The affair

Matlock is hired by Charlene's former boyfriend's mother to defend a maid who's accused of killing her husband. The reason she's doing is because her husband was a philanderer and the maid was just another notch on his bed post. It seems a difficult case especially with the maid refusing to talk. Matlock naturally focuses on the family. A watchable entry that has some neat twist and turn, though some times it leans towards an average side.
