Ms. A!
Good morning!
Good morning!
-Good morning.
-It's Judge Marina today.
So, everyone should be beautiful.
Attorney Miranda.
Attorney Lucero.
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Ms. A! We are going
to the fourth floor, Ms. A!
Excuse me!
Miss!
Seven is widely regarded
as a lucky number.
Seven seas upon which we depend on
for survival.
Seven days of the week,
we go on about our lives.
But, seven demons
possessed Mary Magdalene.
And like the famous woman of the Bible,
the defendant does not
consider the number seven lucky.
For seven years,
Mrs. Farias endured abuse,
hurt, and beatings by her husband.
We have presented police reports
and testimonies from the town's help desk
wherein the defendant
had been rescued several times
from her husband.
And on the night of January 13th 2022,
her husband was about to attack her
with a butcher's knife.
And so she hit him
with a hammer on the head.
Your Honor,
this woman is not a criminal.
She protected herself from the man
who was meant to protect her.
And that man was her husband.
Your Honor, she acted in self-defense
as proven by the evidence we presented.
With this, Your Honor,
we would like to ask you
to find Mrs. Farias not guilty of m*rder.
Oh, I'll get your laundry.
-You have nothing to wear for tomorrow.
-Oh, okay.
-Oh, my God.
-Thank you.
No problem.
Where are my keys?
Oh, no.
Another victory?
Youve been winning
your cases, Attorney Miranda.
Alexis?
I didnt know youve been
following my cases.
I'm proud of you.
I'm proud of me, too.
Do you realize
the judge would admonish you
with what you're wearing?
It's so awful!
I'm sorry, sir. Sorry.
Because I stayed overnight at the office
to finish everything
you needed for the hearing earlier.
I'm sorry.
You are working for Atticus.
You are representing me.
Yes, sir.
That is why we give you a clothing budget.
Use it.
Noted, sir. I'm sorry, sir.
I'm so sorry.
Oops.
Attorney Lucero.
I'm sorry, sir.
-Its fine.
-Let me help you.
You're not supposed to do this.
There are interns
and admin staff for this.
No, its fine. Ill do it.
Its not right, sir.
Wheres your room?
I'll bring your things there.
No need. I can carry that.
Nope.
Which room is it?
Come on. Hop on.
Okay, lets go.
Am I corny?
Actually, no.
You find me funny?
Yes, I do.
Good morning, Ms. A!
-Good morning.
-Here's your coffee.
Thank you.
Here's your tarot card of the day.
Ace of Pentacles.
Ace of Pentacles. I know this.
It's about money, isn't it?
-Correct.
-I like that.
-Ms. A.?
-I want money.
Good morning.
-I have news for you.
-Read one for me, too.
-Okay.
-Sure.
-Let's do it.
-Here, hear.
Okay.
-Good news.
-Good news. I like that.
We got an inquiry!
Zachary Chuas manager
called to set up an appointment.
Why are you all excited? Who is he?
Hes gorgeous, Ms. A.
Thats him. That's Zach.
Zachary is being sued by Madison Valencia.
I dont understand.
Who is Madison Valencia? Zachary Chua?
-Are these my relatives that I need--
-Ms. A, let me update you.
-Ms. A, they are celebrities.
-Correct.
-Influencers.
-I see.
Okay.
-I'll do the research.
-Of course.
What case?
r*pe.
He r*ped me.
He violated me.
Zachary Chua sexually assaulted me.
And I will make sure he pays for it.
EXIS
HERE'S YOUR FAVORITE!
He keeps calling me Exis.
Jerk.
-For Attorney Miranda, please.
-Oh.
-Here, ma'am.
-Thank you.
Hi, Attorney!
Sugar rush.
Looks like we won't
be able to have lunch later.
Thank you.
Is that the embezzlement case
of Fernando Ladron?
Yes, this is the record
of bank transfers of the company's fund
to the personal account of Mr. Ladron.
Good job.
But you might discover something else.
Sometimes the most obvious
is the one we don't see. Right?
You can do it.
Youre good.
Hi!
Happy birthday.
Thats next week.
For you.
-What is this?
-I noticed lately that
you're stressed out.
I hope this makes you happy.
Is that so?
This is an early gift.
Wait.
No way.
Wait, you remembered?
You thought I wasn't listening
when you told me that
your Grade 1 classmate
tore up your stationery.
Wow.
I didn't know
that you were paying attention.
Then my mom didn't buy me a new one.
Thank you.
All right, let's go home.
Okay.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
That's enough.
Wait, I'm almost done.
They might ask for this tomorrow.
Who will ask for it?
Guevarra?
-I'll take care of it.
-Yes.
Ill talk to him.
Ill talk to him.
Wait a minute.
Wait. How will you talk to him?
I heard he wont be
at the office tomorrow.
Hes on leave. Hes going to Europe.
So classy.
He travels to Europe
like it's near Quiapo.
I envy him.
Do you want to go
to Europe? We will go there.
To Rome? Paris? Venice?
No.
They say
its beautiful in Italy.
Florence?
I heard Florence is
more romantic than Paris.
Okay.
Let's go to Florence.
Stand up.
Stand up.
-Good night.
-Take care.
-All right, thank you.
-Bye, Attorney.
Bye, thank you.
I got it!
Look.
Look at the huge amount
in the money transfer.
Every time. And it was not even discreet
in all the transactions.
It all happened in 20 days.
Do you get it?
What are you saying?
Well, what I'm saying is
they want to make it obvious
that he's stealing money from the company.
So this is a setup?
Well, the question is whos doing it?
And whats the motive?
Adam. Alexis.
The son of Fernando Ladron called.
Do you think it's time we schedule
a briefing with the new witness?
Uh
Attorney, I think
we need a little bit more time
to go through the documents
-presented--
-Dad!
-Miss Kate, let me help you with that.
-Hey.
-There you are.
-Hello, Kate.
What are you doing here?
Thank you so much, maam.
-You're welcome.
-What's that?
Nice.
Oh!
You know I'm not allowed to have this.
I knew you'd be
working late, so I brought this.
Wait.
You need something, right?
-Dad, how could you say that?
-What do you want?
No, Dad.
You know I always want to see you.
-But there is this trip.
-I knew it.
Try one.
Thank you.
He doesn't like sweets.
Try one, it's really good.
So, about that trip, Dad.
I knew it.
Dad, please!
-No.
-I really wanted to go.
Kate, come on.
Theyre here!
-This way, please.
-Is the A/C working?
So, this is Attorney Alexis Miranda.
-And this is Sir Joni.
-Hi, Attorney.
-The manager of the Zachary Chua.
-Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
Okay.
You want coffee? Juice?
Beer!
Do you have beer?
-Just beer.
-Beer?
Water. With lemon.
-Oh, we have that.
-Thank you.
-Excuse me.
-Don't you have beer?
Traffic was so bad.
It's okay. We can get started.
Zachary.
Mr. Chua,
could you tell me exactly what happened
on the night of March 30th 2024?
It was a Saturday night.
Which means date night.
Madison demands that every Saturday
-we must always be together.
-I'm here.
I'm bored.
I've been waiting here since 11 a.m.
I've been wanting to go swimming.
Youre so late.
Are you bored, Mads?
This is it. Well do something.
What do you do on your date night?
Well, we can't be seen in public.
So that night,
we went out of town in a rented villa.
Don't you miss me?
You know what?
I'm tired of being your secret.
Mads.
Just give me time.
We will become official.
But let's not rush it.
How about a soft launch first?
So, when?
Soon.
Come on.
-Come on, Mads?
-Okay, fine.
Hey wait!
And that's it.
We had sex.
Okay. So,
was it consensual?
Of course.
Attorney,
weve been doing it for a long time.
Why is she accusing you of r*pe?
Because she was angry with me that night.
She took my phone while I was sleeping.
And then she discovered something.
Wake up, jerk!
Whos this Christine?
My follower. What are you talking about?
I cant believe this.
Is this the reason why
you dont want us to be official?
So you can still flirt with anybody?
Go back to sleep. Just shut up.
-I want to sleep.
-Lets end this now!
Get out!
-What the hell?
-Get out!
Shes angry. Thats why
she wants to ruin my career.
So, was that the last time you saw her?
Yes.
What's this, Joni?
Attorney, can you help us?
I'm not guilty.
I didnt r*pe her.
Why Miranda and Associates?
You can go to bigger law firms.
Why me?
It was my idea.
We can pay no matter how much.
And you're right.
We can get the biggest law firm
to represent us. But
But what?
But its better if a woman defends Zach.
Someone who comes from a
humble law firm.
Small-time, you mean?
Attorney,
you're one of the best
female lawyers in the city.
So, this is all for optics?
Attorney, they say that guilty people
hire the most expensive lawyers
from the biggest law firms.
But if you represent us,
people's perception will be different.
-Two million pesos.
-Whoa!
Yes, two million pesos acceptance fee.
Plus 20% down payment, non-refundable,
and we also need
a monthly retainer's fee of 50,000 pesos.
That does not include
the 10,000 pesos appearance fee
whenever she goes to the court,
whether there is a hearing or not.
Okay, my team will get back to you
as soon as possible.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
-Attorney, thank you for your time.
-Yes.
-Joni,
-Yes.
if I'm going to accept this case,
we have to make sure
that Zachary cooperates.
He has to obey everything I say.
-Yes, Attorney.
-Hold on!
We are here
to hire you.
-You're a small-time lawyer.
-Zachary!
Why does it seem
that we owe you a debt of gratitude?
I wont be following your orders.
Zachary, stop!
Mr. Chua, look at you.
I don't think you understand
or you know the gravity of your situation.
You are being accused of r*pe.
Don't you know how serious that is?
Don't act like I need you.
Youre the one who needs me.
Do you know why I charge that much?
Mr. Chua, I have never lost a case.
Why would I risk my name to defend you?
-Attorney. Attorney, it's okay.
-Doesn't it seem like
you need me more than I need you?
My card.
Attorney, its fine.
Just make sure that I win this case.
Make sure that you are worth every peso
that I'm paying you.
Zach, let's go!
Attorney, we'll see you soon.
Zach, let's go.
Thank you so much for your time.
-Joni, what's that?
-Mr. Chua, Sir Joni.
I thought she was going to be cheap.
Zach!
Why don't we just hire a famous lawyer
from a bigger law firm?
Can you just trust me, please?
Let's not talk here.
-Thank you.
-Thank you so much.
Its my money youre spending.
Zachary!
Find someone better.
We can't mess this up.
Zachary, can you just trust me?
This is embarrassing.
Take care.
Okay, let's get started.
Find me anything
about Madison and Zachary.
Previous relationships, dating history,
everything. Okay?
Marisue, that's easy for you
because youre his follower, right?
Not anymore. He's a turn off.
Ms. A., hes so entitled.
And arrogant.
There are a lot of people like him.
They come from rich families
who never struggled their entire lives.
And they think that
they can just do anything
and then get away with it.
Ms. A., there's a man looking for you.
Super handsome with dimples.
Ms. A., he is absolutely gorgeous!
Attorney Caliente.
Matthew Caliente.
Okay, tell him he has
five minutes to talk to me.
Just five minutes?
Wait.
Ex!
Exis!
How are you?
I'm good.
You?
I'm doing good, too.
Thank you for giving me a few minutes
of your precious time, Attorney Miranda.
I'm sure your time is also limited.
I know how stressful
it is to work for Atticus.
So,
hows life as Adams sl*ve?
So, I'm an enemy now?
I know this is your drink.
Why are you here, Math?
I mean, Attorney Caliente.
I'm here because there is talk
that you are going
to represent Zachary Chua.
And?
Atticus will be
representing Madison Valencia.
Oh.
So, this is the Trojan horse.
Isn't there something
more expensive than this?
-Sure, give it back.
-But I'll take it.
Ex,
Im telling you so you won't be surprised.
You'll be seeing more of me
and Attorney Lucero.
Is that a threat?
I just want to make sure
that there is no conflict of interest.
Don't worry, Math.
There's no conflict.
And I can assure you,
there is no interest.
-Your time is--
-Is up?
I know.
I'll see you soon.
Congratulations for winning the case.
Thank you.
-Congratulations.
-Congrats.
Congrats.
To more victories!
This is an unbeatable team!
Thank you, sir.
Kudos to Attorney Miranda, sir.
Her research was thorough.
Yes, but you were the team leader.
So, because of that,
the Board of Trustees
has decided to promote you
as a junior partner.
-Wow!
-Congratulations, Attorney Lucero!
Thank you!
Adam.
-Yes.
-Congratulations!
Great job!
There is somebody waiting
for you in the office.
Thank you.
Congrats!
I have another announcement to make.
We've been hiding this
-from you for a long time.
-Congrats.
Because I don't want any of you to think
that this announcement has anything to do
with Attorney Lucero's promotion.
After all, Attorney Lucero
deserves his promotion, correct?
But Attorney Lucero
will soon be a full partner of this firm
because he is going
to be a member of our family.
-Wow!
-Congratulations!
Adam and Kate are getting married!
Wow!
Congratulations!
f*ck him!
Can you believe?
We've been going out for months.
I can't remember.
We've been together for a few months.
And then I find out
that hes getting married!
I'm getting married.
And not just with anybody.
What the f*ck!
He's marrying our boss's daughter.
It hurts so much. f*ck this!
How's my ego, bro?
I can't believe
you're getting married to that rich b*tch!
What the f*ck?!
Jerk! Stupid!
f*ck him! What a jerk!
Yes, he's a jerk.
Cheers!
For stupid jerks.
Oh, sh*t!
Excuse me.
I don't talk to strangers.
Okay. Be careful.
Whoa, whoa!
-Uh
-Be careful, okay.
Excuse me.
I can handle myself.
See, I can do it.
To all the men
who do not know how to love,
f*ck you!
f*ck all of you!
-f*ck this!
-Hey.
-f*ck!
-Careful.
-Take a seat.
-I'm fine.
Okay?
Are you all right?
I still want to drink.
Seems like you had enough.
-No, no.
-Give it to me.
Give it to me!
Son of a b*tch! Give me that!
-I want to drink some more!
-Hey, hey!
That's enough!
You already drank enough!
-This is mine now.
-Relax.
Oh, okay.
-That's enough.
-Buy more of this. Quick.
That's enough.
Hey, hey!
Okay, that's enough.
-You're drunk enough already, okay?
-Okay.
-Okay?
-Okay.
Okay.
So, you're getting married.
Let's not talk here.
Why not?
You don't want your girlfriend to know?
I'm sorry. I mean, your fiance.
How was it?
You dated both of us at the same time?
How did that happen, huh?
Since when?
-We don't have a relationship.
-Wait.
What?
So what was that?
We were just colleagues who had sex?
Huh?
Okay.
I get it now.
You just f*cked me.
You know what we are and what we are not.
I have to go.
Okay. Yeah, I'll see you.
Yes, I'll be there right away.
Sir.
We have a new intern
whos coming in today.
He'll be here for about eight weeks.
I want you to be his mentor.
Uh, by mentor, you mean
Teach him everything
that he needs to learn.
It's up to you, okay?
Okay, sir.
Attorney, they are waiting
for you at the conference now.
-Tell them I'll follow.
-And sir, the intern is here now.
Oh, Matthew. Please, send him in.
You will like Matthew.
Yeah, he's a nice man.
Matthew.
-Hello, sir.
-Welcome to Atticus.
How are you, Attorney Guevarra?
This is Attorney Alexis Miranda.
She will be your mentor.
-Hi.
-Alexis, this is Matthew.
And youll handle him, okay?
Yes, sir.
So, your name is Alexis.
Uh, call me Attorney Miranda.
Were not close.
Don't you remember me?
I'm sorry.
Have we met?
So, where is the jerk who two-timed you
with the boss's daughter?
Oh, my God! Was it you?
You are a law student?
Miss Valencia,
do you personally know Mr. Zachary?
The accused in this case?
Yes.
Please tell us about
your relationship with Zachary.
Were dating.
Dating?
But he's not your boyfriend?
We're not official.
There's no label.
Can you tell us what happened
on the night of March 30th 2024?
He
r*ped me!
Can you tell us what happened?
We rented a villa out of town.
Do it.
You said you and Zachary are dating.
Can you make it clear what that means?
We hang out. We go on dinner dates.
Clubbing sometimes.
Most of the time, we go out of town.
And when you go out of town,
what do you usually do?
What people usually do on a date.
-Meaning?
-Kissing. MOMOL
Sex.
Miss Valencia, what is
the meaning of MOMOL?
Your Honor, MOMOL means
Make Out, just Making Out.
So, you guys have sex often?
Yes.
-Mads! What the hell, Madison!
-What?
Whats this? Just continue.
Whos that?
Give me the phone.
What the hell.
What made you say that he r*ped you
on March 30th 2024?
Because he forced me.
I said I didn't want to,
but he did it anyway.
Tell me who's calling.
-Give it to me.
-I told you, stop it.
Give it to me.
Give it to me!
Youre a jerk!
Is that why you don't
want the public to know
that were in a relationship?
So that you can continue
flirting with other women?
Are you crazy?
Zach, don't.
Zach, I said stop.
-Zach, what the hell!
-What happened then?
-What the hell!
-He left.
Did you say anything
to him before he left?
Nothing.
Miss Valencia,
what made you decide
to file a case against Zachary?
I know no one will believe me
because Zach and I have
been having sex for a long time.
They think it's useless
for me to complain about r*pe
because we are almost in a relationship.
But women deserve to be respected.
We should not be exploited.
We should not be forced.
We shouldn't be violated.
Your Honor, presenting Exhibit A,
medico-legal filed by
the complainant that same night.
No further questions, Your Honor.
Does the defense have
any questions for cross-examination?
Yes, Your Honor.
You may proceed.
Miss Valencia,
how long have you been dating Mr. Chua?
Six months.
How long have you been
sexually active with Mr. Chua?
Six months.
In the span of six months,
could you tell me
how many times youve had sex?
Objection! Irrelevant.
Your Honor,
we need to establish
the dynamics of the apparent relationship
between the accused and the complainant.
We need to quantify
how often they have sex.
This would help us figure out
if what happened to them
was consensual or not.
Overruled.
Go on, Miss Madison.
Would you know how many times
you've had sex with Mr. Chua?
I can't count anymore.
It's okay.
You can give me an estimate.
Is it once a week? Twice a week?
Every day?
Every week. We have sex every week.
So you have sex almost every week.
That is six months times four weeks.
So more or less, 24 times.
Am I correct?
-More or less.
-How many rounds do you go in a day?
Objection! The question is vague.
Overruled.
Miss Valencia,
could you tell me
how many times you have sex in one day?
Is it once a day,
twice a day, three times a day?
Give me a number.
Three, most of the time.
Sometimes, one or two.
-Maximum is eight times.
-Eight.
Eight times.
I guess it's fair to say
that you enjoy having sex with Mr. Chua?
-Objection!
-Was it good?
Objection!
Sustained.
Miss Valencia,
you've had sex
with Mr. Chua numerous times.
Was there ever a time that he forced you
to have sex when you didn't want to?
That night only.
Did you say no directly?
Of course.
I didnt want it. That's why I said no.
Did he hear you say no?
I pushed him. I said, "Stop!"
I said, "I don't want to."
Miss Valencia,
I am going to repeat the question.
Did Mr. Chua hear you say no?
-Miss Valencia, do you understand
-Stop it!
-that
-You're crazy, right?
-you and Mr. Chua
-Zach, stop!
-would have sex multiple times
-Stop it!
-in a day?
-Zach, stop!
Is there even the slightest chance
-that he might have misunderstood
-Stop it, please.
-what you were saying?
-Stop it!
That what came across was that
you didn't want him
to stop what he was doing?
Objection!
-Sustained.
-Miss Valencia,
do you love Mr. Chua?
Could you describe to me
your feelings for Mr. Chua
before the alleged r*pe
on March 30th 2024?
Yes, I like him.
I love him.
Because I wouldn't agree
to have sex with him
if I didn't have feelings for him.
But that night, I didn't want to.
But he continued anyway.
He forced me.
He r*ped me.
Miss Valencia,
what do you do for a living?
I'm an influencer.
How much is your monthly income?
Objection!
Your Honor, I am curious to know
how much Miss Madison makes.
I used to work for Atticus,
and I know how much
they charge to represent a client.
If she was truly r*ped,
she wouldn't feel the need
to hire a high-end legal service
unless she sees
this case as an investment.
You invest in it
because you know
youll get a lot of money from it.
-Objection!
-Attorney, do you think I'm doing this
for money?
Is that what you think of me?
I did not say that.
Those words came out of your mouth.
No further questions, Your Honor.
I'm tired of this.
-Please.
-I understand.
We'll take care of this.
-Madison, can we talk?
-f*ck! What the hell!
-Zach.
-Look, Madison.
-Please, relax. Look at me.
-Don't come near me!
-What the hell!
-Stop it, Zachary!
-Relax.
-Come on, Madison.
Don't waste your time.
Stop this.
Are you stupid?
Why? You knew from the start
that we were not in a relationship.
f*ck you!
-Zach, let's go.
-f*ck you!
Just go!
-Keep him away, please!
-We should leave!
-Madison!
-Just go!
And you, Attorney, youre also a woman.
Why are you defending that maniac?
Have you ever been hurt
and exploited by the man
you once loved and trusted?
Madison, enough. It won't help the case.
Alex.
Alex.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
-No.
-Alex.
How did that happen?
It just happened.
Give me a drink.
No. No.
You have no f*cking right!
-No!
-No?
f*ck you! No! Get the f*ck out of here!
Fine! All right.
f*ck you!
You come in to my home
and take my alcohol as if it's yours?
f*ck you!
Fine.
Tell me. f*ck!
How long have you been together?
Four months.
Where was I in those four months?
My feelings for you are real, Alex.
But what?
Youre marrying her.
Kate is pregnant.
Do you love her?
Hey.
-I need to marry her.
-Bullshit!
f*ck! f*cking bullshit!
You need to marry her
not because she's f*cking pregnant.
You need to marry her
because of your f*cking ambition!
Your f*cking dreams!
Her f*cking last name!
So, tell me.
Enough.
Enough!
Adam, enough! No!
I said, enough. No!
Stop!
Please.
No!
No! No!
No!
No! No! No!
No!
No!
No!
No!
No!
Alex.
Good morning.
Let me go.
About what happened to us last night,
you can't tell anyone, okay?
So that your fiance wont find out?
So that we can continue
to work together well.
We're a team, right?
Let's forget that.
I have no intention of telling
anybody about what happened.
Good.
f*ck you.
Adam.
Why am I no longer
included in the Tuason case?
Not for now.
I already have preliminary research.
I have also talked to the client.
Write it down. Hand it over to me.
We can still use that.
What happened to us being a team?
Now we will keep on
winning cases together?
You have many other cases.
You still have a case
with Mr. Galang, don't you?
The annulment case.
Also, you're still training the new OJT.
That's it!
I didn't go to law school
and top the bar exams to become a nanny
to entitled law students
who just want to explore the legal world.
Why am I always
assigned to train the OJTs?
No, I want to be in that case.
See?
See?
That's why I took you
off of the Tuason case.
-You are too emotional.
-Wow.
You're also invested in that case.
That won't help us.
Who knows, you might
suddenly break down during the trial.
Oh, sh*t.
There will be other chances.
The problem with you women,
is that you easily get carried--
You are not rational
because you are too emotional.
No, don't--
Don't give me that bullshit!
What are you saying about us women?
That we are emotional
and you men are rational?
Emotions do not only involve crying.
You want to talk about men,
and how men behave?
Being too proud, being hot-headed?
How about being rude and chauvinistic?
Tell me.
-It was Attorney Guevarra's idea.
-Come on.
-I'm just following instructions.
-Come on.
You're my senior associate.
If you really want to, you can find ways.
But you know what? I get it.
I know why you don't want me in this case.
Domestic abuse.
Betrayal.
Infidelity.
It hits close to home.
Attorney, Mr. Galang called
to say that we were unable
to submit their annulment case.
What?
But I already gave my recommendation
to Adam last week.
Attorney Lucero is on leave.
Why is he on leave?
Because he is getting married
this weekend to Ms. Kate.
So?
If the wedding is still on the weekend,
why is he taking an early leave?
Because the wedding is in Florence.
Florence?
As in Italy?
Okay.
When are they coming back?
I don't have any idea.
But they will have
their honeymoon in Paris,
then to Vienna.
Then maybe go to Budapest too.
So, maybe next month.
f*ck!
You dozed off?
You're blocking the way.
Sorry, sorry.
Wait.
What am I blocking?
Do you know you look cute
when being teased?
So you think you're cute too?
Yes.
Don't you think Im cute now?
You're a lawyer now.
You should be acting more mature.
Hold on a second.
We used to be okay.
Since the last time we saw each other
I noticed you find me so G.
What does G mean?
You find me gorgeous.
No? How about grumpy?
Why is that?
Is it because I'm with Atticus now?
They hired me.
I didn't force myself on them.
Plus,
you are the reason why
they saw the potential in me.
Exis, we are not enemies here.
Okay?
Were opposing parties in court.
But we can still be friends, right?
I always tell people
most of the things
I've learned about being a lawyer,
I've learned them from you.
You haven't changed at all, Math.
-You think I'm still charming?
-Oh, no.
Youre still arrogant.
Has anyone else read this?
No one, ma'am.
Next time, you need to be thorough
if you want to be a lawyer.
If a simple typo slips through you,
small details will also slip through
that will affect your case.
So redo this. You can't go home
until it's done.
Your wish is my command.
Mr. Caliente.
Math.
Math.
Okay. Math.
One of the things you should learn
if you really want to be a lawyer
is to have confidence.
Even though you know youll lose,
you should never show fear or doubt.
Check this.
When you are sure,
give it back to me.
Remember, if you have a mistake,
you will drive me for a month,
Math.
I agree with one month.
One more tip.
Respect your coworker's time.
Do not submit your work to your boss
during her break time.
Professionalism.
That's one of the things
people like you should learn.
But you know, to be honest,
I think you've edged out
a lot more qualified candidates
simply because of your surname.
The perks of being the favorite child
of very powerful parents.
You're wrong about one thing.
The reason I decided to train here
is that my dad doesn't want me
to mess up in his firm,
unlike my other siblings
who were educated
in Ivy League schools in the US.
Okay?
But,
I believe in you.
There are two typos.
You spelled judgment wrong.
There's no letter E before ment.
In US spelling, there is only one E.
In the UK, my spelling is correct.
Both spellings are accepted.
Okay.
But in legal documents
they don't use E.
This is the only preferred spelling.
Anyway, I already put my address there
because I know youll lose.
So tomorrow pick me up early.
Youre late.
Traffic was too heavy.
I live far from here, you know.
Oh, okay.
-So it's my fault?
-Let me carry that for you.
Hmm?
This is for you.
I know you haven't had breakfast yet.
Thanks.
Please come early tomorrow.
How about some coffee?
Mr. Caliente, you started this bet.
You said you would drive
for me if you lost.
Next time,
don't make promises you can't keep.
Noted, Attorney.
Thank you.
Wait.
I left my heart bag in your car.
-Your wish is my command.
-Thank you.
-I'll go get it.
-Thanks.
Is it part of the intern's training
to drive for you?
You're back.
Did you miss me?
Didn't you just come back
from your honeymoon?
Morning.
Ex.
Ex!
Hello?
What is this for?
I need you to sign this.
Im done with my internship.
But why me?
Shouldn't you ask HR for this?
You are my direct supervisor.
Okay.
Sign it now.
So its your last day today.
I know our one month deal is not over yet.
Its fine, you're off the hook.
How about if I teach you how to drive?
I don't have a car,
and I don't have money to buy my own car.
But one day, you will have one.
Manifesting.
In exchange for what?
Nothing.
Oh, come on.
Everything has a price.
Nothing.
And I'm sure if I teach you how to drive,
I can still learn something from you.
You can share some tips or advice
on how to be a good lawyer.
So you want something in return.
Sustained.
Hey, Caliente!
-Yeah?
-How about a farewell party?
-Thats right.
-Sure.
When?
Tonight.
-Are you inviting all of us?
-Yes, all of you.
Yes, all of us. Let's go.
Attorney, you should come.
You didnt give up mentoring me.
I owe you a lot.
Whats going on?
Attorney, Math will be
having a farewell party tonight.
You should come, Ms. Kate.
Ill go ahead. I have a meeting.
-Cheers for Matthew!
-Cheers!
-For Matthew!
-Thank you, guys!
-Finally, I can enjoy my lunch!
-Congrats!
Thank you, Lord!
-Youre mean.
-Thats harsh.
He always bothers me.
By the way, Attorney,
how was the honeymoon?
Of course, it was fun.
Wow.
Which city is more romantic?
Paris or Florence?
Actually, it's Florence.
Nice.
-He wanted us to go there.
-Well, there you go.
He made the whole itinerary
and everything.
-Very sweet.
-That's true.
But everywhere is romantic
because I'm with him.
So sweet.
Who wants to order more food?
You might still want to order.
Are you having a baby soon?
That's for sure.
That's my man.
Cheers for Attorney Lucero and Ms. Kate!
-Congratulations, guys!
-Thank you.
Congrats.
-Congratulations.
-Sorry.
Excuse me for a sec.
Sorry.
Thank you so much.
Hey, guys. Let's have a drink.
Matthew is asking
for more food. Let's order.
What is this? Solo flight?
They're a bunch of losers.
Does it still hurt?
Which one?
Seeing Attorney Lucero
with his new wife.
Why?
Why are you looking at me like that?
Nothing. For happy vibes.
Oh.
It's annoying.
Well, what makes you think I'm sad?
Is it because Adam is married,
and they went
on their honeymoon to Florence.
Did you know that I was the one
who told him about Florence?
That's where I wanted to go with him.
But that's life.
Its no big deal.
They're having a baby.
I get you.
Youre hurt.
You got angry.
But what stuck with me
during our conversation that time was
that no matter what Attorney Lucero did
you still love him so much--
Idiot.
f*ck you. Keep quiet.
My gosh.
sh*t.
Well.
So, why do you want to be a lawyer?
Aren't you from a family of lawyers?
Is that the reason why
that is the path you want to take?
Well, growing up,
I would always listen to my dad
talk to his clients during the day,
and it caught my attention.
So I said, one day
I just want to be like my dad.
How about you?
Same. I became a lawyer
because of my father.
Is he also a lawyer?
Criminal.
-Criminal?
-Its true.
-Is he a criminal?
-Yes he is.
-Are you serious?
-It's true. Hes a convicted felon.
Sorry.
There's no need to say sorry.
Well
My father was accused of stealing
from a pawnshop in our province.
He ran away.
You see,
my moms world revolved around my father.
So when my father disappeared,
her life lost meaning.
She got sick. And then
she passed away.
So my aunt put me through school.
And here I am.
Wheres your father now?
I searched for him for a long time.
I finally found him after 15 years.
He is in jail for a different case.
Estafa.
Papa.
Merry Christmas, Papa.
I read your name in the newspaper.
I thought someone has
the same name as you.
It said that person is a lawyer.
I strongly believed that it was you.
Papa, I have a gift for you.
This is your favorite.
Sorry.
I can't help crying.
Papa, I became a lawyer because of you.
And I will make sure
that you will get out of here.
I will find a way.
I am not a victim.
It's true that I stole from the pawnshop.
I was just scared to go to jail,
so I ran away.
I did not face up to my crime.
Its all true.
The Estafa case.
I'm not
I am not a victim.
-And then what?
-I did not try to see him again.
Were you able to help him?
No.
I was unable to help him.
Because you see, Math,
the reason I became a lawyer is
because I want to help
people like my father.
Those who were wrongly accused
who no one believed
or helped to prove their innocence.
Only for me to find out
that my father is actually guilty.
Ex, is that really the reason?
You probably felt betrayed.
It's like all the reasons why you did that
was all because of a lie.
Hold that thought.
I'm going to the ladies' room.
Why?
Are you doing this on purpose?
Huh?
Are you using the kid to make me jealous?
Excuse me.
Not everything is about you.
Okay.
You win.
I'm jealous.
So that's enough. Please.
Don't drag him into this nonsense.
What? Hold on.
Who are you to tell me what I should do?
Let me remind you of something.
You're married.
And your wife is here.
Excuse me, please.
-Excuse me.
-Alex.
What?
You are still the one I want.
Oh, f*ck.
Hon?
Oh.
Its early in the morning.
Let's go.
What?
I thought our deal was over?
I promised to teach you
how to drive. Right?
Its the weekend.
I made a promise, and I want to keep it.
So youre serious about that.
Mm-hmm.
Today is a perfect day.
Watch your hand.
Okay. Here are the keys.
-All right, and then?
-Ignition.
Wait. How do I do this? What should I do?
Turn clockwise.
-That's it.
-You got it, okay.
And then?
-Slowly go into drive.
-Drive.
And then slowly press on the gas.
Are you sure about this?
-Smoothly, yes.
-Wait.
-Wait.
-Yeah, okay.
You're doing good.
Good, they have it!
Attorney.
What are you getting?
Stay away from my husband.
What?
Do you want me to say it again?
Should I make it louder
for people to hear?
Look, I don't know what Adam told you.
I know your kind.
Using their beauty
to succeed.
Excuse me?
First, my husband.
Then your intern.
Who's next?
My father?
Look at me!
I'm sorry, but I won't stoop down
to your level.
Why not?
-Because I'm your bosss daughter?
-No.
Because you are pregnant.
Who
-How did you--
-Why don't you ask your husband?
He told me.
Hmm?
You are bluffing.
I'll get a devil's food cake, please.
-One slice.
-One slice.
Yes, one slice. Oh, do you want some?
Oh, I guess you wouldn't need it.
You married one.
I'll just be here.
Thanks.
Hi, sir.
I have good news.
I discovered something about
the annulment case of Mr. Galang.
So his--
Alexis, sit down.
Okay.
Did you have a relationship
with the intern, Matthew Caliente?
What?
No, sir.
How about my son-in-law, Adam?
Sir
Did he have an affair with you?
No, sir.
Are you in love with him?
Sir, with all due respect,
there's nothing
There's nothing going on, sir.
I will not fire you,
but I want your resignation
-on my desk immediately.
-Sir, no.
Sir, I know my rights.
Sir, you cannot fire me.
What you did with
that young intern, Caliente,
can be construed as sexual harassment.
Sir, first of all,
I did not do anything with Mr. Caliente.
And I know the law.
Sir, you can't use this against me.
Maybe not now.
Maybe not in two days, not two months.
But in a few years, who knows?
Somebody may file a complaint.
Sir. No one's going
to file a complaint, sir.
Because there was no sexual harassment.
There was no sexual harassment
between me and Matthew.
His parents are very influential.
And they are powerful.
Yes, sir, I understand.
But sir, I am not afraid.
Because I know the truth.
I know the truth.
There is nothing going on
between me and Mr. Caliente.
We all have our truths.
And you know
lawyers can create any version
of the truth they want.
Your shenanigans with this young Caliente
can cost me a client,
can cost me a case,
and even millions of pesos in the future.
Do you have anything to do with this?
Nothing.
There are malicious rumormongers
who made up stories
about me and Math.
It's either you
or your wife.
Maybe you worked together to get me fired.
Alex, you know how much I admire you.
-Oh, f*ck.
-You're competent. You're efficient.
You're an asset here.
Youre a loss to Atticus.
Save the f*cking praises! Enough!
f*ck it.
Even now,
you are still good at gaslighting.
Be grateful.
I choose my battles.
I did not tell a single soul
of what you did to me.
But you know what?
One day, we will cross paths,
and I'll be strong enough.
I'll be f*cking strong enough
to tell everybody.
Tell them what?
You know exactly what you did.
I texted you when I passed my bar exam.
I changed my number when I left Atticus.
New life?
Starting on a clean slate?
Wait.
Do you think I won't know
that you're now a lawyer?
When Atticus hired me,
I thought you were still there.
I was excited.
So why did you leave Atticus?
Let's not talk about it.
Its over.
Its done.
All right.
The important thing
is that you have your own firm now.
And Im up against Atticus now.
When I was fired from Atticus,
I thought that was the end of my career.
As in
I felt like I was a failure.
Why did you leave Atticus?
Sorry, we're not hiring.
You were fired at Atticus?
No, Attorney. I wasn't fired.
I resigned.
I was fired. I didn't leave.
What?
That's stupid.
You're so good.
You know that Guevarra
fired me because of you?
Me?
Well, not exactly you.
Adam and Kate fabricated this story.
They said things to Guevarra.
You won't believe this.
Guevarra fired me
because he thought
I sexually harassed you.
What?
I know.
-I had no idea.
-Yeah.
I'm actually surprised
they never talk about it.
Well, I guess because
Atticus's name will be ruined.
Too bad.
About what?
That you didnt find out about it?
Too bad its not true.
I'd be willing.
Wow.
Oh.
Oh, no.
Bad joke.
-Sorry.
-Terrible.
Terrible joke.
r*pe, abuse, harassment.
No.
You cant joke about this. Bad joke.
And yet,
you are defending someone accused of r*pe.
Okay.
Well, it's unethical
to talk about that outside the court.
I'm sorry. I just
I just got carried away.
To be honest
I'm nervous right now.
Okay.
I know why.
You're scared, right?
Youre scared Ill beat you.
Well.
No.
I'm nervous now because
youre in front of me.
Oh.
Okay.
Well, there's really
nothing to be nervous about.
I mean, we're just two former colleagues.
You know, just catching up.
I know you remember.
-Okay.
-Nice.
-All right.
-Just wait.
-Just a little.
-There you go.
I did it! Oh, my God!
Yeah.
Yeah, I remember.
Clearly.
Oh, no.
You're beautiful.
May I
proceed?
Yes.
Were you intoxicated
when you went to see Madison?
Objection!
Irrelevant.
Your Honor, the question will determine
-if the defendant's reasoning
-It's like they're set to eat each other.
may have been impaired.
Tell me to stop.
Okay.
Stop.
I have to go to work.
Work?
Come work here first.
You can't leave.
Daisy?
Yes, Ms. A.?
Where are you going?
Im going out to do some bank errands.
I need you to take care
of something for me.
-Oh, sure.
-Can you go to this address?
That's the name and that's the address.
-Okay.
-Can you check on his case
and see if he can post bail?
Okay, will do.
Oh. Renante Miranda.
Are you related?
Yes, my father.
Your father?
-Okay.
-Thank you.
-I got you.
-Thank you.
No problem. Im going now.
-Bye.
-Bye.
I'll see you.
Ms. A.?
-Yes?
-Ms. A., we have a big problem.
What is it?
There is a viral post now on the Internet.
I was r*ped by Zachary Chua.
You know him as a sweet, charming guy.
That's exactly what
he wants you to believe
before abusing you.
Here.
This is great for us.
New victim coming out,
we can use that in our case.
The account was just made a few hours ago.
Its obviously a dummy account.
If she cannot identify herself
or cooperate with us,
it's inadmissible.
Then you should look for her.
Madison, we need to talk to your friend.
Your friend, Sharmaine.
What about her?
She went with Madison
to the police station to file the report.
When she becomes our witness,
she can help us win the case.
Where is Sharmaine now?
Actually,
she was the one
who told me to go to Atticus
because the lawyers here are good.
To be honest,
I can't contact her anymore.
She blocked my number,
as well as my social media.
Do you know where she lives?
Where she works?
We can send her a subpoena
to force her to be a witness.
She said she went missing.
How do we send a subpoena?
Let's not waste energy
and time with a hostile witness.
She was with
the victim hours after the r*pe.
If she gives her testimony--
She is a friend of the victim.
So she won't say anything
that's not in our favor.
What we need is
someone not connected to Madison
to say that Zachary r*ped her.
That will strengthen our case
because we will be able
to prove Zachary's character
is that he forces himself on women.
Do we understand
each other, Attorney Caliente?
Attorneys, whoever we talk to,
it's fine with me.
Just to prove that Zach r*ped me.
We will serve
the best possible evidence for your case.
We will set up another meeting
before your trial.
Thank you, Attorney.
This is the first and the last time
you will answer back to me
like that in front of our clients.
Do we understand each other?
Make me.
That's fake news.
Do you know her?
Who is this woman?
He's a monster and a r*pist.
He should be in jail.
-It's obvious that it's a troll account.
-Zach, please.
Look, its a newly created account.
I'm sure Madison is behind this.
-Dont you realize that?
-Have you had a similar experience
with another woman,
the same thing
that happened between you and Madison?
None!
Theres none.
-What do you think of me?
-Please, Zachary Think carefully.
Among all the women you've had sex with
was there a single woman
you forced yourself on to?
Attorney,
are you blind?
Look at me.
I don't need to force or r*pe a woman.
Girls beg me to have sex with them.
There were even times I got r*ped!
Tell her, Joni!
Zach, I need your cooperation.
If this woman
becomes a witness for the opposing party
we're going to have a hard time.
That's why I'm paying you.
Isn't that part of your job?
-Fix it.
-Zach!
-Whats going on, Joni?
-What I'm asking for
-is your cooperation, Zach.
-My God.
We need to work together.
Joni, I told you,
let's just find someone else.
Zach, can you stop, please?
She doesnt know how to do her job.
-Zach!
-That's it! Get out!
-Get out!
-No!
-Yeah, leave!
-Attorney.
No, no, no! He's not cooperating.
-Get out!
-Attorney, Attorney, wait!
Zach, sit down!
I'm sorry, Attorney.
Zach.
Please tell Attorney
everything that happened,
so she can determine how to help you.
Your endorsements
are dropping you one by one.
You are losing followers daily.
Just imagine if this case continues.
Your image depends on this.
So, please cooperate.
Attorney.
Zachary is going to listen now.
Is there something you want to tell us?
Miss Valencia,
on the night of March 30th 2024,
when Mr. Chua has
left the vacation rental,
what did you do?
I called my friend.
What is the name of your friend?
Sharmaine. Sharmaine Antonio.
Im here for you.
-Don't be afraid.
-How may I assist you?
Sir, can we file a r*pe complaint?
Rosario!
She went with me
to the police station to file a complaint.
Okay, anything else?
She also accompanied me
to get a medico-legal report.
So, Miss Valencia, you're telling me that
this Sharmaine Antonio
was with you that night
after the alleged r*pe?
I just said that, didn't I?
Miss Valencia, please answer with respect.
Is Sharmaine Antonio here with us today?
Shes not here.
Miss Valencia,
we've had three court hearings.
Was there ever a time that she came here
to show support?
Objection! Irrelevant.
Sustained.
Miss Valencia, where is Sharmaine Antonio?
I don't know where she is.
When was the last time you spoke to her?
Objection! Irrelevant.
Your Honor, I don't get why
the opposing counsel
is so fixated with this Sharmaine.
Your Honor, Miss Madison Valencia
has stated that Sharmaine Antonio
was the first person she called
after the alleged r*pe.
Miss Madison Valencia
has stated that Sharmaine Antonio
was with her when
she went to the police station
and had her medical examination
after the alleged r*pe.
With these statements, you would assume
that they would have
a very close relationship.
But Your Honor, isn't it questionable
that we have not once
seen Sharmaine Antonio
in any of our court hearings?
Why isn't she here?
Why isn't she here to show support?
Why isn't she on the witness stand
giving her own testimony?
Your Honor, I'll tell you why.
Sharmaine Antonio isn't here
because everything
that Miss Madison Valencia had stated
were lies.
That even her friend
feels disinclined to show support.
Or maybe Sharmaine Antonio
doesn't really exist in the first place.
Maybe she was just some made-up person
just like this made-up r*pe accusation.
Objection!
I am telling the truth!
I was with Sharmaine.
I just don't know what happened,
why she suddenly disappeared.
I don't know where she is.
But she was there the night Zach r*ped me.
Check the CCTV!
Check with the precinct!
Order in the court!
She was there!
Yes, she was there!
Order in the court!
-Attorney Miranda.
-Oh.
Attorney, I'll go ahead.
How can you defend
that man who abused a fellow woman?
Why are you doing this?
Miss Valencia,
even criminals
can hire lawyers to defend them.
So you admit that Zach is a criminal?
I didn't say anything like that.
I took an oath.
I have to defend
the client who sought my help.
Even if he is wrong?
The judge will decide that.
My job
is to defend my client
to the best of my abilities, okay?
Now, if you'll excuse me.
We're not done yet!
Stop!
Madison, please!
Are you okay?
-Ouch!
-What, Attorney?
-Is this just about the money?!
-Calm down!
Where is your integrity?!
Is winning the case
more important to you--
-Stop.
-than upholding the truth?
I want justice, Attorney!
Madison, please.
This won't help the case.
Go home now.
Go home for now.
Are you okay?
-Are you hurt?
-No. I'm fine.
-What about you? Are you okay?
-Okay.
Oh, dear.
Aren't we doing anything against Madison
for what she did?
It's annoying.
News spreads fast.
Videos are all over the Internet.
You know nowadays,
anyone with a cellphone can be a reporter.
But this is the best video.
Ms. A. This is so sweet!
Sir Math is so tender with you.
All right, back to work.
You look good together, Ms. A.
Let's go back to work.
Lester, can you go to the precinct
-where Madison filed a complaint?
-Sure.
Check the CCTV if she really
went with a friend. Got it?
-Copy.
-Marisue, please
look for Sharmaine Antonio.
You are no longer
representing Madison's case.
You're conniving
with the opposing counsel.
Cant two lawyers
from opposing sides be friends?
Alexis used to work at Atticus.
She trained me.
Yes, thats conflict of interest.
Your history with her
might impair your judgment.
Damn it, Adam.
Watch your language, Caliente.
Sir, you saw the video.
What are your thoughts?
I agree with Adam.
You and Attorney Miranda,
you're too comfortable with each other.
Opposing counsels cannot have
a relationship with each other.
Before our client notices
and complains,
you're off the case, Matthew.
Stand by.
What is your message to Madison, Attorney?
Let your bravery
and resilience inspire others
to come forward,
to break the chains of silence,
and to reclaim their lives.
No one,
regardless of their relationship status,
should have to endure such an ordeal.
As a married man with a daughter,
I am doing this
not only for the justice of one woman
but for the countless victims
whose voices have been silenced,
-whose pain has been trivialized,
-f*ck it.
whose lives have changed forever.
You are worse than my client.
Starting today,
I will be representing Madison in court.
I stand by my husband
in this battle.
If you defend a r*pist
you become an enabler.
You are complicit in the crime.
This is a reminder that we should strive
for a culture
-Hello?
-where every woman
Ms. A, we have a report
regarding Sharmaine Antonio.
secured and respected.
Dance properly!
You, Gab!
You should be in the middle, Ali!
And you, Kisses.
Give it your best! Fix your posture.
Is this the way
I taught you to perform?
Grind your hips with sexiness!
How will you get customers
if you dance like that?
Performance level!
Sharmaine, my baby!
Hi. You're so pretty.
Your regular customer is already here
Remember to do your job well.
-Go.
-Leave it to me.
You can do it.
-Dance properly.
-So annoying.
Spin around. Not like that.
Excuse me.
So happy to see you again.
-How are you?
-Im doing well here.
You need something from me,
but you made me
come all the way here instead.
Excuse me, Attorney.
Attorney Miranda.
Yes?
Maybe you miss Atticus
for nostalgia's sake?
Trust me, it's not nostalgia I feel.
Lets proceed
to Attorney Guevarras office?
Okay.
So, what do you think?
No.
Come on, Alexis.
Attorney Lucero,
we will not agree to a settlement.
We will not pay your client.
I will prove that Zachary is innocent.
Even if he is not really innocent?
The judge will decide that.
And besides,
I know of one r*pist
who was not convicted.
And he is even a practicing lawyer.
See you in court,
Attorney?
Sharmaine Antonio?
What do you need?
Do you know me?
You're the lawyer
of Madison's r*pist, right?
Why don't you testify?
You should be happy.
There's no witness against your client.
I'm just wondering.
I already went with Madison to the police.
Maybe that's enough, right?
Are you afraid to speak in court?
Is someone preventing you?
What happened to Madison
also happened to me and my coworkers.
Each night we deal
with abuse and harassment.
But did they hear anything from us?
Did we ever complain?
No.
Because we need to make money.
So we put up with it.
Sharmaine, I don't want
to invalidate your feelings,
even though you and Madison
went through different experiences.
It is definitely different.
That Zach?
He is her boyfriend.
So why would she put him in jail?
If Madison wants attention,
if she wants
to make money out that incident,
it's her choice.
As long as she doesn't drag me into it.
I'm not like her.
I am not that lucky.
You see, I have bills to pay.
I need to pay rent, food,
and my siblings tuition fees.
Criminal Case No. 82539.
For failure of the prosecution
to present sufficient evidence
to prove the guilt
of the accused beyond reasonable doubt,
the accused, Zachary Chua,
is hereby acquitted.
Joni, I'm acquitted!
Attorney, thank you.
-Congratulations, guys!
-I'm free!
Very well done, team.
Attorney, thank you very much
for your help.
I will send the full payment
to your office immediately.
Thank you very much.
Come on, let's take a picture.
Congratulations, guys.
Lets take a picture.
Finally.
All right, stay there.
Hi, Math.
You're here.
Congratulations.
Good job.
Thank you.
Let me carry your bag.
What a day.
So
When are you leaving Atticus?
Effective immediately.
Where are you moving to?
Well, me and my dad are okay now.
Wow, that's good.
Actually, he wants to make me a partner
in Caliente and Frio.
But I said,
I can be a Head Associate first.
-I'm not ready for a higher position yet.
-No.
You can do it.
Look, I saw
how you handled Madison's case.
And you're more than ready.
We still lost.
It's not your fault.
It's all Adam's fault.
Thank you for this.
I'm sorry, Papa.
I was only able to visit today.
Someone came here the other day.
She said you sent her
and was asking for details.
Yes, shes my assistant.
Shes taking care of your bail.
I'm fine here.
It's just a waste of your money.
Papa.
It's just money, Papa.
What's important is for you to be free.
I have committed a crime.
I have to suffer the consequences.
Can we be honest here?
There are many guilty people
who dont get punished.
There are so many people here
who are really innocent.
I know that.
My sentence is almost over.
I will be free soon.
Papa.
The world is not fair.
Alexis,
we all make mistakes.
But it doesn't mean
we are sinners.
All mistakes
can be forgiven
if we honestly accept our mistakes.
That
That is where learning begins.
That learning will make us
become better people.
Madison.
Take a seat.
Thank you.
I ordered coffee for you.
Attorney,
why do you want to talk to me?
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry
I didn't win your case.
But, we can still do something about this.
I'm with another law firm, Madison.
And I want to help you.
We will file a petition
for certiorari in the court of appeals.
What happens when we do this?
If granted by the court,
the decision will be reversed.
Zachary will go to jail.
Madison Valencia?
Yes?
Documents for you.
Who sent these?
Please sign here.
Thank you.
I think this is for you.
Attorney Miranda.
I received some research,
transcripts and recordings
of my case against Zachary.
But until now,
I still don't know who sent them.
Was it you?
What is this?
An atonement for defending a criminal?
He really r*ped me.
But why did you defend him?
Because for Zachary
it wasnt r*pe.
For him,
there was nothing wrong with what he did.
It is what it is, Madison.
The court did not find enough evidence.
Is that why you are helping me
and Attorney Caliente?
I was like you in the past, Madison.
I fell in love.
I was kept hidden.
Adam and Kate are getting married.
I was somebody's secret.
And
he abused me.
Adam!
Enough!
-Stop!
-I loved somebody.
I trusted him, but
he violated me.
No!
No!
So I know how you feel.
I was r*ped.
Did you tell anyone?
That was one of my biggest regrets.
I was scared.
I was embarrassed.
But I realized
why should I be embarrassed?
Wasn't he the one at fault?
Wasn't he the one who did something wrong?
Why should I be embarrassed?
He should be ashamed of himself.
I admire your courage, Madison.
Good for you.
You did what I couldn't do.
So, you didn't get justice?
Legally?
No.
But,
justice is not only obtained in court.
Come in, Sharmaine.
Alexis?
Yes.
-Stop that.
-If not, then what?
I will sue you!
For what?
You did worse to me.
Do you remember
what you did to me that night?
Huh?
You r*ped me.
No one will believe you.
Nobody f*cking gives a sh*t!
All I have to do is show this video.
And then your wife
and your father-in-law
will know the kind of man
that you truly are.
Disbarment. Grossly immoral conduct.
Alexis, please!
I'm sorry!
Alexis.
Don't ruin my life! Don't ruin my career!
I'm sorry for what I did! Please!
sh*t!
No!
The Supreme Court
has unanimously disbarred
lawyer Adam Lucero
over his viral video scandal.
-Thank you.
-Case closed.
You rant that I bring work on trips,
but you are working right now.
So what does that mean?
Well, it means you will drive for me
for a whole year.
If you want, even forever.
Let's go.
