Motive (US Series)

Undertow (1x8)

:

Charles Stanwyck (John Pyper-Ferguson) was a contractor for Sunita Rand's (Neelam Khabra) father, Vijay (Raoul Bhaneja). Charles has killed Sunita's secret boyfriend, Taylor Hollis (Alex Arsenault). Vijay is the suspect since Sunita was awaiting an arranged marriage with another man and Vijay's prints were on the murder weapon. Oscar finds it interesting, though, that contractor Charles, who had been renovating a restaurant, knew Vijay's alibi. When Angie finds drywall powder on Charles's toolbox and remembers that it was also found on Hollis's body, the conspiracy motive unfolds. Charles's son Riley had been killed by his brother-in-law Greg (Todd Thomson) in a drunk-driving accident. Charles wanted revenge. He and Vijay conspired to solve each other's problems, only Vijay doesn't complete his mission to kill Greg. Charles believes Angie will understand his motives, but she doesn't.
