Suits' Most Dramatic Courtroom Scenes | Suits

is psome please take the [Music] stand could you please St your employment history prior to becoming a legal secretary I was an actress were you able to make a living with that no I worked as a waitress to supplement my income but I don't see what that how much do you make now miss pulson somewhere in the six figures yes it's quite an improvement on minimum wage plus tips wouldn't you say what can I say I'm very good at what I do and reading a document related to the coastal Motors case that your firm tried years ago one of the things that you were good at doing the hell does he know about that doesn't matter he knows Miss Paulson I'll ask you again did you destroy evidence on that case and I'll remind you that you're under oath objection the document he's referring to was fake it's not illegal to get rid of fraudulent documents did she know that when she destroyed it it doesn't matter so unless he plans to prosecute the witness for doing her job I plan to ask the witness questions i' like the chance to do that your honor Mr Spector beov witness will answer the question yes I shredded the file that's your boss's request no Miss bson were you fired during the coastal Motors trial and then rehired one week later yes but and since then you've become your firm's Chief Operating Officer but you're not a lawyer are you you don't need to be a lawyer to be a COO then you have an MBA no I don't of course you don't all you have is a bachelor's in theater and you were a part-time waitress part-time actress when you quit to become a legal secretary which is what you were until Harvey Spectre made you coo overnight tell me do you have any of the qualifications normally required for that position I have been at the firm long than anyone I know how it works oh so do I by breaking the law and then rewarding the people that do that's a lie well then how did you get your promotion because there's only two ways I can think of when you're not qualified and they're both pretty distasteful objection that's inflammatory answer the question I'll tell you how I got it I asked for it you asked for well you know if that's all it takes maybe I should ask Mr Spectre for a pony except I don't think that's all it takes I think it takes destroying evidence getting fake fired and a little acting ability to pull it off your honor is testified yeah well then I'll wrap it up because if she was willing to destroy evidence in that case she's willing to do it in this one and that is why the memo referred to in that article no longer exists your honor I've heard enough this case is moving forward and I'm allowing that article to be admitted as [Music] evidence let's talk about you Mr Spectre in two years you handled 1,362 cases 36 cases a day that's beyond impressive thank you you took 147 to trial winning them all don't go to trial if you're not going to win why'd you leave an attorney by the name of Jessica Pearson helped me get through law school and she felt that I could use trial experience but I always planned on ending up at her firm and paying her back by earning that firm outrageous settlements how am I doing could do better you two think that this is a joke argumentative you're damn right it's argumentative because he knows that laws have been broken and he has an obligation to report it Mr Leeds but if this is the way you want to play it the attorney general has given me a broad mandate to uncover what went on and it need not be limited to Mr Dennis were you part of the problem Mr Spectre vague I'll rephrase in Your Capacity as assistant district attorney in the county of New York did you knowingly suppress evidence in violation of the ABA rules of conduct the ndaa standards and the New York State Bar rule 8.4 section c my client would like to exercise his Fifth Amendment rights at this time Mr Ross we are prepared to hear your final statement before we do I have one last question Mr Ross you say you're a changed man and you care about the truth but I want to know if you're capable of telling the truth so I'm going to ask you a question and I suggest that you consider your answer very carefully because as far as I'm concerned your answer will determine whether or not you become a lawyer during your time at Pearson Spectre lit did anyone there have knowledge of the fact that you were a fraud Mr Ross did anyone else know I knew and if you're looking for a scalp you can have mine but I was under the impression that this hearing was not about my old firm but whether or not Mr Ross should be a lawyer I say he should it doesn't matter what you say he's already had someone testify for him I'm not here to talk about him I'm here to talk about someone else someone else has nothing to do I'd like to hear this 15 years ago a young woman was arrested for illegally obtaining prescription drugs turns out she had chronic pain and didn't want to drop out of med school possibly never to return so she stole a couple of prescription pads from the hospital where she was interning a crime with a mandatory sentence of 7 years but instead of throwing the book at her the prosecuting attorney showed Mercy had the charges knocked down to a misdemeanor recommended probation and sealed the records that's a touching story but I don't see what a random attorney has to do with these proceedings she's not talking about a random attorney she's talking about me just because I showed compassion once doesn't mean he deserves it now maybe he doesn't but that young woman is now an ER doctor she saves lives and the world's a better place because you saved hers thank you Miss Pearson Mr Ross I don't think I can add anything to that I've made my case I leave the choice to you then this hearing has concluded we will deliberate and let you know our decision by Day end thank you why didn't you just jump right in there I get it you read a book that says you don't let the jury sit with things the only problem is we're not inside of a book and I don't want to seem defensive Harvey we still have a ton of to hit him with were you in there they're buying what he's saying then we make them buy something else we got a pair of Aces if the jury believes that Cameron's got three of a kind we're not going to win we can't go after Steven Cameron won't go after AA if I can convince him it was Steven you went to Cameron yes and you're going to trust him I'm not sure we have another Choice you're thinking what I think you're thinking don't I'm thinking I'd like to rip your face off you get Maria to point the finger at me I will point it straight at AA stevenh Jessica doesn't respond well to threats I don't make threats I I give warnings you've been [Music] warned now is the prosecution ready to call their first witness the prosecution's first witness is this affidavit from every single member of the defendant's supposed graduating class objection your honor I haven't seen that well then let me read it to you we collectively come forward to swear the following regarding Michael James Ross we never saw him we never knew him we never heard of him and it makes us sick that he's taking the good name of Harvard Law School and throwing it down the toilet please find him guilty on all counts your honor I move to strike that document right now on what grounds on the grounds that it's completely fabricated where's your proof besides the fact that I actually went to Harvard there's no way you could have contacted all of those people since last night then I suggest you call every one of these people and put them on the stand but when you do every single one of them is going to look you in the eye and say who the hell are you what no Snappy comeback you can try to trick these people all you want but the fact is you didn't go to Harvard and this proves it objection he's testifying what I'm doing is winning all right that's enough I think this is a good time to take a [Music] break when the accident occurred you were on your way to The Medallion auction when and where was this auction to take place 9:00 a.m. City Hall according to the police report the accident occurred at 8:53 a.m. that means you only had 7 minutes to get downtown in rush hour traffic objection irrelevant I believe when I made the same objection you told his honor was highly relevant overruled you were running late only the stakes for you were much higher weren't they these things never start on time then why was the first Medallion sold at 9:03 a.m. you were scared your chance at a medallion was going up in smoke and you ran a red then you used the accident to paint me and Ray Benghazi as a couple of scapegoats you can't prove that what color was the light I take the fifth you can't take the fifth Mr Santana this isn't a criminal case what color was the light he cut me off you claim to love our legal system so much answer the question what color was the light what color was the light your honor answer a question Mr Santana it just meant so much to [Music] me your honor can I sidebar with opposing councel we can roll the dice with the jury but I'd rather settle how much do I have to pay nothing you take responsibility for the accident and your insurance company makes Ray whole in return I wave my right to collect legal fees I don't know what to say don't say anything I've got a reputation to maintain that goes for you too judge given that you smoked all this pot Mr Evans isn't it possible that if Mike Ross commuted one day a week to Harvard law that you might not remember that I'd remember yeah maybe you would but you'd lie through your teeth about it anyway wouldn't you objection Mr Evans isn't it true that you're a longtime drug dealer and your testimony today is only happening because you signed a deal with Miss Gibbs giving you immunity doesn't mean I'm lying because you wouldn't lie just to get out of going to prison no I would not well how about if the other reason was to get back at someone you've been jealous of your entire life I've never been jealous of my Ross in my entire life and I just caught you in a lie objection your honor Mr Evans my next move is going to be to call Jenny Griffith to the stand and she's going to testify that you lied to her for years about dealing when she found out about it she left you for Mike Ross objection badgering she's also going to say that you were jealous of his mind your entire life and when you found out that she left you for him you were as jealous as a human being can be now is that true or not your honor let me rephrase is Miss Griffith going to be perjuring herself or are you yeah I was jealous something and if he lied about all of that what's to make us believe that he wasn't lying about everything else no further questions your honor you guys heard evidence earlier in the trial that I have a photographic memory and I do but the way it works I don't just take a snapshot of something see I read it and then I understand it and once I understand it then I never forget it but I can try to memorize my speech but I can't because it's because I I am bullsh you see the truth is is that I am guilty of being a fraud my whole life I have wanted to be a lawyer so that I could help people like Clifford Danner people who have no one else to fight for them no one who believes in them but instead all I've done as a lawyer is work night and day to put money into the hands of rich people I was given a gift and I wasted it and I'm ashamed of myself and and and as a final insult I paraded this morning woman out in front of you just as a way to get you to admire [Music] me I'm so sorry Gloria and all I can say is that I promise you whether these people find me innocent or not I am going to spend the rest of my life fighting for the Clifford daners of this world I Will Not Waste that gift [Music] again you can believe it or not but I am a lawyer and I always will [Music] be thank you the plaintiff would like to call Miss Donna Paulson to the [Music] stand you got her to come in just stick to the script Harvey won't know what hit him Miss Paulson did Harvey Spectre order you to shred that document I declin to answer pursuant to my fifth amendment rights did you put your date stamp on that document I decline to answer I'm I'm not going to ask questions that you're just going to plead the fifth to [Music] so had Harvey Spectre asked you to bury something 5 years ago would you he wouldn't ask me to do that that's not what I asked if he did would you do it oh see you're pausing which means you're hiding something no I'm not see I think you do anything for him and I know why is there a question do you love Harvey Spectre what do you love him that has nothing to do with it has everything to do with with why'd your last boyfriend break up with you miss Paulson why'd he end it with you he thought that I prioritize my work over our relationship your work he asked you to choose between him and Harvey didn't he yes who'd you choose hary because you love him leis stop it is not that simple do you love him yes or no answer the question question you're with them all the time your work revolves around them your life revolves around them objection badgering you don't have a boyfriend but the one you did wouldn't share you with him your please I just need a do you love Harvey Spectre do you love Harvey Spectre that's [Music] [Music] enough [Music] [Music] sh
