On a long drawn-out case, Fuller-Carp and Hilary pass the time by playing word games. Meanwhile, Ruth lies to a dating service about her job, fearing that men will be put off by a female barrister.

Fuller-Carp becomes envious of Ruth's new gig as a legal expert on daytime TV and Hilary's being chosen for an experimental case that is to be televised.

Fuller-Carp is afraid that a fellow barrister is going to expose his ownership of a disreputable real estate company. Meanwhile, Ruth attempts to bond with a client who is going through a tough battle for child custody.

To enhance the firm's visibility and reputation, Fuller-Carp decides to hire a new associate who is a graduate of Eton and Cambridge.
