Fatal Attraction is inching toward uncovering the death of Alex (Lizzy Caplan). As that is happening, Dan (Joshua Jackson) is doing everything he can to prove his innocence while trying to repair the relationship with his daughter. Here is everything that went down in Fatal Attraction Season 1, Episode 5.
- We see what happened between Alex and Beth’s mother, Sophie. It all started with Alex bringing back the family dog and Sophie being thankful. After asking her to come inside for coffee, it all leads to Sophie falling into the pool and Alex not helping her, causing her to drown.
- Dan comes clean to Beth about cheating on her. She doesn’t take it well and says this is probably the end of the road for her and him.
- With things falling apart, Dan asks Mike for answers on his next move.
- After forgetting his keys, Dan goes upstairs and sees Alex, who took his keys. She tells him that she understands now and not to worry.
- Upon getting back into her car, we see that Alex has a pregnancy test in her car.
- Dan meets with Gabriel, who is the person that filed a complaint against Alex. However, he has no urge to help Dan clear his name.
- Someone filed a complaint against Dan, and his boss told him to stay away from the office until they cleared his name.
- Present day Dan and Ellen sit down to have a drink together. Ellen asks Dan what made him do it (the cheating). He tries to explain, but as a psychology major, he asks her opinion. How she breaks it down is a bit of a shock to her father.
- After meeting with Alex, the investigator cleared Dan of any wrongdoing.
- A fire on a job site forced Beth to head to the hospital. Dan says the neighbor will take care of Ellen, but after getting a call, saying she didn’t show up, Dan freaks out.
- Dan called Mike, and he found Ellen wandering down the street. Dan confronts her, asking who took her, but Beth pulls her away.
- An angry Dan visits Alex and snaps at her throwing her to the ground. She attempts to run from him, but he powers over her and grabs her by the throat. Before he leaves, he tells her he will be going to the FBI, and if she wants to die, she better hurry up, and she’d have to do it herself.
- The episode ends with us seeing blood on the floor inside her apartment.
