If Mr. La Cosse wasn't a suspect,
why did you bring him in for an interrogation?
[detective] It was not an interrogation.
We had no reason to believe he was the killer at first.
Julian, he's not a criminal. He's more like an IT guy.
You know, he... he won't survive in there.
Three of us worked together.
Gloria, uh, me, and Trina.
We would cover for each other.
So you're saying De Marco put Gloria up to ratting out Hector Moya?
More than that, he gave her a gun to plant in Moya's room
to make sure he'd go away for good.
Our investigation has uncovered 33 new people
who may be relevant to our case.
[Forsythe] My own investigator is on this list.
I have nothing whatsoever to do with your case.
Then you have nothing to worry about.
Each witness gives us the foundation to get to the next one.
Val will get us Sly Jr.
Sly Jr. will get us Trina.
Hopefully, that can get us to De Marco.
Were you ever detained by a DEA agent named James De Marco?
Doesn't ring a bell.
Didn't you tell me prior to your testimony today
that Gloria Dayton was a confidential informant
who worked for Agent James De Marco in the DEA?
I told you a lot of things 'cause you were paying my rent.
[Julian] You said you were going with an alternate suspect,
not some conspiracy theory.
I'm on trial for my life here.
Who is Peter Sterghos?
That's a name I came up with when trying to connect Neil Bishop to Agent De Marco.
I'm setting a trap.
Sterghos is the bait.
Bishop and De Marco showed up at Sterghos's house.
And between the two of them,
they're breaking into the home of a potential defense witness.
Criminals with badges are the worst kind of all.
If you go for him, you better not miss.
[pensive music playing]
[music fades]
[door opens]
[Lorna] You're here early.
So are you.
I couldn't sleep.
I was up all night thinking about my argument
for the amended witness list, and I am ready.
A little too ready, huh? How much coffee did you have?
Just a Vietnamese drip.
And a cold brew.
And this is a chai latte, which means it doesn't count.
And I also got you breakfast burritos.
You have to hurry because Batman and Robin in there are starting to drool.
I'm good. Everything we need today is in that box.
Just do me a favor. Double-check everything.
I always do.
Am I late or something?
- No. - No.
Gustavo did his best.
Well, let's hope Julian hasn't shrunk another size.
Have you decided how you're gonna use the surveillance video?
Nah, not yet. It's a time bomb.
Can't use it at all
unless I get the judge to reverse herself and allow De Marco to testify.
You really think Judge Turner is gonna give us De Marco
after the Trina fiasco?
That's what today's witnesses are for.
If they don't work, then we have to try and rehab Trina.
De Marco must have threatened her to lie on the stand or something.
Maybe we can get her on our side.
[Lorna scoffs]
Good luck with that.
Cisco, just find Trina.
Maybe if we offer her some protection, she'll tell you what happened.
I'll make it happen.
We have a little less than an hour before court.
Just come and get me when it's time to go.
Yep.
- Knock 'em dead, babe. - Mmm.
- [door closes] - [phone ringing]
[footsteps running]
[ringing continues]
Haller and Associates.
Wait, what?
No, one of the interns was supposed to send it.
Never mind. I'll just send it myself.
I love mailing things. Sorry.
Oh, balls!
[Lorna mutters angrily]
Bullshit. [sighs]
You okay?
[exhales]
I have been so overwhelmed by being second chair
that I've dropped the ball on everything else.
I have past-due invoices up the hoo-ha!
And I have to be in the judge's chambers in 51 minutes.
After I drop you guys at the courthouse,
I have to leave Julian's suit with the bailiff.
Then I can come back and work on those invoices.
Are you serious?
- Yeah. - Oh my God, Izzy.
Thank you so much. Can you start with the landlord before we get evicted?
I mean it, we're, like, three days away from finding our furniture on the curb.
I will walk that check over myself.
[sighs] I owe you big-time.
Don't sweat it. I got you.
And L... you're gonna kill it.
[sighs] God, I really hope so.
- Know what I really need? - Hmm?
More caffeine.
Oh! Okay.
[phone vibrates]
[suspenseful music playing]
[Mickey] Remember, the key witness is Bishop.
We gotta get him in.
The others are just distractions.
Always sit on the left side of the judge.
It's like a Jedi mind trick, you know? Less confrontation.
Mickey, I taught you that Jedi mind trick. I read about it in Parade magazine.
- You did? - Yes!
Hmm. Thought it was Legal. Must be losing it.
Oh, how's he doing in the assisted living community?
Oh, well, he texted me this morning, begging for Roscoe's Chicken 'N Waffles.
How do you think he's doing?
[Lorna] Ugh, I can't stand that guy. He's so smug.
Ah, don't let him get under your skin.
Haller.
Yep. I hate him.
Good morning, counselors. We have a full day, so let's get to it.
Mr. Forsythe, I assume you had a chance to study the defense's amended witness list?
Yes, Your Honor, but calling it an amended witness list is a misnomer.
Thirty-three new names is not amending.
This is a completely new list and completely unreasonable.
[Mickey] If I may interrupt, Your Honor,
we are willing to offer a compromise
that I believe will make Mr. Forsythe happy.
Your Honor, the defense has eliminated a number of names on this witness list.
You've crossed out all but three names.
How is it that 48 hours ago, you had 30 names crucial to your defense,
and now you only need
Sylvester Funaro Sr., Peter Sterghos, and Neil Bishop?
We actually need four, Your Honor, but you ruled against James De Marco,
so we had to streamline our defense.
Your Honor, the People still take issue with these three names.
Sylvester Funaro Sr. is a disbarred lawyer
with no connection to the case,
and anything he could contribute would be merely hearsay.
Well--
Mr. Funaro will testify about his relationship with Hector Moya,
which has given him unique insight into the victim
and the motive for her murder.
As I said, hearsay.
I heard you the first time, Mr. Forsythe. Do you have any other objections?
Yes, Your Honor. The People object to the inclusion of Peter Sterghos.
We investigated this individual
and found no connection at all between him and the case.
Your Honor, the defense intends to present an alternate theory
as to the murder of Gloria Dayton.
We believe Mr. Sterghos may be able to provide testimony
that links the Dayton murder to a double homicide
that occurred by his home ten years ago.
Ten years ago?
You've gotta be kidding!
Your Honor, the People would strenuously urge the court
not to allow this fishing expedition.
It is far from a fishing expedition,
as will be made abundantly clear when Mr. Sterghos is able to testify.
- Anything else, Mr. Forsythe? - [Forsythe] Yes, Your Honor.
Again, my own investigator, Neil Bishop, is on this list.
He's not a witness to the crime.
This is nothing but a blatant defense ploy to learn the prosecution's strategy.
Your Honor, with all due respect to Mr. Forsythe, that's absurd.
The prosecution has finished their case in chief,
so we already know their strategy.
Even so, there's no relevant testimony Mr. Bishop can provide.
[Lorna] Defense is allowed to vigorously question
how the prosecution gathers and analyzes evidence,
including witness statements.
There is no precedent that would preclude us
from calling their investigator to do just that.
Furthermore, Your Honor, appellate courts have repeatedly held
that defense attorneys are entitled to wide latitude
in the presentation of their case and that efforts to thwart counsel
from asking pertinent questions or presenting alternate theories
are perilous and subject to reversal.
I have relevant case law if the court wants to see it.
That won't be necessary, Miss Crane. The court is ready to rule.
I am gonna sustain Mr. Forsythe's objections
to Sylvester Funaro and Peter Sterghos,
unless the defense wishes
to make a renewed argument for their inclusion?
However, I'll overrule the objection as to the calling of Neil Bishop.
As the defense has pointed out, they are entitled to ask questions
about the People's process in bringing this case.
- Understood, Your Honor. Thank you. - [judge] Good. Anything else?
No, Your Honor.
[judge] Very well. You are excused. I will see you in court.
[theme music playing]
- [buzzer sounds] - [door opens]
Here. I had it taken in another couple inches.
Should fit better now.
Thank you.
Did you get any sleep last night?
[Julian sighs]
Look, Julian, I know Trina was a setback, but I promise you the plan is working.
We have a new piece of evidence against De Marco, and it's big.
Just working on how to use it, all right?
[Julian] Mm-hmm.
Here.
First thing my father ever taught me was,
"A well-tied tie is the first serious step in life."
Oscar Wilde.
"Generosity is the essence of friendship."
Oh. Also, Mr. Wilde?
He's one of my favorites.
Yeah, my dad wasn't really in the picture.
And, apparently, he was a huge asshole, so I guess I didn't miss much.
Except for the tie thing.
Ah. Better now.
Yeah.
I look like shit, don't I?
No, I see it in David's eyes.
He looks at me like I'm a walking dead man.
Well, you lost a lot of weight, Julian. He's just worried about you.
Hey, this suit fits better. You know, you look sharp.
Hey, I've been wondering.
Would it help if I testified?
No, no. It's...
it's never a good idea to put your client on the stand, Julian,
especially not now.
The prosecution will use every detail about what you do for a living,
and the jury is not gonna respond well.
[sighs]
I just wish there was more I could do.
And not just for me.
I mean, I have been replaying that night in my head over and over again.
Maybe if we hadn't gotten in that fight,
if I could've talked her down or stayed with her a little longer,
maybe she'd still be alive?
[sighs] Julian, look.
Gloria got mixed up with the wrong people, all right?
There was no way for either of us to save her.
The way we help her now is to win, all right?
Trina!
[suspenseful music playing]
Trina, are you there?
Trina, are you here?
[suspenseful music continues]
Mickey Haller sent me.
[phone dialing]
[phone line ringing]
[Mickey] Cisco?
She's gone.
Door's unlocked. Place is a mess.
Either she skipped out in a hurry, or somebody paid her a visit.
De Marco scared her even more than the cartel.
Well, if he did get to her, nothing we can do now.
No, I don't think so. Why would De Marco hurt her now?
She did what he wanted.
No, Trina's in over her head. She's gone underground somewhere.
Where?
[Mickey] There might be one other place you could look.
[music fades]
Cat, what happened?
I tore my ACL last night. [chuckles sadly]
- Ah shit. - [Cat] Ah, I'm fine.
They gave me something for the pain, but I have to get surgery.
I'm out for the rest of production. Maybe longer.
I'm so sorry, love.
We only have three episodes left, but the producers need a replacement ASAP.
That's why I called.
I recommended you.
That's... Wow. Uh...
Thank you, but you know I've been out of the game for a while.
Well, now you can jump back in.
Look, I don't trust anyone else with this. You'd kill it, Iz.
Uh, I don't know what to say.
I showed them your work. They wanna meet you.
They're holding interviews tomorrow.
Don't worry. The job is yours if you want it.
The interview's just a formality.
But heads up, the studio and the network will be there.
[emotional music playing]
What time tomorrow?
[Mickey] Defense G, Your Honor.
These are Gloria Dayton's cell phone records,
which were provided by the prosecution in discovery.
No objection, Your Honor.
[judge] So entered.
[Mickey] Detective Whitten, have you seen these records before?
[Whitten] Yes, I have. I'm the one who obtained them.
You'll see there's some writing on the top of the first page.
- Is that your handwriting? - [Whitten] Yes, it is.
[Mickey] Can you read what it says, please?
August 24th.
And why did you write that date?
That's when I received the records from the phone company.
August 24th.
That was 14 days after Gloria Dayton was murdered.
By that time, Julian La Cosse had already been arrested, correct?
Yes, that's right.
So what good were these phone records, then?
The investigation doesn't just stop after the arrest.
I pursued all avenues of inquiry.
I see. And were any of these calls of interest in your investigation?
[Whitten] Yes.
The call from your client, Julian La Cosse,
on the night of the murder, for one.
[quietly] What the hell is he doing?
[Mickey] Detective, can you please turn to page nine of the phone records?
Do you see the highlighted number there? The one ending in 6700?
Yes, area code 213-632-6700.
And when did Miss Dayton dial that number? Date and time?
August 3rd, 6:47 p.m.
August 3rd. One week before she was murdered.
Detective Whitten, showing you
what has previously been marked as Defense Exhibit A.
[Forsythe] Objection.
What connection can this picture have to these phone records?
Your Honor, this is a previously admitted exhibit.
I'm just about to establish the connection.
The objection is overruled.
Now, Detective, we've established this picture was taken
when a subpoena was served on Gloria Dayton
in connection with Hector Moya's habeas motion.
Will you please read the time and the date on this photo?
6:06 p.m., August 3rd.
[Mickey] And the number we identified on Miss Dayton's phone records.
- When did she make that call again? - 6:47 p.m.
So, to be clear,
Gloria Dayton received this subpoena on the evening of August 3rd.
And 41 minutes later, she made that call, correct?
Um...
Yes, but--
Did you ever try to verify the phone number?
- I don't recall. - You don't recall?
- Don't worry. Do you have your cell phone? - Objection.
On what grounds?
[Forsythe] Badgering. Inflammatory. Irrelevant.
Whatever stunt that counsel is about to pull, it's nothing but grandstanding.
Grandstanding?
Your Honor, the jury deserves to know who Miss Dayton called
after receiving that subpoena.
Calling that number now is the best way to know.
The objection is overruled. You may proceed, Mr. Haller.
Thank you, Your Honor. You know what?
We'll use my phone instead.
Detective, would you mind dialing the number?
[keypad beeping]
[phone line ringing over speaker]
[ringing continues]
[secretary] Drug Enforcement Administration, Los Angeles.
- How may I direct your call? - [shocked chatter]
[secretary] Hello? May I help you? Hello?
- [chatter continues] - Sorry, wrong number.
[judge] Order!
So, Detective, would you agree
that just after Miss Dayton was served with that subpoena,
she apparently called the DEA on her cell phone?
Uh, it's impossible to know if she made that call.
Someone else could have used her phone.
Did you ever inquire whether Miss Dayton had some connection with the DEA,
such as being an informant?
No.
Look, I... I didn't know anything about the subpoena at that time.
Secondly, if someone were an informant,
they wouldn't call the main number of the DEA.
I had no reason to be suspicious of this one phone call.
Okay. Hold on. I'm sorry, Detective. It's just I'm a little confused.
Before you said that you didn't remember if you looked into this call or not.
Are you now saying that you were aware of the call,
just not suspicious of it?
- No. You see, you're twisting what I said. - Let me rephrase.
Did you or did you not know that the victim placed a call to the DEA
one week before she was murdered? Yes or no.
No.
Detective, you just testified
that you were not aware
that Gloria Dayton had been subpoenaed for the Hector Moya habeas motion.
Do you recall when you found that out?
A few months ago, once defense provided their discovery material.
What did you do with that information?
I checked it out, as I do with all information that comes in.
And what did you conclude?
That it had no bearing on this case. It was coincidental.
Coincidental?
But, Detective, we just learned that Gloria Dayton called the DEA
right after she was served a subpoena in that case.
That doesn't sound very coincidental.
Objection. Counsel is testifying?
Sustained. Ask a question, Mr. Haller.
Detective, if you knew that a week before she was murdered,
Gloria Dayton received a subpoena and then quickly called the DEA,
would you have been interested to find out why?
Objection. Speculation.
[judge] Sustained.
No further questions, Your Honor.
[judge] Very well. We will take a short recess.
Detective Whitten, you may step down,
and the jurors will remember their admonition.
[quiet chatter]
Your Honor, may counsel approach the bench?
You may.
[background chatter continues]
[mouths silently]
[clears throat]
Judge Turner, given what we just heard,
we respectfully ask that you reconsider allowing Agent James De Marco to testify.
This puts the relevance of his testimony in a whole new light.
Your Honor, this is all innuendo.
This dog won't hunt, and defense counsel knows it.
He's trying to kick up dirt.
[Lorna] It is not kicking up dirt.
It is precisely the kind of third-party culpability theory
that appellate courts have consistently allowed
and consistently reversed when not allowed.
[suspenseful music playing]
Congratulations, Mr. Haller. I will allow Agent De Marco to testify.
But in terms of this testimony, I'm keeping you on a very short leash.
- Relevant questions only. - [Mickey] Thank you, Your Honor.
[music continues]
What happened?
The judge is allowing Agent James De Marco to testify.
That's good, right?
[Mickey] That's very good.
Now, all we have to do is get him to show up.
Now, tell Cisco to camp outside the federal building if he has to.
Just make sure De Marco gets that subpoena.
Trust me, this is really good news.
[phone bleeps]
[suspenseful music continues]
[music fades]
[dog barks in distance]
[lock clicks]
Kendall Roberts?
Who are you?
[Cisco] Mickey Haller sent me
to see if you'd heard from an old friend, Trina Rafferty.
We're a little worried about her.
What makes you think I would know where she is?
Mickey said you used to cover for each other back in the day.
Thought she might have reached out.
Like I told him before, that was a long time ago,
and he promised to keep me out of this, okay?
So if you don't mind?
Miss Roberts, if you... do hear from Trina,
please let her know we're here to help.
She could be in a dangerous situation. She doesn't have to face it alone.
[sighs]
[suspenseful music playing]
[door opens]
[Trina] You wanna talk?
[music fades]
Let's talk.
[atmospheric music playing]
[music fades]
[line ringing]
[Izzy] Hey, Lorna.
Izzy, did you finish these invoices?
Thank you so much.
I could tell you needed the help.
[Lorna] I was gonna come back here to do it with you.
Did you take a lunch break today?
It's no problem, Lorna. Really.
Is everything okay?
Yeah, totally. I just...
I need tomorrow off. Is that cool?
Well, of course. But, Izzy, are you sure you're okay?
You know you can tell me anything.
I know.
Just need to figure out some personal stuff. That's all.
I'll talk to you later, all right?
Yeah.

Don't worry. I can do all three jobs.
It's not like being your second chair and your office manager
and driving you to court is stressful or anything.
Yeah, Lorna, I can drive myself. It's no problem.
I got up one hour early and skipped my red clay scrub,
all so I can drive all the way up here on time.
So get in the damn car, Haller!
Okay. Jesus.
[quirky music playing]
[horn blares]
[Lorna, in Spanish] Hurry up!
[Mickey groans]
How does Cisco ride in this thing?
[Lorna] Just put your seat back!
- [Mickey] How? - [Lorna] Find the thing!
- [seat clicks] - [Mickey sighs]
[both sigh]
[motorbike engines rev]
[Mickey] The defense calls Victor Hensley.
- [quietly] Who is this guy? - [whispers] Our Trojan horse.
[Mickey] Mr. Hensley, tell the jury what you do for a living.
I'm the general manager of the Roosevelt Hotel in Los Angeles.
[Mickey] As the manager, you have access to all of the hotel's records, correct?
- [Hensley] Yes, I do. - [Mickey] Good.
Now, Mr. Hensley, as you may know, my client, Julian La Cosse,
ran a website for escorts.
According to that website, on the night of August 10th,
a man named Daniel Price
booked an appointment with the victim, Gloria Dayton,
in room 837 of your hotel.
[Hensley] Yes, I'm aware.
We've also learned that my client called that room
at 4:40 p.m. on August 10th to verify the appointment.
He spoke to a man who claimed to be Daniel Price.
Can you confirm if a Daniel Price was staying in that room at that time?
- According to our records, there was not. - No?
[Hensley] Not by 4:40 p.m.
A married couple, Daniel and Laura Price, did stay in that room the previous night,
but they checked out at 4:15.
- [Mickey] There was no one in that room? - [Hensley] I couldn't say for sure.
All I can tell you is there was no guest registered
in that room at that time.
It was a late checkout,
so the room was un-booked for the rest of the night.
Mr. Hensley, is it possible that someone else entered that room
to receive that call?
Someone claiming to be Daniel Price?
[Hensley] Anything's possible,
but the doors are electronically locked, so they'd need some way to get in.
Okay, well, let's... Let's change gears for a second.
Mr. Hensley, once you discovered
that Gloria Dayton was in your hotel prior to her murder,
did you conduct an investigation?
Yes. Once we became aware that the hotel played a tangential role
in the situation, we, of course, looked into it.
I, myself, headed up the investigation.
And were you able to establish a timeline of events on the night of August 10th?
Yes. Miss Dayton entered the hotel at 9:41 p.m.
She proceeded to take the elevator up to the 8th floor,
presumably to go to room 837.
Okay. And what happened next?
Miss Dayton returned to the lobby a few minutes later
before exiting the hotel at 9:50 p.m.
Well, those times are very specific. How do you know all of this?
[Hensley] From our security footage.
Security footage?
Yes.
The hotel has a very extensive security system,
with cameras taking time-stamped footage in all the public areas and the elevators.
Once we looked at the footage, it was simple to establish a timeline.
And did you bring this footage with you today?
Yes. I have several copies of it.
Did anyone from the prosecution ever collect this footage?
[Hensley] Uh, yes. A Mr. Neil Bishop from the district attorney's office.
He retrieved all of it about two months ago.
Two months ago?
Your Honor, may we approach?
Let me guess, Mr. Haller.
You were not made aware of this footage during discovery?
I was not. According to this witness,
Mr. Forsythe has had this footage for over two months.
No. This is the first I'm hearing of this footage.
Your own investigator took possession of it.
Your Honor, all parties agree that the victim visited this hotel
in the hours before her death. That's not in dispute.
This video footage, as detailed by the witness, is irrelevant.
Your Honor, how can we establish if it's relevant without seeing the footage?
How much time do you need?
- An hour should be fine. - Very well.
We will take a one-hour recess, during which I'll also review the footage.
Mr. Forsythe, I suggest you do the same.
[Forsythe] Thank you.
[hushed chatter]
What just happened?
[whispers] Trapdoor opened.
The Trojan horse.
We needed a way to bring the security footage into evidence
without anyone knowing we've had it all along.
- We had it all along? - Sh!
[phone vibrates]
[Lorna] We don't need to review that footage for an hour, do we?
No, but we have to look like we are.
Take this to the room with your laptop.
- Wait, me? Why? Where are you going? - I'll be there as soon as I can.
You better be getting me a latte.
Hey, Izzy.
Is something wrong?
[Izzy sighs]
I have to admit something.
- What? - I took a job interview.
Oh.
It wasn't with Tony Walsh, was it?
Trust me, that guy is a pain in the ass.
Cat tore her ACL. They need someone to replace her on the show.
As a choreographer?
Oh, Izzy, that's great. [chuckles]
I mean, not her knee, but it's a great opportunity for you.
Yeah.
It is.
Dancing is... all I ever dreamed of doing.
At the same time, I love working for you.
Feel I'm making a difference, you know? I'm helping people.
Like you helped me.
I just...
Look, Izzy.
You're family to me, all right? And family supports each other.
I would hate to lose you,
but I also know something about letting your heart be your guide.
And... if dancing is what you really want, then you have to see it through.
See, that's just the thing.
Seeing Cat hurt and loaded up on pain meds...
I don't know.
It brought me back to a place I'm not sure I wanna go.
All right. So what does your heart tell you?
Look, you're my family too.
You, Lorna, Cisco.
I wanna fully commit, but I'm not a lawyer,
and I can't drive you around forever.
Well, then, uh, you might be in luck
because a new office manager position opened up.
You might be the perfect candidate.
[poignant music playing]
I assume this promotion would come with a raise?
[chuckles] Oh boy! Here we go.
And vacation days I can use to teach classes here and there.
All right. We'll talk about it.
I'm sure we can work something out. So we have a deal?
[Mickey chuckles]
So you said job interview. Did they offer the job or what?
Come on, Mickey. You know they did.
[Mickey] Oh, that's how it is, huh? Okay.
[both laugh]
[Mickey] Mr. Hensley, would you mind tracking Miss Dayton's movements for us
while we play the footage?
Certainly.
[video plays without audio]
[suspenseful music playing]
[Hensley] That's Miss Dayton entering the hotel.
She crosses to the elevator, pushes the button to go up.
We have no cameras on the guest floors for privacy reasons,
but this is roughly five minutes later.
Miss Dayton returned to the lobby and headed straight for the front desk.
[Mickey] Mr. Hensley, in this image,
can you point out members of your staff that are visible on camera?
Well, the front desk team, of course,
and this man, Charles, he's a member of our security team.
Anyone else you can identify?
Not that I can see, no.
[Mickey hesitates]
What about this man here, wearing a hat?
[Hensley] We can't see his face.
[Mickey] Mr. Hensley, it seems that we can never see this man's face,
but from his outfit and his actions, would you say this man works at the hotel?
No. All of our employees are in uniform at all times.
[Mickey] Do you have undercover security officers who pose as guests?
No, we do not.
Our security is post-oriented, and they all wear blazers with name tags.
[Mickey] I see. So if this man is not a hotel employee,
what do you think he's doing in this footage?
Objection. Calls for speculation.
Mr. Hensley has been the manager of the Roosevelt
for over 13 years.
He worked reception and security for over ten years before that.
He knows that lobby better than anyone.
I think he's more than qualified to provide his professional judgment
about what he sees in this video.
I'll allow it. Answer the question, please, Mr. Hensley.
In my professional judgment, I think this man was following her.
[shocked chatter]
[Hensley] He was waiting for her before she arrived.
He knew where the cameras were and how to obscure his face.
And then, when she comes back down, he follows her out.
You can tell when she makes the sudden turn to go to the front desk,
that move catches him off guard, and he has to adjust.
He's quite the mystery man.
So you're telling us
that Miss Dayton arrived at your hotel
where this mystery man was waiting for her,
who then proceeded to follow her out, and just a few hours later, she was dead?
Objection. Outside the witness's scope of knowledge.
Sustained.
I have nothing further, Your Honor.
Your witness, Mr. Forsythe?
Just one question, Your Honor.
Mr. Hensley, putting your professional judgment aside,
the fact is you have no idea who this man is or what he's doing.
Isn't that correct?
Yes. Of course.
Thank you. Nothing further.
[judge] The witness may step down.
[music fades]
Oh, that landed. I saw it. Should I go get the MINI, or should we just walk?
No, let's walk. It'll be easier on my knees.
Yeah, you did. Did you even look at the footage?
Or did you throw it in a pile with the rest of your professional mistakes?
[Bishop] It wasn't pertinent.
Oh, it wasn't pertinent.
You know what would've been pertinent? To inform me so I could've prepared.
You shouldn't have let that asshole introduce it.
[Forsythe] The only thing that's on me is the appearance of malfeasance.
Look, I don't care what you think is pertinent or not pertinent.
Don't ever hold anything back from me.
He's sweating now.
I'm sorry, Bill.
Which one?
[gentle music playing]
Give me a minute to start putting this stuff away,
and then we can prep for the De Marco testimony.
- What are we eating? - Oh my God.
It completely slipped my mind.
The pizza place is gonna have to do. And I don't want to hear any complaints.
- Guess who didn't have their evening walk. - [Lorna gasps]
[Winston whimpers]
Why is it always the children who suffer?
[Winston whines]
Mickey, I am drowning here. I can't keep doing this by myself.
- Lorna, I-- - No, you listen to me.
We need help. And I don't mean interns. I mean actual help.
- Lorna, stop. - Anyone in the mood for Din Tai Fung?
See, your prayers have been answered. Meet our new office manager.
Izzy? [gasps] Oh my God! I'm so happy for you!
And also for me.
There are two motions on my desk. They need to be filed yesterday.
With us getting a raise we have all this money going out,
so we need to get that money back in.
Let's call those deadbeats and get them to pay up. Start billing.
As you suspected, I couldn't get in the same room as De Marco.
They sent an in-house attorney instead.
They accepted service on De Marco's behalf?
Yeah. But whether or not he shows up is anyone's guess.
What about Trina?
I offered to set her up in a Road Saints' hideout,
but she wants to stay with Kendall.
Bad news is she's not sticking her head out for us or Glory.
In fact, she will not testify again until De Marco is arrested.
Which means we have to get there some other way.
Well, there's one more thing that really bothers me.
Trina finally admitted
that De Marco pressured her to lie on the stand.
But get this.
He wasn't the only one.
I thought it might've been Bishop. I showed her a photo. Said it wasn't him.
She said this guy didn't say a word
and that he looked nothing like any other cop she'd seen.
So who is De Marco mixed up with?
There's a lot of money in drugs. It bends people.
De Marco is as bent as they come.
All the more reason we should prepare for his testimony
in case it actually happens.
I agree, but let's take a break first. Today, it was a good day.
Great day.
I agree.
To Izzy, who taught me that 24 hours
is enough to miss someone, like, deeply.
And, uh, to those we lost along the way.
[poignant music playing]
Cheers.
[all] Cheers.
