At the Metro Court, Lucy meets with Scott to sign the official documents signing over 51 percent of Deception over to Tracy. Laura interrupts them needed to talk to Scott. She drags him off and asks what compelled him to help Cyrus. Scott says it’s not as if he broke Cyrus out, and he made it clear to him that he’s not on retainer for him and this was a one-shot deal. She asks if he really thinks Cyrus deserves to be released. Scott knows Lee would be disappointed in him for defending Cyrus, just like she is, but this was a high-profile case and he has to keep his practice going. She again asks if he thinks Cyrus deserves to be released. Scott says he did seem to be a different guy at the hearing, but he also saw him earlier and he looked pretty healthy too. Laura gets a text and has to run off.
