Ally is assigned to litigation when Fish's partner, John Cage, is faced with possible jail time and certain public humiliation. Meanwhile, Fish invites Ally to dinner with a wealthy potential client, but Ally is shocked when she realizes the dinner is a double date, not a meet-and-greet with a client.
