Premium rush delivery.

Premium rush.

Just leave it.
I can't do that, man.
You gotta sign.

No signature, no delivery.

Weirdo.

I knew. I knew it.

I-I knew it!

Oh, God...

What you got there?

That is not a ticking time
bomb in there, I hope.

An old juvenile therapy client.

Sam Richards.
Smart kid.

Troubled. His aunt
pulled him from therapy

before I could make
much headway.

Well, I hate to interrupt,
but our 10:00 is here.

Ah. What's the case?

Patent theft.
Ah, yes.

I love corporate money.

Our fees are gonna
make you dream about

our own private helicopter.

We could put the landing pad
on the roof.

Bull?

I left a job undone
with this kid.

I thought you said that they
were the ones who left therapy.

He had real problems.

His mother was a drug addict.

He was taken away from her
when he was four years old.

By the time I met him,
he was eight,

and he had severe anxiety.

Why is Sam reaching out now?

He's trying to get justice
for the aunt who raised him.

She was murdered.

Uh, go. You talk to him.

I will handle the meeting.

If this kid's aunt
was just killed,

I'm sure he needs you.

Not "just."

She was murdered
six years ago.

Sam. It's me,
Dr. Jason.

I got the package.

Y-You came alone?

Yes, I did.

Good to see you again.

How long has it been?

Twelve years.

But I-I didn't forget
about you.

Well, I didn't forget
about you either,

but that's not what I meant.

How long has it been since
you've left this apartment?

About three years.

How do you survive?

Aunt Natalie left me
the building.

Yeah. I mean,
it's not a lot of money.

Um, it's, you know,
mostly older people

on rent control.

But it's enough.

Did you ever get
any more treatment?

Yeah, in foster care,
after my aunt died.

They-they tried,
but it was...

it was just so expensive.

My life is not that bad.

Really. I mean, the whole world
is-is online now.

I-I'm taking college courses.

I've got friends
that I game with.

I-I'm good.

The world's more than
just a screen, Sam.

I didn't ask you here
for me, Dr. Jason.

I asked you for
my Aunt Natalie.

So that, uh...

that, uh, security video
that I sent you.

Um, the man on it is
Curt Heglund.

He killed my aunt.

And you knew him?

He was Aunt Natalie's boyfriend.

He was a--
He was a real jerk.

In what way?

I mean, did he,
did he beat her?

Not-not before, uh...
that night.

But, uh... but he was
always threatening her

that she better not leave him.

And did you tell the police
about him?

Yeah. And they said

that they checked out his alibi,

that he was in Philadelphia
with his cousin.

But, I mean, that video proves
that Curt was two blocks away

just a half an hour
before he killed my aunt.

Just tell me what
happened that night.

I w... I was, uh...

I was in my bedroom.

Um, and the-the door was,

um, was-was closed.

I heard someone
come in the front door...

...and it was Curt.

Did you see him?

No, I, uh, I stayed
in my bedroom.

But-but I-I heard him talking,

and I know that it was him.
So you heard him.

Then what happened?

Well, he, uh...

he started yelling at my aunt.

I could tell that
he was getting rough.

I heard her scream, but

I couldn't come out.

You had a panic attack
in your room.

You know, Aunt-Aunt Natalie was,

she was the only one who ever
gave a damn about me.

And-and... and I was,

I was right here,

but I couldn't...

I couldn't help her.

I w... I was hoping that--

I mean, you know
a lot of prosecutors.

After this many years,
I'm not sure

I can get the D.A.

to pay attention to this.

There is something
I think we could try.

Okay, wha-what is it?

It's called a wrongful
death suit.

What that means is that
you would sue Curt Heglund

in civil court
for killing your aunt.

Yes. Yes, yes,
let's-let's do that.

But we need evidence
to bring a suit,

and this video...
it's not gonna be enough.

In order to win,
we need you to testify.

I-I-I would need
to go to court?

You can't stay
in this apartment forever.

Um...

...who-who,
who would be in court?

Me, the judge, lawyers, jury.

And Curt?
Yes.

And Curt.

You've done a lot of work
to get this far...

...but it won't
make a difference

if you don't tell
your story in court.

What if--
But what if I can't?

You know, what-what-what...

After you've gone
to the trouble

of bringing the case...

I know where to find you.

You can do this.

♪

We're not gonna have
a plaintiff sitting

at the plaintiff's table?

Sam will be in court
when it matters.

If worst comes to worst,

couldn't Sam testify
over Zoom?

Research indicates that

witnesses who testify remotely

are seen as less credible.

I know it's not ideal,

but we don't have to prove
that Heglund's guilty

beyond a reasonable doubt,
only that it's

more likely than not
that he killed Natalie.

And a single witness
will meet that burden.

This is basically
a he-said, he-said.

Well, that's assuming that
our "he" says something.

Heglund's credibility is shot
as soon as the jury hears

that he lied about his alibi.

And he has a record; vehicular
manslaughter with a DUI.

Well, if Curt's such
a strong suspect,

why didn't the cops look
at him six years ago?

Uh, this is where it gets
a little trickier.

It gets trickier?

Sam was nearly catatonic

when the police arrived
that night.

He wasn't able to make
a statement for weeks.

And by that time,
Heglund's alibi was locked in.

According to
the police file,

they had already turned
their attention

to a serial burglar
who was caught

breaking into
the building next door

the day after Natalie's murder.

Well, did they ever
charge this guy?
Not with murder.

He was awaiting trial
on the burglary

when he died of a sudden
aneurism in jail,

so they just closed
Natalie's case.

Having an alt suspect
that the police liked

is hard to overcome.

I agree.
We might lose in court.

But Sam has been

punishing himself for years

because he wasn't able
to save Natalie.

It drove him to be a shut-in.

So if we can break him out
of that prison,

it's a win in my book.

Oh, power tie.

What's the occasion?

Voir dire.

And we have a client
who is an agoraphobe,

so he may or may not
make it to court.

That sounds like trying to do
the pole vault without a pole.

Oh, yeah.
Hmm.

Mm.

Leave some for me.
You're not gonna leave--

You're not leaving any...

Clearly, you have never had
a meal with a football team.

You eat all you can
when you can,

or you might not get any.

Next time my sister
sends me a jar,

I'm keeping it at my place.

Mm.

Gives me an excuse
to come over.

You don't need an excuse.

Hey, this weekend,

there's this new spot
in Greenpoint.

It's impossible to get a table,

but I have an in
with the manager.

Saturday night?

Can't. My mom's in town.

You're mom's-- How long
you been sitting on this?

Wait, wait, moms love me.
Let's-let's bring her.

Mm, she's here with
her church group.

They got a packed schedule.
It's like shops

and shows and museums
and walking and...

Well, okay, lunch.

Let me think about it.

Okay?

Ah, I'm late.

Um, yeah, I'll just clean up.

I don't have a key.

It locks itself.

I hope you brought your strong
voir dire game today,

'cause our evidence...

When have I not brought
a strong voir dire game?

I'm just saying. Sam?

I get it. Sam is a...
tough sell.

Even if...

whenI get him to court,

he is probably gonna
seem odd to the jury.

But that's why we need jurors

that will be inclined
to believe him.

And those are?

People who can understand

that just because Sam has

a crippling phobia
doesn't mean that

he's an unreliable witness.

Oh, I've got a good
idea for this one.

Yeah.
It's a good one.

Should I be worried?
No. No, no.

We just have to make
a quick stop. Hey...

I would like to talk
to you all

a little bit about phobias,

and how they do
and don't affect us.

And one of the most
common phobias is... spiders.

You, sir,

do you suffer from
arachnophobia?

Ever since I was a kid.
It's the legs.

I was wondering if
you would be willing

to do a little
experiment with me.

Okay.

Take a deep breath
and, uh, close your eyes.

Now, how do you feel
knowing that this spider

is near you right now?

Kind of shaky.
Hmm.

Like my... stomach is
on tumble-dry.

And in spite of that feeling,

do you know where
you are right now?

Of course. I'm...
I'm in a courtroom.

And do you know
who's talking to you?

Yeah. The lawyer
with the spider.

Okay, you can open
your eyes now, sir.

Your Honor,
the plaintiffs find

juror 47 acceptable.

I want to talk
about this morning.

Yeah, I'm sorry
I rushed out.

Look, there's so much
going on with this case.

You didn't rush out
because of the case.

Look, I know
we've only been

seeing each other
since Christmas,

but I like you,

and I thought
you liked me, too.

But if I'm... if I'm
coming on too strong,

or-- or getting too serious,
you know, you can tell me.

I like serious.
Well, then, why don't you
want me to meet your mom?

It's not that I...
I don't want to...

Look, it's her and it's me,
and it's a...

Wait, she knows
you're gay, right?

Yeah.

We just don't discuss
my relationships.

What does that mean?
Just that.

So it's don't ask,
don't tell.Rob...

Chester, I get that
it's complicated.

Believe me, I do.
But I have...

I have been someone's
secret before, and I really,

really don't want
to do it again.

Okay, I want to be...

I want to be part
of your whole life,

not just the part
behind closed doors.

That's not what I'm saying.

Okay, look,

why don't you have a nice
weekend with your mom,

and-and we'll talk later, okay?

Rob.

Almost done.

You'll be able to see
the witnesses when they testify

and keep track of the case,

until you're ready to go
in person.

Thank you for, uh,

for-for doing all this.

I mean, I-I-I know
it must seem weird.

Not at all.

Gets me out of the office.

That's cool.

Those all the places
you want to go one day?

Oh, uh, I've been
to them all already.

In virtual reality.

Man, that sounds
nerdy, doesn't it?

Uh, raise your hand
if you've ever had

a noise complaint filed after
VR skydiving with your son.

A lot of VR these days
is really good.

I'm surprised...

What?

Oh, it's just I'm surprised
the VR doesn't trigger

your... agoraphobia.

Because it's so real.
Oh...

Ignore me. I don't know
what I'm talking about.

Oh, no, no, no,
it's okay. Um...

Most people think
that agoraphobia is

fear of being outside.

It's not?
Uh, no.

When I was 15 years old, uh,

not long after my,
uh, my aunt died,

I was still in regular school.

And one day, two kids
got into a fight,

and the shouting just
triggered a panic attack.

I just froze in the hallway,

and I mean,
I started shaking,

crying...

And-and kids stared and

recorded on their
phones, and...

I could not go back

after that.

And that is...
that's my agoraphobia.

You know, the fear
of that panic.

You know, that... humiliation.

You know, I wanted to avoid
anything that might trigger it.

And avoiding so much that...

well, here I am.

I'm sorry.No, I mean,

it's-it's fine.

Court's about to start.

Court is now in session.

The first witness is
Curt Heglund.

I swear to tell
the truth, the whole truth,

and nothing but the truth,
so help me God.

That's you at a liquor store,

two blocks from
Natalie Richards' home,

28 minutes before
she was murdered. Correct?

Yes.

But you told the police that
you were in Philadelphia

with your cousin at the time
that Natalie was murdered.

Yes.

So you lied
about your alibi?

Is that correct?

I was out on parole.

I didn't want any trouble
from the police.

You didn't answer
the question, sir.

Did you lie about your alibi?

Yes.

Mr. Palmer's really good.

...didn't want
any trouble with the police.

You were worried that
they would discover that

Natalie had broken up
with you?

People break up all the time.
So what?

Isn't it true that
you threatened her?

Told her that she better
never, ever leave you, or else?

I-I never said that,

and anybody who says I did
is a liar.

Like someone who would lie
to the police about their alibi?

Look, I told you,
I was on parole.

I knew it would look bad.
Which part looked bad?

That you'd been convicted
of vehicular manslaughter,

or that you had motive
and opportunity

to kill your ex-girlfriend
Natalie Richards?

Objection, Your Honor.
Badgering the witness.

I withdraw.

No further questions
for this witness.

Your witness, Mr. Ware.

Mr. Heglund.

...did you kill
Natalie Richards?

No, I never hurt Natalie.

And did the police ever
accuse you of killing her?

No.

They-they said
some burglar did it.

You know the plaintiff
in this case, Sam Richards?

Yeah, I know Sam.

He was, uh, Natalie's nephew.
He lived with her.

And can you describe
your relationship

with Sam Richards while
you were dating his aunt?

There wasn't one.

It's hard to get
to know someone

who won't come out
of their bedroom.

And how about after
Natalie's death?

Did you have a relationship
with him then?

Well, I wouldn't call it
a relationship.

He started harassing me.

What do you mean?

Well, he started telling
anybody who would listen

that I had killed Natalie.

He-he called one of
my bosses,

got me fired
from one of my jobs.

Did he ever threaten
you personally?

Yes. Yes, he did.

He left me messages.

The defense
would like to enter

a voice mail recording

that Mr. Richards left
Mr. Heglund.

Objection. Your Honor,
this recording

has not been authenticated.

If Mr. Richards were here,

he could authenticate
it himself.

I mean, Mr. Heglund

should not be punished
because the plaintiff

can't be bothered
to show up for a lawsuit

that he filed.

I'll allow it.

You're gonna regret the day
that you called me

a weird little creep,
because this weird little creep

is gonna make it
his mission in life

to destroy you.

I-I didn't mean it like that.

How did you feel when you

received that message?

Scared.

Scared.Mm-hmm.

But you said this
is a guy, he never

leaves his bedroom.

How would you feel if
someone became obsessed

with ruining your life?

Someone you thought
was certifiably crazy?

He got me fired.

Now he's taking me to court.
How does this end?

He hires someone to kill me?

Objection, Your Honor.

The witness can't just throw
wild speculations out there.

The jury will disregard
the witness' last statement.

I have no
further questions, Your Honor.

Bull, we've lost
the whole jury.

Yeah. They now see Curt
as the victim,

and Sam as the bad guy.

If you can't get
that kid into court

to change their minds,
we're done.

I'm positive that it was
Curt's voice that I heard.

Uh, he-he was yelling
at my aunt.

He said,
"You went behind my back

with Louis and Frank,
didn't you?"

What happened next?

Uh, Curt started getting rough
with Aunt Natalie.

And then there was
a loud thump.

She went quiet.

Uh, and when I came out,

she was just lying there;
she was gone.

You made it all the way
through that time.

Oh, I... I shouldn't have
left him that message.

But I... no one
would listen to me.

No one believed me.
I-I-I was just so mad.

That is why
it's so important for you

to look this jury in the eye
and tell them the truth.

One more thing
we have to practice today.

Okay.

So what we're gonna do is have
you step up to the threshold,

and then take one step
into the hallway.

Uh...
You can do it.

Just one step.
That's it.

Okay.

You got this, Sam.

I'm...
It's okay.

I-I can't.
It's okay.

I-I-I, I'm not ready.

You're okay.

It always feels so good

to stretch my legs
after a flight.

To breathe in the fresh air.

I don't know how fresh
the city air is,

but if you're happy,
I'm happy.

Any opportunity
to be with you

makes me happy.

Are you gonna be able
to take some time off work

while I'm here?
Only on the weekends, Mama.

We're in the middle
of this case.

That's my boy.

Always working, since the day
you were born, you know.

There was football,
school, fashion, law.

And I'm proud of you,
don't get me wrong.Thank you.

But you just get to be my age
and you realize

what's really important.

People. Experiences.

And I want to make sure
that you're not missing out

on the really
great things in life.

No, I'm not.
I'm-- I promise.

My life is full. I have
lots of friends, just...

You know,

lately I've been
hanging a lot with...

...Anna.

Anna?

I know. I follow
her Insta,

and I see you
in those pictures.

I see a lot of other stuff
in that girl's pictures.

Oh, I know.
Mm-hmm.

I think she forgets
her grandmother's watching.

I think she forgets
her daddy's watching, too.

Oh, no.

Good gracious.

Uh, brownies for breakfast?

I earned it.
I found proof that

the burglar the cops liked
for Natalie Richards' murder

couldn't have done it.
What proof?

When the cops
arrested this guy,

he swore he was on
the other side of town

at a gas station
at the time of the murder.

That should be easy to prove.
You'd think.

But this gas station didn't have
any working security cameras

and no credit card
transactions in his name.

Well, I got to thinking...
when this guy was busted,

he had a bunch of stolen
credit cards on him.

Oh, so there's a record on
one of the stolen cards?

Not one that went through.

But the cops never checked
for declined credit cards.

Sure enough, one of those
stolen credit cards

was declined at that gas station
at the time of the murder.

That's great.

Lord knows I need
a win this week.

What's going on?

My mother's in town.

You guys have
a tough relationship?

No, no. It's great.

At least on the surface.

Look, that woman is
the reason why

I am who I am today.

I mean, money would get tight,
she'd take extra shifts,

and she still never missed
a football game.

She never let me shirk
my homework.

I swear, the woman could
go into a grocery store

with ten dollars,
and come out with a feast.

That's mom magic.
Yeah.

But then there was the day
that I told her that I was gay.

And she didn't say
anything bad.

We didn't fight.
It was-- It was a look.

That look of disappointment.

That look hurt.

Mm. I'm so sorry.

I just decided I was gonna keep

that part of myself to myself.

And, God, I've been so busy
pursuing my careers

and reuniting with my daughter.

I didn't have time for
a serious relationship,

and that made it easy, and...
and now...

And now you have Rob.

And he's becoming more
and more important to me.

And I want to introduce him

to the woman
that made me me.

And you don't feel like you can?

It's like there's a door
between us,

and I keep waiting for her
to open it.

But I'm also scared of
what'll happen if she does.

Maybe you've gotta stop
waiting for her to open it.

Maybe you're the one

who needs to invite her in.

Hmm.

Yeah.

Maybe.

Now that Heglund can't
point a finger at the burglar,

the jury's gonna take
a real hard look at him.

I just wish we were following
up with Sam's testimony.

Yeah. Well, he is not
quite ready yet,

but we'll use him as
a rebuttal witness,

finish strong.
Hey.

Sorry to interrupt.

Got an updated
witness list for you.

And who is Deborah Carter?

And why are we just
hearing about her now?

Ms. Carter's a friend
of the deceased.

She read a post about the case,

just contacted us
this morning.

She believes she knows
who really killed Natalie.

Ms. Carter, you were
released from prison

not too long ago.

Yes. I did three years

for social security fraud.

But you didn't act alone,

did you?
No.

Natalie Richards was
my partner.

Objection. Relevance?

I am getting to that,
Your Honor.

I'll allow it,

but tread carefully.

Could you tell us how
this-this fraud worked?

I had a check cashing business.

Natalie owned a building

that catered to
older residents.

When they died,
she intercepted

their social security checks,
and I cashed them.

And whose idea was
this scheme?

Natalie's.

She said she needed
extra money

to take care of
her sister's kid.

He wasn't right
in the head.

And she was worried that
he was never gonna be able

to hold down a job.

She was stealing money
for me?

After a while,
I wanted to quit.

Natalie said she couldn't

'cause of that kid.

Why did you want to quit?

It was getting dangerous.

The Russian mob operated
in our neighborhood.

They wanted a cut.

I was getting threatening
phone calls.

I warned Natalie that
she was gonna get hurt,

and look what happened.

No further questions,
Your Honor.

She's killing our case.

I'm more worried
about someone else.

Taylor, put Sam on the phone.

I can't. He kicked me out
and shut the door.

He says he's never
opening it again.

After a while,
I wanted to quit,

and Natalie said she couldn't.

How's Sam?

I don't know.

I went over there,
but he wouldn't let me in.

Oh, I'm sorry, baby.

I was so close.

He was almost ready
to leave his apartment,

but now he blames himself
even more.

Not just for Natalie's death,

but also for being a burden,

that she became a criminal.

I feel like Sam's
not the only one

blaming himself right now.

When he was a kid, I had him
draw a picture of himself

as he wished he could be.

Most kids draw pictures
of themselves

on a pirate ship or flying
or in a space ship.

He just drew a picture
of himself with a smile,

as a happy kid, unafraid.

That's all he wanted to be.

Poor kid.

I didn't help him then,

and now this case might be
the worst thing for him.

You think you're
gonna lose?

Well, this woman's testimony
did a real number on us.

She told the jury that
Natalie got herself killed

because she was a criminal.

You don't believe her?
Well...

she's not lying about
the social security scam,

but there is something off
about her testimony for sure.

Off how?

Right after we eliminate
the burglar,

leaving Curt Heglund
the only suspect,

this woman shows up
to point a finger

at the Russian mob?

It's too perfect.

Well, I can't say anything
about her timing,

but she's got expensive taste.

Those are $800 earrings
she's wearing.

Seriously?

Yeah. My client
designs them.

Wow. Thank you.

Taylor, it's not over yet.

Mama, you didn't have
to do all this.

This is your vacation.
I'm the one that's

supposed to be the host.

Listen,

when you were growing up,
I felt like I was always

cooking one meal
or another.

Mm.
And now I kind of miss it.

Well...

I want to cook for you
on Saturday night.

Really? What's the occasion?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Well, there's somebody
I want you to meet.

His name's Rob.

And we've been seeing each other
for a couple months.

I see.

Look, I know we don't
talk about this.

It's who I am.

And I'm sorry if that makes you
feel uncomfortable,

but this is who I am.

Who said I was uncomfortable?

You did.

The day I told you.

I saw the look
on your face, Mama.

Is this the story
you tell yourself?

That your mother
doesn't accept you?

That's not what I said.

You didn't have to.

I scoured Deborah Carter's
finances looking for proof

that she got paid
for her testimony,

but I didn't find any mysterious
deposits to her accounts.

So I went through her finances
the old-fashioned way.

Dumpster dive.

Someone's been on
a shopping spree.

I found receipts
for designer bags,

shoes, clothes,
all in cash.

Well, I don't think
a few cash purchases

are gonna make a difference.

We need something concrete
that can tie

Curt Heglund to Deborah Carter.

Hold your horses.

I can't connect Curt to Deborah
in the now,

but a look in the past...

Curt Heglund and Deborah Carter

have known each other
since high school.

Looks like Curt called in
an old friend

to take the heat off him.

What if Curt was involved
in the social security scam?

The jury now believes

that Natalie died
because of this scam.

If we prove
Curt was involved,

I think we can
convince the jury

that he was the killer.
Okay. Well,

these are the people we know
Natalie and Deborah defrauded.

A few of the men weren't
from Natalie's building,

so Curt could have targeted them
in some other way, let's see.

Nope. William Frank was
from the building.

Not Gerald Louis either.

You know what, let me
dig into this and see what...

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Frank and Louis?

Yeah.

Those are the guys
that Sam said

Curt accused Natalie of
going behind his back with.

They--
They're not boyfriends.

I think they're victims.

Won't you need Sam
to testify to that?

Last I heard, he still won't
leave his apartment.

Tell Chunk to buy us
some time with the judge.

Taylor, please come with me.

Sam?

You were right,
more than you know.

Curt was part of the fraud.

That's why he killed your aunt.

But you're the only one
that can prove it.

You're the only one who can
get justice for Natalie.

It was because of me
she got mixed up

in all that stuff
in the first place.

It-It's my fault.

If that's how you feel,
don't you think it's time

you apologize to your aunt?

What? How?

Open the door, Sam.

This isn't gonna
make a difference.

Uh, it's not real.
She's not Aunt Natalie.

The feelings are real.
The words are real.

Oh, what's it gonna change?

You probably don't
remember this, but...

when you were a kid,

I had you draw me a picture
of what you wanted to be...

Well, I'm not a kid anymore.

All right? I don't want
to draw pictures

or role-play.

The day you drew that picture
was the last day I treated you.

And I wish I had tried harder
to convince your aunt

to keep you in treatment.

And I am very sorry

that I wasn't able
to help you more, Sam.

We're the ones who quit. It...

It wasn't your fault.

Doesn't change how real
my guilt feels to me.

I'll tell you one thing.

It helps to say it out loud.

Um...

I'm...

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry that I couldn't...
come out of my room that night.

And I'm sorry
that I was a...

a burden on you;

that I was so hard to raise.

I was always afraid.

Sam, you have nothing
to be sorry for.
I tried to help.

Look at everything
you've done.

For six years,
when no one believed you,

you didn't give up.

You found the video,
you found Bull.

You should be proud.

I'm proud of you.

It's up to you
if you want to testify.

But if you do...

it's got to be today.

Where is your client,
Mr. Palmer?

Your Honor,
he will be here.

Something must have happened.
They probably hit traffic.

I granted you a continuance
for this morning.

There won't be another one
this afternoon.

Understood, Your Honor.

Then I believe it is time
for closing arguments.

Your Honor,
my client is here.

Here we go.

State your name
for the record, please.

Sam?

Um...

My name is Sam Richards.

Thank you.

Now, Sam, were you
in the apartment

the night that your aunt
was murdered?

Yes, I was.

And did you hear the person

who killed your aunt?

Yes, I did.

Can you identify
that person today?

Yes.

It was that man,
Curt Heglund.

Has the jury reached
a verdict?

"We the jury find
the defendant,

"Curt Heglund, liable

"in the death of
Natalie Richards,

and award the plaintiff
$200,000 in damages."

You did it.

You can tell
that kid this verdict

don't mean a damn thing.

He won't see a dime.
But the D.A. seems

awfully interested in
all that evidence

that Sam provided.

So I'd worry about yourself,
'cause I think

Sam's gonna be just fine.

Let's just get started.

No, no, we're just
a few minutes past.

Let's just wait
a little bit longer.

No, come on, let's eat.

You tried. That counts
for a lot, okay?

Order for Ms. Boyd.

Oh, no. Wrong apartment.
She's one flight up.

Mama?

What are you doing out here?

Beating myself up.

Mama, I'm sorry.

I know you love me.
And I love you.

I just don't want there
to be anything that we

have to tiptoe around.

I want to be my whole self
with you.

Don't you think
I want that, too?

Honestly... I'm not so sure.

That look that you saw
on my face

when you told me
that you were gay,

that was not
disappointment, baby.

That was fear.

I was afraid for you.
Afraid...

that life was going
to get harder for you.

Harder than it was
already going to be.

Well, why didn't you just
say that in the first place?

Because you were already
going through so much.

I didn't want to add
my worries to yours.

So I just shut it down.

But I ended up shutting out
a part of you when I did that.

And I am sorry.

Come on. There's someone
I want you to meet.

♪ Oh, troubles come

Nice to meet you.

♪ Oh So nice to meet you.

♪ Troubles go

♪ One thing I know

♪ It's all right, yeah,
it's all right ♪

Nice.

You took some good,
deep breaths.

I'll tell you, you are
an intrepid explorer now.

I think one day
you will be

a man about town.

At least around the block.

You're gonna like life
a lot better

out from behind a screen.

Ten minutes.

Personal best.
Yeah.

So what do you think?

Can you do 12 minutes tomorrow?

I-I think. I'll try.

Well, that's all you can do.

Oh, I, uh...

I found this.

I wanted to, uh,
give it to you.

Thank you, Dr. Jason.

Good-bye, Sam.
