Amico: "Talia. God damn it answer your text's. I appreciate you're the boss but you can't just bloody ignore me when it suits you"

Amico: "TALIA!"

Talia: "What is it Amico?"

Amico: "You haven't worked in months, and I've been sorting your bills - which I would like to mention are three months late... Anyway, it doesn't look good. You need to take a god damn case!"

Talia: "I'm not in the mood, I'm tired. Leave me be"

Amico: "I even went and found a case I know you'll like. Plus, I would really like a paycheck. You might be the rich lawyer, but I'm not"

Talia: "What's the case?"

Amico: "A teenage girl, aged 16 was attacked by an Uber driver. A friend she called to the scene in a desperate attempt was also murdered, and a second unknown body was found in hidden trunk"

Talia: "The girl got away?"

Amico: "Yes, and her mother wants to sue uber. Girls name is Leigh. She attends Dyewood school in north London"

Talia: "I'm not taking a case to help sue uber, I'm not judge Judy"

Amico: "Fine, well how about this. A girl, named Leah in the same classes as Leigh went on a rampage and killed three of her friends. The police are investigating whether it has anything to do with the first case"

Talia: "Who would I be defending this Leah against?"

Amico: "Jordan, her only surviving friend"

Talia: "Sounds interesting. I'll take it, only because I'm curious. Don't ever try and force me into a case again, okay?"

Amico: "Yes, perfect. I'll contact the girls foster family. Her parents died when she was a girl, which she admitted to doing. She's being held in prison for the time being"

Talia: "Get's more interesting by the second. Talk to you later"

Unknown Number: "Hello?"

Talia: "Hello, who's this?"

Unknown Number: "Talia Wells, defence attorney?"

Talia: "If you have a job, please contact my assistant Amico. This is my personal number"

Unknown Number: "It's Leah, you took my case a few days ago. Right?"

Talia: "Oh, uhm... Yes, how did you get my number? Hold on a second I'm going to save this number. Is it your personal phone?"

Leah: "Yes"

Talia: "Okay, well. Is there something you needed? I was going to be coming into the jail tomorrow to talk to you. How come you are out?"

Leah: "I'm out on bail. My foster family is wealthy"

Talia: "Okay, that's good..."

Leah: "I killed them"

Talia: "Excuse me?"

Leah: "I did it, I murdered them all. So, you just need to work out how to keep me out of prison knowing the truth"

Talia: "Can I please talk to your mother?"

Leah: "You have no need to talk to her, this is my case. I hope there's not an issue"

Talia: "How old are you again?"
