I actually have the number of a shrink.

I'm already seeing someone.

I decide what he deserves.

JIMMY: I will get my law license back.

My partner and I will get a new office.

I have tons of Mesa Verde to catch up on.

You have work.

I have work.

It's all good.

KIM: I don't know what to tell you, Paige.

- I'm sorry.

- [KEYPAD BEEPS]

It'll never happen again.

It's impossible?

Difficult.

Not quite impossible.

Give me your money.

Back in the day, they would have known not to roll me.

I've made my choices.

Well Confidence.

An admirable trait.

CLARA: Hey, Jimmy.

- I'm stuck on Documentary Short Subject.

Mm.

Yeah.

Just go with your gut.

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

[KEYBOARD KEYS CLACKING IN DISTANCE]

"Howards End" all the way down, huh?

I just love Emma Thompson.

Who doesn't?

She's so pragmatic.

Yeah, well, fingers crossed.

[WHEELS SQUEAKING]

Hey, hey.

Hey.

How'd we do?

This is everything from two.

And I even got Chloe to throw in.

Many have tried to argue with Kim Wexler.

All have failed.

I'm headed up to four.

You got anything?

Yep.

And I'll do three.

Already done.

You know, you're making the rest of us look bad.

If you wouldn't stop at every cubicle to chat It's called being friendly.

It's great for morale.

It is great for wasting time.

- That, too.

- Okay.

It's So, discovery for Cordero is coming this afternoon, so you might want to kick it up a bit.

[APPLAUSE]

Wow.

- Congratulations.

- He really did it.

What?

Isaacson.

- The case.

- I don't Isaacson vs.

Vakarian Holdings, Inc.

We've been assembling binders for months.

I've been kind of slammed with the Oscar pool, in case you weren't paying attention.

Right.

Sorry.

I'll try harder.

So, this guy, Isaacson he dies of a heart att*ck.

- Mm-hmm.

- And his family they're our clients sort through his financials, you know, looking to track down his assets.

Lo and behold, they find some old shares in this company he invested in like 20 years back.

Family tracks down the CFO, looking to cash out, but he tells them, "Hmm, that corporation's been dissolved.

" Isaacson's shares are worthless.

- Whoa.

- Right?

But Chuck does some digging, and it turns out they formed a new corporation that's virtually identical to the old corp Isaacson invested in.

It's the same officers, same structure, everything.

- Ah.

- Right?

So, Chuck finds exemption 4 in Leannais vs.

Cincinnati, - which is compl - Okay.

Okay.

Yeah, listen.

I appreciate the effort, but can you just big-picture it for me?

I am.

Chuck won a case that Howard thought was unwinnable using only the power of obscure case law.

- [CHUCKLES]

- That's good.

Yeah, very.

Congratulations, Mr. McGill.

- Jimmy.

- Chuck.

- Big day, huh?

- Yeah.

Thanks, uh

- Kim. Wexler.

- Of course.

- You're one of our law students?

- Yes.

- I'm in my third year at UNM

- Ah.

thanks to HHM.

- How's it going?

- Very well.

Thank you.

[CHUCKLES]

And congratulations again on Isaacson.

Well [CHUCKLES]

I'm sure that you considered it.

I just wanted to ask.

Vakarian Holdings, Inc.

, would have been liable under the "continuing enterprise" exception,

- as well, right?

- That's right.

Yeah, we looked into that.

[SIGHS]

What was the case law on that?

- Uh, Garcia vs.

Coe Manufacturing.

- Mm-hmm.

Sounds like it was Isaacson v.

Chuck handing him his butt on a platter, huh?

Well, yeah, but Isaacson is our client.

Oh, really?

Okay.

Well, the the other guys' butts, then.

Yeah, served on platters.

That's right.

Thanks, Jimmy.

Hail the conquering hero.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

[SIGHS]

I thought you already decided to go.

[INHALES SHARPLY]

I did.

But then I time went by, and I kind of calmed down and realized it's just it's just not for me.

Why not?

It's just not.

[CHUCKLES]

I don't think that navel-gazing is gonna get me where I need to be.

Yeah, but how do you know Unless I try?

It just doesn't feel right.

I need to be moving forward, you know?

And now I got this job, and I'm kind of on a path.

And, uh [INHALES SHARPLY]

Just wanna give this a try.

Is that okay?

Kim.

Hello, Rich.

- So good to see you.

- You too.

Thanks for seeing me on such short notice.

Oh, are you kidding?

I've been wanting to thank you in person ever since you sent Billy Gatwood our way.

So, shall we?

So, how long you got with that thing?

- Three more weeks.

- Mm.

Can I sign it?

Do people still do that?

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

Please have a seat.

Have a seat.

I won't lie.

Losing Billy Gatwood definitely hurt.

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I think he misses you.

As long as he's taken care of, I'm happy.

Well, you made it easy for us.

We just continued what you started.

So, um, how is James holding up?

I didn't get to speak with him at the funeral.

We're taking it one day at a time.

Mm.

Well, grief moves at its own pace.

And it's different for everybody, so Give him my best.

Thank you.

So, what can I do for you?

- I have a question for you.

- Mm-hmm.

How's your banking division?

Well, we have some banking work, but I wouldn't say we have a division.

Would you like one?

[DOOR OPENS, CREAKS]

[DOORS CLOSING]

[ELECTRICITY HUMMING]

MIKE: Well, it's a good long way from the rest of your operation.

GUS: It must remain completely separate.

Two bedrooms each.

Werner'll probably take his own, and the rest of the guys can double up.

Wired and plumbed?

Yes.

Oh, this is a good start.

What do you have in mind?

Hmm.

[SIGHS]

[CLICKS TONGUE]

Couple treadmills over there, barbells, weight bench.

You build out a stocked bar, beer on tap.

I mean, they're German, so Entertainment system here, DVD player.

Projector and screen set-up might be nice, a few La-Z-Boys or couches, pool table.

I don't know.

Foosball?

Hell, we could even put up a hoop.

Germans play basketball, yeah?

I believe so.

You know, Werner said that this was gonna take 6 months, which means 8 at least, probably 10, in total isolation.

These guys are gonna be doing 10 hours heavy labor every day well, night.

Then coming home to this.

We can't just keep 'em alive.

We got to keep 'em from climbing the walls.

[SIGHS]

Make a list.

[INHALES SHARPLY]

Security.

I'd like a full camera perimeter inside, and we'll keep it low-profile.

They'll know we'll be watching.

We just don't need to stick it in their faces.

Outside, too, obviously, in case someone tries to find a way in or out.

I'll put a sally port on that door.

We'll control it from the outside.

And we're gonna need a trailer to monitor the cameras.

Close by.

2 guys, 24-hour monitoring, working shifts.

Let's say 5 guys, minimum.

Probably help to have a couple German speakers, as well.

I can provide you men.

Well, I'm gonna need to vet 'em.

- No offense.

- Of course.

- What is it?

- Infection.

Bad one.

[SIGHS]

I must leave.

Tell Tyrus what you need.

It will be done.

You got a pen?

- I'll remember.

- Yeah?

[DOOR CLOSES]

Treadmills.

You want to check wholesale providers.

These guys are gonna tear right through consumer-grade.

JIMMY: I'd love to see what something, say, like a 24-footer, would run me.

Salesperson on phone: Uh, sorry.

We just don't make them that big.

Who does?

- I can't think of anyone around here.

- Yeah.

Well, who makes those huge signs that the casinos have?

She, um She d*ed.

- [SMACKS LIPS]

I'm sorry to hear that.

I'm the executor, and I distributed all her stuff, but there's some kind of finer details in this thing that are real tricky.

I thought maybe you could help me with those.

Who was your aunt?

Geraldine Strauss.

Oh, Mrs.

H-How?

She, um She went in her sleep a couple weeks ago.

Anyway, it's my busiest time at work, and Angie's doing the best she can, but I have to get back to Salt Lake.

Mr.

I'm sorry.

I, uh I'm not practicing any longer.

Aw, darn it.

I can refer you, though.

Um Hamlin Hamlin McGill has an excellent estate law department, and they'll help you sort things out.

We did our best to build a nest egg so that we wouldn't be a burden to our family.

After Ronald passed, I moved to an assisted-living facility, a nice place.

They told me they'd take care of everything, but then one day, they said all my money was gone.

How could that be?

How's work?

[ICE CLINKING]

It is a job.

And how about you?

Work's good?

Yeah.

Actually, I have news.

Good news.

It's great news, really.

It could change things for Wexler/McGill.

But I met with Rich Schweikart today.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Well, you know, they took on Gatwood, so I've been meaning to follow up.

And ahh anyway, we were talking, and he offered me a job.

[CHUCKLING]

Again?

What?

He can't take no for an answer?

They want me to run their banking division.

Build it, really.

You're not seriously considering it?

I'd be coming in as a partner.

But I thought things were going okay with Mesa Verde since, uh They are.

They were.

My workload has gotten a lot more complicated lately.

I've been taking on some pro bono work, overflow from the public defender's office.

P. D. overflow?

When did you Why?

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

I like it.

I'm good at it.

And I'm helping people, Jimmy.

And I know that sounds cheesy.

It's, you know, it's whatever, but it's the truth.

No.

It, uh, makes a lot of sense.

I have been thinking about criminal law myself lately

[INHALES SHARPLY]

you know, for when I get my license back.

Really?

Yeah.

You know, like you said, you know, you're helping people.

I'm thinking an office in one of these refurbished bungalows, you know, downtown by the courts, you know, stick around where all the people who need help are.

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

Boy.

It has a nice ring to it now "Wexler/McGill criminal law.

" That all sounds great.

The thing is, if I go to Schweikart and Cokely, I have all those associates to help cover Mesa Verde.

It'll keep paying the bills and free me up to do the work I really care about.

So, you kind of get to have your cake and eat it, too.

Kind of, yeah.

[SIGHS]

[TELEPHONE RINGS IN DISTANCE]

[BREATHES DEEPLY]

I grew up quite poor.

We lived in the hills, in a place my brothers built from things they found metal sheeting, plywood.

When it rained, it smelled like hay.

We were always hungry.

But there was a lucuma tree, scrawny, barely alive.

My family had given up on it years before.

Never bore fruit.

When I was 7, I became fixated on it.

I watered it, tended to it.

It took a long time, but the buds grew into green fruit.

I was so proud.

I didn't tell anyone.

I plucked one and hid behind our shack.

I ate the whole thing.

I'd never tasted something so sweet.

It was like caramel.

At first, we ate the fruit ourselves, and then I began taking it to the village to sell.

[TELEPHONE RINGS IN DISTANCE]

One day, much of the fruit was gone from my tree.

[BEEPING, HISSING CONTINUES]

Piece were scattered on the ground, half-eaten.

I thought it was probably a coati.

Have you ever seen one?

About the size of a large housecat.

Opportunists.

I built a snare using branches and wire.

It didn't take long for the animal to set it off.

But the coati thrashed so hard, it broke out of the snare broke its leg, as well.

I tried to grab it, but it slipped away.

It ran under the house.

I knew it would show itself sooner or later.

So I waited for hours, into the night.

When my brothers called for me I did not answer.

I didn't make a sound.

I was so still.

Finally, it came out.

It knew I was there, but it was hungry.

[BEEPING, HISSING CONTINUES]

This time, I was ready.

I caught it.

It fought me.

But I was stronger.

The merciful thing would have been to k*ll it.

I kept it.

It lived for quite some time.

I believe you will wake, Hector.

Hey.

JIMMY: I come in peace.

I'm just just here to make a deal.

What kind of deal?

Look, fellas, we we got off on the wrong foot, okay?

I'm sure you saw me out here selling my wares, and you thought I was just some rube, out looking to score a quick buck and just begging to be rolled.

But, guys, I'm thinking long term.

I see a real need in this community for safe, affordable, untraceable phones, and I'm ready to fill it.

[SCOFFS]

Wah-wah-wah.

All right.

All right, straight talk.

[SIGHS]

I need to be able to sell my phones without worrying about getting ripped off.

I'm proposing if you let me sell my phones without hassle, I cut you in, say, 100 bucks every night that I'm out.

And that's money for literally doing nothing.

[SIGHS]

Why wouldn't we just take all of it?

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

'Cause I'm talking consistent, reliable profits, you know?

Sure, you can rip me off again, take all that I've got, but then I stop selling, and you lose a valuable revenue stream.

[SIGHS]

Give me all you got now.

I'm trying to make money for all of us here.

Just work with me.

Give.

If you could just expand your thinking a little bit.

- [SWITCHBLADE CLICKS]

- You talk too much.

All right, all right, we got a man of action.

Easy to say now, but what about tomorrow?

I-I-I I'll swear, man.

I'll swear on anything you want me to.

[PINATA SHATTERS, THUDS]

Cross your heart and hope to die?

Yes.

Yes, man.

You mean it?

Yes.

Yes!

Look, after this, you'll never have to see us again.

Yes.

We'll tell everyone.

We'll say, "D-D-Don't mess with the cellphone guy.
