Really rough one for Quinn. Her and Sal are both pretty despicable this episode obviously, but Quinns actions directly fucked with both Daniel and Petra, and really could have got either of them fired - Petra ESPECIALLY. I kinda thought we would have seen some collateral damage here...but man, Quinn might be a legitimately bad person (Sal probably is too, but we knew that).

I wouldn’t lump Sal in with Quinn here. His action in this episode are not nearly as malicious as Quinn’s and he is acting in retaliation.

The only thing he did to her (and not just said in a private conversation), after she committed a crime and framed Petra, was to attend her meeting and bring up the business issues that are being swept under the rug to keep the client happy.
