Previously on Damages.

Meet my granddaughter.

Michael had a chance to be a
father, and he ran away from it.

It's been three years.
Track Michael down.

I'm looking to hire
a private investigator.

Who's this? My son.

I am the founder and
CEO of the High Star Security Corporation.

What is it with
you and High Star?

They're a private army, Killing for
a profit. Making money off of death.

Stay away from High Star.

Dozens of lawyers have tried
to build a case against them,

and it's never worked.

I have a friend.
He may know some things.

Did something
happen to you over there,

while you were
working for Erickson?

I led a unit

for a mission
we should have never been on.

You don't go near Sanchez,
understood?

If anyone finds out
about that last mission...

That's why I sent him
to a psychiatrist.

Shrink's job to get
the truth out of the boy,

and the truth just
isn't our friend.

Something happened
on that last mission,

and High Star is covering it up.

The men who died, you knew them.

These were your men.

High Star's over there.

They're breaking the law
for profit,

and they're accountable
to no one.

What would you need me to do?

♪ When I am through with you ♪

Is that important?

I assume that's important.

I'm trying a case against the world's
largest pharmaceutical company.

I mean, it could mean
hundreds of millions

of dollars for my client, so...

you tell me.

Sounds important.

Mmm-hmm.

Look, you're in here, so
you might as well talk to me.

Okay. Let's talk.

Tell me about you.

Was being a therapist
always your dream,

or was medical school
just too tough?

We've had this discussion.
The therapy is not about me.

We need to discuss
how you ended up here,

and then I have to
sign off on your progress.

Powerful feeling, isn't it?

Do you like that?

On your personal form, you
wrote that you have a son.

Maybe we should talk about him.

He's my only child.

He ran away three
years ago and left me

with his baby daughter
to take care of.

I recently hired somebody
to track him down.

Seems to be a lot
in there to discuss.

There isn't.

Have you had contact with...

Michael.

Michael?

No, I haven't.

I'm not holding my breath.

Are you still taking care
of your granddaughter?

Yes. But I can't find
a nanny. That's my problem.

Oh, I'm afraid
our session's over.

How many more of these
do we have?

Well, this is
our second meeting,

and eight more sessions
are required.

But next time we have to talk about
why you got here in the first place.

I can't wait.

Pleasure.

Sanchez.

Sanchez. Sanchez.

Lowry! Come on,
motherfucker, breathe!

Jay Rayburn,
Robert Franks, Thomas Lowry,

all killed while
working for High Star.

High Star conducted
an illegal mission

at the order of company CEO
Howard Erickson.

During the execution of this
mission, these men lost their lives.

You're proposing that we file a
wrongful death suit against High Star?

Yes, sir.

This is Jessica Lowry,
Thomas Lowry's widow.

She represents
the men's families,

all of whom are willing
to be plaintiffs in the suit.

Who's this fourth man?

Chris Sanchez. He
was in charge of the unit.

Mr. Sanchez has since
resigned from High Star,

and he's willing to give eyewitness
testimony against the company.

What does he say
happened on the mission?

Understandably,
Mr. Sanchez is concerned

about the potential
consequences of testifying,

so before he gives any details,

he wants to be certain that
the firm will support the case.

How many other cases have
been brought against High Star?

Almost 60, and they've
all been dismissed.

But none of them
have had my witness.

This is
a very compelling case, Ellen.

Are you sure Mr. Sanchez
will cooperate?

Yes. He's assured me he will.

Good girl.

Good girl.

It was buzzing. ID says "Ellen."

Hey, Chris,
just calling to see how you're doing.

I pitched the case
to the partners.

So we should get
an answer back soon.

Call me back, okay?

Who's Ellen?

No one. Friend from high school.

Tire was caused by a gas explosion,

which they believe
to have originated

in the office of an Upper
West Side psychiatrist,

Dr Raul Barrera.

The 52-year-old victim was
pronounced dead at the scene.

Three fire-fighters
also suffered

minor injuries
battling the blaze.

An investigation into the
cause of the explosion continues.

Reporting live on the Upper West
Side, Tara Lynn Wagner, New York 1.

Are you okay?
Where are you going?

It was the same doctor
I went to.

You think someone
is targeting you?

I don't know, but I had an
appointment scheduled this morning.

You need anything, Ellen?
I can put on a pot of coffee.

I'm fine. Thank you, Kevin.

Who referred you to this doctor?

A friend. AC.

Does he work for High Star?
Yeah.

But you don't understand.

AC trained me, he saved my
life, like, a half a dozen times.

The guy's like a brother to me.

Does he know that you've
been talking to a lawyer?

No. Does anyone at High Star

know that we've been in contact?

No, I've told no one.

Chris.

It's okay.

I need you to keep to yourself
for a little while.

Can you do that?

I don't want you talking to
anyone from the company.

Whatever you say.

I'm also gonna hire
private security for you.

I don't need that.

Just to make sure that...

What, so I could have more guys
with guns hanging around me?

I can take care of myself, okay?

I can take care
of my fuckin' self.

Just calm down.

I don't want anyone to know

that you've been
talking to a lawyer.

So we shouldn't be in contact

until I have official word
from my firm

and we're ready to file a case.

Fine.

Once I have the resources,
we'll figure out

this explosion and
exactly what is going on.

Chris?

Are you still
willing to testify?

If it will help
my guys' families.

That's what this is all about.

Come on, Ghwarri. Come on, girl.

That's great.
Thank you. Thank you, Sean.

Okay, well, I'll see you
back at the office.

Yeah. Okay. Okay, bye.

Sorry I'm late. I had therapy.

Therapy? Could I have
a cup of tea, please?

Thank you.

I thought you didn't
believe in therapy.

Yeah, well, this
is court-ordered.

It's all Perry's fault.

Your doorman?

I was late for a meeting.

I was in the lobby waiting for
him to open the door for me,

and he just stood there, rambling
on about the goddamn weather.

I pushed past him and
the door hit him in the face.

I accidentally broke his nose.

Accidentally.

The prick pressed charges.

The judge let me off
provided I go to therapy.

Anyway, listen,
I need a new nanny.

Still? Where's Catherine?

In the office with my assistant.

Do you know of anyone?

I mean, you must have
friends who have kids.

In Jersey, sure.

But none of them
can afford nannies.

Oh, God.

I'll be in your shoes
tomorrow night,

baby-sitting my niece when my
sister goes Christmas shopping.

Well, do you want
to get them together?

Like a play-date?

I mean, it would give me a break

and burn off some of
Catherine's energy.

Yeah, could be good.

Maybe.

Oh, thank you.

So, I pitched the High Star
case to the firm yesterday.

You didn't take my advice.

Have you convinced your
friend to be a witness?

Yeah.

Although it may have
made him into a target.

Do the people at High Star
know that he's talking to you?

He says no, but the explosion
uptown may have been meant for him.

Your firm is never gonna
let you try this case, Ellen.

Why do you say that?

Because ever since Hollis Nye
retired, they have no backbone.

Defendants like this
terrify them.

You'll see. They'll fold.

Well, they already said yes.

Really?

Got the call before you came.

Well, good for you.
I stand corrected.

And here I was
talking about nannies.

I'm taking my witness's
statement in the morning.

This is going to be
a big step for you, Ellen.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

I should run. I'm sorry.

I'll take care of this.
Don't worry.

So you'll think
about the play-date?

I will. Thanks for the coffee.

What the fuck were you thinking?

I've sent dozens of my men
to that shrink. I trusted him!

I told you not to send
Sanchez to a psychiatrist.

So you blast his office!

First of all, I didn't do
anything to that poor doctor.

I saw it on the news, just like
everybody else. Damn shame.

Con Ed had the place
all wired wrong.

You wipe that fuckin'
smirk off your face.

I followed your wishes 100%.

You told me to stay away
from Sanchez, and I did.

This stops right here,
right now, you hear me?

Nobody else gets hurt,
do you understand?

I couldn't agree with you more,

but that lawyer, Ellen Parsons,

we need to find a way to
keep Sanchez away from her.

What are you suggesting?

Well, we could pay him,
I suppose.

He's already
turned down a promotion.

Or threaten him.

He's one of my top employees.

Look, as long as
he's in this country,

there's no guarantees
of us being protected.

Now, the best move you could
make is to redeploy him.

The kid's damaged goods. I
can't send him back to a war zone.

I'm all ears.
You got a better idea?

Yeah?

Sanchez.

Mr. Erickson.

Mind if I step inside?

No, sir. Come on in.

I'm sorry, I'm just surprised
to see you here, sir.

I know. I wanted to
talk to you face-to-face.

AC told me you've been
going through a tough time.

Yes, sir. I guess I have.

And then there's
this explosion uptown.

Can I get you a beer
or something, sir?

Sure, why not?

Beer wouldn't do me wrong
right about now.

Thank you.

I'm very concerned
about this whole thing.

AC got Dr Barrera's
name from me.

The doctor was
an old friend of mine.

News said it was a gas leak.

I talked to several guys I know at
the city's anti-terrorism task force.

They investigate these things.

They're certain
it was a faulty valve.

Listen, son...

I'm not sure
I believe it myself.

I'm afraid someone's targeting
the company somehow.

We got a lot of enemies.

I thought someone
was maybe targeting me.

Who would do that?

I don't know, sir.

But that last mission...

Yeah.

That was rough.

Look, Chris...

Sometimes we come home,
our trauma clouds our heads.

We start seeing
the enemy everywhere.

But I can tell you this, no one at
High Star questions your loyalty.

Well, I know, sir.

I'm sorry if I implied...

We're here to protect you.

I heard the families of my men
got nothing from the company.

We're not the military.

Those men signed
the same contract as you.

There's no provision
for death pay.

Listen...

I know you turned down my
offer a couple months back.

AC told me
your mother's been sick.

So if you're
having money troubles,

I'd be happy to put that
offer back on the table.

You want me to redeploy?

Only if it would help.

I can always use a man like you.

I'd be no good to you right now.

I really need to see a doctor.

I understand. And if
you change your mind...

I'm not going back, sir.

All right.
I hear you loud and clear.

Thanks for the beer.

We're a family, Sanchez. We've
got your back. You hear me?

Thank you, sir.

Are you gonna be a good girl
at the office today?

Okay.

These came for you. I
think they're baby supplies.

Thank you, Perry.

Are you feeling
any better today?

I'm not.

I think the weather
aggravates my injury.

Well, any day
you'll be back to normal.

Maybe. Maybe not.

Call Jim Girotto. I want to
move the deposition again.

Got it.

And, you'll continue
to take care of Catherine

in the office
until I can find help.

You'll be bringing her
to work every day?

Yes.

So make sure that she
doesn't catch her little hand

in a stapler or something.

And call someone. I want
the whole office child-proofed.

Okay. Mr. Huntley's
waiting for you.

Send him in.

I ran Michael's photo and personal
information through the system.

And no hospital or morgue
had any John Does

that matched his description.

Of course not, Mr. Huntley.
Michael isn't dead.

He's running from
his responsibilities.

Right.

Oh, and also, he's not part of the
prison system. I checked that out.

How about money?

Well, he...

I think two years ago...

Two, yeah, two years ago, he
withdrew $500 from an ATM uptown

and that seems to be his
last financial transaction.

He's never used
his credit cards?

No, there's no record of that.

Oh, and, about your ex-husband.

Is there any chance that Mr. Grey
may have been helping your son out?

I've spoken to Phil.
Michael hasn't contacted him.

Well, he never contacted
Jill Burnham, either.

I guess you forgot
to mention her.

There's no reason to.

Right, she's just
the mother of his child.

Not legally.
I made sure of that.

Right, so you said that the last time
you saw Michael was three years ago.

Now that's right around the
time of your car accident, right?

Yes.

It's interesting. You
know, the timing. It's just...

What's next, Mr. Huntley?

Oh, I'd like to
talk to his peers.

I'll need a list of his friends

and any people that
he socialised with.

I'm only aware of a few.

He was very secretive
about his private life.

Well, we'll start
with the ones you know,

and maybe that will
lead us to some secrets.

I'll get you a list.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Ellen. Hey, babe.

Where you headed?
Picking up Chris.

Bringing him in to
take his statement.

Ellen, wait.

What's that look on your face?

Sorry, I hate to tell you this.

What?

You said yes. I told my
witness we have a case.

We reconsidered.

Why are you turning this down?

The inordinate cost in
a case of this nature,

both in terms of
time and resources,

is not in the best
interest of the firm.

You're scared.
You're afraid of High Star.

Ms. Parsons, I think you're
mistaking naivete for courage.

Nye, Everett has been around
for, what? Over 100 years.

Thousands of clients
and employees.

We're not going to risk getting
sucked into some legal black hole

that could put the very
existence of this firm in jeopardy.

Hollis Nye would
have backed me on this.

Mr. Nye isn't here anymore.

Sometimes the better part
of valour is to cover your ass

and survive to
fight another day.

That's not valour, sir.
That's chicken-shit.

Ellen, hey. Hey, Chris.

Listen, there's been
a change of plans.

We're not going to be
taking your statement today.

Why not?

I just need a little more time
on my end to figure things out.

Procedural stuff.

Okay. Okay.

How are you doing?

I'm fine.

Are you sure you don't want
me to look into security for you?

Yeah, no, I'm good. So,
we'll talk soon, I guess.

Yeah. Absolutely.
Hang in there, okay?

What are you doing?

You didn't tell him.

I'm not giving up.

There's no case.

Maybe I'll try it on my own.

How? You have no resources.

Chris has put himself
out there for me.

I can't just leave him dangling.

I'm not sure you have a choice.

There's a way to try this case,

I just haven't
figured it out yet.

Ellen, if you really
want to do this...

Yeah?

I hate to mention it,
but what about Patty?

What about her?

You haven't thought about it?

Taking the case to her?

It's an option.
No. Not an option.

I would never ask her for help.

Maybe if she offered,

but I don't want to owe
that woman anything. Ever.

Yo.

Thanks for coming.

I don't like to be too far
from my place these days.

What's going on?

Your boss came to see me.

Yeah, I know.

So you spoke with him.

That shit with Dr Barrera
hit him hard.

He wanted to see you,
so I gave him your address.

I hope that's okay.

Yeah, sure.

Could I ask you something?

Of course.

I know you're tight
with Erickson.

Why is he so worried about me?

What do you mean?

Is he afraid I'm going to
talk about the mission?

Fuck, no.
I told him you're solid.

He's not afraid of you, Chris,
he's worried about your health.

All right. Thanks, I just
wanted to hear it from you.

Hey. Want to grab a bite to eat?

There's a good Chinese
joint up the block.

Let's do it.
Let me just get Ghwarri.

Yeah, how is she? She's good.

Fuck! Get down.

Get down! Get down!

Did you see where it came from?

Across the street, fifth floor.

Fuck!

Fucking foreign cigarettes.

Check it out.

Is someone clocking you, bro?

Who the fuck would
be coming after you?

Kalashnikov.

I'm still kind of in shock.

I can't believe they
turned down the case.

Trust me, they never
even considered it.

Firms don't practice law,
they calculate risk.

I mean, you see it everywhere.

No one has the stomach
for a case like that.

Must have been difficult
news for your witness.

I didn't tell him yet.

I thought I might
try the case on my own.

You can't.

I know, I know.
I'm fooling myself.

I can't drag Chris through
the fire without any resources.

And what would you do if
you could find the resources?

I'd try the case.

You're right.
It's not going to happen.

Finding resources like that
is practically impossible.

Looks like
you've hit a dead end.

Catherine! Spit that out.
Right now.

That's not for eating.

Good girl.

Why would a haji be
targeting you in New Jersey?

Maybe some kind of
blowback from the mission.

What do you mean? Fuck, man,

we didn't exactly make friends
over there. We killed Afghanis.

Maybe it's coming back
to bite me in the ass.

Chris, we gotta stay calm.

I want to talk with Erickson.

Come with me back
to the compound.

You'll be safe there.
I can't. I gotta go home.

No, you can't.

All my gear's there. My dog.

Think about it.
You're being targeted.

Some sniper with a fucking
Kalashnikov knows your routine.

You think
they're waiting for me?

'Cause I'd love to meet 'em.

You're not going anywhere.

You're not in the right
frame of mind, Chris.

I don't work for High Star
any more!

I don't have to take
fucking orders from you, AC!

Who are you?

You'll never know.

Why don't you indulge me
for a minute?

Is that why we're here,
to indulge you?

No, we're here so
you don't end up

with a felony battery
on your record.

Go on.

Why don't you try answering
a few questions honestly?

Who knows? If you cooperate,
maybe we can cut the session short.

Ask your questions.

Who do you call
when you're sick?

I don't get sick.

But if you did,

if you wake up feeling
violently ill, who would you call?

911.

Your husband's remarried,
you don't speak to your son,

so in whom do you confide?

My dog.

Look, we can sit here and
punch the clock for months,

but it gets a little boring,
don't you think?

Very boring.

It's funny.

Yeah?

There's a woman
who used to work for me.

That you confide in?

No, no,
I'm not talking about that.

This woman wants to
try a case right now,

and she needs my help to do it.

She wants it very badly.

I could help her. I could
give her everything she needs.

But I don't want to.

Why not?

I'm not sure.

The arrangement
could even benefit me.

But you deny her.

Because I've already
helped her enough.

I've done way too much
for this girl.

Well, maybe you
see something in her.

First, she was just
a means to an end.

Should have cut her off as
soon as she served her purpose.

But you didn't.

No.

And why do you think that is?

Everything she has now is because
of me and she still wants more.

You didn't answer my question.

Why do you keep her around?

Let's try this.

Why do you want to
kill Chris Sanchez?

I don't. Please.

No!

You want revenge, don't you?

That's why you want to kill him.

Yes, yes, yes!

I've come for revenge!

What the fuck you doing here?

Hey, Sanchez,
you gonna let me in?

Answer the question!

I came to warn you.
You're in danger.

How do you know that?

I need you to
take a ride with me.

Why?

Look, Sanchez, if you don't
trust me, bring your toolbox.

Come on. It's in the back.

Does this have to
do with the mission?

I'm afraid so.

Mr. Erickson said the intelligence
we got out of there paid off.

Did it? That's classified.

My fuckin' men were killed.
I want to know.

Yeah, it paid off. Come on.

You can throw your guns down
wherever you want.

You live here?

I do work here from time
to time. More like an office.

Tell me what the fuck
we're doing here.

Come here.

Come.

What you're about to see,
you never saw it.

You understand?

Yeah, I understand.

Who is this?

His name is Salam Fazel.

He was sent here to kill you.

This his? Yeah.

Who sent him here?

This man.

Nur Taraki. He's a mullah.
Taliban, big deal with them.

Unfortunately,
on that last mission,

you and your men
killed his brother.

Now he's looking for payback.

How do you know all this?

I'm tracking the fallout
on that mission.

They've got this mullah
on a watch list.

And his communications led us
to this shit-bag over here.

This guy wants revenge
for the mullah's brother?

Ask him.

You think I killed
this man's brother?

You think I killed his brother?

You kill Nur Taraki's
brother, now I kill you.

Maybe I did kill him,
but guess what?

You cocksuckers killed my men.

So fuck you.

Relax.

I'm only telling you this

'cause we don't know how many
of these scumbags are out there.

This mullah has access
to cells in the States.

We've got to assume
they're coming after you.

I think they already have.

What do you mean?

That explosion uptown?

I was supposed to be
in that building.

Then this cocksucker
took a shot at me.

Right?

Right?

We found this.

It's a Kalashnikov.

Is there somewhere
you can go for protection?

Mullah Nur Taraki.

Supposedly
we killed his brother,

now he's coming after me.

And Boorman told you this?

Yeah.

If this mullah knows that
you worked for High Star,

then he could start
targeting the whole company.

Don't get too excited now.
Let's be smart about this.

The way I see it,

you should stay here at the
compound till we sort this out.

You're safe here.
No one can touch you.

Or I could redeploy.

You told me yourself,
that's not an option.

I want to go back over there

and waste
this mullah motherfucker

before he gets to me.

If you want to do that,
Chris, I'm going with you.

Let me think about this.

Chris?

Hey, I need to see you.

Did you get my messages?

Yeah, I'd rather
not talk on the phone.

I need your help.
Can you come to my place?

I can be there at 11:00,
is that okay?

I'll see you then. Great.

Thanks for meeting me
so last minute.

Sure. What's going on?

I wanted to let you know that

I've decided to try the High Star
case on my own. I filed the case.

Ellen, you'll be crushed.

Then I'll be crushed.
I'm not going to back down.

It's a terrible idea.

I have to try, Patty.

I think you should step back,
regroup, find another case.

Ellen Parsons?

Don't make us bring
the war to you, bitch.

You all right?

Not really.

This is what I'm going to be up
against if I go through with this.

Howard Erickson has
way too much to lose.

That's why someone
has to take him down.

You said yourself that I
can't try this case alone.

I know I did.
But I changed my mind.

If you back down now,
you'll just be another attorney.

Maybe that's all I am.

Well, then you're at a turning
point. Decide what you want.

I thought I had
what it takes, but...

You're tougher than you think.

I'm not you, Patty. I don't
think I can live like this anymore.

Let me help you.

Help how?

Use my firm, my resources.

I'm grateful, Patty, but no.

The case will be 100% yours.
I have no interest in interfering.

But I'll support you
any way you want.

I don't know.

Let me help you.
I owe it to you.

My witness's name
is Chris Sanchez.

I'll meet with him tomorrow.

Ellen, gang's all here.

Hey, guys.

You were fantastic. Tony,
scary as hell. I had no idea.

Come on, I was
a varsity linebacker.

Very true.
You get what you need?

Yeah. Tequila shots.

Drinks are on me. All right!

Seriously, much appreciated.

Anything for Chris. Cheers.

I would love to stay and
get shit-faced with you guys,

but I'm going to go see him.

Appreciate it. Thanks
again. Of course.

I am not a terrorist.

I know.

Look, here's $10,000.

Sorry for the trouble.

Why did you do this to me?

I love this country.

Really?

I'm not sure I do.

Chris.

Chris, it's Ellen.
I have some good news.

Hello?

Hello?

Possible IED on the right.

I'm going to check it out.

to be okay over there.

You're going to hear tomorrow,

but a few congressmen have
decided to change their votes.

Congratulations.

I appreciate it, Jerry.

See how it all works
out when we do things my way.
