Raymond stands by Rusty, accepting his case despite the reservations of the others, but now his ability to defend him is seriously questioned.
His health is rapidly deteriorating, evident from intense nightmares and dramatic cliffhangers where doctors struggle to wake him up.

That being said, with only two episodes left, it will be interesting to see how the story unfolds. One thing is certain: Raymond’s sudden downfall introduces uncertainty and heightens anxiety about the outcome of the trial.
