Clips from The Good Fight - Inauguration (S01E01)

"Are you hearing this?"
The Good Fight
"It's all gone?"
The Good Fight
"The Rindells have 13.8 million on hand,"
The Good Fight
"and that's from an initial investment of eight billion."
The Good Fight
"They never invested a cent?"
The Good Fight
"Not after 2008."
The Good Fight
"The housing bubble. There was a shortfall,"
The Good Fight
"and they made it up with money from new investors."
The Good Fight
"But I steered people to them."
The Good Fight
"The Women's Fund, all their money."
The Good Fight
"I even told Emily's List to put their 401k there."
The Good Fight
"I know there's a lot for you to process, Diane,"
The Good Fight
"but we need to think about a few things"
The Good Fight
"and act fast."
The Good Fight
"The escrow? Yes."
The Good Fight
"There will be a penalty,"
The Good Fight
"but we must get out of it now."
The Good Fight
"Yes."
The Good Fight
"Good."
The Good Fight
"And you need to delay your retirement."
The Good Fight
"The government might freeze your account"
The Good Fight
"and put you on a living-wage budget."
The Good Fight
"What? Why?"
The Good Fight
"Well, they can claw back past earnings"
The Good Fight
"and distribute them among all the victims."
The Good Fight
"That's what they did with Madoff."
The Good Fight
"But my personal account, that is my money, isn't it?"
The Good Fight
"No, not necessarily."
The Good Fight
"They'll allow you to keep"
The Good Fight
"a subsistence-level amount of cash,"
The Good Fight
"but they might freeze the rest."
The Good Fight
"So am I broke?"
The Good Fight
"Well, I don't like to talk that way,"
The Good Fight
"but you can't live the way you've been living"
The Good Fight
"for more than a few months."
The Good Fight
"You'll need to keep your job."
The Good Fight
"Or maybe sublet this apartment."
The Good Fight
"Is there a reason you and your husband are"
The Good Fight
"delaying your divorce?"
The Good Fight
"What?"
The Good Fight
"You and your husband are separated, right?"
The Good Fight
"Yes. Well, if your separation is permanent,"
The Good Fight
"then you really should consider"
The Good Fight
"memorializing with the divorce,"
The Good Fight
"otherwise, his accounts could be frozen, too."
The Good Fight
"This is a nightmare."
The Good Fight
"Again, you need to act first."
The Good Fight
"And the first thing is to delay your retirement."
The Good Fight
"This is not just about my financial situation."
The Good Fight
"I'm also afraid I would miss practicing the law."
The Good Fight
"I was in the midst of the Kendall deposition,"
The Good Fight
"and I though, uh, my God,"
The Good Fight
"I love this-- this is what I do."
The Good Fight
"So what do you propose?"
The Good Fight
"That I not leave. That I close the case,"
The Good Fight
"and, um, that I stay on."
The Good Fight
"In what position?"
The Good Fight
"This position. My-my current position."
The Good Fight
"You signed your exit agreement."
The Good Fight
"Well, yes, but I would suggest we rip that up for the moment."
The Good Fight
"Unfortunately, I don't think that works for us."
The Good Fight
"Why not?"
The Good Fight
"Well, we're kind of top-heavy, like you said."
The Good Fight
"We already reorganized around your leaving."
The Good Fight
"This is my firm."
The Good Fight
"No, it was your firm."
The Good Fight
"Look, if you want to stay on as an emeritus,"
The Good Fight
"we can discuss that."
The Good Fight
"And lose my equity?"
The Good Fight
"What is to keep me from taking my clients out the door with me?"
The Good Fight
"Where would you take them?"
The Good Fight
"I just brought Cook County and their 32 million a year to you."
The Good Fight
"Let's see how you feel when you lose them."
The Good Fight
"[elevator bell dings]"
The Good Fight
"You're her, aren't you?"
The Good Fight
"No."
The Good Fight
"You're a Rindell."
The Good Fight
"I lost my retirement because of you. Excuse me, I have to..."
The Good Fight
"I know where you work, you stupid bitch!"
The Good Fight
"You think this is over? Ms. Rindell."
The Good Fight
"I have nothing to do with... No, I'm Yesha Mancini."
The Good Fight
"I'm your lawyer."
The Good Fight
"RECEPTIONIST: Good morning, Lockhart, Deckler..."
The Good Fight
"How old are you?"
The Good Fight
"Does that matter?"
The Good Fight
"It can."
The Good Fight
"Twenty-five."
The Good Fight
"And you've been a lawyer for?"
The Good Fight
"Six months."
The Good Fight
"Three months longer than me."
The Good Fight
"Uh, you contacted my firm asking for a lawyer."
The Good Fight
"No, my girlfriend did."
The Good Fight
"[stammers] Your girlfriend contacted my firm"
The Good Fight
"asking for a lawyer."
The Good Fight
"Everyone else was busy, so..."
The Good Fight
"tag-- I'm it."
The Good Fight
"I-I think we need"
The Good Fight
"to talk about a few things--"
The Good Fight
"I got to get back."
The Good Fight
"Uh, when the Feds call you in for an interview--"
The Good Fight
"and they will-- call me."
The Good Fight
"Here's my card."
The Good Fight
"Actually, it's my firm's card."
The Good Fight
"I just scratched out my boss' name."
The Good Fight
"That's mine right there."
The Good Fight
"Doesn't really instill confidence."
The Good Fight
"[chuckles]"
The Good Fight
"I'll have cards made up for next time."
The Good Fight
"So, um, I was thinking about what you said at the party."
The Good Fight
"That you would have partners"
The Good Fight
"thrown out the door to make room for me."
The Good Fight
"Now, you're looking for an emeritus position?"
The Good Fight
"Uh, no, a partnership."
The Good Fight
"I mean, I'm not looking for my name on the door, just..."
The Good Fight
"Well, let me talk to my partners."
The Good Fight
"So I was thinking about what you said at my party,"
The Good Fight
"and I realized-- why am I leaving the law?"
The Good Fight
"We're not done breaking the glass ceiling."
The Good Fight
"You're not retiring? No."
The Good Fight
"But I am leaving my old firm."
