He did say something about not being back until Thanksgiving, though, so he was leaving for internship + college, I guess. It kind of seemed like a lot to be leaving the night of graduation and not planning to even see you mom for another 6 or 7 months. Made me feel quite sad for Alicia - another kind of loss in her…

Yeah, I definitely thought that he had some sudden realization that he'd been in love with her all along or something. I was thinking "well, that's certainly an odd way to end the season," but then, DUH, I should've known that such a wondrous look on Eli's face could only be produced by thoughts of political scheming.

From the beginning, I think Alicia has basically been using The whole Florrick-Agos situation for her own convenience. I don't really mean that in a horrible way, but even when they were setting up the firm, she had different motives from the rest of the Lockhart-Gardner fourth-years (she really just wanted to get…

Yes, you're right - I knew there were some moments I had forgotten about, because I knew that there had been a few reasons why I'd felt at least a tiny bit bad for him. Yes, I think there was a part of Peter that really did want to be with back with her solely for personal reasons, but it seemed those feelings didn't…

I was also disappointed that she said she wouldn't divorce him, but I definitely get it - it means Peter won't have to face a divorce scandal in office, and it means Alicia can continue to attract clients because she's the governor's wife. There are plenty of people out there who separate but never divorce (or wait…

Agreed, especially since that scene had been shown in the previews. I mean, I understand that having it at the end works in the story in the sense of that it seems to be the culmination of Alicia's unraveling throughout the episode. But they had already used too much of the scene in the preview, so I felt like I was…

Yeah, people are generally advised to not make any big life changes in the months after a traumatic event, but that doesn't stop people from doing it anyway. I have no idea where the kids were. I wasn't really thinking about it as I was watching that particular scene, but there have been a lot of times on TGW where…

Yeah, I think he's definitely had some redeeming moments - not just in helping Alicia professionally, but from the beginning of the series, there have been moments when he's tried to make amends personally. And there have been times when I've almost felt a bit sorry for him, I think because he portrays that brand of…

Yeah, it was definitely pretty obscure - and she looks so different that I really only recognized her by her voice (in addition to the dancing). Her character had always seemed out-of-place to me, and I was a bit disappointed to realize it was her in this episode, as I really didn't want Alicia to be interrupted right…

I thought it was weird to bring the tutor back, too, but it also kind of served as an interesting juxtaposition to Alicia's emotional state. It was yet another reminder that the world goes on even when you're grieving - it seemed almost cruel that at a moment when Alicia desperately needed to be alone, some weirdo…

I think custody disputes can get hung up on weird, random stuff (and I think it often depends on the judge involved), but yeah, Alicia's approach definitely seemed wayyy out there, but I guess Alicia was pretty "out there" herself emotionally. So, yeah, I think it was far more illustrative of Alicia's state of mind…

I've got a feeling that Canning probably won't stay with they firm for too long, or that some more shuffling is going to go on. Given the circumstances under which he's brought in, and also the nature of his character (in the past, there have been times when it seemed like Canning might be working his way deeper into…

Yep, that was the former tutor (looking quite different, but being as quirky as ever!)

I think I read in an article (or maybe an interview with the Kings?) that they're open to the idea of having Finn as a future romantic interest, but are waiting to see how things develop on the show (and waiting to see what kind of chemistry Julianna and Matthew Goode have) before going that route. But I was in a…

I was wondering that, too. It looked like she had a bad fake tan or something. Whatever it was, I found it a bit distracting.

Well, I think some degree of suspension of disbelief is required with most shows, but I think there are a couple of reasons for the way Alicia was received the way she was. One, she's the governor's wife, and her name/face can grant her a lot of access without having to explain herself (and I think she wouldn't have…
