At the request of Colonel Leora Kuhn, Alicia takes on the case of Capt. Laura Hellinger who is attempting to sue a private security firm after one of its employees tried to rape her while on a tour of duty in Afghanistan. Alicia manages to get a court order ordering the security officer, Ricky Waters, to appear but it's clear the military does not want the Captain to be successful. Kalinda's husband Nick doesn't win the contract he was seeking. The firm has found a way to having the winning bid invalidated.....if it wants to. Eli decides to fight fire with fire by getting journalist Peggy Byrne to report on the objectivity of Mandy Post, the reporter who seems overly keen to smear Peter. Maddie Hayward drops something of a bombshell on Alicia's lap.
