The scandal has become more about the issue of the truth –and who gets to tell it.

Neil admits that he’d like to give up on this job, but his associate advises against it. He claims the Phil Jones case is no longer just about the reputation of one man or one university –it’s about the integrity of truth and who gets to tell it. Neil and Sam attempt to convey this importance to Phil, noting it’s not about whether or not he is telling the truth, but whether they believe he is.
