Alicia Florrick struggles to balance her new role as a law firm associate and her responsibilities as a mother in The Good Wife season 1 episode 3, "Home."

The episode opens with a flashback to the day that Alicia's husband, Peter Florrick, was arrested for corruption and solicitation. As Alicia waits for news on her husband's bail, she reflects on their hectic life before the scandal broke. When Peter is released on bail, he surprises Alicia by announcing that he will be staying with his mother instead of returning home with his family.

Meanwhile, at the law firm, Alicia is struggling to adjust to the demanding hours and high-pressure environment. She is assigned to work on a case involving a woman named Celeste Serano, who is suing a pharmaceutical company for damages related to a birth control pill that caused her to have a stroke. Alicia is initially hesitant to take on the case because it falls outside of her area of expertise, but her colleague, Cary Agos, convinces her to give it a try.

As Alicia begins to gather evidence for the case, she discovers that the pharmaceutical company has been hiding evidence that the birth control pill in question was defective. She presents her findings to the firm's partners, but they are hesitant to move forward with the case because of the potential financial risks.

At the same time, Alicia's daughter, Grace, is struggling with her own issues at school. She has been tasked with creating a family tree for a school assignment, but she is unsure of how to represent her father, who is currently living with his mother. When Alicia tries to help her daughter, they end up having a heart-to-heart conversation about the state of their family.

In the end, Alicia decides to go ahead with the Celeste Serano case despite the potential risks. She and her colleagues work tirelessly to prepare for trial, and Alicia finds herself becoming more confident in her abilities as a lawyer. The episode ends with Alicia returning home to her empty apartment, where she reflects on the day's events and the challenges that lie ahead.

Overall, "Home" is a powerful episode that highlights the challenges faced by Alicia Florrick as she tries to rebuild her life and career in the wake of her husband's scandal. The episode is anchored by compelling performances from Julianna Margulies as Alicia, and Chris Noth as Peter, who is struggling to come to terms with his new reality. With its complex characters and nuanced storytelling, The Good Wife continues to be one of the most engaging dramas on television.
