Jack Hogan is practicing his closing argument while he waits in the bleachers for his daughter to finish her gymnastics class. He is interrupted by an unfamiliar face that says he knows him from 14 years ago.

This was a very realistic scenario - one that I could visualize easily. As the story began to unfold, I knew some of what was to come, but not all. So, there was a little surprise involved. And, I liked Jack.
