A bereaved wife sues a newspaper for damages, since they printed a cartoon of Mohammed. She hires Jonas Stern. After learning that the cartoonist is a kid and the plane bomb might have been an inside job, Alicia falls on dirty tactics — namely that she knows Stern is senile, and has a harder time focusing than he used to. She objects a lot to disrupt his concentration.
Cary learns that Julius and others may be defecting to Stern's firm. Peter's born-again Christian schtick continues.
Tropes
- Mistaken for Racist: Kalinda doesn't like the idea of racially profiling the bomber. Cary suggests it might be that the bomber was simply framing it to look like a Muslim did it as revenge for the cartoon.
- Ripped from the Headlines: Stern mentions what happened in Denmark after a Danish cartoonist did something similar.
