You blew up your family
for Bobby Axelrod.

I'm Keyser Soze, motherfucker.

Judge on the Dollar Bill case

is going to be Whit fucking Wilcox.

- Ugh.
- [Chuck] I wonder

if re-presented a warrant for
bugging the Axelrod home.

- No. Asked and answered.
- [glasses thud]

Look into Wilcox. Go wherever it leads.

You're making a move on a federal judge.

Is he in your way?

If you were in my situation,
what would you do?

You know, if you hadn't
done anything wrong,

but you were targeted anyway.

You want me to pressure
my husband to back off.

You know I can't do that.

- Why not?
- [Adam] So I'm thrilled

you got someone on the

I have no idea,

because as you damn well

- [Donnie] It'll be fine.

[Dale] Sorry about your front door.

It's all right. He can
afford another one.

- [handcuffs click]
- [Dale] Go.

Donnie Caan walked out.

He say anything about
where he was going?

I think it'd be good if
you found him, soon.

Where... the fuck... is Donnie?

[Bobby] He could decide
to walk into their office

and tell 'em everything.

I'll testify against Axe,

but right now I need... [coughs]

And you tried to argue with
her, but she was insistent.

Kids would hashtag that "one hundred."

Any matter related to Axe Capital

is to be handled by the Eastern District

from here forward.

You know, the only thing I can't figure

is if the AG's fear
of negative publicity

is because she's planning a Senate run

or a return to the private sector.

Put on a blindfold,

[Orrin] Your honor, our argument is

simple and straightforward.

My client provided
emergency medical care

to Christina Grunwald.

Mr. Stearn met the young lady's father,

learned of her desperate
medical condition,

had the resources at his
disposal to save her life,

and was moved to action.

I ask, uh, you to

look at this photograph

and tell me that,

if you were in a position to
save this child's life...

♪ serious music ♪

wouldn't you do it just
because you could?

Mr. Stearn had no idea

that medical treatment had any link

to alleged inside information.

[Orrin scoffs]

I ask you to consider the wisdom
of putting altruism itself

on trial.

May I?

- Mr. Connerty.
- [chair scrapes floor]

The people are fully prepared to prove

benefit was provided in the
form of medical expenses

to the tune of some 211,000 dollars.

And that, as a direct response
to insider information

provided to Mr. Stearn.

Further, we can demonstrate

that Axe Capital used this information

to gain an 89 million dollar profit.

An 89 million dollar return.

[footsteps approach]

On a 211,000 dollar...

- [finger thuds]
- [Bryan] ...investment.

Altruism is not on trial here,

but the fairness of the
financial markets is.

[footsteps thudding]

The US Attorney's office has
made a considered decision

to pursue and prosecute

precisely this new brand of criminal.

They are bastardizing the fair market

upon which this country is built.

Passionately executed, Mr. Connerty,

but the humane gesture of
providing medical treatment

for an afflicted child
as material benefit,

begs that a jury learn the unknowable...

that is, what lay in Mr. Stearn's heart.

I deem it best that the court grants

defense counsel's motion for dismissal.

Your honor, I vigorously protest.

Nonetheless, my decision stands.

And I further advise that you
and the Southern District

reconsider the deployment
of government assets

in the settling of personal scores.

All right, I'll wrap.

And, Bobby...

I ran into Wendy at Walter's today.

And?

She was probing Walter for information.

Is that right?

I will seed lonosphere...

That should keep the lights on.

You'll be required to sign

non-compete and
non-solicitation agreements.

We will enter into a
revenue share agreement.

The current rate for
seed money is 20 to 25%,

- ...so why don't we call it 40?
- 40?

Swallow that and wash it down with this.

You will provide total transparency.

I want your trade files sent
to my office every night.

There will be a limit

on how much outside
capital you can raise.

At no time can you manage more
than 999 million dollars.

- [sighs]
- [chuckles]

There will be no buy-out to eliminate

the revenue share agreement

and no lock-up on my money.

I can pull the plug at any time.

That's the deal. No negotiation.

then it's off the table.

I, uh, I don't go to funerals.

I can't bring myself to. I-I skip 'em.

I send mountains of flowers

convince myself that's
the right thing to do.

If I were asked why, I'd say,

"Well, we wanna remember
him how he was,"

Truth?

I like to keep moving so I
don't have to think about it.

More truth?

I'm not the type to grapple with it all.

But...

There was no way that I
was gonna skip this one.

Because Donnie...

grappled with all of it.

He was courage.

And... hope.

And his intelligence and his kindness

made me wanna be all those things, too.

As it did all of you.

I am so angry that he's gone.

So glad that while he was here,

I was one of the lucky few who knew him.

I admired Donnie Caan.

And I am proud to have
called him a friend.

[both chuckle softly]

That wasn't it. It was
just the opener, right?

You got rid of an impediment,
but that's not enough.

You're putting in your own blocker.

You wanna put someone in that seat...

someone who'll owe you, not
someone who's compromised.

Just a more... willing ear.

[chuckles]

The person needs to be qualified.

He or she needs to check out

gold stars across the board.

[sighs]

It's a Senate appointment,
the Judiciary committee,

so it won't be immediate, but
it won't be long either.

Yeah, you're almost there.

Hmm.

Adam DeGiulio?

And then he's out of your way
at the AG's office, too.

And maybe he leaves a
friendly behind in his place.

Wow.

Don't get too excited
by how good it sounds.

Everything's gotta fall just right.
[Chuckles]

And the odds of that happening...

Still, you're playing the game again.
Clear-eyed.

Oh, that I am.

Drink?

No. I'll... I'll keep mine clear, too.

[birds calling in distance]

You all right?

Sad.

Yeah. Good guy.

One of the few people at work
who were remotely interesting.

Tell me about it.

And... he was our gay guy.

That make a difference?

Yeah.

These days, it's great to have a gay.

You are a complete goddamn animal.

[champagne sloshes]

[bottle clinks]

I ruined his life.

Say again?

[inhales deeply] Donnie.

I was able to patch him up,

keep him in a game that
made him miserable.

If I just...

let him fail, get fired, he
would've been better off.

He could've made the life he wanted.

That's kind of a stretch, Wendy.

Oh, he would've been so much happier

if he'd returned to academia.

Give me a break.

College professors are broke
as fuck and bitter, too.

They certainly don't leave
40 mil to their families

when they knock off.

Now, what... [sighs]

is really going on, Dr. Rhoades?

Is it a little case of projection?

[bottle clinks]

Donnie walked with 40?

Hyperbole.

Just making my point.

Right.

Worst part of my job,
I'll tell you that.

- Ari.
- Hey, Bobby.

Thank you, Dr. Gilbert,
for the excellent care,

for trying so hard.

Walter, we're gonna take off.

[sighs]

[lowered voice] A messenger's
gonna stop by tomorrow.

You'll have all the info.

Any problems, you have
the number, right?

Yes.

Thank you.

I should be thanking you.

I took him away from you.

He should've been with
his family, with you.

No. You pulled him out of a dark well,

made him himself again.

Got him reaching for
that final piece of life

instead of watching it go. [chuckles]

[whispers] Oh, honey.

It was a good send-off.

[sniffles] It was very Donnie.

[all chuckle]

[sniffles]

So nothing to worry about
on the Secret Santa front.

I really couldn't have
that around the house.

Donnie loved doing it so much.
[Chuckles]

He kept saying, "I just
wanna make it to Christmas

so I can be Santa one more time."

He'd see them get the gifts

and beam straight through New Year's.

He just didn't make it.

Okay. I'll meet you in the waiting room.

Okay.

[door creaks closed]

Ari? How is he?

It's not contained, and
it's spreading quickly.

I'm not into the calendar game, but...
two, three months.

That's a shame.

He is a candidate for a
drug trial in Pittsburgh

that's been yielding some
pretty interesting results.

Such as?

Slowing growth down,
buying time, really.

How much?

Three or four months more, six.

I can get him in,

but it is a pretty rigorous course.

So... kind of rough

for a guy who's been
through a lot already.

It can be.

Maybe we shouldn't bring it up.

You think? I...

Well, I mean,

what kind of quality
of life will he have?

Best not to bring it up then.
