Plot
Lieutenant Colonel Sarah MacKenzie (Catherine Bell) and Commander Harmon Rabb, Jr. (David James Elliott) are lawyers assigned to the Navy's elite Judge Advocate General Corps, a department tasked with prosecuting and defending criminal cases at sea. Harm and Mac investigate numerous occurrences, including espionage ("Legacy"), stowaways ("Florida Straits"), aircraft malfunctions ("Flight Risk"), breaches of religious law ("The Princess and the Petty Officer"), historical war crimes ("A Separate Peace"), and NATO collisions ("Collision Course"). Also this season, Bud (Patrick Labyorteaux) blames a doctor for the death of his daughter ("Family Secrets"), Commander Caitlin Pike (Andrea Parker) returns to JAG HQ ("Touch and Go"), the Admiral (John M. Jackson) heads a promotion board ("Baby, It's Cold Outside"), and Mic (Trevor Goddard) and Mac become engaged ("Lifeline"). Also, Harm becomes lost at sea ("Adrift"), Harriet is promoted to Lieutenant ("Lifeline"), and Mac prepares to give a historical lecture at the Naval Academy ("Mutiny").
Production
Navy Judge Advocate General Rear Admiral Donald J. Guter visited the set during the production of episode eighteen, titled "Liberty". Also this season, JAG filmed scenes at the Marine training facility Camp Pendleton, as "under an agreement with the Marine Corps, the show's producers get access to troops, combat equipment and military training in exchange for the service's approval of the scripts".[1] Donald P. Bellisario credits the military as being particularly supportive,[2] while series star Catherine Bell opined that JAG had become "the little show that could. It keeps going and growing".[3]
