![]() Her insider information goes up in flames when a Judge Jared Quinn – Griffin Dunne of the 80s cult classic After Hours – steps in for “good” Judge Hale, and quickly proves to be a much different beast. Alicia and Javier are joined at the table by two other men Alicia relays Peter’s advice about approaching the judge, and suggests that she present both motions. Look, we’ve got a good judge, a good motion, and we succeeded in combining our defenses so we can’t be used against each other.” Well, that laid out the strategy pretty neatly, even if we have no idea why, or by whom, Javier is being sued. ![]() “Javier, you wouldn’t be happy if you didn’t have something to worry about. Yes, Alicia says, smiling, you should worry. I’m telling you, this show is all about the facial hair of late. (And, wait, do the same judges hear civil and criminal cases both? I guess they must, because otherwise, why would Peter know this judge so well?) The client’s a young man with a small beard. “So I’m supposed to worry they’re asking for 8 million,” Alicia’s client wonders. The best ads are ones you don’t notice yourself noticing. ![]() Maybe if she’d used the case later, it would have felt more organic? Nice for Apple, of course, since it shows off a function I hadn’t particularly heard about, but still, little over the top. I have to say, I don’t mind product placement when it fits the plot (Cary has to drive some sort of car, so I don’t really care that it was a Buick) but this was just a touch gratuitous. Hello, product placement! We get a nice view of the ipad as Alicia (sitting in court) flips through the presumably relevant Trent v. I can’t say anything.” This is tricky, isn’t it?
