“Push, Jump, Fall” offers two new cases. Will (Ramón Rodríguez) and Faith (Iantha Richardson) investigate a murder and theft of a horse at a black rodeo that initially points to a problematic missing rider (Yolonda Ross), however there’s something much bigger going on involving someone using the animals of the rodeo as drug mules. Angie (Erika Christensen) and Ormewood (Jake McLaughlin) look into a man’s fall that might have been accidental or suicide. Not able to deal with her own grief, and carrying around her mother’s ashes in a cardboard box, Angie instead puts her energy into helping Ormewood reaching out to Josiah (Kenneth Mosley) and Bon Bon (Jonny Beauchamp) to help her partner gets his affairs in order prior to his surgery.

Matlock Monday takes us back to the legal practice of the folksy defense attorney Benjamin Leighton Matlock (Andy Griffith). Dick Van Dyke guest-stars as Judge Carter Addison, and old associate of Matlock from law school days, who plans the perfect crime in murdering his mistress (Bobbie Eakes) and framing her new lover (Brian Lane Green). Then he becomes the presiding judge of the murder trial and steers the case towards a guilty verdict after failing to get Matlock to give up the case to another lawyer (which is the first moment to raise Matlock’s suspicion and tie circumstantial evidence back to the judge).
