The Good Wife

He's coming in today. That's what I heard.

Lockhart, gardner.

One second.

Margie said he's coming in for a divorce settlement.

I thought he was dead. Agos & florrick.

I'm sorry, she's on the other line.

Okay.

What's chrissy doing?

Oh, you don't know, do you?

When they put in the sign, they left a hole in the wall.

If you stand just right, you can hear everything

Going on in the conference room.

No!

Hey, information is power.

Harper & greene has this wonderful little corner office

Just right for me.

Come on, david, we go back a long ways.

Yes, and you always had

Such admiration for family law.

Face it,

I do my thing, you do yours.

Only difference is, mine makes money.

It's a bad economy, david, that's all.

We're righting the ship.

Then right it.

I have no love

For this place, but I don't want to jump

To harper & greene unless I have to.

I don't like boxes.

We're bringing in a third partner.

Yes, I've heard about this messiah partner

For two months now. Can't wait.

You could help us.

Collect on overdue accounts.

Yes, that's our problem.

I start making collection calls to my divorcees,

They'd bolt to another firm before I can hang up.

Give us till the end of the week?

That's what I like to hear.

We'll cull the herd.

Lou...

Jocelyn...

Derek.

And lenny.

Accounts lenny? Or litigation?

Litigation.

That's two of yours

And two of mine.

And the junior associates.

We have to decide now.

Cary or alicia?

Friday. We'll decide Friday.

Good.

And let's keep it to ourselves, okay?

I don't want to deal with

A lot of last-minute maneuvering on this.

Alicia. Oh.

I'm sorry.

Mr. Gold in my office.

Again.

Sorry, alicia. I was upstairs.

And david lee needs to see you in ten minutes.

Hey, really good work on my brief.

Thanks. You want to be a paralegal, right?

Yeah, someday.

All right, well, any help you need.

Cary, do you have a minute?

Sure. What's up?

I just heard something upstairs.

There's a good chance that the state's attorney

Won't prosecute peter.

Because of kozko's suicide?

Actually, yes.

And if that does happen,

You and I will have to get on the same page quickly.

What page is that?

The campaign.

I won't do interviews, and I won't do photos.

I know, and I respect that. My children won't, either.

If I could be so bold...

No, you can't.

Right. Got it.

Anyway, that's not why I'm here.

Peter's got it into his head

That he won't run unless you approve.

I know, I tried to convince him otherwise.

I told him that wives just get in the way, but...

He's adamant.

Mr. Gold, peter is an adult.

He doesn't need a mother.

We talking about you or me?

I have to get back to work.

Think about it, mrs. Florrick.

Glenn childs is a disastrous state's attorney.

But you know that better than I do.

More kettle corn.

Thank you. This one is bubble gum flavored.

Oh, and cotton candy.

Look- separated. I see that.

Another divorce case?

With a prenup.

Her expectations are too high.

We have to get her down to $300,000.

Alicia, can I get a minute with you?

Regarding?

That's all right. Later.

See? I told you.

Here she is.

Mrs. Caroline wilder, meet alicia florrick.

Mrs. Florrick.

It's really nic to meet you.

I think I'll be turning to you

For advice on how to bounce back.

But first things first- alicia and I

Were just discussing our "ask."

She worries our eyes

Might be a little bigger than our stomachs.

Alicia.

The prenup makes it very difficult, caroline.

I was young and in love,

And all of his hit records

Happened before we were married.

Oh. Caroline wilder of max wilder?

Oh, soon to be ex-max wilder.

I'm so sorry; I didn't know. It's okay.

I'm being traded in for a younger model.

It happens.

I could go to couples therapy,

I could get a face-lift,

But I can't be 28 years old again.

You know the best revenge, caroline?

I would love to know.

Make him see how happy you are.

Let us be angry for you.

Well, here comes the parade.

I thought it was just gonna be us, max.

Oh, shaina wanted to come.

It's my right.

great.

Love it.

Okay, so, here's where we stand.

Chocolate raisins, anyone?

No, thank you. Max: I will.

We've reviewed your counter-

Thank you for that, by the way-

And we've decided

We're sticking with our original offer.

Ah. Well,

That's unacceptable. Yeah, we don't think it is.

Max, after everything we've been through,

Do you really believe that $140, 000 a year is fair?

Well, I never thought of you

As being greedy, caroline. Says the man

With the $40 million estate.

Look, we're not here to argue or bandy numbers about.

We've, uh, got a court date tomorrow.

Max has been more than generous with his offer.

We advise you to take it.

Could you give us a minute?

Max wilder is on probation for a 2007 possession charge,

But he got judicial permission

To leave the country this weekend.

This weekend? Why?

Flight reservations to bora-bora.

Rental of a room to accommodate 80.

They're getting married.

If he makes tomorrow's court date.

How do you get this stuff?

Friends.

Just give me an army of women.

Sorry for that.

We have your offer-

Thank you-

And we'll just need a few days to mull it. Actually,

No, we have a court date tomorrow.

Yes, well, why don't we just push that off.

I- I don't think you dederstand.

This offer came with a clock.

We need an answer now, or we walk.

Then walk.

Let them go, david.

Oh, alicia,

Don't take out your aggressions on this.

It's insulting- $140,000 a year.

David, look,

If we get an agreement now,

We can go up to $180,000, but that exhausts our cushion.

Nope, sorry.

Let's take the weekend.

A- alicia, wait.

Help me out with this.

I want this to work.

$300,000.

Nicely played. Thank you.

How you doing, caroline?

I'm fine...

Soon as I go home and have a big bag of mint milanos.

ah, I thought I was completely over him.

Hey, john, if you could put in a good word for me

With will and diane.
