Plot Overview

After the firm successfully defends an accused murderer, the man admits to them that he did indeed do it, which leads them to defend another man arrested for the crime. Throughout the course of the second trial, the lawyers keep after their former client, hoping that he'll do the right thing and publicly admit he's the killer, but the overly cocky man refuses. Neil gets so upset that he's willing to break lawyer/client confidentiality and give up law in order to save the wrongfully accused man.
