-
Jessica Pearson : This is my call.
Harvey Specter : I'm afraid it isn't.
Jessica Pearson : Excuse me?
Harvey Specter : You and I both know who assigned me to this case, and it wasn't you. It was the man you chose to merge with, the same man who has a 51% share of our law firm; so, unless you're gonna undo THAT, you're gonna live with THIS.
-
Harvey Specter : I wasn't wrong about it being personal. I was wrong about which person. You're not pissed at me. You're pissed at yourself for getting played.
Jessica Pearson : What did you just say to me?
Harvey Specter : You heard me. Fools rush in, and you're the one who gave him the 51% in the first place.
Jessica Pearson : I merged with Edward for the sake of this firm, just like what I did today with Ava. And the only one in this room taking things personally is you.
Harvey Specter : Tell yourself whatever you want, but don't tell me it doesn't have to do with Darby and don't tell me it isn't personal, because you can't stand being number two.
-
Jessica Pearson : I am in charge on this side of the ocean.
Edward Darby : Because I allow it to be that way.
Jessica Pearson : And, there it is again - 51-49.
Edward Darby : Until now I believed that Harvey was the wild horse that couldn't be tamed, but perhaps it is you.
Jessica Pearson : I think maybe Harvey was right. It is personal, but I didn't make it that way. You did when you allowed your feelings for Ava to cloud your judgment; and, as you pointed out, I had a partner once who made decisions based on his personal shit, and I will not allow that to happen again; and, 51-49 or not, I just took fourteen million and put it on my side of the ledger, so do me a favor, Edward, and turn off the lights on your way out.
