One Hundred Tears Away

Series 1, episode 5

Written by David E. Kelley, Ron Reedy

Directed by Sandy Smolan

Originally Aired On: Monday, 20 October 1997

Ally manages to get in a fight in a store, which starts a domino effect of incidents, eventually leading to her arrest. Renee has to bail her out, but subsequently a court case follows. Things just get worse for Ally as she's suspended and Judge Pink calls for a hearing into Ally's emotional stability, as someone reported that her mental health was unstable. After many emotional testimonies she is cleared, but it's the words other characters say about her that make the episode so memorable. The most asked question though, is why exactly was Ally buying lubricating jelly from the store?
