All language subtitles for A Crime To Remember S05E07 A Womans Place

BACK IN 1930,

WHEN MY FRIEND, PEARL,
AND I WERE YOUNG MOTHERS,

THE WORLD WAS
A DIFFERENT PLACE.

OUR LIVES WERE
ALL MAPPED OUT FOR US.

WE TOOK CARE OF THE HOUSE.

WE RAISED THE KIDS WHILE
OUR HUSBANDS WENT TO WORK.

MOM, I'M GOING.

WAIT FOR YOUR SISTER.

SHE'S NOT HERE.

WELL, WHERE IS SHE?

I DON'T KNOW.
I HAVEN'T SEEN HER.

SOMEHOW EVERYTHING
IN PEARL'S WORLD

WAS ALWAYS ELEGANT
AND PERFECTLY IN PLACE.

LEONA, YOU'RE LATE.

YOUR BROTHER HAS ALREADY LEFT.

BUT THE DAY LEONA WENT MISSING,

IT WOULD TURN OUR NEAT
AND TIDY WORLD UPSIDE DOWN.

DID YOU SEE
LEONA THIS MORNING?

- NO.
- I HAVEN'T SEEN HER, EITHER.

SHE'S NOT HERE, AND SHE
DIDN'T HAVE BREAKFAST.

SHE PROBABLY LEFT
ON HER OWN.

LEO, WHAT'S WRONG?

NOTHING, I'M FINE.

IT WAS LIKE AN EVIL SPELL
HAD BEEN CAST ON THAT FAMILY...

AND NONE OF US KNEW
HOW TO BREAK IT.

HELLO, ALBERT.

THANK YOU FOR COMING.
THIS IS PROBABLY NOTHING.

SHE'S SUCH AN INDEPENDENT
LITTLE GIRL.

WE'VE GOT A KIND OF BUSY
DAY HERE, PEARL.

JUST TELL US
WHAT HAPPENED.

I WAS IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE LAUNDRY

WHEN I REALIZED LEONA
HADN'T COME DOWNSTAIRS.

ON WEDNESDAY,
OCTOBER 15, 1930...

- AND THEN?
- I SEARCHED THE HOUSE.

THERE WAS NO TRACE OF HER.

...PEARL O'LOUGHLIN

NOTICES THAT SHE HASN'T SEEN
HER STEPDAUGHTER, LEONA.

USUALLY, SHE WALKS TO SCHOOL
IN THE MORNING

WITH HER FRIEND, BETTY,
SO I CALLED UP HER MOTHER.

MY DAUGHTER BETTY AND LEONA
WERE BEST FRIENDS.

DID LEONA COME BY
FOR BREAKFAST THIS MORNING?

NO, I'M SORRY, PEARL,

BUT I DON'T THINK
I DID SEE LEONA TODAY.

IN THE 1930s, THINGS
WERE MORE FORMAL IN THOSE DAYS,

BUT IT WAS NOT AT ALL UNUSUAL
BACK THEN, YOU KNOW, FOR A KID

TO HAVE REALLY THE FREE
RUN OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD

WITHOUT ANY ADULT SUPERVISION.

- ALL RIGHT.
- SHE'LL TURN UP, PEARL, DEAR.

YES, I'M SURE SHE WILL.

THANK YOU.

SHE'S NOT AT THE NEIGHBOR'S
HOUSE, AND SHE'S NOT AT SCHOOL.

THAT'S WHEN I STARTED
TO BECOME WORRIED

AND THOUGHT
I SHOULD CALL IT IN.

WHEN WAS THE LAST
TIME YOU SAW HER?

LAST NIGHT.

LEONA, GO TO BED SOON.

I'LL BE BACK LATER.

PEARL TELLS
THE DETECTIVES

THAT SHE PUT THE KIDS TO BED,

AS USUAL, AT 8 O'CLOCK OR SO,

AND AT 8:30, SHE LEAVES
TO GO VISIT A FRIEND.

I HAD TO HAND IT TO PEARL
FOR HOLDING IT TOGETHER.

I WOULD HAVE BEEN
A BASKET CASE,

THOUGH I SUPPOSED IT HELPS
TO HAVE FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES,

FRIENDS LIKE ALBERT.

DID YOU SEE LEONA AFTER YOU
GOT HOME LAST NIGHT?

I DIDN'T, NO.
I-I ASSUMED SHE WAS SLEEPING.

I'M SURE WE'LL FIND HER.
OKAY.

THANK YOU.

ALBERT CLARK IS
THE CHIEF OF DETECTIVES

IN THE CITY OF DENVER.

PEARL'S HUSBAND, LEO,
WHO WAS REALLY SICK,

WAS ALSO A DETECTIVE,

AND ALBERT AND LEO HAVE
WORKED TOGETHER FOR 20 YEARS.

WHAT ARE YOU
DOING OUT OF BED?

I'M WANT
TO HELP IF I CAN.

WHO ARE YOU KIDDING?
COME ON.

HE'S NOT ONLY LEO'S BOSS,

BUT HE'S A GOOD FRIEND
OF THE FAMILY.

- WAIT, WAIT.
- WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

THERE'S A PHOTO.
YOU GOT TO FIND HER.

ONE, TWO, THREE.

ONE, TWO, THREE.

LEONA IS LEO'S DAUGHTER
BY A PREVIOUS MARRIAGE.

SHE'S 10 YEARS OLD.

THIS IS TOO HARD FOR ME.

COME ON, DOUGLAS.
YOU GOT TO LEARN HOW TO DANCE.

- MOM!
- DOUGLAS, LISTEN TO YOUR SISTER.

AND PEARL, WHO ALSO WAS
PREVIOUSLY MARRIED,

HAS A SON NAMED DOUG
WHO'S 8 YEARS OLD,

SO THEY'RE LIVING
AS A BLENDED FAMILY.

SHE'S SUCH A GOOD GIRL.

- LIE DOWN.
- ALL RIGHT. OKAY, OKAY...

DOES YOUR DAUGHTER USUALLY
GO TO SCHOOL ON HER OWN?

SHE WALKS TO SCHOOL
BY HERSELF, SURE,

BUT NEVER WITHOUT
SAYING GOOD-BYE.

- WHAT'S GOING ON?
- HELLO, FRANK.

LEONA IS MISSING.

DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING
ABOUT THAT?

ALSO LIVING IN THE HOUSE
IS LEO'S BROTHER, FRANK,

WHO MOVED IN WITH THEM AFTER
HE MOVED IN FROM CALIFORNIA.

GO GET THESE BOYS
SOME COFFEE, PEARL.

WHEN'S THE LAST TIME
YOU REMEMBER SEEING YOUR NIECE?

SHE WOKE ME UP THIS MORNING.

I SAW HER PLAYING OUT IN
THE BACKYARD BEFORE SCHOOL.

IT'S JUST OUT MY WINDOW.

WHEN?

AROUND 8 O'CLOCK, I'D SAY.

SHE MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN LOST
ON HER WAY TO SCHOOL.

WE NEED TO TAKE A LOOK
AT THE BACKYARD,

CHECK WITH THE NEIGHBORS.

THE THOUGHT WAS THAT SHE HAD
SOMEHOW DISAPPEARED

BETWEEN HOME AND SCHOOL.

IN THE 1930s,

DENVER WAS SOMETHING
OF A COW TOWN STILL.

THE POPULATION WAS
SOMETHING LIKE 300,000.

LIKE A LOT OF THE REST
OF COUNTRY,

DENVER IS IN THE BEGINNINGS
OF THE DEPRESSION.

JOBS ARE DOWN.

CRIME WAS UP, SO IT WAS
KIND OF A TUMULTUOUS TIME.

THE POLICE CANVASS THE AREA.

THEY GET AS MANY MEN
OUT ON THE STREET

AS POSSIBLE LOOKING
FOR THIS LITTLE GIRL

AND RETRACING HER STEPS.

COULD YOU GIVE ME A SENSE
OF THE GIRL'S MORNING ROUTINE?

I WISH I COULD'VE BEEN
MORE HELPFUL,

BUT NONE OF US KNEW ANYTHING.

THEY INTERVIEWED PEOPLE
ALONG HER ROUTE

THAT MIGHT HAVE SEEN HER.

DO YOU KIDS KNOW LEONA?
SHE LIVES DOWN THE STREET.

YOU SEE HER THIS MORNING?

I DIDN'T SEE HER.

THEY DON'T FIND ANYTHING.

SHE DISAPPEARS.

THE FIRST 48 HOURS OF ANY KIND
OF ABDUCTION IS CRITICAL.

THE POLICE REALIZED
THAT NEWSPAPER COVERAGE

COULD HELP THEM FIND HER,

SO THEY QUICKLY GOT PICTURES
OF LEONA ON PAGE ONE.

IT'S CAPTAIN CLARK.

ALL RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT.

ON THURSDAY,
SOMEONE REPORTED TO THE POLICE

THAT HE HAD SEEN A MAN IN
THE O'LOUGHLINS' NEIGHBORHOOD.

HELLO, GIRLS.

COME HERE.

YOUR ROYAL HIGHNESSES
EVER BEEN TO A BALL?

HE WAS APPARENTLY TRYING TO LURE

A COUPLE OF NEIGHBORHOOD
GIRLS INTO HIS CAR.

THEY PICK UP A MAN
WHO HAD ALREADY SERVED TIME

IN PRISON
FOR A STATUTORY OFFENSE.

A PRIOR LIKE THAT, HE SEEMS LIKE
A VERY PROMISING SUSPECT.

YOU SPEND A LOT OF TIME
TALKING TO LITTLE GIRLS?

WHAT I DO IN MY OWN TIME
IS NONE OF YOUR CONCERN.

IT'S ABSOLUTELY
MY CONCERN.

I DIDN'T DO IT.

YOU DIDN'T DO WHAT?

I DIDN'T STEAL AWAY THE PRETTY
LITTLE DETECTIVE'S DAUGHTER.

YOU GO AHEAD.

YOU KEEP MAKING
YOUR ACCUSATIONS.

YOU'D BETTER
START TALKING.

BACK THEN, SUSPECTS WOULD'VE
BEEN SUBJECTED TO VERY,

VERY, VERY INTENSIVE,
HARSH QUESTIONING.

HIS BOSS JUST CONFIRMED
HE WAS AT WORK.

MAY I GO NOW, GENTLEMEN?

HE HAS AN AIRTIGHT ALIBI.

HE IS RELEASED.

ANOTHER LEAD HAS VANISHED
FOR THE POLICE.

THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE.
WE JUST GOT A CALL.

I'LL FILL YOU IN
IN THE CAR.

THE POLICE GET A PHONE CALL,
AND IT IS FROM A MAN

WHO SAYS HE KNOWS SOMETHING.

THE WITNESS TELLS THEM
THAT HE WAS TAKING A WALK

IN BERKELEY PARK

AND SAW SOMETHING.

WHEN I HEARD THEY FOUND
LITTLE LEONA'S BODY

2 DAYS AFTER SHE DISAPPEARED,

GOD, IT WAS ANY MOTHER'S
WORST NIGHTMARE COME TRUE.

I CERTAINLY HELD MY DAUGHTERS
CLOSER THAT NIGHT,

AND I MUST SAY I FELT
FOR THE POLICE OFFICERS, TOO.

HOW DO YOU BREAK THAT KIND
OF NEWS TO THE PARENTS?

THE POLICE SET UP A PERIMETER,
AND THEY GO IN,

AND THEY GET THE BODY
OUT OF THE LAKE.

THE BODY IS BLOATED.

SHE'S BEEN IN THE WATER
FOR SOME TIME.

THE MEDICAL EXAMINER NOTICES

THAT THERE'S SOME BRUISES
ON HER HEAD.

THEY THOUGHT
SHE'D PROBABLY BEEN HIT

WITH SOME BLUNT INSTRUMENT,

BUT THE HEAD WOUNDS
WOULD NOT HAVE KILLED HER,

SO THEY DON'T KNOW YET
EXACTLY HOW SHE DIED,

BUT THEY NOTICE THAT SHE IS
WEARING A SWEATER AND A DRESS.

SHE'S NOT WEARING
HER SCHOOL UNIFORM.

THEY BEGIN TO ELIMINATE
THE IDEA THAT SHE GOT SNATCHED

ON HER WAY TO SCHOOL.

THAT MEANS THAT THERE'S
A POSSIBILITY NOW

THAT SHE DISAPPEARED
THE NIGHT BEFORE.

THE BODY IS BROUGHT
TO THE MORGUE TO UNDERGO

A MORE COMPLETE AUTOPSY.

MEANWHILE, LEO HAD
GOTTEN SICKER TO THE POINT

WHERE HE HAD TO GO
TO THE HOSPITAL.

THEY TEST HIM
FOR FOOD POISONING.

THEY TEST HIM
FOR BACTERIAL INFECTION.

HE WAS ON OXYGEN AND
APPARENTLY NOT GETTING BETTER.

THEY DIDN'T KNOW
WHAT WAS WRONG WITH HIM.

NOBODY KNEW HOW TO TELL
PEARL THE NEWS.

SHE WAS ALREADY
DEALING WITH SO MUCH.

BUT EVENTUALLY CAME
THAT KNOCK ON THE DOOR

WE WERE ALL DREADING.

GOOD MORNING.

YOU FOUND HER?

I'M VERY SORRY.

NO.

I'M AFRAID YOUR
DAUGHTER IS DEAD.

WE CAN'T TELL LEO,
NOT YET.

I WORRY,
WITH HIS ILLNESS...

ABSOLUTELY.
WE WON'T SAY A WORD.

THEY DECIDE NOT TO TELL LEO
ABOUT THE DEATH OF HIS DAUGHTER

BECAUSE HE IS STILL
VERY GRAVELY ILL.

ASSUMING SHE WAS TAKEN ON
THE WAY TO SCHOOL WAS A MISTAKE.

WHEN THEY REALIZE
THAT LEONA HAS BEEN FOUND

IN THESE OTHER CLOTHES,
NOT HER SCHOOL UNIFORM,

THEY BEGIN TO WONDER
ABOUT FRANK'S STORY.

HE HAD ALREADY TOLD
THEM THAT HE HAD SEEN

LEONA PLAYING IN
THE BACKYARD BEFORE SCHOOL.

WE NEED TO LOOK INTO
EVERYBODY IN THAT FAMILY.

WHAT ABOUT TALKING
TO LEO'S FATHER?

CAPTAIN, PLEASE.

NOW THAT FRANK
HAS FALLEN UNDER SUSPICION,

DETECTIVES WANT
TO TALK TO PEOPLE

WHO ARE FAMILIAR
WITH THE FAMILY

TO SEE IF THEY CAN UNCOVER
ANY POSSIBLE MOTIVE.

SO, SATURDAY AFTERNOON,

THE DAY AFTER LEONA'S
BODY IS DISCOVERED,

THEY GO TO SPEAK
TO DENNIS O'LOUGHLIN,

FRANK AND LEO'S FATHER.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME
YOU WERE AT LEO'S HOUSE?

JUST A FEW DAYS AGO.

THE NIGHT BEFORE LEONA
DISAPPEARED, IN FACT.

GIVE ME A BIG SMILE NOW,
SWEETIE.

GORGEOUS!

THANK YOU, GRANDPA.

THERE WE GO.

STAND BY
YOUR DETECTIVE, PEARL.

COME HERE.

HE SAID IT WAS
A LOVELY DINNER PARTY.

ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.
LET'S EAT, DAD.

NOTHING WAS STRANGE.

EVERYONE GOT ALONG GREAT.

DENNIS DIDN'T NOTICE
ANYTHING AMISS.

MOM, CAN I HAVE SOME?

YOU HAVE ENOUGH FOOD
ON YOUR PLATE ALREADY.

PLEASE?

LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER.

I TOOK SOME PHOTOGRAPHS
THAT NIGHT I CAN SHOW YOU.

GOT THESE BACK
JUST YESTERDAY.

FRANK DOESN'T LOOK
VERY HAPPY.

YEAH.
HE DIDN'T EAT WITH US.

WHY NOT?

HIM AND PEARL, THEY DON'T
ALWAYS GET ALONG SO GOOD.

WHAT ABOUT HIM AND LEO?

WELL, THEY NEVER
HAD ANY TROUBLE.

YOU TAKE ANYTHING
IN YOUR COFFEE?

WOULD APPRECIATE SOME SUGAR
IF YOU HAPPEN TO HAVE ANY.

I DON'T BUY
SUGAR ANYMORE.

YOU KNOW WHAT THE GOVERNMENT
IS DOING NOW?

- WHAT?
- THEY'RE CUTTING THE SUGAR.

DENNIS SAYS HE HAD
HAD A DINNER PARTY

WITH THE ENTIRE FAMILY
6 WEEKS EARLIER,

BUT THEN, AFTER EVERYONE LEFT,

HE STILL HAD A BIT
OF A SWEET TOOTH.

SO HE HAD ACTUALLY TAKEN
A TEASPOON OF SUGAR

OUT OF THE SUGAR BOWL.

BUT WHEN HE
PUT IT IN HIS MOUTH,

HE COULD TASTE
A LITTLE BIT OF THE SUGAR,

BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING ELSE
VERY, VERY PECULIAR IN THERE.

THE TEXTURE WAS OFF.

SO, OF COURSE,

THE POLICE WANT
TO GET THEIR HANDS ON THIS STUFF

THAT DENNIS O'LOUGHLIN

FOUND IN HIS SUGAR BOWL,
BUT HE THREW IT ALL OUT.

I THINK THAT'S
EVERYTHING I NEED.

I APPRECIATE
YOUR HELP, SIR.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

CAPTAIN, MY SON FRANK
IS A DECENT MAN.

I JUST WANT YOU
TO KNOW THAT.

THANK YOU.

NURSE...

HAVE YOU HEARD ANYTHING
ABOUT MY DAUGHTER YET?

HAVE THEY FOUND HER?

I'M SORRY, DETECTIVE.
I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING.

WHILE MY FRIEND'S HUSBAND,
WHO HAD ALWAYS BEEN

SUCH A STRONG AND STURDY GUY,
WAS GETTING WORSE...

HAVE A SEAT, FRANK.

...I'D HEARD HIS BROTHER WAS
NOW THE PRIME SUSPECT

IN HIS OWN NIECE'S MURDER.

THE DETECTIVES FIND
FRANK O'LOUGHLIN

AND BRING HIM DOWN
TO THE POLICE STATION.

FRANK,
YOU SAID YOU SAW LEONA

PLAYING OUTSIDE
WEDNESDAY MORNING

ABOUT TO GO TO SCHOOL.

YEAH, RIGHT.

BUT SHE WAS FOUND
IN THE CLOTHES

THAT SHE WAS WEARING
THE DAY BEFORE.

WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT?

DID I SAY I SAW HER?

NO, I-I HEARD HER.

SO...

YOU DIDN'T SEE HER.

NO, I-I MUST'VE
MISREMEMBERED.

SORRY.

THIS TIME, WHEN THE POLICE
QUESTIONED FRANK,

HE SUDDENLY CHANGES HIS STORY.

FRANK, LISTEN.

I'VE KNOWN YOUR BROTHER
A LONG TIME,

SO I'M BEING POLITE
TO YOU AS A COURTESY.

BUT YOU'D BETTER START
EXPLAINING YOURSELF RIGHT NOW.

IT HAD ONLY BEEN A FEW
DAYS SINCE THEY FOUND MY FRIEND

PEARL'S STEPDAUGHTER
IN THE LAKE,

BUT AT LEAST NOW
THE POLICE HAD A LEAD.

PEARL'S BROTHER-IN-LAW, FRANK,
HAD LIED

ABOUT BEING THE LAST ONE
TO SEE LEONA ALIVE.

YOU KNOW,
I NEVER DID TRUST HIM.

I DIDN'T DO NOTHING WRONG,
DETECTIVE.

SO WHY'D
YOUR STORY CHANGE?

I DON'T KNOW.

I WASN'T SURE WHAT I HEARD
THAT MORNING,

BUT I WANTED TO HELP YOU.

THE POLICE ARE REALLY
STARTING TO LIKE

FRANK O'LOUGHLIN FOR THIS.

WHERE WERE YOU THE NIGHT
THAT LEONA DISAPPEARED?

WENT TO WORK,
AND THEN I CAME HOME.

THAT'S IT.

WHAT TIME DID YOU
GET TO THE HOUSE?

SAME TIME I ALWAYS DO,
8:00, MAYBE 9:00.

- WAS LEONA AT HOME?
- I DON'T KNOW.

I WENT TO MY ROOM,
AND THEN I READ THE NEWSPAPER

FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT.

THE NIGHT THAT LEONA
DISAPPEARED,

YOU WERE HOME ALONE
READING THE NEWSPAPER?

DOME, HOW LONG
HAVE I KNOWN YOU?

I DIDN'T DO IT.
YOU KNOW I DIDN'T DO IT.

WE KNOW THAT THERE WAS
TENSION IN THAT HOUSE,

AND IT WAS BECAUSE OF YOU,
BECAUSE OF YOU.

THERE'S ONLY ONE REASON
THERE'S ANY KIND OF TENSION

IN THAT HOUSE,
AND IT SURE AS HELL AIN'T ME.

MEANING WHAT?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU BOYS
ARE DOING BRINGING ME IN HERE

WHEN WE'VE GOT A GENUINE NUTCASE
LIVING IN THAT HOUSE!

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

YOU KNOW DAMN WELL
WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

MY BROTHER'S
PRISSY NEW WIFE.

JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO --

YOU'RE NOT GOING TO
BELIEVE THIS ONE...

PEARL!

PEARL!

WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO
TO MY LAUNDRY?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR LAUNDRY?

YOU KNOW DAMN WELL
WHAT HAPPENED.

MY CLOTHES ARE
BURNT TO A CRISP.

PEARL AND FRANK
GET INTO AN ARGUMENT.

SOMEHOW, THE CLOTHES
IN FRANK'S CLOSET CATCH FIRE,

AND HE ACCUSES PEARL
OF BURNING THEM.

WELL, ARE YOU STILL KEEPING
THAT BOOZE IN YOUR CLOSET?

FOR THE LAST TIME, PEARL,
WHAT I KEEP IN MY OWN ROOM

IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.

I PAY MY KEEP!

I'M JUST SAYING, CLEARLY,
IT SPONTANEOUSLY COMBUSTED,

AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING
KEEPING A DANGEROUS SUBSTANCE

LIKE THAT IN A HOUSE
WITH CHILDREN?

- SPONTANEOUSLY COMBUSTED?
- YEAH.

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?

SHE DID IT.
I KNOW SHE DID IT.

SHE SET ALL OF
MY CLOTHES ON FIRE,

AND SHE COULD'VE KILLED
EVERYBODY IN THAT HOUSE.

PEARL AND FRANK
DIDN'T LIKE EACH OTHER.

FROM THAT POINT ON,
THEY BARELY SPEAK TO EACH OTHER.

SHE'S CRAZY, AND I GOT A LOT
MORE STORIES LIKE THAT.

I'M TELLING YOU, DOME.

SHE DOESN'T CARE
ABOUT LEONA.

SHE'S NOT EVEN
HER REAL MOTHER.

HAVE YOU BOYS QUESTIONED PEARL
AS TO WHERE SHE WAS THAT NIGHT

OR WHAT SHE WAS DOING?

ON SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18, THE
CORONER MEETS WITH THE POLICE.

SO WHAT DID YOU FIND?

UPON EXAMINING THE CONTENTS
OF THE STOMACH,

I DISCOVERED A FOREIGN
SUBSTANCE IN THE LINING.

WHAT KIND OF
FOREIGN SUBSTANCE?

THIS IS VERY UNUSUAL.

IT WAS HARD
TO TELL AT FIRST,

BUT I NOW BELIEVE
IT TO BE GROUND GLASS.

THE FULL AUTOPSY REVEALED
THAT SHE HAD A STOMACH

FULL OF GROUND GLASS.

SO YOU THINK THIS MIGHT
HAVE KILLED HER?

NO.

BUT THE PROBABLE CAUSE
OF DEATH WAS ASPHYXIA.

SHE DROWNED AFTER HER BODY
WAS PUT IN THE LAKE.

IT WAS PROBABLY MIXED
INTO FOOD OR DRINK.

SO NOW THE POLICE
THINK ABOUT

WHAT DENNIS O'LOUGHLIN
FOUND IN A SUGAR BOWL...

AND NOW THEY'RE PRETTY SURE
THE REASON THAT LEO O'LOUGHLIN

IS SO SICK IN THE HOSPITAL

IS BECAUSE HE ALSO HAS
A STOMACH FULL OF GROUND GLASS.

WAS THE O'LOUGHLIN FAMILY
BEING POISONED BY SOMEONE?

THANK YOU, DOCTOR.

ASSUMING THE FOOD WAS LACED
WITH GROUND GLASS,

IT WOULD HAVE TO
HAVE BEEN SOMEBODY

WHO WAS TAKING THE MEALS.

AND OBVIOUSLY, IT WASN'T
GOING TO BE LEO.

IT WASN'T GOING TO BE DOUGLAS.

IT WASN'T GOING TO BE LEONA.

THAT ONLY LEFT ONE PERSON.

WE NEED TO TAKE
ANOTHER LOOK AROUND.

- PEARL.
- OF COURSE.

LET'S GET
THE PANTRY FIRST.

START HERE.

THOROUGH.

THE POLICE CHECK THE SUGAR,

BUT THEY DON'T FIND ANYTHING.

LEO'S CAR IS OUTSIDE.
LET'S GO TAKE A LOOK THERE.

THEY FIND A BLOODY RAG...

...AND A TIRE IRON
WITH BLOOD ON IT.

IF YOU'D ASKED ANY OF US
WHO KNEW PEARL O'LOUGHLIN,

WE'D HAVE SAID
SHE'S JUST LIKE US --

A REGULAR AMERICAN HOUSEWIFE
AND A GOOD MOTHER.

IF ANYTHING, HER LIFE SEEMED SO
MUCH MORE STABLE THAN OUR OWN,

SO WHEN SHE BECAME THE PRIME
SUSPECT IN LEONA'S MURDER,

IT ALL SEEMED WRONG.

HEY,
GOOD MORNING, DOUGIE.

MORNING, CAPTAIN CLARK.

WHY DON'T YOU HAVE
A SEAT HERE?

I JUST HAVE A FEW
QUESTIONS FOR YOU.

IS THAT OKAY?

- OKAY.
- OKAY.

LAST WEEK, WHEN
YOUR GRANDPA WAS HERE,

DO YOU REMEMBER
WHAT YOU HAD FOR DINNER?

HANG ON.

DOUGLAS GETS INTERVIEWED
BY THE POLICE,

AND THEY ASK HIM ABOUT DINNER.

LEO HAD HELPED
HIMSELF TO A VERY,

VERY LARGE PORTION OF RICE,

AND LEONA HAD ALSO EATEN
A BUNCH OF THE RICE.

DOUGLAS SAYS HIS MOTHER
TOLD HIM NOT TO EAT THE RICE

BECAUSE HE'D ALREADY
HAD ENOUGH TO EAT.

WELL, THANK YOU.
THAT'S VERY HELPFUL.

- THANK YOU, DOUGIE.
- YOU'RE WELCOME.

I FOUND THIS
IN THE CAR, SIR.

PEARL, WE'RE GOING TO NEED
TO TAKE YOU DOWNTOWN

AND ASK YOU
SOME QUESTIONS.

- - WHY?
- COME ON.

PEARL.
LET'S GO.

ON SUNDAY EVENING,
5 DAYS AFTER LEONA GOES MISSING,

THEY PICK UP PEARL O'LOUGHLIN.

GENTLEMEN, WE COULD'VE
JUST SPOKEN AT THE HOUSE.

HAVE A SEAT,
MRS. O'LOUGHLIN.

COULD I HAVE SOME WATER?

YOU CAN HAVE SOME WATER
WHEN YOU ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS.

WHAT TIME DID YOU LEAVE
THE HOUSE TO SEE YOUR FRIEND

THE NIGHT LEO'S DAUGHTER
DISAPPEARED?

ETHEL'S.
8:30, I BELIEVE.

WHAT WERE YOU DOING THERE?

YOU WANT ME TO LOOK
AT THAT HAIR OF YOURS.

WHY DON'T YOU COME HAVE A SEAT?
WE'LL TAKE A LOOK.

I CAN'T MAKE YOU WORK
IN THE EVENING.

STOP. SIT.
IT'S NO PROBLEM AT ALL.

BEFORE I FORGET,
YOUR HEATING PAD.

THANK YOU.

WHEN THE POLICE ASK
PEARL TO RESTATE HER ALIBI,

SHE SAYS AGAIN THAT SHE HAD GONE
TO HER FRIEND'S HOUSE AT 8:30.

I RETURNED A HEATING PAD
I BORROWED,

AND SHE OFFERED
TO CURL MY HAIR.

HOW DID YOU GET TO HER HOUSE?

WELL, I DROVE, OF COURSE.

IN YOUR HUSBAND'S CAR?

YES, THAT'S
THE ONLY CAR WE HAVE.

MRS. O'LOUGHLIN, WE FOUND A
BLOODY HANDKERCHIEF IN THE CAR.

YES, WHAT
A MORNING THAT WAS.

SHE TELLS HIM THAT HER SON
DOUGLAS HAD HAD A BLOODY NOSE,

AND SHE HAD GIVEN HIM THE RAG
TO STOP THE FLOW OF BLOOD.

AT THAT TIME, THEY DIDN'T
HAVE THE FORENSICS.

THEY COULD DETERMINE
THAT IT WAS HUMAN BLOOD,

BUT THEY COULDN'T TYPE IT,

AND THEY COULDN'T DETERMINE
WHO IT CAME FROM IN THE FAMILY.

AND IN THE TRUNK, WE FOUND
A TIRE IRON COATED WITH BLOOD.

I'VE NEVER USED
A TIRE IRON.

SHE SAID, "I DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT TIRE IRONS.

I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING
ABOUT TOOLS."

MRS. O'LOUGHLIN,
DO YOU KNOW

WHAT WAS FOUND
IN LEONA'S STOMACH?

LITTLE PIECES
OF GROUND GLASS.

WHAT?

THAT'S AWFUL.

DOCTORS AT THE HOSPITAL
TOLD US THIS AFTERNOON

THEY FOUND THAT GLASS
IN LEO'S SYSTEM, TOO.

YOU'RE NOT SUGGESTING...
GENTLEMEN, PLEASE.

LEO IS MY HUSBAND.

PEARL DENIES EVERYTHING,
AND SHE SAYS,

"HOW COULD A MOTHER KILL HER
STEPDAUGHTER WHO SHE LOVED?"

THAT DIDN'T
SATISFY THE POLICE.

AND YOU TOLD US YOU PUT LEONA
TO BED THAT NIGHT,

BUT SHE WAS FOUND
IN HER DAY CLOTHES.

WELL, NO, WHEN I LEFT HER,
SHE WAS --

AND YOU PLACED YOURSELF
IN THAT CAR.

GET COMFORTABLE, SWEETHEART.

WE'RE GOING TO BE HERE
FOR A WHILE.

SO POLICE HOUSE PEARL
IN THE MATRONS QUARTERS

WHILE THEY CONTINUE
TO LOOK FOR EVIDENCE

IN THE CASE AGAINST HER.

RIGHT NOW, PEARL'S DEFENSE
IS THIS ALIBI SHE HAS,

SO THE POLICE
GO TALK TO THE WOMAN

PROVIDING THAT ALIBI,

PEARL'S HAIRDRESSER
AND FRIEND, ETHEL SPARR.

SO WHAT CAN
I HELP YOU WITH?

WELL, I'M JUST TRYING
TO UNDERSTAND

THE WHO, WAS, WHERE, WHEN.

OF COURSE. PEARL CAME UP
AROUND 8:00, 8:30 MAYBE.

I DID HER HAIR.

ETHEL CONFIRMS
THE TIMELINE

THAT PEARL HAD TOLD THE POLICE.

WE TALKED ABOUT
THAT HUSBAND OF HERS.

THAT HUSBAND OF HERS?

WERE THERE PROBLEMS?

IT WAS SECOND MARRIAGES
FOR BOTH OF THEM.

IT'S BOUND
TO BE DIFFICULT.

DOES SOUND LIKE
HE CAN BE AWFULLY STINGY.

LEO AND PEARL ARGUED
A LOT ABOUT MONEY.

LEO THOUGHT THAT SHE
WAS GATHERING TOO MUCH

TO SPEND ON HER FAMILY.

WE MAY BE BACK IN TOUCH,
BUT FOR NOW, THANK YOU.

- OKAY.
- ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

- WELL, YOU HAVE A NICE DAY.
- BYE-BYE.

THEY HAD A BODY
AND A FAMILY IN TURMOIL,

BUT THEY DIDN'T HAVE A MOTIVE.

LEO'S NOT A RICH MAN,

BUT HOW MUCH DO YOU THINK
HIS OLD MAN IS WORTH?

GET ME DENNIS O'LOUGHLIN.

YOU KNOW, IT'S THE OLD CLICHé,
"FOLLOW THE MONEY."

WE DON'T COME FROM MUCH,

BUT I'VE BEEN LUCKY
IN MY LATER YEARS.

DETECTIVES LOOK AT

DENNIS O'LOUGHLIN'S
FINANCIAL STATUS.

HE'S WORTH $35,000.

$35,000 IN 1930

IS THE EQUIVALENT OF ABOUT
A HALF A MILLION DOLLARS

IN TODAY'S MONEY.

DOES PEARL
KNOW ABOUT THIS?

WELL, SURE.
IT'S NO SECRET.

IF DENNIS WERE
TO DIE, IT WOULD GO TO LEO,

AND IF LEO DIED,
IT WOULD PASS TO LEONA,

AND IF LEONA DIED,

IT WOULD END UP
IN PEARL'S BANK ACCOUNT.

THAT MONDAY NIGHT,
THE POLICE TAKE PEARL

TO THE MORGUE
TO SEE IF THEY COULD BRING HER

TO A BREAKING POINT TO ACTUALLY
SEE HER OWN STEPDAUGHTER DEAD.

GOD.

GOD.

LEONA'S CORPSE IS
LAID OUT ON THE TABLE,

AND THEY QUESTION
HER THERE BY THE BODY.

CONFESS.

ADMIT IT.

SHE CRIES,
AND SHE KISSES LEONA,

AND SHE DOES NOT CONFESS.

WELCOME BACK,
CAPTAIN CLARK.

CAN I OFFER
YOU GENTLEMEN --

NO, NO.

POLICE GO BACK
AND TALK TO ETHEL SPARR AGAIN

TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT SHE'S
TELLING THEM IS THE TRUTH.

MRS. SPARR, HAVE YOU READ
THE NEWSPAPERS LATELY?

YES, OF COURSE.

IT'S JUST TERRIBLE.

YOUR FRIEND, PEARL,
SHE'S OUR PRIME SUSPECT.

LADY, IF YOU ARE COVERING
FOR YOUR FRIEND,

WE NEED TO KNOW NOW
BECAUSE, AT THIS POINT,

YOU'RE OBSTRUCTING
A MURDER INVESTIGATION.

I...

I MEAN, I WAS JUST
TRYING TO HELP.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT,
RIGHT OFFICERS? I...

AT THAT POINT, ETHEL UNDERSTANDS
THAT SHE'S PROVIDING AN ALIBI

FOR SOMEONE WHO MAY HAVE
MURDERED A 10-YEAR-OLD CHILD,

AND SHE'S NO LONGER
WILLING TO COVER FOR PEARL.

SO YOU DIDN'T SEE HER
THAT NIGHT AT ALL?

NO, I DID,
IT'S JUST MUCH LATER,

AND SHE DIDN'T WANT HER HUSBAND
TO KNOW WHERE SHE'D BEEN.

GO ON.
WHAT HAPPENED?

SHE CAME OVER
AROUND 10:30.

LEO CAN'T KNOW WHERE
I WAS TONIGHT.

CAN I SAY
I WAS HERE WITH YOU?

I -- I WAS HERE
SINCE 8:30.

SHE EXPLAINS
TO POLICE THAT,

WHEN PEARL SHOWED UP
AT HER HOUSE,

IT WAS ABOUT 10:30 AT NIGHT.

PLEASE, ETHEL,
PROMISE ME.

SURE, POLLY.
OF COURSE.

SHE HAD MAYBE
BEEN WITH A MAN,

MAYBE WAS TALKING ABOUT GETTING
AN OPERATION OF SOME KIND.

- YOUR HEATING PAD.
- THANK YOU.

WHETHER IT
WAS ADULTERY,

WHICH WAS ILLEGAL AT THE TIME,

OR POTENTIALLY AN ABORTION,

ETHEL JUST UNDERSTOOD IMPLICITLY

THAT SHE NEEDED
TO HELP HER FRIEND OUT,

AND SO THEY CONCOCTED
THIS STORY.

WHY DO YOU THINK
SHE TOLD YOU TO LIE?

I DON'T KNOW, BUT, OFFICERS,
I'M TELLING YOU,

THERE MUST BE SOME KIND
OF EXPLANATION FOR THIS

BECAUSE PEARL LOVED
THAT GIRL LIKE HER OWN.

ETHEL'S ADMISSION

COMPLETELY BLOWS UP
PEARL'S ALIBI.

IF SHE WASN'T AT ETHEL'S HOUSE,
WHERE WAS SHE?

MEANWHILE,
IN THE HOSPITAL,

LEO IS GETTING BETTER NOW
THAT THEY HAVE TREATED HIM

FOR GROUND GLASS IN HIS SYSTEM,

BUT HE DOESN'T KNOW YET
THAT HIS DAUGHTER IS DEAD.

HOW YOU DOING,
O'LOUGHLIN?

ALBERT...

JUST TELL ME.

SHE'S DEAD, ISN'T SHE?

DO YOU KNOW WHO DID IT?

WE'VE NARROWED IT DOWN
TO TWO SUSPECTS.

WE BELIEVE IT'S EITHER
YOUR BROTHER OR YOUR WIFE.

IT'S NOT FRANK.

I KNOW MY BROTHER.

HE DIDN'T DO IT.

LEO HAS
TO ADMIT TO HIMSELF

THAT THE WOMAN
HE IS MARRIED TO

WAS PROBABLY RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE MURDER OF HIS DAUGHTER.

THAT LAWYER OF HERS
IS PUSHING TO SEE HER AGAIN.

IGNORE HIM.

I WANT TO TALK TO HER.

O'LOUGHLIN,
YOU SHOULD BE AT HOME.

WE'LL DEAL WITH HER.

CAPTAIN,
LET ME TALK TO HER.

NOBODY KNOWS THAT WOMAN
LIKE I DO.

I'LL GO IN THERE AS A DETECTIVE,
NOT AS HER HUSBAND.

I'LL GET THE TRUTH OUT OF HER.
I PROMISE YOU THAT.

AND LEO WAS KNOWN
AS AN ACE SLEUTH

OF THE DENVER POLICE FORCE.

HE WAS A VERY, VERY
WELL-RESPECTED DETECTIVE.

IT'S NOT OUR TYPICAL TACTICS,

BUT IT'S NOT YOUR
TYPICAL CASE, EITHER.

ALL RIGHT.

LEO IS GOING TO
INTERROGATE HIS WIFE.

MY FRIEND PEARL HAD BEEN
HELD IN THE WOMEN'S PRISON

FOR CLOSE TO A WEEK WHEN HER
HUSBAND, LEO, CAME TO SEE HER.

I USED TO BE KIND OF JEALOUS
THAT HER HUSBAND WAS A COP,

THAT SHE HAD THE PRIVILEGE
OF HIS PROTECTION...

LEO?

THANK GOD.

...TILL THE DAY
HE WALKED INTO THAT ROOM

NOT AS HER HUSBAND
BUT AS HER INTERROGATOR.

IT'S VERY UNUSUAL FOR A HUSBAND
TO INTERROGATE HIS OWN WIFE.

THERE'S A REASON THAT PEOPLE
DON'T DO THAT NOWADAYS.

LEO, THEY'VE KEPT ME
HERE FOR SO LONG.

THEY'VE BEEN ASKING ME
THESE QUESTIONS,

THESE HORRIBLE QUESTIONS.

HIS EMOTIONS MIGHT INFLUENCE
HIS INTERVIEW WITH HER.

YOU'RE LOOKING BETTER.
THAT'S GOOD.

YES.

PEARL MAY HAVE HOPED THAT LEO
WOULD DEFEND HER

OR WOULD PROTECT HER

OR WOULD BE GENTLE WITH HER.

I WAS SO WORRIED.

- WERE YOU?
- OF COURSE.

HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT?

WHAT AM I
SUPPOSED TO THINK?

I WAS NEVER GOOD ENOUGH
FOR YOU, FOR DOUGLAS.

LEO DIDN'T MAKE A LOT
OF MONEY AS A POLICEMAN,

AND HE FELT THAT PEARL
WAS TAKING HIS MONEY

AND GIVING IT TO HER FAMILY.

I WOULD NEVER HURT LEONA
OR YOU.

PEARL APPEALS TO HIM
AS HER HUSBAND AND SAYS,

"PLEASE BELIEVE ME.
I DIDN'T DO THIS."

WHO ELSE
COULD'VE DONE IT?

ALCOHOL CHANGES
PEOPLE, LEO.

IF YOU'D SEEN THE WAYS FRANK HAD
LOOKED AT LEONA LIKE I DID...

RIGHT.
YOU'VE ALWAYS HATED HIM.

BLAME FRANK.

I THINK THE POLICE
PROBABLY DIDN'T TAKE

THAT ACCUSATION VERY SERIOUSLY

BECAUSE SHE HAD A HISTORY
OF NOT GETTING ALONG

WITH HER BROTHER-IN-LAW,

AND IT'S A VERY CONVENIENT
DIRECTION TO POINT THE FINGER,

THE ONE OTHER PERSON
IN THE HOUSE.

I KNOW HE DID IT.

ENOUGH.

I NEED THE TRUTH.

CONFESS TO ME.

I DIDN'T DO IT.

YOU DON'T BELIEVE THEM,
DO YOU?

YOU WANT TO KNOW
WHAT I BELIEVE?

I THINK YOU GROUND UP GLASS,

AND YOU PUT IT IN
THE SUGAR BOWL.

AND THEN, AT DINNER, YOU SERVED
ME AND MY DAUGHTER,

BUT IT DIDN'T WORK, DID IT?

SO YOU WAITED UNTIL
I WENT TO WORK.

COME ON, HONEY.
LET'S GO FOR A LITTLE RIDE.

AND YOU TOOK HER
FROM HER BED.

WHY ARE WE HERE?

WE'VE GOT TO PICK
SOMETHING UP FOR DADDY.

HE LEFT IT AT THE PARK.

HE ASKED ME TO COME BY
AND PICK IT UP.

AND YOU DROVE HER
TO THE LAKE.

LOOK, I THINK IT'S
A SHOOTING STAR!

AND YOU HIT HER ON THE BACK
OF THE HEAD WITH A TIRE IRON,

AND YOU THREW MY LITTLE
GIRL IN THE LAKE,

AND YOU LET HER DROWN!

- NO, LEO!
- LIAR!

WE KNOW YOU DID IT.

THE GROUND GLASS IN HER STOMACH,
THE BLOOD ON THE TIRE IRON.

ETHEL TOLD US, PEARL!

SH-SHE TOLD US
YOU MADE HER LIE!

SHE DIDN'T.

SHE TOLD US YOU GOT
TO HER HOUSE AT 10:30.

IT'S ALL LIES, LEO,
ALL OF IT!

SHE MAINTAINED, "I DIDN'T DO IT.
I DIDN'T DO IT. I DIDN'T DO IT."

YOU WANTED TO GET RID OF ME
AND MY FATHER

AND LEONA

SO YOU COULD TAKE
MY FAMILY MONEY.

HOW COULD YOU THINK THAT?

I DIDN'T MARRY YOU
FOR THAT.

I LOVED LEONA LIKE
MY OWN DAUGHTER.

WE'RE A FAMILY.

PROMISE ME
YOU DIDN'T DO THIS.

I DIDN'T DO IT.

WHEN I SAW LEONA WAS MISSING,
I -- I STOPPED WHAT I WAS DOING.

I DIDN'T EVEN PUT THE WET
LAUNDRY ON THE LINE.

L-LAUNDRY?

YOU WERE DOING LAUNDRY?

YES.

IT WAS WEDNESDAY.

YOU DO THE WASH
ON MONDAYS.

THAT'S WHEN IT HITS LEO
THERE'S A CHANCE THAT THE REASON

SHE'S DOING LAUNDRY
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK

IS BECAUSE SHE'S TRYING
TO GET RID OF EVIDENCE.

SEND SOMEBODY TO MY HOUSE TO
CHECK OUT THE WASHING MACHINE.

WE'RE LOOKING
FOR DIRT OR BLOOD.

RIGHT AWAY.

LOCK HER UP.

I NEVER WANT
TO SEE HER AGAIN.

LEO, NO, WAIT!

LEO WAS A DETECTIVE,
SO HE KNEW

WHEN PEOPLE WEREN'T
TELLING HIM THE TRUTH.

UNFORTUNATELY, THIS TIME,

HE SPOTTED IT FOR
THE WORST REASON POSSIBLE.

THE POLICE GO BACK
AND CHECK THE HOUSE AGAIN,

AND THEY FIND TRACES
OF SAND IN THE WASHER

THAT MATCHED
THE SAND AT THE LAKE.

IT TAKES A JURY
1 HOUR AND 36 MINUTES

TO FIND PEARL GUILTY.

AS I LOOK BACK,
I STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND

HOW SHE COULD'VE HIDDEN
THAT DARKNESS FROM ALL OF US.

WE FIND SOME PRETTY
INTERESTING PERSONALITY TRAITS

THAT GO ALONG WITH CHOOSING
POISONING AS A WEAPON.

IT IS A COLD,
PREMEDITATED MURDER.

THEY'RE OFTEN VERY CREATIVE.

THEY WILL PLOT OUT A MURDER JUST
LIKE WE MIGHT PLOT OUT A PLAY.

POISONERS WE KNOW ALMOST
ALWAYS CHOOSE PEOPLE

THAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED
TO BE CLOSE TO,

SO THEY HAVE TO PRETEND
TO BE A LOVING WIFE,

A MODEL MOTHER,
A CONCERNED FRIEND,

ALL THE WHILE,
BEHIND THE SCENES, PLOTTING

TO DO SOMETHING
VERY DIFFERENT.

EVEN IF SHE FELT TRAPPED
IN THAT HOUSE --

LORD KNOWS WE'VE ALL
HAD OUR MOMENTS --

WHY TAKE IT OUT ON LEONA,
THAT POOR LITTLE GIRL?

I DON'T THINK THAT SHE PLANNED
TO KILL LEONA

IN THE WAY THAT SHE DID.

I BELIEVE THAT SOMETHING
HAPPENED IN THAT HOME

THAT WE MAY NEVER KNOW
WHAT IT WAS

THAT KIND OF ESCALATED THINGS,

AND I THINK, OUT OF HER
FRUSTRATION OR FEAR

OR DESPERATION, SHE KILLED LEONA
AND TRIED TO HIDE THAT.

WHEN I HEAR ABOUT
PEOPLE THAT KILL CHILDREN,

I THINK IT'S A SPECIAL KIND OF
SOCIOPATH, MAYBE, OR PSYCHOPATH,

SOMEONE THAT HAS AN ABILITY
TO END A TOTALLY INNOCENT LIFE,

AND IT REALLY SEEMS LIKE YOU

WOULD HAVE TO HAVE
NO CONSCIENCE WHATSOEVER.

AND IT'S ALSO SURPRISING
WHEN IT'S A WOMAN.

IT GOES AGAINST EVERYTHING
WE'RE RAISED TO BELIEVE

THAT WOMEN ARE SUPPOSED TO BE.

THE NEWSPAPERS GAVE PEARL
A NICKNAME -- THE IRON LADY.

I HAD ALWAYS ADMIRED
HOW STRONG SHE WAS,

HOW EASY SHE MADE IT ALL LOOK,

BUT WE ALL HAD
THE FAIRY TALE WRONG.

MAYBE THE REAL PEARL
WAS HIDING BEHIND THE ROLE

THE WORLD EXPECTED HER TO PLAY,

AND MAYBE, IF YOU PRETEND
TO BE SOMETHING

YOU'RE NOT DAY IN AND DAY OUT,

YOU ROT ON THE INSIDE
LIKE A POISON APPLE,

SWEET ON THE OUTSIDE
BUT DEADLY TO THE CORE.

THANK YOU, ETHEL.

I REALLY NEED THIS.

IF YOU ONLY KNEW.

GETTING OUT OF THE HOUSE
WITH THOSE MEN...
