This was a pretty good episode. Travis is once again on a case - this time at a prison where some forgery plates were made. He's trying to get to the souse, but even when he does catching the man at it is still a trick.
The man responsible also has a brother who wants to be just like him. The brothers' father is an ex-con and wants his kids straight. It's too late for the older, but the younger is still under his care - but not for long! There is a moral lesson at the end of this episode which shows how far we can go by wanting to be just like those we admire and respect. Unfortunately, the price was very, very high for this teenager. he may have learned an important lesson (but we don't get to stick around and see). But was the lesson learned worth the cost?
