Complete story — includes the ending

Will Gardner defends a client who is accused of killing her husband for his fortune, in Laura Hellinger's first case as ASA. The case alone could get the firm out of debt, freeing them of supervision of the trustee. However, when Will encounters the inebriated judge in a bar, the judge voices his opinion on not only the case but on Will as a lawyer, and the firm brings a motion to substitute the judge for bias. A classmate of Grace kills herself after her boyfriend Connor breaks their relationship, and Grace becomes dangerously attracted to Connor. Eli tries to involve Alicia's children more in the campaign after a tracker videotapes Grace. Cary draws the suspicious eye of Kalinda's husband, Nick.
