Lynn Swann guest stars as an ex-NFL player who's now a 1-L student. (The secondary opening credits are accompanied by highlights of Pittsburgh Steelers games of the 1970s.) Pierce struggles to grasp the Law School pace, especially since the mid-term exam is coming up. Many of the 1-L students ace Kingsfield's exam. Coincidentally, Nottingham finds that a test has been stolen from her files. Several students are suspected, including Willis Bell.
