Outline

Part 1 of 2 (Part 02).

At the request of Lieutenant Commander Mic Brumby, Admiral Chegwidden sends Harm and Bud down to Sydney, Australia in order to represent a US sailor, Kevin Lee, who has suddenly surfaced 28 years after being “murdered” by an Australian sailor outside Luna Park Sydney. Lee contends that he accidentally killed his Australian nemesis years ago and, in a panic, exchanged identity with the dead man. Now, charged with murder, Lee is to be tried first in a New South Wales court (before Lee could be handed over to US authorities for additional desertion charges), pitting Harm against Brumby. Harm and Brumby are also about to go head-to-head outside the courtroom when Mac appears in Sydney (officially on a mission to bring back the remains of the other body) and Brumby decides it is time to make her choose between him and Harm.
