In court, Tae Yong does his best to persuade the judge. But his claims of backdoor dealings in the judicial system put him in jeopardy. Without any evidence to back his claims, he risks facing disciplinary action by the Korean Bar Association. However, with high hopes, he awaits the court's decision on the Osung trucker murder case. Meanwhile, Sam Soo questions Tae Yong if he's running in the election.

Tae Yong has Chief Justice Jo Ki Soo right where he wants him. The video of him parading gets leaked, and Kim Hyung Choon has only one solution to the problem. Before anything happens to Jo Ki Soo, he gets instructed to have all judges destroy all pertinent documents and erase their computers. Meanwhile, Jang Yoon Suk sees his opportunity and starts making deals, even with Tae Yong that goes against Sam Soo and Yoo Kyung.
