Plot summary
This episode begins where the last one ended, with young assistant state's attorney Wendy Scott-Carr announcing her intention to run for state's attorney at a gala dinner in front of Alicia, Peter, and the Lockhart, Gardner and Bond partners. While Peter and Eli try to figure out what this means for their campaign, Alicia is called back to the firm on an urgent matter. A massage therapist claims that a revered humanitarian and women's rights activist sexually assaulted her. Will gets into a scuffle with the humanitarian's lawyer. In the next few hours, the firm investigates the massage therapist and mulls over her potential case. The humanitarian offers to endorse Peter in return for Alicia's firm backing off the case; Peter refuses but gets the endorsement anyway. Finally, the therapist decides that she doesn't want exposure and decides not to sue.
