Come to bed.

It's 4:00 AM, and you have to be at work in three hours.

I know. I'm almost finished.

You said that two hours ago.

Five more minutes.

I'm counting.

Enough studying.

Gloria.

Gloria!

Ernesto.

Ernesto!

No!

No-o!

I did my job.

You told me to get us into the penthouse.

Yeah, by following my plan, Parker.

- What? - By getting us all in safely.

Did the elevator decapitate you?

Did it decapitate you?

Actually, from this angle,

It looks pretty close on the decapitation.

A4.

You need to go talk to her.

It's not the first time she's gone loco.

- Parker? - I'm serious.

Parker, I think what everyone's feeling

Is that if you want to take insane risks on your own time,

Then go ahead, but when we're on a job,

You have to consider the rest of us.

- Excuse me. - This isn't for me.

It's addressed to somebody named Alice White.

You are Alice White.

It's one of the aliases I made for you -

Vegetarian, bookkeeper.

She had a pretty wild time at her sister's wedding in Phoenix.

You should check out her facebook page.

Alice White has jury duty.

Damn, I am good.

Yeah, congratulations.

Alice thanks you for getting her out of it.

No. No.

Jury duty - A place where you have to follow instructions.

Where you have to consider other people's point of view.

- There's gonna be normal people there, Nate. - No, no, no.

You're not getting out of this.

Alice White is reporting for jury duty.

Ernesto Vargas was a husband,

A father of two daughters,

A warehouse manager,

And he went to night school.

He needed more energy.

So he bought this.

Fastlife.

It's an "all-natural energy supplement"

That was produced by that man,

William Quint.

We'll show that Fastlife caused Ernesto Vargas' fatal heart attack,

And that Mr. Quint knew the dangers that his product posed

When he put it on the market.

All Ernesto wanted was more time.

And that's the only thing we can't give him.

I hope the rest of this case is this good.

What'd you have for breakfast?

You smell like gravy.

Order.

Mr. Louis, are you ready to make your opening statement?

Yes, your honor.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Do it just like we rehearsed, Henry.

It's been tailor-made for this jury.

We all want to believe that future tragedies can be prevented

If we hold someone, anyone accountable.

Maintain eye contact.

You're losing juror number 4.

But common sense will tell you

That not all tragedies can be prevented.

And when you rush to judgment...

lives are ruined,

And an honest businessman can have his life's work destroyed.

Who is she?

What is she looking at?

Alice White - Bookkeeper.

She's been zoning in and out all morning. Could be confused.

Nothing's more dangerous than the confused

When they think they know something.

So, my video wall plus Directv NFL sunday ticket in HD.

- Incredible. - What do you think?

- Great. - Right.

- Yeah. - Right?

I think it's funny.

You know, it reminds me a bit of rugby,

Except - Well, you Americans,

You wear the helmets and the pads and everything

So you don't get hurt.

- Oh, you didn't. - What?

Parker, how is juror number 6 today?

- Good. Okay, here it is. - Fumble!

I think there's something dirty going on with this trial

And the woman who lost her husband's gonna get hurt even worse,

And that we should, um, you know, get involved.

Involved? What - What do you -

No, no, no. No, no, no. You don't understand.

They had hidden cameras,

And the lawyers had comMs.like our comMs.

First, move.

Second,

Nobody has our comMs.

Parker, listen, there is not some evil conspiracy

Lurking behind the curtain of every routine civic activity.

I make our comMs. Me. I make 'em.

Ain't nobody got our comMs.

Now, what's happening is, you're on a boring jury trial.

Okay? Now, could you...

Parker! Just...

You know, she's never done that before.

What, stormed out? Come on.

No.

Asked for our help.

What?

Listen, there is a reason we put her in a jury trial.

You know, man, when I was a -

When I was a kid, I was like 8 years old,

I had a foster mom who was jehovah's witness.

She used to dress me up in a suit and a bow tie

And take me door-to-door to spread the word.

Black neighborhoods, white neighborhoods - didn't matter.

I would kick, I'd scream, or whatever,

But she would say

"Alec, you need to learn how to talk to people. "

See, everything I learned about people,

I learned ringing doorbells and - and -

And being in a bow tie.

Parker never had that.

I mean, jumping from a skyscraper, she's cool.

But making small talk?

That's - It's like pure terror.

Just cut her some slack.

How about them cowboys?

What'd I miss?

Nothing.

All right. Uh, Eliot,

Gonna need you to go with Parker to check something out.

All right.

- Yeah. - Now.

- Right now? - Yeah, right now. Yeah.

- Like, now? - Yeah.

Just go get Parker.

Thanks for the beer.

Tell you what, this is not happenin', bubba.

You ain't takin' my beer.

I'm outside.

You're late.

Hey, I just spent eight hours sitting in a plastic chair

While some ambulance chaser called me a killer.

I paid for that chair.

You don't like it, go home and suck back some incense.

Always a pleasure, Ms. Earnshaw.

Who's Earnshaw?

Hardison?

I'm on it.

Think maybe I should settle this case and be done with it.

It's not up to you anymore.

You want to buy my company,

Buy it.

You don't, don't.

But it's my toches that's on the line here -

The only thing you have on the line

Is your penny-ante granola company.

I could lose everything.

Winning is the only option.

You go behind my back

And try to settle this case,

I will bury you.

Are we clear?

That kind of jury profiling costs a fortune.

At the trial, they said Quint's company was tiny.

Now we see...

what they see.

Damn.

They hacked the courtroom's security feed

And planted their own cameras.

That's what I would've done.

They got there first.

All right. We have a new client.

Apparently, there is an evil conspiracy lurking

Behind the curtain of every routine

Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

Gloria Vargas is suing William Quint

Over the wrongful death of her husband.

Now, it should be a simple,

Low-stakes wrongful death suit.

But Quint has help.

Toby Earnshaw,

Of Earnshaw pharmaceuticals.

Father founded the company, and he's still C.E.O.

Why does a drug heiress care about a lawsuit

Against a tiny supplements company?

'Cause without telling daddy or the executive board,

Earnshaw sank $20 million into R&D for Fastlife

In anticipation of buying the company.
