Burton has his next laser eye operation, so Nick takes him in for recovery, but he proves to be a nightmare patient and keeps nagging about a merger deal complicated by environmental issues. James' nephew Levi (for whom he has guardianship) is expelled for refusing to identify the gang kids who beat him up, yet is murdered by the gang afterward. Alvin feels guilty and starts drinking again. Filling in for both, Nick drowns in court cases on three fronts.
