EXCLUSIVE: Piper Perabo Confronts an Informant on 'Notorious,' and Gets More Than She Bargained For

Notorious is getting juicier by the episode.

ABC’s freshman drama goes behind the scenes of the complicated relationship between criminal lawyer Jake Gregorian (Daniel Sunjata) and cable news producer Julia George (Piper Perabo) as they manipulate the headlines for their own personal agendas.

EXCLUSIVE: Ryan Guzman Talks Pre-'Notorious' Crush on Co-Star Piper Perabo

On Thursday’s episode, Julia confronts Levi (Ramon De Ocampo), the best friend and colleague of prime suspect Oscar Keaton (Kevin Zegers), the billionaire who is facing charges of murdering his wife Sarah (Dilshad Vadsaria).

In ET’s exclusive sneak peek, Julia interrogates Levi about why he sent her three incriminating photos, including one of Jake with Oscar’s wife in bed. When Levi fails to give her an answer, she threatens him, alleging that he’s trying to buy out his boss and pal Oscar. With Oscar currently behind bars, Levi’s the acting interim CEO of a multi-million dollar company. Surely, there’s incentive to get his friend out of the picture for good?

“I sent you three photos, the third one was a picture of Sarah with your friend, Jake Gregorian. If you run a story on me, I’ll take a copy of that photo to one of your competitors,” Levi fires back. “It’s your call.” Ice cold!

"Aimee's up there, I think," Guzman said, contemplating the list of women he's kissed on screen.

When asked to confirm that he and Teegarden have a kissing scene at some point in the near future, Guzman admitted, "There's a kiss in there, for sure."
