Ms. Lamore,
how are you?

Ready to fight, Diane.

And please, call me Sheryl.

Neil Gross sends his best.

Yeah, he's putting out
a fire in Europe.

This is all Chumhum?

I can't go anywhere these days
without an army.

You saw about
this unredacted report?

Yes, it's supposed
to turn everything around.

Felix Staples,
residence New York,

age... a cause
for heated speculation.

I am a political pundit, I'm
a polemicist, I'm a prophet,

and now I'm a pariah.
And over the last year...

I'm-I'm not done yet.

I'm also a writer
for Breitbart News,

and my school paper,
The Event Horizont.

My favorite writers are George
Orwell, Flannery O'Connor

and Kanye West.
My favorite Kanye song...

Okay, I think we have enough.
Thank you very much, young man.

And over the last year,

Mr. Staples, has your yearly
income been impacted in any way?

Oh, my God.

Annus horribilis.

I went from six figures
to-to... goose egg.

Why is Solomon Waltzer
helping a nut like Staples, huh?

Why was your income

so drastically reduced,
Mr. Staples?

One simple reason... Chumhum.
Let's be honest.

Chumhum is punishing me
for my beliefs.

And what form
did this punishment take?

Solomon Waltzer came to this case late.
Find out why. - Got it.

Chumhum banned me from their social media
platforms. I've gone from page one to page 11

in-in... in the search engine.

It's a high-tech lynching
for... uppity homos.

You see before you
a man virtually invisible.

And why did Chumhum do this...
Make you invisible?

Why does anything happen
anymore? Politics.

Liberals are erecting
a huge new wall of censorship.

Why should a person who believes

that third-trimester abortion
is infanticide

be voted off the island?

Why should a person
who believes in religion

or any kind of godless absolute
be simply cancelled?

You're conservative?

I'm a Libertarian.

Silicon Valley liberals only
accept the smell of their own.

The rest of us have
to stand outside

the window of acceptance,
our nose

pressed against
the steaming glass.

And that's why you're suing?

That's exactly why I'm suing.

Chumhum has bankrupted me.

So, Mr. Staples...
Your Honor,

we object to Diane Lockhart
representing the defendant.

And why is that?

She used to represent my client.

I have not represented
Mr. Staples

in two years, Your Honor.

That's true. She turned her
exquisitely-tailored back on me.

I will not touch
on any matters subject

- to attorney-client privilege.
- We believe

any matters regarding my client
will touch

on prior
attorney-client privilege.

I see several attorneys
over there, Ms. Lamore.

I count one...

Seven.

Couldn't you use one of them?

Mr. Staples,
you put on your website,

"No one who has
to deal with blacks can say

with a straight face
all men are created equal."

I was simply paraphrasing James
Watson, Nobel Prize winner...

"Dark-skinned people have

uncontrollable
sex drives."

Objection, Your
Honor. Relevance?

Sustained.
Your Honor, Mr. Staples's

postings constitute hate speech.

My client has a clearly-defined
policy against hate speech.

They also sell it
as a no-holds-barred forum

for the free exchange of ideas.

But that doesn't come

without a responsibility
to society as a whole.

Ideas, Mr. Boseman.
The free exercise

of intellect and imagination.

As fascinating

as this is, gentlemen,

you are in court,

and there's a witness
on the stand.

Yes. Apologies,
Your Honor.

Mr. Staples, aren't you
just playing the ref?

Is that a sports metaphor?

By claiming bias

against your right-wing speech,
aren't you just attempting

to move Chumhum closer
to yet more bias

against all left-leaning speech?

Uh... no.

Well, I just want to start
by saying, great work today.

Really, that was...

Thank you.

Good stuff.

And this shouldn't take long,

but we have a few headlines,

and then we can dive into
some of the specifics. Brad?

First, uh, the judge.

I don't think
she was always engaged.

Right. Felix Staples
is entertaining.

We need to counter that
with our own engagement.

Okay. How?

Try bringing more... urgency
to your cross.

- And emotion.
- Yeah.

W-We need to feel more.
For whom?

Sheryl. We need someone
for the judge to latch on to.

And root for.

Think a-a demonstration,

like Denzel Washington
in Philadelphia.

You know, that moment
when he made Tom Hanks

take off his shirt on the stand.

So, you want me to have Sheryl
take off her shirt?

Well, not that,
but something like that.

We can't lawyer by committee.

I don't want you to.
No, we hire smart people.

We ask them to listen to each
other, and then do their best.

It's a symphony of minds.
A team of rivals.

So, when we get a chance,
we want to talk to you about

an issue that we're having
here at Reddick/Boseman.

What issue?

It's a #MeToo issue.

Okay, well, we'll set up a time.

Okay.
Oh, and, uh, one other thing.

You're losing your second chair.

PR thinks you should replace
Diane with a black lawyer.

A woman would be good.

Young.

Okay.

What'd she say?

We're setting up
a time to discuss.

When?

Haven't set it up yet.

Man!

So this is exciting.

Yes, I'm usually
investigating a murder, so...

What are you reading?

"As is evidenced in
the petitioner's May 11, 2018,

"Income and Expense Declaration,
attached hereto as Exhibit 3,

"his living expenses
total approximately

$8,078 per month."

Hmm. Grisham?

Almost. What are you reading?

"He pauses...

"studying the jury intently,

"his eyes probing.
MICHAEL:

"What does it mean when we say
'shadow of a doubt'?"

Oh, and you're Michael.
Michael Cash.

Fresh-faced lawyer.
Marches to his own drum.

In the midst of paperwork,
a partner bursts in and says...

I need you on a murder case.

Wow. Do you win?
I do. I'm just that good.

I fall in love, too.

Well, that's all in a day's work

for Michael Cash.
Yeah.

Do you want to read it?

Suggest how to make it
more real?

I don't think
that's what they want.

Oh, yeah, sure they do.

No, a lawyer's life
is not really TV-ready.

We rarely have partners
bursting in.

And most of our day is taken up
with paperwork, not court, so...

Lucca, I need you in court.

Sorry to interrupt.

Uh, I need you
on the Staples case.

Are you okay with that?

Sure, yeah. I mean,
I was just doing paperwork.

Okay. 2:00.
Yeah.

Hmm.

Shut up.

How do these work?

Are you talking to me?

You're the Reddick/Boseman
investigator, right?

Right.

Then help me with these,

and I'll tell you
what you need to know.

What are they linked to?

Are they Bluetoothed
to your phone?

I don't know.

Here.

You should really have
a passcode on this.

It's my small rebellion
against modern life.

So, what do you want to know?

You're taking all the fun
out of investigating.

Well, we can make it a game.

Why are you representing
an idiot like Felix Staples?

It's a good free-speech case.

Hate speech isn't free speech.

I'm not talking about
Mr. Staples.

I don't understand.

One thing I've learned
in all my years doing this...

the court case is
rarely about the client.

It's about a statement?

That's the game?

You wanted it to be fun.

Put these in your ears
and they automatically turn on.

Oh. Thank you.

So, if it's not about
the client, who's it about?

PM?

You're not gonna tell me
what "PM" means?

Ask Ms. Lamore.
She knows.

They're working!

"PM"? Well, what does that...

What does that mean?
He wouldn't say.

He said ask Sheryl Lamore.
She would know.

So, you don't throw up
before you go in?

I... Sorry, what?

You don't throw up
before you go into court.

No. You do?

Yeah. In theater I did.

Oh... Oh, okay.
Hey, wait.

Mm...

Oh, yeah.
This is your good side.

I have a good side?
Yeah, everyone does.

Break a leg.

Thanks.

Now DJT, as I like to call him,
because he is my boo,

DJT is trying to get
to the bottom of Crooked Hillary

and Swampy Schumer's
dirty dealings.

Mm-hmm. Dirty, double-crossing,
low-down dealing...

And this weekly video log
of yours had

a significant presence
on Chummy Video.

Is that correct, Ms. Leather?
Just Leather, baby.

And Lace.

Uh, can we hold the cross-talk,
please?

You may continue, Le-Leather.
Yes.

We had significant presence,
until three months ago.

And why is that?

'Cause she and her company
didn't like

our political views.

Mm-hmm!
Uh, can we hold the

"Mm-hmm," too, please?

Billionaires want to keep
black folks

on the Democratic plantation.

Ms. Leather, were you ever told
the reason you were dropped

from Chummy Video?

Oh, they made up some nonsense
about hate speech.

But my sister and me,

we don't have a hating bone
in our bodies.

It was our support of Trump.
Objection.

Uh, yes. Sustained.
Nothing
further, Your Honor.

Uh, just a few
questions, Your Honor.

You referred to...

You referred

to the Parkland High School
students as "crybabies."

Is that a question,

- Counselor?
- Not yet.

You said that, did you not?

We said people

who blame everything on
the NRA are crybabies.

Testify!
No, Lace. Stop.

Uh...

And, ma'am, uh, when you said,

"If a son of mine decided..."

Uh...

Are you all right, Counselor?

Uh, yeah. I just need a moment,
Your Honor.

Sure.

Want me to take this cross?

No, I got it. I got it.
I...

Okay. Okay.

What was that about?

He says he throws up
before going on stage.

Suddenly I feel like
th-throwing up.

He talks about my good side,
and I'm all...

Why do I give a shit
what he thinks?

Just... Okay.

Go back to your training.

Your hours in court.

You're not some idiot actor.

You're Lucca Quinn.

You're fuckin' Clarence Darrow.

"As long as the world
shall last,

"there will be wrongs.

"And if no man objected
and no man rebelled,

those wrongs
would last forever."

There you go.

Impervious.

Omnipotent.

Ready to kill.

This is not pretend.

This is real.

You all right?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Hey, do what I do.

Just imagine everyone in there
without their clothes on.

Gary, I-I need
to ask you a favor.

Yeah, sure.
Stay out of court.

Why?

I need to focus.
Got it.

Got it completely.

Kick some arse.

Got it.

Are you all right
now, Counselor?

I am, Your Honor.

Because we can delay for a day.

Counselor?

Do you have more questions,
Counselor?

Uh...

I do.

I'm good.

Uh...

Ma'am...

Ma'am, did you also say,

"If a son of mine

decided he was gay,
I would beat his ass"?

That was a joke.

Let's turn to your income,
Ms. Soloway.

Leather.

You know, actually,
your real name is Soloway,

so I think I'll use that.

Your Honor,

I would like to be referred to
as Leather.

- It's not up to you.
- Boo!

Ben, would you escort Lace out
of the court, please?

- I'll be good.
- Oh, you will be good,

- but in the hall.
- Ms. Soloway,

what happened to your income
after Chumhum took you off

its social media platforms?
I have no idea.

Well, you appeared
on Conservative TV

only once before
they kicked you off Chumhum.

How many times after?

I-I don't recall.

Well, is it possible
you've appeared

25 times since being banned?

I suppose so.

Laura Ingraham introduced you
as "two black girls

ground down by the bootheel
of political correctness."

Is that accurate?

That sounds like her.
Your website sells

coffee mugs, lawn signs,

Volga River cruises
with Leather 'n' Lace,

and you opened for Ted Nugent
in Branson.

Objection. Relevance.

The relevance is
that these two women

have suffered
zero negative consequences

from Chumhum's action.

In fact,
they have profited from it.

Isn't that right,
Ms. Soloway?

No further questions,
Your Honor.

She's a star.
Amen.

- Full confirmation.
- The unredacted...

Hello, handsome.

- How was your day?
- Ooh.

Insist the report is real
and imminent.
Better now.

And might also include
a recording.

That's right, Tom.

Sources in Justice
have suggested

that this unconfirmed report

might come in the form
of digital sound recordings,

and some are even suggesting

that this recording
might even include singing.

Singing? What kind of singing?

- That's still unclear.
- But many have pointed

to the fact
that Vice President Pence

has been known to hum the songs
from Wicked.

Everything all right?

Uh, yes. Good.

What was that?

Oh, nothing.

So, how was your day?

You told me I was bad at lying.

And it's true.

But you're bad at it, too.

What, this?

It's just something
I'm-I'm dealing with.

What does "the hack" refer to?

And who's "they"?

Diane, we're not roommates.

That was our agreement.

We're in this together now,

so if you're in danger,
I need to know.

What does the hack refer to?

First I need a drink.

♪ ♪

♪ ♪

♪ ♪

I'm part of a group.

A political group.

16 women.

We are attempting
to undercut support

for Trump in 2020.

And this is someone
who wants to stop you?

I think so.

And the hack?

I can't tell you.

Kurt, there are
certain work things

touching on politics
that you can't tell me.

And there are certain things
touching on politics

We have found a way

to bifurcate our lives
and make it work.

So trust me when I say I-I...

I can't tell you.

Is it dangerous?

I don't think so.

If it is,

I will overlook
politics to help.

"Stop, Diane. They
know about the hack."

What in the entire fuck?

So someone knows about us?

- I don't know.
- Are we in trouble here?

We don't know that.
Could I see it?

Is somebody
gonna say it out loud?

We have a mole.

- To what end?
- To stop us.

Anybody wanted to stop us,

all they'd have to do
is call the police.

Maybe they don't want

to stop us.
Maybe they just want to stop

the hacking
of the voting machines.

Who was against it?

I was.
Yeah, but then
you were for it.

Isabella was against it.
She still is.

This is probably what they want.

Make us paranoid
and doubt each other.

Listen, there is a chance
that the authorities

are onto us.

Is it possible
to abort the hack?

Do we want to do that?

Let's find out
whether the malware

has infected the
other machines yet.

Sure. And I'll check
into the social media

of the rest of the group.

- Meaning we'll spy on ourselves?
- I don't have to.

No. Do.

We need to know what
we're dealing with.

Freedom of speech.

It's the bedrock
of our philosophy.

We only draw the line
at extreme statements.

What would you call extreme?

Threats of violence.
Hate speech.

But you're very careful
about what you put into

that category?
Of course.

In fact, as you know,

we had a conflict
with Mr. Staples in the past.

Excuse me?

I don't know. Tell me.

In 2017, comments Felix Staples

made on our website were
flagged as potential problems.

We held a hearing,
and he defended himself.

What was the outcome
of that hearing?

We reinstated him, Hmm.

And he used our services freely
for two more years.

And so Chumhum doesn't alter

its search algorithm
to disadvantage

certain kinds of speech?

Absolutely not.

We have never
manipulated the algorithm

for political purposes,

nor we would ever do so.

Thank you.

Your company has never
manipulated its algorithm

for political reasons.
Is that correct, Ms. Lamore?

It is. The whole point is
to stay politically neutral.

Then tell me
about Praying Mantis.

- Would you like me to repeat the question?
- PM.

- No.
- I believe

it's often code-named PM.
Shut this down.

Ma'am, do you have an answer?

Your Honor,

the plaintiff has not provided

the defense with any
information about this program.

We are not familiar with it.

It's their program.

I don't see why they need
any information from us.

The defense requests a recess
to confer, Your Honor.

You've been taking an awful lot
of breaks over there.

We have no objection,
Your Honor.

My guess is the defense
wants to make us an offer

to stop this in its tracks.

Uh, first off, Sheryl,

we think you did a great job
on the stand. We just have

a few thoughts.
Go fuck yourself.

Ms. Lamore,

what is Praying Mantis?

This is irrelevant to this case.

Your boss may have
just perjured herself

in court.
That makes it relevant.

This is what Waltzer
wanted all along.

- It's proprietary.
- And we are your lawyers,

so tell us.

It's an exploratory program.

It's a customized version
of our search engine

that we're developing for China.

Wait, customized?

As in, it allows China

to censor content?

We don't like
to call it censoring.

It just obeys
the laws of the land.

So you did manipulate
your algorithm.

It's the Chinese market.
You need to toe the line,

or you get frozen out
of the market.

♪ ♪

I won't presume to tell
Ms. Lamore how to run Chumhum,

but it strikes me she has
a public relations nightmare

hanging over her head.

That's you as an objective
observer saying that?

When people start to hear
the details about their

collusion with
the Chinese government...

Collusion. Really?

You thought this was
just an issue of

fringe freedom of speech.

This is an issue of
freedom of speech in China.

It's about silencing
20% of the world,

and then opening yourself
up for business

to the other strongmen
of the world.

We're obeying the law.

Okay, Sol, what
are you looking for?

Hello.

Hi.

They work great.
Thank you.

Mr. Waltzer,

how much do you want?

- 28 million.
- Oh, go to hell.

You're the National Enquirer
blackmailing Jeff Bezos.

And we'll be damned
if we give in.

The difference here,
Ms. Lamore, is

this isn't a dick pic
of Neil Gross.

This is your company
altering their algorithm

to appease the Chinese.

And it's about you
perjuring yourself.

And for a very ugly reason, too.

28 million.

Okay, we'll, uh,
we'll discuss it.

We'll get back to you.

Okey-dokey.

We're not settling.

You should take a minute and
consider the PR side of this.

I don't need any more advice
on my goddamn PR.

No, we're in the right here.

We can't let every asshole
come to us with their hands out.

Okey-dokey.

Oh, uh, Jay, remember
when I asked you

to find that woman
Valerie Peyser?

You mean the convict who said
she worked for Eric Holder?

Yeah.

Can you find out
where she is now?

She's still in prison.

come on down.

Get sworn in.

Are-are you...

Come on.

Mr. Cayman, have
you recently been to China?

Do I have to answer that?

Yes, unless you want
to plead the Fifth.

I met with members
of the Chinese government,

but really, who in
the tech world hasn't?

Anyway, Sheryl asked me to.

How many times?

Maybe eight or ten times.

Did you ever discuss creating

a censored search engine
with Chinese officials?

There are 800 million
Web users in China, okay?

You have to dance
while the music's playing.

Is that a yes?

Yes.
Oh.

Yes.

So, in spite of China's
long history

of human rights abuses,
you felt that 800 million users

were too tempting a market
to pass up.

Look, I-I'm just the PR guy.

I don't make strategic

Okay.

Wait. We have to
stick together.

We can't just guess.

But we need to find
who wrote that note.

Which we'll do.
But this is not helpful.

You know my opinion.
It's one of us.

Someone trying to stop us.
What's going on?

We got a text warning.

From whom?
Valerie.

Go ahead, read it.

W-Wait. Who did...
Who did she write to?

Me.

Go ahead, tell them
what it says.

"I'm glad it's going well.

"Just one warning.
Book Club members may try

"to undercut the group
with false messages.

Ignore them."

How did she know
to write to you?

I contacted her through
some Obama people we know.

Can I see that text?

So, Diane, are you sure
the message you found was real?

What do you mean?

Could it be one of
these false messages

that Valerie is
warning us about?

I... don't think so.

Well, it's just odd
that it wasn't sent

to anybody else's house.

Nope, she's still in prison.

Valerie won't be released
for six months.

And would she be able
to text from prison?

No. Not legally.

What's going on?

Isabella's lying about Valerie.

How do we know this?

Because I lied about Valerie.

In what way did you lie?

Valerie is a scam artist
who formed the resistance group

so she could steal our money.

She went silent
because she is locked up

at Rikers Island
for identity theft

and check fraud.

Isabella made up that text
because...

Well, I don't know why.

Because she wants
to stop the hack.

So the whole group is...
bullshit?

It started as bullshit,

but it was doing
such great work that

I lied... to keep it together.

My life is simple, Diane.

I have a son, I have
a mortgage, I have my job.

And I go from home to work,
and work to home.

So this stuff, this...

bullshit intrigue...

I'm done.

It's too much static.

It's too much drama.

So you want out?
Yeah, tonight I want out.

I'll think about tomorrow.

Josephine?

Yes, sir?
Do we have a database

of government employees?

Yes, sir.
What are you looking for?

I have a partial plate,
but no name.
Does he work at the VA?

I don't think so,
but here's his license plate.

What kind of car was it?

McVEIGH:
It was a Mazda Miata.

His name is Stephen Dinovera.

Of the NSA?

You want me to get
him on the phone?

No. No, not yet.

Let me think, um.
No. Thank you, Josephine.

Ow. Could you not
crash into me?

They greased our wheels.

This morning, he's standing
by the coffee pod

for, like, ten minutes,
wondering why it's not working.

It's like, duh,
it needs more water, dude.

Who are you talking about?
New guy.

Nathan whatever.

What is his deal?

I thought we're not supposed
to write anything down.

Right?

I don't like that guy.
He asks too many questions.

Maybe it's just 'cause he's new.

Maybe.

Hey. What kind of questions
does he ask you?

Uh, "Why do you do this?
Why do you do that?"

What? Why?

You think we're
under surveillance?

Oh, shit.

Ah.

Mr. Staples.
Oh.

We're ready to settle.

We have it written up here.
9.5 million.

9.5?

Where'd you get that?

Diane. You approached her,
Mr. Staples.

Oh, my goodness, no.

Didn't you know,
she has a tendency to... lie?

She recorded you

saying it, on her phone.

Well, I have a recording of her
calling me a cocksucker.

That's what happens
in a world of deep fakes.

22 million.

Just wait for our next
witness. It might go up.

Mm-hmm...

By the way, I think R. Kelly is
getting a raw deal, don't you?

See you in court.

We need to fuck that asshole up.

Yeah.

Fatima Kashgari.

I am an activist,

working on behalf of the Uighur
community in China.

My community.

And what are the Uighur, Fatima?

They are a Muslim
minority in China.

And are they being detained

in internment camps?

Yes. One million
of us are being

confined in what the Chinese
term "reeducation camps."

And what does
reeducation refer to?

Changing our religious beliefs.

We are ordered to sing hymns
praising the Communist Party,

and write self-criticism essays.

Can't you object to this? Jesus.

This has nothing
to do with us.
No, we'll be overruled,

and it will just make it worse.

When did you leave China,

- Fatima?
- Three years ago.

There was a crackdown.
I heard about it in advance.

I-I can't say from whom,

you understand.
We do.

And I tried to warn others.

I used Chumhum to announce
that the authorities were coming

to arrest dissidents,
religious activists.

But Chumhum was cooperating
with the Chinese government.

We weren't, we
weren't cooperating.

What happened next?

My Chumhum e-mail messages
were used

to round up members
of my family, my friends.

My husband, two sisters,

my brother

are all in internment camps
in Xinjiang.

The version of Chumhum
she's referring to

was withdrawn from China.

And any version we roll out
there in the future

would not be subject

to such misuse.

We've insisted
upon it. Of course,

like everyone else,
we have to comply with the laws

of the places we operate in.

And if those laws are
discriminatory, or oppressive?

Social media
and Internet connectivity

help spread democracy.

They help everywhere,
but especially in places

that don't have open societies.

The thin end of the wedge
is the end you put in first.

That's how change starts.

Thank you.

This is Diane Lockhart.

I'm away from my phone
right now.

Please leave a message.

Diane, I found out
who left the note at our door.

His name is Stephen Dinovera,
and he works for the NSA.

Call, and we should discuss.

One new message.

To save the message, press one.

To delete it, press...

Shit.

What are you doing?
God,

don't sneak up on people.

Isn't that the job?

The job is to stay invisible.
It's an important difference.

Are you deleting files?

I'm just organizing
my desktop, okay?

What?

What is it?

Going the extra mile

to get it right, the handsome
British actor is in Chicago

studying how real lawyers
do their job.

How is the Windy City treating
this young man from London?

Oh, it's, it's been so great.

I-I love it here. I love,
you know, the energy, the pizza.

We do love our deep-dish.

Yeah.

Um, but it's more
than that, though,

it's, it's the people.

Ooh. Anyone in particular?

Um, actually,
I, I did meet someone

who's made a huge difference
in my life.

You know, someone who's really
made me really face things

I didn't want to face.
Someone who's opened my heart

and made me want
to be a much better person.

Do you have
an announcement to make?

Um, not yet.

Let's just say

that coming here has already
changed my life for the better.

And, um, you know,

whatever this-this thing is, I'm
determined to see it through.

Well, that's a scoop. Right...

Do you hear that? He's talking
about you on television.

What? What's wrong?

Nothing. I mean,
it's weird.

You know? We've only
known each other a week.

Lucca, he's great.
Don't be stupid.

Hello.

Hello?

We need to talk.

Who are you?

Don't hurt me.
I was just trying to help.

Please.

Help with what?

I'm quitting, just so you know.

I've destroyed every audio
of her talking about the hack,

but I can't cover
for her forever.

What hack?

What?

What'd I say?

What hack?

Her group is trying
to steal the next election.

They've hacked a voting
machine, the ESG-5.

If they don't stop
before it goes online,

Diane will go to jail, or worse.

I'm sorry, but I'm not
her enemy. I'm her friend.

Burt Atwell from the Election
Assistance Committee.

Do you want me to find out
what it's regarding?

No, I got it.

Burt, hi. How are things?

Good.

No, just a small thing.

Um, off the record,
I've been asked by our friends

in Mar-a-Iago to take the ESG-5
voting machines out of service.

No, the family is coming out

with their own machines.

Yeah. And if you decommission
the old ones now,

then they'll have
an opening to bid.

No, just say

the, uh, old machines
didn't comply

with the Disabilities Act
or something.

Thanks a lot.

I'll see you at the range.

In the interest of
a quick settlement,

we've agreed to offer

20 million.
But no more.

No.

That is double
what you wanted, Felix.
That's before I heard

about these reeducation camps.

My God. Awful.

You're so full of shit.

Those are hateful words, Diane.

Mr. Staples and I have
very different ideologies,

but on this we agree:

you've operated unchecked

far too long.

20 million,

and we'll agree to create
an independent tribunal,

a social media Supreme Court,
to guide us toward

greater transparency
and accountability.

Put me on this tribunal,
and we'll consider it.

And 28 million.

- Sorry.
- Call us

when you decide.
Oh, hi,
Mr. Hannity, how are you?

No, I'm wonderful.
I've never been better.

Wonderful!

Well, Mr. Gross
thinks we should pay him.

Okay, we'll put together
the offer.
Okay.

Sheryl, before you go.

Chumhum is our most
important client,

Mm-hmm.
and so we wanted
to warn you

about something
that will be appearing

in the news
in the next few weeks.

Is this the #MeToo problem?

Right.
Okay. What is it?

Uh, my father,
over the course of ten years,

forced his secretary
to perform oral sex on him.

Uh, he apparently did
this with other women.

We don't know how many.

This is Carl Reddick,
the civil rights icon?

Yeah.

We'll be laying out all the
details to a friendly journalist

within the week.
Were there any attempts
to pay this woman off?

Yes.

That's not good.

We know that.

It's a very sensitive time.
We have a zero tolerance policy

for workplace
sexual impropriety.

We understand,
and we are cleaning house.

Okay.

Let me sit down with Neil Gross.

He may just want to move on.
Good.

Good.

Oh... you... uh... "Move on" as in
put this to the side?

No.

"Move on" as in
"go to another firm."

But I'll get back to you.

Where's Liz?

Oh, she's taking a break.

Why?

I don't know.

Polly, you got something.

Yeah.

I was checking on the status
of our hack.

And?

The voting machines are gone.

- They've been decommissioned.
- What?

Look, all I know is the
Election Assistance Committee

took them off-line today.

Why?

They're replacing
them with new ones.

They found the hack.
No. I don't know.

Maybe it's even about
the Republican hack.

So we're back to square one?

Bye.

Where are you going?

Home.

W-We've got to figure this out.

No. I have to go home.

We can still make the
reservation if we leave now.

Uh, yeah, actually, Gary,
do you have a second to talk?

Sure.

What's wrong?

Nothing. It's just, um...

I saw the interview you gave

to Ted Willoughby.
Oh, God, no, not that.

Yeah, that.

And look, Gary, I like you,
I really do.

Uh, but, it's just, you know,
my life is-is complicated.

No, I'm-I'm actually really glad
you saw that, because, uh,

it opens the door
to a conversation.

Oh, I don't think
we need one.
I think we do.

No, Gary...
No, I-it'll only
take a minute. Please.

Uh... Lucca.

Have you ever taken
a personality test?

Excuse me?

A free personality test.

I know, I know, I-I thought
it sounded stupid, too,

but, uh, it's actually
really opened my eyes

to the reactive mind.
That's what I was talking about,

coming to Chicago,
having my heart opened.

But I thought you said
someone changed your life.

Yes. The Commodore.

I. Ron. Dianetics.

It's really great.
You should think about it.
