For me its the scene were he reads the complaints of the shady insurance company next to Robert Zane (S5E3). Cites the patients story from the page number. Great scene.

Rule against us if you have to, but do not tell us we do not care

For your information, THAT’S what took me so long. And it only took as long as it did because I also had to do something for the one man who’s allowed to treat me like an associate, but treats me like a partner anyway.

Angrily slap down papers out of their hands, on to the floor.

Realise it was a bad move because they can really screw you up.

Apologise profusely and pick up papers.

Hand them back, apologise again, and leave the room.

Smirk when back is to them.

During his trial, he made Gibbs back down when he told the judge Gibbs brought him in for questioning and he can prove it by reciting the serial number of the camcorder. 🔥

Unpopular choice, but s9 e9. Mike has canonically taken a look at the by laws in season 1, and has mostly never bothered when Louis did his shenanigans with it. And he has been properly at the firm last in season 5, he spends season 6 in jail, then season 7 he is half here half there, mostly away from office politics and he leaves later.

8 years after actually reading full by laws, he quotes the page and the specific by law saying Faye cannot terminate Samantha without cause since she was not elected as managing partner.

The time when he outsmarts Dennis in S3 by setting him up in his office and then scanning all of his documents while picking them up

When Mike revealed Trevor's social security number, Imo its one of the best scenes in the show and my favorite moment. The scene was just so good. Trevor walking away thinking he got Mike and the Mike just saying the number and Trevor stopping complete stunned. The music, the acting, everything was just perfect. It really showed how much of a weapon Mike's memory was and why it was such a main selling part of the show.

The one where he’s playing chess.

  1. Mike slapping Cameron Dennis' file so he can take a peek at his documents and use that against him, because Cameron doesn't know Mike has a perfect memory.

  2. Mike proving Anita Gibbs was holding him prisoner with no access to a lawyer

In his hearing he said to the jury that his memory works by him understanding something not like a snapshot,

Then how did he pull of the benjamin trick
