Suits: Season 3 Episode 2: 'I Want You to Want Me' (Promo Video)
USA Network's hit legal drama Suits returned with a brand new season on July 17th and the premiere episode 'Arrangement' laid the base for a possible coup against Jessica Pearson (Gina Torres) and the second episode of season 3 intends to heighten the conflict.
Harvey Spencer (Gabriel Matchet) is the man she picked, backed and promoted and now he wants to take her down. She had check-mated him by forcing his loyal associate Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adam) to betray. A defeated Harvey had to acquiesce to Jessica's terms and conditions.
The second episode, 'I Want you to Want Me', on Tuesday promises to keep the viewers hooked till the end because battle lines have been drawn and Harvey knows only one way and that is, 'to fight and win'. But, this is one battle that Harvey might lose, too unlike winning 'almost' all his clients' legal cases. It is not going to be easy to plot the downfall of Jessica because as a former mentor she knows more about Harvey than anyone else in the firm, now called Pearson-Darby.
The promo of the second episode shows Rachel Zane (Meghan Markel) telling Mike that "I hope you know, he (Harvey) has no intention of ever forgiving you." However, the promo's end offers a hope that the winning team of Harvey and Mike is back and that Harvey has forgiven Mike. One can hear Harvey telling Mike, "You made your choice, there is no hell going back." As a shipper of Harvey-Mike winning team, one can hope that he is talking about the big office that Mike gave up to take a chance at winning back Harvey's trust. Or, according to a skeptical alter-ego, he is most probably talking about the betrayal.
"You're planning a coup?" asks Donna Paulsen (Sarah Rafferty) in the promo.
"I am!" Harvey replies without batting an eye.
But, Jessica is no meek lamb and as she says in the promo, "... I'll do whatever I've to do to win."
"It's every man to himself" and it's going to be an interesting watch.
