[to Peter] You are a good man. You want to blame yourself. But you apologized. You apologized again, and again. Anybody who wants another apology from you only wants you to be weak. So stop this. Stop this now. My son will not be made weak.

The fact is, you know something about Stern no one else knows.
I can't use it, Kalinda.
You can't not use it.
It violates attorney-client privilege.
Only if you tell someone. So don't tell someone.
It's over.
What is?
Us. Me caring. Me actually thinking that you're changing.
I am changing.
No, you're not. You want to think you are so you can go back to what you did before.
Then, help me. Help me. If you're right, help me.
No.
I have respected the way you've stood by your husband. It's a lesson in forbearance.
Well, it's a lesson in something.
This isn't about Mrs. Sanborn, Jonas. This is about us.
Of course it's about us. I'm going to destroy your firm. And Mrs. Sanborn understands that, don't you dear?
I do.
Everybody has friends; everybody has enemies. I did things for Kozko as a friend.
That were illegal?
No, but... the line gets fuzzy.
[she shows him a bracelet] Who paid for this?
I did.
Then why isn't the receipt in your name? I went to the store, Peter.
I wanted to get you something nice... I didn't have the money. Kozko lent me the money.
And that was illegal.
That was... fuzzy.
Who's Will?
Will Gardner-- my boss.
I heard you talking to him on the phone. A week ago. You were whispering. At night.
He's my boss... and we used to know each other in college. And we thought that we were attracted to each other, but it's over.
What's over?
Thinking that we were attracted to each other.
But he's still your boss?
Yes.
So what happened?
Actually, that's all I intend to share right now. Your father and I are agreeing to make this work and I have agreed to trust you again, so good night.
Everything is all right.
You sure? Because... I'm sorry.
Alicia, you don't have any reason to be sorry. I was pushing a situation that was wrong to push.
You weren't.
I was.
Don't worry. We're good. We're going to be good.
[to Alicia] That's the problem with good deeds... they multiply.
You're such a pushover.
I am not. I'm responsible. [Kalinda gives her a look] No, I mean, I'm responsible for the Feds questioning him.
You're not responsible for everything bad in the world, Alicia.
[she pauses] Where would they put her, the mom?
Broadview, McHenry detention, General population at Cook County. They make it a shell game.
But you could find her?
So you're the pushover, I'm the one who actually does the work?
You have until Friday.
I have...? No. I have two weeks.
Diane and Will are deciding between you and Cary on Friday.
Where did you hear that?
Cary was going door to door with equity partners, lining up support. He heard it from your assistant. My guess is he's phoning in on accounts, loading up on receivables. How are you with Will?
I don't know.
What happened?
I don't know.
You do know. You just don't want to say. Did you sleep with him?
No.
So that's the problem: you didn't sleep with him?
No. We talked. We had... a moment.
And you shut it down?
He did, too.
Okay. You have three problems. Cary's a good finisher. He got a head start. And Will is gonna work overtime to appear objective. Unfairly objective.
I'm... I'm just so tired of this.
I know, but that's what people like Cary count on.
I heard you were deciding on Friday.
That really wasn't supposed to be circulated.
I know. I just... I'm really proud of the work I've done here.
As you should be.
And I wanted to make sure that you saw that.
Look, Alicia, I don't know what you're hearing, but that's all we'll be looking at.
Okay, good.
You have my word. When we decide, nothing else will enter the picture other than your work.
[Alicia and Cary have just been informed they have been called up by Diane and Will]
It's weird, huh?
It's like a date with the executioner.
Nice working with you.
You too. You're a good lawyer.
I hear it's always the first one called in, they're the ones who get fired.
I really didn't need to know that.
Sorry.
I don't know what to do. I've worked hard. You say that's not enough, so I'll work harder. You tell me Cary can work harder still. So what do you want? Tell me what you want, because I can't lose this job.
You're not Cary. You can never be Cary. But you don't have to be.
I don't understand.
Your name, your connections... You've been reluctant to... use them.
You want me to use my connections?
I want you to want the job.
