This episode is the first
season finale. So this will mean that I won’t be writing about new episodes
until the show returns sometime next season. I probably should have never
started this blog, but I think that I am stuck with it for quite some time.
Well, maybe not too long, but it could be a while. Hopefully I can post this
update pretty soon. With the Good Wife airing more episodes after this one
tonight, my blogs can be a bit lopsided. Of course, the Good Wife has to return
for next season for it to stay tied into this blog. I also have to remember
that I had a dream where I had a Bob’s Burgers blog. So I might have to start a
blog about that to. I don’t know yet if I will. Meanwhile, I wonder if there is
a cliffhanger in this episode that I have to wait through the summer to see how
it is resolved.
Today’s episode is brought to
you by no delay. We begin with Elizabeth talking to her friend (or former
friend) about the events of the last episode. This friend says that Elizabeth
will get into trouble for the torture that she authorized. This could lead into
the trouble that this episode promised in the promotion. She talks to various
people about it.
In segment two, Stevie talks
to her boss about how they broke off their relationship. He thought that she
was flirting with him. She also puts on a nice looking dress to go to an event
at the white house. Subpoenas seem to come up in this episode a lot as Henry
gets served. Also, Elizabeth is more or less forced to take some time off, I
believe.
In segment three, the mess of
a hearing going on continues to rule and complicate the episode at hand. It
wasn’t a vacation that Elizabeth was forced to take. She was forced to use
executive privilege, it seems. I don’t fully understand what that is. But she
might have violated the espionage act. There are also flashbacks to Elizabeth
potentially working in Bagdad. Also, a picture of the former secretary of state
is planning on being replaced. Much like Daisy’s romances, Stevie has strange
romantic subplots that don’t seem to be worked out as well as it should. Also,
Elizabeth decides that she should testify after all.
In segment four, Stevie hooks
up with her boss, by the appearance of things. Elizabeth says that she broke
the espionage act for the good of the country. There might be negative
repercussions for her. Maybe this is all a set up for season 2.
In segment five, it’s hard to
summarize the end of the season. The person who tried to kill an Iranian
diplomat is still being interrogated, but that wasn’t as much a focus as it
could have been. I’m not sure where they are going with season 2. I just know
that there is a strange end to season 1. Meanwhile, I have two blog posts from
earlier season episodes to do first before I post about the second season in
the future. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
