Jimmy answers no, having gotten the reaction he wanted from him all along. He regains his composure and, to break the silence in the room, asks Jimmy if he has any more questions. He desperately urges the panel to put an end to Jimmy's legal career but stops in mid-sentence as he realizes that he has exposed his true feelings.

He angrily lists Jimmy's faults-stealing from their parents when he was nine (' Inflatable'), defecating through a sunroof (' Marco'), orchestrating the billboard stunt (' Hero'), falsifying the Mesa Verde files (' Fifi') and then bribing the copy shop clerk to lie about it (' Nailed')-and expresses his frustration over the fact that he didn't stop Jimmy when he had the chance long ago, instead of taking him into his own firm. When Alley argues that Chuck's mental illness is a non-issue, comparing him to a schizophrenic, Chuck snaps, claiming he is not crazy and delivers a rant making it clear to a stunned audience that he resents Jimmy and is desperate to get him disbarred. Chuck tells her that Jimmy brought her to attend the hearing as a psychological tactic, and asks her to stay so she can see 'what's what.' Outside the courtroom, Kim tells Jimmy that Rebecca is going to hate him for what he is about to do. Rebecca explains that Jimmy told her about Chuck's EHS, and expresses sympathy regarding his condition. After asking the committee for a recess, he approaches his ex-wife. Chuck is stunned when he sees Rebecca enter the courtroom and greet Jimmy. He also denies hating Jimmy, claiming he doesn't want Jimmy to toy with the rule of law. Meanwhile, as Chuck and Howard enter the courthouse, Chuck bumps into a man on the stairwell the man is revealed to be Huell Babineaux.Д¬huck is sworn in and questioned by Alley about the circumstances leading up to his recording of Jimmy's confession.

Jimmy is told by Francesca that someone's flight is delayed, causing he and Kim to use a legal maneuver to stall for time.

Under Kim's cross-examination, Howard tries to claim that Chuck blocked Jimmy's advancement at HHM to avoid an appearance of nepotism, but is forced to admit that he himself is the son of HHM's founding partner. Howard testifies first, giving his account of Jimmy's break-in. Chuck dismisses Howard's concerns, saying that meting out justice against Jimmy is more important.ДЄs Jimmy's bar hearing begins, Kim and the prosecutor, Robert Alley, make their opening statements, with Kim asserting that the real story is of the feud between Jimmy and Chuck. Howard also reminds Chuck that by testifying, he is putting the reputation of HHM on the line. Howard is reluctant to let Chuck testify during the hearing, telling him that they can present a solid-enough case based on the testimony of himself and Chuck's private investigator, Dave. Kim assures Paige that Mesa Verde will not suffer any blowback.Д¬huck and Howard visit the courtroom where Jimmy's hearing before the New Mexico Bar Association will be held. Both Kevin and Paige disbelieve the claims, with Kevin being certain that Chuck is smearing Kim rather than admitting a mistake.

Jimmy visits Caldera on the pretense of checking on a goldfish, asking if he knows someone with a 'light touch' who is willing to do a job Caldera replies that he does, as long as he does not have to fit in a tight space. Jimmy wants to tell her about Chuck's EHS to salvage the evening, but he vehemently refuses. He snatches the phone and throws it to the floor.
