History TearJerker / Suits

* "Break Point": Louis' cat Bruno dying and ending up having to be put down (off-screen) due to an untreatable illness. Anyone who has or had a cat will understand why he looks like his world has crashed. Also, Donna getting fired. The look on her face is just heartbreaking. [[LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt Even though we know she'll end up coming back one way or another]], it's still heartbreaking.
* Mike's grandma dying. His face when Rachel tells him is just devastating. Doubly so because he was finally making enough money to be able to properly take care of her and was happily preparing the apartment he bought for her when Rachel comes to see him.

* When Louis tries to befriend Mike, after Harvey had been an unforgiving jerk to him since the season 2 finale, with Harvey's blessing. By the episode's end, Harvey forgives Mike and Mike goes back to Harvey at the first opportunity... after he ''just'' told Louis he would join him. You can just see Louis's heart breaking as he walks up holding a cake, which he ends up throwing away. It had "Welcome to Team Litt" written on it. Sniffle.

* Louis... just Louis in the scene in episode 4x04 where he tells Harvey that Mike getting Forstman to fund his plan because of something that Louis told him, when he went to stick it to him. The conversation is heartbreaking and Louis is nearly in tears:

--> '''Harvey:''' Are you kidding me? After that speech, if you hadn't done this, I'd be kicking you out. And for the record, you're not the only one who got more family out of this deal.* "25th Hour" is full of these, but a special mention has to go out to the revelation that the verdict about Mike would have been not guilty.

* In "Character and Fitness" when Tara breaks up with Louis over voicemail. Louis is devastated and breaks down. Doubles as a moment of [[{{Heartwarming/Suits}} heartwarming]] as Rachael puts her arms around Louis and comforts him.

* Harvey's Mother passing away, just as they were finally in a good place after years of estrangement.

* "Break Point": Louis' cat Bruno dying and ending up having to be put down (off-screen gratefully) due to an untreatable illness. Anyone who has or had a cat will understand why he looks like his world has crashed. Also, Donna getting fired. The look on her face is just heartbreaking. [[LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt Even though we know she'll end up coming back one way or another]], it's still heartbreaking.

* Happens again to Louis. To be the hero, he had to break the law. The law comes biting back and the only way to save himself would be to frame Harvey. While Louis can be slimy, he's not ''that'' slimy yet of course going to prison for a fairly significant felony and destroying his life is obviously not the most thrilling option either.
* The flashback to young Michael coming down the stairs to find his grandma waiting to break the news of his parents dying in a car crash.

--> '''Harvey:''' Are you kidding me? After that speech, if you hadn't done this, I'd be kicking you out. And for the record, you're not the only one who got more family out of this deal.

* Sean Cahill is usually shown as a major JerkAss, a cold federal agent ready to screw anyone over to get the job done. In "Spain," he shows up at Harvey's office and, showing true humanity, reveals why he wants Sutter taken down so badly. Cahill's mother had been a teacher all her life, hard-working and always dreamed of a trip to Spain when she retired. But just as she was about to, the teacher's union invested in one of Sutter's funds which led to it being bankrupted.
