1
00:00:03,771 --> 00:00:05,815
I'm Madeline Matlock.

2
00:00:05,839 --> 00:00:07,651
I'm a lawyer, like the old TV show.

3
00:00:07,675 --> 00:00:09,819
Most of what you know
about me is based in truth.

4
00:00:09,843 --> 00:00:12,189
- But it's also a lie.
- Good evening, Mrs. Kingston.

5
00:00:12,213 --> 00:00:13,357
Who the hell are you?

6
00:00:13,381 --> 00:00:14,624
I wasn't like this before your firm

7
00:00:14,648 --> 00:00:16,350
protected the pharmaceutical company

8
00:00:16,484 --> 00:00:17,685
that killed my daughter.

9
00:00:17,818 --> 00:00:19,296
- You love me.
- I do.

10
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:20,597
You and I have to find
a way to work together

11
00:00:20,621 --> 00:00:23,357
despite our trust issues
to bring down senior.

12
00:00:23,491 --> 00:00:25,035
The partners in charge are in New York?

13
00:00:25,059 --> 00:00:26,603
- Eva.
- I thought it was

14
00:00:26,627 --> 00:00:28,562
a good time to assess the king's court.

15
00:00:28,696 --> 00:00:30,240
Does this involve unseating the king?

16
00:00:30,264 --> 00:00:31,841
- A coup?
- What's going on, dad?

17
00:00:31,865 --> 00:00:33,743
You were trying to get
into belvin's files last night.

18
00:00:33,767 --> 00:00:35,812
What were you looking for, son?

19
00:00:35,836 --> 00:00:37,281
You've been staring at me all morning,

20
00:00:37,305 --> 00:00:39,516
and now you're
following me into hallways.

21
00:00:39,540 --> 00:00:41,375
Matty wasn't conspiring with belvin.

22
00:00:41,509 --> 00:00:44,721
I went after a 76-year-old
grandmother. Your friend.

23
00:00:44,745 --> 00:00:46,556
- What is wrong with me?
- Nothing's wrong with you.

24
00:00:46,580 --> 00:00:50,460
I just crushed Julian in
a way that feels lasting.

25
00:00:50,484 --> 00:00:51,728
I lied, but you are a liar.

26
00:00:51,752 --> 00:00:53,063
I will not do that again

27
00:00:53,087 --> 00:00:54,998
if we move forward with our friendship.

28
00:00:55,022 --> 00:00:56,056
I don't know if I can.

29
00:00:56,190 --> 00:00:58,001
You really hurt me, Matty,

30
00:00:58,025 --> 00:01:00,228
and I need to protect myself.

31
00:01:15,609 --> 00:01:16,676
Morning.

32
00:01:16,777 --> 00:01:18,579
Brought you a coffee.

33
00:01:19,713 --> 00:01:21,390
- And...
- Hi, Ms. Lawrence.

34
00:01:21,414 --> 00:01:23,493
- Morning.
- Hey, Matty. How's the plant doing?

35
00:01:23,517 --> 00:01:25,027
It's growing bigger every day.

36
00:01:25,051 --> 00:01:26,830
Like your son. How's little league?

37
00:01:26,854 --> 00:01:28,698
Big game this weekend.

38
00:01:28,722 --> 00:01:30,424
Prayers up.

39
00:01:31,425 --> 00:01:32,602
Prayers up.

40
00:01:32,626 --> 00:01:33,926
Prayers can work wonders.

41
00:01:34,027 --> 00:01:35,739
It's just an expression.

42
00:01:35,763 --> 00:01:38,241
Me and the big guy parted
ways a long time ago.

43
00:01:38,265 --> 00:01:42,102
Some relationships are worth fighting for.

44
00:01:42,870 --> 00:01:45,606
Maybe you'll find your
way back to each other.

45
00:01:51,579 --> 00:01:54,114
Kind of feels like the
cops driving behind me.

46
00:01:54,215 --> 00:01:55,824
Are you an "every Sunday" Christian

47
00:01:55,848 --> 00:01:57,451
or a christmas/easter Christian?

48
00:01:57,585 --> 00:02:00,854
I'm a "talk about work at work" Christian.

49
00:02:01,789 --> 00:02:04,091
It's a slow day, so let's strategize.

50
00:02:04,192 --> 00:02:06,672
We need to get Debra Palmer's
nda and find out what it covers.

51
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:10,139
Did you look through the
archived wellbrexa index again?

52
00:02:10,163 --> 00:02:12,276
Yes. It's definitely not in the system.

53
00:02:12,300 --> 00:02:14,778
So, senior likely keeps a
hard copy at his home office.

54
00:02:14,802 --> 00:02:17,347
Which means, to get our hands on it,

55
00:02:17,371 --> 00:02:20,950
I have to get in there,
and... Are you listening?

56
00:02:20,974 --> 00:02:22,476
The nuns are back.

57
00:02:28,649 --> 00:02:30,427
Hi, sisters, Eva.

58
00:02:30,451 --> 00:02:32,596
Didn't know you were in New York.

59
00:02:32,620 --> 00:02:34,898
I came for a little personal
matter and stopped by to see

60
00:02:34,922 --> 00:02:36,156
my favorite ladies.

61
00:02:36,257 --> 00:02:37,937
Turns out, they could
use some legal help.

62
00:02:42,463 --> 00:02:44,574
Didn't realize you were so devout.

63
00:02:44,598 --> 00:02:46,976
The sisters helped me with
my catholic guilt after my divorce.

64
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,246
Showed them senior's wardrobe,
and they agreed I deserved

65
00:02:49,270 --> 00:02:50,538
special dispensation.

66
00:02:50,671 --> 00:02:52,105
Hi, Matty.

67
00:02:52,906 --> 00:02:54,651
- Hi. Have we met?
- No.

68
00:02:54,675 --> 00:02:56,152
I researched Olympia's team.

69
00:02:56,176 --> 00:02:58,688
Loved your hardscrabble
story. Super relatable.

70
00:02:58,712 --> 00:03:00,657
To juries, not me. I come from money.

71
00:03:00,681 --> 00:03:02,926
- Good to know.
- Good to have.

72
00:03:02,950 --> 00:03:05,629
So, listen, my nuns run a
ministry for the unhoused

73
00:03:05,653 --> 00:03:07,564
and the neighbors are
making a stink about it,

74
00:03:07,588 --> 00:03:09,233
so I was hoping you'd go
to the zoning board meeting

75
00:03:09,257 --> 00:03:10,867
with them today, shut
the neighbors down.

76
00:03:10,891 --> 00:03:13,694
Maybe you'll fast-pass the pearly gates.

77
00:03:17,898 --> 00:03:19,843
Have Billy and Sarah talk to the sisters.

78
00:03:19,867 --> 00:03:21,978
I'll find you after to
discuss our other case.

79
00:03:29,710 --> 00:03:30,854
It's time.

80
00:03:30,878 --> 00:03:32,555
The quarterly meeting is in six weeks,

81
00:03:32,579 --> 00:03:35,124
and I want to call a vote to oust senior.

82
00:03:35,148 --> 00:03:38,228
- What are your numbers?
- Miami and D.C. are locked.

83
00:03:38,252 --> 00:03:39,663
Chicago and Dallas are senior country.

84
00:03:39,687 --> 00:03:41,097
New York decides it.

85
00:03:41,121 --> 00:03:43,201
Out of 40 partners, we
need 21 to pull off the coup.

86
00:03:43,291 --> 00:03:48,204
I know ten that will say yes
if approached, but not by me.

87
00:03:48,228 --> 00:03:50,574
Agreed. You're poison here.

88
00:03:50,598 --> 00:03:52,208
I shouldn't even be seen with you.

89
00:03:52,232 --> 00:03:53,643
We've got cover with the nuns.

90
00:03:53,667 --> 00:03:55,235
So, what do you say?

91
00:03:55,336 --> 00:03:57,714
You want to deep-fry the devil?

92
00:03:57,738 --> 00:04:00,884
When you hear a higher
calling, you have to answer it.

93
00:04:00,908 --> 00:04:04,020
What started out as a little soup kitchen

94
00:04:04,044 --> 00:04:08,091
blossomed into meals and
hot showers and job training.

95
00:04:08,115 --> 00:04:09,893
"Blossomed"?

96
00:04:09,917 --> 00:04:12,161
You talk like you're
in the sound of music.

97
00:04:12,185 --> 00:04:13,787
Bennie, stop picking on me.

98
00:04:13,921 --> 00:04:16,624
Point is, we help out a lot,
and the community was into it.

99
00:04:16,757 --> 00:04:18,317
But then came the artisanal pickle shop

100
00:04:18,358 --> 00:04:20,504
and the oat milk Espresso bar.

101
00:04:20,528 --> 00:04:22,071
The gentrifiers descended
like a plague of locusts

102
00:04:22,095 --> 00:04:24,264
- with canvas tote bags.
- All right.

103
00:04:24,398 --> 00:04:25,575
We're all god's children.

104
00:04:25,599 --> 00:04:27,768
Even the locusts with the tote bags.

105
00:04:27,901 --> 00:04:29,846
Sorry.

106
00:04:29,870 --> 00:04:31,080
I had to keep my phone on

107
00:04:31,104 --> 00:04:33,240
because, well, I'm having a baby.

108
00:04:33,341 --> 00:04:35,843
How far along is your wife?

109
00:04:36,744 --> 00:04:37,854
Four months.

110
00:04:37,878 --> 00:04:40,314
But, not my wife.

111
00:04:40,448 --> 00:04:44,428
Although I did propose, but
she said no, so... Anyway,

112
00:04:44,452 --> 00:04:46,787
I am going to propose, again.

113
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,998
- You are?
- Yeah.

114
00:04:49,022 --> 00:04:50,534
But when I think about
getting down on one knee,

115
00:04:50,558 --> 00:04:53,126
I just go back to the
moment she said no.

116
00:04:53,260 --> 00:04:55,829
Then take your time to heal.

117
00:04:55,963 --> 00:04:58,308
But remember, marriage
comes with perks.

118
00:04:58,332 --> 00:05:00,334
By which I mean tax incentives.

119
00:05:00,468 --> 00:05:03,337
Listen to her. She does
all of our accounting.

120
00:05:03,471 --> 00:05:06,006
For lord's sake, don't use AI.

121
00:05:06,139 --> 00:05:08,685
The whole point is to
connect with your father.

122
00:05:08,709 --> 00:05:10,887
L-Listen, I've got to get back to work.

123
00:05:10,911 --> 00:05:12,456
Bye.

124
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,724
Joey wrote Alfie from rehab,

125
00:05:14,748 --> 00:05:16,726
and he's stressed
over what to write back.

126
00:05:16,750 --> 00:05:21,297
Eva's ready to stage the coup
at the next quarterly meeting,

127
00:05:21,321 --> 00:05:23,201
if I can secure the votes
needed from New York.

128
00:05:23,290 --> 00:05:25,769
- Well, what are you thinking?
- That if senior's gone,

129
00:05:25,793 --> 00:05:28,662
we'd be able to access
so much more of wellbrexa.

130
00:05:29,663 --> 00:05:32,075
- But if the coup fails...
- Can't.

131
00:05:32,099 --> 00:05:35,536
If you aim for the king,
you better not miss.

132
00:05:42,643 --> 00:05:44,378
Zoning.

133
00:05:46,380 --> 00:05:48,549
Yeah, fascinating little nook of the law.

134
00:05:48,682 --> 00:05:51,828
It's just... Research for Olympia, sir.

135
00:05:51,852 --> 00:05:53,286
Call me senior.

136
00:05:54,187 --> 00:05:55,355
Liked meeting your parents.

137
00:05:55,456 --> 00:05:56,800
Gary's not actually...

138
00:05:56,824 --> 00:05:58,392
Your dad said you were ambitious.

139
00:05:58,526 --> 00:06:00,269
Well, dad never lies.

140
00:06:00,293 --> 00:06:02,839
Good, because I need a favor.

141
00:06:02,863 --> 00:06:04,898
Anything, senior.

142
00:06:05,032 --> 00:06:09,879
I think my son is plotting to
poach clients when he leaves,

143
00:06:09,903 --> 00:06:11,347
but I want to be sure,

144
00:06:11,371 --> 00:06:13,240
so I need pictures of his datebook

145
00:06:13,373 --> 00:06:15,351
for the last six months.

146
00:06:15,375 --> 00:06:18,688
Can I trust you to handle this discreetly?

147
00:06:18,712 --> 00:06:23,760
Well... is there a conflict?

148
00:06:23,784 --> 00:06:25,562
Because I-I work for Olympia.

149
00:06:25,586 --> 00:06:28,965
Ambitious lawyer like you knows

150
00:06:28,989 --> 00:06:32,259
that the good of the
firm always comes first.

151
00:06:56,850 --> 00:07:00,997
Next issue before the
board, matter

152
00:07:01,021 --> 00:07:03,900
regarding the convent of perpetual hope.

153
00:07:06,393 --> 00:07:07,804
I'm sorry

154
00:07:07,828 --> 00:07:11,374
for whatever it was that
made you lose your faith.

155
00:07:11,398 --> 00:07:14,301
Must've been terribly painful.

156
00:07:17,270 --> 00:07:19,272
Death of my child.

157
00:07:21,141 --> 00:07:22,819
The hardest to explain.

158
00:07:22,843 --> 00:07:24,945
One can only say...

159
00:07:25,078 --> 00:07:29,693
God is near the brokenhearted,
restores the crushed in spirit.

160
00:07:29,717 --> 00:07:32,653
Yeah, didn't feel him near.

161
00:07:34,321 --> 00:07:37,357
And yet, you survived the unimaginable.

162
00:07:38,759 --> 00:07:40,360
You think he left you.

163
00:07:41,261 --> 00:07:43,631
I think he left you standing.

164
00:07:43,764 --> 00:07:45,942
Put the right people in your path

165
00:07:45,966 --> 00:07:49,069
so you didn't remain broken forever.

166
00:07:54,374 --> 00:07:56,352
All right, let's begin.

167
00:07:56,376 --> 00:07:59,989
Esteemed board members,
I come before you on behalf

168
00:08:00,013 --> 00:08:01,625
of a coalition of concerned neighbors.

169
00:08:01,649 --> 00:08:05,995
Allowing a zoning variance
sets dangerous precedent.

170
00:08:06,019 --> 00:08:08,598
What happens when a developer
requests the same accommodation?

171
00:08:08,622 --> 00:08:11,501
Studio apartments turned
into bunk-bed hostels?

172
00:08:11,525 --> 00:08:14,194
In 2012, the convent provided
shelter for Sandy evacuees.

173
00:08:14,327 --> 00:08:15,705
In 2020, the convent

174
00:08:15,729 --> 00:08:18,341
housed nurses brought
in to tackle the pandemic.

175
00:08:18,365 --> 00:08:20,844
Last summer, when it was
too hot for the cub scouts

176
00:08:20,868 --> 00:08:23,379
to sleep outside, they slept in the church.

177
00:08:23,403 --> 00:08:25,749
And I don't recall any
"slippery slope" objections

178
00:08:25,773 --> 00:08:27,016
to those uses.

179
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,152
We're not talking about cub scouts.

180
00:08:29,176 --> 00:08:31,154
When the nuns opened their shelter,

181
00:08:31,178 --> 00:08:33,322
vandalism and property
crimes started rising.

182
00:08:33,346 --> 00:08:36,159
As they did citywide.
Correlation is not causation.

183
00:08:36,183 --> 00:08:38,351
And I have multiple studies
showing that the addition

184
00:08:38,485 --> 00:08:40,854
of homeless shelters
lowers property values.

185
00:08:40,988 --> 00:08:42,765
60 years ago, if someone
who looked like me

186
00:08:42,789 --> 00:08:44,534
moved into the neighborhood,
you'd hear that same argument.

187
00:08:44,558 --> 00:08:47,704
It is based on prejudice, not on facts.

188
00:08:47,728 --> 00:08:49,005
What is a fact

189
00:08:49,029 --> 00:08:52,065
is that 770 unhoused
new yorkers died last year

190
00:08:52,199 --> 00:08:54,510
from extreme heat
and cold temperatures,

191
00:08:54,534 --> 00:08:56,179
from a lack of access to medical care,

192
00:08:56,203 --> 00:08:57,513
from malnutrition.

193
00:08:57,537 --> 00:08:59,740
What these nuns are
doing shouldn't be restricted,

194
00:08:59,873 --> 00:09:02,409
it should be celebrated.

195
00:09:02,542 --> 00:09:03,519
We won?

196
00:09:03,543 --> 00:09:05,521
Praise be.

197
00:09:05,545 --> 00:09:07,247
Yup, my headache is better,

198
00:09:07,380 --> 00:09:09,258
was just doing some backup research.

199
00:09:09,282 --> 00:09:10,694
I'll meet you downstairs.

200
00:09:10,718 --> 00:09:12,195
One of the sisters left
their mardi gras beads

201
00:09:12,219 --> 00:09:13,220
in the conference room.

202
00:09:15,856 --> 00:09:18,301
Sarah found your rosary.

203
00:09:21,394 --> 00:09:22,839
Wait here with Billy.

204
00:09:22,863 --> 00:09:25,098
Matty will grab your
client intake paperwork.

205
00:09:26,734 --> 00:09:28,244
Eva wants an answer.

206
00:09:28,268 --> 00:09:31,314
Take away the title, you
take away senior's power.

207
00:09:31,338 --> 00:09:34,441
And once he's gone, the loyalty dries up,

208
00:09:34,574 --> 00:09:36,485
and he's not here to guard the evidence,

209
00:09:36,509 --> 00:09:38,779
and our case just opens right up.

210
00:09:38,912 --> 00:09:41,581
I know, but supporting the vote

211
00:09:41,682 --> 00:09:43,617
and rallying all the
other partners together

212
00:09:43,751 --> 00:09:44,761
are two different things.

213
00:09:44,785 --> 00:09:46,796
I-I have a lot to lose.

214
00:09:46,820 --> 00:09:48,331
Personally and professionally.

215
00:09:48,355 --> 00:09:51,300
Well, that's why I should
be the tip of the spear.

216
00:09:51,324 --> 00:09:52,736
You know, the other partners won't see

217
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,170
Matty Matlock a-coming.

218
00:09:54,194 --> 00:09:57,130
- And if I'm caught...
- Then you'd be out.

219
00:09:58,398 --> 00:10:01,769
I'd be at Jacobson Moore
alone, flying solo on our mission.

220
00:10:02,636 --> 00:10:03,937
I trust you.

221
00:10:05,538 --> 00:10:09,176
And also, have faith.

222
00:10:10,577 --> 00:10:12,445
I-I do.

223
00:10:14,782 --> 00:10:16,516
Look, I read your letter.

224
00:10:17,951 --> 00:10:21,454
I want to get back to our friendship.

225
00:10:22,756 --> 00:10:24,133
But I don't know if I can.

226
00:10:24,157 --> 00:10:26,035
I'll focus on "want."

227
00:10:28,829 --> 00:10:29,839
Hello?

228
00:10:29,863 --> 00:10:31,775
Whoa, sister Louise, slow down.

229
00:10:31,799 --> 00:10:32,833
What?

230
00:10:33,633 --> 00:10:36,279
There's some sort of raid
happening at the church.

231
00:10:36,303 --> 00:10:37,981
What? Why?

232
00:10:38,005 --> 00:10:39,248
No. It's not that I don't think

233
00:10:39,272 --> 00:10:40,616
being a corporate compliance liaison

234
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,218
- is important. I'm not...
- Hey, Julian.

235
00:10:42,242 --> 00:10:44,444
- Enough, hours in the day.
- Wait, Julian.

236
00:10:48,915 --> 00:10:50,559
Sorry, I...

237
00:10:56,857 --> 00:10:59,392
Holy cr...

238
00:11:04,231 --> 00:11:05,875
Help! I'm walking home,

239
00:11:05,899 --> 00:11:07,176
and I just saw a man run into the church.

240
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,511
I think he has a gun.

241
00:11:08,535 --> 00:11:10,379
Nice job shaking the 911 call loose.

242
00:11:10,403 --> 00:11:13,016
Well, having a family full
of cops has its benefits.

243
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,417
And that call was definitely a hoax.

244
00:11:14,441 --> 00:11:16,652
Matty, Sarah, and I canvassed everyone

245
00:11:16,676 --> 00:11:18,278
in or near the church.

246
00:11:18,411 --> 00:11:19,923
No one saw anyone with a gun.

247
00:11:19,947 --> 00:11:21,725
Well, I just got a heads-up
from opposing counsel

248
00:11:21,749 --> 00:11:23,559
that the neighbors are filing a civil suit.

249
00:11:23,583 --> 00:11:25,494
What? On what basis?

250
00:11:25,518 --> 00:11:28,331
Something to do with
whatever they found in the raid.

251
00:11:28,355 --> 00:11:29,899
We still need the seizure log.

252
00:11:29,923 --> 00:11:31,467
My sisters are all over it.

253
00:11:31,491 --> 00:11:33,369
Cop sisters, not nun sisters.

254
00:11:33,393 --> 00:11:35,428
Although, nun sisters
are working on it, too,

255
00:11:35,562 --> 00:11:36,505
through prayer.

256
00:11:36,529 --> 00:11:37,741
How are they holding up

257
00:11:37,765 --> 00:11:39,108
with all the neighborhood hostility?

258
00:11:39,132 --> 00:11:40,576
Practicing forgiveness.

259
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:44,213
And encouraging me to do
the same with Claudia during our

260
00:11:44,237 --> 00:11:45,472
pre-cana counseling sessions.

261
00:11:45,605 --> 00:11:48,351
- How's that going?
- I can forgive,

262
00:11:48,375 --> 00:11:50,453
but forgetting is difficult.

263
00:11:50,477 --> 00:11:52,055
Claudia really crushed
me, and she wants

264
00:11:52,079 --> 00:11:54,690
to move forward like
nothing ever happened.

265
00:11:54,714 --> 00:11:57,260
Easier said than done. Trust me, I get it.

266
00:11:57,284 --> 00:11:59,095
Thanks. I know she doesn't
mean to pressure me, but...

267
00:11:59,119 --> 00:12:01,630
I'm sure Claudia would go
back and do things differently,

268
00:12:01,654 --> 00:12:03,466
- if she could.
- Yeah, that's what she says, but...

269
00:12:03,490 --> 00:12:06,059
It still happened, and
forgiveness can't be rushed.

270
00:12:11,098 --> 00:12:12,041
Welcome back!

271
00:12:12,065 --> 00:12:14,501
Brought you breakfast.

272
00:12:14,634 --> 00:12:16,612
I told you in the hospital, no need.

273
00:12:16,636 --> 00:12:18,948
And I told you in the
hospital, it's the least I can do

274
00:12:18,972 --> 00:12:22,509
since I... almost killed you.

275
00:12:26,279 --> 00:12:27,857
- Hey, let me...
- No, no.

276
00:12:27,881 --> 00:12:31,351
- No.
- I got it. I... I got, I got...

277
00:12:32,319 --> 00:12:33,486
Here.

278
00:12:37,590 --> 00:12:40,469
This desk violates,
like, six Ada guidelines.

279
00:12:40,493 --> 00:12:42,671
Let me reorganize it for you.

280
00:12:42,695 --> 00:12:44,240
I'm all good here,

281
00:12:44,264 --> 00:12:46,699
but I do have to make a
phone call, so could you...

282
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,537
Okay. I'll check in with you later.

283
00:12:51,538 --> 00:12:52,672
Bye.

284
00:12:57,010 --> 00:12:58,521
Olympia, help.

285
00:12:58,545 --> 00:13:01,357
Sarah is overbearing, she
is annoying, and she's...

286
00:13:01,381 --> 00:13:04,027
Right in front of me. Got
it. Sarah, walk with me.

287
00:13:04,051 --> 00:13:05,761
- Sure. Where? Anywhere.
- Coffee.

288
00:13:05,785 --> 00:13:08,055
Fun, yes.

289
00:13:08,188 --> 00:13:09,498
Want to fire up the mentors hip again?

290
00:13:09,522 --> 00:13:11,434
Tbd, but here's some mentor advice.

291
00:13:11,458 --> 00:13:15,271
Give Julian some space,
like we talked about in the er

292
00:13:15,295 --> 00:13:17,606
and the hospital cafeteria.

293
00:13:17,630 --> 00:13:19,442
It's just hard.

294
00:13:19,466 --> 00:13:21,534
Look, can I be frank?

295
00:13:21,668 --> 00:13:22,979
Have you ever not been?

296
00:13:23,003 --> 00:13:24,243
Yeah, I hold back all the time.

297
00:13:24,371 --> 00:13:27,851
I just, I feel so badly for Julian.

298
00:13:27,875 --> 00:13:30,619
His life is in the toilet. You divorced him,

299
00:13:30,643 --> 00:13:32,088
and then trounced him in a partner race,

300
00:13:32,112 --> 00:13:33,752
his dad demoted him,
and then he goes all

301
00:13:33,847 --> 00:13:35,591
death becomes her
down the lobby stairs.

302
00:13:35,615 --> 00:13:36,893
Guy can't catch a break, you know?

303
00:13:36,917 --> 00:13:39,728
Yeah. Yeah, I do know.

304
00:13:39,752 --> 00:13:43,199
So maybe you could
help me... Help him?

305
00:13:43,223 --> 00:13:44,424
Hey, boss.

306
00:13:44,557 --> 00:13:45,902
Found the contents of the raid.

307
00:13:45,926 --> 00:13:47,294
You're gonna want to take a look.

308
00:13:48,395 --> 00:13:49,762
Drugs.

309
00:13:49,863 --> 00:13:52,575
Specifically, heroin and
six dozen hypodermics.

310
00:13:52,599 --> 00:13:55,936
And we think we know why
it was found in the church.

311
00:13:56,069 --> 00:13:57,646
We believe the neighborhood coalition

312
00:13:57,670 --> 00:14:00,349
planted the drugs after
losing with the zoning board.

313
00:14:00,373 --> 00:14:02,451
Then, they called 911, said they saw

314
00:14:02,475 --> 00:14:05,054
a gun, knowing the cops
would respond immediately.

315
00:14:05,078 --> 00:14:07,747
A way to bolster their
public nuisance lawsuit.

316
00:14:09,649 --> 00:14:11,018
What is it?

317
00:14:12,019 --> 00:14:15,999
The neighbors didn't plant
the heroin or the needles.

318
00:14:16,023 --> 00:14:19,568
2018, we were finding people dead,

319
00:14:19,592 --> 00:14:24,240
felt like nearly every day,
on park benches, in a pew.

320
00:14:24,264 --> 00:14:25,474
We started stocking narcan.

321
00:14:25,498 --> 00:14:27,267
Narcan's a lifesaver.

322
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,336
What about the needles?

323
00:14:30,237 --> 00:14:32,715
One night, this girl came in.

324
00:14:32,739 --> 00:14:35,118
Shaking, track marks,

325
00:14:35,142 --> 00:14:37,753
- on the edge of withdrawal.
- We had a zero-tolerance policy,

326
00:14:37,777 --> 00:14:40,623
but it was freezing, eight inches of snow.

327
00:14:40,647 --> 00:14:42,025
Well, she was terrified

328
00:14:42,049 --> 00:14:44,360
she'd take a hot shot and never wake up.

329
00:14:44,384 --> 00:14:48,631
So, we sat with her,
and she was so grateful.

330
00:14:48,655 --> 00:14:50,823
Talked about the times
she'd been robbed, assaulted

331
00:14:50,924 --> 00:14:52,969
while she was high on the streets.

332
00:14:52,993 --> 00:14:55,304
So now, only when asked,

333
00:14:55,328 --> 00:14:58,441
we provide clean needles, alcohol wipes,

334
00:14:58,465 --> 00:15:00,543
and a safe injection site.

335
00:15:00,567 --> 00:15:01,927
There is a name for this practice.

336
00:15:01,969 --> 00:15:03,836
Harm reduction. There's no such thing.

337
00:15:03,937 --> 00:15:06,182
You know how people get clean?

338
00:15:06,206 --> 00:15:07,616
They lose the things they love.

339
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,986
The practice reduces
overdose deaths by 50%.

340
00:15:10,010 --> 00:15:12,879
Reducing overdoses is not
the same as getting clean.

341
00:15:12,980 --> 00:15:15,891
It's a temporary reprieve on a journey

342
00:15:15,915 --> 00:15:17,660
that leads to the same destination.

343
00:15:17,684 --> 00:15:21,521
Addicts end up in jail, sober, or dead.

344
00:15:21,654 --> 00:15:24,733
Regardless of any personal
opinion, the neighborhood

345
00:15:24,757 --> 00:15:27,170
coalition's lawsuit just got teeth.

346
00:15:27,194 --> 00:15:29,172
Are you willing to give up the practice?

347
00:15:29,196 --> 00:15:31,731
We can't walk away from those in need.

348
00:15:32,565 --> 00:15:33,700
Then we go to trial

349
00:15:33,833 --> 00:15:36,279
and defend you under rluipa, show that

350
00:15:36,303 --> 00:15:38,547
harm reduction is an
exercise of your religion

351
00:15:38,571 --> 00:15:40,416
and prove there is no compelling

352
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,842
governmental interest in shutting it down.

353
00:15:51,184 --> 00:15:53,562
I think that you should sit this one out.

354
00:15:53,586 --> 00:15:55,431
No.

355
00:15:55,455 --> 00:15:57,066
I want to be here.

356
00:15:57,090 --> 00:15:59,526
It's... it's like Billy said,

357
00:15:59,659 --> 00:16:02,671
forgiveness is slow and steady work.

358
00:16:02,695 --> 00:16:06,266
You keep showing up, even if it's tough.

359
00:16:08,735 --> 00:16:09,969
Coffee date still on?

360
00:16:10,070 --> 00:16:13,106
- Yeah. I'm heading there next.
- Great.

361
00:16:19,546 --> 00:16:21,790
Hey. Have you talked to Sarah yet?

362
00:16:21,814 --> 00:16:23,259
Because I got texts from her

363
00:16:23,283 --> 00:16:25,652
offering to do my homework
and carry my book bag.

364
00:16:27,220 --> 00:16:30,066
Look, she just wants to help.

365
00:16:30,090 --> 00:16:31,867
I don't need help.

366
00:16:31,891 --> 00:16:33,502
You kind of do.

367
00:16:33,526 --> 00:16:35,404
You know the kids are
calling you "sad dad"?

368
00:16:35,428 --> 00:16:38,707
I know. They spelled it in
stickers on my bathroom mirror.

369
00:16:38,731 --> 00:16:41,710
Sarah can't fix what's wrong with my life.

370
00:16:41,734 --> 00:16:42,902
Agreed.

371
00:16:43,036 --> 00:16:45,148
You're stuck. You've
lost your confidence,

372
00:16:45,172 --> 00:16:46,692
and you've become a shell of yourself.

373
00:16:46,739 --> 00:16:48,251
Well, thanks for the pep talk.

374
00:16:48,275 --> 00:16:50,110
You should look into,
motivational speaking.

375
00:16:50,243 --> 00:16:52,388
Straight talk. You want that to change?

376
00:16:52,412 --> 00:16:54,557
Start practicing the law.
That's what you're good at.

377
00:16:54,581 --> 00:16:58,227
I'll remind you, my father had
me hand over all my cases.

378
00:16:58,251 --> 00:16:59,595
Then get new ones.

379
00:16:59,619 --> 00:17:01,330
So when you leave Jacobson Moore,

380
00:17:01,354 --> 00:17:02,665
you have some heat behind you.

381
00:17:02,689 --> 00:17:04,733
Use Sarah as the gasoline. Win-win.

382
00:17:04,757 --> 00:17:06,334
She works off a little guilt,

383
00:17:06,358 --> 00:17:07,894
you show them you're still hungry.

384
00:17:08,928 --> 00:17:10,606
Pour some sugar on me.

385
00:17:10,630 --> 00:17:12,940
- Matty, we meet again.
- Third time this week.

386
00:17:12,964 --> 00:17:15,234
Well, god works in
mysterious ways, Rob.

387
00:17:16,769 --> 00:17:19,114
How's your class action? Still a circus?

388
00:17:19,138 --> 00:17:20,473
Yup, and I'm still the guy

389
00:17:20,607 --> 00:17:22,118
pushing the broom behind the elephant.

390
00:17:22,142 --> 00:17:24,253
Well, somebody's got to
pay for the company jet.

391
00:17:24,277 --> 00:17:27,579
How else would senior
make tee time at St. Andrew's?

392
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,958
Oops. Sorry.

393
00:17:29,982 --> 00:17:32,128
Just with all those
whispers out of Miami,

394
00:17:32,152 --> 00:17:35,030
- I'm a little riled up.
- What whispers?

395
00:17:35,054 --> 00:17:36,256
You haven't heard?

396
00:17:37,724 --> 00:17:39,034
Lord.

397
00:17:39,058 --> 00:17:40,603
I'm always speaking out of turn.

398
00:17:40,627 --> 00:17:42,671
That's one of my g-darn worst habits.

399
00:17:42,695 --> 00:17:44,207
Matty, wait.

400
00:17:44,231 --> 00:17:46,975
No, I don't want to get in trouble.

401
00:17:46,999 --> 00:17:49,212
I shouldn't have said anything.

402
00:17:49,236 --> 00:17:50,346
This stays between the two of us.

403
00:17:50,370 --> 00:17:53,506
Just tell me what you've heard.

404
00:17:55,775 --> 00:17:59,288
So, I told Rob that Sonia
Levy was talking to you

405
00:17:59,312 --> 00:18:01,357
and Vince Miller about the Miami office

406
00:18:01,381 --> 00:18:03,392
initiating some sort of coup.

407
00:18:03,416 --> 00:18:05,394
Now... I told him

408
00:18:05,418 --> 00:18:08,997
you'd never entertain it,
but Vince seemed interested.

409
00:18:09,021 --> 00:18:12,659
That explains why I saw Rob
and Vince talking in the law library

410
00:18:12,792 --> 00:18:14,203
this afternoon.

411
00:18:14,227 --> 00:18:15,738
- Good work.
- Great.

412
00:18:15,762 --> 00:18:17,164
Who's our next vote?

413
00:18:17,297 --> 00:18:18,841
I got another one.

414
00:18:18,865 --> 00:18:21,434
It's email from his dad, not a vote.

415
00:18:22,269 --> 00:18:24,947
I was thinking about
targeting Felicia Spencer.

416
00:18:24,971 --> 00:18:27,207
Middle of a pricey divorce.

417
00:18:27,340 --> 00:18:28,684
Thought I'd get her going with

418
00:18:28,708 --> 00:18:30,919
"no-account, low-down, cheating ex" talk,

419
00:18:30,943 --> 00:18:32,488
and then wind her up about

420
00:18:32,512 --> 00:18:34,681
the downturn in bonus projections.

421
00:18:35,982 --> 00:18:37,384
What?

422
00:18:37,517 --> 00:18:39,162
I wasn't saying anything.

423
00:18:39,186 --> 00:18:40,629
We discussed this.

424
00:18:40,653 --> 00:18:42,097
It's not fair for you to ask me

425
00:18:42,121 --> 00:18:44,099
to lie and then get mad at me for doing it.

426
00:18:44,123 --> 00:18:45,203
I can't control how I feel.

427
00:18:45,325 --> 00:18:46,735
Well, this is how I get things done.

428
00:18:46,759 --> 00:18:48,804
- I know.
- What else do you need from me?

429
00:18:48,828 --> 00:18:50,739
Time. I need time.

430
00:18:50,763 --> 00:18:52,064
No problem.

431
00:18:56,869 --> 00:18:58,238
Harm reduction.

432
00:18:58,371 --> 00:19:00,949
Since you're arguing
religious freedom, can you

433
00:19:00,973 --> 00:19:03,852
point me to a single verse in this book

434
00:19:03,876 --> 00:19:06,722
that says it's okay to help people

435
00:19:06,746 --> 00:19:08,257
- inject heroin?
- Well,

436
00:19:08,281 --> 00:19:13,220
we could certainly look
at Micah 6:8, Ezekiel 34:4,

437
00:19:13,353 --> 00:19:14,887
Jeremiah 30:17.

438
00:19:15,021 --> 00:19:17,700
Heroin. Where in the Bible does it say...

439
00:19:17,724 --> 00:19:19,402
Objection, asked and answered.

440
00:19:19,426 --> 00:19:23,138
None of those verses are
about addicts shooting up.

441
00:19:23,162 --> 00:19:25,131
Overruled. You may answer.

442
00:19:26,699 --> 00:19:29,011
Jesus explicitly stated

443
00:19:29,035 --> 00:19:33,649
that his followers were to
provide support to the sick,

444
00:19:33,673 --> 00:19:37,777
and those that didn't would
be cast into eternal flame.

445
00:19:38,878 --> 00:19:43,959
The dsm-5... that's a Bible
of-of sorts, to doctors...

446
00:19:43,983 --> 00:19:48,297
lists substance use
disorder as a health condition.

447
00:19:48,321 --> 00:19:51,900
So, our ministry to addicts is not just

448
00:19:51,924 --> 00:19:56,572
in line with Christ's teachings,
it's compelled by them.

449
00:19:56,596 --> 00:19:59,266
Interesting interpretation.

450
00:19:59,399 --> 00:20:03,011
And interpretation is key here, isn't it?

451
00:20:03,035 --> 00:20:07,082
I asked your own archdiocese
for an advisory opinion.

452
00:20:07,106 --> 00:20:10,176
Would you please read
the highlighted section?

453
00:20:15,648 --> 00:20:17,817
"Cooperation in drug abuse

454
00:20:17,950 --> 00:20:21,897
is a grave offense against moral law."

455
00:20:21,921 --> 00:20:23,222
If your own church

456
00:20:23,323 --> 00:20:25,992
considers your program
a "grave offense,"

457
00:20:26,125 --> 00:20:27,603
then how can you claim

458
00:20:27,627 --> 00:20:30,062
it's an exercise of religious beliefs?

459
00:20:33,766 --> 00:20:36,336
What time is it in Italy?

460
00:20:42,409 --> 00:20:44,019
You are calm.

461
00:20:44,043 --> 00:20:46,855
Adversity rolls over you
like waves in the ocean.

462
00:20:46,879 --> 00:20:48,524
Your Patience is endless.

463
00:20:48,548 --> 00:20:51,460
- As deep as the...
- Damn it! It's you.

464
00:20:51,484 --> 00:20:53,762
I'm sorry, darling, I thought
it was your grandfather.

465
00:20:53,786 --> 00:20:55,264
So that's a no on the British lady?

466
00:20:55,288 --> 00:20:58,124
No, I hate her. Let's
try the Australian dude.

467
00:20:58,257 --> 00:21:00,636
Okay. And another email from Joey.

468
00:21:00,660 --> 00:21:01,994
That's 12 days in a row.

469
00:21:02,128 --> 00:21:05,107
Well, I like that he's being so consistent.

470
00:21:05,131 --> 00:21:07,500
How's the British lady working out?

471
00:21:07,634 --> 00:21:09,044
Not a match.

472
00:21:09,068 --> 00:21:10,245
It's Olympia.

473
00:21:10,269 --> 00:21:13,373
Remember, Patience.

474
00:21:14,974 --> 00:21:16,476
Hi there, Olympia.

475
00:21:17,944 --> 00:21:19,812
Grace tan?

476
00:21:19,946 --> 00:21:21,790
That's fantastic.

477
00:21:21,814 --> 00:21:25,685
And I hope you're enjoying
your time that I'm giving you

478
00:21:25,818 --> 00:21:27,830
because I'm not.

479
00:21:27,854 --> 00:21:30,857
She'd already hung up.

480
00:21:30,990 --> 00:21:35,471
Well, that's our last vote for the coup.

481
00:21:35,495 --> 00:21:37,440
Next, I get to go and watch

482
00:21:37,464 --> 00:21:39,499
Olympia defend harm reduction,

483
00:21:39,632 --> 00:21:41,901
in court and to the catholic church.

484
00:21:46,539 --> 00:21:49,342
Vatican group text.

485
00:21:49,476 --> 00:21:50,756
Kidding. Delta found my luggage.

486
00:21:50,843 --> 00:21:52,345
So you were saying?

487
00:21:52,479 --> 00:21:54,046
Got a hearing set for canon court.

488
00:21:54,180 --> 00:21:56,291
What are the chances of them
overturning the archdiocese?

489
00:21:56,315 --> 00:21:58,627
If I can convince them
that supporting the sinner

490
00:21:58,651 --> 00:22:01,063
is different than encouraging
the sin, we got a shot.

491
00:22:01,087 --> 00:22:04,099
Well, if anyone can do
it, you can, pat. I mean...

492
00:22:04,123 --> 00:22:05,568
father.

493
00:22:05,592 --> 00:22:07,360
Sorry, still so weird

494
00:22:07,494 --> 00:22:09,505
to think of you as anything other than...

495
00:22:09,529 --> 00:22:10,973
Cutthroat Cassidy?

496
00:22:10,997 --> 00:22:12,475
- Hangman paddy?
- I had a long list

497
00:22:12,499 --> 00:22:14,076
of nicknames in my former life.

498
00:22:14,100 --> 00:22:16,111
I was going to say the partner

499
00:22:16,135 --> 00:22:17,846
who coached me through
my first daubert hearing.

500
00:22:17,870 --> 00:22:20,849
Never forget when you
told me you were leaving.

501
00:22:20,873 --> 00:22:22,518
Well, 20 years working for the devil,

502
00:22:22,542 --> 00:22:23,819
I figured I'd give god a try.

503
00:22:23,843 --> 00:22:26,546
So I'm the devil now?

504
00:22:28,548 --> 00:22:29,858
I didn't think you'd be back

505
00:22:29,882 --> 00:22:32,027
after that big Jerry Maguire exit.

506
00:22:32,051 --> 00:22:34,029
Happy to pop by for a case consult.

507
00:22:34,053 --> 00:22:35,321
Or a quick exorcism.

508
00:22:35,422 --> 00:22:38,290
Well, put in a word for me
with the big guy, Cassidy.

509
00:22:38,391 --> 00:22:40,727
Don't worry, he's heard all about you.

510
00:22:42,261 --> 00:22:44,907
Be careful of the company you keep.

511
00:22:44,931 --> 00:22:46,775
This guy. Eva.

512
00:22:46,799 --> 00:22:49,478
Not working with Eva.
Working with nuns.

513
00:22:49,502 --> 00:22:51,904
You told me a long time ago

514
00:22:52,038 --> 00:22:55,150
to always say yes when
the higher-ups ask for a favor.

515
00:23:03,750 --> 00:23:05,661
Careful calling me.

516
00:23:05,685 --> 00:23:08,030
- Senior was in my office.
- Bad news.

517
00:23:08,054 --> 00:23:11,066
Kent dodson left the Miami
office for Lamar and Olson,

518
00:23:11,090 --> 00:23:13,101
which means we are down a vote.

519
00:23:13,125 --> 00:23:14,703
- No.
- Yeah.

520
00:23:14,727 --> 00:23:16,705
I spent the last week
shaking trees in other offices,

521
00:23:16,729 --> 00:23:18,073
but there's no one left to approach.

522
00:23:18,097 --> 00:23:20,399
Can you get one more in New York?

523
00:23:20,500 --> 00:23:22,811
Honestly, I don't know if I can.

524
00:23:22,835 --> 00:23:25,672
Honestly? The presentation's incredible.

525
00:23:25,805 --> 00:23:29,618
I'm going to land incognity
solutions as a client.

526
00:23:29,642 --> 00:23:32,788
And I am totally excited about that,

527
00:23:32,812 --> 00:23:34,990
even though the company
is going to eliminate my job

528
00:23:35,014 --> 00:23:36,258
in two years.

529
00:23:36,282 --> 00:23:37,993
Reason I always sweet-talk my Alexa.

530
00:23:38,017 --> 00:23:39,562
Got to stay on good terms with the bots

531
00:23:39,586 --> 00:23:40,987
before the robot uprising.

532
00:23:41,120 --> 00:23:43,398
Exactly. Why does no one
else here understand that?

533
00:23:43,422 --> 00:23:45,968
I've been sucking up to
mine for the last six years.

534
00:23:50,963 --> 00:23:54,910
You're not meeting
incognity here, are you?

535
00:23:54,934 --> 00:23:57,537
You don't find my office impressive?

536
00:23:57,670 --> 00:24:00,082
- I mean...
- I'm going to them. And yes,

537
00:24:00,106 --> 00:24:01,984
to your next question, you can come

538
00:24:02,008 --> 00:24:04,176
while we're meeting
and reorganize my office.

539
00:24:05,211 --> 00:24:11,694
Unless... you are replaced
by then by the robots.

540
00:24:11,718 --> 00:24:16,723
Even robots can't color-code like I can.

541
00:24:17,490 --> 00:24:20,603
You look how I feel, son. You okay?

542
00:24:20,627 --> 00:24:23,138
I'm just trying to get this doc review done

543
00:24:23,162 --> 00:24:25,207
for the priest-lawyer-emeritus guy.

544
00:24:25,231 --> 00:24:26,441
Ready for court?

545
00:24:26,465 --> 00:24:28,010
Yeah. Ready, boss.

546
00:24:28,034 --> 00:24:30,369
- We'll meet you at the elevator.
- Yeah.

547
00:24:32,705 --> 00:24:35,217
We lost a vote. Somehow,
we have to find another.

548
00:24:35,241 --> 00:24:37,285
It's a huge problem.

549
00:24:37,309 --> 00:24:40,246
Trust me, I didn't want to have
to organize against a convent.

550
00:24:40,379 --> 00:24:41,581
I'm a Christian.

551
00:24:41,714 --> 00:24:45,160
My kids are in the Christmas pageant.

552
00:24:45,184 --> 00:24:47,295
And what changed your mind?

553
00:24:47,319 --> 00:24:48,831
August 17.

554
00:24:48,855 --> 00:24:51,634
I was outside with my first grader.

555
00:24:51,658 --> 00:24:53,560
Is that when you took this video?

556
00:24:54,426 --> 00:24:59,074
No! No. No... Yes.

557
00:25:00,567 --> 00:25:03,078
- No, let me go! Let me go!
- I thought it was random,

558
00:25:03,102 --> 00:25:05,347
but now I know that they
are condoning this behavior,

559
00:25:05,371 --> 00:25:07,049
attracting users...

560
00:25:07,073 --> 00:25:08,917
Your honor, this is
deliberately inflammatory.

561
00:25:08,941 --> 00:25:11,578
I move for an immediate protective order

562
00:25:11,711 --> 00:25:14,056
- placing this exhibit under seal.
- On what grounds?

563
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,191
This is what's happening.
Harm reduction isn't

564
00:25:16,215 --> 00:25:18,761
gentle hymns, quiet prayers.

565
00:25:18,785 --> 00:25:22,765
It's overdoses, it's blood
and vomit and needles.

566
00:25:22,789 --> 00:25:25,100
It's addicts flying into violent rages

567
00:25:25,124 --> 00:25:27,670
because narcan ripped away their high.

568
00:25:27,694 --> 00:25:30,162
This is what it looks like.

569
00:25:36,468 --> 00:25:38,246
Are you okay?

570
00:25:38,270 --> 00:25:41,049
Seeing that? Watching that?

571
00:25:41,073 --> 00:25:42,785
No, I'm not.

572
00:25:42,809 --> 00:25:44,319
Which is why I told you to stay home.

573
00:25:44,343 --> 00:25:46,478
Well, clearly, I should have.

574
00:25:46,613 --> 00:25:48,514
And I don't know why I didn't.

575
00:25:49,616 --> 00:25:52,084
Actually, that's not true.

576
00:25:53,185 --> 00:25:55,387
It's my own addiction.

577
00:25:56,623 --> 00:25:59,826
To fixing this. Us.

578
00:26:01,127 --> 00:26:03,796
We need some space.

579
00:26:05,598 --> 00:26:07,967
Let's call it harm reduction.

580
00:26:23,549 --> 00:26:26,518
The archdiocese is evicting us?

581
00:26:26,619 --> 00:26:28,030
They referenced the video

582
00:26:28,054 --> 00:26:29,965
and the two New York
ledger articles about

583
00:26:29,989 --> 00:26:32,091
the od in front of the church.

584
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,570
I'm appealing to the church's
highest court, the Roman rota,

585
00:26:35,594 --> 00:26:38,040
but they're more likely
to agree to hear the case

586
00:26:38,064 --> 00:26:39,507
if you win this civil suit.

587
00:26:39,531 --> 00:26:42,534
And the civil suit needs
the church's sign-off.

588
00:26:43,235 --> 00:26:44,980
Quite the artisanal pickle.

589
00:26:45,004 --> 00:26:46,481
We just have to push forward

590
00:26:46,505 --> 00:26:48,150
when we present our case this week

591
00:26:48,174 --> 00:26:50,454
and focus on all the good
works you do for the community.

592
00:26:51,978 --> 00:26:53,588
We had to shut down the soup kitchen.

593
00:26:53,612 --> 00:26:55,257
Nobody can get through.

594
00:26:55,281 --> 00:26:57,392
Now they're actually keeping
you from feeding people?

595
00:26:57,416 --> 00:26:59,895
Forgive them, father, for
they know not what they do.

596
00:26:59,919 --> 00:27:01,930
You're really not angry?

597
00:27:01,954 --> 00:27:04,166
We reserve our anger
for the likes of Katy Perry.

598
00:27:05,424 --> 00:27:07,936
They're letting fear lead instead of love,

599
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,330
and if we don't forgive them,
we're doing the same thing.

600
00:27:12,598 --> 00:27:13,842
Where's Matty, by the way?

601
00:27:13,866 --> 00:27:15,911
Shultz is a power grabber,

602
00:27:15,935 --> 00:27:17,846
but he's trying to land U.S. steel,

603
00:27:17,870 --> 00:27:19,438
so he might not vote to oust senior

604
00:27:19,571 --> 00:27:22,084
because it'll make
the firm seem unstable.

605
00:27:22,108 --> 00:27:23,251
What do you think?

606
00:27:23,275 --> 00:27:25,644
I think if this week at home

607
00:27:25,745 --> 00:27:28,623
is going to extend to two weeks,

608
00:27:28,647 --> 00:27:30,316
you should help out
with some meal prep.

609
00:27:30,449 --> 00:27:33,152
- But...
- And don't do that thing

610
00:27:33,285 --> 00:27:34,863
where you pretend
that you're incompetent,

611
00:27:34,887 --> 00:27:38,366
I get frustrated and then I
do the whole thing myself.

612
00:27:38,390 --> 00:27:40,492
I appreciate how you see me.

613
00:27:40,626 --> 00:27:42,838
Partners for life, baby.

614
00:27:44,063 --> 00:27:45,874
Okay.

615
00:27:45,898 --> 00:27:48,634
Shultz versus la sky.

616
00:27:48,735 --> 00:27:52,114
Approach the wrong
person, we're busted.

617
00:27:52,138 --> 00:27:53,505
What do you think?

618
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,885
I think you might want
to reach out to Olympia,

619
00:27:56,909 --> 00:27:58,954
who knows these people.

620
00:27:58,978 --> 00:28:02,348
She's working on the case,
I'm working on the coup.

621
00:28:02,481 --> 00:28:03,682
We're giving each other space.

622
00:28:03,783 --> 00:28:05,517
Everyone benefits from a little space.

623
00:28:05,651 --> 00:28:08,287
You don't say.

624
00:28:09,088 --> 00:28:11,323
You know, I don't remember
you being in my way

625
00:28:11,457 --> 00:28:14,402
when we were home in San Francisco.

626
00:28:14,426 --> 00:28:15,627
Well, that's because

627
00:28:15,728 --> 00:28:18,164
Alfie was small, and I was busy with him.

628
00:28:18,297 --> 00:28:20,699
The great thing is, is we
have time to make a decision

629
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,335
on whom to approach, and
then we can have a real debate.

630
00:28:23,469 --> 00:28:25,371
Would you like to help
me fold while we debate?

631
00:28:25,504 --> 00:28:26,873
Yeah. Got it.

632
00:28:30,609 --> 00:28:34,689
To fold the laundry, you
must approach the laundry.

633
00:28:34,713 --> 00:28:37,383
- Edwin.
- What?

634
00:28:37,516 --> 00:28:39,995
Alfie's been keeping something from us.

635
00:28:46,525 --> 00:28:47,702
Hey.

636
00:28:47,726 --> 00:28:48,861
Hi.

637
00:28:48,995 --> 00:28:51,139
I-I thought you left for incognity.

638
00:28:51,163 --> 00:28:53,641
First order of business? Go digital.

639
00:28:53,665 --> 00:28:55,844
Incognity pushed the
meeting until tomorrow.

640
00:28:55,868 --> 00:29:00,172
And... I can't.

641
00:29:00,973 --> 00:29:05,320
It's stupid, but... Growing
up, I'd come to the office

642
00:29:05,344 --> 00:29:07,122
once in a while to visit my dad.

643
00:29:07,146 --> 00:29:09,691
He kept a datebook just like this.

644
00:29:09,715 --> 00:29:11,126
Always seemed full

645
00:29:11,150 --> 00:29:12,919
of the most important things in the world.

646
00:29:13,052 --> 00:29:16,555
So, bought my first one the
day I graduated law school.

647
00:29:17,423 --> 00:29:21,036
So... Aren't you gonna
ask me why they pushed

648
00:29:21,060 --> 00:29:22,304
the meeting until tomorrow?

649
00:29:23,695 --> 00:29:26,041
Why did they push the
meeting until tomorrow?

650
00:29:26,065 --> 00:29:30,678
Because they want their whole
executive committee to be there

651
00:29:30,702 --> 00:29:32,905
when they sign with Jacobson Moore.

652
00:29:33,039 --> 00:29:35,150
- Really?
- Really.

653
00:29:35,174 --> 00:29:37,986
Sarah, activate robot dance mode.

654
00:29:39,111 --> 00:29:41,580
Y2k. Execute funkiness.

655
00:29:41,713 --> 00:29:43,926
No way I'm doing that.

656
00:29:43,950 --> 00:29:46,494
Join in or face our wrath.

657
00:29:53,025 --> 00:29:57,472
So... Will you... Sort out
the contracts for filing?

658
00:29:57,496 --> 00:29:58,706
Beep, boop. Yep.

659
00:29:58,730 --> 00:30:01,609
That, and come with me?

660
00:30:01,633 --> 00:30:04,136
To build the relationship?

661
00:30:04,270 --> 00:30:07,473
Incognity will be lucky to
have a lawyer like you one day.

662
00:30:07,606 --> 00:30:08,975
Me?

663
00:30:09,108 --> 00:30:12,620
I'll be moving on from
Jacobson Moore, at some point,

664
00:30:12,644 --> 00:30:15,614
and, given my father's
"no poaching" policy,

665
00:30:15,747 --> 00:30:17,459
I'm not taking them with me, so...

666
00:30:17,483 --> 00:30:19,551
Let's make sure they get to know you.

667
00:30:22,154 --> 00:30:23,789
Grabbing the kids from basketball,

668
00:30:23,923 --> 00:30:26,268
we'll call you at bedtime.

669
00:30:26,292 --> 00:30:29,037
Fyi, introducing a new name.

670
00:30:29,061 --> 00:30:32,831
No longer "sad dad."
Going with "rad dad."

671
00:30:32,932 --> 00:30:34,142
You got incognity?

672
00:30:34,166 --> 00:30:35,477
Can I have Sarah back?

673
00:30:35,501 --> 00:30:36,778
You can.

674
00:30:36,802 --> 00:30:38,546
Nun case still tough going?

675
00:30:38,570 --> 00:30:40,382
Saw the ledger articles.

676
00:30:40,406 --> 00:30:43,218
I've got addiction experts
and a boatload of studies,

677
00:30:43,242 --> 00:30:45,677
but their side was so visceral.

678
00:30:45,811 --> 00:30:48,456
I can't figure out how to
sway emotion our way.

679
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,016
Matty's still out of the office?

680
00:30:51,683 --> 00:30:53,761
Sarah said Matty's
mom was an alcoholic.

681
00:30:53,785 --> 00:30:55,787
She's sensitive to addiction issues.

682
00:30:55,888 --> 00:30:57,365
That true?

683
00:30:57,389 --> 00:30:58,666
It is, yeah.

684
00:30:58,690 --> 00:31:01,593
But that's not the whole truth, right?

685
00:31:02,428 --> 00:31:04,796
It's my fault.

686
00:31:04,897 --> 00:31:06,808
Bringing up the fact that Matty

687
00:31:06,832 --> 00:31:08,676
took the photos from Mrs. Belvin's office,

688
00:31:08,700 --> 00:31:11,203
it damaged trust between you two.

689
00:31:11,337 --> 00:31:13,015
She should have been honest with me.

690
00:31:13,039 --> 00:31:15,908
True, but friends aren't soldiers.

691
00:31:17,609 --> 00:31:18,877
Straight talk...

692
00:31:20,146 --> 00:31:22,814
you are your father's daughter.

693
00:31:24,450 --> 00:31:28,263
Your father is apologizing
for not writing last week,

694
00:31:28,287 --> 00:31:30,865
but you showed us emails.

695
00:31:30,889 --> 00:31:32,391
I wrote them.

696
00:31:32,524 --> 00:31:34,169
I didn't want you to think he messed up,

697
00:31:34,193 --> 00:31:36,695
because you said he
has to get it all perfect.

698
00:31:36,828 --> 00:31:38,373
Darling,

699
00:31:38,397 --> 00:31:41,900
he's allowed to make
normal life kind of mistakes.

700
00:31:42,034 --> 00:31:44,579
He only has to be perfect in his sobriety.

701
00:31:44,603 --> 00:31:46,781
That's Olympia.

702
00:31:46,805 --> 00:31:48,407
She reached out.

703
00:31:48,540 --> 00:31:50,342
Probably wants to talk about the coup.

704
00:31:53,245 --> 00:31:56,724
- Okay.
- I need to say something.

705
00:31:56,748 --> 00:31:58,026
You lied to me for a year, so I'm allowed

706
00:31:58,050 --> 00:31:59,327
to be mad for a year if I want,

707
00:31:59,351 --> 00:32:00,886
because trust is important to me,

708
00:32:00,987 --> 00:32:03,031
and if what you said in your letter is true,

709
00:32:03,055 --> 00:32:05,067
about our friendship, then prove it

710
00:32:05,091 --> 00:32:07,102
and help me win this case
even if it's hard for you.

711
00:32:07,126 --> 00:32:08,860
- Well...
- Because forgiveness is hard.

712
00:32:08,961 --> 00:32:10,838
- I know...
- And if you say you want to earn it,

713
00:32:10,862 --> 00:32:12,431
then put in the work to earn it.

714
00:32:12,564 --> 00:32:15,034
Well, if you'd stop talking
for a second, I could say yes.

715
00:32:16,402 --> 00:32:17,912
Come on.

716
00:32:17,936 --> 00:32:21,216
We need to counter the
idea that by providing care,

717
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,718
the nuns are endangering
the community.

718
00:32:23,742 --> 00:32:25,111
What about la sky?

719
00:32:26,178 --> 00:32:28,114
To help with the nuns?

720
00:32:28,247 --> 00:32:31,283
Well, la sky went on
vacation with senior in 2012.

721
00:32:31,417 --> 00:32:33,061
And he doesn't like him
now, but I'm worried about

722
00:32:33,085 --> 00:32:35,254
residual loyalty.

723
00:32:35,387 --> 00:32:37,465
Okay.

724
00:32:37,489 --> 00:32:40,435
So, what if you argue

725
00:32:40,459 --> 00:32:43,471
that if Alyssa's overdose
happened in the church,

726
00:32:43,495 --> 00:32:45,740
no child could have seen
it from the playground.

727
00:32:45,764 --> 00:32:48,576
That won't counteract the
image in the mind of the judge.

728
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,078
Or the fact that a child saw.

729
00:32:50,102 --> 00:32:53,548
No, it won't, but this
is someone's child, too.

730
00:32:53,572 --> 00:32:55,917
We have to get the judge to feel that,

731
00:32:55,941 --> 00:32:58,753
and understand that
there are no good options.

732
00:32:58,777 --> 00:33:02,181
Say you're Alyssa, and you grow up...

733
00:33:03,015 --> 00:33:04,950
I mean, holy hell.

734
00:33:05,084 --> 00:33:07,286
If this isn't divine intervention.

735
00:33:08,454 --> 00:33:09,788
Look at her prior address.

736
00:33:09,921 --> 00:33:11,490
It's right by the church.

737
00:33:11,623 --> 00:33:14,302
The nuns didn't bring
danger into the community,

738
00:33:14,326 --> 00:33:15,970
Alyssa is the community.

739
00:33:15,994 --> 00:33:19,298
We need Alyssa to testify.
But how do we find her?

740
00:33:20,099 --> 00:33:23,369
Well, you've come to the right person.

741
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,985
Well, what's the really good news?

742
00:33:31,009 --> 00:33:33,388
Julian definitely isn't poaching clients,

743
00:33:33,412 --> 00:33:36,158
so whatever you heard is just a rumor.

744
00:33:36,182 --> 00:33:38,860
Well, thank you for sharing your opinion,

745
00:33:38,884 --> 00:33:40,652
which I did not ask for.

746
00:33:41,587 --> 00:33:45,233
What I did ask for were
photos of my son's datebook.

747
00:33:45,257 --> 00:33:47,059
Did you get that?

748
00:33:48,026 --> 00:33:49,695
No, I didn't.

749
00:33:49,828 --> 00:33:52,331
So it's not "really good news."

750
00:34:06,678 --> 00:34:08,679
You want some food?

751
00:34:08,780 --> 00:34:09,923
Water?

752
00:34:09,947 --> 00:34:12,184
Yeah. Thanks.

753
00:34:13,051 --> 00:34:15,329
- So, Alyssa?
- Lombardi.

754
00:34:15,353 --> 00:34:17,499
Alyssa lombardi. You said you knew her?

755
00:34:17,523 --> 00:34:20,359
I haven't seen her in a
while, but I have her number.

756
00:34:21,527 --> 00:34:24,530
Sorry, that guy has been following me.

757
00:34:24,663 --> 00:34:25,940
I know him, he's bad news.

758
00:34:25,964 --> 00:34:28,210
Can we talk in your car, do you think?

759
00:34:28,234 --> 00:34:29,735
Yeah. Get in.

760
00:34:35,741 --> 00:34:37,243
Somewhere we should go?

761
00:34:37,376 --> 00:34:38,753
The-the convent.

762
00:34:38,777 --> 00:34:40,021
Sometimes I go there,

763
00:34:40,045 --> 00:34:43,023
but all the protestors shut it down.

764
00:34:44,815 --> 00:34:46,461
I'm sorry, I have to use.

765
00:34:46,485 --> 00:34:48,554
- I have to...
- No, no, no. No, no. N-Not-not here.

766
00:34:48,687 --> 00:34:53,058
Yeah, okay, take my
phone, text Alyssa while I...

767
00:34:53,159 --> 00:34:54,869
You got to, you got to go.

768
00:34:54,893 --> 00:34:56,094
Okay.

769
00:34:56,228 --> 00:34:57,772
Yeah. Yeah, let me get out.

770
00:34:57,796 --> 00:34:59,974
- Give me my phone.
- No, don't.

771
00:34:59,998 --> 00:35:01,743
I have to do this.

772
00:35:01,767 --> 00:35:03,602
- I'll come back.
- Stay in the car.

773
00:35:03,735 --> 00:35:06,914
I have to... I understand.

774
00:35:06,938 --> 00:35:08,674
Stay in the car.

775
00:35:12,811 --> 00:35:14,246
Text Alyssa.

776
00:35:25,090 --> 00:35:27,835
My father was a military man.

777
00:35:27,859 --> 00:35:29,604
Think you know that.

778
00:35:29,628 --> 00:35:32,807
We used to move
every three years or so.

779
00:35:32,831 --> 00:35:37,779
New base, new school, new friends.

780
00:35:37,803 --> 00:35:41,349
He used to tell me that
I was his "little soldier."

781
00:35:41,373 --> 00:35:43,141
Tough.

782
00:35:43,242 --> 00:35:45,277
"You'll take the good ones with you."

783
00:35:46,945 --> 00:35:53,018
He also said that, "if anyone
betrays you, move on."

784
00:35:56,788 --> 00:35:59,491
I even cut my own mother off.

785
00:36:00,392 --> 00:36:02,770
So, this trust thing, Matty...

786
00:36:02,794 --> 00:36:05,531
- It runs deep.
- Real deep.

787
00:36:11,437 --> 00:36:14,782
But I have to move past it,

788
00:36:14,806 --> 00:36:16,984
so that I don't keep losing the...

789
00:36:17,008 --> 00:36:19,845
Things that are most important to me.

790
00:36:46,638 --> 00:36:48,883
Are you sure you can do this?

791
00:36:48,907 --> 00:36:50,309
I can do this.

792
00:36:53,779 --> 00:36:56,682
Alyssa, is that you,
overdosing in this video?

793
00:36:56,815 --> 00:36:58,350
It is. Yes.

794
00:36:59,150 --> 00:37:01,629
When did your addiction start?

795
00:37:01,653 --> 00:37:03,164
Fourteen.

796
00:37:03,188 --> 00:37:05,833
By the time I was 17, my
parents had thrown me out.

797
00:37:05,857 --> 00:37:07,935
Where were you living?

798
00:37:07,959 --> 00:37:09,328
Before they kicked you out.

799
00:37:09,461 --> 00:37:11,162
60th and Putnam.

800
00:37:11,297 --> 00:37:13,441
Two blocks from the convent.

801
00:37:13,465 --> 00:37:15,410
So, you were brought
up in the neighborhood?

802
00:37:15,434 --> 00:37:17,679
- I was.
- What brought you back?

803
00:37:17,703 --> 00:37:20,171
I had been living in Philly. Struggling.

804
00:37:20,272 --> 00:37:22,550
I thought being closer
to home would help.

805
00:37:22,574 --> 00:37:25,653
Let's talk about the day of your overdose.

806
00:37:25,677 --> 00:37:29,857
I had been sober two months,
so my tolerance was lower.

807
00:37:29,881 --> 00:37:31,550
I used the old amount.

808
00:37:31,683 --> 00:37:34,429
That's what happened to me.

809
00:37:34,453 --> 00:37:39,567
I was sober, and I slipped,
and my tolerance was lower.

810
00:37:39,591 --> 00:37:41,259
If I had been in the park, I'd be dead.

811
00:37:42,127 --> 00:37:44,372
But I was near the convent.

812
00:37:44,396 --> 00:37:47,232
And sister bennie came out with narcan.

813
00:37:47,333 --> 00:37:50,235
There was no one there for me.

814
00:37:52,203 --> 00:37:54,949
And was that your last time using?

815
00:37:54,973 --> 00:37:56,183
No.

816
00:37:56,207 --> 00:37:59,421
But... I'm back in recovery now.

817
00:37:59,445 --> 00:38:01,823
And I'm gonna try again.

818
00:38:01,847 --> 00:38:04,125
I got another chance to try again.

819
00:38:04,149 --> 00:38:08,730
Another chance to see my son grow up.

820
00:38:08,754 --> 00:38:11,165
And my parents grow old.

821
00:38:11,189 --> 00:38:14,059
To sing karaoke...

822
00:38:14,826 --> 00:38:17,896
I get another chance
to do it all differently.

823
00:38:19,365 --> 00:38:22,209
Now, if we are really
worried about public safety,

824
00:38:22,233 --> 00:38:25,103
what could be a bigger
threat than stopping

825
00:38:25,236 --> 00:38:29,074
a program that is saving
community members' lives?

826
00:38:30,776 --> 00:38:32,744
I got the photos you asked for.

827
00:38:33,579 --> 00:38:35,246
Good job.

828
00:38:35,347 --> 00:38:37,783
Was beginning to think
all that talk about ambition

829
00:38:37,916 --> 00:38:40,619
was just hot air.

830
00:38:40,752 --> 00:38:43,254
You can go.

831
00:38:51,062 --> 00:38:53,298
A beaut.

832
00:38:54,099 --> 00:38:55,276
Hi. Yay.

833
00:38:55,300 --> 00:38:56,944
Baby's kicking like crazy.

834
00:38:56,968 --> 00:38:59,447
- Yeah?
- Yeah, look. Knows I'm excited.

835
00:38:59,471 --> 00:39:02,273
Because I was talking

836
00:39:02,374 --> 00:39:05,411
to my mom and I had a revelation.

837
00:39:06,678 --> 00:39:08,358
Billy, I don't care about getting married.

838
00:39:08,447 --> 00:39:12,150
Seriously, it's caused both
of us so much stress and pain.

839
00:39:12,283 --> 00:39:14,028
And I have faith in us,
married or not married.

840
00:39:14,052 --> 00:39:15,196
- So...
- Claudia.

841
00:39:15,220 --> 00:39:17,823
I do want us to get married.

842
00:39:17,956 --> 00:39:19,324
Thank god.

843
00:39:19,458 --> 00:39:21,993
We were always meant to be a family.

844
00:39:22,761 --> 00:39:24,872
Well, I've been told by those in the know

845
00:39:24,896 --> 00:39:27,609
that god puts the right people around you

846
00:39:27,633 --> 00:39:30,301
so you don't stay broken forever.

847
00:39:30,402 --> 00:39:32,279
Just give it to us straight.

848
00:39:32,303 --> 00:39:34,315
The judge issued her ruling.

849
00:39:34,339 --> 00:39:36,751
She found Alyssa's
testimony compelling,

850
00:39:36,775 --> 00:39:39,821
but safety concerns outweighed it.

851
00:39:39,845 --> 00:39:42,023
The harm reduction part of
your program will be shut down,

852
00:39:42,047 --> 00:39:45,292
but your homeless
outreach can continue.

853
00:39:45,316 --> 00:39:47,328
And the church backed off eviction,

854
00:39:47,352 --> 00:39:50,556
as long as there's no drug
use on church property.

855
00:39:51,523 --> 00:39:54,359
Sometimes, his signs are clear.

856
00:39:59,064 --> 00:40:03,502
The lord called us to
minister to those on the streets.

857
00:40:03,635 --> 00:40:05,504
It seems to be the
moment to take our ministry

858
00:40:05,637 --> 00:40:06,981
to the streets.

859
00:40:07,005 --> 00:40:09,150
- What does that mean?
- We'll leave the convent

860
00:40:09,174 --> 00:40:11,085
in the capable hands of our sisters.

861
00:40:11,109 --> 00:40:12,353
You're leaving the church?

862
00:40:12,377 --> 00:40:14,546
Matthew 18:20.

863
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,516
Jesus said, "for where two or three"

864
00:40:17,649 --> 00:40:19,260
"are gathered together in my name,

865
00:40:19,284 --> 00:40:21,219
there am I in the midst of them."

866
00:40:21,352 --> 00:40:23,965
And look at that. One, two, three of us.

867
00:40:25,524 --> 00:40:30,071
Well, sisterhood is a powerful thing.

868
00:40:30,095 --> 00:40:31,362
It sure is.

869
00:40:31,463 --> 00:40:35,066
Well, we should let the others know.

870
00:40:36,334 --> 00:40:39,213
- So, did you talk to Alfie?
- Yeah.

871
00:40:39,237 --> 00:40:41,949
I told him his father
doesn't have to be perfect

872
00:40:41,973 --> 00:40:43,184
in his sobriety.

873
00:40:43,208 --> 00:40:45,286
Just has to be committing to trying.

874
00:40:45,310 --> 00:40:47,479
Look at that mountain moving.

875
00:40:49,214 --> 00:40:50,749
It's Eva.

876
00:40:50,882 --> 00:40:52,627
Calling about the coup.

877
00:40:52,651 --> 00:40:54,562
We just don't have that last vote.

878
00:40:54,586 --> 00:40:55,854
About that...

879
00:40:56,655 --> 00:40:58,557
I'm just trying to get this doc review done

880
00:40:58,690 --> 00:41:01,727
for the priest-lawyer-emeritus guy.

881
00:41:01,860 --> 00:41:04,429
Partners for life, baby.

882
00:41:04,530 --> 00:41:06,373
Well, we should let the others know.

883
00:41:06,397 --> 00:41:08,710
And I should get to the airport.

884
00:41:08,734 --> 00:41:10,602
- Sisters. Well...
- Thank you, father.

885
00:41:12,871 --> 00:41:14,749
One last question, father.

886
00:41:14,773 --> 00:41:19,745
How would you feel about a
good old testament smiting?

887
00:41:20,646 --> 00:41:24,592
Cassidy still has partner emeritus status.

888
00:41:24,616 --> 00:41:27,729
Partners emeriti still retain voting power.

889
00:41:27,753 --> 00:41:28,863
He's our last vote?

890
00:41:28,887 --> 00:41:31,422
Said it was his god-given duty.

891
00:41:32,257 --> 00:41:35,293
So, we're really doing this?

892
00:41:35,426 --> 00:41:36,638
Prayers up.

893
00:41:36,662 --> 00:41:38,005
Amen, sister.
