Maggie Earl: [after Jessica exposes her as the murderer] You're very clever, Mrs. Fletcher.
Jessica Fletcher: Merely logical. You're the clever one, Maggie. Taking advantage of your father's plan, actually confessing to shooting him, knowing full well that the police investigation would exonerate you.
Maggie Earl: I hated him for what he did to me. My whole life was spent catering to that man, Mrs. Fletcher. Keeping the peace, running his home, and for what? Love? Appreciation? The only one that got any real love was Nan. And, yes, I hate her too. He should have loved me. I'm the one who gave him everything.
