Mike's mentor Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht) will do everything he can to help Mike get off the hook even though he knows that he is guilty. Meanwhile, Rachel will be devastated with the whole thing especially since they were supposed to get married already. She will also need to face her family, including her lawyer father, Robert Zane (guest star Wendell Pierce).
But above everything else, the biggest question asked by many is who turned Mike in. As reported by Realty Today, a clip was released showing a number of characters suspected to be behind the arrest. It led fans to come up with their own speculations.
Showrunner Aaron Korsh was careful not divulge any details on who the whistleblower is but he did mention during an interview that it could be anyone. "It could have been a friend, foe, a neutral party or someone who has never even met Mike," said Korsh.
Whoever sold out Mike, fans will have to stay tuned to find out.
