Eli gets a glimpse into his own surprising future. A vision of
the future prompts Eli to take the case of a prisoner who's
been denied parole-and happens to be a former client of
Keith's. Unfortunately, the timing couldn't be worse because
law firm partner Marci Klein (guest star Katey Sagal) is in
town to investigate why the firm's Fortune 500 clients are
leaving in droves (hint: it's Eli's fault), which could mean the
end of Jordan's reign as senior partner. Meanwhile, Matt's
efforts to win Taylor over lead to the case of two gay chimpanzees.
