Recap / The Good Wife S 2 E 21 In Sickness

Go To

Alicia has learned of Peter's affair with Kalinda, and so she packs his things and moves them to the new house she rented for him. A woman in need of a liver sues the hospital for telling her they had a liver for her then reneging on it. Ms. Nyholm, representing the hospital, is being let go because she is pregnant, and she asks Will to represent her when suing them.

Tropes

  • Bait-and-Switch: Alicia pulls one on Peter, making it look like they are moving to a bigger place, then revealing it's just him moving there.
  • Easily-Overheard Conversation: Will and Alicia overhear Ms. Nyholm's story to her baby through the baby-monitor.
  • Hypocrite: Discussed. Grace thinks it's hypocritical to keep it from people that her parents are separated. Alicia tries to explain that she and her brother are old enough to understand the difference between the truth and other people's business.
  • Slut-Shaming: Ms. Nyholm claims she's being fired for having a functioning vagina.
