All right folks, listen up.
I'm gonna make this as quick and painless as possible.
I wanna review the memo I sent out regarding my policies
for L.A. County moving forward.
First and foremost, we are suspending the pursuance
of cash bail for misdemeanors, non-violent,
and non-serious felony offenses.
We already tried this, it doesn't work.
Let's save the questions until the end.
The numbers show a good percentage of these people
commit more crimes while awaiting their trial dates.
Well frankly, it's a system rooted in racism.
We're no longer letting criminals free,
just because they're rich enough to pay bail.
And we're not going to punish poor people
who haven't been convicted of a crime,
because they can't afford bail.
Mhm, fair enough.
We're also putting a hold on alleging gang enhancements
and the transfer of juveniles to adult court.
Does this new gang enhancement policy have anything to do
with the recent discovery of gangs
within the L.A. County Sheriff's Department?
No.
Any other questions? Terrific. All right.

I have a very special announcement to make.

Back on the record.
People v. Camila Callow, the defense has filed
a 9-9-5 motion.
As such, I will allow the moving party to proceed.
NESS: Thank you, Your Honor.
The defense is moving to dismiss both counts
in the information penal code section 3-47
distribution of poison foods and medicines
and penal codes section 1-87 murder.
On what grounds?
Let's go ahead and let the defense finish their argument.
- Well-- - [Sherri clears her throat]
Ms. Callow does not run the day-to-day
operations of her business.
She doesn't even handle the product.
Nectar employs an ethical drop ship business model.
State law stipulates that the importers considered
the manufacturer and has a duty of reasonable care.
Eh, the keywords there are "her business."
The defendant flagrantly disobeyed a court order
and her negligent mismanagement led to someone's death.
The issue here is that, Ms. Callow failed
to cease the sale of those harmful products,
after being ordered by a court to do so.
It will be up to a jury to decide
whether that amounts to implied malice.
The defense's motion to dismiss is denied.
Hey uh, Helen, have you seen Luke?
[suspenseful music builds]
Okay.

Ms. Sawskin, do you remember
when you started using Nectar product?
Around two years ago.
I was a big fan of Camila as an actress,
then began purchasing her self-help books and yoga videos.
And you were also an employee of Camila's,
- correct? - SAWSKIN: Yes.
MAGGIE: Were you employed with Nectar
when the original court order, to cease and desist
- was issued? - I was.
What was the company's response?
Nothing. Camila told us not to worry about it.
Different labeling maybe, but we never stopped selling anything.
This was around the time
- that you got sick, right? - SAWSKIN: Yes.
MAGGIE: Wha-- what were you diagnosed with?
SAWSKIN: Marburg virus.

I started hallucinating, and vomiting blood.

We'll file an appeal. The important thing is,
is that you're not going away for murder.
LOLA: Ms. Callow, I'd like to offer one last thing.
When you come out on the other side of this
and I have no doubt that you will,
I hope that you would use your platform
to put people ahead of profits.
Bailiff, please remove the defendant from my courtroom.

- [Vic knocking] - Come in.
You summoned.
[chuckles] Thank you for coming by.
Can I get you some coffee or something?
Ah, no, it's a little late in the day for caffeine.
Fair enough.
Well there's something I wanted to talk to you about
- in person. - Shoot.
Now, I know I'm gonna be your daughter-in-law
in the very near future, but I was your attorney first.
Something's going on.
Something you're not telling us.
- Look-- - Let me finish.
Now, if you need help, that's one thing.
But, I don't want whatever you're involved with
to interfere with Mark's life.
He just got this big promotion, and we're planning our wedding.
He's stressed out enough as it is and...
I know he won't say it but...
you showing up, out of the blue
has him thinking the worst.
I understand.
- Do you? - VIC: Yeah.
You don't need to worry about me.
I wanted to thank you for putting me up
in your place in such short notice, and--
Hell, I wanna thank you for everything.
I mean, I'd be spending the rest of my natural life
in prison if it weren't for you.
I don't wanna cause any more problems.
So, I will just skip the cocktail party
and leave tonight.
And please, tell Mark that I said
"Congratulations on everything."
You too, counselor. You too.
- [knock on door] - [exhales sharply]
- ANDRE: Hey. - Hey.
Don't get too comfortable.
[door clicks close]
Look, Dre,
whatever this is...
whatever you think this is,
it needs to be over.
If that was totally true,
would I be standing in your office right now?
You're here because I have found closure.
And I want for you to have the same closure.
We both know that that kiss was a mistake.
I don't think so.
Look, it's not about the kiss, all right?
It-- it-- it's about the history behind the kiss.
It's about me knowing that I made the wrong choice
when I let you go the first time,
and knowing that I'm not gonna make that same mistake again.
No, you're not, because I am not gonna give you that chance.
- Hold on, just hear me out-- - LOLA: Dre,
that kiss was unfair to you, but this?
It is unfair to me.
Now, you broke my heart and I moved on a long time ago.
I am happy.
I have a husband
who I wouldn't trade for the world.
[scoffs]
Damn.
Um.
There's a lot I wanna say to you.
But, what's more important to me is that you're happy.
Even if it isn't with me.
But, I need you to know something.
That I love you, Lola.
And I'll always will.

Didn't think it was possible
to spite someone by giving them a promotion.
Bravo is an evil genius.
You can save it, Callan.
I know you're disappointed, Maggie,
but the fact that you showed up
is a testament to your character.
You're the consummate team player,
you don't get enough credit for that.
Oh, gosh. Thanks, Mark.
I really appreciate it.
- You can leave now. - Okay, that feels about right.
SARA: [yawns] I think I'm gonna take off soon.
- I'm exhausted. - I just got here.
This place was impossible to find.
There are no signs anywhere.
Yeah, it's a speakeasy, Teddy.
So, that's kinda the point.
Officers of the court sworn to uphold justice
hanging out in an illicit establishment?
Corruption permeates the entire system.
Why are you like this?
No, yes, but I have some clients
who have some nice suits that they would love to donate.
I have some clients who could use some new suits for work.
Yeah, let me know when you want me to pick 'em up.
Perfect, thank you.
[Sherri humming]
- Aw, how did we do? - Good.
- It's done. - I'm so proud of you.
How many of those have you had?
[giggling] Oh, I don't know.
You deserve it.
♪
- Thank you. - Cheers.
Cheers, cheers, cheers.
Wow, I have never seen anyone
look so miserable to be getting a pay rise.
I will give the money back in a heart beat
to never have to do another budget report.
C'mon, man. Just enjoy your moment.
One day, I will learn to embrace the suck,
but that day is not today.
- Excuse me. - Mmm.
Can I have everybody's attention please?
[multiple cheers]
I just wanna take a second to thank you guys
for coming out to celebrate Mark on a work night.
MARK: Listen, I'll make a deal with everybody:
if you skip the awkward toasts, the next round is on me.
- [cheering] - MAN: Cheers to that!
MARK: Okay, that's right.
All right, thank you.
[party din]
[Ness sighs]
I'm not interrupting anything, am I?
Not at all.
Congratulations on your trial today.
- We lost. - You can't win 'em all, Ness.
And you won't, but what's important
is you planted your flag today.
Yeah, I don't do war or victory.
- Girl! - [lips popping]
Take a compliment.
Look, I would be worried if you did.
But that-- that fight and spirit,
that refusal to settle,
that's what's gonna make you an excellent lawyer.
I love seeing how much you've grown.
You gonna start taking it easy on me?
I feel like you just enjoyed overruling my objections
a little too much.
Just absolutely refused to let me flourish.
And I will continue to do so.
You keep it up and I will report you to the bar.
Oh, well that's my cue to report to the bar
- and get another drink. - [laughs]

Vic? What the hell?
What the hell happened to you?
[Vic grunting softly]
Starting a business, it takes a lot, Captain.
How does that story end with you
getting the shit kicked out of you?
I needed to borrow some money.
Okay, I-- I needed to borrow a lot of money.
Well, I know you didn't go to B of A,
so who'd you get the money from?
The Karolinkovs.
The Russian crime family?
An entire generation of those men is serving hard time.
Vic, if they knew you were my dad,
you would be a dead man.
They already know.
I'm only alive because a corpse is a bad business investment.
Dead people don't pay up. [coughs]
Why did you bring this to my doorstep?
They want you to throw an upcoming case,
but it's not that simple.
'Cause if you help them just once,
you'd be indebted to them forever.
So please, just promise me...
you won't get involved.
No matter what happens to me.
