In Fatal Vows season 3 episode 7 titled "Killing Time," viewers are taken on a thrilling journey through the story of John and Susan Sutton. The couple seemed to have it all – successful careers, a beautiful home, and a seemingly happy marriage. However, things were not as they appeared on the surface.
John was a control freak who preferred to have everything in his life scheduled and planned out to the last detail. His wife Susan, like many wives in such marriages, did her best to cater to his needs and keep him satisfied. But despite the façade of happiness, there was an undercurrent of tension between the couple that eventually became toxic.
John had always been the dominant one in the relationship, but his controlling behavior began to spiral out of control when he was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Susan, who was already feeling suffocated by her husband's behavior, found it even harder to cope with his worsening mood swings and outbursts. She grew more detached and started to resent John for the way he was treating her.
One day, John went out for a walk and never returned. The police searched for him everywhere, but there was no sign of the missing man. In the meantime, Susan tried to carry on with her life as best as she could. However, her façade of normalcy couldn't quite cover up the strange activities that were going on.
As the investigation progressed, the authorities took a closer look at Susan's behavior in the aftermath of John's disappearance. They soon discovered that she had been leading a double life and was involved with another man. The police started to suspect that Susan had something to do with John's disappearance – and possibly even his death.
The investigation into John's disappearance and Susan's involvement in it became increasingly complex. There were conflicting witness statements, mysterious phone calls, and even a shady business deal. The authorities had a hard time piecing together the story, but eventually, the truth came out.
As it turned out, Susan had indeed played a role in John's disappearance. But she had not acted alone. Her boyfriend, a shady businessman who had promised her a better life, had helped her plan and execute John's murder. The motive for the crime was financial gain – John had a sizeable life insurance policy that would provide ample funds for Susan and her lover to start a new life together.
In the end, justice was served, and Susan and her lover were brought to trial and sentenced to prison for their crimes. But the story of John and Susan Sutton is a cautionary tale of how even the happiest-seeming of marriages can unravel and produce the darkest of outcomes. Fatal Vows season 3 episode 7 "Killing Time" is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and murder that will leave viewers on the edge of their seats.
