She'll have to work that much longer to get her name on the door
23 November 2017
A high school junior student had a little chat in a cafe with the owner. After (not) finishing her coffee she got out and she was killed by a hit-and-run. The victim, a straight As student who need a little tutoring only in chemistry, was in a neighborhood far from her home because she paid a visit to a local librarian who helped her out in doing homework. After the car had been found out, detectives realized it was driven by a troubled guy suffering from schizophrenia; at his shanty apartment he lied on the bed stabbed seven times. The grieving mother may have freaked out after all the efforts made to put his son on the right way: he heard voices that told him to kill people (the first time he kicked a person to death, but he was acquitted). The justification pursued by the defense attorney is an unbelievable one, but the jury could feel pity for the defendant.

An episode in which we see the friction between Serena and the defense attorney (Charissa Chamorro), an old acquaintance (not so close anyway) ready to do anything to take Serena place in the near future.
