Outline

Part 1 of 2 (People v. Mac, S04E09).

ZNN star reporter Normal Delaporte (Barry Jenner) claims to have evidence that U.S. troops used chemical weapons against expatriate Americans during the Gulf War. Harm is assigned to assist Congresswoman Bobbi Latham (Anne-Marie Johnson) in a House Subcommittee on National Security investigation into whether ZNN allegations are true. At the same time, Mac’s ex-husband and ex-convict Chris Ragle (Joe Lando) shows up looking for money. Royal Australian Navy Lieutenant Commander Mic Brumby (Trevor Goddard) joins the office as an exchange officer. It turns out the ZNN allegations was a sensationalist fraud, and Harm rhetorically asks why the public should believe ratings-driven reporters over ordinary service members who bears the real cost of war.
