Brown will make sure

00:39:56justice is served today,

00:39:57and Sterling will face

00:39:59what she deserves.

00:40:01Order.

00:40:01Defense counsel does not appear.

00:40:03The healing proceeds without them.

00:40:05Why is this happening?

00:40:06We've treated William

00:40:08like family for years.

00:40:09Why would he abandon us?

00:40:10Sarah,

00:40:11I've made so many mistakes.

00:40:13Maybe all of this is happening

00:40:14because I deserve it.

00:40:16No, it's not.

00:40:32Defense counsel has failed.

00:40:34Defense counsel William Sleeve

00:40:36Requesting for entry.

00:40:38Defense counsel Annie Hothron.

00:40:39Defense counsel Bill Tice.

00:40:41Defense counsel David Boreen.

00:40:43Defense counsel Eleanor Renz.

00:40:45Defense counsel Edward Wilson.

00:40:48Your Honor,

00:40:49on behalf of all these

00:40:50fine lawyers here with me,

00:40:52representing only the best law firms

00:40:55of all of New York,

00:40:57we collectively petition

00:40:58to defend

00:41:00Ms. Marvicky Sterling.

00:41:04Professor Wilson?

00:41:06He's been retired for years.

00:41:08Why would he come out

00:41:10of retirement for Sterling?

00:41:13Mr. Moretti said

00:41:15he bought every lawyer

00:41:16in New York.

00:41:17How is this possible?

00:41:20Oh my God,

00:41:21that's Edward Wilson,

00:41:22the so-called godfather

00:41:23of the legal world.

00:41:24He's been retired for years.

00:41:25Why would he...

00:41:26And Annie Hawthorne.

00:41:27She never touches

00:41:28corporate litigation.

00:41:29She's a public interest legend.

00:41:31Why would she defend, uh,

00:41:33Sterling?

00:41:34Ms. Sterling,

00:41:35looks like I've made it

00:41:35just in time.

00:41:36William,

00:41:37did you bring

00:41:37all of these lawyers here?

00:41:39No.

00:41:40These are the true

00:41:41legal voices of New York.

00:41:43You don't just bring them.

00:41:44They came for justice.

00:41:45They came for you.

00:41:46Thank you all so much

00:41:48for being so willing

00:41:49to stand behind me.

00:41:50I really appreciate it.

00:41:52I am gonna have to ask you

00:41:54to withdraw, though.

00:41:56No, why would you say that?

00:41:58Ms. Sterling,

00:41:59I guess you're worried

00:42:00we'll be dragged down

00:42:01by the Moretti family's influence,

00:42:02aren't you?

00:42:03Yes.

00:42:04This case is backed

00:42:05by a very evil

00:42:06and powerful entity,

00:42:08and they erase anyone

00:42:09that stands in their way.

00:42:10I can't ask any of you

00:42:12to get caught up

00:42:12in their fury

00:42:13and their retaliation.

00:42:14I need you to leave.

00:42:16I am not leaving.

00:42:18I want to see

00:42:19by my own eyes

00:42:20whether power and money

00:42:22get to decide

00:42:23what's right

00:42:23and what's wrong,

00:42:25whether a lawyer

00:42:26who stands for justice

00:42:27can be crushed

00:42:29like a bug.

00:42:30That's right.

00:42:31We're not leaving.

00:42:32We're not leaving.

00:42:34We're not leaving.

00:42:35That's right.

00:42:38We're not leaving.

00:42:40That's right.

00:42:40We're not leaving.

00:42:42We're not leaving.

00:42:43Professor?

00:42:45Peter?

00:42:46You're the plaintiff's counsel?

00:42:48That's right.

00:42:49Professor,

00:42:50you taught me

00:42:51to always stand

00:42:52on the side of justice.

00:42:53So,

00:42:54why are you

00:42:55defending a monster?

00:42:57Now listen very carefully.

00:42:59She is not a monster.

00:43:00Vicky Sterling,

00:43:01in my view,

00:43:02is the finest lawyer

00:43:04in all of New York.

00:43:05Professor,

00:43:06I don't understand

00:43:07what you're talking about.

00:43:08Do you remember

00:43:09the first case

00:43:10I taught you?

00:43:11The Charles

00:43:12solicited evidence case

00:43:13like 20 years ago?

00:43:16Oh,

00:43:16I know that one.

00:43:17Officer Charles,

00:43:18he was notorious

00:43:19for violent arrests.

00:43:20I heard he even

00:43:21set up a poor kid

00:43:22named Lauren.

00:43:23Right.

00:43:23I heard the Supreme Court

00:43:24created a new rule

00:43:26because of that case.

00:43:27And the lawyer

00:43:28who defended that kid

00:43:29was just some

00:43:30nobody back then.

00:43:31Lauren had

00:43:32zero criminal intent.

00:43:34He was framed.

00:43:35Everyone thought

00:43:36he was doomed.

00:43:37But that rookie lawyer

00:43:38stood alone

00:43:39against the entire system

00:43:40and won an acquittal.

00:43:41And that rookie lawyer

00:43:43was Vicky Sterling.

00:43:47What?

00:43:50What?

00:43:51So you're saying

00:43:52the woman

00:43:53everyone's calling

00:43:54a monster

00:43:54was that rookie lawyer?

00:43:56Impossible.

00:43:57Vicky Sterling

00:43:58only entered the field

00:43:5910 years ago.

00:44:00How could she work

00:44:01a case

00:44:02from 20 years ago?

00:44:03That makes no sense.

00:44:05On the contrary.

00:44:07Absolutely.

00:44:09That is

00:44:09why she is

00:44:11so extraordinary.

00:44:13The people know

00:44:15the case.

00:44:15But they do not know

00:44:17that the dirty cop

00:44:19was backed

00:44:19by one of the most

00:44:21powerful

00:44:22real estate

00:44:23syndicates

00:44:24in New York.

00:44:25They threatened

00:44:27her life.

00:44:28But

00:44:28she didn't

00:44:29back down.

00:44:30She won the case.

00:44:31And then

00:44:32she had to disappear

00:44:33for 10 years.

00:44:35Mom

00:44:36moved us

00:44:37from place

00:44:38to place

00:44:38for years.

00:44:39So that's why.

00:44:42Sarah.

00:44:43You and Paul

00:44:44never had a normal

00:44:45or stable

00:44:46childhood.

00:44:47That was all

00:44:48my fault.

00:44:49And then your father...

00:44:49No, it's not.

00:44:51You told us

00:44:52something had

00:44:53to be done

00:44:53by someone.

00:44:55Paul and I

00:44:56think you're

00:44:56a superhero.

00:44:58Always be proud

00:44:59of you.

00:45:01My God.

00:45:02She was through

00:45:03life and her family's

00:45:04safety for a stranger.

00:45:05If this is true,

00:45:06then Mrs.

00:45:08Sterling is really

00:45:09the best lawyer

00:45:10in New York.

00:45:11Enough!

00:45:12One good act

00:45:13doesn't wipe out

00:45:14what she's done.

00:45:15I've worked on

00:45:16a Vicky Sterling

00:45:17for five years.

00:45:18She's protected

00:45:19the rich

00:45:20and pocketed

00:45:21massive amount

00:45:22of fees.

00:45:22She's let criminals

00:45:23walk free.

00:45:25She's destroyed

00:45:25families' lives.

00:45:29She's destroyed

00:45:30families' lives.

00:45:32You're lying.

00:45:33My mom would never

00:45:34do anything like that.

00:45:35Your Honor,

00:45:36as Vicky Sterling's

00:45:38closest formal student,

00:45:39I've seen every case

00:45:41she has handled.

00:45:42So I testify

00:45:43that she repeatedly

00:45:44abused her power,

00:45:46she twisted the law,

00:45:47and she left a disaster.

00:45:49She deserves

00:45:50to be punished.

00:45:52That's a lie,

00:45:52Your Honor.

00:45:53I've worked closely

00:45:54with Ms. Sterling

00:45:54for more than 10 years.

00:45:55I can personally testify

00:45:57that none of that

00:45:58is true.

00:45:58She has always

00:45:59respected the law

00:46:00and upheld due process.

00:46:02Exactly.

00:46:03Ms. Sterling risked

00:46:04your own life

00:46:04and your family's safety

00:46:05to defend the stranger.

00:46:07Why would someone

00:46:07like this suddenly

00:46:08abandon her safety?

00:46:09So what?

00:46:11She did something

00:46:12good 20 years ago.

00:46:13That doesn't mean

00:46:14she's good now.

00:46:15She cannot erase

00:46:17the crime she's committed.

00:46:19That's right.

00:46:20Sterling destroyed

00:46:21my family.

00:46:22My husband died

00:46:23because of her.

00:46:23Maybe she became greedy

00:46:25after fighting the powerful

00:46:26all those years ago.

00:46:27People like her

00:46:28are worse than criminals.

00:46:31Silence!

00:46:32Everyone sits down.

00:46:36Your Honor,

00:46:37everything that

00:46:38defense presented today

00:46:39is irrelevant.

00:46:41Whatever she did

00:46:4120 years ago

00:46:42has nothing to do

00:46:44with the crime

00:46:44she committed today.

00:46:45If 20 years of integrity

00:46:48are not enough

00:46:49to prove her character

00:46:50then what about

00:46:51the last 10?

00:46:52What are you implying?

00:46:54I'm sure you've all

00:46:56heard of the Dawn Foundation,

00:46:58New York's biggest

00:46:59charity organization.

00:47:01The anonymous founder

00:47:03is Vicky Sterling.

00:47:10The Dawn Foundation's

00:47:12reach covers

00:47:13the entire East Coast.

00:47:14They say thousands

00:47:15of families.

00:47:16What happened back then

00:47:17changed her.

00:47:19Yes,

00:47:19but it didn't break her.

00:47:21She found other ways

00:47:23to fight for justice

00:47:24quietly

00:47:25from the shadows.

00:47:27These are Ms. Sterling's

00:47:28donation records.

00:47:29Yet she charged

00:47:30high legal fees

00:47:31but she donated

00:47:32over 90%

00:47:33of her income

00:47:34to Dawn.

00:47:35It across 10 years

00:47:36has a total

00:47:37of $800 million.

00:47:40Ms. Sterling understood

00:47:42that fighting

00:47:43absolute power alone

00:47:45would only risk

00:47:47more innocent lives.

00:47:50The Dawn Foundation.

00:47:51I remember a small town

00:47:53near New York

00:47:53that was wiped out

00:47:54by floods.

00:47:55The Dawn founded

00:47:56other settlements.

00:47:57Three years ago

00:47:58when my husband passed

00:47:59I couldn't afford

00:48:00to raise my kids.

00:48:01I was going to

00:48:02give them up.

00:48:03Dawn stepped in

00:48:04and covered

00:48:04their schooling.

00:48:06So Sterling's

00:48:06high fees were just

00:48:07a way to help

00:48:08more people?

00:48:09Did we blame her wrong?

00:48:10Your Honor,

00:48:11this record proves

00:48:12Vicki Sterling's

00:48:13integrity beyond question.

00:48:15A woman who donates

00:48:16nearly everything

00:48:17she earns

00:48:18is not driven by greed

00:48:19and she would never

00:48:20betray her principles

00:48:21for profit.

00:48:24I thought Sterling

00:48:25was just another

00:48:26greedy lawyer.

00:48:27But she had donated

00:48:28everything.

00:48:29She had no reason

00:48:30to hurt anyone.

00:48:30Hard to believe

00:48:31that black widow

00:48:32of the legal world

00:48:33is actually that good.

00:48:35Mom,

00:48:37you did all of this

00:48:38in secret.

00:48:38We believe you.

00:48:40Everyone here

00:48:41believes you're innocent.

00:48:42They'll clear your name.

00:48:44But Sarah,

00:48:45there are things

00:48:46that I've done

00:48:46that are truly wrong.

00:48:48Mom,

00:48:49so what

00:48:50if she founded

00:48:51a charity?

00:48:52Your Honor,

00:48:53objection.

00:48:53These so-called

00:48:54good deeds

00:48:55doesn't prove

00:48:56her innocence.

00:48:58objection sustained.

00:49:00Defense counsel,

00:49:01you know it.

00:49:03You must present

00:49:04direct evidence.

00:49:10Is there anything?

00:49:17See?

00:49:18If she were innocent,

00:49:20they wouldn't have

00:49:20showed up empty-handed.

00:49:22Vicky Sterling

00:49:23is exactly

00:49:24what I said she is.

00:49:25A corrupt,

00:49:27ruthless parasite.

00:49:28That's enough.

00:49:29You keep on choosing

00:49:30that Miss Sterling's guilty.

00:49:31Where's your evidence?

00:49:32Oh,

00:49:33I have evidence.

00:49:35Your Honor,

00:49:36the prosecution

00:49:37formally requests

00:49:38to call

00:49:39our most important witnesses.

00:49:42Please.

00:49:47Murderer!

00:49:48She's the one

00:49:49who killed my father!

00:49:53Order.

00:49:54Plaintiff counsel,

00:49:55please identify

00:49:56your witness.

00:49:57Your Honor,

00:49:58this is our

00:49:59key witness.

00:50:00Nina,

00:50:01daughter of the

00:50:02defendant

00:50:02in the Hank

00:50:03murder case.

00:50:04The Hank case?

00:50:05I remember that.

00:50:07It was the biggest

00:50:07wrongful conviction

00:50:08scandal five years ago.

00:50:10All the evidence

00:50:10favored Hank.

00:50:11He was this close

00:50:12to acquittal.

00:50:13Yeah,

00:50:13but out of nowhere

00:50:14during the final hearing,

00:50:15he confessed.

00:50:16Everyone said

00:50:17he must have been

00:50:17threatened by

00:50:18someone powerful

00:50:19behind the scenes.

00:50:20Your Honor,

00:50:21the attorney

00:50:22who represented

00:50:23the plaintiff

00:50:24against Hank

00:50:24was Vicky Sterling.

00:50:26We now accuse her

00:50:28of abusing

00:50:29the justice system

00:50:30and forcing

00:50:30an innocent man

00:50:32into a wrongful verdict.

00:50:34Witness,

00:50:35you can go

00:50:36with your testimony.

00:50:37Five years ago,

00:50:39I was eight,

00:50:40right before hearing.

00:50:41Dad promised me

00:50:42that he didn't

00:50:43kill anyone,

00:50:43that he did win.

00:50:45But during recess,

00:50:46I saw him

00:50:47kneeling on the ground

00:50:48begging that monster.

00:50:49Everyone said

00:50:50he would win.

00:50:51But after meeting her,

00:50:53he confessed to murder.

00:50:55He killed my father.

00:50:56He made me an orphan.

00:50:57Through our investigation,

00:51:00we discovered

00:51:00Miss Sterling's client

00:51:02in that case

00:51:03was begged

00:51:04by a powerful

00:51:05real estate taker.

00:51:06We have every reason

00:51:08to believe.

00:51:08She used intimidation

00:51:10and violence

00:51:10to force Hank

00:51:11into a false confession

00:51:13just to protect

00:51:14the rich.

00:51:15Vicky Sterling,

00:51:16you destroyed

00:51:17an innocent life.

00:51:18You left a little girl

00:51:19without a father.

00:51:20Aren't you afraid

00:51:21you're burning hell

00:51:22for what you've done?

00:51:26My god,

00:51:28she was only eight.

00:51:29Her father gone

00:51:30because of a wrongful conviction.

00:51:31It's so heartbreaking.

00:51:32I knew it.

00:51:33This woman was never

00:51:34a good person.

00:51:35She got my husband killed.

00:51:37Now we find out

00:51:38she got the girl's

00:51:39father killed too.

00:51:41And to think,

00:51:42I almost believed her earlier.

00:51:43She's nothing but a butcher

00:51:45hiding behind a charity mask.

00:51:47No,

00:51:48my mom wouldn't do that.

00:51:51Tell them.

00:51:52Tell them the truth.

00:51:53Tell them you didn't do this.

00:51:54No, Sarah.

00:51:55It was my fault.

00:51:56What happened back then

00:51:58happened because of me.

00:52:03She admitted it.

00:52:04So,

00:52:05it was true.

00:52:07Dad,

00:52:08after all these years,

00:52:10the monster

00:52:10finally been confessed.

00:52:12Your Honor,

00:52:13the defendant,

00:52:14Vicky Sterling,

00:52:15just admitted guilt

00:52:15in open court.

00:52:17Objection.

00:52:18Miss Sterling was the only

00:52:19expressing remorse

00:52:20and not admitting

00:52:21any actual crimes.

00:52:22You must stop

00:52:23making up words

00:52:24and fabricate confession.

00:52:26Oh, please, William.

00:52:27You're still defending her?

00:52:29Even she admits it.

00:52:30Your Honor,

00:52:31I request an immediate recess.

00:52:33Your Honor,

00:52:34I can prove

00:52:36that my client,

00:52:37Vicky Sterling,

00:52:38has not committed

00:52:40any crime whatsoever.

00:52:41Her belief that she is guilty

00:52:43is based on her

00:52:44extraordinary sense

00:52:46of responsibility.

00:52:50Defense counsel,

00:52:52you claim your client

00:52:53is innocent,

00:52:54but I will repeat it again.

00:52:56Where is the evidence?

00:52:57I do have evidence,

00:52:59but before that,

00:53:00I would ask your Honor

00:53:02permission

00:53:03to cross-reference

00:53:04the witness.

00:53:05Witness,

00:53:06are you able

00:53:07to continue

00:53:08answering questions?

00:53:10You can proceed.

00:53:11Please describe again

00:53:12what you really saw

00:53:14during recess

00:53:15those five years ago.

00:53:16I saw my father

00:53:17kneeling on the ground

00:53:19begging this monster.

00:53:21He was hurt

00:53:22and it looks like

00:53:23he's begging her.

00:53:24Isn't it obvious?

00:53:26Sterling must have

00:53:27used violence.

00:53:28She threatened Hank

00:53:29into confessing.

00:53:31Just to clarify,

00:53:33you did not really

00:53:34hear their conversation

00:53:35and you did not really

00:53:37see Vicky Sterling

00:53:39strike your father.

00:53:43Objection,

00:53:44Your Honor.

00:53:45The defense

00:53:46is leading

00:53:46the witness.

00:53:48I demand that

00:53:48the questioning

00:53:49stops immediately.

00:53:51Objection sustained.

00:53:52Defense counsel,

00:53:53stop this line

00:53:54of questioning.

00:53:55The court needs

00:53:56direct evidence.

00:53:58I...

00:53:58If you had evidence,

00:54:00you would have

00:54:00presented it already.

00:54:01It's been five years.

00:54:02There's no way

00:54:03you found anything.

00:54:04You're right about one point.

00:54:06Time erodes evidence.

00:54:08Then stop wasting

00:54:10the court's time.

00:54:11Again,

00:54:12Your Honor,

00:54:12I request an immediate recess.

00:54:14Your Honor,

00:54:15wait.

00:54:17I do have evidence.

00:54:21Here it is.

00:54:22This contains

00:54:23a video footage

00:54:25of what happened

00:54:26that day

00:54:27actually five years ago.

00:54:29Impossible!

00:54:30After all these years,

00:54:32there was never

00:54:33any video evidence.

00:54:34This has to be fake.

00:54:35It really was difficult

00:54:37to recover anything

00:54:38from that day.

00:54:39But eventually,

00:54:41we found a car

00:54:42parked nearby.

00:54:43So this footage

00:54:44is from its dashcam.

00:54:49The evidence is verified.

00:54:51Play the video.

00:54:56Stand up.

00:54:57In court,

00:54:57you would better leave court.

00:54:59Otherwise,

00:55:00your sweet little daughter

00:55:01will not be sober.

00:55:03Okay,

00:55:04don't hurt her.

00:55:05I'll plead guilty.

00:55:06I'll admit anything.

00:55:07Stop or I'll call the police!

00:55:10God,

00:55:11are you okay?

00:55:11Yeah.

00:55:12Actually,

00:55:12the evidence favors you.

00:55:14I'm going to lose today.

00:55:15No,

00:55:15I'll declare myself

00:55:17guilty in court.

00:55:18You must win.

00:55:21Dad!

00:55:22So he confessed

00:55:23to protect me?

00:55:24How?

00:55:25How could this be?

00:55:26What really happened

00:55:27back then?

00:55:28Tell me the truth!

00:55:30Sarely.

00:55:33What really happened

00:55:35back then?

00:55:36Tell me the truth!

00:55:37Sarely.

00:55:37Your father

00:55:38was innocent

00:55:40and his case

00:55:41was clear cut.

00:55:42The victim died

00:55:43from a fall

00:55:44due to violations

00:55:45at that construction site.

00:55:46But the plaintiff,

00:55:48in an attempt

00:55:48to avoid liability,

00:55:50they framed your father

00:55:51because he was

00:55:52the only other worker

00:55:53there at the time

00:55:54of the accident.

00:55:55I was prepared

00:55:56to lose the trial

00:55:57that day.

00:56:00But he did not

00:56:01want to risk

00:56:01your safety,

00:56:02so he chose

00:56:03to sacrifice himself.

00:56:05What a convenience

00:56:07story.

00:56:08If that's true,

00:56:09then why didn't

00:56:10you say anything?

00:56:11You knew

00:56:12he was innocent

00:56:13and yet you let him

00:56:14get life in prison.

00:56:16I did try

00:56:18to stop him,

00:56:19but he did not

00:56:20want to risk

00:56:21your safety,

00:56:21not for a single moment.

00:56:23That's why he chose

00:56:24to sacrifice

00:56:24his own freedom.

00:56:26And I also learned

00:56:2820 years ago

00:56:29the challenging

00:56:30absolute power

00:56:31head-on

00:56:32can only lead

00:56:33to more destruction.

00:56:34I had no choice.

00:56:36So that's the truth?

00:56:38Dad went to the

00:56:39construction site

00:56:40because he wanted

00:56:41extra money

00:56:42to buy me

00:56:42birthday presents.

00:56:43It's all my fault.

00:56:45I'm the one

00:56:46who killed my dad.

00:56:48Your Honor,

00:56:50the evidence

00:56:50clearly shows

00:56:51client has committed

00:56:53desperate attempt

00:56:55to protect his daughter.

00:56:57From beginning

00:56:57to the end,

00:56:59Vicky Sterling

00:56:59committed

00:57:00no crime at all.

00:57:01the defense

00:57:02moves to dismiss

00:57:05all the plaintiff's

00:57:06accusations

00:57:07in its entirety.

00:57:11This truth,

00:57:12I can't believe it.

00:57:14Sterling wasn't

00:57:14the villain,

00:57:15it was the power

00:57:15crushing people

00:57:16at the bottom.

00:57:17And she's been

00:57:18fighting for them

00:57:18this whole time.

00:57:19She founded a charity

00:57:20just to help people

00:57:21who needed it most.

00:57:22We really blamed her

00:57:23for nothing.

00:57:24Enough!

00:57:25One win

00:57:26doesn't erase

00:57:27ten years of doubt.

00:57:28So are you saying

00:57:29that every single case

00:57:30that she's handled,

00:57:31she was innocent?

00:57:32I can prove

00:57:33that my client

00:57:34is innocent.

00:57:35I have more evidence.

00:57:37And so do I.

00:57:38Your Honor,

00:57:39with all the evidence

00:57:40we have here,

00:57:41Vicky Sterling

00:57:42has committed

00:57:42no crime.

00:57:43She's always

00:57:44upheld the law,

00:57:45respected due process,

00:57:46and devoted

00:57:46her entire life

00:57:47to justice.

00:57:49She is

00:57:50the best attorney

00:57:51in New York.

00:57:54All these years,

00:57:55I never knew

00:57:56someone was fighting

00:57:57for justice

00:57:58in the shadows.

00:58:00Miss Sterling,

00:58:01you're the kind

00:58:02of lawyer

00:58:02we all aspire to be.

00:58:05Oh no,

00:58:07this can't be happening.

00:58:08Mr. Ready,

00:58:09you'll destroy me.

00:58:10Your Honor,

00:58:11I have one last

00:58:13submission to make.

00:58:14I am formally accusing

00:58:15plaintiff Vera Cross

00:58:17fully accountable

00:58:18of stealing

00:58:19our law from steel

00:58:20and fabricating evidence.

00:58:22This is a severe

00:58:23violation of the state

00:58:24law and legal ethics.

00:58:26Therefore,

00:58:26I request Vera Cross

00:58:28to be held

00:58:28fully accountable.

00:58:30Fully accountable!

00:58:31Fully accountable!

00:58:33Fully accountable!

00:58:34Fully accountable!

00:58:35Oh, God,

00:58:36I'm finished!

00:58:38Shit!

00:58:43The court

00:58:44will now announce

00:58:45the verdict.

00:58:46Please,

00:58:46all rise.

00:58:52The defendant,

00:58:54Vicky Sterling,

00:58:55is found

00:58:56not guilty

00:58:57and she is

00:58:57released immediately.

00:59:02As for the plaintiff,

00:59:05Vera Cross,

00:59:06for having committed

00:59:07malicious,

00:59:08false accusations

00:59:12The court

00:59:13hereby revokes

00:59:14her license

00:59:15for practicing law

00:59:16and sentences

00:59:18her to

00:59:19ten years

00:59:19in prison.

00:59:21No!

00:59:29Miss Wilson,

00:59:30you've been retired

00:59:31for years.

00:59:32What made you

00:59:32return for Miss Sterling?

00:59:33Did you already know

00:59:34she was innocent?

00:59:35Well, actually,

00:59:36I had planned

00:59:37to request

00:59:38for leniency

00:59:39for something

00:59:40that happened

00:59:4120 years ago.

00:59:42But during

00:59:43my investigations,

00:59:45I found out

00:59:45that she had

00:59:46never, ever

00:59:47committed

00:59:47any wrongdoings.

00:59:49Actually,

00:59:50she has served

00:59:50this city

00:59:51in ways

00:59:52that no one

00:59:53can imagine.

00:59:54A lawyer like her

00:59:55should never

00:59:56be crushed

00:59:57by such

00:59:58underhanded

00:59:59schemes.

01:00:01We stood with her

01:00:02to show one truth.

01:00:03Justice may reflect

01:00:04but it shall

01:00:05never be silenced

01:00:06by the powerful.

01:00:08Thank you so much.

01:00:09Thank all of you

01:00:10for standing by me.

01:00:11Miss Sterling,

01:00:12after everything

01:00:13that happened,

01:00:13will you continue

01:00:14speaking up

01:00:14for ordinary people?

01:00:15The truth

01:00:15should never

01:00:16be hidden

01:00:16in the shadows.

01:00:17And from this

01:00:18day forward,

01:00:19I will only

01:00:20fight for justice.

01:00:26Jesus Christ!

01:00:28What a goddamn idiot!

01:00:30She turns down

01:00:31millions

01:00:31just so she can

01:00:32play the hero

01:00:33for people

01:00:34that aren't worth

01:00:35dog shit!

01:00:36Has Sterling

01:00:37finally lost

01:00:37her fucking mind?

01:00:39Sir,

01:00:40please calm down.

01:00:41Mark has been

01:00:41sentenced to life

01:00:42and every lawyer

01:00:43that had worked

01:00:44with you

01:00:45who used to work

01:00:46with us

01:00:46has been taken

01:00:47down one by one.

01:00:48What's our next move?

01:00:49Every eye in the city

01:00:50is watching us right now.

01:00:52One wrong move.

01:00:53Just one.

01:00:54And we're done!

01:00:56We wait.

01:00:58And the noise

01:00:59will die down.

01:01:00And then we pull

01:01:01him out.

01:01:02Clean up everything.

01:01:04We can't afford

01:01:05to have Sterling

01:01:05pulling on

01:01:06any loose threads.

01:01:09Yes, sir.

01:01:10Happy birthday, Mom!

01:01:14Thank you, my loves.

01:01:16Mom, congratulations

01:01:17on being free again

01:01:18and fighting

01:01:19for the justice

01:01:20the way you used to.

01:01:21Oh, thank you.

01:01:22Thank you, children.

01:01:24But, Mom,

01:01:26after everything

01:01:26that's happened,

01:01:27you've really

01:01:28pissed the Morettis off.

01:01:30They won't just

01:01:31let this go,

01:01:32will they?

01:01:33Well, I, uh,

01:01:35I...

01:01:36Who is it?

01:01:37Miss Sterling,

01:01:38after everything

01:01:39that happened,

01:01:39will you continue

01:01:40speaking up

01:01:40for ordinary people?

01:01:41Hayden Farms

01:01:42is one of the biggest

01:01:43Moretti family properties.

01:01:45Are they here

01:01:45to cause trouble?

01:01:46No.

01:01:49No.

01:01:56If you're here

01:01:56to cause trouble...

01:02:00Guys!

01:02:01It really is

01:02:02Miss Sterling.

01:02:02Please, go.

01:02:04Please, Miss Sterling,

01:02:05help us.

01:02:06Please, please,

01:02:07please help us.

01:02:08Wait, everyone,

01:02:10please, get up.

01:02:11Please, please.

01:02:12If you truly need help,

01:02:14my mom will do

01:02:15everything she can.

01:02:16I'm sorry,

01:02:17I'm a little confused.

01:02:18Do you want me

01:02:19to represent you?

01:02:20Who are you trying to sue?

01:02:22Harrison Moretti.

01:02:23The real estate

01:02:24king of the East Coast.

01:02:26What?

01:02:27His son was just

01:02:28sentenced to life.

01:02:29You mean that

01:02:30Harrison himself

01:02:31is involved?

01:02:32What happened?

01:02:34Do you know

01:02:34Hayden estate?

01:02:35Of course.

01:02:37It's the Moretti family's

01:02:38biggest property.

01:02:40I mean,

01:02:40rumor has it

01:02:41that Harrison himself

01:02:42built his entire empire

01:02:44off that land

01:02:4420 years ago.

01:02:45That land was ours.

01:02:47It was our home

01:02:48for generations.

01:02:50Moretti didn't

01:02:51just steal the land.

01:02:52He killed

01:02:52dozens of farmers.

01:02:55Murder?

01:02:56How dare he?

01:02:58Harrison is one

01:02:59of the most powerful

01:03:00men on the East Coast.

01:03:01I had no idea

01:03:03he was capable

01:03:04of such monstrous acts.

01:03:05Because power

01:03:06can hide everything.

01:03:08Those men who died,

01:03:09they were our fathers.

01:03:10The strongest farmers

01:03:11in the community

01:03:13disappeared overnight

01:03:14and only women

01:03:15and children

01:03:16were left behind.

01:03:17They claimed

01:03:18we were hired workers

01:03:20on the estate,

01:03:21but we were just

01:03:22prisoners.

01:03:23He kept us there

01:03:25to keep us silent.

01:03:26We escaped only recently.

01:03:27Please,

01:03:28Miss Sterling,

01:03:29help us.

01:03:30Please.

01:03:31Please help us.

01:03:32Please help us.

01:03:33Of course,

01:03:34I will take your case.

01:03:35I will get justice

01:03:37for all of you.

01:03:38Thanks.

01:03:39Thank you, Miss Sterling.

01:03:46Sir, this is Hayden

01:03:47Estates' revenue report

01:03:49from the last several years.

01:03:50Total profit's

01:03:51two billion dollars.

01:03:54Of course.

01:03:56I knew this project

01:03:57was a gold mine.

01:03:59And, uh,

01:04:00those meddlesome farmers

01:04:02have been taken care of?

01:04:04Rest assured, sir,

01:04:05they're being watched closely.

01:04:07And no one will ever know

01:04:08what really happened

01:04:0920 years ago.

01:04:11Boss,

01:04:12something is wrong.

01:04:13What?

01:04:14Someone started asking

01:04:16questions about

01:04:17Hayden Estates.

01:04:19Who the hell

01:04:20thinks they can

01:04:21meddle around

01:04:22in my business?

01:04:23It is Vicky Sterling.

01:04:30Miss Sterling,

01:04:31you're incredible.

01:04:32Within a week,

01:04:33you've uncovered

01:04:33everything that's been

01:04:34better for 20 years.

01:04:35Well, a lawyer's duty

01:04:37is to uncover the truth,

01:04:38especially when

01:04:39that truth protects

01:04:40the innocent.

01:04:41I just never imagined

01:04:43Harrison's crimes

01:04:44ran this deep.

01:04:45Ma'am,

01:04:46with all the evidence

01:04:47we've gathered so far,

01:04:48tomorrow's hearing,

01:04:49he's not walking away

01:04:50from this.

01:04:52This is Sterling.

01:04:54Miss Sterling,

01:04:55it's been a while.

01:04:58Would you like

01:04:58to come by the office?

01:05:00The hearing is tomorrow.

01:05:02Plaintiff counsel

01:05:03should avoid

01:05:03talking to the defendant.

01:05:05Goodbye.

01:05:05Wait!

01:05:07That special medication

01:05:09you requested

01:05:10for your son

01:05:11has come in.

01:05:12You wouldn't want him

01:05:13to go without it now,

01:05:15would you?

01:05:18Mr. Harrison,

01:05:19Miss Sterling is here.

01:05:22It seems Miss Sterling

01:05:25is not only

01:05:25a remarkable attorney,

01:05:27but also a devoted mother.

01:05:29Please, sit.

01:05:30If this is about the case,

01:05:32save it.

01:05:33There's nothing

01:05:34to discuss.

01:05:35You clearly don't

01:05:36understand the situation.

01:05:37You think you can

01:05:38walk into my office

01:05:39alone and talk

01:05:40to me like that?

01:05:45What do you want,

01:05:46Harrison?

01:05:47You know what happens

01:05:48to people who cross

01:05:49the Moretti family?

01:05:51You drop the case

01:05:52or you won't

01:05:54walk out that door.

01:05:58You think I came

01:06:00unprepared?

01:06:00If I don't check in

01:06:02with my firm

01:06:02within two hours,

01:06:03my assistant

01:06:04will call the police

01:06:05and leak everything

01:06:07you're saying right now.

01:06:08You don't want

01:06:09additional charges

01:06:10before tomorrow's hearing,

01:06:12do you?

01:06:17Impressive.

01:06:18The reputation

01:06:19of Black Widow

01:06:20is clearly well-deserved.

01:06:23I tell you what,

01:06:24you drop the farmer's case

01:06:26and I'll put something

01:06:28nice on the table.

01:06:3130 million?

01:06:3330% of the Moretti

01:06:35family business.

01:06:36We're talking billions,

01:06:39sweetheart.

01:06:40Wow, that's...

01:06:41that's such a generous offer.

01:06:51But I'm not interested.

01:06:54Wait!

01:06:55What about

01:06:56your son's medication?

01:06:57That could be the

01:06:58only chance

01:06:59he ever has

01:07:00of walking again.

01:07:01I don't make deals

01:07:02with the devil.

01:07:03And for the record,

01:07:04this entire conversation

01:07:06has been recorded

01:07:07and I'm submitting it

01:07:08into evidence tomorrow.

01:07:10I'll see you

01:07:11in court.

01:07:21I can't believe it.

01:07:22After 20 years,

01:07:23the case is finally

01:07:24going to court.

01:07:26Mrs. Sterling,

01:07:27it's all thanks to you.

01:07:28We tried so many lawyers.

01:07:30Everyone was terrified

01:07:31of the Moretti family.

01:07:32But you,

01:07:32Ms. Sterling,

01:07:33you are the embodiment

01:07:34of justice.

01:07:35This is what I do.

01:07:36Don't worry.

01:07:37With the evidence

01:07:38we have so far

01:07:38and Ms. Sterling's expertise,

01:07:40we will bring

01:07:41that devil harris

01:07:42in justice.

01:07:43It's about time.

01:07:44Let's get ready.

01:07:49Mom!

01:07:50Mom!

01:07:51Sarah, Paul,

01:07:52what's happening?

01:07:53Very clever of you

01:07:54to post guards

01:07:55around your house,

01:07:56Ms. Sterling,

01:07:57but never underestimate

01:07:58them already.

01:07:59What do you want?

01:08:01Simple.

01:08:01You drop the case

01:08:03or I can't guarantee

01:08:04what happens

01:08:05to your two brats.

01:08:06Your son's legs

01:08:07don't work

01:08:08and pretty soon

01:08:09he's going to have

01:08:09a hard time breathing.

01:08:10Maybe both of them.

01:08:12Bastard!

01:08:13At this point,

01:08:14there's nothing

01:08:15I won't do.

01:08:16Choose, Sterling,

01:08:18the farmers

01:08:19or your children.

01:08:26Harrison Moretti,

01:08:27you cold-blooded tyrant.

01:08:28You stole our land

01:08:29for 20 years.

01:08:30You killed our people.

01:08:32Today,

01:08:32the court will finally

01:08:33condemn you.

01:08:34Accusations without evidence

01:08:36is slander.

01:08:38The only ones

01:08:39who should be on trial here

01:08:40are these lying farmers.

01:08:43Still acting tough?

01:08:44Don't forget,

01:08:45Sterling represents us.

01:08:46That's right.

01:08:47You locked us up for years

01:08:48and you bribed

01:08:50every lawyer in the state

01:08:51to shut us out.

01:08:52But Ms. Sterling,

01:08:53she took our case

01:08:54and your time is up.

01:08:56Sterling,

01:08:57she spent her entire career

01:08:59defending the rich.

01:09:01Do you think

01:09:02you can actually afford her?

01:09:04You're lying.

01:09:05Ms. Sterling said

01:09:06she'd take our case for free

01:09:07and she promised we'd win.

01:09:09Huh.

01:09:10Well,

01:09:11check the tie.

01:09:13Where is Ms. Sterling?

01:09:15Court is starting now.

01:09:17She's not here.

01:09:19She doesn't give a damn

01:09:20about you.

01:09:21No, that's impossible.

01:09:23Brother,

01:09:23it's less than a minute.

01:09:25Did she really abandon us?

01:09:29There,

01:09:30Ms. Sterling,

01:09:31she's here.

01:09:39You actually made it.

01:09:41Don't forget,

01:09:43I've still got

01:09:43your two little brats

01:09:44in my hands.

01:09:46You don't actually

01:09:47want me to.

01:09:48You know,

01:09:49it occurred to me

01:09:49that if I give up now,

01:09:50more people are going

01:09:51to suffer because of you.

01:09:53The law doesn't bow down

01:09:55to criminals like you,

01:09:56Moretti.

01:09:57Get ready for prison.

01:10:03Two parties are present.

01:10:05The court is now in session.

01:10:07What do we do now?

01:10:09Sterling actually showed up.

01:10:10I'm finished.

01:10:11Relax, Mr. Moretti.

01:10:12Whatever happened 20 years ago

01:10:14is very deep.

01:10:15But the farmers...

01:10:16Your words mean nothing

01:10:18without proof.

01:10:19No evidence,

01:10:20no conviction.

01:10:21Blaintiff's counsel,

01:10:23please present your case.

01:10:26Your Honor,

01:10:27my client and their families

01:10:28lived on Hayden Estate

01:10:29for generations.

01:10:3120 years ago,

01:10:32the Moretti family

01:10:33tried to take that land

01:10:35by force.

01:10:36It was a brutal act

01:10:38of plunder,

01:10:38and we are seeking

01:10:39full legal accountability.

01:10:47Just as I said,

01:10:48they have no real evidence.

01:10:49All they can allege

01:10:50is forced land seizure.

01:10:51No, no, no.

01:10:52Something cut it.

01:10:53Hayden Estate

01:10:54is my biggest asset.

01:10:55I cannot afford

01:10:56to lose it.

01:10:57Trust me on this one.

01:11:01Your Honor,

01:11:01opposing counsel

01:11:02claims my client

01:11:03took their land by force.

01:11:05But I can prove

01:11:06that Hayden Estate

01:11:07was willingly gifted

01:11:09to the Moretti family.

01:11:11Please look closely.

01:11:12Hayden Estate

01:11:13was voluntarily signed over

01:11:15by these farmers themselves.

01:11:17Lies.

01:11:18My family lived there

01:11:19for generations.

01:11:20Why would we just

01:11:21give it away?

01:11:22Exactly.

01:11:23Giving up ancestral land

01:11:24for free

01:11:25defies common sense.

01:11:27And conveniently,

01:11:28everyone who signed

01:11:29that supposed contract

01:11:31has been missing

01:11:32for 20 years.

01:11:33Your Honor,

01:11:35I have reason to believe

01:11:36that this supposed agreement

01:11:38was obtained

01:11:39through coercion

01:11:40and worse.

01:11:42Nonsense!

01:11:43Developing Hayden Estate

01:11:45was an act of charity!

01:11:47I gave those people jobs!

01:11:49I fed their families!

01:11:51The missing farmers?

01:11:53I don't know anything

01:11:54about that!

01:11:55Your Honor,

01:11:57opposing counsel

01:11:57has yet to provide

01:11:59any concrete evidence.

01:12:00I ask the court

01:12:01to stop these

01:12:02baseless speculations.

01:12:03That's a fair objection.

01:12:05Plaintiff's counsel,

01:12:06I heard many

01:12:07of your arguments,

01:12:08but the court

01:12:09needs direct evidence.

01:12:15Your Honor,

01:12:16since the opposing counsel

01:12:17can present

01:12:18a single piece of evidence,

01:12:20may I conclude

01:12:20that she

01:12:21and these farmers

01:12:22are deliberately

01:12:23defaming

01:12:25my client.

01:12:26I ask that you

01:12:27sanction them

01:12:28accordingly.

01:12:29What do we do?

01:12:30It's been 20 years.

01:12:31We've never found

01:12:32any solid evidence

01:12:33and Mrs. Sterling

01:12:35only took this case

01:12:36three days ago.

01:12:37Does this mean

01:12:38we're going to lose?

01:12:39Your Honor,

01:12:40I have additional evidence

01:12:42I would like to submit.

01:12:43The court calls

01:12:44upon the medical examiner

01:12:46to showcase her findings

01:12:47as pertaining

01:12:48to this case.

01:12:50Medical examiner,

01:12:51don't tell me

01:12:52they found him.

01:12:53Your Honor,

01:12:55we discovered

01:12:55several dozen bodies

01:12:56in the lake waters

01:12:58surrounding Hayden Estate.

01:12:59After examination,

01:13:01we identified them

01:13:01as the farmers

01:13:02who disappeared

01:13:0320 years ago.

01:13:06It's my dad's.

01:13:07I've searched for 20 years

01:13:08and he was there

01:13:10the whole time.

01:13:11Harrison,

01:13:12you monster.

01:13:13You owe them their lives.

01:13:15Even if these bodies

01:13:16belong to the missing farmers,

01:13:18my client has nothing

01:13:19to do with their deaths.

01:13:21For all you know,

01:13:21they could have drowned.

01:13:23Ridiculous.

01:13:23We lived our whole lives

01:13:25on that land.

01:13:26We know every ditch,

01:13:27every drop of water.

01:13:29Dozens of men

01:13:30do not drown by accident

01:13:31in their own backyards.

01:13:34Your Honor,

01:13:35I have additional evidence

01:13:36I would like to submit

01:13:37to this court.

01:13:3820 years ago,

01:13:39Harrison Moretti

01:13:40saw the value

01:13:40in Hayden Estate

01:13:41and he tried to buy it

01:13:42off the farmers

01:13:43and their families.

01:13:44After they refused,

01:13:45he resorted to violence.

01:13:5020 years ago,

01:13:51Harrison Moretti

01:13:52saw the value

01:13:52in Hayden Estate

01:13:53and he tried to buy it

01:13:54off the farmers

01:13:55and their families.

01:13:56After they refused,

01:13:57he resorted to violence.

01:13:59Lies!

01:14:01I never live.

01:14:02Before the farmers disappeared,

01:14:05Harrison called them

01:14:05into a secret meeting.

01:14:07Luckily,

01:14:07one of them

01:14:08had this recorder

01:14:09in his pocket

01:14:10and it captured everything.

01:14:12I would like

01:14:13to submit this evidence

01:14:14to the court.

01:14:25The recording

01:14:26is authenticated.

01:14:28Permission granted.

01:14:34Mr. Moretti,

01:14:35please let us go.

01:14:36Our wives and children

01:14:38are waiting at home.

01:14:39You want to leave?

01:14:40Fine.

01:14:41Sign the deed first.

01:14:42Transfer Hayden Estate

01:14:43to me.

01:14:44No.

01:14:45Hayden Estate

01:14:45is our home.

01:14:46We won't give it away.

01:14:49Then don't blame me.

01:14:51Do it.

01:14:53Press the psalms

01:14:55onto the deeds

01:14:55and dump the bodies

01:14:56into the lake backyard.

01:14:58You beast.

01:14:59It really was you.

01:15:00You killed them.

01:15:01You murdered all of them.

01:15:03No.

01:15:03No, no, no.

01:15:04This is fake.

01:15:05This is all fake.

01:15:09No.

01:15:10No, no, no.

01:15:11This is fake.

01:15:12This is all fake.

01:15:16Your Honor,

01:15:17this audio

01:15:18not only proves

01:15:19that he seized

01:15:20their land illegally,

01:15:21but he also committed

01:15:23mass murder.

01:15:24His crimes are heinous,

01:15:25and we ask you today

01:15:27to impose

01:15:28the maximum sentence

01:15:29as permitted by law.

01:15:33The prosecution's evidence

01:15:35is valid and conclusive.

01:15:38The defendant,

01:15:39Harrison Moretti,

01:15:40is found guilty

01:15:42of all charges.

01:15:44No!

01:15:44Woo!

01:15:46No!

01:15:47It isn't real!

01:15:49The court hereby

01:15:51condemned him

01:15:52to a life sentence

01:15:54with no parole.

01:15:56It isn't real!

01:15:58It isn't real!

01:15:59It isn't real!

01:16:02It isn't real!

01:16:04Sorry.

01:16:05Miss Dillard.

01:16:07We found your children.

01:16:08They're at Hayden Estate.

01:16:10Take me there now.

01:16:13Hayden Estate's massive.

01:16:14Should we contact police first

01:16:15and now wait for reinforcement?

01:16:16No, no.

01:16:17There's not enough time,

01:16:18and I don't care

01:16:19if it takes three days

01:16:19or three nights.

01:16:20We have to find my children.

01:16:21We have to find them now.

01:16:23Oh, my God.

01:16:26Oh, my God.

01:16:27Oh, my God.

01:16:28Oh, my babies.

01:16:29How did you escape?

01:16:31It's them.

01:16:32These farmers,

01:16:33they saved us.

01:16:35Moretti's men,

01:16:35they were about to throw us

01:16:36into this massive lake,

01:16:37but thankfully,

01:16:38they stepped in

01:16:39and they fought them off.

01:16:41They saved our lives.

01:16:43Thank you so much.

01:16:45They were so brave.

01:16:47Moretti's guys

01:16:48were so scary,

01:16:49but the farmers...

01:16:50We're not heroes.

01:16:52This land has been

01:16:52our own for generation.

01:16:54We know every inch of it.

01:16:55That's the only reason

01:16:55we found them.

01:16:57Thank you so much

01:16:58for saving them.

01:17:00We should take them for it.

01:17:02Exactly.

01:17:03You help us for everything.

01:17:04And he's a good person.

01:17:06And good people

01:17:06shouldn't stand at law.

01:17:08You know,

01:17:08I used to think that

01:17:10justice could never defeat power

01:17:11and that ordinary people

01:17:13could never defeat

01:17:14the rich and the powerful.

01:17:16But today,

01:17:17you have all showed me

01:17:18that when we all come together,

01:17:20our light can become a torch.

01:17:22From this day forward,

01:17:24I will only fight for justice.

01:17:26For justice.
