- ADA Samantha Maroun: Nolan, I swear I didn't shoot him.
- Executive ADA Nolan Price: So then why not just hand over the damn gun?
- ADA Samantha Maroun: Because I don't have it!
- Executive ADA Nolan Price: What do you mean you don't have it?
- ADA Samantha Maroun: I threw it in the river. I don't have it. I was just so angry. I didn't know how to process what had happened. The only thing that made sense to me in that moment was to confront the bastard. I wanted to see him. I wanted to scare him. So I grabbed my gun, and I started walking towards his apartment, which is insane. It's crazy, I know that. But after a few blocks, I realized it was a bad idea, a terrible idea. So I went on a walk instead. I ended up on the promenade, and I threw my damn gun in the East River.
- Executive ADA Nolan Price: Why?
- ADA Samantha Maroun: Because I was afraid of what I might do with it.
- ADA Samantha Maroun: Just got a text from Paymor. Julia wants to accept the plea. But there is something you should know. After the meeting this afternoon, Julia and I talked for a minute. Uh, I told her I felt awful about what had happened to her. She got very emotional. She said, uh... she said that she felt like a fool for believing in his innocence. And, uh, then she said something she didn't mean to say. And she was just so emotional that, uh... well, she accidentally confessed to waiting outside Carter's building prior to killing him.
- Executive ADA Nolan Price: Which means she lied on the stand.
- ADA Samantha Maroun: Yeah.
- Executive ADA Nolan Price: And she and Carter didn't just, um, didn't just happen to cross paths that night.
- ADA Samantha Maroun: No. Well, you were right. This was premediated. This was an assassination. On paper, anyway.
- Executive ADA Nolan Price: On paper?
- ADA Samantha Maroun: Based on the letter of the law.
- Executive ADA Nolan Price: All right. So, how do you wanna proceed?
- ADA Samantha Maroun: Uh, are you asking what I would do or what I think you wanna do?
- Executive ADA Nolan Price: No, I'm asking for your opinion.
- ADA Samantha Maroun: Okay. Um, well, we have two choices. I mean, I can testify as a rebuttal witness and tell the jury what Julia blurted out. Or, uh, we can both pretend that I didn't hear what Julia just said, accept the damn plea, and move on.
- Executive ADA Nolan Price: I didn't ask for choices, Sam. I asked for an opinion, for your opinion.
- ADA Samantha Maroun: Yeah. Well, my opinion is we accept the damn plea. Just because we can win the case based on the letter of the law doesn't mean we need to.
