USA Network is once again putting two of its strongest series back-to-back this summer, with Suits set to premiere its sixth season on July 13 leading into the previously announced second season premiere of Mr. Robot.

The network confirmed Friday that Suits will air at 9 p.m. EST, followed by Mr. Robot at 10 p.m. The two shows were also paired together last summer when they premiered their fifth and first seasons, respectively.

USA also released a synopsis of the forthcoming season of Suits, which will find Patrick J. Adams' character Mike Ross starting a two-year prison sentence:

After signing a plea deal to spare his colleagues at Pearson Specter Litt, Mike will be confronted with the harsh realities of prison life as he starts his two-year sentence. Meanwhile, the once bustling Pearson Specter Litt offices are a ghost town — the partners have defected, leaving Harvey, Jessica, Louis, Donna and Rachel to pick up the pieces. But the firm’s troubles are far from over, and they will have to deal with the fallout from Mike’s crime before they can even begin to rebuild.
