Original subtitles

I'm saying, it is a lot to deal with,

on top of her classes, and she just broke up with Tyler.

Emily: I need the blue ones!

I told you they're in the kitchen! One minute, Emily!

Hey, we need a united front, is what I'm saying.

We need to let her know that just because

we're not still together doesn't mean...

Are you nervous? 'Cause you're acting nervous?

I'm not, I'm not.

Stop it.

I'm trying to have a conversation.

Emily: Are you guys talking about me?

Yes, as always.

Hi.

She's worried I'm going to do drugs, and get pregnant,

and become a serial killer.

Wow.

Oh, let's go here comes Randy.

Who's Randy?

You didn't mention you were coming by.

Oh my God, you haven't told him yet?

Are you kidding me?

She met him at yoga, don't worry he's transitional.

He's not going to stick.

Hey!

You're welcome. Let's go.

Bye, Dad. Bye.

So...

You're doing yoga now?

It was going to happen.

You knew that, right? At some point.

She's a lawyer. Turner Locke, they're exclusive high end litigators.

One of her colleagues has gone missing.

Four days ago.

Family doesn't know where he is.

We checked the airports.

And this lawyer, she has information?

She thinks her senior partners are behind it.

Seriously?

Says they were arguing with the victim, the night he disappeared.

I find her credible.

I got nothing to back it up.

We covered all the bases. Forensics, interviews,

but these guys are lawyers.

They know how to keep a secret.

Give me your read on her.

You buy it, then maybe your people take a look inside.

Anna, I'm Detective Sergeant Rebecca Ellis.

I run an undercover unit, the CIU.

Undercover cops.

Yes.

Okay.

I understand you have a colleague, Idris...

Tarkani. Idris Tarkani.

I've been through this already.

I know. I'm sorry.

But I'm going to ask you to go through it again.

Idris is a friend.

And... he told me that he'd discovered something.

Something bad.

He didn't say what?

Last week. I was working late,

and Gord's office is just down the hall from mine.

Rebecca: Gord is...

Anna: Gordon Turner, he's our managing partner.

And Idris was in there with him and Chris,

Chris Locke, another partner, and they were arguing,

I couldn't make out the words,

but when Idris came out, he was... shaking,

he looked really upset,

and this is an even-keeled guy, so...

All he said;

"This place is full of demons."

And then he left,

and that was the last time I saw him.

Then, next day, he doesn't show up for a hearing...

if you knew him, it's so unlike him...

And I have this terrible feeling,

I think something may have happened to him.

So, that's it? A feeling that's all we got.

What we have is a missing lawyer and zero leads.

At 10 PM he called his mother in Karachi from his home phone.

At 3:04 the security system in his suite was breached.

The company called within 2 minutes.

By the time the police arrived, Tarkani was gone.

Daniel: Turner Locke?

Khali: The guy on top is Turner, other one is Locke.

They specialize in Corporate Crime.

Big companies do nasty things,

and these suits get them off, and make bags of cash in the process.

Tarkani said he discovered "something bad",

what's that mean?

Could be anything.

Financial misconduct, witness tampering.

Whatever it was; it got this guy disappeared.

So you've got a feeling too? Great.

Security breach at his condo,

white collar, reliable guy is gone, vanished,

with no leads, yeah, I've got a feeling.

And we're going to pursue it.

We're going to need some help. We can't pass as lawyers.

Anna's going to help us, she's waiting upstairs.

Won't be easy, you're right.

It's the kind of tough play that only an elite unit would take on.

Yeah, she got you on that one.

Rebecca: We'll figure out a cover and we need to meet your partners.

You want me to introduce you? What are you planning to do?

We don't know yet. We need an excuse to meet your partners,

talk to them.

I suppose you could be an old friend,

we could have gone to law school together.

Yeah, I could be from out of town.

Yeah, and someone else could be a new client, maybe.

What kind of client, what do they like?

You know, rich.

Nothing too slick or flashy, we take on a lot of tech money.

We can do that.

Light touch on this, we can't push.

Anna, I need you to tell us about them, Locke and Turner.

Every detail.

Everything you know.

I'll be honest. This makes me nervous.

My stomach's in knots.

Trust me, that's a good sign.

That's a feeling that never goes away.

Anna, I think you sold out.

So what have you got here Environmental Law, Human Rights Law.

Rebecca: Turner's going to be a tough one,

he's cautious and smart.

Won't be easy to fool him.

As for Locke, he's an alpha dog.

So, John, you're going to take him head on.

Make an impression.

Anna: Chris. This is John.

John Hingston, how you doing?

John was in my year at Osgoode.

I'm giving him the tour, he's in town for a conference.

She kick your ass in law school?

Every day.

That's our Anna, has an annoyingly outstanding brain.

Lovely, but annoying.

That's me alright.

Most of us have our off moments, but not Anna.

Top of the class. Every day.

That's where you look familiar.

Denver, last summer, at the ULCP,

you gave a paper on regulatory compliance.

That was a good paper. Thank you.

Although you were focused on all the wrong outcomes.

Which is a common mistake.

You should call me, I'll tell you all about it.

I'll do that. Nice to meet you.

Talk to me later.

Yes, I will.

I don't get it. Were you trying to piss him off?

Yeah, more or less. I wanted to be memorable.

Daniel: We're still boutique.

But I'm growing the company fast.

We're hiring new staff all the time.

We're not flashy or hip,

but our software's being picked up by investment bankers, stock brokers

You've Googled us...?

Oh yeah, your statistical software.

That's how you made your money?

First year, we did a million, second year, four and a half,

this year we've tripled our first quarter.

We're a success is basically what's happening

So what can we do for you?

A number of different things, really.

I've got IP issues cropping up as we gain market share,

I've got agreements I want to reopen.

The truth is, Mr. Turner,

I have a marriage that's imploding.

I don't want fifteen different lawyers, I want...

Someone I can make a connection with.

Someone I can talk to, call up in the middle of the night for advice.

Well you should know this was my father's shop,

old school, he believed in service.

Building relationships over the long term.

I'm trying to maintain his vision, and grow it even...

I'm sorry.

Go ahead.

Yup.

And?

Okay, thank you.

I'm sorry. That was a personal matter.

You were saying, about your father?

Yes, I was saying...

Would you excuse me? I'll just be a moment.

Sorry, I'm sorry.

That place is poison.

Everybody in there looks traumatized,

and I'll tell you what else.

Turner's behaving exactly like a man who got his hands dirty.

How'd Anna do?

She did fine. But?

I don't trust her, I think she's lying.

About what?

I don't know. I got a hit off her and Locke.

I think there's something going on with those two.

Alright, we've made progress...

This can't be good.

Tarkani left his car running inside.

Windows open.

Suicide?

Well, it's certainly supposed to look that way.

No question, we're dealing with a professional.

Storage locker was totally spotless, same as the condo.

No prints, fibers, hairs.

We're dealing with a professional.

Maybe a hitman or a fixer? Hired by Turner?

Or we're dealing with a suicide here.

I'm just saying, 3AM, suicide hour.

Tarkani leaves his condo, trips the alarm because he's too upset to turn it off.

Who owns the storage locker?

He does.

Go ahead. Show him what you found.

This is Damon Legault.

Key witness to a class action suit against Pelway Inc.,

This happened a week before he was supposed to take the stand.

Melinda Judd.

Just like Tarkani, her death was ruled a suicide.

Both victims were due to testify.

And the opposing counsel in both cases...

You're kidding me.

Turner Locke. On contingency.

If they lost, they would have got zero.

Too many losses in a row, they go bankrupt.

But they didn't lose.

Not even close. Net combined income: forty million.

Far as I can tell,

I'm the second person to make these connections.

The first was Idris Tarkani.

"He discovered something bad."

So Anna was right, she had gut feeling.

She said Tarkani went into Turner's office,

came out all messed up, shaking,

and he told her the whole firm was an evil place.

Turner picks up the phone...

And Tarkani ends up dead.

Question is: when Turner picked up the phone...

who did he call?

That's what we need to find out.

How do we flush out their fixer?

I've got traction with Turner.

So you go in, drop a hint that you need something shady done.

Or maybe it's your psycho ex-wife, who looks a lot like Maria.

It's risky. You'd have to take it slow.

Turn the heat up bit by bit.

You could leave an angry voicemail.

That could work.

What about your guy, Locke?

If he's part of all this, I'm sure he could use a drink.

Alright, let's get this done.

Hey. Hey.

John: Let me ask you something.

You're the expert.

You think there's something going on there?

I'm the expert in what?

In men.

Come on.

I'm positive there's something going on between those two.

He's unhappy.

He wants to touch her.

They've slept together. More than once.

You're sure?

I'd put money on it.

Okay.

Okay Anna, it's time to leave.

So if she slept with him, why wouldn't she tell us that?

She's embarrassed.

She still has feelings for him.

Okay, leave him for a minute.

So...

How's Vanessa these days?

You ever see her?

You know, sometimes.

You miss her.

Like you said, John, I'm the expert.

Maria: And that would be scotch number four.

Okay, that's long enough. Let's do this.

There he is. Where's Anna?

She just left, you just missed her.

Went back to the office.

She told me you were here, I thought I would join you.

Is that scotch? Yup.

Can I get another one? Thank you.

You going to tell me about my paper

Screw the outcomes.

This is your town, right?

So what do you do here for fun?

Daniel: I'm here right now. We don't have a lot of time.

Dan Braymore for Gordon Turner. I don't have an appointment.

Tell me again? Jim wants me to take care of what?

Khali: You're good. He's on his way up.

Sir, I'm sorry...

Look, I don't know what you want me to do here.

Maybe copy it over to Marty...

Look I gotta go, my lawyer's here.

Sorry to barge in on you like this,

I have a genuine situation. Can we talk privately?

Turner: It's okay, Cindy. Through here.

When you were here this morning, you caught me off guard.

It was a personal matter.

I don't care about that stuff, everyone's got their problems, whatever.

What I care about is can you help me?

With?

About an hour ago I got this email from my ex-wife.

You can skip the first couple of paragraphs.

She's crazy, she's certifiably insane,

she wants 50 percent of my company.

Just, just...

I'm sorry. Go ahead, whatever.

Turner: Did the two of you have a pre

Daniel: No.

She was beautiful, I was stupid.

I'd need to look at all the correspondence between you two.

Emails, stuff like that.

I don't think she cares if she tanks the whole company,

as long as she gets to screw with my head.

Like I said, she's certifiable. She's becoming a problem.

I need her to go away.

Anyways, look I'm in your hands.

You tell me, what you want me to do.

Can you tell me again who it was that recommended us?

No one. I asked around. Why?

Like I said, I looked at a number of different firms.

You guys were the best.

Well, family law's not really our thing.

So I'm going to give you a couple of names...

Just a second, alright.

I told you, I don't want fifteen different lawyers,

I want one guy.

I'm going to have plenty of other work, if that's the issue.

It was a pleasure to meet you, Daniel.

Best of luck with your divorce.

I'll walk you out.

Sixteen hour days, if I'm lucky.

I've pissed off every girlfriend I ever had.

When I say I'm working late, it doesn't mean I'm banging the secretary.

it means "I'm working late", right

It's messed up, it's messed up.

I'm the same guy,

I take this sick pride in the sacrifices I make for my work,

This is what I'm saying.

You set yourself this goal, right?

To win, to keep on winning, right?

Because what else you going to do, it's your whole life.

You're addicted, the rush after you get after a big win.

It's better than anything, better than sex.

The money, is insane.

It's all insane... It's insane.

You know what we should do is?

We should get some blow.

And we should get stupid.

You hold onto that thought. I'll be right back, alright?

Maria: Daniel's out. He's done.

John: What happened?

Nothing happened, Turner's smart, he didn't bite.

It was a long shot, we knew that going in.

We need to find this hitman.

Not now, you're drunk. You need to call it.

Where's Jesse, is he outside right now?

Yeah.

Why? What's going on?

Tell him to come in, come to the table, spill drink over me.

I'm in the mood to get into a fight.

You know what pisses me off about you, punks like you.

Jesse: I spilled a drink, you dick. You want a beating?

Is that what you want?

John: Come on hit me.

Hey, hey, hey.

Okay, John.

John, that's enough.

John!

John! That's enough!

Oh my God, what did you do?

He's bleeding. He's out cold.

What? What are you talking about?

Hey, buddy, kid!

Get up. Get up.

No, no.

The first thing this kid's going to do when he wakes up, is call the cops.

The bar is full of witnesses, everybody saw us yelling at this kid.

Oh my God, everybody knows me in there.

We gotta get him outta here.

We gotta get him to a hospital right now.

Don't touch him, just leave him.

I know somebody, okay.

I know someone, just...

I'll call him. I'm going to take care of it.

But we gotta get out of here now, okay?

We gotta get out of here.

My guy will take care of it, let's go.

Come on, let's go, let's go.

Okay, mystery man.

Now clean up the mess.

Okay, so how're we doing?

All good, no fixer yet.

Jesse's still lying there, but kid's gotta be cramping up by now.

Yeah, poor kid.

See what he did?

He got you good, kid's got some game.

Yeah, he did good.

I heard your thing went south.

That's gotta sting, getting beat by a lawyer.

You can shut up.

Here comes Rebecca.

Khali: There's Jesse.

Khali: You see him, he's on the ground.

Rebecca: Everyone keep their position.

Rebecca: He'll be here any minute.

Got him.

Hey, what are you doing?

Quiet.

Come on, get up. Let's get you on your feet.

Can you tell me what's going on?

Who the hell are you?

I know your name, Jesse.

I know where you live. You understand?

You were drunk,

you fell down, passed out, and hit your head.

You tell anyone different, I'll find you.

I'll come to your house, and I'll kill you.

Go!

Stand by.

Alright, let's pick this guy up.

What a minute, Rebecca, we should follow him.

He'll lead us straight to the lawyers.

No way, it's too risky, this guy's a pro.

We're taking him. Now.

Okay, we're going in.

Don't move, don't move!

On the car! Turn around!

Khali: His name is Brad Carlson.

He did three years for assault in his twenties,

down in Alabama.

Former military, special forces, in fact.

Worked a couple of private security contracts in Afghanistan.

Which means he's extremely violent and extremely well-trained.

Not to mention well-paid,

driving that blinged out SUV.

Law firm contracts.

How did he end up working for Locke and Turner?

Locke got him off a murder charge three years ago.

He killed his lieutenant.

He killed a superior officer?

Allegedly, yeah.

You want me to go in?

I got it.

Damon Legault. Melinda Judd.

Look familiar?

Soon as they were dead, your bosses were able to win in court.

Win big.

You have me mistaken for someone else.

I've never seen these people, any of them.

No, of course not.

When Christopher Locke makes a mess,

you show up to fix it.

Last night you threatened an undercover cop in an alley outside a bar...

What about Idris Tarkani?

Familiar?

No? Here's the thing,

we're going to hang onto you anyway.

I can hold you on uttering threats. Buy me some time.

Enough to gather all the evidence I need to charge you for the good stuff.

The murders.

Honestly, it'll probably come from your bosses,

Turner and Locke.

They're kind of going off the rails at the moment.

And they're not stupid, those two.

These are white collar guys, they'll cut a deal, guaranteed.

They'll give you up.

You're probably gonna get deemed a dangerous offender.

It's twenty-five years, minimum.

Sitting in a jail cell.

Three bland meals a day.

Locked in solitary with nothing but a toilet.

That's poor entertainment, flushing a toilet.

That's an ugly life.

John: Khali, can you zoom in closer?

Carlson: You did a background check on me, right?

So you know I served in Afghanistan,

I worked humint.

I questioned bad guys, detainees.

If a guy's lived...

rough for long enough, it's hard to do this with talking,

you have to get a little more... tactile.

Break his fingers, pull out his toenails,

choke them a little,

watch his eyes bug out.

But you're not going to do that.

You're going to comfort me.

Be my friend.

Crack a few jokes, get me some corn chips and soda,

any kind I want, you got all kinds...

We're not playing you, Brad.

We're not bluffing, we want the lawyers.

You're running UCs, you got someone inside the firm.

Am I right?

You got a weak link in there?

An assistant maybe? Sally, Jenny, is it Phillip?

Okay, let's get back on track.

So none of those guys.

Not one of the lawyers?

Good for you.

Which one, Rebecca? Which lawyer?

Someone connected to Tarkani, someone...

Is it Anna Quinn?

You think you're a hot shot, don't you?

You got some ego on the line.

Probably have your guys outside, watching this,

taking bets on just how fast you get under my skin.

You are too cute.

I'd like to open you up with a knife,

and see what's inside.

Should we go in there and get her?

No, wait.

Carlson: Ten more minutes, I'll get it out of you,

whole story.

Plan of attack, who your team is,

who you screwed on prom night.

So, you gonna charge me, or what?

I'm going in there.

Leave it!

-Rebecca listen to me. -Give me a minute.

Alright.

We can't hold this guy for long.

So we gotta move fast.

I'm not putting him back on the street.

We've got 24 hours to break this or the case is blown.

Carlson's phone.

It's the third time Locke's called in the last half an hour.

If Carlson doesn't pick up soon, he's going to panic.

Daniel: That could be good for us.

Maybe you call up Locke,

apologize for the fight in the alley.

Did everything go okay...

Maybe John doubled back, saw something, and wanted to make sure.

Jesse: Maybe he saw Carlson?

Yeah, it freaked him out.

We should use Anna. It's our best play.

We should put her to work.

How?

She calls Locke, she says she wants to talk.

Idris Tarkani was her friend, he told her everything.

About Carlson, the other victims, she knows it all.

They meet at the firm.

She agrees to say nothing on one condition.

He pays her.

A blackmail play.

Yeah.

They take the meeting, she confronts him,

gets him talking...

You need to be in there with her.

It could work. You guys old friends, she told you everything.

Plus you already know he has a fixer, from the alley...

We get Locke talking, record the conversation.

Are you saying I was right about Anna?

No, I'm saying it's our best move.

Alright. Let's work it up.

I wish I had eyes in there.

How's Khali doing?

She's finishing now, two minutes and everything's in place.

I'm doing one final check of the offices.

Anything?

Not yet.

This time of night, he'll pull up right in front.

What do I do with it?

Just try to forget it's there. It will take care of itself.

And there's no way he'll see that?

Khali: Oh no, your fine.

John: I forget sometimes.

Toss my shirt in the wash, Khali gives me hell, don't you?

That's because it's expensive.

You okay?

Yeah.

See ya.

So you're wired up too? And you have a gun, I guess?

No. No gun, but my people outside, they'll be armed.

You alright?

How did she seem to you?

Anna?

She sounds nervous on the wire.

She is, she's freaking out. She could blow this whole thing.

OK, Anna. I need to ask you something.

Is there anything else we should know?

In terms of you and Locke?

Your past, maybe?

I should have told you, I'm sorry.

It's not something I'm proud of.

He was married at the time, not to mention my boss.

I was lonely. I'd just moved to the city.

It's alright.

Do you still love him?

Anna, I need to know what I'm getting into here.

It's not possible. What he's done...

I can't possibly still feel anything for him.

But you do.

And you find it hard to go against him like this.

You feel like you're betraying him.

As crazy as that sounds.

Look. Look at me.

Anna, you're doing the right thing here, OK?

As long as I can trust you in there.

You can. Of course you can.

Good.

Are you seeing this?

Rebecca, there's two of them.

Locke brought someone.

Can you see who it is?

It's Turner.

John, he's brought Turner with him, they're on their way up.

That's all we need.

This is going to rattle Anna, but we're running out of time.

Keep her steady, we're going to take the risk.

Alright.

Daniel's right outside, he's moments away.

We'll just have to deal with it.

What's going on?

He's here, but he brought Gordon.

Oh my God.

It's OK. It's OK.

Don't panic.

We're just going to stick to the plan.

You're going to do OK. Breathe.

They're in.

What's he doing here?

John: What do you think? She doesn't trust you.

Anna: I told him everything. He knows what I know.

It's fine. My office.

C'mon, Anna, keep it together.

Damon Legault, Melinda Judd. I know you had them killed.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Chris. Don't say anything.

John told me about your fixer.

Is that what happened to Idris

What do you want? Money?

Be quiet.

Is that what she wants?

She wants half a million.

I want to know why you did it.

Chris: Anna, listen to me.

Anna: You just wanted to win your cases

Did you ask your fixer how he was going to do it?

If it was going to be quick and painless, or you just didn't care?

Chris, don't talk.

You killed those people?

I loved you, and this is who you are?

You're a guy who picks up the phone

and calls a hitman if he's losing a case?

It's insane!

And Idris, you knew Idris, he was your employee.

You walk by his office every day.

He has kids.

We're done!

This is your sick way to feel better about yourself?

Because this is beyond sick.

It's so low and ugly and I don't even want to look at you.

You get what a bad person you are?

You're the worst kind of person...

Shut up!

What are you doing?

Chris ...

Shut up! Shut up everyone! Shut up!

Rebecca: What's happening?

There's a weapon in play. What are we doing here?

Stay put. Wait for my order.

John's in there, we'll take his cue.

We're still looking for a confession.

Chris, please.

This is Officer Khali Bhatt. 10-33.

Bay and King. Send an ETF unit now.

Chris, calm down buddy.

Put the gun down, Chris.

Chris, please.

I knew it! I told you to stop!

Turner...

Shut up!

"We're gonna pay for it," that's what I said.

You didn't say those words!

I did!

You said this is my father's company,

we're in debt, and we're gonna lose it!

One time!

Turner, shut up!

One time is what I agreed to! That's it!

You had to keep going!

Turner!

This is where it ends.

What are you going to do, kill her?

Kill both of them?

Rebecca...

Chris, give me the gun.

You're going to kill Anna?

Please...

You're right.

That's it.

It's over.

No,no, no!

Get in there, go, go!

Get down! Get down!

Move , move!

Got him?

Yeah.

Hey.

How's Anna doing?

She's in rough shape.

Can you blame her?

Well, it's not your fault.

You saw what happened.

Turner confessed.

Good.

What about Carlson?

I'm not done with that guy.

What?

My entire career, I've been told by people -

the higher-ups, my wife, my ex-wife -

that I care too much, that I go too far,

and I take too many risks.

The funny thing is,

they were never saying that to be nice.

They meant it as a bad thing.

But I always just saw it as part of the -

Your job.

You stuck to your instincts about Anna, that took guts.

You're the first cop I've met in a long time who gets this job.

Gets what it takes.

Well, I get what it does to people.

To their lives. Their marriage.

I'll see you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

Anna? It's Rebecca Ellis.

Listen, I thought you might need a friend right now.

Why don't we meet somewhere? We can just talk.

Hi.

What happened to your face?

Oh you know.

You should see the other guy.

I gotta be honest.

I hate the fact that you're seeing somebody right now.

But, it is what it is.

And you're moving on, which is good.

Eventually. you're going to get over me.

But, that's life, right?

Have you been listening to a motivational tape or something?

He's a good choice by the way, he's got no criminal record.

I mean he could do with using his seat belt more often,

but I guess you can't have everything in a man.

You ran his name? I can't believe you

That is so off the charts, out of line.

But he's clean?

As a whistle.

Clean as a brand new day.
