Ep 8. Eye for an Eye

In the eighth episode of Murder for Hire season 1, titled Eye for an Eye, viewers are introduced to a shocking and twisted murder-for-hire plot. The episode centers around the victim, Kim, a wealthy businesswoman who becomes the target of a hitman hired by her own daughter, Mary.

Mary is an addict who has been in and out of rehab and is desperate for money to support her drug habit. She talks to a friend, who introduces her to a man named Jack who claims to be a hitman. Mary agrees to pay him $10,000 to kill her mother and steal her expensive jewelry.

The hit is planned for a night when Kim is alone in her home. Jack enters the house and confronts Kim, demanding her jewelry. When she refuses to cooperate, he shoots her multiple times and flees the scene.

The police investigation into the murder quickly turns towards Mary, who becomes the prime suspect. During questioning, Mary claims to have no knowledge of the hitman and insists that she had nothing to do with her mother's death.

However, as the investigation progresses, the police uncover a web of lies and deceit designed to cover up Mary's involvement in the murder-for-hire plot. With mounting evidence against her, Mary eventually confesses to her involvement in the murder and is charged with first-degree murder.

The episode highlights the devastating consequences of greed and addiction, as Mary's drug abuse and desire for money ultimately lead her to plan and carry out the murder of her own mother. It also serves as a warning to would-be criminals that hiring someone to commit murder is not a solution to their problems, and that they will ultimately face justice for their actions. Overall, Eye for an Eye is a gripping and emotional episode that will leave viewers on the edge of their seats.
