Channeling Perry Mason whenever he gets into a bind, Steve Winslow is a part time actor/cab driver with a law degree and virtually no experience, except getting fired.  He's got an office, a girl who reads novels between rare phone calls and a college buddy P.I. who will do work for him on the cuff.He uses his sense of the dramatic, his understanding of the jury as audience and his willingness to appear foolish as his tools to outsmart the D.A., co-opt some big-time corporate attorneys and save his client, when he can figure out who that is. In this one, is it the homeless man, the millionaire or the kid with the green hair?Winslow frequently comments that he doesn't know what he's doing, but in the end he seems like the smartest guy in the room and I'm scratching my head about how he pulled it off.  Fun and satisfying.
