Its pretty clear why these memories are on Jessicas mind as shes about to head into Leonard Baileys retrial.
After all, her own client raised that possibility!
If Jim leaves, the firm will lose all its other clients.

Jessica knows she should handle this problem herself, but she cant shes fighting for another mans life.
Gina Torres conveys perfectly Jessicas internal conflict over the situation.
So, she tells Harvey to handle it, which only makes matters worse.
Meanwhile, Rachel and Jessica decide to put Leonard on the stand to let him to tell his story.
Its a big moment for Rachel because Jessica allows her, a law student, to question him.
Harvey puts a stop to Sutter spreading rumors about their attorney-client relationship gone bad.
His confession is enough to convince the judge to free Leonard Bailey.
Its an amazing moment for Rachel and Jessica, who was proud of how she stuck with the case.
After the trial, Robert grateful for everything Jessicas done for Rachel suggests a merger.
After all, PSL is likely done since Jessica missed the meeting.
But Jessica turns him down because she refuses to go back to seeing her name last.
This scene affirmed why I love Jessica and Roberts relationship.
Each scene between Gina Torres and Wendell Pierce conveys a long history of respect between these two characters.
That trial isnt the only win for PSL.
Its a banner day for our favorite lawyers.
Yes, you read that right.
She points outtheyfailed Jessica.
Jessicas decision to leave isnt surprising.
At some point, she lost herself in this constant struggle for the firm and is understandably exhausted.
Shes leaving the firm for herself.
Ill miss Jessica, but this feels completely earned.
Lets be honest, its not going to go well.
