Dead to Me Season 1 Recap

Jen Harding is a real estate agent who recently lost her husband in a violent accident. This has caused her a lot of emotional trouble. She meets Judy Hale, a woman who says she lost her fiance, at a grief support group.

They become friends almost right away, and it’s clear that Judy may be the only person with whom Jen can relax and be herself. But when Jen discovers that Judy’s fiance is still alive, it throws a wrench in their growing friendship.

Jen is very angry and goes right up to Judy. She doesn’t want Judy to be in the support group anymore, but the other people wish for Judy to be able to say why. She says that she and her fiance broke up because, after five miscarriages, they realised that she couldn’t give him children. The group decides that Judy has good reason to be sad, but Jen is still not on board. Later, she goes to Judy’s home and place of work, a nursing home, to see her.

That night, they go out together, and Jen tells her that she has been looking into her husband’s death on her own and is looking for cars with dents. Later, Judy looks at her car, which has a pattern, in the garage. She now understands her situation and invites Judy to move into her guest house.

Jen discovers her husband has been cheating on her with someone else. When she and her two friends run into her at a bar, they find out that he has been pretending to be a widower so he can be with her. Jen’s heartbreak keeps getting worse, so she and Judy go to a retreat, where Judy meets a man named Nick.

He turns out to be an officer who looks into hit-and-run cases, which is terrible news. As Jen and Judy’s friendship grows, Judy briefly gets back together with Steve. This makes Judy think she’s pregnant. Nick doesn’t like it when she breaks up with him. But it turns out that Judy is not pregnant and will never be able to have kids.

Jen’s husband’s death is still being looked into, and Shandy, a girl from the neighbourhood who kept a piece of the accident site as a souvenir, provides a new lead. Jen thinks that since it’s a piece of a Mustang, it must have been the car that killed her husband.

When Judy finds out about this, she freaks out. She runs into Steve, who tells her he has completely taken the car apart. But it’s not as easy as it looks. Judy finds out that Jen blames herself for her husband’s death because they had a big fight that made him storm out of the house and get hit by a car.

Judy admits she did it because she can’t take the guilt any longer. Jen is surprised and tells her to go. She puts up security cameras and burns all of Judy’s things the next day. She goes to the police and tells them what she found, but they already know because one of Steve’s paintings of Judy was in a place where the crime happened. They tell her that Steve is being investigated for fraud, so they can’t arrest her.

During this time, Judy takes all the money out of the account she and Steve share to give to Jen. Furious about this, he goes to Jen’s house to find her. When pushed, he admits that he was the one who made Judy away from the accident scene.

Season 1 of “Dead to Me” ends with both women looking at Steve’s body floating in the pool. Jen ends up shooting him when he starts acting like a threat. She calls Judy right away, who had just tried to kill herself.
