Haha, that's awesome. And now I wish I'd taken a cap.

Okay, let's see. Denny and Alan go to trial. Denny pretty much doesn't do anything but stare at/hit on the client. Well, he brings in his publicist. Alan gets thrown for a loop when it comes out that Courtney Reese knew the photographer she shot and had once petitioned to get a restraining order against him, but he manages to make a strong case and gives his usual kickass closing. This one features talk of a study about monkeys. How much crap must he read? While the jury's deliberating, he and Courtney have some alone-time (not a euphemism!) and he tells he that although she may think she can get anyone she wants just by snapping her fingers, celebrity doesn't matter to him. (If you can't find it anywhere else, I'll transcribe his scenes with her, because they're awesome.) The jury comes back, she's found not guilty. Barry and Denny both kiss her. Excessively. Again she and Alan go off together and it's fairly apparent there's a mutual attraction. Alan, however, says that Denny saw her first and that makes her Denny's girl ("In his mind." "Where it counts."). She ends up kissing him on the cheek and that's it because omg he's so loyal <333333.

Brad asks the ADA he'd previously blown off during an interview at CP&S for help with his niece's case. She makes him get on his knees and beg, literally, but she does agree to help. Before the judge she asks his niece get only three months of jail time, but the judge says he won't sentence her to anything less than three years and makes it pretty clear that, trial or not, that's what she'll be serving. Brad is understandably pisses and the ADA tells him the judge's daughter died of a drug overdose some years ago so it may be personal. She also tells him the judge once had a thing with Schmidt. Brad, out of options, goes to see Shirley and more or less asks her to exploit her relationship with the judge. She then pulls an Alan--goes to see him and threatens to 1) look through his decisions for any patterns in drug-related cases 2) expose his affair with her to the judge's wife.

Oh, man, Denise and Marlene. Denise asks Brad to speak to the senior partners on her behalf. Brad kind of balks and they have a brief discussion about their relationship, after which Brad agrees to do so. Marlene, however, witnesses the entire conversation and thus ensues another frenzied dash to get to Shirley first. Denise makes it, blurts out that she and Brad have been having sex, and everything goes downhill from there. Shirley calls Denise and Marlene into her office, mentions that it was always their intention that Marlene make partner and that she and Denise were by no means in competition, and then sends Marlene out. Shirley--hahhaha, this is great. She tells Denise she won't be making partner (I couldn't tell if she meant now or ever) because of her relationship with Brad. Denise gets all indignant and starts pointing out all the sexual relationship's Alan's had in the office. Shirley then, quite rightfully, says, "You're comparing yourself to Alan Shore now?" Denise leaves the office in a state of distress, but who should she see in the lobby but Daniel (aka Marty McFly Michael J. Fox). He takes her to dinner and asks her to marry him.

Denny and Alan come back from LA. Denny has a cute exchange with Shirley. She laments the fact that he was unable to convince Courtney Reese to marry him, and he convinces her to kiss him. ♥ Alan drags Marlene into his office and things are thrown everywhere. Alan then shows up on the balcony with some wicked-looking cuts on his face and tells Denny a spider got into his office. They drink scotch and are OTP. And toast next season.
