Epilogue
TWO YEARS LATER
Lead Counsel: Motion to adjourn work early so I can see my wife sooner.
Rory: Stop changing your name in my phone!!!
Rory: I have a brief to finish. I’ll be home by seven. Eight at the latest.
Flynn: Formal petition for seven p.m. submitted.
Rory: Petition reviewed. The Court is inclined to grant the request, contingent upon dinner and one game of strip chess.
Flynn: I’d like to amend the agreement to no chess. Counselor finds the motivation suspect considering the outcome of previous matches.
Rory: You cheat.
Flynn: Describing how I’ll fuck you after I win is not cheating. It’s proven to be a foolproof strategy.
Flynn: And my favorite hobby.
Flynn: Aside from actually fucking you.
Flynn: Which is more of a privilege than an interest.
Rory: Flattery is admissible, although the Court suspects it's an attempt to prejudice the jury.
Flynn: If I were trying to prejudice the jury, I’d tell them that we need to open the box of condoms that I bought four years ago.
Flynn: Dr. Harris called. Prior order was successfully reversed. Temporary injunctions will be necessary during proceedings.
Flynn: Unless you’re ready to add a third member to our firm …
Rory: Fourth, counting Finch.
Rory: I’ll be home by six.
