Previously on "Suits"...

I had a nightmare last night

that we made Louis
Managing Partner.

I couldn't get back
to sleep till dawn.

That wasn't a nightmare
and you know it.

I cannot let my clients down.
It's just not in me.

Louis, I just found us
a new managing partner.

I think I can handle
finding Thomas Kessler

a new general counsel.

Now, the better question is,

can you handle this job
that you agreed to take?

I was just thinking about
where we were a week ago

when I thought you were cold
and heartless

and I went from that
to being your best friend.

What's going on with you
and Brian?

Donna, he's married.
I would never do--

I know, but I also know
that the heart doesn't always

listen to what the brain says
it would never do.

Finding you
the right general counsel

isn't just about
knowing your business.

No, it's about chemistry.

- Yes, it is.
- How do you know my type?

Life is going to put
that special someone right

in front of you
and when it happens,

I know you'll be ready.

Truth is,
I am running this place

and we all need to get on
board with that

and it starts
with you reading me in.

Have dinner with me.

Thomas, I'm flattered
but you're a client and--

I'm gonna give you
a bit of time

and if you still feel
the same way

then I promise
I will never ask again.

Fair?

Fair.

[elevator dings]

Well?

Well what?

Are you gonna say yes
to your mystery man?

What are you talking about?

You think we didn't
all catch you

looking at your phone
all night?

Those were work texts.

Work tests don't use emojize.

- It's emojis.
- Don't change the subject.

The point is you got a man
who wants to go out with you.

Gretchen,
it's not just any man.

It's Thomas Kessler.

Well, if you think
Louis would object

because he's a client--
- No, it's not just that--

Well, what is it?

Because you clearly like him
so what's stopping you

from going out on a simple date

and maybe getting
your freak on.

[funky music]

Nothing, Gretchen.

Absolutely freaking nothing.

[chuckling]

♪ ♪

Harvey, can I talk
to you a second?

Sure, Louis,
what's on your mind?

Well...

I wanted to say,
I shouldn't have yelled

at you and Robert about Malik.

I should have heard you
when you came to me

and let you know
how I was feeling.

It's okay, Louis,

I should have made
you listen to me

like Robert said
in the first place.

Well, I've been thinking.

I'm trying to be
the best leader I can

and a good leader inspires
people to do what they do best,

and what you do best,
Harvey, is close.

Can't argue with you there.

So what do you say you go out
and land a big whale for us?

I get it.

You're a new captain, you want
to make a new statement.

I want us to make
a new statement.

Well, in that case,
I did hear that Steven Palmer

is looking for
new representation.

Well, you get that harpoon
sharpened

because I'll be expecting
a nice piece of scrimshaw

by the end of the week,
matey.

- The hell is scrimshaw?
- Carved whale bone.

What the hell's
matter with you?

Where'd you get your education?

Not in the 1800s,
I can tell you that.

Well, for your information,

scrimshaw dates back
to the mid-1700s--

And if you finish
that sentence,

there's no way I'm going
after Palmer.

Consider the sentence
unfinished.

- Louis.
- Yeah.

It takes a big man to come
in here and say all that.

I appreciate that

and I'll get you your whale.

Chips ahoy, Harvey.

[soft music]

One decaf chai tea,
three sugars.

Brian, you're my associate,
not my assistant.

You don't have to bring me
my preferred beverage

when I ask to see you
in my office.

Oh, I can give it to Louis,
if you don't want it.

Gimme that,

and it just so happens
I have something for you too.

Katrina, I don't really
wear women's--

Chelsea Conner's Adored.

As in, Chelsea Conner
the makeup and fragrance giant.

Don't tell me, they're
looking for representation.

They reached out to me
this morning.

Apparently they heard about
our Hi-Rise Fashion victory

and now Chelsea wants us to go
after a rival company

who's copying
their flagship fragrance.

Brian, I think I might have
found my partner specialty.

Consumer goods.

It's not as sexy
or exciting as tax law,

but let's face it,
what is?

You don't get out much,
do you?

You know what I mean.

I do.

What do you need me to do?

Find out everything there is
to know about our product

and theirs and figure out a way
to shut them down.

Consider it done.

And hey, for the record,

this is your victory
as much as mine.

Thanks, Katrina.

♪ ♪

It's got pretty good speed,

for something
that runs on plants.

Uh, that particular vehicle
runs on 91 unleaded.

But you're gonna make one
like it that doesn't

because you're more interested
in changing the world

than you are in making money.

For a guy I've never met,

you know a lot about
my business.

I make it my business to know
a lot about my clients,

Harvey Specter.

And I take it you heard
I'm on the market.

What I've heard is you're
looking for a guy

to kill it for you.

And you think
you're that guy.

I know I am.

People said you were cocky.

People said I was confident
and I am,

but only because
I can back it up.

But I'm afraid you, uh,
wasted your trip,

because I'm not
signing with you.

- Why not?
- You have a reputation.

My reputation is being the
best closer in the city,

which is exactly why
you should sign with me.

It's also that you never do
what you're told,

and I may consider myself
a maverick,

but I don't want
my lawyer to be one.

- Steven--
- Harvey, I just said no

and the reason is
that you don't listen.

So if you even want a shot at
my business,

your best chance at changing
my mind

would be to turn around
and let me be.

[car engine running]

What do you say to that?

Hell of a car, Steven.

Hell of a car.

- Hello.
- Yes.

The answer is yes.

Uh, yes to what?

Yes to the question
that you asked me.

I'm sorry, you're going
to have to forgive me,

but, um,
which question was that

because I'm a very,
uh, curious person.

I ask a lot of questions.

Okay, I get it.

You want to hear me
say the words.

Yes, I will go out with you.

I might have.

Well, I just did.

Good, in that case,

the answer to your question
is also yes.

I didn't ask you a question.

But you were going to ask if
I made reservations,

and yes,
I already made some.

How could you know that?

Well, one, I'm an optimist

and, two, I know you've spent
your entire career

making plans for other people

and I thought you might
appreciate

someone making plans for you.

Yeah, I would.

Here's what I want you
to do.

Be ready for me to pick
you up tomorrow night at 7:00,

wear something stunning and,
um, hope to God I show up.

Done.

And Thomas, why did you want
to hear me say it?

Because I may be an optimist
but it's still nice to hear.

I'll see you tomorrow night
then.

And then he tries
to tell me he was right.

The man shows up 30 minutes
late to our date

and I'm hearing some bullshit
about Johnson v. Florida.

He didn't.

Hey, that's what she gets
for dating a law student.

Uh, no, I was also
a law student

and somehow I still managed to
communicate like a human being.

Well, I believe
my skills have gotten

a lot better since then.
- Oh, really?

How are his "I'm-sorry's"
and "you-were-right-honey's"?

- How do you think they are?
- You know,

I'm starting to think
this lunch was a bad idea.

To be honest,

I was surprised you suggested
it in the first place.

Well, the truth is Alex
didn't suggest it, I did.

Well, now I'm curious.

Rosalie figured
we'd just been through a war

and what better way to start
fresh than by breaking bread

and I figured,
you've already met Joy

and this couldn't go
any worse.

Though, clearly,
I was wrong.

Well,
there is another reason

I wanted to sit down
and have lunch.

After I had my babies,
I left my law firm

and I wanted to raise them,

but they are older now and it's
time to get back in the game.

Wait a second,
is this about your case?

It is.

I've got dozens
of graduates that went to

a worthless university,

they got a worthless degree
and now they're in debt.

And you've been thinking
you could use

a little help with it.
- Yes, Yes I could.

Rosalie,
we didn't talk about--

Quiet, Alex,
your wife and I are talking.

What kind of help do you need?

Robert Zane, just the man
I was looking to see.

Whatever it is, Louis,
I have a tee time in an hour.

Well, that's okay,
this won't take long.

What are those?
My walking papers?

Rigoletto tickets,
best in the house.

I know Laura's a fan.

I wish these were
my walking papers.

Oh, sorry,
I didn't mean to--

I'm just kidding, Louis,
this is a wonderful gesture.

Do you mind if I ask
what it's for?

I know that it couldn't
have been easy for you

stepping down for me,
so I just wanted to show you

how much I appreciate it.

Thank you, Louis,
means a lot.

Louis, Gretchen texted
that you wanted to see me.

Yeah, I wanted to see
how it went with Steven Palmer.

How do you think it went?
I got him on the one yard line.

Harvey, English, please.
You know I don't know baseball.

In that case,
the fat lady's singing.

That's music to my ears.

Should I lob a call
to get her to wrap it up?

- Not necessary, Louis.
- I got it.

You're all over it,
I won't push.

Robert, enjoy the tix.
Gentlemen.

Fat lady singing my ass.

Excuse me?

The only one yard line
you're on is your own.

How do you know that?

Because it's a lot easier
to tell someone's lying

when they're lying
to someone else.

Well, for your information,
I'm not really lying

because it doesn't matter
what yard line,

I'm landing this guy.

Boy, I am glad I'm not
managing you anymore

because that is some prime cut
Harvey Specter bullshit.

- Yeah.
- Speaking of fat ladies,

you want these opera tickets?

'Cause there's no way
I'm letting Laura drag me

to another four hour
snooze fest.

- I don't really.
- That's a good man.

[soft music]

I have to say,
I really think you married up.

[scoffing] I've been saying
that for years,

but right now,
I need to say something else.

I don't want you taking
that case with Rosalie.

Yeah, I think you made
that pretty clear at lunch.

The question is, why not?

You want me to list
all the hundred reasons?

Come on, Alex,
Rosalie said it herself.

We just went to war,

and I know you know what
happened

between me and Katrina.

We need something
to bring us together.

Then let's have
a bake sale,

because there's a reason
she and I don't mix work

and our relationship.

Alex, I already told her
I would help

and I am not going to break
my word to your wife.

Then I want to be clear right
now.

I don't care what happens,
you leave me out of it

because you're two strong
women who have strong opinions

about anything you've
ever thought

and I don't want to be caught
in the middle of it.

Well,
I can't speak for Rosalie,

but as far as I am concerned,

you will never hear one word
about this case from me.

♪ ♪

Linda Janowitz,
I'm Katrina Bennett,

this is Brian Altman.

We're here on behalf
of Chelsea Conner.

In that case, this
should be a short meeting.

If you prefer a long court
fight, that can be arranged.

Actually, it's been arranged.

You're trying
to shut me down?

This is a joke.

Oh, I don't think
you'll be laughing

when a court orders you
to close your doors

and burn your product.

And why would they do that?

Because,
as you're well aware,

there's a 97% overlap

between the packaging
of your product and Adored.

It's not because we're
copying your product

and we can prove it.

- Bullshit.
- Is it?

We market-tested every aspect
of our packaging

and based on all our focus
groups,

the color that women found
most appealing was red.

They also responded to cursive
lettering and gold foil trim,

so that's what we gave them.

What you gave them is
a carbon copy

of my client's flagship
product.

And as for focus groups,
the best one I know is a jury.

So, pull your product
from the shelves,

repackage with a new name, and
that lawsuit never gets filed.

Except for one thing.

There's no way you prove our
product is a knock-off of yours

when, among other things, they
smell completely different,

which anyone who takes
one whiff of them can tell.

[cell phone vibrating]

- Hello.
- Steven.

Louis Litt
of Zane Specter Litt.

Uh, is now a good time?

You must have gotten
your wires crossed, Louis.

Your firm already paid me
a visit today.

I know that, I know Harvey
has you well in hand.

I just want to tell you how
much we value your business.

Value my business?
You don't have my business.

Right, well, I--I know
it's not official yet. I just--

Okay, let me tell you
what I told Harvey,

I am not interested
in your firm representing me.

I see.

Do you mind if I ask why not?

I'll tell you
what I told him,

he has a reputation
for not doing what he's told.

Well, I certainly can't argue
with that,

but I do not have
that reputation

and I have just
become Managing Partner.

If you just give me a chance
to sit down with you--

You want a chance to sit down
with me?

I'm having a charity poker
event tonight.

Well, in that case, I'll--

Before you answer,
it'll cost you $100,000.

So if you're willing to part
with that amount of money,

I'll see you there
but I have to tell you,

if you can't tell when
Harvey Specter's playing you,

I'm not sure
it'll be worth your time.

♪ ♪

Anything?

I've been thinking about it
all afternoon.

Without proof they're lying,

we have no way
to make our case.

Shit.

Katrina,
we can still back out.

No. We back out now,

Chelsea's brand is
going to mean nothing,

not to mention the fact my
specialty goes out the window.

So what are we going to do?

We have no choice, we have
to try to get Linda Janowitz

to break in a deposition.

Which isn't going to be easy,
because we have no evidence.

Wait a second, maybe we do.

What do you mean?

They lied about
the packaging.

What's to say they aren't lying
about the perfumes themselves.

Oh, my God, you're right.

They might smell
exactly alike.

I can't tell if they smell
the same or different.

That's because you're
smelling them wrong.

Here.

We're gonna have to drop

but I've been on the
Hardwick team for six months

and tonight is
the final doc review.

Well, there are
other people on that team.

I--I don't have anyone else.

What does that mean?

It means I'm going
to get you out of it.

I've got to say,

this is an impressive operation
you got your name on.

Well, there's a reason
Alex and I went to war,

but I can't believe this is
the first time

you're seeing the offices.

It's not.

It's just the first time I'm
looking at it through new eyes.

Ah, and what kind
of eyes are those?

The kind that are looking
to intimidate.

I'm listening.

I've got a bunch of victims

who were promised
the moon and the stars,

a job placement
rate close to zero

and an administration

that claims those promises
were never made.

So in other words,
they're lying.

Yes, but I need
an office like this

and a partner like you to get
him to admit what he knows.

And then?

Because even if he breaks
at deposition,

we can only commit
so much manpower.

I'm not looking
to go to trial.

I'm looking to close
in the room.

And how exactly
are you gonna do that?

I was thinking something
like this.

[chuckling]

Well, I just like you
more and more.

Let's get something
on the books

because these clowns are not
going to know what hit 'em.

Katrina, if you're here to
suggest

that we go out for
drinks again,

I would love to but
it just so happens that I--

That's not why I'm here,
Donna.

I need you to clear Brian's
schedule tonight

and before you say anything--

Okay, I'll take care of it.
He's all yours.

That's it?

You're not going to tell me
that he's been working on

the Hardwick case
for six months

and you can't just
pull him off now?

No, why would I
tell you that?

And why do you look like you
want me to tell you that?

Katrina, what's going on?

Brian and I had a moment.

A moment-moment?

Yes, Donna,

a moment-moment.

Okay, I--I don't want this
to come off wrong,

but did you share a moment

or did just you have a moment?

We had a moment, Donna,

and nothing happened
but it was 100% a moment.

But I need his help
on this case, Donna,

he's my associate,

I can't just hide from him
the rest of my life.

Are you sure you know
what you're doing?

No, I'm not.

Then I just have
one piece of advice.

If you don't want
to eat a cookie,

stay out of the kitchen.

[suspenseful music]

- Louis.
- Hey, how's it going?

Nice weather we're having.

You mind telling me why
you lied about Steven Palmer?

- Listen to me--
- No, I talked to him, Harvey.

So before you lie to me again--

I didn't lie to you.
I told you I had him and I do.

Then why did he tell me he
wants nothing to do with you?

Because that's what all
the girls say, Louis.

And that's exactly what
he's talking about,

you don't listen.

- I don't what?
- You heard me.

You didn't listen.
- I was sure listening

when you said you weren't
going to call him.

I said I wasn't going to
push and I didn't.

What I did was determine
that I can't trust you

and now I'm taking over.

The hell you are!

I heard him loud and clear.

He wanted me to show him
that I respect him

and that's exactly what
I'm going to do tonight.

Oh, that's right.
I know, at his poker game.

Well, there's a change
of plans, Harvey,

because Zane Specter Litt is
still going to that game,

but Litt's going to be
the one at the table.

You go to that game,

all you're going to do
is show Palmer

that you don't know shit
about poker.

And you go there,
all you're going to do is prove

is all care about is yourself.

So why don't you
prove us both wrong

and do what you're told
for a change

and back the hell off
my client.

I'm not backing off anything.

There's no negotiation,

you stay away from

are no longer needed.

to a client, I keep it.

Uh, potential client
but I'll tell you what,

if you can take
my money tonight,

you'll be that much
closer to signing me.

Why don't we just have
a seat?

Don't mind if I do.

Harvey,
what are you doing here?

Well, I was in the
neighborhood,

I had an extra hundred thou
burning a hole in my pocket

why not show you gentlemen
how to play some cards.

Whoa, whoa, whoa,
not so fast, Steven.

I just happen to have
a few queens

reigning over a couple tens.

That's bullshit.

You beat me on the river.

Well, be that as it may,

you had a 4% chance
of having a flush.

The pot odds were in my favor.

River or not,
I made the right call.

I made the right call.

Look, I need a drink.

Louis, can I talk to you
for a second?

About what?

The fact that I'm beating your
ass in a game

you didn't even think
I knew how to play?

You don't know how
to play it, Louis.

Poker's about playing the man

and guys like Palmer
don't like to lose.

Oh, please. You don't give
a shit about Palmer.

You're just mad I beat you.

Beat me?
I just had four of a kind.

But I laid it down, like I've
been laying down all night,

because I'm trying
to let him win.

Bullshit,
you don't let anybody win.

I do when I need them
to know I can bend a knee.

Well, then why the hell
didn't you bend a knee to me

by not coming here
like I asked?

You didn't ask, you ordered.

What you asked was for me
to close this guy

because I'm better
at it than you.

Let me get this straight.

You were going to throw a game
he didn't know you threw

just to prove you
can bend a knee?

He'd know it in his heart
and he'd appreciate it.

I say it out loud,
it humiliates him

like you're doing.

No, Harvey, the person I'm
humiliating is you

because I am closing
the client, taking your money,

and you can't stand me
doing either one.

If that's what you think,
then let's get it on.

Because as of this minute,

I don't give a shit
if we land this guy or not.

[tense music]

Hey, how'd it go today?

I thought you said you didn't
want to be involved.

I said I don't want
to be involved,

I didn't say I don't care.

In that case, it went well.
She's good, Alex.

- I know she is.
- Then I have to ask,

why don't you want
to work with her?

All right, the truth,

Rosalie thinks I think
I'm a better lawyer than her.

Do you?

I wouldn't have married her
if I thought that.

Then why does she think it?

We did work together once
back in law school.

- Mock trial?
- Pro Bono.

Something we both cared about.

The case hit a roadblock and
Rosalie suggested one strategy,

I suggested a different one.

We ended up getting in
a huge fight,

actually broke us up
for a while.

But you got back together.

Because we loved each other,

but we also knew if that kind
of thing happened once...

There's a chance
it could happen again.

Which is why I'm asking
you how it went

instead of asking her.

Well, if it makes
you feel any better,

I'd say your marriage is
in good hands.

Okay, Harvey,
it's just you and me now.

To tell you the truth,
Louis,

I'm impressed that
you lasted this long.

So why don't you take
your participation trophy

and go home.

The only thing I'll be going
home with tonight

is your money.

You two always fight
like this?

Think of it this way, Steven.

If I fight like this
at the table,

imagine how I fight
in a courtroom.

Oh Steven, please,
don't listen to him.

The only thing Harvey fights
hardest for is himself.

Raise 50,000.
[chips clinking]

50 isn't enough.
I'm all in.

Now, Louis, before you decide
how to play the hand

that could clean you out,

I want you to think
of our entire history

of me always winning
and you always losing

and when you finish
doing that,

you'll realize it doesn't
really matter what you do,

because whatever it is,

it's going to be
the wrong decision.

Why does anyone
go to college?

To make their lives better.

And you promised their lives
will be better by using lies.

We help our students invest
in their future.

By taking on a mountain
of debt and loans,

which your college
profits from

and you profit from personally.

- That is not true.
- Isn't it?

Half your pay is tied

That doesn't mean that

why did you conduct

You were reshaping them.

Making changes based on

You mean deliberate changes

I already explained this,

We all know

We didn't break any rules.

people wanted something
they didn't mean to want,
