I thought this episode was very good. Two questions: if Lulu knew about Brian's affinity for prostitutes BEFORE she married him...why did she do it?? And, is Jake's fight with the college kid going to come back to haunt him? We certainly saw another side of Jake tonight.

Olsen house
Lulu is sitting near the foot of the bed in a pair of men’s pyjamas watching the news and eating some sort of crisps or chips. Brian comes in, slips behind her, and says something about “Don’t eat those, they’ll make your breath—.” Lulu cuts him off “Brian, I’m watching this.”
He continues to try to cuddle and nuzzle, but she just pushes him away and says “I’m trying to watch this” in a very cold tone. He asks, “Lulu, are we ever gonna have sex again?” She replies with something about how they hardly ever see each other with work and everything, and when they do, it would at least help if he even showed he like her. He gives up and rolls to the other side of the bed.

Yes, it was good, Jez.
Lulu doesn't say she found out about the prostitutes before they married, just that she has.
As for Jake beating up the kid, I wondered the same thing.

The camera switches to the television, where we see Alvin being put into a police van at the raid.
Back to Lulu, who, with a look of utter shock on her face, says “Oh”<br>

Barbara is online. She gets the message from the guy with whom she’s been chatting—“Go to lovelorn.com.” She does, and seeing what’s there, cries “God!”<br>
Back to the massage parlor, where the woman who runs the place is telling her daughter to go with the woman from Social Services. As she turns away, she runs after Alvin, being loaded into the van. She calls out to him “Alvin, Alvin, they’re taking Emily.”<br>
Cut to the credits.

County Jail
Alvin has called Lulu to come bail him out. Alvin apologizes to Lulu for the late hour. She tells him it’s ok, but she’s sorry about the bail, they just don’t have that kind of money right now, but she’ll have him out in the morning. He tells her it’s ok and gives her directions for the office the next day, including telling her to see about getting bail for the woman who was arrested with him, Janine Crane.

Fallin & Fallin
Nick enters the conference room where Jake is already sitting. He asks Jake if he’s heard about Alvin, and the two trade puns about the situation.
Burton enters and sits down. He explains to Jake that the partners met last night, and Jake is an income partner, but as yet has no vote. He will get that as he shows his worth to the firm. Jake thanks him, then asks the next order of business. Nick hands him a file for a dry cleaning firm, which he takes. As the scene closes, Jake makes a comment about the bad news for Masterson, hope it comes out ok, and Nick grins and chuckles.

LSoP
Lulu is at the clinic, and goes into an office to meet with Seth **, a member of the board for the clinic. He explains how happy they are to have Lulu right now, and how they (the board) feel she is just the type of person to represent the clinic right now—she’s young, married, sets a good example. When she tries to argue, he reminds her of the moral turpitude clause in Alvin’s (and her) contract, and how she has to take over right now as she was hired as the Assistant Director of the clinic.

Nick shows up at LSoP, runs into Lulu, and asks what she thinks about all of this. Lulu expresses her complete disgust with the situation, hands Nick a file, and tells him he has a shelter hearing at 10.30.

F&F
Barbara goes to see Jake. She explains to him that, under the circumstances, she cannot go to anyone at Legal Services. They go into his office, where she asks if he has his computer up. When he replies he does, she tells him to go to the site lovelorn.com. When he pulls up the site, we see Barbara’s picture with the caption next to it “Check out this fat loser who wants to get it on with me.”<br>
Barbara explains how she would get online after hours at the clinic (she doesn’t have a computer at home), and that she had met this person on a singles site. He had asked for her picture early on, but she had refused, telling him that she had been hurt before by people critical of her appearance. After they had been chatting for a few months, she relented, and had her mom take the picture, which she sent to him. Then last night when she got online to chat, he told her to go to the site.
She explains to Jake that she just wants the picture off the site. He tries to tell her they can sue for defamation of character, but she insists, she just wants the picture taken down.

Judge Damsen’s courtroom
Laurie has a little boy who is out of control—running around, yelling. She tries to catch him, to no avail. Judge Damsen wants to know what is going on with child, but Laurie has no explanation.
Nick comes in (this is his shelter hearing), just in time to have Laurie tell him to catch the child or he will be sanctioned. Nick grabs the child in his arms, and carries him over to Laurie. As he sets him down, we see something is wrong. Quick-thinking Laurie notes that the child has gone into convulsions.
