MARK:
Previously on All Rise...

Gloria Hernandez,
residential burglary,

grand theft, gun possession.
She's a real peach.

My sister
is all that matters.

When our parents died,
the only thing I had left

was my sister and skating.
Could I ask a favor?

- EMILY: Yeah.
- Could you keep an eye

- on Maddie for me?
- Absolutely.

- Lola.
- Dre.

Andre is your Dre,

love of your life
from college, Dre.

Andre Armstrong is in town.
Do you even remember him?

I remember
he was a damn fool.

♪

I can't remember
the last time deliberations

for a murder trial
came back this fast.

Yeah, that's usually
not a great sign,

for my clients, anyway.

- [elevator clattering]
- [bell dings]

That's not great either.

[Emily sighs]

I'm glad it got glowing
reviews from your coworkers,

but I needed to see
the place first

and I would appreciate
being kept in the loop.

I don't think that's
an unreasonable request.

Yeah. Robin,
we will talk about this later.

I've got to go. Bye.

My husband
has an annoying habit

of making important
life decisions without me.

You're still struggling
to find childcare?

Not anymore, apparently.

Sounds like
Robin found Bailey a daycare

and dropped her off this morning
with complete strangers.

Well, at least
she's not going out

on stakeouts
with him anymore.

He was joking about getting
her a bulletproof vest

and making
her his full-time partner.

At this point, I wouldn't
put anything past that man.

Here is your updated calendar
for the rest of the day.

And I've just been
notified the jury

for the Placentia murder trial
has reached a verdict.

That was a quick.

[intriguing music]

Your Honor, how long
do we plan to wait for counsel?

[whispering] Sara and Miss Lopez
are stuck in the elevator.

The fire department
is already working on it.

Yo, can we just
get this shit over with?

Mr. Banks, language.

Am I guilty or not?
Just read the verdict.

- SARA: We're here.
- Sorry, sorry. I'm sorry.

About time, Miss Lopez.

Miss Lopez. Hello.

Glad it all worked out.

Our apologies, Your Honor.

Back on the record,
People v William Banks.

Now that all parties
are present and accounted for,

let's resume.

- Bailiff.
- [door creaks open]

- Has the jury reached a verdict?
- We have, Your Honor.

Thank you.

Will the defendant
please stand?

"The Superior Court
of the People of California

"in the matter of the People
v William Banks

"as to count one a violation...

- I can't do this.
- Yes, you can.

Just take
a deep breath.

"We, the jury
in the above entitled action,

"find the defendant guilty."

Mr. Banks, you're looking
at life in prison.

Is something
about that amusing to you?

Nah, I was just
remembering the look

on Stephanie's face
when the life left her eyes.

- That was pretty amusing.
- Mr. Banks, that is enough.

Bailiff.

- Stop. Don't do that.
- Get off me.

- Order. Bailiff.
- [gavel banging]

- EMILY: Hey!
- I'm going to kill you.

I promise you that.
I promise you.

LOLA: Bailiff. Order.

- [Sara gasping]
- You okay, babe?

- I'm gonna get somebody, okay?
- EMILY: Let me see.

[panting]

Okay, it's okay. It's okay.

[Sara gasping] Oh!

[dramatic music]

♪

We've got to find someplace new.
This feels sleazy.

This is exciting
it's like a spy movie.

You'd make a terrible spy.
You talk too much.

That's why
I'm a good prosecutor.

True. God, today I felt
like a referee.

It was terrible.
What the hell was that?

I can't say I wouldn't have
done the same thing.

Well, let's hope
you never have to.

Listen, do you want
to come to the game

with me and Amy tonight?
I got an extra ticket.

- Clippers or Lakers?
- Neither, billionaires.

- The who now?
- L.A. Billionaires.

New minor league team.

- Oh, yeah.
- The owner is a client

at Amy's firm.

- So, we get a skybox.
- Nice.

- Have you seen the new arena?
- Nope.

It is unbelievable.
They got this buffet--

I would love to come and have a
drink or three with you and Amy,

but I got to relieve Robin
of daddy day care duty.

Whatever.
More wings for me, sucker.

- Bye.
- Bye!

[upbeat music]

I was there trying
to put out the fire.

Arson of a structure.

They even threw in
an enhancement for damaging

multiple structures. I guess
they were feeling generous.

Man, listen, our encampment
got raided by the police again,

so I grabbed
everything I could,

and I made my way
to the one under the 405.

Before I got there,
I could see the bonfires

from blocks away,

but it turns out
they weren't bonfires.

The entire damn
encampment was on fire,

so I ran over
and tried to help.

The swap test confirm
that you were covered

in the same accelerant
that caused the blaze.

That's not a good look. Do you
have an explanation for that?

No, I don't know, I-- I--

Everything happened so fast. I--

Cyrus, you've got
a good list of priors,

but it's all
low level, nonviolent.

The one that sticks out
is the strike for burglary.

No,
I didn't steal anything.

I caught a case
for taking back my property

from a landlord
who stole it from me.

And they slapped me
with two years.

But I volunteered
to help fight the wildfires.

And they-- well,
I got out in one.

So, this isn't your
first time around a fire.

[tense music]

[paper rustling]

EMILY: Hi.

How you feeling?

Oh, like a million bucks.

Are you hungry?
Let me take you out for a bite.

Thanks for the offer, but...

between the taste
of blood in my mouth

and the crime scene
photos on my desk,

I don't really have
much of an appetite.

I'll just go on home.

[Sara sighs]

I hate that
this happened to you.

Yeah, well,

if everyone were always
nice to each other

we wouldn't have jobs,
would we?

[Sara sighs]
I'll call you tomorrow.

Okay.

[phone buzzing]

Hello.

- Miss Lopez.
- Gloria.

- Hi. What's going on?
- Hey, um...

by any chance, have you
spoken with my sister Maddy?

No, is something wrong?

I haven't
heard from her in a week.

She hasn't
called or visited even.

- And that's not really like her.
- Okay.

Yeah. Tell me--
tell me what you need.

I want you
to help me find my sister.

You said if I ever
needed anything to reach

out to you,
so now I'm reaching out.

Or is that just
something you guys say

- to make yourselves feel good?
- Gloria. Just--

Just take a breath, okay?

Do you have any idea
where she might be?

She's probably
at the mini mansion.

- The mini mansion?
- Yeah.

Brandon Page's pad.

The Internet guy?
Why is she hanging out there?

Okay, that
is not important right now.

I just need

Okay? [sighs]

- Gloria?

[scoffs]

[tense music]

Young guns,
you know what day it is.

Today is final day

So, have and your loot

not a second later.

Winners will be announced
at noon tomorrow.

Let's go.

[heavy rock music]

[crowd chattering]

I can't believe that
woman said no

in front of 15,000 people
on the fan cam.

Proposals at sporting
events are awful.

I mean, who was the first idiot
to think that was a good idea?

I mean,
women don't want to be subjected

- to that kind of humiliation.
- To be fair,

I don't think she was the one
who got humiliated.

Exactly.
Let that be a lesson.

Maybe you guys
will stop doing it.

Whoa, you guys?

My proposal was frickin' epic.

[Amy groans]

Speaking of men
who've proposed to you,

how's your husband doing?

It sounds like
his new meds have him feeling

- a lot better.
- That's great news.

Hey, you know, it's too
bad you didn't take him

to a basketball game and serve
him with his divorce papers

- on the fan cam.
- [groans] Don't do this.

- Not tonight.
- Trust me, no one

is more tired
of this conversation than I am.

And I have tried to be
empathetic, but, like,

he's taking advantage
of the situation.

- Can we just call an Uber?

an accident,

Mark?

MARK: Yeah, yeah, I'll hold.

MAN: Holy shit.

[upbeat instrumental music]

Good morning, Your Honor.

- This is for you.
- Thank you.

Dropping
Bailey off at daycare,

grabbing breakfast
and getting to the office

only took 45 minutes.

- Can you believe that?
- Wow.

So, you're having
a change of heart

about Bailey's
daycare situation.

I have to admit,
Robin was onto something.

The daycare is gorgeous.

I even had to sign an NDA

because of all
the celebrities that drop

- the kids off there.
- Like who?

What about a non-disclosure
agreement

don't you understand?

That's boring.

They have
vegan catering options.

The kids are drinking
artisanal fruit water.

I grew up on juice boxes
and baloney sandwiches.

I don't need Bailey getting
used to this lap of luxury.

We can't afford it long term.
It's $300 a day.

Well, then you
will be glad to know

that I have put together
a short but diverse list

of childcare candidates
for you and Robin to interview.

Hmm. After the stenographers
that you picked out,

I'm not holding my breath.

Um, ouch.

- I can cancel.
- I'm kidding.

I appreciate you. I need you.

I don't know
what I would do without you.

- That's more like it.
- Thank you.

My apologies. Rory Fires.

- Luke Watkins.
- And what do you have for me,

- Mr. Watkins?
- Straight to the point.

I can appreciate that.
Outside of loitering

and trespassing in abandoned
buildings to keep warm at night,

the only thing that my client
is guilty of is being homeless.

He needs a warm meal and a roof
over his head, not prison time.

There is video footage
of Mr. Calleja at the scene.

His fingerprints
were the only discernible ones

found on the torch
that was used to start the fire.

- Does seem a bit dodgy.
- You can't prove malice.

We're talking about
a few months in county

- and some fines at worst.
- He used a torch.

I could very easily make
a reasonable argument

for aggravated arson.
With his prior strike,

you'd be looking
at 20 years to life.

Instead, the three-year
minimum I would've

offered is doubled with
prior strike enhancements,

so we find ourselves at six.

I'll drop
the rest of the charges,

and if he's a good boy,

he'll be out in three or four.

- Come on, Rory.
- He's a career criminal.

Judge Marshal could very well

impose a much stiffer sentence

if this goes to trial
and you lose,

and you will lose, Mr. Watkins.

Another strike
would ruin his life.

Split the difference,
non-strike, PC 452.

Maybe he'll learn
to behave himself.

Six years.

All right,
so, I got to ask,

did the attorneys
at Wayne County really call you

the Grim Reaper
because you never lost a case?

The Grim Reaper moniker
may be the byproduct

of an overly vivid
imagination, I'm afraid.

But it is true
that I have never lost.

Well, there's plenty
of time to change that.

And when my client
beats these charges,

I'll take you
out for a beer.

Pleasure meeting you,
Mr. Watkins.

I look forward
to that pint, cheerio.

♪

[exhales]

How was the game last night?

Ugh, it was-- [chuckles]

How do you already
know about last night?

Because I got a call
from the co-owner himself.

- For what?
- The guy behind the wheel

was the mascot for his team.

Only a matter of time
before a civil

suit comes their way.

But before we worry

about that lawsuit,

he wants us to act as counsel

for the same employee
for the criminal case.

If he wants us
to double bill him,

I'm fine with that.

Why doesn't he just
fire the kid to save face?

Because that kid is his son.

Of course it is. [scoffs]

Well, give it
to one of the juniors.

Are you too good to work
a lowly DUI case now?

You know I can't be
anywhere near that case.

I was a witness,
but I will gladly

represent myself
on the assault charges coming

if you don't get
out of my office.

- All right.
- Buh-bye.

[both chuckling]

- Oh, Mr. Callan.
- What's up, Teddy?

I received
this file from the CEU.

There must be
a mistake here.

This felony DUI case
has you listed as a witness.

Yeah, that's not a mistake.
Believe it or not,

being a D.A. does not preclude
me from witnessing some

of the wonderful things that
happen outside of this office.

Right, but it should exclude
the DA's office

from trying this case.
We should recuse ourselves

and have the attorney
general handle it.

There's an obvious conflict
of interest here, no?

Small potatoes for the AG, Teddy.

The size
of the potatoes and ethics

- aren't mutually exclusive.
- Teddy, just shoot

this guy a decent deal,
throw another one

up the win column,
then move on to the next.

Luckily, the pedestrian
was not seriously hurt.

Part of being
a successful prosecutor--

- time management, okay?
- Mr. Callan,

while I would never
second guess your judgment--

Hold that thought.

Hey.
How are you holding up?

I'm not sure what's worse.

Being trapped in an elevator

88 stories off the ground,

or climbing up
10 flights in heels.

That sounds like
a lose-lose.

Sara, listen,
I got to ask you something.

I think
I know the answer, but...

do you want to press charges
against Pascale Placentia?

No. That family's
been through enough.

You sure? We can have the case
transferred to another advocate.

Mark, I'm fine. Okay?

- Anything else?
- Actually, yes.

Um, Miss Placentia,
she's in a bit of a bind

after paying for Stephanie's
burial and funeral costs.

Is there any way we can
expedite filing that paperwork

- to get her reimbursed?
- Yeah.

I'll reach out
to Ms. Placentia today.

Okay.

Also,
they need assistance

with crime scene
cleanup services

before they can
move back into their house.

So, ServePro is asking for files
of the damage,

if you can just send
them those photos--

- Yeah, yeah. Okay, I got it.
- ... it can move forward.

Before we begin today's hearing,
I have to ask, Mr. Calleja,

would you happen to be
the son of Juan Antonio Calleja?

Yes, I am. Your Honor.

- Why?
- Small world.

I played basketball with AC.

We were thick
as thieves in high school.

How's he doing?

Antonio...

passed away last year.

I'm very sorry
to hear that.

Now,
while I haven't seen you

since you were a child,
it's unfortunate

that this reunion isn't under

- better circumstances.
- [Rory clears his throat]

Your Honor,
I'd like to inform you

that the people have
withdrawn the original offer

and are looking to add
supplementary charges.

Objection.
On what grounds?

Overruled.

- What-- what does that mean?
- That things

just got a whole
lot more complicated.

We have received
substantial evidence

connecting Mr. Calleja
to half a dozen more fires

over the last two years.

And since I'm
new to this office,

I wasn't made privy to
these cold cases.

Or hot cases,
if you pardon the pun?

Your Honor, we'd like a chance
to review the new discovery.

Outside of a few fingerprints
and people claiming

they saw a homeless man
at homeless encampments,

- do you have any real evidence?
- We have

eyewitness
testimony of Mr. Calleja

frequenting
all of the targeted encampments.

His fingerprints
and his fingerprints alone

were found on the torch,

which was used to start
the blaze under the 405.

The evidence is irrefutable.

There is no way
that he could've done

all of this,
he was incarcerated.

Not a single one of these fires

occurred while
Mr. Calleja was behind bars.

Prosecution's
motion is granted.

- What? Your Honor.
- Thank you, Your Honor.

The amended charges are two
counts of malicious arson

causing great bodily injury
and two counts for the arson

of an inhabited structure.

The People will be
seeking the maximum for each.

Why are you
railroading my client?

I wasn't finished,
Mr. Watkins.

Prior strike enhancement

sees these penalties doubled

for a total of 37 years
and eight months.

No, no, no. This is bullshit.
I didn't do this.

I swear on everything
that I didn't do this.

Watch your language,
Mr. Calleja.

Or I will hold you
in contempt of court.

Is that understood?

Yes, Your Honor.

[dramatic music]

It's my understanding
that both parties

- have reached a plea agreement.
- Yes, Your Honor.

Since this is
Mr. Dunham's first offense

with relatively minor injuries,
the People are charging this

as a non strike felony DUI
with minimum penalties.

It does look like
Mr. Dunham might've been

on the receiving end
of the worst of it.

I won't ask you to stand.

Mr. Dunham,
do you understand

that by pleading no contest,

you are giving up
your rights to a trial

and all rights
associated with a trial?

Yes, Your Honor.

The defendant has agreed
to accept three years

of summary probation,
penalties totaling $5,000,

a three-month court-approved
alcohol education program

and restitution to the
injured party. Is that correct?

ANDRE: Excuse
the interruption, Your Honor.

But I think
we can come up with

more favorable terms
for Mr. Dunham.

♪

ANDRE: It's good to see
you again, Judge Carmichael.

Mr. Armstrong,
I didn't see your name

on my calendar.

I was under the impression

you were on a plane back to DC.

If you returned my texts,
you would've know that

[indistinct] and his sources

decided to make
a last minute substitution.

As one of the new faces
of the firm, we thought it best

if I personally oversee
this case

for our new
high profile client--

the Los Angeles Billionaires.

If Mr. Biswas agrees to knock
this down to a misdemeanor,

with the required minimums,
we can end this thing right now,

And I'll still have time
to make my flight.

Absolutely not. I offered
Mr. Dunham a reasonable deal,

one significantly less
than he would have received

for putting someone
in the hospital.

Well, there you have it.

I'll cancel my travel plans,
and I look forward

to working with both of you.

Judge Carmichael,

do you know Mr. Armstrong,
like, personally?

Is there something
you're trying to imply?

No, ma'am.
I just-- I just--

- Because I--
- Have a good day, Mr. Biswas.

[tense, jazzy music]

RORY: Captain Monroe,
were you able to determine

- the cause of the fire?
- Yes.

The blaze was intentionally
set with a drip torch.

Photos of said device,
Your Honor,

found at the crime scene

and pre-marked
as Prosecution Exhibit A.

Captain, why is the use
of a drip torch significant?

You ever heard the expression,
fight fire with fire?

- I have.
- Drip torches are used

for control burns.
Used improperly,

they can be
incredibly destructive.

So, these fires
are the work of an arsonist.

- Objection. Leading.
- Sustained.

How would you
categorize these fires?

As the work of an arsonist.

And who is it
that typically employs

the use of a drip torch?

They're commonly
used by Cal Fire crews

during the wildfire season.

Was Mr. Calleja
employed as a member

of the Cal Fire
Inmate program?

That is correct.

No further questions.

it was different.

He loved

He was damn
good at it, too.

So, I'm having
a hard time believing

he was behind all this.

What makes you say that?

The young man was on my crew

during one of the worst
fire seasons

in decades.

I saw
the look in his eyes.

I-- I saw
tears in his eyes

every time
we couldn't save a house.

He told me something
I will never forget.

He said, "I don't have
a place to go home,

"and I don't want
anybody else to know

- "what that feels like."
- Damn.

- Talk about perspective.
- Mm.

I'm trying to figure out
how Cyrus would have had access

- to these drip torches.
- Inmates weren't allowed

to handle torches,
for obvious reasons.

They were under heavy
supervision, so there's no way

- he could've stolen one.
- Okay.

The investigator
who testified today

placed Cyrus
near all these fires.

Mm-hmm.

That's what
I'm struggling with.

Now, you mentioned that you were
on the arson team, right?

That's right. Worked my ass

- investigators in L.A. County.
- Okay. 22.

- That doesn't seem like many.
- It's not.

There are 3,500

Okay, but what are the chances

Wow, that's something.

Huh.

EMILY: Wow.

See, sometimes calling

Yeah, about that.

chasing a teenager
around L.A. County

like Carmen Sandiego.

Her sister
was really worried about her,

so I tracked her down
at Brandon Page's house.

That guy
who's always on TMZ

for pulling
pranks on people?

- That's the one.
- Should I even ask

why he's got
a teenage girl at his house?

Sounds sketchy.

Yeah.

Cyrus, why were your prints
all over that torch?

I need you
to be honest with me.

On God, I've never used one of
those things in my entire life.

Look, when I got there,
the smoke was so thick,

I couldn't see two feet
in front of my face.

I had my shirt
covering my mouth.

I was crawling around
on my hands and knees

making sure
everybody was out safe.

I grabbed a fire extinguisher,
but the thing was out of juice.

I did everything I could.
There wasn't much I could do.

- So, I took off.
- Cyrus,

there was no extinguisher.

They only found a torch.

Hold on, wait,
is it possible that you grabbed

the torch thinking
that it was the extinguisher?

- [photos rustling]
- Hold on.

Look at this.

They're nearly identical
in those conditions.

There's no
way you would have known.

You were trying
to do the right thing.

And that explains
the prints.

[Mark sighs]

- Teddy, have you seen Sara?
- Not today.

She's not responding
to my emails,

not answering my calls,
it's just weird.

- It's not like her.
- Mr. Callan,

- can I ask you a question?
- Shoot.

Judge Carmichael
and Mr. Armstrong.

Is there something going on
there that I should know about?

[playful music]

♪

Chambers now.

Mr. Armstrong,
what do you think you're doing?

Providing the best possible
defense for my client.

No, you are trying to turn
my courtroom into a theater.

Keep it up, and I will
hold you in contempt.

- That's not necessary.
- TEDDY: Your Honor.

I've been made aware
of a previous relationship

between you
and Mr. Armstrong,

which is obviously
a conflict of int--

I don't know where you are

getting your information from,
Mr. Biswas,

but I can assure you
there is no conflict.

Now, is there anything else
before I kick you

both out of my chambers?

No, Your Honor.

♪

Courtesy copies
of the records you subpoenaed.

The first
is work schedules and MDTs,

the second, cell phone records
and 911 transcripts.

Thanks, Carrol.

I don't mean to pry,
but is there a reason

that you're investigating
the investigator?

Something just seems off.

I mean, the same investigator
just happened to be

at the right place
at the right time every time?

It's a very
dangerous accusation.

Believe me,
I'm not trying to take on

the entire fire department,
but my client is facing decades

in prison for a crime...

that I don't think
he committed.

Well, you've never
backed away before.

Why start now?

♪

[tense music]

Thank you for taking time
out of your busy schedule

to answer
a few more questions for us.

It's no problem at all.
That subpoena didn't give me

much of a choice, though.

Captain Monroe, what is your
experience with a drip torch?

I have a decade
of experience as a firefighter,

and I'm going into my
sixth year as an investigator.

And you were at each
of the crime scenes, correct?

- Yes, that is correct.
- And you personally

reviewed and collected
all the evidence, right?

- That is also correct.
- Had you visited

any of these locations
prior to your investigations?

- No. Why would I have?
- Interesting.

I'd like to submit
your phone records,

work schedule
and 911 calls into evidence.

These phone records show
that you were present

at each of the fires
that Mr. Calleja is accused of.

Of course,
I was the lead investigator.

The cell towers indicate

that your personal cell phone

was at each
of these locations

hours before
any 911 calls were made.

[suspenseful music]

Are you familiar
with the FBI profile

on firebugs, Captain Monroe?

Arsonists
that moonlight as firefighters.

Objection. Argumentative.

- Overruled.
- That's fine.

Defense rests.

Counsel,
please approach the bench.

I move to have
the charges dismissed

at the conclusion
of this hearing.

Not only is the
prosecution's lead witness

lying under oath,
he's probably the perp.

Mr. Watkins
is a fantastic storyteller,

I will give him that,
but there is more

than enough evidence to go
to trial here, Your Honor.

The evidence
brought to light here

certainly
raises some questions,

and I will take
all of this into consideration.

Let's take a brief recess.

[gavel bangs]

ANDRE: Did you see
the moment of impact?

MARK: Yes.

ANDRE: Did you
remove the driver's mask?

I didn't want to risk
exacerbating any injuries.

So, you didn't see
the driver's face?

No, I did not.
Had you been

- drinking that night?
- Objection. Relevance.

Overruled.

I'd had a few drinks.

So, you were
impaired as well?

Legally, yes,

but that's why I ordered
an Uber.

I was being responsible,
unlike the defendant.

Mr. Callan,
that's enough.

Counsel,
approach the bench.

[Lola sighs]

This trial has been
tiptoeing the precipice

of unprofessionalism.

And quite frankly,
I am done here.

Now, Mr. Armstrong,
your client was offered

a fair deal
that he was ready to accept

before you crashed the party.
Now, I suggest

that you reconsider that deal,
or we can send

this to the attorney general.

If the defendant accepts,
the People

are willing to honor that offer.

Mr. Dunham is an upstanding

member of the community who has

never been in trouble with the

law in any capacity.

He was caught up in the moment

and made a poor decision.

He was driving
under the influence.

My client was taking

- prescribed meds.
- He injured a pedestrian.

Mr. Dunham realizes
he made a mistake,

but that is no reason

to throw
the book at him.

Sometimes true justice
includes the punishments

that aren't given.

In the interest of time
and taxpayer dollars,

the People are willing
to charge this a misdemeanor

with the minimum
penalties assessed.

[tense music]

We appreciate
your understanding.

Counselors,
you may step back.

Mr. Dunham.

Consider yourself
extremely lucky,

not only
because the punishment

could have been
much more severe,

but also
because you are alive

and standing
in this courtroom today.

This new evidence
has cast significant doubt

on the prosecution's case.

As such, I have decided
to dismiss all charges

due to insufficient evidence.

Mr. Calleja,
you're free to go.

[Luke chuckling]

[uplifting music]

- Just going to let him walk?
- No, not quite.

I'd love to have a look
through the notes you compiled

on Captain Munroe so we can
start putting a case together.

I'm going to see to it that man
spends a long time in prison.

Of course,
there is one other thing.

- What's that?
- About that pint.

Well played, sir.

Hey. Come on in.

Shut the door behind you.

Look, um...

I'm sorry about going
AWOL the last couple days.

I think I was having
an existential meltdown,

but that's still
no excuse for my behavior.

MARK: Have a seat.

Sara,
whatever you're going through,

I hope you know
you can always talk to me.

What happened to you
the other day was awful.

This job can be...

terrifying.

And it can be heartbreaking.

It can be
a lot of things.

But whatever it is,

you cannot disappear.

You got too many
people counting on you.

Too many people
who need you.

[Sara sighs]
You know, I've been...

questioning if I have
the strength to be here.

But I know
I want to be here.

Good, because you are
the strongest person I know.

Hey.

You've got this.

[sighs deeply]

You can't be upset with me.
I'm alone in here.

You're alone in here?
I'm alone out there.

Brandon doesn't
care about you either.

He only cares about the money

and attention
that comes along with it.

It's not even like that.

These people are
not your friends, Maddie.

- They're dangerous.
- You're being dramatic.

You promised me that
you would stay away from them.

- You're just jealous.
- Maddie.

- Maddie!
- [door shuts]

LUKE: There he is.

[Sam laughing]

- What are you doing here?
- I'm here because of this guy.

I knew you couldn't
have been involved.

I can't
thank you enough, man.

I'm thinking you should consider

getting yourself an attorney

to file a lawsuit
against the city

for false arrest.

Wouldn't mind a couple bucks

to get a roof over my head.

If you're looking
for a gig to help

make ends meet,
you might be in luck.

The county's
let me start a pilot

- program.
- What's that?

Moving forward,
inmates who serve

as volunteer firefighters
are eligible to attend

academy after
their release.

- For real?
- Yeah.

- Then where do I sign up?
- [all laughing]

Down at the firehouse.

Come on, there's a nice,
warm car waiting for you, too.

I-- I'll give you a ride.

[emotional music]

- Thank you, man.
- Good luck.

Yes. Yes.

[exhales sharply]

I'm proud of Luke.
He did fantastic today.

Kept an innocent man
out of jail.

Your partner,
on the other hand...

What about him?

He turned Lola's courtroom

- into a sideshow.
- What?

One of our juniors was
supposed to oversee that case.

- He didn't tell you?
- Uh, no.

He knows
I would have shut that down.

Oh, your boy was
pulling out all the stops.

Ugh, he and I
will have a little chat.

Speaking of chat...

there was something
I wanted to talk to you about.

I was thinking about
our conversation

- from the other night.
- And?

I don't want you to think
that our life together

is not my top priority,
because it is.

I really appreciate all of
your patience and understanding.

I don't understand.
This Collier thing is crazy--

I promise you,
I will take care of that.

I'm going to have you

It was a treat being

It was nice

Seeing you up there

Thank you, Dre.

I'm proud of you, too.

Some things don't change.

Mm-mm.

Some things

But a lot of things

You know, law school
was the time of my life.

Hmm. I'm sorry you were
in such a rush to go out

But I'd do anything right
now to get those years back.

I find myself
sometimes wondering about

all the fun things
we used to have.

[chuckling]

You remember
that trip to Mexico?

[chuckles] I do.

Dining on the boats
of the Riviera Maya,

surrounded
by the mangroves,

hiking
the ruins at sunset.

Getting food poisoning
so bad that we both almost died.

[Andre laughing]

I mean, going through
it when we were both

trapped in the tiny hotel
room with one bathroom.

[both chuckling]

Yeah.

That'll test
the strongest of loves.
