All language subtitles for Matlock 01x16 The Johnson Case [2025-04-03 21-01] uswcbs HQ

Previously. Good evening, Marcus.

Good evening, Mrs. Kingston.

The law firm Jacobson Moore hid
documents that could have taken opioids

market ten years earlier.

Think of how many lives that could have
saved, including our daughters.

That pen is a recording device.

Junior, partner race, the divorce.

What did I do before you, Madeline
Matla? How about invasion of privacy?

Can we start fresh?

I just want honesty.

Done.

So, no more looking back?

Talk to me about slammed.

This is the case that's winning me
partner.

40 million.

Hell of a settlement.

Olympia is a suspect.

Are you sure you're feeling okay?

You and Olympia were friends.

I thought Olympia was someone she isn't.
And she definitely thinks I'm someone

I'm not. Glad to have clarity.

Oh, we're reaching out to the Redditor.
What's a Redditor? It's a person who

posted on the Reddit board about the
hidden well Brexit documents.

Read them and weep. 31.

I got high when Barry Manilow was sick.

Your fur baby.

Exactly.

Read them in Weep 31.

But I know who it is.

for coming.

I knew that you cared.

Where are you? Where I can see that your
shoes are black. And your top is green.

I just have a few questions.

Then come out and talk to me. Did you
look through the information I sent you?

We know what the missing documents were.
A marketing study.

I just need you to confirm our timeline.

Not until I know who you are. It's not
fair. Fair?

You want to talk about what's fair?

You knew that World Brexit took those
documents 14 years ago.

And you didn't come forward.

And people died.

I did what I could. No.

You posted on a Reddit board and you
hid. Like you're hiding now?

The timeline.

Did you look at it? I did.

And it's wrong.

Wrong? In what way?

And when I'm telling you it took every
ounce of willpower not to march over

there and just shake that smugness right
out of her. Is she telling the truth or

is she bluffing? I don't know.

And I hate that I don't know. Well, if
we're wrong about the window when the

study was stolen, we'd also be wrong
about Olympia doing.

I'm not letting that thought in. I made
the mistake of letting my heart lead my

head once. And that's not happening
again.

We need to find out if Belvin is telling
the truth.

What are you thinking?

The carrot didn't work.

So now it's time for the stick.

Oh, there she is.

Oh, that's her victory lap. Just
reminding everyone that we do it

in heels.

Oh, can you make drinks tonight? I want
to take our whole team out to celebrate.

Oh, sure.

Alfie's got some biology thingamadoodle,
and I'm on cut -and -glue duty.

Cut -and -glue duty is important.

But we're good, right?

You and me?

These last few weeks with Sland have
been slam.

And I just want to say...

that I clearly couldn't have done it
without you.

And when I make partner, knock on
elevator, I'll need you by my side.

Well, good, because that's where I'm
posting up.

Morning, Kyle.

the last enough?

Let's talk.

Maddie, hi. I need your call on our
respectful disagreement.

Disagreement? Yes.

Respectful? Less so, because you are
wrong. She's going to jinx it. You can't

jinx a shoe -in. You can, by calling it
a shoe -in. Just wait until after

Olympia presents her final presentation
to the partner board to ask for your

first case. But you can say that because
you've already had a case.

Olympia's in a good mood. It's the right
time to ask.

I can't believe this.

And Liza just told me that the partner
board is unhappy with my performance.

And there's the change.

What? Why?

Apparently, there's a sense amongst the
corporate clients that my slammed class

action took down one of their own.
Suddenly, I'm not a team player or

material. I can't even win when I win.

Amina's here.

I'll see you guys in the conference
room.

Who's Amina? The old you. Well,
actually, the young you. The old young

Olympia's law school bestie.

Took two very different paths.

Olympia went corporate and Amina joined
the public defender's office.

Golden handcuffs versus real handcuffs.
Exactly.

Olympia, this is Isabel Sanchez. Isabel,
this is the only person I'm scared of

in court.

Oh, okay.

You're here because you need something.
Of course I need something. I made an

appointment and everything. But you are
great and resourceful and well -funded,

which is what Isabel needs.

Got it.

What's going on?

I was in a jury 21 years ago, and we got
it wrong.

There's a man sitting in a prison for a
crime he didn't commit.

Amina said maybe you could help him.

Eugene Molina was a doorman charged with
murdering one of the building's

tenants, Linda Gallo. And this was 21
years ago.

Prosecution argued Linda lodged a
complaint. Gene snapped, used his

to get in, and stabbed her to death. In
the nine -minute window, he left his

desk to pick up dinner for another
tenant.

Must have been some complaint.

It wasn't. That's the thing. She
complained about all the doormen. It

make sense.

Any eyewitnesses? An unreliable one.

Teenager. Said the man was six feet.

Gene's only 5 '6".

She picked him out of a lineup, but the
NYPD was still doing single blinds back

then. DNA?

None of it matched Jean, and the police
tested everything.

The carpet, magazines, the socks under
the couch, the spoon on the floor near

the body. Plus the caviar thing.

What's that? Well, during the original
trial, they showed us all these pictures

of the crime scene. And there was this
trail of caviar from the kitchen to the

living room. But the rest of the
apartment?

Spotless. And Linda was one of those
ladies with a housekeeper who came every

single day.

She could have made the mess herself
before she died.

Autopsy said Linda hadn't eaten in
hours.

She still had her jacket on. She just
got home.

Doesn't make sense.

Jim was so mad, he went to pick up a
tennis dinner, run upstairs, murder

had some caviar.

In nine minutes?

That does sound pretty insane.

So what happened in deliberation?
Everyone else thought he did it. I

the caviar over and over, but nothing.
But you must have voted guilty.

Or else it would have been a hung jury.

Not at first.

I said no.

I tried to talk.

But Dale, the foreman, he told me I was
wasting everyone's time.

He said I was just dragging this out so
I can get a free lunch from the

government. Jeez. And he kept on
screaming at me. And everyone else

him. He took away my chair so I had to
stand. And I just, I gave.

And Gene was found guilty.

And I have regretted it every day since.

Then why did you wait so long to come
forward?

Sorry.

I'm just trying to understand.

I just thought eventually it would right
itself.

That one of his appeals would work.

When the last one was denied, I called
the DA.

I mean, I was the only one who would
help me.

But I can't. I mean, not really. We have
no resources in my office.

Can we have a moment?

In private.

Oh, no, that's the look you gave Mills
when he gave you a B -plus in torts. I

don't even know what the case is about.
I was hoping you'd have one of those

Hail Mary epiphanies, like the night you
figured out the meaning of life.

Okay, there were other substances
involved, and I believe my answer was

and Cristal. Have you yet to hear a
better one? Come on, after Slammed,

got to have some capital around here.
Bennett developing novel legal arguments

for someone who needs you.

Oh, what the hell?

Does that mean you're in? That means
I'll talk to Jean, then I'll decide.

But in return, there is something I need
from you.

A juror thinks I didn't do it.

She does.

She thought your case would resolve on
appeal.

And when it didn't, she found us.

So, we wanted to hear from you.

Can you walk us through the night of
Linda's murder?

It's all in the transcripts.

Right.

But is there anything you want to add?

Anything you think they missed or you
didn't get to say?

I thought everything.

I read that you left your post to go
across the street to pick up food for a

tenant, correct?

Life before DoorDash, huh?

What's DoorDash?

Sorry, right.

Look, Gene, you don't want our help.
It's been 21 years.

I have a routine.

I work in the library.

It's a hard job to get, but I get to
read a lot.

Law mostly.

So what do you say?

You're afraid to hope.

That's right, Gene.

Over the years, during the appeals, I
think finally...

Nightmare would be over.

Leave myself sick.

I had to just move on.

Understood.

You don't have to hope.

In fact, you shouldn't.

Just answer our questions, and if
there's hope, we'll carry it for you.

Why did Linda Viola complain about you?

I forgot to bring up her dry cleaning.

She followed about two a month. That's
who she was.

I felt bad for her.

All that money.

She was lonely.

So she complained.

I apologized after her dinner party.

When she left for the Hamptons the next
morning, we were fine.

And that was the last time you saw her
alive?

Exactly.

On Saturday, I went out to get dinner
for 3A.

Didn't know Linda was home, but she came
back to the city early. And I know

she's dead.

But I'm being charged.

He didn't do it. No way, no how, no
chance. So, we're taking the case. We

And since all of Gene's appeals have
been exhausted, we are going to have to

a pretty brilliant workaround.

Cool. What's the workaround?

I have no idea.

How are we even supposed to get in front
of a judge if Gene's exhausted his

appeals?

Isabel's on the phone?

I'll call her right back as soon as we
have a plan.

I can't imagine what it's been like
carrying that guilt all these years.

Probably not as bad as it's been for
Jane sitting in a prison cell for 21

Ooh, cold and callous is usually my
thing, but I like this on you. I'm just

saying, Isabel got to decorate Christmas
trees, blow out birthday candles, and

go to the grocery store.

She had a life. A life haunted by an
extremely traumatic experience in a jury

room that no one should ever have gone
through. That's it.

Isabel was belittled, berated, and
battered into silence.

That foreman, Dale, was intentionally
bullying her into voting guilty.

Intentional infliction of emotional
distress.

Yep, and I .I .E .D. is our door into
Jean's case.

We go through Isabelle's trauma.

Mailroom just dropped us.

This is insanity.

First off, the statute of limitations
has long passed.

Incorrect. It resets on appeal.

And Eugene Molina's last one was
rejected three months ago.

Fascinating. Unfortunately, you can't
sue a juror. Juror immunity is the

fundamental principle in our legal
system.

So you can steal from a fellow juror?
Murder a fellow juror? I didn't.

Don't be ridiculous.

Verbal and emotional harassment is not
your right as a jury foreman. Things can

get heated in the deliberation room.
Agreed, but we're not talking about

We're talking tortuous intentional
infliction of emotional distress, which

prevented my client from doing her
constitutionally mandated duty. She

vote her conscience. Your client was
keeping everyone away from their

over a few clumps of caviar. No, she was
carefully examining the evidence

because she took her job seriously. And
my client took his job as foreman very

seriously. Oh, please.

Mr. Foster truly believed the defendant
was guilty, as did ten other jurors. If

anything, he's the one being harassed
here. My client should be suing Mrs.

Sanchez for IIED.

Your Honor, Counsel Cross is absolutely
right.

But the real question is, who was acting
extreme and outrageously, her client or

mine? And the only way to determine that
is to decide if it was reasonable to

doubt Jean's guilt. What are you
proposing, Counselor? Order us to look

Eugene Molina's case. If Jean was
obviously guilty, then Mr. Foster was

reasonable in his actions as foreman.
But if we find cause for doubt... then

client was reasonable and Dale's actions
rise to the level of IIED.

Illegal or worse, I'm interested.

I'll give you 48 hours to untangle it.

Otherwise, I'm granting summary judgment
for Mr. Foster.

Okay, we have two days to prove a man's
innocence when one trial, six appeals,

and three different lawyers couldn't.
All the previous appeals were based on

procedural grounds.

So, we have to focus on proving Jean's
innocence.

And the most obvious place to start is
with the eyewitness.

She was 16.

Let's just hope that she's had a nagging
doubt over the last 21 years. We'll get

her in for an interview. Great. D .A.
had two other tenants from the building

the stand.

Maddie, can you call them in? I could,
but I actually think we should call in

the tenant they didn't have testify.

The appellate attorney's notes said the
detective put little stars next to three

tenants in the building.

Two they called in, and tenant 6C.

Why star it unless they said something
important?

And why leave one off unless it didn't
serve their case?

Exactly. Do we know who Tennessee is?

The rental records show that a
corporation held the lease at the time.

According to the Secretary of State, the
corporation's now defunct.

I could ask Gene, see if he remembers.

Great.

Amina sent this for you. She said it's
about the Johnson case. The Johnson

I don't remember that one. Good, thank
you.

Go and prep for the eyewitness
interview.

Olympia's lying.

I keep an Excel file of everything
current, closed, and pending, and there

such thing as the Johnson case.

So what's your theory? Because I know
you have one. Her big play to clinch the

partner position backfired, and now all
of a sudden she's taking on an innocent

-type project case and huddling with her
bestie from law school who works for

the PD's office.

So you think she wants to move over
there? Admit it's not out of the

It's not out of the question.

Oh, no, you were supposed to say it is
out of the question, and that means I'm

right, which means this is an emergency.

No, an emergency is the fact that we
have 43 hours left to get a man out of

prison.

Lieutenant 6C?

If you could just try to remember.

You know it probably won't lead
anywhere.

6C was Cheryl...

Clausen, I think.

Not sure of the spelling.

Got it.

It probably won't change anything
anyway.

No reason to hope.

Hello? You won't believe this. Maddie?

Is that you? You still got that voice
thing on.

Belvin did not pick up. We're gonna have
to escalate.

Maddie?

Maddie, oh, thank God.

Oh, my.

Is this who I think it is?

Yes, it's Barry Manilow. Oh, cute as a
bug's ear.

Kimlin, are you okay?

You seem upset.

I am, because I have to get a dental
procedure done.

Oh! Oh, no. So I will be going under
anesthesia and

unavailable if Barry needs me.

I know what great care you took of your
cookie.

Are you asking me to take care of Barry
Manilow for you?

There are so few people I trust to give
him his eye drops correctly.

Emmeline, it would be my honor to send
that little gal over to me.

Mrs. Belden says Barry Manilow is safe
now, so you no longer have the upper

hand.

All right. Easy, Cruella.

This is too perfect.

She just handed me her dog.

Keep reading. What else did Belden say?
She said, tomorrow you'll go to Dublin's

at two.

Order a stout and wear a red hat.

Sorry, but I know my next step.

We'll keep Barry here, and I'll tell her
that I'll be staying home from school

to watch him. Oh, uh, Madeline, I'm not
a dog person.

Edwin, you were a college professor. You
can take care of a dog.

Your case?

Yeah.

Our eyewitness is standing by her story.

I don't understand these women.

Our client, Belvin, they see an
injustice, and then they wait.

We're going to follow through, aren't
we, Barry?

Yes, we are.

And we're going to thick them.

You're babysitting Mrs. B's dog? The
point is, Barry had to get up and tinkle

the crack of dawn, and I couldn't get
back to sleep. So I combed through

media posts, dating profiles, and voila!

The address and phone number of Cheryl
Clawson, 6C.

Wow, I'm impressed.

I actually taught Maddie everything she
knows about how to research like a

professional stalker.

Which is why you are the perfect person
to find out if Olympia's leaving the

firm. Olympia's doing what now? We don't
know for sure that that's happening. I

have proof.

One may have done a thing. What thing?

I just asked Annie if I could look
through something in Olympia's client

compensation. What? It's not my fault
that she gave me access to all of

Olympia's billables since she started 15
years ago.

You were able to look back that far?

I will not confirm or deny, but I will
say...

There is no Johnson case.

I think that Olympia and Amina are
actually working together to get Olympia

job at the public defender's office.

Maddie, this is our future, too. If
she's leaving, I have, like, three

need to suck up to. Way more.

Will you please ask her?

Okay. Next time I see her.

Thank you.

Also, Olympia would like to see you in
her office, by the way.

I told her you'd be there in five.

What's up, boss?

Just in need of a good old -fashioned
brainstorming session because so far

found exactly nothing new.

Hoping Cheryl Clawson leads somewhere.

Same.

I can't believe that eyewitness won't
recant. She was off by six inches.

She's told herself the same story for
the last 21 years.

Hard to admit you could have been wrong
about something so big.

So true.

Can I come clean?

The kids think the Johnson case is some
kind of a code name and that you're

conspiring with Amina to blow this
popsicle stand.

I've been thinking about it.

Really? Mm -hmm.

Okay.

Well, I didn't see that coming.

I'm always rowing upstream, and it would
be better for my family.

Not to work with Julian.

Honestly, the only thing I'd really miss
is you.

It's wild to me, Maddie, how far we've
come.

Remember when you left your dinner here?

No. And I had to bring that fettuccine
alfredo all the way to your apartment in

Queen.

We barely knew each other, and you
invited me in. An invitation, you

Didn't get out of there fast enough.

Never thought you'd end up... becoming
the person I would go to for everything.

The cases, you were a big part of me
winning slammed. I'd like to submit into

evidence, file a medical record, even if
you did almost mess it up.

But you came through.

And with my marriage, you protected me
when it got messy.

That pen is a recording device. Julian,
the partner race, the divorce.

You turned out to be the complete
opposite of what I thought. And not just

because I now know you get high.

Hey, Maddie.

Want some ice cream?

Why would I want ice cream?

Because you look a little stone, Maddie.

Sounds like you're saying goodbye.

No, I'm still thinking about it.

I'm just...

In a sentimental mood, I guess.

Let's keep this between us for now,
okay?

Always.

Maddie said that Olympia avoided the
question.

What now? You're 10 o 'clock.

Hi, Cheryl Clausen, 6C. Hi, Cheryl.
Thank you so much for coming. Oh, excuse

getup. I came straight from spin class.

Hey, do you guys ever take on any pro
bono work? My trainer could really use a

lawyer. Not really. Except sometimes.

Here's a card.

But first, Linda Gallo. Do you remember
her?

Of course.

Used to live next door.

She had the penthouse, and I rented the
studio that she was fish she didn't own.

And then all of a sudden, she was gone.

According to her notes, cops took your
statement but didn't call you to the

stand. Do you know why?

They didn't say, but come on.

They weren't interested in hearing what
an emotional woman had to say about an

argument she heard through the walls.

You heard an argument?

With Jean?

No, with her grandson, Roger.

The day before she died.

No, there's nothing in here about a
grandson.

What do you mean? He isn't even in the
notes?

Classic confirmation bias. They have a
suspect in sight and then ignore

everything that doesn't fit their
narrative. What did she fight about with

grandson? The usual.

Linda thought he was a deadbeat, and he
was always on her about his inheritance.

He was basically a vulture on the wall
waiting for Linda to die. And we looked

at the probate for her estate. Worth
eight figures.

Sounds like motive to me. It gets
better.

Roger's six feet tall, and the cops
never checked if he had an alibi the

Linda was murdered.

Go talk to him. Take Maddie. If he
didn't have an alibi, he's definitely

going to offer it up. Got it. We'll have
her do one of her Maddie tricks.

By which I mean talk to people nicely.

Your home reminds me of my Aunt
Bertie's. She had a living room that was

with fineries.

We thought she was rich, and then when
she died, boy, oh, boy, did we learn the

difference between antiques and old
junk.

Clearly not the case here.

Sometimes it's hard to tell what's of
value.

So you said there was news in my
grandmother's case?

Yes. Oh, may I have a sandwich?

That's why they're here?

I know, but you're the host.

You have to go first.

It's the law of the South.

So we're here because a juror in your
grandmother's case thinks she made a

mistake. Wait, didn't we see one of
these in the evidence photos?

Was it Delaware? Yes, I replaced and
remounted the display like Grandma Lynn

it. So Grandma Lynn didn't use the
spoons?

You don't eat on antiquities.

Maybe on old junk.

But then again, one was found near your
grandmother's body.

The display case was broken.

Gene must have done that. So he killed
her in a fit of rage and then ate caviar

with one of her prized spoons?

I'm not sure what you're getting at.

Did you and she...

Ever argue? Because one of your
neighbors heard you and your grandma get

argument the day before she died.

Are you implying that I was involved in
my grandmother's death?

Oh, we're just dotting our ass and
crossing our decorative spoon.

I loved my grandmother.

The week she died, I threw her a 70th
birthday party. It is the only thing

has given me peace all these years. That
and the sizable estate you inherited.

Get out before I call the police.

Now! Ladies.

Cops only scrape the spoon for blood,
not saliva.

We need the saliva tested.

Alongside this sample of Roger's saliva.

Wow, that's a slick move.

Patty's idea, law of the south.

Where is she? Dealing with Belvin's dog?

Honestly, that woman's a saint.

Hey there, wanted to see how you were
feeling and give you a little update on

Barry Manilow. Just recovering from my
procedure.

Is he okay?

Oh, he's better than okay.

He's such a sweetheart. And Alfie said
he really loves Adam.

Adam? Yeah. Your friend Adam, who came
to get Barry.

My friend Adam has Barry?

Yeah. He passed along a message that you
were trying to get a hold of me. And,

you know, at first I was a little mad at
Alfie for just handing over Barry

Manilow. But Alfie said Adam knew all
about Barry's eye drops and everything.

Wait.

Did I do something wrong?

No. No.

My friend Adam has Barry now.

Sure does.

Thank you.

I need to call you back. My dentist is
calling.

Bye.

So now you're ready to talk.

First, I need proof that my dog is okay.

Oh, my God.

Hello.

Oh, my God, that's his cadence.

He's fine and he's happy. And you'll
have him back just as soon as you tell

why my timeline is wrong.

There was a fire drill in the building
that day. That's when the document went

missing. A fire drill?

Yes, at 11 .30.

And during the fire drill, the doors get
unlocked, which means no key card

required.

How do you know the documents from
Welbrecht weren't taken before?

Because I was in charge of scanning the
discovery back then.

That's when the alarm went off. When I
came back, one of the folders was

suddenly empty. How did you narrow it
down to three suspects?

No. You said if I told you the timeline,
I'd get Barry back.

This is the last question.

So what did she say?

That of the team of people working on
the Wellbrexit case, Julian, Olympia,

Senior were the only ones who didn't
sign in to the fire drill. Now, we know

Senior was in Australia. So now we're
back to 50 -50.

It's either Olympia or Julian.

We need to figure out where they were.

And I know where to look for her.

So what's the plan?

What are you looking for?

Well, we have Olympia's laptop, which
means we have access to her billable.

Please, Grammy, can we keep him?
Definitely not.

Whoa. Olympia charged a client from 9
.50 to 12 .45 p .m. on our date for a

court appearance.

Well, how do you know it was for a court
appearance?

The billing code.

So it wasn't Olympia?

She didn't take the well -breakfast
study?

Well, billables can be faked. Look what
we've done.

We need absolute proof that Olympia was
in court.

And we're going to get it. Uh -oh. Very
manilopeed.

Relax,

Edwin. He's just an animal.

Tomorrow you'll return him.

I'm coming.

The last time a woman showed up in my
office this often unannounced, I had to

get a restraining order.

Did you get my email?

I did. Did you read the case file?

I did not.

Come on, an innocent man could be
sitting behind bars.

You mean a man that was convicted by a
jury of 12 of his peers?

Technically only 11.

One juror, my client, is convinced he's
innocent.

Right. I heard.

Bullied into a yes.

Seems improbable, huh?

Then again, maybe you've had the
privilege of never being made to feel

opinion was not valid.

I have.

But your mom has, too.

Even if I wanted to help you, I
couldn't.

A lot of my superiors were here when
that case came through.

Thanks for stopping by, Counselor.

Who do you want to be, Park?

Like, for Halloween?

Like, for life.

This is one of those moments where you
stick your neck out for someone

because... because it's just the right
thing to do.

And I know you care about what's right.

When you were in college, you exposed
campus security's racial profiling. You

ran housing clinics for the homeless in
law school. You put bad guys away for a

living. And yeah, the risk is really
high.

But think of the reward.

I actually wish I could help you.

I'm sorry.

Did someone send over that deal memo for
Opterian? Because I need it.

Hey, you need something?

I can just come back later.

No, no, it's fine.

Give me 15.

Thank you, guys.

Thank you.

What's up?

Do you need a hug?

at the Auburn Correctional Facility.
Gene, is everything all right?

Yeah, yeah.

Just checking in because the deadline's
creeping up, so... It's not looking

good.

I'm sorry. I wish I had better news.

Okay.

That's what I thought.

Just making sure.

I'll be here in a minute.

I know what you think.

That I waited too long.

But you don't know what it was like in
that room.

Over and over I tried to talk.

But the foreman, Mr. Foster, kept
shutting me down.

Terrible.

But if you knew you were right... I
didn't.

I thought I was right.

But I was the only one, and I was also
taught to respect authority.

Men specifically.

When I came to this country, became
white men.

They were always in charge.

Could get you in trouble if you did
anything wrong.

Like imagine that girl going up against
the top guy here.

I understand.

I'm sorry I didn't before.

I'm just checking in.

How are you feeling after your dental
procedure?

Great. It was way less invasive than I
expected. Good.

I know it was scary to get that dental
work done. I'm so glad it's behind you.

Me too.

you doing here? What can I say? You got
to me. I sent this phone in for testing.

Did you clear with the DA?

I did not, which means I could lose my
job.

Tell me it was worth it. Did the saliva
match Rogers?

No, it did not.

That said, what we found is way better
for your case.

For the record, how did you come to know
about this case?

A relentless and rather irritating
lawyer brought it to my attention.

So you did not want to get involved?

No, I did not.

So why are you here?

Because you subpoenaed me.

And also because justice is supposed to
be blind.

So I took a good look at the Molina case
and decided to have the spoon tested

for a saliva profile.

And did it match who I thought it would
match, Roger?

It did not.

What did you do next?

I ran it through the federal DNA
database.

And who did it match?

John Quinmar Jr., a three -time
convicted felon who died in prison six

while serving a sentence for burglary.

Apparently his M .O. was to case Holmes
while he worked as a catering waiter,

then go back later and burglarize them.

And were you able to find out if John
Quinmar Jr.

ever catered an event at Linda Gallo's
home?

He did. For Ms. Gallo's 70th birthday
party.

The night before her murder.

As a result, my office has been working
all morning to get Eugene Molina

released.

You should have believed me.

Ladies and gentlemen, in light of the
evidence presented, I'm entering summary

judgment on behalf of Isabel Sanchez.

It

wasn't

Olympia, Maddie. You were right.

The transcript is public record. They
emailed it over. She was in court.

She was in court.

During the fire drill, Olympia didn't
take the Welbrechts' study.

Oh, Edwin.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Okay, fine.

Worth losing my job.

Oh, you're not losing it.

You're about to become the most valuable
guy in the DA's office.

Eugene Molina would not be free today
without ADA Andrew Park, who went back

through his own office's work to right a
wrong.

It has been one of the greatest
privileges of my career to partner with

office who cares so much about truth and
integrity.

See? That is the speech of a woman who
is leaving.

Uh -oh.

Did I bomb?

You're leaving, aren't you? To go to the
public defender's office and your first

case is a Johnson case, right?

I considered leaving.

But then I realized I need my resources
here.

Meaning my team.

I did that press conference so ADA Park
would have a public profile.

But also, just let the board try to tell
me I'm not part of the material now

that I am the top story on New York One.

Is it bad that this hits harder for me
than the verdict? Yes.

Glad you're sticking around, boss.

Oh, I'm like a barnacle.

They're going to have to scrape me off
if you want to pour Linda's spoon.

You're incredible.

that it's not Olympia. So happy, Edwin.

So happy. Get home safe.

Okay. Love you.

Heading home.

Olympia, my goodness, you could give an
old lady a heart attack.

Did you need me to go back to work?

Is it the Johnson case?

You are the Johnson case.

The pen is a recording device.

Julian, partner race, the divorce.

I just want honesty.

Done.

So, no more looking back?

Did you spy on me?

Because there was this pen in my office.
A recording device?

Olympia, I swear, on our children, that
was not me.

Then who put it there, Julian?

And I had to bring that fettuccine
operator all the way to your apartment

Queens.

Hey, Maddie.

Want some ice cream?

Why would I want ice cream?

Can I ask you a quick question?

Could I see the CCTV footage from
outside the courthouse?

But in return, there is something I need
from you.

I need you to trace this car's license
plate.

So, who the hell are you?

Madeline Matlock?
