And it's back!
Easily the best episode of the season. Full on drama with powerful emotions.
Episode starts out comically. Michael J. Fox's character is back and it only takes a moment before he and Alicia are battling it out, going toe-to-toe on a case.
But the episode turns dark when Alicia's daughter goes missing. Juliana Marguiles is absolutely riveting in this episode. The growing terror is written all over her face as she frantically searches for her daughter, coming up empty. You can see how she tries to remain calm and strong but simply cannot. The trembling beneath the surface is masterful.
And the writers seek to repair Kalinda and Alicia's friendship by having Kalinda come to the rescue. As soon as she gets wind of what's going on, Kalinda does what she does best. It's also a masterstroke to have Kalinda not tell Alicia she found her daughter. It makes her that much more noble.
Show strikes a high note here. Now, they need to sustain it.
