  • Summary

  • After a mother is murdered and her newborn Nicky kidnapped, Detectives Joe Fontana and Ed Green interrogate Frank, the drug dealer who was in her apartment that morning. But Lt. Van Buren says a witness spotted a pregnant woman fleeing the building with Nicky. The trail leads to Arlene Tarrington, a woman who'd been faking her pregnancy.

    Arlene admits while suffering from postpartum psychosis, she kidnapped the infant but didn't kill the victim. ADA Alexandra Borgia learns Arlene had offered a teen mom $50,000 for her baby, and she called Frank days before the murder. He tells the cops he's Nicky's biological father and scammed Arlene with a promise to sell his child for cash. EADA Jack McCoy must decide who he believes the actual killer is and offer a deal to the other...but does he make the right choice?

    We're talking about Law & Order season 16 episode 7 "House of Cards." Our guest is Margo Donohue from the Book vs. Movie podcast.

    Some inspiration for this episode comes from the 1988 kidnapping of Rachael Ann White.
