All language subtitles for Law and order S18E15 - Bogeyman

(Male announcer)
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.

[Soft jazz music]

♪ ♪

That guy at the bar...

(Woman)
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.

(Woman)
Bradley's not gonna 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!

I wouldn't let
that happen, baby.

[Police siren blaring]

The car's registered
to a sofia cameron.

Address across town
on stanton.

Ms. Cameron's description
off her license

matches the victim's.

You got a glock 26
on the floor here,

9-mil casing there.

[Sighs]
Looks like
a contact wound.

Lotta women suicide
with a gun?

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

There's no hard
and fast rules.

I always thought
with women

it was either pills
or gas.

Do you see a note?

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?

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.

It 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've gotten a gun.

This is her new book?

In the name of god?

There's only
three chapters here.

She--she was having
a hard time with it.

I'm not finding anything
on the computer.

Is there anywhere else
she might've left a note?

No.

[Cell phone rings]

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.

(Woman)
It was an ambitious book.

A reflection
on religious warfare

in the 21st century.

I rejected several
false starts.

Did 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.

Well, 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
had a name?

He kept saying
"they" this, "they" that.

I tried to pin him down,

and he finally accused
kate westwood.

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's publishing
next month.

You've gotta 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.

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.

And 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, it must have
burned
them

that you had your own book
coming
out.

"Panda bear gets a haircut."

"To my lucas."

You okay, miss westwood?

Lucas was my son.

I lost him
just three months ago.

I'm very sorry.

The fact that you two
stopped talking--

did 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.

How would I know
what she means?
[Drill press rumbling]

Kate talks in
hippy-trippy mumbo jumbo.

Hey, you mind
shutting that thing down?

[Noise stops]

What was going on
between the three of you?

Nothing.

Well, we hear "nothing,"

and our imagination
just starts running wild.

Pretty actress, 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 ten 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 systemotics.

You know, the cult?

The hand out fliers
in the subway.

Yeah, the self-help
program.

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.

Oh, my god.

They did it, didn't they?

They killed sofia.

Whoa, take it easy.
No, no.

Those people in systemotics,
they're crazy.

Well, anything's possible.

Did sofia write
any of this down?

She made notes
for an article.

It'll be on her computer.

(Woman)
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 don't think
it was strange

that she called you
and not 911?

No.
I delivered that baby.

Did you see any signs
of abuse, dr. Landry?

Heat injuries, poisoning?

No.
Of course not.

Why?

Miss westwood tell you
her baby'd 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 did 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,

lost friendships,
people following them.

People who write stuff
like this

usually line their hats
with aluminum foil.

And sometimes
commit suicide.

And sometimes they're right,
and nobody believes them.

Hey.

Bradley cameron's been
leaving messages for you.

Oh, okay.
Thanks.
Mm-hmm.

He wants an update.

Needs to know
what's going on.

He's anxious.

You check his alibi?
Yeah.

The firehouse 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.
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 systemotics

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.

It always works for me.

Systemotics has free
prenatal 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 u-c
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,

and that which we take
into our minds and heart.

Systemotics is an antidote...
To the toxic society.

[Switches video off]

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

Yeah, I really like the part
about the food.

Oh, systemotics has

so much more to offer.

We can fit you in
for an eligibility lab today.

The--the thing is,
we're very focused

on the, uh,
the baby aspect.

Uh, well...

You tell him, honey.

Well, I, um--

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?

Do you have a detox program
for newborns?

Where did you hear that?

Uh, we read about it
somewhere.
Yeah.

You use wheatgrass
and steam baths.
[Typing]

Hi.

I'm bill.

So you read something about
a detox program for newborns?

Uh, that's--
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.
Uh...

But you do have a program,
right?

You know what...Cyrus?

Hmm?

Your resistance
troubles me.

I want to thank you both
for coming in.

And good luck finding
your destiny.

O...kay.

What the hell
were you thinking, detective,

taking an administrative
assistant

on an undercover,

and without authorization
or backup?

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.

Well...no, he wouldn't.

No.

The chief of d's will be
in touch with you.

(Bernard)
Uh-huh.
Right.

Okay. Thanks.
[Hangs up phone]

Don't look at me like that.

I'm not the one
that snitched on you.

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.

Huh.

That's the problem
with using amateurs.

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

[Cell phone rings]

[Chuckles]

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 I.d.
and found your card

in his pocket.

Name's bradley cameron.

(Lupo)
Yeah, we know him.

[Sighs]

So what happened?
He fell from the hotel?

From the fourth
or fifth floor.

We found the key card
for a room in his pocket.

Did he say anything?
Yeah.

He said somebody threw him
off the
balcony.

A hockey game in here.

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

Check this out.

A download from
the systemotics 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 that
bradley got a room here.

Yes, I recognize him.

He disrupted our meeting
earlier this afternoon.

How'd 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 gonna be needing
your facilitators' fingerprints.

And while you're at it,

we're also gonna need
the video off that camera.

Level a systemotics members
are leaders...

They're healers.

You get to bradley's stuff yet?

It's coming up
in a minute.

Maybe 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!

The bad news is
those goons' prints

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

[Cell phone rings]

Bernard.

Say again.

Okay.

What?

Communications has
a 911 call from
two witnesses

across the street
from the
hotel.

They say they saw
bradley jump...

All by himself.

[Recorder clicks on]

[Man's voice on tape]
Police operator 358.

State your emergency.

(Man)
Yeah, I wanna
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!
Oh, my god!

[Recorder off]
He's lying.

He's probably in systemotics.
Check him out.

We did.

He's legit.
Stop.

You staged it, bradley.

The hotel room, the fight.

You even aimed for the awning
to break your fall.

You're trying to frame conway.

We 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.

Gave her hives.

Those aren't sofia's gloves.

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 'em on her.

There might be a way
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?

That would be a first.

More likely the shooter
was wearing the glove,

took it off, 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.

So I'm in systemotics.

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.

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?

[Quietly]
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
sophia and bradley.

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

How would they know?

They'd been following them.

Running background checks.

They do that.

And they have a way
of protecting themselves.

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

Mrs. Sarah has the flu.

Is dr. Landry
with her baby?

Mrs. Silver's baby--

where is it?!

Is someone running
a shower?

Excuse me.

[Shower running,
baby crying]

Ms. Silver, police!
(Woman)
What?

Step out of the bathroom.
Get out.

Step out of the bathroom.
[Baby crying]

Let's go.
Get out of here.

I won't get out.
You have no right to be here.

Give me the baby.
No!

You have no right--

let the baby go!

Give me the baby!
Not my baby!

Don't take my baby!
[Baby crying]

I've got it.
Come on.

Dr. Landry,
you're under arrest.

Arrest? For what?

To start with,
steaming a kid
like a hotdog,

and work from there.

Let's go.

Ealth

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."

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.

Lightly.

(Man)
There's nothing illegal
about gathering information

about your adversaries.

We don't intimidate
or murder,

no matter what you read
on the internet.

(Rubirosa)
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.

Got one on me too.

How about me?

Maybe after tonight.

They were going through
the cameron's garbage.

Grocery lists. Fliers.

Whoa, check this out.
Veteran's day shoot-out.

Bring this coupon in
for 25% off

at the liberty
shooting range

in bayonne.

It's addressed
to bradley.

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.
9-mil for sure.

Thanks.

[Target practice resumes]

We still got his alibi
to deal with.

He's covered
for the time it took

to do the crime
and get home.

40 minutes.

The fire trucks.

Guy's an artist.

A video artist.

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

So what are you sayin'?
This guy's smarter than you?

There's a lens
in the diving helmet.

It's 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.

[Static]

[Sirens]

This is what
you're looking for?

Couple fighting.

He made a video record
of what was going
on

while he was out.

[Drill running]
There is also

a prerecorded
audio playback.

So the neighbors
would say he was home.

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 systemotics?

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 bangs]

(Mccoy)
He killed his own wife

just to frame systemotics?

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?

(Rubirosa)
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.

(Sofia)
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 systemotics.

Maybe it's us.

Bradley.

[Crying]

Maybe I need some time
away from you.

She's threatening
to leave him.

He would've seen that
as betrayal.

And as another
personal failure

he could blame
on systemotics.

That would've made it
easy for him.

Kill her and frame them
for it.

Thanks.

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.

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?

(Cutter)
Uh, mr. Pace means

he's built
a cottage industry

suing ellison conway
and systemotics.

A wrongful death
during a drug detox.

Consumer fraud.
A civil rico claim.

Somebody forgot to tell him
systemotics isn't on trial here.

(Judge laramie)
Which brings us

to the first branch of your
omnibus motion, mr. Pace:

An application
to have me recused?

(Pace)
I'm willing to
withdraw it

if your honor
goes on record

as having never read anything
by ellison conway,

visited
a systemotic 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.

(Pace)
Systemotics 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.

[Gavel bangs]

How does it feel

to be on the same team
as the body snatchers?

Worry about your own
legal strategy.

Nothing but innuendo
and fearmongering.

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.

Stwood.

I joined, uh...

I joined systemotics
four years ago.

Did there come a time

when you discussed bradley
and sofia cameron

with your fellow members?

(Judge laramie)
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 systemotics.

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 systemotics?

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.

Your honor,
I move

that you instruct the jury
to ignore these individuals.

Fine.
The jury is so instructed.

Please answer the question,
ms. Westwood.

I can't do this.

I can't be here.

Why not? Are--are you afraid
of something?

I just can't do this.

I'm sorry.

There's no point
in forcing her, your honor.

All right, the witness
is excused.

We're in recess
until 2:00.

[Gavel bangs]

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
systemotics

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

and proved his wife
was ready to leave him.

Perception trumps facts.

You need to get that witness
back on the stand.

But she's
a defense witness.

Who ran off the stand

in fear.

That hurts you more
with the jury

than anything she could 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 systemotics,

ellison conway
will be angry at you.

Yes.

Do you believe

bradley killed sofia?

Yes.
So do I.

By refusing to testify,

you made systemotics
look like a big scary cult

that killed sofia.

And what'll conway think
about that?

If I were him,

I'd want you to tell
the truth

and 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.

(Westwood)
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 l.a.,
I studied kabbalah.

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

who 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.

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 philosophy

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 systemotics.

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 have 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.

(Judge laramie)
Sustained.

Testimony of this witness

will be stricken
from the record.

The jury is ordered
to dist.

Conway should never have
in the first place.

Now it's impossible
to un-ring 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 at door]

The judge 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 ever received
specific threats?

(Male juror)
Yesterday afternoon,
I was in the park with my kid.

There was this woman
staring at us

for like a half an hour.

That could've been anything.

(Female juror)
I'm a makeup artist
in the theater.

A lot of actors
are in systemotics.

If word gets around
that I'm here,

I'll lose my livelihood.

We don't think we could be
impartial, your honor.

(Cutter)
Your honor, we don't have

enough alternates
to replace these jurors.

(Judge laramie)
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.

Tomorrow, 9:30,
let's wrap this up

while we still have
12 jurors.

Systemotics 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.

Now 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 the 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.

Systemotics.

Yes. Systemotics
is secretive.

Yes, systemotics
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 systemotics.

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.

[Door opens]

Congratulations,
mr. Pace.

I now have four jurors

who want off the jury.

They're scared.
Refuse to deliberate.

The defense moves
for a mistrial.

Your honor,

that would be rewarding
mr. Pace's bad behavior.

What choice do I have?

You talk them out
of the tree.

You can order them
to deliberate.

The appellate division
would bounce a conviction

so fast it would make
your head 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.

15 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--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'llelmrconway
I took the deal, won't you?

You convinced me
it's stupid to resist.

Tell mr. Conway
I'm gonna 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.

Convinced him you were
in
systemotics.

Well, with all
I've achieved,

what makes you so sure
I'm not?
