Gary Edwards, C.E.O. of Edwards Electric, comes to Fallin & Assoc. for help in resolving strike issues. If the strike
is not settled, Gary will have to close the plant all together. Nick Fallin learns through one his clients at Legal Services
that the union workers are not as united as they appear. His client, Maria Braczyk, revealed to Nick that there is division
along gender lines as the women are afraid to lose their jobs and the younger men want to fight. Maria is particularly nervous
about losing her job as she is fighting to hold on to her son, who is trying to emancipate himself from her and is scabbing
at the plant to support himself. However, once the strike ends, he will lose his job and Maria needs to be able to support
him when that happens. Meanwhile, James Mooney takes on a case that hits especially close to home when his nephew shoots his
mother's boyfriend, Terry, after discovering that Terry has been abusing his mother. Sadly, James' sister is more concerned
about the loss of Terry than the fate of her own son.
