The season was conducted at a certain level of sophistication. The interaction between the lawyers was especially interesting.
In the final episode everything comes together. With all of the ups and downs and chess game dynamics of the season, how is he going to win his case?
It's like they had a different writing staff. His nemesis sets up a showdown to be questioned in court, then completely falls apart at the simplest questions.
The title character has no case. The wrong guys won. Then in his closing, he basically says it doesn't matter, you can find the corporation guilty anyway ... which they do ... for 162 million dollars ... so the corporation CEO of course talks to the title character alone and tells him the dastardly truth while agreeing to a 50 million dollar settlement ... the guy hadn't heard about cellphones recording so his confession gets him sent to jail.
In reality, even though we know the corporation was guilty in this series, if you can't make a case they're not guilty by default. They would have appealed and at the very least gotten the verdict chopped down to a couple million, or thrown out all together.
The whole series went from intriguing ... to what just happened? What kind of crap was this to end with? Very disappointing.
