1989 (#15) - Cassandra's betrayals and George's deadly revenge

As the months go by, George's condition gradually seems to improve, even though he is aware that he does not have long to live. His wife Cassandra is obviously by his side and caring for him, convinced that the man doesn't remember anything about his confession; however, she doesn't imagine that her husband is slowly bringing back her memories and that, therefore, he doesn't trust her at all. And being convinced that Cassandra is cheating on him, George rents a room right in front of Paul's apartment, spying from morning to night with binoculars. George's observations always seem to be disappointing, until the man's suspicions materialize: his wife Cassandra and his friend Paul, whom he has always considered as a son, are lovers. The image of the two in each other's arms throws George into a blinding rage that leads him to harbor a desire for revenge. George, thus, begins to put in place an accurate plan that must absolutely be infallible. After painstakingly filing the safety pin on his gun, George asks Paul to have it repaired; later, George himself writes a letter in which he accuses Paul of fraud, creating a series of fake invoices on which Paul allegedly made money in his surveillance work at Ra-Tech. George then skillfully staged an argument in front of an astonished Paul, so that Victor could hear them. When Paul finally returns the repaired gun to George, who thus obtains the man's fingerprints on his gun, the plan can finally be put into action. By hiring a serial killer to kill with George's gun without leaving prints, the man gets himself killed so that Paul can be blamed. It upsets Brittany to find her uncle's body in a pool of blood first. And the upset of everyone, Paul first along with two destroyed Patricia and Ernest, soon turns to disbelief when Paul is accused and arrested for fraud and put on the list of prime suspects in the investigation of George's murder. It is at this moment that Paul, should the police discover that he and Cassandra are having an affair, realizes alarmed that he could be accused of murder.

The evening goes on apparently quietly but with Paul who sees all his certainties broken inside him, unable to imagine that the woman and lover he has been seeing for months is the attractive wife of one of his dearest friends. The situation becomes even more embarrassing when George asks Paul about his love life and introduces her to his beautiful niece Brittany Norman, daughter of his sister Patricia Rawlins and her husband Ernest Norman, who seems interested in Paul. He finds it absurd how Cassandra is comfortable joking about a possible flirtation between Paul and Brittany and, at the same time, trying to get close to Paul to satisfy his desires. Convinced that Cassandra doesn't have all her marbles , Paul leaves determined to end all relations with the woman, also out of respect for his friend George. Cassandra, however, in the following weeks manages to drive Paul completely crazy, who realizes that he can not resist the temptations of Cassandra, able to literally make the man lose his head.
