Suits: Top Quotes from ‘Brooklyn Housing’ (Season 7 Episode 5)

On Suits Season 7 Episode 5, “Brooklyn Housing,” Mike is still trying to play both sides of the game, but helping with the prison case is getting even more complicated.

Meanwhile, Harvey has Louis help Paula with a lawsuit, Holly Cromwell returns, and Donna continues to adjust to her new leadership role.

As is always the case, this episode is full of quotable moments. Here are a few of the best quotes from “Brooklyn Housing.”

Rachel: Mike, I’m just worried about you burning the candle at both ends.

I’m worried about that too, Rachel.

Harvey: I’m telling ya. Louis is a pit bull.

It’s so nice to hear Harvey’s confidence in Louis. And Louis is definitely a pit bull when it comes to this sort of thing.

Harvey: Louis, what are you doing?
Louis: I’m playing desktop corn hole. It’s supposed to calm my nerves.

Who else wants their own desktop corn hole set now? I do!

Louis: Does Donna have any idea about the two of you?
Harvey: No. She doesn’t, and for right now, I’d like to keep it that way.

There could be several reasons Harvey doesn’t want Donna to know about his relationship with Paula. Donna would likely not approve, which matters to Harvey, but I think there’s more to it than that.

Harvey: I didn’t bring you back to not be here when I need you.

Harvey’s going to catch on to Mike eventually, you guys.

Mike: I don’t want to be here anymore than you do, but I need your help.

Who else was surprised to see Frank Gallo again? Only Mike would face this guy and try to cut him a deal for the greater good.

Oliver: What I know is what you taught me. Everybody has something they want. Which means all you have to do is find out whatever else Gallo wants and give it to him.

Mike has moved on from being mentored to being a mentor, and though he’s not making all the right decisions, he’s doing making an impact on Oliver.

Harvey: 15 minutes? Why didn’t you come and get me right away?
Donna: Because I only just noticed him when I walked by, and I’m not your secretary anymore. I’m COO of this firm.

Thank goodness Donna knows how to set Harvey straight, and I love that we get to see a new dynamic between the two of them.

Donna: Well, then maybe you shouldn’t promise a job at a lawyer to someone who isn’t a lawyer.
Harvey: Are you kidding me? You’re not a lawyer, and I just promoted you and that worked out pretty damn well if you ask me.
Donna: And you only did that after I proved my loyalty to this firm.

See what I mean?

Donna: It’s funny. I love my new position, but I miss this.
Harvey: I miss it too.

So do we, you guys. So do we.

Louis: I hadn’t really dealt with Tara. But one thing is clear. The situation was my doing. Which means I need to keep working on myself, because I don’t want to mess things up with the next Tara.
Dr. Lipschitz: Louis, typically I refrain from saying things like this to my patients, but I am proud of you.

This is a major moment of growth for Louis Litt.

Rachel: You have to ask yourself, what is your word worth? Because the way things are going, it’s not going to be worth very much.

Rachel’s words may sting, but they aren’t wrong either. In trying to do the right thing, Mike is making some terrible choices.
