She carries the leg of lamb upstairs and sees her husband at the window. This scenario creates foreshadowing as Mary Maloney takes the leg of a lamb out of the freezer.

- The falling action, Mary pretends she didn't kill her husband so she doesn't get caught. She calls the police and tells them that she found her husband dead and they come to investigate. They do not think mary is a suspect and they search the house for a weapon, none was found.
- In the resolution, Mary insists that the police stayed for dinner. She cooked the leg of lamb and lets the police eat the leg of lamb. She does this so then they would not suspect anything. As they eat the leg of lamb in the kitchen, Mary maniacally laughs. The resolution shows dramatic irony because the murderer, Mary Maloney, is asking the police to eat the murder weapon, which is the evidence of her offense.
- HAHAHA!!!
- The weapon is probably right under our noses
