"And Justice For All" is the seventh episode of the non-canonical The Goliath Chronicles, and the 72nd televised episode of the series. It originally aired on November 2, 1996.

Summary

Opening Monologue

"It is said that for a nation to survive and flourish, it must become a community of laws. Limits agreed to by its citizens that allow them to live together and work together in peace. To live outside the law is to reject the community. How can humans accept us if we fail to submit to their legal authority? How can we protect them if they turn us away?"

First Appearances

Continuity

In a rare example of continuity in The Goliath Chronicles, Goliath's defense speech at his trial includes footage from "Runaways" and "Broadway Goes to Hollywood".

Inaccuracies

We're confused too, Kermit
  • Maybe the Gang Leader's confession on tape would have worked... had Goliath not coaxed it out of him. As such the Gang Leader could have appealed and easily won.
  • Also, Goliath admitted to crimes on that same tape; he threatened to show New York City a crime wave the likes of which they had never seen. If the court took the Gang Leader at his word on the tape, why not Goliath as well?

It's understandable that the new writers didn't have time to familiarize themselves with the show in a time before this very wiki. But there's just no excuse for bad writing.
