■Episode 1 synopsis
Ryoko Kannaba (Shuri) suddenly appears at the Keiko Okusa Law Office, where Keiko Okusa (YOU) is the director, and announces that she has decided to try being a lawyer. Yoshihiro Sugiura (Jesse), a young lawyer who graduated from the Faculty of Law at the University of Tokyo, can’t hide his confusion at Ryoko, who doesn’t look like a lawyer in her attire and doesn’t know who she is, but just shows off her lawyer badge.Okusa seems to have known that Ryoko was coming. I accept it easily.

Furthermore, Ryoko takes the stand to defend Ryo Shioya, who was charged with abetting suicide, which Sugiura had intended to refuse. He is said to have sent a message to his girlfriend, Sae Kawano, telling her to die, even though he knew she had attempted suicide in the past. Moreover, she was suffering from mental illness on a daily basis to the point that she had to go to the counselor, Masumi Umemoto. Sugiura advises that it would be impossible for a newcomer to commit suicide, as there is little precedent for such a case, but on the other hand, Okusa orders him to support Ryoko.

When interviewed, Shioya appears completely exhausted and apologizes to Sae, who committed suicide, and says that he never wished for her to die, but rather that he himself wanted to die. In fact, the conversation between the two just before his death began with Shioya’s message that he wanted to disappear.

Ryoko goes to talk to Sae’s boss, Kamioka, and Sae’s parents’ home, but of course they will not listen to what Ryoko, the defendant’s lawyer, has to say, and Ryoko is stuck in a dilemma. Take unexpected action.
