Original subtitles

Okay, final episode.

Put your bets on the table. Who did the crime?

And who will do the time?

Oh, it's a husband, obviously.

The best friend.

I think it was the grandson.

Ooh, that's dark. Oh, murders usually are.

I like this darkness on you.

See? You think you know me.

Liam, what are you doing?

Eagle wants you to watch with us. I'm texting with DJ, asking her a question

about a potential case.

Does it involve a man who broke up with his girlfriend then sued her for his

acne breakup? Or is it the one where the woman's cat accidentally called her and

that's how she found out her husband was cheating?

Ah, no. The cat solved that one. Guys, this is a real live murder.

That's an oxymoron. It's a potential wrongful conviction involving a dead

body frozen in the forest.

Since you're not interested. No, no, no. I didn't say stop. I didn't say stop.

I'm sorry for making fun.

Hey, all right.

Look.

I got a call today from an old client of mine asking for help. His name is Dave

Warner. His wife Sharon was just convicted yesterday for the murder of a

woman named Catherine Harris.

Now, this was three months ago.

And this happened in Philly?

Schuylkill County. It's about 90 minutes from here.

Now, Dave believes that Sharon is innocent.

This is what I know so far.

A woman was on an early morning hunt when her dog discovered the body of

Catherine Harris.

Detectives believe that Catherine was killed inside her own cabin and then

dragged and buried nearby.

Were the CSIs able to extract any physical evidence off the body?

I don't have access to any of that information yet. That's why I was

texting PJ to see if she could get her hands on the discovery.

Can you even get evidence off a frozen body? It's easier, actually.

Snow insulates the body, delays the process of decomposition, which is what

breaks down DNA.

A dead body that's frozen could be tested for DNA a lot longer.

Which is good news for Dave Warner and his wife.

If Sharon is actually innocent.

The deceased woman, Catherine, was really well known in her community. And

she was also the former president of the school's parent school coalition.

It's called the PSC. And that's not just any PSC. Penn Park has the most powerful

school organization in the state.

They raise big bucks.

What makes Dave think that his wife didn't do this?

Well, first off, Eli is his wife.

Dave said that Sharon was really, really committed to their kid and she'd never

do anything to separate them.

Apparently, their daughter, Lily, will barely come out of her room. And how did

they point the finger at her in the first place?

David mentioned that their daughter, Lily, had an ongoing conflict with the

victim's daughter, and they're both 15.

Oof, teenage drama.

Double oof, potential mother's revenge.

Now, this is assuming that both Katherine and Sharon's kids go to Penn

Park. Oh, yeah.

So that means that if Sharon is innocent and we do nothing, that family is about

to be destroyed.

I say we start by talking to Sharon.

Liam and I will talk to Dave. Sounds good.

And if we think she's innocent, we go from there.

Hey,

did I wake you? Not at all. I just, uh, couldn't sleep.

I'm sorry. What time did you get in?

About 3 a.m.

One of the guys was sick, so he stayed longer to stock.

But I got the bananas you needed. I saw. Thank you so much.

I made you breakfast. You can eat it up whenever.

You know you don't have to make me breakfast every morning.

I know, but I like to.

Look, I'm not telling you what to do, but you should sleep more.

Okay? Love you.

Love you, too.

We know laws were created to ensure a just society.

But one such law with equality at its core was called the Law of Retaliation.

Otherwise known as... Eli.

Sorry,

what was the question?

Law of Retaliation. Otherwise known as... Lex Talionis.

Lex Talionis.

Also known as... Sarah.

An eye for an eye. An eye...

For an eye makes the whole world blind.

Two people who just don't see very well.

Please provide its original intent and an example, Casey.

To punish someone with the exact same injuries and damages they inflicted on

their victim. So someone cuts my eye out, I cut their eye out. Which

literally used to happen, but as a society, what we deem to be just, it

ebbs and flows, right? When we know better, we do better. Or do we?

Not always.

Why? Because our systems and institutions are made up of humans.

And humans are inherently flawed.

That's right.

All right. That's class.

Thank you so much. We'll pick up here next week.

Professor Ambrose. Yes. Can I talk to you about something? You sure can. Walk

with me. Thank you.

So in terms of an eye for an eye, when does it become criminal?

I'm assuming this is not a hypothetical.

No. Liam brought us another case.

Okay. It started with one teenager bullying the other, and the mother of

the bully teen got involved, and ultimately she was convicted of first

-degree murder.

Yeah.

Hey. Hey. I thought I was meeting you in the dining hall. You were. I thought I'd

walk you over.

Aw, that's so nice.

Um, Casey was just telling me about... Uh, yeah, about, um, how PJ is doing,

which is great.

Yeah. Thank you, by the way, for writing that letter of recommendation for her.

I'm glad I could help. D.C. Court of Appeals is a big deal. It is a big deal.

How's your brother doing?

Marcus is... he's okay.

He's living with us. He's working at the Acme grocery store.

I haven't caught you sneaking around trying to extract evidence lately. I'm

assuming your sleuthing days are over.

Or not.

We're not even sure if there's anything there yet.

Wrongful conviction?

Yes, I didn't say anything. I didn't want to upset you.

Hey, what upset me was you putting yourself in harm's way, not trying to

make sure justice was served, okay?

What's the case?

Like I said, we're not even sure if it's something we want to jump into yet, so I

gotta go to the library and get... Library's the other way. Yeah, it's not

this library. Oh, goodness gracious. Yeah.

Why do they get so weird around me? I mean, I've got like a cool energy,

right?

Right? You know, you have attorney-client privilege and I have

professor-student privilege. Hey, whose side are you on? Mine or theirs?

Yours. Always yours.

Okay, see, it's tricky because this all went down in Schuylkill County, which is

a completely different district.

Don't you just put the docket number into the portal?

Normally, yes, but Google County is not releasing the discovery.

And unfortunately, my contact at the courthouse doesn't know why.

Yet.

However, check your inboxes. I sent over everything I could find online about the

case. Thanks, PJ.

No problem.

Actually, I gotta go, so I'll FaceTime you later. Okay.

Bye.

So... Catherine and Sharon were both Philly residents, but Catherine also had

a cabin in the Schuylkill Mountains, not far from where her body was found.

Right. My GPS pronounced it Schuylkill.

Schuylkill. Schuylkill.

Um,

okay, this lines up with everything Liam said.

Is it the discovery?

Uh, there was a hiccup, but PJ's on it. She sent us everything she could find.

Wow, look at all this. Well done, PJ.

Looks like the transcripts from some of the PSC members who testified at

Sharon's trial.

Here's one from Sherelle Anderson, single working mom, sat on the PSC

board. Sharon and Catherine fought all the time, but still, I never thought it

would end like this. I think I'm just in shock. I can't believe this happened in

our community.

Here's an article from Penn Park's scholarship program highlighting

Sherelle's daughter, Mia.

Oh, wow. She got the Governor's Award for Performing Arts. That's a big deal.

Okay, here's another one from PSC member, Tarek Petrosian.

Police found drugs in her car. Apparently she was heavily medicated.

It's just unfortunate for the kids. They're all going to need therapy.

We should start with him. Seems like he has a lot to say. Seems like he's

spending that same energy on his son and the football program. Most active dad on

the PSC board. And one more from PSC member Kimber Randolph. Listen to this.

Sharon was definitely on drugs and everyone knew it. She was an unhinged

parent. Catherine was just trying to provide our kids with the best education

possible. She was an advocate for Penn Park. In my opinion, justice was served.

Well, she sounds fun.

Well, they did find a bottle of lorazepam in Sharon's car.

Kimber's all over the press claiming to be Catherine's best friend and demanding

justice. She really didn't like Sharon Warner.

Why?

There's only one way to find out.

Hi there. I'm here to see Sharon Warner.

Thank you so much for speaking with me, Sharon.

So I'm just trying to understand here, why was Kimber speaking about you like

this in the press?

Because she and Catherine didn't like that I exposed the truth.

That the PSC board is nothing more than a bunch of high school bullies.

I see.

And did you ever speak with Catherine about this?

Maybe even the night that she was murdered?

Look, I did go for a drive that night.

But it was in the opposite direction of Catherine's cabin.

My husband, Dave, and I got into a fight and I just needed to clear my head.

Trust me, that I understand.

And this is not an accusation in any way.

We're just trying to understand why the parents made some of these claims about

you. You mean about using drugs?

That would be one of them.

It's ridiculous.

I don't use prescription medication.

I've barely even taken a drink since Lily was born.

I'm really sorry about the mess.

Sharon would be mortified.

Don't worry about it. No need for apologies.

But we do have to ask, who do you think had it in them to frame your wife for

Catherine's murder?

I don't know.

Sharon had a lot of enemies at Penn Park, and Catherine had a lot of power.

Sharon was out of her mind with what Lily was going through at school.

I suggested she go on something, you know, take the edge off.

Her doctor tried, but she refused.

That's why I think that someone put those meds in her car.

Our first few weeks at Penn Park, they were great.

Lily has really bad asthma, and she was constantly bullied about it at her old

school.

Making friends was not easy.

But that all changed at Penn Park.

When she met Mia, Sherelle's daughter, Lily was over the moon.

But then the bullying started again.

By who?

Catherine's daughter, Harlow.

She even forced Mia to stop talking to Lily.

That's horrible.

When I reached out to Catherine and Sherelle to talk about it, that's when I

found out that their daughters were best friends.

Ah.

Harlow wanted her bestie back. I told Lily to walk away.

To tell the principal. And she did.

In a bad way.

Lily had her worst asthma attack yet, triggered by Harlow's bullying.

I'm so sorry, Sharon. And the worst part is, everyone looked the other way, even

though the school has a zero tolerance policy against bullying.

Why would they do that?

Because Catherine wasn't just the president of the PSC.

Her and her husband, Austin, were also big donors to the school.

It always comes down to money, doesn't it? Well, they left me no choice but to

go public.

So, at the next PSC meeting, I joined.

I exposed the bullying and demanded change. And if change didn't happen, not

only was I coming for Catherine's position as president, I was coming for

her legally.

I'm sorry, you were going to sue Catherine?

For emotional distress?

Absolutely.

I know how this looks.

And trust me, Catherine was not a nice person, but she didn't deserve to be

killed. And I just don't know who could do something like this.

Sharon, I know this seems impossible right now, but that is exactly what we

aim to figure out.

Despite our differences with our kids, I just keep thinking about her poor

family.

I hate to do this to you, Dave, but could you tell us where you were the

night of Catherine's murder?

I was with my attorney here in Philly.

I told this to the cops. I was filing for divorce.

I didn't tell Sharon. But then we heard about Katherine, and a week later,

Sharon was arrested.

How did Dave react to all of this?

He wasn't happy about it either.

But he wanted me to drop it.

But like any good mother, he refused.

It caused a lot of tension between us.

These past few months have been really rough on Dave.

And Lily.

It's gotta be hard navigating these life and death situations with a child.

I can only imagine it either brings you even closer together or tears you apart

entirely. Our marriage had been in a bad place for a long time.

But I wanted it to work.

I still do.

I think that's wonderful.

I regret how I went about things.

But I promise you that the only thing that I am guilty of is putting my family

first. And now, now all I do is worry if they'll be okay without me.

You asked who might have it in them to kill Catherine and frame Sharon?

If I were you, I would start with every single member of that PSC board.

How many board members does it take to offer president?

Hey.

Is this the, uh... Murder board?

Yes, it is.

I printed all the pictures you asked for. All ten PSC members, including the

three that testified at Sharon's trial.

Also, called every pharmacy in town. No record of Sharon Warner ever having a

prescription to lorazepam. Well, that's good to know, because after talking to

Sharon, I think we should take this case.

Us too.

Great. Glad we're on the same page.

The last thing Sharon said is that we should look into all the members of the

PSC. Yeah, Dave said the same thing. And apparently, Katherine Harris isn't who

she claimed to be. Are we sure we want to swim in this pond of piranhas?

Well, think about it. If Sharon was framed, then that means Katherine's

killer is still out there.

Liam and I confirmed Dave's alibi. He was with his attorney filing for

divorce. Sharon didn't know.

She still doesn't.

Dave and Lily need her help.

Well, two of us here know what it's like to grow up without a parent.

Piranhas or not, this family deserves justice.

I agree.

I'm in.

Okay, team.

We are going back to high school.

I think we're gonna need a bigger board.

How far would one of these parents go to protect their kid?

Or their status.

Yeah. Well, we have a board full of suspects. We just need a plan to figure

out how to get to them.

Did somebody say they needed a plan?

Not one that involves wearing that.

Huh? No. Come on.

Right?

It's pretty good.

I love it. Thank you. See, the stash always carries.

Besides, you're not going to be the one wearing it.

What? Penn Park is recruiting.

Their next private tour is the day after tomorrow. You two lucky parents are

going to be on it. OK. So you have approximately 48 hours to work on your

characters, all right? All right, fine.

But while we wait for PJ to get the discovery from Sharon's trial, I

wouldn't mind getting eyes on Katherine's cabin.

I'll come with you.

OK.

I'm never wearing a mustache.

Come on, man.

I'll get him to wear the mustache.

What's this, Josh? I just... There's something with... Oh, okay.

Huh. Katherine's cabin looks like a showroom.

Yeah.

Reminds me of my parents' house.

You know, sometimes I would tilt the artwork.

Slightly off, just to watch how my mom would lose her mind. Ooh, man living on

the edge.

What's next, turning all the clocks forward 27 minutes?

You know, you joke, but I have been known to be very naughty when I want to.

We should go to the woods and look where the body was found.

I can't imagine Sharon carrying Catherine's body this far.

Careful there.

What? No.

I'm not saying it has to be a man. I'm just saying she's petite.

We need to keep our options open.

Which means more than one person maybe carried her body?

Which could mean more than one person was there when she was murdered.

Can I ask you something?

Not about the case. Just, um... You know, you're a guy, right? And Marcus is

a guy.

Yeah, things that are true.

No, I'm just, um...

I know Marcus needs to get his own footing. I'm just having trouble letting

go.

Wait, wait, wait, wait. Are you asking me for advice in your personal life?

And if you gloat about it, I'm never going to ask you again.

You're right.

You know, I'll never understand what you and Marcus have gone through, but...

I did go through a similar situation with my older sister because neither of

our parents parented.

So Olivia was both the sister and the mother.

You never talk about your sister.

Well, it's been complicated since the fallout with my dad, who she works for.

Ah, okay. So she's the golden child that stayed and you're the bad boy who

didn't.

But all I'm saying is...

Once I got some distance from my family and got my own footing, I was able to

stand as my own person.

So maybe Marcus needs to talk to someone who isn't his sister or his mom.

Yeah.

I could talk to him.

Maybe I should give it a little more time first.

See if I can find the right moment.

Totally. But, you know, I strike out.

I'm calling the bad boy reinforcements.

We found a new suspect.

The lines on Sharon's case were like all kinds of blurred. But Catherine's

husband, Austin Harris, he appears to be the reason why. So the victim's husband

is a potential suspect?

Oh, yeah.

He's definitely went to track.

I shouldn't be telling you this, but...

Also explains why they never questioned the husband.

Not only was evidence not admitted and therefore not tested and testimonies

redacted, but the DA and Austin Harris made sure that only one person was

considered as a suspect.

Sharon Warner.

All right. Well, this is a really good start, but we're going to need something

more tangible than PJ's off-the-record paralegal.

And we still have to get our hands on that discovery.

And I know who we can ask.

Huh.

I'm assuming this is about the case you weren't sure you were taking.

Correct. I'm assuming you've decided to take it.

Correct again.

Dumplings to the rescue.

Hi, guys.

Hey.

Should I, um... No, actually, this is, um, just about the thing that we were.

Oh.

You took the case.

Good.

Hi. It was for you. I had such a hard day.

It's never not going to be weird. No, no, we can't unsee it.

We believe the issue kill a little, uh... Schuylkill.

County DA is deliberately not releasing the discovery.

And you want me to get in? That would be very helpful.

We have reason to believe that the DA is covering something up.

He's in tight with the victim's husband, Austin Harris, best friend since high

school. Okay, that is a very bold statement. Do you have evidence?

Nothing concrete yet, but Harris wanted the case closed very quickly.

Corners were cut. Remind me the DA's name again? DA Pearl.

Right. I don't know him personally, but...

You want to give him the benefit of the doubt. That said, small towns, bias

happens. Not just small towns.

No, no, you're right.

However, in small towns, everyone knows everyone.

As unintentional as it might be, it's hard to prosecute a friend or question a

friend's integrity.

So DA Pearl may believe he's doing the right thing. Exactly.

And if not, it's our job to make sure that justice is maintained.

Okay.

I'll look into it for you. Thank you.

Penn Park Academy New Pair Tour.

Casey and Eli, you're up.

All right, you guys.

Name is Principal Adams.

You're gonna take those, grab everything you can. Just try to play it cool, all

right? Don't call any attention to yourselves.

Tell that to the mustache.

You guys know I'm a bad actor, right?

It's cute.

Do you think our characters would hold hands?

I do. That's a great idea.

Okay. Yeah.

All right, the PSC is having a meeting in room 221.

See if you can get in there. Ah, the Van Brackens.

Principal Adams.

How do you do? Nice to meet you.

Pleasure. Nice to meet you.

This is the main building on our campus. Everything happens here.

Looks like Franklin Academy.

Same architect.

Very good eye. We're very proud of it.

What are you so giddy about?

Nothing.

Who are you texting?

None of your business.

In fact, meet Coach Higgins, Penn Park's head football coach and the reason for

that, state championship.

Edith and Albert Van Vracken, two prospective parents.

Congratulations.

Thank you, but I can't take the credit. Our boys earned that victory.

If you want to know anything about our kids, this is your guy. They go to him

for everything.

It was nice to meet you.

We're still on for fantasy football picks tomorrow, right? Yes, I'll see you

at five.

Excellent. Wonderful man.

Shall we continue?

So sorry. I have to take this.

Of course.

You keep him talking. I'm going to go find room 221.

Okay. You got this.

Yeah. Yeah.

Shall we wait for your wife?

Oh, no, no, no.

She had a work emergency.

She works for an advertising agency.

You just can't help yourself, can you?

That was bad. Yeah, that was rough.

All right, go left.

You're going to... Pass the cafeteria on your right and then it's going to be

your first right, room 221.

I'll find the tea party in the Mad Hatter? Where you'll find the PSE in a

room full of Mad Hatters. Right?

You don't get to be a part of this until you let me know who you're texting.

Okay. It's going to be your first right. It's coming up now.

So, tell me all about your daughter.

Yes, well, she's...

Unique. Super smart.

Strong-willed.

Very curious.

Just like her mother.

This is crazy.

She doesn't know what she's doing.

We can't all talk at once.

We'll let someone else.

Listen to me. We've been listening to you talk for the past hour, Kimber. You

know what?

I'm not doing this with you anymore.

That's terrible. Guys, things need to be rectified.

It's been months.

I motion for Shirell Anderson to be reinstated as treasurer.

Shirell. Shirell, you know how much I love you, but I think maybe we need

a fresh start for the position of treasurer. You're unbelievable.

You know I didn't mishandle the funds.

I'm the one who reported them. Mishandled funds?

Wait, if you're accusing me of stealing, say it. Then at least I can defend

myself. But you don't want to know the truth about the misallocated funds, do

you, Kimber?

Spicy parents, huh?

Listen, I told you, piranhas.

I feel your family would be a wonderful addition to our community.

Thank you. But there is one more thing.

The death of Katherine Harris, from what we heard, it escalated from bullying at

the school.

Well, off the record, those responsible for the bullying are no longer at this

school. And our PSC is working hard to find a better way forward.

One last announcement.

After much consideration alongside Principal Adams, we have decided to

proceed with our annual fundraising event, the Winter Weather Get-Together.

Invites are in the mail. This meeting is adjourned.

This meeting is not adjourned! It is not adjourned! Hey!

Where are they going?

Did you get that?

Yeah, yeah, I got it.

Fundraiser could be our way in.

Can I wear a dress?

I can't believe she just did that.

She's clearly making a play for the PSC president.

We decided it would be me.

I know Catherine and Kim brought team up to get me removed. And let's not forget

what they did to our kids.

Well, it didn't end too well for Catherine.

It won't end well for Kimber.

You've got to figure out what Katherine did to Shirell and Tarek's kids.

And where the money went.

Always follow the money.

Hello, anyone home? Good evening.

Hi.

Wow.

Cool space.

Just thought I'd stop by. Hope you don't mind.

Good to see you. Yep. What do we got here?

Tracking? Surveillance?

I don't work for you.

Okay.

These your suspects?

I mean, for now.

We don't really have anything official yet.

What is he doing here?

Oh.

DA Pearl doesn't know I have this.

Consider this a warning to keep a very low profile, okay?

Now, there are numerous redacted items, so infer away about what the prosecution

was hiding, but you have a case.

And since time is of the essence, I'll unofficially point you towards one

evidentiary piece that I believe put Sharon behind bars.

Her cell phone lock.

On the day Catherine was murdered, Sharon called her four times.

And when she didn't hear back, she sent a text.

This ends tonight.

The discovery revealed Catherine had puncture wounds on her back.

Yeah, and, uh, just saying that none of the wounds in the photos look like

anything in the watermelons.

Correct. Which means none of these were the kind of weapon used to kill her.

Which is exactly what the discovery said. Murder weapon unknown.

And even though evidence can survive on fabrics for months, they didn't test

Catherine's clothing. Well, they didn't even test anything in the cabin.

Just the items that were found on Sharon. Which is her jacket, the hairs

that were on the jacket, which turn out to be Catherine's, and the note that was

in her pocket, which had the address of Catherine's cabin on it.

That's all they needed to put Sharon away.

Man, Austin Harris really wanted this case closed quickly.

Liam, how are you doing on Sharon's alibi?

Good. Sharon said that she was on a drive that day, so I'm going to drive

the route myself.

I just need a red light camera, a photo of Sharon at any of the stops just to

prove that she was elsewhere at the time of the murder. I got the work address

for Austin Harris, so I'm going to give his office a visit.

Great. By the way, what time was Coach Higgins meeting with Principal Adams

again? Fantasy football draft starts at 5.

Thank you. I'm going to try and catch him before then. Prosecution redacted

most of his statement.

Hey,

you know what? Just a little question for you. Yeah.

Who is Sarah texting?

What do you mean? She's not... Oh.

You want to know if she's got a guy? No, I don't... No,

I'm good.

Uh-huh. You know, I just want to know if she's good. Uh-huh.

Because people can be weird.

Mm-hmm.

You're being weird.

I've got to go catch Coach Higgins, but just talk to her.

She's not scary.

All right. I'll find out for myself.

And you don't want them. Those red light cameras are everywhere. But when you

need them, the city decides to take them down.

Hello there. Oh, finally got one.

Okay.

Okay, next stop.

Broad and Passy.

Mr.

Higgins.

Mr. Higgins, I'm Cassandra Julian from the County Defense Office.

Would you be willing to answer a few questions about Sharon Warner?

I've already said everything I need to say.

And that case is closed.

Well, we believe Sharon Warner to be innocent, and we have some potential

evidence that might actually reopen her case.

Like I said, I've given my statements.

Well, that's just the thing. You see, the prosecution actually redacted most

of your statement, threw it out on the basis of bias.

Bias? Liars to who? Well, that is exactly what I am trying

to figure out, Mr. Higgins.

Please.

If Sharon didn't do this, we owe it to her and to Lily to make this right.

Of course.

Ask me anything.

So, Austin Harris' assistant, Cindy...

I confirm that he lied about his alibi. What?

She just willingly gave you that info?

I pretended to be private security hired to investigate a breach.

Wow. Yeah. Sometimes it pays to have this face.

Yeah. Ew.

Well, we know that Kimber publicly supported Catherine after her murder.

Yeah. But Coach Higgins was saying that before her murder, Kimber, Sherelle, and

Tarek were trying to take her down.

So why the about face from Kimber?

Seems like the answer to their problems was the removal of one person.

Katherine Harris.

An eye for an eye.

Still doesn't explain why Austin Harris wanted the case closed up so quickly.

Oh, guys, here they come.

Hi.

Hi. Come on in.

This is Cecilia Sands, Sharon's defense attorney. Cecilia, this is a special

group of people who focus on exonerating the wrongfully convicted, and they have

reason to believe that Sharon Warner is one of them. Oh, yeah.

Sorry.

I mean, I believe she is too, but it did not go our way. The Schuylkill DA was

not interested in justice.

What if we told you we had proof of Sharon's innocence? Would you fight to

reopen the case?

Depends. What do you consider proof?

Oh, wow.

Check that out.

Oh, I'm going to need my glasses.

Just don't poke your eyes. Stay by. Okay.

Oh, wow. You are all actually really attractive.

Thank you.

I'm sorry, what is this? Right.

So this is a picture of Sharon Warner in her car driving hours away from the

crime scene. This is at 7.34 p.m., same TOD as Catherine's murder.

Oh. And we have at least four viable suspects, all with strong motives.

And I am looking for a way to get closer to those suspects.

Legally, legally, of course.

We can continue on with this if you don't want to be involved, but it would

certainly be a lot easier with your help.

And you will have the full support of my office.

I'm going to file a PCRA petition.

What's a PCRA? Post-conviction relief hunt. It allows me to legally challenge

Sharon's conviction and fight to get her a new trial.

And I'm going to need you to make a call and expedite this sucker.

You hear me?

I hear you loud and clear. What can we do? You can send me everything you have.

And everything you can on those four suspects.

All right, bye.

Bye. Oh, and thank you, you.

Might have just saved Sharon Warner's life.

It tracks that you would still read an actual newspaper.

I'm reading this column called Nellie Knows.

My grandmother sends them to me reminding me to find a nice girl to

settle down with.

A nice girl, huh?

Thank you, Cecilia.

Okay, that was Cecilia. She says DA Quinn was able to convince the

Schuylkill County judge to hear the motion to reopen Sharon's case tomorrow

morning. That's great. Awesome.

I've got to stay busy, so I'm going to study group. You guys coming?

Absolutely. No, I'm good. I got the next block memorized.

Of course you do. Ew.

Well, some of us mere mortals still have to study, so I'll see ya.

We'll be back in an hour or so.

You know, I'm not sure if Nellie knows, but Sarah does.

Just ask. Ask her out already?

Sorry. I didn't know anyone was still here. Oh, hey.

Yeah, your sister and Sarah just left.

Want to sit?

So how's work?

It's work? Mm-hmm.

I got a night off. That's nice.

Sick.

You game?

Yeah.

It's a good way to stay in touch with friends.

Because, you know, most of them moved away for school.

Right. And I'm good at it.

Maybe one of the only things I'm good at.

I don't believe that.

You know, when I first...

Started law school.

I was a bit lost.

But then I met your sister and worked on your case.

And now I know what I want to use my degree for. So, you know, life's a

process. You learn as you go.

Yeah, I'd love to go to college for game design.

Really? Yeah.

Looked up a few schools. Georgia was one of them.

But I don't even know where to start.

Oh, come on.

It's easy.

I mean, compared to what you've been through.

That's a poor choice of words.

All I'm saying is you're more than capable.

And I'd be happy to help in any way if you need.

Thank you.

I wonder when the judge is going to rule.

That hearing should have been open to the public.

Austin Harris gets his way again.

Liam. Hey, go Liam.

Hey, good news. The winter weather get-together is happening and you're all

going to be the catering staff.

I feel like I missed something here. It's the winter fundraising event for

Penn Park Academy.

Liam was looking for a way to get us in.

And a way to get DNA on the PSC-3 to test against Catherine's clothing.

I created a fake catering company with glowing reviews and slid our information

into Kimber's inbox.

All our suspects, including Austin Harris, will be there, so you better

brush up on your serving skills.

I'll help you if you need help.

Thanks, Liam.

Cecilia's going to have to mount a new defense quickly.

What's interesting here is the PSC-3 were not friends, but publicly they all

supported Catherine.

Privately, they were each trying to take her down.

I feel like these testimonies had to be coordinated.

They're all virtually identical.

They were covering their tracks?

Or someone coerced them into pointing the finger at Sharon.

But who?

Austin Harris.

Maybe that's why D.A. Pearl redacted Higgins' testimony.

Because it pointed the finger at more suspects other than Sharon Warner.

Yeah, I don't see Higgins being coerced into doing anything.

No. You'd think that Harris would want the right person behind bars for killing

his wife.

Yeah, but when you're denying the truth, it usually means you're hiding it.

We just need to figure out what Austin Harris is hiding.

This is it.

Cecilia, hi.

Okay, yeah.

Thank you, thank you.

The judge reopened Sharon's case. Yes! Okay, no celebrating. We gotta get to

class. Let's go.

Sorry, sorry. Sorry.

Oh, that's a good boy.

Good Vigo.

Yeah, good Vigo.

All right. Now remember, everything you see, I see, right?

You guys look great. We are good to go. Okay.

Glasses, forks, anything with fingerprints or saliva.

I'll test it against whatever evidence Cecilia gets, hopefully Catherine's

clothing. We already have the DNA from Austin from the trial, so let's just

focus on the other three. And try to get something from Kimber's husband,

Kenneth, and any of the other spouses just to be safe.

Oh, and get close enough to overhear their conversations. I'll be recording

everything.

Okay. Glove up.

Samples need to be clean. Yes, ma'am. Hey, come here.

Hey, Casey, your pieces.

May I? Okay, please.

Thanks. I just don't want to... Good?

Uh, yeah. Thank you. Don't want to mess up your hair. No, it's fine. Thank you.

You? Smile.

Nice. Okay, so let's go.

Kenneth?

How much have you had to drink?

Hold it together.

With the exception of my husband, no one goes without food or drink until the

party's over.

Get rid of those gloves. This is not a cafeteria.

Sorry, boss's protocol.

Hi!

I'm gonna need something a bit stronger.

Personal weight.

Yeah, that's what you need. Oh, there we go. Casey 1, Eli 0.

It's obvious she's vying for votes to become PSC president.

Why else would she host?

And not to speak ill of the deceased, but Kimber, she's just another

Catherine.

I mean, we can't have her.

Casey 2, Eli 0.

Wow. Eli, come on, man. She's already got Kenneth and Sherelle. What's up?

Beat that, Eli.

Sherelle and Kenneth. Check. All right. Ace is U2.

All right.

Back to the ball I go.

Hey, hold on. Not yet. I need you to go up to Kimber's bedroom real quick.

It's fine.

It's going to be okay. You're fine. You know, Kimber's too paranoid to leave the

party anyway. You're safe.

I got you.

We got her.

We got you.

Champagne try in the bedroom?

What is this, glue?

You want some treats, buddy?

Come here. Yes.

That's a good boy.

All right, Liam.

I'm in the bedroom.

What exactly am I looking for again?

Just take pictures of whatever you can. A ledger, cash checks, anything out of

the ordinary.

Okay, sure.

Okay, heads up, everybody.

Catherine's husband, Austin Harris, just arrived.

Apparently Austin and Kimber's husband, Kenneth, do not like each other.

I got him.

Okay, I can't see this going well.

Liam, I think I got something.

Okay, what's in here?

Oh, I found her planner.

Yes, good buying case. Document everything you can.

Liam, you're gonna love this.

Okay. Come on, Casey, you got this.

Liam, where were you?

I'm sorry, Kaze. She's a slippery sucker.

Hey. Hey.

You're distracting me with your cuteness.

Took about five years off my life, but... I tried to get into her computer

and pull a Liam, but I got locked out. Oh, I'm flattered.

I can figure out a way to handle that later.

Okay, I just caught her on Eli's camera, so just finish up what you're doing and

let's get you out of there, okay?

Copy that.

Okay, Eli, what's your status?

Lost Austin, but...

I'm going to try to get close to Tarek and grab his conversation.

Okay, copy that.

But let's be for real.

Catherine's daughter, Harlow, caused Lily's big asthma attack.

But can you blame her?

She's only doing what her mother did for years.

Catherine would believe anyone who tried to stand up to her.

Sort of like someone else I know.

Sorry, I just need to steal Tarek for a second. I promise I'll return him.

I'm back.

Hey.

All right. Way to finally get in the game, Eli.

One point for you.

Good job.

You're still losing.

Right? Still losing.

Liam, I think I just won.

Yeah, you did. Way to go, Casey.

Kimber, Tarek, and Sherelle are headed to the library. Please follow.

I know exactly what you two are doing.

You're dragging my name through the mud to anyone who will listen.

Well, you're the one to talk. I don't think we don't know what you've been

doing. What happened to you? We had a plan, and you changed it.

Sherelle was going to be reinstated as treasurer.

I was going to step in as president and you were going to be VP.

But now that Catherine is gone, you're taking it all for yourself.

It's like you're a totally different person.

Eli just bagged the champagne glass from Tarek, but we still need something from

Kimber.

Oh, this can't be good.

Catherine's Porsche got repossessed, and yet they're on yachts all summer? Hey!

Guys, Austin and Kenneth are about to get into it. I came here today because

I'm tired of you spreading rumors about me and my late wife.

You're a bully like Catherine.

We all know how that ended.

You know they reopened Sharon's case, right?

I consider every single person in here a friend, including you. Stop lying,

Austin. The only person you care about is yourself.

You want to start a fight?

Come here. What do you think you're doing? Just so you know, our finances

are none of your business. Who dare come into my house and attack me? For Pete's

sake!

What's wrong with you? I'm so sorry. I just wanted to do something nice for

Catherine and her school.

I'm sorry, everyone.

Excuse me.

Is that what I think it is?

We just got our last piece of evidence.

All right. That is a wrap on the winter weather get together.

Great hustle, you guys. Great hustle.

Right? Sorry I'm not there, guys. I wanted to get here before this place

becomes a zoo.

I love the smell of a sterile lab in the morning.

Did anyone speak to Sharon's husband Dave again?

I did. He confirmed that Kimber went to Sharon to patch things up, but that was

after Catherine went missing.

So Kimber could have been covering for herself.

So maybe if...

Those three had taken care of Catherine.

Kimber got anxious and split from Tarek and Sherelle?

Yeah, well, whatever pretense the three of them were keeping up, we know that

Sherelle made it very clear that she was no longer team Kimber.

Seeing Kimber covered in champagne was poetic justice.

Oh, I also overheard Tarek saying that Harlow pretended to be friends with Lily

and then embarrassed her in front of the whole school.

I mean, trust me, that is horrible. That kind of stuff sticks with you forever.

I still remember when Veronica...

promised me the freshman spot on the dance team and then cut me like a hot

knife through butter in front of everyone at the school.

If I ever see her again, I swear. Is it the worst?

Well, I don't know if they're the worst.

I think it's more that the parents are the worst.

If they're not doing what they're supposed to do, how can we expect the

kids to?

I hear that, Sarah.

Yeah. Freshman year, I got pantsed in front of my crush.

I would have pantsed you.

Yeah, I think. I bet you would have. Okay, let's hear yours.

Worst high school moment? I did throw up in my junior year. That sucked.

That's your worst moment?

Dude, that's not that bad.

Guys, I was in my mascot costume.

Oh, oh, oh.

Sandy the South Philly Squirrel.

She never smelled the same again. As much as I'm enjoying this trip down

memory lane, I have to get back to my electrophoresis.

That's electrophore-what? It's a process where I map the strands of DNA to...

It's a process, and I need to get it done before the lab opens.

We also need someone to look into the Harris' money situation, so I've got

someone set up to do that. But we also can't rule out that Catherine might have

taken her own life.

Or that Austin might have taken it for her.

Maybe they had an insurance policy.

Especially if they had finance problems.

That's good case.

And sinister.

I like it.

Okay. I gotta go. Love you. Love you too.

We good? I just got a meeting to go to, so see you later. Okay, see ya.

So are you ever gonna ask her out or... I'm, you know, I'm building to it.

You got this. Stop torturing yourself.

I mean it.

No, no Case

pick up pick up pick up.

Oh I Need the best forensic accountant who can help me with a case and

as much as I hate to admit it That's you the morally righteous has

returned I'm sorry I've been a little MIA.

Little?

I'm buried in school and my internship... You're avoiding dad.

I'm not gonna lie.

I have been enjoying reliving my only child glory days before my headstrong

brother came into the world.

That's so cute.

Okay, well, I'm on the Harris' account. What are you looking for?

That was fast.

Yeah, I'm very good.

We're trying to figure out whether the rumors are true regarding the Harris'

financial situation being strained.

Yeah, well, the rumors were definitely true.

Overdraft, overdraft, interest charge, late payment charge, multiple transfers.

Ah, and there it is.

What?

About a year ago, monthly automatic transfers, the same amount every time

started coming into Catherine's account.

It didn't get them back in the black, but it helped them out of the red.

Can you find out where that money's coming from?

She didn't work outside the PSC. Actually, hold on here. I'm going to

forward you the PSC budget.

And can you cross-reference the amounts and the dates?

Sure. It's just going to take me a minute.

Sent.

Thank you.

Please send me anything that you find.

Okay.

Oh, and, um... Can this stay between us?

Oh, yeah, sure.

I'm just going to need something in return.

For the emotional toll this secret will bear on me.

Name it.

Mom and Dad's anniversary party. Oh, accept that. Please.

Please.

Sadly, I'm not feeling so well. I might need to take the week off and go home.

Okay, fine, fine, fine, fine.

Fine, I will be there.

But only as a token of my gratitude to you.

It was great doing business with you.

I bet it was.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Excuse me. I was supposed to pick you up from the

hospital. No, I know. I know. I just... I'm fine. I'm fine. Cecilia? Sarah just

walked in. Hang on.

I'm good.

I'm good.

Heard. Stand down.

Just need somewhere to process the evidence. We got at the party.

And they closed the lab because of the break-in. I'm really sorry that I lost

the evidence. No, babe. It's not you. You didn't lose anything.

You're the victim here. You were attacked. Cecilia. Yeah. On camera, no

less. Wait till I catch that perp. Sorry.

Perp? Dude, you know, wait till I catch that guy, you know? Who are you,

Columbo?

All right.

Sorry. Glad to see you're well.

I am willing to bet that those cameras in the lab will show that the person who

attacked you is Austin Harris.

Well, why would he want the evidence?

Why take the risk?

Because he doesn't want this case to be solved. Because he's hiding something.

And without the evidence, he gets his way.

Sarah, what else was in that evidence bag?

Oh, everything.

Her phone, her wallet, her shoes.

I just... I woke up on the floor.

Hey.

I am okay.

I promise.

Austin interfered with this investigation the first time around, and

he got away with it. Why wouldn't he think he could get away with it again?

He won't.

I'm getting that evidence back. No, you're not.

We have to do this legally, okay? I'm gonna call D.A. Quinn.

Already did.

He's on his way to question Austin.

And if the shoe fits, he'll deal with him.

This happened in his jurisdiction, which means we can finally get some answers.

That's really cool.

Just out of curiosity, how did D.A. Quinn sound?

Not happy.

Not happy at all. That's a logical response.

We're in trouble.

Very deep. Deepest trouble.

Yeah.

Okay, so.

DA Quinn found the evidence on Austin, and he arrested him on charges of

burglary, assault, and evidence tampering. Apparently, there were text

messages on Katherine's phone between the two of them talking about her using

PSC funds.

This all tracks.

Mm-hmm. But there is a kicker.

He's no longer a suspect.

What? He has an alibi.

What do you mean? From where?

He's getting Botox.

Is that a thing with men?

Uh.

Why are you looking at me? Well, I mean... You know, you know, just... So

pretty. Your face looks... Anyway, it is the one thing that actually was

confirmed by D.A. Quinn. He did call the dermatologist.

Okay, so what about the evidence?

That is now with Cecilia, and she will have it to you by the end of the day.

Nice work.

Nice work.

The other thing? Yeah.

That's a load off.

I'm just a little... I'm sorry. Shall I be honest? Yes, please.

Hey,

I should have said this sooner.

I really appreciate you wanting to protect me. Yeah.

You know, I would never let anything happen to you.

Thank you.

I didn't think I was the knight in shining armor kind of gal.

Yeah.

Does the third-year law student you're talking to know that about you? You did

recon on me again?

No, I would never, no.

That's a violation of your privacy.

Yeah, did recon on Joey Porter.

Uh-huh.

You know, if you ask me, I don't think he's knight in shining armor material.

Hey, guys, um...

While we're waiting for Cecilia to bring the evidence, who is up for a little

field trip to Schuylkill County?

Hmm?

I have an idea.

Same weight as the victim.

Well, I think it's safe to say it took more than one person to carry

Catherine's body.

They have to have left something open, right? Some way for us to get inside?

Liam, if we break in, anything we find is inadmissible in court.

I know.

No. Look at that. Wasn't that locked last time?

Well, it's not now, which probably means someone's been in here.

Anything? Uh, nothing yet.

Okay, Katherine's wounds are .75 inches in diameter and circular, so you're

looking for something that's sharp, thin, and round.

All right, sharp, thin, round. Careful, don't contaminate any.

Okay, well, we're not helping by just standing here. I'm gonna go walk the

property again just to make sure we didn't miss anything.

I'll go with you. Yeah, okay. Sorry, you good? Yeah, yeah, good.

Liam, find me something.

No, look harder.

Hey.

No.

Hey, there's something under the couch.

What? What, a knife?

A poker? A fingernail? I'll take anything.

How about an antique iron?

Why do I want an iron?

You're gonna want this iron.

What is it?

It's pretty good.

That's blood.

Yeah. That's blood and hair.

Oh, yeah.

Put it in the bag.

Put it in the bag.

Put it in the bag. Thank you, Liam.

Thank you, Liam. Put it in the bag.

Remember all I do for you. Okay.

Okay.

I did it.

Okay.

Well, well, well.

Nice. Thank you.

Seems like a pretty good place to hide something.

Yeah. Hey.

There was no snow on the lid.

Means it was opened recently.

Yeah. Oh.

Do you think they hid something down there?

I'll go.

Whoa, no, no, no. You're too heavy. I have a harness and gear in the van, but

we're not going to be able to lift you out. Yeah.

No.

I don't do well with wells.

Well, uh, yeah, no, cool. It's just a dark, cavernous hole in the ground that

I may or may not be able to be pulled out of. Sure.

Case. Case, you don't have to do this.

Liam, harness me up.

Okay, I got my stuff.

Okay, remember, you use both your hands to hold on to the rope.

Take these? Yep.

Okay.

And you use your legs to walk yourself down the well as I lower you down, okay?

Are you sure you want to do this?

I've done harder things.

All right, ready?

I'm gonna bark.

You see anything?

Well, I see three friends who are fighting over who gets to do my eulogy.

Not funny, Case.

Come on, it's a little bit funny.

Oh, you guys are no fun. Keep lowering me down, Liam. I got this.

Okay,

I'm at the bottom.

Talk to us, Case.

Are you okay? Talk to us. What happened?

Yeah, no, I'm good.

Guys, I think I see something.

One second.

Sarah, are you sure it's okay for us to be in here?

I don't know, but I am not ready to be alone.

Uh, okay.

Do you think this could be the murder weapon?

Well, without measuring, I can't be sure, but it looks like they match the

wounds on Catherine's back.

Wait, wait.

Those were in the cabin the first time Casey and I went there.

Your photographic memory is annoying. I mean, impressive, helpful, and annoying.

Thank you for saying that. She's not wrong.

Okay, CSIs, use luminol.

It's too expensive and my boss would notice, so we are going to use hydrogen

peroxide.

Pray to whoever you pray to.

You got this, babe.

If it bubbles, we got blood.

I think we just found her murder weapon.

Okay, so I got a viable DNA sample from the antlers. If it matches what we got

from Catherine's clothes, then I can finally develop a profile and have

forensic proof that the antlers were the cause of death.

That said, from the angle the antlers punctured Catherine's body,

I don't think she died instantly.

So whoever did this let her bleed out?

Possibly. Okay, if I'm not mistaken, the height of the antlers on the wall is

about the same height as Catherine's wounds would have been if she was

standing up.

Yes.

What if she was pushed into the antlers and not stabbed?

Oh.

Oh, that's good. Okay.

Okay. Killer comes to confront Catherine.

Catherine. A fight ensues. Catherine.

Catherine grabs the iron, hits the killer over the head with it. Okay,

okay, why the head? Because there's hair on it. I can't believe I missed this. Oh

my gosh, if I'm right, then the killer's DNA is on this iron.

Okay, uh, can you call Schuylkill County ER? See if anyone came in the day of the

murder with a head wound. Yes, absolutely.

Okay, and Eli is calling Cecilia and Quinn to try to get phone records from

Tarek, Sherelle, and Kimber.

Uh, yeah, great.

Marcus needs me to call him. Are you good if I step in the hall? Yeah,

everything okay? I think so.

Let me know if you find anything.

Yep.

Come to mama.

Who do you belong to?

This is beyond reckless. You know that, right? Yeah, well, we need to get into

Kimber's computer, and this is the only way.

Hey, um, you know, Sarah told me you wanted to ask Casey out.

No, that is not what... Besides, you're the one with the crush on Sarah.

Okay.

Don't think I have a... Reading that wrong. Okay, sure. No, you're the one

that needs help.

You're a flirting game. Oh, yeah, right. You're atrocious. Sarah, say that to

you, too, because Casey told me that you were asking about who Sarah was texting.

And by the way, Joey Porter is a nice guy.

Leave him alone.

I never get caught.

Who did you... Okay, you know what? I'm leaving this conversation alone because

we don't alone like that, bro.

I know we don't alone like that, bro. So then don't call me bro. Okay, well, then

just admit that you like Casey. How about that?

All right, listen.

Casey brought us together.

If something went down between us, then one of us would have to leave the group.

So it's a delicate situation.

My vote's on you leaving.

That's not good. Well, no, we'd be fine. We'd survive.

You know, remember that one time you walked out on us during Marcus's trial?

No, no, no, it's not that. It's just I... I neglected to tell Casey

something, and now she's going all, why am I explaining this to you? I don't

want to. It's none of your business. Never mind.

Who's Olivia?

Can you stop looking at my phone?

You're playing with fire, messing with two girls at once? Whoa, whoa, whoa,

whoa. No, no, no, no. Can we drop it for a second?

Stop, stop. Olivia is the forensic accountant, and she happens to be my

sister. So just chill.

And she just confirmed that Austin was covering up his wife's embezzling of PSC

funds. Boom.

Here, I'll send you the report.

Oh.

Okay, here we go. The eagle has flown.

Let's take a look at what's in that laptop.

All right, we just tell them we forgot a few things from the night before, you

know? Trays, cutlery. I got it.

Is that Kimber's kid? Yeah, looks like he's pretty immersed in that VR game.

Wonderful.

Uh, it's not like he can see us.

Does anyone lock their doors anymore?

All right, let's go. What? We're clear. Whoa, whoa.

What about your oath?

Enter if you dare.

Oh, look at that. We just got a formal invitation.

Look, we'll get what we need from Kimber's laptop, and then we'll get out.

All right.

After you, princess.

Come on. We're freezing.

What are you doing?

Dude, you're embarrassing me. Get up. Come on.

Tornado could blow through here and the kid wouldn't budge.

He's gaming.

He's plugged in.

You can't use a level three spell on a level two quest, Gareth.

Roundhouse. What's going on?

Come on. I don't have a password. I thought this was your thing. Shut.

That's right, fellas.

You don't mess with Time Bender Spencer 2009.

Spencer 2009.

Hey, I'm in. It's like taking candy from a baby.

What he said.

Shadow Ninja?

No way.

Bro, how long has it been?

Oh, it's good to hear your voice, man.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you can join our quest. Are you kidding? Let's go.

Come on, we have to go take a picture of the calendar and let's involve in those.

Okay, wait, wait, wait. Just checking research history.

Just do sex.

See, aren't you glad I didn't listen to you?

That's great.

Okay, proceed.

Proof of purchase.

Got it.

Hey, hey, hey, look at that.

The kid had a hockey game.

An away game. Same day as the murder.

Plot twist.

Kimber was on carpool.

Alibi or not, it doesn't help if we're caught.

Let's go. We're going.

What are you doing?

It's like taking candy from a baby.

You need serious psychiatric help.

If Kimber's alibi holds, that means she planted the lorazepam on Sharon sometime

before her son's hockey game or got Tarek and Sherelle to do it. Either

way... Someone was trying to frame Sharon. Sure.

But we still don't know how the murder weapon was used or by whom. Yet. We

don't know yet. Come on. Hey.

I think she's panicking.

Also, check your inboxes. It's the proof of Catherine's embezzlement.

I had my sister Olivia look into the Harris' financials.

Oh, hey, speaking of, did you know that he has a sister?

Yes. Yeah, about that.

None of us signed off on you bringing your sister into this. Yeah. I was just

trying to help. She's the best forensic accountant in the city.

Plus... We can trust her. But can I trust you?

Okay, Case, can we talk outside for a sec? No.

No, because we're a team.

And on a team, transparency is key. None of which you showed when you convinced

Marcus to go without even consulting me. I actually can't believe that you did

this again.

Wait, what happened with Marcus?

That is not fair. This is not the same situation at all.

Really? Okay. And you know it. I was just trying to help Marcus.

Case, okay, he said he wanted to go to college, and so I just, I helped him

with the application.

Marcus asked you for help?

Yeah. And he's got a good chance of getting into his dream school. It's...

In Georgia, Eli.

That is, it's 12 hours away. He's not ready for this. Are you not ready for

this? Okay, don't insert yourself into decisions that have nothing to do with

you. You should be happy for Marcus, Case. This is great.

I was just trying to help. I told you if I wanted your help, I would ask for it.

This is what's best for Marcus. He needs to do something with his life that

matters. Do not tell me what is best for my brother.

You've known him, what, maybe five minutes? I've been the only person that

has been there for him through everything. And maybe that's the

problem. Guys, I got a DNA match.

It is not who we expected.

It looks like we all want a fresh start.

So I make a motion to nominate myself for the position of president. Oh, what?

If there are no challengers, I make a motion to move to a vote.

I challenge.

All those in favor of voting me in as president say yay.

Well, it looks like we have a problem.

Your problem is bigger than just this vote.

This is a closed-door meeting. Please leave.

We only need a moment of your time. I promise it'll be worth it.

I know you.

You were in my house. You spilled champagne all over me.

I did do that. I'm very sorry about that, by the way. Who are you? You can

call us the Justice Warriors.

Sarah, not the time.

Love you.

All of you are right to not trust Kimba Randall. Okay, you need to leave. Now.

As you can see, Katherine Harris was embezzling your school's funds into her

own personal account.

The same funds you worked so hard to secure for your children were used to

save Katherine and Austin Harris from bankruptcy.

But Katherine's plan started to fail when Sherelle found the fraudulent

transfers. Great work, by the way.

You were telling the truth, and Catherine knew that. So she tried to

have you silenced by removing you as treasurer. She tried to silence Sharon,

but Sharon wouldn't be silenced. Because her feud was about something more

important than money.

Her child. No, but someone else made sure Sharon took the fall for a crime

that she didn't commit.

Look familiar?

I've never seen that before in my life.

Please, allow me to set the stage.

It is Saturday, and Catherine's at her cabin.

There's a knock at the door.

Because of her past misdeeds, Kimber, Sherelle, and Tarek were all plotting to

have Catherine removed as PSC president.

But what they didn't know is it was actually Kenneth who went to the cabin

to confront her. That's right, Kimber's husband.

Kenneth, what are you doing here? You've been stealing money from the PSC to fund

a life you can't afford. That's preposterous. I have all the evidence,

Catherine. Who do you think the people are going to believe?

A mom who's dedicated her life to this school, or a parent who's jealous

because their kid couldn't make the cut? Kimber doesn't know I'm here, but she's

had it with you. So, I'm offering you a quiet way out. Remove yourself as

president and leave Penn Park.

Or go to prison for embezzlement. Your choice. You need to leave.

Now. Get out of here. Why? Go!

Fine. I'm going to the cops.

Kenneth? Kenneth, are you okay?

Kenneth!

Most people could survive a stab wound like that if immediate medical attention

was sought.

But that's not what happened.

I didn't mean to. She just came up to me.

I know. I know.

Look at me. Look at me.

You are going to do exactly what I say. Okay.

This changes things.

We're going to have to distance ourselves from anything negative that

happened with Catherine. That includes Tarek and Shirelle.

Can we literally not do this while we're carrying her body?

You knew it was only a matter of time before Catherine turned up missing and

dead, so you needed a scapegoat.

Someone who was a known enemy to Catherine.

Sorry to drop by without notice, but...

You and Lily have gone through so much. I was hoping I could help.

Mind if I come in?

Of course.

Come in.

I really appreciate you coming by.

Enough is enough. We have to figure out a way to stop this with our kids.

And to be clear, I don't want anything to happen to Harlow.

My heart breaks for her because I know deep down she's in pain too.

So true.

That's the oven.

I'll be right back.

That's when you planted the note containing the address for Catherine's

cabin.

Along with her hair.

But that wasn't enough.

You had to paint the picture of an unhinged mother who would stop at

nothing to protect her child.

So you put your lorazepam in the doctor's prescription bottle.

But you put that bottle in her car and then informed the police that she was

abusing drugs.

And then you sat back and watched as Sharon was arrested, charged, and

convicted of the murder of Katherine Harris.

Originally, we thought it was the three of you, but then we realized it was just

you. This is all wildly imaginative. I mean, truly.

Besides, you don't have any proof.

Actually.

Exhibit A, your invoice.

For the prescription labels, Exhibit B, the lorazepam in your medicine cabinet,

which was found in Sharon's car.

There is no record of Sharon Warner having any prescription for lorazepam.

But there is a record of your husband in the ER the night of Catherine's murder.

His diagnosis?

Concussion.

We did find his DNA on Catherine's iron.

And on her clothes.

And when the case was reopened, you got nervous.

So you and Kenneth went back to the cabin to dispose of the antlers, but

that time, you forgot your gloves.

Your phone records also confirmed that your husband called you from Catherine's

cabin on the day of the murder. And we had someone look into the Harris'

financials. If he had called 911, Catherine's life could have been saved.

But our life would have been destroyed!

Catherine attacked him!

It was an accident!

She would have made sure Kenneth spent the rest of his life in prison.

Where's the justice in that?

He thought he was doing the right thing.

Shouldn't Catherine pay for what she did?

Shouldn't she?

Not every wrong has a remedy.

Great work.

Take her away.

Hey, you.

I've been meaning to say I could have totally helped you out with all the

school stuff.

I didn't want you to.

It's time for me to start taking care of myself.

I know it's going to take a while for you to trust that I'm going to be okay,

but I'm going to be okay.

I know.

It's just going to take me some time, so please bear with your sister.

Seriously, though, for the first time in a long time, I'm excited about the

future.

I owe a lot of that to Eli.

I am so damn proud of you.

Go have fun.

Okay. Yeah, I'm good.

He's good.

I'll take this to Sharon. Okay.

Hey. Hey.

Hey.

Good job.

So what about you spying on me? No, I'm just...

No, I wasn't. I was spying on you. Just doing a little background check.

You know, I want to make sure my people are good.

And that's all it was?

No,

it's not.

It's good. It's good. I mean, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

It's good.

No problem.

Okay, how about you?

Yep, here.

That's for you.

Is

this

a peace offering?

I owe you an apology.

I, um... I should not have reacted that way.

You were just trying to help.

I should have talked to you first.

You should have.

Yeah.

Look, it's just, I've been Marcus's everything forever.

But you were right.

I need to learn to start letting go.

And you gave us both that little push we needed, so...

Thank you.

It's the least I could do after everything you've done for me.

I went to law school because it's what was expected of me.

But you're the reason I stayed.

I'm very glad you did.

I think we make a pretty great team.

Yeah.

We do.

Mm-hmm.

Can I get everyone's attention?

Just come up here.

I just wanted to say a few words.

Listen, in my job, I never take it for granted when I get to deliver good news.

And today is a good day because a wrong was finally

made a right.

Thanks to... Do you guys have, like, a little name or anything?

The Justice Warriors.

It's not official. Justice Warriors.

That's cheesy, but I like that. No, I like that. Okay, well, thanks to the

Justice Warriors and Cecilia, all charges against Sharon have been

dismissed. Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo!

Yes. And I'm happy to report that Kenneth and Kimber were both charged

with second-degree felony of involuntary manslaughter plus obstruction of justice

for covering up the evidence.

And I would like to thank you for believing in me.

Words will never express how grateful I am to have my life back. To the justice

warriors. The justice warriors.

Justice Warriors!
