THE GOOD WIFE #105 "For the Camera" PINK COLLATED 9/16/09 9.<br />
10 CONTINUED: (2)<br />

The justices pause. A surprisingly good point. Cary lowers<br />
his hand below his seat, and Alicia smiles, privately lowfives<br />
it. And...<br />
11 INT. ILLINOIS APPELATE COURT - TEN MINUTES LATER - DAY<br />
11<br />
...oral arguments over, Bree, Cary, Alicia, and other lawyers<br />
quietly cheer, pat each other on the back as Will nods,<br />
collecting his papers:<br />
WILL<br />
Yeah, nice last minute Hail Mary<br />

WILL<br />
Let me see what I can find out.<br />

PATRICE<br />

Clarence’s wife.<br />
ALICIA<br />

Alicia Florrick.<br />
PATRICE<br />
Do you know why Clarence wasn’t in<br />
court today?<br />
ALICIA<br />
Why? Well-- During an automatic<br />
appeal, the defendant’s not usually<br />
seated. Didn’t anyone tell you?<br />
No. Patrice is at once embarrassed and disappointed. This<br />
is making Alicia uncomfortable.<br />
