A month has passed since the great Florrick Agos schism, and things are moving fast on both sides of the split. Will Gardner unveils a slick new rebrand — Lockhart Gardner is now LG, complete with word-art logo, because nothing says prestige law firm like the early 2000s — while Diane looks on with barely concealed contempt. Meanwhile, Natalie Flores (America Ferrera) is back in Chicago and needs a favor: her friend Tomas is facing deportation, and a snitch visa might be the only way to keep him in the country. Alicia takes the case and goes full boss mode, but the real hero of this episode is Robin, who channels her inner Kalinda to save the day. And somewhere in the middle of all this chaos, Eli Gold finally figures out that lying to Natalie about his feelings is a lot harder than lying for a living.
