[Music]

tonight Walter

[Music]

[Music]

ah this is nice isn't it nice leisurely

stroll with a pretty lady on my heart

just glad I let you out of our run

that's more yes I am very glad but

mostly glad to be with you such a

charmer

you know we have a very special date

coming up do we well I know it's the

anniversary of our first date that was

not nice I'm sorry you're just very cute

when you're befuddled

okay I accept that apology so as I was

saying why don't we do something special

I like the sound of that

right hey isn't the play tomorrow the

murderer who was just granted parole

four months ago he's out with his own

autobiography people love to read about

true crime his release was big news

there's a real fascination with the

psychology of murder but I know a lot of

people who are gonna be triggered by

this are you alright

I knew you were second chair in his

murder trial this can't be easy for you

I'm fine but Paulina on the other hand

is not coping and the district attorney

cannot afford to be distracted by this

the media has not been nice to her it's

true I have to get to the office do you

want to right I'll walk from here

really Dean mr. Morel hadn't seen you

since I got out don't worry I didn't

take personally and this stuff you said

about me at the parole hearing well I

meant every word you still belong behind

bars state of Georgia doesn't agree with

you it seems he coming to my book

signing tonight that's your bet I mean

you look after him don't worry I didn't

say anything bad about you

I can't say the same for your friend

Paulina I doubt you're on a first-name

basis with the district attorney

she and I are like two sides of the same

coin she's a lot more like me than she

wants to admit I doubt she'd see it that

way if you see her she bring her along

tonight my fans would be thrilled to

watch the sparks flying

it was really good to see you take care

of yourself

I don't know if ensure he doesn't scare

me but when I saw him I got the feeling

that something was gonna happen what

kind of something

that's sure but nothing good well your

instincts are on the money but I can't

stop Clayton Morel from doing whatever

he's gonna do I know that he's on parole

yes sir reporting regularly and he's

subject to surprise visits and he has a

neighbor that watches his every move

what's her fare David you're right

so I'm settling yeah I agree I talked to

Polina yeah I called her but she was in

the medium I think I'm gonna stop by the

office after this it's a good idea she

could use a friend a friend like you

yep best kind friend what kind of that

kind of friend it helps you eat the food

you have not eaten very quickly this is

make so don't you eat it you ask some

advice

always say I was gonna buy making the

present like a ring you're gonna by

making a rake as an example doodles a

ring isn't an example are you asking

Megan to marry you oh whoa whoa whoa

sure you see why I'm asking you just buy

a woman a ring I know it's like any

other piece of jewelry no no it's not a

woman sees a ring box and she

automatically assumes that's a proposal

okay how about a bracelet then okay so

what's the occasion

hmm her birthday

what is it I want to get her something -

I said birthday I meant because they're

just ours right okay because Dave you

know what gushin work stuff to get - you

know we can talk later what to think

sure yeah where you going I drove

yes you did yes you did this whole work

thing

tell me preoccupied this is real good

man

yes mr. mayor we are fully engaged on

the graben case and I promise the

missing recording will be located by the

end of the day thank you it's just a bad

time Oh Hayley not at all

you remember Alex Mathers of course hi

Alex it was like only yesterday we were

newbies together I look at you now

second-in-command to the DA right on

schedule if I remember Alex if you could

get on that problem you were discussing

of course thank you it's nice to see you

Hayley meet you this seems a bit

stressful around here I don't know

what's happening I always run such a

tight ship but all of a sudden there's

all these missing files missing meetings

things have gone haywire I don't know

what's going on I think you're a bit

distracted distracted by what I assume

you know about Clayton Rahl's book I was

sent an advanced copy if you can believe

it along with an invitation to the local

book signing so if you read it

absolutely not well I know I've been a

bit thrown by the whole thing so I can

only imagine how you must be feeling

Hayley I know your intentions are good

but I don't need a therapist what I need

is to get my office in order and Clayton

morale out of my head all right well you

let me know if you need any help talking

things through you know I will

[Music]

not only is convicted murderer

wife-killer Clayton Morel get parole

after just one parole hearing which I

have never seen in the history of

paroles mirela is now practically

parading with a new book yes you heard

me

I need book details his life including

the murder of his wife Tamara and that's

what I called blood money someone wanted

to say hello

Amelia nice to see you again I'm so glad

you kept up your work with Sabrina I

know how difficult these last few months

have been for you honestly I don't know

what I would have done without Sabrina

we're always here for you thank you a

book that Clayton wrote about my

sister's murder is affecting me more

than I thought well understandably

there's something else is either I saw

the poster for the book in the

background is a phase my parents gave to

my sister on her wedding day to Clayton

that must have been a shock he moved

back into the house where he killed my

sister and now I find out he still has

Tamara's things I mean I admit I kind of

lost it what happened I went to the

house the spare key was in the same

place tomorrow kept it behind the

mailbox I walk up to the house something

stops me I can almost see my sister

sitting on the courts just warning me

not to go in I turned to leave and just

then Clayton drove up I asked him for

the vase he refused he said he was gonna

file a restraining order and that I'd

been stalking the house ever since he

got out how'd you know I hadn't been

back in 10 years if I hadn't seen the

poster I wouldn't have remembered the

vase it's a family heirloom it means

nothing to him but everything to me

should have known better I'm a teacher

if this complaint sticks I could lose my

job

I know some people at Atlanta PD I'll

see what I can find out but why do I get

the feeling this is not a social call I

don't suppose you could tell me if

someone's filed a restraining order

what's the name

Clayton rel is he harassing someone

because I'll have to report that to his

parole officer he claims he's the one

being harassed

oh it's if you solve anything yes

actually he filed a complaint against

him really a Lincoln isn't that his ex

sister-in-law yes what can we do about

it

well you know how this goes only the

complainant can rescind the complaint I

know it was just hoping for any other

alternative

thanks for coming with me and reading

this but I would rather talk to Clayton

Maral about dropping the complaint

against Amelia in a public setting you

know I wasn't gonna you come alone where

is everybody I thought this would be a

big draw yeah me too even if it was a

morbid curiosity excuse me

it's the book signing cancelled yes

unfortunately I'm afraid the author

isn't able to make it but would you like

a copy it is very well-written humanizes

the whole thing no thanks I'm very

familiar with the story are you Haley

Dean right you were part of the

prosecution at Clayton's trial yes

that's right I'm Frank Berlin I was

there

I've known Clayton since university

since college right I'm from up north

came down for second year and just

stayed you mean sophomore year right yes

I can't ever seem to adapt to talking

about it like that

interesting how you're still friends

with Clayton Morrell I know it doesn't

make me popular but I always believed

Clayton when he told me it was an

accident that he shot tomorrow because

he thought she was a intruder he's my

friend friends stand by one another role

he's lucky to have you in his life I'm

not sure he feels the same way or he

wouldn't have blown off this book

signing did he give you a reason I can't

reach him on this phone it's not

surprising

Haley Dean what are you doing here Derek

Robinson do you still represent Clayton

right not that it's any of your business

but yes why does he need an attorney

because of people like you who refused

to let him live in peace

Clayton served his time he was released

he has rights like everyone else

including the right to privacy I'd

rather not talk to him on its home turf

but it doesn't appear to be a choice you

really think you can get clean him

around and listen to reason

no but I owe it to Amelia to try she's

been through enough already I think she

was the one watching the house I

believed her when she denied it there's

a car in the driveway well maybe he and

his wife have two cars and they went

somewhere together somewhere other than

the book signing

maybe he blew it off doesn't strike me

as the kind of guy that keeps his word

true but Clayton Morel is a nurse assist

I can't believe he would miss the

opportunity to soak up all this public

attention something's not right

[Music]

Craig Morrell who looks ahead

[Music]

yeah we knocked on the door with no one

answered I looked in the window and saw

the body and that's what we called 9-1-1

and you were here to talk to the victim

about a restraining order I'm gonna be

here most of the night so can you both

come down to the station and make an

official statement first thing tomorrow

of course have you talked to Walter

Faraday who's he he's the neighbor

across the street he has a one-man

neighborhood watch I've got officers

canvassing why is he of interest he was

the witness in the Clayton World trial

10 years ago but he never took a stand

polina was concerned about his testimony

could backfire he had a history of

alcohol abuse and he could have been

discredited and you think mr. Faraday

might have been motivated to take the

law into his own hands

I don't know that Walters a killer but

he stopped drinking after the trial and

if anyone saw anything he did well I

think that everyone knew something might

happen with Clayton we're all getting

out of prison after only 10 years but I

don't think that anyone thought he'd be

the one to end up dead that certainly

didn't this is going to be big news the

chief has already called the mayor and

they want this solved as quickly as

possible

you found anything yet no no murder

weapon so far no sign of a break-in

so someone he knew Oh somebody let in I

haven't been able to reach his wife

Naomi forensics is doing a full sweep so

far all we have is a partial shoe print

that was found by the body it's strange

that the killer would leave a shoe print

behind in nothing else well it's pretty

clearly a homicide have a click he was

stabbed several times I'll be able to

get a better idea of the exact weapon

once I've done the autopsy the district

attorney just pulled up okay

visit rosie dead yes

murdered yes where is he are you here as

the district attorney what else would I

be here as someone with unresolved

feelings for the victim I don't care for

your tone Hayley Polina everyone knows

your history with Clayton ro we've been

very distracted at the office and some

people might see him in his new book as

the reason why this might be one crime

scene you shouldn't be at

[Music]

I'll make sure she gets them okay thanks

hutch

[Music]

cross every T dot every I I it's

important got you

[Music]

okay I think that'll do it thanks to you

both any leads no witnesses so far that

I'm neighbor you mentioned Walter

Faraday he hasn't been home

I've got regular patrols on the street

and forensics is still in the house so

we'll catch him when he gets back what

about the wife Naomi morale I haven't

spoken to her yet apparently she was out

of town in this on her way back now I'm

auntie Jonah's good timing

tell me that you have something time of

death was last night around 8:00 p.m.

give or take an hour on either side he

was stabbed with what is probably an

ordinary kitchen knife crime of

opportunity

maybe there was six stab wounds the

first one was to the heart and would

have killed him almost immediately

subsequent five wounds were inflicted

postmortem

Wow that implies both planning and rage

revenge kill him

quite possibly Raimondi what about that

partial shoe print you mentioned they're

running it now as of this moment it is

the key piece of evidence that we need

to tie someone other than the wife to

the scene of the crime they must have a

long list of suspects too long Hayley

what's your insight given your history

with the victim I mean I I think the

earlier release of Clayton Morrell took

a lot of people by surprise

now what about Amelia Lincoln she

admitted to having an altercation with

victim and he was convinced that she was

stalking him I can't tonight a motive

she was understandably upset that her

sister's killer was paroled but I don't

see her as a killer maybe the complaint

against there was the last straw

detective Montgomery thank you

Naomi Morel is on her way in I get 10

messages from you people saying nothing

I get home to find my house swarming

with cops I can't even go inside and all

anyone will say is you have to talk to

detective Montgomery so detective Here I

am against my better judgment what is

going on mrs. Morel I am sorry for the

secrecy but I wanted to speak to you in

person about your husband

whatever it is Clayton didn't do it I'll

go straight to the press if you don't

let him go I'm afraid that's not the

issue I'm so sorry to tell you but your

husband has passed away he's dead how we

believe he was killed murdered

but do you know anyone who might have

been angry with him yes the

establishment for one the police the

district attorney you name it when was

the last time you spoke to your husband

I don't know a couple of days I was at a

friend's house and make it how long were

you gone

I was at a friend's house and Meghan how

long have you gone are you asking me for

an alibi we just want to be sure that we

have all the facts I left on Thursday

and came back today

did your husband mention any plans that

he had while you were gone

visitors to the house meetings know if

you want to know who did this look a

little closer to your own house than

mine

I can't put my finger on it but Naomi

morale definitely wasn't being

completely honest you think she knows

who the killer yes

you know maybe but I didn't even get the

sense that she was upset

you always say people grieve in

different ways this was more calculating

like instead of grieving she was

planning

that's ominous but then again who would

marry a man convicted of killing his

first wife maybe she's just like her

husband lacking empathy could explain

her non reaction to the news of her

husband's death oh that's scary maybe

she killed him

Monty talked to her friend in Macon who

corroborated her alibi yeah well you

don't buy it

facts are facts all I have is a feeling

that she's not being completely honest

like monkeys right this case is big news

price is just gotta complicate things

no no all over the place Derek Haley

Julian the good guys hmm I know better

than to jump from one sinking ship to

the next how are you holding up holding

up Oh Clayton huh he was a client now

he's no longer client but I don't want

to pretend we were friends but he didn't

deserve to die some would argue neither

did his first wife he did his time he

deserved a second chance I'm sorry for

your loss

no you aren't and if I were you I'd be

very careful who I'm seen with in the

coming days uh-huh

what is that supposed to mean sound like

a threat I was thinking the same thing

I'm gonna go check on Paulina alright

you know where I'll be when you're done

if you're here to see Paulina she's

really busy today oh I bet I'll just pop

in and say hello well please make it

quick we really need to get this office

under control and now that Clayton Noel

is no longer such a distraction maybe

things will get back to normal around

here

you know Alex whatever we thought about

Clayton morale he's the victim now and

this office is going to have to

prosecute his killer of course in the

meantime we have other cases that need

our attention

I swear I had this month's Case Files

organized and now I can't find them

anywhere maybe you should consider

taking a few days off impossible Polina

I think you need to deal with what's

just happened

what is there to deal with he's dead

it's over Hina what is it that you want

to hear hailey that I'm glad that he

died

part of me is well relieved is a better

word and a bit sorry that my mistake at

trial is only fixed because he died why

don't we go somewhere and talk about

this hailey I appreciate your concern

and you know that I love you but I don't

have time to talk about something that's

already over and done with if you change

your mind I won't

I don't know Finch sir I just really

worried about Paulina she hasn't been

the same since Clayton Morel was at

least maybe now she could really move up

top so what's this all about I'm Naomi

Morel wife of Clayton Morrell

my husband was brutally murdered in our

home yesterday and I'm here to tell you

I know who killed him just breathe up up

eclis name Amelia this has to be about

the complaint this is gonna ruin and

ruin his life

can we stop it I don't think so the

person who killed my husband is the

District Attorney of Atlanta Paulina

directly on

[Music]

my news alerts are full and they'll be

statement it's the only thing anybody's

talking about Monty said her phone has

been ringing off the hook

this isn't going to make solving this

case any easier then we go to the press

she doesn't trust the police she must

not realize the consequences of going

public with an unsubstantiated claim

like that unless she does mrs. Brower I

understand how you must be feeling you

mean that I went away for a few days and

came back to find my husband murdered

and the cops oblivious to the most

obvious suspect I assure you we are

doing everything that we can to bring

his killer to justice I told you to look

inside your own house you didn't take me

seriously it's been less than 48 hours

these investigations need time and they

need confidentiality and I have to ask

you for your patience

well you conspire to cover it up you

mean I hope you understand how damaging

your comments will be to this

investigation because you honestly would

have investigated the district attorney

if I didn't say anything publicly if

that's where the evidence leads yes

forgive me if I don't believe you can

you tell me why you think mr. Accio

killed your husband

he has Clayton thought that she would

why did he say that

[Music]

because Clayton said that she would why

did you say that because he knew

something obviously clean said if

anything were to ever happen to him look

first at Paulina and the proof would be

in his book

[Music]

did paulina threaten Clinton not that I

ever saw and even if she did it's hardly

proof of murder especially coming from

someone like Paulina venture you work

with her is it possible no I mean she

hasn't been herself since clean when I

got out of jail but who would be I

called the publisher mr. Morel wrote

this book while he was incarcerated

which can only mean that whatever proof

he put in here existed before he got out

it would have to be from ten years ago I

was at that trial and the contact

between them was never one-on-one

dude Paulina visit him in prison what

did I know that they've asked me to take

some time off from work can you believe

it I can't actually hmm well I will be

there tomorrow I have a civic duty and

I'm not gonna let some slander it's

nonsense keep me from doing it good you

know I think you're the only one

sticking by me it's amazing how a whiff

of scandal and supposed friends just

running do you know what Naomi I was

talking about no I never read that trash

he published I'm sure he just painted me

as the bad guy to make himself look more

sympathetic then there's nothing else

not at all

very

[Music]

did you find anything in the book no I

put a call to the publisher to see if

anything was left out if it was libelous

time rather than cut let me guess they

referred you to their legal team of

course and they weren't much help I

might have a way of finding out

selling like hotcakes barely keep it

stocked would you like a copy this time

no I came to talk to you oh how can I

help

Naomi is under the impression that her

husband names his murderer in there are

you talking about the district attorney

visiting Clayton in prison she visited

him right before his parole hearing

apparently mr. Accio told Clayton that

if he got parole she'd see to it that he

wished he's still safe on the inside are

you sure that's what Clayton told me and

the publisher wasn't going to put it in

the book they said it was libel and they

didn't want to get sued they were right

now it's hearsay

Clayton knew who wanted to kill him he

was trying to protect himself

the law was never on his side was it I

verified with the prism that you did

indeed visit Clayton morale the day

before his parole hearing yes what did

you say to him I told him the world

didn't want him back I didn't threaten

him I just told him the truth you

shouldn't have gone alone I would have

gone with you it was something I wanted

to do now but now there's no witness to

what was said and the publisher has

Clayton morels original first draft

where he describes your visit to the

prison and the direct threat you made

against his life which is now in

evidence it's hearsay

you'll never stand up in court but if

the press gets wind of it well luckily

I'm not being tried by the court of

public opinion and I assume detective

you're still following the evidence and

pursuing legitimate suspects of course

well if you don't mind

Paulina's right I can't waste more time

following up on Naomi's grudges I'm on

my way to talk to Amelia Lincoln I know

she's the most likely suspect but I

really hope it isn't her she's been

avoiding my calls

she's like you I've been preoccupied

with Naomi's accusations a chat with

Amelia is overdue yeah there you go

[Music]

Emelia this is detective Montgomery

we've been avoiding her calls I have

nothing to say about Clayton morale you

know mr. morale father complaint against

you he claimed that you were watching

his house he also claimed that you

assaulted him over a property that was

legally his I didn't assault him I may

have pushed him he wouldn't listen to me

I wanted my sister's vase where were you

Friday night between 7:00 and 9:00 p.m.

here it was parent-teacher night I had

several conferences what do you teach

Jim and remedial math I tend to have

longer conferences for my remedial

students the principal can confirm it so

if you have an alibi why were you

avoiding her calls I am tired of talking

about Clayton tired of him haunting my

dreams he's finally dead Haley I just

want to move on

gonna move on guys let's go oh good

morning hey this is a surprise

you forgot forgot what today's the

anniversary of our first date what today

yes today remember retirement dinner

Chesley oh oh oh no Jonas I didn't

realize what you meant so what did you

think I meant to be that wasn't her

first date that was just the first time

we met and then we had a quiet drink

together you told me all about you I

told you all about me

I didn't consider that our first date

but I guess I can see why you would so

um let me just let me try to clear my

schedule

oh it's Finch shirt hey Finch you're on

speaker guess who just got home Walter

Farraday if anyone can help us get

Polina out of the spotlight it'll be him

I'll call you from the car it's fine go

do what you need to do we can have our

anniversary on our other first date

thank you sure

well no I interrupted your anniversary

date not really

Jonas and I have a different idea of

when our first date actually was how

could you not know what your first date

was okay so was your first date with

Megan speed dating or food-truck

that's easy speed date date what's it

really I mean yes you met there but you

hadn't intended to spend time together

okay okay I see your point

well then food-truck but by that

rationale I didn't agree to meet Megan

you know she tracked me down an ambush

because I'm so cute right but you could

make the case that the next time you

decided to get together that was your

first official date this is almost more

complicated enough dating is very

complicated

maybe you overthinking it highly likely

mmm-hmm mr. Farraday this is fincher

garland from the DA's office and I'm

Haley Dean I remember you from Clayton's

trial ten years ago I never blamed mr.

Rossi oh but I saw him breaking his own

window trying to make it look like he

was shooting an intruder and not his

wife I know you did he should have gone

away for life not ten measly years yeah

we were hoping that maybe you saw

something I just got back I left Friday

morning

I've never won anything in my life until

last week when I won a free fishing trip

they gave me this souvenir sign a nice

don't you think

does anyone come to visit mr. Morelle

since he's been out of prison sure and

I've written it all down you kept her

record

I couldn't let what happened last time

happen again can we see it I don't know

if any of it means anything

[Music]

did you notice anyone watching the

morale house almost every day since he

got out of prison the same person can

you describe this person better than

that I have photos can we see him

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

where did you get these what sir 30

you've been stalking Clayton I'm not

stalking watching waiting for him to

meet the smallest mistake so I could

throw him back in jail the onus isn't on

you you might not think it was but I

know it was Paulina I knew you were

struggling with this but I didn't know

how I wasn't at Clayton Morales house

the night he died an anonymous source

that they had information that would put

Clayton morale back in jail asked to

meet me in a parking lot I was there

from 7:30 to almost nine o'clock

who was the source I don't know they

never showed a man or a woman

I don't know that either they put a note

under my door do still have AIDS are you

interrogating me no I'm sorry I'm just

trying to find out what happened so I

can help did you already tell the police

this I stopped here on my way then you

need to give me right there because they

need to hear this straight from me

okay this is just getting worse and

worse for Paulina I know what about her

alibi we recovered the note from her

house typed and printed off a standard

laser printer fingerprints only Paulinus

the GPS on her car and her phone verify

that she was in that parking lot at

least her car and her phone were in that

parking lot what do you say it's a

five-minute walk through a park to

clayton well straight there are no

cameras no way to verify that she didn't

leave her car no way to verify that she

did it's a shaky alibi Haley Pauline I

could have easily typed that note

herself we may have to consider the

possibility that Paulina had a hand and

play tomorrow's death I know the coffin

you saying that but it isn't true I will

be able to keep the evidence against

Pauline quiet for very long

well we can't give up I know she's

innocent an innocent person doesn't need

to lie Haley she should have been

straight with us from the beginning

I'll keep people posted

this is breaking my heart it has to be a

misunderstanding I know it looks bad

Haley but it's all just circumstantial

maybe Walter Faraday saw someone else

too

that's true isn't it strange that he

went on a fishing trip right before

Clayton Morrow was murdered in his own

home tiny just a little too perfect and

if somebody knew that Walter had the

habit of spying on the Morell house

they'd want him out of the way it did

say he won that trip look into it to see

what I can find

I'm sorry I snapped at you I know that

you're just trying to help it's

forgotten I have been in such a state I

don't think I realized how serious my

actions have been I mean what was I

thinking watching him like that you

weren't thinking but you also didn't

expect Clinton morale would end up a

victim Haley can I confess something to

you well if you want to I don't think

the mayor's gonna stick by me

I've already been sidelined no public

appearances no court I'm not allowed to

speak to the press on my BF or the

behalf of the DA's office if even a

whiff of this gets out I'm afraid I'm

done for I'll do everything I can to

keep that from happening that means the

world to me are you gonna be okay

I think so thank you

[Music]

hey Monty hey Mouse Paulina shaken but

resolved hey didn't go in through Walter

Faraday's Journal he pretty much listed

every coming and going from the morale

house from the moment they moved back in

anything of interest one thing maybe he

wrote down a big fight between Naomi and

Clayton the day before he died the day

they only left for a friend's house yeah

must have been before Walter left for

his fishing trip Wow

these pictures show a very different

dynamic than I would have expected what

do you mean well look at the body

language she's leaning in intimidating

him yeah I see Clayton was shrinking

away submissive she was definitely the

aggressor in this fight I wonder if she

was the aggressor in the relationship

yeah but Naomi wasn't making oh she was

gone then came back then was gone again

it's only an hour and a half on a bad

day

let me call Macon police and see if they

can get a more detailed itinerary out of

Naomi's friend

get me Macon Police

[Music]

I don't think you had any clients today

I just had to get my mind off the whole

Clayton Morel thing you want to talk I

know Sabrina how do I know when I'm

listening to my bias and so do the truth

you don't but instincts have a way of

circumventing emotions so you can frame

them any way you want to but until you

resolve the truth of what your instincts

are telling you they won't leave you

alone you know it's true I just worry

that I have been fooled by friendship

before all the more reason why it

wouldn't happen again

[Music]

yes what are you doing here

okay saltine hope you're not trying to

influence the investigation I'm just

here to observe and consult one asks I

don't bend the law to suit anyone

what was that all about bald wounds run

deep I expect wasn't that Clayton morels

lawyer

I lost the trial to Paulina yeah and

then I suppose he'll be here to

represent me Oh me

my guess is he won't let her say a word

can you verify your whereabouts the

night that Clayton Morel was killed my

client has already given you that

information

we have since received a witness

statement claiming that he saw mrs.

Morel and her house the dated her

husband died which witness is more

credible a friend with no ties to my

clients husband or the drunk well across

the street with the chip on his shoulder

mrs. morels friend and Macon has been

questioned by the local police and is

unable to account for mrs. morels

whereabouts between noon and 10:00 p.m.

the night her husband was killed my

client has nothing to say at this time

was your marriage happy don't answer

that

we have evidence that you and your

husband argued in the days leading up to

his death can you tell me what about

don't answer that either this is a

fishing expedition M unless you have

hard evidence linking my client to the

death of her husband she has nothing

more to tell you are you sure that your

client doesn't want to explain why she

lied about her alibi what were you doing

between noon and 10:00 p.m. you already

know who's guilty this is all a waste of

everyone's time no not everyone's

paid by the hour after all or down here

I didn't turn it the way I'd hoped no

the only time she wanted to say

something was about her friend blowing

her alibi and then her reaction was more

annoyed than anything else wait and

we're all didn't have any real assets he

owned a house and the contents and he

had some money but I think that man we

didn't already have access to whatever

the reason she came back to the house

that day is what she doesn't want us to

know as it stands we may never find out

I'll get a warrant for the phone in the

car GPS Tarek won't give you access

without one well that's a lab back with

the analysis of the shoe print found at

the scene it's from a unisex sneaker but

there was too little of it to determine

a size maybe Naomi's there's no she

liked it at the house or anywhere in

your bio I'll see if I can get a warrant

for any homies car you know this could

take pulling off the table I've never

seen her wear a sneaker in my life

well if she'll submit to a voluntary

search it would go a long way in

clearing her name unless she would

[Music]

what you're doing here oh I just stopped

by to see Pauline on my way to the

office and you know I never turn down a

free coffee and he ran over it and we'll

have you here if I want to do something

special with me you know like your date

just a guy should I wear like regular

clothes or a suit you would voluntarily

wear a suit it's been known to happen so

what's your preference well I don't

think my preference is really what

you're looking for but I would say that

you should probably dress at the same

level as Megan does that help maybe what

is this special date I'm dying of

curiosity

to know everything about my life you

don't need to tell me everything but

somehow you always do maybe I should

stop telling you everything let's just

meet

Oh No

Paulina it's going to be fine don't say

anything

I thought this was over I thought so too

but then we found this

is that murder weapon who's in Paulina's

car

[Music]

no DNA evidence other than the blood and

no fingerprints found on the hilt of the

knife that you found him pulling his car

but the blood is a match to Clayton

Morrell and the knife is a match to the

ones that killed him I don't know what

to say hailey Monty you can't believe

all this it's not about what I believe

it's about the evidence why would Polina

submit to a surjection ooh the knife was

in her car she would have moved it

that's one of the questions that I'm

going to ask her

well somebody planted it there they're

trying to frame Polina I'm not ruling

that out but I can't rule out pulling it

either has she been charged not yet

Hayley Polina listen to me say nothing I

have nothing to hide Alex thank goodness

you can get me out of here

Hayley you can't be here you're a

civilian I'm consulting in this case

well in that case you should stay to

hear this

hear what out of courtesy for your

position but the DA's office will be

pursuing a charge against you of murder

in the first degree

[Music]

this is a nightmare my job is stripped

my reputation is ruining believes I

believe you and if you want I will

happily represent you aah I want to drag

you down with me then I will find you

the best defense attorney in Atlanta I

don't think it will matter I don't think

there's any coming back from this Hayley

can you think of anyone who would want

to frame you for murder I've been a

prosecutor a long time you know we make

enemies someone's out to get me Hayley I

know how bad this is I'm going to get

you out of this

[Music]

not surprised Alex was named acting da

but I am surprised you turned on Paulina

so quickly Thanks

well it's no secret that he plans rather

for da the next election I knew he was

ambitious but I never pegged him as

ruthless and he was always loyal to

Paulina say is only loyal to himself but

would he kill Clayton Morell just a

frame Paulina that's a bit far-fetched

there's easier ways to discredit her

maybe he's just an opportunist how so

remember that Derek was at the DA's

office the day of the murder you're

thinking that Derek gave Alex a murder

weapon to plant pulling his car so then

you're saying that Derek killed Clayton

Morelli and why friend Paul Eva I don't

know what are you thinking I'm thinking

somebody wanted Clayton larell gone and

Paulina was the best scapegoat Amelia

Lincoln in one fell swoop she would

avenge her sister's murder and framed

the person that she blamed for his early

release but she has an alibi for the

night of the murder true what about the

wife

nailed it no alibi potential motive no

clear evidence of the actual crime

though her DNA is all over the house

because she lived there it's a whole lot

of suspects but nobody actually fits the

crime no one except Polina No

I know how it looks but no you know what

maybe you're onto something earlier

Derek does not come up very well in this

book if I were him I wouldn't want to be

anywhere near Clayton Monroe it's

strange isn't it

so is his reaction come to think of it

reaction to what once he made a comment

about him being paid by the hour and his

reaction made me think that she had hit

a sore spot well his career did take a

hit after losing the trial let me dig

into him to see what I could find

listen to this I met tomorrow my first

year in university she glowed with a

lightness of spirit that felt like a

bomb to my darkness yeah I don't know

Clayton morale very well but does that

sound like him no it doesn't maybe

somebody else wrote this I met Tamara

first year of university not freshman

year of college

I think it was written by someone else

and I think I know who you could tell it

wasn't Clayton

it just isn't his voice it's a bit too

cerebral did you write the book I'm not

supposed to say is it contractual a

ghostwriter doesn't always have to keep

it quiet and in your case the publisher

wanted to sell the myth of Clayton Morel

intellectual I won't ask you anything

you can't answer do ghost writers make

royalties ghost writers get a flat fee

no other percentage so there is no

benefit in staging this stunt to sell

more books if that's what you're asking

was it that obvious it's alright I

understand I know you're friends with

the district attorney and you believe

her when she says she's innocent just

like you believed your friends I could

not believe him

tomorrow was my friend as well

she Clayton and I spent a lot of time

together and whatever people think about

am i new and better I do miss him I miss

them both I'm sorry for your loss

that's kind of you to say

[Music]

hey how's Emilia doing I've been meaning

to check in with her she cancelled her

her treatment

don't you mean she cancelled her

appointment

no her whole treatment she said her

problems are over I tried to get her to

come in anyway but she refused

let's worry some I agree I want to push

her but I feel like the death of Clayton

Morell isn't something that she's

equipped to handle the room maybe I'll

stop by her school on my way home thanks

Haley

keep going over there I love you guys

all right three great guys go for it

okay Haley what are you doing here I

came to say hi it's been a crazy a

couple of days and Sabrina told me that

you canceled your appointment with her

oh it's nothing personal I like Sabrina

I just don't need her anymore

you sound so certain he's dead Haley

gonna realize my anger died with him

well I can't speak for your feelings but

my guess is they were a little more

complicated than that no they aren't I'm

cured that's great

although I think Sabrina would sleep

better at night if she could see that

for herself she's worried about me I've

been going through a lot

she'd want to make sure you're okay I

didn't realize I'll drop by okay I will

set up an appointment for you just to

make sure that she's available all right

thanks Haley

Oh way to catch it okay pick it up let's

do it

there we go hello beautiful

where are you no work why where are you

I'm at the restaurant for our

anniversary

let's look tonight not again after the

first time we met the first date ended

with our first kiss a Chesney's what did

you think our first date was Philly

cheesesteaks remember oh sure but you

were really giving off her friend's vibe

what because I didn't kiss you I didn't

realize the date had to be defined by a

kiss

no and that kiss was the first time I

knew you were interested in me before

then I was only desperately hoping I was

interested in long before that but I can

accept that I guess it's the first

moment I realized you were interested in

me too gonna wait second try to finish

up here and get over Tito no no I want

to do this properly so the anniversary

of our first date our first kiss and the

beginning of our relationship will

hereby be celebrated in two days time

I chose Li's I will put it in my

calendar

[Music]

I can't let you go anywhere by yourself

huh pincher don't start whoever did this

wasn't trying to kill me they just

wanted to scare me off well this is CD

they're scaring me Monty find anything

on the month no fingerprints and it

wasn't from the same set as the knife

that killed Clayton morale Monty is

working on getting video surveillance

and I did not see the license for you

what did you see I was blinded by the

high beams I saw a black SUV that's it

this whole thing has my stomach in knots

what's going on over there

alex is moving into Paulinus office well

he didn't waste any time I can do this

one myself

where's pulling this assistant Oh Alex

fired him

are you still friendly with maintenance

Haley I could lose my job

I'm sorry no you're right I forget I

said anything but I don't know if I want

to keep working at a place that's so

quick to turn on one of its own

I'm gonna make a call here hey it's

Finch need a little favor

Thanks

I promise I'll lock up go ahead save ISA

I can't believe how to give a

cheesesteak for this what we're looking

for get that box that Alex wouldn't let

anyone else hold it had yellow tape look

there we go okay got it

cheese it's a mess so like Alex he was

always very tidy these look like they're

from different kisses they're important

documents so witness statement from a

Thomas Floyd an autonomous Floyd some

missing for weeks but missing before was

ever uploaded to the main server here is

a witness statement for an armed robbery

a hard drive to mash this must be the

full file on this armed robbery this

explains how it managed to disappear off

the mainframe him do you see listen Case

Files the ones that Paulina was being

blamed for Alex was hiding them from her

he was trying to get her furred when

that didn't work he framed her for

murder instead

are you doing in here get out we have to

talk I'm calling security

Oh go ahead be happy so nice what do you

want the truth you were sabotaging

Paulina she sabotaged herself going to

the prison after Clayton Morel was

released obsessively tracking his every

move constantly asking me if there were

any reports about him so instead of

helping her with the issues you thought

you'd do this I misplaced a few files

it's hardly a crime framing her for

murder is you're talking about why was

Derek Robinson here the day Clayton

Morrell was killed it's none of your

business you two plotting against

Paulina

no Alex you're next in line you have

motive and an alibi the night Clayton

Morrell died I was at a birthday dinner

across town I've known you a really long

time Paulina's known you just as long

the Alex I came up through the ranks

with would never keep information about

a murder case secret especially if an

innocent woman could go to prison I

don't know if Paulina did it or not but

Derek did come to see me I said if I

helped him bury a mistake from his past

it makes sure Paulina's day a days were

over now playing the murder weapon and

Paulina's car I didn't ask I didn't want

to know

[Music]

alex is being fully investigated and is

no longer acting da at best he'll be

disbarred at worst he'll be disbarred

and criminally charged for evidence

tampering it's sad to see what ambition

can do to someone he wasn't always like

this what the charges against Paulina

you know they still stand I'm afraid the

chief and the mayor are both very keen

on getting this all wrapped up what

about Derek Robinson pulling didn't

stick the knife in Haley's tired run her

into a cement wall I know that and the

chief knows that too but Paulina is

still the prime suspect and

unfortunately we've gotten a lead on the

SUV the security footage didn't get a

clear view of the license plate and the

tinted out windows made it impossible to

see the driver so we have no idea who

was driving yeah but I've got a car

patrolling your street Haley just in

case thank you I'm gonna see if Paulina

has any insight into all of this good

idea I'm gonna see if I can track down

that violation at Alex mentioned he took

three truck yes

see a bit Alex I don't know what to say

I know it's a shock I brought him up

through the ranks here's my right-hand

guy would never I mean how could he do

something like this to me I guess his

ambition overtook his loyalty I thought

I was losing my mind I just never would

have imagined that Alex would do

something like this I'm so sorry I feel

like such a fool I knew something was

going on but then Clayton Morel got out

of jail and I just couldn't see straight

but you weren't letting things slip you

were still in control I work at least a

small consolation I guess you don't seem

as surprised about Derek

No

[Music]

I actually wondered about Derek but I

didn't want to think he could be so

cruel

[Music]

leading up to Clayton morels trial we

were dating was getting serious actually

I had no idea no one did

I think I just wanted to be sure before

it went public

but then Clayton Morrell wanted to hire

him to defend

had you ever come up across the bench

from him before sure it's not unethical

for opposing counsel to date as long as

you disclose it to your client

[Music]

this wasn't about legal ethics it was

about you

I just couldn't deal with him defending

a monster like Clayton Morel I I didn't

see a future with a man who would do

anything to have a wife murderer set

free you couldn't separate the personal

from the professional not on that case

now I ended the relationship before the

trial began and I broke his heart I

don't think he ever forgave me can you

think of a mistake he made in the past

that he would want to cover up no but

his career really went downhill after

Clayton was convicted he's a changed man

I just I wouldn't put anything past him

what are you frame you for murder

I honestly don't know

but if he killed his client it wasn't

just to get back at me

so the good news is paulina has been

granted bail and she'll be leaving today

she has to wear an ankle monitor but

it's better than Jail I'll swing by from

time to time to check on her to make

sure she's all right

in the meantime I found out that Clayton

Laurel never paid there for his legal

services that explains his reaction when

Monte mentioned building by the hour was

he being blackmailed maybe that's a

violation the dirac wanted us to cover

up see if anyone would know Naomi would

yeah I tried to talk to her

you didn't happen there is one other

person who knows just as much about

Clayton Marella's anyone that's exactly

I don't know exactly what Clayton had

over Derek but whatever it was the

threat of putting it in the book was

enough to keep Derek on as his lawyer I

bet the publisher wouldn't even put it

in the book were there a lot of things

that didn't go in the book they wanted

Clayton to come off as sympathetic

so and everything leading up to the

trial and after it had to frame Clayton

in the most human way I take it that

isn't what she wanted to write it wasn't

my choice but Clayton wanted me to write

the truth he wanted everyone to know

exactly what he'd done that must have

been difficult for you writing about the

murder of one friend by another why are

you asking all of this we're just trying

to get the whole picture you don't think

the district attorney is guilty I work

for the DA's office with high-profile

cases like this we have to make sure all

the avenues explored before we can move

forward of course yes well the only

thing Clayton told me was that he didn't

think Derek was worth paying since he

couldn't win a trial even by

manufacturing evidence manufacturing

evidence could you say more about that

you know I'm a lawyer right I don't have

to say anything to you I noticed you

didn't obtain your own representation

because I have nothing to hide

tell me about the Clayton Royal case ten

years ago what about it we received

information that Clayton Morel was

blackmailing you for free legal services

is that true no did you see how he

blurted his answer out so quickly that's

a tactic not a good one then the reason

for the blackmail was also false

obviously he's shaken now did you go to

Alex Mathers and promised him that you

would get rid of Paulina Durazo if he

would get rid of a mistake for you

did you kill Clayton morale and frame

Polina Durazo no not so obvious that I'm

here it makes sense get rid of the

blackmailer and the woman who broke your

heart all in one fell swoop I swear I

didn't kill anyone

yes Clayton was blackmailing me because

you manufactured evidence when during

his trial yes I'm manufactured evidence

and Clayton's trial a Manchu print out

of the bathroom window I was hoping to

help Clayton's claim that someone had

tried to break in it didn't work

obviously the judge stirred up because

it wasn't processed through the police

lab because if it had been the police

would have realized it was a fake I made

up the whole report staged photographs

every it was stupid and I regret it

I just wanted to be paulina you call me

texting Monta I have a feeling

[Music]

did you threaten Haley in the parking

garage I assumed the track doesn't

belong to you and I have a feeling that

a quick check the credit card statements

would list

a recent vehicle rental I knew that if

she kept poking around she'd find out

about it eventually I thought I could

scare her off and what about the night

Clayton Morel was killed did you try to

scare him off - I don't have an alibi

but I didn't kill him and I didn't frame

Pauline how are you proposing to get rid

of her forty-eighters I was going to

take the stand during her trial and

testify about our relationship I was

going to say that Paulina used me for

information that allowed her to win the

original case that said Clayton to

prison then was that true it could have

been perjury is a crime yeah but it

isn't murder and you can't arrest me for

something that I might have said in the

future

that doesn't solve my problem Naomi

knows everything so I'm still stuck

representing her pro bono you want a

real suspect digging into her deeper

what you'll find will surprise you

halie how'd you know Derrick was the one

who threatened you I didn't know for

sure but it didn't make sense to me that

the real killer would risk proving they

were still out there so Derek's motive

for scaring you off was to keep his

secret under wraps so now I guess we

believe that Derrick wasn't the one that

planted a knife in Pauline his car and

we're still looking for the person who

did when we originally looked into Naomi

morale we didn't look outside of Georgia

so I ran her fingerprints through AFIS

you found something

Naomi Morales real name is melody

Goreski

she lived in Seattle moved here six

years ago changed her name and started

visiting Clayton around in prison why

did she change in him a year after

Clayton was convicted for the murder of

his wife Naomi or melody as she was then

called was arrested for the attempted

murder of her husband I did not see that

one coming so what exactly happened well

not much according to Seattle police her

husband found detailed plans outlining

how she would do it she was arrested

charged and found not guilty

that was a lenient judge she claimed it

was an elaborate prank they divorced and

Russ Reno so when did she start

corresponding with Clayton right after

he was convicted

police found letters from him

encouraging her to free herself of her

husband and come be with him instead she

had a police believed that he was

influencing her to do it I don't know

about that Naomi exhibits many of the

same traits as Clayton lack of empathy

is a key indicator of sociopathic

tendencies she planned on killing one

house

but didn't go through with it maybe

second husband's chime maybe

[Music]

I'm not saying anything until my lawyer

gets here Oh didn't he tell you we know

all about the evidence he manufactured

in your husband's trial and he will no

longer be representing you so let's pick

up where we left off last time Naomi or

should I call you melody I don't know

what you're talking about Naomi this is

going I don't know what you're talking

about

Naomi this is going to go much better

for you if you're honest I know all

about your first husband and your plans

to kill him why didn't you go through

with it

it was just a prank but then your second

husband ends up dead and you have no

alibi you can see why I would find that

coincidence hard to believe it is a

coincidence

I didn't kill clean why did you lie

about where you were that day I lied

because I knew you try to pin this on me

why did you come back to Atlanta last

Friday you can tell me or you can go to

jail fine

I came for a meeting about a reality

show I don't fall a producer wants to

make a reality show about me and my life

as a wife of a murderer Oh was your

husband okay with this hardly it's white

Clayton and I thought he refused to let

me do it he was the star in our family

he didn't want any competition well I

can see why you'd be angry I told him I

was going away for a few days I drove

back I had a meeting with the producer

they took me out for dinner why didn't

you just tell me this they made me sign

an NDA they didn't want anyone copying

their idea before the network greenlit

it now I'm gonna get sued I confirmed

Naomi's alibi the story about the

reality show is true can't believe

anyone would want to watch that it's not

something I'd watch but i've seen the

fascination I bet that producers weren't

too happy that the cops came call it

your on the contrary they were ecstatic

they asked if I would be willing to post

for publicity shots of Naomi being

arrested that's I don't even know what

that is

this means that naomi is no longer a

viable suspect

Selena still hook yeah I'm afraid so

I'm the only outstanding piece of

evidence that we haven't been able to

tire to is the shoe print we've done a

full search of Paulina's home office and

everywhere in between but nothing then

they're still hopeful and that's what I

admire about you Haley you always find a

glimmer of hope

I look for the shoe but if the cops

haven't found it yet I don't know what

I'll be able to do and it may never be

found which at least means it cannot be

linked to Paulina do you ever think that

Pauline is guilty honestly no why have

you I have to admit I've had my moments

there's a lot of evidence piled against

her I got it yeah but you never way but

not once not even when everybody else's

as much as Paulina may have thought

about murder I know her and she would

never break the law no matter how much

she thinks that had failed her I know

that you'll always believe in me the

same way pin shirt please don't tell me

that you're about to be arrested for a

crime you didn't commit

not that I know of but if I was I know

you'd be there too you know assuming you

were innocent you think I have it in me

to be a criminal under the right

circumstances like what like okay say

that all the burritos in Atlanta were

locked up in a high-security vault so

last time it was the food truck now it's

just burritos burritos okay and you

think that I'd be the first person to

break in you'd be absolutely right

desperate times calls for desperate

burrito burglaries I'd be a hero

modern-day Robin Hood protecting the

Atlanta from a burrito lest future why

do I get the feeling that we're gonna

make a detour on the way to my office

you know me too well girl let me think

my burrito you ever think about it oh

hey no I know how we can get there fast

[Music]

hi to have a minute for you always

Amelia didn't show and she's not

answering her phone or responding to my

texts and she didn't call to cancel no

and I'd go make sure she's okay but I

have a client due any minute well why

don't I run by her school right now

thank you I'm sorry to drag you into

this again I'm just worried meet you

hi look at this

well thanks to miss Lincoln she

organized the whole thing it's great way

to teach our students about

sustainability and all the proceeds are

going to charity that's a great idea I'm

missing guns actually who I'm looking

for

oh I'm afraid she isn't here is she all

right

I am Haley Dean I'm a friend of hers

honestly I don't know I haven't been

able to reach her she's been planning

this clothing drive for months I believe

she's missing it put those over by the

shoes shoes a last-minute addition to

the drive miss Lincoln thought we might

as well sell full outfits

[Music]

she was a match to the bloody print that

we found at the scene of Clayton Wells

murder

it's got Amelia's DNA all over it this

is her shoe I sent a car out to her

apartment she isn't there I tried

calling her no answer I don't understand

she was at parent-teacher night she was

I called everyone on the schedule one

parent didn't show up and Amelia didn't

work it in the record that she submitted

to the office do you think she could

have gotten from the school to the Morel

house and back I checked her car's GPS

and it verified the route it did I have

an APB out for Amelia in the meantime I

need to go see the chief this is good

news Haley she was exactly what we need

to exonerate Paulina

I can't tell you how happy I am to be

out of that holding cell they must have

been so scary I'm just glad I'm home

though showering with this ankle

bracelet on it's interesting it

shouldn't be much longer as soon as they

find Amelia breaks my heart Haley I

can't help but feel responsible I can

understand that feeling but you know

none of this is your fault

intellectually yes but if I had just

gone for murder in the first degree and

not manslaughter ten years ago Clayton

Morrell would still be in jail and none

of this would have happened

but tomorrow would still be dead and

Amelia would still be angry but to be

pushed to that extreme so what's next

Monte is working on getting the charges

against you dropped but it will take

some time I can handle that as long as I

know this nightmare is almost over it

was no problem to see you last minute

I'm just glad you called you're still

here last-minute crisis she is supposed

to get married this weekend and

thankfully she called me before she

called it off and you're heading

straight to the wedding oh no um I have

a date with Jonas the anniversary of our

first date oh how exciting well you need

a lift

no I'm going to transcribe my notes

while they're still fresh well have fun

and after everything that's happened

lately you deserve it and I deserve to

live vicariously through you

Sabrina

hello

[Music]

Haley Amelia I think I need your help

[Music]

Jonah's I feel terrible but she came to

me for help so I don't feel like I can

leave that's no big deal

anniversaries are just a number on a

calendar but you wouldn't have a special

treat

Haley every night I get to spend with

you as a special night I'm so lucky you

took the words right out of my mouth why

you want to come in with me on this one

Haley I think my odds of getting the

truth will be better was someone she

trusts in a room anything I can help

thank you

really why didn't you tell us what

happened the night that Clayton when I

was killed

take your time Amelia you remember I

told you about my sister's face

I knew Clayton was never gonna give it

back I mean he went to the trouble of

filing a complaint against me to the

police I knew I was gonna have to steal

it

and parent/teacher and I was the best

cover story I didn't plan it really one

of the parents couldn't make it at the

last minute I had a 45-minute window

I called Clayton's house no one answered

I thought I would drive by and see if he

was home and what about the shoes I

don't like to drive in heels

so I always change into sneakers when I

get into the car so you drove to his

house all the lights were off I snuck up

to the window and took a look inside

how'd she get in my sister Sparky

and I walked in straight into the living

room I stepped in something sticky so I

stopped and keep keep going

there was Clayton

dad blood everywhere and you're certain

that Clayton or I was dead when you

arrived I've never been more certain I

ran back to my car and back to the

school and added your shoes to the

donation pile why didn't you tell anyone

were you afraid you'd be arrested it

sounds crazy but I was happy so happy

that I didn't want whoever killed him to

get caught keeping the secret seemed

like a way of saying thank you for

avenging my sister

and giving Clayton the death he deserved

so you don't think of mr. killer I never

really did I believe her

I believe Amelia's story I have never

known her to hold back on her feelings

and she wears her heart on her sleeve

so you don't think she can lie something

I don't think she can lie more that I'm

convinced she's telling the truth so

what does that do for the case well

Pauline is still on the hook for Clayton

rose murder I don't know where to go

next

have you ever considered that maybe

Paulina didn't know not even for a

moment now do you think maybe you should

picture if I were arrested for murder

would you think for a moment that I

didn't know exactly which is a guy did

it in a heartbeat

maybe you're right

yeah Emilia is being charged with

tampering with the crime scene and

failing to report a crime

but that's it I expected that which

means of course Paulina is still the

prime suspect and the mayor wants action

I have to turn the file over to the DA's

office

I don't know who'll be handling it but I

can't stall any more

I know so that's it then you know you

don't have to pretend with me

honestly Haley I'm terrified I would be

worried if you weren't but I can't have

spent my whole life upholding the law to

give up on it now I'm innocent and I

won't rest until I prove it did you see

Pauline on the news when she said she

wouldn't rest until she proved her

innocence of the matter the cost

I believed her I hope the real killer

was watching Hey where I was then I be

worried so he never told me what

happened with Megan whatever you know

the jewelry the roses

ring any bells right right well it just

hasn't happened yet what are you waiting

for the right moment I guess pincher you

know that

know that you're not telling me the

whole story sorry Haley it's not my

story to tell

alright whatever's going on with you and

Megan I hope it all works out meet you

but you'll be the first to know

this has been fun but I gotta get to a

stakeout DA's office is in a total of

four now that Alex is out everyone's jaw

keen to replace him I want to avoid that

place as much as possible smart tactic I

don't miss those power games I'll walk

you to your car that's very sweet but

I'm gonna go to the book store I need a

distraction so I'll see you tomorrow

hey hey breakfast on you

Paulina Durazo leave a message Paulina

it's Haley I was just going by a

bookstore and wondered if oh that's my

other line I'll call you back

hey Monty what's up Haley have you

talked to Paulina lately I saw her this

afternoon about one o'clock has she been

in contact with you since no I just

tried calling her but there was no

answer what's going on a patrol car

drove by her house on a routine check

and found her ankle monitor cut off she

took off her ankle monitor when you saw

her did she say anything about where she

might go there's no way she's running

what other explanation is there just uh

me let me know if she calls you will do

[Music]

bicha bicha since you're it's me meet me

at Clayton riles house right away

[Music]

Walter it's really deep

[Music]

I need an ambulance he's unconscious but

still breathing

one 157 wood Avenue

[Music]

Frank this isn't you it wasn't me this

girl you recruit crying you know what

killers are like what they do I don't

see that in you you just don't know me I

get it I would do anything for my

friends to Polina are you okay Haley

what are you doing here stop talking I

need to think Frank let her go no let

Hayley go I don't know what you want

with me but it's not shut up

what about Samara the woman you loved

Wade Morrell murdered it must have been

so hard for you to write that book and

have to talk about her murder

again and again and again Clayton lied

to me for years and then he wanted the

book to be full of truth how he planned

it how he enjoyed it how it made him

feel powerful tomorrow didn't deserve

that she just hurt you Tamara glowed

with a lightness of spirit that felt

like a bomb to my darkness

that's how a man in love reads about a

woman Clayton last day we gave what he

wrote that he wasn't laughing when I

stabbed him you killed him to avenge

tomorrow ticket cutting out there

Clayton free and a book out there I just

know what's doing

but you knew enough about crime to know

that you had to have a plan you needed

to get rid of your witnesses and that's

why you sent walls her on a fishing trip

you knew I saw the gun fishing sign in

your window Walter had the same one and

then you needed a fall guy and I was

Paulina care you sent me the note you

lured me to the parking lot that was

close enough to the house to make it

plausible and you played the knife in my

car here on try fight it was a good plan

frankly the thing I don't understand you

were getting away with it why would you

kidnap her oh no don't you see because

of her the clip was only in jail for ten

years he should have been the light

she doesn't deserve to tell the truth

Healy

she isn't disturber date court that

isn't justice

you're not gonna stop so what do you

need next I need to make it look like

Paulina here can't stand the guilt and

what better place to have her commit

suicide and the house where this whole

nightmare started that's the ultimate

poetic justice you really thought this

through except for the part about me I

know I don't want to kill you lately

then don't kill one of us two more two

more makes you a serial killer

two more makes you worse than Clayton

around I just don't know what to do

Billy Gunn yeah

[Music]

Haley you're looking well I feel well

better than I have in a long time

how's Walter Faraday he'll make a full

recovery

ah so relieved to hear it I owe him a

visit

what about Frank I have been assured

that he is going to plead guilty I think

that's a wise move have you talked to

Amelia she's back in therapy and she

will be just fine oh she wanted to thank

us for making good use of her family

base how about you I don't think I

realized how wrapped up I've been in the

past I'm really looking forward to

starting my own practice I could use the

change of pace oh so you're gonna slow

down why not you did that's true you

need some help

not anymore I'm good now

so all's well that ends well

cut a little scary there for a bit I'll

admit it me and Jonas finally have you

big date why are you so interested in my

love life I just want you to be happy

sure you do you sound like you don't

believe me what's been going on the last

few days I told you he's got my story to

tell

[Music]

until this it's our anniversary or I

should say all of our anniversaries this

is the why and we had the first night we

met these are the cheese steaks we ate

the next night we got together that's

the lipstick you are the first time we

kissed Haley this is incredible if

Fincher was right it's the perfect date

Fincher is that why he was asking me all

those weird questions I asked him to

keep it a secret I wanted to create the

perfect night but looks like I didn't

need to I just felt so bad about missing

all of our anniversaries so I thought
