Previously on When Calls the Heart There was a terrible explosion in the mine.

You murdered half the men in this town. I'm Bill Avery. I'm a forensic

investigator. I'm here to build a case against the mining company. All you're

going to do is further hurt Abigail Stanton.

He's married with a child.

It was the most enchanting evening of my entire life.

What will the next chapter bring?

Pleasure to meet you, Miss Laveau. And what brings you here? My fiancé. You

barely know this Elizabeth Thatcher.

But I hope over time you're going to see that my heart is true. This is where I

belong.

It's teacher. Oh, let's go ask her.

Good morning, Ms. Hatcher.

Good morning, children.

Are you enjoying your break?

Yeah. When do we get to go back to school?

Well, we have to build a church first.

When's that?

Soon. And then we'll have a new school. Great.

See you later. Bye.

Ready for your writing lesson?

Of course.

Why shouldn't I be?

Well, it's just that you seem a little queasy.

I meant happy.

Must be because of that kiss.

Oh.

Did we kiss?

Gosh, I don't remember.

Well, I'd be happy to refresh your memory.

Maybe we should start my lesson now?

Sure. But can I just say, that was the best kiss I've ever had.

Wait, how many women have you kissed?

Not too many. Five, maybe.

Did I say five? I meant two. You and my mother. You expect me to believe that?

All right.

Now, how exactly am I supposed to... Get up!

All right.

Now, how do I get him to move?

You just tap your heels gently against your sides.

Whoa.

I'm so sorry. When I said, whoa, I didn't mean stop. I was just surprised.

Elizabeth, he's smart, but you really can't hold a conversation with him.

Try it again.

Come on.

All right, how do I get him to slow down?

I said slow down. I didn't say stop.

We can go as slow as you like.

Jack, Jack, look.

I'm worried, Jack.

This trial means everything to Abigail.

Do you think there's even a chance they'll clear Noah Stanton's name?

I'm not so sure anymore.

I thought it was good news when we lost Jedediah Black, but the new judge makes

the old coot look like a saint.

Do you know the new judge?

No, not personally.

Best thing we can do is take it one day at a time.

And then Jack and I saw a couple of executives that the mining company must

have sent for the trial.

They were talking to Gowan.

And the judge was there too.

I don't know what's going to happen, but I'm glad we're finally going to have our

day in court.

I'm sure that Bill Avery will have evidence strong enough to prove your

case. I'm not sure about anything when it comes to Bill Avery.

Have you spoken to him yet? After seeing his wedding ring and that picture of his

family?

I'll be interested to hear how he explains that.

You might want to do it before you're sitting next to him at the prosecutor's

table. This is the last thing I needed before the trial.

I know.

But the good news is I hear that the attorney prosecuting the case is one of

the best.

From your lips to God's ears.

Yeah.

Oh,

it's ironic, isn't it?

We should be happy we finally have the money for our new church and school.

And instead, we're all worried about this trial.

Lawrence, I've always found that the best way to wash away worry is through

prayer. Who are you all waiting for?

The prosecutor of the state is like, what do we even know about this Sam

Madison? We know he is willing to come out here and fight for us.

I dated a Sam Madison once.

Or was it Sam Mason?

Who can remember?

Maybe you should keep a list.

Well, that is a great idea.

I suppose it would start with Jack.

Too bad it won't end with him. You never know.

Oh, look.

Too bad we lost Black.

Might have been tough, but at least he was fair.

I wish the same could be said for Parker.

Good morning, Abigail.

Is it?

This is the first time I've had a welcoming committee.

Usually I'm met by a few guns and a marshal.

Sorry to disappoint you. You would be... Madison.

Samantha Madison.

You're the prosecutor?

In the flesh.

I don't mean to sound surprised, but... I'm a woman. It's fine.

I'm used to it.

Constable Jack Thornton.

Welcome.

I'm Bill Avery.

I'm the forensic expert in this case, and I must say, I am surprised.

I trust you'll recover.

I certainly won't.

Did you attend law school? I even graduated.

Stanford, class of 1910, valedictorian.

I'm Abigail Stanton. Welcome to Cole Valley. A pleasure, Mrs. Stanton. I read

all your correspondence, and I want to assure you and all the widows here that,

despite the fact I'm wearing a skirt, the case for the mining company is in

capable hands.

Well, I'd prefer someone else's hands. Thank you very much. Duly noted, but for

now, it's mine.

And I'll use a fist if need be.

Where can I find Judge Parker?

I believe he just checked into the Saloon Hotel.

Thank you.

If you'll excuse me, ladies.

Gentlemen.

Do you think she stands any chance against that pit bull on Gowan's

payroll? Honestly, I think he's going to make a fool of her.

And the rest of us.

Glad you could get here on such short notice, Judge.

I was quite surprised to hear about Jedediah Black's sudden departure.

You didn't have anything to do with that now, did you, Mr. Gowan?

The man got bit by a rattlesnake.

Yes, in his room.

An unfortunate situation.

Judge Parker.

That would be me.

I'm Samantha Madison.

The prosecutor.

Oh.

Pleasure to meet you.

This is Mr.

Gallant and Counselor Gentry.

Pleasure. Ma'am.

Miss Madison, have you ever tried a case before?

I've prosecuted a fair share, but this will be my first trial.

So how can I help you?

Well, considering you seem to be fraternizing with the defense... Not

fraternizing. Defense requested a pre-trial consultation. That's all.

I see.

Well, I would like to ask for a continuance under the Power of Courts

Act, Section 173.

Well, I have a poker game this evening.

As long as I'm winning, you can have the weekend.

A week would be better. As I said, you have 48 hours.

Trial starts at 9 a.m. sharp.

Well, I will be ready.

Good day, gentlemen.

Good afternoon.

Does she have much trial experience?

How could she? She's a woman.

Which means she has to be twice as good to have made it this far in a man's

world. Should we try to get someone else?

She's a prosecutor appointed by the state.

Let's be realistic.

The chances of her winning this trial is slim to none. You gave me a chance

without knowing me. Why not give her one? Oh, easy for you to say.

You didn't lose anybody in that mine.

Florence, Elizabeth is on our side.

You're right, Florence, I didn't.

But you entrusted me with your children, and I hope I'm teaching them to judge

people based on who they are inside.

Not whether they're wearing pants or a skirt. What you don't seem to understand

is that this Madison woman could lose this trial for all of us. She could win

it, too.

And I plan to.

But I won't lie to you ladies.

We have our work cut out for us.

Did you speak to Judge Parker?

I did.

And I convinced him to give us a continuance for 48 hours.

I'm surprised.

Since everyone in town knows he's in Mr. Gowan's pocket.

We can't dwell on what we can't change.

I couldn't have said that better myself.

How can we help?

We need to develop a winning strategy.

Establish a solid fact pattern.

What I mean by that is I need you to tell me every little detail leading up

to the explosion.

Don't leave anything out.

I want to know everything you remember, no matter how small.

Well, would you like some coffee and pie?

I do my best work over pie.

Oh, uh, please, join us.

How'd it go?

She likes pie.

She's very capable.

Well, it's good.

Abigail, you might want to take a piece of that pie to the judge. He strikes me

as a man who likes dessert.

Isn't that a bribe?

I'm sure he's seen bigger bribes than pie.

Oh, he can't be that bad.

He is the nephew of Isaac Parker, the hanging judge.

And the apple doesn't fall far from the tree?

Well, let's just say I have heard he has a unique interpretation of justice.

Well, maybe a little dessert couldn't hurt.

So, Bill...

How long do you figure to continue this charade?

I don't know what you're talking about. Well, I believe you do.

People will find out sooner or later.

It's a very small town.

Gentlemen.

Maybe we should do this another time.

What other time is there?

Abigail, I wouldn't.

Would you care to join us?

No, Your Honor.

And may I ask what you're doing here?

I believe it's quite clear. And I'm quite certain it's illegal to fraternize

with the defendant.

Well, I think it's also illegal for you to break into my office and steal

company property.

You should have them arrested for burglary. Calm down, Mr. Gallo.

He's just upset because he's losing.

You interrupt.

I'm in.

I insist you stop playing.

You know, if you continue to interrupt this game, the judge here may find you

in contempt of court. This isn't a court. It's a saloon. It's my court, and

right now it's my card game.

Then may I suggest you take three more cards?

Because you're not going to win with a pair of twos.

Constable, would you please escort this woman out?

She's right, Judge.

This looks like a clear violation of the ethics code.

You're hardly the right man to speak to ethics now, are you, Bill?

especially in front of Mrs. Stanton. I was talking to the judge, Gowan. Yeah,

you know he's not the gentleman you think he is. I don't think you have room

to talk about ethics either, Mr. Gowan.

Perhaps you should teach them both a lesson, having to spend the night in

jail. If they don't leave, that's exactly what I'm going to do.

You have something to say, young lady?

No one's going to jail today, Judge.

Have a lovely afternoon.

All right.

Deal him up.

Oh, I really wanted to give that man a piece of my mind. I suggest we don't

give Parker any more reason to side with Gallagher. What he's doing is unethical.

Abigail.

Is there something wrong?

You tell me, Mr. Avery.

Oh, we're back to Mr. Avery.

What happened to Bill? He's married with a child.

Could I have a moment alone with you to explain?

I have some work to do at the jail. I have some papers to grade. Elizabeth,

please stay.

Whatever you have to say to me, you can say it in front of Elizabeth.

Are you sure about that? It's fine, Elizabeth.

I have nothing to hide.

You saw the picture in my room.

And the wedding ring on your dresser.

I'm not married.

I was.

My son died two years ago.

I lost my wife a week later.

I'm... I'm so sorry.

Now may I have that moment alone?

I have customers waiting.

Don't worry about that, Abigail.

I can take care of the cafe myself.

If you need help at the cafe, Abigail, I'm more than happy to pitch in. I'm a

wonderful cook. In fact, the biscuits at Delmonico's in New York are my recipe.

Of course they are.

Thank you.

I won't be long.

Oh, take all the time you need.

I'm so sorry. I feel terrible for the thoughts I've had about you.

Oh, don't.

They're probably half true anyway.

The truth is, Abigail, I never thought I would have feelings for another woman

again until I met you.

So...

Are we all right again?

I suppose we are.

Good.

Well, I guess I should get back before Elizabeth burns down my kitchen.

I don't see any flames.

It has been a while since I've taken the afternoon off.

Pass me the salt, will you?

Oh, and flip your steak. Otherwise, it's going to burn.

No, not like that.

I don't recall signing up to work for you.

Oh, am I being too bossy? My apologies.

Thank you.

I just have such a way with cooking, and from what I hear, you don't. Who told

you that?

Oh, Jack may have mentioned it. Jack has barely even tried my cooking.

Perhaps there's a reason for that.

Jack.

You know, I'm really not that hungry after all.

Let's get you a table.

No, not there. Here.

It's a much better view.

He doesn't need a view of Main Street. He sees it all day, every day.

I'm just going to get something and take it back to the jail.

You'll do no such thing. My chicken fried steak will not be eaten in that

dirty jail.

Neither will mine.

You both made chicken fried steak? Well, I did. I'm not sure Elizabeth's can be

identified. Although, Mr. Avery is a forensic expert.

I'm just going to take a coffee, Black.

Thank you.

And?

And your chicken fried steak.

Coming right up.

Honestly, Elizabeth, don't you think you're being a bit selfish, insisting

that he eat your steak when you know mine is better?

Well, that's just your opinion.

Well, if it's true what they say, that the way to a man's heart is through his

stomach, you could be accused of attempted murder.

That is a lot of food. Well, you worked so hard protecting the town. Actually, I

haven't done much all day.

Jack, I know I'm not the greatest cook.

I've never cooked at Delmonico's or anywhere else for that matter. But I did

spend the last hour cooking over a hot stove.

And we both know that if you don't eat this, no one else will.

Except his dog, Rip.

I'll keep this warm for you.

I'm sorry for interrupting.

Oh, not a problem, then.

I'm just glad Truda's telegram came for you. I think it might be important.

It's from my father.

My mother's taken ill.

They want me home as soon as possible.

Well, I was barely 18 when I met Noah.

So young to fall in love.

Not much older than my son Peter would have been right now.

Anyway, he asked me to marry him the same night that I met him.

What did you say?

No, of course.

But then somehow, two weeks later, we were standing in front of a preacher.

I guess my no wasn't very convincing.

What about you?

How did you propose to your wife?

Well, believe it or not, she proposed to me.

Really? We had our differences, but she put up with me.

Well, I guess we were both lucky in love.

For a little while, anyway.

Does something be said for second chances?

Jack. Elizabeth.

I'm going with you.

To Hamilton?

Yeah, I need to make sure you get there safely.

Are you sure?

No, positive.

Plus, I got a chance to catch up with my brother.

So, don't even think about giving me an argument.

I wasn't planning on it.

I'm so worried, Jack.

It's gonna be okay.

Don't worry, I'll look after things.

And keep an eye on Gowan. I'll keep two eyes on him.

Ruby, and my thoughts and my prayers.

I'll feel better once I'm there.

Take good care of her, Jack.

I will.

Abigail, Mr.

Avery.

This is Joseph Sweeney.

He'll be testifying for us. Thank you for coming all this way, Mr. Sweeney. My

conscience wouldn't allow me to do anything less.

I knew your husband and son.

They were fine men.

And completely innocent of all wrongdoing.

I agree.

Unfortunately, Mr. Sweeney is not in possession of our mine inspection

report. I've left my job at the Bureau of Mines.

Started up my own business.

Drill presses.

Haven't made a dime yet, but these things take time.

Mr. Sweeney, you do realize we're not going to be able to pay you for your

testimony.

Oh.

Of course.

But I can give you breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

I'm sure you're hungry after your trip.

Well, I wouldn't turn down a meal.

Right this way.

As I recall, Noah contacted you directly.

Is that right?

Yes. About safety conditions in the mine. He was concerned the ventilation

system wasn't functioning properly.

That's exactly what Noah told me.

Do you remember what you said in your inspection report?

I found the system to be unsafe, and I recommended they suspend operation until

it was fixed.

And you're prepared to testify to that?

In a court of law.

Even though the report Gowan has on record tells a different story.

That report is a blatant forgery.

I knew it.

I was hoping to have another witness to back up your testimony, but it didn't

pan out. So our case will depend on you.

You're all we've got.

It's the truth.

And I'm happy to testify to it.

Thank you, Mr. Sweeney.

It's past time my husband was vindicated.

Tell me, Elizabeth, what exactly did you pack in these?

Just the essentials.

Did the essentials include an anvil?

I would be more than happy to carry my own suitcases.

Really?

Okay.

Be my guest.

All right, you've made your point.

I'm sure Father sent the car.

Elizabeth Thatcher.

Regina Allen, how are you? I'm fine, but I heard about your mother. I hope the

poor dear is all right.

That's why I came as soon as I could.

Regina, this is Constable Jack Thornton.

Charmed. Yeah.

Well, aren't you lucky to have such a handsome fellow to carry your luggage?

Oh, no, no, he's not here to carry my luggage. That's my train.

Mother procured an introduction with an Austrian count.

Yes, a castle.

With a huge moat.

It's so very good to see you, ma chérie.

A bientôt.

A bientôt.

For any years.

Might be stretching it. Good, because she judges a man by the size of his

moat.

Gina is one of the Philadelphia Allens.

Very upper crust.

Her family's been around forever.

Like the plague.

Jack?

There's the car. Come on, Jack.

Do you guys hear that?

What is it?

Hey, guys, get over here.

Well,

I've never seen a vehicle like this one.

That's funny. You're not looking at the vehicle.

I have excellent peripheral vision.

What do you call it?

It's called a motorcycle.

It looks fast.

Oh, it is.

And dangerous.

Can be.

What brings you to Coal Valley?

Oh, I don't know.

A little this, a little that.

A man of mystery.

I like it.

Well, I'll keep that in mind.

And Jack, dear.

So good to see you. You too, Julie.

How's Mother? I've been so worried.

She's better today, but she's still having fainting spells.

I didn't know.

You might if you visited more often.

Viola.

You know I'd come home more often if I could.

Jack, this is my sister Viola.

Nice to meet you, Miss Thatcher. So this is the Mountie we've heard so much

about? Always much more than that.

Well, you did kiss.

Julie! I wrote to you in confidence?

Apparently it's more than teaching schools keeping you away.

My three daughters all together.

A sight for sore eyes.

Father.

I'm so happy to see you.

Your mother's doing better?

She'll do much better now that you're here.

Father, this is Jack.

Constable Jack Thornton.

Good to put a face to the name.

I'm indebted to you for escorting my daughter home. Glad to be of service,

sir.

Jack, we're having a dinner party tomorrow night and you simply must come.

Julie, don't put him on the spot.

I'm sure the constable has other things to do.

I'm sure Jack could spare a few hours.

I wouldn't want to impose.

It's no imposition.

Well, then I suppose it's settled.

Come along, girls.

I'll catch up in a minute.

Well, at least it doesn't have a moat.

It doesn't have a guillotine either.

I'm guessing the rack's in the basement.

Mm, mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Why don't I meet you in town?

We can see some of the city together.

Well, uh, you sure you won't be missed?

It's a pretty big house.

Mother, you have no idea how worried I've been.

I'll be fine, darling.

I don't want you worrying about me.

I want you to have a good time with your sisters while you're here.

Well, what does Dr. Clement say?

He says your mother has a weak heart.

It's important that nothing upset her right now.

Maybe we should cancel the dinner party. Nonsense.

We must celebrate your return home.

It's just a few old family friends.

And Viola's new beau, Sir Lionel.

Viola? You didn't tell me.

You didn't ask.

Sir Lionel's from London.

He's a duke.

His uncle is Grand Duke Andrew Grey, and his great uncle is an earl.

Darling, I'm sure you'll want to shop for something new to wear to the party.

No, that won't be necessary.

This isn't the Wild West, Elizabeth.

We do still dress for dinner here.

Oh, wait until you see the new gowns at Salon du Mode.

The organzas are pure heaven.

Well, I suppose it might be nice to have something new.

And perhaps a little fancy. Oh, good.

It'll be just like old times.

Mother seems to be in good spirits.

Because you're here, but it isn't easy taking care of her.

Well, I wish I could be home more often, but I have school to teach.

Books and education, it's a wonderful way to escape.

It isn't an escape.

I love what I do. I'm sure you do.

But when I get married, who's going to look after mother?

Well, I will.

You can barely look after yourself.

And with father traveling so much, what will happen if her condition worsens?

Let's not think of the worst.

Viola can be so tedious.

Some of what she said was true.

No, it's not.

Let's be fair.

It is a great deal of responsibility.

Don't let it bother you. She lives to lord it over us.

Is Sir Lionel really serious about her?

Well, he's serious about her bank account.

And she's in love with his title.

A match made in heaven.

I am never going to get used to waiters wearing tuxedos. It's called white glove

service, Jack.

At Abigail's, the food is great and nobody is wearing gloves.

At least admit it was delicious.

Salisbury steak is just a fancy name for hamburger.

Well, it does come with a sauce.

Speaking of fancy, can you picture a rip with a haircut like that?

Life in the big city does take some getting used to, but I got used to life

in Coal Valley and now I'm completely at home there.

Really? Mm-hmm. You still don't know how to ride a horse.

It's a good thing I have such a good teacher, then.

I don't know. You might not be able to afford him.

Oh. Could cost you another kiss.

Consider it a down payment.

Court is in session.

Ms. Madison, your opening statement.

Your Honor, this tragedy could have been prevented.

Had it, the women in this courtroom would have husbands, fathers, and sons.

Instead, they sit here alone, hoping for some small sliver of justice.

I will prove to you today that the Pacific Northwest Mining Company knew

that the conditions in that mine were unsafe.

They knew because Noah Stanton warned them.

And they didn't care.

All they cared about was removing as much coal as they could to make as much

money as they could.

Counsel?

Your Honor, may I first say that it is my greatest pleasure to stand here

before you in this courtroom.

Now, tell me everything of Mystical Valley.

Oh, the mining company's on trial. We'll get to that later. I want to know about

Jack. You already know more than you should.

Well, I'm your favorite sister.

You're supposed to tell me everything.

Well, when we're together, it's like everything in the whole world just fades

away, and it's just the two of us.

Well, is it love?

It could be.

Has he said it?

No. Have you?

Of course not.

Oh, it must be so wonderful to be in love.

Charles?

Elizabeth. I must say, frontier life suits you.

It's so wonderful to see you again.

You as well.

Chas came to drop off some paperwork, but he may have had an ulterior motive.

Guilty as charged.

I never pass up a chance to see Elizabeth.

It's been far too long.

When was the last time we saw each other?

As I recall, since I was your escort at Julie's W-Town, Paul.

No. Was it really that long ago?

You dare say? We have a great deal to catch up on.

Beginning with how Father managed to corral you into working for him.

I'd hardly say corral.

He's given me a wonderful opportunity for which I'm very grateful.

As am I.

He's been a valuable addition to the company.

Charles, I hope you'll be joining us for dinner this evening.

Oh, I wouldn't miss it. Oh, wonderful.

Elizabeth, why don't you take Charles out to the garden? I know he hasn't seen

it in a long time.

Oh, I'm sure Charles isn't interested in flowers, Mother.

On the contrary, I'm very interested.

All right.

Your Honor, this document from the Bureau of Mines, signed by Joseph

Sweeney, who is here today, proved that the mine was safe and the ventilation

system was working.

We believe it was Noah Stanton who failed to activate the system on that

fateful day. That document was forged, which I'll prove by calling my first

witness. Mr. Sweeney?

Finally, the moment of truth.

His personal testimony is going to carry a lot more weight than that phony piece

of paper.

Mr. Sweeney, is it true you performed an inspection of the mine at the request of

Noah Stanton, who believed the ventilation system in the mine was

faulty?

I did.

I see.

And could you please tell the court what that inspection revealed?

I reported that Mr. Stanton was wrong.

The ventilation system in the area where the men were working was safe.

Permission to treat the witnesses hostile?

Granted.

Mr. Sweeney.

May I remind you that you are under oath? And yesterday in the presence of

Constable Avery and Abigail Stanton, didn't you say that the mine was unsafe?

And the document in the possession of the mining company was a forgery.

I'm sorry.

I... I couldn't bear to tell Mrs. Stanton the truth with all that she's

been through. I just... I couldn't do it. Your Honor, this man is a liar.

Clearly he's been paid off to recant.

Order in the court. Your Honor.

This is a clear case of negligence on the part of Noah Stanton, who simply

failed to activate the ventilation system. Objection. That's complete

speculation. Mr. Gentry's statement has no foundation, and I move to have it

stricken from the record. Hear, hear.

Hear, hear.

It's about time the truth came out. Order in the court.

Your Honor, I need a recess.

So ordered.

We're adjourned.

Right.

Don't you dare get in that stage.

You walk back in there, and you tell them the truth right now.

Who got you, huh?

Gallant gentry? What'd they promise you?

More than chicken pot pie.

You won't get away with this, or I'll have you prosecuted for perjury.

It's beautiful out here, isn't it?

Well, the view just got a whole lot better.

You like to take walks in the woods, do you?

Oh, I do. You never know what new things you might discover.

Miss Laveau, did you follow me?

Of course not.

So it's just a coincidence that we happen to run into each other out here.

Well, I like to think of it as fate.

I believe in making my own fate. Somehow I could tell that about you.

But I thought I was the man of mystery. Oh, but I like solving mysteries.

Well, the trial is probably resuming soon. I should be getting back.

I can't help but wonder why a stranger would be interested in that trial.

Just curious. Curiosity killed the cat. Well, this cat has nine lives.

If you'll excuse me.

Seated. Miss Madison, do you have any other evidence?

Your Honor, in light of the fact Mr.

Sweeney just perjured himself, I would like to... Miss Madison, do you have any

other evidence to present?

I move for a mistrial.

Overruled.

You're going to make your closing statement.

Yes. Do you know where I could find a Mr. Sam Madsen?

Miss Madison, actually. Yeah, she's right in here.

You know, I happen to be heading that way myself. Why don't I walk you in?

Come on.

Clearly, that safety report was falsified.

And if you can believe that, you can draw only one conclusion.

Noah Stanton is innocent.

Innocent of any wrongdoing in the death of those men.

The fault lies squarely upon the shoulders of Pacific Mining, who's...

Excuse me, Your Honor, pardon the interruption, but I believe Miss Madison

needs to speak with this young lady.

I hope I'm not too late.

I'm just on time.

Thank God he decided to come.

Miss Madison, would you like to tell me why exactly you're disturbing these

proceedings?

Do you have any idea who she is?

No, but Samantha mentioned she was hoping to have another witness.

Your Honor, I would like to call one more witness.

Objection. Overruled.

This better be good.

Your Honor, this woman can exonerate Noah Stanton and prove the mine report

was forged by the mining company.

This is outrageous.

I'll decide what's outrageous.

All right.

Miss, would you like to tell the court just who you are?

Claire Stanton.

Peter Stanton's widow.

Oh my God.

Peter never said anything.
