1. The short is not an ideal short circuit because whatever you use will have some resistance. 2. The shorted capacitor will discharge some current into the short wire and some into the oscilloscope’s capacitor (probably wire capacitance). 3. Once you remove the short wire, some current will flow back into the capacitor under test to equalize the voltage.
