Happy Family (S03E09)

Paula (Angelica Torn) and Russell (Dennis Rees) Connors, soon to be divorced, are in the middle of a major argument. She suspects him of cheating and is going berserk, thinking he might bring one of his girlfriends to their children's recital that evening. Paula and Russell are very wealthy and live in separate luxurious Upper East Side residences. Their children, 14-year-old Jason (Reiley McClendon) and 11-year-old Sam, live with their full time nanny, Helen Reynolds (Anna Katarina), and their mother. The night of their big recital, everyone is there, including their aunt and uncle, Ralph (Josh Pais) and Brenda (Camilla Scott) Friedman, and Paula's boyfriend, Eddie Malloy (Zach Galligan). But Russell never shows up because he's been beaten to death with a hockey stick. Eddie, who arrived late for the recital, is the first suspect. Goren (Vincent D'Onofrio) and Bishop (Samantha Buck) find his shirt with Russell's blood and the hockey stick in the trash between Russell's apartment and Beatrice Hall (the location of the recital). But Eddie says he has an alibi, that he was with another girlfriend, and it checks out. (iTunes)
