Plot summary
Will and Alicia are back in military court, this time defending a young female remote drone operator accused of murdering twelve civilians in Afghanistan. The prosecution argues that the order to fire the drone's rocket was rescinded but that the defendant fired anyway. When their only witness decides to testify for the prosecution, Will and Alicia must find a new way to persuade a military jury of their client's innocence. Lockhart/Gardner is faced with losing the cheese lobby, one of their biggest clients. The firm turns to Eli in the hopes that he can convince the FDA to reinstate the existing food pyramid and promote cheese consumption.
In his counterpart for the fruit lobby, Eli finds an opponent who always seems to be one step ahead of him. The state's investigation into Will Gardner heats up when Peter assigns the case to Wendy Scott-Carr, his former rival for the state's attorney's job and a woman who will apparently stop at nothing to weed out corruption.
