Want to see what you're
gonnalook like in 30 years?

Honey, don't you know
no woman wants to see

what she's gonna look
like when she's older?

Come on. It's just an app.

I take your pictureand
then it makes you look old.

I really don't
want...[shutter clicks]

You closed your eyes. One more.

And then you'll let me
read my book in peace?

[laughs softly] Probably not.

[screaming]

[people panting, groaning]

WOMAN: Welcome back.

Happy you finally
decided to join us.

All right, careful. Don't
look directly at the light.

Look above the light.

Look at the tip of my nose.

Good.

Tell me your name.

Uh, Walt Mora.

What day is it today, Mr. Mora?

I have no idea.

Well, what's the last
thing you can remember?

Being at work.

Piloting a train out
of Grand Central,

heading towards, uh,
Westchester County.

Where am I?

[indistinct
announcement over P.A.]

Am I in the hospital?

St. Benjamin's, honey.

This is Dr. Medawar.

She's been taking
great care of you.

What kind of care?

You've been here
six days, Mr. Mora.

There was an accident.

Huh.

I don't remember any accident.

Are you sure?

Completely sure.

You ran headfirst
into another train

that was parked on the tracks.

Four people died.

This true, Gloria?

CT scansof your brain

show that you suffered
a traumatic brain injury.

With traumatic brain
injury, it's quite common

to lose memories
associated with the incident

in which the injury occurred.

In this case, the crash.

Will I ever remember...

what happened, how it happened?

It's possible.

But not terribly likely.

BULL: I guess most of all,

we're looking for more space.

We just had a baby girl and, uh,

it would be great if the
building had a playroom

or maybe a pool.[knocking]

Not right now. Come
back in half an hour.

Why wouldn't you want your baby

welcomed into
the Catholic faith?

I'm gonna have to call you back.

A religious fanatic just
walked into my office.

He's foaming at the
mouthand speaking in tongues.

It's not pretty.

This is not healthy, Benny.

Your sister getting you
involvedin our private business...

It is not good for my
home lifeand it is not good

for your professional
life, if you follow my drift.

You know, Bull...
[clears throat]

Baptism is a holy sacrament.

It frees your child
from original sin.

It cleanses her soul.

Really?

You think my daughter's
soul needs cleansing?

Hmm. What do you think she
doesafter we put her down at night?

Maybe she sneaks
out, robs a bank?

Maybe she's
having a torrid affair

with the neighbor's husband.

Go ahead and make fun.

Okay, I will.

Okay, I won't. Look...

I respect how devout
you are, Benny.

In fact, I even find it
somewhat inspiring.

But not everyone feels
the way you do, uh,

esp... including your sister.

Really? And you know that?

[soft chuckle] Benjamin
Colón, your sister

is the living definition
of a C.E.O. Catholic.

A C.E.O. Catholic?

Christmas, Easter only.

Bull...

every single member of the
Colónfamily has been baptized.

E-Every single one.

W-Why would you want to
preventthat tradition from continuing?

You know what else has
been a family tradition of yours?

Being married when
you have a baby.

And unless the Vatican put
out a memo that I missed,

that's still one of
the sacraments, too.

What does that have
to do with anything?

I'm just saying, I asked
yoursister to marry me, she said no.

How come she's the one
who gets to pick and choose

the sacraments that matter?

[knocking]

Go away. Go away.

This a bad time?

Okay, then. Uh, your
next appointment is here.

Walter and Gloria Mora.

WALTER: The truth is

I can't remember
anything about the accident.

I just can't.

They sayl fell asleep,

and I can't say that I didn't.

You know...

All I know is that
four people are dead.

And I was the one
driving the train.

Hmm.

And you came to us through...

The locomotiveoperator's union.

They gave usa list of lawyers.

And, uh, they said
you two were very good.

Uh, they told me to
give you this letter.

Okay, so...

the union will pay
your legal bills.

Well,

u-uh, can you tell me anything
about the moments before?

You were going to work.

Did you maybe have
a drink beforehand?

Take any cold medicine?

Maybe any other drugs?
Were you unusually tired?

I mean, sure, I was tired.

Yeah, it was midnight
when my shift started.

Anybody'd be tired.

Yeah, um... uh, normally,
I try to work days.

Yeah. Well, the problem is, uh,

when we get into court,

the other side is gonna
ask, "If you were so tired,

why did you go to work
and agree to drive a train?"

That's my job.

You know?

Uh, any time I work
nights, I'm tired.

Everybody is, but it doesn't
stop me from working.

Doesn't stop me
from doing a good job.

The truth is my husband

hasn't been sleeping
wellfor a while.

We... Our daughter passed away

six months ago from leukemia.

Neither of us have
beensleeping well for a while.

I'm so sorry.

I can only imaginehow
painful that must have been.

It was a long battle, and...

she fought hard,

but the good Lordneeded
her in Heaven.

And on top of that,

the train company is
working Walter to the bone.

Long hours. Sometimes
days, sometimes nights.

Anytime they call, he goes,

no questions asked.

Feels like he can't say no.

'Cause if he does,
then they start

scheduling himfor fewer hours.

It's their wayof
keeping you in line.

He was back on a train

three days after we
buried our daughter.

[elevator bell dings]

Okay, boss,

how do we convince
a jury our client

didn't do itwhen even our client

isn't sure he didn't to it?

I honestly don't
know, but that man's

looking at spending the
rest of his life in prison.

Four lives have
already been lost.

We just have to try
and not make it five.

♪

You know, even if
Walterdid fall asleep,

it doesn't necessarily
meanthe crash was his fault.

Really?

Well...

we may have to agree
to disagree on that one.

Do you follow tennis, Benny?

I've, uh, watched a couple
of matches here and there.

Well, you know, in tennisthere
are two types of errors:

there's forced errorsand
unforced errors.

Okay.

So, say you serve the ball,
you hit it out of bounds...

That is an unforced error.

But if you're hitting
itback and forth

and the other guy
hitsa great shot

and you chase the ball,
you barely reach it, but...

you hit it out of bounds...

that's a forced error.

You hit it out of
bounds'cause of the position

the other guy put you in.

And what, if anything,

does that have to
do with our client?

You remember
whatWalter's wife said

about the way the
companyscheduled Walter's work?

Very last-minute.

How if he said no to a
shift, they'd often retaliate

by not offering himanother
one for a long time.

Well...

what if we argued thatif
Walter did fall asleep

it was because of the waythe
company scheduled his work,

and they forced the error

by working himto
the point of exhaustion

and making it
impossiblefor him to maintain

a predictableor
healthy sleep schedule.

[gavel bangs]

We are in the business of
moving people and things

from one point to another,

safely, in a timely way.

Unfortunately, no
matter how many

safety measures
are put in place,

we can't fully control
the human element.

Trains are piloted
by people, and...

people are fallible.

We did a thorough
and comprehensive

internal investigation.

The NTSB did its own
independent investigation.

We all came to the
same conclusion:

the fault lieswith the
man piloting the train.

The fault... lies
with the engineer.

Objection. Your Honor,
isn'tthat for the jury to decide?

The witness has been
qualified as an expert, counselor.

Overruled.

Nothing further, Your Honor.

ROBINSON: Your
witness, Mr. Colón.

Thank you, Your Honor.

Mr. Peterman...

let's talk about
Mr. Mora's work schedule.

Are you familiar with it?

Specifically? No.

But I can assure you our company

follows all national
railway regulatory standards

for hours worked.

Be that as it may,

we should take a lookat
Mr. Mora's work schedule just

prior to the accident.

Ah, I have it right here.

Okay.

So... Mr. Mora worked Monday

from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.

12 hours... the
maximum allowed by law.

Then, 12 hours later,
he was back at work.

Tuesday, from 8:00
a.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Again, the maximum
allowed by law.

Luckily, Mr. Mora
had off on Wednesday.

Was told he wouldn't be
needed again until Thursday.

But at 10:00 p.m.
Wednesday night,

your company contacted him

to pull an emergency shift,

midnight until noon.

So... the man works
all day Monday,

all day Tuesday, then,

was ready for bed
on Wednesday night,

maybe even already asleep,

when you called him

with less than two hours notice,

told him to get out of bed

and come to work for 12 hours.

In darkness and
inclement weather.

Remind me of
what you said earlier

about your commitment to safety?

Objection, Your Honor.

Counsel is badgeringthe witness.

I'd like to answer the question,
if that's okay with the court.

Objection overruled.

You may answer the question.

What you don't
seem to understand

is that if Mr. Mora felt that
he wasn't rested enough

to take the shift, he
could have simply said no.

Mr. Mora was not forced to work.

But isn't it true that

when an engineer
is offered last-minute

or less-desirable shifts,

if he or she makes a
habit of turning them down,

your company
reciprocates by offering him

less and less hours overall?

Mr. Peterman? The witness

will answer the question.

Our company...

never put any pressure
on any employee

to accept additional shifts.

And in the caseof Mr. Mora,

he himself asked
for extra shifts.

[gallery murmuring]

In fact,

Mr. Mora put in a request
to work the maximum amount

of shifts available.

He volunteered
for the relief list,

and to becontacted whenever

there was a
last-minute shift opening.

By the way, I have
those requests in writing.

I'd be happy to share them ifit
would be any help whatsoever.

[gallery murmuring]

Is there anyone
on our side in this?

MARISSA: Not in the jury box.

Mm.

You talk to him? Who's that?

Walter.

About what?

Abo... [sighs]

Bull, the man sat in
our conference room.

He and his wife
told us, plain as day,

that the company made him work.

That they demanded it.

Even after his
daughter's funeral.

We built our entire
case around that,

and the railroad just...

blew it out the water.

And our client let
us walk right into it.

I know.

And no, I
haven'ttalked to him yet.

I will.

Though I don't thinkit's
gonna do any good.

What are you talking about?

Walter doesn't care.

In fact... I'm willing to bet,

deep down, he justwants
it all to be over with.

The trial?

His life.

Oh.

Man's still in mourning.

For the people that
died on his train.

For his little girl.

The man is a walking wake.

He has no will to
survive, no will to live.

He believes he's
guilty of all of it.

And even if he isn't, he
believes he deserves to be.

So where does that leave us?

Same place we were
beforewe had this conversation.

We have to defend the man.

Whether he wants us to or not.

TAYLOR: You know,

just because Walter
asked for those shifts

doesn't mean the company
should have let him take them.

And what aboutthe
thousands of people

who ride the trains every day?

Doesn't the railroad have
an obligation to them?

You're not wrong,
but think about it

from the jury's perspective.

All they see is four dead people

and a tired engineer who
asked to drive the train.

Okay.

Don't laugh.

I've been poking around a bunch

of conspiracy theory websites.

Different ones about
catastrophic accidents.

Boeing Max 737, the
Challengerexplosion.

That kind of thing.

CHUNK [sing-songy]:
I'm telling Bull.

Taylor's a nut job.

Okay, make fun.

But let meremind you

that in the case
of the Challenger

and the case of the
Boeing airline crashes,

it was the conspiracy
theoristswho blew the whistle first.

I can only imagine
what kind of crackpots

you've been talking to.

The thing is... I may
have found something.

There's this one Internet
forumwhere this anonymous poster

has been ranting and ravingever
since Walter's train crash

made the news.

He's telling anyone
who will listen

that the railroad is covering
upwhat really happened.

He says... pardon the pun...
that they're railroading Walter.

You think he's legit?

I do, actually.

You have a name?

I have a name.

I have a background file.

And I may even have
a point of contact.

Well, this sounds like
a job for Danny James.

MAN: Ms. James?

One of those for me?

I'm Frank Uzarski.

Mr. Uzarski, thank
you for coming.

So... you working for Walter?

For his defense team, yeah.

Well, good luck.

You're up againsta very
formidable adversary.

Oh, no thanks, never
before, uh, 9:00 a.m. for me.

You were saying?

I was saying this
wholesituation with your client

got a very déjà vu
quality to it for me.

I was a engineer for almost

14 years at the same railroad.

I had a very similar experienceto
his about six months back.

Wait, you hit a train?

No.

But I came awfully close.

Tell me.

Just what I said.

One day, I was driving a
train on the northern line,

I almost collided
with another one.

Luckily for me,
there was no weather,

it was 2:00 in the afternoon,

so I could see what was coming

and I got on the brake in time.

So, wait, you
didn't hit a train,

but they fired you anyway?

That's my point.

Whole reason I almost
hit that train is because

when I approached the switch
I was given a green signal.

Green means go.

So I went.

And did you tell
the company that?

I sure did.

How did they respond?

They drug tested me.

What did they find?

Exactly what they
wanted to find.

Exactly what they
were hoping to find.

Which is fascinating to
me, because, to the best

of my knowledge, I didn't
have anything in my system

that could have tested positive.

Look... I'm no saint.

But I don't drink or
drug when I work,

and I certainly
don't drink or drug

when I'm trying to convince
somebody I saw a green light

when they're insisting
I saw a red one.

[gavel bangs]

DONOGHUE: Now, can
you please tell the court

how it is you knowWalter Mora?

We attend the same church.

Saint Catherine's of Brooklyn.

And then... we've been
getting to know each other

even better these
past few months.

DONOGHUE: And why is that?

We've both been attending
a grief group at church.

My husband passed
away about a year ago.

And Walter lost his
daughter to cancer.

DONOGHUE: My condolences.

To both of you.

Now, Ms. Combs,

you contactedthe
district attorney's

office yesterday
afternoon, did you not?

I did.

I've been following
the trial on the Internet

and in the paper.

And there are just some
things that Walter said

when we were in grief
group together, things that...

well, they made
me uncomfortable.

And can you share with
us what those things were?

Objection. I have to
believethat these conversations

are protected under
thetherapist-patient privilege,

and are affordedthe
same protections as those

between an
attorneyand his client.

DONOGHUE:
Actually, Your Honor, to

qualify for that privilege,
the group must be moderated

by a licensed therapist,
psychologist or social worker.

None of whichwere present

at this church-sponsored
gathering.

Do you have proof to
the contrary, Mr. Colón?

I do not, Your Honor.

Objection overruled.

The witnessmay
answer the question.

I like Walter.

I really do.

And he and Gloria have
been through so much.

But there was a
grief group meeting

three days before
the train wreck.

And after the meeting,

we were leaving together,
and Walter was saying that

he was having a tough week.

Tougher than most.

He said... his
pain was so great...

he was thinking
about ending it all.

[gallery murmuring]

That some days,

living felt like it was
too much to bear.

DONOGHUE: It
sounds like you're saying

Walter Mora saw the red
light signal and knew a train

was parked on the
tracksin front of him.

That perhaps
instead of seeing it

as an obstruction on the tracks,

he saw it as an opportunity.

An opportunity to,
to use his own words,

"end it all."

Is that whatyou're
trying to tell us?

Your Honor,
objection. Speculation.

Counsel is testifying.

DONOGHUE: I withdrawthe
question, Your Honor.

And, in fact, I have
no further questions.

How bad is it, Marissa?

The jury finds this
witness extremely credible.

They no longer appear
to be questioning

whether or not it
was Walter's fault.

They're only questioning
whether or not

he crashed the train on purpose.

Either way, my monitorslook
like Carrie on prom night.

How did it go today?

It went.

Well, ask me about my
meeting with Frank Uzarski.

What, the, uh,

disgruntled engineerthat
Taylor found online?

Yes, indeed.

Turns out he, too,
had a run-in with a train

he had no idea would be there.

Only, in his case, he was
able to avoid a collision.

Did he report it
to the railroad?

Uh, he sure did.

And then theydrug tested him

and then fired
himfor his efforts.

Um, I'm-I'm confused.

Sounds like they fired
a cannon to kill a flea.

Uh, there was no crash.
There was no accident.

Why fire him?

Well, he claims that the signal

that's supposed to
alert an engineer to stop

when there's a train in his path

told him to go.

I'm not sure how that
applies to our case.

Well, in our case, Walter
was dealing with bad weather.

Extremely low visibility.

So if there was a
signal malfunction,

if he saw green,

that would explain
why he didn't brake.

And with all the rain and fog,

by the time he saw
the parked freight train,

it would have been too late.

Well, that'san
interesting theory,

but need to remind youthat
the NTSB investigation

found no suchsignal malfunction.

Okay. I'll play
devil's advocate.

What if this signal
malfunctiononly happened once?

The same signal
performed perfectly

immediately after
Frank's encounter with it

and right up until Walter's.

An intermittent error.

How about an incident report?

Did he at least file an
incidentreport after his near miss?

I didn't ask that
specific question,

but I know he
went to the railroad

and reported the signal problem.

Then they should
have a record of it.

Which would prove
they were on notice

about a potential
signal malfunction.

BENNY: Maybe you
can just do it for me.

What's that?

Agree to let Astrid be baptized.

[sighs]

You don't want to put
yourselfin the middle of this.

I already am. She's my niece.

Benny, I have
nothingagainst baptism.

In fact, knowingthat it
would make Izzy happy,

make you happy...

It's just... [exhales]

Even though we're not married,

it's a marriage,

except when your
sister decides it isn't.

I have no idea what
you're talking about.

It's okay, 'cause it's not
for you to understand.

It's really between Izzy and me.

All right.

I'll keep my nose out of it.

Thank you.

BENNY: Would you
think any less of me

if I confessed to you I
wasn't looking forward to this?

You mean you're not
excitedto present our case?

Not excited to put
Walteron the stand?

Yeah. I havemy concerns as well.

Maybe I'll have a
littlepep talk with our client.

[knocking]

Come in.

[door opens]

[footsteps approaching]

So, you understand

you're about to
be calledto testify.

Yes, sir.

This will be your
chanceto tell your story.

Your chanceto convince that jury

that you are not responsiblefor
what happened that night.

Okay.

Um... But I can't swear

that I'm not responsible.

I just can't.

I see.

Hmm.

Well, then I've
come to a decision.

What's that?

Mr. Colón and I will
go right to the judge

and withdraw from this case.

You, sir, do not want to win.

You want to use
the justice system

to help you... punish yourself.

For what, I'm not sure.

Maybe it'syour child's cancer.

Maybe it's those people

who died on that train.

Which is fine.

It's your life.

But I am not gonna let the fact

that you have so little
regard for your wife,

so little regard
for life itself,

blemish my record in
the legal community.

Wait.

Wait, wait, wait.

What-what would
you like me to do?

You want me to lie?

I want you to care.

I want you to give a damn.

I'd even consider
staying on board

if you'd just be honest.

What do you mean, be honest?

You don't know what
happened that night.

So, for God's
sake, stop guessing.

Testify to who you are
and what you doknow,

not what might have been.

And stop doing the
other side's job for them.

So what's it gonna be?

BENNY: Now, the prosecutionwould
have this jury believe

that you were suicidalon
the night of the accident,

that you allowed
your train to collide

with the freight
trainon purpose.

Is that true, Mr. Mora?

Of course it's not true.

BENNY: And why should this jury

believe that?

Well, because, if you know me,

you know that I believe in God.

You know that I believe

in the church's teachings.

I go to churchevery week.

My wife and I

took our little girl every week.

So I know that she's in heaven.

I know that the good Lord

has welcomed her soul.

And I know if I
wereto commit suicide,

I'd never see heaven.

Which means that I wouldn't ever

see my little girl again.

BENNY: Thank you, Mr. Mora.

No further questions,
Your Honor.

He's a pretty good witness.

What'd you say to him?

Nothing much.

I just lied.

Smart.

I guess.

DONOGHUE: Thank you
for your testimony, Mr. Mora.

It was... very moving.

But the fact remains

that four people are dead.

And despitewhat you've said,

an investigation concluded

that it was human
error that killed them.

Your error.

Even if you didn't

cause the
collisionintentionally,

can you say with 100% certainty

that you didn't fall
asleepat that wheel?

In over 14 years
and 25,000 hours,

I've never nodded off.

Not once.

Not for a single second.

Really?

And how do we prove that?

Or do we just accept it,

because you've never
crashed a train before?

Just like we're supposed
to accept the fact

that you can't
remember anything.

BENNY: Objection. Your Honor,

counsel is testifying and
badgering the witness.

Sustained.

Ask a question, please.

That's all right, Your Honor.

I have no further questions.

Talk to me.

They were moved,

but not enough to
change their minds.

Yeah.

We got to their hearts
but not their heads.

I can see it from here.

They want someone
to hold accountable,

and he was the
man at the controls.

Do me a favor.

Call Izzy.

Tell her I'm gonna be home late.

I need to get
measured for a new suit.

Sure.

What's the occasion?

Baptism.

The baby, not me.

"Ladies and
gentlemen of the jury,

"I'm sure you've all
heard that old saying,

"'If a tree falls in the forest

"'but there's no
one there to hear it,

"does it make a sound?'

"Likewise, if a man
is driving a train

"and it has a fatal accident

"but the man can't
remember what happened,

"does it automatically make
himthe cause of that accident?

Because, at..."[knocking]

Hey. How's the closing
argument coming?

Well, I'm not convinced,

and I'm the guy writing it.

Yeah.

Oh, hey.

I hear we're having a baptism.

Oh, yeah.

It suddenly occurred to me
last night none of my teams

are playing three
Sundays from now.Mm.

I'll take it.

God moves people
in strange ways.

Thank you.

Oh, don't thank me.

Thank the NBA.

TAYLOR: I couldn't help myself. I
spentthe night working from home.

You want the good news, the
bad news or the good news?

Is this a trick question?

Okay, I'll start
with the good news.

Don't ask me how,

but I was able to
locate the incident report

Danny said you
wanted me to find.

The one that was filed when
Frank Uzarski complained

to the company that he was
givena green signal instead of a red

and almost ran into a train.

That is good news.

So what's the bad news?

Well, nowhere in it
does it say anything

about a signal malfunction.

The thing is, whether
Frank was drunk, stoned

or just lying,

his statements should have
beenincluded in that report.

And they aren't.

You have a theory about why?

Maybe the company deleted
any mention of signal failures

from their records in the
wake of Walter's crash.

They heardabout
his brain injury,

heard he
couldn'tremember anything.

It's kind of perfect. If
you can make it look

like there's never
been a signal problem,

you can blame the
whole thing on Walter.

Interesting theory.

How are you gonna prove it?

Ask me about the good news.

Oh. You have any good news?

I see no additional names
on the witness list today.

Does that mean the
defense is prepared to rest

and we can commence
with closing arguments?

Actually, Your Honor,

the defense is not
quite readyto rest yet.

In fact, we'd liketo
recall a witness.

If it pleases the court,

the defense would like to call.

Ray Peterman back to the stand.

Mr. Peterman, I've just got

a couple of brief
follow-up questions.

Now, uh, you told
the court previously

that there was no evidence
of a mechanical failure

on any of the railroad
safety systems.

Do you still believe
that to be true?

I do.

Okay. All right.

Oh, and... let me
remind the court

that you are certified
as an expert witness.

Now, with that in mind,

let me ask a hypothetical.

Let's say my
client, Walter Mora,

is piloting a
train late at night,

and there is another train

stopped on the
track in front of him.

The weather is bad,
it's really dark outside,

so he really can't
see that train.

But the rail signal...
The railroad stop light...

The one he depends on, is green.

And it was supposed to
be red to tell him to stop,

because there was
another trainin front of him,

but it doesn't.

It's just a steady green.

Now, could something
like that happen?

This is my favorite part.

Coyote first sees
the Road Runner

and thinks, "Dinner."

PETERMAN: Honestly,

rail signal malfunctions
are extremely rare.

Got it, got it. Extremely rare.

Now... as I understand it,

the way it works is
the rail signal apparatus

senses when there's
a train up ahead of it,

so it knows to
display the red light

and stop the train
behind it from proceeding.

Do I have it right?

Yes. The weight of the
train serves to stop the circuit,

which triggers the red light.

And the chase
begins. BENNY: Okay.

So if there was a
signal malfunction,

which you already
testified is extremely rare,

the light would just stay green

instead of turning red,
right? PETERMAN: Again,

kind of like a snowstorm
in the Mojave Desert, but...

yes, that is what would happen.

BENNY: So Mr. Mora

would be driving the train,

he would see that green light

and believe he was supposed
to keep right on going,

but the signal malfunction
would actually be leading him

to a head-on collision with
another train, wouldn't it?

Objection. Relevance?

Why are we spending

this kind of timewith a witness

we've already heard from

to offer an opinion
on a hypothetical

when we've tasked this
jury with making a decision

about a very real,
very deadly accident?

And now is whenthe Road
Runner gets the Coyote

to chase him really fast.

So fast the Coyote
doesn't even realize

the Road Runner's
tricked him into running

right off the edge of a cliff.

Beep-beep.

BENNY: I apologize, Your Honor.

He's right.

Forget what I saidabout
this being a hypothetical.

Let's talk about
the real signal,

the one that was
supposed to separate

the train my client was piloting

with the one he hit.

Let's talk about that signal.

And, of course, now
the Coyote looks down,

realizes there's nothing
but air beneath him,

and goes falling hundreds
of feet into the canyon below.

That particular signal
was tested by the NTSB

and our own investigators.

To be clear, the signal
that Mr. Mora ignored

was working
properly. Yeah, but...

these signals are
machines, right?

Uh, they're capable
of failure, aren't they?

I mean, isn't it possible

that the signal
could have failed...

intermittently?

Isn't it possible

that the signal could have
malfunctioned this one time

despite working
properly every other time?

I'm not sure I
understand the question.

If you're asking if
anything is possible,

well, then yes, of course,
anything is possible.

But if you're asking if
that's what happened here,

let me repeat myself.

According to the NTSB

and our own investigators,

that is not what happened here.

Okay.

Well, then can you
explain this to me?

Now, this here... is
a maintenance report

for work ordered
after the accident

that we would like
to enter into evidence

as defense exhibit A.

Now, do you recognize

this maintenance
report, Mr. Peterman?

Sure. It's a routine report.

We put them out whenever repairsor
maintenance need to be done.

Okay. And-and can
you explain to the court

what maintenance was ordered?

[clears throat] It says...

that the signal at marker 264

needed to be replaced.

BENNY: And isn't the signal

at marker 264[mouthing]

the same signal that
was supposed to separate

the train Walter was driving

from the train he collided with?

[gallery murmuring]

Yes, I believe it was.

BENNY: Mr. Peterman,

if the signal wasn't faulty

then why are you replacing it?

Well...

we aren't just replacing
that one signal.

We're replacing all
the signalson that line.

It's... part of a routine
system upgrade.

But... according to this report,

those signals are
only ten months old.

I mean, does your
company routinely replace

entire lines of signals
after only ten months?

Never mind. Never mind.

I have another question.

Uh...

Mr. Peterman, you see this

heavy file folder here?

There's a bunch of
work orders in here.

Work orders to replace

the same type of signal on a...

freight line in Missouri,

on a passenger line
just outside of D.C.,

and a line in Canada.

These are all lines

that are owned by
your railroad company.

Coincidence?

I'm sorry, Mr. Peterman,
I can't hear you.

I'm gonna need you to speak up.

I wouldn't want this
jury to misunderstand.

No.

I wouldn't want them
to think that you knew

this wreck wasn't
Walter Mora's fault.

That you and
therailroad you work for

covered up an earlier
incident involving faulty signals.

Objection.

Counsel is testifying.

And by ignoring that
earlier incident, Your Honor.

You and the
railroad you work for

are actually directly
responsible for this disaster.

Or...

that you and the
company you work for

are more than willing to
send an innocent man to prison

if it means you'd
bear no responsibility

for your mistakes.

I wouldn't want the jury
to jump to that conclusion,

Objection. So speak up.

Objection! Quiet.

I need order.

Quiet.

Mm. Okay.

I see he doesn't
want to discuss it.

Your Honor, a
little help, please.

Objection overruled.

The witness will
answer the question.

Questions.

I'm afraid I'm going to
have to plead the Fifth.

[gallery murmuring]

[sighs]

[groans]

Oh.

[chuckles]

What a great concept, Bull.

What a great idea.

A-A victory dinner.

We should do that
after every case we win.

Yeah. But in
orderto be a dinner,

you have to...
actually eat something.

Mm-hmm.

Damn, I knew we
forgot something.

Well, next time.[grunts]

Here's a little
somethingfor you.

From me. What?

Yeah.Oh... I have never...

received a gift after winning
a case, Bull. Thank you.

No, that's not what it's
for. Go ahead, open it.

Wha...

[chuckles]

I don't get it. What is it?

How are you gonna be a
godfatherwithout watching The Godfather?

Uh, g... godfather?

You want me to be
Astrid's godfather?

Yes, I do.

And so does Izzy.

And... maybeit's
the liquor talking,

but I'm pretty surel
heard Astrid say

that she wanted you, too.

Wow.

I could not be
more honored, Bull.

Thank you.Eh.

Thank you. This is...

[imitates Marlon Brando]: You
made me an offer I can't refuse.

Please don't do that.

[imitates Al Pacino]: Just
when I thought I was out,

you pull me right back in.

No, no, no, you're not
evendoing the same charac...

Attica! Attica!

Pull over. I'm
gonna take an Uber.

[imitates Robert De Niro]:
Hey. You talkin' to me?

MAN: What?

You talkin' to me?

Well... I'm the only
one here. Right?
