Niki admits that on the night of Kousta's murder she was indeed with Makis, who, under the influence of drugs, killed Kousta, but she denies any involvement of her own. Charitos orders Niki's arrest, but she is certain she will be acquitted. Charitos leaves with Elena for Kousta's villa. There they find Makis, who confirms Niki's testimony and also describes how he got rid of Kalia when he feared she would talk to Charitos, and that he killed Loukia Karamitri to take revenge on her for abandoning her children and maintaining financial dealings with her ex-husband.
