"Errors and Omissions" is the second episode of the American legal comedy-drama Suits, which premiered on USA Network in the United States on June 30, 2011. The episode was written by Sean Jablonski and was directed by John Stuart Scott. The series revolves around two lawyers who, between the two of them, have only one law degree.

Plot

Judge Donald Pearl insists that Harvey Specter had an affair with his wife and refuses to judge Harvey's case fairly. Meanwhile, Louis Litt reveals that Mike failed his drug test and uses it to blackmail him into smoking marijuana to gain a client.

Production

Casting

All six of the prominent cast members return in the episode, including Gabriel Macht, Patrick J. Adams, Rick Hoffman, Meghan Markle, Sarah Rafferty, and Gina Torres as Harvey Specter, Mike Ross, Louis Litt, Rachel Zane, Donna Paulsen, and Jessica Pearson respectively.

Filming

The episode was filmed in Toronto as opposed to the Pilot, which was filmed in New York City and is the only episode to be filmed on location.[1] This led to the set having to be rebuilt resulting in minor inconsistency in the set design.[2]

Critical reception
