Episode 5: A mostly good episode with some matters of interest in it, centered on issues out of court, cause a trial won't (seemingly) take place, that's a one-time hit in the water; we have related developing plots with some tiny psychological suspense, overall good acting and unfortunately a closure ending, as it happens with most episodes of the show.

VIP Treatment So True to Life ****
edwagreen27 October 2010
What are the ramifications of filing a lawsuit regarding sexual harassment or assault? This theme is excellently examined in the latest episode of this hit television show.
Notice how politics is used to get a law firm to drop its pending case. Notice how the accused has to be questioned thoroughly, not only to see if the veracity is true, but to see how she would be under cross examination from the defense.
While this is going on, Peter has to now contend with an able black woman entering the race for state attorney general. Will the 2 gentlemen divide their vote and therefore bring this woman victory?
Even the mild-mannered, Will Gardner is brought into a fist fight here showing that there is only so much that a human being can take, especially when provoked.
Anyone beginning to realize that if they ever making a film biography of the late Susan Hayward, Julianne Margulies would be perfect to play the outstanding actress?
