At the same time, while dropping Chuck off at work, Wendy notices Pete Decker heading into Chuck's office. She asks Chuck about this, but he refuses to comment. Inside, Bryan lays out details of the plea deal. Decker lays out a flurry of information about Axe's persona, way of thinking, and how he acquires information. While others quickly become disinterested in hearing Decker sing this man's praises, Chuck pushes to hear more. Chuck asks for direct evidence of the link between Bobby Axelrod and the insider trading that occurred regarding Pepsum Pharmaceuticals, but Decker says he can’t prove anything. He claims that the tip for the trade came from "Dollar Bill" Stearn, one of Axe Capital's employees and top performers.

Noticing Tara rushing into the bathroom after appearing so suspicious, Kate follows her and abruptly snatches her cell phone, catching her texting Hall. Chuck is upset over the personal betrayal but decides to use it to his advantage, and instructs Tara to arrange an in person meeting with Hall. But Hall, sensing something wrong, never shows up.
