The Lie
There's a rapist on the lose in Knots Landing & Laura Avery is a woman with housewife blues. She can do nothing right. Richard has to tell her everything, how to cook, what to order, what to eat with red wine. She combats this by looking for love in all the wrong places like in a smokey bar where she comes face to face with the rapist but the real trouble starts when he gets caught.
"What did you come up here for?" The rapist. "So you could draw me." Laura Avery

|
|
Except for the rapist on the lose it's a leisurely-fine Knots Landing morning.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Richard tells Laura her eggs are no good. She dumps them & then makes some plans for herself. Val drops by.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Laura catches the attention of the handsome man (the rapist) in the corner who draws her picture.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At his apartment, Martin (Christopher Allport)poses her & slowly gets her to the bed where he proceeds to rape her.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
While Karen cautions daughter Diana against hitch-hiking Val again spotts Laura in her driveway.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Richard comes home to console his wife who doesn't want to talk (rightfully so). He then calls the police.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The women band together & vow to cook supper for Laura while Richard has a suspicion all is not as it appears.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Laura identifies the wrong man and Val knows it. He is then let free as the case against him is not iron clad.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Laura tries to cook supper the way Richard likes it. The neighbours feel bad for them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Lunch in one of many outside patios turns disasterous when Laura sees the face of the rapist on another man.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As the rapist is in custody Laura has a heart to heart with Val & calls police to tell them, "He's not the one."
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The gang is out to dinner together and all eyes are on Laura and Richard who is his pompus self.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We thought Laura had learned her lesson but when Richard scolds her she immediately goes on the prowl, again .
