1
00:00:10,648 --> 00:00:12,813
Palmer figured out that
we're doing this with Seidel.
2
00:00:12,814 --> 00:00:14,148
And unless we drop the lawsuit,
3
00:00:14,149 --> 00:00:16,083
he's gonna come after us
for collusion.
4
00:00:16,117 --> 00:00:17,795
If I pull out of that hearing,
Palmer can't touch us.
5
00:00:17,819 --> 00:00:19,552
I'm not doing anything
until you tell Nathan
6
00:00:19,587 --> 00:00:21,654
exactly what's going on.
There's nothing to tell.
7
00:00:21,689 --> 00:00:22,733
You said
you're doing this case
8
00:00:22,757 --> 00:00:23,956
as a way
to get into the Bar.
9
00:00:23,992 --> 00:00:25,491
And I just withdrew
my application.
10
00:00:25,527 --> 00:00:27,560
I knew Mike was a fraud
before he was arrested.
11
00:00:27,595 --> 00:00:29,139
I leveraged it
to get my name on the wall.
12
00:00:29,163 --> 00:00:31,130
I thought I knew
what kind of man you were.
13
00:00:31,165 --> 00:00:32,331
How dare you say that to me
14
00:00:32,367 --> 00:00:33,744
when the first time
we slept together,
15
00:00:33,768 --> 00:00:35,268
you were with another man.
16
00:00:35,303 --> 00:00:36,780
I don't want to spend
the rest of my life
17
00:00:36,804 --> 00:00:38,471
with a man who gave up
on his dreams,
18
00:00:38,506 --> 00:00:41,140
and I know that you don't want
to be that man either.
19
00:00:41,175 --> 00:00:43,109
We have proof
of over a dozen instances
20
00:00:43,144 --> 00:00:44,488
of you committing
corporate espionage.
21
00:00:44,512 --> 00:00:45,912
What do you want?
22
00:00:45,947 --> 00:00:47,124
You're gonna settle
with those miners.
23
00:00:47,148 --> 00:00:48,748
You're gonna forget
you ever heard of us.
24
00:00:48,783 --> 00:00:50,094
And you're gonna honor
your original agreement
25
00:00:50,118 --> 00:00:51,517
with Craig Seidel.
26
00:00:51,553 --> 00:00:53,130
I don't just want you
to set that hearing.
27
00:00:53,154 --> 00:00:55,521
I want you to bulldoze anyone
who stands in my way.
28
00:01:04,032 --> 00:01:06,198
What time is it?
29
00:01:06,234 --> 00:01:08,868
Don't worry.
You're not late for work.
30
00:01:10,438 --> 00:01:12,405
Here.
Thanks.
31
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,140
I could use this.
32
00:01:14,175 --> 00:01:15,875
I got in pretty late
last night.
33
00:01:15,910 --> 00:01:18,778
Does that have anything
to do with the flowers
34
00:01:18,813 --> 00:01:21,147
I just found in the kitchen?
35
00:01:21,182 --> 00:01:23,749
Can't a guy just buy you
flowers 'cause he loves you?
36
00:01:23,785 --> 00:01:27,153
He can.
But he didn't.
37
00:01:27,188 --> 00:01:29,655
You're right.
38
00:01:29,691 --> 00:01:32,224
I bought them
to say thank you
39
00:01:32,260 --> 00:01:34,560
for doing whatever it took
to make sure
40
00:01:34,596 --> 00:01:36,562
I got my shot
at getting into the Bar.
41
00:01:36,598 --> 00:01:37,897
Wait, does that mean that...
42
00:01:37,932 --> 00:01:39,432
Yeah. We did it.
43
00:01:39,467 --> 00:01:44,170
My hearing's tomorrow.
Seidel's on our side.
44
00:01:44,205 --> 00:01:46,572
I can't believe it.
45
00:01:46,608 --> 00:01:48,140
This could really happen.
46
00:01:48,176 --> 00:01:49,642
I know.
47
00:01:51,579 --> 00:01:53,179
What is it?
48
00:01:53,214 --> 00:01:54,146
I promised Oliver
that I would tell Nathan
49
00:01:54,182 --> 00:01:56,015
about the whole thing.
50
00:01:56,050 --> 00:01:58,184
- Mike, you can't do that.
- I know I can't.
51
00:01:58,219 --> 00:02:00,353
But I gotta get a couple days
off for the hearing,
52
00:02:00,388 --> 00:02:03,623
which means I gotta tell him
something.
53
00:02:12,634 --> 00:02:15,401
Louis, what are you
doing here?
54
00:02:15,436 --> 00:02:17,036
I hope you don't mind
I stopped by.
55
00:02:17,071 --> 00:02:18,037
I had to see you.
56
00:02:18,072 --> 00:02:20,239
I couldn't sleep at all
last night.
57
00:02:20,274 --> 00:02:22,308
- Neither could I.
- Tara, please.
58
00:02:22,343 --> 00:02:24,210
I know we had a fight,
59
00:02:24,245 --> 00:02:26,479
but you told me
you wanted to get to know me.
60
00:02:26,514 --> 00:02:28,648
And I swear, what I told you
61
00:02:28,683 --> 00:02:30,216
was the worst thing
I've ever done.
62
00:02:30,251 --> 00:02:32,284
Louis, the thing I'm having
trouble dealing with
63
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,954
has nothing to do
with that person at your firm.
64
00:02:34,989 --> 00:02:36,734
It has to do with
how you treated me last night.
65
00:02:36,758 --> 00:02:38,457
- Tara, please.
- Let me finish.
66
00:02:38,493 --> 00:02:40,126
You shared
something horrible with me,
67
00:02:40,161 --> 00:02:42,228
gave me no time to process it,
68
00:02:42,263 --> 00:02:44,330
and while I was taking it in,
69
00:02:44,365 --> 00:02:47,066
you not only attacked
my integrity,
70
00:02:47,101 --> 00:02:48,467
you made me feel
ashamed of myself.
71
00:02:48,503 --> 00:02:49,835
You're right.
72
00:02:49,871 --> 00:02:52,104
I lashed out,
and I shouldn't have.
73
00:02:52,140 --> 00:02:55,107
But I only did it because I was
afraid of you rejecting me.
74
00:02:55,143 --> 00:02:57,076
And I will...
75
00:02:57,111 --> 00:02:59,145
Tara, I'll die
if you reject me.
76
00:02:59,180 --> 00:03:01,080
That's the thing, Louis.
77
00:03:01,115 --> 00:03:04,684
You had a reason for reacting
the way you did.
78
00:03:07,321 --> 00:03:09,121
But I'm not sure
I want to be with a man
79
00:03:09,157 --> 00:03:11,235
who thinks there's ever
a reason to treat me that way.
80
00:03:11,259 --> 00:03:12,792
- Tara...
- I'm sorry, Louis.
81
00:03:12,827 --> 00:03:14,405
They're waiting for me
in the conference room.
82
00:03:14,429 --> 00:03:17,063
I told you I'll call,
83
00:03:17,098 --> 00:03:19,265
and I will call.
84
00:03:29,143 --> 00:03:31,143
- Nathan.
- Mike. What's up?
85
00:03:31,179 --> 00:03:33,179
Nothing.
I just wanted to give you this.
86
00:03:36,184 --> 00:03:37,750
This is a check for $50,000.
87
00:03:37,785 --> 00:03:39,118
I know.
We settled.
88
00:03:39,153 --> 00:03:41,153
I gave the miners their checks
last night.
89
00:03:41,189 --> 00:03:43,422
Mike, this is the most money
we've ever made on a case.
90
00:03:43,458 --> 00:03:45,502
For once, we're not gonna
have to worry about making rent.
91
00:03:45,526 --> 00:03:47,093
Yeah. Right.
92
00:03:47,128 --> 00:03:48,994
That's not a joke.
93
00:03:49,030 --> 00:03:50,496
Wait, you're telling me
that $50,000
94
00:03:50,531 --> 00:03:52,142
can really make that big
a difference to the clinic?
95
00:03:52,166 --> 00:03:53,844
I'm telling you
that I know in corporate law,
96
00:03:53,868 --> 00:03:55,612
money doesn't matter unless
it's in the millions, but...
97
00:03:55,636 --> 00:03:58,938
here, $50,000 makes
all the difference in the world.
98
00:03:58,973 --> 00:04:01,440
Well, in that case, Nathan,
I've been working here
99
00:04:01,476 --> 00:04:03,142
seven days a week
since I started,
100
00:04:03,177 --> 00:04:05,144
and I've got some
personal stuff that I need to--
101
00:04:05,179 --> 00:04:07,257
Stop right there. Look.
You just bought me 30 days rent.
102
00:04:07,281 --> 00:04:09,882
The least I can do
is give you a few days back.
103
00:04:09,917 --> 00:04:11,550
Great.
Thank you.
104
00:04:11,586 --> 00:04:13,185
Thank you.
105
00:04:22,263 --> 00:04:24,363
- Okay, let's hear it.
- Hear what?
106
00:04:24,398 --> 00:04:25,776
The joke you spent all morning
coming up with.
107
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,199
What joke?
108
00:04:27,235 --> 00:04:29,113
I was just gonna ask you
where the law library was,
109
00:04:29,137 --> 00:04:30,481
but then I realized
you've never set foot in there.
110
00:04:30,505 --> 00:04:32,371
Shouldn't you be at the clinic
saving whales?
111
00:04:32,406 --> 00:04:33,906
First of all,
that's Greenpeace.
112
00:04:33,941 --> 00:04:35,808
And second of all,
I took the day off
113
00:04:35,843 --> 00:04:37,821
so I could prepare for the
Character and Fitness Committee.
114
00:04:37,845 --> 00:04:39,211
Oh, that means
you're taking
115
00:04:39,247 --> 00:04:40,791
whatever that hitch
is gonna be seriously.
116
00:04:40,815 --> 00:04:42,782
- You know I am.
- That's what I like to hear.
117
00:04:42,817 --> 00:04:44,457
Because I don't want
somebody working here
118
00:04:44,485 --> 00:04:46,418
who doesn't listen to my advice.
119
00:04:46,454 --> 00:04:48,254
Harvey, I still don't think
you understand.
120
00:04:48,289 --> 00:04:51,056
When this thing is over,
I am not coming back here.
121
00:04:51,092 --> 00:04:53,159
- Mike--
- I told you, I want to do good.
122
00:04:53,194 --> 00:04:55,127
- Then do good here.
- And I also told you
123
00:04:55,163 --> 00:04:56,640
that the only reason
I agreed to this whole thing
124
00:04:56,664 --> 00:04:58,242
in the first place was because
I couldn't stand
125
00:04:58,266 --> 00:05:00,065
to watch
someone like Oliver fail
126
00:05:00,101 --> 00:05:01,801
and not be able to help him.
127
00:05:01,836 --> 00:05:03,280
And people like Oliver
don't work in places like this.
128
00:05:03,304 --> 00:05:04,937
They work in places like that.
129
00:05:04,972 --> 00:05:07,273
And people like you
shouldn't be working anywhere.
130
00:05:07,308 --> 00:05:09,074
What are you doing here,
Anita?
131
00:05:09,110 --> 00:05:11,110
I'm here because
the U.S. Attorney's Office
132
00:05:11,145 --> 00:05:12,411
requested that they be notified
133
00:05:12,446 --> 00:05:14,079
if Mike Ross
ever applied to the Bar.
134
00:05:14,115 --> 00:05:16,682
What does the U.S. Attorney's
Office have to do with Mike?
135
00:05:16,717 --> 00:05:19,251
Nothing.
Except I happen to work there.
136
00:05:19,287 --> 00:05:21,954
And as of one week ago,
I'm also the newest member
137
00:05:21,989 --> 00:05:22,955
of the Character and Fitness
Committee.
138
00:05:22,990 --> 00:05:24,423
Bullshit.
139
00:05:24,458 --> 00:05:26,036
There's a whole process
to get on that committee.
140
00:05:26,060 --> 00:05:28,071
There's no way you just happened
to be in the pipeline.
141
00:05:28,095 --> 00:05:29,328
You're right.
I wasn't.
142
00:05:29,363 --> 00:05:30,863
But when a member takes leave,
143
00:05:30,898 --> 00:05:33,065
he has the right
to appoint his replacement.
144
00:05:33,100 --> 00:05:36,068
And Walter Samson appointed me.
145
00:05:36,103 --> 00:05:37,770
You think
I'm not gonna find out
146
00:05:37,805 --> 00:05:39,583
whatever bullshit you did
to get this guy to drop out?
147
00:05:39,607 --> 00:05:42,041
Be my guest, because if Mike
is going before that hearing,
148
00:05:42,076 --> 00:05:44,143
that means
you did something too.
149
00:05:44,178 --> 00:05:46,078
What do you want?
150
00:05:46,113 --> 00:05:48,499
I want to tell you you might
as well cancel this hearing,
151
00:05:48,586 --> 00:05:49,980
save us all a lot of time.
152
00:05:50,077 --> 00:05:52,186
Because the vote
has to be unanimous.
153
00:05:52,187 --> 00:05:54,935
And you are never getting
my vote.

where a person was
admitted to the Bar
168

and the vote wasn't unanimous.
Mike, what's going on?
169
00:06:41,011 --> 00:06:42,455
Anita Gibbs got herself
onto the board.
170
00:06:42,479 --> 00:06:44,023
Then what we should be doing
is finding a way
171

But in the meantime,
I need to know
173
00:06:46,650 --> 00:06:48,116
the ins and outs
of this committee,
174
00:06:48,152 --> 00:06:49,851
because while she's on it,
she's gonna use
175
00:06:49,887 --> 00:06:51,197
every dirty trick in the book
to end this thing
176
00:06:51,221 --> 00:06:52,932
before it gets started.
Where are you going?
177
00:06:52,956 --> 00:06:54,501
I'm gonna go hole myself up
in the library
178
00:06:54,525 --> 00:06:56,035
and start preparing answers
to every dirty question
179
00:06:56,059 --> 00:06:57,659
I can think of.
180
00:07:04,868 --> 00:07:06,535
Louis, are you okay?
181
00:07:06,570 --> 00:07:08,437
I'm fine, Donna.
What can I do for you?
182
00:07:08,472 --> 00:07:11,573
I know you know Benjamin and I
have been working on a business.
183
00:07:11,608 --> 00:07:13,074
But I'm not sure
that you know
184
00:07:13,110 --> 00:07:15,076
that we brought on
Stu as an investor.
185
00:07:15,112 --> 00:07:16,256
- I didn't, Donna; That's great.
- It is.
186
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:17,779
But there's a problem,
187
00:07:17,815 --> 00:07:19,259
and I need your help with it.
Anything.
188
00:07:19,283 --> 00:07:21,550
Benjamin applied for a patent,
and it turns out
189
00:07:21,585 --> 00:07:24,085
that our technology
overlaps with someone else's.
190
00:07:24,121 --> 00:07:25,954
- How much overlap?
- 32.5%.
191
00:07:25,989 --> 00:07:27,255
That's over the threshold.
192
00:07:27,291 --> 00:07:28,890
Unless Benjamin
can get you below 30--
193
00:07:28,926 --> 00:07:30,892
He can't.
But Stu says we can negotiate
194
00:07:30,928 --> 00:07:31,971
with whoever
holds the patent,
195
00:07:31,995 --> 00:07:33,995
get them to give us
an exclusion,
196
00:07:34,031 --> 00:07:35,942
and we'll still be able to move
forward with The Donna.
197
00:07:35,966 --> 00:07:37,999
Donna, this is exactly
what I need.
198
00:07:38,035 --> 00:07:39,100
What do you mean?
199
00:07:39,136 --> 00:07:41,102
Tara and I got
into a huge fight.
200
00:07:41,138 --> 00:07:45,474
She's deciding right now
if we're gonna stay together.
201
00:07:45,509 --> 00:07:47,409
This is exactly
what I needed
202
00:07:47,444 --> 00:07:50,111
to take my mind off it.
203
00:07:50,147 --> 00:07:53,114
Louis, I don't mean
to sound insensitive,
204
00:07:53,150 --> 00:07:56,351
but this is
incredibly important to me.
205
00:07:56,386 --> 00:07:58,987
I know you, and if this is
gonna make you go in there
206
00:07:59,022 --> 00:08:01,156
and blow this thing up,
I can't have that.
207
00:08:01,191 --> 00:08:03,992
Donna, listen to me.
208
00:08:04,027 --> 00:08:06,361
I may be losing
the closest woman in my life,
209
00:08:06,396 --> 00:08:08,096
but you are
the second closest.
210
00:08:08,131 --> 00:08:13,101
I swear that I won't do anything
to harm your company.
211
00:08:13,136 --> 00:08:15,637
Thank you.
212
00:08:15,672 --> 00:08:17,806
Knock 'em dead.
213
00:08:22,746 --> 00:08:24,779
- When were you gonna tell me?
- Tell you what?
214
00:08:24,815 --> 00:08:26,948
That the prosecutor
that put Mike in prison
215
00:08:26,984 --> 00:08:28,550
just got herself put
on that panel.
216
00:08:28,585 --> 00:08:30,318
- What?
- That's right.
217
00:08:30,354 --> 00:08:32,465
And I want to know why I heard
about it from her and not you.
218
00:08:32,489 --> 00:08:33,933
I'll tell you why.
Because I didn't know.
219
00:08:33,957 --> 00:08:35,435
But now that I do,
this thing is done.
220
00:08:35,459 --> 00:08:37,425
- The hell it is.
- Are you crazy?
221
00:08:37,461 --> 00:08:40,228
Anita Gibbs is a goddamn
Assistant U.S. Attorney.
222
00:08:40,264 --> 00:08:42,797
She gets one whiff of this,
and we are both disbarred.
223
00:08:42,833 --> 00:08:45,133
Which is why we're gonna
make sure that doesn't happen
224
00:08:45,168 --> 00:08:46,968
by getting her
kicked off that panel.
225
00:08:47,004 --> 00:08:48,570
And how exactly
are we gonna do that?
226
00:08:48,605 --> 00:08:49,949
We're gonna start
by you telling me
227
00:08:49,973 --> 00:08:52,007
everything there is to know
about Walter Samson.
228
00:08:52,042 --> 00:08:53,586
Well, then we might as well
give up right now,
229
00:08:53,610 --> 00:08:55,810
because Walter Samson
is as clean as they come.
230
00:08:55,846 --> 00:08:57,779
- No one is that clean.
- Well, this guy is.
231
00:08:57,814 --> 00:08:59,025
And I didn't sign on--
Listen to me.
232
00:08:59,049 --> 00:09:00,482
You said you were
in on this.
233
00:09:00,517 --> 00:09:02,128
And I'm telling you right now,
you still are.
234
00:09:02,152 --> 00:09:03,363
Because we moved
heaven and earth
235
00:09:03,387 --> 00:09:04,986
to get you out of hot water,
236
00:09:05,022 --> 00:09:07,088
and I got no problem
putting you right back in.
237
00:09:07,124 --> 00:09:09,024
Fine.
238
00:09:09,059 --> 00:09:10,292
But you better be careful.
239
00:09:10,327 --> 00:09:11,538
Because if
you're looking at Gibbs,
240
00:09:11,562 --> 00:09:12,861
she's going to be looking at us.
241
00:09:12,896 --> 00:09:14,896
And you coming to my lobby
in the middle of the day
242
00:09:14,932 --> 00:09:16,898
is going to get us all caught.
243
00:09:22,906 --> 00:09:25,240
Gentlemen, thank you
for meeting with me
244
00:09:25,275 --> 00:09:26,908
on such short notice.
Our pleasure.
245
00:09:26,944 --> 00:09:28,621
I assume you looked through
the documents I sent over
246
00:09:28,645 --> 00:09:29,878
and found them to your liking?
247
00:09:29,913 --> 00:09:32,747
On the contrary, we found them
most disturbing.
248
00:09:32,783 --> 00:09:34,549
In particular,
the fact that you used
249
00:09:34,585 --> 00:09:37,052
our fundamental principles
and worked up from there.
250
00:09:37,087 --> 00:09:38,820
What?
251
00:09:38,855 --> 00:09:40,567
We've never even seen
your fundamental principles
252
00:09:40,591 --> 00:09:42,057
prior to applying
for that patent.
253
00:09:42,092 --> 00:09:43,625
Can you prove that?
254
00:09:43,660 --> 00:09:45,727
Of course we can't...
prove that.
255
00:09:45,762 --> 00:09:47,662
It's not possible
to prove a negative.
256
00:09:47,698 --> 00:09:50,298
Words spoken by every hack
who's ever copied
257
00:09:50,334 --> 00:09:53,602
someone else's technology
and claimed it as their own.
258
00:09:55,539 --> 00:09:57,839
What's going on here?
259
00:09:57,874 --> 00:10:00,508
I came to you to negotiate
an exclusion in good faith.
260
00:10:00,544 --> 00:10:02,243
And we're prepared
to offer you--
261
00:10:02,279 --> 00:10:04,079
We don't care
what you're prepared to offer.
262
00:10:04,114 --> 00:10:05,925
And we didn't bring you here
to give you an exclusion.
263
00:10:05,949 --> 00:10:07,582
We brought you here
to send a message.
264
00:10:07,618 --> 00:10:10,452
This is a $90 million lawsuit
against your client
265
00:10:10,487 --> 00:10:11,886
if they go to market.
266
00:10:15,158 --> 00:10:16,925
Gentlemen, please,
267
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,527
I am not saying
we got here first.
268
00:10:19,563 --> 00:10:21,529
But it's a 2.5% overlap,
269
00:10:21,565 --> 00:10:24,366
and we are open to a 15%
revenue sharing arrangement.
270
00:10:24,401 --> 00:10:27,102
And we're not open to shit,
because we were here first.
271
00:10:27,137 --> 00:10:30,872
Listen to me.
I am trying to keep my cool.
272
00:10:30,907 --> 00:10:32,974
We don't care
if you keep your cool or not.
273
00:10:33,010 --> 00:10:34,342
Because we've got you,
274
00:10:34,378 --> 00:10:35,977
and there's nothing
you can do about it.
275
00:10:36,013 --> 00:10:37,557
So you can take your offer
and shove it in a drawer
276
00:10:37,581 --> 00:10:40,882
along with that sorry excuse
for a digital secretary,
277
00:10:40,917 --> 00:10:44,552
because neither one of them is
ever gonna see the light of day.
278
00:10:57,034 --> 00:10:59,334
Oliver.
What are you doing?
279
00:10:59,369 --> 00:11:00,702
Is it still on?
280
00:11:00,737 --> 00:11:02,971
- Is what still on?
- Your deal.
281
00:11:03,006 --> 00:11:04,806
To get into the Bar.
282
00:11:04,841 --> 00:11:06,207
Oliver, listen to me.
283
00:11:06,243 --> 00:11:07,920
Because when I asked Nathan
where you were,
284
00:11:07,944 --> 00:11:10,023
he said you were taking a couple
days for personal reasons.
285
00:11:10,047 --> 00:11:11,424
And all of a sudden,
I got this pit in my stomach
286
00:11:11,448 --> 00:11:13,314
that wouldn't go away.
287
00:11:13,350 --> 00:11:15,817
So I decided to ask you if
there's a reason I got that pit
288
00:11:15,852 --> 00:11:18,019
or if I'm just an asshole
for doubting you.
289
00:11:19,790 --> 00:11:21,122
You're not an asshole,
Oliver.
290
00:11:21,158 --> 00:11:22,824
God damn it, Mike!
291
00:11:22,859 --> 00:11:24,037
You told me
you didn't have to tell Nathan
292
00:11:24,061 --> 00:11:25,593
because there was
nothing to tell.
293
00:11:25,629 --> 00:11:27,162
And when I told you that,
there wasn't.
294
00:11:27,197 --> 00:11:28,963
But then my deal
got put back on the table.
295
00:11:28,999 --> 00:11:30,965
Which means you could have
told him this morning.
296
00:11:31,001 --> 00:11:33,868
But you didn't,
so now I have to.
297
00:11:33,904 --> 00:11:35,381
Oliver, hey, wait!
Please, hear me out!
298
00:11:35,405 --> 00:11:37,205
I'm not gonna
hear you out, Mike.
299
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,375
I was sitting here for an hour,
hoping I was wrong about you.
300
00:11:40,410 --> 00:11:42,610
You weren't wrong about me.
301
00:11:42,646 --> 00:11:45,480
I care about people.
I want to help the clinic.
302
00:11:45,515 --> 00:11:47,549
And the reason I didn't tell
Nathan what I did
303
00:11:47,584 --> 00:11:49,562
is because I'm just waiting
until I can help him even more.
304
00:11:49,586 --> 00:11:51,553
Help how?
By being a shady lawyer?
305
00:11:51,588 --> 00:11:54,089
By being someone who wouldn't
have lost Sofia Price her home.
306
00:11:55,992 --> 00:11:57,992
I cannot believe
you just said that to me.
307
00:11:58,028 --> 00:12:01,596
I said it because it's true,
and you know it.
308
00:12:02,999 --> 00:12:05,800
Look, I am gonna
tell Nathan everything
309
00:12:05,836 --> 00:12:08,103
as soon as my hearing is over.
You have my word.
310
00:12:08,138 --> 00:12:10,004
Why should I believe
the word of a liar?
311
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,507
Because of what I did
for those miners and the clinic.
312
00:12:12,542 --> 00:12:14,943
And if that's not enough,
how about what I did for you?
313
00:12:14,978 --> 00:12:18,279
You didn't do shit for me.
But fine, I won't tell Nathan.
314
00:12:18,315 --> 00:12:20,014
Just so long as
when this thing's over,
315
00:12:20,050 --> 00:12:21,916
you go back
to your corrupt corporate world.
316
00:12:21,952 --> 00:12:24,185
Because I don't care
what you tell yourself.
317
00:12:24,221 --> 00:12:27,956
You're never
gonna belong in mine.
318
00:12:34,753 --> 00:12:36,683
Harvey, what are
you still doing here?
319
00:12:36,684 --> 00:12:38,517
The hearing's across town
in ten minutes.
320
00:12:38,552 --> 00:12:40,464
I'm not going to the hearing,
Donna, and neither are you.
321
00:12:40,488 --> 00:12:42,254
- Why not?
- Because if you and I can't do
322
00:12:42,290 --> 00:12:44,468
what we need to, then whatever
Mike does at that hearing
323
00:12:44,492 --> 00:12:46,258
isn't gonna matter.
Give it to me.
324
00:12:46,294 --> 00:12:48,472
We need to figure out what
Walter Samson's weak spot is.
325
00:12:48,496 --> 00:12:49,962
Tell me how, and I'm all in.
326
00:12:49,997 --> 00:12:51,830
Start by contacting
every person we know
327
00:12:51,866 --> 00:12:53,832
and asking them what they know
about this asshole.
328
00:12:53,868 --> 00:12:55,868
Because Gibbs
has something on him
329
00:12:55,903 --> 00:12:57,269
and if I can't find out
what it is,
330
00:12:57,305 --> 00:12:59,872
then I can't get her
off that committee.
331
00:12:59,907 --> 00:13:01,507
Where are you going?
332
00:13:01,542 --> 00:13:04,810
To see someone
who doesn't know Samson at all.
333
00:13:06,314 --> 00:13:08,747
Before we get started,
I'd like to point out
334
00:13:08,783 --> 00:13:10,927
these interviews are normally
for us to quickly approve
335
00:13:10,951 --> 00:13:12,418
standard applicants to the Bar.
336
00:13:12,453 --> 00:13:14,787
However, Mr. Ross
is no standard applicant.
337
00:13:14,822 --> 00:13:17,089
Therefore, we will convene
for as long as it takes
338
00:13:17,124 --> 00:13:19,825
before ruling
on his application.
339
00:13:19,860 --> 00:13:21,927
Now...
Mr. Chairman, if I may.
340
00:13:21,962 --> 00:13:24,797
Last winter,
Mr. Ross pled guilty
341
00:13:24,832 --> 00:13:26,932
to defrauding
the citizens of New York.
342
00:13:26,967 --> 00:13:29,902
Therefore, I propose we reject
his application right now
343
00:13:29,937 --> 00:13:31,570
because Mr. Ross is a felon
344
00:13:31,605 --> 00:13:34,173
and the New York Bar
does not accept felons.
345
00:13:34,208 --> 00:13:36,520
Mr. Chairman, with all due
respect to the new board member,
346
00:13:36,544 --> 00:13:38,110
you do.
347
00:13:38,145 --> 00:13:40,179
Not only does the Bar
accept felons, but years ago,
348
00:13:40,214 --> 00:13:43,315
this very committee
admitted Neal Wiesner,
349
00:13:43,351 --> 00:13:46,340
a man who spent years in prison
for attempted murder.
350
00:13:46,341 --> 00:13:48,274
Now, Ms. Gibbs may think
my crime is worse
351
00:13:48,308 --> 00:13:50,108
than attempted murder,
but I don't think
352
00:13:50,143 --> 00:13:51,921
it's worth throwing away
140 years of precedent
353
00:13:51,945 --> 00:13:54,279
by not even allowing me
to make my case.
354
00:14:03,657 --> 00:14:05,290
Come on, let's go.
355
00:14:05,325 --> 00:14:08,059
- What the hell are you doing?
- What does it look like
356
00:14:08,095 --> 00:14:09,939
I'm doing? I'm watching my money
go down the toilet.
357
00:14:09,963 --> 00:14:12,430
Well, it looks to me
like I paid you to do a job,
358
00:14:12,466 --> 00:14:13,932
and you're sitting here
doing this.
359
00:14:13,967 --> 00:14:15,901
Okay, I'll let you in
on a little secret.
360
00:14:15,936 --> 00:14:18,103
It only takes 15 minutes
to hack someone.
361
00:14:18,138 --> 00:14:19,938
If you can't find something
in the next 45,
362
00:14:19,973 --> 00:14:21,540
it means
there's nothing to find.
363
00:14:21,575 --> 00:14:23,308
Bullshit. There's always
something to find.
364
00:14:23,343 --> 00:14:25,076
I'm telling you,
there isn't.
365
00:14:25,112 --> 00:14:27,112
He doesn't drink, smoke,
gamble, cheat, nothing.
366
00:14:27,147 --> 00:14:29,781
Listen to me. I paid you
good money to do a job,
367
00:14:29,816 --> 00:14:31,628
and if you don't put
some more effort into this,
368
00:14:31,652 --> 00:14:33,952
I'm gonna spread the word
that you aren't worth shit.
369
00:14:33,987 --> 00:14:35,987
And this time it won't
be coming from Louis Litt.
370
00:14:36,023 --> 00:14:38,123
It'll be coming from me.
Then keep your damn money.
371
00:14:38,158 --> 00:14:39,569
When I tell you
there's nothing to find,
372
00:14:39,593 --> 00:14:41,960
there's nothing to find.
373
00:14:41,995 --> 00:14:46,765
I guess what I'm saying is
not only do I admit what I did,
374
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,335
but...I regret it
375
00:14:50,370 --> 00:14:53,972
with every fiber of my being.
376
00:14:54,007 --> 00:14:57,108
And I'd like to apologize
to my clients,
377
00:14:57,144 --> 00:15:00,011
my former colleagues,
and finally to the fraternity
378
00:15:00,047 --> 00:15:02,981
of men and woman that
I've wanted to be a member of
379
00:15:03,016 --> 00:15:05,216
since I was a child.
380
00:15:08,889 --> 00:15:10,789
Well, that was
a moving statement.
381
00:15:10,824 --> 00:15:12,257
I just have one question.
382
00:15:12,292 --> 00:15:14,025
If you regret
what you did so much,
383
00:15:14,061 --> 00:15:16,194
why weren't you willing
to serve your full sentence?
384
00:15:16,229 --> 00:15:19,030
Well, I wasn't unwilling.
I was offered a deal
385
00:15:19,066 --> 00:15:21,399
to help convict a known
criminal, and I took it.
386
00:15:21,435 --> 00:15:23,068
You were offered a deal
to get out early,
387
00:15:23,103 --> 00:15:25,303
and you took it.
I protected an innocent man--
388
00:15:25,339 --> 00:15:27,405
What you did
was insinuate yourself
389
00:15:27,441 --> 00:15:29,052
into your roommate's life,
gain his trust,
390
00:15:29,076 --> 00:15:32,110
and pretend to be his friend.
True or false?
391
00:15:34,014 --> 00:15:35,447
You're taking it out of context.
392
00:15:35,482 --> 00:15:37,248
The context is
you portrayed yourself
393
00:15:37,284 --> 00:15:39,417
as one thing
when, really, you were another,
394
00:15:39,453 --> 00:15:40,830
which is what you did
the entire time
395
00:15:40,854 --> 00:15:42,420
you pretended to be an attorney
396
00:15:42,456 --> 00:15:45,924
and what I believe you are doing
to this body right now.
397
00:15:45,959 --> 00:15:48,994
Mr. Chairmen, if she's going
to impugn his character
398
00:15:49,029 --> 00:15:51,129
while he's speaking,
then he's entitled
399
00:15:51,164 --> 00:15:52,564
to let someone else
speak for him.
400
00:15:52,599 --> 00:15:54,032
This isn't
a trial.
401
00:15:54,067 --> 00:15:55,378
We don't allow
character witnesses here.
402
00:15:55,402 --> 00:15:56,368
Actually, you do.
403
00:15:56,403 --> 00:15:58,637
Article 4, 16A.
404
00:15:58,672 --> 00:16:01,072
Applicants are allowed
a witness as a rebuttal
405
00:16:01,108 --> 00:16:04,075
for an accusation leveled
by a committee member.
406
00:16:04,111 --> 00:16:06,244
That article hasn't been cited
in 30 years.
407
00:16:06,279 --> 00:16:08,747
Maybe that's because no
applicant has ever had to stand
408
00:16:08,782 --> 00:16:10,882
before the person
who put them away.
409
00:16:10,917 --> 00:16:12,450
You make a point.
410
00:16:12,486 --> 00:16:13,763
We'll pick this up
first thing in the morning
411
00:16:13,787 --> 00:16:15,387
with your witness.
Thank you.
412
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,594
Rachel, that was exactly
what I needed.
413
00:16:22,629 --> 00:16:24,129
If you hadn't done that--
I know.
414
00:16:24,164 --> 00:16:25,575
But right now I'm more
concerned with the fact
415
00:16:25,599 --> 00:16:26,943
that she's turning them
against you.
416
00:16:26,967 --> 00:16:29,701
Which means even after
Harvey kicks her off,
417
00:16:29,736 --> 00:16:32,737
Seidel's job is gonna be
that much harder.
418
00:16:32,773 --> 00:16:35,607
And we only have one shot
at having someone speak for me.
419
00:16:35,642 --> 00:16:37,876
Mike, come on.
We gotta get back to the office
420
00:16:37,911 --> 00:16:39,811
and start going through
everyone it could be.
421
00:16:39,846 --> 00:16:41,124
We'll make a list
of pros and cons.
422
00:16:41,148 --> 00:16:45,116
Rachel...
I know who it is.
423
00:16:54,327 --> 00:16:56,294
Julius.
424
00:16:56,329 --> 00:17:00,098
Mike.
What are you doing here?
425
00:17:00,133 --> 00:17:01,933
I was hoping
we could talk.
426
00:17:01,968 --> 00:17:04,602
Uh, look, I'm sorry, man.
This is not a good time.
427
00:17:04,638 --> 00:17:06,115
I just put the baby down
and the wife and I--
428
00:17:06,139 --> 00:17:07,872
Please, it won't take long.
429
00:17:07,908 --> 00:17:09,107
I got this hearing tomorrow
430
00:17:09,142 --> 00:17:11,342
for the Character portion
of the Bar,
431
00:17:11,378 --> 00:17:14,012
and I wanted to ask
if you'd speak for me.
432
00:17:14,047 --> 00:17:15,947
You mind if I ask, why me?
433
00:17:15,982 --> 00:17:18,016
Because you're the only one
I know who's qualified
434
00:17:18,051 --> 00:17:19,462
to tell the board
that I was a different man
435
00:17:19,486 --> 00:17:22,353
when I got out
than when I went in.
436
00:17:22,389 --> 00:17:24,589
No offense, Mike...
437
00:17:24,624 --> 00:17:27,192
but the truth is,
I'm not sure you are.
438
00:17:27,227 --> 00:17:28,626
What do you mean?
439
00:17:28,662 --> 00:17:30,073
I mean you said
this hearing is tomorrow.
440
00:17:30,097 --> 00:17:31,396
But you're just now
coming to me,
441
00:17:31,431 --> 00:17:33,465
which means
something's going on.
442
00:17:33,500 --> 00:17:35,233
What's going on is the woman
who put me away
443
00:17:35,268 --> 00:17:36,868
managed to get herself
on the committee,
444
00:17:36,903 --> 00:17:38,481
and now she's slamming
the door in my face.
445
00:17:38,505 --> 00:17:40,071
- And why would she do that?
- Julius--
446
00:17:40,107 --> 00:17:41,873
Mike, how did you even
get a hearing?
447
00:17:41,908 --> 00:17:44,242
What are you talking about?
I applied, like everyone else.
448
00:17:44,277 --> 00:17:46,077
No, you're not
like everyone else.
449
00:17:46,113 --> 00:17:47,979
You didn't go to law school.
It doesn't matter.
450
00:17:48,014 --> 00:17:49,492
There's an exception
called "reading the law."
451
00:17:49,516 --> 00:17:50,949
See, right there, Mike,
452
00:17:50,984 --> 00:17:53,284
that sounds like the bullshit
artist I met in prison.
453
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:54,953
So you tell me right now.
454
00:17:54,988 --> 00:17:58,990
Did you pull some shit
to make this happen?
455
00:17:59,025 --> 00:18:01,226
Damn, Mike, if you can't
be straight with me,
456
00:18:01,261 --> 00:18:03,628
this conversation
ends right here.
457
00:18:03,663 --> 00:18:06,397
Yes, I did.
458
00:18:06,433 --> 00:18:09,200
Ah, finally.
459
00:18:09,236 --> 00:18:11,102
Some truth in the night.
460
00:18:11,138 --> 00:18:14,739
Julius, I work at a law
clinic, but not as a lawyer.
461
00:18:14,775 --> 00:18:17,041
An opportunity presented itself
for me to become one
462
00:18:17,077 --> 00:18:19,043
and I turned it down,
but then I had to sit there
463
00:18:19,079 --> 00:18:20,845
and watch a woman
get put on the street
464
00:18:20,881 --> 00:18:22,714
because I couldn't help her.
465
00:18:22,749 --> 00:18:24,415
And I knew I'd have to
watch that happen
466
00:18:24,451 --> 00:18:25,884
over and over and over.
467
00:18:25,919 --> 00:18:27,619
So when that opportunity
presented itself
468
00:18:27,654 --> 00:18:30,054
for the second time,
I took it.
469
00:18:30,090 --> 00:18:31,868
Because I knew
it would never come along again.
470
00:18:31,892 --> 00:18:33,636
- You don't know that, Mike.
- I do know that.
471
00:18:33,660 --> 00:18:35,627
So you can say no
if you want to,
472
00:18:35,662 --> 00:18:37,695
but don't say
I haven't changed.
473
00:18:37,731 --> 00:18:39,564
Because the Mike you met
that night in prison
474
00:18:39,599 --> 00:18:41,966
never would have told you
the truth just now.
475
00:18:44,671 --> 00:18:46,604
Julius, please.
476
00:18:50,410 --> 00:18:52,110
I need this.
477
00:18:55,916 --> 00:18:57,382
This is the address.
478
00:18:57,417 --> 00:18:59,150
It's tomorrow at 9:00.
479
00:19:02,622 --> 00:19:04,722
I don't have anyone else.
480
00:19:17,158 --> 00:19:18,375
Mike, hey.
481
00:19:18,376 --> 00:19:20,577
Harvey, tell me
you got some good news.
482
00:19:20,612 --> 00:19:22,645
I do.
I took care of Seidel.
483
00:19:22,681 --> 00:19:24,414
He's still gonna back you.
484
00:19:24,449 --> 00:19:26,015
I'm not talking about Seidel.
485
00:19:26,051 --> 00:19:27,528
I'm talking about getting Gibbs
off that committee.
486
00:19:27,552 --> 00:19:28,918
It's not that simple.
487
00:19:28,954 --> 00:19:30,453
What's not that simple
about it?
488
00:19:30,488 --> 00:19:33,389
I haven't found
anything on him yet.
489
00:19:33,425 --> 00:19:35,758
Harvey, I am struggling
to get someone on my side,
490
00:19:35,794 --> 00:19:37,572
and every second
that she is on that committee
491
00:19:37,596 --> 00:19:39,662
she is turning people
against me.
492
00:19:39,698 --> 00:19:41,564
I need your help.
493
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,834
Mike, I told you
I'd get it done.
494
00:19:44,869 --> 00:19:46,603
I'll get it done.
495
00:19:50,075 --> 00:19:51,741
Anything?
No.
496
00:19:51,776 --> 00:19:53,776
It's the same as when
you called an hour ago.
497
00:19:53,812 --> 00:19:54,777
If he killed someone
and hid the body,
498
00:19:54,813 --> 00:19:56,679
nobody knows where it is.
499
00:19:56,715 --> 00:19:58,025
Then why don't you tell me
who's next on the list.
500
00:19:58,049 --> 00:19:59,449
Harvey, I have been at this
all day,
501
00:19:59,484 --> 00:20:01,250
and you said
we don't have much time.
502
00:20:01,286 --> 00:20:02,852
Why don't you just
bluff the guy
503
00:20:02,887 --> 00:20:04,420
into giving you
whatever you need?
504
00:20:04,456 --> 00:20:05,766
Because we've only got
one shot at this.
505
00:20:05,790 --> 00:20:07,056
The more information I have,
506
00:20:07,092 --> 00:20:10,593
the better chance
a bluff is gonna work.
507
00:20:10,629 --> 00:20:12,595
Harvey, what's going on?
508
00:20:12,631 --> 00:20:14,597
It isn't like you to stay in
and make phone calls
509
00:20:14,633 --> 00:20:17,233
instead of confronting someone
face-to-face.
510
00:20:20,405 --> 00:20:22,472
What if I can't do it
511
00:20:22,507 --> 00:20:24,073
and Mike doesn't
get into the Bar?
512
00:20:24,109 --> 00:20:25,575
How can you say that?
513
00:20:25,610 --> 00:20:28,611
You are the best poker player
I have ever seen.
514
00:20:28,647 --> 00:20:30,813
You can do it.
515
00:20:35,754 --> 00:20:39,055
I don't think you understand,
Donna.
516
00:20:39,090 --> 00:20:41,290
A bluff only works
if he's dirty.
517
00:20:41,326 --> 00:20:42,959
What if the guy
really is clean?
518
00:20:42,994 --> 00:20:45,294
Harvey, Gibbs got him
off the committee.
519
00:20:45,330 --> 00:20:47,096
He's not clean.
520
00:20:47,132 --> 00:20:48,865
Now, enough is enough.
521
00:20:48,900 --> 00:20:51,067
Go do what you do.
522
00:20:57,676 --> 00:21:01,044
Louis, you mind telling me
what this is?
523
00:21:01,079 --> 00:21:02,679
Where'd you get that?
524
00:21:02,714 --> 00:21:05,048
That is a lawsuit
against Donna's new business.
525
00:21:05,083 --> 00:21:06,716
I know what it is.
526
00:21:06,751 --> 00:21:08,095
Well, why haven't you told her
about it yet?
527
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,119
Because she's gonna think
that I blew it
528
00:21:10,155 --> 00:21:11,754
because I was upset about Tara.
529
00:21:11,790 --> 00:21:15,258
Louis, did you go full-blown
you on some poor bastard
530
00:21:15,293 --> 00:21:17,093
and ruin Donna's chance
at success?
531
00:21:17,128 --> 00:21:19,362
Gretchen, I went there
in good faith
532
00:21:19,397 --> 00:21:20,908
to get a settlement,
and I was ambushed.
533
00:21:20,932 --> 00:21:23,299
I swear.
Then you need to fix it.
534
00:21:23,334 --> 00:21:25,535
- I can't.
- Why not?
535
00:21:25,570 --> 00:21:27,704
Because I cannot
stop thinking about Tara.
536
00:21:27,739 --> 00:21:30,740
We got into a huge fight
537
00:21:30,775 --> 00:21:34,377
and I was...
such an asshole.
538
00:21:34,412 --> 00:21:36,979
So I went to apologize.
539
00:21:37,015 --> 00:21:38,893
She said she wasn't sure
she could stay with me,
540
00:21:38,917 --> 00:21:41,084
and I haven't heard
from her since.
541
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:42,930
So now instead of not knowing
how to fix things
542
00:21:42,954 --> 00:21:44,754
with one woman in my life,
543
00:21:44,789 --> 00:21:46,300
I don't know how
to fix things with the other.
544
00:21:46,324 --> 00:21:48,725
Louis, I was married
a long time.
545
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,894
And I'll tell you,
Carl and I had some doozies.
546
00:21:51,930 --> 00:21:53,763
Tell you the truth,
I wasn't always sure
547
00:21:53,798 --> 00:21:55,565
we were gonna pull through.
548
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,601
But we always did,
because we loved each other.
549
00:22:00,538 --> 00:22:02,572
What if she doesn't love me
anymore?
550
00:22:02,607 --> 00:22:05,174
It doesn't turn off
like that, Louis.
551
00:22:05,210 --> 00:22:07,410
And from where I'm standing,
552
00:22:07,445 --> 00:22:09,045
you're worth loving.
553
00:22:10,615 --> 00:22:13,583
Now, do you think
you can fix this thing
554
00:22:13,618 --> 00:22:16,519
or do you need me
to get us some help?
555
00:22:16,554 --> 00:22:19,789
I don't need any help.
556
00:22:19,824 --> 00:22:22,725
I'm gonna blow those guys
out of the water.
557
00:22:29,434 --> 00:22:31,033
- Walter Samson?
- Yes?
558
00:22:31,069 --> 00:22:33,236
I saw you out there.
First time playing?
559
00:22:33,271 --> 00:22:35,238
Sorry.
Do I know you?
560
00:22:35,273 --> 00:22:37,607
The question is,
how do you know Anita Gibbs?
561
00:22:37,642 --> 00:22:38,608
Because you gave her your seat
562
00:22:38,643 --> 00:22:39,987
on the Character
and Fitness Committee,
563
00:22:40,011 --> 00:22:41,644
and the woman
who prosecuted Mike Ross
564
00:22:41,679 --> 00:22:42,812
has no business being there.
565
00:22:42,847 --> 00:22:44,614
- Who's Mike Ross?
- I get it.
566
00:22:44,649 --> 00:22:46,449
We're going that way, huh?
567
00:22:46,484 --> 00:22:47,895
He's the reason
Gibbs strong-armed you
568
00:22:47,919 --> 00:22:49,619
into giving up that seat.
569
00:22:49,654 --> 00:22:51,232
I gave up that seat
because I wanted to spend
570
00:22:51,256 --> 00:22:52,822
more time with my family.
Bullshit.
571
00:22:52,857 --> 00:22:54,735
She found out whatever dirty
little secret you're hiding.
572
00:22:54,759 --> 00:22:56,592
If you don't come clean
with me,
573
00:22:56,628 --> 00:22:58,639
I'm gonna find out what it is
and I'm gonna squeeze harder.
574
00:22:58,663 --> 00:23:00,496
I don't know who you are,
but it must be nice
575
00:23:00,532 --> 00:23:02,598
living in a world where everyone
has a weak spot
576
00:23:02,634 --> 00:23:04,400
and is unethical,
but in this case,
577
00:23:04,435 --> 00:23:06,435
I took a leave of absence
and I replaced myself
578
00:23:06,471 --> 00:23:08,004
with a worthy attorney.
579
00:23:08,039 --> 00:23:10,706
So you can look for
a pressure point all you want.
580
00:23:10,742 --> 00:23:12,708
But I'm sorry to inform you,
581
00:23:12,744 --> 00:23:14,677
you're not gonna find one.
582
00:23:14,712 --> 00:23:17,547
You want to know who I am?
My name is Harvey Specter.
583
00:23:17,582 --> 00:23:19,348
And you can say you never
heard of Mike Ross,
584
00:23:19,384 --> 00:23:20,850
but I know you heard of me.
585
00:23:20,885 --> 00:23:22,518
So maybe she didn't
blackmail you.
586
00:23:22,554 --> 00:23:24,720
Maybe she promised
to do something for you.
587
00:23:24,756 --> 00:23:26,722
Either way,
I'm gonna find out what it is
588
00:23:26,758 --> 00:23:28,335
and you're gonna wish
you told me right now.
589
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:29,792
You think
you're showing strength.
590
00:23:29,828 --> 00:23:32,295
But intimidation
is only weakness.
591
00:23:32,330 --> 00:23:34,831
And for your information,
I never met Anita Gibbs
592
00:23:34,866 --> 00:23:38,701
until the day I appointed her
as my replacement.
593
00:23:44,676 --> 00:23:47,376
When I first met Mike Ross,
I thought he was like
594
00:23:47,412 --> 00:23:49,078
every other criminal
I work with:
595
00:23:49,113 --> 00:23:52,481
an entitled fraud who spent
his life cutting corners.
596
00:23:52,517 --> 00:23:55,451
But I'm here to tell you,
he went into prison one man,
597
00:23:55,486 --> 00:23:56,752
and he walked out another.
598
00:23:56,788 --> 00:23:58,487
And in
my professional opinion,
599
00:23:58,523 --> 00:24:01,324
he has the integrity to serve
his community as a lawyer.
600
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,326
While I don't doubt
your sincerity, Mr. Rowe,
601
00:24:03,361 --> 00:24:05,061
just because he was able
to fool you
602
00:24:05,096 --> 00:24:06,941
doesn't mean he's going to be
able to fool this board.
603
00:24:06,965 --> 00:24:08,898
It's Dr. Rowe.
604
00:24:08,933 --> 00:24:11,701
And I'm glad you were the one
who responded to my statement.
605
00:24:11,736 --> 00:24:13,576
- And why is that?
- Because you tried to paint
606
00:24:13,605 --> 00:24:15,271
a false picture of his release,
607
00:24:15,306 --> 00:24:16,584
and I'm here
to set the record straight.
608
00:24:16,608 --> 00:24:18,374
The record is straight.
609
00:24:18,409 --> 00:24:20,120
And you're not qualified to talk
about the deal that he made.
610
00:24:20,144 --> 00:24:23,112
- No, we're gonna hear this.
- Thank you.
611
00:24:23,147 --> 00:24:26,616
It's true Mr. Ross entered
into an early release agreement.
612
00:24:26,651 --> 00:24:29,752
But it's also true that he
stayed in longer than he had to
613
00:24:29,787 --> 00:24:31,520
to keep his cellmate safe.
614
00:24:31,556 --> 00:24:33,623
And while he was there,
he risked his own life
615
00:24:33,658 --> 00:24:36,292
to prevent a violent man
from falsely obtaining parole.
616
00:24:36,327 --> 00:24:37,526
And for all we know,
617
00:24:37,562 --> 00:24:39,528
he did that
for self-serving reasons.
618
00:24:39,564 --> 00:24:41,575
And for all I know, that's
what you're doing right now.
619
00:24:41,599 --> 00:24:42,765
You're out of line.
620
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:44,901
I'm not the one
under examination here.
621
00:24:44,936 --> 00:24:47,570
Neither am I.
I'm a prison psychologist.
622
00:24:47,605 --> 00:24:49,605
And in my experience,
self-serving men
623
00:24:49,641 --> 00:24:51,741
do not risk their lives
to help people.
624
00:24:51,776 --> 00:24:55,711
I don't call defrauding
your fellow man helping people.
625
00:24:55,747 --> 00:24:58,781
And I certainly don't call it
having integrity.
626
00:24:58,816 --> 00:25:00,549
With all due respect, ma'am,
627
00:25:00,585 --> 00:25:02,618
I'm done wasting my breath
on you
628
00:25:02,654 --> 00:25:05,254
because the purpose of
this hearing was to determine
629
00:25:05,290 --> 00:25:06,989
if Mike Ross had reformed.
630
00:25:07,025 --> 00:25:08,758
But you don't seem to be
interested in that
631
00:25:08,793 --> 00:25:10,426
because you've already
made your mind up.
632
00:25:10,461 --> 00:25:12,172
- Maybe I have.
- Then maybe you shouldn't be
633
00:25:12,196 --> 00:25:13,562
on this committee.
634
00:25:13,598 --> 00:25:17,266
Because as I said,
in my professional opinion,
635
00:25:17,302 --> 00:25:20,403
the world could use
a lawyer like Mike Ross.
636
00:25:20,438 --> 00:25:22,939
And if you're looking
for my personal opinion,
637
00:25:22,974 --> 00:25:24,840
he has more integrity
in his little finger
638
00:25:24,876 --> 00:25:27,576
than you have
in your whole body.
639
00:25:46,554 --> 00:25:47,580
Harvey,
where have you been?
640
00:25:47,581 --> 00:25:49,400
I've been trying
to level the playing field.
641
00:25:49,448 --> 00:25:51,214
That's the thing;
we just did.
642
00:25:51,250 --> 00:25:52,898
You should have seen Julius
up there.
643
00:25:52,899 --> 00:25:54,298
I mean,
if those members vote no
644
00:25:54,333 --> 00:25:55,732
after hearing what
he had to say--
645
00:25:55,767 --> 00:25:57,334
Doesn't matter
what he had to say.
646
00:25:59,304 --> 00:26:02,038
You haven't found a way
to get Gibbs off that committee.
647
00:26:02,074 --> 00:26:03,506
No.
648
00:26:10,549 --> 00:26:12,148
I'm sorry, Mike.
649
00:26:12,184 --> 00:26:13,917
You don't have to be sorry,
Harvey.
650
00:26:13,952 --> 00:26:18,154
She warned us that
she'd never let me into the Bar.
651
00:26:18,190 --> 00:26:19,823
We just didn't listen.
652
00:26:22,828 --> 00:26:24,294
Listen to me.
653
00:26:24,329 --> 00:26:26,629
This vote isn't
until tomorrow morning.
654
00:26:26,665 --> 00:26:28,142
There's still time for us
to think of something.
655
00:26:28,166 --> 00:26:30,867
You keep trying, Harvey.
656
00:26:30,902 --> 00:26:33,970
I got something else
I need to take care of.
657
00:26:39,177 --> 00:26:40,777
What's going on?
658
00:26:40,812 --> 00:26:42,790
Gretchen said you wanted
to talk to me about the patent.
659
00:26:42,814 --> 00:26:44,993
What are you guys doing here?
I went back to them, Donna.
660
00:26:45,017 --> 00:26:47,717
And the reason I asked
Stu and Benjamin to be here
661
00:26:47,753 --> 00:26:49,464
was so that you'd know
I didn't shit the bed.
662
00:26:49,488 --> 00:26:51,187
Are you telling me
you couldn't get them
663
00:26:51,223 --> 00:26:52,633
to back off the lawsuit?
He's telling you we won't
664
00:26:52,657 --> 00:26:54,002
be able to patent
The Donna at all.
665
00:26:54,026 --> 00:26:55,525
- What?
- Donna.
666
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,572
They weren't authorized
to let us partner with them.
667
00:26:57,596 --> 00:26:59,173
That's what I sent you
over there to take care of.
668
00:26:59,197 --> 00:27:00,842
I know, and then they said
they would fight us
669
00:27:00,866 --> 00:27:02,232
to the ends of the earth.
670
00:27:02,267 --> 00:27:03,967
So I pulled out every trick
in the book.
671
00:27:04,002 --> 00:27:06,336
And I got them
to make you an offer.
672
00:27:06,371 --> 00:27:07,804
An offer sounds like
a buyout.
673
00:27:07,839 --> 00:27:09,406
That's because
it is a buyout.
674
00:27:09,441 --> 00:27:11,141
With a special provision
that allows us
675
00:27:11,176 --> 00:27:12,620
to produce The Donna
for in-house use.
676
00:27:12,644 --> 00:27:13,843
That's not good enough.
677
00:27:13,879 --> 00:27:15,423
Donna, we're talking about
a lot of money.
678
00:27:15,447 --> 00:27:16,758
I don't care
about the money, Stu.
679
00:27:16,782 --> 00:27:18,415
I care that Louis didn't
fight for me.
680
00:27:18,450 --> 00:27:20,417
I did fight for you,
Donna, I swear.
681
00:27:20,452 --> 00:27:23,386
They got us dead to rights.
There's nothing more I can do.
682
00:27:23,422 --> 00:27:25,789
Bullshit. Louis Litt
does not roll over for anybody.
683
00:27:25,824 --> 00:27:26,834
He didn't roll over, Donna.
684
00:27:26,858 --> 00:27:28,002
I went over it with Benjamin,
685
00:27:28,026 --> 00:27:29,793
and we can't get
the overlap under 30%.
686
00:27:29,828 --> 00:27:31,806
I also ran it by my own attorney
and he was shocked
687
00:27:31,830 --> 00:27:33,463
at what Louis was able
to get us.
688
00:27:33,498 --> 00:27:36,833
So you're telling me
you want to take it?
689
00:27:36,868 --> 00:27:39,369
We do.
690
00:27:39,404 --> 00:27:41,438
But The Donna wouldn't even
exist without you,
691
00:27:41,473 --> 00:27:43,440
and we're partners,
so if you don't want to,
692
00:27:43,475 --> 00:27:45,375
then we won't.
693
00:27:51,216 --> 00:27:53,683
I'm gonna need
to think about it.
694
00:28:09,034 --> 00:28:11,501
- What's that?
- Liberty Rail.
695
00:28:11,536 --> 00:28:13,269
I tried to give it to you
once before.
696
00:28:13,305 --> 00:28:14,737
You wouldn't take it.
697
00:28:14,773 --> 00:28:16,084
You said it should come
without strings.
698
00:28:16,108 --> 00:28:18,241
Well, here it is.
No strings.
699
00:28:18,276 --> 00:28:20,110
It's still got strings,
and you know it.
700
00:28:20,145 --> 00:28:22,011
You want me to
let Mike in the Bar.
701
00:28:22,047 --> 00:28:25,081
I do, but I'm giving you this
whether you do that or not.
702
00:28:25,117 --> 00:28:26,916
Why would you do that?
703
00:28:26,952 --> 00:28:29,252
Because I'm hoping
if I showed you I could change,
704
00:28:29,287 --> 00:28:31,488
maybe you'd believe
he could too.
705
00:28:35,727 --> 00:28:38,695
You for him.
706
00:28:38,730 --> 00:28:40,396
What?
707
00:28:42,534 --> 00:28:45,535
Tomorrow morning,
I'm going to ask Mike
708
00:28:45,570 --> 00:28:49,272
if anyone knew he was a fraud
while he was at Pearson Specter.
709
00:28:49,307 --> 00:28:52,509
He admits you knew,
I'll let him in the Bar.
710
00:28:52,544 --> 00:28:54,110
I do that,
they'll kick me out.
711
00:28:54,146 --> 00:28:55,979
That's what
"you for him" means.
712
00:28:56,014 --> 00:28:58,381
You said
you'd do it for him once.
713
00:28:58,416 --> 00:29:00,717
This is your chance to put
your money where your mouth is.
714
00:29:00,752 --> 00:29:01,985
He won't go for it.
715
00:29:02,020 --> 00:29:04,154
He wants to be a lawyer
so bad he can taste it.
716
00:29:04,189 --> 00:29:06,956
You can make him go for it.
717
00:29:06,992 --> 00:29:09,726
Just remember,
718
00:29:09,761 --> 00:29:11,794
you didn't like being
too late last time.
719
00:29:11,830 --> 00:29:14,364
You're not too late this time.
720
00:29:18,603 --> 00:29:21,771
Good. You're both here.
Thanks for staying.
721
00:29:21,806 --> 00:29:23,417
Of course we stayed.
Your message said it was urgent.
722
00:29:23,441 --> 00:29:24,774
What's going on?
723
00:29:24,809 --> 00:29:26,409
Is there a problem
with the settlement?
724
00:29:26,444 --> 00:29:28,322
No. I gave Oliver my word
that I'd tell you the truth,
725
00:29:28,346 --> 00:29:30,813
so...I'm here
to tell you the truth.
726
00:29:30,849 --> 00:29:33,183
- Truth about what?
- I made a deal.
727
00:29:33,218 --> 00:29:35,785
A quid pro quo that
we would handle the miners' case
728
00:29:35,820 --> 00:29:38,788
in exchange for the chance
to be admitted to the Bar.
729
00:29:38,823 --> 00:29:40,757
Are you goddamn kidding me?
730
00:29:40,792 --> 00:29:43,793
I asked you point blank
if something was going on,
731
00:29:43,828 --> 00:29:45,795
and you lied to my face?
Nathan, I'm sorry.
732
00:29:45,830 --> 00:29:46,941
But I didn't want to tell you
733
00:29:46,965 --> 00:29:48,798
until there was
something to tell.
734
00:29:48,833 --> 00:29:49,799
You weren't going to tell me
until you got away with it.
735
00:29:49,834 --> 00:29:51,267
No, I wasn't.
736
00:29:51,303 --> 00:29:52,268
But as it turns out,
I'm not gonna get away with it,
737
00:29:52,304 --> 00:29:53,870
and I'm telling you anyway.
738
00:29:53,905 --> 00:29:55,872
- You're fired.
- Nathan, please--
739
00:29:55,907 --> 00:29:57,552
I don't give a shit what's
about to come out of your mouth.
740
00:29:57,576 --> 00:29:58,775
Clean out your office.
741
00:29:58,810 --> 00:30:00,944
Never show your face
around here again.
742
00:30:00,979 --> 00:30:03,046
Wait. Don't do it.
743
00:30:03,081 --> 00:30:04,614
Did you hear what he said?
744
00:30:04,649 --> 00:30:05,815
He lied.
Not once, not twice--
745
00:30:05,850 --> 00:30:07,483
I don't care,
because we need him.
746
00:30:07,519 --> 00:30:09,452
- We don't need him--
- Sophia needed him,
747
00:30:09,487 --> 00:30:11,554
and she got me,
and look what happened.
748
00:30:11,590 --> 00:30:14,624
Yeah, Nathan, that was some
shady shit he pulled,
749
00:30:14,659 --> 00:30:15,937
but you gotta be blind
if you can't see
750
00:30:15,961 --> 00:30:17,560
that he actually cares.
751
00:30:17,596 --> 00:30:19,240
And I don't remember us
beating down a place
752
00:30:19,264 --> 00:30:21,397
like Velocity Data
before he got here.
753
00:30:21,433 --> 00:30:23,411
So if it's all the same to you,
I'd like him to stay.
754
00:30:23,435 --> 00:30:24,845
Well, it's not all the same
to me, Oliver.
755
00:30:24,869 --> 00:30:26,669
It's up to me.
756
00:30:26,705 --> 00:30:29,038
Not to the person that kept it
from me as much as Mike did.
757
00:30:29,074 --> 00:30:32,008
He didn't keep it from you,
Nathan.
758
00:30:32,043 --> 00:30:34,377
He said that if I didn't
tell you, he would.
759
00:30:34,412 --> 00:30:36,179
So here I am.
760
00:30:36,214 --> 00:30:40,483
And I know I don't have a leg
to stand on, but...
761
00:30:40,518 --> 00:30:42,885
I'd like to stay.
762
00:30:46,925 --> 00:30:48,658
Monday morning,
you better start
763
00:30:48,693 --> 00:30:50,037
putting your money
where your mouth is
764
00:30:50,061 --> 00:30:52,662
and find us
another $50,000 case.
765
00:31:05,810 --> 00:31:09,145
- Louis, do you have a minute?
- Sure, Harvey.
766
00:31:09,180 --> 00:31:10,880
I don't know how much you know
767
00:31:10,915 --> 00:31:12,326
about what's going on
with Mike's hearing.
768
00:31:12,350 --> 00:31:13,816
Enough to know
that look on your face
769
00:31:13,852 --> 00:31:15,518
means it's not going well.
It's not.
770
00:31:15,553 --> 00:31:16,953
And I may have a way
to change it,
771
00:31:16,988 --> 00:31:18,688
but I wanted to run it
by my partner first,
772
00:31:18,723 --> 00:31:21,291
because it may mean
that I need a little time off.
773
00:31:21,326 --> 00:31:23,059
What do you mean,
"a little time off"?
774
00:31:23,094 --> 00:31:24,894
I mean Gibbs
offered me a deal.
775
00:31:24,929 --> 00:31:27,864
Mike goes on record admitting
I knew he was a fraud,
776
00:31:27,899 --> 00:31:29,332
she'll vote
to let him in the Bar.
777
00:31:29,367 --> 00:31:30,900
Are you insane?
778
00:31:30,935 --> 00:31:32,702
You do that, it won't be
a little time off.
779
00:31:32,737 --> 00:31:33,870
You'll get disbarred.
780
00:31:33,905 --> 00:31:35,705
And by then,
he'll be a lawyer.
781
00:31:35,740 --> 00:31:38,341
And we can argue that he said
that just to appease Gibbs.
782
00:31:38,376 --> 00:31:40,877
Bullshit. You do this, two
out of three names on that wall
783
00:31:40,912 --> 00:31:42,957
will be gone, and I won't be
able to keep this firm going.
784
00:31:42,981 --> 00:31:44,981
And if you can't,
we'll have done it for Mike.
785
00:31:45,016 --> 00:31:46,082
Zane will hire you.
786
00:31:46,117 --> 00:31:47,884
I don't want to go to Zane's.
787
00:31:47,919 --> 00:31:49,530
I want to do
what we said we were gonna do
788
00:31:49,554 --> 00:31:50,998
and rebuild this place together.
Louis, I owe him.
789
00:31:51,022 --> 00:31:52,822
Well, what about
what you owe me?
790
00:31:52,857 --> 00:31:54,535
You said we were partners.
We are partners.
791
00:31:54,559 --> 00:31:55,999
Which is why
I came to you with this.
792
00:31:56,027 --> 00:31:58,961
No, you didn't come
to ask my permission.
793
00:31:58,997 --> 00:32:00,841
You came to tell me
that you were gonna do this.
794
00:32:00,865 --> 00:32:01,964
And what if I did?
795
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,633
Then you're not
just an asshole.
796
00:32:03,668 --> 00:32:05,112
You're an idiot,
because there's no way
797
00:32:05,136 --> 00:32:06,814
Mike Ross ever agrees
to trading you for him.
798
00:32:06,838 --> 00:32:08,971
- Well, I'll make him agree.
- No, you won't.
799
00:32:09,007 --> 00:32:10,340
Mike.
800
00:32:10,375 --> 00:32:11,452
Harvey, whatever deal
she's offering you,
801
00:32:11,476 --> 00:32:12,909
I'm not gonna take it.
802
00:32:12,944 --> 00:32:13,988
You don't even know
what it is.
803
00:32:14,012 --> 00:32:15,812
I don't care what it is.
804
00:32:15,847 --> 00:32:17,325
I'm not getting into the Bar if
it means getting you kicked out.
805
00:32:17,349 --> 00:32:18,815
Mike, she wants me.
She always has.
806
00:32:18,850 --> 00:32:20,950
No, Harvey.
She wants both of us.
807
00:32:20,985 --> 00:32:23,152
And she's not going to stop
until she gets both of us.
808
00:32:23,188 --> 00:32:24,954
- You don't know that.
- Yes, I do.
809
00:32:24,989 --> 00:32:26,222
And if you don't get that,
810
00:32:26,257 --> 00:32:28,024
then she's got you
right where she wants you.
811
00:32:28,059 --> 00:32:29,826
So you're just gonna
sit there tomorrow
812
00:32:29,861 --> 00:32:31,661
and let her
take everything away from you?
813
00:32:31,696 --> 00:32:32,995
She's not
taking anything away.
814
00:32:33,031 --> 00:32:34,997
She's keeping things
exactly the way they are.
815
00:32:35,033 --> 00:32:36,833
You mean working
for that clinic.
816
00:32:36,868 --> 00:32:39,902
Harvey, I'm lucky to still
have a job at that clinic.
817
00:32:39,938 --> 00:32:41,804
So tomorrow morning,
I'm gonna go in there
818
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,006
with my head held high.
819
00:32:44,042 --> 00:32:46,175
But what I'm not gonna do
820
00:32:46,211 --> 00:32:48,978
is let her strip you
of everything that you are.
821
00:32:55,253 --> 00:32:57,820
Harvey, he's right.
822
00:32:57,856 --> 00:32:59,922
Let it go.
823
00:33:11,786 --> 00:33:12,874
Whatever it is,
Donna...
824
00:33:12,875 --> 00:33:14,619
Harvey, I know you're
in a rough place right now,
825
00:33:14,643 --> 00:33:17,362
but whatever's gonna happen
with Mike is gonna happen.
826
00:33:17,363 --> 00:33:19,063
You've done everything you can.
827
00:33:19,098 --> 00:33:21,532
And I'm tired of putting
my wants on hold.
828
00:33:21,568 --> 00:33:23,167
What is it?
829
00:33:23,203 --> 00:33:25,169
You know about my product
with Benjamin.
830
00:33:25,205 --> 00:33:26,671
I do.
831
00:33:26,706 --> 00:33:29,507
Well, it turns out
we have a 32.5% overlap
832
00:33:29,542 --> 00:33:32,210
on our software
with another company's.
833
00:33:32,245 --> 00:33:34,345
They refused to budge,
and Louis said
834
00:33:34,380 --> 00:33:38,049
he pulled out every trick
in the book to get us this.
835
00:33:42,222 --> 00:33:46,123
- Can you get it under 30%?
- No.
836
00:33:46,159 --> 00:33:49,060
Then take the money.
837
00:33:49,095 --> 00:33:51,062
I don't want the money.
838
00:33:51,097 --> 00:33:54,131
- Donna--
- I want something more.
839
00:33:54,167 --> 00:33:55,600
And I've never said that
out loud,
840
00:33:55,635 --> 00:33:58,769
but I can't pretend
that's not true anymore.
841
00:34:01,874 --> 00:34:04,542
What do you mean "more"?
842
00:34:04,577 --> 00:34:07,578
I don't know.
843
00:34:11,684 --> 00:34:14,819
I guess I'm gonna have to
figure that out.
844
00:34:23,263 --> 00:34:24,595
Good night, Harvey.
845
00:34:24,631 --> 00:34:27,198
I'll see you
tomorrow at the hearing.
846
00:34:35,475 --> 00:34:37,875
Mr. Ross, we are prepared
to hear your final statement.
847
00:34:37,910 --> 00:34:40,711
Before we do,
I have one last question.
848
00:34:40,747 --> 00:34:42,847
Mr. Ross, you say
you're a changed man
849
00:34:42,882 --> 00:34:44,682
and you care about the truth.
850
00:34:44,717 --> 00:34:47,918
But I want to know if you're
capable of telling the truth.
851
00:34:47,954 --> 00:34:50,254
So I'm going to ask you
a question
852
00:34:50,290 --> 00:34:52,857
and I suggest that you consider
your answer very carefully,
853
00:34:52,892 --> 00:34:55,559
because as far as I'm concerned,
your answer will determine
854
00:34:55,595 --> 00:34:59,063
whether or not
you become a lawyer.
855
00:34:59,098 --> 00:35:02,867
During your time
at Pearson Specter Litt,
856
00:35:02,902 --> 00:35:05,303
did anyone there
have knowledge of the fact
857
00:35:05,338 --> 00:35:07,738
that you were a fraud?
858
00:35:11,911 --> 00:35:15,546
Mr. Ross.
Did anyone else know?
859
00:35:18,718 --> 00:35:19,784
I knew.
860
00:35:22,221 --> 00:35:23,921
And if you're looking
for a scalp,
861
00:35:23,956 --> 00:35:25,523
you can have mine.
862
00:35:25,558 --> 00:35:28,492
But I was under the impression
that this hearing
863
00:35:28,528 --> 00:35:30,561
was not about my old firm,
but whether or not
864
00:35:30,596 --> 00:35:34,065
Mr. Ross should be a lawyer.
865
00:35:34,100 --> 00:35:35,666
I say he should.
866
00:35:35,702 --> 00:35:37,168
It doesn't matter
what you say.
867
00:35:37,203 --> 00:35:39,103
He's already had someone
testify for him.
868
00:35:39,138 --> 00:35:40,871
I'm not here to talk
about him.
869
00:35:40,907 --> 00:35:42,707
I'm here to talk
about someone else.
870
00:35:42,742 --> 00:35:43,952
Someone else
has nothing to do with this--
871
00:35:43,976 --> 00:35:45,409
I'd like to hear this.
872
00:35:45,445 --> 00:35:48,212
15 years ago,
a young woman was arrested
873
00:35:48,247 --> 00:35:51,615
for illegally obtaining
prescription drugs.
874
00:35:51,651 --> 00:35:53,784
Turns out she had chronic pain
875
00:35:53,820 --> 00:35:55,553
and didn't want
to drop out of med school,
876
00:35:55,588 --> 00:35:57,321
possibly never to return.
877
00:35:57,357 --> 00:36:00,391
So she stole
a couple of prescription pads
878
00:36:00,426 --> 00:36:02,393
from the hospital
where she was interning--
879
00:36:02,428 --> 00:36:05,796
a crime with a mandatory
sentence of seven years.
880
00:36:05,832 --> 00:36:09,367
But instead of throwing the book
at her,
881
00:36:09,402 --> 00:36:11,836
the prosecuting attorney
showed mercy,
882
00:36:11,871 --> 00:36:14,905
had the charges knocked down
to a misdemeanor,
883
00:36:14,941 --> 00:36:18,008
recommended probation,
and sealed the records.
884
00:36:18,044 --> 00:36:20,544
That's a touching story,
but I don't see
885
00:36:20,580 --> 00:36:22,758
what a random attorney has to do
with these proceedings.
886
00:36:22,782 --> 00:36:24,749
She's not talking
about a random attorney.
887
00:36:24,784 --> 00:36:27,184
She's talking about me.
888
00:36:27,220 --> 00:36:29,987
But just because
I showed compassion once
889
00:36:30,022 --> 00:36:31,989
doesn't mean he deserves it now.
890
00:36:32,024 --> 00:36:33,591
Maybe he doesn't.
891
00:36:33,626 --> 00:36:35,760
But that young woman
is now an ER doctor.
892
00:36:35,795 --> 00:36:37,695
She saves lives.
893
00:36:37,730 --> 00:36:42,199
And the world's a better place
because you saved hers.
894
00:36:42,235 --> 00:36:45,569
Thank you, Ms. Pearson.
Mr. Ross?
895
00:36:51,244 --> 00:36:55,012
I don't think
I can add anything to that.
896
00:36:55,047 --> 00:36:57,381
I've made my case.
897
00:36:57,417 --> 00:36:59,150
I leave the choice to you.
898
00:37:00,853 --> 00:37:03,120
Then this hearing
has concluded.
899
00:37:03,156 --> 00:37:06,223
We will deliberate and let you
know our decision by day's end.
900
00:37:06,259 --> 00:37:07,992
Thank you.
901
00:37:19,272 --> 00:37:21,005
So what do we do now?
902
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,085
They said they would let us
know by the end of the day.
903
00:37:23,109 --> 00:37:24,608
So we wait.
904
00:37:24,644 --> 00:37:26,088
Well, it is the end
of the day, which means...
905
00:37:26,112 --> 00:37:28,078
It doesn't mean anything,
Louis.
906
00:37:28,114 --> 00:37:30,426
Whatever's going on in there,
Seidel's gonna fight like hell.
907
00:37:30,450 --> 00:37:33,417
It's not gonna
make a difference.
908
00:37:33,453 --> 00:37:35,319
She's never gonna
change her mind.
909
00:37:35,354 --> 00:37:38,222
- I think she will.
- What do you mean?
910
00:37:38,257 --> 00:37:41,058
I mean that story
wasn't any old story,
911
00:37:41,093 --> 00:37:42,693
and that woman
wasn't really a woman.
912
00:37:42,728 --> 00:37:44,929
It was a man
named Joseph O'Neal.
913
00:37:44,964 --> 00:37:48,165
And it was
Walter Samson's godson.
914
00:37:48,201 --> 00:37:50,501
- So she did call in a favor.
- Yeah, she did.
915
00:37:50,536 --> 00:37:52,937
Then we need to get her
kicked off that board.
916
00:37:52,972 --> 00:37:54,705
No, Harvey. We don't.
917
00:37:54,740 --> 00:37:55,951
Because I didn't fly
all the way down here
918
00:37:55,975 --> 00:37:57,508
to strong-arm that woman.
919
00:37:57,543 --> 00:37:59,310
And I know the story
of the wind and the sun.
920
00:37:59,345 --> 00:38:00,556
What the hell
are you talking about?
921
00:38:00,580 --> 00:38:02,346
She's talking
about Aesop's fable.
922
00:38:02,381 --> 00:38:03,959
Which basically says
that if you want to get a man
923
00:38:03,983 --> 00:38:06,517
to take off his coat,
you don't blow it off.
924
00:38:06,552 --> 00:38:09,286
You make him feel warm, and
he'll take it off on his own.
925
00:38:09,322 --> 00:38:11,121
That's not a strategy;
it's a prayer.
926
00:38:11,157 --> 00:38:13,691
Louis, I already admitted
that I knew about Mike,
927
00:38:13,726 --> 00:38:16,494
and I reminded her
of her own compassion.
928
00:38:16,529 --> 00:38:19,363
That's the best
we're going to do.
929
00:38:19,398 --> 00:38:20,476
You know they could
disbar you for that.
930
00:38:20,500 --> 00:38:22,066
In New York, they might.
931
00:38:22,101 --> 00:38:24,802
In Chicago,
nobody's gonna care.
932
00:38:24,837 --> 00:38:26,203
Thank you, Jessica.
933
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:27,972
Don't thank me.
Thank Harvey.
934
00:38:28,007 --> 00:38:30,875
He's the one that called me.
935
00:38:30,910 --> 00:38:32,443
It's Seidel.
936
00:38:33,846 --> 00:38:35,412
Hello.
937
00:38:39,185 --> 00:38:41,318
I'll tell him.
938
00:38:41,354 --> 00:38:43,587
Thanks for calling.
939
00:38:47,593 --> 00:38:48,559
You're in.
940
00:38:52,031 --> 00:38:55,599
Oh, my God.
941
00:38:55,635 --> 00:38:57,635
It happened.
942
00:39:02,041 --> 00:39:04,608
I'm gonna go get us
some champagne.
943
00:39:04,644 --> 00:39:08,779
Thank you so much.
944
00:39:08,814 --> 00:39:11,148
Thank you for flying in.
945
00:39:11,183 --> 00:39:13,617
I wouldn't miss this
for the world.
946
00:39:25,231 --> 00:39:27,064
Hey.
947
00:39:27,099 --> 00:39:29,833
You said you had to go to
the bathroom a half hour ago,
948
00:39:29,869 --> 00:39:31,969
but you never came back
for your champagne.
949
00:39:32,004 --> 00:39:34,204
I know.
950
00:39:34,240 --> 00:39:36,473
Louis, what's wrong?
951
00:39:36,509 --> 00:39:38,475
You never asked me
how it went with Tara,
952
00:39:38,511 --> 00:39:40,177
telling her about Mike.
953
00:39:40,212 --> 00:39:42,079
I'm so sorry.
954
00:39:42,114 --> 00:39:44,582
I just got caught up
with the hearing.
955
00:39:44,617 --> 00:39:47,017
The thing is, I...
956
00:39:47,053 --> 00:39:48,419
I told her.
957
00:39:48,454 --> 00:39:50,588
We got into a huge fight.
958
00:39:50,623 --> 00:39:52,823
And she said
she needed to think about
959
00:39:52,858 --> 00:39:54,592
whether or not
she could forgive me.
960
00:39:54,627 --> 00:39:56,026
- And?
- She just called
961
00:39:56,062 --> 00:39:57,862
when Harvey was
giving us the news about Mike.
962
00:39:57,897 --> 00:40:01,332
Left a 15-second voicemail.
I'm afraid to listen to it.
963
00:40:01,367 --> 00:40:02,700
Louis...
964
00:40:02,735 --> 00:40:04,279
She's either gonna tell me
that she never wants
965
00:40:04,303 --> 00:40:07,204
to see me again
or she wants to make up.
966
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,440
Do you want me to listen
for you?
967
00:40:09,475 --> 00:40:13,210
No. But I'd like it if
you stay with me while I do.
968
00:40:13,245 --> 00:40:14,878
Of course.
969
00:41:15,408 --> 00:41:16,507
What's that?
970
00:41:16,542 --> 00:41:18,375
I wanted to give you
a present.
971
00:41:18,411 --> 00:41:20,577
Your first year's salary
in advance.
972
00:41:20,613 --> 00:41:22,513
Welcome back.
Harvey, I'm running out
973
00:41:22,548 --> 00:41:24,092
of ways to tell you I don't want
to be a corporate lawyer.
974
00:41:24,116 --> 00:41:25,516
Before you answer,
975
00:41:25,551 --> 00:41:27,351
you might want to take
a look at this check.
976
00:41:27,386 --> 00:41:29,131
- You're trying to bribe me.
- I'm trying to close you.
977
00:41:29,155 --> 00:41:30,954
- I told you--
- Yeah, I get it.
978
00:41:30,990 --> 00:41:32,122
You want to do good.
979
00:41:32,158 --> 00:41:33,724
Well,
you really want to do good?
980
00:41:33,759 --> 00:41:35,359
Donate half of this
to the clinic.
981
00:41:35,394 --> 00:41:36,927
You'll fund the place
for a year.
982
00:41:36,962 --> 00:41:38,140
Oh, so that's what you think
I'm all about.
983
00:41:38,164 --> 00:41:39,897
Just giving money.
No.
984
00:41:39,932 --> 00:41:41,977
But I think you're about more
than just working at that place.
985
00:41:42,001 --> 00:41:44,034
And you know it.
What are you talking about?
986
00:41:44,070 --> 00:41:47,604
I'm offering you a deal.
One for you, one for me.
987
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:51,041
You can save the spotted owls,
stop global warming,
988
00:41:51,077 --> 00:41:53,777
and help as many damsels
in distress as you like.
989
00:41:53,813 --> 00:41:56,480
And the good news is,
you'll be doing it from here.
990
00:41:56,515 --> 00:41:58,193
What makes you think
I'd take you up on that?
991
00:41:58,217 --> 00:41:59,550
Because here's the thing,
Mike.
992
00:41:59,585 --> 00:42:01,652
You wanna be here,
and you know it.
993
00:42:01,687 --> 00:42:03,187
- That's not true--
- Uh-uh.
994
00:42:03,222 --> 00:42:05,656
I saw the look on your face
when you strong-armed Palmer
995
00:42:05,691 --> 00:42:08,992
and you took on Seidel and
every other talented attorney
996
00:42:09,028 --> 00:42:11,195
you've beaten over the years.
997
00:42:11,230 --> 00:42:12,196
And I told you this once before.
998
00:42:12,231 --> 00:42:13,597
This is the major leagues.
999
00:42:13,632 --> 00:42:15,232
You don't get
this feeling anywhere else.
1000
00:42:15,267 --> 00:42:17,935
And I'm offering you
the best of both.
1001
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:29,713
Why are you giving me
a peace sign?
1002
00:42:29,749 --> 00:42:31,448
- Double it.
- What?
1003
00:42:31,484 --> 00:42:32,894
I don't wanna just fund
the clinic for a year.
1004
00:42:32,918 --> 00:42:34,551
I wanna fund it for two.
1005
00:42:34,587 --> 00:42:36,553
And while we're at it,
I want some left over
1006
00:42:36,589 --> 00:42:38,700
for a little something nice
for me and the wife-to-be.
1007
00:42:38,724 --> 00:42:40,958
- That's all it's gonna take?
- Oh, not even close.
1008
00:42:40,993 --> 00:42:42,726
I wouldn't have it
any other way.
1009
00:42:42,762 --> 00:42:44,239
Any case I want to bring
the clinic on to, I can.
1010
00:42:44,263 --> 00:42:45,629
Done.
1011
00:42:45,664 --> 00:42:47,642
Anyone I want to bring over
from the clinic, I can.
1012
00:42:47,666 --> 00:42:50,234
Louis doesn't get a say,
you don't get a say,
1013
00:42:50,269 --> 00:42:53,103
no Harvard rule.
Done.
1014
00:42:53,139 --> 00:42:56,206
And there's one more thing,
and you're not gonna like it.
1015
00:42:56,242 --> 00:42:58,308
You are not getting
my office.
1016
00:42:58,344 --> 00:43:00,043
