Both women were political prisoners for decades. This leads them to divulge their past lives. They smoke joints and have a real laugh together. Charlie ignores this warning though and hangs out with the ‘cool’ ladies. Betty warns Charlie about Irene and Joyce, who she describes as felons and junkies. The show reverts back to before this murder took place and we find Charlie working at the retirement home as a cleaner. They replace Ben’s wristband seamlessly – it’s the perfect crime. The gang return to Mossy Oaks to find Ben’s corpse being stretchered out of the place. They perform CPR via a defibrillator, but Ben cannot be resuscitated. This triggers Ben’s wristband and the nursing home staff rush to his room. Joyce wheels Irene to a secluded part of the zoo and tasers her friend. The organizer, Betty (K Callan), invites them to the monkey show, but they have other plans. The killers head to the zoo as if nothing has happened. Irene returns to the toilets just in time. She takes his wristband and injects him with poison. Irene locks herself in the toilets and clambers up the wall to Ben’s room. Together they initiate their murderous plan just as the residents are about to leave on a zoo trip. Joyce nabs some sodium nitrate from the gardener and Irene steals some syringes.
A new resident joins the community, Ben Holmes ( House of Cards star Reed Birney), and immediately the dynamic duo want him dead.
