Writers:: Ian Biederman

Director:: Paul Holahan

Stars:: Henry Simmons (Isaac Wright); Danielle Panabaker (Julie Stark); Sarah Carter (Madeleine Poe); Sam Page (Casey Woodland); Jeri Ryan (Jessica Devlin); James Woods (Sebastian Stark); Sophina Brown (Raina Troy)

Recurring Role:: Carlos Gomez (Mayor Manuel Delgado)

Guest Star:: Shontae Saldana (Marta Torres); Mike Gomez (Luis Flores); Kim Estes (Bailiff #1); Yvans Jourdain (Bailiff #2); Celestin Cornielle (Daniel Moreno); David Campbell (II) (Uniform); Sherri Parker Lee (Brenda Davis); Bruce Nozick (Kevin Gage); Kent Faulcon (John Ramsey); Cameron Goodman (Carol Bonner); Patrick Kilpatrick (Paul Masters); Evan Handler (Stanley Davis); George Wyner (Judge Morton); Trever O'Brien (Greg Bonner); Leighton Meester (Megan); Keisha Alfred (Laura Miller)

Right before Masters shoots the surveillance camera, he speaks directly to the authorities, saying, "If we're not on that copter in 29 minutes, everyone dies." There is even a reaction from Jessica Devlin as if she heard it. The camera is video-only and there is no open phone line in the courtroom. There is no way those words could have been heard. edit »

Jessica: Davis was right, there was someone else in the market that night. Sol Flores, her father owned the store.
Stark: Just so you know, in my mind we're making out right now. edit »
Judge Morton: (after being shot) Listen, my daughter Sarah's a junior in college, wants to spend a semester helping Iraqi war refugees in Kuwait.
Raina: That's amazing.
Judge Morton: Except I told her she couldn't go. I mean, most kids want to go to Paris, for God's sakes.
Raina: It's pretty dangerous over there.
Judge Morton: Turns out it's pretty dangerous everywhere. If I don't make it, I want you to tell Sarah that I was wrong; she should go. But whatever you do, don't tell my wife I said so. edit »
