Lynn went to your apartment this weekend to speak with you,but you weren't there.
Oh, I must have been out.
You... You don't know what I'm talking about.
- You're firing me? - No. No.
People became concerned after you went to the hospital Friday morning,
and it was decided, after some discussion,
that it was best not to leave a message on your phone.
- William died. - When?
Friday night, actually.
- I'm sorry. - You didn't kill him?
There's gonna be a small private funeral on Wednesday, and then...
a full memorial in several weeks.
Is that it?
I don't know what you're feeling, even how close you were.
I mean, I guess... I guess I can kind of imagine.
Yeah. I put that behind me.
Well, I'm sorry for my outburst the other day. I was...
I was overly harsh.
Lynn's been telling me how vital you were to William's work.
Always in the shadows, never flagging,
and I pulled you out of the back room and I forced you out onto the floor. It was...
It was a lot to ask.
I've gotten Felicity Ellerbee to sign a document
absolving us of any wrongdoing in her nephew's death.
It's a good thing that she...
She believes that you were just acting in Derrell's best interests.
So, that's in the review.
And I've also learned today that we picked up three new clients,
all of whom came as referrals from your cases.
It seems like your personal attention, giving out your cell phone,
is quite the calling card.
I wanna institute the practice for all our attorneys.
Good.
Look, you can still leave, of course.
I fully understand. But I think maybe there's a...
You know, maybe there's a place for you here...
- I wanna stay. - You would?
Yes. I mean...
I'm tired of doing the impossible for the ungrateful.
I now have more... practical concerns.
- The...The suit's a big change. - Thank you.
I prefer double-breasted, but...
You broke open the piggy bank?
Yeah. Yes, I did.
My lack of success is self-imposed.
So, Israel, there's a rumor that you know the CPC by heart.
Yeah. Guilty as charged.
- Pleadings. - Nine, forty eight, nine, seven, three.
- Demurrer for irregula... - Twelve, forty eight.
Money laundering.
One, eight, six point nine. One, eight, six, point one and zero
However, all pleadings in those cases
are subject to the laws of joinder and severance. That's nine, fifty four.
- Wow! - Nice. - Impressive.
You gotta be kidding me.
I gotta go.
See you, Jessie.
Listen, I got a Prop thirty six I could really use help with.
Okay.
We handled a lot of DTC motions at my old firm.
Awesome. I have some free time this afternoon, if you do.
I don't know what your caseload is like, but I'll stop by?
- Yeah. - Great.
