Why Women Kill

With dreams of status and glamour, Alma Fillcot (Allison Tolman) hopes to fill a recently vacated seat in her local Garden Club, led by the intimidating Rita Castillo (Lana Parrilla).

A shaken Alma investigates Bertram’s disturbing collection of “souvenirs”, determined not to let this discovery complicate her Garden Club aspirations. Meanwhile, Rita is still suspicious of Scooter’s devotion and is further aggravated by the arrival of Catherine, her ailing husband’s daughter.

Alma and Bertram devise a plan to bury a potential setback.

After Alma is tipped off that the Garden Club will make a surprise visit to her home, she persuades Bertram to help her prepare despite the police investigation of their missing neighbor next door.

Alma learns how cruel a wounded Rita can be, but quickly realizes she can use the situation to her advantage.

Alma takes matters into her own hands after persuading Bertram to ease Carlo's suffering.

Rita's elation is short-lived when Catherine questions her innocence.

As Alma celebrates finally being admitted into the Garden Club, Bertram mourns the loss of the old Alma.

Three weeks have passed and Alma, now very comfortable with her position in the Garden Club, decides to run for the vacated presidency.

In order to protect her glory, notoriety, and newly glamorous life, Alma concocts a desperate and dramatic scheme after Vern’s investigation leads to his new in-laws.
