Warning: SPOILERS for the Fits LA episode “Bat Sign” are forward!
Effectively, Fits followers, it’s time to say goodbye to Harvey Specter… once more. It appeared like we’d solely have to do that as soon as when Fits ended its nine-season run in 2019, however then it was introduced that Gabriel Macht would reprise his character in three episodes of Fits LA. The third and remaining of these appearances simply completed airing on the 2025 TV schedule, with Harvey showing prominently in each the previous and current day storylines of “Bat Sign.” Within the midst of this, we additionally lastly acquired some updates about what’s occurred to Harvey since Fits wrapped up over half a decade in the past.
To make a protracted story, “Bat Sign” noticed crime boss John Pellegrini being sentenced to 25 years in jail and eligible for parole after 15. It initially was going a life sentence, however the decide modified his thoughts after Pellegrini gave a “heartfelt” assertion after his responsible verdict was learn, adopted by the racketeering expenses being tossed out. The latter occurred (after fellow Fits alum Daniel Hardman testified) as a result of Harvey was compelled to go on the stand and inform the courtroom that he’d given Ted Black, his buddies, monetary recordsdata in regards to the Pellegrini case that Ted in any other case wouldn’t have identified about.
Then within the current day, following Ted studying from Harvey that Pellegrini was being not noted of jail early, the 2 enacted an elaborate plan with Troy Winbush’s Kevin that ended with Pellegrini being put again behind bars and the person below the crime boss’ make use of who killed Eddie Black, Ted’s brother, residing the remainder of his life in concern of being killed whereas in witness safety. You may stream the episode along with your Peacock subscription if you would like the complete context for each storylines.
Now again to Harvey Specter. There’s no query that the most important reveal about his post-Fits life from “Bat Sign” is that he’s a father! Viewers realized this when Harvey acquired a textual content from somebody in his cellphone labeled as “My Boy” saying, “Daddy, when are you going to name?” Harvey confirmed the existence of his son to Ted in direction of the top of the episode, however he stopped wanting revealing the child’s title.
If I needed to guess, Harvey’s son might be named Michael after Patrick J. Adams’ Mike Ross given how shut these two turned within the unique Fits. Whether or not that’s the case or not, I’m simply glad to listen to that he and Sarah Rafferty’s Donna Paulsen, who acquired married within the Fits collection finale, are actually dad and mom! Though Gabriel Macht has solid doubt on showing in Fits LA once more, if the exhibits finally ends up working a number of seasons, hopefully he’ll change his thoughts and are available again with Rafferty in tow for at the very least one episode so we will see Harvey and Donna with their son.
The opposite massive factor revealed about current day Harvey Specter was that his youthful brother Marcus died of most cancers just a few years in the past. This comes shut to 2 years after the dying of Billy Miller, who performed Marcus on Fits, on the age of 43. Harvey introduced up Marcus to ask Ted if coping with the dying of a brother will get any simpler, to which Stephen Amell’s character answered, “Is determined by the day.” Harvey and Ted parted on good phrases in “Bat Sign,” so even when we by no means see Gabriel Macht on the present once more, I’d prefer to assume they’ll proceed staying in contact.
There are 4 episodes left to go in Fits LA’s debut season, although there’s no phrase but on if NBC will renew it for Season 2. The excellent news for now could be that we’re not carried out seeing Fits characters on the spinoff, as Rick Hoffman is on deck to reprise Louis Litt someday within the coming weeks.
