Dissatisfied that Alicia wins a not guilty verdict for a young Army reservist accused of murdering his wife, Cary arranges to have the case re-tried in military court. In military court, the trial procedures are different and the law is presented differently, hindering Alicia. But Alicia has a plan and calls Cary to the stand as a witness as a way of producing evidence that gives a break in the case and saves her client. Meanwhile as the campaign for state's attorney kicks into full gear, Childs resorts to dirty tricks in an effort to mar Peter's reputation.
