Kat’s friend, Jenna, offers to let her come stay with her for a while after everything with Scott. She also asks Kat about pursuing the Meg story, but Kat says it’s gotten more complicated. When she goes outside, Scott is waiting for her in the parking lot. He offers to give her the notes back and exclusive access to his knowledge from the investigation through his job if she drops the charges against him. Kat counters that she’ll drop the charges if he quits his job and gets some help.
Ron’s deposit through the escrow account went through for what he thinks will be his new house, the Mandeville property. He insists on having his landscaper out to review the property, so Meg takes him there. When another agent shows up with a client, Meg must think on her feet and pretends she’s passing keys to that agent. She emphasizes that her client really likes his privacy and gives the agent $200 to get lunch. The agent agrees to take their client to see the other houses first and will be back in two hours. Meg is worried that won’t be enough time, but it works out, as Ron wraps up his time with the house inside of the next hour.
