[knock at door]

- Teddy, hey, look,
I know you heard

I changed my mind
about testifying,

but just let me explain.

- Billy, my father left
when I was very young.

And I never respected him.

And even though
you've murdered people,

I always respected the fact
that you were willing

to risk your life
for your daughter.

- What is this?

- It's the original
arrest report on Tina.

- You swore
you wouldn't do that.

- And you swore that you would
testify against Pellegrini,

who is the most brutal mob boss

that this city has ever seen!

- Teddy, she's just a kid.

- Do you know
where they'll send her?

They will tear her to pieces
in there.

But she doesn't have
to go anywhere

if you just do
what you said you would.

- I testify, I'm a dead man.

- That's what
I'm talking about.

The willingness
to risk your life for her.

Gotta go get a bite to eat.

If I don't have word
that you're going to testify

by the time I'm done,

I will arrest your daughter.

- Teddy!

I thought we were friends.

- We are friends, Billy.

Which is why
I'm risking my life for you.

Now get back inside before

someone-
[explosion]

- [gasps]

Hey, what-
- You were having a nightmare.

It's two nights in a row.

What's the matter?

- I can't stop thinking about
that last year in New York.

It's like I don't know when
I'm dreaming and when I'm not.

- Well,
you're not dreaming now.

- Wouldn't care if I was.

Stop.
- [laughs]

As long as you're up,

you want me to make you
some breakfast?

- That'd be nice.

- Maybe something reminded you
of the old days.

Maybe that's why
you're having bad dreams.

- Pancakes. Go on.

[Bradley Denniston, KONCEPT's
"Bring Those Good Times Back"]

?

- ? You got me feeling
like I'm back home ?

? Love me like
we're still young ?

? Lady luck,
don't lead me on ?

? Can we bring
those good times back? ?

[elevator bell dings]

?

- Morning.

- Whatever it is,
I don't have time.

- Lester Thompson's just been
arrested for murder.

- Cancel my morning
and get me that arrest report.

- You have the partners meeting
in ten minutes.

- You think I don't know that?

I got every partner
from M&A to divorce

wanting to know what's going on
with the merger,

and Ted hasn't responded yet.

- Then what do you want me
to do?

- Tell the partners
I'll know if we're

a go or not by tonight.

And get me that crisis manager
from last year.

Once the press finds out,
this is going to be

OJ Simpson all over again.

- Already done.
Anything else?

- Yeah.
Call Lester's wife, Valerie.

Tell her to meet me
at the bank.

- ? Can we bring
those good times back? ?

? Yeah, yeah

- So you're
the mighty Ted Black.

- And you're Warner Brothers'
newest action star.

But they can't seem
to find their checkbook.

- We're just going
to dive right in?

- Dylan, I took on
the worst mobs in New York.

I beat all of them,

and I did it
without batting an eye.

If I can do that to them,
imagine what I can do for you.

- But I need someone
with confidence,

and you just seem
a little sheepish to me.

- Dylan, you play a badass
in the movies.

I'm a badass in real life.

And I intend to prove it
to you right now.

- Are we going to fight?

- We're going to dance.

- What's that?

- The new deal I got you
from Warner Brothers.

- Got me?
You don't represent me.

- They're under the impression
that I do.

So why don't you take
a look at the number?

- How did you do this?

- That's what I do.
- What'd I miss?

- Dylan coming
to the conclusion

that she's our newest client.

- Oh.

- Not yet.

What happens tomorrow
after your merger?

You ever going to have
time for me again?

- You told her?
- Of course I did.

We're open with our clients.
You taught me that.

- If we're so open,
did you tell her

that I haven't agreed
to the merger yet?

both: Yes.

But he also told me

that you have
the attention of a flea

and to get your word that you
won't palm me off on anyone.

- One condition.
You sign right now.

- Ted. [chuckles]
She can't do that.

[Dylan scoffs softly]

She has meetings
with five other law firms.

- I don't care what she has.

This happens now
or it doesn't happen.

- This isn't how
we treat our clients.

- Dylan, I can walk away
from any deal at any time,

which is where the power
in this world comes from.

So I'm going to go
to my office.

When I get there,
if this is signed,

I will kill for you
for the rest of your life.

If it isn't,

I'll never think
about you again.

- Wait here.

Ted?

- You were late.

- By 30 seconds.
So what?

- So it doesn't work
if you're not there

when she asks me
about the merger.

- OK, I see that in retrospect.

- That was a really nice touch,
stopping me

from putting the contract down.

- You don't think
that was too much?

- I think that she saw you
fight for her.

And getting you instead of me

is the best decision
she'll ever make.

- You got that right.
- Exactly.

Wait a minute.

What did you just say?

- What? I just said
what you just said.

What did you say?
- You know exactly what I said.

- I do.

[soft upbeat rock music]

- Did you cut the air
in the room?

- Second your hand
hit the door.

- You're a machine.
- Damn right. How'd it go?

- Well, I'll cut
my left ball off

if she isn't signing right now.

- You are a class act,
you know that?

- Did you close Huffman
last night?

- Of course I did.
It's what I do.

Speaking of which-
- No.

- Ted, I want the bump.

- Erica,
we have been over this.

Rick gets the bump.

- Rick shines my shoes.

- OK, he's as good a lawyer
as you,

and he's a better manager.

- I'm better in a room,
and you know it.

- And the day that matters,

I will make you
head of a department.

- If I were a man, would you
be saying the same thing?

- How can I possibly know that?

- I don't know, maybe
30 seconds of self-reflection?

- I don't really
see that happening.

- I hate to interrupt,
but Dylan Pryor just signed.

- And there you have it.

My left ball lives
to fight another day.

- Ted.

- This isn't over, Ted.

?

- Hey, John.

We didn't have anything
on the books.

You want me to grab Ted?

- No.

Rosalyn said
he's not to be disturbed.

Besides, I want
to talk to you alone.

- OK.

What can I do for you?

- You guys represent Hypnotic, right?

- [sighs] If this is going
where I think it is,

that part is 15 years younger
than you are.

- That's why I want you
and not Ted.

I need you to get me
an audition.

- That's not going to happen.

- And may I ask why not?

- First of all, we're lawyers.

We're not agents.

- You're telling me
you pick up the phone,

I don't get an audition?

- You know as well as I do
that Ted thinks

once you start
begging for work,

you're not going
to get a job again.

- Hey, buddy, I am not
begging for anything.

I just want a chance to show
I can still get the job done.

- [sighs softly]

You got to take it up
with Ted.

I can't go behind his back.

- Rick, please.

I know he's looking out for me.

And I'm 84.

And I would rather
go down swinging

than waiting for the damn phone
to ring.

- [sighs]
I'll talk to him.

- I want to know why it was you
who came down here and not Ted.

- Because I handle
criminal defense,

whereas Ted handles
your producing deals.

- Yeah, I know what Ted does.

He's been my lawyer
for 12 years, all right?

- Lester, let me explain
something to you.

They're saying a lot
of very specific things

happened last night.

- What, that I killed
my partner in my own backyard?

Why would I do that?
- I know.

You were celebrating
your big opening.

You started doing ecstasy
and shooting into the hills.

- Like we've done
50 times before.

- And all of a sudden,
he shoots himself.

That's what you're saying, right?

- I am not saying it.

That is exactly what happened.

- There's residue
on your hands.

- Because we were shooting.

- No one's gonna buy that.

- Somebody must have seen it.

- You live in the middle
of nowhere.

- Then conjure me
a goddamn witness!

- Lester, I know
that you're scared,

but go with self-defense.

The odds of acquittal are 80%.

- I didn't get where I am
settling for 80,

so find me a witness.

Because I didn't do this.

[upbeat music]

[knock on door]

- Grinding away as usual, Rick?

- I don't just
sign people, Erica.

I actually do work for them.

- I thought the work
was signing them.

Not that it's work for me.

- Well, I guess we'll see
where we both are in ten years.

- I'm more concerned
with where we're both

going to be
this time next week.

You, me.

- You being on top of me?

That's a fantasy
that's never going to happen.

- We'll see about that, Ricky.

?

- Hey, there's something else.

I didn't want to say anything
before in front of Erica.

Your father's in hospice.

He has three days to live.

- I know.
They've called me six times.

- They want you to fly back
and spend some time-

- Tell them to call me
when he's dead.

- Ted.

[soft somber music]

I know what he did.

But if you don't forgive him-

- Rosalyn,
I don't want to hear it.

And I've got a very big day,
so no interruptions.

[solemn music]

?

What you doing here?

- My son gets blown up,

you think
I'm not going to come running?

- I know you're here to weasel
your way back into my life.

Right now,
I need to make sure

that my witness is still alive.

- I'm here to offer you a job.

- Let's assume for a second

that I would ever forgive you
for abandoning us.

I'm not you.

- Teddy,
you could have died today.

I don't want to lose my son.

- Until I graduated law school,
you wouldn't have noticed.

- I'd say you went
to law school

to make me notice!

And I did.

Look, I know you've been
putting in your time here,

but I will make you
a partner on day one.

You can skip
right to the front of the line.

- Get this through your head.

I wouldn't have kids
and then decide to trade up.

I don't sell my soul
defending criminals.

And I don't want to skip

to the front
of the goddamn line.

?

- You're right.

Shouldn't have left you
to your mother.

Made you weak.

- Ted?

Ted?

You got a minute?

It's kind of important.

- Um-[clears throat]
If this is about the promotion,

I told you
not before we merge.

- And I told you that I've
given my life to this firm-

- And you want to be
the fastest ever

to be head of entertainment.
I know.

- You say that like it's
a weight around your neck

instead of me earning it.

- This isn't about timing.

You're scared of Erica.

- Should I be?

- I told you that she's better
in the room than you are.

But I also told you
that's not what being

the head of entertainment
is about.

Now, do you trust me or not?

- I do, but things
you said would happen

haven't happened yet.

- Not everybody gets
the toy that they want

for their birthday.

- This isn't a toy.
I earned it.

- Rick, you do not get
to skip to the front

of the goddamn line!

- [clears throat]

John Amos was in here before.

I told him if you wouldn't
get him an audition, I would.

?

- Stuart wants
to see you about-

- About the merger.
I know. It's Decision Day.

- I take it you also know

that John Amos is waiting
on a call from you?

- Tell him
that I'm up to my eyeballs.

He's been with us
since the beginning.

He'll understand.

Anything else?

- Yes.

Take it easy on Rick.

?

- Stuart!

I haven't seen you all week.

- Well, it's a big decision.

I know you don't like
to be rushed.

- Didn't stop me from waiting

till the last minute, though,
did it?

- I had a mild stroke
about an hour ago,

but I don't really use
my left hand anymore, so...

- [laughs]
- What are you going to do?

- I'm all in on the merger.

- Sure?
- Yes.

And I want you to know why.

- Come on, Ted,
you don't have to.

- We went at it pretty hard

at the beginning
of the negotiation

and I said some crappy things
about criminal defense.

This is how I want
to make it up to you.

- Hey, you apologized,
something you rarely do.

So when you do do it,
it means everything.

- Stuart, you said doo-doo.
- Did I?

What I meant to say is,
we're about to be

the largest firm in the city.

- You got that right.

- You ready to sign
this bad boy?

You know what I just
realized today is?

- Of course.

It's 15 years to the day

since I came out here
and moved in with you.

- And 12 years since we started
this whole thing together.

- Well, enjoy the quiet,
my friend,

because in two weeks,

Samantha's entire firm
is moving in.

- Hey, what do you say
we go out

and celebrate
this thing tonight?

- Waldorf at 8:00?

- Done.

Put the reservation
under your name?

- Yeah.
- Pididiot?

Stu Pididiot?

[quirky music]

[laughs]

?

- Hey, Rick.

[coughs]

- Do you see what I'm doing?

- Is it something
I could help you with?

Because that's actually
why I'm here-

- Leah, fantasy football.

It's the one thing
I do for myself.

I spend exactly 15 minutes
a week on it.

- Aww.
- Now is that time.

And you should know this
because there's a huge sign

on the door that says it.

- The sign says,
"Knock, I'm Available."

- Henderson is such a douche.

- Should I come back or-

- Never going to make
the playoffs anyway.

- Sorry.
- What's up?

- I'd like to work for you.

And before you ask,

it's not because
you're getting the promotion.

I just think
that your leadership style-

- Yeah, I'm going to have
to stop you right there.

- OK.
- You work with Erica.

- I work for Erica.

But she has no interest
in teaching,

and she takes me
for granted

and-
- I get it.

Erica is, uh,

personality-challenged,
shall we say.

- Mm. [sighs]
- Right?

But I'm not stealing you.

If you have a problem with her,

the place to go is to her.

- She won't listen.
- Maybe she won't.

But making people listen
when they don't want to,

that's part of being a lawyer.

And if you can't have
a difficult conversation

with your own team,

how are you going to have one
with an adversary?

- So no?

- No.
- [laughs nervously]

[soft upbeat music]

- Do me a favor?
- Mm?

- Can you take that sign down

and give it to Henderson, please?

- Yeah.
- Thank you.

?

- Are you kidding me right now?
- Lester.

- I am not putting my life
in that man's hands.

You are taking my case.

I don't want to hear
another word about it.

- You think because he wants
you to plead self-defense,

he thinks you did it?

- I don't think anything, Ted.
I know it.

Just like I know if I admit
pulling that trigger,

they're never going to buy
it was self-defense.

- Lester, I am wired
to put people in prison.

I hate the idea
of getting them out.

- Please, Ted, come on, man.

I am begging you.

- Stuart lives for this.
He is the man for the job.

- I cannot go with someone
who doesn't believe me.

- Listen to me.

Stuart Lane is the best defense
attorney in the country.

Now, do you trust me or not?

- All right, Ted.

I trust you.

[suspenseful music]

- ? Could you tell
where my head was at ?

? When you found me?

[laughter]

- What do you mean
I came up with it?

It was your idea.

- You're the one who sent
the pictures to the paper.

- I didn't say
that I wasn't involved.

[laughter]

Oh, no.
No, no, no, no, no.

It's Clooney.
He's getting up to leave.

Get in front of me.
- I don't believe it.

You never apologized to him,
did you?

- We'll discuss it later.
Is he gone?

- Wait a second.

He just dropped
a billion dollars.

It's taking a minute
to pick up.

- Is he gone?
- Wait a second.

He's starting
another nonprofit.

[laughter]

- Stuart, this was really fun.

Thank you.

I needed it.

I gotta swing back
by the office.

- No, come on, Ted.

We haven't done this
in forever.

Let's go to Jones.
One drink at the old hangout.

- That depends.
How much money you got?

- Tens of dollars. Come on.

- Yeah. Yeah.

- Yes.

Yes!

- Check.

[Bakar's "Hell N Back"]

- [grunt-sighs] Clooney's back.

?

- It's good to see you, Eddie.

- Come on.
I'll help.

Are you drunk?

- [chuckles] Very.

I hadn't had fun with Stuart
in a really long time.

- Were you celebrating?

- I wanted to go out
and take my mind

off that last year in New York,

but I can't stop
thinking about it.

I miss Samantha
the way she was.

And Kevin.

- Why did we leave New York?

- I'm sorry
I didn't call, Eddie.

I should have called.

[PA beeping]

- [whispering]
There he is right now.

- Ted, what happened?
Are you all right?

- I'm fine. It's nothing.
- Doesn't look like nothing.

- Samantha,
I was near an explosion,

but it looks a lot worse
than it is.

I'm fine.

And I'm still coming
to your client's thing tonight.

- I don't care
about that right now.

- You don't?

I think you do.

Let me talk to Kevin
and I'll see you tonight.

- OK.
- OK?

[indistinct radio chatter]

- Listen, we got to talk
about how to handle it

if Billy doesn't make it.

- Handle what?

I stuck my neck out
for this case.

If Billy doesn't make it,

I might as well break up
with Samantha

and become a DA in Scranton.

What?

- Nothing, it's-

I'm from Scranton.

- Well, I'm sorry, I don't mean
to crap on where you're from.

- Well, thanks.

'Cause, you know,
I do have hometown pride.

- Yeah, you shouldn't.
Scranton's a suckhole.

- You're a suckhole.

[chuckles]
- Mr. Black?

I'm afraid the shock
was too much for him.

Billy didn't make it.

- All right, look, Teddy-
- Shut up.

I need to think.
- About what?

He's dead.
Look, the case is already gone.

- How many people
know he's dead?

- Uh, three of us,
two nurses in the room.

But what does that
have to do with-

- I need you to get in there

and act like
he's still fighting.

- What?

I can't do that.
- Listen to me.

I just spent a year of my life

trying to put away
the man who murdered

the patient you just lost.

If you don't get back in there,

there's going to be 100 more
just like him.

[serious music]

- You have one day.

- All right.

- What the hell
did you just do?

- I just need you
to keep the agents here.

- Teddy, this is
a career-ending move

if it doesn't land you
in prison.

- I'm not going to have
Billy die for nothing.

- Then you better think
of a hall of fame move.

Because in 24 hours-

- I am not losing this case.

?

[alarm ringing]

?

[alarm ringing]

[sighs]

- Ted?
- What's going on?

- You better get in here.

The entire 25th floor is gone.

[dramatic music]

[elevator bell dings]

- It was Stuart, wasn't it?

- You couldn't have
seen it coming.

- Who did we lose?

- Every senior member
of every department

except sports
and entertainment.

Look, Ted-
- Give me a minute to think.

- What is there to think about?
We need to file an injunction.

- If we do that, the entire
town will know we're weak.

We will be dead in a year.

- And if we can't
stop the bleeding,

we'll be dead in a month.

- I'm not losing my firm.

?

OK, who left whose clients

we absolutely cannot afford
to lose?

- Easy. Litvak, Johnson-

- And Riley.
OK, I want signed contracts

from every client
by the end of the day.

And you call Erica,
tell her to get in here

and start helping.

- Where are you going?

- To get Litvak, Johnson,
and Riley back

before the entire town knows
they're gone.

- Amanda,
what are you doing here?

I thought you left with Stuart?

- Stuart left?

Bon voyage, Stuart.

- I'm sorry.
Do you work here?

Because I don't know
who you are.

- Amanda Stevens.

I've been handling pro bono
for the past two years.

- Rick will catch you up.

Today, you're helping us
close clients.

- Sorry, can't do it.
Have a thing.

- You'll do it, or I will
fire you on the spot.

- Easy, tiger.

Here's the thing.

I run an office here so that
I can have a nice address

and you can pretend you
actually serve your community.

I don't actually work for you,
so you can't fire me.

- [sighs]
I will give you $100,000.

- I don't need your money.

- Everyone needs money.

- They do,

but my family owns half of the
apartments on the West Side,

so I happen to be worth
an ungodly amount of money.

[whispering]
Between us.

[elevator bell dings]
- You don't dress like it.

- [scoffs]
I think we're done here.

What?

- I love you.

- Son of a bitch.

You set me up to get me
out of the office.

- And now you know
what it felt like last year

when you hung me out to dry.
- Hung you-

I have been bringing you along
for the ride for ten years.

- You said you were a lion
and I was a flea

in front of everyone.

- It was a negotiating tactic
to get more-

- This firm would be
nothing without me!

We started with two pillars,

entertainment law
and criminal defense.

And everything else
came from there.

But you think it all
comes from you

because you don't respect
what I do.

Well, we'll see
who's more important.

'Cause you signed an agreement
giving me the right

to take everyone with me.

- I'm going to tie you up
in court for years.

- Yeah, if you were
going to sue,

you'd be here
with papers right now.

What is it you really want?

- Litvak, Johnson, and Riley.

- Hell no.
- Stuart.

- You know what I think
of Litvak, Johnson, and Riley?

If they ever left
and started their own firm,

it'd be called
Lazy, Fat, and Stupid.

If I could fire them today,
I would.

But I need their clients.

Those were your words
six months ago.

Well, now I need their clients.

So go ahead, sue.

[whispering]
But I know the real reason

you left New York.

And if you sue,
the whole thing comes out.

Now get out of my face.
I got work to do.

[dramatic music]

?

You know what I think
of Litvak, Johnson, and Riley?

If they ever left
and started their own firm,

it'd be called
Lazy, Fat, and Stupid.

If I could fire them today,
I would.

But I need their clients.

- Ted, I don't know
what to say.

- You don't need
to say anything.

Get Johnson and Riley
to get the clients on board

and sign papers with us
by the end of the day.

- OK.

?

- Leah, get me Angela Perkins
in two minutes.

Tell her it's important.

Look who put
his big boy pants on.

- I have a proposition
for you.

I need someone on the inside

to feed me information
for six months.

Then I name you
head of entertainment.

- Well, who says I won't be

head of entertainment
over here?

- That voice inside you
that knows

Ted will never promote you
over Rick.

?

- But what you can't do
right now is panic.

Ted has been loyal
to you for ten years.

You can't just-
oh, God damn it.

What can I do for you, Erica?

- I came to say you should
back out of the fight

for head of entertainment.

Gives us the best shot
at working together

after I get it.

- Get the hell
out of my office.

- No.

We're going to talk about this

and we're going to talk about
it now,

Because there was an earthquake

that happened here
this morning,

and Ted doesn't need
long-term thinkers anymore.

He needs first responders.

- Oh, you want to have it out?

- You bet your ass I do.

- All right, strap in.

So you think you're in a fight
between your skills and mine,

but the fight is between
what's in your heart and mine.

And you don't stand a chance.

- I have as much passion
in my pinky

as you do in your entire body.

- Yeah. For yourself.

I want to let you in
on a little secret.

Most people know this
when they're ten.

- Ha!

- You pick a side before
you know who's going to win.

Until you figure that out,
you're nothing.

[soft dramatic music]

- You will never be him, Rick.

You don't have what it takes.

And this whole damn office
knows it.

[tense music]

- He'll never trust you.

And you know it.

?

- Where have you been
all morning?

- Locking down my clients.
- Good.

Now I need you to lock down
everyone else's.

- Come again?

- I don't care
if you step on toes.

I need you to lock down
as many clients as you can,

whether they're yours or not.

- Even Rick's?
- Even Rick's.

- Hmm.

- What's on your mind, Erica?

- You know what's on my mind.

- How many times do I have
to tell you this?

I promised the job to Rick.

- You mean the man
whose clients

you just asked me to shore up?

- I mean the guy
that got in here at 6:00 a.m.,

like he does every morning,
and because of that,

we still have a firm.

Meanwhile, your primary concern

seems to be leveraging me
into a promotion.

- Don't give me that,
because you would do

the same thing,
and you know it.

So what's it going to be?
Yes or no?

- No.

And one of these days,
I promise,

you will learn that closing
clients isn't everything.

[dramatic music]

?

- I don't care what happened.

I just wasted two hours
waiting for your ADA,

so I will be calling
for sanctions.

- You did have a thing.

- Did you think
I was just being cute?

- Well, I think that you
enjoyed saying no to me.

- What can I say?

Watching a man like you realize
that you have nothing I need

does come with a certain
deep satisfaction.

- May I ask you something?

What sort of cases
do you primarily handle?

- Mostly criminal defense.

- Well, how do you do it?

How do you live with yourself,
knowing that whoever it is

is guilty of whatever it is
they're accused of doing?

- Because everyone deserves
someone to fight for them.

Even some kid
who broke into a house

because he doesn't know
any other way.

I've heard what's going on
between you and Stuart,

and I know
what you're thinking of doing.

Once you do it,
there's no going back.

- Any other
unsolicited pieces of advice?

- Sure.

[quirky music]

I dress this way

so no one sees me coming.

[whispering]
Outside of work, however,

it's another story.

- Do I need to tell HR
about this conversation?

- You would.

Except you keep forgetting
I don't work for you.

?

- She doesn't work for me.

- I don't know how you did it,
but Litvak, Johnson, and Riley

are back in the fold
and grateful as hell.

- Rick, about yesterday/

I shouldn't have spoken to you
that way.

I was out of line.

We good?

- We're good.
- Good.

Because I've made a decision.

- You're making Erica and me
co-heads of entertainment.

- How'd you know?

- Because if I were you,
I'd do the same thing.

- [scoffs]
Well, in that case,

what else would you do
if you were me?

- I would get familiar
with Litvak's clients.

Because as soon
as we lock them down,

you're letting him go.

- On his lazy, stupid ass.

[chuckling]

[thoughtful music]

I haven't told Erica
about the promotion yet.

I was waiting to let you
wrap your head around it.

?

- Hey, you think
about John Amos?

- How could I not?
He called me three times today.

Let's call him
tomorrow morning.

Together.

?

[keyboard clicking]

- I want to do more.
- Excuse me?

- You have me set up
the meetings and do the work.

But the clients, they look
at me like I'm a secretary

and not a lawyer, which I am.

- Leah.

Today is not the day.

- Erica, I'm tired
of making you look good.

So either put me up
for senior associate,

or I'll find someone here
who will.

- Close the door.

- Why?

- Because I am willing
to go to bat for you,

but I need you to understand
why I can't do it

for another six months.

[moody soft rock music]

[The Black Keys "These Days"]

- ? My hand to God

- Aren't you making the most
of your situation?

- Can't leave the city.
No one will work with me.

But, you know,
at least I have this, right?

- I need you to drop Stuart
and hire me.

- You kidding me?

I begged you to take my case.

And you said you hated the idea

of keeping people
out of prison.

- OK.

- And you said
Stuart Lane lives for this!

He's the better man
for the job!

You said he was the best
criminal defense attorney

in the country!

- Did you believe me?

Because if you didn't, then
you think I'm better than him.

And if you did, then I can
convince anyone of anything,

because there is nothing
in this world

Stuart Lane is better at
than me.

Lester, he doesn't believe you.

I do.

You said it yourself.

If you admit
that you shot Simon,

they will never buy
self-defense.

- Look, man,
I want to go with you.

I do.
It's just-

- You're afraid.
I get it.

OK? And I'm not going
to sugarcoat it.

It's the fourth quarter,
and you need a touchdown.

You can go with Kirk Cousins
or Patrick Mahomes.

Who's it going to be?

[pensive music]

- Ah.

Are you ever going to call
John Amos back?

- I told Rick
that we would call him

tomorrow morning together.

May I go to my office?

- Yes,
but Leah Power is in there.

- Who's Leah Power?
- She works for Erica.

And from the look on her face,

you're going to want
to find out why she's in there.

- Leah.

- You know who I am?

- Of course I do.

But I've had
a very long day, so...

- I have information that,
in the current environment,

I think you'll-

- What do you want for it?

- I want to be
a senior associate.

- Well, then,
it better be good.

- Erica's secretly
working for Stuart.

[dramatic music]

?

- Get out of my office!

- This is my office.

Now sit down.
- I beg your pardon?

- You think
if I was going to leave,

I'd trust anyone with that
information, let alone Leah?

- You set her up?
No, I don't believe you.

Why would you do that?

- To find out
if I could trust her.

And if you trust me.

- Or you're playing both of us
until you find out

which way the wind is blowing,
Erica!

- Listen, I've been
busting my ass for you

when you don't even see it!

And I haven't gone to Stuart,
but I should.

And in case it hasn't
sunk in for you yet,

if he asked me to betray you,
then he also asked Rick.

?

- ? What makes us grow cold?

- Ted, I know this isn't
going to be easy for you.

?

It's not because
of Erica's promotion.

When I said you were
going to fire Greg Litvak,

you got a look of glee.

?

The man left
to provide for his family,

not to screw you.

But the straw
that broke the back?

Lester.

You're taking on
something you despise

just to save your firm.

?

I used to think
I wanted to be you.

I don't anymore.

And I have to leave
before I forget that.

- This is what I was afraid of.

- Uh, listen, John.

I know that you spoke to Rick
about the audition.

I can still make that happen.

- You think I'm here
about that?

I'm here because I knew
something like this

would happen after you-

- After what?
Rosalyn told you, didn't she?

- Of course she did.

She knows you're off your game
because your father's dying.

- I'm not off anything.

- Ted, what's done is done.

You need to see your father
and forgive him.

- What I need to do
is get my game face on

and destroy these mother-

- Do I need to spell it out
for you?

You created the dynamic you had
with your father at work.

You did it with Stuart.
You did it with Rick.

- Stuart isn't my son.
He's my age.

- You think the dynamic
has anything to do with age?

Have you ever taken
even one acting class?

- You think you know me

because you took
a few acting classes?

- I took 84 years of life,
sonny boy.

And you don't make it right-

- He does not get
to be forgiven!

- You're not doing it for him.

You're doing it for yourself.

?

- ? You showed me things
that nobody should know ?

- I was wondering
how long it would take you

to show up here.

- Samantha, my father's dying.

?

- Wait, let me
get this straight.

You told Leah you were leaving
to test Ted?

- I know you value honesty,
but-

- Oh, sweet Jesus!

You really are smarter
than all of them.

- I might be smarter than them,
but I am not wiser than you.

- Oh, you want to know which
horse I think you should back.

- Of course I do.
That's why I'm here.

- You're not here for that.

You are here
for me to remind you

that you are a Rollins.

You have worked harder to get
where you are than anyone else.

And you don't owe either one
of these two a damn thing.

- Tell me one thing.

Was it your idea
to cut me out of the new firm,

or was it Stuart's?

- His.

He's been gunning for you
since you called him a flea

in the negotiations.

I mean, what did you think
he was going to do

once you signed that agreement?

- I thought that Stuart would
understand in my heart,

we're brothers.

And you don't
betray your brother.

- You can't just treat people
how you do and think

they'll see deep down,
you're this noble creature.

- You do.

[soft dramatic music]

- [chuckles softly]

Not enough
to jeopardize my firm.

?

- I'm going to come after you
with everything I've got.

?

- Then come and get it.

- This is about New York.

- No, Ted, it's about you.

Because what your father did,
it broke you.

And given that you're here
instead of on a plane,

you still don't seem
like you want to fix it.

[melancholy music]

- OK, I'm here.

It's late. What is it?

- I want to know
why you stuck with me

instead of going with Stuart.

- You want to know
if you can trust me.

Well, the main reason-

about a month
into my time here,

I overheard a conversation
between you and Stuart.

He wanted to only give me
diverse clients.

But you said, "Well, if I knew

"she could only close
people of color,

"I never would have hired her.

Throw her in the deep end.
She sinks or swims."

But then you said-

- Lay 100 to 1,
this one swims.

And I'd do it
seven days a week.

Twice on Sunday.

- You have a lot of flaws, Ted.

But you see me for who I am.

- Good.

Because starting Monday,

you're the new head
of entertainment.

- You think it was
going to be that easy?

- I was hoping.
- You were dreaming.

- OK, well,
then let's get to it.

Because I have
a plane to catch.

- OK.
I don't just want a title.

I want to be partner.
- That's a lot to ask.

- You're about
to have your hands full

with a murder case,
which means you need me

to take all of your clients.

So I don't think
that's much to ask at all.

- Partner it is.

- I have another question.

If you could still have
Rick here instead of me,

would you?

- I would.

- Then I guess I'll have
to change your mind.

- You said the story was
the main reason you stayed.

What was the other one?

- Someone once said
that sometimes

you have to pick a side before
you know who's going to win.

And if I'm picking
between you and Stuart Lane,

I'm picking you, Ted.

Seven days a week
and twice on Sunday.

[soft dramatic music]

?

- You gotta admit,
everything is better

when you're drinking Yoo-hoo.

Hey, what's going on?

- Tony said
Dad left because of me.

- Eddie, look at me.

Dad leaving has
nothing to do with you.

Some people have
something wrong with them.

You're not one of them.

He is.

?

- I love you.

- I love you too, Eddie.

?

- Leah, let me take
advantage of you.

Leah, I'm not going
to give you any credit.

Well, not anymore, Erica,

because you're not here
anymore.

And-Erica.

What are you doing here?

- I lied, Leah.

I'm not leaving Ted.

And now I know
I can't trust you.

- Am I getting fired?

- Well, it depends on if you
want to hit the reset button.

- But you said
you couldn't trust me.

- I've been thinking
about trust.

Sometimes you have
to give it to get it.

?

- Kevin.

- Teddy.

- I need your help with a case.

Whatever you want to charge,
I'll pay.

- Teddy, I can't say I didn't
love working with you,

because I did.

But your daddy issues,
they blew up my career.

- Your career wasn't
the only one that blew up.

- What's the case?
- Murder trial.

Producer killed his partner.

- Did he do it?

- He says he didn't.
I believe him.

And everyone deserves somebody
who will fight for them.

- [laughs] A load of bull,
and you know it.

- I said I believed him.
I didn't say he was a saint.

Do you think that I would be
here if he was Mary Poppins?

- Well, that Poppins chick
wasn't so innocent, either.

Spoonful of sugar, my ass.
- [chuckles]

- Listen, Teddy, I got to do
a lot of crappy things

to pay the rent around here,
but this isn't one of them.

- Then forget the money.

You're going to do it
because you owe me.

- I called you
as soon as I knew.

Don't you put that on me.

- I'm not putting it on you.

It's on you.

This is our chance
to make it right.

- I want 200 grand.

- No can do.

It's got to be 4.

Not a penny less.

- Even cockier now that
you have money, aren't you?

- At least
I'm not from Scranton.

- Why you got to be that way?

[both laugh]

?

- Hey, Dad.

How you doing?

A stupid question, I know.

I know we don't have
a lot of time, but...

It was the Yankees game.

I was 13, Eddie was 17.

And I knew that you didn't
want him there.

But you hid that from him.

It was your best day
as a father.

And it was the greatest day
of his life.

You even took a picture of us
and had it framed.

So thank you for that.

Then after you got convicted,

you told me that on
your last night of freedom,

all you wanted to do
was spend it with me.

[somber music]

?

But when that day came,

you let them kill Eddie.

My sweet, beautiful brother

who never hurt a soul
in his life.

And you said you did it
to protect me.

But you didn't even show up
at his funeral.

He was your son.

All my life, "I'm going
to make it up to you, Ted.

"I'm going to make it up
to you.

I'm going to make it
up to you."

?

You'll make it up to me now.

?

[whispering]
You're going to die alone.

?

- Mr. Lane.

We're scheduled to arraign
your client on Monday,

so please explain to me
why I made room to do it now.

- Don't look at me, Your Honor.
I didn't ask for this hearing.

[door opens]
- Well, then who the hell did?

- That would be me, Your Honor.

I also have a motion
to substitute counsel.

- You know he can't stand
doing this, right?

- I know he believes me
and you don't.

- Mr. Lane?

- If he wants it,
he can have it, Your Honor.

- All right, then,
Mr. Thompson.

You've been charged with murder
in the first degree.

How do you plead?

- My client pleads not guilty,
Your Honor,

because he didn't do it.

- You're both going
to regret this.

- [whispering]
Lester won't.

Because I have never
lost a case,

and I'm sure as hell
not going to start now.

You want to spill my secrets?

You remember
I have some of yours too.

- ? I was diagnosed with
a fear of getting too close ?

? Had to tell the ones I love
I was on the ropes ?

? I'm not the only one whose
life's been pulled apart ?

? Spending one year
and three months in the dark ?

? So here we are,
all dressed to kill ?

? Where should we go?

? Have the midnight
conversations ?

? You and I postponed

[Shinedown's "Daylight"]

? You saved my life

? Not once, but twice

- You threw it away.

I saved it.

I know Rick is your friend.

- ? You saved my life

? Make it all all right

- You going to work today?

?

- Not today, Eddie.

?

Today, I'd just like
to spend the day with you.

?

- ? Have faith
that you're not alone ?

? Have faith
that you're not on your own ?

- ? It's amazing what
the hard times can reveal ?

? Like who shows up,
who walks away ?

? And who's for real

? It's amazing what
the hard times can reveal ?

? Like who shows up,
who walks away ?

? And who's for real

? Who shows up,
who walks away ?

? And who's for real

?

? You make sure
I always see the daylight ?

- ? Have faith
that you're not alone ?

? Have faith
that you're not on your own ?

? Have faith
that you're not alone ?

? Have faith
that you're not on your own ?

?

- Aaron. Aaron!
