Oh, man... That was some fun crazy ass junkie arrogant narcissistic lawyer! Poor Maia... But the scene where she puts on her swag goggles from the previous episode was the perfect ending for her!
The judge was hilarious, too, watching him progressively break was so much fun!
Diane in the snake pit was a segment outrageously underused, though... That had the potential for so much more.
Curious the place to throw axes, good for Lucca. The trial lawyer reminded me of the Shark series, "the truth is relative", "adjusts the facts to your speech", the important thing is to win, the how, is step two
Excellent episode, shows what happens when Trumpism enters a respectable institute (like the court of law) and tears everything apart. Truth doesn't matter, 'facts and reason' is useless, and remember Michael Sheen's character quote 'Stories beat facts, always' . A guy like Roy Cohn, whose spirit lives inside Sheen's character and in Trump's White House as well, can destroy peoples' lives for his own benefit, then deny doing it. If you' re looking for law drama, well, it is OK, I guess. But most of all, this is high-level political commentary of what was happening during Trump in office. An iconic episode.

Michael Sheen was just ridiculous here. Fentanyl lolipops? Suborning perjury?
The best part was when the judge cracked.
