Okay, so ivory or maroon?

Ivory is classic.

Maroon gives you that spot
of color; it's a little hipper.

I don't know, I think we
should stay with classic

all the way
down the line.
No, no, no, Nick.

We got to be hip, okay?

This is the Las Vegas Legal Fund
that we're hosting, okay?

Think young crowd.
So? So?

You know what,
I will make it work.

How about menu?

Asian fusion.

Italian!
Italian?

The hell with fusion.

Again, Italian?
Whoa, whoa.

Italian with you,
all the time.

We will make it
work. It's so easy.

We'll make it
totally work.

Passed hors
d'oeuvres or buffet?

Buffet.

Tacky, Nick.
Buffet.

It's got a carving station.

Tacky, tacky, tacky, tacky.
People want food.

Guys!

Come on, is there anything

that you don't argue about?

How about the music act?

Frank Sinatra Jr.
Frank Sinatra Jr.

Great, and while
we're at it,

why don't we
get Elvis?

Oh, come on.
Be realistic.

I'm looking at local
jazz ensembles, okay?

Okay, we get it.
All right, great.

Great.

Carly Donovan is really
hitting on my cell phone here.

Blake Donovan's
calling me.

What the hell's
so urgent?

Jess, thank you so
much for helping us.

Yeah, thank you.
I realize this must be awkward

now that you guys
are divorced...

Separated!

Thanks, guys.
Carly, hey, it's Pete.

Nick Morelli.
What?

Blake, calm
down, calm down.
Slow down, Carly.

Hold on, hold on.
Yeah, just slow down.

All right, don't
say anything.

Sit tight.

Dead body.

In their yoga studio?

Hey, Mark.

Hey, Nick.
Hey, Pete.

Here?
Yeah, go ahead.

Who is he?

Dustin Copley, our
master yoga teacher.

Looks like he's only been dead
for a few hours.

Where were you guys
this morning?

At home.
At our house.

We were home
together.

We both got
a late start.

You find him?

No, our manager Kurt Faber
found him and called us.

Kurt? Is that him

blabbing to
the detective over there?

Yeah.

Look, I didn't
do this.

We didn't do this.

Who said that you did?

No one.

But they, uh,

sure act like
they think we did.

All right, let me handle this.

Hey, Nick, Pete.
Detective.

Our clients were both home
together this morning.

Yeah, that's exactly
what they told me.

But I'd like to ask
Mr. and Mrs. Donovan

if either of them
recognize the voice

on this message we just found
on the deceased's phone.

Hey, Russell, listen.

I thought about your proposal
on the drive home,

and I just wanted to say,
you can go straight to hell.

You try something like this,
we will bury you.

Think I'm joking?

Try me.
- All right, look,

my clients are not answering
any questions now.

Okay, here's the problem.

That's your cell number,
Mr. Donovan,

there's someone's
blood in your sink,

and we found these
in your office.

Two plane tickets to India
with no return date.

You two running off
for some reason?

Don't answer that.
It's a research trip!

Okay. Blake,
Carly Donovan,

you're under arrest for

the murder of
Russell Copley.

What?
Oh, come on.

You have the right

to remain silent.

You have the right
to an attorney.

We are their attorneys!

Hey, easy on those cuffs!

Pretty tense
for a yoga studio, huh?

That phone message
was out of context.

And our trip
was for research.

We-we planned it
months ago.

All right, we'll circle
back to all that.

Help us fill in some
of the blanks here.

We helped you incorporate,
what, two years ago?

Uh, almost three.

And our business took off.

Slowly at first,
but then

we made a great hire.

Russell Copley.

The dead guy?

Look,

the yoga industry
has become

all about the personality
of the leader,

and we found a really
good one with Russell.

We do three times the business
of our nearest competitor.

Well, why the
angry messages?

We've done such great business
over the past year

that we started
looking into franchising

around Russell's name
and technique.

Which we developed
with him.

We told him about our plans
two months ago,

made him a very
fair offer,

and he said no.

Said he wanted
a full partnership

or he was leaving.

You were fighting over business.

Yes, but when I said
we'd "bury him,"

I meant legally.

How do you think Russell's blood

got into your private bathroom
at the studio?

I-I don't know.

I don't know.

But it wasn't all that private.

He-he had access
to that bathroom himself.

We're in real trouble here,
aren't we?

Well, Blake,

prosecution's going to say
that you two killed Russell over

a business dispute and then were
going to hightail it to India.

That's not true.

Look, let's get you bailed out,

and we'll take it from there,
all right?

Come on. Look
at this idiot.

Move!

Move!
Move!

What else they got on them?

Their fingerprints
are everywhere.

Well, it's Carly and Blake's
freaking business.

They belong everywhere.

Weapon?
Nope.

.38 slug in the yoga
studio wall though.

Shot in the chest,

passed through his heart
and out his back.

Russell was dead
before he hit the floor.

Check this out. In a statement
from Kurt Faber--

he's the yoga studio manager
who found the body--

"The moment I saw Russell lying
there, I thought, oh, my God,

"Carly and Blake killed him.

They had so many reasons to."

Talk about throwing them
under the bus.

Wait a minute.

That's the manager, right?
Mm-hmm.

Well, he had just as much access

as Blake and Carly.

We should have Tony
check him out,

see if there's
a motive.

Oh, let me do it.

No, it's my car.
My car!
Shh.

Hey, Zoey.

Hey, Judge Owens' office
just called.

Wants to see you both
in chambers.

What? Now? What for?

His assistant wouldn't say,
but she did say, "ASAP."

All right, we're on our way.

Oh, Nick, are you about to...

Okay, here we go! Wow!

All right.

Sorry, ma'am!

Next time, I'm driving.

You don't have a car.

Right.

Hey, Nick.

Good evening, Judge.

Hey, Pete.
Come on in.
So what's up?

Nick, I wanted to talk to you

about your intentions
to represent

Carly and Blake Donovan.

ADAs Cole
and Nicholson

are concerned.
The State objects to the firm

of Morelli and Kaczmarek
representing both defendants.

What?
Of course you do.

I mean, we've been
beating them consistently.

This isn't about

winning or losing, it's about
a conflict of interest.

Carly and Blake Donovan signed
waivers of conflict, Your Honor.

They want a united defense.
Absolutely.

Well, we think that's
going to change, big-time.

We've obtained multiple
witness statements

and evidence from

the deceased's home
that establishes unequivocally

Russell Copley had a year-long
affair with Carly Donovan.

Ho. We don't acknowledge
any affair.

Even if that were true,
Your Honor,

that does not
take away my clients'

Sixth Amendment
right to

representation of their choice.

Cristalli and Saggese made law
on this very point

in Titus, Your Honor.
Titus.

Completely different case,
Kaczmarek.

The court should avoid

even the appearance
of a conflict.

Gentlemen, there
are plenty of

fine defense attorneys
in the city of Las Vegas.

Like you give a rat's ass!

Hey!

Hold it.

I'm inclined to agree with
the State on this, counselors.

Now, your firm may represent

one defendant, but not both.

I want you to decide
which one so that

we can keep this on schedule.
All right?

We'll reconvene in,
what, 15 minutes?

Sounds good.
That's good for me.

Just one.

Don't slam the door, Nick.

Sons of bitches.

Look at them.

Clowns.
They're scared of us.

That's what
this is about.

Yeah.

Look, Pete, uh,
I've represented Blake

longer than we've even
known each other.

I got to go with Blake.

Well, I can't drop
Carly; she needs me.

I know, but Blake is the one
they're going to try to say

killed him out of jealousy,
so we got to go with him.

They're going to paint Carly
as the jilted lover.

I know, I know, but listen,
you got to find a way

to talk to Carly, you know?
Just tell her she's out,

that's all.

I don't have to do anything.

Yeah, you do...
No, I don't.

Nick, I-I realize you're older,
and you're bigger,

but I'm 50% of this equation,

and sometimes I think you forget
this is a partnership.

Well, it's just
paperwork. Really.

I mean, look, if you really
want to represent Carly,

why don't we just tear it up?

You know, just for a while.

I mean, that's what
you really want?

Yeah. Okay.

Good idea. Let's do it.

Really?

Really. I think
it's a good strategy.

As you say, it's just paperwork.

Yeah.

Uh, Your Honor...

...I would like to
continue representing

Carly Donovan.

And I would like to continue
representing Blake Donovan.

Now, listen to me

very carefully.

If you break up
your partnership,

then you must do it, not just
in name, but in practice.

You will not share offices,
assistants, resources.

You will build
your own defenses.

Hmm?

I'm not threatening.
I'm promising.

I will be monitoring.

Am I making myself clear?

Yes, Your Honor.

Morelli-Kaczmarek
is no more.

I want you both to understand
that this is not forever.

Pete and I

have both made
a decision

to make a strategic move

so Pete can represent Carly

and I can represent Blake.

Yeah, but why do we have
to split up

because of Carly's
stupid affair?

Very good question, Zoey.

The judge believes
it's a conflict of interest.

Just remember-- no
matter what happens,

we care about you both
equally and value

what each of you bring
to this operation.

And that
being said,

Lisa, you come
with me.

Whoa, whoa...
What, you don't like Zoey?

This has nothing to do
with liking Zoey.

I thought you said
that Zoey was ready

to take on
more responsibility.
No,

I said she has to start
acting more responsibly.

Don't play dumb
with me.

Look at her.

Poor Zoey.

Fine. Okay, I pick Zoey.
You're on my team.

Yes, yes! Thank you,
thank you, thank you.

I won't let you down.
I won't let you down.

Oh, does this mean
we're going to get new offices?

Please say yes.

Yes, you do.
No, we don't.

Nick and Lisa are going to be
the ones who are moving.

Never.
This was your idea.

It was your idea.
Oh, yeah, but
you jumped at it

like a drag queen
at a free pair

of nylons.
Because you backed
me into a corner.

I didn't back you
into a corner.
Oh, yes, you did.

Okay, okay, come on, is
this really necessary?

There's plenty of room
for all of us in this office.

No, we got to play
this one by the book.

Pete's right, you know,
the judge was adamant.

All right,
Pete, flip?

Let's do it.
You call it.

Tails.
Heads.

Oh, come on.
What, you gonna
question my integrity

in front of my new team?

You're a tyrant.
You should work on that.

Come on, Zoey.

Zoey, come on.

All right, Lisa,
you get Pete's office.

Yeah! Yeah!

Yeah, man.

How'd you find this?

Craigslist.

This place is depressing.

Can I go run some
errands or something?

No. You got to get
the phone company in here,

Internet, gas, electric.
I want this to be

a fully functioning office
by 5:00 today.

Then I want you to go back
to our old offices.

When Nick isn't looking,

grab as many supplies
as you can carry out of there.

Are you going to be
a tyrant like Nick?

Hey, don't call him that;
it's disrespectful.

You did.
Yeah, but

it's different.
Oh, yeah, how?

Just don't call
him that, okay?

Okay. Geez.

Tyrant.

Ha.

Good instincts, Nick, on
that yoga studio manager.

That guy had
plenty of motive

to want to kill
Russell himself.

Yeah?

Kurt Faber was
such a slimeball,

he was actually trying
to steal Russell away

to start his
own yoga studio.

Behind Carly
and Blake's back?

Mm-hmm, and when
Russell backed out,

he lost a lot of money.

And Faber was the one
who "found" Russell's body,

is that right?
Yeah.

Great job, Tony.
Another thing.

I looked through the discovery,

and cops talked
to five neighbors

the D.A. didn't put
on their witness list.

I talked to
all of 'em.
And?

Three of 'em didn't see
or hear anything.

The fourth said she thought
she heard a shot,

but on the wrong day.

And then there's
Gordon Gardner.

He lives above the pharmacy
across the street.

Saw someone entering
the yoga studio

just before the murder
took place.

You'll see why the D.A.

didn't put him on
the witness list.

"I happened to look
down the block

"and noticed someone
entering the studio.

"I couldn't tell if it
was a man or a woman;

"I saw them from behind.

"About five-eight with...

distinctively red hair"?

That's great.

Right?
We got a reliable
witness who says

the killer had
"distinctively red hair,"

and our clients don't.

Hey, Pete,
get in here!

Uh, Nick,

you want me to take
it over to Pete's?

Uh, yeah, yeah.

Oh, a-a-and ask
him if he wants

to meet me at
the yoga studio

in an hour, you
know, just to...

you know, go
through things.

You got it, boss.

Thank you, Lisa.

No problem, Nick.

Law offices
of Nicholas Morelli.

I hope you're having
a terrific Tuesday.

Slut.

This is Honey Bean.
How can I help you?

I'll transfer.
Thank you.

Hi!

I'm Honey Bean. Hope you're
having a terrific Tuesday.

Can I help you?

Sure, give me my pen and
the keys to the supply room.

No need to get up.
I know my way around.

Think you're missing a
button, little sister.

Hi. This is Honey Bean.

Hey, look at you.

Wow, when'd you pick this up?

Got it this morning.
What do you think?

Well, it's...
it's a beauty.

What, come... are you kidding
me? You don't like it?

Come on, Nick, this thing
is cherry.
No, no, no,

I think it's great.
I think it's great.

I just thought
you wanted me

to help you pick one
out, that's all.

I...
Oh, hey, man,
I-I didn't want to bug you.

Thank you so much
for sending Tony over.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This is going to be big.

Yeah.
Morelli and Kaczmarek.

I thought I heard
an ambulance.

Hey, guys,
just to clarify,

the judge needed
you two to stay

you know, apart, like
not near each other.

Say "cheese" for the judge,
guys. Big smile.
Get in. Get in.

Come on.
There it is.

Perfect.
Look, we just ran into
each other, you big snitches.

Yeah, I'm on my way
to a yoga class.

And me, I'm going
to the, uh,

Vegan Rainbow
Restaurant.

For the sprouts or their...
you know, their hummus?

No, their baby ghanoush.
Look, we're
allowed to meet

as cocounsel,
you dumbasses.
Yeah.

what are
you two jokers doing here?

Search warrant.
What, in case you
missed something

the first three times?
Well, I wouldn't
put it past them.

They missed the redhead.
What?

Yeah, eyewitness statement
from your own discovery

says the killer
had "red hair."

"Distinctively
red hair."

And my client--

okay, what does he have, like,
brownish hair almost, right?

My client's a blonde.
Yeah.

Why don't you get
your facts straight

before you start indicting
innocent people?
Yeah.

Uh-huh.
Siegfried and Roy.

How's your veggie-slush?

What's in it again?

Mmm,

it is all organically grown
spinach, tomatoes,

celery, eggplant

and natural prairie grass.

"Natural prairie grass" means

there's cows and buffalo
that walk and pee on it.

Not working for you?

No, I-I just never really
got the vegan thing.

I was always brought up
thinking that the world

was set up around one species
eating another species.

Well,

we like to look at it
like this:

we are the sentient beings
on this planet,

so we can make choices
that other animals can't make,

like getting
our protein from soy

or getting our iron from beets
or getting our shoes

from synthetics.

You don't wear
leather, either?

No.

But you know what?
I am not judging.

Hey, me, either.
Hey,

at least you're curious.

Yeah.
Yeah.

So what brings you in today?

Oh, I'm actually waiting to
talk to somebody next door.

I'm the attorney
for Blake Donovan.

Oh, God, that's so terrible
what happened.

I know, I know.

Well, you know 'em,
obviously; you're next door.

Yeah, Blake is...
he's a wonderful guy.

Driven, but very,
very caring.

And Carly?

Okay, she can be violent,
out of control even.

I mean, she even
attacked me one day.

Thank God Kurt was there
to pull her off of me.

Kurt?

That's their manager.

Why would she attack you?

Oh.
- Nick!

Get in here.

Okay.

Uh, thank you so much.

Uh...
To go?

To go... away.

Thanks for the heads-up on the
eyewitness who saw the redhead.

Otherwise, we would have been
real confused,

finding something like this
in your clients' pipes.

So listen, we want
the truth now.

Whichever of your clients
steps forward gets immunity.

The other--
well, that'll be on you.

Yeah, that's what
they're offering, Blake.

All right.

That's right.

Carly says no deal.

No hesitation?
None.

We're not taking it.

How about Blake?

No deal.

He said this guy couldn't
break 'em up in life,

can't do it in death.

All right, well, then,
we're still on the same team.

Look, the only reason
they offered this deal

is 'cause this case
is completely circumstantial.

We hit hard that
this Kurt Faber guy had access

and he lost his life savings

when Russell backed out
of their business deal.

Yeah, we throw suspicion
his way, create enough doubt,

jury acquits
both Carly and Blake.

Yeah, but we have no idea

what this guy's going to say
when he gets up there.

I've done my homework.

You need to do yours.

Why? What'd you find out?

You know I can't answer that.

Look, we go after the manager
really hard together,

and if it works and we're
successful, God bless.

But if not...

Okay.

You do what you got to do,

I'm gonna do
what I got to do.

Why don't you get this one?

The victim's blood

was found
in the defendants' sink,

an extramarital
affair

and a bitter business dispute
provide motive,

and then
there's this...

...worn by the killer
as a disguise, then flushed

down a toilet.

Where was it?

In the plumbing pipes
beneath the studio

owned by the
defendants.

Detective,

your police report
describes

the blood evidence you found
as "trace evidence."

What... what...
what does that mean?

Trace evidence is
evidence which occurs

when two materials come in
contact with each other.

Okay, like, uh, blood
and a porcelain sink.

Exactly.
Great.

I have a definition here
of "trace" that says

"an extremely small amount."

Does that also apply here?

Uh, yeah, it was
a small amount,

but it was the
victim's blood.

A small amount from--
let's say-- a paper cut

that one might have gotten
mishandling freshly printed

yoga class schedules?

Well, that's
possible, but...

Okay, or maybe
a small amount from a sliver

after teaching yoga all day
on a hardwood floor?

Yeah, possibly.
Thank you so much.
Nothing further.

Mr. Morelli?

No questions,
Your Honor.

Mr. Gardner,
you testified

that you observed
an individual with red hair

enter the studio,

but that you couldn't
tell this redhead's

ethnicity or gender.
Is that correct?

I saw them from behind.

Them? Them?

Was there more than one?
No. Um...

I meant the person that
I saw, the individual.

Right, right, right,
the person you saw,

who you can't
otherwise narrow down

in even the broadest of terms.

Male, female...

Black, white, green, red...

Are you for certain that this
was, in fact, even a human?

Objection! Your Honor,

he's mocking the witness.

Sustained.
Mr. Morelli...

Sorry. In any event,

you have no ability to claim

that this red-wigged,
red-haired person

was my client
or his wife.

No.
Could have
been somebody else

who frequents
the yoga studio, right?

A student, maybe a manager?

Yeah, I guess.
No further questions. Thank you.

Mr. Kaczmarek?

Mr. Morelli said it all.

No questions.

The State calls Kurt Faber
to the stand.

Do you solemnly swear
to tell the truth,

the whole truth
and nothing but the truth?

I do.

Mr. Faber, you're the manager
at the yoga studio

owned by the defendants,
is that right?

For the last two years. Yes.

And you have keys

that could have given you
access and opportunity

to kill Russell Copley?

Excuse me?

Let's be frank,

Mr. Faber. It's no secret

that you and Russell Copley
disliked each other,

and if I were
a defense attorney,

looking to throw suspicion

at somebody other
than my client,

I might ask you

if you were angry
with Russell Copley.

Were you angry
at Russell Copley?

Yes. He screwed me.

I-I'm sorry.

He backed out of a deal to
open our own yoga studio.

Cost me my life savings.

But yet, here you are.

You're not a suspect
in this case.

No charges have been filed.

What is your understanding
as to why that is?

I guess because I didn't do it.

Or because I was
at St. Luke's that morning.

My sister's on the cancer ward.

I'm sure we all
wish her well, Mr. Faber.

So you have an alibi?

Yes.

Okay. Now that we've got
that out of the way...

In your witness statement,
you told police,

"The moment I saw
Russell lying there,

"I thought Carly
and Blake killed him.

They had so
many reasons to."

What reasons are those?
- Objection, Your Honor.

Foundation.
Calls for speculation.

Sustained.

All right,
let's try it this way.

Based on what you observed,
what led you specifically

to believe that Carly Donovan

had animosity
towards Russell Copley?

Just Carly?

Yes, I'm just
asking about Carly.

They were arguing
over the business

and their affair.
Their affair?

Yes. Carly didn't seem too happy
when it ended.

I heard her say twice
with my own ears,

"I wish you were dead."
She got what she
wished for, didn't she?

Objection.
Nothing further. Your witness.

Deal's still on the table, guys.

Whoever wants to step forward.

Mr. Faber,

did you have an opportunity
to observe

Blake Donovan's response
at learning

that his wife
was having an affair?

Yes, I did.

Can you describe
that response?

It was pure rage.

Pure rage?

Mr. Faber, after everything
that you saw and heard

at the yoga studio,
if you were to step

into the decedent's shoes,

hypothetically, of
the two defendants,

which one would you say
is more dangerous?

Blake.
Objection, Your Honor.

I ask that the jury
be instructed

to disregard.
Sustained.

It's an admissible
hypothetical,

Your Honor, based
purely on what he...

I have ruled!

The jury will disregard
the question and answer.

Move on, counsel.

Pure rage.

I have nothing
further, Your Honor.

Mr. Faber, did you
witness a fight

between Carly Donovan
and the owner

of the Vegan Rainbow
Restaurant,

Ms. Amanda Purnell?

Yes, I did.

Would you describe
what happened?

I was the last customer there.

Carly came in, screaming,
and grabbed Amanda by the neck.

I-I had to pull her off.
- Carly came in,

grabbed Amanda around the neck
and was screaming?

What was she screaming?
Objection. Hearsay.

Exception to the hearsay
rule, Your Honor.

Excited utterance.

Carly made statements
spontaneously

while she was
strangling Amanda.

Bull. In no way
does this meet...

Objection overruled.

Witness will answer
the question.

She screamed
Amanda was a lying whore,

and that she had found
something of Amanda's

in Russell's bedroom.

The bedroom of the man
that she was supposedly

no longer
committing adultery with.

Is that correct?
Objection!

Sustained.
Have you
ever had to pull Blake

off of anyone
to save their life?

No, I did not.
Of course not.

Thank you.

Witness may
step down.

I mean, if I were on the
jury, I'd think I did it.

Well, the testimony
about you attacking Amanda

does not help.

But it's nothing
we can't get past.

I just don't know what
to believe anymore, Nick.

I mean, she clearly
was lying to me.

You know, I've been
thinking about what you said

about Carly being
the most likely suspect.

I saw her apron and a pair
of "do-me" boots at Russell's,

and I just lost it.

I want there in a weak moment.
It was wrong.

But I didn't kill him.

And if I didn't do it,

then who did?

Okay. Hold on.

Look, what I argued in court
was a tactic. Pure tactic.

I have to create
reasonable doubt. So does Nick.

I don't know what
to believe anymore.

'Cause, Nick,

there's something
I need to tell you.

What?

Our alibi.

It's a lie.

What are you saying?

What part isn't true?

That we were together.

Truth is, I was out jogging,

and she was-- she says...

I was asleep.

I don't know
where Blake was.

We lied because
we needed an alibi...

...and because
we believed each other,

and I just don't...

...know what to believe
anymore, Pete.

All right, Carly.

Listen up.

This case is based completely
on circumstantial evidence.

We just stick to our defense,
and I will bet you...

Ten to one odds that the jury
will clear both of you.

But what if they only clear
one of us?

I didn't kill anyone.

I'm not going to prison

for something
I didn't do.

I'll testify.

She lied.

I'm taking the deal.

I want the deal.

Hey.

Hey.

Neutral ground, huh?
Yeah. Neutral ground.

Listen, we're breaking all
kinds of ethical rules here,

so let me just get to it.

Nick, I wanted to
give you a warning

before I throw you
under the bus.

Carly's going to
take the deal.

It's what she wants.

Well, I appreciate
the heads-up,

but you can't take the deal,

because I'm taking the deal.

That's what Blake wants.

What...

You weren't even
going to tell me?

I sent you five messages.

You sent me five messages?
Yeah.

Why didn't you call?

Because I didn't want
to hear your damn voice.

That's why. Because
you pissed me off!

I pissed you off?
Yeah!

You turned on me
in open court,

for crying out loud.

Well, you gave me no choice.
You did the same thing to me!

Well, that's because
you kicked my ass

with that cheap shot
hypothetical crap.

You blindsided me with
the vegan lady fight.

Pete, I had no choice!

Come on, I got
to protect my client.

Carly's taking the deal.

Oh, yeah?

Not if I get to Cole first.

Hello?

Hey, Nick. It's me.

I just called you.

Hello?

It's me again, Nick.
I did it again.

How do you do that?

Hello?!
Really, Nick?

Three times?
Cut it out!

You have caller I.D.
Screw you! Screw...

Hey. Back off.

Back off!

Oh, geez!
That was my...

That's a brand-new phone.

What are we doing?

I'll tell you what we're doing.

We're doing Cole's
work for him.

That's what we're doing.

That's exactly
where he wants us.

Right here.

We let a case
get between us.

Dump Carly?

She was my client.
You tried to railroad me.

But Blake was my friend.

I'm your friend.

I'm your friend.

Nick.

I'm your partner.

You are?

Come here.

Come on. I hate to hug!

Come on. Show
affection, Nicky.

All right. Here. Here.
That's the best I can do.

Well, all right.

All right.
All right.

All right!

Good.

Now we got to figure out
a way to fix this damn thing.

My place is closer.

I bet I could beat
your Pontiac in my Cadillac.

I don't want to...

Go, go, go!

Welcome to the law offices
of Pete Kaczmarek.

Esquire.

Wow.

Hi, Zoey.

Good evening,
Mr. Arnold.

Mr. what?

What did you
call me?

What did she just call me?

Uh, Mr. Arnold.

As in Benedict Arnold.

Come on.

You hire someone
to replace her?

Well, I-I need someone

to answer the damn phones.

Well, she'll get over it.

Zoey, come on. Get
over it. Will you?

All right,
what do we do?

Where do we
start with this?

Okay.

I was trying to figure out...

What the...

Ah, crap.

Yeah. Sorry about that.
You get what you pay for,

and this place is a dump.

No kidding.

Where's the can?
In the back.

This is an expensive suit, Pete.

All right.

What I think is that
their case is still

entirely circumstantial.

The only problem is,
is that red wig, you know?

Pete. Pete.

That's the smoking gun.
We got to find a way

to take care of that.
Nick! Nick!

Don't go in!
Pete!

Your bathroom floor is flooded!

These are new calfskins!

Yeah, sorry, buddy.

The, uh, AC
ducts, toilets,

phone lines--
everything's connected

in a very unhealthy
way in this building.

It's like living in a commune
where at anytime anyone else...

What?

No. This building.

This, uh... this commune.

Suddenly I love it. I think
you're going to love it, too.

What?

Zoey, call Carly, call Blake.

We're going to need blueprints
of their yoga studio.

It's all about connections.

Bingo! The pipes
from the yoga studio

and the vegan restaurant
are connected.
Yeah, look.

They form a Y leading to the
main pipe out of the building.

So it was found here
in the cleanout?
Yeah.

So, the wig could
have come

from here, the
yoga studio,

or here, the
vegan restaurant.

And since the
restaurant

has a public bathroom,

it opens up a pool
of potential suspects

who could have dumped the wig.

You're good.

I got to them right
before closing. Last pair.

And cashmere socks.

Zoey, I've missed you every
second that you've been gone.

Oh, yeah? What about Honey Bean?

Uh, hello.

I'm not in the office today
because I've been fired.

You're the best.

All right, uh, question is

whether or not
we argue that

it could have been
anyone who dumped the wig

in the restaurant bathroom.

A yoga student,
someone off the street...

Or we set our sights
directly on Amanda.

Amanda? The little vegan girl?

Carly thought
she was sleeping with Russell.

She told me that she found

Amanda's Vegan Rainbow
apron there

and a pair of "do-me" boots
in Russell's bedroom.

That's why
she confronted her.

Uh, "do-me" boots?

You know, uh, "do-me" boots?

Knee-high, leather jobs,

meant to turn guys on,
"do-me" boots.

Leather?

Yeah. Usually.
Right, ladies?

Yeah.
Mm-hmm.

Huh.

Amanda's vegan.

She doesn't wear leather.

She gave me a bunch of grief
for my calfskins.

Wait. I just bought you shoes
made out of baby cows?

So maybe the apron she found
at Russell's was Amanda's,

but the boots were
somebody else's.

So there's a third girl here?
A mystery girl?

Yeah, so Carly confronts
Amanda about the boots,

and that tips Amanda off

that Russell's actually
having an affair on her

with a girl number three.

Yeah, a leather-boot-wearing
animal killer!

Yeah.

These yoga guys
make out like bandits.

Till they end up dead.

Yeah. Well,
we've got motive.

Opportunity.
Access.

Damn. We're good together.

Thomas Cole.
- Hey, Tommy.

Morelli. Deal time?

Yeah, Cole, I wanted to talk
to you about plumbing.

Plumbing? What?

Wait. Hang on a second.

Thomas Cole.

Hey, buddy. Got
some intel for you

about Blake and Carly's
neighbor, Amanda Purnell.

Vegan lady, loves rainbows,
wouldn't hurt a fly?

Get to it, all right?
Morelli's waiting.

Well, it turns out that that
fight that Amanda and Carly had

was because Amanda
was also sleeping with Russell.

That fight damages you.

Russell banging
the entire New Age community

doesn't mean jack...

Hang on.

Yeah, about the plumbing...

All right, Morelli, listen,
if you want this to...

Morelli?
Morelli?

Nick, Nick, you're
really trying my patience.

Hang on!

What do you want?

You remember
our crack investigator Tony?

Well, guess what charge
you will find

on Amanda's
credit card statement.

You're going to find that
Amanda Purnell purchased

a wig and a gun the day before
she killed Russell Copley.

Nick and I
are preparing a motion

to dismiss all charges
against both of our clients

based on prosecutorial
misconduct,

ignoring
exculpatory evidence

and vindictive prosecution.

Unless, of course, you want
to save us the trouble

and just do the
right thing.

Lisa, get your crap
out of my office now.

I know it's still in there.

Already on it.

Geez, nice to have
you back.
Are you kidding me?

You want me back.
Alone with Nick?

Not pretty. Believe me, I know.

I heard that.
Good. I meant it.

Screw you,
Mr. Kaczmarek.

Screw you, Mr. Morelli.
Where's my damn tux?

On your damn chair!

Can you help me
with my tie?
Hey, do it yourself.

I don't know how to do it!
- Hey, you.

I got your dress!
Thank you.

What are these?
Oh, those
are honey beans.

You got to try one.
They're delicious.

Morelli-Kaczmarek.

Oh, it is. Thank you.

All right, hurry up, guys!

The car's almost here!

Jess, I don't know.
I just don't know.

God knows, we didn't help,
we didn't do a thing,

and you... you
just did it.

Hmm.
It's perfect.

It's a little bit of Pete,
it's a little bit of me.

It's... Oh, Jess,
thank you so much.

Oh, you're welcome.

No. No, thank you.

Thank you.
Thank you.

Great. It's gonna be a surprise
for both of you tonight.

Hi. Hey.

So that's the
new boyfriend.

It's not
a boyfriend.
I don't know.

They look like
a couple to me.
They're not
a couple.

That's... he's a
gay guy at work

she... she goes to
these functions with.

Oh, hey, Nicky, check it out!

What is...
what's this?
It's tuna tartar.

Come on, you can have
your meatballs later.
Fish?

Try some
of this. Yeah.
No, I don't
want any fish.

I want a Scotch! Give
me a Scotch, Zoey.

Will you?
Hey, get it
yourself.

What the...
Drink later.
Eat now.

Come on, try this.
You're gonna love it.
I'm not gonna love it.

Trust me, Nicky.
For once, will you trust me?

I don't like that
kind of raw fish.

Have a bite.
Eat the tuna tartar.
Morelli. Kaczmarek.

Mr. Sinatra.
Mr. Sinatra.

That was my grandfather's name.
Call me Frank.

Frank.

I read in the Sun and the RJ

that you guys are fighting.

Well, um,
listen, Frank...

He was a total jerk
in the courtroom the other day

and almost...
You fantastic idiots.

You have the finest,

most successful law practice

in the whole state of Nevada,

and you want to blow it.

Don't you guys realize you two
make each other possible?

I'm gonna go up
and sing a song.

Want to have some fun?
Come on up and sing with me.

Um...
I don't...

I'd trade the two of you
for a good Girl Scout. Come on!

Will you welcome
Frank Sinatra Jr.?

Come on!

I don't know about that.

Who loves you, Nicky?
I love you, Petey.

Yeah.
Yeah!

Oh!

Love you, baby.
Oh, that face.
