A brief recap of Suits LA season 1 episode 4

Suits LA season 1 episode 4 brought Ted and Erica together to fight for Lester's film with Samantha. With some bluffing, they won, and Lester wouldn't have to take his name away as a producer of his movie. However, in line with Lester's case, they had the trial expedited, which means Ted will have to work harder and quicker to keep Lester from prison.
