Suits LA – Acapulco – Review : Thank God I’m Not You

Fits LA : season 1 episode 8 begins with Ted coming to Amanda checking to see if she has considered his proposal, which she turns down however is open to her being satisfied to affix. I’ve to confess she doesn’t appear too eager on doing the job, but it surely appears it could be extra to do with Ted than to do with the job itself.

We transfer onto Erica receiving a telephone name from her mum notifying that Arthur has died, she then tells a candy childhood story of when she was stealing lemons from his again backyard and when she acquired caught, as a substitute of scolding her for it he helped her arrange her lemonade stand. As candy as this story is, Erica is unable to give attention to the loss of life of somebody expensive to her as she instantly has to give attention to Adam probably shifting companies. 

We then see that Leah’s cat has been put down while on the vets, I don’t overly agree with the best way she was informed by the veterinarian, there positively might have been a extra sympathetic and sort method to method the scenario, nevertheless she additionally will not be given a second to consider her loss as Erica unloads her emotions onto her when she advises that she received’t be capable to go to the dinner with Adam. 

This episode may be very quick paced and showcases three completely different storylines, the second being between David Bowie and Stuart, David admits to Stuart that he didn’t set the automobile alight, nevertheless he did intimidate her, nevertheless he does have credible proof that the witness is a drug addict. 

We then transfer onto the third storyline of this episode with the flashback to New York 2010, the place Ted receives a loss of life menace a few newspaper prank. The courtroom is simply as tense when Jimmy is describing how he was ordered to make hits on folks, somebody taking a trip at all times meant that they need to be murdered, particularly blown up in the best way that Pellegrini appreciated. It’s then revealed by Jimmy that Billy Esposito had a success ordered on him on account of him testifying in opposition to Pellegrini, Jimmy advises that each one hits should happen inside a two-day interval and 5 of the 15 hits that had been ordered have been in particular person. It’s rapidly drawn out of him throughout questioning that he was not within the room with Pellegrini when the hits have been ordered as he was out of city for a minimum of every week earlier than the murders occurred. 

We then come again to the current day the place Erica has been referred to as into converse to Martin at HR, who she rapidly activates and rips into him for interjecting right into a scenario he was neither concerned in or made conscious of, solely that he overheard the dialog and didn’t really feel it was applicable, which he was right about. 

A flashback to New York 2010 is proven once more, this time Ted is arguing with Jimmy about mendacity on the stand on account of wanting a deal. This results in Ted’s boss scolding him and stating that Ted goes to be the disgraced son of a convict and he was the idiot to offer him an opportunity if he didn’t remedy it. Ted is aware of that he wants monetary information to win the case which he speaks to Billie’s daughter about to attempt to receive them. He knew that she would refuse to point out them to him however that she would additionally go straight to them, so he had Kevin comply with her to get them. 

Kevin meets Ted at his house and discuss how the one particular person that might assist them is Harvey Specter, Ted is introduced out of his hint into the previous by Amanda speaking, he barely opens as much as Amanda and the way New York went unhealthy and the way he had at all times wished to be a prosecutor, he asks Amanda to rethink which she provides that she could achieve this. 

We then head again to our second storyline with Stuart approaching Rick’s consumer to request drug proof which he obtains, albeit inflicting Rick to free his relationship along with his consumer, not that he appears bothered by this. 

Erica then is met by Roslyn in her workplace, calling her out on her behaviour in direction of Martin and needing her to talk to Martin about her actions. Erica obliges and goes to see Martin, apologising for her behaviour, his response being extremely humorous calling her an offended preying mantis. Martin provides Erica the data that Leah had her cat put down which is why she was unable to make it to her assembly. 

Now we have a small scene of Amanda visiting Stuart to ask him questions on Ted and whether or not he’s an Moral man or not, to which she is met with the response that Stuart respects Ted, however he doesn’t like that Stuart wished to symbolize everybody. 

As soon as once more, the storyline switches to New York 2010, with Harvey and Ted assembly in a bar, nevertheless the assembly doesn’t go to plan for Ted as Harvey refuses to surrender shoppers monetary information. Personally certainly one of my favorite quotes from this episode occurs on this episode when Harvey states “Thank God I’m not you” in response to Ted saying he would do the identical if he was in his place. This scene to me actually confirmed how properly Gabriel Macht slips straight again into being Harvey, it was such a small scene, but it surely exudes Harvey Specter persona. 

We then see Stuart in New York which shocks not solely the viewers but in addition Ted, he’s making an attempt to get Jimmy a deal and encourages Ted to offer him a second change. 

We as soon as once more return to the current day the place Stuart has visited Isaac on the DA’s workplace to inform him to drop the whole David Bowie go well with, nevertheless he’s met by an icy reception when Isaac tells him that one other witness with no points or soiled laundry is keen to testify. Stuart orders David to his workplace, he calls for that he finds another person to symbolize him as there’s one other witness who recorded their dialog when Bowie threatened him. As a way to hold Stuart as his lawyer, Bowie tells him that he threatened 40-50 folks and it was inconceivable to know who it was, he additionally admits to lighting the hearth within the automobile, however he by no means wished to kill her, simply to warn her. Stuart agrees to maintain him on as a consumer, which I positively didn’t suppose was a wise concept while watching, and that idea will get confirmed in direction of the top of the episode.

Once more we flip to our Erica storyline the place we see her method Leah in regards to the loss of life of her cat, it begins out sympathetic nevertheless she as soon as once more unloads on Leah for not pushing down her emotions identical to Erica had when somebody she cared about died. We comply with Erica to her mom’s home the place she cries over not attending to say goodbye to Arthur as a result of she thought she had extra time. 

For the ultimate time on this episode we flashback to New York 2010, the place Jimmy has taken the stand as soon as once more, explaining how Billie was his finest pal and the way he wanted to be informed by Pellegrini instantly if he was going to kill him and never by way of Vinnie Santoro, Ted then submits picture proof of Jimmy and Pellegrini outdoors the latter’s workplace. While Ted and Kevin are discussing the case, Harvey reveals up with a field of economic information, and a small victory second for all of the OG Fits followers a point out of Daniel Hardman and Harvey getting his personal again on him. 

Again to the current day and Amanda has confirmed that she’s going to be a part of Ted, however provided that she will be able to have the solutions to 2 questions, the primary being if she will be able to defend anybody even when that particular person is responsible which Ted advises that she will be able to. The second query being extra intimate on what they’re doing and the place they’re going relationship clever, Amanda provides Ted time to consider it, nevertheless he chooses this time to go away. 

The ultimate scene of this episode units up episode 9 completely by having Harvey clarify that they are going to be taking a visit to New York to make sure that they do the proper factor this time.
