After the team gets a brutally candid critique from Hamilton Burger (Justin Kirk), Della (Juliet Rylance) tries to persuade a stubbornly resistant Mason (Matthew Rhys) that they should put Emily Dodson (Gayle Rankin) on the stand in the Season 1 finale, "Chapter Eight." Strickland and Drake (Shea Whigham, Chris Chalk) join Mason and Della in trying to tie up loose ends as the sensational trial builds to its climax. HBO has renewed the series for a second season.
