SEBASTIAN GOES AFTER A STAR COLLEGE QUARTERBACK AND TWO OF HIS TEAMMATES AFTER A CO-ED ACCUSES THEM OF GANG RAPING HER AT A CAMPUS PARTY, ON "SHARK," THURSDAY, OCT. 19

 "In the Grasp" -- Sebastian attempts to convict a star college quarterback and two of his teammates after a co-ed accuses them of gang raping her at a party in the players' on-campus residence, on SHARK, Thursday, Oct. 19 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.  Steven DePaul directed the episode written by Devon Greggory.

While attempting to build their case, Sebastian and his legal team must contend with a code of silence from the other players, the quarterback's lawyer and the university's chancellor, whom Sebastian asserts is protecting the university's reputation and its lucrative football team at all costs.   To make matters worse, they fear that the jurors might be swayed by reports that the victim was drunk and willingly went to a private room with the accused players.  Meanwhile, Sebastian takes on Julie's school after she tells him she was wrongly suspended for plagiarizing a paper and faces possible expulsion.
