Harm and Mac are asked to investigate claims by a Marine General that a Navy doctor was negligent and killed the General’s sixteen year-old daughter during surgery with the General believing that there was a cover-up concerning his daughter’s death. Mac soon finds herself also battling to save the General’s career when the General himself faces a possible court-martial after intimidating the Navy personnel who helped treat his teenage daughter while Bud is left increasingly frustrated by the low-level work he is given, until he stumbles onto a disability case that doesn’t sit well with him while Harm angrily confronts Singer about her pregnancy. Bud is eventually granted permanent limited duty, bringing him back to JAG on a full-time basis.
