S01E07
In this episode, the spotlight is on Tom Clayton, the member of the study group known for his "photographic memory." The narrative kicks off with Kingsfield intimidating Tom to the point where he becomes speechless and paralyzed with fear. To help him regain his confidence, Kingsfield instructs him to simply say "da da." Meanwhile, Tom's wife, Karen, reveals that she is pregnant, adding to his stress as he grapples with the challenges of law school. After a drinking spree leads to him falling behind in class, Tom participates in an all-night study session where his classmates mimic Kingsfield. This support helps him transform his memorized knowledge into articulate concepts, allowing him to perform well in class the following day.
