Moot Court (S01E09)

S01E09

In this notable episode penned by John Jay Osborn, Jr., the original author of the 1974 film's screenplay, first-year law students engage in a moot court competition, where they face off in teams of two before a prestigious panel, including Kingsfield. Winning this competition holds significant prestige, as Kingsfield himself once triumphed in it. Teams are randomly assigned, pairing Hart with Logan, who develop a pseudo-romantic connection, Bell with the newly introduced Raymond Livingston, and Anderson with Gagarian, among others. Livingston, a motivated student from a disadvantaged background and supported by the military, struggles with the lackadaisical attitude of his teammate, Bell, who shows little interest in winning.
