Does "prime" here mean "justice"?

Thanks in anticipation.

@oristarA,
No, prime does not mean justice.

The article actually ex[plains quite clearly what 'prime' means in the context, which enables the reader to understand why the title used it in a play on 'Pride and Prejudice" (the title of a very famous novel).

@centrox,

As I read it, "prime" appears to mean "psychologically prepare." Am I on the right track?
