Well the 100th episode will be mindsex and sexytimes flashbacks galore per all the spoilers I have read. In the arc of the season's storytelling I have no idea what that will mean for Alicia and Will. At some point the ballot stuffing will come out and I am not sure how Alicia will react.

He already has a convertible.

I think he wants her to put in a good word with Peter so he gets appointed to be the head justice of the state supreme court.

I think we might see an interaction but it will be the result of twisty writing. If Diane and Alicia can have a rapprochement as the Kings alluded to-then I can envision more Kalinda, Cary and Alicia scenes in the future.

No I think she did accept that Peter was guilty. Her issue was with Alicia blaming Peter. Jackie couldn't understand why Alicia was blaming her son. In Jackie's worldview its shameless hussies who tempt good men to do the wrong thing. Further, Jackie believes a good woman and good wife always stands by her man. She…

We will never forget what was done to the soft serve.

Entertaining episode though not TGW firing on all cylinders.

I hated Will until season 2 for the reasons you mention. But then I saw his vulnerability with Alicia and I began to feel differently. He's still a a fratboy just a more likeable one to me. Now I see the motivations beneath the douche-i-ness.

Strangely, I took the way he kept mentioning Innocence Project/Barry Scheck as the worst kind of name dropping/ass kissing and personal aggrandizement. And I believe he did that work as an intern if I remember correctly so not like he lost money doing it. But I guess that was just me being cynical.

Well I am glad you wrote it out. Your description of Cary as a situational idealist makes sense to me.

That's really strange. In earlier seasons I read Cary as being the cutthroat pragmatist one (Will-like) and Alicia all idealist do gooder and convinced of her moral superiority (Diane-like).

I read an interview with the Kings where they said the new lawyer that Will hires in the promo for next week is going to be an antagonist to Kalinda. I don't know if it will be an interaction like Kalinda-Blake but maybe just echoes of that dynamic.

Anybody notice how many times Diane rolled her eyes at Will this episode?

Truth is always "stranger" than fiction.

That happened to me! I thought Sims got in a car accident or something hence no coverage. And it wasn't coming up in google searches either. I only found it a full 24 hours later.

Exactly! which is why she lies to herself about it being a prime motivation. She had other reasons to leave (moral compromise, being dicked around by the partners etc) and could have left at any time (remember Canning's multiple offers?) But she didn't then because she wanted to be loyal and didn't want to take the…

Maybe he is a love child of Veronica and some other man… that's the canon I created in my head because he creates that dissonance for me too.

I am not so sure about that. TGW is good for CBS' bottom line:

I gave up on the Walking Dead half way into season 3 and that was while binge watching. They do a good cliffhanger for every episode but I don't understand the acclaim for this show. And this is coming from someone who adores speculative fiction and drama.

Yes!
