Take it from me: the partners don't want to hear that some uppity associate is blaming something on one of them. Keep your primary supervisor in the loop about what is going on, but don't -- at this point -- badmouth anyone to snooping partner.
But start documenting stuff about bad partner via email. And print them out.
