Complete story — includes the ending

Chuck's neighbor reports him for taking her newspaper, and due to his living conditions causing the police to believe he is producing meth, they kick in his door and tase him. Chuck is hospitalized, and the doctor, believing that his "disease" is psychosomatic, wants to have him committed, but Jimmy declines. Jimmy's newfound fame attracts less than promising clients. Among them is an elderly woman who he helps prepare her will; her bequests consisting almost entirely of leaving her Hummel figurines to various friends and family members. Jimmy's rapport with her leads his colleague Kim Wexler to suggest that he specialize in elder law. Jimmy begins promoting himself at a nursing home, wearing clothes like the fictional TV lawyer Matlock. Meanwhile, Mike is visited at home by several Philadelphia police officers.
