Your baby is fine. The doctors checked him out and he's fine.
You'll see him soon.
Now, Mrs. Baldwin, please. Tell me again.
Start from the beginning.
What happened before the motorist found you and your baby in the middle of the road.
When...
When I got home... He... He was on the phone.

I didn't talk to her, but... but-but I...

Okay.
It was my mistress.
It was my bookie. It was my male lover.
It was the FBI. It was the Reader's Digest Book Club.
Take your pick.
The fact of the matter is, June.
You're a jealous, paranoid nag.
And trying to live with a bipolar woman
is enough to make any man nuts.
You know, I promised myself that I would give you one more chance,
for the sake of Sammy, to be a husband
and a father, to be a man. That is it, Tony!
- Hey! Where you going, eh? - Oh! To get Sammy.
Oh, yeah?
You can go. I'll even help you pack.

You're a lawyer, Tony. You should know that battered wives
generally get custody of their children.

he went into Sammy's room so I couldn't hear.

I never approved.
You thought it was none of your business. I understand.
I needed the job.
Did you ever meet any of them?
No. I just made the reservations and paid the credit card bills.
You never mentioned any of this to the police. Why?
- I was afraid. - Of what?
- Of getting involved. - But you were involved!
I figured that's why you killed him, all the women.
I thought if I told the police, it would make things worse for you.

Um, I will let you two get back to work,

Okay. So... so that was it?
You... you went out with him a few times
and then it ended 6 months before he died?
It was a terrible time for me, June.
And I was doing drugs. I'd attempted suicide.
I was a mess.
- Tony would listen to me. - And, and, and...
During these nights, would you,
would you always go to the same place for, for, for drinks or dinner?
Not always.
But we went to a restaurant in the suburbs a couple of times.
Um... Riverside Heights maybe?
I can't remember but Tony was real friendly with the bartender.
If you come back tomorrow, we could go and try to find the place.
Okay. But, er... the bartender, what was his name?
Craig. Or no, I think it was Greg.
Um, why is that important?
Because if I can find out who else Tony was sleeping with,
then maybe I can find out who killed him.
A jilted lover, uh, a, a jealous husband.
It's-it's a starting point.
So who, who, who did he sleep with after you?
I don't know. He kind of kept that information from me.
Look. I really need to go.
- No... 5 more minutes. - No. I can't.
I'm sorry. I really need this job.

So, Karen, tomorrow?
Yeah, 10. That's fine.

I don't think any prison is a country club.

The nature of the 3rd crime should be considered.
Well, no felony is unimportant, June, but for the law to work,
there can't be exceptions.
- You couldn't build enough prisons. - I disagree.
Most crimes are committed by a small number of habitual criminals.
Lock them up, crime rate goes down.
Exactly. Numbers don't lie.
Habitual criminals, they don't belong with the rest of us.
It's as simple as that.
What do you think, Maggie?
Well, the way I look at it. If you already have 2 felonies on your record,
chances are you've committed many more and gotten away with them.
So no matter what the 3rd one is,
you deserve to be behind bars.

Why are you so paranoid?! Don't worry, Jason. I won't kill you.
Very funny.
Trust me. I'll be ready to move out soon.

Junie... I'm glad you brought this up because
Jason and I are a little worried

Maybe it's just a combination of things:
getting out of jail and readjusting,

Sammy coming home soon, Karen's death, everything.

Well, I spent the last 3 days trying to find this bar in Riverside Heights.
The one where the bartender was chummy with Tony. Yeah?
After going on a bunch of wild goose chases, I finally found it.
The name was changed to Morgan's Pub a few years ago.
Anyway, one of the waitresses there remembers Tony
- and the bartender named Greg. - Okay.
Long story short, Greg was fired,
turns out he's working over at the Mayfair Theatre.
I called over there and sure enough he's the assistant manager.
Oh, that's terrific news.

He told you that he killed Jason and framed me

things that he stole from the house while he was working in the yard.
