In Episode 16, titled “Blood Moonstruck,” the Manhattan Court descends into chaos during a rare blood moon night. The night starts off with “blood moon bingo,” where everyone tries to predict what the night could bring. Dan Fielding fakes an injury to get out of work, but things don’t go as planned for him. Abby catches his lie, and he admits he was faking the injury so that he could sue his building’s co-op president into not allowing pets in the building. Meanwhile, sweet and unexpected romance comes into Julianne’s life in the form of a criminal whom she cannot date.
The upcoming episode, “Funnest Judge in the City,” will bring some big changes. Abby meets a new judge named Toby Nulman, who quickly becomes a favorite in the courtroom. His light-hearted approach wins people over, but Abby is not so sure about him. As she tries to figure him out, Gurgs gets caught up in chaos involving an old courthouse welcome video featuring Roz, the beloved character from the original series.
According to ScreenRant’s exclusive sneak peek at the episode, Abby faces unexpected consequences after challenging Judge Nulman’s intentions and gets suspended by her boss, Jake. This twist makes things harder for Abby and sets up a dramatic finish to the season.
