When Claire’s boarding school mistress, Fiona, takes the stand, a shock revelation changes the course of the trial. Jury room dynamics are tested as tensions reach boiling point.
When Nathan lies under oath, an enraged Kate refuses Colby’s advice not to testify but will the secret between Kate and her sister explode under the pressure of the revelations?

New details come to light during three witness testimonies, while Colby gets creative in undermining the prosecution's theory. Meanwhile, things go from bad to worse for Joey.
It's Meredith’s turn to present her case but things are not looking good for the defence, until Colby finds some new evidence that could turn things around.
Colby convinces Patrick to stay the course, promising his new evidence will strengthen their case, but Meredith’s decision to put Sasha on the stand may change the trial entirely.
Meredith’s decision to put Sasha on the stand backfires when Colby delivers some damning evidence, leaving the Jury shellshocked and ready to make some big life decisions.
After heated deliberations, the jury finally reach a verdict.
