Episode Report Card Jacob Clifton: A+ | 2 USERS: A+ YOU GRADE IT Feeding The Rat

By Jacob Clifton | Season 3 | Episode 4 | Aired on 10.16.2011

Kalinda rips the shit out of the lotto person's bedroom -- he's a young feller that just moved back in with his mom, it's this economy -- and what do you know, it's the surly Gen X fishmonger that thinks we owe him the world. And guess what is in his underwear drawer? That's right. Secret underwear money.

Round about this time, that Old Lady starts yelling her ass off, all, "OH HI DEAR DID YOU HAVE A NICE DAY" and all of this mess, as if to specifically warn Kalinda about how the dangerous fishmonger is inside the house, and just as the old woman is explaining about the lottery winnings and how they will never go hungry again and finally things are looking up, you see Kalinda running to her car, having exited the house in some nonstandard fashion. So I guess in the end that old lady will just die alone and poor, which is what she was before Kalinda showed up. But at least she got to meet Kalinda.

Eli: "I feel like you're cheating on me."
Kalinda: "Only for money."
Eli: "We are so sassy. Hey, by the way, who has the power in this law firm?"
Kalinda: "Diane in criminal, Will in civil."
Eli: "How about the money?"
Kalinda: "Diane, but only by default, because Will hates dealing with it. Once bitten twice shy, I guess, when it comes to embezzlement."
Eli: "Does he mean it when he says no?"
Kalinda: "Often."
Eli: "Even to me?"
Kalinda: "Probably."
Eli: "Aw, nuts."

Eli: "Okay, what about Julius?"
Kalinda: "He's not on this show much, so I don't know that he matters."
Eli: "Shouldn't the head of litigation not hate me? Why does he hate me?"
Kalinda, verbatim: "You're the new and shiny thing."
Eli: "Okay, but does it matter that he doesn't like me?"
Kalinda, hilariously: "...No."
Eli: "Anybody else with power?"
Kalinda: "David Lee, Family Law. Bitchy as hell. Pretty great, most of the time."

Eli: "And Alicia, where does she stand in all of this?"
Kalinda-Bot: Powering down.
Eli: "Alicia Florrick. Her place in this structure."
Kalinda: "She's a third-year associate. But yeah, she matters."
Eli: "Because of her husband?"
Kalinda: "Among, like, thousands of reasons. She can persuade people."
Eli: "You mean like Will?"
Kalinda: "See, you don't actually need me for this. What are you even doing."
