- Tim and the team head up I-95 to New York for a meeting with John Lauro, Donaghy's defense attorney, and to track down the illusive FBI agents who handled Donaghy's investigation. We learn that someone from high up may have been pulling the strings to undermine the investigation, even going as far to leak the story to the NY Post.
- After learning about the suspicious circumstances surrounding the leak of the original Donaghy story and Jimmy Battista's plea deal, the crew investigates the most controversial game in NBA history: Game 6 of the 2002 Western Conference Finals.
- We learn more about the role the NBA played behind the scenes influencing calls on the court, and about one owner's longtime war against the officials.
