Nope 30 seconds early good learning to tell time ha ha ha I won't be in today.

What Jessica now?

I don't tell Jessica everything.

Oh, it's like a Harvey Specter's day off kind of a thing Should I call Ed Rooney see if we can get Sloan out of school mood today?

Life moves pretty fast if you don't stop and look around once in a while What do you think about Hardman running for managing partner?

I think he's gonna win why because you don't call for a vote unless you have the votes good We need to tip the scales in her favor.

Okay, what do you need me to do?

I need you to step up you're not gonna like it and Jessica can't know it came from me I gave Hardman the roadmap to settling with Tanner you voted for it.

Haven't we done enough to Jessica?

We're not doing this to Jessica.

We're doing this for Jessica We're gonna cross the line with this We've been crossing lines long before we even ever met.

You want to talk to Monica Eaton call her yourself I called her but she hung up the minute.

I said Pearson Harman.

Of course she did.

She hates everybody here She doesn't hate you.

Well, no, but that's because I'm adorable.

See I can't help you with that So why don't you try using your powers of adorability for good not a word and that is not being adorable Mike Seriously, this is not a small thing Look the last time you asked me to help you it was about Donna and look at how that turned out That wasn't me and this isn't that Monica Eaton is not Donna.

Maybe not but she still means something to me so tell me why I should convince her to talk to someone who works at a firm that she hates because You don't know the real reason why she left Monica Mike Ross, can I join you?

Chair's empty.

I Appreciate it.

Rachel said this was about one of my old cases This is a lawsuit that we just drew up in your name seeking ten million dollars in damages from Pearson Hardman Should have seen this coming five years ago.

You got screwed One way to put it you had options.

He didn't explore and you're exploring them for me I can make what stopped you before go away.

Yes Harvey will back your claim What about Jessica you don't need Jessica?

Why are you doing this?

Does it matter No, it doesn't I don't want anything to do with this Last five years haven't been easy for you.

Have they You don't know anything about me I know you've been working retail It's boutique on Park Avenue, right?

It's a good job.

You're making what 40 grand a year.

This is Manhattan.

Are you covering rent with that?

So you're the new attack dog?

Well spot, I'm not revisiting a story I spent the last five years trying to forget Just take it with you You may change your mind If you call me, I'll come fetch There's something I think you should know please Mike Ross had lunch with Monica Eden today.

I Saw him hand her a filing And why do you think this concerns me?

I just think that their meeting on the eve of the firm's vote suggests that Jessica is making a move You've been good to me since you've been back She hasn't I Expected a fight but not a dirty one I don't know what you're talking about Mike Ross met with Monica Eaton and what does that have to do with me?

I'm disappointed that you felt the need to go there.

I'm disappointed You think I did you really expect me to believe that you didn't stop right there You know, you might fight dirty and Harvey might fight dirty, but I don't What the hell are you doing Trying to get Monica eating to file a sexual harassment suit against Daniel Hardman Okay, she left because of their affair which she paid for with embezzled money That was five years ago and her life fell apart.

I know you think you're trying to help me but drop it immediately Wow That's what all this was about Nice performance trying to help Jessica Mike You cannot keep me in the dark not when you're the one asking me for help couldn't take the chance that you wouldn't help You told me it was about one of Monica's old cases.

You lied like it's second nature.

Our backs are against the wall I did what I had to do and you're proud of that Rachel Sometimes you have to cross a line to do the right thing Wow Harvey has really rubbed off on you.

I Had to go yesterday Fine Mike pull it off.

Yep.

You suspect you were in on it.

Nope Now they know I'm gonna swing us in boats.

We threw Daniel's ass out once we'll do it again.

Damn, right one more thing I'm getting Donna back You
