Just before the “winter hiatus,” Alicia (Julianna Margulies) and Eli (Alan Cumming) had a private drink and an even more private chat – one in which he admitted, after all these years, erasing that “I love you” phone message from Alicia’s phone without ever telling her about it. She threw him out of her apartment – but not out of her life, because they’re still on the campaign trail with Peter (Chris Noth). Expect tension – and even more revelations.
