I actually managed to watch this on time this week and I thought it was a very average episode - nothing great, but nothing that totally ruffled my feathers either. Mostly just felt like it was setup.
Stray thoughts/responses: --Damian, huh? I was just THINKING this show needed another villain. Yes. This. Also, I know that I want more Kalinda...but I need them to not take this where I think they might. Blake 2.0 should not be on the menu. Ever. And fingers crossed that Jordana Spiro's character (who I think debuts next week?) doesn't end up as Dana Lodge 2.0.
That being said, as villains go...I kind of like Damian. Or maybe I just like the accent :)
-- That scene with Alicia and Robyn just made me want A/K. Brought me back to S1 when they actually did things together. Maybe there should be an AU fic about this...hmm.
-- Diane in S3 had it right when she asked, "Am I the only adult left here?" I'm gonna call this now...but somehow Diane and Alicia are going to join forces by the end of this season. The parallel they drew of Alicia rolling her eyes at the arguing fourthies and Diane mirroring her at "LG" seemed too pointed for them to ignore. Not to mention Diane's comment to Will at the end about it reminding her of them.
--Broken Record, but I miss the old, somewhat likable Alicia. And a Kalinda that actually felt integrated with the show. :(

I'm wondering if as Eli burns through replacements for Diane on the Supreme Court if Alicia doesn't eventually say "What the hell?" and Diane gets it offered again. Because she was removed purely for spite, she's still a good candidate. And that leads to an Alicia reconciliation with Diane.
Maybe she doesn't accept it. Maybe if Josh Charles doesn't sign on for Season 6 they'll wind up LG and Diane either becomes a judge or joins FA. No idea what they'll do with Kalinda in that case though. *glooms*
