Synopsis:

Nick Fallin and Lulu Archer find themselves in the middle of a tense hostage situation involving one of their clients, Melinda Tralins, whose drug addiction causes her to lose custody of her newborn. After being given a second chance, Melinda reverts back to using drugs and takes her baby hostage when Legal Services comes to remove the baby from her home. Meanwhile, James Mooney fights for Todd Wooley, a 17-year-old boy who wants custody of his baby, who had been given up for adoption without his consent.
