As the case heats up, Mason finds a literal smoking gun.
around midway through “Chapter Eleven,” when Mason pays a visit to the Judge to see about granting the Gallardo boys some extra protection in jail — our defendants aren’t making new friends in there. The Judge first scoffs at Mason’s idealism, but by the end of the conversation, he grants the Gallardo boys some extra protection. “I can’t say too many of your ilk come out on top,” he says. “But I’ve often admired their fight. There was little of that idealism when I began practicing in the 1890s.
But where the Gallardo brothers lack influence, they have an abundance of chutzpah in their corner. Our legal eagle Della Street, always coming in clutch with the heaters, hands Mason the California rule book with just the right penal code for this little skirmish. It buys them three weeks in the pre-trial period, which is good but not enough to get them out from under the wire.
Fresh off a quiet night in with Anita St. Pierre and a pack of Turkish cigarettes , Della spies the program left over from Camilla Nygaard’s stupid L.A. Philharmonic fundraiser party, and reckons her girlboss game-rec-game moment with this lady is a thread she and Mason can tug on for reliable intel on the McCutcheons. They find Miss Nygaard at her fabulously mod pool, giving marching orders to her lawyer Melville “Phippsy” Phipps , between laps, something about securing new oil leases and such.
Back at the office, Mason, Street, and Drake review what they’ve got so far and try to assemble a narrative they can run with. Mason’s eyes are already fixed on building his case around Detective Holcomb. We last saw everyone’s favorite dirty cop arriving home in the morning after another night of criminal activity and boat, or “perps and paperwork,” as he affectionately tells his wife.
“You’ve been digging into my son’s affairs,” he continues. “I’d like you to consider finding another hole to dig in […] anyone that isn’t full of mud to drag his good name through.” Lydell is no fool; he knows his son’s “good name” was just a fabricated “version” of many Brooks McCutcheons. “Is there a version that includes Noreen Lawson?” Mason asks.
