Elaine generally coordinates this effort so she can star. But we are surprised when Ling arrives and adds her high-booted leg to the chorus line. She will practice law with them, so the group also makes room for her in the dance. It is noteworthy that Ally has never been a member of this musical collaboration. More on that later.
Music expresses each character's ideal for developing a workable personal style.
In an episode aired the first season, John Cage tells Fish to listen for the bells. When those golden bells ring, the character is ready, prepared to fight in court with the best defense for the client. For Fish, the bells clunk together more often than they ring. This clunk has happened so many times, the sound effect has an additional connotation, less golden bells than brass balls. This motif fits Fish perfectly as he blatantly asserts his masculine power in a way that is never separated from sexual or monetary gains.
