Previously on The Good Wife:
An hour ago, I resigned as

State's Attorney
of Cook County.

Dad told us he made mistakes.

Yeah, but not that.

GOLDEN:
Who first told you

of your husband's infidelity,
Mrs. Florrick?

CNBC. I saw it on the crawl
at the bottom of the screen.

PETER:
I'm glad you're making

a life for yourself.
It gives you a break.

ALICIA:
Well, I just wanted to say

thank you for
the opportunity.

It's a real lifesaver.

No. Glad you could
come aboard.

Looks like we share
an assistant,

so tell me when I'm
hogging her, okay?

And let the best man win.

You told him Peter
was lonely in prison.

Because he is.

Just don't go around me
by talking to my kids.

Jackie, it'll just have to wait
until next week.

JACKIE:
But Peter's expecting them

for his birthday.

Peter and I agreed
I'd bring the kids next week.

Their first visit
is a big deal.

I want to do it right.

And so, you need me
for how many nights late?

Just a couple,

and I shouldn't be too
late-- 11:00 or so.

What do you want me
to tell Zach and Grace?

Tell them I love them,
and I will call them tonight.

And Peter-- what do I tell him?

Jackie...

Okay, then.

Bye.

There she is.

Alicia, Marne Compton.

Hi.
Hi.

Bowdoin, 2005.
Summa cum laude.

She worked for
three years

at Kaplan & Cohick?

Personal assistant
to Mr. Cohick.

Oh. Why'd you leave?

There was an opportunity

with Habitat for Humanity

building an orphanage
in Tijuana.

Peace Corps. Belize.

Oh.

(Cary and Marne laugh)

And you know we only have money
for one assistant, Marne,

so we would have
to share you.

Oh, yes. Don't worry.

I'm used to high-pressured
environments.

I like action.

To me, it's all about
time management.

I know you're juggling three
or four cases at once,

and it's my job
to help catch any balls

that get dropped.

I love your boots.

Where did you
get them?
Oh, why thank you.

I got them at Saks Fifth Avenue.

They have a sale now, and
you can't believe the options.

Isn't she great?

Oh, yes.

So, should I make it happen?

Well, actually, let's
bring in a few more people.

I'll make some calls.

Sure, but we should do this
like voir dire or something.

Three peremptory
challenges, you know.

Hey, did you hear
about the rumors?

Stern is retiring.
Our Stern?

Yeah. We'll just be
Lockhart, Gardner.

I saw this happen
at my dad's firm--

two partners
losing a third.

It was like
Dawn of the Dead.

People fighting over turf.

Junior associates lining up
against each other.

Not us?
Oh, hey, I won't
if you won't.

We have such a good
working relationship.

Wow. They're still

on the Lakeshore crash?

I thought
we settled that already.

Nope. Today.

WOMAN:
That is our train.

It crashed.
Your clients crashed it.

Do I need to use

simpler sentences?
Yes,
Patti.

Please. I love it
when you patronize me.

Cross National Freight entrusted
your clients to drive our train.

They drove it too fast.

They derailed it,
causing millions in damage.

Luckily, it was a freight train
and nobody died.

Except our clients.

We should be suing you,
and not you us.

Except for this nagging
little problem, Patti.

That your company overworked
my clients

with double-digit shifts

and 18-hour days.

Oh, yes,
the sexy overtime evidence.

Juries love that.

Except for the fact
that my clients are heroes.

Except...
(Diane laughing)

Yes?

Except for the fact

that these three men

stayed with your train

to keep it from crashing
into a residential neighborhood,

saving untold lives.
Untold.

I love untold.

My bet is a jury

will, too.
(laughing)
Will.

We're not picking a jury
tomorrow.

Judge Parks is a
pro-business constructionist

who detests nuisance lawsuits
as much as I do.

He's going to grant my motion
to dismiss, and you know it.

And I know you know it.

So what do you want?

Make me an offer.

Damn it, Alicia, I thought

I said 3:00.
I'm sorry.

I love watching you, Will.

It's like Shakespeare
in the Park.

WILL: This is awkward.
I tried to keep it

so that you wouldn't
cross paths with the widows.

PATTI:
Heartstrings--
ouch, ouch--

being tugged.

What time is

their 60 Minutes interview?

5:00.

We may not
need a jury.

But, hey, what do I know?

It's just 60 Minutes.

We know how much they love
high-powered executives

and hate grieving
widows, right?

PATTI:
Mr. Harkin,

I'm putting
you on speaker.

HARKIN:
Uh, yeah, fine.

Even though it is

my belief
that we would win a countersuit

against your clients
for negligence,

we are willing to pay out
their pensions for ten years.

WILL:
Ten?! You kidding?

Does it come
with double coupons?

Are you comfortable
with that, Mr. Harkin?

No. 80 cents on the dollar.

You know, sir, these widows

are having trouble
paying their rent.

HARKIN:
What?!

One of them is about
to lose their house.

She has three
children.
HARKIN:
What? Who is that?

(quietly):
I'll get him up to a dollar.

You get them to agree.

Ooh, I have yoga
in half an hour.

After that, this deal is dead.

Their pension
for ten years?

It's a come-out offer.

Anything?

Pension for ten years.

How much do we
have in this?

Partner hours? 82.

Will they take it?

I don't know.
I don't think so.

We're bleeding here.

Hey, what was that all about?

With Overby?

Oh, Malcolm?
You know him?
Mm-hmm.

He's an old friend.
Just catching up.

So, uh, don't take
a lot of time with it.

Just do a basic
background check.

Malcolm's
an old friend.

What am I looking for?

Stability.

Kalinda, one last thing.

I need you
to keep this confidential.

I'll be splitting time
with Cross National Freight.

I'm not sure that's possible.

Well, if Will asks,

just say I'm having you do work
on Sheffrin-Marks.

I want an apology.

They worked my...
our husbands to death.

They tried to blame them for
this accident, and now they want

to pay ten years
on their pensions?

I'm sorry, Mrs. Underwood.

I don't want you
to apologize.

I want them to apologize.

They don't

apologize.
Money is their apology.

Well, I guess then
they must not be very sorry.

I think we
should take it.

I-I... I need
the money.

I'm a month away from
sleeping in my car.

My kids-- they still cry
for their dad at night.

Look at these
bills. I...

They're not even
paying John's overtime.

Because they want to starve us
into a settlement.

Let me talk
to her again, see what

they come back with.

But I think we all know
we're in the endgame here.

So, you've lost faith?

I believe Cross National Freight
overworked your husbands

to the point of exhaustion.

I believe that's why
the train crashed,

but I can't prove it.

And they can prove
the train was moving too fast.

I'm sorry, Linda.

So, you still want these,

denial of
overtime claims?

Yes. Everything you have.

We're trying
to build to a...

What?

Would you just give me a moment?

Alicia,

this offer is walking out
the door in ten minutes.

What?

This is the memo
in our discovery.

Mm-hmm.

This is the same memo
sent to our clients.

They left off three names.

You can go to yoga now.

We'll see you in court.

WILL:
The bottom line is

Cross National Freight
deliberately denied us discovery

by concealing Mr. Merriman
and two other department heads.

Your Honor, no one has been
denied discovery here.

If names were left off
documents, it was inadvertent.

Inadvertent? Is that what
they're calling Wite-Out

these days?

Your Honor, that is just...

Aah.

I'm sorry, but

I find
Mr. Gardener's charges

personally offensive.

Mr. Merriman and
these other two people

have nothing to
do with overtime.

Then why were they CC'd
on a letter denying it?

(Parks clearing throat)

Mr. Gardner, you don't have

enough here to convince a jury.

Your Honor,
with all due respect...

Don't all due respect me,
Counselor.

I'm not your high school
gym teacher.

On the other
hand, Ms. Nyholm--

inadvertent, my ass.

Mr. Gardner, how long

would it take
to depose these witnesses?

To properly prepare and depose,
I would say one month.

You have three days.

Three?

But, Your Honor,
that isn't...

Now you have two days.

Want to try for one?

No, thank you, Your Honor.

PATTI:
Your Honor, if I could
just interject here.

These executives
are very busy people.

Even two hours
out of their work day...

Ms. Nyholm, you just gave
Mr. Gardner back his third day.

Would you like
to give him a fourth?

No, Your Honor.
I'll stop.
Good.

We'll meet back here on Friday

to decide
whether a dismissal is in order.

Does anybody have anything
to say?

Okay.

Next case.

(gavel bangs)
BAILIFF:
Next on docket...

Cancel everything.

For the next 72 hours, we eat,
drink and sleep this case.

JACKIE: I wanted to bring you
a birthday cake.

(both laughing)

How's everything
at home, Mom?

Good.

She's working too much,
but that's about it.

Alicia?
Mm-hmm.

What did I say?

Every time you refer to
Alicia, you say "she."

Do I?
Mm-hmm.

Alicia came home
last night at midnight,

left this morning at 6:00.

I warned her about
Diane Lockhart.

No, no, it's the other one,
Will Gardner.

I mean, I'm glad
they're friends and all,

but he needs
to give her a break.

Day and night, she never stops.

Okay, so the goal is this.

I'll depose Merriman.

He's the VP of Operations.

That's who I think
Patti's hiding from us.

The other two--
what are their names?

Jonathan Eldredge
and Sarah Conley.

He's a systems engineer, and
she's in industry relations.

Okay, whatever you do,
just keep the depos going.

Just keep asking questions

so Judge Parks doesn't pull
the plug on this.

Hopefully, I draw enough blood
with Merriman,

they'll up their offer.

Remember, the point isn't
to go back to court.

The point is to get them
to open their wallets further.

ALICIA: And you're a mechanical
systems manager.

Is that correct,
Mr. Eldredge?
Yes.

And this says

that you ordered
a new public-address system

for passenger cars.

Could you explain?

Standard upgrade.
And this says

you authorized a new
coupling mechanism.

Is that right?
Yes. Standard
upgrade.

And this says-- let's see--

that you replaced
the automated LRS,

"Load Regulator System."

Standard upgrade.

Your rail traffic has doubled in

the last decade, but you've cut
your crews in half, correct?

There's more
automated equipment.

Trains are easier to drive.

And yet it still takes the same
amount of time to drive them.

Let the record
reflect

that Mr. Merriman shrugged.

Let the record reflect,
I shrugged, too.

So, Ms. Conley, you're saying
you have nothing to do

with approving
or denying overtime?

That's right.
And what about
David Merriman?

Has he ever approved
or denied overtime?

I don't recall.

Did any of the accident victims
work overtime

the week before
the Lakeshore crash?

I don't recall.
Did any

of them routinely
put in for overtime?

I don't recall.
Ms. Conley, are you married?

I don't re...

Oh, I'm so sorry, Ms. Conley.

I've got three clients
who lost their husbands--

must have been a Freudian slip.

The truth is,

these three employees had gone
24 hours without rest

when this accident
occurred.

No, no, they work hard,
sure, but...

You worked them hard,
didn't you?

I did my job, Mr. Gardner.

And what was your job,
Mr. Merriman? Tell us.

We pay these people well--
we expect results.

You're a lawyer, you work people
hard here at your firm?

You bet your ass you do.
This is America.

You work hard, get the job done,
whatever it takes.

I think we should
take a break.

Definitely.

Let Mr. Merriman
recompose himself.

This guy is a
walking disaster.

No wonder they
hid him from us.

You should've seen Patti.

She looked like she was ready
to give birth right there.

(chuckles)
How'd yours go?

Well,

I know more about trains
than I ever wanted.

Just keep it going.

Patti's on the phone
with her overlords

trying to up the offer.

If she does, can you get
the widows on the line?

Yeah, Linda said she'd stay
by the phone.

Thanks. You kept
them together.

I know that hasn't easy.

Oh, I didn't do anything.

You can just tell us the number,
Patti.

Have you ever known a fishing
expedition to be free, Will?

Three more days
for discovery--

that went both ways.
Oh, come on.

Our clients passed
every company drug test...

Yes, but this wasn't
the company's.

This was part of Underwood's
application

to renew his health insurance,
a week before the crash.

Amphetamines?
That's right.

Your client was on speed.

When I was

first starting out, I, uh,

I got a terrific
piece of advice,

and it's always stuck
with me and this is it:

Everything that happens
in a courtroom...

Who did you say he was again?

Malcolm Overby.

Oh.

Yeah, I think I've heard of him.

Back in the time
of Clarence Darrow,

it was a common practice
for people

to smoke in the courtroom.
So, do you work with him?

Currently.

Rumor is he might be
going to another firm.

I just hope he
takes me with him.

...Cuban cigar
and he starts smoking...

(phone buzzing)

Sorry.

Would you excuse me?

It's my mother.

I'll be right back.

(Overby continues talking)

Cross National
What's up?

is throwing an insurance drug
test at us for Underwood.

Could you check it out?

Sure, but tomorrow.

Uh, what? Why? What's up?

Diane's asked me
to do further work

on Sheffrin-Marks.

She what?

(laughter and applause)

I've gotta go.

I can tell from your
face, it's not good.

The company
has a drug test.

It says Jimmy had amphetamines
in his system.

(train whistle blows
in distance)

For the longest time

I didn't think
there was evil.

I just thought
there were people

who did good and
bad things.

But now...

(sighs)

Sorry.

That's the kind of conversation
Jimmy and I would have.

Linda, I have to ask,

did you know about this?

Alicia,

Jimmy never did drugs.

There's nothing to know about.

Go through your medicine
cabinet.

Bring me every pill
Jimmy's ever taken,

every pill he could've
accidentally taken of yours.

Could you do that?

Are we gonna win?

We're gonna fight.

ALICIA:
Cole v. Wolensky.

"Judge may exclude drug test

"if there's been a violation

of testing
procedure."

Judge Parks would rather
eat his own foot

than offer us relief on that.

Kalinda have any leads?

I...

No.

She's doing something
with Diane.

For Diane? What?

Something for Sheffrin-Marks.

(sighs)

What?

We've got a power vacuum here.

It makes people do...

interesting things.

Did she say anything
about Malcolm Overby?

No.

Well, I'm giving up
on law anyway.

I'm sick of it.

Back to the minors?

(chuckles)

I could've been a contender.

I liked watching you pitch.

Yeah, I had some moments.

We're the last
ones here.

Yep.

I should go.

Yeah.

Me, too.

(phone rings)

Yeah?

MAN:
Yeah, Mr. Gardener.
There's a woman down here

who insists on seeing
Mrs. Florrick.

(elevator bell dings)

Oh, Ms. Conley,

did you forget
something?

I'm not here.

I have a family.
I can't get messed up in this.

Okay. Let's talk.

No.

It's wrong what they're doing.

Blaming them
with that drug test.

Blaming them for something
they...

Something they...?

(elevator buzzing)

Newbury Heights.

Wait. What?

Newbury Heights.

I don't know what
you mean.
Find out.

What's that? What's that?
(toy rattling)

Is that
your toy?

What is that?
Is that your toy?

Is that what it is?

How old?

Oh, I'm so stupid.

(baby cooing)

I should've
just shut up.

I should've just
kept walking.

But that would've been wrong.

I thought you'd be different.

I thought after
what you went through...

with your family...

And you come here
to my house?

I'm sorry.

Then go.
I can't.

There are three mothers who are
widows now, Mrs. Conley...

It's not my fault.

But it's somebody's fault.

What do you want?

I looked into Newbury Heights.

I couldn't find anything.

I went back 50 years.

There's never been
an accident there.

It wasn't an accident.

It was a near miss.

And it wasn't one of our trains.

MAN:
Right. Phew.

Coming into Newbury Heights,
there's a nine degree curve.

That's where
we jumped the track.

Just managed
to get the brake on

before we hit
the commuter train.

Did anyone from your company
ever identify the problem?

Sure. Sure.

They identified me.

Said I was
going too fast.

But the speed gauge
never went above 32 mph.

I thought it was
mechanical.

Maybe a faulty
pressure sensor.

Isn't the pressure sensor part
of the load regulator sensor?

Trains, you know.

Love them.

So, if you upgraded the LRS,

wouldn't you have to replace
the pressure sensor, too?

Yeah. Fact is,
that's what they did,

after the near miss,
they upgraded the LRS.

Standard upgrade.

We've been going
after the wrong thing--

overtime records
and not faulty equipment.

They erased those memos
not to hide Merriman,

but the structural engineer,
our buddy Eldredge.

If we can prove
he was at Newbury Heights...

Yep. Previous knowledge.
We'll have a case

even Judge Parks can't
kick. Here's the deal:

We can't let Patti know
we're changing strategies.

I'll keep deposing
Merriman.

You re-depose Eldredge.

Be ready in
ten minutes.

Okay.

I think I have someone you'll
be more comfortable with.

(raspy voice):
I worked 19 years
as an assistant.

We called them secretaries
in my day.

(coughs)

And are you comfortable

with online research,
Mrs. Plack?

Online?

Oh, yeah, everything's
computers nowadays.

Don't worry,
I'm a quick study.

Hey, I like your
hair this way.

(coughs)
Yeah, I do.

It looked so dowdy on TV,

pulled back like that.

But that must've been
a hard day, huh?

What's the smoking
policy here, anyway?

What? I thought you two
would have a lot in common.

That does not count
as a preemptory.

Oh, Mr. Merriman's
is upstairs.

Yes, I thought I'd sit
in on this one today.

Get to know
you better.

Great.

Please.

Actually...

chairs aren't really
my friends these days.

I think I'll just stand.

So you're Will's new one?

Yes. I'm his new
junior associate.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

The way he looks at you:
that's what I meant.

I guess he finds
you a challenge.

Too many blond gigglers,

and why not go for someone
more substantial,

someone with interesting
history.

Mrs. Nyholm.

I know how this works--

we're going to try
and get into each other's heads,

try and unnerve each other.

Can I give you a little bit
of advice?

After the past seven months,
I'm vaccinated.

Fair enough.

Let's get started.

Mr. Eldredge, two months
before the Lakeshore crash,

you authorized

an upgrade
of the load regulator system

on all Cross National
Freight trains.

Can you explain why?

There wasn't
just one reason.

It was a change we'd
planned for some time.

( The Twilight Zone
ringtone playing)

And what about the LRS
in the train that crashed,

did you replace that one?

I don't believe we did.

The-the upgrade
takes some time,

and we couldn't have
all of our engines

out of commission
at once.

I understand that.

Tell me about Newbury Heights,

Mr. Eldredge?

What?

Tell me about it.

It's, uh...

I don't know what you mean.

June 21,
you went to Newbury Heights

to check out a near miss
collision, isn't that right?

Would you like to take a break?

If you were to learn
there was a problem

with a piece of equipment
on your trains, Mr. Eldredge,

you'd replace the part,
wouldn't you?

Of course I would.
And you'd make sure that

no trains were operating
with unsafe equipment?

Look, I know
what you're thinking.

No, you don't.

I never once...

(Patti cries out)
Ooh. Ooh.

My apologies.

A... a pang.

(exhaling)

We're gonna have
to break this off here.

Oh, come on. Objection.

Let the record reflect

deposition was suspended
for medical reasons.

And again, I-I apologize.

Mr. Eldredge.

Sorry.

It's okay.

Hi, Jackie. It's me.

I saw that you called.

(buzzing)

MAN (over P.A.):
Please obey all commands
and follow instructions.

(indistinct chattering)

Please obey all commands
and follow instructions.

Dad.

Dad.

Zach?

It's you!

I... I missed you.

I know.

Grace.

Go to him.

Grace.

Happy Birthday, Dad.

So, you still
a fish or what?

Yep, still a fish.

Just like in Oz.

They do shakedowns
every day?

Your Honor, Will Gardner.
This is my third message.

Defense counsel's
interrupted deposition

for the day and we...
(machine beeps)

Damn it.

He's lying.

What?

He knew exactly
what Newbury Heights was.

He said he was
in the office all day.

But you have to swipe that

every time you
exit and enter.

Which means we
can tell exactly

what time he came and went.

I can't get the
judge on the phone,

but if I hurry,
I'll catch him.

What are you doing?
Getting a court order

for Cross National
Freight's security records.

Find Kalinda, tell her to
meet me down at the courthouse.

(horn honking)

Hello.

(Overby talking quietly)

(camera shutter clicking)

Oh, listen,
I'll call you about that...

(singsongy):
Diane has a boyfriend.

What's the occasion?

Work.

It's just so pretty.

Thank you.

What time did you get in?

Late. You were asleep.

Thanks, by the way.

This should be the last
late night for a while.

I took Grace and Zach
to see Peter.

You did what?

I took Grace and Zach to see
their father for his birthday.

Jackie, I-I...

I-I'm thunderstruck.

I tried to phone you.

You tried to phone me?

We discussed this.

I was taking them next week.

It worked out perfectly,
seeing him.

They were perfect.

Jackie.

I am their mother.

It is my decision.

This of all things
is m decision!

I'm sorry.
It was spontaneous.

You don't supervise
my kids spontaneously.

You don't take them
to prison.

You don't just try and phone me.
You phone me.

You respect me as a mother
or you leave.

I am doing the best I can.

Well, join the club.

Overby's firm is
well capitalized,

excellent client base,

no ethics charges,

no bankruptcies,
no judgments.

But are you sure
that's what you're looking for?

I... don't know.

Should I be looking
for something else?

Well, that's like
asking a dentist

whether you should brush.

See what you can find out.

And, Kalinda, again,
this is just between you and me.

You understand?

Yeah.

Do you know how much
you pay jury consultants?

No.

$100,000 for three months work.

That sounds about right.

Do you know how much I make?

I have a feeling
I'm finding out.

A fourth of that.

That sounds outrageous.

Yeah, it does, doesn't it?

Subpoenaed records
of security entrances

from May to August.
Thanks.

So, Kalinda, can I ask you...

Hmm?

This thing
you're doing with Diane,

does it have anything
to do with Malcolm Overby?

No.

It doesn't?

No, you can't ask me.

It's just...

If he's coming on as a third
partner, Will should know.

You can't ask me
and I can't tell you

but don't conclude
from what I'm saying
it's what you think.

Okay.

Can you be any more specific?

No.

Wait, here's the
date, June 21.

It would take him
about two hours

to get out
to Newbury Heights.

He leaves the
office at 6:42 p.m.,

and he comes back...

An hour later.
That's not enough time.

What about the next day?

Same thing.

9:48 p.m.,

comes back at 10:33 p.m.

Wait.

That's someone else.

Oh, you're right.
That's Sarah Conley.

Oh, here he is.

Eldredge...

he left and came back
a few minutes later.

That's interesting.

What?
Look.

See, here it is again.

Sarah Conley leaves within
a few minutes of Eldredge,

she comes back
a few minutes after him.

Same here, 9:30 p.m.

Me, too...

8:45 p.m.

And on August 5, the night
of the Lakeshore crash,

same thing.

They're always the last two
working together at night.

Yeah, well, so are we.

Yeah, but they're
leaving and returning

within a few minutes
of each other on foot.

And you know what's across
from their building?

The Stanford Plaza Hotel.

I think they were
having an affair.

(door opens)

Jonathan Eldredge
is denying everything.

That's not my problem.

All the nights you went

to the hotel with him
across the street,

that is your problem.

Oh, my God.

Sarah, I don't care
about your personal life.

That's your business.

All I care about
is what he said to you

the night of the accident,
that's all.

(baby fussing)

(man talking quietly)

Shh. It's okay.

He wanted to talk;
he was so upset.

He said he knew for a while

there was a problem
with the pressure sensor.

He'd been trying
to fix it quietly.

Sarah, I need to demonstrate

that Eldredge knew
about the problem

before the accident.

But there's no document,
there's no smoking gun,

and I don't have the time
to find one.

All I've got is you.

I can't testify!

This isn't about
the affair, Sarah.

This is about the accident.

The only way I know
about the accident

is because of the affair, and
I will have to talk about it.

If I don't, they'll bring it up.

They'll say
I'm getting back at him,

that I'm bitter.

You know how they'll
twist this around.

There's no other way.

(door opens, baby crying)

I'm sorry, hon.
Dylan only wants you.

(baby crying)

Is everything all right?

Yeah, fine.

I love you.

(crying continues)

(door closes, crying stops)

How old did you say Dylan was?

Three months.

It's not just me.

It's my husband,
it's my other kids,

it's a baby.

They have nothing to do
with this,

but if you make me testify...

Please don't do to me
what somebody did to you.

MAN:
Wow, you are really
obsessed with him.

Not obsessed. Intrigued.

So, is he seeing anyone?

So that's what
this is about.

You want me
to introduce you?
No.

I was just...
OVERBY:
Introduce whom?

Malcolm Overby.

Kalinda.

Kalinda what?

Kalinda Smith.

(laughs)

Uh, I'm a lawyer.

My firm threw this party.

Oh.

What do you do?

I crash other
people's parties.

(chuckles)

So, if I gave you my card,

what are the chances
you'd use it?

I'd say pretty good.

Use it
however you want.

So, I take it you have
some information.

Yeah.

I looked deeper
into Mr. Overby,

and I don't think he's a good
candidate for partnership.

Based on my
investigation,

he appears to be
nonexclusive.

Nonexclusive?

In pursuit of
other options.

Openly in pursuit.

Are you sure?

Positive.

The firm can do better.

Well, thank you, Kalinda,

for your discretion
in this matter.

Always.

And, Kalinda,
let's talk tomorrow

about renegotiating
your contract.

I'd like that.

This is it.

Every pill
in our medicine cabinet.

And this... this is
a prescription Jimmy got

a month before
the accident.

It's for allergies.

Do you think that could be it?

It could be.

The drug test didn't screen
for pseudoephedrine.

Not in this dosage.

Thanks, Linda.

Have a good night.

You, too.

(dramatic music plays on TV)

ALICIA:
Was it frightening?

GRACE:
No.

I just... I don't
like him in there.

I like seeing
Dad in a suit.

Yeah, me, too.

So, you're okay?

Yeah.

I mean, I'm
mad at him,

but he's
still Dad.

What about you?

You look sad.

No.

It's just this case
I'm working on.

Might have to do something
I don't want to.

Something?

You know, like what
happened to us.

Oh.

Well, you said "might."

Is there another way?

Not that I can think of.

Well, you're a
lawyer, right?

You have to represent
your client.

Even if it means
hurting another family?

Well, if you didn't,

you'd just hurt
your client, right?

You have to
do your job.

You can't just
not do your job.

So, three days later,
and you still

have depositions to conduct?

Your Honor,
Ms. Nyholm stomped out

of Mr. Eldredge's
deposition

two days ago,
and we have been constrained

with questioning Mrs. Conley
and Mr. Eldredge ever since.

As melodramatic

as Mr. Gardner's account is,

Your Honor,
I think the last time

I stomped out of anywhere
was the third grade.

(chuckles)

Unless I've grown bigger
than I thought.

(clears throat)

Uh, we ask, Your Honor,

for an open deposition,
so that you may rule...

They're going to force her
to testify in open court?

If she denies the affair,
they'll accuse her of perjury.

Then, everything she says

in court
will get thrown out.

(Parks clears throat)

Who are you deposing?

Ms. Sarah Conley,
Your Honor.

(whispering):
Please don't do this.

I'm so sorry.

Mrs. Conley,
what did Mr. Jonathan Eldredge

tell you
on the night

of August 5,

a few hours after
the Lakeshore crash?

Objection, Your Honor.

No foundation.

Ms. Florrick has yet

to establish
access.

WILL:
Your Honor, do we need
to establish access?

They work in the
same company.

But in vastly different
departments.

Sustained.

Ms. Conley, where were you
on the evening of August 5

after the Lakeshore crash?

I was in a hotel room downtown.

Were you alone?

No.

I was with Jonathan Eldredge.

*

Mr. Harkin, can...
can you hear us?

HARKIN (static crackles):
No, no, that's good enough.

Where is your
assistant?

I don't know. She quit.

It's very hard to find
a good assistant these days.

Mr. Harkin, I'm going to make
our final offer now.

HARKIN:
Go ahead.

I think you can see
this meets

all of your demands
and then some.

Under one condition:
that we don't go to trial.

I think we can handle that.

There is one other thing.

They want an apology.

Excuse me?

HARKIN:
Fine.

Mr. Harkin?

Just settle this thing,
will you?

Well, Patti...

it's always
a pleasure.

Yep.

Until next time.

Mrs. Florrick.

(laughs)

(indistinct murmuring)

Excuse me.
You got a minute?

Sure.

This one looks pretty good,
and if you don't like this one,

I think we need to start
looking at the new crop

of Ivy Leaguers.
Hmm.

Courtney, this is
Alicia Florrick.

Hi.

Hi.

(buzzer sounds, man speaks
indistinctly over P.A.)

I didn't expect you.

Spur of the moment.
Ah.

Sorry I missed
your birthday.

The kids said
the visit went well.

Yeah, they...
they look great.

Zach's almost as
tall as I am.

Three months,
then suddenly, boom.

(sighs)

So, um...

Mom tells me you're working
on a hard case.

Yep.

I guess you're putting in
a lot of hours with Will.

A lot of time to think
about things in here.

A lot of time
out there, too.

He's not what he
seems, Alicia.

Peter, if it's one thing
I'm learning...

nobody is.

Gardner acts like
he's this good guy

and he's everybody's
best friend,

but I could tell you a
few things about him.

(laughs softly)

What?

Can we... (laughing)

Can we at least acknowledge

how ironic
this conversation is?

(laughs)

I love you.

I was thinking about our
apartment on 81st Street.

Remember?

No air-conditioning.

It was so hot you'd...
you'd run around

in that T-shirt you got
from the Mexican restaurant

below.

All I could think was,

God, you were the most
beautiful woman in the world.

Then?

No. Then and now.

I don't want
to lose you.

I don't know what happened.

I lost my way.

I... I got on a power trip.

Don't.

Don't blame it on that.

(sighs)

I'm sorry.

No, it's me.

I understand.

I understand.

But don't give up on me.

Come on, don't give up on me.
