Previously...

The law firm, Jacobson Moore,

hid documents that could have
taken opioids off the market

ten years earlier.

Think of how many lives
that could have saved.

Including our daughter's.

What you working on?
Just homework.

Did you believe Alfie when
he said he felt better?

Oh, not even a little bit.

What did you do?
Took a tiny little case.

It's my client Dino.
He's the sweetest.

Dino did not kill
his partner Rob.

Rob's wife hid cameras
around the office.

That punch

clearly caused
his burst appendix.

My husband Rob

actually threw up when
he read your letter.

You got us into this.
You're going to do the work

to get us out of it.

I'm the reason
she's in this mess.

I took her first
case away from her

and gave it to Billy.

Congrats, kid!

You made partner!

Who the hell are you?

A Reddit post claimed

that someone
at Jacobson Moore

hid documents.
Who?

Your ex-husband.

And I think
he used the payout

on your brownstone.

If I prove that money
came from his trust,

you pivot away from Julian.

Don't access his account
until I'm with you.

You don't trust me?
Do you trust me?

My mom let me access the trust.

Why all of a sudden?

She wanted us to be able
to buy our forever home.

I could not get confirmation
that Julian's mom

gave him access to the trust.

So I'm going to the bank

and follow the money,
like you said.

Olympia's on our side now.

Yes!

Where you been?

Took down the crime board.

You did?

Well, it's a little weird
for an open house,

like you said.

Don't want to piss off Sandy.

So,

do you really trust Olympia now?

Well, not completely.

I mean,
I'm going to the bank with her.

But I heard something
in her voice, Edwin.

Something changed.

She's on our side,
even if she won't admit it.

Work. Shh.

Hey, Sarah. Everything okay?

I'm sorry to bug you.
Oh, not bugging.
What's happening?

I'm gonna lose this case and
then Dino's gonna go to prison,

all because we couldn't convince

Kevin Miglovich to testify.
Whoa.

Whoa, whoa, darling.
Slow down.

Miglo-who?

Rob's former client.

We just spoke to him, and he had
a big falling-out with Rob.

He lent him a bunch of money,
and, according to Kevin,

Rob pissed it all away

and he threw a dumbbell at him.

Hey, now. That sounds promising.

It would be, except Kevin
just kept insisting

that Rob is a good guy
in over his head,

and then he said he didn't want
to testify against a dead man.

So we thought
maybe you could convince him?

Use your Matty Matlock method

and talk about the time
Cindy Shapiro

threw a dumbbell at your head?

No need to talk Cindy Shapiro.

Kevin gave you
a much better lead.

We'll follow the money.

The money'll lead to the truth.

We got this, Sarah.

Call you back in five.

Okay, do you know why Rob

needed the money from Kevin?

I asked. He wouldn't say.
How much?

100 grand.

Wow. Well, didn't Dino say

that Rob was trying to push
some kind of supplements

onto the clients?

Yup. He registered a
natural supplements company

ten months ago.

Okay, so then if he lost
Kevin's whole investment,

then the company
must have been failing.

And then,
when Rob read your letter...

He must have thought
he was going to get exposed.

Exactly. And if we can prove

his finances
were a house of cards,

then we can prove Rob was
like a ticking time bomb,

just ready to explode.

And win on self-defense.

Okay, great!

Dino gave me a key to the gym.

Rob's stuff is
still in his office.

I'm gonna head over there now
and go through them.

You're the best, Matty.

Thank you.
Great.

I'm here
if you need anything else.

Uh, you've had
enough late nights.

I'll take this one. Go home,

get enough sleep
for the both of us.

You sure?

I got us into this.
I have to get us out.

Oh. Thank you, sweetheart.

I'm all done here.

I bet you're not gonna miss

those late-night
phone calls, huh?

Actually, I...

I will.

I don't want to stop.

Wh-Wh-What do you mean?

I mean when we move back
to San Francisco,

I want to keep on
being a lawyer.

And not in contracts,
either. I...

I was good at that,
but I didn't love it, Edwin.

And this, it's...

Helping people.

Righting wrongs.
Going to court.

I never even considered it,
because of that guy Greg.

But...

I love it so much.

Well, I can understand that.

But...

you retired.

Because Ellie died.

Not because I wanted to.

I went into
self-preservation mode.

I had to look after Alfie.

Who still needs us.

In different ways.

He's a teenager now.
His needs are more manageable.

Well, he still needs somebody
to make his dinners,

to drive him to
his activities.

I don't want to do that
all by myself, without you.

That's not how I pictured
my golden years.

I understand that.

But they're my golden years,
too, Edwin.

I gave up my career,
and you kept on teaching.

Are we still gonna go back
to that?

Yes, because it's important.

You finished your career.

And now I want to finish mine.

And if I say no?

Are you saying no?

I need this, Edwin.

I cannot go back
to being invisible.

You weren't invisible to me.

Hey.
Oh, my God.

Billy,

you scared me to death.
What are you doing here?

I thought I'd be less likely
to call Claudia

if I were otherwise occupied,
so here to help.

I can't believe you're actually
considering calling her back

after she obliterated you.

Do you really not have
a shred of self-respect?

That woman sent you
into a pathetic hole

of insecurity and
self-pity and she also--

Sarah, enough!
It was only an excuse!

I-I have zero problems
resisting Claudia.

The only reason
why I'm here is because

I don't want Olympia
to fire you!

Because despite
your complete inability

to give me support or feedback

in a way that is
remotely appropriate or kind,

I cannot imagine being
at Jacobson Moore without you.

That was nice.

Sorry.

Yeah, it's fine.

So, uh,
how can I help?

Know how to open
a locked drawer?

Because I'm guessing
if there's something

to be found, it's in here.

Well, let me, uh...

take a look.

It's the benefit of
growing up with cops.

There was never a drawer
my mother couldn't open.

How is that a benefit?

Well, it wasn't back then,
but it is now, because--

Oh, my God, are you okay?

I-I don't know,
I think I'm okay?

How bad is it?

Not...

terrible.

I lost a tooth.

You definitely did.

Found it, if that helps.

Okay, I'm emailing
my dentist now.

I'm gonna get
an early appointment

and get
one of those flipper thingies.

And what are you doing?
Just staring at that huge hole

in your mouth.
Well, stop it!

You got the drawer open?

Now start
looking through it.

One tooth is not stopping us,
I've got a lot more.

Mm-hmm.

I made an appointment with
Denise at the bank tomorrow.

After court.

Julian will be "running late."

And you will arrive as his
secretary, sent as his proxy--

Okay, you're both here.

So last night
we found something

really big
in Rob's shame drawer.

His what?

You don't have a drawer for all
the mortifying things you want

to forget but also can't bring
yourself to throw away?

Not important
to the story, but this is.

What am I looking at?

An alternative
to self-defense.

But how will you lay
the foundation?

Through prosecution witnesses,
on cross.

Here is the exact path.

Sarah came up with it.

Okay, I like it.

Go work on your
opening statement.

Great. On it.

You can go, too.

I can't.
I have to say something first.

Tell you about one last lie.

You remember when Billy did
that housing hearing for Autry?

Yes.

I gave that case to Sarah first.

And she deserved it,

and then I took
it away from her

because Billy almost caught me
going through his desk

looking for the
recording device.

The pen.

Why are you telling me this now?

Because the girl that was
just here, not speaking?

That wasn't Sarah.

So maybe what I did
damaged her self-esteem

in a big way,

maybe she's just afraid
of disappointing you

and getting fired,
or maybe she's just having

a good old crisis
of confidence, I don't know.

But I do know, you cannot
let her go into court like that.

Tell Dr. Brentero
that when I smile,

you can see all the way to the
little dangly thing at the back

of my throat.
Yes, I know lots of people
say "dental emergency,"

but this is an actual--

Yes, I'll hold.

Billy, give us a few minutes?

Got to go.

Here's the thing, Sarah.

I am mad about what you did,

but, also, you have been
overlooked this year,

and you shouldn't have been.

So I'm not going to fire you.

But do not do anything
like that again.

If you are on my team,

there is
no breaking of the rules.

Understood?

You seem kind of quiet.

I assume you're nervous
about court tomorrow?

Yeah, that's natural.

But as you know,

I have a huge ego, Sarah.

Enormous.

So when you go in there,
you are representing me.

And I wouldn't send you to court

if I wasn't 100%,

beyond-a-shadow-of-a-doubt
certain

that you will crush this.

What in the hell is that?

Where's your damn tooth?

Olympia, I am so sorry.
It got knocked out.

What?!
But my dentist is trying
to fit me in right now.

It's 50/50.

50/50?! Oh, hell no!

No mentee of mine
is going to argue

her first case in court
without a damn tooth.

Get up.

You are going to my dentist,
right now.

Please do not smile.

You look insane.

Good luck at court
and at the bank.

Thanks, sweetie, and you have
a great day at school, okay?

And let's all talk tonight, okay?

I know you have
a lot on your mind.

We all do.

But the three of us?

Our little family?

Together we can
get through anything.

Okay, let's go.

Ollie, baby, it's Dad.

I know you've been nervous
about your test.

But don't forget
you're two-and-a-half times

as good as everyone else.

So you go in there
and don't just give them hell,

give them the damn heavens,
limbo and everything in-between.

You got your dad's
voicemail back.

Yeah. Found it on the cloud.

Couldn't believe it.

Why are you nervous?
Hmm?

You play the message
when you're nervous.

My mentee is going to court
for the first time today

and it feels like it's

my first time,
too, except

way less control,
which is not my strong suit.

Uh, I'll go wish Sarah luck.

Oh, that girl is
already at the courthouse.

Since dawn, I'm guessing.

Yeah.

So how did Sarah
get the case?

Because I checked
and this Dino guy

wasn't a client
of Olympia's.

Well, because Olympia gave
the client to Sarah.

Look, I know you're hurt--

I'm not hurt, I'm mad,

and I'd like for her
to get in trouble.

Well, that's not gonna happen.

I'll see you later.

I have to get to court
to support Sarah.

How long have you been here?

Oh, not long.

Since 6:00.

Practicing my opening.
Remember,

you're just telling a story.

And if
you get nervous,

don't worry, just use it.

Let the jury in.

You got this, darling.

You've been ready
for a long while now.

Any last words of encouragement?

Show off that tooth.

You're a beast.

You got this.

I've got this.

And, hey, if I lose my way,
I'll just

flip out my tooth and distract--

Oh, no!
No, do not do that.

No? Okay.

Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury...

Little louder.

Sorry.

I'm a little nervous.

Um, first time up here.

But also...

I'm nervous because
the stakes here are so high.

My client, Dino Coletti,

is being charged
with intentionally causing

the death of Rob Pascaleri.

And I am going to present
very clear evidence

that he did not do that.

But first...

...how did we get here?

Well, you're going to hear

two very different answers
to that question.

Two very different versions
of the story.

But here is one fact
that is undisputed.

Rob and Dino used to be close.

So close

they decided to
work together.

And they loved
working together.

Their partnership was great.

For a really long time.

And then, trust was lost.

And after that trust was
lost, everything changed.

Secrets began
to build up.

And everything was filtered
through a new lens.

A lens of suspicion and hurt

and anger.

Dino took the high road
and sought legal counsel.

Rob took the low road
and physically assaulted him.

The prosecution is going
to tell you that my client

punched Rob so hard,
his appendix burst.

But here's the thing.

Rob had one last secret

that would prove
to be his downfall.

And it has absolutely nothing
to do with Dino.

I look forward
to presenting our case.

Thank you very much.

The bank is calling.

No, Denise,
I totally understand.

Family first.

If you have to
pick up your kid,

you have to
pick up your kid.

Yeah, I know Richard.
He and Nelson have been

such great financial partners
for me and Julian.

But, honestly Denise, I just
feel more comfortable with you.

You said you were leaving
at 12:00, right?

So how about I just
come there now?

Really?

Thank you so much.

I'm on my way.

Okay, let's go.
Just me.

You need to stay here with Sarah
in case she needs backup.

I'll change my approach
with Denise.

Did you plan this whole thing?

What?

The bank just called right now,
changing the time?

Denise just had
to pick up her kid?

That's insane.

Well, then reschedule with her.

I already told Denise
that it's urgent.

That will look
really suspicious.

Mm-hmm, well,
this feels really suspicious.

Because there's
clearly no trust.

So everything's
through that lens,

like Sarah just said.

I know why I don't trust you.

But what have I ever done
to lose your trust?

Hmm?

You said two things can be true.

That our friendship
meant something

and you deceived me.

Matty, if that's true...

...if this meant something,
anything...

...trust me now.

Please.

I need the truth, too.

I can't just stand around
and cover for a man

who would do something like
this, who would bury a study

that could have saved lives.

Your daughter's life.

Any other suggestions?

You want him really distracted,

so aim where he's tender.

Meet me at my house at 4:00.

Bring whatever evidence
you find, good...

or bad.

Wait.

Denise, thank you
for squeezing me in.

I know you are so busy.

Oh, of course.
You're a valuable customer.

And I'm really sorry to hear
that you and Julian divorced.

Oh, uh, thanks.

Sorry, it's just been
quite a day.

Found out
he has moved on already.

Went Instagram-official
with his new girlfriend.

Sorry.

This isn't your problem.

No, I'm...

I'm actually going through
the same thing.

What?

Wait.

Don't just look up Denise.

Look up all the people
around her.

You'll get five times
the information.

Yeah. John has been hosing
Instagram with pictures

of him and his new girlfriend
like it's a five-alarm fire.

Why do men have to be so messy?
Right?

My sister is furious.

Oh, you and I are the same.
How?

My mom has been going off.
She wants to kill my ex.

Right there.

Was that the kill shot?

Objection.
Leading the witness.

Sustained.

Was that where
the defendant

delivered his forceful punch

that ruptured
Mr. Pascaleri's appendix?

I believe it is, yes.

And why is a ruptured appendix
so dangerous?

It floods the abdominal cavity

with toxic contents
like feces, mucus

and possible bacteria.

This creates an extremely
dangerous infection.

If treated
right away,

you live.

If untreated, you die.

Would you say
a very strong man

could deliver such
a fatal punch?

Yes.

It is absolutely possible
that a strong punch

caused the appendix to rupture.

No.

I can't believe it.
Julian's not coming.

Seriously?

He just texted,
I'm so pissed.

I am so sorry.

Do you think you can
come back later with him?

I-I can leave the trusts
with Nelson, make it easy.

I can't, I have no childcare.

Oh.

Do you think, maybe, I can just

look real quick?

Oh, I'm sorry, I can't.

I-I could lose my job.

Oh, right, uh...

What if I get Julian to give
you approval over the phone?

Sure, he'd just have to answer
some security questions.

Of course.

I really appreciate it, Denise.

Great.

Yeah, no problem.

Hey.

Yeah, I got your text,
but if you're not going to show,

can you at least talk to Denise

so we can get this
trust thing figured out?

Great. Here she is.

Hi, can I verify
who I'm speaking with?

Thank you, Mr. Markston,
this is Denise Burnley

over at Benefactors Mutual Bank.

I just need your go-ahead
to give Olympia access

to your accounts.

Can you verify
your date of birth?

Uh, great, thanks.

And first address?

Uh, can you speak up?
It's a little hard to hear you

over the traffic.

1435 Park Avenue.

Mother's maiden name?
Bellage.

And what is the name
of your first pet?

Steve.

Is there anything else?
I really have to go.

I can see why you divorced.

Ah, yeah.

Uh, there are the trusts.
I'm gonna give you some privacy.

Thank you, Denise.

Proof.
Right there.

If it weren't for that punch,
my husband would be alive.

But the video does show
your husband

throwing the first punch,

correct?
Yes.

Which was completely
out of character, but...

but Dino had been
going at him for months.

Objection. Speculation.

Sustained.

Can you tell us

what it was like at home
with Rob during this time?

Awful.

He was sad all the time
about Dino,

and how their friendship
had deteriorated.

It-it made him

physically sick.

And... and then he got
that horrible letter.

So, yeah.

Yeah, he came in mad
that morning

and he punched Dino.

But to think
Dino was scared for his life?

Justified in
killing him?

Killing my husband
in self-defense?

No. Never, I-I...

No, don't object,
she's too upset.

You'll lose the jury.

I just, I miss my husband.

I miss him so much.

No further questions.

-
- Easy.

I know this is hard.

Let's talk about Rob's sickness
that you mentioned,

from all the stress?

Did he have stomach issues?

Uh, yeah.

And on the morning of his death,

did his stomach troubles
get worse?

Well, he threw up,
after the letter.

Marking papers found
in Rob and Dino's office

as Defense Exhibit A.

These papers were hidden
in a locked file cabinet.

Could you read the
highlighted portion

of the correspondence
between Rob

and the company
that made his supplements?

"I've been having diarrhea,

"nausea and stomach pains.

"I take the supplements
religiously, three times a day,

could they be causing
these symptoms?"

And what is the date?

February 16.

Approximately three months ago.

Next one,
two weeks later.

Could you pleaseread it?

"Stomach is killing.
Fever on and off."

Next one, the following month.

"You said it was unrelated,

"but I'm feeling
really bad

"and it's the only new
thing in my routine.

"And when I stopped taking
the supplements, I felt...

"better.

"Went back on,
and now I-- it's...

ten times worse."

And what is the date
of the last email?

Uh...

The-the day before he died.

Did you know there
are two types

of appendicitis that can
be fatal if left untreated?

No, I didn't.

Acute happens suddenly.

The appendix just ruptures.

But chronic appendicitis

starts slowly.

It includes every symptom
Rob was having.

And then

the appendix ruptures.

The telltale sign?

You vomit.

Which happened to Rob.

Hours before his fight

with Dino.

I thought it was stress.

He was definitely stressed,
because the supplement business

was sinking and
he was drowning financially.

And the supplements
were probably poisoning

his appendix, too.

Slowly, methodically,
every day.

S-So, if I took him
to the doctor?

You couldn't have known.

Rob was hiding it from everyone.

No further questions.

Thank you.

The A.D.A. wantin' to talk
to Sarah is a great sign.

Yeah. I just feel bad
for Tina, you know?

It's okay, take it.

Yeah.

Hello?

There was no payout.
The money came

from Julian's trust,
authorized by his mom,

like he said.
Are you sure?

Yes. I'll make copies
of everything,

and bring them to your house.

You said, "Follow the money,"
and I did.

Julian didn't take a payout.
There's no smoking gun.

So now, you let me build
the case against Senior

and figure out who helped him.

I'm a partner now.

I got to clean out the rot.

And I'll help you.

If I ask.
You will follow my lead.

As long as we get to the truth.

I'll be at your house at 4:00.

Okay. See you then.

I am so sorry for blaming you.

No, I just wish I had known

what was going on.
And listen,

I don't want Rob's part
of the gym. You run it.

Really?
Yeah.

We'll pay down his debt,
and we can be partners.

Wow. If those two can get

to the other side,
anyone can, huh?

Gives me hope.

The A.D.A. dismissed the charges
due to new evidence.

Sarah. Sarah...
Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, I'm happy.

You did it.
No, we did it.

No, you did it.

Okay, fine. I did it.

Thank you again, Denise.

I'm so glad it worked out.

It really did.
- I feel much better.
- Great.

Nothing else before you go?

You need anything from
the safety deposit box?

You read my mind.

I was just about to ask.
Follow me.

Take all the time you need.

You do.
Thanks.

Sarah! Sarah! Sarah!

Sarah! Sarah! Sarah!

Thanks.

Congratulations.

I had a great lawyer.

I know, I love Sarah.
How did you two meet?

Through my client
Cheryl, actually.

Interesting.
Tell me more.

Here's to your first case
and your first win.

And one hell of a launch
into hot associate summer.

Single and ready to mingle.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Slow down there,
party animal.

It's Claudia.

What?

Uh, Claudia, what...
what are you doing here?

I didn't know
what else to do,

you weren't returning
any of my calls or texts.

I'm sorry,
it's just been crazy.

Okay. Well...
And also...

...I didn't want to talk.

We broke up for a reason

and maybe I didn't see it
at first, but I see it now.

And the hooking up is
blurring things, so...

we need to be out of
each other's lives.

Completely.

I'm sorry.

I know it's harsh, but--
I'm pregnant.

We're pregnant.

Olympia?

What are you doing here?

The better question is,
why are you hiding

a missing Wellbrexa study
about opioids

in your safety deposit box?

Any word from Olympia?

Not yet.
She's late.

You should've gone
to the bank with her.

Not court.

Edwin, I couldn't leave Sarah--

Yes, you could have.

I didn't think
it could be true.

That you would take
something out of discovery--

Olympia, I--
Stop.

Do not say anything unless
it's the absolute truth.

I was 26 years old.

You know who my dad is.

You know what he was
to me back then.

I...

...felt invisible.

And disposable. And I just
wanted him to value me.

And he would have if you'd
just kept your head down,

and worked hard--
No, that is not true.

That's everybody else,
but that's not me.

I was starting behind...

Come on.
Not in the world, with him.

'Cause he worked his way up,

and that's why he respects you,

but why he-he could not
respect me.

Talk about the moment
you decided to violate

every ethical, legal
and moral code.

I was...

We were working late
one night and...

Shae's phone started blowing up.

She let it slip that Don
and some of his cronies

at Wellbrexa were pissed because
of something in discovery.

Did Shae know what it was?

No. But they were
coming down hard on her,

so I-I-I mentioned it to my dad.

Next thing I know, he's
on a plane to Australia to take

an "emergency in-person
meeting with the head honchos."

And then...

...he called from Sydney

and told me to go
through discovery

and get rid of the study
before anyone saw it.

And he orchestrated
that fire drill

so that you could steal it?

Uh, h-how do you know
about that?

Just answer the question,
Julian.

Yes.

W-Who-who else knows about this?

Madeline. It's enough.

We can't keep going with this.

If we didn't get
the details right, we have to.

Olympia said there was
no payout,

and she thinks that Julian
was not involved.

Because she's not on our side.

You're wrong.

She is. And I trust her.

Well, I don't.

It doesn't matter who knows.

It's going to come out.

All of this.

Well, that-that document
is literally

the only proof that it happened.

Why did you keep it?

I don't know.

I don't know. Guilt.

Shame over what I did.

A-a way to, to remind myself
or punish myself.

I-I... I should have
shredded it then.

Give it to me.

I'll do it now,
and then there's no evidence.

Do you realize
what you're asking me to do?

Protect our-our family,
the-the twins...

They need to be
protected from you.

You're just like your father.
No.

No. No. This was 14 years ago.

I was a different person.

Under his thumb.
You still are.

I'm not! I just handed in
my resignation.

I'm leaving the firm.

I'll-I'll even...

Olympia, I will give up
my law license, too,

if that will make you happy.

Happy?
I-I don't know
what else to do!

I made a huge mistake,
Olympia, okay?

And it has haunted me.

But I am not
that person anymore.

And you know who I am,
better than anyone.

I'm-I'm the person
who makes waffles for the kids,

and-and-and stays over with them
when you work late...

Yes, my father cast
a huge shadow.

And yes, it was hard
to get out from under it.

But I... I'm out.

I'm out. I am. I am.

Please. Please.

Don't let me be defined by

the worst thing that I ever did.

If not for me, for our kids.

Please.
Let's shred it.

I want us to
move forward.

Sell the house

and get back to our life.
I know we're waiting

on Olympia, but I really
need to talk to you guys.

Because I may have
done something

that was a bridge too far.

But maybe there's a way
we can undo it.

I knew it. It's Olympia.

Hold that thought, darling.
Uh--

Hello, Mrs. Kingston.

I'm sorry, do I know you?

Not yet. But I hope to.

Alfie found me somehow.

I don't know how,

he-he must be a smart kid.

I'm not following...

I think I'm his father.

And I want to be
a part of his life.

Come in.
