"You done?" "It wasn't a joke." "Well, neither is this." "I told Jeff Malone I helped cover up" "Daniel Hardman's embezzlement." "Why the hell would you open that time capsule?" "Because he knew the explanation we gave the partners about Louis was bullshit, and I had to tell him something." "You could've told him it was none of his business." "Harvey, I didn't bring you here to get relationship advice." "I brought you here to tell you what I did in case it ever came up." "No, you didn't." "You brought me here because now you have to get Louis to back you, and you knew you'd be mad at me when I told you what you didn't want to hear." "You're right." "I don't want to hear it."

"And the shit's gonna hit the fan anyway." "You know what?" "You can be a real son of a bitch." "Yeah, but instead of being pissed at me, why don't you take a look in the mirror?"

"You're looking for a name partner." "Well, you can't quite see it from here, but if you walk back about ten feet, take a gander to your left, you'll see I've gotten a little recognition" "I appreciate that, but as I said," "I'm here to speak with Harvey." "(Mike) So are we gonna talk about that little welcome speech that Jessica made for Louis?" "(Harvey) We don't have to talk about it because Louis isn't going to accept it." "Why not?" "Because it'll be a cold day in hell when he can accept being Maverick to my Iceman." "Don't--don't you mean Iceman to your Maverick?" "No, I don't." "You actually want to be Iceman over Maverick?" " Who got the trophy?" " Who's the better pilot?" " The one who got the trophy." " Wrong." "Because in the end, Maverick saved Iceman, and if he hadn't, trophy boy would be sitting on the bottom of the Indian Ocean right now." " Where he'd still be the man." " According to you." "According to me is the only "according to" that matters." "Here we go." "(Gerard) Maybe, but according to me," "Viper was the real hero of that film." "What?" "You think I'm too old to know Top Gun?" "What I think is, you have no business being in my office." "Are we gonna do this in front of your associate?"

"Then you also know they found nothing." "(Mike) Then the question is, why are you here?" "The TSA found $25,000 in my luggage the day I announced I was changing the formula." "So now you're being accused of accepting a bribe." "Which I did not do." "(Harvey) Well, good luck proving that, Professor, because it won't be with my help." "I was wrong about you, Mr. Specter." "I never thought that you wouldn't represent somebody just because you didn't like them." "Well, you're wrong again."

"Well, he found out because Gerard was detained by the TSA." "Who talked to him for five minutes and then sent him on his way." "Those searches aren't a matter of public record." " Exactly." " Holy shit." "Brady bribed the TSA." "Which isn't only illegal." "It makes that report totally inadmissible." "You figured this out on your own?"

"You may not be willing to admit anything here, but you'll have to in front of the judge." "Because I've drafted subpoenas for every TSA employee on duty that night." "Drop the case, Mr. Brady." "Are you threatening me?" "No, we're informing you." "Well, let me inform you." "In case you forgot, the TSA falls under the Department of Homeland Security, which makes this a national security issue." "This has nothing to do with national security, and you know it." "All I know is the government found a large sum of cash on a passenger." "Now, how they came to know that, how they proceeded to investigate that, or what they did with that information is the government's business." "And that's what you're going with?" "That's not what I'm going with." "That's what they're going to go with." "So you can call up as many TSA agents as you like, but they're not gonna be saying a thing."

"There are a few things that you should know" "You see, what I know is your boss seems to think all it takes to impress Joan Walsh is getting Donna to make a fancy dinner reservation, but I'm going to impress her with so much legal domination" "that by the end of the night, all she's gonna be able to say is," ""Harvey Specter who?"" " Okay, that's a mistake" " A mistake?" "Oh, I get it." "You're trying to impress me with your legal domination to prove that you're not just a paralegal but an associate." "No, Louis." "I'm" "See, I don't care what you call yourself." "So unless you did such a shitty job, the files are unreadable, hand 'em over to me right now." "That's more like it." "What's this?"

"Hey, I didn't become name partner being stupid." "Didn't you?" "Two members of my board are about to reach their term limits." "At least one is being circled by Glamour Cosmetics." "You have just notified that person of a product that I've had in R  D for years, and now they can trade information for a seat on the board of my biggest competitor." "Joan, I didn't know" "Tell me, Mr. Litt, did you actually graduate from law school, or did you just buy your way onto the letterhead?" "[sighs]" "Yeah, you better put that bag down, because we're staying all night." "Didn't go well with Joan, did it?" "No, it didn't, because you sandbagged me." "I didn't sandbag you." "Well, then what do you call not telling me that Glamour was circling her board members?" "I tried to tell you, but you couldn't hear me through all of your rage." "What I'm not hearing is the sound of you putting your bag down, because the board members are meeting tomorrow afternoon, and I only have until then to fix this." "And you want me to help you?" "You're the associate on this case, aren't you?" " So now I'm an associate?" " Hey, you know what?" "Now is not the time to get into it." "No, now is exactly the time to get into it, because you have taken every opportunity possible to make me feel like I am nothing, and now, even though you want something, you're still treating me like I'm nothing." "I'm treating you like every other associate." "That is bullshit, and you know what?" "Even if it were true, you didn't used to treat me that way." "I didn't used to know you lied to me on a daily basis." "Louis, it would serve you right if I take my bag and leave you here and go home to the man that I love." "So you're not gonna help." "No, I'm gonna help you, but not because you deserve it." "I'll do it because I am an associate, and I am a professional, which means I am capable of putting the personal aside in order to do my job." "(Mike) And one of those, please." "Just what I was in the mood for." "Ah, you're getting a bagel." "That means you kicked ass." "Which I did." "You called up the TSA, busted up their national security defense?" "No, I used their defense." "Gerard's gonna testify under seal because it's a matter of national security." "And the judge bought that?" "What's not to buy?" "The TSA made the argument for us." "And what did Brady say?" "That's the best part about it." "He doesn't even know it." "It's a matter of national security." "We testify under seal, the judge realizes that Gerard is a degenerate gambler..." "But a fair mediator." "The case gets dismissed, and Garrett Brady and Harvard Law never know it happened." "You thought of all of that on your own?" "You think you're the only one who can come up with an intelligent solution?" "You are 1 for 400 in the time we've worked together." "Okay, smart guy, since I did your job for you, you're gonna do my job for me." "You want me to prep Gerard because you don't want to sit in a room and listen to him talk for two hours." "I didn't want to 15 years ago, and I don't want to now." "We only get one shot at this, and his testimony better be rock solid." "Thanks." "Oh, yeah, sure, help yourself!" "Dick." "I see you haven't slept." "I have a lot of work that needs attending to." "I bet you do, considering the phone call" "I got from Joan Walsh this morning." "[groans] She called you?" "She wanted to know what the other name partners were going to do about the one that screwed the pooch." "Oh, come on, that is not fair." "I didn't have all the information" "You had enough information to make a deal to get her from Harvey, and part of that deal was you backing me with Jeff." "Oh, so that's why you're here." "You don't trust I'm still gonna do it?" "Because you haven't done it yet, and you have a history of making poor decisions when things aren't going your way." "The only poor decision I've made is agreeing to cover for you in the first place." "You didn't think that was such a bad idea when you were using it to get what you wanted." "And now you're threatening to take that thing away." "Louis, you want to keep Joan, that's on you, but I held up my end of the bargain." "You better hold up yours." "(Mike) I just want to go over it one more time, Professor." "How much money was in that pot?" "I'm tried of going over it." "Why do we have to keep replaying every moment of this game?" "Because your entire case depends on it." "My case depends on the fact that I won that money gambling, not whether I won it with a flush." "Your case depends on the judge believing you, and if he finds any holes in your testimony, then we" "I gave you the names of everyone I knew at that game." "But none of those men were there when you won that money." "I can't help it if I didn't get the name of the guy I beat." "Which is why your story needs to be rock solid." "Okay." "Go ahead." "So I ask you again, Professor, how much money was in the final pot?" "Roughly $12,000." "And you won that hand." "As I said before, I won, and then I cashed out." "And what did you have again?" "A queen-high flush." "And who did you beat?" "I told you, I didn't get his name." "Okay, so what did he have?" "Two pair, queens over sixes." "Wait a second." "You said before that the man next to you folded with two queens up, and now this guy has two queens, and you had a queen-high flush?" "I said that the man next to me folded with two kings." "No, you didn't." "You heard me wrong." "No, I didn't." "Is this part of prepping me, or are you accusing me of something?" "I'm trying to get your story to line up." " My story does line up." " Not to me, it doesn't." "Look, young man, if you're gonna sit over there and call me a liar" "I'm not calling you a liar, but if you say tomorrow what you said today, we're gonna be in a lot of trouble, because where I come from, there are only four queens in a deck." "I said two kings, and I'm gonna say that again tomorrow." "So you do your job, and I'm gonna do mine." "(Mike) He's lying." "What are you talking about?" "Gerard's story about winning all that money playing poker is bullshit." "All right, slow down." "What the hell happened?" "I did the math, and the hands don't add up." "What do you mean you did the math?" "I mean first he said that he drew a queen on fourth street, and then when I pressed him about it, he" "Wait a second." "This conclusion is based on him recalling hands under cross-examination?" "Harvey, I got kicked out of Atlantic City for counting cards." " I know this shit." " It doesn't mean he's lying." "I got a little experience with that too, and I'm telling you, he was." " Or maybe he's tired." " Or maybe I'm right." "Or maybe you don't know what the hell you're talking about." " Why are you defending him?" " Because you asked me to." "Look, Harvey," "I'm not saying that he took a bribe." "I'm just saying that he didn't get that money playing poker." "Well, unless he admitted that, he's testifying tomorrow." "Since when do you stick your head in the sand?" " Did he admit it?" " No, he didn't." "But he screwed up the details, and he shouldn't have, because people who are telling the truth get it right." "And you know it." "What's that?" "Jacks full of fours." "I can see that, but why" "Why is it staring you in the face?" "It's what I threw down the last time I won a huge hand." "It was six weeks ago, and I can remember every hand that every player at that table had." "Now, if you won money the other night, you'd remember it too." "I do remember, and as I explained to your associate" "Yeah, stop bullshitting me." "Where the hell did that money really come from?" "'Cause if you don't tell me the truth," "I'm canceling that hearing right now." "It came... from a student of mine." "For what?" "In exchange for changing his grade." "Jesus Christ." "For $25,000?" "He was going to fail my class, and that would've stopped him from getting an offer from" "You goddamn hypocrite." "You preach about ethics, and you do this?" "This is about ethics." "And you don't have any idea why I did it." "I don't care why you did it." "I care about what you're making me do, because I am not suborning perjury." "Well, you tell me that you've never done anything worse." "I knew it." "You would do it for someone else... but not for me." "You know what, Professor?" "There's a small part of me that actually thought that you came to me because you thought I'm the best, but you just think I'll do whatever it takes to win." "Isn't that what makes you the best?" "Get someone else to do your dirty work, because I'm not suborning perjury." "[Louis sighs] [grunting]" "What are you doing?" "[grunts]" "Getting my blood flowing." "I've been sitting here all night, and restless leg syndrome kills 14 people every hour." "I don't think that's accurate." "I don't care what you think." "What do you have?" "I found a way to fix things with Joan." "[grunts]" "Okay, you're arguing anything in R  D is the intellectual property of the person who suggested the product?" "Until such time that the results become public." "Which they did the second I sent the board that letter." "Except board members are subject to the nondisclosure agreement." "Well, the board members haven't signed a nondisclosure agreement." "Yet." "What's to stop them from refusing?" "Nothing, but if they do, then the noncompete kicks in." "Preventing them from revealing the contents of my letter under threat of prosecution." "Specifically corporate espionage." "Oh, my God." "You got this idea from" " Our bylaws." " My bylaws." "Rachel, holy shit, this is... acceptable." "I think the word you're looking for is "awesome."" "Well, the word I'm saying is, "Get out, because I have a meeting to prepare for."" "You know what, Louis?" "I have been working all night." "And this gets your ass out of a major sling, so instead of dismissing me, you should be asking me to come with you." "Excuse me, Miss Professional." "You wanted me to treat you like every other associate." " Now I am." " By acting as if I did nothing?" "No, by acknowledging you did acceptable work." "Letting you come with me is something that I would only do for you if we were friends, which we are not." "[scoffs]" "You canceled the hearing." "You were right." "He was lying." "I'm sorry." "You know, I knew he was a hypocrite after I found out about the gambling." "I never thought he'd sell out Harvard." "What are you talking about?" "He did take the bribe, but it had nothing to do with the accident victims." "He did it to change someone's grade." "Why would he do that?" "What difference does it make?" "Either way, he was gonna let me suborn perjury." "It makes a difference because we still have to win this case." "Oh, I don't give a shit about winning this case." "[scoffs]" "I've never heard you say anything like that before." "You--you care about winning every case, every game, every argument." "Did you hear me?" "He was gonna let me suborn perjury." "And so would every client you have if they thought they'd get away with it." "He's not every client." "No, he's the one you hated in the first place." " I didn't hate him." " Harvey, what is going on here?" "I thought he was better than us." "I sat in that class and listened to him talk about what kind of lawyers we should be, and I always let him down because I knew that wasn't the kind of lawyer that wins." "And I wanted to win." "So I'd argue with him, and he'd look down on me." "And now instead of you letting him down, he let you down." "He turned out to be no better than any of us." "So then let's make him better than us." "[indistinct chatter]" "Miss Walsh." "(Walsh) You are not on my schedule today." "Ah, ah, Miss Walsh, please take a look at this." "What is it?" "It's a chance to make things right." "Ha." "You cannot call board members employees based on them having access to an expense account." "Not just an expense account." "They have corporate cards and standing offices, which, as defined by section 14.2 of the Internal Revenue Code, makes them employees." "Well, Mr. Litt, seems I won't be demanding a new point person after all." "I'm glad to hear that." "[scoffs] Are you?" "Of course I am." "You're my first client as name partner." "You're very important to me." "Well, I suppose we'll find out the truth when someone else makes name partner." "What are you talking about?" "I'm not an idiot." "I know that no one in your firm wants to deal with me." "That's not true." "In fact, I fought for you." "You may have thought you were fighting for me, but I know that Jessica dumped me on Harvey, and it seems that the second you made name partner," "Harvey did the same thing to you." "Oh, you didn't know that, did you?" "Then maybe we were meant for each other, since we're both left out of the club." "You betrayed me." "You make this big speech about repairing our friendship, and all it was was more words." "What are you talking about?" "You convinced me to take Joan, while conveniently leaving out the fact you're doing Harvey a favor." "That's not why I did it, Louis." "Well, just tell me right now, can he stand her?" "No, but he was gonna keep her because you" "Hurt his precious feelings." "I know." "I felt so awful about that." "You know what, Louis?" "You should." "And while you're at it, you should feel pretty awful about being a dick to me right now." "You lied to me again." "No, Louis." "I fought for you...again." "No." "You made Joan sound important." ""The first client that Jessica gave Harvey when he made name partner."" "She is important, Louis, but you can't see that because you didn't want a client." "You just wanted to take something away from Harvey." "What I want is respect." "Then get out of your own way and get on the goddamn team." "You mean the team that kept Mike's secret from me?" "No, Louis!" "I mean the team that protected its own, because that's what teams do." "And, you know, I shouldn't even be telling you this because she wasn't going to, but if you need a little bit more evidence of what we do for each other, then take a look at Rachel," "because she got Katrina a job." " What?" " That's right." "Your former associate, and you've been treating Rachel like shit." "So, if you're done yelling at me, then I suggest you go fix one of the thousand things that you have screwed up lately, because the rest of us, we are done fighting for you." "[indistinct chatter]" "(man) Mr. Ross." "(Mike) Ah, you must be Ian." "And, please, don't call me Mr. Ross." " Mike is fine." " Ah, sure." "Hey, thanks for your call, Mike." "Pearson Specter is a great firm." "Ah, well, you're a great candidate." "I'm a little curious why you're still interviewing." "I heard you had a solid offer at Skadden." "I do, but Skadden Arps is no Pearson Specter." "[laughs] Are you sure it's not because you're worried they'll find out that you failed" "Professor Gerard's legal ethics class?" " What?" " Oh, shit." "You don't know." "He hasn't changed your grade, but he still has your $25,000." "[sighs]" "Who the hell are you?" "I'm exactly who I said I was." "The only thing I left out is that Professor Gerard is my client." "Well, he can't be in trouble for this." "I'd know." "He's not." "He's being accused of accepting a bribe while conducting a federal mediation because of this." "That's not my problem." "It's your problem now, which is why you're gonna sign this." "What is that?" "It's a sworn affidavit stating the money that you paid Gerard is a loan." "Well, what happens to my grade?" "It stays the same because Henry Gerard doesn't take money to change grades." "That's bullshit." "We had a deal." "Yeah, well, consider this your first lesson in the real world." "Deals change." "I don't care what world it is." "I'm not signing anything." "That's too bad, because the truth will come out." "And this way, you're failing a class instead of getting thrown out of school for bribing a professor." "It's up to you, Ian." "You want an F, or do you want to not have a legal career at all?" "(Gerard) So I sign this, and the bribery allegations are gone?" "And no one ever knows a thing." "But I still have to pay Ian back the money." "That's the way loans work." "You say that like I am a monster." "I say it like it's true." "You know... you never let me tell you what the money was for." "You didn't listen to me when I told you I don't care." "Who's the monster now?" "I don't care because you always said the circumstances don't matter." "Well, do you care that after Mike grilled me," "I was so impressed with him that I wonder why I'd forgotten him." "So I looked through my old records, just to see how he did, but I couldn't find any record of him ever being in my class." "Just like they're not gonna find any record of you accepting a bribe from a student." "[chuckles]" "You saying we're even?" "I'm saying you got a two-for-one, because they're also not gonna find any record of you gambling last year." "That's why you came to see me back then, isn't it?" "You didn't want anyone to find out about him." "I'm not gonna tell you why I came to see you last year, Henry, because the circumstances don't matter." "[laughs]" "You really did pay attention in my class." "A lot more than you think." "I'm sorry I let you down, Mr. Specter." "Professor..." "Don't worry about paying back that loan." "I got it." "[melancholy guitar music]" "♪ ♪" "Louis... what can I do for you?" "The question isn't what you can do for me, Jeff, but it's a matter of what you're gonna do, which is cut the bullshit right now." " What?" " You heard me." "I know Jessica told you about Hardman." "Yeah, she did tell me, and I have refrained from coming to see you about blackmailing her out of courtesy." "Courtesy?" "You haven't so much as wished me a congratulations." "You want me to kiss the ring, Louis, after what you did?" "You're damn right I do, because I don't care how it got up there." "My name is on that wall." "And if I had a crowbar handy..." "I would pry it off." "Well, Jeff, you don't." "So the question you got to ask yourself is," ""Do you want to stick with the team?"" "Because my name is up there to stay whether you like it or not." "♪ ♪" "[indistinct chatter]" "Hey." "Thanks for meeting me." "What's going on?" "I wanted to thank you for making me take Gerard." "What happened?" "What makes you think something happened?" "Because I know you, and I know you don't have moments of self-reflection, let alone have a drink with someone to tell them about it unless something happened." "You know what?" "Something did happen." "I dealt with some shit, and I'm trying to thank you for it because it turned out to be a good thing." "I think the word you're looking for is "closure."" "That's your word." "The word I'm looking for is," ""You're welcome, Harvey." "That's nice of you to say."" "Thanks, Harvey." "Good." "Now listen to me." "For a minute there, I thought you were gonna tell me that he knows." "What?" "Maybe I'm crazy, but when I was prepping him, for a second, he looked at me, and I thought," ""He's suspicious.""
