"PILOT (over radio):" "Almost to altitude." "Three minutes to jump." "We're all good!" "Looking forward to this, Walt." "Yeah, whoo!" "12,000 feet!" "You guys pumped?" "!" "I am so pumped, Governor!" "DEAN:" "Ha-ha!" "I just wanted all of you to experience this thrill with me." "Because I know, the next few weeks, it might feel like a free fall." "But we're gonna get through it, okay?" " And why is that?" " PILOT:" "One minute to jump." "Because we're a team." "No, we're family." "And that's what families do." "Families stick together." "Am I right?" " Right!" "Yes, sir!" " Am I right?" "Yes, sir!" "Yes!" "Do you know when it's gonna happen, sir?" "DEAN:" "Ronnie thinks it's gonna come out in the next few days." " WALT:" "Here we go!" " All right!" "Whoo!" "Governor Whitfield, you'll be up first, and I'll be right behind you." "See you on the ground, Governor." "Ha-ha!" "Geronimo!" "(whooping)" "(whooping)" "Yeah!" "(grunts)" "(cords snap)" "(gasping)" "Help!" "Help me!" "Help me!" "I can't let this happen!" "Help!" "Help me!" "Help me!" "Help me!" "I got you!" "I got you!" "DEAN:" "Help me!" "WALT:" "I got you!" "Just hold on!" "Governor Whitfield was an experienced skydiver, having jumped several dozen times." "The FAA recently concluded that the governor's primary and reserve parachutes both malfunctioned." "Walter Hyland, owner of Hyland Skydiving, apparently died heroically while attempting to rescue him." "The dive was supposed to be a team-building exercise with his chief of staff Travis Robbins, treasurer Avery Tottenham, and lieutenant governor Garrett Aiken, who has since been sworn in as governor of Connecticut." "Now, five months after the accident, jury selection begins in the wrongful-death lawsuit led by the late governor's widow, Addison Whitfield, against the skydiving company." "This lawsuit is not about the money." "I'm doing this for my husband, who deserves justice." "(reporters clamoring)" "Mrs. Whitfield just wants Hyland Skydiving to be held responsible for her husband's death so a tragedy like this never happens to anyone else." "Our girl Liberty is moving up in the world." "I feel like a proud parent." "Bigger cases beget bigger cases." "I was thinking maybe we should let her spread her wings on this one." "Okay." "But she doesn't need us." "A skydiving company should give their clients parachutes that, you know, open." "It's no slam dunk." "The governor signed a liability waiver." "Yeah, and the waiver can be broken if Liberty proves either gross negligence or willful misconduct." "We both know how clever she is." "She'll be able to get past the waiver." "Not worried about Liberty." "Well, then, why would she need our help?" "(chuckles) She doesn't." "Wait, we're not joining Liberty's team, are we?" "No..." "You're actually considering going up against her?" " Yeah." " Well, uh..." "BULL:" "The owner of the company, Walt Hyland, died in the accident, and his daughter Dylan and his brother Max run this company now." "What do you think she'll say?" " The daughter?" " No, Liberty." "You do realize we're not her parents, right?" "I just don't want her to feel blindsided by us." "Didn't you just say that we should let her spread her wings?" "Why this case, Bull?" "I mean, the governor's widow has the public behind her, not to mention the courts and a lot of money and resources." "I'd say it's time to level the playing field." "So there it is." "You think this is Goliath picking on David again." "All I know is a skydiving company with a 27-year spotless safety record becomes a national villain overnight." "I'm intrigued, and a little hungry." "We should have stopped at that barbecue joint." "Sometimes in David versus Goliath," "David deserves to lose." "I'll call the author of the Bible and tell him you have a few notes on one of his stories." "Thanks for calling." "Uh, hi." "Uh, can I help you?" "Hi." "I'm Dr. Jason Bull." "This is my colleague Marissa Morgan." "We left a message." "I'm sorry you came all this way, but we can't afford to bring on a trial consultant." "As you can see, business isn't exactly booming at the moment." "Before the accident, we had 24 employees." "Now we only have six." "We understand." "Just want to hear your side of the story." "Okay, sure." "Oh, this is my Uncle Max." "Max, this is Marissa Morgan and Dr. Jason Bull." "Did Dylan mention that we can't afford your services?" "She did." "And we're still here." "DYLAN:" "Max handles our business affairs." "He's also been a real lifesaver for me, after Dad died." "MAX:" "As in-house counsel," "I'll be representing us at the trial." "Didn't the insurance company assign an attorney to litigate the case?" "DYLAN:" "Well, they're expecting us to admit fault, which would destroy my dad's legacy." "MAX:" "Even if we did admit fault, the insurance won't cover the settlement." "It'll bankrupt us." "Why is the governor's widow doing this?" "My dad gave his life trying to save her husband." "She needs someone to blame." "So whose fault was it?" "The FAA ruled that both parachute cords snapped due to wear and tear." "That's impossible." "My dad double-checked every pack before each jump." "He would have easily noticed if those cords were worn." "My dad never would have made that mistake." "Did your father have a separate office?" "Yes." "Can you show it to me?" "(printer whirring)" "Hey." "You gonna be long?" "I just got to scan a couple things." "Uh, no." "Done." "It's all yours, Chunk." "Thanks." "Hey, Benny." "Who's Hayden Watkins?" "Someone I prosecuted a long time ago." "You look exactly the same." "(laughs)" "(chuckles)" "Not on the inside." "So, Hayden Watkins... bad guy?" "Yeah, bad guy." "This is you." "Telluride." "Four years ago." "I was training for the X Games." "Wow." "You're the real deal, huh?" "I used to be, I guess." "Haven't been able to do much of anything since... you know, the accident." "I haven't even been able to jump with our clients." "How's that make you feel?" "Out there." "Competing in the X Games?" "Fearlessness." "Is there such a thing?" "Of course." "(sighs)" "If anyone was fearless, it was my dad." "He was the real deal." "People used to tell me I was just like him." "But lately I've been nothing but afraid." "Afraid of losing the company he built." "Afraid of not being able to restore his name." "(sighs)" "Is there anything else I can show you," "Dr. Bull?" "No, this is great." "Thank you, Dylan." "BULL:" "Her father was meticulous." "Had an engineer's mindset." "Believed in redundancy..." "two sets of keys, two calendars, both filled out." "Somebody like that doesn't forget to check parachutes multiple times." "Well, it doesn't matter." "Both parachutes still malfunctioned, so even if he did check them, he's still at fault for not discovering that the cords were worn and about to break." "That's gross negligence, which is all Liberty needs to get around the waiver." "Unless..." "You don't need to pause for dramatic effect." "Unless, when Walt checked those parachutes, they were in perfect condition." "But, then, why did they break?" "A popular U.S. governor died." "Maybe he wasn't popular with everyone." "Bull..." "It wasn't gross negligence." "Walt didn't make a mistake." "He followed the same procedure he had for years." "And if that's the case, somebody sabotaged the governor's parachutes." "Wait, so who are we pointing the finger at?" "Danny's investigating everyone who had access to the governor's parachutes." "Chunk." "Did you put all that GoPro footage together?" "It's good to go." "Let's focus on senior staff." "Who had motive?" "Everyone has certainly moved on to bigger and better things." "Well, former lieutenant governor" "Garrett Aiken is now the governor of Connecticut." "Nice upgrade there." "Former chief of staff Travis Robbins is now partner at Gage/White, and former treasurer Avery Tottenham runs one of the most successful hedge funds in the country." "Let's find out how they felt about their boss." " DYLAN:" "Excuse me, Dr. Bull?" " Max, Dylan." "We were just getting started." "We're talking about bosses." "Everybody hates the boss, don't they?" "Not everybody." " "Hate's" a strong word." "I wouldn't say hate." " CABLE:" "No!" "Oh, look at you scramble." "It's adorable." "MAX:" "I know you guys are the experts on strategy, but I'm not sure I'm comfortable with this." "My brother was a good man;" "the last thing he would want is an innocent person to be accused of murder." "Do you think this was Walt's fault?" "Of course not." "Neither do I." "So, if our strategy of pointing the finger helps us find out who actually did this, then you and Dylan get to keep your company, and the governor's widow gets justice." "Okay, let's talk about voir dire." "Who do we not want on the jury?" "Her." "We do not want risk-takers." "People who don't take risks like to blame people who do." "They'll blame the skydiver and not the skydiving company." "There's our jury plan." "Let's keep her off the jury and find some people who don't take risks." "Hello, Dr. Bull." "Liberty." "So... here we are." "Opposing sides." "Here we are." "Um, I have to admit, I was surprised to hear you took this case..." "pro bono, I'm assuming... out of all the other cases in the entire country." "But still, no hard feelings." "Good luck, Liberty." "Why did you say it like that?" "How'd I say it?" "It was a little adversarial." "Well, we are adversaries." "So, the gloves are off already?" "You're not gonna get inside my head, Dr. Bull." "I wasn't trying to." "Sounds like I'm already in there." "You're not." "Okay." "Raise your hand if you like camping." "MARISSA:" "How'd it go with Liberty?" "She's fine." "How come you don't like camping?" "Just doesn't seem very safe." "That's okay." "So, for those of you who do like camping, raise your hand if you've ever purchased bear repellant." "Plaintiff would like to strike jurors three, five and 11." "She's weeding out all the risk-averse jurors." "Striking all our favorites." "Looks like Liberty did her homework." "This isn't really the time for a proud-parent moment, Marissa." "Please raise your hand if your favorite color is red." "Raise your hand if your least favorite color is red." "Okay." "She might be taking this personally." "MARISSA:" "It's not all about you, Bull." "MAX:" "Please raise your hand if you don't buy extra insurance when you rent a car." "Please raise your hand if you always buy extra insurance when you rent a car." " Taxi or Uber?" " Subway?" "Raise your hand if you think you deserve a raise." "Please raise your hand if you would feel burdened if you went to work tomorrow and your salary was tripled." "He's the one I want." "Jacob." "She doesn't know if she should strike him." "Doesn't realize he's risk averse." "Come on, Liberty." "Don't do it." "Hmm." "Acceptable to the plaintiff, Your Honor." "It's more fun than I thought it'd be." "DANNY:" "I'm writing an article for Visionary Weekly, ranking the top PR firms in New York." "I'm sure you know we have unparalleled resources here." "I'm very proud of what we've built." "It's very impressive, and in such a short time." "So, before this, you worked for the late Connecticut governor, Dean Whitfield?" "I was his press secretary." "You know, that must've been a really difficult transition for you." "Do you mind talking about the skydiving accident?" "I don't mind, but I wasn't there, so there's not much I can say about it." "Well, you may not have been there physically, but you certainly were there in spirit." "What do you mean?" "Well, I obtained some video footage from the plane that day." "AVERY:" "Do you know when it's gonna happen, sir?" "DEAN:" "Ronnie thinks it's gonna come out in the next few days." "We need to prepare for the worst." "DANNY: "Ronnie thinks it's going to come out in the next few days."" "You're Ronnie, right, Veronica?" "What was coming out in the next few days?" "It was a chaotic time." "I-I don't remember." "You don't remember preparing for the worst?" "Stellar damage control." "Tell me how you dealt with this." "Okay." "Off the record." "Understood." "There was an FBI investigation into Governor Whitfield." "Some false accusations." "After he died, they closed it, as they should have." "There's no reason for any of this to be in your article." "Oh, you have my word." "This will never be mentioned in Visionary Weekly." "Perfect." "Let's continue." "Let's." "MARISSA:" "Well, it's not an ideal jury, but pretty solid, considering Liberty guessed our strategy, and used all her strikes on risk-averse jurors." "This case is about control, risk and fear." "Everybody's afraid of something, usually something they don't understand." "CABLE:" "Oh, I understand spiders, but I'm still afraid of them." "BULL:" "But there are fears we all share:" "failure, success, interestingly, death... and intimacy." "Wait, why look at me when you say intimacy?" "Well, I'm most afraid of an IRS audit." "That's more of an admission of guilt than anything else, but it's a very popular fear." "Oh." "Glad to know that I'm not original." "(chuckles) Benny?" "What you afraid of?" "Making a mistake." "Fear of failure, previously mentioned." "Well, she didn't strike our top pick, Jacob." "Yeah, what makes him good for us?" "He's got a strong fear of losing control." "I think he's a perfectionist, but outside the box." "He needs to know the outcome before it happens." "You just described yourself." "You like Jacob because he's basically your mirror." "Back to work, everyone!" "Uh, forgetting something?" "Your biometric watch." "So we can keep tabs on your juror." "BULL:" "I get it." "Hey." "Got a minute?" "Depends." "Another favor?" "Maybe." "I'm all out of favors." "Aw, since when?" "Oh, since you got the last three." "Favors usually go both ways." "I'm starting to feel used here." "Oh." "Should I do you a favor, then?" "Mm." "That'd be nice." "Like right now?" "I could use a coffee." "Iced latte." " Seriously?" " Yeah." "A coffee?" "This must be a really big favor." "What do you need?" "So, we are representing the skydiving company in Governor Whitfield's wrongful death lawsuit." "I just met with his former press secretary, and she told me that the FBI was investigating Whitfield during the time of his death." "RICK:" "Uh, this was an investigation out of the Washington Field Office." "Ongoing for two years." "How's the boyfriend?" "Gabe was his name?" "We're fine." "He's fine." "Everything's fine." "Looks like Governor Whitfield was under investigation for corruption." "At the time of the accident, a federal grand jury was about to indict him on 28 counts." "Whoa." "Obviously, this is highly-sensitive information, so you cannot disclose." "Don't worry." "I know the drill." "Now, we have to find out who had access to the governor's parachutes that day." "So, we're gonna retrace their steps." "Where's Chunk?" "He's afraid of heights." "Wait, does that mean we're...?" "Class starts in five minutes!" "Yes." "BULL:" "In Walt's flight logs, he noted that he packed the governor's parachutes at precisely 4:17 the afternoon before the accident." "He then locked it up until he retrieved it the following day." "Governor Whitfield and his senior staff arrived around 6:00 a.m." "for their Accelerated Free Fall program." "That class lasted about four hours." "INSTRUCTOR:" "There we go." "Perfect." " Nice." " Good job." "You got it." "One, pull." "Two, hold the safety altitude." "Three, pull stable." "Four, land safely." "(quietly):" "This is gonna take four hours?" "Everybody ready?" " Thumbs up?" " Thumbs up." "Let's go have some fun." "Good." "Let's head out." "Thanks, boss." "Between that moment and the time the governor jumped, we know someone cut the cords on his parachutes." "Couldn't have been easy." "CABLE:" "Are you kidding?" "I've had at least three opportunities to cut your cords." "BULL:" "They walked directly from the lockers to the plane, and were together the entire time." "So, they probably did it right here." "You okay?" "Yeah." "So, when do we jump?" "We're not jumping." "What?" "You can tell the pilot to turn the plane around, head back." "But I want to jump." "Yeah, why did we take a four-hour class if we're not gonna jump?" "We were retracing steps." "I'm with Bull." "There's a perfectly good runway about ten minutes from here." "But, Bull, how are you a pilot and scared to jump?" "I don't have a fear, I just have a healthy respect for gravity." "All right, if they want to jump, they should jump." "They're fully prepped." " It's safe." " (whoops)" "♪ It's all right, baby... ♪" "BULL:" "Just remember to pull your rip cord." "I'll see you at the office." "Okay." "Ready?" "(whoops)" "Okay, I'm ready." "BULL:" "You're up, blondie." "I hope I see you at the office." "Get it, girl." "(Marissa screams)" "♪ Doesn't mean there ain't honey inside. ♪" "BULL:" "Looks like we've got ourselves a murder mystery." "Now we just need to solve it." "All three of these people have motive and opportunity." "If the governor's senior staff was involved in the corruption, why did the FBI shelve the investigation?" "Well, my contact said Governor Whitfield was the big fish." "Everyone knows that the senior staff usually takes the fall." "BULL:" "Unless they flip." "Testify against the boss to gain immunity." "Which is why Whitfield took them on that team-building exercise, keep them close." "I got to admit, I'm still feeling the adrenaline rush of that jump." "Me, too." "It was life-changing." "It was an eye-opening, team-building exercise." "You didn't even jump." "Not all bonding is with the boss." "Right." "Thanks, Bull." "It was almost as fun as High-Five Day." "I forgot about High-Five Day!" "Oop. (chuckles)" "Are we seriously considering putting Governor Aiken on the stand?" "Not if the governor has anything to do with it." "Check this out." "Ah, yes." "You know, I've always liked the seal of the state of Connecticut." "It's sturdy yet soft." "MARISSA:" "This is a cease and desist from the Connecticut attorney general." "We have been put on notice that it will be considered harassment if we contact any of the governor's former staff." "It's all bark, very little that's actionable." "It's just a warning." "Am I the only one that's intimidated by all of this?" "These guys could bury us." "Plus, it seems a little bit unethical" " to point a finger at a sitting governor." " BULL:" "We won't, not until we've ruled out the other suspects." "The evidence that Danny brought us on Travis and Avery should be enough to go after them." "Wait, we can't bring this evidence up in court." "BULL:" "It's relevant to our defense." "The judge will allow it." "No, what I mean is, um, I promised my contact that this wouldn't get out." "The details are specific to the FBI's investigation." "If it gets out, I-I could burn my source." "We need to convince the jury it was sabotage." "This evidence provides motive." "You deal with your source, Danny." "Okay." "Just to be clear, you want me to accuse two of the former governor's staff of murder." "Just to be clear, yes." "MARISSA:" "Hey." "Uh, Chunk, got a sec?" "Yeah, I was just tinkering with, uh, Max's look for the trial." "I'm thinking British traditional." "Okay, this might be a mistake." "The color or cut?" "No, uh, the suit is great." "I just am worried about Max trying this case." "Maybe we should put Benny on it." "Bull's got his eye on him." "Max has been resistant to our strategy." "I mean, if he doesn't fully commit, the jury'll know." "He hasn't been in front of a jury in years." "Well, at least he'll look good." "I'm serious, Chunk." "Look, I know." "I've been working with him on his presentation, his posture; he's doing his best." "Max is trying to save his company." "He just lost his brother, and clearly that impacted him." "The jury will feel his pain." "Just got to give him a chance." "Okay." "But Benny is on deck." "We need to have a quick hook in case Max can't get his head in the game." "You were Governor Whitfield's chief of staff." "Yes." "Did you like him?" "Objection." "Relevance." "Overruled." "Witness can answer." "I liked him very much." "No, I did not like him, at all." "Why not?" "He was an arrogant, lying blowhard." "At least she's honest." "Well, oddly enough, they like her." "So do I." "Why were you skydiving that day?" "Governor Whitfield loved team-building activities." "One year, we drove race cars." "Last year, we did paintball." "This year, skydiving." "What if you were afraid to jump" " out of a plane?" " I wasn't afraid." "Avery and Garrett were a little scared." "I was pumped. (chuckles)" "So we hate this guy, right?" "MARISSA:" "Mirror Bull does not like this guy." "There is no Mirror Bull." "AVERY:" "Governor Whitfield would take us on these thrill-seeking adventures to show off." "I guess the last one didn't turn out too good for him." "Ouch." "MAX:" "Isn't it true a corruption scandal involving all of you was about to come out?" "Objection!" "This is clearly a cheap stunt by the defense, in an attempt to distract the jury from the facts of this case." "This case is about fault in a skydiving accident." "We believe the two are connected." "On what planet?" "Your Honor, the governor's senior staff has been implicated in an investigation alleging they accepted bribes for political gain." "I've made copies for everyone and would like to enter them into evidence." "(scoffs)" "JUDGE:" "I'll allow it." "Would you like me to repeat the question?" "That's not necessary." "At this time, I'd like to invoke my Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination." "MAX:" "Did you... sabotage Governor Whitfield's parachutes?" "Did you murder your boss?" "I did not." "Of course not." "No." "MARISSA:" "The jurors all believe 'em, Bull." "So do I." "Neither of these staffers killed Whitfield." "What's our next move?" "This murder is looking like a power play by Aiken to become governor." "I think we have no choice but to put Governor Aiken on the stand." "Why didn't you tell Rick you broke up with Gabe?" "Why does it matter?" "Because you like him and you're single." "When did I say I liked him?" " You told me he asked you about Gabe." " So?" "Before you mentioned the corruption scandal." "I was just telling you about our meeting in chronological order." " Right." " Can we just focus?" "Aiken is taking the stand any minute, and we need something on him." "(sighs)" "Okay, it's not very juicy." "But when he was lieutenant governor," "Aiken moved his office to another building." "You're right, that's not juicy." "A week before the accident." "Juicier." "RICK:" "Danny?" "Hey." " Can we speak privately?" " Sure." "Cable." "I'll go tell Bull about the semi-juicy detail." "She broke up with Gabe." "I'll let you go first." "We had to use the information." "Right." "I thought maybe you would lead off with some sort of apology." "I mean, you could've given me a warning." "I am sorry, Rick, but I didn't have a choice, okay?" "And these people may be suspects in the governor's murder." ""Sensitive and specific to the FBI investigation."" "That's what I said." "I had planned on telling you." "But I didn't have a choice." "This is my fault." "I should've known this would happen." "That's not fair." "No... it's not." "REPORTER:" "Governor Aiken!" "Governor Aiken, any comment?" "No comment." "(reporters clamoring)" "Connecticut Governor Garrett Aiken has arrived at the courthouse and is scheduled to testify today in the wrongful death suit." "Governor Aiken will take the stand shortly." "It is unclear if he will be implicated in the corruption allegations brought up during the former chief of staff Travis Robbins' testimony." "MAX:" "Governor Aiken, would you say that you and Governor Whitfield were friends?" "We had a strong relationship." "But you had differences." "We were both from Connecticut, and we loved our state, but we had different ideas for its future." "MARISSA:" "Oh, as I'm sure you know, the jurors love this guy." "He's a natural leader." "MAX:" "You had ideas, but it didn't matter because he was the governor, not you." "And I accepted that." "And when you became governor, were you able to implement your ideas?" "I changed course on a few things I didn't agree with." "Yes." "But I've done everything in my power to honor" "Governor Whitfield's legacy." "I'm well aware that I wasn't voted into office, he was." "Look, this past year has been difficult on the entire state of Connecticut." "And to be honest, I don't think I could've gotten through it without the love and support of my wife," "Colleen." "Colleen is my rock." "She always steers me in the right direction." "She's been incredible during this difficult time, and I've relied on her thoroughly." "Yeah, the jury just spiked for this guy." "Maybe he should run for president." "GARRETT:" "When I think of how I should fill" "Governor Whitfield's shoes..." "When did Cable say Aiken moved his office to another building?" "(types)" "Six days before the accident." "Why?" "What?" "Bull?" "What's going on?" "Bull, Bull, you should probably have Max cut him off before they throw a parade for Aiken." "(whispers):" "Max." "Come here." "Uh... (clears throat)" "Your Honor, I-I..." "I just have one more question." "About a week before the accident, you moved your office out of the building where Governor Whitfield had his office." "Objection." "Where is this going?" "Let's find out together." "Overruled." "MAX:" "Sir, did you move your office because you found out that" "Governor Whitfield was sleeping with your wife?" "LIBERTY:" "Objection!" "This is completely outrageous and irrelevant." "JUDGE:" "Sounds kind of relevant to me." "Overruled." "The witness will answer the question." "Yes." "That's why I moved my office to another building." "(gallery murmuring)" "So the murder wasn't political, it was personal." "Biometrics have completely shifted on Aiken." "There goes his shot at president." "Do you think this is a game?" "Maybe it's best if we don't interact until after the trial, Liberty." "Exposing an irrelevant affair?" "You couldn't win this case on the facts, so you had to play dirty?" "Uh, I'm on the right side of this one, Liberty." "You know, you always have to be in control, don't you?" "That's not why I took this case." "You saw me on a big case, national news, and you had nothing to do with it." "I didn't call you for help, so you ran to the other side." "Oh, I've learned so much from you, Dr. Bull." "Every time I've worked with you, but this time," "I've learned my biggest lesson." "So thank you for that." "(sighs)" "We have 11 of 12 jurors, one more than we need in a civil trial." "BENNY:" "So we move on to closing arguments." "Benny, you have a call." "Tell them I'll call them back." "It's the U.S. Attorney's Office." "They say it's important." "I'm not your secretary, man." "So, out of curiosity, who was the lone holdout on the jury?" "Jacob." "Huh." "The man in the mirror." "So you're not convinced it was Aiken, either." "It doesn't matter." "Doesn't it?" "Your Honor, we'd like to call a rebuttal witness." "Dylan Hyland." "(gasps softly)" "LIBERTY:" "Ms. Hyland, first, I am very sorry for your loss." "Thank you." "Were you aware that a few weeks before the accident, the late governor, Dean Whitfield, signed a new zoning bill that would allow for local and regional airports to expand?" "No." "It turns out, the airport your skydiving company leased from was going to expand dramatically, and established airlines were coming in to take over the existing hangars and runways." "What are you talking about?" "It's right here." "In fact, two days before the accident, your company received notification that its lease would not be renewed at the airport, effectively shutting you down." "Did your father tell you about this?" "No." "I had no idea." "After the governor's death his replacement, Garrett Aiken, reversed the new zoning laws, which ended up saving your company." "So maybe you should be thanking him instead of accusing him of murder." "Here is a portion of the videos obtained from Governor Whitfield's and your father's GoPro cameras moments before the accident." "I don't want to see this." "MARISSA:" "What's Liberty doing?" "Attacking." "DEAN:" "You okay, Walt?" "You don't seem like yourself today." "Should we not do this?" "WALT:" "I'm okay." "Just business stuff." "DEAN:" "All good?" "I hope so." "(grunts, cords snap)" "DEAN:" "Help me!" "WALT:" "I can't let this happen!" " I got you, I got you!" " Help me!" "Help!" " I got you!" " Help me!" "Just hold on!" "LIBERTY:" "Governor Whitfield signed a bill that was going to put your father out of business." "I know this is difficult to hear, Ms. Hyland, but your father sabotaged the governor's parachutes." "Objection!" "This is a preposterous theory fabricated by Ms. Davis to further slander my brother's name!" "The defense has their theory, and we have ours." "We have motive, we have audio of the murderer changing his mind at the last minute." "You heard him." ""I can't let this happen""" "So it wasn't Governor Aiken who killed him." "That leaves only one person with motive and means to kill the governor." "MARISSA:" "Bull, what are you thinking?" "BULL:" "In order to win this case, we're gonna have to change our strategy for your closing, Max." "What would you like me to say?" "Now we know Walt was responsible for the governor's death." "Right?" "Maybe you shouldn't be in here for this." "BULL:" "I'd like her to stay." "The only way we win this case is for you to get out in front of that jury and tell them Walt did this." "Uh, you want me to, um... tell the jury... that my brother murdered the governor?" "But he was acting outside the scope of his employment, which proves that the company's not liable." "I just don't know if I can do that." "Here, I prepared your summation for you." "All you have to do is read it." "I'd like to hear it out loud." ""My brother..." ""..." "Walt became a bitter, angry, vengeful man."" "Keep reading." ""He murdered the governor... to get back at him."" "(inhales sharply)" "I-I can't do this." "You have to, Max." "He blamed me." "(sniffles)" "He thought it was my fault the company was going under." "He blamed me." "Who did?" "Walt." "The airport wasn't gonna renew the lease." "He assumed that I screwed it up again, that I missed a deadline or something, but I didn't." "It wasn't my fault, it wasn't... (sniffles) He-he fired me." "I gave 22 years to that company." "I gave 22 years to him." " I gave my whole life!" "My whole life!" " (pounds on table)" "And it was Governor Whitfield's fault." "It was his fault." "It was all his fault." "And I wanted him to pay." "So I checked to see the next time that he was gonna be in." "And Walt went through the packs, and he double and triple checked everything like he always did." "And after he locked it all up," "I did it, I frayed the cords." "I'm so sorry, honey." "I'm so sorry." "I just want it all to be over." "It's over." "(talking quietly)" "Excuse me, can I have a minute?" "No, I think you were right." "I think we should wait until after the trial." "It's important." "Will you give us a minute?" "You should both hear this." "Max Hyland turned himself in to the police today." "He confessed to killing your husband." "Dylan is the only person left at Hyland Skydiving." "She's lost her father, now her uncle." "So I'm asking you, please don't take away the only thing she has left that reminds her of her father." "After everything you've exposed during this trial?" "My husband's infidelities, corruption?" "You've destroyed his legacy." "I know." "I'm sorry." "I know this has been very painful, but why punish Dylan for that?" "Max is going to prison for the rest of his life." "Walt cared about your husband." "And he died trying to save his life." "Do you think you can let go of this so everyone can move on?" "Yes." "Oh, I hope so." "So, about what I said earlier..." "I liked seeing this side of you;" "she should come out more often." "I'll check her schedule." "(chuckles)" "You were right." "About what?" "Well, I was intrigued about this case because you were on it and I wasn't." "That's worrisome." "Should I expect this challenge every time I'm on my own case?" "Maybe." "Without you, we don't solve this." "We were looking in the wrong direction." "You pointed the finger at Walt." "Which was a little heartless, by the way." "I learned from the best." "I guess we make a good team, even when we're on opposing sides." "Hmm." "Until next time." "Liberty, you said you learned your biggest lesson from me on this case." "Can you tell me what it was?" "How to win." "I brought a peace offering." "Coffee." "I can't accept that." "Why not?" "Well, I'm on a short leash here." "You give me that, I'm gonna have to fill out a gift receipt." "Okay." "I'll take it." "But it's mocha mint." "Just don't tell anyone." "I'm really sorry, Rick." "It'll never happen again." "So why didn't you tell me you broke up with Gabe?" "I don't know." "What, you thought I was gonna ask you out or something?" "Would you have asked me out?" "I guess we'll never know now." "(scoffs)" "So you want to grab a drink?" "CHUNK:" "Hey, man." "You good?" "Yeah." "I don't know." "You want to talk about it?" "(sniffs)" "Remember the guy I told you I prosecuted?" "Hayden Watkins?" "Yeah." "Turns out he may be innocent." "New DNA evidence." "But I thought you said he was a bad guy." "Thought he was." "How long has he been inside?" "Nine years." "His wife... remarried and... started a whole new family." "I may have destroyed an innocent man's life." "You know this is statistically safer than cheerleading?" "That's my kind of statistic, but it can't possibly be true." "Look it up." "(laughs)" "You don't have to do this." "Yes, I do." "♪ ♪" "You're the real deal, Dylan." "Your father would want you to live your life the way he did." "Fearless." "You good?" "Ready?" ""It's safer than cheerleading."" "♪ Follow me down ♪" "(whoops)" "♪ Don't let me, don't let me ♪" "♪ Don't let me drown ♪" "♪ Than only my life to live ♪" "♪ I'd rather have life to give. ♪"
