Marcie represents a sexual assault victim in a human rights case after the police botch the investigation. Velma, Avery, and Rev. Cliff Crawley, work together to right a 20-year-old wrong.

Marcie defends a young Olympic-level swimmer in a case of defamation of character after she implicates her coach in the death of her best friend and teammate. Avery takes on a wrongful conviction case against a seemingly untouchable opponent.

Marcie's absence leaves a power vacuum at her firm; when Vivian jumps in, her actions threaten their case against a doctor accused of sterilizing patients, causing tensions to reach a boiling point.
