When a student of Jessica’s is mistakenly taken into custody for a murder she did not commit, the injustice compels her to act. Determined to uncover the truth, she embarks on a relentless quest to identify the actual perpetrator and clear her pupil’s name.

Double Jeopardy is a television programme presented in the form of a single episode. It falls under the genre of an episodic drama and follows a self‑contained story rather than a long‑running series. The format allows the narrative to focus tightly on the events it depicts, keeping the viewer’s attention on one particular case. The central thread of the episode concerns a student of Jessica’s who is mistakenly taken into custody for a murder she did not commit. The wrongful arrest sets the stage for the main conflict, as the injustice of the situation drives the plot forward. The student’s predicament is the catalyst that propels the story into motion. In response to the arrest, Jessica takes matters into her own hands. Determined to clear her pupil’s name, she embarks on her own investigation, refusing to accept the official version of events. Her resolve is clear: she will not let the mistake stand, and she is prepared to pursue whatever leads might point to the actual perpetrator. The episode then follows Jessica’s quest to uncover the truth and identify the genuine killer. Her search forms the backbone of the narrative, with each step bringing her closer to exposing the real criminal responsible for the murder. The story remains centred on her effort to right the wrong done to her student.
