Murder, She Wrote: Jessica Behind Bars Rewatch

November 29, 2014 11:57 AM - Season 2, Episode 9

Jessica substitutes for a sick friend who is teaching a creative writing course at a women's prison where he new warden, Elizabeth Gates, has been trying to improve conditions but has had little success thus far. The Warden has been in a battle with the prison physician, Dr. Irene Matthews, who is threatening to reveal information that could harm the Warden's electoral ambitions. When Dr. Matthews is found dead, the evidence points to Mary Stramm, one of the inmates who showed promise in the creative writing class. The prisoners revolt, and Jessica is taken hostage. Can she solve the murder before more people die?

You're doing murder she wrote? Awesome! I'm out of town for a couple weeks but I'll try to take part when I get back.

Catching up to you, flt!

I loved:

- Lily Munster
- Jan Brady looking so tough with her 80s aerobic teacher hair (I love Eve Plumb and wish she'd be on more things)
- Mary, who we last saw in S1 when Jessica went to Washington
- Carol from Maude / Ruthie from Carnivale with a shotgun
