Using the word as your picture (as in "strategem" and "probity" is like using the word to define the word! (-2)
"Scrupulous" when associated with deceit and honesty needs morals or ethis attached to it. Your sentence for this word does not demonstrate that you understand it! i.e. was the performance bad, good, detailed, ethical, moral... (-1)
