The Good Wife Season 6 Episode 7, "Message Discipline," splits clean down the middle: Cary's case and Alicia's campaign, with barely room for anything else. Finn goes hunting for what really happened during Cary Agos's time at the state's attorney's office and turns up two missing kilos, a case board, and a very pointed conversation with Geneva Pine. Diane fights a proof-of-other-crimes charge while Kalinda works a 30-foot leash and a lab tech with a suspicious bank balance. Meanwhile Alicia meets a Chicago broadcasting institution played by David Hyde Pierce, gets a brutal media-prep session from Elfman, and walks into an interview nobody prepared her for. Somebody quits. Somebody else announces. Jason and Marissa also settle the cheese curd question.
