The second season finale of CBS’s The Good Fight does not deviate from the show’s Trump obsession. With plots to assassinate the president and fictional Trump infidelity accusations, The Good Fight’s political agenda has never been clearer. The show announced its intentions early in the season with their impeachment episode, where the show claimed that the best way to impeach the president is to throw wildly false accusations at him until something sticks.
Earlier in the season, partner Diane Lockhart (Christine Baranski) had an affair with Tully Nelson, who asserted, “We need to assassinate the president.” Unfortunately for Diane, that conversation comes back to haunt her in Sunday’s finale, “Day 492,” (http://forums.previously.tv/topic/70551-s02e13-day-492/?do=getLastComment) as she’s subpoenaed to testify in front of a grand jury for conspiring to assassinate President Trump.
A former porn star who claims to have slept with President Trump reaches out to Diane to help her escape the conspiracy charge. She explains that it’s Trump’s people who are out to get Diane: “They know your firm’s leading the way on impeachment and the pee-pee tape. Trump’s obsessed with the pee-pee tape.”
The porn star explains to Diane that she is covered by a nondisclosure agreement and that Trump is “terrified” of her. She tells Diane to “follow the women,” to discover the “affairs, the prostitutes, the love child” of the people who are after her.
