Original subtitles

How many of his employees are we currently holding in Cord's prison?

- Two. Kwame and Andres. - No, no, no. You have three.

- Kwame, Andres, and Matteo. - No, we only have two.

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

- Not by us. - Your Honor, do not fuck with me.

No one is fucking with you, sir.

We should probably get going.

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".

Educated and a good lay.

Meet me halfway.

No. Tell them, no. We're on vacation.

That's why we turned off our cellphones.

- It might be your work. - No.

It's always the NRA wanting you to defend the latest school shooting.

Hello!

- We were 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.

So they're coming in right now. I need the one from May.

They're coming in right now.

And so we need to show them that we work well together.

They're gonna want to see a financial plan.

Yeah, I'm working on deck right now. We need the last slide there. Julius?

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

- Well, we have ninety minutes. - That's impossible.

Only if you don't get in here.

We need to change a reservation.

Make it an eight o'clock 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. Forget about 2020. It was a disaster.

Multiple indictments, global pandemic.

- What about this one? - Wait. We can't use that one yet.

- Why? - Why?

This is the first major cannabis deal in Illinois.

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

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

Our quarter, without it, is a disaster.

We go from forty-five million to five million.

Yes. So we need to keep Rivi out of jail.

- Hello, Liz? - Carmen, how did it go?

Rivi wasn't at the bond hearing. They 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 Division five now. 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 Farm signed today.

- Okay, I'll do my best. - Call me right when you have him.

- Hello? - Hey, where are you?

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.

- I'm heading into court right now. - Which court?

- Wackner's. - It's not a real court.

It's just as real as a living room.

Rivi's gonna explode when he finds out they're holding his man.

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

Get a continuance.

- 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, Mister Halzapple?

That varies, but last two years 10 000 dollars in property taxes

for three hundred acres, 22 000 in federal,

18 700 in state.

What do those state taxes go to?

Police, government services, pensions, transportation.

There's much call for transportation, police,

and government pensions in Galena?

No. It's all for Chicago and Springfield.

- What's this about? - Our state.

So you're paying taxes mostly for Chicago?

- What are these lights? - 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,

we'll be bankrupt by 2022.

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

Yes, sir. Chicago and downstate Illinois.

Secession!

Stop this obsession with secession and breaking up the union.

It's boring, and it's dumb, end of song.

What the fuck?

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

Yes, the world has required it. What are you doing?

I am judging. Marissa has issues with the case.

Really? Not Marissa.

You're deciding whether Illinois should be two states?

- Sure, why not? - 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. - Hold on!

There's a farmer with a gripe out there. I want to hear it.

That's all. The only way to piss people off is not to listen.

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

- The other court. - What other court?

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. - Single file. One at a time, children.

Is that what you're wearing?

No, no, I just raced over here. I grabbed a pantsuit.

All right. So 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...

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 racist.

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.

Why do white people personalize this?

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're 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...

Now we have 43 minutes to fix race relations,

gender relations.

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

Okay. 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 on stage without any lines.

All rise. The honorable justice Vinetta Clark presiding.

Troy and Missus Harbor, face each other and say after me:

"As God for Christ's sake hath forgiven me..."

Some advice. That's the way my mom used to talk.

- Refer to Jesus a lot. - I'm Jewish.

Oscar?

I'm sorry. How are you?

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 in Seventy First.

Our street has been more peaceful without him.

In the short time we've held him, crime has gone 80 percent.

- 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 any 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? - This is a defense trick.

How is it a trick?

Would Jesus call it a trick?

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

- Where did 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.

Oscar Rivi, back again.

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 Mister ASA back with us, too.

We ask that bail be denied. Rivi is the very definition of a flight risk.

Your Honor, Mister Rivi is now an entrepreneur

who has become co-CEO of a multi-billion-dollar business.

- What fucking business? - Can we not resort to swearing?

- Mister Carruthers. - Plum Meadow Farms.

They signed the contract with him yesterday.

He's making yogurt?

- No, Your Honor. - This is outrageous.

Okay, wait. Miss Moyo, I want the Plum Meadow contract.

Then I'll decide about bail.

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? The corner is where thy people...

I want to hear from Mister 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.

He didn't really mean that. He did not mean that.

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?

There were two murders on our street from narcotics trafficking.

We'd like to investigate Mister 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. - The 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 Wackners's court. I think 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 'til six.

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.

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, I took your suit instead of mine. So fuck it.

That's just usual scheduling bullshit. What does the judge need?

The Plum Meadow contract. The preliminary one. The one they signed.

All right. Wait. Carmen, hold on a second.

Carter. Hi. It's Liz Reddick. How are you?

Good. I think we should talk.

Well, aren't we supposed to meet about the financial reports tomorrow?

We were, but we heard a rumor that our new merger partner is in jail.

No. That's a nasty rumor. In fact, I was just on my way to go meet him.

No, no, Liz. 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. Can you grab Allegra

and go and have a chat with Carter?

- Sure, sure. Follow me. - Thank you.

Carmen, I'm coming right to you. We need bail.

May I help you?

STR Laurie. We're here for Reddick and Lockhart.

They know we're coming.

Let me give them a call.

I appreciate your passion. Take your seats or I'll stop.

We love you!

See this? I love being loved, but sit down! Sit down!

Doctor Goat!

Doctor Goat, can you tell us please exactly what we're looking at here?

This is called the Saint Clair Partition.

An agreement drawn up in 1798 between Andrew Saint Clair,

the first governor of the Northern Territory,

and the United States Congress

It was lost in 1818, and discovered only six years ago.

It is still in effect as legal tender!

- What is this? - History.

- Who is this guy? - Learn something.

This document states irrevocably

that Illinois was always intended to be split into two territories.

The downstate territory known as Thermarum ubi sunt,

the land of the crops,

and the Lake area, known as Et in capitis dolore.

Doctor Goat, exactly, 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. Until I looked on Google.

Who am I to stand in the way?

Quiet down. Wait, wait, wait. Defense has a question.

Quick question, Doctor Goat.

This Latin phrase here, thermarum ubi sunt,

how did you translate that?

The land of the crops.

Google Translate says is means "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.

When you're finished. Mister Goat...

- Doctor Goat. - I'm sorry, Doctor Goat.

If you want me to take this document seriously, bring it in.

Hello. I'm Judge Vinetta Clark.

I heard you wanted to speak to me.

Yes, ma'am. My firm represents a youth that you're holding, Matteo.

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

Have a cinnamon roll.

Thank you.

You look like you're heading to the beach.

Yes. I was just leaving on vacation when I heard I was needed.

Where were you going?

On vacation? Well, it's not important.

I'm a curious woman.

Lake Como. It's in Italy.

Yes, I know where it is. Must be beautiful.

- It is. - So, you've been there before?

Just once. We don't get away often. We thought we'd splurge.

Sounds wonderful.

Ma'am, is it true that you are 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 am sorry.

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.

- That's not my firm. - Actually, It is, Missus 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 me.

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

Did anyone see you with it? Did you throw it away somewhere?

- And have you ever used it? - Diane.

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 Missus Reddick and Missus Lockhart. Thanks for your patience.

We told them we would be here at noon.

Yes, but I think some signals got crossed.

- What do you think? - Give them a few minutes.

It's women. We could just move on.

Install men.

PGA tour?

- You wanna 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.

- Your client is full of... - And you smell like a rose in all this.

You're grasping at straws. You are not holding us for ransom.

This is not ransom. Are you gonna blame me for Mister Rivi's volatilities?

He's not a violent man. The man sells marijuana.

It's my wife's firm. Never a dull moment.

So, you're the new lawyer now?

Yes. Your Honor, I heard that there was a question

about Mister Rivi's new status as a 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.

I don't know who Mister ASA spoke to, but he is absolutely misinformed.

I spoke to the head of their negotiation team, Mister Schmidt.

- There most certainly is a merger. - Just smile, just smile.

The legal team insisted that there were a few deal points left outstanding.

- No, there are not. - There are.

Okay!

Let me take a recess and I will examine these.

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

They want a fifty percent 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.

I might know what's going on. Let me call you back.

- What do you think? - I think you're right.

I think Plum Meadows's worried Oscar is undependable.

They're looking to his number two.

All right. We gotta tell him.

He's gonna explode. He's not gonna believe us.

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 seventeen whatever.

Women weren't even allowed to vote. Black people were still slaves.

We were killing Native Americans.

Woke!

This agreement preceded any treaty formed by the US Congress.

Dean.

Yeah!

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

- You're losing, bitch. Get used to it. - Stop, stop, stop that.

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

One thing you learn a lot about in the back room of a copy shop is paper.

Did you know that paper is 75 percent air?

Air was totally misunderstood until Orville Wright in 1906.

That's why the fiber spacing is so wide.

But in older parchment, the paper is mostly cotton.

And the spacing's 40 percent.

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. Defense, you have any witnesses?

Your Honor, maybe we should take a pause. This is getting ugly.

The truth is ugly. Only thing uglier is not pursuing it.

Do you have any witnesses?

- Why is Cord doing this? - Why don't you ask him?

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.

What about the Schultz and Larsen?

You two are just biased against the English.

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.

Please, stand up, ma'am! Stand up!

- What? Me? - Stand up!

Why do you hold this court in such contempt?

- I don't think I do. - Yes, you do. Gideon.

Years ago, I ran the daycare.

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.

- Come on. This is outrageous! - No, it's the law.

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...

Isabel?

Oscar, she has a share that is equal to yours in your business.

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

You said yourself she was in control of the business when you're in prison.

Yes. She's the mother of my sons!

Yes, 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, her interpreter.

Say your lawyers want you to separate out your business interests.

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.

Hey, Diane, how's it going there?

Not good. I can't make the six o'clock with STR Laurie.

I heard you had bars over here. You drink and shoot in the bar.

- Yeah. In Michigan. - You are joking?

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

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

Hey, babe, where are you?

Well, that might take a little explaining.

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

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

Oscar, I'm so sorry.

My friend, everything will be okay.

So, Mister Cord, why are you interested in this case?

Because I think our country's edging away

from individualism towards socialism.

Stop! Stop, calm down!

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

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

You and I have nothing in common.

Why should you decide for me? Why should I decide for you?

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! 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.

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?

It matters only in so far as we continue to agree that it matters.

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

you can 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!

Court is 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.

Kurt, no, go home. This is crazy.

And miss our first day of vacation?

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.

I'm sorry, babe.

I thought the craziness would end with 2020.

I brought something from your work.

Funny. I brought something from my work

- Gummies? - Yeah.

I've never tried marijuana before.

Really?

It's all the rage.

Okay. I guess we've got a vacation going.

Thank you, Missis 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 Mister Rivi became violent?

Was that question too fast?

Your Honor, the question wasn't too fast.

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

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.

I am just explaining what is obvious here.

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

- Your Honor! Shut her up! - Shut a Black woman up?

Hold on, sports fans! Hey! Hold it! Let's let the witness answer please.

Miss 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, Miss 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.

Thank you, Miss 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 Aztecs

I like the Aztecs. 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 are the funniest man I have ever met.

You're just saying that 'cause I'm high.

I am high, right?

- I should quit, shouldn't I? - What are you talking about?

The 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.

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

I'm the top Karen. And why do I care?

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'm 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, Almighty Kurt,

I think I like starting over.

I like the chutes and ladders of life.

I want the corner office, but then I want to slip back to the beginning

and fight for the corner office.

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, no. I've said it before. See! Let's fuck!

God. I need to get you more gummies.

No, we need to change the music.

I love myself, I want you to love me.

When I feel down, I want you above me.

I search myself, I want you to find me.

I forget myself, I need you to remind me.

Go away! We don't need any food!

I don't want anybody else.

When I think about you, I touch myself.

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 Mister 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!

Stop it!

- Hal ! - You cannot hide, bitch!

God. We gotta call 911.

I don't have any bars. You?

Hold on. I got no service.

USA!

Get out here, judge! Fuck you!

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

- 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?

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! Look out.

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. - Yeah, that's it.

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 it?

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 over there!

- What's going on? - 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 got keys.

Don't you fucking move!

It's okay. They didn't do anything.

They stole your IP. Its good thing we got a call from David Cord.

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.

Fifty percent off all copies.

So, vacation.

- Yep. - 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 ya.

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 them 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 until tomorrow.

I promise, my dog will never do it again.

The court will be very happy to hear it.

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 reviewing Mike's testimony in the court of 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.

I have listened to both sides. And this is my ruling.

I decide for the prosecution. Only white people can own property!

It's the third time that the defendant has referred to the victim as he,

the proper pronoun is they so this court sentences the defendant

to a week in detention.

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

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

Whoever has the best job, keeps custody of the kids.
