Plot summary

Russell Bakey plagues Helen and Stanley Deeks continues plaguing Lindsay. Bakey's overprotective mother Sylvia now sues Helen for defamation over her trial cross examination, while Eugene and Jimmy can't convince Bakey to stop threatening Helen. Deeks ties Lindsay's hands on client privilege after admitting he's killed a young girl whose desperate parents want to find and bury her---which leads to her and Claire being jailed for contempt for refusing to violate attorney-client privilege and disclose the body's location. Deeks visits the dead girl's body where he killed her. After being freed, Lindsay admits to Bobby that one reason she began her own practise was to begin leaving him when she began to believe troubled workaholic Bobby was no longer in love with her. After sending the dead girl's body to Lindsay in a large parcel package, Deeks confronts Bakey at the latter's home.
