The Reasonable Doubt Season 4 premiere shows Jax still in a medically induced coma, and Lewis spends most of his time at the hospital, hoping for Jax to wake up. At the same time, Krystal and Daniel are trying to keep Jax's new firm going while her old firm tries to take her clients. As reported by FilmiFeed, Eric Cropper is one of their biggest clients, and Daniel brings Corey in to help. But there's a twist! Corey soon realizes that Eric wants him to use rule-bending methods. Clearly, Corey isn't comfortable with that, and after their argument, he decides to let Eric go.

But Eric's problems grow when Brooke learns Aura's evaluation, making his $2 million offer for her shares look very different. Brooke knows that she deserves more. On the other hand, Monica gets unexpected help when Rosie Edwards decides to pay for her lawyer. She brings in Seth Edelman, who pleads not guilty for Monica and gets her moved to a different jail area.

How can we forget Lewis? Thankfully, he got some good news in Episode 1 after a nurse calls him to the hospital after Jax wakes up.

According to FilmiFeed, Jax comes back home in the Reasonable Doubt Season 4 premiere, but Jax being Jax, she doesn't want to rest and decides to return to work as soon as possible. Thankfully, at the Stewart Firm, Krystal, Daniel, and Corey are happy to have her back. But that excitement doesn't last long when Jax learns that Corey let Eric go.

Corey tries to explain to her that he thought Eric could become a problem for the new firm. But Jax doesn't agree with him and goes to Eric. Interestingly, Jax quickly reminds him why he trusted her for years. After a private video of Eric and Brooke leaks online, she believes Brooke might be behind it. Eric eventually fires his new lawyers and returns to Jax. Corey staying in Los Angeles also causes problems with Brandy. She starts to wonder if he has feelings for Jax, but Corey soon makes it clear that he doesn’t.

At the same time, Krystal tells Jax that the firm is running low on money. Though Jax refuses to speak for Monica in court, she still goes to see Monica. And then comes the biggest twist. Brooke is kidnapped while on her way to meet someone.


Reasonable Doubt Season 4 premiere recap: Brooke's kidnapping brings a new problem for Eric

After learning about Brooke's kidnapping, Jax heads straight to Eric's house. The police are already there, but things get even worse when the kidnappers ask for $15 million and tell Eric to keep the police away. However, Eric does not want to pay.

After detectives bring attention to Allen Russo, who went missing years ago, Jax reminds them that Eric was never charged. Meanwhile, Eric even gets blamed online, but his angry press conference only makes things worse.

Interestingly, Daniel finds that Brooke was looking into serious money problems at CROP Records. This leads to Jax and Daniel wondering if Brooke was planning to expose everything and if this is tied to the kidnapping. While the problems were already going on, they only increased after the kidnappers doubled the demand to $30 million. While Eric was not ready to pay, Corey made him realize that Brooke matters more than money.

The ending of Reasonable Doubt Episode 3 brings the biggest twist. Until now, Eric was not ready to pay the ransom, but things get even worse when he fails to get the $30 million in time. Everyone then believes Brooke has been killed. But surprisingly, Brooke is alive and suddenly shows up at the police station. But that's not the only thing, as she points the finger at Eric and accuses him of trying to hurt her, which creates a whole new problem for Eric.
