Plot Summary[]

Prostitute Carla Bouvier (many will remember as the hooker found with the husband by the wife in the pilot's first big case conducted by Harry) goes out of her way to impress upon Harry her love for him. You see, Harry doesn't shun those who come before him, and for a hooker, always used, kindness and a smile intending for some trick or sexual favor, Carla B wasn't accustomed to such polite treatment. Anyhow, when Harry resists her amourous advances, the hooker, Carla, who all that know her refer to her as "Carla B.", then contemplates jumping from his chambers window; then Harry must convince her not to commit suicide, as he then develops a close friendship with her.

Meanwhile, Judge Robert T Willard (Jason Bernard) who wants Harry to join their "fraternity of judges", although his methods don't exactly follow the model they are known to uphold. Dan, who is running for City Council, loses to, get this, to a deceased opponent!
