Plan B

Then we have a deal? - Yes.

If you hire an attorney dedicated only to our dossier,

someone we approve.

- Well, we need a top lawyer to seal the deal with Keas, right?

- Yes. - Well, I found her.

Miranda Delano.

- It's a pleasure to meet you. - Yeah, finally.

- Ms. Delano, hi. - Yes.

- I see you've met our firm's paralegal, Evelyn.

- Out of all the lawyers in Montreal...

She meant nothing to me, Ev.

You are gonna be the mother of my child.

- We don't know about that yet.

What are you doing? Bro?

- My brother Andy here is an alcoholic.

If you could all please not give him a drink after work,

that would be great.

Let's start a family.

Yes.

Yes?

I cheated on you, Phil.

Phil, it meant nothing!

I needed to be honest with you.

I'm telling you this because I want

to spend my life with you, Phil!

Phil, I love you!

So, the house turns you on?

- Ah! Yeah, I guess we had to give it a test drive.

Do you see us here?

It has everything.

- It's more than we wanted to spend.

We'll take out a loan.

It needs a lot of work.

Then we'll renovate.

Look at this place, Ev.

This is where we're gonna raise our family.

It's our home. It's perfect.

- (Real estate agent): Sorry, traffic was a mess!

Well, what do you think of the place?

It's perfect!

- (Protestors): No mine, no Keas!

No mine, no Keas! No mine, no Keas!

No mine, no Keas!

No mine, no Keas! No mine, no Keas!

(Man): Yeah!

- And now we'll hear from the representatives of Keas.

Thank you.

We appreciate your concern.

We just want to assure you that the Keas mining project

will have positive socio-economic impacts on the...

- Do you feel guilty? - For what?

It was all perfectly legal.

If it wasn't us,

somebody else would have done the job.

- ...not only the potential impact on the ground water,

but also to ensure total control of toxic runoff,

radiation, airborne particles and tailing ponds.

Phil!

Wait!

What will it take for you to forgive me?

Phil?

Please, talk to me.

Phil!

- All right, you want to talk?

Fine. Who was it?

That's not important.

- Yes, it is, to me. Who is it?

It's a lawyer.

A lawyer?

Someone I know? - No.

Who? Tell me a name.

- This didn't happen out of nowhere.

We were barely talking to each other.

When?

- You remember Pat's client, Blackburn?

The guy who was upset about his divorce?

We tried to reason with him, but he wouldn't sign the papers.

He was angry. And he had been drinking.

On his way home...

(Brakes screeching, woman grunting)

...he hit a pedestrian.

He fled. She died.

I was deposed by his defence lawyer.

Terrence asked me to make a statement

about Blackburn's mental state.

Terrence?

- Terrence Walker from Bernstein and Lozinski.

How could you do this?

Phil, please!

Please.

I was upset.

And you shut me out.

- Mmm. - He listened.

Oh, yeah, I'm sure he did.

- He made me realize that I don't want to do this.

Becoming a paralegal is an excuse...

because I'm too scared to give music a real shot.

I'm miserable.

- So, sex is the cost of therapy these days?

Cheap.

How many times?

- Stop. - How many times?

Two, three times.

Where?

His place, his car.

Classy.

- You were so busy chasing Miranda Delano.

You never would have come clean

if I hadn't found your messages.

- If you had presented that evidence,

you would have won.

- Maybe, but playing a game of "What if"...

that can be dangerous.

- I don't know. Or it could be fun.

OK.

I'll play. - OK.

What if...

I hadn't taken this case?

And what if I hadn't met you?

And what if...

I didn't think about you all the time?

And what if I...

You're right.

This is a...

this is a dangerous game.

If anything ever changes...

you know where to find me.

I didn't go.

But you wanted to.

I was invisible.

You didn't care if I had cancer or not.

What? When?

Phil, can you come here?

I feel a lump.

You're not dying.

- Breast cancer runs in my family.

My aunt had it.

The chemotherapy alone was terr--

Evelyn...

this is the biggest trial of my career.

Please.

If you're so worried, go to a doctor, get it checked.

I'm sure it's nothing.

Yeah, but, Evelyn,

you didn't have cancer.

- Would you have stuck around if I did?

- Of course I would. I'm not a monster!

That's not reassuring.

- Oh, Evelyn, you know what? You always do this.

You get so insecure that you think that you're sick,

and then it becomes my fault.

- Yeah, because every time I need you most,

you don't seem to care!

- No, you don't get to do that!

You did this.

You did this. You made this choice.

You cheated. - Phil...

- You--you think I'm the one that doesn't care?

Everything I do, everything I do,

the--the firm, the house, that money pit,

it's all for you.

And I...

- We can-- we can get past this.

Phil, I love you.

I love you.

I love you so much.

Wait.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!

When did you sleep with him?

- Stop it-- - When?

About three months ago.

This is his baby.

- No, it's not. - How can you be sure?

We've always been careful.

Phil...

- Wow, you really killed it with your presentation today.

Thanks for lunch.

Now how about I treat you to dessert?

Yeah, I--I--I don't--

I don't think it's our best move.

Move?

- Well, this, us, it's a-- it's a conflict of interest.

Don't you think it'd be wiser to end it

before we get too deep?

Oh, really?

- Well, if anyone ever found out,

my firm would lose the Keas contract...

...and you'd lose your job.

You're so good at it,

I wouldn't want to jeopardize your future, you know?

Wow. Wow.

Hey, it's Andy.

I'm not available or I'm avoiding you.

Leave a message.

Andy, hey.

Look...

we're worried, OK?
