Episode 3 of Pro Bono begins with David being thanked by Byeol's current owner, as the previous owner denied Byeol being her dog. This resulted in O&Partners gaining the attention of the public and Jung-in and David being interviewed by the media.

David's interview gets the team their next client- Kang-hoon. The 12-year-old boy was disabled below the waist and wanted David to take his case. He wanted to file a case against God for his condition. David tries to make the boy and his team understand that there cannot be a case like this where Kang-hoon would win. However, it is later seen that not just Gi-ppeum but David was trying to find a way for the boy to win the case and learn about the hospital where he was born.

With more information provided by Kang-hoon's mother, Saet-byeol, the team learn that she was an orphan who ran away and was living a tragic life with alcohol addiction and got pregnant when she was only sixteen. She tried to abort, but the hospital convinced her otherwise and did not even provide the care she needed, and the ultrasounds that would have depicted the condition of the unborn child.

However, even with a specially-abled judge in the case, they did not win. The judge shared that, according to the Constitution, all lives are precious and have a right to exist; therefore, Kang-hoon's case is dismissed.

Therefore, she wanted to take Kang-hoon's case. However, after the case was dismissed, they all thought it was impossible to win until David came up with another plan.
