Review Round Table Quotes

Recap

Ethan Carver, who works for R.D., tells Diane that instead of playing Devil’s advocate on a physician’s assisted euthanasia case, that Reese Dipple wants her to take over the case. Diane is upset because she is pro euthanasia. Diane takes the case, because she doesn’t want to lose R.D. as a client and because Louis Canning, the opposing council’s tactics, make her angry.

During the case she learns that R.D.’s team will be using this case to increase malpractice insurance as a way to stop doctor’s from performing euthanasia. She fights the case by saying that the doctor who provided her the drugs didn’t inform Alexa about a promising new treatment and therefore she didn’t have all the information to make an informed choice. Unfortunately, Canning shows an online blog that Alexa commented on concerning the trail at Duke University, therefore she did know about it but chose euthanasia anyway.  

In Bond court, Alicia takes on a client, Mia who says she’s innocent in a shop lifting case. The judge is angry that Alicia doesn’t get Mia to plead guilty. Mia’s mother says that she bought the sweater and her daughter was just trying to return it. She also claims that the store tries to keep black people out. 

Alicia’s investigator, Jason Krause checks out the store and finds they are targeting black customers. When Jason testifies, the prosecutor brings up that he was disbarred as an attorney for assaulting a judge and accused of tampering with evidence and the judge dismisses his testimony. 

Alicia threatens the store with a class action suit if they don’t turn over their security video. Unfortunately the video show that Mia’s mother actually stole the sweater. Mia decides to plead guilty instead of having her own mother charged. 

Later, Luca and Alicia lament the state of bond court. Luca tells her that she cares too much and needs to find cases that pay better. Alicia asks her if she wants to work together.

Eli sends both Jackie and Grace to Peter’s office to try to rattle Ruth. When things get heated, Peter tells Ruth to fix it and she astutely handles both Jackie and Grace by making them feel a part of Peter’s campaign. Later, she goes to Eli to tell him she knows what he’s trying to do and it won’t work.
