00:04I just don't understand.
00:05There's a lot of things that you don't understand.
00:06Everyone is wearing a black tie.
00:09You're wearing a gray tie.
00:10This is acceptable in a black tie affair.
00:12There's nothing wrong with the tie that I'm wearing.
00:16Champagne, sir.
00:18Is it?
00:19From the region.
00:21In France.
00:23Because if it's not, it's called sparkling wine,
00:25and I don't really drink sparkling wine.
00:27Forget it.
00:27Forgive him.
00:28His parents really wanted a girl.
00:30Never got over it.
00:31Wait a minute.
00:31You can taste the difference.
00:32I'm not being a snob.
00:33Not a snob.
00:34You sound like Frazier's brother.
00:35Niles Crane was completely misunderstood.
00:38Boys, you don't want me to give you a timeout, do you?
00:40I'd be willing to stand in a corner if you agree to paddle his bottom.
00:43That's hilarious.
00:44I'm just saying that if they want us to donate to their charity,
00:46they might as well step it up.
00:48You know, make me want to give away my money.
00:49Your money.
00:50You're here representing the firm, Louis.
00:52And we've always been committed to giving back to the community.
00:55Jessica.
00:56What's that?
00:59Tori.
01:00Yes, and I owe her a call.
01:01Excuse me.
01:09Do I smell like sausage?
01:11No more than usual.
01:12Why?
01:12Uh, because I'm about to meet the future, Mrs. Lewis-Lip.
01:15I had pizza before I came, and I just want to make sure I still am not emanating any aroma.
01:18Oh, you're emanating something.
01:20It's called pheromones, and women find it irresistible.
01:26Watch.
01:33Harvey, you remember Tori?
01:35Of course.
01:36Nice to see you.
01:36I told Jessica I don't really want to talk shop when we're here to support a good cause.
01:41Well, that's the beautiful thing about a retainer.
01:43We're always on call when you need us.
01:45So how can we help?
01:47It involves one of our most trusted senior VPs.
01:50Something recently came to light about his past.
01:53I'm shocked by it, really.
01:54Tell us where it hurts, and we'll make it go away.
02:08Oh, uh, wait, wait, uh, it's just, it feels like it's moving really fast.
02:17I should slow down?
02:19No, I just, I mean, like, I just got out of a relationship, and you kind of did too.
02:25I wasn't really seeing anyone.
02:27You know what I mean?
02:30Trevor.
02:32Yeah, Trevor.
02:34Right, Trevor.
02:37Yeah, no, you're right, we should slow down.
02:41I should make us some tea.
02:43You want some tea?
02:43Yeah.
02:44Let's drink some tea.
02:52What's the, uh, Harvard club?
02:55Oh, it's, uh, it's like this clubhouse for Harvard alumni.
02:59Yeah, that invite is, uh, it's for this networking thing for lawyers.
03:04I got it at work.
03:05Would you go?
03:06Wait, are you kidding me?
03:09No.
03:09I have hard enough time pretending at work.
03:11It's not like I want to enter the lion's den.
03:18Well, if you were going to go, and you were going to take a date.
03:24It would be you.
03:27I'd love to take you.
03:32Uh-oh.
03:34Uh-oh.
03:34Who's moving too fast now?
03:36Oh, well, I'll do it.
03:38Uh-oh.
03:38Staying home.
03:39Okay.
03:40Uh-oh.
03:43Uh-oh.
03:44Uh-oh.
03:49Uh-oh.
03:50Hey, what's the emergency?
03:51Couldn't find a date to the prom?
03:53We're firing Stan Jacobson.
03:55Who?
03:56Senior Vice President, Drybeck Accounting.
03:58Our accounting firm?
04:00Yes.
04:00They're our firm and our client.
04:02How's that possible?
04:04They signed a conflict of interest waiver.
04:06Look at that.
04:06He's actually learning how the law works.
04:09Acquaint yourself with Drybeck's company charter and Stan's original employment contract.
04:13What'd he do?
04:14He lied.
04:15He lied?
04:16About what?
04:16Wait, let me guess.
04:17He cooked the books.
04:19Has anyone on Wall Street put in an honest day's work anymore?
04:21Actually, he's got a stellar record as a senior VP.
04:25He lied on his resume.
04:27Never got a CPA license.
04:29Never even went to business school.
04:31He lied about where he went to school and now he's getting fired?
04:35Drybeck does the books for half of Wall Street.
04:38Word gets out that a senior staff is a fraud.
04:40They're going to start bleeding clients.
04:42We have to do this fast and keep it quiet.
04:47Relax.
04:48That's not going to happen to you.
04:50But I would get fired if Jessica found out.
04:53Found out what?
04:55You just told me he's a virgin.
04:58That doesn't surprise me one bit.
05:00All in due time, Mike.
05:02You have those severance quotes?
05:05Yes.
05:11Yes.
05:18Yes.
05:19Yes.
05:19Yes.
05:19You can't.
05:20Everybody want to see what it's like.
05:23Leaving you to me now.
05:25I'm alive.
05:26Me and this is the one that was the piece that made you wanted my life.
05:31Lord, you're my best.
05:33I'll come back but not my life.
05:37Dream back open again.
05:59Oh, where are you headed, Dolph?
06:01Pearson Hardman to see Mike Gross.
06:03Uh, are you expecting you?
06:05No, I was just going to drop this off.
06:07No appointment.
06:08I can't let you up.
06:10Do I look like a terrorist?
06:11Do I look like I want to lose my job?
06:13Jenny?
06:15Rachel.
06:16Hey, you ever see Mike?
06:17Sort of.
06:18I just, I was going to drop this suit off for him.
06:20Harvey called it last night, some big emergency,
06:23and Mike ended up staying the night.
06:24Actually, could you help me out?
06:26I'm running so late to work.
06:28Sure.
06:28Oh my god, thank you.
06:30Oh.
06:31Thanks.
06:32Okay.
06:34Oh, and can you tell Mike that I left the key under the mat?
06:38Absolutely.
06:39Thank you so much, Rachel.
06:40You're amazing.
06:43Bye.
06:44Bye.
06:46Bye.
06:48Bye.
07:03I'm up.
07:04I'm up.
07:04Your girlfriend stopped by.
07:06Dropped that off for you.
07:08Girlfriend?
07:09You guys move in together already?
07:10What?
07:11No, we, she's not like, why do you care?
07:14I don't.
07:14What was the big emergency last night?
07:17Um, Harvey.
07:18He's firing some big VP from our accounting firm this morning.
07:21Stan Jacobson?
07:23Yeah.
07:23Why?
07:24You know him?
07:24No, he was just checking in at reception when I got there.
07:27Oh my god.
07:28I gotta change.
07:30I will let him know that you'll be right there.
07:32Thanks.
07:33Uh huh.
07:38Wow.
07:39Wow.
07:40Wow.
07:40Wow.
07:45Performance numbers, HR guidelines, severance quotes, and stands in the waiting room.
07:49Did you sleep here last night?
07:50I wouldn't exactly call it sleeping.
07:52Where'd you get that suit?
07:53Uh, Rachel.
07:55No, I mean Jenny gave it to Rachel downstairs.
07:57She slept over last night.
07:59Jenny did, not Rachel.
08:00Do I really need to be here when you fire this guy?
08:02You want to learn how it's done, right?
08:04I read this guy's employment records, Harvey.
08:06He's smart, talented, loyal.
08:08Oh, and you feel bad for him.
08:09I'm shocked.
08:10Where's my smoking gun?
08:13The background check that confirmed Stan lied about his credentials.
08:15Yeah, it never came through.
08:18On it.
08:23Come in, come in.
08:23Hey, um, could you help me with something?
08:25I need to get this fax for Harvey and-
08:27Good morning.
08:29Good morning.
08:30He needs a-
08:30You can tell, can't you?
08:31I bet you everybody can.
08:34Ha.
08:35Ha.
08:35Tell what?
08:38You waxed your eyebrows?
08:40I was with the most beautiful woman last night.
08:42Ha.
08:43Um, she waxed your eyebrows?
08:45We did a lot of things last night, and waxing wasn't one of them, if you know what I mean.
08:51Oh, God.
08:52Uh, well, that's great.
08:53I'm here to ask-
08:54My name's Charisse, and we have so much in common.
08:56And Mike, there was like this, there was like this mmm.
08:59Mmm-mmm.
09:00You know, like, like, like, like a mmm.
09:02Like a chemical thing that would happen when our bodies would touch.
09:04Mmm.
09:04I really don't want to have this conversation with you.
09:06Well, come on.
09:07We're both guys.
09:07Right?
09:08A little locker room talk around the office.
09:09I mean, that creates a little male bonding.
09:11Yeah, that's crazy.
09:11I just heard my name.
09:12Did you hear that?
09:13Someone's calling me.
09:14I'm gonna, just one second, okay?
09:17He's probably still a virgin.
09:19Mr. Jacobson.
09:20Hi.
09:21Mike Ross, Harvey's associate.
09:22So sorry to keep you waiting.
09:23Just gonna be a couple more minutes, okay?
09:24Okay, great.
09:27Yes, I hear you.
09:28Your office couldn't find a copy.
09:30Can you tell me the name of the security firm you guys used to do the background check?
09:35Okay, great.
09:36Uh, nope, that's great.
09:37I found the number myself.
09:39Sally.
09:40Yes, this is Mike Ross from Pearson-Hardman.
09:42I'm calling regarding a background check you guys did.
09:45Uh, sure.
09:46You could refuse to cooperate, but then you would be wrong.
09:50Uh, Sally, hold on one minute.
09:52Yeah.
09:53Uh, no, Stan is going to be there in two minutes.
09:57He's in the bathroom.
09:58Okay.
10:01Sally, you there?
10:03Let's do this.
10:04Uh, I'm gonna fax you the subpoena that I'm holding in my hand right now,
10:07and you can show that to your boss, and then we...
10:12Great.
10:13Uh, let me send you my fax number now.
10:28Stan.
10:29Oh, hey.
10:30We ready?
10:31Yes.
10:31Sorry about that.
10:32No worries.
10:33I know you, by the way.
10:377611053.
10:39Your employee code.
10:41See, I remember everyone that way.
10:42Ah.
10:43Anyway, you are taking me to see Harvey.
10:45I've been dying to meet him.
10:47Why's that?
10:47His balls.
10:50His autographed ones.
10:51I'm a huge baseball fan.
10:52Oh, right.
10:53Really?
10:53Oh, yeah, yeah.
10:54No, if I wasn't an accountant, I would be a major league scout.
10:57I can tell you anything you want to know just by looking at somebody's numbers.
11:00For instance, slugging percentage versus strikeouts during spring training.
11:03Do you want to walk and talk, maybe?
11:05Ah.
11:06See, the thing is, it's usually what we call in the trade a miscorrelation.
11:10Ahem.
11:10Stan Jacobson?
11:11Mr. Spector.
11:12It is a pleasure.
11:14Stan, it's nice to meet you.
11:15As Michael would.
11:15Oh, my God.
11:17Oh, my God.
11:18Is that them?
11:19Oh.
11:21Cheater.
11:23Hank Aaron.
11:24No way.
11:26Mariffs.
11:27That's not number 61, is it?
11:28No, but it was signed by Tracy.
11:30Stellard.
11:33Big baseball fan.
11:35Stan, why don't you have a seat over here?
11:37Why don't I get her some waters and...
11:39Sorry.
11:40I get talking about baseball I cannot stop.
11:43Well, I know how valuable your time is.
11:46I do do the books.
11:48And, speaking of which, your assistant tells me you wanted to go over something from your last audit.
11:53I could really use a waters.
11:56Stan, we're not here to go over any accounting business.
11:59You're here because you're being let go.
12:02What?
12:04It's not going to feel as surprising when you understand why.
12:06The firm looked into your background recently.
12:08They know you lied about passing the CPA exam.
12:11You were hired because of your outstanding credentials.
12:14And the reality is, they never existed.
12:21I've been there for nine years.
12:23My work has been nothing but...
12:26I mean, why would this even matter now?
12:28You have been committing fraud your entire career.
12:30The liability it presents...
12:31No, I don't accept this.
12:33Take a deep breath.
12:34Once you go over the severance numbers, you'll see that we've been more than fair.
12:39Fair?
12:41You think this is fair?
12:43We understand how difficult this must be, Stan.
12:46How you must feel right now.
12:48You have no idea what I feel right now.
12:52So I'm clear, you're not denying what we're presenting you with.
12:56You mean that I lied back when Dry Pick hired me?
13:04No.
13:06But I'm not some scam artist either.
13:08I did go to college.
13:09I just...
13:11Couldn't afford to graduate.
13:11No one ever questioned it before, because I'm that good with numbers.
13:18They find out all of a sudden.
13:21They didn't.
13:25This background check is five years old.
13:28What?
13:30It doesn't make sense.
13:32Is this the original?
13:33Yeah.
13:35So Tory knew?
13:36All this time?
13:40This is the same thing that happened to Paula.
13:42Who?
13:43Paula.
13:44Discovered some undisclosed income.
13:46The books weren't adding up.
13:47She brought it to me.
13:48The next thing I know, she is gone.
13:50I asked Tory about it, then I start getting shut out of meetings.
13:53They're trying to hide something and they're firing me so they can.
13:56Where are you going?
13:57I'm not signing some agreement, are you kidding me?
13:59I'm getting railroaded.
14:01Should I go after him?
14:03No.
14:03You've done enough already.
14:11No.
14:12So you let him leave?
14:14Physically restraining someone is not in my job description.
14:17What about your associate?
14:18The one who shared the background check?
14:21That was a confidential internal document.
14:23Stan should have never seen it.
14:24Why did you even have it?
14:26You didn't expect us to fire him without proof, did you?
14:28Tory's right.
14:29Stan shouldn't have seen it.
14:31Then I'm guilty of being thorough.
14:32I still don't understand why you haven't told us the whole truth.
14:35I mean, if you knew five years ago, why'd you make it sound like this is something recent?
14:38Because it only came to my attention two days ago.
14:41Then who ordered the background check?
14:42It's routine.
14:43You check with human resources.
14:45Is it routine for human resources to keep something from the CEO for half a decade?
14:49What are you insinuating?
14:52I think what Harvey is saying is, given how quickly we tried to accomplish this, some of the details might
14:58have gotten lost.
14:59What was also lost is that Stan never signed the severance package, which included the confidentiality agreement.
15:04Which means if he decides to make waves the whole point of avoiding negative publicity...
15:08Harvey will track down Stan and make sure that he signs the severance package and the confidentiality agreement today.
15:16You have my word.
15:20Of course.
15:26I'll be in touch.
15:27I'll answer you.
15:32She's lying.
15:33She knew about Stan she's known for a long time.
15:36And that matters to us. Why?
15:37Because she's taking advantage of us.
15:39We are being manipulated into firing one of her employees and told not to ask questions.
15:44Will I have questions?
15:45And the answer?
15:46Is ten.
15:47As in ten million per year.
15:50The amount of business Dry Beck generates for this firm.
15:54Which means you have to finish what you started.
15:57Find Stan and get him to sign those documents.
16:00Oh, and as far as I'm concerned, that little associate of yours is to blame for all of this.
16:04That was an honest mistake.
16:05He knowingly revealed the client's confidential document.
16:09That is not a mistake.
16:12How many more chances are you gonna give that kid?
16:14Oh, I didn't realize we were keeping score.
16:17But if that's the case, I still think he's coming out ahead.
16:30Whatever you're doing...
16:32Stop.
16:32No, you're gonna want to see this.
16:33Paula O'Neil, the former Dry Beck employee that Stan mentioned.
16:36She filed a wrongful termination suit that mysteriously won away.
16:40Really? Let me see that.
16:44Come with me.
16:48Wait, do you think something funny is going on?
16:51You know what? Here's what I think is going on.
16:52You're sympathizing with Stan because you think he's you.
16:54That doesn't mean that you need to learn something from what just happened.
16:57Not the least of which is how anyone, no matter how valuable, can be let go.
17:01I can chalk up what happened with Stan to youthful exuberance, but Jessica can't.
17:06So if you want to work here, you better go home now because if she sees you...
17:09Wait, did she fire me?
17:10This habit of you empathizing with every client is not getting you anywhere.
17:14You want to work in this firm?
17:15You need to deal in facts, evidence, information that can hold up.
17:20That's what a real lawyer does.
17:40Stan.
17:43Did you follow me here?
17:45It doesn't take a sloot to figure out that your next step would be to see another lawyer.
17:49Boekel and Williams.
17:51You're a good firm.
17:53Not the friendliest bunch.
17:54They called you that as against lawyer-client privilege.
17:56No one's breaking any laws, okay?
17:58My assistant has a network of other assistants that tell her anything she wants to know,
18:02like when someone calls for an emergency appointment.
18:04You forgot this when you left.
18:06I said I'm not signing anything.
18:08It's nothing to sign.
18:09It's a lawsuit.
18:11You worked for Drybeck for nine years, oversaw 80 clients, filed hundreds of tax returns,
18:17and fought 27 audits.
18:18Now, in light of your recently discovered fraud, all of that can now be called into question.
18:24Therefore, you are being sued for nine years' back pay,
18:27plus any expenses incurred to mitigate the damage you've done.
18:31This is...
18:33This would bankrupt me.
18:35Or you can take what's behind door number two.
18:41It's Aberdeen.
18:43Who?
18:44Not a who, it's a what.
18:45Drybeck is doing business with him, and I think that's where the problem was.
18:48You don't get it, okay?
18:49I'm only leaving with one of these.
18:51And if it's the lawsuit, the first thing your friends upstairs are gonna ask you for is a big fat
18:55retainer.
18:56And when you tell them that Harvey Spector's the one who's suing you,
18:59you're gonna watch the color drain from their faces.
19:01Now, what would you like to do?
19:09This is not cool.
19:10You leave me in your apartment all night and say you're gonna be right back.
19:13You don't even thank me for dropping off your suit.
19:15I had a bad day, Jenny.
19:17So you couldn't call me?
19:18I almost got fired, okay?
19:21What happened?
19:23It's not worth explaining.
19:26Okay, I need to find evidence that our accounting firm is up to something,
19:30so I found this woman who filed a wrongful termination suit against them,
19:33and she referred me to her lawyer.
19:34Did you call them?
19:35Yeah, but they're this huge firm, Unger and Macy.
19:38They wouldn't take my call.
19:40Why not?
19:41There's a confidentiality clause in the settlement, for one.
19:44So?
19:45So it means that they can't share details like that.
19:49I thought all lawyers secretly shared that stuff.
19:52You're all in the same club, right?
19:56What?
19:57That's not a dumb thing to assume.
19:58No.
19:59No, no, no.
19:59That's not dumb at all.
20:02Because...
20:06Unger and Macy have almost as many Harvard grads as we do, which means...
20:09They're gonna be at the mixer tonight.
20:10And there are two things that lawyers love to do.
20:13Drink and talk.
20:17Hi.
20:18Hi.
20:19Uh...
20:19Mike Ross, class of 2011.
20:22Sorry, I don't have you on here.
20:24Do you have your ID?
20:24I can run it through the computer.
20:26Uh, my Harvard ID?
20:28Did you say your name was again?
20:30Michael Ross of Pearson Harvey.
20:34Boy, you think they ask Harvey for his ID when it comes to this place?
20:38Harvey Specter?
20:39You work with Harvey Specter?
20:42Uh, yeah.
20:43Yes.
20:44I'm his associate.
20:45I can call him if you like.
20:47Just don't tell him I gave you any trouble, okay?
20:51Welcome.
20:56Oh, God.
20:56I'm never gonna survive this.
20:58Deep breaths.
20:59You'll be fine.
21:13Hey.
21:14I saw the signed severance papers on my desk.
21:17I also left word for Tori.
21:19Yes, we spoke.
21:20She's relieved, but I wouldn't go so far as to say completely forgiving.
21:23Have you ever heard of Aberdeen Solutions?
21:26Dryback listed them as a consultant firm.
21:28They bill us every month for their management services.
21:31Okay.
21:32What does that mean?
21:33Well, check with accounting.
21:35I did.
21:35They can only tell me how much we pay them.
21:38So I called Aberdeen directly.
21:40It's an automated answering system.
21:42I left six messages, no returns.
21:45Stan mentioned it.
21:46Something just doesn't feel right.
21:49Are you saying you want to investigate our client?
21:51They're also our accountants.
21:53And Tori is also a friend.
21:56Harvey, if you got caught and didn't-
21:58I wouldn't get caught.
22:02I am explicitly telling you not to do this.
22:08Then I'll let you know what I don't find after I don't look into it.
22:27Hey, should we get the rest of the 2010 grads with us for a pick?
22:30The rest?
22:31It's 2011 only.
22:32Isn't he from the 2010 class?
22:39No, no.
22:40I was 2011.
22:42You're not with us.
22:43Yeah, Rudy.
22:44It's Mike.
22:45We hung out a bunch.
22:47Where?
22:49Oh, you know what?
22:50Maybe I'm thinking about somebody else.
22:52Sorry about that.
22:53Has anyone seen that guy here before?
22:55Would you excuse me?
22:59Hey, I'm not having any luck.
23:01Wish I could say different love, but it's been a potter's field for me too.
23:06What, you get to pretend to be someone else I wanted to try. It's fun.
23:09An accent? Hmm.
23:12Okay, I'll start.
23:14What?
23:15What?
23:15You're amazing.
23:21And that's Brian Jennings.
23:23Who's Brian Jennings?
23:24I saw his face on Unger and Macy's website today.
23:27What are you waiting for? Go.
23:35Hi.
23:37Ten days of public exposure.
23:40Next time you need a bathroom in Times Square, go into a hotel.
23:45Five-minute recess.
23:52Harvey.
23:53Long time, Anthony.
23:56You keep company with the high rollers on Center Street.
23:59What are you doing down in Night Court?
24:02You need a favor.
24:04What kind of favor?
24:06One that requires access to sealed court documents.
24:09Can't wait till tomorrow. I got this backlog.
24:11When you came to me two years ago in the middle of the night,
24:13did I tell you it had to wait till tomorrow?
24:18My chambers.
24:23So, this is quite a surprise.
24:25Who would ever think that you and I would be on a double date?
24:28Excuse me?
24:28Oh, come on. You had to notice her when you walked in the room.
24:30She's absolutely gorgeous.
24:32She's completely infatuated with your girlfriend.
24:36Uh, come on. Come on. I'll introduce you to her.
24:39Charisse. Honey.
24:41Uh, this is one of my associates, Mike Ross.
24:43Hi.
24:43So nice to meet you, and I'm in love with your date.
24:47Seriously, she's just been telling me about her work with monkeys.
24:49It's fascinating.
24:50So really, they're as smart as us?
24:53Oh, smarter.
24:55I never had a chance with him.
24:58I need to use the ladies room. Would you excuse me?
25:03Monkeys aren't smarter than humans. Sorry.
25:05Depends on which humans you're talking about, I guess.
25:08What? Huh?
25:09Name of case and rough date?
25:11Aberdeen versus Paula O'Neill say six months ago.
25:16Let's see.
25:17It says here that they were listed as a subsidiary of Dryback in a wrongful termination suit.
25:22That's it. That's what I'm looking for.
25:24I can't print this out. I'll get tagged.
25:26Come around. Take a look.
25:28Is that what you're after?
25:30Yep. That's it.
25:31But...
25:33What's that?
25:36That links to another court filing in relation to Aberdeen.
25:40Clear color.
25:42It says here that they filed for dissolution.
25:45Earlier today.
25:46The whole company?
25:47That's what it says.
25:49They're officially shut down.
25:51I'm gonna need one more favor.
25:55I think it's great that you found someone not in law who works out in the real world.
25:59Why do you say that?
26:00Because I'm stuck in a suit all day. Or an office. Or a courtroom.
26:04I think it'd be nice to be in nature. Don't you, Mike?
26:06Well, I love that you're a lawyer.
26:08In fact, I'd love to see where you work sometime.
26:13You would.
26:16I'm not feeling so well all of a sudden.
26:18No.
26:19Yeah. We can go.
26:21Yeah. Right now.
26:21Now. Yeah. So great to meet you.
26:23Lovely to meet you.
26:24Have a good night.
26:24Bye.
26:27Okay, why didn't you do that sooner?
26:30Because...
26:30You had to get this first.
26:33That's the guy, right? From the firm.
26:34That's his employee ID.
26:35He gave this to you?
26:36No, I stole it.
26:38What?
26:39Listen, you can spend all night trying to get to the guy, or you could just go into his firm
26:43yourself and look.
26:45Come on.
26:45Let's go.
26:54Yeah, I can barely keep my eyes open myself.
26:57They got me filing briefs.
26:58Sucks.
27:26You actually came.
27:28You must be...
27:30Harvey Specter?
27:32Joe, was it?
27:33Friend Fillion and the deal that's on the table?
27:36Let me just get it straight.
27:37You caught him rifling through some files in lieu of calling the police and want me to pay you off?
27:42I never said that. He did.
27:46Well, that's great. This way, if I level a charge of extortion, it's hearsay, huh?
27:50Ten years working for a law firm, you'll learn a thing or two.
27:53Which is good, because you sure as hell don't make a lot of money doing it.
27:56Somehow I think you're getting by fine.
27:57Just say I know the level you guys play at.
28:00Espionage happens all the time, which is why I know you'll do anything to protect your secrets.
28:05Well, actually, Joe Spina of 2561 Clover Lane Astoria, Queens, I think we all would.
28:11Like those tax returns you filed jointly for the last six years while no longer living with your wife.
28:16You know, the IRS can destroy you for that.
28:18You think you're the first person to try to extort me, Joe?
28:21Because that's the level I play at.
28:23Now, you're a security guard, likes to take risks. I like that.
28:28Here's what we're going to do.
28:29This here's a generous donation to Joey Jr.'s Little League team.
28:33Now, if it gets to them, it gets to them. If it doesn't, it doesn't.
28:37The next time we talk, it's going to be me who wants a favor.
28:48Officer, do I really need to pay you back?
28:50Let's start with an explanation.
28:52You said I needed to find evidence, so I went to find some.
28:55By breaking into another law firm?
28:56Is that really worse than paying off a security guard?
28:59Okay, first of all, I didn't pay him off. Second of all, if I hadn't paid him off, you'd be
29:02in jail right now.
29:04You think I might be right about Stan?
29:06No, I never said you were wrong. I said we needed evidence.
29:09But did you find something?
29:12Drivic bought a shelf company 13 months ago.
29:16What's a shelf company?
29:17It's a corporation that exists only on paper, so its owners can hide their assets.
29:23Isn't that a shell company?
29:24No, it's a shelf company. Okay, take a shelf company, give it a bank account, credit history, tax returns, and
29:30let it season for years on a shelf.
29:33Someone buys it, slots their name into it, and they walk away with an established corporation with a pre-existing
29:39history.
29:40Anyone looks any closer, just shut it down and do it again.
29:44And that's legal?
29:45Shelf companies are legal. I'm guessing what Tori's doing with hers isn't.
29:49Wait a minute, is it called Aberdeen?
29:51I saw it on the top of this list with 37 other management companies, all related to Dryvic and that
29:57wrongful termination suit.
30:00When we get back to the office, I want you to find legal precedent that will allow us to subpoena
30:04those records.
30:05Okay, on it.
30:06Do I really have to pay you back?
30:08Every penny.
30:10Wait a minute, how much was in that envelope?
30:20Hey, what are you all doing at my desk?
30:22Dude, you gotta check this out.
30:27Excuse me, excuse me.
30:32Is that Lewis?
30:33Uh huh, in the lobby.
30:34Is this a security camera? A live feed? What are you guys doing?
30:37No, no, this is from last night. The guys in security emailed it up to Lewis this morning.
30:40And why are we watching it on my computer?
30:42Well, we're not gonna risk watching it on one of ours.
30:45And everyone knows your password.
30:46How does everybody know my password?
30:48Ross, 999, how hard is that to crack?
30:51Okay, 999 increases the odds, okay.
30:53Shhh, here it comes.
30:56What?
30:58Oh!
31:02Oh, no.
31:03What did he say to her?
31:05Evidently Lewis wants a restraining order and he needs this as evidence.
31:09What?
31:12Um, it...
31:14Okay, listen, please don't.
31:16I came in here and...
31:18Look, I...
31:20Are you okay down...
31:22Lewis?
31:28If the message you left was another trick to get me down here.
31:31No tricks, I assure you. Come on in.
31:33Stan, I'm Jessica Pearson.
31:34Oh yeah, I know who you are.
31:36You said if I accepted the severance agreement there wouldn't be a lawsuit.
31:39Well, there is one.
31:41But not against you. With you.
31:44We know about Aberdeen.
31:45We know what Tori was orchestrating.
31:47And with your help, we can expose her.
31:53Why should I help you?
31:55What have you got to lose?
32:03Tell me what you need me to do.
32:09Hey.
32:12What does he have you trying to find this time?
32:14You really want to know?
32:19I managed to get a look at some files involving our accounting firm.
32:23What's up with our accounting firm?
32:25They're stealing from us.
32:28You know your phone bill?
32:29You have all those surcharges.
32:31You have no idea what they mean, but you pay them anyway.
32:33Yeah.
32:34Well, Drybeck's doing the same thing to us, except all their charges are a complete scam.
32:38Pretty sure the phone charges are a scam too.
32:40Yeah, maybe.
32:41So what do you need?
32:43I need a legal reason to get those files without saying I saw those files.
32:49You need them for court or you just need them?
32:53Why?
32:54You said you read them, right?
32:56Yeah.
32:57So then you already have them.
32:59In here.
33:01You're right. I do.
33:03Yes. So you dictate all type.
33:05What?
33:07You'd actually do that for me?
33:08They're stealing from us.
33:10Pearson Hardman's my firm too.
33:13Come on.
33:15Okay.
33:17With the party of the third part hereto referred to as Norton LLC, rendered to me...
33:22Not the subject of any litigation or any claim that might be reasonably anticipated to give rise to...
33:26...being acknowledged that such appointment is irrevocable and shall be deemed a power coupled with...
33:30...lawfully invested with the power to make such contracts or to perform acts from which it may be lawfully implied.
33:38That's it. Did we get it?
33:39Saving and... wait for it.
33:42Done.
33:43Oh.
33:50What?
33:52Your mind. It's just... it's amazing.
33:56Thanks.
33:59What?
34:00Your mind's amazing too.
34:02Oh, thank you.
34:07Who are you calling this late?
34:08Oh.
34:09She's waiting up for you?
34:11Yeah.
34:12I guess you're right. It's pretty late. She's probably sleeping by now.
34:14I'll just text her.
34:16It's tough to have a relationship with the first year.
34:19Or any year.
34:20You just don't have a life.
34:22How'd you make it work?
34:24Who said I did?
34:25It's... it's impossible to have anything long term unless you find someone that has the same 80 hour work week
34:30and then...
34:31...that doesn't work either because you're busy too.
34:34Yeah.
34:35Well, I'm not gonna let that be the reason that Jenny and I don't...
34:50What are you two still doing here?
34:52Uh, it's for Harvey.
34:54Uh, but we're done.
34:55Good night.
34:55I'll see you later.
34:56Night.
34:56Bye.
34:56Bye.
35:02I'm sure you're aware of this, but, um, I'm just gonna remind you anyway.
35:06Um, this office rounds upon relationships in the workplace.
35:12Yeah.
35:35Oh, God.
35:36Uh, I'm so sorry.
35:37It's okay.
35:40Um...
35:41Hey, uh, thank you for last night.
35:44The typing.
35:45Of course.
35:46Right.
35:46Yeah.
35:47Absolutely.
35:47It was really helpful.
35:48Mm-hmm.
35:50Uh, hold on.
35:52One second.
35:52Sorry.
35:53Hello?
35:54I said I needed you in my office.
35:56And I said...
35:56Save it.
35:58Those are the files?
35:59Yes.
35:59Take them, please.
36:00Stand is in my office.
36:01Meet us in the conference room.
36:02Okay.
36:07Sorry to keep you waiting.
36:09That's okay.
36:09I got your email with a list of other law firms.
36:12I respect your effort to make amends by referring new clients.
36:16Oh, that wasn't a list for client referrals.
36:18Those are firms you should consider for representation.
36:20We're no longer your attorneys, Tori.
36:22What?
36:23We have no choice, really.
36:24It would be impossible to represent you when we plan on suing you for every penny you've got.
36:29Is this a joke?
36:30Aberdeen Solutions.
36:32Created in June of 2006.
36:34Sold to Dryback 2010.
36:36Dissolved two days ago.
36:37Before that, it was Bolton Finances.
36:39And before that, it was Norton Services, Littleton LLC.
36:43Where did you get those?
36:43We know what you did, Tori.
36:45You couldn't have subpoenaed these files.
36:46And yet we have them.
36:48Take a look.
36:48They're all there.
36:49And now we have proof.
36:50Proof of what?
36:52Those are all legitimate corporations.
36:53Used for-
36:54Stealing money and lining your own pockets.
36:56But don't take my word for it.
36:58Guys?
37:06Hello, Tori.
37:06Yeah, we hired Stan to do a little independent consulting on our behalf.
37:10And he's come up with some very interesting connections.
37:13It was easy.
37:14Even if I don't really have a degree.
37:16There was a vacation you invited me on last year.
37:19To your new house in the Bahamas.
37:22A house you bought with money you stole from this firm.
37:25My firm.
37:27Jessica.
37:28Jessica.
37:28Jessica.
37:29What?
37:30You can't use any of this.
37:32We have attorney-client privilege.
37:34With Drybeck Accounting, yes.
37:35With the shelf companies?
37:37No.
37:38And unfortunately for you, you're listed on the shelf companies.
37:41You stole from me.
37:43You either come clean now, or the only time you'll see your children in the next decade
37:48will be during prison visiting hours.
37:55It's time to get my job back now, right?
37:57I don't see why not.
37:59No Stan, you're not.
38:02What?
38:02Drybeck's going bankrupt after this all shakes out.
38:05Even if they don't, they're not going to hire you back.
38:08Why?
38:10Because you falsified your resume.
38:16What am I supposed to do now?
38:17Well, we just got you more than your severance package.
38:19I suggest you use it to tide yourself over until you figure something out.
38:37Stan.
38:39Hey.
38:40Your best asset is your mind.
38:42They can't take that from you.
38:45A little mistake.
38:47You could go back to school, become legitimate.
38:51Start over.
38:57I never should have done it.
39:21I told you they wouldn't catch me.
39:24What are you looking for, Harvey? Positive reinforcement?
39:26Nothing major.
39:28Trophy.
39:29No bell.
39:30Would your likeness in bronze in the lobby be okay?
39:32Bust or life size.
39:35He did a good thing, Harvey.
39:37Well, it wasn't just me, you know.
39:40Well, then I guess I should give the kid the benefit at the top from now on.
39:45You should.
40:02Well, you'll be happy to know that Stan has no idea what he's gonna do with the rest of his
40:06life.
40:06That doesn't make me happy.
40:10What if I tell you I have no idea what I'm doing with mine?
40:16What the hell are we gonna do when I get caught, Harvey?
40:19You're not gonna get caught.
40:20That's your answer?
40:24What else is there?
40:30Why?
40:32You what?
40:33Fire me.
40:33Why would you do that to me?
40:36You mean for you.
40:37No, I don't.
40:38You've made it perfectly clear that you only do things for yourself, so why?
40:41You mean the reason why I became a lawyer?
40:44Or your friend dealt drugs?
40:45Or you used to cheat?
40:47I cheated because I need-
40:48You couldn't make money any other way?
40:49Bullshit.
40:51Life is this.
40:54I like this.
40:57That's not me.
40:58Well, if it wasn't me, you wouldn't be here.
41:00So if you want this to stop, all you gotta do is tap out.
41:18Hello.
41:19Hello.
41:19You're here to see Mike.
41:21We're gonna celebrate his victory.
41:23Ah.
41:26You know, I actually think that it's a really, really good idea that you've come to pick him up.
41:30In fact, if I were you, I'd do it a little more often.
41:34Just all those late nights working with Rachel.
41:37What do you mean?
41:39What do I-
41:40Well, come on.
41:41You're a smart girl.
41:43You understand animal behavior.
41:46I think you can figure it out.
41:51Hey.
41:53You ready?
41:53Yeah.
41:54Hey.
41:55Hey.
42:05Hey.
42:09Hey.
42:10Hey.
