[00:01] | BERLUTI: Previously on “The Practice”… | |
[00:02] | We’ve decided to let you go. Go where? | |
[00:04] | YOUNG: Here’s a check | |
[00:05] | representing two weeks’ severance pay. | |
[00:07] | I’ve generated fees in excess of $6 million. | |
[00:10] | You’ve handed me a check for $15,000. | |
[00:12] | YOUNG: Alan Shore seemed to know this was coming. | |
[00:14] | Did you tell him? Yes. | |
[00:16] | YOUNG: Your employment here is terminated. | |
[00:18] | What’s with the red tie, soldier? | |
[00:20] | Red is soft. | |
[00:22] | Soft does not work around here, sailor. | |
[00:24] | That’s Denny Crane? | |
[00:26] | The Denny Crane? | |
[00:27] | BILLINGS: Don’t be fooled. | |
[00:28] | Once he’s in the courtroom, | |
[00:29] | he’s every bit the icon. | |
[00:30] | I’m a senior partner in my firm | |
[00:32] | the way you are in yours. | |
[00:33] | It’s not enough to insist on fidelity | |
[00:36] | or fair dealing. | |
[00:37] | A good leader has to practice it. | |
[00:39] | FOREPERSON: “Was the defendant’s termination | |
[00:41] | of the plaintiff wrongful?”, | |
[00:42] | we find in the affirmative. | |
[00:43] | We order the defendant to pay | |
[00:44] | the plaintiff $2.3 million. | |
[00:47] | SHORE: Denny, this is Tara Wilson. | |
[00:49] | We hire only the prettiest people in this firm. | |
[00:52] | Are you a pretty girl, soldier? | |
[00:54] | I am (clears throat) sir. | |
[00:55] | I like her. | |
[00:58] | (door opens) | |
[01:02] | Jimmy. | |
[01:03] | BERLUTI: Manny, what… | |
[01:05] | QUINN: Look at you in that suit. | |
[01:06] | Do you, like, own that? | |
[01:07] | (both laughs) | |
[01:09] | BERLUTI: I was just talking to your mother. | |
[01:10] | QUINN: I know this. | |
[01:11] | She told me, which is kind of what put the idea | |
[01:13] | in my brain that I should, uh, | |
[01:14] | maybe come see you. | |
[01:16] | I heard you got fatter, but you look good. | |
[01:18] | Well, thanks, um, | |
[01:19] | Ellenor Frutt, Eugene Young, | |
[01:21] | Manny Quinn, old friend. | |
[01:23] | FRUTT: Hi. | |
[01:25] | BERLUTI: What’s up? | |
[01:26] | Uh, can I talk in front of them? | |
[01:28] | Well, uh, yes, they’re lawyers. | |
[01:31] | Privilege applies to all of us. | |
[01:34] | I’ve had some drug problems as of late, | |
[01:36] | not using, | |
[01:38] | I swear, just selling. | |
[01:39] | I would never use. | |
[01:40] | Anyway, I got, uh, | |
[01:42] | I can talk, right? | |
[01:44] | Yeah. | |
[01:45] | I got myself in this situation, okay? | |
[01:47] | A few weeks ago, I got shot | |
[01:49] | right in the ass, | |
[01:50] | nothing serious. | |
[01:51] | You know me, I’m not a complainer. | |
[01:52] | Anyway, I had this dope deal coming up | |
[01:54] | that I was planning. | |
[01:56] | I didn’t tell anybody | |
[01:57] | except Gigi Coley, | |
[01:59] | my girlfriend, remember Gigi? | |
[02:01] | Of course. | |
[02:02] | How is she? | |
[02:02] | She got fatter, but she’s good. | |
[02:04] | Anyway, all of a sudden, | |
[02:06] | the Feds are busting down my door. | |
[02:08] | I got raided. | |
[02:10] | They seized my pot. | |
[02:10] | They arrested me. | |
[02:11] | They opened the wound in my ass all over again. | |
[02:14] | It was terrible. | |
[02:15] | It healed up good, | |
[02:16] | and I’m not suing for that or nothing. | |
[02:18] | But my point, | |
[02:20] | nobody could have known | |
[02:22] | about this drug deal, Jimmy. | |
[02:23] | I didn’t tell no one. | |
[02:25] | I think the FBI bugged me. | |
[02:27] | I’m positive. | |
[02:28] | Bugged you? How? | |
[02:31] | They inserted some device in my buttocks. | |
[02:34] | I know it sounds nuts, | |
[02:36] | but I think during the first surgery, | |
[02:38] | they inserted one of those small microchips, | |
[02:40] | then during the second procedure, | |
[02:42] | they took it out. | |
[02:43] | It’s the only way they could have known about the pot. | |
[02:45] | I mean, I didn’t talk about this deal | |
[02:46] | on the phone or nothing, | |
[02:48] | so I want to bring a motion to suppress. | |
[02:50] | I mean, this is beyond unconstitutional. | |
[02:52] | You can’t bug a man’s ass. | |
[02:55] | It isn’t right. | |
[02:58] | (music playing) | |
[03:38] | You must be joking. | |
[03:39] | I don’t joke. I don’t believe in humor. | |
[03:41] | Well, I don’t believe in guns, | |
[03:42] | and I do not shoot ducks. | |
[03:45] | Every new employee picks up a rifle. | |
[03:46] | It’s how I judge character. | |
[03:48] | MODRY: Denny… | |
[03:52] | a little problem, | |
[03:53] | the Finnertys are here, very upset. | |
[03:55] | Oh? | |
[03:56] | Who are they and why do I care? | |
[03:57] | They’re the wrongful-death case | |
[03:59] | you brought in here. | |
[04:00] | And they’re upset | |
[04:01] | because their trial starts tomorrow, | |
[04:02] | and you’ve been totally absent. | |
[04:04] | Did you explain to them | |
[04:05] | that I’m typically absent? | |
[04:06] | MODRY: I did, and they’re maintaining | |
[04:08] | it’s you they hired, | |
[04:09] | and they’re feeling defrauded. | |
[04:11] | All right. | |
[04:12] | Tell them I’ll be right in. | |
[04:13] | MODRY: Okay. | |
[04:14] | And to prepare me, | |
[04:16] | do you know what you plan to say? | |
[04:18] | No idea. | |
[04:19] | ROSE: Most paralegals request not to work with me. | |
[04:22] | Just so you know, I am totally fine | |
[04:24] | with being hated. Got it. | |
[04:26] | I’m actually not that difficult. | |
[04:27] | Don’t do anything to disappoint me, | |
[04:29] | and we’ll get along fine. | |
[04:30] | HEEP: So, I could… | |
[04:30] | ROSE: Sally, | |
[04:32] | if you dress like that, | |
[04:34] | people will get the right idea about you. | |
[04:35] | Please, go home and change. | |
[04:37] | You can’t keep talking to me like this. | |
[04:40] | Woman-on-woman can still be | |
[04:41] | sexual harassment. | |
[04:43] | ROSE: Wonderful. And if you look around, | |
[04:45] | you might find someone who cares. | |
[04:46] | In the meantime, | |
[04:47] | go home or wherever it was | |
[04:49] | you woke up this morning | |
[04:50] | and put on a different outfit. | |
[04:53] | CRANE: At ease. | |
[04:59] | Bill, Sarah, | |
[05:02] | good to see you. | |
[05:03] | BILL: Good to see us. | |
[05:04] | You know, we hired you 14 months ago. | |
[05:06] | We’ve been in here dozens of times | |
[05:08] | for meetings, depositions. | |
[05:09] | We have never seen you. | |
[05:11] | Our trial starts tomorrow. | |
[05:13] | We came specifically for you, | |
[05:15] | which we made clear. | |
[05:16] | Sheldon Modry specializes in wrongful death. | |
[05:20] | He’s uniquely qualified to handle this, | |
[05:21] | given the way your daughter so… | |
[05:26] | wrongfully died. | |
[05:29] | Do you even remember | |
[05:31] | how our daughter died? | |
[05:33] | Of course I do. | |
[05:35] | Such a shame. | |
[05:37] | So wrongful. | |
[05:40] | Tell me how my daughter died, | |
[05:42] | Mr. Crane. | |
[05:48] | Bill, Sarah, | |
[05:51] | Mary died… | |
[05:53] | when a store light fixture fell, | |
[05:55] | tragically, on her. | |
[05:58] | Are you going to be trying this case or not? | |
[06:01] | I am going to be trying this case. | |
[06:07] | I beg your pardon? | |
[06:09] | BERLUTI: He’s a friend, Eugene, | |
[06:10] | so I’d like to you know help. | |
[06:13] | You filed a motion to suppress? | |
[06:15] | BERLUTI: Yes, based on the exclusionary rule. | |
[06:18] | The client had a reasonable expectation of privacy, | |
[06:20] | which we feel was violated. | |
[06:22] | You’re planning to walk into a court of law | |
[06:25] | and argue that federal agents | |
[06:27] | installed a listening device | |
[06:28] | in your client’s buttocks? | |
[06:30] | I know it feels desperate. | |
[06:31] | YOUNG: Desperate? | |
[06:32] | Oh, it feels desperate? | |
[06:34] | BERLUTI: Eugene, if the evidence | |
[06:35] | doesn’t get suppressed, | |
[06:36] | he goes away. | |
[06:38] | This is one of my oldest friends. | |
[06:40] | I got to do this. | |
[06:43] | He says when he had a rigorous movement, | |
[06:46] | he could hear a little beeping sound. | |
[06:51] | MODRY: You can’t possibly try this case. | |
[06:53] | Why not? | |
[06:55] | You don’t know the facts. | |
[06:56] | You don’t know the law. | |
[06:57] | Well, lay it out in a memo, | |
[06:59] | one page, no more, double-spaced. | |
[07:01] | That’s far too complicated to– | |
[07:02] | One page, double-space, | |
[07:04] | off you go. | |
[07:04] | Denny… | |
[07:05] | CRANE: Edmond, are we on today? | |
[07:07] | EDMOND: Uh, no. I have an emergency. | |
[07:09] | Could I talk to you? | |
[07:11] | Of course. | |
[07:14] | (door opens) | |
[07:18] | (door closes) | |
[07:20] | It’s my son. | |
[07:21] | He’s been arrested. | |
[07:23] | Darryl? | |
[07:24] | What for? | |
[07:25] | Sexual assault, | |
[07:27] | date rape, | |
[07:28] | which he is innocent of. | |
[07:30] | I know you don’t do criminal work anymore. | |
[07:32] | I’ll take care of it. | |
[07:34] | He’s a wonderful young man, Denny, | |
[07:36] | and you know him. | |
[07:37] | He would– | |
[07:39] | Edmund… | |
[07:42] | I’ll take care of it. | |
[07:48] | MODRY: Denny is insisting on trying a case | |
[07:50] | that he knows nothing about, | |
[07:51] | tomorrow. | |
[07:52] | He settled a claim behind my back. | |
[07:55] | GORE: He lit my tie on fire | |
[07:57] | because it was red. | |
[07:58] | He referred me to a surgeon | |
[08:00] | to get my breasts done. MAN: That is inappropriate. | |
[08:02] | MAN: What are you gonna do about it? | |
[08:03] | I can’t work like this. | |
[08:04] | (indistinct chatter) | |
[08:05] | BILLINGS: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. | |
[08:07] | Let’s all take a breath. | |
[08:11] | Richard, as I understand it, | |
[08:12] | the case he settled behind your back | |
[08:14] | was for more money than you were prepared | |
[08:15] | to close on. | |
[08:17] | Mitchell, the tie smoked a little. | |
[08:20] | It did not go ablaze. | |
[08:22] | And Julie, | |
[08:23] | you’ve been complaining about your breasts | |
[08:25] | for three months. | |
[08:26] | MODRY: No, you seem to be the only one | |
[08:28] | who can handle this man, Matthew. | |
[08:30] | You need to somehow rein him in– | |
[08:32] | This is Alan Shore, Sheldon. | |
[08:33] | In addition to being a gifted attorney, | |
[08:35] | he’s an accomplished | |
[08:36] | Denny Crane wrangler. | |
[08:38] | He’ll join you at tomorrow’s trial. | |
[08:39] | What? | |
[08:40] | BILLINGS: Please, let’s all remember, | |
[08:42] | when dealing with Denny, | |
[08:44] | deep down, | |
[08:45] | beneath that amusing exterior, | |
[08:47] | his name comes first | |
[08:48] | on the letterhead. | |
[08:49] | (exhales slowly) | |
[08:50] | Hannah, I need you now, sweetheart. | |
[08:52] | MAN: That’s it?! | |
[08:53] | (all shouting indistinctly) | |
[08:56] | MAN: What you gonna do about it? | |
[08:57] | A son of a client just got arrested | |
[08:59] | for date rape. | |
[09:00] | Denny just asked me– Oh, no. | |
[09:02] | Big client, Hannah. You’re an ex-D. A. | |
[09:03] | You might be able to– I told you no more criminal– | |
[09:05] | Please, don’t make me beg. | |
[09:07] | Remember what happened the last time | |
[09:08] | I got on my knees? | |
[09:09] | Don’t flatter yourself. | |
[09:10] | You weren’t that great. | |
[09:11] | Well, I need you to be, Hannah, | |
[09:14] | like only you can. | |
[09:16] | Yes, and you’re not that charming, either. | |
[09:17] | I left the D. A.’s office to get away from– | |
[09:20] | Denny promised the client | |
[09:21] | we’d make it go away, | |
[09:24] | and I promise I’ll make it up to you. | |
[09:30] | Pretty please? | |
[09:32] | Hmm? | |
[09:34] | Date rape. | |
[09:36] | Mmm. | |
[09:38] | What do you mean I can’t take it? | |
[09:40] | Obviously, this is a very precarious time | |
[09:42] | for the firm. | |
[09:43] | Which is why I would think | |
[09:44] | we could use clients, even– | |
[09:46] | FRUTT: Not that client. | |
[09:48] | FRUTT: Manny is one of my oldest friends. | |
[09:50] | YOUNG: Jimmy, | |
[09:51] | the absurdity of this motion | |
[09:52] | would damage our credibility, | |
[09:54] | and that would hurt our other clients. | |
[09:56] | I want to take this case. | |
[09:58] | We’re voting two to one | |
[10:00] | to turn it down. | |
[10:02] | You know, I never come to you and ask– | |
[10:03] | FRUTT: We understand that, Jimmy, | |
[10:05] | and if it were anything but this, | |
[10:07] | we would probably say yes, | |
[10:10] | but this firm cannot go into court | |
[10:12] | and claim that the FBI | |
[10:14] | bugged the client’s ass. | |
[10:15] | We don’t know for sure they didn’t. | |
[10:17] | The stuff that’s going on these days– | |
[10:19] | YOUNG: Fine. | |
[10:21] | Get some evidence to support it, | |
[10:22] | we’ll reconsider, | |
[10:23] | but for now, | |
[10:25] | we’re not taking the case. | |
[10:42] | CRANE: I specifically asked | |
[10:43] | for a one-page memo, soldier. | |
[10:46] | You’ve given me a page and a half. | |
[10:48] | Well, I thought since it is double-spaced, | |
[10:50] | I won’t read it. | |
[10:52] | I like to read. | |
[10:53] | What are you doing here? | |
[10:55] | SHORE: Matthew thought my presence | |
[10:56] | could add prowess. | |
[10:57] | There’s no need for prowess | |
[10:59] | when I’m in the room, Denny Crane. | |
[11:02] | Oh, gentlemen, this is Alan Shore. | |
[11:04] | He’ll be joining us today, | |
[11:05] | and I believe you all know | |
[11:07] | Denny Crane. | |
[11:09] | CRANE: A woman is dead here. | |
[11:11] | $1.2 million isn’t gonna bring her back to life. | |
[11:16] | Do you have a figure that will bring her back? | |
[11:18] | $2.3 million. | |
[11:21] | (clears throat) | |
[11:24] | Mr. Crane… | |
[11:25] | the decedent was not a college graduate. | |
[11:28] | Her earning capacity is limited. | |
[11:29] | No pain and suffering, | |
[11:30] | no loss of consortium. | |
[11:31] | The jury verdict research on an instant death | |
[11:33] | with no dependents is $875,000 structured. | |
[11:35] | We’re offering $1.2 million up front, | |
[11:36] | it’s generous. | |
[11:38] | I don’t like fast little talkers. | |
[11:39] | They remind me of chipmunks. | |
[11:41] | Denny– | |
[11:42] | TALBOT: The fixture satisfied | |
[11:43] | all safety requirements. | |
[11:44] | It never should have fallen. | |
[11:46] | But it did, | |
[11:47] | on Mary Finnerty’s head, | |
[11:50] | killing her, | |
[11:52] | irreparably. | |
[11:54] | Now, listen, son, | |
[11:55] | your client, All Shop, | |
[11:58] | they have over 3,000 | |
[12:01] | stores nationwide, | |
[12:02] | that’s 57,000 lighting fixtures | |
[12:05] | just in the good, old U. S. of A. | |
[12:07] | What if they all fell down, man? | |
[12:10] | We’re not talking about one little accident | |
[12:12] | that killed Mary Finnerty’s head. | |
[12:16] | This could wipe out hundreds of thousands | |
[12:18] | of innocent people, | |
[12:23] | Denny Crane. | |
[12:32] | DARRYL: The sex was consensual. | |
[12:34] | I give you my word, Ms. Rose. | |
[12:36] | ROSE: Well, her word seems to be “Rape,” | |
[12:39] | and since there’s both torn clothing | |
[12:40] | and vaginal bruising– | |
[12:41] | She’s making it up. | |
[12:43] | Why would she do this? | |
[12:45] | Because rape trials are fun? | |
[12:46] | DARRYL: I dated this girl. | |
[12:47] | We had sex before, | |
[12:49] | consensual. | |
[12:50] | WILSON: But if you’d had sex before, | |
[12:52] | why would she now be saying | |
[12:53] | that she was raped? | |
[12:54] | Excuse me a second. | |
[13:00] | I realize that everyone is different, | |
[13:02] | but I don’t like my paralegals to talk. | |
[13:04] | I’m happy to receive your input later. | |
[13:08] | But I am so ready to give it to you now. | |
[13:14] | Obviously, for you to speak | |
[13:16] | to a junior partner like that, | |
[13:18] | you must be screwing a senior partner. | |
[13:26] | So Darryl, any ideas? | |
[13:29] | We have a woman here with bruises, | |
[13:30] | ripped clothing, | |
[13:32] | I’m looking for a little direction here. | |
[13:34] | Well, her father was very abusive to her | |
[13:37] | when she was younger. | |
[13:38] | He even sexually assaulted her. | |
[13:41] | And… | |
[13:43] | DARRYL: And I’m not a shrink, | |
[13:44] | but a buddy of mine is. | |
[13:46] | He said we could argue that | |
[13:49] | because of what her father did, | |
[13:51] | she psychologically– | |
[13:53] | I don’t know, gets turned on | |
[13:54] | by mistreatment and stuff, | |
[13:56] | which, personally, I think she does, | |
[13:57] | a little, | |
[13:59] | which is why, you know, | |
[13:59] | we were having rough sex, | |
[14:02] | and that would account for the bruises and stuff. | |
[14:06] | Also… | |
[14:07] | she’s African-American. | |
[14:11] | I’m sure the relevance of that is obvious, | |
[14:14] | but could you run it by me, anyway? | |
[14:17] | Well, a Boston jury is likely | |
[14:20] | to take my word over hers. | |
[14:23] | Plus, African-American women | |
[14:25] | like sex, you know… | |
[14:30] | rougher. | |
[14:31] | (music playing) | |
[14:38] | What do you mean you can’t take my case? | |
[14:40] | My firm, they voted against it. | |
[14:42] | I thought you were a partner. | |
[14:44] | BERLUTI: I am, but… | |
[14:46] | I was outvoted, Manny. | |
[14:47] | Jimmy, if I don’t suppress this evidence, | |
[14:50] | I’m looking at eight years. | |
[14:52] | I tried. | |
[14:54] | I don’t understand it. | |
[14:55] | It’s a criminal firm. | |
[14:57] | You’re a partner. | |
[14:57] | I’m a criminal. | |
[14:59] | And, besides, you’re my friend here. | |
[15:01] | I know, but– | |
[15:02] | QUINN: But nothing, Jimmy. | |
[15:04] | Do you remember when you passed the bar? | |
[15:06] | We threw that great big party. | |
[15:08] | And you gave this great speech | |
[15:09] | about what it meant, | |
[15:11] | how you were finally gonna be able | |
[15:12] | to help your friends. | |
[15:14] | Well, here I am, coming to you for help. | |
[15:16] | Now, what’s the deal? | |
[15:22] | (gunshot) | |
[15:23] | SHORE: We look ridiculous. | |
[15:24] | You must really love to shoot. | |
[15:27] | This is America. | |
[15:28] | Everybody loves to shoot. | |
[15:29] | Guns are what makes America great. | |
[15:32] | There are more guns in American households | |
[15:34] | than pet dogs. | |
[15:35] | SHORE: Listen, as soon as we can get | |
[15:36] | the guns to fetch, | |
[15:37] | we can lick this damn dog | |
[15:39] | problem completely. | |
[15:42] | (cocks) | |
[15:45] | CRANE: Osama! Pull! | |
[15:47] | (gunshot) | |
[15:49] | Saddam! Pull! | |
[15:50] | (gunshot) | |
[15:52] | Kerry! Pull! | |
[15:54] | (gunshot) | |
[15:55] | See? | |
[15:56] | The trick is, you got to w– | |
[15:57] | (gunshot) | |
[15:58] | CRANE: Oh. | |
[15:58] | Whoa, Nellie. | |
[16:01] | The trick is, you got to want to hit | |
[16:02] | the target. | |
[16:04] | Okay. | |
[16:06] | MAN: Pull! | |
[16:07] | (gunshot) | |
[16:09] | Mother! Pull! | |
[16:12] | (gunshot) | |
[16:14] | Did you say, “Mother”? | |
[16:16] | I only meant to scare her. | |
[16:17] | MAN: Pull! | |
[16:18] | (gunshot) | |
[16:24] | SHORE: Now that we’ve played guns together, | |
[16:26] | can I be candid, Denny? | |
[16:28] | I’ve had the opportunity | |
[16:30] | to observe you for a while | |
[16:31] | from up close and afar, | |
[16:33] | and I’ve consistently | |
[16:37] | noticed something. | |
[16:38] | Like what? | |
[16:40] | You’re not well. | |
[16:43] | People in your firm | |
[16:45] | aren’t gonna tell you that, | |
[16:46] | because they like you, | |
[16:49] | plus you wield a great deal of power, | |
[16:51] | but you have about as much business | |
[16:54] | being in that courtroom tomorrow | |
[16:56] | as you do holding a loaded shotgun. | |
[17:00] | Do you know who you’re talking to? | |
[17:02] | Look… | |
[17:04] | I offer this because, | |
[17:06] | “A,” I don’t care if I get fired, | |
[17:09] | and, “B,” someone very dear to me | |
[17:12] | died with Alzheimer’s. | |
[17:14] | And when I think I see symptoms, | |
[17:18] | even the possibility of symptoms… | |
[17:28] | The fact that you may have Alzheimer’s | |
[17:30] | does not entitle you to criticize me. | |
[17:35] | Denny… | |
[17:37] | these people, the Finnertys, | |
[17:40] | have waited 14 months for trial. | |
[17:43] | You– They want me. | |
[17:45] | SHORE: Because they think you’re prepared. | |
[17:47] | Who do you think you are, hmm? | |
[17:51] | I hire you, | |
[17:52] | you’re here a week, | |
[17:54] | now you’re trying to tell me what to do? | |
[17:56] | Nobody, nobody… | |
[17:59] | tells me what to do. | |
[18:09] | Dad… | |
[18:13] | you’re my father, | |
[18:14] | and you don’t even remember. | |
[18:20] | I’m not your father. | |
[18:22] | I had you for a second. | |
[18:24] | Don’t you laugh at me. | |
[18:31] | I’m healthy. | |
[18:32] | I’m the picture of health. | |
[18:36] | (glass thumps) | |
[18:43] | BERLUTI: When I went to law school, | |
[18:44] | it wasn’t to get rich or… | |
[18:49] | I had a lot of buddies who got in jams. | |
[18:51] | I became a lawyer | |
[18:53] | to help my friends. | |
[18:55] | It was that simple. | |
[18:57] | There was something about that that seemed | |
[18:59] | very glamorous to me, | |
[19:02] | and it still does. | |
[19:05] | Really? | |
[19:06] | BERLUTI: Get some space in the North End, | |
[19:09] | wake up every morning, | |
[19:10] | drop my laundry off | |
[19:11] | at the Fluff and Fold, | |
[19:12] | have coffee with Lenny and Sal | |
[19:14] | at Maury’s Doughnuts, | |
[19:15] | help Steve get the Denver boot off his pickup, | |
[19:18] | help Sylvia get a loan | |
[19:20] | even though she’s got no credit, | |
[19:22] | negotiate a better price | |
[19:24] | on a condo for my Aunt Mary, | |
[19:27] | help the people I really care about | |
[19:30] | to live better lives, you know. | |
[19:32] | Then close up early enough | |
[19:34] | to have supper with them. | |
[19:37] | That sounds like a life to me, | |
[19:40] | a rich one, even. | |
[19:49] | You have to do it. | |
[19:51] | Do what? | |
[19:52] | Hang a shingle on the North End, | |
[19:54] | help Aunt Mary with her credit, | |
[19:55] | help Lenny with… | |
[19:59] | you have to do it. | |
[20:02] | I can’t abandon the firm now | |
[20:04] | of all times. | |
[20:05] | STRINGER: Jimmy, the word on the street | |
[20:07] | is our firm is over. | |
[20:12] | I’ve been looking. | |
[20:16] | You have? | |
[20:17] | And get this, | |
[20:19] | one of my close friends | |
[20:20] | is a headhunter. | |
[20:23] | Eugene’s put his name out there. | |
[20:26] | What? | |
[20:27] | Eugene? | |
[20:28] | STRINGER: Three weeks ago, he interviewed | |
[20:29] | at Hollings and Gray. | |
[20:31] | That’s not even the point. | |
[20:34] | You have to go do this | |
[20:37] | because it’s what you want to do. | |
[20:42] | You have to do it. | |
[20:55] | ROSE: It’s not just going away, Matthew, | |
[20:57] | especially not quickly. | |
[20:58] | He raped her. | |
[20:59] | Not what I want to hear. | |
[21:01] | Look, get the new guy to do this. | |
[21:03] | He’s done criminal cases. The new guy… | |
[21:04] | is in court on Denny Crane control. | |
[21:07] | I told you when I came here | |
[21:08] | it was to get away from criminal law. | |
[21:12] | I have an official complaint to lodge, | |
[21:14] | and since it’s about her, | |
[21:15] | she might as well be present for it. | |
[21:17] | I fight my battles open. | |
[21:18] | You might want to opt for an adverb there, Sal, | |
[21:20] | “Openly” would support your predicate. | |
[21:22] | “Open” would describe your leg position at the bar. | |
[21:26] | HEEP: I want that on the record. | |
[21:27] | HALL: Ooh, the girls are fighting. | |
[21:29] | I’ve got a big one, Glenn. | |
[21:30] | Yeah, tell me something I don’t know. | |
[21:31] | Oh, please. | |
[21:33] | Hannah. | |
[21:34] | Glenn. | |
[21:35] | Date rape, we need to find | |
[21:37] | some credibility issues quickly. | |
[21:38] | The victim’s name is Candace Watson. | |
[21:41] | Suspect’s father is a blue chip. | |
[21:42] | We’ll get you employee records, | |
[21:43] | school transcripts, credit report. | |
[21:45] | Your hair, | |
[21:47] | it’s so you. | |
[21:49] | Mmm. | |
[21:52] | Hi. | |
[21:52] | Hi. | |
[21:54] | We’re not simply looking to prevail at trial. | |
[21:56] | The goal would be to squash this now. | |
[22:00] | I need this. | |
[22:08] | (scoffs) | |
[22:12] | Denny, I am begging you, | |
[22:13] | I’ve prepared this opening for three weeks. | |
[22:16] | Overkill. | |
[22:18] | (sighs) Alan… | |
[22:21] | We don’t want to steal the thunder | |
[22:22] | from your closing, Denny. | |
[22:24] | Not gonna get to a closing, no, sir. | |
[22:27] | WHITE: Mr. Crane, | |
[22:31] | we’ll hear from you. | |
[22:37] | CRANE: Denny Crane, | |
[22:38] | I represent the plaintiff. | |
[22:40] | And here’s what’s gonna happen. | |
[22:41] | A whole lot of witnesses are gonna get up and, | |
[22:44] | tell you how and why… | |
[22:45] | All Shop’s lighting fixture | |
[22:47] | fell on Mary Finnerty’s head, | |
[22:50] | killing her. | |
[22:52] | The defense is gonna get up, have their say, | |
[22:54] | then I’ll get up again | |
[22:56] | and ask you to give… | |
[22:58] | Sarah and Bill Finnerty | |
[23:00] | a whole lot of money. | |
[23:01] | Now, it’s difficult to put a… | |
[23:04] | price on a human life, I grant you, | |
[23:07] | but this is All Shop. | |
[23:09] | And as the defense counsel | |
[23:11] | was so quick to point out to me, | |
[23:13] | they have over 3,000 stores in this country, | |
[23:15] | 10,000 internationally. | |
[23:17] | We’re not talking about one lighting fixture. | |
[23:20] | We’re talking about a lot of lives at stake here. | |
[23:22] | Objection. | |
[23:24] | Sustained. | |
[23:25] | Mr. Crane, can we talk about this case only? | |
[23:27] | Can we do that? | |
[23:28] | Oh, of course. | |
[23:29] | I’m sorry, Your Honor. | |
[23:42] | Um… | |
[23:55] | value of human life, | |
[23:59] | it’s a bugger. | |
[24:01] | My friend Jerry Spence tells the story | |
[24:03] | of this paper boy delivering his papers | |
[24:05] | on his morning route one day. | |
[24:06] | He throws the paper through the window, | |
[24:08] | shatters the glass, | |
[24:11] | blinds a woman. | |
[24:15] | What’s the value of that? | |
[24:19] | The paper boy decides to give the woman | |
[24:24] | his profits for the week, not very much, | |
[24:25] | considering she was blinded. | |
[24:28] | Now, here we have a loss of life, | |
[24:31] | an avoidable loss, | |
[24:32] | not merely an accident, | |
[24:35] | one they could have prevented. | |
[24:38] | So, I think the paper boy had the right idea. | |
[24:40] | At the end of this trial, I’m gonna get up, | |
[24:42] | I’m gonna ask the defendant | |
[24:44] | to pay my client one week’s profit. | |
[24:48] | No, let’s make that a day’s profit. | |
[24:50] | Let’s not get greedy here. | |
[24:53] | We may not be able to put a price | |
[24:54] | on Mary Finnerty’s life, | |
[24:55] | but we can at least pay her family | |
[24:59] | the profits for the day they killed her. | |
[25:03] | What could be more fair than that? | |
[25:07] | Hmm? | |
[25:10] | My client’s profits are not relevant. | |
[25:13] | The number of stores they have is not relevant. | |
[25:16] | How dare you go into that? | |
[25:18] | And how dare you not shut him down? | |
[25:20] | CRANE: May I go off the record briefly? | |
[25:22] | Go right ahead. | |
[25:24] | Thank you. | |
[25:25] | This is not for your ears, by the way. | |
[25:28] | You stupid bastard. | |
[25:30] | Cases rarely turn on what’s legally relevant. | |
[25:32] | What you have to be concerned with here | |
[25:34] | is that All Shop makes $160 million | |
[25:37] | of pure profit a day, a day, | |
[25:39] | in gross revenues, $800 million. | |
[25:41] | In the 20 minutes it took the ambulance | |
[25:42] | to reach Mary Finnerty’s crushed head, | |
[25:45] | your client took in $10 million. | |
[25:48] | That might slip out in court, | |
[25:49] | and even if it doesn’t, | |
[25:51] | look at this face. | |
[25:52] | It comes with its own publicist. | |
[25:54] | The jury will get wind of those numbers. | |
[25:56] | In which case, we’ll appeal. | |
[25:58] | CRANE: Great. And do you think | |
[25:59] | you’ll be the lawyers to handle that appeal | |
[26:01] | when your client gets whacked | |
[26:02] | with a $50-million judgment? | |
[26:04] | You’re an ass. | |
[26:06] | You’re an ass. | |
[26:07] | You’re an ass. | |
[26:09] | How about we settle this case | |
[26:11] | like your careers depended on it? | |
[26:15] | Dumb bastards. | |
[26:17] | I’m sorry. Where were we? | |
[26:23] | Leaving? | |
[26:24] | BERLUTI: I’ve been thinking about this | |
[26:26] | for a long time, and now– | |
[26:28] | Because you couldn’t take that case? | |
[26:29] | In part, yes. | |
[26:31] | The truth is, I’ve always wanted | |
[26:34] | to hang my own shingle. | |
[26:35] | I’m 43 years old. | |
[26:36] | If I don’t do it now, when, then? | |
[26:39] | Considering what we’re going through now, | |
[26:41] | how can you even think of leaving? | |
[26:42] | You are. | |
[26:44] | You interviewed with Hollings and Gray last month. | |
[26:48] | FRUTT: Is that true, Eugene? | |
[26:49] | They called for an interview. | |
[26:51] | I declined. | |
[26:51] | No, you didn’t. | |
[26:53] | I declined the job. | |
[26:54] | But not the interview. | |
[26:55] | You considered leaving, Eugene. | |
[26:58] | That’s what I’ve been doing. | |
[26:59] | We just came to different conclusions. | |
[27:01] | Do you have any idea how difficult | |
[27:03] | it would be to launch a practice? | |
[27:05] | Probably not, | |
[27:06] | but I’m not coming totally from logic here. | |
[27:09] | This is emotional. | |
[27:11] | FRUTT: Given that, | |
[27:13] | why don’t you at least wait | |
[27:15] | to see if this impulse passes? | |
[27:18] | The truth is, Ellenor, | |
[27:19] | I’ve been wanting to leave for a hundred years. | |
[27:23] | I love this and all of you, | |
[27:25] | don’t get me wrong, | |
[27:27] | but what I really want to do, | |
[27:29] | deep down, | |
[27:32] | this isn’t it. | |
[27:35] | I’ll pitch in, handle cases, | |
[27:38] | whatever you need. I won’t abandon you. | |
[27:41] | But I got to do this. | |
[27:45] | (sighs) | |
[27:47] | And when would you do this? | |
[27:51] | Today. | |
[27:52] | It needs to be now. | |
[28:00] | HEEP: I’m sick of her not respecting me. | |
[28:02] | I made law review at Holy Cross, | |
[28:03] | top 10% of my class, | |
[28:05] | and people totally dismiss me | |
[28:06] | because of the way I dress. | |
[28:11] | Well, then, let’s talk about your dress. | |
[28:13] | HEEP: I get clients because of the way I look, Matthew. | |
[28:16] | People approach me– | |
[28:17] | Men approach you. | |
[28:18] | Yes, many of whom go on to hire me. | |
[28:20] | And is that how you plan to carve out your career? | |
[28:28] | You know, you’re right. | |
[28:31] | Law review, top 10% of your class, | |
[28:34] | firms all over town should have been extending offers. | |
[28:38] | How many did? | |
[28:44] | Sally, you’re an attorney. | |
[28:48] | I’m also 25, and I’m not gonna dress like I’m 40. | |
[28:53] | My legal skills are excellent. | |
[28:55] | I shouldn’t get punished | |
[28:57] | because my skirts are short. | |
[28:58] | And you can tell Hannah I’m gonna hit her. | |
[29:01] | I don’t care if she’s a partner. | |
[29:02] | If she keeps treating me like this, | |
[29:03] | I’m gonna hit her. | |
[29:09] | (crying) | |
[29:13] | I’m sorry. | |
[29:16] | According to the seminars, | |
[29:17] | I’m not supposed to hug you, | |
[29:22] | but I’m gonna risk it. | |
[29:26] | Hey, hey, hey. Shh. | |
[29:28] | (crying) | |
[29:30] | Shh. Oh, hey. It’s okay. | |
[29:33] | It’s okay. | |
[29:37] | HALL: Munchausen’s, | |
[29:38] | basically, it’s a disorder that causes people | |
[29:41] | to make up or fake diseases. | |
[29:43] | ROSE: I know what it is. | |
[29:43] | Where did you get this? | |
[29:45] | I should say, how did you get this? | |
[29:47] | I don’t think you mean to ask me that. | |
[29:49] | Was she ever actually diagnosed with Munchausen’s? | |
[29:52] | She doesn’t have it. | |
[29:55] | Then why is she on a hospital list? | |
[29:57] | HALL: It’s computer generated. | |
[29:59] | If a person is admitted for treatment over and over, | |
[30:01] | the name eventually might end up | |
[30:03] | on a possible Munchausen list. | |
[30:07] | Even if the injuries are legit? | |
[30:09] | Shouldn’t happen, | |
[30:10] | but one doctor along the way had to wonder | |
[30:12] | whether she was really abused by her father. | |
[30:15] | That’s enough. | |
[30:28] | Do you have a second? | |
[30:31] | Sure. | |
[30:37] | I’m gonna ask you this | |
[30:38] | in a quiet, refrained tone, | |
[30:41] | so as not to seem like I’m attacking you. | |
[30:44] | How is it you could interview | |
[30:45] | with another law firm at– | |
[30:47] | YOUNG: Ellenor, | |
[30:48] | they wanted to meet. | |
[30:50] | I told them I was not interested. | |
[30:51] | They were persistent about at least talking. | |
[30:53] | I only agreed to hear them out. | |
[30:55] | I did. | |
[30:57] | I restated my position, | |
[30:58] | that I had no interest in leaving here, | |
[31:00] | and that was the end of it. | |
[31:01] | Was that before or after you fired Alan? | |
[31:05] | It was after the firm voted to discharge Alan Shore. | |
[31:10] | Eugene, I don’t think I need to lecture you | |
[31:12] | on the importance of perception. | |
[31:15] | But for us, during an incredibly vulnerable period, | |
[31:19] | for our senior partner to be seen interviewing– | |
[31:22] | Nobody saw. | |
[31:24] | The word was out. | |
[31:25] | Jamie heard it. | |
[31:26] | She told Jimmy. | |
[31:27] | The word got out. | |
[31:30] | Forget that I’m your partner. | |
[31:34] | As your friend, | |
[31:36] | if you’re planning to bail– | |
[31:38] | I’m not bailing. | |
[31:42] | (sighs) | |
[31:45] | Are we gonna survive, Eugene? | |
[31:50] | We’ll survive. | |
[31:52] | I’m not bailing, | |
[31:54] | and we’ll survive. | |
[32:02] | (sighs) | |
[32:07] | What can I tell his father? | |
[32:09] | That I’m meeting with the D. A. This morning. | |
[32:11] | Other than that, | |
[32:13] | Tara… | |
[32:14] | Copies of cases, | |
[32:15] | first circuit’s on top, | |
[32:17] | Massachusetts is the second tab, | |
[32:18] | dictum and legislative intent after that. | |
[32:21] | Would you like me to come with you? | |
[32:22] | I would, actually, | |
[32:24] | but I’m too afraid you’ll talk. | |
[32:32] | Would it kill you to be kind? | |
[32:34] | Actually, I was once, and it almost did. | |
[32:36] | Ah, so I get the blame for how you treat people. | |
[32:40] | Just the opposite, I give you total credit. | |
[32:44] | Hannah, I would hate to be the only one | |
[32:46] | to experience the tender you. | |
[32:50] | It’s late. | |
[32:52] | I’ve got to go do good deeds. | |
[32:59] | Sheldon, I heard you settled. | |
[33:02] | Yeah. | |
[33:03] | $6.5 million. | |
[33:04] | Good result, the client’s pleased. | |
[33:06] | $6.5 million… | |
[33:08] | you were stuck between $1.2 million and $2.3 million. | |
[33:10] | How did you get $6.5 million? | |
[33:12] | Denny did good work. | |
[33:15] | So I don’t need to intervene today? | |
[33:23] | Don’t you love it here? | |
[33:29] | These convictions are extremely difficult to get, | |
[33:33] | especially when the suspect and victim | |
[33:35] | once had a consensual relationship. | |
[33:38] | Well, their relationship– | |
[33:39] | I’m not saying I won’t get it. | |
[33:41] | I’m just trying to prepare you, Mr. Watson. | |
[33:46] | (knocks on door) | |
[33:48] | Kenny, I, uh… | |
[33:50] | oh, I’m sorry. | |
[33:51] | I didn’t know you were busy. | |
[33:54] | Actually, I did. | |
[33:57] | (sighs) You’re Candace Watson’s father? | |
[33:59] | I am. | |
[34:01] | Hannah Rose, | |
[34:02] | I have the unfortunate task | |
[34:03] | of defending the man | |
[34:04] | who raped your daughter, | |
[34:05] | who, between the three of us, | |
[34:07] | I’m convinced is guilty. | |
[34:09] | What do you want, Hannah? | |
[34:10] | In the interest of no surprises, | |
[34:13] | medical report, | |
[34:15] | a claim you once abused your daughter. | |
[34:19] | I’m sure you didn’t. | |
[34:20] | A hospital turned up her name | |
[34:22] | as a possible Munchausen’s. | |
[34:23] | What is going on? WALSH: Hannah, if you | |
[34:24] | could excuse us, please? | |
[34:25] | If she makes things up– | |
[34:27] | WALSH: That’s all, Hannah. | |
[34:29] | I’m leaving. | |
[34:33] | This can be used | |
[34:35] | to pierce rape shield, | |
[34:37] | which is vulnerable to begin with. | |
[34:40] | You might want to consider | |
[34:41] | sparing your daughter this trial. | |
[34:43] | WALSH: Hannah. | |
[34:44] | Get out. | |
[34:46] | Misdemeanor assault, | |
[34:48] | one year suspended, that’s a gift. | |
[34:51] | None of us wants to go to trial here. | |
[34:57] | (door opens) | |
[34:59] | (door closes) | |
[35:02] | And the D. A. Agreed? | |
[35:04] | I just got the call. | |
[35:06] | Your son does get a conviction. | |
[35:08] | But no jail? | |
[35:09] | Assuming the judge signs off, | |
[35:11] | which he should. | |
[35:13] | Oh, thank God. | |
[35:15] | You can thank Hannah. | |
[35:20] | I don’t know what to say. | |
[35:22] | He’s a fine young man, Ms. Rose, and… | |
[35:28] | Mr. Solomon, I can see you’re having a moment. | |
[35:31] | But for my take on the facts, | |
[35:33] | which includes an interview with the fine, young man, | |
[35:35] | he’s a rapist. | |
[35:41] | If he’s to make anything of this second chance, | |
[35:43] | daddy needs to see the fine, young man | |
[35:45] | for what he is | |
[35:46] | and get him into some counseling. | |
[35:56] | HEEP: They’re all nuts. | |
[35:57] | QUINLEN: Who? | |
[35:58] | The partners. | |
[36:01] | They’ve all totally had work done. | |
[36:03] | They have? | |
[36:04] | Please. Denny Crane’s head | |
[36:05] | is so pumped full of Botox. | |
[36:07] | Even Hannah, pretty Hannah. | |
[36:09] | Hannah Rose? | |
[36:09] | HEEP: Yeah. | |
[36:11] | She’s in her 30s. | |
[36:12] | So what? She’s pulled so tight, | |
[36:13] | she’s got to cross her legs to smile. | |
[36:18] | Oh, my God. | |
[36:21] | (sighs) | |
[36:23] | I guess it’s lucky I don’t like to smile. | |
[36:25] | I was just– | |
[36:28] | Oh, my God. | |
[36:35] | How much do we pay you, Sally? | |
[36:39] | $160,000. | |
[36:41] | Do you think we pay you $160,000 | |
[36:44] | to come down here to the storage room | |
[36:45] | and smoke pot, Sally? | |
[36:47] | No, ma’am. | |
[36:49] | It would be a mistake to call me “Ma’am.” | |
[36:53] | Give me the joint, Sally. | |
[36:57] | Do you need to pee, Mark? | |
[36:58] | Yes, ma’am, sir, | |
[37:01] | Hannah. | |
[37:02] | God. | |
[37:03] | Go pee, Mark. | |
[37:11] | I, like, | |
[37:13] | so miscalculated my day. | |
[37:16] | I’ve had a lousy day, too, Sal. | |
[37:19] | I arranged for a rapist to get off | |
[37:21] | with just a slap on the wrist. | |
[37:23] | Now I need to go buy something | |
[37:25] | to feel better about myself. | |
[37:28] | I’ve been eyeing this little purse, actually, | |
[37:30] | it costs $900. | |
[37:32] | Can you imagine, $900 for a purse? | |
[37:38] | Luckily, I can afford it. | |
[37:40] | Partners here are well paid. | |
[37:43] | I bet you hope to be partner one day. | |
[37:51] | Complain about me to anyone ever again, | |
[37:54] | even to your own mother, | |
[37:57] | this little pot incident, | |
[38:00] | comes to light. | |
[38:24] | What the hell are you doing in my office? | |
[38:29] | Had you there again, didn’t I, dad? | |
[38:31] | I’ve asked you not to make fun of my mental health. | |
[38:34] | As I recall, | |
[38:37] | I meant it. | |
[38:40] | If I offended you before, I apologize. | |
[38:45] | You know, you don’t fool me. | |
[38:50] | My success as a trial attorney | |
[38:51] | comes from my ability to read people. | |
[38:56] | I read you. | |
[39:00] | I know your little secret, soldier. | |
[39:04] | You do? | |
[39:05] | Mm-hmm. | |
[39:07] | You’re in awe of me. | |
[39:13] | Well, now that the secret’s out, | |
[39:18] | let me tell you something, Denny Crane, | |
[39:22] | having watched you at the courthouse yesterday, | |
[39:26] | I just want you to know, | |
[39:29] | I am in awe. | |
[39:33] | You’re Denny Crane, | |
[39:37] | and that’s… | |
[39:40] | something. | |
[39:56] | You’ve taken up a minute of my time. | |
[39:59] | To whom do I send the bill? | |
[40:04] | Send the bill to me. | |
[40:15] | Best thing is, it’s elegant. | |
[40:17] | You can go dressy, and it’s casual. | |
[40:19] | It goes with a sweater and jeans just as well. | |
[40:22] | And the size… | |
[40:24] | Do you like to carry a lot of stuff? | |
[40:26] | Totally. | |
[40:28] | Let’s go with the big one. | |
[40:30] | Oh, I’m jealous. | |
[40:31] | I’ve been saving up to get this same bag. | |
[40:33] | Well, look on the bright side, | |
[40:35] | if I saw it on you, I’d no longer want it. | |
[40:38] | Tell you what. | |
[40:40] | Give me half off, | |
[40:41] | I’ll buy you one. | |
[40:42] | WATSON: If only I could. | |
[40:44] | Look, if you get home, and you suddenly hate it, | |
[40:46] | bring it back, no problem. | |
[40:48] | Not supposed to say it. | |
[40:49] | Never heard it. | |
[40:54] | What’s the matter? | |
[40:58] | Hannah Rose? | |
[41:00] | You’re an attorney? | |
[41:04] | Why? | |
[41:06] | My name is Candace Watson. | |
[41:10] | Your client raped me last week. | |
[41:22] | (scoffs) | |
[41:23] | Small town, Boston. | |
[41:27] | Just sign here, please, and you’re good to go. | |
[41:33] | Look, I, uh, | |
[41:38] | (sighs) | |
[41:44] | (music playing) | |
[42:19] | (music playing) | |
[42:45] | WOMAN: You stinker! | |
[42:46] | (music playing) |
