Explicații Wikipedia: Billy confronts Brittany who tells him that she did not have a choice but to testify. Michelle suspects that Cooperman had puppeteered Corey's responses, thereby making sure that he himself would be called to the stand. Billy grills Cooperman regarding his knowledge of Karl Stoltz, which he states can be proved by Lucy's testimony. After vehement denials, Cooperman seems to lose touch with his surroundings, before collapsing due to a stroke. Since the defense is unable to cross-examine Cooperman, his testimony is considered inadmissible. Callie puts Brittany on the stand and makes her admit that she helped Billy blackmail a cop. Both parties make their closing arguments. Cooperman, who has been paralyzed by his stroke, tries in vain to convince Michelle to help him end his own life. Brittany attempts to talk to Billy, but he ignores her, and Patty chases her away. The jury returns after deliberations with a verdict that Borns Tech was responsible for and tried to cover up Ryan Larson's death, and awards damages to the tune of $162.1 million. The defense team tries to negotiate with Billy for a lower settlement, and to avoid admitting guilt, in return for paying up immediately and waiving all rights to appeals. Corey admits to Billy that Ryan died in an accident while disposing of illegal fuel the company was not supposed to have. Given this admission, Billy settles for $50 million paid immediately. Billy, who has also secretly recorded Corey's admission, turns the recording over to the FBI. Michelle reveals that Cooperman is being asked to retire, and fires Callie, who is revealed to have been behind Corey implicating Cooperman in his testimony. Letts watches on as the FBI raids Borns Tech, while Corey is arrested as he is about to leave the country. Billy goes to the hospital to visit Cooperman, who reveals that Rachel's death was truly an accident: the one they were trying to kill was Billy.
