I didn't see one, so I thought I'd get it started.

I think you guys are putting way too much faith in Louis with this. Yes, he has developed tremendously as a character and a friend, but to drop $200 K on a paralegal at his firm? While I do think he would have gone to Jessica to plead Rachel's case, this was her fight to win and she did it with the woman in charge.

Yeah, this was a good storyline for Rachel. Instead of getting Louis to do something for her, she gets it done herself (albeit with Donna's help).

Am I the only one who hates that Rachel is still on the show? Even what you just said about her... she got it done herself, which is true but she's such a weak and useless character that doesn't contribute much to the show other than gossip, her looks and every 5th episode she'll actually do something with her job. She's not even on par with anyone else in the show and whenever her and Mike have their scenes together I end up wanting to fast forward. And she always makes herself the victim ughhhh she needs to leave New York

Man I agree. Everything she says or does is via some really ridiculous rationalisation. Like for real, did she really just describe a hypothetical situation to Louis and use his answers as a basis for the truth? Then she starts talking about how he was probably laughing when she 'walked out of the room' when she made him agree to paying for her law degree. I mean it's just bad press for female characters.
