As the office reels from the surprising outcome of Quinn’s (Katie Lowes) trial, Olivia (Kerry Washington) is called in by the wife (Lorraine Toussaint) of a missing preacher and prominent civil rights leader.

With their boss dead, Red John in the wind, and their suspensions lifted the CBI team goes back to work, thanks in no small part to some finagling between Gale Bertram (Michael Gaston) and his opposite number at the FBI (Polly Walker). Jane (Simon Baker) is much more interested in talking with Lorelei (Emmanuelle Chriqui), and learning all he can from her about Red John, but until a deal with the FBI can be worked out no one will be speaking with the captured member of Red John’s inner circle.
