Perry Mason: Chapter Nine (2023)
Season 2, Episode 1
6/10
Chapter Nine
2 May 2023
The second season of Perry Mason, three years after the end of the first series.

With Perry now established as a lawyer. There is no need for an origins story.

It looked very sleek and opulent, like some of the wealthy people featured in the opener.

However It really did move at a snail's place albeit a moody one.

It opens with a casino barge being set on fire. The act initiated by spoilt rich kid Brooks McCutcheon. His father a business mogul disapproves of his son's hare brained business ventures. He should stick to soup kitchens. The episode ends with Brook's death.

In the meantime Perry is dealing with civil lawsuits. He successfully represented a store owner Sunny Gryce who sued his former employee who started up a rival business venture.

The first episode already dangles at least three prospective storylines for the season's main arc.

It is clear after Perry's conversation with Hamilton Burger. This is going to be a cynical take on the justice system.
