This is one of the funniest episodes of the entire series. When the head of the Law Review, Gerald Golden, has his parking space taken by a computer geek, called a wonk, he has the wonk's car stolen This starts a war between the law review and the wonks. The war reaches the high point when the wonks takes over all of the law reviews hours on the schools mainframe, as well as the wonks dismantling Golden's car and putting it back together inside the law review office. That's when Professor Kingsfield takes over and challenges the wonks, him versus the computer. If he wins the law review gets their hours back.He also comments that Golden's left front tire needs some air. Will Kingsfield win and get the precious hours back so Golden can finish this months edition of the Law review, or will he lose. That's all the fun in the episode. The performances are wonderful, especially Michael Tucci as Golden. His despair and almost falling into madness are wonderful to watch. I just love it when they lose all access to the computer mainframe, so he walks over to his car, closes the windows and then screams.
There also is a nice subplot between first year law student Soloway, (Steben Peterman) falling in love with a wonk girl, and having both sides trying to pull them apart. A wonderful gem of an episode is just one gem in an excellent series, that should be put on DVD one of these days, as more people should know how great this show is.
