Autistic doctor Shaun Murphy (Freddie Highmore) finds a kindred spirit in Jodi DeGroot (Nancy Drew’s Kennedy McMann), a gifted lawyer who is sidelined from meeting with clients at her firm because of her obsessive-compulsive disorder. In an episode intended as a backdoor pilot for a projected The Good Lawyer series, Shaun insists to Jodi’s boss, Janet Stewart (Desperate Housewives alum Felicity Huffman, making her ABC comeback after the school admissions scandal), that Jodi represent him at a malpractice trial, which would be her first time in court. Bolstered by Shaun’s confidence, Jodi learns to step up, even if a squeaky chair threatens to throw her off her game. “I’m not wanted in a lot of places,” she tells Janet. “If I let that stop me, I wouldn’t be anywhere.” Time will tell if Jodi finds a spot-on ABC’s schedule next season
