Damages Season 2 DVD
Gripping legal drama Damages returns for a second thrilling season on 31 August, 2009, courtesy of Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.
Containing 26 episodes, Damages - Season 2 follows the turbulent lives of Patty Hewes (Academy Award® nominee Glenn Close, TV’s The Shield), the nation's most revered and reviled high-stakes litigator and her bright, ambitious young protégé Ellen Parsons (Rose Byrne, Marie Antoinette).
Also starring Tate Donovan (TV’s The O.C.), Anastasia Griffith (Lipstick Jungle) and Academy Award® winner William Hurt (The Incredible Hulk).
Season 2 will also be available to buy in a box set with Damages - Season 1, in which the brilliant but ruthless Patty becomes embroiled in a class action lawsuit targeting Arthur Frobisher (Ted Danson, Saving Private Ryan, TV’s Cheers), one of the country's wealthiest CEOs.
As Patty battles Frobisher and his attorney, Patty’s new assistant Ellen learns what it takes to win at all costs -- and that lives, not just fortunes, are at stake.
Struggling to cope with her fiancé’s murder, Ellen Parsons (Rose Byrne) sets her sights on those she holds responsible, Arthur Frobisher (Ted Danson) and Patty Hewes (Glenn Close). Looking to ensure that Frobisher pays the ultimate price, Ellen cooperates with an FBI investigation of Patty.
But when expert witness Daniel Purcell (William Hurt) looks to Patty for help in exposing a large energy company’s dumping of toxic waste, and then calls on her again to defend him when he’s suspected of murdering his wife, the secrets of their longtime association unravel, leaving a complex conspiracy where nothing is as it seems.
As the various players work every angle to shield their own misdeeds while undermining friends and foes alike, Ellen is drawn deeper into a series of traps in which loyalty and trust are sacrificed and Patty pulls all the strings as she seeks justice for her clients.
