“Evans, I could quite kill you.”
The show is really
hitting its stride in regards to the noose ever so tightening around Roger’s
neck and Burke causing havoc to the hidden secret that put him in prison 10
years ago. Bill Malloy is fed up with what Burke is doing to Elizabeth’s
nerves, his possible damage to her company and livelihood, as well as, the
probable harm that would befall her family. So Malloy promises Elizabeth to get
Burke out of her hair and he proposes to Devlin that if he will cease and
desist then he will do everything in his power to clear the man’s name. This is
*not* good news for Roger who has used every psychological tactic in his
arsenal to frighten Sam. This episode also has Burke, in one singular sitting,
rattling Sam to the point that he starts taking to the bottle, his nerves once
again rattled. Poor Sam has tried, Lord knows he has tried, to get out of the
portrait painting of Burke Devlin, but it has done no good. So Roger confronts
him at home, right before Burke pulls in the drive for his first day, and hides
in a bedroom to listen on as the sitting takes place. Soon after, Devlin gone
(he does pry into how close Sam was to Roger before and during his trial), Sam
tells Roger he has a letter written, detailing their responsibility in Burke’s
wrongful conviction! Even worse for Roger, Malloy stumbles upon his argument
with Sam—some interesting developments ahead, and Roger is really starting to
become trapped with few exits remaining.
