Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Wrongfully accused of murder, Dr. Richard Kimble (David Janssen) continues his search for the "One-Armed Man" who can prove his innocence, while the relentless Lt. Gerard (Barry Morse) steps up his efforts to recapture Kimble and deliver him to Death Row, as The Fugitive launches its second season. Guest star Ed Begley appears as famed criminal laywer G. Stanley Lazar (Ed Begley), who during a TV discussion show claims that he could not only get a new trial for Kimble, but also an acquittal. After being contacted by the still-in-hiding Kimble, Professor Lazar tests his theory in a mock trial held before his law students. Alas, Lazar is plagued by a plethora of personal demons that could negatively affect the outcome of the "trial"--while Gerard, suspecting that Kimble is somewhere in the vicinity of the classroom, slowly closes in on his quarry.
