1
00:00:03,674 --> 00:00:07,507
My name is George Henry Bell, and...
2
00:00:08,234 --> 00:00:10,726
on the night of October 15th...
3
00:00:11,901 --> 00:00:14,328
I killed Tess Androde.
4
00:00:15,759 --> 00:00:19,220
I was her teacher,
but we were also friends.
5
00:00:20,659 --> 00:00:22,516
We'd argued earlier that day,
6
00:00:22,541 --> 00:00:24,907
but that night when I...
7
00:00:25,711 --> 00:00:28,489
ran into her at the diner,
things seemed better.
8
00:00:29,202 --> 00:00:31,700
She said she needed a ride home,
9
00:00:31,725 --> 00:00:34,160
so I told her I'd take her.
10
00:00:35,171 --> 00:00:37,106
And once we were in the car,
11
00:00:38,131 --> 00:00:40,376
we started fighting again, and...
12
00:00:42,198 --> 00:00:45,415
before I knew it, my hands
were around her neck, and...
13
00:00:48,133 --> 00:00:50,149
I was just squeezing...
14
00:00:51,557 --> 00:00:54,110
and squeezing and squeezing.
15
00:00:57,975 --> 00:00:59,384
And...
16
00:01:01,750 --> 00:01:04,920
when I finally let go,
she was dead in my hands.
17
00:01:18,860 --> 00:01:20,040
Coming!
18
00:01:23,326 --> 00:01:25,295
Oh, good morning. Linda.
19
00:01:25,320 --> 00:01:26,888
Elijah.
20
00:01:26,913 --> 00:01:28,735
We haven't seen you around much,
21
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,235
and, well, I know you're busy,
22
00:01:30,260 --> 00:01:33,321
so I thought neighbors help neighbors.
23
00:01:33,557 --> 00:01:35,431
It's just a little
something I whipped up.
24
00:01:35,456 --> 00:01:38,212
Mac and cheese... with brisket...
25
00:01:38,237 --> 00:01:41,931
and Béchamel sauce,
and andouille sausage.
26
00:01:41,956 --> 00:01:43,579
Oh. Very kind of you.
27
00:01:46,246 --> 00:01:47,494
You know, I would invite you in,
28
00:01:47,518 --> 00:01:49,446
but I gotta get to the office.
29
00:01:49,471 --> 00:01:52,149
Oh, yeah. All work and no play.
30
00:01:53,188 --> 00:01:54,756
Don't be a stranger.
31
00:01:54,781 --> 00:01:56,283
And...
32
00:01:56,308 --> 00:01:59,009
and if there's anything I can do...
33
00:01:59,993 --> 00:02:01,595
Thank you, Linda.
34
00:02:04,940 --> 00:02:06,095
Ellie Tomkins.
35
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,376
- Linda Holland.
- Linda Holland?
36
00:02:08,401 --> 00:02:09,401
Whoo!
37
00:02:09,426 --> 00:02:11,931
Memphis wolves are on the prowl.
38
00:02:11,956 --> 00:02:15,056
Oh, Della, come on. It's a...
It's a casserole.
39
00:02:15,081 --> 00:02:17,353
Sometimes a casserole
is just a casserole.
40
00:02:17,378 --> 00:02:20,610
Sometimes it's a whole
other kind of dish.
41
00:02:20,635 --> 00:02:21,954
Ooh.
42
00:02:21,979 --> 00:02:23,345
Hey, thanks for this.
43
00:02:23,370 --> 00:02:25,704
You don't have to thank me,
but if you want to pay me back,
44
00:02:25,729 --> 00:02:28,360
I can take Connie Becker's shrimp
and grits off your hands.
45
00:02:28,385 --> 00:02:30,048
Not a chance.
46
00:02:30,799 --> 00:02:32,947
- See you later.
- See you later.
47
00:02:33,871 --> 00:02:35,455
Pimento cheese and honey?
48
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,580
I'm telling you, this is a Memphis...
49
00:02:37,605 --> 00:02:38,606
- ... Memphis tr...
- I don't believe it.
50
00:02:38,630 --> 00:02:40,236
- ... tradition.
- I don't believe it.
51
00:02:40,442 --> 00:02:42,986
Sydney, can I borrow you for a minute?
52
00:02:44,105 --> 00:02:45,877
No. Mm-mm.
53
00:02:45,902 --> 00:02:47,097
Ugh!
54
00:02:47,852 --> 00:02:49,188
When I finally let go,
55
00:02:49,213 --> 00:02:51,088
she was dead in my hands.
56
00:02:52,536 --> 00:02:55,424
I know that he's innocent, and
I would still vote to convict him.
57
00:02:55,449 --> 00:02:57,478
Why did he confess, anyway?
58
00:02:57,503 --> 00:02:59,814
Well, he'd been in prison
for a number of years.
59
00:02:59,839 --> 00:03:01,074
All his appeals had failed,
60
00:03:01,099 --> 00:03:02,634
his wife's life was falling apart.
61
00:03:02,659 --> 00:03:04,010
So he lied...
62
00:03:04,698 --> 00:03:06,236
so that she could move on.
63
00:03:06,631 --> 00:03:09,118
Well, unfortunately,
he did a really good job of it.
64
00:03:09,143 --> 00:03:11,141
Yes, he... he did.
65
00:03:11,166 --> 00:03:12,915
Jake, you have to get him
released based on the DNA
66
00:03:12,939 --> 00:03:14,885
because if you try for a retrial...
67
00:03:14,910 --> 00:03:16,197
I'll lose,
68
00:03:16,550 --> 00:03:19,439
and George will spend
another 25 years in prison.
69
00:03:21,126 --> 00:03:23,012
Hey, I made that list of cases
70
00:03:23,037 --> 00:03:25,361
where confessions given
post-conviction were thrown out.
71
00:03:26,105 --> 00:03:27,791
Emerson, this is amazing.
72
00:03:29,146 --> 00:03:30,377
You are amazing.
73
00:03:30,809 --> 00:03:32,080
Isn't he amazing?
74
00:03:32,646 --> 00:03:34,713
Yes. Great. Amazing.
75
00:03:34,750 --> 00:03:38,674
I have a client, so I'm just
gonna go and talk to him.
76
00:03:38,699 --> 00:03:39,699
- Oh, jeez.
- Sorry.
77
00:03:39,724 --> 00:03:41,564
Nope, that's okay. Go ahead.
78
00:03:44,545 --> 00:03:45,771
- What?
- Nothing.
79
00:03:45,796 --> 00:03:47,540
That was a beautiful
moment you just shared.
80
00:03:47,565 --> 00:03:48,717
Could you just cut me
some slack, please?
81
00:03:48,741 --> 00:03:49,933
Could you just do that, maybe?
82
00:03:49,957 --> 00:03:51,308
I think you should cut him some slack.
83
00:03:51,332 --> 00:03:52,705
I mean, he is your brother.
84
00:03:52,949 --> 00:03:54,377
He's not my brother.
85
00:03:54,912 --> 00:03:56,728
Okay, I'm sorry. He's your half-brother,
86
00:03:56,753 --> 00:03:58,963
but all I'm saying is, he is new,
87
00:03:59,329 --> 00:04:02,900
and you're you, so why don't you just...
88
00:04:02,925 --> 00:04:06,603
you know, do something nice
and prove everyone wrong.
89
00:04:06,628 --> 00:04:09,018
Wow... what did... What does that mean?
90
00:04:09,043 --> 00:04:10,658
That's... that's...
91
00:04:11,471 --> 00:04:13,182
You know, if you just think that...
92
00:04:13,207 --> 00:04:15,986
Ah, the silver tongue of Sydney Strait.
93
00:04:16,011 --> 00:04:17,603
Still as eloquent as ever.
94
00:04:17,628 --> 00:04:18,978
Professor Marshall.
95
00:04:19,003 --> 00:04:21,814
You are 10 minutes early.
96
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,736
10 minutes early is on time, of course,
97
00:04:23,761 --> 00:04:26,658
assuming you remember anything
from my legal theory seminar.
98
00:04:26,683 --> 00:04:29,127
- Yes, sir.
- I see your classmate does.
99
00:04:29,980 --> 00:04:31,688
Tell me, does that rivalry still exist
100
00:04:31,722 --> 00:04:32,978
between the two of you?
101
00:04:33,151 --> 00:04:34,627
- What? No, no, we...
- Good.
102
00:04:34,660 --> 00:04:36,003
I'm counting on it
to bring out your best.
103
00:04:36,027 --> 00:04:37,244
- Mm-hmm.
- Shall we?
104
00:04:37,269 --> 00:04:39,275
Yes, you go right in,
105
00:04:39,300 --> 00:04:41,135
and I will be in in just one second.
106
00:04:42,941 --> 00:04:44,277
Lunch.
107
00:04:45,212 --> 00:04:46,515
- Sure.
- Tomorrow?
108
00:04:46,540 --> 00:04:47,908
- Great.
- Great.
109
00:04:47,933 --> 00:04:49,369
Good.
110
00:04:50,663 --> 00:04:52,822
So, Professor, how's your son?
111
00:04:52,847 --> 00:04:54,198
He should be out of college by now.
112
00:04:54,222 --> 00:04:56,416
You think I'm here to socialize.
113
00:04:56,441 --> 00:04:59,775
"Varnum v. Brien.",
"Loving v. Virginia."
114
00:05:00,235 --> 00:05:03,861
It's possible this case
may one day join those
115
00:05:03,886 --> 00:05:05,752
in the pantheon of civil rights history.
116
00:05:05,777 --> 00:05:07,814
Well, we are honored
that you thought of us.
117
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,221
Honored and humbled.
118
00:05:09,246 --> 00:05:11,744
Oh, please.
False modesty is beneath you.
119
00:05:11,769 --> 00:05:12,908
You're the best.
120
00:05:12,933 --> 00:05:15,533
I know that because I taught you.
121
00:05:15,558 --> 00:05:17,768
Separated in the end by, what...
122
00:05:18,035 --> 00:05:19,588
3/10 of a grade point?
123
00:05:19,613 --> 00:05:21,291
- 4/10.
- 2/10.
124
00:05:21,316 --> 00:05:23,697
There has been an injustice,
125
00:05:23,722 --> 00:05:27,447
a grievous injustice
that must be addressed,
126
00:05:27,472 --> 00:05:31,650
lest the fabric of our nation
tear under the weight of it.
127
00:05:33,116 --> 00:05:35,768
Are you two aware of online dating?
128
00:05:37,689 --> 00:05:39,502
- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah, of course.
129
00:05:39,527 --> 00:05:42,916
I spent $5,000...
130
00:05:43,409 --> 00:05:47,119
on a premiere site offering
the very best of matching.
131
00:05:47,144 --> 00:05:49,971
I'd like to sue them,
because they insist
132
00:05:49,996 --> 00:05:53,037
on listing my age as 62 instead of 42.
133
00:05:53,062 --> 00:05:54,943
But you are 62.
134
00:05:54,968 --> 00:05:57,153
Think for a moment.
135
00:05:57,178 --> 00:05:59,771
If I'm forced to use my biological age,
136
00:05:59,796 --> 00:06:02,216
I will be matched with
candidates who do not suit me.
137
00:06:02,241 --> 00:06:04,326
So you want to sue so you can say
138
00:06:04,351 --> 00:06:05,982
you're younger to meet younger women?
139
00:06:06,007 --> 00:06:07,876
I run 30 miles a week.
140
00:06:07,901 --> 00:06:10,966
I consume all organic foods.
I treat my body like a temple.
141
00:06:10,991 --> 00:06:12,045
Ask my doctor.
142
00:06:12,070 --> 00:06:14,279
He'll tell you I'm as
fit as a 40-year-old.
143
00:06:14,304 --> 00:06:17,693
Professor, this lawsuit
feels like a bit of...
144
00:06:19,566 --> 00:06:21,599
- A reach.
- Is this a reach?
145
00:06:21,624 --> 00:06:25,123
I identify as 42,
146
00:06:25,148 --> 00:06:27,662
because that way of labeling
has gone the way of the dodo,
147
00:06:27,687 --> 00:06:29,896
exposed as limiting and biased.
148
00:06:29,921 --> 00:06:31,045
Well, socially, maybe,
149
00:06:31,070 --> 00:06:32,716
but in terms of
the law, we still have...
150
00:06:32,741 --> 00:06:36,459
In fact, it's still very difficult
to legally change gender.
151
00:06:36,484 --> 00:06:38,529
A lawsuit claiming a
different age is gonna be...
152
00:06:38,554 --> 00:06:40,090
If I knew it was gonna be easy,
153
00:06:40,115 --> 00:06:43,119
I would've gone to my third
and fourth best students.
154
00:06:43,144 --> 00:06:44,813
Now do you want to see these,
155
00:06:44,838 --> 00:06:46,708
or shall I go to them?
156
00:06:49,602 --> 00:06:54,037
Synced & corrected by QueenMaddie
www.addic7ed.com
157
00:06:54,624 --> 00:06:57,654
Your Honor, the DA's office has reviewed
158
00:06:57,679 --> 00:06:59,248
Mr. Reilly's request,
159
00:06:59,273 --> 00:07:01,631
and after careful consideration,
160
00:07:01,656 --> 00:07:03,170
we reject it entirely.
161
00:07:03,195 --> 00:07:06,021
- What?
- May not be Mr. Bell's DNA,
162
00:07:06,046 --> 00:07:08,100
but we still have the
unimpeached testimony
163
00:07:08,125 --> 00:07:09,396
of multiple witnesses,
164
00:07:09,421 --> 00:07:12,926
we have Mr. Bell's discredited
attempt at an alibi,
165
00:07:12,951 --> 00:07:16,279
and we have the videotape
confession made
166
00:07:16,304 --> 00:07:18,240
at Mr. Bell's request.
167
00:07:18,265 --> 00:07:20,693
Therefore, his conviction should stand.
168
00:07:20,718 --> 00:07:22,120
If I may?
169
00:07:23,794 --> 00:07:26,764
When George Bell was convicted,
170
00:07:27,102 --> 00:07:29,805
their whole case was DNA.
171
00:07:29,987 --> 00:07:31,896
There was no confession then.
172
00:07:31,921 --> 00:07:34,850
He hadn't... rotted in prison.
173
00:07:35,768 --> 00:07:38,365
Hadn't lost his family.
Hadn't lost his hope.
174
00:07:39,527 --> 00:07:42,162
And now we know that that DNA,
that DNA was flawed.
175
00:07:42,187 --> 00:07:43,826
So everything, including his confession,
176
00:07:43,851 --> 00:07:46,834
that can be explained by circumstance.
177
00:07:47,396 --> 00:07:50,592
But the DNA, it tells all,
178
00:07:50,617 --> 00:07:53,256
and it is not George Bell's.
179
00:07:54,147 --> 00:07:56,912
We've taken 25 years
of his life, Your Honor.
180
00:07:56,937 --> 00:07:58,482
25 years.
181
00:07:59,174 --> 00:08:01,334
Let's not take another day from him.
182
00:08:07,867 --> 00:08:09,569
I believe Mr. Reilly has established
183
00:08:09,594 --> 00:08:11,920
that the most important piece
of the State's original case,
184
00:08:11,945 --> 00:08:14,365
the DNA, is not that of his client.
185
00:08:16,683 --> 00:08:20,621
I don't think that this piece
alone exonerates Mr. Bell,
186
00:08:20,717 --> 00:08:22,959
but I do believe it merits a new trial.
187
00:08:23,152 --> 00:08:24,821
So Ms. Cain...
188
00:08:24,846 --> 00:08:26,943
you think he did,
you're gonna have to prove it.
189
00:08:27,146 --> 00:08:28,341
All right.
190
00:08:29,696 --> 00:08:31,670
Wait, what? A new trial?
191
00:08:31,695 --> 00:08:33,271
We got a new trial.
192
00:08:35,136 --> 00:08:36,623
I'll be right there, George.
193
00:08:37,041 --> 00:08:38,873
- You're really gonna fight this.
- Why?
194
00:08:38,903 --> 00:08:42,193
Your client murdered a 16-year-old girl.
195
00:08:42,218 --> 00:08:44,068
I'm not gonna have some
hotshot waltz in here
196
00:08:44,093 --> 00:08:46,128
and get him off on a technicality.
197
00:08:46,153 --> 00:08:47,623
You may have some blood work,
198
00:08:47,648 --> 00:08:49,724
but I have that confession.
199
00:08:49,749 --> 00:08:53,123
I have the really George Bell,
and the jury's gonna see him.
200
00:08:59,701 --> 00:09:01,312
You should've known that
you were never gonna
201
00:09:01,336 --> 00:09:03,871
get that conviction tossed, Jake.
202
00:09:03,904 --> 00:09:05,162
You're probably right.
203
00:09:05,187 --> 00:09:07,295
No, I'm definitely right.
204
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,013
Well, in any case,
205
00:09:10,038 --> 00:09:12,646
now I go to trial, criminal trial,
206
00:09:12,671 --> 00:09:16,225
of which I've done exactly
zero of in the last six years,
207
00:09:16,250 --> 00:09:18,873
and one in which my
client has confessed...
208
00:09:19,612 --> 00:09:21,381
very convincingly.
209
00:09:22,498 --> 00:09:24,968
Give me the pillars of the state's case,
210
00:09:24,993 --> 00:09:26,670
without the DNA evidence.
211
00:09:26,695 --> 00:09:27,857
Uh...
212
00:09:29,152 --> 00:09:31,834
Eyewitness testimony
of victim's best friend.
213
00:09:31,859 --> 00:09:34,074
Said that George and
the victim were close,
214
00:09:34,099 --> 00:09:36,672
that they fought,
and that she was afraid of him.
215
00:09:36,697 --> 00:09:38,899
And then you have the victim's mother.
216
00:09:38,924 --> 00:09:40,848
Testified that George
never dropped her off
217
00:09:40,873 --> 00:09:43,820
at home that night, even though
he swears that he did.
218
00:09:43,845 --> 00:09:44,979
Without the DNA,
219
00:09:45,013 --> 00:09:46,915
the next piece is the confession.
220
00:09:46,947 --> 00:09:50,709
Okay, so our job is to
punch holes in these.
221
00:09:52,756 --> 00:09:54,013
Our job?
222
00:09:54,566 --> 00:09:56,867
I thought you'd let me
at least second chair.
223
00:09:57,123 --> 00:10:00,262
You're the boss. You can't second chair.
224
00:10:00,295 --> 00:10:02,830
I got Sydney doing the
Terennial settlement.
225
00:10:03,060 --> 00:10:05,007
Anthony and Della,
they got their plates full.
226
00:10:05,032 --> 00:10:06,091
Me?
227
00:10:06,116 --> 00:10:08,860
I got divorcees bringing me casseroles.
228
00:10:10,142 --> 00:10:11,510
Come on.
229
00:10:12,807 --> 00:10:14,777
Do me a favor.
230
00:10:18,013 --> 00:10:20,396
You're gonna save this man's life, Jake.
231
00:10:21,215 --> 00:10:23,029
I want to be there when you do.
232
00:10:31,146 --> 00:10:32,951
Finally getting back out there?
233
00:10:32,976 --> 00:10:35,324
Ugh, please. This is just research.
234
00:10:35,349 --> 00:10:38,167
I want to see how Marshall's
dating site works.
235
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,335
Didn't you say that costs $5,000?
236
00:10:40,368 --> 00:10:43,473
This is the $50 version
run by the same people.
237
00:10:43,498 --> 00:10:44,907
I will say this, though.
238
00:10:44,932 --> 00:10:47,902
They sort by race, age,
gender, sexual orientation.
239
00:10:47,942 --> 00:10:49,902
It's a veritable who's
who of protected classes,
240
00:10:49,927 --> 00:10:51,379
but it's not illegal.
241
00:10:51,404 --> 00:10:55,084
So if this is research,
why'd you post a picture?
242
00:10:55,109 --> 00:10:57,219
Huh! Whoa. Look at the time.
243
00:10:57,244 --> 00:10:58,949
I have a lunch to get to so...
244
00:10:58,974 --> 00:11:00,321
You enjoy that lunch. Have fun.
245
00:11:00,346 --> 00:11:02,091
- Thank you.
- Yes.
246
00:11:08,195 --> 00:11:09,709
Have fun, y'all.
247
00:11:09,734 --> 00:11:11,396
How you think that's gonna go?
248
00:11:11,709 --> 00:11:13,936
I have no idea. See ya.
249
00:11:14,224 --> 00:11:16,872
Hey, are you doing anything right now?
250
00:11:16,904 --> 00:11:18,115
What's up?
251
00:11:18,140 --> 00:11:20,816
I gotta go see George
Bell's original attorney,
252
00:11:20,841 --> 00:11:24,021
Connor Markes, and I could use
another pair of eyes.
253
00:11:25,708 --> 00:11:27,731
Oh. Oh, you know him?
254
00:11:27,756 --> 00:11:29,852
Everybody knows Connor Markes.
255
00:11:33,682 --> 00:11:34,943
How you doing?
256
00:11:37,459 --> 00:11:39,469
Oh, hey. Briana.
257
00:11:39,494 --> 00:11:40,863
Good to see you. How are you?
258
00:11:40,888 --> 00:11:42,423
- How's your dad?
- Dad's fine.
259
00:11:42,448 --> 00:11:44,083
Back to playing full-time.
260
00:11:44,108 --> 00:11:46,309
I'll be better when you
pay me what you owe me
261
00:11:46,334 --> 00:11:48,123
for the Webber investigation.
262
00:11:48,577 --> 00:11:50,670
She's the best. You know that, right?
263
00:11:50,695 --> 00:11:52,052
- Connor Markes.
- Jake Reilly.
264
00:11:52,077 --> 00:11:55,332
Jake. Listen guys, I put the case
files on the table in the back.
265
00:11:55,357 --> 00:11:57,053
You can read them here.
You can take them with you.
266
00:11:57,077 --> 00:11:58,748
To be honest, I don't care.
267
00:11:58,773 --> 00:12:00,333
And you gotta excuse me.
268
00:12:00,358 --> 00:12:01,358
- Stella!
- Yes?
269
00:12:01,383 --> 00:12:03,185
- Judge Hollis?
- He's on hold.
270
00:12:03,218 --> 00:12:05,120
Don't be fooled by the bedside manner.
271
00:12:05,152 --> 00:12:06,412
Connor's a good man.
272
00:12:07,431 --> 00:12:09,132
Sydney, hey.
273
00:12:09,157 --> 00:12:10,631
Hey.
274
00:12:10,656 --> 00:12:12,207
- Usual?
- Yes, please.
275
00:12:12,232 --> 00:12:13,828
You got it.
276
00:12:13,862 --> 00:12:17,266
Uh, just the same, please. Thank you.
277
00:12:17,298 --> 00:12:19,513
- No worries. Have it right out.
- Thanks.
278
00:12:27,508 --> 00:12:29,910
So what about you?
Where did you grow up?
279
00:12:29,935 --> 00:12:33,248
Um... all over, actually.
280
00:12:33,273 --> 00:12:36,287
Yeah. My mom, she was in the army.
281
00:12:36,771 --> 00:12:38,987
So I grew up all over.
282
00:12:39,019 --> 00:12:40,418
You know, Georgia,
283
00:12:40,443 --> 00:12:42,748
Kentucky, Texas,
284
00:12:42,773 --> 00:12:44,935
Belgium, Germany.
285
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:46,012
Oh.
286
00:12:46,037 --> 00:12:48,787
I suddenly feel very unworldly.
287
00:12:49,273 --> 00:12:50,568
Tomorrow.
288
00:12:52,466 --> 00:12:53,615
No.
289
00:12:54,134 --> 00:12:56,888
No, as in not today,
not two days from now.
290
00:12:56,913 --> 00:12:59,146
Tomorrow. Thank you.
291
00:13:01,442 --> 00:13:04,045
Sometimes I fear for humanity.
292
00:13:04,079 --> 00:13:05,580
So what's up, Jake?
293
00:13:05,614 --> 00:13:08,450
I'm curious about the victim's diary.
294
00:13:08,483 --> 00:13:10,319
You never entered it into evidence.
295
00:13:10,344 --> 00:13:11,668
Ah, here we go.
296
00:13:11,693 --> 00:13:13,154
No, no, I'm not second-guessing you.
297
00:13:13,187 --> 00:13:14,489
- Yeah, you are.
- I just...
298
00:13:14,522 --> 00:13:15,590
Yeah, you are. Literally.
299
00:13:15,623 --> 00:13:16,793
- I'm not.
- Yeah, you are.
300
00:13:16,826 --> 00:13:18,133
You're second-guessing me.
301
00:13:18,158 --> 00:13:19,527
But that's fine.
302
00:13:19,561 --> 00:13:21,684
There are passages in
the diaries that I think
303
00:13:21,709 --> 00:13:23,474
could've been used to
contradict witness testimony.
304
00:13:23,498 --> 00:13:27,469
Yeah, but there were also
23 references to George.
305
00:13:27,494 --> 00:13:30,004
Now 23 references to
a friendship the jury
306
00:13:30,029 --> 00:13:31,981
already considered sketchy.
307
00:13:32,006 --> 00:13:34,277
He was her tutor. He was helping her
308
00:13:34,302 --> 00:13:36,318
- get into college...
- You weren't there, Jake.
309
00:13:36,343 --> 00:13:38,160
You have no idea, man.
310
00:13:38,185 --> 00:13:40,566
And nobody believed George.
311
00:13:40,591 --> 00:13:42,763
I mean, I was the only one who...
312
00:13:44,698 --> 00:13:46,166
You know what?
313
00:13:46,395 --> 00:13:49,131
You can do me a favor, Jake, and...
314
00:13:49,156 --> 00:13:52,161
Why don't you just take the
files and leave my office?
315
00:13:54,495 --> 00:13:56,801
Did I do something? I'm confused.
316
00:13:56,826 --> 00:13:58,000
- You're confused?
- Yeah.
317
00:13:58,032 --> 00:14:00,568
Let me tell you what confused is.
318
00:14:00,601 --> 00:14:03,119
I fought for George
for five years, all right?
319
00:14:03,144 --> 00:14:05,072
I wrecked a marriage,
I developed a ulcer,
320
00:14:05,105 --> 00:14:07,075
and I didn't care
because he was innocent,
321
00:14:07,108 --> 00:14:09,707
and I was all he had.
322
00:14:09,957 --> 00:14:12,832
Man, this whole city hated him.
323
00:14:13,792 --> 00:14:17,060
But I held the line.
I refused to give up.
324
00:14:17,085 --> 00:14:19,620
So you can just imagine
just how confused I was
325
00:14:19,653 --> 00:14:23,024
standing there in
Judge Powell's chambers,
326
00:14:23,057 --> 00:14:25,092
begging her to hear one more appeal,
327
00:14:25,125 --> 00:14:28,297
swearing on my reputation
that he was innocent,
328
00:14:28,330 --> 00:14:30,532
when her clerk walks in and says...
329
00:14:30,565 --> 00:14:32,277
"George confessed,
330
00:14:32,889 --> 00:14:34,424
on tape,"
331
00:14:34,668 --> 00:14:36,582
after everything I did
332
00:14:36,794 --> 00:14:38,768
for five years.
333
00:14:43,378 --> 00:14:45,065
Confused.
334
00:14:46,431 --> 00:14:48,223
I've got court.
335
00:14:48,805 --> 00:14:50,785
You can show yourself out.
336
00:14:51,973 --> 00:14:53,329
You still think he's innocent.
337
00:14:53,354 --> 00:14:55,074
Of course, he's innocent.
338
00:14:56,258 --> 00:14:58,098
You be careful, Jake.
339
00:14:58,692 --> 00:15:00,965
'Cause there's something
about this case.
340
00:15:02,211 --> 00:15:05,355
I'd hate to see it break your heart too.
341
00:15:10,499 --> 00:15:13,324
Wait, so that music
that you're listening to
342
00:15:13,349 --> 00:15:15,309
in your headphones, that's your music?
343
00:15:15,762 --> 00:15:17,885
Not all the time, but yeah.
344
00:15:17,910 --> 00:15:19,909
I mean, I started DJing
when I was, like, 14.
345
00:15:19,934 --> 00:15:22,487
And one thing everyone likes
no matter where you are...
346
00:15:22,512 --> 00:15:23,893
- Yeah.
- Music.
347
00:15:23,918 --> 00:15:25,254
- You know? It's like...
- Yeah.
348
00:15:25,279 --> 00:15:27,168
- ... universal language.
- Mm-hmm.
349
00:15:29,942 --> 00:15:31,543
You haven't touched your ribs.
350
00:15:32,159 --> 00:15:33,427
Um... yeah.
351
00:15:33,460 --> 00:15:34,773
Oh, shoot. You're not vegan, are you?
352
00:15:34,797 --> 00:15:36,730
No, no, no, no, no. I just...
353
00:15:37,364 --> 00:15:38,980
I am...
354
00:15:40,734 --> 00:15:42,543
I'm weirded out by ribs.
355
00:15:44,747 --> 00:15:46,281
You're weirded out by ribs?
356
00:15:46,306 --> 00:15:48,285
Yeah, yeah. Um...
357
00:15:49,059 --> 00:15:50,311
I don't know. It's like...
358
00:15:50,336 --> 00:15:52,089
it's like with most food,
people go out of their way
359
00:15:52,113 --> 00:15:53,758
to make it not look
like what it came from.
360
00:15:53,782 --> 00:15:56,471
- Mm-hmm.
- But ribs just look like ribs.
361
00:15:56,496 --> 00:15:57,588
Like right in your face.
362
00:15:57,613 --> 00:15:59,231
Once you see it,
it's kinda hard to unsee it,
363
00:15:59,255 --> 00:16:00,418
I guess.
364
00:16:02,157 --> 00:16:04,844
Emerson, you just ruined ribs for me.
365
00:16:05,365 --> 00:16:06,636
- Ribs!
- I'm sorry.
366
00:16:06,661 --> 00:16:09,091
In Memphis. What am I supposed to eat?
367
00:16:09,723 --> 00:16:11,233
Ribs!
368
00:16:11,258 --> 00:16:12,560
I'm sorry.
369
00:16:14,418 --> 00:16:16,644
It's true. I'm sorry.
370
00:16:22,101 --> 00:16:24,353
- Everything okay?
- Yeah. Mm-hmm.
371
00:16:24,378 --> 00:16:25,723
I just...
372
00:16:26,815 --> 00:16:29,284
I totally forgot I have this...
373
00:16:29,316 --> 00:16:32,066
meeting with my professor
that I have to get to.
374
00:16:32,091 --> 00:16:34,696
No, no, no, you stay. This was...
375
00:16:34,721 --> 00:16:36,293
this was great.
376
00:16:55,043 --> 00:16:58,035
Is it just me, or have
the law students gotten younger?
377
00:16:59,481 --> 00:17:01,496
Apparently, they look just
right to Professor Marshall.
378
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:02,730
Anthony, I am telling you.
379
00:17:02,755 --> 00:17:05,824
Dating younger women is not
what this case is really about.
380
00:17:10,157 --> 00:17:12,754
Ah, the prodigal children return.
381
00:17:13,171 --> 00:17:14,739
Welcome.
382
00:17:14,764 --> 00:17:16,996
Meet my top teaching assistant, Portia.
383
00:17:17,021 --> 00:17:19,488
We are co-authoring an amicus
brief for the Supreme Court.
384
00:17:19,513 --> 00:17:20,982
Portia, this is Anthony...
385
00:17:21,007 --> 00:17:23,848
Anthony Little and Sydney Strait.
386
00:17:24,689 --> 00:17:28,526
Competition. The elixir of youth.
387
00:17:28,551 --> 00:17:29,738
Please, sit.
388
00:17:30,174 --> 00:17:31,387
So...
389
00:17:32,281 --> 00:17:33,583
you have good news?
390
00:17:33,608 --> 00:17:36,090
Well, we looked into
suing the dating site,
391
00:17:36,115 --> 00:17:37,488
and we don't think there's a case.
392
00:17:37,513 --> 00:17:38,515
They don't get it.
393
00:17:38,540 --> 00:17:40,019
The site sorts information
394
00:17:40,044 --> 00:17:41,546
that members submit voluntarily.
395
00:17:41,571 --> 00:17:43,379
The sorting itself is entirely legal.
396
00:17:43,404 --> 00:17:45,098
- They just don't get it.
- Excuse me.
397
00:17:45,123 --> 00:17:47,309
We're right here, and we're not done.
398
00:17:47,574 --> 00:17:49,504
Since there's no case
against the website,
399
00:17:49,529 --> 00:17:51,579
we think that our best
shot is to legally petition
400
00:17:51,604 --> 00:17:52,762
to change your age.
401
00:17:52,787 --> 00:17:53,922
Hmm. I'm listening.
402
00:17:53,947 --> 00:17:55,516
We'll go at it the way other lawyers
403
00:17:55,541 --> 00:17:58,316
are trying to tackle cases of
non-binary gender identity.
404
00:17:58,341 --> 00:17:59,944
Those cases aren't getting very far,
405
00:17:59,969 --> 00:18:02,699
as you both unnecessarily
reminded me in your office.
406
00:18:02,724 --> 00:18:04,993
That's true, however,
we have one thing going for us
407
00:18:05,018 --> 00:18:06,285
that the other cases don't,
408
00:18:06,310 --> 00:18:08,965
a history of the court's
ruling on age discrimination.
409
00:18:08,990 --> 00:18:10,105
We'll fashion an argument
410
00:18:10,130 --> 00:18:12,366
based on opportunity bias
against people over 50...
411
00:18:12,391 --> 00:18:13,402
- I was just saying that.
- As far back
412
00:18:13,426 --> 00:18:15,060
as the Age Discrimination
and Employment Act of...
413
00:18:15,084 --> 00:18:16,277
1967.
414
00:18:16,302 --> 00:18:17,676
We're hoping since the court ruled
415
00:18:17,701 --> 00:18:19,215
that age discrimination is real,
416
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,090
we can show that your
right to legally change
417
00:18:21,115 --> 00:18:23,168
your age should be respected.
418
00:18:23,193 --> 00:18:24,355
Interesting.
419
00:18:25,199 --> 00:18:27,004
Inventive.
420
00:18:27,860 --> 00:18:29,840
So if I were to follow this ingenious...
421
00:18:29,865 --> 00:18:31,244
legal gambit of yours,
422
00:18:31,268 --> 00:18:34,551
I'd have to first petition
the county clerk to change my age.
423
00:18:34,576 --> 00:18:36,535
Yes, and then when they refuse,
424
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:37,809
we take them to court.
425
00:18:37,834 --> 00:18:39,863
Petitioning the county is
as simple as filling out
426
00:18:39,888 --> 00:18:42,332
- a form...
- 17B5?
427
00:18:43,331 --> 00:18:44,894
I had Portia prepare one for you.
428
00:18:44,919 --> 00:18:47,519
She is a whiz with forms.
429
00:18:51,515 --> 00:18:53,043
So Portia is...
430
00:18:53,068 --> 00:18:54,855
Annoying. Insufferable.
431
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,590
Among other things.
432
00:18:56,615 --> 00:18:58,427
Are you sure this case is
about more than a genius
433
00:18:58,451 --> 00:19:00,035
having a mid-life crisis?
434
00:19:00,060 --> 00:19:01,387
It better be.
435
00:19:02,838 --> 00:19:04,176
So I'll file the form,
436
00:19:04,201 --> 00:19:07,171
and as soon as it's turned down,
set a court date.
437
00:19:07,196 --> 00:19:08,196
Okay.
438
00:19:08,379 --> 00:19:09,738
Sydney.
439
00:19:10,944 --> 00:19:12,269
What's up?
440
00:19:12,374 --> 00:19:15,191
I... I heard you had lunch with Emerson.
441
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:17,418
Yeah.
442
00:19:18,419 --> 00:19:20,113
- How'd it go?
- It was good.
443
00:19:20,138 --> 00:19:23,707
He's a really interesting guy, so...
444
00:19:26,418 --> 00:19:28,064
Did he tell you that I had
to leave because I was...
445
00:19:28,088 --> 00:19:29,657
'Cause of Marshall. Yeah, he did.
446
00:19:29,682 --> 00:19:30,996
But still,
447
00:19:31,845 --> 00:19:34,113
I just wanted to say that it...
448
00:19:34,993 --> 00:19:38,238
it meant a lot to me that
you reached out to him like that.
449
00:19:40,168 --> 00:19:42,160
Kind of thing your mother would do.
450
00:19:42,618 --> 00:19:44,285
And, uh...
451
00:19:45,906 --> 00:19:47,426
- I wanted to thank you.
- Okay.
452
00:19:47,451 --> 00:19:49,691
That's really all I wanted to say.
453
00:19:49,716 --> 00:19:50,716
Okay.
454
00:19:54,429 --> 00:19:55,699
Dad?
455
00:20:00,997 --> 00:20:03,160
Good luck on the George Bell case.
456
00:20:07,869 --> 00:20:09,472
Okay.
457
00:20:12,781 --> 00:20:15,184
Okay, trial starts tomorrow.
458
00:20:15,389 --> 00:20:17,949
Our goal is to make the
state's case look so weak
459
00:20:17,974 --> 00:20:19,863
that by the time that confession plays,
460
00:20:19,888 --> 00:20:21,465
we've already got reasonable doubt.
461
00:20:21,490 --> 00:20:23,777
Then it's gonna be up to
George to explain to the jury
462
00:20:23,802 --> 00:20:26,071
why he confessed to
something that he didn't do.
463
00:20:26,096 --> 00:20:29,090
We're really good on
these ancillary witnesses.
464
00:20:30,118 --> 00:20:32,500
Let's hit these keys one more time.
465
00:20:33,051 --> 00:20:34,953
Okay, so...
466
00:20:35,778 --> 00:20:38,403
Olivia Scott: victim's best friend.
467
00:20:38,428 --> 00:20:40,381
Now, the crux of her testimony is...
468
00:20:40,406 --> 00:20:43,032
I spoke to Tess just a
few hours before she died.
469
00:20:43,066 --> 00:20:45,235
Did she any anything
about the defendant?
470
00:20:45,268 --> 00:20:47,235
She said they'd had a fight,
471
00:20:47,260 --> 00:20:49,828
and that she was scared
of what he might do.
472
00:20:51,687 --> 00:20:53,251
You know how you want to go at her?
473
00:20:53,276 --> 00:20:54,680
Ms. Scott...
474
00:20:55,153 --> 00:20:58,321
this conversation, you said that, uh...
475
00:20:58,346 --> 00:20:59,789
that took place in the locker room?
476
00:20:59,814 --> 00:21:01,102
That's right.
477
00:21:01,665 --> 00:21:03,946
Would you be surprised to
know that those lockers,
478
00:21:03,971 --> 00:21:06,930
they were closed that week
due to an asbestos problem?
479
00:21:08,133 --> 00:21:09,344
Uh...
480
00:21:09,709 --> 00:21:11,545
maybe it was somewhere else.
481
00:21:12,078 --> 00:21:13,750
It was 25 years ago.
482
00:21:13,775 --> 00:21:15,868
But you first told the story
to the police less than a week
483
00:21:15,892 --> 00:21:17,795
after Tess was killed, didn't you?
484
00:21:19,703 --> 00:21:20,836
Um...
485
00:21:20,870 --> 00:21:23,569
What about her classmate, Thomas Engle?
486
00:21:23,594 --> 00:21:26,781
ADA is relying on
this guy for the motive.
487
00:21:26,806 --> 00:21:29,920
And what did she say about
the afterschool tutoring
488
00:21:29,945 --> 00:21:31,747
she was getting from Mr. Bell?
489
00:21:31,780 --> 00:21:33,711
That she wanted to quit,
490
00:21:33,736 --> 00:21:36,203
but he wouldn't let her.
491
00:21:37,227 --> 00:21:38,639
How do you counter that?
492
00:21:38,664 --> 00:21:40,211
Uh, we don't.
493
00:21:40,824 --> 00:21:42,196
Tess does.
494
00:21:42,221 --> 00:21:44,250
This is from Tess's diary.
495
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,739
And this was written just
a week before she died.
496
00:21:47,764 --> 00:21:49,633
"I don't know what's worse.
497
00:21:50,631 --> 00:21:52,429
"Thomas wants me to quit...
498
00:21:53,604 --> 00:21:55,104
"or he thinks that if I do,
499
00:21:55,129 --> 00:21:57,659
I'll use that free time
to go out with him."
500
00:22:00,039 --> 00:22:02,220
With their two best
witnesses on the ropes,
501
00:22:02,245 --> 00:22:05,348
that leaves Deborah Androde,
victim's mother.
502
00:22:05,381 --> 00:22:07,432
She's gonna hurt us.
503
00:22:07,682 --> 00:22:09,752
The night of Tess's murder,
504
00:22:09,786 --> 00:22:11,839
did she work at the diner that night?
505
00:22:11,864 --> 00:22:12,870
Yes.
506
00:22:12,895 --> 00:22:14,587
Did she say how she was getting home?
507
00:22:14,612 --> 00:22:16,604
She not only puts them together...
508
00:22:16,905 --> 00:22:19,385
She said Mr. Bell was giving her a ride.
509
00:22:19,410 --> 00:22:21,659
She destroys George's alibi.
510
00:22:22,673 --> 00:22:24,698
But she never came home.
511
00:22:29,028 --> 00:22:31,128
Thank you, Ms. Androde.
512
00:22:32,073 --> 00:22:34,044
Nothing further, Your Honor.
513
00:22:35,134 --> 00:22:36,659
Mr. Reilly.
514
00:22:40,591 --> 00:22:42,827
As painful as it is to just sit there,
515
00:22:42,852 --> 00:22:45,565
without anything to
impeach her testimony,
516
00:22:45,590 --> 00:22:48,753
you'll gain nothing from
crossing this woman the jury loves.
517
00:22:54,767 --> 00:22:56,815
No questions, Your Honor.
518
00:23:01,587 --> 00:23:02,956
The good news is,
519
00:23:02,981 --> 00:23:05,175
if you knock out the first two legs
520
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,872
and survive the mom,
that's all they got.
521
00:23:14,973 --> 00:23:16,315
All rise!
522
00:23:22,349 --> 00:23:24,385
- Professor?
- Yeah.
523
00:23:24,410 --> 00:23:27,315
Having her here doesn't
exactly help our chances.
524
00:23:27,340 --> 00:23:29,901
So I shouldn't have my best student here
525
00:23:29,926 --> 00:23:34,018
to learn from my former best
students because of... why?
526
00:23:34,043 --> 00:23:35,379
Be seated.
527
00:23:36,243 --> 00:23:37,426
Anthony, it just occurred to me
528
00:23:37,450 --> 00:23:39,885
this might just be
about him getting laid.
529
00:23:39,910 --> 00:23:43,260
Okay, well, just when
you think you've seen it all.
530
00:23:44,649 --> 00:23:47,979
I've read Mr. Marshall's
complaint and the city's reply.
531
00:23:48,004 --> 00:23:51,303
Ms. Strait, why on Earth should I grant
532
00:23:51,328 --> 00:23:52,764
this...
533
00:23:52,789 --> 00:23:54,631
change of age?
534
00:23:54,656 --> 00:23:57,873
In 1967, the Age Discrimination
in Employment Act
535
00:23:57,898 --> 00:23:59,155
was passed for a reason.
536
00:23:59,180 --> 00:24:01,450
That reason was that we
sometimes discriminate
537
00:24:01,475 --> 00:24:02,631
without even knowing it.
538
00:24:02,656 --> 00:24:06,116
We create categories like race,
gender, sexual orientation,
539
00:24:06,141 --> 00:24:09,162
and we think we know
what those words mean,
540
00:24:09,187 --> 00:24:11,991
because we think their
definitions are fixed.
541
00:24:12,357 --> 00:24:14,295
But those definitions evolve.
542
00:24:15,167 --> 00:24:17,503
Sexual orientation started
with the assumption
543
00:24:17,528 --> 00:24:19,030
that it couldn't be fluid.
544
00:24:19,688 --> 00:24:22,553
Gender started as a
biological classification,
545
00:24:22,578 --> 00:24:24,280
not an identity.
546
00:24:24,305 --> 00:24:26,373
This is why so many young people
547
00:24:26,398 --> 00:24:28,412
are coming forward and saying,
548
00:24:28,437 --> 00:24:30,540
"Your definitions are out of date.
549
00:24:30,565 --> 00:24:33,070
"I may have been labeled
a man when I was born,
550
00:24:33,095 --> 00:24:34,139
"but I am a woman.
551
00:24:34,164 --> 00:24:36,240
"Or maybe I was told to
be attracted to one sex,
552
00:24:36,265 --> 00:24:38,735
but I'm actually attracted to them all."
553
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,116
We all have the right to privacy.
554
00:24:41,141 --> 00:24:43,711
And that includes the right
to have our true identities
555
00:24:43,736 --> 00:24:45,772
recognized by the court.
556
00:24:46,405 --> 00:24:48,647
Especially when people are already being
557
00:24:48,672 --> 00:24:51,787
discriminated against for
having those identities.
558
00:24:53,755 --> 00:24:55,701
We're not asking the court
to erase age restrictions,
559
00:24:55,725 --> 00:24:59,147
we're saying that this man,
who identifies himself
560
00:24:59,172 --> 00:25:01,366
by who he likes, the hobbies he has,
561
00:25:01,391 --> 00:25:05,451
and the health he maintains,
identifies as 42.
562
00:25:05,476 --> 00:25:07,491
So who are we to say he's wrong?
563
00:25:12,683 --> 00:25:14,352
You want some?
564
00:25:15,782 --> 00:25:20,518
It's... a little stronger than
what the can might indicate.
565
00:25:20,543 --> 00:25:22,608
- Okay.
- Mm-hmm.
566
00:25:28,691 --> 00:25:31,186
I see we're both having good days.
567
00:25:32,844 --> 00:25:36,670
Yeah, I just made a really
impassioned civil rights
568
00:25:36,695 --> 00:25:38,431
argument to impress a professor
569
00:25:38,456 --> 00:25:40,905
who wants to sleep with
women his son's age.
570
00:25:42,586 --> 00:25:44,319
Well, tomorrow...
571
00:25:45,106 --> 00:25:48,303
I get to play your
favorite confession video
572
00:25:48,328 --> 00:25:51,826
to a jury who already
wants to convict my client.
573
00:25:57,587 --> 00:25:59,514
It hurts, you know?
574
00:26:03,067 --> 00:26:04,866
Letting George down
575
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:06,670
hurts.
576
00:26:14,350 --> 00:26:16,486
Emerson's not my brother.
577
00:26:21,250 --> 00:26:23,803
Not biologically, at least.
578
00:26:24,481 --> 00:26:28,170
My dad met my mom when I was a baby,
579
00:26:28,932 --> 00:26:33,045
and he adopted me when they got married.
580
00:26:34,445 --> 00:26:36,503
I never thought that
it mattered. I mean...
581
00:26:37,745 --> 00:26:39,464
he's always been my dad.
582
00:26:39,489 --> 00:26:40,737
Just...
583
00:26:41,177 --> 00:26:42,628
dad.
584
00:26:44,099 --> 00:26:45,979
But now, I don't know.
585
00:26:48,425 --> 00:26:50,329
You think like him.
586
00:26:52,089 --> 00:26:53,690
You...
587
00:26:54,233 --> 00:26:55,917
fight like him.
588
00:26:57,473 --> 00:26:59,443
Care like him.
589
00:27:00,382 --> 00:27:02,318
You're stubborn like him.
590
00:27:03,958 --> 00:27:05,293
And don't get wrong,
591
00:27:05,318 --> 00:27:06,980
you're all kinds of a pain
in the ass, but...
592
00:27:07,004 --> 00:27:08,635
Oh, my God.
593
00:27:11,138 --> 00:27:13,081
You're your father's daughter.
594
00:27:25,422 --> 00:27:27,135
Hey, good morning, Connor.
595
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:28,729
Ah.
596
00:27:28,754 --> 00:27:29,989
How are you?
597
00:27:30,014 --> 00:27:32,323
I'm good, Anthony. Is Briana in?
598
00:27:32,348 --> 00:27:34,284
This is the basis of the appeal I filed
599
00:27:34,309 --> 00:27:37,113
the night George confessed,
and Judge Powell shot it down.
600
00:27:37,138 --> 00:27:39,237
Wait, you think that wasn't the mother's
601
00:27:39,262 --> 00:27:41,263
original statement at
the police department.
602
00:27:41,288 --> 00:27:43,237
A neighbor said he saw Deborah Androde
603
00:27:43,262 --> 00:27:45,338
talking to police the night
of the murder but,
604
00:27:45,363 --> 00:27:47,232
I could never corroborate that because
605
00:27:47,257 --> 00:27:49,026
that neighbor died a year after Tess,
606
00:27:49,051 --> 00:27:51,425
and I never found an
officer who would admit
607
00:27:51,450 --> 00:27:53,534
that he talked to her the night before,
608
00:27:53,566 --> 00:27:56,405
nor was there any record
of a conversation, but I...
609
00:27:57,888 --> 00:27:58,888
Man.
610
00:27:58,913 --> 00:28:00,382
Connor.
611
00:28:02,031 --> 00:28:04,217
You know, ever since you came by,
612
00:28:04,901 --> 00:28:08,337
I've been thinking about that
case over and over in my mind.
613
00:28:08,362 --> 00:28:09,796
I just refuse to believe
614
00:28:09,821 --> 00:28:11,967
that all those years were for nothing.
615
00:28:12,556 --> 00:28:15,014
Well, if only we knew someone
616
00:28:15,039 --> 00:28:17,756
who had connections at
the police department.
617
00:28:22,215 --> 00:28:23,335
Hi.
618
00:28:24,211 --> 00:28:27,061
Before I knew it,
my hands were around her neck.
619
00:28:28,484 --> 00:28:32,952
I was just squeezing and
squeezing and squeezing.
620
00:28:33,700 --> 00:28:37,053
When I finally let go,
she was dead in my hands.
621
00:28:42,606 --> 00:28:44,366
Why did you make that tape?
622
00:28:44,391 --> 00:28:46,249
If you didn't kill Tess...
623
00:28:49,296 --> 00:28:50,858
Why'd you make the tape?
624
00:28:54,555 --> 00:28:56,975
You know, when I was first arrested...
625
00:28:58,610 --> 00:29:00,452
it was surreal.
626
00:29:01,156 --> 00:29:03,530
But I knew I'd be released.
627
00:29:03,774 --> 00:29:06,053
Because I didn't do it.
628
00:29:08,238 --> 00:29:11,960
And then I saw how they were
making their case against me,
629
00:29:12,819 --> 00:29:16,992
but I wasn't worried
because I didn't do it.
630
00:29:18,389 --> 00:29:20,608
And even when I was first convicted,
631
00:29:20,633 --> 00:29:22,903
I woke up every day thinking
632
00:29:22,928 --> 00:29:25,342
this is gonna be the
day that they find out
633
00:29:25,367 --> 00:29:27,506
they made a terrible mistake.
634
00:29:28,609 --> 00:29:30,124
Because...
635
00:29:30,297 --> 00:29:31,933
I didn't do it.
636
00:29:35,233 --> 00:29:39,866
And things in prison aren't so great
637
00:29:39,891 --> 00:29:43,061
when you're convicted of what I was.
638
00:29:44,078 --> 00:29:45,264
But...
639
00:29:45,869 --> 00:29:49,327
the worst part was what
was happening to my wife.
640
00:29:53,959 --> 00:29:55,760
She tried to hide it from me,
641
00:29:55,785 --> 00:29:57,686
but I knew she'd been fired.
642
00:29:57,711 --> 00:30:01,181
I knew that she couldn't go to the mall
643
00:30:01,206 --> 00:30:03,109
without being harassed.
644
00:30:03,134 --> 00:30:05,975
I knew she had to
drive to other towns...
645
00:30:06,703 --> 00:30:09,303
just to buy food for our son.
646
00:30:15,602 --> 00:30:20,450
And I'd been in prison
almost three years
647
00:30:20,475 --> 00:30:23,536
when my last appeal failed,
648
00:30:23,561 --> 00:30:25,856
and I realized finally...
649
00:30:27,238 --> 00:30:29,544
it didn't matter that I didn't do it.
650
00:30:31,553 --> 00:30:34,790
I was never gonna get out of there.
651
00:30:38,008 --> 00:30:39,777
So...
652
00:30:39,802 --> 00:30:41,802
the next time my wife came to visit,
653
00:30:41,827 --> 00:30:43,989
I looked her in the eyes and I lied.
654
00:30:44,014 --> 00:30:45,638
I told her...
655
00:30:51,019 --> 00:30:53,106
I told her I did do it.
656
00:30:58,107 --> 00:31:01,192
She never would've moved on otherwise.
657
00:31:02,483 --> 00:31:05,686
She would've stayed
just as locked up as me.
658
00:31:09,463 --> 00:31:13,434
13 times I had to tell her
before she believed me.
659
00:31:17,383 --> 00:31:19,622
I remember the look on her face,
660
00:31:20,610 --> 00:31:22,427
just before she ran out.
661
00:31:28,884 --> 00:31:30,320
So...
662
00:31:31,679 --> 00:31:34,059
Yeah, telling the cops...
663
00:31:34,672 --> 00:31:36,832
was easy after that.
664
00:31:43,487 --> 00:31:45,423
No further questions.
665
00:31:52,808 --> 00:31:54,306
Mr. Bell, if you're innocent,
666
00:31:54,331 --> 00:31:56,502
then why didn't you
drop Tess off at home?
667
00:31:58,027 --> 00:31:59,455
I did.
668
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:00,908
I swear.
669
00:32:01,474 --> 00:32:04,127
So the mother's lying,
but you're telling the truth?
670
00:32:32,105 --> 00:32:33,495
Jake.
671
00:32:35,857 --> 00:32:37,378
We need to talk.
672
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,323
Maybe if we knew what it
was you were looking for.
673
00:32:45,348 --> 00:32:47,409
If what Connor said is true,
674
00:32:47,434 --> 00:32:49,069
someone either made an innocent mistake
675
00:32:49,094 --> 00:32:51,128
or someone made a deliberate omission.
676
00:32:52,039 --> 00:32:56,269
Now every time a car goes out,
dispatch files a run report.
677
00:32:56,294 --> 00:32:57,629
That way, the officers get in distress,
678
00:32:57,653 --> 00:32:59,144
we know where they are.
679
00:32:59,536 --> 00:33:02,269
Now, I'm sure...
680
00:33:03,537 --> 00:33:05,473
they'd have destroyed the
mother's original statement,
681
00:33:05,497 --> 00:33:07,987
but if I can find the run sheet,
682
00:33:08,012 --> 00:33:09,675
we'll know she talked to someone.
683
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,030
Despite the absurd
circumstances of this case,
684
00:33:19,055 --> 00:33:21,378
I find merit in
what Ms. Strait has said.
685
00:33:21,587 --> 00:33:23,155
The world is changing,
686
00:33:23,180 --> 00:33:25,050
and there are people
with legitimate claims
687
00:33:25,075 --> 00:33:27,682
who are finding that neither
our courts nor our legislature
688
00:33:27,707 --> 00:33:29,972
seem to care when their
rights are infringed upon.
689
00:33:29,997 --> 00:33:31,808
Rather than debate issues of identity,
690
00:33:31,833 --> 00:33:33,706
the courts are choosing
to turn a deaf ear.
691
00:33:33,731 --> 00:33:36,964
That is not how our legal
system is meant to behave.
692
00:33:36,989 --> 00:33:39,362
- Oh, my God.
- Are we about to win?
693
00:33:39,686 --> 00:33:41,573
Ms. Strait, Mr. Little,
694
00:33:41,598 --> 00:33:45,214
I hope your argument
will serve as a catalyst
695
00:33:45,239 --> 00:33:48,724
to help with real cases
about sexual orientation
696
00:33:48,749 --> 00:33:50,222
and gender identity,
697
00:33:50,247 --> 00:33:52,878
for these are people who
should have their day in court.
698
00:33:53,586 --> 00:33:55,409
Off the record.
699
00:33:56,204 --> 00:33:58,840
As for you, Mr. Marshall...
700
00:33:58,865 --> 00:34:00,938
I find your claim ridiculous.
701
00:34:01,197 --> 00:34:03,542
You are 62 years old.
702
00:34:03,567 --> 00:34:06,698
If you want to date younger women,
lie like everyone else does.
703
00:34:11,833 --> 00:34:15,252
Well, don't look so blue.
You heard that judge.
704
00:34:15,277 --> 00:34:16,714
I lost.
705
00:34:17,149 --> 00:34:22,128
But in trying to win my
absurd theoretical case,
706
00:34:22,593 --> 00:34:25,511
you gave people with legitimate claims
707
00:34:25,536 --> 00:34:27,362
another argument to
use to fight in court,
708
00:34:27,387 --> 00:34:29,155
as I knew you would.
709
00:34:29,180 --> 00:34:30,714
In fact...
710
00:34:30,895 --> 00:34:32,917
that argument will fit in nicely
711
00:34:32,942 --> 00:34:34,293
with that amicus brief I'm writing
712
00:34:34,317 --> 00:34:36,152
for the U.S. Supreme Court.
713
00:34:36,177 --> 00:34:39,120
The one on the subject of
their needing to rule in favor
714
00:34:39,145 --> 00:34:41,956
of protecting gender
identity under Title VII.
715
00:34:41,981 --> 00:34:43,089
It's funny.
716
00:34:43,114 --> 00:34:44,815
Whenever you're so close to an issue,
717
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,237
you can never see all the
ways you can win an argument.
718
00:34:47,262 --> 00:34:49,808
You need someone or someones
719
00:34:49,833 --> 00:34:51,964
to think outside the box.
720
00:34:54,714 --> 00:34:58,081
Oh. For the record, my girlfriend is 59.
721
00:34:59,027 --> 00:35:00,262
And my son...
722
00:35:00,287 --> 00:35:02,573
who you both keep asking me about,
723
00:35:02,978 --> 00:35:06,534
she's 25 and brilliant.
724
00:35:06,784 --> 00:35:08,464
And her father is very
excited to tell her
725
00:35:08,489 --> 00:35:10,034
what you both did today.
726
00:35:16,406 --> 00:35:19,204
I told you it wasn't
about him getting laid.
727
00:35:19,229 --> 00:35:21,011
- I knew it.
- Yeah,
728
00:35:21,036 --> 00:35:22,707
but then you freaked out
when you thought you were wrong.
729
00:35:22,731 --> 00:35:24,575
No, I didn't freak out.
Would you say I freaked out?
730
00:35:24,599 --> 00:35:26,302
You weren't the one
looking at your face.
731
00:35:26,327 --> 00:35:27,595
Your face.
732
00:35:27,620 --> 00:35:29,223
- It's beautiful. So beautiful.
- Stupid just now.
733
00:35:29,247 --> 00:35:31,612
You don't even know what it looked like.
734
00:35:41,576 --> 00:35:42,611
Jake?
735
00:35:42,636 --> 00:35:44,362
Back in a second, okay?
736
00:35:46,617 --> 00:35:47,909
Robbie?
737
00:35:48,649 --> 00:35:50,503
I didn't find the run report.
738
00:35:53,168 --> 00:35:54,985
Found her original statement.
739
00:35:58,731 --> 00:36:00,206
I'll tell Judge Jacobs
740
00:36:00,231 --> 00:36:02,894
that you are going to
recall Deborah Androde.
741
00:36:06,245 --> 00:36:08,737
I'll do my best to keep this quiet.
742
00:36:08,762 --> 00:36:10,011
I won't.
743
00:36:11,524 --> 00:36:12,745
Thank you.
744
00:36:13,837 --> 00:36:17,269
Ms. Androde, you spoke to the police
745
00:36:17,306 --> 00:36:20,443
around noon the day
after Tess was killed,
746
00:36:20,789 --> 00:36:24,198
and the state said that this
was your initial statement.
747
00:36:24,223 --> 00:36:26,322
But didn't you in fact
speak to the police
748
00:36:26,347 --> 00:36:28,150
- the night Tess went missing?
- Objection!
749
00:36:28,175 --> 00:36:29,629
- Foundation.
- Your Honor, I have here the copy
750
00:36:29,653 --> 00:36:33,361
of an interview conducted
by the police at 11:45 p.m.
751
00:36:33,386 --> 00:36:34,621
- the night before.
- Your Honor!
752
00:36:34,645 --> 00:36:35,809
We would like this marked in evidence.
753
00:36:35,833 --> 00:36:38,503
Everyone, in my chambers now.
754
00:36:44,672 --> 00:36:46,212
How do we even know it's real?
755
00:36:46,237 --> 00:36:48,862
It was given to us by
the current Chief of Detectives,
756
00:36:48,887 --> 00:36:51,103
who is as appalled as we are.
757
00:36:51,128 --> 00:36:52,784
Your Honor,
if you want me to go out there
758
00:36:52,809 --> 00:36:54,964
and tear that woman apart, I'll do so.
759
00:36:55,504 --> 00:36:57,776
I'll expose the fact
that she was inebriated
760
00:36:57,801 --> 00:36:59,573
the night her daughter died.
761
00:36:59,598 --> 00:37:01,306
I will expose the fact that even though
762
00:37:01,331 --> 00:37:02,456
she was slurring drunk,
763
00:37:02,481 --> 00:37:05,788
she told the police that
her daughter had come home,
764
00:37:06,151 --> 00:37:09,901
which makes George innocent,
just like the DNA proves.
765
00:37:10,198 --> 00:37:12,003
Why punish her?
766
00:37:13,190 --> 00:37:16,073
Why punish her when it's
clear that the next day,
767
00:37:16,098 --> 00:37:20,222
detectives came by and told
her that she said otherwise?
768
00:37:20,247 --> 00:37:23,292
Why punish her when the police
waited until she was sober
769
00:37:23,317 --> 00:37:25,550
and they gave her a man to blame?
770
00:37:27,730 --> 00:37:29,792
I don't want her to feel
guilty for what the state
771
00:37:29,817 --> 00:37:31,121
have done to my client, Your Honor,
772
00:37:31,145 --> 00:37:33,024
and I don't want her to
feel guilty for the fact
773
00:37:33,048 --> 00:37:36,052
that that means her daughter's
killer is still out there.
774
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:45,519
Ms. Cain,
775
00:37:46,175 --> 00:37:48,245
do you need to talk to your boss?
776
00:37:48,270 --> 00:37:51,487
'Cause if you do, I suggest
you tell him to cover his ass.
777
00:37:51,512 --> 00:37:55,214
This right here is a storm
that could easily blow his way.
778
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:57,573
No, Your Honor.
779
00:38:11,948 --> 00:38:14,612
Okay, we are back on record.
780
00:38:15,366 --> 00:38:17,269
Ms. Androde, you may step down.
781
00:38:20,551 --> 00:38:22,870
Jake, what's going on?
782
00:38:23,232 --> 00:38:24,363
In accordance with the agreement
783
00:38:24,387 --> 00:38:26,254
just reached with the
District Attorney's office,
784
00:38:26,278 --> 00:38:28,971
I am vacating
the conviction of Mr. Bell,
785
00:38:28,996 --> 00:38:30,034
effectively immediately.
786
00:38:30,059 --> 00:38:32,477
Remember when you asked me
what it was like outside in the world?
787
00:38:32,501 --> 00:38:35,269
I'm entering a finding of
factual innocence on his behalf,
788
00:38:35,294 --> 00:38:37,514
and order him to be
released immediately.
789
00:38:37,539 --> 00:38:39,472
Let's go find out.
790
00:39:00,843 --> 00:39:02,198
You know...
791
00:39:06,110 --> 00:39:08,604
Everything's so beautiful.
792
00:39:23,743 --> 00:39:25,683
Darling, thank you so much.
793
00:39:25,708 --> 00:39:27,706
Thank you all very much.
794
00:39:27,731 --> 00:39:29,565
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
795
00:39:30,478 --> 00:39:33,089
Those clothes are gonna
help a lot of women.
796
00:39:33,114 --> 00:39:35,558
That's your mother, all right.
She's still giving back.
797
00:39:35,583 --> 00:39:38,486
And you, again,
thank you so much for doing all this.
798
00:39:38,511 --> 00:39:39,894
Oh, stop it, already.
799
00:39:39,919 --> 00:39:42,558
- I love you, kiddo.
- Love you.
800
00:39:42,583 --> 00:39:44,300
- Bye.
- Bye.
801
00:39:47,575 --> 00:39:49,576
You, uh, you got plans?
802
00:39:49,898 --> 00:39:52,808
Uh... no.
803
00:39:53,029 --> 00:39:56,511
Thinking maybe you might want
to stick around for dinner.
804
00:39:57,152 --> 00:39:58,542
I got a lot of food in there.
805
00:39:58,567 --> 00:40:01,436
I didn't walk out of lunch
with Emerson because of a case.
806
00:40:02,395 --> 00:40:04,089
I, um...
807
00:40:04,114 --> 00:40:06,159
I walked out because,
808
00:40:06,679 --> 00:40:08,808
he has your smile.
809
00:40:12,380 --> 00:40:15,573
He has your smile, Dad.
810
00:40:17,796 --> 00:40:20,706
And I was looking at him and...
811
00:40:21,307 --> 00:40:23,659
and just thinking I don't
have anything of yours,
812
00:40:23,684 --> 00:40:26,054
so what if some day
you think that he's...
813
00:40:26,079 --> 00:40:27,284
You know...
814
00:40:28,795 --> 00:40:31,487
Happiest day of my life was
when I married your mother,
815
00:40:32,064 --> 00:40:34,753
'cause that's the same
day I signed that paper
816
00:40:35,694 --> 00:40:37,526
that made you my daughter.
817
00:40:40,099 --> 00:40:42,538
And I've just been living
my whole life trying to
818
00:40:42,563 --> 00:40:44,503
prove myself worthy of you, Sydney.
819
00:40:45,224 --> 00:40:46,815
So there would be...
820
00:40:48,641 --> 00:40:50,299
There's nothing that
would ever change that.
821
00:40:50,323 --> 00:40:53,417
No one, nothing, ever, ever, ever.
822
00:40:54,643 --> 00:40:56,112
Okay.
823
00:41:07,798 --> 00:41:09,440
Thanks, Dad.
824
00:41:11,867 --> 00:41:13,612
- Ah.
- Okay.
825
00:41:15,587 --> 00:41:16,964
What's that look?
826
00:41:16,989 --> 00:41:19,136
What's that look? I know that look.
827
00:41:19,161 --> 00:41:20,339
What?
828
00:41:20,364 --> 00:41:21,542
I was just wondering,
829
00:41:21,567 --> 00:41:23,894
how much food we talking?
830
00:41:24,756 --> 00:41:25,776
Like, a lot?
831
00:41:25,801 --> 00:41:27,362
I'm gonna show you right now.
832
00:41:29,745 --> 00:41:31,129
All right, I don't know what's in this,
833
00:41:31,153 --> 00:41:33,808
but it smells so...
Oh, this is the lobster loaf.
834
00:41:33,833 --> 00:41:35,878
- Whoa, whoa.
- What?
835
00:41:35,903 --> 00:41:38,979
I thought I said you could
each pick one casserole.
836
00:41:39,004 --> 00:41:40,529
How are we supposed to
choose one without, like,
837
00:41:40,553 --> 00:41:42,055
trying all of them?
838
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:43,911
That's honestly a really good argument.
839
00:41:43,936 --> 00:41:46,604
Hey, there's some ribs in
the fridge if you're interested.
840
00:41:46,629 --> 00:41:47,746
- Very funny.
- Is that funny?
841
00:41:47,770 --> 00:41:49,934
- That's very, very funny.
- You ruined them forever.
842
00:41:49,959 --> 00:41:51,508
I will trade you for the mac and cheese.
843
00:41:51,532 --> 00:41:52,544
Okay. Same time?
844
00:41:52,569 --> 00:41:53,903
- Want some of this?
- Yeah.
845
00:41:53,928 --> 00:41:55,011
Ooh.
846
00:41:55,036 --> 00:41:56,145
Barbarians.
847
00:41:56,170 --> 00:41:57,615
You two barbarians are
gonna clean that up.
848
00:41:57,639 --> 00:41:59,981
It's fine.
Will you just sit while it's hot?
849
00:42:00,006 --> 00:42:01,419
We went through all the trouble
850
00:42:01,444 --> 00:42:03,694
of heating up all of these dishes.
851
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:04,802
Where are the shrimp and grits?
852
00:42:04,826 --> 00:42:06,896
Oh, Della left with that hours ago.
853
00:42:07,286 --> 00:42:09,246
