1
00:00:06,006 --> 00:00:07,465
It's juror number seven, isn't it?
2
00:00:07,549 --> 00:00:11,094
-All I know is he's bought and paid for.
-I thought you had investors.
3
00:00:11,177 --> 00:00:12,512
Not the kind you're thinking of.
4
00:00:12,595 --> 00:00:16,349
I had a roommate in college
named Pavel Kosevich. I know.
5
00:00:16,433 --> 00:00:19,019
His father's name is Sergei Kosevich.
6
00:00:19,102 --> 00:00:21,312
This is not a man you fuck with, Mickey.
7
00:00:21,396 --> 00:00:23,148
Maybe juror number seven's dead.
8
00:00:23,231 --> 00:00:26,276
Did you think of that?
Maybe you and I are next.
9
00:00:26,359 --> 00:00:27,736
Who did this to you?
10
00:00:27,819 --> 00:00:30,572
Without your witness, Soto walks.
11
00:00:30,655 --> 00:00:32,741
[judge] Bail will be set at $2 million.
12
00:00:32,824 --> 00:00:36,870
Tanya, did Soto do anything
to confirm he had your friend killed?
13
00:00:36,953 --> 00:00:42,000
The night before your witness was killed,
I drove him to the same flower shop.
14
00:00:42,917 --> 00:00:45,336
[Lankford] There's not enough
on the phone to nail him.
15
00:00:45,420 --> 00:00:46,921
We gotta get him to turn on Soto.
16
00:00:47,005 --> 00:00:49,382
Do you know why
Lara Elliott reached out to you?
17
00:00:49,466 --> 00:00:53,094
She just said she had something
to tell me and needed to do it in person.
18
00:00:53,178 --> 00:00:55,305
Did Mr. Elliott seem worried or panicked?
19
00:00:55,388 --> 00:00:58,475
[officer] No. But it looked
like he was scrolling through his email.
20
00:00:58,558 --> 00:01:01,227
We had this case won
and you threw it away.
21
00:01:01,311 --> 00:01:03,813
Tell me something.
How do you sleep at night?
22
00:01:04,439 --> 00:01:07,817
I'm going to enjoy
watching the jury convict your client.
23
00:01:07,901 --> 00:01:10,403
[Mickey] We established that
this vehicle was not cleaned.
24
00:01:10,487 --> 00:01:13,490
Could that account for
the gunshot residue on my client's hands?
25
00:01:13,573 --> 00:01:15,784
Given the staggering amount of GSR,
26
00:01:15,867 --> 00:01:18,119
it's the only thing
that could account for it.
27
00:01:18,203 --> 00:01:21,122
[Izzy] What's it like, the moment
when you know you've won?
28
00:01:21,206 --> 00:01:22,832
You never really know for sure.
29
00:01:22,916 --> 00:01:25,210
We missed you last night at the meeting.
30
00:01:25,293 --> 00:01:27,295
My ex is in town,
doing a show. We had dinner.
31
00:01:27,378 --> 00:01:28,338
How did that go?
32
00:01:28,421 --> 00:01:32,175
She asked me to get high with her.
I came within a millimeter of saying yes.
33
00:01:32,258 --> 00:01:34,552
I need to win
in the court of public opinion.
34
00:01:34,636 --> 00:01:36,221
No lawyer can give you that.
35
00:01:36,304 --> 00:01:37,889
That's why I need to testify.
36
00:01:55,907 --> 00:01:59,369
[Izzy] Woke up in my clothes.
Haven't done that in a while.
37
00:01:59,452 --> 00:02:00,662
In a teenager's room.
38
00:02:01,746 --> 00:02:05,458
Tell your daughter she's got good taste
in music. I am down for the K-pop.
39
00:02:08,002 --> 00:02:09,129
Thanks for the rescue.
40
00:02:10,630 --> 00:02:13,341
-Was that a stumble or a fall?
-A stumble.
41
00:02:14,050 --> 00:02:16,803
I called my sponsor
and I'm going to a meeting. Promise.
42
00:02:16,886 --> 00:02:17,846
Good.
43
00:02:19,013 --> 00:02:22,600
I don't want you worrying about me.
You got a trial to win, right?
44
00:02:22,684 --> 00:02:24,853
Yeah. Maybe. Maybe not. [sighs]
45
00:02:25,645 --> 00:02:26,729
I miss something?
46
00:02:28,857 --> 00:02:32,402
My client wants to testify.
Can't talk him out of it.
47
00:02:32,485 --> 00:02:34,612
Isn't that what you're not supposed to do?
48
00:02:34,696 --> 00:02:39,117
It's like boxing. We won the fight
on points, but my guy wants to brawl.
49
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,204
I just have to convince him
to play defense and not get knocked out.
50
00:02:45,915 --> 00:02:49,627
-You going in early? I'll take you.
-No, you take yourself to that meeting.
51
00:02:49,711 --> 00:02:53,548
I'll drop you off at your car.
Part of my generous benefits package.
52
00:02:55,967 --> 00:02:57,969
Your wife was sleeping with another man,
53
00:02:58,052 --> 00:03:02,056
you expect this jury to believe that you
found them naked in bed, shot to death?
54
00:03:02,140 --> 00:03:03,141
That's what happened.
55
00:03:03,224 --> 00:03:05,685
You went there
'cause you knew they'd be together.
56
00:03:05,768 --> 00:03:06,603
No.
57
00:03:06,686 --> 00:03:09,022
You crept up the stairs
with a .45 and confronted them?
58
00:03:09,105 --> 00:03:11,733
No. I found them dead.
59
00:03:11,816 --> 00:03:15,361
-I told--
-You shot Jan Rilz first, point blank.
60
00:03:15,445 --> 00:03:16,446
No.
61
00:03:16,529 --> 00:03:18,698
Your wife begged for her life,
you killed her too?
62
00:03:18,781 --> 00:03:20,533
No! No!
63
00:03:21,951 --> 00:03:22,827
[exhales]
64
00:03:24,287 --> 00:03:27,457
I have to get you ready
for cross-examination, you understand?
65
00:03:27,540 --> 00:03:30,668
Golantz has nothing to lose, Trevor.
He's already bleeding.
66
00:03:30,752 --> 00:03:32,629
Why are you offering him your throat?
67
00:03:32,712 --> 00:03:34,881
Mickey, I told you this
from the beginning.
68
00:03:35,965 --> 00:03:39,177
I will not spend the rest of my life
69
00:03:39,260 --> 00:03:42,722
hearing people whisper,
"Did he do it?" behind my back.
70
00:03:42,805 --> 00:03:44,933
I'm gonna do that whether you win or lose.
71
00:03:45,016 --> 00:03:46,351
-Yeah. Lorna.
-Uh.
72
00:03:48,436 --> 00:03:51,564
Whatever Golantz
throws at you, your job, Trevor,
73
00:03:51,648 --> 00:03:54,108
is to tell the jury
how much you loved your wife.
74
00:03:54,192 --> 00:03:57,278
All right? Now you do that,
maybe we can pull this off.
75
00:04:02,867 --> 00:04:04,869
[opening theme music playing]
76
00:04:12,543 --> 00:04:14,462
-[greets in Spanish]
-[in English] Hey.
77
00:04:14,545 --> 00:04:17,257
-I read your closing.
-And?
78
00:04:17,340 --> 00:04:20,260
It's good. It's thorough.
79
00:04:20,343 --> 00:04:22,262
-You hate it.
-No, I…
80
00:04:22,345 --> 00:04:25,223
You hate it. Come on.
Just give it to me straight, Lorna.
81
00:04:25,306 --> 00:04:29,143
[sighs] It's about gunshot residue
and forensic analysis.
82
00:04:29,227 --> 00:04:31,562
That's my defense.
I don't have anything else.
83
00:04:31,646 --> 00:04:32,939
That's Jerry's defense.
84
00:04:35,316 --> 00:04:39,487
Just… It doesn't feel like you.
85
00:04:39,570 --> 00:04:43,074
I know. But I've got my entire career
riding on this and he…
86
00:04:43,157 --> 00:04:46,869
This whole time, I just feel
like I'm wearing a dead man's suit.
87
00:04:46,953 --> 00:04:49,205
That's disgusting.
Don't say that in court.
88
00:04:49,289 --> 00:04:53,334
[sighs] Sometimes, you just gotta
ride the horse you rode in on.
89
00:04:55,086 --> 00:04:56,296
I gotta go.
90
00:04:57,422 --> 00:05:01,092
[Alvin] Call my parole officer.
Where is he?
91
00:05:02,552 --> 00:05:03,720
This is bullshit.
92
00:05:06,264 --> 00:05:07,473
You got nothin'.
93
00:05:09,309 --> 00:05:11,769
Violate me or let me go.
94
00:05:11,853 --> 00:05:14,647
You done, Alvin?
'Cause you're giving me a headache.
95
00:05:23,406 --> 00:05:26,826
So… this is you.
96
00:05:28,619 --> 00:05:33,374
This is where David Loresca was killed
ten minutes later, a block away.
97
00:05:33,458 --> 00:05:36,252
That is a hell of a coincidence.
98
00:05:37,211 --> 00:05:39,839
We got you at the scene, Alvin.
99
00:05:40,882 --> 00:05:43,384
With your record, you're looking at life.
100
00:05:44,635 --> 00:05:45,636
However…
101
00:05:47,638 --> 00:05:49,265
we know that it was a job.
102
00:05:50,266 --> 00:05:52,602
We know who paid you. We know why.
103
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:54,687
And that's who we want.
104
00:05:56,314 --> 00:06:00,234
Okay? So you just
have to help us help you.
105
00:06:02,278 --> 00:06:04,155
Just give it up, Alvin.
106
00:06:05,406 --> 00:06:07,742
You know we can make this all go away.
107
00:06:10,828 --> 00:06:12,121
[sobbing]
108
00:06:14,499 --> 00:06:16,125
[laughs maniacally]
109
00:06:19,003 --> 00:06:23,049
I knew my phone was acting weird
after that bullshit search.
110
00:06:24,467 --> 00:06:25,385
Yeah.
111
00:06:27,011 --> 00:06:28,388
I was there.
112
00:06:29,847 --> 00:06:31,474
Making a delivery.
113
00:06:32,767 --> 00:06:34,018
Call my boss.
114
00:06:35,686 --> 00:06:36,896
Better yet…
115
00:06:38,856 --> 00:06:41,859
call Father Cruz at St. Lorenzo's.
116
00:06:45,988 --> 00:06:47,281
He signed for it.
117
00:06:57,625 --> 00:06:59,043
Bullshit, but it checks out.
118
00:07:00,128 --> 00:07:01,754
How long have we got?
119
00:07:01,838 --> 00:07:04,340
He burned his phone call
thinking it was a parole beef,
120
00:07:04,424 --> 00:07:05,633
we can hold him for ten hours.
121
00:07:05,716 --> 00:07:07,593
As soon as we
cut him loose, he'll tell Soto.
122
00:07:07,677 --> 00:07:08,719
Soto'll circle the wagons.
123
00:07:08,803 --> 00:07:11,013
Won't take him long
to figure out who turned on him.
124
00:07:11,097 --> 00:07:14,600
Maybe not though. Right now, Alvin thinks
someone in his gang snitched him out,
125
00:07:14,684 --> 00:07:16,769
so maybe they'll go
on a witch-hunt there instead.
126
00:07:16,853 --> 00:07:19,147
Okay. That's good.
127
00:07:19,981 --> 00:07:22,442
Use that to scare him
before you let him go.
128
00:07:22,525 --> 00:07:24,193
Give Soto something else to worry about.
129
00:07:24,277 --> 00:07:27,071
-Wait, where you going?
-To throw a Hail Mary.
130
00:07:28,072 --> 00:07:28,948
[door closes]
131
00:07:30,032 --> 00:07:31,742
[Mickey] You want my client
to wear a wire?
132
00:07:31,826 --> 00:07:34,036
[Maggie] I don't have a choice.
133
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,789
[Mickey] You do.
Tell fucking Lankford to go to hell.
134
00:07:36,873 --> 00:07:40,751
[Maggie] It's my idea, Mickey. She's
the only person Soto might open up to.
135
00:07:40,835 --> 00:07:43,796
You want to make a pregnant woman
collateral damage, Maggie?
136
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:48,217
[laughs incredulously] You're judging me?
The tactics I've seen you pull in cases…
137
00:07:48,301 --> 00:07:50,470
Now I see where Hayley gets her ideas.
138
00:07:50,553 --> 00:07:52,889
I do what I have to do
for my clients, Maggie.
139
00:07:52,972 --> 00:07:54,390
Really? What about Eli Wyms?
140
00:07:55,266 --> 00:07:57,727
-What?
-[Maggie] People talk at the DA's office.
141
00:07:57,810 --> 00:08:00,771
You stuck him in a psych ward
until you could spring him on Golantz.
142
00:08:00,855 --> 00:08:03,816
-He wasn't collateral damage?
-That was Jerry. Wasn't me.
143
00:08:03,900 --> 00:08:06,319
Bottom line, it's her call, Mickey.
144
00:08:06,402 --> 00:08:10,364
Maggie, you sent her to me because
you knew I would take care of her.
145
00:08:10,448 --> 00:08:13,284
-Right? Now you just want me to roll over?
-This is taking care of her.
146
00:08:13,367 --> 00:08:15,453
She needs to get out
from under this thing.
147
00:08:17,371 --> 00:08:20,750
All right, fine.
You want Tanya to wear a wire?
148
00:08:20,833 --> 00:08:22,585
If, for some reason, she agrees,
149
00:08:22,668 --> 00:08:24,545
the second
she gets a confession, she's done.
150
00:08:24,629 --> 00:08:27,632
-Meaning?
-She never has to testify against Soto.
151
00:08:27,715 --> 00:08:30,968
-And you relocate her immediately.
-I don't know if I can do that.
152
00:08:31,052 --> 00:08:34,263
This is not negotiable, Maggie.
The guy kills witnesses.
153
00:08:37,225 --> 00:08:39,560
[sighs] Okay. Okay.
154
00:08:39,644 --> 00:08:43,314
Good. I'll sit with her in a few days,
and I'll explain everything--
155
00:08:43,397 --> 00:08:46,025
-This has to happen today.
-I'm in the middle of a trial.
156
00:08:46,108 --> 00:08:47,235
Then I'll talk to her.
157
00:08:47,318 --> 00:08:51,697
You want me to let the DA talk to my
client about wearing a wire without me?
158
00:08:51,781 --> 00:08:55,034
-No. Hell no.
-I'm not the DA. I'm me.
159
00:08:57,245 --> 00:09:00,122
You wanna rebuild things?
You want me to trust you again?
160
00:09:00,206 --> 00:09:03,584
Then start by trusting me. Okay?
161
00:09:07,588 --> 00:09:09,674
[Mickey] What do you want from me, Cisco?
162
00:09:09,757 --> 00:09:11,926
My client is insisting
on taking the stand.
163
00:09:12,009 --> 00:09:13,678
Yeah, well, I don't get it, Mick.
164
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:15,930
Hey, babe.
165
00:09:16,013 --> 00:09:20,226
If this guy blows up his own case,
Sergei Kosevich is gonna kill him.
166
00:09:21,143 --> 00:09:22,770
What does he have? A death wish?
167
00:09:22,853 --> 00:09:25,856
I don't have time to figure out
the answer to that right now.
168
00:09:25,940 --> 00:09:28,276
[Cisco] Well, how about you?
Do you have one?
169
00:09:28,359 --> 00:09:32,113
Because this guy's putting a target
on your back and your family, too.
170
00:09:32,196 --> 00:09:35,825
I don't have a choice, Cisco.
I've got to do what my client wants.
171
00:09:35,908 --> 00:09:39,036
And Hayley and Maggie,
they're safe. At least for now.
172
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,538
Oh, yeah? How do you know?
173
00:09:41,330 --> 00:09:44,208
Because I've got people watching them.
174
00:09:45,001 --> 00:09:47,169
-Who?
-It doesn't matter, Cisco.
175
00:09:47,253 --> 00:09:50,673
The best way I can keep everybody
safe is to get my client an acquittal.
176
00:09:50,756 --> 00:09:53,801
That's what I'm gonna do.
All right? So just wish me luck.
177
00:09:59,515 --> 00:10:00,808
[sighs]
178
00:10:25,249 --> 00:10:26,292
[elevator dings]
179
00:10:26,375 --> 00:10:27,793
[cell phone chimes]
180
00:10:30,254 --> 00:10:33,341
Excuse me. Haller. You got a minute?
181
00:10:35,509 --> 00:10:36,427
[clears throat]
182
00:10:40,264 --> 00:10:43,726
Voluntary manslaughter.
Eleven years. Probably do nine.
183
00:10:43,809 --> 00:10:46,020
I know you think
you've got me over a barrel,
184
00:10:46,103 --> 00:10:48,105
but you never know what a jury's gonna do.
185
00:10:49,774 --> 00:10:50,983
That's it?
186
00:10:51,817 --> 00:10:53,778
You're not much of a salesman, are you?
187
00:10:56,614 --> 00:10:58,574
I'm not used to having to be one.
188
00:11:01,952 --> 00:11:05,414
I'll take it to my client,
but knowing him, don't hold your breath.
189
00:11:21,180 --> 00:11:22,181
[man] All rise!
190
00:11:28,896 --> 00:11:29,730
Be seated.
191
00:11:36,237 --> 00:11:39,865
Mr. Haller, any more evidence to present?
192
00:11:43,911 --> 00:11:47,540
Just have one more witness, Your Honor.
193
00:11:50,668 --> 00:11:52,128
Defense calls Trevor Elliott.
194
00:11:52,211 --> 00:11:53,504
[murmuring indistinctly]
195
00:12:20,948 --> 00:12:22,450
[woman] Raise your right hand.
196
00:12:23,451 --> 00:12:28,914
Do you solemnly state that the testimony
you may give shall be the truth,
197
00:12:28,998 --> 00:12:31,000
the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth?
198
00:12:31,083 --> 00:12:32,084
I do.
199
00:12:35,629 --> 00:12:38,674
Mr. Elliott, I think the jury
is well aware of who you are.
200
00:12:39,425 --> 00:12:41,302
Tell us what you do for a living?
201
00:12:41,385 --> 00:12:45,306
Of course. I run a company called Parallax
202
00:12:46,182 --> 00:12:48,058
that I founded with my wife, Lara.
203
00:12:48,142 --> 00:12:49,518
We make video games.
204
00:12:49,602 --> 00:12:52,646
And what is your biggest
selling game to date?
205
00:12:52,730 --> 00:12:54,273
It's called Nocturna.
206
00:12:54,356 --> 00:12:59,111
It's a journey through a post-apocalyptic
America cloaked in perpetual darkness.
207
00:12:59,195 --> 00:13:00,571
And this is fun for people?
208
00:13:00,654 --> 00:13:01,655
[jury chuckles]
209
00:13:03,866 --> 00:13:06,827
Yeah, so much so,
we're about to launch a sequel.
210
00:13:08,078 --> 00:13:10,289
In your opinion,
what makes the game special?
211
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,709
Well, if you ask the players,
it's the characters.
212
00:13:15,127 --> 00:13:17,588
They look like real people.
213
00:13:17,671 --> 00:13:22,009
In a way that when we started, other
video games couldn't compete with it.
214
00:13:22,092 --> 00:13:24,595
It's like a movie that you play a part in.
215
00:13:25,346 --> 00:13:29,850
And in Nocturna, who would be
considered the star of the movie?
216
00:13:29,934 --> 00:13:33,354
Sure, the hero's name is Jasmine Lumens.
217
00:13:34,438 --> 00:13:37,733
But her image is based on my wife, Lara.
218
00:13:38,275 --> 00:13:41,111
I designed the character after her
as a way to honor her,
219
00:13:42,279 --> 00:13:45,741
and how much I loved her.
How much she inspired me.
220
00:13:49,370 --> 00:13:51,372
How did you meet your wife, Mr. Elliott?
221
00:13:52,540 --> 00:13:55,251
We met in grad school, at Stanford.
222
00:13:56,877 --> 00:14:01,423
I was in front of the room,
working on a problem up on the board.
223
00:14:02,424 --> 00:14:07,596
When I'd finished, the professor
immediately erased the entire thing
224
00:14:08,347 --> 00:14:10,683
because I'd made
a fundamental error. It was…
225
00:14:11,517 --> 00:14:13,143
[scoffs] humiliating.
226
00:14:13,227 --> 00:14:14,645
And what happened then?
227
00:14:15,771 --> 00:14:19,441
Lara raised her hand and said
that she'd made the same mistake.
228
00:14:19,525 --> 00:14:20,734
It made me feel better.
229
00:14:22,403 --> 00:14:27,575
Until I was walking past her desk
and happened to glance at her screen,
230
00:14:28,450 --> 00:14:29,994
and she got the problem right.
231
00:14:32,997 --> 00:14:34,206
But that was Lara.
232
00:14:41,213 --> 00:14:42,631
What was your marriage like?
233
00:14:44,884 --> 00:14:46,093
Well, it wasn't perfect.
234
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,430
We had problems like any couple.
235
00:14:50,806 --> 00:14:52,391
[Mickey] What kind of problems?
236
00:14:57,980 --> 00:15:00,190
Infidelity, for one.
237
00:15:02,443 --> 00:15:04,361
I knew she was having the affair.
238
00:15:04,445 --> 00:15:05,905
[murmuring indistinctly]
239
00:15:06,906 --> 00:15:09,533
-[Mickey] Did you tell the police that?
-[Trevor] No.
240
00:15:09,617 --> 00:15:10,492
[Mickey] Why not?
241
00:15:11,869 --> 00:15:16,081
Because I knew it would make me
look like an angry, jealous husband,
242
00:15:16,165 --> 00:15:17,291
and that wasn't true.
243
00:15:18,459 --> 00:15:19,418
I'd forgiven her.
244
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:21,754
Why?
245
00:15:23,130 --> 00:15:25,507
Because her affair was my fault.
246
00:15:27,301 --> 00:15:28,302
See, I…
247
00:15:29,178 --> 00:15:34,058
I was working all the time.
And ignoring her.
248
00:15:35,476 --> 00:15:39,063
And I had also been unfaithful.
249
00:15:40,522 --> 00:15:43,192
-[Mickey] You had affairs?
-[Trevor] Yes.
250
00:15:44,902 --> 00:15:48,572
I was not a perfect husband
in any way, shape, or form.
251
00:15:50,366 --> 00:15:52,409
And I felt so lucky every day
252
00:15:53,243 --> 00:15:59,083
that Lara was able to look past that
and see me for the man I was trying to be
253
00:16:00,209 --> 00:16:02,252
and not the man I sometimes was.
254
00:16:04,797 --> 00:16:07,508
Why did you go out
to the house that day, Mr. Elliott?
255
00:16:10,135 --> 00:16:11,345
I went out there…
256
00:16:14,723 --> 00:16:16,183
to fight for my wife.
257
00:16:18,185 --> 00:16:20,479
To try and save our marriage.
258
00:16:22,189 --> 00:16:23,315
Instead…
259
00:16:26,902 --> 00:16:28,988
I found them dead.
260
00:16:30,239 --> 00:16:31,699
[voice shaking] Both of them.
261
00:16:44,461 --> 00:16:48,257
People would not oppose a break,
so Mr. Elliott can gather himself.
262
00:16:48,340 --> 00:16:49,842
[Mickey] Unnecessary, Judge.
263
00:16:51,176 --> 00:16:55,264
Mr. Elliott…
I only have one more question.
264
00:16:57,474 --> 00:16:58,684
Did you kill your wife?
265
00:17:01,061 --> 00:17:02,312
God, no.
266
00:17:05,482 --> 00:17:06,692
I love her.
267
00:17:07,317 --> 00:17:08,193
[sighs]
268
00:17:10,612 --> 00:17:12,656
I loved her.
269
00:17:37,890 --> 00:17:39,308
[Stanton] Cross-examination.
270
00:17:43,812 --> 00:17:47,357
Mr. Elliott, you told the police
that you and your wife
271
00:17:47,441 --> 00:17:50,235
had an argument the night
before the murders. Is that correct?
272
00:17:50,903 --> 00:17:52,154
Yes.
273
00:17:52,237 --> 00:17:54,406
[Golantz] Contrary to
what you told the police,
274
00:17:54,490 --> 00:17:57,242
you just testified that that argument
was about her affair.
275
00:17:58,368 --> 00:17:59,703
That's correct.
276
00:17:59,787 --> 00:18:04,958
Now, you also told the police that you
drove out to the Malibu house the next day
277
00:18:05,042 --> 00:18:08,754
to surprise Lara
with a trip up the coast. Is that right?
278
00:18:09,588 --> 00:18:10,422
Yes.
279
00:18:11,090 --> 00:18:14,635
Is that in fact true, or another
thing you lied to the police about?
280
00:18:14,718 --> 00:18:17,096
-Objection. Argumentative?
-I'll move on.
281
00:18:17,179 --> 00:18:21,725
Prior to driving out to your house
that day, did you make any reservations?
282
00:18:23,060 --> 00:18:24,061
Reservations?
283
00:18:25,020 --> 00:18:29,316
At a hotel?
Or a restaurant? For your trip.
284
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,904
Yeah, not that I can recall.
I was trying to be spontaneous.
285
00:18:33,987 --> 00:18:38,534
The People would like to enter
into evidence, the People's exhibit 21.
286
00:18:39,660 --> 00:18:40,744
[Stanton] So entered.
287
00:18:43,872 --> 00:18:46,250
[Golantz] Is this your appointment
calendar, Mr. Elliott?
288
00:18:47,876 --> 00:18:50,504
That looks to be a printout of it, yes.
289
00:18:50,587 --> 00:18:54,967
[Golantz] Could you please turn to the day
of the murder, September 6th of last year?
290
00:18:55,843 --> 00:18:58,387
Do you see
the list of meetings for that day?
291
00:18:58,470 --> 00:18:59,346
Yes.
292
00:19:00,347 --> 00:19:01,807
[Golantz] How many are there?
293
00:19:02,558 --> 00:19:04,059
Uh, seven.
294
00:19:04,143 --> 00:19:07,146
Now, did you cancel
any of those seven meetings
295
00:19:07,229 --> 00:19:10,816
before getting in the car
to surprise your wife with the trip?
296
00:19:10,899 --> 00:19:13,527
I wasn't thinking about that.
We just had a fight.
297
00:19:13,610 --> 00:19:15,237
It's a yes or no question.
298
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,240
Did you or did you not
clear your calendar that day?
299
00:19:20,075 --> 00:19:21,743
No, I don't believe I did.
300
00:19:21,827 --> 00:19:23,954
You knew Jan Rilz was with your wife
301
00:19:24,037 --> 00:19:26,373
when you drove out to the house
that day, didn't you?
302
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:28,083
No.
303
00:19:30,419 --> 00:19:33,005
[Golantz] This is People's exhibit 22.
304
00:19:34,715 --> 00:19:36,091
The security camera log.
305
00:19:39,428 --> 00:19:40,762
Now, isn't it a fact
306
00:19:40,846 --> 00:19:44,474
that you knew the cameras at your
Malibu house were turned off that morning?
307
00:19:45,434 --> 00:19:49,479
I knew about the affair. I didn't know
Rilz was going to be at the house.
308
00:19:49,563 --> 00:19:54,860
Your testimony is that you weren't upset
because you had been unfaithful yourself?
309
00:19:55,736 --> 00:19:57,487
Well, yes.
310
00:19:58,822 --> 00:20:01,241
Did you and Lara Elliott
have a prenuptial agreement?
311
00:20:01,325 --> 00:20:02,159
No.
312
00:20:02,242 --> 00:20:03,952
So if your wife divorced you,
313
00:20:04,036 --> 00:20:06,663
she would've been entitled
to half of your fortune, right?
314
00:20:06,747 --> 00:20:10,000
Objection. Mr. Elliott
is not an expert in family law.
315
00:20:10,626 --> 00:20:11,627
[Stanton] Sustained.
316
00:20:16,882 --> 00:20:18,342
The night before the murders,
317
00:20:19,676 --> 00:20:22,012
did your wife tell you
she was meeting Sonia Patel?
318
00:20:22,095 --> 00:20:22,930
No.
319
00:20:23,013 --> 00:20:27,476
Isn't it a fact that you were afraid
that she was talking about divorcing you?
320
00:20:27,559 --> 00:20:30,520
Perhaps asking an old friend
how to protect herself financially?
321
00:20:30,604 --> 00:20:33,815
-Objection. Calls for speculation.
-[Golantz] I'll rephrase the question.
322
00:20:33,899 --> 00:20:39,029
Mr. Elliott, do you know why your wife
reached out to Sonia Patel?
323
00:20:39,112 --> 00:20:44,868
No. Lara hadn't seen Sonia in years.
I don't know why she contacted her.
324
00:20:46,286 --> 00:20:49,248
-[Golantz] Do you own a gun, Mr. Elliott?
-[Trevor] No.
325
00:20:49,331 --> 00:20:53,335
-[Golantz] Have you ever fired a gun?
-I was raised by a couple of ex-hippies.
326
00:20:53,418 --> 00:20:55,671
I wasn't even allowed
to have a water pistol.
327
00:20:55,754 --> 00:20:59,424
So your answer is no?
No experience with firearms?
328
00:20:59,508 --> 00:21:00,384
[Trevor] Correct.
329
00:21:01,301 --> 00:21:05,555
The People would like to enter
into evidence, People's exhibit 23.
330
00:21:10,727 --> 00:21:13,814
Now, this is Mr. Elliott's game, Nocturna.
331
00:21:14,564 --> 00:21:18,277
Now, I'm not much of a gamer,
so I want to focus on this one moment.
332
00:21:19,403 --> 00:21:22,197
[Jasmine] Take the gun. You might need it.
333
00:21:25,867 --> 00:21:28,245
This is the first time
the hero picks up a gun?
334
00:21:28,328 --> 00:21:29,162
Yes.
335
00:21:29,913 --> 00:21:33,125
The gun that would become
her primary weapon throughout the game.
336
00:21:34,459 --> 00:21:37,087
Can you tell the court
what kind of gun that is?
337
00:21:37,170 --> 00:21:38,213
What kind?
338
00:21:39,006 --> 00:21:40,882
[Golantz] The brand and caliber
of the weapon?
339
00:21:40,966 --> 00:21:42,426
Sidebar, Your Honor?
340
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:52,602
Your Honor, is my client being tried
on an Xbox or in a court of law?
341
00:21:52,686 --> 00:21:55,105
This goes directly
to the heart of the People's case.
342
00:21:55,188 --> 00:21:57,107
It's misleading and prejudicial.
343
00:21:57,190 --> 00:22:02,237
Indeed, it would be. If Mr. Golantz had
tried to enter this in his case in chief.
344
00:22:02,321 --> 00:22:04,698
But he did not.
Your client opened that door
345
00:22:04,781 --> 00:22:07,659
when he testified that he had
no experience with firearms.
346
00:22:07,743 --> 00:22:10,370
I want my objection
noted on the record for appeal.
347
00:22:10,454 --> 00:22:11,455
Noted.
348
00:22:12,873 --> 00:22:14,249
The witness may answer.
349
00:22:16,918 --> 00:22:20,839
Ah, I believe it's a Heckler & Koch,
.45 caliber.
350
00:22:20,922 --> 00:22:23,258
[Golantz] An HK .45 semi-automatic.
351
00:22:24,885 --> 00:22:26,845
That's the same gun that police believe
352
00:22:26,928 --> 00:22:29,681
was used to kill
Lara Elliott and Jan Rilz, isn't it?
353
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,935
I wouldn't know. I guess,
if that's what's on the police report.
354
00:22:34,019 --> 00:22:36,855
Did your company own
a Heckler & Koch .45 semi-automatic
355
00:22:36,938 --> 00:22:38,398
used as a model for this gun?
356
00:22:39,149 --> 00:22:39,983
No.
357
00:22:40,067 --> 00:22:42,819
So a search
of your company's business transactions
358
00:22:42,903 --> 00:22:44,821
wouldn't reveal any such purchase?
359
00:22:44,905 --> 00:22:46,365
No, it would not.
360
00:22:46,448 --> 00:22:50,535
And the fact that it was the same
exact gun, that's just a coincidence then?
361
00:22:50,619 --> 00:22:52,329
Objection. Argumentative.
362
00:22:55,749 --> 00:22:57,125
I'll withdraw the question.
363
00:22:59,086 --> 00:23:00,712
Nothing further, Your Honor.
364
00:23:03,673 --> 00:23:06,051
-[Stanton] Redirect?
-[Mickey] No, Your Honor.
365
00:23:07,636 --> 00:23:10,806
[Stanton] Very well.
Court will take a 30-minute recess.
366
00:23:10,889 --> 00:23:12,599
Then we'll hear closing arguments.
367
00:23:15,936 --> 00:23:16,895
[sighs softly]
368
00:23:27,739 --> 00:23:28,782
-[Tanya] Hey.
-Hey.
369
00:23:30,492 --> 00:23:34,287
-Mickey said all I have to do is listen.
-That's right.
370
00:23:36,540 --> 00:23:38,166
Did you go to the flower shop?
371
00:23:38,250 --> 00:23:42,546
Yes. And it led us to the man
we believe shot David Loresca.
372
00:23:42,629 --> 00:23:44,339
Then you got what you need.
373
00:23:45,090 --> 00:23:47,384
[sighs] I wish it were that simple.
374
00:23:50,011 --> 00:23:53,390
Listen, I want Angelo Soto
to pay for his crimes, Tanya.
375
00:23:53,473 --> 00:23:55,934
That's my job. I don't apologize for it.
376
00:23:56,768 --> 00:23:58,895
But there is a line that I won't cross.
377
00:23:59,688 --> 00:24:04,985
I won't force you to do something
that would put you or your baby at risk.
378
00:24:05,944 --> 00:24:08,321
-What do you mean?
-[Maggie] You have a choice.
379
00:24:08,947 --> 00:24:12,284
You can back away right now
and our case against Soto goes away,
380
00:24:12,367 --> 00:24:16,288
and you two can raise your child together,
and you'll never hear from me again.
381
00:24:17,372 --> 00:24:19,499
I don't want to raise my child with him.
382
00:24:20,208 --> 00:24:22,085
Then you can make a different choice.
383
00:24:23,336 --> 00:24:27,132
You can wear a wire, a hidden microphone,
384
00:24:27,215 --> 00:24:31,094
and you can get Angelo to confess
to ordering the murder of David Loresca.
385
00:24:33,763 --> 00:24:35,474
I promise, we'll be right outside.
386
00:24:37,934 --> 00:24:38,977
How old were you?
387
00:24:39,936 --> 00:24:42,022
-When?
-When he brought you here.
388
00:24:42,731 --> 00:24:45,942
Made you work for table scraps
until he took a liking to you. How old?
389
00:24:48,862 --> 00:24:49,905
Nineteen.
390
00:24:51,990 --> 00:24:53,033
Nineteen.
391
00:24:55,619 --> 00:24:58,121
Well, if you wanna escape
from him once and for all, Tanya,
392
00:24:58,205 --> 00:24:59,414
this is your chance.
393
00:25:02,751 --> 00:25:03,835
But it's up to you.
394
00:25:07,797 --> 00:25:09,674
Closing is about to start. Where are you?
395
00:25:09,758 --> 00:25:11,927
I'm right in the middle
of something, babe.
396
00:25:12,761 --> 00:25:14,888
-[Lorna] For the Elliott case?
-[Cisco] Kinda.
397
00:25:16,348 --> 00:25:18,141
I'll be there as soon as I can.
398
00:25:22,437 --> 00:25:23,688
You weren't lying.
399
00:25:25,690 --> 00:25:26,900
Excuse me?
400
00:25:27,484 --> 00:25:29,903
When you said you were
gonna be at the trial till the end.
401
00:25:31,988 --> 00:25:33,698
It's the least I could do for Jan.
402
00:25:34,866 --> 00:25:39,412
Carol, I'm so sorry for your loss.
I should have told you that the first day.
403
00:25:40,288 --> 00:25:44,334
Whatever happens,
I hope this brings you some peace.
404
00:25:53,885 --> 00:25:55,220
[Stanton] Mr. Golantz?
405
00:25:59,224 --> 00:26:00,392
[Golantz clears throat]
406
00:26:17,033 --> 00:26:18,118
Ladies and gentlemen.
407
00:26:19,828 --> 00:26:21,162
This case is simple.
408
00:26:22,956 --> 00:26:26,710
A man discovers that his wife is having
an affair and they have an argument.
409
00:26:27,502 --> 00:26:28,753
This is not disputed.
410
00:26:30,088 --> 00:26:32,340
Next morning,
he drives to their beach house,
411
00:26:32,424 --> 00:26:34,718
where the security cameras are turned off.
412
00:26:35,594 --> 00:26:37,304
Also not disputed.
413
00:26:37,387 --> 00:26:44,311
There, he claims he finds his wife
and her lover have been shot to death.
414
00:27:06,249 --> 00:27:10,253
Now, the defense
asks you to believe the absurd story
415
00:27:11,004 --> 00:27:13,048
that the defendant went to the house
416
00:27:13,673 --> 00:27:16,176
to surprise his wife
with a trip up the coast.
417
00:27:16,968 --> 00:27:19,512
That the gunshot residue
found on his hand,
418
00:27:19,596 --> 00:27:21,348
that didn't come from firing a gun.
419
00:27:21,431 --> 00:27:23,975
No, that came from an unwashed police car.
420
00:27:26,186 --> 00:27:30,315
That it's just a coincidence
that the killer used the identical gun
421
00:27:30,398 --> 00:27:31,900
as the hero in his video game.
422
00:27:33,276 --> 00:27:37,072
And that he was the victim
of a rush to judgment,
423
00:27:37,155 --> 00:27:42,327
despite the fact that he admits to lying
to police to hide the appearance of guilt.
424
00:27:44,454 --> 00:27:46,831
But common sense and logic will tell you
425
00:27:46,915 --> 00:27:52,045
who fired the bullets that ended the lives
of Lara Elliott and Jan Rilz that day.
426
00:27:52,128 --> 00:27:55,632
Now, you heard the defendant
testify that he loved his wife.
427
00:27:55,715 --> 00:27:58,218
What does love mean
to a man like Trevor Elliott?
428
00:28:08,895 --> 00:28:12,649
He used Lara as the model
for his video game.
429
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,568
Because that's what he wanted her to be.
430
00:28:15,652 --> 00:28:19,406
An empty shell
that he could control with a few buttons.
431
00:28:19,489 --> 00:28:23,743
He locked his wife in a gilded cage,
and when she tried to break free,
432
00:28:23,827 --> 00:28:26,454
he murdered her and her boyfriend.
433
00:28:26,538 --> 00:28:31,209
Because if Trevor Elliott couldn't
have Lara, neither could anyone else!
434
00:28:35,338 --> 00:28:39,509
Simply put, Trevor Elliott is guilty.
435
00:28:39,592 --> 00:28:44,931
If common sense and logic are your guide,
there is no other conclusion.
436
00:28:48,518 --> 00:28:49,394
Thank you.
437
00:29:00,572 --> 00:29:01,781
Mr. Haller?
438
00:29:06,703 --> 00:29:08,747
How much
do closing statements really matter?
439
00:29:08,830 --> 00:29:10,790
Hasn't the jury
already made up their mind?
440
00:29:10,874 --> 00:29:12,834
Remember, it's not a speech,
it's an argument.
441
00:29:12,917 --> 00:29:15,628
If you don't listen
to what the prosecutor is saying,
442
00:29:15,712 --> 00:29:18,256
you'll miss your chance
to take the weakest part of your case
443
00:29:18,339 --> 00:29:20,133
and turn it into your greatest strength.
444
00:29:41,070 --> 00:29:45,533
My daughter is taking algebra,
and she hates it.
445
00:29:45,617 --> 00:29:46,451
She hates it.
446
00:29:46,534 --> 00:29:48,995
She says, "Dad, why do I need this?"
447
00:29:49,078 --> 00:29:53,500
I say, "Honey, when the ancient Mayans
wanted to understand their world,
448
00:29:53,583 --> 00:29:54,667
they developed math."
449
00:29:55,293 --> 00:29:59,172
"They discovered the calendar,
365 days in a solar year."
450
00:29:59,255 --> 00:30:00,173
"Amazing, right?"
451
00:30:00,256 --> 00:30:02,926
-Didn't work. She still hates it.
-[jury chuckles]
452
00:30:03,635 --> 00:30:05,720
Anyway, why am I telling you this?
453
00:30:06,429 --> 00:30:09,098
Because we're gonna use math
to understand our world.
454
00:30:09,182 --> 00:30:14,771
Now, bear with me. Mr. Elliott's car
leaves his office at 10:44 a.m.
455
00:30:16,314 --> 00:30:20,068
At an average speed
of 35 miles per hour, right?
456
00:30:20,151 --> 00:30:25,824
So he arrives at his house
in Malibu, which is 21.2 miles away
457
00:30:26,658 --> 00:30:28,785
in 36 minutes.
458
00:30:28,868 --> 00:30:30,161
That is undisputed.
459
00:30:31,663 --> 00:30:32,664
So, he arrives…
460
00:30:34,833 --> 00:30:39,170
at 11:20 a.m.
and calls 911 five minutes later
461
00:30:40,505 --> 00:30:43,007
at 11:25 a.m.
462
00:30:44,717 --> 00:30:48,596
Now, this call triggers
the arrival of the videographer,
463
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:52,141
who begins filming Trevor Elliott
outside of his house
464
00:30:52,225 --> 00:30:58,815
at exactly 11:27 a.m.
That leaves just seven minutes.
465
00:31:01,317 --> 00:31:04,028
Seven minutes
from when Mr. Elliott arrived
466
00:31:04,112 --> 00:31:07,657
until the videographer
began filming him outside of his house.
467
00:31:07,740 --> 00:31:12,662
Seven minutes for him to commit
these crimes and cover them up.
468
00:31:14,414 --> 00:31:17,000
Now, the victims were shot
at point-blank range.
469
00:31:17,834 --> 00:31:21,254
There was no blood
on Mr. Elliott's clothes or hands.
470
00:31:22,255 --> 00:31:26,885
That means he would have had to clean up
and change before the deputies arrived.
471
00:31:28,261 --> 00:31:30,221
And that brings us to the gun.
472
00:31:30,305 --> 00:31:34,183
Now, Mr. Golantz
says that this, this cartoon weapon
473
00:31:34,267 --> 00:31:37,645
is somehow proof that Mr. Elliott
must have owned a gun like this.
474
00:31:39,063 --> 00:31:40,940
But if that's true, then where is it?
475
00:31:41,024 --> 00:31:44,611
Where is the real gun
that killed Lara Elliott and Jan Rilz?
476
00:31:45,486 --> 00:31:47,280
Where are the bloody clothes?
477
00:31:47,363 --> 00:31:49,365
Now, the beach house is on top of a hill.
478
00:31:49,449 --> 00:31:51,826
It's a ten-minute drive down to the PCH,
479
00:31:51,910 --> 00:31:56,664
and the police searched the entire area
with dogs and found nothing.
480
00:31:56,748 --> 00:32:00,960
Nothing. And Mr. Golantz wants you
to believe that in seven minutes,
481
00:32:01,044 --> 00:32:06,049
seven minutes, Mr. Elliott shot his wife
and her lover, cleaned up,
482
00:32:06,132 --> 00:32:09,761
and disposed of the evidence
where the police could never find it.
483
00:32:09,844 --> 00:32:12,722
It's impossible.
And that is what math tells us.
484
00:32:13,723 --> 00:32:17,226
It tells us that Mr. Elliott didn't do it,
485
00:32:18,269 --> 00:32:23,024
and the real killer, whoever he was,
took the evidence with him.
486
00:32:23,733 --> 00:32:27,028
So, who else had a motive
to kill Jan Rilz and Lara Elliott?
487
00:32:27,987 --> 00:32:33,451
Who did Detective Kinder ignore
as a suspect until he was put under oath?
488
00:32:33,534 --> 00:32:37,956
Who do we know carries a gun because
he told us so when he was on the stand?
489
00:32:41,501 --> 00:32:42,627
Anton Shavar.
490
00:32:44,337 --> 00:32:47,423
A jealous husband,
who, unlike Trevor Elliott,
491
00:32:47,507 --> 00:32:49,634
has a long history of violence.
492
00:32:51,594 --> 00:32:55,223
Now, Mr. Golantz asked you
to use common sense and logic,
493
00:32:55,306 --> 00:32:56,641
and I couldn't agree more.
494
00:32:58,768 --> 00:33:03,231
But don't let yourself be manipulated
by cheap, emotional tricks.
495
00:33:03,314 --> 00:33:05,566
With common sense and logic as your guide,
496
00:33:05,650 --> 00:33:11,030
you will find that Mr. Elliott could not
possibly have committed these crimes.
497
00:33:12,490 --> 00:33:17,537
And I am confident that you
will return a verdict of not guilty.
498
00:33:22,500 --> 00:33:23,459
Thank you.
499
00:33:40,601 --> 00:33:43,604
-I talked to Tanya. [clears throat]
-[Maggie] And?
500
00:33:43,688 --> 00:33:45,106
And I don't like it, Maggie.
501
00:33:45,982 --> 00:33:47,108
But it's up to her.
502
00:33:48,026 --> 00:33:50,737
And listen, Mags,
the second you see any trouble,
503
00:33:50,820 --> 00:33:52,739
you get her out of there. All right?
504
00:33:52,822 --> 00:33:55,158
I promise. And Mickey, thank you.
505
00:34:07,795 --> 00:34:08,755
[cell phone chimes]
506
00:34:13,426 --> 00:34:17,722
[Cisco] Trevor's story
about Sergei Kosevich, it's bullshit.
507
00:34:17,805 --> 00:34:20,933
-[Mickey] Based on what?
-Corporate records of Trevor's company.
508
00:34:21,642 --> 00:34:25,605
Turns out the investors are legit.
Usual venture capital crowd.
509
00:34:25,688 --> 00:34:29,025
Well, that's because
Kosevich is a silent partner.
510
00:34:29,776 --> 00:34:31,944
Trevor would never admit
he was funded by a thug.
511
00:34:32,028 --> 00:34:35,490
[Cisco] I thought so, too.
So I went straight to the source.
512
00:34:35,573 --> 00:34:37,658
Kosevich's son, Pavel.
513
00:34:37,742 --> 00:34:42,121
-That's Trevor's roommate at Stanford.
-Took me a while to reach him.
514
00:34:42,205 --> 00:34:45,124
And the minute I mentioned Trevor,
the guy hung up on me.
515
00:34:45,208 --> 00:34:47,627
-Which proves nothing.
-Yes, and no.
516
00:34:47,710 --> 00:34:50,213
Turns out there was
a third roommate at Stanford.
517
00:34:50,296 --> 00:34:54,801
Ben Hoffman.
He's the CTO of Pavel's company.
518
00:34:55,593 --> 00:34:57,428
Him, I got through to.
519
00:34:58,054 --> 00:35:00,890
He says Pavel hated Trevor's guts,
520
00:35:00,973 --> 00:35:04,352
and that his dad was never
gonna finance anything of Trevor's.
521
00:35:04,435 --> 00:35:07,230
-Still, it doesn't prove anything.
-Maybe not.
522
00:35:08,731 --> 00:35:13,778
But Trevor took the stand
when the case was already won.
523
00:35:13,861 --> 00:35:15,988
Now, would he actually do that
524
00:35:16,072 --> 00:35:19,909
if he had a Russian mobster
holding a gun to his head?
525
00:35:22,537 --> 00:35:23,579
[Mickey sighs]
526
00:35:24,372 --> 00:35:26,082
You don't let anything go, do you?
527
00:35:26,165 --> 00:35:29,544
Yeah, well, you didn't hire me
just to tell you what you wanna hear.
528
00:35:30,294 --> 00:35:36,175
The question is, if it's not the Russians,
then who the fuck has been following you?
529
00:35:37,635 --> 00:35:38,970
[cell phone ringing]
530
00:35:43,808 --> 00:35:45,476
Mickey Haller.
531
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,395
Yes, I'll be right there. Thank you.
532
00:35:50,064 --> 00:35:51,023
Jury's back.
533
00:35:56,946 --> 00:35:59,907
-Has the jury reached a verdict?
-[juror] We have, Your Honor.
534
00:36:24,807 --> 00:36:26,559
[Stanton] The defendant will stand.
535
00:36:33,399 --> 00:36:34,650
You may read the verdict.
536
00:36:37,904 --> 00:36:40,698
"In the matter of the
State of California vs. Trevor Elliott,
537
00:36:40,781 --> 00:36:43,701
on the charge
of first-degree murder of Jan Rilz,
538
00:36:43,784 --> 00:36:46,579
we find the defendant not guilty."

00:36:49,373 --> 00:36:50,374
No.

[juror] "On the charge
of first-degree murder of Lara Elliott,
542
00:36:57,340 --> 00:36:59,300
we find the defendant not guilty."

544
00:37:07,183 --> 00:37:09,101
[Stanton] Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury,
545
00:37:09,185 --> 00:37:12,396
I want to thank you
for your service and deliberation.
546
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,649
Mr. Elliott, you're free to go.
547
00:37:14,732 --> 00:37:16,108

[Lorna speaks Spanish]

00:38:07,159 --> 00:38:10,871
[in English] We have champagne and
sparkling grape juice for you and Izzy.
552
00:38:10,955 --> 00:38:14,500
[Mickey] You guys celebrate.
I've got somewhere I have to go.
553
00:38:14,583 --> 00:38:17,545
Mick? Are you sure you're okay?
554
00:38:18,379 --> 00:38:19,380
I will be.
555
00:38:27,722 --> 00:38:28,723
What is this?
556
00:38:30,599 --> 00:38:32,518
I already signed my plea deal.
557
00:38:33,394 --> 00:38:37,315
It's an affidavit, signed by me.
558
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:40,609
You were right, Eli.
559
00:38:41,777 --> 00:38:43,154
Jerry dumped you here
560
00:38:44,071 --> 00:38:45,197
and did it to hide evidence
561
00:38:45,281 --> 00:38:47,908
from the prosecution
on the Trevor Elliott case.
562
00:38:49,118 --> 00:38:51,954
You were collateral damage.
563
00:38:53,247 --> 00:38:54,874
And why are you doing this?
564
00:38:59,879 --> 00:39:04,175
Well, because you lost
six months of your life here,
565
00:39:04,258 --> 00:39:06,635
so Jerry could--
566
00:39:07,595 --> 00:39:11,098
So I could win a case, and it's not right.
567
00:39:13,059 --> 00:39:15,269
This is going to give me
my six months back?
568
00:39:15,353 --> 00:39:18,814
No, but you can use it
to sue Jerry Vincent's estate.
569
00:39:19,732 --> 00:39:21,484
He had malpractice insurance.
570
00:39:22,234 --> 00:39:25,780
That money can help you get back
on your feet once you're out of prison.
571
00:39:27,073 --> 00:39:29,950
And here I thought
all you lawyers stuck together.
572
00:39:30,034 --> 00:39:32,620
[Mickey] There's a lot of things
I would do to win a case.
573
00:39:32,703 --> 00:39:38,876
I will walk right up to the line,
but I won't sell out a client, ever.

[indistinct chatter on TV]

00:39:47,051 --> 00:39:48,844
Look who's on the TV news.
576
00:39:49,762 --> 00:39:53,015
I do wanna say something to the LAPD.
577
00:39:54,392 --> 00:39:58,062
Do your job. Lara's killer's out there.
578
00:39:58,145 --> 00:40:00,815
I'm not gonna rest
until they're brought to justice.
579
00:40:00,898 --> 00:40:02,983
[Eli] Kinda worked out
for you though, didn't it?
580
00:40:03,776 --> 00:40:05,444
Jerry did all the dirty work.
581
00:40:05,528 --> 00:40:07,446
[Trevor] Lara was the love of my life…
582
00:40:08,489 --> 00:40:09,990
You got all the glory.
583
00:40:11,158 --> 00:40:13,744
[Trevor] And I will continue
to work tirelessly
584
00:40:13,828 --> 00:40:16,414
to celebrate her memory. Thank you.
585
00:40:20,084 --> 00:40:23,295
Cisco, you know those records
you found on Parallax?
586
00:40:23,379 --> 00:40:25,464
I need you to find something else for me.

What happened?

00:41:04,378 --> 00:41:06,297
I thought they got to you too.
594
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:09,133
[in English] Who?
595

Angelo, you're scaring me.

-What?
-It's just a weak signal.

I'm sorry, I'm just upset.
Someone has been talking to the police.
602
00:41:27,693 --> 00:41:30,237
They questioned an employee,
he told me what they said.
603
00:41:30,321 --> 00:41:35,034
But couldn't he be the one lying to you?
604
00:41:39,538 --> 00:41:43,083
[in Tagalog] I'm surrounded by snakes!
605
00:41:44,877 --> 00:41:48,464
[in English] Angelo, it's okay.
It's okay. Come here.
606
00:41:50,674 --> 00:41:52,801
[Angelo] Don't believe anything
you hear about me.
607
00:41:52,885 --> 00:41:53,761
Anything?
608
00:41:53,844 --> 00:41:55,262
-[Angelo] I'm a good person.
-Yeah.
609
00:41:55,346 --> 00:41:57,848
[Angelo] All I've done
is give people better lives.
610
00:41:57,932 --> 00:41:59,058
She's got him talking.

How is my life better?

00:42:06,565 --> 00:42:07,566

-Oh, shit.
-What?

-[Angelo] I've given you everything.
-Girl's improvising.
615
00:42:12,988 --> 00:42:15,324
[Angelo] Everything I do
is for us, our family.
616
00:42:17,785 --> 00:42:21,497
People think you killed that man. Did you?
617
00:42:21,580 --> 00:42:23,207
-Don't ask me that.
-I need to know.

00:42:24,416 --> 00:42:26,710
I can handle anything as long as I know.
620
00:42:26,794 --> 00:42:28,420
-I did what I had to--
-Did you?
621
00:42:28,504 --> 00:42:30,756
Yes, I did it, Tanya!
I did it to protect us!
622
00:42:30,839 --> 00:42:33,425
To protect our baby! Now, enough!
623
00:42:36,011 --> 00:42:40,307
It's okay, it's okay. You did it for us.
624
00:42:45,145 --> 00:42:46,480
No. No.
625
00:42:48,274 --> 00:42:50,150
The police said someone betrayed me.
626
00:42:52,653 --> 00:42:56,156
-What if it's you?
-Why would I talk to the police?
627
00:42:56,240 --> 00:42:57,741
I don't know anything.
628
00:42:59,201 --> 00:43:00,661
You do now.
629
00:43:12,089 --> 00:43:13,632
Angelo, please.
630
00:43:17,428 --> 00:43:22,725
[in Tagalog] Have you done this before?
Or do you need to pay someone to do it?

[Lankford] Angelo Soto,
you're under arrest.
637

Turn around, get on the fucking ground,
and put your hands behind your head.

You'll never make any of this stick,
you know that, right?
641
00:43:56,508 --> 00:43:59,345
Watch me. You okay?
642
00:44:02,056 --> 00:44:03,015
You did great.
643
00:44:03,766 --> 00:44:06,518
Thank you. Okay. You're good.
644
00:44:06,602 --> 00:44:08,729
[dance music playing over speakers]
645
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,690
[woman] Mr. Haller,
I'm so glad you could make it.
646
00:44:11,774 --> 00:44:12,650
Trevor's at the bar.
647
00:44:12,733 --> 00:44:14,318
[inaudible conversation]
648
00:44:15,611 --> 00:44:17,988
I think I've got his attention, thank you.
649
00:44:18,072 --> 00:44:20,908
There you are. I was talking to
the media outside the courthouse,
650
00:44:20,991 --> 00:44:24,453
-I blinked, and you're gone.
-I told you, I'm not a celebrity lawyer.
651
00:44:24,536 --> 00:44:27,915
Come on, don't be modest.
This win puts you in a whole new league.
652
00:44:27,998 --> 00:44:29,917
You mean those guys?
653
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,461
I bet I could find
a potential client over there.
654
00:44:32,544 --> 00:44:35,172
I hope not.
Those are the ones acquiring my company.
655
00:44:35,255 --> 00:44:38,467
And I owe it all to you, Mickey. Cheers.
656
00:44:38,550 --> 00:44:41,720
It looks like we both got
what we wanted. [scoffs]
657
00:44:41,804 --> 00:44:43,681
Too bad Lara didn't.
658
00:44:45,432 --> 00:44:48,769
-What is it you think Lara wanted?
-For the truth to come out.
659
00:44:50,270 --> 00:44:55,150
Relax, Trevor. You don't just have
attorney-client privilege now,
660
00:44:55,234 --> 00:44:56,860
you've got double jeopardy too.
661
00:44:57,778 --> 00:45:00,531
No one will ever
know your secret, at least not from me.
662
00:45:02,324 --> 00:45:06,829
So the, uh, lawyer
that advertises on bus benches
663
00:45:06,912 --> 00:45:09,164
has come down here to put me in my place.
664
00:45:09,248 --> 00:45:12,376
You played me, Trevor. I don't get played.
665
00:45:12,459 --> 00:45:16,964
[sighs] I was so caught up in getting back
to the top, I forgot the first rule.
666
00:45:17,047 --> 00:45:20,175
-Which is?
-Everybody lies.
667
00:45:22,553 --> 00:45:26,265
She did all the dirty work
and you got all the glory.
668
00:45:26,348 --> 00:45:29,351
I'm sorry, Mickey. I'm just not following.
669
00:45:29,435 --> 00:45:32,146
Sonia Patel said that
Lara was a brilliant coder.
670
00:45:33,063 --> 00:45:36,066
Yet she quit her job to follow you? Why?
671
00:45:36,859 --> 00:45:38,318
Because she loved me, Mickey.
672
00:45:38,402 --> 00:45:42,072
Because she's the one who did it. Not you.
673
00:45:42,156 --> 00:45:47,244
Those hundred lines of code that changed
everything. Lara wrote them. Didn't she?
674
00:45:47,327 --> 00:45:52,624
Except she was working for Chaos Games.
So whatever she created belonged to them.
675
00:45:52,708 --> 00:45:57,004
But if you created it instead of her,
then it belonged to you.
676
00:45:57,796 --> 00:46:00,799
She was the genius, not you.
677
00:46:00,883 --> 00:46:03,635
For ten years,
she had to watch you take all the credit.
678
00:46:06,430 --> 00:46:10,017
That's quite a story.
I just have one question,
679
00:46:10,100 --> 00:46:13,061
how much blow did you do
before you got here?
680
00:46:13,729 --> 00:46:15,147
Like I said, everybody lies.
681
00:46:16,148 --> 00:46:19,151
But even the best liars
give themselves away.
682
00:46:20,319 --> 00:46:24,114
I saw it on the stand.
When Golantz asked you about Sonia.
683
00:46:24,198 --> 00:46:27,785
[woman] He rubs his legs.
It can be a sign of deception.
684
00:46:28,744 --> 00:46:31,872
The fight wasn't about Lara
wanting a divorce,
685
00:46:31,955 --> 00:46:34,041
she was gonna tell Sonia the truth.
686
00:46:35,042 --> 00:46:39,713
She was gonna go back to Chaos Games,
take back what was rightfully hers.
687
00:46:39,797 --> 00:46:41,131
And if she did that,
688
00:46:42,841 --> 00:46:44,384
all this goes away.
689
00:46:46,804 --> 00:46:49,306
And everybody finds out you're a fraud.
690
00:46:51,266 --> 00:46:52,726
You know, couple weeks ago,
691
00:46:53,477 --> 00:46:57,439
you came down to my office
to beg me for a job.
692
00:46:58,190 --> 00:47:01,735
Yeah. And you told me
that my previous attorney was good,
693
00:47:01,819 --> 00:47:04,071
but that you were better.
694
00:47:04,154 --> 00:47:07,074
And you know what, Mickey?
You're absolutely right.
695
00:47:07,157 --> 00:47:11,537
You did a fantastic job defending me.
You asked all the key questions.
696
00:47:13,413 --> 00:47:16,834
Where is the gun?
Where are the bloody clothes?
697
00:47:16,917 --> 00:47:19,920
How could he have gotten rid
of all of that in--
698
00:47:20,003 --> 00:47:23,340
What was it? Seven minutes?
699
00:47:24,967 --> 00:47:29,346
Well, you showed me how you did that too.
I was just too blind to see it at first.
700
00:47:30,973 --> 00:47:34,852
Your drone.
You know what the best part is?
701
00:47:34,935 --> 00:47:37,729
I watched you do it. We all did.
702
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:41,400
You weren't checking your emails
when the cops arrived.
703
00:47:41,483 --> 00:47:45,070
You were controlling the drone that was
carrying the gun and your clothes.
704
00:47:45,153 --> 00:47:47,197
You sent it out over the ocean
705
00:47:47,281 --> 00:47:49,575
till it sank
where no one would ever find it.
706
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,411
I gotta hand it to you, that was clever.
707
00:47:53,287 --> 00:47:58,542
If you really believe all that is true,
you must think I'm a monster.
708
00:47:59,209 --> 00:48:03,380
I'll tell you exactly what you are,
Trevor. You're an addict.
709
00:48:03,463 --> 00:48:07,009
There must be some rush
to have people think you're a genius.
710
00:48:07,843 --> 00:48:09,678
You'd do anything to chase it.
711
00:48:09,761 --> 00:48:13,807
Even take the stand
when the case was already won.
712
00:48:15,517 --> 00:48:16,810
[chuckles]
713
00:48:16,894 --> 00:48:20,564
Hey, come on. How much do you want?
714
00:48:20,647 --> 00:48:22,733
That's what this is, right?
The shakedown.
715
00:48:22,816 --> 00:48:24,484
I don't want your fucking money.
716
00:48:24,568 --> 00:48:27,654
-No?
-I wanna know who's behind it.
717
00:48:27,738 --> 00:48:32,034
The bribe, killing Jerry,
having me followed. I mean, was it you?
718
00:48:32,117 --> 00:48:33,994
Because I don't like to be a pawn.
719
00:48:34,077 --> 00:48:39,374
We're all pawns sometimes, Mickey.
Jerry kept me out of the loop.
720
00:48:39,458 --> 00:48:42,544
Honestly, I have no idea who killed him.
721
00:48:42,628 --> 00:48:46,673
Frankly… I don't care.
722
00:48:51,261 --> 00:48:55,807
You know, I didn't understand why
Jerry left me his cases, and now I do.
723
00:48:57,935 --> 00:48:59,728
He thought we were the same.
724
00:48:59,811 --> 00:49:03,941
A lawyer who needed this so badly,
he'd go along with a bribed juror.
725
00:49:04,024 --> 00:49:06,401
You thought so too.
Until I threatened to quit.
726
00:49:06,485 --> 00:49:09,780
That's why you told me
that bullshit story about the Russians.
727
00:49:10,530 --> 00:49:11,782
I did my due diligence.
728
00:49:11,865 --> 00:49:14,952
I realized you were a man
who might need a little extra incentive.
729
00:49:15,911 --> 00:49:17,496
To believe you were innocent?
730
00:49:17,579 --> 00:49:20,832
You know, the secret
to a successful video game?
731
00:49:22,626 --> 00:49:26,505
You have to keep
the player engaged, you know?
732
00:49:26,588 --> 00:49:29,841
You have to curate their reality.
733
00:49:30,968 --> 00:49:33,220
And right now, all this…
734
00:49:35,722 --> 00:49:36,932
This is my reality.
735
00:49:39,768 --> 00:49:41,770
That's one thing you're good at, Trevor.
736
00:49:42,813 --> 00:49:44,189
Making it look real.
737
00:49:59,329 --> 00:50:01,123
[cell phone ringing]
738
00:50:01,206 --> 00:50:03,875
I don't wanna hear
anything else about Trevor Elliott.
739
00:50:03,959 --> 00:50:08,880
Well, then you're in luck. Glory Days
is flying in tomorrow to see Raj.
740
00:50:08,964 --> 00:50:10,340
You want me to go meet her?
741
00:50:11,258 --> 00:50:14,511
Ah, no, just text me the details.
I'll handle it.
742
00:50:14,594 --> 00:50:18,473
-Good job, Cisco.
-No biggie. And Mick?
743
00:50:18,557 --> 00:50:20,892
-Yeah?
-Take the win.
744
00:50:21,935 --> 00:50:23,562
Hell of a thing you did today.
745
00:50:23,645 --> 00:50:25,105
[sighs]
746
00:50:29,818 --> 00:50:31,403
[cell phone ringing]
747
00:50:31,486 --> 00:50:34,489
-What is it, Cisco?
-[man] Is this Michael Haller?
748
00:50:35,657 --> 00:50:36,825
Who's this?
749
00:50:38,076 --> 00:50:41,747
This is officer Anthony Reyes,
LAPD, Valley traffic division.
750
00:50:41,830 --> 00:50:42,914
How can I help you?
751
00:50:43,790 --> 00:50:47,461
I don't know, sir, we pulled over
Izzy Letts at Griffith Park Overlook
752
00:50:47,544 --> 00:50:48,795
on suspicion of DUI.
753
00:50:48,879 --> 00:50:51,548
She gave me your card
and asked me to call her lawyer,
754
00:50:51,631 --> 00:50:53,050
then she kinda passed out.
755
00:50:54,593 --> 00:50:59,014
I was about to go off duty, but I'm gonna
have to impound her car, book her unless…
756
00:50:59,097 --> 00:51:00,599
If you can get here quickly.
757
00:51:00,682 --> 00:51:04,061
Just give me 15 minutes,
I'm on my way, all right? Thank you.
758
00:51:04,811 --> 00:51:06,772
[car tires screech]
759
00:51:40,514 --> 00:51:41,598
[Mickey] Izzy!
760
00:51:55,403 --> 00:51:57,447
[Trevor] You should have
just gone along with it.
761
00:51:58,073 --> 00:51:59,449
You and Vincent.
