Show Synopsis: "Suits" delves into the fast-paced, high-stakes world of a top Manhattan corporate law firm where hotshot associate Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht, “Love & Other Drugs”) makes a risky move by hiring Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams, “Old School”) a brilliant but unmotivated college dropout, as his associate. As he becomes enmeshed in this unfamiliar world, Mike relies heavily on the firm’s best paralegal Rachel (Megan Markle, “Horrible Bosses”) and Harvey's no-nonsense assistant Donna (Sarah Rafferty, “Brothers & Sisters”) to help him serve justice. With a photographic memory and the street smarts of a hustler, Mike proves to be a legal prodigy despite the absence of bonafide legal credentials.

At the start Mike relyed on Rachel to help him with the work, surely the other associates would have noticed. Rachel help him with all the research, as well as doing her own work, then he couldn't fill out the patent forms, Gregory the associate did it. Simple tasks, after studying law for four or five years at Harvard, should have gave more tell signs. How come the associates didn't complain, when they were picking up the slack.

[@Egelwagen]

Because of the plot armour. There are so many fake things in suits. But it is all so the plot could move forward. At one point Donna even makes partner, she goes from secretary to partner without one step in between. That would never happen.

[@P51DFreak25]

Or none of them recognized him lol.

[@IanMcD204]

It's completely unrealistic to have a law firm that only recruits out of Harvard (or any other one law school) where other associates wouldn't piece it together that nobody knows the guy. Between that, his mistakes on more administrative stuff, and a quick phone call to the state bar association he'd be criminally charged with unauthorized practice of law within a few weeks in the real world.

[@annogrady3513]

@@IanMcD204 I know you are right, it is only tv, would not happen in the real world, not possible. I think the worst is in the episode blind sided, Mike broke attorney client privilege. Prosecutor Katrina Bennet found out. I'm not a lawyer, just an ordinary person, but I imagine first day in law school, they teach you about attorney client privilege , how sacred it is.

[@Hurleeee]

It’s more common than you would think, law school is primarily geared at helping you to see when an issue that needs to be addressed exists, as far as admin stuff goes you are basically a potato when you get started. It’s actually one of the few things the show gets right.

[@danielgrobbelaar9672]

Louis obviously had a suspicion, otherwise he wouldn't ask such a rudimentary question unrelated to law as the final question. The question is ridiculous

[@nelauren]

As the law is precise, the question posed by Louis is not precise, as Pinocchios pizza does not call it “square” pizza, they call it Sicilian Pizza.

Fact is Louis probably knew it was wrong but gave it to him just because the majority of Harvard graduates would argue otherwise in case he said this was wrong and he doesn't want them on his back. But since Mike brought it up himself, no one can say anything because he's also a "fresh harvard graduate" and therefore what he knows should also be known by all other fresh harvard graduates, Louis is actually happy and you can see it from his smile.
