- So, Dr. Farzan,

- Well, it looks like

the victim died
of an epidural hematoma

due to a blow to the head

- She was attacked
in the slide?

- I don't think so.

of the slide,

it's my belief that
the victim was struck elsewhere

- Around 10:00 p.m.

to be any CCTV here.

- What happened with Rosa?

- I'm a member of the 90049
Parents Facebook group.

That's the Brentwood zip code.
Six months ago,

I see a post from
a concerned mother describing

a horrific event at the library

where an unattended child
wandered out of the library

and almost into the street.

When I read the description
of the child,

I realized it was Ward.
- It was terrifying.

- That is a nightmare.
What did you do?

- We asked Rosa about it
and she ultimately admitted it.

We had no choice
but to let her go.

- But what does
this have to do with Tara?

- We hired Tara,
and everything was going great.

Ward loved her.

- But then we see another post
in the Parents group,

this time about Tara.

And this time
from several mothers all saying

that Tara was endangering Ward.

- We debated
whether to believe it.

- The post about Rosa was true.
- But we talked to both

Ward and Tara and determined
that the accusations against

Tara had to be made up.

Ward lit up around Tara in a way
that he never did with Rosa,

and Tara seemed to be taking
excellent care of Ward.

- I couldn't let it go.
I'm sorry.

- What did this P.I. even find?

- Nothing.

- Can we see these negative
posts about Tara, please?

- Sure. I took screen grabs
of everything.

- Here you go.

- This "Carina" gal seems to be
all up in your business.

- Yeah, well, Carina is the one

who alerted us to Rosa's
misconduct.

- Yeah, and then it looks
like she turns on Tara.

- Did you reach out to Carina?
- I messaged her,

but she said she didn't have
any more information.

- If you'll excuse me,
I got to stand up.

These pants only have about
a 10-minute sitting time limit

- So, Jeff, you were totally
confident

in Tara's care of Ward?

- Completely. She was wonderful.

Where did you even find
this guy?

- The Internet.

- I can't believe
you even hired a P.I.

- Well, my guess is he wanted
eyes and ears on the outside

since you guys are all covered
on nanny cams in here.

- What?! Nanny cams?

- I used to rely
on a very kind,

but very senior gentleman
to watch my kids.

And I wanted to make sure

that he wasn't literally
falling asleep on the job.

So I looked into
my surveillance options.

You've got the nanny cam clock,
tissue box,

which I found confusing.

Uh, the nanny cam fake toolbox.

I couldn't afford any of them,

The nannies!

They were in that group
under fake accounts.

They bullied Carina off of
Facebook when she came for Rosa.

And then once Tara was hired,

they scraped her old profile
and made a new one.

and other "concerned parents"

Spice Girl missing.

Sporty Spice was tucked away
in the back of the shelf

in Brett and Jeff's house.

Tara didn't want to use
that lunchbox

because the Spice Girls
stickers were the original

five nannies' thing.

- And Tara was on the outs.

- So you think
all the nannies killed Tara

because they were
mad she replaced Rosa?

- Nope. Oksana did.

- And you know this because...?

- Because of
the capitalization conventions

in the Russian language.

In the post that Carina admits
to writing about Rosa,

she capitalizes the day of the
week that the incident occurred.
- Mm-hmm.

- But in the posts that Carina
denies writing about Tara,

the days of the week
are lowercased,

which would only make sense

if you were a native
Russian speaker.

- Because in Russian you don't
capitalize days of the week.

- But even if Oksana
was bullying Tara online

using fake accounts, that
doesn't mean she killed her.

- Well, of course it does,

because of the way
she crossed herself.

You guys aren't up to date
on The Great Schism

between Eastern Orthodoxy
and Catholicism?

- Okay.
- Not totally?

[ Sighs ] Okay. In 1054, there
was a huge fight between

Western and Eastern churches
called The Great Schism.

And this resulted in a few
fundamental differences between

how each church does things.

One of those differences being
how members cross themselves.

- Okay.
Now this is ringing a bell.

- Catholics use five fingers
and they cross

forehead, chest,
left shoulder, right shoulder.

Orthodox Christians cross
themselves using three fingers,

forehead, chest,
right shoulder to left shoulder.

Now, when we were chatting
with the nannies,

I saw Oksana cross herself
in the Eastern Orthodox manner.

- How does Oksana's
religion mean she killed Tara.

- Another result
of The Great Schism

is that the two sides use
different calendars.

Catholics use
a Gregorian calendar introduced

by a pope in 1582.

Orthodox Christians
still use a Julian calendar.

Basically, it means they
celebrate the same holidays,

but certain holidays fall
on different dates,

much to the chagrin
of the little Greek girl

whose Easter Bunny comes a month

after her friends got to eat
all their Cadbury eggs.

- Mmm-mmm! I love those.
- Girl, same.

- So good.
- You can go back to work now.

- Now, do we know what religion
Tara Foley was?

- Catholic?
- Catholic! We found a rosary.

That's classic Catholic.
- Mm-hmm.

- But don't forget what I said
about the calendars.

- Oh, how could we?
- On Tara's calendar,

she had marked down a date
for the exaltation of the cross.

September 27th.

But Catholics celebrate
that on the 14th.

So she wasn't planning
to go to her church service.

- She was going to Oksana's.

- Tara had figured out
that Oksana was the one

who was bullying her,
and that explains the number

for the immigration lawyer
we found in her apartment.

- Identity fraud is a crime
that can get your visa revoked.

Tara knew that by making
fake profiles on Facebook

and pretending to be Carina,

Oksana was putting her visa
in jeopardy,

and she could be deported.
- Exactly.

Tara knew that Oksana was
going to be

at the Russian Orthodox Church
that night.

- Which is a block away
from the park.

- After the service,
Tara confronted Oksana.

Oksana freaked out
and bashed her in the head.

[ Thump, Tara groans ]

the job, but she didn't.

that Oksana would follow her.
