Summary: Alan Shore travels to Texas with Chelina Hall to make a last ditch appeal for death row inmate Zeke Borns, a man with diminished mental capacity who was convicted of a crime he does not even remember committing.

MISTAKES/GOOFS

FACT: Shore gets a hula girl to take a message to the governor of Texas in order to save a death row inmate. The governor was in Hawaii at the time. If the governor is out of state, he has no power to give a stay. Shore should have gone to see the Lt. governor who was the acting governor
FACT: The lawyers tried to get the High Court and the governor to commute the sentence. In Texas it is the Pardon and Parole Commission that commutes the sentence of a death row inmate
