"So, how's the campaign going?" "Really good." "We raised $6 million in hard money and $11 million in soft." "Good." " How's the job?" " Good, too." " It's like coming right out of law school." " Ah, freedom." "The best thing that can happen to anyone." "Listen, um..." "Ruth wants to have a camera crew follow you in order to play up the whole" ""helping the common man" thing."

" No to Eli." "Well, then we have a problem." "Look..." "I need Ruth." "And Ruth won't stand for Eli." "And you need me." "And I won't stand without him." " Oh, come on." " No," "Peter, you want to be Hillary's vice president." "The way to do that is by showing you have a happy family."

"Mother, photographer." "But they're not mutually exclusive in any real sense." "Even though you drew that distinction?" "(Sighs)" "I find this insulting." "I'm hardly the first artist to use my children as subjects." "Matisse, uh, Lucian Freud," "Newman, Li Zhuangping." "You'd never ask a male artist to explain himself like this."

"We have this affidavit." "Mm." "This reinforces my conclusion that Mrs. Barsetto's consent is and-and should be binding." "She was well within her parental rights to substitute her judgment for that of her children." "As a result, the preliminary injunction is lifted, the museum may reopen the exhibit immediately." " ALICIA:" "Your Honor..." " Mrs. Florrick, my decision is final." " LUCCA:" "Actually, we understand that, Your Honor." "We have another matter." "We request a separate ruling on the right of publicity." " Excuse me?" " Consent gets them the right to show the artwork, but that doesn't mean they can use the images of Erik for commercial purposes." "Our client has his own right of publicity... which means nothing in the gift shop can have Erik's image on it." "No backpacks, mouse pads, key chains..." "O'NEAL:" "We don't make a profit unless we have the gift shop revenue." "DUNAWAY:" "Okay."

"ELI:" "We'd like to put this all behind us, Frank, for Alicia's sake as much as Peter's campaign." " I think that's wise." " We're hoping you'll consider putting out a letter of support for Alicia clearing her of any wrongdoing in the election scandal." "I can do you one better." "Alicia, how would you like a post on the election board?" "Nothing will show we believe you're innocent more than a seat on the board that found you guilty."

"Uh, these are all items that will be sold in the museum store, Your Honor, most of them commercial, with no artistic value." "Like this mouse pad, for example." "CROZIER:" "Your Honor, I've often found mouse pads to be works of art." " They're tiny canvases..." " Save it." "They're out." "Though I doubt the museum's gonna lose a lot of money there."

" Big ticket item." " Are you saying that fashion" " is not art?" " This isn't fashion." "It's sold in a souvenir store." "The Supreme Court found T-shirts to be protected expressive works." "Um, the fine arts exception to the right of publicity doesn't apply if the item is used as advertisement." "Well, what is that T-shirt advertising?" " The museum."

"Judge, I don't see the relevance." " No, but I feel it coming." " Kennebago Lake is in Maine, which does not recognize a right of publicity." "DUNAWAY:" "How many of these photos of you were taken in Maine?" "All of them." "Well, that makes my job easier." "Maine law controls, the museum can sell it all." "Even the mouse pads." "LUCCA:" "But, Your Honor, you just said they were out." "You heard me: it's all in!" "What the hell was that about?" "I have no idea." "What did we do?" "JASON:" "It's not you." " He's hungry." " What do you mean?" "Ramadan." "He's been fasting all day." "So what do we do?" "Catch him in the morning." "He'll have more patience." "Thank you." "I'm sorry I didn't hire you immediately." "Hey, I'm a big believer in second chances." "What are you gonna do here?" "No idea." "The exhibit's about to open, and we're out of witnesses." "I might have someone." "Mr. Wilson, do you consider these images" " to be child pornography?" " CROZIER:" "Objection." "Your Honor, this man's opinion is not relevant." "Your Honor, Mr. Wilson is an expert in the field." " In what way?" " Mr. Wilson, were you convicted of possessing child pornography?" "." "Yes." " And were you a member of online communities where you... advised other people how..." "Yeah, I-I get the picture." "Ms. Crozier, your objection is overruled." "Illinois Evidentiary Rule 702." "He's an... expert." "ALICIA:" "Mr. Wilson, are you familiar with these photos?" "Absolutely." "My online friends and I have traded them back and forth for years." "For what purpose?" "Personal sexual gratification." "ALICIA:" "And, to your mind, are they distinctive from the photos you were convicted of possessing?" "No." "Same thing, only... better." "Your Honor, we submit that these photos are essentially child pornography, and, as such, consent doesn't matter, nor does any fine arts exception... they cannot be displayed." "This is a smear campaign." " Phyllis Barsetto..." " This is not a smear campaign." " is a well-respected artist." " This is about child porno... (Stomach growling loudly)" " No further questions." " No further questions." "(Growling continues)" "You really see no difference between, uh, child pornography and Ms. Barsetto's work?" "Well, they're artsier." "But I still... use them." "I'm from Michigan, so this is all just a little much for me." "(Stomach growling)" "Wh-What else do you use, sir, for-for the purposes of your self-gratification?" " Um, anything from a normal bookshop?" " Well, I don't really know what's in a normal bookshop these days." "I've been in prison for the last 11 years." "How about Lolita?" "No." "(Stomach growling)" "Gap Kids?" "DIANE:" "Simply donating to pro-choice candidates isn't enough anymore." "We need to think much bigger." "Is that your polite way of saying we should launch a super PAC, Diane?" "Well, it's a much more flexible structure." "HOWARD:" "Good afternoon, ladies." " Howard." " Howard Lyman." "And may I say how honored we are to be having this meeting with the leadership of Emily's World?" "Emily's List." "Of course." "So, Diane, are we gonna help these ladies kick some pro-lifer butt in 2016?" "Uh, Howard, may I have a moment?" "(Quietly):" "Cary tried to keep me out of this meeting." "I will not be sidelined." "Cary's not involved with this group." "Don't enable him, Diane." "And may I say, ladies," "I think abortion is great." "You told Howard not to attend my meeting with Emily's List, knowing he'd show up and make a fool of himself." "No." "I told him not to show up." "You two have to quit this." "Now!" "And set up a call with Abe Ehrling at The Ledger." "We need to do a story on Alicia starting her own firm, working as a bar attorney." ""Defender of the Underdog" sort of thing." "Nice try, Eli, but no." "You know voters hate defense lawyers." "They keep the bad guys out of jail." "I won't let you sabotage the campaign." " What do you want me to do?" " I control the message." "Every article, every interview goes through me." "And you're on probation." "Eli." "I'm supposed to keep tabs on you for Ms. Eastman." "Tell her everything you're doing." "(Whispers):" "Really?" "PHYLLIS:" "Titian's Venus of Urbino." "It's considered the most erotic painting of all time." "Look at the eye contact she makes with the viewer." "CROZIER:" "And it hangs in the Uffizi." "No one would claim this wasn't art." " That's correct." " But it is an adult woman, and your work depicts children." "The history of art is littered with depictions of nude children." "Angels, Greek gods," "Botticelli and most of the Renaissance artists..." "In Veronese's painting, the naked infant Jesus is even cradling his penis." "(Stomach grumbling loudly)" "(Sighs)" "You say that your work has more in common with these paintings than with pornography?" "Yes." "I'm sorry, Erik, if they caused you pain, but they're not pornography." "ALICIA:" "Your Honor, something is or isn't pornographic on its face." "720 ILCS 5/11-20, 1 says..." "That's a criminal statute." "Have criminal charges been filed?" "That's a good question." "Uh, have-have they?" " No, Your Honor." " Young man, are you intending to go down to the State's Attorney's Office and swear out a criminal complaint against your mother?" "Okay, then." "We have a ruling." "This court isn't gonna find that Mrs. Barsetto's photos are child pornography." "The injunction expires instanter." "The exhibit reopens tomorrow as planned." "Whew!" "I've got another offer." "May I ask from whom?" "No." "But they want me to be exclusive, which would mean no freelancing for you." "Are you leveraging me to get a better deal from them?" "I am." "I don't have any wiggle room, Mr. Crouse." "What are they offering you?" "More." "(Mouthing)" "Okay." "I'm stretching here, but final-final: $85 an hour." "Wow." "That will put me in the bottom third of the P.I. scale." "Take a chance." "Might be fun." "Let me think about it." "See if you can up the other offer?" "Yeah." "I'll call you." "GRACE:" "I don't get it." "Was that a yes or a no?" "It wasn't a yes." "Okay, well, let's turn to me." "Okay." "I'd like to renegotiate my salary." "(Laughs)" " You don't have a salary." " I know." "Which is why I'd like to negotiate it." "DIANE:" "You two need to make peace." "Or at the very least, stop making war." "We are not leaving this room until we figure out a way to put aside the differences and work together." "Okay." " Fine with me." " Absolutely not." "He sat me down at lunch and told me I was worthless." " I'm sure he didn't say that." " Diane, there's no common ground, okay?" "It's either him or me." "Cary goes or I do." " (Door opens) - (Door closes)" "Did he just issue the easiest ultimatum in history?" "Mr. Crouse, how are you?" "Good." "Thank you, ma'am." "So, I've got a counteroffer." "And you're wondering if I'll beat it." "Yeah." "It's $200 an hour." "Okay. $250." "But that's it." "You need to work exclusively, and, uh, I need an answer now." "Phyllis, you testified in court about how much Erik loved what he did, how much he helped you... after school, on weekends, vacations." "Some kids play sports or get a job." "But Erik didn't need a job." "He already had one... as your model." " He enjoyed it." " You don't need..." "There were no work papers filed, and our client wasn't paid anything." "You're going after child labor?" " Seriously?" " ALICIA:" "Erik worked four hours a day, five days a week per photo." "That's over 200 photos." "Throw in compounded interest," " double it all in liquidated damages..." " ERIK:" "Mom, we could've skipped all this." "We still could skip it if you'll just give me the photos." "Erik... the photos are on the Internet." "You'll never truly get back what you lost." "But this money, it can help you start the next part of your life." "("World Spins Madly On" by the Weepies playing)" "PETER:" "Ruth." "Oh, Governor." " I just got a call from Frank Landau." " Yes." "Eli went rogue." "His assistant just told me." "Landau's supporting Alicia." "No, I d..." "I don't think so." "Yes, he is." "He said that Eli arranged it." "(Chuckles softly)" " Mr. Governor, I'm..." " I think it's rather good work on Eli's part, don't you think?" "I do think." "Good." "Give him a call and tell him that." "I don't want any bad blood." "When he does well," "I want you to congratulate him;" "when you do well," "I want him to congratulate you." "Give him a call." "Willingly." "Good." "$32,000." "That's not bad for a week's worth." "$16,000." "I split it fifty-fifty with Lucca." "So let's see, $400 to Amanda," "$160 to Jason," "$80... to me." "(Doorbell rings)" "I'll get that." "Might be a new client." "I will get it." "♪ And take the time for you... ♪" " Hey." " Hey." "So... are we negotiating?" "That depends." "What do I have to beat now?" "$90 an hour." "No exclusivity." "♪ And the world... ♪" "$95 an hour, but that's it." "No more using me as a stalking horse." "Take it or leave it." "Take it."
