See, Mr. Dipple, a.k.a.
So essentially, shed be playing devils advocate.
But as Irving puts it, Who knows the advocates case better than the devil?
And whoever has the most pounds gets first choice of which days to work.
Not surprisingly, Alicia cares less about games and more about justice.
Welcome to bond court, where they care more about being speedy than they do about being fair.
(Isnt marriage fun?)
(Lets just say theyre not going to throw her a party anytime soon.)
NEXT: Wanna partner?
Also not throwing any parties anytime soon is Eli, who spends the hour manipulating everyone he can.
Of course, Eli then also gets Grace involved.
Translation: He gives Ruth a handful of Florrick women to handle.
(Well, Florrick women and Veronica.)
In the middle of her trial, Diane realizes that this case is a Trojan horse for Dipple.
You just knew a man that hot had to have a record, didnt you?
In exchange for not filing a racial profiling suit, she asks for the security footage of Maya.
The good news is that the footage proves Mayas innocence.
So in the end, Maya takes the plea to cover for her mother.
(So shes Izzie Stevens.
This is my lastGreysreference, I promise.)
In other words, we just got the latest version of Wanna partner?
