In yet another “”ripped from the headlines”” episode, Harm takes his turn on the bench in a ‘friendly fire’ incident, whereby British troops were killed after an American pilot accidently dropped his bomb ordnance on their location.

Mac is assigned to prosecute the pilot, but has to deal with Harm’s repeated impartial rulings. Harm though has his own problems as the SecNav makes it crystal clear to him that a conviction is required to satisfy the British.

News reporter Bill O’Reilly is featured.
