The episode begins with Corporal Woods stopping a women from getting raped.  At JAG, Harm arrives for a meeting late but when he comes in, the Admiral makes an announcement about him receiving the Distinguished Flying Cross for his actions pushing his wingman's plane over the mountain to the ocean.  The Admiral pins it on him and asks Mac to give him a kiss because of the tradition of the girlfriend/wife or mother giving a kiss when they receive the medal.  Harm accepts the medal but wishes the Admiral hadn't given it to him in public.  The Admiral also gives him and Bud the case of the attempted rape, and gives Mac and Mic a drug smuggling case.  Mac will defend and Mic will prosecute. 

After everyone leaves, he is talking with Mac about how Mic still wants her and she is encouraging him.  Mac gets mad and tells him that it is none of his business.  Bud and Harm go speak with Corporal Woods and find out that he wont testify.  Harm tells him he can force him to testify and come back later to speak with him, only to find him missing.  Bud goes around his old neighborhood and shows his picture around to see if they can find him.  Harm speaks with Corporal's Woods mother. 

In Mac and Mic's trial, Mac questions the person who found the drugs and his dog's abilities to sniff out Marijuana.  The dog is old and has cataracts.  She has a bunch of oregano filled bags and one filled with Marijuana and she thinks Jingo the dog will sniff out the wrong one.  She is right.  Mac wins her case. Harm goes back to the office and apologizes to her for his remarks to her about Mic.  Mic comes to her apartment, bringing a salad for dinner and tries to kiss her.  She doesn't let him kiss her. 

Harm goes back to his apartment for the night and Corporal Woods appears because Harm brought his mother into it.  They go inside to his apartment to talk.  Corporal Woods gets confused and wants to leave to clear his head.  Harm knows a place they can go.  They head out to play basketball.  If Harm loses his shot, he leaves Corporal Woods alone but if Corporal Woods misses his shot then he must testify.  He loses his shot and testifies.

At JAG, Tiner tells Mac that because Jingo the drug sniffing dog is so old, he is now in a shelter because he can't do his job right.   Mac asks Mic if this is true and he says yes cause he didn't want to upset her.  He will do anything to make her happy.  We then hear her talking to someone about how she is not ready for commitment, not sure how this will work, etc., then we see that she is talking to the dog, Jingo.
