The killer: Damian Cutter. The victim: Alicia Barclay. Her dead body is found washed up on the beach one morning. Although Betty is able to determine that Alicia did die from drowning, Betty also believes that Alicia was unconscious when she entered the water based on her sustaining two head wounds which were made with a combined sharp and blunt object, not consistent with something like a sail boom. The Homicide detectives discover that Alicia, who was still wearing a cocktail dress, was on a yacht party the previous night, that party which she organized with Meredith Taylor, the two being the wives of Peter Barclay and Kurt Taylor respectively, the two men who had just purchased the multimillion dollar yacht and who are business partners in a lucrative online gaming venture. Whoever the killer, the detectives believe that Alicia never made it off the yacht from the party conscious. They discover an interesting web of one-on-one relationships between the four of Alicia, Peter, Meredith and Kurt, which implicates each of the three still alive as Alicia's possible killer at various times during the investigation. They will have to dig deeper into Peter, Kurt and Meredith's past and to discover the nature of alibis of the three, specifically concerning a Cal Higgs, who worked the party for the catering company, to find the real killer and his motive. Meanwhile, Angie is bothered by what she learns is the active rumor mill concerning herself and Cross' past. Angie decides at least to tell Betty the primary reason why she and Cross ultimately broke up.
