Stupidity: Amazing how people on this show, like The Accused here and in the earlier episode "The Chef", are leaving their doors unlocked or no explanations given as to how the actual killer planted the evidence.
Matlock (1986)
1 stupidity in season 2
Starring: Andy Griffith, Clarence Gilyard Jr., Julie Sommars, Nancy Stafford
Continuity mistake: Matlock is inside a jail cell, speaking to a man who has been accused of murder. In an outdoor scene, someone throws a raw egg at the window as Matlock looks out. Inside the cell, as Matlock turns away from the window, the splattered egg has vanished.
Trivia: Andy Griffith was the only actor to appear in all 195 episodes of the series.
Question: Why did Suzanne Cullen lie to Michelle about her not being at Terry Maslin's house the day and night before he was killed when she did?





Answer: If it was ever found out that she was at Terry's house before he was killed, there's a possibility that a lot of people would have begun to suspect her of murdering Terry. By claiming that she wasn't, she was hoping that people wouldn't accuse her of the murder.
