The Good Wife- run, Alicia, run! [edited by MNHQ to say NO SPOILERS PLEASE]

[BOFster]

Anyone watching?

I think Johnny will be a quick fling!

Totally agree that its on camera somewhere! I wonder whether it'll be peter using it against her to keep her 'in line' after that very public demonstration of what she thinks of him. It certainly frightened Eli! How long can they go on with the happily married pretence? Although she did do a great job in that interview a few weeks back.

I just love this show. The acting is so good, the characters are really well developed and there's usually variety of story. I also like the bringing in of different interesting characters back and forth too - like the fab Elspeth!

I didn't see any follow up after kalinda's 'girlfriend' was told that the wire had been leaked. Or was that just to let us know that Kalinda was 'choosing' Cary?

Phew, that's Ok now. poor Cary wouldn't ave lasted 10 mins in jail with his little boy looks and his lawyer attitude. Whatever mess Kalinda has got herself into, I am sure she will find some way it of it. This will,probably involve sex, leather and guns, as usual.

Also love this show!!! Love Cary but think he has lost too much weight and his suits and shirts look too big for him, part of the role maybe. Bored of Kalinda saving the day and her 'style'. Love Eli too. Google Alan Cumming The Saturday Night Show for a great interview he did on Irish tv maybe last year or so.

The scene where the prison consultant shouted through the door less talking more sex was so funny and the way Cary and kalinda giggled was so sweet.

The detective on the laptop
Was GILBERT BLYTHE from Anne of Green Gables
All growed up and reduced to bit parts {saddest face ever}

No way! Would love to see what he looks like now. And I have deleted the episode from my TV!

He was fab as Gilbert.

Bit parts by Skype which is even worse.

I love, love The Good Wife. I agree that Eli is great and Alicia's wig is amazing! Kalinda is really annoying so will be interested to see how the shit she's now in pans out...wouldn't be too sad if she got killed off.

Bishop is just beautiful isn't he?

How do the press not get hold of the fact that Alicia and Peter don't live together or aren't together at all anymore? The Sun would be on that like a flash!

I love Elspeth popping up and Michael J Fox. Will be good to return to some usual lawyer-y business soon though. We haven't seen Clark (think that's his name the one who came to audit them or whatever it was and then joined them). Also LOVE Diane and her necklaces.

You probably get that I just love it!!

What's that about Gilbert Blythe - he's who in TGW?? I loved Anne of Green Gables

Great episode I thought. Kalinda is surely screwed whatever happens. Thought the debate scenes were great too. Roll on next Thursday!

Thanks Travelled! Good to see her jewellery being appreciated! I'm more into long pendant necklaces at the moment but might be tempted into something chunky soon :)

I love the Good Wife but there's something I've missed.
Alicia and her husband were kinda getting back together but then it seems to have gone tits up. What happened?

Just watched. That kiss was soooo hot! You could just feel her elation at Cary's release then hot young campaign manager rocks up and vrooom. I may have to watch again later

Kalinda is DOOMED doomed, I tell Ye.

I really panicked Cary was going to escape. So how come he's got $253k in the bank and not used it to pay anything toward his bail or for the prison consultant?! Anyone else find that odd?!

I'd quite like a dream with Jonny in it tonight. Finn has suddenly paled.

I think the Johnny kiss is expedient for plot purposes, but I don't think it wiil develop. 1) as others have said, I think it will have been caught on cctv and will surface during the campaign and 2) Johnny now has insight that the united front/forgiving wife schtick is not genuine - it will have backed up the mauling Alicia gave Peter in the debates. In fact, i loved that scene. Watch out Peter!

I maintain that Alicia and Finn have a future together. Can anyone remember whether Finn is separated from his wife or whether she died? I remember there's sad backstory which makes him seem noble, but I can't remember what.

I think the sad back story is something to do with his sister dying in a drugs related thing?
I think that Will dying clarified things for Alicia that she had wasted her time with peter when she really loved will and should have just gone for it. Peter isn't Will. I think the current venom comes largely from the discovery of him sleeping with Ramona (?) although I'm pretty sure that there's something else that I can't remember. Anyone else remember?

That he had also boffed Kalinda during their marriage when she worked for him as States Attorney, not just random prostitutes.

My theory....

.... Kalinda goes to prison. I bet it comes out that she faked the email. The detective produces his outlook calandar, showing that he couldn't have read the email, as he was on holiday, visiting sick aunt gertude in Outer Mongolia, where the wifi doesn't work. Kalinda has to fess up.

I think the bishop thing is a red herring. I've never understood why Kalinda, who is supposed to be oh so street smart, canny and resourceful managed to get into the situation she is with Bishop. Given her line of work, she more than anyone else would have known how dangerous he is and would have steered clear.

My first thought is that she would have done a runner - it fits in with her character (secret past, mysterious, no reason to hang around). This wouldn't make good TV, which is why I thin prison. They couldn't kill her off, as they did this with Will and it's too soon after her death.

Just had a thought - if Alicia wins the states attourney role, she'll be in charge of putting Kalinda away. What a brilliant storyline that would be . I think I should write for the show, I'm on a roll.

Dustbunny- I think that (quite unbelievably) Alicia seemed to get past that didn't she? Iirc they were at it on the campaign bus etc after that revelation about Kalinda? Although I'm seriously sleep deprived so I might have that totally wrong!

Of course, howabout - I'd forgotten the campaign bus shagging. Hmm. Curious. Perhaps it is the Connie Nielsen character that's ruffled Alicia - I still think there's more to come there.

I don't think the storyline with Peter and the solicitor will develop. I think it's one of those small plots they use to make you think it will go somewhere (eg that Irish lawyer, Kalinda and her husband, Kalinda and that other investigator).

I really want them to bring back David lee and Louis canning - I really enjoyed their scheming together.

Does anyone know what happened to robin?

Robin is still around, working for the new firm, but not in the foreground.

Gosh I am loving this thread! A few gaps in the stories which I didn't understand or missed have been filled - thanks guys!

I am finding it very hard to not share spoilers, I'm watching in Australia and we are a few episodes ahead. I will keep quiet though...
