- All right, you want to know?

620

First thing this morning,
Zane tells me

621

unless I sign Paxson, my name's
never going up on that wall.

Have you told Harvey

- What good would it do?

624

Harvey's the one who put me in
this goddamn situation.

628
00:21:50,260 --> 00:21:52,005
When Zane didn't want to do it,
I was ready to back off.

629
00:21:52,029 --> 00:21:53,828
- Then back off.
- And I do that,

630
00:21:53,864 --> 00:21:55,975
I might as well kiss my chances
at Name Partner good-bye,

631
00:21:55,999 --> 00:21:57,883
Alex, I don't think you're
giving Harvey enough credit.

632
00:21:57,884 --> 00:21:59,083
He said, and I quote:

633
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:00,918
"I'm sure as shit
not interested

634

in you second guessing me
on Robert Zane's behalf."

<i>Kobayashi Maru.</i>

What the hell does sushi
have to do with this?

638
00:22:09,729 --> 00:22:11,696
It's not sushi,
it's from "Star Trek,"

639
00:22:11,731 --> 00:22:14,966
and Harvey's been talking
about it for a hundred years.

640
00:22:15,001 --> 00:22:17,168
I always thought it was
bullshit, but maybe it's not.

walled into a no-win situation.

643

This one's yours,
and the way to prove yourself

644
00:22:25,178 --> 00:22:28,246
to both Harvey and Zane
is to find a way out anyway.

Well, thanks, Donna.

646
00:22:29,749 --> 00:22:30,760
And here I thought
going to Harvard

647

was the way to get ahead,
when really,

648

I should have just been
watching old "Star Trek"s.

Well, I didn't,
so unless the answer

650
00:22:36,689 --> 00:22:38,167
is in an episode
of "Cagney and Lacey"--

651
00:22:38,191 --> 00:22:39,769
You know what, Alex?
I'm trying to help you.

I'm not in the goddamn mood.

Okay, then let me
put it another way.

654

Unless you think you can
get your name on the wall

655

someplace else,
I suggest you stop worrying

about the problem, and start
worrying about the solution.

657

So, Mr. Larson, when did you
decide to file this lawsuit?

663
00:23:02,048 --> 00:23:03,681
About a week
after I found out

664
00:23:03,716 --> 00:23:05,583
hackers stole my information.

665
00:23:05,618 --> 00:23:08,452
So you were upset, and then,
you contacted a lawyer.

666
00:23:08,488 --> 00:23:10,032
Actually, my attorney
reached out to me.

667
00:23:10,056 --> 00:23:11,689
Oh, wasn't that convenient?

668
00:23:11,724 --> 00:23:13,591
Your Honor, soliciting
clients isn't a crime,

669
00:23:13,626 --> 00:23:15,104
and it's not relevant
to change of venue.

670
00:23:15,128 --> 00:23:16,861
But isn't it?
Mr. Larson, when your lawyer

671
00:23:16,896 --> 00:23:18,941
approached you, what was the
fee that you were quoted?

672
00:23:18,965 --> 00:23:20,865
Ten percent,
contingent on winning.

673
00:23:20,900 --> 00:23:22,600
And are you aware
that the normal fee

674
00:23:22,635 --> 00:23:24,869
for this type of case is
three times that?

675
00:23:24,904 --> 00:23:26,771
I'm not one
to say no to a bargain.

676
00:23:26,806 --> 00:23:28,584
You mean the bargain where
my client's biggest competitor

677
00:23:28,608 --> 00:23:29,919
was paying your lawyers
on the side?

where is this going?

I'll tell you
where it's going, Your Honor.

682
00:23:36,082 --> 00:23:37,882
It's going to
conspiracy charges

683
00:23:37,917 --> 00:23:40,117

out of business.

to be spending my time
on something you could have

916
00:33:25,383 --> 00:33:29,118
hired an accounting firm for,
I was busy working my ass off

917
00:33:29,154 --> 00:33:32,588
maximizing revenue per square
foot the old fashioned way.

918

- What are you talking about?

919
00:33:35,026 --> 00:33:37,171
I'm just saying that between
picking a fight with Harvey,

920
00:33:37,195 --> 00:33:38,239
taking a client away
from Louis,

921
00:33:38,263 --> 00:33:40,263
and whatever else
you've been up to,

922
00:33:40,298 --> 00:33:41,475
you didn't notice that
one of your star attorneys

923
00:33:41,499 --> 00:33:43,366
was thinking about leaving.

924
00:33:43,401 --> 00:33:45,434
And now, thanks to me,
he's going to stay.

925
00:33:45,470 --> 00:33:46,869
You're talking about Alex?

926
00:33:46,905 --> 00:33:49,539
Yes, of course
I'm talking about Alex.

927
00:33:49,574 --> 00:33:52,308
Then Donna, I appreciate
what you did.

928
00:33:52,343 --> 00:33:54,677
But if he left, he left.
So be it.

929
00:33:54,712 --> 00:33:57,280
Because if I'm
going to lead this firm,

930
00:33:57,315 --> 00:33:59,115
people need to
follow my orders.

931
00:33:59,150 --> 00:34:01,384
Maybe the problem isn't
with the orders, Robert,

932
00:34:01,419 --> 00:34:03,452
Maybe it's with the man
who's giving them.

933
00:34:03,488 --> 00:34:07,356
You may not want to hear this,
but I'm going to say it anyway.

934
00:34:07,392 --> 00:34:10,459
You think that the reason
Rand and Kaldor turned on you

935
00:34:10,495 --> 00:34:13,462
is because you had
a soft spot for us.

936
00:34:13,498 --> 00:34:17,333
I think it's because you didn't
have a soft spot for them.

937
00:34:17,368 --> 00:34:19,302
And if you treat us
the way you treated them,

938
00:34:19,337 --> 00:34:21,137
the same thing's
going to happen here.

939
00:34:21,172 --> 00:34:24,407
I can't just let everyone

It's not in me.

we need to be smacked in line,

you need to let us do

happened to me.

1068
00:39:51,373 --> 00:39:53,206
- Robert told you, didn't he?
- He did.

1069
00:39:53,241 --> 00:39:55,375
And when it happened,
he was there for me.

1070
00:39:55,410 --> 00:39:57,177
So now, I'm going
to be there for you.

1071
00:39:57,212 --> 00:39:58,890
I'm sorry, what do you mean
he was there for you?

1072
00:39:58,914 --> 00:40:00,547
That's not important.
What is important

1073
00:40:00,582 --> 00:40:03,016
is you're going to start
learning self-defense.

1074
00:40:03,051 --> 00:40:04,451
And you're going to start
right now.

1075
00:40:04,486 --> 00:40:06,453
I really appreciate
you coming by, okay?

1076
00:40:06,488 --> 00:40:08,521
But I'm going to go inside.

1077
00:40:08,557 --> 00:40:10,490
Tell me the truth.

1078
00:40:10,525 --> 00:40:12,303
When you saw me standing there,
and you couldn't make out

1079
00:40:12,327 --> 00:40:14,527
whether it was me or not,
you were scared, right?

1080
00:40:17,165 --> 00:40:18,998
I don't want to learn
self-defense.

1081
00:40:19,034 --> 00:40:21,367
Do me a favor.
Try to hit me.

1082
00:40:21,403 --> 00:40:24,804
- I'm not going to hit you.
- Try to hit me.

1083
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:26,206
Okay.

1084
00:40:26,241 --> 00:40:27,874
Ready?
Boop.

1085
00:40:27,909 --> 00:40:29,287
That's pretty crazy, right--
- Would you just

1086
00:40:29,311 --> 00:40:31,444
try to hit me?
- All right, fine.

1087
00:40:33,381 --> 00:40:35,548
All right, mother--

1088
00:40:35,584 --> 00:40:37,617
Oh, my God.

1089
00:40:37,652 --> 00:40:39,419
You could kill someone,
couldn't you?

1090
00:40:39,454 --> 00:40:42,956
Probably, but the point is,
they couldn't kill me.

1091
00:40:42,991 --> 00:40:46,559
Now, get up, it's time
for your first lesson.

1092
00:40:46,595 --> 00:40:49,662
First things first, you got to
be aware of your surroundings,

1093
00:40:49,698 --> 00:40:51,564
and you got to learn
how to stand.

You want to
