Louis/Sheila were the best thing about this episode. All their scenes were great and the final one was so, so sad. I really hope they work out their stuff after this thing is over.
Jessica and Jack had good scenes too. It was good to see Jessica being all badass and fierce. 👏 Although I do wish people would stop this name partner thing. Pearson Specter Litt Soloff Ross Zane Paulsen Scott Sazs blahblah. That's what the name will become by the end of the series.-_-
I won't go so far as to say that Harvey and Mike deserve all this hit and the others don't, though. Yes, they started it. But the rest of them went along with it. Donna and Rachel did out of loyalty/love, so it may be unfair on them, but Louis and Jessica used Mike's secret for their own selfish purposes so it's hardly fair to say that this whole thing is Mike/Harvey's fault.
Yes they're all being short-tempered right now and snapping at each other, but I don't find that very worrying because I think they all know that with the way things are going, everyone's stresses and no one really means any of what they say when they're fighting each other.
I agree Rachel wasn't that annoying but it's hardly a compliment -- that she had a reason to be crying today is fine, but I NEED to see Rachel do some lawyering, being her own person, being SMART.
Mike/Harvey -- this is probably the lead up to the mock trial. I don't want them to fight each other, but I kinda agree with both of them here. Harvey was being annoying about Scottie. Mike didn't know ANYTHING about why/how he and Scottie had broken up, and he had NO IDEA about their future interactions at all. He went to her for help and Harvey made it a huge thing.
Harvey/Scottie - ANNOYING. And I'm not just speaking as a Darvey fan here. I read in an IV recently how all the actors felt there was something about wrong about the season finale script and MM and GM were the most vocal about it. Writing as you go w/o having any plan beforehand is fine as long as you don't mess with the characters. But if ALL the actors can see there's something wrong with the script and the main writer/creator can't -- it's worrying. (And Rachel has been ruined enough as it is). It's almost like he hasn't decided who he wants Harvey to end up with, so he throws in some Darvey feels in one episode and some Harvey/Scottie feels in another. PLEASE STOP that Korsh. Decide. I'll be fine if you choose to end with Harvey/Scottie as well, as long as you make it believable (and make sure Donna finds someone else the audience can root for). But don't ruin whatever you've developed so far. I mean, what was that about Harvey going to therapy and making it sound like he went for Scottie?! I remember Jessica saying that Scottie leaving him didn't affect him as much as Donna leaving him did. So what exactly was this?!
I liked Scottie earlier. Before they turned her into another Rachel. Please don't ruin the characters.
The only Scottie scene I liked was Rachel/Scottie by the elevators. That scene was nice and something to think about. I agreed with Rachel at first because Mike HAD planned on leaving the firm anyway. But then I remembered his Investment Banking stint and how he didn't last long there and came back to PSL. Of course, the circumstances were different, and I still think Rachel is right here, but there's a possibility that Scottie may turn out to be right. If she is that'll lead to more Mike/Rachel drama in S6 I guess. :/
Ooh and Trevor the Annoying will be coming again. :(
BTW, did anyone catch the new promo?
Edit - Also liked how Louis said that the one thing he learned from the Mike Ross thing was that not every great lawyer went to Harvard. :) It made me happy.😳 Louis did have some good scenes this episode.
