As their conversation begins, a man wonders if Harper believes Malloy. “I’ve never seen anything like it,” she says. Malloy is trying to convince Harper of his innocence, insisting that people are trying to ruin him as he’s accused of killing his girlfriend.
As it turns out, Mea is representing Malloy in the trials. As things get intense between the two, Mea insists to Malloy that she’s his attorney and not his friend. A reporter then claims that someone has been covering up evidence in this case as Malloy and Mea continuously get close.
