Suits: Not Just a Pretty Face (2015)
Season 4, Episode 16
9/10
great closer for a wobbly season
1 August 2016
About a century ago, as people become accustomed to such new-fangled gadgets as the coin-operated vending machine, cons and rubes alike discovered a flaw in the original design -- you could insert a coin attached to a string with bubble gum, trigger the mechanism, and still get your coin back.

Look, SUITS is a hi-class hit and I am a big fan. But in Season 4 for the first time I felt the writers were using that old coin trick with the bubblegum and string.

The core idea of building a major primetime law show based on a lawyer who never wrote the bar or went to law school is ... brilliant.

But to have to bring back this same story so many times in a single season as a "plot trigger" is a Guiness Record that the writers should not need or want.

Great close to the season -- a sweet and fun and well-written episode.
