So you lost.
It happens.
I'm not ready for a pep talk.
Well, that's too bad, because you're gonna get one.
You lost, and there's no shame in losing
if you gave it everything you had.
Did you?
Did you give it everything you had?
Did you put your whole heart and mind into it?
Were you fierce? Were you loyal?
Were you passionate?
Decent and fair?
Did you live up to your own moral code,

Then that's all you can do.
You fought, and this time, you lost.
And you'll probably lose again sometime.

Sometimes, we all lose.

What do you think you're gonna do in 32 hours?
I once drove across Arizona by myself
with Nate and Cassidy in the car.
Cassidy wouldn't stop crying no matter what I did,
so I just turned up the radio really loud and I hit the gas.
My tires were bald, and the next thing I know,
I got a blown tire and I'm careening
across a four-lane highway.
I end up sideways in a ditch,
and I have to climb out of the car to get the kids out.
The good news was that Cassidy stopped crying.
I had on four-inch heels and no change of shoes.
It was in the middle of nowhere,
and there were no cars on the road.
So, I took off my shoes, I took Nate by the hand,
put Cassidy on my hip,
and I walk barefoot through the desert for six miles.
I got to the town just in time for the townhall meeting
that I was supposed to be at.
This very nice lady -- she gave me some slippers
to soak up the blood on the bottom of my feet,
and she fed my kids lunch,
and then I gave the speech of my life,
and I convinced that town to spend the money
to change the pipes and clean up that water supply
before they became a cancer cluster.
So...the baby's crying, the tire's blown,
the shoes are uncomfortable,
but I swear on the grave of the grandmother
who taught me how to fight
that you would be a fool to count me out now.

It's just been a long week and -- and I'm very tired,
and, uh, the scientific terms,
they're -- they're very complicated for me.
Uh, but, Dr. Flynn, could you explain to us,
uh, fully, the condition known as hydrops fetalis?
-Yes. -But please spell it out, alright?

I-I didn't know how to wake you up politely,
and this makes no sense.
Also, there's coffee in the fridge.
It's iced, but --
What makes no sense?
This is evidence of a human trial.
On the Stonemore valve? Yes.
All this time, we've been thinking that
there were no human trials,
but they've been running a study for the last three years.
They started the study
well after the valve went on the market,
and that makes no sense,
but what makes even less sense
is that the hearts are healthy.
Not after the study.
The hearts are healthy before the study.
The study group -- the vast majority of them
show no signs of heart disease,
no need of a valve replacement,
and apparently, they all have the same address,
which is a P.O. Box in upstate New York,
and it just -- it just makes no sense.
Oh, my God. It does make sense.
It -- I-It makes sense. I know exactly what they're doing.
Karsten practically told us what they were doing.
-He did? -I don't get it.

Yes. And I gotta believe that there's a reason,
that there is a...

I'm buying time. Mm. Ah.
Annie has some evidence coming.
Maybe it's the chemist. Maybe it's proof of his work.
I don't know, but this judge won't let me
delay this trial any further,
and I need what Annie's got before I can rest my case,
so I'm buying time.
But believe me, it's hurting me as much as it's hurting you.

Pull the valve off the market and we'll all go home.
Why would I do that? This jury hates you right now.
Literally, they hate your guts.
Well, because Annie's on her way and she has the chemist.
Cruz, you don't bluff for a reason,

That's a compliment.

Your Honor, this is my client advocate,
Ms. Annie Flynn Ray Bello,

has been testing their valves on healthy prisoners

Look, Karsten Vokelberg is manic on his best days
and deranged on his worst.
He was obsessed with the idea that the valve was causing harm,
but he had no hard evidence.
If he ran some sort of illegal trial, that is on him.
Yeah, he knew -you were gonna say that. -Oh.
He also knew that you would destroy
any trace of any conversations you had with him,
so he kept copious records.
E-mails, voicemails,
communication with you or anyone in your company.
He kept it all.
I approved a limited trial to put his mind at ease, okay?
I was told that it was only gonna involve prisoners
that could potentially benefit from the valve
and only on a voluntary basis.
Ever the altruist.
Dozens of prisoners with healthy hearts
were implanted with the Stonemore valve
in exchange for recommendation of early release.
You sit on the board of that private prison, Mark.
Doesn't look so good for you.
$600 million, plus you pay for every plaintiff
to have their heart valve removed
and all their follow-up medical care in perpetuity.
Plus, you remove that God forsaken torture device
that you call a heart valve off the market permanently.
$600 million.
I need a moment to confer with my client.
Confer all you want, but every minute that you take,
my number goes up,
because the alternative is
we're gonna go back into that courtroom,
I'm gonna put Annie on the stand,

what a murderous scumbag your client is.
