The promo also depicts how the blame is ultimately shifted to Michelle. The prosecutor blames Michelle for knowing about Conrad's mental illness and yet encouraging him on the path of self-destruction. The synopsis provides a better glimpse at what to expect in the upcoming episode.

It reads:

"The defense hopes the testimony of Dr. Peter Breggin will clinch Michelle’s acquittal. Co struggles with regret. Coco relies on Michelle to maneuver through his suicidal ideations. Michelle continues to be haunted by the past and the verdict is read."

The synopsis clarifies that by the end of the next episode, the verdict of the case will be out. This will make the entire episode very thrilling. It will also be a full-blown courtroom drama, with Michelle's last hopes resting on her doctor Peter Breggin.
