Episode Report Card Jacob Clifton: A+ | 4 USERS: A YOU GRADE IT The Peter Principle
By Jacob Clifton | Season 4 | Episode 15 | Aired on 03.03.2013
It's what got us here -- but it's also what got us to those five fourth-year promotions that are strangling the firm the now. It's what got us here, but it's also what keeps Alicia suspended in this married/unmarried Schrödinger's Box with Peter: If you are a good guy and are called upon to be the bad guy in order to be the good guy, you have to rise to the challenge or everybody loses. It's the management angle on the Will stuff last week: Just because I broke my own heart to get rid of you doesn't mean I was uninjured, I just have less ego on the table than everybody else. I was just willing to let you hate me for a minute, in order to save us both.
BISHOP TEAM
Lady: "So did St. Alicia sign off on the brief?"
Cary: "She's with Diane. Probably talking about other ways to burn us."
Team: "That's why we like you, you're still one of us."
Cary: "I'll work with whatever I have."
Will: "Hey guys, everything going okay?"
Cary: "We're not planning any sedition or anything."
Will: "Sure. Listen, you know she cut her own hours rather than cross you guys, right?"
Cary: "No, I did not know that. And hilariously enough, neither of us know she's right at this very moment getting barred from doing that anyway."
Will: "Well, keep up the good work. Assholes."
DEBATE
Maddie Hayward: "Alicia! You're on the wrong side of the studio."
Alicia: "Trust me, I wouldn't be standing here."
Maddie Hayward: "You and I both know fuckin' Jordan made you come stand over here to rattle me."
Alicia: "Oh my God, your paranoia is gross. Calm the hell down. As much as I'm loathe to say or think it, this is exactly what they're talking about when they say women can't be friends."
Maddie Hayward: "As much as I hate to agree, I sure did go down the checklist of lady-alienation with you, didn't I? Confirming any weird stereotypes you may have had previously, of women in power."
(WAIT HOW IS THE MODERATOR FOR THIS ALSO PETRA?)
Peter: "...I mean, there's no question that immigration is a complex issue, but we also live in Illinois, so."
Petra: "Thank you, Mr. States Attorney. Or I mean, according to the rules, I call Mr. Florrick..."
Peter: "That's all right, Petra..."
Petra: "Yeah, and you can go ahead and call me Petra. Sure."
