A whole bunch of stills from the upcoming episode, entitled Old Spice, of The Good Wife, were recently revealed by CBS.

Alicia Takes Her First Campaign Interview With Hyde Pierce In Episode 7?

The stills mostly focus on Alicia (Julianna Margulies) and Elsbeth Tascioni (Carrie Preston) in the courtroom, although this time it is not for the case they were fighting, which pitted them against each other in the previous episode, but a twist of fate which has dragged both of them to the same side as the government charges their client with economic espionage.

The images also feature Cary (Matt Czuchry), guest star Kyle MacLachlan as Josh Perotti, David Lee (Zach Grenier) and Louis Canning (Michael J. Fox).

Here's the entire synopsis:

An "Internal Crisis" Will Threaten To Destroy Florrick-Agos

"Alicia and Elsbeth put their legal battle on hold when the government brings an economic espionage charge against both of their clients. Meanwhile, Diane sets her sights on moving Florrick/Agos/Lockhart into the Lockhart/Gardner/Canning office space, leading to a battle with her former partners David Lee and Louis Canning, on THE GOOD WIFE."

The preview for the episode shines a light on Alicia's parallel life as she runs for State's Attorney.

In the clip Alicia is surrounded by all assisting with her campaign, and things are getting pretty intense for her. She has been assigned a "body woman," Eli's (Alan Cumming) daughter Marissa (Sarah Steele), who tells her she will stick to her and making sure she's no time and that her food is unpoisoned.

The exercise is to make her a "believable candidate." In the promo a political consultant is seen discussing the subject of God with her. The tag line also reveals that the process will "test her faith." Religion and faith in God are always a sticky topic in political campaigns, and Alicia is an unapologetic atheist. She discussed the issue with her kids in an earlier season, and in this chapter she also shared her views on religiosity with Dean Wilkins (Taye Diggs) in an episode titled Dear God.

Old Spice will be released on October 26 at 9:30 pm ET and 9pm PT on CBS.
