Please.

Please.

Please, no.

You don't want to do this.

You don't want to do this.

You're not a killer.

Ian. Ian, Ian...

Really? He said "flight risk"?

The man is not a flight risk

because he is innocent, okay?

Innocent men do not run.

Daddy, I'm hungry.

Okay, sweetheart.

Really?

No.

I disagree. And you know what?

I think Judge Ogden

would disagree as well.

Why?

Because I took the man

to Pebble Beach to golf

and you know

what you did, Carl?

You dated his

wife in law school.

For breakfast?

Shh!

Don't tell your mother.

All right.

Go for it.

Yeah. I gotta go.

See you.

Shit.

Mommy's here.

Hmm?

I gotta take

this away from you.

Daddy, I'm not done!

I know, I know, but, you know,

you can't be having

birthday cake all the time

because Mommy

doesn't want you to.

And you know what?

Just remember one thing.

Mommy ruins everything.

Hold on!

Hi.

Hi.

It's not even 7:30 yet.

I have early clients, so...

Yeah.

Your pear tree's dying.

It's a quince tree.

You want to come in?

You've been decorating?

Yeah.

How was she?

She's good.

Hi.

Hello.

Mmm! Hi, sweet pea.

What have you

got on your hands?

Nothing.

You have it on your face.

Birthday cake.

She had birthday

cake for breakfast.

Did she have anything else?

Not this morning, no.

Well, do you

have anything else?

I haven't gone

shopping yet, Laura.

Okay. All right, El,

we'll get you something

on the way, okay?

Mommy,

Daddy said "Shit."

Did he? Okay,

why don't you

get your bag?

Look, I...

Trial separation usually

means "Make an effort."

I thought it meant

"Here's your balls back.

Thanks for the loan."

Yeah, that's nice.

Yeah.

No, in front of our daughter.

That's really nice.

She doesn't even know

what I'm talking about.

Come on. Let's go.

Bye, Daddy.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

No hugs? No kisses?

No "Thank you for

the Chinese food"?

And the awesome movies?

I love you.

Love you, too.

Okay, have a good

day at school, okay?

Bye.

Bye, babe.

Come on.

Don't forget about soccer.

Mmm-hmm.

6:30.

Yeah, 6:30, I know.

Let's go.

Bye.

Bye, babe.

Let's go, let's go.

Come on.

Finally.

What does she want now?

Jesus, come on.

Damn it. Damn it!

Okay. I just...

Excuse me.

How much longer

is this gonna take?

He's just gonna

have to wait. Okay.

I'll be there

when I'm there. Bye.

Mr. Mitchell.

Yeah.

Can we chat

for a second?

Sure.

Have a seat.

You have no idea

where this came from.

No. No.

Like I said, my doorbell rang,

I went to answer it,

nobody was there but

this was sitting there.

And the next thing I know,

it's like goddamn Fallujah.

At first I thought

maybe it was a former client.

Someone who

wasn't happy with me.

I'm a criminal

defense attorney.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Not just white collar,

but street crooks, too.

Sometimes

the verdicts don't work out,

they'll come

knocking on my door.

But you don't know

who Daniel Easton is?

No.

Never seen him before?

No. Never.

He's a dentist.

Has a private practice

in a medical center downtown.

14301 South Figueroa.

Okay.

Okay.

And you don't know

who this belongs to?

No, I don't.

It's a Beretta 9mm, 92A.

It has no serial number.

No identifying marks.

Okay.

Wow!

Barrel's been smoothed out

so any ballistics

report will be corrupted.

Could you just not

point that at me, please?

Thank you.

I'm not joking.

That's... You work these...

I'm playing.

Okay.

I'm just playing.

We're done here.

Uh...

Don't you need

that for evidence?

Excuse me, I...

In case you need to reach me.

Hey, that isn't even mine!

Oh!

Yeah.

Are you close?

Yeah, I'm downstairs. Why?
