[After reading Harry's file of McClaren Youth Hall] I'm really sorry you had to go through that, Dad.

Scenes with Madeline Bosch 6
That's why I like In-N-Out: you're in, you're out. [To Anita] Any luck?
I've left messages.
This is way better, Dad. Trust me.You love In-N-Out.
The Animal Fries. What's better than that?
Yeah, I know, but...
But, Maddie, you've never even been here before.
It's true, but everyone at school keeps talking about it: Danny Meyer, first Shake Shack in L.A. Any relation to Oscar?
Who? Sorry. I'm not up on my trendy eateries.
Philistine.
I'm a throwback. Check my fur.
I love that bracelet, Anita.
Oh, thanks, Maddie.
Thrift store catch. It's so retro.
Well, actually, it's not...
What are you going to get?
I don't know. A shake, I guess.
Mom...
Hey. How'd it go?
I just talked to Reggie. He's still in China. He tried to call you.
What? When? What did he say?
They took away his passport, so he can't get out of the country.
Wait. What?
What is going on? And please don't say "nothing."
Honey, I don't know.
What did you do?
Nothing.
I am so sick of this!
Okay, I haven't talked with him yet. We've been working through some things, so, I mean, it's...
Complicated? Is that your way of saying you're splitting up?
[Sighs] No.
So you don't want to tell me. Fine. There's nothing to tell. Go ahead and screw up your relationship with Reggie, just don't mess up mine. [Madeline walks up stairs]
Madeline... [Madeline slams door]
[Browsing albums at a vinyl records store] Come on. [Madeline shows him Art Pepper Today album] Art Pepper. Hm.
He's got a song on this album that he wrote for his daughter. He wrote it because he wasn't around much when she was growing up. My dad used to play it for me.
So you can relate? Song's about you?
Used to be. Not anymore.
I'd like to meet him.
Art Pepper? He's dead. [Both laugh]
No, your dad. Mister Old School.
Really?
Yeah. We should all grab a bite sometime.
He's not the most social person.
I suck at small talk myself, so maybe we'll just sit in silence.
[Chuckles] In that case, he might actually like you.
And that'd be a surprise? [They kiss and he takes album from her'] I'm gonna get this.
You don't have a turntable.
I'll buy one. [Pecks her on cheek and walks away]
[Walking through security detector] Yeah, right there on the belt. Your boss says Chandler's chances of getting the tape tossed are slim to none.
I'd say closer to none, but it's the judge's call.
If she succeeds?
We've got the wiretaps, spy cam footage. We'll be fine.
[Madeline stands up from bench and walks with them] Hey, Mads. I thought you weren't coming.
Changed my mind. I want to see Chandler in action. [They get seated and she looks back and whispers referring to Heather seated in back row of spectating section] What's she doing here?
Let's find out. [Walks up to her, to Heather] Thought you didn't believe in our legal system.
That woman and her FBI lover boy... they got my husband killed. Make me a believer, Detective. Put her away. [Grabs backpack] You want to check it?
I do. [Opens backpack and searches it, holds up pamphlet]
Should go ahead and take one. Help you see through all the bullshit lies and happy talk. [Judge announces in session of court] Show's starting, Detective. Better go sit with the other sheep.
Create any sort of disturbance in here, you're going to jail.
[Madeline sets down bowls of Fettuccini Alfredo] Is this, uh... Fettuccini Alfredo. I'm impressed.
I made the pasta noodles myself.
I'm very impressed.
It's- it's easy as making it from the box.
[Looking beyond her to kitchen counter] Yeah. That can't be true.
Eyes on the food. Dad, there's nothing to see over there.
What am I gonna do when you go back to school? Learn to cook?
Fat chance. I ran into Honey Chandler today. She wants me back next summer.
That what you want?
I'm not sure what I want.
Second thoughts about the law?
About everything.
You'll figure it out. Hope so. Hey, Mads, you will.
Did you go through this when you were my age?
No. I knew what I had to do.
I wish I did.
It's different, Mads. You have choices. I didn't.
[Walks out to porch to Harry cooking steaks] Earth to Dad. Don't burn mine.
Charred steak is the one thing I can make. Check the potatoes?
There's a fine line between charred and burned.
I would never cross that line.
...
All I'm saying is, it'll be really cool to see her do her thing in court.
It's a murder case, Mads, not a sporting event.
I know that. What, I can't admire a strong woman who's really good at what she does?
Trying to get guilty people off, I find that hard to admire.
Here we go again. She's just doing her job.
Just to be clear, Money Chandler's representing a killer, someone who planned the death of her husband. Chandler is manipulating the system so that her client doesn't have to answer for her crime. That's not cool.
No, I get it. When she's representing you, she's cool, and when she's representing anybody else, she's not.
