Scott Reed is a recurring character in the second and fourth seasons of 13 Reasons Why. He is portrayed by Brandon Butler. Scott attended Liberty High School and was a baseball player in the varsity team, Liberty Tigers. Throughout the second season, Scott is seen hanging out and spending time with Bryce and the other baseball jocks.
Being a jock, Scott is thought of as a bully, as shown when Tyler Down singled him out in court along with Bryce and Montgomery de la Cruz when talking about the nature of bullying at Liberty High School. However, Scott is more considerate than his fellow teammates, as shown when he apologized for bumping into Clay Jensen and helped pick up his books. He thinks his association with Bryce is what leads others to automatically assume he’s a bully or rapist. Scott can be a cruel and careless person at times; When it is mentioned that a girl should give consent when having sex, Scott jokingly says "Does a scream count?"[1]. He made a gun sign at Alex, who just got back to school for the first time since trying to shoot himself, and later made fun of him on his birthday. Scott also took part in taking Sheri to the Clubhouse, making her smoke and making her uncomfortable when she wanted to leave[2].
Other than that, Scott isn't as bad of a person as he seemed to be in the first place. When he bumps into Clay, he apologizes and helps Clay pick up his books[3]. He doesn't want Clay to get hurt during a school fight, and isn't a rapist; he just likes playing baseball. He decides that it's time to stop protecting Bryce, and helps the others with trying to get the Polaroids from Monty back.
