Episode Report Card Jacob Clifton: A+ | 114 USERS: A+ YOU GRADE IT As Cool As I Am
By Jacob Clifton | Season 5 | Episode 4 | Aired on 10.20.2013
Alicia enters, missing her in the shadows at first, to grab the last of the Chrissy Quinn files. Diane didn't know she'd be so angry, when she saw her; she didn't have time to prepare. She takes a page from St. Florrick's book, and keeps her mouth shut. Just looks at her. This woman she never thought to fear.
Alicia's skin is smoking, peeling, by the time she gears up to react. She smile weakly and ducks her head, makes a run for it. Scuttles.
Through the glass, everything is normal. Will's office is just where it always was. Everything but the sex, they said. It's where it was when they overcame, and overcame again; it's where it was when she sold him to Mandy Post for a handful of silver. It's never been such a long walk, as it has been this last week. Every single time.
It's going to break his heart, she thinks. It's going to end his world.
Good thing she loves him enough to be the one to do it.
NEXT WEEK
The Red Wedding begins with the highlights from Josh Charles's Emmy reel, and just... keeps going from there. I would highly recommend watching it live, but at the least take precautions to get every second, from the start to the finish. As much as this season is already making waves for showing the series at its artistic and dramatic peak, Sunday's episode is still something special. And if you don't start crying in the first five minutes, probably see a doctor, also.
