Sounds like a flashback episode or something?

This episode..a bit MEH. And here we go again with another firm! Nice to see "flashbacks". BTW W/R the preview of the season finale next week: I think we all know who is behind the door...unless they go super-natural and produce the ghost of Will!

Show of hands please. How many of you would drag a heavy door, with metal hinges still attached across your expensive hardwood floors (so you can scratch the hell out of them?) Come on!

I really liked this episode. The flashbacks had a sentimental tone. And I'm kind of excited about her new strategy as a lawyer, if there is one yet. MG might do her good too.
But @thekalindashow, my hands are up! |

I don't think this episode was that great or bad. The flashbacks were used to give us something that doesn't exist in the show anymore and I rather take it in present time.

I found this all so dull. The theatrics with the door seemed forced. The flashbacks were a hollow experience. And I sensed foreshadowing of more Grace next season... no Kalinda, and more Grace...
I have no objection to the new law firm idea, in theory, but a return to the apartment-law firm is going to be hard to make new and interesting. __________________

 And they were worried that killing Kalinda would feel repetitive Quote:
One episode with no Kalinda at all and it all feels empty and pointless already. After Will, now Kalinda, and Alicia might as well be floating in space.  I think they might well be running out of ideas to give us "what we want" without giving it to us, you know?  oh I got one *knock* *knock* Who's there? Boo. Boo who? Boo Who cares? Don't cry folks, it's just the pathetic end of a once great show __________________

There was a few things I really enjoyed about the episode. But really the disrespectful from the writers to us, just takes the joy out of this.

Overall, I enjoyed the episode, but the bar scene between Alicia and Kalinda was flat out insulting. At least Alicia seemed happy to think about Kalinda this time, but a little bit too late...
That said..the case itself was nice. But very little Diane and/or Kalinda didn't help the episode. I did enjoy the Cary/Alicia scene, in which they were talking about Kalinda. What was in the note Kalinda left at Alicia's home last week? I want to know. __________________

I liked the episode. Everything is coming in full circle to an end, i don't think i'm prepared, but i think, it's time. The A/K scenes besides being so fake, held something emotional about the characters, i liked them. Sad that ratings are going decimals now.

I didn't like most of this episode. Really hope that next and finale season be better.
Why a lawyer and wife of the governor uses a door as a desk? She even throw away a desk wh was already in Zach's room. That didn't make sense at all. |
