Season 6 opens with a whole new energy on The Good Pod. Jason and Marissa dive into "The Line," which picks up seconds after last season's finale, then throws Alicia Florrick into chaos on every front. Eli is pushing her to run for state's attorney, Diane Lockhart wants back into the firm with $38 million in clients, and Cary Agos ends up in jail on a staggering drug transportation charge with a $1.3 million bail attached. Kalinda gets tangled with an old flame while trying to work the case from the inside, and Eli quietly starts playing chess with Peter's political future. Jason and Marissa break down the new format, the new haircuts, and why this might be the most Will-free episode of the series yet.
