* MagnificentBastard: [[AmoralAttorney Emily Ryan]] is EADA Michael Cutter's old law professor and mentor and head of the Hudson University Innocence Coalition, delighting at the idea of pushing and testing him to see how far he'll push back. Pushing for a new trial for convicted hate murderer Cedric Stuber, Ryan is successful with evidence and a new witness suggesting the victim's husband is responsible. Upon Cutter exposing one of Ryan's students as bribing the drug dealer for false testimony—which Ryan wasn't aware she did—and exposing Ryan's competitive barter system pertaining to grades and recommendation letters, Ryan seeks a complete dismissal by exposing that [[AwfulTruth Cutter never got his undergraduate degree and therefore is not a lawyer]]. Agreeing to talk deal when [=McCoy=] asks her to, Ryan then when Cutter threatens worse action and consequences against Stuber encourages Stuber to take a 25 year sentence to avoid going to prison for life.
