Previously, on "Suits..."

I thought it might be nice
to get out there

and get to know each other.
- I think what you really mean

is you'd like to impress
the new managing partner.

- And what if I did?
- You wanna impress me?

Do it with a big, fat client.
- Zane promised Samantha

she'd be the next Name Partner.
- And did you tell him

that you made the same promise
to Alex?

- No, I didn't.
- You wanna take me on,

you go for it,
'cause I didn't get where I am

by letting people like you
push me around.

David Fox wants a fight
and I'm gonna give him one.

- A fight about what?
- He doesn't want to pay

our cleaning woman overtime.
- Harvey,

this isn't what we do.
- Mike would have done it.

And Mike's not here anymore
because he finally

came to terms with the fact
that this isn't what we do.

I'm not gonna let us
start losing clients

because you decided
the cleaning staff

is more important
than the needs of this firm.

I didn't do anything
that you didn't sign off on.

That's enough.
You don't go to war

with the guy
that owns your house

over something like this.

End it, and end it today.

I wanna make
a perfect baby with you.

- Are you sure?
- Absolutely.

And I don't want
to just pull the goalie.

I want to start trying,

and I want
to start trying right now.

From everything you told me,
you promised Samantha

her name would go up next?
- I did.

- I made Alex the same promise.
- Then I guess

there's only one thing to do.

Kick the can down the road.
- I know you think

we're in competition
for the same thing,

but we're not.

Robert Zane made me a promise.

The next name that goes up
on the wall is mine.

Bunny rabbit goes
around the tree once...

bunny rabbit goes
around the tree twice...

And I say bunny rabbit,
bunny rabbit, wanna play nice?

- Sheila, what are you doing?
- I'm hunting "wabbits."

No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no.

Not Fudd.

You know I can't resist
Elmer Fudd.

- Why would you want to?
- Oh, my God, Shelia,

I cannot right now.
- Why not?

Because I have
a client meeting,

and it's not just me.
Zane's coming too.

So whatever you had in mind,
it's going to have to wait.

All right.

I didn't want
to have to do this, but...

I'm fertile...

and I am ripe for the picking.

[saucy music]

So I don't care whether
you have a meeting or not.

I'm going to need
your Johnny Appleseed.

Sheila, you know
if there's one thing

that revs me up more
than Elmer Fudd

it's American folk heroes.
- Then I think it's time

for Paul Bunyan to march
across that forest

and take out his axe.
- Oh, I'm gonna

do more than that.

- You wouldn't.
- I would, because it's time

for John Henry
to swing the mighty hammer.

Did you know?

- Know what?
- That Zane promised Samantha

she was the next Name Partner.

Alex, let's go back up
to my office.

Sounds like
you could use a drink.

What I could use
is some God damn honesty.

Did you know?

- Yeah, I knew.
- Then why the hell

didn't you tell me?
- Because no one's

deciding anything right now
and I didn't want to upset you

for no reason.
- No reason?

Zane promised his right hand--
- I know what he promised.

But look, you got me
and you got Louis.

That's two against one.

When the time is right,
we'll out-vote him.

And when exactly
is the time going to be right?

Six months? A year?
Three years?

- Alex--
- No, Harvey, I want to know

when you're planning
on getting the balls

to stand up to that man
and what exactly

I'm supposed to do
in the meantime.

I'll tell you
what you're supposed to do.

You're supposed to have faith
and sit tight.

And if you were
in my position,

would you sit tight?

It may not be easy
but, yeah, I would.

That's funny,
because I recall you were in

a similar position years ago
with Jessica, and instead

of sitting tight,
you came to me

looking for another job.

Carrie, Harvey Specter.

This is my partner,
Alex Williams.

I'm sorry, I was thinking
it was just going to be

the two of us.
- It's okay.

Anything you can say
in front of me,

you can say to Alex.

In that case...

CrytoGen.

They're worth 80 million,
but they're sitting

on billions of undeveloped IP.

I've been trying to buy them
for two years.

Let me guess, you've used

every tactic in the book
to force them to sell.

Now you're looking
to try some

that aren't
in the book.

Let's just say
that of the 15 companies

that specialize
in financing that industry,

14 have suddenly
found themselves out

of the CrytoGen business.

And isn't it
the strangest coincidence

that the 15th just so happens
to be one of our clients?

The Lord works
in mysterious ways.

Just to be clear,
are you asking us

to pressure one of our clients

into cutting off
this company's lifeline?

Because that would be
against the law.

I'm not asking you
to do anything.

But were that to happen,

you'd suddenly find yourself
with a huge new client.

I'd say that sounds
pretty interesting.

And I say bullshit.
It's not going happen.

Well it better,
because that's what it's

going to take
to get our business.

Alex, why don't we listen to
what she has to say--

No, Harvey, I'm not looking
to cross the line

for these guys, and I
don't care if they tell me

they'll guarantee a year's
retainer in advance.

And what if I told you

that retainer would match
your highest-billing client?

Look, I think it's a mistake,
but if we're going do this,

we need to know
what we're getting involved in.

He's right.
You want us to risk this,

we need to knew every source
of funding you choked off

from these guys,
and every other shady thing

you've done,
because like he said,

I need to know exactly

what I'm getting myself
involved in.

Then we'll have everything
over to you

by the end of the day.

- Robert, got a sec?
- No, Louis, I don't.

Look, I know I said
that I'd be a little late--

But instead you decided
to tap your girlfriend

instead of doing
your God damn job.

Robert, I told you,
we're trying to have children.

You also told me you were
on your way to the meeting,

and I don't appreciate
being lied to.

Okay, listen to me.

I know I didn't show up,
but it doesn't matter

because whatever their issue is
I can handle it.

You don't have to handle it
because I already did.

What is that
supposed to mean?

It means that
as of this morning,

Samantha Wheeler
is handling the matter,

so you have plenty of time
for your family planning.

I am Name Partner.
This is one of

my oldest clients.
You cannot do this to me.

I didn't do this to you.

You did it to yourself
when you hung me out to dry.

file room right away and make

every document we have on
McKinley Outfitters disappear.

Can't do that, Louis.

over to Samantha Wheeler's
office an hour ago.

What?
How could you do that to me?

Because Robert Zane
stood here

and gave me
an order himself.

What choice did I have?
- God damn it.

Louis, I didn't tell the man
what happened

because I promised I wouldn't,
but he's punishing you

for something you don't deserve
to be punished for,

so why don't you just tell him?
- I'm not going to look weak.

Well, having him take
your client because you don't

have the courage
to tell him the truth

doesn't exactly
make you look strong.

Well, then I need
to take my client back.

How the hell
are you going to do that?

Easy.
She's a transactional woman.

I'll just tell her
I owe her one.

And you ask her
to go against Zane?

You might as well ask her
to set herself on fire.

Well, maybe if you'd
God damn help me

instead of telling me
how weak I am,

maybe we could
figure something out.

Louis, I am trying
to help you.

my dignity taken last night.

I can't have it taken again.

All right, Louis.

I help you with this,
I need to know

that you're going to be able
to keep it together.

All I need
is to take my client back.

you want McKinley back?

You need to put that woman

where she doesn't
have any choice.

to rob a bank

handing out pro bonos

in the first place?

that it was good--

It's a rhetorical question,
Donna.

I don't care what you thought.
- Understood.

Is that all?
- No, it's not.

What a COO should be doing

is maximizing our revenue
per square foot,

which starts by an assessment
of our revenue per square foot.

Well, that's not really
what I do.

It is now.
I want a report on my desk

by end of day tomorrow.

Does this have anything
to do with Louis?

Well, if that's

Hey.
Everything okay?

Yeah, I can see that,

First thing this morning,
Zane tells me

unless I sign Paxson, my name's
never going up on that wall.

What?
Have you told Harvey

about this?
- What good would it do?

Harvey's the one who put me in
this goddamn situation.

Wait, hang on a second,
I thought you were

on board
with going after CrytoGen.

I don't give a shit
what I was on board with.

When Zane didn't want to do it,
I was ready to back off.

- Then back off.
- And I do that,

I might as well kiss my chances
at Name Partner good-bye,

Alex, I don't think you're
giving Harvey enough credit.

He said, and I quote:

"I'm sure as shit
not interested

in you second guessing me
on Robert Zane's behalf."

- Good.

I mean you're in a
Kobayashi Maru.

What the hell does sushi
have to do with this?

It's not sushi,
it's from "Star Trek,"

about it for a hundred years.

I always thought it was
bullshit, but maybe it's not.

- What do you mean?
- I mean, sooner or later,

everyone finds themselves
walled into a no-win situation.

This one's yours,
and the way to prove yourself

to both Harvey and Zane
is to find a way out anyway.

Well, thanks, Donna.

And here I thought
going to Harvard

was the way to get ahead,
when really,

I should have just been
watching old "Star Trek"s.

Well, I didn't,
so unless the answer

is in an episode
of "Cagney and Lacey"--

You know what, Alex?
I'm trying to help you.

I'm not in the goddamn mood.

Okay, then let me
put it another way.

Unless you think you can
get your name on the wall

I suggest you stop worrying

about the problem, and start
worrying about the solution.

out of this situation,
