Times When We Had to Say Goodbye | Suits

0:00 Harvey's not here, he should be back soon.

0:02 I'm not here to see Harvey.

0:05 Oh.

0:06 He wanted to be the one to have this conversation with you.

0:10 But it's my firm.

0:12 And I wanted you to hear it from me.

0:14 Am I being fired?

0:16 Yes.

0:19 I appreciate everything that you've done for Harvey and for me.

0:23 But whatever my personal feelings,

0:26 your actions have left me no choice

0:29 but to terminate your employment at Pearson Hardman effective immediately.

1:11 [singing and music] [music] [singing and music] You said he was going to fix it.

1:41 I thought he would.

2:18 Hey.

2:21 Hey.

2:23 You want a drink?

2:26 You do it on Mad Men, right?

2:34 Jessica and I are going to let you out if you don't compete.

2:40 What about the buyout?

2:42 We'll take care of the buyout.

2:46 Harvey, I uh Mike Ross never went to law school.

2:50 I knew it and I hired him anyway.

2:55 Why are you telling me now?

2:58 Because you accused [music] Jessica of being Edward Darby.

3:03 Wasn't her.

3:06 It was me.

3:17 I still can't stay, Harvey.

3:21 I know.

3:29 I just want to stop lying to the people I love.

3:38 I'm sorry.

3:55 I told her.

3:57 I know.

3:59 She won't tell anyone.

4:01 I know.

4:04 She's leaving.

4:08 I know.

4:12 Harvey, you're a good man.

4:17 Am I?

4:19 Turned Quelling into the bar.

4:21 I took my rage out on him.

4:24 He didn't deserve it.

4:27 Which is why I stopped it.

4:30 What are you talking about?

4:32 Do you seriously think that Stephanie Liston is

4:34 the only person who owes me a favor?

4:39 Well, that doesn't make me a good man.

4:40 That makes you a good man for me.

4:44 Harvey, sometimes we need a little help.

4:56 Big day.

5:01 Horrible day.

5:04 It ended well.

5:07 Thank you.

5:09 You and Louis really came through.

5:11 So did you.

5:17 Look, I know what you're thinking.

5:18 No, you don't.

5:19 You don't want to go to jail.

5:20 Harvey.

5:25 I sat in that room today and listened to you

5:28 tell me that ever since the day we met,

5:31 you've had to cross one line after another and Mike.

5:34 No, just Let me finish.

5:39 First it was Clifford Danner.

5:42 Then the witnesses.

5:44 Then suborning perjury,

5:45 not to mention the 17 things we did to stop the merger in the first place.

5:51 All of it since you hired me.

5:54 That's not what I said.

5:56 Yes, it is.

5:58 I wasn't blaming you for those things.

6:00 Doesn't matter.

6:04 I'm tired of putting the people I care about in jeopardy.

6:12 I called Jonathan Sidwell this afternoon.

6:17 I took the [music] job.

6:20 We just got out.

6:23 Harvey.

6:26 You gave me permission to point a finger at you.

6:34 Give me permission to go.

6:40 [singing and music] You're a good man, Harvey.

6:57 Thanks.

7:06 Hey.

7:07 When's your last day?

7:09 I don't know.

7:09 Why?

7:10 I want to take you out to dinner, you know, I'm not going to see you anymore.

7:14 I don't think you realize, but I'm not exactly leaving.

7:20 Sidwell, you're a client, which means technically you work for [music] me now.

7:25 No, I don't.

7:26 No, I don't, boss.

7:28 Don't even try.

7:29 Or sir.

7:29 Whatever feels least comfortable.

7:31 You know, since I'm working alone now, I guess that makes me Superman.

7:35 Or Aquaman.

7:36 Seeing as you're in over your head.

7:46 Please.

7:48 I'll try.

7:57 Donna told me [music] she already said this to you,

7:59 but I want you to hear it from me.

8:02 I wouldn't [music] be back here if it wasn't for Louis.

8:07 I'll take care of it.

8:17 [music] Woodall's taken care of and so is everything else.

8:19 Not everything.

8:21 Jessica.

8:21 Harvey, I've already made up my mind.

8:24 You weren't there.

8:26 He helped get us out of this.

8:27 After he put us goddamn in it.

8:29 And I put us in it just as much the day I hired Mike Ross.

8:33 Are you looking to save Louis or to get yourself fired, too?

8:36 I'm saying he did some bad but so have I and so have you.

8:41 You and I don't mess up.

8:43 We fix it.

8:44 Which is what he did today.

8:46 You want to talk about what he did?

8:48 I told him not to confess and he went straight down to the SEC

8:51 and he sang like a canary after he did the same thing with Jeff Malone.

8:55 That doesn't Doesn't what?

8:57 That's just the tip of the iceberg.

8:59 Let's talk about his greatest hits.

9:02 Last year, he blew up our merger negotiations because of a cat.

9:07 This year, he led Mike Ross straight to Charles Forstman.

9:11 He unwound the Wexler shares after I specifically told

9:13 him not to and to top it all off, he took a million dollar payout to commit tax

9:18 fraud that could have landed you 10 years in jail

9:22 and he didn't tell us about that until it was

9:23 too late and he only did that because he had to.

9:26 I'm still not doing that.

9:28 I tell him to do something and he never goddamn does it.

9:33 Now, I told myself I'm going to do something and I'm going to goddamn do it.

9:43 Let me do it.

9:49 Why you and not me?

9:51 Because you want to deliver the message his services are no longer needed.

9:56 And I want to tell goodbye.

9:59 You're really going to do this?

10:15 Harvey, this place is all he has.

10:18 I know.

10:22 I'm coming with you.

10:33 Dear Harvey and Jessica, there comes a time when a man must look at himself

10:38 in the mirror to judge himself instead of waiting to be judged by others.

10:43 And for me, that time is now.

10:47 You both know I came to Pearson Specter right out of law school,

10:49 but what you may not know is this is the only place I've ever worked.

10:55 It's the only place I've ever wanted to work.

10:59 It is my life.

11:02 It is my home.

11:04 And the people that work here are my family.

11:08 You're like my parents.

11:10 And the partners, they're like my brothers

11:12 and the associates under my care are like my children.

11:15 And I'm ashamed to admit it,

11:16 but I put all of you in jeopardy for my own [music] personal gain.

11:21 I told myself it was for the greater good,

11:23 but the truth is I [music] I just wanted

11:24 to feel on the same level as both of you.

11:26 I I can deny that no longer.

11:30 I can excuse my actions no longer.

11:33 Although we've had our differences over the years,

11:35 there are no two people I respect more.

11:39 Your names are on the wall for a reason and mine is not for a reason.

11:45 And I refuse to put either one of you through the pain of having to fire me.

11:50 So, effective immediately, I, Louis Litt, am resigning from Pearson Specter.

11:58 Please take care of my home.

12:06 Jessica.

12:07 Katrina.

12:08 Is this about I can either fire you or you can resign.

12:14 The choice is yours.

12:17 You know I know.

12:21 [music] Why are you being so nice about it?

12:24 Because letting you go isn't enough.

12:26 And you also don't want to antagonize me since I'll be working for Robert Zane.

12:31 You haven't heard?

12:34 We got VersaLife back.

12:38 Louis won't be going to Zane.

12:40 And neither will you.

12:45 I wish you luck.

12:48 You'll have my letter of resignation on your desk in the morning.

12:56 [music and singing] [singing and music] [singing and music] What's that?

13:28 You know what it is.

13:34 Jeff.

13:34 Jessica, you were right.

13:37 We either need to have both or it's not going to work.

13:41 And you don't want both.

13:44 Effective immediately, I'm tendering my resignation.

13:51 And I wish you luck.

13:54 Good luck, Jessica.

14:08 [music] What is that?

14:25 A cup of tea?

14:27 Just a moment of quiet reflection.

14:30 Well, the hell with that.

14:31 This is a moment for celebration.

14:32 That's right.

14:34 Because a man's life wasn't the only thing safe today.

14:36 Don't tell me you managed to lock down Jim Reynolds after all.

14:40 We did.

14:42 The firm is safe, Jessica.

14:45 Thank you.

14:52 But it's not my firm anymore.

14:58 It's yours.

14:59 What do you mean ours?

15:00 I mean I've decided to step down.

15:03 What?

15:03 Jessica Listen, somewhere along the way I forgot why I became a lawyer

15:07 in the first place and it wasn't just to fight for money and power.

15:11 It was to fight for something more.

15:13 You're not fighting for something more.

15:14 You're running away.

15:15 Louis No, we bust our asses to save this goddamn place.

15:17 She decides to up and leave.

15:19 We committed to this.

15:20 Louis, she isn't doing this to you.

15:21 She's doing it for herself.

15:23 give a why she's doing it.

15:25 It's selfish and self-serving and it's not going to happen.

15:28 Do you think I want to goddamn do this, Louis?

15:31 I have to do this.

15:32 You can't just throw this all away after we gave everything to save it.

15:35 That's enough.

15:38 Louis, after the partners left,

15:39 we swore we were going to dedicate every ounce of blood,

15:41 sweat, and tears we had to this place.

15:45 But we didn't.

15:47 Harvey and I focused on getting Mike out.

15:49 Jessica and Rachel focused on Leonard Bailey

15:52 and you focused on finding love in your life.

15:57 That's not true.

15:58 Yes, it is.

16:04 I'm not going to give up the firm.

16:06 No one's [music] saying you have to give up the firm, Louis.

16:11 You just have to let me go.

16:17 You sure about this?

16:20 To tell you the truth, for the first time in my life,

16:25 I'm not sure [music] about anything and it scares the out of me.

16:30 But I'm sure I have to do this.

16:37 To Pearson Specter Litt.

16:45 To Pearson Specter Litt.

16:54 [music] [music] Cheers.

17:06 I got to say, Mike, those were some beautiful vows.

17:08 Especially the part about family.

17:10 Thanks, Harvey.

17:11 And I didn't get to say it before, but I'm really glad you made it.

17:16 Me, too.

17:17 But I should be the one who's saying thank you.

17:20 You saved the firm.

17:22 Harvey, and before you say anything, let me just say I was wrong.

17:26 You're senior partner material.

17:28 You are ready.

17:29 And when you come back from your honeymoon We're not coming back, Harvey.

17:33 Rachel and I were offered a chance to run a firm in Seattle.

17:38 It's a It's a place that only takes class action cases against

17:41 Fortune 500 companies and and we decided to go [music] for it.

17:48 Mike Harvey, when Donna came to me, told me the firm was in trouble,

17:52 I did exactly what I told you I would,

17:54 but I don't ever want to have to make a choice [music] like that again.

17:57 You don't have to.

17:58 If you want to do more pro bono cases That's not the point,

18:00 Harvey, and you know it.

18:02 This is who I [music] am.

18:05 It's who I've always been.

18:07 It's time, Harvey.

18:10 It's time.

18:26 Ryan How are you this bright morning?

18:29 I'm okay, Katrina, but there's something I have to tell you.

18:33 By all means, go right ahead.

18:35 Last night I was having dinner with Julie and I started telling

18:39 her about us and the case and what we did for Bespoke.

18:43 Where are you going with this?

18:45 The whole time I was talking, I wasn't talking about the case or the client.

18:49 I was talking about you.

18:51 And Julie said you sound so great, we should have you over for dinner.

18:55 And then she saw a look on my face.

18:58 Ryan She asked if anything had ever happened between us and I said no.

19:05 And nothing ever will.

19:06 But even if it doesn't, I can't feel this way about someone who isn't Julie.

19:10 Ryan, what are you saying?

19:12 I can't work here anymore.

19:15 What?

19:17 No, you can't.

19:19 to.

19:19 Then I'll go to Louis right now and you can be someone else's associate.

19:24 Stop.

19:27 Ryan, please don't [music] do this.

19:28 It's going to be okay.

19:32 I promise.

19:34 No, it's not.

19:43 But I respect your decision.

19:49 Goodbye, Katrina.

20:03 How could you do it?

20:04 Samantha, You've been working your whole life for this.

20:06 How could you just throw it away?

20:07 I didn't throw it away.

20:08 That's what I need you to understand.

20:10 Well, I don't understand it.

20:12 How could you take the fall for something you didn't do?

20:14 How could you do that to me?

20:16 Cuz I did something else and I can't live with it anymore.

20:18 What are you talking about?

20:20 That man that attacked you, the one that we put away.

20:24 That's why you did this?

20:26 Robert, he got what he deserved.

20:30 killed, Samantha, murdered in his own cell.

20:33 And it's my fault.

20:36 Now, he may have been a piece of but he was someone's

20:38 son and he wouldn't have been in there if it weren't for me.

20:42 Why didn't you tell me?

20:43 Because it wasn't your burden to bear.

20:45 But I am telling you now because I need you to understand.

20:52 This is redemption for me.

20:56 What am I going to do without you?

20:58 You've got your name on the wall.

20:59 You don't need me anymore.

21:02 [sighs and snorts] The truth is, you haven't needed me for a long time.

21:17 I don't want to be alone.

21:19 You're not going to be alone here.

21:22 You've got Louis and Donna and Alex.

21:26 It's not the same, Robert.

21:27 Oh, you want to talk the same?

21:29 I've seen you and Harvey together.

21:31 You're peas in a pod.

21:34 [snorts] Go to him.

21:35 Seek him out.

21:38 And who knows, over time you might even Might even what?

21:48 Nothing.

21:53 Come over here and give an old man a hug.

22:09 You looking for him, too?

22:14 I went to call Donna after the hearing.

22:17 She didn't answer, but when I came back, you guys were gone.

22:21 Wasn't really a reason to stay.

22:25 Alex, if you'd have told me you were going to do that.

22:28 That's why Robert wouldn't let me tell you.

22:32 I know I need to thank him.

22:34 But you need to know why.

22:35 Yeah.

22:37 I do.

22:37 Because Harvey, sometimes people are carrying around a burden they

22:40 need to put down that has nothing to do with you.

22:44 What burden?

22:45 None of your goddamn business.

22:47 Stop moping around my office.

22:49 I'm retired.

22:50 I'm not dead.

22:53 Harvey, I knew what I was doing.

22:57 I'm good with it.

23:00 Well, then if it's all right with you,

23:02 what do you say to celebrate your retirement

23:04 I finally take you out for that burger?

23:08 You got it.

23:10 But not tonight.

23:11 Something like this happens, makes you know what's really important.

23:16 And for me, it's Laura.

23:22 [music] Hey.

23:23 You sure you don't want to tell me what that burden was?

23:26 Isn't it enough I saved your sorry ass?

23:29 And by the way, most people get a gold watch.

23:32 I get a goddamn burger.

23:37 Why you got to push it?

23:39 Now we got to get him a watch.

23:41 Hey.

23:43 You want to get a burger?

23:43 [music] Sorry, Harvey.

23:47 Robert's right.

23:49 I need to get home to [music] the woman I love.

24:01 It's time, Harvey.

24:04 You ready to go?

24:05 You go ahead without me.

24:07 They're packing up the place tomorrow and I

24:10 need a little more time before they do.

24:12 I understand.

24:14 See you at home.

24:17 Hey.

24:20 You know I couldn't have done any of this without you.

24:23 Any of what?

24:25 Everything.

24:49 [music] [music] [singing] Whoa.

25:31 You give me this and I will become the best lawyer you have ever seen.

25:34 You start behind the eight ball, you'll never get in front.

25:37 Some people love the taste of blood.

25:39 Better to find out who you are sooner than later.

25:41 Salieri?

25:42 Mozart.

25:43 Are you wearing braces?

25:44 [music] Let me guess.

25:45 You're Donna.

25:46 Oh.

25:47 You have no idea how Donna I am.

25:50 Baby, Butch and Sundance are back.

25:52 Anyone comes at you with any threat [music] at all, you come to me.

25:54 You tell me.

25:55 You tell me everything.

25:57 I'm a fraud.

26:01 We're not just colleagues [music] or even friends.

26:03 We're family.

26:08 To Pearson Specter Litt.

26:12 Life is like this.

26:14 And I like [music] this.

26:19 [singing] [music] [music] [music] [music] [music] [music] [music] [music] Hey.
