It would have been much better developed over a long time, you're right. I honestly thought this was the last ep of the season, and it got tacked on in such a way that I wondered if it was the last ep of the series.
It seems like the writer's strike has thrown the series off stride and it's never quite gotten back.
The episode's direction seemed quite uninspired to me, too. I was sort of bugged by the Supreme Court justice lookalike actors. That attempt at verisimilitude is always a mistake.
