All language subtitles for Law & Order s18e15 Bogeyman.eng

NARRATOR:
In the criminal justice system

the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups,

the police
who investigate crime

and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.

These are their stories.

That guy at the bar?

SOFIA: I've never
seen him before.

I think he's with them.

Bradley, don't
even go there.

Great turnout, Gretchen. Did you
forget to send out invitations?

I sent out 200.

Plus ads in The Times,
The Observer and Art World.

SOFIA: Bradley's not going
to sell a single piece.

Maybe it's not what the
market wants right now.

It's your job to tell the
market what it wants.

Maybe if you
were Chinese.

They're destroying us.

Bradley!

Iwouldn't let
that happen, baby.

The car's registered
to a Sofia Cameron,

address across
town on Stanton.

Ms. Cameron's description off her
license matches the victim's.

Now, you got a Glock .26
on the floor here,

nine-mil casing there.

Ah, looks like
a contact wound.

A lot of women
suicide with a gun?

I don't know,
I'm just asking.

There's no hard
and fast rules.

Well, I always
thought with women,

it was either
pills or gas.

You see a note?

LUPO: No, but maybe
she had nothing to say.

Messages and missed calls,

somebody was already
missing her.

Bradley and Mom.

Hey, look at this.

What's the rule on bringing
cupcakes to a suicide?

BERNARD: So, what time did
your wife leave, Mr. Cameron?

Mr. Cameron?

1:00, 1:30.

I was here in my studio.

She went to see her
mother in Morristown.

She goes every Sunday.

How was her mood?

I don't know.

She was okay, I guess.

She's a serious person, so...

Yeah. She wrote
serious books.

BRADLEY: That was
her first book.

Five years ago.

She was working
on her second one.

Mr. Cameron, did your wife have a history
of suicide attempts or depression?

No. It doesn't
make any sense.

I don't even know where she
would have gotten a gun.

This is her new book,
In the Name of God?

There's only
three chapters here.

She was having
a hard time with it.

I'm not finding anything
on the computer.

Is there anywhere else she
might have left a note?

No.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

It's Sofia's mother.

It's okay.

Do what you need to do.

Hello.

Yeah. Hi.

A writer who doesn't
leave a suicide note.

On the other hand, three
chapters in five years?

That would make
me suicidal.

TQLBERG: It was
an ambitious book,

a reflection on religious
warfare in the 21st century.

I rejected several
false starts.

Sofia take it hard?

Nobody likes rejection.

Last month, I told her we were
putting her book on the back burner.

I can't imagine
that's what...

Well, you know.

Like you said,
nobody likes rejection.

Actually, it was
her husband,

Bradley, that had the bigger
problem with our decision.

What did he have to say?

He claimed somebody was out
to sabotage Sofia's book.

Did he say this
somebody have a name?

He kept saying they
this and they that.

I tried to pin him down and he
finally accused Kate Westwood.

(SCOFFS) Kate Westwood
of all people.

Who's Kate Westwood?

The actress, she's in three
independent films this year.

She wrote a children's book our
competitor is publishing next month.

You've got to wonder what she
ever did to Bradley and Sofia.

I would never do
anything bad to Sofia.

She was like
a sister to me.

So why would her husband think
you sabotaged her book?

I don't know. I haven't talked
to her in three months.

That doesn't
sound like sisters.

We had our ups and downs.
We grew up together.

Our first year in the city, we shared
an apartment on Mulberry Street.

Then she met Bradley.

Any idea why they blamed you
when her new book went south?

My career has gone
very well recently.

Bradley and Sofia
were struggling.

Resentment holds
so many people back.

Yeah, must have burned them that
you had your own book coming out.

�Panda Bear
Gets a Haircut."

�To my Lucas.�

You okay,
Ms. Westwood?

Lucas was my son.

I lost him just
three months ago.

We're very sorry.

The fact that you
two stopped talking,

it have anything
to do with your baby?

I told you,
it was resentment.

It's what kept
Bradley and Sofia

from opening their hearts
to their own destinies.

BRADLEY: How would
I know what she means?

Kate talks in
hippie-trippy mumbo-jumbo.

Hey, you mind shutting
that thing down?

What's going on between
the three of you?

Nothing.

We hear nothing and our imagination
just starts running wild.

Pretty actress, a baby,
maybe your baby.

It explains
the hostility.

That's not true.
I loved my wife.

Well, can anyone confirm that you
were here yesterday afternoon?

I was here
trying to work.

Some fire trucks
went by outside,

maybe 10 minutes
after Sofia left.

I saw the people
across the alley arguing.

You can check.
We will.

That still leaves the beef you
two had with Kate Westwood.

I don't know
who I can trust.

I don't know about him, but
you can certainly trust me.

Kate's baby, Sofia
thought they killed him.

They did this
purification,

they used steam
to make the baby sweat,

fed him wheatgrass
to detox him.

Who did this?

Kate's in Systematics.

You know, the cult.

They hand out flyers
in the subway.

Yeah, the self-help program.

BRADLEY: Self-help?

People have lost their
savings, their health.

You're saying
this baby died

during this
purification ritual?

Yes.

Kate told Sofia about it
after it happened.

Sofia said they should
go to the police,

but Kate was too afraid.

0h. my God!

They did it,
didn't they?

They killed Sofia.

Whoa, take it easy.

No, no.

Those people in
Systemotics, they're crazy.

Anything's possible.

Did Sofia write
any of this down?

She made notes,
for an article.

It'll be on her computer.

DR. LANDRY: Kate was
hysterical when she called.

I rushed right over.

The baby was already
in rigor mortis.

He died in his crib
during the night.

You didn't think it was
strange that she called you

and not 911?

No. I delivered
that baby.

You see any signs
of abuse, Dr. Landry?

Heat injuries,
poisoning?

No, of course not. Why?

Ms. Westwood tell you her
baby had been through

a purification ritual?

No.

Detectives, Lucas died of
sudden infant death syndrome.

Just like it says on
his death certificate,

signed by the
Medical Examiner.

LUPO: The M.E. never did
an autopsy on the baby.

Once they get a diagnosis
from the doctor,

it's rubber stamp time.
The kid was cremated.

"The Life System
by Ellison Conway.

"The best-selling guide to
reclaiming your human destiny."

How'd I get through life
without reading this?

Well, I couldn't get through
it without aspirin,

but there's no mention
of detoxing babies.

Well, could the Camerons have
imagined the whole thing?

They'd have a hell
of an imagination.

Sofia's notes.

She alleges that there was a conspiracy
against them by Systemotics.

There's a list there of
sabotaged gallery openings,

of lost friendships,
people following them.

People who write
stuff like this

usually line their hats
with aluminum foil.

And sometimes
commit suicide.

Or sometimes they're right
and nobody believes them.

Hey.

Bradley Cameron's been
leaving messages for you.

Oh, okay. Thanks.

"Call with an update."

Needs to know
what's going on.

He's anxious.
You check his alibi?

Yeah. The fire house
down the street

confirmed that they had trucks go
out on a call at a quarter to 2:00.

And now the neighbors
across the alley

told us that they
did have an argument.

And the people upstairs said
they heard Bradley drilling

right about the time
his wife was being shot.

And the gun?

Untraceable.
BERNARD: Look at this.

The lab found gunshot residue
on Sofia Cameron's right glove.

Looks like the lady
suicided after all.

All this talk
about Systematics

could be Bradley's way
of avoiding the truth.

Could be.

So the fact that she bought
cupcakes right before she suicided,

doesn't bother
you anymore?

Maybe she thought
it would cheer her up.

Always works for me.

The Systemotics has free pre-natal
audits for expectant parents.

Could be worth crashing to see if
there's anything to this detox story.

We still have
a dead baby here.

All right,
whatever you want.

We'll borrow a UC
from Narcotics.

That's like a week's
worth of paperwork.

You got a better idea?

Yeah, but a by-the-book guy
like you wouldn't like it.

Babies are born with
unlimited personal power.

But we live in a world that destroys
personal power with poison.

Poison that we put
in our mouths,

that which we take
into our minds and heart.

Systematics is an antidote
to the toxic society.

That makes a lot of sense,
doesn't it, Jenny?

Yeah,lreaHylike the part
about the food. Yeah.

Oh, Systematics has
so much more to offer.

We can fit you in for
an Eligibility Lab today.

The thing is we're very
focused on the baby aspect.

You tell him, honey.

Well, I took some
anti-anxiety drugs

before I realized
I was expecting.

That's okay.
Our System experts

can design a cleansing
program for you.

And what about
for our baby?

You have a detox
program for newborns?

Where did you hear that?

Uh, we read about it somewhere?
Uh�.Yeah.

Right? You use wheatgrass
and steam baths.

(TYPING)

Hi. I'm Bill.

So, you read something about a
detox program for newborns?

(STAMMERING) Uh,
that's why we came in.

We don't want to take any
chances with our baby's health.

Where did you read
about this program?

Um, I don't remember.
Um...

But you do have
a program, right?

You know what, Cyrus?

Your resistance
troubles me.

I want to thank you
both for coming in,

and good luck
finding your destiny.

Oh, okay.

VAN BUREN: What the hell
were you thinking, Detective?

Taking an administrative
assistant on an undercover,

and without authorization
or back-up?

Okay, it wasn't
the smartest move.

But it's not like we were
dropping in on Bin Laden.

I don't give a damn.

I brought Bernard over here
because he's smart.

I can't imagine
he went along with this.

Oh, no, he wouldn't.

No.

The Chief of D's will
be in touch with you.

BERNARD: Uh-huh. Right.
Okay, thanks.

(SIGHS) Don't look
at me like that.

I'm not the one
that snitched on you.

I guess someone
beat you to it, right?

Okay.

Look, I can't shake the
stench of the rat squad.

My bad to expect you to be any
different than everybody else.

That's the problem
with using amateurs.

They don't know when
to keep their mouth shut.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Yeah, Lupo.

Yeah?

All right,
we're on our way.

The guy hit the awning,
then landed on the sidewalk.

I was looking for an ID and
found your card in his pocket.

Name's Bradley Cameron.

Yeah.We know him.

(EXHALES)

So what happened,
he fell from the hotel?

From the fourth
or fifth floor.

We found a keycard for
a room in his pocket.

He say anything?

Yeah. He said somebody
threw him off the balcony.

Looks like somebody
had a hockey game in here.

Lucky for him he got a
room on the fourth floor.

Check this out.

The download from
Systemotics's website.

Ellison Conway is holding
a meeting this afternoon

for Level A members
right upstairs.

And you need a room key
to access the top floors.

Might be the reason
Bradley got a room here.

Yes, I recognize him. He disrupted
our meeting earlier this afternoon.

How did he do that?

He burst in,
shouting accusations.

Our facilitators
escorted him out.

These are
your facilitators?

Yes.

What do they facilitate?

Safety and good order.

Our Level A members have
actualized their destinies.

What does that mean?

They've reached a level of success
most people only dream of,

and with that comes visibility
and great resentment

from those who
haven't achieved.

Well, seeing as Mr. Cameron ended up
flying off a fourth floor balcony,

we're going to be needing your
facilitators' fingerprints.

And while you're at it, we're also going
to need the video off that camera.

Level A Systematics members are
leaders, they' re healers.

You get to Bradley's
stuff yet?

It's coming up
in a minute.

Think of the people
in your life are sick,

the way you
once were sick.

BRADLEY: Murderer!

You killed my wife, Conway!

You kill babies!

And you,
you're all zombies!

You're all robots!

Murderers!

Mind-control freaks!

Bad news is
those goons' prints

don't match any from
Bradley's hotel room.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Bernard.

Say again?

Okay.

What?

Communications has a 911
call from two witnesses

across the street
from the hotel.

They say they saw
Bradleyjump, all by himself.

FEMALE OPERATOR: Police operator 358.
State your emergency.

MAN: Uh, yeah, I want to report
this guy, he might be a jumper.

I'm right across
from the Penta Hotel,

working on a compressor
on the roof.

We can see this guy
on the fourth floor balcony.

Oh, no! He just went
over the railing!

He jumped!
0h, my God!

l-le'slyir19-

He's probably in
Systemotics, check him out.

We did. He's legit.

Stop. You staged it, Bradley.

Your hotel room, the fight, you even
aimed for the awning to break your fall.

You're trying
to frame Conway.

You weren't doing anything.

I just wanted Conway
to pay for what he did.

He killed my wife.

We're not so sure
she was murdered.

Sofia didn't kill herself.

There was gunshot residue
all over her right glove.

What glove?

BERNARD: The wool ones
that she was wearing.

She wouldn't
wear wool gloves.

She was allergic to wool.

It gave her hives.

Those aren't Sofia's gloves.

LUPO". Yeah, thanks.

Sofia Cameron's medical records say
she had a severe allergy to wool.

So she grabbed the
wrong pair of gloves.

Yeah, or the shooter
put them on her.

Might be away to tell.

The lab took another
look and found GSR

on the inner lining
of the right glove.

Well, is there any way it
could have gotten there

if Sofia was wearing the glove
when she fired the gun?

LUPO: That would be a first.

More likely the shooter
was wearing the glove,

took it off and put it on
Sofia to stage a suicide.

Gunshot residue was transferred
to the inside of the glove.

Well, maybe Bradley isn't
so paranoid after all.

Hold on, look at this.

Look who's one
of Conway's cadets.

Kate Westwood's
baby doctor.

BERNARD: Yeah.

His dead baby story is making
more sense by the minute.

KATE: So I'm in Systematics.

Why should my beliefs
be any of your business?

Sofia accused you and your
beliefs of killing your baby.

That makes it
our business.

My Lucas died
of natural causes.

According to your baby doctor, who
also happens to be in Systemotics.

Now, your son died after a
purification ritual, didn't he?

He died the day after, but I don't
think that's what hurt him.

Didn't you want to get another
opinion besides Dr. Landry's?

Of course!

But Dr. Landry said that a
second opinion would mean

an autopsy on Lucas
and I couldn't bear that.

And Dr. Landry said that no
matter what the truth was,

Systemotics
would get blamed.

She said it would be better if
we just kept everything quiet.

But you told Sofia, right?

I needed a friend.

Instead, she and Bradley got on
their soapbox about Systemotics,

and said that she was
going to expose them.

Did you tell anybody
about her plan?

Who did you tell?

Who did you tell?

You don't understand.

I owe my career to them.

They unblocked me, these
people have connections.

BERNARD: Lady,
we have connections

in some of the finest
prisons in this state.

Do you hear what
I'm telling you?

I told Dr. Landry.

She said it was
very serious.

What did she
do about it?

She discussed the situation
with Ellison Conway.

They wanted me to tell them everything
I knew about Sofia and Bradley.

They said if I lied,
that they'd know.

How would they know?

They've been following them,

running background checks.

They do that.

They have a way
of protecting themselves.

LUPO: Dr. Landry's office
said she's here.

Mrs. Silver has the flu.

Is Dr. Landry
with her baby?

Mrs. Silver's baby,
where is it?

Is someone
running a shower?

Excuse me.

(BABY CRYING)

Mrs. Silver? Police.

Step out of the bathroom!
Step out of the bathroom!

Let's go.

Get out. You have
no right to be here.

Let go of the baby.
Give me the baby. No!

Let go.
Let the baby go.

No. No.

My baby!
Don't take my baby!

Dr. Landry,
you're under arrest.

Arrest? For what?

Let's start with steaming a kid
like a hotdog and work from there.

Let's go.

The doctors found the baby to be in
perfect health with no signs of abuse.

What about
the baby bottles?

Diluted wheatgrass juice, which would
cause nothing more than mild diarrhea.

Send the child
back to its mother.

Not until we know what
happened to the other baby

who was purified.

CONNIE: The M.E. doesn't think it had
anything to do with the baby's death.

The purification rite is more
symbolic than therapeutic.

Fine, send Dr. Landry back
to her medical practice.

We have testimony she and her cronies
were targeting the Camerons.

Tread lightly.

We don't want to be
accused of mounting

a crusade
against a religion.

A religion?

Have you read their literature?
It's pretty out there.

More out there than
eight-armed deities

or a supreme being who
descends from the heavens?

When it comes to faith,

whatever gets you through
the night is fine by me.

And by this office.

I want to see what Systemotics
has on the Camerons.

Have the cops execute
a search warrant.

Lighfly-

PEYSER: There's nothing illegal
about gathering information

about your adversaries.

We don't intimidate
or murder,

no matter what you
read on the Internet.

CONNIE: Duly noted.

We'll call you if we
have any questions.

Hey, Bernard, you
grew up in Compton?

Yeah, how'd
you know that?

They got
a file on you.

They got one
on me, too.

How about me?

Maybe after today.

(INDISTINCT)

They were going through the Camerons'
garbage, grocery list, flyers.

Whoa! Check this out.
"Veteran's Day Shoot-out.

"Bring this coupon in for a 25% off at
the Liberty Shooting Range in Bayonne."

It's addressed
to Bradley.

ELROY: Yeah, he came in
with his wife.

He wanted her to learn to
shoot, which was kind of funny.

I don't get the joke.

She wasn't all that
thrilled to be here.

They had a tiff, she ended up
waiting for him in the car.

He ended up doing
all the shooting.

With this gun?

Could be.

Nine-mil for sure.

Thanks.

We still got his
alibi to deal with.

He's covered for the time it took
to do the crime and get home.

Forty minutes.

The fire trucks.

The guy is an artist.

Avideo artist.

It's like somebody set off
a bomb in the memory.

So what are you saying, this
guy's smarter than you?

(LAUGHS)

There's a lens
in the diving helmet

aimed at the apartment
across the alley.

Can you get a video feed
from this camera?

Right here, this one.

Yeah, I think so.

Pull up anything from
the day of the murder.

Is this what
you're looking for?

(SIRENS WAILING ON VIDEO)

The couple fighting.

He made a video record of what
was going on while he was out.

There's also a pre-recorded
audio playback.

(MACHINE DRILLING)

So the neighbors
would say he was home.

CLERK: "Docket number 84862, People v. Bradley
Cameron, Murder in the Second Degree."

I don't want this lawyer.

This is the third lawyer
we've assigned for you.

How do I know he's
not in Systematics?

Your Honor, at this rate, it's gonna
take six months just to arraign him.

My patience is at
an ebb, Mr. Cameron.

I'm entering a plea
of not guilty

on your behalf
and remanding you.

(GAVEL POUNDS)

He killed his own wife
just to frame Systematics?

A man who can throw himself off a
balcony is capable of anything.

I thought he and his
wife were of one mind.

Didn't they both blame Conway
for ruining their careers?

Apparently Sofia was
having second thoughts.

The lab salvaged another video
that Bradley tried to erase.

This one was made the night
before she was killed.

We've lost all our friends,
our apartment.

We're not doing the work
we're meant to do.

We can't keep blaming everything
bad that happens on Systematics.

Maybe it's us, Bradley.

Maybe I need some
time away from you.

She's threatening
to leave him.

He would've seen
that as betrayal.

And another
personal failure

he could blame
on Systematics.

That would've made it easy for him
to kill her and frame them for it.

Thanks.

It looks like Bradley finally
found a lawyer he could trust.

One who charges
by the motion.

I'll turn on the coffee
machine on the way out.

JUDGE LARAMIE: I haven't seen you
in these parts before, Mr. Pace.

I'm a civil litigator
by trade.

I took this case because the
subject matter interests me.

Murder?

Uh, Mr. Pace means he's
built a cottage industry

suing Ellison Conway
and Systematics.

Awrongful death
during a drug detox,

consumer fraud,
a civil RICO claim.

Somebody forgot
to tell him

Systemotics isn't
on trial here.

Which brings us
to the first branch

of your omnibus motion,
Mr. Pace,

an application
to have me recused.

I'm willing to withdraw it
if Your Honor goes on record

as having never read
anything by Ellison Conway,

visited a Systemotics Center,

or socialized with
one of its members.

I'll do no such thing.

Then the motion stands.

Then the motion is denied.

Mr. Pace is also moving to close
the gallery to spectators.

Systematics routinely sends
its members to observe

legal proceedings where its
interests are at stake.

That's well
within their right.

They're there to intimidate
witnesses, attorneys, even judges.

I've presided
over mob trials.

I don't see
a problem here.

Motion denied.

Thank you, Your Honor. You've already
given me two grounds for appeal.

Glad to be of service,
Mr. Pace.

Jury selection
begins Monday.

How does it feel to be on the
same team as the body-snatchers?

Worry about your
own legal strategy,

nothing but innuendo
and fear-mongering.

Call it whatever
you want, Mr. Cutter,

but by the end
of this trial,

I'll have the jury believing you're
one of Ellison Conway's droids.

JUDGE: We're waiting for
your answer, Ms. Westwood.

KATE: ljoined...

ljoined Systematics
four years ago.

Did there come a time
when you discussed

Bradley and Sofia Cameron
with your fellow members?

JUDGE: Ms. Westwood.

One moment, Your Honor. I'd
like the court to inquire

if that man and woman
in the second row

were sent here
by Systematics.

What next, Your Honor,
a loyalty oath?

Just to placate Mr. Pace.

Sir, do you and your friend
have any affiliation

with the organization
known as Systematics?

Yes, sir, we do.

PACE: Your Honor, they were sent here
for the purpose of intimidation.

I move that they be ejected
from the courtroom.

Mr. Cutter, you have
any objection?

They seem pretty harmless
to me, Your Honor.

I agree. Defense
motion is denied.

YourHonon I move that
you instruct the jury

to ignore
these individuals.

Fine. Thejury
is so instructed.

Please answer the question, Ms.
Westwood.

I can't do this.

I can't be here.

Why not? Are you
afraid of something?

I just can't do this.

I'm sorry.

PACE: There's no point
in forcing her, Your Honor.

All right, the witness
is excused.

We're in recess
until 2:00.

The jury was instructed to pay no
attention to the elephant in the room.

What was I
supposed to do?

If I let him eject
that couple,

I'd be conceding Systematics
is a dangerous organization.

What's so funny?

You're having your head
handed to you by a pro.

We put a gun
in Bradley's hand,

then proved his wife
was ready to leave him.

Perception trumps facts.

You need to get that
witness back on the stand.

She's a defense witness.

Who ran off
the stand in fear.

That hurts you more with the
jury than anything she can say.

When your car is skidding out of
control, steer into the skid.

Thanks for lunch.

If I go back in there, the only
person who gets hurt is me.

Because if you testify
about Systematics,

Ellison Conway
will be angry at you.

Yes.

Do you believe
Bradley killed Sofia?

Yes.

So do I.

By refusing to testify,
you made Systematics

look like a big, scary
cult that killed Sofia.

And what will Conway
think about that?

If I were him, I'd want
you to tell the truth,

and to let the jury see you're
a free and powerful person.

Call Mr. Pace.

Tell him if he doesn't
put you back on the stand,

I will.

KATE: Dr. Landry
wanted my help

collecting information
on Bradley and Sofia.

Did she tell you what Systemotics
would do with this information?

If Bradley and Sofia started spreading
lies about how my baby died,

they said they would use that
information to protect Systemotics.

You've been a member of other
religious groups, haven't you?

Yes. I grew up
Episcopalian.

In college, I did meditation
and practiced Buddhism.

And when I was in LA,
I studied Kabbala.

Did any of these religions ever ask you
to gather information on your friends?

No.

Ms. Westwood,

did you love your
friend Sofia Cameron?

Yes.

She was a good person.
Was really brave.

She was trying to make
the world a better place,

a more loving place.

She was so excited
when I got pregnant.

I really miss her.

Thank you.

No more questions.

Redirect, Your Honor.

PACE: Ms. Westwood,
are you brave?

I hope so.

I've been developing
my personal power.

When you ran out of the courtroom
earlier, was that power or fear?

I can't say.

Fear that your testimony
would be reported back

to Ellison Conway.
Objection.

Sustained.
Enough, Mr. Pace.

The witness is excused.

Then I call my next witness.
Ellison Conway.

Systemotics is a
self-actualization phflosophy

which I created from my studies
in psychology and physiology.

PACE: But your academic background
is engineering, isn't it?

My formal credential, yes.

But I've written books on
philosophy, on spiritual growth,

on health,
on neuroscience.

Your Honor, we renew our
objection to this witness.

I have a right to present an
alternative theory of the crime.

Then get to the point,
Mr. Pace.

Mr. Conway, you compiled a dossier on
Bradley and Sofia Cameron, didn't you?

Not me personally.

Our Data Section did, but
strictly as a defensive measure,

in case we needed to take legal action
against them for slander and libel.

PACE: In anticipation
of a lawsuit,

that was your only reason
to gather information?

Yes.

Mr. Conway, are you familiar with
the term Fracture Mechanics?

It's an engineering term.

No, as it relates
to Systematics.

Fracture Mechanics
is a method of dealing

with those who
would suppress us.

By breaking them.

By dissipating
their energies.

You're twisting
my writings, Mr. Pace,

as you've done
many times before.

Then please tell us the five
stages of Fracture Mechanics.

I will not.

Fracture Mechanics is a core
religious activity of Systemotics

and as such it is protected
by the Constitution.

Mr. Conway, you kept files on the
detectives investigating Sofia's murder.

Were they trying to
suppress you, too?

I don't know,
you'd have to ask them.

What about the thousands of
other people you have files on?

Objection.

What about the jury, do you
have files on them, too?

Your Honor, Mr. Pace's
only purpose here

is to frighten the jury
with innuendo.

Sustained. The testimony of this witness
will be stricken from the record.

The jury is ordered
to disregard it.

Conway should've never been allowed
to testify in the first place.

Now it's impossible
to unring the bell.

That's what
summations are for.

Sure. I just have
to convince the jury

Systemotics is no more dangerous
than the neighborhood glee club.

This day and age,
people are worried,

people are scared
of bogeymen.

You're not going
to score points

pretending those
fears don't exist.

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

Thejudge
wants to see us.

Three jurors sent notes.
They want off the case.

How can you be so sure they
don't have files on us?

They know our names, they have
people in the gallery watching us.

My wife is worried sick.
She wants me to quit.

Have any of you received
specific threats?

Yesterday afternoon, I was
in the park with my kid,

there was this woman, staring
at us, for, like, half an hour.

That could've
been anything.

I'm a make-up artist
in the theater.

A lot of actors
are in Systematics.

If word gets around that I'm
here, I'll lose my livelihood.

We don't think we could
be impartial, YourHonoL

Your Honor, we don't have enough
alternates to replace these jurors.

I know that. Juror number
three, you, sir, are excused.

As for you two, all you're required
to do is keep an open mind

and decide the case
on the evidence.

I'm ordering you
to carry on.

(sum-nus)

Tomorrow, 9:30.

Let's wrap this up while
we still have 12 jurors.

Systematics knew Sofia
was going to raise hell

about the death
of her friend's baby.

They collected
information on her,

they tracked
her movements.

They had motive
and they had opportunity.

And not only that, they had a
religious duty to destroy her.

Fracture Mechanics, a core tenet
of Ellison Conway's theology,

so secret, he won't
even talk about it.

Given all that,

is it really beyond reason that
they could have killed Sofia

and framed my client?

Now if you don't
think it is,

then you have
only one choice,

acquit Bradley Cameron.

Mr. Pace isn't appealing
to your reason.

He's appealing
to your paranoia.

And that's hard to resist,

especially in an age
where fear is big business,

when our privacy is compromised
every time we walk

by one of this city's
10,000 surveillance cameras,

when corporations can
mine our personal data

and criminals can
steal our identities.

Mr. Pace has even
put a name to his bogeyman,

Systematics.

Yes, Systemotics
is secretive.

Yes, Systematics
harasses its enemies.

But its power is
a self-perpetuating myth.

Oh, they'd love you to think that
they can make or break a career,

but the reality is,
they can't.

Bradley Cameron
bought into the myth.

He used Systemotics as a
scapegoat for his own failures.

And his biggest failure
was his crumbling marriage.

His wife was leaving him
and he blamed Systematics.

Killing her and framing
them was his revenge.

Sofia Cameron was brave.

She rejected
her husband's paranoia.

She tried to bring
him back to reality.

Honor her now
by doing the same.

You have any idea
what this is about?

Laramie just said
he needed to see us.

Congratulations, Mr. Pace.

I now have fourjurors
who want off the jury.

They're scared and
refuse to deliberate.

The defense moves
for a mistrial.

YourHonon that would be rewarding Mr.
Pace's bad behavior.

What choice do I have?

You can talk them
out of the tree.

You can order them
to deliberate.

The Appellate Division would bounce a
conviction so fast it'd make your heads spin.

He's right.
I'm declaring a mistrial.

Your Honor,

give me three hours.

You have one.

Thank you.

A plea bargain?

You're delusional.
This is a waste of time.

Come on, Bradley.

Bradley, you have a destiny,

and I'm here to see
that you fulfill it.

Bradley, come on.
We got a mistrial.

You know what I'm talking
about, don't you, Bradley?

Don't listen to him.

You know you can't win.

Well, you heard Mr. Pace,

the judge, the witnesses,
even Ms. Rubirosa.

We've all harnessed our
personal power against you.

You... You're one of them.

Cutter, stop this!

And you know full well,
Bradley, we are relentless.

We will never stop
coming after you.

Oh, God.
Fifteen years, Bradley.

That's the deal.
No way. Bradley.

Well, the alternative
is far worse.

He knows what
we're capable of.

You spent the whole
trial proving it.

Bradley, come on.
We got a mistrial.

Okay.

Bradley, it's a bluff.

They don't bluff!

I'm taking it.

They got to Sofia, they
turned her against me.

At the last minute, I told Sofia
I'd go with her to her mother's.

She stopped
to buy cupcakes.

When she got
back in the car,

I shot her.

We'll draw up the papers.

You'll tell Mr. Conway
I took the deal, won't you?

You convinced me.
It's stupid to resist.

Tell Mr. Conway I'm going
to use my time in jail

to rid myself of the negative
influences in my life,

to get unblocked,

and find my destiny.

The law of
unintended consequences.

Looks like Systemotics
has another convert.

Whatever gets him
through the night.

I'm not sure that
was by the book.

You convinced him
you're in Systematics.

With all I've achieved?

What makes you
so sure I'm not?
