Stonemore authorized us

to make you
a settlement offer.

I did it because
I saw an opportunity.

Angela: I accidentally flirted
with her husband,

and I really want
to apologize.

Cruz just opened
a bottle of wine.

I would hate for him
to have to drink it alone.

Grady:
Nice seeing you jealous.

It's kind of like
the old days.

You were fierce if
I looked at anybody else.

I'm still fierce.

Mark: I offered
a settlement.

I need them to accept it.

Understood.

Within the hour, sir.

A-And again, sir,

Are you firing him?

I'm not firing him.
He's resigning.

I'm guessing you haven't
checked your email?

I have, but he says
he didn't send it.

-Doesn't matter who sent it.
-Doesn't matter who sent it.

It went from my email address

I'm resigning,

Can't save his job, but the
rehab might save his reputation.

-Good luck, Luke.

Wait a minute.

Dad? Dad.

Excuse me.

Hi, can you...?
Thank you.

Listen, he is the victim
of revenge porn.

If you let him
just crawl away

and resign in shame
to some rehab he doesn't need,

what precedent
are you setting?

Julian, Rebel,
it's good to see you.

No deal unless
Mark Duncan agrees

to pull that valve
off the market.

Annie, we're still
standing in the lobby.

Oops. Did I forget the small

Life's short, gentlemen.
Get to the point.

Can you please just
let me do what I do?

Cassidy: Benji.

All due respect, I am not
finished with our conversation.

But I am.

Cruz is here to discuss
the Stonemore settlement,

which takes precedent
over Luke's personal life.

I apologize for the email
you received this morning.

That associate
no longer works for me.

Oh, that's too bad.

From what I could see,
he was quite an asset.

Mom, ew.

Dad, he does still work here,
because if he's fired,

I'll quit and represent him
in his lawsuit against you.

Cassidy, you know what?
Just...

Cruz, follow me,
will you?

She is irritating.
Relentless.

It's not just her.
It's the entire generation.

They do not
know their place.

They refuse
to know their place.

Refusing to know
our place

is how we fix the stuff
y'all broke.

[ Sighs ]

Your friend's
in trouble, huh?

It was revenge porn, and
Benji's forcing him to resign.

Well, that's not right.

That's what I said.

Hmm.

Don't be too proud
to ask your mother for help,

because I am way too stubborn
just to offer it.

Fine.

Mother,
will you please help?

Luke?

Mm. Impressive.

Reminds me of Tiger,
the early years.

You can do better?
Have at it.

Stonemore recalls the valve,
takes it off the market,

and you have a deal.

Mm.

Sorry, man.

According to Mark Duncan,
that's a non-starter.

How about
a phased removal?

Nope.

Listen, real talk?

Counter on the money.

Aim high.

He's got deep pockets,

and he wants this thing
to go away quietly.

Ah.

Well, my clients want
the valve recalled --

at least temporarily.

Your clients
are sick in America,

which means
they need money.

You tell Duncan
to pull it, study it.

If we're wrong
and he can prove it,

it goes
back on the market.

It's a non-starter, man.
It's not gonna happen.

What's gonna happen
is you settle

or I make you chase me
through the courts for years.

All that money
Duncan is prepared

to hand your clients
to go away?

He's also prepared
to give it to me to fight you.

I broke up with her.

two years ago now.

She trashed his reputation
and his job,

which doesn't exactly lead
to an increased income.[ Laughter ]

Sounds more like revenge
than extortion.

Well, yeah,
apart from the threats.

Also not a great poet.

What's on
tape number two, Luke?

I mean, we were long-distance

We kept in touch

So I don't know
what tape number two is,

it's a bit more graphic.

which will only make
her odds of survival worse.

The hospital.

They're denying
Helen's surgery.

♪

The patient's
insurance company

sees no evidence
her valve is failing.

I'm aware,
but I've shown them evidence

that her liver
is failing.

It's great research benefit
for the hospital,

and I've already agreed
to do the surgery pro bono.

That leaves hospital costs,
which are still substantial.

Can't you just send her a bill
after the fact?

$143,000.15.

That's how much Ms. Peterson
currently owes us

for copayments
and procedures

her insurance company
refused to pay.

The hospital did bill her
after the fact.

But with her current
payment plan,

it'll be over 100 years before
she can pay off that debt.

She'll die.

Without this surgery today,
this woman will die.

Do you want to live with that
on your conscience?

I work in hospital
administration, Ms. Bello.

multiple people die

because they can't afford
the care that they need.

So for my own well-being,

I choose to dedicate
my conscience elsewhere.

when you first opened
that video,

and when you realized
it had gone out wide

to all your peers
and colleagues,

what was
your first thought?

to send the equivalent
of a pornographic video

to my peers
and colleagues, okay?

humiliating email

that says, "Hey, guys.

[ Laughs ] T-There's probably
not a problem here.

of a problem.

But we're pulling our
best-selling, life-saving valve

off the market to study it
really carefully.

And when we determine that
there's absolutely no problem,

we'll let you know,
and we'll put it back out there

for you to put
in people's bodies."

All they will read in that email
is, "problem, problem, problem"!

They will never
recommend it again.

The answer is no.

And it's not no because
I am some evil corporate bastard

who likes to murder people
for fun and profit.

The answer is no because heart
conditions run in my family.

I grew up watching
people I love suffer.

with me past the age of 40

without getting winded.

I got into this business to help
people like him, and I have.

what you're talking about.

-Luke seems to think you do.
-Mm.

He says you asked him
for a loan,

and when he turned you down,
you started issuing threats.

Well, Luke here --

He came here to go to law
school, and I stayed in London.

And then Luke decided
he didn't want to come home,

so he asked me
to move here with him,

so I shut down
my whole entire life in the UK.

And then when I got here,

Luke decided
he didn't want me anymore.

you turned up

with a satchel
full of baby clothes

and paint swatches
-for a nursery!
-Oh, oh, that is not fair!

You said -- And I --It was an ambush!

-I --

And then I did whatever

I tried to get him back.

And when I stopped being a twit,
my fiancée visa ran out,

and I developed a liking
for sunny weather.

Yeah. So my lawyer says

that my best option
is to get a business visa.

So I need a business.

And the yoga studio's
for sale.

And I do not
consider this a loan.

I consider it
what he owes me.

You sent it to judges, Tam --
to judges!

I mean, my career
may never recover!

Well, you should have
thought about that, Luke,

before you wasted
the best years of my life.

So you did send the video.

What?

I mean, yeah,

I'm not gonna be able to help
you with anything ever again.

I mean, I won't even be able

And then
what would you have to do?

Would you
have to move home?

Would you have to live
in the constant fear

of that happening to you?

Because that's what
you're putting me through.

Okay, listen, lady.

You need to decide
what you're really after here.

Now, either you want money,
or you want revenge.

I want both.

And I will get it,

I'll present it to my clients,

Uh, since you're here,

how about giving us
some unredacted discovery,

You cannot

It is unethical for me

There are tones of voice.

"Tones of voice"?

You can't use any words

to suggest that they should
or shouldn't settle,

because then they can come back
and sue you later.

However, you are a master
of tones of voice

at pushing them in one direction
or the other.

which, at this point,
is basically nothing.

W-Who's Flynn?

Cassidy: My brother's dad.
He's a cop.

No, no.
If you have her arrested,

she'll just use
her one phone call from jail

to dial a friend and have
her friend send the damn tapes.

is straight-up sociopath.

She's not a sociopath.
She's just -- She's tireless.

I mean, she's always been
tireless. And driven.

It's a quality
I fell in love with

when I was young
and rudderless.

I mean, she put me on the path
to becoming a lawyer.

She helped me with
my college applications,

my law school
applications.

It's just, she's --
she's relentless

when she wants something
for herself or for someone else.

So putting her in jail
is just gonna do two things.

One, it's gonna make her
hate me more,

and, two, it's gonna
make me hate myself.

'Cause the fact is, I...

I do owe her.
I owe her a lot.

Yeah, I'm not saying
I'm not furious, alright?

I'm just saying, I'm --
I'm not out for revenge.

I just want it to stop now
before it gets any worse.

Fine, fine. She has
half a million followers,

and it looks like her brand
is power yoga and feminism.

No,

And they're just allowed to hit
us with boxes full of garbage?

How much does Cruz

Seriously, Mom, this is
how our justice system works?

Now you understand why sometimes
I work just outside of it.

God. What's gonna happen

and all of them?

Are they just
supposed to wait years

for us
to sort through this crap?

I miss your Aunt Sharon.

She's the one
I would call

if I was feeling really stuck
or scared or broken

or didn't know
how to handle Cruz.

She's -- She's the one

and she'd always give me
the best advice.

Her voice was always so
comforting, and not just for me.

I know. To everyone.
[ Sighs ]

And now Cruz is on a lunch date
with another woman,

and I have a terrible feeling
about it

even though it was
entirely my doing.

And, I don't know, maybe it's --
maybe it's just because

Helen right now looks so much
like Sharon did in the end.

And I -- And I want
to save her life,

and I don't know
how to pay for it,

and I, uh --
I don't have Sharon to call.

I can't even

Stonemore is now offering
$300 million,

Well,
if Luke were a woman,

her with disciplinary action.
