No matter how hard you might give a shot to hide from Monday morning, it always finds you.
Afterthe big Coterie party, both Adams Foster sisters are suffering from some extreme Sunday Scaries.
Mariana seems to take it as a win, but you in danger, girl.
When she confronts him about stealing it, he denies, denies, denies.
Marianas powerless to fight him.
She knows she could be getting a lot more done and complete projects faster than Blue Teams current output.
Now theyll be expected to work that fast on every project.
Hes the boss and she shouldnt forget that.
You guys, Im already chilling some champagne for the day when Marianas made Team Leader over Alex.
It will bethe mostsatisfying.
Its time to party.
The move feels very un-Mariana like, and I suspect it wont last for long.
Put it on a T-shirt, because our girl is right.
Because that warms my cold, dead, tired-of-the-patriarchy heart.
Callie has the opposite journey of her sister.
Shes going to tell him what he wants to hear.
That plan lasts mere minutes.
Thats a problem for Callie.
When writers block and crises of conscience strike, what does a hot, young lawyer do?
Jamies back, you guys!
They met before Eliza and Brandons wedding and then made out during wedding festivities in Turks and Caicos.
She, a liberal do-gooder, he, a corporate lawyer their chemistry was palpable.
I love Callie and Gael, but I also love Callie and Jamie.
A love triangle: what a treat!
She also seeks advice about living with Malika.
He also asks if maybe they could have a meal not shrouded in attorney-client privilege.
She hands it over to Wilson, and quickly learns that Jamies right about the counter clerk stuff.
When she brings up the idea to Wilson, he pretty much laughs in her face.
Hes an experienced federal judge, he already knows the liberal argument.
Hes not the bad guy!
He further proves this by surprising everyone in court.
Jamals mother will get her day in court.
Callies obviously happy about that, but things are about to get much more complicated.
Because of all the protests shes been organizing, Malikas gotten much closer to Jamals mother, Sandra.
So close, in fact, that shes sitting next to her in the courtroom now.
Ben notices Callie go on edge at the sight of Malika next to Sandra.
Family Dinner
Dont think Marianas run-in with head honcho Evan Speck will just be dropped.
Working late one night she literally bumps into him, spilling coffee everywhere and cracking his phone.
He doesnt seem to mind much.
Everyones trying to hold our girl down not for long, patriarchy!
She also tosses out aHarry Potterreference in an everyday work conversation, which, like, respect.
This trial thing is getting in the way of what could be a wonderful friendship between Callie and Malika.
Not many people would understand what they went through in the foster care system.
Malika, who cant believe Lawyer Callie went to juvie, is still avoiding her sick mother.
(We also get a flashback to a young Malika and her brother Dom getting separated by CPS.)
Callie would be a good support system for what shes going through.
Alas, the complications of the law!
Sex god Gael is very sad this evening!
He set aside some money to have a few of his pieces bronzed for an upcoming gallery show.
Gaels too good of a person to say no.
Good-bye, art show.
Yes, she changed her mind on the meal.
Next stop: kissing?
