00:00So, you're the newest member of litigation?
00:12Newest returning member of litigation.
00:14I left and came back.
00:16And do you believe you've made a worthy contribution in the time you've been here?
00:20Since I've been back here.
00:22Yes.
00:23Yes, I do.
00:25I tried 140 cases as an ASA that makes me an asset on criminal cases.
00:29And do you have family here?
00:31In Chicago.
00:33No, I'm married to my work.
00:36And if the firm had to downsize the litigation department,
00:39tell me why we should keep you over, say, Alicia Florek.
00:44Well, I have more transactional experience.
00:46Also more billable hours, and I don't like saying it,
00:50but some partners have issues with Alicia.
00:55Hmm.
00:56And what are those?
00:57Those issues?
01:01The office she's in.
01:03It's the largest of any fourth year, and it's the only one on the 28th floor.
01:08And if the firm had to downsize,
01:10tell me why we should keep you over other fourth-year associates.
01:13I'm good.
01:19Better than, let's see, John Galtner?
01:23I'm not playing that game, Mr. Hayden.
01:26What game?
01:28Thunderdome.
01:38Lawyers only, sir.
01:40You here to see if I screw up?
01:42Just wishing you good luck, your first case back.
01:45And look at you with all your little tabs, like a good first year.
01:48Here you go.
01:52Introduction to trial law, just in case.
01:56How's this for ironies, Will?
01:58I was there at the end, now I'm here at the beginning.
02:00Good luck.
02:01Thanks, Lana.
02:02I heard you're on this.
02:02I'm looking forward to getting into it.
02:03Yeah.
02:06Good first case.
02:07He's tired.
02:09And his theory of the case is weak.
02:10Just imagine how embarrassing it'll be if you don't beat him.
02:15Okay, thanks.
02:15You can go now.
02:30That was taken during the anti-NATO demonstrations last May?
02:37Yes.
02:38And who is that there?
02:39I believe that's Tyler Beecham, the assailant.
02:42You mean the victim?
02:42Objection.
02:43Actually, both characterizations seem objectionable.
02:45Let's just leave it as Mr. Beecham.
02:47Thank you, Your Honor.
02:47Mr. Beecham is the son of my client, correct?
02:50Yes.
02:51And she's suing the city of Chicago for wrongful death.
02:53That's you shooting Mr. Beecham with a stun gun.
03:17He charged at me.
03:18He kept charging at me.
03:19The video doesn't show up.
03:20How many times did you send 40,000 volts through his body?
03:23Objection, Your Honor.
03:24The stun gun is set at 40,000, but when the probes make contact with the skin, the voltage
03:30drops to 1,400.
03:31If I remember my Harvard physics class correctly, Mr. Deerfield, I believe you're right.
03:35Sustained.
03:351,400 volts.
03:36That's much better.
03:42How many times did you jolt him with 1,400 volts?
03:49Three times.
03:50And what happened after you shot him the third time with 1,400 volts?
03:53Nothing.
03:54He wasn't moving.
03:55I radioed for medical help, but...
03:56But he died before they arrived.
03:57I radioed for medical help, but he died before he died before he died before he died before he died.
04:23Here it is.
04:25Go ahead.
04:27$800,000.
04:33Whoa.
04:35Nice sum for the first time out.
04:38I don't think I've ever seen you smile, Mr. Hayden.
04:40I smile.
04:42Good job.
04:42Let's throw it back.
04:44What?
04:44We can do better.
04:45I haven't even questioned the fiancée.
04:47Will, this is a good offer.
04:48The city doesn't like to pay on wrongful death.
04:50You won't say yes.
04:51Let me have the fiancée.
04:52She'll have the jury in tears.
04:53We can double this.
04:54Actually, it's not up to you, Mr. Hayden.
05:00You represent our creditors.
05:02As such, you can tell us not to take a case.
05:04But you can't tell us when to take an award.
05:05That's up to the client.
05:06This is how you got into this hole, placing passion over pragmatism.
05:16He came close to crossing the line there, didn't he?
05:23He did.
05:23We pushed back appropriately.
05:25So where are we?
05:27We need $60 million to get out of debt.
05:30David Lee has pulled in some receivables.
05:32Cuesta paid up.
05:34Sweeney's been good.
05:35Leaving us well on our way with $2 million.
05:38He's forcing us to sell the 27th floor.
05:42We'll be like steerage up here.
05:44I know.
05:46And yet you seem becalmed.
05:50Our landlord went bankrupt.
05:52I saw that.
05:52But somebody took over our lease.
05:54Maddie Hayward.
05:55Right.
05:56The semiconductor lady.
05:58I think I'm missing why this is good.
06:01Maddie is a new member of Emily's List.
06:04You know her.
06:06Enough.
06:07You'll talk to her?
06:08Well, it doesn't hurt to ask.
06:11You'll win this case, right?
06:12Doing my best.
06:17Help him in court.
06:18Will?
06:19He's fine.
06:20I know.
06:21He's better when he has someone to impress.
06:24John Galtner's on it.
06:25I'll tell him.
06:26No.
06:27John's been let go.
06:28When?
06:29An hour ago.
06:30The trustee made cuts.
06:33Belinda, where the hell are you?
06:34This is my fourth call.
06:35I need you on this case.
06:36You left me.
06:54Yep.
06:56You left me hanging.
06:57My lowest point.
06:59I wish I'd seen your face.
07:00Two years inside, I get out.
07:05I expect my living wife to be there.
07:10Instead, you take my money and you burn my clothes.
07:12Did you cry?
07:20Seriously.
07:21Did he make you cry?
07:26I don't remember you being such a bitch.
07:29Do you have a bad memory?
07:31Do you remember this?
07:36Do you remember this?
07:45I remember you being better at it.
07:51I remember this.
07:54I was at my kids.
08:01I was at my kids.
08:02I was at my kids.
08:03Sheryl Sandberg thinks we can have it all.
08:16Anne-Marie Savage thinks we can't have it all.
08:18All I can think is, uh, what the hell?
08:22Have you ever heard a man wonder if he could have it all?
08:27So why are we saddled with so much guilt?
08:30I have enough Catholic and Jewish guilt.
08:33Now I'm getting feminist guilt.
08:34Thank you very much.
08:37Maddie, yes?
08:40Diane, right?
08:41Right, Lockhart Gardner.
08:42I hear we're going to be neighbors.
08:43We are?
08:45Oh, that's right, of course.
08:46Uh, you're on the 28th floor.
08:4927 through the 29th.
08:50Wow.
08:51Well, we will be right above and below you,
08:53so if you ever want to borrow a cup of sugar.
08:55Nice meeting you.
08:57Actually, uh, Maddie, maybe we could talk sometime.
09:00I hate to mention this, but, uh, you're our new landlord,
09:03and we would love to discuss some relief on a new payment schedule.
09:07I'm on my way to another meeting right now,
09:09but why don't you put together a proposal and give my team a call,
09:12because that's really who you should be speaking to on this.
09:15Wonderful speech.
09:16Oh, you have someone working at your firm, uh, that I read about.
09:23Someone in litigation?
09:24Yes, Will Gardner.
09:25No, that, uh, woman that stood by her husband.
09:29Alicia Florek.
09:30Yes, she's a fourth-year associate.
09:32Hmm.
09:32I read an interview with her.
09:33Yes, actually, she's on the reorganization committee.
09:36Great.
09:37Have her call.
09:46Would you like to take a moment?
09:49He wasn't even protesting.
09:52He just came down to see me.
09:54I was the true believer, not Tyler.
09:56He proposed to you?
09:57Yes.
09:57A month earlier, we were hoping to get married in August.
10:00And this was the last time you saw him?
10:02Yes.
10:06I just wanted to hold him one last time.
10:13Nothing further, Anna.
10:14Oh, God.
10:16Mr. Deerfield, any questions?
10:19No questions, Your Honor.
10:21Where's John?
10:22He got laid off.
10:23Ms. Schweikert, you are excused.
10:25And, uh, why don't we reconvene tomorrow at nine?
10:30I have my Harvard Alumni Association meeting, and I'm sure you all...
10:35Attorneys, please approach the bench.
10:38Ms. Schweikert, may I have you remain on the witness stand?
10:41I'm sure you're all familiar with Illinois Supreme Court Rule 243, which took effect last July.
10:51Refresh my memory.
10:52Well, we haven't had a chance to exercise it until now.
10:55The court may permit jurors in civil cases to submit written questions directed at witnesses.
11:00I receive just such a question now from the jury.
11:03Now, the rule requires that I ask if you have any objections.
11:07I do, Your Honor.
11:08I've designed my case to lead the jury to a certain conclusion.
11:11If we start allowing them to take us on flights of fancy.
11:14Well, I'm inclined to overrule, Mr. Deerfield.
11:16As my civil procedure professor at Harvard used to say, you can never have too many nights in the quest for justice.
11:23Step back, please.
11:26What do you think?
11:27It might be good.
11:28It'll give us insight into the jury's thinking.
11:30Ms. Schweikert, we have one additional question, and this one is from the jury.
11:35Are you ready?
11:36I am, sir.
11:36Why weren't you wearing your engagement ring on the day of the protest?
11:42Excuse me, Your Honor.
11:43I'm very happy that the jury is participating.
11:46We welcome that.
11:47But I believe this question brings up facts not in evidence.
11:51Yes, I thought so, too.
11:53But there's a parenthetical here.
11:55My question is based on the two photos.
11:57I think the juror is commenting on the ring there and not there.
12:04And the fact Ms. Schweikert is wearing it now.
12:06So I'll overrule that objection.
12:09Ms. Schweikert, do you need me to repeat the question?
12:11No, Your Honor.
12:15I don't know.
12:17Permission to redirect, Your Honor?
12:19Granted.
12:20Brianna, isn't it true that you simply left your ring at home that day so as not to risk it getting stolen?
12:25Objection. Leading the witness.
12:26And poorly at that.
12:27Sustained.
12:29Sorry, Your Honor. I'll rephrase.
12:31Brianna, do you remember why you didn't wear your ring that day?
12:36Yes, because I was afraid it might get stolen.
12:39Or lost.
12:42Thank you. No further questions.
12:43What the hell was that if suddenly got Columbo on the jury?
12:46Glinda, where are you? We've got a problem.
12:48So you broke off the engagement?
13:06At the protest?
13:08I'm so sorry. I should have told you, but I thought it would have looked bad.
13:12Well, she did it. She broke it off.
13:18Damn.
13:18So, where does that leave us?
13:20We lost our sympathy component.
13:22And possibly the sympathy of the jury.
13:25And the offer on the table.
13:27I don't think it's been undercut.
13:28Well, then let's wrap this up before it is undercut.
13:32Mrs. Florek, do you have a minute?
13:33Actually, Alicia, I need a second, too.
13:37I'll be right with you.
13:39You're familiar with the lease relief portion of our bankruptcy plan?
13:43Yes.
13:44We need you to present it to our new landlord.
13:47You want me to?
13:49Yes. Do you know Maddie Hayward?
13:51No. I mean, by name.
13:53She bought the building.
13:54She moved half her semiconductor business here,
13:56and we want you to present our restructuring proposal to her.
13:59Without you?
14:00Yes.
14:01Just to give it the personal touch.
14:06Where the hell were you?
14:08Hi, Will.
14:09Five calls.
14:10Two yourself.
14:11Are you not even checking?
14:12Um, I have been busy.
14:14What do you need?
14:15I have a rogue juror out there
14:17who seems to know some background information on the case.
14:21Which case?
14:23Kalinda, what is going on?
14:24Nothing.
14:27Look, I was gone, but now I'm back.
14:29The police.
14:30Wrongful death suit.
14:32I need you to sit down with Carrie
14:33and find out whether we can excuse this juror.
14:36Did he or she lie during voir dire about knowing our clients?
14:40All right.
14:41Kalinda, this matters.
14:44We work for the trustee now,
14:46and I am out on a limb here.
14:49Okay, look.
14:50I'm on it.
14:51Okay.
14:51Okay.
14:51Okay.
14:52Okay.
14:52Okay.
14:53Okay.
14:53Okay.
14:53Okay.
14:53Okay.
14:53Okay.
14:54Okay.
14:54Okay.
14:55Okay.
14:55Okay.
14:55Okay.
14:56Okay.
14:56Okay.
14:57Okay.
14:58Okay.
14:59Yes?
15:02Tonight, I'm going to pick you up.
15:16You worked with Allison Sabock in mergers and acquisitions?
15:22Yes.
15:23How was she?
15:27Great.
15:28Really good.
15:28Why?
15:29There were some tensions last year over the Sweeney proxy fight.
15:33Yes.
15:34Well, that was just about who would take the case.
15:37Huh.
15:39We settled that.
15:41Everything turned out great.
15:42And she's very nice.
15:44Hmm.
15:45It's an overpopulated department.
15:47Yes, I know.
15:48I mean, I don't, I don't know if that's true.
15:51Mrs. Florek, we're in an over full lifeboat.
15:55I have to trim mergers and acquisitions, and I'm asking your opinion.
15:59I like Allison Sabock, and I don't know anyone else in that department.
16:09What does he want?
16:10I don't know.
16:12There seems to be a therapy couch in my office these days.
16:14What's up?
16:15Your new client, the tow truck, my brother.
16:18Yes, he is coming in with incorporation papers today.
16:20Could you sit in?
16:20I think he wants to go over options.
16:22He's my husband.
16:30Huh.
16:31Yeah.
16:37I, uh, did you send him to us?
16:39No.
16:40God, no.
16:41He, look, he brought his business here because I work here.
16:45He's trying to throw down roots in Chicago.
16:47Uh, I don't want him to.
16:50Was he the voice on the phone?
16:51No, that was the man that works for him.
16:52Is he dangerous, your husband?
16:54I don't know.
16:55You said he was.
16:56He was, but...
16:59Okay.
17:00So, I should drop the case.
17:02You should.
17:05Thanks.
17:06Yep, I'm exhausted.
17:12And it's not even noon.
17:14Dr. Joseph Ladera, I'm a licensed medical examiner with 15 years experience at the Dayton Crime Lab.
17:19And where did you receive your doctorate?
17:21Harvard.
17:22Really?
17:23What year?
17:241985, 1989.
17:261983.
17:27It's good to have a Harvard man here.
17:28I'm surrounded by Georgetown Philistines.
17:31Welcome.
17:32Now, the defendant, Officer Malin, testified that he pepper sprayed the victim before turning to a stun gun.
17:39Why is that problematic?
17:41Pepper spray, oleoresin capsicum, can inhibit a subject's breathing by causing the throat to constrict...
17:47Jurors number three, six, and eleven wrote something down so far, but I can't tell if it's just notes or a question.
17:54So, you're already gasping for breath when you're hit with an electric shock which compromises your system?
18:00Correct.
18:00It'd be like having the wind knocked out of you, literally.
18:03And what about three electrical shocks?
18:06That would compound the danger exponentially.
18:08So, Dr. Ladera, the use of a stun gun three times after the subject has already been pepper sprayed, wouldn't that constitute excessive...
18:17Objection!
18:17I'll withdraw.
18:20Willingham Securities.
18:21Used to be the biggest in the country.
18:23Now look.
18:24As you can see, it's ready for a new tenant whenever you're ready to move in.
18:27Mrs. Floor.
18:31Ms. Hayward?
18:31Maddie.
18:32Or, uh, Ms. Hayward. I don't mind being objectified.
18:35So, we're here to discuss renegotiating your firm's lease?
18:38Yes, like a lot of other firms these days, we're having a momentary cash flow problem, and we'll be forced to lose two of our three floors...
18:45How long have you worked at Lockhart Gardner?
18:47How long?
18:48Uh, four years. This is my fourth.
18:50And you like it.
18:51I do.
18:51Do you... a lot of people ask you about standing by your husband?
19:00They do.
19:00Oh, they did. It's died down a bit.
19:02Well, he's running again, so it seems like he'll probably start up again.
19:05I think you're right.
19:07Do these questions make you uncomfortable?
19:09No.
19:10Electricity and IT are ready to go. It's all in moving condition.
19:14That's my driver.
19:15I bring him along. They think he's the buyer. I get some time alone.
19:19Um, so are you campaigning with your husband?
19:21Yes.
19:22And you agree with him politically?
19:24Enough.
19:25I can't find five people in the world I agree with politically.
19:28So, will you consider our proposal?
19:31Do you have to head off?
19:32I came right from court. Lunch break.
19:34Okay. Well, um, leave this with me, and if I have any questions...
19:38My number's right there. Cell phone number?
19:40Yes.
19:45Bye.
19:50Uh, Dr. Ladera, what is, uh, excited delirium?
19:55A condition that combines psychomotor agitation and aggressive behavior.
19:58Such as the behavior exhibited by Mr. Beecham that day?
20:03Uh, Officer Malin has testified that he just wouldn't stay down.
20:07Objection, Your Honor. Is Mr. Deerfield testifying?
20:09I'll rephrase.
20:11Uh, excited. Delirium has been linked to drug use, hasn't it?
20:16Yes, mainly stimulants, such as cocaine.
20:17So, did you perform a tox screen on Mr. Beecham as part of your autopsy?
20:22Yes. It didn't turn up any evidence of cocaine use.
20:24But isn't it true that some amphetamines are undetectable after as little as five hours?
20:28Objection. Your Honor, not in evidence.
20:30Mr. Deerfield is trying to bias the jury by implying that the victim had drugs in his system.
20:35Sustent.
20:36No further questions.
20:38Thank you, Mr. Ladera. You're excused.
20:41Whoops. Wait a minute.
20:43It seems we have another question from the jury.
20:47Who?
20:48I have no idea. I didn't see them handed to the sheriff.
20:51And, again, I must thank our jurors for participating so actively in the process, if there are no objections.
20:57So, Dr. Ladera, the question is this.
21:00Would antidepressants show up on the tox screen you performed?
21:03That's an interesting question.
21:04Depend on the type, but generally, no.
21:08We did a basic ten-point analysis.
21:10You'd have to do an expanded screen to find evidence of most antidepressants.
21:14Thank you, Doctor. You're excused.
21:16Actually, Your Honor, permission to re-examine?
21:19Doctor, I'm not letting you go just yet.
21:20Dr. Ladera, is it safe to say that the presence of antidepressants might indicate that someone was suffering from depression?
21:29It is safe.
21:30And depression can cause someone to behave in an agitated, even an aggressive fashion, can it not?
21:37Under some circumstances, I suppose.
21:45Especially if someone has recently experienced a catastrophic event, such as, for example, the breakup of an engagement.
21:52Objection beyond the scope.
21:53Overruled, but I might be inclined to sustain on the grounds of foundation regarding the antidepressants.
21:58I have no objection at this time on those grounds, Your Honor.
22:08Then I'll see counsel in my chambers.
22:10No, no, no, Mr. Gardner.
22:12You're not objecting on foundational grounds, because there is a foundation.
22:15Your Honor, we've complied with all discovery requests from the defense counsel.
22:18We've requested discovery on all the medical records.
22:21No one ever told us about the use of antidepressants.
22:23Because you requested records from the past two years.
22:26Mr. Beecham saw a psychiatrist briefly three years ago.
22:29Your Honor.
22:29The psychiatrist prescribed antidepressants.
22:31Yes, but again, we have no recent record of the victim refilling that prescription.
22:34Your Honor, this is the triumph of form over substance in the interest of justice.
22:38Mrs. Florek, Mr. Gardner, you will turn over all of this evidence.
22:42And if you find out you've withheld anything else, there'll be sanctions.
22:48What?
22:58Where are you on a settlement?
23:00Well, where are you?
23:02$800,000.
23:04Oh, you mean the offer you turned down?
23:07Mm-hmm.
23:10You gotta love the jury system.
23:18So, tell me that again.
23:29Well, again, we have reviewed our caseload and we're a little overscheduled at the moment.
23:37So, um, we have suggestions of other firms you might try.
23:41Well, you know, I'm ready to incorporate for the bit.
23:46Yes, and we're happy to have contributed to it.
23:49But, um, we're gonna have to back out now.
23:53What am I missing here?
23:55I don't know.
23:56I don't think anything.
23:57I don't think anything.
23:57I don't think anything.
24:16I don't know.
24:16Okay.
24:31Mrs. Florek.
24:46As far as we can tell, the questions were written on yellow paper, and these seven are the
25:07only ones with yellow legal pads.
25:10The written question suggests a woman.
25:12Or someone who knew Brianna.
25:14Did you run the jurors' bar?
25:15Yeah.
25:16She didn't recognize anyone.
25:17Checked their backgrounds.
25:18Couldn't find any connection to her.
25:20Any antidepressant question?
25:22Any doctors or spouses of doctors?
25:24No.
25:25Someone had a paramedic as a brother-in-law, but that's it.
25:29So we're nowhere.
25:32Here.
25:33Poirier form of juror number five, Emma Hanahan.
25:37What am I looking at?
25:39Number of children.
25:40She wrote three, crossed it out, and wrote two.
25:43It's a common error when a parent loses a child.
25:45Force of habit.
25:46The antidepressants.
25:47Suggests that she could have some personal experience with depression.
25:52Check it out.
25:53I can't get her excused, but if I know it's her, I can argue to her.
25:58Oh, we're done.
25:59How did it go?
26:00Fine.
26:01You?
26:02Alicia, do you have a minute?
26:04Yes.
26:05Later.
26:06Sorry.
26:07Things are a bit chaotic.
26:08How did it go with Maddie?
26:10Good, I think.
26:11She didn't want to talk about the lease much.
26:13Yes.
26:14Well, she's a funny one.
26:15But she seemed open to the proposal.
26:16I think.
26:17I gave her my number in case you wanted to call.
26:20Why don't you call her?
26:22Sorry, this is awful.
26:25The trustee let mergers and acquisitions go.
26:27What?
26:28He let it go?
26:30Yeah, well, not all of it.
26:32Alison Sabock.
26:33Oddly enough, not sure what she's gonna do on her own.
26:36Hi, Diane, how are you?
26:39Well, yes, money is always a concern.
26:43But we have campaign finance laws for a reason,
26:46and I'm not gonna jeopardize the campaign.
26:48Peter, I am so sorry.
26:50I have to grab you for a moment.
26:51Bobby, I will bring him right back.
26:52Come on.
26:55Eli, what are you doing?
26:57I don't know what happened.
26:58We were worried about money, then suddenly...
27:00Suddenly what?
27:01Hello, Peter.
27:02Ms. Hayward meets Peter Florek.
27:04Sayward, it's so nice to meet you.
27:06I only know you from reading forms,
27:08but I've always been a fan.
27:11I think I'm becoming a fan of yours as well.
27:12Has Eli been bending your ear?
27:14No, I've just met Eli, but your wife has.
27:17Alicia?
27:18Yes.
27:19You seem surprised.
27:20No, no, I didn't know you knew each other.
27:23Well, we just met yesterday,
27:24but I am thinking about contributing to your campaign.
27:27Really?
27:28I thought you only contributed to female candidates.
27:31I do mostly support female candidates,
27:33but, um, I like your wife.
27:37You two are separated?
27:38No.
27:39Yes.
27:40But she's supporting you.
27:41They're trying to work things out.
27:43By not sleeping with prostitutes.
27:46If I do support you, do I have to worry about that?
27:49Another prostitute, another mistress,
27:51a furtive kiss on the campaign bus?
27:54No, you don't.
27:55And why is that?
27:57Because I just told you.
27:59Peter's changed.
28:01That's why.
28:03I don't believe people can change.
28:05You know what?
28:06I didn't either.
28:08And then, of course, I went to prison.
28:10And you were his therapist.
28:14The deceased Tyler Beecham's therapist.
28:16Yes, I saw Mr. Beecham for a short time,
28:18about three years ago.
28:19He came to be suffering from nervousness
28:21and related insomnia.
28:23But not depression.
28:24Not the deep depression from a family tragedy.
28:27That's correct.
28:28He'd been laid off from his job,
28:29which caused him some mild anxiety,
28:31but in my opinion, he was not clinically depressed.
28:33And yet, you prescribed him an SSRI?
28:36Yes, but not to treat depression.
28:38Certain antidepressants are also useful
28:40for the treatment of anxiety
28:42and to help regulate sleep patterns.
28:44Thank you, Doctor.
28:45Dr. Zurovich, the specific drug
28:49that you chose to prescribe was called Elvitil?
28:54Yes, at that time, Elvitil seemed to have
28:56the best response rate for insomnia and related anxiety.
28:59At that time?
29:00You mean you no longer prescribe Elvitil?
29:02No, I don't.
29:03Why is that?
29:04Other drugs are more effective.
29:05Well, isn't it true that Elvitil is known
29:07to have numerous damaging side effects?
29:09The science on that is unclear.
29:11Really?
29:12Mr. Gardner here won a lawsuit on just those grounds.
29:15Objection, relevance.
29:16Admit it, Will.
29:17You won the case by attacking Elvitil's suicidal side effects.
29:19Your Honor, I have an objection!
29:21Your Honor, Mr. Beecham taking a drug
29:22that could alter his brain chemistry
29:24is perfectly relevant.
29:26In fact, there was a study on Elvitil's side effects
29:29at, uh, let me see.
29:31Let me see.
29:34Harvard Medical School.
29:36Really?
29:37Do you have it here?
29:38I do, Your Honor.
29:40I think I'll allow a little leeway here.
29:43Isn't it possible, Dr. Zarovich, that Elvitil's side effects
29:48were what led you to stop prescribing it?
29:50That may have been a factor.
29:51So, a person takes a drug designed to combat depression
29:55that instead intensifies that depression,
29:57leading to suicidal ideation.
30:00Isn't it possible that such a person could be driven
30:04to commit, in effect, suicide by cop
30:08right in front of a person who has wronged it?
30:10This is rank speculation.
30:11Sustained, Mr. Deerfield.
30:13Nothing further, Your Honor.
30:15Well, it appears we'll have a number of questions
30:18from the jury this time.
30:20Show the door.
30:21Show the door.
30:22Show the door.
30:23I said, shut the door.
30:51Where are you going?
31:01You are really pissing me off!
31:21I'm so stupid.
31:26Why do you hurt me?
31:32Shut up.
31:35I love you.
31:38I always will.
31:44Lie back.
31:56I love you.
32:01I love you.
32:05I love you.
32:09I love you.
32:19Where have you been, baby?
32:24Kyle Bayless?
32:37Can we talk?
32:38I didn't know Tyler that well.
32:41Brianna was the one that was really involved.
32:43Tyler was the last guy I thought get into it with a cop.
32:46The defense is saying that he behaved erratically that day, provoking the cop.
32:51Did you see anything like that?
32:52No.
32:53Dude was always pretty calm.
32:55I couldn't believe he got stickered.
32:57Stickered?
32:58What's that?
33:00Undercover cops.
33:01We're going around sticking these on your back if they thought you were a troublemaker.
33:09They called it extraction.
33:10They'd come back later and pull out all the black block anarchists.
33:14And you got that on the day of the protest?
33:17No.
33:18I wish I had.
33:19I bought this later.
33:21But Tyler, each of them got one.
33:24Yeah.
33:25On his backpack.
33:26I remember seeing it when he walked by.
33:28Can I take a picture?
33:30Yeah.
33:51Alicia, I really don't know how to thank you.
34:14For what Eli?
34:15Maddie Hayward.
34:16Getting on board.
34:17On...
34:18What are you talking about?
34:19She's supporting Peter's campaign because of you.
34:20What?
34:21I owe you.
34:24Mrs. Florek, do you have a minute?
34:27Sure.
34:28Let's go.
34:29Any thought to Amy Hampton, Gus Nathanson, and Bruce Garvin?
34:38In family law?
34:40Mm-hmm.
34:42I like all of them.
34:45That doesn't sound very genuine.
34:49I just...
34:50I feel like I've been put in an uncomfortable position, Mr. Hayden.
34:56And what position is that?
34:58Arbiter of people's fates.
35:02I am conferring with other people, Mrs. Florek.
35:05You're hardly an arbiter of anything.
35:08Of course.
35:10You're right.
35:11I'm sorry.
35:13No, that's okay.
35:14Thanks.
35:18I like them all.
35:20Um, all three people that you mentioned.
35:22I like them all.
35:25Good.
35:27Thanks.
35:28Alicia.
35:29Hi.
35:30I'm not stalking you, I promise.
35:31I had to meet a judge here, Kate Conroy, in probate.
35:32Do you know her?
35:33I don't.
35:34Well, I'm backing her for Illinois appellate court.
35:35Uh, but I know you had a case, so while I was here, I thought I...
35:36Eli told me you're backing Peter?
35:37Yes.
35:38I don't know what to say.
35:40And I hope you didn't think that I was...
35:41No, no.
35:42Not at all.
35:43No.
35:44No, no.
35:45I was...
35:46I was impressed.
35:47Speaking of which, um, this is a little bit awkward, so I'm just going to say it.
35:51Would you like to have a drink sometime?
35:53Look, Maddie, I'm flattered, really.
35:58Really.
35:59I just...
36:00I just...
36:01I just...
36:02That's okay.
36:03I don't know what to say.
36:04I don't know what to say.
36:05I don't know what to say.
36:06I don't know what to say.
36:07I don't know what to say.
36:08I don't know what to say.
36:09No, no, I'm not.
36:10I was...
36:11I was impressed.
36:12Really, I just... I'm married.
36:16Oh, um...
36:19I-I wasn't hitting on you. I'm sorry.
36:22Oh, no. Well, now it's really awkward.
36:25Oh, God, sorry. I just misunderstood.
36:27And this day, it's just been...
36:29Yes, don't worry about it. I just... Look, I hear...
36:32Well, the thing is, I don't have many friends, Alicia.
36:39There, I said it.
36:40But, uh, sometimes it's hard, um, to know if someone wants to be your friend
36:45or if they want something from you.
36:47I can imagine.
36:48So, um, I'm going to say it again.
36:53Would you like to have a drink sometime?
36:57What's so funny?
36:59I just don't remember the last time someone just approached me for a drink.
37:03And I would be delighted. How's that?
37:06Good. Good?
37:08We're talking like normal human beings.
37:10Uh, how about tomorrow night?
37:12Sounds good.
37:13Looking forward.
37:15So, officer, the protest that day, that was your first riot squad duty, wasn't it?
37:20Well, we don't actually call it the riot squad.
37:22I was assigned out of the 27th District Patrol Division.
37:25But it was your first time doing crowd control at a large-scale confrontational event.
37:30Yes.
37:30Your adrenaline was pumping.
37:31I guess so.
37:32So, tell me about the stickers, the red stickers.
37:34Objection, Your Honor. Foundation.
37:35Your Honor, undercover police officers put red stickers on troublesome protesters.
37:39They deem worthy of extraction from more peaceful protesters.
37:42You can't just feed the Foundation into the records.
37:44Which is why I'm asking the question of Officer Malin.
37:47Overruled.
37:48So, officer Malin, you saw a red sticker on Tyler Beauchamp's backpack, didn't you?
37:52No.
37:53You didn't see this?
37:54That's you right there in the video.
37:56And you didn't see it, the red sticker right there?
37:58I didn't see it.
37:59But you see it now.
38:00No.
38:02You don't see it now in this still?
38:05No.
38:05Oh, you mean on the screen there?
38:11Yeah, yeah.
38:12I see that.
38:14Good.
38:14Maybe Mr. Deerfield can clear his throat twice for yes.
38:18Unfortunately, what Mr. Beauchamp had on his backpack wasn't a red sticker.
38:22It was a happy face button.
38:24You see that there?
38:25You see the smile?
38:26Yeah, I can see that.
38:27Good.
38:28Now, let's fast forward a bit.
38:29After you pepper sprayed Terry and sent 1,400 volts through his body, and after he died,
38:34there, look, what's missing from his backpack?
38:39What isn't there anymore?
38:41I understand why you don't want to answer.
38:43The button isn't there anymore because you removed it.
38:45Objection argumentative.
38:46I'm merely asking the question.
38:47You are not.
38:48You removed the red button because you made a mistake and you were trying to cover your
38:51track.
38:51Objection.
38:51Isn't that correct?
38:52Sir Stan, he charged at me.
38:54What does it matter about the sticker?
38:56Who cares whether it's gone?
38:58It was there before.
38:59But you said you didn't see it before.
39:00Your Honor, this line of questioning should be excluded from the record.
39:05No, it shouldn't, Mr. Jayfield.
39:06No.
39:07Thank you, Your Honor.
39:09No further questions.
39:19Mrs. Florek.
39:21Mr. Hayden.
39:21Hi.
39:22I saw you dropped a client, Nick Saparese, his government contract, tow trucks.
39:26Yes.
39:27Um, I think the case had some irregularities.
39:31What irregularities?
39:32Mr. Savarese is trying to skirt the requirements of the law.
39:35Mrs. Florek, this firm is in dire straits and we need all the business we can get.
39:39So tell him you made a mistake and the firm is retaining his business.
39:42Mr. Hayden, I'm not sure that's advisable.
39:47Tell him you made a mistake and the firm is retaining his business.
39:49Yes?
39:58I talked to Maddie Hayward.
40:01She isn't going to renegotiate.
40:03She has other tenants who want to expand and she's worried about the precedent.
40:08I'm sorry.
40:09But she is giving to your husband's campaign.
40:11I know.
40:17I'm stunned.
40:20You have no idea how this happened?
40:22That she's giving to Peter's campaign, no.
40:25I talked to her about bankruptcy.
40:29She asked me about Peter.
40:31I never solicited her.
40:33We're going to have to lose the 27th floor now.
40:36I'm so sorry.
40:37Deerfield wants to talk.
40:38Good.
40:39Go bring it home.
40:40We need it.
40:422.5.
40:43More Lionel or I can call Officer Malin's partner to talk about what did he say he wanted to do at the protest?
40:48Make a mark?
40:49Right.
40:49Make a mark.
40:50I'm sure the jury will have questions about that.
40:533 million.
40:55I'll rise.
40:56Fine.
40:563.5.
40:57Judge Bernard Temple presiding.
40:59Mr. Gardner, I'll be ready to begin.
41:01Your Honor, I believe we have a settlement.
41:11Great reaction to the speech and, more importantly, the fundraising pledges.
41:18And that is even before a Maddie Hayward endorsement.
41:20Eli.
41:21You're doing a great job.
41:27You are road drunk.
41:31Well, I should thank you.
41:34What for?
41:35Talking to Maddie about me.
41:37We didn't even know she was in play.
41:39I don't even know what I did.
41:40Well, the key is, whatever you did, you did it well.
41:45Where are we headed to?
41:47Where are we heading, Eli?
41:49Home.
41:50Though we could do one more meet and greet if we were to turn back and...
41:53You!
41:53What are you two laughing at?
41:58You, Eli.
42:00We're laughing at you.
42:02That's right.
42:04King Lear's fool.
42:05That's me.
