Jimmy and Chuck in “Unfinished Business”

[Jimmy notices his billboard story in Chuck's house]

You think this is the return of Slippin' Jimmy, but it's not.

[indulgingly] Alright.

You think the billboard thing was unethical, but it was promotion. It was advertising, that's all.

Which wasn't even allowed until five Supreme Court justices went completely bonkers in Bates v. State Bar of Arizona.

A-ha!

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.

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.

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?

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.

Alright.

From here on out, I'm gonna play by the rules.

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.

...Okay. We'll see.
