Explicații Wikipedia: Billy McBride is a washed-up lawyer who spends more time drinking than he does meeting his clients or with his estranged family. In the meantime, Cooperman McBride, the firm he helped found and build alongside Donald Cooperman, is now a Goliath - bigger and more powerful than ever before. Michelle McBride (Billy's ex-wife and the mother of their 16-year-old daughter Denise) and Callie Senate, senior lawyers at Cooperman McBride, are unhappy with their junior associate Lucy Kittridge's stuttering in court, but Callie is unable to fire her because this would open the firm up to litigation. Patty Solis-Papagian, a DUI lawyer, unsuccessfully tries to convince Billy to represent her neighbor Rachel Kennedy on a small case involving Borns Technology, one of Cooperman McBride's biggest clients. Rachel's brother Ryan Larson is said to have committed suicide by blowing up a boat that belonged to his employer Borns Tech, but Rachel does not believe this story and wishes to sue them for wrongful death. Billy agrees to take the case and visits Ryan's widow Gina and son Jason, but Gina does not agree with Rachel's suspicions. After he leaves, Gina calls Cooperman McBride. Billy finds two fishermen who witnessed the explosion that killed Ryan. Cooperman anticipates that Billy will file a wrongful death lawsuit and asks Michelle to have Lucy start drafting a response. Billy asks Brittany Gold, a prostitute he is familiar with, to work as his legal assistant. When Billy files the lawsuit, Cooperman insists that Callie argue for the dismissal of the case in court, once again overriding Michelle's objections regarding his choice. While driving Denise back to her mother's house, Billy is pulled over and assaulted by a cop, and comes to in lockup. Throughout the episode, Billy is stalked by a man in black.
