Throughout the Series
Season Two
In The Defense Rests, it's revealed he stopped giving Sophia cases because she is dating a cop. Trying to get on his good side, Jake manages to bond with him over betting on simple things. He excuses himself to go to the bathroom where Jake catches him with cocaine. He is then arrested for drug use.
In Sabotage, it turns out that he had been the one behind all the "bad luck" Jake has been facing. He manages to capture Jake and tie him up inside his ice cream truck. Hoytsman makes Jake confess on camera to framing him for everything he did.
In the middle of talking to Jake, he hears a voice from outside the truck. Thinking it's a sale, he opens the window only to be pulled out by Rosa.
Trivia
- According to Jake's research, Hoytsman's interests include skiing, his terrier, Atlantic City, the film 12 Years a Slave, and nature.
- The ice cream truck he's using was lent to him by his previous client because he likes him for getting him off of a "strangle-and-mangle".
