The Sentence

S02E22·6.5·August 4, 1996·1h·Syfy

When Dr. Jack Henson, an ambitious inventor comes up with a "virtual prison," government officials are interested in its cost efficiency. Rather than life sentences, criminals would only have to spend hours being subjected to harsh treatment. When an innocent man's life is at stake the doctor must submit himself to his own invention—while learning the true meaning of justice.
