* AmbiguousInnocence: Lawrence and Kenneth defend a man accused of murder who says he is innocent. As they rise to hear the verdict, the defendant turns to his lawyer and says, "However it turns out, I want you to know I did it". The verdict is "Not Guilty" and the man walks out free.
* DrugsAreBad: Averted in the episode "Fires of the Mind", first aired in 1965. Creator/DonaldPleasence plays the Leary expy, on trial for murder after one of his students took his own life. Instead of "drugs are bad", the Arnold Manoff screenplay showed both sides. Lawrence is so disgusted that he quits the case; Kenneth tries LSD to see what its like and testifies that he had a positive experience.
