That shit's inadmissible as fuck.
1216
00:55:39,437 --> 00:55:41,038
True.
1217
00:55:41,072 --> 00:55:44,041
But now that I know
what to look for, I'll find it.

[Davis]
You'll never get this in,
1219
00:55:45,543 --> 00:55:49,914
and I can still call Tameika as a witness
and prove you've got your own agenda.
1220
00:55:49,947 --> 00:55:52,717
So we're at an impasse.
1221
00:55:52,750 --> 00:55:54,618
Or an opportunity.
1222
00:55:55,820 --> 00:55:56,821
What do we both want?
1223
00:55:56,854 --> 00:55:59,657
Or rather,
what's in the interest of justice?
1224
00:55:59,690 --> 00:56:02,460
Tasha's not the queenpin.
1225
00:56:02,493 --> 00:56:04,361
She's not.
1226
00:56:04,395 --> 00:56:06,964
And you didn't kill James St. Patrick.
1227
00:56:06,997 --> 00:56:09,366
I did not.
1228
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:12,937
So, if I back off the recusal
and we go to trial...
1229
00:56:15,106 --> 00:56:17,074
...we work together.
1230
00:56:17,108 --> 00:56:21,112
I get Tariq to take the stand,
and on cross, you do your job.
1231
00:56:21,145 --> 00:56:24,715
So Tasha goes home.
1232
00:56:24,749 --> 00:56:27,618
And the real killer goes to jail.
1233
00:56:31,655 --> 00:56:35,493
She won't be happy
when her son is convicted of murder.
1234
00:56:35,526 --> 00:56:37,895
He'll be tried as an adult now.
He might get the needle.
1235
00:56:37,928 --> 00:56:39,897
He's not my client. I don't care.
1236
00:56:39,930 --> 00:56:42,900
When Tasha's acquitted,
I'm in the win column.
1237
00:56:42,933 --> 00:56:44,935
[scoffs]
1238
00:56:51,609 --> 00:56:53,544
Is it a deal?
1239
00:56:58,549 --> 00:57:00,484
In the interest of justice...
1240
00:57:02,486 --> 00:57:03,721
...it's a deal.
1241
00:57:04,822 --> 00:57:07,158
Tariq St. Patrick's going to jail.
