She is released when her lawyer secures a writ of habeas corpus. (She had obtained his birth date and social security number, and discovered that his mother was a patient in a mental institution.) During the battle of wits, Goren deduces that Wallace had been sexually abused by her father, which she emphatically denies. Goren then arranges to have Fellowes fire her, thus allowing the police to arrest Wallace for having an invalid work visa.ĭuring the interrogation, Wallace throws Goren off by confronting him with personal information about him and his relationship with his parents. (She had learned of the allergy when she ordered a Thai dish containing peanuts in the Thai language, which he doesn't speak.) By the time he is about to confess his role in Winthrop's murder, he goes into anaphylactic shock and dies.īy determining how Wallace knew that Bailey was allergic to peanuts, Goren learns of her true history: that she had been incarcerated for helping her then-boyfriend rob and murder eight men. Wallace exploits Bailey's severe allergy to peanuts in order to kill him.
This puts Christine Fellowes, a rival candidate - and Wallace's lover - at the head of the list Wallace believes Fellowes will give her permanent employment, and thus permanent U.S. By allowing the cloud of murder to hang over Sanders, Wallace taints his appointment and takes him out of the running for the chairmanship. Suspicion falls on Sanders, whom Winthrop was intending to pass over. After 10 years, time is running out on Bailey's graduate thesis, and she convinces him that killing Winthrop will pave the way for Bernard Sanders, a professor sympathetic to his situation, to become chairman. Wallace manipulates an underachieving graduate student, Mark Bailey, whom she takes as a lover, into committing the murders. It is implied that she had murdered the real Hitchens and assumed her identity. As the episode opens, Wallace is living under the alias "Elizabeth Hitchens", and has a temporary position as a literature professor at Hudson University, where she is understood as visiting from the University of Oxford. Winthrop was about to select the next Chair of the Department of American Studies. Wallace first crosses paths with Goren during the investigation of the murders of the president of Hudson University, Franklin Winthrop, and his secretary. Subsequent episodes have implied this to be true. Goren speculates that Wallace was molested by her father, thus accounting for her sociopathy. She is portrayed as an expert manipulator with a gift for rooting out every painful detail from a person's life and using it to control and/or destroy them. In this latter episode, she is murdered, and her heart used as part of an elaborate puzzle and frame to implicate Goren.
