Changing Lanes Page #3

So she won't move to Oregon!

So she won't take the boys!

So they'll move into the house

so I can be a father!

Just 20 minutes!

Can you give me that?

I wish I could, man.

I wish I could.

I wish I could.

Wait a minute!

Wait. Do you have the file?

Doyle, you got the file?

Wait a minute! Doyle!

Wait a minute!

Doyle, do you have the file?

- I'm sorry!

- I don't have your file!

- I threw it away!

- What do you mean?

I threw it away!

- Hey, guys.

- How did it go?

Well, Kaufman did some tap dancing.

But once I filed the papers,

what was he gonna do?

The guy squeaked like a mouse.

I love it when they squeak.

We have the power of appointment,

so God's on our side.

Hey, I'm going over

to Southeast Harbor tomorrow...

to look at a boat.

Hinckley 51 .

Wow. Fifty-one footer, huh?

It's a tough life.

You are not quite ready

for a 51-footer yet.

Oh, right.

But as soon as

I take delivery on her...

I want you and Cynthia

to have China Bird.

- Steven, I don't know what to say.

- You don't have to say anything.

I'm saying thank you to my partner

and my son-in-law...

and my friend.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Thank you.

So I have a couple more interviews

I gotta bang out...

down the hall, so I'm gonna...

go back down there

and do some work.

Great.

All right, well, so long.

- See you.

- All right.

- How are you doing, Kate?

- Hey, Gavin.

- So, how'd it go?

- In and out. Easy-peasy.

- What kind of people have we here?

- This is Sarah Windsor.

Hello. It's a pleasure.

- Tyler Cohen.

- How are you? Who's up first?

- Miss Windsor.

- Sarah Windsor, come on down!

Have a seat, please.

- And who are you?

- Sarah Windsor.

Not the name tag. Who are you,

as in what have you been doing?

Why do you wanna be a lawyer?

Why do you wanna work here?

Well, I went to St. Paul's.

I did my undergraduate work at Yale.

And now, I'm finishing at Yale Law.

I clerked last summer for

the California State Supreme Court.

I chose law because my father was

district attorney of San Francisco.

Really?

I've always been interested

in the law and politics...

and I was an economics major.

This firm is particularly strong...

in municipal finance law

and public policy...

which is the area

I'm hoping to explore.

Although, I gotta tell you...

I do have an eye on public service.

I know how much this firm

supports pro bono work...

and I'd love to help on a

death penalty defense for the poor.

Why didn't I just

give him my insurance card?

I'm sorry?

I'm sorry. It's not your fault.

It's my fault.

Excuse me. Gavin?

This really weird fax

Just came in.

- I think you should look at it.

- Okay. Thank you.

Do you know what it means?

Michelle, I gotta talk to you.

Just a second.

What the hell--

Read this!

It's from the file.

He's got the file.

Help me.

Can I have a...

- bourbon, straight up?

- Sure.

Can I have a twist, please?

I'm not a partner here.

That actually doesn't bother me.

Partners have to bring in business.

I just gotta do my job.

If I don't like it here,

I can leave.

- What's not to like?

- Watching you become one of them.

I always thought you were cutting

a pretty big corner...

by convincing a dying old man

to sign a power of appointment.

- It wasn't like that.

- Are you sure it wasn't like that?

Of course I'm sure.

What?

He was in pretty bad shape

when I went to see him.

I mean, it was--

May be he didn't--

May be?

-May be he didn't understand exactly.

-Didn't understand exactly?

He didn't know exactly

what he was signing.

Walter and Steven said that...

Simon put too much faith

in his friends, and...

the board was in his pocket, and

it was better for the foundation...

if we could just help

control and manage the money.

Delano said that?

- Doesn't that sound reasonable?

- What's that supposed to mean?

- Doesn't that sound reasonable?

- What's that supposed to mean?

That means that

without this file...

you'll be in more trouble than

your father-in-law and his partner.

You're the attorney of record.

You could actually

go to jail for this.

You need that file.

What am I gonna do?

There's this guy.

He helps out

with things that need...

helping out.

Like what?

Like things. Like...

getting people to do things

you want them to do...

when they don't necessarily

want to do them.

Where is he?

I need help.

Did you really believe

that it served Simon Dunne...

to sign those papers when

he was too weak to read them?

I wouldn't have done it otherwise.

Yes.

- Yes, I did.

- Do you want what's right?

Of course I do.

And what's right is your job,

your wife...

your life?

Where is he?

Don't go anywhere.

- Hey, where are you going?

- I'm going out.

I'm in a bar.

You want company?

That champagne feeling

gave you a hangover.

Are you drinking?

What happened in court today?

I'm in a bar.

What's that tell you?

It tells me that you're really

angry, and that anger...

has gotten you into the one place

in the worId you shouIdn't be.

Come on.

Leave that bar.

Come on.

Leave the bar.

I'm sorry.

Can I have a Coke, please?

Come on in.

Look, you tell Roberta...

that I said one cookie

before lunch is okay.

Get better.

- Mr. Banek.

- Are you Mr. Finch?

- How are you?

- How are you doing?

- You look nervous.

- Yeah, a little bit.

Don't be.

Have a seat.

Who's your God?

- Now, or hall of fame?

- Whenever.

Well, I'd say it's the guy

who did the Volkswagen ad.

The one where the cop is giving the

speeding ticket to a guy in a Bug.

Classic.

Doyle Gipson.

Shouldn't have told you

he was in insurance.

Makes it too easy.

I tell my clients...

""Never tell anyone anything

a bout yourself.''

Yeah. Here's his

state insurance license.

And that gives me

his social security number...

which gives me everything.

- You don't f***ing know.

- I do know.

- It's the one with the little kids.

- The little kids, yeah.

He's sittin' around, you know.

I don't know what he is.

Like, an Indian kid?

Cute little black kid.

Like, ""I'm Tiger Woods.''

""I'm Tiger Woods.''

You had a fender bender,

and the other guy's going postal.

- That's not the way to do things.

- I don't wanna kill any body, you know?

I've just...

never done this kind

of thing before.

What kind of thing is that?

I just want my file back, you know.

You'll get your file back.

How, exactly?

It's like the dog collar that

gives a little electric shock...

when the dog barks.

You don't kill the dog. You just

want the dog to settle down.

Now we're torturing an animal?

I mean--

We're all set.

May I?

Is there any other way to--

Well, sure.

Call him up

and just be nice to him.

All right, do it.

- Are you guys in advertising?

- Yeah. You too?

No. But--

I hope you don't mind, but I was

intrigued by your conversation.

I just thought

you were in advertising.

I wanna give you my dream version

of a Tiger Woods commercial, okay?

- By all means.

- Go ahead.
