Matty and Olympia seem to be working together well, despite not really being friends. At least, that’s what Matlock season 2 episode 5 told us. Now it’s time for another hour, and it looks like they’ll need to work together to protect themselves from Senior in Matlock season 2 episode 6.

Up until now, Olympia and Matty weren’t really on the same page. However, just as they had to deal with trouble from Julian, they managed to work it out and accepted that they needed to take down Senior. Of course, Senior won’t exactly want to be kicked out of his own firm, and he can probably sense when someone is after him.

It looks like he’s going to manipulate someone else into doing his bidding, which means Sarah. Of course, she looks up to Senior right now and she wants to do well at the law firm, so she’s going to do as the boss ordered.

What time is Matlock season 2 episode 6 on CBS?

The new episode will continue to take over Thursday nights. We’ll get to watch Matlock season 2 episode 6 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Thursday, Nov. 13, sandwiched between new episodes of Ghosts and Elsbeth.

You can watch CBS in many ways, including on the network’s own website. If you have YouTube TV, Fubo TV, or another platform to allow you to cut the cord, you can also check out the episode there live. And yes, even Paramount+ has live options for its top shows.

Speaking of Paramount+, this is the place to turn if you can’t watch new episodes live. You’ll be able to tune in from 3 a.m. Et/12 a.m. PT on Friday, Nov. 14.

What to expect on Matlock season 2 episode 6

The new episode will see Olympia and Matty working together on another case, but we don’t get the details of that. What we do know is that they’ll struggle to get along, and that’s not surprising considering the blow Matty received at the end of Matlock season 2 episode 5. After everything with Senior is done, Olympia doesn’t know if she wants a friendship with Matty, and we can’t really blame her.

Matty and Olympia continue to test the boundaries of their friendship while helping a group of nuns; Olympia and Sarah become roped into secretive activities within the firm.

Meanwhile, Eva is back, and she wants to take Senior down. The problem is they may not have everything they need to do that, and Matty seems worried about that. You only get one shot to take down a king, and they need to use it well.

As for the king, he needs Olympia and Sarah to work with him on some sort of top-secret investigation at the firm. Is this to weed out the leak? He likely doesn’t think Mrs. B did it all.

Matlock airs on Thursdays at 9/8c on CBS.
