In an interview with “Good Hang“, a podcast hosted by Amy Poehler, the actor shared the honest and direct message his manager sent him shortly after the episode in which he appeared aired.
When asked by Poehler if he had ever acted in the iconic series, Scott confirmed: “I was on Law & Order once,” he said.
The actor admitted he didn’t remember much about his work in the 16th season episode titled “America, Inc,” which aired in 2006, but he hadn’t forgotten his agent’s reaction, who was not at all impressed with a particular scene in which his character is working in a supermarket while being interrogated by the police.
“I remember my agent at the time calling me right after the scene aired and saying: ‘You don’t know how to handle those vegetables. You weren’t doing anything,'” he recalled.
The scene in question features Dennis Farina as Detective Joe Fontana and Jesse L. Martin as Detective Ed Green. Pablo Schreiber also appeared in the episode: “Pablo Schreiber and I went to court together, and he ended up being found guilty, and I was the red herring, I guess,” Scott remembered.
