September 8

Episode Description

Peter’s political future collides with Alicia’s principles as Mike Kresteva storms back onto the scene with a press conference, a governor bid, and a reality-bending spin that tests everyone’s patience (and sanity). Meanwhile, the case of the week reopens a camp murder tied to the tainted crime lab: three women convicted as teens face an Alford plea that pits freedom against future. Kalinda digs up a surprisingly simple clue that reframes the night of the crime, while guest star Julianne Nicholson (Callie) shakes things up in and out of court. On the home front, Jackie makes a power play involving Alicia’s old house—then drops a late-episode bomb that could change the family calculus. Politics, pride, and prime-time gaslighting… this one’s packed.
