Season 1

Seventeen year old asthmatic Shay Alkobi is the son of Beersheba Magistrate Court Judge and District Court candidate Micah Alkobi. Despite not having his license, Shay goes out for a drive and hits a motorcycle, severely injuring the rider. Panicked, he flees the scene. When Micah discovers that the victim of the accident belongs to one of the most dangerous crime families around.

As part of the Massri family, crime family, Juma is not only suspected of car theft and his involvement in the hit-and-run, but of the notion that the accident was not one at all, but rather a deliberate attempt on Asaf Ben Atar's life. Micah enlists attorney Yael Ben Moshe, a former intern of his and a lawyer at the cusp of her career, to represent Juma.

Superintendent Rufus secretly meets with Udi Ben Atar, Asaf Ben Atar's brother, who gives her a Ventolin inhaler found at the scene of the accident. Khaled tells Micah he's decided to fire Yael Ben Moshe from Juma's case. Rufus and fellow investigator Avi Nachmias interrogates Juma and tells him that he isn't suspected of stealing a car, but rather a hit-and-run accident.

Micah considers withdrawing his candidacy for the position of District Court Judge, but fears such a move would arouse suspicion. Omar Massri, head of the Bedouin crime family, meets with Khaled's wife Nora, who learns that her husband is in trouble. Juma Massri tries to get out of the mess he's in without throwing Khaled under the bus, and tells Yael he has an alibi for the time of the crime.

Shay forces Micah to defend Gabi at a disciplinary hearing and save her job at the school. Micah warns Gabi against seeing his son outside of school. Rufus visits Yael at home and shows her photographs of Hussnei, who was badly burned by Ben Atar's cronies while in police custody, and advises that Juma remain in protective custody.

Micah picks Shay up from Sarah's house. Sarah grills him for answers and he feeds her with lies that she has no choice but to believe. After seeing Juma murdered at their own home, Nora informs Khaled that she and the kids are leaving. Shay attempts to get intimate with Gabi, she rejects him aggressively and demands he leave her alone.

Rufus investigates Omar Massri and Udi Ben Atar for Juma's murder. Naturally, both are denying any involvement in the case. Udi tells Rufus about the peculiar young man he saw at Asaf's bedside. When Rufus looks at the footage from the security camera in Asaf's room, she recognizes the youth to be Shay. Omar kidnaps Khaled's son for several hours as a sign of what's to come.

While Khaled lays injured in Micah's garden shed, Micah is left with the task of transporting the weapons to Omar himself. Shortly after the delivery the car detonates and one of Omar's men is killed. Rufus is being investigated by the Police Investigations Department for suspected collaboration with the Ben Atar family. Shay looks for Gabi at school and realizes she's left.

While Khaled lays in Ben Atar's soldiers take out two of the Massri's drug dealers and steal their drugs. Massri's sponsors are kicked out of a construction site by Ben Atar's men. The Ben Atar family decides to officially eradicate the Massri's criminal organization. An old case of Micah's is leaked to the press and eliminates any chance he had of being elected District Court Judge.

A late night meeting between Omar Massri, Udi Ben Atar and Khaled brings out the truth: the culprit who hit Asaf Ben Atar with his car is none other than Shay Alkobi, son of Judge Micah Alkobi. Rufus steals the trash from Micah's home and in it finds a used inhaler. She meets with a private eye and comes to realize that the inhaler found at the scene of the hit-and-run belongs to Shay.

Shay is interrogated by the police in Sarah's presence. When Sarah hears exactly who it was that Shay hit with his car, she realizes that she's just led her beloved grandson right into the lion's den. Micah meets with Udi who reassures him: there is no danger to his son, so long as he plays the game by his rules. It's very important to him that he have a District Court Judge on his side.
