Two Can Play That Game! ‘The Good Wife’ Recap!

The Good Wife Pants On Fire (5)

I know I’m super late with posting the second to the last episode of “The Good Wife”, with that said, here are the highlights for that episode:

  • The IRS was investigating Kalinda for the checks she has recievd from unanimous people. It turned out that the main reason she was investigated was about the work that she did for the Bishop.
  • Alicia got a salary bump!
  • Eli, David and Julius were still after Will’s position in the firm since he is suspended.
  • Alicia’s old home was up for sale. She went to see it. During this time, she went down memory lane of her experiences and incidents that happened inside the house.
  • Alicia was invited to be on  the panel with other high rank people (judges, pastor, e.t.c.) in the society to solve a police shooting case. The panel was a court hearing but it was not in a courtroom. It was in a room where the representatives on the panel sat in a single lined row and faced the witness or individual who was on trial. This is where Alicia was introduced to Mike, who was leader of the panel. Alicia, being a good lawyer found clues to solve the case but Mike did not like that she was going to be the hero and save the day. It turned out that Alicia’s husband, Peter hid evidence from that case. Mike gave Alicia two options: it’s either she shuts up and let the case stay as it is or she can solve the case which involves investigating the state attorney’s office (Peter’s office).  Given that ultimatum, Alicia recused herself!

Now, the last episode of “The Good Wife” marked the beginning of dirty political game. It started when Alicia saw Mike, the SOB who gave her two choices towards the end of the panel hearing. He supposedly claimed that he came to inform her that she had to write a minority report about the case even though she recused herself. Mike used that visit as a political gain because the next day, he told the media that Alicia invited him into her office and told him not to investigate her husband concerning the shooting case. Mike wanted to destroy Peter’s reputation before he decides to run for governor. Obviously, Alicia felt bad and decided to talk to Eli about it. Eli told her there is nothing he could about it and she just have to deal with the situation until it all goes away. The next day, Alicia went to Mike’s office and confronted him about all the lies he was saying to the media. Mike tried to convince Alicia that she was the one that said those things.  Alicia told Mike if Peter were to run for governor, Peter was going to beat him.

Alicia went back to Eli and told him to convince Peter to run for governor and that she would think about helping Peter during the campaign. Peter finally met Mike in an elevator ride, they exchanged words. Peter told Mike to leave each other’s family out of the issue. Mike told Peter that if he runs for governor, Alicia is going to feel the pain the most because he was going to go after her. Peter promised Mike that he is going to come after him with everything he’s got. With that said, may the best man win and let the dirty political game begin!

In other news, here are the highlights for other juicy incidents:

  • Alicia finally talked to Jackie about why Jackie bought their old home. Jackie said she had great memories in that house and she was buying it for Peter (her son). Alicia threatened to keep her from her grandchildren if she buys the house. Alicia also called Peter and told about what his mother did. Peter met with his mother and harshly told her to not buy the house. Few hours after that meeting , Jackie was laying on a bed in the hospital. She had a stroke.
  • After so many years, Eli finally slept with his ex-wife. It’s about time! Keep in mind that Eli is managing his wife’s campaign for a position in the state’s office and is also managing Peter. But unfortunately, one of Peter big supporters gave Eli a choice to either drop his wife as a client and support Peter or keep his wife and lose him and others as supporters for Peter. Peter’s big supporters told Eli that they already have a candidate for the position that Eli’s wife is campaigning for and they would appreciate it if she did not run..  Eli broke the news to his ex-wife and she was pissed.
  • With Alicia by his side, Peter decided to run for governor.

Will Is Back? Katlin Pregnant? Peter & Sex?!? ‘The Good Wife;’ Season 3, ep. 17 recap.

The last episode of  ‘The Good Wife’ had a lot going on at certain scenes. I had to really pay attention because everything happened so fast. I taught I was going to lose track. I mean, first Alicia was dealing with the case, then the kids called, then she called Diane, then she called Katlin, Eli was on the phone, Kalinda was asking questions and all this happened at one once! I was like OMG! But anyways, the case Alicia was dealing with involved Mr. Colin Sweeney (yes, the annoying and sarcastic man who was accused of killing his wife in a earlier episode) and a company called Herald Equity. Alicia, Mr Sweeney’s lawyer, and Eli accompanied him (Sweeney) to a conference. While Mr Sweeney was on stage talking, an ex female employee of Sweeney’s interrupted him by saying  he sexually harassed her and that the product was the child she was holding in her arms. Of course, Sweeney denied having sexual intercourse with her.

On the other side of town, Peter asked Cary to find out which of his co-workers had sex in his (Peter) office. EWWW! Maybe Cary should first start with himself  since he is the king and expert in sleeping with co-workers. Back at the firm, Will was now allowed to stay in his office and update his cases with other lawyers  who were handling these cases. He cannot however help them with the case or practice law. I have a feeling he is going to break these rules because Will and rules don’t go together. But I could be wrong!

The Paternity test came back POSITIVE. Sweeney IS the father. Somewhere along the line, Mr Sweeney and his baby’s mother called a truce. Sweeney decided to have a family with his baby mama and son. Lord help that little boy because he will need it!

Cary found out his co-workers that had sex in Peter’s office. Apparently, it was a gay couple, who decided to experiment their skills on Peter’s sofa. Peter fired them. Cary confessed to Peter that he had slept with a co-worker in the past. However, Peter did not punish him. He  told him not to repeat it again. But Cary insisted that he should be punished or else he and Peter were going to lose some  respect around the office since everyone already knows Cary’s sexual affair with his co-worker.

 

Big Highlights!

Alicia was threatened by Katlin’s working skills because she was stepping up her game tremendously and Diane was noticing her hard work a lot.

Katlin is resigning from the firm because she is in love, pregnant and getting married.

Alicia got emotional when she visited her old house. It was up for sale.

Alicia is looking for a new place!

‘The Good Wife’ Season 3 ep. 16 recap: After The Fall

I know I skipped an episode and I’m late for posting the recap of the last episode. To sum up the second to the last episode in one sentence: Will was suspended for six months because of the forty-five thousand dollars he took from a client fifteen years ago. Now last episode’s theme was attaining power. While Alicia was busy solving the case of a woman who jumped off the cliff and committed suicide while filming a documentary, Will was home writing a book and enjoying his suspension with his sisters. Meanwhile, back at the firm, a couple of people like Julius, David Lee and even Eli were already asking for Will’s position. Will has not been gone for a month and his position is already up for grabs.

On the other side of town, Peter Florrick was busy trying to further his campaign for governor. He met with Dayna Brazil. Peter tried to convince Dayna that she should give him the keynote but she wasn’t buying his argument. Dayna informed Eli that she called around to ask about Peter but she didn’t hear anything positive from anyone, including his supporters. After Peter and Eli left, Eli immediately made a lot of phone calls on behalf of Peter and his campaign.

During the ongoing trial, Alicia asked her assistant, Katlin to cross-examine the witness in court. Diane walked into the courtroom just in time to watch Katlin cross-examine the witness. From the look on Diane’s face, it seemed like she was impressed with what she saw. Diane asked Katlin to meet with her afterwards.

After Eli finished making the phone calls, he met with one of Peter’s old friend, Hawthorn Baker, from his past. Baker told Eli that if he wants to hear good things about Peter, Eli needs to get him a job at the state attorney’s office (Peter’s office). Eli met with Peter and told him that there is a possibility he might not get the keynote. He further explained to Peter that the only way he could get the keynote was to hire Baker and the rest will be taking care of. At first, Peter didn’t want to do it because it was against his policy but when Eli put on his ‘I’m going to drop you as a client’ face, Peter had no choice but to say yes. Peter informed Cary to make room for Baker AKA fire or demote the person who currently holds the position.

Highlights…

Alicia told David Lee she no longer needed him as her divorce lawyer

Julius wants Eli’s vote of taking Will’s place

Katlin was promoted to litigator and Diane wants Alicia to share her secretary with Katlin

Will’s sisters tried to set him on a date with Kalinda (lol) and
