The second season of The Good Wife began airing on September 28, 2010, and concluded on May 17, 2011.

Premise[edit]

The series focuses on Alicia Florrick, whose husband Peter, the former Cook County, Illinois State's Attorney, has been jailed following a notorious political corruption and sex scandal. After having spent the previous thirteen years as a stay-at-home mother, Alicia returns to the workforce as a litigator to provide for her two children.[1]

The second season follows Alicia, now a full-time employee at Lockhart & Gardner, while still juggling her private life and her professional life. Most of the plot focuses on the arrival of Derrick Bond, who becomes a partner at the firm, changing the lives of the characters forever. As Alicia continues her career and her tame flirtations with Will Gardner, her husband Peter Florrick tries to regain his post as district attorney. At the end of the season, most of the storylines come to a head as Alicia's relationship with private investigator Kalinda Sharma is put to the test.

Picking up from the season one finale, Alicia is about to join Peter on the dais as Will calls. Eli Gold grabs the phone and gets Alicia to take Peter's hand. Will leaves two messages: the first saying he understands they should just drop it, then the second saying that he loves her, and he's not dropping this. Eli deletes the second message. Before they have a chance to settle things, Will gets caught up in the law firm's merger and has to deal with the new partner, Derrick Bond. In court, Alicia is appointed as a counselor to an accused murderer who insists on defending himself.

Dissatisfied that Alicia wins a not guilty verdict for a young Army reservist accused of murdering his wife, Cary arranges to have the case re-tried in military court. In military court, the trial procedures are different and the law is presented differently, hindering Alicia. But Alicia has a plan and calls Cary to the stand as a witness as a way of producing evidence that gives a break in the case and saves her client. Meanwhile as the campaign for state's attorney kicks into full gear, Childs resorts to dirty tricks in an effort to mar Peter's reputation.
263"Breaking Fast"James Whitmore Jr.Corinne BrinkerhoffOctober 12, 2010 (2010-10-12)11.82[4]
For the first time, Lockhart, Gardner, & Bond go squarely on the offensive against the prosecutors, filing a multimillion-dollar malicious prosecution suit against the state's attorney's office for ruining an innocent defendant's life. Childs is desperate to defend his department's decisions while covering himself; Diane and Will debate how to best utilize Alicia in a case against her husband's political opponent; and Kalinda and Cary go head-to-head in trying to determine the true culprit's identity. All of the maneuvering builds to one explosive conflict between Alicia and Glenn Childs that could make or break the case — and ultimately, the campaign.
274"Cleaning House"Rosemary RodriguezRobert King & Michelle KingOctober 19, 2010 (2010-10-19)12.17[5]
Alicia once again faces the impossibly sweet young Nancy Crozier, only this time she's her co-counsel and – supposedly – on the same side of the case. Although Alicia is prepared for her innocent-with-a-dagger routine, it was originally thought that it could work toward their common goal: defending their linked clients in a civil suit. But when Nancy proves as dangerous as the opposition, Alicia fights on two fronts and ultimately outmaneuvers Nancy to protect her own client.

While Peter and Eli try to figure out what this means for their campaign, Alicia is called back to the firm on an urgent matter. A massage therapist claims that a revered humanitarian and women's rights activist sexually assaulted her. Will gets into a scuffle with the humanitarian's lawyer. In the next few hours, the firm investigates the massage therapist and mulls over her potential case.

The firm crosses swords with a brilliant disabled attorney named Louis Canning who is cynically deployed by a desperate pharmaceutical company to battle the claim that their new billion-dollar antidepressant caused the grisly murder-suicide of the firm's client's parents. Caitlin Fenton is the plaintiff in the test case. Winning it would open the door for tens of millions of dollars in class action money.

But the case gets more complex when the drugs are found to have come from a pharmacy where the clerk was murdered.

While defending Scott Bauer, an internet spam distributor accused of murdering his father, Alicia and Will are stymied by hostile judge Edward Weldon due to an altercation he had with Will on the basketball court. To make matters worse, the prosecution was able to get a picture entered into evidence that showed Scott dressed in a Nazi SS uniform for a WWII war reenactment.

Edelstein is suing the makers of a biopic that he claims is defaming him, and while Will knows the case will be a tough sell, he also knows that he can milk this "cash cow" for hundreds of billable hours. After meeting with Edelstein in the deposition, however, Will begins believing in him. After a talk with Honeycutt, the cynical lawyer representing the film studio, Will resolves to try and win the long-shot defamation case instead of just trying to milk it for the cash. While meeting with the screenwriter, though, Will gets a better idea: challenging on the basis of Patric's right to publicity. If he claims that the studio is usurping Patric's right to control his own publicity, he can get a settlement without proving the much-more-difficult defamation claim.

But when Alicia sees Internet billionaire Patric Edelstein in the firm's office, she begins to suspect that the firm has an ulterior motive for taking Shen's case.

Stern had been on the verge of settling, but Canning insists on a trial.
