How can it hurt Catherine?

Just meet him.

Mom. He's in insurance or something, a divorce.

He seems very nice.

And whose son is this exactly?

Judy and David Armpath. You remember them.

Oh, wait.

The Armpits?

Catherine. What? When we were kids, we called them the Armpits because David

that terrible... It's a glandular issue, Catherine.

Yeah, and probably genetic. And a good reason not to go on a blind date with

son. Coffee, Catherine.

Just coffee. Oh, Mom.

I know that you mean well, but these setups, they don't ever really work out.

Your father promised them.

What are we supposed to tell them?

Well, that I can't because I'm seeing someone.

You're seeing someone?

Was that the old boyfriend from the law school? Well, yeah. Not really. Well,

maybe. I'm thinking about it. I don't know. I just, I have to give her a

or she's going to set me up with Alan Pitt Jr.

Say hi to your mom for me. Oh, my God. You know, I know she's trying. It's

I can't. I want to, she just makes me so. Catherine, are you there? Oh.

Speaking of women who.

Oh.

Catherine. We invited the wife from the Concolina Medicare.

Great. Thank you.

Catherine. Hello.

Are you there?

What's his name?

What does he do?

You know what, I'll tell you all about it later, but I just, I have to go right

now. I have to go to court.

Or I get to do the interrogating.

They indicted Stephanie Concolino?

Yeah. Apparently there's a little -known theory in law enforcement that says if

a dentist has killed his own chair, the wife has to be the killer.

Have they taken her into custody? No, Lady Catherine has been so kind as to

us surrender her.

Jimmy, your kids are trying to staple each other.

Boys!

Justin, Mitchell, stop!

No!

Nice to see you've managed to keep them alive on your watch.

Alejo, come here. It's been forever.

Too long, Danny.

You must be Lena, the new associate.

Yeah, Lena, this is Danny.

Jimmy's ex and mother to these hellions. All right, spanky alfalfa, come here.

Give me some love.

All right, you boys.

Be good to your mom. Okay, Danny. Danny, I'd love to stay and chat, but I gotta

get to work.

Where have I heard that before?

Am I allowed to take a toothbrush?

Of course you can't. Do they have shampoo?

Yeah. What happens with my wallet?

I don't leave anything valuable here.

Mr. Brogan, this is... This is all so bizarre.

What... What in the world makes them think I killed Charles?

We haven't seen their evidence yet, but you said the detectives were talking to

you, asking questions about your divorce, possible infidelities.

There wasn't any.

Not by him, not by me. We just weren't right for each other. You know, I... I

was ready to start a family, and he wasn't.

Anyway, I was at the movies that night.

You saw the ticket stub, the receipt on my credit card, asked the concession

stand guy with the nose ring.

Well, try to find someone who remembers seeing you.

This is what I get for going to the movies alone.

Since Charles and I separated, I hate to be here by myself.

Thinking about my life.

About him.

Now he's dead.

You ready? We should get going.

Bad case, Peter.

You're like a train bird, Jimmy.

Bad case, wrong suspect. Bad case, wrong suspect.

The marriage was a complete mess. He was cheating on her.

Docket number 10863, people versus Stephanie Concolino. Wrong, Katie. No

affairs. Zero.

Zilch. Nada.

Murderer!

You killed my Charles!

Your Charles? Charles Concolino was my fiancé!

No affairs?

You got her, Amanda?

Yep. Go to jail, do not pass go.

She'll stay there if we convict her. What do you got?

Okay, friends of Charles and Stephanie say that the divorce was initially

then turned bitter just before the murder.

Charles' attorney said that Stephanie had been fine with the split, but

was demanding a bigger settlement.

Hmm, probably right around the time she found out about the new wife -to -be.

Did you have to get that? No, wrong number.

Wrong number named Mom? Keep going.

Okay, so we know that Stephanie went to Charles' dental office twice the day he

died. Once at 3 p .m., then again at 8 .15, just before the murder. Well, she

claimed she was at the theater at 8 .15.

Video suggests otherwise.

A surveillance camera in Charles' building clearly shows Stephanie when

there at...

At 8 .15, it was raining, so what we get is the back of a raincoat and hat.

Still, this woman is the same size and build as Stephanie, and most

to access the elevators after hours, she had to use her own personal electronic

key card found in Stephanie's purse. So, although we don't have a face... The

key card means it's her.

She confronts her husband at the office. There's an altercation. He ends up

dead. His throat slashed by a 150 -millimeter hook and probe, which is now

missing from the office.

And she didn't even have the compassion to use an overkeen?

How did I do?

A?

A minus?

B.

A plus. Put you in some herringbone, give you a pipe, you're a regular

Holmes. I'll take the disc over to police evidence and have them cut it for

trial.

The surprise fiancé from the arraignment is here. Oh.

The game is afoot.

Is Sherlock Holmes?

You don't get me.

So how long were you and Charles together?

Look, I just came here because the police said it might help connect that

her wife of his.

I'm not really comfortable talking about my private life.

Oh, okay.

Who's that?

Uh, that's our bureau chief.

Morning, fiance.

Uh, yes, Terrence Edgecombe, this is Beatrice Katz.

Call me Betsy, please.

I am sorry for your loss.

And I'm sorry for my outburst at the arraignment.

It's just... See, Charles and I met at the Red Cross.

I was planning a charity gala, and he was organizing one of his humanitarian

trips to Haiti for dental work.

If there's anything I can do to help, anything you want to know... Uh, you

what, Mr. Edgecombe, I think I've got some calls I need to return.

Excuse me.

Bitsy Katz, who might now be engaged to Edge, will testify that Charles was

afraid of his wife's violent temper. Did you check her alibis of her basis?

She was in Miami with her twin sister, Christy.

Bitsy and Christy? I kid you not. Wow.

Now we just have to show that Stephanie Concolino knew about the other women in

her husband's life.

His dental hygienist might know. She worked for Charles for years.

After the murder, she went down to Guatemala to take care of her mom. Since

she's back, she's been dodging calls.

Where does she know?

Same office.

He shared his space with three other dentists.

Well, you should talk to her. Make an appointment.

I hate the dentist.

Well, you're not actually going to see the dentist.

Well, why don't you make an appointment and not actually go see the dentist?

Fine.

Baby.

You made an appointment, but don't want to get your teeth cleaned. Not today.

I'm from the district attorney's office.

I don't want to be involved.

I know you were close with both of the Concolinos. That's why I can't. Why you

can't what?

Mrs. Concolino's a good lady.

You know, if you heard anything or saw anything, I can subpoena you. I can

you to testify.

Okay. Did Mrs. Concolino ever talk to you about her husband seeing other

No.

No, but... But what?

When she came in that day of the murder.

There was a fight.

Chad, tell Edge that Stephanie and Charles had a fight on the afternoon of

the... Catherine Elizabeth Peel.

What?

You tracked me down at the dentist?

Well, I left a message that I'd be in the city, and when I didn't hear back,

Tina told me where I could find you. I'm just glad you're taking care of your

teeth. Actually, I'm working.

Oh, guess who's here? Your friend from law school, Jimmy Brogan.

Catherine Elizabeth Peel.

You just got a big break on a case, and he thinks he's gonna win. Oh, really?

Mr. Brogan, the hygienist can see you now. Thank you.

So good to see you, Bernadette. Oh, you too.

So I hear you have a new boyfriend?

I can't wait to meet him.

Charles Conglino was my fiancé!

That woman.

You're telling me you don't know?

About someone claiming to be my husband's fiance? I told you there was

infidelity. Are you sure? Because the state just got a big fat clue there was.

You're telling me that you and Charles didn't have any problems? We had a fight

that afternoon. I told you. About your dog?

Yeah, that's why I went to see him. Suddenly, he went in custody of Clyde.

He didn't even like Clyde.

Okay, so no other women?

That's my friends, Pilar and Joan.

I tell them everything. They've been with me through it all, through the

divorce, through the arrest.

Ask them.

We've all been close since college.

Theta sisters have been.

We'll plan to stop by and walk Clyde every day and pick up Stephanie's mail.

Her gym membership and cable bill. I mean, do we cancel these?

No. The idea that she killed Charles, it's ridiculous.

They just fell out of love.

She wasn't mad.

She isn't insane.

The weekend they decided to separate, they came to my birthday party together.

Well, this fiancée Bitsy Katz, did Stephanie ever mention her?

No. And we talked every day.

Especially Stephanie and Pilar. What else can we be doing?

Well, Pilar, visit her in jail, keep her spirits up, be ready to testify.

Clients do best friends never heard of Bitsy Katz. Or to protect their best

friend, they're saying they didn't.

Mr. Sunshine, what else do you have?

50 cats won't talk to us because we're defending the monster that killed her

child. Stephanie's DNA was found at the crime scene. Come on. She visited her

husband's office thousands of times. His friends said they got pretty nasty

towards the end.

Well, her friends say it was all sweetness and light.

Hi. Charles' divorce lawyer said she suddenly wanted more of everything.

You're going to believe a lawyer?

And she swiped her key card at Charles' office right before the murder.

Was it forgery?

computer malfunction, you just look into the reliability of the system. Our

investigators are checking that out. Joy is on her way over now.

So that leaves us the video of a faceless woman in a raincoat.

DA hasn't delivered it yet. What, are you saying in the United States of

America, a government official will withhold evidence?

I'll check it out. Thank you.

Hey, Jimmy.

I really loved meeting your ex -wife this morning.

Hey, nice. No, we really hit it off. We made a dinner date for tomorrow night.

I think she and I could really become friends.

What do you want?

Second seat, direct on three witnesses, cross on two.

Second seat, direct on one.

I do cross. It's my thing.

Ron, I'll call the four of Mrs. Brogan and send my regrets for dinner.

You're paying me by the hour, people, and I'm ready to report.

Where'd you find out joy?

Building security system.

Stephanie Concolino has been using her key card to get in after hours. A couple

of times a week, right up until the murder.

Even after they filed for divorce? Uh -huh.

No one wants that much face time with their about -to -be ex.

Yes, Jimmy?

I plead the fifth.

So we're thinking we're bugging the system? I'm trying to pin down the

but he's always on break.

Must be a smoker. I'll check him out. And something else. There was a scuffle

before Charles went down.

Overturned tables, equipment.

The autopsy shows that Charles had a clean tox and the pectoral muscles to

a double D.

Stephanie chews two grapes and calls it a meal. So there's no way she

overpowered him? Why? Because she's small or because she's a woman? Both.

more than a woman's scorn to surprise us menfolk.

And you're dead.

I mean, not to forget your birthday.

Right.

Sorry. Measure?

Nope.

Smoking.

Tell him to give me a call.

Thanks.

Hey!

You're the lawyer for Dr. Concolino's wife?

That I am.

Listen.

What if a tenant asks a security guard to help him get a few special friends in

from time to time?

Everybody likes friends. No problem there.

What if the guard made key cards for those friends, and then that tenant

up dead?

Would that guard be in trouble?

Well, not if he had a good lawyer protecting him, he wouldn't.

These friends ladies, by any chance?

Yeah.

They came by after hours to, uh, get their cavities filled.

Hello, more than one lady. Lots.

It was a new key card every other week. I had to keep a supply.

Got one of them handy?

There's a panel by the elevator.

Definitely Concolino.

They're all in his wife's name.

All of them?

Am I going to be in trouble?

No, nobody is.

Jimmy Brogan?

From Yale?

I don't know, Dad.

Captain's mom.

What are you doing at the dentist's office?

Well, I'm here to see Catherine.

Catherine's here?

Interviewing some hygienist on a case. And then we're having lunch.

Apparently, she has a new boyfriend.

Hmm. New boyfriend, dental hygienist.

In front of that, we have so much catching up to do.

The stage theory is she who used the key card killed the dentist. Then we need

to find every woman who had one of those magic Stephanie Concolino cards before

Lady Pio manages to discover... This business with the multiple key cards,

which, by the way, was the only good thing to come out of my mother's ambush.

Once she told me Jimmy was badgering the guard, I was all over him like... Like

Dr. Concolino on a gum abscess?

What kind of idiot gives all his girlfriend's key cards in his wife's

idiot with a hell of a libido.

I tricked out the dental chair.

How many women are there? No one knows. So we have to track down all the

mistresses and nail down their alibis because every woman Jimmy finds is

suddenly going to be... Alternative suspects, uno, dos, tres.

D .S.

Affairs don't end well. It's the law of the jungle, so we need to find a few who

had motive to kill that randy dentist.

As long as they're the same shape and size as Stephanie.

So they can be the woman on this video we've heard so much about.

The guard said Charles' girlfriends would make fake appointments to signal

they were coming, so... Subpoena Dr.

Congolino's appointment records for the past year and then... Interview every

patient with a pulse and a plunging neckline to determine whether they'd

Drill.

But I'm the only one who can't make a sexualized dental job?

Just get the appointment list.

Okay.

Who's in town?

She's allegedly here to help out with my cousin's baby shower, but she just

keeps hanging around, hoping to bump into my new boyfriend.

Who doesn't actually exist.

Maybe we can get an act to play him.

I walked out on that movie.

Bella, it's my Edward.

Twilight movies?

I've seen all three. That explains a lot.

Just because we're on opposite sides doesn't mean that we can... I don't know

what's worse, your taste in movies or this Barry Manilow music.

Ah, Mandy, you just missed a couple good bands. Someone here is obsessed.

He's the greatest performer of the 20th century.

Except for Engelbert.

You the two getting the patient list?

Your name was in Dr. Concolino's appointment book fairly often, and we're

wondering if your relationship was more than professional.

Charles, I'd rather not introduce negative energy today.

Negative energy?

Were you aware that Dr. Concolino was murdered?

Besser had it coming.

Wanted to keep things casual.

I gave him the best damn weeks of my life.

Just wait till Jimmy finds her.

No worries. She's too tall to be the woman in the video.

Um, did Dr.

Concolino's wife know about your affair?

Wifey was totally clueless. And Charles even took me to one of his dental

conventions. Dental conventions?

Omaha was much more romantic than I'd imagined.

So where were you the night Charles was killed?

Atlanta. Nail product seminar.

The whole shop went.

Even from my position in third seat, that's a solid outline. Enough with the

third seat. You need to have me over a barrel.

Hey, I can threaten to have dinner with Danny, too. We're actually friends.

Danny and I have reached sort of a delicate balance, so I would like to

firewall between work and ex -marriage if you don't mind.

Okay, just so we're clear, it's blackmail over seniority. Moving on.

Who's next?

Excuse me, ma 'am. You were in Dr.

All right.

Sorry to bother you.

I knew Charles had other women that I hoped he'd see me as more than a flame.

There's no way, as long as she was in the picture.

You mean his wife?

Not his wife.

Someone else he'd been seeing on the side for years.

Someone he was serious about.

We found 11 women Charles had affairs with. Most have alibis or they're the

wrong size.

Almost all mention someone Charles was really serious about.

And a fifth X.

Should we assume it's Bitsy Katz?

She has a ring, but she's also got an alibi.

Do you see the size of that thing, Jimmy? How is it possible Stephanie

know about any of this? Oh, you'd be surprised what you can hide from your

You're speaking from personal experience?

You're second C. You're not Arbiter of my thins.

Look, we need to figure out if any of these women match the mysterious trench

coat lady in the lobby.

Which we could do, but the DA sent over all the evidence except for...

The DVD.

Hmm.

Anyone want to guess why they haven't sent over the DVD?

You lost the DVD.

I didn't lose the DVD. The police who were editing the DVD lost the DVD. Well,

that doesn't change the fact that the DVD is lost. Can you please schedule me

some time at the gun range today? I want to shoot something, and whatever that

is, I don't want it. Oh, fuck it all.

Oh, it's a motion from Jimmy to exclude any mention of the DVD.

The DVD exists, Your Honor. We have witnesses who've seen it and can

the woman. The best evidence is the DVD itself. Any secondhand description is

hearsay. People talking about some non -existent... It exists!

It was part of the police report. The evidence logger was the basis for the

arrest warrant.

It's just been misplaced. Well, then you have no problem, Ms. Peel, as long as

you find it before the trial.

The trial, that starts tomorrow morning. Call out your troops. Search the city.

My ruling is no tapey, no talky.

The defense will paint a portrait of a husband and wife amicably parting ways.

Do not fall for it.

This case is about a marriage gone horribly wrong.

Like many marriages do.

Yes, there were affairs, but Stephanie Concolino was totally in the dark about

them. She was completely deceived by a man who was secretive and manipulative

and... Once she discovered her husband's infidelity, she went to his office and

stabbed him in his own dental chair.

No one had a stronger motive to kill Charles Concolino. Unless you count the

other women who had key cards registered in his wife's name, the state has one

thing right. Charles Concolino was killed in a jealous rage, but not by his

wife.

Mrs. Concolino came in while Dr.

Concolino was with a patient, so they went into his private office.

That's when the yelling started.

I couldn't hear the words, but... I heard a smash against the wall. Later, I

saw that it was one of his dental awards.

A big one.

And what happened next?

Mrs. Concolino left.

And what was your...

Your impression of

Mrs. Concolino's demeanor?

I never seen her so angry.

During your affair with Dr.

Concolino, did you become aware he was seeing other women?

It was pretty hard not to. We were practically bumping into each other in

hallway. And to the best of your knowledge, did his wife know about these

affairs? I don't know how she couldn't have been.

But you don't know that she was aware, do you?

No. I never met the woman.

Thanks.

Yeah, I don't know what's worse for Stephanie.

Being charged with murder or having to sit there and listen to all these lies.

There were other girlfriends.

Yeah, but this top secret mistress number one makes Charles sound like the

of Siam. Well, all that matters is that Stephanie didn't know about any of it.

But she would have told me.

We talked about everything, no matter how sensitive or uncomfortable.

Like sisters.

Closer.

And yes, I'm ready to testify.

Good. Charles wanted to be an oral surgeon when he was younger.

Stephanie wanted him to start practicing right away so he could make money.

Their relationship was completely dysfunctional.

He was just so happy to be free of her.

So you and Charles were engaged?

Last May. He took me to Central Park on my birthday and popped the question.

Down on one knee.

Then he took me to Tiffany's and we picked out this ring.

What'd he say?

Down on one knee? No.

Birthday. Did he talk about his wife?

He warned me to stay away from his wife.

He said she had a violent temper. He had no idea what she might do if she found

out. You're about to be so happy you made me sick and see.

Getting proposed to on your birthday, Miss Kat.

That must have been a wonderful surprise.

I called my parents right after.

They sang me happy birthday and I told them the news.

That was May 11th?

Would it surprise you to know that Charles Concolino was at a dental

in Omaha with another girlfriend on May 11th?

Oh, that can't be right. Charles Concolino's hotel reservation and a

statement.

Well, maybe it wasn't exactly my birthday, but he did get me this ring.

Tiffany's, you said? Yes. May I?

That's a pretty old -fashioned setting. If we take this ring to Tiffany's, will

they verify that they sold it this year?

I don't know. I think so. Miss Katz, Dr.

Concolino's records show that you made 14 appointments with him in the last

year. But unlike his girlfriends, your dental appointments were actually just

dental appointments, weren't they?

No. You have that wrong.

I saw Charles all the time. But not for sex.

For root canal.

We were getting to know each other. You weren't his mistress, were you?

You were his stalker.

Everything you testified to here today was a lie, wasn't it? No, it wasn't a

lie. We were meant to be together. He just hadn't realized it yet.

That's a chubby.

Thank you.

Okay, so if it's a cat named Mr. Sex, then Mr. Sex is still out there. And a

mighty fine alternate suspect indeed.

We checked with Sister Story. She was a patient. She had intimate details of

Charles' life.

Yeah, and that very mantle of obsessed receptionist said she was there all the

time. Well, the line between freak and fiance can be very thin. She has an

alibi, right?

Yes, she was in Miami with her sister. Real sister, real Miami. I checked.

Oh.

Can you give me one minute?

Yeah.

I thought we were meeting later.

I don't know why I don't do this more. Come see you work.

This room is so majestic.

You've never mentioned it. I guess I see it every day.

Catherine, you have always been so private, even as a little girl.

And with all this distance between us, it's almost 100 miles.

And your schedule, which is, well, who knows how you do it.

I just don't know much about your life.

So I'm left to guess and worry, which is why I push.

I'm fine.

Really. Are you? I see a little of what this job is, what it would take out of a

person, out of you.

And I just think that you would be happier if you had someone there at the

of the day.

Yeah.

Well, about that, um... Hey, Quick has a question for you.

Oh, I'll be right there.

I could kiss you.

Are we sure this fruitcake bitsy was in Miami?

Unfortunately, yes.

And the other 11?

All got pushed aside to make room for the mystery woman.

Ergo... None of them is the mystery woman.

I know I'm the low man on the totem pole on this trial, but even we underlings

can contribute.

Give. Ah, Charles Concolino. His dental conventions. He flew, right?

My husband has a friend at the TSA who took a peek at the flight manifest to

who else was on those flights. What woman was on more than one of them?

And... Mistress X?

It doesn't say Mistress X.

No, it says Pilar Shirazi.

Boom.

Stephanie's best friend?

Yeah, closer than sisters.

Ain't life a bitch?

Pilar? Yeah?

That's just not possible. But it's true.

All these other women and now my best friend.

From what we can tell, it was serious.

Stephanie, you think it's possible that Pilar killed him because of the other

affairs?

I don't know what to think anymore.

Sure, accept his offense, then we point to Mr. Sex, then we expose Pilar Shirazi

on the stand.

Your husband and her best friend lying to her face. How could they do that?

Getting caught sucks, trust me. When you turn out to not be the person you hoped

you were, you fight like... Hell, to not let the ones you love find out, but

you rarely get away with it. Can you give me a minute?

Hey, Danny, what's up?

How come you never change the scoreboard?

I like a little consistency.

You forgot his jersey.

The game's Sunday at five, right? Yeah, promise me you're not going to yell at

the refs this time. Unless he makes a bad call.

Wait, hold on a second.

Look, I'm sorry.

I don't care if you yell at some stupid referee.

No, all I did, the affairs.

I know you are.

No, really.

Really.

I'm sorry.

It wasn't the affairs that did us in, Jimmy.

We were already broken.

It was your 80 -hour work weeks. It was building this.

You wanted this.

Need me to stick around?

Danny, I gotta... Mark.

In the course of your work at the movie theater concession stand, did you come

to know Stephanie Concolino?

Yeah, a regular regular.

Medium popcorn, no butter, diet soda.

Plus, I remember all the hot ones.

Do you remember seeing her at the theater on the night in question?

Yeah, she just ordered the diet soda. It was weird.

Isn't it possible that she just ordered a diet soda on some other night?

Yeah.

That was the night some kids threw up in the men's room and I had to clean it

up. I remember that, and Mrs.

Concolino seemed kind of off.

Off?

How so?

I handed her the popcorn. I had it ready for her, you know, and she didn't even

say thank you, just walked away.

And when I came out of the men's room later, she was hanging out near there,

the ladies' room is at the other end of the hall.

Most of the ladies Dr.

Concolino did his thing with would come and go.

He was only really concerned about one in particular.

And was this particular woman his wife, Stephanie?

No.

This was a special friend.

I never saw her, but a couple times she was with him during office hours, and he

sent down word to keep the others away.

What were you supposed to do if another girlfriend showed up when this special

friend was with him?

Tell her he'd gone.

Tell her the elevator was broken. If I had to, ring the fire alarm.

Stephanie volunteered at an animal shelter.

The idea that she could hurt anyone doesn't make sense.

There are many conversations with you.

Did she ever express feelings of anger or resentment toward her husband?

No. They were going through a divorce, but they both knew it was for the best.

And you knew it was for the best because you were having an affair with Charles,

right?

What? Isn't that why they're getting a divorce?

So Charles can be with you?

Only you and Charles forgot to tell that to Stephanie.

That's ridiculous.

So it was just a coincidence that you sat next to Charles when he flew to San

Francisco for a convention six months ago?

Objection, Your Honor.

Relevant? It's coming, Your Honor. Promise?

I'll allow subject to connection.

That was a coincidence. I was visiting a friend. I was surprised to see Charles

in the plane.

Oh, and were you surprised to see him on your flight to Las Vegas three months

before that?

That.

Was just a friendly weekend child knew I like to gamble and definitely doesn't

six months before that flying to Honolulu

Death I'm

sorry We just fell in love You

fell in love with Charles yes

Well, how did you feel when you discovered that he had 11 other

What? No. Why are you doing this? Where were you the night Charles Concolino,

the man you loved, who had 11 other girlfriends, was killed?

You think I killed Charles? Did you? No. I was at home. I went to bed early. You

see anyone that night?

Talk to anyone that night.

No. Why should we believe her?

You've been lying to your best friend for years.

Stephanie, I didn't...

Sorry,

I'm late.

I tried to call. There's no cell coverage in here.

Okay, I spent the day getting everything I could on Pilar Shirazi. Credit card

statements, phone records, figure out what her deal.

You're going to see Sandra Bullock?

This is where Stephanie Concolino says she was the night of the murder.

So, she could have slipped out five minutes later and killed her husband.

But, before she did, she was hanging out down here by the men's room.

Why?

Did anybody even use these anymore?

Maybe if they have no cell coverage.

Did Pilar make or receive any calls that night?

On the stand, she said she didn't talk to anyone.

Big liar.

She received a phone call to her cell phone an hour before the murder. It

nine minutes.

What number was it from?

I guess I did get a call. I didn't remember.

It was a memory lapse.

You sure about that?

You sure you didn't deliberately lie about receiving a call from your friend?

I don't know who it was from. Well, the records show that that call was made

from a payphone in the lobby of the theater where the defendant claims to

been that night.

Did you have any other friends at that theater that night?

Stephanie called all the time. We talked every day.

But you don't remember this call.

Made when your friend was acting kind of off an hour before her husband was

murdered. Objection. Counsel's testifying.

Sustained.

Why did she call you, Ms. Shirazi? I told you, I don't remember the call. Was

she calling to tell you she discovered her husband's multiple affairs?

No. Was she angry? No. Did she tell you she was going to kill her husband?

Objection!

Sustained. Ms. Shirazi, are you lying about that call to cover for your

A friend you feel so guilty about betraying, you don't want to tell us

rage against her husband.

Rage that caused her to storm out of that theater and go over to his dental

office. Objection! That's not right. That's not it.

Your Honor.

You're still out?

Yep. Probably flipping coins by now.

Heads it's Stephanie, tails it's Pilar.

Thank you for your vote of confidence.

Chad, why don't you have a girlfriend?

I mean, one girlfriend.

I like my freedom.

Freedom's pretty good. Anybody looking for a DVD?

What? Cops found it under a filing plate.

Told you it wasn't my fault.

Could be Stephanie.

Could be Pilar.

And your mother called.

You're not going to eat?

No, I'm waiting for a verdict. I'm too nervous.

Does this new boyfriend of yours ever wait for the jury with you?

Okay, I know I'm too private.

And I will tell you, yes, it would be nice to have someone there at the end of

the day.

Especially my day.

But...

I don't want just any somebody.

I like my life.

I love my work. It thrills me, what I do, how I spend my days. Do you

that?

There is no boyfriend, is there?

Sorry I'm late, hon.

Hey.

Bernadette, I'm sorry.

We should have told you, but Katie and I have been trying to keep it quiet,

giving her a job and all. What are

you doing?

Trying to make your mom a little less worried about you. Is that so bad?

Verdict's in.

Mr. Foreman, has the jury reached a verdict?

We have, Your Honor.

On the charge of murder in the second degree, we find the defendant, Stephanie

Concolino, guilty.

Ladies and gentlemen, the state thanks you for your service.

You are dismissed and we are adjourned.

Talk to your lawyer.

He's going to appeal. He thinks you have a good chance.

You know what my best chance is?

Telling the truth in exchange for a lighter sentence.

I'll deny it. Which might work if I didn't have a murder weapon.

I watched you get rid of that. You watched me get rid of a silver pen I

onto the hook and probe as insurance.

You grabbed it first so your DNA is all over it.

What good is it to drag us both down? Don't even.

I kept quiet so we could both get off, but if you think I'm going down alone

a crime we committed together... I was fine with Charles sleeping with sluts.

were getting divorced anyway, but you... We were not serious.

My best friend, I'm waiting for you at the movies like an idiot.

I call to find out where you are and I hear that damn Barry Manilow music.

I love the look on your face when I told you about the others.

He went after Charles before he finished my sentence.

Destinate. Prison will be fun.

Just like being back in the sorority house.
