* Louis goes to Harvey to sincerely apologize and offer to help [[spoiler: against Hardman in Monica Eton case against P&H.]] Harvey gently refuses. When Louis relents, Harvey reveals that in a deposition for said case, supposed 'facts' against Louis came up. Louis is so shaken by those facts that his hands are shaking. The heartwarming aspect comes in that Harvey supports and comforts him despite/because of all the history between them.

* Louis notices Mike has just been beat up and promptly drags him to the bathroom to administer first-aid. While there, the two have a pretty personal heart-to-heart about things which builds upon the respect they had in their previous episode together. And whether it was the situation or the candidness, Louis actually almost breaks down and Mike helps him redeem himself.

* Mike doesn't get a bonus from the firm because no one (ie Jessica) thinks he's a lawyer even though all the other associates get one. Harvey gives Mike a bonus. Heartwarming, yes, but remember that this would also have to have come out of Harvey's personal account, so doubly so.

** Also the few scenes beforehand when Harvey is talking to Donna about Mike and then Harvey being at Mike's door. For starters, Harvey admits to Donna that 'he expected him to come back'. And then, Harvey reveals to Mike that he knew about his grandmother's death and gave him work because he thought it was what Mike wanted to help keep his mind off (which Mike admits was what he wanted). It's less the actions and words (though they help), and more the tone of voice and the looks on Harvey's face. Though Mike may not have noticed, being stoned, it's clear that Harvey considers Mike as close a friend as Donna.

* A small one when Donna gives Mike advice on how to break up with Rachel. There's a really really strong undertone that Donna's statements come from a painful and personal past experience.... and given the context, it's probably referring to the attraction she has to Harvey which crosses it over into a small TearJerker.

* The look on Louis' face when he receives a tennis ball used by one of his favorite tennis stars is truly something to behold, as it's one of the few (if not only) moments where you see the ManipulativeBastard actively trying to hold back tears.

* In "Meet the New Boss", Louis goes through a... well, I suppose [[JerkassWoobie his version]] of a HeroicBSOD, as he's discovered that his underlings think that he makes them do all of his work. Harvey, upon hearing this, is stunned, as he believes that Louis (while a dick) is probably the hardest-working lawyer at the firm. They reminisce about their days as "grunts" before Harvey remarks ("and I'm only going to say this once, so you better enjoy it") that Louis is "the man".

* "Inside Track". At the start of the episode, Harvey derides Mike for wanting to celebrate with a high five, calling it basically a crude gesture especially in a public place. Later in the episode when Harvey's indy ploy works, Mike asks for a fist bump. Harvey glances into the office before smirking slightly and doing a quick fist bump.
