How many
of his employees

are we currently holding
in Cord's prison?

Two, Your Honor.
Kewame and Andres.

No, no, no, you have
three. Kewame, Andres,

- and Matteo.
- No. We only have two.

Your Honor, we're
certain three youths were taken.

Not by us.
Your Honor,

please.

Do not fuck with me.

No one is fucking with you, sir.

You're done, Wacko, you're done!

Canceled! Canceled!

!¡Hijo puta!

We should probably get going.

Are you all packed?

I'm sure I forgot something.

I'm just so tired.

How much time do we have?

The flight's in four hours.

We should get going.

"They do not move."

What is that?

- Stage direction from Waiting for Godot.
- Wow.

Educated and a good lay.

Meet me halfway.

- Oh, no. Tell them no.

We're on vacation. That's why
we turned off our cell phones.

- Might be your work.
- No.

It's always the NRA
wanting you to defend

the latest school shooting.

Hello.

Well, we were just on
our way to the airport.

Tell them no.

It's for you.

Damn.

- Tell them no.
- Hello?

Liz, I can't. I'm on vacation.

Change in plans. They're coming
in from the airport right now.

Who is?

STR Laurie.

What? That's in two weeks.

No. They heard rumors that
we were dysfunctional.

- Oh, God.
- So they're coming in right now. No, no, no.

This isn't the one. I
need the one from May.

They're coming in right now,
and so we need to show them

that we work well together.

Fuck. They're gonna want
to see a financial plan.

Yeah, I'm working on a deck
right now. No, no, no, no.

We need the-the last
slide there. Julius!

Liz, we haven't agreed
on a plan as yet.

Well, we have 90 minutes.

That's impossible.

No, only if you
don't get in here.

: Oh, fuck.

We need to change a reservation.

Make it an 8:00 flight and
pick me up at the firm.

You sure that's enough time?

Kurt, we are going on this
vacation if it kills me.

No. No, no, no. Forget about
2020. It was a disaster.

- Multiple indictments, nobody.
- Oh, okay,

- all right, all right.
- It's a global pandemic. My God.

All right, right,
what about this one?

No, no, no. Wait, wait, wait.
We can't use that one yet.

- Why?
- Why?

This is the first major
cannabis deal in Illinois.

It's-it's like we put Ben &
Jerry and El Chapo together.

Plum Meadow has a contractual
out if our client goes to jail.

All right, look, our quarter
without it is a disaster.

We go from $45
million to $5 million.

Yes, so we need to
keep Rivi out of jail.

Hello, Liz?

Hey, Carmen, how did it go?

Rivi wasn't at the bond hearing.

- They've moved him.
- Oh, my God. Where?

I don't know. They seem
to be playing games,

moving him from bond
court to bond court.

I'm trying, uh, Division 5 now.

- Okay, okay. Listen.
- No, no, right-right here.

Carmen, we are being
reviewed by STR Laurie today.

We need Rivi out on bail,
and we need his contract

with Plum Meadow
Farms signed today.

Okay. I'll do my best.

All right, you call me
right when you have him.

Hello?
- Uh, hey, where are you?

I-I need you to argue
for a continuance

for Rivi's corner boy.

I thought you were doing that.

I was, but I am being yanked
around by the state's attorney.

Well, I'm heading
into court right now.

- Which court?
- Wackner's.

That's not a real court.

It's just as real
as a living room.

Rivi's going to explode
when he finds out

they're holding his man.

I need your help, Marissa.
This is straight from Liz.

- Get a continuance.
- Hey, let's go.

- Come on.
- Okay, I'm on it.

My farm is in Galena, three
hours due west Chicago.

What crops is it
that you raise, sir?

It's corn mostly.

And how much taxes do you
pay every year, Mr. Holzapple?

That varies, but last two years,

$10,000 in property
taxes for 300 acres,

$22,000 in federal,
$18,700 in state.

And, uh, what
do those state taxes go to?

Police, government services,
pensions, transportation.

Is there much call
for transportation, police

and government
pensions in Galena?

No, that's all for
Chicago and Springfield.

- What's this about?
- Our state.

So you're paying
taxes mostly for Chicago?

What are these lights?

Yes, basically.
- They make you look pretty.

And you're going bankrupt?
- Yes, sir.

Our farm's been in my family
for three generations,

- but if we keep going with taxes the way we are...
- Mm-hmm.

We'll be bankrupt by 2022.

And this is why you are arguing
for a division of the state?

Well, yes, sir.
- What the hell?

Chicago and Downstate Illinois.
- Shh.

- Secession!
Secession!

- What the fuck?
- What's the matter with you?

Have you noticed, you've
been swearing more and more?

Yes. The world has required it.

- What are you doing?
- I...

I am judging.

Marissa has issues
with the case.

Really? Not Marissa.

You're deciding whether
Illinois should be two states?

- Mm-hmm.
- Sure. Why not?

What's the point? You
can't make it happen.

- Sure we can.
- No, you can't. It's insane.

Insane is just one
step away from reality

if you get people to
believe, and you know what

makes people believe? TV.

So that's the point
of your court now...

Floating conservative
trial balloons?

It's not conservative,
it's not ideological.

Hold on, hold on,
hold on, hold on.

There's a farmer with
a gripe out there.

I want to hear it. You
should, too. That's all.

The only way to piss people
off is not to listen.

- Okay, but I have to go.
- Where you going?

- The other court. I'm supposed to argue in it.
- Oh, God.

- What other court?
- Oh, this woman in her living room.

- It's not important.
- It is important.

You have a show now. You
need to protect your IP.

Okay, this was fun.

Please don't destroy the
country until I get back.

- Oh, my God.
- All right, single file.

One at a time, children.

Is that what you're wearing?

No, no. I-I just
raced over here.

I... I grabbed a pantsuit.

Okay, all right, so, uh, we
have 45 minutes to decide...

All I'm asking is that I be
considered a name partner.

You are a name partner.

And that we clarify
our responsibilities.

Diane, there is a split
in the firm that...

You guys, uh, can... can you
step out for a minute, please?

Thanks.

The Black equity partners don't
want to be in your work group.

Because they think they'll
be punished by this firm?

No. That's paranoia.

- We don't punish here.
- Of course you do.

My fracking client,
my union client.

The Black lawyers who
work on those cases...

They're considered traitors.

- Because those CEOs are racists.
- So what do we do?

Only bring in clients who can
pass the racial smell test?

It's okay if you're a
drug kingpin like Rivi,

but it's not okay if you
want me as a lead attorney?

Diane, this is not about you.

I mean, why... why do white
people personalize this?

Oh, now I'm just a white person?

What happened, Liz?

Last year we were intent on
an all-female-run law firm.

Diane, there is history
here that we are trying...

Yes, there is history,
and I've spent 35 years

fighting gender discrimination
to get to this position.

And we have spent 400 years
fighting racial discrimination

to try and, you know...

Okay, all right, now
we have 43 minutes

to fix race relations,
gender relations.

STR Laurie's gonna fire
our asses, and you know it.

Okay, well...

Let's split the firm
down the middle.

I hire half the lawyers,
you hire the other half.

You hire the white associates,
and I hire the Black associates?

I'm not saying it's good.

I'm just saying it's
what we're left with.

It's what we can agree on.

What are you doing here?

You need me.

Look to your right.

- What's going on?
- We're up next.

I don't know anything
about this case.

The kid didn't do it.

He was a lookout for the
two other corner boys.

I feel like I'm going
onstage without any lines.

All rise.

The Honorable Justice
Vinetta Clark presiding.

Troy and Mrs. Harbor,

face each other
and say after me.

As God for Christ's sake

- hath forgiven me.
- Some advice?

As God for Christ's
sake hath forgiven me.

That's the way my
mom used to talk.

I forgive you.
- Refer to Jesus a lot.

I forgive you.
- I'm Jewish.

Oscar?

Oscar.

I'm sorry. How are you?

Uh...

No.

We're on it.

Your Honor, Matteo
Vargas is a drug runner

who works for Oscar Rivi.

He has made our street more
dangerous and more violent.

When the police arrested
his cohorts, he hid

and threw away his contraband,
so the police overlooked him.

We found him cowering on the
front lawn of Carmel and 71st.

Our street has been more
peaceful without him.

In the short time we've held
him in our holding cell,

crime has gone down 80%.

How did you come up
with that figure?

Do you mind if I finish?

As long as you can back
up what you're saying.

Do you have reason to believe

the prosecutor is not
telling the truth?

Yes. This contraband he says
my client has... where is it?

Where is it, Levi?

We couldn't
find it. He hid it.

Did you look?
Your Honor,

- this is a defense trick.
- How is it a trick? It's...

Uh, would Jesus call it a trick?

Didn't Jesus say "Show
me the evidence"?

Where'd He say that?

: Thessalonians.

First Thessalonians.

"Test everything. Hold
fast what is good."

Exactly. The prosecution
is accusing my client

of carrying contraband,
so where is it?

Levi?

- He gave it to his cohorts.
No.

You said he hid it. He didn't
give it to his cohorts,

or the police would have it.

Aha. Oscar Rivi,

back again.

Buenos días...

Buenos días.

And you look familiar,
too, young lady.

Hello, Your Honor.
Good to see you again.

I don't know how good
it'll be. We have Mr. ASA

- back with us, too.
- We ask that bail be denied.

Rivi is the very definition
of a flight risk.

Your Honor, Mr. Rivi
is now an entrepreneur

who has become a co-CEO of

- a multibillion-dollar business.
- What fucking business?

- Your Honor, can we not resort to swearing?
- Mr. Carruthers.

The business is
Plum Meadow Farms.

They signed the contract
with him yesterday.

- So he's making yogurt?
- No, Your Honor.

- This is outrageous.
- Okay, wait.

Ms. Moyo, I want the
Plum Meadow contract.

Then I'll decide about bail.

We don't have
to justify anything.

- I'm saying you need to have concrete...
- This is our street.

Yes, you do! You have to
present actual evidence...

We have a right to protect our
children, our neighborhood.

Wait a minute. Please. Please!

Matteo, did you have
any contraband on you?

- No.
- "Ma'am."

No, ma'am.

Then why was he here?

Why was Matteo on
our street corner?

It's not illegal to
be on a street corner.

What did Jesus say?

Uh... the corner is where

thy people...

I want to hear from Mr. Vargas.

Young man, please stand.

Why were you on our street?

I was friends with Kewame.

And were you dealing
drugs with him?

I want to warn you.

God will look into your heart,
and his punishment is eternal.

Okay, look, I know
Kewame was selling yayo,

but I was just standing there.

- That right?
- Yes.

- And I held his gun.
- Wait a minute.

- Let me talk to my client.
- Your Honor,

- what did he just say?
- No, he didn't really mean that.

- He did not mean that.
- Your Honor.

- It...
- Hold on. Hold on!

Is that what you
had in your hand?

Is that what you
threw away? Remember,

Jesus can see into your heart.

- Yes, ma'am.
- Your Honor, we'd like to ask

that we be allowed
to refile our charges

from narcotics
trafficking to murder.

- Wait a minute. What?!
- As you know,

there were two
murders on our street

from narcotics trafficking.

We'd like to investigate
Mr. Vargas for his complicity.

You can't try someone
here for murder.

I'm sorry. Why can't we?

Because this is a living room.

You're handing out
cookies at the door.

You can't try
someone for murder.

Those murders happened
on our street,

and the police haven't
convicted anyone

because they don't care.

We care. This is self-defense.

And how is it different
from your court?

Our court is a joke.

You can't take it and
turn it into this.

I didn't take anything.

Talk to your judge.
He took it from me.

Excuse me?

He saw this court and took it!

Marissa, what's going on?
- I fucked up.

It's in the same court,
but now it's a murder case.

- What?!
- They're accusing Matteo of murder.

Marissa, I need you to answer
these questions slowly.

Are you in this
woman's living room?

No, I'm on my way
to Wackner's court.

That's why I need help. I
think that I made things worse.

Okay. Thanks.

- What have you got?
- They're saying the people

from STR Laurie are delayed.

They're not gonna
be here till 6:00.

Of course. And I have
to get Rivi's man out.

I have to change.

Kurt's suit.

Of course. That makes sense.

I'll be back in an hour.

All right, so... so we're agreed

on how we're gonna
divide up responsibility?

Yes. It's the only
thing we can agree on.

Kurt, if you're on your
way, turn around, head back.

We need to take a
flight tomorrow.

I'm sorry, but I have to drop by
court, and then I'll come home.

And, yes, for some
reason, I took your suit

instead of mine, so fuck it.

No, that's just the usual
scheduling bullshit.

What does the judge need?

The Plum Meadow contract.

No, the preliminary one,
the one they signed.

Okay. All right.

Uh, Carmen, hold on a second.

Uh, Carter, hi. It's,
uh, Liz Reddick.

- How are you?
- Good. I think we should talk.

Well, aren't we supposed to meet

about the, uh, financial
reports tomorrow?

We were, but we heard a rumor

that our new merger
partner is in jail?

Oh, no, no, no.
That's a nasty rumor.

In fact, I was just on
my way to go meet him.

No, no, no. Liz,
they're-they're dragging him off

in cuffs right now.

Well, bring him back.

Let's all talk
about the contract.

Sure, sure. That's a
great idea. Hey, Julius?

Julius, can you grab Allegra,

and, uh, go and have a
chat with Carter about...?

- Sure. Sure.
- Yeah. Great.

- Follow me. - Thank you.

All right, Carmen. I'm
coming right to you.

We... we need bail.

May I help you?

STR Laurie.

We're here for
Reddick and Lockhart.

They know we're coming.

Uh... let me give them a call.

Hold it down! Hold it down!

I appreciate your passion!

Take your seats or I'll
stop the questioning!

We love you, Wackner!

Yes, yes,

and I love being
loved, but sit down!

- Sit down!
- Dr. Goat.

Dr. Goat, can you tell us please

exactly what we're
looking at here?

This is called the St.
Clair Partition, Your Honor.

An agreement drawn up in 1798

between Andrew St.
Clair, the first governor

of the Northern Territory, and
the United States Congress.

It was lost in 1818
and discovered only

- six years ago.
- Huh.

It is still in effect
as legal tender!

Legal tender.

What is this?

- History.
- Who is this guy?

Shh. Learn something.

This-this document
states irrevocably

that Illinois was
always intended

to be split into
two territories.

The downstate territory known
as "thermarum ubi sunt."

Yeah.
- "The land of the crops."

- And the lake area, known as,

uh, "Il capitis dolore."

- And Dr. Goat...
- Yes, yes.

Exactly what... what are
we to conclude from this?

That Springfield
has no legal right

to tax the rural citizens
of Downstate Illinois.

No taxation without
representation!

Your Honor, may
I ask a question?

I thought you
weren't interested.

I wasn't till I
looked on Google.

Well, who am I to
stand in the way?

Quiet down. Wait, wait, wait.

Defense has a question.

- Uh, quick question, Dr. Goat.

This Latin phrase here...
"thermarum ubi sunt..."

- Mm.
- Uh, how-how did you translate that?

- "The land of the crop."

Okay, I just went
on Google Translate,

and it translates as
"Where is the bathroom?"

That is not true.

And the Northern Territory,

"Et in capitis dolore,"

translates to "I
have a headache."

That is a lie.

- Liar! Liar!

Hold on! Hold on!

Truth is never decided
by who's most noisy.

Go ahead, Marissa.

Didn't you in fact create
this document, Doctor?

No.

Then can we see it
and not just the copy?

It's too fragile.

Your Honor, what do you think?

You're someone who likes
looking at the original.

And I'm someone who does not
mind being manipulated by you.

Come on!

Quiet down.

When you're finished.

Mr. Goat.

- Dr. Goat.
- Doc... I'm sorry. Dr. Goat.

- Mm-hmm.
- If you want me

to take this document
seriously, bring it in.

Oh, hello.

I'm Judge Vinetta Clark. I
heard you wanted to speak to me.

Uh, yes, ma'am. Um, my, my
firm represents a, a youth

that you're holding. Matteo?

- Vargas.
- Yes, he's under arrest.

Have a cinnamon roll.

Oh. Thank you.

You look like you're
heading to the beach.

Yes, I was just, uh,
leaving on vacation

when I heard I was needed.

- Oh. Where were you going?
- On vacation?

Oh, well, it's not important.

I'm a curious woman.

Uh, Lake Como.

It's-it's in Italy.

Yes, I know where it is.

Must be beautiful.

Oh, it is. Mm-hmm.

So you've been there before?

Um, just once.

We don't get away often.

We-we thought we'd splurge.

Sounds wonderful.

Um, ma'am, um,

is it true that you're thinking
of trying Matteo for murder?

Yes.

May I show you something?

Of course.

This is Christopher.

He was walking home from
school when he got caught

in the crossfire
of a gang shootout.

One of the gangs
was Oscar Rivi's.

I did the eulogy at
Christopher's funeral.

Ever done a eulogy
for an eight-year-old?

No.

Not pleasant.

This is Gabriel.

He wanted to go to
USC film school.

He was killed by a corner boy

who mistook him
for somebody else.

I... I am sorry.

I mean, I can't say that
I understand your pain

because of course I can't,

but Matteo should be given over
to the police, not held here.

The police haven't
arrested anyone

for those murders, any of these.

Since the BLM movement,

they've pulled back
from our streets.

No one's coming to help.

That's why I started this court.

It's not a joke to us.

It's not your
firm's reality show.

Oh, that's not my firm...

Actually, it is, Mrs. Lockhart.

If I were you, I would
prepare your client for trial.

What happened to Marissa?

I'm her boss, Matteo.

But you're also Oscar's lawyer?

I'm also your lawyer. So
they said you had a gun?

- But I wasn't gonna use it.
- Okay, stress that. She needs

- to hear more from you than from me.

Just, I'm not the kind of
person she wants to hear from.

Now tell me about the gun.
Did anyone see you with it?

Did you throw it away somewhere?

- And have you ever used it before?
- Diane?

- Yeah.
- Vinetta is a Christian judge.

She doesn't just want
to hear about the facts.

Matteo, what faith are you?

- Nothing. I mean my mom was...
- All right.

You need to tell the judge
why you took the gun.

It was to stop your friends
for religious reasons.

Can you say that?

I'm so sorry.

I'm trying to get a hold of
Mrs. Reddick and Mrs. Lockhart.

Thanks for your patience.

We told them we would
be here at noon.

Yes, but I think some
signals got crossed.

Well, see, that's the trouble.

What do you think?

Give them a few minutes.

It's women.

We could just move
on, install men.

PGA tour?

You want to watch?

Please.

Mickelson's leading
by two strokes.

- He inspires me.
- Me, too.

PGA tour?

Mickelson is up two strokes.

He's an inspiration.

What did I say?

Men of a certain age.
We're easily inspired.

Oh, your
client is full of crap.

My client's smelling
like a rose in all this.

Oh, you're grasping at straws.

You, you are not
holding us for ransom!

This is not ransom!

Are you gonna blame me
for Mr. Rivi's volatility?

He's not a violent man.

- It's my wife's firm.

Never a dull moment.

So, you're the new lawyer now?

Uh, yes, Your Honor. I heard
that there was a question about

Mr. Rivi's new status as, a, uh,
co-CEO, so I have brought you

his most recently
signed contract.

Your Honor, I called
Plum Meadow's legal team,

and they insisted they have
no merger deal with Rivi.

Your Honor, I don't know
who Mr. ASA spoke to,

but he is absolutely
misinformed.

I spoke to the head of their
negotiation team... Mr. Schmidt.

Yeah, well, there-there
most certainly is a merger,

- as you can see right here.
- Just smile. Just smile.

And it has been signed.
- And yet the legal team insisted

that there are still a few
deal points left outstanding.

- No, there are not.
- There are.

Your Honor, there
are no outstanding...

- Okay. Okay, okay.

Let me take a recess.

And I will examine these.

Hey, Allegra, what the
hell? What is going on?

They want a 50% cut on
their insurance co-pay.

- We already negotiated that.
- But there's something else.

I'm trying to get him
down, but he's not budging.

You think he's trying to
blow up the whole deal?

I think there's a chance.

And I think there's a
chance he's stalling us.

Okay. You know, I... I-I-I
might know what's going on.

Let me... let me...
let me call you back.

What do you think?

I think you're right.

I think Plum Meadow's
worried Oscar's undependable.

They're looking
to his number two.

All right, we got to tell him.

: He's
going to explode.

- He's not gonna believe us.
- Oh, well.

As you can see, Your Honor,

this document is all too real.

You'll notice the
damage on the edges.

That's from the historic
Chicago fire of 1871.

Your Honor, this document
is from 17 whatever.

Women weren't even
allowed to vote.

Black people were still slaves.

We were killing
Native Americans.

: Woke. Woke.

Your Honor, uh, this agreement

preceded any treaty formed

by the U.S. Congress.

Dean?

- Yeah!

Your Honor, can we keep
the outbursts to a minimum?

You're losing,
bitch! Get used to it!

Stop. Stop. Calm down.

Have some respect, or I'll
have you held in contempt.

One thing you learn a lot about

in the backroom of a
copy shop is paper.

Did you know

that paper is 75% air?

Oh, air was
totally misunderstood

until Orville Wright in 1906.

It's true.

That's why the fiber
spacing is so wide.

But in older parchment, the
paper was mostly cotton,

and the spacing's 40%.

That's why the hash mark
belongs on the defense side.

- - Excuse me, sir.
- No, Doctor.

This paper's called
Hallmark Parch Five.

It's used in award documents,
graduate certificates.

It can be aged and
burnt to look older.

- It's a forgery.
- Bullshit!

- Come on. Look at that thing!
- Calm down!

- Calm down!
That's our history.

You're a liar!
- Defense, do you have any witnesses?

That's our heritage, man.
- Uh, Your Honor,

maybe we should take a
pause. This is getting ugly.

The truth is ugly.
The only thing uglier

is not pursuing it. Do
you have any witnesses?

Ugh. Why is Cord doing this?

I don't know. Why
don't you ask him?

Pretty cool
hunt out there today...

You're insane.

The Browning has smooth,
three-lug action.

What does it matter
if you can't hold it?

- The Pro Hunter has better weight, right?
- Ah...

- What about the Schultz & Larsen?
Oh!

- Well, you two are just biased against the English.
- No.

Your Honor, my client's only
guilt was allowing himself

to be manipulated by those
he considered friends.

Matteo?

Your Honor, ma'am,

I was afraid my friends were
putting themselves in danger.

I prayed to Jesus. He told me,
"Go to them. Take their guns."

So you were there
for your friends

out of Christian charity?

Yes, ma'am.

Stand up, ma'am. Stand up!

- Oh, me?
- Stand up!

Why do you hold this
court in such contempt?

Uh, I don't think I do.

Oh, yes, you do. Gideon.

Years ago, I ran a day care.

And I found many ways to
repurpose these appliances.

Matteo,
what faith are you?

Nothing. I
mean, my mom was...

I need you to tell the
judge why you took the gun.

You were trying to stop your
friends for religious reasons.

- Can you say that?
I'd be lying.

This isn't a
real court, Matteo.

There's no perjury here.

You're under arrest
for suborning perjury.

- Gideon!
- Oh, come on. This is outrageous.

No, it's the law.

You can't hold me like this.

Get your hands off of me!

Where is my phone call?

I'm gonna call my lawyer.

They want to blow the deal?

That's what we think.

They are not negotiating.

So we'll sell the pot ourselves.

We do the gummies,
we do the candy.

We have the infrastructure.

Oscar, we think...

Oscar, she has a
share that is equal

to yours in your business.

If you're imprisoned,
she can make the deal.

And you said yourself she was
in control of the business

when you were in prison.

Yes, and-and we
want to be wrong.

But we're here to
protect you, not Isabel.

Officer, we're fine.

Thank you. We're fine.

Oscar, Plum Meadow is holding
a negotiating position

that only makes sense if
they have another option.

Now, all we're asking is
to test this possibility.

We want you to call your
wife... Uh, her interpreter...

And say your lawyers want you

to separate out your
business interests.

It's a... it's a post-nup.

Insist that it's just
for tax purposes.

And if we're right, she won't
agree to it, because she knows

that Plum Meadow needs the whole
infrastructure, not just hers.

Ay.

Hey, Diane. How's
it going there?

Not good.

I can't make the
6:00 with STR Laurie.

I heard you had
bars over here...

You drink and shoot in the bar.

- Oh, yeah, in Michigan.
- You're joking?

No. I'll take you two
next time you're here.

- Oh. Ah.

There's the wife, probably
saying the vacation's delayed.

Hey, babe, where are you?

Well, that might take
a little explaining.

Mira.

I'll-I'll tell Plum Meadow about
this severing of the business.

My guess is, they'll tell
the judge you're now co-CEO.

Oscar.

So, Mr. Cord, why this case?

Because I think our
country is edging away

from individualism,
towards socialism.

- That's right! Yeah!

Stop. Stop. Calm down.

And that's why you want
the country more fractured?

Well, fractured is a
fraught word, but, uh, yes.

You and I... We have
nothing in common.

Why should you decide for me?

Why should I decide
for you? Hmm?

Why should Portland
decide for Eastern Oregon?

The ranchers have more
in common with Idaho.

Why should they be ruled
by some arbitrary line

drawn in the 19th century?

- Dean.

Hold on, hold
on. Wait, wait, wait.

- Hold on. Quiet down.

Then why care what
Judge Wackner decides?

- Why?
- Yes.

Why should you defer to
him? Why defer to anyone?

Isn't that the point of
this entire experiment?

Judge Wackner judges

because we, the people,

do not like the Cook
County judicial system.

So, if you don't like
this court system,

you'll just start a new one?

I guess.

So, then why does this
matter? This court?

Ah. It matters only insofar

as we continue to
agree that it matters.

So if you don't like
Judge Wackner's rulings,

youcan just ignore them
and create a new court?

Yes. However,

I'm guessing that I will like
the way the judge decides.

Your Honor,
is this what you think?

It doesn't matter
what you decide?

I need a moment to
consider my ruling.

Thank you.

We love you, Wackner!

No.

Court's closed for the day.

I'm Diane Lockhart's husband.

Putting you in
the upstairs bedroom.

Why?

What's going on?

I've been granted
a conjugal visit.

Oh. Kurt, no.

Go home. This is crazy.

And miss our first
day of vacation?

Oh... what am I
doing with my life?

No idea, but I guess we're
stuck in it together.

I'll get dinner later.
I'll knock four times

on the door upstairs
to let you get decent.

Here's a Bible.

Well, this is nice.

They gave me a
decoration for my wall.

Lake Como.

God, I'm sorry, babe.

I thought the craziness
would end with 2020.

I brought something
from your work.

Oh. Funny.

I brought something
from my work.

Gummies?

Oh, yeah.

I've never tried
marijuana before.

Really?

Yeah, it's-it's...
it's all the rage.

Okay. I, uh...

I guess we got a
vacation going, huh?

Thank you, Mrs.
Rivi, for testifying.

When I go too fast, tell
me when to slow down.

Do you understand?

I understand.

Good.

How long have you been
married to Oscar Rivi?

12 years.

And you
have three children?

And it pains you to testify
the way you are today?

Yes.

Now, you have called

the state's attorney's
office because you are afraid

that your husband
is a dangerous man

who intends to kill you.

And there was a
deal in the works

with Plum Meadow Farms when
Mr. Rivi became violent?

Was that question too fast?

Uh, Your Honor, the
question wasn't too fast.

The ASA's attempt to testify
for Mrs. Rivi was too fast.

- Well, that's...
- She knows as well as anyone

that if she testifies the way
the prosecutor wants her to,

there will be no deal
with Plum Meadow Farms.

Wait a minute.
- No, no, I am just explaining

what is obvious here.

Plum Meadow Farms can't make
a deal with Isabel alone.

- Your Honor, shut her up!
- No, excuse me!

Shut a Black woman up? Your
Honor, is he really saying that?

That is not what I meant.
Hold on, sports fans.

Hey, hold it! Hold it! Let's

let the witness answer, please.

Ms. Rivi, the
prosecutor is asking

if you're accusing your
husband of attempting

to silence you by killing you.

Is this true?

No.

My husband is the most
loving man I've ever known.

This is not what
she told us, Your Honor.

- She is being threatened!
- Are you serious? Come on!

Are you being
threatened, Ms. Rivi?

Of course not.

I'm in love with my husband.

I know he has forgiven
all of my wrongs.

Please release him,

so that we can continue
running our business together.

Ms. Rivi, I must say,
you are an inspiration, ma'am,

and the best advertisement
your husband could ever have.

- You are free without posting bail.

You always say that
you want a vacation,

but you never vacation.

- Why not Mexico?

I wanted to go to
Mexico last year.

- Why are you laughing?

I want to see the
pyramids on this coast.

I mean, hemisphere.

The-the Aztecs. I
like the Aztecs.

They-they care about people.

No, they don't.
They killed people.

No more than the Indians did,

and you go on and on
about the Indians.

: When have
I ever gone on and on

- about the Indians?
- Dances with Wolves?

What a piece of shit movie.

And you went on and
on and on about it.

: You're the
funniest man I have ever met.

No, you're just saying
that 'cause I'm high.

- Yeah.
- I am high.

Right?

I should quit, shouldn't I?

What are you talking about?

That judge upstairs.

She looked at me

like I was the most entitled
white bitch on the planet.

And that's the way they
look at me at work.

- Oh, no. No, no, no.
- Yes. Yes, they do.

I'm the top Karen.

And why do I care? I mean, I...
I-I could find another firm.

I could quit.

I can't impose my will on
people who don't want me.

And they don't want me.

Diane, I am going
to stand on this cot

because I want to
be demonstrative.

I should
videotape this.

No, no, we're gonna
forget this tomorrow.

My worry is that you
will make a decision

you're gonna regret.

I think, Kurt...
Oh, mighty Kurt...

I think I like starting over.

I like the... the chutes
and ladders of life.

I mean, I want the corner
office, but then I want

to slip back to the beginning
and fight for the corner office.

I mean, I think
maybe it's better

that I don't get the top spot.

Okay. As long as you're happy

and we keep fucking.

: I have never heard
you say that word... "fuck."

No, no, I've said
it before. See?

- Let's fuck.

Oh, God, I need to
get you more gummies.

No, we need to change the music.

Go away! We don't need any food!

Wow. Look at this.

Everybody's still here.

It's getting late.

I wanted to
think this one over.

Please sit down.

Marissa's argument is sound.

David Cord has his own
reasons for doing this,

some of which are corrupt.

And I do know...
Whatever I decide...

We can't just call Downstate
Illinois a new state.

- But

I was taken by Mr. Cord's
arguments of individualism.

So much of our
country has been built

on people finding
their own way...

Not being held back
by bureaucracy.

- Your Honor?
- No. Let me finish.

Yet,

if we only follow individualism,

that way lies chaos.

And that was not the
point of this court.

Or at least not my point.

Judgment for the defense.

There will be no
Downstate Illinois.

- What the fuck are you talking about?!

- This court is done. Clear the court, please.

- Jew! Fucking Jew!
- Hey, hey, hey, hey!

USA!

- Hal!
- You cannot hide, bitch!

Get down!

- Come on.
- Okay, okay.

- Come on.
- Oh. Oh, God.

- We got to call 911. Oh, God.
- Yeah.

I don't have any bars. You?

Shit!

I got no service.

USA! USA! USA! USA!

USA! USA! USA! USA!

USA! USA!

- USA! USA! USA! USA!

- You think they'll kill us?
- I think they might.

- You okay? You okay?
- Yeah.

My dad said the whole world
would be a better place

if everybody realized
they were in the minority.

Are we in the minority?

- Duh.

"No matter where
you are," he said,

"make sure you keep
an eye on the exits,

"and make sure you're
closer to the exit

than the Cossacks
are to the entrance."

Your dad sounds a
little paranoid.

He was, but he wasn't wrong.

Watch out. Watch out. Watch out.

Oh, God.

He said, "Stay
away from parades.

"They're cute until they're not.

And don't trust any pope
who was Hitler Youth."

What's that law called?

Godwin's Law.

Wackner! Wackner! Wackner!

My dad said anybody who
argued for Godwin's Law

has never been near
an actual crowd.

Crowds love you, they hug you.

Then they grab a gun
and try to kill you.

Why? Why do they do that?

I don't know.

Hate is fun. It's clear-cut.

What?

A guy could get
killed doing this.

Against the wall!

Everyone out of the kitchen!

Are there any guns
in the house? You...

- What's going on?
- Shh. It's the police.

Don't move. Don't move,

- or I'll blow your fucking head off!

Everyone down
here, raise your hands.

What the hell?

Okay, we-we got keys.

Don't you fucking move!

Uh, it's okay. They
didn't do anything.

They stole your IP.

It's a good thing we got
a call from David Cord.

What-what do you mean, my IP?

Intellectual property. You
represent Wackner, right?

This is about his court.

Some judge.

I think I'd better
get back to work.

Me, too.

You work here?

Yeah. Ten years.

I'll come by.

Say hello.

50% off all copies.

So... vacation?

Yup.

You need it.

I do.

We both missed the
STR Laurie people.

We did.

But Kurt entertained them.

- They seemed fine.
- Well, that's good.

Liz, I've come to a conclusion.

I want you and Allegra
to be name partners.

I'll be an equity partner.

Why?

Five years ago, when
I hit rock bottom

this firm took me in.

So I don't like the idea of
splitting this firm in two.

And I can't lead if
no one will follow.

And your clients?

We'll manage them together.

You're essential here, Diane.

I know.

But I think I need
to prove myself.

I missed you.

I'm here.

I know.

Thank you.

I'll move downstairs.

- Allegra can have my office.

I'm sick of the view.

See you.

How'd that go?

I just resigned my
name partnership.

Was that the right thing to do?

I honestly don't know.

Well, I'm going hunting

with your STR Laurie
folks next month.

I could put in a
good word for you.

- What?
- Yeah.

Osman and Winston... I'm
taking 'em deer hunting

when we get back.

You want to go?

Yes.

- I do.

That was violent.

Please let me out. Please.

Well, your case doesn't
come up till tomorrow.

Oh, I promise, my dog
will never do it again.

The court will be
very happy to hear it.

No, please, please,
please. I have a family.

: I have kids.

Silence in the court.

If we're kicking someone
out of our neighborhood,

I want to at least hear why.

Mike, take the witness stand.

After viewing Mike's testimony

in the court across the street,

I conclude that Mike
has indeed lied,

and I sentence him to be
kicked out of the neighborhood.

Let it henceforth be decided.

We are no longer subject
to Oregon taxes or laws.

- We are now a part of Idaho.
- Yeah, Idaho!

I have listened to both
sides, and this is my ruling.

I decide for the prosecution.

- Only white people can own property!
- Yeah!

This is the third time
the defendant has referred

to the victim as "he." The
proper pronoun is "they."

- So this court sentences...
- We're gonna settle this matter the way we usually do.

- Ready?
- Ready?

Okay. Go.

- Five, four...
- Go, go, go.

I object. You're not
even listening to my argument.

Yes, I'm a horse, but
even a horse lives by law.

We have 33 seconds
until chutes open.

I want to hear everybody's
arguments right now.

Whoever has best ride
gets custody of the kids.
