1
00:00:02,403 --> 00:00:04,405
I'm talking about the both
of us convincing Hardman
2
00:00:04,489 --> 00:00:06,491
that two kick-ass
junior partners are worth
3
00:00:06,574 --> 00:00:08,701
as much as one
new senior partner.
4
00:00:08,785 --> 00:00:10,995
You had the chance
to triple our business
5
00:00:11,079 --> 00:00:12,789
and all you had to do
was take a knee.
6
00:00:12,872 --> 00:00:14,165
Tell me right now
you weren't the one
7
00:00:14,249 --> 00:00:15,834
that gave Fletcher Engines
my game plan.
8
00:00:15,917 --> 00:00:17,669
Hardman told me he wasn't going
to make you partner anyway.
9
00:00:17,752 --> 00:00:19,462
And once he offered it to me,
all I had to do was...
10
00:00:19,546 --> 00:00:20,547
Sell me out.
11
00:00:20,630 --> 00:00:22,549
Mike's pro bono is
against some prison.
12
00:00:22,674 --> 00:00:24,634
And guess who builds those prisons.
I gave him my word.
13
00:00:24,717 --> 00:00:27,011
And you once gave your word
to me and went back on it.
14
00:00:27,095 --> 00:00:29,347
I had to lie
to Harvey's face.
15
00:00:29,430 --> 00:00:30,598
You either go
and work at the clinic
16
00:00:30,682 --> 00:00:32,016
or you stay
at Pearson Specter.
17
00:00:32,100 --> 00:00:34,978
But you can't play them both for
fools and put me in the middle.
18
00:00:35,061 --> 00:00:36,980
I have a binding agreement
signed by his legal clinic
19
00:00:37,063 --> 00:00:38,356
stating they would
have no outside help
20
00:00:38,439 --> 00:00:39,858
from Pearson Specter Litt
on this case.
21
00:00:39,941 --> 00:00:40,942
Yet they did.
22
00:00:41,025 --> 00:00:42,527
You convinced me
the only way to heal
23
00:00:42,610 --> 00:00:44,487
was to keep this from
happening to someone else.
24
00:00:44,571 --> 00:00:46,698
And now, I have nothing.
25
00:00:46,781 --> 00:00:49,450
This isn't just about you
protecting your client's interests.
26
00:00:49,534 --> 00:00:50,910
It's about you
protecting yourself.
27
00:00:50,994 --> 00:00:54,122
Why don't you tell me
what's really going on here?
28
00:00:57,876 --> 00:00:59,043
That's it.
29
00:00:59,419 --> 00:01:01,546
They've had me
by the balls ever since.
30
00:01:01,629 --> 00:01:04,215
Jesus. How did you let yourself
get compromised like that?
31
00:01:04,299 --> 00:01:05,842
This is my situation,
Harvey.
32
00:01:05,925 --> 00:01:07,969
No, this is
the firm's situation,
33
00:01:08,052 --> 00:01:10,722
and we need to cut ties with those
bastards right the hell now.
34
00:01:10,805 --> 00:01:13,308
I don't believe this.
You're pulling rank after I open up to you?
35
00:01:13,391 --> 00:01:14,976
That's bullshit.
No, Alex.
36
00:01:15,226 --> 00:01:17,061
What's bullshit is
you letting yourself
37
00:01:17,145 --> 00:01:19,564
be put in that position
for the last five years.
38
00:01:19,647 --> 00:01:20,982
"Letting?"
Yeah, letting.
39
00:01:21,065 --> 00:01:23,735
And now, I got to get us out
because you did this to me.
40
00:01:23,818 --> 00:01:25,612
Well, as long as we're throwing blame around,
Harvey,
41
00:01:25,695 --> 00:01:27,405
I didn't do shit to you.
42
00:01:27,488 --> 00:01:28,948
You did this to me.
43
00:01:32,994 --> 00:01:33,995
All in.
44
00:01:35,330 --> 00:01:37,916
Not this time, brother.
I got you.
45
00:01:37,999 --> 00:01:39,000
Bullshit, you got me.
46
00:01:39,459 --> 00:01:41,461
Uh-huh.
I know how you play.
47
00:01:41,544 --> 00:01:43,129
You checked to open,
you got jack-10 at best.
48
00:01:43,212 --> 00:01:45,548
This is a bluff.
I'm calling.
49
00:01:45,632 --> 00:01:47,216
Do what you have to do.
50
00:01:50,845 --> 00:01:52,180
Kings over sevens,
motherfucker.
51
00:01:53,389 --> 00:01:54,766
Trip sevens, little man.
52
00:01:54,849 --> 00:01:56,768
Maybe you don't know
how I play after all.
53
00:01:57,477 --> 00:01:58,728
Uh-uh.
54
00:01:58,811 --> 00:02:00,688
You're on tilt.
You been on tilt all night.
55
00:02:00,772 --> 00:02:03,441
That was a stupid play and you know it.
What's going on with you?
56
00:02:07,695 --> 00:02:08,947
I was supposed
to make partner today,
57
00:02:09,030 --> 00:02:10,573
but Louis Litt
screwed me over.
58
00:02:10,657 --> 00:02:13,117
So, there,
that's why I'm pissed.
59
00:02:13,201 --> 00:02:15,703
Shit. I didn't know.
60
00:02:15,787 --> 00:02:17,246
Well, now, you do.
61
00:02:17,914 --> 00:02:18,915
I don't understand, Harvey.
62
00:02:18,998 --> 00:02:20,291
I thought you were Jessica
Pearson's guy over there.
63
00:02:20,375 --> 00:02:22,543
I thought so, too.
But she didn't have my back.
64
00:02:24,295 --> 00:02:25,672
Well, what if
I had your back?
65
00:02:25,755 --> 00:02:26,756
What are you talking about?
66
00:02:26,839 --> 00:02:29,258
I heard Tommy Bratton talking.
They're looking to bring someone in.
67
00:02:29,884 --> 00:02:31,844
You say the word,
I bet I can get you in as partner.
68
00:02:31,928 --> 00:02:32,929
What's in it for you?
69
00:02:33,012 --> 00:02:33,972
Bratton's about
to make an offer
70
00:02:34,055 --> 00:02:35,598
to some big-time
earner at Skadden.
71
00:02:36,140 --> 00:02:39,310
I say you and me go in there and
tell him two junior partners
72
00:02:39,394 --> 00:02:41,229
are a hell of a lot better
than one senior partner.
73
00:02:41,312 --> 00:02:43,815
Pass. Come on, Harvey.
At least think about it.
74
00:02:43,898 --> 00:02:44,899
I don't need
to think about it.
75
00:02:44,983 --> 00:02:46,567
I just went through
the same thing
76
00:02:46,651 --> 00:02:49,445
and the guy who proposed it ended
up stabbing me in the back.
77
00:02:49,529 --> 00:02:50,571
I wouldn't do that to you.
78
00:02:50,655 --> 00:02:52,323
Yeah, well,
I appreciate your offer,
79
00:02:52,407 --> 00:02:55,201
but I'm not going to give you
the opportunity.
80
00:02:55,660 --> 00:02:56,744
Now.
81
00:02:57,161 --> 00:03:00,373
You need me to stake you?
There's 300.
82
00:03:12,260 --> 00:03:13,428
Hey.
Hey.
83
00:03:13,511 --> 00:03:14,804
I heard about
what happened in court.
84
00:03:14,887 --> 00:03:16,889
I know you gave up the case,
Mike. I'm sorry.
85
00:03:16,973 --> 00:03:18,224
Rachel,
I gave the case up,
86
00:03:18,307 --> 00:03:19,851
because you reminded me
to be a man of my word.
87
00:03:19,934 --> 00:03:23,229
But, like I said,
I gave my word to Oscar Reyes first.
88
00:03:24,063 --> 00:03:26,149
What does that mean?
It means that I don't want to lie to you.
89
00:03:26,232 --> 00:03:28,568
And I don't want to lie
to Harvey, but...
90
00:03:30,069 --> 00:03:32,196
I'm going to get this case
opened in criminal court.
91
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:33,865
And for the record,
that does not violate
92
00:03:33,948 --> 00:03:35,199
the agreement
that I signed.
93
00:03:35,283 --> 00:03:37,410
So, you're going
to tell Harvey, right?
94
00:03:37,493 --> 00:03:39,871
If he asks me, I'll tell him.
But I'm not going to volunteer it.
95
00:03:39,954 --> 00:03:41,873
And I need to know if you're good with that.
Mike.
96
00:03:41,956 --> 00:03:44,000
Before you answer,
I want you to think about the fact
97
00:03:44,083 --> 00:03:46,544
that these guys
are extending sentences.
98
00:03:49,255 --> 00:03:52,258
What if it were me in there and it
was my sentence that got extended?
99
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,552
I just have one question.
100
00:03:55,178 --> 00:03:57,096
What if Harvey
asks me about it?
101
00:03:57,180 --> 00:03:58,598
Then you tell him the truth.
102
00:04:00,475 --> 00:04:03,186
Then, yeah.
I'm good with it.
103
00:04:06,856 --> 00:04:10,234
See the money,
wanna stay for your meal
104
00:04:10,318 --> 00:04:13,571
Get another piece of pie
for your wife
105
00:04:13,654 --> 00:04:16,783
Everybody wanna know
how it feel
106
00:04:16,866 --> 00:04:20,161
Everybody wanna see
what it's like
107
00:04:20,411 --> 00:04:23,456
I'll even eat a bean pie
I don't mind
108
00:04:23,790 --> 00:04:25,166
Me and missy is so early
109
00:04:25,249 --> 00:04:26,959
Busy, busy making money
110
00:04:27,335 --> 00:04:28,503
All right!
111
00:04:28,586 --> 00:04:32,965
All step back
I'm 'bout to dance
112
00:04:34,509 --> 00:04:35,510
The greenback boogie
113
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:50,858
What's this?
114
00:04:50,942 --> 00:04:52,777
I never thanked you
for allowing me into the Bar.
115
00:04:52,860 --> 00:04:53,986
And I figured you'd prefer
116
00:04:54,070 --> 00:04:55,446
a criminal case
to a fruit basket.
117
00:04:55,530 --> 00:04:56,739
This is a civil case.
118
00:04:56,823 --> 00:04:58,449
It was a civil case.
119
00:04:58,866 --> 00:05:00,118
But it doesn't have to be.
120
00:05:00,201 --> 00:05:01,828
That doesn't sound
like a gift to me.
121
00:05:01,911 --> 00:05:02,995
It sounds like
a favor for you.
122
00:05:03,079 --> 00:05:05,123
Anita, you said you were
about doing what's right.
123
00:05:05,206 --> 00:05:08,709
People are being kept in prison for money.
That's not right.
124
00:05:08,793 --> 00:05:09,836
If that's true,
125
00:05:09,919 --> 00:05:11,587
I wish there was something I
could do about it, but I can't.
126
00:05:11,712 --> 00:05:13,756
What do you mean, you can't?
You know what I mean.
127
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:15,967
Nobody wants to see me
spending my time
128
00:05:16,050 --> 00:05:17,718
getting bad guys
out of prison.
129
00:05:18,052 --> 00:05:20,096
And what if I told you
it was a criminal conspiracy
130
00:05:20,179 --> 00:05:22,140
between two
Fortune 500 companies?
131
00:05:22,223 --> 00:05:23,266
What are you talking about?
132
00:05:23,349 --> 00:05:24,350
I couldn't pursue the case,
133
00:05:24,433 --> 00:05:26,269
because we represent
another client
134
00:05:26,352 --> 00:05:27,645
who has
pressured me to drop it.
135
00:05:27,728 --> 00:05:30,481
And there's no way they did that
just to protect Reform Corp.
136
00:05:30,565 --> 00:05:31,774
Which means
they're in on it.
137
00:05:31,899 --> 00:05:33,901
Do you have any proof?
No. But...
138
00:05:33,985 --> 00:05:35,903
You bring me some
proof of a conspiracy
139
00:05:35,987 --> 00:05:37,822
and I'll pursue it.
That's the best I can do.
140
00:05:37,905 --> 00:05:39,532
Anita, I don't have
the resources to be...
141
00:05:39,615 --> 00:05:40,741
Not my problem.
142
00:05:47,081 --> 00:05:48,416
And another thing.
143
00:05:49,625 --> 00:05:51,586
Whatever you do
bring me has to be
144
00:05:51,669 --> 00:05:53,254
on the Reform Corp
side of the arrangement.
145
00:05:53,337 --> 00:05:56,507
Because if it isn't, you're breaking
privilege and I can't use any of it.
146
00:06:05,641 --> 00:06:06,642
Harvey.
147
00:06:08,144 --> 00:06:09,312
There's something
I want to tell you.
148
00:06:09,395 --> 00:06:10,521
But I need to know
if you're over
149
00:06:10,605 --> 00:06:12,148
what happened with Louis
and the promotion.
150
00:06:12,273 --> 00:06:14,317
I'm fine, Donna.
Good.
151
00:06:15,109 --> 00:06:17,153
Because I need to leave
work early tomorrow night.
152
00:06:17,236 --> 00:06:18,321
What for?
153
00:06:18,404 --> 00:06:19,989
It's my six-month
anniversary with Mark.
154
00:06:21,532 --> 00:06:23,034
What's that face?
Nothing.
155
00:06:23,117 --> 00:06:25,536
I guess I just didn't think
you were one of those people.
156
00:06:25,620 --> 00:06:26,579
What people?
157
00:06:26,662 --> 00:06:29,373
The people that celebrate their
niece's third-grade graduation
158
00:06:29,457 --> 00:06:30,499
like it was
the moon landing.
159
00:06:30,583 --> 00:06:31,792
And when was the last time
160
00:06:31,876 --> 00:06:33,377
you saw anyone seriously
for six months?
161
00:06:33,461 --> 00:06:35,213
I'm not the topic
of this conversation.
162
00:06:35,296 --> 00:06:36,297
How could you be?
163
00:06:36,380 --> 00:06:39,717
Because we're talking about a
mature and committed relationship.
164
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,178
You're right, Donna,
we are. Which is why...
165
00:06:44,055 --> 00:06:46,349
I got you a gift
to celebrate your anniversary.
166
00:06:52,897 --> 00:06:53,898
Harvey.
167
00:06:55,399 --> 00:06:58,236
This is very generous, but I can't accept it.
Why not?
168
00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:00,613
Because Mark planned
a special night for us.
169
00:07:00,696 --> 00:07:03,407
And how's he going to feel when I pull
out a gift card to help pay for it?
170
00:07:03,491 --> 00:07:05,159
That wasn't the idea.
I know.
171
00:07:05,243 --> 00:07:07,078
But if you really want
to give me a gift,
172
00:07:07,161 --> 00:07:10,373
promise you won't call or
interrupt me the entire night.
173
00:07:10,456 --> 00:07:12,333
I promise.
Thanks, Harvey.
174
00:07:14,669 --> 00:07:17,338
God damn it, Jeffrey, this is a place
of business, not a petting zoo.
175
00:07:17,421 --> 00:07:19,131
So, you either flush the
goldfish or you're fired.
176
00:07:19,215 --> 00:07:20,967
You don't have
the authority to do that.
177
00:07:21,050 --> 00:07:23,594
Section 207, paragraph
three of the by-laws.
178
00:07:23,678 --> 00:07:26,347
Insubordination to a partner
results in termination.
179
00:07:26,430 --> 00:07:28,266
This has nothing to do with
my fish and you know it.
180
00:07:28,349 --> 00:07:29,725
It's got everything
to do with that fish
181
00:07:29,809 --> 00:07:31,143
and I don't want to hear
another word about it.
182
00:07:31,185 --> 00:07:33,229
So, unless you want to say another word...
Louis.
183
00:07:33,312 --> 00:07:34,355
Can I talk to you
for a second?
184
00:07:34,438 --> 00:07:36,607
Hey, Jessica, we're just in the middle of...
Now.
185
00:07:41,487 --> 00:07:42,905
Yes?
What the hell do you think you're doing?
186
00:07:42,989 --> 00:07:46,200
I'm exercising my authority as
junior partner over that douche.
187
00:07:46,284 --> 00:07:47,285
By trying to kill his fish?
188
00:07:47,368 --> 00:07:48,786
No, by trying to keep
order in the bullpen.
189
00:07:48,869 --> 00:07:50,162
Jessica, Jeffrey's
work habits are not...
190
00:07:50,246 --> 00:07:51,872
It's because I didn't
call him junior partner.
191
00:07:51,956 --> 00:07:53,624
Shut up.
This has nothing to do with about how I feel
192
00:07:53,708 --> 00:07:56,085
about his stupid,
disrespectful, asshole fish.
193
00:07:56,502 --> 00:07:57,545
Louis.
194
00:07:58,754 --> 00:08:01,090
Have you considered therapy?
Why would I do that?
195
00:08:01,173 --> 00:08:03,259
That would be like Baryshnikov
taking dance lessons.
196
00:08:03,342 --> 00:08:05,136
Louis. Jessica,
shrinks are for pussies.
197
00:08:05,219 --> 00:08:06,721
Now, can I go back
to yelling at Jeffrey?
198
00:08:06,804 --> 00:08:08,639
Because these associates
need guidance and discipline.
199
00:08:08,723 --> 00:08:09,682
Listen to me, Louis.
200
00:08:09,765 --> 00:08:11,767
I stayed out of that whole
thing between you and Harvey
201
00:08:11,851 --> 00:08:13,227
because that was
Daniel's call.
202
00:08:13,311 --> 00:08:15,521
And you want to go off on the associates,
that's one thing.
203
00:08:15,604 --> 00:08:19,066
But you let this promotion go to your
head and you take it out on Harvey,
204
00:08:19,150 --> 00:08:20,735
I'm going to step
the hell back in.
205
00:08:21,986 --> 00:08:23,446
Jessica, you have my word
as junior partner.
206
00:08:23,529 --> 00:08:26,157
If there's any problem with Harvey,
it won't be because of me.
207
00:08:33,205 --> 00:08:34,457
I'm a little busy right now.
208
00:08:34,540 --> 00:08:36,167
Well, whatever it is,
put it to the side.
209
00:08:36,250 --> 00:08:38,794
Daniel wants you to work with
Louis on the Reinsdorf case.
210
00:08:39,754 --> 00:08:42,131
You got something to say,
Harvey, say it.
211
00:08:42,214 --> 00:08:43,424
Okay, I'll say it.
212
00:08:43,507 --> 00:08:45,801
You didn't have my back
when Hardman screwed me over.
213
00:08:45,885 --> 00:08:47,053
And now,
you're carrying his water
214
00:08:47,136 --> 00:08:48,471
while he tries
to humiliate me.
215
00:08:48,554 --> 00:08:50,139
I don't care
what he's doing.
216
00:08:50,222 --> 00:08:51,432
I care about
what I'm doing.
217
00:08:51,515 --> 00:08:53,017
Which is to see
if you can put that
218
00:08:53,100 --> 00:08:55,436
ego of yours aside
and play the long game.
219
00:08:55,519 --> 00:08:56,687
What the hell
are you talking about?
220
00:08:56,771 --> 00:09:00,358
Do you have any idea how many
times I had to smile and take it
221
00:09:00,441 --> 00:09:02,860
when Charles Van Dyke
pawned his work off on me?
222
00:09:02,943 --> 00:09:04,987
Or when Stanley Gordon
would call me into his office
223
00:09:05,071 --> 00:09:06,614
just so he could
ogle my ass when I left.
224
00:09:06,697 --> 00:09:07,865
That is not the same thing.
225
00:09:07,948 --> 00:09:09,492
Not to mention
when Schmidt would talk
226
00:09:09,575 --> 00:09:13,037
about "the blacks"
like he was living in 1950.
227
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,873
I sucked it up
for years, Harvey.
228
00:09:15,956 --> 00:09:17,249
Now, it's your turn.
229
00:09:17,625 --> 00:09:19,377
What if I won't?
Then you're not my guy.
230
00:09:19,460 --> 00:09:22,213
Because if you can't even pretend
to bend a knee to your rivals,
231
00:09:22,296 --> 00:09:25,299
it doesn't matter what you do to
get ahead of them in the future.
232
00:09:25,383 --> 00:09:27,843
They're going to see
you coming a mile away.
233
00:09:35,976 --> 00:09:37,561
Mr. Kreuger,
I appreciate you meeting me.
234
00:09:37,645 --> 00:09:40,564
This isn't Downton Abbey, Harvey,
it's a construction firm.
235
00:09:40,648 --> 00:09:43,192
Call me Pat or see yourself out.
Fair enough, Pat.
236
00:09:43,275 --> 00:09:46,612
I'm sure you know that a junior
partner at our firm broke his word.
237
00:09:47,655 --> 00:09:49,115
I think you're owed
an apology.
238
00:09:54,328 --> 00:09:57,248
Usually the clients pay the lawyers,
not the other way around.
239
00:09:57,331 --> 00:09:58,958
This is a unique situation.
240
00:09:59,041 --> 00:10:00,751
This looks a lot like you're
trying to pay me off.
241
00:10:00,835 --> 00:10:03,838
I'm trying to make things right
and allow you to move on.
242
00:10:05,131 --> 00:10:08,175
You want to know how to get
someone's best effort, Harvey?
243
00:10:08,259 --> 00:10:09,844
It's not paying them
the most money.
244
00:10:09,927 --> 00:10:13,222
It's making sure that their
interests are aligned with yours.
245
00:10:13,305 --> 00:10:16,183
And Alex Williams wants this
case to go away as much as I do.
246
00:10:16,267 --> 00:10:18,144
You don't need your interests
aligned anymore.
247
00:10:18,227 --> 00:10:19,437
This case is over.
248
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:20,771
Maybe it is.
249
00:10:20,855 --> 00:10:21,814
And maybe it isn't.
250
00:10:21,897 --> 00:10:24,817
But I've heard that
from your firm once before.
251
00:10:24,900 --> 00:10:27,862
And then, I believe
it was your own associate
252
00:10:27,945 --> 00:10:30,072
who opened the case again
in the first place.
253
00:10:30,156 --> 00:10:31,740
So, you see,
Harvey, it's not just
254
00:10:31,824 --> 00:10:33,784
Alex's interests that
are aligned with mine.
255
00:10:33,868 --> 00:10:34,910
It's yours.
256
00:10:35,911 --> 00:10:37,496
And I plan
to keep it that way.
257
00:11:00,060 --> 00:11:02,730
Let me guess.
You're here to go over my testimony.
258
00:11:02,813 --> 00:11:04,148
I already told you
I'm not giving you
259
00:11:04,231 --> 00:11:05,774
anything until
my daughter gets paid.
260
00:11:05,858 --> 00:11:06,942
That's not what
I'm here for, Frank.
261
00:11:07,026 --> 00:11:08,402
I need to know
if you know anything
262
00:11:08,486 --> 00:11:10,529
about a conspiracy
outside of Reform Corp.
263
00:11:10,613 --> 00:11:14,158
Conspiracy outside of...
What are you talking about?
264
00:11:14,241 --> 00:11:15,576
What the hell's
going on here?
265
00:11:16,911 --> 00:11:18,037
We got thrown off
the case.
266
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:19,663
What did you just say to me?
Frank.
267
00:11:19,747 --> 00:11:22,374
'Cause you came in here
promising my daughter a future.
268
00:11:22,458 --> 00:11:23,959
Now you're telling me
it's all a bunch of shit.
269
00:11:24,043 --> 00:11:25,169
It's not a bunch of shit.
270
00:11:25,252 --> 00:11:26,504
And I can get
the case reopened,
271
00:11:26,587 --> 00:11:29,256
but I need evidence of a conspiracy
with Masterson Construction.
272
00:11:29,340 --> 00:11:30,549
Then I can't help you.
273
00:11:30,633 --> 00:11:34,011
Because all I know is those are
the guys that put us all to work.
274
00:11:34,094 --> 00:11:36,180
Work? What are you
talking about?
275
00:11:36,263 --> 00:11:37,932
Those places
aren't like Danbury.
276
00:11:38,015 --> 00:11:40,267
We work our asses off
to build their prisons
277
00:11:40,351 --> 00:11:42,144
so they can put
more of us away.
278
00:11:42,561 --> 00:11:45,022
But if you're looking for a conspiracy,
there's not.
279
00:11:45,105 --> 00:11:48,192
They do it all out in the open.
Call it rehabilitation.
280
00:11:48,275 --> 00:11:50,319
Well, it may not have been hidden.
But something is.
281
00:11:51,153 --> 00:11:53,322
And I think you just pointed
me in the right direction.
282
00:11:56,242 --> 00:11:57,910
What the hell did you do?
What are you talking about?
283
00:11:57,993 --> 00:11:59,703
You went to Masterson
behind my back.
284
00:11:59,787 --> 00:12:01,539
I did what I told you
I was going to do.
285
00:12:01,622 --> 00:12:03,082
I got you into this mess.
I'm going to get you out.
286
00:12:03,165 --> 00:12:04,500
And all going
to Masterson does
287
00:12:04,583 --> 00:12:05,543
is put you
in their crosshairs.
288
00:12:05,626 --> 00:12:07,169
I'm already
in their crosshairs.
289
00:12:07,253 --> 00:12:08,629
And now that I know
what happened,
290
00:12:08,712 --> 00:12:10,214
I might as well have been
a part of it myself.
291
00:12:10,297 --> 00:12:11,715
Then maybe instead
of poking the bear,
292
00:12:11,799 --> 00:12:13,634
we should tell
Mike Ross the truth.
293
00:12:13,717 --> 00:12:14,718
What are you
talking about?
294
00:12:14,802 --> 00:12:16,720
We both know that Mike is not
going to let this thing go
295
00:12:16,804 --> 00:12:17,972
until he gets
to the bottom of it.
296
00:12:18,013 --> 00:12:20,224
Maybe if I just come clean...
Listen to me, Alex.
297
00:12:20,307 --> 00:12:21,433
You go to him with your story,
298
00:12:21,517 --> 00:12:23,727
you're going to give him a map
to what happened, a can of gas,
299
00:12:23,811 --> 00:12:25,980
and a match to light the
whole damn thing on fire.
300
00:12:27,189 --> 00:12:28,691
I hope you're right, Harvey.
301
00:12:28,774 --> 00:12:29,900
Because I've got a daughter.
302
00:12:29,984 --> 00:12:31,068
And if I didn't
take the chance
303
00:12:31,151 --> 00:12:32,152
to stop this thing
when I had it...
304
00:12:32,236 --> 00:12:34,113
I'm telling you, Alex,
he'll let it go.
305
00:12:42,246 --> 00:12:43,664
Harvey.
Louis.
306
00:12:43,747 --> 00:12:47,042
Jessica said Hardman wants us to
work on the Reinsdorf case together.
307
00:12:47,126 --> 00:12:48,085
She said the same thing
to me.
308
00:12:48,168 --> 00:12:51,130
Well, I'm here to help.
Not get in a fight.
309
00:12:51,213 --> 00:12:52,923
My feelings exactly.
Good.
310
00:12:53,007 --> 00:12:54,842
I thought we could start
by talking strategy.
311
00:12:56,010 --> 00:12:57,469
I'm sorry,
but are you first chair?
312
00:12:57,553 --> 00:12:58,929
No. You are.
But I just thought that...
313
00:12:59,013 --> 00:13:00,014
It doesn't matter
what you thought.
314
00:13:00,097 --> 00:13:02,725
Because our strategy is to go
after their general counsel.
315
00:13:03,309 --> 00:13:04,935
And when would you
like to depose this guy?
316
00:13:05,019 --> 00:13:07,104
Never. Because I'm going to
put that asshole on the stand
317
00:13:07,187 --> 00:13:09,440
and I'm going to crack him like
a piece of matzo on Passover.
318
00:13:09,523 --> 00:13:12,192
Louis, you put him on the
stand without deposing him,
319
00:13:12,276 --> 00:13:14,361
you'll be asking questions
you don't know the answers to.
320
00:13:14,445 --> 00:13:16,947
So what?
So, that's the number one rule of lawyering.
321
00:13:17,031 --> 00:13:18,324
Well, thank you,
F. Lee Bailey.
322
00:13:18,407 --> 00:13:19,658
And here I thought
the number-one rule
323
00:13:19,742 --> 00:13:21,160
was to know
your goddamn place.
324
00:13:21,243 --> 00:13:23,621
And I don't need to take advice
from a sixth-year associate.
325
00:13:23,704 --> 00:13:25,414
And I don't need to take
a loss on my record,
326
00:13:25,497 --> 00:13:27,124
because you're too insecure
to listen to reason.
327
00:13:27,207 --> 00:13:28,834
You know what, Harvey?
You don't need to take anything.
328
00:13:28,917 --> 00:13:30,544
Because you're not
in charge.
329
00:13:30,628 --> 00:13:31,795
So, it's up to you.
330
00:13:31,879 --> 00:13:34,381
You going to get onboard or you
going to go crying to Mama?
331
00:13:37,051 --> 00:13:38,510
You're right, Louis.
332
00:13:38,594 --> 00:13:40,721
You're the partner.
I'm just here to back you up.
333
00:13:43,682 --> 00:13:46,310
Donna, I want you to pull
whatever strings you have to
334
00:13:46,393 --> 00:13:49,313
to get the Reinsdorf trial
moved up to tomorrow.
335
00:13:49,396 --> 00:13:50,397
I'll get right on it.
336
00:13:50,481 --> 00:13:52,858
And one more thing.
Don't tell Louis.
337
00:13:52,941 --> 00:13:53,942
What?
338
00:13:54,026 --> 00:13:57,237
Harvey, Jessica said to bury the hatchet,
not stick it in Louis' back.
339
00:13:57,321 --> 00:13:59,239
Donna,
I went into his office in good faith,
340
00:13:59,323 --> 00:14:01,825
and it took him less than 30 seconds
to wave his title in my face.
341
00:14:01,909 --> 00:14:04,787
What does that have to do with putting
the firm's interests above your ego?
342
00:14:04,870 --> 00:14:07,498
Because when I brought up a
legitimate issue with his strategy,
343
00:14:07,581 --> 00:14:10,542
he shot me down with no other reason
than it came out of my mouth.
344
00:14:10,626 --> 00:14:13,212
I'm telling you, we don't do this,
we're going to lose.
345
00:14:14,630 --> 00:14:15,839
Look at me.
346
00:14:17,049 --> 00:14:18,842
Are you sure this is the right call?
Listen to me.
347
00:14:18,926 --> 00:14:21,762
Jessica wants me to play the long game,
and that's what I'm doing.
348
00:14:21,845 --> 00:14:24,515
I sat in there,
ate shit, and he bought it.
349
00:14:24,598 --> 00:14:27,184
So, now, tomorrow,
I'm going to win this thing
350
00:14:27,267 --> 00:14:29,436
and Jessica's going to
know she can count on me.
351
00:14:30,437 --> 00:14:31,563
All right.
352
00:14:31,980 --> 00:14:33,315
I'll move the court date.
353
00:14:34,191 --> 00:14:35,776
And I'll make sure
Louis doesn't find out.
354
00:14:42,282 --> 00:14:43,784
Harvey, good. You're here.
355
00:14:44,785 --> 00:14:46,036
We didn't get
a chance to talk about
356
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:47,705
what happened with you,
Alex and Mike.
357
00:14:47,788 --> 00:14:51,208
No, we didn't. And as a matter of fact,
I'm wondering where Mike is.
358
00:14:51,291 --> 00:14:53,544
Well, he was in earlier,
but then he left.
359
00:14:53,627 --> 00:14:56,922
But I'm guessing that's not really
the question you're asking.
360
00:14:57,005 --> 00:14:59,383
You want to know if he's somehow
still pursuing that case.
361
00:14:59,466 --> 00:15:01,009
And what if I do?
362
00:15:01,093 --> 00:15:03,554
I would say
from personal experience,
363
00:15:03,637 --> 00:15:06,473
don't ask a question unless you're
really ready to hear the answer.
364
00:15:14,189 --> 00:15:15,524
What the hell
do you think you're doing?
365
00:15:15,607 --> 00:15:17,651
Jessica, how did you know?
It doesn't matter how.
366
00:15:17,735 --> 00:15:19,653
What matters is I told you
to work it out with Louis.
367
00:15:19,737 --> 00:15:21,447
And right now,
he's sitting in his office
368
00:15:21,530 --> 00:15:23,157
with no idea
this case is starting.
369
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,659
Exactly.
I'm playing the long game, like you said.
370
00:15:25,743 --> 00:15:27,911
No, Harvey,
you're not playing anything.
371
00:15:27,995 --> 00:15:29,413
Because this case
is mine now.
372
00:15:29,496 --> 00:15:30,456
What?
You heard me.
373
00:15:30,539 --> 00:15:33,292
I gave you a direct order
and you spat in my face.
374
00:15:33,375 --> 00:15:34,668
Jessica, this is bullshit.
375
00:15:34,752 --> 00:15:37,254
I went in there
and he spat in my face.
376
00:15:37,337 --> 00:15:38,380
And I was willing
to take it.
377
00:15:38,464 --> 00:15:39,673
But what I'm not
willing to take
378
00:15:39,757 --> 00:15:41,216
is losing this thing
out of spite.
379
00:15:41,300 --> 00:15:43,719
And if you take this case right now,
you're going to lose,
380
00:15:43,802 --> 00:15:45,179
because you have no idea
what's going on with it.
381
00:15:45,262 --> 00:15:46,597
Maybe I will
and maybe I won't.
382
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,307
But sometimes, you have
to bench your quarterback
383
00:15:48,390 --> 00:15:49,892
to show him
who's running the team,
384
00:15:49,975 --> 00:15:51,393
whether you take
a loss or not.
385
00:15:51,477 --> 00:15:52,686
All rise.
386
00:15:52,770 --> 00:15:54,897
Time's up, Harvey.
Step aside.
387
00:15:54,980 --> 00:15:56,857
Jessica, please don't
do this to me in public.
388
00:15:56,940 --> 00:15:58,776
I'm not doing
anything to you.
389
00:15:58,859 --> 00:16:00,277
You did this to yourself.
390
00:16:01,862 --> 00:16:03,113
Do we have a problem,
Counselor?
391
00:16:03,197 --> 00:16:04,448
No, Your Honor,
we don't.
392
00:16:04,531 --> 00:16:06,867
My colleague is needed back at our firm.
I'm stepping in.
393
00:16:08,076 --> 00:16:10,037
In that case,
be seated, everyone.
394
00:16:10,621 --> 00:16:12,206
Court is now in session.
395
00:16:23,592 --> 00:16:25,052
Michael, why are you
closing the door?
396
00:16:25,135 --> 00:16:26,887
You know I'm uncomfortable
with obstructed exits.
397
00:16:26,970 --> 00:16:28,305
Because I need
to ask you something
398
00:16:28,388 --> 00:16:29,890
and I don't want
to be interrupted.
399
00:16:32,851 --> 00:16:34,937
Michael, you're asking me to
hack a government institution.
400
00:16:35,020 --> 00:16:37,481
I can't do that.
Look closely, Benjamin.
401
00:16:38,148 --> 00:16:41,652
It's a private corporation.
And I'm telling you, they're scumbags.
402
00:16:43,153 --> 00:16:44,988
What's it for?
403
00:16:45,072 --> 00:16:46,031
What do you mean?
404
00:16:46,114 --> 00:16:48,283
I mean, if you're asking me
to do something like this,
405
00:16:48,367 --> 00:16:49,743
I have to bill it to a case.
406
00:16:49,827 --> 00:16:51,370
And what if I asked you
not to?
407
00:16:51,453 --> 00:16:52,704
I would have to ask you why.
408
00:16:52,788 --> 00:16:54,665
I'm going against
Harvey's wishes.
409
00:16:56,166 --> 00:16:59,002
You asked me to do that once
before for a mock trial.
410
00:16:59,086 --> 00:17:00,921
And I need to know.
Is this mock or is it real?
411
00:17:01,004 --> 00:17:03,423
It's real.
And Harvey can't know.
412
00:17:10,097 --> 00:17:11,056
Harvey.
413
00:17:11,139 --> 00:17:12,599
I didn't think you ever
got south of Canal Street.
414
00:17:12,683 --> 00:17:15,602
Yeah, well, today,
I'm making an exception.
415
00:17:15,686 --> 00:17:17,187
Is that offer
still on the table?
416
00:17:17,271 --> 00:17:18,355
Are you serious?
417
00:17:18,438 --> 00:17:19,690
I'm here, aren't I?
418
00:17:19,773 --> 00:17:21,859
Then, hell, yeah,
it's still on the table.
419
00:17:21,942 --> 00:17:23,485
I'll talk to
Tommy Bratton right now.
420
00:17:23,569 --> 00:17:25,153
Well, when you talk to him,
421
00:17:25,237 --> 00:17:27,823
you tell him I'm only coming
over if he meets my demands.
422
00:17:27,906 --> 00:17:29,116
And what demands
would those be?
423
00:17:29,199 --> 00:17:31,368
I don't just want partner,
I want an office with a view.
424
00:17:31,451 --> 00:17:32,619
I want to eat
what I kill,
425
00:17:32,703 --> 00:17:35,455
and I want to get paid more than any
other junior partner in the firm.
426
00:17:35,956 --> 00:17:37,624
Those are some
pretty big asks.
427
00:17:37,708 --> 00:17:39,209
I can't guarantee
Bratton's going to say yes.
428
00:17:39,293 --> 00:17:42,129
You want to make partner on my coattails,
you make him say yes.
429
00:17:42,212 --> 00:17:43,213
Your coattails?
430
00:17:43,297 --> 00:17:45,132
I'm talking about me helping
you as much as you helping me.
431
00:17:45,215 --> 00:17:46,675
Then do what you said
you were going to do.
432
00:17:46,758 --> 00:17:48,969
Because if you can't make that happen,
they don't respect me.
433
00:17:49,052 --> 00:17:51,430
And I'm not coming to a place
where I'm not respected.
434
00:17:51,513 --> 00:17:52,514
Okay, Harvey.
435
00:17:52,598 --> 00:17:55,058
But if you want respect,
you need to show some damn respect.
436
00:17:55,142 --> 00:17:56,685
I go in and stick
my neck out for you,
437
00:17:56,768 --> 00:17:58,437
you don't come back
and say you'll consider it.
438
00:17:58,520 --> 00:17:59,980
It's a done goddamn deal.
439
00:18:01,315 --> 00:18:03,066
Okay, Alex,
you have my word.
440
00:18:03,150 --> 00:18:05,485
You get me everything
I'm asking for...
441
00:18:06,987 --> 00:18:08,655
I'm done
with Pearson Hardman.
442
00:18:12,659 --> 00:18:14,202
Jessica. Hey, how are you?
443
00:18:14,286 --> 00:18:16,204
Louis, remember
we talked about
444
00:18:16,288 --> 00:18:17,998
not abusing your power
with Harvey?
445
00:18:18,081 --> 00:18:20,208
Absolutely. And that's why I treated
him with the utmost respect.
446
00:18:20,292 --> 00:18:21,251
Well, if that's the case,
447
00:18:21,335 --> 00:18:23,962
then exactly why did he litigate
Reinsdorf behind your back?
448
00:18:24,046 --> 00:18:25,923
God damn it!
What the hell did he do?
449
00:18:26,006 --> 00:18:27,424
I'm not concerned
with what he did.
450
00:18:27,507 --> 00:18:28,592
I'm concerned
with what you did.
451
00:18:28,675 --> 00:18:30,344
Jessica, I swear
I was the perfect gentleman.
452
00:18:30,427 --> 00:18:32,429
But then, Harvey
questioned my leadership.
453
00:18:32,512 --> 00:18:33,931
In other words, he had
a better idea than you.
454
00:18:34,014 --> 00:18:35,682
Well, whether it was
or it wasn't,
455
00:18:35,766 --> 00:18:37,684
he didn't respect
the office of junior partner.
456
00:18:37,768 --> 00:18:40,020
Because there is no office
of junior partner, Louis.
457
00:18:40,103 --> 00:18:41,813
And the real problem here
isn't Harvey,
458
00:18:41,897 --> 00:18:43,523
it's that chip
on your shoulder.
459
00:18:43,607 --> 00:18:44,733
What chip?
460
00:18:45,817 --> 00:18:49,112
Louis, I need you to be at this
address tomorrow morning at 9:00 a.m.
461
00:18:49,196 --> 00:18:50,197
Why?
Because I believe
462
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,115
you will benefit
from therapy,
463
00:18:52,199 --> 00:18:53,367
and this man is the best
in the business.
464
00:18:53,825 --> 00:18:55,827
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Back the truck up, Jessica. Therapy?
465
00:18:55,911 --> 00:18:58,455
I'm the most stable,
secure man you ever met.
466
00:18:58,538 --> 00:18:59,498
And you fight me
on this,
467
00:18:59,581 --> 00:19:01,166
you'll be the most unemployed
man I've ever met.
468
00:19:01,249 --> 00:19:03,001
Do we understand
each other?
469
00:19:03,085 --> 00:19:04,753
Yeah. 9:00 a.m. it is.
470
00:19:04,836 --> 00:19:07,047
And Louis, when you walk
through that door,
471
00:19:07,130 --> 00:19:09,299
you're going to be tempted
to turn right the hell around.
472
00:19:09,383 --> 00:19:13,553
And I'm telling you,
if you want a future here, you won't.
473
00:19:20,811 --> 00:19:22,896
Hey, what are you doing here?
I thought you were in court all day.
474
00:19:22,980 --> 00:19:24,523
Well,
Jessica had other plans.
475
00:19:24,606 --> 00:19:25,983
Like booting me
off this case.
476
00:19:26,066 --> 00:19:27,150
What?
477
00:19:27,234 --> 00:19:30,320
She walked in there and threw me
out with my tail between my legs
478
00:19:30,404 --> 00:19:32,948
like I was a piece of shit
first-year associate.
479
00:19:33,031 --> 00:19:34,324
Listen to me.
You need to calm down
480
00:19:34,408 --> 00:19:35,909
so we can figure out
what we're going to do.
481
00:19:35,993 --> 00:19:36,994
I am calm.
482
00:19:37,077 --> 00:19:39,496
And I already took care of
what we're going to do.
483
00:19:39,579 --> 00:19:40,914
What are you talking about?
484
00:19:43,083 --> 00:19:44,209
I got us an offer
at Bratton Gould.
485
00:19:45,252 --> 00:19:46,878
If everything
goes like I think,
486
00:19:46,962 --> 00:19:48,088
we'll be there
by the end of the week.
487
00:19:48,171 --> 00:19:50,298
What? Harvey,
that doesn't make any sense.
488
00:19:50,382 --> 00:19:52,968
Jessica's your biggest fan.
She's always been in your corner.
489
00:19:53,051 --> 00:19:55,012
Was she in my corner
when Hardman promoted Louis?
490
00:19:55,095 --> 00:19:56,179
That's not fair.
That was his call.
491
00:19:56,263 --> 00:19:57,973
Well, whose call
was cutting my balls off
492
00:19:58,056 --> 00:19:59,307
in front of
the entire courtroom today?
493
00:19:59,391 --> 00:20:00,600
I don't care what she did.
494
00:20:00,684 --> 00:20:03,353
The woman paid for you to go to
law school out of her own pocket.
495
00:20:03,437 --> 00:20:04,730
The least you can do
is talk to her
496
00:20:04,813 --> 00:20:05,897
before you do
something like this.
497
00:20:05,981 --> 00:20:07,524
Donna, I tried
talking to her.
498
00:20:07,607 --> 00:20:09,526
But it doesn't matter.
It's too late.
499
00:20:09,609 --> 00:20:11,570
I gave Alex my word.
It's a done deal.
500
00:20:14,740 --> 00:20:17,576
Well, it may be
a done deal for you,
501
00:20:17,659 --> 00:20:19,327
but it isn't
a done deal for me.
502
00:20:19,411 --> 00:20:21,204
Donna.
I like it here, Harvey.
503
00:20:21,288 --> 00:20:22,831
And you can't just
make this kind of decision
504
00:20:22,914 --> 00:20:24,791
about my life without
running it by me first.
505
00:20:24,875 --> 00:20:26,835
If this is your way
of trying to get me to stay...
506
00:20:26,918 --> 00:20:29,171
I'm not trying to get
you to do anything.
507
00:20:29,254 --> 00:20:30,630
But I'm not just
going to follow you
508
00:20:30,714 --> 00:20:32,132
out the door without
thinking this through.
509
00:20:32,215 --> 00:20:33,925
What do you want, Donna?
You want an apology?
510
00:20:34,009 --> 00:20:36,553
Well, here it is.
I'm sorry I didn't consult with you.
511
00:20:36,636 --> 00:20:38,638
I don't want an apology,
Harvey.
512
00:20:39,389 --> 00:20:41,683
I wanted to talk this
thing through with you.
513
00:20:41,767 --> 00:20:43,935
Which, by the way,
is what you should have done with Jessica.
514
00:20:44,519 --> 00:20:47,731
Well, you know what, Donna?
I didn't come to you for advice.
515
00:20:47,814 --> 00:20:50,400
I came to tell you
to start packing.
516
00:20:50,484 --> 00:20:53,612
But if you don't want to come with me,
then don't come with me.
517
00:21:02,913 --> 00:21:04,331
Rachel, do you have a second?
518
00:21:05,082 --> 00:21:06,249
Of course.
519
00:21:06,333 --> 00:21:07,876
Mike went to prison
for me.
520
00:21:07,959 --> 00:21:09,920
I owe him,
and I know it.
521
00:21:10,962 --> 00:21:12,589
But he's not
the only guy I owe.
522
00:21:12,672 --> 00:21:14,424
And that guy's going to
have a serious problem
523
00:21:14,508 --> 00:21:18,178
if I stick my head in the sand pretending
Mike isn't who I know he really is.
524
00:21:18,470 --> 00:21:20,305
That's a shitty
situation to be in.
525
00:21:20,388 --> 00:21:21,431
Yeah, it is.
526
00:21:21,515 --> 00:21:22,557
So, I'm going
to ask you something,
527
00:21:22,641 --> 00:21:24,726
but I need you
to be honest with me.
528
00:21:26,186 --> 00:21:28,522
Is Mike still working on the
case against Reform Corp?
529
00:21:28,605 --> 00:21:29,606
He is.
530
00:21:29,689 --> 00:21:31,942
And for the record, Harvey,
he told me that if you asked,
531
00:21:32,025 --> 00:21:33,777
to tell you everything
you wanted to know.
532
00:21:33,860 --> 00:21:35,195
What exactly is he doing?
533
00:21:35,278 --> 00:21:37,781
He's trying to build a criminal
case to give to Anita Gibbs.
534
00:21:37,864 --> 00:21:39,032
Which he has
every right to do.
535
00:21:39,116 --> 00:21:41,785
Because the agreement he signed
only precluded a civil suit.
536
00:21:41,868 --> 00:21:43,036
Exactly.
537
00:21:44,371 --> 00:21:45,997
How far along is he?
I don't know.
538
00:21:46,081 --> 00:21:48,291
But, knowing Mike,
I'm sure he's a hell of a lot closer
539
00:21:48,375 --> 00:21:49,876
than he was this morning.
540
00:21:52,712 --> 00:21:55,465
What do you think?
Do you want to share a bottle of rosé?
541
00:21:56,550 --> 00:21:59,344
I think I remember what happened
the last time we did that.
542
00:21:59,469 --> 00:22:01,221
All the more reason
to get it then.
543
00:22:02,806 --> 00:22:04,349
I couldn't agree more.
544
00:22:04,432 --> 00:22:07,060
Good.
Now that that is decided...
545
00:22:11,106 --> 00:22:12,566
Happy anniversary.
546
00:22:20,198 --> 00:22:22,492
Shakespeare's sonnets.
Everyone is talking about this guy.
547
00:22:22,617 --> 00:22:24,828
Apparently,
he's all the rage right now.
548
00:22:26,037 --> 00:22:28,665
This was my favorite class in college.
How did you know?
549
00:22:28,748 --> 00:22:30,292
I do my homework.
550
00:22:31,168 --> 00:22:32,377
Thank you.
551
00:22:36,923 --> 00:22:38,091
What?
Nothing.
552
00:22:38,175 --> 00:22:40,510
It's just so nice to be with
a man who's so thoughtful
553
00:22:40,594 --> 00:22:41,845
after spending all day
with a man
554
00:22:41,928 --> 00:22:43,597
who doesn't even know
what the word means.
555
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:44,681
You're talking
about Harvey.
556
00:22:44,764 --> 00:22:46,266
He's leaving the firm
and he just assumed
557
00:22:46,349 --> 00:22:47,350
that I would
go with him.
558
00:22:47,434 --> 00:22:49,477
He didn't even think
to ask me first.
559
00:22:49,561 --> 00:22:51,813
We're celebrating tonight.
Let's not talk about Harvey.
560
00:22:51,897 --> 00:22:53,190
I'm not talking
about Harvey.
561
00:22:53,273 --> 00:22:55,901
I'm talking about my life,
and a huge decision that I have to make.
562
00:22:55,984 --> 00:22:57,861
Wait a second. You're actually
thinking about going with him,
563
00:22:57,944 --> 00:22:59,070
even after
the way he treated you?
564
00:22:59,154 --> 00:23:00,488
I don't know
what I'm going to do.
565
00:23:00,572 --> 00:23:02,949
Well, what if I said that I'd like
you to stay at Pearson Hardman?
566
00:23:03,033 --> 00:23:04,701
Why would you say that?
You know why.
567
00:23:04,784 --> 00:23:07,871
Because Harvey's like a silent
partner in our relationship.
568
00:23:07,954 --> 00:23:10,248
I mean, we can't even get through a
dinner without his name coming up.
569
00:23:10,332 --> 00:23:13,668
Mark, I specifically told him
not to interrupt us tonight
570
00:23:13,793 --> 00:23:16,963
so he wouldn't come up.
And yet, he came up anyway.
571
00:23:17,505 --> 00:23:18,506
Mark...
572
00:23:18,590 --> 00:23:20,550
Look, I don't pretend to be
as insightful as you are.
573
00:23:20,634 --> 00:23:23,511
But if you can't even
separate yourself from him
574
00:23:23,595 --> 00:23:25,847
when he's asking you
to leave a job that you love?
575
00:23:27,432 --> 00:23:29,851
It makes me wonder if it's really
the job you love, after all.
576
00:23:30,227 --> 00:23:31,353
What do you want
me to say, Mark?
577
00:23:31,436 --> 00:23:33,438
I want you to say that you're
not going to follow the guy
578
00:23:33,521 --> 00:23:35,482
wherever he goes
for the rest of your life.
579
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:38,818
I'm not going to say that.
580
00:23:41,154 --> 00:23:43,657
Okay, well, I guess
I have my answer, then.
581
00:24:00,799 --> 00:24:03,260
Rachel, you are not going to believe...
Mike, before you say anything,
582
00:24:03,343 --> 00:24:06,096
Harvey asked me if you were
still going after Reform Corp.
583
00:24:06,179 --> 00:24:07,222
And I told him
that you were.
584
00:24:07,347 --> 00:24:09,474
It doesn't matter, 'cause I got them.
What?
585
00:24:10,684 --> 00:24:12,936
Gallo told me
that Masterson was using
586
00:24:13,019 --> 00:24:14,938
Reform Corp's inmates
to build new prisons.
587
00:24:15,021 --> 00:24:16,898
Okay, but using inmates for
private companies is illegal.
588
00:24:16,982 --> 00:24:18,942
It would be.
Except five years ago,
589
00:24:19,025 --> 00:24:21,736
Alex Williams got a waiver from
the State Corrections Board
590
00:24:21,820 --> 00:24:24,322
allowing them to supplement
their workforce with inmates.
591
00:24:24,406 --> 00:24:25,490
So, where's the crime?
592
00:24:29,828 --> 00:24:31,288
Wait a second.
Why are Masterson's budgets
593
00:24:31,371 --> 00:24:32,747
on Reform Corp's
email server?
594
00:24:32,831 --> 00:24:35,166
More importantly,
why are the labor costs
595
00:24:35,250 --> 00:24:37,544
a fifth of what
they submitted to the State?
596
00:24:37,627 --> 00:24:38,837
Jesus.
597
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,256
Mike, they didn't just use the
inmates to supplement the workforce.
598
00:24:41,339 --> 00:24:42,424
The inmates
were the workforce.
599
00:24:42,507 --> 00:24:44,634
Which means Reform Corp is
not just extending sentences.
600
00:24:44,718 --> 00:24:46,261
They're defrauding the State
601
00:24:46,344 --> 00:24:48,805
and they're splitting the
profits with Masterson 50-50.
602
00:24:48,888 --> 00:24:51,057
Mike, where did you get all this?
What does that matter?
603
00:24:51,141 --> 00:24:53,476
It matters because
if it came from Masterson,
604
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,186
then Harvey can stop
Anita Gibbs from using it.
605
00:24:55,270 --> 00:24:56,771
Well, it didn't.
606
00:24:56,855 --> 00:24:58,481
Benjamin got it
from Reform Corp's server.
607
00:24:58,565 --> 00:25:00,734
Which means we can redact Masterson,
give it to Gibbs,
608
00:25:00,817 --> 00:25:02,402
and she can put
the pieces together herself.
609
00:25:02,485 --> 00:25:04,863
There is nothing
that Harvey can do about it.
610
00:25:05,864 --> 00:25:07,407
Mike, he could
fire you for this.
611
00:25:07,490 --> 00:25:10,160
Rachel, I've been torn up trying
to reconcile two parts of myself
612
00:25:10,243 --> 00:25:11,494
for as long as
I can remember.
613
00:25:11,578 --> 00:25:13,955
Pro bono versus
corporate law.
614
00:25:16,166 --> 00:25:18,293
If he lets me go,
then he lets me go.
615
00:25:28,428 --> 00:25:29,471
Hello?
616
00:25:33,058 --> 00:25:36,478
Hi. I'm Louis Litt.
I'm here for my 9:00 a.m. appointment.
617
00:25:39,147 --> 00:25:40,315
Hello?
618
00:25:41,149 --> 00:25:44,235
Yeah, Mr. Litt.
We've been expecting you.
619
00:25:47,197 --> 00:25:48,990
I'm sorry,
but did you just speak in a German accent?
620
00:25:49,574 --> 00:25:51,034
Please, taken "ze" seat.
621
00:25:51,117 --> 00:25:52,619
Holy shit,
you're a goddamn Nazi.
622
00:25:55,914 --> 00:25:56,915
What did you just
say to me?
623
00:25:56,998 --> 00:25:58,583
I said I'm not
going to sit here
624
00:25:58,666 --> 00:25:59,793
and talk to you
about the weather,
625
00:25:59,876 --> 00:26:01,503
let alone
my goddamn feelings.
626
00:26:01,586 --> 00:26:03,880
Thanks but no thanks,
Wienerschnitzel.
627
00:26:03,963 --> 00:26:05,799
Please. Louis.
628
00:26:06,966 --> 00:26:08,301
Just give me two minutes.
629
00:26:10,387 --> 00:26:11,596
Two minutes.
630
00:26:14,891 --> 00:26:17,894
First of all,
I take it you're Jewish.
631
00:26:17,977 --> 00:26:19,521
Yeah, I'm not comfortable
answering that right now.
632
00:26:19,604 --> 00:26:21,564
Well, it seems fairly clear,
based on the fact
633
00:26:21,648 --> 00:26:23,358
that you just
called me a Nazi.
634
00:26:23,441 --> 00:26:24,442
What's your point?
635
00:26:24,692 --> 00:26:26,528
Would it interest you to
know that I am Jewish, too?
636
00:26:26,611 --> 00:26:28,947
Yeah? Well, take out your circumcised
junk and maybe I'll believe you.
637
00:26:29,030 --> 00:26:30,490
I'm not going
to do that, Louis.
638
00:26:30,573 --> 00:26:33,535
But I will tell you
that my parents
639
00:26:33,618 --> 00:26:35,203
were both children
during the war.
640
00:26:37,122 --> 00:26:38,790
They survived
by fleeing the country
641
00:26:38,873 --> 00:26:41,167
and felt it their duty
to eventually return
642
00:26:41,251 --> 00:26:45,505
and raise both my sister and
myself as proud Germans and Jews.
643
00:26:45,797 --> 00:26:47,757
So, if you want to leave
because you don't like
644
00:26:47,841 --> 00:26:49,342
the way I speak,
I understand.
645
00:26:49,426 --> 00:26:52,554
But if not,
why don't you tell me what brings you here?
646
00:26:59,686 --> 00:27:04,232
I'm here, because no matter what I do,
nobody respects me.
647
00:27:07,777 --> 00:27:09,195
Jessica, we need to talk.
648
00:27:09,279 --> 00:27:10,280
We do.
649
00:27:10,363 --> 00:27:11,448
But if you're looking
for an apology...
650
00:27:11,531 --> 00:27:12,949
I'm not here
for an apology.
651
00:27:13,032 --> 00:27:14,617
I'm here to tell you
that I'm expecting
652
00:27:14,701 --> 00:27:16,327
a job offer
from Bratton Gould.
653
00:27:16,786 --> 00:27:20,331
You're expecting one
or you went looking for one?
654
00:27:20,415 --> 00:27:22,292
Does it matter?
It does to me.
655
00:27:22,375 --> 00:27:25,253
Then you should know I was offered a job,
I turned it down,
656
00:27:25,336 --> 00:27:26,921
and it was going
to stay turned down
657
00:27:27,005 --> 00:27:30,175
until you made it crystal clear
that you don't respect me.
658
00:27:30,258 --> 00:27:33,052
What I made clear
is that I call the shots.
659
00:27:33,136 --> 00:27:34,804
And if you don't see how that
helps you in the long run...
660
00:27:34,888 --> 00:27:36,556
Screw the long run.
661
00:27:37,557 --> 00:27:39,767
They're going to make me
a partner now.
662
00:27:41,227 --> 00:27:42,687
You won't even
go to bat for me.
663
00:27:42,770 --> 00:27:43,980
You know what, Harvey?
664
00:27:44,063 --> 00:27:46,107
I'm about done with your
little song and dance
665
00:27:46,191 --> 00:27:47,400
about how I don't
have your back.
666
00:27:47,484 --> 00:27:50,069
I picked you out
of the goddamn mailroom.
667
00:27:50,570 --> 00:27:53,239
And I've given you every
opportunity you ever had.
668
00:27:53,573 --> 00:27:55,867
This was a mistake.
What was a mistake?
669
00:27:55,950 --> 00:27:58,870
I came here to give you a chance
to talk me out of leaving.
670
00:27:58,953 --> 00:28:01,122
But when this offer
comes in, it's too late.
671
00:28:01,206 --> 00:28:03,249
Just out of curiosity,
what would you have me do?
672
00:28:03,333 --> 00:28:05,502
You know what the hell
I'd have you do.
673
00:28:06,753 --> 00:28:09,339
Harvey, you have
more raw talent
674
00:28:09,422 --> 00:28:12,050
than 99% of the partners
in this firm.
675
00:28:12,133 --> 00:28:14,344
But I'm not going to give you
a promotion based on a threat.
676
00:28:14,427 --> 00:28:15,678
You'll get one
when you're ready.
677
00:28:15,762 --> 00:28:18,515
And if that's not
good enough for you,
678
00:28:18,598 --> 00:28:20,600
then I wish you luck
at Bratton Gould.
679
00:28:20,892 --> 00:28:23,311
Then consider this
my official notice.
680
00:28:27,857 --> 00:28:29,859
Louis, we've spent
the last 40 minutes
681
00:28:29,943 --> 00:28:32,654
going over every person
who has shown you disrespect
682
00:28:32,737 --> 00:28:33,988
since the day
you were born.
683
00:28:34,197 --> 00:28:36,658
Are you kidding? I'm just getting started.
Be that as it may.
684
00:28:37,867 --> 00:28:40,912
If I ask you the one
person whose respect
685
00:28:40,995 --> 00:28:42,664
you crave the most,
who would it be?
686
00:28:42,747 --> 00:28:44,832
Don't dwell on it,
just say the first name
687
00:28:44,916 --> 00:28:46,000
that pops into your head.
688
00:28:46,084 --> 00:28:47,627
Harvey Specter.
Good.
689
00:28:48,002 --> 00:28:49,045
What's he like?
690
00:28:49,128 --> 00:28:51,506
He's like a cross between
Marlon Brando and Superman.
691
00:28:54,300 --> 00:28:55,385
What?
692
00:28:56,094 --> 00:28:57,804
I'm just picturing.
693
00:28:59,973 --> 00:29:02,141
This Harvey,
is he a friend?
694
00:29:02,225 --> 00:29:03,810
He's my best friend.
Hmm.
695
00:29:03,893 --> 00:29:05,645
And would he describe you
as his best friend?
696
00:29:06,479 --> 00:29:07,981
What the...
What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
697
00:29:08,064 --> 00:29:09,274
Louis.
You son of a bitch.
698
00:29:09,357 --> 00:29:11,734
You're implying that I'm not as good as him?
That I'm worthless?
699
00:29:11,818 --> 00:29:13,736
Well, you know what,
you Nazi supposed Jew?
700
00:29:13,820 --> 00:29:16,197
I don't need to take that from you.
I'm goddamn out of here!
701
00:29:16,281 --> 00:29:17,949
Louis, this is wonderful.
702
00:29:18,032 --> 00:29:19,367
What the hell
are you talking about?
703
00:29:19,450 --> 00:29:22,495
Most people take years
to reveal their true selves.
704
00:29:22,579 --> 00:29:25,540
But you... You are
like a man without skin.
705
00:29:25,623 --> 00:29:27,667
I can see
right through you.
706
00:29:27,750 --> 00:29:29,043
This is fantastic.
707
00:29:29,127 --> 00:29:30,837
How the hell
is this fantastic?
708
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:32,589
Because I can help you.
709
00:29:32,672 --> 00:29:35,091
Your feelings of disrespect
are internal.
710
00:29:35,174 --> 00:29:37,885
And you project them onto
the people in front of you.
711
00:29:37,969 --> 00:29:39,470
And in your life,
712
00:29:39,554 --> 00:29:41,931
those people throw that
disrespect back at you.
713
00:29:42,599 --> 00:29:45,685
Well, I'm not going to
do that to you.
714
00:29:45,768 --> 00:29:47,270
I'm going to be here for you.
715
00:29:47,353 --> 00:29:49,439
Well, that sounds like a load of crap.
Listen to me.
716
00:29:49,522 --> 00:29:52,150
If you keep treating the
people in your life like this,
717
00:29:52,233 --> 00:29:54,235
you're going to
push them away.
718
00:29:56,070 --> 00:29:57,488
You know what, Doc?
719
00:29:58,197 --> 00:29:59,907
Jessica made me come here.
720
00:30:00,700 --> 00:30:01,826
And I did.
721
00:30:02,368 --> 00:30:05,079
And now that I have,
it's crystal clear
722
00:30:05,163 --> 00:30:07,790
the last thing I need
in the world is therapy.
723
00:30:14,589 --> 00:30:16,799
Louis, calm down.
You're wearing a hole in the carpet.
724
00:30:16,883 --> 00:30:18,760
Well, I'm sorry, Donna.
Harvey called an emergency meeting.
725
00:30:18,885 --> 00:30:21,471
What do you expect?
I expect a little self-control.
726
00:30:21,554 --> 00:30:22,805
Good, you're here.
727
00:30:22,889 --> 00:30:24,349
Gretchen said it couldn't wait.
What's going on?
728
00:30:24,432 --> 00:30:25,850
I've got a move
I want to make.
729
00:30:25,933 --> 00:30:28,895
But before I do,
I want to put it to a vote.
730
00:30:28,978 --> 00:30:30,396
- What kind of move?
- A big one.
731
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:31,814
Harvey, does this
have something to do
732
00:30:31,898 --> 00:30:33,441
with the fight between you,
Alex, and Mike?
733
00:30:33,524 --> 00:30:36,027
Yes. And I have reason to
believe that fight's not over.
734
00:30:36,110 --> 00:30:37,111
Harvey, what's going on?
735
00:30:37,195 --> 00:30:39,322
Alex has a gun to his head and if
I don't do something about it,
736
00:30:39,405 --> 00:30:41,074
he's going to be
in some deep shit.
737
00:30:41,157 --> 00:30:43,826
I have a way out of it,
but there's going to be some consequences.
738
00:30:43,910 --> 00:30:44,994
For who?
For Mike.
739
00:30:45,078 --> 00:30:46,663
Harvey,
is there any other way out of this mess?
740
00:30:46,746 --> 00:30:48,748
If there were,
I wouldn't be standing here.
741
00:30:48,831 --> 00:30:51,501
Then tell us what you want to do
and let's get this over with.
742
00:30:56,631 --> 00:30:59,384
Don't tell me this is that
"two partners for the price of one" idea
743
00:30:59,467 --> 00:31:00,510
you pitched me
a year ago.
744
00:31:00,593 --> 00:31:03,763
It is, but Harvey Specter isn't
like any lawyer we've ever had.
745
00:31:03,846 --> 00:31:05,932
Well, he better not be
if he has the balls
746
00:31:06,015 --> 00:31:08,935
to ask for the moon
and stars like this.
747
00:31:09,018 --> 00:31:10,812
Look, the problem is,
I already have an offer out
748
00:31:10,895 --> 00:31:12,105
to a hot shot
at Skadden.
749
00:31:12,188 --> 00:31:13,523
And if he hasn't
already said yes,
750
00:31:13,606 --> 00:31:14,857
what the hell
is he waiting for?
751
00:31:14,941 --> 00:31:18,027
I'll tell you what.
He's afraid he can't hack it here.
752
00:31:18,111 --> 00:31:19,904
Or he's using us
to get a better offer.
753
00:31:19,987 --> 00:31:22,699
Either way, Harvey and I
are a better choice.
754
00:31:23,991 --> 00:31:25,702
All right, Alex.
755
00:31:25,785 --> 00:31:28,329
It looks like you two guys
have your shit together.
756
00:31:28,413 --> 00:31:29,580
But here's the thing.
757
00:31:29,664 --> 00:31:32,083
I pull this offer
and your guy says no,
758
00:31:32,166 --> 00:31:34,794
I'm left here with nothing
but my dick in my hand.
759
00:31:34,877 --> 00:31:39,048
So, you tell me right now you
guarantee that he says yes.
760
00:31:39,132 --> 00:31:41,676
You think I didn't know
you were going to demand that?
761
00:31:41,759 --> 00:31:43,928
I already talked
to him about it.
762
00:31:44,011 --> 00:31:45,555
He gave me his word.
763
00:31:46,681 --> 00:31:49,267
Okay, it looks like I have
two new partners.
764
00:31:50,810 --> 00:31:53,563
But, Alex,
this thing goes south,
765
00:31:53,646 --> 00:31:55,189
it's your ass
that's on the line.
766
00:32:06,409 --> 00:32:07,452
So, you having
a good coffee?
767
00:32:07,535 --> 00:32:09,412
Is that what we're doing
with our 11 o' clocks now?
768
00:32:09,495 --> 00:32:12,665
Louis... What the hell
is your problem?
769
00:32:12,749 --> 00:32:15,334
My problem is I found out
you moved my court date.
770
00:32:15,418 --> 00:32:16,711
So, why don't you go
tell your work husband
771
00:32:16,794 --> 00:32:19,380
if he thinks I'm going to forget about this,
he's got another thing coming.
772
00:32:19,464 --> 00:32:21,215
You know what, Louis?
Why don't you go tell him yourself?
773
00:32:21,299 --> 00:32:22,925
But you better hurry,
because as of Monday,
774
00:32:23,009 --> 00:32:24,427
Harvey doesn't
work here anymore.
775
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:26,721
What?
You heard me.
776
00:32:26,804 --> 00:32:29,223
Harvey's leaving,
my life is a mess,
777
00:32:29,307 --> 00:32:31,642
and as far as I'm concerned,
that's on you.
778
00:32:31,726 --> 00:32:32,852
Me? What do you mean, me?
779
00:32:32,935 --> 00:32:34,937
If you can't figure out
what I mean by that,
780
00:32:35,021 --> 00:32:36,939
then you may be
a good junior partner,
781
00:32:37,023 --> 00:32:39,692
but you got a long way
to go as a human being.
782
00:32:50,870 --> 00:32:52,955
What are you doing here?
What do you mean, what am I doing here?
783
00:32:53,039 --> 00:32:54,874
You wanted a conspiracy,
I got you one.
784
00:32:54,957 --> 00:32:56,834
I don't want
anything from you.
785
00:32:56,918 --> 00:32:58,461
And for the record,
I was a fool to think
786
00:32:58,544 --> 00:32:59,754
I could trust you
in the first place.
787
00:32:59,837 --> 00:33:01,297
Anita, I don't know what the
hell you're talking about.
788
00:33:01,380 --> 00:33:02,423
Don't play dumb with me.
789
00:33:02,507 --> 00:33:04,675
Pearson Specter doesn't
just represent Masterson,
790
00:33:04,759 --> 00:33:06,177
you also represent
Reform Corp.
791
00:33:06,636 --> 00:33:08,221
Which means
anything I get from you
792
00:33:08,304 --> 00:33:10,097
is tainted because
you broke privilege.
793
00:33:10,807 --> 00:33:12,558
God damn it.
Harvey must have just signed them.
794
00:33:12,642 --> 00:33:14,852
So, what you're saying
is Harvey was never onboard
795
00:33:14,936 --> 00:33:16,020
with this
in the first place?
796
00:33:16,103 --> 00:33:17,855
Anita, you can still
take this case, all right?
797
00:33:17,980 --> 00:33:20,066
You just say you received the evidence...
Anonymously?
798
00:33:20,149 --> 00:33:23,027
I don't think so, Mike.
And one more thing.
799
00:33:23,110 --> 00:33:26,155
The next time you're looking to involve
me in a war with Harvey Specter,
800
00:33:26,239 --> 00:33:27,490
go to someone else.
801
00:33:34,997 --> 00:33:36,749
Jessica,
I heard about Harvey.
802
00:33:36,833 --> 00:33:38,292
Louis, he made his choice.
803
00:33:38,376 --> 00:33:40,753
It's not the choice
that I wanted,
804
00:33:40,837 --> 00:33:42,171
but we're just going
to have to deal with it.
805
00:33:42,255 --> 00:33:43,798
Now, if you don't mind.
806
00:33:44,549 --> 00:33:46,300
Actually, I do mind.
807
00:33:48,761 --> 00:33:50,555
Jessica, this whole thing
was my fault.
808
00:33:51,055 --> 00:33:53,349
I put him in a position where he
had to leave and you know it.
809
00:33:53,432 --> 00:33:55,643
Louis, that's big of you, but...
But nothing.
810
00:33:55,726 --> 00:33:58,521
Dr. Lipschitz said when you
don't respect yourself,
811
00:33:58,604 --> 00:34:01,148
you go looking for signs
of disrespect in others.
812
00:34:01,232 --> 00:34:03,568
And the way I got
to junior partner...
813
00:34:06,946 --> 00:34:08,531
I don't respect myself
for that.
814
00:34:08,614 --> 00:34:09,699
What are you saying?
815
00:34:09,782 --> 00:34:11,909
I'm saying if it was
my pride in refusing
816
00:34:11,993 --> 00:34:13,786
to admit that he was right
and I was wrong
817
00:34:13,870 --> 00:34:16,455
that caused him to go,
I won't be able to forgive myself.
818
00:34:17,415 --> 00:34:19,792
So, please,
do not let him go.
819
00:34:24,422 --> 00:34:26,215
Louis.
Yeah.
820
00:34:28,634 --> 00:34:31,220
Did you mean what you
said the other day?
821
00:34:31,304 --> 00:34:33,848
About the associates needing
guidance and discipline?
822
00:34:33,931 --> 00:34:36,642
To tell you the truth,
I didn't at the time.
823
00:34:38,227 --> 00:34:39,437
But yes, they do.
824
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,063
Then, as the firm's
newest partner,
825
00:34:41,147 --> 00:34:44,650
how would you like to officially
be in charge of the associates?
826
00:34:47,153 --> 00:34:48,738
I'd like that very much.
827
00:34:49,488 --> 00:34:50,865
Treat them well.
828
00:34:51,949 --> 00:34:53,159
I will.
829
00:35:10,301 --> 00:35:11,636
Did you come here
to say goodbye?
830
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:13,596
Because I think
we already did that.
831
00:35:13,679 --> 00:35:14,764
No, Harvey.
832
00:35:14,847 --> 00:35:16,766
I came here to let
you know that I did
833
00:35:16,849 --> 00:35:19,018
what I should have done
in the first place.
834
00:35:20,311 --> 00:35:21,646
What exactly
does that mean?
835
00:35:21,729 --> 00:35:23,564
It means I just went
to see Daniel
836
00:35:23,648 --> 00:35:25,775
and I told him if the
next person we promote
837
00:35:25,858 --> 00:35:29,028
to junior partner
isn't you, I'm leaving.
838
00:35:30,905 --> 00:35:31,906
You did that for me?
839
00:35:31,989 --> 00:35:33,449
Sometimes
playing the long game
840
00:35:33,532 --> 00:35:35,201
means understanding
who you want to be
841
00:35:35,284 --> 00:35:36,911
teammates with
in the long run.
842
00:35:36,994 --> 00:35:41,374
And the person I want to be teammates
with in the long run is you.
843
00:35:42,500 --> 00:35:44,418
I hope I'm not
too late, Harvey.
844
00:35:44,502 --> 00:35:49,590
But if I am,
I really do wish you luck at Bratton Gould.
845
00:36:03,646 --> 00:36:05,940
Harvey,
Alex Williams just called.
846
00:36:06,023 --> 00:36:07,483
Says it's a done deal.
847
00:36:11,821 --> 00:36:14,198
For the record,
I would have gone with you.
848
00:36:14,281 --> 00:36:17,159
For the record,
I should have asked you first.
849
00:36:34,927 --> 00:36:36,804
Hello?
Dr. Lipschitz, it's Louis Litt.
850
00:36:36,887 --> 00:36:38,431
Listen, you were right.
851
00:36:39,515 --> 00:36:41,851
I do need someone who isn't
going to let me push them away.
852
00:36:41,934 --> 00:36:43,519
I'm very happy
to hear that, Louis.
853
00:36:43,602 --> 00:36:45,479
Do you think five days
a week is too much?
854
00:36:45,563 --> 00:36:49,358
Why don't we just start with an
appointment on Monday and go from there?
855
00:36:49,442 --> 00:36:50,443
Sounds good.
856
00:36:58,451 --> 00:37:00,036
What the hell
is wrong with you?
857
00:37:00,119 --> 00:37:01,370
Nothing's wrong with me.
858
00:37:01,454 --> 00:37:03,581
I ordered you to drop this thing.
You didn't.
859
00:37:03,664 --> 00:37:05,666
So, I figured out a way
to make you drop it.
860
00:37:05,750 --> 00:37:07,418
You think signing
Reform Corp's
861
00:37:07,501 --> 00:37:09,253
going to make this go away,
you're out of your mind.
862
00:37:09,336 --> 00:37:11,922
And if you think that's true,
you wouldn't be in my face right now.
863
00:37:12,006 --> 00:37:14,008
Harvey, they are
lining their pockets
864
00:37:14,091 --> 00:37:16,385
on the backs of people who
should have gone free years ago.
865
00:37:16,469 --> 00:37:17,720
And you're letting them
get away with it.
866
00:37:17,803 --> 00:37:19,638
I'm their lawyer.
I'm not a prosecutor.
867
00:37:20,264 --> 00:37:22,141
What the fuck does Alex Williams have on you,
huh?
868
00:37:22,266 --> 00:37:24,393
Nobody has anything on me.
Then why the hell are you doing this?
869
00:37:24,477 --> 00:37:25,811
Because there's no way
it's for the money.
870
00:37:25,936 --> 00:37:27,855
You don't understand.
I'll tell you what I do understand.
871
00:37:27,938 --> 00:37:30,107
You owe him something and
they have something on him.
872
00:37:30,191 --> 00:37:32,485
And if I can figure that out,
how long do you think it's going to take
873
00:37:32,568 --> 00:37:33,944
before whatever it is
gets out anyway?
874
00:37:34,028 --> 00:37:35,071
You listen to me.
875
00:37:35,154 --> 00:37:37,823
If you ever valued the times that
we've had each other's backs,
876
00:37:37,907 --> 00:37:40,034
you'll have mine now.
Because I'm telling you, I need it.
877
00:37:40,117 --> 00:37:41,577
Then tell me
what's going on.
878
00:37:41,660 --> 00:37:43,829
I'm not going to do that,
because I can't trust you.
879
00:37:43,913 --> 00:37:44,914
But I'll tell you this.
880
00:37:44,997 --> 00:37:46,415
You lift a finger
to do something
881
00:37:46,499 --> 00:37:48,959
that even looks like you're making
another move on this case...
882
00:37:49,043 --> 00:37:50,920
I don't care if you're
calling Oscar Reyes
883
00:37:51,003 --> 00:37:53,172
to wish him a happy birthday,
you're fired.
884
00:37:56,801 --> 00:37:58,094
So, why don't you take
the night and decide
885
00:37:58,177 --> 00:38:00,721
if you trust me enough
to keep working here or not.
886
00:38:15,152 --> 00:38:16,654
Hey, hey.
887
00:38:16,737 --> 00:38:19,115
You here to check out your new office?
Because it's ready.
888
00:38:19,198 --> 00:38:21,033
Alex, I'm staying
at Pearson Hardman.
889
00:38:21,492 --> 00:38:22,868
What?
890
00:38:22,952 --> 00:38:24,286
We had a deal.
I know that.
891
00:38:24,370 --> 00:38:25,955
But then, I realized
Jessica's family.
892
00:38:26,038 --> 00:38:27,790
And no title is worth
giving that up.
893
00:38:27,873 --> 00:38:29,125
I don't care
what you realized.
894
00:38:29,208 --> 00:38:31,460
I told Tommy Bratton
you signed on the dotted line.
895
00:38:31,544 --> 00:38:33,629
He pulled an offer to that
hotshot from Skadden for me.
896
00:38:33,712 --> 00:38:35,214
I know this puts you
in a bad spot.
897
00:38:35,297 --> 00:38:38,092
"Bad spot?" You stood in front of me,
gave me your goddamn word,
898
00:38:38,175 --> 00:38:39,426
and I banked on that.
899
00:38:39,510 --> 00:38:42,054
So, I don't care what kind of
come-to-Jesus moment you think you had.
900
00:38:42,138 --> 00:38:43,514
That shit is legally binding.
901
00:38:43,597 --> 00:38:46,016
And you want to try to enforce that,
go right ahead.
902
00:38:46,100 --> 00:38:47,309
But what does it say
to the world
903
00:38:47,393 --> 00:38:50,729
when a firm has to sue a lawyer
just to get him to come there?
904
00:38:50,813 --> 00:38:52,481
What's it say when I can't
trust you anymore?
905
00:38:52,565 --> 00:38:54,984
Alex, you don't need me
to make partner.
906
00:38:56,610 --> 00:38:59,238
Maybe I don't.
But this is some bullshit.
907
00:38:59,321 --> 00:39:00,531
I'm not saying it's not.
908
00:39:00,614 --> 00:39:03,075
And I know right now,
my word means nothing.
909
00:39:03,159 --> 00:39:04,827
But I promise you,
910
00:39:04,910 --> 00:39:07,413
someday, you're going to
need help with something.
911
00:39:08,747 --> 00:39:11,917
And no matter what it is,
I'll be there for you. I owe you one.
912
00:39:12,001 --> 00:39:13,169
And you can
let it go or not.
913
00:39:13,252 --> 00:39:15,087
But I'm telling you
man-to-man,
914
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:17,590
this is something
I have to do.
915
00:39:20,342 --> 00:39:21,552
Okay, Harvey.
916
00:39:22,303 --> 00:39:24,680
I'll let it go.
But you do owe me one.
917
00:39:25,306 --> 00:39:26,932
And someday,
I'm going to come calling.
918
00:39:43,324 --> 00:39:45,743
Harvey, I know
you want to help Alex.
919
00:39:46,911 --> 00:39:50,247
But if it means losing Mike,
then I have to ask. "Is it worth it?"
920
00:39:51,498 --> 00:39:52,875
Mike went to prison
for you.
921
00:39:52,958 --> 00:39:54,251
I know that, Donna.
922
00:39:57,922 --> 00:39:59,632
Harvey,
what did Alex do?
923
00:40:01,091 --> 00:40:02,593
Why do you owe him?
924
00:40:09,725 --> 00:40:10,726
Alex.
925
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:12,603
What are you doing here?
926
00:40:12,686 --> 00:40:14,146
I'm here
to come clean to you.
927
00:40:14,230 --> 00:40:15,648
Does Harvey know you're here?
No.
928
00:40:15,731 --> 00:40:17,399
In fact, he told me
not to talk to you at all.
929
00:40:17,483 --> 00:40:18,984
But you have a right
to know the truth and...
930
00:40:20,319 --> 00:40:22,988
I'm tired of having this whole
thing hang over my head.
931
00:40:23,989 --> 00:40:24,990
Come on in.
932
00:40:31,997 --> 00:40:35,542
After Alex told Bratton that I wasn't coming,
he was nothing.
933
00:40:35,626 --> 00:40:37,419
They gave him
unwinnable cases
934
00:40:37,503 --> 00:40:39,129
and worked him
90 hours a week,
935
00:40:39,213 --> 00:40:41,131
until one day,
Bratton came to him
936
00:40:41,215 --> 00:40:43,092
and said there was
a way back.
937
00:40:43,175 --> 00:40:45,886
All he had to do was take on
Masterson Construction as a client.
938
00:40:45,970 --> 00:40:47,596
Exactly.
And he said yes.
939
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,474
Of course I said yes.
There were no red flags.
940
00:40:50,557 --> 00:40:53,686
The waiver that put inmates to
work was just smart business.
941
00:40:54,687 --> 00:40:56,272
On the surface,
everything was legit.
942
00:40:56,355 --> 00:40:57,773
So, how did you
figure out it wasn't?
943
00:40:57,856 --> 00:41:01,068
One day, I was at Brunswick,
and a guard gave me a letter.
944
00:41:01,151 --> 00:41:03,279
It said an inmate
had died on the job site
945
00:41:03,362 --> 00:41:04,780
and that it was
being covered up.
946
00:41:04,863 --> 00:41:07,866
And let me guess,
you took it to Pat Kreuger, Masterson's CEO.
947
00:41:07,950 --> 00:41:10,244
And he said that
he'd look into it.
948
00:41:10,327 --> 00:41:12,454
Two weeks later,
that guard was murdered by an inmate.
949
00:41:12,538 --> 00:41:13,497
Holy shit.
950
00:41:13,580 --> 00:41:15,791
And that's when he knew
Masterson and Reform Corp
951
00:41:15,874 --> 00:41:17,334
had been colluding
from the start.
952
00:41:17,376 --> 00:41:19,712
So, what did he do?
He went to his managing partner.
953
00:41:19,795 --> 00:41:22,840
And Tommy Bratton said it wasn't
collusion between two parties.
954
00:41:22,923 --> 00:41:24,633
It was collusion
between three parties.
955
00:41:24,717 --> 00:41:27,177
They'd tied all my bonuses
to all the key dates.
956
00:41:27,261 --> 00:41:28,929
The waiver.
The start of construction.
957
00:41:29,013 --> 00:41:29,972
The guard's death.
958
00:41:30,055 --> 00:41:31,598
It looked like I orchestrated
the whole damn thing.
959
00:41:31,682 --> 00:41:33,142
So, you covered up
a murder?
960
00:41:33,225 --> 00:41:34,393
I had no proof
of anything.
961
00:41:34,476 --> 00:41:36,353
I had a wife and daughter and
it looked like I was in on it.
962
00:41:36,437 --> 00:41:39,064
Harvey, that's horrible.
But this isn't on you.
963
00:41:39,857 --> 00:41:41,775
Alex still could have
made a call anonymously.
964
00:41:41,859 --> 00:41:45,070
And so could you,
when you found out Mike was a fraud.
965
00:41:45,154 --> 00:41:47,031
You didn't have to be a party to a crime,
but you were.
966
00:41:47,114 --> 00:41:48,198
That crime wasn't a murder.
967
00:41:48,282 --> 00:41:50,284
Did you hear me, Donna?
They had him.
968
00:41:50,367 --> 00:41:52,286
I had a wife and daughter,
and they set me up.
969
00:41:52,369 --> 00:41:53,412
What was I supposed to do?
970
00:41:55,164 --> 00:41:57,374
Mike, I hate these people.
971
00:41:57,458 --> 00:41:59,418
They deserve to go away
for what they did.
972
00:41:59,501 --> 00:42:00,878
And every morning
when I woke up
973
00:42:00,961 --> 00:42:02,504
and every night
when I went to sleep,
974
00:42:02,588 --> 00:42:04,006
I wanted to make that happen.
975
00:42:04,089 --> 00:42:06,467
But I didn't,
for one reason.
976
00:42:07,801 --> 00:42:09,928
I didn't want my daughter
to grow up without a father.
977
00:42:10,012 --> 00:42:12,473
And if you pursue this,
there's no way I don't get caught up in it.
978
00:42:12,556 --> 00:42:13,932
You don't know that.
Yes, I do.
979
00:42:14,016 --> 00:42:15,809
When Bratton came
after our clients,
980
00:42:15,893 --> 00:42:19,063
Alex signed a declaration saying
he took full responsibility.
981
00:42:19,146 --> 00:42:21,523
Harvey, if you're asking Mike
to let this thing go...
982
00:42:21,607 --> 00:42:22,983
I don't know
if I can do that.
983
00:42:23,067 --> 00:42:24,610
I'm not asking
you to let it go.
984
00:42:24,693 --> 00:42:26,945
I'm telling you what will
happen if you don't.
