Louis broke me. Doing what he did to Donna..then Harvey confronting him in the bathroom. "Don't do this to me, Harvey, not now." In my own little world, Louis visits Donna and apologizes, like, down on his knees apologizing because NO WAY would he EVER do that to her if he were being himself. But oh yeah. Tanner would definitely do that. And him giving Harvey what for was right on.
The problem is that I see Harvey's POV. He didn't do anything wrong. He never committed fraud. Gah! I want him and Jessica to take the case to trial, and Donna is being all weaselly. She did it. She needs to fess up. Also, she calls Harvey on the Mike situation. "You fought for Mike's job. Did you fight for mine? funny how you managed to WIN that one, but not mine." Hmm....
My mouth dropped open wide when he said that about Ted Phillips. I was all, "is he joking? What? Did he jsut, OMG, he just said he tried to sleep with Ted Phillips!" I mean, yeah, it's a throw away joke, b/c that is so something Harvey would say, but holy crap. It's out there now. They can't take it back!
Mike chastising Jessica, though. Oh, I was so right on that. The whole time she had Louis on the stand, I was thinking, Louis is supposed to be Tanner, and Tanner's NEVER going to say this kind of stuff. Having Louis on the stand is completely useless. The jury is NOT going to be the partners of the firm, and Tanner wants to see Harvey go down. Louis resents and admires Harvey. Wants to BE him, of course he knows Harvey didn't commit the fraud. And Mike calls her on that very thing. And does NOT back down.
I like how Mike is coming into his own. How he's coping with increased responsibility and respect. And his answer on the polygraph: I'm proud to say I have a diploma from Harvard Law.
I have to admit, I cried a little with this episode. Just a little, and not because of Harvey or Mike, but Louis ripped my heart to shreds. It hurt him to do that to Donna. Physically hurt him, and I"m so glad he let that show to Harvey. So glad.
