Mike's grandmother

Kind of disappointed with the show this week. They handwaved Donna back into the picture, and I can't decide whether or not I'm annoyed by that. On the one hand, the show's just better with her around. On the other hand there's just no logical way that she gets back through those doors until after the vote. She got fired for destroying evidence as part of the fraud trial that weakened Jessica's position in the firm to the point of vulnerability. Probably for the best that Harvey basically just wished her back into the office rather than the show burning a whole hour watching Harvey and Mike hatch a zany scheme to get her back with the firm. This way there's no time to get hung up on the insanity of that plot resolution because they throw a dozen more things in the fire. That's another strength of this show becoming so ensemble oriented.
Everything they did with Louis this week was a winner. Quickly becoming the richest character on the show.
Really? Killing the granny? I get it. She's old. That's what old characters do. However, when I was left feeling like killing Harvey's dad last week was a soap opera move this one really left me rolling my eyes. Admittedly I was in another room feeding my daughter and only half listening so maybe it had more of an emotional punch if I was totally engaged in the episode. If they're going to go gimmicky like that I hope they commit all the way and make the late scene, off camera death a weekly staple.
"I'm sorry, Jessica, but both of your parents just had a heart attack."
"I'm sorry, Harold, but your tattoo artist had a heart attack."
"I'm sorry, Daniel, but it turns out your wife didn't really die of cancer! She was alive this whole time, but she just died of a heart attack."
