In season 6 episode 9 of Suits, titled "The Hand That Feeds You," the lawyers at Pearson Specter Litt are still reeling from the revelation that their managing partner, Jessica Pearson (Gina Torres), is leaving the firm. As they struggle to pick up the pieces and move on, they are faced with a new challenge: a high-profile client who refuses to listen to reason.
The client in question is a wealthy businessman named Jack Soloff (John Pyper-Ferguson). Soloff has been accused of insider trading, and the SEC is hot on his trail. Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht) and his team are confident that they can win the case, but Soloff insists on taking matters into his own hands. He hires a team of private investigators to dig up dirt on the SEC's lead prosecutor, hoping to discredit him and persuade the government to drop the charges.
Despite their misgivings, Harvey and his colleagues agree to help Soloff with his plan. They believe that the prosecutor in question, Andrew Malik (Naveen Andrews), has a history of unethical behavior, and that the information they uncover will be enough to undermine his credibility in court.
As they dig deeper, however, they begin to realize that things may not be as they seem. Soloff's investigators uncover some troubling information about Malik, but they also discover evidence that suggests that Soloff himself may be involved in illegal activities. Harvey and his team are left with a tough decision: do they continue to assist Soloff, potentially putting their own careers in jeopardy, or do they cut ties and risk alienating a valuable client?
Complicating matters further is the fact that Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams), one of the firm's top associates, is concerned about the way Harvey and the rest of the team are handling the case. He worries that they are putting money and power above their commitment to justice and the law. As tensions mount and secrets are revealed, Mike must decide whether to stay loyal to his colleagues or speak out against them.
Overall, "The Hand That Feeds You" is an intense and thought-provoking episode that deals with big questions about loyalty, morality, and the complicated world of corporate law. Fans of Suits will appreciate the fast-paced action and the chance to see their favorite characters grappling with tough ethical dilemmas.
