Even after all her conniving and shmoozing with the enemy-I always know who's side Kalinda is going to be on.She is the best actress on TV,and I look forward to second guessing her every move! What would have been the point of Alicia telling her kids, since the affair is over(for now anyway). Eli is a pleasure to watch,and David Lee is no longer getting on my nerves, but is humorous instead of annoying.The best show on TV , IMHO.

Loved this episode.... Glad to see Will get off on charges & WSC made to look like a fool. Will's lawyer cracks me up the way she is. I think Alicia definitely should go ahead & tell the kids. As for Eli, I love him! He is so dang funny.

I like how Peter has always tried to redeem himself. He made a mistake and he admitted it rather than making excuses. He tries to change and make things better in the office and at home. He doesnt want to do anything shady anyone. Alicia on the other hand is apparently now building up the courage to do so. She told Peter to make the thing with Will to go away. She doesnt care if he does illegal things at the office as long as he doesnt do bad at home. I am glad he told Alicia no. If he wants to change, he has to make changes both places.

Hi, I dont know if you guys actually read the comments that we post but I hope you do because I have a lot to say!
I liked the way that the will and his team were on the stand. It was funny and great but I dont like the way the writers boil everything up and then no consequences. For example, Dana said that Kalinda had to choose between Will and Alicia. If she did not help them with Will, Alicia would be disbarred. Windy said that if Alicia walks out the room she would be held in contempt and be arrested. NOTHING HAPPENS!!! The writers always makes the prosecuters give empty threats! no one pursued the Alicia storyline. I just feel like every week they make a big deal about something happpening and then the end they some how always win and there are never any consequences. I think it would be nice if they could be a little more relistic about it.

Love Carey and how he continues to "be on their side". Felt Alicia should have told her children and I love Peter. Yes, he had his affairs but she is his wife and no one wants to hear things like that about their wife, estranged or not. I don't think he has a big ego, as mentioned in one comment he's just a politician! Couldn't see why the Grand Jury thought Peter & the Judge were in cohoots, maybe they should have come up with a slightly different ending, but loved how Will put WSC to rest. Also his attorney is awesome! Not a big fan of Will, but he did a good job last night.

What in Sam Hill is up with all these damn hiatuses? Come back for one show after the holidays, take 2-3 weeks off, back for another show and now on hiatus for another 3? Really? Gets old after a while...

I would have loved for Alicia to lay a smackdown on Peter, would have been nice to see. This all started on his issue with her sleeping/seeing someone else, even though he really has no right to speak of anything. I just wish someone would have put down his ego a little more. He bothers me.

Also...I was disappointed that Alicia didn't tell her kids. I'm not saying she needs to be perfect, but now plenty of people know....there's no telling how/when that information gets out, and it won't be pretty for her when it does.

Loved the episode. It was conveniently wrapped up...I anticipated Will being indicted, honestly. WSC's questions regarding the Willicia affair were totally inappropriate. I think any competent attorney would know that that line of questioning might hurt their case, as Alicia's truthful answers might establish Will's questionable ethics, but had nothing to do with judicial bribery.
Also loved Cary sticking up for Alicia in a subtle way by confronting WSC during the hearing. Every episode, I wish he were a real person so I could marry him! Too much information? Oh well. Love me some Matt Czuchry!

I thought it was an excellent episode. In contrast to "Bitcoin for Dummies" which most people agreed was boring, this epi was full of scene stealing performances and excitement. The end was pretty predictable-I mean did anyone seriously think TGW was going to make Will actually go to jail? He's too much of a main character. But nevertheless, it was fun to see the possibility.
Love love love David Lee and Eli together. They crack me up. I think Stacy is irritating also, but her and Eli's games were entertaining.
I am interested to see how Peter reacts now that he knows for sure Alicia and Will were intimate. Before, it was just rumors. And I was also disappointed that Alicia didn't disclose her relationship with Will to her kids. I really think after that much buildup, they are not going to care nearly as much as she is worried about.
And finally, 3 weeks until the next episode??! Ahhh!

Loved how Carey continues to be morally grey and a class act at the same time.
Research groups have conducted polls for years testing people's knowledge of current events such as who is the Vice President, name one of your state's senators, etc. The results are usually not encouraging. Explains the Jeff Foxworthy show "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader". So the panel is true to life.

I think Dana was upset because she fancied herself prettier and smarter than Kalinda's lie made her feel. To realize the person you thought you were playing was instead playing you must not be a very nice feeling. I don't blame her for the slap.
I dislike Stacy on account of her irritating giggle. But I do like her storyline.
The juror lady should have realized who Peter was based on the testimonies. I also think they should have recognized Peter - not from the election because not everyone follows politics, but from his scandal because apparently it was so well known that it was on talk shows like Chelsea Handler. The conclusion did feel very rushed and awkward, but it really didn't have more time since it's only one episode long.
As for the episode, I loved how Will dealt with WSC. It was beautiful.

Who was the female actor playing the part of the profiler, supporting Will's case, in the episode "Fishing for Dirt" on Jan 29/12?
Alicia: The law is an odd thing.
