I think this is a good evolution for Louis. Like you guys mention, he's been fucking up since Season 1, trying to get approval, being the little bitch. Now, he's got nothing left to lose. Sheila is out. His Harvard pride is gone now that he is a criminal multiple times over. He is a great lawyer, his but his big downfalls were all from being a bitch. Now he is stone cold. He doesn't want to be friends with anybody. He will be a name partner and his bullshit will fall to the wayside. I think he will be just as capable and worthy as Harvey is to be a name partner. I'm hoping to see Louis rule with an iron fist!
