All language subtitles for Suits - Sæson 3 - Afsnit 12

I got up early, so I could figure out

if there's anything around here
that I could stand living with.

- You want to move in together?
- If the offer still stands.

Are you kidding me?
[Laughs]

You slept with Quentin
while he was married to me.

I asked you back then

if anything had started
before we were separated.

You said it hadn't.

'Cause I didn't want to hurt you.

Here's to your new partnership.

I fronted your buy-in.

How could you do that?

I did it as a romantic gesture.

Yeah, well,Pretty Woman
may have been a romantic movie,

but Julia Roberts was still a hooker.

How long have you known
Quentin had A.L.S.?

From the beginning.

And how long have you known
Quentin falsified

trial results to get
the drug on the market?

- He didn't lie.
- But you did.

I love him.
So what else could I do?

I am in this, Scottie.

Okay.

So am I.

I think Mike Ross
went to a subpar law school

and has been lying about it the whole time.

Just call up Harvard and ask for a copy

of his transcript.

Professor Gerard's legal ethics class,

did you ever hear of anybody
ever getting an A-plus?

No, he's famous for never
giving higher than an "A."

Well, what are you so happy about?

I made bubble-wrap slippers
this morning

while you were in the shower.

I specifically told you the bubble wrap

is for the dishes.

I also made a hat.

Okay, I'm moving in
with a ten-year-old.

And you love me.

[Laughs] I do.

Hey, I was thinking,

what are we going to do about our bed?

We already have two.

I know, but, yeah, we do.

But don't you think a new
beginning deserves a new bed?

That... is incredibly sweet.

Yeah, not bad
for a ten-year-old, huh?

What kind of bed were you thinking?

Whichever one we pick out
after we test them tonight.

And did you have
any particular test in mind?

Well, now I do.

See, I don't think the store is

gonna let us run that kind of test.

Yeah.
No, you're right.

We should probably just test
ours before we go out tonight.

Oh.

What are you doing?

I think that Louis might have just seen us.

Come on, what's the difference?

We're moving in together.

I think it's time
we stopped keeping it a secret.

But keeping it a secret is sort of fun.

- Mm-hmm.
- And sexy.

And I am pro sexy...
I mean, I did make

those bubble-wrap slippers
and hat after all,

which is funny, 'cause...

That's not sexy, it's just fun.

- It's something.
- Something.

- Something.
- I made you some too.

Hey, Harvey, she won't be back
for another week,

so I don't think you need
to start drinking just yet.

You want to make fun,
or you want to help me

figure out where to put this?

A bottle of scotch?

You couldn't get her
anything more personal?

- She likes scotch.
- You like scotch.

She likes me.
Therefore...

Why don't you just attach a card that says,

"Welcome, generic senior partner"?

This is a $12,000 bottle of scotch,

and this is one of three left in the world.

That doesn't say generic, that says...

You're one of three very expensive things

I recently purchased.

We worked it out
about the buy-in.

And this is gonna
un-work it out.

You know, it's funny.

First it was too generic.
Now it's special.

What are you saying?

I don't think you have a
problem with my choice of gift.

I think you have a problem
with my choice of recipient.

Do you think Scottie would even be here

if it wasn't for me?

No, I don't.

Harvey, I want this for you.

I want it to work,
and I'm just trying to...

Make sure I don't screw it up.

Well, we both know
you're gonna screw it up.

I'm just trying to delay that
as long as possible.

You sure about this?

That bottle is the reason
I buy my own present

for secretary's day.

- There's a secretary's day?
- There is.

And you're very generous.

[Sighs]

How you doing, Mike?

Are you excited or what?
[Chuckles]

Excited about what?

Didn't you get my email?

[Phone beeps] Oh, there it is.

Why don't you read it?

Oh, actually, you know what, never mind.

I'll just let you know what it says.

[Laughs] It's so great.

You're gonna love it.

It says I invited Henry Gerard here

to give a lecture this Friday.

That's great.

You don't even know who he is, do you?

Professor Henry Gerard,

author of the definitive text
in legal ethics

and chair of the department
for the last 20 years.

Yeah, I know who he is.

And do you also remember
what you got in his class?

It's pretty hard to forget
an A-plus.

Yeah, it's pretty hard to forget a grade

that never happened.

No one gets an A-plus
in Gerard's class.

Yeah, well, no one can recite
an entire chapter

of his book from memory.

But I can and did.
Bullshit-.

You never got an A-plus because
you never took his class.

It's a required class, Louis.
Of course I took it.

Not if you never went to Harvard.

Louis, that is insane.

I have a transcript from Harvard.

I have a degree from Harvard.
That's because I...

Wait, let me guess.
'Cause you went to Harvard?

See, Mike, here's the situation.

I don't believe you.

And I don't want to call
Gerard up and ask him

'cause I don't want
the world laughing at my firm.

But if he doesn't walk up to you on Friday

and say, "Mike Ross, my beloved student

"who I remember, because he's the only one

I ever gave an A-plus to,"

well, then, I'm gonna know you're lying.

And if you still don't come clean,

I'm gonna launch a formal investigation,

whether it makes my firm look bad or not.

This is crazy.
There is nothing to investigate.

Well, I'd rather risk looking
crazy to root out an impostor

than to risk letting
that impostor poison everything

that I stand for.

It's over, Mike.

I'm on to you,

and I'm gonna expose you

for the lying piece of filth that you are.

Don't forget to rinse your mouth out

after you're done throwing up.

[Clears throat]

Do you remember when you said
if Louis knew, we'd know?

He knows.

What did he do?

He's bringing in Henry Gerard

to give a lecture.
So what?

It'll only be the first time
you've had to suffer through it.

He's bringing him in because he saw

I got an A-plus
in his class.

What? No one gets an A-plus
in Gerard's class.

- Welcome to the problem.
- God damn it.

Donna, get in here.

Why are you calling Donna?

Because she's the one
who found out that Louis knows

you don't have a file
in the Harvard file room.

How do you know that?

Because Louis's new girlfriend

is the queen of that file room,

and she left him alone in there.

You guys didn't think to mention this?

I thought I handled it.

She did handle it.

She sent him to sniff out your transcript.

Only she didn't realize you gave yourself

an A-plus in legal ethics.

I didn't give it to myself.
Lola Jensen did.

I don't give a shit who gave it to you,

unless it was Professor Gerard,
which it wasn't.

How many people take the class?

I mean, maybe Mike will just be
another face in the crowd.

Louis is bringing him here

to see if he embraces his star student.

The worst thing I can do is just
be another face in the crowd.

We need to make it so that he doesn't come.

It's not gonna happen.

The man doesn't back out of commitments.

His favorite quote is "for the law to work,

there must be honor
in one's word."

- Who's he quoting?
- Himself.

Pompous prick.

Guy never practiced a day in his life,

thinks he can write the book
on real-world ethics.

Okay.

I'm not panicking,
but what are we gonna do?

Right now, you're gonna sit tight.

And what are you going to do?

I think it's time to tell Jessica.

[Sighs]

We need to talk.

- We do.
- You know?

No, but whatever it is, it can wait.

This isn't something that can wait.

Quentin died.

I'm sorry.

I knew A.L.S.
wasn't gonna be a picnic.

And I knew this was coming,
but it doesn't...

Look, if you need some time,
I can manage things here.

The truth is, Harvey, I'd take it.

But Lisa's on her way in

to discuss Quentin's will with us.

Us?

Quentin named you and I
co-executors of his estate.

You're her husband's ex-wife.

I doubt Lisa sees this as just business.

No, I can't imagine she does.

Can you see this as just business?

You don't like her,

you don't trust her, and you
have good reason for both.

Quentin asked me to do this.

Maybe he gave you
a co-executor for a reason.

You're saying he was giving me an out?

No, I'm just saying that I'm here,

and you don't have to do this.

Harvey, he asked me,

and I'm not going to let him down.

Mike, you can't just wait
for the ax to fall.

I didn't just wait.
I armed myself.

I learned everything there is to
know about Gerard and his class.

Harvey is right.
This guy is a prick.

He makes everybody read his books

and then doesn't even test on them.

Okay, but arming yourself isn't enough.

We need to actually do something.

Harvey told me to sit tight.

That's exactly what I'm gonna do.

Right, that's because
Harvey's life isn't on the line.

Ours is.

Ours?

Mike, I am not moving in with you

because I need a new place to live.

Okay, so what do you think we should do?

What's gonna make him believe
that you went to Harvard?

Well, if my transcript, diploma,

and the job you can only get
by having attended Harvard

aren't enough, I'm not really sure what is.

Well, there's got to be
something you can say.

Look, Rachel, you know Louis.

The more I try and deny it,

the more he's gonna come after me.

I can't believe this.

He is not gonna be happy until he has

a signed full confession
proving he was right.

You're right.

And that's exactly what I'm gonna give him.

Come on.

It's all fairly straightforward.

The company shouldn't be affected.

Tim can continue
with the day-to-day

while this works its way through probate.

Well, the day-to-day's
going to change.

- How so?
- We have an offer from Pryzen.

You want to sell the company?

I want to accept an offer.

Well, that was fast.

Excuse me?

What Jessica is saying is

Pryzen didn't waste any time swooping in.

No, what I'm saying is,

before we authorize anything,

we need to evaluate
if this is even a good idea.

I don't see why.

Our general counsel thinks
it's a good idea, and I agree.

And I'm the one who's inheriting
the majority of the company,

so it's my decision.
Actually, it isn't.

What are you talking about?

My job is to see that
Quentin's wishes are fulfilled.

Are you implying that you know his wishes

better than I do?

I'm implying he's not dead a week,

and you want to strip his name
off the door and into oblivion.

What I want to do is put the drug

that he dedicated his life to

in the hands of a company
with the resources to finish it.

And I was there when he worked
for companies like this.

And he hated them, which is why
he went out on his own.

You were there?

Well, that's not how I heard the story.

All right, we're not doing this.

You want to sell your shares?
No one's saying you can't.

But we have a responsibility
to evaluate it.

Remember when you said
you'd try to be conciliatory?

I never said that.

Well, you should have,
'cause you sure couldn't

keep the personal out of it.

I didn't think they were gonna come at me

with all that stuff.

They weren't coming at you.

They were coming with a proposal.

Do you really think
that offer came out of thin air?

I think it's possible
they waited to pounce.

It's also possible

that Lisa and Tim put this in motion

while Quentin was lying
in his hospital bed.

And what if they did?
Is that really our business?

Jessica, I understand
how hard this is for you,

but his legacy is this drug.

It's not about whose name
is on the company that makes it.

You're saying you agree with Lisa.

I'm saying to you now
what I tried to tell you before.

This is personal for you.
It's not personal for me.

So before we take another step,
let me evaluate this offer.

[Knock at door]

You're right.

I lied to you.

I lied to everyone.

I cheated to get here,

and if you put me in front of Henry Gerard,

he's not gonna remember me.

'Cause you never took his class.

Because I never went to his class.

'Cause you never went to Harvard.

- That's not true.
- Bullshit.

Louis, please, look, I know
you have every right to be angry

with me.
I'm not angry.

Angry is just a flash in the pan.

My outrage is here to stay,

and I will obliterate any
infection threatening my firm.

I'm not the infection you think I am.

The only thing that's bullshit
is that A -plus!

What?

Louis, I went to Harvard.

I...

I just changed my grade.

You expect me to believe that?

I have always been the smartest kid

at every school that I went to.

High school, college,
the first two years of Harvard,

I'd get "A" s without studying.

I'd ace every test
without going to class, but...

but that third year...

You had to take Gerard.

I could memorize his books,

but his tests weren't about his books.

Yeah, they're about his lectures.

The final exam...
I failed it.

I went to his office to beg
for a second chance.

He doesn't give second chances.

- I had to try.
- He wouldn't do it.

He wasn't there.

I got to his office.
It was empty.

His computer was just sitting there,

logged in to the main system.

He was about to submit his grades.

I only had a few seconds
before he came back, so...

I decided to save myself.

No, you decided
to give yourself an A-plus.

No, Louis.

You might not be able to believe me

about anything else ever again.

Believe this.

You have no idea how much
I wish I could do it over again,

because this time, I would do it right.

I would go to every class, and I
would attend every lecture,

and I would feast
on what that place has to offer

like no one ever has.

But you didn't do it right the first time.

You cheated, and now you're looking at me

to help you get away with it.
No, Louis-

Get out of my sight.

What a surprise.

Louis, please, I just want to...

I know what you want to do...
you want to lobby me

on behalf of someone
who had the audacity...

I love him.

What?

We're moving in together,
and we're starting

a life together.
Rachel-

and I'm telling you this
because I know what he did

and I still love him.

Okay, here's the problem.

I don't.

- Louis.
- Rachel...

I respect you.

I care about you.

But this isn't about you.

This is about Mike and what he did to me.

You know,

he came to me the night that you asked him

to be your associate.

I told him to go with you.

Why?

Because he said he had
a connection with you

that he's never had with Harvey.

- He said that?
- Yes.

Your shared love of the law.

- Yeah, I told him that.
- I know.

And I have the same connection with you.

Rachel, you're asking me to...

Louis, he didn't do this to you.

He did it so that he can practice the thing

that we all love.

And if you don't let it go,

he's never gonna be able
to practice it again.

Thank you for coming alone.

I'm happy to help,
but Jessica and I are a team,

and asking to see me alone
doesn't change that.

I'm not gonna cut her out of the process.

Isn't that what she's doing to me?

She's trying to kill the sale.

That's not what this letter says.

I'm not a lawyer, but I'm not stupid.

It says all communication
goes through Pearson Specter.

- This doesn't kill the deal.
- It tells them that

they've been negotiating with
people with no power at all.

No, it tells them they have

to negotiate with two entities
instead of just one.

It gives us more firepower.

What do you want, Lisa?

I want to know why your
signature isn't on that letter.

Because we came to a consensus,

and she signed it on both our behalves.

- I don't believe you.
- I don't care.

And if you can't handle us
notifying the buyer

that we're evaluating this sale,

then it makes me question

whose judgment is really clouded.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I'm done meeting behind my partner's back.

What the hell happened to letting me

evaluate this offer?

I am letting you evaluate the offer.

You sent this letter to kill the deal.

I sent that letter to buy you time.

Jessica, you put my name

on a document you knew I wouldn't support.

You are on Lisa's side.
You want to sell.

This isn't about Lisa,
and I don't give a shit

whether this company is sold or not.

This is about you and me and how
we're going to run this firm.

Didn't we just have
a conversation about that?

Yeah, we sure did.

And when it had to do with Scottie,

you gave me a big speech about trust,

about how I had to trust
you had rational reasons

for what you were doing.

- This is different.
- Exactly.

This time it's not personal for me.

It's personal for you.

And you're not playing by your own rules.

This deal is wrong, Harvey.

And like it or not,
I'm still the managing partner.

Not on this.

On this,
you're a co-executor,

and you're not putting
my name on any more letters.

So I suggest you get your head on straight

and look at this deal rationally.

And if you can't do that,

I suggest you step aside.

Jessica, you loved him.

I know you're hurting.
So is she.

Whatever your history with her,

so is she.

You're here late.

The life of an associate, right?

Ah, yeah, I remember.

I used to live in this room,

work piled all around me,

surviving on coffee, delivery,

and no sleep.

And the whole time, wondering,

"man, is it ever gonna get
any easier?"

- Does it?
- No.

But you still love it.

And so do you.

Or else you'd be home with the woman

who loves you,
not spending your night here.

- You know.
- She came to see me.

I didn't think I could forgive you.

But then somehow, she...

Made me realize I could.

[Sighs]

Louis, I don't know how to thank you.

Oh, no, no, no.
Don't thank me yet.

I'm not the one you did this to.

What are you saying?

I'm saying you did this to Henry Gerard.

And it's not my place to let it go for him,

which is why you're gonna have
to come clean to him.

You said it yourself.

Gerard doesn't give second chances.

What he does or doesn't do is up to him.

That's his right, Mike,
as the person that you wronged.

Yeah, but he doesn't have
to know that I wronged him.

Listen to me.

You said that if you had it
to do over, you'd do it right.

I'm giving you that chance.

Take it,

or I'm gonna have to take it for you.

What are you here to do now,

take my house away from me?

I'm here to talk.

Well, the last time we talked,
you pretty much said

I don't care about my husband
enough to honor his wishes.

The last time we talked,

I was an asshole.

Pardon my French.

I don't mind your French.

It's come to my attention
that I may have let

our history affect
how I'm handling this situation.

It's funny.

Harvey brought that same thing
to my attention.

So...

Tell me this.

Why do you want to sell?

Do you know why I lied
about those A.L.S. trials?

Because I was desperate
for the research to continue.

But it didn't matter.

Lisa.

He wasn't supposed to die.

He wasn't supposed to live
as long as he did.

We weren't trying to prolong his life.

We were trying to find a cure.

And we failed.

You never cared about the money.

The only money I cared about is

the money to find the cure,
and we don't have the resources.

Pryzen does.

But they already
have an A.L.S. drug.

- It's not as good as ours.
- In profit margin, it's better.

Which means there's nothing to stop them

from buying your company,
burying your drug,

and making a fortune.

What are you saying?

I'm saying you didn't fail him,

but I know how it feels
to think that you did.

And I have a way to make sure
that neither one of us

feels that way again.

So your great plan backfired.

Harvey, I'm sorry.

I don't need you to say I'm sorry.

But the next time I tell you to sit tight,

I need you to say you will.
Okay.

Good, because the next time

I tell you to sit tight is right now.

Wait, what are you gonna do?

I'm getting on a plane to Boston.

And doing what?

I'll let you know when I get back.

Why are you going to Boston?

I have to see Marcus.
He's in trouble.

Anything I can do?

No, I'll handle it myself.

Since you're leaving,
I'm going to need you to draft

some language for the Sainz
pharmaceutical sale.

So you're in favor of it now?

Well, not exactly.

But I heard what you said,
and I went to see Lisa.

She and I are on the same page.

Do you have time to hear what the plan is?

I trust you.

So what do you need me to draft?

I need you to draft
a provision that guarantees

Pryzen will finish developing that drug.

Consider it done.

He's not seeing his brother, is he?

No, he's not.

- Care to elaborate on that?
- Not particularly.

You're saying I should trust him.

I'm saying I do.

I'd ask how you're holding up,
but I can see the answer.

[Sighs]

Not well.

I can only imagine
what these last couple of days

have been like for you.

But I'm telling you, it's gonna be okay.

- You don't know that.
- Yes, I do.

- But what if it's not?
- Well, then we're screwed.

But that's not gonna happen.

Look, Donna.

I am trying so hard to be brave.

But what if Louis ends up finding out

everything about Mike?

What if he ends up exposing him
and he actually gets arrested?

What if he actually...

God.

Rach,

Mike found out that one of our partners

ordered multiple murders.

Harvey said he'd fix it.

Two days later, that partner was in prison.

Stephen was a criminal.
This is an academic.

He hasn't done anything wrong.

Well, what makes Harvey great
at his job is he knows

that everybody has done something wrong.

Even the most esteemed
ethics professor in the country?

The cleaner they look,

the more dirt they've swept under the rug.

I'm telling you,
Harvey's gonna walk in there,

he's gonna find the lump,

and Henry Gerard is not
gonna know what hit him.

Wednesday nights,
8:00 to 10:00,

it's like clockwork.
[Chuckles]

Consistency is nothing to be feared.

I wasn't afraid of it.
I was counting on it.

Mr. Specter.

Professor Gerard.

Looks the same as the last time I was here.

Can't say you look the same
as the last time you were here.

Yes, you can.

[Chuckles]

I see you're as humble as ever.

We'll see who's humble in a few minutes.

And for the record,

you were wrong about how I'd turn out.

I know how you turned out.

More settlements than
any other lawyer in New York.

More closings than
any other lawyer in New York.

And settling is what it takes
to get the job done

in the real world.

I know what it takes for you
to do what you do,

and compromising your way through life

is no way to go about the law.

I see you're as pompous as ever.

What did you come here for,
Mr. Specter?

- I came to ask for a favor.
- The answer is no.

You don't even know what it is.

I know you're the one who's asking.

I figured you'd say that,
which is why I brought this.

I don't consider blackmail a favor.

I doubt the trustees
will care about semantics

when they see that.

Well, I doubt the trustees
are gonna see anything at all.

Because that envelope is full
of blank paper

or your dry cleaning receipts.

You think I'm bluffing?

I know you are.

If you think that envelope is meaningless.

Why don't you go ahead and open it?

Your poker face has gotten much better,

I'll give you that.

A lot of practice, you know,

compromising my way through life.

- You know.
- I know.

And you talk a big game,

but you're just as human as everyone else,

you smug son of a bitch.

What's your favor?

Find a reason to cancel
your trip on Friday.

And if Louis Litt ever tries
to contact you after that,

don't take his call.

- Seems easy enough.
- It is.

Have a good night, Professor Gerard.

Here's the problem,
Mr. Specter.

I don't only talk a big game.
I walk it.

And ethics is not about
never doing anything wrong.

It's about making choices.

And I'm not going to let you
make my choice for me.

So go do whatever you're gonna do,

but I'm not canceling my trip.

- You didn't get it done.
- How'd you know?

Because I know you would call
to tell me if it's okay.

And you didn't call, so it's not okay.

Then why are you so calm?

Because you've taught me enough to know

that it's going to be okay.

- It's not.
- What?

It's not gonna be okay.
I don't see what we're gonna do.

What do you mean you don't see
what we're gonna do?

You're Harvey Specter.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means there's a gun

pointed at our heads.

There's 146 things that we can do.

We just have to put our heads
together and figure it out.

What the hell do you think I've been doing

all goddamn night?

Louis has us, he's not gonna let it go,

and there's nothing we can do to stop it.

- There has to be something.
- There isn't.

Well, I refuse to believe that.

I don't give a shit what you believe.

Get it through your head.
I'm not superman.

I failed, and I don't know what to do.

Mike.

Tim, I thought I was meeting with Lisa.

And I thought you were above board.

I see you've read our amendment.

You drafted a provision
that if they didn't spend

$100 million finishing that drug,

they'd have to pay us
an extra $100 million.

I drafted a provision to see

if they'd put their money
where their mouth is.

What you did was
what you always wanted to do...

tank this deal.

- They pulled the offer.
- They yanked the offer.

Then the deal wasn't worth
anything to begin with.

What wasn't worth anything

was the document you had Quentin sign

making you executor instead of me.

I didn't have Quentin sign anything.

Well, maybe you didn't have him sign it,

but I know when he signed it,

and it's not gonna hold up.

It'll hold up just fine.

We'll see.

This is a subpoena.

So the next time we have this conversation,

you'll be under oath.

What exactly is he claiming?

He's saying Quentin wasn't competent

when he made me executor.

So let him say it.

I don't see where there's a problem.

Yes, you do.

No, I don't.

Just get up on the stand
and testify that Tim

doesn't know what he's talking about.

But he does.

Quentin knew what he wanted.

They're not going to ask me that.

They're going to ask me
about his condition.

I saw him, Lisa.

I know what he was like.

Quentin knew what he wanted.

He was also medicated, could barely speak,

and he was in a lot of pain.

But you don't have to say those things.

I'm going to have to swear
to this under oath.

If making you executor
wasn't legally valid,

then why didn't you say so when he did it?

Because I didn't think
it would be challenged.

And thinking something might not hold up

and keeping that thought to myself

is not the same
as lying about it under oath.

Well, those are some fuzzy damn lines.

I didn't make them.
They came with the job.

You're gonna undo everything
he's ever worked for.

Maybe.

But just because you and I
want the same thing

doesn't mean that I'm willing
to perjure myself to get it.

Please.

You said you didn't want to fail him again.

You didn't fail.

You don't need to make me feel better.

I'm not trying to make you feel better.

I'm just telling you the truth.

You didn't fail because...

We were always playing on borrowed time.

- Mike.
- Harvey.

I wouldn't have any of this without you.

I think it's time I cut your exposure.

You don't have to do that.

It's all gonna come crashing down anyway.

I'm gonna go to Louis.

I'm going to resign,

and I'm gonna beg him
to let this whole thing go.

Then I'm going with you.

Harvey,

when Trevor went to Jessica with my secret,

I felt betrayed.

I lost my closest friend in the world.

And I know you don't like to admit it,

but we're friends.

And I'm not gonna betray my friend.

I used to hate this kind of thing.

- What kind of thing?
- Guest lectures.

Hardman used to make us sit through them.

[Chuckles]

Except he gave tests afterwards.

Yeah, and if you didn't pass,
you got stuck on doc review.

Both: Goddamn Hardman.

[Chuckles]

You remember the Robinson case?

Sure do.

80,000 documents, two years of prep,

and five months in court.

And the Friday before trial started,

he assigned you and I to proof everything.

[Microphone feedback]

You blew it off.

And you covered for me.

You did your half and mine,
then turned it in.

He would've fired you on the spot.

Exactly, and I'm here

because you didn't sell out a friend then,

but you're about to now.

- Mike.
- Me.

Friend?

Louis, I may not ever say it,

but that's not because we aren't.

We are.
You know it.

I know it.

I just don't like to say it.

Last time I asked you,
you said, "don't push it."

You knew I meant yes.

I did.

So Mike told you.
He did.

What'd you say?

Doesn't matter.

Bottom line is I forgave him
because I don't care

what some stupid piece of paper says.

And I want you to forgive him too.

Oh, Harvey, I did forgive him.

I just can't cover it up for him.

You covered it up with Hardman for me.

What you did that weekend

is not the same as what he did
to Professor Gerard.

What's the same is
Hardman wouldn't have let it go,

and Gerard won't let it go.

You make Mike confess,

you might as well throw his life
down the toilet.

Harvey, he didn't just betray us.

He betrayed the law.
He did.

- That's not right.
- It isn't.

But forgiveness isn't
about right and wrong.

Louis, I know you value
the letter of the law,

but what about its spirit?

Because Mike embodies

that spirit more than either one of us.

You said we're friends.

A friend would not ask me to do this.

No, Louis.

A friend just won't hold it
against you if you don't.

♪

Do you swear to tell
the truth, the whole truth,

and nothing but the truth, so help you God?

I do.

But before we start,
I'd like to make a statement.

I am here to tell the truth,

but what I want you to understand

is that truth is subjective.

The truth is the truth.

No.
The law is the law.

We can define where a legal line is.

I'm talking about the truth.

♪

The truth is much more complicated.

By the letter of the law,

Quentin Sainz may
or may not have been competent.

I can't say what's true
with 100% certainty.

I just don't know.

But what I can say with certainty

is that Quentin knew what he was doing

when he trusted me to look
after his best interests.

How do you know that?

Because I knew him.

Just because someone
can't check off everything

on the list that's required

to be competent doesn't mean

they aren't better at whatever
they do than the rest of us.

And Quentin Sainz was an amazing man

with an amazing mind.

And if he were here right now,

I'd still listen to him on any subject

sooner than I'd listen to anybody else.

That's all very touching,

but we're not here to talk about the truth.

We're here to deal
with the letter of the law.

Have you never met someone
who by the letter of the law

shouldn't be able to do what they do?

Who beat the odds?
Your honor-

We are talking about a man's life.

We are talking about his legacy.

And I dispute that those things
are less important

than the letter of the law.

♪

Your honor, what has to happen today

is very clear.

You have to undo this injustice.

Yes.
This is about justice.

But the issue isn't whether
Quentin Sainz was competent

when he made me executor, but rather,

would it have been his intent
to do so if he were.

This man dedicated his life to one thing,

and the circumstances
surrounding how he decided

to protect that thing is not the question.

It's a question of law,
Ms. Pearson.

No, it is a question
of doing what is right.

Louis.

What the hell are you doing here?

- I...
- I told you I needed

the Carell filings by lunch...
you didn't get that done,

so now you don't get to listen
to this lecture.

You do not get to listen to this
titan talk about legal ethics.

You know something, you make me sick.

So do me a quick favor
and tell him you're sorry

and get the hell out of here.

I'm sorry.

I accept your apology,

but I'm not the aggrieved one here.

Louis is.

Louis...

I'm sorry.
Yeah.

It's not my pony.
Come on.

Motion to remove Jessica
Pearson as executor denied.

[Gavel bangs]

Well, you were right.

Quentin did know what he was doing.

I know how hard it must have been...

At the end.

I'm glad Quentin had you.

I'm glad he had you too.

He let it go.

[Gasps]

[Laughs]

I heard it all worked out.

Never a doubt.

I've got a present for you.

Tiffany.

"D.J.S."

This is a present for Scottie.

Which makes it a present for you.

- Let's put this in her office.
- Great.

We can put it next to your
overpriced bottle of scotch.

So it was a great gift.

- Now it is.
- [Sighs]

For the record,
her middle name is Victoria.

No, it isn't.

What is it?

Please, she never told me.

Julie?

- Seriously?
- Jessie?

- Oh, my God.
- Joy?

- You're pathetic.
- Jenny?

Not telling.

I don't think this is a good idea.

I don't care.

What are they gonna do, fire us?

Mike, I haven't left
before 5:00

in the past six years.

All the more reason to do it.

Now what do you want to do?

See a movie, grab dinner, get a drink?

I just want to go home.

Yeah.
Let's go home.
