Alicia's campaign for State's Attorney speeds up after Frank Prady's announcement. Eli and Elfman conduct a political focus group regarding her likeability. Meanwhile, Alicia takes on a rape case of one of Owen's students that moves a university hearing to civil court, where she faces Louis Canning. Through discovery, Cary and Diane finally hear the wiretap audio that implicates him in the drug trafficking charge; Cary and Diane practice cross-examination in an attempt to rebut it. Alicia annoys Eli after she volunteers at a soup kitchen and is photographed awkwardly. Incumbent State's Attorney Castro withdraws from the election and Finn begins his own private practice, leasing office space underneath Florrick/Agos & Lockhart.
