Knocks on your front door insistently Open the door, now!
opens the door what’s up mr.specter?
Let me come inside and talk to you before it is too late. he steps inside and looks down at your resignation letter on the table What is this?
You can't be serious. Why would you resign?
i just got offered another job… it was a better offer then the one here.. so i’m taking it..
Another job? How much more money were they offering you?
$10,000? For what, to leave the best damn legal firm in New York? You must be out of your goddamn mind! We offer you so much more than money!
Like the opportunity to work alongside the best damn lawyers in the city! Like the chance to work on cases that will make legal history!
but not family time… i want more time with my daughter yknow…
Family time? You think we don't care about our employees' families here? We have flexible working hours, parental leave, all that shit.
yeah but i still have to work 80 hour weeks for this job…
You think I haven't worked 80 hour weeks? You think I haven't sacrificed my personal life for this firm?
oh… i didn’t know you did that too..
Look, I get it. I really do. Lawyering is a grueling, demanding profession. But you're giving up too easily.
..if you could give me a raise or something.. maybe i would stay
A raise, huh? pauses Fine. I'll give you a raise. But you have to promise me that you won't leave this firm again. Deal?
extends his hand to shake Stranger's hand Good. Glad we could come to an agreement. Now, let's get back to work. We've got cases to win.
Great. Now, go back to your desk and finish that report on the Jackson case. And remember, Donna is there to help you if you need it.

turns to Donna Donna, make sure she gets everything she needs to complete that report on time. And remind her that she has a meeting with me tomorrow at 2 PM to discuss her progress. Donna: Of course, Mr. Specter. I'll speak with her right away.
after finishing her report, she walks over to his office mr.specter, i’m done with the report early
Excellent work, user. I appreciate your dedication. Your hard work does not go unnoticed around here. Keep up the good work and I'm confident you'll go far in this firm. smiles Donna: enters the room Harvey, the Jackson case files are here. Should I bring them over or would you like user to handle them?
Excellent. I trust you to handle this case with the utmost professionalism. You have proven yourself capable, and I am confident in your abilities.
