Daniel Post convinces his new love, Denise Bauer, that he should second-chair in her case against overbearing parents who harass their teenaged daughter’s teacher.

Meanwhile, Shirley Schmidt makes life difficult for Alan Shore as he prepares his defense of Jerry “Hands” Espenson, the firm’s brilliant but quirky attorney who held a cake knife to Shirley’s throat.

And the partners at Crane, Poole and Schmidt worry about Denny Crane’s impending nuptials and the kind of influence his future wife, Beverly Bridge, could have over the firm.

Episode Quotes
 
Alan: Good for you, you've enlisted the one prosecutor running for D.A. next year. Tell me, how big was your campaign contribution and is there a matching fund here at the firm we can all go in on.
Shirley: It was sizable and speak to Kim in accounting.
 
Shirley: Understand that everyone at this firm is considered a witness. Don't expect anyone to help you or speak to you.
Alan: Won't that make for a refreshing change.
 
Daniel Post: Think of it as the Make a Wish Foundation granting a dying kid his fantasy, if that kid was a rich guy in his 40's.
 
Daniel Post: Daniel Post.
Denny: Denny Crane.
Daniel Post: I'm a client.
Denny: I'm a partner.
Daniel Post: CEO, Kreisberg-Pellum.
Denny: My name is on the door.
 
(To Shirley after she learns Jerry is out on Bail.)
Alan: I'm surprised your lackey at the D.A.'s office didn't keep you abreast of this. Perhaps, you didn't tip him enough.
 
Melissa: So, you won't be mad if I ignore you in the hall and just look at your shoes?
Alan: I'll try to wear nice shoes.
 
Bev: Did you know he has a position called the Schmidt?
Shirley: Would that be where I read a magazine, while he lies passed out on the floor?
 
Bev: And why did you screw him?
Shirley: I lost a bet.
 
Shirley: I came here today with the intention of telling you that if you ever do anything to hurt my friend, Denny, or this firm, I'll see to it you are hunted down legally an literally until you are penniless and left to troll airport bars looking for alcoholic pilots nearing retirement age.
 
Denise: Let's stop the badgering.
Daniel Post: No one should be able to do that sort of thing to anybody. Unless they, themselves, are actually... a badger.
 
Alan: Asperger Syndrome? Sounds like something you cure with an ointment.
 
Bev: You hate me, don't you?
Alan: Bev, I don't know you well enough to hate you, love you, or be indifferent to you.
 
Denny: She has many fine qualities.
Alan: She makes my friend smile. That's the only quality that matters.
 
Denny: Alan, Bev is the woman I've always dreamed of... an angel in the bedroom, a whore in the kitchen.
Alan: I think it's the other way around.
Denny: Not last night.
