The law firm represents Daniel Post (Michael J. Fox), a CEO battling terminal lung cancer who used his status with a pharmaceutical company to ensure that he receive the non-placebo in a promising anti-cancer drug test. Now, another participant in the test study is suing him.
During one of Post’s visits to Crane, Poole & Schmidt, the charismatic man meets and becomes romantically involved with the firm’s Denise Bauer. Meanwhile, Denny Crane is attracted to Beverly Bridge (Joanna Cassidy), a fifty-year-old attractive predator trolling for a husband amongst her high-net-worth peers.
And Alan Shore advocates on behalf of “Hands”, a fellow quirky employee, in his quest for partnership at Crane, Poole & Schmidt.

| (To Denise)
Daniel Post: Are you really my lawyer or did the Make a Wish Foundation just finally come through?
| Denise: I have a client who tried to buy his way into a cancer study. Could you tell me what possessed you to do that?
Daniel Post: I got cancer.
| Alan: Jerry, you know I have tremendous affection for my own intelligence and even I think you are smarter than me.
Jerry: Oh, I am.
| Alan: Things going well with Bev, then?
Denny: She said she wanted to fulfill every single one of my fantasies. I made a list. Had to type it myself. My assistant threatened to quit.
| Alan: Will you at least let me have a glance at his performance review?
Denny: That's highly confidential.... Just don't tell anybody where you got it.

| Denny: You weren't really going to represent him are you?
Alan: I gave him my word.
Denny: Oh please, we're lawyers.... He's a whack job.
