if he got back with Sheila, it would've been the writer's intention of writing off Louis from the show. as much as i wanted to see him get back with her, Suits wouldn't be the same without Louis

true Louis lives, breathes, sleeps Pearson Specter. but he'll never be in the inner circle: harvey, donna, mike. so he'll always be left out on something. and to get your name on the door by blackmailing the firm opposed to earning it through the respect of the other partners isn't worth it in the end. has he no pride? the writers make Louis out to be a harvey ********r, like come on man, be your own man
Other characters will always have to bow down to Harvey...

Is it a law that they can only hire harvard grads? Or is it just on mike, that he was impersonating. Like what would they be punished for for hiring him?

Problem with mike is that he never went to law school at all, or even finished undergrad

i thought Louis's best option would have been to turned them in to the authorities then he'd be free to grab the companies he signed plus more and start his own law firm. Wouldn't the contract he signed be voided, if the company started to fall since they broke the law?

It's not a law that they can only hire harvard grads, it's just it's the company's prerequisite to work there. They would be punished for hiring him because in order to practice law, you'll need to pass the bar exam, and in order to take the bar exam, he would have to graduate from law school and in order for him to get into law school, he would have graduate from Undergrad. He didn't do any of those things. This show doesn't have any probability of happening in real life, though.

I think this show could have been fine if they just moved on from the "Mike's a fraud" premise and we just accepted "Deal with it, he's not getting caught" and focused on law stuff.
You'd still have the young, naive hotshot with a good heart going toe to toe with Harvey, Jessica, Louis, and against opposing lawyers. They seemed to "forget" more about Mike's skills and talents and replaced that with relationship drama or him butting heads with Jessica. I know it was more about the wish-fulfillment aspect of the show.. the "everyman who is a secret genius" but honestly that was part of the appeal when I first started watching.
I think Louis getting named partner was a solid end to an otherwise average season. I think the show has trouble figuring out how to pace out their stories and episodes. Mike vs. Harvey should have been a lot more epic, but they hit that right out of the gate, then we were left picking up the pieces for the rest of the season. Louis has been neutered for far too long.. comic relief is one thing.. but he was a better character before he was a complete joke.
Overall, I'm still on board and it's a great summer/winter show to watch when the bigger shows are on hiatus. And they still have great musical selections and I love their fascination with The Heavy.

Yeah and even with that show there were a string of episodes where Ted is telling stories that have absolutely NOTHING to do with meeting the mother
Not to mention the finale was complete trash.

Yeah, Jessica thought it was Mike but it was Katrina. She straight up said she would
Even said if she gets caught and fired it'll be fine if Louis takes her with him to Zane.

well some of the suits episodes were like that not many but few... but at least with suits the ongoing subject of the show is about a character that is ACTUALLY on the show, throughout the show... and not in the last few seasons of like what a 6/7 yr running show. But i feel what your saying. Maybe it would be nice if they had storylines driven towards other characters... or even a retrospective look into some others like katrina or louis etc... or even jessica. really the only past they have talked about is mikes of course, rachels and the little love thing between donna and harvey and jessica and old dude.Yeah and even with that show there were a string of episodes where Ted is telling stories that have absolutely NOTHING to do with meeting the motherNot to mention the finale was complete trash.

Harvey almost did similar when he wanted his name on the wall when they were gonna merge with my boy Varys. Son continually fought that the whole season. He didn't blackmail Jessica but he damn near put the whole firm in jeopardy cuz he didn't want to merge. He would've been assed out if Varys wasn't shady and the other dude banging Donna wasn't a murderer.

I assume Mike still has never actually studied every detail possible about being a Harvard graduate. He didn't learn when Louis tried to trap him about the professor not giving A+s. He thinks all it takes is fake documentation in the database. Even geniuses can be idiots. You'd think once he heard of Sheila he would've thought of a way of getting his file in that room. You would've think he been hacked the BAR or at least took the test but no he's dumb. He's pretty much doing more catch up work in covering this up than it would take than to actually go to the school. Not to mention the previous issue from last season is dangling over his head once again.Oh wow. I did not expect that. They turned this whole thing on it's head
:x
These writers might as well have Louis commit that.
And even though they brought back out the dead horse of Mike's secret to beat savagely again this time it was probably want of the freshest and best used ways due to the context and situation and pretty much makes when they teased Louis finding out before worth it given how he got tricked out of it. That performance in the end was powerful. I half expected Louis to say "Pearson. LITT. Specter"
I just hope with all this power Louis is sure to rehire KatrinaShe just too loyal.
Bunk back in this was funny and worth it. He was like a less illegal a-hole version of Forthsman with what he wanted.
Then back to Mike, the writing on the show is clear and the writing is on the wall; his bleeding heart do the right thing mentality cuz he's soft is just not worth it. It was him that convinced Donna to go see Louis to cheer him up to make those lame key jokes which prompted this whole thing in the first place. He's gonna get ******* on fast food style by Jessica all winter for the situation she's in now.
I can already envision Katrina being curious about how she and Louis got their jobs back and what he has over Jessica. I don't think he'll tell her cuz it'll be better if she finds out on her own. Then I can see Louis just being a jerk all season thinking he still has leverage (cuz once you agree to take part in the lie you're just as liable and an accessory).
Great summer finale.
I honestly thought that Louis was going to get back together with Sheila and I never expected him to go that hard, but he made a great point about Jessica overlooking Harvey's crime while kicking him to the curb. I think what Harvey did is arguably worse because he sort of put the whole firm in jeopardy, while Louis just put himself in jeopardy of going to jail. Either way, I'm glad to see that he is going to get his one way or another.
Jessica is a fool for letting it all happen and even worse not giving Louis just one client so that he could walk away with his dignity. For someone who is supposed to be so powerful and wise, you would think that she would do a better job of keeping her subordinates in check. Instead, she is constantly getting undermined or manipulated by Harvey, Mike, Louis, and Rachel. Hell even Rachel manipulated the all powerful Jessica into paying for law school and giving her a job despite the fact that she isn't going to Harvard.
Anyway does anyone else think that Mike is inconsistent at times? I mean for someone who does his homework all the time, it seems so stupid for him to have over looked the whole Order of the Coif/key thing. I would think that if someone as smart as he is was going to commit fraud, they would at least cover all their bases and research everything they're pretending to be.

Just when Pearson finally loosens up about Mike being back, this **** hits the fan. LOL
I love the ending though. Litt coming back and shows the fire that we all know is there. The scene with Pearson, so much emotion.

They keep him in the dark for a perfectly good reason and lets not act like he's gonna go inform the other lawyers at the firm now
The Katrina dynamic will be interesting she can't keep her mouth shut but she won't stop trying to find out what up.
I'm guessing he's not gonna find out that Rachel knows. She might play dumb or someone will say don't tell her.

if you saw the earlier episides he did go and then he was kicked out for selling mid terms math test... then when the next semester came and he tried to sign up for classes he was called into the deans office and they question his perfect score as well as others, including his boys to which ole dude had dimed mike out and they were kicked out and mike had to move off campus and into the apt with his homeboy who was dating jenny.

regarding the whole college thing, he was in another undergrad school and got an acceptance to harvard. Never went because of the selling answers to test etc. He got kicked out and does not have a bachelor's let alone a law degree and that's the problem. I kind of lost track on what you guys are arguing about but even if he went to some crap law school, he wouldnt be a liability to the firm. It might make other employees feel some type of way but i doubt jessica would want him gone since he would be legit
nah he wasnt in college the first episode, there was a flashback episode to him in college but the show started with him taking the lsats for some random dude and he was already living with trevor

Yes, Mike went to college.....where he was kicked out for selling answers. You are not incorrect about that. What you ARE incorrect about is saying he went to law school. And to piggyback off of @Jamie Dimon's post, Mike was absolutely NOT in college in the first episode.
Once again, MIKE NEVER WENT TO LAW SCHOOL.
You can post as many links as you would like. Does not make you correct.
