The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 paid tribute to a man named Ken Kern. The sixth episode, “50/50,” showcased a title card dedicated to his memory. As such, fans are curious about his identity.
Here are all the details about Kern and his contribution to the popular legal drama series.
Why did Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 give tribute to Ken Kern in Episode 6?
The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 gives tribute to Ken Kern in Episode 6, as he was part of the team.
Kern reportedly worked as an accountant on the series (via The Cinemaholic). He has passed away, but the details of his death haven’t been confirmed as of now. The show then decided to remember him in the sixth episode as it ended with a title card, “In Memory of Ken Kern.” Episode 6’s emotionally heavy tone perfectly suited the decision to add the tribute here instead of any other episode.
Season 4’s story follows Mickey Haller’s own fight for justice as he is accused of killing his former client, Sam Scales. He sets out to prove himself innocent by proving himself innocent. In Episode 6, the prosecutor ended up dropping the previous charges but came up with new ones. As a result, Mickey was behind bars once again. The judge left him with two options: either return to prison and have a speedy trial or stay on bail and drop his chance of a speedy trial.
Thus, he is left torn as both choices intend to create trouble for him. Lorna then informed him about the death of his mentor due to a cardiac arrest. This news further took a toll on Mickey, who is already trapped in a complicated murder case.
All episodes of The Lincoln Lawyer Season 4 are available to stream exclusively on Netflix.
