1
I'm sorry, Harvey.
2
You set me up.
3
No, Lewis, you set yourself up.
4
The sales offer was meaningless until you read it.
5
This is cheating.
6
You cheated, Lewis.
7
You broke the rules, and you have to pay the price.
8
People may think that lawyers will do anything, that they can do anything.
9
Now, I'm not willing to accept that, okay?
10
You can't go skirting the rules and justify it because you think someone else broke the rules, okay?
11
You cheated, and you lost!
12
End of story.
13
Harvey, I won.
14
His play acting by the fax machine, that was so obvious.
15
I found out Kelsey owned United International.
16
I thought if they wanted the paper so badly, how much would they overpay for it?
17
50%.
18
Harvey, you overpaid 50% for a business so buried in expenses from the employee deals that I made.
19
You could barely stay afloat.
20
And then all I had to do was convince Madison to sit back, have fun, watch her sister fail miserably.
21
I won.
22
Your client got what she wanted.
23
So did ours.
24
Jessica asked to make everyone happy, everyone's happy.
25
It's a draw.
26
Just hold on a second.
27
You tell me the truth right now.
28
This will win to you?
29
Fine, Louis.
30
You win.
31
You were a step ahead, you got Mike.
32
Ten days.
33
You think I want him now?
34
I just wait the floor with him.
35
Sign this affidavit that we never received that memo from Coastal Motors.
36
Oh, my God.
37
Oh, I'm...
38
There are napkins over there.
39
I knew he wasn't a lawyer.
40
I didn't think he was an idiot.
41
I knew he was an idiot.
42
I didn't know he was spastic.
43
I'm sorry, guys.
44
When you get this cleaned up, come see me.
45
I'll get you a fresh one.
46
What the hell was that?
47
What?
48
You know what?
49
It was an accident.
50
It was intentional.
51
You ambushed me with a cup of coffee.
52
Think I haven't seen Ronan?
53
It was all I could think of.
54
Meaning?
55
Donna was supposed to tell you.
56
Tell me what?
57
You can't sign the affidavit.
58
You'll be committing perjury.
59
What the hell were you thinking?
60
I didn't know how to tell you.
61
Harvey, I found the memo.
62
Is that so goddamn hard?
63
You don't understand.
64
It had my name on it.
65
I stamped it in.
66
That implicates you.
67
Did you keep it from me four years ago?
68
I don't even remember seeing it four years ago.
69
Then I don't give a what it implicates.
70
You don't keep it from me now.
71
I had never made a mistake like that, and I thought that I needed to.
72
Look, keeping it from me isn't a mistake.
73
It's a decision.
74
I wanted to protect you.
75
Lying to me doesn't protect me.
76
It betrays me.
77
Betrays you?
78
If I had told you the truth, that you don't.
79
You don't keep things from me!
80
You keep things from me all the time!
81
That's because I'm your boss!
82
Well, maybe you shouldn't be my boss anymore!
83
I did what I thought I had to do for you, and if you can't...
84
just fire me.
85
Let me explain something to you.
86
That memo doesn't hurt me, it helps me.
87
If I had buried it, we wouldn't have it.
88
But you found it, so that's a good thing.
89
What?
90
What would you do?
91
Oh, what did you do?
92
Alison had that friggin' camera and I was...
93
She implied that we were...
94
What did you do?
95
Let's go.
96
You destroyed it?
97
I'm not gonna fire you, Donna.
98
I might kill you, but I'm not gonna fire you.
99
What are you gonna do?
100
What you should have done from day one.
101
So you did have the document from Coastal Motors?
102
Objection.
103
Harvey, you're the defendant.
104
I wasn't objecting to his question, just his tie.
105
I do have to look at it, you know.
106
It's fun, isn't it, Harv?
107
Hanging out, catching up, learning about your fraud.
108
I hate to burst your bubble, Trav, but there was no fraud.
109
There was no fraud?
110
What you just said, you had the document.
111
Yes.
112
We went back through the case files, found the report.
113
Whoops.
114
That's it.
115
Whoops.
116
I hope you got that.
117
Whoops?
118
Your defense is whoops?
119
All right, you've made your point.
120
You made us a settlement offer that we would never take.
121
Let's talk about one that we would.
122
This is a deposition, not a settlement meeting.
123
Every meeting is a settlement meeting.
124
Fine.
125
The offer was $5 million, and Harvey gets disbarred.
126
How about $100 million? And Harvey gets disbarred.
127
Tanner, you want to take this to court, go right ahead.
128
I'd rather watch her cut you down than see her cut a deal anyway.
129
You know, I see why hairdo wants to roll the dice, but why you?
130
You just went from $5 million to $100 million, and you're questioning why I don't want to sell.
131
If that's the sticking point, I might be able to go to $0 million.
132
But the one thing I won't budge on is he gets disbarred.
133
Hey, I'm doing you a favor.
134
I mean, what does he, cause a headache like this once, twice a month?
135
Doesn't matter, because he cures more than he makes, like when you stuck your nose into my case last year, and he beat you.
136
Crushed him.
137
Then he took his ball and went home.
138
Should've stayed there.
139
Look at that, finishing each other's sentences.
140
How cute.
141
No wonder you won't throw him under the bus.
142
Good for you, Harvey.
143
I mean, you're, uh, throwing her under the bus.
144
Watch yourself, Tanner.
145
Oh, what's the matter, Harv?
146
Did I offend your delicate sensibilities?
147
You want to take your ball and go home?
148
I'm gonna take my ball and shove it here.
149
Harvey. Of course.
150
Your coiffed hair.
151
Your pretty nails.
152
See, she's the man, and you're the girl.
153
You know, it's funny.
154
I would have thought she'd prefer someone like...
155
This deposition is over.
156
Oh, what, is Mommy gonna take you home now?
157
Wait.
158
That's it.
159
You got a thing for Mommy.
160
And now it all makes sense.
161
Because I actually looked into your Mommy.
162
And it turns out that the whole time you were home with Daddy, Mommy was out banging.
163
Point, Tanner, I'll see you and Cora and Harb.
164
Alice, it's not done.
165
We know.
166
We're working all the clients.
167
No, it's more than that.
168
She's taking McKinney and Klein.
169
It's just two more associates.
170
No, it's more than that.
171
I tell you the rats are jumping ship and you say it's fine, but Donna nods and you're busting out life jackets?
172
You have a history of panicking.
173
He's not panicking.
174
Clark, Owens, McKinney, Klein, these aren't just fifth years.
175
They're the best fifth years.
176
They're Lewis's first class of associates.
177
He gave her a report card?
178
Harvey, you do not know that.
179
Well, I'm gonna goddamn find out.
180
Cut it out.
181
All right, I'll talk to you later.
182
Bye.
183
I never liked you, Lewis.
184
You're a vindictive, sniveling rat, but I never thought you'd betray your own firm.
185
I've never betrayed this firm.
186
What do you call helping Allison Holt poach our associates?
187
I had nothing to do with that.
188
I love this firm, Harvey.
189
You were a traitor when you voted for Hartman, and you're a traitor now.
190
Like I've told you before, I'm not the only one in this firm who voted for Hartman, and I voted to oust him once I knew.
191
Once you knew, you had to save your own ass.
192
You know what, Harvey?
193
Just get out.
194
Get out.
195
I did nothing wrong.
196
Jesus.
197
You bugged my office.
198
You ran to Hardman about the CM lawsuit.
199
You sold your soul for senior partnership.
200
And once you got it, you created a drug policy with the sole purpose of firing me.
201
I did it for Hardman.
202
Maybe Hardman wanted me dead.
203
But you're the one who went out, got the gun, aimed it, and fired it at my head.
204
And it blew up in my face.
205
And what would have happened if it didn't?
206
I was under orders.
207
Were you also under orders when you ran to Hartman about Monica Eaton?
208
How did you know it was me?
209
Because I set it up!
210
Because I know who you are!
211
Are you still gonna tell me you're not helping Allison?
212
Harvey, I swear to God I did not do this.
213
Maybe not.
214
But now that you've done what you've done, I will never trust you.
215
Pearson Hardman is my life.
216
Well, here's what's gonna happen from now on.
217
You and I.. we're done.
218
Don't drop by my office.
219
Don't ask Donna for information.
220
You're the guy that nobody wants, but we can't get rid of. But I'm senior partner.
221
So I can't make you leave.
222
But as far as I'm concerned...
223
They don't even work here anymore.
224
Okay, look, I...
225
Shut your mouth!
226
I risked everything for you.
227
Then I did it again. And again.
228
Wait, you weren't there.
229
I didn't have to be.
230
Jessica?
231
Jessica, you work for me.
232
I know I do, but I was just trying to get you what you wanted.
233
Your name on the door.
234
No, you got Edward Darby's name on the door.
235
My part of the deal is gone.
236
What?
237
You never told me that.
238
I didn't think I needed to tell you that, because I didn't think you would ever betray me.
239
Harvey, look at what we've done.
240
You and me.
241
You broke the Chinese wall.
242
I got information directly from Scotty.
243
That's two ethical violations that six weeks ago would have made your stomach turn.
244
That's not why you did it.
245
Fine.
246
But look me in the eye and tell me it's not true anyway.
247
You know what?
248
It doesn't matter, because you don't get to make my decisions for me.
249
Isn't that what you were trying to do for me?
250
This is a private conversation.
251
You want to have it out.
252
Let's have it out right now You might want to go
253
Sorry
254
You're back in the associates pool Harvey come on turns out
255
you're not the best lawyer I've ever seen in fact You're fired.
256
No, he's not you're gonna overrule me on that too I didn't overrule you on the other.
257
I beat you fair and square.
258
No, you didn't.
259
You're right.
260
I cheated, like you.
261
You jumped to the other side.
262
You put me on the other side.
263
I had a deal that put your name right next to mine.
264
And it wasn't even up there yet, and you started acting like it was on top of mine.
265
To protect you.
266
Bullshit.
267
This wasn't about protecting me.
268
This was about advancing you.
269
That's what this whole thing is about.
270
What?
271
Hartman said it.
272
I didn't think it was true.
273
He said, you don't trust me.
274
He meant, you're afraid of me.
275
Afraid of you?
276
Boy, I just kicked your ass.
277
And you didn't just want it.
278
You begged me for it.
279
So now, you're going to stay here, be humble, and learn your goddamn place.
280
How long have you been waiting here?
281
Since I found out what you need.
282
What I need is for you to leave me alone.
283
No, what you need is information on Ava Hesington.
284
Look, in 2008, her company tried to destroy evidence of...
285
Noilsville?
286
Okay, well, in 2010...
287
They bought off a whistleblower.
288
And if the next thing you're gonna tell me is about an environmental impact study in 2006, don't.
289
You think you're not replaceable?
290
I got all that from an associate I picked at random.
291
I've been doing this before I met you, and I'll be doing it long after I've forgotten all about you.
292
You had enough?
293
No. No, you know what?
294
I haven't, because you haven't.
295
Excuse me?
296
You haven't said whatever you have to say to rip me to shreds enough so that you can start to forgive me.
297
So go ahead.
298
Whatever it takes, I can take it.
299
Go.
300
Harvey, I am sorry, alright, but I need you to listen to me now!
301
Listen to you?
302
You know when I would have listened to you? That night.
303
Jessica threatened me.
304
I don't care.
305
Anyone comes at you with any threat at all, you come to me.
306
I don't give a shit if it's the Queen of England.
307
You come to me, you tell me, you tell me everything.
308
That's what goddamn loyalty is.
309
Emanuel Mariga, 20 years ago at the University of Cape Town as an econ major.
310
Always had a head for business.
311
He was also on the rugby team.
312
You know who else played rugby?
313
Stephen Howley.
314
Stephen's record from Cambridge included a semester abroad at the University of Cape Town. That year's team.
315
They had a hell of a season.
316
They're still a team.
317
Darby was clear.
318
Whenever he has a problem, Stephen's the one he sends in to fix it.
319
And Ava's problem was his problem, so when she came to him to get her pipeline built...
320
He went to Stephen.
321
You want to know what it took to set up those murders?
322
One phone call to Mariga from the offices of Darby International, from Stephen Huntley's London office.
323
From there, Mariga calls Nick, Nick calls Ava, and the whole thing is set in motion.
324
They thought they were paying for a bride, but they were actually paying for murder.
325
And they never knew the connection.
326
And when Ava's about to be charged for murder, Stephen shows up to make sure we'd never find out.
327
I'm so sorry, Harvey.
328
Harvey.
329
Harvey, what are you gonna do?
330
Ah!
331
Ah!
332
Ah!
333
Lewis, we gave you one job and you blew it.
334
How the hell did you screw up those negotiations?
335
Screw up?
336
Come on, what are you talking about?
337
They got us the corporate jet, we keep our first dividend checks, and they pay for our new letterhead.
338
You know what?
339
You just put that in your pipe and you smoke it.
340
I don't give a shit about the goddamn letterhead.
341
You don't think I know that?
342
Nobody cares about the goddamn letterhead, okay?
343
Nigel went after Mikado.
344
What the hell is Mikado?
345
Not what, who.
346
She's a cat.
347
He went after your cat.
348
He went after his cat.
349
He tortured his cat?
350
He deprived her of my letters.
351
Lewis?
352
You lost your shit during a negotiation because someone didn't read your letters to their cat?
353
Harvey, please.
354
I'm sorry.
355
I lost my head.
356
I don't even remember signing the agreement.
357
Well, you did!
358
And, Lewis, you've been asking Jessica to give you the ball instead of me ever since the day I met you.
359
Well, she gave it to you.
360
And you just went and scored a touchdown for the other team.
361
Lewis, I can't believe it.
362
I give you one goddamn job to do, and you...
363
What are you doing up there?
364
Harvey, please, I can explain.
365
Explain why you stood in front of the judge like a moron?
366
What possible explanation?
367
Sheila got engaged.
368
What? When?
369
This morning.
370
Louis, I'm sorry.
371
I was so sure that you were just coming around about having children, you know?
372
That's why I've been turning down all those J-Date requests.
373
We'll get Mike another way.
374
Oh, you're goddamn right.
375
We're gonna get him.
376
I'm gonna get that son of a bitch if it's the last thing I do.
377
What are you talking about?
378
He used the Sheila news to get into my head, Harry.
379
Used the news or gave you the news?
380
Please.
381
What difference does it make?
382
What difference does it make?
383
It makes all the difference.
384
Like, on the one hand, I feel for you, and on the other, you're the world's biggest idiot.
385
Look at my computer.
386
I've been staring at it for three hours.
387
It's real.
388
I don't believe it.
389
Yeah, that Adonis on that yacht.
390
Sheila's fiancée.
391
That Adonis is a Photoshopped picture of Lorenzo Lamas from 1998.
392
Who the hell is Lorenzo Lamas?
393
Well, I can tell you who he isn't.
394
He isn't Sheila's fiancée.
395
Oh, thank God.
396
Are you even listening?
397
It was bad enough that Nigel rattled you with your unread cat letters.
398
Now you're letting Mike do this?
399
Harvey, please.
400
Shut the hell up!
401
Look, I tried to warn you, and you stood there with your stupid leg up in the air, telling me that the student was no match for the master for the master
402
and all it took was one doctored picture for you to shit the bed.
403
I didn't mean to.
404
Shut the hell up.
405
You and I are gonna have a talk right now.
406
Okay, whatever it is, it can wait.
407
I need to tell you something.
408
Does that have something to do with why my sister just left here too upset to go out to dinner?
409
You piece of shit, I knew it what you do to her now.
410
I didn't do anything to her, Louis.
411
And when I say now, I mean as opposed to before, when you slept with her.
412
That's right.
413
Donna, the one you tried to steal from me at dinner the other night, told you.
414
Calm down.
415
I didn't try to steal any.
416
You made a promise to me!
417
And even after I told you about when Esther and I were kids and the boys used me to get to her, you still went ahead and betrayed me.
418
Louis, it had already happened.
419
And I was just now about to tell you.
420
Bullshit.
421
You were never going to tell me.
422
You were going to keep it to yourself to the Louis, you have to believe me.
423
I swear I was just about to tell you.
424
What you're about to do is get your ass kicked.
425
All right, watch yourself.
426
Don't threaten something you can't handle.
427
You don't think I can handle you?
428
You also thought I was too stupid to find out, but I did find out.
429
I found out that you're nothing but a lying, cheating...
430
I didn't cheat with Esther!
431
It was two grown people making a goddamn decision for themselves.
432
Well, that decision ended with her walking out of here near tears because she didn't have all the facts.
433
Like the fact that you're a serial womanizer who can't stand when anyone else has...
434
Shut the hell up!
435
So he takes whatever woman's inside.
436
I'm telling you so messed up from whenever goddamn thing happened to him in his pathetic childhood
437
Get away from me Hey,
438
I was wondering when you'd show up.
439
Don't act like you don't remember me, Harvey.
440
We both know why you're here.
441
I don't know what you're talking about.
442
I'm here because I represent the prison.
443
Bullshit.
444
I pulled the string and you came.
445
You think it's a coincidence I'm standing here while you're walking out?
446
Okay, Gala, you got my attention.
447
You want me to step inside?
448
You want to come out here?
449
We both know that's not possible.
450
You've only 13 years.
451
I'm gonna collect.
452
I didn't do anything to you that that investigator didn't start me knowing.
453
Well, if his little boyfriend ever shows up in here, I'll be sure to take it up with him.
454
What do you want, Gallo?
455
I already have what I want.
456
Which is knowing that every time your phone rings, you're gonna ask yourself, is this the call where you find out
457
that the guy who's in here for you is never coming out?
458
Get him!
459
Listen to me, you son of a bitch.
460
You think I can't hurt you in here?
461
I'll put a goddamn bounty on your head.
462
I'll pay him whatever it takes to break your legs.
463
And if that doesn't work, I'll wait till you get out and I'll kill you myself.
464
So unless you want that to happen, don't you ever even look at Mike Ross again.
465

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
