"I guess it was the straw that broke the camel's back." "Sometimes that's the way it feels, you know?" "You feel like a second-class citizen, and especially in a town like Pocatello," " 'cause it's so small." " In a town that small, was it easy to find another wedding planner?" "(Laughs) No." "There are only three." "Maybe-maybe five or six, if you count nearby towns." " They were all booked." " DIANE:" "And if Ms. Dahl had simply told you she was booked?" "TODD:" "I would have understood." "I guess that would have been a lie, but it would have hurt less." " It would have been better than the truth." " Do you feel that you have suffered economic harm due to Ms. Dahl's turning you away?" "TODD:" "Yes." "We had to go all the way to Boise to find a wedding planner." "That's 200 miles." "We had to make that drive" " four times." " Your Honor?" "Could I request a... a brief recess before we cross?" "SOLOMON:" "Well, of course." "(Gavel bangs)" "(Indistinct chatter)" "(Quietly):" "How dare you?" " I'm sorry?" " You cast my nephew" " as the lover?" " Yes, I did." "You said go for the jugular." "TODD:" "Hey, Uncle Reese." "Hi, buddy." "Will you follow me, please?" "Hey." "How did you know how to change the metadata?" "I had a friend show me." "But you did it alone?" "Yeah, but he knew I was doing it." " And nobody else knew anything about it?" " Just him." "Do I need to contain this?" "That's an understatement." "♪ ♪" "Whoa." "Where are you off to?" "Uh, have you seen Howell?" "I thought he was still here." " Who?" " Howell..." "The guy who works on the computer." "Oh, yeah." "Wiley pulled him out for something." "They're in the conference room together." "(Indistinct conversation nearby)" "♪ ♪" "Did you not believe me when I told you I loved my nephew?" "No, I did." "That's why I approached him." "I'm not paying you to stage a family therapy session." "I'm not paying you to use my relative." "I didn't use him... he wanted to participate." " I'm paying you to act professionally..." " You told me to go for the jugular." "You told me to get personal." "This is more than personal;" "this is an insult, Diane." "I'm sorry, sir, but if you want to decide on gay marriage, you have to see who you're impacting, and it can't be an actor." "(Scoffs softly)" "So finish what you started." "Me, my, mo, may." "May." "May, there we go." "Very friendly reporter, dumb as an ox. (Chuckles)" "Just keep your answers to single syllables and you should be fine." "(Clears throat)" " Mrs. Florrick, hello." " Mr. Willoughby," "I was thrilled when Josh told me you said yes." "I was, too." "I voted for you, ma'am." " Unless I shouldn't say that." " Oh, well, I won't tell anyone." "(Laughs)" "Good." "I like secrets and things of that elk." " Ilk?" " No, elk." "Things of that elk." "Well... (Clears throat) shall we get started?" "Were Alicia and Mr. Gardner close?" " Absolutely." " Interesting that you're calling her Alicia and him Mr. Gardner." "Are you trying to manufacture some distance" " between them, Eli?" " No, Kim," "I'm trying to give you a sense of the reality." "WILLOUGHBY:" "Ah." "So you did have a relationship with Mr. Gardner?" "Well, it depends on how you define "relationship."" " As in relating to other people." " KIM:" "This is about" " Petra Moritz?" "Seriously?" " No, it's not about Petra per se." "It's about a journalistic culture that increasingly kicks sand" " over ethical boundaries..." " Petra has these e-mails?" "Yes." "Of course, Petra wants to go with this story tomorrow, so if you wanted to scoop her, you'd have to get something out tonight." "WILLOUGHBY:" "So...  if there was nothing going on between you and your boss, how do you explain these e-mails?" "I'm embarrassed to admit it, but it was... a flirtation." "An innocent one, but a wrong one." "I was having difficulties with my husband at that point, and" "I was carried away." "I-I wish that I hadn't, but I'm deeply embarrassed." "But were you having difficulties with your husband at that point?" "Yes, that's right, I was... having difficulties." "And were you embarrassed?" "And I was embarrassed." "Um..." "I hate to admit it." "Let's talk about your relationship with Mr. Gardner." "(Quiet sigh)" " Hey." " What's going on?" "What did Wiley ask you?" "He asked about the metadata, but I lied" " for you." " Howell, I told you to tell the truth." "Don't worry, he believed me." "I told him we stumbled on the metadata while I was fixing tickets for you in the Chicago PD traffic system." " What?" " Speeding tickets." "It's something I actually do." "I-I told him I fixed two tickets for you." "You had four, but I fixed two to keep up appearances." "Howell, I don't have four speeding tickets." " I-I..." "I don't even have two." " I will make it look like you do." "Don't worry so much." "Okay, look, uh... just tell me everything that you said, okay?" "All right." "PARTRIDGE:" "Mr. Andersen." "Aren't you and your husband just picking" " a fight here?" " Objection, badgering," " inflammatory." " Try it again, Mr. Partridge." "Did you have an ulterior motive in bringing suit against Ms. Dahl?" "Did I have an ulterior motive?" "I guess what I'm asking is, were you really so offended by what she did" " or did you see this as a test case?" " Objection." "It's a fair question, Counselor." " A test?" " A case that would allow you to change the law in your favor." "Isn't that, in fact, why you" " brought this case?" " No." "I'm in love." "That's the only reason I'm doing any of this, by the way." "I'm in love." "Nothing further." "I have something further." "Why doesn't anyone ever ask me what I believe?" "They take it for granted I'm not a Christian, but" "I am." "I believe in God, too." "Am I proud of my wife?" "More than you can imagine, Petra." "Winning an election in Chicago is... difficult." "But winning an election in Chicago with your integrity still intact..." "Well, that's practically a miracle." " And Alicia Florrick has kept hers?" " Always." "Governor, was your wife sleeping with her boss," "Will Gardner?" "Oh, well, I..." "I can't answer that question." "Because you don't want to?" "No, no." "Because I can't confirm what you're asking." "Just like, listen, I can't confirm that she was ever at a Neil Young concert." "I can only confirm what my wife has told me, which is she did not have an affair" " with Mr. Gardner." " Governor, we have copies of e-mails between your wife and Mr. Gardner." "Which I'm sure you'd love to take as evidence of a scandalous office romance." "But as my wife told the reporter" "Ted Willoughby, they are simply an artifact of a flirtation, not of an affair." "I'm sorry, what?" "As she told the reporter Ted Willoughby of Channel 8 just a few hours ago, those e-mails were part of an unfortunate flirtation." "That's it." "Well, uh, surely the-the... the-the language in-in these e-mails is not, uh, everyday talk between a superior and-and" " subordinate." " Well, that's a picture you seem intent on painting." "I guess what my chief of staff" "Eli Gold said to Kim Masters in their interview is true." " You're out to get her." " No, I-I-I..." "I am just trying to reveal the truth," " Governor, and..." " Look, Petra, you've been trying to nail Alicia for the last three years." " Governor..." " You have a grudge against her." "You do." "I mean, if you look at any of your interviews with her..." "Okay, thank you, thank you." "I think we have what we need here." " Okay." "We're good?" " Yes, and thank you for... coming down." "Oh, no, thank you." "I think that went well." "Hey, thank you." "Good to see you." "Okay, thank you." "ANDREW:" "Speeding tickets?" "How many?" "Uh, four." "Uh, there were four, but he only fixed two for me..." "I paid for the other two." "Just to keep it kosher?" "Yeah." "Where'd you get 'em?" "Two in the Loop and one on the way back from Springfield." "The other on the, uh, South Side." "That's exactly what Howell said." "Almost word for word." "I got to go." "There's a puppet show at the library." "One last thing, Kalinda." "You're caught." "You faked the metadata." "The longer it takes for you to admit it, the worse it's gonna be for you and Diane." "So, I mean, I hate to say this, 'cause I like you, but... if I were you, I'd come clean." "Come on." "(Door opens, closes)" "Well, you've given this old con law professor a lot to think about." "On the one hand, people have the right to their religious views, and they cannot and should not be barred from the marketplace because of them." "On the other hand, every citizen has the right not to be discriminated against on the basis of their race, their color, their nationality, and yes, their sexual orientation." "Well, given all that, my task is difficult but clear:" "I must weigh whether or not a religious accommodation would frustrate the core purpose of antidiscrimination law." "And in this case..." "I find that it would." "Accordingly, I must rule in favor of the plaintiffs," "Mr. Taylor and Mr. Andersen." "Very well done." "Diane." "Can I ask you something?" "What do you think would happen if every case were adjudicated by someone with a family member or loved one who'd be affected by the decision?" "Ultimately, perhaps every case is." "But isn't the law supposed to be impersonal?" "In the sense that it should be the same for everyone?" "You know, otherwise we're in China, right?" "Everything's determined by who you know." "The law is supposed to be fair." "Not impersonal." "In fact, I would argue that the law is always personal." "It has to see the human side, too." "Or else it's meaningless." "Hmm." "You're gonna fund this defense anyway, aren't you?" "The wedding planner?" "Yes." "Why?" "Three years ago, Barack Obama was against gay marriage." "So was Bill Clinton." "So was Hillary." "You know, b-basically every Democratic icon was lined up against gay marriage." "Now they're not." "You know?" "Because it's politically expedient for them not to be." "Who knows what they're gonna be for or against in another three years, right?" "I like people who stand by their opinions." "I like people who stand by their beliefs." "And I think a religious accommodation must be made for people who do that." "You know?" "It's the right thing to do." "PETRA:" "And as we've discussed, you're a highly educated, very confident woman, but you walk into this law firm, full of old bulls and young tigers." "Were you nervous?" "Oh, very." " That's nice." "Very human." " Just wait." "PETRA:" "During our time together," "Mrs. Florrick talked about what she had learned as an attorney." "About the importance of being smart, creative, zealous." "But the question surfacing in recent days is this: was" "Alicia Florrick the candidate too creative, too zealous, in her pursuit of the state's attorney's office?" " What is she talking about?" " I have no idea." "I recently spoke with a Chicago election monitor, and serious accusations are being made that the voting machines in some wards registered votes for Frank Prady as votes for Alicia Florrick." " Mother of..." " PETRA:" "And that may have" " been the difference" " What?" " in the state's attorney race." " Oh." " We are all in trouble now." " PETRA:" "Was the election stolen?" "For now we don't know..."
