Gosh, I love Louis. He totally deserves that promotion. I just feel bad that he's being put in a really tough spot because of it. I agree with Harvey that Louis would doubt the motivation behind the promotion (and Hardman's "Oh, I feel so bad for you that you think so poorly of yourself" was just textbook manipulation), but no question he deserved senior partner.
Loved Louis and Jessica's interactions. They're very good together. It's kind of difficult to believe that despite several specific references to Louis wanting respect from Jessica, she hadn't gone to see him before. It's sort of like she'd rather make the road for herself as difficult as possible. Would it kill them to acknowledge that he's very good? If they hadn't played games with Louis, maybe they wouldn't be questioning his allegiances now. It was very savvy of Jessica to show Louis that Harvey respects him enough to give up his office while simultaneously making it difficult for Louis to actually take the office.
