Margaret and Todd work two seemingly unrelated cases, only to discover a key piece of information in the details of Todd's humorously boring civil case could help Margaret's high-profile client
When Todd reunites with a childhood friend with a checkered past, he convinces Margaret to represent him in a minor legal case.
Margaret and Todd work to bring justice to an Olympic athlete who lost his leg in a plane crash resulting from a defective aircraft.
