[UPLIFTING INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]
I'm not gonna lie to you Miss Carmona,

this is a felony vandalism.
Cut and dry.
They've got dozens of eye
witnesses and video footage
of you bulldozing through
a university building.
It doesn't matter what anyone saw.
This isn't about that.
Well, the only things

the extraordinary
circumstances under which
you committed the act,

that the judge will admit
that background
on a vandalism case.
Look, they're here.
Creator, in the name of our ancestors,
please give Mr. Luke Watkins

to fight for justice for me and

please don't speak out in court.
Mr. Watkins, your motion?
Your Honor, Miss Carmona
allegedly borrowed
construction equipment that ended up
through the wall
of an unoccupied build site.
Thank God it was unoccupied.
I am moving to admit
the historical context
on which my client, a member
of the Gabrielino-Tongva Tribe,
was acting. Otherwise,
she won't receive a fair trial.
The defendant plowed
through the university's
nearly complete science center
causing extensive damage.
- It is that simple.
- It is not that simple.
The building is on sacred Tongva land.
Land that my client
has been fighting tooth
and nail to protect
since its planning stages.
Your Honor, any probative value
of admitting the sites
history is outweighed
by the prejudice
it would cause in the jury.
It is immaterial to the case.
Allowing it is essentially
setting up a trial
within a trial over what
is a land rights issue.
This is a claim of right issue,
Your Honor.
Oh, come on. It's not like the
defendant's laptop was stolen.
and she stole it back.
This is not a theft
related case, Your Honor.
Mr. Watkins?
It's worse. The defendant's people
have worshipped there
for thousands of years.
A sacred site was stolen.
And, if someone walked
into your backyard
and built a shed, you have
the right to knock it down.
You can't vandalize
something on your own property.

She said the job was too dangerous.
My mom no longer has final say
over my life.
That includes forbidding
tattoos and piercings.
LOLA: Okay, let's resume.
I have given both council's
arguments consideration.
Since the Gabrielino-Tongva
Tribe has long claimed rights
to the land on which
San Vicente University sits,
the court will allow the jury to hear
the property's history
and let them determine
its relevance to the alleged offense.
The defense motion is granted.
I'm paying grand a frickin' year

So... [CLEARS THROAT]
How was that Native American
land case I've been
reading so much about?
Complicated. When it came to seizing
the Native American's land,
there was no due process
and the defense is arguing that it's key
to determining if this was vandalism.
Well, the constitution
does forbid depriving
any person of life, liberty, or property
without due process of law.
So, one could argue allowing
history is necessary in this case.
Judge Carmichael, the Native Americans
had no concept of land ownership.
So, if someone doesn't know
their rights,
it's okay to violate them?

Wait, he's there now?
What's wrong? Why didn't you call me?
Mom, I tried to visit several times.
They wouldn't let me in.
Honey, the assembly, they ruled
that it was a spiritual malady,
and uh, we consulted with Guru Young.
Who's been dead for years.
Would you consult an old VHS?
Yes.
And the only reason that I am here
is because your father's getting worse.
So, I broke him out.
Are they holding you against your will?
No, I used the wrong words.
I'm sorry I'm not as smart as you.
Honey. Honey, you loved
living at the Linden Community.
- No, I didn't.
- SHERRI'S MOM: Yes, you did.
- No, I didn't.
- Yes, you did.
No, I didn't. That's why I left.
- You did.
- Mom, I haven't been there
since I was a kid
because it drives me crazy.
You had a ball. You didn't wear shoes.
Okay. It's all right
if you don't have Nikes
and frothy drinks, but Mom,
there's no medical care.
Think.
You know, things are just...

And, I got her the internship

Amazing.
So she gets to graduate
and the school is thrilled
that she won't be setting foot
on campus again, so win-win.
Speaking of winning,
what do you think
about teaming up again?
I think it's not a bad idea.
