"And I've worked hard to earn forgiveness both from my family and from you, the citizens of Chicago." "That work is ongoing." "We will continue..." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Huge press conference." "Is everything all right?" "I can't hear you." "Hold on." "I just need to say it." "We've been up and down, back and forth, and I..." "Will, no." "Show me the plan." " The what?" " The plan." "I get the romance." "I need a plan." "isn't necessary, because Chicago once again..." "It's the parent-teacher conferences that are hard." "Alicia, come on." " I have to go now." " Come on." "I believe I am that change, and I believe that I am that new beginning." "Thank you very much." "Alicia." " Hey, thanks for doing this." " It'll be right here for you." "I'm away from my phone so leave a message." "Hey, I just wanted to say..." "You all know my wife." "Look, you're right," "I don't have a plan." "It's wrong." "I'm your boss, you're my employee." "Let's just drop this, okay?" " the current state's attorney's office." "Instead, SA Glenn Ch..." "I'm away from my phone so leave a message." "No." "You know what?" "I'm not just dropping this." "You wanna know my plan?" "My plan is I love you, okay?" "I've probably loved you ever since Georgetown." "So phone me." "I'll meet you anywhere, and we will make a plan." "If none of this makes sense to you, just ignore it." "No embarrassment, nothing." "We'll just go back to where things stood." "You know what?" "I'm not dropping this." "You wanna know my plan?" "My plan is I love you, okay?" "So phone me." "I'll meet you anywhere." "If none of this makes sense to you, just ignore it." "Cook County needs a state attorney who puts justice before politics." "Glenn Childs has proven that he is not that person." "Thank you for coming out this morning." "I have a short statement I'd like to read." "First, please let me apologize to my wife, friends, staff and fellow Coloradans for the shadow placed over them by these accusations." "I did nothing wrong." "But I can understand how my actions over the last two years have been misinterpreted." "So let me say without equivocation," "I have always been faithful to my wife." " Not only..." " Yeah?" " I'm headed out." " The Police Union speech?" "Yeah." "Did you have a chance to read it?" "It's good." "The opening story..." " Not funny enough?" " Cut it." "Listen, this..." "It's not us, Peter." "You know, I have an hour today." "I thought, uh..." "Thought I'd drop by court and watch you work." " Oh, that's okay." " No, I really want to." "It's a status hearing." "Maybe another time." "Okay." "TIMMERMAN:news and gossip now being bandied about in the press and through anonymous blogs." " Am I boring you?" " Excuse me, Your Honor?" "I asked if I'm boring you." "Saw you check your watch, I thought I might be holding you up." "No, Your Honor." "We have a staff meeting in an hour." "I was checking to make sure I was on time, and I am." "I'm so glad." "Is that a smile, Miss Long?" "No, Your Honor." "Food in my teeth." "Okay." "So I love when prosecutors and defense attorneys come together and find agreement, but your client's restitution should also include court costs, Ms. Florrick." "So if you don't mind, you two can revise this while I handle a pre-trial motion." " Tommy..." " Let me guess, he hates women?" "No, he just checks his Google Alerts daily." "You have more than he does." " So it looks like you're off the hook." " I'm?" "The press has a new scandal." "It's my right." "You are one day away from trial." "We have a jury." " I will not slow this process down." " It's my right to represent myself." "You are not a lawyer, sir." "I wasn't an Alaskan fisherman till I stepped on my first troller" "I wasn't a hacker till I broke my first code." "This is not a game." "You are being accused of murder." "A murder the government committed." "The Pentagon murdered my business partner and set me up for it." "Why?" "Because we posted top-secret Pentagon video on our website." "OpenSourceFind. com." "And I don't care if you don't believe me." "It's my right under the sixth and 14th amendments to fire my attorney and represent myself." "I will not allow this court to become your personal soapbox, Mr. Salle." "And I won't watch this trial turned over on appeal, you understand?" "You are getting a babysitter." "That is not open for discussion." "Mrs. Florrick." "Uh, are you a member of the Capital Litigation Bar?" "Uh, excuse me, Your Honor?" "Are you a member of the Illinois Capital Litigation Bar?" " Yes." " Good." "Congratulations." "I'm appointing you standby counselor to Mr. Salle." "Oh, I'm sorry, but I have the Murphy-Gomes suit going to trial next week." " Who's the judge?" " Judge Fullerton." "Good." "My court takes precedence." "Trial starts tomorrow at 9." "No..." "Your Honor, I can't." "You can't do this." "Actually, ma'am, I can." " Your Honor, I just wanna point out..." " Don't you start." "We're going to trial tomorrow." "Anything from you, Mr. Brody?" " The people are content." " Of course they are." "Tommy, next case." "And his name just kept coming up:" "Derrick Bond, Derrick Bond." "I go to Louisiana to sign up fishermen for a BP class action, and I find that half of them have already been signed up by a small boutique D.C. firm." "Imagine my frustration." "So I had to look up this Derrick Bond." "And I was surprised to find one of the most gentlemanly young lawyers that I've ever met." " Hear, hear." " Yeah." "Anyway, I couldn't be happier about this merger." "Will and I could not be happier." "Thank you, Diane, Will." "Uh, I know that there are some unfamiliar faces around, so please, everyone, introduce yourselves and communicate through:" "We're moving towards a paperless office." "We bring lobbyists, you bring corporate." "We bring D.C., you bring Chicago." "With our current president's ties to your city, we mean more together than apart." "Now, let me turn things over to Bachelor Number 16." " Not gonna hear the end of that, am I?" " No." "A few updates." "We got a continuance on BP, so we'll need a few of you to join us on the diocese depots." "And the Murphy-Gomes suit got an expedited start date, so we'll need that team to kick into high gear." " So let's get going." " Will?" "Nice to meet you." "Will?" "Good job." "Not me, you." "It's like Invasion of the Body Snatchers." "As long as we're the ones snatching." "How long do I have to wait before I get my season tickets back?" "Ha-ha-ha." "A polite week." "Happy days." "Just so you know, I'll be playing this disgruntled." "The excluded partner." "Well, maybe we can shake something else loose, contractually." "Derrick, we were talking about you." "That went well, didn't it?" " It did." "It did." "Uh, good group." " Very good." "Will was just talking the merger." "He had a few concerns." "Nothing big." "Just about office space and equitable division." "An hour ago, I resigned as state's attorney of Cook County." "Another year, another scandal, another woman standing by her man." "You'd rather have your husband sleep with a prostitute?" "If the situation was that or fall in love with someone?" "Yeah." " One's just sex, the other is..." " Shh." "Miss Correlli is a member of my staff." " Oops." " And that is all." " What happened to your couch?" " Why, hello, Mr. Gold." " It's gone." "I'm redecorating." " I'm taking this very personally." " Oh, Mr. Gold." " Do you know what a tracker is?" "Do I know what a tracker is?" "No." "An unpaid political operative who tracks the opposition candidate trying to catch him off guard with a question or a comment in order to tape the embarrassing encounter for a free viral negative campaigning." "Macaca?" "Result of a tracker." "And I imagine this will all come around to me." "The events of this morning, the congressional scandal." "You are back in the news." "And Childs has people tracking you." " You know this?" " Well, I know what I would do and I just flip it to know what my opponent will do." "Okay." "So if anyone approaches you with a flip phone or an oddly shouted comment, the best thing to do is smile and move on." "They will try to follow you, probably a college student, often working in twos." "Again, smile and move on." "I'm trying to keep you out of this, but it's modern politics." "Wives are no longer off limits." "Everything good here?" "Everything's good here." "Anything else?" " No, I'm good, if you're good." " I'm good." " Hey, Will." " Eli." " You needed something?" " Yes." "Judge Matchick made me standby counsel" " on a pro-se case starting tomorrow." " You told him about Murphy-Gomes?" " I did." "He didn't seem to care." " That sounds like Matchick." "He's still proud of a walk-on line he had in The Dark Knight." " Okay." "I'll have Shawn take over." " I think I can do both." "No, it's okay." "We're not starved for personnel anymore." "Merger going well?" " It is." " I'm glad." "Don't sweat the drug cases." "Gag them and bag them." "Five to ten." "On page two, you'll find a summary of outstanding continuances." "We may not have enough copies, so share at the back." "Let's not go continuance crazy, okay, folks?" "Unless you're up against Goldstein and Michaels." "Then all continuances are welcome." "Matan, what's up with the pro se?" "Guy's running a unicorn defense." "He killed his business partner for the money, now he's trying to suggest it was some sort of Pentagon conspiracy, heh." "Judge Matchick saddled him with a wrangler, Alicia Florrick." "Should be entertaining." "Anyone on break, sit in." "Anything else?" "Okay, let's get the bad guys." "Matan." "Why would Matchick choose Florrick?" "Happenstance She was there on a settlement." "Take Cary as second chair." "Sir, it was nothing." "It's okay." "It's happenstance." "It's an election year." "There's no such thing as happenstance." "Matchick supports Peter." "He's pushing his wife into a prominent position." "Cary." "I want you to take second chair." "Matan will bring you up to speed, okay?" "You got it." "You're up to speed." "He was bleeding profusely from the neck and chest." "There also appeared to have been a struggle before the shooting." "I attempted CPR, but the victim died at the scene." "At the crime scene, you found shell casings." " Isn't that correct?" " Objection." " On what grounds?" " On the grounds of foundation." "Mr. Salle, he was about to tell us the foundation." " May I have a ruling, Your Honor?" " Overruled." "Exception." "You know that doesn't mean anything." "Oh, I'm preserving your bias for the record." "Oh, dear God." "Mrs. Florrick?" "Please, Mr. Salle, let me argue for you." "I'm very good at it." "It's not about being good." "In a fight between a man being paid and a man fighting for his life, who would you bet on?" "I'm betting on myself." "Don't turn your back to the jury." "These 9-millimetre casings you found at the scene, they are consistent with a Russian-made" "Makarov semiautomatic." " A very rare handgun?" " That's correct." " And who owned such a handgun?" " The defendant." "And when you arrested him, did he say what had happened to his gun?" "He said it was missing." "No more questions." "Now, detective, didn't I say it had been stolen?" "You did." "You said agents from the government had stolen it." " Did I say why?" " Objection." "Actually, you know what?" "Forget it." "Let the jury hear this." "You said the government was upset because you had uploaded a leaked video to your website." "Is it this video?" "I played it on my website, OpenSourceFind. com." "This video is of a U.S. Predator drone assassinating an unarmed man in Afghanistan." "That's correct." "Did I give you the name of someone to talk to, uh, someone who could point to the real killer at the Pentagon?" "You said to speak to one of your volunteers," "Onya, who had acquired the video from a leaker." "Did you speak to Onya?" "This volunteer?" "Okay, I think I'll object at this point, Your Honor." "Sustained." "Mr. Salle, I already told you, the government is not on trial here, you are." "Well, maybe they should be." "Do I think the U.S. government killed his business partner?" "No." "But I've got nothing else to go on." "Look, we're trying to be more thrifty with Kalinda's hours," "I can't have her chasing phantoms." "Just do the best you can with what you've got." "What's your strategy?" "My strategy?" "Well, there's this one juror, I think he agrees with Salle." "Every time the judge overrules us, you can tell he wants to hear more." "He thinks we're being censored." "Quite a risk, trying to win over one juror." "I only need one for a deadlock." "We can give her half a day." "To hunt down Pentagon assassins?" "To find sand." "To throw in the prosecutor's case." " Kalinda." " What's up?" "Alicia needs help fingering the Pentagon for a murder." " How long do I have?" " The afternoon." "Oh, sorry." " What?" " See this month's Chicago magazine?" "Sixteenth most eligible bachelor." " We're fine, Kalinda." " Yeah, that looked fine." "Did you see the photo spread?" "Will in a swimsuit." " He wasn't in a swimsuit." " So you saw it then?" " Talk to him." " He doesn't want to." " He told me." "He wants to drop it." " Yeah, in a voicemail." "I've always been faithful to my wife." "Anything said in voicemail doesn't count." "Salle doesn't know who leaked the Pentagon video." "He was insulated from the leaker by a go-between activist named Onya." "No last name." "Her last known address." "But she's paranoid, so she moves around a lot to avoid detection." "Good thing about amateur paranoids is they always leave something behind." "Talk to him." "Life is short." "The most honest part of the body, which you wouldn't guess, is the feet." " You're kidding." " No." "Look at Mrs. Timmerman's feet." "They are pointing away from her husband." "Almost as if to flee." "Now, let's look at Mrs. Clinton's feet." "They are facing toward her husband." "This is a marriage that can recover." "Now let's look at Alicia Florrick's feet." "One foot is toward her husband, one foot is away from her husband." "It just signifies ambivalence." "It's not going away." "That's the problem." "It's not my scandal." "It's Colorado." "That's like going to the moon." "Every time they show him, they show you." " They show his wife, they show Alicia." " Change the subject." " Right, to Glenn Child's divorce." " No." "Eli, no." "Peter, you can't keep leaving all your missiles in the silo." "I'm not leaving anything." "This isn't about being a good guy." "We go after his family, then he's gonna come after mine." " He's coming after yours either way." " Then we'll wait till he does." "In the meantime, change the subject to something positive." "What am I doing here anyway?" "Get me in front of some women's groups so we can remind them of the mutual respect." "Get me a list of any organizations giving out an award this season." "I don't care if it's the Knitting Needlers of America." "I need a visual." "Oh, sorry, uh..." "My friend lives here and she said I could get her key." " Are you?" " The landlord." "Who's your friend?" " Onya." " Yeah, uh, she moved out." "Right." "She leave a forwarding address?" "No." "No, uh..." " She's a friend of yours?" " Yeah." "Look, the thing is she has my extra key, and I'm locked out." "I was hoping I could get in." "Oh, there's nothing left in there." "She cleaned it out." "It might be shoved to the back of a drawer or something." "Do you mind if I just check?" "Check for your extra key?" "Uh..." "It would really help." "Please." " Close the door when you're done." " Thank you." "I found it in the dumpster." "No SIM card." "She must have taken it when she left the apartment." " So it's a dead end?" " For the moment." "But there was somebody there just before me." "I found chipped paint under the air vent screws." "So somebody must have checked the vents after the apartment was cleaned." "Yeah, sorry." "I should've cleaned that up." "Oh, yes." "Derrick said you would be dropping by." "This is Derrick's in-house investigator, Blake, from, uh, D.C." "I picked the lock in the apartment." "I found a cell phone in the air vent." "It looked like the subject left in a rush." "She left this in the phone." "The SIM card." "Much of it's encrypted." "I can try and decipher it, if you want." "Uh, yeah." "Let's see what you can find." "I wouldn't mind Kalinda trying to decipher." "She's done it for me before." "Um, yeah, well, why don't you work on it together?" "Did you ever find your extra key?" " You knew who I was?" " Yeah." "I wanted to see how you'd play it." "What are you, man of a thousand faces?" "No." "Just one." "Does that flirtation bit always work for you?" "Yeah." " Are we gonna have trouble?" " No." "No, as far as I'm concerned, it's your backyard, Leela." "Sorry, that's not your name, is it?" "It's Kalinda." "Kalinda's your name." "Imagine my surprise when I looked at the membership roll of the Women's Auxiliary of the Botanical Gardens and saw your name." "I was also surprised to see that the Auxiliary has not awarded a friend of the Auxiliary in quite some time." "Anyway, if you could talk to the Auxiliary..." "Certainly, Mr. Gold." "How's the campaign going?" "The campaign?" "It's going very well, ma'am." "Thank you." " Why?" " Oh, no reason." "It's just that it seems like you're coming to me more than I might expect." "And how much did you expect, Mrs. Florrick?" "I imagine that campaigns are very complicated things." "Maybe you need help?" "What kind of help?" "I think we should stay in touch." "I think we should talk regularly." "I can offer you advice and you can ask questions when you are confused." "I think that's a very good idea." "Let's stay in touch." " Objection." " Overruled." " Exception." " Exception." "I get it." "Continue, Mr. Brody." "What other forensic evidence did you collect from the scene?" "We found partial palm prints on the Cessna door and fingerprints on the inside." "Who did those prints belong to?" "The defendant." "No further questions." "Have I been on that plane before?" "Objection, Your Honor." "Beyond the scope." " Sustained." " These prints of mine on the plane, that doesn't mean that I was at any time..." " Objection." " Sustained." "Did your investigation reveal you were on the plane...?" "Did your investigation reveal that I had been on the plane a week before the murder, and that could be the source of the fingerprints?" "Yes." "Uh, are we finished here, Mr. Salle?" "Uh, one second, Your Honor." " Mr. Salle?" " Miss..." "I forgot your name." " Loren." " Loren, sorry." "What happened to the sample number 48?" "I don't understand the question." "You collected 48 blood samples." "Isn't that correct?" "No, 47 blood samples." "Yes, uh, 47 samples according to your evidence list, and yet here on the crime scene photo, there is a 48th sample." "That's outside the crime scene." "So you found blood outside the designated crime scene, and decided not to include it?" "Objection, Your Honor." "This is a large hangar, and this blood sample was found by a toolkit which could have been left by any random worker." "Overruled." "Answer the question." "We did a preliminary blood-type test of this blood sample, as we do with all our samples." "It was O negative, not consistent with the victim." "And what is my blood type?" "B positive." "So it wasn't consistent with my blood type either." "No further questions." "I haven't said this in a while to anyone." "Thank you." "Crypt Bit Encryption." "You don't like Lasermite?" "Try combining Lasermite and Alcosec." "Use them as binary sifters." " They'd cancel each other out." " Use Lasermite for salting." "So, what did you find out about me?" "Some friends in D.C. said you phoned." "You have enemies." "Nice." "Same phone number." "There, there, there." "Every night, 7:30." " Yeah." " You recognize it." "Stan's Chicken Shack." "She's ordering takeout." "You think she would get takeout again from her new address?" "Hey, Leela, ahem." "We should work together." " Stop it." " What?" "It's been such a difficult time for Peter and his family, and this award will mean so much to them." "Now he needs us." " Would you excuse me?" " Her daughter-in-law." "That's who we should get." " Oh, hello, Jackie." " Hello, Ruth." "We were just talking about your daughter-in-law." " Where is Alicia?" " Well, as you know, she works." "But my granddaughter is here, Grace." "Grace?" "She's thinking of joining our cotillion." "Oh, really?" "Grace?" "It's so bogus, huh?" "Yeah, I got dragged here." " Yeah." " You too?" "No, no." "I'm working." "Doing what?" "You know." "So has your mom or dad said anything about this other scandal?" "The one right now?" "No." "Um, kind of just try to avoid the whole subject, you know." "They're still sleeping in separate rooms?" "Who's that?" "Oh, Steven." "He's in film school." "So your parents aren't sleeping together anymore, right?" "And you used to do accounting work for the victim, Mr. Kimball?" "Yes, and Mr. Salle." "I'm sorry, Miss Derbeken, could you please move your hand?" "Yes." "Sorry." "In fact, you travelled with Mr. Kimball, didn't you?" "Our job required moving around a lot, so I stayed in the same hotel." "You saw firsthand a dispute between Mr. Kimball and the defendant about their website." "Yes, I did." "In fact, could you describe the letter you saw sent by Mr. Salle to the victim a week before the murder?" " Object now." " Why?" " Do it." " Objection." "This isn't hearsay." "Miss Derbeken is testifying to a letter she read herself, not what was heard." "Yes, but, uh, "best evidence," Your Honor." "I'm listening." "The original letter offers the best evidence." "And it can't be testified to if the letter's not produced." " Where is the letter?" " Oh, come on." "Your Honor, we can't establish motive unless we hear from her." "That's not my problem, Mr. Brody." "The objection is sustained." "Miss Derbeken cannot testify to the letter." "Know what I wanna do if I get out?" "Go to law school." "He's got no case, sir." "He's still arguing a unicorn defense." "He's beating you." "He's got no case and he's beating you." " Cary." " Don't do this." "He's a first year." "I don't care if he's just out of law school." "Can you beat her?" "Uh, we just caught a bad break, Mr. Childs." "No, that's not what I asked." "Can you beat her?" " Yes." " You're first chair." "I don't know how long you plan to stay with us, but that's not how you endear yourself to your co-workers." "Oh, is that what this is about?" "Endearment?" "Oh, uh, one last thing." "How are you on partners' offices?" "Diane has a corner office." "I have a partial-corner with more square footage." "We could splurge for either." "One of the things we did at our old office was move the partners' offices into the core of the building and made the outside communal associate areas." "It fostered goodwill." "Do you prefer an interior office?" "Let me think on it." "And I would like to start a partner-mentorship program." "Well, we already unofficially mentor associates." "I think it'll create greater goodwill if we officially mentor." "There's one more thing." "Peer review." "We don't choose who to fire, associates grade each other." "It creates community." "Yeah, like Lord of the Flies." "Um..." "Well, let us think on that." "Are we being played in some way?" " I don't see how." " I don't either." "It's making me suspicious." "Stan's Chicken Shack on 58th." "Yeah, I just phoned a minute ago for my delivery order." "I just wanna check I gave you the right address." "The name's Onya." "No delivery by that name." "Are you sure you have the right...?" "Stan's Chicken Shack." "Yeah, I think I might have given you the wrong address." "Uh, the name's Onya." "Oh, yeah, you got a new address." "Uh, no, I think I may have given you the wrong address." "Uh, what do you have?" "9625 West Marshfield" "Apartment 5E." "Is that right?" "Yeah, yeah." "That's really good." "Thank you." "Bye." " Hi." " Hi." "You ready to take another go at this?" "What is lupus?" "Lupus is a disease in which the immune system attacks..." ""Objection," Your Honor." "Uh, "Beyond the scope."" "Hmm, I'm gonna overrule on that." "I'd like to see where this is going." "Lupus is a disease in which the immune system attacks the body's cells and tissue, resulting in inflammation and tissue damage." "How common is it?" "Fairly common." "It affects one out of every 1,000 Americans." "Does the defendant, Mr. Salle, suffer from lupus?" "Lupus erythematosus, yes, he does." "Now, what is another odd artifact of lupus?" "Well, if you withdraw medication, it can change your blood type." "Hmm." "So Mr. Salle could have O-negative blood one week, and if he changed his medication, B-positive the next?" " That is correct." " Wow." "Now, this blood sample that you took from a tool kit in the hangar, this blood sample that Mrs. Florrick and her mentee worked so diligently to get into evidence, did you expedite a DNA test looking for a match?" " I did." " And who did it match?" "Mr. Salle, the defendant." "Well, no further questions." "The prosecution rests." "Onya?" "No, no, no." "Vance sent me." "I work with his lawyers." "I'm not Onya, you're looking for..." "Okay, they know you're in there." "Don't go back in there." "Come on." "Look, Vance wants to help, but he needs your help too." "You know who shot Kimball, right?" "Was it the government?" "Shh." "What?" "The feds use strollers." "They're transmitters." "Easy to disguise." "The guy who leaked me the video, he was afraid that Kimball was going to name him, so he killed him." "Onya, you have to testify to that." "No." "No, he'll kill you." "He'll kill me too." " We can hide your identify." " No, you can't." "If you bring me into that court, I will plead the fifth." "Look at her." "Like that's a real baby." "Okay, then tell me the name of the leaker." "I'll take the risk." "Come on, it's the least you can do for Vance." "The good news is we found the leaker." "CIA analyst, Edgar Barkus." "And the bad news?" "He's missing." "Office was cleared out a month ago." "So, what are we saying?" "It is a government conspiracy?" " Or the Pentagon found their leaker." " Alicia." "The difficulty, of course, comes from not having enough access." "Use her." "Use Onya." " I don't understand." " The prosecution is winning." "They're arguing a straightforward case with a straightforward motive." "Your client killed over money, possession of his website." "You need a straightforward alternative." "Jealousy." " Who's jealous?" " Onya." " But she'll plead the fifth." " Right." "So use her." "Onya, you're familiar with Mr. Kimball's accountant," "Jeanine Derbeken?" "What do you mean, familiar?" " You know who she is." " Yes." "This should be interesting." " You have to go?" " Yeah." "Take care." "And you knew that Jeanine would often stay in Kimball's hotel room when he travelled?" " No." " You didn't know that?" "But you also travelled with Mr. Kimball." " I did." "Yeah." " And did you ever fight with Jeanine?" "With...?" "No." "You never fought over the attentions of Mr. Kimball?" " Objection." " Sustained." "So, Onya, the week before the murder, this is the week Mr. Kimball received the leaked video, did you and Mr. Kimball travel to Washington, D. C?" "It's a simple question, Onya." "Did you and Mr. Kimball stay together in Washington, D. C?" "I refuse to answer on the grounds that it may incriminate me." "Are you sure that's what you wanna do?" "You're pleading the fifth?" " Yes." " You're worried about relating what happened with the victim in Washington, D. C?" "I refuse to answer on the grounds that it may incriminate me." "Miss, I wanna make sure I understand what you're saying." " Your Honor, the witness..." " Are you pleading the fifth because you were involved in Mr. Kimball's murder or because...?" "Your Honor, it is not your place to ask my witness." "Yes, it is, Mrs. Florrick." "Now, you are taking the fifth...?" "Your Honor, if you compel my witness to answer this question," " I'm moving for an immediate mistrial." " Denied." "I'm asking a simple question." " You are not." " Mrs. Florrick..." "You are piercing the fifth amendment right." " Mrs. Florrick, shut up." " No, sir." "Excuse me?" "As long as you are attempting to circumvent her fifth-amendment right, I will not shut up." "You will shut up or be held in contempt." "Hold me in contempt." "And I will refer this to the judicial conduct committee for immediate action." "This court will adjourn until tomorrow morning." "I'm almost done." "What are you up to?" "Peter." "I saw you in court today." "Yeah?" "You were amazing." "Peter, I've gotta study." "Peter, I have to study." "Okay." "Let me." "Let's go at this from a different angle." "Do you know of any motive Mr. Salle might have had to murder Mr. Kimball?" "I refuse to answer on the grounds that it might incriminate me." "You pleading the fifth because you were involved in the murder...?" "I refuse to answer on the grounds that it might incriminate me." "So you wanna follow me again, have me do your work for you?" "Nope, I have something for you." "Picked it up on my police scanner." "A kid found the murder weapon down by the river." "Russian-made Makarov, semiautomatic." " The cops have it?" " Checking it for prints now." "My guess is your client didn't wipe it down." " How long do we have?" " You Chicago cops are slow, but I'd say you got a few minutes." "And you still wanna plead the fifth?" " I refuse to answer..." " No more questions." "Mrs. Florrick, your next witness." "Defense rests, Your Honor." "We have to refute the blood evidence." "Defense rests." "The people are unprepared for closing arguments." "That's unfortunate, Mr. Agos, because I am." " We request a five-minute recess." " No, Mr. Agos." "This trial's gone on much longer than I anticipated and I'm tired." "So you go now, or you don't go." "And where does that leave the defense?" "In tatters." "Look at their witnesses." "Oops, I'm sorry, their one witness." "Your Honor, I need to interrupt." "Police have uncovered a new piece of evidence." "Mr. Brody, you know as well as I that once prosecution starts its closing arguments, there is no new evidence." "Your Honor, but these are extraordinary circumstances." "Well, that's unfortunate, Mr. Brody." "If the jury deadlocks, you may use your extraordinary circumstances in the next trial." "The jury will ignore Mr. Brody's statements." "You may continue, Mr. Agos." "Hey." "About your peer-review suggestion, we thought we could try it for one year" " as a pilot program." " Okay." "Oh, and we're still working on getting you a smaller office without a window, but in the meantime, you'll have to live with this." "Thank you." " You shoot the hoops?" " I do." "We got an afternoon league." "A few judges, lawyers." "We could use some Baltimore blood." "Oh, you can't handle some Baltimore blood." "Ha, ha." "That's how it starts." " Still deliberating?" " Yeah." "You know that gun they found, feds have a way of making this stuff pop up right when they need it." "They're offering you five years." "They're..." "Who is?" "The state's attorney's office." "Five years, second degree." "But you're not..." "I mean, we're not considering it." "Yes, we are." "It just takes one." " Yeah, it just takes one to deadlock." " Yes." "And if the jury deadlocks, the gun is in." "A deadlock works against you." " I can say the government planted it..." " Oh, Vance, stop it." "You did it." "Right now, you're in control." "Once that jury comes in, it's out of your hands." "Take the five years." "Did he take it?" "The five years?" "Yes." "It was a smart move." "I'm your new mentor." "See you tomorrow morning."
