ChuckI don't see the Journal here.
[pulls up the Wall Street Journal] Here you go.
Chuck
No, the Albuquerque Journal. It's not here.
Oh, yeah. I didn't see it outside.
Chuck
It wasn't out there? It's always out there.
I didn't see it. Maybe they forgot to deliver it, maybe some kids grabbed it.
Chuck
[sarcastically] Because if there's one thing kids love, it's local print journalism.
I don't know what to tell ya, you got a ton of reading material here. Look, hey, Financial Times. I know Albuquerque is a hub of global intrigue, but you think that'll tide you over?
[Jimmy notices his billboard story in Chuck's house]
You think this is the return of Slippin' Jimmy, but it's not.
Chuck
[indulgingly] Alright.
You think the billboard thing was unethical, but it was promotion. It was advertising, that's all.
Chuck
Which wasn't even allowed until five Supreme Court justices went completely bonkers in Bates v. State Bar of Arizona.
Chuck
But in any event, it's legal. If you wanna advertise, that's your business.
Business being the operative word there, Chuck! Because I have gotten business off of this. Legit business, wills, trusts... I'm kind of starting to specialize in elder law.
Chuck
Elder law?
Yeah, the things the elderly have to deal with, I mean. You know, relatives coming after their savings, telemarketers, reverse-mortgage scams; I mean, getting old sucks! Seniors need someone on their side, so... you're looking at him.
Chuck
Oh, that sounds... promising... but it has nothing to do with my condition.
Chuck, listen. I'm gonna make you a promise right now, okay?
Chuck
No, not necessary, not requested.
Okay, the billboard was a one-time thing. I–I'm a good lawyer, I just needed some razzmatazz, you know? To get the ball rolling, some showmanship. That's all it was, it's done now, it's over.
Chuck
Alright.
From here on out, I'm gonna play by the rules.
Chuck
As any lawyer should.
Exactly! There are clients out there who need me, and I'm gonna give them the best representation I know how to provide. I'm on the up-and-up, okay? I will be good; Slippin' Jimmy, he's back in Cicero, dead and buried.
Chuck
...Okay. We'll see.
[Jimmy and Chuck arrange a meeting with Sandpiper's lawyers]
Well, let's get started. We've read your revised demand; it's quite a laundry list, very creative.
Yeah, creative. Like the way your clients have been billing my clients? Because that's, like, Salvador Dali creative.
That's cute–you know you're not gonna make this stick. Setting aside evidentiary concerns–
Whoa, your guys couldn't afford ten bucks for a padlock? That's on them: public property.
Maybe a judge sees that your way, maybe he doesn't, but the damages for elder abuse? The statute requires proof that there was some undue influence. Someone threatening the residents of Sandpiper Crossing.
AAlvin
As far as I understand it, no one has claimed that there was a guy with a knife telling them to hand over their lunch money.
There are a lot of assisted living facilities out there that may be disreputable, but that's not the case with our client, not even close. All their facilities, all 12 of them, every single one, five-star rated. You go to any one of them right now, and you know what you'll see? You'll see happy, healthy residents. Sandpiper takes care of these people, they don't bilk them...but, we looked into it and some of your clients have, in fact, been overbilled. It's a–it's an accounting error. It doesn't rise to the level of fraud–not even close.
PPhil
We've calculated the damages. All told, it's $46,320.
Mhm. So, here's what we're prepared to do: we're gonna make your clients whole. A check for the 46 and change right now, and on top of that, we'll give you another 46K to cover your expenses. So what's that, 92? Let's call it $100,000, even. We admit to no wrongdoing, and your clients release all claims. [leans back in chair]
[Jimmy glances at Chuck, then retrieves the syringe invoice]
I think you're gonna need to do better than that.
Ah. This was in your demand letter. They're syringes. So? I-I don't know if you know this, but that's a pretty standard item in an assisted living facility.
Correct, but it's not what it is that matters. It's where it's from.
Go Cornhuskers. [beat] Well, since you're not picking up what I'm putting down, I'll explain it to you. Nebraska, although they both begin with the letter N, actually turns out to be a different state than New Mexico, so your client accepted shipments across state lines for its enterprise. I-in the U.S. mail, no less!
Are you trying to make this a RICO case?
PPhil
Like our client is John Gotti, or something?
Well, you know as well as I do, RICO's used mostly for business beefs. Sedima establishes a pretty low threshold for RICO provisions to kick in. Interstate commerce is a bitch, huh? As soon as we establish a pattern to–what was your word–uh, "overbillings?" I prefer the classic term of fraud. You're looking at treble damages, so your 100 grand? I think you know where you can stick it.
...Will you give us a moment?
[Sandpiper's lawyers whisper to each other]
Well, what number exactly did you have in mind?
Chuck
Twenty million.
Chuck
You heard me.
Chuck
Twenty. Million. Dollars... or we'll see you in court.
Jimmy... Jimmy, I'm just gonna say it. You're not working here.
What are you talking about? You said this case is a slam dunk.
Yes. We want the case, we don't want, um... the case is all we want.
You gotta be–you're serious? I walk in here with a multi-million dollar class action lawsuit on a damn platinum platter, a case that I found, that I made happen... and you don't want me?! Why in Christ not?! Well, I know that you hate me, Howard.
Chuck
Jimmy–
I'm fine. You better believe, feeling goes both ways, but I'm willing to set that aside to work with you on this. Why can't you do the same for me? What is it that you can't let go of, huh? What slight did I make to your fine, upstanding character that you can't forgive.
A majority decision has been made by myself and the partners–all due respect to you, Chuck. We are not interested in taking any new associates into the firm.
Bullshit! New associates?! Someone walks in with a case like this, you beg them to be partner! Tell me why! You didn't want me then? Okay. You don't want me now?! Explain it!
Chuck
Howard, I don't know what to say. I am very disappointed, I really think you should reconsider.
I'm sorry, but no. I think it's best if Jimmy takes the of-counsel fee. We could probably up it a bit. Keep in mind, you will be well compensated in the back end. It's easy money, Jimmy. No reason not to take it.
Go to hell, Howard! I'm not giving you my case. And I'm gonna tell every one of those clients what a lying miserable pig fucker you are. I will burn the whole thing to the ground before I give it to you!
[Jimmy is distracted by Chuck's presence at a meeting at HHM]
How about we move on to client outreach?
Jimmy? You still with us?
I'm gonna save you from having to brag: Over two hundred new Sandpiper clients signed over the past three weeks. Well done, Jimmy.
Thank you. Thanks, Cliff. Right now, we're in the process of mapping out the entire Southwest, targeting the largest Sandpiper facilities first: Phoenix, Colorado Springs, Fort Worth, Provo. Ideally, my goal–another two hundred by the end of the month. With this many folks, we have an excellent shot at a solid batch of plaintiffs for the classes in each district.
Excellent! Looking forward to the next report. Onto a stickier wicket, coordinating actions–
Chuck
Sorry, before we move on, I'd like to go back to client outreach just for a moment. Looking over these numbers here, really astonishing results, Jimmy. Incredible. Your last trip to Amarillo, you came back with twenty-two new clients.
Chuck
Twenty-four! I'm confused. Um, how many people out there actually responded to our direct mailer?
Chuck
Oh, right, yeah. A Mrs. Alma May Urbano... but you got twenty four new clients from this one response? That is... wow.
Well, you're welcome. I mean, what, is there a problem?
Chuck
Well, might not some parties—the opposing counsel, for example—see this differential and conclude that there may have been some solicitation involved?
Chuck
I'm just wondering how you account for your success, because it will definitely raise eyebrows over at Schweikart & Cokely. [to the room] I'm sorry, but it will. Particularly in a case involving seniors, for whom the ethical guidelines on solicitation were virtually created by the ABA.
Chuck, I'm sure that— [Chuck hushes him] Jimmy, if you could clear this up, that would be helpful.
I went to Amarillo to confer with a client, and to make sure that we had a solid, good-faith basis for our case there, overall. As many of you are aware, I've visited more than my share of retirement homes. These are close-knit communities, let me tell ya: word gets around real fast. If Dorothy in Phase 2 gets a new Rascal scooter, it's big news.
So these other twenty-three residents, they approached you?
Cliff, they heard the scuttlebutt before I crossed state lines, and I certainly didn't have to go knocking on any doors. And is it any surprise that they wanna speak with a guy who was there to show them they may have money coming their way? I gotta tell ya, with all that in mind: I shoulda done better.
Chuck? We good to move on?
[Jimmy and Chuck stare at each other; Chuck shrugs]
And Chuck, not incidentally, it is absolutely vital that we dot our I's and cross our T's here—invaluable. So, thank you.
Chuck
Well, the price of excellence is eternal vigilance.
Chuck
You have to admit that shows a lack of judgment on [Kim's] part. She knows you. She should have known better.
Chuck
Why? For pointing out that her one mistake was believing in you?
For Christ's sake, could we get some perspective here? It was a simple little commercial, it aired once, that's all. And can I remind you it worked—it worked like a dream?
Chuck
See, that's your problem, Jimmy. Thinking that the ends justify the means. And you're forever shocked when it all blows up in your face.
What did I do that was so wrong?
Chuck
You broke the rules. [Jimmy scoffs] You turned Kim into your accessory. You embarrassed Howard who, God help him, inexplicably vouched for you with Cliff Main. You made Cliff and his partners look like schmucks. Shall I go on? How he hasn't fired you for this positively mystifies me. "Perspective." You want perspective? I'll give you mine. You're my brother, and I love you, but you're like an alcoholic who refuses to admit he's got a problem. Now someone's given you the keys to the school bus and I am not going to let you drive it off a cliff.
C-Can we get down to brass tacks here? What can I do to put Kim back where she belongs, huh? Wha- you want me to quit Davis and Main? That's fine! I never wanted that job in the first place!
Chuck
[exasperated] I-I can't get through to you. Life is not one big game of Let's Make a Deal!
Yes, it is! I'm Monty Hall, what's behind door number two? What'll it take, huh?! [pause] You want me to quit being a lawyer? [Chuck scoffs] Yuh, "a chimp with a machine gun," that's me, right?! Huh? So, what do you say? You help Kim, I quit the law. Is that a deal?
Chuck
I didn't say that.
You didn't say it, but that's what you want, right?! That's why you put the screws to Kim in the first place, to squeeze me!
Chuck
I didn't say that, and I would never say that.
Chuck
Because if I were impeding the career of one of my employees, for the purpose of compelling you to do something against your will, that would be extortion.
[chuckles] Yeah, it would. So? You gonna extort me, Chuck? It's a lead-pipe cinch: You get away with it, I'm not gonna tell anyone. It's real easy—You just set things right with Kim, you get her back in her office out of doc review, everything back to normal, and I quit the law... for good. No more Jimmy McGill Esquire. Poof, like he never even existed.
Chuck
Wow. Wow!
But I need to hear the words come out of your mouth, okay? You're a man of your word, you're an upstanding man, right?!
Chuck
For God's sake. Jimmy—
Come on, Chuck! Extort me! Say "quit" and I will quit, but I need to hear it from your mouth.
Chuck
You want me to commit a felony... because that's what you'd do, right?! Because you want to believe that deep down, I'm some hypocrite!
Let's find out. Come on down, Chuck, roll around in the dirt with me! All your dreams will come true! Go on, do it! Go on!
[Chuck stares at Jimmy]
Chuck
I am not the bad guy here. You don't want to be a lawyer, that's between you and the New Mexico State Bar. You want to quit Davis & Main, be my guest! You clearly don't need any help from me to tank your career; you're doing just fine on your own.
[In a flashback, Jimmy has dinner with Chuck and his then sister-in-law, Rebecca. He pipes up after an awkward silence]
Alright, what's the difference between a vacuum cleaner and a lawyer on a motorcycle? The vacuum cleaner has the dirtbag on the inside. Ha!
Chuck
Heh... lawyer jokes.
I've only been in the mailroom a week and I've heard maybe a hundred! It all comes from a place of affection.
Chuck
Sure. Of course.
What do you get when you cross The Godfather with a lawyer? An offer you can't understand.
Chuck
Never heard that one.
And believe me, I have nothing but the utmost respect for your profession. I mean, it's a pillar of— oh, why do they bury lawyers under twenty feet of dirt? Because deep down, they're really good people. [Chuck gets uncomfortable] What do you call a lawyer with an IQ of 60? Your Honor. What's the difference between a tick and a lawyer?
RRebecca
[amused] Oh, no.
The tick falls off when you're dead! [Rebecca laughs] Bam! Love that one. You like that? [to Chuck] Just joking. I want you to know how seriously I take my job. I—Grateful for the–oh! How many lawyers does it take to change a lightbulb? Classic setup here. Three: one to climb the ladder, one to shake it and one to sue the ladder company. [he and Rebecca laugh]
Chuck
Comedy gold.
Chuck
[gets up] Dessert, anyone? We have a homemade blueberry crumble with vanilla ice cream.
Yeah, blueberry crumble, sounds terrific. I love a fruit based—
RRebecca
Wait, I think I have one!
RRebecca
Yeah, yeah. What do lawyers and sperm have in common? Um, three million—No, wait. One in three million have...
[in unison with Rebecca] ...A chance of becoming a human being!
[Both laugh as Chuck awkwardly leaves. Later, he and Rebecca are lying in bed]
RRebecca
Well, that went well.
Chuck
Sure. Thanks again.
RRebecca
I don't know what you were worried about, Jimmy's great.
Chuck
Yeah. No, he's... yeah.
Do I have a future at this firm?
Chuck
We have a lot in common, you and I. My brother left you holding the bag. If it makes you feel any better, you're not the first person to go out on a limb for him. I made the same mistake, over and over again... and now Howard has, and he blames you. A damn mess. Jimmy ever tell you anything about our father?
Chuck
My dad—our dad—he was... well, the personification of good. I'm not sure he could even see sin, in any form. Like he was born without the gene. He ran a little corner store in Cicero. Cigarettes behind the counter, penny candy. Nothing special, but it kept food on the table, and the neighborhood loved Dad. He knew everybody's name, what was going on in their lives. Just a little corner. He made it better. I was named after him. Before that, he worked for a lot of people over the years and his dream was to be his own boss. Put everything he had into that place. I was away at college when he put Jimmy to work there. Jimmy grew up in that store, watching our father... but Dad was not the world's greatest businessman, and eventually he ran into money troubles. I had a clerkship at the time, but I came home to help him get his books in order. Set the ship straight. Now, I'm no accountant, but I discovered $14,000 was just gone. Vanished over the years. Turns out Jimmy had pilfered it in dribs and drabs, just took it out of the till. My dad wouldn't hear it. Nope, not his Jimmy. He ended up having to sell. Six months later, he was dead. At the funeral, no one cried harder than Jimmy. My brother is not a bad person. He has a good heart. It's just he can't help himself... and everyone's left picking up the pieces.
Chuck
Well, I expected a round of documents an hour ago. You know we've got a filing coming up.
I know, Chuck. It's very possible... it's likely that we're losing Mesa Verde.
Chuck
Losing them?! We just got them! Why, where are they going?
They're going with Kim Wexler. She left the firm.
Chuck
Kim left? Oh, Howard... well, where is she going? Is it Rich Schweikart? Or did Reeves and Green get her?
No, not another firm. She's going into private practice.
Chuck
What?! Well, that's completely... how is she going out on her own? Why is she going out on her own?
Well, the "why" is the why. The "how" is that she's pooling her resources... with Jimmy.
Chuck
...Kim and my brother, partners at law. [shakes head] He's Svengali. The man is Svengali.
At any rate, back to Mesa Verde: I'm gonna try one last Hail Mary. Chuck? Mesa Verde?
Chuck
Yes, listening.
I managed to get a meeting with Kevin Wachtell. He's coming in this afternoon, but compliance law is not my strong suit. So, if you have any details, any arguments, bullet-point them for me now, because I've got about an hour before I have to get back. [Chuck starts walking away] Chuck? I really need your help here!
[Chuck goes through his Mylar-lined suits before picking a regular one]
Chuck
I'm going to that meeting.
Chuck, I don't know if that's a good idea.
Chuck
I can do it! Force of will, and I've been getting better.
I know you have, but the message that we want to send-
Chuck
I know the message! That we appear professional and not crazy! I'm going to the meeting, and the lights stay on. Everyone keeps their phones. Everything stays, for lack of a better word, normal. I will make it through.
[Chuck goes with Howard to negotiate keeping Mesa Verde with HHM]
Chuck
Don't worry. I'm not here to extol the virtues of HHM. I'm guessing you've already had to suffer through Howard's hard sell first time around. So you've done your time, as far as I'm concerned.
What hard sell? It was enthusiasm. I gave them cookies.
Cookies were good, as I recall.
Chuck
No, I'm here to put your minds at ease. Kim Wexler is, indeed, the right choice to handle Mesa Verde. She's the obvious choice. She's young, she's brilliant, she's going places. Let's face it, Howard. She's the future. Two old guys like us, we're the past.
Well, that's a sad thought.
Chuck
Sad but true. [sighs] Banking law... needs to be exciting. It needs the next generation to come along and give it a big, old kick in the seat of the pants. Really wake it up. Let me tell you how boring I am: I read FEC and ISO reports for entertainment.
He does. I can attest to that.
Chuck
Well, I try to stay up on things. The rules are changing all the time. With everything that's happened with Enron and WorldCom, the government is extra vigilant. These days, the penalties for even the most honest of errors can be devastating. You need a sharp, young eye to catch that stuff. I mean, when you've specialized in this kind of work for decades on end, you tend to get kinda...
Chuck
Stale. You get stale. You forget about things like, oh, I don't know, the Community Reinvestment Act. Any bank such as Mesa Verde looking to open a de novo branch is definitely going to need to show a healthy portfolio of CRA compliance. Duh. [chuckles] Obviously, you guys have all that covered, I'm sure. Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act... there's another mouthful, huh? Boring! Still, if you were to run afoul of it, it could hold you up in court for years. And by the way, uh, if that were to happen to you folks as you go forward without us – which it will not – um, Howard has contacts at the Fed who could help sort things out.
Chuck
Mm-hmm. And then there's the SEC's interpretation of Section 302 of Sarbox. Blah, blah, blah! [chuckles]
Well, navigating that correctly could mean savings of several hundred thousand dollars.
Chuck
They know that, Howard. [Howard chuckles] Oh, I apologize. When you reach your golden years, you tend to get a little long-winded, ramble on and on about details. My point being... your bank is in excellent hands.
Look, I take your point. I do. But I have to say, I have complete confidence in Ms. Wexler.
Chuck
You should. She was part of our team. She learned from us. You won't find better than Kim Wexler. But no matter how talented one individual may be, the needs of Mesa Verde are too big to handle alone. I wouldn't handle your coming expansion alone... which is why you should consider, once again, enlisting a team of professionals.
[Chuck wakes up to find Jimmy after he'd doctored the Mesa Verde documents]
He emerges. Good afternoon.
Chuck
Is it afternoon? Where's Ernesto? He was supposed to stay with me.
Don't get mad at Ernie. He spent the better part of a day watching you do your impression of a baked potato. I told him to go home, get some shuteye. You hungry? You want something besides crackers?
Chuck
No, I'm fine. I'll fix myself something after my stomach settles.
Really doing a number on yourself... spending so much time out of the house. You just had to do it, huh? Couldn't stand to let Kim have Mesa Verde, you had to swipe it from her?
Chuck
I didn't swipe anything. We retained our client.
You and Howard never even heard about Mesa Verde 'til Kim brought it to you on a red velvet pillow.
Chuck
[gets up] I need a shower, and I've got a ton of work to do. So if you're looking for a fight, Jimmy, I just don't have it in me. [beat] Jimmy. Thanks for staying with me. I know we have our issues, but... if things were reversed, I hope you know that I would do the same for you.
[Chuck, Howard, Kevin, and Paige are appearing before the Banking Board to get approval to open Mesa Verde's new bank]
Chuck
Mr. Commissioner? Is there something we can clarify?
USMr. Ughetta's Assistant
Uh, yes. Could you give us the address of the proposed Scottsdale branch again?
Chuck
Certainly. It's 1216 Rosella Drive, Scottsdale, Arizona, 85262.
UMr. Ughetta
1216? Okay, because the application I'm looking at today clearly gives the address as 1216.
Chuck
1216. That's correct, sir.
UMr. Ughetta
But in the original submission, we're seeing 1261 Rosella Drive.
Chuck
[ignoring them] I think if you double-check, you'll see that 1216 is correct.
USMr. Ughetta's Assistant
There seem to be two different addresses here.
Mr. Commissioner, I have a copy of our notice of intent, which was published in newspapers in Arizona and New Mexico. It clearly states the address is 1261 Rosella Drive—
Chuck
Mr.–Mr. Commissioner, it-it—
UMr. Ughetta
1261 Rosella Drive. Yes, I have a copy of the notice of intent too. But on the actual filing, the address reads 1216. So, which is it?
Chuck
[beat] Mr. Commissioner, if I may confer with my clients?
UMr. Ughetta
Certainly, please.
[to Chuck] It's absolutely 1261.
Chuck
You are mistaken. And with all due respect, you're muddying the waters here.
Muddying the wat—?! [hands documents to Chuck] Look. Just look!
Chuck
Well, this is clearly an error.
It's 1261. I know where my own damn bank is.
Now, let's just all calm down. I'm sure we can straighten this out—
I've got a building remodeled at 1261 Rosella. I don't know where the hell 1216 is.
Chuck
I–I don't quite unders... [realizes] 1261?
Is this going to be a problem?
No, I'm sure it won't be.
Chuck
Um, Mr. Commissioner, I apologize. Unaccountably, there appears to be a discrepancy in our filing.
UMr. Ughetta
So the correct address is the one that appeared in the notice of intent, the 1261?
Chuck
It would seem so. Uh, it-it-it—We'd like to request an–an adjournment of just a few minutes so that we can amend the filing to reflect the correct address.
UMr. Ughetta
Well, I-I can give you an adjournment, uh, but... I don't think we can get you back in today.
If I may, when do you think you might be able to schedule us?
UMr. Ughetta
I'm being told by staff that they've already done the research for 1216 Rosella Drive. Our folks are going to have to go back to square one on the new address.
Chuck
If we could obtain a provisional agreement today, to allow the branch to open—
UMr. Ughetta
No, no. With all due respect, it's up to you folks to submit accurate paperwork. Maybe next time, double-check.
[Chuck and Ernesto visit the copy shop where Jimmy forged the Mesa Verde documents. Lance, the night clerk, has just been bribed by Jimmy to deny that he was there]
LLance
When the guy [Ernesto] showed me the picture, I thought maybe. But now that I'm seeing it again... ah, sorry, don't know what to tell you. Guess I was wrong.
Chuck
Son, listen carefully. I am an officer of the court investigating a felony.
Chuck
No, no I'm not. I—I—I'm a...
Mr. McGill, maybe we better get you home.
Chuck
Ernesto, do not speak to me as if I were a child. I'm fine.
[Chuck begins to be affected by his electromagnetic hypersensitivity]
Chuck
[to Lance] I am not a police officer. I am an attorney. And I have a moral and legal obligation to get to the bottom of this matter.
LLance
The bottom of what?
Chuck
Forgery. Fraud. Falsifying evidence...
[Chuck's electromagnetic hypersensitivity becomes worse]
Chuck
...breaking and entering.
LLance
[to Ernie] This guy, is he okay?
Chuck
There's nothing wrong with me!
Mr. McGill, maybe we should just take a break and—
Chuck
Ernie, shut up! [to Lance] You think about the choice you're making!
LLance
I already told you he wasn't here. What do you want me to say?
Chuck
I want you to speak the truth! I know he was here! I know what he did! Tell me what you told Ernesto! Stop trying to change your story!
CCustomer
Excuse me, sorry. How do we get this to do 11x14?
Chuck
[to customer] No, excuse me, we are having a conversation here!
LLance
[to customer] You have to switch it to tray four, it's easier if I show you. [to Chuck] Look... Dude, okay. I-I don't want any problems here, so just... [Lance leaves the counter; to Ernie] Get him out of here or I'm going to call the cops, okay?
Chuck
Do not walk away from me! We are not finished here!
LLance
I am done talking to you, man!
[Chuck tries to walk after Lance, but is overcome by the electromagnetic fields. He passes out and falls down, hitting his head on the counter.]
[Chuck and Jimmy are at their mother's bedside in a Cicero hospital]
Seriously, Chuck, we gotta eat. Mom will be okay for a few minutes. It's been three days, it could be three more. [gets up] Okay? Let's go, buddy.
Chuck
Jimmy, you wanna eat, go eat.
I'll bring you something. Uh, roast beef, no tomato, Italian on the side, alright? Okay, be right back.
[Chuck breaks down crying when Jimmy leaves. Mrs. McGill suddenly stirs]
Chuck
Mom? Mom!
Chuck
No, Mom. It's me, Chuck!
Chuck
No, Mom. It's-
[Mrs. McGill flatlines. A nurse comes in to check]
Chuck
So this is it, then?
NNurse
I'm sorry. She has that DNR. Is your brother in the building? We can use the intercom-
Chuck
No.
NNurse
Charles, is there anyone you want us to call?
[Chuck shakes his head. Later, Jimmy finds him in the lobby with his sandwiches]
Chuck, where's Mom? What happened?
Chuck
She's gone.
What?! When- how did-? [beat] Did she wake up? Did she say anything?
Chuck
...No.
