Go To

  • Complete Monster:
    • "In the Hands of Giants" two-parter: Dr. Sean McCready is a psychiatrist who kills over a dozen children by starting fires, each time making them look like electrical accidents. His motive each time is to punish his adulterous female patients, five of which later killed themselves, something he probably caused through his sessions with them. The one point of sympathy he gets is that his own children were killed in a fire when his wife was away with her own lover, but then it turns out that he started that fire as well. He dies at the end of the episode when he unsuccessfully attempts to pull one of his victims into the fire, after the other two had escaped.
    • "Family Planning": Frances Deerborne murders her husband John's rich family, from his parents down to his younger sister, his kid brother, and the housekeeper, to ensure that he receives his inheritance. She also hired a man to rob them first, pretending to be in love with him, and killed him afterward. It is suggested that she intends to kill John later and Make It Look Like an Accident.
    • "Flight Risk": Daniel Worthington is a misogynistic Serial Rapist who specifically targets strong women who he can't dominate in any other way. Worse, he drugs his wife and daughter during a movie night so that he can leave to commit his rapes, while ensuring that they'll provide an alibi for him. The only reason he fails to get away with it is because Claudia baits him during her interrogation of him, and he forgoes his overseas trip to target her.
