By Jacob Clifton | Season 4 | Episode 11 | Aired on 01.06.2013
Tobin: "I'm pretty sure as a white man that I am not a pawn between ladies. That's not how America works."
Wendy Scott-Carr: "Whatever, I'm not going to argue it. Just keep your head down, maggot. Oh, and Tobin? We ran a clean campaign, right?"
Tobin: "I mean, basically..."
(His nose starts bleeding just from her being angry on the other end of the line.)
Wendy Scott-Carr: "I said, We ran a clean campaign. Right?"
(Blood drips onto his necktie, he doesn't even notice; he can't concentrate, the lights have become very bright in this diner.)
Tobin: "Yes, Wendy Scott-Carr. Yes. Bless you, and bless the bright knives of your mercy."
KALINDA & CLOTHES (& INCIDENTALS)
Alicia: "Kalinda. And clothes."
Kalinda: "...And incidentals? Wine and tampons and sundries? And wine?"
Later on, they are sprawled on the beds, killing a bottle of red wine. Is there anything better than imagining that, chilling in Alicia Florrick's hotel room with some wine? You got your socks on, legs curled up under you, maybe hugging a pillow. Just drinkin' and chattin'. After Cary and now Kalinda, I don't know who else gets to be in this club. I just know I am lime-green jello about it. Or oh my God what if Jord... Nope, no. Reel it in. Don't fly so high.
Alicia: "So very quiet."
Kalinda: "You've had two days of this?"
Alicia: "Yeah, and two nights. Honestly I kind of like it."
Kalinda: "Really? I'd kill someone."
Alicia: "...Nope, not gonna ask. But I will reward you with a story."
"You know what I miss about my old life? Before the glamour of the law? The quiet. At home, in the afternoons, I would drink every day at three, a glass of red wine. Waiting for the kids to come home. I miss the silence in the house at three, just ... nothing going on."
I mean, it's Alicia so when she says one glass only you know she means it. And I guess that was a kind of reward for getting through a silent day. I can't tell if it's sad or wonderful. If instead of waiting for people to come home, if instead of red wine it were, I don't know, a bout of mindful yoga or yard tai chi or something, would you question it? Either way it's meditation.
It's the quiet, it's something you'd miss. A peaceful place of calm, in the middle of the storm. It's what she used to be:
