Jackie get off of her what are you doing?" Hyde yelled.
"That bitch tried to kill me." Jackie yelled and began strangling the girl.
Hyde pried her off the young woman.
"No, you have to be mistaken. Mimi would never hurt anybody." Phillip said.
"No, Mimi can't be the one who attacked you. Mimi would never hurt anybody. I've known her for years." Phillip said.
"Your friend Mimi is a psychotic bitch." Jackie said.
Mimi stood there in complete shock. Why would anyone accuse her of murder she thought to herself?
"I don't know what you're talking about. I don't even know you." Mimi said.
"Steven don't believe a word she says. Hurry up and arrest her." Jackie said.
"What...no wait...I never attacked her and I'm not the killer I swear I'm not." Mimi began to cry." Mimi said.
"Well, Steven what are you waiting for arrest the bitch." Jackie yelled.
"Jackie I can't go around arresting people you claimed attacked you." Hyde said.
"What?...sure you can. Now arrest her." Jackie demanded.
"Jackie I can't; I'm sorry but..."
"Fine then if you won't do something about it then I will." Jackie said.
Jackie walked up to a shaken Mimi and slapped her across the face.
"Jackie what the hell are you doing?" Hyde asked her.
"What does it look like I'm doing?" Jackie asked him.
"Jackie I can't arrest her for murder but I can arrest you for assault." Hyde said to her.
"What you got to be kidding me. Look at her. She's got black hair and look at her face. It's all banged up worse than mine. What more proof do you need?" Jackie asked him.
"Well first I have to ask her some question before I can jump to any conclusions and then I have to gather evidence and get a warrant." Hyde said.
"Okay first of all, I just dyed my hair today and second of all I got in a fight; Will Brady, Sami's son. He totally punched me a couple of times and scratched up my face." Mimi said to them.
"Yeah right that's such a likely story." Jackie yelled.
"Actually it's not. Will has done this before." Phillip said.
"He's beaten you up before?" Hyde asked her.
"Yes he has." Mimi said.
"What have the police done about it in the past?" Hyde asked her.
"Apologized; Roman Brady is his grandfather. He wouldn't put his own grandson in jail. He says that if Sami is found guilty of the murders that she will be punished to the full extent of the law but I don't believe it. Roman Brady treated her differently then the rest of the suspects." Mimi said.
"Now I don't know who to see first Sami or John." Hyde said to Jackie.
"Let's go see the girl beater first." Jackie said.
"So am I suspect or not?" Mimi asked him.
"No you're not but I'm going to need an alibi from you." He said to her.
"Yes sir." She replied.
Sami was making breakfast for Will when she heard loud knocking at her door. She stopped cooking and went over to the door. When she answered it, she was surprised to the detective at the door.
"Ms. Brady, my name is Detective Hyde. I have some questions to ask you." Hyde said to her.
"Well could it wait. I making my son breakfast right now." Sami said.
"No it really cant' wait. I really need t ask you these questions and I also need to arrest your son for assault." Hyde said to her.
"For what? He's done nothing wrong." Sami said.
"He beat-up Mimi." Hyde said.
"No he didn't. Listen Will is going through a tough time right now. Today's his sixteenth birthday. Maybe we could talk about this some other time." Sami said.
"No we can't. You see it worries me that a fifteen-year-old boy goes around beating up girls. Plus I want to talk to you about the case." Hyde said to her.
"What about the case Mr. Hyde.?" Sami asked.
"I just wanted to let you know that we cleared all the suspects' names except for two. Can you guess who the last two are?" Hyde asked her.
"No I can't guess who could be on that list. Who are they?" She asked him.
"You and Kate Roberts." Hyde said to her.
"Wait a second, why am I still on the list?" Sami asked him.
"Well, my wife was attacked last night and guess what? She was able to identify the killer as a woman. So Sami where were you last night?" Hyde asked her.
"I was here the whole entire time. I was waiting for Will to come home. You can ask him yourself." Sami said.
"Oh don't worry I'll be talking to your son. So tell me what happened the last time Will beat Mimi up. Why did he get off with a warning by Roman and how come there's no record of it happening? Didn't he get arrested?" Hyde asked her.
"No, he didn't get arrested. Mimi was making up those lies. She's a bitch and she deserved what happened to her." Sami said.
"Why's she a bitch? After all, she's the one that was viciously attacked." Hyde said.
"She's the one that's spitting out lies about my son. I never have believed that he actually laid a hand on her. It makes want to just..."
"Kill her; is that what you were going to say?" He asked her.
Sami stood there in silence. Hyde looked at her. He waited for her to answer him. Will came out of his room. He looked at his mother and then back at Hyde. He grabbed his book bag and headed for the door.
"Happy Birthday Will." Sami said.
"Yeah whatever. So who's this? Your new boyfriend." Will asked.
"Um...no of course not sweetie. This is the new detective." Sami said.
"So Will where were you last night?" Hyde asked him.
"No where really. Just hanging out with some friends." Will said to him.
"Doing what?" He asked.
"Hanging out like I said." Will said.
"Did you happen to see Mimi Lockhart last night?" Hyde asked.
Will realized what this whole little session was about. That little bitch told. She told him everything. There was no way he was going to jail because of her; no way.
"No, I didn't see her last night. Why are you asking me if I saw her?" Will asked.
"Well I ran into Ms. Lockhart and she told me that you had beaten her up. In fact, she told me that you've done it before." He stated.
"Mimi's nothing but a liar. She have to be if she's hanging out with Rex. You know she's also stupid as well. I mean Rex broke-up with her a few weeks ago and you think that she would have taken the hint; but, she didn't." Will said.
"You sound kind of jealous of Rex. Do you got a thing for Mimi?" He asked him.
"No, I don't. I could care less about her." He said.
"Doesn't sound like it." He said.
"Well I don't. Now if you don't mind I have to get to school." Will said.
Will opened the door and left. Hyde watched him leave and felt as though something was wrong.
Jackie sat in the car waiting for Hyde to return. She looked out the window and noticed a young woman walking up the street. She had long black and dark blue eyes. She had this evil way about her. Maybe it seemed like she was evil because of her eyes. She kept on walking up the street and stopped outside of Sami's apartment building. She didn't notice Jackie; but, then she turned around. She looked at Jackie. Her stare was cold and intimidating. She began walking up to the car. Jackie began to feel nervous and she locked the car doors as fastly as she could.
"Hi, how are you?' She asked.
"I'm...fine...how are you?" Jackie asked.
"Great. It's such a lovely day, isn't it?" She asked again.
"Yes it is." Jackie said.
"You must be new to Salem. I have never seen you before." She said.
"Yes...I am." She said.
"Well, I hope you enjoy your stay in Salem. It should be a scream." She said with a smile.
"What do you mean it should be a scream?" Jackie asked nervously.
"It's just figure of speech. Well, I hope you have a great day. I hope to see you around soon." She said.
The young woman took one more look at Jackie and smiled. Oh this was going to be fun to be fun she thought to herself.
