I have a question, are we allowed to discuss the details of what happens on tonights episode? Including spoilers and all of that? I just want to check on that before I start talking about something that I am not supposed too

[la bestia negra]

After it has aired, you can talk about everything that happened in the episode

Hey all!

I probably should have done this 5 hours ago when the ep ended but was on the phone.

Like this post, while the show was good tonight, it was kind of all over the map. Maybe it was just me (I was a bit distracted by real-life drama) or the fact that I wasn't able to watch last week's ep before tonight's, though. *Shrugs*

Since this is the MC forum, I will start off by saying that I was extremely disappointed in the gym scenes. Don't get me wrong--the Cary/Kalinda dynamic was great but I think he could have won her over if he'd just have removed his shirt. And I think that all of us GG fans can attest to the fact that there is NOTHING wrong with "Cary's" muscle tone. LOL

In all seriousness, those were good scenes, although the stuff about Cary's ex-gf and asking Kalinda about her love life in that setting was a little odd. I'm not sure how it was supposed to come off but it almost came off as Cary being kind of socially awkward/borderline harassment (although Kalinda was clearly enjoying it, IMO--her body language was definitely belying her words ).

I'm not sure what the purpose of Jackie's stroke was. I'm thinking they'll build on this (I'm so not caught up on spoilers, etc.) but it was pretty random. Almost thrown in there as yet another thing that Alicia did NOT need/a way to get the nanny fired (she was a little bit strange (at first I thought she might be a plant) but I think she pretty much nailed it with her parting words).

Loved Kalinda playing double agent. Childs is soooo smarmy.

As far as the kids were concerned, I really think they need to come clean with their mom. All this is going to come out eventually and Alicia's going to be super ticked that they didn't come to her. And there's something I really don't like about Becca.

The main case itself was pretty interesting but wasn't the focus of anything. I did like how they tied the mom's struggle in with Alicia's--you could tell she identified with her.

I can't really think of anything else right now. Although I have to say I'm starting to like Diane more than Will--he comes off too snobby sometimes.

Hope everyone enjoys the ep!

no recap this time, i have huge problems with my hand, replying later too, i just have one thing to say

CK in the gym

[Eternal Flame]

Zach doing some secret chatting, and the sibling fighting begins about the computer

Nanny searching, for the hours that grams can't.. She looks nice, and then the bickering is heard in the living room.
LOL Alicia is ashamed, grandma goes to take care of it

Fighting doesn't stop and alicia goes in while Alicia gets a call from Will.. so funny how it goes quiet when she steps into the room
*pout* Why don't you just say you didn't have time Alicia, Cary would have gotten the case then!

'Thank God I thought they were going to send out Cary'
That's not nice LOL

they're in the hospital and someone died.
and then we see the dead guy.. First time we see that on the show..

they found some pills.. apparently that lead to the boy's death??
Kalinda really knows what's she's doing, in telling other people what they should do

Murphy, that's the 90210 guy

Alicia and the doctor.. the doctor seems nice
and there's the missing shoe

aww zach doing his hair.. Zach has got a little date..
I don't trust that girl, I really don't. and they go off together

AAAH SCREAMING
Grandma is on the floor

Peter and Alicia.. Alicia telling Peter his mom had a stroke.. and that zach is seeing a 16 year old girl
Peter is a bit shocked I think by all that's happening..
and sneaking out for a concert.. Zach is truly rebelling
and Peter has a sister.. I love finding out about family. Now I want to meet said sister
very smart way to show Peter that Childs tapped their phones

I see Cary, finally, at least 1 scene he's in.. LOL

wow they charge the guy with murder? That's a little much not?

wow research on the dead guy.. and stomach content? Kalinda seems interested
Kalinda knows how to work her charms.. Lee likes her I want Lee more often if he gives her stuff this easily

alicia doesn't have much luck with the mother, door slammed in the face LOL
then it opens again, didn't expect that and they talk

Ooh Alicia at the office and who's behind her? CARY&KALINDA
talking to the nanny and the friend Becca is there again. very smart to keep them in the living room

Cary and Alicia disagree, LOL
Alicia talking about the shoe and Cary doesn't find it important 'cause it would put the hospital in a bad light. Kind of understand both of them
didn't get the last piece of the conversation.. that ended with 'i read an article' can't get what cary said before that


ooh Kalinda working out. we see all kinds of shades of her.. In general already lots of Kalinda here
she sees a men sign and making a call. I have a good hunch right now

and my hunch is correct!! CARY!!! at the gym!! Please make him work out!

LOL 'Something you can't do yourself?'
'Poor little me, I need a man' LOL
For some reason I find it a hot conversation
Seriously what are the plans for the writers with these two 'cause lately they keep making them have scenes

ooh he had a girlfriend who wanted to get married?? and he said no.. Gosh talk about irony, if you ever watched Gilmore Girls this is like the total opposite of what happened there LOL

'Cary you know i'm listening to a word you're saying right?' LOL
nonetheless, Cary feels like he can speak his heart out to her in some way
I want just one friendly scene together, can I just get that?

oooh they're touching!!
Cary is really interested 'Do you have a boyfriend?' 'No'

haha Cary is really getting to her, the look when he walks away

cary on investigation and he gets pills for free
kind of weird that a guy just hands that out to everyone.. and cary wants drugs, well for the investigation, the guy looks a bit weird at him LOL

can I say we get so much of him when there was no sight of him in the promos?
speaking of promos, I want Kalinda/Peter/Glenn scenes

aaah and I get what I want.. I should have typed that earlier
well not kalinda yet
but Peter is not so sure about getting a hand on the tapes apparently.. apparently he didn't say all good things on his homephone

alicia and the accused doctor. Why is alicia walking out the room all of a sudden?
and who will she choose? Will or Diane?
It's Diane but Will is still there when the story is told
poor doctor, he has no defence anymore.. that's the end of the case?

kalinda and glenn.. interesting..
'Sorry to hear about your divorce' 'Thank you' 'I was being sarcastic'

gosh what happened with Kalinda in the past and with Peter?? I wanna know!
how is she tied to his scandal?

wow the doctor wants to pay for his own defense but still be done by Alicia?

ooh cary and kalinda are reassigned.. so Alicia is on her own

jackie is awake! at least nothing is wrong with her speech, that's often the case with strokes.
fun scene between alicia and jackie
the best one so far I think
and jackie doesn't like Molly.. she's a push it
and the medication triggered something with Alicia, wonder where she's heading at

and back at home.. zach with the girl again and apparently no longer in the living room
and the door closes
and they kiss
'What do you want me to do to you?' Gosh that girl is annoying
ugh the girl is repeating peter's sextape..

grace doesn't have a good feeling I guess when she walks past the room
molly is a little know it all, I think Jackie got it right..
*pout* I want to know how far zach is going, or letting this girl go

so the bottle is 'not barcoded' that should help Alicia

and she's at the state attorney's office I persume?? 'Go ahead make the call. I'll wait' I love how Alicia said that

peter and kalinda. Kalinda spills the fact that Childs wants her to work for him. Peter tells her to do it and for us
'that should be a familiair feeling for you' (so she did something similiair to this in the past, working for both?)

oooh because of Alicia they lost a client, the pharmacy, unexpected twist.

Alicia didn't research things fully... not to see who represented the pharmacy and that they could be put under investigation and the fact that they didn't have 80 mgs in stock
things are not looking good for Alicia's case

Kalinda and milk.. she had that last week too.. Guess we know she's a milk drinker now

Cary steps in and looks at Kalinda who says 'Great' in a sarcastic tone.. love their exchanges

aah cary has info on the ambulance, Cary is all for clients but when they're not anymore he likes to 'attack' them too
and the guy wants to sell cary some oxycodon
You'd better thank Cary in the end Alicia

seriously Molly is only interested in the kids because of their past and what it does for them in a psychologically level

ooh molly found the pics.. apparently they're still on the computer
I hope the kids tell Alicia now

ah cary on investigation now and the police drops in.. the boy says he doesn't sell to kids.. could the mom have bought it? since they're going to that place now
so it comes down to the fact that the boy pretty much killed himself?

alicia back at home with the kids
LOL hypersexualized
I wish the kids told her

Maybe Molly will now?
'its because what I saw on the computer'
Really Alicia needs to check that computer like NOW

so who is Kalinda working for now? Is it for the benefits of Peter or Glenn?

awwww peter is visiting his mom.. So sweet!

[la bestia negra]

gosh so long that will take ages to reply to it. give me a few minutes
