Critical Condition

Harm, Mac and Sturgis unite aboard an aircraft carrier following their successful thwarting of a terrorist plot, only to receive word of Bud's accident. While Harm and Mac disobey orders to rush to the shipboard hospital, back at home, the Admiral breaks the news to Harriet. Meanwhile, the Secretary of the Navy is accused of mishandling the terrorist threat by letting JAG officers lead the investigation and faces serious disciplinary action. The end of this episode is Harm breaking down in tears after learning that Bud will survive and being comforted by Mac.

Harm prosecutes the SEALS together with a new JAG lawyer, Lt. Cmdr. Tracy Manetti. The local sheriff claims that the SEALS were speeding and, since his department was not aware of any military activity going on in town, pursued the car. The Navy, though, maintains that they did indeed inform the local authorities and claim the sheriff is lying.

In Thin Air

Harm is assigned to defend a crewman responsible for plane maintenance accused of causing the death of a RIO (radio intercept officer). Harm is relieved of the case after the crewman questions his objectivity. Harm then flies with the plane�s pilot to uncover the truth about the RIO�s death. This episode features Harm�s line to Mac: �Do I give you nightmares?�

Offensive Action

Harm and Manetti defend a female pilot accused of sexual harassment by a member of her crew who claims she ruined his future in the military because he rebuffed her advances.

Harm, Mac and Turner go up against CIA attorney Catherine Gale when the agency tries to keep a 1968 Navy sub tragedy, in which 129 men died, classified. This episode features Mac and Harm coming in with groceries to cook dinner at Harm�s apartment and finding a TV set and video tape left by Webb.

Harm and Admiral Boone seem doomed to spend Christmas aboard a carrier until the opportunity to ferry a fighter back to New Jersey presents itself. Unfortunately, they're forced to detour when they're called upon to locate and escort a C-130 that is having navigation problems.

Complications

Harm and Mac are assigned to investigate after a Marine General claims a doctor caused his daughter's death in the operating room, even after the physician was cleared of malpractice.

Friendly Fire

Harm, serving as judge, hears the high-profile case of a U.S. pilot involved in the accidental bombing of British troops in Afghanistan while Mac prosecutes. Mac's fear for her case is two-fold: one, that Harm might try to get back at her for perceived slights when their roles were reversed in a recent case and, two, that Harm's background as a fighter pilot might play in favor of the defendant. Adding to the tension in the courtroom is the Secretary of the Navy's pressure to convict, which makes his political concerns readily apparent.

Heart & Soul

AJ struggles for survival in the freezing mountains after he accidentally ejects himself from a fighter jet piloted by Harm.

Empty Quiver

When a nuclear torpedo cannot be accounted for by the crew of a submarine, Sturgis is sent to Norfolk to investigate whether it's a case of terrorism or carelessness.

Harm is later assigned to defend the petty officer.

Ice Queen/Meltdown
