"Previously on In Treatment" "He knew that Kate was in Italy with a man, he throw it in my face." "How dare you?" "It's completely out if that matters at all." "Am I the first Patient to be in love with you, Paul?" " Do you mean?" " Yeah, I don't think I can do this." " Do what?" " I don't think it's leading anywhere." " Where do you want it to lead, Alex?" "Something saying, I miss flying." "We need to discuss on little bit a detail, we are ending up therapy." "We are finishing today?" " Tell him I'm ready." " Well, let's just talk about whether you are ready or not." " I need this." " You put me in a very difficult position, Alex." "I've never had patient dying before in treatment." " You going out?" " I'm gonna see Laura." " Weird being in a patient's house?" "You're not a patient." "You are over me?" "No, I'm not." " Paul." " I saw Laura today." "So I went over there to tell her that I loved her." " What happened?" " I had an anxiety attack" "You had to take him apart, didn't you?" "Did you think that Alex's therapy here has something to do with his dead?" "All right, I'm coming." " Who is it?" " Delivery." "Mr. Prince." "Did you thought when you move to Brooklyn I didn't find you?" " Is everything ok?" " Ok?" " Would you forget already?" " No, of course I didn't." "How can I ever forget that?" "No one knows who takes responsibility." "Everybody thinks they can just run away." "I did not anymore." "I only confused, it's been over years, has something happened?" "I got a report back from the Navy." "There was no sign of a mechanical malfunction." "I didn't know that." "But you knew my son wasn't ready to fly." "You knew..." "and you did nothing to stop." "Now he's gone." "You still practicing?" "Would you like to come inside?" "Is this your new office where you help people?" "Like you did Alex?" " I would never go in there." " Mr. Prince, Alex's dead was a tragedy, I can't even imagine to begin to imagine what you" "I don't want you to imagine man." "I want you to live it." " I understand your anger." " You understand nothing." "You wanna understand something doctor?" " Maybe you would understand this." " What's this?" "Lawsuit against you." "I told him I served the summons myself" "Can we talk about this please?" " Is that gonna bring him back?" " No, obviously it's not gonna bring him back." "That's what Alex killed in the first place talking with you." " I did not kill your son, Mr. Prince." " Oh, yeah." "Then tell that to his son." " I'm sorry." " No, no, that's not good enough." "You gonna pay." "I want you to pay." "In Treatment Season 2" " Episode 01" "Transscript: violett SubCentral.de" "Mr. Weston?" "This way please." "Paul." "It's been a while." "How are you?" "I'm fine." "It's me, isn't it?" " I wasn't sure you would remember." " Of course I remember." "I've changed." "Actually I had an appointment with Mr. Ellis." "I know, unfortunately he stuck down in D.C." "He sends his apologies I'm covering." "Well, then maybe I should wait for him to come back" "Oh, you can, but he might be a while and I already looked at your file." "But still..." " given our history." " Yeah please, Paul." "The first hearing is in 8 weeks." " I think it's in your best interest to get started." " 8 weeks." " Is that enough time?" " Not Exactly." "Look, you here let's just do the first consultation." "I last some questions you last some questions and that's it." "Mr. Ellis can see you next time if you'd like." " Ok" " Great." "Well, beautiful view." " Yeah, all the trappings." " All right." "Have a seat." "I've handled a lot of malpractice cases." "Malpractice?" "I can't imagine how difficult this must be for you." "No, I'm fine, really." "Malpractice." "How do we..." "How do we begin." "We start with some personal information just to verify is that ok?" "Sure." " You 53?" " Yeah." " You look great." " Thank you." "Men are lucky in that." "God it's annoying." "You have a BA and a MS from Columbia University and a PHD from a new school." " That's impressive." " Thank you." "And then after your New York internship you just  picked up and move?" "No, that was a few years later." "I actually wanted to the Baltimore Institute." "Right, that's somewhere of the '88." "I'd first start the law school." "And now you live and work in Brooklyn." "Welcome back." "Thank you, I actually come back in last summer." " And you are recently divorced?" " Does it say that in my file?" "Coming from your insurance company it's the first year you've circled the "D" on the form." "Then I guess I'm divorced." " And three Children?" " Yes." "Are they with you?" "All right, so I assume you understand the basics of the lawsuit." "You know, to be quite honest, I don't really understand any of it." "Ok, let's start from the top." "You being sued by your ex-patient estate." "They claim that you should have understood that Mr. Prince wasn't ready to fly and you should have alert the Navy about his condition." "They suing you for $20 million." "Fucking hell." "Only three million which is covered by your insure." "You'd like some water?" " Yeah, please." " Or maybe something stronger?" " What?" " It's a joke, it's a bad joke" "Sorry, I'm not at my most jovial." "Well, who would be?" "In my personal opinion this lawsuit is without merit." "But we live in a litigious society." "So this first hearing," " it could just get throwing out." " It could and it should." "But the threshold to allow a case to go to trail is objective, there is the law and then there is the judge you draw." "You've been throw divorce so you must know that." "Yeah, but the law is still the law, isn't it?" "Yeah, but your patient was a young man, a father, a war hero." "To be absolutely honest, I don't think that he would see himself as a war hero." "By the way, a home telling judge maybe want to give his family their day in court." "But I thought you say it wouldn't go to trial." "It shouldn't, but if it does the jury can let their emotions getting away of the facts." "Especially when it comes to suicide cases." "What do you mean?" "Suicide?" "Are you telling me that you think Alex killed himself?" "That's not what I'm saying, but his attorneys claim that he did." "And their out there right now deposing everyone he knew and they will find people who say that he seemed depressed and not himself." " And the Navy report" " Well, of course the Navy are going to absolve himself." " Of course they are that's not really a big surprise." " Well, we will be making that point if it gets that far." "By then it becomes a contest of experts." "We will find people who will testify that you hold the standard of care." "All right and their pay people to say that I didn't." "I just don't understand how this can be happening." "Paul, the point is these things do happen and that's why firms like ours exist." "Your insurance company chose this firm for a reason." "Did you followed the Boulanger case?" "The surgeon who operated on the wrong side of somebody's brain?" "I mean that guy was completely incompetent" "The facts were against us." "But I was head counsel and we won." "So what you saying is that the insurance company chose you, because they think I'm guilty and you get guilty people off, is that it?" "No that's not what I meant." "My point is I've handled dozens of negligence cases many which seem far worse than this one." "I'm confident we can help you." "I said no calls, Henry." "It's Mr. Netsky." "Dad, I'm in the middle of a meeting, are you ok?" "Oh, that's so glad and it fits?" "I know mom hates green, but I love you in it." "Ok I have to go." "I love you, bye." "No more calls." " I'm sorry, my father." " It's ok." "Since he sold the candy store he has some free time." " A lot of free time." " He must be very proud of you." "Come a long way from the Pulaski Bridge." "Ok let's keep going." "Your session notes if you haven't send us yet," " we need those right away." " I don't have any notes." " Really?" " I don't take notes." "That could be a bit of a problem for us." "What do you mean a problem?" "Lots of therapists don't take notes." "I mean I start the session, I'm in and I know everything that is to be known about the patient" "I don't need to write it down." "Ok maybe cause of situations like this you should." "Process notes may not be therapeutically important," " but legally" " Is this that what you saying that a bad therapist who take notes is better than a good therapist who doesn't take notes, is that what you are saying?" "I'm not saying that at all." "Am I some kind of criminal, because I never take notes?" "I wouldn't say never, Paul, I'm pretty sure you took them with me." "Can we take a break, just few minutes." "Hey dad, I'm good..." "Sorry, my father doesn't quite understand the concept of "she is in a meeting"." "Theirs are not mine, the children, in case you wondering." " Beautiful kids." " My nieces." "I've never married." "It's funny a lot of normal lawyers are like shrinks, they don't put out personal photos, but since they are not my kids I figured." "So let's keep going, where were we?" "I think that you are reminding me that I took notes when I was your therapist" "You haven't been my therapist in 20 years." "I shouldn't brought up that." "I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable." "I was kind of uncomfortable anyway." "Everyone who comes in here are under this circumstances." "Let's get back to solving this." "You didn't take notes." "Did you consult with any colleagues about Mr. Prince's treatment?" "Yes, actually I had weekly sessions last year with what we call a supervisor." "Great." "What is his or her name?" "Gina Toll, Dr. Gina Toll." "That's a relief." "Is she in Maryland?" " We'll have to get the position from her." " Is it absolutely necessary." "We need to affirm you do all you could for Mr. Prince" "Well, I don't know if she will do it." "Why not." "Because our relationship is been a little strained at time." "Over this?" "Do you think she might believe you're in some way accountable." "I honestly don't know what she might think." " Is that a yes?" " I honestly don't know." "Look, in the first place Alex wasn't in treatment that long." "Why not?" "The process of separation is quite complex." "Did you affirm to someone else?" "How did it end?" " I don't see what difference that makes." " Oh, we can make a lot of difference." "Why did the treatment end so quickly?" " What do you mean by quickly?" " Well, before the patient was better." " It was his choice to leave." " Why?" "What happened in that last session?" "He said that he was ready to fly and he told me not to screw up his life." "And you let him go?" "Yes, I let him go." "The attorneys are gonna claim that he wasn't psychologically fit." "Suicide often seem better before they killed themselves upbeat and determined once they have a plan in place." "Because sometime people are doing actually better" " they seem up beating put plans into place." " So which was it with Alex?" "I don't know, I'm still try to figure that out." "My patient died, I'm human." " I have doubts." " You want talk about them?" "No, I do not want to talk about them." "God this is, it's Kafkaesque." "Paul, we aren't in a battle here." "It's not like therapy." "Where use to tell me to look for the grey" "Not now." "The law is win or lose there is no subtext here." "Actually I think there is quite a bit of subtext here." "I don't follow you." "You asked me if Alex's treatment was to quick." "You asked me if I ended his therapy before he was better." "It's just due diligence." "But it could also be that the war is getting a little bit crossed." "It seems to me that you are if I express some of the feelings that maybe..." " Bennett I'm in a meeting." " Yes I know I apologies." "I wanted to meet Dr. Weston." "I'm Bennett Ryan." " Management partner." " Nice to meet you." "I just wanted to apologies I'm behalf of Mr. Ellis, but I want you to know" "I was thrilled when Ms. Netsky grabbed the case" "You got good hands." "But you know that." "I understand you two go back away." "Thank you, Ben." "Oh and if I there is anything you need please don't hesitate to call." "Thank you." "Mia, I have to arrange our meeting." "Sorry." "No problem." " It's not what you think." " What do I think?" "He shouldn't have walked in here like that." " It's fine." " Actually it wasn't fine." "I'm a head litigator, ok he is the managing partner." "There is a lot of subtext by that performance." " There was?" " Yeah, it's ok you don't have to worry about it." "You know Mia I think we should stop now." " When Mr. Ellis comes back I" " What do you saying?" "I just don't think we should work together." "That's funny." " Haven't we been in here before" " How do you mean?" "I was 22, dealing with the crisis." "And you just disappeared." " That's what you remember?" " No, that's what happened." "You were there one week and gone the next." "Mia, obviously I'm not a perfect therapist." "If you did feel abandon and I apologies" "Don't give me that I'm sorry if u feel bullshit." "I felt abandon, because you abandoned me." "I'm sure that we talked about that in our sessions." "Oh, did we?" "Than how come that last day I sat there on your couch..." "devastate." "Mia, I was moving with my family to Maryland." "You couldn't leave you told me I had to." "I give you a gift that day." "Do you remember?" " I'm not exactly, it's..." " No, yeah." "I never heard from you after I left." "It's not usual for therapists to keep in touch with patients, one day" "Some do." " If the patient means something." " Mia, of course you meant." "You know what forget it, forget it." "This is stupid." "We can stop here, let's stop here." " It's my turn, I'm throwing you out." " Mia." "Bennett said that you grabbed the case when I was got detained." "I'm just curious why you think you did that." "I don't know." "It doesn't matter." "You know the last time I saw you, you was just a kid." "I remember you were worried that you wouldn't make it throw your first semester of law school." "But now..." "Look at you, look at where you are." " Where am I?" " You are a head litigator." "The wall full of clippings." "I think that you wanted me to see that." " To think that you are now success." " I'm a success." "Why?" "Because I work in a tall building?" "Or because I wear a Prada suit?" "Or because I summer in the Hamptons and go to all the gala openings at the fucking Met." "Yeah, I made it throw law school." "All the way of the top floor." "With the beautiful views and the windows that don't open and the fucking jackhammers that never stop." "And you know what I do when I won a case?" "One of that hopeless ones that only I will take." "I go out at get drunk with my gay secretary." "And then I stumble home to my one bedroom combo and I pray that I can sleep." "You hoping to show me..." "Both." "How well you done and..." "How sad u are?" "I see they sitting there and all I can think I can't stop thinking." "It didn't have to be this way." "How do you mean?" "Don't tell me you forget that too." " No." " No, me neither." "This is a mistake." "I get your file to Mr. Ellis." "He do an excellent job." "He's almost as good as I'm." " It's fine." " I make sure Ellis gives you the top priority." "Thank you." " Look I" " And I really have to kick you out." "I have a meeting with another client." "I understand." "Thank you." "Mia." "Transscript: violett SubCentral.de"
