The opening sequence was absolutely hysterical as Alicia and Jason go at it on a Sunday afternoon in the bedroom. The episode just proves that even at the best of times, when the phone rings, answer it. For when you don't, those calling may very well show up at the door which is the case with Alicia's mother, brother and Eli Gold.

Alicia's mother thought she had been taken for a scheme and just when it appeared that she wasn't and the fault for losing all that money belonged to her, Jason brings forth the idea of the sucker list and mother could very well get her money back.

Diane does want an all female lawyer office and tells Alicia that she has watched her and that Cary, who she wants to buy out, is no Will Gardner.

Eli listening in via the bathroom vent to get information on the charges being leveled against the governor was hysterical as well.

One of my favorites

The first ten minutes were everything, the firsts scenes were so hot so romantically interesting , it was so nice to watch Alicia and Jason learn new things about them. When Veronica appeared it was so awkward for Alicia to see her mother talk with her sex partner lmao and the unexpected arrival of Eli and Elsbeth's ex, it was so funny to watch them interact.

I love how everything unfolds, Veronica, Owen and Jason working together to find out about the scammer and getting a happy ending as veronica recovers the money. I also like how Mike Tascioni's personality was managed to look like Elsbeth but with a lot of differences, he was weird in other way. The paranoia between Cary and David put simple tension to the show, and finally i was kinda sad for Cary because none thinks about him a as formidable lawyer, i think Cary just lacks of experience 'cause he's younger than most of the characters, but he seems so strong as lawyer.

This episode was so good. I went and made my husband watch it, who had barely been following along the whole series. I thought it was one of those episodes I thought one of the actors or whatever directed it. Good job good wife!

ridiculous now ...

This last season is rapidly deteriorating into the equivalent of the 'Bold and the Beautiful' style afternoon soap. All the characters are hamming it up and any pretence of playing it seriously vanished with season 6. It's all just soppy stuff and silly plots.

Cringey
GypsyHart22 September 2022
Extremely cringey episode particular with anything to do with Alicia and Jason. Absolutely none of the nuances of earlier romances.

Actually by this stage the character of Alicia is nothing like the original. It's not about growth but just simply a character losing appeal

The mistrust and wheeling and dealing at the firm is getting to be too soap opera like. Undercutting each other, backstabbing and changing of the guard constantly is getting tiresome

The episode certainly confirms that the show definitely needed to end. Only watched the last few episodes to see out the show.

Definitely not worthy of the earlier accolades.
