I really hope Alicia doesn't buy the house. I just don't know why she would want it, both from a practical and emotional standpoint. Buy her apartment, if anything.
I thought it was an ok episode but it didn't excite me. I was expecting the return of Tammy to be more eventful, I wonder if she is coming back for additonal episodes?

I will take whatever direction the writers lead me. This is such a great show with a great cast and every week is a surprise. The guest stars last night were terrific and yet the usual characters all had a chance to shine also. the boardroom scenes with the bickering is hilarious. Diane is outstanding and the dual personalities is so well done.

One of the reasons I like this show is that it portrays a real grown-up woman. It isn't a romantic comedy and it isn't a "fight for your rights and win" show. Because standing up to the boss rarely works in real life. Yes, there is a lot of dramatic license taken with "real life," but please don't rob the show of its complexities. Peter isn't any more of a mess than are real people in his position. People aren't "good" or "bad." They are a much more interesting mix of both. My preferred outcome would be Alicia and Peter getting back together with a more nuanced understanding and appreciation of each other. Have no idea where the others are/should be heading. Just make it interesting.

I think Kalinda is definitely hiding something...............
Alicia just needs to make up her mind already........I don't think she should go back to Peter or the old house.............
And how long before Will's presence at the firm REALLY backfires..............

Isn't Alicia's temptation re buying that same house more her yearning for less complications and good times in life which she thought she once had when living there in the past years? Her balances and time/energy are so different now and soon will be even more so with the kids off to college. I can't see her in that house or being without Will. Peter is just not much in her realm of values. Surface power players don't ring the bell of real hearts and minds.

I loved this EP! Was so freakin amazing!
I think that Alicia buying the house is a step closer for her to end up with Peter at some point. I've always thought that they will end up together for as much as she loves Will, its far more complicated than with Peter.
I'm glad she stood up to Diane as she was always meek and let things happen in the past esp in S1.
Loved all the guest stars esp MJ Fox but I can't believe that EVERYTIME he appears to have lost, he somehow twists it so he wins @ the end. He needs to be properly duped asap!

I think I'm the only who felt Alicia was more greedy at this episode. In my opinion she made Canning give an offer, used that offer to make Diane give more...which makes Diane see "wow she changed". Plus when Diane said "clean out your desk by the end of the day", I thought that Diane wasn't scared of her threat even though she ends up giving a bonus. But really, if she wanted the house so bad, the kids doesn't even need private schools...they were fine with public schools in past episodes and I agree that she should just buy another apartment with the raise she got.

How on earth could anyone think Alicia would go back with Peter? My God, with all of his cheating, he had no respect for his wife, some things can not be forgiven. No way.. They do need something to happen with Alicia's personal life, isn't she kind of the star? i.e. The Good Wife? It's great that Diane is so confident with her love life, but don't we want more Alicia? Kalinda is hiding something, yes, I believe that's true and possibly with Will, but I sure hope not.. I love Carey, the guy is such a natural actor, while some are a bit over the edge. This last episode was a bit of a snoozer, really.. they need something to happen, hopefully Matthew Perry will pick up the pace a bit..

Sorry, I disagree , Alicia is not a doormat at the firm . Could you count on your fingers , how many housewifes after 13 years staying at home, raising children , being the housekeeper,, and found a good friend who offered this opportunity to return on the work market as a lawyer . Wil is a very good and loyal friend for her and he has always protected her in all circonstances .If Alicia is a good lawyer now , she owes it to Wil & Diane.
Peter is a mess.
March 19th, 2012 7:41 PM
This is not the truth . Wil did not lie to Alicia, Afther the episode of the closing arguments ,when they were sitting at the bar, she asked about Tammy , he told her , my girfriend , she is in london . he didn't lie to her. I do not understand the secret side of Wil.
Wil is not an angel an Peter also. Peter likes power and glory. do not forget Alicia has never get the message from Wil on her voicemail, when he declares his passionate love for her .the writers dropped out.
By the way I love Josh Charles and he is a wonderful and great actor.

To answer a few questions for the future of the show.
1. Alice and Will will not be back together.
2. Kalinda is hiding something and it has nothing to do with Peter (her husband will show shortly).
3. There won't be any tequlia shots going on and does Kalinda have any secrets with WILL ?
4. Yes there was a small raise like all 3yr associates get, the bonus was a way to hold her in there place no one there knows about the house she will buy.
5. And she didn't put one over on L.canning he put one over on her for future class action suit.
6. Her track record on cases is more lose than win, she is still the firms doormat and doesn't have the nerves to fight in fear of dismisle.

It was Diane Time , yesterday night .She was gorgeous, and amazing.
Will & Alicia were miserable and they felt painfully .
Soon , kalinda & Alicia will get a drink together .
I really miss my favorite team : Wil& Alicia : Writers , don't burn them.

I liked that Alicia stood her ground and asked for a raise. She is the one who is winning cases, and yes they are using her because of being married to Peter. I thought it was a raise and a bonus that she got.
As far as the house. I don't think she needs that big of a house either. I'm assuming she is over the "I want more children age", the ones that she has will be going off to college soon.
I think Kalinda is hiding something else. I'm not sure it has anything to do with Peter, but I guess they are setting up something for the finale. I am glad to see that they decided to re-new this show for another season.

I always feel bad for Alicia when she gets stepped all over but then she stands up and fights her way back. She a lion in sheeps clothing....Roar!!

I find I can't wait for the episodes each week...when it's not preempted or running late(like last night again! so annoying)I love everything about this show. All the characters are really starting to "flesh out". i like that Diane has a life outside of work and that she is paying attention to those needs. Alicia is fabulous and really starting to come into her own as a litigator and single woman. And I adore Will Gardner and whether or not he and Alicia end up together in the future I still like his character and want to see stories about his "trials and tribulations". Kalinda is also a favorite of mine as is Eli and his antics! I'm spellbound each week as a new episode is there for my viewing. Who I don't particularly like is Cary in the DA's office...he's a slimball and gives lawyers a bad name.

I want more Will in the show and less Peter.

First off I don't see Will back in Alicia Life again she has seen his secret side with Tammy and can't trust him. Second she didn't get a salary increase it was a bonus one time. Third she is going to buy the house and down the road there will be a reconcile wait and see. Four there will never be another Peter/Kalinda hook-up again so drop it. Five Alicia told Kalinda that they would have to be honest and everything must be on the table in order to work in a friendler envirement. Six Alicia didn't pull anything over on the firm about her offer, if I were her after Diane's remark about cleaning out her office should have been a light bulb going off that her that they only need her to keep Peter off them. Seven she doesn't need Will to play on the edge

The thing with Alicia is she is a "good" person. She can be hard in the courtroom but she isn't hard in life. She needs Will. She needs his ability to play on the edge. She still sees things in black and white and they never are. If she allows herself to go back and buy that house for the sake of her kids she will make a huge mistake. There is no real reason for her to want to go back there. There were good times but the reason she left the house and how she left the house sylhet should be foremost in her mind. Her kids are in high school. They are about to go off to school. Why buy such a big house that needs a lot of work?
Tammy could have stayed gone. Tammy knew that Will was not in love with her. She knew if he went with her he would have been settling and Alicia would always be in the relationship. I would love to see the writers let us see Will and Alicia actually talk to each other. They still give those long looks at each other so why not move the relationship forward or
March 19th, 2012 12:13 PM
I am on the fence about the house as I do not think one can always go back/however the kids seem to be taken but will this over extend Alicia even with her salary increase?
I get the presence of Will's ex as it opened Alicia's eyes to something that she too was quick to jump into something that she wanted with no thought to anything else that may have been going on. That is why for me Will has never been the great prize over Peter that many believe. Was Peter horrendous yes however Will is no angel. Frankly I prefer her with Peter for all of his sins. I hope this gets her and Kalinda back on track. Not excusing it but the Peter/Kalinda thing was not all that different IMO than the Will/Alicia thing turned out. I think it was an eye opener for Alicia.

Just a great episode all around! Loved it, couldn´t get enough of it! I liked the return of Tammy, gives the relationship between will and alicia get kind of tense, i like that, i still hope that they end up together soon! I also really enjoy Alicia´s trick to get her way on the firm, canning is rigth, is a "dog eat dog" world, u have to get smart! And i really agree with everybody else, cary needs more time on camara... also missed Peter...
The battles in the war room were really fun to watch also!
In the end, this episode reminded me a lot of the reason´s why i watch and love TGW!!!

The show has finally gotten good again. Very excited about more Alicia & Kalinda, plus the return of Lana next week!
March 19th, 2012 11:37 AM
@daysie - Sorry for my confusing statements. I thought Alicia was going to go to Peter for a reconciliation (so she could get the house) or at least to ask for money. And my first thought (with the look on Kalindas face) after Alicia told her about being honest, was that maybe Kalinda and Peter 'hooked' up again!!
I am not sure how I feel about Alicia / Peter or Kalinda / Peter ....
I am sure that I think a Kalinda / Cary relationship would be fun to watch.
March 19th, 2012 11:37 AM
I want more Peter in the show and less Will. Josh Charles got too much screen time this year.
March 19th, 2012 10:34 AM
Leesa: just curious, you have proposed a reconciliation between Peter and Alicia whilst simultaneously suggesting another hook up between Kalinda and Peter? Isn't that a bit odd?
