Picking up from the season one finale, Alicia is about to join Peter on the dais as Will calls. Eli grabs the phone and gets Alicia to take Peter's hand.

Before they have a chance to settle things, Will gets caught up in the law firm merger and has to deal with the new partner, Derrick Bond.

Dissatisfied that Alicia wins a not guilty verdict for a young Army Reservist accused of murdering his wife, Cary has the case re-tried in military court. In military court, the rules are different and the law is presented differently stacking the decks against Alicia.

But when Nancy proves as dangerous as the opposition, Alicia fights on two fronts and ultimately outmaneuvers her to protect her client. | ||||||

Will takes on the defamation case of wunderkind internet billionaire Patric Edelstein, the 25-year-old founder of Sleuth.com.

After meeting with Patric in the deposition, however, Will begins believing in the kid. After a talk with Honeycutt, the cynical lawyer representing the studio, Will resolves to try and win the long-shot defamation case instead of just trying to milk it for the cash. While meeting with the screenwriter, though, Will gets a better idea: challenging Patric's right to publicity.

But when Alicia sees Patric Edelstein, (the internet billionaire from 214) in the office, she begins to suspect that the firm has an ulterior motive for taking Shen's case.
