Suits L.A.
Warning: SPOILERS forSuits LAseason 1, episode 9, “Bat Signal.
The past few episodes have certainly put theSuits LAcastthrough the wringer.
He hasnt completely tipped his hand just yet.
But one subtle movie reference suggests just how antagonistic he may turn out to be.
The entire movie is based on the 1985 memoirWiseguy, albeit with some of the names changed.

And, much as it does in the book, Billys joke quickly results in his murder.
Thats because the joke is legitimately demeaning.
The implications supposed to be that Tommys still as low-class as he was when he was shining shoes.
Suits LA follows Ted Black, a former federal prosecutor who now represents influential clients in Los Angeles. As his law firm faces a critical juncture, Ted must navigate the challenges of a role he once disdained, balancing moral dilemmas with the demands of high-stakes legal battles.
However, it potentially gets worse when considering the facts of the case.
Stuart refers to Isaac as a friend, but Isaac has shown himself to be something far different.
He takes far too much glee in the fact that hes already arrested Bowie before informing Stuart about it.
But Elizabeth could at least be described as a prosecutor who did her job, no matter the cost.
Its hard to judge her for that when the shows protagonist recently blew up a car without consequence.
And if thats true, he has the capacity to kill again.
After all, Ted can give Stuart fair advice on how prosecutors tend to think.
Especially prosecutors who find it acceptable to go outside the law.
Topping things off with a villain as corrupt as Pellegrini would only make sense at this point.
