    What do Will's flaws have to do with anything? Everyone has flaws even Alicia. Last i checked they are still friends. It's not like we are expecting her to go sleep with him but she needs someone to talk to. I don't think Owen is set to return till the season finale anyway so Will it is since clearly Kalinda is not an option.

    Overall, i loved this episode even with that wacky case. I also totally expected Will to be rolling his eyes at that interview too, but was pleasantly surprised that he wasn't.

    What Alicia needs to do right now is talk to a close friend her brother, Will is not the answer he has to manny flaws and she can see them. Kalinda waited to long and also through the last 2 seasons she has been on a suggested push about Will to Alicia, what does that tell you there was backstabbing motives for her to have an affair with Will so as to think that would even the score.

    IF I was Alicia I would give notice and take the job at louis Cannings firm, start a new clean slate. As for Peter not telling her about Kalinda I see it as trying not to upset her after he found out she was working at her firm just leave it buried. I'm still in the dark as to why she changed her name and was let go by the SA office, there is still something real big with this picture. There are to manny loose ends and Childs had a big part in them.
    P.S. As for the interview Alicia had before the election showed that she put more interest in her job and less in the kids which showed me that family com

    Can someone tell me when Alicia found out about "Leela". I'm late to the party.

    I loved last night show. To bad Klinda couldn't tell Alicia herself. I felt so sorry for her to hear from the wrong person. Peter should have come clean a long time. Alicia needs to confront him and let him know what a pig he is. I hope that she runs for office and beats his ass....Love the show and can't wait for the next show:)

    I like the writing and broadness of this show. Religion but not judgementalism, truth coming out but most of all a woman who is doing good and paying a heavy price to keep her marriage and family intact in this day and time. A missed quality a LOT of women do that is missed by Hollywood. The realness of the court system and a glimpse of hope is refreshing. An amazing freshness and different show that stands out from all the others.

    What an episode, terrific, awesome. But should I say what a show, hope CBS will keep it. I don't understand why they haven't announced yet which show they renew. I agree a lot with this review. This episode is a mixture of so many different feelings. The law case, the election, Cary and Kalinda, Eli, Nathalie, Will, and finally Alicia. Funny, touching, sad and heartbreaking. What an intense hour. I'm not sure how the friendship of Kalinda and Alicia will survive to the news. Alicia needs someone to talk to. Who is she going to find? I hope Will will be here for her (someone she can rely on). Will ... I think he shows a lot of respect and love for Alicia. Don't know if anything will happen one of these days, but I hope he will be around as a friend.

    Alicia said the most important thing was her children and their love for their Dad/ She will be a lady about this but will continue to be so very deeply hurt. She was betrayed by her best friend and her husband. Peter will run for Senator, be elected, go off to DC and Alicia will continue saving the law firm each week.

    Great episode, but I seem to think that every week. So I should rather say great show. On the whole I agree with this review, especially about the scene when Will watches Alicia on TV. I also really enjoy watching Eli and Alicia's complicity grow. I think it shows a more personal side of Eli, which we didn't have at the beginning of the show. It also shows when he's with Natalie, that's why I like the scenes between the two of them, and the odd relationship they have. Last scene was really emotional too. Especially considering everything she's been through, and we hadn't really seen her cry until now. It has so much impact coming from a woman as strong as her.

    It was heartbreaking to see that final scene. I almost cried myself. But it just makes me want to know how this all pans out! They were definitely playing the whole "stepping stone office" theme in this episode. Will this issue affect Peter's (future) political career? Will the public even know? Will Alicia still work at LG knowing that her co-worker...slept with her husband? She's been having many unsolicited job offers and that was a running theme in a few previous episodes. Just so many questions!

    About having Kalinda tell her soon enough, no. That just wasn't going to happen. If she did that, Alicia wouldn't be up for that interview. And without that interview, no election win. And that wouldn't be a fun story now, would it?

    Yeah it was terrible watching Alicia figuring out that Kalinda slept with Peter... I hope she will go to Will and talk about it.

    I watched all the episodes of Gilmore Girls and loved Matt in it. And the scene between Kalinda and Cary (especially how he looked at Kalinda) reminded me of how he was on that show. I hope we will see more Cary in the upcoming episodes and season.

    I didn't really liked the case. But the role of America Ferrera was great. I hoped that she and Eli would kissed. But it is more in character that they didn't, so maybe it was for the better. I hope that she will back.

    Emmy voters take note of this episode. Foreign Affairs had everything television should be. The writing, performances and the timing is just flawless. The cameos were great and I kinda like in my opinion judge. I'll just finish by saying my intrigue has never had a bigger smile. It was like Will watching Alicia's TV interview.

    Wiley : Leela , but she doesn't exist. Unless you've heard of her ? Have you heard of her, Leela ..

    Wiley was definitely fishing but for more than a reaction. IMO

    It was terrible watching alicia crying in that last scene...betrayed by both her husband, and her best friend....although i knew it was coming, it was still hard to watch. Kalinda, Kalinda she will regret greatly not outing herself to alicia earlier...

    And Cary - well it seemed clear kalinda didn't quite know how to take him when he made his request - all these times when she has used him albeit with his concurrence - for him to come back apparently having dismissed the fact she has slept with peter and ask for a favor for himself...wow. There was a moment i thought she did show regret almost as if she realised here was another person she has lost cos its as if cary has decided to draw the line between them by asking for this favor. He seems to be stepping away personally from kalinda...so sad.

    Love Eli as always....really can't stand peter's mother..understand the doting mother thing but really, maybe reason he felt entitled enough to have an affair is cos his mother treats
