** This becomes even more awesome later, when it inspires Jessica's EurekaMoment later in the episode to stop Loui's reign of terror, pointing out that since he used Mike's secret for his own benefit to become a named partner, he is now just as much guilty of fraud as the rest of them.

* In "Enough is Enough" when Jessica once again gets on Mike's case because of his secret and how it keeps causing trouble, this time due to Louis finding out and using it to blackmail everyone to make himself a named partner, Mike stands up for himself against Jessica and points out that despite how she keeps saying it is "''his'' secret", ''[[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech she]]'' [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech has constantly used it to her own advantage multiple times]], leaving her speechless.

A guard comes up and Mike says it's okay "unless you want to report a federal marshal beat me down."

Mike says he'll confess in order to get a video camera brought in, so it's on record that he hasn't gotten to see his lawyer. Later, when said attorney [[spoiler: tries to bring Harvey up on charges of conspiracy to commit fraud]], Mike brings that tape up, tells a judge the exact serial number of the recorder they used, and makes the attorney back off (for the moment, at least).

* Mike finally stepping up his game in 2x11. After he realizes [[YouAreWhatYouHate he did the exact same thing his family's "lawyer" did to him back when he was young]], he goes to said "lawyer" and shuts him down completely: he fakely confesses to the crime that his client is accused of, only for said "lawyer" to have proven to have gotten even worse and ''more'' ignorant with time. Then hedelivers an absolutely ''epic'' TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, ending it by telling hi that he hopes he remembers the life he ruined when he hears Mike's parents' two names. Not just that, but right after, he goes and tells his client that he made a huge mistake cleaning his slate and officially delcares that he's on his own.

Stick it in Tearjerker if you believe that to be the case. An Awesome subpage doesn't exist to debate examples.
