A civilian has sued the US because the Navy had held him in a brig for unauthorized absence -- because someone had stolen his identity, had enlisted by using it, and later went AWoL. Mic, having opened his own law firm in Washington, represents the man and asks for $2.5M. Harm and Bud settle with Mic. The admiral goes on a fishing trip in New Mexico, and Gunny, at his request, goes on a trip, also to New Mexico, to pick up a Marine belatedly accused of desertion (after his action at the Chosin Reservoir in Korea in 1950) and to escort him to Washington. Gunny and his prisoner take a contrived detour, wreck their car, and come under fire, and the admiral joins the firefight. After a resolution of the charge of desertion, the Marine receives the Navy Cross in an official ceremony. Meanwhile Harm turns over in the admiral's chair, hits his head, and experiences pleasant delusions about Mac. Written by DocRushing

RAdm. Chegwidden holds an engagement party for Mac and Mic, and the whole JAG gang attend while wearing their glad rags. Harm and Mac privately take part in frank and profound communication with each other amid a parade of incisive and revealing flashbacks about events involving the two of them, thereby showing the changing and developing relationship between Harm and Mac despite the engagement of Mac and Mic. Bud runs into some trouble with his wardrobe, and Harriet receives a gift of gold. The final scene ends with a subtle but pointed gesture raising several profound questions about what may or may not take place in the future. Written by DocRushing

While Sarah prepares to present a lecture at the US Naval Academy, Annapolis, Maryland, she falls asleep and dreams about a conspiracy to commit a mutiny at sea aboard USS Somers, a brig of war, a sailing vessel, in 1842. The Commanding Officer of the real USS Somers was Cdr. Alexander Slidell Mackenzie, whose surname was nearly identical to Sarah's. The regular cast portray the people involved in Sarah's dream. Trevor Goddard plays the role of Cdr. Mackenzie, and Catherine Bell plays Mrs. Mackenzie. Here, as in truth, Midshipman Philip Spencer, the leader among the mutineers, is the son of John Canfield Spencer, the Secretary of War under President John Tyler. [In 1845 George Bancroft, the Secretary of the Navy, in a response to the Somers Affair, ordered the founding of the US Naval Academy.] Both Harm and Sarah continue to show uncertainty about the future.
