Teeth capped, I'm sure.

You know, she's got the money.
She can afford to be that much

prettier than me.

That bitch is

There's no way

- Connie Romano, 28,
nursing student.

Just before hightailing out
of the High Point Apartment

parking garage in Hamilton,
New Jersey.

Presumably in that
2012 Hyundai.

Dr. Melissa Alden, 30,
pediatric shrink.

Found with a single 9mm bullet
lodged in her skull.

Sadly for her,
it wasn't a kill shot.

She survived the bullet,
only to be stomped to death.

- Witnesses?

- Just one functional
security camera.

Caught an unidentified white
male with a neck tattoo

exiting a vehicle, carrying
a gun, silencer attached.

A second unidentified party,
likely female,

behind the wheel.
- Stomped to death?

Something personal.
- Local cops talked

to Dr. Alden's fiancé,
a plastic surgeon.

Connie Romano
is his ex-girlfriend

as of six months ago.
- I'm guessing Connie wasn't

happy about his
engagement to Melissa.

- Connie was totally
obsessed with Melissa.

Her cloud account's busting
with photos of Melissa

from the ex-fiancé's Facebook.

She paired them up with photos
of her own with the fiancé

from happier times.

Man, that's rough.

- Luckily, most of us
get over it.

- CID have any evidence
that Connie's fleeing

the jurisdiction?
- She has a Sinaloa Cartel

connection through
her cousin, Ernesto Cruz.

When she was 16, Connie
and Cruz were caught in Texas

with 57 handguns in their car.

Cruz did eight years
for gunrunning,

Connie got probation.
- So we're worried she might

run to her Cartel friends
across the border.

- That's where I'd go.

- Any excuse to get
a good mole.

- Get a beat on cousin Ernesto,
put an agent on him.

- It was all falling
into place.

I had, uh, just got an offer
from a practice in Oahu.

Um, Melissa had scored
a job there.

We were gonna get
married on the beach.

And we were weeks away.
[sighs]

I'm sorry, it's just--

she was so kind, she was the...

- We're very sorry, Dr. Pierce.
- Never, in a million years,

capable of something like this.

I mean, our--our breakup,

- Amicable means nothingto somebody like Connie.

Have you spoken to hersince you broke up?

- No, not since, um,
she moved out.

- Now, you told the police thatyou didn't recognize any of her

accomplicesin the surveillance photos.

- Well, you couldn't

connection to a Mexican cartel?

- No, she's not even Mexican.

This is a nightmare.

Look, am--am I in danger?

I was at the coffee shop

and this woman came up to me.
She was in a uniform.

A security guard.
And she said that she worked

in Melissa's building,
and that I had the right

to know that Melissa
entertained other men.

- Can you describe her?
- Like, a hat, sunglasses,

I think she was Latin,
not too tall.

I didn't think much of it.

Look, maybe if I had taken it

a little more seriously, I--
I could've--

I don't know, I...

- Looks like a hurricane
hit this place.

Keep hope alive.
Denial meets delusion.

- Connie wouldn't see
anything to deny or delude

herself about.
To a psychopath, only their

feelings matter.
Whatever the other person might

feel never enters their
calculus, except to manipulate.

This is Connie's mom.

- I think somebody
made a mistake.

My daughter's not a bad person.
- Please take a seat.

If anybody made a mistake,
we'll find out.

This is your first time in yourdaughter's apartment, isn't it?

- Well, between her work
and her studies,

Connie doesn't really
have time to--

- To take careof her own mother?

When was the last timeyou saw her?

- Two months ago.
I asked her for help

with my bills,
she turned me down.

- Where would she go
if she was in trouble?

- I-I don't really know
who's in her life these days.

- What about her father?
- [laughs]

We haven't seen Mateo
in 20 years.

Connie was eight when he left.
I raised her myself.

- You've done a good job.

Well, except for that timein Texas.

[tense music]

- Yeah, that was my mistake.
I sent her to El Paso

to stay with my sister
and her husband.

They have three daughters, and
I thought it'd be good for her.

- Instead, she hit it off
with her cousin Ernesto.

We've been trying to find him.
- Nobody knows where he is.

- Just pulled this
out of the laundry hamper.

Looks like someone tried
to get a wine stain out.

No luck on the stain, but
might fit the security guard

who came up to Dr. Pierce.

- Mrs. Matos, we were hoping
you could give us some news

about your daughter.
The security company said

- Amber was supposed to pick up
Zoe from my house on Monday.

She never showed, never called.
School starts in a week.

She wants to know
where Mommy is.

If you don't know,
why are you here?

- Your daughter's been
implicated in a murder,

along with this woman,
Connie Romano.

- That's not possible.
- Her car was at the

crime scene.
She's been identified

as the person who harassed
the victim's fiancé.

- It's just not possible.

Amber tries to be
a good mother.

She stayed in school,
she got a good job.

- We understand it's shocking.
That's why we need to find her.

Do you think she'd reach out
to Zoe's father?

- No.
He was deported back to

Guatemala three years ago.

- How about friends
or relatives?

- All our family
is in Puerto Rico.

And friends,
there's just that one.

- You've met Connie.

- Never met, but heard plenty.
Connie this, Connie that.

Every free moment,
off she went.

- Leaving you to care for Zoe.
- Amber used to take Zoe along

everywhere they went.
But more and more, it was,

"Mama, can you babysit?"
- What do you think changed?

Boyfriends, maybe?

- I never heard Amber
talk about that.

- Would you mind if we spoke
to Zoe about her outings

with Amber and Connie?

- If it helps you

Please.

That's a duck pond?

Very pretty.

- Thank you.
I love it, thanks.

I'd like to talk to you

about your mommy's friend
Connie.

What was your favorite place
you went together?

- Getting ice cream
and cookie dough bowls

after going to the doctor's.
- To the doctor's?

Were you sick?
- No.

She was a feelings doctor.
- A feelings doctor?

Let's see here.

Is that her?
- Dr. Melissa!

- So you and Mommy and Connie
went to Dr. Melissa

to talk about your feelings?
- Only Mommy.

We'd see Miss Connie after,
at the ice cream store.

- And did you meet any other
of Connie's friends?

Maybe a boy?

the boy with the eye

- With this tattoo,

what he needs

- Connie sent Amber and her

I'm gonna be next.

Please contact the police
and tell them that--

[gasps]

- You buy it?
She could've tied herself up.

- Her plastic ties
seemed a bit loose.

She could've slipped out
whenever she wanted to.

[foreboding music]

- I did not kill
Melissa Alden.

Amber Matos did.
And she killed Jared Locke.

And if somebody doesn't
find me soon,

I'm gonna be next.
Please contact the--

- Ms. Matos, I advise you
not to say anything.

- Not even to deny
what her friend said?

- It's obviously
a self-serving statement

with no probative value.
- I wouldn't be so sure.

There's no evidence to suggest
that Connie was anything

but an interested bystander
in the murder of Melissa Alden.

Amber had the murder weapon
on her when we arrested her.

- There's evidence Amber had
a prior relationship with the

shooter Jared Locke.
And evidence she was in the

shower with Jared
when he was killed.

A jury will likely find
her guilty of both murders,

while odds are Connie
will walk.

- Is that the backup plan,
Amber?

We find you at the park,
and you take the blame

for everything to save Connie?

- I need to talk to my client.

- Let me give you
something to talk about.

[sighs]

I'm sure Connie promised you
that once she got back

with Robbie,
she'd hire the best lawyers.

I'm sure she promised you
she'd use Robbie's money

to get Zoe into Woodmont.
We spoke to Robbie.

It's not gonna happen.

Connie sold you a lie.

[dramatic music]

- There's only one reason
I'm here, and it's the choices

I've made.
- [scoffs]

What about Zoe's choice?
What about her choices?

Huh?
What do you think she'd choose?

To go to a fancy school or to
have her mother to hold her?

Because if you do
what Connie wants,

you'll be out
of her life forever.

♪

- [sniffles]

- I know Conniemakes you feel special.

But she doesn't value you.She uses you.

That's her nature.She used you when she sent you

to talk to Robbie.She used you when she sent you

to the park today.

This right here,your daughter.

This is all that matters.

- It was me,
I did everything.

[sniffles]
It was me.

- Between the video
and Amber's statement,

Connie could hang the jury.
With a half-decent lawyer,

she can cut herself
a pretty sweet deal.

- While Amber does life
for two murders.

It's wrong.
- She thinks she's giving

her child a chance
at a better life.

- Connie's lucky she found
a weak person to even

take the fall.
- Psychopaths don't just prey

on the weak.
Connie gave Amber what every

human being wants--
a connection.

Sense of belonging.
It's very powerful.

Amber probably thinks the day
she met Connie was the second

best day of her life, and
Connie won't let her forget it.

She needs a sycophant
to control, to manipulate.

[cell phone buzzes]

Otherwise her outsized sense
of self would crumble.

- The Monmouth County DA's
office started the extradition

process against
Connie and Amber.

- They're gonna have
a mess on their hands.

- Dig up all you can
on Connie's father,

the one that abandoned her
when she was a kid.

We can't do it.
We can't just kick the can

down the road.

We have to sort this out now.
We have to try.

First, let me say how
relieved we are

we got to you in time.
It must've been hell.

- I'm just glad that
someone finally heard me.

- You have our full support.
Before we go on,

we heard you didn't
want a lawyer.

- I don't need one.
I'm the victim here.

- Well, you're certainly
intelligent enough to know

if you'd need one or not.
So, no lawyer?

- No lawyer.
- Okay.

- After all you've been
through, is there anyone we can

call for you?
A friend?

- I heard what Robbie did,
what he said on my behalf.

I'd like to see him.

- Oh, well, nobody told you?

- Yes, I know it was you
behind the interview.

But I could tell--
what he said, he meant.

- No, no, no, no.
We scripted the whole thing.

Had to force Robbie
to do it, actually.

Truth is, he said he wants
to stay as far away from you

as possible.
- He's just scared.

[laughs]
I'm sure he'll get over it.

- You say that because he had
sex with you right before

Melissa died?
Yeah, he told us

he felt sorry for you.
Pity sex is what he called it.

- Pity sex?
- Mm.

- Yeah.
- Pity sex.

- Maybe we could call
somebody else.

Not your mother, we know
there are complications there,

but maybe your dad.

- I'm sorry, who?
- Your father, Mateo.

Took us a while to find him.
He shortened his last name,

anglicized his first.
He goes by the name...

- Matt Roman.
- Matt Roman.

We had to use his social
to find him.

It's a nice looking family.
His second family.

[quiet dramatic music]

Is that the first time
you've seen his page?

♪

- I never looked for it.

- No, of course, there's...

nothing of interest
to you here.

It's just him and his wife
and his kids--

beautiful kids.
Not one picture of you, though.

Didn't your mother send him
pictures of you growing up?

How old were you
when he abandoned you?

- Eight.
- Eight years old.

So he really knew
who he was leaving.

Were you at home when he left?
You watch him drive away?

- [scoffs]

I stopped caring
a long time ago.

- Yeah, I used to tell
myself the same thing.

My dad's a real bastard too.
[sighs]

You try to kill off
those feelings, but you can't.

It's kinda like when Robbie
tried to go to Hawaii,

and you did everything
you could to stop him.

- I told you.
That was all Amber.

- I wouldn't rely
too much on Amber.

Once she hears no one's paying
for her daughter's school,

she'll wise up.

- We spoke to your father.

Told him his daughter
was in trouble.

He was in a total panic.
What father wouldn't be?

But he thought we were
talking about Sara,

your stepsister
who's away at college.

- And when we told him
it was you in trouble,

he couldn't wait
to get off the phone.

- He told us he had
nothing to do with you.

But you and I both know he had
everything to do with you.

Everything to do
with your pain,

everything to do
with your anger.

I look at this picture...

At this piece of crap father...

And I think to myself I would
do anything I could to wipe

that self-satisfied smile
off his face.

Hmm?

Wouldn't you like to do that?
I would.

It's not fair that he's gonna
go on living his life

without anybody knowing
the chaos he left behind.

You think his wife, his kids
know that he left you

and your mother to struggle?
You think they know that

everything you did was
because he made you do it?

He made you.
- Shut up, shut up,

and get the hell
out of my head.

- It's not me in your head.

It's your father in your head.

Is that whose face you sawwhen you crushed Melissa's?

Come on, Connie.Put the blood on his hands.

Where it belongs.
- [sniffles]

Melissa died quick.

He doesn't deserve
that much mercy.

If it was him instead of her,
I would've taken my time.

You can tell him that
when you talk to him.

I'm his daughter.
I'm his daughter.

And this is what I did.

And he should feel ashamed
for hurting me.

- We got everything on tape.
- Now Jersey can have her.

- Can you send me the number
for that school?

Maybe there's a program Amber's
daughter can qualify for.

She had nothing to do
with any of this.

Maybe she can have
a soft landing.

[brush dabbing on wood]

- Hey, Dad.
- Hi, sweetie.

- I'm, uh, I'm almost
finished with the bat box.

- Looks good.

[wood block scraping]

Hey, did you get the texts
I sent you about that boy?

- Uh-huh.
But I worked it out.

I told Ross I didn't want
to play with him anymore.

And then he apologized.

He said he felt bad
about the hawk.

- Well, that's good.
I thought when you told me

about it, you wanted
my help resolving it.

- No, I was just upset.

But thanks for listening.
- Sure.

[gentle music]

Anytime.

- Hot chocolate helped too.
