The Good Wife: Season 5, Episode 20 - The Deep Web

The Good Pod is back to break down The Good Wife Season 5, Episode 20, AKA "How Alicia Almost Got Her Groove Back." Three storylines collide this week: Diane Lockhart fights to keep her footing at the firm as Lewis Canning, David Lee, and a very suspicious Finn Pollard circle her office, all tangled up in a Silk Road/Bitcoin case involving Lyle Pollard's grandson Robbie. Meanwhile, Alicia gets pushed out of the office by an oddly aggressive Cary, ends up on jury duty next to a very charming Nestor Carbonell, and spends the episode wrestling with a question that hits harder than she expects: who exactly is she being faithful to? And Eli Gold slides back into campaign-manager mode, coaching Finn Pollard through the interview of his political life.
