Malcolm has gone off to college and Harry and Tommy decide to share the office space above the shoe store, which Jenna will continue to run.

Harry is asked, by an attorney from her previous law firm, to defend a man accused of killing his wife. The District Attorney herself tries the case and will go to any length to win.

Harry and DA Roseanna Remmick continue to butt heads while Tommy deals with the media circus surrounding the case. Oliver and Cassie are assigned some investigative work.

Adam preps Eric's daughter for her pivotal testimony as Harry worries about Cassie's impending cross-examination of a key state's witness. Meanwhile, Ollie clashes with Harry over what's in the best interest of their client while D.A. Roseanna Remmick goes to great lengths to get a guilty verdict.

Harry must practice some conflict resolution when Oliver and Cassie butt heads over an emotional case: defending a schizophrenic 17-year-old who shot and killed three college students on campus. Meanwhile, Tommy represents an owner and operator of two businesses: a "Green Mortuary" for eco-friendly burial, and an organic produce market. Unfortunately, his two businesses overlap resulting in his vegetables being fertilized with the decomposing bodies. Elsewhere, Chunhua (Irene Keng) returns to ask Adam (Nate Corddry) for help when her family's dry cleaning business is seized through eminent domain in an effort to "develop" the neighborhood.

Adam and Cassie defend a high school friend of Adam's who dressed up as Wonder Woman and carried out vigilante actions against husbands who abuse their wives. Meanwhile, Harry and Tommy take on the case of a woman who wants an escaped gorilla declared a person so she can adopt him.

After a police investigation, Harry's next door neighbor is accused of being a sex offender. While the investigation does not yield charges, it becomes grounds for her to lose her job as a teacher and she seeks out Harry's help. Meanwhile, Oliver faces off against opposing counsel, Phoebe Blake, after a couple comes to him to represent their rebellious son who dropped out of school to take a well-paying, full-time job. Back at the office, Adam must play mediator when the women who work downstairs in the shoe store revolt against Chunhua's seemingly tyrannical leadership.

"Now look, Judge. Trials are rarely about the truth. The D.A. distorts, the defense distorts. Why shouldn't the client be allowed to put in her version? After all, it is her life on the line."

In order to get her innocent client off, Harry must put her on the stand to testify, but the client has said she plans to lie in order to protect the real culprit. If Harry lets her testify, she'll be suborning perjury, and if she doesn't, her client will surely be convicted, so she must do everything in her power to get her client to tell the truth.
