to enjoy a celebratory meal for Lucas’ recent

by the appearance of a wounded young black

is sympathetic to his plight yet Lucas is
suspicious. Tyson claims he was the victim of a
stray bullet, When police officer HANK shows
up he displays a picture of a man wanted for
shooting a cop - it looks like Tyson. Tyson
overhears Hank and escapes. When Hank
figures out Lucas and Julia have been aiding the
wanted man, he gives Lucas an ultimatum -
present Tyson or face charges, an accusation

Tyson and learns that he did shoot a police

police may or may not believe. In the end,

Description
LUCAS HALL (40’s. Black. Defense Attorney)
Originally a crusader for justice, Lucas’ middle age has become a vault for cynicism and pragmatism. Under his controlled temper is a deep resentment for humanity: both for those who haven’t climbed out of the social sewer he was born into and for the legal system that exonerates those who can afford to pay for the best defense. Lucas suffers from self-loathing.
