-(P.A. beeps, echoes)

RI'CHARD:
You want some candy? )

Want some vegetables?

Oh.

I know what you want.

-Ta-da!
-Unc, I'm not a kid.

Oh, this is not a toy.

It's a medical device.

See, you put
all your hurt in this end.

Well, go ahead.
Want to give it a try?

"I'm Dustin,
and my favorite uncle

"just got me this

"because he thinks
I'm five years old

"and that it'll make
the bone marrow transplant

suck less."

And then out the other end...

(high-pitched voice):
I'm Dustin,

and my favorite uncle
just got me this

because he thinks
I'm five years old

and that it'll make
the bone marrow transplant

suck less.

(indistinct chatter)

-Yes, and we planned
for surgery today.
-Do you know how much pain

-he's been going through?
-What-what's going on?

(stammers)
They canceled the transplant.

No. We didn't cancel it.
We're ready to go.

-Then what happened?
-The donor canceled.

He was supposed
to be here by 8:00.

RI'CHARD:
Why? Why did he cancel?

All we know is that
he promised his bone marrow

-to someone else.
-DELIA: No!

We-we-we need to talk to him.

He insists on maintaining
his anonymity.

I'm feeling manipulated.

It's voluntary, of course.

The bone marrow donor can
back out whenever he wants.

Who are you calling?

I'm calling work.

Unfortunately,
there's no plan B here, sir.

We're lawyers.

There's always a plan B.

What do you want me
to do about it?

Find out who did it.

Check the elevator
security camera.

-They were off.
-The cameras were off?

What the fuck?!

-Maintenance was
working on them.
-Are you kidding me?

The one day
some white supremacist puts

"Blood and Soil" stickers
all over our elevator,

-and the surveillance
cameras are off?
-They've been off for a while.

-(phone ringing)
-Check the lobby camera.

There's one hour when
somebody could've done this.

Reddick and Associates.

RI'CHARD:
Reddick & Ri'Chard.

-Who's in today?
-No one. It's early.

on a Zoom call in 15 minutes.

And any associates you can
scrounge up, bring them in.

Can I tell them
what this is regarding?

It's a life-or-death situation.

(maniacal laughter)

(grunting)

Unhand her right now,
you son of a bitch!

FEMALE VOICE:
Thank you, Julius.

(laughs)
You did? How'd you know that?

Because who else comes into
the office on Saturday morning?

Ri'Chard wants everybody
th on a Zoom call in 15 minutes.

-Life or death.
th on -LIZ: Isn't this fun? ute.

-And fresh living.
th on -LIZ: I -Bugs. his fun? u.

Come on, just-just mother
th on and son just bonding un? .

MALCOLM (sighs):
th oWe're not going camping. n?.

th oWe're(phone chimes)ping. n?.

WOMAN:
What are you doing?

I, uh, got to go.

What? Where?

To work.

(both grunting)

-I'll go with you.
-(chuckles)

Um, no, no. I will, uh...

I'll see you at St. Barts.

Are you hiding me?

Come on.

Stop it.

They don't know
you're gay, do they?

Um...

They don't know I'm anything.

Lock the door.

Why, why am I always
doing things for you?

Everybody else does
things for me.

(door closes)

(speaking in Hebrew)

(continues in Hebrew)

(phone chimes)

I got to get this.

(Zev speaking in Hebrew)

-We're all here?
-ALL: Yes.

This is about
my 11-year-old nephew, Dustin.

He has sickle cell disease.

And he's been in and out
of hospitals

-half his life.
He was supposed...
-(Zev shouting in Hebrew)

-(Zev s Yes, sorry. Hebrew)

Uh, he's facing
-(Z organ failure, uh... rew)

-(Z uh, we found out that rew)

How hard is it to find
-(Z uh, another match?hat rew)

that Dustin
-(Z umight have another... rew)

-Oh, my God!
-(Z -Yes. This is not good. re)

is being paid to donate
his bone marrow to someone else.

-Which is illegal.
-Yes, but not unlikely.

I need legal solutions.

-Do you know who the donor is?
-No. We only know he's a male

-Do we have any legal options?
-No -I don't think there's male

Unless we can prove some
- manipulation of the process.e

- to follow through on a gift.e

You'd have to prove
- to detrimental reliance.ift.e

E-Either way, uh,

let's work up the lawsuit.

Uh, I'm getting court time
at noon.

So we have to move fast.

Uh, Carmen and, um...

-Marissa.
-Right, um...

and turn over every stone
for another option.

The-the status on the database
changes hour to hour,

so something might come up.

-Uh, and meanwhile,
I need the partners--
-Okay, I'll come in.

I'll-I'll work on the estoppel.

Thank you.

I'm not giving up on Dustin...

until the Good Lord tells me to.

Unfortunately,
I think I have to go.

Can we schedule
another session on Monday?

Certainly.
I hope you don't mind.

I couldn't help overhearing
your Zoom call.

The nephew of one of
our partners, it's just awful.

I heard sickle cell.
You know, we volunteer here

helping sickle cell patients
with pain management.

It's way past that.
He-he has a week to live.

I'm just saying, from my work,

I'm on the board
for clinical trials.

Well, what trials?

Gene-editing technology.
You've heard of CRISPR?

It's like that.

Trials are proving
it cures sickle cell.

Keep going.

It works like a tiny pair
of scissors, snipping off

the segment of the DNA
that causes sickle cell.

That's been done? Successfully?

-Yes.
-Well, then why would anyone
need a bone marrow transplant?

They wouldn't.

Gene editing is so new,
it's-it's only in trials.

But the results are amazing.

I know the doctor
doing the trials here

in Chicago,
and I could introduce you.

-You would do that?
-Of course.

Bone marrow matches are
very rare.

So I'm gonna need you both to...

Came from the gym.

I'm gonna need you to scour

the donor databases.
There are three or four.

-And what are we looking for?
-According to Ri'Chard,

these are Dustin's
leukocyte antigens markers.

What's our deadline?

Well, the operation
can be pushed back

till Monday,
but that's about it.

-This Monday?
-Yes.

We should check
social media, too.

That's up to you.

Uh, don't you want

to work off the same computer?

It's better
if we work separately.

(shouting, clamoring)

Dr. Singh,
thank you for hearing me out.

No problem. Uh, come on.
They need me in triage.

-Is it normally like this?
-No.

I came in to check
on the trials,

and protestors started fighting
around the corner.

Give me the rushed version.

Uh, his name is Dustin Gish.
Here he is.

He's already in Chicago.
He can start right away.

In fact,
he has to start right away.

I told her you had one slot for
a compassionate use exception

for sickle cell.
Life or death, Singh.

Christina.
We'll need the paperwork ASAP.

Just tell me where to send it.
We have it all collected.

Clear a sickle cell
gene-editing examination for...?

-Dustin Gish.
-No, what day?

-Oh, Monday.
-Monday morning.

-How old is Dustin?
-11.

-Oh, shit.
-What?

-Christina, never mind.
-What's wrong?

11 is too young.

-Who says?
-The FDA.

I don't have authorization for
patients under 12. I'm sorry.

Wait.

(stammers) He's only
three weeks from his birthday.

It doesn't matter.
This is the FDA.

Wait until his birthday.

He'll be dead by his birthday.

Come on, Singh, what can you do?

Nothing.
I don't make these stupid rules.

If I get an "all clear"
from the FDA,

will you put Dustin
in your trial?

Diane, I don't understand.

This isn't about bone marrow?

No, it's gene splicing.

We may have a chance for
a sickle cell clinical trial.

The board has agreed

to a compassionate acceleration
on its trial protocols.

Wow.
Uh, how did you manage that?

Uh, one of the board members
is a...

an exemption from the FDA.

What exception, Diane?

The patient has to be 12.

but I lied and I said
T it was in three weeks..

I'll file an emergency motion,

get a judge involved.
Uh, how much time do we have?

The clinical trial starts
on Monday.

Judge Nilsson.
He's, uh, he's on weekend call.

-And he doesn't
like bureaucrats.
-Good.

I'll make the call.
So, Diane, he-he'll need to hear

from someone on
this clinical trial board.

Can you get your friend
to testify?

I'll try.

Thank you.

I just made the introduction.
You made the argument.

-Now I'm embarrassed.
-What for?

I need to ask another favor.

RI'CHARD: Your Honor,
we're ready to go right now.

Yes. Okay, where? Okay.

Thank you, Your Honor.
Make a U-turn.

-(stammers) The courthouse is
in this direction.
-He's home.

He wants us to come there.
Hyde Park. South Langley.

(tires screech)

LIZ: We need to provoke
this other attorney.

his authority is being undercut.

Oh, good. That's doable.

Is being a lawyer
always this exciting?

-No.
-All the time.

Hey, you got
another one of those?

I sure do.

RI'CHARD:
Do you know the words

to "Blessed Be
the Name of the Lord"?

-MALCOLM: No.
-Okay, well,

you're gonna learn them.

I sing it to myself

before I go into court.

(children clamoring)

(indistinct chatter, laughter)

-RI'CHARD: Your Honor, this is
a life-or-death situation.
-(overlapping chatter)

Your Honor,
absent court intervention,

-Dustin Gish is going to die.
-Can we keep this

on a rational
rather than emotional level?

Counselor, please confine

your remarks to the merits
of the case.

LIZ: Your Honor, Dustin Gish
has sickle cell disease

and it has advanced to the point
where the only possible option

for treatment for him
is a gene therapy,

which is currently
in clinical trials.

Has young Dustin

been accepted into
these clinical trials?

Yes, he has.

The FDA has no word on that,
Your Honor.

We will have a witness here
very soon.

RI'CHARD (over phone):
Diane, how far off are you?

Diane, Understood.are you?

-We're getting close.
Dian -(phone beeps off) you?

Dian Because I can drive. you?

Dia Was that a large chicken? ?

Dia And how old is Dustin?en? ?

during the course of treatment.

to establish testing criteria,.

the Constitution prohibits
exercising that authority

in a manner arbitrary
and capricious.

However tragic
this set of circumstances,

the court has no authority to
supersede the policy directives

of a federal agency.

RI'CHARD:
Really?

Tell us more about the judge's
limited role here.

ATTORNEY:
I'm just saying,
the court has no authority.

-So, you're saying, that, uh...
-(tires screeching)

federal agencies aren't subject
to judicial review?

(car doors opening, closing)

N-No, I'm not saying that
as a general rule, Your Honor,

but I don't think this court
is prepared to rule

on the safety of gene therapy
for children.

Your Honor, here is our witness.

Your Honor,
this is Dr. Lyle Bettencourt.

Uh, he's on the board of...

Ex vivo gene-based blood
disorder therapy.

NILSSON:
Welcome, Doctor.

Your board isn't worried
about the age of this patient?

On the contrary, Your Honor.

This inherited syndrome
makes no distinction

between young and old-- I don't
see why our trial should.

ATTORNEY:
'Cause the FDA
is the controlling agency.

BETTENCOURT: No, the FDA
is the advising agency.

Hasn't this administration
been saying

follow the science,
not the politics?

And you believe that the science
will benefit this young patient?

I wouldn't be here if I didn't
believe it, Your Honor.

Okay. And what about you,
young man? Anything from you?

I'm from next door.

NILSSON:
Oh.

All right, come on.

Come on. Tommy's up in his room.

Okay, here's the thing.

Motion is sustained.

The court will allow
the admittance of Dustin...

-Gish.
-Gish...

be accepted into
this clinical trial.

Now it's Saturday, and I
have to play with my grandkids.

Thank you for
the entertaining distraction.

DIANE:
Thank you, Your Honor.

Uh, we-we're gonna need
your signed approval,

per the judge's ruling.

I can text it to you right now.

-The only problem...
-LIZ: Yes?

The judge passively overruled
the FDA permission.

The FDA disagrees,
but will honor his ruling

but that doesn't mean the FDA
will pay for the clinical trial.

Oh, come on!

$9 million.

That's how much one gene therapy
clinical trial costs.

LIZ:
Damn it.

The FDA doesn't approve
the funding.

-What about the NIH?
-What about it?

2019 medical journal.

Article says NIH systematically

underfunded sickle cell research
for racist reasons.

Does the family qualify
for Medicaid?

I-I don't know.

Um, they're not rich.

It's a possibility.
Sue Medicaid.

O-Okay, all right,
Ri'Chard and I will take on NIH.

-Diane, you take Medicaid.
-DIANE: Good.

-Okay.
-Okay, good, good.

One hurdle cleared,
onto the next.

Thanks a lot, sir.

-You were fantastic.
-Thank you.

(children laughing)

He doesn't say that
to many people,

so thank you.

-I'm in.
-Great.

The donor number is 341-A67.

Can you get the personal info?

JAY:
Rowan Carter.

Brownsville, Tennessee.

There's a number.

Marissa, you are defying
the laws of physics right now.

I'm... What?

You're in two places at once.

Um...

-What are you doing here?
-Hmm?

Oh, I delayed my trip
to St. Barts.

I brought us some crab cakes
and grits.

I also thought
you might need this.

-Mm, Mindy, I'm working.
-(computer chiming)

Well, I can just take the phone
right back with me.

I-I need to get this, okay?

Please.

(chiming continues)

(breathes deeply)

-Hello?
-Rory.

Finally we connect.

Thank you so much
for your bone marrow offer.

It-it just, um,
means the world to my client.

Your client?

Wait, when I saw your picture,
I thought you were the client.

No. Is that a problem?

I want my bone marrow
in a woman,

preferably a hot woman.

Well, Rory, uh, let me send you
a photo of my client

and then you can be the judge.

(laughs nervously)

'Cause she approves of me
sending some photos

-from a recent lingerie shoot.
-(computer whooshes)

She's a little worried
with recent chemo

that she might be
a little... thin.

But she still has her hair,
right?

Oh, yeah.

Luckily, she's one of the 35%
that didn't lose her hair.

Except on her genitalia.

RI'CHARD:
We can't get in?

No, we can't get in.

The National Institutes
of Health

would be happy to wait
until Monday,

-if you prefer, Your Honor.
-JUDGE: No, you don't.

No one gets to use this nonsense
to avoid making an argument.

You dragged me away
from my Saturday card club

for an emergency hearing,

so we're gonna hold
the damn hearing.

Everyone get set up.

-Uh, where, Your Honor?
-Here.

Why not?
"The halls of justice" indeed.

This article, "Racial Bias
in Clinical Trials,"

lays out the NIH's chronic,
pervasive underfunding

of sickle cell research,
and according to its author...

Right. "Its author."
Who is this author, Your Honor?

-Where is he?
-Doctor, uh, Mitchell Wattly

is a distinguished professor
of medical history

and a licensed medical doctor

who teaches at
the University of Chicago.

Defendant moves to exclude.

I can't cross-examine
an article.

Mr. Lane, why haven't
you brought Mr. Wattly...

-Dr. Wattly.
-Your Honor,

this is an emergency hearing,

-it's a Saturday...
-I'm here.

She's here.

Dr. Wattly can put down
his tennis racket and join us.

I would be honored to testify.

I'm very proud of that article.

RI'CHARD (over phone):
Good, good, um,

I can't right now.

-LIZ: Wh... uh, why?
-(door opens)

-LIZ: Wh... uh, why?
Actually I'm in rehab.

-LIZ: -Okay. uh, why?
-But my wife disagrees.

-But Evanston. Why?ees.

so you can give your testimony

and then, uh,
we'll drop you back off?

Good to meet you.

How long do I have before court?

Uh, we're headed there
right now.

Uh, Dr. Wattly,
we are so impressed

with your insights
into racial disparity...

I have this really bad taste
in my mouth.

Could-could we make
a stop up ahead

so I can get a pack of gum?

Uh, it'll only take a minute.

Oh, there!

LIZ:
Uh... I don't know.

I-I just need some gum.

It-It's no big deal.

(liquid pouring)

So you're Carmen's...?

Workmate.

And you're...

Her girlfriend.

Hmm.

So you noticed...?

That we look alike? Yep.

Is it...?

Weird?

Oh, yeah.

What are we to read into that?

I have no fucking idea.

But tell Carmen to figure out

who she really wants
to sleep with.

JAY:
Marissa, I've got another.

Oh, uh, okay.

-It was just taken down
from the database.
-Okay.

MARISSA:
Hello, is this Patrick Stringer?

Yes, it is,
but I can't help you.

Uh, you turn out to be
but a perfect match ou.

desperate for your bone marrow.

-All he needs is...
-This is Dustin Gish, right?

I'm the donor who backed out
-This i this morning. right?

I can't help you.

Why not? What's wrong?

If you're worried
about the operation,

it's not as painful as...

No, I'm not worried
about the operation.

I don't know. Tell us.

My sister just had
a kidney failure.

I have to make a choice,
so I choose my sister.

My sister is more important
so than a stranger.r.

If I found a kidney
so for your sister, .r.

When's your sister's operation?

Next week.

and give me until
the end of the day, okay?

We're experts at this kind
of organ search.

Promise me?

That's all I need. Just hope.

Okay. I'll send you
the blood type and diagnostics.

and they'll have to break a rib,
the so find a female kidney,s.

the so (phone disconnects) ey,.

The donor's name

-to somebody else.
the -Then what's the problem? e.

and he can't donate

t his bone Any leads? his kidne,

t All right, Carmen, anything?e,

but it's in a donor
t All rifetishist group.thing?e,

I'm sorry, what?

There are groups of fetishists
who get off on donating organs,

blood and marrow to sexy women.

Okay, okay.

Uh, we-we're suing the NIH

to pump more funds
into sickle cell research.

And we're going after Medicaid.

Good, good. Uh, thank you all.

I'm-I'm, um...

I'm moved.

Um, we-we'll keep in touch.

(door opens, bell jingles)

Dr. Wattly, you were
just supposed to get gum.

I did. Let's go.

(door opens, closes)

The doctor should be calling
within the next hour

to set up the appointment.

You're saving Heather's life
and she is gonna be so grateful.

Uh, do you think
I get to meet her?

As soon as she's recovered
from surgery.

I know that she is gonna want
to thank you personally.

-WOMAN: What's going on?
-Uh...

-Who is that?
-No, it's just, uh, someone. Uh.

You've got ten seconds
to tell me who you are, lady.

-Who are you?
-I'm his mother,

that's who, and I'm ending
this conversation.

-Don't contact him again.
-Mom.

You need to stop promising
your organs to strangers.

-(pouring liquid)
-Getting anywhere?

-No. You?
-No.

Oh, your-your friend
said she had to leave.

Thanks.

I saw you two talking.

What was... what was that about?

Nothing.

The weather, favorite colors,

how we look so much alike.

Yeah, I noticed.

Really? Just today?

'Cause your friend
said to tell you,

"Figure out who you want
to sleep with, then call."

Oh, Marissa,
I met her in a club.

She is nothing like you.
Nothing.

And she started doing her hair
like that later.

Got it.

Are we not friends
because of that?

No, we're friends.

What are you talking about?

No, we're not.

We were, but we're not now.

Look, I was... short with you
that time

because I was frustrated.

I can't show weakness in my job,

and when I'm around you,
I tend to be...

nicer.

I make you nicer?

No, that is not what...

Well, okay, y-you do. Okay?

Because I'm a good person:
just say it.

You are a good person.

Okay, good, because I've been
missing you as a friend.

Yeah, I've been missing you.

Clearly. You've been fucking
my doppelgänger.

Okay, I'm going back to work.

(laughs):
Wait.

How've you been doing?

Not great.

Work is hard.

Yeah. Me, too.

Is that why the combat pants?

Krav Maga, baby.

I think I'm going
to ask my instructor out.

Oh, really?

I think he likes me.

He'll probably drag me back
to a kibbutz,

and want 12 children.

-I could see that.
-All boys.

You'll have to come visit me,
and we'll have a torrid affair.

(laughs)

Would it be weird if we hugged?

Okay, help me out.

I think I have a lead
on a kidney.

CARMEN:
Good.

(elevator bell dings)

Thank you.
Thank you so much, Delia,

for coming down here.

Hi, Dustin. How are you?

Great.

Yes, actually,
you-you look great.

I'd say this is one of
his better days, right, honey?

It's, uh, the painkillers.

Well, I'm happy to hear that.

Um... Delia,
can I talk to you a second?

Yeah.

Listen, we're trying
to convince the judge

to finance Dustin's
gene therapy,

so we said he would die
within a week.

That is true.

But he doesn't look like that.

You want him to look
not so good?

I don't want to ask that.

Just give me ten minutes.

Dustin knows what you want.

When I did my research
on funding for sickle cell,

I wanted to compare it
to the funding available

for another similar condition.

And what was that?

Cystic fibrosis.

Like sickle cell disease,
it's inherited... (hiccups)

And, uh, were there any
important differences?

Sickle cell
affects 1 in 365 people,

and cystic fibrosis
affects 1 in 2,500 people.

So sickle cell disease
is much more common?

Yes. Much more.

Much, much more.

-Much, much...
-Okay, so, uh,

what did you conclude, Doctor?

The main difference in funding

is sickle cell affects
mostly Black people,

and cystic fibrosis
affects white.

Objection, Your Honor.

Not in evidence.

-We just put it in evidence,
Your Honor.
-Overruled.

Seems pretty racist to me.

Okay. I've heard enough.

Give me 30 minutes
and I'll rule.

Thank you, Your Honor.

Dustin has spent
the last three years

in and out of the hospital,
and I'm a single mom.

So even if I get a windfall
or-or a gift or...

(coughing)

Um, Your Honor, can I...

Oh, yes, please.

(coughing continues)

ATTORNEY:
Your Honor, even if
Mrs. Gish's yearly income...

DIANE:
Ms. Gish. She is a single mom.

(breathes deeply)

Malcolm really likes you.

(laughs quietly)

I like kids.

What are your plans for my firm?

I think it's our firm, isn't it?

Your story about being
embarrassed by that firm--

the name partner showing
how inadequate you were

by using a laser pointer--

that was my dad.

Let's talk about this
another time.

I'd rather right now.

No. No.

Now is about my nephew.

JUDGE:
Okay.

(sighs):
Here's the bottom line:

this court finds
the National Institute of Health

liable for racial discrimination

and rules that they cover
the cost

of the gene editing procedure.

Your Honor,
the NIH intends to appeal.

Ms. Kuo, if you appeal,

this boy won't have a definitive
answer for another year.

Likely two.

-He will die waiting.
-Actually, the unseemly haste

with which this hearing
has been conducted

is one of the issues
I intend to take up

with the Seventh Circuit
Court of Appeals.

What have you got?

LIZ:
We won,

DIANE:
Yeah, same here.

they want to exhaust
their legal options.

t Carmen and Marissa.

Yes, we're doing our best
to make it work for today.

-No, unfortunately
not that late.
-Uh-huh. Yeah, today.

CARMEN:
We have a skin graft
if you need it,

but we're gonna have to have
a promise from you.

Oh, no, you wouldn't need
to do that. We would send...

Well, it is getting a little bit
complicated with where

we're getting the organs from

but everything's gonna
work out fine.

Oh, no, I'm-I'm sure
we can make that work.

So Patrick donates his
bone marrow to Dustin Gish

and in exchange, he gets a
kidney for his sister, Jenny,

-but...
-The kidney was donated

by the Valdez family
from a daughter dying of COVID,

and they also have a son who
needs a lung lobe to survive.

Jesus.

I am inspired and depressed

by what it takes to stay alive.

CARMEN:
So we got the lung lobe
from the O'Briens.

They need a skin graft
due to a recent infection.

So where does that leave us?

CARMEN:
Uh, one step away.

We got the skin graft from a
young woman in Detroit, but...

LIZ:
But what?

She wants an egg donor.

We don't have access
to any egg databases

so... fun times.

We were just about
to flip a coin

to see who gives up an egg.

-Oh, my God. (laughs)
-I actually think

we were going
to arm wrestle for it.

-Okay.
-But, uh, we warned them

that the mother would either
be Black or Jewish

so either one half of America
will hate their child,

or the other half will.

Oh, why stop there?
Maybe both halves will.

You two are amazing.

Three.

RI'CHARD:
Three.

I wish I had words. I don't.

Wh-When Dustin is 20 years old
and about to go to college,

I'm bringing him back here to
meet the people who saved him.

You are all amazing.

And, um, I have officially
adopted you.

We're all family now.

-(Ri'Chard laughs)
-All right.

Heads or tails?

Uh... tails.

They're getting him ready
right now.

We've got the bone marrow,
so we're ready.

Thank you.
It has been such a strange day.

-Thank you.
-Wait.

Can I talk to my uncle?

Yeah, uh, wait, Rich?

Dustin's about to start
the treatment.

He wants to tell you something.

-Okay.
-Okay.

-(squeaks)
-(recording): Uncle Rich,

and I'm going to spend my life
-(re making you proud.ch,

(cries quietly)

(sighs, sniffles)

Kiss him for me.

And, uh, just so you know,
we're-we're celebrating here.

Tell him to get better soon,

because he has made his uncle
too emotional tonight.

I'll let you go. Love you.

-RI'CHARD: Don't be stingy.
-(upbeat music playing)

-(laughing)
-Thank you, man.

-JAY: Yeah.
-(laughter)

RI'CHARD:
Hey, Liz!

Mal-Calm! Come on!

All right,
just give me one second.

I'm rearranging
our camping trip.

Who wants to camp?

Camp here. We got pizza.

MALCOLM:
Oh, pizza is my survival food.

(excited chattering)

(music and chattering continue)

I found a great idea
for a glamping site. I'll call.

Butlers will bring you pheasant.

It's wonderful.

(laughs)

First,
here's to a successful day.

So, um,
are we having it out now?

Well, I have some questions
that I want answered,

so you tell me.

Let's have it out now.

What are you doing with my firm?

Turning it into
the top firm in Chicago.

Not the top Black firm,
not the top medium-sized firm;

just the top fucking firm.

With the Lord's help.

-As revenge against my father?
-Yes.

Sure.

Which means kicking me out?

No. Because you're
gonna help me.

Do you know why?

I originally thought
I would get rid of you

and all your partners.

But...

Today.

The way your team
works together.

It's moved me.

How sweet.

(laughs):
Look, Liz,

I am a brand.

Your father was a brand,
but he's toxic now.

And that's why I'm taking over.

But I want to keep all of you.

Ri'Chard & Associates.

(laughs)

-Oh, my God.
-What?

The arrogance here
is just blinding.

My lawyers don't want to work
for a brand.

Oh, sure, they do.

If it's that or unemployment.

We want to make a difference,
not sell T-shirts.

Oh, my goodness, Noam Chomsky.

How do you think we make
a difference?

By all screaming
and waving our arms?

No, by falling in
behind one name.

One man. One parade.

Ri'Chard.

(laughs)

You are so egotistical, it...

Damn right, damn right, and
that's how you get things done.

One name and an army behind it.

It'd be your name, except...

"Reddick" is over.

My name is the next revelation.

Well, we're gonna fight
for this.

Oh, yeah.

But first,
we get rid of STR Laurie.

Then we can go at each other.

(music and chattering continue
in other room)

(phone beeps)

Dr. Bettencourt, um,
I mean Lyle, hi.

I just want to say thank you
for all you did today.

It actually worked out.

Dustin is going to get
his bone marrow transplant.

So, just want to say thank you

and I hope I can repay you...

(gasps)

(traffic sounds)

(tires screeching,
horns honking)
