An elderly business associate of Ben's dies after a man, posing as Candy, tries to rob her; the woman suffers a fatal heart attack. Since it happened during the commission of a felony, it's considered murder. The real Candy, who had been assaulted at a hotel by the same man, is held in connection with the old woman's death. Meanwhile, Ben is unsure about the young defense attorney's ability to defend Candy, particularly since the state's attorney has a nearly spotless conviction record. But the budding lawyer is determined to play David to the prosecutor's Goliath.
