'The Good Wife' Season 5 Spoilers: Alicia Rekindles Her Affair with Will as Peter is Caught Cheating on Her? [VIDEO]
Alicia Florrick (Juliana Margulies) might go back to Will after she finds out that Peter has been cheating on her again on The Good Wife.
The Dec. 1 episode left a lot of interesting plot points worth exploring, including Marilyn Garbanza's admittance that she is pregnant and intends to name her child Peter. This information caused Peter's publicist Eli Gold (Alan Cumming) to spit out his water. The scene has left many to believe her child's rumored father is none other than Governor Florrick.
While the show is on a brief winter hiatus, season 5 is set to resume airing on Jan. 5 and spoilers for the new episodes have already begun to surface, hinting at the possibility of Peter's alleged affair being a major point of contention.
A new character named Lorraine will be introduced by way of flashbacks from season 1, Enstars previously reported. Lorraine will meet Alicia under the pretense of a job interview, but her real motives will involve finding out more about Peter's first affair.
The Good Wife Seaon 5 Spoilers: Alicia & will Get Back Together? She Thinks He's a "Sexual Object."
Good Wife creators Robert and Michelle King recently hinted that Alicia and Will still habor feelings for each other and might act upon their enduring desires if the opportunity happens to arise.
While speaking of what Alicia was going through with Will -- and if she was relatively less hurt about leaving him -- the showrunners suggested that she would always be attracted to Will.
"She's not more over it than he is. At the end of act one, when she looks over at him and sees what he's suggesting, that he wants to put her on the stand, it's like, 'Oh my God, your hatred really is appalling,' " Robert said. "You're seeing her disbelief that he's gonna go there, that he's going to use pillow talk in his cross examination."
"But when she remembers him rubbing her leg under the table, it's because she's still attracted to the idea of Will as sexual object. And obviously what comes with that is passion for love, or passion for another person," he added. "I don't think she's over it at all. Will just hasn't faced his heartbreak until this moment, and it's coming out in very ugly and depressing ways."
In The Decision Tree, which was also the show's 100th episode, Alicia found out at the Florrick/Ago holiday party that one of her former clients had left her a small fortune in his will. She had to fight to claim her share of the money when Lockhart/Gardner disputed the will by representing the deceased client's wife.
