The Good Wife s03e15 Episode Script

Live From Damascus

Again, I wanna thank you for your service.
My assistant will validate your parking.
I'm sending these infractions of Mr.
Gardner's to the bar association.
If you won't pursue him, they will.
Do what you gotta do.
Now get out of my office.
It's over.
It is.
- Odd, huh? - Get used to it.
- Diane, Viola Walsh on line one.
- Yeah.
Be right there.
- Syria? - Yeah, we go to court tomorrow.
My guess, an 11th hour offer.
Oh, and, Will, Cary Agos for you.
There it is.
The official word.
Or he wants to indict me again.
Hey, Cary, how are you doing? - I'm okay.
- I think you know why I'm calling.
- I hope I know why you're calling.
You're safe.
No indictment.
And we're not coming after you again.
- Thanks.
- No, you guys, you played this smart.
Go celebrate.
Thanks, man.
You have 23 calls.
All congratulations.
Six judges among them, and Lionel Deerfield.
He said it was important you call him tonight.
It's an emergency.
Yep.
I think I can do without Lionel Deerfield's good cheer tonight.
We're on our way in there.
No, we're setting things up there.
Okay, thanks, Alicia.
See you in a minute.
- I want in.
- Ha-ha-ha.
I handed it off when I thought I was going to jail.
I'm not going to jail.
You had a brush with death, my friend.
Take a week.
No.
The adrenaline's pumping.
I'm ready to take someone down.
Okay then.
Let's take them down.
Hi.
- Hi.
I'm so glad, Will.
Really.
- I am too.
Thank you.
Anyway, they're gonna be here in a few minutes for negotiations.
- Can you greet them? - Sure.
Viola Walsh? Yeah.
Why? Last time she was here, she asked me to join her firm.
Really? Maybe you can use that.
Miss Walsh.
Mr.
Gross.
Yes, and you're? Alicia Florrick.
Oh, yes, right.
So this is where creativity goes to die.
Oh, no, that's the next floor.
Is that supposed to be funny? It is.
Oh, I didn't think it was funny.
Must have been my delivery.
This way, please.
Diane.
William.
- My two favorite people.
- Viola, always a pleasure.
- Neil Gross in his patented hoodie.
- Just waiting to get my blood sucked.
We seem to be catching you in a party.
Casual Wednesdays.
Wow, look at these wonderful exhibits.
Oh, you just seem to be girding yourself for battle, aren't you? - Hello.
- Oh, this is Caitlin.
She's sitting in.
Can we start? Mr.
Gross, hello.
You created a suite of software Excuse me, we don't need to review the case.
Oh, this isn't a review.
This is my opening argument.
You created a suite of decryption software entitled CoursePoint.
It's not decryption software.
It's data mining.
And your company sold it to the Syrian government.
- We would deny that.
- And the Syrian Electronic Army used this software to decrypt and obstruct private e-mails and chats in order to arrest, torture and murder protesters.
We represent the three American protesters.
And we are asking that their families be awarded and 16 million for pain and suffering.
Maybe my taste for hypocrisy is at an all-time low.
Discussing dissidents while party music is playing in the next room.
Can we just get to the core of the problem? You don't care about these protestors.
You care about your top client, Patric Edelstein.
Battling me for control of the international software market.
This is one attempt to embarrass me in order to make way for him.
It's death by a thousand paper cuts.
This is one paper cut.
Yes, we represent your chief competitor.
But, no, this is not about paper cuts.
This is about the families of Mohammed Hazouri, - Amy Newton and Sara Fellner.
- Okay.
Look, all good to know.
But here's our offer.
Are you ready? A hundred thousand dollars in an endowed scholarship to advance the causes exemplified by these fine youths.
And a joint statement of agreement saying that we will more strictly supervise third-party sales of our software.
That's why you brought us in here? May I speak to you for a moment, please? Caitlin, I know you thought you were being helpful in there, - but you really shouldn't talk.
- Will asked me to.
He What? Will asked me to say that, no matter what their offer was.
How close are we, Samir? Why? Is there somewhere else you need to be? Yeah.
You know, it's tough getting across town.
You need to come to Syria, Kalinda.
You live in boredom.
Our days are filled with excitement.
You make it sound very tempting.
Two protesters dead in Damascus today.
Yes, I know, l I should have confirmation on the middleman in three minutes.
You keeping yourself safe there? Oh, yes, I have friends in Mukhabarat, the Shabiha and the protestors.
I have covered my bases well.
Oh, I saw Barbara Walters yesterday.
- Really? - Yes.
She was here to interview our president.
She had much bigger hair than I thought.
Excuse me, Samir.
- Yes, Eli? ELl: Did you talk to Stacie Hall? - It's not a good time.
- No, I need to know now.
Did you talk to Stacie Hall about my ex-wife? Can we discuss this later? I'm on with Syria.
No, Kalinda, I want to Right now.
What's the emergency, Eli? - Why? - Why, what? Why did my ex-wife hire Stacie Hall as her campaign strategist for her upcoming state senate campaign? Why does my ex-husband care? I care because she is my competition, and she has poached three of my clients.
So she's good? Vanessa, she's out to destabilize me, that is why she's offering to represent you.
Oh, really? My mistake.
I thought my campaign was about me.
It's about you.
- This is not narcissism, it's strategy.
- Eli, you turned me down.
- I asked to consult on my campaign.
- Which I did.
Until we got into one of our marital spats, decided not to work together.
I sought out Stacie.
That's all.
She didn't seek me out.
Uh-oh.
Eli's mind is at work.
I get it.
Ha-ha.
I get it.
This is to try and get me back on your campaign.
- Oh, my God.
- You're telling me it's a coincidence - you pursued my competitor? - I'm not telling you.
Makes sense.
You have your bin Laden problem.
- Didn't know he was a bin Laden.
- If I'm your staff, it looks better.
"See? Her husband doesn't mind that she slept with a bin Laden.
" Okay, thanks for this.
Whenever I feel nostalgic about our time together, Eli, you always toss me one of these bracing little tête-à-têtes.
Okay, okay, wait, wait.
- Don't go with the green border.
- It's about the environment.
Yeah, voters don't think nature when they see green.
They think bad skin.
Look at the McCain campaign.
And that is not your best side.
You know, you need warmer lighting.
Gold is good for you.
Stacie thought gold was too on-the-nose.
Oh, jeez.
On-the-nose is good.
You're not trying to win the Nobel.
Okay.
Thanks, Eli.
Do you really get nostalgic about our time together? Good night, Eli.
Here's your problem, to win, you need to prove two things.
One, that my client knowingly sold the software to Syria, a high bar in itself.
And, two, that he knew that the software would be used to capture and kill protesters.
Good luck with that.
- You've got the invoice in your hand? - Yes.
It was routed through Dubai.
Thanks, Samir.
I'll be in touch, okay? No, no.
I will be in touch with you, okay? Just send me an e-mail with three question marks, and I will call you, okay? It's safer that way.
Okay, good.
Stay safe, my friend.
As kind as your financial offer is, we'll take our chances in court.
Don't you wanna check with your clients? They've given us permission to reject unreasonable amount.
- Well, you're not gonna get anymore.
- I'll make it my life's mission to get more.
- That was odd.
- What was? The offer was too lowball.
It's like they're challenging us to take it to court.
Hello, Lionel.
I would've called, but it's been crazy here.
Hello, Will.
Can we go someplace private? Sure.
This way.
Things seem to be falling apart here.
So, what's the emergency? Have you talked to anybody at the bar? At the bar? What bar? The bar's Attorney Compliance and Disciplinary Board.
Oh, no.
Why? We're pursuing your disbarment.
- What are you talking about? - I'm on the review panel.
I know I shouldn't be saying anything.
I've been sworn to confidentiality, but we've received anonymous charges that you took $45,000 from a client's account.
And put it back 15 years ago.
There's no statute of limitations with disbarment.
We start disciplinary proceedings tomorrow.
I'm sorry.
I just I thought you should know.
Don't say I said anything.
Before we begin, I want to take a few minutes to talk about something that is happening a mere 100 yards from this courthouse.
Occupy Wall Street.
Yes, these amazing young men and women are braving 36 degree weather with the grit in their eyes of a shared cause.
And all to challenge the system.
And I, for one, I salute them.
Well Oh, sorry.
That's all I wanted to say.
And with that, we should get started, so Do you want me to take the first witness? No, I'm good.
And that's you? - Yes.
And you and your sister were in Syria.
Why? We were studying Arabic at the Al-Baath University in Homs.
- And who is this? - My sister.
Sara.
She told me to take the camera.
She wanted the video to get out.
And then what happened? The officers took us into custody.
Saydnaya Prison in Homs.
And the al-Mukhabarat al-'Askariyya - That's military intelligence? - Yes.
- Had a transcript of a cell call I had with Sara a week earlier.
And he kept repeating it.
- And that's why you were arrested? - Yes.
We discussed joining the protest on the call.
Do you have any idea how they intercepted this call? Yes.
There was a PC in the interrogation room.
And he kept reading it from the screen.
But what does that have to do with Mr.
Gross' company? Couldn't that have been any software? No.
When they took me to my cell, I saw the logo on the screen.
It was the chess piece logo from Chumhum.
That was the last time you saw Sara alive? Yes.
When the guards looked through her passport, they saw a stamp for Israel.
We had gone a year before, but my stamp was too faint to see so they let me go, and they kept her.
You were demonstrating peacefully, Jimmy, you and Sara? Yes.
- Much like Occupy Wall Street here - Oh, come on.
Objection, Your Honor.
I am merely showing the victim's intentions here You're merely playing into His Honor's stated sympathy.
Okay, thank you, both of you.
I think you'll find that I am made of sterner stuff, Mr.
Gardner, Miss? - Walsh.
- Walsh, than to have my sympathies so easily plucked.
- Any further questions? - No, Your Honor.
Mr.
Fellner, you know that Chumhum has many software products - that use the same logo? - Yes.
Business software, word processors, spreadsheets.
And all are designated to use the same chess piece logo.
Yes.
So couldn't it have been one of Mr.
Gross' other software products? Say, his word processing software, for example, that you saw - on the screen you mentioned? - No.
- You aren't certain? All the software has different colored chess pieces.
This chess piece was red.
Just so we're clear, Your Honor, - red is the color of the logo - Objection, Your Honor.
Do we all get to testify into the record now? Okay, we're gonna be making some changes around here, shuffling a few people around.
- Is this about the failed grand jury? - No, this is about a lot of things.
Not just any one thing.
Some of us weren't consulted on that judicial bribery investigation.
We're not gonna finger point around here.
No one's to blame, and everyone's to blame.
So I will be visiting with you each individually to discuss new priorities, all right? Thank you very much.
Too bad that didn't work out for you.
Go to hell.
I heard you did well in court today.
I did.
And yet? The Attorney Compliance and Disciplinary Board is pursuing my disbarment.
But why? The $45,000 I borrowed No statute of limitations.
My guess is Wendy slipped the charges to them as a late hit.
- We have to fight it.
- Fight what? I did it.
- It was a long time ago, but I did it.
- Yes.
And we have to point out their hypocrisy in pursuing you.
One thing I've noticed, people in judgment don't care about their hypocrisy.
Then you have to throw yourself at the mercy of the board.
It never ends, does it? Once they have you in their grasp, they never let go.
Eli.
Diane.
Why are you doing it? Nora, there is someone in my office.
- Why undercutting me with your wife? - Ex-wife.
You can't just come in here.
You call ahead.
Well, you left one of your socks last night.
I needed to return it.
I did not.
That is not my sock.
What am I, Santa? Oh, heh, it's mine.
What's wrong with green? - There's nothing wrong with green.
- For trees and split pea soup, nothing.
But for campaign brochures, it Uh-huh.
This is not Campaign 101.
Then stop undercutting me with your wife.
Then do a better job.
Well, your ex-clients seem to think I'm doing a better job.
- Okay, you got me there.
Goodbye.
- I need to see you again.
- No.
- Last night was amazing.
- I can still taste you this morning.
- Oh, okay, thank you.
Goodbye.
At least 75 people are reported dead in Syria in one of the bloodiest days since the uprising began.
The violence comes a day after 41 people were killed - including five women and a 12 - Hi, remember me? Stacie Hall.
- Yeah.
How are you? - Good.
- I have a quick question.
- Okay.
How did you find out she slept with bin Laden? Why don't we discuss this somewhere else? Sure.
Oh, not that bin Laden.
Not Osama.
Patric Edelstein wants an update.
Conference room.
What? So we are doing this for Edelstein? Conference room.
The class rejected the offer of a scholarship of a hundred thousand dollars and a joint statement.
And so now we're at trial.
- And what are our chances? Fifty-fifty.
But our intent is to use the trial to apply further pressure to Neil Gross and get a more lucrative settlement.
- So I have to ask something of you.
- Okay.
I need you to settle.
Rather not have congress look into our foreign sales of decryption software.
I would imagine that would work for you having congress look into Neil Gross.
No.
On this point, Neil Gross' interests and my interests are aligned.
And Congress will turn this into a circus.
This trial is giving it more prominence.
We don't represent you in this case.
We represent the class.
The three families of the dead protesters.
- Yes, but I referred them to you.
- I understand that.
But when we agreed to take their case, they became our clients, not you.
- I'm sorry.
- This isn't - really what I wanted.
- I'm sorry.
We can't help you here.
Are we gonna be all right here? I don't know.
He may leave.
That's the breaks.
- Mr.
Deerfield, do you have a minute? - Yes.
- Diane Lockhart, right? - Yes.
I'd like to talk to you about Will Gardner.
My name is Kassim Al-Khoury.
I'm a software wholesaler working out of Dubai.
And you've had dealings with Mr.
Gross' company? Yes.
We admire you greatly, Mr.
Gross.
I have read your biography three times.
And where did you have dealings with Mr.
Gross' company? In Dubai.
At the yearly technology trade show.
The trade show colloquially referred to as the Wiretapper's Ball? Yes.
Various Western companies sell their wares there.
And many totalitarian governments shop there for spy tech - and data mining software? - Yes.
But also corporations who want to encourage employee productivity.
Also law enforcement Oh, sorry.
Please continue.
- We can take a break, Your Honor.
- No, no, no.
It's nothing.
Over lunch, I went to offer moral support to Occupy Wall Street, and it's because of the pepper spray.
At the Wiretapper's Ball, you bought some of Mr.
Gross' - CoursePoint software.
- Yes.
- Sold it to representatives of Syria? - Yes.
And this was because Chumhum itself couldn't sell software to the Syrians? Yes, the American trade embargo required using a middleman, that is me.
And this is in fact your invoice, selling CoursePoint to the Syrians? - Yes, it is.
- And did Chumhum know - you were reselling software to Syria? - Oh, yes.
I sent the invoices to them as well.
No further questions.
L Miss Walsh.
- Do you have any questions? - Yes, Your Honor.
You hold a grudge - against Mr.
Gross' firm, don't you? - No.
What do you mean? I mean that you sued Mr.
Gross for nonpayment of debt.
No, we had a disagreement over euro-to-dollar conversions.
Well, didn't Mr.
Gross' company refuse to pay you precisely because you were selling spy software - to Middle Eastern regimes? - No.
That is not true.
No further questions, Your Honor, but we would like to recall Jimmy Fellner.
Why are you suing, Jimmy? Because my sister's dead, and she doesn't have to be.
Sorry.
Ignore me.
And that's why everyone in this class action is suing, right? Yes.
- That's your sister? - Yes.
And who's this? Looks like my sister, but I've never seen that photo before.
- But it would appear to be your sister.
- Yes.
Where was it taken? We just got this photo from a Syrian rebellion website.
- It was taken three days ago.
- Objection, Your Honor.
Why would you object? We've just given your client good news.
His sister is alive.
We have no way to confirm the provenance of this.
Oh, my God.
Jimmy, you yourself said that you're suing because your sister is dead.
This is evidence that she's alive.
Mr.
Will Gardner, one of the objectives of the state bar disciplinary board is to maintain the honor and integrity of the practice of the law and to promote the general welfare of the members thereof.
To this purpose, we have collected sufficient evidence regarding the theft of $45,000, we believe warrants disbarment proceedings.
- Do you understand? - Yes.
In all matters, this board attempts to show deference to any calls for leniency.
It has come to our attention that you have been responsible for the establishment of the pro bono department in your firm.
At a time when most firms are curtailing their pro bono efforts, it is heartening to see that Lockhart Gardner is stepping those efforts up at your direction.
For this reason, we would like to offer you the option of suspension.
Six months probation.
No cases, no clients.
No entering a courtroom except as a private citizen.
And if I decline? Then we proceed to a disbarment hearing, and the determination of this panel will be permanent.
We have to, we have to drop the suit.
That's exactly what the other side wants.
I don't want anything out there that could jeopardize my sister's life.
You're being irrational.
- What if it were Amy? You'd still be thinking about monetary damages? If we walk away, this company goes about its business.
And who's to say there's not another Amy or Sara in the future? That's exactly why.
This is what we have to see.
The majority of the class rules.
Yes, but we put Kalinda on finding out more about Sara.
Good.
I'm on it.
You talked to the board? What did they say? Six months suspension.
How long do you have? They need a decision tomorrow.
Fight it, Will.
Six months away from the law will kill you.
The photo of Sara was on the website of a blogger who goes by Pink Damascus.
A lesbian activist chronicling the protests in Syria.
She's been a huge thorn in the side of the Assad regime.
Can you find her? If we know who took the picture we can find Sara.
I have some ideas.
Caitlin, has Viola asked you to join her firm? Yes.
I said no.
Yes.
Just so you know, other firms will try to distract you by asking you to join them.
It means nothing.
They never trust you if they poach you.
It's best to stay loyal.
- I wasn't taking it seriously.
- I know.
- Am I doing well here? - You are.
Very well.
Good.
Thank you.
This is first-rate idiocy.
Is that why you brought us in here, Eli? To insult me? You slept with a bin Laden.
You can't just ignore that.
- How do you know we're ignoring it? - You grilled Kalinda.
You can't just close off those channels.
You're right, Vanessa.
His left vein in his temple pulsates right when he gets angry.
It won't work.
If Kalinda figured it out, it's only a matter of time - before it becomes public.
- So, what's your suggestion? Own it.
Be the one to bring it forward.
Cloak it in open-mindedness.
Pushing back against anti-Islamic prejudice.
It's only a name.
Our president had the same middle name as a genocidal dictator, and we still elected him.
Heh.
This guy, your hotel financier, the one you slept with while we were married - Eli.
- What? I'm being just as accurate - as the press will be.
- Getting messy.
- Maybe I should just back off.
- Give us a minute.
Sure.
Oh, there my sock is.
So who are you obsessed with, her or me? No one.
I'm just helping.
- I don't like her hurting you.
- Okay.
Do me a favor.
Either stop caring or officially get on board.
So, Cary, how's it hanging? I need you to take a step back from court and do some child support enforcement.
You need me to? Yeah.
We were both on that judicial bribery investigation.
It wasn't just me.
- This is what Peter needs.
- So it's Peter, not you? It's what the office needs.
And you're just gonna go along with it, right? You knew I was following Wendy Scott-Carr's orders, but you don't give a damn? - Dana - No.
You don't get to say it like that.
- No, Mr.
Agos, you don't.
- It won't be very long.
Goodbye.
What does that mean? Yes, I see the photo of Sara, but I cannot help.
It could have been taken anywhere in Syria.
And what about the blog where it surfaced? Can you? Can you help us find Pink Damascus? Samir? Are you there? Samir? I cannot stay long.
I understand.
Yes, yes.
We know this website.
No one really knows where this Pink Damascus is.
If you learn a neighborhood, I will keep trying.
I have to go.
- I can't help.
That's not technically true.
- I thought I was getting an update.
- Pink Damascus has a Sleuthway account, sir, and if we could just contact her Our privacy policy is the cornerstone of my company.
If it got out that I released confidential information Better than if it got out that you prioritized company policy over the life of a 23-year-old girl.
Yeah? - Can I help you? I'm sorry.
I think I got the wrong person.
Who'd you think I was? A lesbian blogger from Syria.
Pink Damascus.
Sorry to disappoint.
Have you heard of her? Yeah.
You know, I keep up with the news.
Yeah.
Imagine the public uproar if it were revealed that Pink Damascus is actually a 30-something-year-old guy living in Kansas.
Pretending.
Where'd you come up with Kansas? Your Rock Chalk pillow, the KU cheer.
You know, you could face felony fraud charges that's five to eight years in federal prison.
- You're lying.
- I work for a law firm.
Try me.
What do you want? He only had an IP address for the person who sent him the photo.
- He? - Yeah, imagine that.
Misrepresenting himself on the Internet.
I traced the address to Homs, an Internet café in the Al-Sinaa district.
Good.
You'll pass this on to your contact in Syria? Yeah.
You wanted to discuss the Neil Gross questioning? Yeah.
No.
- Do you want me to? - No.
Stay.
Close the door a second.
I didn't tell you about the grand jury investigation before, and that was a mistake.
- And you're safe.
- Yes.
I mean, it's moved to a possible disbarment, and I've been given a choice.
- Wait.
What? - The disciplinary board - is looking into disbarring me.
- Oh, my God.
- Will? - That's okay.
It's just I'm used to it now.
Funny.
Anyway, I've been given a choice.
Fight disbarment or take a six-month suspension.
You don't deserve to be disbarred.
I do deserve to be disbarred.
I took money from a client's account.
- Fifteen years ago.
- But I did it.
And you know what? The only reason I'm being offered leniency is because of our It's because of our pro bono program, something I fought tooth and nail.
- You didn't.
- I did.
I'm taking the six-month suspension.
I did wrong.
I should face the consequences.
There it is.
I've just decided.
Thank you.
You're giving up the law for six months? Yeah.
Weird, huh? - I can't imagine it.
- You did for over a decade.
Yes.
Okay.
I better tell someone.
Okay then.
You'll close out the Neil Gross case, I'll reassign your other cases to the partners.
How soon can you get me a rundown? - End of the day.
- Good.
You won't be able to come into the office unless it's related to handing off cases or the business of the firm.
I'll file the papers with the bar about the firm's name change.
Lockhart and Associates seems simplest unless you have any objections.
- So we're done.
- For now.
You'll still have a place when you come back.
Technology doesn't take sides.
Is that how you rationalize doing business with autocratic regimes? Objection.
Argumentative.
- Yes.
Sustained.
Mr.
Gross, does your company sell to the governments of Saudi Arabia and Bahrain? You mean allies of the United States, with whom we have full diplomatic and trade relations? - Yes, we do.
- We never discussed this questioning.
Your social networking website, Chumhum, did you not turn over the addresses - of Chinese dissidents to the Beijing? Objection.
Irrelevance.
Mr.
Gross' lack of compunction in dealing with regimes that torture and kill their own people, not to mention, Amy Newton, - Sara Fellner, Mohammed Hazouri.
- Your Honor, I understand - where your sympathies lie - Miss Walsh, stop that, please.
I know you're trying to drive a theme to help you in your appeal, but don't do it at my expense.
- I wasn't - You were.
And I don't mean to fly off the handle here, but I am being objective.
So objection sustained.
Let's talk about CoursePoint, Mr.
Gross.
It emits a ping to your central servers when it's in use, does it not? - Kind of a homing signal? - Again, relevance.
If Mr.
Gardner is so curious about the nuts and bolts of our program, I recommend that he go to the software convention in Las Vegas.
Regardless of how the program was obtained, Your Honor, how the program operates is precisely what attracts it to users.
The logic is logical.
Your objection is overruled, Miss Walsh.
Yes.
When the software is in use, it interfaces with our server.
So you are able to identify when and where CoursePoint is active? Yes, we are.
Well, then wouldn't it follow that you had full knowledge that your product was being used by the Syrian government? I've never denied that.
But as I have maintained repeatedly, neither I nor my company provided it to them.
Can you tell those pings were being sent from the city of Homs? Oh, objection.
Beyond irrelevance.
If you wanted to, Mr.
Gross, you could tell where my client's sister was being held now.
That doesn't make sense.
- It does if she's being held in the same place Mr.
Gross' program is being used.
Objection, Your Honor.
- I sustain Miss Walsh's objections.
- Mostly good cross.
- Thank you.
Tried to take Neil Gross out at the knees.
- Only because no one else has.
- Be smart, Will.
Don't argue from passion.
It clouds your thinking.
You think I've forgotten about the case? That I'm suddenly hell-bent on finding Sara? I think you're trying to hit a home run with your last at bat.
It's just an observation.
I'd love nothing more than to be proven wrong.
Hmm.
I don't have much time to prove anything.
- Yes.
- Is that a "yes" yes or an "I really don't want to, but my ex-wife has worn me down" yes? Does it make any difference? Yes, I will consult on your campaign.
And, yes, I will even take my marching orders from Stacie.
Eli, I don't want you if you don't want to.
Okay, okay, okay.
First lesson about being an elected official, when you get what you want, shut up.
What? I miss arguing with you.
Well, I'm sure we'll now have plenty of opportunities to relive those glorious moments.
I'll send over the latest budget.
You've always been good about finding the fat.
And I have some papers I'd like you to mark up.
Mm-hm.
Well, you know where to find me.
Win or lose, this would be nice.
Diane, you needed something? Oh, yes.
Will talked to you about his decision? - He did.
- Good.
I'm reassigning his cases.
I need you to take this one solo.
Will and I would like to keep it under the radar.
Who's the client? Kalinda.
It's primarily a tax case.
Kalinda has a variety of complications, some business, some personal.
Several of which began before she joined the firm.
I appreciate your confidence, but I would think a tax lawyer might be more qualified.
It's past what a tax lawyer can do, which is why I was handling it, we want you to take over.
You and Kalinda should talk as soon as possible.
They are holding her in an empty Al-Sinaa district.
Samir, you cut out.
Can you? Can you please repeat again? They are holding her in an empty school in the Al-Sinaa district.
They use these abandoned buildings instead of prisons to hold people.
It makes it a lot harder to find someone you are looking for.
And you're absolutely sure she's there? As sure as it is possible.
I might be able to get her out, but I will need $50,000.
To pay a bribe? I will handle it, okay? But there is just about four hours, so I need the money immediately.
We'll wire it.
Samir, tell us where to wire it.
You Okay, you will want to wire it Central Bank Did you get that? Samir? Hello? I know how we're gonna win this case.
How? Tech support.
Dinesh Rekhi.
I work on the Chumhum help desk.
But to my customers, I'm Roger.
Have you received calls from users seeking help with CoursePoint? Yes.
It's a complex program, there's still a bug or two to be worked out.
Sorry, Mr.
Gross, but all programs have bugs.
And how many calls have you received since March 2011 - when the Syrian uprising began? - Hundreds.
Did any of those calls come from customers in Syria? Yes.
And who were those customers? Government users, from the Ministry of the Interior.
The agency that oversees Syrian security forces? I don't know.
I just answer the phones.
Then how can you know for certain who's calling? Every user who calls must identify their license number.
It's part of the user agreement.
So Syrian government agencies bought the software and registered it - just like any other honest user? - It appears so.
But they couldn't use it without your help? - Yes.
So Chumhum is helping the Syrian government arrest and torture protesters? Your Honor, I'd like to request a recess to confer with plaintiff counsel.
Harmony and concord between the two sides.
I'm inspired.
They have her.
Sara.
Greetings from Ramstein Air Base.
It's my first trip to Germany.
Oh, you look like hell.
You look perfect.
Samir? Hello? As-salaam alaikum, is Samir available? No.
He's not here.
- I just wanted to let him know that - I said he's not here.
- You know when he might be back? - Samir is gone.
I'm sorry.
We cannot talk anymore.
Do not call again.
At least four people have been killed after army troops stormed the town of Talkalakh in western Syria.
According to residents, the town is under lockdown with government security.
Burning the midnight oil, even on your last day? I thought I could squeeze out one last billable hour.
Any idea what you're gonna do? Maybe write a rock opera.
There hasn't been a decent one since The Wall.
I'm sure it'll be great.
I don't think Pink Floyd has anything to worry about.
- Will, if there's anything you need - I'm good.
But thanks.
Follow Diane's lead, Alicia.
You'll do fine.
