Matt is trying to exhortation death row inmate Big Ben Donovan for a murder he didn't commit but is hampered in his progress by Donovan's insistence that he is guilty of the crime. As Matt and Dakota dig deeper, they find that both criminal elements and the feds are crawling out of the woodwork and somebody wants Big Ben dead. Donovan tries to accommodate them by hanging himself in his cell.
