I love the speech Spader delivers at the closing of this episode, in defence of the condom and attacking abstinence only programs.
Alan Shore is at his best in a lot of ways when he's fighting for the disenfranchised, for the weak against the powerful. He is a complicated and compex character who is capable - as he ably demonstrates at various times across the show's run and during the Practice - of darkness in pursuit of doing the right thing. He is ethically ambiguous, but ever now and then he is provided an opportunity to wax eloquent about a truly vital cause.
He nails this speech, as he does so many others.
