"Malicious prosecution... and whatever else you can throw at them." "Billy's just tried to resurrect the case in federal court under the High Seas Act." "So, while you're at it, you can draft a response to that, as well as the motion to dismiss, and we'd like it all by the end of business." " Okay." " Really?" "'Cause you look a little bit like a deer in the headlights." "It's just that..." "I've never even seen the man." "Well, it seems you're on his radar." "Which could either be very good or very bad."

"I don't see anywhere here in your pleading where you say that there was a wrongful act." "A man blew up on a boat owned by the defendant." "Res ipsa." "Something wrong happened." "It's obvious." "That's all you got?" "Something wrong happened?" " I'll just handle the federal case, too." " Fuck you, Billy." ""Fuck you" is good in traffic, but not in court, okay?" "In the real world, lawyers have to argue cases and shit." "Thank you." "Thank you for your wisdom." "Honey, I was doing this shit back when you were wondering why Ken and Barbie didn't have genitals." "I used to handle 20 cases at a time." "I think I can handle two." " Jesus Christ." " Billy?" "Talk to you for a second?" " Okay, let's have it." " Okay." " Denise was pretty shaken up." " Yeah, so was I." "She was tased, Billy." "Well, I wasn't drunk, okay?" "She could have been seriously hurt..." "Yeah?" "Well, talk to your goddamn boss about that." "You are insane, if you think that Donald Cooperman has some conspiracy against you, insane!" "Okay." "Well, let me explain something to you." "Ever since I took this case, weird shit's happening to me, okay?" "People are following me, I'm getting pulled over by the cops, having my ass beat." " You're so crazy." " Yeah?" " Let it go." " It's not happening." " No." " You can't win this." "Yeah, maybe not." "But I'm sure as shit gonna try." "And let me tell you something else." "As much as I'd like to fuck Cooperman, that's not the reason I'm in this one." "I'm actually doing this again." "So get ready for it, will you?" "I don't care why you're in this one." "Just leave our daughter out of it, okay?" "Yeah, well, I kind of was." "And then you let her, you know, get lost." "Sorry about the..." "Don't worry about it." "It's okay." "I have some unsettling and some good news." "Yeah?" "Well, give it to me." "The clerk from the federal court just called to say that the case has been dismissed." "No explanation given." "Just dismissed." "I know, it's unsettling." "Well, what's the good news?" "Your friend Alma called." "How the fuck did he get the case reinstated in state court?" "It was dead in state court." "I saw it die." " And yet it lives." " That's not an answer." "It wasn't actually dismissed with prejudice." "It got kicked because Billy didn't show up." "We refiled the motion to dismiss." "We're back in there tomorrow." "This time it will be squashed for good." "How do you know that?" "Because the Gnome has the assignment." "And Cooperman is the one that got him the appointment." "Wait." "The Gnome?" "I don't like the Gnome." "He's a loose cannon." "We are gonna be fine, Leonard." "This should be settled." "Donald Cooperman will not use our money to fight his vendetta." "That not what this is about." "I don't care what this is about." "Donald Cooperman can't let it go." "He is obsessing over Billy McBride." "And I am telling you, this thing could be fucking us up the ass." " Oof!" " Hard!" "Leonard, sweetie." "Maybe this whole general counsel gig isn't for you." "You don't seem to be having fun." "Do not handle me, Callie." "People should be happy in life, that's all I'm saying." " The Gnome." " Yeah, regardless." "And you say he's Cooperman's friend?" "Not necessarily." "Most of Cooperman's friends hate his guts." "Keller's a decent judge." "He's just a nasty little prick." "Okay, so should we survive the motion to dismiss tomorrow, we settle." " Right?" " Could be." "Let's assume for the sake of argument that you are everything you're cracked up to be." "Let's even say you show up to court tomorrow." "We are talking about one of the top three law firms in the world and then there's Born's Tech which is a fucking massive global weapons manufacturer." "Then there's us, which is not so great." "So there's windmills, and there's windmills." "So, what?" "You wanna give up?" "Yeah, they're a big deal." "So what?" "Look, part of being a lawyer is knowing when you're on to something." "And we're on to something." "All right?" "Oh, God, please don't fuck this up." "This is not me going behind Donald Cooperman's back." "I wanna be clear about that." "Well, I'm pleased to hear that, Leonard." "Because it sounded like you were." "I'm just saying the case should have settled, but Cooperman won't do it." "Wait a minute, I'm confused." "I thought it was dismissed." "It was dismissed in state court when Billy McBride failed to show." "Then he filed in federal court where Donald, to his credit, got it squashed, even without a hearing." "But then the case resurfaced in state court." "You must have had a friend in the clerk's office." "This McBride is desperate, which to me makes him dangerous." "We should throw some money at him and make this go away." "But Cooperman is too blinded by his anger to see that logic" "You know what I think?" "I think it's a small price to pay to make Donald happy." "Cooperman works for us." "He acts like it's the other way around." "Maybe it is." "Look, do you know what that guy Larson did here?" "What are you talking about?" "He worked on the Falcon class line of fuel systems for the Navy." "That's not what he did, Leonard." "What do you mean?" "Do you actually want to know what he worked on?" "Yes." "No, you don't." "If Donald Cooperman wants to carry water on this or anything else, you know what you job is?" "It's to say yes, sir." "Thank you, sir." "Will that be all, sir?" " You wanted to see me?" " I did." " You wrote a nice brief, Lucy." " Thank you." "Judge Rosten Keller is sitting." "You've heard of him?" " The Gnome?" " He's a very active gnome." "He asks a lot of questions." "I'm gonna need you there, should he want specifics on any of these cases you've cited." " Great." " He's also known to question second and third chairs." "He considers any attorney of record to be fair game." "I'm sure you can guess my concern." "Well, I've upped my dosage of Alprazolam." "Come." "Come in." "Smile." "I'm sorry?" "I asked you to smile." "Okay, please show me you can do better than that." "There you go." "I want you to feel that smile between now and tomorrow, in the hopes that it might beget self-confidence." "Judge Keller preys on the weak." "I don't want him looking at you and smelling blood." "I expect poise and strength." "I won't let you down." "And should Judge Keller call on you to speak," "I expect you not to stutter." "[knocking on window]" " Is everything okay?" " Yeah." "What's up?" "Uh, I was just wondering, would you wanna go grab coffee with me sometime?" "Oh, sweetie." "[whimpers]" "McBride:" "This smells like shit, dude!" "I saw your fucking mouth breather."

"And he's getting nosey." "Are we done?" "You know, I've Ben thinking." "You should come in for a visit, see what we've got going on." "I'll set it up for sometime next week." "Sounds good."

"Make sure the dog stays down, Callie." "He's rabid." "Hey." "Handsome, wow." "Just go in there, relax." "Be you." "If he doesn't show up, can you argue this?" "He'll be here." "The hooker just texted me, so we're fine." "[bell dings]" "Oh, shit, it's them." "They got that cold "who gives a fuck about humanity" look." "Walking in a "V" like geese." "[scoffs]" "Right?"

"The Honorable Rosten Keller presiding." "Oh, my fucking God." "Good morning, Counsel." "Please." "This case seems to be hanging around like a bad smell, thanks to my clerk." "Now then, but I understand there continue to be problems with the plaintiff's original filing." "Yes, Your Honor." "The first issue would be standing." "Your Honor, before we get to standing..." "Hi, I'm Patty Solis-Papagian for the plaintiff." "We're awaiting the arrival of lead counsel William McBride." "Judge:" "And where is Mr. McBride?" "[door opens]" "I'm sorry, Your Honor." "The traffic was a mess." "I think the President's in town or something." "Miss Senate, Miss Kittridge, and Mr. Letts were all here on time." "The litigant bringing the case can't be bothered." "Well, if protocol seems to count..." " Judge:" "It does!" " ..." "I'm seven days early." "Because, you know, the defendant's required to provide notice before scheduling any motion to dismiss." "Judge:" "Yes!" "Well, we're all here now, so." " [clicks]" " Have a seat." "Let's proceed." "The issue concerns standing." "[clears throat]" "Miss Senate, I'll hear from you." "Thank you, Your Honor." "Rachel Kennedy is neither spouse nor surviving child of the deceased." "Wrongful death can be asserted by anyone financially or emotionally dependent on the decedent." "No California court has ever conferred standing..." "My client's brother blew up on the defendant's boat." "First of all, Mr. Larson took his own life." "The OSHA report makes that clear." "And OSHA depended on an investigation by the defendant." "The issue is standing, counsel." "You're straying off point." "No, actually I'm not." "The point of this lawsuit is to find out how Ryan Larson was killed." "I'm granting defendant's motion." "This case is dismissed." "Hang on a second." "What?" "Your complaint is defective on standing." "Therefore, the case is dismissed." " Thank you." " Are you kidding?" "Do I look like a kidder, sir?" "No, but you sound bought." "I hope they paid you well." "Oh, Jesus." "What did you say to me?" "I said you sound bought." "I meant you're acting like a guy who's been bribed or otherwise in the bag for the other side." "The case is dismissed." "I'm also fining Mr. McBride $5,000 for direct contempt of court." " Excuse me?" " I do not excuse you." "Suggesting that I've been bought... that's contempt." "I'm ordering the plaintiff to pay full defense costs for both this proceeding and the preparation time connected thereto." "Call my next case." "What the fuck is this?" "That vulgarity will cost you another $5,000." "I don't give a shit." "Make it ten or fifteen, you douchebag." "Judge:" "Counsel, you are dangerously close to having your ticket punched."
