At this point I'd like to stop and talk about my expectations for this episode. I'm sure, from reading our fine bulletin boards here at MBTV, that I'm not the only viewer who was looking forward to watching Georgia exact revenge on Billy. We've watched her watch Billy as he enjoyed Ally's attentions, became a proud misogynist, bossed her around, belittled her, and humiliated her in front of her co-workers. We were led to believe, through the use of time-honored symbols such as the new hair-do and the brightly-colored garment, that Georgia was about to stand up for herself and show Billy where exactly to park his dorkmobile. We've sat through the offensive beginnings of the season. We're ready for the pay-off. So what do we get? We get the message, I guess. DEK lets us know that if we've hooted once on Georgia's behalf this year, it's because we're embittered, angry, little, man-hating bitches. Billy is smirking at us while John, Richard, Ling, Nelle, and Ally watch complacently. Should I start watching The Practice instead, now? Or does DEK make another program designed for the CGI-realized fantasies of embittered, angry, big, jerk-hating bitches like me? Well, there are still more than fifty minutes to go. Let's not be too hasty. Let's give David a chance.

Tim tells Judge Raymond Norway that Fish & Cage is a firm dominated by sex -- interoffice sex. John maintains that Georgia is looking to lash out at the firm because she's unable to sue Billy in this no-fault state. The judge adjourns until two o'clock, which is the Magic Hour Until Which These Things Are Always Adjourned, in case you hadn't noticed. Ally wears a hideous beige and black plaid pantsuit as she says, "If I could only get her alone." Then what, Ally? You'd use your pretend friendship with Georgia to persuade her to drop the suit? And then you'd get a bonus, right? Or is it that Billy would be grateful enough to stay after work and talk about unicorns every single day? She stands really close to Ling and asks her to help distract Tim. "How?" purrs Ling, as they look down towards each other's breasts. Maybe she's hoping to kiss Ally some more this weekend.
