Dr. Fraser, where is your husband?

He is at a medical conference.

Dr. Jonathan Fraser's employment was terminated three months ago.

A full disciplinary hearing alleged inappropriate contact with Elena Alves.

GRACE FRASER: Excuse me, I live here.

Why are you taking his hairbrush?

We need the hairbrush for DNA, for paternity.

You need to get protection for yourself.

[WHISPERS] Grace, you need to get out of here. You and Henry.

Don't be talking to nobody in here.

I should say, having read the police report,

I would be very surprised if you were innocent.

Unless, of course, he was stupid, which...

I'm figuring you're not since you cure cancer and all.

Back to me, please.

You know, I should say up front that in my experience, doctors tend to be assholes.

The reason they tend to be assholes is because they get to be. They're doctors.

My point is, you don't get to be one anymore.

I would be very grateful if you could arrange for me to see my wife.

It means a f*cked-over person, in the immediate aftermath of being f*cked over, often believes the fucker-overer to be capable of anything.

Including m*rder.

So, my question to you, um, before you got wind of the fact that he was unfaithful, your pre-f*cked-over impression of him.

Did he strike you as a person capable of committing this kind of mayhem?

If he did, do you think I'd be married to him?

My, uh, my specialty is reading people.

It's the best tool in my kit. I just...

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

I know she had a son.

A seven-year-old boy with a Wilms' tumor.

Jonathan was his doctor.

They weren't discreet.

They weren't even trying to be.

He got warnings. Didn't seem to matter.

He wanted her, and he was willing to risk everything.

Which he clearly did.

Well, he says that she wasn't well.

He says that she was obsessed with him and that she was...

I wouldn't know.

If she was the obsessive-compulsive type...

- Yeah, then, then what?
- And I, I admit,

- I'm, I'm clutching at straws here.
- Grace,

- Jonathan cultivated it.
- I... Plea...

People becoming obsessed with him? He...

He fed off that.

His patients loved him.

The parents, of course, the parents worshiped him.

He was saving their children.

He thrived on being the center of intense emotion...

In a very narcissistic and unhealthy way.

It's like he never got the God complex memo.

In fact, actually, sometimes I think

- it wasn't even about the, the patient.
- I...

It was about the emotion coming at him.

He cared about his patients. He did.

- I saw it.
- Yeah. Maybe.

- I did. He cried for them. He would...
- Yeah. Maybe.

- Yes!

And?

Crazy people do crazy things.

Are you serious?

Are you now believing that Jonathan is innocent?

I'm just open to the idea.

No. Of course not.
Don't be ridiculous. It's your move.

He said you were worried about paying for Reardon this year.

That you thought you might have to take Henry out.

I told him it would not be in Reardon's best economic interest to lose Henry.

I made a terrible, terrible mistake.

I, um, allowed myself to be, uh, persuaded that a person desperately needed me because her child was very sick, and I could help him recover.

And I let that be a reason to lose my strength of character.

I was very sorry for her, and I think that, uh, my wanting to help overwhelmed me, so...

And then, after everything, instead of being grateful for everything I'd done for her and for her son, she became unsound.

Threatening.

It got to the point where I felt she wanted to destroy us, as a family, so I went to confront her about that.

And that's it.

That's all I did.

Why did you run, if you're innocent?

Well, I ran because I...

I was scared. I, I knew how it looked.

And I was selfish.

In that moment, I was completely selfish.

I thought only about myself and what might happen to me.

He had access.

He's hiding something.

Mm-hmm.

What tells you that?

Twenty-plus years of psychological training.

[CHUCKLES]

You read his mind.

O'ROURKE: Mrs. Fraser, we have no reason to believe that Fernando Alves is a suspect.

Are there security cameras from inside the building?

Do you have video footage of people coming and going that night?

Again, we are not at liberty to disclose that.

But you're at liberty to interrogate me?

Disclosing and weaponizing every last informational nugget to, to emotionally terrorize me?

You're at liberty to approach my father?

I mean... [EXHALES]

There must be video surveillance.

Are you telling me that my husband was the only person to enter that apartment that night?

Because if that's the case, I want to know, because it will better enable me to walk away from him and never, ever look back.

Just... Just f*cking tell me.

All right. There were no security cameras in the building.

- It's an old building.
- GRACE: But on the street.

You have cameras everywhere in this city.

Yeah, there was a...

There was an active camera

- a block away from the scene.
- GRACE: And?

And?

What is it? What?

[SCOFFS]

MENDOZA: There was only one image captured that we deemed to be relevant.

GRACE: What is it?

What?

What is this?

[TAPS KEYBOARD]

GRACE: What is this?

This is you.

Near the scene of the crime, and around the time Elena Alves was m*rder*d.

I was walking. I mean, I...

- Mm.
- GRACE: This isn't...

I was walking. I take walks. I didn't...

I, I didn't even know where she lived. What...

Are, are you suggesting that I'm a suspect? I...

Fernando Alves was not near the scene that night.

The only people of relevance that we can place in the area, around the time, are you, and your husband.

MENDOZA: Exactly how well did you know Elena Alves?

♪♪

Should you do anything to further harm my daughter,

I will track you down, and I will k*ll you myself.

[TENSE MUSIC PLAYS]

HALEY FITZGERALD: You cast a spell.

Daddy's home.

I look forward to clearing my name in court and proving that I'm innocent.

Are you all planning to live like a family again?

Put up a fight.

How weak do you think I am?
