1 00:00:01,909 --> 00:00:05,230 Previously on L .A. Law. May have been a babe in the woods when I was thrown in 2 00:00:05,230 --> 00:00:08,610 here, but when I'm released, watch out. I will not go quietly. 3 00:00:08,930 --> 00:00:10,370 Of course, until you've been in the inside. 4 00:00:10,650 --> 00:00:11,650 You can't understand. 5 00:00:12,130 --> 00:00:13,850 What saw you through the darkest moment? 6 00:00:14,410 --> 00:00:15,410 Soap and a rope. 7 00:00:20,130 --> 00:00:21,130 Thank you. 8 00:00:21,710 --> 00:00:23,750 It's just back issue of the journal. 9 00:00:24,850 --> 00:00:26,590 You mean those flowers weren't from you? 10 00:00:27,010 --> 00:00:28,910 No. Oh, God, I don't... 11 00:00:29,700 --> 00:00:32,280 Don't be... No, I know. I shouldn't have... Please. 12 00:00:37,780 --> 00:00:39,780 Do you want a raise? I can speak with Douglas. 13 00:00:40,020 --> 00:00:42,100 Arnie, I want to have a baby. 14 00:00:43,580 --> 00:00:44,600 Rox, I don't know. 15 00:00:45,620 --> 00:00:47,340 I mean... Not with you? 16 00:00:48,140 --> 00:00:49,160 He's gonna get hit. 17 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:52,920 Stuart! 18 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:54,360 Be careful! 19 00:00:59,340 --> 00:01:03,360 Ann, he's mine. No, Stuart. Ann, I saved him all by myself. 20 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,340 Stuart, please. We'll talk about it when we get home. No, not without Lincoln. 21 00:01:07,420 --> 00:01:08,420 He'll be fine. 22 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,940 No! Stuart, we're going home now. I'm not going home! I'm not going home! I'm 23 00:01:12,940 --> 00:01:13,940 not going home! I'm not going home! 24 00:01:14,060 --> 00:01:15,060 Stuart! 25 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:20,440 Morning, 26 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,680 Stuart. How's it going with Lincoln? 27 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,320 Not so good. Ann's allergic. 28 00:01:28,979 --> 00:01:32,000 Matty's afraid I'm out of luck. I'm going to have to give him back. Give him 29 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,120 back? To do it? He's your dog. 30 00:01:35,660 --> 00:01:36,658 Was my dog. 31 00:01:36,660 --> 00:01:39,660 Oh, you're the one who found Lincoln and brought him to the office. Yeah, but 32 00:01:39,660 --> 00:01:40,960 you brought him to my house. 33 00:01:41,620 --> 00:01:42,660 Let's not get contentious. 34 00:01:43,260 --> 00:01:44,780 Contentious? I was trying to be nice. 35 00:01:45,300 --> 00:01:47,160 Get off there! 36 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:48,580 Oh, you see? See how good he listens? 37 00:01:48,940 --> 00:01:51,280 That's not the point. I don't care if he's Ren Tintin. 38 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:57,080 Lincoln! See? What a good dog. Stuart, I'm not buying. 39 00:01:57,740 --> 00:01:58,740 So stop selling it. 40 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,700 The last thing I need in my life right now is a dog. 41 00:02:02,420 --> 00:02:03,420 Oh, no. 42 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,400 Oh, damn it! Lincoln! 43 00:04:42,220 --> 00:04:45,300 He may not look it, but he's gonna make a great watchdog. You two aren't 44 00:04:45,300 --> 00:04:48,360 listening. Shall we get started? Jonathan, I'm afraid that keeping 45 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,820 out of the question. He's gonna make a constant companion for you. People, 46 00:04:51,940 --> 00:04:53,340 please, settle this later. 47 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:58,560 First, some internal business. After careful consideration, Roxanne has 48 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,060 to step down as office manager. 49 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:01,380 What? Are you leaving? 50 00:05:01,620 --> 00:05:08,600 No. No, it's just that, um... Oh, well, my life, uh... What I'm trying to 51 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,120 say... This was a personal decision for Roxanne, the... 52 00:05:11,390 --> 00:05:13,390 nature of which I'm not at liberty to discuss. 53 00:05:13,950 --> 00:05:16,410 Suffice it to say, she's working for me again. 54 00:05:16,630 --> 00:05:19,630 A remarkable feat, considering not long ago you two were falling through the 55 00:05:19,630 --> 00:05:20,630 ceiling together. 56 00:05:20,790 --> 00:05:22,550 I'm going to miss working for you, Douglas. 57 00:05:23,090 --> 00:05:24,910 On to the business that pays the bills. 58 00:05:25,150 --> 00:05:29,350 Calvin versus Susan Bidwell in the California Coalition for the Deaf. I'm a 59 00:05:29,350 --> 00:05:31,550 member of the board of the coalition, as some of you know. 60 00:05:31,770 --> 00:05:37,070 Suzanne Bidwell is president and a friend. Coalition policy favors hiring 61 00:05:37,070 --> 00:05:38,470 promoting deaf employees. 62 00:05:39,289 --> 00:05:43,870 I'm defending against an anti -discrimination suit, pro bono. Hardly 63 00:05:43,870 --> 00:05:47,510 unreasonable, given the nature of the group. Yes. Well, one hearing employee, 64 00:05:47,850 --> 00:05:50,070 denied advancement, has taken exception. 65 00:05:50,410 --> 00:05:51,850 Must feel good going back to court. 66 00:05:52,950 --> 00:05:56,910 I'll let you know. As much as it pains me to lose billable hours, Leland, I 67 00:05:56,910 --> 00:05:57,910 applaud your commitment. 68 00:05:58,390 --> 00:06:01,930 Next, Elaine versus Flickr, and you thought you'd never practice 69 00:06:01,930 --> 00:06:06,090 law? Handling Ben Flickr's daughter's divorce isn't what I had in mind. Arnie, 70 00:06:06,250 --> 00:06:08,110 the Ben Flickr. 71 00:06:08,330 --> 00:06:09,199 Who's that? 72 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:10,200 Oh, you must remember. 73 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:11,700 Six guns, five bullets. 74 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:13,880 Slow down, sundown. 75 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,560 I don't remember. I cry every time I see Lonely Spurs and Saddles. Was he an 76 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,520 actor? Every Sunday, my father would take me to Nate and Al's. There was 77 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,120 dressed to the nines, holding court, enjoying his whitefish, even during the 78 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,780 days of the Hollywood blacklist. The director? Flickr really stood up to Joe 79 00:06:26,780 --> 00:06:30,800 McCarthy? Well, actually, he sang like a canary, but he was right at the center. 80 00:06:30,980 --> 00:06:32,460 Still is, running Worldwide Studios. 81 00:06:32,860 --> 00:06:36,300 Will somebody please tell me who the hell has been Flickr? 82 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:39,540 He's a movie producer. 83 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:41,940 Old time. Very successful. 84 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,140 Although some people think his star is fading. 85 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:46,460 Thank you very much. 86 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:53,120 You can all relax. I just wanted an answer. I'm not going to throw a chair 87 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,120 through the window or anything. 88 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:56,480 Move along, Douglas. 89 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:02,560 Tesla versus Belkin Pharmaceuticals. He was highly recommended. 90 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,480 I can't wait to meet him. 91 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:07,240 Okay, bye. 92 00:07:10,159 --> 00:07:11,159 Well? Well? 93 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:12,360 What was that about? 94 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:13,760 My new hairdresser. 95 00:07:14,060 --> 00:07:18,260 I'm getting a handnet. Oh, I thought it was of seminal importance. 96 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,780 Finding someone to bother your child. 97 00:07:26,020 --> 00:07:32,180 Arnie, three things. First, nobody around here is supposed to know about 98 00:07:32,180 --> 00:07:33,119 except you. 99 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,940 What, wasn't I discreet in the staff meeting? Second, you're acting like some 100 00:07:35,940 --> 00:07:37,800 misguided mother -in -law. 101 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,400 Are you implying that I'm nosy? And third, you're going to be late for your 102 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,040 lunch with Flickr. On my way. 103 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,620 Do you want me to get you the IQs of every bachelor in the California bar? 104 00:07:47,100 --> 00:07:51,260 Barney. Rox, I just want what's best for you. I know, but this is a big 105 00:07:51,260 --> 00:07:53,360 decision. I'm going to have to make it myself. 106 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,500 You'll tell me when you pick the guy, right? 107 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,000 Oh. 108 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,160 I understand. I really do. You must follow your own internal impulses. 109 00:08:03,220 --> 00:08:04,300 Feng Liu, Rox. 110 00:08:05,420 --> 00:08:06,420 Feng Liu, too. 111 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:07,760 It means blow with the wind. 112 00:08:08,190 --> 00:08:09,190 You better flow yourself. 113 00:08:09,350 --> 00:08:11,390 Ben Flicker doesn't like to be kept waiting. 114 00:08:12,390 --> 00:08:15,610 How do I look? Like a high -powered entertainment lawyer. 115 00:08:15,950 --> 00:08:16,950 In your lips. 116 00:08:18,270 --> 00:08:19,270 Good morning. 117 00:08:20,030 --> 00:08:24,590 When I plug this in, the thing just went kaflooey. You mean kablooey. 118 00:08:24,930 --> 00:08:27,750 Benny, just find me another cassette recorder as soon as you can. 119 00:08:28,050 --> 00:08:32,429 Yes, sir. I'll load one today. I'm ready to write my book. I intend to stripe 120 00:08:32,429 --> 00:08:33,429 while the iron is hot. 121 00:08:34,450 --> 00:08:36,250 Okay. Lincoln's a great dog. 122 00:08:37,580 --> 00:08:42,340 Not the right time. Daniel, Daniel, every kid needs a stray dog. Not until 123 00:08:42,340 --> 00:08:44,660 Lucy's potty trained. It goes for Lincoln, too. 124 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,220 Some paper, some kibble. How hard can it be? You're going to find out. 125 00:08:49,100 --> 00:08:50,340 I'll take her, Mr. Morales. 126 00:08:50,660 --> 00:08:51,660 Here you go. 127 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,280 We'll grab her bottle. 128 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:01,840 Fresh pot? 129 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:02,920 I put it myself. 130 00:09:12,619 --> 00:09:16,280 Listen, about the other night when you kissed me. You kissed me? 131 00:09:17,660 --> 00:09:18,660 Yeah. 132 00:09:19,220 --> 00:09:22,780 I just want to let you know. Look, it didn't mean a thing. 133 00:09:42,650 --> 00:09:43,650 Good, F. 134 00:09:47,950 --> 00:09:50,810 Name? Becker, Arnold Becker. Here to see? 135 00:09:51,030 --> 00:09:51,849 Ben Flicker. 136 00:09:51,850 --> 00:09:52,850 Ever heard of him? 137 00:09:54,290 --> 00:09:55,790 You must be very important. 138 00:09:56,050 --> 00:09:59,050 You probably know that Mr. Flicker hates to be kept waiting. 139 00:09:59,250 --> 00:10:00,250 Yes, I do. 140 00:10:02,910 --> 00:10:07,350 Gee, don't seem to have your drive on. Come on, you gotta... Pull over there 141 00:10:07,350 --> 00:10:08,350 we'll call Mr. 142 00:10:08,430 --> 00:10:10,570 Flicker's assistant and see what she can do. Fine. 143 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,780 I've spoken to Rita on the phone dozens of times. 144 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:14,819 Me too. 145 00:10:14,820 --> 00:10:15,820 I'm her son. 146 00:10:16,560 --> 00:10:19,520 I was 147 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:27,580 Suzanne's 148 00:10:27,580 --> 00:10:31,460 interpreter when the California Coalition for the Deaf was founded 12 149 00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:32,680 What do you do today? 150 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:34,980 I'm fundraising coordinator for the coalition. 151 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:36,259 You like your job? 152 00:10:36,260 --> 00:10:40,240 I did. Until Suzanne created a vice presidential position above me. 153 00:10:40,730 --> 00:10:43,630 and hired someone less qualified to fill the spot. 154 00:10:43,930 --> 00:10:47,070 You know why Ms. Bidwell hired this person and not you? 155 00:10:47,290 --> 00:10:49,730 Yes. She said, because he's deaf. 156 00:10:49,950 --> 00:10:54,210 Were you surprised that this applicant received preferential treatment? Not 157 00:10:54,210 --> 00:10:59,090 really. About two years ago, Suzanne began instituting policies favoring deaf 158 00:10:59,090 --> 00:11:02,770 employees. She developed a more separatist attitude. 159 00:11:03,150 --> 00:11:06,690 And you feel you've suffered because of this? Absolutely. According to Suzanne, 160 00:11:06,750 --> 00:11:09,610 I'm not executive material because I have two good ears. 161 00:11:10,190 --> 00:11:14,630 If her employment decisions were based on merit, I'd have the job I deserve. 162 00:11:14,890 --> 00:11:16,110 Thank you. Nothing further. 163 00:11:18,210 --> 00:11:24,030 Mr. Calvin, doesn't the job to which you aspired require public appearances, 164 00:11:24,410 --> 00:11:28,250 face -to -face meetings with potential donors in the non -hearing constituency? 165 00:11:28,790 --> 00:11:33,390 Yes, in part. So image is an important aspect of that job. 166 00:11:33,660 --> 00:11:37,520 Suzanne presents a formidable image as a capable deaf person. There's no need 167 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,840 for all of her executives to be deaf as well. Besides, at least half the job is 168 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,400 administrative. Making decisions on deaf issues? 169 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:49,400 Yes. Do you believe you have a full appreciation and awareness of what it's 170 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:50,540 to be unable to hear? 171 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,300 I've spent most of my life working with the deaf or hearing impaired. 172 00:11:54,540 --> 00:11:56,120 My younger brother is deaf. 173 00:11:57,220 --> 00:12:01,680 I'd say my level of awareness... is very high. Would you agree that a deaf 174 00:12:01,680 --> 00:12:03,960 person has an even higher level of awareness? 175 00:12:04,180 --> 00:12:05,920 Of what it's like to be unable to hear? Sure. 176 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,460 But I don't... Sir, earlier you mentioned that you and Miss Bidwell 177 00:12:09,460 --> 00:12:13,880 on how the deaf and hearing community should interface, that she had adopted a 178 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,100 more separatist attitude. 179 00:12:15,500 --> 00:12:18,800 Suzanne's militant posture has turned off a lot of people. Which, my 180 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,900 understanding, since Miss Bidwell became more outspoken, donations have risen 181 00:12:22,900 --> 00:12:26,200 nearly 40%. That's due as much to my efforts as hers. 182 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,160 So, you get all the credit. 183 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:34,100 And Suzanne Bidwell gets only the blame. I'm the one being wronged, not her. 184 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,300 That's an interesting perspective, Mr. Calvin. 185 00:12:36,900 --> 00:12:37,900 That's all, Your Honor. 186 00:12:41,020 --> 00:12:43,120 I have you right here, table for three.

That's fine. 241 00:15:40,639 --> 00:15:44,460 Since Francine supported Brett, he's entitled to continued support in the 242 00:15:44,460 --> 00:15:45,460 to which he's become accustomed. 243 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,400 Boy.

Wouldn't you agree that your separatist approach has alienated 379 00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:58,900 members of your own coalition? 380 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:03,950 No. Well, is it true that Tom Calvin... refused to go along with your 381 00:24:03,950 --> 00:24:05,830 increasingly radical and separatist agenda. 382 00:24:06,270 --> 00:24:10,230 Yes. And your reason for refusing to promote him is, in fact, because you two 383 00:24:10,230 --> 00:24:14,850 often disagreed. My hiring policies are in the best interest of the coalition. 384 00:24:15,210 --> 00:24:18,610 I see. And were you acting in the best interest of the coalition when you 385 00:24:18,610 --> 00:24:21,310 misallocated funds for your political agenda? Objection! 386 00:24:21,690 --> 00:24:25,790 Assuming facts not in evidence, irrelevant, prejudicial. We have 387 00:24:25,790 --> 00:24:28,850 Honor, showing Ms. Bidwell's financial abuses are... Your Honor, objection! 388 00:24:29,310 --> 00:24:30,450 Counsel my chambers. 389 00:24:36,810 --> 00:24:40,610 To pull that stunt in front of a jury is more than prejudicial. It's outrageous. 390 00:24:40,990 --> 00:24:42,750 Mr. McKenzie, I'll take it from here. 391 00:24:43,570 --> 00:24:48,330 Mr. Moran, are you under the delusion that this is a criminal fraud trial? 392 00:24:48,530 --> 00:24:50,970 Your Honor, I am merely trying to demonstrate that Miss Bidwell is out of 393 00:24:50,970 --> 00:24:53,910 control and that her bias against my client is one more example. 394 00:24:54,170 --> 00:24:56,090 You have a story to tell, Mr. Calvin, briefly? 395 00:24:57,450 --> 00:25:01,690 I was present at a meeting between Suzanne and a California Coalition for 396 00:25:01,690 --> 00:25:05,550 Deaf accountant at which she... Your Honor. 397 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,860 He was my interpreter, and he's ethically bound to keep that 398 00:25:09,860 --> 00:25:15,260 private. Professional ethics are one thing, but there's no law against Mr. 399 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,860 Calvin disclosing this information if he so chooses. 400 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:23,540 Suzanne transferred $70 ,000 of Coalition money into a personal expense 401 00:25:23,820 --> 00:25:26,740 And you've waited all this time to reveal this information? 402 00:25:27,060 --> 00:25:29,680 I didn't want to hurt the Coalition or Suzanne. 403 00:25:30,510 --> 00:25:31,930 You've left me no choice. 404 00:25:32,190 --> 00:25:33,530 Where is this damning evidence? 405 00:25:33,870 --> 00:25:37,290 We have no documentation as yet, Your Honor. Forget it. This entire line of 406 00:25:37,290 --> 00:25:40,930 questioning is irrelevant and prejudicial. Now, if you think a crime 407 00:25:40,930 --> 00:25:41,930 committed, file charges. 408 00:25:42,170 --> 00:25:43,850 But I'm not opening that bag of snakes. 409 00:25:44,150 --> 00:25:48,150 Your Honor, the fact that this was raised before the jury requires I 410 00:25:48,150 --> 00:25:50,730 mistrial. Denied. We're not starting that drill over. 411 00:25:50,970 --> 00:25:52,830 I'll instruct the jury to disregard. 412 00:25:53,170 --> 00:25:54,850 We'll recess until tomorrow. That's it. 413 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,160 I didn't steal any money you have to believe me 414 00:26:28,300 --> 00:26:31,000 Tom Calvin leveled a serious charge against you. 415 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:39,080 Before we go into court, as your lawyer and your friend, I need to ask, is there 416 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:40,080 anything to it? 417 00:26:42,300 --> 00:26:44,780 It's inadmissible, so what difference does it make? 418 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:49,840 If prosecuted, embezzlement could change your life considerably. Not to mention 419 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,380 the impact this revelation would have on the coalition. 420 00:26:56,010 --> 00:26:58,990 The money was used to lobby against child abuse. 421 00:26:59,370 --> 00:27:00,370 Oh, Suzanne. 422 00:27:00,610 --> 00:27:03,690 You asked the board for those funds. We voted you down. 423 00:27:03,930 --> 00:27:04,930 What does the board know? 424 00:27:05,970 --> 00:27:11,110 Many hearing parents of deaf children never bothered to learn sign language. 425 00:27:11,350 --> 00:27:14,530 They robbed their children of the right to communicate. 426 00:27:15,190 --> 00:27:16,190 That's abusive. 427 00:27:16,330 --> 00:27:21,330 You run a non -profit organization. You cannot use its funds to finance your own 428 00:27:21,330 --> 00:27:24,610 agenda. Who are you to tell me how to run the coalition? 429 00:27:26,220 --> 00:27:29,720 You still haven't bothered learning how to sign. 430 00:27:30,220 --> 00:27:34,420 I'm sorry if I don't fit your image of the ideal deaf woman. 431 00:27:36,140 --> 00:27:40,960 Brave, deferential, and nobly accepting her lot. Being deaf entitles you to turn 432 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:42,040 your back on your friends? 433 00:27:42,420 --> 00:27:43,420 To lie? 434 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:48,900 Steal? You'll never understand. If Tom Pelvin goes public with his accusations, 435 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:53,400 your entire life's work will be in jeopardy. I suggest we seek an 436 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,300 with him, which would include... 437 00:27:55,770 --> 00:27:57,290 You're resigning from the coalition. 438 00:27:58,710 --> 00:27:59,710 Like hell. 439 00:28:00,550 --> 00:28:02,590 That's implying that I've done something wrong. 440 00:28:02,810 --> 00:28:06,770 As a coalition board member, I have a duty to disclose knowledge of financial 441 00:28:06,770 --> 00:28:09,950 impropriety.
