"Suits" Season 5 will be back with all-new drama and cases in its midseason premiere episode titled, "Blowback." As seen on the midseason finale episode of the legal drama, Mike (Patrick J. Adams) was arrested for fraud just as when he resigned from the firm and was about to get married to Rachel (Meghan Markle).
Fans then were left with one question: "Who turned Mike in?" Showrunner Aaron Korsh addressed this question in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter (via IB Times). According to Korsh, he and the rest of the team did not really place any significance as to who turned Mike in at first.
"The bigger question is: What are we going to do about it?" Korsh said.
However, Korsh was overwhelmed by the number of messages he has received and the number of people asking him about who turned Mike in. Thus, the showrunner, revealed that this question will be addressed in the remaining episodes of "Suits" Season 5.
The publication, however, noted that Korsh has seemingly hinted that Rachel's parents could have been behind the arrest. The outlet noted that Rachel came from a well-to-do family and Mike's case could have been such a disgrace for the family.
Meanwhile, in a separate interview with Yahoo! TV, Korsh revealed that the second half of "Suits" Season 5 will be a game-changer for everyone. Korsh noted that Mike's arrest is bound to affect everyone in the firm, including Harvey (Gabriel Macht).
"So Mike's arrest is definitely gonna change the trajectory of what would've happened had Mike not been arrested, had they just moved on. We're still working that out," he said.
"Suits" Season 5 Episode 11 titled, "Blowback" is expected to premiere on Jan. 2016.
