Plot summary
The divorcing Bobby and Lindsay, plus Rebecca and Lucy, have left the firm, leaving only Eugene, Ellenor, Jimmy, and Jamie. Helen Gamble has also left the district attorney's office. Ellenor defends Brad Stanfield, accused of killing his wife and unborn son, who insists his wife committed suicide. Eugene and Jimmy defend Aisha Crenshaw, a woman whose two-year-old daughter died in a drive-by shooting and who has now shot a known crack dealer on her street. Shifty Alan Shore comes to Ellenor looking for a job after he was fired for embezzlement, and he uses insurance fraud to coerce his accuser into dropping the charges. Jimmy has to find a way to close his defense of Aisha without incurring the judge's wrath after the judge refused to let Jimmy and Eugene defend her on self-defense or defense of persons grounds.
