Should I start live-watching and live-posting or are the first 13 minutes absolutely plot critical.

Its still weird that they have Gabriel Macht's dad on the show seeing as they have almost exactly the same voice.

Someone should have sat the director of that episode down and explained that they can't have that shot because it looks like garbage.

Haha, yeah that stuck out to me too. Is it really cheaper to do that than to find a random rooftop in New York that'll let you shoot there? Or are they filming in vancouver or something and that isn't practical? They have so many dang location shots at restaurants and different courtrooms, etc., that you'd think they could find a halfway decent roof.

That kind of shot would have been really impractical to do actually on a rooftop. It's such an unnecessary shot too. We don't really need an establishing shot to show they're on the roof, we already know Jessica and Harvey go up on the roof for serious talks.

Harvey looked like he was redhead in that scene, I'm assuming because of the tweaking they had to do to get the green-screening right. Or wrong, in this case.

New episode tonight: "Fork in the Road" aka another flashback episode! Harvey and Louis travel to see a client to whom they have deep ties and Harvey takes advantage of the issue to force Louis and Mike to confront their trust issues.

So it looks like it's back to the status quo: everyone's friends again (until they're not), Louis does exactly everything that Harvey wants as long as he can have his crumbs (what was even the point of making him name partner?), and Mike's future at the firm is safe (until someone else inevitably doesn't remember him from Harvard).

This episode clearly built the foundation for the coming Specter/Litt v Pearson fight. Important scenes were Rachel/Jessica at the end, establishing that Rachel will be at least partially loyal to Jessica, Harvey/Jessica establishing that Harvey places honor over the good for the firm, Luis/Harvey in the restaurant, hinting at the idea of them working together to get something from Jessica (and Hartman). With respect to status quo: They can't resolve the Mike situation because he is a main character (arguably THE main character) of the show and his situation is unsolvable without him exiting the firm/show.

I personally felt like the episode established that Louis is an intrinsically untrustworthy person, who might seem like he's looking out for you but is actually just looking out for himself. Which is actually something we already knew, but now we know it was also true whatever-many years ago that flashback took place. Also, my money is on Robert Zane being this latter half's villain, which is why they bring up the point of Rachel being his daughter and Jessica "totally not hiring you because of your dad".

Hardman is still  Ur Getting Fatter posted:I personally felt like the episode established that Louis is an intrinsically untrustworthy person, who might seem like he's looking out for you but is actually just looking out for himself. As if Louis didn't do what Harvey would've done if the tables were flipped. Fair and square my rear end. Louis wanted to team up and Harvey was the first one to jump ship and then after he stabs Louis in the back he's like "yo bro I'll make you partner once I'm partner ok!" Too bad he didn't have that conversation a week before. Anyway I agree that this is all leading to Jessica's downfall. PaganGoatPants fucked around with this message at 16:12 on Feb 14, 2015 |

It's 2015 and he's registered as legit in the database, if it weren't for plot contrivance no one would ever know. He was added to the Harvard law school database, but has neither a high-school diploma nor a college degree, both would be required before he even can start in Harvard. Additionally no one in Harvard knows him nor does he know them, which is a problem if you work for the firm "that only recruits from Harvard" and seems to be one of the more high profile NY law firms. They Harvey pointed out to him last season that he could move somewhere else and no one would ever find out about his secret but in the "high stakes" world of Spector, Pearson, Litt he is always in danger to get exposed. Ur Getting Fatter posted:I personally felt like the episode established that Louis is an intrinsically untrustworthy person, who might seem like he's looking out for you but is actually just looking out for himself. There are only 3 episodes left in the season. My guess is that they will have a rather minor threat to the firm coming up to solidify the new Troika at the head of the firm. Preview spoiler I could see Harvey and Louis being far more attached to Donna as a person than Jessica, leading to a rift in the firm that will be explored in the next season. Zane could act as Jessica's ally (some kind of merger again) in the fight.

You need a college degree to get into Harvard? How did the creator of Facebook do it? I want to say he was in his early twenties at Harvard. So not enough time to have a degree from elsewhere?

Edit: beaten Ernie. posted:As for the people that think Jessica is going out, do you really think Mr. Loyalty Specter is going to backstab her? They are investing a lot of scenes into the "rift" between Jessica and Harvey. If Harvey gets to the point where he has to decide between Jessica and Donna (or Mike) he would backstab Jessica in a heartbeat.

Haven't seen the latest episode but I'm guessing Jeff Malone will erupt and put the nail in Jessica's coffin after he figures out how deceptive she's been to him.

GaussianCopula posted:They are investing a lot of scenes into the "rift" between Jessica and Harvey. If Harvey gets to the point where he has to decide between Jessica and Donna (or Mike) he would backstab Jessica in a heartbeat. What scenes are those? The one where Donna, 6 years ago, tells her she doesn't have Harvey's back? Well that's because earlier in the episode Jessica was badgering Hardman about their financial report. I thought the whole point of that sequence between Jessica and Donna is that we understand how patient Jessica was. Also, this latest episode started with Jessica telling Harvey to make it up with Louis, which he did. If the producers wanted to introduce a rift there, he could have argued it for the first 10 minutes of the episode or something. edit: I've proven oblivious before to things shows try to hammer home, so I'm open to being wrong, but it just feels like I might be right this time? Peta posted:Haven't seen the latest episode but I'm guessing Jeff Malone will erupt and put the nail in Jessica's coffin after he figures out how deceptive she's been to him. This is likely, but I still don't see a way for Harvey, as he is characterized right now, to actually let Jessica take the fall. Christ, we had a whole episode about him defending his chauffeur.

I think it's possible given the right circumstances that he could see her as a selfish/megalomaniacal detriment to the firm; in this case loyalty to the firm trumps loyalty to Jessica because plot.
