[ CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING ]

OH, I HAVEN'T BEEN IN THIS PLACE
IN QUITE A WHILE.

THAT'S RIGHT. JARED TELLS ME
YOU'RE A VEGAN NOW.

I'LL HAVE THE RIB-EYE.

JUST KNOCK OFF THE HORNS
AND WIPE ITS ASS.

[WAITER] VERY GOOD, SIR.
AND FOR YOU, SIR?

NO, THANK YOU.

SO WHAT'S YOUR CHOLESTEROL NOW,
LEONARD? 230, 240?

I'M NOT THE ONE WITH
HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, STANTON.

WELL, IT ONLY TICKS IN

WHEN I'M IN THE PRESENCE
OF TIRESOME PEOPLE.

LISTEN, I APPRECIATE YOUR OFFER
TO BUY MY FIRM,

BUT I'M AFRAID MY ANSWER IS THE
SAME AS IT WAS THREE MONTHS AGO.

WELL, UNFORTUNATELY, THAT
DECISION ISN'T ENTIRELY YOURS,

AND I ONLY WANT
THE NEW YORK OFFICE.

THE L.A. OFFICE
IS REDUNDANT FOR ME.

I'VE BEEN ASSURED
I'LL RUN THE TABLE

GETTING ALL THE NEW YORK
PARTNERS TO VOTE FOR A MERGER.

AND IF I CAN PICK OFF JUST TWO
WEST-COAST PARTNERS,

YOU'LL BE ASKING ME
WHEN YOU CAN GO

ON YOUR NEXT MEDITATION
CIRCLE-JERK TO TUSHITA.

WHAT ABOUT THE PARALEGALS,
THE ASSISTANTS?

WHAT, ARE YOU GONNA JUST
THROW THEM OUT ON THE STREET?

[ LAUGHING ]
MY GOODNESS.

NO WONDER YOU'RE
HEMORRHAGING MONEY.

EVEN IF YOU GET THE NEW YORK
PARTNERS TO ALIGN WITH YOU,

I'M CONFIDENT THAT MY PARTNERS
WILL STAY LOYAL TO ME.

INCLUDING...YOUR SON.

WELL, NOW YOU'RE SOUNDING
AS NAIVE AS A VEGAN.

[ CHUCKLES ]

ARE YOU GONNA
WAKE UP JARED?

HE'S UP.
I HEARD THEM.

JARED DELETED "DEADLIEST CATCH"
FROM THE DVR.

NOW I HAVE TO WATCH THEM ONLINE
WITH COMMERCIALS.

IT RUINS THE WHOLE
EXPERIENCE FOR ME.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
THERE WAS PLENTY OF SPACE LEFT.

NOT FOR A SEASON PASS OF
"SAY YES TO THE DRESS," GUYS.

IT'S EMILY'S
FAVORITE SHOW.

OH, A SEASON PASS?

JARED SEEMS PRETTY BULLISH ON
HER CHANCES OF STICKING AROUND.

MAYBE THE NEXT THING
TO BE DELETED

FROM THIS HOUSE
WILL BE ONE OF US.

-GOOD MORNING.
-HI, GUYS.

-HEY. MORNING.
-DUDE, WE'RE LATE.

DO YOU NEED ME TO MOVE
MY CAR, PETER?

NO. NO, I'M DRIVING IN
WITH JARED.

KEPT ME UP ALL NIGHT.

I DID?

NICE UNDEROOS.
CAN WE GO?

YOU GOT TO GET DRESSED.
I GOT A MEETING WITH TOMMY DALE.

-OKAY. KEEP YOUR SHORTS ON.
-ISN'T HE RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR?

-YEAH.
-HE'S AN OLD HIGH-SCHOOL BUDDY OF PETER'S.

PROBABLY JUST
HITTING YOU UP FOR CASH.

OR A CABINET APPOINTMENT.
I'M A LAWYER.

HE'S LOOKING FOR
AN ATTORNEY GENERAL.

-UH, PETER?
-HMM?

I THINK YOU NEED TO LOOK
AT THIS.

IT'S FROM
THE CALIFORNIA BAR ASSOCIATION.

URGENT?

PROBABLY GOOD NEWS. URGENT
LETTERS ARE ALWAYS GOOD NEWS.

UM, IT'S A LETTER
OF DELINQUENCY.

"YOUR STATUS
IS HEREBY SUSPENDED."

I CAN'T PRACTICE LAW.

[ ROCK MUSIC PLAYS ]

♪ OOH, WHAT A MIXTURE ♪

♪ SUCH A VIVID PICTURE ♪

♪ OOH, WHAT A MIXTURE ♪

♪ IF I MUST SAY SO MYSELF ♪

IT'S JUST A CLERICAL ERROR,
PETER. BIG DEAL.

YOU KNOW, PINDAR SAYS IT'LL BE
FIXED IN A MATTER OF DAYS.

SO I CAN'T PRACTICE LAW
FOR A WEEK.

I USUALLY CARRY YOU,
ANYWAYS.

ALL RIGHT,
PLATONIC IN THREE...TWO...

-[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS ]
-...ONE. OKAY.

OKAY, WELL, HERE WE ARE,
JUST FRIENDS.

-THAT'S RIGHT.
-YOU BE CAREFUL.

I DON'T WANT THE NEW YORK OFFICE
TO FIND OUT WE'RE UNDERCOVER.

YOU TWO DID MEET WHILE
SHE WAS INVESTIGATING US.

YOU CAN SEE
HOW THAT WOULD LOOK BAD.

I JUST KEEP THE BLACK OPS
IN PRIVATE 'CAUSE IT'S HOTTER.

AWW, I AM INTO HER,
PETER!

I'M WAY UPRIVER.

I'M COLONEL KURTZ,
SHAVE-MY-HEAD,

MACHETE-A-BISON-IN-HALF
UPRIVER.

I'M HAPPY FOR YOU.
SERIOUSLY.

WHY IS TOMMY DALE
CALLING YOU?

I HAVE NO IDEA. HE JUST SAID
HE NEEDED TO TALK TO ME ALONE.

THE ONLY REASON HE'S IN THE RACE
IS 'CAUSE THE FRONT-RUNNER

HAD HIS INTERNET HISTORY
POSTED ON THE HuffPo.

-ANIME PORN. SO WHAT?
-NO KIDDING.

SURE YOU DON'T WANT ME
TO GO WITH YOU TO HELP OUT?

YOU KNOW, WHAT WITH ME
BEING LICENSED AND ALL

AND YOU NOT HAVING A...

THAT'S FUNNY.

IT IS FUNNY 'CAUSE YOU KNOW
WHAT IT MAKES YOU -- AN INTERN.

AND I NEED SOMEONE
TO SEXUALLY HARASS

AND GET ME COFFEE
ON THE DOUBLE.

ALL RIGHT,
IF I LET YOU COME,

WILL YOU SHUT UP
WITH THE DISBARMENT JOKES?

[ SIGHS ]
NOT A CHANCE.

FINE.

-FINE!
-FINE.

GET THE DOOR FOR ME.

-I HATE YOU.
-YOU ARE FUNNY.

SEE THAT?
I'M HARASSING YOU ALREADY.

-GET THE DOOR.
-H.R.!

AND LIKE YOU,
I WANT MY FAMILY TO GROW UP

IN A BEAUTIFUL, PROSPEROUS,
AND SAFE CALIFORNIA.

SO VOTE FOR ME, TOMMY DALE,
FOR GOVERNOR OF CALIFORNIA.

Man: AND, CUT.

-THANK YOU.
-EXCELLENT. THAT'S IT.

-Dale: GOT IT?
-YEAH. NAILED IT, KID.

LANCASTER 3:00. DON'T FORGET
THE DELTA SMELT BRIEF.

-I WON'T.
-HONEY.

LOVE YOU.
SEE YOU AT HOME.

LOVE YOU. THANKS.

HI, THERE. TOMMY DALE.
NICE TO MEET YOU.

OKAY, THANK YOU, GUYS. YOU'LL
HAVE TO EXCUSE ME. THANK YOU.

LOOK WHO'S
RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR.

MY TOO-SLOW,
HANDS-OF-STONE WIDE RECEIVER.

WELL,
LOOK WHO BECAME A LAWYER.

MY QUARTERBACK WHO COULDN'T
READ A DEFENSE, LET ALONE LATIN.

MR. SPEAKER.
HOW GOES IT?

NO OFFENSE -- I, UH, NEED TO
TALK TO MY LAWYER ALONE.

YOU -- [ LAUGHS ]
YOU DIDN'T...

YEAH, THERE'S A LITTLE ISSUE
WITH THAT.

I C--
I CAN'T PRACTICE LAW.

[ LAUGHING ]
HE CAN'T PRACTICE LAW.

WELL, YOU COULD HAVE LED
WITH THAT, PETE.

YEAH. IT'S TEMPORARY.
I -- IT'S A PAYMENT DUES --

-YEAH.
-IT'S A LONG STORY.

BUT IF YOU NEED A DRIVER,
THIS IS THE GUY.

YEAH.
YOU REMEMBER JARED.

YOU PROBABLY REMEMBER
HIS SISTER BETTER.

-YEAH. THIS GUY'S GREAT, ISN'T HE?
-[ LAUGHS ]

YOU CAN TRUST HIM,
I SWEAR.

I'M LIKE A LADYBUG
BUT TOUGH.

-LADYBUG? REALLY?
-YEAH.

THE BEETLE
IS A SYMBOL OF TRUST,

AND YOU CAN USE THAT ON YOUR
STICKERS OR WHATEVER YOU WANT.

LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

LEAD THE WAY.

Peter: YOU WANT TO DROP OUT
OF THE RACE?

YOU WERE SURGING
IN THE POLLS.

-YEAH.
-Jared: SERIOUS?

YOU KNOW, I COME THIS CLOSE
TO KNOWING SOMEONE

WHO CAN POINT ME
TO THE RIGHT LIQUOR STORE

TO BUY A LOTTERY TICKET,
AND HE BAILS.

HEY, BELIEVE ME,
THIS IS HARDER FOR ME.

MY WHOLE LIFE
I WANTED TO DO THIS.

I GOTCHA.

I'LL STILL BE YOUR FRIEND
EVEN THOUGH

YOU'RE A LOWLY ASSEMBLYMAN
FROM CHATSWORTH.

[ LAUGHS ]
THAT'S BIG OF YOU.

-I WON'T.
-WHY?

IT'S PERSONAL.

WE'RE GONNA GO AHEAD
AND ASK IF IT'S YOUR HEALTH

SO WE CAN GET TO
THE REAL QUESTION, TOMMY.

-IT'S NOT MY HEALTH.
-WHO IS SHE?

IT DOESN'T MATTER, PETER.
I'M NOT RUNNING.

NO, I'M NOT DOING THIS
TO MY FAMILY.

BESIDES, THE PARTY
ONLY PUT ME OUT THERE

AS ROADKILL AGAINST HENDRICKS,
AND THEN HE DROPPED OUT.

WHAT IS ANIME PORN,
ANYWAY?

I DON'T KNOW WHY
YOU'RE LOOKING AT US.

-I DON'T KNOW, MAN.
-I DON'T KNOW.

WHY DON'T YOU JUST RESIGN?
WHY DO YOU NEED A LAWYER?

MY CAMPAIGN MANAGER, ELI PALMER,
WON'T LET ME JUST DROP OUT.

HE SAID HE'D SUE ME
FOR BREACH.

YOU SIGN A CONTRACT?

NO, BUT...

THERE MIGHT HAVE BEEN
A HANDSHAKE.

WELL, LET US TALK TO ELI FIRST.
WE'LL GO FROM THERE.

APPRECIATE IT.

-[ BEEPING ]
-MORNING, EVERYONE.

-Man and woman: MORNING.
-PAUSE IT. PAUSE IT.

LAST SATURDAY NIGHT,
I WENT OUT ON THE TOWN

WITH MY GOOD FRIEND
SALMAN RUSHDIE.

SALMAN AND I WENT TO THE
CHERRY POP IN WEST HOLLYWOOD,

WHERE I DANCED ON
A 7-FOOT-HIGH LUCITE CUBE.

A SPECIAL MOMENT
FOR ANYONE.

YES.
IT WAS, ROGER.

SALMAN PROFFERED
THAT LIFE IS LIKE A WAR ZONE.

A WAR ZONE RIFE WITH SHAME,
GOSSIP, AND SECRETS.

BUT I MUST SAY, I --
I DISAGREED WITH MY FRIEND.

I MEAN, I SUPPOSE
IT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN

BEING A CYNICAL PESSIMIST
WITH A FATWA AGAINST YOU

AND BEING ME -- A DASHING EX-PAT
WITH HIS OWN LAW FIRM.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT.
SHALL WE BEGIN?

[ BUBBLEGUM POPS ]

WHAT THE HELL'S
GOING ON HERE?

DID, UH,
ROGER DO SOMETHING?

POSSIBLY.

IS THAT STARING THING
A NEW MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUE?

YOUR FATHER AND THE OTHER
PARTNERS AT HIS FIRM

ARE TRYING
TO BUY US OUT.

WHAT?

HE CAN'T BUY THE FIRM
OUT FROM UNDER YOU.

YOUR NAME'S ON THE WALL.

UNFORTUNATELY, JARED,
THIS IS A DEMOCRACY.

IF HE GETS
16 OF THE 31 PARTNERS

TO VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE TAKEOVER
AT FRIDAY'S PARTNERS' MEETING,

THEN ALL
THE EQUITY PARTNERS

WILL BE WORKING
FOR LEONARD FRANKLIN.

WHAT ABOUT ALL THE PEOPLE HERE?
THEY GONNA GO TO NEW YORK?

UNFORTUNATELY, THEY'RE GONNA
HAVE TO FIND WORK ELSEWHERE.

SADLY, THE FIRM
WILL PROBABLY BE DISSOLVED.

THAT CAN'T HAPPEN.

WHAT WE HAVE TO DO
IS ISOLATE

TWO OR THREE PARTNERS
STILL IN PLAY,

AND WE CAN GET THEM TO VOTE
AGAINST THE TAKEOVER.

LET US HANDLE THAT.

HAVE YOU GOT MY BACK?

-YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT.
-YOU KNOW IT.

-I APPRECIATE THAT, GENTLEMEN.
-[ CELL PHONE VIBRATES ]

[ CLEARS THROAT ]
OH.

I'D BETTER TAKE THIS.
I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

Infeld:
YES? YES, THIS IS HE.

STANTON NEVER SHOULD HAVE
HIRED YOU TWO.

YOU'RE BAIT FOR A SCUMBAG
LIKE LEONARD FRANKLIN.

HEY. THAT IS MY CRAPPY DAD
YOU'RE TRASHING.

AND IT'S NOT LIKE STANTON
HIRING HIS INBRED NEPHEW

WAS BRILLIANT LEADERSHIP.

IS IT TRUE
YOU LOST YOUR BAR CARD?

IS IT TRUE THAT YOUR MOM'S
ON MY SPEED DIAL?

ALL RIGHT.
LEAVE MY INTERN ALONE.

WHICH ARE THE OTHER PARTNERS
THAT ARE STILL IN PLAY?

ROGER AND DANIELS' SON,
BROCK.

HE'S AN ENTITLED
LITTLE NARCISSIST.

TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE,
THOUGH, RIGHT, KARPY?

OH, THAT WAS REALLY HELPFUL,
BART SIMPSON.

LET'S SEE
IF WE CAN SMOKE OUT

ROGER AND BROCK
AND CHANGE THEIR MINDS.

HOW YOU GONNA DO THAT?

IT'S -- IT'S NEED-TO-KNOW.
TOP SECRET.

IT'S ABOVE
YOUR PAY GRADE.

-GREAT. BRIMMING WITH CONFIDENCE.
-YEAH.

-THAT'S GREAT.
-IT'S ALL OVER THE PLACE.

-WHATEVER.
-WISH WE COULD TELL YOU, THOUGH.

-YEAH.
-WE REALLY DO.

YOU GOT ANY IDEAS?

NOTHING. YOU?

NO.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS,
TELEPHONE RINGS ]

I COULD HAVE TAKEN ANY NUMBER
OF JOBS WITH OTHER CANDIDATES,

BUT I CHOSE TOMMY, THE UNDERDOG,
BECAUSE I BELIEVED IN HIM.

I PUT A LOT OF WORK
INTO GETTING HIM RACE-READY,

FROM FASHION MAKEOVERS
TO INTENSIVE POLICY PREP.

NOW, WOULD YOU WALK AWAY
FROM A BUSINESS

AFTER YOU INVESTED IN IT
AND TURNED IT AROUND?

NO. I -- I -- I COMPLETELY GET
WHERE YOU'RE COMING FROM,

BUT YOU CAN'T
FORCE TOMMY TO RUN.

HE COULD
TANK A COUPLE OF SPEECHES

AND HIS POLL NUMBERS
WOULD SINK.

AND THAT WOULD BE
BREACH OF CONTRACT

AND I'D STILL SUE HIS ASS
FOR 500 GRAND.

HE'S NOT A RICH KID.
HE DOESN'T HAVE 500 GRAND.

AN ASSEMBLYMAN
MAKES $95,000 A YEAR.

I DON'T WANT THE MONEY.
I WANT HIM TO RUN.

HE COULD BE GOVERNOR
AND BEYOND.

LISTEN, WE VETTED TOMMY
TO THE BONE MARROW.

IF THIS IS SOME KIND
OF BIMBO ERUPTION,

IT HAPPENED
ON THE CAMPAIGN.

I'M TELLING YA,
HE CAN SURVIVE THIS.

TOMMY DOESN'T WANT THAT.

SO THEN
IT WAS ANOTHER WOMAN.

JUST GIVE HIM HIS LIFE BACK.
THAT'S ALL --

THAT'S ALL HE WANTS.

YEP. AND I WANT
MY LIFE BACK, TOO.

JUST THE WAY IT IS.

SO TELL TOMMY
WE CAN HASH IT OUT IN COURT,

BUT HE BETTER BE IN STOCKTON
TOMORROW MORNING

FOR THAT
PANCAKE BREAKFAST,

OR THE PRESS
ARE GONNA ASK QUESTIONS.

THANKS, GUYS.

I KNEW ELI
WOULDN'T BUDGE.

SO LET'S
TAKE HIM TO COURT.

NO. NO, NO, NO,
NO, NO, NO.

WHERE THERE'S COURT,
THERE'S BOUND TO BE MEDIA.

NOT IF WE FILE A MOTION TO HAVE
THE PROCEEDINGS SEALED UP.

ALL PARTIES ENTER
THROUGH A SECURE ENTRANCE.

OKAY.

LET'S DO IT.

OKAY.

WHICH MEANS THAT WE'RE GONNA
NEED TO KNOW EVERYTHING

ABOUT WHY YOU'RE
DROPPING OUT

SO THAT WE CAN ANTICIPATE
WHAT THEY'RE GONNA THROW AT US.

WE NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT THE OTHER WOMAN.

WHO IS SHE, TOMMY?

IT'S OKAY. TELL THEM.

THE OTHER WOMAN...

IS MY CAMPAIGN
MANAGER'S WIFE.

ELI'S WIFE?

THAT'S RIGHT.

[ KEYBOARD CLACKING,
TELEPHONE RINGS ]

LEONARD FRANKLIN'S
OFFICE.

Man: [ GRUFF VOICE ]
HEY, BUNNY.

HELLO, MR. FRANKLIN.

-ANY CALLS?
-YES.

THE BANK, DR. MARKLE,

BOB SAYS YOU NEED A FOURTH
FOR FRIDAY,

AND YOUR SON CALLED --
SIX TIMES.

THAT ANNOYING
LITTLE PRICK.

-THE ONE TIME I DON'T USE A CONDOM.
-[ SCOFFS ]

GOOD THING I DID WITH YOU,
THOUGH.

HUH, BUNS?

-LEONARD.
-[ LAUGHS ]

TELL YOU WHAT, GET ME
ROGER DEMPSEY ON THE PHONE.

AND, UH, OH, SEND JARED
A JET SKI FOR HIS BIRTHDAY.

TWO OF THEM.

A KAWASAKI, ULTRA 300LX.

[ SIGHS ] SURE.
ONE MOMENT, PLEASE.

[ CELL PHONE BUZZES ]

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

-HELLO.
-LEONARD FRANKLIN FOR ROGER DEMPSEY.

UH, YES.
UH, THIS IS ME.

ONE MOMENT, PLEASE.

ARE WE GONNA MAKE SOME
MONEY TOGETHER OR WHAT?

YOU KNOW,
UH, LEONARD, I --

I TOLD YOU I WOULD NEED
THE WEEKEND.

IT'S THE WEEKEND SOMEWHERE,
AND I NEED AN ANSWER.

WELL, I AM LEANING
YOUR WAY.

UH, BUT I GOT TO GO.

[ NORMAL VOICE ]
NO PROBLEM.

LET ME WALK YOUR TRAITOR ASS
TO THE DOOR.

[ SIGHS ]

STANTON SOBERED YOU UP,
PAID OFF YOUR STUDENT LOANS.

IS THIS HOW
YOU PAY HIM BACK?

HEY, I GAVE HIM
20 GOOD YEARS.

AND I MADE
A LOT OF RAIN.

OH, SURE.

WELL, THEN, YOU'VE EARNED
THE RIGHT TO SCREW US ALL OVER.

"US"?
THERE IS NO "US" HERE.

IF YOU DIDN'T
SPEND SO MUCH TIME

TREATING YOUR PARTNERS
AS THE ENEMY

AND MAYBE ONCE
INVITED US OVER

FOR ONE OF YOUR
LEGENDARY PARTIES...

MAYBE I WOULD FEEL
A SENSE OF LOYALTY TO YOU.

I DON'T KNOW
HOW WE MISSED IT.

YEAH, 'CAUSE YOU'D
FIT RIGHT IN.

AT LEAST I DIDN'T
KEEP A FILE ON YOU.

-FILE?
-FILE?

WHAT DO YOU THINK
TRIGGERED

THE H.R. INVESTIGATION
ON YOU GUYS?

-KARP?
-OH.

NO, NO, NO, NO. DUDE, LATER.
GOT TO GET TO COURT.

[ KEYS JINGLE, LOCK CLICKS ]

Jared: THE CONTRACT, IF THERE
EVER WAS ONE, YOUR HONOR,

WAS FOR ELI'S SERVICES

IN THE RACE FOR STATE
ASSEMBLYMAN, NOT GOVERNOR,

WHICH MAKES THIS UNENFORCEABLE
AND VOIDABLE BY EITHER PARTY.

WHEN TOMMY DALE
RAN FOR GOVERNOR,

THAT WAS TOMMY'S WAY
OF PICKING UP ELI'S OPTION.

HE THEREFORE OWES HIM FOR
THE DURATION OF THE CAMPAIGN.

QUANTUM MERUIT,
YOUR HONOR.

ELI IS OWED
FOR WORK ALREADY COMPLETED,

NOT FOR FUTURE WORK
ON AN UNENFORCEABLE CONTRACT,

WHICH, BY THE WAY,
THE PETITIONER MAINTAINS

WAS A HANDSHAKE
AGREEMENT.

WHICH IS AN ORAL CONTRACT
AND LEGALLY BINDING.

YOUR HONOR, WE'D LIKE TO CALL
PETER BASH TO THE STAND.

UH, YOUR HONOR, OPPOSING COUNSEL
CAN'T BE CALLED AS A WITNESS.

THAT'S CORRECT,
AND I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE

-MR. CARLTON WOULDN'T KNOW THAT.
-I DO, TOO.

I DO, YOUR HONOR, BUT, UH,
MR. BASH ISN'T A LAWYER.

ARE YOU, MR. BASH?

HOW THE HELL
DID THEY FIND OUT?

WHAT?

I HAVE ONE OF THE BEST
OP RESEARCH TEAMS.

KIND OF A CURSE
RIGHT NOW.

YOUR HONOR, MR. CARLTON
IS REFERRING TO A CLERICAL ERROR

THAT HAS TEMPORARILY
COMPROMISED

MY ABILITY TO PRACTICE LAW
IN THIS STATE.

HE'S BEEN DISBARRED,
YOUR HONOR.

OH, THAT IS NOT TRUE,
YOUR HONOR.

HE IS ON ADMINISTRATIVE
SUSPENSION.

THAT PRE-DATES WHEN MR. BASH
FIRST STARTED CONSULTING

WITH TOMMY DALE
ON THIS MATTER.

THERE'S NO ATTORNEY-CLIENT
PRIVILEGE

ON ANYTHING
THEY'VE DISCUSSED.

I AGREE. MR. BASH
MAY BE CALLED AS A WITNESS.

THEY'RE GONNA ASK
ABOUT THE MARRIAGE.

YES, THEY ARE,
AND AS YOUR ATTORNEY,

I RECOMMEND
YOU ANSWER THEIR QUESTIONS

TO THE BEST
OF YOUR RECOLLECTION.

I'M NOT GONNA PAY YOU
FOR THAT ADVICE.

YOU'RE GONNA PAY ME
FOR THIS.

YOU'RE TERRIBLE.

IS IT TRUE THAT YOU'VE KNOWN
TOMMY DALE SINCE HIGH SCHOOL?

YOU PLAYED FOOTBALL TOGETHER,
IS THAT RIGHT?

YES.

IN FACT, THAT RELATIONSHIP
IS WHY TOMMY HIRED YOU.

BECAUSE HE CAN TRUST YOU
WITH A SECRET.

THAT,
AND I'M A LAWYER.

AH, CORRECTION.
WERE A LAWYER.

[ CHUCKLES ] THIS GUY.

MR. BASH, ARE YOU AWARE

OF WHY TOMMY DALE WANTS
TO DROP OUT OF THIS RACE?

PLEASE ANSWER
THE QUESTION.

AND IF I DON'T?

YOU KNOW EXACTLY
WHAT I'LL DO TO YOU, MR. BASH.

I'VE NEVER BEEN HELD IN CONTEMPT
AS A WITNESS BEFORE.

-HAVE AT IT.
-I PREFER YOU DON'T, YOUR HONOR.

I'D RATHER HE ANSWERS
THE QUESTION FIRST.

I'LL ASK AGAIN.

MR. BASH, ARE YOU AWARE

OF WHY TOMMY DALE WANTS
TO DROP OUT OF THIS RACE?

YES.
FOR PERSONAL REASONS.

WELL,
WHAT PERSONAL REASONS?

OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR.

EVEN IF THE CONTRACT
IS LEGITIMATE, THE DETAILS

OF MR. DALE'S PERSONAL LIFE
SHOULD BE KEPT PRIVATE.

I'M SORRY, YOUR HONOR.
HE CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS.

HE FILES SUIT UNDER SEAL

BUT THEN REFUSES TO DISCUSS THE
DETAILS RELEVANT TO THE CASE?

MR. DALE'S STATED REASONS
FOR BREAKING THE CONTRACT

HAVE TO DO WITH
PERSONAL ISSUES.

I AGREE.

THERE WAS AN INFIDELITY
IN THE MARRIAGE.

OH.

AND WHO CHEATED
IN THE MARRIAGE?

TOMMY'S WIFE.

SAY THAT AGAIN?

TOMMY'S WIFE, JANICE,
HAD AN AFFAIR...

WITH ANOTHER WOMAN.

AND WHO WOULD THAT BE?

ELI PALMER'S WIFE.

[ SIGHS ]

HEY, YOU ASKED, DUDE.

IT'S A VICTORY.
WE'LL TAKE IT.

FUNNY.
IT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE ONE.

LET'S REVIEW.

THE JUDGE RULED
THE CONTRACT VOID,

AND HE PUT A GAG ON EVERYONE
INVOLVED WITH THE CASE.

WHICH MEANS IF ELI
TALKS ABOUT ANYTHING

THAT HAPPENED
IN THAT COURT TODAY,

HE COULD BE CHARGED WITH
A FELONY AND DO JAIL TIME.

IT'S A VICTORY,
BUT IT CAME AT A PRICE.

YEAH. SO MUCH FOR KEEPING
YOUR FAMILY SECRET.

WE'RE NOT JUDGING HERE.

Tommy:
GUESS I SHOULD GO GET MY

"I'D RATHER SPEND TIME
WITH MY FAMILY" SPEECH READY.

-[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS ]
-THANK YOU, GUYS.

-YOU BET.
-YEAH.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

-HEY!
-KARP!

YOU KEPT A FILE
ON US?

SO?

SO, BESIDES STABBING US IN THE BACK AND
BEING A TOTAL DOUCHE,

YOU ALSO WERE GONNA PUT
THIS WHOLE FIRM IN JEOPARDY?

TO BE CLEAR, I WAS ONLY
STABBING YOU IN THE BACK

BECAUSE I RAN OUT OF ROOM
IN THE FRONT,

AND ACTUALLY, IT'S YOUR BEHAVIOR
THAT PUTS THIS FIRM IN JEOPARDY,

NOT SOMEONE TAKING NOTES.

ACTUALLY, IT WAS MY IDEA
TO KEEP THE FILE.

-BUT I THREW IT OUT A MONTH AGO.
-WAIT, WHY?

I WAS IMPRESSED WITH THE WAY
THEY DEFENDED THE SAILORS,

AND...
I HAD A CHANGE OF HEART.

SHE'S TELLING THE TRUTH.

LOOK, UM,
STEP IN HERE A MINUTE.

UNFORTUNATELY, DIGITAL FILES
THAT ARE DRAGGED INTO THE TRASH

GO THROUGH
A SECURITY FILTER.

THE SERVER FLAGS KEYWORDS

LIKE "LEVERAGED JUDGE"
OR "TELEDILDONICS."

TELEDILDONICS?

REMOTE-CONTROLLED SEX TOY.
IT'S --

[ INHALES SHARPLY ]
VALENTINE'S DAY GIFT.

WE DESERVE TO GO DOWN.

I AM SO SORRY.
YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO BE MAD.

I DITCHED THOSE FILES

SO SOMETHING LIKE THIS
WOULDN'T HAPPEN.

EXCEPT IT DID.

ALL RIGHT, SO, LET'S --
LET'S JUST PUT IT ASIDE FOR NOW.

WHERE ARE WE
ON THE VOTE?

ROGER TALKED TO MY DAD.
WE DON'T FEEL HE'S A LOCK.

SO IT MIGHT ALL COME DOWN
TO BROCK DANIELS.

DANIELS' SON WOULD REALLY DO
THIS TO HIS DAD'S OLD PARTNER?

I'M AFRAID SO.

AND WE MAY HAVE LOST
DAMIEN.

I SENSED BETRAYAL IN HIS EYES
AT THE URINAL THIS MORNING.

DID YOU DO THE STARING THING
WHILE HE WAS TRYING TO --

-THAT WOULD IMPACT FLOW.
-YEAH.

I'M GONNA GO TALK
TO DAMIEN.

LOOK, UM, PEOPLE ARE BEGINNING
TO BE A LITTLE SUSPICIOUS,

SO JUST GO ABOUT
YOUR BUSINESS

LIKE IT'S JUST AN ORDINARY
DAY AT THE OFFICE.

-[ SIGHS ]
-OKAY.

WE SHOULD PROBABLY
DO SOMETHING.

-YEAH.
-WHAT WE USUALLY DO.

YEAH.
SOME LAWYER STUFF.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

ELI STILL
WANTS ME TO RUN.

HE SAYS IF THE AFFAIR
GOES PUBLIC,

IT COULD HELP ME WITH THE WOMEN
AND THE SYMPATHY VOTE.

WAIT A MINUTE --
HE DOESN'T CARE

THAT YOUR WIFE
AND HIS WIFE...

ELI IS A MASTER
OF COMPARTMENTALIZING.

HE ALSO GAVE ME THIS AS A REASON
I COULD STILL WIN.

-WHAT IS IT?
-AN OCTOBER SURPRISE.

A SCANDAL -- REAL OR IMPLIED.

THAT WOULD HURT YOUR OPPONENT
MORE THAN YOUR WIFE AND ELI'S --

HEY.

YEAH, WE DON'T
NEED TO SEE IT.

-UNLESS IT'S GRAPHIC PICTURES.
-IT DOESN'T MATTER.

-I TOLD HIM I STILL WASN'T GONNA RUN.
-GOOD.

WHAT DID ELI SAY
ABOUT YOU NOT RUNNING?

HE SAID, "WELL THEN, I HOPE
NEWS OF OUR WIVES' DALLIANCE

DOESN'T GET LEAKED TO THE MEDIA"
IF I DROP OUT.

-WOW.
-THAT'S PRETTY CLOSE TO EXTORTION.

ELI CALLS IT
COUNTRY HARDBALL.

SO, SHOULD WE TAKE IT
TO THE D.A.'s OFFICE?

MAYBE. BUT A JUDGE IS GONNA NEED
MORE TO WARRANT A WIRE TAP.

I'D RATHER NOT RUN
THAN LET ELI GET HIS WAY.

NO. YOU HAVE TO RUN.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT LAUREN AND ME.

-BUT LAUREN IS NOT --
-I TOLD HER.

YOU WHAT?

I'M SORRY, I WANTED HER TO HEAR
THE TRUTH FROM ME.

SHE WAS UPSET,
BUT SHE WASN'T NEARLY AS UPSET

AS WHEN SHE FOUND OUT
THAT YOU WERE DROPPING OUT.

HONEY, THE MEDIA
WILL ASK HER QUESTIONS.

THEY'RE GONNA TAKE PICTURES
OF HER AT HER SCHOOL.

-THEY'RE GONNA --
-SHE DOESN'T CARE.

WE CAN HANDLE THIS.

WHY SHOULD THE VOTERS
GET PUNISHED FOR WHAT I DID?

HOW OFTEN
DO THEY GET THE CHANCE

TO ELECT SOMEONE
LIKE TOMMY DALE?

OKAY.

OKAY.

OKAY.

BUT I DON'T WANT TO RUN
WITH ELI AS MY CAMPAIGN MANAGER,

SO HOW DO WE GET RID OF HIM
WITHOUT EXPOSING OUR SECRET?

NOTHING SEEMS TO SCARE
THIS GUY OFF.

YOU SAID YOUR
OPPOSITION RESEARCH TEAM

IS THE BEST
IN THE BUSINESS.

-THEY STILL ANSWER TO YOU?
-THEY SURE DO.

ALL RIGHT. WELL, GIVE US
SOMETHING TO WORK WITH ON ELI.

WE'LL DO THE REST.

CAN LAWYERS DO THAT?

-NO.
-BUT THEN, I'M NOT A LAWYER.

-[ CHUCKLES ]
-HUH? YOU LIKED THAT. HE LOVES IT.

-I STILL LOVE IT WHEN HE SAYS THAT.
-HE LOVES IT.

HEY.

HI.

HEY, DID YOUR DAD
CALL BACK?

NO. NO.

UM, I NEED YOUR HELP.

WELL, I CAN'T TELL YOU
ABOUT THE FILE.

NO. FORGET THE FILE.
UM...

[ SIGHS ]

I NEED TO KNOW WHICH WAY
BROCK DANIELS IS GONNA VOTE

AT THE FRIDAY
PARTNERS' MEETING.

ALL RIGHT. LOOK, JARED.
[ SIGHS ]

IF WE ARE GONNA CONTINUE
THIS RELATIONSHIP,

WE'VE GOT TO HAVE A CONVERSATION
ABOUT CHURCH AND STATE.

EMILY, A LOT OF PEOPLE'S JOBS
ARE AT STAKE.

NOT MINE AND PETER'S --
OTHER -- OTHER PEOPLE HERE.

I CONVINCED MY BOSSES

I COULD DO THE
COMPENSATION-MANAGEMENT REVIEW

AS EFFICIENTLY FROM L.A.
AS I COULD FROM NEW YORK

SO WE COULD SPEND
MORE TIME TOGETHER.

AND I'M GLAD YOU DID,
BUT --

BUT I WORK IN NEW YORK.

IF THEY FIND OUT
THAT I'M BEING MORE LOYAL TO YOU

THAN I AM TO THEM,
I COULD GET FIRED.

I'M NOT ASKING YOU
TO LOBBY BROCK.

WHAT ARE YOU ASKING?

I'M ASKING YOU FOR A HEADS UP
ON WHICH WAY HE FALLS.

WE'LL HANDLE THE REST.

[ SIGHS ]
OKAY.

I'M SORRY.

HEY, I'M SORRY I ASKED.

BROCK'S ON VACATION.

BUT I KNOW WHERE.

YOU.

Peter: COME ON.
WHAT IS TAKING SO LONG?

-PATIENCE.
-[ COMPUTER CHIMES ]

Emily:
THAT'S HIM. THAT'S HIM.

-WE ARE A GO!
-SERIOUSLY?

THEY SAY THAT FOR REAL
AT NASA.

-GOOD LUCK.
-[ BEEPS ]

-OH, MY GOD!
-HEY, EM!

HEY, NO WORRIES.
I JUST DELIVERED A HORSE.

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT THAT MEANS.

I'M OUTSIDE OF TUCSON --
FOR THE LAST 21 HOURS,

I'VE BEEN HELPING THIS MARE
DELIVER HER COLT.

DO YOU EVEN KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE DOING?

I READ A BOOK ABOUT IT.
I -- I GOT MY ARM.

I JAMMED IT
ALL THE WAY IN THERE,

ALL THE WAY UP TO MY SHOULDER,
WAY UP INSIDE HERE, RIGHT?

I STILL COULD NOT REACH
THE LITTLE GUY'S LEGS.

OH, GOD.
[ RETCHES ]

WHAT?

[ COUGHS ]
OH, I AM SO SORRY.

NOTHING. WOW.

YOU'RE REALLY
LIVING YOUR ADVENTURE.

YEAH, I KNOW. I KNOW -- I
DIDN'T KNOW IF I WAS GONNA HAVE

THE STRENGTH TO HOLD HER DOWN,
BUT IT'S -- ADRENALINE --

IT'S LIKE IT'S A HORMONE,
YOU KNOW?

IT'S ALSO --
IT'S -- IT'S LIKE

A SHOT OF B12 STRENGTH
TO THE CORE MUSCLES.

OKAY, HE'S HOT.

HE'S DR. DOLITTLE.

Emily: WELL, I DON'T WANT TO
KEEP YOU, BUT BY THE WAY,

DO YOU KNOW
WHAT'S GOING ON WITH

THE PROPOSED MERGER WITH LEONARD FRANKLIN?

IT'S ALL THE TALK AROUND HERE.
ARE YOU VOTING?

OH, NO, NO.
I'M GONNA, UH, ABSTAIN.

I'VE GOT THIS LIFE/WORK
CONFLICT THING ON FRIDAY.

I'M GOING TROUT FISHING
OUT IN YOSEMITE.

DO YOU WANT TO MEET ME
IN YOSEMITE?

-HEY, DUDE. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
-WHAT?

WHAT?
I DON'T LIKE LONG GOODBYES.

SHE'S BUSY. IT'S FINE.
HE'S NOT VOTING.

ALL RIGHT,
SO YOUR DAD'S BLUFFING.

-HE DOESN'T HAVE DANIELS.
-YET.

GOT TO HOPE HE DOESN'T
MAKE CONTACT WITH HIM.

ALL WE KNOW NOW IS THAT LEAVES
KARP AND ROGER IN PLAY.

-[ CELL PHONE VIBRATES ]
-PINDY, ARE YOU OKAY?

I'M SORRY.
THAT SNUCK UP ON ME.

RIGHT.
GOOD JOB, GUYS.

-THANK YOU.
-MM-HMM.

DUDE, WE GOT TO SPLIT.
TOMMY HAS SOMETHING FOR US.

ALL RIGHT.
I'LL SEE YOU IN A BIT.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

[ SIGHS ]

[ SIGHS ]

WHAT ARE YOU GUYS
DOING HERE?

UNWINDING.
JUST LIKE YOU.

CAN I GET A PATRóN,
NEAT,

AND, UH, ONE FOR MY BUDDY
OVER THERE.

-YOU GOT IN THERE.
-THANKS.

FIRST OF ALL, YOU AND TOMMY
HAVE THE BEST WIVES EVER.

I TOLD MAGGIE WE WOULD TALK
ABOUT OUR MARITAL ISSUES

AFTER THE ELECTION.

AND YOU CAN'T APPROACH ME
WITHOUT MY COUNSEL.

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?
HAVE ME DISBARRED?

[ CHUCKLES ]

I HAVE GOOD NEWS...
AND GOOD NEWS.

TOMMY WANTS TO RUN.

SMART.

AS FAR AS WHAT HAPPENED, IT WAS
JUST DUSTUP ON THE TRAIL.

WE'LL BE FINE.

YEP, AND HE DOESN'T WANT YOU
RUNNING HIS CAMPAIGN.

[ GLASSES CLINK ]

YEAH, WELL,
HE DOESN'T HAVE A CHOICE.

MM. NEITHER DO YOU.
HERE.

FOR YOUR
READING PLEASURE.

TOMMY'S WRITTEN A SPEECH

THAT HE'S GONNA POST
TO THE CAMPAIGN WEBSITE,

PROMOTING HIS SOLUTION

FOR OVERCROWDED PRISONS
IN CALIFORNIA --

EARLY RELEASE
OF ANY FELON

WHO HAS SERVED
AT LEAST TWO YEARS IN JAIL.

INSPIRED IDEA -- IF HE DOESN'T
MIND LOSING

-BY 20 POINTS.
-YEAH.

I MEAN, HE DOES THANK YOU
FOR GIVING HIM THAT IDEA.

I NEVER GAVE HIM
THE IDEA.

UH, AN E-MAIL FROM YOU TO TOMMY,
DATED FEBRUARY 16, 2012.

"SOLUTION TO OVERCROWDING --
RELEASE ALL FELONS

WHO HAVE SERVED
TWO YEARS OF THEIR SENTENCE."

THAT WAS A JOKE.

THE CURSE OF E-MAILS --
YOU LOSE THE IRONY.

RESIGN OR TOMMY
PUSHES THE BUTTON

ON HIS NEW
PRISON-POLICY INITIATIVE.

AND NEITHER ONE OF YOU WILL EVER
PRACTICE POLITICS AGAIN.

THIS IS EXTORTION.

NOPE.

COUNTRY HARDBALL.

I'LL GET THE NEXT ONE.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATION ]

[ CHUCKLES ]

I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID IT.
YOU GOT ELI TO STEP ASIDE.

I SHOULD HAVE YOU GUYS
RUN MY CAMPAIGN.

OH, MAN. NO WAY.

NO, WE PREFER THE QUIET
INTEGRITY OF PRACTICING LAW.

[ CHUCKLES ]
I GET IT.

BUT JUST FOR THE SAKE
OF ARGUMENT,

OVER A COUPLE OF BEERS, HOW
WOULD YOU GUYS HANDLE MY RACE?

WOULD YOU GO ALL
FRANKLIN AND BASH ON 'EM?

[ LAUGHS ]

-OKAY, WE'LL, UH -- WE'LL GO ALONG.
-SURE.

WE'D START WITH THE OCTOBER
SURPRISE WE'D DROP ON DUNLAP.

EXACTLY THE KIND OF GAME
I DON'T WANT TO PLAY, JARED.

BUT FOR KICKS,
WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

HEY, UH, TOMMY?

WE -- WE GOT TO GET BACK TO YOU
ON THAT IDEA.

YEAH. YEAH.

I'M AFRAID IT'S OVER.

-WELL, HOW?
-WE GOT ROGER AND -- AND BROCK.

WE GOT ROGER?

YEAH.
HE JUST NEEDED A LITTLE LOVE.

HE RSVP'd TO MARGARITA MONDAY,
WHICH MEANS HE'S STAYING.

YEAH, AND BROCK DANIELS
ISN'T EVEN GONNA VOTE.

-HE'S UP TO HIS ARMS IN...
-HORSE VAGINA.

WELL, I'VE BEEN
FACEBOOK-STALKING BROCK,

AND HE JUST UPDATED
HIS PAGE

SAYING THAT HE'S FLYING
TO L.A. TONIGHT

AND LOOKING FORWARD
TO FLY-FISHING

ON THE PROVO RIVER
THIS WEEKEND.

AND WHY IS THAT
SIGNIFICANT?

BECAUSE MY FOLKS HAVE A PLACE
IN PARK CITY.

MY DAD GOT TO BROCK.

I ALSO FOUND OUT
THAT SOME OF THE DEFECTORS

ARE FLYING OUT OF BURBANK TO
UTAH FOR THE VOTE TOMORROW --

FLIGHT 650
TO SALT LAKE CITY.

WHAT ABOUT KARP?

BECAUSE OF YOUR SUSPENDED
BAR CARD, YOU CAN'T VOTE,

AND EVEN IF DAMIEN STAYS
THE COURSE, WE STILL FALL SHORT.

-DAMN IT, PINDY.
-YOU'RE GONNA BLAME HIM

FOR A CLERICAL ERROR?

IT MAKES ME
FEEL GOOD, OKAY?

NO ONE TO BLAME HERE.

THIS IS JUST THE WAY
THE GAME IS PLAYED.

I MEAN, IF YOU CAN'T STAND
BEING CHECKED INTO THE BOARDS,

GET OFF THE ICE.

LOOK AT YOU,
MAKING A HOCKEY ANALOGY.

WELL, YOU FORGET
I WAS BACKUP GOALIE

ON THE '72
SWISS HOCKEY TEAM.

FOR TAX REASONS, I BECAME
A SWISS CITIZEN TEMPORARILY.

RIGHT, RIGHT.
THAT -- THAT SLIPPED OUR MIND.

WE FORGOT THAT.

THERE IS ONE OTHER OPTION
TO SAVE THIS FIRM.

HANNA, I'M SORRY. I'M GONNA
NEED TO TALK TO THE BOYS.

I HAVEN'T BEEN ENTIRELY
FORTHCOMING ON WHY I HIRED YOU.

LOOK, THIS ISN'T EASY
FOR ME.

OKAY.

[ SIGHS ]
BEFORE MY OLD PARTNER,

HENRY DANIELS, DIED,

HE TRIED TO SELL THE FIRM
OUT FROM UNDER ME,

AND HE ALMOST SUCCEEDED.

AND I DECIDED
THEN AND THERE

THAT I'D NEVER
LET THAT HAPPEN AGAIN, SO...

I -- I BOUGHT SOME INSURANCE,
IF YOU WILL.

LIKE POLICY?

NO.

UM, INSURANCE THAT NO ONE
IN THEIR RIGHT MIND

WOULD EVER
WANT TO BUY THIS FIRM.

OH, LIKE A --
LIKE A POISON PILL.

YES.

IT'S KIND OF BRILLIANT.

I HIRED THE MOST NOTORIOUS
LAWYERS IN THE COUNTRY.

THAT SOUNDS
LESS BRILLIANT NOW.

WAIT,
WE'RE THE POISON PILL?

HMM.

THAT'S WHY WE WERE MADE
EQUITY PARTNERS --

TO CONTAMINATE THE WELL.

I KNOW YOU'RE UPSET.

BUT, LOOK, YOU HAVE TO ADMIT
THAT THE LAST YEAR HAS BEEN FUN.

[ CHUCKLING ] I MEAN,
YOU CLAWED YOUR WAY OUT OF DEBT,

YOUR EMPLOYEES
HAVE HEALTHCARE,

AND YOU STUCK IT
TO THE ESTABLISHMENT.

YOU LIED TO US.

OH, WELL,
A SIN OF OMISSION.

THERE'S A LOT
OF HARDWORKING PEOPLE HERE

WHO DESERVE TO KEEP
THEIR JOBS.

WELL, YOU'RE LOOKING AT
TWO PEOPLE

WHO MAY NOT
WANT TO KEEP THEIRS.

LOOK,
I PLEDGE MY RESPECT

FOR WHAT IS THE GENIUS
OF FRANKLIN AND BASH,

BUT NOW YOU HAVE TO LISTEN
TO MY IDEA.

HEY, DAD. YOU'RE GONNA
WANT TO RETURN THIS CALL.

Hanna: HEY. I THOUGHT FOR SURE YOU'D BE
ON THAT FLIGHT TO UTAH.

UH, NO. I DON'T LIKE FISHING.
IT'S TOO PASSIVE.

SO, CAN I ASSUME
YOU'RE HERE

BECAUSE YOU'RE VOTING
FOR THE HOME TEAM?

OKAY,
JUST SO WE'RE CLEAR,

I'M NOT OUT TO GET
PETER AND JARED.

I'VE -- I'VE GOT MY CORNER
OFFICE. I'M EYEING A JUDGESHIP.

I'M JUST NOT A HUGE FAN OF THEIR
CASUAL APPROACH TO THE LAW.

NOTED.

ALTHOUGH WE'RE STILL
ONE VOTE DOWN.

IT'S NOT
ONE VOTE ANYMORE.

[ SIGHS ] EMILY,
HAVE YOU SEEN PETER OR JARED?

THEY LEFT AN HOUR AGO.
SAID THEY HAD A PLANE TO CATCH.

AND YOU WERE WORRIED
ABOUT ME.

[ SIGHS ]

Woman:
SIR, CAN I HANG YOUR COAT FOR YOU?

TALK ABOUT A DREAM TEAM.

BROCK, THESE ARE
MY TOP TWO LITIGATORS,

RANDY BROOKS
AND CHRISTINE ROSEN.

THEY'RE BRINGING DOWN A.I.G.
NEXT MONTH.

WELCOME ABOARD, BROCK.

THAT'S BIG-GAME HUNTING.
VERY IMPRESSIVE.

WELL, WE'VE HEARD
GREAT THINGS ABOUT YOU.

I WENT UP AGAINST YOUR DAD
SEVERAL TIMES.

GREAT LAWYER.

EXCUSE ME.

UNCONSCIONABLE,
WHAT STANTON DID TO YOU BOYS.

AT LEAST YOU
LETTING EVERYBODY GO

IN THE L.A. OFFICE
IS GOOD BUSINESS.

WHAT STANTON DID --
THAT'S SELF-PRESERVATION.

IT SEEMS YOUR ELDERS

NEED TO START ACCORDING YOU
MORE RESPECT.

I HOPE NOT.

WE DINE ON PEOPLE
UNDERESTIMATING US.

HOW DID STANTON
TAKE THE NEWS?

SCREW HIM.

STEWARD, WHEN YOU GET A CHANCE, COULD YOU
GET US A COUPLE BEERS

-AND A KOSHER MEAL FOR MY BUDDY HERE?
-A BLANKET.

I'M NOT A FLIGHT ATTENDANT.
I'M BROCK DANIELS.

THAT'S--

-BROCK.
-BROCK.

HOW YOU DOING? WE'VE NEVER MET.

BECAUSE THE PILOT
ASKED YOU TO.

ABOUT FLYING WHILE NAPPING?

HAVE TO GET THE CO-PILOT.

OOH, HE'S GONNA

-SORRY, POP.

-HE JUST TOUCHED ME INAPPROPRIATELY.
-HE DID.

-I WITNESSED IT.
-YOU DID.

-I DIDN'T GRAZE HIS...
-YOU OKAY? I KNOW A GOOD ATTORNEY.

I'M NOT OKAY. DAD!

COME BACK THERE?

-DAD, HE TOUCHED LITTLE JARED!
-BUCKLE YOUR SEAT BELT.

DO I HEAR $55?

-WE GOT $60 FOR WHAT?
-WE'RE GONNA THROW IN

AND SOME WARM, HOT TOWELS!

DRAGS MY NAME THROUGH THE MUD

THAT THEY'VE JUST DISCOVERED

A FEW WEEKS BEFORE ELECTION DAY.

THEY'RE GONNA SAY THAT I HIRED
AN ILLEGAL NANNY

AND THAT I HAD A DOG WHOSE NAME
WAS OFFENSIVE TO CAMBODIANS.

THAT I FAILED TO DONATE
