The <br />final scene is yet another triumph for the mad sound direction person, <br />and Will's hands on lap pose is beautiful<br /> <br /> Also loved annoyed <br />judge, super ninja lawyer employing the power of fluster, and especially hard man <br />pissed off Will Gardner. Nice to know his character isn't going soft. Not that I would ever say to someone 'hey dude, you're soft' like some kind of college insult, I just mean that somehow in all my feeling sorry for Will I had forgotten how much steel he really has.<br /><br />Diane is being extremely awkward but I guess she is<br /> only worried about the firm, and she is almost proved right in this episode. It is interesting to see new lawyer girl you don't like as much really taking Alicia's place in sympathy, plucky client saving and being in favour with Diane.<br /> <br /> Cary is so wonderful, he was my <br />favourite character this week, partially of course because he was the <br />only (temporary, natch) good guy and it looks like he might even get a <br />proper healthy relationship! I really like the 'pissed off lawyer team' as I have now decided to call them. And I am loving the brief reversal of Cary almost being embarrassed by their hardball tactics.<br /> <br /> And you were completely right about how dedicated Peter is to destroying <br />Will or Alicia or the firm, I will admit now that I thought maybe you were reading too much into his actions, I had no inkling of quite how single minded he was going to be, but you called it.Tom Gnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139769202527811820.post-77251424306048631702011-11-07T13:45:41.034-08:002011-11-07T13:45:41.034-08:00That would be great if THAT's what irks Diane,...That would be great if THAT's what irks Diane, that she's grooming Alicia to replace her (but Alicia can't be that much younger than Diane)?<br /><br />She's wayyyy more pissed at Alicia than Will though, which bothers me a little.theoncominghopenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139769202527811820.post-52667571913838783502011-11-07T13:44:46.420-08:002011-11-07T13:44:46.420-08:00I'm missing Kalinda loads as well.

She was by far one of my favorite characters from the first two seasons and I feel like they are struggling to find things for her to do. Her story with Alicia was integral...and they destroyed them...which is great...but now we're just left hanging.<br /> <br />And as much as I love Eli - I sorta enjoyed his absence this week. He's a great character to move plot points along and add a little comic relief - I loved him with regard to peter's campaign, but splitting things into his show and everyone else's show just feels a bit disjointed.Guestnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139769202527811820.post-25955657001073572332011-11-07T07:54:07.804-08:002011-11-07T07:54:07.804-08:00i kind of understand diane being passive aggressiv...i kind of understand diane being passive aggressive because she knows it might well be inappropriate to go all out and be like, "you're having an affair", BUT she clearly feels betrayed by will and frustrated by alicia's behaviour (because until now she thought that alicia might end up being a diane for the younger generation, perhaps). <br /><br />THE SEXUAL HARRASSMENT VIDEO WAS AMAZING.<br /><br />"swamped with paperwork" .gifs = this show is so good at unacknowledged humour.<br /><br />i didn't notice diane swallowing her gum.
