Scotty Valens is playing lottery every day (- You waste your money on the daily numbers? - Every morning. - Five bucks down the drain. - I don't got dependents. I can afford it.).
He is really excited by the idea of a serial killer cold case (A serial job don't get you hopped up just a little, boss?).
He understands perfectly the hitchhiker victim (I could win ten grand over there, I still ain't paying a cabbie 300 bucks to drive me home.).
He forced an innocent into a confession (threatening his kid) and is pissed when Stillman and Lilly wants to continue the investigation (Don't take a tone / I was just about to say that to you.) but eventually goes to apologize to the Russian at the end.
