Kate must mediate between a college bound student and a business man and a couple and performers. With Lauren, her step-mother breathing down her neck, she needs to focus until the end. She leans on people to help her get the job done, but is it enough? With her father dead, Kate struggles to balance her new life. Kate Reed wakes up to the sound of her phone ringing to find her soon to be ex- husband, Justin Patrick, next to her. She rushes around the boat and, after shov- ing him on his way, she makes her way up top. As she’s leaving, she meets An- drew who’s pulled his boat into the slip beside hers. It’s Kate’s first day back be- ing a mediator at Reed & Reed and al- ready she’s late. She has gone from be- ing a lawyer to a mediator for the firm founded by her father Teddy Reed. The firm is under fire and loosing clients so she’s needed back at work – especially her skills at resolving conflicts. As she stops at the boat slip’s locker to change shoes, she encounters Marty Fliegel who asks if she’s the new owner and suggests she change the boat’s name. She explains that ”Welcome A Broad” was the name her father chose and she’s inherited the boat. Besides she adds, it’s bad luck to change the name of a boat. When her phone rings, again a picture of the wicked witch from ”The Wizard of Oz” shows – seems her step-mother is trying to get a hold of her. She makes a stop at a small cafe´ where a man runs in and tells the owner to empty the cash drawer. When the owner pulls out a bat, the robber pulls out a gun. Kate springs to action and 3 Fairly Legal Episode Guide negotiates a ”deal”. The robber leaves with a case of beer and some beef jerky. Even though the owner is only out his cost of $17.50 for the goods and still has his cash, he still charges Kate $5.75 for her coffee and cookie. Her first encounter at work is her loyal assistant Leonardo who she calls Leo. He tells her that Judge Nicastro has requested her presence at 2:00 p.m. even though Kate insists the Judge hates her. Kate then starts ranting about her step-mother Lauren, also the managing partner for Reed & Reed, who hasn’t done anything with Teddy’s ashes yet, just as Lauren walks up behind her. Lauren explains about how the firm has been loosing clients and Lauren intends to do whatever to keep the firm afloat. She enlists Kate to settle a dispute between Charles and Douglas Pease, Reed & Reed’s biggest client, about the future of their company. Kate must convince them to sign the papers the firm drew up so they can get paid. Charlie lets Doug explain about his latest highway disaster. Doug says that another car sideswiped him and the boys in the car pointed a gun at him which caused him to veer his BMW into a concrete divider. Charlie is concerned that the DUI Doug received at the scene will threaten the buyout agreement. Kate decides she needs to get to the bottom of the DUI in order to settle the dispute. Kate heads over to Justin’s office. He’s the Assistant District Attorney and should be able to shed some light on the DUI. He has decided to give the two boys who pointed the gun at Douglas stiff sentences and that Douglas’s DUI can just disappear. As she leaves the office, she slips the accident file off Justin’s desk to read what happened herself. Kate reaches Judge Niscastro’s courtroom late, as usual. The Judge reminds her she’s late and tells her that Brian Michaels is suing an actor, a singer and a cupcake maker. He says that because they botched Michaels’ marriage proposal and lost his grandmother’s wedding ring, he’s suing for ten million dollars. The Judge explains he doesn’t want the case in court so Kate is to resolve it through mediation. He gives her 2 days and when she says that isn’t enough time, he gives her to the following afternoon, warning her that if she’s late, she’ll be in contempt of court. Kate calls Leo and asks why Nicastro doesn’t like her. After reading the file from Justin’s office, she rushes to find Justin and learning he’s at lunch, she heads to his normal haunt, an outdoor vending cart. She says one of the kids has a scholarship to Yale and he was only driving the car but Justin says they’re both guilty. The kid who pointed the gun will be offered a plea of 10 years and the driver, a plea of 5 years. He also reminds her that she shouldn’t have read the file. Kate meets with D’sean at the jail and explains to him what the D.A. plans to offer him. He’s gets so upset about Nathan’s position that the guards have to drag him away. When she meets with Nathan, he explains that after the other car ran into his (not the other way around as Doug told it) he was surprised by blond woman driving the car. Kate realizes one of the stories isn’t true as this is the first time anyone has mentioned a woman in the other car. Kate meets with her brother Spencer, also a lawyer, who tells her the kids are screwed because Doug wouldn’t want his wife to know about another woman so no way he’d come clean. Spencer explains that his wife is in Seattle for awhile and that he quit the firm to spend time with his family, unlike his father ever did. Kate meets with Charlie and Doug to ask them to drop the case against Nathan. Kate confronts Doug about the other woman in the car. He says he met her in a bar and after the accident, she ran off. Charlie insists they prosecute both boys. Kate leaves making a call to the Wizard but hangs up before it goes through. When Kate gets back to the firm she asks Leo if he can use his police contacts to find out everything about Doug’s accident. Lauren in the meantime is meeting for drinks with Tim Connelly to convince him to stay with Reed & Reed. Tim explains his firm wasn’t really going to leave, his dad was just trying to get a better rate. When Lauren says that she will go the extra mile to keep him, he slides his room key to her. But Lauren walks away with Tim saying that he wants his extra mile. Back at the firm Kate starts the mediation. Brian says he wanted to propose to Jessica, his fiancee´ on a cable car but the actor was lousy, the singer was horrible and cupcakes were supposed to have their faces on them but didn’t look anything like them. Since she gave him her grandfather’s prized watch, he decided to give her his grandmother’s ring but that after he handed Jessica the ring, she lost it, and she could have hung on to it.
