00:15:39Papa, tu dois m'aider !
00:15:44Audrey, tu et Claire ne connaîtes pas l'autre avant, tu ?
00:15:47Non.
00:15:48Nous n'avons jamais rencontré avant l'interview.
00:15:51Papa, pourquoi tu te demande ?
00:15:52Je pense qu'il y a quelque chose de ce qui est off.
00:15:55Pourquoi elle vient de te chercher pour ne raison ?
00:15:58Et c'est quelque chose qu'elle dit avant.
00:16:01Je veux juste une chose.
00:16:03Justice.
00:16:04Elle semble tellement...
00:16:06...familier.
00:16:10Elle me ressemble à quelqu'un.
00:16:13Hold on, juste un moment !
00:16:15Tu connais-la ?
00:16:16Théodore, tu as quelque chose avec elle, tu ne sais pas ?
00:16:18Don't be absurde !
00:16:20Tu es un artistien mondial !
00:16:21Pourquoi wastez votre concern sur une petite fille ?
00:16:25Tu es above ça !
00:16:28Papa, peut-être qu'elle vous a favor que vous n'avez pas repaid, ou quelque chose ?
00:16:33Personne comme ça n'a pas besoin d'être sur le campus.
00:16:36Fine.
00:16:36Je vais vous donner un ring.
00:16:38Besides, je suis sûre que l'école va reconstruire sa position à mon request.
00:16:42Merci, Grandpa.
00:16:44Elle est encore plus facilement, si vous me demandez.
00:16:46En toute ma vie, personne n'a jamais disrespected me comme elle.
00:16:50Maman a un plan qui va vous faire sentir beaucoup mieux.
00:16:53Quoi plan ?
00:16:54Elle semble qu'elle va faire des choses difficiles pour vous, non ?
00:16:57Alors, faire un live stream, et dire le monde tout le monde de la grande lawyer-bully
00:17:00qui va prendre des étudiants.
00:17:02Maman va vous aider avec ce qu'il faut dire.
00:17:04C'est juste qu'il y a la caméra.
00:17:07Oh, Maman !
00:17:13Maman !
00:17:15Maman !
00:17:17Maman !
00:17:25Maman !
00:17:28C'est quoi ?
00:17:38Maman !
00:17:40Maman !
00:17:51Maman !
00:17:55.
00:17:57Au devoir.
00:17:58Donc, je dois exposer la vérité,
00:17:59et faire tout le monde voir tout ce qu'ils sont derrière tout ce glit et glamour.
00:18:10Claire, vous n'avez pas besoin d'aller à l'école aujourd'hui.
00:18:12En fait, nous n'aurons pas besoin de vos services.
00:18:15Quite frankly, je suis appallée à la révélation.
00:18:17Au revoir.
00:18:20Claire Sire, le former Chamber's partner,
00:18:22a été bullying et threatening me
00:18:24depuis qu'elle a été fait pour Malplaxtus.
00:18:25C'est des gens comme elle qui stand dans la voie de la vérité.
00:18:28Pour la sake de tous les étudiants,
00:18:29j'espère que l'Université Colombo va lancer un thorough investigation.
00:18:31Of course, c'est leur fait.
00:18:33Je ne devrais pas être surprisant à ce qu'ils vont se battre.
00:18:36Oh, hi Claire, tu vois ?
00:18:38Ma live-stream hit plus de 100 000 views déjà.
00:18:41Tout le monde sait ce type de personne que vous êtes maintenant.
00:18:43Il semble que vous n'êtes pas welcome sur campus.
00:18:45Vous croyez que vous pouvez aller contre moi ?
00:18:49Audrey, vous étiez la loi.
00:18:50Ne me direz que vous ne savez pas que spreading false rumors,
00:18:54slander et inciting online harassment
00:18:55sont tous illégal.
00:18:57Défamation de character est toujours un crime dans cette ville.
00:19:00Claire, je suis trop peur, s'il vous plaît.
00:19:02Je ne suis pas dans l'école de l'éducation
00:19:04pour apprendre à l'éducation de l'éducation.
00:19:06Je suis ici parce que c'est bon sur papier.
00:19:08People like you are so naive.
00:19:10Caring about justice and the law, it's cute.
00:19:12But it doesn't take you anywhere.
00:19:14You're a hopeless place.
00:19:17I've always gotten what I wanted, Claire,
00:19:19and I destroy those who try and get it my way.
00:19:22I'm not done with you yet.
00:19:24Funny you should say that.
00:19:25I'm not done with you yet either.
00:19:32It's infuriating.
00:19:32That stupid woman just won't break.
00:19:34Her reputation is ruined.
00:19:35She still has the nerve to challenge me.
00:19:36Honey, don't get upset.
00:19:38Grandma will think of something.
00:19:39Some people only learn the hard way.
00:19:41We'll strike while the iron's hot
00:19:42and hold a press conference.
00:19:43We'll hit her so hard that she has nothing left to get back on.
00:19:45A press conference?
00:19:46Yeah, that's a great idea.
00:19:47You'll do no such thing!
00:19:49Why not, Grandpa?
00:19:51Public opinion is on your side right now,
00:19:53but it's more complicated than that.
00:19:55Claire.
00:19:56See?
00:19:57I knew it, you old bastard.
00:19:59Clearly that little slit has a hold on you.
00:20:03Absolutely outrageous.
00:20:04I'm just saying it's not that simple.
00:20:06She's nothing but a bloody backwater bedhopper.
00:20:09You're the damn legal giant of the city!
00:20:11Get a grip!
00:20:12What the hell are you so afraid of?
00:20:13Exactly, Grandpa.
00:20:14I looked into her.
00:20:15She's just some small town hick.
00:20:17Nobody would bat an eye if she dropped out tomorrow.
00:20:20Theodore, look.
00:20:20When Audrey's parents died,
00:20:22we vowed to protect her at all costs.
00:20:24How can we just sit back and watch how this lowlife
00:20:27bullies our precious granddaughter?
00:20:30Maybe I'm overthinking it.
00:20:32Let's do the press conference.
00:20:33I'll make a few calls.
00:20:37I want to thank everyone for coming here today.
00:20:40As you're all well aware,
00:20:42my granddaughter Audrey recently fell victim
00:20:44to harassment at the hands of Claire Sawyer.
00:20:49Claire, look.
00:20:50They're holding a press conference.
00:20:51Sparked by her immediate dismissal,
00:20:53Ms. Sawyer has been targeting my granddaughter
00:20:54with acts of defamation and verbal abuse.
00:20:56Taking a toll on Audrey's mental and physical health,
00:20:59we've had no choice but to speak up.
00:21:01We only have one granddaughter.
00:21:02Watching her suffer this kind of injustice breaks my heart.
00:21:05Wow.
00:21:06What a piece of work.
00:21:08Can you imagine the hypocrisy?
00:21:10Slander!
00:21:11They're dragging your name through the mud!
00:21:13It's fine, Mom.
00:21:14I should actually thank them.
00:21:17Thank them?
00:21:20With all the evidence I've gathered,
00:21:22I've been waiting for a chance to make it public.
00:21:24And they've just provided me with the perfect platform.
00:21:30Hey, Lena.
00:21:31Gather everyone and meet me at the press conference.
00:21:34Using the media to twist the narrative?
00:21:36Fine.
00:21:37Let's see who gets torn to pieces by public opinion.
00:21:42I've always loved the law,
00:21:43and I have worked so hard to earn my chance to make a difference.
00:21:46I applied to chambers
00:21:48because I believed in what they stood for.
00:21:51I don't know what I ever did to offend Ms. Claire.
00:21:55To not be hired with such a resume definitely seems like a vendetta.
00:21:58Sounds to me like Claire's just jealous.
00:22:01A small-town girl being intimidated.
00:22:03If she could do so much harm to a well-established family like ours,
00:22:06how much more could she do to less fortunate students?
00:22:10Innocent, naive people with nobody to turn to.
00:22:19Let's give Adgerly a moment.
00:22:21It's all understandably overwhelming.
00:22:26I came from humble beginnings myself.
00:22:29I know better than anyone how hard this road is.
00:22:33But I never imagined that in such a sacred profession as law,
00:22:36someone would show such blatant disregard for justice.
00:22:40Today, I'm not just speaking for my granddaughter.
00:22:44I'm speaking for countless students
00:22:46who deserve a fair and unencumbered chance.
00:22:51I feel at fault for this.
00:22:52Our Audrey is such a pure soul.
00:22:55So we've tried to shield her from the world.
00:22:57But as a result,
00:22:58we've not properly prepared her for the dangers she would face.
00:23:03Mrs. Claire would openly favor male candidates when interviewing,
00:23:07even if the female candidates were more qualified.
00:23:10One has to wonder whether she is afraid of being outshound by another woman.
00:23:16But my grandfather has always told me that the law doesn't discriminate.
00:23:19Her utter disregard for fairness and equality is an insult to how far higher education has come.
00:23:24I'm standing here today not for me, but for every young lady dreaming of a career in law.
00:23:28Asking no pleading, Miss Claire, to see the error in her ways.
00:23:39Audrey, that was beautiful.
00:23:41You say you represent all prospective female lawyers,
00:23:44but I have to wonder where your concern for them was
00:23:47when you were stealing their academic work.
00:23:52Haven't you harassed me enough?
00:23:54What more do you want?
00:23:55Audrey, since you are such a brilliant, accomplished candidate, do tell us.
00:23:59When writing those incredible journal articles,
00:24:01where did the arguments and case examples come from?
00:24:04Which books?
00:24:05Which precedents?
00:24:06I'm not going to validate your accusations by responding to them.
00:24:10Can't remember?
00:24:11No problem.
00:24:12I'll refresh your memory.
00:24:14Freshman year, you bought your first academic paper off a broke student.
00:24:17Sophomore year, the second.
00:24:19Junior year, another.
00:24:21Those papers were all written by impoverished students,
00:24:24whom I've been tutoring for free over the years,
00:24:26yet you wrote your own name on each one.
00:24:28You're lying!
00:24:30If that were true, why has nobody ever accused me all these years?
00:24:33This is slander!
00:24:35When your grandfather is Theodore Hale,
00:24:37which scholarship student is going to dare speak up?
00:24:41Without any proof, you're just spitting out empty attacks on my family.
00:24:44Anyone with half a brain can read if they knew where to look.
00:24:47These are the original files for those papers.
00:24:50Every single one has a full revision trail.
00:24:54And the path from first draft to final version is crystal clear.
00:24:57The author names are right there in black and white.
00:25:01Not a single one, says Audrey.
00:25:03You...
00:25:04All this evidence is fabricated!
00:25:06You were fired for a reason!
00:25:08You have zero credibility!
00:25:11Perhaps evidence can be forged.
00:25:16But the pain you put these victims through cannot be faked.
00:25:23They...
00:25:24All came?
00:25:27Audrey started stealing our work as a freshman.
00:25:30Because of who she is, we never dared to say a word,
00:25:32even though we knew how much she was taking from us.
00:25:35Back when I was a sophomore, she stuffed my manuscript into her own bag.
00:25:39I tried going to department administration about it,
00:25:42but the counselor pulled me aside and told me not to ruin the unity among classmates.
00:25:46It's true, she is my roommate.
00:25:50Mr. Hale personally made a phone call to bury it.
00:25:52My roommate almost got forced out of school in the end,
00:25:55and even graduating became a struggle.
00:25:58I spent three months writing my paper, and she took it.
00:26:01Nobody would hear my plea because the school didn't want to anger Mr. Hale.
00:26:04I've got every single chat log on my phone.
00:26:06Not only did she force me to write papers for her, she also treated me like a servant.
00:26:09If I tried resisting, she'd threaten to use her influence to keep me from graduating.
00:26:17Grandpa, what do we do?
00:26:20Shut down every single live stream right now!
00:26:25So, she's nothing but a nap-o baby?
00:26:27And she had the nerve to play the victim with us?
00:26:30Disgusting.
00:26:31I say we dig into the whole family.
00:26:33There must be generational skeletons in those lofty closets!
00:26:37It's no use scrambling now the cats out of the bag.
00:26:40This time tomorrow, you'll be on every front page and party to an education department investigation.
00:26:46You think you're so great, huh?
00:26:48Think you have me beaked, do you?
00:26:51What are you doing? Let me go!
00:26:54You're suspected of academic fraud and character defamation.
00:26:57We're bringing you to the station for questioning.
00:26:59What can that woman possibly do for you?
00:27:01I was going to take you places!
00:27:05They are completely capable of being successful all on their own.
00:27:09Who the hell do you think you are?
00:27:11Trampling on their dignity and stealing the fruits of their labor?
00:27:18Claire, if anything, Audrey was doing them a favor.
00:27:21With their small-town, low-income backgrounds, they never stood a chance on the real world.
00:27:26Audrey, on the other hand, was always meant for greatness.
00:27:28Those papers serve her resume much better than those unfortunate students.
00:27:32Serves her resume?
00:27:34Your family sure likes to act all distinguished.
00:27:37When in reality, you and Theodore came from a small town, too.
00:27:41Didn't you?
00:27:43That face...
00:27:44I hadn't noticed before how familiar she looked.
00:27:50Claire, stop acting like some savior.
00:27:52You can't save any of them.
00:27:55Since you're all so brave in coming forward together, you may also lose out on graduating together as well.
00:28:03Have you no shame?
00:28:07Shame is for the weak.
00:28:09People like us don't concern ourselves with such sentiments.
00:28:13You truly believe you can hold the world in the palm of your hand?
00:28:19Don't let them scare you.
00:28:20For as long as I am here, I will make sure the truth is revealed.
00:28:25Professor, we're not scared.
00:28:27We believe in you.
00:28:28We believe in you!
00:28:31Girl, wake up and face reality.
00:28:33You're nothing but a stupid bunch of misfits taking on an army.
00:28:36I'd take my stupidity over groveling at the feet of a Ford any day.
00:28:40Intimidating people into silence doesn't actually change the truth, nor can it stop justice.
00:28:45That stubborn look, just like the one she used to have.
00:28:51It's her.
00:28:53She's back.
00:28:58In law, it's not just about skill truth, it's about connections and support.
00:29:03Plain and simple, being a lawyer is a business.
00:29:07If you back off now, this money is all yours.
00:29:10I will make sure you are reinstated.
00:29:12Hell, I'll even make you a senior partner.
00:29:14I'll make sure that every noteworthy case comes straight to you.
00:29:17Professor Hale, does it look like I am short on money to you?
00:29:21And what about these students, Mrs. Sayre?
00:29:24Abandon this silly mission and I will see to it that they all get into graduate school fully paid for.
00:29:30Don't you want their futures to be a whole lot brighter?
00:29:44Well, aren't you generous?
00:29:47That's just how I am.
00:29:48Just how you are, hey?
00:29:50I know how you are.
00:29:51If I accept this offer, I'll be your puppet for the rest of my career, with Audrey right there tugging
00:29:56at my strings.
00:29:58Watch yourself, girl!
00:29:59Professor Hale, save the act for somebody else.
00:30:03The second even any student accepts your generosity, pleasuring turns into an occupation, and they will spend the rest of
00:30:10their lives under your thym.
00:30:13So thank you for your kind offers, but we won't be accepting them.
00:30:18They always take the deal.
00:30:20How stubborn is this bitch?
00:30:23If you don't want money or power nor status or guarantees, what do you want?
00:30:33Grandpa, I'm telling you, she's just putting on an act.
00:30:41Let me guess, you want to replace me?
00:30:45That'll be the day.
00:30:47Grandpa long appointed me as his successor.
00:30:51How large your heads have become to think that the only desirable position to strive for is your own.
00:30:59Quit the act.
00:31:01Ever since you interviewed Audrey, you've been gunning for her.
00:31:04You expect me to believe it wasn't to get to me?
00:31:11I want nothing less than to be like you.
00:31:15What then, child? What else could you possibly want?
00:31:19I already told you.
00:31:21Claire.
00:31:23Remember your grandfather, Theodore Hale.
00:31:27Grandma, I won't forget.
00:31:34All I want is justice.
00:31:37I want to live in a world where the law dictates the outcome, not money or influence.
00:31:46Professor Hale, until you are offering that, I am not interested.
00:31:51Girl, I'll give you this. You've got Gammishin, but that Naid will be the end of you.
00:31:55Watch and learn.
00:31:57The press conference is over.
00:32:04You tyrant!
00:32:08Oh, Claire, it must have been exhausting to do all that investigating. Too bad.
00:32:14As long as my grandfather is around, none of it will see the light of day.
00:32:21You all saw what just happened. You saw the true face of this family.
00:32:26Will you just turn a blind eye?
00:32:29You're journalists. You're supposed to seek the truth above all ethics.
00:32:33The pen in your hand is supposed to break apart the very arrogance that is now trying to force you
00:32:36into silence.
00:32:37If you obey them, you are not journalists. No, that requires integrity.
00:32:41Instead, you are nothing more than the dogs of the wealthy.
00:32:44Claire, haven't you learned anything by now?
00:32:47Who brought every single one of them here today?
00:32:50My ties and their agencies run so deep that they are impossible to untangle.
00:32:54The media serves as my tongue.
00:32:56If I want them to say something, then that's what they say.
00:33:01Before you try to ruin my daughter, take a realistic look in the mirror, dear.
00:33:06You are simply not qualified.
00:33:08Take every memory card!
00:33:13Ms. Sawyer, what do we do?
00:33:17Come on, take her!
00:33:21Sorry, Professor Hale. Before coming here today, I made sure all my people were aware of my whereabouts and had
00:33:26copies of the evidence.
00:33:27The board members of Skyway Group, the shareholders of Grace Tech.
00:33:31Oh, not to mention the team at my new job, the state attorney's office.
00:33:35If even a single hair on my head or that of any of my students is touched today, they'll be
00:33:40here in a heartbeat.
00:33:41Professor Hale, would you like to meet them?
00:33:44Theodore, you think you're the only one in this world who can wield power?
00:33:50You've been plotting this for a long time, I see.
00:33:53Theodore, you've had it too good for too long. You've forgotten where you came from.
00:33:57That's fine. Let me remind you.
00:34:02Claire, stop right there!
00:34:05Grandpa, do something!
00:34:08Shut up!
00:34:09Looks like I really underestimated that little brat.
00:34:14Are you okay?
00:34:15Yeah. Just way too nervous.
00:34:18Professor, you were incredible today. All of us want to be like you. One day.
00:34:22Too bad it was all for nothing. None of that press conference will even be broadcasted.
00:34:26The Hales are really so powerful, aren't they?
00:34:28Who says it was all for nothing?
00:34:30Theodore may be devious, but he's old.
00:34:32Does he really think we're still living in an age when mainstream media controls the narrative?
00:34:36He's wrong. This is the age of social media.
00:34:38The moment they chose to livestream, they already lost.
00:34:41Good day, Ms. Sawyer. I'm Liam Sterling, a federal prosecutor in charge of the Academic Fraud Task Force.
00:34:47I'd like to talk to you about today's press conference.
00:34:56Your evidence is even more concrete than I expected.
00:35:00Theodore Hale has spent 50 years doing this.
00:35:02There has to be way more victims than just these students.
00:35:04They just need the courage to speak up.
00:35:06I know you've been under enormous public pressure.
00:35:07I read the reports and I'll admit, I fell for them.
00:35:10But seeing the truth with my own eyes today, I owe you an apology.
00:35:13It's fine. More than an apology, what I need is legal support.
00:35:17Don't worry. The U.S. Attorney's Office will open a formal investigation.
00:35:21We'll verify every single piece of evidence, one by one.
00:35:27Make sure every point I raised is taken care of.
00:35:30We can't afford any mistakes.
00:35:34Grandpa!
00:35:35Claire dumped all the evidence of the papers online.
00:35:38Every platform is blowing up right now.
00:35:44Grandpa, what do I do?
00:35:46Everyone is bashing me online.
00:35:47They're even saying my mom and dad died young because I'm cursed.
00:35:50Don't panic.
00:35:51I've already sent people to pull the trending topics and shut down those accounts.
00:35:54If we want to turn this around, we need to think carefully about our next move.
00:35:59Then, Grandpa...
00:35:59You go upstairs and wash your face. I'll take care of the rest.
00:36:06We miscalculated.
00:36:07In this internet age, sweeping things under the work isn't that easy.
00:36:10Veronica, what do you think?
00:36:13Veronica!
00:36:16Eleanor.
00:36:17Where's Eleanor?
00:36:18What are you talking about?
00:36:20I figured out why Claire seemed familiar to you.
00:36:24She looks like Eleanor.
00:36:28You mean the Eleanor Baker?
00:36:30The one we...
00:36:32Theo!
00:36:33Look!
00:36:34We both got in.
00:36:35We can go to New York together.
00:36:40It looks just like her. Far too much to be coincidence.
00:36:44Look again. Lumpback, Georgia.
00:36:46How's that for coincidence?
00:36:48How did it take us this long to notice it?
00:36:50We've been gone too long.
00:36:53Decades trying to rid ourselves of any tie to that backwood little dump, Teddy.
00:36:58That town is sitting on top of our greatest secrets.
00:37:01We have to keep this contained.
00:37:03It all makes sense why Claire won't accept anything I offer.
00:37:06Why she's dead set on Aubrey.
00:37:07She's got to be connected to Eleanor.
00:37:08She must know what happened back then.
00:37:09She's come here for vengeance.
00:37:11All I want is justice.
00:37:14What Claire said, could she have some kind of proof?
00:37:17Proof of what?
00:37:18We were so careful back then.
00:37:20There shouldn't be any proof to be had.
00:37:22But what if there is?
00:37:23What if she exposes what we did?
00:37:25We'd both be finished.
00:37:26You have to figure out a way to stop her.
00:37:28Looks like the only way is to make sure she never opens her mouth again.
00:37:36Claire, have a seat.
00:37:38Please make it brief, Richard.
00:37:40Don't beat around the bush.
00:37:40I'm pressed for time.
00:37:42Claire, you have no idea the hoops I jumped through to get this,
00:37:44but the board is willing to overlook your recent bad press
00:37:47and finally agreed to let me give you another chance.
00:37:50This is the offer letter.
00:37:51Take a look.
00:37:52It's all pretty standard.
00:37:53We can sign it right here if you'd like.
00:37:54Richard, when you fired me without cause a month ago,
00:37:56Chamberlain lost several billion in business.
00:37:59Didn't it?
00:38:00Half a month ago,
00:38:01the cross-border M&A deal I was handling
00:38:03tanked less than a week after someone else took over.
00:38:06Now the deal's dead,
00:38:07the money's gone,
00:38:07and the firm's reputation along with it.
00:38:09Am I right?
00:38:10That...
00:38:11That's only temporary.
00:38:12I climbed to the top on nothing but my own skills.
00:38:15My clients only trust me.
00:38:16Without me, Chamberlain loses at least 20% of its clients.
00:38:19I don't think you had to jump through any hoops at all.
00:38:25It was the board's call.
00:38:27They hope you'll think it over.
00:38:28No need to think it over.
00:38:29I can tell you right now, I'm not interested.
00:38:32Chambers is your best shot.
00:38:33Where else could you possibly go?
00:38:35I'm giving you a way out of this mess.
00:38:37Can you really...
00:38:37To be so stubborn?
00:38:39Even now!
00:38:40None of this would have happened if you just hired Audrey.
00:38:43If you'd listened to Reason, we've been fired in the first place.
00:38:46But no!
00:38:46You had to be so...
00:38:48Too what?
00:38:48Too ungrateful?
00:38:49Too spineless?
00:38:50You get my point.
00:38:52So, either you succeed by succumbing to the whims of the rich, or you are called stubborn?
00:38:57No.
00:38:58Richard, when did you turn into this?
00:39:00Bullying the weak and cowering before the strong?
00:39:02Kissing up to the powerful?
00:39:03What the hell does that get you?
00:39:05Your senior partner title wasn't handed to you.
00:39:07You clawed your way there, case by case.
00:39:10Did you forget all that?
00:39:13Richard, if you carry on like this, Chambers will lose the reputation that was forged over
00:39:17decades of hard work along with your conscience.
00:39:20You don't get it!
00:39:21You're not in my shoes, so you have no damn idea how helpless I am!
00:39:25No, I don't get it, and I don't want to.
00:39:27All I know is before you can be a lawyer, you have to be a decent human being.
00:39:30Without fighting for what's right and true, you have no business being a lawyer.
00:39:34You have to come back.
00:39:36If you don't, the board will...
00:39:37I...
00:39:40You should be ashamed of yourself.
00:39:41The only thing you need to do is return to the scales of Themis and ask yourself whether you even
00:39:46remember why you went into law in the first place.
00:39:56Isn't that the girl who's trending?
00:39:59Kinda looks like it.
00:40:01Trending?
00:40:11Miss Sayre has been spreading rumors across all platforms, making obscene accusations against my family.
00:40:17As a result, we've received a great deal of hate.
00:40:19Today, we wish to clear the air about everything.
00:40:22Claire's claims that my papers are plagiarized are false.
00:40:25I publish those myself.
00:40:27They are in leading journals, so of course they are completely verifiable.
00:40:30I've studied law my whole life, and taught it my whole life, too.
00:40:33At first, I stayed out of it because I wanted to save that young woman from ruin, and Claire as
00:40:38well.
00:40:39But they've gone too far.
00:40:40One of the ladies who claimed Audrey stole her paper, Lena, is actually a poor student I've been supporting.
00:40:45When Audrey was writing her paper, she asked Lena to help her with her research.
00:40:49She paid her a generous $3,000 per month to do so.
00:40:52I never thought she'd actually believe the paper was hers and try to claim it.
00:40:56She's normally so naive, some must have put her up to this.
00:40:59I must say, I didn't think Claire was so vicious.
00:41:01When we uncovered her misconduct, I never imagined she would retaliate with such brute force.
00:41:07This family is tougher to kill than cockroaches.
00:41:10Why would Lena be taking Theodore's money every month?
00:41:13Why didn't she tell me?
00:41:16Hey, Lena.
00:41:21I'm sorry.
00:41:22Miss Claire, I'm sorry.
00:41:24I don't know anything about this.
00:41:26I've never received any payments from them, I swear.
00:41:29But Professor, I looked into it.
00:41:31I don't know how, but that account is really under my name.
00:41:34I only remember that when I was a freshman, Professor Hill took my ID.
00:41:37I assumed it was something to do with the university records or something.
00:41:41He must have used your ID to open the bank account.
00:41:43Theodore planned this really far back.
00:41:45I let you down.
00:41:46I have no future anymore.
00:41:47I'm so tired.
00:41:48It's just not worth it anymore.
00:41:50Lena!
00:41:51Thank you, Miss.
00:41:52For everything.
00:41:53Goodbye.
00:41:55I'm coming, Lena!
00:42:01This is Claire.
00:42:03You're awake.
00:42:04How do you feel?
00:42:05I'm gonna get the doctor.
00:42:07I'm sorry.
00:42:08You can't let them win, Lena.
00:42:10How does hurting yourself solve anything?
00:42:12As long as you live, and grow, and learn, they lose.
00:42:16Lena, you did nothing wrong.
00:42:18It was Theodore who was greedy and bent the law, and Audrey who stole your work.
00:42:22The ones who should be disgraced and made to pay are those bullies hiding behind power.
00:42:28Never you.
00:42:29You chose to study law.
00:42:30Wasn't it to protect justice and keep the truth safe?
00:42:34And now you're punishing the most innocent person of all.
00:42:38Yourself.
00:42:38I don't want this.
00:42:42I don't want this.
00:42:45I want them to pay.
00:42:47I want my work back.
00:42:48But I'm nothing compared to them.
00:42:50I don't have the power.
00:42:52There is a way to beat them.
00:42:53Lena, if you didn't have a powerful weapon of your own, Audrey wouldn't choose your work to steal.
00:42:58You are exceptional, and you can help us win.
00:43:01The right way.
00:43:02The law, the real law, doesn't care about who is weak or strong.
00:43:05It only cares about what is right.
00:43:07I'll be with you.
00:43:08We'll use the rules, the evidence, and justice to make the guilty pay what they owe.
00:43:13Professor Claire, you're right.
00:43:14I'm with you.
00:43:15Actually, Professor, it wasn't just with us, and it wasn't just Audrey doing this.
00:43:19Professor Hale has been taking credit for student work as well.
00:43:23For years.
00:43:25Tell me everything.
00:43:26Theodore's achievements.
00:43:27He climbed to the top on his students' portions.
00:43:29Two grad students committed suicide under him, and because of his power and status, it all got buried.
00:43:33No trace.
00:43:33No scandal.
00:43:34There was also a PhD student named Ethan Reed.
00:43:37He was forced out of the program and now runs a food truck in Brooklyn.
00:43:39A lot of people forced out of their future.
00:43:41That monster.
00:43:42Mrs. Sawyer, I hate him so much.
00:43:44Don't cry.
00:43:45It will end eventually.
00:43:46Maybe he could cover it up the first time, but what about the second or the third?
00:43:49People are already scrutinizing their every move.
00:43:51Get some rest and recover.
00:43:53I'm gonna find more of his victims.
00:43:54This time I'm bringing them down for good.
00:43:59Hi.
00:44:00Are you Ethan Reed?
00:44:05I know who you are, and I know why you're here.
00:44:08But I don't want to hear a damn thing about Theodore Hale.
00:44:10And I'm not interested in being a witness.
00:44:16After all these years, don't you want him to pay?
00:44:21It's meaningless.
00:44:23I don't want to relive the past, I don't want any part of this mess.
00:44:25If you're eating, I'll make you something.
00:44:28If not, move aside. I'm busy.
00:44:36Still there, huh?
00:44:38I know you're not unwilling to fight for justice. You're scared.
00:44:41After hitting wall after wall, you've started believing justice cannot prevail.
00:44:45Scared that even if you give it everything you've got, you still won't be able to scratch the surface of
00:44:49their empire.
00:44:50So, what?
00:44:51This time, it's different. I'm different.
00:44:56The Hales have ruined so many people. What makes you any different?
00:45:00This is the evidence I gathered, so far, of Theodore's academic fraud and his abuse of students.
00:45:06This is my resume.
00:45:07Not only am I at the top of my field, I've been preparing for decades for one singular mission.
00:45:13Bringing down the Hales.
00:45:19This is pointless.
00:45:21If it was that simple, do you think I'd still be out here running a food truck?
00:45:24I used to think like you, passion was enough, like justice would always be there.
00:45:29I kept filing appeals and turning in complaint packets over and over just so I, and the younger students after
00:45:33me, wouldn't have to keep suffering.
00:45:35But every single thing I submitted ended up in that devil's hands.
00:45:37There is no justice in this world.
00:45:39Justice is whatever the people at the top say it is.
00:45:41I saw it for what it was, I accepted what is.
00:45:43It can work.
00:45:45Exposing him matters.
00:45:47And justice absolutely still exists.
00:45:50What are you, three years old?
00:45:52Don't be ridiculous.
00:45:54Yes, one person's power can be weak.
00:45:56What about two, three, a whole crowd?
00:45:59You're not alone anymore.
00:46:01I have many people standing with me.
00:46:02And in the court of public opinion, in the age of social media, the Hales are not untouchable anymore.
00:46:10I don't care anymore!
00:46:12I stopped, stopped caring a long time ago!
00:46:14I never want anything to do with the legal world again!
00:46:17Is that so?
00:46:21Damn right it is.
00:46:24Then what about this?
00:46:26If you hate it so much, why do you still carry it around?
00:46:33I can keep it around as a desk leg, can't I?
00:46:37Stop lying to yourself.
00:46:39You want to be a lawyer.
00:46:41You want justice.
00:46:42And more than anything, you want Theodore to pay for what he did.
00:46:45Yeah.
00:46:47I do.
00:46:47I think about it every day.
00:46:51But I can't do it.
00:46:53You're some big shot lawyer, aren't you?
00:46:56You know all these rich and powerful people, so why the hell are you even coming to me?
00:47:01Because I want the Hale family to learn.
00:47:04David can bring down Goliath.
00:47:20Okay. I'm in.
00:47:27The people I sent to keep an eye on Claire says she's been hunting down my former students.
00:47:32The ones who never made it through school.
00:47:34She's determined to take you down, Teddy.
00:47:36And us along with you.
00:47:39Her? She doesn't even have the leverage to do that.
00:47:43I've already given her more chances than she deserves.
00:47:46She clearly has a death wish.
00:47:48It's best I oblige.
00:47:51I got the materials you sent.
00:47:53Alright, bye.
00:47:55Finally, with all these people coming forward,
00:47:58it'll be a lot easier to go after Theodore.
00:48:14Scream, and I'll choke you to death.
00:48:19What do you want?
00:48:21What makes you think you can be so damn arrogant to go picking a fight with Professor Hale?
00:48:30Get in.
00:48:31Now.
00:48:43You think you can run from me?
00:48:53What the hell?
00:49:02That man was trying to kidnap me!
00:49:19Theodore is getting desperate.
00:49:31Don't come any closer.
00:49:36Easy. Calm down.
00:49:38It's me, Liam Sterling.
00:49:41Prosecutor Sterling?
00:49:42What are you doing here?
00:49:44I went digging in Theodore's past, just like you suggested.
00:49:47He's used dirty tactics before.
00:49:49I was worried he'd come after you, so I came to check on you.
00:49:52It seems I'm too late.
00:49:54Are you hurt?
00:49:59I'm fine. I already called the cops.
00:50:01I'm assigning police protection for you.
00:50:03Theodore's backed into a corner now.
00:50:05He's capable of doing anything.
00:50:07We have to move up the investigation.
00:50:10This is a copy of the file I pulled on the two graduate student suicides you told me about.
00:50:15A lot of details were buried, but the cracks are there if you look close enough.
00:50:24Thank you.
00:50:26Of course.
00:50:27You're not alone on the road to justice.
00:50:39Sorry to come by so late.
00:50:41I saw the news saying you were attacked and I couldn't stop worrying.
00:50:44I also have something I need to give you.
00:50:47Have... have a seat.
00:50:53This is the diary of my fellow senior.
00:50:56She was Theodore's graduate student.
00:51:01She jumped to her death in her second year.
00:51:04It's full of accusations against Theodore.
00:51:07All these years we fought, we sued, we did everything we could.
00:51:12And it never went anywhere.
00:51:14Not until I saw what happened to you,
00:51:16did I believe someone out there still cared about the truth.
00:51:21Please.
00:51:22Get justice for my classmate.
00:51:27Get up.
00:51:29I promise you, I will.
00:51:33Thank you.
00:51:34Also, what happened to you definitely has Theodore's fingerprints all over it.
00:51:38I know a security company.
00:51:39Tomorrow I'll have them set you up with a few bodyguards to keep you safe.
00:51:42Thank you so much.
00:51:45These four will work in shifts around the clock,
00:51:48stationed near your place and following you whenever you go out.
00:51:51Just focus on gathering evidence.
00:51:53Don't worry about anything else.
00:51:54Thank you.
00:51:55Don't worry.
00:51:56I will make sure your classmate gets the justice she deserved.
00:52:00These are the other victims I've contacted.
00:52:02They're all willing to come forward.
00:52:08Professor, all the witness statements are ready.
00:52:10The joint complaint packet is almost done.
00:52:14Hello, this is Claire Sawyer.
00:52:18Okay, send the files to my email, thanks.
00:52:23What's wrong, Professor?
00:52:25It's about Veronica Hell.
00:52:28Someone reported that she's laundering money through her gallery and art sales.
00:52:34Looks like their whole family's good days are finally coming to an end.
00:52:42You blew it!
00:52:43And now she's constantly with a bunch of bodyguards!
00:52:47Now Claire's on guard, and she's got leverage on us.
00:52:51If she pulls this off, we're finished!
00:52:53Easy, Teddy. Don't get your blood pressure up.
00:52:56We may not be able to kill her, but we can make damn sure she never works in this industry
00:53:01again.
00:53:01Once we wreck her reputation and get her law license rejected, she'll have no standing and no connections.
00:53:07Then she'll be easy to deal with.
00:53:08You're a genius!
00:53:10I'll call the Bar Association right now and push for a hearing to strip her of her license!
00:53:17Claire, you've got an expedited delivery.
00:53:23That's odd. I'm not expecting anything.
00:53:28Looks like Theodore's really losing his cool.
00:53:31He can't kill me.
00:53:33And he can't handle the backlash, so now he's going after my reputation.
00:53:38What are we gonna do?
00:53:41Mom, it's fine.
00:53:43This hearing Theodore set up actually works in my favor.
00:53:49I never thought, after all these years being well into our 70s,
00:53:53to still be getting smeared and slandered like this.
00:53:56Theodore hasn't slept through the night in ages.
00:53:58His health is getting worse by the day.
00:54:01We really can't take it anymore.
00:54:03I've always respected the law, upheld justice, and encouraged my students to stand for what's right.
00:54:09Miss Sayre, on the other hand, has chosen to cross the line instead.
00:54:11She's suspected of malicious defamation and fabricating evidence.
00:54:15Quite simply, it is a person who knows the law and decided to break it.
00:54:19She's not fit to practice. She does not deserve the title of attorney.
00:54:23For the sake of the integrity of the law, my family and I have no choice but to hold her
00:54:27accountable.
00:54:28I am formally demanding that Claire Sawyer's law license be revoked.
00:54:32Can't you hear how ridiculous you sound?
00:54:40Theodore, you love preaching about integrity. I can't help but wonder which definition of integrity you mean exactly.
00:54:47Especially when you are the one breaking the very law you claim to protect.
00:54:56Claire, today's hearing is about whether your law license should be revoked.
00:55:01What's with all the commotion?
00:55:02Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, shame on you.
00:55:06I've learned my lesson.
00:55:07I'm worried the media Professor Hale hired is too spinless to report the truth again.
00:55:17Now that everyone's here, this hearing is officially in session.
00:55:26Claire Sawyer, we've received a complaint alleging you maliciously defamed others and fabricated evidence to support bogus claims. How do
00:55:33you plead?
00:55:34Not guilty, Your Honor. I did not defame anyone.
00:55:38Every single word I said is backed by real evidence.
00:55:42Everyone, take a good look at these documents.
00:55:44Since Theodore started teaching graduate students, many have fallen into depression, dropped out, and even taken their own lives.
00:55:52It's all there, yet somehow all of these reports never saw the light of day.
00:56:01This is, there's been a misunderstanding.
00:56:04A misunderstanding?
00:56:06Theodore, stop playing the role of the revered academic.
00:56:10How many promising students have you driven to drop out and quit?
00:56:13The evidence is overwhelming.
00:56:16That is complete nonsense. What does any of this have to do with me?
00:56:20If they dropped out because they were depressed, that's their own problem.
00:56:22The quality of students these days keeps getting worse.
00:56:24So fragile, so rebellious, with zero tolerance, they fall apart over the smallest thing.
00:56:28If they can't even handle the pressure of school, how are they supposed to survive in the real world?
00:56:32Your shamelessness never ceases to amaze me.
00:56:36Watch your mouth!
00:56:39Young people get hot-headed, I understand.
00:56:41But insulting people at random only proves how rotten your character is.
00:56:46You don't deserve to call yourself a lawyer.
00:56:49Please turn to page 9 in the package, everyone.
00:56:55It clearly shows Professor Theodore Hale's admissions data over his 30 years of teaching.
00:56:59His students are all top-ranking in their states or full scholarship recipients.
00:57:04At worst, they're top three in their major, the kind of talent every law school is fighting to recruit.
00:57:09Yet, he just insisted that the quality of students have wessened.
00:57:12That tells you exactly how he disregides his students.
00:57:15Why do students end up with psychological problems?
00:57:17Because he pushed them to that point.
00:57:19That's because they couldn't handle the pressure themselves!
00:57:22They're weak! It has nothing to do with me!
00:57:25You're rattled.
00:57:29Undergraduate courses doesn't guarantee success all the way.
00:57:31Graduate school is stressful to begin with. It's perfectly normal for a student to have trouble adjusting emotionally for a
00:57:36while.
00:57:36So blatantly showing bias. I wonder how many favors you've done for these people.
00:57:39Claire! Shut your mouth!
00:57:41Say one more slanderous word and I'll add another defamation charge to the pile!
00:57:46I can see we will run out of time long before this panel fairly considers the seriousness of this evidence.
00:57:51Then let the victims speak for themselves.
00:57:54Let their voices be heard!
00:58:02Hey Ethan! My dear boy! I was so disappointed when you decided to drop out. You've been on my mind
00:58:08ever since.
00:58:10How are you?
00:58:12We've paid you handsomely to solve our indifferences. What are you doing here?
00:58:18Professor Hale, if you've got something to say, say it loud and clear. No need to mutter under your breath.
00:58:25I gave each of them a mic, all of it feeding straight into the live stream. It's incredible how great
00:58:31the sound quality is for such a little mic!
00:58:35Today I'm here to report Theodore Hale for stealing students' academic work and psychologically abusing them for years.
00:58:42Not only did he refuse to provide the required supervision to his students, but he plagiarized their work and claimed
00:58:48them as his own or his granddaughter.
00:58:49I filed multiple reports back at the time, but Theodore worked with the university leadership to get hold of those
00:58:54files. They threatened me and forced me to drop out.
00:58:58I worked under him for more than a year. I stayed up every night doing research and writing reports.
00:59:03All the research, planning and writing of drafts were my own work. When he realized the quality of my work,
00:59:08he took my draft and handed it to his granddaughter.
00:59:10He didn't even mention my name in the article at all. My sister was exploited by him for years. He
00:59:16stole her research, humiliated her constantly, and pushed her to the edge until she had no way out.
00:59:21In the end, she took her own life. This was never about students being fragile. It is all about him
00:59:27being a bully!
00:59:28He kept psychologically tearing us down for years. No matter how well we did, he always said it wasn't enough.
00:59:34He belittled and degraded us in public, then had the nerve to say that getting to stunder him was some
00:59:40huge blessing.
00:59:41The second we pushed back even a little, he made life hell for us and prevented us from graduating.
00:59:46He threatened us not to say a word to anyone, saying if we dared report him, he'd completely shut us
00:59:52out of Academia and make sure we could never work in our field for the rest of our lives.
00:59:56Theodore, with so many witnesses all singing the same song, you can't possibly still insist that they are the problem?
01:00:05Claire, you think finding a bunch of disgruntled students and convincing them to band together will convince anyone?
01:00:12Nobody who is worth their salt will believe this over Theodore's immense reputation. This is nothing but revenge! You're singling
01:00:19him out!
01:00:19What? You think I'm only targeting him? Oh no. I'm targeting you.
01:00:28Young lady, don't ladder yourself. I've seen dozens of girls like you charm their way to the top.
01:00:33And now you've decided to make an example of my granddaughter to try to prove that you're righteous.
01:00:37Our family has spent 50 years establishing itself in these circles and cultivating those connections.
01:00:42And you think charming a few men can compete with that? Don't be ungrated, dear.
01:00:46Is that really something a master artist should say? So disgusting. Can't a female be successful without sleeping her way
01:00:52there?
01:00:53She was acting like some female icon before. What a joke.
01:00:59I've also received multiple reports that you use the gallery under your name to flip art wicks, manipulate auction prices,
01:01:06and even launder money through art transactions.
01:01:08I didn't. Those are false allegations.
01:01:12Don't forget that we came from a small town with nothing to our name but grit. I know firsthand what
01:01:17hard work and education demands. I would never exploit students. Never!
01:01:24Professor Hale, you love reminding us of your small town start. But did you really get out on your own?
01:01:29Did you and your wife really get to where you are today by sheer grit and hard work?
01:01:33Of course we did! Everything we have, we've earned!
01:01:36I suppose if you lie long enough, you start believing it yourself. Let me remind you then. You forgot the
01:01:42part where you abandoned your pregnant fiancé to run away with the current Mrs. Hale.
01:01:46Not to mention that little detail about Mrs. Hale stealing another woman's scholarship and acceptance to Columbia University.
01:01:53You accused me of abandoning my fiancé and daughter, but it's common knowledge that my wife is standing right here
01:02:00beside me as she has done for the past 50 years through thick and thin.
01:02:05Which wife is that, hmm? Veronica? You mean this Veronica? Or Eleanor Baker, the woman you dumped back in that
01:02:11little town?
01:02:14What the hell are you saying? What kind of nonsense are you making up in here? What's your angle?
01:02:20Everyone, please look at this photo.
01:02:25Theodore, do you remember this woman?
01:02:28This is a young woman I knew back in the day. She had a thing for me. But I turned
01:02:33her down. Firmly. A long time ago.
01:02:36The words, they're because...
01:02:39Oh, right, exactly. It was me who took that photo, actually. Claire, don't you go confusing people with this old
01:02:45photo. Is that so?
01:02:48Eleanor, once I get settled, I'm coming back to bring you with me. Eleanor, you're the only one in my
01:02:53heart.
01:02:54Eleanor, don't worry. I'll give you and the baby a good home. Eleanor, I'll be getting your spot at Columbia
01:02:59very soon.
01:03:00Everyone can see that every single letter is signed Theodore Hall.
01:03:08And the person these letters belong to, the one who was supposed to receive Columbia's full scholarship, was my grandmother,
01:03:15Eleanor Baker.
01:03:19So this is the real Eleanor? Then who's the Mrs. Hale up there?
01:03:22I'm sure everyone's wondering, if my grandmother was Eleanor Baker, then who exactly is this woman who spent her whole
01:03:28life calling herself Mrs. Hale?
01:03:30She's not Eleanor. She's Veronica Carter, the daughter of the small town's mayor.
01:03:37You're lying. Veronica Carter? I have no idea what you're talking about.
01:03:44Still playing hard bar, huh? Fine. I've got proof of that too.
01:03:51This photo was taken a few years ago when you went back to your hometown to pay respects to your
01:03:57father.
01:03:58Your father pulled some strings and nearly erased every trace of your old identity.
01:04:02So, she really is Veronica? She stole Eleanor's identity?
01:04:06The daughter of a mayor stole a poor girl's scholarship, taking her whole future along with it.
01:04:11And the real Eleanor was trapped in that little town for her whole life. This was supposed to be hers.
01:04:18Theodore, my grandma, kept waiting until the day she died.
01:04:22Too bad you never made it back to her.
01:04:24What she got instead was you running off with this woman.
01:04:26You stole her name, stole her scholarship and abandoned her with child.
01:04:33One of you became a legal legend, the other a famous artist.
01:04:37But what about the real Eleanor?
01:04:39You kept her trapped in that town with people shoving fingers in her face and calling her a bastard mother
01:04:44her whole life.
01:04:45No!
01:04:45That's not true!
01:04:47Not convinced Miss Carter, no problem. Some more proof for you then.
01:04:51My mother is Eleanor's biological daughter.
01:04:53Any one of you can do a DNA comparison with her to verify whether that's true or not.
01:05:04This is my mother, Eleanor Baker.
01:05:06In 1976, the year you left town, June 13th, was the last time you wrote my mother.
01:05:12Saying you'd come back for us and take us both away.
01:05:16After that, we never heard from you again.
01:05:18She looks so much like Theodore, they don't even need a DNA test.
01:05:21What kind of beast leaves his pregnant wife out in the mountains and runs off to become a professor?
01:05:27All that talk about fairness and justice. How does this guy even do it?
01:05:31And he calls himself a professor? He doesn't deserve it.
01:05:34Hurry! Cut the live stream now! Stop filming!
01:05:39Professor Hale got so rattled, he forgot something.
01:05:43There's not just your media here, there's media I brought too.
01:05:47I'm afraid, Professor, nobody's shutting down the live stream this time.
01:05:50Mother, you waited for him until your last living day.
01:05:55Today I brought you to him.
01:05:58Look at him carefully. Look at his face. Look at the woman beside him. Look at the life they've been
01:06:03living.
01:06:06Theodore, you keep saying you came from a small town and care the most about fairness.
01:06:10But do you even know what it truly means?
01:06:13Every time you say the name Eleanor, doesn't your conscience ache at all?
01:06:17It's lies. All lies. All of it.
01:06:21Is that all you have to say to us? To my mother and I?
01:06:24It's slander! I didn't do it! I didn't!
01:06:27Professor Hale, hello. This is Columbia's Judicial Affairs Office.
01:06:30The school has now formed a special investigative committee and officially launched an inquiry into your alleged identity fraud, academic
01:06:36misconduct, and abuse of power to suppress student complaints.
01:06:39Please report to campus for questioning within 24 hours.
01:06:46Theodore!
01:06:48It's all her! Her father used the mayor's power to pressure me!
01:06:54Theodore Hale, have you lost your damn mind? What the hell are you talking about?
01:06:59You were the one who came to me back then!
01:07:03You were the one who said that country girl wasn't good enough for you!
01:07:08And now you're dumping everything on me?
01:07:10All that stuff about 50 years of standing by each other, the old educator's composure, the veteran artist's integrity, under
01:07:16the truth, it all shattered into dust.
01:07:18The ugly side of humanity put on full display.
01:07:24Shut your mouth! Why else would I be with you if I wasn't coerced?
01:07:30You shut up!
01:07:32What right do you have to bring up my dad?
01:07:36Back then you were the one of my family's connections, and now you blame everything on me!
01:07:40Have you got no shame?
01:07:42I'm done! I'll fight you to the death!
01:07:47Ladies and gentlemen, we're with the State Department of Justice Special Investigation Team.
01:07:52As for the cases involving Theodore Hale and Veronica Carter's identity fraud, academic misconduct, money laundering and related offenses, we
01:07:59are now officially placing you under arrest.
01:08:02Officer...
01:08:02Theodore, Veronica, come with us.
01:08:06Officer, you've got it all wrong. None of this is real.
01:08:11It was her! She's the mastermind! I'm the victim here! Take her away!
01:08:17Officer, if you're taking anybody, take Theodore.
01:08:22This has nothing to do with me. He did all of it. I didn't know a thing.
01:08:26It was you! You did this! All of it!
01:08:33I'm sorry, Eleanor. I'm so sorry. It's all my fault.
01:08:39It was Dad's fault. It was Grandpa's fault. Please forgive me, okay? You've all got my blood in you. You
01:08:48can't just turn your backs on me.
01:08:53He finally said the apology he owed for 50 years. But Grandma, she couldn't hear it. Still, that's okay. I've
01:09:01settled this account.
01:09:04Claire! This is amazing! We did it!
01:09:08Yeah, we did it. From now on, you can focus on your studies in peace.
01:09:15No one's ever going use you as a stepping stone again.
01:09:19Your work belongs to you, and you alone.
01:09:23Claire, thank you.
01:09:27Me too. Someday, I'm going to be a lawyer like you.
01:09:33Us too!
01:09:36It's over. The DA's office will stay on top of the rest of the legal process all the way through.
01:09:43Thank you, Liam. I couldn't have gotten through this without your support.
01:09:47I told you, you're not walking the road to justice alone.
01:09:52Grandma, you were trapped in that town for 50 years, and when you died, you still couldn't be buried alongside
01:09:56your family.
01:09:57Today, everything is as it should have been. You may finally rest in peace.
01:10:02The man who abandoned you and daughter, and the woman who stole your life, they both got what was coming
01:10:06to them.
01:10:07Renowned law professor Theodore Hale has been permanently asked from his post and stripped of all honorary titles for identity
01:10:11fraud, academic misconduct, and abuse of a justice system.
01:10:13Renowned artist Berana Carter has been arrested on charges including identity PF and money laundering.
01:10:17Grandma, do you hear that? Their fortune is gone, they're both behind bars, and they'll spend the rest of their
01:10:23lives in prison.
01:10:24Mom, I've held this anger in for 50 years. At long last, I can let it go.
01:10:30I founded this firm and named it Fulcrum, because this is where justice, equality, and integrity connect to each other.
01:10:38Where lawyers are not afraid to get their hands dirty, while keeping their conscience clean.
01:10:45Claire, thank you.
01:10:46You're standing here because you made it here yourself. I just moved the stones out of your way.
01:10:51One day, you'll be the one sitting in a position of authority. Others will look to you for your approval,
01:10:58for your hand to guide them.
01:11:00When that day comes, remember the road that brought you here.
01:11:05Alright everyone, let's get to work.
01:11:08There are probably still many people like Eleanor, trapped in their own little towns.
01:11:13The next fight starts right here, right now.
