Bad Judge

Get to know wild-child criminal court judge Rebecca Wright (Kate Walsh, "Grey's Anatomy," "Private Practice"), in this special first look at Bad Judge.

Rebecca (Kate Walsh) isn't ready to invest in Gary (Ryan Hansen), and she isn't interested in pursuing a fling. She eventually decides to clear her head with some time alone, but when her van breaks down, she realizes the one relationship she can always count on is with Tedward (Tone Bell. Along the way, she deals with a celebrity who has shoplifted for attention from her closest relationship, the paparazzi.

Rebecca (Kate Walsh) attempts to befriend the court stenographer after forgetting her name, and she gets anxious when her Fireman (guest star Ryan McPartlin) wants more from her than the casual fling she'd like with him. She fails to find justice in the courtroom while trying the manager of a restaurant who sexually harasses his employees. In the end, Rebecca (literally) kicks butt and serves up her own brand of retribution. Also starring Tone Bell, John Ducey, Miguel Sandoval and Ryan Hansen. Angelique Cabral and Amy Rhodes guest star.

Tedward (Tone Bell) is concerned for Rebecca's (Kate Walsh) safety after a convict who's case she tried is released. She contemplates getting a gun and handles the case of a dim and unaware thief. When the ex-con thanks Rebecca for giving him a chance, Tom (John Ducey) is persuaded to push for lighter charges on the mentally unstable criminal.

Rebecca (Kate Walsh) is called for jury duty; but it conflicts with the Serpico olympics. She serves as a juror on a prostitution case; which she believes should be legalized. Tedward (Tone Bell) trains Gary (Ryan Hansen) to be Rebecca's replacement in case she misses the Olympics. Miguel Sandoval and John Ducey also star. Guest starring Rob Riggle and Amy Rhodes.

What is best in life?

Rebecca's (Kate Walsh) rocker ex-husband Keith (guest star Jim Jefferies) re-appears in her life to let her know of the death of an old friend. With Gary's (Ryan Hansen) help, Rebecca realizes she still carries anger toward her ex and is able to successfully let the past go. Tedward (Tone Bell) sees the courtroom as the perfect way to meet recently single women, but realizes he has gone too far when a convict's girlfriend thinks he's "Mr. Right."

Over Christmas, Rebecca tries the case of "Face Mask Mom," a mother who tackled a PeeWee football player. The trial is made difficult by a sweltering heat, and the air conditioning can only be fixed by a specific union worker that is nowhere to be found. Face Mask Mom and Rebecca realize they can truly enjoy the holidays when surrounded by good friends.

Rebecca helps her friend Michelle get over her divorce, but soon realizes not everyone enjoys her making judgments on their decisions. Meanwhile, Tom and Tedward join forces to convince a witness to testify. Hernandez has to endure a sexual harassment course with Judy.

In the midst of a high profile case, a hacker releases an incriminating photo of Rebecca (Kate Walsh). Meanwhile, Gary (Ryan Hansen) is solicited for therapeutic advice.

Everyone is on lockdown in the courthouse due to a police emergency outside. An innocent game to pass the time leads to a major revelation about Rebecca - she hasn't cried in over 10 years. Meanwhile, Tedward is extremely hungry and discovers someone has stolen granola bars from his earthquake kit.

Rebecca has a chance at breaking a courtroom record, but drama with Michelle's ex-husband threatens to slow the process. At the same time, Tom tries desperately to form official friendships with the gang. Meanwhile, Tedward and Gary search for the perfect gift for Rebecca.
