Eli takes on Nate's case when he's accused of malpractice, but Nate's secrets jeopardize the case and cause Eli to have visions of the day his father died. Taylor's attempt to stave off Dowd involve her father and then Eli.

Eli has a vision of himself sitting in the back of a taxicab traveling on the Golden Gate Bridge when suddenly the earthquake hits. Unfortunately nobody believes him until Dr. Chen tells him about a scientist, Daniel Foote, who predicts the same earthquake. With Foote's help, Eli sues the city of San Francisco to get it to shut down the Golden Gate Bridge before it's too late. But he's opposed in court by W.P.K senior partner Marci Klein. Even more surprising is Klein's co-counsel -- Maggie. Meanwhile, Taylor begins to fall for Matt, and Jordan fights to remain head of the firm.
