The defense, which up till now had no case, begin to bring in heavyweights. In addition to Shapiro and Kardashian, famous lawyers, Alan Dershowitz, F. Lee Bailey, and, finally, Johnny Cochran are in the mix. Everything begins to turn when it is found out that Mark Furman, the officer who found the bloody glove and was one of the first on the scene, is an admitted racist. Shapiro is sitting in his office, trying to get inspired, when a reporter from "New Yorker" magazine comes in, wanting to talk to Shapiro about an unrelated story. He gets a scoop on the racism angle and runs with it. One of the most respected periodicals in America has an extensive story, completely orchestrated by Shapiro. Marcia Clark can't believe it. When Christopher Darden (who has stayed out out of the case until now) tells them that they could lose the case after reading the article, they now must go on big time damage control.
