In his office, Jimmy pores over the case files, searching for a loophole. Kim warns Jimmy that Craig didn’t cover his tracks well and refuses to play the one chip he has: the missing money. She shrugs, knowing he did what he could. Feeling guilty, he finds her in the parking garage and apologizes. Jimmy stops by HHM to collect the Kettleman case files and learns that Howard has demoted Kim to an office in a distant part of the building - loosely known the "Cornfield" in the firm - as punishment for losing the Kettlemans. With great reluctance, he takes the case. Although he does his best to point them toward Kim, the Kettlemans’ bribe has tied Jimmy's fate to theirs. She begs him to persuade the Kettlemans to return to HHM, as the plea deal she negotiated is the best they’re going to get. Betsy reminds him that they have already provided him with a substantial “retainer.” Jimmy dismisses himself to the bathroom, ostensibly to relieve himself, but in actuality, to call Kim. Jimmy is flattered, but tells them he is now specializing in elder law. They want to hire Jimmy - pending a few non-negotiable conditions. Betsy apologizes for her bluntness when they last met, and tells him that they have reconsidered Jimmy’s offer to represent Craig. The Kettlemans subsequently decide to call Jimmy, who is the middle of calling numbers for a bingo game at a retirement home. The Kettlemans refuse and fire Kim on the spot. She urges the couple to take the plea deal she’s negotiated on their behalf, which would reduce Craig’s sentence from thirty years to only sixteen months. She advises them not to take their case to trial, because their chances of winning are very low.
In HHM's conference room, Kim meets with Betsy and Craig Kettleman. She gracefully turns him down, reminding him that she’s too invested in HHM to leave. When she is impressed by the office he’s saving for his future partner, Jimmy offers her the job – after all, she did tell him she was interested in elder law. Jimmy takes Kim on a tour of a high-rise office space that he’s looking to lease. On the way to his car, Jimmy peers through a window and sees Chuck sifting through the paperwork, just as Jimmy hoped he would. Before Chuck can protest, Jimmy wheels the boxes in and promises that he’ll be back to claim them soon. Hearing this, Jimmy remembers that he has a couple of boxes of unfinished paperwork that he was hoping to store at the house. He is eager to overcome this malady and go back to work. Panting, he explains to a bewildered Jimmy that he has been exposing himself to electromagnetic fields for short amounts of time in an attempt to build up a tolerance, the same way that some people build up tolerance to poisons. He manages to last for two minutes, then races back inside. Chuck counts aloud, struggling to remain outside surrounded by the electricity that makes him so ill. Mike shakes his head, saying that it’s in someone else's hands.Ī few days later, Jimmy stops by Chuck's house and is surprised to find Chuck standing out in the yard. Jimmy is shocked, as Mike will need a good lawyer as the prime suspect for the murder of two cops. Mike brushes him off, telling Jimmy no longer requires his services. Jimmy demands to know what Mike said to Sanders. Mike leaves the police station and finds Jimmy waiting by his car.
Mike concedes that he doesn’t know what Stacey will tell them whatever she chooses to say is entirely her decision, and she’s earned the right to decide for herself. In private, Sanders apologizes for Abbasi’s behavior, but Mike waves it off – the young detective was just doing his job. Abbasi storms out of the station, but Sanders lingers behind. The detectives tell Mike they’re interviewing with Stacey the next day. Irate, Abbasi confronts Mike about stealing it, asking if there is anything he’d like to say about the notebook's contents. When Abbasi and Sanders arrive, Jimmy returns the younger detective’s notebook, claiming that he found it on the ground in the parking lot. Late at night, Jimmy and Mike wait for the Philadelphia detectives at the police station.
