Will: "Since I can't take you home yet, can I just breathalyzer you with my iPhone first?"
Jeffrey: "Wait, I'm going to miss my midterm?"
Will: "Given how happy Geneva Pine looks, I'm pretty sure you're going to the electric chair. Just breathe in my phone please."

COURT

Will: "My phone says he was only 0.00001. That's freshman drunk."
Judge: "ASA Pine, did you pull this kid over for being not drunk?"
Geneva: "My bad! Never mind."
Everybody: "Wait for it..."
Geneva: "...But also he's now under arrest for MURDER!"

Dani Littlejohn was found outside her dorm on the Chicago Polytech campus last August, with blunt trauma to her skull and Special K up in her dead body. Skin samples from under her fingernails were not identifiable until Jeffrey's father's arrest two months ago, when it got a database hit for familial DNA in the Littlejohn murder. Research (spotty, as we'll see) turned up Jeffrey, who's male and also goes to her school.

Will: "That stinks! This is a goddamn phone!"
Judge: "Yeah, but oh well. The part where he killed a girl is kind of compelling, don't you think?"

They have a fight about whether or not it was legal to collect the particular DNA they stole from him, but Will's so off his game suddenly that you don't really listen to the precedents and Supreme Court rulings and whatever. Unlike in almost every other episode of this show, it bleeps past your head like the medical talk in a doctor show. The Judge bangs his gavel, and the kid goes into lockup for up to 48 hours.

L/G

David Lee: "What the fuck are you doing in my law firm?"
Alicia: "Hi! What the fuck are you doing in my office? The body wasn't even cold."
David Lee: "If I let that stop me, I'd never get laid."
Diane: "Mrs. Florrick, hello. Welcome to our law firm that is thriving without you."
Alicia: "Ms. Lockhart, hello. Welcome to, uh... Man, I wish I'd brought cookies."

Although she certainly did enjoy the terrified moment when the girl in reception recognized her and, in her haste to announce the arrival, nearly clothes-lined herself trying to get away from the phone without taking off her headset. It's not fun for that girl, who survived just fine, but plenty fun for Alicia, who basically was that girl not long ago. Coming back having been partner, making the walls shake with every step...
