The second episode of Boston Legal kept to the same pace and brilliance of the first. The storylines were slick and intermitant with one another, and we saw some more growth in the characters.
Alan's main storyline with his ex-girlfriend who tried to kill him was brilliantly acted and written- I didn't see the beginning sequence coming when I first saw this episode! How it affected his relationship with Sally was also entertaining, although she seems to immature to be a lawyer (at least in some ways).
I also loved Denny's storyline, and evidence that he can still hold his own in court- I loved how it affected his relationship with Brad, although I do prefer Alan and Denny as a pairing (maybe because I saw the second Season first, so am biased).
The storyline ended on a cliffhanger, which shoes that, after the Pilot, the writers and moving into a more sophisticated style of story telling.
Overall, a brilliant second episode, full of drama and suspense and crazy humour.
