Matlock & Michelle stand in the living room of Matlock's house placing pots to catch water from the leaking roof. However, the living room is on the ground floor of Matlock's two-story home.
When newly on crutches, Matlock takes a couple steps easily using both feet/legs when entering the courtroom. He states that he was late because he had to wait for someone to open the door. If he can walk with out crutches, he can stand and open a door.
