Was this whole thing designed to
get restoration back to the table?

It was designed
to either get them back

or to take a chance
on an up-and-comer.

Thomas isn't gonna want to be
in business with Simon

when he finds out about this.

And he's not going
to find out about it,

because we're not
gonna tell him.

Get on the ground.
Wallet and phone.

The same thing that happened
to you happened to me.

The deal you made was a pon to
get restoration hardware to the table.

You know? You're
damn right I know.

I'm taking Glen's offer
at the original rate,

and I'm putting out
an announcement about it.

You cannot do what we did.

I'm telling you, you'll
regret it. You didn't regret it.

You don't know
what happens over time

when you do something like that.

I'm upset
because I lost a client.

No, you are upset because
I chose Thomas overyou.

Louis didn't get the wrong
guy, and neither did you and I.

It's not about the wrong man.

It's about taking matters
into your own hands,

and what happens
when you do that.

You broke privilege, and
now, I'm gonna make you pay.

Thomas, hi. Thomas: Hey.

You busy tonight?

Actually, I think
I'm gonna work late.

Donna, you okay?
You sound upset.

I didn't know you were
gonna put out a press release

when you took that other offer.

Donna, the risk you run when
you're known as a nice guy is,

people think
they can push you around.

I had to show them that if you
push me, I'm gonna push right back,

and I'm sorry that resulted
in your firm getting fired.

We're not just getting fired,
Thomas. We're getting sued.

Oh, shit. Well, no
wonder you're upset.

You guys are getting sued
because of me.

Well, that's the thing.
It's not just because of you.

It's because of me.

Robefl.

If you're here for a drink,
pdloveto,

but I've already
had a long week,

and Rosalie's expecting me.

I'm not here for a drink.

What's on your mind?

That prison situation you had
a couple years back.

What about it?

Those men murdered an
innocent man. You knew about it.

And you didn't do anything.

You here to make me
feel like shit,

or is there a point
in there somewhere?

I'm notjudging you, Alex.

I did something some years
back that I'm not proud of, either.

And I guess I'm wondering

how do you live with it?

At first, I tried
putting it out of my mind.

But then it kept
popping back up.

Then I thought
about doing something,

but anything I tried, I'd
just end up in prison myself

for something I didn't do. Hmm.

So, I guess the question is,

can you do something
about what you did?

No, I can't.

Then all you can do is try and make
up for it somehow the rest of your life.

You stuck around, and ate the
rest of my Chinese, didn't you?

You think Laura's gonna let me
get egg rolls and fried rice at home?

Look, I wanted
to thank you for staying late.

It means a lot.

Don't mention it, Robert.
Whatever you need, I'm here.

You know that.

I know this sweet and sour
chicken isn't gonna eat itself.

No, itwon't...

Samantha, you still there?

Robert, call 911!

Samantha!

I'm at...

Samantha, talk to me.

God damn it.

Dispatcher:
911. What's your emergency?

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: Harvey. What are you
doing here? We have a problem.

Come in.

What is it?

Long story short,

Simon lowe tried
to screw over Thomas Kessler.

You mean that lease deal that
came across my desk was bullshit?

Yes, that's what I mean.

Harvey, I know Thomas
is one of my oldest clients,

but you can't tell him.

We're way past that, Louis.
Donna told him.

What? How could she even know?

Because I told her.

Why the hell would you do that?

Because she knew
something was wrong,

and I didn't know
what else to do.

I told her to give me some time,

so I could fix it.

But before I could,
she told him.

Then Thomas bailed,

and Simon suspected
what happened.

Let me guess. He fired us.

He didn't just fire us, Louis.

He hired Daniel hardman
to sue us.

Say that again.

Simon hired... no, tell me again

that Donna put her goddamn
relationship above us,

and now, Daniel fucking
hardman is suing my firm.

You want to get pissed off
at Donna,

or you want to figure this out?

I want to figure this out.

And I sure as shit know you
didn't come here without a plan,

so, what do you have?

As I see it,
we have two options,

the first of which
involves going to Robert.

Pass.

Look, he's the only one of us

that actually
gets along with hardman.

It's the only chance we have

of getting him to be reasonable.

And you and I both know

that there isn't
a frozen dick's chance in hell

that that rat
is gonna be reasonable.

Then tomorrow morning,
you and I need to go in there

with an offer so good,

Simon has no choice
but to take it.

And Daniel's left with nothing
but a frozen dick in his hand.

Robert, what are you doing here?

I came as soon as I found out
where they took you.

My purse, it had, um...

Don't worry about it.

The important thing is,
you're here.

I am so sorry, Samantha.

I never should have
kept you so late.

It's not your fault, robefl.

If anything, I should have
had my guard up.

This isn't on you.

This is on that piece of shit
who did this to you.

You're right. We need
to get to the police station.

I want to make a statement.
You can do that tomorrow.

Right now, you need to rest.

If they have any chance of
catching this guy, the first 24 hours...

Samantha, whatever we
have to do to make this right,

I'm gonna be right there
with you.

But tonight, you're staying
put and getting better.

Okay.

Thanks for being here, Robert.

I'll always be here for you,
Samantha.

Robert. You need something?

Yeah. You hear about this
hardman-pierpont malls thing?

I did. Alex told me.

What did he say?
He said he wasn't too happy

with Donna making him look
like shit with his own client.

Hmm, can't blame the
man forthat no. You can't.

Robert, are you okay?

Because ever since
that thing with Louis...

I'm fine, Samantha.
Do me a favor.

Get to know
everything there is to know

about this whole
hardman situation.

You never know
how it's gonna shake out.

Harvey, Louis,
good of both of you to come.

Can I offer you a
beverage? Oh, actually, yeah.

I'll take a nice, tall glass
of suck a bag of dicks,

because this thing's
ending right now.

What is that?
We're doubling the money

that you lost
when Kessler backed out.

This says that Kessler
found out about

the restoration deal
because of a clerical error.

Harvey: That's right.

Information was included

on certain deal memos
that were just...

Bullshit! You told
Alex Williams.

And a clerical error isn't
gonna cut it with his board.

They need a head to roll.

Louis is just too stupid
to understand that.

You arrogant son of a bitch.
You always underestimated me.

And you're underestimating me,

because if I'd wanted
to settle with you,

I wouldn't have
called Daniel hardman.

I thought you said
you called him.

Did I? I must have made
a clerical error.

Regardless, it's Louis'
firm now, not yours.

And, Louis, we go to court,
the world's gonna discover

that your firm can't be trusted,

and then you will be
the king of nothing.

But if you admit that Harvey
broke privilege, this can all go away.

I see what this is.

You want to use that admission
to come after Harvey's license.

Look at that. I didn't think
you had it in you to figure it out.

Let me tell you something
that you will never figure out.

Leaders never betray
their partners.

Let's save the betrayal talk

for Harvey's ethics hearing,
shall we?

I imagine I can win this lawsuit

and have it scheduled
by the end of the month.

You do this, I promise you,

it'll be the biggest
regret of your life.

No, Harvey.
My biggest regret is,

I wasn't the one to rip
Jessica's name off the wall,

so, I'll just have to settle
for ripping yours off instead.

Good day, gentlemen.

Harvey, how did it
go with hardman?

It didn't.

What does that mean?

It means he's not just suing us.

He's trying to get
a guilty verdict

so, he can use it
and come after my license.

What?

No, he can't do that!
He can, Donna,

because I broke privilege,
and he knows it.

But you didn't break privilege.

I'm the one who told Thomas.

And I'm the one who told Alex,

and that's how they think
Thomas knows.

So, what are we gonna do?
We aren't doing anything.

Louis and I are handling this.

But if I told them
that it was me and not you...

You'd just make it worse.

We told them
it was a clerical error,

and you'd be proving we did
what they're accusing us of.

Harvey, I'm responsible
for this. I want to help.

I'm sorry, Donna, but...

I get it. If! Really
wanted to help,

I never would have told Thomas
in the first place.

I was gonna say
the genie's out of the bottle.

We can't put it back in.

But what you can do, is let
Louis and I do what we have to

to get us out of this.

Samantha, how are you doing?

Physically, I'm fine. Mentally,
I am pissed the fuck off.

You want to talk about it? Because
we can get you some counseling.

This isn't
about my feelings, Robert.

I got mugged like 30
other people that night.

The police aren't gonna do
anything about it, and you know it.

What are you getting at?

I want the name of your investigator
and a few days off to handle this.

You think I'm gonna let you
track down this guy yourself?

Listen to me...

Let's say you find him.
What happens then?

You hear of an eye for an eye?
That's what happens.

Look, if someone attacks you,
they attack me.

So, we're gonna go to my guy
and find this son of a bitch.

But when we do,
we turn him over to the da

and let them do what they do.

No, that won't work!

I'm not asking, Samantha.
I'm telling.

If you wantjustice,
you're gonna get it.

That's the only way
this happens.

Okay. We'll do it your way.

Just give me the name
of your investigator.

Harvey.
What an unpleasant surprise.

Well, it's about to get more
unpleasant, because I got to thinking,

if Simon was willing to double
deal behind Thomas' back,

what's to stop him from
doing it with someone else?

That is evidence
of an off-the-books meeting

between two of the largest
mall owners in america,

divvying up retailers
and colluding on rents.

So, I'm giving you a one-time
opportunity to save Simon aninvesfigafion.

Well, Harvey, you're right.

Simon did get into a room with
westhaven, and it was off the books.

But they weren't colluding.

They were discussing
a merger. Bullshit.

I represented him. He never
said anything about this.

I'd be happy to show you
the offer we made to them.

And I assure you, they have
a copy in their files right now.

Because you went back
and created a paper trail.

Which means all you have on Simon
are a couple of dates on a calendar.

And all you have on me
is conjecture about what I may

or may not have done.
No, Harvey.

I have a phone call you made
to Travis Tanner

the night before
restoration backed out.

Turns out, Travis just happens to
represent the competitor of Simon's

that was drawing up an offer to
restoration when Kessler backed out.

Do you think Tanner will protect
you when I get him on the stand?

You son of a bitch.

Now, now. Name-calling
won't get us anywhere.

Or maybe itwill.

Because I'm willing
to drop this whole thing

if you will do me the simple courtesy of
putting my name back up on your wall.

You would have to resign,
of course.

But at least, you'd be able to slink
away and start up somewhere else,

like you did to me.

You really think I'm gonna let
you get away with this, don't you?

I think you did
what I'm accusing you of,

and the chickens
are coming home to roost.

Robert: Are you up to
speed on hardman? I am.

Robefl, he's not gonna give up,

and if this thing plays out
the way it's headed...

I know. That's why I came up
with this.

Are you crazy? No, I'm not.

But I need you
to make that happen.

Well, then
think of something else,

because I'll never be able
to convince him to do this.

Samantha, you have convinced
people of a hell of a lot more than this.

Because I could get to them.
He won't even take my call.

Well, he's sure as shit
not gonna take mine.

You can use his hatred of me
to...

You, me... itwon't make a
difference. He hates us both.

And if we don't do this... I
know what's at stake, Robert.

Then I need you
to get this done.

Because I agree,

if this thing plays out
the way that it's headed...

All right. I'll make it happen.

Thomas: Louis.

This is only the second time
you've ever come to my home.

First time I was here, I told
you that I got you out of a jam.

This time, I'm asking you
to get me out of one.

If you're talking about
Simon lowe suing your firm,

I heard about that,
and I'm sorry.

He's not just
suing the firm, Thomas.

His lawyer's using the suit to
come after my partner's license.

You mean Harvey specter.
Yes, I do.

So, as your first lawyer and your
friend, I'm asking you to help me.

Help you how?

Simon's lawyer is trying to
prove that Harvey broke privilege,

and the only people they can go
after are Harvey, Alex, Donna...

And me. That's right.

And Daniel hardman
has not subpoenaed you yet,

but it's only a matter of time.

And you want me to what?
Leave town?

Or worse yet... no, Thomas...

No, I don't believe this, Louis.

The guy helped Simon lowe
try to screw me over,

and you want me
to cover for him.

Thomas, listen to me.
I know you value honesty,

so, I'm gonna be perfectly honest
with you. Simon was a bigger client.

And Harvey should have sided with
him, but he tried to protect you anyway.

And if you don't cover for him,

all it's gonna do is take down
a good man who I care about.

I'm sorry, Louis.

Ifthis Daniel hardman subpoenas
me, I won't perjure myself.

I assume you're here
to discuss my pending action

against your firm. I am.

I'm also here to drink this
30-year scotch with an old friend.

I appreciate that, Robert.

But what's the saying? "Never
trust Greeks bearing gifts"?

I look Greek to you?

You look like a man who's
trying to have it both ways.

And you look like one who's
letting a vendetta cloud hisjudgment.

They took my firm, Robert.
It's not a judgment. That's a fact.

And from what I recall,

you all but handed it to them
with your indiscretions.

If you're here to litigate the
past... fuck the past, Daniel.

I'm here to work something out.

What will it take for you
to drop this thing?

I said what it would take,

my old firm back and
Harvey specter's resignation.

Now, you know I
can't do that. Why not?

Because Rachel married
his protege?

Because you and Jessica broke
the glass ceiling together?

We were friends
before any of that.

We talked about
starting a firm together.

I know that we did. Then
why are you siding with them?

They stole everything I built,
Robert, forced me out in disgrace,

and I have been in the
wilderness ever since.

And until my name is up on
that wall, I'm not dropping this.

Then what if I can get
your name up somewhere else?

You mean rand kaldor.

Ever since I left the firm,
they've been one man down.

You could come in and...

And what?

They hate you as much as I hate Harvey.
Why would they throw you a lifeline?

Because you're Daniel
goddamn hardman, that's why.

Okay, Robert.

You get Eric and Ellen to
go in on this, I will let this go.

But if you can't,

our friendship isn't gonna stop
me from taking Harvey down.

So, how'd it go with Daniel?

Harvey: It didn't.
What do you mean, it didn't?

He already backdated an
excuse, and not only that.

He found out I went to Tanner
behind Simon's back.

Wait, you did what?

I was trying to save Thomas'
deal without telling him.

I had to go to somebody...

You know what? Never mind.
I don't give a shit.

But what we need to do is figure
something out, because this is my firm,

and I'm not gonna let that
son of a bitch take it from me.

Louis...
Why did you have to tell her?

That's what I don't get. Why?
He was my client for 13 years.

I wouldn't have told her.

Yes, Louis, you would have.

Last year, you came to me
about putting Sheila over the firm.

And I told you as managing
partner, I wouldn't do it,

but as your friend, I would.

If I had asked you
about telling Donna,

you would have done
the same thing.

You're right. I would.

God damn it!

What's going on, Louis?

Thomas said
that he wouldn't help us.

You mean he wouldn't help me.

Yeah, I guess that's what I mean.
Why couldn't Donna just wait for you?

I don't know, Louis.
I really don't know.

You think you would have come
through if she had?

I'd like to think so.

Yeah, well, I do, too.

'Cause let's face it, Harvey,
you pretty much always do.

You're right, Louis. I do.

And right now, I think I can.
What do you got?

They said a head
needs to roll on this.

What if, instead of one head
rolling, we give them two?

Good. You're here.

I was going over my testimony
and could use another set of eyes.

I don't know
how to tell you this.

I talked to Cameron Dennis.

The guy's friends put him
at a different location, and...

Don't you fucking say it.
Samantha, I'm sorry.

I never should have
listened to you.

Look, I know you're upset...

Save it. I've got something
to take care of.

So, what are you gonna do,
hire someone to break his legs?

God damn it, you told me
if we did this right,

there would be justice.
Where is the justice?

That son of a bitch gets off, you
know what that makes me? A victim.

I am not a victim, Robert!

One of my foster parents
would hit me.

It's why I joined the service,
why I learned self-defense.

I can't be a victim again,
Robert. I just can't.

All right, then.

We'll go the other way.
What are you talking about?

Cameron Dennis said that if any new
evidence came to light, he'll prosecute.

Let's get to doing that, then.

No. You took a risk once
to get me this firm.

It's time I took a risk for you.

God damn it, Ellen, there's
got to be something you'd...

Well, in that case, go to hell.

Well, how much?
What's the bastard's price?

There is no price, Robert.

He said no amount of money
or clients

would make up for seeing
his firm get torn apart.

But what about Ellen? You
try horse-trading with her?

I did,
and I struck out there, too.

God damn it, Samantha!
I got Daniel to agree!

He thought I came up
with rand kaldor on the fly,

and I sold it to him.

What do you want me to say?

I want you to tell me
exactly what happened.

Because Eric kaldor and Ellen rand
are two of the greediest people I know.

So, if you're trying to tell me
that they're standing on principle,

I'm calling bullshit!

And it's pretty clear
what happened.

Eric tried to force
something down your throat,

and you let your pride
get in the way, like always.

Robert, I offered him
halfyour client list,

a dividend stream from your equity
share, a no-poaching commitment...

And if the carrot doesn't work,
you use the goddamn stick.

And threaten him with what?
We took half the firm from him.

There is nothing left to take.

I'm sorry, Robert.

I did everything I could. We're
gonna have to find another way.

Elaine: Gentlemen, you have
five minutes to make your case.

You don't, this will be the shortest
lunch in the history of lunches.

Then I'll get to it.

We offered Simon lowe
a settlement

no reasonable ceo would refuse.

So we want to see
if cooler heads can prevail.

This isn't about cooler heads.

This is about driving a wedge
between me and my ceo,

and that's not gonna happen.
That's the thing, Elaine.

There's no need to drive a
wedge, because it already exists.

That is an email chain between
me and Simon from 18 months ago.

As you can see, he was looking to
relieve you of your duties as chairwoman.

I don't know about you, but if
someone did that to me at my firm,

their ass would be on the
sidewalk 10 seconds later.

And if this is true, why didn't
you bring it to my attention then?

Because unlike Simon, I'm loyal
to the guy who writes my checks.

There's no two ways
about it, Elaine.

Simon's a threat to you.
Daniel hardman's a threat to us.

Do you want to neutralize
those threats,

or do you just want
to sit there eating salad,

while they neutralize you?

Gentlemen, I do believe
I'll bring this to the board

and see if
we can't reach a deal.

Just so we're clear,
this settlement doesn't close

if you only let Simon go.

Believe me, Mr. Specter, when
the board hears about all of this,

you won't have to worry about
Simon or Daniel hardman ever again.

Robefl!

Long time, no chat.

To be honest, I wasn't sure they
were gonna let me in.

So, I take it this means
you're accepting my offer.

Well, I don't accept
opening bids,

but if you want to tell me
what you need...

God damn it.
She didn't tell you, did she?

Eric... no, don't.

We worked together 20 years, all
right? I know when you're stalling.

Samantha didn't tell you, and
now, you're covering for her

like you always do.

All right, she didn't.

So, what, you want to mock me,

or you want to tell me
what it's gonna take?

It's simple, really. Daniel
hardman's name for yours.

Excuse me? I said you retire,

I take Daniel on as a partner,
and that is take it or leave it.

All right. Let's get to it. What
the fuck is your problem with me?

Yeah. Mypmbbm?

Why'd you take my firm from me?

See, that... that right
there! That's my problem.

All we ever heard
is that it was your firm,

your name, your reputation.

We had a little something
to do with it as well.

You think I didn't know that?

You think
I never gave you credit?

I think you never let us forget

that it was you that
got our names on the wall.

I did put your names
on the wall!

And maybe if you were a little
more focused on the big picture

than getting a pat
on your back...

Oh, you never had a problem
giving a pat on the back

to your little protege.
Don't you talk about her.

We would have never gotten
this place if it wasn't for Samantha.

So you always say. Although,
you never quite say how.

But if I had to venture a
guess... not another word, Eric.

If that's how you really feel
about me, the answer is no!

I'll take my chances
with my friend!

If you're talking about Ellen,
Ellen's not your friend.

I'm talking about
Daniel hardman.

Mark my words, we'll come
to some accommodation,

and then you and Ellen rand
can kiss my black ass.

Well, I don't know about you,
but I think we've earned a drink.

Well, I'd pour you one, Louis, but
I'm fresh out of peachtree schnapps.

All right, enough messing
around. What's the big news?

We got the suit dismissed, and
Daniel hardman is out of the picture.

Louis, that's great news.

I just wish I could see the look
on his face when he finds out

we got the better of him.

I hate to break it to you, but you
didn't get the better of anybody.

Louis: Robert,
what are you doing here?

More importantly,
what are you talking about?

I knew what you were up against,

so, iwent to Daniel as a
friend and offered him a deal.

What kind of deal?

I know what kind of deal,
because there's only one thing

that son of a bitch would
trade taking me down for,

and he told me what it is,
his name on our wall.

And I would never give him that.

It doesn't matter now, because
when Daniel heard that Simon got fired,

he thought I was playing him,

and he pulled the trigger
on an ethics hearing.

What the shit did you just say?

They set the date, Louis. When?

Harvey, before... when, Alex?

This says
the hearing's tomorrow.

They're summoning you, me,
Simon, Thomas, and Donna.

Which means we have less than
24 hours to get our story straight,

convince Thomas
to corroborate it,

and get Donna
the fuck out of town.

It's not gonna work, Louis.
Leave me alone, all of you.

I need time to think. Harvey...

Harvey: I don't want
to talk about it, Robert.

You know, I don't care
if one day,

they get me on any of
the other shit that I've done,

but to go down for this?

To go down to him?

Harvey, we can still...
No, we can't!

Look, he's got me
dead to rights.

Mike was dead to rights.
Look what happened to him.

This isn't ajury.
It's a fucking ethics board.

And I did exactly
what he said I did.

Harvey... motherfucker!

I said leave me alone.

I know I'm interrupting,
but can I come in?

Why not?

Sitting by myself doesn't seem
to be getting me anywhere.

Well, maybe this will.

Technically, you did not break
privilege when you told Donna.

In other words, I could throw
Donna under the bus.

I know you won't do it.
But it had to be said.

Then it's been said.

What?

If this were another firm, she
wouldn't even still be working here.

You saying we should fire her?

If you're asking me as a
name partner, I would say yes.

If you're asking me
as her friend, I would say...

There's no way in hell I am
ever letting that woman go.

Never thought in a million years

something like that
could come out of your mouth.

Well, maybe this place
is rubbing off on me.

You are all crazy.

But maybe, that's what
I love about it here.

He's gonna lose everything
because of me.

Donna, you never know
how these hearings will go.

You know, the worst part is, I
don't even know why I did it anymore.

I didn't sleep that night.

I just lay there wondering,
"what if Harvey can't get it done?"

And then I would tell myself,
"well, he always gets it done."

And then it was morning,
and I hadn't heard from him,

and Thomas' business
was at stake, and I just...

Donna, you told him
because you love him.

Love him? We just started
seeing each other.

I'm not talking about Thomas.

Third year of law school.

Rosalie went behind my back
about a pro bono we were doing.

We got in a huge fight,
and it broke us up,

'causelthought she betrayed me,

and she thought I thought
I was a better lawyer.

But she didn't betray me,
and I didn't think I was better.

And none of that had anything
to do with it anyway.

What does this
have to do with me?

I was afraid of committing.

Deep down, she knew it,
so, she closed the window.

And it made me realize

I didn't like being on
the other side of the glass.

I didn't do what I did to
make Harvey realize anything.

Neither did Rosalie. She
did it, so she could move on.

Harvey: Thomas, I appreciate
you seeing me on such short notice.

You said it was about Donna,
so, of course, I'll see you.

What's going on? It's simple.

Donna was the one
who told you about Simon,

but I want you to say it
was me. You want me to lie.

Look, I know you're a man
of your word,

but she risked all this because she knows
how much your business means to you.

Well, she worked her entire
life to get to where she is,

and the truth comes out,

she'll be barred from working in
a law firm for the rest of her life.

What am I not seeing here,
Harvey? How does all this protect you?

It doesn't.

I just don't see why she has to
stand in front of that firing squad, too.

All I'm asking you to do
is protect her,

like she protected you.

Oh, no, no, no.
You were the first one to take an offer.

Yeah, but then you went
to another firm.

Because back then, they
weren't gonna hire a man like me,

no matter what school I went to.

I could have got you in.

They hired Jessica.

Years later.
I couldn't wait for that.

I still think we would
have made a great firm.

Zane hardman.

Wait, why is your name first?

You let Jessica go first.

You let rand and kaldor.

Yeah, you're right.

I don't have to go first.
I know where I stand.

Go ahead, take it. Hardman Zane.

No. I don't want it now.

Mmm-hmm.
Excuse me a moment, Daniel.

Cameron?

Robert, I have some news, and
I thought I owed it to you to call.

Please don't tell her.

Alex: Robert, whatever it is,
I have to testify this morning.

I know.

Then what is it?

Remember when I said I
couldn't make up for what I did?

I think I can.

But I'm gonna need your help, and
you might not like what I need it for.

I know what it's like to live
with a weight on your shoulders.

And if I can help you
take it off,

why don't you go ahead
and tell me what you need?

Thomas. Can I come in?

Of course. I was just getting
ready for this morning.

I know. That's what
I wanted to talk about.

Look, if this is about Louis
coming to see you,

if I had known
he was gonna do that...

It's not about Louis coming to me.
It's about Harvey specter coming to me.

Harvey came to you? Last night.

What did he say?

He pretty much said that he
was about to lay himself down

on the train tracks for you, and
he wanted me to help tie him down.

I don't know
exactly what that means...

Who are you to him?

I don't know how to answer that.

I got itwhen Louis came to me.

This comes out, it hurts
his firm. It hurts his partner.

He wouldn't want
to see that happen.

But then Harvey came to me, and
all he seemed to care about is you.

So, if you can't tell me
who you are to him,

maybe you can tell me
who he is to you.

I don't know who he is, Thomas.

I just know that he's somebody

that I can't seem to figure
out how to cut out of me.

But I want to.

And I have wanted to,

and apparently, I tried to when
I told you what was going on.

But the truth is, I don't know
if I'll ever be able to.

Thomas Kessler shook my hand
and said yes to a deal.

He had no reason
in the world to back out

until Harvey specter
gave him one.

When you confronted him with
this allegation, what did he do?

He paid off my board
and got me fired.

Louis: It wasn't a payoff.

It was a settlement
that we offered you first.

Along with
a fabricated explanation

about Kessler finding out
due to a clerical error.

The contents of that offer
are not admissible here.

In other words, you're
preparing to change your story?

As far as I'm concerned, it's
time to get to the main course.

I call Harvey specter.

Where is she?

She said she didn't care
if she was summoned or not.

She couldn't watch.

What are you gonna do?

I don't know.

Daniel: Shortly after
Simon lowe told you

he was using Thomas Kessler
as a pawn,

Kessler pulled out
of their deal. Why was that?

If you're asking if I told him
about my client's plans, I didn't.

Then how did he find out?
I don't know.

Maybe restoration clued him in.

Maybe he overheard
someone at dinner.

Or maybe, it was
the clerical error nonsense

you tried to pull before.

What's nonsense is,

I did not share my client's
privileged information

with another client, yet he
brought this complaint anyway,

and he did it because
he knew pierpont malls

was about to drop their suit
against my firm

because it had no merit.

They dropped it because
you paid them to.

Mr. Specter, Mr. Hardman
has a point.

I find it hard to believe
that Thomas Kessler

wasn't informed by your office.

So I ask you, do you
stand by your answer?

I stand by the fact that
he has to prove what I did.

I don't have to prove
what I didn't.

Then I say it's time
we ask someone else.

Mr. Williams, did you
or did you not

inform Thomas Kessler
that his firm was being used

as a stalking horse?

No, I did not.

Then is it true Mr. Kessler
knew he was being used?

I can't speak to what
my client did or didn't know.

Then let's talk about
what you knew.

You got his original landlord

to make him
a better offer, did you not?

Yes, I did.

And there's nothing wrong
with using pierpont's offer

to get a better deal
for my client.

It's what they were doing to us.

Yes, but the difference is,
when he got the offer,

he turned it down.
Why would he do that?

Because_. Because, what?

Why would a man turn down a better offer
and then take out an ad in the journal

pronouncing the value of
integrity over profits?

It's because he knew
what Simon lowe was doing,

and you knew he knew.

And I remind you,
I will call Thomas Kessler,

and he will tell me the truth,
because he is a man of integrity.

All right. I knew.

And I told my client,
which was my obligation.

Finally. You knew because
Harvey specter told you.

No. I knew because
Robert Zane told me.

What? The hell I did.

I'm sorry, Robert. I can't
cover for you anymore.

You're not covering anything.

I had no reason
to break privilege.

Yes, you did. You saw a way to get
back at Harvey specter and Louis litt

for taking you down
as managing partner.

You knew if you broke privilege,

he would take a hit and you
would take the firm back.

Mr. Chairman, that is
a fabrication.

This is obviously a hitjob
on an innocent man.

If he's so innocent, then why do I
have an email from Robert Zane

informing me
of Simon lowe's duplicity?

What?

You're in on this?
Judge: Mr. Zane.

Is this true?

It is. I can't hide it anymore.

Oh, no.

They orchestrated this whole
thing. Ask Kessler.

Mr. Kessler, who was it,
Robert Zane or Harvey specter?

All I know is that Alex Williams
informed me of pierpont's plan.

I can't speak to who told him.

No. Travis Tanner admitted
Harvey called him the night before.

Then why isn't he here?

Obviously, because
he got to him!

Robert, as this is
a disbarrable offense,

I ask you again, under oath,
is this email real?

Did you do this?

I did.

Then do you have anything
to say in your defense?

Only that I did what I felt
was right at the time.

I didn't regret it then.

But I do now.

Robefl, why are you doing this?

I'm making up
for what I did wrong.

Well, I'm sorry to say,
but that's not enough.

You hereby forfeit
your license to practice law.

This matter's now closed.

How could you do it? Samantha.

You've been working
your whole life for this.

How could you just
throw it away?

I didn't throw it away. That's
what I need you to understand.

Well, I don't understand it.

How could you take the fall
for something you didn't do?

How could you do that to me?

Because I did something else,
and I can't live with it anymore.

What are you talking about?

That man that attacked you,
the one that we put away...

That's why you did this?

Robert, he got what he deserved.

He was killed, Samantha,
murdered in his own cell.

And it's my fault.

Now, he may have been a piece
of shit, but he was someone's son,

and he wouldn't have been in
there if it weren't for me.

Why didn't you tell me? Because
it wasn't your burden to bear.

But I am telling you now
because I need you to understand.

This is redemption for me.

What am I gonna do without you?

You've got your name on the
wall. You don't need me anymore.

The truth is,

you haven't needed me
for a long time.

I don't want to be alone.

You're not gonna be alone here.

You've got Louis
and Donna and Alex.

It's not the same thing.

You want to talk the same? I've
seen you and Harvey together.

You're peas in a pod.

Go to him. Seek him out.

And who knows?
Over time, you might even...

Might even what?

Nothing.

Now, come over here,
and give an old man a hug.

You looking for him, too?

I went to call Donna
after the hearing.

She didn't answer, but when I
came back, all you guys were gone.

There wasn't really
a reason to stay.

Alex, if you'd have told me
you were gonna do that...

That's why Robert
wouldn't let me tell you.

I know I need to thank him...

But you need to know why.
Yeah. I do.

Because, Harvey, sometimes
people are carrying around a burden

they need to put down that
has nothing to do with you.

What burden?

None of your goddamn business.

Stop moping around my office.
I'm retired.

I'm not dead.

And, Harvey, I knew
what I was doing.

I'm good with it.

Well, then if it's
all right with you,

what do you say,
to celebrate your retirement,

I finally take you out
for that burger?

You got it.

But not tonight.

Something like this happens,

makes you know
what's really important

and for me, it's Laura.

Hey.

You sure you don't want to
tell me what that burden was?

Isn't it enough I saved
your sorry ass?

And by the way,
most people get a gold watch.

I get a goddamn burger.

Why you gotta push it?
Now, we gotta get him a watch.

Hey. You want to get a burger?

Sorry, Harvey. Robert's right.

I need to get home
to the woman I love.

Shouldn't you be out
celebrating?

You'd think so, but losing Robert
kind of takes the charm off the victory.

Listen, Harvey,

I appreciate this, but I don't
need you checking up on me.

Where else do I have to be?

You know, I lost my mentor, too.

Jessica Pearson.

Robert used to
talk about her all the time.

What was she like?

Let's just say she was to me,
what he is to you.

Itwas hard losing her,
but it gets easier.

He believed in me.

He was the only one
who ever did that.

The only one who saw who I was.

All my baggage, all my flaws.

And he accepted you, anyway.

He didn't just accept me.
He loved me.

Not easy to find someone
like that in this world.

No, it's not.

What am I supposed to do

when I have a big victory
or a terrible loss,

and the only person I want
to run and tell isn't there?

What am I supposed to do?

Samantha, I'm so sorry,
but I have to go. Where?

I just have to.
