* AbortionFalloutDrama: In one episode, the angels are sent to counsel an estranged couple. It turns out that 20-something years earlier, the couple decided to have an abortion as they didn't feel they were ready for children. They were never able to conceive again and have spent the subsequent time regretting their decision and feeling that they were being punished for it. The angels assure them that that isn't the case.

Both have a juror who is absolutely convinced of the accused’s guilt for personal reasons rather than logical ones.
