The first half of "Suits" season 5 left fans shocked at a cliffhanger episode when Patrick J. Adams' Mike was arrested for fraud.
Mike may have been ready to put the fraudster life he led behind him and start fresh with Rachel (Meghan Markle) but it was too late as someone revealed his big secret.
In the upcoming episode 11, titled "Blowback," for the second half of season 5, it is expected to show how Rachel and Mike's relationship will turn out amidst the latter's arrest.
Showrunner Aaron Korsh also spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about Mike's fate when the show returns and it appears that fans will have to wait a little longer before they will find out the answer.
The showrunner added that the person "could have been a friend, foe, a neutral party or someone who has never even met Mike."
Speculations are abuzz as to who exposed Mike's big secret and they include Rachel's ex, Logan (Brendan Hines); Mike's ex, Claire (Troian Bellisario); Rachel's parents; Father Sam Walker (Scott Michael Campbell); and even Donna (Sarah Rafferty).
However, most of the speculations are pointing to Rachel's parents, Robert and Laura Zane, played by Wendell Pierce and Megan Gallagher, respectively.
Robert and Laura are speculated to have tipped off the authorities to stop Rachel and Mike from getting married.
Meanwhile, Korsh also revealed that the upcoming second half of the season will give more focus on Mike, especially that he has been arrested. What happened to him will clearly affect the law firm.
As for Mike's relationship with Rachel, Korsh admitted that "it remains to be seen how they will respond to it. It will give them an opportunity to understand conflict but also to be there for each other," Korsh said in the report from The Hollywood Reporter.
The premiere for "Suits" season 5B has yet to be announced, but it is expected to air sometime in January or February next year.
