Suits (2011–…): Season 4, Episode 5 - Pound of Flesh - full transcript

Mike tries to bluff Harvey with his newfound money, but the move backfires, and the case takes a physical toll on Rachel. Meanwhile, Louis helps Donna memorize some Shakespeare for a play.

But it's not Woodall
coming after us.

It's Sean Cahill.

Welcome to the new SEC.

We target law firms.

Mr. Forstman.
No.

You'll miss the opportunity to
get back at Harvey Specter.

You've got my 230 mil.

Once the deal closes,
you cut Sidwell out.

What happened to "You think
I'm staying if you leave?"

Yeah, that was before I knew you
were gonna screw over Sidwell.

Forstman doesn't throw money around
without getting something in return.



I have no other choice!

So, we're just going to go back
and forth, trading favors?

Are you my lawyer or not?

Seriously, Rachel, I couldn't
have done it without you.

Logan, I should go.

Mike?

I'm right here.

Did you turn off my alarm?

I did.
It's after 9:00.

I've been sleeping for...
Almost six hours.

I know. And the truth is,
you need more.

Why would you do that?
Rachel, you've been running

back and forth between school
and the firm like a maniac.

I don't even remember the last
time you got a good night's sleep.



That doesn't give you
the right to do that.

Plus, Harvey's going to kill me.

He'll get over it. And I've
got three briefs to write,

plus a paper for torts, and a...

And a contracts exam tomorrow.

I don't have the luxury
to sleep in.

Then you need to ask Harvey

for a day off this week.

Did he ever give you time off
because you were overworked?

No, he didn't.

Exactly. I don't want to
be any different.

Mr. Jamieson, you are hereby
remanded to the federal penitentiary

in Danbury, Connecticut.

You might want to call me
about an appeal.

The prosecutor has a reputation
for bending the rules.

You must be the infamous
Harvey Specter.

And you must be the chump Eric
Woodall ordered to come after me.

Chump is my name
on my mother's side.

I do prefer Cahill.

And I prefer you manufacturing bullshit
to get my clients to turn on me.

I'm sorry. I'm not in the
manufacturing business.

I'm just a humble civil servant.

And if you're as clean
as you say you are,

your clients won't have
anything to give us.

Unless you bully them
into making things up.

Oh, see, now, I think you've
got us confused.

Because that sounds like
something that you might do.

The point is, Sean, you
had a secret little plan

and I've taken away
your element of surprise.

Have you?

You may know that I'm coming,
but do you know where?

Or when?

You see, while you're
battening down the hatches

at B4, I might be at D12 or H3.

And before you know it, I have
sunk your battleship.

That's a cute game.

I was more of a
Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots guy.

So you think you can knock my
block off, Harvey?

I know I can.

Because I had
Eric Woodall fired.

So, stay the hell away from my clients or
I'll pave the same career path for you.

Okay, your hands
weren't full with Eric.

They will be full with me.

Harv.

You want to talk about it?

Talk about what?

That 10,000-pound weight
on your shoulders.

Mike, if you feel this way now,

what are you gonna feel like
when you cut Sidwell out?

If I cut him out.

What are you talking about?

I've been thinking about it.

I haven't actually taken
Forstman's money yet.

If I can get Harvey to back off before
I do, then I might not even need it.

You want to use the idea of
Forstman's money to cut a deal.

But Mike, they have money, too.

Yeah, which they can't spend
until their TRO expires.

Yeah. But that's next week
and it's not like

there's some huge block
of shares available now.

Ripped By mstoll

Wexler's merging two
of their funds.

So what?

So, their investment
parameters don't allow

for more than 4% of their
holdings in any one industry.

They have to sell a
block of something.

But how do you know it's gonna
be Gillis Industries?

Because I did the math.
That's what I would do.

You think Harvey will go for it?

There's only one way
to find out.

Hey, I don't have any
cash on me,

but if you want to bring my luggage
up, I'll get you on the way back.

Yeah, you know what?
That's okay.

I don't need a tip now that I have
enough money to buy your whole building.

Yeah. What are you
doing here, Mike?

Well, you came to give
me some friendly advice.

I thought I would
return the favor.

I don't remember asking.
Mmm, yeah.

Neither did I.

Walk away, Harvey.

Excuse me?

You're gonna lose.

If you think

you getting a little
loan is gonna stop me,

I didn't teach you much.

It's not a "little" loan.

I've got one of the most powerful
players in the world behind me.

Which is exactly where he needs
to be to stab you in the back.

Well,

wherever he's standing, this is what I'm
prepared to offer Logan Sanders to go away.

I know I don't need
to remind you

that you're legally required
to run that by your client.

I just ran it by him.
No deal.

Harvey, what are you... You haven't
taken Forstman's money yet.

He's got some kind of gun to your
head and you're just trying to use

his promise of cash
as leverage against me.

This isn't a bluff, Harvey.

I came here to give you a way out.
Bullshit.

You came here to give
yourself a way out.

But I wasn't born yesterday
and I'm not giving it to you.

See the money wanna stay
for your meal

Get another piece of pie
for your wife

Everybody wanna know how it feel

Everybody wanna see
what it's like

I'll even eat a bean pie
I don't mind

Me and missy is so early

Busy, busy making money

All right!

All step back,
I'm 'bout to dance

The greenback boogie

Did you go to see Sean Cahill
in court this morning?

I'm not in the mood
for a lecture.

I'm not lecturing.
I'm asking you a question.

Yes, I did.

And before you tell me this is
what we brought Malone in for.

I'm not going to tell you that.
Good, because...

Now, Cahill's coming
directly after you. Exactly.

And you're on your way
to tell Malone

to concoct some bullshit to
legally get us that Wexler block.

Look who's been
reading the papers.

I'm not the only one who can
read the papers, Harvey.

So can you.
So can Mike Ross.

He's gonna go
after those shares.

He is now.
What are you talking about?

He tried to buy us off.

And you turned him down?

Yes, which is why
I'm going to see Malone.

No, you're not.
Jessica, we have to...

I'm not saying we don't.

I'm saying I'm going to
be the one to do it.

You know he's not gonna like it.

He doesn't have to like it.
He has to do it.

Therefore, prepare
thee to cut off the flesh.

Shed thou no blood,
nor cut thou less,

nor more but just
a pound of flesh.

If...

Louis.

How long have
you been standing there?

Long enough to become part of you.
Okay.

You know what?

I don't have time for
you to be creepy.

So, does this mean you're
doing theater again?

Yes, I am playing Portia in
Merchant of Venice.

Now, can you please
just let me get back to...

Holy shit, Donna.
That is a meaty part.

Yeah, it's 588 lines,
which I have yet to memorize.

Wait.

So, you're not off book?

Louis, if I were off book,
would I be pacing

around the copy room
with a script in my hand?

All right. Just calm down.
No need to panic.

When do you open?
Tonight.

Tonight?
And you're not off book?

What the hell's
wrong with you, Donna?

I mean, only...
This isn't helping.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be...
I knew it.

I bit off more than
I could chew.

No, no, no, no, no.
Just relax.

Okay? I don't care if it
takes all day,

we are gonna memorize
these lines together.

Thank you, Louis.

No need.

For one canst choke on the joy
of life without thy mouth full.

Is that the Bard?
No, it's the Litt.

And roughly translated, it means

when we're done,

you are gonna kick
Shakespeare's ass.

M'lady.

I take it, it didn't go well.

What gave it away?

Because I know you, and you
don't have your usual

"I'm super cool Mike Ross" face.

If you knew me that well, you'd
know I'm not in the mood.

Mike, I'm not your enemy and I don't
appreciate being treated like I am.

I know. I'm sorry.

So, what did Harvey say?

It's not what he said.
It's what he did.

He knew what I was trying to do and
he called my bluff right there.

He didn't even share
the offer with Logan?

No, he didn't.
But you said he had to.

You want me to sue him for that?

So, what are you gonna do?

You know what I'm gonna do.

Mike...
I don't want to hear it.

I wasn't disapproving.

I just want to make sure
you've exhausted

all your options.

I have.

Then, maybe you... Amy, the second
I bid on that block of shares,

I've already taken
Forstman's money.

Mike Ross' office.

I'll tell him.

Sidwell?

He wants to see you.

You look good.

This isn't a social call.

All right, I take it back.

Wexler is divesting a huge
block of Gillis Industries,

and I need you to find a creative
way to buy them for Logan Sanders.

If I'm not mistaken,

Logan Sanders has a TRO
that actually prohibits him

from buying
any additional shares.

Which is why you're going to set up
a trust for us to buy it for him.

That's called parking, Jessica.

I know what it's called.

Then, maybe you also
know it's illegal.

I know it can be illegal.

And I need you to figure out
a way to make it questionable.

And here I thought you came in here to
tell me how much fun last night was.

Well, speaking of last night,

you said you blamed yourself

for helping Cahill
drop those cases.

So here's your chance
to make up for it.

Remind me never to have a moment
of self-reflection around you.

I'm not using this as ammunition,
I'm using it as motivation.

So, figure out a way to
set up the trust,

and do it quickly because
we're running out of time.

You wanted to see me?

Come here.

I want to show you something.

Lionsdale Electronics.

Three million shares
bought out by management.

My first LBO.

I was right out of school. All I wanted
was to get that first tombstone.

Because it meant...

Your first deal.
Broke my cherry.

Must have been nice.

It was.

You know what the difference
between you and me is?

I was just an analyst. I mean,
sure I did all the work,

but I didn't do any of the work.

Know what I mean?

Jonathan...
Don't be modest.

I know I've been on your case.
But the truth is,

you made this all happen.

I haven't made anything
happen yet. No.

You haven't.

And there's a rule

against giving out
tombstones too early.

Not supposed to jinx it.

But there's no rule
against this.

We can fill it in later.

Thank you, Jonathan.
You're welcome.

Now, go bring this bad boy home.

Rachel, they loved it.

We are gonna go after
Piedmont in a week.

We're gonna have a lot of work to do.
Give me a call when you get in.

Harvey.

Can I help you with something?

Yes, you can help by telling me
how much longer it's gonna take

for you to find me a way
to bid on that stock.

It's gonna take as
long as it takes.

Well, it better not

be more than a day
or I won't need it at all.

It's so good to hear this from
the horse's mouth.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means the next time
you want me

to break the law, at least have
the balls to ask me yourself.

The balls?

First off, Jessica

insisted on asking you herself.

And I agreed with her because
we're on the same page.

And nobody's asking
you to break the law.

We're telling you to
sidestep it.

That's not the job
I signed on for.

The job you signed on for is the
job we tell you you signed on for.

That's a bullshit
justification and you know it.

What I know is

there's a reason we make
the kind of money we do.

It's because we figure out a way
to get things like this done.

So, stop questioning
my integrity

and start doing your job.

Harvey, do you have a second?

That's about all I have.

All right.
I was, um, wondering if

maybe I could possibly just...
Time's up.

Could I get a day or two off?

A day? Or two?

A day. I just need
one day away.

Are you sure that's
all you need?

I'm sure.
Would you also like me

to make your bed?

What?

Maybe I can triple your salary
while we're at it.

No, that's not...

No, really. What can I do
to make your life easier?

That is not fair.

I have been juggling work and
school for months now, and I...

I haven't asked for any
special treatment.

You're asking now.

I'm not asking for time off
to go to the Hamptons.

This is law school
I'm talking about.

You said a day away. You didn't
say anything about law school.

Well, it's for law school.
Well, this is your law school.

This. Right here.

And by the way,
we're paying you for it.

I know.
And I'm grateful.

If you're grateful, then you'll stop
complaining about how much work you have to do

and you'll figure out how
to best manage your time.

But as far as getting time off,

that's not gonna happen if you
still plan on working for me.

Now, you still need a
day or two off?

No. I can manage.

Thou shalt have nothing
but the forfeiture,

to be so taken
at thy peril, Jew.

Why, then that the devil
give him good of it.

I'll stay no longer question.

Come on, let's go.
This "be-eth" awesome.

Where's your script?

I don't need a script.
I'm off book.

How can you be off book?
You're not even in the play.

Because I know all of Willy's
work by heart.

All 37 plays.

Mmm-hmm.

Troilus and Cressida?

For to be wise and love
exceeds man's might.

Titus Andronicus.

Vengeance is in my heart,

death in my hand, blood and
revenge are hammering in my head.

What? What's the matter?

Are you kidding me?

You have every word this man's

ever written memorized, and
I'm on in an hour and a half,

and I'm gonna make
a fool of myself.

Donna, forget about my extraordinary
gift and focus on yourself.

We have done this whole play. You
know your part. It will be fine.

It's not gonna be fine.

Donna! I haven't been
on the stage in years.

So, you're nervous.

All great performers
get nervous.

It brings out the genius.

What if I'm not genius?
What if I'm not even good?

I was pretty damn good, Louis.

I was.

But I knew the odds of somebody
making it were close to zero,

no matter how good they were.

My father lost our money
when I was 13, and I...

I found out what it was
like to struggle. So...

Instead of pursuing my dream,
I chose this.

And that let me pretend that maybe
I was good enough to make it.

But what if I wasn't?

Mmm. All right, look.

I'm gonna tell you something about
myself that I never told anyone.

I have stage fright.

I got it when
I was in third grade.

I let it get the best of me.

I never got over it.

And I cannot let you
make the same mistake.

But I...
Look at me.

Donna Victoria Paulsen.

You have never been
more beautiful

and talented,

and perfect than
you are at this very moment.

Your time is now.

And you're gonna kill it.

Thank you, Louis.

No.

Thank you.

My middle name is Roberta.

I'm so sorry for that.

Hey.
Hey.

Are you working late?

You really have to ask?

I thought maybe it would be nice

for us to lie down a little bit.

Together.

I would love that.
But if I lie down,

I probably won't get back up.

I know you don't want
to hear this,

but I was thinking
about it, and...

Harvey did kind of give me
special treatment.

Mike...

He let me skip law school.

Yeah.

Hey.

Maybe if you just find
the right time to ask him...

I did.
And he bit my head off.

So please, just let it go.

Okay?
Okay.

I just wish all this Harvey

and Logan bullshit
would be over.

Yeah. Me too.

Maybe when it is, we can get

out of town for a weekend.

I would love that.

I'm worried about Cahill,
Harvey.

I've checked with everyone I know.
He hasn't done a thing.

Me too. Which is exactly
why I'm worried.

Jessica, I don't know
what to say.

If I have to look over my
shoulder every 15 seconds,

I might as well give
up right now.

Okay, but it doesn't mean
you stop looking altogether.

Hey. Do you have a minute?

Did you set up that trust?

No.
In that case, we don't.

I did something better.

We're listening.

One of the biggest red flags

at the SEC is a stock
purchased with money

kept in trusts for clients.

We've gone over this.

Let him finish.

On the other hand,

there's nothing unusual
about a retainer.

A retainer.

From what I gather, this takeover
is a massive undertaking, right?

Now, I don't know how you've
structured Logan's payments,

but I think it's time
he pay this firm

a hefty fee up front.

And something on the order of
$20 million.

And we use $20 million of our
own money to buy that stock.

There's nothing that prohibits
us from investing as a firm.

And when the bulk of our legal
work is done,

it turns out
he has money coming back.

We may just end up giving him the
shares instead of his unused retainer.

Which we cannot plan or even discuss
with Logan Sanders in advance.

And that makes it legal?

No.

It makes it questionable.

Because they still might figure
out what we did and make a case.

"We"?

You tell me, Harvey.

Am I on the team now?

Sounds like you're being a little bit
of a dickhead about this whole thing,

so I'd say yes.

Louis.

Do you have a minute?

Oh, no. It could not
have been that bad.

Oh, it wasn't.

It was amazing.

I mean,
it was like riding a bike.

I got two standing O's, and
I've got you to thank for it.

Well, that's great.

What's wrong?

Shylock got drunk
at the after party,

fell down a flight of stairs
and broke his ankle.

Which means
the show won't go on.

Oh, no, no, no.
The show must go on.

Well, the show... can go on.

No.

Louis.

Come on.

You're the only one
who can do it.

No, I can't.

I wanted to be a molar.

But that teacher's pet,
Dorothy McHale, got the part.

So I was forced to be plaque.

I had to wear this ridiculous
flesh-colored unitard

and drape myself over
my classmates.

And every parent
in the audience laughed at me.

Louis... And then, the next
year, I got a bigger part.

I walked right out on stage. Tommy
Gallup screams out, "Plaque man!"

Once again,
everyone laughs at me.

So, right then and there,
in the middle of the stage.

I...

I peed my pants.

So I ran right off the stage,
never went back,

and I am not going back again.

Louis.

A part like this doesn't
come around very often.

You gave me a gift, and
I killed it because of you.

Donna, please.

I'm not a lawyer, Louis.

This is my chance to shine.

But I'm about to lose

two more glorious nights.

I've never asked anyone for anything
like this, but there's no other choice.

Please do this for me.

Please.

You want me to sell
directly to you?

I don't want you to.
You're going to.

Why would I do that?

Because I'm the only one who's
gonna buy your block at a premium

instead of you flooding the market with
shares and ending up getting a discount.

That's funny.

That's exactly what someone
else just told me an hour ago.

What? And now I'll tell
you what I told him.

I'll shut everyone else out,

but you two are going to
have to go head-to-head.

You're talking about
a dark pool bidding war.

That's no different than what
you were talking about.

You just wanted to be
the only one bidding.

Thanks for the scampi,
Mr. Ross. It was delicious.

I'll be in touch
with the details.

Who's the other entity?

If you can't figure
that out for yourself,

I don't think you're likely to come
out on top of this whole thing.

What the hell
do you think you're doing?

I think I'm washing my hands,
which I'd like to do without you

bothering me about whatever
bullshit you're here for.

Bullshit?

We'll see if the SEC
thinks it's bullshit

that you're
buying stock illegally.

You're throwing some pretty big
accusations around for such a little guy.

You think I didn't
do my homework?

The registered bidder traces back to a shell
corporation we used six times last year.

We're allowed to play the stock
market as much as the next fellow.

You think because you're using
firm money, that makes it legal?

You're damn right I do.

Because we have no
plan to do anything

other than keep those
shares ourselves.

Now who's talking bullshit?
What are you gonna do, Mike?

You gonna run to the SEC?

You think I won't?

These aren't
your daddy's tapes, Harvey.

These are the rules of the game.

Then let me dial their
number for you.

Because if you report us, they'll
put a freeze on this sale.

And by the time we get it all
straightened out, my TRO will be expired

and we'll be right back to where
we're headed this afternoon.

You're a sore goddamn loser.

I would be, if I ever lost.

See you at 6:00.

Guess what piece of shit lawyer just
got himself a seat in the Wexler pool?

Mike, what are you doing here?

What do you mean?
The sale's not till 6:00.

Didn't you check your messages?
No, why?

Columbia University called.

Rachel was taken
to the hospital.

Rachel Zane.

Sorry?

You have a patient here. Rachel Zane.
What room is she in?

Uh, Miss Zane is resting
and can...

What room is she in?

As I was saying, she can't
have any visitors.

Look at me. I'm gonna ask you
one more time. What room...

Mike.

She's in 1024.
You've seen her?

It's locked.
I don't care.

What are you gonna do?

Are you gonna break
the door down?

Yeah, if I have to.

I spoke to her doctors.

They said she fainted
at school. She's fine.

If she fainted, she's not fine.

They said she's run down and a
little dehydrated. It's okay.

Okay, so then, why won't
they let us see her?

Because she's sleeping
and she needs it.

Mike.

She's fine.
She's gonna be fine.

What are you even doing here?

I'm one of her emergency contacts.
They called me.

Yeah, I know, but...

What's a heartless shithead like
me doing in a place like this?

Yeah, something like that.

I would have come for you if you
ever worked hard enough to pass out,

but you never did.

Look.

There's a steakhouse
across the street.

Why don't you and I
go get something to eat?

What, are you gonna break the
door down and wake her up?

No, I'm gonna wait outside of
it and be there when she does.

Yeah, which won't happen for another
eight hours because they sedated her

to make sure she got some sleep.

Now, come on.
Let's go get some food.

Don't you need to be
at an auction?

Right now, I don't want to be at
that sale any more than you do.

You're saying you're
willing to postpone it?

I'm saying I already did.

Come on.

No, I'm telling you,
Dr. Lipschitz,

this is like the whole plaque
incident all over again.

Yeah. Yes, I have told you
about the plaque incident.

What... At least twice. I...

No, you know what? That's. You know what?
Forget it.

That's not the point.

The point is, is that
I'm supposed to be

leaving for the
theater in 10 minutes

and I am a complete wreck.

I have the worst case of cotton
mouth in the history of...

What? No, you can talk
with cotton mouth.

That's friggin' lockjaw.
You...

You know something, Doc? Sometimes I
just think that I've wasted every single

Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
for the last 14 years.

You know, this is the first time
we've ever had a steak dinner.

I didn't know you were
keeping a tally.

It's pretty easy to do
when the grand total is zero.

I know.

I said I wanted to take you out the
night you told me you were leaving.

We never got around to it.

I never got around to it.

What's the real reason you
were at the hospital tonight?

The truth?

Rachel asked me for some time off
and I all but spit in her face.

So, you felt guilty.

Pretty much.

Plus, I knew you needed something
to take your mind off her,

but I can see this dinner
with me isn't working. So...

Here.

Holy shit.

What is this?

Louis is in a play.

You wanted to cheer me up and you
didn't start the night with this?

Come on.

I wanted to save something
for dessert.

Oh, my God. That's got
to be a codpiece, right?

What are asking me for?
I don't want to know

if Louis is packing
that kind of heat.

What, you think I do?

You're the one who went
mudding with him.

It was covered in mud.

How much mud?
Stop.

Why would I ask that?

Aw, man.

I shouldn't be laughing at him.

He still hasn't forgiven me
for using Sheila against him.

Mike, you did what
you had to do.

You don't think
that was crossing a line.

It was way over the line.

But I got to tell you,
it was brilliant.

It was harsh,
but it was brilliant.

You know, Harvey, I, um.
I never told you.

What you did with Gillis.

I know you had to do it.

Like I said before. We
do what we need to do.

Louis, you're almost up.

Oh, Christ, you're sweating
more than Nixon.

I've gone through four Elizabethan
collars and a codpiece.

Okay, just breathe.
You're gonna be fine.

No, I can't do it.

Louis, we are in the
middle of the play.

You'll have to ad lib.
Make something up.

Say Shylock went away.
Say that he went to Israel.

Oh, my God.

Wow. I don't even know
what to...

You know what?

I never thought
you'd be so weak.

Okay, why do you got to say
something hurtful right now?

Screw hurt.
Turn that into rage.

Why would I do...

You always turn hurt into rage,
you idiotic piece of shit!

It is what you do.

Okay, now, I'm mad at you.

Good! Now, imagine
you're in court.

How? It's too hard
with the curtains.

Just do it, dipshit. Okay, fine.
I'm in court.

Goddamn it.
You happy now?

No, I'm not happy, you idiot.

Now, you're in court
and you're enraged

and you are fit to kill.

Now, do you see
that audience out there?

That's your jury.

They're a bunch of morons.

Yeah. They're beneath
you, aren't they?

They're beneath everybody.
What else?

They're a bunch of civil servants who
can't keep up with what I'm saying.

You have absolute and total
contempt for them, don't you?

I want to rip out their stupid
brains from their stupid heads.

Exactly.

Now, get out there and
make your case.

Unless, of course,
you're a pussy

and you were only meant to
play plaque your whole life.

3,000 ducats...

I'm gonna head back.

Hey.

Tell Rachel she should take
the day off tomorrow.

Thanks for this, Harvey.

Excuse me.
Which one of you is Franklin

and which one of you is Bash?

Did you boys have a nice date?

Couldn't be better.
He even paid.

Oh, I guess he's flush with
cash ever since he left you

and went into investment
banking.

I'm sorry. Do I know you?

No, but I know you, Mike Ross.

Sean here's with the SEC,

and he's using his position

to harass my clients
on behalf of Eric Woodall.

Actually, not anymore, Harvey.

I decided to take your advice
and focus on you.

Are you following me?

Oh, I've got guys who do that.

Then, you also better also
have authorization

from the Justice Department.

Getting authorization was easy.

Because I told them you two

are on opposite sides
of a takeover battle

and that your girlfriend
is your associate.

Are you trying to say
that we're colluding?

Oh, you went right there,
didn't you?

Because you led him there.

Well, in six hours that I've been
there, this is what I've learned.

Your girlfriend,

who I just mentioned works for you,
faints at law school for five minutes.

You guys meet at the hospital.

Then you have dinner
for two hours,

where you cancel a private stock
sale that you both arranged.

And one hour ago,

that stock mysteriously
gets bought

by some shell corporation
set up last year.

Wait. What?

Bullshit.
Here's my favorite part,

where you feign outrage and
you feign ignorance

to help sell the whole story.

Anyway, I just wanted to give
you a little heads-up.

Smile for the cameras.

Harvey.

You gave me your word.

And I kept it.
Oh, yeah?

Then what about that stock?

Jessica must have done it.
Bullshit!

No, it's not bullshit.

When were you planning on telling me
this guy was up your ass for collusion?

I didn't know about this until
five seconds ago.

There are only so many things
that I can buy, Harvey.

Listen to me. We can deal with
this guy's bullshit later.

Right now, let me deal with the stock
situation. I'll make it right.

You can't make it right.

Mike,

you used to trust me. I need
you to trust me right now.

Rachel, wake up.

Hey.

Where were you so late?

I was out.

Thinking.

Thinking what?

I don't want to be a fraud.

What?

I love you.

I'm married to her. But I don't
want to do that anymore.

I want to be married to you.

Logan...
Rachel,

will you marry me?

I can't.

Why not?

Because you'll always
be a fraud.

How can you say that to me?

Hey.

You okay?

Come on, go back to sleep.

I'll be here when you wake up.

Who told you to buy that stock?

Excuse me?

Let me start again.

Hello, Jessica.

I just found out we bought
the Wexler block.

Would you by any chance know
how that came to happen?

It came to happen when I found out
the dark pool had been canceled

and I couldn't reach you.

So, you took it upon yourself
to make a preemptive bid.

Of course I did.

If I hadn't, Forstman would have.
So, why are you here?

I gave Mike my word
we'd postpone the sale.

Well, I didn't give
Mike anything.

Do you even want to know why?
Not particularly.

It was because Rachel
passed out at school

and was in the hospital.

Is she all right?

Do you care? Don't you make me out
to be the villain in this, Harvey.

I am sorry Rachel fainted, but
our obligation is to our client,

and I'm not undoing that sale.

We can't tonight, anyway.

Why not?

'Cause Cahill came out of nowhere.
He's been having me followed.

He thinks Mike and I are
colluding on Gillis.

And if we undo that sale,
it will just fuel the fire.

I told you I was
still worried about him.

What did you want me to do?

Have myself tailed to pick
up a possible tail?

What did you come in here
to tell me, Harvey?

Now that Sean Cahill
is involved,

we also can't ever transfer
those shares to Logan.

Which conveniently helps fix
your deal with Mike Ross.

Jessica...
You know what?

It doesn't matter. We don't
need to transfer them.

We'll just vote Logan's way
when the time comes.

Jessica, I gave Mike my word.

Harvey, I don't care
if you took a blood oath.

Our duty is to our client, not
a handshake with Mike Ross.

And this discussion's over.

I checked you out. You're free
to go on your own recognizance.

How much was bail?

Oh, it's okay.
I took care of it.

How are you feeling?

You know,
I'm actually feeling...

I'm feeling pretty good. In fact,
I think that I'm going to...

Rachel, no. You can't
do any work today.

I'm just gonna stop by the office and put
away just three files, send four emails.

That's it. I...

I have to do this just for
my own piece of mind.

No more?

No more.

I won't even tell
anybody that I'm there.

I won't.

Louis, can I talk to
you for a minute?

Of course.

First of all, you were
remarkable last night.

Who said?

Everyone in the cast.

The Flushing Chronicle?

Um, you know, I don't actually
read the local...

You should.

Because they said I was a
shock to the senses.

I bought six copies
this morning.

I'm gonna send five to Esther

because she thinks she's a great singer.

Okay. Louis, what I came
in here to say...

Donna, I'm retiring.

You're what?

You helped me get over a fear that
I never thought I'd get over.

But I don't want to see the
audience as the jury.

I... don't want to have
disdain for them.

I am the audience.

And I want to love them.

Louis...
Donna, I'm sorry.

Because I know I'm taking away
your last glorious night from you.

But I...

Can't go on again.
I, um...

I can't do it.

It's okay, Louis.

It's okay.

It turns out that the other
Shylock only sprained his ankle.

Looks like he's gonna be able
to go on tonight after all.

Wait a minute.

He never hurt his
ankle at all, did he?

You know, I just knew that you had
a lot of things going on lately

with Harvey and Malone and...

Sometimes, the best way to deal
with disappointment in one arena

is to accomplish something else.

Thank you.

You're welcome, Louis.

Hey.

Remember when you said
that you're not a lawyer?

You could be.

I got Donna's message.
What's going on?

How's Rachel?

She's good.

Resting.

Mike...
Goddamn it, I knew it.

I knew you wouldn't fix it.
I tried.

You tried.

You're a name partner.

And she's the managing
partner, and you know it.

That wouldn't have made a difference
if you were fighting for you.

I fought Jessica for you and won more than
once, but this isn't one of those times.

Mike, believe me,
this isn't what I wanted.

My mistake was believing you
when you gave me your word.

No.

I made the mistake

by not believing in you the second
you brought me your takeover plan.

Look.

I don't have a lot of regrets.
It's just not who I am.

But... this is one of them.

If I could go back
and change it, I would.

But...

I can't.

Is that supposed to stop me?

No, I just wanted you
to know it.

Do what you have to do.

Mr. Ross.

What I can help you with?

Actually, nothing.

Nothing?
What do you mean, nothing?

I mean I made a mistake.

I'm gonna find another way
to win this thing.

I'm, I'm grateful, but...

I'm not gonna need your
money anymore.

You may not need
my money, but...

You've got it.

What are you talking about?

You think I didn't know
what you were up to?

You tried not to fund the money

so you could leverage
Specter out of the deal

and get out of our deal.

How...
Did I know?

I've done the same thing
a hundred times.

I'm actually glad you did it, because now I
know the kind of person I'm in bed with.

A sneaky little shit like me.

Yeah, but you know the
difference between you and me?

I'm not taking the money

because I don't want
to screw over my partner.

And if I were you,

I wouldn't want to screw
him over either.

That man has nothing but wonderful
things to say about you.

You had him take the money,
didn't you?

He couldn't believe it hadn't
happened already.

He told me he's having a little
tombstone made up for you.

Mike.

We are partners on this,
whether you like it or not.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to deliver these.

Who are those for?

Who do you think they're for?

For you, for your dressing room.

Thank you.

Let's go.

You're coming?

You think I'm gonna miss
your closing night?

I didn't know you were a
Shakespeare fan.

I'm a Donna fan.

You know, Harvey, you don't
have to do this.

I know you've got a lot
going on with Mike.

The only thing I've got
going on tonight is you.
