'Accused' Season 2 Sneak Peek Shows Michael Chiklis Giving a Teen a Break [Exclusive]

Michael Chiklis gives away a second chance in Collider's exclusive sneak peek of this week's episode Accused. The second season of the crime anthology series returns Tuesday night with an episode titled “Justin’s Story.” While the exclusive teaser doesn't reveal all the details of the case the audience will hear, we definitely get a glimpse of what could well lead to a court appearance. In the sneak peek, Chiklis – who plays a coach – can be seen sitting in his car with his cell phone. The coach speaks leniently to the person on the other side of the line, clearly looking past what they have done in hopes that they will clean up their behavior and move on to a better life. Then the truth comes out and we discover that the teenager is involved in selling drugs – with the trainer telling the young man that he has to give up the drugs if he wants him to keep his end of the bargain.

Together with The shield And Fantastic four Alum will also be featured in a lead role in the episode Sherri Saumwhich audiences will recognize from their work on titles like The Fosters And save me. Judging by the exclusive first look, the secret Chiklis' character holds for the teen will likely come to light one way or another, and one – or both – may end up making their case in front of a judge and jury.
