Do we even want to watch a show where Jill and Roger arentJill and Roger?
Do not do this to us,For the People!
Im talking about who Jill and Roger come to represent in the major Case of the Week.
The raids are reckless and unconstitutional.
So, Jill has Sandra look into the most recent one.
Its not like someone would put him in that cell and leave him in there, right?
When Sandra and the guard open Holding Room 3, they come upon a grisly sight.
Brian Torres is unconscious on the ground, covered in blood.
Something horrible happened here.
There is footage of the entire thing.
We only see short clips of it, but it is more than enough.
Jill wants justice for Brian Torres.
She doesnt care that the arresting officer, Agent Keener, was fired.
She wants the government and Keener to pay for what they did to Torres.
She pleads with Roger to take on the case, but he will not.
Attorneys Office is forced to take action.
Jill cannot believe it.
Roger Gunn is arguing a case against the U.S. government.
What is this world?
That, my friends, is a buzzkill.
Theyll have Keener plead guilty to a civil charge and the criminal charges will be dropped.
In short, no jail time.
It seems like a best case scenario…until Jill brings the deal to Keener.
He claims there was no intent to torture Brian Torres.
Its horrible, but it is the truth.
He believes in his work, hes not just part of the system, and he made a mistake.
He needs Jill to fight for him.
Roger, visibly disturbed by what he has seen, wants justice for Brian Torres.
Jill believes this was a tragic accident.
They are both emotionally attached to this case and they take it out on one another.
With the plea deal off the table, the emotions between Roger and Jill spill into the courtroom.
Theyre both fighting to the death for their clients, even if it means risking their friendship.
No one wants to follow that act, but Jill must.
Keener is found not guilty.
Duh, you guys, Roger and Jills relationship is bigger than any case.
None of the other storylines are as compelling as the saga of Roger & Jill & the DEA.
Jays dad simply made a dumb decision.
It takes a heart-to-heart with the wise Tina Krissman for Jay to realize that parents are human, too.
Seth and Allison will hook up before the season is over, right?
This time, its animals.
Because Kate Littlejohn wouldnt dare get emotionally attached to furry critters, Roger gives her an animal smuggling case.
She is now The Animal Lady just dont tell her that.
After all the Mom and Dad drama, that scene is truly the gift we deserve.
