Hahaha he went to Israel!

Damn this is getting more complicated. I guess harvey and mike will come up with a master plan to get the SEC off both their backs and they will bro out and rejoin each other.

Two birds with one stone? Gets Harvey and Mike.

Is that what happened? I was a bit lost on that ending. All's well that ends well, I suppose.
And hey - no shocking twists or deals with Satan next episode (from what I can see)!
Sidwell probably has no idea he was cut out of the deal. Money guy just told him Mike had secured his funding, not the terms.

Ah. Okay, that's more along the lines of what I expected.

Yeah there's no way Sidwell was told the details of the deal. But could still blow up. Mike will say I didn't take the money because he wanted to cut you out so he tricked you into taking it. Sidwell will say you should have told me that. And there it goes.

Hmm sounded like he told Sidwell about it, but i will watch it again, once it hits on-demand just to make sure.
Edit: hmm looks like i probably mis-heard :/, still will go back to watch it tho.
Yeah I didn't understand the ending. I had to rewatch it a couple of times and I still don't understand it fully.
So does Sidwell know about the deal and that's why he wanted to get a tombstone with Mike's name on it or some shit because Mike a solid dude or not? I was confused as hell.

Yep also expecting this
especially considering the synopsis that was posted on the last page
Forstman realizes what Mike was planning to do (pretend like he had Forstman's money without ever accepting the deal) since they're both 'sneaky little shits'.
Forstman goes to Sidwell and tells him that Mike came to Forstman to be the financial backer and that Forstman had agreed.
Sidwell was excited to find this out and found it strange that Mike hadn't accepted the deal so Sidwell accepts it for Mike.
Mike sets up a meeting with Forstman that Mike doesn't want to go ahead with the deal since he doesn't want to backstab Sodwell.
Forstman tells Mike that it's too late and that Sidwell has accepted the deal for him.
And all of this happened without Sidwell knowing or being told about the arrangement of getting left out.
So now Mike is screwed (officially) since his deal with the Devil has been accepted.
tl;dr - Deal was officially accepted, Sidwell is still being left out, Mike is fucked.

Don't think so. Afterall, there has to be something dramatic for the midseason cliffhanger.

Things noticed in the promo:
Logan/Rachel kiss.
Was that Louis giving Donna a necklace?
Mike and Harvey seem playfully competitive again which is nice.

I took the end to mean that Forstman cut Sidwell back into the deal
He originally wrote him out because he wasn't sure who he was but then when talking to Mike he realised who he was working with and as Mike works for Sidwell I assumed he included them in again

The start where Harvey tells Mike off was great
Also,
"Sounds like you are being a dickhead about this whole thing so I would say Yes"
lol

That's how I interpreted it. Sidwell surely must have known there was a reason Mike hadn't taken the money already.
So then maybe Mike is getting cut out of the deal instead, lol.
Mike does all the work, gets the deal done, and then he's written out and the tombstone is for him.
I miss that show. Last I checked it's coming August 20th.

Yeah there is no way Sidwell would accept a deal where he gets cut out
Forstman must have been impressed with what Mike had done and altered he conditions
That or Sidwell is a fucking idiot in which case he doesnt deserve the money

Assuming Sidwell was read into the deal and he's not getting cut out, what makes sense is Mike's controlling interest getting cut out of the deal. All the shares are bought under Sidwell's company's name. So the company gets sold for parts instead of saved and Mike gets a hollow victory that makes him feel like shit.
-edit-
Made even worse if Logan Sanders decides to become the good guy investor instead but loses the takeover battle.

That would actually be a pretty great twist.

I rewatched it and am still unclear as to what happened there. It does kind of sound like Sidwell accepted him as a partner meaning he must have seen the terms. So yeah either Mike is getting cut out or they're all buds now? Or the sleaze-ball is just waiting for another opportunity to screw em.

that's what happened. Sidwell isn't cut out of the deal.
Forstman told Mike he was watching his maneuvers the past few days and liked that he was getting into business with a sneaky little shit just like him. He went to Sidwell and put the deal through for him and instead of letting him wallow on about whether to fuck over Sidwell or not.

This I feel like is what will happen

I think so too. Harvey warned Mike about Fortsman fucking him over.
I watched the pilot of it, but never watched the rest. Maybe time to do that.

Yeah he's got to be the bad guy. After it happens Mike will go back to Harvey afterwards.
It's definitely worth watching, at least give it a few episodes.

I just don't buy that Sidwell would screw Mike over. Yeah he is about that money but he seems like a good guy overall. And he seems to like Mike.

But money.
-Pyromaniac-

I guess. In the end, everyone on this show is an asshole other than maybe Donna so I would not be surprised. Sidwell would look super dick-ish if mike told him after being screwed over that he didn't take the money so HE wouldn't get screwed over. Whoops!
Welcome to the big leagues I guess. Or we're all wrong.

He's running a hedge fund. It all comes down to money.

I can't see it ending well for someone, my gut says Mike gets screwed over.
-Pyromaniac-

Well the synopsis I posted a page ago does say "mike is reeling after the takeover battle" so obviously something happens that gets him going.
