The Good Wife: Season 4, Episode 16 - Runnin' with the Devil

The Good Pod dives deep into The Good Wife Season 4, Episode 16, “Runnin’ with the Devil,” an episode packed with future Good Verse heavyweights. Jason and Marissa break down the first (and only) Good Wife appearance of Liz Lawrence (Audra McDonald), who goes head-to-head with Alicia in a case involving none other than Lemond Bishop. We also meet the delightfully menacing Charles Lester (Wallace Shawn), and a new investigator shakes things up at the firm. There’s legal scheming, old rivalries, growing pains (literally), and Kalinda-Cary tension heating back up. This one’s a must-watch!

 00:12 – Alicia takes on Lemond Bishop’s latest legal drama
 10:45 – Liz Lawrence enters the courtroom…and the Good Verse
 18:30 – Charles Lester: bumbling lawyer or quiet menace?
 33:50 – Kalinda gets a new “assistant” (cue the tension)
 49:00 – Cary and Kalinda: awkward flirting or something more?
