For Life

Prisoner Aaron Wallace becomes a lawyer, to both litigate cases for other inmates and to fight to overturn his own wrongful conviction.

Tensions rise between Aaron and his crew when he provides counsel to a white supremacist in order to repay his debt to inmate Wild Bill; Ronnie braces for confrontation as he visits the prison to meet Aaron for the first time.

Aaron makes a strategic move to get his police file; District Attorney Maskins and Assistant District Attorney O'Reilly close in on proof of Aaron's malfeasance during Jose Rodriguez's trial, targeting Marie as a way to get to Aaron.

Looking back nine years, Marie reflects on her marriage to Aaron and struggles in the wake of his life-changing arrest.

While litigating on behalf of an inmate locked up on a robbery charge, Aaron is torn between doing what's right and what's best for his case; Marie recommits to Aaron's case; Safiya closes in on Foster's drug smuggling scheme.

Aaron confronts O'Reilly in court; Marie's father comes to town, intent on encouraging her and Darius to solidify their relationship; Maskins arranges for a dangerous inmate to be transferred to Bellmore.
