After the arrival of the new legal interns, Tegan and Blake gather all of the interns in the center of the room. Once gathered around, Blake informs the interns about the Hell Bowl, a tradition that the partners arrange at Caplan & Gold; where the interns go head-to-head until they are left with just four interns. Those interns will then go head-to-head and the final intern will win the tournament. The prize is a massive bottle of champagne and the option to choose which partner that they want to work under. At the end of the first round, Michaela, Simon and two other interns make it to the final four. The tournament then takes a break for a little while. Back at the tournament, Michaela wins again and is faced against Simon. Simon answers wrong but Michaela answers correctly and wins the tournament. As it is her choice of which partner to work with, she chooses Tegan. ("It's for the Greater Good")
While working, Jorge Castillo called a meeting with the partners of Caplan & Gold for his company, Antares Technologies. Blake waited for Tegan at the elevator; once she arrived with her intern, Michaela Pratt, the two tossed ideas about what Jorge could want with them. Tegan then told Michaela that she wasn't allowed in the meeting and that she should catch up on some work. While in the meeting Jorge explained that he was to take Antares public, thus opening up the company to a whole lot of money. After, the partners realize that they will also get a lot of money with the deal. ("Stay Strong, Mama")
