Id isolate it in a 2 liter pop bottle let it finish fruiting and dump it. The fruits are safe to eat

I'd toss it outside. Fruiting it will only let that contam spread spores, ruining future grows. Not worth it for the couple grams you're gonna get from that cake.

As long as your fruits look good, they should be fine. The better idea is to just let them go though. It's really not much anyway.

He is implying it's bruising from contact. I've no idea if that's true or not though it looks like it could be, but I thought the bruising on my cakes was trich and holy shit did it look green to me but it was bruising and they fruited very well.

That is mold. Get that thing out ASAP. Bruising certainly isn't purple, nor is it raised above the substrate like that.
You can tell bruising apart from mold due to Myc will change color. Mold will look sandy/grainy and be raised off the surface as you can see in the picture above.
Edit: You can either fruit it outside assuming you have the proper conditions, or you can pick the pins/mushrooms and bury it outside in hopes of it producing a small patch in the future. Regardless, that cake is done and should be removed from your growing area. You don't need mold spores everywhere compromising future grows.
-------------------- There isn't a trail too long or too wide.
