Harvey, I don't need a perp walk

or a front page headline.

I just want the person responsible.

Then hand me the deal we just negotiated

and justice will be served.

You know what, if this were anyone else but you,

I wouldn't even be giving the courtesy of this meeting.

Becky, we're both benefiting from this.

You've got nothing on my client.

And I'm gonna help you get the person responsible.

So let me just go do that?

You better make sure Miss Stone signs this.

Otherwise, we don't have a deal.

How long have we known each other?

Since you were in the D.A.'s office.

Then you know we'll have a deal.

Talk to ya.

How'd it go with the Department of Justice?

Follow me, you'll find out.

I get to sit in?

With your head down and your mouth shut.

This isn't a usual... Ah.

- What are you doing? - Quick.

Act like you're telling me something important.

I am telling you something important.

And then after the injunction,

you know, both parties decided to reassess...

my God.

That woman with Rachel,

I took the LSATs for her a couple years ago.

If she saw me, she could blow my cover.

Oh, really? And how would that go?

"Excuse me, when I was cheating for my LSATs,

that was the guy who took the test for me"?

Come on.

It could go down like that.

You don't know. People say things.

Miss Stone, correct me if any of this is wrong,

but you and I both know it's not.

Please address me and not my client, Mr. Specter.

You mean your client who purchased $10 million

in Lunardi Pharmaceuticals

and then a day later

word of their FDA approval got out

and the stock shot up to $30 million?

She purchased that stock for your clients,

Burt Kimball and Dean Morello,

based on a tip sheet handed out by your clients.

An allegation that tainted their reputation,

yet the D.O.J. looked into it and found nothing.

That doesn't mean it didn't happen.

I'll turn your client over in person, no handcuffs.

It'll be a country club prison.

And I'll make sure she's processed

as gently as possible as long as she admits

that she made this trade of her own accord.

It's a crappy deal wrapped in pretty paper.

Why aren't we dealing with the Department of Justice?

Because the D.O.J. wanted to put you behind bars

for seven years, and I got 'em down to 11 months.

Look, it's a great deal.

You're gonna sign it, you're gonna serve your year in prison,

and every night when you climb into your bunk,

you're gonna thank your lucky stars

that Harvey Specter negotiated on your behalf.

Nobody's ever gonna believe me,

and I don't have the resources

to fight this thing forever.

So I'll sign the goddamn deal.

But I'm not thanking anybody.

Harvey, you came through.

My company's reputation means everything to me.

Thank you.

So I trust we won't be hearing

from the Department of Justice again?

Unless you plan on inviting them

to the company's Christmas party, Bert, no.

I told Morello you could fix this for us.

Thank you, Harvey.

Reality's starting to sink in.

Gabby's a little wound up right now.

Let's give her a minute.

I've got the pretty papers in my office

for you to look over.

Keep an eye on her.

You here to make sure I don't change my mind

about the deal? No.

Would you?

You know, my father was a teacher.

He worked hard, followed the rules.

Last year, the district cut his pension

to save their budget.

I went to Wall Street so I could make some money

before getting into teaching myself.

I never thought I'd have to worry

if they let convicted felons teach.

Can I get you some water or something?

Oh...

I'm just gonna get you some water.

Hey. I got it.

Thanks.

So that girl you were with earlier,

she a friend of yours? Theresa, yeah.

She used to be a paralegal here.

We were pretty close.

She worked at Pearson, Hardman?

Mm-hmm.

And I just had the unique pleasure of giving her

the summer intern tour for prospective employees.

- Really? - Yeah.

She's in her second year of Harvard Law,

meeting with the partners as we speak.

- Huh. - I know.

We used to do everything together.

And now, if she gets this job, she will technically be my boss.

Oh, God.

I'm so sorry, Rachel.

Do you need to talk about it?

No. Not now. Thanks.

Oh, no, no. No.

What?

She's gone.

You left her alone

to get her a water?

What, she didn't want a latte?

I was trying to be helpful.

You were very helpful to her.

You didn't see her, Harvey. She was scared.

She was a wreck.

Maybe that had to do with the fact that she was about

to go to prison for 11 months.

I think she was having the reaction of an innocent woman.

And what was telling you that?

Your years of investigative experience?

You know, I just... I listened to her, that's all.

Let me tell you something, okay.

Just because a pretty girl tells you a story

doesn't mean it's true.

If she'd gone to trial,

the burden of proof would be on the prosecution,

yet her own lawyer

told her to take the deal.

Not to mention that innocent people

don't run.

I think this fell out of her purse.

I found it here.

Why are you telling me this now?

Because you were mad at me before.

So your answer to that

is to delay giving me important information?

Well, when you put it like that.

Okay, I got to smooth things over with the D.O.J.

That phone is our only lead.

Try not to lose it before I get back.

Okay?

Becky, there's been a slight hiccup

on the Gabby Stone business.

I don't want to hear about any hiccups.

Did she sign the deal or not?

Well, she was about to.

My associate left her alone for a second,

and she took off.

Gabby Stone's in the wind?

"In the wind"? Really?

The woman isn't a world-class felon.

She'll turn up.

Well, it better be soon, or the deal's off the table

and I'm going after your clients.

That's funny.

I don't think so.

The SEC decided they had no case,

and their burden of proof is lower.

If you had something on my clients,

you would have charged them already.

Harvey, I went out on a limb for you.

You make me look bad on this,

I promise you, you'll regret it.

Donna, where the hell's Mike?

Hey, anyone know a guy named Bradley?

Ball!

The guy's who about to miss the jumper.

Do you have a last name?

Brickstein.

Do I look like I have time for jokes?

Reger.

Bradley.

Mr. Reger.

- Ohh. - Come on, Reger.

Bradley Reger!

Sorry, can I help you?

I'm sure you've heard about the investigation

regarding Gabby Stone.

Are you with the Department of Justice?

I...

I have several questions for you.

Did you help Gabby when she was charged

with insider trading?

Of course I did.

She wasn't just a trader. She was my friend.

I recommended a lawyer and let her borrow some cash

after you guys froze her account.

That was Henderson.

He's a stickler for procedure.

Tell me, when was the last time you saw her?

Bradley, let me inform you

that withholding knowledge of the whereabouts

of a known fugitive is a federal offense.

Do you understand me?

Gabby came in here 20 minutes ago.

She asked to borrow my keycard to Morello Assets offices,

and I gave it to her.

Well, the department appreciates your honesty.

Oh, and, Mr. Reger, put a little arc in your jump shot,

all right? If poor shooting were a crime,

I'd be forced to arrest you right here.

It's embarrassing.

Go get 'em.

Harvey, I know where she is.

What are you doing here? I told you I'd get her.

And I would let you.

I just wanted to make sure she didn't get away again.

The water was right outside the room, okay?

And you said innocent people don't run.

Do guilty people run back to the scene of the crime?

You don't know what she's doing.

She could be planning on taking a baseball bat

to all these computers for all we know.

Gabby, what are you doing?

That stock was on my tip sheet.

It was on mine.

If I could find that tip sheet,

I could prove my innocence.

Is this what guilty people do?

I know they're your clients,

but can you help me, please?

I'm sorry.

You can either come with us,

or we'll have the Department of Justice bring you in.

So I meant to ask you,

how did your friend's interview go yesterday?

Theresa? She didn't get the internship.

So how do you feel about that?

To be honest, I'm relieved.

I mean, she would have been a daily reminder

of what I couldn't do,

that I'll never score high enough

on the LSATs or get into law school.

You know, that doesn't have to be true.

It is. I need to accept

that I will always be a paralegal

because of this stupid test.

I had a hard time sleeping last night.

You want to know why? No.

Because Gabby Stone is innocent.

Oh, I slept like a baby.

I don't think you believe that.

You think she's innocent too.

You just don't want to pursue it.

She's not our client.

No, Morello is our client.

And if someone else in that office is responsible

and they do it again, won't that put our client

in jeopardy?

Ahh. Ooh, yep.

I'm right, and you know it.

And now you have the responsibility

to investigate.

Did you tell that guy at the basketball court

that you were an attorney for the Department of Justice?

Not explicitly.

I mean, people hear what they want to hear.

I won't impersonate a federal agent again.

Probably a good idea.

Yeah.

Oh, hey, Mike, can I give you

my roommate's cat for the weekend?

Let's get it over with. I have some actual work to do.

No, no, no, it's not what you think.

It's just very annoying,

and I figured if you were looking after it,

the cat's as good as gone, right?

Gentlemen.

What's going on?

Some sort of shenanigans?

Uh, no, it's nothing.

It's just stuff between associates.

I said, "What's going on?"

Seth's just giving me a hard time

for losing Gabby Stone yesterday.

Oh, but we know at this firm

that we don't dwell on our colleagues' mistakes,

right?

I mean, just because one

of your fellow associates is incompetent doesn't mean

you have to constantly remind this moron

what a careless idiot he really is, right?

You.

Harold, I called you two nights ago,

and you didn't answer your phone,

which is really funny,

because you're a first-year associate,

who's lucky enough to be working here

at Pearson/Hardroao, so, when I need to get a hold of you,

you will be reachable at all times.

I don't care if you're in a coma,

hospital that's been burning down,

your mother's about to jump off the Brooklyn Bridge,

you will pick up your phone.

- Absolutely. - Got it?

Yes.

Okay, thanks. Can you leave my office, please?

Harvey, once this whole Morello thing gets fixed,

remind me to be irritated with you for not billing more

on the Swindon merger.

The fact is mergers are boring, okay?

Plus, I'm busy. Also, mergers?

Boring.

How'd you get these?

Oh, you mean tickets to the Royal Shakespeare Company's

production of King Lear?

This show was sold out

the minute these tickets went on sale.

I live for King Lear.

- How did you know that? - It's my job to know that.

But why?

Louis, your billables are outstanding.

You've landed three high-profile clients

in a month, and I want to show you my appreciation.

And I'm very happy that you're excited.

So should we get dinner before or after the play?

Uh, um, I-I don't know.

Jessica, do you remember when we went

to that Yankee game and you caught that foul ball

and you ate all my nachos?

Did we go to the steakhouse that night?

Oh, that was a good meal.

That was fun.

Have a good time.

You know what, Louis, dinner after.

I'll have Norma make a reservation.

Fantastic.

Dean, Gabby Stone's still making noises

about these tip sheets.

She insists that she had a different sheet

on the day she bought Lunardi.

She was lying.

I understand, but, after she broke

into your offices last night,

the D.O.J. might be inclined

to start rattling cases again.

So, for the record,

you're telling me the truth, right?

Harvey,

you work for me, remember?

Well, as your lawyer, I need to be able

to tell the D.O.J. we're all aboveboard.

- Of course. - So you won't mind

if I look around for myself?

We've had a clean record

for 50 years.

Please, Harvey, look around.

Why is that on my desk?

'Cause the LSATs are a week from Saturday.

Great. Go away. I'm busy.

There are only four tests a year, which means,

if you miss this one, you're gonna have to wait

another three months. I can do math too,

Good Will Hunting.

When did I say I was ready to retake the LSATs?

I thought that, after our talk...

Nothing about our talk said I'm interested

in bombing the test again.

You're not gonna bomb it again.

- How do you know? - Because the first time

you took it, you were missing

one essential ingredient...

Me.

Not interested.

If I let you help me,

will you leave me alone?

Mm-hmm.

- Okay. - I'll see you later.

Get excited.

Whoo-hoo.

Hey, I forget, why are we looking into Gabby Stone again?

Oh, right, because I said she's innocent,

and now you agree with me.

No, I don't agree with you

that she's innocent,

but, if there's even the slightest chance

that someone else is involved,

they're putting the whole company at risk,

and I can't have that.

Okay, so you disagree with what we agree about?

Oh, I'll agree with that.

I don't feel sorry for Gabby Stone at all.

Because?

I found her.

I was her immediate supervisor.

I nurtured her.

Then she tries to cheat and give us a bad name.

How commonplace would you say cheating is here?

It's not. It's not the kind of shop we run.

So when Miss Stone made the trade

and the investment tripled in value,

you weren't suspicious?

My job's not to worry about the traders

that are making money.

My job's to worry about the traders who aren't.

So how exactly does the tip sheet system work?

Our technical analyst predicts stocks

that are likely to have larger-than-expected volatility.

These predictions are handed out to our traders

on a daily basis in the form of a tip sheet.

All these traders get the same tip sheet?

Exactly. They're printed on red paper,

so they can't be copied.

Every trader is responsible for returning

their sheet at the end of the day,

so they can be shredded. So no records exist?

We keep electronic copies.

I'll need to see those copies for the last year.

I thought you might.

I'm assuming you own a computer.

One more thing.

I'll need to see a list of all the trades.

Morello Assets made in the last year.

Well, I can't give you that.

Why not?

Tip sheets have expired.

But our current positions... that's proprietary information.

And I can't release that on just your say-so.

That's not a request.

We need to protect the company.

And we're covered under attorney-client privilege.

And I'm telling you I'm not giving you sh...

You think I don't know what attorney-client privilege is?

You know, you corporate lawyers look down your noses at us

because we didn't go to Ivy League schools.

Just because I don't have a fancy degree

doesn't mean you get to come into my house

and order me around.

And you go whine to Morello

and I'll knock you on your ass like the pussy you are.

Well, Sam, I'm sorry that you feel that way,

but I've been working for your boss Dean Morello

for a very long time,

and let me tell you something.

You try to stonewall me,

you'll be out on the street in less than a week.

As for the other stuff,

do I think that I'm smarter than you?

You're damn right I do.

But if you think that means

that I can't kick your ass up and down this floor,

take a swing and see what happens.

I didn't think so.

That was amazing.

It was like he was Mr. T and you were Rocky,

but not like Rocky at the beginning when he was all scared

of Mr. T, but at the end,

when he was all like,

"Ooh, give it your best shot."

You know?

"Adrian!" Yes!

That's funny, but you might want to wipe that grin

off your face. What? Why?

Because without those trades,

we don't have sh..., and your little girlfriend's

gonna rot in jail.

And by the way, you got to work on your Stallone.

You need a lower register.

"Uhh."

That was an incredible Stallone.

I've been doing that since I was a kid, and you can't touch it.

- "Uhh." - Don't do that

with food in your mouth. No, I swallowed it.

"Uhh." There's food in your mouth.

- "Adrian." - That's disgusting.

Come on. You got this one.

It's "A".

No, it's "C".

Actually, it's "D". It's definitely "D".

Final answer?

Yes, "D".

It's "A".

Rachel, you got to remember

they're asking why the argument is most vulnerable.

I can make the case

that they're all vulnerable arguments.

You could, but your first instinct was "A".

You got to go with your gut. Right.

So what if my gut can find

the exception where "A" is wrong.

What am I supposed to do then?

- You ignore it. - I can't.

That's easier said than done.

The test isn't trying

to trick you, Rachel. But sometimes it is, Mike.

- Well, you got to let that go. - I can't.

- Why not? - 'Cause I don't want

to get any questions wrong.

Okay. I think we found your problem.

You're so afraid of getting fooled by a few trick questions

that you're letting it mess you up with all the other ones.

Look, Rachel, you want to get into Harvard,

you need a 170. Okay?

If you let a few of these trick questions go,

you're gonna be fine.

But if you keep trying to be perfect,

you're gonna overthink this whole thing.

You're gonna end up with a 130.

Rachel.

Nobody gets all the trick questions.

What about you?

First grade,

they gave me an achievement test.

I scored in the 99th percentile,

so they kept giving me achievement tests

all the way up to the eighth grade level.

And I kept getting in the 99th percentile

with every one of 'em.

You couldn't get the 100th?

There is no 100th.

Next question. Come on.

King Lear.

I happen to like King Lear.

And unlike some people I know,

Louie's references don't begin and end with Top Gun.

Hey, I love Louis, and I don't care

what you say, I am not leaving my wingman.

See, that's funny, because that's from Top Gun.

He's a wild card. Flies by the seat of his pants.

Think I can't quote Top Gun.

Get the hell out of here.

Oh, that was good.

Hey, Mike.

Burt Kimball's coming to see me.

I need you in the meeting.

Oh, the number two at Morello?

Bet he's coming to yell at you

after your big showdown there yesterday.

If you need me, I got your back.

Thinking about finally going to law school?

Oh, no, I'm helping Rachel study.

Pretty paralegal. Got it.

Okay. It's not like that.

It's exactly like that.

Oh, that reminds me.

How did you manage to take the LSATs for a woman?

What do you mean?

We took the test the same day.

She signed my name on hers, and I signed hers on mine.

Why? What's so funny?

I just pictured you in drag.

I could pull that off.

I've got soft features.

I want to apologize for Samuel's behavior.

He's had a chip on his shoulder

ever since the Department of Justice

investigated Miss Stone's malfeasance.

He's very protective of the firm.

That's a good man to have in your corner.

Well, so are you.

In these folders, you'll find

every trade made by Morello Assets in the last year.

Personally delivered by Burt Kimball, I'm flattered.

Well, we just want to make sure

you've got everything you need, Harvey.

We really appreciate your diligence.

Now I better get back to the office.

The Australian markets are just opening up.

Good to see you. Always a pleasure, Burt.

Harvey, this is great.

We can take these tip sheets and put them...

what are you doing?

This guy's not that friendly

to his own mother.

He's hiding something, and I'm pissed.

What are you talking about?

Those aren't the real trades.

Okay. So how do we get them?

Right. How do I get them?

Hmm.

Hello?

You figure out how to get

the most profitable trades yet, Mike?

The Morello brokers hang out at a bar

called the Closing Bell.

I'm on my way now. Good.

Hey.

Harvey, come on.

We got to save Gabby.

Gabrilini.

Oh. Oh, you got a sweet place, dude.

Don't ever call me dude.

Do you think that maybe I could take it off your hands,

Tada.

Good.

Hey, when can we...

I'm still upset that I didn't get the internship.

It would have been so much fun to work together,

don't you think? Oh, absolutely.

Let me ask you something.

How did you turn it around with the LSATs?

What do you mean?

Well, come on.

You took 'em, didn't do so well,

and now you're at Harvard Law.

It's exactly what I want to be doing.

So you can tell me.

What'd you do, sleep with the grader?

What?

I paid someone to take them for me.

What?

There's this guy.

I heard about him

from a friend of a friend's.

Paid him 1,000 bucks

and he took the LSATs for me.

He got me a 172.

You cheated on the LSATs?

When we were paralegals, we were smarter

than half the associates.

Why should I be denied my chance

because I can't pass some stupid test?

I'm living my dream, Rache.

I'm not gonna apologize for it to anyone.

Come on. Come on.

Hello?

Mikey, yo, it's Scott.

Scott? How are you, man?

I haven't talked to you in forever.

Are you still taking LSATs for other people?

I got a customer for you.

No, man.

I'm not in that business anymore.

I'm sorry. Trust me.

You want to take this meeting, dude.

This chick is smoking hot.

What's her name?

Rachel Zane.

You didn't give her my name, did you?

No. Of course not.

I'm not taking that meeting, man.

What do you want me to sign now?

A confession that I killed Kennedy?

I'm not gonna pretend

to be your best friend, Miss Stone.

But my interests happen to be aligned with yours right now,

so please sit down.

Your colleagues' most profitable trades.

Why are you showing them to me?

Every single one of them comes from stocks

that Morello Assets didn't officially recommend.

This is either a hell of a coincidence,

or these traders were all given different tip sheets.

So you believe me when I said

my tip sheet had Lunardi Pharmaceuticals on it.

Well, I'm getting there,

but you got flagged by the D.O.J.

And no one else at Morello did,

so I want to know why.

What's different here?

None of these trades are for more than $9 million.

That's Morello's recommended amount.

And your Lunardi purchase was for $10 million.

Maybe someone figured out that any trade under $10 million

wouldn't draw D.O.J. attention.

Why'd you make a trade for $1 million more

than the recommended amount?

Look at me.

I'm not exactly fraternity material.

It's a cutthroat world,

and I wasn't performing well.

So I took a chance, and I tried to hit it big.

I picked the wrong trade.

Gabby, if you knew you were innocent,

then why didn't you fight this harder?

After I saw how much money the trade made,

I suspected something.

I went to Burt Kimball,

he reassured me that I made a profitable trade

and did nothing wrong.

He even told me I had a $300,000 bonus

coming at the end of the quarter.

I should have gone to someone,

said something.

I made one mistake,

and I'm gonna regret it for the rest of my life.

Scott. Yeah, it's Mike Ross.

This Rachel Zane, tell her I'll take the meeting.

Just don't tell her my name.

Who's that on the phone?

It's nothing.

You thinking about Gabby?

I'm thinking about her lawyer.

- What? - Knowing what she said,

why would that Zegan guy agree to a deal

that puts his client behind bars without even putting up a fight?

I can't stand that kind of shoddy work.

It's like the bad version of both of us.

He doesn't care about his client and he's not about winning.

He's got even less style than you.

I don't really see how that's relevant.

Like at all. Hold on.

How did she get this lawyer?

Her friend Bradley.

The one who also works at Morello?

Yeah.

I don't think Bradley's as good a friend

as she thinks he is.

Here's what you're gonna do.

I looked into it. You were right.

Put this together fast.

I care about Gabby.

You were right too.

You want me to go with you?

I'm sorry, but I got to take care of this one myself.

Hot dogs, hamburgers.

- Thank you. - Hot dogs, hamburgers.

Rachel?

What are you doing all the way over here?

This guy has the best soft pretzels in town.

Do you want to try it?

No, I'm good.

Hey, how are you feeling about the LSATs?

I was really happy with all the prep we did yesterday.

I'm really excited for you.

You're excited for me?

Why do you even care? Hot dogs, hamburgers.

- I was just asking. - Well, just stop asking.

Look, I came down here

because I just want to be by myself

and I bump into you, and the first thing

you want to talk about is the LSATs.

Hey, sorry.

The truth is, I came down here to clear my head too.

About what?

Gabby Stone.

The girl who did the insider trading?

She actually suspected that something was wrong

after the trade, but she didn't do anything about it.

She didn't want to jeopardize her career.

Now she's gonna be paying

for that mistake for the rest of her life.

Anyway, I'm sorry I ruined your alone time.

I'll see you back at the office.

Let me ask you something, Nick.

Does Burt Kimball drag his feet paying you too?

Excuse me?

'Cause in my experience, getting money

from that asshole is like getting blood from a stone.

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

Yes, you do.

See, after I saw your client

sitting in jail, I got to wondering.

How'd she find you?

- I'm gonna call security. - Absolutely.

See, it turns out that her friend Bradley

recommended you.

Bradley, who's been at Morello Assets

for the past seven years.

So I checked.

You know what I found?

You represented Burt Kimball

in a civil suit 12 years ago.

It just so happens you also represented.

Lunardi Pharmaceuticals in their FDA approval proceedings.

That doesn't mean anything.

You've seen my relationship with the D.O.J.

Want me to point them in your direction?

Or do you want to admit to me

that Burt Kimball's paying you off?

Harvey,

I don't understand.

I thought all this business was done with.

It's almost sorted out, Dean.

I'm just here to let you know

that Burt's a crook.

What did you say?

Harvey.

He used a lawyer

to periodically provide him

with insider information.

Once he got this information,

he handed out one tip sheet different from all the others,

so the trader, in this instance, Gabrielle Stone,

would make a trade not knowing

that she was acting on an illegal tip.

It was actually ingenious.

If the trade was ever under suspicion,

even the trader couldn't point to Burt.

We've heard more than enough, thank you.

I don't think so.

Miss Stone made two mistakes.

One, she made a trade for more than $9 million.

And the other was not going to the D.O.J.

the second the stock shot up through the roof.

You son of a bitch.

Harvey, this is a lot to digest.

Well, I'll make it easy for you, Dean.

He's a cancer.

You don't cut him loose, he's gonna kill your whole company.

How dare you walk in here

and accuse me with these things?

I mean, you are my lawyer.

No, Burt, I'm the lawyer for Morello Asset Management.

As far as the law is concerned,

Dean Morello's my client, not you.

Dumb son of a bitch.

Burt, you're fired.

What?

Effective immediately.

You're gonna fire me? Because of this?

I hope you're happy.

'Cause without me, this hedge fund's nothing.

I'll be happy when the Department of Justice

puts your ass in handcuffs.

Enjoy your freedom, Burt, because they're coming for you.

And since you're a bigger trophy than Gabrielle Stone,

you're gonna get a whole lot more than 11 months.

Harvey, I want you to know

that I knew nothing about any of this.

Dean, when I was 13 years old,

my little brother was getting bullied by a kid

in the neighborhood.

One day, I confronted the kid's father.

He told me he didn't know anything about it.

You know what his problem was?

It was his goddamn job to know.

Thanks for getting me out.

We're just sorry we couldn't get you your bonus.

It wasn't mine to begin with.

But without it, I don't know how I'm gonna pay you.

Don't worry about it.

Dean Morello's footing this bill.

You believed in me.

I can't tell you how grateful I am to both of you.

Never doubted you for a second.

Oh, Gabby, I wanted to give you something.

Left it on your desk.

Thank you.

All right, well, I'm gonna find some water.

You don't come back soon,

we're sending out a search party.

You never doubted her for a second?

I didn't doubt her for a second.

I doubted her for days.

Yeah, that's not what you just led her to believe.

People hear what they want to hear.

Oh, I meant to ask you,

that big guy that you got in a fight with,

Mr. T, was he in on this whole thing?

No, he was just a dick.

That was the most brilliant portrayal

of King Lear I have ever seen.

"Come up between the dragon and his wrath."

That was...

Thank you for tonight, Jessica, really.

This was nice.

This is really, really nice.

You're welcome, Louis.

And, yes, this was... this was really nice.

Listen, I just want you to know how much I appreciate

everything that you do for this firm.

I take a lot of pride in my work.

I know, and you're very good at what you do.

Okay, can you just please say that once in front

of Harvey?

Louis, I know you and Harvey

have a rivalry.

And the truth is that, right now,

Harvey is more valuable to the firm.

But that doesn't always mean

that he is going to be on top.

Because another truth is is that I can't always count

on Harvey to listen to me,

but I can count on you.

Yeah. Yes, you can.

So you keep doing what you're doing, Louis,

and you're gonna be just fine.

And if he doesn't know it already,

I promise Harvey is going to understand

just how valuable you are to me.

You know, next week there's a revival of Cats.

No.

Nice touch. Tickets to the Yankee game.

Found 'em on my desk.

Can't wait. You're welcome.

Nachos are on you this time.

Oh, those tickets aren't for you and me.

They're for you and Louis.

Sunday the 20th.

Did I mention that I'm busy that night?

I know you are.

You're busy going to the Yankee game

with Louis.

Son, your ego's writing checks

that your body can't cash.

Oh, see, that's funny, because now I'm quoting.

Top gun and... get out of my office.

Very funny. Very funny.

Very funny.

Mike.

Hey, you got a second?

I just... I just want to thank you.

Thank me for what?

For going out of your way

to help me with the LSATs.

It's nothing.

I'm sure you'd do the same for me.

I put a lot of pressure on myself.

I always have.

You're right.

I'm a perfectionist.

It's okay.

No, it's not okay.

My dad, he always wanted a son.

Never something that they brought up.

It was just sort of there.

And I never felt like I was good enough for him.

Which is why I don't like to put myself in positions

where I might fail.

So I decided to just push the LSATs,

give myself a little more time to study.

That's good. That's great.

I think you made the right choice.

Really? Why?

You were the one that's been pushing me to take them

next week.

I just meant that I, you know,

support the decision you made.

Why are you suddenly changing your tune?

Because if you're not ready, you're not ready.

Listen, I got to go. I'll see you tomorrow.

No, that's not why.

All that interest in Theresa

and then the other guy didn't show up, but you did.

You were gonna take the test for me.

What guy? What are you talking about?

You know exactly what I'm talking about.

You're the test genius, right?

- Um... - Mike, I could pick up

the phone and find out right now.

Yes, I took the test for your friend Theresa.

That's the whole reason you were trying to help me.

Because you thought if you didn't,

you were gonna get caught. That's not true.

How am I supposed to believe that?

Honestly, how am I supposed to believe anything you say

when the whole time you were at Harvard

studying to be a lawyer,

you were actually cheating for other people?

Yes, I was helping people cheat, okay, but...

But what?

It's not the whole story.
