Explicații IMDb: Della presents a stubborn Mason with her case for putting Emily on the stand; Mason, Strickland, Della, and Drake attempt to tie up loose ends as the trial comes to a close.
Explicații TMDb: After the team receives some unvarnished critique from Hamilton Burger, Della presents an increasingly stubborn Mason with her case for putting Emily on the stand. As the sensational trial winds to a close, Mason, Strickland, Della, and Drake attempt to tie up loose ends - and set the stage for their futures.
Explicații Wikipedia: As Mason theorizes putting Ennis on the stand, Burger advises Mason to rest his case and pin his hopes on Hicks' testimony. Street suggests that Mason put Emily on the stand, to which he agrees. However, during cross-examination, Barnes is able to get Emily to claim at least partial responsibility for Charlie's death. Mason delivers a passionate closing statement blaming Barnes for attacking Emily's character instead of pursuing the truth. After five days of deliberation, the jury becomes deadlocked and the judge declares a mistrial. Barnes vows to retry the case and attacks a reporter who brings up the impact the failed trial will have on his mayoral campaign. Strickland meets with a juror he paid off, who reveals two other jurors legitimately voted not guilty. The case is not retried. Despite noting the differences in appearance to Charlie the baby Birdy found has, Emily accepts the baby as Charlie and joins Birdy's traveling, miracle-based church. Strickland leaves Mason to work for Burger, now prosecuting the church's financial crimes. Drake resigns from the police force, while Holcomb has Ennis killed. Mason moves into Jonathan's office, taking on Street as his secretary (and future partner) and Drake as his lead detective. Mason tracks down Alice, who disappeared following the Easter Sunday "resurrection" and works as a waitress in a coastal town, and they bond over their loneliness. At the ocean's edge, Mason lets the black thread taken from Charlie's eye carry into the wind.
