What really bothered me was that Eric said he "panicked" when confronted with Carl's body and MB's apparent guilt and that was why he tossed the guy and dumped Carl's body. Shocked and surprised that she would have gone so far as to kill her husband rather than divorce him? I would think yes. Was he afraid that if he refused to help her she would say that he had killed Carl in a fit of jealous rage? It would be his word against hers.As I recall, Eric said he did what he did because he "panicked" and because he loved Mary Beth -- or thought he did. Obviously, this was before he found out about "Don Bellamy" from Teterboro. I don't think he was worried about Mary Beth accusing him.
What I thought was odd was that he "panicked" in the first place. Cops are trained to be able to handle all kinds of situations. Of course, you don't expect to walk in and find your partner killed by his wife! What would she have done if he had just walked out and said it was up to her to dispose of the body and evidence? Not call it in, just walk away? Blinded by love he wouldn't have. He would have believed anything she told him, even up to the point that it was self-defense. Proves you never know someone as well as you think you do. Makes you wonder how Carl and Mary Beth got together in the first place.
And Carl...you? dumped? Never in a million years!
