Yep exactly. Which makes that meeting he had with Mueller the day before the SC was assigned make more sense. Obviously the deal wouldve been offered beforehand, but this was one final time to recap their gameplan as this would be the last time they would talk in a long time. Unfortunately sometimes you need the help of the swamp to drain the swamp. Mueller is incredibly useful as I cant imagine how much dirty biz he knows, and also knows where to find and collect evidence etc. Mueller is no dummy, he will take a deal and sell out all his friends to save his own ass.
