The Rainmaker

- Previously on "The Rainmaker."

- This is Rudy Baylor. He's the best in our class.

Mrs. Black's son was admitted to North City General.

Sadly, he passed.

They killed him.

Stop it, both of you!

I need you to move out.

- All men are equal under the law.

Who believes that? You. - Are you okay?

- You're bold enough to come late to your first meeting.

Fired?

What were you thinking

arguing with Leo Drummond on your first day?

- Called every reputable firm in town ain't nobody's hiring.

- How about a not-so-reputable one?

Jocelyn Stone.

Bruiser to my friends.

- I see you met Deck Shifflet. - How you doing?

- Is she on my account? - She's not even a lawyer yet.

Yeah, she's on your account.

You got to be kidding me.

- That's the guy we saw at the hospital.

- You are Melvin Pritcher, right?

I heard about the fire.

Mama, wake up!

I'm going to get help!

- I need a client, you need a lawyer,

and neither of us has much love for Tinley Britt.

- What happens when Leo finds out that my boyfriend

is suing his prized client?

So it is about you.

- Why can't it be about the both of us?

I never forget a face.

That's too bad.

Hey, Mama.

I'm going to find out...

Who did this to you.

Whoops.

Don't get that on my seat.

Told you to get more napkins.

I'm saving the planet.

You're a mess.

You're just jealous

because this Cubano and I

are having a spiritual moment in my mouth.

Which he's ruining with that.

He's going in. Come on.

Bup, bup, bup, bup, bup, bup!

What?

Disguises.

No.

Take a seat anywhere.

Uh, cataracts.

Oh, yeah. - All right.

Bingo.

- Do you like strawberry rhubarb?

- I'm Deandre, your pretrial services officer.

You're not what I expected.

- You're exactly what I expected.

Current employer.

I got laid off.

By?

North City Hospital.

Occupation.

Nurse.

Home address.

Someone burned my home down.

They killed my mother.

Looks like you did.

No, I did not.

Right, you're innocent.

I...

Am innocent.

- Do that again, see how that works for you.

Current established residence.

The Barrow Motel on Willow.

OK.

What can I get for you, gentlemen?

The, uh, the pie looks good.

OK.

"Never say no to pie."

Marcus Aurelius.

No, we'll get two pies.

He's buying.

Boss.

Pritcher told his probie

he was staying at a place called the Barrow.

- We followed him to a spot called the Wambaw.

Oh. Did you talk to him?

- I wanted to, but-- - Junior here wanted to.

But I said we should float a pass to you first.

Good call.

I'll talk to Nunley.

- We've got the motion to dismiss coming up,

and there is no law that says that we can't talk to this guy.

I mean, at the very least, he's a witness.

- To what? - I don't know.

That's why we have to talk to him.

I agree, Boss.

- Well, I've known Nunley a long time.

There's a code.

It's called professional courtesy.

Is that what they call it?

- What about our other missing nurse?

- Jackie Lemancyzk. I just got an address on her.

Good. Go there.

I think Pritcher is

probably-- - Go talk to her.

And I'll talk to Nunley.

Is that in any way unclear?

No.

- I cannot believe I let you talk me into this.

- If we lose him now, we lose him forever.

You know I'm right.

- I know. That's what I hate about it.

- It's those lawyers from J. Lyman Stone.

How'd they find him?

Hear anything?

Knock again. One more time?

No. Check over here.

Hold on.

What's he doing?

Can't see anything.

The hell's that?

- Are you looking at me or are you keeping an eye out?

We had a plan.

Breaking and entering is not part of the plan.

I'm not breaking anything.

That's why I got this thing.

- You know that's not what that means.

It's open. - Oh, my God.

Get in here.

No.

Yeah, close the door.

We can't be in here.

- Rudy, your client's nurse burned his mother alive.

He lied about his whereabouts to the court.

Aren't you, like, the least bit what-the-hell with this guy?

Of course I am.

If we're caught right now, I'm never going to pass the bar.

Well, that's not so bad.

Look at me.

Look who finally came home.

- What does the bear do when he finds Goldilocks in his room?

This should be entertaining.

How disgusting.

You got something?

- No, his toiletry kit is just disgusting.

- I don't even want to know what that is.

- That looks like a baby's elbow.

- Can we-- can we get out of here, please?

What's this?

776 Magpie Drive.

That's that other nurse's place, Jackie Lemancyzk.

Why would Pritcher have it? - I don't know.

Maybe they're friends?

Whoa!

- Holy shit. Did that just happen?

Honey, I need you to...

Who is that?

What are you doing here?

Lawyers?

What are you doing here?

Hey, is everyone OK in there?

Oh, my God, my truck!

Did you see what happened?

No, no, no, no, out back, out back.

We can't explain what we're doing here.

Come on.

- Take the car. I'll cross over to Maple.

What about the other two?

We have our assignment.

Hey, come on.

- They went south down the alley.

Go around the block and cut 'em off.

Status.

I'm coming down Maple now.

I don't have the subject.

He didn't just disappear.

Hello? Acknowledge.

Acknowledge.

Ethan, are you there?

Ethan, report.

It's OK.

It's OK.

It's OK.

I'm a nurse.

OK...

OK.

- I don't even know what to say.

- Yeah, well, it wasn't my idea to break into his room.

Wow.

I don't care.

Listen to me.

Dot Black has a lawyer

not named Rudy Baylor and not named Deck Shifflet.

I represent Dot and you represent me.

That means you don't freelance, not ever.

If I say no, it's no.

Yes, absolutely.
