MAN: This was after you dropped your kids off at school.
ALICIA: Yes.
MAN: This was on the 16th?
Yes.
MAN: And who first told you of your husband's infidelity, Mrs. Florrick?
CNBC.
[CHUCKLES]
I'm sorry, I don't understand.
I was at the cleaners.
I was waiting in line.
CNBC was playing on the TV.
I saw it on the crawl at the bottom of the screen.
And just so we're clear,
you never suspected your husband's infidelity before that moment.
Is that correct, Mrs. Florrick?
That's correct.
I'm sorry to ask these personal questions,
but I'm really on your side, and as your husband's attorney,
our appeal depends on proving that your husband made
untruthful statements at work not because he was trying to cover up
illegal acts as a state's attorney,
but that he was trying to hide an affair from his wife.
You understand?
I understand.
Good.
Let's turn to the call girl.
She made some statements in the press.
[CELL PHONE RINGS]
Alicia Florrick.
When?
Are you sure you need me now?
I'll call your office to arrange to do this another time?
I just wanted to let you know that Peter has a lot of friends:
Judges, lawyers, business folk,
who didn't like the way that this went down.
They wanna help.
I'm just saying if you need anything, day or night,
give me a call.
We're fine.
One more thing.
We're looking for correspondence that have taken place
between Peter and a Gerald Kozko.
Just like the store only with a K and a Z.
The real-estate developer.
Peter says, all of his private correspondences
are at your apartment.
It would help a lot if you could look for a letter or a card from him.
That's it. Dentist visit is over.
Alicia, I heard you were coming onboard to replace Bree.
- Could you? - Sure.
Talk about complicated. Jury selection took a week.
We got five more of these filled with medical testimony and the depo dump.
Did you read that?
I was on Will's felony case till 30 minutes ago.
I was on a slip and fall until Diane yanked me on this.
It's just all hands on deck, you know, but this is pretty cool,
so come on, I'll get you up to speed.
DIANE: And what is an ironman, Ray?
RAY: Running, biking, ocean swimming.
You swim 2.4 miles.
Bike 112 miles, then run a full marathon.
DIANE: And you placed third in the Hawaiian Ironman, is that correct?
RAY: Yes, I did. Yeah.
DIANE: So tell me what happened on the 12th, Ray.
RAY: Well, it was right after the ironman...
We were back at the hotel and I felt this migraine coming on,
so I took these pills my doctor prescribed for me.
And the migraine...
Seemed to be getting worse.
Ray Demory. He's our test case.
If Diane wins this one, there's a massive class action in the wings.
RAY: Things felt unsteady.
Next day, at the hospital, I found out I had a stroke.
And these pills you took, they were Zennapril.
- Correct? - Your Honor...
The drug manufactured by these three gentlemen over here.
McCLOON: There's nothing I enjoy more than watching Ms. Lockhart
perform her courtroom magic.
James McCloon. Killer defense counsel.
They call him the Velvet Shiv.
- My clients manufactured Zennapril, and stop poking at them like perps
- on America's Most Wanted. - I didn't hear an objection.
Let's just please refrain from the crosstalk.
Yes, Your Honor. I will try not to interrupt Ms. Lockhart again.
It will be difficult but I will try.
So, Ray.
How would you describe your physical condition now?
Oh, you're looking at it.
Mostly it's been hard on Carol.
We got married a year ago, before my stroke and she...
She didn't buy into this.
I mean, one day her husband's an ironman,
the next day he's a...
[SIGHS]
Yeah, an invalid.
DIANE: Brandon, Lahna, you take point on legal precedent.
Cary, take Alicia and review anything that could undercut the class action.
I don't wanna the battle, lose the war. Use Kalinda if you need to.
Let's get to it.
ALICIA: Mrs. Demory.
Can I get you something?
No, I'm fine.
Sorry, I must've had a zombie look on my face.
No, no, no.
We all need a moment.
I'm Alicia.
Right, you replaced Bree.
Nice to meet you.
Oh, this.
This is what keeps us going.
Michael Graff.
He took Zennapril after a Little League game.
Jenny Hollis.
She was a dancer.
- They all wrote you? - Yes.
A hundred and 38 of them.
I...
Sorry.
It's just...
They're all counting on us, you know.
If we don't win, they're stuck.
It's just a lot of responsibility, you know.
Objection. Relevance.
Isn't it the case, Mr. Demory? The reason you're not suing your doctors
is because his pockets aren't as deep as my client's?
- Objection, Your Honor. - Please.
Approach the bench.
Get me all references to secondary prescriptions in Ray's deposition.
Got it.
ALICIA: Kalinda, I need you to look into this.
What are you saying, someone's bribing a juror?
I'm not saying anything, I just found it.
This could be anything.
Seating chart for a garden party, a football lineup.
With 12 linemen.
What's that?
Yep. We should talk to the hostess, see if anyone from the court eats here.
No, we should take a deep breath, show this to Diane and keep...
McCLOON: The only spot in Chicago not stuffed full of yuppies.
Been coming here three times a week...
I don't think we need to talk to the hostess.
McCLOON: I come here so often,
I asked them to name a sandwich after me.
The waitress looked me dead in the eye and said:
"We don't serve ham." Believe it?
[GROUP LAUGHING]
[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]
ALICIA: It could be anything.
It could be just a doodle. We don't know.
- You found it in our depositions? ALICIA: Yes.
But it could have been on the floor and stuck to one.
We just thought it should be brought to your attention.
- Remember last year? - Yep.
DIANE: Was McCloon ever cleared of that?
WILL: Still up for review.
- So you think we should... What? - Don't go to the judge.
Makes no sense. How does it end up in our depos?
McCloon sticks it in there. He wants a mistrial.
Wants us to go to the judge and request it.
Or he's just screwing with your head.
DIANE: There's another possibility.
There's a young associate on his team.
She came and introduced herself this morning.
She said she worked as a paralegal here last summer.
So, what, McCloon has a whistle-blower in his midst?
Young, idealistic, junior associate sees something wrong,
feels bad about it,
slips us a warning in our depos, I could see that.
Okay, this is what we do.
We do our homework and look into Juror Number 2.
- And Juror Number 11. - Mm-hm.
Or Juror Number 11. Go to the judge if we have anything.
You don't want a mistrial, right?
No, Ray was good on the stand. The jury liked him.
McCloon's defense seems to be a variation on holding his breath
and threatening to turn blue.
This trial is sounding more and more fun.
But see if you got a bad juror on your hands.
- Put in for an alternate. - I'll put Kalinda and Cary on it.
ALICIA: Excuse me.
But I'd like to do this.
Okay.
Juror Number 2 is Marilyn Wolk,
a hairdresser from South Bridgeport.
We scored her an 85 positive on our bias scale,
one of the highest scores we've given. We believe she's firmly in your camp.
Now, I know that you pay me only to help select jurors,
but if I knew what you were after, I could offer further consultation.
No.
This is good.
Keep going.
And Juror Number 11 is Calvin Tober.
He's a grad student in Comparative History.
We scored him only a 62 percent positive on our bias scale.
Well within the range of acceptability.
But we like him.
Being African-American, he's more prone to mistrust authority.
He's intelligent, but not to the point of overcoming bias.
Not like Asians or Mexicans?
We talk in racial stereotypes because you pay us to.
And we find racial profiling works.
But if I'm not needed...
You're not needed.
Thank you.
You've got issues?
Paying her $100,000
for three months of high-school-level psychology.
Yeah, I guess I do have issues.
Okay. So, what are we thinking?
[SIGHS]
Wolk worked as a rent-a-chair hairstylist, right?
Which means, she only gets paid when she actually has a customer.
She could've claimed financial hardship and ducked jury duty.
So why didn't she?
Civic duty?
Jury tampering pays better.
Okay, but let's look into both.
Okay.
Hi, I hate to trouble you but I'm from the next building over
and the delivery man left this at my door by mistake.
Is there a Mr. Tober in the building?
Hi, I'm sorry to bother you.
My name's Kalinda
and my husband and I were thinking of buying a home in the area.
I can always come back later if you know what time he gets home.
We're interested in the pre-school around the corner...
- or anyone else in his family.
I wanted a sense of the neighborhood.
Tober I think his name is.
Usually I don't like black people much, but he seems nice.
They're the Wolks. She's a hairdresser and he's...
Actually, I think he's out of work.
Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that.
- Hard times, isn't it? - Mm-hm.
But their house is so lovely. Looks like they put a lot into it.
Storm windows in front and air conditioning.
They bought a car too. Guess they came into some money.
Hey, there he is now.
That's the husband, Derek.
Oh, gosh.
I'm sorry. I forgot I have to meet the realtor.
Thanks so much for your time.
DIANE: Objection, Your Honor. Is this really necessary?
McCLOON: The Demorys are seeking damages
for loss of consortium, Your Honor.
The jury needs to understand that law...
Counsel, the term "consortium" is not limited.
- I know what consortium is. JUDGE: Counsellors, please.
I have prided myself in not using my gavel once
in my 30 years on the bench.
- What's going on? JUDGE: You're making me reconsider.
- What? - Now, Ms. Lockhart, I just...
Overruled.
I heard you're on some hush-hush project.
- What is it? - It's hush-hush.
Mrs. Demory, before your husband's stroke,
how often did you have sexual relations?
I don't know. I guess twice a week.
McCLOON: And since the stroke, how often do you have sex?
CAROL: I don't know.
McCLOON: Would you say it was less?
Yes. Less.
But your husband isn't completely paralyzed
from the waist down, is he?
CAROL: No.
No, I'm fine. I'm just angry at myself for letting him get to me.
Well, it's hard when they treat your private life like a crime scene.
Yeah, but I guess there are greater tragedies.
[CELL PHONE RINGS]
- Alicia Florrick. - Ah. Alicia.
I'm glad I got you, it's Daniel.
- Who? - Peter's lawyer.
- Oh, hi. - Do you have a minute?
- Actually, I'm a bit busy. - I was wondering if you had a chance
to look for the letters. We're struggling with these weekend meetings
that he had with Peter last March.
The ninth, 16th and the 25th.
I haven't looked yet.
Anything that will show
that Peter did not know going into those meetings
there was something untoward, will help us.
Oh, uh... Alicia.
I was chatting with the headmaster at Briarcrest on another matter,
and he mentioned that they have scholarships for your kids.
Mr. Golden.
Yes?
Don't, please.
Yes.
I'm sorry.
[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]
[SIGHS]
KALINDA [OVER PHONE]: Thirty-five thousand can buy you a lot of stuff.
That's a bit tenuous, isn't it?
Her husband works at McCloon's firm?
Look, I'm not saying it's a smoking gun.
I'm saying that she didn't put in on her voir dire,
so if we wanted to get rid of her, we can.
I say we bring it to Diane and see what she says, okay?
Thanks, bye.
GRACE: Zach, give me back the remote.
ZACH: You've already seen this one.
PETER: Shh. Not so loud.
[GIRL GIGGLING]
PETER: I don't hear the front door.
She gone?
[GIRL GIGGLING]
PETER: I thought for sure she suspected something.
Oh, yes.
PETER: Zach, give me the camera.
I'm not alone in this. I'm not alone in this.
It wasn't even my idea.
- Let's go. ZACH: Yeah.
PETER: Okay.
Here we go.
- Put a lot of this on, right? - Do we have sprinkles?
PETER: Hurry, she's coming. ZACH: What did you do?
GRACE: Move it. PETER: It's a little too thick.
Right, I'm gonna do a little surgery.
I just wanted to lay on it a little... You know what I mean?
GRACE: Dad, push it.
PETER: I know but it's sticking to the bottom.
GRACE: Dad, you were supposed to get rose petals already petaled
- not roses. - I know, but this is what I have.
Okay, how's that look?
ZACH: That looks terrible. PETER: All right.
GRACE: Oh, my gosh. ZACH: That looks expensive.
PETER: There goes your college education.
[GRACE AND ZACH CHUCKLING]
PETER: Okay, let's get ready.
The day you were talking about, the 16th,
the day he was supposedly with Kozko.
Well, he couldn't have been. He was with us the whole day.
Okay, I'll bring it by your office, 30 minutes.
Hey, Jackie, I'm heading out.
Oh, I'm making dinner.
- Wow, that's big. - Mm.
- Where did this come from? - It was on the doorstep.
I think it's from your work.
It's very nice of your firm, wasn't it?
Dear, what...?
Dear.
Alicia, what are you doing?
What else was in the basket?
I don't know, bananas.
- Anything else? - I don't know.
Cookies?
Oh, good, I'm so glad.
- You have the tape? - Oh, yes.
And something else too.
A gift.
- What is it? - Ham, iPods,
some half-eaten bananas.
Don't you ever try to buy me.
And don't you ever try to buy my kids. You understand that?
We're still working on the other juror. Juror Number 11.
And we're not saying that Juror Number 2 was definitely bought off.
We just think that based on appearances
and the fact that it takes one bad juror to toss out a favorable verdict,
we should use that as pretext to bump Juror Number 2
and put in the alternate.
They make a good point. Better to be safe than sorry.
What does the jury consultant say about the alternate?
The alternate's a Republican. Not as good for us as the current juror.
What if Juror Number 2 wasn't bought off?
I've just replaced a good juror with a bad alternate.
So smoke out McCloon.
Bring the potential bias to the judge but don't insist on replacing Juror 2.
Bring it up, if McCloon goes crazy,
you know she was bought and fight for expulsion.
And McCloon doesn't go nuts?
Just say you were following your duty as an officer of the court.
Back off.
It's your call.
We don't know what this means.
It wasn't in Juror Number 2's voir dire.
McCLOON: I don't look at the guards at my reception.
I go straight down to the parking garage.
I don't understand, Ms. Lockhart.
Do you want Juror Number 2 off the jury or not?
We're undecided, Your Honor.
We merely felt an obligation to bring it to the court's attention.
Hey, if Ms. Lockhart has any hesitation at all,
I say, let's dump her.
Of course, we are willing to stipulate to the fairness of this.
Let's put in the alternate. We have no objection, Your Honor.
All right, fine. Juror Number 2 is out. We'll put in the alternate.
We got played.
- What happened? - It was a McCloon set up.
He put the placemat in our depos to get us to dump our best juror.
We don't know that.
McCloon didn't fight it.
He welcomed it.
- He wanted number two off the jury. - Right.
Because we were wrong. It wasn't Number 2.
- It was Number 11. - Or it was no one.
Okay, maybe.
But we find out.
I don't know.
We thought Number 2 looked guilty because she wanted to serve on a jury.
- She was being a good person. - So?
So if that X was on Juror Number 5, or 8 or anyone,
we would pry into their lives and we would find something.
Because from the outside, people look guilty.
Yeah, and sometimes people from the outside look guilty
because they are guilty.
I mean, what's your point? We don't look?
I don't know.
I don't like prying.
Then don't. Let me.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
Oh, thank God. I hope you can help me.
I just locked myself out of 4B, and I left my purse inside.
- So where's Tober? - He left earlier.
Jury duty, I think.
But he said to ask the super...
- Hey, you're Ozzie, right? - Yeah.
But I've never seen you before.
Look, I know this is awkward, okay?
I met Calvin last night. He let me sleep in while he went off.
Please?
I'm already so late for work.
In our phase one and phase two trials,
we never once found a causal link
between Zennapril and brain-stem stroke.
McCLOON: Dr. Winsor, is it possible that Mr. Demory
took a wrong dosage of Zennapril for his migraine headache?
Well, he shouldn't have taken any Zennapril at all.
It's not indicated for headache relief.
Zennapril's not approved for migraines?
WINSOR: No.
It's a powerful drug,
intended for only patients suffering schizophrenia.
GOLDEN: I wanna apologize for last night.
I sent that basket before we had our conversation.
No one will ever send you anything again.
Thank you.
[SIGHS]
[CHUCKLES]
I...
I don't mean to keep doing this.
I need to ask another favor.
Regarding the videotape that you gave me.
Okay.
On the tape was a present, a bracelet.
I need you to look for the receipt.
Why?
I wanna use the videotape to try to get Peter a new trial.
I think it's very effective.
But I'm afraid that the prosecution will suggest
that the present wasn't paid for by Peter.
Why would they suggest that?
Mrs. Florrick, as you know, technically,
I don't represent you, I represent your husband.
As much as I would like to be completely forthcoming
in these circumstances, I don't believe I can.
So Kozko gave Peter things,
and you believe Peter regifted these things,
this bracelet to me?
I can say this.
It would be helpful if we could find the receipt.
Alicia.
- If money you're concerned about... - What?
You don't have to be so proud.
I know you're carrying a great deal of responsibility right now.
The rent alone...
Well, I just want you to know that I have more than enough room.
Oh, you know, we're okay for now.
But thanks.
[CELL PHONE BEEPS]
[LINE RINGING]
KALINDA [OVER PHONE]: Yeah?
- Kalinda? - Hold on.
Hello.
Hey, it's Alicia returning your call. Who was that?
Donna.
Look, I found out something about Juror Number 11, Calvin Tober.
I was talking to the super in his building and let me into his apartment.
Why would he let you into his apartment?
You really wanna know?
No.
Here's the thing, Tober's bank account,
he just deposited $20,000 in cash.
I think we have our bribed juror.
Yes, it's ours. You lost the receipt?
And I need a copy for my tax records.
It's a beautiful piece. One of our finest.
When was it purchased?
Um... February or March. Maybe January.
I'm sorry, you said Florrick?
Yes.
I found the receipt. It's not under Florrick.
Might it be under a different name?
I'm not sure. What name do you have?
I'm sorry. I'm not able to give out that information.
Could the name be Kozko?
I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't give out that information.
Hey, so I tracked down Tober's ex-wife.
She says he was five months behind on alimony.
Then last week, he paid her 10 grand.
He claims he took out a second mortgage on his house.
- Is that all? - Tober doesn't own a house.
- Did you hear me? - Yeah.
Kalinda, do you know someone named Kozko?
Gerald Kozko? Real-estate developer.
What does he have to do with my husband?
I don't know. He have anything to do with him?
You worked at the state's attorney's office.
- Two years. - Well, did you ever see anything?
Like what?
Payoffs, gifts, I don't know.
I don't even know if I want to know.
Look, you don't go to the state's attorney's office to find saints.
I'll get back to you about Tober.
If his payoff's $35,000,
then McCloon owes him another 15,000.
My guess is he gets it before deliberation.
That's at the end of today.
I'd better rush, then.
McCLOON: Objection, Your Honor. This is a research document.
- Not promotional material. JUDGE: Overruled.
DIANE: Then let me continue quoting:
"Primary outcome for Zennapril include a 40 percent reduction
in the average frequencies of migraines."
We test drugs for all possible outcomes.
It doesn't mean that we recommend them.
Could you please tell the court
what this is, doctor?
Objection, we haven't seen this.
Discovery materials, Item 469. I'll help you, sir.
This document is an application to the EMEA,
seeking approval to market Zennapril in Europe
as a migraine medication.
Am I correct?
Yes.
Filed 20 months ago.
Dr. Winsor, would you please tell the court
whose signature is on this application?
Uh... My signature.
DIANE: No further questions, Your Honor.
JUDGE: Then that concludes the trial testimony.
We'll finish the day with summations and jury instructions.
And then, ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
the trial moves into your hands.
[SIGHS]
DIANE: And she's sure it was a payoff?
No, she saw an envelope exchange hands.
She doesn't know what was inside the envelope.
- And she didn't see the driver? - No, she saw a dark green SUV.
And Kalinda saw a partial plate, J15.
She's running it, crossing it with make and model,
but that could take awhile.
Start with McCloon's legal team.
I don't know. The jury's already deliberating.
They sent word to the judge, may have a verdict by today.
If we pull the trigger, we do it now.
I'd have to bring the judge everything. The placemat, the $35,000.
- The alimony. - You request another juror now,
it would be a definite mistrial.
DIANE: But I feel like the jury was with me.
I mean, the summation... They were nodding.
They want to give this to us.
Yes, unless, Juror 11 torpedoes it.
Either way, we're risking a mistrial.
Damn, this is roulette. This isn't law.
We're talking about a felony crime here.
We have an obligation.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
The judge wants you in chambers.
This should be interesting.
In the next ten minutes, we're gonna figure something out.
Your Honor, I request a private meeting.
In the meantime, I would like silence.
Not McCloon silence. Not Lockhart silence.
Just silence.
Unless, I point to you, you will not speak.
- Your Honor... - Sergeant Largon.
Sergeant, come in, please.
And wait right there.
Anyone who speaks without my permission will be held in contempt.
The jury has reached a verdict. I'm holding that verdict
until we settle an issue that has arisen.
The foreman has approached me about being followed by someone
from one of your legal teams.
Who would that be?
You may speak.
We have reason to believe that Mr. McCloon bribed one of the jurors.
We intended to bring these charges to Your Honor,
but first we wanted to be certain of our information.
And so you had one of the jurors followed?
Your Honor, I am stunned.
Mr. McCloon, without the outrage, please.
Clearly, Ms. Lockhart has nothing solid
and she's trying to torpedo this verdict before it comes in.
She's worried it won't go in her favor.
All right, Ms. Lockhart, I am holding you in contempt.
You owe the legal defense fund $80,000
to be paid no later than Friday of next week.
And I think I am damn well owed an apology.
Uh-uh-uh. I did not point to you.
That will be $10,000, Mr. McCloon.
Now, we are all going back into that courtroom,
and we are all living with this verdict.
If you have evidence of jury tampering,
Ms. Lockhart, take it up on appeal.
Too many people have selflessly invested their time
for your playground tactics to throw this into a mistrial.
Now that's it.
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, have you reached a verdict?
Yes, Your Honor.
JUDGE: And what is your verdict?
"We the jury, find for Raymond Demory,
and against the defendant, Zennapril Pharmaceutical.
And we assess damages
in the sum of $800,000 in compensatory damages,
and 3 million in punitive damages."
[CROWD CLAPPING]
JUDGE: Thank you for your service to the State of Illinois.
Jury is dismissed. Court adjourned.
[CROWD CLAPPING]
Settle and I won't pursue an appeal.
I still have my class-action clients.
Right, I'll get you some numbers by the end of the day.
ALICIA: So we were wrong.
KALINDA: It happens.
People sometimes just look guilty.
CAROL: Alicia.
Thank you.
Oh, it was... It was all Diane.
I want you to have something.
These are the people that you helped today.
[CAROL SIGHS]
Thanks again. It really is amazing.
- Is it? - Yes.
Ever been to the Hungry Kitten?
Restaurant?
Sure, Ray loves it.
And you borrowed our deposition books.
Yes.
Why?
Wow.
Diane wanted us to look through Ray's earlier statements.
You didn't have to do it. You would have won.
We did win.
[ALL CHATTERING]
They bribed the foreman.
Our clients did.
They drive a dark green SUV.
Their license plate prefix is J15.
There was no whistle-blower.
Our clients bribed the jury.
- Maybe. - No, it's true.
- We need to bring this to the judge. - We already did.
We brought our suspicions to the judge and he overruled us.
Yes, but now we know.
We fulfilled our obligation under the law.
It's wrong.
No.
We follow the law, Alicia.
Sometimes it's wrong, sometimes it's right.
But we always follow the law.
And today, you helped a lot of people in pain find justice.
[DOOR CLOSES]
PETER: How are you doing?
Good.
I hear that work is going well.
It is. It's good.
You sound like Grace.
"How's school?" "Good." "How are your teachers?" "Good."
Are you having fun?
That's the most important thing.
Fun as Disneyland.
Well, I'm glad you're making a life for yourself.
It gives you a break from this whole situation.
Right, Daniel?
Alicia can handle herself, I know that.
So, ahem, uh...
Daniel and I wanted to talk to you about something.
Alicia, we've been going over our appeal strategy
and, um, ahem, we need you to do something that we didn't expect.
We need you to testify.
I'm sorry, but we have gone over this every which way we could.
GOLDEN: We need you to say
on the stand when you found out about the affair
so that we can show that Peter was lying to protect you.
- Uh... From the affair. - Well, it's Bill Clinton all over again.
Remember what we used to say? They were using sex to crucify him.
They're doing exactly the same thing to me.
Crucifying you?
Alicia, we need you to do this.
I wouldn't ask you if I didn't need it.
Will you testify?
