Delayed Justice

Sam Soo gets caught on camera acting as a slave for Mayor Kang, and the other news agencies capitalize on it. With his reputation smashed, Sam Soo cleans his desk and leaves. Meanwhile, Tae Yong scouts out the S University grad reporter, who also happens to be Sam Soo. They agree to work together on the possible life-changing Samjung three-man murder retrial case and bring down those responsible.

Tae Yong sticks to his promise and does his best to represent Jung Myung Hee in court. Later, he declines the job offer from the Law Offices of Daeseok and goes all-in with the Samjung three-man murder case. Sam Soo, who was still unsure of his position, turns down Moon Joo Hyung's offer and decides to join Tae Yong. Meanwhile, Tae Yong meets with Kim Byung Dae regarding a settlement offer he mentioned before.

The three wrongly accused men in the Samjung three-man murder case decide not to sign on the settlement, putting everyone in a predicament. However, Mayor Kang and Head Prosecutor Jang Yoon Suk discover a loophole thanks to Supreme Court Justice Jo Ki Soo. Meanwhile, Tae Yong finds out through an article that the case got granted a retrial, while Sam Soo chucks frozen tuna in Busan.

After listening to Hwang Min Kyung's advice, Tae Yong and Sam Soo set off to track down the real culprits of the Samjung three-man murder case. Tae Yong sends Sam Soo to see Sang Hyun, who remembers what one of the culprits looks like, but returns in tears. However, he decides to write an article through his sadness in order to lure the culprits and empty people's pockets.

Tae Yong shines in the courtroom once again, and the Samjung three-man murder case gets overturned. Before getting taken away in handcuffs, Lee Cheol Gyu sincerely apologizes to the three people wrongly accused, along with the victim at her gravesite. Tae Yong keeps things casual to respect Cheol Gyu's confession. However, Sam Soo can't wait to get a piece of the pie.
