You're afraid she won't
have time for the baby.

I don't know how
it's gonna work.

When the time comes, you'll
be able to step back a little

and trust that the firm
is in good hands.

We pushed the price back down
to what Teddy sold it for

and we get stu Buzzini
to help us do it.

Putting downward pressure on a stock
to help a takeover attempt is illegal.

We can't ask stu to do that.
I'll do it.

You sure you want to do this?

I'm sure someone's gonna do it
whether I like it or not.

Katrina: You wanted to be
what they wanted

so they would choose you.
But they can't choose you,

'cause they've already
chosen someone else.

This deposition is over.

I have no idea who my parents were. I
bounced around the foster care system.

What does that have to do
with... I helped you because

I would have given anything to have
someone like you looking out for me.

If you short that stock,
you'll make a fortune

and a good man
will get his company back.

You guarantee I'm gonna make
money on this and not get caught.

What are we gonna do?
I don't know.

But you can't be
my associate anymore.

I don't want to wait
three days to call you.

Can tomorrow be our three days?

What if we just say it's
tonight and you come on up?

Hi. You're up.
Been up for a little while.

Hope you don't mind,
I, uh, made us some coffee.

What? Too presumptuous, right?

I was just thinking...

Last night was really nice.
It was.

And this is really nice, too.

It is.

As much as I'd love to spend
all morning with you,

I've got a big meeting.

We're actually expanding
our retail presence and...

I get it. You have to go. I do.

Do you remember what I said last
night about not waiting three days?

I'd love to go out again,
Thomas.

Is tonight too soon?
Let me check my calendar...

Yep, I'm free.
I'm gonna head out.

And do you mind
letting yourself out?

Because I was up
really late last night

with this handsome man
that I just started seeing

and I think I might
just go back to sleep.

I don't mind at all.

Sweet dreams.

Judy.

Oh, my god.

It's been years. I know.

But you've never left
my thoughts.

Side effect of being a mother,
foster or not.

Well, it's great to see you.

Let's get some breakfast.
I'll put my day on hold.

I'd love to, Samantha, but
the truth is, I don't have time.

I'm here
because I need your help.

Come on in. I'll make us some
coffee. You can tell me what you need.

And I know you said you wanted
an animal theme for the nursery,

so I was thinking,
what about Peter rabbit?

Or Paddington bear?

Or we could just do all
football and baseball, all sports.

Even wrestling.

Love it. Sounds great.

You're not listening to a
word I'm saying, are you?

Sheila, I'm sorry. I just...

I just got an email.

Katrina and Brian shit the
bed on a deposition and I...

Louis, I know
you're busier than ever,

but this baby's coming
whether we're ready or not.

And I need you to be fully
here, not just physically here.

Good.
I promise I will do better.

Then we can decide on Peter
rabbit and Paddington bear

with the designer tonight.

Tonight? We set it last week.

Is that gonna be a problem?
No, tonight's perfect.

Good.

And, honey, whatever's
going on with Katrina,

I'm sure there's good reason.

One of my kids got pulled
over while driving my car.

He's a good kid.

He reminds me of you
in more ways than one.

I get the picture.
What happened?

There were some pills
in the car,

and they arrested him.

So he needs a lawyer.

He doesn't. I do.
What are you talking about?

I told the police the pills were
mine. How could you do that?

When my back started acting up,

I had to cut down
on my hours at school.

Corey figured it out,
so he started selling pills.

And he used every penny
for groceries or gas,

anything to help us get by.

Judy, I'm not sure
I should get involved in this.

Why not?

Because you're telling me
you didn't do this

and you want me not to use that.

If you want, uh,
I can refer you to someone.

No one else can understand
what's at stake for Corey

and the rest of those kids

because if that prosecutor
has her way,

then I'm gonna lose
my fostering license

and they're gonna take
my kids away.

I understand that, but...
Please.

Ilostyou all those years ago,

and I have never regretted
anything more.

I can't let something
like that happen again.

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

Stu Buzzini, what are you
doing on our side of town?

I was waiting for you
to come out because

I didn't want to have this
conversation in your office.

You're gonna want
to take a look at this.

What is it?

Remember that trade
you had me make

to tank Doyle shoes'
stock price?

I get it. Someone figured it out

and now they want to use it
against you.

Not just someone.
He's a trader at my firm.

He knows what he's doing
and now he wants my job.

Or what?

Or he goes to the sec,

and once they start
aninvesfigafion_.

I know.

Harvey, what are we gonna do?

Two things. First, you're
gonna hire a consultant

to review your firm's
risk-tolerance policy.

And second?

You're gonna tell me
everything there is

to know about this trader,

how old he is, how tall he is,

what he eats for breakfast
in the morning.

What do you need to know
all that for?

Because he's got you,

which means I'm gonna
have to bluff him,

and the best way to quff someone

is to know more about him
than he knows about himself.

And who's this consultant
you want me to hire?

Let's just say
I got the perfect guy.

Louis, how are you
this fine morning?

Don't give me that crap.

You wanna explain why
you and Brian shit the bed

on your perfume case?

Louis, it's complicated,
but I've got it handled.

I thought this was
you and Brian.

Well, about that. Brian and I...

Brian and you what?

I think that this case calls

for more expertise
than Brian can offer,

so I was wondering if you
might be able to help me.

Katrina, I just asked Samantha

to take a new
client meeting for me.

I told Sheila that I would help her
pick out furniture for the nursery,

and I have a million other
things that I am trying to balance,

and you were the one who said

that I had people
who could step up

if I needed to take
a step back, were you not?

Yes, Louis, I was.

Then you step the hell up
because I don't want the world

to think that we can't handle
a simple infringement case.

There you are.
Donna, we need to talk.

Okay, about what?

For starters,
where have you been?

I've been looking for you
all morning.

If you must know...

I overslept.

Why? What's going on?

I need to know exactly
what you said to stu

when we made that
Teddy Doyle trade last year.

If I recall, I told him

he wasn't gonna be
a gunslinger for long

if he didn't do it. Why?

So you made sure
he knew the risks?

I didn't have to make sure.

He knew before half the words

were out of my mouth.

So once again, why?

He's being blackmailed for it.

Holy shit. And how are you
planning to get him out of this,

because, Harvey, we have
to get him out of this.

I know, but I need to know

who lost and how much theylost

on the other side of that trade.

Wait, what?

I need to know how badly
stu can get burned

if this guy ends up
turning him in. Okay.

I'll take care of it.

But, Harvey, if this is about
getting financial information,

Louis is the logical choice.

I know he's the managing
partner and we should tell him,

but I don't want
to get him involved

unless we think
there's no way out of this.

Then I know who to go to.

Robert, can I talk to you?
It's important.

Of course. I'd say good morning,

but I can see it hasn't
been good for you.

That's because Judy o'brien
came to my place

as I was headed in this morning.

Judy? Your old foster mom?
That's the one.

She's asked me to
represent her on a drug case.

She's innocent.

It's one of her kids
who's guilty

and she won't let me tell
the prosecutor that.

Oh, Samantha, as I recall, this
is the woman that took you in

when you were 12 years old.

She stuck with me no matter
how much trouble I got in.

Till I blew it
and the state took me away.

Why won't you help her?
Because what if...

Samantha, I didn't handle
my sister's case

because I was afraid,

and I've regretted
that decision ever since.

If Judy goes to prison because
of me, I'll regret that forever.

If she goes to prison because she
told you not to tell them the truth,

that's on her, not you.

All the same.
No, it's not all the same.

Samantha, when you care about
someone, you fight twice as hard.

It's the reason she came to you.

If it were me,
I wouldn't turn her away.

Okay.

But Louis asked me to take
a meeting for him tonight.

I can't be in two places atonce.

Then give me the details
and I'll take it for you.

And Samantha...

I'm proud of you for doing this.

Mr. Stockman? Yes, that's me.

Nick pavonotti.
I was told to see you.

I understand you're doing
some consulting for the firm.

That's right, and I started
looking at your trade history.

Gen biotech, you lost 2 million.

Shale futures,
10 million down the drain.

Ridley pharma, same thing.
We make bets every day.

Sometimes you win,
sometimes you lose.

You're about to make
your worst bet yet.

What are you talking about? You're
gonna have to rethink your choice

to go after stu Buzzini.

You're no fucking consultant.
You're right, and if you pursue this,

stu's not gonna be
the one in trouble, you are.

What I got on stu is real.

That's why you're here.
Doesn't matter what you have.

Half the guys on wall street
make dirty trades

and they see you throwing
one of their own under the bus,

they're never gonna
want to work with you.

There's something else
about wall street guys.

They're more loyal to money
than anything else,

so unless you're here to tell
me I'm moving in to stu's office,

I'd say we're done.

Nick.

My name is Harvey specter.

Ask around. You'll find people who
go up against me, they never win.

So I'd think long and hard
about what you're gonna do.

Thomas, hi.

Everything okay?

Yeah, um, it's fine.

It's just a work thing.
Want to talk about it?

Or tonight, if now's
not a good time.

To tell you the truth,
I just want to go out

and spend time with you
and not think about it at all.

Then I'll see you tonight.

Donna, you wanted to see me?
Yeah, actually,

I was hoping that you could
point me in the right direction.

The right direction of what?

A trader we represent is being
accused of manipulating a stock,

and in order to understand
how much exposure he has...

You need to know if anyone was
significantly harmed by the trades.

Exactly. I'll call my guy.

I'll have the answer for you
in no time.

That's the thing, Alex. It
needs to stay under the radar.

I don't understand.

If they're already being charged,
what difference does it make?

I never said they were
already being charged.

Then what exactly
is going on here,

'cause if they're not being charged,
how do you even know there was a...

Please tell me we're not
involved in this.

We may have been the ones

who asked the trader to
make the trade in the first place.

So we're not just in it.
We orchestrated it.

We did.

But it was to save
hundreds ofjobs,

and the guy
who caught wind of it

has no idea that we have
anything to do with it.

Then I'll find who was on
the other side of those trades,

and I'll do it so quietly no
one will ever know I was there.

Did you want Brian? Excuse me?

He said you two have been
working really hard lately

and he was gonna spend
the morning at home.

He should be in any minute.

Great.

I can have him come see you
as soon as he gets in.

Unless there's something
I can help you with?

You know what, Susan? There is.

Good afternoon. I'm Samantha
Wheeler. I represent Ms. O'brien.

And like I told you on the phone,
unless you're ready to plead guilty,

we don't have much to talk
about. Then I'll get right to it.

Ms. O'brien pleads guilty
to misdemeanor possession

with a healthy fine
and six months' probation.

Problem with that is
this isn't a misdemeanor.

Those pills were meant
for distribution.

Which is circumstantial at best.

Not based on
how many pills there were.

You know what I'm gonna do
with how many pills there were?

I'm gonna question the count.

Then I'm gonna adjust
for what they were cut with.

Then I'm gonna question the
legitimacy of the stop in the first place.

When I'm done with you,

you'll be lucky to get her
on a parking ticket.

That might work
where you come from,

but no jury in this town
is gonna believe any of that.

What is wrong with you?

Ms. O'brien has been an asset
to this community for 20 years.

With all due respect,
Ms. Wheeler,

you don't know a damn thing
about this community,

and I don't know
what that woman did

to get some Manhattan lawyer
in her corner,

but I'm not gonna let it stop
me from doing what I have to.

What is that supposed to mean?

Do you think I don't know
what's going on here?

Those pills weren't hers,
they were that kid's.

I don't believe this.

You think she's innocent and
you're still gonna throw the book

at a 65-year-old woman?

I am gonna do whatever it takes

to keep those drugs
out of my county.

Look, I am not a monster.

If you want to do right by her,

convince her to make that kid
take responsibility for what he did.

Susan: I don't understand.

If the deposition didn't go well,
can't we just redepose them?

No, Susan, we can't. Why not?

Among other things, they'll be
ready for our line of questioning.

Just_ vvhatw_.

Give me a minute to think.

Excuse me, Katrina. Can
I talk to you for a second?

Of course.

Susan, can you give us the room?

When were you gonna tell me?
Tell you what?

That you were pulling me off
the adored case.

I already told you we can't
work together anymore.

I know, and I let that go

because you obviously weren't
in the mood to talk about it,

but I didn't think
you were gonna pull me off

in the middle of a case.

Well, lwasn't going to, but then
you weren't at your desk, and I...

You what?
I picked someone else, okay?

Because like I said, it's not
going to work between us.

Oh, well,
that's fantastic, Katrina,

butwhen I'm supposed
to be your associate

and I find out from someone else

I'm no longer on the case,
it makes me look like an idiot

and I don't think
I should be punished

when this whole thing
was your fault.

We said it was nobody's fault.
Well, it sure as he” wasn't mine.

And it's not fair that
my reputation in this firm

takes a hit when you're the
one... I was the one that what?

You know what, Katrina?

You don't want to work
together, then we won't,

but I'd appreciate it
if you think of a reason

we can give that doesn't
make me look like shit.

Harvey specter. Kevin Miller.

From a prison cell to a
corner office in record time.

Ah, not just a corner office,
biggest office in the firm.

I take it things have been
good? Better than good.

The sutter cloud is gone,
things are great with Jill,

and the firm is growing
like crazy. Glad to hear it.

Because I need you
to make room for one more.

You're sending someone my way?
He must be a star.

Actually, Kevin, he's a snake, but
you're gonna take him on anyway.

And why would I do that?

Because someone I care about is
being blackmailed by this bastard.

Ah. I get it. You're asking
me to make him an offer

good enough to get him
off your back.

That's right,
except I'm not asking.

Harvey, come on.

I mean, I just got my life back.

I can't bring someone into my shop
that's gonna send me back to prison.

I know I owe you,
but not like this.

Yes, like this, because I did
a hell of a lot worse for you,

and if I hadn't, you'd still
be rotting in prison.

So when I call in a favor,
you don't put conditions on it.

All right,
just tell me his name.

I'll write up an offer, make it
look like a headhunter found him.

His name is Nick pavonotti, and
you can skip the headhunter part.

He'll know it's from me.

You make him an offer

and you tell him it's not worth
it to mess with Harvey specter.

Never thought
I'd see this place again.

I have to say, it doesn't look
too much worse for wear.

How did it go
with the prosecutor?

Were you able to make a deal?

It's not gonna be
that easy, Judy.

She knows the drugs
are Corey's, not yours.

Then she should be willing
to go easy on me.

No, she shouldn't,
and she isn't,

because she's not gonna let
you stop her from doing herjob.

I have a job, too, and
that's to protect my children.

I'm not gonna let them ruin
his life because of one mistake.

Itwon't ruin his life.
They'll take him away from me.

If you don't do this, they're
gonna take them all from you.

I can't do it. I can't sacrifice
him for everyone else.

Why not? 'Cause I
already did that with you.

No, you didn't have a choice
with me. They took me from you.

And before they did, they
asked if I wanted to keep trying,

and I said no.
I don't believe this.

You've been lying to me
all these years?

I didn't want to hurt you.
If you didn't want to hurt me,

you should have kept me,

or at least told me
the truth about it.

I couldn't do that.

I couldn't tell you I was choosing
the good of everyone over you.

What would that
have done to you?

What do you think it did to me?

Samantha... no, let
me just get this straight.

Rather than fight for me
or even tell me the truth,

you gave up on me,

and then years later,

walk into my home to have me save
you from making the same mistake again.

You were the only person
I knew who could help.

I could have, Judy,
but not anymore.

Samantha, please.
I used that word with you.

I said, "please,
don't let them take me."

But it turns out you could have
stopped them and you didn't.

So now I'm giving up on you.

Katrina, whatever it is, I'm
on my way out for the night.

That's okay.
This won't take long.

I would just like to start the process of
having Brian removed as my associate.

What? He's too advanced for me.

All right.

You wanna tell me what
happened between the two of you,

or do you want me to just
figure out myself?

Nothing happened.
Because it won't take me long

to figure out,
and I'm pretty sure

you would rather just tell me
about it yourself.

Okay, look.

You told me not to go into
the kitchen and I tried not to,

but it turns out everywhere
we go is the kitchen.

So did something happen or not?

No, but we both wanted it to,

and then I told him
I can't work with him anymore.

And then we got into a fight
because he said

that itwould hurt him
if I can't explain why

he's not my associate anymore.

And that's why I told you that
bullshit about him being too advanced.

Bet it feels good
to get that off your chest.

Only so much because
I still don't know what to do.

Talk to him about it.
I told you, I tried.

No, you told me you foughtwith
him, and fighting isn't talking.

I should know that
better than anyone.

What do you mean?
I mean, I understand

what it's like to have complicated
issues with someone you work with.

Especially when that person can't
have a real conversation about it.

You're talking about... you know
who I'm talking about, Katrina.

Knowing that doesn't tell me
what I should do.

I told you, talk about it again.

And if you can't, we're
gonna have a real problem

because Brian's right.

You could
really hurt his career.

Now, I'm gonna go,

'cause sometimes the answer is

to fall for someone who has
nothing to do with this place at all.

Robert, please tell me you haven't
gone to Louis's client meeting yet.

I was just on my way. Why?
Because I can take it from here.

I thought you told me you
couldn't be at two places at once.

Well, it doesn't matter anymore
because I dropped Judy's case.

What? Samantha,
why would you do that?

Same reason any attorney
would, because my client lied to me.

Thank you for covering for me,
but I've got it from here.

Uh, you're not taking anything
until you tell me what's going on.

I've got all night, Samantha.

I always thought it was the
state that took me from her.

Turns out it was Judy.

She put me back in the system

just when I thought
I had a real home.

So tell me why should I stick by
her when she didn't stick by me?

I don't know, Samantha,

but for her to admit all of
that must have killed her.

Didn't do wonders
for me either, Robert.

What are you saying?
I should throw her a party?

I'm saying that sometimes
being a parent

is living with choices
that break your heart.

It's not often that you get the
chance to make up for them.

You have a chance
to help this woman do that.

I think maybe
you should take it.

Even if I was willing to,
I still can't get her a deal.

Let's put our heads together
and figure something out.

What about Louis's client meeting?
He'll just have to understand.

If he doesn't,
you tell him to come see me.

Pretty nice office
for a fake consultant.

What are you doing here?
I'm here to tell you

you're negotiating
from a position of weakness.

'Cause first you try to stop me,

and then Kevin Miller offers
me a job out of nowhere,

telling me it's not worth it
to go against you.

It isn't.
Yeah, you keep saying that,

but I did some digging

and on the very same day the
Doyle shoes trades were made,

a woman, who is now your coo,

signed into our visitor's log
to meet with st...

Donna paulsen,
I think is her name, right?

Be very careful what you
say next and who you threaten.

Looks like I touched a nerve.

Nick, you have no idea
who you're dealing with.

What I know is that
stock manipulation is a crime.

So is blackmail.
We can avoid prosecution

for either of those
if you stop coming at me

and start working on stu
Buzzini's retirement party.

But you better do it soon,

because I'm not gonna wait
much longer.

If you're trying to play a
game of chicken with me,

you'll never win.

But I'm not
just playing with you.

I'm playing with you, stu
Buzzini, and Donna paulsen.

Really is a nice office.

What the hell is your problem?

It's bad enough that Samantha
farms out her responsibilities to you

without telling me,
but then you blow him off?

Will you just calm down?
Calm down?

I take one night off to prepare my
home for my unborn child's arrival

and I am supposed to enjoy it,
but I can't

because you and Samantha
don't give a shit about yourjobs.

Are you finished? No, I'm not.

Because when you stepped down,
it was like you said,

"hey, I can do whatever I want."

And apparently what you want
is to let this firm down,

let our clients down,
and most of all let me down...

All right, that's enough.

I'm not gonna listen to
another word of your delusion

because from the minute I stepped
down, all I've done is help you.

Help me? First, with
Harvey on the Malik case,

and then again with Harvey
on your poker bullshit,

and now with a partner
who's going through something

more important
than some client dinner.

Are you saying Samantha's
going through something?

Yes, Louis, I am.

I'm sorry, Robert. I...

It is just so much...
The pressure.

It's just... It's
too much. I know, Louis.

And lwish I could tell you
it gets easier, but I can't.

What I can tell you
is to do your best

not to take it out
on people around you.

You're right.

Thank you.

And I'm sorry I blew up at you.
You don't need to apologize.

You mind me asking what
is going on with Samantha?

Louis, if you think your people
have something that's going on,

you should probably
ask them yourself.

Donna, good, iangbacdme

sure. I could use come caffeine.

And since we both know "let's grab
coffee" is code for shit's gone sideways,

why don't you just tell me
what's going on?

Nick pavonotti
put the pieces together.

He knows we were
involved in that trade.

So the firm's in his crosshairs
now, too. Not just the firm.

He also knows that
you came to see stu that day.

I'm sorry, Donna.
I never should have...

Harvey, don't even bother going
down that road. I made my decision.

Now we have to decide
how to fix this.

We may not be able to fix it.

Don't tell me, someone got
burned by that trade.

Not just burned, scorched.

A police pension fund
sold at the wrong time

and took a huge hit.

This thing comes out, you're not
gonna be able to say, "no harm, no foul."

Son of a bitch.

Harvey, ifyou're out of time,

idontsee any other way.

Any other way than what? Giving
in to whatever this guy wants.

No, Harvey, we can't
ask stu to step down.

Stu knew the risk when he
agreed to make that trade.

And you can tell yourself that
to feel better,

but I'm the one
who convinced him to do it.

And I only did that because you
said it was just a civil violation.

Now it sounds like
he could go to prison.

Nothing's gonna happen to him
if he does this.

He won't do it. Then you're
gonna have to make him do it.

Yeah, you. Me?

You said it yourself,

you were the only one
who could have convinced him

to do this in the first place.
Because he trusts me,

and I'm not gonna take
advantage of that until you tell me

that there's nothing else
we can do.

Because there is
and you know it.

What is she talking about?

She's talking about going to Sean
Cahill to make him Bury this thing,

and he's gonna want to
help us even less than st...

If you want me to make stu
take the hit for all of us,

the least you can do
is give it a shot with Cahill.

Samantha.

I was afraid I'd never see
you again. You almost didn't.

Before you say another word,
I need you to look at me.

Take a good long look.
I don't understand.

I turned out just fine.

So as far as I'm concerned,

the problem wasn't that you cut
me loose, it's that you lied to me.

So if you want my help,
you're gonna tell Corey the truth.

He's gonna take responsibility
for his actions,

and then we're gonna get him
the best deal possible,

and itwon't ruin his life.
How do you know that?

Because I know what I'm
gonna say to that prosecutor.

Sean.

What a surprise
running into you here.

You hungry? Why don't
we grab a big fat steak?

Nah, I'd rather go vegan
because I know that look.

What look? The look that says

either "my Nana died,"
or you need a favor.

All right, I do.

A client of ours may or may not
have manipulated a stock at our behest.

We're being blackmailed for it,

and I need you
to Bury the whole thing.

Are you out of your mind?
Sean, I know it sounds bad...

No, it sounds illegal,

and you're lucky I'm not
arresting you right now.

Listen to me, we only
orchestrated this trade

so that hundreds of innocent
people could keep their jobs.

I don't care why you did it.
I'm not helping you.

I don't believe this.

I helped you put away the man
that cost your mother everything.

How's Mike doing, Harvey?

Because if memory serves,
I helped save his life.

You did, and I will
always be grateful.

So your idea of gratitude is
sticking your hand out for more?

I wouldn't be here
if there was any other way.

You know, I moved heaven
and earth for you once before,

and now the well is dry.

Then dig a little deeper

because if people found out
about that heaven and earth,

they wouldn't throw you
a parade.

You just admitted to stock
manipulation, so instead of threatening me,

you should be thanking me
for not slapping the cuffs on you.

So why don't you
go back to your office

and pray that that
blackmailer doesn't come to me

'cause if he does,
I'm not gonna Bury this thing,

I'm gonna Bury you.

Stu: All right, Donna, I'm here.

The last time I took
a meeting with you,

you got me to do
something I regret.

I hope you're not here to try to get
me to do something like that again.

I'm here to say that that trade
screwed over a pension fund

to the tune of $20 million.

I get it. You're telling me if I
don't give that piece of shit my job,

I'll lose my license. I'm telling
you it could get a lot worse

and I'm sorry.
Well, I don't want an apology.

I want a way out.
This is a way out.

Yeah, for you and Harvey,
not for me.

Stu... god damn it,

this whole thing was his idea.

Now instead of getting me out,

he wants me to take the bullet?

It's the only way... is it?

It took me 20 years
to get where I am,

and I'm not gonna surrender
to some blackmailer

unless my only option
is that or prison.

What if that is the choice?

Then I'll step down,

but I'll always remember it was
my friends that made me do it.

But let me ask you this?
What makes you think

he won't keep using this
against us anyway?

Harvey'll make Nick
sign something

where he implicates himself
if he ever brings it up again.

It'll be mutually
assured destruction.

Then ifyou'ii excuse me,
I got to get back.

Got a little work to do
while the firm's still mine.

I hope you're both here
to sign my plea offer

because I don't have time
for more negotiations.

I'm not signing anything.

I'm sorry?
She's not signing anything

because we both know
she didn't do it.

So you're saying
I'm free to go after the kid.

You are, and when you do,
I'll be representing him

andlwlbe giving the jury this.

And this is a rap sheet
from 20 years ago.

That's right.
Possession, theft, vandalism.

And then the name's
been redacted. So what?

You said I didn't know
anything about this community.

Well, you're wrong.
I grew up here.

Those crimes,
I committed them here.

That's my rap sheet.
That's a nice story,

but it has nothing to do with this
case. Samantha: Oh, yes, it does.

Because you wanted to know what Judy
did to get a lawyer like me in her corner.

She raised me,

and if you take Corey
away from her,

he won't have the chance to turn
into the productive member of society

that she can help him become.

So he's gonna plead down
to misdemeanor possession,

community service, and
itwill not go on his record.

And if I say no? Then I'll
take my story, my rap sheet,

and that 16-year-old kid... and
you tell it again in open court.

I can break a jury in a
number of ways. That's just one.

You raised this?
I did, and I'm proud of her.

Vveh, I suppose
that's punishment enough.

You have yourseres a deal.

I'll have my office
draw up the papen/vork.

Samantha, thank you. I couldn't
have done this without you.

I could say the same thing
to you, Judy.

If you're in here,
I take it Cahill said no.

He didn't just say no.

He said I was lucky
he wasn't arresting me,

which means stu
is our only hope.

Not necessarily. Please
tell me you got him to agree.

I did. It was hard
and it hurt, but I did.

Then he asked me
how we can be sure

that Nick won't keep
holding this over our heads.

Easy, we'll make him sign an
agreement which I can go draft right now.

If I'm right, Nick won't
have to sign anything

and stu won't have to step down.

If stu doesn't step down,
Nick goes to the sec.

In case you haven't been
paying attention, Cahill said no.

Maybe that's because you
didn't ask him the right question.

What the hell
are you talking about?

I'm trying to tell you
I have an idea.

Looking over your
future kingdom?

Sorry to disappoint you, but
you're not getting the crown.

And who the hell are you?
You heard from the b team.

Well, I'm the a team.

The guy you know nothing about.

Not my name, or where
I'm from, or what I do.

Well, I know who sent you,
and Harvey specter...

Harvey specter
didn't send me, Nick.

And neither did stu Buzzini.

Well, that just leaves
Teddy doer.

Whom I've never met in my life.

And yet here I am calling
your bluff. And what bluff is that?

The one where you think
anyone's going to believe

you're going to march
into Sean Cahill's office

and tell him your fairy tale.

Because blackmail is a crime,
and you don't have the balls for it.

I see what this is.

I'm not blackmailing anyone and
you can record me all you want

because it occurs to me

that I don't need stu
to step down at all.

I just have to do the thing
that you say I won't

and I'll have a clear path
to the throne anyway.

Buck no, no, no.

You don't call my quff.
I call yours.

So tell Harvey or stu
or whoever the fuck sent you

it didn't work
and get out of my firm

'cause make no mistake, come
tomorrow, this place is mine.

Working late?

I have to look for another way
to get noticed around here

now that you have
to cut me loose.

Look, bnan, I'm sure you're
busy, but I think we should talk.

About what?

About the fact that you're
an outstanding attorney,

and you don't deserve to
be hurt by a personal matter

that I should
have kept in check.

Katrina, you don't...
No, it's my fault.

You said it, and you were right.

I've been feeling...

Pulled to you
for quite some time.

I pretended itwasn't true
and that I could control it.

Well, I couldn't.

But I'm not going to let it
hurt your career.

That's not fair. I lashed out
because I was feeling guilty about...

You know...

And I'm afraid for my career.

And it feels like I can't
make the right decision,

and the wrong one is gonna
bring everything crashing down.

I'm feeling exactly
the same way.

So what are we gonna do?
Well, I have an idea.

I'm not completely sure
about it,

but the one thing
I do know is that

no one is going to believe
I traded you for Susan Carter

because she's a better lawyer.

Thatbad? Worse.

So what's your plan?

If we work together for a year
and it's successful,

which I know it can be,

youwibe onthejumorpaflneruack

you can have your own cases,

and I can say that you're ready

to be more than
someone's associate.

That sounds like a plan. Good.

Am I allowed to say
you're not just someone?

You probably shouldn't.

Thank you, Katrina.
Thank you, Brian.

As you can see,
it's clear stock manipulation

involving my boss
and his law firm

all orchestrated
to service a takeover.

It does appear that way.
Oh, it is that way.

And I'm not gonna let Stuart
Buzzini put a black Mark on my firm.

And you chose to do this after
hours because if you want a career,

you certainly don't want
to do this in broad daylight.

The thought did occur to me.
So what now?

You're gonna take
these guys down, right?

Well, now that all depends

because as much as I hate crooked
traders, I hate blackmailers even more.

What? I'm here because... you're
here because I wanted you here,

and before you say you don't
know anything about blackmail,

you do, but so does Sean
because I told him.

That's bullshit.

Shh. Save your breath.

You're gonna need to do
some thinking

because I'm gonna tell you
the exact same thing

that I told Harvey
when he came to me.

You're lucky I don't
arrest you right now.

Bullshit you said that.
Harvey: He did,

and whether you believe him
or not, I do.

I'm a whistleblower. I have
protections.

Not for blackmailing charges,
you don't.

'Cause as far as I'm concerned,

I think you're both
telling the truth,

which means you should
both be indicted.

But since I have discretion,
I can go after both or neither,

and I'm sure as shit
not just going after Harvey.

So the question I have
for you, Mr. Whistleblower,

is do you want
to be prosecuted today or not?

I'm sorry to have wasted
your time.

Nick, one more thing.

Stu asked me to let you know
that you're fired.

On what grounds?

You remember all those
trades I consulted you on?

They were real and they sucked,

but stu's a generous man.

He gave you
a healthy severance package.

Don't spend it all in one place.

Like it or not, Sean, we
still make a pretty good team.

Good team or not,
if he'd gone the other way,

you'd be wearing handcuffs
right now.

For what it's worth,

we're about to make an anonymous
donation to a certain pension fund.

We'll make them whole, Sean.
Good for you, Harvey,

but I don't want to know
about it

'cause this is where
the gravy train ends.

And if you ever
threaten me again,

I'll take you down on the spot.

Sean.

Harvey.

Louis, what are you...
I wanna ask you something

and you don't have
to answer, but...

If this is about the Chelsea
Conner case, lhave_.

It's not about the case.

Katrina, did something happen
between you and Brian?

What?

The night I brought you your
new business cards, remember?

You were upset.

You said you didn't have
love in your life.

And then yesterday, I bring
his name up and you get weird.

I just want you to know,
Katrina,

I care about you
and if something happened...

Yes and no, Louis.

Yes and no. What does that mean?

Brian and I developed feelings
for each other.

We didn't mean to,
and we didn't act on it,

but it got complicated and
we messed up that deposition.

And I know you must be thinking,

"he's married."
And I'm horrible...

Katrina, I don't think
any of those things.

You don't?
No, things like this happen.

I know that as well as anyone.

The only thing
I think about you is that

you are the same brilliant,
wonderful, quirky woman

that I've had the honor of
working with all these years,

and that's never gonna change.

You really think that? Yes.

Thank you, Louis.

Come on. Bring it in.

Unless you're worried, 'cause
if you find Brian attractive,

I can only imagine the temptation that
this pot of hotness must be over here.

Too soon?
No, Louis. Right on time.

Donna, are you calling
to get together again tonight

because that would be
three nights in a row,

and we might find
ourselves in trouble.

I'm not calling to get together.

Hey, what's going on?

You remember when I said
I had a work thing on my mind,

and I didn't wanna
talk about it? Of course.

I want to talk about it now.

I'm right here.
It's not always easy knowing

what the right thing
to do is in my job,

and it worked out
this time, but...

Sometimes it just sucks.

Well, you may not
believe this, Donna,

but I know exactly
what you mean.

How could you?

When Louis and Alex
got me out of that contract,

it was because Larry was shady.

But what if he wasn't?

What if it had
just been a mistake?

Well, I would still need them
to get me out of that contract

and iwouldn't care what it took
because it was my business.

And I would have put you all
in a pretty tough spot.

There really is more to you
than meets the eye, isn't there?

Anything you want to know,
I'm right here.

What if I said I wanted to
get together tonight after all?

Well, then I'd say that maybe it's
time for you to come over to my place.

Give me an hour.

Oh, and, Thomas,
take your vitamins.

Donna: I'm not here right now,

so if you want me
to call you back,

say something interesting.

Hey, I just thoughtwe could
get a drink and celebrate.

I leave it to you whether
that's interesting enough or not.

Automated voice: You've
reached the phone number of Mike Ross.

Please leave a message.

Hey, Mike, it's me. I got
a hell of a story to tell you.

It involves Kevin Miller,
stu Buzzini, Sean Cahill,

and that trade we made
for Teddy Doyle last year.

Give me a call
if you want to hear it.

Miss you, buddy.
