There was a guard
who was getting suspicious

of what was going on in there.

They wanted me to put him down.

I told him iwouldn't do it

until whoever was running
the show came to me directly.

And who exactly was that? Roger
shapiro. Ceo of reform corp.

And then what happened?
I killed him.

So you two
are in on this together.

I have no idea
what you're talking about.

You're never gonna pull
this shit again on prisoners.

That's a signed confession
from Roger shapiro,

saying he entered
into a conspiracy

and that conspiracy
was arranged by you.

Look, I'm not going
to stand here

and write my resignation
letter in front of you two.

What's going on with you and
Brian? Donna, he's married.

I would never do it.

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

to what the brain
says it would never do.

Denise gallo? Who are you?

Someone who knew your father.
He wanted you to have this.

Did you know? Know what?

That Gavin Andrews was gonna
ask me to launder money for him?

I knew he was gonna
ask you to do something.

Help me get out of this.

What the hell did you
do with my money?

I found you a legitimate
business opportunity.

You're fired. I don't think so.

Becauseiflcan do this to you,

imagine what I can do for you.

Hello. Gavin: There you are.

What the hell time
do you get to the office?

I'm at my desk ten minutes
before I need to be every morning,

which means you tracked me down.

The question is, why?

Because we've got a situation.

What did you do now?
I didn't do anything.

One of my transport flights
was carrying some art.

Apparently the hull
depressurized,

and one of the pieces
got damaged.

What kind of art?
The expensive kind.

Well, then it had to be
insured, so what's the problem?

The problem is the insurance
inspectorjust left here,

and the son of a bitch
has got the balls to say

they'd be suing me
for the damages.

All right, I'll get into it.

Who's the insurance company?

Dexhart insurance group. Shit.

What's the matter?
Is that gonna be a problem?

Just tell me, have the
papers been filed yet?

Why do you think I'm
calling you this early?

Katrina: Louis.

This is silly. Where
are you taking me?

Relax. We're there.

Then can I take off
this blindfold?

No. Not until you guess
exactly where we are right now.

We're in my new office.

What the f...
How could you know that?

Because you told me I'd make
senior partner next quarter,

and it's next quarter.

Now can I take
this blindfold off?

Holy shit, you just suck the
fun out of everything, don't you?

Inthatcase,

I have dreamt
about making senior partner

since I was nine years old.

You not only fought
for me to get this...

I wouldn't even be at
this firm without you.

And on top of all that, Louis...

This office is the most
beautiful thing I've ever seen.

All right. I was wrong.

You don't suck
the fun out of anything.

Thank you, Louis.

Thank you for fighting for me.

Alex: Samantha, we
need to talk. Let me guess...

Gavin called you. He did.

Then you know
we have a conflict,

which means one of us
has to drop their client.

So, do you have
Gavin's private line,

or do you need me
to give it to you?

I don't need anything,
because you're gonna call up

dexhart insurance and tell them
you can't handle this particular matter.

Are you kidding me? You wouldn't
even have Gavin if it weren't for me.

It doesn't matter how I got
him, I'm not dropping him.

Alex, I told you, the guy
isn't worth the trouble.

View this as an
opportunity to cut him loose

and be done with it.
Wait a second.

Did your client say
they wanted to sue mine,

or did you suggest it to them?

What difference does it make?

The difference is
I thought we were past this.

But if this is how you're making
your play for name partner,

it's not gonna work.
The only play I'm making

is to protect
my client from yours,

because Gavin
sabotaged that plane,

and I know that because I
know everything else he's done.

And you just admitted
using privileged information

against a former client.

And I could have you
tossed off this just for that.

You mean information like using a member
of your client's family against them?

That's not breaking
privilege, and you know it.

And neither is catching that
asshole with his hand in the cookie jar.

Cut the bullshit, Samantha,
and step out of the ring,

because this isn't happening no
matter how much you want it to.

I don't want it. My client does.

And I've never stepped
out of a ring in my life.

So, either call Gavin
or someone can do it for you,

because this case
is moving forward.

Nice home you've made
for yourself here, Robert.

Nicer than the home
you should have, Tommy,

since you belong in prison.

Funny you should say that,
'cause that's exactly why I'm here.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about the fact that
you're sitting pretty in this firm

after you forced me out of mine.

You're lucky that's all I did,

because you're responsible for
the deaths of multiple inmates.

According to you.
According to frank gallo.

That's right,
you got him on tape

saying what monsters we all are.

And then you used it to
blackmail me into early retirement.

But that gave me
plenty of time to think.

Why the hell would
frank gallo cooperate with you

if it meant admitting to murder?

What are you getting at, Tommy?

You and this firm offered frank
gallo money for his daughter

in exchange for fabricated testimony
that you used to leverage me.

Now I'm here to make you pay.

You're coming at us to get revenge
for something you actually did.

I'm coming at you
for what's owed to me,

which is the compensation
for the firm that I lost.

And how about you compensate the
families of the people that you had killed?

Because the only thing that you
are owed are a pair of prison stripes.

And if you do this,
I promise you'll get them.

Robert, if I wanted empty threats, I
would have brought this right to Harvey.

But I didn't, because
I wanted to be here

to see the look on your face
when you realized

I'm going to take you all down.

Just like you did to me.

See the money,
wanna stay for your meal

get another piece of pie
for your wife

everybody wanna know how it feel

everybody wanna see
what it's like

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

me and missy is so early

busy, busy making money

all right!

All step back I'm 'bout to dance

the greenback boogie

Louis: Let me get this straight.

Tommy Bratton
is accusing us of conspiracy

and suing us for $20 million.

Blackmailing us for $20 million.

Call it whatever you want.

I'm not giving that
son of a bitch one nickel.

Well, what are we
going to do, Robert?

Because, I hate to say it,
we did conspire with you.

I'll tell you
what we're going to do.

We're gonna go through
every piece of communication

on that case

and make sure there's nothing
linking me to this firm.

Robert, I went to your house.
Mike went to your house.

We never exchanged one email,
phone call. We're good.

And I don't feel like risking
my future on your memory.

Wait a minute. Maybe we don't
have to risk anything on anything.

Donna:
What are you talking about?

I'm talking about someone
close to Bratton

who might be able to stop
this thing dead in its tracks.

Eh(3omd. Exacfly.

He was Bratton's partner,
and what's more,

Alex got him on tape admitting

that he committed
a disbarrable offense.

Which means you've been dangling
a sword over his head ever since.

Guess what.
I got the sword right here.

That settles it.
We have our game plan.

Hold on. Ifthis thing
goes to trial,

couldn't Bratton
end up in prison?

What are you getting at, Donna?

Why would he risk that
just to get revenge?

Because people do crazy things

when they think
they've lost everything.

Now, let's get to it.

We've all got something to do.

Robert: Samantha,
whatever it is, now is not the time.

Too bad. We have a problem,
and his name is Gavin Andrews.

Oh, what now with that man?

Long story short,

dexhart insurance needs
to sue starboard airlines.

And how exactly
is that supposed to happen

when we represent them both?

Why do you think I'm here?

Oh, you better not be here

to get me to tell Alex
to drop his client.

Robert, you know Gavin
is not worth the headache.

He needs to go.

Here's a better idea.

Since you and Alex

each just lost a client,

these two clients stay.

What?

You think I wouldn't find out
about that rand kaldor shit?

Robert, I was gonna...
Listen to me.

This firm is under attack.
We can't do this right now.

What do you mean under attack?

That's none of your concern. What
is your concern is fixing this situation.

And how do we do that

when neither client
is gonna back down?

I'll tell you how. You and
Alex stop acting like children.

Get your clients in a room
and get them to settle.

And what do you propose we do
when that doesn't work?

Samantha, instead of taking up
more time that I don't have,

I propose you make it work.

Good morning, Katrina.
Can I help you with something?

If this conversation
goes as planned,

you're going to be helping me
with a lot of things.

I don't understand.

I just made senior partner.

So it's official? It's official.

And, as my first act,

Brian Simon Altman,
will you be my associate?

Katrina, I'm honored.

But before I answer,

are you sure the two of us working
so closely together is a good idea?

What? I mean, we've
become good friends,

so it might get complicated
if I officially work for you.

I appreciate that, Brian,
but I'm okay with it if you are.

In that case, I would love
to be your associate.

Then I suggest we start
with some ground rules.

First, every day you get here
before everyone else.

Done. Next, power ties only.

Not any of the ties
I have ever seen you wear.

I've been meaning to replace
my entire collection anyway.

Finally, I don't want a yes-man.

So, I don't care
what the topic is,

if you disagree with me,
I want you to push back

whether it'll piss me off
or not.

Are we clear?

If I say yes to that, that would
mean I'm being a yes-man,

so I don't know
what to do right now.

I'll tell you
what you're gonna do.

You're gonna help me
win the case

that's gonna put us on the map.

Hey. Do you have a second?

Only if you have an hour to
go through that box over there.

Actually, I think I may have
a better way to spend my time.

Okay.

What's going on
in that brain of yours?

I didn't want to say it
in the room,

but I don't think
Eli gould is the only person

we should be going to right now.

We need to pay a visit
to gallo's daughter.

You think she knows something
that can help us.

I don't know what she knows.

But we better find out,
because there's a chance

that Bratton has her
in his pocket.

And who knows what lies
he told to get her there?

You're right. I'll go right now.

No, no, no. That's what
I'm trying to tell you.

It can't be you.

Donna, I know you're a part
of the firm's leadership, but...

Harvey, if Bratton has
convinced her of some bullshit,

then it's gonna be next to
impossible to change her mind.

And the man who put her
father away in the first place

isn't the one to do that.

You're right. Do what you can.

Oh, finally.

I've been looking for you. Why?

You got another lawsuit to drop?

Actually, I have
a settlement to reach.

Are they putting
something in this coffee?

Becauseitsounds
like you're backing off.

Alex, Robert doesn't want
either one of us

losing any more
business right now.

You mean, you asked him to
make me drop Gavin, and he said no.

The important thing is keeping
both clients wasn't a request.

It was an order.

Which means we need to figure
out a way to stay out of court.

We do. Well...

I'm not selling out my client
just to please Robert Zane,

so what exactly
are you suggesting?

I'm suggesting that we do what
two people that like to go to war

sometimes have to do.
Find a way to make peace.

Eli.

I hope you don't mind,
your wife let me in.

Louis litt.

You've got some balls
coming to my house.

I knew you might not like it,

which is why
I brought you a gift.

Is that what I think it is?

If you think it's the only
copy of the recording

Alex Williams made of you
that night, then, yeah, it is.

And I'm offering it to you.
Why would you do that?

I thought we could work out
a little arrangement.

You get Tommy Bratton
to back off his lawsuit,

you get back the one thing
that can cost you yourhcense.

What makes you think I'd help
you just to get that damn thing back?

Eli, I don't think you fully
understand the situation.

We may have forced him out,
but his name is still on your wall.

You take this to court, you're
risking the name Bratton gould

forever being associated
with corruption and murder.

And when he convinces a jury that you
fabricated material just to blackmail him,

the whole world's gonna think
you're liars.

That little tape of yours
will be worthless,

and the name Bratton gould
will bejust fine.

Eli, you need
to think this through.

The man is guilty.
The man was my partner.

You cost him millions,

blackmailed me twice
with that thing already,

and now you're gonna pay.

Eli, please. Get the
hell out of my house.

This is a bunch of bullshit.

I take it that means
you're up to speed?

I'm not just up to speed, I know
more about women's clothing

than I ever thought possible.

Then you know hi-rise fashion has
been ripping off our client's designs.

I do. The thing I don't know
is how we're gonna stop them,

because copyright laws
are notoriously vague.

Which is why, when we win,
it's going to make a statement.

Then since I'm not supposed
to be a yes-man,

I have to ask, are you sure
you don't want our first case

to be a guaranteed win?

Okay, the truth is I'm not just
doing this to make a statement.

I'm also doing it because
the designer's my friend.

Which means
this case is personal.

And I told myself that when I
had enough clout to pick my cases,

I would pick hers.

Inthatcase, why don't you
tell me what our first move is?

Easy.

Tomorrow morning
we slap them with this.

Denise gallo? Yeah?

My name's Donna paulsen. I'd
like to ask you a few questions.

About what?

I was wondering if a man named
Thomas Bratton came to you

asking about the money
you received from your father.

He came to me to ask about
the money I got from you.

And what'd you tell him?

That I don't know what my
father did to get that money,

but a man came to my home
and dropped off a check,

and I wasn't about
to turn it down.

And didn't that man also tell you
that your father was a good person?

So what if he did?

So these people
are trying to say

that we paid him off
to lie for us.

And it isn't true.

What do you want me
to do about it?

I want you to take
the stand and testify.

Your father died
trying to redeem himself.

They're trying to take that away
from you, and you can't let them do it.

Let's say I believe you, and
frank actually had changed.

Thomas Bratton told me the
reason he got killed is 'cause of you.

Are you gonna tell me
that's not true?

I'm not.

Because they might
lie to you, but I won't.

Frank never would have
tried to redeem himself

if we hadn't contacted him.

So, yeah,
he might still be alive.

But the reason he's dead
isn't because of us.

It's because they killed him.

Well, it doesn't matter.

'Cause I never knew
the man he became.

I only knew the man he was, and
that man would've lied, cheated,

done whatever else it took
to get what he wanted,

which, most of the time,
was money.

If you ask me
about that under oath,

that's all I'll be able to say.

Harvey: All right, Louis,
we're all here. What's going on?

It didn't work with gould.

And I hate to pile on
more bad news,

but if Bratton puts
Denise gallo on the stand,

she's gonna say that frank gallo

never did a thing
that wasn't for money.

Which makes it look like
we paid him off to lie.

And if we did that, we'd also be
willing to conspire with each other.

Which means we're
right back at square one.

Eli: I wouldn't say that.

Harvey: What are you doing
here, Eli? I'm here with an offer.

Give me that tape back,
I'll get him to settle.

Five million, and you
two admit what you did.

No deal. It saves you money.

It also puts us in a position
of losing our licenses.

Which is what he's been holding
over my head for two years.

I don't give a shit. No deal.

Look, I thought about
what you said last night

but if I'm gonna convince
Tommy, I got to give him something.

Sign a civil admission,
and we'll seal it.

Sealed or not,
we sign something like that,

it finds its way to the bar.

Listen to me.

I want this to go away as
much as you, but I'm telling you,

this is the best
you're gonna get.

I hate to say this, but,

I think maybe
we should take his deal.

We can't trust Eli gould.

And we sure as hell
can't trust Tommy Bratton.

And I think you're forgetting that
they may be lying about the gallo part,

but you and Robert did
what they're saying. So what?

So we may have no other choice
than to trust him.

I'm not trusting shit.

Because I know
what's going on here.

And it goes back to
Donna's original question.

You mean, why would a man like
Tommy Bratton risk going to prison?

And the answer is he wouldn't.

This whole thing
is a good-cop-bad-cop bluff,

and I'm gonna put a stop to it.

How?

The way you put
a stop to any bully.

You take his bluff, and
you shove it down his throat.

Those are lovely.
Whose are they?

I'm sorry? Brian: She
means, "who designed them?"

Since we know
your people didn't.

Justhke they didn't
design this or this or this.

I don't know who you are,

but these items were all
part of our last spring line,

and we designed them ourselves.

What you mean is you
copied my client's designs,

then beat her to market
and undercut her price.

I see what this is
because I've seen it before.

And no associate at some middling
law firm is going to shake me down.

I'm not an associate,
I'm a senior partner.

And this isn't a shakedown,

it's a chance at a settlement
before we clean you out in court.

Then file your suit.

Because it's a thin line
between theft and inspiration,

particularly
in a creative industry

where people have
similar ideas all the time.

My lawyers
have assured me of that.

Have they also told you about
Johnson v. Olympia records?

Because a songwriter
was awarded $15 million

for plagiarized work
in exactly the same situation.

And since precedents
can cross industries,

in particular
the creative ones...

We thought $15 million for our
client's designs would be fair.

We'll give you 24 hours
to consult your lawyers.

After that,
we'll see you in court.

As your lawyers, it is
ourjob to go to war for you.

Most of the time
that means going to court.

The thing is, court is ugly,
expensive, and most of all, it's risky.

So last night Samantha and I
came up with a way to avoid all that.

The painting in question had a
market value of $120 million.

Our proposal is that
starboard airlines pay 45%,

with no admission of fault.

Let me get this straight. You
want me to pony up $50 million

when we didn't
do anything wrong?

Gavin, it's a compromise.
There's got to be pain on both sides.

Well, I say that's a lot of pain
on mine and not enough on theirs.

And you've got exposure
for the full 120,

so I'd say you're getting
a hell of a deal.

Well, I don't really care
what you say.

Then I'll say it.

If anybody's coming
out ahead here, it's you,

and I don't like it.

Samantha: Nina, listen
to me. No, I did listen to you.

Two days ago, when you said
this shady son of a bitch

destroyed that painting
intentionally and you'd prove it.

I don't believe it.
"Shady son of a bitch."

Is that how you talk
about your former clients?

Gavin... yeah,
that's what she said.

Nina, this deal
puts money on the table now.

You don't take it,

I will appeal this thing till
2020 and not break a sweat.

Assuming we don't get
it tossed, which we will,

knowing what I do about how
you and your company do business.

About how I do business?

You gonna let him
push us around like that?

Alex, this thing is a loser for
you. Get your client under control.

Don't tell me
how to handle my client

when you started
this whole thing.

And don't talk to me
about this case being a loser.

You're lucky we're
even in here. Bullshit.

You're lucky we're in here.

We go to court,
and I will clean your clock.

Bring it on. If only we could.

As far as I'm concerned,
you can,

'cause I've had enough of this.

You want my money, Samantha,
come and take it,

'cause I'm not signing
any deals with anyone.

Harvey, can I talk to you
for a second? What about?

About the fact that I've had it
with Samantha Wheeler's bullshit.

Slow down. What's going on?

What's going on
is she deliberately

encouraged dexhart insurance
to sue my client,

and I'm tired of tiptoeing
around the situation. Meaning?

I want to go toe-to-toe
with her in trial.

You want us to go to trial
representing both clients?

Harvey, I was in a room
with all sides today.

They want a fight as much
as I do. They'll waive conflict.

And that would work, Alex,

except we can't afford
having two partners

fighting a death match
in front of the whole world,

when we need to look unified.

What do you mean when
we need to look unified?

What's going on?

I don't want to get into it,
but we're handling it.

Well, here's the thing,
Harvey, we're not unified.

And even if we were, those
two clients aren't going to settle.

So, like it or not, my
next move is going to court

to get her kicked off this case.

Samantha, ifyou're here aboutyourcase
against starboard airlines...

You know about that?
I'm a name partner.

It's my business to know when one of
our attorneys files suit against another.

Well, while we're on the subject of
filing things, Alex Williams filed this.

This is a motion to force
you to recuse yourself.

Yeah, he's trying to get me
kicked off my own case,

which means you're gonna
kick him off instead.

Wait, what? You heard me.

Alex is gonna
drop Gavin Andrews,

and you're gonna make him do it.

No. You want that done,
you go to Robert.

Robert's not here,
and I need it done now.

Well, I can't do it for you.

You can and you will
because you owe me.

Oh, no. You don't get
to call in that chit for this.

I get to call it in
for whatever I want,

because you came to me
and made me drop delta,

and then I went against Robert when you
wanted back on the case he took from you.

So we are dropping Gavin
Andrews whether you like it or not.

Bratton:
You come here for the steam?

Because I hate
to break it to you,

you got to take the suit off.

That's a good one, Tommy.

But I'm here
to tell you I don't care

if you get Eli gould or mother
Teresa or Gandhi to be your good cop,

we're not taking your deal. I don't
know what the hell you're talking about.

I didn't offer you a deal.
Oh, yes, you did.

Because you don't have the
balls to risk going to prison.

Thatsfunny, because
what are you going to say

when I put you on the stand
and I ask you point-blank,

did you conspire
with Harvey specter?

You talk a big game, but
it's not going down like that,

because I'm gonna say that you
conspired to keep people in prison

for the purpose
of lining your own pockets.

And when you
end up in prison yourself,

every inmate in there is gonna
know that's exactly what you did.

Now who's talking a
big game, Robert? I am.

Because we're gonna show this
video of frank gallo calling you out.

Hell, we might even
put it up on YouTube.

You're making
a big mistake, Robert.

I'm calling your bluff.
So drop this thing,

or go ahead
and pick a trial date.

But, Tommy, just to be clear,

when they close that cell door,

you're not gonna last the night.

Louis: Harvey, we need to talk.

If it's about Robert and
Bratton, I haven't heard back yet.

It's not. It's about
Alex and Samantha.

What did he do now?
Not him, it's her.

She wants me to make him
drop Gavin Andrews.

Well, then what the hell
are you doing in here?

Just tell her no.

Here's the thing, Harvey.

I gave her a chit. I owe her.

She knows it, and now
I don't know what to do.

Alex was right.
What do you mean?

I mean, I've had aboutenough
of Samantha's bullshit.

So you're saying I should sacrifice my
honor and not let her cash in her chit?

No, Louis. I'm saying
the complete opposite.

Katrina, we've been
going over this all day.

We've got them. They're
gonna take the deal.

Maybe they will,

but I am going to keep dotting
my is and crossing my ts

because I need to be sure.

What you need is for someone
not to be your yes-man,

and that starts
right now. Brian...

Katrina, you just became
senior partner.

I bet you haven't even
taken time to celebrate yet.

I'll celebrate after we
win. No, you won't...

Because there'll be another
case and then another.

And if you don't stop

and appreciate the big
moments when they come,

you'll regret it.

What are you saying?
I'm saying I'm pulling rank.

We're going out to celebrate,
and we're going out right now.

What the fuck do
you think you're doing?

Whoa, Alex, calm down.

You told my client we're dropping
him and you want me to calm down?

You're lucky I'm not putting
you on the floor right now.

Listen to me. I had to
do it. It was the only way.

The only way to what? Screw
me over? Alex, I owed Samantha.

The only way for me to get
out of it was to do this for her.

So you put her over me.
No, I didn't.

Because if she wasn't
asking for this,

she'd be asking me to back her for
name partner when the time comes,

instead of me and Harvey backing
you for name partner right now.

You're telling me I'm name partner?
Because I didn't get the memo.

Harvey's going
to Zane as we speak.

Well, Louis, the second
you put my name on the door,

I will call Gavin and
drop him like a hot potato.

Until then, he's my client,

and don't you ever contact him
without my knowledge again.

To z.S.L.'S
newest senior partner.

Brian, you've already
toasted me four times.

I'd figured you're new to
this whole celebrating thing.

I wanted to show you
how it's done.

Well, in that case...

To z.S.L.'S best associate,

because, Brian, that precedent
was a stroke of genius.

Thank you.

By the way, how did
you come up with it?

The music industry
is the perfect parallel,

and yet no one's ever
thought of it before.

It's actually
a little embarrassing.

What do you mean embarrassing?

I thought
about the music industry

because I considered
becoming a songwriter myself.

You're kidding. No.

In fact, Julie and I
talked about it a long time

before finally
deciding on law school.

Let me guess.

She wanted you
to take the safer route,

and you wanted to
explore your artistic side.

Actually, the other way around.

When I told her
I was going to be a lawyer,

she said I should have more
faith in myself as an artist.

You're lucky to have someone
who thinks so highly of you.

I am.

But the thing is,
once I moved into law,

ifoundllovedit as much
as I ever loved writing.

What? Nothing. It's just...

Julie doesn't understand that,

and sometimes I wish she would.

Anyway, it's nice to be
able to talk about the law

with someone
that's actually interested.

Well, if that's
what you're looking for,

consider me happy to discuss
the nuances of the law anytime,

becauselloveit
as much as you do.

Thank you for tonight, Brian.

This is exactly what I needed.

Thanks for asking me
to be your associate, Katrina.

I'm really happy you did.

Oh, Harvey. Good.

You can help me go through
the last of these files.

I'm not going
through anything, Robert.

Not until we've talked
about Alex Williams.

If this is about what I think it
is, we already talked about it.

No, we agreed to kick
the can down the road.

Well, this is the end
of the road,

because Louis and I
are backing Alex

for name partner right now.

Harvey, now is not the time
to be discussing this.

Yes, it is,

because Samantha and Alex
are about to go to war.

If you're talking about dexhart
insurance, I told her to settle.

Well, she didn't.

She went to Louis, called in a chit
to make him drop Gavin Andrews.

And I didn't let you
become managing partner

just so your lieutenant...
You didn't let me do anything.

And if Samantha did
that, I'll deal with her. How?

Because as far as I can tell,
you have never dealt with her.

Okay, you listen to me.
No, you listen to me.

You've let her do whatever she
wants ever since she got here.

Alex has been fighting for
this firm ever since he got here.

And I made him a promise...

Before you two go any further,
we got a bigger problem.

Tommy Bratton wasn't bluffing.

He just sent over a trial
date. It's for a week from today.

Shit. Don na: Exactly.

So you two need to
stop fighting each other

because now we got to fight
him. Louis: No, we don't.

Because I know why Bratton's
doing this. What are you talking about?

You thought Bratton wouldn't
risk going to prison for this.

Well, he will, and I know why.

Brian: I don't know about you,

but getting here at 7:00 am.
Isn't as easy with a hangover.

I don't care, Brian,

because hi-rise fashion
just dropped a bomb.

Wait, what? How? We've
got them. In court, yes.

But they just cut a huge
deal with our manufacturer.

And suddenly our
manufacturer is telling us

they no longer have the
capacity to handle our product.

You mean they made it
a condition of their order,

which is illegal.

Yes, it is.

And if they did it to us,
they did it to others.

And I'm going to tell them I'm
going to the DOJ if they don't back off.

No, without proof,
a threat like that

can be construed as
inducing malicious prosecution.

You can't do it. Well, I
have to do something.

Because instead of
spending my time last night

thinking about how to prevent
this, I took my eye off the ball.

Katrina, don't be
so hard on yourself.

You couldn't have
seen this coming.

I might have seen it coming

if I'd stayed here
like I wanted to

instead of letting you
convince me to go party.

Hold on a second. You're
saying this is my fault?

Because I didn't
convince you, I invited you.

And you said you wanted an
associate who would push back.

Push back on case work,
not tell me not to do my job.

Then let me push back right
now, because you bluff these guys,

you're opening yourself up
to huge exposure.

So what?

Harvey specter
bluffs all the time.

Harvey specter has a 15-plus-year
track record of kicking people's asses.

So you don't have faith in me
to pull this off.

I didn't say that.

I'm saying it's not a risk worth
taking, and I'm not gonna let you do it.

Well, Brian, there's a time to
push back and a time to get in line.

I'm going over there
at 3:00 pm. Today,

and you are either
with me or you're not.

Then I'm not, because this
is a mistake, and you know it.

Harvey, you have a minute?

I'm about to file a few motions,
but, yeah, I have a minute.

I was under the impression you
don't normally file your own motions.

Well, it's kind of important.

What's on your mind?
Trouble in senior partner town?

How'd you know?

Because that's
the first thing that happens

after you make it
to senior partner town.

Well, then long story short...

It's my first case...

My back's against the wall,
and my only way out is to bluff.

I'm opening myself up to
significant exposure, and...

I'm not sure I can pull it off.

Then think of another way.

How come?

Because ifyou're not sure
you can pull it off, you won't.

And, Katrina, life is long.

You don't want to start your
senior partnership with exposure.

Now, I got to go.

Thank you, Harvey.

Harvey: I see they're
letting you use your old office.

First, Robert, now you?

Well, he had his turn at bat.

And we thought it was time
for me to have mine.

Oh, go ahead and take your
best shot, but like I told Robert,

I'm not bluffing.

That's the thing, Tommy,
we know you're not,

and we figured out why.

You don't know
what you're talking about.

Yes, I do.

Turns out, three months ago,
you were diagnosed with cancer

and given a year to live.

Well, if you know that, then you
also know I'm never going to settle.

What I know is what our
trial strategy is gonna be.

Motion to delay,

motion to delay,

motion to delay.

The wheels of justice
turn slowly, Tommy,

which means even if you win,
you won't be here to see it.

You really are
a son of a bitch, aren't you?

No. You did this.

You brought this on yourself.

It's time to let it go.

Spend what time you have left
with your family.

Just let me go back to my firm
for nine months more,

and I will drop this.

I can't let you do that, Tommy,

because I've seen what you do.

I'm not gonna let you
get back in the game

and do something like this
to someone else.

Then you know what?
Delay all you want.

Because they say when you're
fighting something like I am,

you have to have
something to live for.

Well, you just gave me two
years to live on hate alone.

Now get the hell out of here,
and I'll see you in court.

That looks like a job
for your associate.

If you're just here to
talk me out of my bluff,

you don't have to worry,
I'm not gonna do it.

Good.

Because you don't have to.

I don't believe it.

You got proof they colluded
with our manufacturer.

I did.

Brian, how did you
get this? Simple.

I called up the factory pretending to
be in hi-rise's contracts department

and started complaining about how
all we had were verbal assurances

they'd uphold our agreement.

Eventually they agreed
to sign a memo.

Theyagreed to incriminate
themselves? Not exactly.

I told them copyright laws
are notoriously vague,

so their memo could be, too.

But even a vague memo is enough
for us to get them investigated.

Or threaten to.

But now,

you can do it with proof.

Did it occur to you that
misrepresenting yourself like this

could have opened you up
to huge exposure?

It did.

But I decided
it was worth the risk,

because my job
may be to push back,

but it's also to have your back.

And from now on, I will.

"Two more years on hate alone."

He said that?

He not only said it,
the son of a bitch meant it.

He's gonna fight us
until his last breath.

What?

A man gets told he only has
so much time left on this earth,

you would think that would
put things in perspective.

You would.

Butlguess he'd have to be human.

And as it turns out, he's
more like the Terminator,

just won't go down.

Come with me if you want to live.

I'll be back.

Hasta la vista, baby.

If it bleeds, we can kill it.

First of all, that's predator.

Second of all, you sound
Jamaican, not German.

Oh.
Oh, man, get off my back, man.

You know what? He's Austrian.

Yeah.

What are we gonna do?

We're gonna do what we have to.

Just delay this thing
as long as possible

and then fight it on its merits.

Louis: We don't have
to fight anything anymore.

Tommy Bratton's dead.

What? Eli gould just called.

Said Tommy had a heart attack.

They think it was brought on by
the stress of fighting his illness.

And fighting us.

Anyway, for what it's worth,

gould's dropping
the whole thing.

Harvey: I got to say, I always
thought we'd win, but not like this.

Robert, you okay?

I don't know.

We may have been at war, but...

I knew the man for 30 years.

I could use a minute
to process this.

Harvey: You take
all the time you need.

How'd it go?

I didn't know you liked baseball.
I didn't know you liked music.

You heading home
fortherflght? Yeah.

Actually, I have to...
Don't go yet.

Brian, you came through for me
in every way on this case.

And like you said
the other night,

if we don't stop to
celebrate the little things,

then what's any of this for?

If I didn't know any better, I'd
say this is your way of thanking me

for looking out for you.

It is.

And I happen
to have made us reservations

at an amazing place
with live music

in honor of your
love of music...

Katrina, I can't tonight.

I really need to get home
to Julie and the baby.

The baby, of course.

I'm sorry.
I didn't think about it.

No, it's okay.

If you don't have one, why
would you think about it?

Right.

Let me just say that I would
love to get a rain check.

Rain check it is. In the
meantime, I got to go.

I'm sure you have someone else
who would love to take my place.

Oh, of course.

Have a good night, Brian.

Good night, Katrina.

Donna: Am I interrupting?

Not really. Good.

Because I happen to have walked
in on a conversation last night

that made me want to
have a conversation with you.

I'm listening.

This...

Thing between you and Alex
is coming to a head,

because Harvey and Louis want
Alex to be the next name partner

and Robert doesn't.

Skip the preamble, Donna.
What's on your mind?

I don't suppose it would
do any good to ask you

to let this thing go and
letalex go up there first.

I don't believe it.
Believe what?

That Harvey doesn't have the balls to
come in here and ask me that himself

instead, he sent you.

He didn't send anybody.
I'm here on my own.

Well, then you may have
internalized the patriarchal system here,

but I have not.

Ihavent internalized anything.

I told you, I'm not here
at the behest of any man.

I'm here on my own,
woman-to-woman,

asking you to take
the long view and wait.

I'm sure you think
that's true, Donna,

but did it occur to you to ask Alex to
step down before you came to me?

Because that's what I mean
by patriarchy.

Well, I did thing to ask Alex,
and I chose to ask you.

And I did that
because it comes down

to who the promise
was made to first,

not the gender of the
person it was made to.

And what's to stop them from
changing their minds before it's my turn?

Because they're not gonna
put a second name up there

for at least another year.

What if they put it in writing?

You're a lawyer,
you make it airtight.

You really
make a person get to the bottom

of what's inside
of them, don't you?

What do you mean?

I mean when you put it that way,

it's not about them
changing their minds

or it taking too long or even
Robert getting hit by a bus.

The truth is, I'm not
backing down because_.

I think I'm better
than Alex Williams.

And I'm not going
to say that I'm not.

Then I respect your decision.

Good night, Samantha.

Louis: Hey.

I heard you won your first case,

and the fact that I
already heard about it

means you're already
making a name for yourself.

Thank you, Louis.

Wait a second.
Is something wrong?

God damn it, did they spell
Bennett with one t again?

No, nothing's wrong.

It's just been a long day,
and I'm tired.

Katrina... I know you.

You don't get tired after winning
a case. Something is going on.

It's just... I know I should
be happy right now.

I finally made it
to the top of the mountain.

I get it.

It only made you realize how
much further you still want to go.

Yes, that's it.

That's exactly it.

No, it's not it.

I have seen that look before,
and it was on my face.

Katrina,

when it comes
to that part of life,

you can't force it.

It's unpredictable.

I hate unpredictable. I know.

I do, too.

But you once told me that
someday, I would find someone.

And I did.

And you will, too.

Life is gonna put that special
someone right in front of you,

and when it happens,
I know you'll be ready.

Hey, I just realized.

I never took you out
to celebrate your promotion.

What do you say we go out
and get dinner right now?

Anothertime, Louis. I have
some work to catch up on.

I don't wanna run
leave you talking to yourself

close your eyes and you
feel like somebody else

Harvey: Drinking alone?

I guess what they say is true.

None of us know
how much time we really have.

No, we don't.

Listen, Robert, I've
been doing some thinking

about the Samantha
and Alex situation.

Not tonight. Just hear me out.

Please.

I think we should
let them fight.

Harvey, we do that, we're
admitting our house is divided,

and we make it that much easier

for another Tommy Bratton
to try and pick us apart.

I know.

But our house is divided.

I made a promise,
you made a promise.

And if we keep doing nothing...

It's worse than letting them
settle it themselves.

One case, head-to-head,
winner gets name partner.

You think they'll go for it?

I think they've been wanting to
go at it ever since you two got here.

Then I say we let them fight.

You want to tell them,
or should I?

Why don't we both tell them?

But let's do it tomorrow.

Because after today, all I
want to do is finish this drink,

go home, and...

See Laura.

Good night, Robert.

Goodnight, Harvey.
