What are we gonna do about Francesca?
[clears throat] Do about her? What?
Yeah, how much notice should we give her? Two weeks? [Jimmy turns to look at her] Well, we’re not doing her any favors by keeping her in the dark. She should start looking.
So, you wanna fire Francesca?
[shrugs] I don’t want to, but I don’t need her for more than filing and getting coffee, and I can do that myself.
We just hired her. I like her.
While we’re on the subject, we need to talk about the overhead on this place.
No! Kim, no!
This office is set up for two legal practices, and now there’s only… one! I don’t need all this space; I only have one client!
It’s a huge client!
I looked into it, and… breaking the lease will cost a hell of a lot less than ten months’ rent.
Look, we didn’t go through all of this just to give up everything after one day of suspension. One day!
It’s not everything. It’s an office. Four walls and a door. Why waste money on something we don’t need?
[pause] As far as I’m concerned, nothing’s changed, alright? I’ll hold up my end, you hold up yours. Fifty-fifty.
So you’re gonna keep paying for half a law office even though you’re not practicing law?
Call it aspirational thinking.
Okay, but how are you gonna pay for it?
[inhales deeply] The day I don’t show up with my half, that’s the day we’ll talk about closing this place.
…That’s fair, I guess.
