![]() | Season 2 / Episode 9: - Asterisk Jessica Pearson: I put you out once. When I beat you this time, they're going to have to peel you off the wall. Daniel Hardman: It's nice to see you doing your own dirty work for a change. Unfortunately, this time you can't have Harvey threaten to tell my dying wife or my teenaged daughter about my indiscretions. You didn't even know about Sara, did you? Jessica Pearson: He did what I told him to do. Daniel Hardman: No, you can't even control your own attack dog. Well get this, I wasn't even planning on coming back after Alicia died. Then you sent him and I had no choice. Jessica Pearson: Bullshit. You do what you want to do. You always have, and you always will. Daniel Hardman: Well, water under the bridge. We are where we are. And I like where I am. And we'll see who peels whom off the wall. |
![]() | Season 2 / Episode 9: - Asterisk Donna Paulsen: Daniel just made Louis senior partner. Jessica Pearson: How do you know?

![]() | Season 2 / Episode 9: - Asterisk Jessica Pearson: You got Hanson that job at Justice. Daniel Hardman: A loss for us, but a gain for Justice, don't you think?

Daniel Hardman: It was within my rights according to the bylaws you wrote. Jessica Pearson: Ah, yes. And how much did buying his vote cost you? Daniel Hardman: Cost me? It was earned years ago. And your failure to promote him is a perfect example of how your judgment harmed this firm. Jessica Pearson: My judgment, and my discretion, are the only reasons your ass didn't end up in jail five years ago. Daniel Hardman: It wasn't discretion, it was self interest! You ousted me and got the firm. Jessica Pearson: I saved you and got the firm. Daniel Hardman: You did. But you didn't steal the ball from me five years ago, I dropped it. My lieutenant was all you were ever meant to be. |

Jessica Pearson: Senior partnership. Harvey Specter: You need to tell him that he deserves it. Jessica Pearson: That's what I sent you to do. Harvey Specter: He needs to hear it from you.

Jessica Pearson: You got me. Harvey Specter: Why would you send me first? Jessica Pearson: Because if Louis didn't have to work to get me there, he wouldn't believe me when I went. Harvey Specter: You're playing chess while everybody else is playing checkers. Jessica Pearson: And you're just getting that, Mr. I'm The Best Closer This City's Ever Seen? |
![]() | Season 2 / Episode 9: - Asterisk Louis Litt: I'm presenting my partnership buy-in check to you in your current capacity of managing partner. Jessica Pearson: Current?

Jessica Pearson: We went to law school together and I got her drunk. Harvey Specter: So? Jessica Pearson: She woke up in front of the entire econ law class. Harvey Specter: That's recoverable. Jessica Pearson: She might have been naked. Harvey Specter: Might have? Jessica Pearson: Was. Harvey Specter: We're screwed. Jessica Pearson: Come on, Harvey. She was uptight, I just straightened her out. That's what you do with uptight people. Harvey Specter: Well why didn't you ever do that to Louis. Jessica Pearson: I did. Harvey Specter: That was you?

Pearson Hardman is now a platinum-level donor. Go Fullman! Ella Fullman: I know what you're doing. Jessica Pearson: Of course, you don't have to disclose this, and neither do we. But I am of the opinion that elections are about truth, and truth requires openness. Ella Fullman: You think you can get me to recuse by implying conflict of interest? Jessica Pearson: You know I hadn't thought of that. Ella Fullman: I'll simply return the money. Jessica Pearson: That is certainly your prerogative. But it could look like you took money for favors and then got scared. No one forced liquor down your throat, Ella. You got drunk, we played a bad joke, but that was a long time ago. You know a man's reputation is at stake, and I'm not joking with you now. |
![]() | Season 2 / Episode 6: - All In Ella Fullman: That was a good speech. Got me right here. The only thing is you said "we played a joke." There was no "we," it was you. You targeted me. Jessica Pearson: What do you want me to say? I was young. I was stupid. And I'm sorry. Ella Fullman: You were young and smart. And I don't believe you were sorry for a second, because it was no accident that the classroom you chose belonged to the professor who was conducting the interviews for the job we both wanted. Jessica Pearson: I had no idea. Ella Fullman: You sabotaged me. Jessica Pearson: There were dozens of applicants. Ella Fullman: No, we both know it was you or me. Jessica Pearson: I didn't know that he... Ella Fullman: Objection. Bullshit. Jessica Pearson: What do you want, Ella? Ella Fullman: I want to recuse myself. On one condition- admit you know what you did. Jessica Pearson: I wanted that job. I know what I did. I'm not sorry I did it. And I'd do it again. |
