1
00:00:01,460 --> 00:00:03,500
I'm Dr. Jason Bull.
I'm not a lawyer.
2
00:00:03,500 --> 00:00:07,120
I'm an expert in what's called
trial science.
3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,960
I study the jury's
behavioral patterns.
4
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,420
I know what they're thinking
before they do.
5
00:00:14,540 --> 00:00:16,670
Everything my team learns
6
00:00:16,670 --> 00:00:18,540
gets plugged into a matrix,
7
00:00:18,540 --> 00:00:21,290
which allows us
to assemble a mirror jury
8
00:00:21,290 --> 00:00:24,080
that is scary
in its predictive efficiency.
9
00:00:26,710 --> 00:00:29,580
The verdict you get
depends on me.
10
00:00:29,580 --> 00:00:31,580
And that's no bull.
11
00:00:49,170 --> 00:00:50,620
Are you crazy?
12
00:00:50,620 --> 00:00:53,750
Do you want him to be made fun
of for the rest of his life?
13
00:00:53,750 --> 00:00:54,920
This is your son!
14
00:00:53,750 --> 00:00:54,920
Karen!
15
00:00:56,580 --> 00:00:57,670
Excuse me.
16
00:00:57,670 --> 00:00:58,670
I don't want
to talk about this.
17
00:00:58,670 --> 00:01:00,170
This is the 30th time
18
00:01:00,170 --> 00:01:01,500
we've talked about this.
19
00:01:04,420 --> 00:01:06,000
John... Stop.
20
00:01:04,420 --> 00:01:06,000
I'm defending my son.
21
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,580
Stop what?
22
00:01:07,580 --> 00:01:09,580
Listen to me, this is your son!
23
00:01:12,750 --> 00:01:15,170
Did you see the way
that guy's treating him?
24
00:01:19,750 --> 00:01:21,420
Karen.
25
00:01:21,420 --> 00:01:22,830
Karen!
26
00:01:22,830 --> 00:01:25,250
Oh, God. Karen!
27
00:01:26,420 --> 00:01:27,000
Karen!
28
00:01:32,500 --> 00:01:34,670
Oh, God, my wife!
29
00:01:34,670 --> 00:01:37,830
My wife, she needs help!
30
00:01:37,830 --> 00:01:39,460
My God.
31
00:01:39,460 --> 00:01:41,880
Oh, my God.
Call 911.
32
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,750
Call 911.
33
00:01:43,750 --> 00:01:46,040
Call 911!
34
00:01:48,790 --> 00:01:50,920
...the prosecution has
attempted to throw roadblocks
35
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:51,880
in front of my client
36
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,920
at every turn,
in an outrageous attempt...
37
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,380
Ah, Judge Lamkin.
38
00:01:55,380 --> 00:01:57,790
Can almost make
civil court tolerable.
39
00:01:57,790 --> 00:02:01,210
That's three days in a row
her eyes fluttered at 3:30,
40
00:02:01,210 --> 00:02:03,170
only to perk up again
after her 4:00 p.m. tea.
41
00:02:03,170 --> 00:02:06,000
You don't know
that's tea.
42
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,830
Either way, we need to see our
best witnesses in the morning.
43
00:02:08,830 --> 00:02:10,920
And it's tea.
44
00:02:10,920 --> 00:02:12,880
Lamkin only has
one drink a day,
45
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,960
after dinner,
single-malt scotch.
46
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,620
And you know that
how, exactly?
47
00:02:18,830 --> 00:02:19,880
Never mind.
48
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:20,920
LAMKIN:
The prosecution's witness
49
00:02:20,920 --> 00:02:22,710
had a change in schedule.
50
00:02:22,710 --> 00:02:24,420
We will resume Wednesday.
51
00:02:24,420 --> 00:02:26,670
Your Honor,
the prosecution knew
52
00:02:26,670 --> 00:02:28,540
the officer's patrol shifted.
53
00:02:28,540 --> 00:02:30,170
This means
four more days in jail.
54
00:02:30,170 --> 00:02:32,830
Mr. Foster, you've made
this argument three times,
55
00:02:32,830 --> 00:02:34,170
three different ways now.
56
00:02:34,170 --> 00:02:35,330
Wednesday stands.
57
00:02:35,330 --> 00:02:36,880
It's just a shame
the way they throw
58
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,710
these public defenders
to the wolves.
59
00:02:38,710 --> 00:02:39,880
Uh, Mr. Public Defender...
60
00:02:41,290 --> 00:02:43,380
In this county,
lawyers sit on the right.
61
00:02:43,380 --> 00:02:44,380
LAMKIN:
Watch it, Bull.
62
00:02:45,380 --> 00:02:46,330
Sorry, Your Honor.
63
00:02:54,380 --> 00:02:56,330
Dr. Bull.
64
00:02:56,330 --> 00:02:59,170
Oh, I'm gonna go
get the car.
65
00:02:59,170 --> 00:03:00,750
Judge Lamkin,
always a pleasure.
66
00:03:00,750 --> 00:03:04,750
And that is a new robe--
rag & bone?
67
00:03:04,750 --> 00:03:07,290
How would you like
to do me a favor?
68
00:03:07,290 --> 00:03:09,620
A case in
Judge Bergen's court.
69
00:03:09,620 --> 00:03:11,750
I was hoping it would be
a little more interesting,
70
00:03:11,750 --> 00:03:12,920
but go on.
71
00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:15,420
Some poor guy was
in a car accident,
72
00:03:15,420 --> 00:03:16,880
and his wife was killed.
73
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,120
The DA's going after him
for vehicular manslaughter.
74
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:20,920
And you'd
throw out the case.
75
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:20,920
I would.
76
00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:22,040
Bergen's not so forgiving.
77
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:23,710
I thought you
and your team could
78
00:03:23,710 --> 00:03:26,210
jump on board, at least
make it a fair fight.
79
00:03:26,210 --> 00:03:28,420
Well, Judge, you know
my plate is very full.
80
00:03:28,420 --> 00:03:30,420
I have a trial
coming up in your court.
81
00:03:30,420 --> 00:03:32,290
I could always
postpone it.
82
00:03:32,290 --> 00:03:33,710
And suddenly
my plate is empty.
83
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:36,670
Do we have a lawyer?
84
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:36,670
Can't afford one.
85
00:03:36,670 --> 00:03:39,460
So it's whoever draws
the long straw at Legal Aid.
86
00:03:40,710 --> 00:03:42,120
What about that guy?
87
00:03:44,290 --> 00:03:45,460
I think he was
sworn in at the bar
88
00:03:45,460 --> 00:03:46,620
on his way
to court this morning.
89
00:03:46,620 --> 00:03:49,170
Hmm. Perfect.
90
00:03:49,170 --> 00:03:50,830
I love a fresh lump
of clay.
91
00:03:50,830 --> 00:03:52,500
And what, you're
Michelangelo?
92
00:03:52,500 --> 00:03:55,330
Michelangelo's David
93
00:03:55,330 --> 00:03:57,620
was chiseled from
a very large,
94
00:03:57,620 --> 00:03:59,460
imperfect block
of marble
95
00:03:59,460 --> 00:04:01,330
other artisans
wouldn't touch.
96
00:04:01,330 --> 00:04:03,620
I look forward
to your masterpiece.
97
00:04:03,620 --> 00:04:05,210
Hmm.
98
00:04:09,750 --> 00:04:11,960
John and Karen Phillips.
99
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:16,460
Married ten years;
one son, Carter.
100
00:04:16,460 --> 00:04:18,880
Luckily, Carter was not in the
car at the time of the crash.
101
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,960
God. How fast was he going?
102
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,500
11 miles an hour
over the speed limit.
103
00:04:22,500 --> 00:04:23,960
That doesn't
sound reckless.
104
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:24,960
Well, I never speed.
105
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,290
It's called
taking the subway.
106
00:04:27,290 --> 00:04:28,830
The police report says
there was a sign
107
00:04:28,830 --> 00:04:31,330
warning cars to slow down,
and he'd had a drink
108
00:04:31,330 --> 00:04:32,750
at a barbecue beforehand.
109
00:04:32,750 --> 00:04:33,790
Blood alcohol?
110
00:04:33,790 --> 00:04:36,670
.04-- one beer.
111
00:04:36,670 --> 00:04:37,880
Below the legal limit.
112
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,880
To prosecute
for vehicular manslaughter,
113
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,000
they'd have to prove
that John purposely drove
114
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,000
in an agitated state.
115
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,460
I don't get it.
116
00:04:45,460 --> 00:04:47,000
What's their case?
117
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,790
BULL:
Exactly.
How often
118
00:04:48,790 --> 00:04:50,290
does the DA push
for manslaughter
119
00:04:50,290 --> 00:04:51,540
on a traffic accident?
120
00:04:51,540 --> 00:04:53,540
Less than five percent
of the time.
121
00:04:53,540 --> 00:04:55,290
This is the question.
122
00:04:55,290 --> 00:04:58,000
What is motivating the DA
to prosecute?
123
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,880
I'm on it.
124
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:01,540
I'm tempted to hack
125
00:05:01,540 --> 00:05:03,880
into the DA's private server
and then-- just give me an hour
126
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,830
and an iced quad espresso
127
00:05:05,830 --> 00:05:07,960
and I'll have
something, okay?
128
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,880
I never know whether to
be scared or impressed.
129
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,750
First instinct's
usually the best.
130
00:05:12,750 --> 00:05:17,580
Baseball dad, devoted husband.
131
00:05:17,580 --> 00:05:20,120
Worked double shifts
as an HVAC installer,
132
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,120
just to take his family
to Coney Island once a year.
133
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,330
And then tragedy took
all that away.
134
00:05:26,330 --> 00:05:27,620
John and Karen
135
00:05:27,620 --> 00:05:30,750
were driving home from a team
barbecue one day, and...
136
00:05:30,750 --> 00:05:35,920
But thank God their son Carter
had stayed behind with friends.
137
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,120
They rounded a bend...
138
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,080
Must be hard
to hear.
139
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:40,710
Well, it was harder
losing Karen.
140
00:05:40,710 --> 00:05:43,170
I don't understand what this is.
141
00:05:43,170 --> 00:05:44,750
This is all part
of trial science.
142
00:05:44,750 --> 00:05:46,710
We test out your case.
143
00:05:46,710 --> 00:05:49,250
Find the right strategy,
narrative.
144
00:05:49,250 --> 00:05:50,620
My attorney isn't even here.
145
00:05:50,620 --> 00:05:51,750
Legal Aid lawyers
often have
146
00:05:51,750 --> 00:05:54,170
30 to 40 active cases.
147
00:05:54,170 --> 00:05:56,000
He doesn't need to be here.
148
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,880
This is so surreal.
149
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,670
I lost my wife
in a car accident
150
00:06:00,670 --> 00:06:02,500
and they think I'm a killer?
151
00:06:02,500 --> 00:06:04,040
Karen was everything to me.
152
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:05,750
If I go to jail,
153
00:06:05,750 --> 00:06:07,540
my son ends up in foster care.
154
00:06:05,750 --> 00:06:07,540
Hey.
155
00:06:07,540 --> 00:06:10,080
We're not gonna let that happen.
156
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:11,540
This is a process.
157
00:06:11,540 --> 00:06:12,750
And it works.
158
00:06:12,750 --> 00:06:14,170
Come on.
159
00:06:16,420 --> 00:06:19,170
Pretty sophisticated equipment.
160
00:06:19,170 --> 00:06:20,920
Not cheap, either.
161
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,620
Why are you doing this for me?
162
00:06:22,620 --> 00:06:23,920
Well, it isn't charity.
163
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:25,790
You're getting me on
the good side of a judge
164
00:06:25,790 --> 00:06:28,380
who's presiding over a very
lucrative suit next month.
165
00:06:28,380 --> 00:06:30,710
And I'm not giving
you any of my share.
166
00:06:30,710 --> 00:06:32,460
More importantly,
we don't believe
167
00:06:32,460 --> 00:06:34,830
in letting people go to jail
for an accident.
168
00:06:34,830 --> 00:06:36,420
Everyone has
their reasons.
169
00:06:36,420 --> 00:06:37,880
Dad?
170
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:39,120
Hey.
171
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,380
Hey, buddy.
172
00:06:41,380 --> 00:06:43,580
Listen, I'm a little
short on cash.
173
00:06:43,580 --> 00:06:44,790
Can I settle up
with you next week?
174
00:06:44,790 --> 00:06:46,330
No problem.
I'll see you Monday.
175
00:06:46,330 --> 00:06:48,580
Bye, Carter.
176
00:06:46,330 --> 00:06:48,580
How was school?
177
00:06:48,580 --> 00:06:50,750
Okay.
178
00:06:48,580 --> 00:06:50,750
So...
179
00:06:51,710 --> 00:06:52,880
Brought your lawyer, huh?
180
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,210
I'm not a lawyer.
181
00:06:54,210 --> 00:06:55,670
Yeah, that's right.
182
00:06:55,670 --> 00:06:56,750
You're probably too
smart to be a lawyer.
183
00:06:56,750 --> 00:06:58,790
Hey. Don't bias
a nine-year-old.
184
00:06:58,790 --> 00:06:59,790
I'm still eight.
185
00:06:59,790 --> 00:07:02,170
In five months and six days,
I'll be nine.
186
00:07:02,170 --> 00:07:04,670
All right.
See you soon, Dr. Bull.
187
00:07:04,670 --> 00:07:05,830
Carter, it's
time to go.
188
00:07:05,830 --> 00:07:07,500
We have to get
to your class.
189
00:07:08,500 --> 00:07:09,960
Nice to meet you, Carter.
190
00:07:14,710 --> 00:07:16,880
Cable. You said
you found something?
191
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,330
I found a troll.
192
00:07:18,330 --> 00:07:21,460
You and I have very different
definitions of "something."
193
00:07:21,460 --> 00:07:23,670
This guy is on the Internet
defending John,
194
00:07:23,670 --> 00:07:25,670
saying there's more
to this story.
195
00:07:25,670 --> 00:07:26,790
How would he know?
196
00:07:26,790 --> 00:07:28,540
Well, that's why I started
chatting with him.
197
00:07:28,540 --> 00:07:30,670
He's pointing a finger at
this guy named Trevor Dormit.
198
00:07:30,670 --> 00:07:32,210
The state assemblyman.
199
00:07:32,210 --> 00:07:33,670
I asked him what Dormit
had to do with the crash
200
00:07:33,670 --> 00:07:35,580
and he's being pretty evasive.
201
00:07:35,580 --> 00:07:36,790
Is Dormit on
the witness list?
202
00:07:36,790 --> 00:07:38,460
No.
203
00:07:36,790 --> 00:07:38,460
Hmm.
204
00:07:38,460 --> 00:07:39,790
All right.
205
00:07:39,790 --> 00:07:41,210
Maybe he should be.
206
00:07:41,210 --> 00:07:42,580
Print out everything
you have on him.
207
00:07:42,580 --> 00:07:43,710
Like on paper?
208
00:07:43,710 --> 00:07:45,210
No. Banana leaves.
209
00:07:45,210 --> 00:07:46,380
Yes, on paper.
210
00:07:46,380 --> 00:07:47,790
Doing this old school.
211
00:07:47,790 --> 00:07:49,790
Gonna need the visual.
212
00:07:49,790 --> 00:07:51,670
Line drive to left,
213
00:07:51,670 --> 00:07:53,830
and that's a drive and a run.
214
00:07:51,670 --> 00:07:53,830
Come on.
215
00:07:53,830 --> 00:07:55,670
Yeah!
216
00:07:55,670 --> 00:07:57,330
Assemblyman Dormit.
217
00:07:57,330 --> 00:07:59,580
I'm Dr. Jason Bull.
I'm sorry,
218
00:07:59,580 --> 00:08:01,500
there was nobody
outside there.
219
00:08:01,500 --> 00:08:03,830
Marcy will be back in a minute;
she'll be able to help you.
220
00:08:03,830 --> 00:08:05,000
This will just take a moment.
221
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,710
Um, a friend of mine is on trial
for manslaughter.
222
00:08:07,710 --> 00:08:08,920
Uh...
223
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:10,040
This office could look
into that,
224
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,710
but really that is an issue
for the DA.
225
00:08:12,710 --> 00:08:13,880
No. I know; that's
why I'm here.
226
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:15,380
Because I read all
these online posts,
227
00:08:15,380 --> 00:08:18,000
and it seems you're involved in
the case against John Phillips?
228
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,120
I don't know who that is.
229
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:20,580
Well, that's the
guy who was in
230
00:08:20,580 --> 00:08:22,710
this tragic accident
and he lost his wife.
231
00:08:22,710 --> 00:08:24,790
Oh. The maniac drunk driver.
232
00:08:24,790 --> 00:08:26,750
And you were there.
233
00:08:24,790 --> 00:08:26,750
Yeah.
234
00:08:28,790 --> 00:08:30,920
Just a few cars back.
235
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,380
Thank God I wasn't any closer,
236
00:08:33,380 --> 00:08:34,710
or I might not
be here today.
237
00:08:34,710 --> 00:08:38,250
Well, I don't know if you
realize John was driving home
238
00:08:38,250 --> 00:08:41,750
from his eight-year-old son's
baseball game.
239
00:08:41,750 --> 00:08:43,880
A lot of criminals are fathers,
sadly.
240
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:44,960
Well, he's...
241
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,330
not a drunk driver.
242
00:08:46,330 --> 00:08:48,420
Not a maniac, certainly;
not a criminal at all.
243
00:08:48,420 --> 00:08:50,210
He's just
a single father now.
244
00:08:50,210 --> 00:08:52,170
He's lost his wife.
245
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,210
Oh.
246
00:08:54,210 --> 00:08:56,540
You can leave your
information with Marcy.
247
00:08:56,540 --> 00:08:57,580
Assemblyman Dormit's office.
248
00:08:57,580 --> 00:08:58,620
Okay. Sorry.
249
00:08:58,620 --> 00:09:00,170
Yeah.
250
00:08:58,620 --> 00:09:00,170
One-- one last question.
251
00:09:00,170 --> 00:09:02,580
Are you the chief sponsor
252
00:09:02,580 --> 00:09:05,750
of the road improvement
bill for Nassau County?
253
00:09:05,750 --> 00:09:07,830
Because it seems that you
stand to benefit greatly
254
00:09:07,830 --> 00:09:11,120
from characterizing John's
accident as a criminal act.
255
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,540
In fact, it seems you're
the reason John's on trial
in the first place.
256
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:17,170
Marcy.
257
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:17,170
Yes, sir?
258
00:09:17,170 --> 00:09:18,580
Call security, please.
259
00:09:18,580 --> 00:09:20,880
This man's refused
repeated instructions
260
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:21,960
to leave the office.
261
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,960
He might be armed.
262
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:25,670
Right away, sir.
263
00:09:25,670 --> 00:09:27,500
That won't be necessary.
264
00:09:27,500 --> 00:09:29,830
You know, before
you came in here,
265
00:09:29,830 --> 00:09:31,960
I was on the fence
about taking the time
266
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,420
to testify against Phillips,
267
00:09:33,420 --> 00:09:37,210
but now, I guess,
I'll see you in court.
268
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,920
I'm looking forward to that.
269
00:09:55,330 --> 00:09:57,830
Hey there, Marissa,
I'm putting you on speaker.
270
00:09:57,830 --> 00:10:00,080
How'd you get Dormit to testify?
271
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,540
Classic high-conflict behavior.
272
00:10:02,540 --> 00:10:05,830
Instead of resolving problems,
he likes to escalate them.
273
00:10:05,830 --> 00:10:07,210
Well done!
274
00:10:07,210 --> 00:10:08,830
You can put him on the stand
just like you wanted.
275
00:10:08,830 --> 00:10:11,420
Now that you got your wish,
what's next?
276
00:10:11,420 --> 00:10:13,420
Police. Pull over.
277
00:10:13,420 --> 00:10:15,460
I'll let you
know when I get back.
278
00:10:15,460 --> 00:10:16,420
First I have to pay for my wish.
279
00:10:16,420 --> 00:10:17,540
What do you mean?
280
00:10:17,540 --> 00:10:20,000
Police! Pull over now.
281
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,960
Dormit must have told
local law enforcement
282
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,750
I was driving through.
283
00:10:23,750 --> 00:10:25,880
Bye.
284
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,540
License and registration.
285
00:10:29,540 --> 00:10:32,040
Sure thing, Officer.
286
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,580
Do you mind if I ask
what I did wrong?
287
00:10:35,580 --> 00:10:37,500
I don't know if you're
aware of New York laws, sir,
288
00:10:37,500 --> 00:10:39,290
but it's a hands-free state.
289
00:10:39,290 --> 00:10:41,250
In the car.
I assume it's safe
290
00:10:41,250 --> 00:10:42,460
to use our hands
other places.
291
00:10:43,790 --> 00:10:46,040
Please step out
of the car.
292
00:10:48,830 --> 00:10:50,710
Can I use my hands?
293
00:10:50,710 --> 00:10:52,080
You're a funny guy, huh?
294
00:10:54,290 --> 00:10:56,380
Hi.
295
00:10:56,380 --> 00:10:58,580
Oh, good.
296
00:10:58,580 --> 00:11:00,920
We're pooling our
resources to pay your fine.
297
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,040
FYI, Marissa wouldn't
give up her watch.
298
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,330
I take it the assemblyman
299
00:11:04,330 --> 00:11:05,920
had something to do
with your citation.
300
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,920
A small price to pay
for the pleasure
301
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:09,710
of his company in court.
302
00:11:09,710 --> 00:11:12,210
So, the prosecution's plan
303
00:11:12,210 --> 00:11:15,460
is to get the jury's attention
focused on the small details.
304
00:11:15,460 --> 00:11:17,460
Yep. Beer,
the speeding.
305
00:11:17,460 --> 00:11:19,420
Looking angry as
he passed Dormit.
306
00:11:19,420 --> 00:11:22,460
But now we put those details
into a larger context.
307
00:11:22,460 --> 00:11:23,670
With Dormit on the stand?
308
00:11:23,670 --> 00:11:25,920
And with a jury full of people
309
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,000
who don't get hung up
on the details.
310
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:29,460
Like Benny.
311
00:11:29,460 --> 00:11:30,750
Thanks?
312
00:11:29,460 --> 00:11:30,750
No judgment.
313
00:11:30,750 --> 00:11:32,620
That's just how the
Benny brain works.
314
00:11:32,620 --> 00:11:34,500
What brand of shoes was
Marissa wearing yesterday?
315
00:11:34,500 --> 00:11:35,710
What color was her jacket?
316
00:11:35,710 --> 00:11:36,710
I don't remember.
317
00:11:36,710 --> 00:11:38,620
But she looked great.
318
00:11:36,710 --> 00:11:38,620
Thank you.
319
00:11:38,620 --> 00:11:40,040
Manolos.
320
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:41,460
And a winter white jacket
over an emerald crew neck.
321
00:11:41,460 --> 00:11:42,710
Very elegant.
322
00:11:42,710 --> 00:11:43,920
Okay.
That's probably enough
323
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,290
about my fashion choices.
324
00:11:45,290 --> 00:11:46,620
I take it we wouldn't want
325
00:11:46,620 --> 00:11:48,080
a detective on our jury.
326
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:49,500
No. On this one
327
00:11:49,500 --> 00:11:52,380
we need people who only
think of the big picture.
328
00:11:52,380 --> 00:11:53,250
Intuitive thinkers.
329
00:11:53,250 --> 00:11:56,000
Jury selection is never perfect.
330
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,500
That's why we
have a head start.
331
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:00,120
This is tomorrow's jury pool.
332
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:01,460
How did you get--
I mean,
333
00:12:01,460 --> 00:12:03,670
nobody gets this in advance.
334
00:12:03,670 --> 00:12:05,330
We do.
335
00:12:05,330 --> 00:12:06,500
Better not to ask.
336
00:12:06,500 --> 00:12:08,040
Cable's running through
their social media.
337
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,040
Court records-- anything that
tells us who these people are.
338
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,380
And who to avoid.
339
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,380
But in voir dire,
340
00:12:13,380 --> 00:12:16,040
you can't just ask people
if they get hung up on details.
341
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,920
You're gonna ask
these questions.
342
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,540
Do you prefer
343
00:12:20,540 --> 00:12:21,710
cooking or baking?
344
00:12:21,710 --> 00:12:24,380
Mr. Foster, please.
I'm hungry.
345
00:12:24,380 --> 00:12:26,710
Don't try my patience
before lunch.
346
00:12:26,710 --> 00:12:29,040
Judge Bergen's probably gonna
give you a little bit of flack.
347
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:30,380
Don't worry.
348
00:12:30,380 --> 00:12:31,960
You can ask anything you want
in court.
349
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,580
Cooking or baking?
350
00:12:34,580 --> 00:12:36,000
Bakers are precise.
351
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,210
They have to follow the recipe
exactly; details matter.
352
00:12:38,210 --> 00:12:40,620
Cooking.
353
00:12:40,620 --> 00:12:41,830
It's more about the
feel of the dish.
354
00:12:41,830 --> 00:12:43,290
I sort of wing it, though,
355
00:12:43,290 --> 00:12:44,830
'cause I never have
the right stuff in my fridge.
356
00:12:44,830 --> 00:12:46,380
So people who cook
357
00:12:46,380 --> 00:12:48,290
will be more open
to John's story.
358
00:12:48,290 --> 00:12:50,000
Cooking or baking?
359
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,580
Uh, baking.
360
00:12:51,580 --> 00:12:53,250
But not all that vegan
361
00:12:53,250 --> 00:12:55,750
gluten-free, taste-free crap.
362
00:12:56,670 --> 00:12:58,620
We move to strike this juror.
363
00:13:00,670 --> 00:13:02,540
Don't smile.
364
00:13:02,540 --> 00:13:04,500
You can't smile.
365
00:13:04,500 --> 00:13:05,620
You didn't just win
the lottery.
366
00:13:05,620 --> 00:13:07,000
You struck a juror.
367
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,290
You give anything away,
368
00:13:08,290 --> 00:13:10,210
the prosecution will catch on.
369
00:13:10,210 --> 00:13:11,920
So just show me.
370
00:13:10,210 --> 00:13:11,920
Oh.
371
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,170
Yeah, but don't
look nervous.
372
00:13:13,170 --> 00:13:15,750
Show me your
neutral face.
373
00:13:15,750 --> 00:13:17,540
That's more sad clown.
374
00:13:17,540 --> 00:13:19,830
We'll work on this.
Don't think about it.
375
00:13:19,830 --> 00:13:21,710
Oh, boy.
376
00:13:21,710 --> 00:13:22,710
Cooking.
377
00:13:22,710 --> 00:13:24,380
No patience for baking.
378
00:13:24,380 --> 00:13:26,330
Acceptable to the defense.
379
00:13:26,330 --> 00:13:28,040
Mr. Mercado?
380
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,710
Acceptable,
Your Honor.
381
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,790
It looks like we have a jury.
382
00:13:33,790 --> 00:13:36,750
Participating in a criminal case
as a juror is an important duty.
383
00:13:36,750 --> 00:13:38,710
We will attempt to keep
any inconvenience to you
384
00:13:38,710 --> 00:13:40,500
at a minimum.
I would like to remind you
385
00:13:40,500 --> 00:13:43,080
as a juror there are some
guidelines you need to follow.
386
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:44,790
I spend my weekends
bird watching.
387
00:13:44,790 --> 00:13:46,210
I spend my weekends
bird watching.
388
00:13:46,210 --> 00:13:47,620
I'm married
with four kids.
389
00:13:47,620 --> 00:13:49,000
I'm married
with four kids.
390
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,500
I am an account executive.
391
00:13:50,500 --> 00:13:52,210
Still single.
392
00:13:52,210 --> 00:13:54,620
We have identified
the 12 mirror jurors.
393
00:13:54,620 --> 00:13:55,880
How'd we fare?
394
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:57,000
Mostly good.
395
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,170
However... Sorry.
396
00:13:58,170 --> 00:14:00,040
...the mirror jury
has led me to believe
397
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,880
that this juror
could be an issue.
398
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,830
Arthur Jolene.
399
00:14:03,830 --> 00:14:05,380
His pulsed spiked when he
saw that John was speeding.
400
00:14:05,380 --> 00:14:06,790
He pays all his bills on time.
401
00:14:06,790 --> 00:14:07,830
And...
402
00:14:07,830 --> 00:14:09,830
He's a birdwatcher.
Oy.
403
00:14:09,830 --> 00:14:12,750
He's kept a hand-written log
for the last 19 years.
404
00:14:12,750 --> 00:14:16,330
He can spot all 476 species
in New York.
405
00:14:16,330 --> 00:14:17,620
And he's still single?
406
00:14:17,620 --> 00:14:19,830
Can you believe it?
407
00:14:17,620 --> 00:14:19,830
Speaking of
408
00:14:19,830 --> 00:14:21,000
that winter white
jacket and Manolos...
409
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,080
Oh, not again.
410
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,080
Wait a minute.
411
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:23,170
I want in on this.
412
00:14:23,170 --> 00:14:25,170
She's worn a new outfit
twice this week.
413
00:14:25,170 --> 00:14:28,210
And she left the office
at 7:30 last night,
414
00:14:28,210 --> 00:14:31,290
which never happens,
so what's going on?
415
00:14:31,290 --> 00:14:34,420
I am pretty sure this is why the
phrase "none of your business"
416
00:14:34,420 --> 00:14:35,710
was originally invent...
417
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,670
Sorry.
Don't know my own strength.
418
00:14:38,670 --> 00:14:40,380
That was at least 16 feet.
419
00:14:40,380 --> 00:14:41,920
Yes, it was.
420
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,750
All right, big guy.
You're at bat.
421
00:14:43,750 --> 00:14:44,830
Show me what ya got.
422
00:14:44,830 --> 00:14:48,750
Now, I hear that you're
a Mets fan.
423
00:14:48,750 --> 00:14:50,040
I'm not gonna hold that against
you. Who's your favorite player?
424
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,500
Cespedes.
425
00:14:51,500 --> 00:14:55,750
He's averaging almost .300,
but July 5 he hit .305,
426
00:14:55,750 --> 00:14:59,460
and April 29, starting up
against the Giants, he hit .313.
427
00:14:59,460 --> 00:15:02,330
Wow. Nice stats.
428
00:15:02,330 --> 00:15:04,670
Show me your stance.
429
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,000
You all right there,
kiddo?
430
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,830
Getting ready
takes a sec.
431
00:15:14,830 --> 00:15:16,790
Warm up for you.
432
00:15:19,620 --> 00:15:21,540
Ah, man,
missed it.
433
00:15:21,540 --> 00:15:23,460
That was a good cut.
Bad pitch.
434
00:15:23,460 --> 00:15:26,460
So you got some Major League
scouts looking at you?
435
00:15:26,460 --> 00:15:28,080
Nah, I'm not on the team
anymore.
436
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,040
Oh.
437
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,750
All right.
Let's take another cut.
438
00:15:35,750 --> 00:15:37,500
Eyes on the ball
this time.
439
00:15:38,460 --> 00:15:40,290
Whoa!
440
00:15:40,290 --> 00:15:42,710
Talked to all the parents
from the game?
441
00:15:42,710 --> 00:15:44,540
Uh, minus two who
are more evasive.
442
00:15:44,540 --> 00:15:45,920
But we have
character witnesses.
443
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,330
John checks out like
father of the year.
444
00:15:47,330 --> 00:15:49,880
Anyone mention why John
took Carter off the team?
445
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,920
One dad thinks
it has to do
446
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,380
with the accident,
the trial.
447
00:15:53,380 --> 00:15:54,710
Talk to everyone.
448
00:15:54,710 --> 00:15:56,500
Find out what kind
of player Carter was.
449
00:15:56,500 --> 00:15:58,250
Lurla Gray?
450
00:16:02,460 --> 00:16:04,210
Maybe.
451
00:16:04,210 --> 00:16:06,120
Are you the one who called
about John Phillips?
452
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,380
Your sons played baseball
together.
453
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:10,790
Ma'am?
454
00:16:10,790 --> 00:16:12,540
I worked for the FBI.
455
00:16:12,540 --> 00:16:16,210
This gnome you have guarding
your door isn't gonna deter me.
456
00:16:18,290 --> 00:16:19,830
I told them I was done talking.
457
00:16:19,830 --> 00:16:21,170
I don't want to be involved.
458
00:16:21,170 --> 00:16:23,250
Told who?
459
00:16:21,170 --> 00:16:23,250
The DA.
460
00:16:23,250 --> 00:16:25,880
He promised to protect me
if I handed over the video.
461
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,000
Ma'am, what video?
462
00:16:40,790 --> 00:16:43,290
...I want to win games
out there.
463
00:16:43,290 --> 00:16:44,710
Listen, maybe you find
a different sport for your son.
464
00:16:44,710 --> 00:16:47,830
Okay.
That's not good, John.
465
00:16:47,830 --> 00:16:50,290
Attacking a coach
supports the prosecution's case
466
00:16:50,290 --> 00:16:52,540
that he drove
in an agitated state.
467
00:16:52,540 --> 00:16:55,080
And then you got in the car?
468
00:16:56,500 --> 00:17:00,170
This is a detail the jury may
have a hard time ignoring.
469
00:17:11,460 --> 00:17:13,290
Look, I know it looks bad,
470
00:17:13,290 --> 00:17:16,460
but there's a perfectly good...
471
00:17:16,460 --> 00:17:18,000
I don't know, maybe
it's not very good, but...
472
00:17:20,210 --> 00:17:22,000
That guy there, Gary,
he's one of the dads
473
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,670
that coaches Carter's team.
474
00:17:23,670 --> 00:17:27,500
And he benches Carter every game
until the last inning,
475
00:17:27,500 --> 00:17:28,750
when it doesn't even matter.
476
00:17:28,750 --> 00:17:29,960
Is it a
competitive league?
477
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:31,380
These kids are
eight years old.
478
00:17:31,380 --> 00:17:33,290
But he's acting like they're
going to the World Series.
479
00:17:33,290 --> 00:17:35,830
He, he has the same
three kids
480
00:17:35,830 --> 00:17:36,960
riding the pine every game.
481
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,170
Not his kid, I bet.
482
00:17:38,170 --> 00:17:39,290
So you shoved him.
483
00:17:39,290 --> 00:17:40,670
I only went
to go talk to him.
484
00:17:40,670 --> 00:17:43,380
In private so it wasn't a thing
in front of the other parents,
485
00:17:43,380 --> 00:17:44,880
but then he starts acting
like it was my fault.
486
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,250
Carter's fault.
487
00:17:46,250 --> 00:17:47,540
And then he says,
"Oh, maybe your kid
488
00:17:47,540 --> 00:17:50,040
should find another sport."
And, uh...
489
00:17:51,580 --> 00:17:53,500
I just snapped.
490
00:17:51,580 --> 00:17:53,500
John.
491
00:17:53,500 --> 00:17:55,380
These are the kinds of things
we need to know.
492
00:17:55,380 --> 00:17:57,500
The prosecution
has the video.
493
00:17:57,500 --> 00:17:59,580
And Mercado's gonna
lead with it at trial.
494
00:17:59,580 --> 00:18:01,380
It'll make the case that you
were in an agitated state
495
00:18:01,380 --> 00:18:03,080
before you got
behind the wheel.
496
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,380
This gives the prosecution
grounds for manslaughter.
497
00:18:06,380 --> 00:18:08,580
We'll be ready.
498
00:18:08,580 --> 00:18:10,420
For whatever
they throw at us.
499
00:18:11,580 --> 00:18:13,670
In the car crash
that killed...
500
00:18:13,670 --> 00:18:15,460
No, nope, nope,
nope, sorry.
501
00:18:15,460 --> 00:18:17,670
I kno-- I know you said
you were gonna jump in,
502
00:18:17,670 --> 00:18:19,790
I just assumed I'd get
a whole sentence in first.
503
00:18:19,790 --> 00:18:21,540
Don't use the
word "crash."
504
00:18:21,540 --> 00:18:23,460
It's "accident,"
"tragedy," "loss."
505
00:18:23,460 --> 00:18:24,790
Those are the
magic words.
506
00:18:24,790 --> 00:18:26,120
Especially around
Arthur Jolene.
507
00:18:26,120 --> 00:18:27,420
Who?
508
00:18:27,420 --> 00:18:28,670
Juror Number Two.
509
00:18:28,670 --> 00:18:30,500
And the other two who
will cluster around him.
510
00:18:30,500 --> 00:18:32,000
Cluster?
511
00:18:30,500 --> 00:18:32,000
Jurors Number
Eight and Nine
512
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,920
will follow the
strongest personality
513
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:35,750
with whom they
share similar traits.
514
00:18:35,750 --> 00:18:36,830
That's Arthur.
515
00:18:39,670 --> 00:18:42,290
This tragic accident...
516
00:18:42,290 --> 00:18:43,460
Why are you
standing there?
517
00:18:43,460 --> 00:18:44,710
I'm talking to Arthur.
518
00:18:43,460 --> 00:18:44,710
Okay.
519
00:18:44,710 --> 00:18:46,000
But when you're
talking about John,
520
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,960
it actually helps
to stand near him.
521
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,620
That'll subconsciously
associate John
522
00:18:50,620 --> 00:18:52,750
with the positive words
in the jurors' brains.
523
00:18:52,750 --> 00:18:55,290
Okay.
524
00:18:52,750 --> 00:18:55,290
But not when you mention
the negative details.
525
00:18:55,290 --> 00:18:56,500
Like the fight with the coach.
526
00:18:56,500 --> 00:18:58,210
Oh, no. They didn't
have a fight.
527
00:18:58,210 --> 00:19:01,000
He confronted a
hot-headed coach
528
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:02,620
who was taking the
game too seriously.
529
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:05,000
Will it even matter
where I stand
530
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,080
once they've
seen that video?
531
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:07,920
Everything matters.
532
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,210
The coach won't testify,
533
00:19:09,210 --> 00:19:11,710
so Danny's talking to
him now to find out why.
534
00:19:11,710 --> 00:19:13,880
John's right,
I want to win baseball games,
535
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,000
and there's no rule that says
you got to play all the kids
536
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,580
the same amount of time.
537
00:19:17,580 --> 00:19:18,960
But I don't blame John
for what happened.
538
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:19,960
He's a decent guy;
he means well.
539
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:21,420
When you said that,
540
00:19:21,420 --> 00:19:23,710
the prosecution chose not
to call you to the stand.
541
00:19:23,710 --> 00:19:26,330
I made it pretty clear that
I don't want to get involved.
542
00:19:26,330 --> 00:19:29,330
John doesn't deserve this,
and I feel for Carter.
543
00:19:29,330 --> 00:19:30,580
Even though you
benched him?
544
00:19:30,580 --> 00:19:33,000
Ugh. The kid is terrible.
545
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,920
And I don't want him to lose
his dad to prison
546
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:36,460
after he just lost his mom.
547
00:19:36,460 --> 00:19:39,750
Would you be willing to testify
that you instigated the fight?
548
00:19:39,750 --> 00:19:41,290
No.
549
00:19:41,290 --> 00:19:42,500
John lost it.
550
00:19:42,500 --> 00:19:43,830
Don't get me wrong.
551
00:19:43,830 --> 00:19:46,000
Parents go bananas out there
all the time.
552
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,420
Last week a shortstop's dad
553
00:19:47,420 --> 00:19:48,750
was critiquing another
kid's hitting,
554
00:19:48,750 --> 00:19:50,960
got a snow cone to the face.
555
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,250
I told you, it doesn't make
any of us look much better.
556
00:19:53,250 --> 00:19:55,920
Is there anything that you could
tell me that might help?
557
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:57,710
Well, I didn't tell
the DA guy this,
558
00:19:57,710 --> 00:19:59,960
but Karen called right after
from the car.
559
00:19:59,960 --> 00:20:02,210
And?
560
00:19:59,960 --> 00:20:02,210
She wanted to apologize.
561
00:20:02,210 --> 00:20:04,000
Had something to explain,
but then John yelled at her
562
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,330
and she hung up.
563
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,330
Explain what?
564
00:20:05,330 --> 00:20:06,540
I don't know.
565
00:20:06,540 --> 00:20:10,170
Look, I wish him well.
566
00:20:10,170 --> 00:20:11,670
Thank you.
567
00:20:11,670 --> 00:20:14,790
So he fought with the coach and
his wife before the accident?
568
00:20:14,790 --> 00:20:16,000
All part of
the same fight.
569
00:20:14,790 --> 00:20:16,000
It's not helping.
570
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,040
I debriefed the mirror jury
after they saw the video,
571
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:20,920
looks like we only have five
of 12 on John's side.
572
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,710
Three guiltys.
573
00:20:22,710 --> 00:20:25,710
Arthur Jolene, and the two
clustering around him.
574
00:20:25,710 --> 00:20:27,170
Think the fight's
clear evidence
575
00:20:27,170 --> 00:20:28,580
that John's an angry guy
who shouldn't have gotten
576
00:20:28,580 --> 00:20:30,290
behind the wheel.
577
00:20:28,580 --> 00:20:30,290
John was angry.
578
00:20:30,290 --> 00:20:32,960
But he's not an angry guy,
and the jury needs to see that.
579
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:34,250
You working a theory?
580
00:20:34,250 --> 00:20:36,920
First, we have to dispense
with Assemblyman Dormit.
581
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:38,710
Assuming Gil
follows the plan.
582
00:20:38,710 --> 00:20:40,580
Dormit eats lawyers
like Gil for lunch.
583
00:20:40,580 --> 00:20:42,000
For breakfast.
584
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,330
It's the most important meal
of the day.
585
00:20:43,330 --> 00:20:44,380
I think it's lunch.
586
00:20:44,380 --> 00:20:46,580
Gil will not be eaten.
587
00:20:46,580 --> 00:20:50,040
Now, someone needs to go through
John's insurance claims
588
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,210
for the last five years.
589
00:20:51,210 --> 00:20:53,960
Medical.
590
00:20:51,210 --> 00:20:53,960
It's not exactly legal,
is it?
591
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,040
Well, then, it's a good thing
no one here is doing it.
592
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:57,920
Especially not...
Cable!
593
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,120
Today?
594
00:21:00,120 --> 00:21:01,830
Judge Lamkin.
595
00:21:01,830 --> 00:21:04,080
I'll meet you
guys in there.
596
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,830
Now, you don't work
at this courthouse.
597
00:21:06,830 --> 00:21:09,710
No. But I do live
in Nassau County.
598
00:21:06,830 --> 00:21:09,710
Oh!
599
00:21:09,710 --> 00:21:10,920
You're taking my advice.
600
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,500
Running for State Assembly.
601
00:21:12,500 --> 00:21:14,920
It's something I've
wanted to do for years,
602
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,500
but I never really
thought I had a shot.
603
00:21:16,500 --> 00:21:18,620
Hmm.
604
00:21:16,500 --> 00:21:18,620
Are you sure
about this?
605
00:21:18,620 --> 00:21:20,920
100%.
606
00:21:18,620 --> 00:21:20,920
Then I'm off to file.
607
00:21:29,460 --> 00:21:32,170
Assemblyman Dormit, can you
608
00:21:32,170 --> 00:21:34,040
identify the driver?
609
00:21:32,170 --> 00:21:34,040
Yeah, he's sitting
610
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,170
right over there.
611
00:21:35,170 --> 00:21:37,500
Well, I was
trying to switch lanes
612
00:21:37,500 --> 00:21:39,500
so he could pass, but
613
00:21:39,500 --> 00:21:41,380
he was already
swerving around me.
614
00:21:41,380 --> 00:21:43,040
Nearly ran me off the road.
615
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:44,500
Gave me
an angry look.
616
00:21:44,500 --> 00:21:46,000
I thought maybe he was drunk.
617
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,120
Objection, assumes facts
not in evidence.
618
00:21:49,120 --> 00:21:51,080
And actually, we have
John's blood alcohol level
619
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:52,170
on record as being
620
00:21:52,170 --> 00:21:54,080
below the
legal limit, so,
621
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,040
assumes lies not in evidence.
622
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,040
That's not actually a thing,
623
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,250
Mr. Foster, but point taken.
624
00:21:59,250 --> 00:22:00,880
And then what happened?
625
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,500
Then I saw the road sign.
It said
626
00:22:03,500 --> 00:22:06,040
"Slow: Congestion Ahead."
627
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,250
So I slowed down.
And as I
628
00:22:08,250 --> 00:22:11,460
rounded the bend I saw
the huge crash he'd caused.
629
00:22:11,460 --> 00:22:14,210
Thank you. That's all.
630
00:22:14,210 --> 00:22:16,920
Mr. Dormit,
would you happen to know
631
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,080
how many drivers
are prosecuted
632
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,000
for car accidents
in this district?
633
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,330
Not off the top of my head, no.
634
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,330
Well, even when
635
00:22:23,330 --> 00:22:26,170
there's a fatality,
it's less than
636
00:22:26,170 --> 00:22:28,170
five percent of the time, right?
637
00:22:26,170 --> 00:22:28,170
I guess
638
00:22:28,170 --> 00:22:29,790
something like that.
639
00:22:28,170 --> 00:22:29,790
Which would certainly
640
00:22:29,790 --> 00:22:31,500
makes it seem like John's
641
00:22:31,500 --> 00:22:33,290
being unfairly
singled out.
642
00:22:31,500 --> 00:22:33,290
Get to a question,
643
00:22:33,290 --> 00:22:35,170
Mr. Foster.
644
00:22:35,170 --> 00:22:36,500
Do you have an agenda,
645
00:22:36,500 --> 00:22:38,880
Mr. Dormit?
After the accident,
646
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:40,250
did you call your friend
647
00:22:40,250 --> 00:22:42,040
and golf buddy,
the district attorney,
648
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,460
and personally request
that John be charged?
649
00:22:45,460 --> 00:22:47,380
That is moronic.
650
00:22:47,380 --> 00:22:49,750
Name calling
is not
651
00:22:49,750 --> 00:22:51,170
the same as giving an answer.
652
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,080
Gil put his first points
on the board.
653
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,040
Look at the spike in vitals
on his mirror juror's biometer.
654
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,420
A crack
in Arthur Jolene's cluster.
655
00:23:06,420 --> 00:23:08,210
Not hard
to tap into people's outrage
656
00:23:08,210 --> 00:23:09,750
against the abuse
of power.
657
00:23:09,750 --> 00:23:11,670
Juror number nine
swore he'd never vote again
658
00:23:11,670 --> 00:23:13,880
after the last election.
659
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,170
How many speeches did you give
after John's wreck in support
660
00:23:16,170 --> 00:23:19,460
of a new highway project
in your district?
661
00:23:19,460 --> 00:23:20,920
I give a lot of speeches.
662
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,380
Six.
663
00:23:23,380 --> 00:23:24,920
By the way,
664
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,880
I love the slogan
from your last election.
665
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:30,710
"All roads lead to Dormit."
666
00:23:30,710 --> 00:23:32,120
It's catchy.
667
00:23:32,120 --> 00:23:33,330
You sponsored the roads.
668
00:23:33,330 --> 00:23:36,120
Objection. Relevance.
669
00:23:33,330 --> 00:23:36,120
The next words
better be relevant,
670
00:23:36,120 --> 00:23:37,500
Mr. Foster.
671
00:23:38,830 --> 00:23:40,710
Mr. Dormit, do
you have something
672
00:23:40,710 --> 00:23:43,000
to personally gain
from John's conviction,
673
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,620
perhaps having
something to do with
674
00:23:45,620 --> 00:23:47,540
the road improvement bill
for Nassau County
675
00:23:47,540 --> 00:23:49,040
that you sponsored?
676
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:50,710
Isn't it true
that your brother
677
00:23:50,710 --> 00:23:53,960
owns a concrete factory?
678
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,380
I'm not saying
there were kickbacks...
679
00:23:55,380 --> 00:23:56,380
Now, hold on...
680
00:23:55,380 --> 00:23:56,380
You hold on.
681
00:23:56,380 --> 00:23:57,670
Now, who the hell are you?
682
00:23:57,670 --> 00:24:00,710
Those projects were fair,
created jobs...
683
00:24:00,710 --> 00:24:01,750
For your family.
684
00:24:03,250 --> 00:24:04,620
He's the criminal.
685
00:24:04,620 --> 00:24:06,500
Right there.
686
00:24:06,500 --> 00:24:08,380
He is.
687
00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:16,210
Marissa says
we gained a few.
688
00:24:16,210 --> 00:24:17,830
Where's John?
689
00:24:17,830 --> 00:24:20,210
He went outside
to cool off.
690
00:24:20,210 --> 00:24:23,540
Can't blame him for not being
Dormit's biggest fan.
691
00:24:23,540 --> 00:24:26,210
Remember the first thing
I told you when you joined TAC?
692
00:24:26,210 --> 00:24:29,170
Uh, you said never stop
at a client's first confession.
693
00:24:29,170 --> 00:24:31,960
It's only the beginning.
694
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,500
John.
695
00:24:33,500 --> 00:24:34,880
Hey, Dr. Bull.
696
00:24:33,500 --> 00:24:34,880
Hey.
697
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:36,540
John, slow down.
Hey...
698
00:24:36,540 --> 00:24:38,460
it's one thing
to stare down Dormit in court,
699
00:24:38,460 --> 00:24:40,290
it's another
to confront him in his car.
700
00:24:40,290 --> 00:24:42,380
I don't care anymore, okay?
701
00:24:40,290 --> 00:24:42,380
What would a jury think?
702
00:24:42,380 --> 00:24:43,670
You have to think.
703
00:24:43,670 --> 00:24:45,290
He is ruining my life.
704
00:24:43,670 --> 00:24:45,290
Shh, shh.
705
00:24:45,290 --> 00:24:46,880
He doesn't care about your life.
706
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:48,330
He's a political
opportunist, okay?
707
00:24:48,330 --> 00:24:50,880
And that may be
pathetic and awful,
708
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,620
but he's not
your biggest problem.
709
00:24:52,620 --> 00:24:55,040
You are.
710
00:25:00,170 --> 00:25:03,670
John, what were you and Karen
fighting about before the crash?
711
00:25:03,670 --> 00:25:06,290
It was nothing.
712
00:25:06,290 --> 00:25:08,960
I mean, she was mad
that I went after the coach.
713
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:10,830
Because he didn't know
about Carter.
714
00:25:10,830 --> 00:25:13,290
There's nothing
wrong with my son.
715
00:25:13,290 --> 00:25:15,460
You can hide it all you want,
716
00:25:15,460 --> 00:25:17,620
but it's all I see.
717
00:25:23,380 --> 00:25:25,290
Carter's had his challenges,
hasn't he?
718
00:25:27,460 --> 00:25:29,420
He has some kind of, um,
719
00:25:29,420 --> 00:25:31,420
motor planning disorder.
720
00:25:31,420 --> 00:25:32,420
I know.
721
00:25:32,420 --> 00:25:34,080
He's been in
physical therapy
722
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,170
for the last two years.
723
00:25:36,170 --> 00:25:38,380
Three times a week.
724
00:25:38,380 --> 00:25:39,880
Mm.
725
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,210
He's just as good
as any of these other kids.
726
00:25:42,210 --> 00:25:44,750
He just has to work
twice as hard.
727
00:25:44,750 --> 00:25:47,040
So...
728
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:48,710
when he got benched,
you know, I just...
729
00:25:48,710 --> 00:25:50,290
Yeah, but why don't you
just tell the coach
730
00:25:50,290 --> 00:25:51,460
he needs a little extra help?
731
00:25:51,460 --> 00:25:53,380
Karen wanted to, but I-I...
732
00:25:53,380 --> 00:25:55,420
I-I don't want people
treating him differently.
733
00:26:01,710 --> 00:26:04,420
But in the car,
734
00:26:04,420 --> 00:26:07,290
she said that I was ashamed.
735
00:26:07,290 --> 00:26:09,290
Of my own son.
736
00:26:12,250 --> 00:26:14,290
And that's what
you were fighting about...
737
00:26:14,290 --> 00:26:15,830
Carter, watch your stance!
738
00:26:15,830 --> 00:26:17,540
...before the crash.
739
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,540
This is something
you have to tell the jury.
740
00:26:22,540 --> 00:26:24,420
They will understand, too.
741
00:26:22,540 --> 00:26:24,420
No.
742
00:26:24,420 --> 00:26:25,620
No.
743
00:26:25,620 --> 00:26:28,250
This stays between us.
744
00:26:37,750 --> 00:26:39,750
Have a seat.
745
00:26:43,830 --> 00:26:46,290
Look, I'll testify, but, uh...
746
00:26:46,290 --> 00:26:48,830
I don't see how I could
possibly be a good witness.
747
00:26:48,830 --> 00:26:51,750
John, you and your wife
loved each other very much.
748
00:26:51,750 --> 00:26:52,880
I've seen it in the photos,
749
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,960
in the stories,
everything Carter says.
750
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,120
I know, but...
751
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,120
And you had a fight.
752
00:26:57,120 --> 00:26:59,380
Like every other married couple
on the planet.
753
00:26:57,120 --> 00:26:59,380
Dr. Bull,
754
00:26:59,380 --> 00:27:01,420
you don't understand. The way
that we yelled-- it was...
755
00:27:01,420 --> 00:27:03,330
It wasn't the first time
that you fought about
756
00:27:03,330 --> 00:27:05,330
whether or not to tell someone
about Carter's condition,
757
00:27:05,330 --> 00:27:06,750
was it?
758
00:27:08,330 --> 00:27:10,920
I know this isn't easy,
but neither is hiding it.
759
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:11,920
I'm not hiding it.
760
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,040
I just... I want him
to have a real childhood.
761
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,420
I mean, you start
talking to people,
762
00:27:20,420 --> 00:27:22,000
and... he doesn't get on a team,
763
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:23,420
he gets singled out.
764
00:27:25,500 --> 00:27:27,920
You know, nothing
should hold him back.
765
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,290
That's what I want you to say
on the stand.
766
00:27:33,290 --> 00:27:34,960
No. I'm...
767
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,960
I'm not using my son to win
the sympathy of strangers.
768
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,460
I got to go to work.
769
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,330
Hey, why aren't you bantering
with your Internet troll friend?
770
00:27:49,330 --> 00:27:51,420
He, uh, went dark.
771
00:27:51,420 --> 00:27:54,880
Why? I thought he was
following John's case.
772
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:55,880
Gave you the Dormit intel.
773
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,710
I know. I thought
he'd be all
774
00:27:57,710 --> 00:27:59,500
excited about Dormit's
flailing in court.
775
00:27:59,500 --> 00:28:01,330
He's a good
hacker, too.
776
00:28:01,330 --> 00:28:03,120
But he's really
hard to find.
777
00:28:03,120 --> 00:28:05,170
Well, you know
what Bull would say?
778
00:28:05,170 --> 00:28:06,960
Something cryptic that
takes me days to understand?
779
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,960
Cable, when you're a hammer,
780
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,880
everything looks like a nail.
781
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:12,620
You're coming at it
like a hacker.
782
00:28:12,620 --> 00:28:14,290
Right?
Only looking online.
783
00:28:14,290 --> 00:28:15,880
But you got to think
big picture.
784
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,040
This guy's
sympathizing with John.
785
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:19,120
Why?
786
00:28:20,420 --> 00:28:21,620
MARISSA:
Gil's cross of Dormit
787
00:28:21,620 --> 00:28:22,880
convinced two fence-sitters
788
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,500
that John is getting
unfairly railroaded.
789
00:28:25,500 --> 00:28:27,290
Oof.
I'm not sure we can
790
00:28:27,290 --> 00:28:29,580
get the other two if John
won't explain the whole story
791
00:28:29,580 --> 00:28:32,170
behind the fight. If the jury
hears the whole context,
792
00:28:32,170 --> 00:28:33,710
they'll see John
as a loving father,
793
00:28:33,710 --> 00:28:36,580
not as an
angry driver. But...
794
00:28:36,580 --> 00:28:39,170
without that, they'll default
to the prosecution's version.
795
00:28:39,170 --> 00:28:41,500
And our cluster's still
holding firm around Bird-man?
796
00:28:41,500 --> 00:28:43,250
Well, we observed
jurors eight and two
797
00:28:43,250 --> 00:28:45,330
at a nearby cafeteria
agreeing with each other
798
00:28:45,330 --> 00:28:48,960
that Gil's new cross of Dormit
was weak at best.
799
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,120
His mirror juror's still
hung up on the road sign
800
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,120
Dormit mentioned. Can't
see how John missed it.
801
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:54,960
So we'll do a better job
at convincing him
802
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,210
the sign's irrelevant.
803
00:28:56,210 --> 00:28:57,540
It's not that easy--
804
00:28:57,540 --> 00:28:58,960
he's not naturally
an intuitive thinker,
805
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,540
you can't change him in a day.
It's like trying
806
00:29:00,540 --> 00:29:03,500
to get an introvert
to be the life of the party.
807
00:29:03,500 --> 00:29:06,210
So what do we do?
808
00:29:03,500 --> 00:29:06,210
Let's forget about
Arthur for the moment.
809
00:29:06,210 --> 00:29:08,540
Shore up our maybes.
810
00:29:06,210 --> 00:29:08,540
How?
811
00:29:08,540 --> 00:29:10,040
John said he won't talk.
812
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,040
Correct.
813
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,920
But we can have Gil
bring up Carter's condition.
814
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,380
You want me to ambush
my own client on the stand?
815
00:29:18,380 --> 00:29:20,080
Gil...
816
00:29:18,380 --> 00:29:20,080
No. No way.
817
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,580
My job is to tend
to the needs of the client.
818
00:29:22,580 --> 00:29:25,920
Your job is to make sure that
John does not rot in prison.
819
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,920
Your job is to make
sure that his son
820
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:29,960
doesn't end up
in foster care.
821
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:38,080
The game is done, all right?
822
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:38,960
He has to sit
on the bench...
823
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:40,040
...wasn't trying
to do nothing.
824
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,540
I want to win games out there.
825
00:29:41,540 --> 00:29:43,000
What is-what is this,
the World Series?
826
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:44,920
Listen, maybe you find
a different sport for your son.
827
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,330
And then you shoved the coach?
828
00:29:48,330 --> 00:29:50,000
I pushed him.
829
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:51,960
I know that that video
looks awful and, uh,
830
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,120
believe me,
I'm not proud of it.
831
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,880
Why do you think
the coach doesn't
832
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,000
want to play Carter as
much as the other kids?
833
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,460
I'm not saying that
he's a top player, but Carter
834
00:30:02,460 --> 00:30:05,120
should be able to play
more than just last inning.
835
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,920
Carter had any trouble
keeping up with the other kids?
836
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,040
No.
837
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:10,540
What's that supposed to mean?
838
00:30:13,170 --> 00:30:14,210
John,
839
00:30:14,210 --> 00:30:16,460
I have some
documents here from
840
00:30:16,460 --> 00:30:18,540
Carter's
developmental pediatrician.
841
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:22,540
They speak
to some challenges
842
00:30:22,540 --> 00:30:24,500
he's faced
in the past 18 months.
843
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:27,620
Tell us
844
00:30:27,620 --> 00:30:29,250
what was really going
through your head
845
00:30:29,250 --> 00:30:31,710
when you went
to talk to the coach.
846
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:50,580
Carter has
a motor planning disorder.
847
00:30:50,580 --> 00:30:52,920
He's a smart kid,
848
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:54,880
he's the best kid
in the world,
849
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,120
it just takes him some
extra practice to, uh...
850
00:31:01,710 --> 00:31:04,080
I'm sorry, I, um,
851
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,210
I didn't come here today
852
00:31:06,210 --> 00:31:08,000
to talk about Carter.
I just-I just never wanted him
853
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,250
to be, uh, treated differently,
to be seen as weak.
854
00:31:18,830 --> 00:31:20,920
Karen wanted me to tell people.
855
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,710
And Karen was the smartest
person that I know.
856
00:31:34,210 --> 00:31:35,710
We won over the maybes,
857
00:31:35,710 --> 00:31:38,040
but Arthur is still
hung up on the road sign.
858
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,580
He needs one more detail
to latch on to.
859
00:31:40,580 --> 00:31:42,750
I might have
a lead on that.
860
00:31:42,750 --> 00:31:44,250
And you've been withholding?
861
00:31:44,250 --> 00:31:46,120
You're one to talk.
862
00:31:44,250 --> 00:31:46,120
What do you mean?
863
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,120
Oh, the new dresses,
leaving at 7:30.
864
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:49,540
You're dating someone.
865
00:31:49,540 --> 00:31:51,120
And you're being
unusually cagey about it.
866
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:52,790
Yeah, don't make
me do a deep dive.
867
00:31:52,790 --> 00:31:54,620
Hey, we have one rule
around here.
868
00:31:54,620 --> 00:31:56,830
No investigating teammates.
869
00:31:54,620 --> 00:31:56,830
Oh.
870
00:31:56,830 --> 00:31:58,920
Then you shouldn't work with
a team of investigators, lady.
871
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:00,960
Arthur is not interested
in my dating life.
872
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,120
Can you please find something
for him to focus on?
873
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:04,670
I'm on it.
874
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,420
Hey!
875
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,420
You're Austin.
876
00:32:09,420 --> 00:32:11,120
Do I know you?
877
00:32:09,420 --> 00:32:11,120
Yeah, virtually.
878
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,750
We were talking online
about your favorite assemblyman.
879
00:32:14,750 --> 00:32:16,670
I'm a friend of John Phillips.
880
00:32:16,670 --> 00:32:17,960
I... I got to go.
881
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,540
Oh, yeah, you could.
882
00:32:19,540 --> 00:32:21,920
You're a really good
hacker, Austin.
883
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,960
You hid your identity perfectly.
884
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,790
All but once.
885
00:32:26,790 --> 00:32:29,880
When you donated to
Karen Phillip's memorial fund.
886
00:32:32,500 --> 00:32:35,290
It was supposed
to be a dumb prank.
887
00:32:35,290 --> 00:32:38,040
I knew that Dormit would be
driving by that day.
888
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,040
He'd been tweeting about
the fund-raiser all day.
889
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,580
You... you really don't
like the guy.
890
00:32:42,580 --> 00:32:44,580
My mom works
at Bretner Library.
891
00:32:44,580 --> 00:32:47,460
Or she used to... until...
892
00:32:47,460 --> 00:32:48,790
Dormit demolished it
to make room
893
00:32:48,790 --> 00:32:51,330
for that new highway
interchange off Exit 7.
894
00:32:51,330 --> 00:32:53,330
Dormit says, "Who cares?
895
00:32:53,330 --> 00:32:55,500
Nobody reads books
anymore anyways."
896
00:32:55,500 --> 00:32:57,790
So I thought I'd get
back at him somehow.
897
00:32:57,790 --> 00:32:59,290
What did you do, Austin?
898
00:33:00,750 --> 00:33:01,830
What the hell is that?
899
00:33:01,830 --> 00:33:03,670
"No need to read"?
900
00:33:03,670 --> 00:33:06,170
We found this
on Instagram.
901
00:33:06,170 --> 00:33:07,620
Austin hacked
the sign.
902
00:33:07,620 --> 00:33:08,880
Somebody's gonna get fired.
903
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:10,170
"No Need to Read"
904
00:33:10,170 --> 00:33:12,830
is just the hacker's
stupid joke for Dormit.
905
00:33:12,830 --> 00:33:15,040
It was there about 20
minutes before traffic
906
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:16,670
clogged up enough
to cause the accident.
907
00:33:16,670 --> 00:33:18,210
Once he realized
what he had done,
908
00:33:18,210 --> 00:33:19,790
he switched it back.
909
00:33:19,790 --> 00:33:21,830
John, you really had no warning.
910
00:33:21,830 --> 00:33:24,080
This sign didn't say,
"Slow: congestion ahead."
911
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,500
This is it.
912
00:33:26,500 --> 00:33:28,000
This is the exact detail
we needed,
913
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:29,040
because Arthur's
a rule-follower,
914
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:30,710
and he'll know
that our client
915
00:33:30,710 --> 00:33:32,170
did not break
the rule.
916
00:33:32,170 --> 00:33:34,210
So we recall John
back on stand?
917
00:33:36,500 --> 00:33:38,250
John?
918
00:33:38,250 --> 00:33:41,290
I can't do that.
919
00:33:41,290 --> 00:33:43,000
Why not?
920
00:33:41,290 --> 00:33:43,000
I...
921
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:44,620
I don't think
I ever saw the sign.
922
00:33:44,620 --> 00:33:46,000
I-I don't remember it.
923
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,080
At all.
924
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:52,040
If you don't remember
seeing it, so, the prosecution
925
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,880
will say
the hack doesn't matter.
926
00:33:56,710 --> 00:33:58,710
Recall John.
927
00:34:00,290 --> 00:34:03,460
Let 'em try.
928
00:34:03,460 --> 00:34:06,710
Isn't it odd,
Mr. Phillips, that you're just
929
00:34:06,710 --> 00:34:08,540
now remembering
this hacked sign?
930
00:34:08,540 --> 00:34:11,920
It is, but so is
being prosecuted
931
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:13,960
for a car accident
after losing my wife.
932
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:15,120
After killing your wife,
you mean.
933
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:16,420
Objection!
934
00:34:16,420 --> 00:34:18,080
Sustained.
935
00:34:19,830 --> 00:34:21,210
Why didn't you tell us
936
00:34:21,210 --> 00:34:23,120
that the sign
was hacked?
937
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,040
Because you never saw it?
938
00:34:29,380 --> 00:34:31,330
The only one
to watch is Arthur.
939
00:34:31,330 --> 00:34:34,380
So far, he's still
with the prosecution.
940
00:34:34,380 --> 00:34:36,250
Bull knows what he's doing.
941
00:34:36,250 --> 00:34:38,880
Isn't there only one good reason
why you missed the sign?
942
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:40,620
Isn't it because you were
driving under the influence?
943
00:34:40,620 --> 00:34:42,620
Objection!
944
00:34:40,620 --> 00:34:42,620
Overruled.
945
00:34:42,620 --> 00:34:45,040
You had a drink,
you were driving
946
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,000
in a fit of rage...
947
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,000
That's not what happened.
948
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:48,170
You were so angry that
949
00:34:48,170 --> 00:34:49,620
you couldn't think straight.
Otherwise,
950
00:34:49,620 --> 00:34:51,620
you would have seen that giant
sign right in front of you,
951
00:34:51,620 --> 00:34:53,040
and Karen would still be alive,
952
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:54,120
wouldn't she?
953
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:54,120
That's not true!
954
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:55,790
Do you remember
955
00:34:55,790 --> 00:35:00,210
seeing the sign,
hacked or not?
956
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,080
No.
957
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,210
I don't remember seeing it.
958
00:35:09,210 --> 00:35:12,960
Then it doesn't matter
if the sign was hacked.
959
00:35:21,290 --> 00:35:23,380
All right, this is the fun part.
960
00:35:23,380 --> 00:35:25,290
Right. The circus act.
961
00:35:25,290 --> 00:35:28,040
It's psychology,
not a parade of elephants.
962
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,120
It's just the
closing argument.
963
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:31,830
You can do this.
964
00:35:31,830 --> 00:35:33,170
You want me
965
00:35:33,170 --> 00:35:35,080
to lure the jury
into a trap.
966
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,120
That's a little bit
like a circus.
967
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,290
Follow my lead.
968
00:35:39,290 --> 00:35:42,080
The prosecution argues that the
hacked sign doesn't matter...
969
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:43,790
The prosecution argues that
970
00:35:43,790 --> 00:35:45,000
the hacked sign doesn't matter.
971
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:46,000
Because John didn't see it.
972
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,120
Because John didn't see it.
973
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,790
And if he had seen it,
well, obviously,
974
00:35:50,790 --> 00:35:52,000
he would have remembered it.
975
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:54,500
Right?
976
00:35:54,500 --> 00:35:56,540
Wrong.
977
00:35:56,540 --> 00:35:58,750
Our brains take in
thousands of pieces
978
00:35:58,750 --> 00:36:02,210
of information every minute,
and our brains have to
979
00:36:02,210 --> 00:36:04,710
unconsciously make choices.
980
00:36:02,210 --> 00:36:04,710
Unconsciously make choices.
981
00:36:04,710 --> 00:36:07,120
And we focus on what matters.
982
00:36:04,710 --> 00:36:07,120
We focus on what matters.
983
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:11,210
A sign that says
"No Need to Read"?
984
00:36:11,210 --> 00:36:13,000
Well, it doesn't matter.
985
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:17,540
Still, I understand
that maybe you don't believe me.
986
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,290
And I figured...
this is too important a detail
987
00:36:22,290 --> 00:36:24,830
to just take on faith.
988
00:36:24,830 --> 00:36:26,620
So this morning,
989
00:36:26,620 --> 00:36:30,250
I actually removed a sign
from this courtroom.
990
00:36:30,250 --> 00:36:32,290
It was big,
991
00:36:32,290 --> 00:36:34,960
and it was noticeable,
992
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:36,670
and it's been on that wall
993
00:36:36,670 --> 00:36:39,250
for the entire length
of this trial.
994
00:36:39,250 --> 00:36:44,210
So, can anyone tell
me what it said?
995
00:36:45,250 --> 00:36:47,120
Nobody?
996
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:50,040
How can you be sure
they won't remember?
997
00:36:52,210 --> 00:36:54,120
Okay, right.
I should have learned
998
00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,710
to trust you and your
witchcraft by now.
999
00:36:56,710 --> 00:36:58,250
It's not witchcraft.
1000
00:36:59,210 --> 00:37:01,120
It's science.
1001
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:04,420
John read that road sign
1002
00:37:04,420 --> 00:37:06,420
the way you all read
that courtroom sign,
1003
00:37:06,420 --> 00:37:09,210
but he dismissed it,
just like you did,
1004
00:37:09,210 --> 00:37:12,080
because it wasn't relevant.
1005
00:37:13,790 --> 00:37:15,670
Just like this one.
1006
00:37:15,670 --> 00:37:19,250
"A court officer must be present
at all times."
1007
00:37:19,250 --> 00:37:21,420
Mr. Foster, I'd appreciate it
1008
00:37:21,420 --> 00:37:24,120
if you would return my sign now.
1009
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,710
Of course, but this
1010
00:37:26,710 --> 00:37:29,210
wasn't actually a sign
that was on the wall.
1011
00:37:30,750 --> 00:37:32,080
This was.
1012
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,250
Objection. Clearly
misleading the jury,
1013
00:37:34,250 --> 00:37:36,170
Judge Bergen.
1014
00:37:34,250 --> 00:37:36,170
That's my point,
1015
00:37:36,170 --> 00:37:38,580
Mr. Mercado. It's
relevant to our case.
1016
00:37:38,580 --> 00:37:41,830
Mr. Foster, put back the sign.
1017
00:37:41,830 --> 00:37:43,620
Absolutely, Your Honor.
1018
00:37:45,250 --> 00:37:46,620
The point is,
1019
00:37:46,620 --> 00:37:48,580
they weren't relevant.
1020
00:37:46,620 --> 00:37:48,580
They weren't relevant.
1021
00:37:48,580 --> 00:37:52,580
So you had no memory
of seeing them,
1022
00:37:52,580 --> 00:37:54,790
or not seeing them.
1023
00:37:56,830 --> 00:37:58,420
Just...
1024
00:37:58,420 --> 00:38:01,330
like... John.
1025
00:38:06,170 --> 00:38:08,380
And I can assure you,
1026
00:38:06,170 --> 00:38:08,380
I can assure you,
1027
00:38:08,380 --> 00:38:11,920
had that road sign said
something relevant,
1028
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:13,460
had it said, "Slow:
1029
00:38:13,460 --> 00:38:17,120
congestion ahead," well,
1030
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,710
John would have
remembered it, and reacted.
1031
00:38:27,580 --> 00:38:30,040
It would have saved Karen's
1032
00:38:27,580 --> 00:38:30,040
It would have saved Karen's
1033
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:31,580
life.
1034
00:38:54,420 --> 00:38:56,960
This is 107.4
with your hourly news update.
1035
00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,040
An acquittal today in the John
Phillips manslaughter case
1036
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:00,790
involving the death
of his wife Karen.
1037
00:39:00,790 --> 00:39:02,960
The case proceedings may have
opened up further legal action
1038
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:04,670
against State Assemblyman
Trevor Dormit...
1039
00:39:04,670 --> 00:39:08,420
Hey. I owe you... a lot.
1040
00:39:08,420 --> 00:39:10,750
I told you, I'm already
collecting from Judge Lamkin.
1041
00:39:10,750 --> 00:39:15,330
Now, there is one thing
you, uh, you need to do.
1042
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,170
Just tell me I don't have to
reenact my fight with the coach.
1043
00:39:20,170 --> 00:39:22,420
Oh, I'm not gonna
make you do that.
1044
00:39:22,420 --> 00:39:24,710
You just have to admit
Karen was right.
1045
00:39:24,710 --> 00:39:26,750
She knew the secret.
1046
00:39:26,750 --> 00:39:31,040
Instead of hiding how Carter's
different, maybe it's better
1047
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:32,460
to embrace it.
1048
00:39:32,460 --> 00:39:33,830
He doesn't have
1049
00:39:33,830 --> 00:39:35,710
to hit home runs
to be happy.
1050
00:39:35,710 --> 00:39:37,960
That was Daddy's joy.
1051
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,460
He wants to make you proud.
1052
00:39:39,460 --> 00:39:40,670
He doesn't have to.
1053
00:39:40,670 --> 00:39:42,710
We know that,
but does he?
1054
00:39:42,710 --> 00:39:45,080
Dad!
1055
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,460
Hey. Did you see
my stance?
1056
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,460
Yeah.
1057
00:39:47,460 --> 00:39:49,460
Buddy, you looked great.
1058
00:39:49,460 --> 00:39:51,500
So, what about this batter?
1059
00:39:51,500 --> 00:39:52,750
What's his average?
1060
00:39:52,750 --> 00:39:55,290
.310, but his OBP is better.
1061
00:39:55,290 --> 00:39:59,580
.415 for home games,
and his slugging is .523.
1062
00:39:59,580 --> 00:40:00,710
Awesome, right?
1063
00:40:00,710 --> 00:40:02,420
Yeah. Covered in awesome sauce.
1064
00:40:02,420 --> 00:40:03,790
All right,
I'll see you later.
1065
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,580
So, uh,
what are the pitcher's stats?
1066
00:40:08,580 --> 00:40:10,500
He's pretty good.
I mean...
1067
00:40:10,500 --> 00:40:11,710
The batter?
1068
00:40:10,500 --> 00:40:11,710
He's not a
1069
00:40:11,710 --> 00:40:13,250
stick in the ground, either.
1070
00:40:13,250 --> 00:40:15,170
Player over there
looks pretty tough.
1071
00:40:15,170 --> 00:40:16,830
That one's good.
1072
00:40:20,380 --> 00:40:23,710
Here it comes. Oh, yeah.
1073
00:40:23,710 --> 00:40:25,210
Mmm, mmm, mmm!
1074
00:40:25,210 --> 00:40:27,290
You guys got
pineapple again?
1075
00:40:27,290 --> 00:40:29,790
Stop focusing
on the details, Chunk.
1076
00:40:29,790 --> 00:40:31,420
I could focus
on the details
1077
00:40:31,420 --> 00:40:32,710
if they weren't
covered in pineapple.
1078
00:40:32,710 --> 00:40:35,000
How do you respond...
1079
00:40:32,710 --> 00:40:35,000
Ooh, hot! Ooh!
1080
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:36,830
...to charges of perjury
in the Phillips trial?
1081
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:36,830
There it is.
1082
00:40:36,830 --> 00:40:39,620
Boo!
1083
00:40:39,620 --> 00:40:42,920
So how's your ex-husband?
1084
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,420
It's tricky business,
rekindling with Greg.
1085
00:40:45,420 --> 00:40:47,790
Who told you?
1086
00:40:47,790 --> 00:40:49,620
You did.
1087
00:40:49,620 --> 00:40:51,960
You wore three different
shades of green this week.
1088
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:53,920
That was his favorite color.
1089
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:57,790
Haven't worn green
in a long time.
1090
00:40:57,790 --> 00:40:59,790
I know it's probably a bad idea,
1091
00:40:59,790 --> 00:41:01,880
and I promise
I won't come to you again
1092
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,790
when things go south...
1093
00:41:04,790 --> 00:41:08,000
You can always come to me.
1094
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,120
Thank you.
1095
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:11,290
Hey, guys,
check this out.
1096
00:41:11,290 --> 00:41:12,880
Have you seen this billboard?
1097
00:41:15,580 --> 00:41:16,830
Judge Lamkin?
1098
00:41:16,830 --> 00:41:19,290
She's running against
Dormit in the next election.
1099
00:41:19,290 --> 00:41:20,920
That's amazing.
1100
00:41:19,290 --> 00:41:20,920
Awesome.
1101
00:41:19,290 --> 00:41:20,920
Look at that.
1102
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:22,290
Wasn't that a billboard
for Dormit?
1103
00:41:22,290 --> 00:41:24,880
Austin's not the only
hacker around here.
