Louis: I'm talking about the
both of us convincing hardman

that two kick-ass
junior partners are worth

as much as one
new senior partner.

You had the chance
to triple our business

and all you had to do
was take a knee.

Tell me right now
you weren't the one

that gave Fletcher engines
my game plan.

Hardman told me he wasn't
going to make you partner anyway.

And once he offered it to me,
all I had to do was...

Sell me out.

Mike's pro bono is
against some prison.

And guess who builds those
prisons. I gave him my word.

And you once gave your word
to me and went back on it.

I had to lie to Harvey's face.

You either go
and work at the clinic

or you stay at Pearson specter.

But you can't play them both
for fools and put me in the middle.

I have a binding agreement
signed by his legal clinic

stating they would
have no outside help

from Pearson specter litt
on this case.

Yet they did.

You convinced me
the only way to heal

was to keep this from
happening to someone else.

And now, I have nothing.

This isn'tjust about you
protecting your client's interests.

It's about you
protecting yourself.

Why don't you tell me
what's really going on here?

That's it.

They've had me
by the balls ever since.

Jesus. How did you let yourself
get compromised like that?

This is my situation, Harvey.

No, this is
the firm's situation,

and we need to cut ties with
those bastards right the hell now.

I don't believe this. You're
pulling rank after I open up to you?

That's bullshit. No, Alex.

What's bullshit is
you letting yourself

be put in that position
for the last five years.

"Letting?" yeah, letting.

And now, I got to get us out
because you did this to me.

Well, as long as we're
throwing blame around, Harvey,

I didn't do shit to you.

You did this to me.

Allin.

Not this time, brother.
I got you.

Bullshit, you got me.

Uh-huh. I know how you play.

You checked to open,
you gotjack-10 at best.

This is a bluff. I'm calling.

Do what you have to do.

Kings over sevens, motherfucker.

Trip sevens, little man.

Maybe you don't know
how I play after all.

Uh-uh.

You're on tilt.
You been on tilt all night.

That was a stupid play and you
know it. What's going on with you?

I was supposed
to make partner today,

but Louis litt screwed me over.

So, there,
that's why I'm pissed.

Shit. I didn't know.

Well, now, you do.

I don't understand, Harvey.

I thought you were Jessica
Pearson's guy over there.

I thought so, too.
But she didn't have my back.

Well, what if I had your back?

What are you talking about?

I heard Tommy Bratton talking.
They're looking to bring someone in.

You say the word, I bet I
can get you in as partner.

What's in it for you?

Bratton's about to make an offer

to some big-time
earner at skadden.

I say you and me go in there
and tell him two junior partners

are a hell of a lot better
than one senior partner.

Pass. Come on, Harvey.
At least think about it.

I don't need to think about it.

I just went through
the same thing

and the guy who proposed it
ended up stabbing me in the back.

I wouldn't do that to you.

Yeah, well,
I appreciate your offer,

but I'm not going to give you
the opportunity.

Now.

You need me to stake you?
There's 300.

Hey. Hey.

I heard about
what happened in court.

I know you gave up the case,
Mike. I'm sorry.

Rachel, I gave the case up,

because you reminded me
to be a man of my word.

But, like I said, I gave my
word to Oscar reyes first.

What does that mean? It means
that I don't want to lie to you.

And I don't want to lie
to Harvey, but...

I'm going to get this case
opened in criminal court.

And for the record,
that does not violate

the agreement that I signed.

So, you're going
to tell Harvey, right?

If he asks me, I'll tell him.
But I'm not going to volunteer it.

And I need to know if
you're good with that. Mike.

Before you answer, I want
you to think about the fact

that these guys
are extending sentences.

What if it were me in there and it
was my sentence that got extended?

I just have one question.

What if Harvey asks me about it?

Then you tell him the truth.

Then, yeah. I'm good with it.

See the money,
wanna stay for your meal

get another piece of pie
for your wife

everybody wanna know how it feel

everybody wanna see
what it's like

I'll even eat a bean pie
I don't mind

me and missy is so early

busy, busy making money

all right!

All step back I'm 'bout to dance

the greenback boogie

What's this?

I never thanked you
for allowing me into the bar.

And I figured you'd prefer

a criminal case
to a fruit basket.

This is a civil case.

It was a civil case.

But it doesn't have to be.

That doesn't sound
like a gift to me.

It sounds like a favor for you.

Anita, you said you were
about doing what's right.

People are being kept in
prison for money. That's not right.

If that's true,

I wish there was something I
could do about it, but I can't.

What do you mean, you
can't? You know what I mean.

Nobody wants to see me
spending my time

getting bad guys out of prison.

And what if I told you
it was a criminal conspiracy

between two
fortune 500 companies?

What are you talking about?

I couldn't pursue the case,

because we represent
another client

who has pressured me to drop it.

And there's no way they did
that just to protect reform corp.

Which means they're in on it.

Do you have any proof?
No. But...

You bring me some
proof of a conspiracy

and I'll pursue it.
That's the best I can do.

Anita, I don't have
the resources to be...

Not my problem.

And another thing.

Whatever you do
bring me has to be

on the reform corp
side of the arrangement.

Because if it isn't, you're breaking
privilege and I can't use any of it.

Harvey.

There's something
I want to tell you.

But I need to know ifyou're over

what happened with Louis
and the promotion.

Good. I'm fine, Donna.

Because I need to leave
work early tomorrow night.

What for?

It's my six-month
anniversary with Mark.

What's that face? Nothing.

I guess I just didn't think
you were one of those people.

What people?

The people that celebrate their
niece's third-grade graduation

like it was the moon landing.

And when was the last time

you saw anyone seriously
for six months?

I'm not the topic
of this conversation.

How could you be?

Because we're talking about a
mature and committed relationship.

You're right, Donna,
we are. Which is why...

I got you a gift
to celebrate your anniversary.

Harvey.

This is very generous, but
I can't accept it. Why not?

Because Mark planned
a special night for us.

And how's he going to feel when I
pull out a gift card to help pay for it?

That wasn't the idea. I know.

But if you really want
to give me a gift,

promise you won't call or
interrupt me the entire night.

I promise. Thanks, Harvey.

God damn it, Jeffrey, this is a
place of business, not a petting zoo.

So, you either flush the
goldfish or you're fired.

You don't have
the authority to do that.

Section 207, paragraph
three of the by-laws.

Insubordination to a partner
results in termination.

This has nothing to do
with my fish and you know it.

It's got everything
to do with that fish

and I don't want to hear
another word about it.

So, unless you want to say

Can I talk to you for a second?

Hey, Jessica, we're just
in the middle of... now.

Yes? What the hell do
you think you're doing?

I'm exercising my authority as
junior partner over that douche.

By trying to kill his fish?

No, by trying to keep
order in the bullpen.

Jessica, Jeffrey's
work habits are not...

Jeffrey: It's because I
didn't call him junior partner.

Shut up. This has nothing
to do with about how I feel

about his stupid,
disrespectful, asshole fish.

Louis.

Have you considered therapy?
Why would I do that?

That would be like baryshnikov
taking dance lessons.

Louis. Jessica,
shrinks are for pussies.

Now, can I go back
to yelling at Jeffrey?

Because these associates
need guidance and discipline.

Listen to me, Louis.

I stayed out of that whole
thing between you and Harvey

because that was Daniel's call.

And you want to go off on
the associates, that's one thing.

But you let this promotion go to your
head and you take it out on Harvey,

I'm going to step
the hell back in.

Jessica, you have my word
as junior partner.

If there's any problem with
Harvey, it won't be because of me.

I'm a little busy right now.

Well, whatever it is,
put it to the side.

Daniel wants you to work with
Louis on the reinsdorf case.

You got something to say,
Harvey, say it.

Okay, I'll say it.

You didn't have my back
when hardman screwed me over.

And now,
you're carrying his water

while he tries to humiliate me.

I don't care what he's doing.

I care about what I'm doing.

Which is to see
if you can put that

ego of yours aside
and play the long game.

What the hell
are you talking about?

Do you have any idea how many
times I had to smile and take it

when Charles Van dyke
pawned his work off on me?

Or when Stanley Gordon
would call me into his office

just so he could
ogle my ass when I left.

That is not the same thing.

Not to mention
when schmidt would talk

about "the blacks"
like he was living in 1950.

I sucked it up
for years, Harvey.

Now, it's your turn.

What if I won't?
Then you're not my guy.

Because if you can't even pretend
to bend a knee to your rivals,

it doesn't matter what you do to
get ahead of them in the future.

They're going to see
you coming a mile away.

Mr. Kreuger,
I appreciate you meeting me.

This isn't downton Abbey,
Harvey, it's a construction firm.

Call me pat or see yourself
out. Fair enough, pat.

I'm sure you know that a junior
partner at our firm broke his word.

I think you're owed an apology.

Usually the clients pay the
lawyers, not the other way around.

This is a unique situation.

This looks a lot like
you're trying to pay me off.

I'm trying to make things
right and allow you to move on.

You want to know how to get
someone's best effort, Harvey?

It's not paying them
the most money.

It's making sure that their
interests are aligned with yours.

And Alex Williams wants this
case to go away as much as I do.

You don't need your interests
aligned anymore.

This case is over.

Maybe it is.

And maybe it isn't.

But I've heard that
from your firm once before.

And then, I believe
it was your own associate

who opened the case again
in the first place.

So, you see,
Harvey, it's not just

Alex's interests that
are aligned with mine.

It's yours.

And I plan to keep it that way.

Let me guess. You're here
to go over my testimony.

I already told you
I'm not giving you

anything until
my daughter gets paid.

That's not what
I'm here for, frank.

I need to know
if you know anything

about a conspiracy
outside of reform corp.

Conspiracy outside of...
What are you talking about?

What the hell's going on here?

We got thrown off the case.

What did you
justsaytorne? Frank.

'Cause you came in here
promising my daughter a future.

Now you're telling me
it's all a bunch of shit.

It's not a bunch of shit.

And I can get the case reopened,

but I need evidence of a conspiracy
with Masterson construction.

Then I can't help you.

Because all I know is those are
the guys that put us all to work.

Work? What are you
talking about?

Those places
aren't like danbury.

We work our asses off
to build their prisons

so they can put more of us away.

But if you're looking for
a conspiracy, there's not.

They do it all out in the
open. Call it rehabilitation.

Well, it may not have been
hidden. But something is.

And I think you just pointed
me in the right direction.

What the hell did you do?
What are you talking about?

You went to Masterson
behind my back.

I did what I told you
I was going to do.

I got you into this mess.
I'm going to get you out.

And all going to Masterson does

is put you in their crosshairs.

I'm already in their crosshairs.

And now that I know
what happened,

I might as well have been
a part of it myself.

Then maybe instead
of poking the bear,

we should tell
Mike Ross the truth.

What are you talking about?

We both know that Mike is
not going to let this thing go

until he gets
to the bottom of it.

Maybe if I just come
clean... listen to me, Alex.

You go to him with your story,

you're going to give him a map
to what happened, a can of gas,

and a match to light the
whole damn thing on fire.

I hope you're right, Harvey.

Because I've got a daughter.

And if I didn't take the chance

to stop this thing
when I had it...

I'm telling you, Alex,
he'll let it go.

Harvey. Louis.

Jessica said hardman wants us to
work on the reinsdorf case together.

She said the same thing to me.

Well, I'm here to help.
Not get in a fight.

Good. My feelings exactly.

I thought we could start
by talking strategy.

I'm sorry,
but are you first chair?

No. You are.
But I just thought that...

It doesn't matter
what you thought.

Because our strategy is to
go after their general counsel.

And when would you
like to depose this guy?

Never. Because I'm going to
put that asshole on the stand

and I'm going to crack him like
a piece of matzo on passover.

Louis, you put him on the
stand without deposing him,

you'll be asking questions
you don't know the answers to.

So what? So, that's the
number one rule of iawyering.

Well, thank you, f. Lee Bailey.

And here I thought
the number-one rule

was to know your goddamn place.

And I don't need to take advice
from a sixth-year associate.

And I don't need to take
a loss on my record,

because you're too insecure
to listen to reason.

You know what, Harvey?
You don't need to take anything.

Because you're not in charge.

So, it's up to you.

You going to get on board or
you going to go crying to mama?

You're right, Louis.

You're the partner.
I'm just here to back you up.

Donna, I want you to pull
whatever strings you have to

to get the reinsdorf trial
moved up to tomorrow.

I'll get right on it.

And one more thing.
Don't tell Louis.

What?

Harvey, Jessica said to Bury the
hatchet, not stick it in Louis' back.

Donna, iwent into
his office in good faith,

and it took him less than 30
seconds to wave his title in my face.

What does that have to do with putting
the firm's interests above your ego?

Because when I brought up a
legitimate issue with his strategy,

he shot me down with no other
reason than it came out of my mouth.

I'm telling you, we don't
do this, we're going to lose.

Look at me.

Are you sure this is the
right call? Listen to me.

Jessica wants me to play the long
game, and that's what I'm doing.

I sat in there,
ate shit, and he bought it.

So, now, tomorrow,
I'm going to win this thing

and Jessica's going to
know she can count on me.

All right.

I'll move the court date.

And I'll make sure
Louis doesn't find out.

Harvey, good. You're here.

We didn't get
a chance to talk about

what happened with you,
Alex and Mike.

No, we didn't. And as a matter of
fact, I'm wondering where Mike is.

Well, he was in earlier,
but then he left.

But I'm guessing that's not
really the question you're asking.

You want to know if he's
somehow still pursuing that case.

And what if I do?

I would say
from personal experience,

don't ask a question unless you're
really ready to hear the answer.

What the hell
do you think you're doing?

Jessica, how did you know?
It doesn't matter how.

What matters is I told you
to work it out with Louis.

And right now,
he's sitting in his office

with no idea
this case is starting.

Exactly. I'm playing the
long game, like you said.

No, Harvey,
you're not playing anything.

Because this case is mine now.

You heard me. What?

I gave you a direct order
and you spat in my face.

Jessica, this is bullshit.

I went in there
and he spat in my face.

And I was willing to take it.

Butwhat I'm not willing to take

is losing this thing
out of spite.

And if you take this case
right now, you're going to lose,

because you have no
idea what's going on with it.

Maybe I will and maybe I won't.

But sometimes, you have
to bench your quarterback

to show him
who's running the team,

whether you take a loss or not.

Bailiff: All rise.

Jessica: Time's up, Harvey.
Step aside.

Jessica, please don't
do this to me in public.

I'm not doing anything to you.

You did this to yourself.

Do we have a problem, counselor?

No, your honor, we don't.

My colleague is needed
back at our firm. I'm stepping in.

Judge: In that case,
be seated, everyone.

Court is now in session.

Michael, why are you
closing the door?

You know I'm uncomfortable
with obstructed exits.

Because I need
to ask you something

and I don't want
to be interrupted.

Michael, you're asking me to
hack a government institution.

I can't do that.
Look closely, Benjamin.

It's a private corporation. And
I'm telling you, they're scumbags.

What's it for?

What do you mean?

I mean, ifyou're asking
me to do something like this,

I have to bill it to a case.

And what if I asked you not to?

I would have to ask you why.

I'm going against
Harvey's wishes.

You asked me to do that
once before for a mock trial.

And I need to know.
Is this mock or is it real?

It's real.
And Harvey can't know.

Harvey.

I didn't think you ever
got south of canal street.

Yeah, well, today,
I'm making an exception.

Is that offer
still on the table?

Are you serious?

I'm here, aren't I?

Then, hell, yeah,
it's still on the table.

I'll talk to
Tommy Bratton right now.

Well, when you talk to him,

you tell him I'm only coming
over if he meets my demands.

And what demands would those be?

I don't just want partner,
I want an office with a view.

I want to eat what I kill,

and I want to get paid more than
any other junior partner in the firm.

Those are some pretty big asks.

I can't guarantee
Bratton's going to say yes.

You want to make partner on my
coattails, you make him say yes.

Your coattails?

I'm talking about me helping
you as much as you helping me.

Then do what you said
you were going to do.

Because if you can't make that
happen, they don't respect me.

And I'm not coming to a place
where I'm not respected.

Okay, Harvey.

But if you want respect, you
need to show some damn respect.

I go in and stick
my neck out for you,

you don't come back
and say you'll consider it.

It's a done goddamn deal.

Okay, Alex, you have my word.

You get me everything
I'm asking for...

I'm done with Pearson hardman.

Jessica. Hey, how are you?

Louis, remember we talked about

not abusing your power
with Harvey?

Absolutely. And that's why I
treated him with the utmost respect.

Well, if that's the case,

then exactly why did he litigate
reinsdorf behind your back?

God damn it!
What the hell did he do?

I'm not concerned
with what he did.

I'm concerned with what you did.

Jessica, I swear
I was the perfect gentleman.

But then, Harvey
questioned my leadership.

In other words, he had
a better idea than you.

Well, whether it was
or it wasn't,

he didn't respect
the office of junior partner.

Because there is no office
of junior partner, Louis.

And the real problem here
isn't Harvey,

it's that chip on your shoulder.

What chip?

Louis, I need you to be at this
address tomorrow morning at 9:00 am.

Because I believe

you will benefit from therapy,

and this man is the best
in the business.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Back
the truck up, Jessica. Therapy?

I'm the most
stable, secure man you ever met.

And you fight me on this,

you'll be the most
unemployed man I've ever met.

Do we understand each other?

Yeah. 9:00 am. It is.

And Louis, when you walk
through that door,

you're going to be tempted
to turn right the hell around.

And I'm telling you, if you
want a future here, you won't.

Hey, what are you doing here? I
thought you were in court all day.

Well, Jessica had other plans.

Like booting me off this case.

What?

She walked in there and threw
me out with my tail between my legs

like I was a piece of shit
first-year associate.

Listen to me.
You need to calm down

so we can figure out
what we're going to do.

I am calm.

And I already took care
of what we're going to do.

What are you talking about?

I got us an offer
at Bratton gould.

If everything goes like I think,

we'll be there
by the end of the week.

What? Harvey,
that doesn't make any sense.

Jessica's your biggest fan.
She's always been in your corner.

Was she in my corner
when hardman promoted Louis?

That's not fair.
That was his call.

Well, whose call
was cutting my balls off

in front of
the entire courtroom today?

I don't care what she did.

The woman paid for you to go to
law school out of her own pocket.

The least you can do
is talk to her

before you do
something like this.

Donna, I tried talking to her.

But it doesn't matter.
It's too late.

I gave Alex my word.
It's a done deal.

Well, it may be
a done deal for you,

but it isn't a done deal for me.

Donna. I like it here, Harvey.

And you can't just
make this kind of decision

about my life without
running it by me first.

If this is your way
of trying to get me to stay...

I'm not trying to get
you to do anything.

But I'm not just
going to follow you

out the door without
thinking this through.

What do you want, Donna?
You want an apology?

Well, here it is. I'm sorry
I didn't consult with you.

I don't want an apology, Harvey.

I wanted to talk this
thing through with you.

Which, by the way, is what you
should have done with Jessica.

Well, you know what, Donna?
I didn't come to you for advice.

I came to tell you
to start packing.

But if you don't want to come
with me, then don't come with me.

Rachel, do you have a second?

Of course.

Mike went to prison for me.

I owe him, and I know it.

But he's not the only guy I owe.

And that guy's going to
have a serious problem

if I stick my head in the sand pretending
Mike isn't who I know he really is.

That's a shitty
situation to be in.

Yeah, it is.

So, I'm going
to ask you something,

but I need you
to be honest with me.

Is Mike still working on the
case against reform corp?

He is.

And for the record, Harvey,
he told me that if you asked,

to tell you everything
you wanted to know.

What exactly is he doing?

He's trying to build a criminal
case to give to Anita Gibbs.

Which he has every right to do.

Because the agreement he
signed only precluded a civil suit.

Exactly.

How far along is he?
I don't know.

But, knowing Mike, I'm
sure he's a hell of a lot closer

than he was this morning.

What do you think? Do you
want to share a bottle of Rose?

I think I remember what
happened the last time we did that.

All the more reason to
get it then.

I couldn't agree more.

Good.
Now that that is decided...

Happy anniversary.

Shakespeare's sonnets.
Everyone is talking about this guy.

Apparently, he's all the
rage right now.

This was my favorite class
in college. How did you know?

I do my homework.

Thank you.

What? Nothing.

It's just so nice to be with
a man who's so thoughtful

after spending all day
with a man

who doesn't even know
what the word means.

You're talking about Harvey.

He's leaving the firm
and he just assumed

that I would go with him.

He didn't even think
to ask me first.

We're celebrating tonight.
Let's not talk about Harvey.

I'm not talking about Harvey.

I'm talking about my life, and a
huge decision that I have to make.

Wait a second. You're actually
thinking about going with him,

even after
the way he treated you?

I don't know
what I'm going to do.

Well, what if I said that I'd like
you to stay at Pearson hardman?

Why would you say that?
You know why.

Because Harvey's like a
silent partner in our relationship.

I mean, we can't even get through a
dinner without his name coming up.

Mark, I specifically told him
not to interrupt us tonight

so he wouldn't come up.
And yet, he came up anyway.

Mark...

Look, I don't pretend to
be as insightful as you are.

But if you can't even
separate yourself from him

when he's asking you
to leave a job that you love?

It makes me wonder if it's
really the job you love, after all.

What do you want
me to say, Mark?

I want you to say that you're
not going to follow the guy

wherever he goes
for the rest of your life.

I'm not going to say that.

Okay, well, I guess
I have my answer, then.

Rachel, you are not going to
believe... Mike, before you say anything,

Harvey asked me if you were
still going after reform corp.

And I told him that you were.

It doesn't matter,
'cause I got them. What?

Gallo told me
that Masterson was using

reform corp's inmates
to build new prisons.

Okay, but using inmates for
private companies is illegal.

It would be.
Except five years ago,

Alex Williams got a waiver
from the state corrections board

allowing them to supplement
their workforce with inmates.

So, where's the crime?

Wait a second.
Why are Masterson's budgets

on reform corp's email server?

More importantly,
why are the labor costs

a fifth of what
they submitted to the state?

Jesus.

Mike, they didn't just use the
inmates to supplement the workforce.

The inmates were the workforce.

Which means reform corp is
not just extending sentences.

They're defrauding the state

and they're splitting the
profits with Masterson 50-50.

Mike, where did you get all
this? What does that matter?

It matters because
if it came from Masterson,

then Harvey can stop
Anita Gibbs from using it.

Well, it didn't.

Benjamin got it
from reform corp's server.

Which means we can redact
Masterson, give it to Gibbs,

and she can put
the pieces together herself.

There is nothing
that Harvey can do about it.

Mike, he could
fire you for this.

Rachel, I've been torn up trying
to reconcile two parts of myself

for as long as I can remember.

Pro bono versus corporate law.

If he lets me go,
then he lets me go.

Hello?

Hi. I'm Louis litt. I'm here
for my 9:00 am. Appointment.

Hello?

Yeah, Mr. Litt.
We've been expecting you.

I'm sorry, but did you just
speak in a German accent?

Please, taken "ze" seat.

Holy shit,
you're a goddamn Nazi.

What did you just say to me?

I said I'm not going to sit here

and talk to you
about the weather,

let alone my goddamn feelings.

Thanks but no thanks,
Wienerschnitzel.

Please. Louis.

Just give me two minutes.

Two minutes.

First of all,
I take it you're Jewish.

Yeah, I'm not comfortable
answering that right now.

Well, it seems fairly clear,
based on the fact

that you just called me a Nazi.

What's your point?

Would it interest you to
know that I am Jewish, too?

Yeah? Well, take out your circumcised
junk and maybe I'll believe you.

I'm not going to do that, Louis.

But I will tell you
that my parents

were both children
during the war.

They survived
by fleeing the country

and felt it their duty
to eventually return

and raise both my sister and
myself as proud Germans and Jews.

So, if you want to leave
because you don't like

the way I speak, I understand.

But if not, why don't you
tell me what brings you here?

I'm here, because no matter
what I do, nobody respects me.

Jessica, we need to talk.

We do.

But if you're looking
for an apology...

I'm not here for an apology.

I'm here to tell you
that I'm expecting

a job offer from Bratton gould.

You're expecting one
or you went looking for one?

Does it matter? It does to me.

Then you should know I was
offered a job, I turned it down,

and it was going
to stay turned down

until you made it crystal
clear that you don't respect me.

What I made clear
is that I call the shots.

And if you don't see how
that helps you in the long run...

Screw the long run.

They're going to make me
a partner now.

You won't even go to bat for me.

You know what, Harvey?

I'm about done with
your little song and dance

about how I don't
have your back.

I picked you out
of the goddamn mailroom.

And I've given you every
opportunity you ever had.

This was a mistake.
What was a mistake?

I came here to give you a
chance to talk me out of leaving.

But when this offer
comes in, it's too late.

Just out of curiosity,
what would you have me do?

You know what the hell
I'd have you do.

Harvey, you have more raw talent

than 99% of the partners
in this firm.

But I'm not going to give you
a promotion based on a threat.

You'll get one
when you're ready.

And if that's not
good enough for you,

then lwish you luck
at Bratton gould.

Then consider this
my official notice.

Louis, we've spent
the last 40 minutes

going over every person
who has shown you disrespect

since the day you were born.

Are you kidding? I'm just
getting started. Be that as it may.

If I ask you the one
person whose respect

you crave the most,
who would it be?

Don't dwell on it,
just say the first name

that pops into your head.

Harvey specter. Good.

What's he like?

He's like a cross between
Marlon Brando and Superman.

What?

I'm just picturing.

This Harvey, is he a friend?

He's my best friend. Hmm.

And would he describe you
as his best friend?

What the... what the fuck
is that supposed to mean?

Louis. You son of a bitch.

You're implying that I'm not as
good as him? That I'm worthless?

Well, you know what,
you Nazi supposed Jew?

I don't need to take that from
you. I'm goddamn out of here!

Louis, this is wonderful.

What the hell
are you talking about?

Most people take years
to reveal their true selves.

But you... you are
like a man without skin.

I can see right through you.

This is fantastic.

How the hell is this fantastic?

Because I can help you.

Your feelings of disrespect
are internal.

And you project them onto
the people in front of you.

And in your life,

those people throw that
disrespect back at you.

Well, I'm not going to
do that to you.

I'm going to be here for you.

Well, that sounds like a
load of crap. Listen to me.

If you keep treating the
people in your life like this,

you're going to push them away.

You know what, doc?

Jessica made me come here.

And I did.

And now that I have,
it's crystal clear

the last thing I need
in the world is therapy.

Louis, calm down. You're
wearing a hole in the carpet.

Well, I'm sorry, Donna. Harvey
called an emergency meeting.

What do you expect?
Lexpect a little self-control.

Good, you're here.

Gretchen said it couldn't
wait. What's going on?

I've got a move I want to make.

But before I do,
I want to put it to a vote.

Donna: What kind of move?
Harvey: A big one.

Donna: Harvey, does this
have something to do

with the fight between
you, Alex, and Mike?

Yes. And I have reason to
believe that fight's not over.

Harvey, what's going on?

Alex has a gun to his head and
if I don't do something about it,

he's going to be
in some deep shit.

I have a way out of it, but there's
going to be some consequences.

For who? For Mike.

Harvey, is there any
other way out of this mess?

If there were,
I wouldn't be standing here.

Then tell us what you want to
do and let's get this over with.

Don't tell me this is that "two
partners for the price of one" idea

you pitched me a year ago.

It is, but Harvey specter isn't
like any lawyer we've ever had.

Well, he better not be
if he has the balls

to ask for the moon
and stars like this.

Look, the problem is,
I already have an offer out

to a hot shot at skadden.

And if he hasn't
already said yes,

what the hell is he waiting for?

I'll tell you what. He's
afraid he can't hack it here.

Or he's using us
to get a better offer.

Either way, Harvey and I
are a better choice.

All right, Alex.

It looks like you two guys
have your shit together.

But here's the thing.

I pull this offer
and your guy says no,

I'm left here with nothing
but my dick in my hand.

So, you tell me right now you
guarantee that he says yes.

You think I didn't know
you were going to demand that?

I already talked
to him about it.

He gave me his word.

Okay, it looks like I have
two new partners.

But, Alex,
this thing goes south,

it's your ass
that's on the line.

So, you having a good coffee?

Is that what we're doing
with our 11 o' clocks now?

Louis... what the hell
is your problem?

My problem is I found out
you moved my court date.

So, why don't you go
tell your work husband

if he thinks I'm going to forget about
this, he's got another thing coming.

You know what, Louis? Why
don't you go tell him yourself?

But you better hurry,
because as of Monday,

Harvey doesn't
work here anymore.

What? You heard me.

Harvey's leaving,
my life is a mess,

and as far as I'm concerned,
that's on you.

Me? What do you mean, me?

If you can't figure out
what I mean by that,

then you may be
a good junior partner,

but you got a long way
to go as a human being.

What are you doing here? What
do you mean, what am I doing here?

You wanted a conspiracy,
I got you one.

I don't want anything from you.

And for the record,
I was a fool to think

I could trust you
in the first place.

Anita, I don't know what
the hell you're talking about.

Don't play dumb with me.

Pearson specter doesn't
just represent Masterson,

you also represent reform corp.

Which means
anything I get from you

is tainted because
you broke privilege.

God damn it. Harvey
must have just signed them.

So, what you're saying
is Harvey was never on board

with this in the first place?

Anita, you can still
take this case, all right?

You just say you received
the evidence... anonymously?

I don't think so, Mike.
And one more thing.

The next time you're looking to
involve me in a war with Harvey specter,

go to someone else.

Jessica, I heard about Harvey.

Louis, he made his choice.

It's not the choice
that I wanted,

but we're just going
to have to deal with it.

Now, if you don't mind.

Actually, I do mind.

Jessica, this whole thing
was my fault.

I put him in a position where
he had to leave and you know it.

Louis, that's big of
you, but... but nothing.

Dr. Lipschitz said when
you don't respect yourself,

you go looking for signs
of disrespect in others.

And the way I got
to junior partner...

I don't respect myself for that.

What are you saying?

I'm saying if it was
my pride in refusing

to admit that he was right
and I was wrong

that caused him to go, I
won't be able to forgive myself.

So, please, do not let him go.

Yeah. Louis.

Did you mean what
you said the other day?

About the associates needing
guidance and discipline?

To tell you the truth,
I didn't at the time.

But yes, they do.

Then, as the firm's
newest partner,

how would you like to officially
be in charge of the associates?

I'd like that very much.

Treat them well.

I will.

Did you come here
to say goodbye?

Because I think
we already did that.

No, Harvey.

I came here to let
you know that I did

what I should have done
in the first place.

What exactly does that mean?

It means I just went
to see Daniel

and I told him if the
next person we promote

to junior partner
isn't you, I'm leaving.

You did that for me?

Sometimes playing the long game

means understanding
who you want to be

teammates with in the long run.

And the person I want to be
teammates with in the long run is you.

I hope I'm not too late, Harvey.

But if I am, I really do wish
you luck at Bratton gould.

Harvey,
Alex Williams just called.

Says it's a done deal.

For the record,
I would have gone with you.

For the record, I should
have asked you first.

Hello? Louis:
Dr. Lipschitz, it's Louis litt.

Listen, you were right.

I do need someone who isn't
going to let me push them away.

I'm very happy
to hear that, Louis.

Do you think five days
a week is too much?

Why don't we just start with an
appointment on Monday and go from there?

Sounds good.

What the hell is wrong with you?

Nothing's wrong with me.

I ordered you to drop
this thing. You didn't.

So, I figured out a way
to make you drop it.

You think signing reform corp's

going to make this go away,
you're out of your mind.

And if you think that's true, you
wouldn't be in my face right now.

Harvey, they are
lining their pockets

on the backs of people who
should have gone free years ago.

And you're letting them
get away with it.

I'm their lawyer.
I'm not a prosecutor.

What the fuck does Alex
Williams have on you, huh?

Nobody has anything on me.
Then why the hell are you doing this?

Because there's no way
it's for the money.

You don't understand. I'll
tell you what I do understand.

You owe him something and
they have something on him.

And if I can figure that out, how
long do you think it's going to take

before whatever it is
gets out anyway?

You listen to me.

If you ever valued the times
that we've had each other's backs,

you'll have mine now.
Because I'm telling you, ineedit

then tell me what's going on.

I'm not going to do that,
because I can't trust you.

But I'll tell you this.

You lift a finger
to do something

that even looks like you're
making another move on this case...

I don't care ifyou're
calling Oscar reyes

to wish him a happy birthday,
you're fired.

So, why don't you take
the night and decide

if you trust me enough
to keep working here or not.

Hey, hey.

You here to check out your
new office? Because it's ready.

Alex, I'm staying
at Pearson hardman.

What?

We had a deal. I know that.

But then, I realized
Jessica's family.

And no title is worth
giving that up.

I don't care what you realized.

I told Tommy Bratton
you signed on the dotted line.

He pulled an offer to that
hotshot from skadden for me.

I know this puts you
in a bad spot.

"Bad spot?" You stood in front of
me, gave me your goddamn word,

and I banked on that.

So, I don't care what kind of
come-to-Jesus moment you think you had.

That shit is legally binding.

And you want to try to
enforce that, go right ahead.

But what does it say
to the world

when a firm has to sue a
iawyerjust to get him to come there?

What's it say when I can't
trust you anymore?

Alex, you don't need me
to make partner.

Maybe I don't.
But this is some bullshit.

I'm not saying it's not.

And I know right now,
my word means nothing.

But I promise you,

someday, you're going to
need help with something.

And no matter what it is, I'll
be there for you. I owe you one.

And you can let it go or not.

But I'm telling you man-to-man,

this is something I have to do.

Okay, Harvey.

I'll let it go.
But you do owe me one.

And someday,
I'm going to come calling.

Harvey, I know
you want to help Alex.

But if it means losing Mike,
then I have to ask. "Is it worth it?"

Mike went to prison for you.

I know that, Donna.

Harvey, what did Alex do?

Why do you owe him?

Alex.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to come clean to you.

Does Harvey know you're here?

In fact, he told me
not to talk to you at all.

But you have a right
to know the truth and...

I'm tired of having this whole
thing hang over my head.

Come on in.

After Alex told Bratton that I
wasn't coming, he was nothing.

They gave him unwinnable cases

and worked him 90 hours a week,

until one day,
Bratton came to him

and said there was a way back.

All he had to do was take on
Masterson construction as a client.

Exactly. And he said yes.

Of course I said yes.
There were no red flags.

The waiver that put inmates to
work was just smart business.

On the surface,
everything was legit.

So, how did you
figure out it wasn't?

One day, I was at brunswick,
and a guard gave me a letter.

It said an inmate
had died on the job site

and that it was
being covered up.

And let me guess, you took it to
pat kreuger, Masterson's ceo.

And he said that
he'd look into it.

Two weeks later, that guard
was murdered by an inmate.

Don na: Holy shit.

And that's when he knew
Masterson and reform corp

had been colluding
from the start.

So, what did he do? He
went to his managing partner.

And Tommy Bratton said it wasn't
collusion between two parties.

It was collusion
between three parties.

They'd tied all my bonuses
to all the key dates.

The waiver.
The start of construction.

The guard's death.

It looked like I orchestrated
the whole damn thing.

So, you covered up a murder?

I had no proof of anything.

I had a wife and daughter
and it looked like I was in on it.

Harvey, that's horrible.
But this isn't on you.

Alex still could have
made a call anonymously.

And so could you, when you
found out Mike was a fraud.

You didn't have to be a
party to a crime, but you were.

That crime wasn't a murder.

Did you hear me, Donna?
They had him.

I had a wife and daughter,
and they set me up.

What was I supposed to do?

Mike, I hate these people.

They deserve to go away
for what they did.

And every morning when lwoke up

and every night
when I went to sleep,

I wanted to make that happen.

But I didn't, for one reason.

I didn't want my daughter
to grow up without a father.

And if you pursue this, there's
no way I don't get caught up in it.

You don't know that. Yes, I do.

When Bratton came
after our clients,

Alex signed a declaration
saying he took full responsibility.

Harvey, if you're asking Mike
to let this thing go...

I don't know if I can do that.

I'm not asking you to let it go.

I'm telling you what
will happen if you don't.
