Louis eventually informs Harvey Specter, who in turn notifies Robert, who confides in Louis that at the age of fourteen, he once assaulted someone with a group of friends after a botched robbery attempt. Robert assures Louis that they are now a family and that Louis should feel free to talk to him about any future issues.

Quotes
Sheila: I didn't want to have to do this, but I'm fertile and I am ripe for the picking. So I don't care whether you have a meeting or not. I'm going to need your Johnny Appleseed. |
Robert: I didn't ask you when you'd get here, Louis. I asked you where you were. Louis: That's, uh, kind of personal. Robert: Well, I feel kind of bad about that, Louis, but I've been standing here with nothing but my dick in my hand for the last 30 minutes. Louis: All right, well, if you wanna know, Sheila and I are trying to have a baby and she's not getting any younger, and we're just trying to take advantage of any opportunity we can. Robert: Why didn't you say so? Just get here as fast as you can. |
Mugger: Get on the ground, and don't you fucking look at me. Louis: Okay, okay. Mugger: Wallet and phone. Where's the phone? Louis: There's $1,000 in there, is that... is that not enough? Mugger: You think we're negotiating, here? Louis: No, no, no, it's just that there... there's pictures on my phone that I haven't backed up. Mugger: I don't give a shit! |
Harvey: Alex, you are one devious motherfucker. Alex: Thanks, I'll take that as a compliment. Harvey: In that case, you're a real asshole of a guy, too. |
Donna: Zane already thinks I overstep my bounds. The last thing I need is for him to think that I can't hand in my homework on time, too. Alex: Well, if that's what he thinks about you, you can have the copier, and Robert Zane can go fuck himself. |
Donna: I mean you're in a Kobayashi Maru. Alex: What the hell does sushi have to do with this? Donna: It's not sushi, it's from "Star Trek," and Harvey's been talking about it for a hundred years. I always thought it was bullshit, but maybe it's not. Alex: What do you mean? Donna: I mean, sooner or later, everyone finds themselves walled into a no-win situation. This one's yours, and the way to prove yourself to both Harvey and Zane is to find a way out anyway. Alex: Well, thanks, Donna. And here I thought going to Harvard was the way to get ahead, when really, I should have just been watching old "Star Trek"s. Well, I didn't, so unless the answer is in an episode of "Cagney and Lacey"... |
Alex: And maybe I should have watched a little "Star Trek" growing up after all. Harvey: What? How could you never watch "Star Trek?" Alex: Because it's a stupid show with shitty effects. Harvey: You realize I love that show, right? Alex: I don't care how you feel about it. It's a stupid show with shitty effects. Harvey: You know what, Alex? You may be a hell of a lawyer, but if you can't appreciate the original "Star Trek," you're nothing, because Captain Kirk is the best television character ever created. Alex: I've got two words for you, motherfucker. Magnum, P.I. Harvey: Those are fighting words. You know that, right? Alex: They're not fighting words, Harvey, they're drinking words. So sit on down, and let's hash this out like two people who can both appreciate *M*A*S*H. |
