Previously on Ally McBeal.

- I'm offering you a job.
- Huh?

If you act like a tree
trunk, I'll chop you down.

I'll hire you. What?

I mean, I'm offering
you a-a job. Oh!

- I'm not going to school today.
- It's your first day.

- School is not
an optional thing.
- I'm not going. Got it?

You have a 10-year-old
girl who's just lost her father.

She's living in her third home in less
than two years, and she's doin' okay.

You must be doing
something right.

What's wrong?

Ma-Maddie, are-are you okay?

Why don't you tell her, Maddie?

Why don't you tell her?
You seem to enjoy it so.

- You think I take pleasure in having...
- Yes, I do.

Will, uh, somebody tell me?

I can show you.

We had some cameras installed
in the lavatories due to a problem...

with some of the students
smoking cigarettes.

What, she's not coming in again?

Well, she'll be here, but...
But what? She's a partner now.

Evidently, Maddie was
caught smoking. What?

She's 10! Well...

I'd better not catch you
doing that around me.

I am flammable.

Mr. Fish? I'm Serena Feldman.

You're Serena Feldman?
How old are you?

- Sixteen.
- Hello, Serena. I'm Claire Otoms.

Aren't you a little
flower? Not yet in bloom.

Uh, Mr. Fish, I can pay you, if
that's what you're worried about.

Oh, I... I never worry
about money. Right, Claire?

Why worry when you can obsess?

Yeah, uh, let-let's
just go into my office.

Sweet 16.

When I was that age, I had
to b*at them off with a stick.

Do you have any idea how
addictive it is? How deadly it is?

All right. Don't
you "all right" me.

It leads to heart att*cks, strokes, lung
cancer, brain cancer, breast cancer...

All right. No, d-don't
you "all right" me.

You're gonna listen to this. Do
you think it's cool? Well, it's not cool.

A person dies every 30 seconds in
this country from smoking cigarettes.

It's the leading cause
of death in the world.

- Are you listening to me?
- I'm listening.

It's bad, bad, bad, bad, bad,

bad, bad, bad, bad, bad,
bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad...

- Hey.
- Hey. What's goin' on?

What's goin' on? Oh, well
I'll tell you what's going on.

Maddie's been sucking on the big
cancer stick, chewing on the death weed.

She's on one of those
new carcinogen diets...

The one that traps
healthy fat cells...

and shrivels them up into
malignant little pieces of rotted flesh.

She's decided that she wants soot
for her lungs and a charcoal throat.

- Ally.
- She smokes. My daughter
smokes cigarettes.

Why don't you get a big sign
and put it over your head...

that says, "I'm stupid.
Hear me choke!"

The big thing here is to maintain
dialogue, which I see you're doing.

Ally, you need to
talk to her, not at her.

Yes, Victor. Thank you, Victor.

I'll be going
upstairs now, Victor.

Cardiomyopathy.

Basically, it means that I
have a weak heart muscle.

- So, this is... This is serious?
- I'm dying, Mr. Fish.

I have about six weeks,
unless I get a transplant.

Uh, my tissue type
isn't very common,

but I have found a
heart that matches.

That... That's good then.

Not exactly.

The person it belongs
to is quite healthy,

and has a life expectancy
of 30 to 40 years.

- Okay, oh, uh...
- He's my father.

And he wants to give it to me.

- Uh... His heart?
- Yes.

Uh... W-Wouldn't that
leave him, uh... Dead.

I'm assuming, of course,
that no hospital will agree?

Right. And there's all kinds of ethical
rules, and we would like to challenge them.

We? You and your dad?

Yes.

I-I'm curious. Why isn't
he with you, here, now?

Because he's in prison serving
a life sentence for m*rder.

One of the reasons he
wants to give me his heart.

What about your mother?
Where does she stand on this?

My mother's the
person that he k*lled.

Look, I-I know you're not stupid,
and-and that's why I was so shocked.

N-Nic...

Nicotine is an addictive drug
that contains carcinogens, so...

Didn't you ever smoke? Well...

Well, a-actually... Well,
brief... Yeah. Yes, briefly.

When I was 14, my
friends were smoking,

and I wanted to be accepted.

So I, uh... Well, when I
was 15, I-I gave up both.

Both? Mm-hmm.

Smoking and my
need to be accepted.

Cigarettes k*ll you, Maddie.

Uh, used as directed,
cigarettes k*ll you.

Fine. I got it. Good.

Uh... Okay, she's grounded.

And I'll be home for dinner.

How'd you get caught?

Stupid cameras in the bathroom.

The stupid video cameras
you told me they were installin'?

What?

So you wanted to get caught.

You wanted to get suspended.

What's goin' on at school that
you don't want to be there for?

Tests?

Bullies?

Come on, you know eventually I'm gonna
find out, so why don't you just tell me?

What's up?

Friday is Father-Daughter
Day at school.

I just don't feel
like being there.

Wouldn't it have just made
more sense to tell the principal?

I don't like people
feeling sorry for me.

At front gate for new arrivals.

I still don't know why you bring
me along on these missions.

To take notes. You
know my attention span.

Look at the way all these
prisoners are staring in my direction.

They all want to ravage me.

Hello. Thank you for coming.

I'm Raymond Millbury. Richard
Fish. And this is Claire Otoms.

- Hello.
- Hi.

I know this is a bit
of a long sh*t, but...

Are you okay? Yeah.

Well, uh... Serena, uh,
said this is your idea.

Yes. I assume she
explained the situation to you.

She didn't say how
you whacked her mother!

Uh, we actually do need
that information, Mr. Feldman.

I basically snapped.
Pulled out a g*n.

You were convicted of m*rder One, which
means the jury didn't think you snapped.

My wife was having an
affair, which I knew about.

So the prosecution
argued premeditation.

Look, I'm not trying
to deny responsibility.

I committed a m*rder.

But Serena certainly
doesn't deserve to die.

And if I can save her for
the pain I've caused her...

Well, we would need a court
order, which is highly unlikely.

- Is it impossible?
- Not impossible,

but basically, we'd be asking
permission for a hospital to...

put you to death.

Look, I could k*ll
myself in here,

but there'd be a danger it
would compromise the heart.

Why not let me
do it in a hospital?

She's an innocent young girl.

We'll try, Mr. Feldman,

but like you recognized,
this is a long sh*t.

She's 16 years
old, Mr. Millbury.

Sixteen.

- I thought you were
going to work.
- Oh, well, I didn't.

So you wanted to get suspended?

You heard?

Yeah. Well, you told
everything to Victor...

before I could even
get out of the room.

And you feel threatened by that?

You know, you could
feel relieved I don't smoke.

Or insecure because
I suck as a parent.

- You don't suck at it.
- Oh, please.

No, please, please,
don't use that language.

Uh-uh.

You know, I bet since
you don't have a father,

they would let you take a mother
to your Father-Daughter Day.

You don't have to do that.

Well, hey, you know, I
might meet a cute guy.

I mean, did you
ever think of that?

- Well, Victor's cute.
- Oh, Vic... No, Victor... No, Victor...

Victor and I... We are not
right for each other, Maddie.

- Why not?
- Well, we're
just different types.

- What do you mean
different types?
- Well, we're just...

We just come from two
different worlds, and...

And it takes a lot more for two
people to become a couple...

than just wanting to
jump each other's...

car, if they don't start.

And, uh, Victor...

Victor and I are just different.

Mr. Fish, with every
case you bring before me,

they get more and
more ridiculous.

Well, actually, Your
Honor, we were in

court four years ago
arguing a similar case.

- Two men wanting to swap hearts. One...
- And you were rejected.

And this isn't a swap.
Here, a man would die.

Well, the court does
recognize a right to die. I read it.

They do not recognize
assisted su1c1de,

which is what you're asking for.

- I'm asking you
to help save a life.
- By extinguishing another?

There's a compelling state
interest against su1c1de, Mr. Fish.

- Did you read that?
- Your Honor, uh, if I may?

Does the state really
have a compelling interest...

in saving the life of a man it has chosen
to incarcerate for the rest of his life?

The government has deemed this
man unworthy of ever rejoining society.

The taxpayers have
to pay for his upkeep. If

he can donate an organ
to save somebody...

It isn't that simple.
Why can't it be?

One of the reasons
Massachusetts doesn't have

a death penalty is
because we are pro-life.

Your Honor, may I have a word?

No. You're not an attorney.

- Why are you even here?
- Well, there was a rumor
you might smile today.

Perhaps not.

Your Honor, what we're
asking for is pro-life.

We're looking to
save Serena Feldman.

As a matter of public policy,
no court, nor any hospital...

She will die in six weeks.

We have the means
of preventing that.

You can't say no in the
interest of public policy.

I first want to hear from Mr. Feldman
before I will even consider it.

- We'll adjourn till 2:00.
- You cannot be serious.

I'm going to at least listen,
Mr. Nixon, before saying no to this.

-00.

Listen, I got another plumbing
job, so I'm gonna be goin'.

Here's the final bill.

Well-Well, what do you mean,
you have another plumbing job?

I got another job.
Plumbers do that.

If it's okay, though, I'd really like to
say good-bye to Maddie before I leave.

Well, now hold-hold...
Hold on a second, Victor.

What-What's going on? Nothin'.

I'm movin' on. What, I
can't do that? Yes, you can.

But can you tell
me what's going on?

Ally, you're free to parent
your child any way you see fit.

But I can't sit quietly while
you pass on bigotry. What?

- And if I don't sit quietly,
you'll fire me anyway.
- What-What bigotry?

- I don't want to talk about it.
- Well, we are talking about it.

You brought it up, so
why don't you have the

integrity to finish what
you were about to say?

Hey! My type
doesn't have integrity.

I come from a different world
than people with integrity.

I heard ya, Ally...

Talkin' about class
distinction to Maddie.

I'm a plumber from a
different world, huh?

I was not talking about
class distinction, Victor.

I was talking about
you and me as a couple.

Fine.

I got it wrong.

Send me the check. Victor...

Could... Can you just
look at me, please?

Are you interested
in-in you and me as...

No.

So why the hurt?

'Cause I don't like bein' dismissed
simply because I'm a plumber.

Well, I didn't do that.

You know, you don't know
the first thing about my world.

We never talk about my world.

You're makin' assumptions based on what I
do, and that's prejudice. I don't like it.

Mmm.

You're an elitist, Ally.

Please don't raise
your daughter as one.

I'm certainly in no position to
make a contribution to society.

My daughter...

She can certainly
make a contribution...

- but only if she lives.
- Have you met with the prison
psychiatrist, Mr. Feldman?

Yes, and they have
deemed me of sound mind.

This is a competent
choice. And a loving one.

Is that important...
That it's loving?

Yes. To me, anyway. I've
never been a father to her.

I went to jail when she was six.

I k*lled her mother.

I have given her nothing
but extreme anguish.

Maybe it's time...

Your Honor? Please let me do
this. Let me save my daughter.

You sound like
you're in anguish.

Are you, sir? Of course.

- And you love
your daughter very much?
- Yes.

So between your love
for her and your anguish,

this decision is fraught
with a great deal of emotion.

Obviously. Obviously.

Do you feel you can
make a sound decision...

while fraught with
anguish and emotion?

- You m*rder*d your wife...
- Objection!

- Overruled.
- But, Your Honor, this
isn't relevant to this case.

Mr. Millbury, sit down. Your client
wants a court order to k*ll himself.

Certainly his emotional
state is relevant.

This is a reflective decision.

I have no real life ahead of me.

She does. I owe her.

This is a sound,
reflective decision.

Are you doing this
out of guilt, Daddy?

Because before, you said
that you didn't want to live,

and that I should take your
heart as a windfall of your death.

But that is not what
you said on the stand.

Are you doing this out of guilt?

One of the reasons I don't
want to live is guilt, Serena.

I'm not sure that
answers your question.

Well... I am not gonna
have you k*ll yourself for me.

Serena, do you know what the
essence of living is for a parent?

It's protecting his child. I've
done a terrible job of that, I know.

But now, I would think...

to be living, a life
has to have meaning.

The only relevance in my...

Was your birth.

I'm just trying to get a little
continued meaning here, that's all.

This is a very selfish
thing I'm doing.

Trust me.

All right, they just called a
witness of their own... Beth Herman.

Do we know her?

Oh. Uh, my Aunt.

My mother's sister.
She's who I live with now.

Why would they be calling her?

Um... 'Cause she's against this.

There's nothing wrong
with being an elitist, Ally.

In fact, I think more
people should be.

Why? Please.

The way this society
celebrates the common man...

The common man takes his
shirt off in subzero weather,

paints his face red
and yells, "Go, Patriots!"

Nothing wrong with having
standards. Yeah, but there...

There is a difference between having
standards and-and-and being a snob.

Ally, with Victor,
you'd be dating down.

Not that it can't work.

In fact, some
women even like that.

But you'll always wonder...

Perhaps you could have
had everything you wanted.

I mean, Victor,
as cute as he is...

He's a plumber.

- Did that help at all?
- Oh, uh... Yeah.

What are you doing here?

Your Honor,

we're both older people,

and I think we have a sense
of what's important in life.

- Here we have a young woman...
- I will ask you to leave now.

You may not be an attorney,
but I still regard this as ex parte,

and you're out of
order, Miss Otoms.

Very well.

But I would hate to see such an
important case affected by the...

The elephant in the room.

What elephant in the room?

Oh, Your Honor,
neither of us can deny...

that there is a certain...
sexual energy between us.

There's nothing wrong
with that, but I have noticed...

you've been a little bit
erratic in court lately.

And we must not let
surging testosterone...

compromise the future
of a 16-year-old girl.

If you don't leave immediately,
I'll have you incarcerated...

In another state! Very well.

But please don't let her die.

I'm back.

Wh-Wh-What do you
mean, you're back?

Oh. Well, uh, I was
hopin' to move in.

Move i... Move... Move in?

Are you thinking about it?

Why are you talking to the door?

What?

Oh, I-I just, uh... I
do that sometimes.

I... I talk to doors or
windows, ceilings... Whatever.

Huh. Do they ever talk back?

Well, now why would I need them
to talk back when I have a daughter?

Ally, are you okay?

Me? Sure.

Do you have any idea
how serious this is?

You cannot go to a judge in the middle
of a trial. And to make an advance on him?

For God sakes, Claire, we're in
the middle of a very serious case.

You're getting emotional.

You're damn right
I'm emotional! I'm...

I don't believe it.

First of all, I did
not make advances.

And even if I did, at my age, I
advance like continental drift.

This isn't funny, Claire.
You see me laughing?

You think I don't
want to save this girl?

You told me yourself this
was an impossible case.

I just thought, well, a
little charm wouldn't hurt.

We're the lawyers.
Let us handle it, okay?

You brought me
in. To take notes.

All I wanted to do was shoo
the elephant out of the room.

- What's wrong with that?
- Let us handle this, okay?

Are you... Are you
capable of that, Claire?

You don't have to
get gruff with me.

The woman Mr. Feldman
k*lled was your sister? Yes.

And Serena is your niece? Yes.

And you come here today
to court against the idea...

of his donating his heart? Yes.

Can you tell us why, Ms. Herman?

I love my niece, and of
course I want her to live.

But to allow that
man to be a hero,

to give him the opportunity to go
to his grave as some kind of savior...

I very much object to that. Why?

He's a m*rder*r. He sh*t
and k*lled a human being.

And instead of
serving a life sentence,

he's looking to buy redemption
with one of his organs.

That opportunity should not be
offered to people who take the lives...

If he wants to
k*ll himself, fine.

But he shouldn't get to feel
noble. He is not a noble person.

You obviously loved
your sister a great deal.

And I still do. This
is her daughter.

- What would she want?
- Well, she would want
to save Serena.

- That's who she was.
- But that's not who you are?

The memories of the
victims are not honored...

by honoring the
memories of the murderers.

And if you let the
murderers be heroes,

you will very much
be honoring them.

I'm sorry, Serena.
I do love you.

And I would do everything in my
power to help you get a new heart.

But not his. Not his.

Uh, may I say something here?

Whether this happens or not,

this is between
me and my father.

It does not involve her.

We take into consideration the
feelings of the victims, Ms. Feldman.

No offense to my aunt,

but... I'm the victim.

It was my mother.


She thinks that she has
some priority on pain.

I'm the victim.

Driver, wait up!

Uh-huh.

Look, um, if I
offended you, I'm sorry.

The truth is, I think if anything,
I was trying to protect Maddie.

You were protecting Maddie, huh?

Yeah. Yeah, I think she's
getting very attached to you,

and think she's beginning to hope that
you're gonna be around forever, and...

And since my pipes are good...
Ally, there's no need to apologize.

Just send me my money.

Here's your check, you big turd.

And to think that I came
here to ask you out.

Yeah, as if I'd be
interested. Go to... Go to hell!

Been there. Your place.

You kicked me? You deserved it.

You know, just for your
information, I have a college degree.

I may not use the big words
like "turd," but I'm in your league.

Oh, listen to this... First you
accuse me of being an elitist,

and now you're flaunting
your college education.

You're-You're-You're
a hypocrite. Go to hell.

- Do it again, I'll sue you.
- For what, a concussion?

Are we done here? No!

No, I'm still asking you out.

Why?

Because I have a
thing for plumbers,

and I hate people who
mentally challenge me.

Because I like you,
Victor. Uh, a little.

You don't have to
get carried away, but...

you can... pick me
up in your... your truck.

This is a mistake.

You're the one who said he
was cute. No, I mean your hair.

You shouldn't
go with the big do.

This is... This is...
This is not a big do.

I... This is... Well, how-how long,
exactly, have you been dating?

Well, my father dated a lot. He
told me what men like and don't.

You know, you're-you're-you're
slowing me down here. Just...

Fine.

What, exactly, did
your father say?

Well, for starters, he said
that if she got all gussied up,

then he knew he had her...

You know, in the B-A-G, bag.

But this is... This is
just making it neat.

This is hardly "gussied."

Well, the only problem is, Victor's
seen you many times before, Ally.

He's gonna think something's
up if your hair is neat.

Oh, by the way,
it's already 3:00.

You really think you can pull
it all together in just five hours?

Did you ever consider that I
might actually be nervous...

about this date, and that I
might need your support?

- I-I haven't been on a date
in a year.
- What about that Glenn?

Oh, that was a double date, and
he was a play toy. This is a real date.

This is... I'm going out
with somebody I'm...

I'm going out with somebody
that I could actually...

What is wrong?

Huh?

Noth... Nothing, I just...

Of course there's the
potential for all kinds of abuse.

And of course the ethics
of state-assisted suicides...

We've... We've heard the
arguments. They're all very terrifying.

But why, Your
Honor, in response...

to potential abuse, do
courts set absolutes?

Why can't we just look at
the merits of this case alone?

How are ethics best served here?

Serena Feldman is dying.

We can prevent that
simply by allowing for it.

This man is in prison
for the rest of his life.

What's so wrong about permitting
him to contribute to society?

And giving life to somebody...
That is... some contribution.

We all run so scared
of slippery slopes...

and the possibility that things
could go wrong down the road.

Let's just address the
merits of this case alone,

and let Serena Feldman live.

I'm happy to consider the
merits of this case alone.

We don't k*ll some people
so that others may live.

Those are the
merits... And the ethics.

Now, Mr. Millbury is
essentially arguing...

that since Mr. Feldman is in prison for
the maximum term, his life is worth less.

No judge is qualified to
decide who's more worthy of life.

And the fact that
he's a prisoner...

We should be very wary about
permitting convicts to donate organs.

And don't think for a second
that won't amount to duress.

A man's up for parole.
His case is close.

His lawyer advises,
"Gee, if you...

If you give your kidney to a dying kid, the
parole board would have to be impressed."

Is that cynical? Of course.
But we all know it would happen.

Body parts should never
be used as currency.

That's not happening
today, sir. But it could.

But it's not. This case is about a father
wanting to give his heart to his daughter.

No, this case is about k*lling one
person so that another might live.

It's about deciding which
human being is more worthy of life.

Are you really
that good a judge?

Hello. I'm Claire Otoms.

I couldn't help
hearing in court.

You said you still
love your sister...

As if she's still present.

You must believe she has a soul.

And? Well, I'm curious...

What would her
soul think of this...

You resisting efforts
to save her daughter?

I don't owe you an
explanation, Ms. Otoms.

No.

I find if I hang around long
enough, I often get one.

I do believe people
have souls, Ms. Otoms.

His shouldn't get
salvation. Oh, I see.

Anger has such life
sometimes, doesn't it?

Where is she? She's
upstairs in her bathroom.

I didn't know who
else to call. Okay.

Ally?

Ally? Mmm.

I can't do it.

I can't go out with you.

Well, golly, woman.

I filled up my pickup
truck with a full t*nk of gas,

and brought your
favorite eight-track tapes.

I know you're trying to make
me laugh, but it's not gonna work.

But nice try.

No, I thought... I thought
that I was ready to...

To move on, to date,
and I just... I'm just...

I'm just in love
with somebody else.

Larry? Mmm.

God knows, I wish I wasn't.

And I just... I started getting ready for
the date, and everything just came back.

I mean, I hate him. I
really do. I hate him.

I hate him for
walking out. I do.

But I guess I just love
him too much to... I just...

Well, I really, really
hate myself for...

Mmm. Sorry.

It's okay. Go ahead,
call me pathetic.

You're not pathetic.
Well, I feel really stupid.

Well...

You want my college-degree
take on this, or...

my pickup-driver response?
Door number three... The plumber.

You move on...
Because you have to.

Mmm. College degree?

The first step to b*ating your
pain is confronting it head on.

The truck driver? All you
really need, Ally, is to get...

Victor...

Look, you loved
the guy... A lot.

That's gonna take some time.

It's supposed to.

You know, I don't
really feel like going out,

but if you... wanted to cook,

well, I-I'd eat it.

Why are you so good to me?

Mmm, are you-are you
gonna cook or not? I'll cook.

Mmm. Yeah, I will. I'll cook.

How much longer?

Well, if he's keeping us this
late, he, uh... he must be close.

Perhaps I should go check. No!

Gruff.

- What's wrong?
- Serena?

What?

Your father overpowered
a... a transport guard.

He evidently had the help
of others on the outside.

- Richard, what are you saying?
- He escaped.

He's gone.

Uh, was that his plan all along?

- Well, I don't know. Uh...
- Of course it was.

This was all about an escape.

The man k*lled my mother.
How could I be so stupid?

- Do they have any trace of him?
- No.

Um... I'm sorry.

I apologize for all this.

If this is who he is, Serena,
you don't want his heart.

Yeah. Anyway...

- Uh, Raymond Millbury.
- You represent Serena?

- Yeah. I'm her lawyer.
- Her father sh*t himself.

- When?
- About 15 minutes ago.

We have his donor card. His daughter
needs to come in for the transplant.

- Thank you.
- What... What now?

Serena...

Your father went to,
uh, Beth Israel Hospital.

He presented his donor card,

and then with a g*n...

he took his own life.

He, uh... He must have thought we
were gonna lose, so he had a backup plan.

We need to get
you to the hospital.

They're harvesting
the heart now.

Come on, uh, we need to go.

Let's go.

Okay, this is not
anyone's idea of a date...

I mean, first of all,
that I'm even here...

My dad didn't include
me on any of his dates.

What a shock.

Listen, uh, I'm gonna
let you in on a little secret.

When you do date... which is
gonna be in about 15 years...

when you're not grounded anymore
because of the cigarette, um...

Cooking a girl dinner...

is one of the most romantic
things a man can do.

- Trust me.
- Oh, I believe you, Ally.

I read it in Victor's
Men's Health magazine.

You did? Yeah, it said,

"Cook a girl dinner, you're
sure to get some after."

Could you go upstairs
for just a second?

And, uh, I'll call you
when dinner's ready.

You gonna bust him? Yes.

So, uh, that's what
this is all about?

- Uh, you plan to bed me down?
- Oh, you are so funny.

- No, I'm serious.
- I know you're serious.

That's what makes it so funny.
It was your idea for me to cook.

Right. You know, Victor,

it's been... it's been...

Well, it's been quite a day, so you-you...
Don't expect me to think clearly.

I won't.

I... I think I am being
clearheaded, though, when I say...

Thanks. You're welcome.

Dr. Sanders, Cardiology.

The transplant
team is coming in.

They really want
to do it tonight?

The sooner the better,
while the heart's still viable.

Well, I don't think I want
it anymore, after he...

Don't let his sacrifice be
for nothing, Serena. I don't...

I don't even know if I choose
to live at this point. It's just...

Serena, your father faced
death so you wouldn't have to.

He's given you his heart.

I didn't want it
to be like this.

Well, he didn't want it to
be like this, either, but...

he didn't think we
were going to win,

and we probably weren't.

Are you gonna do it?

I don't know.

I think you should.

Look, I've been blinded
by my hatred for...

Your mother would have
wanted this, and so do I.

So take his heart.
