Alicia (Julianna Margulies) has finally acknowledged that it is time to abandon ship in the upcoming episode of the CBS series "The Good Wife."

When Cary (Matt Czuchry) offered her and Lucca (Cush Jumbo) posts in Lockhart, Agos, and Lee, Alicia was understandably hesitant. She worked hard to start her new firm, and even consented to turn her own home into a working office. As long as she and Lucca were winning cases for their clients, she was satisfied. She never realized that several clients have been complaining, not of her service, but the work place she has made in her apartment.

When Cary learned of the situation, he decided to talk to both Alicia and Lucca. Alicia readily refused his offer, but the other woman said she wanted some time to think. Lucca eventually agreed to return to Lockhart, Agos, and Lee, and now, so will Alicia. They will soon find out, though, that working in a big firm will be a big adjustment for them. In the upcoming episode titled "Monday," CarterMatt reports that both lawyers will learn exactly how taxing it is to work under Cary's company, especially if the case they will be handling will split the firm into two.

Alicia's first case will reportedly involve a new computer tablet, which had been well kept under wraps.  Aside from the case, she also needs to prepare for the malpractice suit filed by her former bond client. The man's new lawyer wanted to put the blame on Alicia for why her client has been languishing behind bars for not being able to pay the huge bail. In her defense, Alicia gunned for Judge Schakowsky (Christopher McDonald), who worked on the case just to spite her. Unfortunately, it looks like Alicia will lose this one, which makes her all the more confused and absent-minded. Will she be okay?

"The Good Wife" season 11 airs Sundays at 9 p.m. EST on CBS.
